Starring Buddy Ebsen.

00:00:23,540 --> 00:00:30,340
Also starring Lee Meriwether. With guest
stars Mariette Hartley,

5
00:00:38,820 --> 00:00:42,340
Tonight's episode, Mystery Cycle.
6
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,380
Bob Depp? Yeah, uh, Mr. Yeager. You
gonna take those ridges again today?
7
00:01:17,381 --> 00:01:18,259
Why not?
8
00:01:18,260 --> 00:01:19,310
Boss allowed to play.
9
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:26,010
Let's bust him.
10
00:05:03,020 --> 00:05:05,520
Good morning. Is Mrs. Yeager in? I'm
Barnaby Jones.
11
00:05:07,220 --> 00:05:08,420
Just one minute, please.
12
00:05:12,660 --> 00:05:17,299
I'll be making some changes on the
board, but I wouldn't so much as hint,
13
00:05:17,300 --> 00:05:20,670
least not yet, that I'm thinking of
phasing out the motor division.
14
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,480
Mrs. Yeager, are Mr. Barnaby Jones to
see you? Yes, I'm expecting him.
15
00:05:25,481 --> 00:05:29,299
Well, I don't think we need worry about
the Yeager stocks not showing some
16
00:05:29,300 --> 00:05:33,419
strength soon, although it might be best
to leak the next quarterly and put the
17
00:05:33,420 --> 00:05:34,470
rumors to rest.
18
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,520
Mrs. Yeager, please accept our
condolences once again.
19
00:05:37,521 --> 00:05:40,979
All of us have the highest regard for
your husband. Thank you. Goodbye.
20
00:05:40,980 --> 00:05:42,030
Goodbye.
21
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:44,920
Mrs. Yeager? Mr. Jones.
22
00:05:46,220 --> 00:05:49,780
If this is inconvenient, I could come at
another time tomorrow.
23
00:05:50,060 --> 00:05:53,910
No, it's all right. I prefer getting as
many details out of the way as possible.
24
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,400
May I offer you something?
25
00:05:56,620 --> 00:06:00,230
No, nothing for me, thanks. This is a
lovely place you have here. Oh, thank
26
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,830
Why don't we talk outside, get some
fresh air? Fine.
27
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,299
Now, I know that California Meridian
Insurance has already spoken to you, so
28
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:09,040
I'll try not to cover any old ground.
29
00:06:09,041 --> 00:06:14,539
Perhaps you can tell me exactly what the
problem is. Is it the size of the
30
00:06:14,540 --> 00:06:19,079
policy? Well, the double indemnity
accidental death clause brings the
31
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,130
to a million dollars.
32
00:06:20,780 --> 00:06:23,190
Well, if my husband's death wasn't
accidental...
33
00:06:23,420 --> 00:06:25,770
What are you suggesting, Mr. Jones? A
suicide?
34
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:30,019
I'm not suggesting anything, Mrs.
Yeager. It's just that the company feels
35
00:06:30,020 --> 00:06:33,879
obligated to look rather closely into
the accidental death theory. That's the
36
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:34,879
reason they brought me in.
37
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,770
Well, I think you can eliminate suicide
as a possibility.
38
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,130
My husband was in perfect health, both
mentally and physically.
39
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,520
No man had a greater zest for living.
40
00:06:43,521 --> 00:06:47,839
You know, it's common knowledge that the
Yeager company was in financial trouble
41
00:06:47,840 --> 00:06:48,890
lately.
42
00:06:48,891 --> 00:06:52,799
Well, the motor division's been a drain,
that's true, so we're considering the
43
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,599
possibility of some surgery there. In
fact, the reason for that division's
44
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,360
existence passed on with Jonathan.
45
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,290
It was always more of a hobby with him
than a business.
46
00:07:01,300 --> 00:07:05,559
You don't suppose it's possible that Mr.
Yeager could have been preoccupied with
47
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,559
the problems of the company that
morning?
48
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,440
Oh, certainly not while testing a
motorcycle.
49
00:07:10,660 --> 00:07:12,220
It speeds up to 100 miles an hour.
50
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,659
I realize, riders, you take spills, but
I understand that the trail along the
51
00:07:16,660 --> 00:07:18,160
ridge was straight and smooth.
52
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,290
Mr. Yeager had been over it many times
in the past.
53
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,319
Well, perhaps what it all boils down to,
Mr. Jones, is that it takes just one
54
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,370
mistake.
55
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,820
And Jonathan made it.
56
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:34,330
Please.
57
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:42,850
Carolyn.
58
00:07:42,851 --> 00:07:48,769
Something. I'm sorry I've been in such a
state of shock. I just happened to see
59
00:07:48,770 --> 00:07:51,009
a tiny mention of it in the San
Francisco papers.
60
00:07:51,010 --> 00:07:52,350
Well, I'm glad you're here.
61
00:07:55,010 --> 00:07:57,970
Mr. Jones, this is my sister, Carolyn
Lacey.
62
00:07:58,330 --> 00:07:59,510
How do you do, Mr. Jones?
63
00:08:00,230 --> 00:08:04,549
I think I'll be leaving now, Mrs.
Yeager. If you don't mind, I'll stop by
64
00:08:04,550 --> 00:08:07,469
motor division and maybe talk to some of
the men who are with your husband.
65
00:08:07,470 --> 00:08:10,649
That'll be fine. Steve Rollins is in
charge there now. He'll give you
66
00:08:10,650 --> 00:08:12,270
help you need. Thank you very much.
67
00:08:12,610 --> 00:08:14,050
Nice meeting you, Miss Lacey.
68
00:08:21,070 --> 00:08:22,120
I wish you'd called.
69
00:08:22,990 --> 00:08:26,849
I can't tell you how awful it was
reading about Jonathan's death days
70
00:08:26,850 --> 00:08:30,330
fact. I'm sorry, Carolyn. I've had a
hundred things on my mind.
71
00:08:30,331 --> 00:08:34,009
Sometimes I can't understand you,
Frances. How could you forget to notify
72
00:08:34,010 --> 00:08:35,060
own sister?
73
00:08:36,850 --> 00:08:37,990
Half -sister, dear.
74
00:08:41,250 --> 00:08:44,770
Look, I came here because I thought I
might be some help, some comfort.
75
00:08:45,970 --> 00:08:48,200
Obviously, you don't require that
comfort.
76
00:08:48,250 --> 00:08:49,300
Meaning what?
77
00:08:49,740 --> 00:08:51,180
That I didn't love Jonathan?
78
00:08:51,181 --> 00:08:53,719
That's always been understood between
us.
79
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,380
But he was a good man in many ways,
Frances. I mean, surely you respected
80
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:03,900
Would it be easier for you if I just
drove back to San Francisco?
81
00:09:05,580 --> 00:09:08,170
Well, that would hardly look proper now,
would it?
82
00:09:08,171 --> 00:09:11,639
I'm sure we can manage to stay out of
each other's hair for a few days, don't
83
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:12,690
you think?
84
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,880
I just always wish we'd been closer.
85
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,510
That's hardly of any importance now,
Carolyn, is it?
86
00:09:40,110 --> 00:09:43,120
Now, as far as you can figure, your
position was right there.
87
00:09:43,121 --> 00:09:47,389
I'd say a quarter mile to the right of
the ridge, just along the lip of the
88
00:09:47,390 --> 00:09:48,440
Royal.
89
00:09:50,590 --> 00:09:55,670
Now, from each of these four positions,
none of you fellas saw Mr.
90
00:09:55,910 --> 00:09:57,110
Yeager go up on the ridge.
91
00:09:57,111 --> 00:10:01,269
Well, you know, out there testing bikes,
it's kind of hard to keep track of
92
00:10:01,270 --> 00:10:04,220
anybody. You're too busy trying to
handle your own machine.
93
00:10:04,550 --> 00:10:07,950
Joe, you weren't on the left side of me,
but ahead and to the right. Oh.
94
00:10:08,860 --> 00:10:11,880
I hit sand right here and almost flipped
into the arroyo.
95
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:13,380
That was to the left of you.
96
00:10:13,980 --> 00:10:15,840
No, and I saw you to his right, too.
97
00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:18,660
You were wearing a black helmet, right?
98
00:10:18,661 --> 00:10:22,699
Come on, man. I had a mouthful of sand.
You're going to tell me that I wasn't to
99
00:10:22,700 --> 00:10:23,839
the west of the arroyo?
100
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,339
You two are both wrong. I can vouch for
Joe Redding on the left. No, not on my
101
00:10:27,340 --> 00:10:29,630
left. Well, exactly where did you see me
then?
102
00:10:29,631 --> 00:10:30,759
Here, may I?
103
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:31,810
Sure.
104
00:10:32,560 --> 00:10:33,610
Right here.
105
00:10:33,611 --> 00:10:40,109
Now... How could I be over there when I
saw at least two of you guys just to the
106
00:10:40,110 --> 00:10:42,400
east of me just minutes before the
accident?
107
00:10:42,570 --> 00:10:46,589
Look, old buddy, if you weren't there,
you weren't there. But, uh, if it wasn't
108
00:10:46,590 --> 00:10:47,529
you, who was it?
109
00:10:47,530 --> 00:10:48,580
I don't know.
110
00:10:51,230 --> 00:10:52,280
Mr. Jones?
111
00:10:53,130 --> 00:10:56,130
Did you, uh, get what you came for?
112
00:10:56,550 --> 00:10:59,560
Well, there seems to be a difference of
opinion, Mr. Rollins.
113
00:10:59,570 --> 00:11:00,810
That happens.
114
00:11:00,811 --> 00:11:03,409
How about getting back to work, fellas?
115
00:11:03,410 --> 00:11:04,460
Thanks, fellas.
116
00:11:05,090 --> 00:11:06,810
Say, uh, you mind if I take this?
117
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,250
Not at all.
118
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,320
Is there anything else I can do for you?
119
00:11:11,500 --> 00:11:16,739
Well, no, no, I don't think... Well,
maybe, maybe you might be able to clear
120
00:11:16,740 --> 00:11:17,579
a point.
121
00:11:17,580 --> 00:11:22,099
Those tests that you made out there on
the desert course, were they a weekly
122
00:11:22,100 --> 00:11:22,939
routine thing?
123
00:11:22,940 --> 00:11:27,279
Well, we take the bikes out, we abuse
them, we bring them back and rip them
124
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,230
apart. Was Mr. Yeager's participation in
the test routine?
125
00:11:30,231 --> 00:11:31,859
Ah, you couldn't keep him away.
126
00:11:31,860 --> 00:11:34,090
He really loved biking across those
ridges.
127
00:11:34,091 --> 00:11:37,289
Well, what about yourself, Mr. Rollins?
I understand that you were in charge of
128
00:11:37,290 --> 00:11:40,229
all the testing, but you weren't out
there that day with the others.
129
00:11:40,230 --> 00:11:43,089
I stopped riding that desert course
about three months ago.
130
00:11:43,090 --> 00:11:44,140
Back to it.
131
00:11:44,690 --> 00:11:46,950
Well, then it's just the four fellows,
Mr.
132
00:11:47,210 --> 00:11:48,290
Yeager, and you.
133
00:11:48,291 --> 00:11:52,189
Do you know of anyone else who might
have been familiar with the course or
134
00:11:52,190 --> 00:11:54,130
ridden it or knew the routine?
135
00:11:54,430 --> 00:11:57,200
Those four men you talked to, they're
our only testers.
136
00:11:57,730 --> 00:12:00,870
They've been with us ever since we
bought that desert acreage.
137
00:12:00,871 --> 00:12:04,849
Well, thank you very much, and I hope
your back gets better.
138
00:12:04,850 --> 00:12:05,900
Thank you.
139
00:12:26,450 --> 00:12:30,370
I must have gone through six pounds of
financial reports this afternoon.
140
00:12:30,371 --> 00:12:34,519
You know, you're going to have to learn
to leave business details to others.
141
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,140
You're a very rich lady now.
142
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:38,330
Especially tonight.
143
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,240
I know what you preoccupied with
business details.
144
00:12:45,260 --> 00:12:46,310
You promise?
145
00:12:47,540 --> 00:12:48,590
I promise.
146
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,190
Wouldn't you think they'd pick a safer
spot to test motorcycles?
147
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,740
Eddie, I'm puzzled.
148
00:13:24,460 --> 00:13:28,699
I can't understand why the four test
drivers can't agree on their position
149
00:13:28,700 --> 00:13:29,750
before the accident.
150
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:35,480
Now, two of them out there claim that
they saw Joe Scully.
151
00:13:35,481 --> 00:13:39,529
It's right here. He's wearing a black
helmet and they swear they saw him.
152
00:13:39,530 --> 00:13:40,580
Right here.
153
00:13:40,830 --> 00:13:42,330
Scully says he was out there.
154
00:13:42,750 --> 00:13:45,150
He's backed up by number four down
there.
155
00:13:48,230 --> 00:13:50,190
That's a discrepancy of over a mile.
156
00:13:51,390 --> 00:13:54,700
And my first instinct was that somebody
wasn't telling the truth.
157
00:13:55,570 --> 00:13:57,630
That would be such a clumsy lie.
158
00:14:31,820 --> 00:14:33,140
Here is the point of debate.
159
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,220
Sometimes the simplest explanations are
the most accurate.
160
00:14:37,221 --> 00:14:41,119
Now, if those four riders were all
telling the truth, there must have been
161
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:42,440
another cyclist out here.
162
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:43,970
Mr. X.
163
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:45,690
Mr. X?
164
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,640
Oh, Barnaby.
165
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:55,160
Now, if, as you say, these two riders
saw him here in this area,
166
00:14:55,540 --> 00:14:58,680
well, where was he before that?
167
00:14:58,681 --> 00:15:02,159
Some place where there wasn't any chance
of one of the bikes coming tearing
168
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,620
through? Some place where he could have
kept an eye on the others?
169
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,140
Let's start over there.
170
00:15:36,490 --> 00:15:37,540
at least.
171
00:15:37,541 --> 00:15:40,409
Barnaby, couldn't someone have just been
resting here?
172
00:15:40,410 --> 00:15:43,530
Threw three cigarettes? That would take
a half hour or more.
173
00:15:46,170 --> 00:15:47,220
What's that?
174
00:15:47,610 --> 00:15:48,660
Oil dripping.
175
00:15:53,250 --> 00:15:54,390
No tire tracks.
176
00:15:55,230 --> 00:15:56,350
Wind took care of that.
177
00:16:00,410 --> 00:16:02,590
All we got is a trespasser.
178
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,539
We sat here long enough to smoke three
cigarettes and let his machine drip a
179
00:16:07,540 --> 00:16:08,620
little oil in the sand.
180
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,700
Are you going to be able to fix the
time?
181
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,000
If that's our Mr.
182
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,540
X, he's got a lot more curiosity than
just a trespasser.
183
00:16:56,940 --> 00:16:57,990
Good morning, John.
184
00:16:58,020 --> 00:17:01,630
I got to get my two miles in every day
or go to bed with a guilty conscience.
185
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:05,380
Would your conscience permit accepting a
lift at this point?
186
00:17:05,980 --> 00:17:08,160
If it didn't, it'd be in for an
argument.
187
00:17:21,140 --> 00:17:23,660
You get down this way often?
188
00:17:23,940 --> 00:17:26,220
L .A.? I haven't been down for a year or
so.
189
00:17:26,221 --> 00:17:29,339
It's kind of hard to tear me away from
that city by the bay.
190
00:17:29,340 --> 00:17:31,260
Pacific Western, isn't it? Yeah.
191
00:17:32,180 --> 00:17:33,230
Track, I'll bet.
192
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:35,780
No records, just lots of fun.
193
00:17:36,540 --> 00:17:41,439
That's about the way I went at it. But I
did break the four -minute mile once my
194
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,670
junior year at slavery and college. You
did?
195
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:49,780
Yeah. They had to meet in a county park,
a brand -new quarter -mile oval.
196
00:17:49,781 --> 00:17:53,859
I was quite a hero for about a half an
hour until somebody suggested measuring
197
00:17:53,860 --> 00:17:54,910
the track.
198
00:17:56,330 --> 00:18:01,030
County Commissioner had awarded the
contract to his nearsighted nephew.
199
00:18:01,910 --> 00:18:04,190
The track was 50 yards short.
200
00:18:04,430 --> 00:18:07,490
Oh, that's delicious.
201
00:18:09,381 --> 00:18:15,369
The housekeeper said she hadn't heard
from Francis either.
202
00:18:15,370 --> 00:18:17,850
I can't imagine where she spent the
entire night.
203
00:18:18,950 --> 00:18:21,300
Oh, well, she'll probably call or show
up soon.
204
00:18:21,870 --> 00:18:22,920
Here you are.
205
00:18:23,230 --> 00:18:24,430
Yeah, it looks very good.
206
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,350
I'm the gal who's most efficient in all
things which do not matter.
207
00:18:28,711 --> 00:18:30,779
Miss Lacey.
208
00:18:30,780 --> 00:18:31,940
Oh, Carolyn, please.
209
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,659
I'm not a women's liver, but the miss at
my age is something less than
210
00:18:36,660 --> 00:18:38,400
complimentary. I wouldn't say that.
211
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,779
I was just wondering whether you might
have some information that Mr. Yeager
212
00:18:43,780 --> 00:18:45,890
trouble with one of his employees
lately.
213
00:18:45,891 --> 00:18:48,179
No, I never heard anything like that.
214
00:18:48,180 --> 00:18:50,590
What about his relationship with your
sister?
215
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:56,640
I'm sure Jonathan loved her.
216
00:18:58,520 --> 00:18:59,570
It's for Frances.
217
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,620
I don't think she'll ever change.
218
00:19:02,820 --> 00:19:04,880
She wants what she wants. She gets it.
219
00:19:05,140 --> 00:19:07,960
She grows tired of it and goes on to
something new.
220
00:19:09,420 --> 00:19:12,610
It sounds to me like you expect
something more than an accident.
221
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,940
Well, I can't dismiss that possibility.
222
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:21,380
Then, in fairness to Jonathan, I must
tell you that he...
223
00:19:21,381 --> 00:19:25,419
had become concerned about something in
the last six months. He spent a lot of
224
00:19:25,420 --> 00:19:28,460
time in San Francisco. We'd sometimes
have dinner together.
225
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:35,780
I guess you know that he and I were
something more than just friends.
226
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,340
I didn't know that. It was a long time
ago.
227
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:39,780
Almost seven years.
228
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,559
Oh, I've kind of gotten used to playing
second fiddle where Francis is
229
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:47,610
concerned.
230
00:19:47,660 --> 00:19:51,240
Even as kids. She always ended up with
the nicest toy or...
231
00:19:53,130 --> 00:19:55,420
Be on my father's knee just when I want
it to be.
232
00:19:57,290 --> 00:20:01,570
Anyway, Jonathan said that he and
Frances were having friction.
233
00:20:03,950 --> 00:20:06,570
I think he knew she was having an
affair.
234
00:20:07,090 --> 00:20:08,590
Did he mention the man's name?
235
00:20:08,870 --> 00:20:09,920
No.
236
00:20:11,350 --> 00:20:15,290
He did say that he thought it might be
somebody close to him in the company.
237
00:20:20,490 --> 00:20:21,540
Mr. Jones!
238
00:20:23,191 --> 00:20:26,329
May I speak with you for a moment?
239
00:20:26,330 --> 00:20:27,380
Yes, surely.
240
00:20:27,390 --> 00:20:28,440
Excuse me.
241
00:20:30,110 --> 00:20:34,189
My attorney tells me that your report to
the insurance company is the only thing
242
00:20:34,190 --> 00:20:35,409
that's holding up the check.
243
00:20:35,410 --> 00:20:37,349
Yes, I won't be much longer, Mrs.
Yeager.
244
00:20:37,350 --> 00:20:42,289
I don't mean to be rude, but your
prodding is beginning to make others as
245
00:20:42,290 --> 00:20:43,340
as me nervous.
246
00:20:43,341 --> 00:20:46,949
I have to apologize for that, but I was
just telling your sister that your
247
00:20:46,950 --> 00:20:49,169
husband's death may not have been
accidental.
248
00:20:49,170 --> 00:20:52,969
Mr. Jones, if you're trying to revive
that suicide theory... I never had that
249
00:20:52,970 --> 00:20:54,020
theory.
250
00:20:54,030 --> 00:20:58,229
Now, Mrs. Yeager, what I suspect but
have been unable to prove is that there
251
00:20:58,230 --> 00:21:00,460
another bike rider on the test area that
day.
252
00:21:01,090 --> 00:21:03,570
He caused your husband's bike to go off
the ridge.
253
00:21:04,910 --> 00:21:06,050
Oh, that's ridiculous.
254
00:21:06,470 --> 00:21:10,829
That rider was waiting for some time out
there, hiding and smoking the
255
00:21:10,830 --> 00:21:11,880
cigarette.
256
00:21:21,420 --> 00:21:23,830
anyone who smokes brown cigarettes like
that?
257
00:21:24,980 --> 00:21:26,820
No. No, I don't.
258
00:21:27,580 --> 00:21:28,840
Well, thank you very much.
259
00:21:30,620 --> 00:21:31,670
Bye.
260
00:21:41,060 --> 00:21:42,110
Francis.
261
00:21:43,180 --> 00:21:44,580
Where were you last night?
262
00:21:46,220 --> 00:21:47,320
None of your business.
263
00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:49,440
True, wasn't it?
264
00:21:50,060 --> 00:21:52,410
You've been having an affair for some
time now.
265
00:21:52,460 --> 00:21:53,540
With Steve Rawlings?
266
00:21:53,541 --> 00:21:57,059
Exactly what is it that troubles you? Is
it being one of the have -nots, or is
267
00:21:57,060 --> 00:21:58,110
it something else?
268
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,390
Nothing ever seems to trouble you, does
it?
269
00:22:01,220 --> 00:22:03,140
Johnson's been dead for exactly a week.
270
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:04,340
Perhaps you were right.
271
00:22:04,341 --> 00:22:07,719
Perhaps it would be wiser for you to go
back to San Francisco. As a matter of
272
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,910
fact, why don't you plan on leaving
first thing in the morning?
273
00:22:52,050 --> 00:22:53,270
Please. Hi, beautiful.
274
00:22:58,550 --> 00:23:01,020
Mr. Jones thinks Jonathan may have been
murdered.
275
00:23:05,130 --> 00:23:06,180
What?
276
00:23:08,950 --> 00:23:10,000
Can he prove it?
277
00:23:10,170 --> 00:23:14,149
He said somebody was hiding out at the
testing grounds, waiting to send
278
00:23:14,150 --> 00:23:15,350
crashing off that ridge.
279
00:23:17,679 --> 00:23:20,449
Somebody who smokes the same kind of
cigarettes you do.
280
00:23:23,260 --> 00:23:25,850
Where did you go that day, Steve, after
you left me?
281
00:23:26,100 --> 00:23:27,240
Biking along the coast.
282
00:23:28,120 --> 00:23:29,600
Testing a new needle valve.
283
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,640
Hey, wait a minute.
284
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,980
These cigarettes are found all over
town.
285
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,000
Besides, how long do you have to know
me?
286
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,380
Hmm? Don't you know me well enough?
287
00:23:48,570 --> 00:23:50,910
Hmm? I'm sorry, darling.
288
00:23:51,230 --> 00:23:54,090
I just felt sick when I saw those
cigarettes.
289
00:23:54,490 --> 00:23:55,570
You know what I think?
290
00:23:55,571 --> 00:24:00,269
Friend Jones is just trying to convince
the insurance company that he's worth
291
00:24:00,270 --> 00:24:01,169
the fee.
292
00:24:01,170 --> 00:24:03,990
Wrong theory, gentlemen, but I was in
there pitching.
293
00:24:04,610 --> 00:24:05,660
You know what I mean?
294
00:24:06,310 --> 00:24:09,170
Good days ahead, honey.
295
00:24:32,501 --> 00:24:34,429
Evening, Pete.
296
00:24:34,430 --> 00:24:35,480
Mr. Rollins around?
297
00:24:35,481 --> 00:24:38,989
I don't know if he's gone home or not.
You might look back by his death here,
298
00:24:38,990 --> 00:24:40,430
though. Thanks. I'll try there.
299
00:25:47,649 --> 00:25:51,349
Will that be all, Mrs. Yeager? Yes,
that's fine for tonight. Thank you. Good
300
00:25:51,350 --> 00:25:52,400
night.
301
00:29:21,100 --> 00:29:22,150
Are you home?
302
00:29:32,420 --> 00:29:33,470
Please.
303
00:29:33,620 --> 00:29:34,670
No.
304
00:29:36,980 --> 00:29:38,030
Carolyn.
305
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:41,810
Carolyn.
306
00:29:41,900 --> 00:29:45,080
How does it feel to be on the short end
for a change, Frances?
307
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:46,410
Please, please.
308
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,510
I'm going to tell you how it feels to be
on the winning side for the first time.
309
00:29:51,389 --> 00:29:53,559
Delicious. What can you gain by killing
me?
310
00:29:53,870 --> 00:29:58,770
All that money that should have been
mine seven years ago. No. No!
311
00:30:11,010 --> 00:30:12,090
Morning, Mr. Reynolds.
312
00:30:12,710 --> 00:30:16,560
Morning. I was at your apartment several
times last night, but you weren't in.
313
00:30:16,650 --> 00:30:17,700
I was out riding.
314
00:30:18,350 --> 00:30:19,400
What did you want?
315
00:30:19,660 --> 00:30:24,499
You know, watching the way those cycles
bounce around out there, you'd think
316
00:30:24,500 --> 00:30:26,060
they'd all come in total wrecks.
317
00:30:26,900 --> 00:30:28,400
It's the whole point behind it.
318
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,500
You have special equipment on each bike.
319
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,740
I notice the oil has a kind of a special
tint.
320
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,680
We use synthetic oil with a vegetable
base.
321
00:30:38,460 --> 00:30:42,240
We're just experimenting with one of our
refinery products.
322
00:30:43,820 --> 00:30:45,680
All the bikes use the same kind of oil?
323
00:30:46,100 --> 00:30:50,930
Yes. Mr. Jones, you're not interested in
vegetable oils. Let's get to the point.
324
00:30:51,270 --> 00:30:53,380
Like, what kind of cigarettes do I
smoke?
325
00:30:56,110 --> 00:31:00,769
Well, I think that we can charge that
down to coincidence, as long as you can
326
00:31:00,770 --> 00:31:04,850
explain and account for your time during
the day that Mr.
327
00:31:05,070 --> 00:31:06,120
Yeager was killed.
328
00:31:06,890 --> 00:31:09,130
I was testing this bike along the coast.
329
00:31:09,410 --> 00:31:10,460
Next.
330
00:31:10,730 --> 00:31:11,780
All day?
331
00:31:12,170 --> 00:31:13,220
You got it.
332
00:31:15,850 --> 00:31:18,140
You didn't even stop anywhere for
gasoline?
333
00:31:20,430 --> 00:31:23,190
All right, all right. I was with a woman
part of the day.
334
00:31:24,390 --> 00:31:25,950
And you're not getting her name.
335
00:31:25,951 --> 00:31:29,249
Wouldn't it be the same woman who said
she didn't recognize the kind of
336
00:31:29,250 --> 00:31:30,330
cigarette you smoke?
337
00:31:31,210 --> 00:31:32,260
Goodbye, Mr. Jones.
338
00:31:34,850 --> 00:31:36,170
Oops! Sorry.
339
00:31:38,890 --> 00:31:39,940
That's a clump deal.
340
00:31:40,230 --> 00:31:41,630
I'll clean it. Just let it be.
341
00:31:50,909 --> 00:31:54,910
Oh, by the way, Mr. Rollins, do you own
more than one bike?
342
00:31:55,610 --> 00:31:56,690
I own two bikes.
343
00:31:57,390 --> 00:32:00,870
I mean, I did own two bikes. One was
stolen a few months ago.
344
00:32:01,490 --> 00:32:02,540
Why?
345
00:32:02,750 --> 00:32:03,800
Just curiosity.
346
00:32:04,410 --> 00:32:05,460
Sorry about the oil.
347
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,290
That was a close one. I should have been
watching.
348
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:51,860
Oh, it was my fault.
349
00:32:52,300 --> 00:32:54,160
Maybe I should stick to jogging, huh?
350
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:55,660
You looking for Frances?
351
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:57,500
Yes, I was hoping to talk to her.
352
00:32:58,300 --> 00:33:00,720
I don't think she's home yet.
353
00:33:02,300 --> 00:33:06,540
Mr. Jones, there's something very
peculiar going on.
354
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:08,090
Like what?
355
00:33:08,580 --> 00:33:10,280
I don't know. It's hard to explain.
356
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,220
I think I can name the man that Frances
has been seeing.
357
00:33:15,710 --> 00:33:19,929
At least I saw them together one night,
and the relationship was more than
358
00:33:19,930 --> 00:33:20,980
friendly.
359
00:33:21,790 --> 00:33:22,840
Steve Rollins?
360
00:33:23,790 --> 00:33:24,840
Yes, I've met him.
361
00:33:25,790 --> 00:33:29,830
Well, it didn't take much imagination to
know she was expecting him last night.
362
00:33:31,090 --> 00:33:32,290
What makes you say that?
363
00:33:32,910 --> 00:33:37,189
Oh, about 7 o 'clock, she asked me what
I was planning to do that evening. I
364
00:33:37,190 --> 00:33:40,380
said nothing. She suggested that I take
in a movie at the village.
365
00:33:40,650 --> 00:33:43,670
I took the hint and got home at about
midnight.
366
00:33:45,390 --> 00:33:46,440
But she was gone.
367
00:33:47,490 --> 00:33:50,290
I don't know. It's just all very
strange.
368
00:33:53,350 --> 00:33:54,400
Miss Lacey!
369
00:33:55,410 --> 00:33:57,150
The police just called.
370
00:33:57,650 --> 00:33:58,710
On the beach.
371
00:33:59,510 --> 00:34:00,610
Mrs. Yeager.
372
00:34:01,510 --> 00:34:02,560
Oh, God.
373
00:34:34,730 --> 00:34:38,460
Please, please wait right over here.
There's nothing to do. Please, I can't.
374
00:34:38,610 --> 00:34:41,610
Mr. Jones, I can't believe it.
375
00:34:48,429 --> 00:34:52,448
From the looks of things, I'd say it
happened sometime last night. But I'll
376
00:34:52,449 --> 00:34:53,709
for the coroner's report.
377
00:34:53,710 --> 00:34:57,949
That's a pretty dangerous curve, but
that lady has lived in this neighborhood
378
00:34:57,950 --> 00:34:59,000
for years.
379
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,320
Francis? How'd it happen?
380
00:35:11,580 --> 00:35:13,080
You a friend of Mrs. Yeager's?
381
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:20,000
I'm her husband.
382
00:35:22,580 --> 00:35:24,000
We were married two days ago.
383
00:35:30,460 --> 00:35:33,590
We didn't find anything over there.
Let's take a look over here.
384
00:35:37,670 --> 00:35:40,380
I'm getting tired of hearing about those
cigarettes.
385
00:35:41,290 --> 00:35:45,669
Mr. Rollins, let me tell you again that
you don't have to answer my questions at
386
00:35:45,670 --> 00:35:47,730
all. I didn't say I wouldn't cooperate.
387
00:35:48,550 --> 00:35:52,510
But those cigarette stubs that Jones
found, they could have belonged to
388
00:35:53,770 --> 00:35:56,300
All right, let's get back to this secret
marriage.
389
00:36:00,850 --> 00:36:02,310
Francis wanted it that way.
390
00:36:02,710 --> 00:36:04,630
We were going to have a church ceremony.
391
00:36:05,420 --> 00:36:07,100
After a reasonable amount of time.
392
00:36:08,260 --> 00:36:13,459
You and Mrs. Yeager, before Mr. Yeager's
death... She was ready to ask for a
393
00:36:13,460 --> 00:36:14,510
divorce.
394
00:36:14,511 --> 00:36:18,399
Harvey, what time did you say you made
those phone calls to Mr. Rollins'
395
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,930
apartment? Between 8 and 10 o 'clock
that evening.
396
00:36:22,100 --> 00:36:24,400
I got back around 11 o 'clock.
397
00:36:24,401 --> 00:36:28,519
But you can't account for the time
except for saying that you were out
398
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:29,559
riding a bike.
399
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,899
That's right. I set Thursday evenings
aside so I could night test the bike
400
00:36:33,900 --> 00:36:35,879
been modifying for the past four months.
401
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:40,199
I sent those... I sent those reports to
our Dayton engineers every Friday
402
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,279
morning. Now you could check the company
records.
403
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:46,459
In other words, you just take any
Thursday night at random and you're
404
00:36:46,460 --> 00:36:48,870
somewhere riding a motorcycle along a
highway.
405
00:36:51,500 --> 00:36:52,880
That's right, that's right.
406
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,140
Well, now, didn't you tell Mr. Jones
that I...
407
00:36:57,470 --> 00:36:59,390
Back injury prevents you from riding?
408
00:36:59,570 --> 00:37:02,820
Only on the desert course, I believe, is
the way Mr. Rollins put it.
409
00:37:04,090 --> 00:37:06,150
I don't have a problem with a normal
run.
410
00:37:10,490 --> 00:37:13,570
Let's get back to the day Jonathan
Yeager was killed.
411
00:37:15,030 --> 00:37:16,090
I was with Francis.
412
00:37:16,530 --> 00:37:17,610
Can you verify it?
413
00:37:20,370 --> 00:37:21,710
No, we were alone.
414
00:37:24,410 --> 00:37:26,150
Found it in the garden, Lieutenant.
415
00:37:26,410 --> 00:37:29,240
It appears to be bloodstained and has
the initial R on it.
416
00:37:29,630 --> 00:37:30,680
Did you say R?
417
00:37:31,701 --> 00:37:33,569
That's right.
418
00:37:33,570 --> 00:37:35,989
We'll get it to the lab and have them
check it for latent prints.
419
00:37:35,990 --> 00:37:39,009
Of course there's going to be prints on
it. That's mine. Don't you see there's
420
00:37:39,010 --> 00:37:41,310
my mark on it? It's been taken from my
house.
421
00:37:41,750 --> 00:37:44,170
I'd be... Don't you see I'm being
framed?
422
00:37:48,610 --> 00:37:50,430
I'm not saying anything from here on.
423
00:37:51,790 --> 00:37:53,530
My lawyer will do the talking for me.
424
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,080
That was quite a dessert.
425
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:11,600
I admire your appetite.
426
00:38:11,601 --> 00:38:16,179
It's something I inherited. I think I
could just gorge myself on all kinds of
427
00:38:16,180 --> 00:38:17,380
goodies and not gain an L.
428
00:38:17,860 --> 00:38:22,899
You know, Carolyn, I'm glad to see that
you're not too disappointed that Steve
429
00:38:22,900 --> 00:38:25,880
Rollins could be in control of the
Yeager Company now.
430
00:38:25,881 --> 00:38:29,719
Except for the fact that he married
Frances, that would all be yours.
431
00:38:29,720 --> 00:38:32,010
Unless, of course, he is convicted of
murder.
432
00:38:32,380 --> 00:38:35,880
Mr. Jones, I can't give a thought to
what I might have gained.
433
00:38:35,881 --> 00:38:40,299
That old conscience of mine keeps
telling me what's not freely given does
434
00:38:40,300 --> 00:38:41,350
belong to me.
435
00:38:41,740 --> 00:38:43,910
That's a pretty good philosophy to live
by.
436
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:48,540
But, Thay, Steve may be perfectly
innocent.
437
00:38:49,100 --> 00:38:53,000
I mean, why would he leave so many
obvious clues behind?
438
00:38:53,900 --> 00:38:58,640
Well, one explanation could be that
intelligent people do not commit murder.
439
00:38:59,220 --> 00:39:03,880
Oh, they may be clever, but they mistake
their cleverness for intelligence.
440
00:39:04,650 --> 00:39:07,900
Forgetting that they're not allowed one
mistake, not one error.
441
00:39:08,770 --> 00:39:12,020
Forgetting that they have to shut out
the other side completely.
442
00:39:12,050 --> 00:39:14,650
A lopsided score is just not good
enough.
443
00:39:15,170 --> 00:39:19,730
If Steve is guilty, if he made so many
mistakes,
444
00:39:20,030 --> 00:39:24,210
he might still have that other bike
somewhere.
445
00:39:24,550 --> 00:39:28,589
Wherever it is, it would have to be
proven that he was the only person who
446
00:39:28,590 --> 00:39:30,330
access to that particular place.
447
00:39:32,670 --> 00:39:33,720
You ready?
448
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,579
Looks like Steve Rollins is home scot
-free. First thing he would do would be
449
00:39:46,580 --> 00:39:49,300
get rid of that... Wait a minute.
450
00:39:51,060 --> 00:39:52,320
Why would he get rid of it?
451
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:56,459
He didn't know until after he was
arrested that we could match the oil
452
00:39:56,460 --> 00:39:57,960
from the drippings in the bank.
453
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:00,610
I've got a thought.
454
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,690
This affair between Steve and Francis
has been going on for some time.
455
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:07,400
Where would they have been meeting?
456
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:09,480
Yeah, I see what you mean.
457
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:13,739
They couldn't use his apartment. His
bike riders might come charging in any
458
00:40:13,740 --> 00:40:14,739
moment.
459
00:40:14,740 --> 00:40:17,980
And I can't imagine Francis going in and
out of motels.
460
00:40:19,460 --> 00:40:20,860
Yeah. Hideaway?
461
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,330
Yeah, he could have kept the other
motorcycle there.
462
00:40:25,331 --> 00:40:27,079
Sure something to think about.
463
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,630
That'd be like finding the proverbial
needle in the haystack, right?
464
00:40:32,660 --> 00:40:33,800
Thanks for everything.
465
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,020
Give my love to San Francisco.
466
00:40:36,380 --> 00:40:37,520
I will. Bye -bye.
467
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,120
You'll be needing a lift back.
468
00:43:08,300 --> 00:43:11,610
Thought I'd save you the trouble of
calling a cab from the highway.
469
00:43:15,700 --> 00:43:17,380
What'd you learn about the house?
470
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,090
Yesterday, telephone numbers in your
sister's address book.
471
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:22,800
You're right, Mr. Jones.
472
00:43:23,940 --> 00:43:25,000
Got to be a game.
473
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:27,820
I forgot no error is allowed.
474
00:44:08,110 --> 00:44:09,160
If I sit a minute?
475
00:44:12,110 --> 00:44:16,130
Did you, uh... Did you know it was me
all along?
476
00:44:16,630 --> 00:44:18,980
Not until they found that wrench in the
garden.
477
00:44:19,450 --> 00:44:23,769
After that, Lieutenant Vittle and I
decided not to look at convenient clues
478
00:44:23,770 --> 00:44:26,420
just start looking for the one who would
profit most.
479
00:44:26,510 --> 00:44:27,630
How simple is that?
480
00:44:27,631 --> 00:44:29,229
Not quite.
481
00:44:29,230 --> 00:44:33,080
Remember the day you were riding your
bike and we almost ran into each other?
482
00:44:33,081 --> 00:44:37,289
I couldn't get that out of my mind all
day, the way you handled your bike like
483
00:44:37,290 --> 00:44:38,340
you were born on one.
484
00:44:38,510 --> 00:44:43,510
We checked the dirt motorcycle tracks in
San Francisco. They knew Carolyn Lacey,
485
00:44:43,710 --> 00:44:48,489
the one who always rented the highest
-powered motorcycle and drove like a
486
00:44:48,490 --> 00:44:52,950
fanatic. One track owner said like she
was training for the race of her life.
487
00:45:08,590 --> 00:45:11,770
That bit of play acting you did in your
office.
488
00:45:13,630 --> 00:45:16,310
You must feel pretty smug about it all,
huh?
489
00:45:16,730 --> 00:45:20,570
No, as a matter of fact, I feel pretty
sad about it all.
