There. That better?

Yes, that's fine. Thank you, Joe.

Lovely party, Mrs. Daly.

Oh, I'm glad you like it, Mr. Daly.

Have you, uh, spoken to Michael yet?

No. He asked me if you'd talk to a
lawyer. I told him I didn't know.

No, I, uh... I haven't.

He suggested that we, uh...

Did we separate for a while before
filing the actual papers?

I suppose they always try to keep the
parties together.

Yes, I suppose they do.

Kate, I wonder...

Oh, excuse me.

Very nice.

Michael.

Don't look so glum. It isn't the end of
the world, you know.

You know, Catherine, it's a funny thing.

I've been handing divorce cases for 25
years, but I've never yet gotten used to

the idea that it could happen to friends
of mine.

Well, then, we're in the same boat.

I can't seem to get used to the idea
that it's happening to me.

Now, if you feel that way, don't you
think you ought to consider it? I think

better put that back on the wall before
you impale someone with it. No,

Catherine. Excuse me, Michael, dear.

Be right back.

Maria. Don't scream, Miss Daly.

You're not a child.

Take this, ma 'am.

Now you go right on ahead of me, ma 'am.

Go on.

Freeze, Mr. Daly.

Now, I'd be much obliged, ladies and
gentlemen, if you'll just take your

and your jewels and hand them to Miss
Daly here as we pass them on you.

That's it. Just drop them right in the
bag there.

That's very nice of you. Thank you very
much.

Thank you, ma 'am. That's very nice of
you.

Much obliged, sir.

Right on around here, Ms. Daly.

Mr. Daly.

Out in the bucket there, sir.

That's very nice. Thank you very much,
sir.

Thank you, ma 'am. That's very nice of
you.

Thank you, sir.

Ms. Daly.

Just here.

Very nice. Thank you very much.

There, ma 'am.

Very much, that's very nice of you.

Bailey, here you go.

Can you make it?

Catherine,

anyone sets foot out of this house, and
the lady's dead.

Didn't move.

Move!

Tonight's episode, Region of Peril.

On the morning of December 6th, the car
used by the abductors of Mrs. Joseph

Daly was found abandoned in New Mexico,
just across the Arizona state line, 45

miles south of the Daly Ranch.

A second set of tire tracks indicated
that at this point, the kidnappers might

have transferred their victim to another
vehicle.

Although there was no sign of violence,
the investigating officer was able to

find evidence that Mrs. Daly had been in
the area.

A single diamond earring had been
dropped in the dirt.

It's definitely Mrs. Daly's, Inspector.

Her husband identified it this morning.

You've had a chance to examine the car
yourself?

Yes.

Hello, Chano. I'm San Pablo.

Could you tell which direction the
second car took?

It continued south for about a mile and
a half to County Highway 14, then turned

west toward Tucson.

Were those dirt roads?

follow the tire marks so far.

Well, the kidnappers ran off onto the
shoulders several times.

Well, suppose this is a deliberate
attempt at misdirection on their part.

What are their chances of crossing into
Mexico?

Poor. Both sides of the border are well
patrolled in that area. Could they have

gone east?

Well, again, Mr. Ward, it's not very
likely. That's primarily desert country,

few mountains, no roads, no water.

You've alerted the Mexican authorities?

Yes.

Well, let's start an air search over the
ground to the east, too.

I'll be out there by noon your time.

Yes, sir.

Home about 11 .30.

I better get going. I don't want to hold
you up.

You won't hold anybody up. Just don't
fret about it.

Sure went off just like clockwork,
didn't it, Frank?

She sure did.

Where'd you bury the woman?

the woman's still alive.

That's... That's a mistake.

That's... That's a mistake.

You kill that woman, yeah?

They won't know.

They'll think you still got a hostage to
keep the distance.

Where's Tony?

Tony took the other car and picked Linda
up in Barstow.

Now you kill that...

Kill that woman, you hear me?

You hear me?

You don't want to pay any attention to
him, Mrs. Daly.

He's delirious.

Listen.

My father's an oil man.

I can give you his address.

He'll give you any ransom you want.

But see, ma 'am, we didn't take you for
ransom.

We don't have time for that.

You were just insurance, so nobody would
follow us.

Please, don't kill me. Please, please
don't kill me.

Mrs. Daly.

There's the one I ought to kill for
spooking you like that.

All right, I'll tell you the truth.

We talked about it.

We talked about it, we did.

I mean, we had the whole thing timed out
pretty tight.

Tony, he was...

Going to lead the police off on a wild
goose chase to L .A.

Al and me would hike out into the
desert.

Got a plane heading out there.

We figured you wouldn't be able to keep
up anyways.

I would.

I would.

I was born here.

I know the desert.

I'm even a licensed pilot.

Where are you going?

Mexico? Mm -hmm.

Helped out on the trip.

I could help out.

And after you landed, you could let me
go.

And then I could find my way home later,
later on.

Could you find a place up here called
Silver Mesa, Mrs. Daly?

Silver Mesa.

Well, not at night, but in the daytime,
I think I could.

See, I don't know the desert at all.

Al's the guide.

So you might say that our lives kind of
depend on each other, don't they?

I mean, Val doesn't make it.

What about the insurance, Uncle Will?
Any possibility of collusion on Daly's

part?

I looked into his financial background.
He's sovereign.

He's a millionaire ten times over.

Any ransom notes?

Nothing yet.

We had a few crank calls to Daly and to
us.

One might be significant.

A woman in Barstow telephoned the
resident agent.

She claimed she saw a woman in an
evening gown struggling with three men

gray Fairlane sedan.

The agent asked for her name and
address.

She just gave the license number, a
California plate, and hung up.

What time did the call come in?

Six this morning.

A car traveling at normal speeds would
have gone through Barstow about that

time.

A break in the case?

Or more misdirection?

There is one thing, Inspector, that made
us wonder if this trio hadn't come from

Los Angeles.

An informant mentioned that an L .A.
thief named Frank Padgett had been seen

the Tucson area.

Now, Padgett has been connected with a
number of jewel robberies. He likes to

work with one or two helpers,
particularly a man named Al Barnes.

And he has used stocking masks.

What else do we have on him, Will? Not
much.

He's unmarried. He was a pilot in a war.

A pilot?

Yes.

Is he considered dangerous?

Yes, sir.

Homicidal. Power in the Near East.

Now for a look at the local news.

There was still no word today on the
fate of Mrs. Joseph Daly, kidnapped

evening from her Arizona ranch home.

Police and FBI agents continue to search
the area.

Homer persists that the kidnappers may
have fled to California.

Prices continue to climb in the San
Pablo area as a reflection of... So now

we've fled to California.

How about that, Al?

Make you feel safer?

Just leave them here like this.

All right.

Put some rocks out front.

Cover the open.

Keep the coyotes away.

Get ready. We're leaving.

All right, what's the matter?

I just don't see why I should lead you
to your plane and just have you shoot me

in the head right there and leave me
there.

I'm gonna die.

Might as well both die right here.

Now, what makes you think I'd do a thing
like that?

Why should I think you wouldn't?

Because I told you, Mrs. Daly.

You see, with Al gone, I'm in what you
might call a sort of a weakened

I admit it.

Now, I could kill you here and now, I
guess.

Take my chances out there alone, but
that just seems to me like cutting off

nose to spite my face.

On the other hand, I see your point.

You want to make sure I'll take you
past, Silver Mason.

I'm probably gonna regret this to my
dying day, but I'm gonna live over with

you.

You see, Al, he was my pilot, too.

How about that?

Without you, I'm really grounded, aren't
I?

So come on, Kate.

You lead me to the plane, and when we
get to Mexico, I swear I'll turn you

loose.

Okay?

Anyway, he must have circled around and
he came through the back of the house.

He came through that door.

No one noticed him at first.

We were all looking at Peterson.

Then he yelled something and he fired.

What did he yell, Mr. Daly?

A name, I think.

Al.

Mr. Daly, several of the guests Mr.
Chanahone spoke to...

commented on how somber your wife looked
during the party. I was wondering, had

she had any premonitions of trouble? Had
there been any threats, perhaps from

discharged servants?

No, not that she mentioned to me.

They said she looked somber.

Somber? Sad?

Reoccupied?

Well, we've... we've had certain
personal problems.

We're not trying to pry into your
affairs, Mr. Daly, but sometimes it

to know a kidnapped victim's mental and
emotional attitude.

We lost our son about four years ago.

Or rather, my son, by my first marriage.

We never talked about it much, but it
was always with us.

Do you mind telling us how it happened?

Catherine... accidentally killed him.

He was ten.

They wanted to fly to Denver to visit
some friends.

Catherine had her on plane.

I didn't want them to go.

It was just about this time of year.

Yeah, December.

Anyway, they went.

A storm came up and they...

They crashed in the mountains.

A couple of days later, Catherine
crawled down to one of the roads with

Mac in her arms.

He was dead.

The doctor said he would have made it if
she hadn't picked him up.

The rescue party had already reached the
plane.

Yes. Just a minute.

Lou.

Los Angeles.

Erskine. Hello, Lou. Durant.

Yes, Brian.

We found a 1967 gray Fairlane sedan
listed in the barstow report.

Where? It had been left in front of a
South Pasadena duplex.

One of the tenants noticed it when he
drove to work this morning and called

police. They took one look at it and
contacted us.

Any leaden prints?

Nothing so far.

The car might have been wiped clean.

But we did come up with one significant
item.

Let me make a wild guess. A diamond
earring?

Yeah.

Did anyone there actually see the car
arrive?

Well, not the arrival itself.

But a woman in one of the apartments
across the street saw a girl looking

the car around 9 a .m.

Could she give you a description?

Just that she was young, flashy.

She walked to the bus stop on the corner
and sat down on the bench there.

The next time the witness looked... The
girl was gone.

I've been trying to locate the bus
driver who might have picked her up.

Have somebody meet me at the airport.
I'm leaving now.

Will do.

Do you think you found the kidnapped
car?

No, but I think we found the car that at
least one of the kidnappers used, and

that's almost as important.

Keep as many flights over the desert as
you can.

If they're out there, this is when
they'll be moving.

Please, please, can I rest a minute?

I guess you should have wore a good,
sensible pair of walking shoes to your

party, okay?

But just, just let me rest a minute.

You don't mind me calling you Kate, do
you?

You afraid of me, Kate?

Yes.

Good.

You like your women scared, do you?

I like my women obedient.

A little fear generally helps in that
direction.

Yeah.

I suppose it does.

That's why you and I get along so well,
Kate.

I can trust you.

I'm not always afraid you're gonna run
off and do some dumb thing on your own.

How'd you get so smart?

I learned my lesson once.

I ran off and did a dumb thing on my
own.

Made your husband mad, huh?

So he put the fear of God into you, and
you've been a good girl ever since.

Am I right?

Either that or I put the fear of God
into myself, I really don't know.

That mountain lion, don't panic.

We'll see where he is.

What do we got you called?

I ran into a dead end so far as the bus
drivers were concerned.

No one remembered picking up a girl at
the South Pasadena stop.

So I thought I'd play a hunch, see if
there'd been any cabs cruising in the

area. I found Mr. Gilroy.

Mr.

Gilroy? This is Inspector Erskine.

Hi. Mr. Gilroy?

I gather you picked up a fare and...
South Pasadena, about 9 this morning?

Yes, sir.

She was a cute kid.

19, maybe 20 years old.

Where'd you take her?

Well, I took her to Colorado Boulevard.

She wanted to take a bus to Hollywood.

See, I got her address, if that'll help.

I mean, I think it's her address.

She was in a kind of a hurry. She forgot
her magazine.

You cut your feet on the rocks, Kate.

I just followed the blood.

That's it.

Sooms? Yes.

FBI.

Hey, now, what'd you do, baby doll? Rob
a bank or something?

What's your name?

Uh, Anthony Chandler.

We'd like to talk to you.

Perhaps you'd be more comfortable
inside.

Uh, yeah, maybe we would.

Oh, honey, you have the keys, don't you?
Oh, yeah, I left them in the car.

They're holding them.

Didn't you hear me back there on the
bluff?

I said we couldn't waste any more time.

Couldn't take any more rests.

Couldn't play any more games.

Come on.

I can't walk.

You got the worst attitude I ever saw.

Always looking on the dark side.

How do you know you can't if you won't
try?

You try, you can make it.

No.

No.

I'll bet you can.

No.

Come on, let's bet.

Now, I'll bet by the time I count to
three, you'll find the strength key.

Okay?

Okay. One.

Two.

See, what did I tell you?

Who got you into this mess, Barnes or
Padgett?

Padgett.

It was all his plan, his baby.

He thought of the earring bit, the
second car, the phone call in Barstow.

Hey, uh, hey, you go easy on Linda, huh?

She just did what I told her.

Go on.

We stole a second car in Arizona.

Kept the Arizona plates on the top.

Then we got to Pasadena. Then I put on
the stolen California plates so you

find it.

Was there a third car?

No.

You say they took the woman east into
New Mexico.

Walked it.

There's no roads out there anyhow.

Where's the airplane hidden?

Under the Mesa.

That was Al's department. He and Paget
are both flyers.

Al, he rented a plane on Monday and flew
it to this spot he knew, and then he

hiked back alone.

How far away do you think the plane was
from the way Vaughn spoke?

A good day's hike, maybe more. There was
a mine just over on the New Mexico side

where they were going to rest, pick up
the radio, canteen, whatever.

That's where...

That's where Padgett figured he could...
Figured he could what?

Bury the woman.

Al said she'd just be a drag to him.

You said Padgett has a radio.

No, a weather report. News about the
job.

There's this 24 -hour station.

KNZT.

They have a news broadcast every hour on
the half hour.

Can you guys sing around?

Well, the same bad Kate, is it?

What do you suppose this was? Some
prospectus, please?

Yeah. I sure wish you'd quit acting like
I was going to haul off and kick you

any minute.

I'm sorry it's been such a rough trip. I
really am.

I'm sorry you didn't have a better pair
of shoes.

I'm sorry I didn't have a car for us.

here to toil with you, Kate.

All I want is to get to my plane.

That's all.

Now, if you fight me, we're both in
trouble.

But if you cooperate, then we both make
it.

How can it be any simpler?

You could have let me rest.

Well, I'll tell you the truth. I
wasn't... Sure at first whether I could

you or not.

I mean, I wanted to make sure that you
weren't leading me around in circles.

How are your feet?

Walking isn't over yet, Kate.

How much farther do you think it is now?

About ten miles.

Well, it could be worse.

I suppose it was fifty.

I just... I just can't do it.

Sure you can, Kate.

We'll take it slow.

Communicate with her. What are you
talking about? How? You don't even know

she is.

We know she's in the desert, somewhere
east of the state line.

We know the men she's with have a radio.

We know the station they'll be listening
to, and we know what time they'll be

listening. But even if she's alive, even
if you broadcast 24 hours a day from

every station in the Southwest, what
could you possibly tell her that could

help? You realize, Mr. Daly, that if
she's alive, it's only because of her

as a guide.

Padgett can't get through that desert
without her or Barnes.

Then you'd think Barnes is dead, huh?
Dead or immobilized at least. All right,

all right.

But what are we going to say on these
broadcasts? Dear Catherine, this is your

FBI. Would you please hit Padgett over
the head when he isn't looking and run?

We're going to try to arrange a place
where we can all meet. Where you can...

I've got a detailed map of the area.

Excuse me.

I talked to a pilot who knows this
country. He said there are half a dozen

places that... Barnes could have hidden
the plane.

They'd all be in this section.

The terrain both north and south is
either too rough for takeoff or too

for camouflage.

Mr. Daly, what's this Tiburon Wells?

Oh, they're all dried up now.

Hasn't been any water there for 20
years.

Centrally located.

I assume your wife speaks Spanish.

Oh, yes, yes.

Is she familiar with Tiburon Wells?

Certainly.

I'll tell you what we'll do, then.

We'll translate this loosely into
English. Call it, what, Shark Hollow?

Good. Inspector, I don't understand what
you're talking about. Well, Mr. Daly,

we're going to devise a code, a message
that your wife will understand in words

that won't mean anything to Padgett.

We're going to ask her to change
direction and lead him to Tiburon Wells

of to his plane.

But if he finds out she's trying to trap
him... Well, Mr. Daly...

If she takes him to his plane, there's
no doubt as to what will happen, is

there? He's a pilot, he won't need her
anymore, and he'll certainly kill her.

Inspector, it won't work.

I know Kate.

She'll be too scared to try to trap him.

Then it's up to us to see that she does
try, isn't it?

Because it's the only chance she's got.

What happened?

You don't care for my new type alarm
clock, okay?

Well, a little visitor.

A cheese -eating guest.

A mouse?

A rat.

What? Where?

Oh, don't worry, he's gone.

I didn't hit him, but I sure feared he
might have a couple years of growth.

Come on, you miserable.

Is it broken?

It's a shame, too, that you had your
husband on.

My husband?

What do you mean? Who had him on?

The news.

It started in about 2 .30 this morning.

What kind of interview? It must have
been on tape.

I thought you might have got a kick out
of hearing him.

They fight it every 15 minutes or so.

What, uh... What did he say?

Was he worried?

Well, when you and him were first
married, we used to live in Shark

Lived where?

Shark Hollow.

Yeah, we had each other.

I'll never forget the day we moved in.

Catherine came to me and she said,

But Joe, what in the world did you bring
me here for? There's nothing here but a

couple of wells.

Of course, that was before they dried
up.

So what did you say then, Mr. Daly?

I told her her friends would be coming,
that she'd have help, you know.

Yes. I said that the very fact that she
could speak Spanish would be a lifesaver

at Shark Hollow.

No, no, wait.

Please. So I said, Kate, do this one
thing for me.

Try.

And I said...

heard most of it.

It's just the same thing over and over
again.

Those were the good old days.

Do you ever like to go back to Shark
Hollow?

Mrs. Hobb, go ahead.

Well, we finally found the right mine.

Barnes is dead.

And the woman?

There's no sign of her, but the
indications are that she and Padgett

together. The tracks disappear about a
quarter mile to the east.

Well, at least we know she was alive
yesterday.

Still quiet at the wells?

Still quiet.

Wait. I know it's tough, Kate, but we
can't stop here. There's no place to

if the planes come over.

Get up, Kate.

Can't be much farther now, can it?

No.

Well, then, come on.

This way.

I thought you said it was straight on to
the slash in the hill.

This way.

Okay.

It's harder ground to cover, but it's
shorter.

How long should it take us then?

At the outside?

Half an hour.

An hour if we go straight ahead.

You know what'll happen to you if you're
lying to me?

Just trying to keep me out here?

Yes. No, I mean, do you really know?

Have I made it clear enough to you that
you'd run out of options?

Okay, I'll give you half an hour.

And 15 more minutes to boot.

And if we haven't found that plane by
then, I'll kill you.

Do you understand that?

Yes.

You still want to take the shortcut?

I don't know whether this will work,
Inspector, if she'd heard.

It's been a half hour.

Almost there.

Doesn't look much like the way I'll
describe it.

Well, it's... You see it?

It gets more level.

Up behind those big rocks.

All right. You got 15 more minutes.

Uh -huh.

Joe, will you please stop fussing?

I'm fine. I'm a big girl. No problems.

You can say that again.

Then you didn't hear the broadcast until
morning, Mrs. Daly.

No. No, that's right.

And you see, after I saw he was finally
going to let me sleep for a little

while, I couldn't think of anything
else.

And when I finally got around to
listening, I thought you were crazy.

Shark hollow. Now, whose idea was that?

Theirs. It was your husband who thought
of the interview.

He thought you might respond more
quickly to a voice you recognize.

Yes, I did.

I thought it was time we started to
communicate again, no matter how far

we'd been.

And we weren't so far apart after all,
were we?

Frank Padgett and Anthony Chandler were
convicted of kidnapping in federal

court. Both received life sentences.

Linda Soames was sentenced to five years
in prison for her part in the

kidnapping conspiracy.
