1
00:00:18,730 --> 00:00:22,410
Barnaby Jones, starring Buddy Ebsen.

2
00:00:23,190 --> 00:00:29,370
Also starring Lee Meriwether, with guest
stars Monty Markham,

3
00:00:29,530 --> 00:00:35,789
Catherine Justice, Lyndon

4
00:00:35,790 --> 00:00:36,840
Childs.

5
00:00:38,650 --> 00:00:42,110
Tonight's episode, Doomed Alibi.

6
00:00:56,871 --> 00:01:00,519
Anyway, there it was. It was pitch
black.

7
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,159
The fellow was way up at the top of the
tree. Couldn't even see his hair out of

8
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,979
his face. All of a sudden, the limb let
go, and there it is. Hit the ground,

9
00:01:05,980 --> 00:01:06,959
flat like a rock.

10
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:09,239
Then all the dogs jumped on him, except
old Lou.

11
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,140
George. And then old Lou jumped on him.
Isn't that Vince Barrett? I think it is.

12
00:01:13,380 --> 00:01:15,920
Oh, Henry. Hey, this is fantastic.

13
00:01:16,220 --> 00:01:18,810
There you go, girls. Dig in. Come on,
just dig in. Dig in.

14
00:01:18,811 --> 00:01:21,339
Oh, Henry, that's just what the man
ordered.

15
00:01:21,340 --> 00:01:24,859
George, do you think he'd take a picture
with us? Oh, now, Irma, let's not

16
00:01:24,860 --> 00:01:26,320
bother. Oh, come on, George.

17
00:01:26,660 --> 00:01:29,340
That's the first movie star I've ever
seen.

18
00:01:29,580 --> 00:01:30,630
Come on, George.

19
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:36,959
Just keep all the wine and the food
flowing, Henry. As the man said, we pass

20
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:38,080
this wave at once.

21
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,420
Mr. Barrett? Yes. Mr. Barrett? Mr.

22
00:01:40,421 --> 00:01:41,939
Barrett? George Anderson.

23
00:01:41,940 --> 00:01:42,919
Duluth, Minnesota.

24
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,179
Well, I'm pleased to meet you, Mr.
Anderson. Henry, would you pour some

25
00:01:45,180 --> 00:01:46,199
champagne for the ladies?

26
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,120
Oh, this here's my wife, Irma. Miss
Anderson, my pleasure.

27
00:01:49,580 --> 00:01:52,760
Oh, George and I never missed one of
your television shows.

28
00:01:53,060 --> 00:01:56,980
Well, thank you. Comanche Sun, Flaming
Desert, Slinging Lead.

29
00:01:57,660 --> 00:02:02,439
Well, you folks are mighty kind, but you
sure are going back a few years. I've

30
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,399
been out of the show business for some
time now, and I'm just an ordinary

31
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,580
businessman today. Oh, not in our eyes,
Mr. Barrett.

32
00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:12,310
You're still one of our favorite Western
stars.

33
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,139
Well, thank you, Miss Anderson. Mr.
Barrett, any chance of you taking a

34
00:02:16,140 --> 00:02:17,119
with me and the wife?

35
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,479
Best chance in the world, Mr. Anderson.
It'd be my pleasure.

36
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,439
Rita, it is Rita, honey. Grab that old
camera and just snap a picture of me and

37
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:23,680
these fine folks. Oh, Mr.

38
00:02:23,900 --> 00:02:27,939
Barrett, thank you so much. No, no, it's
my pleasure. Do it all the time. Love

39
00:02:27,940 --> 00:02:29,399
it, love it. Oh, I'm so thrilled.

40
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:30,119
You ready?

41
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:31,170
Okay. Okay.

42
00:02:41,140 --> 00:02:42,190
Well, that's him.

43
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,340
Pretty free with that pencil, isn't it?

44
00:02:46,700 --> 00:02:47,750
Why not?

45
00:02:47,900 --> 00:02:49,260
It's my signature, not his.

46
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,760
What did you say his name is again?

47
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,160
Hatfield. Rick Hatfield.

48
00:02:56,460 --> 00:02:59,820
Local disc jockey. Some little burg up
in the San Joaquin Valley.

49
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,260
Santa Carlita, I believe.

50
00:03:05,500 --> 00:03:07,000
You want me to call the police?

51
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:09,090
No.

52
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,200
No. He's already done that three times.
I think we should call the police.

53
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:14,570
No, not just yet.

54
00:03:22,260 --> 00:03:23,880
Shirley. There he is, sweetheart.

55
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,810
I suppose you find out just how good an
impersonation that fella does of me.

56
00:03:28,811 --> 00:03:33,379
Vince, I don't like doing this sort of
thing. Honey, he's the reason I settled

57
00:03:33,380 --> 00:03:34,580
you in here. Just be nice.

58
00:03:35,420 --> 00:03:39,759
Just how nice am I supposed to be to
him? Nice enough to find out what I want

59
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:40,810
know.

60
00:03:41,780 --> 00:03:42,830
Go on.

61
00:03:53,521 --> 00:03:55,229
There you go.

62
00:03:55,230 --> 00:03:57,109
Oh, you need some more, Miss Anderson,
huh?

63
00:03:57,110 --> 00:03:59,830
She's a devil, I tell you. Oh, Minnesota
girl.

64
00:04:01,690 --> 00:04:02,740
Well, well, well.

65
00:04:03,110 --> 00:04:06,270
Aren't you Vince Barrett, the motion
picture and TV star?

66
00:04:07,170 --> 00:04:11,069
Yes, ma 'am, but if that don't please
you, I'll be glad to change myself into

67
00:04:11,070 --> 00:04:12,450
Snow White and Seven Dwarfs.

68
00:04:17,709 --> 00:04:18,759
Yes, sir.

69
00:04:20,050 --> 00:04:21,769
He might just come in real handy.

70
00:05:02,690 --> 00:05:03,740
Good evening, Ted.

71
00:05:03,890 --> 00:05:05,110
Well, it wasn't till now.

72
00:05:05,111 --> 00:05:07,249
Where's your house, man?

73
00:05:07,250 --> 00:05:09,209
I gave him the night off. What is it,
Barrett?

74
00:05:09,210 --> 00:05:12,749
I thought I made it clear. We have
nothing further to talk about. Ah, Ted,

75
00:05:12,750 --> 00:05:15,160
listen to me, will you? Just give me ten
minutes.

76
00:05:15,430 --> 00:05:16,630
I'll do better than that.

77
00:05:16,631 --> 00:05:19,249
I'm going to speak to it. You've got
twenty years.

78
00:05:19,250 --> 00:05:20,029
Ah, Ted.

79
00:05:20,030 --> 00:05:21,710
You've stolen from me long enough.

80
00:05:21,711 --> 00:05:25,389
I'm having the company's books audited,
and when they're finished, so are you.

81
00:05:25,390 --> 00:05:26,470
Now, if you don't mind.

82
00:05:27,550 --> 00:05:28,600
Ted!

83
00:05:29,930 --> 00:05:32,340
Now, come on, Ted. You've got to listen
to reason.

84
00:05:32,750 --> 00:05:36,870
I got into some bad investments. I just,
I got in over my head.

85
00:05:36,871 --> 00:05:40,509
You're not only a lousy crook, you're a
rotten businessman as well.

86
00:05:40,510 --> 00:05:42,230
Damn it, man, I'm your partner.

87
00:05:42,550 --> 00:05:44,230
Ex -partner when the audit's done.

88
00:05:44,970 --> 00:05:47,030
And you're also an ex -cowboy star.

89
00:05:47,031 --> 00:05:51,329
Maybe with a little time off for good
behavior, in ten years you'll be an ex

90
00:05:51,330 --> 00:05:53,170
-con. You can't do that.

91
00:05:53,590 --> 00:05:54,890
You just watch me.

92
00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:57,290
If I were you, I'd get a good lawyer and
fast.

93
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,400
Mr. Jones, I'm sorry I'm late.

94
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,680
That's all right. You must be Chris.

95
00:07:42,620 --> 00:07:43,900
Great view you have here.

96
00:07:44,100 --> 00:07:45,150
Oh, yeah.

97
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,760
My father used to love this place. He
spent as much time down here as he

98
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,600
Nobody can fault him for that.

99
00:07:52,740 --> 00:07:56,020
Say, you mind taking a walk on the beach
while we're talking?

100
00:07:56,021 --> 00:07:59,039
Not if you don't mind getting a little
sand in your shoes.

101
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,090
Not at all.

102
00:08:10,420 --> 00:08:12,980
Relaxing. Sound of the surf, pounding on
the beach.

103
00:08:13,940 --> 00:08:18,900
I guess, uh, make it difficult to be
heard if you're out there yelling for

104
00:08:18,901 --> 00:08:22,839
You mean that's why none of the
neighbors heard my father call for help?

105
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,340
wrong, Mr. Jones. There was none.

106
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,900
According to the police report... Hang
the police report, Mr. Jones.

107
00:08:27,901 --> 00:08:31,639
My father's death was no accident. He
was an excellent swimmer. And more

108
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,999
importantly, he had a very hard, fast
rule about anybody swimming alone, even

109
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,050
himself.

110
00:08:36,159 --> 00:08:37,839
Rules are made to be broken, Chris.

111
00:08:39,260 --> 00:08:42,150
Years ago was brother David ground while
swimming alone.

112
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,540
Dad never got over that. Did you?

113
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:46,520
Yeah, I see what you mean.

114
00:08:47,340 --> 00:08:50,360
Did your father have lost this? I found
it up on the deck.

115
00:08:52,220 --> 00:08:53,780
Turquoise, isn't it? I think so.

116
00:08:54,460 --> 00:08:56,980
More like something Vince Barrett would
wear.

117
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,450
Vince Barrett?

118
00:08:58,451 --> 00:08:59,379
Cowboy actor?

119
00:08:59,380 --> 00:09:03,259
Yeah, he was a partner of Dad's in a
land development deal. He was down here

120
00:09:03,260 --> 00:09:04,640
couple of times on business.

121
00:09:05,620 --> 00:09:06,670
These floodlights.

122
00:09:07,500 --> 00:09:08,640
They work on a timer?

123
00:09:08,641 --> 00:09:11,779
Yeah, that was another one of Dad's
safety precautions.

124
00:09:11,780 --> 00:09:13,400
They come on at sundown every day.

125
00:09:14,020 --> 00:09:18,859
Now, I understand that the beach lights
were off when your father's houseman

126
00:09:18,860 --> 00:09:19,910
came home.

127
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,530
He didn't find his body till he turned
the beach lights on.

128
00:09:23,531 --> 00:09:26,579
Which would mean that my father would
have had to have turned those lights out

129
00:09:26,580 --> 00:09:28,220
and then gone into the surf alone.

130
00:09:28,820 --> 00:09:30,800
Now, surely you can't believe that, Joe.

131
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,160
Well, I don't know what I believe yet.

132
00:09:34,730 --> 00:09:37,440
But I just can't leave a question like
that in the dark.

133
00:09:55,190 --> 00:09:58,410
And that about wraps up KBEX's late
morning news.

134
00:09:58,690 --> 00:10:02,610
Now back to the Rick Hatfield Show and
some oldies of yesteryear.

135
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,420
As the old duke says, no song like an
old song, pilgrim.

136
00:10:13,031 --> 00:10:17,839
Hey, Marty, let me borrow your glasses,
will you?

137
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:18,899
I need him to read these commercials.

138
00:10:18,900 --> 00:10:21,919
Then you shouldn't have left your
glasses down in L .A. Come on, David.

139
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,199
seen that girl. You wouldn't blame me if
I'd forgotten my shoes.

140
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,060
Shoes? I'll loan you my glasses. I need.

141
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,519
Am I to understand? You would deprive a
man of his sight just because the beauty

142
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:36,419
of a young lady led him to mislead his
glasses. You forget. I checked your

143
00:10:36,420 --> 00:10:39,739
action. The chicks you take out, you're
better off without glasses. Not this

144
00:10:39,740 --> 00:10:40,419
one, Marty.

145
00:10:40,420 --> 00:10:44,539
Sensational figure, low, sexy voice, and
a face that would make Da Vinci wig

146
00:10:44,540 --> 00:10:46,859
out. Yeah, sounds like you're the one
wigged out.

147
00:10:46,860 --> 00:10:51,400
Leg down, turned on, and torn up. Well,
I suggest you gather yourself together.

148
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,700
That record ends in five seconds.

149
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,920
Yes, sir. Yes, sir. What we said.

150
00:10:57,180 --> 00:11:01,620
Show me a man who likes an old song, and
I'll show you an old man. Yes, yes.

151
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,759
And if you'd like to see an old man
who'd like to see you, get yourself down

152
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:10,900
Crazy Ed Hayes. He's got so many
recreational vehicles on that lot of

153
00:11:35,560 --> 00:11:39,739
Hi, I'm Barnaby Jones. Oh, Mr. Jones,
come on in. I'm Ben Russell, defense

154
00:11:39,740 --> 00:11:40,539
barrack attorney.

155
00:11:40,540 --> 00:11:41,590
Thank you.

156
00:11:47,460 --> 00:11:52,340
Ben? This is Barnaby Jones, a private
investigator who called.

157
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:53,930
Ah, detective.

158
00:11:53,931 --> 00:11:57,899
You're one of them fellas that herded me
and Wyatt and Bat and the rest of them

159
00:11:57,900 --> 00:11:58,950
right on off the tube.

160
00:11:59,740 --> 00:12:03,020
Well, I wish my work were as easy as
television shows make it look.

161
00:12:03,021 --> 00:12:06,479
Well, sit down, Mr. Jones, and tell us
how we can help lighten the load for

162
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:07,530
Thank you.

163
00:12:10,060 --> 00:12:12,940
Chris Mason asked me to look into the
death of his father.

164
00:12:13,780 --> 00:12:15,580
I thought you might be able to help me.

165
00:12:16,220 --> 00:12:17,270
Poor Ted.

166
00:12:17,460 --> 00:12:21,400
I not only lost a good partner, Mr.
Jones, I lost a dear friend.

167
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,660
I'm glad to do whatever I can.

168
00:12:24,540 --> 00:12:28,580
Did Mr. Mason have any setbacks
recently? Any emotional upset?

169
00:12:29,560 --> 00:12:31,060
Ted Mason take his own life?

170
00:12:31,061 --> 00:12:34,259
You're barking up the wrong tree, Mr.
Jones.

171
00:12:34,260 --> 00:12:37,750
There's always a possibility that Ted
might have committed suicide.

172
00:12:37,940 --> 00:12:39,880
Suicide? Ted wasn't that kind of man.

173
00:12:40,580 --> 00:12:42,260
Yeah, that's the way his son feels.

174
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:43,960
Did he have any enemies?

175
00:12:44,700 --> 00:12:48,580
What man doesn't have a few, but none
who'd do him in.

176
00:12:49,580 --> 00:12:53,520
Now, Mr. Jones, on the face of it, I'm
afraid I'd have to agree with the

177
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,260
It had to be an accident.

178
00:12:56,500 --> 00:13:00,859
Well, it's not the first time I wind up
chasing my shadow around the rain

179
00:13:00,860 --> 00:13:01,910
barrel.

180
00:13:01,911 --> 00:13:07,799
I found this on the Mason house, and
Chris thought it might belong to you.

181
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:08,850
I'll say it does.

182
00:13:09,420 --> 00:13:10,800
It came out of my hat band.

183
00:13:10,801 --> 00:13:14,359
Probably lost it on Saturday night?

184
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,359
No, it's been two weeks or more. I've
been turning this place upside down

185
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:18,410
looking for it.

186
00:13:18,411 --> 00:13:21,519
And you weren't out at the Mason house
over the weekend?

187
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,650
No, I spent the weekend at the Parker's
Hotel up in Los Angeles.

188
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,720
I do appreciate your finding this stone
for me.

189
00:13:29,020 --> 00:13:31,720
As Max said, I couldn't replace it.

190
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,420
Any more questions, Mr. Jones?

191
00:13:36,220 --> 00:13:42,359
No, I don't think so. Now, if I do have
any, I'll give you a call. Thank you. My

192
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:43,410
pleasure.

193
00:13:47,060 --> 00:13:48,660
I don't like it, not one bit.

194
00:13:49,300 --> 00:13:50,740
Don't get yourself worked up.

195
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,660
The night Ted Mason died, you were at
the Parkhurst Hotel.

196
00:13:55,060 --> 00:13:56,110
Mm -hmm.

197
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,200
And suppose Jones finds that fellow who
was really there.

198
00:14:00,620 --> 00:14:03,690
I think maybe it's time I paid a call on
our disc jockey friend.

199
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:09,079
As your attorney, if I explain to him
we're going to press charges, I think

200
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,190
maybe he might be persuaded to
cooperate.

201
00:14:14,500 --> 00:14:16,970
Man should always consult with his
lawyer first.

202
00:14:17,260 --> 00:14:19,370
Saves a lot of wear and tear in the long
run.

203
00:14:53,910 --> 00:14:54,960
Hello.

204
00:14:55,650 --> 00:14:57,550
Shirley? Guess who?

205
00:14:59,370 --> 00:15:02,230
Well, Vince Barrett of all people.

206
00:15:03,790 --> 00:15:05,030
Hatfield, what do I do?

207
00:15:06,130 --> 00:15:07,180
Blame along.

208
00:15:08,070 --> 00:15:09,790
How did you get this number?

209
00:15:10,410 --> 00:15:11,850
From your answering service.

210
00:15:12,490 --> 00:15:14,660
Celebrities do have privileges, you
know.

211
00:15:16,150 --> 00:15:19,350
Well, it's awfully sweet of you to call,
Vince.

212
00:15:19,981 --> 00:15:22,079
That's, uh...

213
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:26,199
Although if you're at notice, I know,
but... Well, I sure would like to see

214
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:27,250
again.

215
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:29,820
He wants to see me again.

216
00:15:30,300 --> 00:15:31,800
I told you he'd be a problem.

217
00:15:32,940 --> 00:15:33,990
Tonight?

218
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,740
Tell him you'd like nothing better.

219
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:37,240
I'd love to, Vince.

220
00:15:37,241 --> 00:15:41,079
What do you think? He's got the phone
number here. What happens if he connects

221
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,219
you to Shirley? That could be real
trouble. Ben, we got the company now.

222
00:15:44,220 --> 00:15:45,780
an awful lot at stake. I know that.

223
00:15:47,140 --> 00:15:48,190
Can you handle him?

224
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,440
Looks like I'll have to, doesn't it?

225
00:15:52,130 --> 00:15:53,180
Permanently.

226
00:16:03,610 --> 00:16:07,369
You have to understand, Mr. Jones, we
get a lot of celebrities here with all

227
00:16:07,370 --> 00:16:09,050
fans and groupies hanging around.

228
00:16:09,051 --> 00:16:11,869
Privacy is the watchword of our
establishment.

229
00:16:11,870 --> 00:16:12,920
Yeah, with me too.

230
00:16:13,010 --> 00:16:14,390
I'm a private investigator.

231
00:16:15,050 --> 00:16:17,670
Well, we sure get a lot of fellows like
you too.

232
00:16:18,130 --> 00:16:19,180
Bad for business.

233
00:16:19,430 --> 00:16:21,290
Maybe I can help you with the overhead.

234
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,440
Vince Barrett, Saturday night.

235
00:16:24,441 --> 00:16:28,399
Spent the entire evening in his suite,
private party, left to wake up, call at

236
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:33,440
the desk at 1 .30. Now, hold on. That
blew by so fast, I just got the breeze.

237
00:16:33,441 --> 00:16:34,739
Let's see.

238
00:16:34,740 --> 00:16:37,879
There were the Andersons, a middle -aged
couple that Barrett picked up by the

239
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,480
pool, and a sharp -looking chick,
Shirley. I didn't get the last name.

240
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:42,940
You still in the hotel?

241
00:16:43,260 --> 00:16:47,719
The Andersons made reservations at
Valhalla in Apple Valley. I didn't about

242
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:48,770
chick.

243
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:50,980
Or the guy who left the glasses.

244
00:16:50,981 --> 00:16:55,399
Glasses? Housekeeper found a pair of
men's glasses in the room after Barrett

245
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:56,339
checked out.

246
00:16:56,340 --> 00:17:00,119
They didn't belong to Mr. Anderson. I
called Barrett's office. His secretary

247
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,780
said he didn't wear glasses.
Interesting.

248
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,260
Now, hold on just a minute. Don't tell
me. Let me guess.

249
00:17:06,261 --> 00:17:10,799
You are in charge of the lost and found
department and the glasses are in your

250
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,380
possession. You've got it.

251
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:18,220
If private eyes are bad for business,
I'll bet you never see a recession.

252
00:17:49,350 --> 00:17:53,309
If that fellow who painted the Mona Lisa
could see you right now, he'd have to

253
00:17:53,310 --> 00:17:54,930
tear it up and start from scratch.

254
00:17:55,810 --> 00:17:59,610
You could turn a girl's head, Mr.
Barrett. Oh, Ben, Johnny, same as

255
00:18:00,130 --> 00:18:02,050
We Barretts don't stand on ceremony.

256
00:18:02,051 --> 00:18:04,309
Well, it looks like you came prepared
for one.

257
00:18:04,310 --> 00:18:06,660
Flowers for now, a little champagne for
later.

258
00:18:06,661 --> 00:18:10,569
My daddy always said if you can't win a
lady's heart between those two, you

259
00:18:10,570 --> 00:18:12,070
don't deserve the family name.

260
00:18:12,071 --> 00:18:14,889
Do you mind if we use up a little bit of
your sparkling water?

261
00:18:14,890 --> 00:18:18,750
No. My mama used to say, give cut
flowers a taste of the bubbling.

262
00:18:19,370 --> 00:18:22,410
Keeps her color fresh and bright for a
long, long time.

263
00:18:22,970 --> 00:18:24,370
Sounds like you have plans.

264
00:18:24,830 --> 00:18:26,510
All completely honorable, ma 'am.

265
00:18:27,390 --> 00:18:28,440
I assure you.

266
00:18:28,890 --> 00:18:29,940
Code of the West.

267
00:18:30,230 --> 00:18:32,340
Does the Code of the West include a
stake?

268
00:18:32,490 --> 00:18:33,540
I'm starved.

269
00:18:34,430 --> 00:18:35,480
Where are we going?

270
00:18:35,910 --> 00:18:38,260
Well, now, that does present a bit of a
problem.

271
00:18:38,670 --> 00:18:42,730
Much as I want to show you off to the
world, I want to keep you all to myself,

272
00:18:42,890 --> 00:18:43,940
too.

273
00:18:45,050 --> 00:18:46,210
I know just the place.

274
00:18:47,350 --> 00:18:49,090
Ferguson's at the beach. It's small.

275
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:54,239
Quiet and dark enough that no one can
tell the famous Vince Barrett from

276
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,880
Mouse. Oh, I like your thinking, gal.

277
00:18:58,060 --> 00:18:59,640
I like your thinking.

278
00:19:22,740 --> 00:19:26,919
No, sir, Mr. Jones, we wouldn't forget
these glasses, would we, Irma? Oh, dear

279
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:27,759
me, no.

280
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,650
That was the most exciting evening of
our whole vacation.

281
00:19:31,020 --> 00:19:34,819
The dinner you had with Mr. Barrett? I
can't wait to tell my bridge club that

282
00:19:34,820 --> 00:19:36,500
had dinner with a real movie star.

283
00:19:37,740 --> 00:19:41,660
And by the time her bridge club gets
through with it, it won't be just a

284
00:19:41,661 --> 00:19:45,799
Irma will have had a screen test, and
I'll have had an affair with some young

285
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:46,850
Hollywood starlet.

286
00:19:47,300 --> 00:19:48,350
George!

287
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,080
Who else was at the dinner?

288
00:19:50,330 --> 00:19:52,270
Oh, just the most precious young lady.

289
00:19:52,470 --> 00:19:56,470
Mr. Barrett met her by the pool, and I
think she was quite taken with him.

290
00:19:57,130 --> 00:20:00,870
You know, I'm certain that we have a
snapshot of her here somewhere.

291
00:20:01,310 --> 00:20:02,360
Let me look.

292
00:20:04,470 --> 00:20:06,210
And who did wear the glasses?

293
00:20:06,211 --> 00:20:07,469
Oh, Vince.

294
00:20:07,470 --> 00:20:10,240
Mr. Barrett, of course. But only when he
signed the check.

295
00:20:10,241 --> 00:20:13,669
Well, I understood Mr. Barrett didn't
wear glasses.

296
00:20:13,670 --> 00:20:17,330
Well, being a Hollywood movie star and
all, a fellow's got to keep up his

297
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:22,039
You don't exactly picture a Western
gunfighter wearing a pair of specs now,

298
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,720
you? Here we are.

299
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,250
Shirley and Vince make a handsome
couple, don't you think?

300
00:20:27,500 --> 00:20:28,550
Shirley.

301
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,000
You didn't have to catch her last name.

302
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,360
Uh, gee, I don't remember.

303
00:20:33,660 --> 00:20:34,710
Do you, Irma?

304
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,060
No, but then it was very informal.

305
00:20:37,580 --> 00:20:40,120
Like we were all very old friends.

306
00:20:41,220 --> 00:20:46,820
Uh, this picture of you with Mr.
Baird...

307
00:20:46,821 --> 00:20:48,299
The pool.

308
00:20:48,300 --> 00:20:49,740
That was taken before dinner.

309
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:50,810
Right after we met.

310
00:20:50,811 --> 00:20:54,559
Like Irma says, we were together from
then right on through the whole evening.

311
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:55,640
Mind if I borrow this?

312
00:20:55,641 --> 00:20:58,279
What do you want a picture of us for?

313
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,479
I promised to return it, and along with
it, I promised to give you an

314
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:03,530
enlargement.

315
00:21:03,740 --> 00:21:04,790
Eight by ten?

316
00:21:04,820 --> 00:21:05,870
You can depend on it.

317
00:21:06,580 --> 00:21:08,040
That's very nice, George.

318
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,539
All right. Thank you very much. You
enjoy your vacation, and I'll get this

319
00:21:12,540 --> 00:21:13,590
to you tomorrow.

320
00:21:13,780 --> 00:21:14,830
Bye -bye. Bye.

321
00:21:17,110 --> 00:21:18,160
Bye. Bye.

322
00:21:24,090 --> 00:21:25,410
You know something, Irma?

323
00:21:26,790 --> 00:21:29,630
He didn't even say what he wanted the
picture for.

324
00:21:59,679 --> 00:22:00,729
Yes, isn't it?

325
00:22:03,140 --> 00:22:04,520
Doesn't hold a candle to you.

326
00:22:05,580 --> 00:22:06,630
Careful.

327
00:22:07,260 --> 00:22:10,330
Flattery has taken a lot of men further
than they wanted to go.

328
00:22:10,740 --> 00:22:11,790
That's true.

329
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:17,020
To me, you're just about the prettiest
thing I ever laid eyes on.

330
00:22:18,900 --> 00:22:21,500
The way you talk, the way you move.

331
00:22:22,940 --> 00:22:27,579
Oh, the truth is, I was kind of
surprised when you took me up on my

332
00:22:27,580 --> 00:22:28,489
out tonight.

333
00:22:28,490 --> 00:22:31,260
Well, that doesn't sound like the Vince
Barrett I know.

334
00:22:32,850 --> 00:22:34,950
Well, I suppose I wasn't Vince Barrett.

335
00:22:35,470 --> 00:22:39,290
Not rich and famous, but just an
ordinary guy.

336
00:22:40,390 --> 00:22:41,830
How'd you feel about me then?

337
00:22:43,710 --> 00:22:47,350
How would you feel about me if I weren't
as pretty as you say?

338
00:22:50,050 --> 00:22:55,230
Now that I know you, I feel exactly the
same way.

339
00:22:59,399 --> 00:23:00,700
Truly. Don't say any more.

340
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,590
That's the sweetest thing anyone's ever
said to me.

341
00:23:27,980 --> 00:23:29,180
How about we take a walk?

342
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:34,210
Yeah, okay.

343
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,200
I think I should have worn my saw.

344
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,219
Oh, here, take this. No, no, no. I've
got my bag in the car. Well, I'll get it

345
00:24:07,220 --> 00:24:09,899
for you. No, no, no, no, no. Don't be
silly. I'll get it. It's only taking a

346
00:24:09,900 --> 00:24:10,950
second. Okay.

347
00:25:07,070 --> 00:25:08,120
Shirley.

348
00:25:09,490 --> 00:25:12,270
Oh, am I ever glad to see you.

349
00:25:13,330 --> 00:25:16,160
I've been waiting out there on that
stairwell all night.

350
00:25:16,410 --> 00:25:17,460
It's shot.

351
00:25:18,150 --> 00:25:19,590
No, no, it's okay.

352
00:25:19,850 --> 00:25:23,350
It's okay, I think. No, it's all right.
I'm okay.

353
00:25:23,830 --> 00:25:24,950
Take off your jacket.

354
00:25:25,610 --> 00:25:32,169
Man, I waited, and I waited. When you
didn't come back, I was afraid they'd

355
00:25:32,170 --> 00:25:33,570
gotten you too.

356
00:25:34,290 --> 00:25:35,340
Oh, I...

357
00:25:35,450 --> 00:25:37,130
Panicked when I heard the gunfire.

358
00:25:38,370 --> 00:25:41,869
I was afraid to come back to the
apartment, so I spent the night with a

359
00:25:41,870 --> 00:25:42,920
girlfriend.

360
00:25:43,450 --> 00:25:44,830
You didn't call the police?

361
00:25:45,310 --> 00:25:50,690
I started to, but I guess I'm a coward.

362
00:25:50,890 --> 00:25:52,350
I was afraid to get involved.

363
00:25:54,210 --> 00:25:55,590
Did you call them?

364
00:25:57,850 --> 00:26:00,010
No, I couldn't.

365
00:26:01,430 --> 00:26:03,550
Even after someone tried to kill you?

366
00:26:06,700 --> 00:26:08,750
There's a reason I can't go to the
police.

367
00:26:11,980 --> 00:26:15,660
I'm a fake, Shirley. I'm a complete
phony.

368
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:18,010
I don't understand.

369
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,720
I'm not Vince Barrett.

370
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:24,680
I... I've never even met the man.

371
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:26,130
What?

372
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:33,700
I just look like him and I do a very
good impression of Barrett.

373
00:26:33,940 --> 00:26:35,080
Then who are you?

374
00:26:35,790 --> 00:26:37,130
Rick Hatfield, my boy.

375
00:26:38,890 --> 00:26:41,750
Small town disc jockey from Santa
Colita.

376
00:26:42,990 --> 00:26:47,170
Closest I've ever been to a movie is to
buy a ticket.

377
00:26:48,450 --> 00:26:51,890
So then this whole thing was just a
game.

378
00:26:53,830 --> 00:26:54,880
Was.

379
00:26:56,430 --> 00:26:57,480
Till I met you.

380
00:27:02,150 --> 00:27:04,450
I tried to tell you last night, but...

381
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,170
Why do you think someone tried to kill
you?

382
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,520
Well, it wasn't me they were after.

383
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:15,200
They thought I was Barrett.

384
00:27:17,140 --> 00:27:21,579
Don't you see? That's... That's why I
have to do something. I mean...

385
00:27:21,580 --> 00:27:28,539
When they find out Barrett's still
alive, they'll... They

386
00:27:28,540 --> 00:27:29,590
might try again.

387
00:27:32,220 --> 00:27:33,420
Barrett has to be warned.

388
00:27:43,090 --> 00:27:47,130
Um, I'll take it in the bedroom. Why
don't you try to get some rest?

389
00:27:47,530 --> 00:27:48,630
We'll find a way.

390
00:27:58,230 --> 00:28:00,350
Hello. Cheryl, we got trouble.

391
00:28:00,850 --> 00:28:04,230
Ben can't be sure he finished that
business with our friend.

392
00:28:04,610 --> 00:28:08,910
Just in case, if he calls you... You
shouldn't have tried to kill him, Vince.

393
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,220
He did nothing to deserve that.

394
00:28:11,620 --> 00:28:13,600
Honey, I told you we had no choice.

395
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,840
But if he gets to the police... Don't
worry. Rick won't go to the police.

396
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,560
Well, now, honey, how do you know that?

397
00:28:20,740 --> 00:28:22,910
Vince, you know how I feel about this
thing.

398
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:30,759
What would you say if I told you that
Rick's all right and that he's not going

399
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:31,979
to cause you any trouble?

400
00:28:31,980 --> 00:28:35,659
How would you feel about it? Look, if
he's okay and we're in the clear, I'm

401
00:28:35,660 --> 00:28:37,160
most relieved man in the world.

402
00:28:37,360 --> 00:28:38,410
Vince...

403
00:28:39,340 --> 00:28:41,620
He believes someone was trying to kill
you.

404
00:28:42,460 --> 00:28:45,100
His first thought was to try to warn
you.

405
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:47,780
He's there now, isn't he?

406
00:28:49,340 --> 00:28:50,390
Yes.

407
00:28:50,740 --> 00:28:52,730
I'm not going to let you hurt him,
Vince.

408
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,600
I won't be a party to it.

409
00:28:54,920 --> 00:29:01,599
Okay, okay. Just bring him out here, and
I'll reward him for his help, and Ben

410
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,739
can caution him against any further
masquerades, and we're, well, we're home

411
00:29:05,740 --> 00:29:06,739
free.

412
00:29:06,740 --> 00:29:08,180
Don't lie to me, Vince.

413
00:29:08,181 --> 00:29:09,559
again.

414
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:10,620
Trust me, Cheryl.

415
00:29:11,380 --> 00:29:12,430
Trust me.

416
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:15,850
All right.

417
00:29:17,740 --> 00:29:20,480
But he's asleep now. It'll be a little
while.

418
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:22,370
Okay.

419
00:29:26,420 --> 00:29:28,280
You better not miss this time.

420
00:29:40,140 --> 00:29:41,660
I'm looking for Mr. Barrett.

421
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,140
I'm sorry he didn't come in today.
Perhaps I can help you.

422
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,220
I'm Dan Foreman, the controller.

423
00:29:47,660 --> 00:29:51,360
Yes, sir, you could help. I'm Barnaby
Jones, representing Chris Mason.

424
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:57,939
And he's worried about how the company
will make out now that his father is

425
00:29:57,940 --> 00:29:58,939
gone.

426
00:29:58,940 --> 00:30:00,260
That's right on the button.

427
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,450
Somebody else must have posed that
question.

428
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:09,000
Well, Mr. Barrett had anticipated some
of the investors might share that view.

429
00:30:09,740 --> 00:30:11,260
Well, uh, Mr.

430
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,240
Mason was top dog.

431
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:19,919
That suddenly might have been that, uh,
it was due to some hanky -panky in the

432
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:20,970
company, right?

433
00:30:21,140 --> 00:30:23,080
Not with Ted Mason running the show.

434
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,520
You can tell young Mason we're as solid
as a rock.

435
00:30:26,780 --> 00:30:31,959
And you anticipate that Mr. Barrett will
run the company along the policies that

436
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,010
Mr. Mason did?

437
00:30:34,060 --> 00:30:36,300
Well, no two men see eye to eye on
everything.

438
00:30:36,900 --> 00:30:37,950
For instance.

439
00:30:40,330 --> 00:30:46,290
Well, Mr. Mason had asked for a special
audit the week before the accident.

440
00:30:46,750 --> 00:30:48,010
Was the audit completed?

441
00:30:48,170 --> 00:30:49,220
It was never started.

442
00:30:49,770 --> 00:30:51,210
Mr. Barrett canceled it.

443
00:30:51,730 --> 00:30:52,780
Why?

444
00:30:53,650 --> 00:30:56,830
He didn't want to make the stockholders
nervous.

445
00:30:58,570 --> 00:30:59,620
That seems funny.

446
00:31:00,170 --> 00:31:03,180
Now these head chefs seem to me want to
know what's in the pot.

447
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,140
I read a little left to right break.

448
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,580
It's a little bit left to look up.

449
00:31:19,900 --> 00:31:21,340
We have a good eye, Mr. Jones.

450
00:31:21,341 --> 00:31:25,239
That's what brought me here. I want to
show you something and see if you see it

451
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:26,290
the same way I did.

452
00:31:27,460 --> 00:31:28,960
Yes, I remember a fine couple.

453
00:31:30,340 --> 00:31:32,900
That was taken the day your partner
died.

454
00:31:32,901 --> 00:31:35,339
As a matter of fact, I had dinner with
the Andersons that evening.

455
00:31:35,340 --> 00:31:38,359
What's the purpose of all these
questions, Mr. Jones? I thought we'd

456
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,150
the fact that Vince was at the Parkhurst
Hotel that day and all that evening.

457
00:31:42,180 --> 00:31:44,890
If it puzzles me, there was something
else there, too.

458
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:46,900
Look at this blow -up.

459
00:31:49,100 --> 00:31:53,339
Notice that the turquoise stone that I
found seems to be in place in your

460
00:31:53,340 --> 00:31:54,390
hatband.

461
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,680
If you lost that two weeks before then,
how do you explain it?

462
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,620
By George, I said you had a good eye.

463
00:32:02,621 --> 00:32:06,469
But I do recall I switched the band
around before the picture, so that empty

464
00:32:06,470 --> 00:32:07,520
wouldn't show.

465
00:32:08,830 --> 00:32:10,450
Now, why didn't that occur to me?

466
00:32:10,451 --> 00:32:13,509
Well, I guess with you detective
fellows, everything has to be checked

467
00:32:13,510 --> 00:32:14,950
right? Yeah, that's for sure.

468
00:32:14,951 --> 00:32:18,729
I've checked out about everything except
the name of the young lady that the

469
00:32:18,730 --> 00:32:21,080
Andersons said had dinner with you that
night.

470
00:32:21,150 --> 00:32:22,250
Shirley? Shirley.

471
00:32:22,730 --> 00:32:23,990
You recall her last name?

472
00:32:24,150 --> 00:32:25,200
Shirley Jennings.

473
00:32:25,510 --> 00:32:26,560
Charming young lady.

474
00:32:26,790 --> 00:32:30,210
If you like, I'd be glad to arrange for
you to meet her.

475
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,430
I got a call from the haystack. They
found the needle.

476
00:32:44,500 --> 00:32:47,200
Those glasses belong to a Rick Hatfield.

477
00:32:47,420 --> 00:32:49,740
He lives in Santa Carlita. Good work,
Betty.

478
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,060
I'll join you at the office in about an
hour.

479
00:32:53,420 --> 00:32:54,620
We'll drive up together.

480
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:56,250
Thank you.

481
00:32:56,860 --> 00:32:57,940
Thank you, gentlemen.

482
00:32:58,120 --> 00:32:59,560
No more questions, Mr. Jones?

483
00:33:00,020 --> 00:33:02,620
Oh, now I have to go match up some
answers.

484
00:33:02,980 --> 00:33:04,030
I'll find my way out.

485
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,100
Hey. Thanks. That must have been more
tired than I thought.

486
00:33:29,580 --> 00:33:32,650
You'll be happy to know that you don't
have to go to the police.

487
00:33:32,940 --> 00:33:35,260
I got in touch with Vince Barrett
himself.

488
00:33:36,620 --> 00:33:37,670
You did?

489
00:33:40,300 --> 00:33:41,860
How'd you get his phone number?

490
00:33:42,340 --> 00:33:44,510
A friend of mine used to work at the
studios.

491
00:33:45,820 --> 00:33:49,579
Finally, when I got in touch with Mr.
Barrett, I told him what happened. He

492
00:33:49,580 --> 00:33:50,920
wants to see you right away.

493
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:52,650
That's...

494
00:33:54,090 --> 00:33:55,140
That's great.

495
00:33:57,030 --> 00:33:58,310
What do you say about me?

496
00:33:58,730 --> 00:34:00,310
No, no. Don't worry.

497
00:34:01,010 --> 00:34:02,750
There's not going to be any trouble.

498
00:34:08,350 --> 00:34:12,789
And it's like I said, I want it clearly
understood that Miss Jennings had

499
00:34:12,790 --> 00:34:17,370
absolutely nothing to do with my
impersonation.

500
00:34:19,949 --> 00:34:22,610
I understand completely, Mr. Hatfield.

501
00:34:24,679 --> 00:34:25,879
Spoken like a gentleman.

502
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,559
Now, what's all this about somebody
wanting to kill me?

503
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,670
Well, it's like Shirley said on the
phone.

504
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,159
There I was pretending to be you, and
some guy took a shot at me.

505
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:37,819
Hmm.

506
00:34:37,820 --> 00:34:40,299
Don't you by any chance get a good look
at this, Bella?

507
00:34:40,300 --> 00:34:41,350
Man, did I ever.

508
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,980
I'll never forget that face.

509
00:34:44,300 --> 00:34:45,350
Mr.

510
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:49,859
Barrett, you, uh... You don't know how
much I appreciate the way you're taking

511
00:34:49,860 --> 00:34:50,910
this.

512
00:34:51,540 --> 00:34:53,239
I mean, I never expected to...

513
00:34:56,230 --> 00:34:58,220
Mr. Barrett, that man, the one out
there.

514
00:34:59,430 --> 00:35:00,480
He's the one.

515
00:35:01,010 --> 00:35:02,060
Are you sure?

516
00:35:02,690 --> 00:35:04,550
I told you, I'd know that guy anywhere.

517
00:35:06,190 --> 00:35:07,570
We'd better call the police.

518
00:35:12,830 --> 00:35:13,880
Wait a minute.

519
00:35:15,010 --> 00:35:16,810
Something else wrong, Mr. Hadfield?

520
00:35:18,790 --> 00:35:20,570
This telephone number is the...

521
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,060
The one I used to reach Shirley.

522
00:35:30,700 --> 00:35:33,320
Two and two do make four, don't they,
Mr. Hatfield?

523
00:35:42,500 --> 00:35:45,630
If you'd talked to Rick, you know this
wouldn't have happened.

524
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:48,620
Ben! Ben!

525
00:36:12,010 --> 00:36:16,209
You said you wouldn't hurt him, Vince.
You swore. He's only unconscious. He saw

526
00:36:16,210 --> 00:36:19,829
Ben and he went crazy. He grabbed my gun
and we fought over it. I told you you

527
00:36:19,830 --> 00:36:21,330
should have let me handle this.

528
00:36:23,010 --> 00:36:24,060
No!

529
00:36:24,190 --> 00:36:26,970
Get him out of here.

530
00:36:28,290 --> 00:36:31,000
Come on, come on, come on, baby. Keep
holding yourself.

531
00:36:31,230 --> 00:36:32,550
We're all in this together.

532
00:36:33,010 --> 00:36:35,230
It's going to be all right. Come on,
come on.

533
00:36:35,870 --> 00:36:39,540
Don't care. You just get yourself fixed
up. Give me time to do some thinking.

534
00:36:40,290 --> 00:36:41,550
It's going to be all right.

535
00:36:56,751 --> 00:37:03,819
All I know is if I didn't ask him to
make a few pre -recorded shows a couple

536
00:37:03,820 --> 00:37:06,519
months back, I'd be up the well -known
creep without a paddle.

537
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:10,339
Does he do this often? I mean, take off
without leaving a number or calling him?

538
00:37:10,340 --> 00:37:12,140
Yeah, he's usually pretty reliable.

539
00:37:12,580 --> 00:37:14,260
What do you want with Rick anyway?

540
00:37:14,740 --> 00:37:17,300
Oh, I wanted to give him the glasses
that he lost.

541
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,380
Hey, he's been going crazy without
these. Where did you find them?

542
00:37:21,780 --> 00:37:22,830
Parkhurst Hotel.

543
00:37:23,020 --> 00:37:24,480
He left them in a suite there.

544
00:37:24,700 --> 00:37:25,960
That's a first -class pad.

545
00:37:25,961 --> 00:37:29,759
Guess that's where the little fox he met
must have been staying since.

546
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,179
Rick didn't have the bread to spring for
anything like that.

547
00:37:32,180 --> 00:37:34,410
Do you happen to know the little fox's
name?

548
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:39,139
Surely. Rick dedicated at least a dozen
numbers to her. Does he know anyone else

549
00:37:39,140 --> 00:37:41,680
in L .A.? Say, Vince Barrett?

550
00:37:41,681 --> 00:37:43,499
Know him?

551
00:37:43,500 --> 00:37:48,240
He knew Barrett inside out. Not
personally, I mean, but... Excuse me.

552
00:37:51,940 --> 00:37:53,020
Who's that look like?

553
00:37:53,720 --> 00:37:54,770
Vince Barrett.

554
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:56,490
Wrong.

555
00:37:56,710 --> 00:38:01,229
That is little old Rick doing one of his
many famous impersonations But they

556
00:38:01,230 --> 00:38:02,389
really fooled you didn't it?

557
00:38:02,390 --> 00:38:03,969
I'll bet he fools a lot of people

558
00:38:03,970 --> 00:38:10,529
Oh

559
00:38:10,530 --> 00:38:12,190
What did you make of that?

560
00:38:13,110 --> 00:38:17,489
Like butter in a chair and everything is
coming together Would you mind

561
00:38:17,490 --> 00:38:19,749
spreading it around a little so I could
have a sample?

562
00:38:19,750 --> 00:38:24,609
Well up to now our main problem has been
that one man has been two places at the

563
00:38:24,610 --> 00:38:29,150
same time Maybe we have just found the
man occupying the other chair.

564
00:38:29,201 --> 00:38:31,229
Hello, operator.

565
00:38:31,230 --> 00:38:32,730
I'd like to make a call, please.

566
00:38:33,030 --> 00:38:38,050
Los Angeles, area code 213 -555 -7420.

567
00:38:41,270 --> 00:38:42,410
Have you any quarters?

568
00:38:42,910 --> 00:38:48,710
As long as I'm paying for this call, how
about filling me in on foods, too?

569
00:38:48,910 --> 00:38:50,230
Yeah, thank you, operator.

570
00:38:59,500 --> 00:39:00,550
Oh, Mr. Foreman.

571
00:39:00,820 --> 00:39:02,340
This is Barnaby Jones.

572
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,580
Mr. Foreman, I need some information
regarding the payment for Mr.

573
00:39:06,780 --> 00:39:09,940
Barrett's stay at the Parkhurst Hotel
this last weekend.

574
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:11,760
Do you have those records?

575
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:13,410
Sure, I'll hold.

576
00:39:14,540 --> 00:39:16,830
What does that have to do with Rick
Hatfield?

577
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:21,359
Well, the biggest advantage in using
another man's identity is that you can

578
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:22,410
his credit, too.

579
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:24,330
Hello?

580
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:25,690
Yes, I see.

581
00:39:27,180 --> 00:39:28,320
Oh, Mr. Foreman.

582
00:39:29,740 --> 00:39:33,559
Have there been any recent charges made
in Mr. Barrett's name that he claims

583
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:34,610
were not his?

584
00:39:36,540 --> 00:39:37,590
Huh?

585
00:39:38,780 --> 00:39:40,700
Well, did they take care of those, too?

586
00:39:43,140 --> 00:39:44,190
I see.

587
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,380
Well, thank you very much.

588
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:50,680
Are you going to tell me?

589
00:39:51,500 --> 00:39:55,540
Seems there were several large hotel
bills, dinners, rooms, things like that,

590
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,240
run up in Barrett's name recently.

591
00:39:57,241 --> 00:39:59,609
Barrett claimed they weren't his.

592
00:39:59,610 --> 00:40:02,749
His lawyer, Ben Reston, has been
squabbling with Foreman about them for

593
00:40:02,750 --> 00:40:03,800
weeks.

594
00:40:03,870 --> 00:40:05,190
Well, what?

595
00:40:06,090 --> 00:40:10,790
Well, suddenly, that Saturday night,
Reston had them all paid off.

596
00:40:11,650 --> 00:40:12,700
Saturday night?

597
00:40:12,990 --> 00:40:14,070
Isn't that the night?

598
00:40:14,910 --> 00:40:16,490
It's the night Ted Mason died.

599
00:40:40,650 --> 00:40:41,700
Going somewhere?

600
00:40:42,050 --> 00:40:44,590
I thought I'd take a drive.

601
00:40:45,830 --> 00:40:47,450
Without saying goodbye?

602
00:40:57,270 --> 00:40:59,930
Santa Carlita can be a lovely trip.

603
00:41:02,270 --> 00:41:03,390
You knew in there?

604
00:41:03,670 --> 00:41:04,720
I guessed.

605
00:41:05,070 --> 00:41:07,130
The kiss just clenched it.

606
00:41:09,710 --> 00:41:11,390
You were with Barrett all the time.

607
00:41:12,050 --> 00:41:13,870
Not when he wanted you out of the way.

608
00:41:16,890 --> 00:41:18,030
I still don't get it.

609
00:41:18,690 --> 00:41:20,290
Why did Barrett want to kill me?

610
00:41:21,530 --> 00:41:25,170
He was using you as an alibi to cover a
murder he committed.

611
00:41:25,810 --> 00:41:27,910
He couldn't afford having you around.

612
00:41:31,590 --> 00:41:37,570
Where are you going?

613
00:41:37,990 --> 00:41:39,040
Call the police.

614
00:41:39,850 --> 00:41:40,900
Oh, darling, wait.

615
00:41:41,190 --> 00:41:44,510
You're honest and a little bit square,
but don't be a fool, too.

616
00:41:45,030 --> 00:41:48,870
You and I are the only two that know who
you really are.

617
00:41:49,870 --> 00:41:51,750
You can stay, Vince Barrett.

618
00:41:52,290 --> 00:41:53,630
It's a chance of a lifetime.

619
00:41:54,150 --> 00:41:57,590
His money, his success, and me.

620
00:41:59,090 --> 00:42:00,410
The two of us together.

621
00:42:01,450 --> 00:42:02,500
And Reston?

622
00:42:03,410 --> 00:42:04,460
We'll cut him in.

623
00:42:04,910 --> 00:42:06,050
It'll work perfectly.

624
00:42:06,730 --> 00:42:10,100
Yeah, until they come down on me for
that murder Barrett committed.

625
00:42:11,410 --> 00:42:13,690
Wait a minute, please.

626
00:42:13,970 --> 00:42:16,110
If you call, I'm an accessory.

627
00:42:16,330 --> 00:42:18,130
Hopper, would you get me the police?

628
00:42:18,190 --> 00:42:22,350
Ben, stop him. He's not really Vince.
You shot the wrong man.

629
00:42:23,710 --> 00:42:24,760
What?

630
00:42:27,590 --> 00:42:28,640
Put it down.

631
00:42:35,670 --> 00:42:38,589
That's the way it's shaping up.

632
00:42:38,590 --> 00:42:40,450
Let's hope there still are two of them.

633
00:42:43,770 --> 00:42:45,310
Now, look, Mr. Reston. Move it!

634
00:42:45,311 --> 00:42:49,929
Rick, it doesn't have to be this way.
Well, he doesn't seem convinced of that.

635
00:42:49,930 --> 00:42:52,700
Ben, tell him. If he plays it our way...
It's no good, Cheryl.

636
00:42:52,970 --> 00:42:54,710
We don't have any kind of guarantee.

637
00:42:54,711 --> 00:42:57,689
We're up to our necks in this thing, and
he can talk any time he wants to.

638
00:42:57,690 --> 00:43:01,360
He's going in the woods right alongside
Vince. Mr. Reston. Just keep moving.

639
00:43:01,670 --> 00:43:04,950
If you kill me, you'll be fresh out of
Vince Barrett's. I mean...

640
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:10,199
Suppose somebody comes around asking for
him. By the time that happens, we'll

641
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,800
have bled the company dry and we'll be
long gone.

642
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:40,860
Yes? You are Shirley Jennings?

643
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,210
I got the name from the registration in
the car in the driveway.

644
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,180
If you've come to see Mr.

645
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:49,660
Barrett, he's not at home.

646
00:43:49,900 --> 00:43:51,040
His car's in the garage.

647
00:43:51,620 --> 00:43:52,920
So is Mr. Reston's.

648
00:43:53,940 --> 00:43:55,300
They took another car.

649
00:43:55,720 --> 00:43:58,550
That wouldn't by any chance have been
Rick Hatfield's?

650
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,620
I'm afraid I don't remember anyone by
that name.

651
00:44:03,630 --> 00:44:07,689
That's funny, because Mr. and Mrs.
Anderson, I remember you were having

652
00:44:07,690 --> 00:44:10,870
with them and Rick at the Parker Hotel
Saturday night.

653
00:44:11,610 --> 00:44:14,090
I was with Mr. Barrett that Saturday
night.

654
00:44:14,091 --> 00:44:16,449
I hope you'll change your mind about
that.

655
00:44:16,450 --> 00:44:21,109
Because being with Mr. Barrett would put
you smack dab in the middle of the Ted

656
00:44:21,110 --> 00:44:22,160
Mason murder.

657
00:44:24,150 --> 00:44:25,310
You know that much?

658
00:44:25,670 --> 00:44:28,140
I have a feeling you're going to tell me
a lot more.

659
00:44:46,830 --> 00:44:47,880
This is Betty Jones.

660
00:45:32,810 --> 00:45:36,170
You mind telling me which one you are?
Rick Hatfield.

661
00:45:36,950 --> 00:45:40,270
Right now, I'm glad of it.
