Hold that spot right there, darling. I'm on my way.

I'm just gonna... Oh!

How about some more bubbly, baby?

There's been a terrible accident. Do you have a car phone?

Yes. Can I use it, please?

What happened? Her boyfriend, he just jumped off the bridge.

I think I can see him.

There he is. He's going under.

I have to call.

That was a great jump.

Where is he? Do you see him?

No, I don't, because you're the only one in the water.

Oh, God.

Sorry, we just wanted your car.

Right.

Bye.

All right, let's go. We'll follow you.

Pizza cake, baby.

Thank you. That was cold. Really? cold.

Way to go, Donna.

Don't think. Don't look around. Just jump on into the fire.

Oh, that pipe's strong.

What did I say?

Go with the flow?

We're talking about ourselves in a third -person plural.

In a city of angels, undercover of night.

People are drowning in a sea of light.

The devil holding your life on the line.

Angels are calling, praying for time.

Something's gotta give.

Something's gotta break.

Before it's too late.

Before it's too late.

No, I mean, I'm sorry. I'm sure they're wonderful.

I've never heard of them.

Are you kidding me? You've never heard of Pipeline, White Bound, Surfing is

Grand, Beach Bound?

Hello? And my favorite, Shifting Sands.

Got up this morning, took a look at the beach.

Grabbed my board, it was all it could reach. I need to surf, surf, surf. It's

all for me.

Surf, surf, surf is where I want to be.

Shifting Sands.

I can't believe you don't know that. Yeah, I mean, that's the regular La

No, no, no, no. You can't enjoy music sung in a foreign language.

By foreigners.

La Boheme, it's about musical complexity, sophistication. It's about

Let's talk about emotion. Let's talk about memories.

These guys played in my first kiss, my first slow dance, first...

You know what that is, don't you?

No, I'm trying to figure it out. I'm just finding out now.

Man, I gotta get some shots.

Hey, it's only a rehearsal.

Even better.

Shift is set.

I can't

believe

it.

That's Buddy Ray. He created the whole California beach, son.

Ah, he's a beach puccini.

I have got to meet that night. Me too.

Ryan! Come on!

Hey, how we doing? Almost set up. Good, good.

Julio!

Go get me a soda, will you?

Buddy!

What did you do to my husband's truck, huh?

Yeah, I heard it. It's putrid.

That man was a genius and a saint, and you trashed his record.

He was such a saint, Carmen. How come you were divorcing him, huh?

At least I'm not robbing his grave, huh? Like his own brother.

It's a sad time.

Why don't you just leave us alone?

Oh, a groupie that can talk, huh?

You're overqualified for this band, sugar.

A beach meeting is supposed to be fun.

Hi, nice to meet you, Miss Buchanan. I'm a big fan.

Hey, buddy, buddy. Thanks,

fellas. What's the matter with you?

It's wonderful, guys.

Really wonderful.

Really.

Cross that in your book of memories.

Woke up this morning, took a look at the beach.

Grabbed my board, it was always in brief. I need to surf, surf, surf, it's

for me.

Surf, surf, surf, it's where I want to be.

Can I see, can I see, can I see my way to speed?

Can I see, can I see, another wave will come to me.

No pulse.

in the trucks. Well, when the police finished their investigation.

Now, what are they looking for? It was an accident, right? Was it?

I just saw what you guys call the wah -wah pedal.

It was hardwired into a power cord. So what do you say?

That the pedal was wired to electrocute anyone who stepped on it.

No accident.

More like murder.

Any ideas?

Well, if you're looking for who might have done it, try Glenn.

Old news, Carmen.

What? They kicked him out of the band, but he kept on as a roadie. And he's

talking big money.

It made him crazy.

You lie.

What are you doing here anyway?

I'm here representing Marty's estate. Yeah, which all belongs to you now.

Oh, and what are you saying?

When Marty died, the divorce wasn't final. Instead of getting half, you get

all. You accusing me?

Why don't you ask them about the music publishing deal?

What deal?

We're joint ownership.

When Marty died, everyone else inherited millions.

Money or revenge?

Two damn fine reasons to kill somebody.

My God, Cuff.

I've lost a brother and a cousin. Won't you be happy until we're all dead?

Truthfully, no.

That ought to put her on your top 40 suspect list.

Where anyone finds me... Oh, God, why did I say that?

Oh, my God.

Daughter, that was the wrong thing to say.

Oh, I can't clear it out of your mind. Clear it out.

There are no sharks in these waters.

Well, there are sharks, but no dangerous ones.

Except the blue is white.

Oh, God.

Hey! Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Yeah!

There's someone in the water.

It's a woman.

Can't just drive by her.

Well, what do we do with her?

Stop the boat.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on. Are you okay?

Where did you come from?

Oh, it's a long story.

I'm breathing.

Here, put this on.

Listen,

you guys can just drop me anywhere.

I'm going to the land.

I'm sorry. That's not going to be possible at the present time.

But it'll only take you a few minutes.

Hey, I've been on the water most of the night.

Yeah, well, I'm sorry. We're on a tight schedule.

Yeah, we're doing research on abalone.

But the abalone aren't going anywhere in the next hour, are they?

No, but the tide is. You see, there's a window when the tide flows and when it

ebbs, and we have to be there when it ebbs. It has to do with the abalone.

from UCLA doing a biology project trying to restore the abalone to its

habitat.

Why don't you get warm?

Have a candy boy and some hot coffee.

Relax. Enjoy the ride.

Ah, baloney.

Think she bought it?

It doesn't matter.

When you think about it, she's perfect cover.

I mean, no one in their right mind would take a woman along on a deal like this.

You know, if she was out there all night, she's damn lucky to be alive.

I wonder how she got there. Who cares?

I can't believe it. He was right next to me, and now he's gone.

I don't understand it. First my brother, now my cousin.

I don't get it. Two guys in the same van dying in two weeks. That's a hell of a

coincidence.

The autopsy on Marty showed that his BAC was .21, so he was drunk enough to slip

and drown.

Oh, Marty was cold sober for the last two years.

after carmen bailed on him no drugs no booze he was going to his aa meetings

every day no he was he was trying to stay clean he was on the wagon maybe

someone or something pushed him off that night yeah maybe you know maybe i

should hire you guys maybe that's a good idea

Hey, buddy.

What's Mike doing pointing outside?

Oh, Marty liked to sample natural sounds for his records.

You know, wind chimes and birds and waves.

He's going to do the keyboard.

Is this the sampler? Yeah.

All right. Let's see if I can filter some of this noise out.

Slow down, slow down.

Slow down.

I don't see anything. You sure we're in the right place?

Yep, this is the spot.

Something about all this is making me nervous.

What's going on here?

I mean, you guys know less about Avalon than I do.

Todd, we got company.

Damn it.

Either they're early or we're late.

Hey, what's going on here?

Look, for now, it'd be best for all of us if we would just stay and not hurt.

Time to call a cavalry? No, no, not now. Let's stay cool.

Maybe we can make this work after all.

Who are you guys?

There's no time for formal introductions, and if you keep quiet,

get out of this alive.

Hey, bro, what's up?

Thought you'd be long gone.

Who the hell are you guys? You ain't Johnny.

We're the pickup.

Johnny sent us.

Who's the Betty?

When? Wrong for the right.

Well, I say two's company.

Three's a crowd.

Hey, bro, if it's wrong, then we're gone. It's no problem.

On the contrary, bro, it's a big problem.

Because you boys... They're all wrong.

I lost the radio.

Where? Over the side where I got hit.

Hold him. I'll get the radio.

You'll never find it.

You better hope I do or he's not going to make it.

What do I do?

Key it twice. That's a signal.

Todd?

Todd and Jason have been shot.

We need help out here right now.

Who is this? Identify yourself.

You have two agents bleeding to death and you're wasting time.

We're on our way.

That heat raise gig at the pier gave me an idea.

I'm putting together a then and now kind of thing.

Is that the He -Rite?

Absolutely.

1971. Look at that.

Big hair, furious bell -bottoms.

Where'd you get these?

Rock and Roll -O -Rama. It's a memorabilia shop.

Check the chick.

That looks like Buddy's girlfriend, Marnie.

It is her.

And I zapped off five rolls at the pier.

Look at this.

This is my shot of Marnie at the pier.

And that's her in 1971?

Yep. I guess she found a time travel portal.

Star Trek was right.

It's her high school address.

Six years ago. Maybe we can get lucky.

Maybe we can find out why we got two possible murders and enough motives to

Dodger Stadium on Fan Appreciation Day. Not to mention a blonde who doesn't age.

Hello?

Anybody home?

Hey, man.

I'm sorry.

We didn't mean to disturb you.

And you said come in. So, uh... You're not disturbing me.

We're looking for Marnie Morrow.

Marnie?

She's not here.

Um, are you related to her? I mean, you look a little bit like her. Are you her

sister?

I'm her mother.

Oh, what?

Mrs. Morrow.

Oh, please call me Grace.

Grace, my name is Mitch Buchanan.

Hi. And this is Garner Ellerby. Hello, Grace.

We'd like to ask you a couple of questions about a group called the Heat

Did you know them?

Yeah.

Yeah, I knew them very well.

Well, we had a great time together. We traveled all over the world, you know,

tours, Paris and France.

Oh, it was wonderful.

I was part of their family.

It was the best part of my life.

Well, I've got something here that I think you might enjoy.

Recognize that picture?

Taken at the old Kaleidoscope Studios.

Is that you?

Yeah.

It was a recording session.

Why are you here?

Are you reporters?

No, no, we're private investigators.

Two of the heat rays are dead.

They don't call me. I don't see them.

They don't come by anymore.

Mrs. Morrow, we didn't mean to...

Such you.

What's up?

Uh, Mrs. Ray here has something important that she thinks we should

Is that right?

Yeah, I saw Jason, the drummer.

He was playing with the power chords and moving them before the rehearsal.

Why didn't you say anything before?

Look, my relationship with my former family isn't all that warm and cozy,

Well, I didn't want anybody thinking that I had something to do with Lucas's

death.

I couldn't sit back and let somebody get away with murder.

Where is Jason now?

Oh, he's probably coiled under some warm rock somewhere.

He doesn't do anything but play golf and the drums.

Look, I've got to go. I just wanted to clear my conscience.

That was noble.

Plain nasty.

Either way, we gotta check it out.

Lovely, isn't it?

Haunting, Melody.

Haunting. Yes, that's the word. Haunting.

I'm going to ask you again. What were you doing with the power cores during

rehearsal?

You know, we're just trying to help you find out who killed your brother.

Okay.

Hey, excuse me. Hello.

Thanks for cooperation.

Great drummer, huh?

At least he could do his play in a gala da vida.

I'd say he's a perfect candidate for a personality transplant, huh?

Go on.

What do you guys want?

Just a little information.

Man, take a look at me.

Everything is gone.

The band.

Everything.

That's all there is to know.

Who'd want to do this?

Who hated you and Marty and Lucas enough to kill you?

Flip through a family album, you'll find somebody.

Jason, do you know a woman named Grace Morrow?

No. There's a picture of that.

It's Marnie, Buddy's girlfriend.

No.

That's Marnie's mother, Grace Morrow.

Look closer. That picture was taken over 20 years ago.

It's the kaleidoscope. We, um... We cut a track there.

What happened back then?

Nothing. We cut a record.

Which one?

Sister.

He made 27 albums, over 100 singles.

He could have been any one of them.

Shifting Sands?

I can't remember.

I was trying to think back. At the Kaleidoscope Studios, Grace Moore was

Shifting Sands, what happened?

I just told you, I don't remember.

Look, I showed this picture to Grace Moore. It scared the hell out of her,

Now, what happened?

It doesn't matter. It was over 20 years ago.

It does matter.

Somebody killed your brother. Somebody killed your cousin.

They barely missed killing you.

Jason, what happened?

Kaleidoscope Studio.

Race Morrow.

Shifting Sands.

We were in the studio for a couple of days.

Laying down the tracks for Shifting Sands.

We finally got it right.

We knew, man.

Go.

The chick?

Grace, whatever.

She hung with the band.

No matter where you were, you could look up and she'd be there.

Shadow.

That's what we all called her.

Nice enough girl, but you couldn't get away from her.

There were a lot of chicks like that back then.

She's some different somehow.

Too much.

I thought she was part of the package that he pays.

After the session, we got hammered pretty good on champagne.

Me, Marty, and Lucas started playing around with it.

Showtime. No big thing. Just a little thing.

He's got a little out of hand, you know?

The booze kicked in, buddy passed out in the corner, then... You know, one thing

led to another.

Stop it!

You raped her?

She didn't say no.

She was drunk. She didn't have the chance.

You don't understand, man.

I owned the world in 1971.

I could do anything I wanted.

Nobody ever said no. Nobody.

What about Buddy?

He was hooked.

He never even woke up. He, uh... I never told him what happened.

And what about Grace?

She got scared. She left the band.

Probably hooked up with another band or something.

I've lost my brother and my cousin.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry to God.

I would do anything if I could go back and fix things. I mean, if it's money.

No, money can't buy a life back.

Come on, buddy.

What if Grace never knew he passed out?

That means Marnie doesn't know either.

My brother, my two cousins.

I'm next, man.

Well, if you want to be safe, let's just put the boat out.

Safest place to be is in the middle of the ocean.

You are right.

And get Garner break and let him go home.

No, no, I'm staying here. Wherever you go, I go.

We might want a little time alone.

She's right, man.

Go home, Gardner. It's okay.

Hey, I appreciate your concern, man, but it's my boat, and we're casting off.

I don't think so. Look, I hired you. Let me fire you for about an hour, huh?

Come on. Be okay.

We'll be back before nightfall, and... Here, we'll meet you right here.

Ready?

They took off in the boat. We got a problem.

Keep going, huh?

Yeah, here.

Patty, it's Mitch. I need to scare him as soon as possible.

Yeah, at the dock.

Ah, he wouldn't listen to me.

What are you doing?

This is all right.

I'm feeling better already.

Sit back.

You know, sometimes I feel like this is the only friend I have, except for you.

What's going on? What are you doing?

Look, over there.

All right, hang on, buddy.

I got you.

Closer. Get her a little closer.

Yeah, bring her on up.

Let it go.

Thanks, man. Thanks again.

I'll be right back.

You're going to be okay, buddy.

You should have let him die.

Marnie, Buddy had nothing to do with it.

Jason confessed to the Wraith.

Buddy was drunk that night. Buddy passed out.

He never even knew what happened to your mom.

Hey, could you cover this for me? I lost my wallet. Sure, no problem.

This is a first. You're always so in control.

Keep it here.

Kind of nice to be able to help you.

Last week was nice.

So, how was your day?

Come on, I'll buy you a drink. Tell you all about it. Good.

Hi. Hi.

Mitch, right? Right, right. How are you, Grace, okay?

I'm okay.

Buddy sent me here.

He wanted to help out somehow.

He signed over the royalties of his new song to you.

He knows it can't fix what happened.

Tell him thanks.

Okay.

He also wanted to know if he could stop by and say hello someday.

Maybe. Someday.

Is there anything you need?

I can see it in your eyes.

Something just ain't right.

I can tell you want to know.

You start to show the pain of letting go.

Lady Grace, I want to see you smile.

Lady Grace Only for a while

Lady Grace I wanna see you smile

In the night It can blow

your dreams away They're the price you've got to pay

You can't run In the night

You can hear the baron's call as another angel falls.

Grace to the boulevard in the blink of an eye. The devil is watching as we fly

into the night.

In the night, you can hear the baron's call

as another angel falls.
