A drink, Marty?

No, we gotta be going.

Well, can you stay a minute? I'd like to
talk to you.

Much.

Sit down, Marty.

No, not a chance.

The books are closed.

Nobody's been given membership in Cosa
Nostra for years.

Oh, that doesn't make any sense. Every
organization needs new blood.

Why are you so anxious to join the
family?

You got all the benefits, the
franchises, the protection, the family's

blessing. Well, I appreciate the
blessing, Marty, but...

I could be out in the streets without a
phone call.

But if you were a member, it wouldn't be
that easy.

Is that it?

I want in.

Sponsor me, Marty.

Why should I?

No reason.

I just thought it might help if... If
what?

the price were right.

Do you know what the council hands out
for selling memberships?

Is, uh, $50 ,000 worth the risk?

I told you.

You can't buy your way in.

He got a visitor.

Hello, Scott.

I hear you're planning to set up a nice
casino in the place, huh? What do you

want, Phil?

I... I want a job. Oh, please, Scott.
Just anything, huh?

Just give me a chance again.

Look, I'm all right. See? Look, Phil,
I've got some people in there. Go home.

Call me tomorrow. I haven't got a home.

I've got nothing.

Not one cent.

You've got everything, Scott.

We were going to be partners.

You waste me out.

You waste yourself out.

I built that enterprise, and you stuffed
yourself into a bottle.

It was my investment.

Well, I bought you out.

For a top dollar. Top dollar.

If you don't have any more money, I'm
sorry.

But that's it.

Some people might like to know you're
turning this place into a casino.

And about the people who are behind you.

Maybe some people you can't buy out.

Go get yourself some food and a place to
sleep.

You may change your mind by tomorrow.

It's Phil Garrett. He used to work for
me. I know.

He's got a big mouth.

But he won't use it.

Are you sure?

He's bitter.

And he's got nothing to lose.

It's a bad combination.

Well, there's no harm coming around
once. It's not just once.

I hear he's on your back all the time.

Always calling you and trying to get
through to you.

Tossing threats around.

No.

That I didn't know.

He could be real trouble.

We got a big investment here.

You and me.

And the family.

It'll be all right, Marty. I'll handle
it.

It'll be all right.

You just be sure.

I'll ring you tomorrow about that other
matter.

I'll take the car.

You better make sure he's all right.

Tonight's episode, Pressure Point.

On April 4th, Philip Rex Garrett, an
alcoholic derelict, was found in a

alley, critically wounded by a gunshot
and left for dead.

As he was being rushed to a nearby
hospital, a letter found among Garrett's

effects was forwarded to FBI
headquarters in Washington, where it was

by agents in the document section.

What do we got, Bill?

Well, Garrett may possibly have been
intoxicated when he wrote this. The

that we can decipher read almost like
slurred speech patterns.

Anything new in Garrett's condition?

No, he's still critical. Can you bring
any of this out? I was just about to use

infrared light on it.

To FBI, it will interest you to know I
know about

a syndicate gambling operation.

My old friend...

Plans it about April.

I'll see he doesn't make it.

Background information on Guerin.

Well, he comes from a good family.

College education.

Yes, sir, but he didn't do much with it.

He dissipated a fair -sized inheritance
inside a year.

Started an arrest record.

Drunk and disorderly.

Vagrancy.

Any theft?

Well, they sure went downhill in a
hurry.

Sounds as though he might have had help.

Tom, call the Detroit office and bring
them up to date on this.

And contact the criminal intelligence
section. See if they've heard anything

about the movement of gambling devices.

Yes, sir.

I'd like to know more about Garrett's
background.

We might be able to identify this old
friend.

Gentlemen, that's enough for tonight,
huh?

Marty, turn that lamp down, please.

It's not easy after a cataract
operation.

Mr. Crist, just one more point of
business.

I'd like to sponsor a man for
membership.

Scott Rogers.

Well, I think he deserves it.

Look at the business he's built.

He's too good to keep on the outside.

He's young.

Well, we need youth.

Maybe.

We'll watch him a little longer.

Thank you for considering it, Mr. Crist.

Good night, Marty.

Marty, that real estate operation in
Holbrook went well for you?

No, it fell apart.

But I thought you heard.

Oh, yeah, I did.

What about the creosote plant?

It's doing fine.

Not according to your last month's
statement.

Your cash reserve must be getting low.

A little, but I'm not hurting.

Good.

That's good.

Scott Rogers.

First arrest here in Detroit at age 20
for violating local gambling ordinances.

He operated his own crap games.

From that, he branched out into the big
time and went into a business

partnership with Philip Garrett.

Garrett supplied the money and Rogers
the brains.

Apparently, Rogers bought him out about
two years ago.

Is Rogers a Cosa Nostra member?

No, but he operates under their
protection.

Does he have any legitimate businesses?

Yes, a number of them. He may be
planning to use one of them to front a

gambling casino.

We'd better put him under surveillance.

Information coming through from Las
Vegas.

Unknown subjects. Possible movement
gambling devices.

Between Nevada, Michigan.

Informant reports two truckloads slot
machines left Nevada April 5

last.

Shipment believed.

headed your area.

No description, vehicles, or license
numbers available to date.

Following serial numbers of slot
machines supplied by

informant. If they're left on the 5th, I
don't think they'll have time to get

here yet.

Unless they're driving straight through.

At best, it doesn't give us too much
time.

Of course, the trucks could have been
supplied locally.

Doug, better make a check of all
trucking and leasing companies.

Assemble a special squad and put them on
a standby alert.

Oh, there's no problem.

It'll have to be approved by the rest of
the council, but that's just a

formality.

Are you practically a member?

Why'd you have to shoot him?

Bill Garrett, why?

He was a harmless drunk. He wouldn't
have done anybody any harm.

I don't like it.

Well, neither do we.

But sometimes it's necessary for self
-protection.

Relax, Scott.

You gotta leave these things to us.

You gonna be ready to open the first of
the week?

As soon as the rest of the equipment
gets here.

It should be in tonight.

I'll call you if I hear anything.

Martin Roll. He's out of the Nolan Crist
Mafia family.

The warehouse belongs to Rogers,
Detroit's salvage company.

We suspect that's where the casino's to
be located.

I remember Roll.

I'm sure he has good reason to remember
me. I arrested his brother a couple of

years ago on an extortion charge. He was
present at the trial when I testified.

I see.

Do you suppose he's supplying material
services to Rogers?

I doubt it.

Anything to link them together?

He's probably taking the payoff for the
gambling franchise.

I want to see a current summary on him.

What's the surveillance report on
Rogers?

Well, he arrived at his residence about
half an hour ago, and he's had no

visitors.

The surveillance units are in place
around the warehouse.

No sign of the trucks.

We have units at the Fisher, Gresham,
Jefferson accesses.

The rest of the agents in the special
squad are being kept in reserve here.

All right, maintain constant radio
contact. Doug, call the U .S. attorney

tell him what we have in Las Vegas.
We'll need a warrant.

I'll ask for one covering gambling
devices and shipping documents.

Scott. Go to bed. Oh.

Is there something I can help you with?

Did I ask you?

No.

Why don't you let me help you? Oh, just
go to bed, Trace. Please, just go to

bed.

Scott, I have never tried to mix into
your business.

I've tried to be the kind of wife you
wanted. Just stay in the background. But

have known all along that you weren't
making all this money honestly.

I've had an idea of the kind of people
you've been dealing with.

Now something terrible has happened, I
can see it.

What is it?

Something I should have expected.

But it still hurts.

Phil Garrett.

I read about him getting shot.

I didn't tell you, but he was here at
the house that night, looking for you.

And you sent him to the warehouse?

Yes.

He looked so desperate.

It wasn't me, Trace.

I didn't want him hurt.

Oh, why don't we get out of all this?

I'll be right over It's too late

DE -23 to Control.

Control, go ahead, DE -23.

Two semi -trucks are approaching down to
Gresham Street access.

Approximately 40 -foot van -type
carriers, green tractors.

They're moving into the Detroit salvage
now.

Have the special squad stand by. Tell
them we're on our way with a warrant.

DE -1 to all units on the special.

Move in, now.

Mr. Rogers, we'll take those.

This warrant gives us the right to
search the premises and to take those

documents with us.

You have the right to remain silent.

Any statement you make can be used
against you.

You can call your attorney if you wish.

But the serial numbers on the gambling
devices match those that were

from Nevada two days ago.

I'm afraid you're mistaken.

The trucks that transported them are
registered to Royal Leasing, a company

you own.

I never heard of it.

Have you ever heard of Martin Rowe?

Martin Rowe?

He's the Cosa Nostra lieutenant you've
been doing business with for the last

year.

Since 1968, September, your ledgers have
shown a weekly payment of $5 ,000 to

MLR.

Those initials could stand for a lot of
things.

Is there anything else?

Yes.

I'm sure you realize that if La Cosa
Nostra feels threatened, they won't

hesitate to take any steps necessary to
protect themselves.

Well, are you suggesting that I don't
apply for release on bail?

That something might happen to me?

I'm suggesting that you help us.

So we can put them where they can't do
anything to anyone.

Well, I'm afraid I can't.

I've never had any connection with the
Cosa Nostra.

Anyway, why would anybody want to hurt
me?

Or anybody near me?

You and Philip Garrett were friends,
weren't you?

You're not going to try to make charges
against me for that, are you?

May I go now?

Be out on bail in an hour.

Well, a couple of our first -team
lawyers shouldn't have any trouble

off, Mr. Crist.

Roger shouldn't have used his own trucks
to transport those machines.

Well, we can break that.

Just hire some witnesses to testify that
they were stolen.

Look, we can beat it.

It's not the point, Marty.

He did a stupid thing.

I don't think we have any further
interest in Mr. Rogers.

Let the government have him.

But what if he talks?

What about?

There's nothing to connect him with us,
is there?

No. He didn't sign any receipts except
that he checks.

No, of course not.

You're quite concerned about Mr. Rogers.

First you try to sponsor him for the
membership.

Now you try to save him after a mistake
a kid wouldn't pull.

Well, I just hate to see an investment
go down a drain.

But I know you're right.

Of course I am.

It's just like you, Marty.

Always worrying about business. You get
too worked up.

It's not your fault. Don't sweat about
it. We can afford a few losses.

Now, how about both of us getting some
sleep, huh?

Good night, Mr. Chris.

Now, it's just going to take a little
time, that's all.

That's just what I don't have, time.

I've got a good case.

You've got good lawyers.

The best lawyers in the world can't
guarantee an acquittal.

The right people have to be bought off.
Witnesses have to be bribed.

Marty, I need your help. That's why I
paid for the membership.

Now, look, look. Let me get started on
it, huh?

You'll hear from me in the morning.

It's going to work out all right. It
better, Marty.

It's just better.

If I have to take a fall.

After what I paid you.

Now, I told you not to worry.

He's going to blow the whistle of the
council about that money I took for his

membership. Unless you can get him off
yourself.

Let's see what we can do to help him.

Now, get out the list.

Everybody we ever did a favor for.

First try and find a helium panel in the
grand jury.

Let's pull out all the stuff.

What if we can't swing it?

Then you'll have to...

You owe me.

I wouldn't call unless I had to, so
what's the big deal?

All I want is a few names of the
prospective jurors, that's all.

But I know it'll cost. I'm willing to
pay.

All right, forget it.

But the next time you want a favor,
don't bother to call me.

used to couldn't reach anybody. They're
too scared.

The word's out that Chris wants Rogers
to take the fall.

Well, that's it then.

Finish Rogers.

Well?

The police know I'm close to you. When
Rogers gets it, they're going to start

checking on you.

And me.

It's not smart.

Yeah, you're right.

I'll have to contract somebody else.

Someone I can't connect.

All right, I was just about to call you.

You have any news on Philip Garrett's
condition?

Yes, they removed the bullet, but he's
still in traumatic shock. They have no

idea when he'll be able to talk.

Have you forwarded the slug?

It's on its way to the left.

You suppose Rogers knows about Garrett?

I'm not sure.

We're going out to see his wife now. She
called and said it was important.

Oh. Well, let me know what happens.

Jumping pale.

Deserted. Dumped.

Friends with both are delivered, but I'm
afraid they're not going.

So, I'm going to help myself.

But that's a federal matter. We'd have
to leave the country.

That's right, but it's not we. It is
just me.

There's $10 ,000.

It's all the cash we've got.

Except... what I need to cross the
border.

Now, there's some more cash and bonds in
the safe deposit box. I suggest you get

them in a hurry.

Scott, if I don't mean anything to you,
what about Patty? Doesn't she mean

anything either?

Of course she does.

But do you know what it means to be on
the run?

Do you think I can put you two through
that?

Now use your head.

With this, you and Patty can get a new
start.

Mrs. Rogers?

Yes? I'm Jameson Presco, Presco and
Siddons. Is your husband in?

Oh, he didn't say anything about it.

It's about his court case, Mrs. Rogers.

Come in.

I'll be a moment.

I'll go with you.

Now look, I've got lots of money.

Lots of it.

I have $50 ,000 in the safe.

I'll show you.

Don't bother.

You over here.

It looks like Rogers has some out -of
-state visitors.

DE -5 to control.

Go ahead, DE -5.

This is Inspector Erskine. Give me a
quick check through NCIC on a blue 70

Torino, Minnesota plates 1VA978.

you get through that window.

All right.

What I want you to do is I want you to
walk along the roof of the tree at the

corner of the house.

Can you climb down it? Yes, I can.

Now listen,

don't stop running until you get to Mrs.
Gordon's house.

All right, now be careful. Be careful.

V5, go ahead.

NCIC reports subject of your inquiry
identical with vehicle used in armed

Toledo, Ohio yesterday.

Vehicle reported stolen. Consider
occupant armed and dangerous.

10 -4.

FBI. Drop it.

Step back.

Are you all right?

You have any papers or receipts

signed by Raw?

No, he was too smart for that.

He took the payoffs in cash.

What about the gunman that came after
me?

Isn't that enough to put Raul away?

Yes?

Mr. Ward.

Yes, Art.

Well, Lewis, we've determined that the
slug removed from Philip Garrett was

a 7mm Nambu, a Japanese automatic
pistol.

Well, they must be pretty scarce by now.

Well, there weren't very many
manufactured.

Does the name Jack Lutcher mean anything
to you?

He's one of Rawls' men, isn't he?

That's right.

Our files show that he carried a Nambu
in the past.

I'd like to be the tie -in right there.

What's the disposition of the files
Roger gave us?

Well, we're still studying them. As soon
as I get a clear picture, I'll call the

U .S. attorney.

Well, keep digging.

I've got a feeling we're getting close.

I got the message you wanted me to call.

Yeah, Marty, how about dropping over for
a drink? I got a stock investment deal

I'd like to discuss with you.

Well, I'm a little busy right now.

Marty, I think you'd better come in.

Look, Mr. Crist, what's really on your
mind, huh?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Look, I'm sorry. I've been pressing
things a little too hard lately. I guess

need a rest.

Look, would it be all right if we met
tomorrow?

No, Marty.

Not tomorrow.

Now.

Marty.

You're through.

I don't understand.

Why?

You violated the code.

You took a $50 ,000 bribe to sponsor
Scott Rogers for the membership.

Well, that's not true.

I'm afraid it is.

Oh?

Well, you'll need a witness to convince
the council.

We have a witness.

Marty, come on.

Get it over with.

Make it easier on everybody, huh?

Are you sure you won't come with us to
the luncheon, Inspector? I promise to

they don't ask you to say a few words.

Oh, thanks, Doug, but I'll just grab a
sandwich. I'll be back in a few minutes.

Edson's about three blocks down 12th is
the best place around. Can we give you a

lift? Oh, that's all right. I'll walk.

What do you want, Raw?

You're Inspector Erskine, aren't you?

I remember you from my brother's trial.

Is that why you're following me? No.

I want to make a deal with the FBI.

What kind of a deal?

Now listen to me.

I'm under a death sentence from the
council.

Now I need your help.

Now in return, I'll give you records and
papers that'll put every family in this

district out of business.

You want to volunteer information? Come
on back to the office. Look, it's not

that easy.

I want three things.

Immunity from prosecution, a cash
payment, and protection until I can get

the country.

Oh.

I have no authority to promise you
anything.

Then let's not waste our time.

Sounds as though you have any too much
to waste.

Get in the car.

You too.

FBI agent, this man's in my custody.

Get in the car.

Don't try to stop us.

We're back.

Keep going.

Too fast.

This isn't going to work.

They're gonna gun the both of us in
another second keep going I

gotta make a run for it. Control
yourself

Get out of there.

That's all I know about the operation
here.

All right, that does it for now.

Won't you sit down?

Would you read this, please, and sign
it? I know my rights, Inspector.

Before you go on, Inspector, I know it's
not much coming from somebody like me,

but I want to say it anyway.

Thank you for saving my wife's life and
mine.

Scott Rogers was convicted of interstate
transportation of gambling devices and

was sentenced to a federal prison.

Martin Rall and Jack Lutcher were tried
in state court and convicted of the

attempted murder of Philip Garrett.

Through testimony and records supplied
by Martin Rall, Nolan Crisp was indicted

by a federal grand jury for conspiracy
and on interstate gambling charges.
