All language subtitles for A Man Called Hawk s01e03 Hear No Evil

This is Henry. How can I help you?

Be nice, sister.

See if Hawk is there.

Just a moment, please.

Hawk, we have a phone call.

Right over there.

Talk to me quick.

Uh, Hawk, it's me.

Be cool now, because like it's no real
emergency, but there's been some trouble

in the building.

Four robbers here within one month. You
contemplate moving?

Nope. That's why I called you.

I mean, look, I'm not going to be pushed
around by some cat burglar. Neither are

my friends.

Your friend see him?

No, but she heard him.

Came in her bedroom window.

Told her he'd kill her if she turned on
the lights, but...

She heard his voice and recognized him.
Yes?

Who is it?

Uh, it's the, uh, super Miss Emily.

Miss Emily, this is my man, Hawk.

It's very nice to meet you, Hawk.

He can do the job.

Who told you, babe?

I forgot my wallet. I'm going back. Stay
here.

My wallet.

Forget it. Go on. I'll catch up with
you.

Well, this can't be happening to me.
Why?

Because I own you.

after he'd gone.

Afraid to move, afraid he'd come back.

He's been here before.

Here?

In the building.

I've heard his voice over the intercom
downstairs.

Unmistakable. Oh.

Very pronounced southern accent.

Appalachian, North Carolina, Tennessee.

There was something else I remember.
He... Oh, no.

Damn it.

It's not just the things he took. It's
the way he invaded my life. I hate that.

You said there was something else.

A scent?

Gasoline.

Must have been on his...

Hands or his clothes.

Not a lot to go on, huh?

I know. Don't get my hopes up that
you'll find any of my stuff.

I can live without the jewelry and the
radio, but I just paid $4 ,000 for my

computer and I need it for my class.

I'm a teacher, you see.

I know.

You do?

You teach at Gallaudet University.

Have we met before?

Years ago.

I brought a little girl to the school to
learn how to sign.

You taught her.

She taught me.

What was her name?

Amy. I'm sorry I don't remember her.
Where is she now?

Gone.

This might take a while.

Um, I don't know how much money I could
pay you.

You already have.

What time did you get in last night?

Late. We missed the subway. Had to take
the bus.

It'd be different if I could drive the
car.

Now, Jeffrey, we've been all through
that.

I'm not deaf.

We know that.

You don't really need a car on campus.

Then why do I bother with this thing,
huh? If I can't do anything normal.

No one said you were not normal.

Mom does.

I said impaired.

There's a difference.

That will be all, Alice.

Well, we're so glad that you could spend
the weekend with us.

I know how far it is from Texas.

Mom, you can't read your lips when you
talk so fast.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

I know I'll get better with practice.

No, no, no, not a word.

You want to tell your folks what we did
last night?

Forget it.

I never really thought what happened
anyway.

Say it one time.

He's out.

Who's in?

Me. I'm busy.

I'm paying.

What for?

Information about a man who sells things
that don't belong to him. Palm brokers

say I can find him here.

Like I said, I'm busy.

Car need fixing?

What do you think?

It ain't broke. Don't fix it.

What the hell are you trying to do? You
trying to kill me?

Now, the man I'm looking for has a
southern accent that smells like

Man, you're crazy. I never did... Next!

Ding! Truth time. I got friends,
nighttime friends, daytime friends. Say,

the thief I'm looking for. Say, you
broke into the lady's room last night.

never did.

Now, listen.

Don't you lie to me.

Here, a list.

You got eight bells.

Everything on this list goes back, or
I'll be back.

Okay, man, okay.

Listen, between you and I, okay? No
cops?

Depends. Man, I just got out of the
joint. I gotta have that.

You don't understand.

I'm hooked.

You chose the way you live, now choose
the way you die.

Your way, my way.

Some expressions are very difficult.

to control.

For example, during emotional arousal,

the pupils expand.

A listener provides

a continuous commentary of his reactions
to what is being said by

small movements of the eyebrows.

The mouth indicating puzzlement,
surprise, disagreement.

For instance, Jeffrey is obviously
bored.

You've heard all of this before?

Uh, no.

Well, do you understand everything?

I've said.

Oh, I can read your lips.

Turn off your aid.

Go ahead.

Can you hear me?

A little.

Now.

Can you read my lips?

If you could read my hands,

you would answer.

Anyone know what Jeff just proved?

He's a jerk.

No. No, no, no, no.

He just proved how important total
communication is. You've got

to use everything you can.

Hey, thanks a lot.

Take it easy.

You're just like the rest of us.

You're wrong.

Look, I'm sorry. I just don't think I
belong here.

Surely, I can't... Oh, forget it.

Look, I don't know what I'm doing.

You're the best thing here.

And you're the only thing I care about.

Will you walk with me?

You should have called the police
immediately.

Now, this man with the dog, what was the
color of his hair?

I'm not sure.

You're not?

Look, he saw me. That's all that
matters.

Uh -huh.

Some discrepancies, yeah.

Yeah, they had a few beers and went to
an X -rated flick.

Didn't want to tell anyone.

Uh -huh.

Yes, sir, we believe it was the boy's
library card.

He dropped it. They could have picked it
up and traced it.

Yeah. All right, we'll work on it.

Look, our sketch artist is out. It's
tomorrow.

I guess so. Good. And where can I pick
them up?

Well, Jeffrey will be at home.

No, he won't.

Helen. The boy could be in danger.

You want him to be home the rest of his
life?

Now, you said we should not worry too
much.

You know he hates it there. Look, when
this is all over, we can send him off to

another school.

If we let Jeffrey drop out now, he will
never go back.

And he needs to face that reality.

Roger, he needs help that he can't get
at another school.

What about police protection?

I can manage a couple of days, but after
that... Well, we'll hire a bodyguard.

For both of them.

Where do we look?

A phone book?

Why not?

I think I might know someone.

This is crazy.

I don't want to go to school.

I mean, what are you going to do? Sleep
in our room? Go to our classes? Join us

in the John?

What makes you so good anyway?

You're not even a detective.

Get out of the car!

Where? What, here? Out!

I think you should take me home. Oh, you
do? Is that a command?

Am I your servant?

You've been talking, and you listen.

Now, whether you live or die is not the
question. It's how you live.

Now, as long as I choose to keep you in
good health, you will do what I say.

Understood? Now, you get back in the
car, and don't you say another word.

No one in this world is going to touch
you unless I say so. You understand?

I'll get him. There are too many
students next time. I don't want to hear

No excuses.

The kid's dead.

I'll take care of it.

Music is part of everyone's life. So is
dance.

There's very little they can't do.

Notice how the cameras have special
monitors on them?

So the crew can see the signals being
sent from the director's booth.

The program's called Death Mosaic.

They've been doing it since 1984.

It's the only one of its kind in the
world.

By the way, did I say thanks?

For what?

Last night, this pizza man came to my
door and made a delivery.

Everything I had stolen was in the back
of his truck.

I gather you spoke to someone on my
behalf.

I spake the truth, and he was very
appreciative.

If you wanted to have a private
conversation, why did you ask me alone?

Tell me, Jeopardy. I forgot.

Don't do that. You know I don't
understand that.

You're making no effort whatsoever.

Nothing wrong.

You may have noticed Jeff's having a
hard time adjusting.

He had meningitis about three years ago,
and all of a sudden he was left with a

profound and progressive hearing loss.

The others were born deaf, so he doesn't
identify with them, or he won't.

He just can't admit he'll soon be like
them.

You've been going on for, you know, 20
minutes. I'm totally left out.

He's just going with the hands. He knows
I don't understand.

You don't understand, stupid.

I don't have to. I can hear.

Not for long.

All right.

That's enough. That's enough.

Now. What's this all about?

I don't have to learn how to sign if I
don't want to.

Well, what's the use?

You always take his side anyway.

You said Langston?

That's right, Paul.

My son was very impressed with him. Said
that if he did enroll, they'd like to

look him up.

Here he is.

Room 108, Residence Hall 5.

Right. Residence Hall. Fuck.

You don't have more than one Langston,
do you?

This boy's black.

I'm sure it's him.

From Texas?

From Midlands, I think.

This boy's from Abilene.

Much obliged for your help. I'll get
these forms all filled out and return

to you.

Do you have a telephone I could use?

Downstairs.

Corridor on the left.

Thanks again.

Just trying to be a good counselor.

Mr. Stone and I thought it'd be a nice
idea if the boys had a weekend together.

You know, get to know a local family.

Boy, can I pick him.

You're supposed to be there by two o
'clock.

What do I introduce you as?

Oh.

Oh.

I'm sorry we're late.

Lieutenant Hodges, Mr. Carter, this is
Hawk. We won't keep the kids long. We'll

work with a sketch artist, see if we can
come up with a composite. You guys

ready?

He wants Hawk to come. That won't be
necessary.

Yes, it is.

This is a police matter. You got a
badge?

They go, I go. I think we can protect
the boys.

I know I can. I don't think you
understand.

Yes, he does. He just don't give a damn.

I hear you get paid a lot of money. You
worth it? Yes.

Now look, I already talked to Mr.

and Ms. Stone. I got their permission,
so you don't have to worry there. And

this being a police investigation which
you have no interest in, I'd appreciate

it if you'd just back off.

This once, huh?

Deal? Trade.

Trade what?

No hitman chases people with a dog, and
no mugger is worried about chasing down

deaf children. Now, you tell me what's
going down.

We don't know yet.

Victim was an ex -con, just released
from law.

Professional thief named Earl Willis.
His wife said he was being recruited

into the rackets, but he was trying to
go straight.

That's it.

Satisfied?

You listen to me.

Your parents are a long way off, so you
got to trust somebody.

The man doesn't need me.

You'll be safe with him.

Okay?

I'll give you this one.

Did I miss something?

He acts like he's doing us a favor.

Did you order a pizza?

Foolish behavior. I did what you told
me.

That doesn't make us friends.

But it doesn't make us enemies either.

I got friends, if that's what you mean.

People who can dig your grave.

Earl Willis a friend of yours?

Hey, I don't know nothing about that.

He was liberated from prison like you.

He was a thief just like you.

He has expired, not like you.

Tell me why.

Well, I don't know. It's honest to God.

Now, I do know about needle marks. Now,
tell me, was this a chihuahua that bit

you? I can't.

You already did.

Second question.

Who scares you so?

Nobody.

You look out there, see those streets,
the waterfront, all the dark places

there are no lights.

Do you know who owns all of that?

I do.

All that you see between earth and sky
belongs to me.

You know why?

Because I claim it, huh?

Me entiendes?

In the time of night, the hawk takes
over. He goes where he wants to.

He flies to where no one can hide.

In the night, the hawk rules the world
out there.

Now, what scares you so?

He's not out there.

He's inside.

And he'll kill me if I talk.

Need to talk.

I'm off duty.

But didn't you notice?

Nope. I got a feeling that this town
isn't big enough for the both of us.

That was a joke. Been to prison lately?

What? That ain't no joke. Maybe you
should go.

Thief just got out. Same abode as
Willis. And his flesh is perforated with

canine teeth. Fuck! you might be
interested.

Well, I'm not.

Tell you the truth, I really don't give
a damn who killed a little punk.

Except he did it on my turf.

And that's important to me, you know?
Who steps on my turf, you know what I

mean? I checked up on you. Vietnam
heroes, some professional fights.

Ancient history.

And you act like a P .I.

But you don't carry a license.

Don't need one.

The folk know me. You seem to be well
-connected here. Not all bad marks,

either.

But you're walking on a thin line.

Say what's on your mind, policeman.

Name's Hodges.

And if I catch you stepping off that
line, I'm gonna nail you faster than

I was polite this afternoon because of
the kids. But no more.

Now do me a favor.

Get out of my face.

What's he doing here?

Wasting my time. Where are the children?

I dropped him off at school.

Alone?

Look, I don't think there's a problem.

Now, those kids never could agree on
what they saw, except for the dog.

But to tell you the truth, I think they
were both drunk.

You think?

Okay, okay, don't freak out. It was just
the ashtray.

I don't know what you're so angry about.

You know.

Hey, I broke the rules, so report me.

I'm going out.

Paul.

You say you had a gun permit?

You got friends in high places.

Look, I guess I was wrong about the
kids.

Maybe about a couple other things, too.

Maybe.

When will Paul's mother be back?

Is there any way to reach her, Mrs.
Adams?

I see.

Oh, no, no, he's fine. He's just a
little anxious to come home.

What?

Yes, I'll tell him.

Friday will be fine.

No, no.

Don't worry.

You'll be safe with us.

Yes, there's plenty of room.

And Jackie will be with you.

Hard to believe this is really
happening.

Did you hear me?

Yes.

I'm going to call the school in the
morning and tell them that you won't be

coming back.

It was wrong to keep you there anyway.

Maybe when this is all over, you can
come downtown and work for me.

You don't really need a degree, right?

Name was Lou Davis. The car was stolen.
No local record, but we're checking with

the bureau.

Did you reach Paul's family?

Only his grandmother.

His mother's away on a business trip
till the weekend.

Well, I've made arrangements for him to
stay with us until then.

Honey, not right now. You can't.

Here.

This is my home address.

I'll always be available to you.

Okay?

I've got authorization to put a 24 -hour
guard on your home. Thank God. Here's

his statement.

The address, telephone, how do I find
it? You'll know where to find me.

Well, now that the police have arranged
protection, I guess there's really no

need.

I cannot tell you how grateful we all
are.

Help!

Let the wind.

I will never be far away from you.

You understand?

child was laying in the street, heart
cut open, blood all over the place, and

all the man had to say was, you should
have called earlier.

Fact is, the child didn't have a nickel
to call, and even if he did, the man was

wrong.

What's he care? He don't know nothing
about us.

It's all in the attitude you growed up
with.

When I was a boy, people paid attention
when a child was hurt, and not just

black people.

That's why I say we'd be foolish to
think he'd do what we want him to do,

if we got a nickel.

So when we got to do a thing, we got to
do it ourselves,

whether he wants us to or not.

What'd I say?

The truth.

Because I have no fear.

Ten years ago it was Malcolm the
Fearful. Now it'd be like... The

I love you, praise.

Always words of great comfort, huh?

I miss you.

So, what brings you to the castle?

I know you ain't working for the man.

I'm working on a puzzle and I must
fashion the pieces.

What you got?

Somebody create a schema, maybe from
inside here, against cons on the street.

Go on.

Iced a man named Earl Willis.

Never heard of him.

Lou Davis.

Used to be a turnkey.

Bad dude.

It's a thieves racket, ain't it?

What can you rock to me without finding
trouble?

Ain't no trouble I can't handle.

There's been talk about the guard
capping some of his boys.

Special privileges here and there, if
you're about to get out.

Even early parole.

Only, once you're out on the street,

you've got to steal for them.

Where'd you hide it?

Damn it, Paul, I'm not kidding around.

You're like me.

You're like me.

I'm not like you.

I will never be like you.

I'll always be able to hear something.
I'll be like everybody else.

You know, I hate you for doing this.

Ha!

Read my lips, dummy.

I hate you for doing this.

Found it.

I guess I was wrong.

I'm sorry.

Rock! I said I was sorry.

Boy, you people.

What? What are you trying to tell me,
that I'm a jerk?

You're weird!

Hey, I'm not the weirdo here.

You are.

You know, this is the real world, buddy.
If you don't like it, why don't you go

back to where you belong?

How long has he been in there?

Was he clean?

Well, suppose you search him again. And
this time, find something.

No.

I don't care if they have to carry him
out.

I want him to get the message.

Say where he was going.

All he did was split.

He'll be back.

Probably come back here. He likes it so
much.

And you won't be back.

Not in a million years.

It's that bad, huh?

Look, I know you mean well.

I just never felt that comfortable here,
you know?

Not even with hearing students?

They want to be here. I don't.

How long did the doctors give you? A
year?

Six months?

Jeff, why take the hard way?

Look around you. Everything you need or
want is here.

What I want is to work with my dad.

He agrees with me.

I know. He told me.

That's not unusual.

Fathers are the most defensive, the
least to admit that their child has a

problem. But he's not helping you with
his own guilt.

And you're not helping yourself by
running away.

Hey, Miss Howell, it's Paul who ran
away.

You're going to blame that on me, too?

Let me blame for everybody.

What happened to you?

Something that you wouldn't understand.
Question is, what happened to you? How'd

he get away?

He sneaked off. No one could have
stopped him.

You try.

Well, what do you mean?

Well, he started it.

He called me weird first.

Oh, no.

What else?

Look, you stop playing games.

You think he might know where he is?

Maybe.

We snuck out a couple of times. He likes
to walk along the water. I could show

you. Uh -uh.

The kid's an eyewitness. Still makes him
a target.

I never really saw the other man with
the dog.

I lied.

I was just trying to drop out of school,
you know?

Paul's the only one in danger here.

You show me.

Hey, wait a minute. I gotta call this
in.

Hey!

Well, it's going to be a long report
anyway.

I'm going home.

Maybe he'll try to reach me. Okay, now
don't worry.

It's a big city. He'll be all right.

He's scared. He's alone.

He's deaf.

Don't tell me he'll be all right.

You okay?

Huh, man?

Huh?

We used to walk from here over to the
river and back.

Talk about anything special?

No. Guess I never wanted to listen.

Trying to be a man. Making decisions.

Don't know how.

When did you learn how to sign?

Long time ago.

Because of your parents?

Young woman. She's 16.

Got sick like you. Lost her hearing.

Hearing aid was of no use, so she
learned to sign.

She loved to talk, so I learned to sign,
too.

She passed on to the spirit smiling, and
I will be eternally grateful that she

could do that.

Hello,

Mrs. Adams?

You don't know me, but I'm here with
Paul, your grandson, in Washington.

Yeah, he's right here.

Yeah, only he can't talk.

I mean here.

So he wants me to tell you that he's
coming home tonight.

Yes, by train.

Oh, no.

No trouble.

I'm just doing the boy a favor.

You have a good day now.

How'd I do?

Abilene, Texas.

The home of a Mr. Paul Langston.

At least that's the son's name.

If it makes him all right, that'll be
fine.

What's the number?

I keep hoping he'll show up or call
or... It's all my fault.

He wouldn't have run away if I hadn't
been... Couldn't have gone home.

To Texas?

Everyone seeks shelter in a storm.

How would he get there?

Hitchhike? Plane, train, bus.

He's old enough to walk, he's scared
enough to.

I don't know. He knows his mother's not
home.

When he came, he took the train. That's
how he got up here.

Beats sitting around.

While you stay, give you a chance to
talk about school.

Man be thinking about changing his mind.

Is that right?

I told Hawk things I couldn't tell my
dad.

Does that make any sense?

Every time my dad looks at me, I know
he's disappointed.

And I'm scared.

I know I'm going deaf.

I'm afraid he won't like me anymore.

Oh, Jeff.

It's okay.

It's okay.

He'll like you, you'll see.

He'll even be proud.

You've made the right decision.

Honest.

I trained Abilene.

Next train to Texas.

Over there. Solid.

All I want is the boy You

must be ready to die

you're a fool

He came back about three weeks ago, the
time his father brought him.

This time, he's ready to learn,

thanks to you.
