1
00:00:01,067 --> 00:00:03,467
That's a proxy vote
from John Traynor.
2
00:00:03,536 --> 00:00:05,936
Traynor is
a city council member.
3
00:00:10,643 --> 00:00:13,578
The whole thing is
corrupt and the whole council is in on it.
4
00:00:13,646 --> 00:00:16,274
I'd like to see
Proposition 46D.
5
00:00:16,349 --> 00:00:18,078
The deciding vote
is number five.
6
00:00:18,151 --> 00:00:19,175
My vote now.
7
00:00:19,252 --> 00:00:20,241
How you voting?
8
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,447
Probably for.
9
00:00:22,522 --> 00:00:23,580
Definitely for.
10
00:00:23,656 --> 00:00:24,748
Get out of town, Rockford.
11
00:00:24,824 --> 00:00:25,848
Out?
12
00:00:25,925 --> 00:00:27,051
And don't come back.
13
00:00:33,366 --> 00:00:34,663
(PHONE RINGING)
14
00:00:34,734 --> 00:00:36,065
ROCKFORD
ON ANSWERING MACHINE: This is Jim Rockford.
15
00:00:36,136 --> 00:00:37,660
At the tone, leave your name
and message.
16
00:00:37,737 --> 00:00:38,863
I'll get back to you.
17
00:00:38,938 --> 00:00:40,030
(BEEPS)

00:00:40,106 --> 00:00:42,574
WOMAN: Because where you live
says so much about you,
19
00:00:42,642 --> 00:00:46,009
your home has been
selected by Royal Imperial Roofing and Siding
20
00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:47,546
as our neighborhood showcase.
21
00:00:47,614 --> 00:00:49,548
A bonded representative
will call on you.
22
00:01:51,211 --> 00:01:53,941
All right. All right.
23
00:01:59,853 --> 00:02:03,289
Hello! Hello out there.
24
00:02:07,594 --> 00:02:09,255
You got a minute?
25
00:02:13,500 --> 00:02:16,025
I hope I'm not
interrupting anything.
26
00:02:16,436 --> 00:02:20,770
I'm Carrie Osgood
with INS, Independent News Service.
27
00:02:22,742 --> 00:02:26,701
And I'm doing a
feature article on trout fishing.
28
00:02:30,483 --> 00:02:34,920
Oh, I understand.
A lot of people freeze up when they see these things.
29
00:02:35,722 --> 00:02:37,781
Okay if I take notes?
30
00:02:37,857 --> 00:02:40,587
I don't care what
you do as long as you don't do it here.
31
00:02:41,327 --> 00:02:42,817
I'm sorry.
32
00:02:43,930 --> 00:02:45,693
I guess I did interrupt.
33
00:02:48,168 --> 00:02:50,193
I've been here
since dawn.
34
00:02:50,270 --> 00:02:54,138
If you'd heard of the
fisherman's ethic, you'd just keep moving along.
35
00:02:54,207 --> 00:02:57,233
Okay, okay.
No need to call the shore patrol.
36
00:03:01,714 --> 00:03:06,151
Someone else who doesn't
understand the ethic of the stream or whatever.
37
00:03:19,098 --> 00:03:20,395
Jim.
John.
38
00:03:20,466 --> 00:03:21,660
Did I interrupt
something?
39
00:03:21,734 --> 00:03:25,500
No, no, not a thing.
I was just thinking about dinner.
40
00:03:25,572 --> 00:03:26,732
Yeah?
41
00:03:29,008 --> 00:03:31,772
Oh, no.
You just got the one, huh?
42
00:03:38,251 --> 00:03:43,018
John, I don't suppose
you'd tell a flatlander where you caught those?
43
00:03:43,189 --> 00:03:44,383
(CHUCKLES)
44
00:03:44,457 --> 00:03:48,791
Jim, you're not a
typical tourist like we usually get up here.
45
00:03:48,861 --> 00:03:50,385
You got a feel
for the land.
46
00:03:50,463 --> 00:03:52,658
I could tell that as soon
as I saw you yesterday.
47
00:03:52,732 --> 00:03:54,324
I'll tell you.
48
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:59,068
Downstream a little ways,
you'll find a beaver dam just beyond Beaver Fork there.
49
00:03:59,138 --> 00:04:01,402
You'll find the
best fishing ever.
50
00:04:01,474 --> 00:04:03,465
Hey, here,
try some of these.
51
00:04:03,643 --> 00:04:06,305
This stuff is delicious,
naturally.
52
00:04:10,650 --> 00:04:13,278
Nice, huh? Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
53
00:04:16,422 --> 00:04:18,413
You interested in
a little dinner?
54
00:04:18,491 --> 00:04:20,254
You're on.
Let's go.
55
00:04:25,732 --> 00:04:27,063
All right.
56
00:04:30,036 --> 00:04:33,904
You close your eyes
and that malva weed will taste just like watercress.
57
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,904
You won't take it
personally if I pass on the yucca blooms?
58
00:04:40,213 --> 00:04:42,408
No, that's all right by me.
59
00:04:43,549 --> 00:04:46,882
But you'd better
get as much nature as you can, Jim.
60
00:04:46,953 --> 00:04:49,387
The public's got
their back up against the wall, Jim.
61
00:04:49,822 --> 00:04:52,416
It's too late
to have a home on the range,
62
00:04:52,558 --> 00:04:54,423
but there is a chance
that they can have a place
63
00:04:54,494 --> 00:04:57,725
where they can see
nature as it was before man got to it.
64
00:04:58,598 --> 00:05:00,327
How do you like that trout?
65
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:01,389
Hey, delicious.
66
00:05:01,467 --> 00:05:02,456
Good.
67
00:05:03,303 --> 00:05:06,272
John, what did you mean
when you said
68
00:05:06,339 --> 00:05:09,137
"the public's last chance
to see nature"?
69
00:05:11,244 --> 00:05:12,506
Jim...
70
00:05:13,613 --> 00:05:15,444
Tomorrow, Jim,
I get a chance to be
71
00:05:15,515 --> 00:05:17,210
a part of something
that could be meaningful
72
00:05:17,283 --> 00:05:20,684
to generations of kids
that haven't even been born.
73
00:05:21,354 --> 00:05:22,378
You're staying in Parma,
aren't you?
74
00:05:22,455 --> 00:05:23,820
Yeah.
Look.
75
00:05:25,558 --> 00:05:28,618
Now, look.
Just east of town, right around here,
76
00:05:29,262 --> 00:05:31,093
there's a little
piece of city land...
77
00:05:31,264 --> 00:05:32,288
(EXCLAIMS IN PAIN)
78
00:05:32,365 --> 00:05:34,993
What's the matter, John?
You all right?
79
00:05:36,169 --> 00:05:38,228
You all right,
John? Yeah, yeah.
80
00:05:39,038 --> 00:05:43,532
Just a little pain I've
been having off and on for a couple days.
81
00:05:46,145 --> 00:05:47,737
(CHUCKLES) Yeah.
82
00:05:48,247 --> 00:05:49,771
I'm all right.
83
00:05:54,053 --> 00:05:55,350
Now, you see,
84
00:05:56,856 --> 00:05:59,222
I'm on the Parma
city council.
85
00:06:00,793 --> 00:06:03,557
Now, tomorrow,
we're going to vote on Proposition 46D.
86
00:06:03,629 --> 00:06:05,859
And if that
proposition passes,
87
00:06:05,998 --> 00:06:08,626
this little piece of land
becomes a preserve.
88
00:06:08,701 --> 00:06:11,295
You see, it's
got a playground and a campground...
89
00:06:11,371 --> 00:06:12,360
(GROANS)
90
00:06:13,005 --> 00:06:15,496
John, John,
hey, you all right?
91
00:06:15,675 --> 00:06:17,666
Where is it?
Your stomach?
92
00:06:17,744 --> 00:06:20,269
Where? There?
Yeah. Yeah.
93
00:06:20,346 --> 00:06:21,938
You had your appendix out?
94
00:06:22,014 --> 00:06:23,208
Uh-uh.
95
00:06:23,716 --> 00:06:27,880
Okay, John, you rest
easy. We're gonna have you looked at.
96
00:06:42,769 --> 00:06:46,102
Jim, I can't miss
that meeting tomorrow.
97
00:06:47,407 --> 00:06:50,376
My vote could be the
one to save that land.
98
00:06:50,443 --> 00:06:53,640
All right, all right.
You just try to relax, John.
99
00:06:53,713 --> 00:06:55,647
We'll be at the
hospital soon.

meeting is now in Mrs. Wayne's office
101
00:07:12,565 --> 00:07:14,123
at 2:00 p.m.
102
00:07:14,801 --> 00:07:17,269
All right, tell me
where it hurts.
103
00:07:18,571 --> 00:07:19,765
(GRUNTS)
104
00:07:19,839 --> 00:07:22,831
Right there, right there,
right there. When you let the pressure off.

00:07:22,909 --> 00:07:26,242
Rebound tenderness.
We'll keep him here for a while.
106
00:07:26,312 --> 00:07:27,904
I've got to get back
to Parma.
107
00:07:27,980 --> 00:07:30,175
You better listen
to the doctor, John.
108
00:07:30,249 --> 00:07:32,774
If I were you,
Doc, I think I'd check his diet.
109
00:07:32,852 --> 00:07:35,650
He's into some
very unusual health foods.
110
00:07:37,757 --> 00:07:38,951
What did you
have for dinner?
111
00:07:39,025 --> 00:07:41,960
Malva, yucca blooms,
112
00:07:42,962 --> 00:07:46,193
yerba buena tea
and trout.
113
00:07:47,667 --> 00:07:48,656
Are you a relative?
114
00:07:48,734 --> 00:07:50,395
No, no, no.
I'm a friend.
115
00:07:50,470 --> 00:07:51,459
Hmm.
116
00:07:52,104 --> 00:07:53,230
Jim.
117
00:07:53,873 --> 00:07:56,706
Jim, take this
to Mayor Sindell.
118
00:07:57,477 --> 00:07:59,502
He runs the
Parma Pharmacy.
119
00:07:59,979 --> 00:08:01,571
ROCKFORD: Your proxy vote?
120
00:08:01,647 --> 00:08:02,944
Yeah.
121
00:08:03,015 --> 00:08:04,676
The nurse and the doctor here
can be the witnesses.
122
00:08:04,750 --> 00:08:07,082
It's just in case
I don't make it back in time.
123
00:08:07,153 --> 00:08:10,213
John, I can't take this.
I'm leaving town tomorrow.
124
00:08:10,289 --> 00:08:11,916
Listen, I'll be back
on my feet in no time.
125
00:08:11,991 --> 00:08:14,289
But, John,
I can't take it. I...
126
00:08:14,961 --> 00:08:16,895
Call us in a few hours.
127
00:09:09,015 --> 00:09:10,448
Help you?
Yeah. Mayor Sindell?
128
00:09:10,516 --> 00:09:11,676
That's right.
129
00:09:11,751 --> 00:09:13,514
Fill these all the time.
Pick it up before 6:00.
130
00:09:13,586 --> 00:09:16,180
That's a proxy vote
from John Traynor.
131
00:09:24,997 --> 00:09:28,125
What's the matter?
The proxy is in order, isn't it?
132
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,930
Traynor is
a city council member.
133
00:09:31,003 --> 00:09:33,096
The document is
apparently in order
134
00:09:33,172 --> 00:09:36,073
and subject to the limitations
affecting the original voter. Notwithstanding...
135
00:09:36,142 --> 00:09:39,236
All right, Hy. We don't need
one of your filibusters.
136
00:09:39,312 --> 00:09:40,939
What's with John?
137
00:09:41,347 --> 00:09:43,872
He developed stomach cramps.
I took him to the hospital.
138
00:09:43,950 --> 00:09:46,851
He was really worried
about the vote tomorrow.
139
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:49,444
And you agreed to
vote in his place?
140

00:10:07,206 --> 00:10:10,664
James Rockford.
142
00:10:11,210 --> 00:10:12,973
Staying over
at the motel?
143
00:10:13,045 --> 00:10:14,808
Yeah, that's right.
144
00:10:18,584 --> 00:10:19,778
Look...
145
00:10:21,087 --> 00:10:22,281
Well...
146
00:10:23,889 --> 00:10:25,550
See you tomorrow.
147
00:10:56,622 --> 00:11:01,150
Hi, I'm sorry
if I was rude this morning.
148
00:11:01,227 --> 00:11:03,252
I am here
after a trout story.
149
00:11:03,329 --> 00:11:05,320
And I'm here after trout.
150
00:11:06,165 --> 00:11:09,225
Well, it looks
like we're going to be neighbors.
151
00:11:09,301 --> 00:11:10,359
Oh?
152
00:11:10,436 --> 00:11:12,529
You caused a
lot of excitement at the pharmacy.
153
00:11:12,605 --> 00:11:14,266
It's a small town.
154
00:11:14,807 --> 00:11:16,798
What's the proposition about?
155
00:11:16,876 --> 00:11:19,037
Preserving city-owned land.
156
00:11:19,779 --> 00:11:20,905
I'll check it out.
157
00:11:20,980 --> 00:11:23,608
What for?
I thought trout was your beat.
158
00:11:23,916 --> 00:11:25,144
(MOANS)
159
00:11:25,217 --> 00:11:26,684
Trout!
160
00:11:27,086 --> 00:11:29,748
I'm really sick
of softies.
161
00:11:29,822 --> 00:11:31,414
What?
Softies.
162
00:11:31,490 --> 00:11:33,151
You know, fillers.
163
00:11:35,127 --> 00:11:36,719
I started out
with column enders,
164
00:11:36,796 --> 00:11:40,027
you know, the contractor
who painted the wrong house,
165
00:11:40,099 --> 00:11:44,399
the babysitter who got
stuck to the freshly painted bathroom fixtures.
166
00:11:44,937 --> 00:11:47,098
I have had some
minor success, though.
167
00:11:47,173 --> 00:11:49,300
My feature,
"When the Buzzards Come Back to Hinckley,"
168
00:11:49,375 --> 00:11:51,434
was picked up by
The Washington Post.
169
00:11:51,510 --> 00:11:53,535
(CHUCKLING) What buzzards?
170
00:11:53,979 --> 00:11:56,641
Well, every spring
they migrate back to Hinckley, Ohio.
171
00:11:56,716 --> 00:11:59,014
Like the swallows
to Capistrano.
172
00:12:00,986 --> 00:12:04,786
The trout story, here,
was my editor's idea.
173
00:12:05,891 --> 00:12:08,257
Well, it's...
I better get on it.
174
00:12:09,695 --> 00:12:11,094
It's been nice
talking to you.
175
00:12:11,163 --> 00:12:12,289
Yeah.
176
00:12:32,651 --> 00:12:34,846
Somebody wants
to talk to you.
177
00:12:38,257 --> 00:12:39,383
In the limo, right?
178
00:12:39,458 --> 00:12:40,823
Right.
Yeah.
179
00:13:03,816 --> 00:13:06,751
This is Belding.
Run a license plate for me.
180
00:13:08,287 --> 00:13:09,720
That's right.
181
00:13:15,261 --> 00:13:18,196
It's the Portola Bell.
Famous local landmark.
182
00:13:53,465 --> 00:13:56,923
Here's Rockford.
This is Mr. Gersh. Say hello to Mr. Gersh.
183
00:13:57,002 --> 00:13:58,867
Mr. Gersh.
How are you?
184
00:14:00,239 --> 00:14:01,570
You want to eat?
185
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,164
No, thank you.
186
00:14:04,910 --> 00:14:06,741
No place to eat
in that crummy Parma.
187
00:14:06,812 --> 00:14:09,406
You could die
of mayonnaise poisoning.
188
00:14:10,015 --> 00:14:12,540
I had some nice trout
this afternoon.
189
00:14:13,719 --> 00:14:15,016
Oh, yeah?
190
00:14:17,456 --> 00:14:19,686
You got Traynor's
proxy, right?
191
00:14:20,292 --> 00:14:21,554
Mmm-hmm.
192
00:14:22,628 --> 00:14:24,186
How you voting?
193
00:14:27,199 --> 00:14:31,260
Well, I was expecting
Traynor to get back in time to cast his vote.
194
00:14:34,473 --> 00:14:38,034
If not, I'll vote the way
he was expected.
195
00:14:38,944 --> 00:14:40,639
For or against?
196
00:14:40,713 --> 00:14:43,181
Probably for.
197
00:14:46,252 --> 00:14:48,516
Why don't you make it
definitely for?
198
00:14:48,587 --> 00:14:50,111
Definitely for.
199
00:14:52,124 --> 00:14:54,285
So we understand
each other.
200
00:14:55,461 --> 00:14:57,986
You're probably
wondering why a businessman like me
201
00:14:58,063 --> 00:15:01,157
is involved in a
jerk-water operation like this.
202
00:15:02,668 --> 00:15:07,367
Well, you've got
a right to know. Kids and fresh air.
203
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,701
That says it all.
204
00:15:10,276 --> 00:15:13,143
I don't come on
like some kind of a nature freak.
205
00:15:13,946 --> 00:15:16,141
I just happen
to know from personal experience
206
00:15:16,215 --> 00:15:18,649
what it's like to grow up
in the streets.
207
00:15:19,451 --> 00:15:22,420
I think a nice
little park out here for kids to play in
208
00:15:22,488 --> 00:15:26,481
might just turn
a street kid around. You know what I mean?
209
00:15:27,626 --> 00:15:29,856
Keep him from
a life of crime.
210
00:15:33,699 --> 00:15:37,135
Yeah, that, too.
But what I'm talking about is phobias.
211
00:15:37,736 --> 00:15:39,465
Mental problems.
Now take me.
212
00:15:39,805 --> 00:15:42,171
I was brought up
in a railroad flat.
213
00:15:42,241 --> 00:15:44,835
Today, I'm afraid to fly.
214
00:15:45,911 --> 00:15:48,277
I've got to travel
in this thing.
215
00:15:49,615 --> 00:15:53,517
Now, I also happen to do
a little business for my construction company.
216
00:15:53,585 --> 00:15:56,611
You know,
put in roads and concession buildings...
217

(LAUGHING)
218
00:15:59,658 --> 00:16:02,991
But competitive bidding,
right? I mean, why not me?
219
00:16:05,197 --> 00:16:06,664
So, we understand
each other?
220
00:16:06,732 --> 00:16:08,723
Yeah, I understand
completely.
221
00:16:09,601 --> 00:16:12,035
I don't have to worry
about how you vote,
222
00:16:12,338 --> 00:16:14,329
or you deciding
to leave town?
223
00:16:14,406 --> 00:16:17,398
No, no, no, nothing
to worry about at all.
224
00:16:17,977 --> 00:16:18,966
That's nice.
225
00:16:21,613 --> 00:16:23,604
Now why don't you
get out of here?
226

to talk to you.
230
00:17:09,762 --> 00:17:13,391
The limousine license
is issued to a Newark, New Jersey firm.

Outdoor Construction
Company.
232
00:17:16,935 --> 00:17:21,338
I have a great deal
of information, Rockford.
233
00:17:22,975 --> 00:17:26,035
Like your
private investigator's license number,
234
00:17:26,645 --> 00:17:28,374
your prison record,
235
00:17:28,714 --> 00:17:31,774
along with every legal
problem you've ever had,
236
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:34,042
including parking violations.
237
00:17:42,227 --> 00:17:44,787
I can have that
license reviewed.
238
00:17:44,863 --> 00:17:48,526
I'm a little tired
of being threatened. Just who are you, pal?
239
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,763
I'm not one of those cretins
you sold that proxy to.
240
00:17:51,837 --> 00:17:53,998
I didn't sell
anything to anybody.
241
00:17:54,073 --> 00:17:56,371
Now just what is it
you want, exactly?
242
00:17:56,442 --> 00:17:57,932
Get out of town, Rockford.
243
00:17:58,010 --> 00:17:59,102
Out?
244
00:17:59,178 --> 00:18:01,271
You heard me.
Out of town.
245
00:18:01,713 --> 00:18:03,078
And don't come back.
246
00:18:37,716 --> 00:18:40,344
I thought I might as well
read Prop 46,
247
00:18:41,019 --> 00:18:44,045
but the records section is
closed until 4:00.
248
00:18:46,425 --> 00:18:47,983
What's wrong?
249
00:18:48,727 --> 00:18:53,130
I took a ride out to
Marion Davies' old motor home and now my car's gone.
250
00:18:53,632 --> 00:18:56,829
I just saw it at the garage
across from city hall.
251
00:18:57,302 --> 00:18:58,792
At the garage?
252
00:19:00,906 --> 00:19:02,271
Where's the carburetor?
253
00:19:02,341 --> 00:19:04,969
It's being exchanged
for a rebuilt one.
254
00:19:05,777 --> 00:19:07,369
Put it back in
the way it is.
255

It's on its way
to Santa Barbara.

It'll be ready tomorrow night,
like I told you on the phone.

That was not me
on the phone!

Well, how was I
supposed to know? I never talked to you before.

261
00:19:24,129 --> 00:19:27,121
It's right down that way.
Take a left on Main Street and straight across.
262
00:19:27,199 --> 00:19:28,393
Thanks.
263
00:19:34,940 --> 00:19:36,373
Excuse me.
264
00:19:36,808 --> 00:19:39,868
Yeah, I'd like to see
Proposition 46D.

The hours are
4:00 to 5:00.
266

Yeah, well, this is
kind of a special case.
267
00:19:44,016 --> 00:19:48,510
I was hoping maybe
you could bend the rules, just a touch.

Forget it, sonny.

4:00 to 5:00.

It's only a couple of hours.
You mind if I wait?

What did he want?

(HONKING)
274

Get in the car, son.
Please.
275
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,102
Why? Where are we going?
276
00:20:43,175 --> 00:20:45,439
I'm putting you on the bus
for Santa Barbara.
277
00:20:45,510 --> 00:20:46,943
You can make
your way home from there, right?
278
00:20:47,012 --> 00:20:48,502
What about my car?
279
00:20:48,580 --> 00:20:50,013
Oh, don't worry
about that.
280
00:20:50,082 --> 00:20:52,812
Once we get it fixed,
we'll truck it on down to LA for you.
281
00:20:52,884 --> 00:20:54,511
That's going to cost
a lot of money.
282
00:20:54,586 --> 00:20:57,077
Yeah, well, that's
between you and the tow service, ain't it?
283
00:20:57,155 --> 00:20:58,918
Now get in the car,
please.
284
00:20:58,991 --> 00:21:00,822
You mind telling me
why you're running me out of town?
285
00:21:00,892 --> 00:21:04,885
Well, say it's more
like protective custody.

a simple peace officer, trying to keep the peace.

not to leave town.

any choice.

that coat, I'm going to jam it down your throat.

of Rockford.

the way so you could vote the tie-breaker?

it's worth risking my professional reputation

not telling me how much they're paying you!

arguing for?

be doing here?

Exactly.

I have been
doing some reading on Proposition 46D.

part about the prop

is that the city council is
divided two and two over it.

The deciding vote
is number five. Traynor's.

My vote now.
322

Are you sure about Belding
and the Chroma Corporation?
323
00:24:45,083 --> 00:24:47,813
My news service just ran
a series on who's in power there.

at that proposition.

me know when you start the official countdown?

the proposition?

looking for it.

to tell me what ledger to look in.

00:25:54,486 --> 00:25:55,885
It's right here.
346
00:25:57,355 --> 00:26:01,621
It's the Atlantic City
amendment almost word for word.
347
00:26:01,693 --> 00:26:04,560
The one that made
gambling legal there? And they're doing it here.
348
00:26:04,629 --> 00:26:07,860
That's right.
Only hidden in legalese.
349
00:26:07,933 --> 00:26:13,200
You got to look through
about 16 amendments and 20 books to find it.
350
00:26:14,105 --> 00:26:17,632
Yes, I'm calling
about a patient. John Traynor.
351
00:26:18,877 --> 00:26:20,071
He did?
352
00:26:20,745 --> 00:26:21,734
Thank you.
353
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:26,246
He left the hospital
after his examination, four or five hours ago.
354
00:26:26,318 --> 00:26:28,980
Then he should
have been back here by now.
355
00:26:41,633 --> 00:26:43,828
ROCKFORD: You know,
it all makes sense.
356
00:26:43,902 --> 00:26:47,429
Parma is a natural
for a Vegas-style gambling center.
357
00:26:47,505 --> 00:26:51,635
It's only half the driving
distance from the LA population center.
358
00:26:51,710 --> 00:26:55,840
They could add
some goodies that Vegas and Reno can't offer.
359
00:26:56,047 --> 00:26:58,174
Clean air,
low crime rate.
360
00:26:58,249 --> 00:26:59,739
Trout fishing.
361
00:27:00,919 --> 00:27:02,682
They're gonna have to do
something about the food
362
00:27:02,754 --> 00:27:03,812
before they make it fly,
though.
363
00:27:03,888 --> 00:27:06,516
I mean,
Gersh was right. This food stin...
364
00:27:06,591 --> 00:27:10,118
Hi.
Sorry, miss, seems like we're all out of veal cutlet.
365
00:27:10,629 --> 00:27:14,531
Oh, that's okay.
I wasn't in the mood for a regular meal anyway.
366
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,326
Um...
367
00:27:16,534 --> 00:27:19,469
I'll have
a hot fudge sundae.
368
00:27:19,938 --> 00:27:21,098
With nuts.
369
00:27:21,172 --> 00:27:22,935
Why don't you try
our special chicken dinner?
370
00:27:23,008 --> 00:27:24,737
You get a free wig.
371
00:27:28,279 --> 00:27:29,303
Oh...
372
00:27:29,381 --> 00:27:31,440
Just the sundae, thanks.
373
00:27:34,052 --> 00:27:36,782
So that's it.
Belding was here to put up casinos.
374
00:27:36,855 --> 00:27:38,516
No, I don't think so.
375
00:27:38,590 --> 00:27:42,048
No, Gersh
and the Jersey delegation, they build casinos.
376
00:27:42,127 --> 00:27:44,561
I think Belding is
here to stop that.
377
00:27:44,629 --> 00:27:47,063
You know, protect Chroma's
interests in Vegas.
378
00:27:47,132 --> 00:27:50,499
That's right. They
must have at least five major hotels.
379
00:27:50,735 --> 00:27:53,795
I don't know. The whole thing
is corrupt, start to finish,
380
00:27:53,872 --> 00:27:56,102
and the whole council
is in on it.
381
00:27:56,174 --> 00:27:58,574
Yeah. Yeah, you know,
382
00:27:59,077 --> 00:28:02,308
the gambling part of the
proposition, Rider 337,
383
00:28:02,380 --> 00:28:06,248
has been tacked onto every
bill in front of the council for the last two years.
384
00:28:06,317 --> 00:28:10,651
Nobody could ever get a
proposition together that the council agreed on.
385
00:28:10,855 --> 00:28:13,949
One proposition
provided for widening the white lines
386
00:28:14,025 --> 00:28:16,493
on crosswalks
for school children.
387
00:28:16,561 --> 00:28:19,894
Rider 337 was tacked
on right in the middle.
388
00:28:19,998 --> 00:28:22,091
The council still deadlocked.
389
00:28:22,167 --> 00:28:24,965
There's some
local opposition, it's a pretty hot issue,
390
00:28:25,036 --> 00:28:28,528
but I don't think
half the townspeople know what's going on.
391
00:28:28,606 --> 00:28:29,834
Oh, check this out.
392
00:28:29,908 --> 00:28:33,344
There has been
a procedural change in the way the council works.
393
00:28:33,411 --> 00:28:35,436
The mayor votes
in case of a tie.
394
00:28:35,513 --> 00:28:39,142
Well, that puts him in a
strong position. It means no more deadlocks.
395
00:28:39,217 --> 00:28:43,085
That's exactly what
Traynor created when he disappeared.
396
00:28:43,154 --> 00:28:46,749
Traynor was voting
for the bill. Gersh bought him off.
397
00:28:48,026 --> 00:28:49,288
(ROCKFORD SIGHS)
398
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,524
There's only one reason
I can think of that would explain why he ducked out.
399
00:28:53,932 --> 00:28:56,264
He sold out
to both sides.
400
00:28:56,334 --> 00:29:00,896
Yeah. Maybe that'll explain
why he was headed upstream with a loaded backpack.
401
00:29:00,972 --> 00:29:04,373
He was running out,
planning to set me up as a fall guy all along.
402
00:29:06,177 --> 00:29:08,805
And you took that proxy
for humanitarian reasons.
403
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:10,507
Noble reasons.
404
00:29:11,349 --> 00:29:12,873
Noble's good.
405
00:29:14,352 --> 00:29:16,217
Stupid is how I feel.
406
00:29:19,591 --> 00:29:22,287
ROCKFORD: You know, Carrie,
if Traynor was moving to a hideout,
407
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,191
he had enough supplies
to last him a month.
408
00:29:24,262 --> 00:29:25,354
I mean, I saw him.
409
00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:26,829
He conned me into the proxy,
410
00:29:26,898 --> 00:29:28,991
then he faked
the appendix attack and took off.
411
00:29:29,067 --> 00:29:30,227
But back up
the stream?
412
00:29:30,301 --> 00:29:33,202
Why not? I mean,
this is a guy who makes French pastries
413
00:29:33,271 --> 00:29:35,102
out of acorns
and jack-in-the-pulpits.
414
00:29:35,173 --> 00:29:36,231
I'll bet he's sitting
up there right now,
415
00:29:36,307 --> 00:29:39,003
waiting for the
whole thing to blow over.
416
00:29:40,111 --> 00:29:41,305
Hey, can I borrow
your car?
417
00:29:41,379 --> 00:29:42,437
What? To go
after Traynor?
418
00:29:42,514 --> 00:29:47,008
Yeah, and bring him back.
He was talking about a place called Beaver Fork.
419
00:29:47,085 --> 00:29:51,545
That puts everything back to
start. Puts Traynor in the city council and me in LA.
420
00:29:55,827 --> 00:29:57,021
Uh...
421
00:29:57,896 --> 00:29:59,761
I think they're
a little ahead of me.
422
00:30:30,328 --> 00:30:31,659
Thank you.
423
00:30:38,436 --> 00:30:40,301
Keep these out of sight.
424
00:30:40,371 --> 00:30:42,430
Good likeness,
Mr. Belding.
425
00:30:42,507 --> 00:30:46,238
Chroma is trying to
maintain a low profile. Rockford's back.
426
00:30:48,313 --> 00:30:50,679
Can he use his proxy vote
from jail?
427
00:30:50,748 --> 00:30:53,148
Not if he can't
get to the council meeting.
428
00:30:53,218 --> 00:30:54,446
Then arrest him.
429
00:30:54,519 --> 00:30:57,579
Arrest him and hold him
until the vote's completed.
430
00:30:57,655 --> 00:31:00,021
Arrest him on a
reasonable charge.
431
00:31:00,091 --> 00:31:02,218
Right. Right.
432
00:31:03,027 --> 00:31:04,961
Smart move,
Mr. Belding.
433
00:31:10,301 --> 00:31:12,792
It's just a little joke
I want to play on a friend.
434
00:31:12,871 --> 00:31:17,808
I mean, he is going to fall
apart when he sees me in this jacket and holding that pizza.
435
00:31:17,876 --> 00:31:19,468
Where's the humor?
436
00:31:19,544 --> 00:31:21,978
It'll be funny, Virgil.
Believe me.
437
00:31:23,548 --> 00:31:25,516
You ain't playing no joke
on nobody.
438
00:31:25,583 --> 00:31:28,484
You just want to sneak
out of here without you getting seen.
439
00:31:28,553 --> 00:31:30,885
All right, all right,
you got me.
440
00:31:31,623 --> 00:31:35,719
Just give me the jacket
and I'll leave your truck around the corner.
441
00:31:35,793 --> 00:31:38,785
That's $6.50
for the pizza, without the tip.
442
00:31:45,637 --> 00:31:47,502
Call me, right?
443
00:31:47,572 --> 00:31:48,834
Mmm-hmm.
444
00:34:06,310 --> 00:34:07,436
John?
445
00:34:20,525 --> 00:34:21,617
John?
446
00:34:28,232 --> 00:34:29,358
John?
447
00:34:36,541 --> 00:34:40,375
Traynor's body is up
there in a tent. It's not far from the stream.
448
00:34:40,445 --> 00:34:42,379
Near Beaver Fork?
That's right. That's right.
449
00:34:42,447 --> 00:34:46,474
The trail leads right
down to the road, but it's a killer getting up there.
450
00:34:46,551 --> 00:34:49,418
I'll radio this
to Sheriff Neal. He's out on patrol.
451
00:34:49,487 --> 00:34:51,785
I guess you want me
to wait over at the motel?
452
00:34:51,856 --> 00:34:54,290
I've grown so fond
of the place.
453
00:34:56,794 --> 00:34:59,262
I'm sorry the man is dead,
but I just can't believe this.
454
00:34:59,330 --> 00:35:00,854
An actual hard news story.
455
00:35:00,932 --> 00:35:02,991
I've gotta phone this
in to my LA office.
456
00:35:03,067 --> 00:35:05,433
Yeah, well,
we're all sorry.
457
00:35:05,503 --> 00:35:06,697
But I'll tell you,
458
00:35:06,771 --> 00:35:08,568
if I thought
I could buy a bottle of champagne in this town
459
00:35:08,639 --> 00:35:12,006
that wasn't labeled
Chateau Hatfield, I'd celebrate.
460
00:35:13,444 --> 00:35:16,811
Traynor's death
cancels the proxy. I am out.
461
00:35:17,315 --> 00:35:18,976
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)
462
00:35:30,595 --> 00:35:33,587
I have to ask you
to show us where the body was.
463
00:35:33,664 --> 00:35:36,929
Sheriff Neal's up
where you said and it ain't there.
464
00:35:38,569 --> 00:35:40,867
We took care of Traynor,
Mr. Gersh.
465
00:35:40,938 --> 00:35:42,530
Oh, that's nice.
466
00:35:44,041 --> 00:35:45,440
What did you do
with the body?
467
00:35:45,510 --> 00:35:48,035
We left it in the tent
by the stream.
468
00:35:51,149 --> 00:35:55,017
People say to me, "Why don't
the leaders in your industry retire? Why do they work?"
469
00:35:55,086 --> 00:35:57,919
They work until...
Or maybe...
470
00:35:59,924 --> 00:36:03,257
Every business I ever heard
of had some kind of a management training program.
471
00:36:03,327 --> 00:36:05,261
What do I have?
I got you.
472
00:36:05,329 --> 00:36:07,229
Hey, we didn't know
where to dump him.
473
00:36:07,298 --> 00:36:09,425
The river's
like a couple feet deep.
474
00:36:09,500 --> 00:36:11,092
So they find Traynor's body.
475
00:36:11,202 --> 00:36:14,330
That cancels Rockford's
proxy and the crooked mayor
476
00:36:14,405 --> 00:36:17,067
votes down
the proposition. That's all.
477
00:36:17,141 --> 00:36:19,905
And we go back to
Jersey with cheese on our face.
478
00:36:20,511 --> 00:36:22,809
I'll take care of it,
Mr. Gersh, huh?
479
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:24,780
Like your life
depended on it.
480
00:36:29,420 --> 00:36:30,853
ROCKFORD: Well, now,
you can see right here.
481
00:36:30,922 --> 00:36:33,254
I mean, this is the imprint
of where the tent was,
482
00:36:33,324 --> 00:36:35,519
right there is the shotgun
blast, right there.
483
00:36:35,593 --> 00:36:36,753
Now if you sift
through that,
484
00:36:36,827 --> 00:36:39,318
you're gonna find
some shot pellets.
485
00:36:39,897 --> 00:36:41,364
It's been a campsite,
all right.
486
00:36:41,432 --> 00:36:45,732
Yeah, well, it's all just
like you said it was, except for the body.
487
00:36:45,970 --> 00:36:48,962
We arrived here minutes
after we got the call.
488
00:36:49,240 --> 00:36:52,107
So if anybody tried to
clear anything away,
489
00:36:52,176 --> 00:36:54,041
they can't be
too long gone.
490
00:36:54,111 --> 00:36:55,135
You're right, Sheriff.
491
00:36:55,213 --> 00:36:58,546
Murray, you get the reserves
with the hound dogs and all.
492
00:36:58,616 --> 00:37:00,811
Handle it just like
a lost hiker case.
493
00:37:00,885 --> 00:37:02,750
Me and Chet will
take care of things in town.
494
00:37:02,820 --> 00:37:04,720
And you,
you're under arrest.
495
00:37:04,789 --> 00:37:05,983
On what charge?
496
00:37:06,057 --> 00:37:08,184
Filing a false
police report.
497
00:37:08,392 --> 00:37:09,984
Oh, that charge.
498
00:37:12,597 --> 00:37:16,727
Well, I got Rockford
under lock and key and on a charge that sticks,
499
00:37:17,401 --> 00:37:20,131
at least until
the council votes tomorrow.
500
00:37:21,205 --> 00:37:22,832
I think you did it.
501
00:37:22,907 --> 00:37:25,000
How about
you know I did it?
502
00:37:25,309 --> 00:37:29,302
Course, if Traynor's
body turns up, all bets are off.
503
00:37:29,380 --> 00:37:31,940
How could it?
You've got him.
504
00:37:32,383 --> 00:37:34,010
That's right. I do.
505
00:37:34,085 --> 00:37:37,384
And as long as I do, your
vote counts for something.
506
00:37:37,922 --> 00:37:41,585
I'd say that makes
my part in this worth a little more than 5,000.
507
00:37:41,659 --> 00:37:43,854
Well, I don't
know about that.
508
00:37:44,895 --> 00:37:46,954
How much is
Belding paying you for the vote?
509
00:37:47,031 --> 00:37:50,592
That has nothing to do
with our arrangement. It's my vote.
510
00:37:50,935 --> 00:37:52,197
