stars Fritz Weaver,

Harris Ulan, Mario Raccuzzo,

and Helm.

Tonight's episode, Conspiracy of Terror.

So that's the story. I had no real
insurance.

Nothing.

Nothing for Helen and the kids.

So it wasn't tough for me to say that
Charlotte Sheffield and I were having an

affair.

And that I killed her in a fit of anger.

But now you say you didn't.

No. Sheffield killed her.

I was dying. I had nothing to lose.

Lauren Sheffield.

promised me that if I took the blame,
he'd look after my wife and children.

Riley, you know very well that you don't
need me for this.

If you call a press conference, you'd
have your story in the headlines by

morning.

No. Uh -huh.

I don't want that.

Mr. Terrence,

the cons here say you can be trusted.

Your book, uh... Seven Death Row. Yeah.

You treated those guys right.

You gotta promise me you'll do this for
me, too.

I'm listening.

I'm keeping up my end of the bargain.

I'll do the time.

It can't be much longer the way I feel.

But I gotta be sure that Sheffield keeps
up his end of the deal.

And he takes care of Helen and the kids.

What is it you want me to do, Riley?

When I'm gone, he goes back on his word.

You can use this story any way you want.

But I want the story of Charlotte
Sheffield's murder told.

You can count on it.

But you'd shake him up a lot more if you
told the authorities now.

No.

Then Helen would have nothing.

Who's there?

How long have you been standing there?

It's okay.

Stacy's my cellmate.

Yeah, I just come to tell Riley that
he's wanted down to radiology.

Didn't mean to interrupt anything.

We'll talk again soon, Riley.

You will do what I ask?

Sure.

Lauren, let me talk to him first.

Why?

I have an idea.

Just give me five minutes. It'll make
things a lot easier.

All right, Porter.

If Stacey Vernon's message is correct,
it could mean trouble. I must have that

tape.

I was only a stringer, but I worked for
Sheffield's paper for over eight years.

It wasn't unusual he'd call me up to the
house.

I'd been there maybe a dozen times
before.

Mr. Terrence, I'm Porter Long. I
represent... Yes, I know who you

I'm very busy, Mr. Long.

Well, I'm sorry for intruding at such a
late hour.

But I understand you received some
information regarding Mr. Sheffield

There really isn't any point in our
fencing words.

I know John Riley didn't kill Charlotte
Sheffield.

Riley's using you, Mr. Terrence.

Oh? He wants to get revenge on Lauren.

The same reason he went after Charlotte.
For some unknown reason, Riley hates

Lauren.

I think he has a very good reason
indeed.

Well, you must understand how a man in
Mr.

Sheffield's position, the state senate
race, in front of him, publicity like

this could destroy him. Oh, yes, it
could.

It could.

You know, I promised Riley that I'd
remain silent so long as Sheffield took

of his family.

I would never go back on my word.

But the thought of Sheffield gaining a
foothold in government, well, I'd just

have to fight him another way on that.

I advise against that.

Lauren.

Writer of your experience, Mr. Terrence,
must realize that in my position, I can

do you a great deal of good.

Or harm.

Yes, I'm well aware of the power of the
press.

Good. Then we can do business like two
civilized men.

I'm afraid your price would be a little
too civilized for me, considering what

Riley has already told me.

I knew Charlotte was dead the minute I
saw her.

Sheffield never turned a hair.

He asked me to cover up her murder the
same way you'd ask for a second cup of

coffee. Leave it alone, Sheffield.

I can't allow this to be held over my
head.

I warn you, this is loaded.

Now put the tape on the desk.

Perhaps we could work something out. The
only reason I haven't gone to the

police is my promise to Riley.

Now put it down.

Now don't tempt me and get out of here,
both of you.

What are you doing?

Everybody knows writers are emotionally
unstable.

Simple case of suicide.

Don't you see, Mr. Jones, there's no
reason for Jeffrey to commit suicide.

I've never heard of a good reason for
suicide. I'm more interested in why he

wouldn't.

Jeffrey celebrated life.

He reveled in the challenge of it.

So did Hemingway.

Mr. Jones.

I agented the sale of Jeffrey's first
book.

And I was there when he won his
Pulitzer.

I knew him better than anyone.

I'm sure you did, but if he didn't kill
himself, we're talking about murder.

And that's a pretty strong medicine to
be taking without a prescription.

Okay, okay, I know it isn't evidence.

And you'll probably say it's frivolous.

Try me, Miss Meyer.

All right.

You've probably read about the grand
parties Jeffrey liked to throw. Oh, he

loved them.

About the only thing he loved more was
going to someone else's.

And this Friday, we were to fly to
London for the Duke's costume ball.

Jeffrey had already selected his outfit.

And you figure he wouldn't be caught
dead missing that.

Exactly.

Ugly death like this? Never.

It's an embarrassment he'd never impose
on himself.

Or anyone else.

What about his writing?

Was he working on a book?

Nearly finished.

And planning another after that.

Well, the day he died, you know, he
called me. All excited. It was something

about an interview with an inmate at
state prison.

Suicide was the last thing on his mind.

Well, I must admit, he doesn't sound
like a man who was thinking of taking

own life.

But the puzzle is, if he didn't, who
did?

Well, now, that's why I want you to take
the case.

To find out.

Well, Miss Meyer, it sounds a little
more like a challenge than an offer.

Nevertheless, I'll take you up on it.

Oh, by the way, I hope you all
understand, gentlemen and ladies.

Forgive me, Bertha.

I hope you all understand that I want
any mention of the candidacy held at a

very low key.

I mean, it's hardly proper if the
Sheffield media toots the Sheffield horn

loud and too long.

We don't want a backlash, folks.

Well, then you want us to hold a low
profile until your candidacy is

officially.

Not too low, though. I still want to get
elected.

Frank, I never tried to influence your
column, now did I? But a kind word from

you wouldn't hurt.

You forget, Lauren, I'm incorruptible.
Oh, yes.

That's the very word I had in mind.

Ah, darling.

You look lovely.

Thank you all for coming.

Are you sure, Lauren?

There isn't another announcement you
want to tell me about?

Forget both. I'm a recent widower.

And for now, at least, a confirmed
bachelor. But I promise if I change my

you'll have an exclusive.

I'll hold you to that.

Silk against satin.

Smooth all the way.

Not if this Terrence thing blows up in
our faces.

How can it? We've destroyed the table.

What if Riley should decide to talk to
someone else?

You better make sure he understands what
will happen if he does.

No one knows the pups. Not now.

Note here in the apex, John, it appears
to be much clearer than it was a month

ago.

Does that mean I'm getting better?

John, I don't want to build your hopes
up unduly, but yes.

The carcinoma has definitely entered a
state of remission.

What's the matter?

I thought you'd be pleased.

If you don't mind, I'd like to be alone
for a while, okay?

Take all the time you want.

Barnaby Jones.

Took an awful lot of talking and paper
signing to get in here to see you.

This place is tougher to get into than
Fort Knox.

It's even tougher to get out of.

Mr. Jones, didn't you get my message?

I really don't know anything about
Jeffrey Terrence that you can use.

Well, there's just a couple of details
that I need.

Mr. Terrence's agent was very anxious to
find out exactly what he was working on

at the time of his death.

Best of my memory, all he did was ask me
general questions.

How I reacted to prison.

Stuff like that.

I guess he thought since I'd been a
newspaper man, I could articulate it

than most.

That was Mr. Terrence who asked for the
interview?

Yes.

Why do you ask?

Well, e -newspaper people need a nose
for news. A detective just needs a nose.

Well, the guards told me that he saw Mr.

Terrence tape recording your
conversation.

Yes, I suppose he did.

I wasn't having a very good day.

Remember any of the questions?

Mr. Jones, I'm sorry. I don't even
remember my answers.

The doctor said that it was because of
the medication I was receiving.

Yeah, sometimes your memory deserts you
at odd moments.

I remember once I was introducing my
mother -in -law to a group of people,

said, folks, I want you to meet my
mother -in -law, Mrs... I couldn't

her name.

Believe me, I remember that for that.

Well, we should have no trouble finding
that tape among Mr. Terrence's things.

Thank you very much for your time, Mr...
One more thing.

On the day of the interview...

Did Mr. Terrence exhibit any signs of
thinking of suicide?

No.

Of course, all my years as a newspaper
man, I never met anyone who could say

when a man on a ledge was going to jump.

Yeah, I suppose that's true.

Unless, of course, the man was pushed.

Thank you, Mr. Riley.

I hope you decided to use your head in
there, Riley.

Use my head?

Well, those friends of yours, they're my
friends now.

That lawyer Portalong got for me a
couple of months ago.

He's springing me tomorrow.

Hey, I'm very happy for you, Stacy.

Stay happy, then.

Don't get any more ideas about opening
up your mouth like you did with

huh?

Otherwise, your family's had it.

Long said to remind you that most
accidents take place in the home.

You know, there's no telling what could
happen if they weren't around to keep an

eye on the kids.

You think about it.

Find anything on the Riley interview?

No.

I'll save this for Mr. Terrence.

I've never seen such organized material.

Oh, that was Jeffrey's forte as a
writer. Completely organized.

Ultimate attention to the smallest
detail.

You can see that again.

Look at these cassettes.

I have been for hours.

Every one of them.

Everything neatly labeled and cataloged.
That's not what I mean. Every single

cassette had a full left spool on side
one.

It means that they were all rewound and
not one of them was taken off the

machine in the middle of play.

Doesn't that just mean that Mr. Terrence
kept his materials ready to use?

Well, I think it tells us a little more
than that. Unless we can find one

cassette that was ejected before it was
rewound, we know there's one missing.

Well, there shouldn't be.

Nothing's been touched since Jeffrey's
body was found.

Well, that's what troubles me.

The counter on the recorder here reads
462, but there's no cassette.

And if Mr. Terrence had rewound that
tape the way he did all of the others,

the counter would read zero.

Right. The last tape he was working on
was removed in the middle of its play.

The Riley interview.

Well, since that's the one we can't
find, that's a pretty good bet.

What puzzles me is why anyone would want
that interview taped badly enough to

kill Jeffrey.

You know, if I'd had any idea that
Riley's letter to Jeffrey would have led

this.

You mean Riley asked for the interview?

Yes, of course. Why?

He told me it was the other way around.

Then he lied.

Riley pleaded for that interview.

A dying man, Jeffrey couldn't refuse.

I kind of thought that Riley wasn't
revealing everything he knew.

Makes you kind of wonder what was really
on that interview tape.

Paul Chan, if Riley doesn't tell you,
there's no one left to ask.

There may be one.

Stacey Vernon, Riley's cellmate, gets
out of prison today.

A high -priced lawyer named Scoval got
him out on a technicality.

Betty, would you see if you can find out
who hired Mr.

Scoval? I'll get right on it. Oh, where
are you going to be?

Well, I think that Miss Meyer and I are
going to try to give a helping hand to

Mr. Vernon on his road to
rehabilitation.

Hey, C. Vernon.

Yeah. Barnaby Jones is my name.

Miss Barron and I thought you'd probably
need a lift into town.

If things work out right, you could make
a few dollars in the bargain.

Well, what are you talking about?

Well, get in. We'll explain.

I sure appreciate you stopping.

You know, for two years I dreamt about
one of these things. It's funny, huh?

Not checks or booze or cars.

If you accept Ms. Meyer's proposition,
you'll have the money for the whole

Come on, I don't know nothing about
writing.

You don't have to.

I can get someone to handle that.

What I'm interested in is the
information that Jeffrey Terrence

interview with John Riley.

So if you could recall something, it
could be extremely valuable.

How valuable?

Since it's possible, we could get a book
out of it.

Let's say $10 ,000 for your fee.

Let's say $25 ,000.

Right, $25 ,000.

What's the matter?

I think Mr. Vernon is having trouble
adjusting to the rarefied atmosphere.

Yeah, I sure am.

Lady, I don't know nothing about what
you want. I wish I did.

But you said... First day madness.

All ex -cons get it.

Hey, listen, I think I'm going to walk
from here.

I got some thinking I want to do.

Thanks for the ride in the hamburger.

You know where to reach us if you
remember anything.

Well, what did I do wrong?

The good thing you're a literary agent,
not a private detective.

You would raise the overhead something
terrible.

Well, I just thought if the amount were
high enough, he'd have to tell us. The

trouble with inflation is it makes a
seller's market.

If Vernon has anything, he'll shop it
around.

Then I think we'll hear from him.

I wasn't very smart of you to come here
like this. You could have been seen.

Don't mean to trouble you, Mr.
Sheffield. It's just that after Mr. Long

that lawyer and all, well, I wanted to
thank you.

Had no idea I'd get out so fast.

Truthfully, neither did I.

Yeah, well, things are sure going my way
now.

I even got an offer to write a book.

What kind of book?

Audrey Meyer.

Mr. Terrence's agent offered me $25
,000.

Seems to think there's a book in the
information that Riley gave Terrence.

She and a detective named Jones met me
when I got out.

Now, wait a minute. Hold on, Porter.

Let Stacy make his point.

Well, since she seems to think it's
going to be a bestseller, and knowing

Sheffield here was in the publishing
business... You're talking blackmail.

No, I never mentioned that.

I just wanted to give Mr. Sheffield
first crack.

How much?

Well, let's say you were to double that
agent's offer.

$50 ,000.

$50 ,000? I don't have that kind of
money in the house.

Take a down payment for starters.

That's fair enough.

Porter?

Coffee, Mr. Brown.

That's what I have to do until we can
arrange for the rest.

You call when you're located.

Sure, sure.

Listen, it was nice doing business with
you guys.

For a while there, I thought you might
take it wrong.

Oh, no, not at all.

No, I admire a man who recognizes his
assets and uses them.

Good day, Mr. Furman.

can't just kill someone.

I mean, Terrence's death couldn't be
helped.

And Charlotte.

I can understand how in anger she
embarrassed me with her drunken

She was determined to stand in the way
of everything I've ever worked for. I

couldn't allow that any more than I will
allow Vernon.

You're talking about cold, premeditated
murder.

I mean, I'm no saint.

Then do what I ask you.

If you can't kill Vernon, get somebody
else. But Stephen's taken care of

tonight.

No, John never mentioned Jeffrey
Terrence to me. But then, the way things

we don't talk much when I visit, Mr.
Jones. We just touch and hope and pray.

Yes, I can understand that.

Mrs. Riley.

Did your husband ever tell you the full
story of Charlotte Sheffield's murder?

I think he knew it wouldn't do him any
good.

How so?

After 15 years, a woman knows some
things about men that she's lived with.

I mean, John would never have had an
affair with that woman.

Since your husband was convicted of
killing his wife, doesn't Mr.

Sheffield's generosity seem a little
strange?

I think, uh, after everything that's
happened, Mr. Jones, I'm the last person

that you should ask for a judgment like
that.

Have you spoken to your husband's doctor
lately?

No, no, I haven't.

John asked me not to.

He said he didn't want me counting the
days.

Well, he might not mind so much now,
because according to the doctor, there

going to be a lot more days to count,
maybe even years.

But then why didn't John tell me that?

Sometimes good news kind of sticks in
the throat when you can't put your arms

around the one you want to tell it to.

Okay,

baby, just a second.

Be patient, baby. Be patient. You're 15
minutes early. When Daddy says 8 .30, he

means 8 .30.

Uh, Stacy Vernon?

Yeah. Ah.

Oh, Barnaby.

Brought you here.

Just dropped by to make a reservation?

Nope. Looks like this motel could be
hazardous to your health. What does the

corner make it, Lieutenant?

Suicide. Should be first day blues.

Vernon just got out of the slammer
yesterday.

Yeah, I know.

He wasn't exactly dressed for walking
off a balcony.

Any sign of a first night girlfriend?

Bellhop said she arrived about 45
minutes late.

When Vernon didn't answer the door, they
figured he'd got drunk and passed out.

Gardner found him this morning.

Drink that much?

Enough, judging from the bottles in his
room.

You still haven't told me what you're
doing here.

Well, your office told me where I'd find
you, and then I realized we had an

interest in common.

My client offered Vernon a lot of money
yesterday for a little information.

He didn't take it?

I think he put it out for bids.

One thing for sure, he's too smart a con
to take himself out this way.

If I run onto anything, I'll give you a
call.

Barnaby Jones office. May I help you?

It's me, Betty.

Oh, Barnaby.

You caught me halfway out of the
elevator.

You may owe me a pair of new hose.

I'll buy you two pair of new hose if you
help me.

Stacy Vernon was dead when I got here.

Oh, I was just talking about him a few
minutes ago.

Did you get anything?

Maybe. I managed to have lunch with one
of the younger members of the School

Ball law firm.

It took some doing.

But he finally told me that Vernon's
legal fees were paid by a man named

Long.

Porter Long.

Am I supposed to know that name? Porter
Long is Lauren Sheffield's right -hand

man. And Lauren Sheffield is... I know
who Lauren Sheffield is.

Thanks, Betty.

Go out and buy yourself a whole box of
new hose.

You shouldn't have spent the money on
this.

Lisa told me to tell you that she got
the lead in Antigone.

Antigone? With braces on her teeth?

That'll be something.

How's Greg?

He's fine. He got quarterback on his
football team.

John.

John, why didn't you tell me?

What?

That you're getting well.

Who said that?

Mr. Jones and I talked to your doctors.

Well, you shouldn't have.

It won't change anything.

John, it would if you would let it.

Mr. Jones says that you're not telling
everything you know about Jeffrey

Terrence's death.

I don't care what Mr. Jones says.

Well, it all has to do with Charlotte
Sheffield's murder, doesn't it?

Stop it, Helen. Leave me alone. Just
leave me alone.

Darling, don't you understand that
there's any time?

Anytime at all, a day.

A day that belongs to Craig and Elisa
and to me.

You belong to us, John.

Helen.

Helen.

Believe me.

If there was anything I could do to get
out of here, to be with you and the

kids, I'd do anything.

I'd say anything.

I love you, Helen.

Mr. Jones is investigating the death of
Jeffrey Terrence.

What is it I can do for you, Mr. Jones?

The problem is every lead I get takes me
back to Riley. I was hoping you might

be able to provide me with some
information.

I'm sure my personnel department can
give you more than I can.

Well, funny, I thought you two were good
friends.

Why is that?

Well, I talked to Mrs. Riley, and she
told me that you had been continuing to

pay Mr.

Riley's salary.

Now, that seems very generous in light
of the situation.

Mr.

Jones, my wife was not a very discreet
woman.

John Riley was not the first man to
share a bottle with her or her

Now, Porter, maybe Mr. Jones would like
something. No, thank you.

Then you don't blame Mr. Riley.

At first I did.

Charlotte was the kind of woman who
could drive a man to kill.

Any man.

Does that include you, Mr. Sheffield?

Mr. Jones, if I may interrupt, it's
company policy to take care of the

of employees.

Was Stacy Vernon an employee?

Vernon? He was Mr.

Riley's cellmate.

Mr. Long went to great expense and
trouble to get him out.

Porter became interested in his case
while visiting Riley.

I was glad we could be of help.

Too bad Vernon didn't live to enjoy his
freedom.

He died last night.

Oh, that's too bad.

Mr. Jones, I'm afraid I've let the time
slip up on us.

Unless you have some more questions?

Well, just one.

Were you acquainted with Mr. Terrence?

No. No, no. I confess I was an admirer
of his work.

Well, I was hoping you might be able to
tell me why someone would steal the tape

of his interview with Riley.

Well, I'm sorry I can't help you.

But I'm sure a man of your resources
will find the answer ultimately. Oh, I

will. It's kind of like learning to play
the guitar by ear.

You just keep plucking all the strings
until you find the right notes.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Mr. Jones, you're wasting your time.

I don't really feel up to answering any
more questions.

You're looking a lot better to me.

Did you hear what happened to Stacy
Vernon?

They let us watch television.

Did you know it was Lauren Sheffield
that got him out?

What do you want?

I'm very grateful to Mr. Sheffield.

After what I did.

You know the whole story.

All but a part of it.

Why would a man like you, in your state
of health, go after a woman like

Charlotte Sheffield?

Maybe I wanted just one last fling.

That's not much of an answer.

Especially in view of the hell it put
your family through.

Your wife doesn't believe it, and
neither do I.

Well, you're just gonna have to live
with it.

Or die with it, like Jeffrey Terrence.

He tried to help, too, didn't he?

Look, I'm not asking you for help.

But you did ask Terrence.

His agent remembers your letter.

Riley, I can understand why prison
doesn't hold much terror for a man who

he's dying. Especially if a few months
behind bars will provide for his wife

children after he's gone.

You finished, Jones?

Not quite.

The doctors tell me that those months
could be years now.

A small lifetime.

Look... I know what I've done.

And why don't you tell me the truth the
way I believe you told Terrence?

I'm a dead man.

Don't you see that?

I learned to live without a long time
ago.

Even if the doctors are right, nothing I
can say is going to change that.

I'm a dead man.

Don't you understand that?

Without hope, none of us would be alive.

You missed your calling, Jones.

You should write epitaph.

I'm just dying to make the announcement
about you two.

What say?

Should we let it out?

Let.

All right.

No, sir, but the nothing formal just a
little tidbit or two about how well my

relationship with Miss Mason is coming
along You

know

Frank I just may have an exclusive for
your column What's the matter one of

pen pals need some free space?

Jeffrey Terrence never had to beg for
space when he was alive.

Oh, I'm sorry. The sad news is that he's
yesterday's news now.

Not if that detective I hired, Barnaby
Jones, is right.

He thinks he's unlocked the mystery
surrounding Jeffrey's death.

You mean why he committed suicide?

No. Jones thinks it was murder.

Well, it seems Jeffrey had made some
notes on the project he was working on,

Jones found them this afternoon.

The only problem is, though, they were
in Jeffrey's personal shorthand, but

Jones says in time he can decipher it.

As a matter of fact, he's over at
Jeffrey's place working on them right

He says he should have the answer in
just a few hours.

Come on, will you join us?

Yes, but give me some more of that.

Oh, well, we'll talk about it later,
Frank. Drink your drink.

How could I know he made notes from that
tape?

Well, you'll just have to get in touch
with your friend and see they're

destroyed, won't you?

Have them take care of John's while
you're at it.

Maybe you should reconsider, Lauren.

Maybe there's nothing incriminating in
the notes.

Do as I tell you, Porter.

This time, see that it's final.

You are Barnaby Jones.

I don't recall that we were ever
introduced, but we might have a mutual

acquaintance, Stacy Vernon.

Everybody's got a job to do.

He did a very professional one on him.

Shut up.

Back away.

of the staff.

There's no writing on here.

On the other paper.

You look comfortable down there. Why
don't you stay right where you are?

All right, Mark. We'll take them here.

Would you mind telling me why you took a
chance like that? You knew I had my men

closing in.

Well, I was afraid the long arm of the
law had developed bursitis, and he

look like he was going to wait.

I think I recognize the face. Mr.

Trumbull, isn't it?

Read his rights.

Never mind that.

I don't speak to nobody until I see my
lawyer.

Give him his rights, take him downtown,
and book him.

They're all jailhouse lawyers these
days.

Sorry, Barnaby. Looks like you struck
out.

I wouldn't say that.

More like a foul tip.

Something's gone wrong.

You should have heard something by now.

Relax.

You set yourself a man as a
professional.

He's as good as you say he is, Danny.

you, Mr. Sheffield?

Well, I really don't know. Just a
second, Mr. Jones.

It's all right for her.

Well, come on in, won't you? Can I get
you a glass of brandy?

No, thank you. I'd only planned to stay
a few minutes.

What can I do for you?

Well, I thought you might be interested
in some of the reading I was doing

tonight. It's very enlightening.

especially if you want to include that
Trumbull fellow you had dropped in on

Trumbull? The only one named Trumbull?

Well, possibly he was a friend of Mr.

Long's. The police will decide that.

The police?

Yes, they should be here shortly. I
thought it would be helpful to one of

you had this little talk first.

What are you driving at?

Well, one of you can get off on a charge
of accessory, but I suspect that Mr.

Sheffield will choose that option
because he has a history of letting his

help take his punishment for him.

You're fishing, Mr. Jones?

I don't think John Riley would say I'm
fishing, not now.

I think you ought to have a talk with
Mr. Riley, Mr.

Long. You might find you have a lot in
common.

After all, you were the last person
standing between Mr.

Sheffield and the...

Police, you may have to become the patsy
for Mr. Terrence's death.

I didn't kill Terrence.

Well, what about Stacey Vernon?

Trumbull didn't do that by himself.

Be quiet, Porter.

Mr. Jones, if there are any charges to
be filed against Porter, be advised he

will have the full weight of Sheffield
Enterprises behind him.

That's very impressive.

You think you can stay afloat with that
load on your back?

I'm not going to let you do to me what
you did to Riley.

It's over.

Any deal I make from now on is for
myself.

Can't say I'm really disappointed in
you, Porter.

You're gone, Mr. Jones.

This isn't going to help you any, Mr.
Sheffield.

Like Porter, you lack imagination.

You came here tonight because an attempt
was made on your life by a man hired by

Porter Long.

Police will never believe that.

Well, I've never met Trumbull.

You hired him.

When Jones confronted you with it, you
panicked.

You tried to kill Mr. Jones, and he was
forced to shoot you with this gun.

But not before you got off a fatal shot
yourself.

You're forgetting about Mr. Riley.

When the police look into Porter's
motive, I'm sure Riley could be

reveal that it was Porter who killed
Charlotte. Porter, over against the bar.

All right, wait a minute. Lauren.

I'll take the rap.

Whatever you want.

you're being sensible.

This is an emergency.

Get me the police.
