I've looked forward to this moment all
my life.

I can't tell you how important a deal
like this could be to my shop. This way,

please, Mr. Nyquist.

Mr. Quiller, is it permitted to smile
even a little?

It is not advisable, sir.

The diamond you purchased is valued at
$100 ,000 as agreed.

Modest, but quite acceptable for a first
-time buyer here, sir.

Mr. Cartman.

If I might be so bold, you've done well,
sir, earning this invitation here, sir.

I don't imagine Mr. Carton's pleased.

You have a talent for understatement,
Cruller.

To the right, sir.

Exquisite.

What a beauty.

Sixteen flawless carrots.

Exquisite.

Don't be alarmed, A .J.

You're back early. You said you weren't
going to get in until tonight.

Spoil my surprise.

Your surprise?

Yeah. Well, mine and Jenny's. You
remember Jenny from the 24 -hour

place? You're never going to believe
what she did.

Where's my furniture?

I was getting to that, see. But first of
all, let me tell you. Last night, after

I dropped you off at the airport, I went
to that little drive -thru milk and

cheese joint out by the wharf.

And you're never going to believe. See,
I ran into Jenny.

Without going into unnecessary detail, I
seem to remember there used to be...

An off -base, tri -cushioned, queen
-size sleeper sofa right where I'm

And surrounding this sofa and collected
over the years

were all the odds and ends of my life.

Where the hell is everything?

On its way back.

From? Mexico.

Mexico. And the best part is, you're not
going to recognize it.

Now, possibly because it won't be mine.

No, because it's going to look like
brand new. See, that's what I've been

to tell you.

Jenny's ex -husband just got released
from the work farm, see, and he got a

with his power cleaning outfit down in
El Centro, and I figured we could kill

two birds with one stone. We could, you
know, get him off on the right foot, and

we could get you a free spring cleaning.

Oh, there they are. It's got to be them.
Hang on. Just a second.

Be right with you.

Hey, oh, guys!

You were saying? Correct me if I am
wrong. Mm -hmm.

But wasn't Jenny's ex -husband doing a
nickel for smuggling? Smuggling, yeah.

Yes, he was. Right. Because you and I
helped to nail him. Well, yeah, we did.

So, in short, a convicted smuggler is
going to be driving a highly suspicious

truck built with my furniture across the
border. They will rip apart everything.

The sofa goes down in front of the guy
who's yelling.

And this.

Where does this go, AJ? That doesn't go
there.

That's not mine. That's not yours.

Well, some of Carlos' stuff was sent
down, too. If it's Carlos', it probably

fleas. Yeah, it might.

We get it out of the house with all the
fleas. Now, this can go back, all right?

We finally made it.

To my family.

To my friends who stood by me.

To my distinguished competition, Harry
Carton, across the street. May you

swallow a court's watch and die.

Hurry up, Uncle Jack. I want to see the
16 -karat diamond.

the same stone.

It's junk. It's garbage.

Well, why not just steal it? I mean, why
go to the trouble of making a switch?

Because he wants people to say that Leo
Nyquist is a fool who buys junk stones.

Mr. Nyquist, why did you come to us?

I talked to some insurance agents and
they said that you were good and that

were as honest as you had to be and you
were in the neighborhood.

always good to hear.

I guess what I meant was, with a theft
of this magnitude, you should be dealing

with Scotland Yard or the FBI.

The police?

No, no, no.

No, not yet. First, you guys will have
to do a good job, and then you will go

the police, not I.

You see, in the diamond industry, we
operate under a strict code of ethics,

I will not break it.

How would you be breaking it by going to
the police?

Because it is forbidden to malign
someone with a public accusation.

Now, if I go to the police, I'm playing
right into his hands.

In other words, you think you know who
did it?

Oh, I know.

Sure, I know.

That's Harry Carton.

The boy is his grandson, Jerry.

For 70 years, one of the top jewelers in
this town.

Now he feels my hot breath on his neck,
so he's trying to trip me up again.

Again? This has happened before?

Yeah, but not as serious. He spread the
rumor that I sold phony rings to the

sailors in the last war, but it was a
lie.

Harry knew it.

You knew it, Harry!

Have your shipments been interfered with
before?

No. What about the other jewelers in
towns? It happened to them?

Just me, Mr. Lucky.

Still the theft of a 16 -carat diamond.

Just because of a simple business
rivalry, it's a little hard to believe.

But that's what he wants everybody to
think.

You see, once you get the proof, then
you can throw that old thief in jail

he belongs.

You really want it to be the cartons,
don't you, Dad?

I know it's the cartons. I just want
everybody else to know it.

How do you know? You just said we don't
have one bit of proof.

You see, my daughter is so good -natured
that she just can't see the evil all

around her in this world.

And my father, when it comes to the
cartons, can't see anything but evil.

loyal to the Nigerian tradition passed
down for 70 years. Hate the cartons.

Andrea, that's enough. That's what I
say.

Enough!

Oh.

Ditto.

Hey. Good to see you. Good to see you.
Ditto.

Hey, Jay.

How goes it?

You know this man? Oh, yeah, Ditto. This
is Leo Nyquist. Leo, this is Ditto.

He's our expert.

Ditto. What kind of name is that for a
grown man?

What are you an expert on, Mr. Ditto?

Documents.

Anything written or printed along with
the paper it is written or printed on.

Inks and dyes.

Envelope. The glues and pastes used to
seal envelopes.

Along with postmark, watermark.

Dance. Type font.

And the general lore and arcana of
bookbinding.

Bookbinding. But mostly forgery.

Is this guy wanted by the police?

No. The glory days are gone.

Arthritis. The curse of the craftsman.
These days all I can do is be an expert.

Well, I can sympathize with you.

We have a cutter.

Has the same problem.

Well, gentlemen, it's game time.

The bot's been tampered with in London.

Yeah. Their security's unbreachable.

It didn't happen there.

It's true. They've never had a theft.

Well, that still leaves the courier.

Plus all your employees, past and
present, and your ever -popular

jewel thief.

I got something.

Hey, look.

Look, oh, this is the clincher.

Yeah, I see something.

You mean you don't see something.

Like I said, I don't see something. I
don't?

No. See, the DEO seals have a pattern on
them, like a watermark.

Uh -huh.

Only visible under the infrared.

This has nothing on it.

Which means it's counterfeit.

Mm -hmm.

Besides which, the DEO uses a special
paper from a small town in England, St.

Mead. It's wonderful.

This is from Jersey.

Theirs or ours?

Hoboken. Well, whoever did this must
have had a genuine D .E .O. sealed copy.

Hey, Leo?

Hmm?

How many diamond men in this area are
invited to London?

Besides me, only one.

Harry Carton.

This guy's out of the van an average of
52 seconds per stop.

Well, it's possible to make the switch.

Chancey, but possible.

Next stop, let's, um... Let's see just
how it's done.

Rick, that's breaking and... Never mind.

Okay, we've gained entry.

If we're Harry Carden, how do we know
Leo's shipment's even in here?

Check the routing book.

Let's see who's right ahead of Nyquist.

Nyquist?

Carden's jewelers.

A week. Ten days at the most. But you
said you'd take five stones. We're

canceling the order.

We've decided to go with another
company.

I'm sorry.

Leo.

Harper's about their bill stolen. Tell
him I'm out.

Uh, David?

Uh, look, Leo left town, and you know,
he's got to sign the checks. I just

countersigned.

isn't safe.

How are you?

I'm fed up. I'm angry.

Me? No, when my father's silly, the way
he's always talking about your family.

I hate to think what he would do if he
found out about it.

Soon he won't be able to do anything.

We're getting out of here, Andrea.

No, I don't know if I can leave now.

Why? Because he might leave this
business because of that stupid diamond.

I don't know if I can leave him now.

Listen, Andrea, everything's going to be
all right.

Do you know something about all this?

I love you. That's all I know.

Did he do it?

Your grandfather?

Maria, wait!

Good night, Jerry. Be careful.

Okay, Grandpa, I will.

That's strange.

What do you think?

Hey, Jerry.

I'd like to talk to you.

We're private investigators.

AJ? Yeah.

Put it down.

Now grab a hold of his hand. Keep
talking to him. Just talk to him. I'll

ambulance. Yeah.

Just lie still. An ambulance is coming.

Lie still. Lie still.

Tell Andrea.

Tell her I'm sorry.

Just lie still.

Where's your gun?

Well,

somebody did.

Look, we identified ourselves as private
detectives. A shot was fired, nearly

killed us. A .J. fired back at the
muzzle flash. We followed every

procedure. All right, just calm down.

After we compare statements.

What, is the kid's story any different?

He hasn't been conscious long enough to
give us one. Jerry!

I'd like to find out about Jerry
Carton's condition.

He just went into surgery.

We'll know soon.

Are you a friend of Jerry's?

No, my name is Simon, A .J. Simon.

Okay, you come here.

You shot my boy?

Well, but... Oh, dear God!

Get out of here!

Go away! Get out!

Someone was shooting at us. My
brother... My son was outside his own

own place.

Well, we just wanted to talk to him.
That was all.

No, no, no, no, no. Take her away from
here.

I apologize for Mrs. Carton.

She can't feel anything beyond her son's
pain.

I'm not the kind of man who goes around
shooting children.

I know you aren't.

You must have known what was waiting for
you.

You came here to the hospital.

But you came anyway.

That takes character.

I keep going over it in my mind.

I'm trying to find out if there was
something different I could have done,

anything.

Perhaps something you could have done a
long time ago.

Are you talking about the work I do?

Mr. Simon, I'm not judging you.

But I see a man who's troubled.

I wonder...

If you can ever feel entirely right
about doing a job that puts you in an

with a gun.

There was another man in that alley with
a gun.

He shouldn't have had one either.

Yeah, but he did.

And it was my job to do something about
it. And if I hadn't used my gun, there

might have been three dead men in that
alley.

I can't deny that.

But that's not what happened.

No.

No, it's not.

Break, will you? Sorry about that.

This is the last of the egg?

Yeah, I'm sorry. I'll replace them just
as soon as I can.

Marlo, get out.

Marlo, come on. Get out of there.

Go on, get off.

Go. I'm sorry.

I'll just straighten this up for you
here.

Mind leaving that? I was planning to
read it. Okay.

You

just

going to stand there?

Well, say something.

No, I don't think so. This is one of
those times, no matter what I say, it's

going to be wrong, so I'm just not going
to say anything.

What the hell does that mean? There, you
see?

Okay,

I'm going to say something.

You feel like hell.

You keep asking yourself, is there
anything I could have done differently?

And you're mad because the answer keeps
coming up the same. No. That kid is 17

years old.

He has his entire life ahead of him, and
I may have taken it away from him.

There's nothing else you could have
done. I could have done what you did and

held fire.

This is precisely why they tell you
never second -guess yourself in a

Yeah, we could have both held fire.

We could both be dead.

I've killed two other people in my life.

I still have nightmares about it. I see
their faces.

I threw up after the first one.

I had no choice then.

They were trying to kill me.

This... kid.

This kid didn't even have a gun.

I am supposed to be a trained
professional.

I should... I

should have contained the situation
somehow.

Instead I...

to understand now. Why did you start
seeing this boy?

I didn't do it to hurt you. I never
wanted that. I love him.

But he's like all the cartons. No, he
isn't. Andrea, he stole the diamond.

No, I won't believe that. You can't make
me.

I don't want you to see this boy
anymore.

I want you to promise.

Do you hear what I'm saying?

I want you to promise.

No!

Why don't you let me do that one for
you?

George, I gave you three stones. Now,
what do you want from me?

Hey, Leo, lighten up.

What's up, Leo?

I want you to start the investigation.

It's too late to save the business, and
if you continue the investigation, I'm

liable to lose my daughter, and I cannot
risk that.

So it's over.

Let me explain something to you, Mr.
Nyquist.

I shot somebody last night.

And until we get some answers, nothing
is over.

Come on, Rick.

You're not the only one with a code,
Leo.

You all right?

Jerry. You don't want to know what I was
doing in the alley.

I just want to understand.

I was cutting through on my way home.

Some guy tried to rob me.

Are you sure it had nothing to do
with... You know what we talked about?

It had nothing to do with your father's
diamond.

You don't believe me.

One submarine coming up.

Okay.

Like it? Very nice, very nice.

I'll tell you, when it comes to your
precious and your semi -precious, Felix

your man.

You know, those look like piranha over
here, you know. Lady, take a goldfish on

the house, all right? Ten -day free
trial.

Thank you.

What's the matter, too big?

No, as a matter of fact, a little bit
too small.

What do you got in the way of 16 carat
uncut?

We wouldn't happen to be talking about
one out of London.

Well, the Nyquist stone. Sure, I got a
call on it.

Are you trying to recover it?

Could be a nice finder's fee for you.

Enough to keep you in Piranha for the
rest of your life.

You know, I just happen to know someone
who knows someone who might be able to

put you together with the stone.

Give it a count of 30.

Don't turn around.

Expect me to examine this diamond in the
dark?

Don't worry. Straight ahead, there's a
diamond light.

Now to the left.

what the hell happened

No, honey.

Is that punching bag filling in for
anyone in particular?

Just the world in general, I think.

How long has he been in there?

Oh, just... Well, he ought to be out any
minute now.

How's the boy who was shot?

He's coming around, finally.

Thank God.

And A .J.?

Don't go in there, Mom.

Rick, it's been two weeks.

I mean, when you were little and you had
a problem, you'd go off by yourself and

you wouldn't come back until you'd found
the answer.

But A .J. wasn't like that.

Eventually, he would want to talk to me
about it.

Always.

Mom, A .J.'s only problem is he cares.

He feels other people's hurt.

Makes our kind of work tough on him, but
it's also what makes him so good at it.

AJ will come to us when he's ready.

Come on, don't worry.

I know him.

He'll get past this.

I hope you're right.

Of course I'm right.

Went off by myself and found the answer.

So will he.

Daddy? I saw this doll.

You can identify it.

They're going to have to cut it now.

Oh, brilliant.

It's very good.

What do you think it'll weigh?

Eight and a half.

How long do you think before they try to
sell it?

I don't know.

They might be trying right now.

Dad, it takes longer than that to cut a
stone that size.

This one they can.

It's got no flaws to work around. It's
got... Perfect.

We'll get it back, Dad. Everything will
be all right again. I know it. We'll be

in business a long time.

Hello?

Yeah, I recognize the detective.

Fortunately.

Before he had a chance to recognize me.

Everything's fine.

I hadn't figured on cutting the stone so
soon.

It's going beautifully.

Tomorrow?

Right.

I had the feds run a national computer
check for any previous diamond jobs

the same M .O.

Uh, your boy struck before.

Where? New York once before.

And? And nothing. The jewelers tried to
hush it up. Something about some kind of

honor code. Yeah, I've heard of it
before.

New York has the largest diamond center
in the country.

I bet half the people working the
diamond trade in this town worked out of

York at one time or another.

Yeah, not much help.

Where's your buddy?

You know, a blonde guy about yay high,
wears shirts with little critters on

them. You look lost without him.

Yeah, sometimes I am.

This is a surprise.

How are you?

I'm okay, I guess. I don't know.

How about a hug?

Mom, I don't think even a hug would help
me now.

It might help your mother.

I'm going to get out of this business,
Mom.

Well, there was a time I would have
cheered to hear you say that.

I'm saying that... Why don't I feel like
cheering?

I don't know.

Do you believe me?

Do you believe you?

A .J., this is a decision you have to
make after some time has passed and

got your right perspective back.

Then you'll be able to make a choice you
can live with.

What about right now?

Start by being easier on yourself,
honey.

You've got to learn to forgive yourself.

It's easier said than done.

What am I going to do?

Why don't you go and see the boy?

Hi.

Hi.

I'm A .J. Simon. I remember you.

It wasn't your fault.

It was just a lot of bad luck all at the
same time. You got that right.

Andrea, what are you... No, Jerry, it's
all right. He knows about us.

So does my father.

What'd he say?

He said he understands.

Well, my folks don't understand at all.

You guys better get out of here. They're
coming pretty soon.

Folks are bound to find out eventually.

And when they do... If it means we have
to get out of here, we will.

Doc said I get out of this place soon.

After that, nothing's going to come
between us again.

Not even a diamond?

I know what you're thinking, but you're
wrong.

Totally wrong.

Eight carats.

Fine color.

Flawless. Well, of course it's flawless.
Didn't I tell you on the phone?

You told me.

So, what are you offering?

Twenty -four a carat?

Twenty -four you could have got last
year. Not now.

I can go fifteen.

It's a highest quality D color.

21, minimum.

19.

All right, 19.

Mazal and brush.

Mazal and brush.

Okay, Leo.

Right.

Yeah, I got it.

I'll meet you there, Leo.

Leo, got something?

Yeah. They put an alert out on the cut
stone.

Guess it showed up in Los Angeles.

What's going on?

I'm going with you.

You don't have to do this, A .J.

I'm going to go up to L .A. I'm going to
talk to a guy. It's going to be

routine.

You don't have to do this.

I'm going with you.

You're still in a case, and I'm not
letting you go up there by yourself.

Of course, I could hire another
detective to go with you, but I don't

that. Why not?

Because you deserve the best. Then let's
get the other guy.

Good to have you back.

Good to be back.

I had to see you. You should be in bed.

I have to leave town, Andrea.

If I stay here, I'll just turn into one
of them.

What about me?

Andrea, listen.

Take it.

Don't open it till I'm out of here.

I don't want to read any letter.

Then I'll tell you now. I didn't want
to. No, don't tell me anything. Just go

away.

I did it.

It was my grandfather's idea, but I
helped him.

We stole your father's diamond.

I knew it.

My family. What could I do?

I thought it could make some money so we
could go away, you and me.

Then you told me your father's business
might be ruined. I tried to get the

stone back to give it to you.

That's what I was doing in the alley
that night.

I blew it.

Jerry.

You're right. You should leave.

Andrea, please.

I'll make it up to you, Andrea.

Before I go.

I didn't know about your alert until I'd
already bought it.

He cut it precisely the way I would
have.

Joe, you bought it in good faith. Come
on. Here it is. It's yours.

Leo,

you have an honest reputation.

We'll talk. We'll make an arrangement.
Okay?

Thank you.

If we could only find the man who cut
this.

There's a trademark.

Trademark?

Some cutters cut their own special mark
into a stone.

See, Leo?

On the girdle.

We will need a description of the man
who sold it to you, Mr. Wilson.

It won't be necessary.

I know this trademark.

My own man, George Seaver, cut this.

Well, 19 a carat.

Is that all you could get?

It's a good price.

Not for a stone like this. I didn't do
this for money.

Why, then?

Well, I never had my mark on a stone
that size.

He wasn't going to let me cut it. He
said it would be too dangerous with my

arthritis.

30 years I worked for him.

He wouldn't trust me.

I had to do one big stone.

Before these become your... I had to.

Rick?

What's he doing here?

Jerry, what are you doing here?

It's no good, Grandpa.

I thought he was out of this.

What are you talking about?

I don't want to ruin the Nyquist.

This is the only way the feud can end.

You're a child. Get out of here. Go
away, Jerry.

That money isn't yours.

Hold it.

It's not what you think.

I was getting the money back for Leo.

I'm not going to jail.

No! Ah!

Ah!

Steady yourself, steady yourself.

There we go.

Now, I would like to propose a toast.

To Jerry and Andrea.

To your union.

And our reunion.

And to the peace between these two good
families.

Well, it was time for all that fighting
to stop.

I'd like to propose a toast to the two
guys who kept Nyquist in business.

While we're toasting.

To AJ.

Thanks for saving my life.

I'm just glad you were around for me to
save.

Can we drink now?
