Hey, are you ready to be a star today?

We've got to make some art here, people. All right, let's go. Bring that light

right down here.

Down here.

All right, that's not. No, I've got even more light than that. You're in the

spot. I've got it.

Okay.

All right, this is heating.

Oh, yeah, heating.

Good point. Yeah.

All right.

Let's go.

No, I told you that's too hot.

Turn it over. Give me the other flat side. Get it?

Good. Back in there. Back in there. Back in there.

That's a good dog.

That is such a good dog.

Good. All right. That's fine.

All right. Hang on.

I think he looks good, don't you?

Now we're out of film. All right, take five. We're reloading now. This is the

dumbest dog in the whole world. Where the hell did you get such a dumb dog?

My dog.

I trained that dog. I love this dog.

And you are as dumb as the dog.

Is everybody ready?

Is your camera loaded?

Yeah. Are we all happy?

Then give me the goddamn dog.

This program is sponsored by the Women's Press Club of America, along with the

Friends of Public Television.

I'm Melissa Kent.

And I'm Sander Davis.

In a few minutes, we will switch our control to the Women's Press Club to

Emmanuelle Griffith, Woman of the Year. Some people may not know the name, but

they should be able to recognize the face.

At age 25, Miss Griffith has appeared on the front cover of some of the most

famous fashion magazines in the world, the covers of Vision, Olay, and Velary,

just to name a few.

Emmanuelle, as she's best known.

has now become the world's standard of beauty and fashion and is also a major

symbol of the feminist movement.

She denies any interest in the job of president of the Women's Press Club.

So, Melissa, what about those rumors?

Well, Sandra, it's a demanding position, and she's already in great demand.

She's been described as the highest -paid fashion model in the history of

business. Now we switch our cameras to Washington, D .C., and Joan Harris,

current president.

The Women's Press Club.

Good morning, ladies.

Good morning.

I'm so very happy to see all of you here this morning.

When I first became president of the Women's Press Club five years ago, I

had a problem.

No. Yes, I did. I didn't think that I could handle the job.

It was too difficult, too hard.

and at times it seemed impossible.

Women were second -class citizens then, and they still are today.

But let me tell you what.

Things are changing.

Manuel, I would like you to accept this award as it is given.

You represent our strength and our desire for equality.

God love you.

Oh, God, this is really great stuff.

This is great stuff.

Good morning, ladies, and welcome to a man's world.

Let me tell you a little about men, ladies.

They'll tell you anything they want you to hear.

They'll tell you that they'll pay you as much as they're earning for doing the

same job.

Yes, they will.

They will tell you that there is no sexual harassment in the workplace.

And some of them, ladies, some of them will tell you you should remain

barefoot and pregnant.

This is really great stuff.

All of this is going to change, ladies.

Thank God for that. Thank God for that.

I don't want to take this world away from the boy.

All I want is for us to have a piece of the pie.

And when I'm talking piece, ladies, I don't mean a little one.

I am talking 50 % right.

Down the middle!

Yes!

I want to thank you

so much for having me here tonight.

I will cherish this moment for the rest of my life.

Lord, Lord, I can't believe this. I mean, I can't believe it. I'm excited.

is beautiful.

I mean, this woman could be the president of the United States. I've got

this again.

This is history in the making. I mean, this is tape at its best. I've got

history right in front of me. I can't believe it. Let me rewind it. Let me see

this again. Come on. Let's go, man.

I will tell you, you should remain barefoot and pregnant.

Now, ladies, all of this is going to change.

Yes! 50 -50!

50%, honey! Come on!

Come on!

Wake him up!

I don't want to take this world away from the boys.

No, 50 -50.

All I want is for us to have our piece of the pie.

Yes! 50 % down the middle! Nothing more, nothing less! Come on, baby!

I'm not talking piece, ladies.

I'm not talking a small piece.

I am talking...

50 % down, down, down.

Yes, yes, yes.

Just get the bathroom.

Just get money.

Come on.

I want to thank you so very much for having me here today.

I will treasure this for the rest of my life. Thank you.

Okay, I have a suite set up for you at a lovely Japanese hotel in Beverly Hills.

Good. Then you have to be at the location by four this afternoon.

Fine, what about the deal?

Okay, for every day they go over, it's an additional $12 ,000. Good.

Now, we aren't sure about after Paris.

Howard thinks it may be Mexico City, but he won't know until you get to France.

Phil, what do you do when I'm not in town?

No, come on, you can tell me. I'm in town three months out of the year.

on a full salary.

Well, I work out.

I go to a lot of movies.

I hope I haven't created a problem.

I'm always ready when you need me.

I know you're a very good boy, Phil.

That's easy to see.

And welcome to a man's world.

Let me tell you a little about men, ladies.

They'll tell you anything they want you to hear.

They'll tell you that they'll pay you as much as they're earning for doing the

same job.

God, I hope not.

Oh, Lord, woman.

We have a problem here, Emmanuel.

It's the word they.

Now, we all know that they pertains to men.

So, why don't you just come out and say, men, you're blessed with great beauty.

You should be satisfied with that advantage.

But you're not.

I think all you girls should remember the terminology, manpower, manipulate,

rights of man.

Manhole. I mean, all you girls can climb down and it's still going to be a

manhole in the eyes of God, in the eyes of everyone.

You can't change that. Not even God can change that. Understand that, lady.

You have a lot to learn, Emmanuel.

And one Richard Tate is going to teach you.

Oh, Cora Hotel.

Yes, Ms. Manuel Griffith, please.

Yeah, I think I was calling.

Yes, tell her that our studio driver has arrived.

One moment, please.

Yes? Yes, Ms. Griffith?

Yes, your limo is here.

What time is it?

No, I'm an hour from now.

Oh, no, but they moved the time up, ma 'am. Did they tell you that?

No.

All right, fine.

I'll be down in a minute.

Okay, thank you.

Hey buddy, I smell some gas back here.

Hey guys, you got a leak or something?

Can't you get the window down?

Hey mister, hey mister, what are you doing?

Don't worry, baby.

I'm here to help you.

Everything's going to be just fine.

Hello?

What's going on?

Where am I?

Why do you ask?

Who the fuck are you and why am I here?

I don't like women who use profanity.

You don't?

No.

Then you just tell me a few things What the fuck is going on where the fuck am I

and who the fuck are you You'll find out Manny

Listen to me, you bastard.

You let me out of here right now, or I'm going to see that you go to jail for

the rest of your life.

Well, if you haven't already figured it out, you're the one that's in jail.

And for how long depends entirely on you, my pretty.

Well, let's not talk about the press meeting.

Let's move ahead into a bright new future.

Now, it's lesson time, sweetheart, so pay attention.

I think you're going to enjoy this.

This is something very close to your heart.

They'll tell you that there's no sexual harassment in the workplace.

And some of them, ladies, some of them will tell you you should remain barefoot

and pregnant.

I must tell you, I love the barefoot and pregnant line.

I'm going to play it for you again. And watch the smile that crosses your face

just after you say the line.

It was great.

You were in charge then, and wasn't it wonderful?

Good morning, ladies, and welcome to a man's world.

You know what? I think we're going to have to rethink that dumb speech of

but don't worry.

I mean, we're going to make it right.

You know, I want you to memorize every stupid word you say.

I want you to see the look on your face.

But... You know, it's like anything else.

I want you to see every arrogant, sarcastic expression that you presented

that audience.

But don't worry.

It's going to be okay.

We're going to make it out just fine.

Now, what would you like for lunch?

Nothing.

I want nothing from you.

Oh, okay. Well, I tell you what.

There's a buzzer right on that table in front of the TV.

And if you just push it, I'll bring you anything you need.

Leave it dirty, Emmanuel.

Stay there, baby.

Let me just follow you around.

All right.

Good job, baby.

Help me!

Can somebody help me?

Save your breath, sweetheart.

You'll need it later.

You can't get out. No one can hear you. I'm in charge now.

The sooner you get that through your head, the better off you'll be.

Just push the buzzer if you need anything.

This is your friendly chef.

How may I be of service?

I'd like something to eat.

Mmm.

Well, I tell you, that sounds reasonable.

All you have to do is use the word please.

Please. Well, how do you like that, sweet cake?

You're finally making some progress, and it hasn't even been 24 hours.

Breakfast in bed.

For the only lady in the house.

Not bad, huh?

I make my bernet sauce with a little brandy.

I'm impressed.

Well, thank you. I studied with a great chef at the Waldorf Astoria in New York.

Lovely. Well, thank you once again. My specialty is pastry.

Wow. Now I want to know who you are and why I'm here.

Well, my dear, you already know why you're here. That's to give you time and

instruction until you get your pretty little head straightened out.

As for me, I am your chef and host.

And in due time, if you're really nice and kind, I may even be your lover.

You should live so fucking long.

I told you that I don't like that kind of language from a woman.

I don't want to have to say it again.

What's your name?

My name is Richard.

Hello, Richard.

What did they call you in school?

Did they call you Ricky?

Did they call you Dicky?

Or did they just call you dick?

You're about as dumb as a boxer rock.

I mean, what the hell made you think you could get your ass through that small

opening, huh?

Please help me.

Honey, you just said the magic word, please.

My neck kind of caught on something here at the waist. I can't pull back out.

Oh. Well, that's no problem.

Okay,

try it again.

Go on.

I can't do it.

Why not? You got in there.

Well, that's obvious, but now I can't get back out.

Okay, well, I'll tell you what. Let me check out the situation.

Let me check this out, okay?

Okay. All right, I'm checking it out.

You know, the only thing I can figure is that your tits got bigger.

You are a disgusting pig.

Well, I'll tell you what. I can take this thing off its hinges, and you'll be

wearing a door for the rest of your life.

Please. It's better.

You know what? You're starting to get to me.

The possibility exists is that you may even be getting better.

But I doubt it.

Leave this.

Children.

Healing children.

Oh, this is that fake butter. I hate this shit, don't you?

All right.

All right, this is the gold we have been searching for.

Yes.

Oh, yes.

Yes, baby.

Oh, yes. Come on, come on, come on.

Move over a little bit. I see a touch of you, babe. Come on. Come on, honey.

Come to daddy. That's it. That's better.

Oops. Not enough.

This gets the magic. Oh, come on. Get in the view. Come on. Let me strike a

close -up on the magic spot.

What are you doing to me?

Yeah. No, I want to go someplace where I can totally be lost.

But at the same time, if I wish to escape into some excitement, it's

Oh, I understand, I think.

But I want it to be magnificent.

First class all the way.

Good.

I like the ocean, but it has to be more than that.

I want something that oozes love.

Oozes? I beg your pardon?

Oh, excuse me, oozes. I was just flashing on something.

Oh, right.

What do you have in mind?

Well, the people in the travel business might call me Mr. T because T stands for

travel, of course, so you've come to the right place.

What I'm about to show you, young man, is splendor in the sand.

Oh!

You'd be screaming for oxygen.

This.

This is Antigua.

The island of beaches.

Five years ago, very dear.

Well, close, intimate.

A friend of mine and I spent five glorious days there. It was magnificent.

never forget it. We'd lay on the beach and write love poems to each other.

Spun the night under this rock.

Look, this is the very rock.

And the nights, oh, don't ask. The nights were magical.

The wind, the people, the island, the beaches, the

love poems.

Then when the mood struck us, which was quite often, we would adjourn to our

magical sleep.

Sweet.

Just between us.

We did it everywhere.

Upstairs, downstairs, in my lady's chamber, so to speak.

It was magnificent.

I bet.

What a memory.

Yes. Oh, excuse me.

Now tell me, will you be traveling alone?

Uh, no, I'll be traveling with my wife.

Of course.

Sorry. No harm done.

Now, you want me to write that up?

Yeah, sure thing, pal.

Like I said, I want a first class all the way. I'll take the beach, I'll take

the sand, I'll take the nightlife, but I definitely do not want that, bro.

Hello?

This is Dick.

What can I do for you?

Look, Richard.

I have nothing against you.

Please let me go.

Not until your act is together, my darling.

Okay.

You're right. I'm sorry.

Let me explain something to you, darling.

Okay? I kidnapped you.

I kidnapped you. You know what that means?

The FBI is involved with this as we speak even here.

And I'm not going to let you out until you get your head straight.

And that, my love, is quite up to you.

Look, Richard, I have nothing against you.

Please let me go.

Not until you get your act together.

I know.

You're right. I'm sorry.

Not only do I hate women who use foul words, but I hate women who lie.

Good night, sweetheart.

Oh, no!

Richard!

Richard, come back!

Oh, please, don't go away.

Oh, please, you've got to come back.

You've got to talk to me, Richard, please!

Yes, my darling.

I can hear you. Isn't it nice to see a friendly face?

Look, Richard, I have money.

I have a lot of money.

I don't need new money.

What do you want, then?

I want you to be a nice little girl.

I want you to be nice to the men who support you.

I want you to be barefoot and not pregnant.

I hate kids.

Look, I will do whatever you want.

I have got to get out of here. I am going crazy in here.

Okay.

Take off the towel.

I want to see you.

You can see me?

You've been watching me?

Just relax, baby.

How do I turn off this fucking thing?

It's locked. I control it from here. Just relax, okay?

What is it?

Is it a peephole dick, you prick?

Oh, no, not a peephole. Not for Dickie Boy. Dickie Boy is much too clever for

that, isn't he? Oh, it's got to be something else, huh? How about a TV

How does that sound?

And when I find it...

Don't even give it a thought, baby. You'll never find it. Never.

You bastard.

You sick son of a bitch. Who do you think you are anyway?

You listen to me and you pay attention.

I'm the guy with a key to your mind.

God, I hate you.

You are the lowest of the low.

You listen to me, dicky boy.

When I get out of here, you are dead meat.

That was a bad idea, baby.

You best plug that back in.

Fuck you!

Good night, sweetheart.

Oh, this is just perfect.

Oh, what's the matter, dicky boy?

Reality get to be too much for you, huh?

Reality gets to be a little tough and you can't take it. You gotta turn off

sound, huh, buddy?

Well, let me tell you something.

I'm still gonna find it.

And when I find it, you can watch yourself for the rest of your fucking

Turner Detective Agency.

Jerry Turner, please. Sam Weston calling.

Please hold.

Hello.

Mr. Turner, this is Sam Weston. Hey, Sam.

Just make it Jerry, okay?

Okay, Jerry. How are we doing?

Well, Sam, while you were flying in first class from New York, I found the

person to see Emanuel Griffith alive.

Good.

Yep, Japanese girl.

I worked at the hotel.

Helped her out to the phony limo.

Okay. Sam, I got to tell you, I run one of the best detective agencies in this

area.

Why don't we get this thing wrapped up real quick and go out and do some more

business together?

I can have her here on Wednesday.

How's one for you?

Sounds good.

She'll be here.

Hello?

I have no water in here!

What's going on?

Richard, I have no water!

How many ways do I love you?

I'm gonna show you now.

I'll buy you nice little things and a big diamond ring.

Oh, wow.

You said that you didn't love me.

Honey, I got class and style.

I'll make sure we're together.

Just tell me when.

Mile after mile after mile.

Yeah, how many ways do I love you?

Let me tell the world, let me tell them all.

Buy you a rainbow, buy you the moon.

I'll buy you boats and planes, horses and trains. I'll buy the size of the

if you'd wish to purchase the undergarments we discussed.

I'm sure we can come to some kind of agreement for a discount, let's say 5%.

Well, that sounds okay. I'll tell you what, why don't you have her try the

one? I'm sorry, sir, but we don't model underwear.

Why not?

Company policy.

Who said what company?

This company.

You in charge of this company?

I am. You set forth the rule?

I did.

Why is she gonna do that? I mean, why is everybody gonna spoil my fun?

Sir, this is a respectable establishment.

Are you suggesting that I'm not respectable?

Honey, could you go over and give me the gold dress?

I mean, I don't like this at all. I gotta tell you, I don't want that at

deal with gold, and I love gold. I mean, look at the shimmering of this. I mean,

this is beautiful.

Well...

I'll tell you what, why don't you throw all this shit in a box and, oh, let's

see, a 10 % discount seems pretty respectable to me.

Don't you think?

Man. Exasperating.

Well, look at that.

Front page, above the fold, in living color.

I really am fantastic.

Good morning, Emmanuel. I have something very special for you.

Something pink for Pink Lady.

How are you?

Hey, you, what's going on here?

Plug it back in. There's a little bra for you in black.

I've been calling you all day. I don't have any water, and where the hell's my

food? Plug it back in, and things will be quite beautiful for you. Here's

something royal for a royal lady.

Oh, yes.

Here's some golden thread for you. Just plug back in.

Another thing for pink lady. Here's a little thing for purple.

I want some goddamn water. I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

Well, try running for the goddamn water with these tennis shoes. You bet your

life. There they are. Run for it, babe.

Stick these shoes right up your ass. Give me some water. Here's little undies

for the baby.

You prick, you turned the water off, didn't you?

You got to be heartened if you want it back on.

Plug it back in.

What the hell are you talking about?

I got faith in you. I mean, I think you'll...

I'm not taking any calls, sweetheart.

And I'm going to get some water, alright?

Jeez.

God, you are persistent.

Jesus.

Honey,

these are difficult times for both of us, okay? But I tell you what, I'm going

to make it as easy on you as possible.

Now all you got to do to get started again is plug it back in.

Fuck you!

You better not mess your room up, honey.

You're going to be living there for a long time.

Also, I've turned the buzzer off so you can save your finger.

All you got to do is come over here and plug it back in. You want something to

drink? Plug it back in. You want something to eat? Plug it back in. It's

simple. Plug it back in. I wouldn't do that if I were you!

That's your only contact with the outside world.

What are you doing to me?

Honey, I'm not doing anything to you.

You're doing it all to yourself, baby.

You make it all happen.

All right, Richard.

We'll do it your way.

Now you see there, sweetheart?

You've already started to learn something.

Don't bite the hand that feeds you.

And don't unplug the TV set.

Soon you'll have running water.

And tonight, tonight I'm going to fix you a beautiful steak with bernet sauce.

God, I love you, Manny.

I love you with my heart and soul and I would do anything for you.

But please cooperate with me.

Pour some for yourself darling.

It's wonderful Here's looking at you, baby

It's wonderful

Once you try the steak, it's great. I mean I'd like to see what

you think

It's very good.

Later I'll share the method and the recipe with you as soon as we get to

each other better.

The secret is, though, that I used two egg yolks in the sauce at the end. It

makes it smoother.

It's very smooth.

Look, Richard, can we talk?

Of course we can. That's what I'm here for.

That's good.

I wanted to know when I could get out. I mean, when I could be released.

It's quite up to you. You know that by now.

Why don't you pour yourself some more wine, okay?

You know, tonight, I'm going to be the designated driver.

Are we going out?

No, no.

I can't trust you to go anyplace.

No. Oh, yes, you can. I behave.

I love the word behave.

Yes, I do. I mean, when you learn to apply that, it'd be better for both of

I have learned that. Really, I have.

Oh, here, this is toast.

Okay?

I was just a little lover.

Tell me this.

What did they call you when you were a kid in school?

By my name.

They called me Dick.

What'd they call you?

By my name.

How about Manny?

Did they call you that?

No.

Kids can be so cruel.

You are cruel.

No, I represent the truth.

You have a very nice voice.

Thank you.

I love compliments.

Here's looking at you, kid.

Oh, I got you back on now.

So, after that, I invented this crazy thing that helps idiots program their

VCRs, and I made a fortune.

You're very smart.

Oh, no, just lucky.

What about you? I mean, how'd you get into your crazy business?

That was funny.

I went to New York to become an actress.

I was 19.

What a joke.

So what happened?

I found out I was no actress.

Then what?

My mom needed money.

I didn't know how to do anything.

Cheers.

I'm not ashamed.

It was in all the papers.

What?

I did new dancing at a Times Square bar.

Well, I mean, how'd you handle that?

It was easy.

I actually enjoyed it.

I got off on guys watching me.

It was a turn -on.

That's what all models do.

Turn guys on.

Doesn't matter if you're naked or not.

It's a turn -on.

It's a sexist thing, so you're a sexist.

I didn't say that.

Yes, you did.

Well, men just take advantage.

Oh.

So when you're stuck naked in front of those good old boys, I mean, who has

the advantage then?

Why don't you play me some music?

I want to dance for you.

Forever Please take these words I say

Hold them inside Your heart

Oh baby

Oh girl

I need you, darling, inside my world.

I'm yours forever.

Please hear the song I sing.

Hold it inside.

I'll be down in the living room.

Just come down the stairs and bear to your left.

Hello.

Hello.

Come down and join me.

Sit down.

I got a present for you.

It's by your side under that pillow.

Yeah, it blends with your body.

It's you all the way.

Show yourself, baby.

Come, Daddy.

If you think you can escape Richard Ting, you must be crazy.

Not in a million years.

There you are.

Let's go.

It's over, baby.

I'll find you.

You know what?

You lied to me, baby.

You lied to me.

After I gave everything to you, and you're trying to run from me and hide

me. When you deal with Richard, you're dealing with style, class, and

elegance.

You're used to punks.

You're used to no -class guys.

I give you the best of wine.

The best of food, the best of clothes, and the best of perfume.

Perfume that I can smell a million miles away.

I got you.

Watch this.

Needless to say, you've upset me.

You're a liar, a thief, and a cheat.

And somewhere down the road, baby, somewhere down the road, you're going to

along and say, Dickie boy, I'm sorry.

You got that?

You haven't had enough of me yet, baby.

I really appreciate your help with this. No problem.

There she is.

So,

I understand you helped carry her bags downstairs.

Yes.

And what time of day was this?

Yes.

It was about 8 a .m. 8 a .m.

Can you describe the limo? Yes.

Go ahead. It was wrong.

Wrong? Yes.

Long? Yes.

Most of them are. Kim, do you remember the color of the car?

It was a black.

And the driver?

Do you remember what he looked like?

Yes.

What? Describe him.

He was tall.

He had on a black jacket and a black hat.

Was it a black man?

No, white man.

Let's go back to that long limo.

Do you remember what kind it was?

Oh, you mean a Kederick or Rinkon?

Yeah. Oh, I don't know.

Miss. I've come a real long way to talk to you.

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much.

Is there anything you can do to... Jerry, she's your witness, ma 'am. Jump

on in here.

I want to concentrate on what this man looked like.

Yes. Can you handle that?

Handle what?

what the guy looked like?

Oh, yes. Yes, I can.

Well, great. What did he look like?

He had a black hat.

Oh, wait, wait, wait. Please, please. Let's forget about the hat, okay? Let's

just try this for a moment.

Picture yourself standing in front of the hotel, okay? That morning, all

You see the guy.

He's standing right in front of you. You got it?

Yes. Okay?

Picture it there now.

Yes. Now tell us.

What do you see?

I see a big round head of a face.

Yes, thank you very much.

Jesus Christ.

Thank you very much.

Very nice lady.

Thank you very much.

You're an asshole, Jerry.

Thank you very much.

It was a bad day.

Mr. Richard.

Stella, I called you. I left you a message. I'm not going to need you for a

while. I told you that. I got no message.

Yes, but you don't understand. I'm not going to need you for a while.

I already didn't pay for this, so I clean up when I can today. Yeah, but

is dirty, can't you? See around, everything is clean.

I do dishes and I change sheets.

Yeah, you did. Well, listen, I'm going away for a month or so, so come on. I'll

tell you what, I'll give you a buzz as soon as I get back. Okay?

I'll give you a buzz. No, no, Mr. Richard. You do not take money for

you do not do.

Stella, you've been good to me. I mean, you do good work, and I'll be in touch

with you as soon as I get back from the vacation. No, no, Mr. Richard, here. I

got a pen, and I got some wine.

God, I don't want money. I don't want money from you.

Okay, I don't want money from you. Here, here.

You're going to die in there, Mr. Richard. If it weren't for me, you would

like a rat. Oh, God, Mr. Stella, I'll be in touch with you, okay? I promise I'll

be in touch with you as soon as I get back from the vacation, all right,

darling? All my best. God bless. God bless.

take much longer, baby. We're going to die like rats in here.

You're fucking up my life here. Do you understand that?

Huh?

I had to fire the goddamn maid. You know what that means?

No clean laundry.

No clean dishes.

Garbage up the yin -yang.

Dust everywhere.

Come on, honey. Get your ass together.

We're living like pigs here.

Come on, lady. You're going to have to make some son -of -a -bitch contribution

here. Do you know that?

I mean, come on. Get it in your head.

I supply the food, the clothes, the shelter, the clean sheets, the clean

the toilet paper, and the best of wine.

And complete attention to your selfish ass.

Come on, get your act together, goddammit.

Or else I'll never land on this goddammer. You got that?

Now you get it together, lady, or you're on your way out. And I mean way out.

Here's my gun permit from New York, North Carolina, Texas.

I got a whole bunch of them things if you want to look at them.

That won't be necessary.

May I call you Sam?

I've been called a lot worse.

Sam, we're doing everything we can to find this girl.

I'm sure you are.

But I don't feel that there's anything that you could possibly do that would

anything to the situation.

That might well be, but I've been hired by her mother.

who's paying me a lot of money to come on out here and help you boys locate her

baby girl.

Now, I know you don't want me to lose out on good money.

And I know you don't want me back in the unemployment line, do you?

What I want is for you to keep us informed of everything you're doing and

anything that you might come up with.

No problem.

I used to be a cop. I know what it's like.

We don't want no double work, do we?

No.

All right. My goodness.

All you've got to do is tell me what you boys have found out so far.

Nothing.

Well, there you go.

Then there's absolutely nothing for me to interfere with since you boys got

nothing to start with.

But you'll let us know if you come up with something.

May I call you Jim?

Why not?

Jim, you've got the first name on my list.

It's a hot day today, isn't it?

Richard, I feel weak.

Oh, come on. Women give birth. It's got to be worse than this.

Well, that makes me feel a lot fucking better.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to swear.

Come on. I want to believe, but you make it hard. You make it hard on both of

us. I know. I'm sorry.

Yeah, I know.

Good. It's just that sometimes you can't seem to control it.

You have to help me.

All right.

I will.

Have to pan up, you know.

You know, perhaps it's something in your childhood.

Maybe it's your parents. I mean, did you have any brothers and sisters?

Yes, my brother is a lawyer and my sister, she's a teacher.

And what about your mother?

My mother?

She's fine.

Did she swear a lot?

No, never.

Oh, all right. Well, what about your father?

My father died in Vietnam.

The service?

Yeah. What branch?

The Navy serving with the Marines.

The Marines?

I knew it.

I knew it. I know all about them. All they're trained to do is drink, swear,

kill, and not necessarily in that order.

My father was a chaplain.

A chaplain?

Well, I tell you what, I'll get you some water. I'll get you some clothes.

You've been through too much.

My name is Sam Weston. Now, you people rent limousines, right?

Say that again?

I'm sorry, I don't understand you.

My question is, you people rent limousines, right?

Well, let's try this one.

Do you have anybody who works for your company that speaks English?

Comprende English?

Well, can I talk to your boss?

I want to talk to the guy that you work for. Comprende?

Yes, sir.

And how are you? Well, thank you very much.

Sam Weston here.

Now, I understand you people rent limousines.

Big, long cars?

Yes. I'm a private detective, and I'm trying to track down a black limo rented

on April 5th of this year.

I don't understand you, sir.

Where are you from?

Korea. Yes.

That's a nice town, sir. I just love that place.

You got anybody else who speaks English at your place?

What's wrong?

What's wrong?

I'm alone here.

I don't like being alone.

I hate being alone.

Look, calm down, okay?

Richard, I'm trying.

I can't take anymore of this.

I'm trying, but I just can't take anymore.

Everything's going to be fine, okay?

Richard, this is not...

Fine. This is weird.

When it's fine, it's fine. When it's weird, it's weird. This is weird.

Just don't cry anymore, okay? I can't stand it when you cry, all right? Just

stop it.

I need some space.

I need something for me.

I tried to make a statement. I was wrong.

I tried to say some things. I was wrong.

You know what?

I think we're making some headway here.

I am dying in here and you are talking about Hedway!

I'm gonna die in this sinking rotten hole.

The night we spent together was the most

beautiful night of my life.

I swear to you I will do whatever you want.

All I want is more of you.

It's all I have.

Is that too much?

I have to get out of here.

I have to see you.

I don't believe you.

God, this is exasperating.

Emmanuel, I'm sorry.

I really am sorry.

I feel your pain and yet I desperately need your love.

I feel your strength.

The strength of your beauty even through this metal door.

Nothing could separate us.

And I mean nothing.

The look of you, the thought of you, it permeates my mind.

You know, anger, anger has made me say and do many, many ugly things

that I'm not proud of.

When actually, my heart, mind, and soul adores you.

I am so thankful that you're here with me.

So that I can tell you how much I love you.

If you can find a way to forgive me, and I mean forgive me, and if you can find

a way to reciprocate my love, I will be with you always.

You don't even believe this girl has been kidnapped, do you? Do you know

she's up in Aspen, Colorado, shacked up with some guy, or in New York, or

France, or... Huh?

No, I don't know where she is.

And neither do I.

This is a shitty way to make a living.

Let's go to lunch.

You need to get out of here, man.

Blow the stink off of you.

Let the lady come in and clean the place up.

Start fresh.

Cop with a heart.

I love it.

Thank you.

Yes, President.

All right.

I'll make a couple of calls off your list.

Hello, this is Sergeant Lightell of LAPD.

Yes, do you rent limos out of your place?

I want to know if you rented out a black limo 18 days ago.

That would be the fifth.

Yeah. Okay, I'll wait.

Yeah?

545, you say?

A black one?

Uh -huh.

And do you happen to have the guy's name?

Yeah, sure. I got it.

You don't have his address, do you?

Uh -huh.

Yeah, got it. Thank you. Thank you.

Yes, if I need anything else, I'll give you a call, okay?

Thank you.

Let's do lunch.

Hey, I got a lead.

You got a what?

A lead.

You know what a lead is, don't you?

Talk to me, Jim.

I called this guy up in Pecorino.

He says that he rented a black limo to this guy at this address at 5 .45 a .m.

on the morning of the finish.

Great.

Hey, I just dialed the next number on the list.

What's the problem?

No problem.

Yeah, but you're acting like there's a problem.

Me? Acting like there's a problem? Oh, yeah.

I just spent 27 hours on that telephone calling everybody in the world.

I got nothing.

Now, you make one phone call, and you got our man.

I know exactly what you're doing.

What am I doing?

You, Pete, how you work.

Because I know damn well that since you know you can't go in and arrest him, you

want me to do the dirty work for you, don't you?

Isn't that how you people work?

And what the hell do you mean by you people?

And don't tell me the racial innuendos are starting.

There was no racial innuendo.

I just call them as I see them. I call a spade a spade.

I was talking about LAPD, the way you people do business.

I should have spoken more clearly.

I could have been referring to you people as assholes.

Real nuts.

Real good. I'm out of here.

Sam?

What?

Good luck.

You owe me 50 cents for that phone call.

See ya.

It's a little rough up in here.

Come on, babe.

Oh,

come here.

I want you to see something.

Look at that view.

I don't see much of anything.

Well, you will when I cut that tree down.

Hey, look at this rope. Here, grab this, okay? Because we're going to have to

pull ourselves up the rest of the hill. I'm going to lead the way, okay?

Okay, you're behind me?

Yeah. Okay, here we go.

Pull up.

Where are you taking me?

You said you wanted to go out.

Well, when I said out, I meant out. This is the back of your house.

No, out, out. Look up there. You see the sky?

That's out.

I mean, you're about as far out as I can trust you. Here, come on. Grab my hand.

Come on.

Swing up in here. Action.

Way to go.

Well, here it is.

What do you think?

It's fantastic.

Come on.

Really is nice up here, isn't it?

Yeah.

Well, all it takes is a little cooperation.

I know that now.

Do you?

Mm -hmm.

You know, I'm not going to go to jail for this. I hope you know that.

I don't want that.

That's a relief.

That's a relief for me.

So it's, uh, it's you and me against the world from here on in, huh?

You have to understand something.

What's that?

I'm different now from when you met me.

You gotta forget that woman. She doesn't exist.

I'll tell you something.

Let's do it together.

You and me.

Let's make it happen.

I mean, I've got the money.

I've got the power.

You've got the talent.

Let's make it a smooth ride.

You really mean it?

Yes, I do.

Can we do it again?

Right now?

Let's go, baby. You're moving in with me.

Everything's going to be just fine.

I know it will.

Listen, I'm going to get your clothes, okay?

So why don't you go down there and just get in bed.

I'll be waiting for you, baby.

All right.

Emmanuel.

Emmanuel.

Come on, honey. We made a deal.

Don't break a deal. Come on up on the floor.

Up on the goddamn floor.

Hi, Dick.

How's it going?

Hi. Is that you?

How you doing?

It's me, Richard.

Listen, it was all over, baby.

I mean, it was all over. I was letting you go. You're free to go anywhere you

want, anytime you want, any place you want.

I love you, baby.

Thanks, Dick.

You're welcome. Listen to me.

I got us first -class tickets to the Bahamas.

Just you and me, baby.

Just you and me. I mean, all the way. Do you understand that?

I mean, are you staying with me?

Royal Danish Cruise Lines, you don't believe me? Well, check it out, okay?

Check it out, guy. I got the tickets in my tan coat.

I mean, go ahead, you see?

Inside breast pocket. Go up there and look. Please, for me, okay?

Please, for me right now.

Would you check one for me?

God, I miss you.

I miss you, baby.

Are you listening to me, honey?

You're not thinking of leaving me here, are you?

Of course I hear you, sweet cakes.

Oh, thank God.

Jesus, you made me feel alone.

What would you like for dinner?

For dinner?

For dinner?

Yeah Emmanuel Griffith Yes I'm Sam Weston.

I was hired by your mother to find you.

Oh Well, you found me hold it

Lady a lot of people worried about you

The thing is Sam

I needed some time for myself, okay?

So you tell my mom I love her, everything's fine, and I'll send her the

You tell them I'll be back.

Good morning ladies, and welcome to a man's world.
