1 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:52,460 What the commissioner sometimes fails to recognize is that his job involves more 2 00:00:52,460 --> 00:00:57,760 than appointing committee and listening to their interminable report. 3 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,280 We're due there in 15 minutes. 4 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:01,700 I know when we're due there. 5 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,780 Pour me a cup of that, will you please? 6 00:01:05,540 --> 00:01:06,840 What's the report on today? 7 00:01:08,180 --> 00:01:09,240 Ah, the usual. 8 00:01:10,140 --> 00:01:11,140 Increase in crime. 9 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,260 Decrease in the budget.

We have to find out three things. 145 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,820 Who he is, who he's planning to murder, and why he's calling me. 146 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,040 Well, there's a fourth thing to figure out. Where do we begin? 147 00:11:26,220 --> 00:11:27,420 The classic case, Chief. 148 00:11:27,700 --> 00:11:30,540 The police records are full of them, the textbooks are full of them, the 149 00:11:30,540 --> 00:11:31,540 logbooks are full of them. 150 00:11:31,740 --> 00:11:34,140 The obsession to kill together with the fear of killing. 151 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,640 And the compulsion to be stopped. 152 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,140 He wants you to catch him before he does it, but if you don't catch him, he'll 153 00:11:39,140 --> 00:11:39,719 do it. 154 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,020 The only difference between this guy and Jack the Ripper is that the telephone 155 00:11:43,020 --> 00:11:45,940 was invented in between. Jack had it sent letters, this guy phoned you. 156 00:11:46,460 --> 00:11:47,840 But the message is the same. 157 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:49,840 Catch me before I kill someone. 158 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:51,320 I'm not so sure. 159 00:11:52,100 --> 00:11:58,120 Why? Because Jack the Ripper was a long time ago, and right here today, there 160 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,480 could be a guy with a telescopic sight in some building across the street. 161 00:12:01,980 --> 00:12:02,979 Aimed at me? 162 00:12:02,980 --> 00:12:04,000 It happened once before. 163 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:05,600 I see. 164 00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:08,580 Chief, why doesn't he just try it? Why the call? 165 00:12:08,900 --> 00:12:14,840 Because the best way to get the chief out someplace where it's nice and quiet 166 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:19,540 and safe and lonely is to say to him first, I'm going to kill somebody. 167 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,180 Then this is where I'm going to kill him. Then this is when I'm going to kill 168 00:12:25,180 --> 00:12:29,500 him. Now, who do you think is going to be at the where and when? 169 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,240 Two people. 170 00:12:31,540 --> 00:12:33,600 The chief and the guy was out to kill him. 171 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,300 That's an interesting theory, Mark, but it's still a theory. 172 00:12:37,700 --> 00:12:40,620 Well, like you say, you never know till you read tomorrow's paper. 173 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:48,440 Ironside. 174 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:51,200 Yes? Dennis. 175 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,100 Sprung a leak and the switchboard is burning up. 176 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,800 So far, we've got about 150 people who say they are the intended victim and 177 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:00,800 want police protection. 178 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,400 Situation is bad, Bob, and it could get worse, much worse. 179 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,520 These people who think they're the victims, Dennis, do we have their names 180 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,660 their phone numbers? We have been running the police department for a long 181 00:13:12,660 --> 00:13:17,060 now. You're beginning to get quite good at it. Thank you so much. Not at all. 182 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:18,700 Dennis, how about suspects? 183 00:13:19,950 --> 00:13:22,770 The ones these people think are planning to murder them. 184 00:13:23,010 --> 00:13:24,730 Oh, we've got quite an assortment there, too. 185 00:13:25,090 --> 00:13:26,390 Names, even some addresses. 186 00:13:27,230 --> 00:13:32,290 Disgruntled ex -employees, outraged husbands, casual acquaintances. 187 00:13:32,290 --> 00:13:33,290 some old grudge. 188 00:13:33,770 --> 00:13:36,710 Calls are still coming in. I was lucky to get an outside line to call you. 189 00:13:37,270 --> 00:13:38,970 All right, Dennis, I'll get back to you. 190 00:13:39,370 --> 00:13:40,390 But... Later, Dennis. 191 00:13:42,490 --> 00:13:44,770 We have to get a recording of this man's voice. 192 00:13:45,340 --> 00:13:49,000 First, there's a bare possibility we might get an identification from one of 193 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:54,460 these self -proclaimed victims. And second, I don't know which possibility 194 00:13:54,460 --> 00:13:55,460 the bare. 195 00:13:55,900 --> 00:13:59,940 But if he has a record, there might be a voice print of him somewhere which 196 00:13:59,940 --> 00:14:03,880 would identify him.
