I think I witnessed a murder. That's
crazy.

Tonight on Simon and Simon.

Is that man dead?

Let's talk about you.

You've got a victim and you've got an
eyewitness.

Now where we come from, that's called a
murder case.

I suppose there's any way of draining
the lake without some help. I told you

leave this thing alone.

What thing, Sheriff? You got something
going on we don't know about?

Lovely little place you got here, but
we're late for our shuffleboard game

at the hotel. What is this? Is the whole
town in on this thing? It's a siren.

Oh, hello. My name's Turner, Oliver
Turner.

I'm in real estate.

I have a card right here and...

Excuse me, has my husband left a message
for me? The name is Turner.

No, ma 'am, I'm afraid not. Are you
sure? No call?

No.

Hmm.

Okay, thanks.

AJ? Hi, Mom.

I just wanted to let you know I got here
all right.

Good. I'm glad to hear it. And guess
what?

They're overbooked, so they gave me a
large suite for the same price.

Really? That's nice.

Do you think you and Rick would like to
come up for a few days? It's a shame to

waste that extra room.

Oh, well, thank you, Mom. Not for me.

I'll ask Rick, though.

Any interesting men up there yet?

Not yet, but it looks promising.

I better go now.

Okay. Well, you enjoy yourself.

Bye. Bye -bye.

I'm planning on it.

Morning. Morning.

I haven't seen that done since fourth
grade.

How would you know?

As I remember your idea of breaking in a
new book.

Use it for second base.

And by the office?

Yeah. No calls, no mail.

Looks like we got a few days off here.

Hey, tell you what. Put the boat in the
water, we'll cruise down to Baja, we'll

do a little fishing, what do you say?

Oh, not for me. This is all the vacation
I need, right here.

Got the new Michener.

Did you buy anything like that by the
town?

Mom called.

Yeah? Yeah, they gave her a suite with
two bedrooms.

Thought maybe you might want to go up
and join her.

Any guy over the age of 30 who vacations
with his mother ought to join the

Marine Corps see a shrink.

Or both.

You remember that vacation we took with
Mom and Dad when I was in the fifth

grade?

I will never forget the expression on
Dad's face when he found out I'd learned

the facts of life from that accordion
player in the lounge.

Guy had it all wrong, too.

Rick, I would love to play This Is Your
Life, but right now I want to read,

okay?

I'm leaving you alone right now. Here I
go.

AJ?

Margaritaville.

Oh, not for me, thanks.

That was a nice thought, though.

Maybe later?

Yeah, yeah, okay.

I'll just... What?

You want to go to the track? I got some
discount coupons. They're giving away

blankets today.

No, thank you.

Guess I won't go either.

Hey, Jay.

Look what I found.

This is Wanda. Wanda's a beautician. She
works out near the airport.

And this is Jolene.

Jolene is, well, she's unemployed right
now. She wants to be a waitress.

And I'm sorry, darling, I didn't catch
your name. What was that?

Trixie. Yeah, I'll bet that's right,
too.

Hello, AJ.

Hi.

Let me make us a drink. I'm famous for
my milk punch. Great.

Oh, you really gave me a workout today.

Oh, I'm afraid I'm a bit rusty.

Oh, you're very good. You play very
well.

Hello. Oh, hi, honey. Oh, Leo, this is
my son, AJ. AJ, this is Leo Morris. How

do you do? Nice to meet you. Likewise.
Excuse me.

That was your son?

Yes, my youngest.

You have more than one?

Oh, yes, two.

Excuse me.

Why did you bring the gun? You came here
to get away.

Yeah, Mom, I always bring a gun. Look, I
really have to go. I'm in a bit of a

rush, okay?

Bye -bye.

Nice to meet you.

Well, thank you.

Was that a gun?

Yes, I think so.

Well, now for the milk punch.

I appreciate you coming to me with this,
Mr. Simon. It's a very

interesting story.

And I'll keep my ear to the ground.

Keep your ear to the ground, huh?

Sheriff, if you have your ear to the
ground, when I get these developed,

going to hear an earthquake.

Well, I sure hope you're wrong.

We kind of like to keep things nice and
peaceful up here.

A thing like that could upset the fish.

You like fishing, Mr. Simon?

That depends on what's running.

Oh, you've got everything.

Trout, walleye, bass.

I don't think I've ever seen anybody
reel in a body, though.

Look, what did you say it was? A .J.,
why don't you go back and enjoy

Don't make this a busman's holiday.

It's already a little bit more than
that.

I hate to say this, Sheriff, but you're
going to have some very upset fish.

Well, look, if it'll make you any
happier, I'll take that film. We'll run

in the lab. We'll have it up this
afternoon.

If those pictures are what you say they
are, that role is evidence.

You don't want to withhold evidence.

You'll give me a call as soon as you get
them developed?

Oh, I'll tell you what I'll do.

There are pretty pictures of the lake in
here where we'll make a couple prints,

no charge.

Good for tourism.

Yeah.

Oh, one other thing.

I didn't see the boat's name clearly,
but I could see the number 76.

Ring any bells?

I'll keep it in mind though.

Okay.

You know, I hear they rent sailboats
down at the docks.

Would you like to go out on the lake
this afternoon?

Oh, I'd love it. I used to sail quite a
bit. Did you?

Good morning.

Good morning.

You look terrible.

Well, I've been up all night.

Hi, how's the backhand going?

Oh, fine, thanks.

AJ, what's going on with you?

Yeah.

You're going to think it's crazy.

Try me.

I think I witnessed a murder.

That's crazy.

What murder? Where? Who?

Are you feeling all right? Yeah, look,
Mom, I'm on to something right now,

So I'll talk to you later. I'll explain
everything, all right?

I'm sorry, sir. I've never heard of it.
You must have heard of it. It's the only

jet on the lake. Look, it's about 20
feet long.

Excuse us.

Now, A .J.?

You listen to me. Mom!

You used to act this way when you stayed
up all night before final exams. You'd

get all tensed up and then you'd break
out in one of those rations.

Now I think you should go to bed and get
some rest before you do something

foolish. Mom, there is definitely
something weird going on around here.

if everybody's in on it or... Now I mean
it.

Go to bed.

Yes, ma 'am.

Family that plays together, stays
together. I'm glad you've got so much

your youngest son, Mom. Hey, come on.
Take it easy. It's my idea. Go in there

and get yourself cleaned up. I'll take
you home. No way. I'm in the middle of a

case. You are becoming a case. Come on.
Let's get out of here. Let Mom enjoy her

vacation. Well, you've done all you can.

Staying here will be just too much of a
temptation.

When did the sheriff bring these by? Why
didn't you wake me? Well, some deputy

dropped them off. Said the sheriff
didn't need them anymore.

Thought you might want them back.

There's some beautiful shots of the
lake. Oh, yeah, I love this one. Damn,

why did I give that guy the film?

What are you talking about?

Look, I have a photograph of these two
men throwing a body out of that boat,

it's gone.

It's not here.

Dexter, did you or the boys have the
boat on the lake yesterday?

Yeah, sure.

We were trying to get that big walleye
over by the dam.

No luck, though.

Who was with you?

Well, uh, Ben, of course. He always
handles the boat. And, uh, oh, yeah,

Hank Watson.

And this Watson boy, he likes to swim?

Yeah, sure.

As a matter of fact, he took a little
dip late in the day.

Dexter, the water in that lake is about
50 degrees.

It was a short swim.

Just who took these pictures, Hardiman?

Some private detective from San Diego.

Private detective?

Yeah, up here on vacation, just asking
around.

Doesn't sound like he's on vacation to
me.

Look, I'm paying you to take care of
things like this, so do it.

I'll keep these if you don't mind. I
like pictures of my boat.

Just what the hell was going on out
there?

We found a guy in the fields.

Took care of him.

Took care of him or... Killed him?

We do whatever is necessary to protect
the crop.

I see.

I didn't bargain on anything like this.

Couldn't be helped.

Take my word for it.

All right.

You've used my money, you're on my land,
and you need my protection.

I will not tolerate another incident
like this.

Okay, okay, take it easy.

Just give us till Friday, Saturday,
we'll have the fields picked clean,

gone. No more trouble.

No more trouble.

I'll see to it.

Okay. Hey, wake up. What? Look at this.

Here we go.

14A.

17A.

Right.

Don't you get it?

I'm missing two, maybe three shots.

AJ, sometimes you take a picture, it
doesn't turn out. No, Rick. Look, you

understand. The sheriff is in on this.
Somebody has deliberately cut out two

exposures. Shouldn't you be getting home
now?

Rick, I was there.

I know what I saw.

I mean, you don't want to get home in
the middle of the night.

Come on, hey, come on, come on. I want
to talk to you about it. Yeah, fine,

yeah, okay.

Don't worry about it, Mom. I'll handle
it.

I don't suppose there's any way of
draining the lake without some help,

This was supposed to be a vacation.
Well, it still is, Mom, for you.

You go ahead and have some fun, and
we'll stay out of your way. Jeff, you

even know we're here.

So the first thing we ought to do is ask
around, see if anybody's missing.

Yep. Bye, Mom. So long.

And I just don't know what to do.

It isn't like him to disappear like
this.

If I go home, he might come back here.
But if I stay here, then maybe he would

go there.

Can you think of any reason why your
husband might have gone home suddenly?

No. I called most of our friends in San
Francisco.

Nobody's heard from him.

Did you tell the sheriff this?

Yeah, and he said that I shouldn't worry
about it.

That he was sure that Oliver would turn
up sooner or later.

Oh, that's typical.

Do you have any idea where your husband
was headed?

I don't even know if I can afford
privacy.

You don't have to afford us. This one's
on the house.

I don't know exactly where he was going.

Someplace north of town, off the main
highway, that's all he told me.

And I didn't think anything of it,
because he's in real estate.

He's always curious about property for
sale, wherever we go, even on vacation.

Got a bogey.

Let's check it out.

Key's still in it.

Yeah, maybe it's a traveling salesman
entering the common nature.

No.

Tracks are dry.

Leaves in it.

This car's been sitting here.

Hey, you two.

Howdy.

Can you read?

Yeah, as a matter of fact, I can. Is
there something you'd like me to read

you? No wise guys.

Sign up there. It says no trespassing.

Didn't say anything about no wise guys.

We're leaving. Lovely little place you
got here, but we're late for our

shuffleboard game back at the hotel, so
we're just going to take off now.

See you later.

You want to see me?

Two men were snooping around the North
Quarter this afternoon.

Dexter's people ran them off. We don't
think they saw anything.

Two men?

This detective seems to have a friend.

I told you this morning to get rid of
those people, Hardiman.

You got any suggestions as to how?

Look, you may be able to run this county
like you own it, Gable, but this is

still the state of California, the U .S.
of A. here.

Refresh my memory, Hardiman. Just how
much does the county pay you?

You know damn well how much I get paid.

No, it seems to slip my mind. I want to
hear you say it.

How much?

Twelve thousand.

Oh.

Well, how would you like to try to live
on that?

Gable Wineries?

You're sure?

Okay.

Thanks. Yeah, I know, I know. That's
another one we owe you. Thanks a

Bye -bye.

Check with the car rental agency.

They say Turner brought the car back
yesterday.

What is this? Is the whole town in on
this thing?

Let's go get a drink.

Hi, Mom.

Hi.

Uh, beer. You want anything?

No, thanks.

Janet checked with the DMV.

The boat that I saw.

Done by Gable Winery.

Very interesting.

I thought so, too.

I thought maybe we could have a little
chat.

Mr. Gable.

I've got 300 pounds of trouble coming.

Evening, Sheriff.

You were trespassing today.

No, I was fighting today. I guess we
just didn't happen to see the signs.

Sheriff, if you want a drink, you know,
maybe something tall. You've been

snooping around too much.

I told you to leave this thing alone.

What thing, Sheriff? You got something
going on we don't know about?

I'm telling the both of you to leave.

I don't think you have any right to do
that.

Oh, now, boys.

This isn't the big city. We kind of have
our own way of doing things up here.

If I tell you to get out of my county,
you're going to get out of my county.

Or you're going to jail.

You don't want me to prove that, do you?

Because, for instance, I could have your
room searched, and if a weapon turned

up, you could spend, oh, a week or so in
the lockup while I checked your

licenses. Or if I had a written
complaint that you were trespassing,

Sheriff, down the dock.

What? I think you should come see it.

don't believe that something like this
would ever happen to you.

I really want to thank you for being
here to help.

You sure you're going to be all right?

I got so much to do. I've got to pack.

And my sister will be down from San
Francisco by 2. I can help you with all

that, and I'll stay with you until your
sister comes.

Thank you, Mom.

Everything's going to be okay.

All right?

It's time to go to work.

All right, we know that the boat is
registered to a man named Gable. We

the car on Gable's property.

Now, so far, you've got a victim and
you've got an eyewitness.

Now, where we come from, that's called a
murder case.

That is what the hell do you call it?

An accidental death.

Oh.

The medical examiner says Oliver Turner
drowned.

Of course he drowned.

It just wasn't accidental.

You're trying to tell me that the guy
goes out for a drive in the countryside

and then just suddenly he happens to
decide to go for a swim in a freezing

lake with no bathing suit.

Look, I told you last night I'd have to
arrest you unless you left town.

Are you blind or stupid or both?

Or are you on the take?

Who's paying you off? Is Gable the one
who's paying you off?

Okay, that's it. All right, wait a
minute, guys. Hold on, hold on. Just

down here a minute. Now, uh...

A .J., I think the sheriff's right.
What?

Yeah, I mean, whether Turner went off a
boat or decided to take a swim doesn't

really matter. It's right there in the
report. It's an accident.

There's no charges. There's no case.

Let's do what the man says and make some
tracks out of here.

Come on. Rick. Come on.

Look, I'm sorry we were so much trouble
to you. You've got a real nice little

situation here.

Why in the hell did you drag me out of
there?

Hey, take it easy. That cracker was
about to put us in a safe deposit box.

Besides, I got an idea.

What? Jerry Reiner.

Let's get a second opinion on the
autopsy.

It's not a bad idea.

Did you ever know me to have a bad idea?

Don't answer that.

You want me to what?

How are we going to get the body?

We're going to what?

I don't believe this.

Dealer Brothers Mortuary, San Francisco.

We're here for Oliver Turner.

Well, there must be some mistake.

Mistake? Did you call ahead and clear
this with Mr. Adcock, the administrator?

Because he's gone for the day and I
can't possibly... It's entirely routine.

Anyone can sign for the hospital, even
you.

I won't release the body.

That's Mr.

Adcock's responsibility.

You'll have to come back tomorrow.

Tomorrow, my dear lady.

The funeral is scheduled for 7 o 'clock
tomorrow morning in Golden Gate Park.

The departed loved Sunrise in the Park.

600 mourners will be there. A caterer in
a classical string quartet. When they

quite understandably wonder where the
loved one is, I'll tell them.

Nurse Gingrich wouldn't give them to me.

Yeah. Uh -oh. We got company.

How you doing?

Good. Hey, what's wrong? Who's this?

Nobody's sick. This is some life support
equipment for CPR accountants. Huh?

Next week in the Redwood room.

Oh. Need any help? Come on, you two.
Sweep up there, okay?

I'm not going to conduct an autopsy in
here. I need to check the body for

another possible cause of death.

Bullet hole, bump in the head, anything.

All right. Ready?

One, two, three.

Who is it?

Room service.

We don't want any. Is this 517?

Change their minds.

The lady who ordered the champagne said
it was important.

What? Let him in. Come on. We'll cover
it. Come on.

Hi.

You can just put that right in there.

Thank you.

Do you think the Padres are going to go
all the way this year?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

You know, if the bullpen holds up,
everybody stays healthy.

Ah, yeah, here you go. I'll be back in
15 minutes with your hot hors d

Oh, that'll be fine. Do you want the
fondue? Fondue sounds terrific.

Fondue?

Started here, huh?

Nothing abnormal here.

I thought we'd eaten the room. It's much
more private than the dining room. Yes,

and I'm beginning to hate that accordion
player.

And I've ordered champagne to start
with.

On second thought, maybe the dining room
is a better idea.

Is that man dead?

Let's talk about you.

Put your finger right there a minute.

What?

Put your finger there a minute. I need a
little help.

I need the layer.

Me too.

I don't need this, do I?

just take this away and we'll call you
when we're ready to eat, okay?

Anything

for

you? It was luncheon for two.

No, no, thank you.

Oh, I'm a little short.

Um, Rick, why don't you give him a tip,
huh?

Oh. Yeah.

Ah, let's see here.

Thank you.

Jerry, how can you do that?

Well, eat.

I don't know.

But Topsy's make me hungry.

It was nice of your mom to order this.

Oh, okay.

The ME's report was accurate as far as
it goes.

No contusions, cuts, abrasions, or other
signs of a fire or struggle.

And the guy definitely drowned.

But not in the lake.

Huh? Along with the water in his lungs,
I found wine.

Wine? Wine.

Wine.

Maybe the guy was drunk when they
drowned him. No.

The only way to get wine into your lungs
is to inhale it.

Whenever we find two kinds of fluids in
the lungs like this...

It usually means the guy was drowned
someplace else and then put in the lake

the ocean to cover it up.

This guy drowned in wine, not the lake.

Cable?

It's worth checking out.

First of all, let's get that body to the
state cops.

Wait a minute. I don't finish eating.

Go on.

Bring it with you.

I don't think I heard him, A .J.

They

just

left the hotel with the body.

I'm used to it.

But if I were you, I'd turn the air
conditioning on.

What is that?

It's a siren.

That didn't work. Hang on.

Looks like dissension in the ranks.

They're probably arguing about whether
to shoot us or drown us.

Sure, why not?

More money in this than wine.

Oliver Turner stumbles onto it.

The goons here pick him up and take him
for a one -way swim in a vat of wine.

I can't wait to see what little surprise
they've got in store for us. Hey, in

there. In there?

Yeah.

I always said that before I died, I
wanted to drink a truly great wine.

This is cutting it a little close, but
what the hell?

And that's final. Look, Gable, I'm
running this operation.

We agreed on that. I did not agree to
murder.

And this is still my land. You own a
thousand acres of dead grapevines.

If I hadn't come in here with a new cash
crop, pal, you'd be out on your

pedigree looking for a job.

Does that mean we have to kill everybody
who wanders by and accidentally sees

what we're growing? Until we get it
harvested, yeah. There's too much at

here. Look, you stand to make five
million bucks.

No taxes.

Now think about that. A lot of people
have been killed for a lot less.

Now if you don't want us in here next
year, that's up to you. We can always

more land.

But in the meantime, those nosy guys in
the warehouse, they're going to simply

disappear.

And this time there won't be enough left
to float back to the dock.

Then there was the guy that got hit by a
piano.

Hit by a piano?

Yeah. Walking down the street minding
his own business.

Some people were moving out of a third
floor apartment.

They were lowering this grand piano out
the window.

The rope broke.

Swack! Right on top of this guy.

People heard it for blocks around.

Strangest one I ever saw.

Listen, no. Ah, napalm. No.

Tracer bullets.

No. Trotinol from a bouncing baby. No,
no, no, nothing like that. It's a supply

sergeant. Got drunk in a Saigon
restaurant and drowned in a bowl of hot

soup. Look, as much as I am enjoying my
most unforgettable stiff, what do you

say we keep these guys from killing us?

You mean you don't want them to turn us
into a crude but hearty table wine?

Not really.

You suppose this marijuana's dry enough
to burn?

Probably. Let's make our friends think
we've had too much to drink.

Let us pretend we've had too much to
drink.

This

is

a crime.

We like it in here. Come on in. There's
plenty to drink.

I think I may have said, come on out.
That's probably where I heard it.

You see, all you had to do was ask nice.

Ah!

You must be Mr. Gable.

That's right.

In the murder business now, huh?

You shut up. Come on. Oh, boy. Moving.

Moving.

Okay.

Oh, oh, oh. I got you. You're waiting
for something so far. Hey, put the fire.

Put this out here.

Our profits are burning up.

I really can't.

You're just in time.

Hey, what is it?

I had enough, Gable.

I've looked the other way far too long.

This is the end.

Oh, thank you.
