Tonight's episode, The Medium.

Yes, Norman Finch. How are you, Miss
Grayson? Yes. Nice to see you. Nice to

you. Well, I think we've found just the
house you've been looking for. Oh, I

hope so. I'm getting a little anxious to
move.

Only, uh, I don't understand why Mr.

Balford sent an associate.

He's always taken me out himself.

Well, it's like I said.

Tom's going to be tied up most of the
day with an apartment building, and, uh,

since he didn't want you to miss this
hot new listing... Oh, I understand,

but... Look, if you're worried about the
commission, please don't, because he's

going to get it. I'm just sort of
helping out.

House really as nice as you say.

Miss Grayson, I think you're about to
become a proud new homeowner.

What beautiful flowers.

Oh, they're nice, aren't they? Sunset
flowers, part of the hibiscus family.

Mr. Finch, are you sure you're taking me
to the right house?

Yes, ma 'am. Wait till you see it. It's
beautiful.

What I mean is, I made it very clear to
Mr. Balfour that I wanted to stay in the

city. Just a little bit farther.

I'm telling you, you're wasting your
time.

I don't think so, Miss Grace.

All right, Mr. Finch, I want you to turn
around this minute.

Do you hear me?

If you don't turn around...

You're going to love the house, Miss
Grayson.

You'll see.

We're here.

Who are you?

What do you want from me?

Isn't it everything I said it was?

Let's take a look at it

There's nowhere to run, Linda.

Nowhere. And no one can hear you up
here.

Please, please don't hurt me.

I want you to stay here with me, Linda.

Don't.

You're never going to leave me again.

I don't.

Mr. Jones, did you read where another
woman disappeared yesterday?

Yes, Linda Grayson.

We were just speaking about it before
you came in.

Counting my sister Julia, that makes
three women in the past five weeks.

Well, Father Donovan, people disappear
every day for a lot of reasons.

Yeah, but they don't usually leave their
cars behind.

This Linda Grayson left hers in the
garage.

My sister's was found in the park where
we were supposed to meet and have a

picnic.

The Harris girl left hers in a shopping
center. J .R., I know something about

runaways. That's just not their pattern.

Father, we haven't ruled out a possible
connection between the three. We just

haven't found one yet.

Or anything that might lead us to your
sister.

Well, maybe it's time to try another
approach.

That, uh, psychic I read about.

Oh, you've got to be kidding. You mean
Cleo da Vinci? All right, J .R., I know

it sounds crazy.

But 15 years ago, when she was just
nine, she helped solve a series of

disappearances that had the St. Louis
police baffled for almost a year.

Mr. Jones, unless you have a better
idea, I'm willing to try anything to

Julie. Betty, have you been able to
locate this Cleo Da Vinci?

Yes, she's living at the beach. I have
her address in my file.

Mr. Vinci?

Cleo?

Cleo da Vinci?

Hello, sweetheart.

Well, don't just stand there like a coat
rack.

Make yourself useful for a change. Here,
hold this while I get them something to

drink. Listen, the door was open, so I
just came in. I wanted to see if you

home. Would you believe I got there just
in the nick of time?

The animal shelter?

Mom's shelter.

Three days and it's goodbye world.

But do they care? I mean, really, the
people that run the place?

Does anyone really care?

Beautiful furry creatures running around
getting the short end of the stick.

And that goes for the whale, too. Here.

I'm sorry I left my other hand in the
office.

Put it down.

You are useless.

Useless?

I know the whale isn't a furry creature,
but here. Just put it in his mouth.

He'll know what to do with it. But he is
an endangered species all the same.

The whale.

The whale, the condor, the cheetah.

All those beautiful animals disappearing
right before our very eyes.

And what are you doing about it? I mean,
what are you really doing about it?

Well, let's see. I gave ten bucks to
help stop the slaughter of baby seals.

Well, at least that's something.

Oh, that's really something.

I mean, that's something to be proud of.

And because you are a moon child, I'm
only going to charge you $25 for a half

-hour reading.

I usually get 30.

Da Vinci, I'm not here to have my
fortune told.

I was beginning to sense that.

My name is J .R. Jones.

I work for a private investigator,
Barnaby Jones.

See, and what we're doing is we're
looking into the disappearance of a

named Julie Donovan.

So why come to me?

Well, it wasn't my idea, that's for
sure. It's just that our client read an

article about you somewhere about how...

You once used your psychic power to
solve a similar case.

And he believed it?

J .R., P .T. was right. There's one born
every minute.

You mean it wasn't true?

Oh, I helped solve the case, but it
wasn't psychic. It was luck.

Everyone in St. Louis was guessing about
the disappearances.

My guess turned out to be right.

So, in other words, there's no ESP,
there's no clairvoyance, there's

Are you kidding?

If I had those kind of powers, I
wouldn't be telling fortunes. I'd be

them. Do you know how expensive it is
trying to save all the endangered

of the world?

I can imagine.

That's why I haven't any time to worry
about something not running around in a

station wagon.

What? Hey, maybe you know somebody who'd
like to adopt Napoleon.

Napoleon?

Not on hand, no hand.

Oh, am I interrupting anything?

No, Chuck, come on in.

I think he has a broken wing. Oh, poor
baby.

Oh, Cleo will make you feel better.

Oh, Chuck, this is J .R. Jones.

Hi, glad to meet you. Glad to meet you,
too. Thank you very much, Cleo. Oh, you

won't forget about Napoleon.

Barnaby! How'd you do with the Da Vinci
girl?

No, $3 bill, Barnaby. Cute, you know, in
a nutty kind of way, but definitely a

$3 bill.

And that St. Louis case?

She admits it was a lucky guess, like I
said.

How'd you do here? Have any luck?

Nothing to connect this disappearance
with Julie Donovan's. Looks like we're

right back where we started.

Barnaby, I think we may have something.

What is it?

One of the neighbors saw Linda Grayson
drive off with a man yesterday

A neighbor spent the night with her
daughter -in -law, so she just heard

the disappearance.

Could you identify him?

No, she didn't really get a look at him,
but she described the car as a brown

station wagon.

A what?

Brown station wagon, a few years old.

I listened to my horoscope today. It
told me not to get out of bed. Cleo, how

did you know? Know what?

You said you didn't have time to worry
about some nut running around in a

station wagon.

I don't. All right. Well, yesterday,
another woman disappeared with a guy in

brown station wagon. Now, how did you
know?

I must have read it in the paper.

It wasn't in the papers, Cleo. Well,
then it was a lucky guess.

Oh, come on. Nobody can be that lucky.

Look, just do me a favor.

Tell that priest I'm sorry, but I don't
know anything about his sister. Wait a

minute. Wait a minute.

Are you doing a number on me?

A number?

Yeah, you just did it again. I didn't
say anything about a priest or his

Where are you going?

Cleo, wait a... Wait, wait, wait.

Oh,

all right, Cleo. Maybe it's luck or
maybe... Maybe you have some kind of a

Well, thank you, J .R.

Now tell me where I can return it.

Why?

Because it's a bummer.

Look, you don't always see the things
you want.

I can't help you, J .R.

All right, all right, all right, all
right. I'll make a deal.

You help me out just this once.

And I'll make sure that Napoleon gets a
good home.

You?

I didn't say that.

No deal.

All right, all right, all right. With
me, with me, yes.

And you'll be good to him?

I'll treat him like an emperor.

Well, all right.

I put that weather stripping you ordered
in the garage.

Thanks, Sam.

Is that a new bed of flowers?

Yes, it is. I just finished planting
them.

You sure spend a lot of time on this
garden.

Gives me something to do.

Yeah, I guess it does get pretty lonely
living up here all by yourself.

You know what you need, Norman? A good
woman to keep you company.

I'm still married, Sam.

I know, but... But what?

Well, everyone knows how your wife ran
off with that car salesman. You wouldn't

have any trouble getting a divorce.

Unless you're hoping she's coming back.

No, the only time I want to see her
again is at her funeral.

Well, maybe someday you'll change your
mind.

What did you call them again?

Sunset flowers.

The Indians used to consider them
sacred.

They sure are pretty.

See you later.

It's no good, J .R. I'm not feeling
anything.

Maybe you're trying too hard. I'm not
trying too hard.

Don't shout.

I am not trying too hard. I'm just not
picking up on any vibrations.

Are you sure this is the spot? Yes, I am
positive Julie Donovan was supposed to

meet her brother here. The place has got
to be filled with vibrations.

Well, they're not coming through.

J .R., take me home.

Oh, come on, Cleo.

J .R., I am not a radio. You can't just
turn me on and off.

Either I feel something or I don't. And
this time...

J .R., there's something.

Bad package.

No, don't touch it.

It's a cover up behind.

Right. No, don't open it.

Bad.

Red.

A blanket. Yes, Julie.

It was spread out underneath this tree.

That's right, that's right. This is
where Father Donovan said he found it.

She was sitting here.

You can tell that?

She was happy.

And then?

What, then what, what?

It got dark. It got dark. It was around
noon. She turned.

Maybe there was a man shadowing the sun
behind her. I feel her becoming afraid.

That's when he must have grabbed her.
No.

Well, you said.

She begins to run.

No, don't leave me.

Right.

Right.

This is where she stopped, JR.

Well, yeah, there's a stream. She
couldn't go any farther.

What is it, Clue? Tell me what you're
feeling.

There's something in this dream.

Near that rock.

I found something.

What is it?

Well, it looks like a pencil.

All that?

for a pencil?

Wannabe, she's incredible.

I mean, at first, you know, she didn't
feel anything.

But then she saw that blanket and pow,
it was like she was there.

I don't know how she does it.

Sounds like you're changing your tune a
little bit, Jedediah. Well, I still

don't believe in all that psychic stuff,
but Cleo's got some kind of a gift or

something.

It's all in that, J .R. Don't let it
fool you.

Got some lettering on it. Looks like
part of a name.

T -E -R Hardware Company.

No phone number or address?

I can't make it out.

But I'll have Betty check out all the
hardware stores ending in T -E -R.

Oh, uh, in the meantime, I have
discovered that Linda Grayson was in the

for a house.

I don't get the connection between that
and Julie Deniman's disappearance.

Never can tell. It's worth looking into.

All right, we'll check it out. In the
meantime...

You and I are going to get something to
eat. I'm starving.

You're starved? What about Napoleon?

Napoleon?

Long story, Barnaby.

Long, long story.

J .R., where do you keep the granola?

I don't.

Am I doing this wrong?

No.

You're doing it perfect.

In fact, you look like you should have a
baby in your arms.

How come you're not married?

Oh, don't be timid. You want to pry, go
right ahead.

Well, why beat around the bush?

I know. Married and divorced, right?

Wrong.

I guess I've just been too busy.

Maybe I haven't found the right girl.
How come you're not married?

Me? No, thanks.

Every time I get involved, something
always goes wrong.

Speak of what? Well, somewhere along the
way to the altar, I flash on what it'd

be like in the future, and in one word,
J .R., boring.

You see, I have this terrible disease.

It doesn't look like it's affected your
appetite.

No, really.

I break out in a rash every time I feel
locked in or trapped.

I am serious.

It all started at Duke.

Duke?

Aiming the university?

Mm -hmm.

They sent me to the Institute of
Parapsychology right after I helped

murder case.

Doctors were studying me.

I'd probably still be there if my folks
hadn't come to the rescue.

But from that time on, I just have to
think about spending my life in a square

box. I just itch all over.

Where are your folks now?

They're dead.

I'm sorry.

Oh, J .R., I just can't believe that you
eat this junk.

Well, actually, I'm thinking of giving
it up. Well, good for you.

Hello? J .R., I found four hardware
stores ending with the letters T -E -R.

Have you a pencil?

Yeah, Betty, hold on.

Okay, go ahead.

Two to go.

Carter Hardware.

How much do you want to make a bet this
is it?

That's what you said about Carter's
inventors.

Well, you gotta be right sometimes.

J .R.

This is the place.

Can I help you?

Yeah, yeah. My name is J .R. Jones.

I work for a private investigator.

I was wondering if you could tell me if
this pencil came from your store.

Sure, it looks like one of ours.

We give them away.

Do you give them to all your customers?

No, they're kind of expensive.

It's a construction pencil.

Then you give them to people in the
building industry, carpenters and

contractors, that kind of thing.

Yeah, that's right.

They're our bread and butter.

Here's one.

Well,

that's the same shape and the same
color. I'm sure it's one of ours. I

give away a lot of them.

Yeah, a couple hundred a month.

Why? Well, actually, what we're looking
for here is a needle in a haystack, a

guy who might have one of these pencils
who drives a brown station wagon.

Do any of your customers have a brown
station wagon?

Who knows what they drive? I hardly even
get out of the store except to go home

at night.

What's this all about?

Well, several women have disappeared
over the last several weeks, and we're

looking into the case.

I felt something. What?

I don't know.

Some kind of danger. Where?

Back there.

You sure it was here?

I'm telling you, I felt it, J .R. It was
some kind of a danger, some kind of

evil.

I don't feel it anymore.

Come on.

Cleo, these vibrations that you get, did
you ever have a false reading?

Yeah, J .R., that's probably what it
was.

Hi, beautiful.

How are you feeling?

You know better.

Cleo.

J .R., I can't help you anymore.

Why not? I know we're on to something.

Look, it's taking too much of my time. I
have my business to run.

What, telling fortunes?

Yes, telling fortunes.

Look, a lot of people depend upon me.

In fact, I have a client coming over
this afternoon.

Cleo, what's wrong?

I just don't like this psychic stuff.

Why? I told you, it's a bummer.

Some of the things I see hurt.

What do you mean they hurt? Like what?

Like losing your mother and father.

Is that what happened?

Looked to leave me alone.

Cleo, you foresaw the death of your
parents?

Yes, I did.

It helps to talk about it.

Right after they rescued me from Duke
University, I

joined the act.

Ah, yes.

Princess Cleopatra Child, psychic
extraordinaire.

That's right.

The article I read said that you became
the hottest act on the carnival circuit.

You bet we did.

Even bigger than Danny and his dancing
dogs.

And then one day I had this vision.

Of what?

I flashed on a storm, and I heard
screaming, and I knew something terrible

going to happen, but it was this
beautiful day.

My parents promised they'd be back in an
hour or so, and on their way home,

there was this freak thunderstorm, and
the cars skidded

off into a...

Flooded river.

I'm sorry.

I had no idea.

Now do you know how I feel?

Yeah, yeah, but it wasn't your fault.

And what's the use of seeing things in
the future if you can't do anything

it? But sometimes you can, Cleo. That's
what we're trying to do here, prevent

more disappearances. Look. J .R., look,
I know how important this case is to

you, but right now I've got to be alone.

Okay. How about dinner?

I never planned my life that far in
advance.

Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were
so jumpy.

Chuck, are there any cannons around
here?

Cannons?

Well, the only one I know about is the
one up at the state park.

Oh, that's right.

What time is it? Do you think it's still
open?

No, it closes at five o 'clock. Hey,
hey, lighten up.

Relax.

Maybe you're right.

You know I'm right.

Hey, um...

Why don't we go watch the sunset over a
couple of frozen daiquiris?

Oh, terrific.

Hey, come on. I'll race you. All right.

I have the feeling you were expecting
someone else.

I was born to be Cleo.

I've been trying to reach her all
evening. To tell you the truth, I'm a

worried about her.

Anything I can do?

No, thanks. I'll wait a while. Anything
new on your end?

Yes, I think we're on the right track
looking for a man in the construction

business. A girl who worked with Julie
Donovan said that there had been some

remodeling going on in the office at the
time of her disappearance.

Well, look, maybe the guy was working
there.

And he overheard Julie making plans for
the picnic.

And he knew she was going to get there
early to set things up and just followed

her to the park.

That's the way I figured it.

Do we know the name of the construction
company?

Not yet, but you're going to check it
out in the morning.

In the meantime, I'm going to see if
there was any construction work going on

Linda Grayson's immediate vicinity.

If so,

this could be the connection we've been
looking for.

Okay, Barnaby, I'll talk to you later.

Right. Bye.

Your local crystal ball representative?

Very funny. Where have you been all
night?

Why? Because I said I'd call you later.

Well, I didn't say I'd be there, did I?

No, you didn't. I can't argue that.

But you might be curious to know that I
was worried about you.

Hey, I kind of like that.

J .R., what does a cannon mean to you?

A cannon?

Wait a minute, wait a minute. Did you
flash on something again?

Yeah, well, I was out jogging. I saw a
cannon, and there were bodies underneath

it. You mean bodies buried beneath the
cannon?

Well, I don't know, but there is an old
cannon up at the state park.

Yeah, I know the one.

Well, do you think we should have a look
at it?

First thing in the morning. Look, it's
still early, and there's this terrific

little restaurant down the block.

I've eaten.

You've eaten.

Yeah, Chuck and I had dinner before he
dropped me off.

You had dinner with Chuck and I've been
waiting here all this time?

Well, it was his idea.

I mean, look, if you're worried about
driving me home, I could take a bus or

something. Oh, no, you're not. Not at
this hour.

But you just said it was still early.

Still early for dinner, but not to catch
a bus or something.

Oh.

Well, I suppose you have something
better in mind?

Well, you could stay here.

Being a sidekick, you think I would have
guessed that.

Don't get me wrong, I'll sleep on the
couch.

J .R., if I decide to stay here, you
won't have to sleep on the couch.

Oh, Delilah.

Delilah. The seagull. She has to take
her medicine every four hours.

Are you telling me the truth?

The scout's on her.

All right, come on, Florence
Nightingale, I'll drive you home.

J .R., there's something inside.

I know, half of the Los Angeles Zoo.

No, that feeling I had at the hardware
store, it's back.

All right.

Just wait right here. J .R., please.

I'm afraid.

Let's call the police.

Look, how are we going to explain a
psychic flash, huh?

What if we're wrong?

You just wait here. I'll be okay.

In five seconds, call the police.

And I'm a whole lot smarter, too.

You mean you gotta look at him? No, no.

But I'm never gonna doubt one of your
flashes again. That's for sure.

There's nobody here messing around this
one. We keep a close watch on this

facility. Okay, thank you.

Sorry, JR, but I know I flashed on
somebody somewhere beneath the cannon.

Well, you don't have to convince me.

Probably just have the wrong cannon.

Well, thanks for your vote of
confidence.

I'm gonna go home.

Uh, not after what happened last night,
you're not.

Oh, look, I'm sure I'll be all right.

Leo, we don't know that.

Hey, your name Jedediah?

Yeah.

There's a Barnaby on the phone for you.
Thank you.

Thank you.

Barnaby! How's it going?

Uh, well, we struck out. Do you have any
luck?

Yes. Betty found the name of the
construction company that did the

Julie Donovan's office.

It's Dorsey Construction, Pico, and West
Third.

They also did some work for the real
estate company that Linda Grayson was

dealing with. Well, that's great. That's
great. It looks like the pieces are

finally starting to fit in together. How
about if I meet you there?

Right. Talk to you later. Goodbye.

Yeah, I remember these two jobs, Mr.
Jones. Do you remember how many men you

used?

Offhand, I'd say I contracted 25,

30. Some of them worked one job, some
the other. Some of them worked both of

them. I'm interested in the ones that
worked both.

Do you have their names?

Sure do.

Every job I ever did is listed in these
two registers.

And everyone who worked on it is listed
below.

All you have to do is match them up.

Thank you.

Harvey, I'm sorry I took so long.

Looks like you're just in time. Take
your pick.

Ever think about entering a walk -a
-thon?

I'm sorry, Betty. It's just that I'm not
used to flowers.

Why don't we really like some deep...
What is it, Cleo?

Flowers, Betty.

What, is there something wrong? What?

Betty, can you get JR on the phone for
me?

Yes, but I... Betty, please, I've got to
talk to him right now.

All right.

All right, let's see. 2, 4, 5, 8, 10,
12, 14, 15 men who work both jobs.

Dorsey Construction.

Now we've got to find out which ones
were customers of the hardware store.

Uh, one second.

Uh, JR?

Yeah.

Thank you.

Hello?

J .R., that cannon?

Yeah, what about it? It's above some
flowers.

Flowers? Are you sure?

I know it sounds crazy, but that's where
it is.

Listen, we're on our way to Corridor
Hardware. Why don't you meet us there?

I'm on my way.

Eight names, Barnaby. Why don't we split
it right down the middle?

What are you going to do about the trio?

Oh! I forgot.

Well, some of these names are pretty
nearby. Why don't I check them out and

back? You remember the girl that was
here yesterday with me?

Are you kidding?

Would you ask her to wait for me?

It's your thing.

Thank you.

You have any luck?

Nope, not yet.

Cleo inside?

Nope, she never showed up.

She never showed up?

That's strange.

You mind if I use your phone?

No, go ahead. You know where it is.
Thank you.

Barnaby Jones Investigations, may I help
you?

Betty, how long ago did Cleo leave?

Well, she left right after she talked to
you. Don't tell me she isn't there yet.

No, she's not.

I wonder if her moped broke down. Did
you say anything before she left?

Well, nothing except, um, sunset
flowers.

Sunset flowers?

Mm -hmm. She got this strange look in
her eyes, said, sunset flowers, and then

left. Okay, Betty, thank you. I'll talk
to you later.

Did you ever hear of sunset flowers?

Matter of fact, I have.

They're kind of rare.

We carry lots of flower seeds here, but
not those.

Any of them grow around here?

There happens to be, yeah. One of our
customers grows.

Who is it? What's his name?

Norman Finch.

Thank you.

When Barnaby gets back, would you tell
him I went to Norman Finch's? Sure.

you.

Thank you.

You are going to believe this, but J .R.
is here.

I don't want to hurt you.

Look, I have this power.

Is ESP clairvoyant?

I just want you to stay here with me.

Get in jail!

She's right. Why don't you just put that
thing down, okay?

You're not going to stop me with that
stick.

Cleo, stay back!

You two all right?

Yeah, we're all right.

Where'd you put the women, Finch?

They're underneath the flowerbed,
Barnaby.

A day at the beach sounds very relaxing.

Sure does, but with Cleo, you never can
tell.

Well, I am starved. I'll tell you, if
she doesn't get here soon, I'm going to

expire.

Hi, everybody.

Hi.

I'm sorry I'm late, but I had to wait
for the man to finish this.

What is it?

Well, how do you like it?

Cleo, I already have a job. Boss, tell
her. That's true, Cleo. He already has a

job. Well, don't you see, J .R. and I
make a natural team.

Cleo, I take the bar soon.

J .R., about the bar.

Forget it.

Oh, come on. I got it licked. I'm not
going to flunk out, am I?

Uh, no, not really.

All right. Uh, maybe you'd like it
better like this.

Huh? Uh -uh. No. Well, J .R., just think
it over. But I just know we're going to

become partners.

Barnaby, you look like the kind of man
who's just going to love Charlamagne.

Charlamagne? Mm -hmm.

Let's see here. She is a cutie.

Charlotte.

Yeah.

Does she know something about Barnaby
that we don't? Oh, yeah, yeah. Listen, I

bet you ten to one that Barnaby will
soon be snuggling up to a beautiful,

-eyed iguana.

Iguana. Iguana.

I love you
