This is a subpoena to appear before the Federal Grand Jury.
3

If Mrs. Fletcher calls again, would you please get in touch with me?
4
00:00:09,509 --> 00:00:11,670
Well, first of all, she's got to catch me.
5

Are you trying to give me a stroke?

00:00:17,817 --> 00:00:20,945
Would either of you have seen a woman by the name of Jessica Fletcher?
9
00:00:21,021 --> 00:00:23,581
What's going on, Mr. Logan, is murder.
10
00:00:23,656 --> 00:00:26,181
But I've never met the president of the United States.
11
00:00:26,259 --> 00:00:28,819
You are in contempt of this Federal Grand Jury.

He said he had an appointment out of the office.

16
00:01:34,060 --> 00:01:36,858
Doug was voted "Most Likely to Bail at the First Sign of Trouble."

Now, what trouble?
18

We are a respected company.
19
00:01:39,566 --> 00:01:41,431
We may have overlooked a couple of regulations.
20
00:01:41,501 --> 00:01:42,695
It happens all the time.
21

Be sure to tell that to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
22
00:01:45,171 --> 00:01:48,868
No, I'm afraid this is about certain irregularities with many of our mutual funds.
23

Mason, you never sugarcoat the facts. Where do we stand?
24

Excuse me, but I've got this distinct feeling
33
00:02:14,334 --> 00:02:16,564
that our CEO is trying to avoid biting the bullet.

I swear to God! I haven't told them anything.

They're going to force me to testify. What can I do, Mason?

It's a dream of a defense team.

of anything you might reveal about that.

00:18:05,751 --> 00:18:09,209
No, I could never find a lady with the right sized finger.
352
00:18:10,322 --> 00:18:11,550
You still knock me out, Annie.
353
00:18:12,925 --> 00:18:15,291
You are the only person who ever called me Annie.
354
00:18:17,696 --> 00:18:19,664
I assume you're here on business.
355
00:18:20,432 --> 00:18:23,026
A client who is also a friend. Jessica Fletcher.
356
00:18:23,102 --> 00:18:25,866
She was served with one of your subpoenas and she can't imagine why.
357
00:18:26,071 --> 00:18:28,904
She doesn't have to know why. She just has to be there.
358
00:18:28,974 --> 00:18:31,534
For old time's sake, how about telling me why.
359
00:18:32,244 --> 00:18:34,235
For the same reason we broke up, Lou.
360
00:18:34,446 --> 00:18:36,141
Because I wanted it to happen.
361
00:18:38,784 --> 00:18:41,309
I thought we broke up because you were afraid to be happy.
362
00:18:43,088 --> 00:18:45,283
Goodbye, Lou. I am very busy.
363
00:18:45,757 --> 00:18:47,816
I'm sorry I spoiled your morning.
364
00:18:47,893 --> 00:18:50,589
Maybe I'll see you again in another 15 years, Annette.
365
00:18:57,169 --> 00:19:00,696
Mrs. Fletcher, how many mystery novels have you written?
366
00:19:01,673 --> 00:19:03,800
My 23rd was published this week.
367
00:19:03,876 --> 00:19:05,275
That's very impressive.
368
00:19:05,344 --> 00:19:08,177
It must be difficult to come up with new stories.
369
00:19:08,247 --> 00:19:09,509
Well, sometimes.
370
00:19:09,581 --> 00:19:11,344
I mean, I'm always meeting people
371
00:19:11,416 --> 00:19:14,544
who are eager to share their mystery ideas with me.
372
00:19:15,120 --> 00:19:17,918
Is that why Paige Corbin telephoned you the night he disappeared?
373
00:19:17,990 --> 00:19:19,855
To share an idea for a mystery?
374
00:19:20,325 --> 00:19:22,350
No, I mean...
375
00:19:22,828 --> 00:19:24,125
Why did he call you?
376
00:19:24,663 --> 00:19:25,687
He didn't.
377
00:19:25,964 --> 00:19:27,829
I don't know Paige Corbin.
378
00:19:28,934 --> 00:19:31,767
This is a telephone company log of the phone calls
379
00:19:31,837 --> 00:19:33,998
that Paige Corbin made that night.
380
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,268
The final call was at 9:42 p.m.
381
00:19:37,609 --> 00:19:39,076
It is to a Manhattan number.
382
00:19:39,144 --> 00:19:41,044
Mrs. Fletcher, do you recognize this number?
383
00:19:42,181 --> 00:19:43,808
It's my number, yes. But...
384
00:19:43,882 --> 00:19:45,873
Yes. Let the record show that the number is
385
00:19:45,951 --> 00:19:49,785
area code
2-1-2-1-2-4-7-1-9-9.
386
00:19:50,022 --> 00:19:53,219
Why did Paige Corbin call you, Mrs. Fletcher?
387
00:19:53,592 --> 00:19:55,184
I have no idea, Ms. Rayburn.
388
00:19:55,260 --> 00:19:56,591
I didn't know the man
389
00:19:56,662 --> 00:20:00,098
and I'm sure that the phone company log is mistaken.
390
00:20:01,266 --> 00:20:02,790
Here is a partial list of customers
391
00:20:02,868 --> 00:20:05,166
for Logan Investment Services in New York.
392
00:20:05,337 --> 00:20:09,205
Would you please read the second name on the list so that the jury can hear you?
393
00:20:11,677 --> 00:20:12,735
Jessica Fletcher.
394
00:20:12,811 --> 00:20:15,803
Do you still insist that you do not know Paige Corbin?
395
00:20:17,349 --> 00:20:19,874
I also own government bonds,
396
00:20:20,085 --> 00:20:22,986
but I've never met the president of the United States.
397
00:20:23,055 --> 00:20:24,249
(ALL LAUGHING)
398
00:20:25,991 --> 00:20:30,121
And do you still deny that you received a phone call that night at 9:42 p. M?
399
00:20:30,529 --> 00:20:34,397
Wait, there was a call.
400
00:20:35,767 --> 00:20:37,496
I'd been working late with an editor
401
00:20:37,569 --> 00:20:39,696
and I stopped at an all-night grocery.
402
00:20:39,771 --> 00:20:41,796
The phone was ringing when I got home.
403
00:20:41,873 --> 00:20:44,603
I answered it just as the caller hung up.
404
00:20:45,310 --> 00:20:47,710
Doesn't that record show that the call ended immediately?
405
00:20:48,347 --> 00:20:49,473
Yes, it does.
406
00:20:49,548 --> 00:20:51,982
For the record, its duration was eight seconds.
407
00:20:52,784 --> 00:20:54,752
So, I never spoke to the man.
408
00:20:55,020 --> 00:20:58,512
Mrs. Fletcher, as I'm sure you know, Paige Corbin is missing.
409
00:20:58,857 --> 00:21:00,950
Possibly the victim of foul play.
410
00:21:01,293 --> 00:21:05,730
He is also a material witness in a federal investigation of massive proportions.
411
00:21:06,298 --> 00:21:07,595
As a student of mystery writing,
412
00:21:07,666 --> 00:21:10,658
are you aware of the device wherein a phone caller,
413
00:21:10,736 --> 00:21:12,294
in order to send a signal,
414
00:21:12,371 --> 00:21:14,771
hangs up on the other party as soon as they answer?
415
00:21:15,507 --> 00:21:17,338
Yes. Yes, of course I am, but...
416
00:21:17,409 --> 00:21:22,870
Mrs. Fletcher, you have one last chance to answer this question truthfully.
417
00:21:23,915 --> 00:21:26,406
If you do not, you will be charged with contempt.
418
00:21:26,485 --> 00:21:28,248
Think carefully before you answer.
419
00:21:29,154 --> 00:21:32,681
Paige Corbin called your telephone number that night.
420
00:21:33,358 --> 00:21:34,689
We know this for a fact.
421
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,387
We have proof.
422
00:21:37,029 --> 00:21:38,155
Why did he call you?
423
00:21:38,630 --> 00:21:41,098
What message was he conveying by doing so?
424
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,699
Look, I don't know how many ways I can tell you that I don't know.
425
00:21:44,936 --> 00:21:46,062
And frankly, at this point,
426
00:21:46,138 --> 00:21:48,538
I'm tempted to take the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer.
427
00:21:48,607 --> 00:21:49,665
It's too late for that.
428
00:21:49,741 --> 00:21:50,969
You have already waived that privilege
429
00:21:51,043 --> 00:21:52,670
by answering the other questions.
430
00:21:52,744 --> 00:21:55,269
Mrs. Fletcher, I am ordering you to answer.
431
00:21:56,782 --> 00:21:58,613
There's nothing I can say.
432
00:21:59,384 --> 00:22:00,681
Very well.
433
00:22:00,752 --> 00:22:03,312
You are in contempt of this Federal Grand Jury.
434
00:22:03,722 --> 00:22:07,089
I am sending you to Judge Morrison for a contempt hearing,
435
00:22:07,192 --> 00:22:11,788
at which time, you may or may not decide to cooperate.
436
00:22:16,034 --> 00:22:18,730
It looks like Paige Corbin skipped town.
437
00:22:18,804 --> 00:22:20,897
Leaving us stuck with grand jury subpoenas.
438
00:22:20,972 --> 00:22:24,237
Well, he could be under wraps. With his dear old friend protecting him.
439
00:22:24,910 --> 00:22:28,243
Or he could be hiding from that friend who wants him deader than road-kill.
440
00:22:28,313 --> 00:22:30,178
Or he could be dead already.
441
00:22:30,949 --> 00:22:32,712
Reed, what will we tell the Grand Jury?
442
00:22:32,784 --> 00:22:35,878
That our CEO and our board chairman kept us out of the loop?
443
00:22:35,954 --> 00:22:38,115
Exactly and then we're off the hook.
444
00:22:38,190 --> 00:22:40,715
Listen, if Mason Logan was that frightened to have his buddy killed,
445
00:22:41,893 --> 00:22:45,124
then the Hong Kong files are gonna be worth a lot more to him than we thought.
446
00:22:45,997 --> 00:22:47,464
Here's to more.
447
00:22:48,033 --> 00:22:51,298
I see you're admiring my photography. I'm Ted Duffy.
448
00:22:51,737 --> 00:22:52,761
Who cares?
449
00:22:52,838 --> 00:22:55,966
(CHUCKLING) I've got some others you might prefer.
450
00:22:56,041 --> 00:22:58,805
I think I captured the moment quite nicely, don't you?
451
00:22:58,944 --> 00:23:00,605
REED: You were there at Mason's office.
452
00:23:00,679 --> 00:23:01,805
Uh-huh.
453
00:23:02,748 --> 00:23:04,477
All right, so you took my picture. Big deal.
454
00:23:04,549 --> 00:23:07,712
It enlarged really well. I'm so proud.
455
00:23:08,153 --> 00:23:11,589
Oh, my God! We can't let anyone see these.
456
00:23:11,656 --> 00:23:14,887
That's the general idea. Well, you can keep those as a souvenir.
457
00:23:15,394 --> 00:23:17,658
The negatives are on sale for $10,000.
458
00:23:17,729 --> 00:23:22,029
No, wait, wait, wait. Only 10? How would you like $50,000?
459
00:23:24,836 --> 00:23:27,600
I'm as greedy as the next guy. Spell it out.
460
00:23:28,039 --> 00:23:31,236
Use your street rat connections to locate Paige Corbin
461
00:23:31,309 --> 00:23:33,209
before the police and Feds find him.
462
00:23:33,345 --> 00:23:36,246
What are you gonna do? Squeeze him along with Mason Logan?
463
00:23:36,481 --> 00:23:38,949
(LAUGHS) Well, that's my business.
464
00:23:39,518 --> 00:23:41,486
But don't worry, you'll get your story
465
00:23:41,653 --> 00:23:43,518
and some walking-around cash.
466
00:23:44,289 --> 00:23:47,417
(LAUGHS) For that kind of cash, I'll find Jimmy Hoffa.
467
00:23:47,959 --> 00:23:49,153
(LAUGHING)
468
00:23:52,230 --> 00:23:54,790
Lou, you are a magician. How in the world...
469
00:23:54,866 --> 00:23:56,458
It was nothing, Jessica.
470
00:23:56,535 --> 00:23:58,935
First, I summoned all the legal skills in my command
471
00:23:59,004 --> 00:24:00,995
and then I took another look at your subpoena
472
00:24:01,072 --> 00:24:03,563
and I realized it was invalid because they neglected
473
00:24:03,642 --> 00:24:06,270
to include the required Advice of Rights.
474
00:24:06,344 --> 00:24:10,041
It's a little form the Department of Justice insists that they provide.
475
00:24:10,115 --> 00:24:13,016
It tells you things like the fact that if you get asked a tough question,
476
00:24:13,084 --> 00:24:15,382
they have to let you step outside the Grand Jury room
477
00:24:15,454 --> 00:24:17,445
to confer with your attorney. Things like that.
478
00:24:17,522 --> 00:24:19,422
I mean, that would have been such a big help.
479
00:24:19,491 --> 00:24:20,856
Anyway, thank you.
480
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:23,693
And thank heaven that nightmare is over.
481
00:24:23,762 --> 00:24:24,751
Don't be too sure.
482
00:24:24,830 --> 00:24:27,458
If I know Annette Rayburn, you can expect to be served again
483
00:24:27,532 --> 00:24:29,329
and this time she'll get it right.
484
00:24:29,401 --> 00:24:32,700
You mean, I'll find myself in the same Catch-22?
485
00:24:33,138 --> 00:24:34,730
Lou, what is her problem?
486
00:24:34,806 --> 00:24:36,103
You have to understand.
487
00:24:36,174 --> 00:24:38,301
What makes her such a tenacious prosecutor
488
00:24:38,376 --> 00:24:39,809
is that it's all so personal to her.
489
00:24:39,878 --> 00:24:42,813
Like she's on a mission to nail the world's bad guys.
490
00:24:42,881 --> 00:24:44,041
As long as I've known her.
491
00:24:44,115 --> 00:24:45,673
Oh, and she's convinced that I'm one of them.
492
00:24:45,750 --> 00:24:47,217
Well, I don't think so.
493
00:24:47,285 --> 00:24:48,274
What do you mean?
494
00:24:48,353 --> 00:24:50,753
Well, first of all, she's got to catch me.
495
00:24:50,822 --> 00:24:53,484
And in the meantime, I'm just going to have to find out
496
00:24:53,558 --> 00:24:56,220
why Paige Corbin phoned my number.
497
00:25:21,820 --> 00:25:24,380
It's amazing. They fixed the door already.
498
00:25:24,456 --> 00:25:26,014
I've been waiting six months for my landlord
499
00:25:26,091 --> 00:25:27,956
to replace the float in my toilet tank.
500
00:25:28,026 --> 00:25:30,586
Where was Mr. Corbin when he dialed my phone number?
501
00:25:30,662 --> 00:25:31,890
In here.
502
00:25:32,230 --> 00:25:33,629
The phone's on the desk.
503
00:25:35,267 --> 00:25:38,828
Hmm. I wonder if my phone number is in here?
504
00:25:39,404 --> 00:25:40,530
(KNOCK ON DOOR)
505
00:25:40,605 --> 00:25:41,765
Uh, excuse me.
506
00:25:50,282 --> 00:25:51,647
May I help you?
507
00:25:51,716 --> 00:25:55,311
Lieutenant Riley, I'm Annette Rayburn, Assistant District Attorney.
508
00:25:56,054 --> 00:25:57,419
Your office told me that 45 minutes ago
509
00:25:57,489 --> 00:25:58,854
you got a call from J.B. Fletcher.
510
00:25:58,990 --> 00:26:01,481
That's right. We met for coffee.
511
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,687
They also told me that you're friends.
512
00:26:03,762 --> 00:26:05,252
Did she happen to mention that we're trying to find her
513
00:26:05,330 --> 00:26:07,628
to serve her with a summons to appear before the Grand Jury?
514
00:26:07,699 --> 00:26:08,893
Another one?
515
00:26:08,967 --> 00:26:11,902
Don't con me, Lieutenant. She's avoiding my people.
516
00:26:11,970 --> 00:26:13,460
Do you know where she is?
517
00:26:14,573 --> 00:26:15,733
Not at the moment, no.
518
00:26:16,308 --> 00:26:18,674
Now look, Ms. Rayburn, I'm right in the middle of something here, so...
519
00:26:18,743 --> 00:26:23,043
Lieutenant, you could get into a lot of trouble lying to a federal prosecutor.
520
00:26:23,114 --> 00:26:24,479
Tell me.
521
00:26:24,549 --> 00:26:27,313
Now, look, you want us to find this Corbin guy, don't you?
522
00:26:27,652 --> 00:26:30,314
If Mrs. Fletcher calls again, would you please get in touch with me?
523
00:26:30,522 --> 00:26:31,784
Absolutely.
524
00:26:32,090 --> 00:26:33,079
(DOOR CLOSING)
525
00:26:35,727 --> 00:26:37,251
I did not lie.
526
00:26:37,329 --> 00:26:38,318
From where I was at that moment,
527
00:26:38,396 --> 00:26:40,159
I didn't know where you were exactly.
528
00:26:40,231 --> 00:26:45,362
Well, I appreciate it, Shawn. Look, I think that this may explain
529
00:26:45,437 --> 00:26:47,598
how Mr. Corbin happened to call me.
530
00:26:47,672 --> 00:26:52,439
Look, the first four digits of this emergency number are the same as mine.
531
00:26:53,011 --> 00:26:54,911
1-2-4-7.
532
00:26:55,480 --> 00:27:00,315
And this card has my last three numbers, 1-9-9.
533
00:27:00,685 --> 00:27:01,743
That's it.
534
00:27:02,020 --> 00:27:03,749
Wait a minute. Am I missing something?
535
00:27:04,522 --> 00:27:07,753
Suppose the noise at the door distracted Paige Corbin while he was looking up
536
00:27:07,826 --> 00:27:09,623
the number that he wanted to call.
537
00:27:09,995 --> 00:27:13,260
He dialed the first four numbers on this card,
538
00:27:14,099 --> 00:27:15,498
then turned toward the noise,
539
00:27:15,567 --> 00:27:19,628
unaware that the wheel moved and the next card dropped.
540
00:27:20,505 --> 00:27:24,464
He finished dialing the last three numbers of the second card.
541
00:27:24,643 --> 00:27:27,111
Well, son-of-a-gun! Then you were a wrong number.
542
00:27:27,379 --> 00:27:30,405
Now we need to find out who he was calling.
543
00:27:32,183 --> 00:27:33,480
(DIALING)
544
00:27:34,219 --> 00:27:35,208
(PHONE RINGING)
545
00:27:35,286 --> 00:27:36,685
AUTOMATED VOICE: May I take a message?
546
00:27:36,755 --> 00:27:37,881
Hold please.
547
00:27:37,956 --> 00:27:39,787
It seems to be an answering service.
548
00:27:40,558 --> 00:27:41,650
WOMAN: Yes, ma'am.
549
00:27:41,726 --> 00:27:44,627
Can you tell me whose number I've reached?
550
00:27:44,763 --> 00:27:46,230
No, I can't.
551
00:27:46,297 --> 00:27:48,356
Well, what's the name of your service?
552
00:27:48,933 --> 00:27:52,596
Got the Message. Ma'am, would you like to leave a message?
553
00:27:52,671 --> 00:27:53,865
Thank you, no.
554
00:27:53,938 --> 00:27:57,305
Got the Message. I'll get a warrant and search their records.
555
00:27:58,209 --> 00:28:00,871
But that still leaves us without a clue as to what happened to Corbin.
556
00:28:01,079 --> 00:28:03,604
Or who figured to profit from his disappearance.
557
00:28:04,616 --> 00:28:07,779
You said that his daughter, Maria, wasn't much help.
558
00:28:08,353 --> 00:28:11,345
Nada. On top of which, she's going with the son
559
00:28:11,423 --> 00:28:14,756
of Logan Investment Services' board chairman, Mason Logan.
560
00:28:14,826 --> 00:28:16,691
She wouldn't even tell us how to find him.
561
00:28:16,761 --> 00:28:18,023
Name's Nick.
562
00:28:18,530 --> 00:28:20,191
Oh, here, got the old man.
563
00:28:21,499 --> 00:28:24,434
SoHo Storage. That's strange.
564
00:28:24,736 --> 00:28:29,002
I mean, SoHo Storage should be among the "S"s, not the "L"s.
565
00:28:29,074 --> 00:28:30,098
Unless...
566
00:28:30,809 --> 00:28:33,778
SoHo Storage stands for Logan.
567
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:49,891
Somebody slept here.
568
00:28:49,961 --> 00:28:51,553
Well, there's no one here now.
569
00:29:07,178 --> 00:29:08,805
I'm afraid that's not true.
570
00:29:10,982 --> 00:29:12,540
You looking for me?
571
00:29:14,152 --> 00:29:16,620
Who are you? What is going on?
572
00:29:16,955 --> 00:29:19,549
What's going on, Mr. Logan, is murder.
573
00:29:29,968 --> 00:29:32,630
The last time I saw him alive was when I went out for lunch.
574
00:29:32,704 --> 00:29:34,604
Where did you eat? Who cares where he ate?
575
00:29:34,672 --> 00:29:35,969
Somebody might remember seeing him.
576
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,337
It doesn't matter where he ate.
577
00:29:37,408 --> 00:29:38,432
Okay.
578
00:29:38,943 --> 00:29:41,537
You went to his townhouse last night to kidnap him. He puts up a fight...
579
00:29:41,613 --> 00:29:45,014
No. I went there to try to talk him into coming with me.
580
00:29:45,416 --> 00:29:47,611
He got scared, he wouldn't open his door.
581
00:29:48,153 --> 00:29:50,121
Look, his bags were already packed.
582
00:29:50,188 --> 00:29:51,348
RILEY: That adds up.
583
00:29:51,422 --> 00:29:53,356
We checked the call he made before he phoned Mrs. Fletcher.
584
00:29:53,424 --> 00:29:55,619
It was to a limousine service, to take him to JFK.
585
00:29:55,693 --> 00:29:57,991
Has the Fletcher woman called you since we spoke?
586
00:29:58,129 --> 00:29:59,153
No.
587
00:29:59,597 --> 00:30:00,894
Where were you gonna take him?
588
00:30:01,633 --> 00:30:04,124
Here for a day or so, then out of the country.
589
00:30:04,202 --> 00:30:06,261
To protect your father from prosecution.
590
00:30:06,337 --> 00:30:08,328
Are you also willing to go to prison for him?
591
00:30:09,541 --> 00:30:11,509
I don't think I'm going to answer any more questions.
592
00:30:12,310 --> 00:30:14,801
You will when I bring you in front of the Grand Jury.
593
00:30:14,879 --> 00:30:18,178
In the meantime, pal, you're under arrest for suspicion of murder.
594
00:30:18,249 --> 00:30:21,275
Oh, come on. Now, if I wanted to murder the man,
595
00:30:21,352 --> 00:30:23,047
why would I feed him and put him up for the night?
596
00:30:23,121 --> 00:30:26,181
Can anybody tell me that? And why would I have come back here?
597
00:30:28,126 --> 00:30:29,218
MARIA: It was you, wasn't it?
598
00:30:29,294 --> 00:30:31,626
You killed my father, or had your own son do it for you.
599
00:30:32,096 --> 00:30:33,529
Maria, Paige and I, we were friends...
600
00:30:33,598 --> 00:30:35,031
Save it, all right?
601
00:30:35,099 --> 00:30:36,361
You'd set him up to take the fall.
602
00:30:36,434 --> 00:30:38,902
Then he changed his mind and that meant he had to die.
603
00:30:38,970 --> 00:30:40,437
And now you're protecting Nick.
604
00:30:40,772 --> 00:30:42,171
You don't understand, but, look,
605
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,208
I've got to go, so if you'll excuse me...
606
00:30:44,275 --> 00:30:47,108
Not before we've had a chance to talk, Mr. Logan.
607
00:30:48,012 --> 00:30:49,604
My name is Jessica Fletcher.
608
00:30:50,181 --> 00:30:52,547
You're Paige Corbin's daughter, aren't you?
609
00:30:52,750 --> 00:30:54,877
I saw your picture in his townhouse.
610
00:30:54,953 --> 00:30:56,511
I'm sorry about what happened.
611
00:30:57,255 --> 00:30:58,381
Thank you.
612
00:30:58,456 --> 00:31:02,324
Shortly before he left the townhouse, or was abducted,
613
00:31:02,861 --> 00:31:05,557
he inadvertently dialed my phone number.
614
00:31:05,630 --> 00:31:10,966
Now, the number that he intended to call was 1-2-4-7-5-2-3.
615
00:31:11,336 --> 00:31:14,396
It's an answering service called Got the Message.
616
00:31:15,173 --> 00:31:17,038
He was trying to leave a message for someone?
617
00:31:17,141 --> 00:31:18,199
Mmm-hmm.
618
00:31:18,276 --> 00:31:20,710
I don't know, either, Mrs. Fletcher.
619
00:31:21,012 --> 00:31:23,503
Look, I apologize for any inconvenience all this has caused you.
620
00:31:23,581 --> 00:31:25,344
But now, if you will excuse me...
621
00:31:25,416 --> 00:31:26,906
Not yet, Mr. Logan.
622
00:31:26,985 --> 00:31:29,078
Look, I have been subpoenaed, jailed.
623
00:31:29,153 --> 00:31:31,519
I'm currently evading a process-server
624
00:31:31,589 --> 00:31:35,582
and a federal prosecutor is convinced that I am part of a criminal conspiracy.
625
00:31:35,660 --> 00:31:36,752
And now there's been a murder,
626
00:31:36,828 --> 00:31:39,353
in which your son happens to be a suspect.
627
00:31:39,697 --> 00:31:41,597
I'm not leaving until I get answers.
628
00:31:41,666 --> 00:31:42,826
Yes, ma'am, as you wish.
629
00:31:43,234 --> 00:31:46,499
I went into some old newspaper files on Internet this afternoon.
630
00:31:46,571 --> 00:31:50,632
About 30 years ago, the SEC was investigating you
631
00:31:50,708 --> 00:31:54,542
and your company for illegally dipping into customer accounts.
632
00:31:54,779 --> 00:31:55,837
You?
633
00:31:55,914 --> 00:31:57,404
That investigation was dropped.
634
00:31:57,882 --> 00:31:59,611
Why don't you tell Maria why?
635
00:32:01,052 --> 00:32:05,455
The SEC agent in charge was killed in a terrible automobile accident.
636
00:32:05,556 --> 00:32:07,046
His car caught fire.
637
00:32:07,125 --> 00:32:09,286
All the notes on the case went up in flames.
638
00:32:09,794 --> 00:32:12,092
Along with their spurious case against me.
639
00:32:12,163 --> 00:32:15,326
But now, what does any of this got to do with Paige Corbin's murder, anyway?
640
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,766
Well, that's what I'm here to ask you, Mr. Logan.
641
00:32:18,436 --> 00:32:21,098
All I know is, now they're coming after us again
642
00:32:21,539 --> 00:32:24,007
and it's cost me the life of the best friend I've ever had.
643
00:32:24,075 --> 00:32:25,975
Now, does that answer your question?
644
00:32:26,144 --> 00:32:29,477
I'm not sure, Mr. Logan. But thank you.
645
00:32:29,547 --> 00:32:30,707
(RINGING)
646
00:32:31,516 --> 00:32:33,211
Excuse me. Yes?
647
00:32:34,018 --> 00:32:36,543
WOMAN: Mr. Logan, there's a US Marshal coming in to see you.
648
00:32:40,591 --> 00:32:42,422
Okay, Mr. Logan,
649
00:32:42,493 --> 00:32:45,018
I'm placing you under arrest on this bench warrant,
650
00:32:45,096 --> 00:32:48,065
for failure to appear before a Federal Grand Jury hearing.
651
00:32:48,132 --> 00:32:51,124
Oh, Marshal, I'm afraid I'm not gonna be able to go with you,
652
00:32:51,202 --> 00:32:55,662
because, as my attorney is no doubt making clear to Ms. Rayburn as we speak,
653
00:32:55,740 --> 00:32:58,265
I'm due to check in at University Hospital in...
654
00:32:58,977 --> 00:33:00,103
Oh, my goodness!
655
00:33:00,178 --> 00:33:03,875
In 20 minutes for spinal surgery first thing tomorrow
656
00:33:03,948 --> 00:33:06,644
and I suspect it'll probably be a waste of time, but...
657
00:33:06,718 --> 00:33:08,777
All right, all right, all right. I'll check with the office.
658
00:33:08,853 --> 00:33:10,013
(DIALING)
659
00:33:12,123 --> 00:33:14,921
Listen, would either of you have seen a woman by the name of Jessica Fletcher?
660
00:33:23,634 --> 00:33:25,124
All right, Duffy.
661
00:33:25,203 --> 00:33:26,261
All right.
662
00:33:26,871 --> 00:33:29,271
Before Reed gets here, this is what it's about.
663
00:33:29,340 --> 00:33:32,036
He offered you $50,000
for the negatives and the information.
664
00:33:32,110 --> 00:33:33,099
Right.
665
00:33:33,177 --> 00:33:35,873
I'll double it if you bring me the Hong Kong disk.
666
00:33:37,148 --> 00:33:38,809
Me take it off Reed?
667
00:33:40,651 --> 00:33:42,676
What's on it? No, wait, don't tell me.
668
00:33:43,187 --> 00:33:45,121
Secret accounts in Far East banks
669
00:33:45,189 --> 00:33:49,091
where Corbin and Logan kept their illicit gain.
670
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,493
In the right hands, my hands, power.
671
00:33:53,898 --> 00:33:58,062
That kind of power must be worth a lot to you.
672
00:34:00,371 --> 00:34:03,169
We can talk about that later, at my place.
673
00:34:07,445 --> 00:34:08,810
Sorry, babe.
674
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:10,973
Is my take on you wrong?
675
00:34:11,616 --> 00:34:15,416
Not at all. It's just that Reed is a very dangerous man.
676
00:34:15,486 --> 00:34:17,511
The late Paige Corbin is proof of that.
677
00:34:18,423 --> 00:34:20,482
Funny. I thought you might have been responsible.
678
00:34:20,691 --> 00:34:22,283
Or it could have been you,
679
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,454
which is an even better reason not to play your little game.
680
00:34:25,930 --> 00:34:28,125
What a delicious sense of humor.
681
00:34:28,199 --> 00:34:30,759
Reed, darling, Duffy's been entertaining me.
682
00:34:32,203 --> 00:34:34,728
You wouldn't be hitting on my woman, now, would you, Duff?
683
00:34:35,673 --> 00:34:38,039
The thought never entered my mind, Reed.
684
00:34:39,143 --> 00:34:41,270
And what kind of day have you been having, darling?
685
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:44,477
So far, lousy. I've lost a good friend.
686
00:34:45,183 --> 00:34:47,174
But if Mason Logan survives his surgery,
687
00:34:47,251 --> 00:34:49,981
well, the rest of the week promises to be very rewarding.
688
00:34:50,421 --> 00:34:51,547
Here's to Hong Kong.
689
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,095
Look, it's not my decision. I'm just the messenger.
690
00:34:59,163 --> 00:35:01,688
Washington wants the plug pulled on this as of now.
691
00:35:01,766 --> 00:35:03,859
Johnny, no. I'm getting close.
692
00:35:03,935 --> 00:35:05,994
I know I'll be able to indict before this is over.
693
00:35:06,070 --> 00:35:08,800
Indict who? They figure with Corbin dead and Logan iffy,
694

00:35:15,046 --> 00:35:16,513
just like Washington wanted.
698
00:35:16,581 --> 00:35:19,175
Reed Harding, Tiffany Beckman, three or four more.
699
00:35:19,484 --> 00:35:20,951
What about the novelist, that Fletcher woman?
700
00:35:21,018 --> 00:35:22,212
Well, we still haven't caught up with her.
701
00:35:22,286 --> 00:35:23,981
But when we do, she's going to sit in a cell
702
00:35:24,055 --> 00:35:25,545
until she tells me the truth.
703
00:35:25,623 --> 00:35:27,090
Johnny, please.

00:35:31,529 --> 00:35:33,997
Look, I need your help.
24 hours.
706
00:35:34,432 --> 00:35:36,696
Okay. Okay, but that's my limit.
707
00:35:36,767 --> 00:35:38,962
I'm not going to fall on my sword for you, Annette.
708
00:35:39,036 --> 00:35:40,298
Thanks, Johnny.
709
00:35:42,039 --> 00:35:44,974
Traffic detail said they didn't keep very complete accident records
710
00:35:45,042 --> 00:35:47,670
that far back, except that they know it was unsolved.
711
00:35:48,513 --> 00:35:51,209
But I remembered that you mentioned that the car had burned,
712
00:35:51,282 --> 00:35:52,806
so I got in touch with the fire department.
713
00:35:52,884 --> 00:35:54,909
Well, that was brilliant, Shawn.
714
00:35:54,986 --> 00:35:56,510
Well, we hope.
715
00:35:58,356 --> 00:35:59,516
Jessica, what is it?
716
00:35:59,590 --> 00:36:02,753
Well, the fire boss's report indicates that the SEC agent,
717
00:36:02,827 --> 00:36:07,196
James Holland, was killed when his car was struck by a hit-and-run driver.
718
00:36:07,431 --> 00:36:08,557
And there was an eye-witness,
719
00:36:08,633 --> 00:36:10,396
his 10-year-old daughter, Carla.
720
00:36:11,002 --> 00:36:12,128
Which leaves us where?

723
00:36:15,673 --> 00:36:17,664
We found this in the James Holland file.
724
00:36:17,742 --> 00:36:19,937
Based on the kid's description of the hit-and-run driver.
725
00:36:22,046 --> 00:36:23,673
But I still don't see what this has got to do
726
00:36:23,748 --> 00:36:26,080
with the murder of Annette Rayburn's star witness
727
00:36:26,150 --> 00:36:28,175

When I'm finished,
730
00:36:37,195 --> 00:36:40,289
I think we should take a quick trip to the murder scene.

00:36:46,137 --> 00:36:47,195
Annette.
732
00:36:47,271 --> 00:36:49,865
Lou, save it. We have nothing to talk about.
733
00:36:50,007 --> 00:36:53,204
Jessica Fletcher would like me to tell you that she's sorry if...
734
00:36:53,277 --> 00:36:56,542
Well, you can tell her that I do not accept her apology.
735
00:36:57,215 --> 00:36:59,080
Oh, and actually, there is something.
736
00:36:59,450 --> 00:37:01,975
Didn't you used to represent Mason Logan and Paige Corbin?
737
00:37:02,687 --> 00:37:04,052
A long time ago, yes.
738
00:37:04,322 --> 00:37:07,883
They were clients of the firm I worked for when I first passed the bar. Why?
739
00:37:07,959 --> 00:37:10,894
It proves to me we never could have had anything in common.
740
00:37:15,433 --> 00:37:16,593
You know what?
741
00:37:17,201 --> 00:37:19,169

This Grand Jury has no wish to reward cooperation with punitive measures.

Are you ready to begin?
754
00:38:14,425 --> 00:38:15,619
When you were on the stand before,
755
00:38:15,693 --> 00:38:16,887
I asked you about the telephone call
756
00:38:16,961 --> 00:38:18,360
you received from Paige Corbin.
757
00:38:18,629 --> 00:38:20,927
And I told you that I never spoke to him.
758
00:38:21,365 --> 00:38:22,923
Would you care to try again?
759
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:24,092
But if I can prove it?
760
00:38:24,168 --> 00:38:27,035
Mrs. Fletcher, are you shopping for a new contempt charge?
761
00:38:27,104 --> 00:38:28,196
Oh, heavens, no!

may I remind you that there was a witness?

00:38:34,912 --> 00:38:36,607
Nick Logan was with Paige Corbin

when he hung up the phone without speaking.
766
00:38:38,749 --> 00:38:42,708
Yes, and may I remind you that Nick Logan is an alleged murderer?

I do not remember inviting a policeman into my jury room.

This is a fax of June 2nd, 1966,

Mrs. Fletcher, we are examining current criminal activities,

00:39:30,568 --> 00:39:32,126
not excavating ancient history.
784
00:39:32,203 --> 00:39:33,568
James Holland, 33,
785
00:39:33,637 --> 00:39:35,628
a Securities and Exchange Commission agent,
786
00:39:35,706 --> 00:39:38,266
was on his way to pick up his 10-year-old daughter, Carla,
787
00:39:38,342 --> 00:39:40,173
at school yesterday afternoon.
788
00:39:40,244 --> 00:39:43,509
The little girl saw his car side-swiped and run off the road
789
00:39:43,581 --> 00:39:45,412
by a hit-and-run driver.
790
00:39:45,549 --> 00:39:48,143
Mr. Holland's car collided with an abutment.
791
00:39:48,219 --> 00:39:51,017
He was killed instantly. The car burst into flames.
792
00:39:52,590 --> 00:39:55,923
The newspaper left out Carla Holland's middle name.
793
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:57,549
Annette.
794
00:39:57,895 --> 00:39:59,886
Rayburn was her mother's maiden name.
795
00:40:00,264 --> 00:40:01,492
You were that little girl.
796
00:40:01,565 --> 00:40:02,793
Mrs. Fletcher...
797
00:40:02,867 --> 00:40:05,199
James Holland was your father.
798
00:40:05,836 --> 00:40:08,737
He'd been investigating a stockbroker named Mason Logan.
799
00:40:08,806 --> 00:40:11,570
You were horrified. And so frightened.
800
00:40:11,909 --> 00:40:14,002
You saw the driver of the other car.
801
00:40:14,512 --> 00:40:16,571
It was two days before you could bring yourself
802
00:40:16,647 --> 00:40:19,241
to describe him to a police sketch artist,
803
00:40:19,650 --> 00:40:21,777
but he drew this.
804
00:40:24,789 --> 00:40:27,883
The man who killed your father was never caught.
805
00:40:28,726 --> 00:40:32,162
But the incident marked you and 30 years later,
806
00:40:32,229 --> 00:40:35,687
just a few days ago, you saw the man in the flesh.
807
00:40:35,766 --> 00:40:38,564
It was Paige Corbin and you killed him.
808
00:40:38,636 --> 00:40:41,264
Madam Foreman, this witness is excused.

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)
810
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,466
A little while ago, when I saw the sketch that the police had made
811
00:40:45,543 --> 00:40:47,773
from your description of the killer 30 years ago,
812
00:40:47,845 --> 00:40:51,372
I realized that it resembled Paige Corbin.
813
00:40:51,449 --> 00:40:56,113
And when Lieutenant Riley referred to Mr. Corbin as your star witness,
814
00:40:56,187 --> 00:40:58,985
it reminded me of something that I'd noticed at the murder scene,
815
00:40:59,190 --> 00:41:00,987
but I hadn't thought much about.
816
00:41:01,125 --> 00:41:05,061
Something on the desk, amid the paper clips and the rubber bands.
817
00:41:05,429 --> 00:41:07,454
A tiny gold star
818
00:41:08,165 --> 00:41:12,625
that matches the one in your right ear and is missing from your left.
819
00:41:14,138 --> 00:41:15,332
This one.
820
00:41:16,807 --> 00:41:19,935
Which you lost when you murdered Mr. Corbin.
821
00:41:20,010 --> 00:41:23,275
(EXCLAIMS) That's ridiculous. I must have lost it
822
00:41:23,347 --> 00:41:25,645
when I met Lieutenant Riley at the murder scene.
823
00:41:25,916 --> 00:41:27,645
That's not true, Ms. Rayburn.
824
00:41:27,718 --> 00:41:30,278
This crime scene photo happened to have been snapped
825
00:41:30,354 --> 00:41:33,187
at the moment you entered Nick Logan's warehouse office.
826
00:41:34,091 --> 00:41:37,788
As you can see, the little star wasn't in your ear.
827
00:41:53,043 --> 00:41:56,342
When I saw Paige Corbin, yesterday, I was stunned.
828
00:41:57,815 --> 00:41:58,975
Suddenly, there I was,
829
00:41:59,049 --> 00:42:01,449
face-to-face with the cause of all my nightmares.
830
00:42:01,519 --> 00:42:05,785
But you had provided Mr. Corbin with a number where he could reach you.
831
00:42:05,856 --> 00:42:09,724
An answering service to which you subscribed under the name of John Smith.
832
00:42:10,728 --> 00:42:12,355
The number he was trying to call
833
00:42:12,429 --> 00:42:15,227
when he accidentally reached mine instead.
834
00:42:16,033 --> 00:42:19,196
Yes, but that night I went to confront him.
835
00:42:19,870 --> 00:42:22,202
I saw that the door had been kicked in and he was gone.
836
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,699
Spirited away by Nick Logan.
837
00:42:25,943 --> 00:42:28,639
But early this morning he called the service.
838
00:42:29,346 --> 00:42:30,973
He said that he was afraid.
839
00:42:31,048 --> 00:42:34,950
He said that he wanted to testify against Mason Logan
840
00:42:35,052 --> 00:42:37,520
in exchange for immunity from prosecution.
841
00:42:38,055 --> 00:42:40,023
I said that that would be no problem.
842
00:42:40,457 --> 00:42:44,484
I mean, my father had been investigating Mason Logan for years.
843
00:42:47,031 --> 00:42:51,195
I told him that he would be picked up and placed in protective custody.
844
00:42:53,170 --> 00:42:58,039
Then he gave me the number of the warehouse and the address.
845
00:42:59,710 --> 00:43:02,110
So, I decided to go myself to pick him up.
846
00:43:03,013 --> 00:43:04,310
Oh, I just wanted him to admit it.
847
00:43:04,381 --> 00:43:08,545
I just wanted him to admit what he did to my father.
848
00:43:09,954 --> 00:43:12,252
But he didn't.
849
00:43:12,790 --> 00:43:13,916
He denied it.
850
00:43:14,258 --> 00:43:17,921
He laughed.
851
00:43:18,228 --> 00:43:23,165
I saw the letter opener on the desk and suddenly, I...
852
00:43:23,233 --> 00:43:27,226
I just... I just wanted him to feel a little bit
853
00:43:27,304 --> 00:43:29,431
of what I'd been feeling all those years.
854
00:43:34,812 --> 00:43:38,976
Lieutenant Riley, will you do the honors?
855
00:43:40,351 --> 00:43:41,477
Of course.
856
00:43:46,657 --> 00:43:48,454
Excuse me, Ms. Rayburn, I'm Reed Harding.
857
00:43:48,525 --> 00:43:49,890

It's yours in exchange for my immunity.

(LAUGHS)
862
00:43:59,937 --> 00:44:01,905
Lieutenant, since I'm no longer in a position
863
00:44:01,972 --> 00:44:03,872
to bargain with this man, he's your prisoner.
864
00:44:04,375 --> 00:44:05,535
Prisoner? What are you...
865
00:44:05,609 --> 00:44:07,338
I believe you have a point there, Ms. Rayburn.
866
00:44:07,411 --> 00:44:08,708
Shell, cuff this guy.
867
00:44:08,779 --> 00:44:10,474
Oh, no, no! You can't do this! Stop!

00:44:10,547 --> 00:44:12,412
DUFFY: Can I get a smile, please?
869
00:44:15,953 --> 00:44:17,318
(MEN CHATTERING)
870
00:44:18,989 --> 00:44:20,388
Good news, Jessica.
871
00:44:20,824 --> 00:44:23,349
Mason Logan's surgery was a huge success.
872
00:44:23,427 --> 00:44:24,451
Great.
873
00:44:24,528 --> 00:44:27,292
He'll be able to face a judge after all. And Nick Logan?
874
00:44:27,631 --> 00:44:29,656
Well, he's got plenty of explaining to do
875
00:44:29,733 --> 00:44:32,065
before he and Maria Corbin can get their lives back together.
876
00:44:32,136 --> 00:44:33,865
Mmm-hmm. Can I buy you lunch?
877
00:44:33,937 --> 00:44:37,771
Oh, thanks, but I'm already a week behind on an important deadline.
878
00:44:38,042 --> 00:44:39,168
Oh, no!
879
00:44:40,210 --> 00:44:41,802
Not to worry, Mrs. Fletcher.
880
00:44:41,879 --> 00:44:44,541
You forgot your reading glasses down at the courthouse.
881
00:44:44,948 --> 00:44:46,643
(ALL LAUGHING)
