All language subtitles for A Man Called Hawk s01e12 Beautiful Are The Stars

Thank you.

I choose to share this volume with you
today.

It was a gift from a very special
friend.

A signed collection of Langston Hughes's
work. It's truly wonderful.

I thought we might share the memory of
the man through his works.

Poetry always informs us of our past.

Yes.

More than we are sometimes aware.

I have known rivers.

I've known rivers ancient as the world.

and older than the flow of human blood
and human veins.

My soul has grown deeper, like the
rivers.

I bathed in the Euphrates when dawns
were young.

I built my hut near the Congo and it
lulled me to sleep.

I looked upon the Nile and raised the
pyramids above it.

I heard the singing of the Mississippi
when Abe Lincoln went down to New

Orleans, and I've seen its muddy bosom
turn all golden in the sunset.

I have known rivers, ancient, dusky
rivers.

My soul has grown deep like the rivers.

Morgan Weaver gave this to me.

Do you remember her?

Morgan Weaver.

A rather striking woman, as I recall.

She still is.

I wish you could do something for me and
her.

I want you to call on her.

I think she needs my help.

help you, sir?

I have an appointment with Mr. Jacobs.

Ah, then you'll want to speak with him
privately. This way, please.

Good day, Mr.

Abraham.

Good of you to come.

Good of you to meet with me.

I suppose the merchandise we talked
about is in that package?

I am an honest man, Mr. James.

I presume you have a package for me as
well.

Hey, you.

Shall we both put up goods on the table?

Come on, come on, man, do it.

Make the exchange.

He's in the back room.

Let's go.

Oh, my God, he's been shot.

He's dead.

Take care of him.

Insurance the trash cans, the jewelry
store, everything.

What are you going to do if the bank
won't extend your mortgage note?

I haven't the remotest idea. There are
taxes, another $2 ,000 in bills.

The phone could go off this week.

The heat would be next.

We could lose this place.

The landmark, you know.

Yes, it's an extraordinary tribute to
the city's history.

It belonged to Georgia Douglas Johnson.

In the 20s and 30s, she held forth with
some of the brightest people of her

generation. Gentle Langston Hughes,
feisty Zora Neale Hurston, Sterling

right here in this parlor.

Since I've retired, I've spent most of
my time here.

Would hurt a great deal to lose this
place.

Now, you agree that we aren't going to
tell her anything about what happened,

right? I said I wouldn't, okay? Okay.
Mary, Lisa, meet my dear friend.

Oh, good day, Mr.

Hawk.

A man got shot.

Lisa? I just couldn't hold it in. It
happened outside Flame Shop. He fell

on Mary and died.

Are you all right?

Yes, just shaking up.

but we're still going to hear Flames
sing tonight. We're invited.

Let's go put these away.

Come on, Lisa. Can't you see Morgan has
company?

It was a pleasure meeting you, Hawk.

Mary and Lisa, what wonderful energy.

That's an understatement when it comes
to my two sisters.

I want to help you, Mrs. Weaver.

Thank you, but I can't let you.

You're just a baby. I am not. I'm 26
years old, and that makes me a woman.

You're 21, and it's time you started
acting like it. I do.

What's this?

You bought that candy, didn't you?

I told you not to buy it. We hardly have
enough money to buy real food. But I

didn't.

Look at this.

Junk. You bought some junk, didn't you?

You're going to have to take it back.

Jacob.

What the hell happened?

I don't know. Did you find the package
Abraham was carrying? No.

Do you know anything, Jacobs?

I'm sorry. It's not your fault.

It's his case, you know.

I spent weeks trying to put this thing
operation into place just to have it

up in our faces like this.

I take it you're not looking forward to
meeting Mr. Schultz.

No, I'm not, Jacobs.

He's going to be very unhappy, and so
will my boss and the South African

ambassador.

Why don't you wrap this thing up and
write up your report?

Do you know anything about the man that
did the shooting out there?

I've seen him around, if that's what you
want to know.

An Africano.

What was he doing?

Snooping around, asking questions.

A frightening man, Hawk.

Do you know anything about the brown man
who was killed?

Never saw him before in my life.

Coming to my show tonight?

I'll be there.

Agent Wilson, you assured me that this
sting operation would get back my

company's property. I know I made the
assurances, Mr. Schultz. The operation

going very well until... Until what,
Agent Wilson?

At your government's request, the South
African Secret Service has agreed to

stay clear of this.

But if you cannot do your job properly,
I'm going to be forced... Look, let me

tell you something. I could care less
about how your government feels.

And the fact that you got burglarized by
some local organization against

apartheid doesn't bother me either.

But rest assured, Mr. Sheldon, I will
not let my personal concerns stop me

doing my job. And right now, the police
are very interested in a murder.

It disturbs me, Agent Wilson, that
you're more concerned with some

than with getting back my merchandise.

And it disturbs me that you're more
concerned about this merchandise and the

fact that a man has been killed over it.

I've been authorized to offer a reward.

One million American dollars, Mr.
Wilson, for the return of the diamonds.

If you'll excuse me.

I'll keep you informed of my progress.

See ya.

Where'd you get those earrings?

I made them. I can make you pay if you
want. Those silly looking things.

Parking in this city is getting to be
ridiculous.

A person can't even park within a block
of their own home anymore.

Don't look now, but there's somebody
behind us.

Oh my God.

Anybody hurt?

No, uh -uh. Fine.

All right, let's go home.

Do you know why this man is trying to
harm you?

I think so.

Tell me why.

I'll show you.

I think this is what that man wants.

My, my, this is quite a fortune.

Where did you get those?

I think the man that got shot must have
put them in our grocery bag.

Well, why didn't you tell somebody about
this? I told Mary, but she said they

were junk.

Well, they look like junk. How was I
supposed to know what they were? Mary,

I keep these?

No. Of course.

I'll see what I can do.

Mr. Wilson, I told this gentleman we
only have a few minutes to spare.

A few minutes is all I need.

He says his name is Hawk. Okay, that's
all right. Thank you, Margaret.

So, how can I help you, Hawk?

I understand you're the federal agent in
charge of secret operations.

Well, that's not exactly true.

Well, now, the men who interrupted your
tea party yesterday are now trying to

kill a group of innocent women over a
bag of uncut diamonds. Why?

You have the diamonds?

All I have is questions.

If you know the whereabouts of those
stones, you could help us avert an

international mess.

My, my, my. Politics rears its ugly
head. Explain.

Those stones belong to a South African
mining company.

They were stolen by some political
dissidents and smuggled here.

The mining company has asked our
government's assistance in regaining

Now, do you know where they are?

What went wrong?

You don't need to know.

It's classified.

Who the hell are you, anyway?

That's an excellent question, but no
answers from you, no answers from me.

An opposing -looking man is going to
pass your desk in about 30 seconds.

Tail him.

Good of you to meet me, Mr. Schultz.

Good of you to call, Mr. Stringer.

Rumor has it that you're interested in
acquiring some diamonds, Mr. Schultz.

Yes, the very ones the Treasury
Department were trying to recover before

efforts spoiled them.

I looked you up, foreign mercenary.

Did you go for the biggest price?

I've done your homework, Captain.

How much money do you think you can get
for my property on the open market? $300

,000. Half a million if I find the right
buyer.

I'm prepared to make the situation a lot
easier for both of us.

How's that?

You find the diamonds, I'll give you the
$1 million that my company is offering

as a reward.

Oh, then you get what you want and I get
what I want. Is that it? My country

avoids a lot of unnecessary
embarrassment.

When will I have them back?

Well... As soon as I eliminate the man
who has them now in his sight.

I would appreciate it if you would share
any information about the African man

who was killed in Georgetown.

That would be Maruzi Abraham.

He was in the movement, Namibia, Soweto.

He saw a lot of death.

His business in D .C.

Spear of the nation.

Spear of the nation.

Against apartheid.

He was here to exchange diamonds for
money to be used against our government

its policies.

And his life was taken in the effort.

I appreciate the delicate nature of your
situation.

But if you could share anything with me
about your mission here.

I can.

But I won't. I fear these walls have
ears.

But you can get other answers from the
American citizens against apartheid. And

be careful.

Many people are interested.

Many powerful people.

Mandela. You're welcome.

Beautiful are the stars, a sight to see.

Beautiful are the stars, bring peace to
me.

Lisa, there aren't any stars out
tonight. They are in my mind.

Look at this.

A reward?

One million dollars?

Mary, our problems will be over. We
never have to worry again.

and Morton could really retire and let
her mind rest and... Just one problem.

don't have the diamonds.

Hawk probably already turned them in.

Not all of them.

Lisa, we can't keep them. It would be
wrong.

We have to turn them in also.

I'm looking for the Africana we're
fervently seeking, then.

I don't know what you're talking about,
mister.

I'm betting you do.

I'm also betting that you are the inside
man that tipped up the hold -up guy.

No. You set me up, didn't you?

No. Well, you do know who he is, don't
you?

What do you mean?

Well, I know you've seen him around the
neighborhood asking questions, haven't

you? I don't know. I can't remember.

Ah, you have amnesia, or you just won't
answer me, huh?

Please, look, I can't tell you anything.

He'll kill me.

You watch this.

Just brownie.

How's your memory now?

The uninitiated would think you and Mr.
Johnson are the best of buddies.

Get him.

All it takes is a little encouragement.

Will he talk?

A man is afraid to. He has an awful lot
of secrets.

So do you.

I tried to do a little checking up on
you. You tried to?

I didn't have high enough clearance to
hire your file.

Then you should have asked me.

I need the diamonds back.

Say, why are you such a top secret?

Only to those who have no reason to
know.

Good to see you.

Always a pleasure.

Jean -Paul and I were working on this
new tune of yours.

You mind if I help you find it? Please,
please.

Sally.

I should have a

You have the diamonds?

Well, we locked up Johnson, Mr. Philp.
We got him for conspiracy to commit

theft and murder.

My company doesn't care about some
little jewelry clock.

The diamonds, Mr. Wilkins.

We don't know where they are.

How disappointing.

My company and my government are going
to be very disappointed.

Not my problem anymore.

When a man starts out with nothing.

When a man starts out with his hands
empty but clean.

When a man starts out to build a world,
he starts first with himself

and the faith that is in his heart, the
strength there, the will there to build.

First in his heart is the dream.

Then the mind starts seeking a way.

His eyes look out on the world, on the
great wooded world.

on the rich soil of the world, on the
rivers of the world.

The eyes see their materials for
building, see the difficulties too, and

obstacles.

Mind seeks a way to overcome these
obstacles.

The hands seek tools to cut the wood, to
till the soil, and to harness the power

of the waters.

Then the hands seek other hands to help,
a community of hands to help.

Thus the dream becomes not one man's
dream alone, but a community dream. Not

dream, but our dream. Not my world
alone, but your world and my world,

belonging to all the hands who build.

That's a beautiful reading.

It's timely prose, my friend.

Do you have a poem that you'd like to
share, Hawk?

The Heart of a Woman.

It goes forth with the dawn.

In the wake of the echoes, the heart
calls home.

The heart of a woman falls back with the
night as it tries to forget that it

dreamed of the stars as it breaks,
breaks, breaks on the sheltering

bars.

Why would you want to know something
like that?

We were just wondering.

Yeah.

Turn them over to the proper authority.

Thanks.

You're quite welcome.

We cannot eliminate this man Hawk and
get back my property. I'll be forced to

make other arrangements.

I can handle the man, but he's not in
possession of the diamonds.

What? Who has them?

The agent they call Wilson.

The man they call Hawk handed them over
to him when my contact was arrested.

Then you have a new assignment, Mr.
Stringer.

How long will you be out of town, Mr.
Wilson?

Oh, just a few days. Could you put this
stuff in storage for me too, Margaret?

And you won't be able to get a hold of
me, so I'll have to call in for my

messages.

Man of many faces, eh, Hawk?

And of many moods. Right now, your
presence is not creating one of my

ones. I need your help.

Indeed. I didn't turn the diamonds over
to the South Africans.

Then you need to get out of the country.

Please, listen.

I need to talk to you about the American
citizens against apartheid.

And welcome to ACAA Headquarters.

And this... This is my desk.

I applaud your effort.

Apartheid is not one of my favorite
concepts either.

But what do you want from me, Wilson?

Help me to stay alive.

Long enough to find a buyer for the
diamonds.

So you've turned thief like everybody
else?

If it helps to break apartheid,
absolutely.

But don't worry, the money will be well
spent. I promise you. I'm not interested

in promises, only in results.

And I don't think you can deliver
anything but pain to whomever else is

in this either.

Hey, hey, hey!

I can't let you leave. You know too
much.

I know you must be confused about what
to do.

Why don't you turn in the diamonds,
collect the reward, use the money as you

fit? Obviously I'm excluded from any
such claim.

You gonna pull the trigger or what?

Only by reputation.

I knew he was in town trying to make
contact with us. That's why I set up the

thing operation.

I figured he'd exchange the diamonds for
the money and we'd make contact later.

What does the South African mining
company have to do with this?

Peter Schultz is their representative
here.

He came to me on advice of the State
Department.

Offering to pay for the return of the
diamonds.

I'm sure that Stringer's on his payroll,
too.

Who? The man who tried to kill me just
before I met you.

As long as I have those diamonds,
believe me, he'll try again.

They don't care who dies.

They just want their diamonds back.

Are you a lawyer?

Yeah.

And you've just got enough food for a
client.

That's right.

If your heart was any bigger, you'd be
dead.

But you'll live.

What do you think is taking so long?

How should I know?

Maybe they're trying to decide how much
money to give us.

What are you doing?

One million.

divided by 50, equals 20 ,000.

20 ,000 each, Mary.

That's $40 ,000.

Unfortunately for you ladies, the reward
applies only to the entire cash of

merchandise.

You're not even going to give us any
money for the two diamonds, are you?

I'm afraid not, Miss Weaver.

That is, of course.

Unless you can tell me where the others
are located.

Well, they were turned into you, weren't
they?

I'm afraid not.

You may go, ladies.

Hawk!

Fools. Now that man is going to bother
Hawk, and Hawk is going to tell Morgan,

and... We are in deep trouble.

We don't even have the two diamonds. We
could have sold them.

I think we should tell Hawk what we did.

What you did.

But you're right.

Wait a minute.

We don't even know his number.

I bet Morgan's old friend has it.

But that means we'll have to call
Morgan. She'll have questions.

Well, I know exactly what to tell her.

What are you going to tell her?

Something crazy. Something way out.
Something she'll believe.

What's that?

The truth.

Harm has come to everyone who has
possessed these.

You must turn them over, no matter what
they represent.

It's the right thing to do. The right
thing isn't always the best thing.

The truth is true.

There is one man who will stop at
nothing to get this treasure.

He must be stopped.

Yeah.

Mary.

Yeah.

Mary.

Yes, I can reach him.

In fact, he's standing right here.

Don't act nervous. But I am nervous.

Where's Hawk? How should I know? We're
not even supposed to be here.

Come on.

Do you think he'll give us the diamond?

I don't know. All we can do is ask for a
good cause.

Yeah, I hope he doesn't get angry with
us. Angry?

Why should he be? We haven't done
anything wrong.

Well, what do we do if he doesn't show
up? Will you stop worrying about

everything? You are so nervous. Nervous?
You're the one who's nervous.

That's a good place to be.

Now, before you say anything, I just
want you to know that we never meant to

keep the diamonds. Not even two of them.

They look so pretty. Lisa.

And anyway, we gave them back to Mr.
Schultz.

Schultz. Schultz.

Schultz. His name was Schultz, not
Schultz. Now, be quiet for a minute.

Mr. Schultz said that if we brought him
all the diamonds, He'd let us have

reward money.

And we sure could use it, you know, to
give to Morgan for the house and

everything. It is much too dangerous for
you to be involved.

You see the door over here? Please go
inside and stay.

But we just got here.

And what about the diamond?

Later. Now please do what I ask. Please.

Oh, marvelous.

What? The way he just takes command.

Foolish, that's what you are. You never
grew up. It wasn't my idea to come here

in the first place, and I don't need you
to insult me either. No, you can do

that all by yourself.

Ha, ha, ha.

I'll take the diamond.

No.

Say goodbye.

I got here a little early. No, I'm a
little late.

I wanted to tell you how much we
appreciated all the help you've given

My friend is always there for the
people. He asked and I responded.

You gave much more than was asked of
you.

Your gentle persistence saved our
property and, much more importantly, my

sister's lives.

This is much more than anyone could
normally expect. There's a real sense of

community, Morgan Weaver.

Stars are beautiful.

You love my people.

It was a good deed to allow Morgan and
her sisters the reward for the recovery

of the diamonds.

Yes, Morgan deserves the best.

All the current debts will be paid.

There will be something left over for
the rest of their needs. It's a miracle.

As you say, good deeds have lives of
their own. Get you in trouble?

Of course. All that's good is being
done. The paradox is oppression still

lingers in the world.

It's something that will end eventually.

One step, Hawk. One step at a time.
