HEY, BRIAN!

HEY, BRIAN!

COME ON!

WHAT ARE YOU PACKING IN HERE?

THIS THING WEIGHS A TON.

GIVE IT BACK, McFARLANE.

I FORGOT TO DO MY HOMEWORK LAST NIGHT.

DO YOU MIND IF I...

GIVE IT BACK!

WOULD YOU LIKE THE BAG?

COME ON, BRIAN.

COME ON.

GO GET IT!

COME ON!

Crowd: ALL RIGHT, IT'S A FIGHT!

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT!

JEEZ, YOU LITTLE DWEEB.

NEXT TIME--

DON'T GET SO WORKED UP, SHEFFIELD.

WE'RE JUST PLAYING WITH YOU, MAN.

HOW DID YOU EVER MAKE IT TO THE NINTH GRADE, ANYWAY?

WAY TO GO, BOY.

HOMEROOM IN FIVE, SHEFFIELD.

I GOT THE CLOCK ON YOU.

HEY!

NO, NO!

HELP!

HELP!

HELP, HELP!

THAT GUY JUMPED BRIAN!

HELP! HELP!

NO!

HEY!

YOU GUYS REMEMBER SPENCER PHILLIPS.

F.B.I., RIGHT?

I NEVER FORGET A HAIRCUT.

A KID WAS GRABBED FROM LAFAYETTE HIGH TODAY--

BRIAN SHEFFIELD.

POSSIBLY A KIDNAPPING

ALTHOUGH PARENTAL ABDUCTION

IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION.

HIS PARENTS ARE DIVORCED

AND THERE'S A HISTORY OF CUSTODY VIOLATIONS.

WE WANT TO ESTABLISH THE EXTENT AND NATURE OF THE CRIME

BEFORE THE BUREAU GETS INVOLVED.

SO YOU JUST WANT US TO KEEP THIS WARM FOR YOU.

YOU HAVE A PROBLEM

WITH MY HANDLING OF THIS SITUATION?

WE DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS HERE.

Phillips: GOOD.

THESE THINGS USUALLY CLEAR THEMSELVES UP IN 24 HOURS.

CAPTAIN.

I HATE THESE EMOTIONAL TYPES.

ATTITUDE ASIDE, PHILLIPS MIGHT BE RIGHT.

PARENTS DON'T GET WHAT THEY WANT IN COURT

THEY TAKE IT TO THE STREET.

LET'S HOPE THAT'S ALL IT IS.

Hanson: HAS BRIAN EVER RUN AWAY BEFORE?

OF COURSE NOT.

THIS IS HIS HOME.

HE HAS EVERYTHING HE NEEDS.

SURE, HIS FATHER'S A LOT OF LAUGHS

AND I'M THE DISCIPLINARIAN.

WHY DO YOU THINK YOUR HUSBAND HAS ABDUCTED YOUR SON?

HE'S TRIED IT BEFORE, AND I'VE CAUGHT HIM.

BIG DEAL!

I TAKE MY SON TO DALLAS ON A BUSINESS TRIP

AND SHE HIRES A PRIVATE DETECTIVE.

UNDER YOUR CUSTODY, MR. SHEFFIELD

TAKING BRIAN ACROSS STATE LINE

VIOLATES THE LAW.

HE'S MY SON!

YOU MAKE IT SOUND LIKE I'M A CRIMINAL.

I DIDN'T SAY THAT!

...I DID!

OKAY, MAYBE IT WASN'T BLUE

BUT IT WAS DARK.

WE'RE TALKING A DARK '72 LINCOLN SOMETHING.

SEVENTY-SEVEN.

THE GUY WAS 72.

HE WASN'T THAT OLD.

HE MOVED TOO FAST.

AND HE WAS WEARING A CLOWN MASK.

A CLOWN MASK.

...JUST LIKE THAT SNEAK.

LET'S SEE HOW HE LIKES VISITING BRIAN

FROM BEHIND BARS.

WE CAN'T ARREST YOUR HUSBAND JUST OFF THESE PHOTOGRAPHS.

THEY'RE PHOTOGRAPHS OF HIM AND MY SON IN DALLAS.

OBVIOUSLY, HE'S BEEN PLANNING THIS FOR MONTHS!

I'VE HARDLY SEEN HIM IN MONTHS.

THOSE PICTURES WERE FROM A BIRTHDAY PARTY.

I DON'T EVEN HAVE A SAY IN HOW HE'S RAISED.

LET HIM MAKE SOME MISTAKES, HAVE SOME FUN.

...TOTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE.

HE LETS BRIAN DRIVE THE CAR.

HAS BRIAN SEEMED ANXIOUS LATELY?

VERY.

NOT AT ALL.

KINDA.

WHAT WAS BRIAN "KINDA" DOING

BEFORE IT HAPPENED?

WE WERE KNOCKING HIM AROUND A LITTLE--

TEASING HIM, YOU KNOW?

IT WAS NO BIG DEAL.

IT'S MY FAULT SOME PERV GRABBED HIM?

I SHOULDN'T BE SURPRISED HE'D STOOP THIS LOW.

HE GETS A LITTLE LUCKY IN BUSINESS

AND HE'S INVINCIBLE.

HE WANTS THE HOUSE.

HE WANTS BRIAN!

SHE WANTS EVERYTHING.

WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A PROPERTY SETTLEMENT.

THERE'S NOTHING SHE WOULDN'T DO.

SHE WON'T EVEN LET ME PICK UP MY STUFF.

WHAT KIND OF STUFF?

YOU KNOW, STUFF--

TAPES, A COUPLE PAIRS OF JEANS--

RIGHT THERE IN HIS KNAPSACK!

EVEN HIS TOOTHBRUSH IS MISSING.

ALL RIGHT, MRS. SHEFFIELD, I GUESS THAT DOES IT.

WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.

IF YOU THINK OF ANYTHING

CONTACT ME THROUGH THE PRINCIPAL.

YOU MUST GET HIM BACK.

HIS FATHER IS BAD FOR HIM.

HE HATES HIS FATHER!

IT'S HIS MOTHER HE HATES!

YOU CAN ASK HIM THAT YOURSELF.

NO, WE... CAN'T.

HE'S MISSING.

GUYS?

MOM!

HI, SWEETIE PIE!

I MUST HAVE LOST A WEEK SOMEWHERE.

I THOUGHT IT WAS NEXT WEEK YOU GUYS WERE COMING.

IS DADDY LYING DOWN?

HE COULDN'T MAKE IT.

YOU'RE KIDDING.

HE'S DISAPPOINTED TOO, BUT IF WE'RE NOT CAREFUL

WE'RE LIABLE TO HAVE MORE FUN WITHOUT HIM.

YOU HAVEN'T EATEN, HAVE YOU?

NO.

GOOD.

I WANT TO TAKE YOU OUT TO DINNER.

I FINALLY GOT MY OWN CARD.

THEY TRIED TO GIVE ME

YOUR FATHER'S LINE OF CREDIT

BUT I WANTED MY OWN.

FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS.

IT'S PSYCHOLOGICAL, I'M SURE

BUT EVERY MEAL I BUY WITH THIS

JUST SEEMS TO TASTE BETTER.

JUST GIVE ME ONE SEC, OKAY?

I'VE WANTED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THAT.

IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WOMEN

ESTABLISH THEIR OWN LINE OF CREDIT.

EXACTLY.

IT'S NOTHING AGAINST DADDY

IT'S JUST THE RESPONSIBLE THING.

A LOT OF IT'S MY OWN FAULT.

I LET THINGS GET OUT OF HAND.

I WAS SUFFOCATING

IN THE SHADOWS OF DR. ANTHONY HOFFS.

SUFFOCATING?

THE SLIGHTEST DEVIATION

AND YOUR FATHER CAN'T ACCEPT IT.

THE MAN'S INTOLERANT... JUDGMENTAL...

IS EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT WITH YOU AND DAD?

YOU KNOW YOUR FATHER AND I WOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING

WITHOUT GIVING IT A LOT OF THOUGHT.

SO THERE'S NO REASON FOR YOU TO BE UPSET.

WE'VE DECIDED TO SEPARATE.

Penhall: A DARK BLUE, POSSIBLY BROWN LINCOLN

BUILT SOMETIME IN THE '70s

DRIVEN BY SOMEBODY FROM THIS PLANET.

HOW LONG HAS SHEFFIELD HAD HIS DALLAS APARTMENT?

A COUPLE OF MONTHS.

DALLAS POLICE TOOK A LOOK--

NO BRIAN, BUT LOTS OF HIS CLOTHES.

CAPTAIN, IT'S FOR YOU.

YEAH, FULLER.

GIVE ME 15 MINUTES.

I'LL MEET YOU AT THE HOUSE.

SCHOOL JANITOR JUST TURNED UP A RANSOM TAPE.

Brian's voice: They won't let me sleep.

I stand for hours

with almost nothing to eat.

You have to get $75,000...

THEY MUST HAVE GRABBED THE WRONG KID.

WOULD YOU SHUT UP?

...delivery instructions.

Do not involve the police, or they'll kill me!

YOU WORK HARD AND PAY OUTRAGEOUS TAXES

SO HE CAN GO TO A DECENT SCHOOL WHERE HE'S GRABBED

BY SOME NUT?

ALL RIGHT.

ALL RIGHT.

ALL RIGHT.

SEVENTY-FIVE GRAND...

WHERE WILL WE GET THE MONEY?

WE'LL HAVE TO MORTGAGE THE HOUSE, DEAR.

MY HOUSE?

WHO WILL MAKE THE PAYMENTS?

YOU'RE SUPPOSEDLY BROKE!

YOU GOT A BETTER IDEA?

I KNOW THAT YOU TWO ARE UPSET ABOUT YOUR SON...

BUT WE'LL HANDLE THE MONEY END OF THIS.

ALL RIGHT.

WE'LL LET THE MAN DO HIS JOB.

OKAY?

I THINK WE'D MAKE A BIG MISTAKE

MEETING ANY DEMANDS

UNTIL WE'RE SURE BRIAN'S OKAY.

THAT'S NOT YOUR DECISION.

YOUR SON HAS A BETTER CHANCE

IF WE BUY SOME TIME TO LOCATE HIM.

BUT THE TAPE SAID NO POLICE.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

FIGHT THIS THING ALONE?

Fuller: WHAT DO YOU THINK?

SOMEONE GRABBED A KID FROM A NICE NEIGHBORHOOD.

AND YOU?

I WANT TO KNOW MORE FIRST.

I'LL TRACE THIS TAPE'S LOT NUMBER--

FIND OUT WHEN AND WHERE IT WAS BOUGHT.

THAT WON'T BE NECESSARY.

YOU CAN TURN THE FILE OVER TOMORROW.

IF A KID IS GRABBED FROM ONE OF MY SCHOOLS

IT'S MY BUSINESS TO FIND HIM.

LEGALLY, AFTER 24 HOURS

TRANSPORTATION ACROSS STATE LINES CAN BE ASSUMED.

THEN IT'S MY BUSINESS.

TWENTY-FOUR HOURS AGO

THIS WAS GOING TO CLEAR ITSELF UP.

EVENING.

HOW LONG YOU PLAN ON STAYING?

COUPLE OF DAYS.

DEPENDS ON THE FISHING.

CAN I SEE YOUR FISHING PERMIT

AND DRIVER'S LICENSE?

CERTAINLY.

HERE YOU ARE.

LOT OF EQUIPMENT

FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS.

YOU SHOULD SEE

WHAT'S IN THE TRUNK.

WHERE'S YOUR PLATE?

OH, I HAVE IT HERE... SOMEWHERE.

HERE IT IS.

KEEPS FALLING OFF.

I'LL WIRE IT ON WITH A COAT HANGER

FIRST CHANCE I GET.

SEVEN DOLLARS A DAY--

PAY WHEN YOU LEAVE.

YOU'RE IN SPACE G.

COME ON, GET OUT.

LET ME GET A GOOD LOOK AT YOU.

WE DID IT, GRANDPA!

WE SURE DID.

NOW, LET'S DROP A LINE IN THE WATER.

THE SUN IS FALLING

AND I'M GETTING VERY HUNGRY.

THEY WILL KILL ME.

I SWEAR THEY WILL.

IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY

YOU'LL NEVER SEE ME ALIVE AGAIN.

YOU DON'T THINK YOU SOUND TOO FRIGHTENED?

GRANDPA, I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED.

HEAVY-HANDED STUFF WORKS.

THIS IS NO TIME TO WEEN OUT.

EDISON COULTER DOES NOT WEEN OUT.

WE'RE GOING TO BE FINE HERE.

AND ONCE WE GET SETTLED UP THERE

WE CAN EAT DINNER UNDER THE STARS EVERY NIGHT.

YOU SEE THESE FIRS?

WE HAVE THOSE ALL OVER OUR PROPERTY.

SEE RIGHT THERE, THAT CLEARING?

THAT'S WHERE THE DOCK AND BOAT LANDING WILL GO.

RIGHT BEHIND IT IS WHERE YOU AND I

WILL BUILD THAT TACKLE AND BAIT SHOP.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?

WELL, WORKING AFTER SCHOOL AND ON WEEKENDS

WE OUGHT TO BE IN BUSINESS BY THIS TIME NEXT YEAR.

NEXT YEAR-- FORGET IT!

WE'RE HIRING HELP.

WITH WHAT?

WE'RE BUDGETED TO THE PENNY.

SO, UP THE RANSOM.

NO, WE FIGURED EXACTLY WHAT WE NEEDED.

NO MORE, NO LESS.

GET GREEDY ON ME

AND I'LL HAVE TO WHAP YOU.

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

WE DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS, YOU KNOW.

WE CAN STOP WHENEVER YOU WANT.

I DON'T WANT TO STOP.

I'M IN THEIR WAY.

I WON'T LIVE

WITH PEOPLE THAT HATE ME.

BRIAN, YOU'RE WRONG.

THEY DON'T HATE YOU.

THEY HATE THEMSELVES.

( beep )

Hi. Guess who?

It's Robert.

I hope you're having a nice visit with your daughter.

I miss the sound of your voice.

I'll talk to you soon. Bye.

WHO'S ROBERT?

A FRIEND.

MY FRIENDS DON'T MISS THE SOUND OF MY VOICE

AFTER JUST A FEW DAYS.

HE'S SOMEONE I MET AT THE BOOKSTORE.

WHEN?

DELORES HOFFS DON'T WALK AWAY WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU.

I ASKED WHEN-- BEFORE OR AFTER THIS DECISION?

DON'T YOU HAVE ANY MALE FRIENDS?

IF HE'S A FRIEND, WHY DID DADDY LEAVE?

BECAUSE 26 YEARS INTO A PERFECTLY GOOD MARRIAGE

YOUR FATHER SUDDENLY DECIDES HE DOESN'T TRUST ME ANYMORE.

ARE YOU SLEEPING WITH THIS MAN?

Brian's voice: JUST ACROSS THE FOOTBRIDGE YOU'LL SEE A STATUE.

YOU'RE TO BE STANDING AT THE BASE OF THIS STATUE

AT EXACTLY 6:00 P.M.

MY PARENTS ARE NOT TO MAKE THIS DROP THEMSELVES.

Ioki: HELLO?

HELLO?

IOKI'S IN PLACE.

YOU READY WITH THAT?

YEAH.

PICK UP THE WALKIE-TALKIE

at the base of the statue.

ALL RIGHT, WE'RE UP.

GO AROUND TO THE LEFT

AND KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN.

LOOK BEHIND THE STATUE.

See that life preserver?

Put it on.

And I mean on.

ZIP IT UP TIGHT.

NOW HEAD TOWARDS THE WATERFALL.

SO WHAT'D YOUR PARENTS DO?

DID THEY PAY 75 GRAND TO GET DOUG BACK?

DOUG WHO?

JUST TO THE RIGHT OF THE WATERFALL

is a small pine.

You see it?

Put the money on the ground

and cover it with the needles from that pine tree.

All right, now set the walkie-talkie down.

Turn around.

Now very carefully

feel the lining of that life preserver.

YOU'RE FEELING ENOUGH EXPLOSIVES

to blow you into the next county.

Understand?

CALL THE BOMB SQUAD!

IOKI'S IN TROUBLE, COME ON.

ALL RIGHT, NOW SLOWLY...

very slowly walk back to the statue.

And don't, repeat don't, turn around.

Doug: IOKI!

I'M A POLICE OFFICER, YOU'LL HAVE TO LEAVE RIGHT AWAY.

CLEAR THE WHOLE PARK.

JUST STAND REAL STILL, DON'T...

BRIAN.

BRIAN!

JUST DO EXACTLY WHAT THEY SAY.

TAKE IT REAL EASY

AND MOVE REAL SLOW.

IOKI, BOMB SQUAD'S ON ITS WAY.

STAY REAL STILL.

SIX HUNDRED BUCKS!

THEY NEED MORE TIME.

WHAT'S THE MATTER

HE COULDN'T SELL HIS GOLF CLUBS?

SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS WILL STILL GO A LONG WAY.

GRANDPA

WE'VE BEEN JACKED.

SOME BOMB.

FOUR ROAD FLARES AND SOME TELEPHONE WIRE.

YOU GET A FEELING

THERE'S SOMETHING AMATEURISH ABOUT THIS?

WE'VE GOT SOMETHING ON THOSE RANSOM TAPES.

THEY TRACED BACK TO A MICHIGAN DRUGSTORE.

MRS. SHEFFIELD'S FATHER

RENTS A CABIN THERE EVERY SUMMER.

THE BOY'S GRANDFATHER?

THAT'S RIGHT.

SORRY, MOM, BUT THINGS ARE CRAZY TODAY.

IT'S OKAY, I LIKE IT.

I LIKE WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

( phone rings )

HOFFS.

GREAT, PUT HIM THROUGH.

DAD.

WHAT A SURPRISE.

WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO WASTE ON LONG SHOTS.

TIME MY UNIT BOUGHT.

HOFFS!

DAD, HOLD ON.

I'VE GOT TO GO.

TAKE DOWN HIS FLIGHT INFORMATION.

GO AHEAD, ANTHONY.

IF YOU CAN TRUST ME TO GET IT RIGHT.

WHEN'S THE LAST TIME

MRS. SHEFFIELD TALKED TO HER FATHER?

A YEAR AGO.

THEY HAD A FALLING OUT WHEN SHE WOULDN'T

LET BRIAN GO TO HIS GRANDMOTHER'S FUNERAL.

GET ME THE WORKS ON HER FATHER.

OKAY.

I HAVEN'T GIVEN

THE GO-AHEAD.

I DIDN'T ASK.

BRIAN HASN'T CROSSED ANY STATE LINES YET.

ALL YOU'VE GOT FOR 36 HOURS WORK IS A WALKIE-TALKIE

WITH YOUR UNIT'S

PRINTS ON IT.

TAKE THAT WALKIE-TALKIE AND...

JUDITH HOFFS, HOW DARE YOU?

EVERYONE, I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET MY MOM.

MA'AM.

HELLO. HEY.

NICE TO MEET YOU.

YOU'VE RAISED A FINE YOUNG LADY.

OH, THANK YOU.

OH, EXCUSE ME, OFFICER.

WHO, ME?

I'M A MAINTENANCE ENGINEER.

WHY DON'T YOU TAKE THAT WALKIE-TALKIE

AND HAVE YOUR LAB DUST THE BATTERIES.

MY MONEY SAYS THE PRINTS WILL MATCH THE GRANDFATHER'S.

Brian: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL DAY?

I THOUGHT THEY NAILED YOU FOR SURE.

DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH.

WE NEED A GAME PLAN

BEFORE THIS THING UNRAVELS ANY MORE.

ALL THIS STUFF'S ABOUT OTHER KIDNAPPINGS.

WHEN YOU'VE GOT A PROBLEM, YOU TURN TO THE EXPERTS.

I THOUGHT YOU'D GET

A KICK OUT OF THIS.

"BRIAN EDISON SHEFFIELD--

"BORN TO MR. AND MRS. JOHN SHEFFIELD

"OF HUNTINGTON PARK.

EIGHT POUNDS, SIX OUNCES..."

YOU DIDN'T START SMALL.

WHAT WERE THEY LIKE BACK THEN?

LIKE ANTS IN THE PANTS, SON.

WORSE CASE OF YOUTH I EVER SAW--

SELFISH, SELF-CENTERED.

EVEN TRIED TO ELOPE ONCE.

WOULD HAVE MADE IT, TOO, EXCEPT YOUR IDIOT FATHER

FORGOT TO BRING A LADDER.

THAT NIGHT, WE ALL SAT DOWN IN THE KITCHEN OVER COCOA

AND PLANNED US A WEDDING.

WE DOING ALL RIGHT HERE?

YEAH, WE'RE DOING FINE.

SO, CAN WE USE ANY OF THIS STUFF?

"ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL CRIMES IN THE HISTORY OF..."

WHAT?

THE GETTY KIDNAPPING.

PAID ALMOST TWO AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS

FOR THE RETURN OF HIS GRANDSON.

LET'S DO WHAT THEY DID.

THEY LOPPED OFF HIS EAR.

LET'S FIND SOMETHING ELSE.

RELAX, I LIKE YOUR EAR WHERE IT IS.

BUT, YOU KNOW, I THINK I FOUND A WAY

OF LETTING THEM KNOW

HOW SERIOUS WE ARE ABOUT THIS.

THE $600 WE GAVE THEM

A NOTE SAYING IT'S NOT ENOUGH

AND BOZO'S EAR?

I TOLD YOU YOUR FATHER WAS NUTS.

SINCE HER MOTHER DIED

HE'S BEEN OUT OF CONTROL.

DAD WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING TO HURT HIM.

HE'S IN CONTROL ENOUGH TO STEAL FROM THE BEST.

THE INSTRUCTIONS, THE EAR--

RIGHT OUT OF THE GETTY KIDNAPPING.

CAN'T WE STOP HIM?

ARE YOU UP TO FOLLOWING

THESE INSTRUCTIONS?

HE WANTS YOU TO DELIVER THE RANSOM THIS TIME.

I'M NOT HAVING HER DRIVE BACK ROADS

TOSSING MONEY OUT WINDOWS.

WE MAY NOT HAVE TO.

HOW GOOD IS YOUR FATHER'S EYESIGHT?

THEY DON'T PAY ME ENOUGH FOR THIS.

YEAH, PANTY HOSE ARE SO EXPENSIVE.

KEEP YOUR HEADS DOWN.

SOMEONE'S COMING UP BEHIND US.

I'M DOING THIRTY AND HE'S STILL NOT PASSING.

THERE'S THE LIGHTS.

GRANDPA AT 6:00.

THIS IS FULLER.

GIVE THEM HALF A MILE

then close it up.

GET READY, GUYS.

Penhall: LET'S GO, HARRY!

COME OUT OF THE CAR, GRANDPA.

COME ON OUT.

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

PUT THOSE THINGS DOWN BEFORE YOU HURT SOMEONE.

SPREAD THEM.

ALL RIGHT, ALREADY.

WOULD YOU MIND IF I SAT DOWN, HUH?

ARE YOU FINISHED?

YEAH.

YOU OKAY?

YEAH, I'M FINE.

WELL, AT LEAST

I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO TELL WASHINGTON.

YOU THINK YOU CAN HANDLE A CONVICTION

OR YOU WANT TO TURN BOZO'S EAR OVER TO ME?

IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE, PHILLIPS.

YEAH, THEY COULD HAVE SENT HIS NOSE.

SEE YOU.

Coulter: MY FRIEND'S HOLDING ME ON HIS SHOULDERS.

I'M HANGING WAY OUT OVER WAVELAND AVENUE

OUTSIDE OF WRIGLEY FIELD.

BASES ARE LOADED AND UPCOMING

IS BIG BILL NICHOLSON TO THE PLATE.

WHAT A HITTER.

THEY CALLED HIM

"SWISH."

ANYWAY, LEO DUROCHER IS MANAGING

THE DODGERS.

LEO THE LIP.

RIGHT, LEO THE LIP.

THE LIP

LIVES IN MORTAL FEAR OF NICHOLSON.

SO, GET THE PICTURE--

TOP OF THE NINTH

3 TO 2 DODGERS, BASES LOADED.

DUROCHER ORDERS THE PITCHER TO WALK IN THE TYING RUN

BECAUSE HE'S AFRAID TO PITCH TO THE "SWISH."

TRUE STORY, I WAS THERE.

THAT STILL DOESN'T EXCUSE WHAT YOU'VE DONE.

KIDNAPPING IS A SERIOUS OFFENSE.

MR. COULTER, YOU'D MAKE THINGS EASIER ON YOURSELF

IF YOU GIVE UP THE BOY.

NOT UNTIL I HAVE MY SAY IN COURT.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THESE ARE FELONY CHARGES

BEING BROUGHT AGAINST YOU?

ALL RIGHT, I BROKE THE LAW.

I DESECRATED A CLOWN MASK.

WHAT DO I GET FOR THAT-- THREE TO FIVE?

THIS ISN'T A JOKE.

YOU'RE TELLING ME, SON?

ALL RIGHT, I MAY BE FACING LIFE.

BUT IF I DIDN'T DO SOMETHING

MY GRANDSON WOULD BE FACING LIFE

WITH TWO PEOPLE WHO DON'T CARE A THING ABOUT HIM.

AND TO ME, THAT'S WORTH IT.

PLEASE...

TELL US WHERE HE IS.

I TOLD YOU, HE'S FINE.

WHAT HE IS, IS ALONE

AND PROBABLY SCARED HALF TO DEATH.

HEY, WHO ARE YOU GUYS?

LET ME OUT OF HERE.

GOT ANYTHING TO EAT?

WE'LL GET YOU SOMETHING DOWNTOWN.

IS MY GRANDFATHER ALL RIGHT?

YEAH, HE'S FINE.

IS HE GOING TO JAIL?

BUT WE PLANNED IT TOGETHER.

I'M SORRY, BRIAN

MINORS CAN'T GIVE LEGAL CONSENT.

AM I GOING TO JAIL?

NO, YOU'RE GOING HOME

BECAUSE WE SAVED YOUR LIFE.

NO MORE STAR-FILLED NIGHTS.

NO MORE RAINBOW TROUT OVER OPEN FLAMES.

THE NIGHTMARE'S OVER, BRIAN.

COME ON, YOU GUYS.

DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?

MY GRANDFATHER AND I NEED EACH OTHER.

WE'RE THE ONLY FAMILY WE'VE GOT AND YOU'RE RUINING IT.

DON'T MAKE ME GO BACK TO MY PARENTS.

YOUR PARENTS DESERVE TO KNOW YOU'RE OKAY.

I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY KNOW.

AND I'M NOT GOING BACK TO THEM EITHER.

IF GRANDPA'S DOING TIME, I'M DOING TIME.

LOOK, BEAV, EASE UP, WILL YOU?

WE'RE JUST DOING OUR JOBS.

DO YOUR JOB, STICK ME IN A HOME

WHERE I'M NOT WANTED AND DON'T BELONG.

AND DON'T SHOOT ME IN THE BACK EITHER.

I'M NOT ARMED.

I'M NOT EVEN TALL.

BRIAN.

WELL, I FEEL LIKE HELL. HOW ABOUT YOU?

I DON'T GET PAID TO FEEL LIKE HELL, IT JUST WORKS OUT THAT WAY.

Hoffs: DADDY, YOU'RE NOT LISTENING.

YOU APPROVE OF YOUR MOTHER'S BOYFRIEND?

HE'S JUST A FRIEND.

HE'S A BOY. HE'S A FRIEND.

YES, I KNOW HOW THAT GOES.

YOU SPEND A LOT OF LATE HOURS WITH YOUR FRIEND.

WE GO TO THE THEATER

HAVE A DRINK AFTER AND TALK

ABOUT THE PLAY.

THERE ISN'T A PLAY THAT CAN'T BE THRASHED

AND ANALYZED BY MIDNIGHT.

AREN'T YOU GUYS BEING UNREASONABLE?

Both: UNREASONABLE?

YOUR CREDIT CARD BILL.

THURSDAY THE 18th, A CHARGE FOR $135

AT THE PALMER HOUSE HOTEL?

THE COST OF A SUITE?

IS THAT REASONABLE ENOUGH FOR YOU?

( car honking )

IT'S HIM OR ME.

YOU CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS.

MEANING I HAVE TO HAVE IT YOUR WAY.

CALL ME OLD-FASHIONED

BUT I STILL BELIEVE IN FIDELITY.

TONY...

THOSE CHARGES WERE FOR LUNCH

AT THE RESTAURANT.

THERE WERE FOUR OF US.

I DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH CASH, SO WE PUT IT ON MY CARD.

YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE THAT?

BELIEVE WHATEVER YOU WANT

BUT IT FELT GREAT.

WILL YOU GUYS GROW UP?

Dolores/Tony: THAT IS NOT THE POINT.

WHAT IS?

IF YOUR FATHER DISTRUSTS ME AFTER 26 YEARS

THIS MARRIAGE ISN'T WORTH SAVING.

GO MARRY THAT NEW BEST FRIEND OF YOURS?

I THOUGHT YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND.

NOTHING HAPPENED.

THEN WHAT'S WITH THE AEROBICS

AND GOING TO PLAYS

AND YOUR CREDIT CARD?

TONY, I HAVE TO HAVE SOMETHING THAT IS MINE.

THERE'S OURS

THERE'S YOURS

BUT THERE'S NO MINE.

I DON'T NEED ULTIMATUMS.

WHAT I NEED IS ROOM.

YOU THINK THAT CARD OF YOURS

CAN HANDLE DINNER FOR THREE TONIGHT?

Tony: COME ON.

EXCUSE ME.

EXCUSE US.

MR. BRABECK, WE'RE THE ARRESTING OFFICERS.

NOT TO WORRY.

CONVICTION'S IN THE BAG.

YOU SOUND SURE OF YOURSELF.

I KNOW JUDGE SIMON.

WE GIVE HER A CLEAN FELONY BUST

SHE GIVES US A CONVICTION.

THERE'S SOME EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES HERE.

RELAX, WILL YOU?

SIMON'S THE ORIGINAL HANGING JUDGE.

SHE'D SEND GEORGE BURNS AWAY

FOR SMOKING IN AN ELEVATOR.

EXCUSE ME.

EXCUSE ME.

SORRY.

EXCUSE ME.

Bailiff: ALL RISE.

THE HONORABLE JAMES DESMOND PRESIDING.

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT, SIT DOWN, SIT DOWN.

WE ALL KNOW THE ROUTINE.

JUDGE SIMON IS HAVING ROOT CANAL THIS MORNING

AND...

I'LL BE SITTING IN HER PLACE.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S GET THIS THING STARTED, OKAY?

I OBJECT.

MR. COULTER, YOU CAN'T OBJECT.

THE TRIAL HASN'T STARTED YET.

I DON'T CARE IF IT'S LUNCH TIME.

I MUST TALK TO HIM.

IT'S IMPORTANT.

I OBJECT!

MR. COULTER HAS THE RIGHT TO REFUSE COUNSEL

BUT NOT TO BADGER MR. SHEFFIELD

WITH IRRELEVANT QUESTIONS.

MR. COULTER, IF YOU HAVE A POINT

MAKE IT BEFORE BRABECK HAS A STROKE.

WE DOING ALL RIGHT HERE, JACK?

FINE, DAD, JUST FINE.

JACK, DO YOU MIND TELLING THESE PEOPLE

WHY YOU WOULDN'T LET YOUR SON ATTEND

HIS GRANDMOTHER'S FUNERAL?

BECAUSE THAT PARTICULAR WEEKEND WAS MY WEEKEND.

YOUR WEEKEND?

I GET BRIAN TWICE A MONTH

AND I HAD TICKETS TO A BALL GAME.

AHH, TOO BAD SHE DIDN'T DIE

DURING A ROAD TRIP.

Brabeck: I OBJECT.

DON'T BOTHER.

I'M DONE WITH THIS GUY ANYWAY, JUDGE.

Brabeck: AFTER CAPTAIN FULLER INFORMED YOU

THAT THE ABDUCTOR WAS YOUR OWN FATHER

DID YOU FEEL A SENSE OF RELIEF?

I FELT BETTER

YES.

BUT NOT RELIEVED?

NO, I WAS STILL WORRIED.

THAT'S ALL, YOUR HONOR.

( whistling )

Coulter: HOLD IT.

WHERE'S SHE GOING?

I GOT A COUPLE

OF QUESTIONS YOUR HONOR.

HI, KITTEN.

HI, DAD.

WE DOING ALL RIGHT HERE?

YEAH.

I SPOKE TO THE LADY

AT THE STATE CUSTODY OFFICE YESTERDAY.

SHE TOLD ME JACK REQUESTED

A THIRD WEEKEND OF VISITATIONS.

YOU TURNED HIM DOWN.

WHY?

BECAUSE HE'S TAKING HIM TO THESE POWER CLINICS.

BRAINWASHING IS WHAT IT IS.

I'M TRYING TO GET HIM OUT OF HIMSELF.

YOU'VE GOT HIM BURIED IN BOOKS.

YOU'RE OUT OF ORDER.

DID YOU EVER THINK

HE MIGHT WANT TO GO TO THOSE CLINICS?

YEAH.

DID YOU EVER THINK HE MIGHT NOT WANT TO?

YEAH.

HE NEVER TOLD ME HE DIDN'T WANT TO GO.

HE NEVER SAID THAT.

I DON'T CARE WHAT HE WANTS.

THAT MAN ISN'T TAKING MY SON

TO THOSE MEETINGS.

NO FURTHER QUESTIONS, YOUR HONOR.

YOUR HONOR, THAT IS MY GRANDSON

AND I DO CARE WHAT HE WANTS.

HE'S NOT A JAVELIN FOR THESE TWO

TO THROW BACK AND FORTH.

SO, PARDON ME FOR STEALING HIM

BUT THAT'S THE WAY I FEEL.

YOU GOT A ROLAID, YOUR HONOR?

I DIDN'T HAVE ANY BREAKFAST.

YOUR HONOR, MR. AND MRS. SHEFFIELD

ARE BRIAN'S BIOLOGICAL PARENTS.

YET WE'RE SUBJECTING THEM TO CROSS-EXAMINATION

WHEN HE'S THE ONE THAT COMMITTED THE CRIME.

COUNSELOR, THIS IS A HEARING.

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING-- WE'RE HEARING.

THANK YOU.

IF THERE'S ANYTHING YOU'D LIKE US TO HEAR

THIS WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT TIME.

YES, YOUR HONOR, THERE IS.

THE RANSOM TAPES.

THEY'RE BEING TRANSPORTED

BY A BONDED JUSTICE COURIER FROM JUMP STREET.

IF YOU WILL ALLOW THEM INTO SUBMISSION

I BELIEVE I CAN GET THIS HEARING BACK ON TRACK.

GOOD. IS THAT EVIDENCE HERE?

YO, SOMEBODY WAITING FOR THIS?

YOU ARE...?

SAL BANDUCCI, YOUR HONOR.

YOU HAVE THE EVIDENCE, MR. BANDUCCI?

IT'S ALL HERE.

I DOUBLE CHECKED ON THE WAY.

I GOT TO TELL YOU

THIS IS PRETTY FUNNY.

LOOK WHAT I BROUGHT.

( courtroom laughter)

ARE YOU A BONDED JUSTICE COURIER, MR. BANDUCCI?

NO, I'M A MAINTENANCE ENGINEER.

COUNSELOR, YOU REALIZE

I HAVE TO RULE THIS EVIDENCE INADMISSIBLE.

YOUR HONOR, PLEASE...

THIS MAN IS A JANITOR.

I OBJECT... TO THE TERM "JANITOR."

YOU CAN'T OBJECT.

SIT DOWN.

APPROACH, YOUR HONOR?

APPROACH.

I THINK I CAN BRING A JUDGMENT AGAINST HIM

EVEN WITHOUT THE EVIDENCE.

I DOUBT THAT, SON.

YOU WEREN'T DOING A VERY GOOD JOB OUT THERE

AND...

UNLESS YOU'RE HELL-BENT ON PUTTING THIS GENTLEMAN AWAY

THIS BRINGS US BACK TO A MISDEMEANOR.

HMM?

NOW, STEP BACK.

ALL RIGHT, NOW.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT WE'VE GOT HERE

AND IT ISN'T FELONY.

WE'VE GOT A MESS.

WILL THE FAMILY APPROACH THE BENCH?

I FIND THE DEFENDANT, EDISON COULTER, GUILTY

OF ILLEGAL RESTRAINT--

A MISDEMEANOR.

ON THE CHARGE OF ABDUCTION WITH INTENT TO HOLD FOR RANSOM

DUE TO A LACK OF EVIDENCE

THE CHARGE WILL BE DROPPED.

MR. COULTER, YOU UNLAWFULLY TOOK YOUR GRANDSON

WITHOUT LEGAL RIGHT OR AUTHORITY.

EVEN THOUGH THIS IS ONLY A MISDEMEANOR

I'M GOING TO BE VERY HARD WITH YOU.

I'M GIVING YOU TWO YEARS.

IMPOSITION OF SENTENCE

IS SUSPENDED.

THE DEFENDANT WILL BE PLACED ON SIX MONTHS PROBATION

UNDER THE FOLLOWING TERMS:

DURING THAT SIX MONTHS

YOU WILL BE UNDER A RESTRAINING ORDER

AND AREN'T TO GO WITHIN 70 FEET

OF BRIAN OR HIS HOME.

70 FEET?

40 FEET.

SIXTY.

50 FEET.

YOU GOT IT.

BRIAN WILL REMAIN IN THE CUSTODY OF HIS MOTHER.

THANK YOU.

Judge: I HOPE YOU ALL

UNDERSTAND ME CLEARLY

AND HAVE LEARNED SOMETHING FROM THIS.

I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY OF YOU IN MY COURT AGAIN.

THAT GOES FOR YOU, TOO, MR. BANDUCCI.

I HEAR YOU, BABE.

AND THAT IS CONTEMPT OF COURT.

THAT WILL COST YOU $25, MR. BANDUCCI.

ANY OBJECTIONS?

HOW ABOUT $10?

IT IS NOW $50, MR. BANDUCCI.

Judge: ANY FURTHER OBJECTIONS?

NONE, YOUR HONOR.

AND EDISON...

THANK YOU, YOUR HONOR.

NEXT TIME, THINK THINGS THROUGH A LITTLE BETTER.

I WILL, YOUR HONOR.

THIS COURT IS ADJOURNED.

YOU DOING ALL RIGHT?

GET THEM, BRIAN.

I LIKE TO SEE MY GUYS HAPPY.

GET YOUR SMILES HERE NOW, FELLOWS

BECAUSE WHEN WE GET BACK TO THE CHAPEL

THERE WILL BE NONE.

SAL BANDUCCI.

WHAT DO YOU DO FOR A LIVING, SAL?

I'M A MAINTENANCE ENGINEER.

NOT A BONDED JUSTICE COURIER?

NO, SIR, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE AN INTERESTING LINE OF WORK.

LISTEN UP.

IF YOU EVER INTERFERE OR GET TOO CLOSE

TO ANY POLICE ACTIVITY AGAIN I WILL SEE TO IT

THAT YOU ARE THE MAINTENANCE ENGINEER AT SAN QUENTIN.

IS THAT CLEAR?

VERY CLEAR.

ABOUT THAT $50...

GET OUT OF MY OFFICE.

YOU BROKE THE LAW, GUYS.

YOU OBSTRUCTED JUSTICE.

YOU TAMPERED WITH EVIDENCE.

WHAT'S GOOD FOR THE PRESIDENT...

STOW IT, PENHALL, THIS ISN'T FUNNY.

YOU KNEW YOU WERE ACTING ILLEGALLY.

I'M NOT JUSTIFYING WHAT HAPPENED

BUT COULD YOU SEND THAT MAN TO JAIL

FOR WHAT HE DID?

I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.

I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT I UNDERSTAND.

BUT YOU HAVE GOT TO PLAY BY THE RULES

EVEN WHEN THEY DON'T SOUND RIGHT.

AM I UNDERSTOOD?

Together: YES, SIR.

GOOD.

GET OUT OF HERE.

OH, AND GUYS

THAT'S A TWO-DAY SUSPENSION WITHOUT PAY.
