Ladies and gentlemen, just look at my client.

Samuel E. Viscard, loyal husband, loving father.

But today, the assistant district attorney wants you to put this man in

for the rest of his life.

And why?

Well, simply because of a few bad apples in his organization.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Judge Steigler, I say to all of you, if ye be

blameless, Cast the first stone.

But if not, well, I think you know the rest.

If ye be blameless, five murders, seven

kidnappings, 23 counts of extortion and racketeering, and all these charges

Sammy Viscardi claims that he didn't know.

His employees were committing these terrible crimes. When on each of these

crimes, Mr. Viscardi had both motive and opportunity, and he was simply

directing his lackeys to carry out his dirty work.

The defense suggests that only the blameless are fit to cast the first

Well, I agree.

We here are blameless of the crimes that Mr. Viscardi has committed, and it

doesn't take a saint to figure out that he's guilty.

All you have to do is look at the facts.

Thank you, Assistant DA Walker.

Jury deliberations will begin as soon as I issue instructions.

Joe Lewis.

Donna Dragon Wilson. Howard the Flash Jackson.

Superfoot Wallace.

Unbelievable. They're all going to be here this weekend, right, Walker?

Yep.

Wow, the World Kickboxing Championships in Dallas this weekend, and all these

legends are going to be here at the same time watching. I've never seen you guys

so excited.

Well, who wouldn't be?

Are you kidding me? I grew up watching these guys fight. I would love to work

out with these guys. Oh, me too.

Well, they're going to be training at the Ranger Gym. Go ask them.

You know, I think I'll go to the courthouse, see how the trial's going.

Look at this guy right here. That guy got hurt.

Madam foreperson, have you reached a verdict?

Yes, we have, Your Honor.

The defendant will please rise.

And how do you find?

On the count of conspiracy to commit murder, we find the defendant guilty.

On the count of conspiracy to commit mayhem, we find the defendant guilty.

On the count of kidnapping, we find the defendant guilty.

On the count of extortion, we find the defendant guilty.

On the count of racketeering, we find the defendant guilty.

Order.

Sentencing will be tomorrow morning at 9 a .m.

Court is adjourned.

Congratulations.

I'm so glad it's over.

Damn. You really stuck it to your old man.

You're now the head of the organization, Michael.

What are your plans?

I've got plans, Skaggs.

Believe me, I've got plans.

Are you kidding me? I slept in this morning.

Yeah, I spent the last four hours shopping.

But believe me, after a week of hearing all those horrible things that Sam

Viscardi did, I think I deserve a little me time.

Okay, I'll see ya.

In the eyes of a ranger, the unsuspecting stranger had better know

of wrong from right.

Cause the eyes of the ranger are upon you.

Any long you do, he's gonna see.

When you're in Texas, look behind you.

Cause that's where the ranger's gonna be.

Witnesses said she came flying out over the edge, hit the ground, end of story.

Anyone see her before she went over? Not that we can find.

Shoppers are too busy looking for sales.

Small security's too busy looking for shoplifters.

Her name's Connie Gibson.

Walker, isn't that the... Yeah, the head jury on the Viscardi trial.

I'll get the coroner to check the file of plague at forensic to search the

she fell from.

You think she was murdered?

Maybe.

Donnie, put the script down, man. Let's work out.

Come on.

Come on.

Get going, man.

That'll work.

Mr. Wilson.

Hi, I'm sorry to bother you. My name's Gage, and this is my partner, Sidney

Cook. Hi.

You don't think it'd be too much trouble if we watched you work out, would you?

Sure. But call me Don.

And you're more than welcome to watch. In fact, you're welcome to work out with

us.

Hey, guys. These are Rangers Gage and Cook.

Hey, how you doing?

Pleasure to meet you, sir. Pleasure to meet you.

How are you? Very nice to meet you.

So, Don, I got to tell you, that was amazing how you came out of retirement

99 and take the title back from Dick Kimber.

And,

Joe,

how about that bout with Melvin Cole?

You crushed it. Him in the fourth round.

Hey.

And Bill, I will never forget that combination that you used to take down

Kohler.

Phenomenal. I think it's great.

Howard fight with Tabata.

What a relentless exchange of blows that was. That was incredible.

He

remembered

all that.

Well, Gage, you do have a good memory, but let's work out.

Okay.

Got your forensics and coroner report.

Connie Gibson's injuries were inconsistent with a simple fault.

Any idea what caused it?

Yep.

A new cobalt blue LeSabre.

Forensics found car headlight glass and chipped auto paint on the rail she went

over. Said the car went right forward. Wasn't an accident.

So it was murder.

Was the car stolen?

The new one was stolen the morning of the killing.

I put Sidney and Gage on it.

Okay.

Hey.

Hi.

I've got some bad news.

Connie Gibson, the head juror at your trial, she was killed this morning.

Oh, no.

And I think it's related to the Viscardi conviction.

What makes you think that?

At the end of the trial, I saw Sammy Viscardi nod to his son.

I didn't know what it meant at the time, but now I think I do.

You think Michael Viscardi is seeking revenge for the convictions?

That's how I see it.

Do you really think that his son would do something like that?

Yeah, I do, Alex.

And I'm arranging protection for you and everyone connected to the trial.

I want you to contact him, okay?

Your dog.

He never sees.

He's got to go.

Pile up.

He takes a drink.

Bummel up there.

Talk to him on the phone.

He'll kill you.

Four -legged wonder.

What would be paid to thunder?

Call him mad and lose a son. If he finds you mad, you're done. Like a young dog.

Gosh.

You're kidding me.

We are never going to find this car.

Fine, Gage. The day is young now.

Well, considering this is the last stop on our list, I'm thinking we're pretty

much cooked.

I'm getting a good feeling about this.

Want to put ten bucks on that?

You're on.

Fair enough.

You don't say.

You don't say.

Hey.

Hey, who are you talking to?

My mother.

What do you want?

Have you seen a new little saber come through here?

No. No.

It's funny. He just didn't seem like he thought about that before he answered,

did he? Don't you need to check a log or something?

I'm a businessman.

See, part of being a businessman is knowing what the business is.

Now, the business I'm in is the auto salvage business.

That's car parts to you and me.

Legitimate vehicular appliances and accessories.

Hey, hey, what are you doing?

Oh, I'm just looking around. For what?

I'm telling you, I don't have your car.

I see every vehicle that comes in. I got them all in my head, like a computer.

Look, if the car shows up here, I'll call you. It'll save you the time you're

wasting now.

But right now, I can guarantee you 100 % that this is a brand new LeSabre grill.

How about that?

What?

And it looks like he came off the car we've been looking for.

No, no, see, this LeSabre here wasn't the blue.

We never said the little favor was blue.

What?

No, wait, wait, wait. You just hang on a second. No, no, I don't think we're

going to just hang on a second because, you see, we're in the police business.

And you, my friend, are under arrest.

He rings her easy.

All right, partner.

Pay up.

What? What do you mean, what? Pay up for the bus.

Oh, you're kidding.

And by the way, Hugo, we should let you know that car's wanted in connection

with the murder.

So it'd be in your best interest to tell us who brought it in?

Brought what in?

Honestly, now he's in the business of comedy.

How funny is it going to be when you're on trial for accessory to murder, Hugo?

You know, Ranger Gage, I'll bet you ten bucks that I can convince the jury.

That old Hugo here knows everything about the murder of that young,

woman.

You know, I don't think I'm going to take you on that bet. You're too good on

the witness stand.

You're sure going away for a long time.

Okay, okay, okay, look.

The guy who brought the car in, his street name is Johnny Zoom.

You know where we can find him?

He's always talking about some high -stakes poker game over in Sunnyvale.

I think they have it at a club called July Alley.

Okay?

Okay. I'll call Walker.

Okay, Sid. Watch your back.

Pull up at Johnny Zoom.

Sidney said that he's the one that stole the car.

Johnny Zoom? Johnny Zubliski.

Loves to steal cars.

Last year he was linked to a vehicular homicide and got off on a technicality.

Looks like he's our guy.

Gage and Sidney are checking out a club called the July Alley. There's no one to

hang out there.

I know you're trying to summon, I don't know when.

Who's going to stand beside you in the end?

I think you're just a dream, ain't the name.

But I pray to let you through heaven's gates.

Great flood.

It's like it's my lucky day.

Texas Rangers.

Yeah, we heard Johnny Zoom's involved in an illegal car game here.

So? So if you don't want to get into any more trouble than you're already in,

you might want to tell us where he is.

Right over there.

Johnny Zoom!

Come on.

Gotta go.

Stop him.

Whoa! Johnny!

Over here!

James, great timing.

Yeah, I've been looking for you.

Yeah, how come?

I gotta finish my job.

Johnny Zooms.

Not anymore.

I wonder who did this.

Well, obviously someone who didn't want to talk.

Johnny Zoom was definitely involved in Connie Gibson's murder. We found these

pictures at his apartment.

Looks like they were taken right after the trial.

By Johnny Zoom?

Well, we didn't find any photo equipment in his apartment at all, not even a

little Instamatic.

There were no other pictures either.

Maybe they were given to Johnny by the man who hired him.

Yeah, forensics checked for other fingerprints and didn't find anything.

Let's see if Johnny Zoom has any connection with the Viscardi

You Floyd? Yeah, and you got a lot of nerve making us wait here this long.

were you?

Mr. Floyd, where were you sounds like a question to me, and I told you if you

want to get paid for this job, it's no questions asked.

Hey, I'm just talking common courtesy here. I'm talking $50 ,000, you want it

not.

Fine.

This half up front.

Get the other half when this one's towed.

Madam Corcoran, have you reached the verdict?

Tell us the way we cut them.

Oh, and Johnny Zoom has no connection to the Viscardi urgency.

What?

Hey.

Hey. I'll talk to you in a minute.

You'll be happy to know I got in touch with everyone involved with the trial.

And after hearing about Connie Gibson, they're all grateful that we're

them with protection.

All except for Jed Steigler.

He seems to think that nobody's going to go after a federal judge, so he turned

the officer away.

We'll go talk to him. Good. You know, he's lecturing all day at the Dallas Law

School.

you at the lecture, Judge.

Okay.

I hope that's not who I think it is.

Mr. Speichler? Yeah, we believe so. That was his office that exploded.

What do you think happened?

At first glance, someone painting the room with a couple cans of turpentine

and the windows closed.

The fumes ignited and whoosh.

What about second glance?

It did a lot of damage for a couple cans of turpentine.

Look, I'll do a full arson investigation.

Now I'll get back to you if I find anything.

Thanks, Ned.

Go after a federal judge, you go after anybody.

I know.

What's the update with the judge?

Burned to a crisp.

Good.

Now get rid of the contractors.

Consider it done.

Nice view.

Got the results, Ranger Walker.

It was arson.

Pain thinner?

No, that was the decoy. The real killer, unodorized propane.

It's a heavy gas that will stay on the floor, unnoticed really, until it

ignites. Once it does, it disappears.

How'd you find it? Found traces of propane in a melted nylon carpet.

How difficult is it to get unodorized propane?

It's very difficult.

This gas is a highly controlled substance.

only available from oil refineries and gas plants.

How many of them are in the Dallas area?

I'd say no more than 20.

I'll get Sidney and Gage on it.

Okay, thank Ned.

Mr.

Floyd, it's your silent partner.

You do excellent work.

Out of the other half of your payment,

Yeah, so where can we meet?

Gage, I am here at the Waterton Refinery, and I got to tell you, records

clean. There's nothing going on over here.

How about you?

Yeah, I drew a big fat zero, too.

But I did come up with some interesting information.

Apparently the minimum order size for a load of unorderized propane, 9 ,500

gallons. That's the size of a normal tank or truck.

Wow. Yep.

Whoever's buying this stuff's got to have a truck to transport it off of.

All right, I'll pass it on to Trevette.

Okay.

Okay, Sid, I'll keep an eye out.

How you doing?

Ranger Trevette.

Who are those guys out there?

Just some clients making a pickup.

You always allow pickups after 5 o 'clock?

For select clients.

I thought your clients were gas companies.

That truck doesn't have a marking on it.

Sir, do your select clients have a name?

Give me a minute and I'll check the logbook.

Don't bother. I'll ask them myself.

I told you, Ranger.

I have nothing to say.

I don't want you to say anything.

We already know it was you and your partner that torched the judge's office.

When we're through with the dispatch manager from the gas plant, we'll have

the evidence we need.

Did you say something?

What do you want to know?

Who hired you?

Look, it was a blind hire.

We got the assignment over the phone.

After it was over, the guy rolls up on his motorcycle and he pages.

And that's all I know.

Let me tell you what I know.

Whoever hired you trying to kill you, that's who put the hit out on your

partner.

They flew under the radar so they're still out there. And they don't want to

leave witnesses.

So if you don't help us, you're dead.

Look.

I don't know the guy's name.

But I can give you a description.

Let's go.

All right, here's the police sketch we got from Floyd.

Here's the results of the advanced search from the FBI.

How many matches is that?

Near matches.

Over 2 ,000.

That would take forever to track them all down.

Mr. Vett, narrow it down to just the Dallas area.

It's 182.

Okay. Narrow it down to anyone with a Class M license.

All right, motorcycle.

We got 12.

All right, I'll print that out, show it to Floyd, see if any one of these guys

is our man.

Got it.

Got our man, Dean Skaggs. I'm going to punch him up on the computer.

I'll call you back, Alex.

Something's come up.

He's a hired enforcer, connected to organized crime all over Texas.

Bad news.

Have Gates and Finney get a warrant and pick him up.

Dean Skaggs!

We're Texas Rangers.

We have a warrant, okay?

Why don't you just open up?

Gee, Ranger Gay, she doesn't appear to be home.

Why don't we let ourselves in?

Thank you.

Skaggs, what the hell are you doing here? I gotta get out of town. I got

rangers after me.

Rangers? And you came to my office? All I need is some cash and I'm out of here.

Well, I guess that you're in such a hurry to leave, Skaggs. I'll have to

care of D .A. Walker myself.

Thanks, Mike.

You got some cash on you?

Yeah, sure. It's in the safe. Come on.

Walk there.

D .A. Walk.

They're going after Alex.

Let's go.

Okay, we got it. One no -knock warrant for Michael Viscardi's home.

He won't be going back to his office with all those crime scene investigators

crawling all over the place.

Trevette, you and Gage go check out his house.

All right.

What are you and Sydney going to do?

Hopefully, catch a rat.

Have the jet ready to go in a half hour

Take out Walker and his wife

and then we're out of here That should make my old man feel better Let's go.

Yes, sir

Who are you?

Just your everyday, ordinary ranger.

So how many rats did you catch?

I caught two.

Well,

Viscardi's men have all been rounded up.

Is that right? You know, Sid, I heard that Michael Viscardi thought you were a

real knockout as Alex.

Get it?

Knock as you... I get it, I get it.

Hey, you know what that means?

What? We get to enjoy the kickboxing championship this weekend.

That ties right in with my knockout joke because you knock.

That should probably be stand -up.

Ladies and gentlemen, in this corner, the challenger, John Washington.

In this corner, I present to you pick -boxing lightweight

world champion, Danny.

the world.

Thank you very much for coming on behalf of the ISKA.

Thank you again so much for letting us change you. It was truly painful.

See you later. My pleasure.

Honey,

if you want to stay for a little while, maybe Jimmy can give me a ride home.

You sure you don't mind? No.

You sure you don't mind? No.

Okay. Thanks, hon.

Let's see you again. Come on. Take care.

Seeing those guys fight takes me way back.

Yeah, Howard.

I would say about 30 pounds.

What are you trying to say? I'm just... How about you, Joe?

Miss the old days?

Well, if I said I didn't, I'd be lying.

You know, knocking those guys out, standing up there in the middle of the

raising your hands in victory.

Wow, what a rush.

I feel the same way.

Yeah, but well done.

You're an actor now.

It's a lot easier on that body.

Yeah, you're right about that.

How much longer do you have to film? Three more weeks.

I'm just glad I was able to get the time off to come here and watch this.

Here come the champions.

Congratulations, guys.

You fought some really impressive matches out there.

Yeah, Danny, you know, you had some great combinations.

Thanks, Mr. Jackson. You know, Mr. Wallace, I'm a big fan of yours.

Oh, thank you.

Yeah, you guys are the best.

We're... These guys are making it sound like we're an over -the -hill gang.

Well, you had your day in the sun.

It's just a little cloudy now.

Oh, really?

That sounds like a challenge to me.

No, no, sir. We wouldn't do that.

First mister, now sir.

They are definitely challenging us.

Well, guys, why don't we just get together and have a little sparring

Yeah, the R -Champions.

Versus the world champion.

Sounds like a great idea to me.

Walker, do you mind if we use the Ranger, Jim?

No, not at all, but take it easy on him.

We will, Ranger Walker.

No, Danny, I'm talking to the world champion.

Thank you.

Cause the eyes of the ranger are upon you.

Evil duty's gonna see.

When you're in Texas, look behind you.

Cause that's where the rangers...
