The man's life may be in jeopardy.

He's up there!

Police? Yeah.

No. l'm okay. l've still got my gear.

He didn't get anything.

(GASPS)

l'll just be leaving.

Hold up. Look, look, what about calling the hospital.

Huh? l mean, you took a pretty bad hit there.

No. Same thing.

No police, no hospital.

Okay. All right.

Hey, thanks.

l... l...

(GROANlNG)

Come on, you gotta lie down. Look, my place is right upstairs.

lt's okay to use my room. Just come on and lie down for a minute, will you?

(PANTlNG)

Care to join me for some, uh, potluck?

You been on your own a long time?

Yup, long enough. More stew?

lt's been a while since...

Since l've been on my own.

But here l am. l'm back and...

A guy tries to steal my gear, really nice, huh?

Does that ever happen to you? l mean, somebody jumps you and stuff?

l always run first.

l run, too.

l used to run all the time. No more.

l'm gonna fight back now. From now on.

Violence doesn't usually work.

At least, not for me.

l find that it isn't worth it in the long run.

You said something about being back. ls this your hometown?

l once lived in this city. Dad works here. My old man.

A hard worker.

Makes his living off of other people's throwaways.

Things that he doesn't really want.

But he uses them, you know?

Like me.

He didn't really want me.

Not really.

So, l come back to pay the debt.

Debt?

Yeah, l...

Sorry.

l'm not used to talking so much.

Better get going.

You know what? l don't even know what your name is.

DAVlD: David Barnes.

l'm Jack.

l'm Jack Hewitt.

Hello, Jack.

l want you to take this for helping me in...

For bailing me out of the alley.

Not necessary.

Well, listen, uh...

Thanks, again.

Jack,

if you're in some kind of trouble...

No. No more than all of us are all the time.

Well, take care.

(DOOR CLOSES)

(SlGHS)

So, l come back to pay the debt.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO)

Hello.

Can l help you?

(PANTlNG)

Hey, um...

Excuse me, but what is it that you want?

l need your studio.

You need what?

(HAMMERlNG)

Who are you?

What is this? Are you with the police or something?

Uh, listen, l think you better leave.

l don't have the time or the inclination to play 20 Questions with you.

This is my place and you're trespassing.

l'm sorry, but l'm only gonna use your place till tomorrow afternoon.

Oh? l see. Just till tomorrow, eh? Oh, gee, that's terrific.

That's really great.

My cup runneth over. But l don't think that's gonna work out.

(GASPS)

Don't get too smart, okay?

lt's got nothing to do with you.

Just till tomorrow. That's all.

Look...

l have students coming, you know. l mean...

They're gonna be coming soon.

(STAMMERlNG) And their parents are gonna be bringing them.

Look, you don't have to lie.

There aren't any students. At least, not yet.

And l don't think anybody'll be dropping by.

That's 'cause your studio isn't even open yet.

And you're new in town, huh.

l talked to your janitor as he was leaving for the weekend.

You know, he doesn't like you. He thinks you play the music too loud.

Sit down, please?

Now,

just do as l say.

And if l don't do as you ask?

l guess l'm gonna have to hurt you.

l don't wanna do that.

There's only one person l want to hurt. Only one.

You understand?

Yes, sir. l understand.

You think that it was a rifle the young man had.

Get me a trace on line two.

Uh-huh. Well, sir, what was it that he was carrying the weapon in?

Uh, it was an instrument case. A musical instrument.

Uh... Trumpet, l think.

l see. A trumpet case.

Yes. He also had a lot of clippings.

And they referred to Harrison Cole

so then when l saw the paper this morning...

Well, keep talking, sir. l'm listening.

Uh... Sir? Sir? Are you still there?

There's just a couple of more questions.

Look, you know what l know.

The man's life may be in jeopardy.

l just hope that you can do something about it.

l figure he's white. 30 to 40.

Works in a restaurant or something.

A diner. l'd lay odds on a diner.

You know, dishes and stuff in the background...

Yeah. Yeah.

But Frank, you know how many greasy spoons there are in this town?

Well, we might get a trace. l think we outta run it down.

Yeah.

Yeah. You're right. We better.

But what about Harrison Cole?

We gonna tell Mr. Harrison Cole?

lt's not smart to make a big-shot sweat.

Not unless you know for sure he's got something to sweat about.

(DOOR CLlCKS)

(GASPS)

l told you,

l didn't wanna hurt you.

Would you mind making some coffee, please?

Yes, l'd mind!

Yes, l'd really mind you know,

because you're scaring the hell out of me.

l'm really scared because l don't know what's going to happen here.

Except that you're here to kill somebody

and l'm here so it might be me.

Oh, God.

(SOBBlNG)

No, no. l'm not going to cry.

l will not cry.

You know, you leave New York.

You try to get away from all the bad influence, you know, all the clutter.

You want to be clear.

Clarity is the answer.

(SlGHS)

You wanna get things straight.

Yes. lt's very important

to get things straight.

Why?

Why are you doing this?

He killed me.

(UNZlPPlNG)

(GASPlNG)

(COLE LAUGHlNG)

COLE: l like your approach, Mr. Barnes.

l really do.

You charge in here. Tell my secretary you must see me.

That it's a matter of life and death, you think.

Then you lay this cock and bull story on me about a brave young man.

A local boy who died fighting for his country in Vietnam.

And you tell me that you've seen him

and you think he might be here to assassinate me.

l didn't think that the police were going to tell you.

And l couldn't reach you on the telephone.

Yeah, we're talking about a dead man, Mr. Barnes.

He was a good man. He was a good Marine.

He was in my company. He was a squad leader.

ls this a joke?

ls this some kind of gag?

Who sent you here?

What the hell do you expect to gain by these tactics?

Who're you working for? Hmm?

Are you with Consolidated?

l thought that you needed help and that is why l came to warn you.

But, now that you tell me Jack Hewitt is dead...

Now that l tell you! Now that...

You knew when you walked in that door.

You wanted a rise out of me.

You wanted to start bargaining with me while l was down, right?

Mr. Cole, you're mistaken.

Well, l'm not down. l am up.

And l'm totally up on what you're doing.

Entering a government area, using false pretenses, false lD,

trying to coerce me in my own office!

Wait a minute! l just wanted to warn you! That was my only motive!

Wait a minute!

l was listening on the hookup.

He's a crank.

No problem, skipper.

No. No. No. Something's wrong.

He's a question mark. l'm not happy about that.

l wanna know who he is, what he really wants and who sent him.

He knows, Howard.

About Hewitt? l don't think...

He knows!

l'll find out.

l always found out before, didn't l, skipper?

That was then, in Nam. We weren't playing under normal rules.

Nothing changes, sir.

That's what l learned in Nam.

Nothing changes.

You're right, of course.

Well, you do what you have to do.

(DAVlD GRUNTlNG)

Neat, huh? Very sophisticated.

(GROANlNG)

CJX manufactures it for stress-testing alloys.

But l kinda adapted it for interrogation.

Listen to me.

lt pays to be prepared.

Will you please just listen to me.

lf l knew what you wanted, l would tell you.

Okay.

Why'd you come to Cole about Jack Hewitt?

Why'd you say you'd seen and talked to a dead man?

l told you, l met a man.

He said his name was Hewitt. Jack Hewitt. Now that...

Yes! Yes! That's not enough!

Don't... Don't do that anymore!

l'm not working for anybody, l only came here to warn Cole.

lt was Hewitt, he had a rifle. l was afraid he was gonna do a murder.

Hewitt is dead!

No, he's not! He's dead!

No! l know!

No! No, he's not! No, please don't.

(SCREAMlNG)

(HULK ROARS)

(ROARS)

All right, you varmints. Say your prayers, Jimmy the Kid's in town.

Y'all headed for a one way trip to Boothill.

Get ready to draw.

Never seen a green cowboy before.

You tried to sneak up on me from behind, huh, you yellow-bellied snake?

Draw, varmint!

(TOY GUN FlRES)

(BLOWS)

(BLOWlNG)

Mommy! Mommy!

(EXHALES)

Can l ask you something?

You said he killed you.

Listen, l might die tomorrow and l want to know why.

You won't die. l promise.

How can you promise anything?

You're the one that's gonna start it all, for God's sakes!

l wanna know why.

Maybe l could help.

Lance Corporal Jack Hewitt.

Captain Harrison Cole.

They were in a war.

And there was a war going on between them, too.

Vietnam?

(CHUCKLES) Nam, yeah. Sunny Southeast Asia.

Going up against craziness.

Going up against it every day.

And pretty soon,

Lance Corporal Hewitt couldn't take it.

No more! l couldn't! And l told Harrison Cole!

Right out.

Right to his face, l told him!

One more time, just one more time you murder one of those dumb fools

and l'm gonna tell the whole world.

Cole believed me.

He believed me.

And he knew that when it happened again, l would talk.

Pretty soon, there was a patrol sent and it was a setup.

Nobody was coming back.

We were all zapped.

(SCOFFS)

lt's all in the bag. All written down. The whole story.

All the so-called reasons. All the insane stupidities.

And the name of the man responsible

for letting the murder multiply, Captain Harrison Cole.

But you said he killed you.

How?

You're really pretty, you know?

lt's... lt's really weird being with someone as pretty as you.

lt's been a long time since l've even seen anyone as pretty.

Jack, l still don't understand.

Justice.

l'm executing a murderer. The murderer of Jack Hewitt.

(SlGHS)

(KNOCKlNG ON DOOR)

What is it?

This is Detective Harnell, Mr. Barnes. Open up.

We wanna talk to you about Harrison Cole.

All right. What've l done?

Well, how's about filing a false police report?

Everything l told you on the phone was true.

l'm sure you didn't lose a night's sleep tracking me down to prove that it isn't.

Maybe we're insomniacs.

Am l under arrest or not?

All right, settle down. We'll talk. Check out your story.

Go on. Have a seat.

Now, l want you to go over everything this guy said to you.

Everything.

COLE: You let our prisoner escape, Howard.

Copping a plea about a giant green man just doesn't make it.

Whoever that guy was, he knows.

l don't know what his angle is,

l don't know whose axe he's grinding, but l want him found.

Put as many men on it as you can.

And l want maximum security this afternoon.

l'm gonna be up on that podium.

The Mayor and the Lieutenant Governor are going to be there.

l just don't want anything to go wrong.

Don't worry, Cosgrove will cover security.

l'll be out in the field looking for that Barnes creep.

Uh... You want the police in on this?

No. No.

We're going to do this ourselves. Just like before.

There's a lot of stake now, Howard. Politics, power.

l don't wanna take any chances.

(SlGHS)

Jack Hewitt will be back, Captain. l promise you. Jack Hewitt will be back.

Come on, Barnes, we've got four men

checking on all the Hewitt's in town.

And believe me, his old man's gonna be at the bottom of the list.

Now, you gotta help us out. Think.

There was something about, uh...

His father using...

Things that other people threw away, junk.

Maybe the junk business? That's where we begin.

We?

Yeah, we. You're the only one who can lD this guy.

Hold it now.

You gents lRS or something?

Police. Are you Archer Hewitt?

Depends.

You wanna buy a hubcap?

We just wanna talk.

You wanna arrest me or something? Go ahead.

l pay my taxes.

Otherwise, you can go on and get yourselves outta here.

You're trespassing on CJX property, don't you know?

You work for Harrison Cole?

Well...

Let's put it this way.

He's the man who kept me going when things got rough.

He gave me money.

lnvestment, he said...

l know...

What's a big tycoon like him want with a junkyard?

l think he just felt bad about Jack.

Jack? Tell us about Jack.

Killed. Died a hero over there

in that crazy war, don't you know?

Mr. Cole was poor Jack's boss, his commanding officer.

Came home and paid me money. Hard cash.

l guess it made him feel better

since Jack was sort of his responsibility and all, see?

There's poor Jack.

Right there.

The one on the right. A real hero.

No. No. No, the one on the left.

Huh?

The left.

That's my other boy, Doug.

He left home when Jack died for our country.

Where'd he go?

None of your business.

Mr. Hewitt, just tell us about Doug, then we'll be gone.

Doug tried to join up with Jack, but they wouldn't take him.

Bum shoulder, you know?

First Hewitt in eight generations that didn't serve his country.

So he just had to stay home and read Jack's letters.

Every week, like clockwork, there'd be a letter,

and Doug...

Well, he was living it, right along with Jack.

And...

Well, it tore him up when Jack was killed.

As if he had been killed?

That's it.

That's right.

Well, anyway, he got took away.

He started talking crazy and all.

And doing crazy things.

So they took him away.

Away?

The boy's been up in the State hospital for the last six years.

(SOFTLY) Jack.

Jack?

You don't have to do this, you know?

lt's not too late to stop it.

You can still walk away.

We can walk away.

No.

l'm dead. No, you're not.

You're alive.

l'm alive.

And l don't wanna see you hurt yourself.

(SCOFFS)

l know it sounds crazy. You know, l mean...

You're up here in my studio

to kill a man, but l don't want to see you hurt yourself.

lt's all so crazy.

l like you.

Leave with me.

NOLAN ON PA: Testing, 0ne, tw0, three, f0ur.

You hear me all right back there? Okay.

ls this all set up? This is the way it's going to be?

l won't be in your way if l practice my speech?

Gremmler, see that window up there by the yellow sign?

See if you can get a spot up there. You'll have to go around here.

Testing, 0ne, tw0, three.

lt's for real. This is our man. Hmm.

l notified the CJX people, they're on alert.

(KNOCKlNG ON DOOR)

(WHlSPERS) Not a word.

NOLAN.: Today we are here t0 h0n0r this state's fav0rite s0n.

A man we sh0uld all be pr0ud 0f.

A her0 wh0...

A hero who did his state pr0ud during America's battle

with the C0mmunist insurgents 0f S0utheast Asia.

Is it t00 l0ud?

(PEOPLE EXCLAlMlNG)

Stay in the car until it starts.

l want the area secure.

Did you put a man up there?

Yeah. Uh, Gremmler, this is Harnell. You in position?

Yeah, he's there.

NOLAN: Mr. Cole! Mr. Cole!

Gee, you're early. l wasn't...

Oh, Dennis Nolan, Junior Chamber of Commerce.

l was just practicing the speech, sir.

Did you... How do you like it?

Oh, it's fine.

Hello, how are you?

lf you wanna come right up and...

Thank you.

lt's gonna be wonderful.

Hello. Hello.

Jack! Don't! Don't!

Get down! Get down!

He's got a gun!

(CROWD SCREAMlNG)

(GRUNTlNG)

Please, Jack! Please!

LlSA: Don't you see you're becoming just like him?

No! Stop!

No!

He's up there! He's up there! Get him! Get him!

Everybody get down!

(GUN FlRES)

(ROARS)

Jack, please. Jack, please. You don't have to do this.

LlSA: Jack, please.

lt isn't the way.

Violence doesn't usually work.

l find that it isn't worth it in the long run.

Jack, this isn't the way.

(SlRENS WAlLlNG)

No, don't shoot!

(CROWD CLAMORlNG)

(PANTlNG)

l'm all right.

(SOBBlNG)

LlSA: These are your weapons.

Hold it, police!

Take care of Gremmler. Come on.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

Get his gun.

lt's my brother.

(SNlFFlNG) Not me.

He wrote it all down.

lt's all there. Other guys signed it, too.

lt's all right, Doug. We'll check it out.

Take him down.

lt's okay. lt's okay. You're alive. You're alive.

Yeah.

(SlGHS)

Okay.

(SlGHS)

That's fine. l appreciate it.

Least l can do.

l had a hunch about your call.

Anything new with Hewitt?

Oh, back in the hospital.

His doctor says the outlook is good.

They call it, ''acting out his psychosis.''

lt took a lot of pressure off him.

Give him my best. l sure will.

l really hand it to that girl. She really hung in there.

As far as Cole is concerned, the guy's finished.

His company. Politics.

The Marine Corps is investigating Jack Hewitt's letter.

lt's the last one Doug got.

lt's been with him all this time in the hospital.

No one ever saw it.

But now the story is opening up all the way.

Thanks again, David.

You know, l bet your story would be just as interesting if it was ever opened up.

(CHUCKLES) l doubt it.

Oh! lt's just a cop's hunch.

Take care, my friend.

Thank you.
