1
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:23,580
Barnaby Jones, a Quinn Martin
production, starring Buddy Ebsen.

2
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:30,600
Also starring Lee Merriweather, with
guest stars Anne Francis,

3
00:00:30,860 --> 00:00:36,340
William Smithers, Daniel J. Trevanti.

4
00:00:38,540 --> 00:00:41,640
Tonight's episode, Theater of Fear.

5
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:06,660
Love. Where do I find it?

6
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:08,970
In a kiss?

7
00:01:09,780 --> 00:01:10,830
In a caress?

8
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:13,920
In the pain of flagellation?

9
00:01:15,780 --> 00:01:17,680
Wrong, Shirley, wrong, wrong, wrong.

10
00:01:19,380 --> 00:01:20,430
Agony.

11
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,360
Agony. The agony of flagellation.

12
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,450
Just checking in on my favorite star
before turning out the lights.

13
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,000
Oh, Bert. Thank heaven it's you.

14
00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:48,960
You sound a little bit unstrung.

15
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,239
You haven't been getting any more crack
calls, have you? No, no. Not tonight. I

16
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,100
guess I'm just a little on edge.

17
00:01:55,340 --> 00:01:57,440
Are you comfortable with the memorizing?

18
00:01:57,580 --> 00:01:58,630
Yeah, almost.

19
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,250
The concentration seems to be coming
back.

20
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:02,980
You see, I knew it would.

21
00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:08,280
The last thing you did before... Go on,
Bert. Say it before the fall.

22
00:02:09,619 --> 00:02:13,519
Well, you know, the movies where you
only have to memorize one line before

23
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:18,339
lunch. The stage separates the models
from the magicians, my darling. You are

24
00:02:18,340 --> 00:02:19,940
pure magic up on that stage.

25
00:02:20,580 --> 00:02:21,630
I love you.

26
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:22,810
Keep talking.

27
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,330
Lou just called.

28
00:02:24,460 --> 00:02:25,510
Yeah.

29
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,940
The theater is sold out for the entire
run here, and New York will be the same.

30
00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:33,370
I wish I'd had you around for the last
three years.

31
00:02:33,371 --> 00:02:36,679
Why don't you beat Agnes at some
cribbage and take a hot bath, and I'll

32
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:37,729
at ten.

33
00:02:37,730 --> 00:02:40,980
I'm just gonna have to settle for
solitaire. Agnes is off tonight.

34
00:02:41,310 --> 00:02:42,360
What do you mean?

35
00:02:42,430 --> 00:02:44,790
Well, she's not exactly a babysitter,
Bert.

36
00:02:45,670 --> 00:02:48,920
Well, I didn't want you to be alone
these last few nights, Cheryl.

37
00:02:48,970 --> 00:02:53,169
Don't you worry. That wretched fox Agnes
has put a pencil line at the booze

38
00:02:53,170 --> 00:02:54,850
level of every bottle in the house.

39
00:02:56,810 --> 00:02:59,050
Huh. It's funny I thought I closed that.

40
00:02:59,051 --> 00:03:00,529
What's the matter?

41
00:03:00,530 --> 00:03:03,780
Well, I guess the wind just blew open
one of the doors downstairs.

42
00:03:03,870 --> 00:03:05,070
Let me check, Bert, huh?

43
00:03:31,431 --> 00:03:34,289
I think there's someone in the house.

44
00:03:34,290 --> 00:03:36,370
Are you sure, Shirley? It could be
Agnes.

45
00:03:36,970 --> 00:03:38,330
No, no. Nobody answered.

46
00:03:39,130 --> 00:03:40,180
All right.

47
00:03:40,690 --> 00:03:41,890
Shirley, you stay there.

48
00:03:41,891 --> 00:03:45,909
I'm going to have Carla get on this
line. I'm going to get on the other line

49
00:03:45,910 --> 00:03:48,200
call the police. We'll be right over.
All right.

50
00:03:48,370 --> 00:03:50,070
But, Bert, please hurry.

51
00:03:54,470 --> 00:03:55,730
Shirley, hi. This is Carla.

52
00:03:58,270 --> 00:03:59,320
Are you all right?

53
00:03:59,830 --> 00:04:02,300
Operator, I want the police. This is an
emergency.

54
00:04:02,650 --> 00:04:03,700
Shirley?

55
00:04:05,930 --> 00:04:06,980
Shirley?

56
00:04:07,650 --> 00:04:09,510
Oh, please answer.

57
00:04:12,010 --> 00:04:15,670
Look, just take whatever you want and
leave.

58
00:04:16,390 --> 00:04:17,769
I've called the police.

59
00:04:18,370 --> 00:04:21,750
I've called the police. They'll be here
any minute.

60
00:04:22,210 --> 00:04:24,730
Shirley? I've called the...

61
00:05:35,450 --> 00:05:36,500
Shirley!

62
00:05:45,250 --> 00:05:46,650
Go.

63
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:07,170
It's all right.

64
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:09,650
It's all right.

65
00:06:14,380 --> 00:06:18,319
I spoke to Lieutenant Biddle. The police
feel it was a prowler. There have been

66
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,120
a number of those around here lately.

67
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,959
Are you sure that it was a prowler?
Well, they thought it might have been

68
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,499
something more serious at first, but
then when Miss Evans said it was she

69
00:06:29,500 --> 00:06:32,879
grabbed the scissors, the lieutenant
probably figured it was just a prowler

70
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,560
decided to try his luck elsewhere.

71
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,999
Well, I hope so, Mr. Jones. I dearly
hope so. I hope that hiring you was a

72
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,200
complete waste of money.

73
00:06:41,201 --> 00:06:42,839
Happens that way sometimes.

74
00:06:42,840 --> 00:06:44,200
But I don't think so.

75
00:06:44,201 --> 00:06:48,459
I've got the biggest show of this decade
and the biggest talent of this century

76
00:06:48,460 --> 00:06:49,540
opening in three days.

77
00:06:50,540 --> 00:06:52,080
I hear trouble in the wings.

78
00:06:52,980 --> 00:06:55,820
I think somebody's trying to sandbag my
star.

79
00:06:56,220 --> 00:06:57,270
Who?

80
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,000
That's what I'm hoping you'll find out.

81
00:07:00,220 --> 00:07:01,660
Well, my next question is why.

82
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:03,450
Why?

83
00:07:03,660 --> 00:07:07,740
Why would anybody want to keep Shirley
Evans from making a comeback?

84
00:07:08,420 --> 00:07:09,470
Lunacy.

85
00:07:10,300 --> 00:07:11,820
The world is brimming with it.

86
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,500
Some nut probably wants to keep her from
appearing again.

87
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,540
She kind of dimmed out fast in the last
three or four years, didn't she?

88
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:21,960
Sure she dimmed out.

89
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,600
She lost both her parents by the time
she was 21 years old.

90
00:07:26,180 --> 00:07:30,379
She had two frightful marriages in five
years. She was left with a daughter she

91
00:07:30,380 --> 00:07:31,880
hardly ever got a chance to see.

92
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:33,620
She took pills to keep going.

93
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,180
Took pills to calm down.

94
00:07:35,460 --> 00:07:39,010
She started drinking booze to make
everything look pastel and pretty.

95
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,940
And then I think that accident in New
York finally tore it.

96
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:48,159
Something about an unhappy ending to a
Broadway party, wasn't it? Car she was

97
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,900
hit and killed another young woman.

98
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:51,890
Jail?

99
00:07:52,180 --> 00:07:53,680
Thelonious driving charges?

100
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:55,730
Suspended sentence.

101
00:07:55,940 --> 00:07:57,200
And there went her career.

102
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:03,919
All she needed was a transfusion of
confidence and a great script and music.

103
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,280
rose like a phoenix.

104
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,180
Delicate bird to phoenix.

105
00:08:07,780 --> 00:08:09,900
You think somebody declared open season?

106
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:13,730
How's she doing?

107
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,400
Anything but a delicate bird this
morning, Mr. Parrish.

108
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,760
Mr. Jones, this is Ed Davis, our
publicist. How do you do, Mr. Jones?

109
00:08:23,220 --> 00:08:27,099
If they make it a routine prowler
report, I doubt the press will even pick

110
00:08:27,100 --> 00:08:28,870
it. Well, I certainly hope not.

111
00:08:29,330 --> 00:08:30,430
Eddie, Mr.

112
00:08:31,210 --> 00:08:32,830
Jones is a private investigator.

113
00:08:33,429 --> 00:08:36,530
So now that you know that, forget I told
you, okay?

114
00:08:36,789 --> 00:08:39,559
Well, you didn't even have to say
anything, Mr. Parrish.

115
00:08:43,870 --> 00:08:44,920
You're blooming.

116
00:08:45,870 --> 00:08:46,920
Orange juice.

117
00:08:46,970 --> 00:08:48,290
The neutered screwdriver.

118
00:08:48,490 --> 00:08:49,810
You're a good nurse, I know.

119
00:08:49,970 --> 00:08:53,889
Nurse I ain't. I'm everything else
around here but a nurse I ain't. She's a

120
00:08:53,890 --> 00:08:55,310
warden. No such thing.

121
00:08:55,311 --> 00:08:57,579
Shirley, this is Barnaby Jones.

122
00:08:57,580 --> 00:09:00,799
Remember I told you about him? How do
you do, Mr. Jones? How do you do?

123
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,879
Bert, you really are too much. I mean, a
private dressing room, I expect, but a

124
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,020
private investigator.

125
00:09:06,820 --> 00:09:11,620
Miss Evans, just think of me as a fan
looking for somebody who may not be.

126
00:09:12,060 --> 00:09:15,919
Okay. But really, I think probably it
was just somebody who was after the

127
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:16,970
or the color TV.

128
00:09:17,220 --> 00:09:18,600
Neither of which were taken.

129
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:20,800
Well, I should hope not.

130
00:09:20,801 --> 00:09:25,019
I mean, if he was half as scared as I
was, he's probably 10 pounds lighter and

131
00:09:25,020 --> 00:09:26,220
halfway to China by now.

132
00:09:26,221 --> 00:09:28,039
Why don't you sit down?

133
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,090
Thank you.

134
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:30,550
You say he.

135
00:09:31,380 --> 00:09:32,430
Did you see him?

136
00:09:33,260 --> 00:09:34,480
No, not really.

137
00:09:35,220 --> 00:09:38,980
As I told the police, it was like a
shadow. It all happened so fast.

138
00:09:39,700 --> 00:09:42,300
Police seem to think maybe it was a
teenage prowler.

139
00:09:42,301 --> 00:09:45,539
Police don't know about the phone calls,
Cheryl.

140
00:09:45,540 --> 00:09:48,980
Mr. Parrish told me about your
threatening phone calls. Nobody says

141
00:09:49,220 --> 00:09:50,540
They just play a recording.

142
00:09:50,990 --> 00:09:54,629
Well, it was a bad enough line when I
had to say it in the film, but when

143
00:09:54,630 --> 00:09:57,589
somebody plays it back to you on the
phone, it gets pretty scary.

144
00:09:57,590 --> 00:09:59,330
This was a recording of your voice?

145
00:09:59,430 --> 00:10:01,660
Do you ever watch the late movies, Mr.
Jones?

146
00:10:01,830 --> 00:10:02,880
Constantly.

147
00:10:02,950 --> 00:10:07,110
Do you remember you've destroyed
everything of value you don't deserve to

148
00:10:08,130 --> 00:10:09,270
That's a familiar ring.

149
00:10:10,590 --> 00:10:13,660
Miss Evans, how many people have your
phone number out here?

150
00:10:13,661 --> 00:10:17,809
She has unlisted numbers on both lines,
but everybody in the company, in the

151
00:10:17,810 --> 00:10:19,250
press, they all have it by now.

152
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:21,780
That narrows it down considerably.

153
00:10:22,260 --> 00:10:26,600
Miss Evans, from now on, I want somebody
to be with you at all times.

154
00:10:26,940 --> 00:10:28,860
Are you kidding? With this entourage?

155
00:10:28,861 --> 00:10:31,539
Come on, let's get that piano player to
work, huh?

156
00:10:31,540 --> 00:10:35,579
Why don't you take it easy and rest
today? I'll have Jill go through it with

157
00:10:35,580 --> 00:10:39,099
cast. Oh, sure. And then on opening
night, you can go out and tell the

158
00:10:39,100 --> 00:10:42,770
that Shirley Evans just doesn't have the
Heather Bloom number right yet.

159
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,439
But you just happen to have her
understudy, Jill Mallory, who will

160
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:47,490
for you. All right.

161
00:10:47,491 --> 00:10:48,409
All right.

162
00:10:48,410 --> 00:10:53,069
Why don't you two run along and I'll
stay around here and poke around a

163
00:10:53,070 --> 00:10:53,709
if you don't mind.

164
00:10:53,710 --> 00:10:54,760
Okay.

165
00:10:57,450 --> 00:10:58,500
Hey, Mr. Jones.

166
00:10:58,790 --> 00:11:01,260
You got to keep all the fingerprints you
can find.

167
00:11:01,570 --> 00:11:02,620
Thank you.

168
00:11:11,010 --> 00:11:12,060
Shirley.

169
00:11:13,090 --> 00:11:14,140
Shirley.

170
00:11:14,330 --> 00:11:17,760
I got to talk to you. She doesn't want
to talk to you. You got it, Kilgore.

171
00:11:17,761 --> 00:11:20,869
Shirley. Get in the car, Shirley. Stop
ordering her around.

172
00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:22,250
Well, I'll order you around.

173
00:11:23,170 --> 00:11:24,220
Now, leave her alone.

174
00:11:24,510 --> 00:11:26,010
She doesn't need you anymore.

175
00:11:26,390 --> 00:11:29,940
Drown yourself in a bottle if that's
your style, but stay away from her.

176
00:11:30,890 --> 00:11:32,070
Get in the car, Shirley.

177
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,750
look, I'd say you could tell me what
that was all about.

178
00:12:02,580 --> 00:12:06,740
Well, that's the trash my baby wound up
with when she stopped listening to me.

179
00:12:07,700 --> 00:12:11,200
Lloyd Kilgore. There used to be a famous
running back by that name.

180
00:12:11,201 --> 00:12:13,199
That's him.

181
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,540
Old mister used to be.

182
00:12:14,940 --> 00:12:16,320
Big Super Bowl star.

183
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,740
He hurt his back, but always gonna be a
big this or that.

184
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,730
The only big thing he'll ever be is a
big drunk.

185
00:12:24,270 --> 00:12:28,749
And that's who Miss Evans has been
keeping company with the last two or

186
00:12:28,750 --> 00:12:29,749
years?

187
00:12:29,750 --> 00:12:33,270
Shirley's bright on all sides but one,
the man side.

188
00:12:34,310 --> 00:12:37,630
Those two louses she married just wanted
her for a name.

189
00:12:38,110 --> 00:12:40,270
She had a baby, a little girl.

190
00:12:40,730 --> 00:12:43,190
Oh, has is what I've been reminding her.

191
00:12:43,510 --> 00:12:48,029
If she's going to start acting again,
she might as well include acting like a

192
00:12:48,030 --> 00:12:49,080
mother.

193
00:12:49,110 --> 00:12:52,970
Keeping that little girl in that
boarding school, it just isn't right.

194
00:12:55,550 --> 00:13:01,049
Agnes, you're sounding like you're not
too happy about Miss Evans going back on

195
00:13:01,050 --> 00:13:02,100
the stage.

196
00:13:08,070 --> 00:13:10,420
I know it's just going to happen all
over again.

197
00:13:10,910 --> 00:13:11,960
I know it.

198
00:13:13,230 --> 00:13:14,590
She just isn't ready.

199
00:13:16,190 --> 00:13:19,290
If I had my way, she'd never go near
that theater.

200
00:13:33,900 --> 00:13:40,259
A little finesse, a little finagle,
you're ordering toast

201
00:13:40,260 --> 00:13:47,099
instead of a bagel. Ah, yes, you dropped
the name of Rose

202
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:51,340
and a little bit off the nose.

203
00:13:55,190 --> 00:13:56,240
shows.

204
00:13:56,870 --> 00:14:01,850
You're the picture of a shiksa.

205
00:14:02,370 --> 00:14:05,950
You're going places, Heather, so pack
fast.

206
00:14:05,951 --> 00:14:09,609
No, it's all right, Cheryl. It's coming
beautifully.

207
00:14:09,610 --> 00:14:13,890
I'm sorry, Bert. I'm sorry. I just get
my mouth working and my feet stop.

208
00:14:13,891 --> 00:14:15,289
Take ten.

209
00:14:15,290 --> 00:14:16,340
Talk to your feet.

210
00:14:26,030 --> 00:14:27,230
And it's gone, it's gone.

211
00:14:27,930 --> 00:14:30,040
Better not let her hear you say that,
Jill.

212
00:14:30,230 --> 00:14:31,790
I'm better than she is.

213
00:14:33,570 --> 00:14:38,310
I won't quote you, but it's only a short
step from understudy to unemployment.

214
00:14:39,910 --> 00:14:43,030
If she really knew who you are, you'd be
fired in a minute.

215
00:14:44,270 --> 00:14:45,650
Well, I've done my homework.

216
00:14:46,090 --> 00:14:48,170
I know where all the bodies are buried.

217
00:14:55,210 --> 00:14:56,410
I didn't mean it that way.

218
00:15:02,970 --> 00:15:04,020
Ryan.

219
00:15:08,910 --> 00:15:11,130
Lloyd. Honey, I've got to talk to you.

220
00:15:11,350 --> 00:15:14,550
Lloyd, I told you, it's all over.
Please, I need you.

221
00:15:14,950 --> 00:15:16,000
Stop it.

222
00:15:16,350 --> 00:15:17,430
Stop saying that.

223
00:15:17,431 --> 00:15:21,109
Look, it's going to be different. You
and I will go into business together.

224
00:15:21,110 --> 00:15:22,510
Lloyd, please.

225
00:15:22,870 --> 00:15:24,090
No more drunk dreams.

226
00:15:24,910 --> 00:15:25,960
I made a mistake.

227
00:15:26,330 --> 00:15:27,530
Leave me alone, please.

228
00:15:28,870 --> 00:15:29,950
Hey, what's going on?

229
00:15:29,951 --> 00:15:33,569
Hey, I thought I told you to stay away
from her. Just get your hands off me,

230
00:15:33,570 --> 00:15:34,930
creep. Hey, hey, burn!

231
00:15:35,710 --> 00:15:36,760
Not that easy, baby.

232
00:15:37,101 --> 00:15:38,889
Not that...

233
00:15:38,890 --> 00:15:51,029
I

234
00:15:51,030 --> 00:15:53,080
take it that's not part of the
rehearsal.

235
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,370
An opening night, he could be a
disaster.

236
00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,980
I sure hope Mr. Parrish hasn't picked
himself a falling star.

237
00:16:11,740 --> 00:16:12,790
Uh,

238
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,760
eight ball off the cushion in the side
pocket.

239
00:16:37,291 --> 00:16:42,459
Not quite as good as a share of the
Super Bowl, is it?

240
00:16:42,460 --> 00:16:43,960
May I know you from somewhere?

241
00:16:44,300 --> 00:16:45,350
Sure.

242
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,370
I'm the fellow you stiff -armed when you
made your end run over at the theater.

243
00:16:49,411 --> 00:16:51,499
Sue me.

244
00:16:51,500 --> 00:16:55,050
Well, I don't want to sue you, Mr.
Kilgore, but I would like to level with

245
00:16:56,100 --> 00:16:57,150
So level.

246
00:16:59,020 --> 00:17:02,570
Somebody's been trying to make a lot of
trouble from Miss Evans lately.

247
00:17:03,020 --> 00:17:07,639
I've been hired to find out who and to
put a stop to it. Now, I have found that

248
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:12,040
sometimes... When you come right out and
say it, trouble stops.

249
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,800
And I collect my money just as you do
when you sink the eight ball.

250
00:17:18,339 --> 00:17:20,259
I don't know what you're talking about.

251
00:17:27,980 --> 00:17:29,240
Give me a double, Wendell.

252
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:30,850
You still here?

253
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,250
Yep.

254
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,339
Do you have any special reason for not
wanting to see Miss Evans on that stage

255
00:17:37,340 --> 00:17:38,319
opening night?

256
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:39,640
It's her funeral, not mine.

257
00:17:39,641 --> 00:17:43,879
I'm just trying to make a fool out of
her, don't you know that?

258
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:44,930
Why do you say that?

259
00:17:44,931 --> 00:17:48,599
She's in no condition to get on the
stage.

260
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,100
She's like me, washed up drunk.

261
00:17:50,860 --> 00:17:53,930
They get her up there and make a fool
out of her, and then what?

262
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:55,490
Huh, what?

263
00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,280
We were fine, just fine.

264
00:18:00,660 --> 00:18:02,160
Why don't they leave us alone?

265
00:18:03,020 --> 00:18:07,200
Just for the record, do you recall where
you were at 10 .30 last night?

266
00:18:07,670 --> 00:18:08,770
Yes, here, have a few.

267
00:18:09,190 --> 00:18:11,950
Oh, no, Cody's. That doesn't check out,
Mr.

268
00:18:12,170 --> 00:18:15,120
Kilgore. Over at Cody's, they say you're
left by 10 o 'clock.

269
00:18:15,190 --> 00:18:16,870
You're so smart, you figure it out.

270
00:18:16,970 --> 00:18:18,590
I don't know, just leave me alone.

271
00:18:29,750 --> 00:18:30,800
Yeah, sure.

272
00:18:31,210 --> 00:18:33,610
I could say, never hustle a hustler.

273
00:18:51,180 --> 00:18:53,160
Look, we both know what's right, right?

274
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:58,020
I mean, I can't say anything without
seeming selfish, you know?

275
00:19:05,380 --> 00:19:06,700
I'm sorry, Bert.

276
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:09,610
Lloyd was just acting like an
adolescent.

277
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,560
I don't care about him. I care about
you.

278
00:19:13,340 --> 00:19:14,780
Well, don't you fear.

279
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,680
All I want is a little meditation with
my feet.

280
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,590
And they'll be back in working order
tomorrow.

281
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,090
I promise.

282
00:19:23,300 --> 00:19:24,600
Who needs a promise?

283
00:19:25,340 --> 00:19:29,180
Could I ever be accused of coming
between you and a communion with your

284
00:19:30,740 --> 00:19:31,790
I love you.

285
00:19:31,980 --> 00:19:33,030
I love you.

286
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,220
You meditate, and I'll see you tomorrow.

287
00:19:38,360 --> 00:19:39,410
Okay.

288
00:19:40,431 --> 00:19:42,419
Hi, Agnes.

289
00:19:42,420 --> 00:19:43,399
Mr. Parrish.

290
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,250
I thought you were supposed to stop by
the school to see Kathy this afternoon.

291
00:19:49,770 --> 00:19:50,820
I completely forgot.

292
00:19:50,821 --> 00:19:53,749
Well, don't whip yourself in front of
me, lady.

293
00:19:53,750 --> 00:19:56,820
I'm the one who has to tell Kathy all
those lies when she calls.

294
00:19:58,170 --> 00:19:59,250
Agnes, I'm exhausted.

295
00:19:59,870 --> 00:20:01,250
Your daughter's tired, too.

296
00:20:01,670 --> 00:20:04,680
Tired of being a number in a uniform in
that boarding school.

297
00:20:04,830 --> 00:20:05,880
Stop it.

298
00:20:07,030 --> 00:20:12,550
I'm sorry. I'm trying my best to get it
all together for all of us. All right?

299
00:20:12,850 --> 00:20:16,569
You tell me if it's all right. What good
is it all going to be if it's going to

300
00:20:16,570 --> 00:20:17,650
start all over again?

301
00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:22,980
Oh, no. The world needs a star, is that
it?

302
00:20:22,981 --> 00:20:27,459
Well, Kathy needs a mother, and it don't
look like she's gonna get one come good

303
00:20:27,460 --> 00:20:29,960
times or bad. Just look who's talking.

304
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,590
I never once heard you complaining about
the good times.

305
00:20:33,740 --> 00:20:36,300
The bright lights never hurt your eyes.

306
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,620
Or the parties. Or the trips.

307
00:20:38,980 --> 00:20:42,640
I never once heard you complaining about
traveling first class.

308
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,160
You are a hypocrite, Agnes.

309
00:20:45,380 --> 00:20:48,570
And if it weren't for me, you'd still be
washing some floors in a...

310
00:20:48,750 --> 00:20:50,949
building you go to hell

311
00:20:50,950 --> 00:20:56,249
agnes

312
00:20:56,250 --> 00:21:01,509
i'm sorry i didn't mean that i'll pick
up my things later

313
00:21:01,510 --> 00:21:14,149
i'm

314
00:21:14,150 --> 00:21:17,910
certain it doesn't look as though she
had a drinking problem here

315
00:21:18,730 --> 00:21:20,290
Well, she was a beautiful woman.

316
00:21:20,590 --> 00:21:21,640
Still is.

317
00:21:21,970 --> 00:21:23,020
Oh?

318
00:21:23,490 --> 00:21:27,849
When you say, oh, like that, I don't
even have to look at you to know you're

319
00:21:27,850 --> 00:21:30,010
wearing that great big pecker cat grin.

320
00:21:30,550 --> 00:21:31,600
Really?

321
00:21:33,070 --> 00:21:36,829
Whenever I see you scratching around on
your desk like a chicken, I have a

322
00:21:36,830 --> 00:21:40,440
feeling that what you're looking for is
probably right under your nose.

323
00:21:41,390 --> 00:21:42,440
Some detect.

324
00:21:42,630 --> 00:21:46,420
I knew it was there all the time. I just
wanted to make you feel indispensable.

325
00:21:46,421 --> 00:21:47,789
Mm -hmm.

326
00:21:47,790 --> 00:21:49,050
Tired and indispensable.

327
00:21:49,770 --> 00:21:50,820
Yeah, here it is.

328
00:21:50,970 --> 00:21:54,730
The young woman who was killed by Miss
Evans' car was Miss Phyllis Sherman.

329
00:21:55,090 --> 00:21:59,289
Betty, check the New York papers and see
if you can come up with an obituary.

330
00:21:59,290 --> 00:22:00,340
There's a date.

331
00:22:01,770 --> 00:22:03,270
I'll do that tomorrow morning.

332
00:22:03,470 --> 00:22:06,510
Has she any idea who's been making these
calls?

333
00:22:07,830 --> 00:22:09,950
Nope. She says it's a recording.

334
00:22:09,951 --> 00:22:14,349
Of course, anyone could have taken that
off of a television rerun of one of her

335
00:22:14,350 --> 00:22:15,400
pictures.

336
00:22:15,630 --> 00:22:17,370
I got this from a TV station.

337
00:22:19,510 --> 00:22:21,430
You've destroyed everything of value.

338
00:22:22,110 --> 00:22:23,550
You don't deserve to live.

339
00:22:25,490 --> 00:22:26,540
Oh, dear.

340
00:22:27,290 --> 00:22:28,630
Could be a crank call.

341
00:22:29,510 --> 00:22:30,790
But I don't like it, Betty.

342
00:22:31,150 --> 00:22:34,400
She's got an unlisted number, but that
doesn't mean it's secret.

343
00:22:34,450 --> 00:22:37,010
I promised Mr. Parrish I'd give her a
call tonight.

344
00:22:55,110 --> 00:22:56,870
Please. Please, just leave me alone.

345
00:22:57,610 --> 00:22:59,110
Whoever you are, stop calling.

346
00:22:59,670 --> 00:23:02,770
Please. Miss Evans, listen now. This is
Barnaby Jones.

347
00:23:03,490 --> 00:23:06,530
Have you been getting calls from that
voice again?

348
00:23:06,890 --> 00:23:07,940
Yes.

349
00:23:08,450 --> 00:23:10,750
Twice. A half hour ago.

350
00:23:12,370 --> 00:23:13,830
I tried to call Bert.

351
00:23:14,250 --> 00:23:15,300
I'm afraid.

352
00:23:15,490 --> 00:23:16,670
Let me talk to Agnes.

353
00:23:17,670 --> 00:23:18,720
Agnes isn't here.

354
00:23:18,990 --> 00:23:20,040
We had a fight.

355
00:23:20,850 --> 00:23:21,900
She's gone.

356
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:26,780
Miss Evans, what is it?

357
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:35,370
What's the matter?

358
00:23:36,020 --> 00:23:38,060
There's someone here again.

359
00:23:40,020 --> 00:23:41,400
I gotta get out.

360
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,100
Betty, call the police on the other
phone.

361
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,180
Tell them to get over there right away.

362
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:49,330
Miss Evans.

363
00:25:15,820 --> 00:25:16,870
Yes, Miss Evans.

364
00:25:16,871 --> 00:25:20,479
For discounting the call the other
night, it's just another prowler.

365
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:21,620
Must have been Kilgore.

366
00:25:22,020 --> 00:25:26,020
He didn't get away so lucky this time.
Looks like he fell, hit his head.

367
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:27,290
Oh, no.

368
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,250
Don't, Cheryl.

369
00:25:29,660 --> 00:25:31,280
Why did it have to be him?

370
00:25:33,281 --> 00:25:35,659
Accident, Lieutenant?

371
00:25:35,660 --> 00:25:37,040
Almost by the book, Barnaby.

372
00:25:37,380 --> 00:25:40,880
A jilted boyfriend comes back to harass
the girlfriend.

373
00:25:42,020 --> 00:25:44,310
Only in this case, he probably stumbled
back.

374
00:25:44,719 --> 00:25:46,949
We've got a drunk sheet on Kilgore that
long.

375
00:25:47,300 --> 00:25:50,310
Well, if he was running away, he sure
took a wrong direction.

376
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,420
Why did he start with the pool area?

377
00:25:53,460 --> 00:25:55,630
Drunks and directions don't mix very
well.

378
00:25:55,631 --> 00:25:58,419
Did you ever see one driving down the
freeway the wrong way?

379
00:25:58,420 --> 00:25:59,470
Just as fatal.

380
00:25:59,660 --> 00:26:00,710
Yeah, I suppose.

381
00:26:01,980 --> 00:26:04,930
If you find out any difference, be sure
to let me know, huh?

382
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,180
Sure will, Lieutenant.

383
00:26:07,180 --> 00:26:10,610
Miss Evans, I don't think you'll be
troubled by prowlers any longer.

384
00:26:10,820 --> 00:26:14,400
If we can get a full statement on this
later. Certainly.

385
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:16,610
Thank you, LaDonna.

386
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,330
Talk to you, Barnaby.

387
00:26:20,860 --> 00:26:26,979
Miss Evans, when you were being chased
and running and trying to find your way

388
00:26:26,980 --> 00:26:29,450
out of the house, did you see that it
was Kilgore?

389
00:26:29,860 --> 00:26:30,910
No.

390
00:26:31,420 --> 00:26:33,640
If I'd known, I wouldn't have run from
him.

391
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,380
I'm not afraid of Lloyd.

392
00:26:36,140 --> 00:26:38,020
I feel sorry for him.

393
00:26:45,870 --> 00:26:47,490
I'll get you some water, Mr. Evans.

394
00:26:52,230 --> 00:26:53,280
Mr. Parrish.

395
00:26:59,970 --> 00:27:02,950
I'm not sure that this explains the
phone calls.

396
00:27:05,290 --> 00:27:06,340
Why do you say that?

397
00:27:06,590 --> 00:27:09,120
Kilgore could easily have gotten... I
don't think so.

398
00:27:09,330 --> 00:27:12,250
Kilgore was a muscular, overt type of
man.

399
00:27:12,590 --> 00:27:14,210
Kind of would barge in.

400
00:27:14,750 --> 00:27:18,670
I can't see him fiddling with tape
recorders or scary phone calls.

401
00:27:19,530 --> 00:27:24,109
Well, I suppose your judgment is right.
I'll have to get the phone numbers

402
00:27:24,110 --> 00:27:25,160
changed, I guess.

403
00:27:25,330 --> 00:27:26,380
Mr. Parrish.

404
00:27:26,610 --> 00:27:29,140
Yeah? I think I'd better run down to the
press room.

405
00:27:29,450 --> 00:27:33,309
See if I can detour the story from the
newspapers. At least soften the facts a

406
00:27:33,310 --> 00:27:34,149
little, you know.

407
00:27:34,150 --> 00:27:36,649
That's a good idea, Eddie. Thanks for
coming over so soon.

408
00:27:36,650 --> 00:27:37,700
Yeah.

409
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,300
Mr. Davis on call 24 hours a day?

410
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:48,370
Excuse me?

411
00:27:48,860 --> 00:27:50,080
He got here awfully fast.

412
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,239
Well, I think he said he had to come
over here anyway to pick up some

413
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:56,290
or something.

414
00:27:56,620 --> 00:28:00,519
I was having a phone conversation with
Miss Evans when it happened. She said

415
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,260
that she'd had a quarrel with Agnes.

416
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,700
Cheryl and Agnes had been going at it
for years.

417
00:28:07,100 --> 00:28:09,810
They were arguing about Cheryl's
daughter, she said.

418
00:28:09,811 --> 00:28:11,629
Does your daughter live around here?

419
00:28:11,630 --> 00:28:14,100
In Candlewood. It's a private school on
the hills.

420
00:28:14,730 --> 00:28:16,910
Why can't she see me? She promised.

421
00:28:17,450 --> 00:28:22,590
Oh, Kathy, when you get older, you will
have to realize that promise means try.

422
00:28:22,591 --> 00:28:24,149
You're older.

423
00:28:24,150 --> 00:28:25,490
You come when you promise.

424
00:28:25,990 --> 00:28:28,310
Go ahead, Agnes. Explain that one.

425
00:28:29,470 --> 00:28:30,520
Hello, pet.

426
00:28:30,810 --> 00:28:31,860
How are you?

427
00:28:32,290 --> 00:28:35,770
Maybe if I were a pet, you'd keep me
around the house. Hush now.

428
00:28:36,650 --> 00:28:40,610
Kathy, I'm doing this for both of us.
You have to understand that.

429
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,130
I do.

430
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,630
You're in a place you can afford to keep
me.

431
00:28:44,631 --> 00:28:46,999
But you can't keep me because you're in
a play.

432
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,050
I'm working.

433
00:28:48,260 --> 00:28:49,320
I'm gone all day.

434
00:28:50,660 --> 00:28:51,710
That's nothing.

435
00:28:51,780 --> 00:28:53,460
I'm gone all year. What do you care?

436
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:55,380
I do care, Kathy.

437
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,610
At least when you were drunk, you used
to come and see me.

438
00:28:58,860 --> 00:29:00,720
I liked you better when you were drunk.

439
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,590
Don't talk to your mother like that.
What mother?

440
00:29:04,060 --> 00:29:05,110
You don't care.

441
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,730
All you care about is yourself and your
theater, theater, theater.

442
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:10,530
Kathy?

443
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:12,540
Please. Oh, let her go.

444
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,830
Little hurts like that hurt big when
they're that age.

445
00:29:17,020 --> 00:29:18,580
Agnes, what am I supposed to do?

446
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,260
I heard about last night, and I'm sorry
that I wasn't there.

447
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:26,410
Really sorry.

448
00:29:26,980 --> 00:29:28,600
Why should you be any different?

449
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,160
Nobody's ever there when I need them.

450
00:29:46,830 --> 00:29:47,880
Little bit dark.

451
00:30:26,350 --> 00:30:27,400
Take ten.

452
00:30:27,570 --> 00:30:31,110
You like?

453
00:30:37,730 --> 00:30:38,910
That was good.

454
00:30:39,430 --> 00:30:40,850
Wrong. It was perfect.

455
00:30:42,550 --> 00:30:44,370
Maybe I better introduce myself.

456
00:30:45,210 --> 00:30:46,260
Barnaby Jones.

457
00:30:47,190 --> 00:30:50,950
An understudy has to know everything
that goes on, onstage and backstage.

458
00:30:52,150 --> 00:30:55,470
Then you probably know what happened to
Miss Evans offstage.

459
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,960
Yes. I'm terribly sorry.

460
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,520
You're a very good actress.

461
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:02,570
What do you mean?

462
00:31:02,660 --> 00:31:07,199
Well, I might be sitting here thinking
that you really were sorry if I hadn't

463
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,800
seen you with Mr. Kilgore in that bar
yesterday.

464
00:31:10,820 --> 00:31:11,870
So?

465
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,400
So, what business were you discussing
with Mr. Kilgore?

466
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:18,610
No business.

467
00:31:20,300 --> 00:31:24,200
No business is like show business. I
think I got that right.

468
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,010
Like so what?

469
00:31:27,180 --> 00:31:29,600
I did it for the good of everyone. She
isn't ready.

470
00:31:30,060 --> 00:31:31,980
She'll ruin everything and everybody.

471
00:31:31,981 --> 00:31:36,099
Mr. Parrish is so obsessed with the idea
of resurrecting that old blush, he'd

472
00:31:36,100 --> 00:31:36,859
never listen.

473
00:31:36,860 --> 00:31:40,170
So I tried to get Lloyd Kilgore to talk
some sense to her. That's all.

474
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,000
Well, if he tried, he died trying.

475
00:31:45,940 --> 00:31:47,140
Sorry, I can't help that.

476
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,280
And any plans you may have had when Mr.
Kilgore died with him?

477
00:31:52,700 --> 00:31:54,200
What's that supposed to mean?

478
00:31:55,690 --> 00:31:58,170
Shirley Evans is a star to the core.

479
00:31:59,050 --> 00:32:02,170
She has recovered from shocks worse than
this.

480
00:32:02,730 --> 00:32:04,530
She'll be on stage opening night.

481
00:32:05,350 --> 00:32:06,910
I wouldn't count on it.

482
00:32:07,730 --> 00:32:10,550
Shirley Evans is also a lush to the
core.

483
00:32:11,430 --> 00:32:15,330
She's an inch away from popping the cork
and going under.

484
00:32:16,490 --> 00:32:17,540
Again.

485
00:33:05,171 --> 00:33:07,179
Why don't we join?

486
00:33:07,180 --> 00:33:09,200
You said to call if there's any trouble.

487
00:33:09,201 --> 00:33:11,239
Well, yes, Agnes. What's the matter?

488
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,120
She's been here and gone, and she's at
the bottle again.

489
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:15,580
She's drinking again.

490
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,200
Well, you stay right there, Agnes.

491
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:19,960
I think I may be able to find her.

492
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:21,580
Well, it's partly my fault.

493
00:33:21,581 --> 00:33:22,879
Find her, please.

494
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:23,930
Please find her.

495
00:33:24,060 --> 00:33:25,110
Yeah, I'll try.

496
00:33:30,231 --> 00:33:32,299
Oh, sorry.

497
00:33:32,300 --> 00:33:33,350
Are you in a rush?

498
00:33:33,351 --> 00:33:34,279
Ah, yeah.

499
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:35,780
Well, here, take a look at this.

500
00:33:37,459 --> 00:33:39,640
The obituary notice of a girl in New
York.

501
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:44,720
It's reminded by her father, Edward R.
Davis of Los Angeles. Good work, Betty.

502
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:45,930
Check him out.

503
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:47,220
Where are you off to?

504
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:52,100
Our lamb has strayed. I'm going to catch
her before she goes off the deep end.

505
00:33:58,940 --> 00:33:59,990
One more.

506
00:34:02,100 --> 00:34:04,220
One for the money and two for the show.

507
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,350
That one for the money's all right, but
it's a two for the show to get you.

508
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,320
Oh, hey, Barnaby.

509
00:34:14,300 --> 00:34:16,560
I don't have to drink alone after all.

510
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:18,920
You don't have to drink at all.

511
00:34:20,340 --> 00:34:21,540
Agnes told you, hmm?

512
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,440
That wretched old fox.

513
00:34:24,620 --> 00:34:25,940
Agnes is worried about you.

514
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:28,900
Go on back and tell her not to worry.

515
00:34:30,639 --> 00:34:33,469
Why don't you come back with me and then
you can tell her?

516
00:34:34,699 --> 00:34:35,749
No.

517
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:38,480
My little Kathy was right.

518
00:34:39,580 --> 00:34:41,140
Shouldn't I have a little girl?

519
00:34:41,159 --> 00:34:42,209
Yeah, I know.

520
00:34:42,210 --> 00:34:45,678
I don't think she'd like what you're
doing.

521
00:34:45,679 --> 00:34:46,729
Oh, yes, she would.

522
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,179
Kathy and Lloyd were both right.

523
00:34:50,659 --> 00:34:52,339
This is where I belong, right here.

524
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,460
Everybody going their own way, minding
their own business.

525
00:34:58,420 --> 00:35:02,280
It's going to sit right here, blend in
with everybody.

526
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:05,450
It's an extra.

527
00:35:06,279 --> 00:35:08,960
That's it. Walk on. That's the rule I
want to play.

528
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,160
You're not everybody, Miss Evans.

529
00:35:13,780 --> 00:35:15,100
You're something special.

530
00:35:15,101 --> 00:35:19,479
That's the reason people make the
demands on you that they do.

531
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,800
They're hungry for something that you
can be, something special.

532
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,780
It's not that they're selfish, but they
need you.

533
00:35:28,340 --> 00:35:29,480
Never mind about them.

534
00:35:30,020 --> 00:35:31,070
Think about you.

535
00:35:31,071 --> 00:35:36,149
Doing the thing you were born to do and
knowing that you're doing it better than

536
00:35:36,150 --> 00:35:37,200
anybody else.

537
00:35:38,370 --> 00:35:43,010
Not one person in a hundred million
makes it to the top of the mountain.

538
00:35:44,690 --> 00:35:46,250
It's a pretty view from up there.

539
00:35:47,410 --> 00:35:50,060
Much better than the view from the
bottom of a bottle.

540
00:35:53,090 --> 00:35:54,570
I want to do it.

541
00:35:56,790 --> 00:35:57,840
So bad.

542
00:36:02,700 --> 00:36:04,930
Well, this is all that's keeping you
from it.

543
00:36:09,620 --> 00:36:10,670
Why not help?

544
00:36:13,060 --> 00:36:18,260
If we can wait all the way home, still
shall.

545
00:36:40,170 --> 00:36:42,210
Mr. Parrish said you wanted to see me?

546
00:36:42,950 --> 00:36:46,130
Yes. I was just looking at the pool.
Strange, isn't it?

547
00:36:47,190 --> 00:36:48,510
Strange? What's strange?

548
00:36:48,710 --> 00:36:51,600
How something built for pleasure can
become a death trap.

549
00:36:53,470 --> 00:36:54,730
I'd thought of it that way.

550
00:36:55,890 --> 00:36:56,940
Accidents happen.

551
00:36:57,350 --> 00:37:01,350
I was thinking about another accident
that happened in New York five years

552
00:37:02,490 --> 00:37:06,470
When your daughter was run down and
killed by a car being driven by Miss

553
00:37:07,770 --> 00:37:09,270
You think that just happened?

554
00:37:09,271 --> 00:37:12,269
Miss Evans was responsible and should
have been punished.

555
00:37:12,270 --> 00:37:14,380
My daughter was known by her married
name.

556
00:37:14,610 --> 00:37:18,950
So far, no one here has connected except
Jill Mallory.

557
00:37:19,690 --> 00:37:20,740
Did she tell you?

558
00:37:21,430 --> 00:37:24,320
I've been sort of combing the birds out
of the fur on my own.

559
00:37:24,710 --> 00:37:30,049
And the obituary notice listed in Edward
R. Davis as a father, I found out that

560
00:37:30,050 --> 00:37:31,100
was you.

561
00:37:31,710 --> 00:37:36,209
I won't pretend I have any loving
fondness for Shirley Evans, but I'm a

562
00:37:36,210 --> 00:37:37,550
professional and so is she.

563
00:37:38,010 --> 00:37:39,870
And you don't harbor any old grudges?

564
00:37:40,310 --> 00:37:43,990
Just a long -buried feeling of hurt, I
guess.

565
00:37:44,770 --> 00:37:49,869
Don't get me wrong, I love my daughter
as much as any father, but Phyllis was

566
00:37:49,870 --> 00:37:56,709
wild. She ran with the pack and she...
Everyone concerned has suffered

567
00:37:56,710 --> 00:37:58,250
enough a long time ago.

568
00:37:59,110 --> 00:38:00,810
That's very understanding of you.

569
00:38:01,110 --> 00:38:02,470
But you don't believe me.

570
00:38:03,330 --> 00:38:04,950
Let's say I'd like to believe you.

571
00:38:05,310 --> 00:38:06,360
Well...

572
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,170
Oh, boy.

573
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,880
That's why they call them deadlines.

574
00:38:14,300 --> 00:38:16,120
Kill yourself trying to beat them.

575
00:38:22,720 --> 00:38:26,579
If you're going to start spending the
nights here, I'm going to order a day

576
00:38:26,580 --> 00:38:27,660
for the office, okay?

577
00:38:28,100 --> 00:38:29,150
What?

578
00:38:29,580 --> 00:38:31,120
It's almost 10 o 'clock.

579
00:38:31,500 --> 00:38:35,319
Look, I know it's not important to cute
fellas like you, but I really need my

580
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:36,370
beauty sleep.

581
00:38:36,420 --> 00:38:41,500
Betty, would you please get me... Mrs.
Parrish on the phone.

582
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:44,680
Don't you mean Mr. Parrish?

583
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:49,280
When I say Mrs., I mean Mrs.

584
00:38:51,331 --> 00:38:53,359
Poor Mr.

585
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,540
Parrish. I wonder if his show is ever
going to open.

586
00:38:56,980 --> 00:39:00,170
You ever have the thought that maybe he
doesn't want it to open?

587
00:39:01,020 --> 00:39:05,579
What? You ever hear of the producer who
sold 200 % of his show and the only

588
00:39:05,580 --> 00:39:07,750
thing that could save him was a quick
flop?

589
00:39:08,500 --> 00:39:09,700
Uh, Mrs. Parrish?

590
00:39:10,420 --> 00:39:12,650
Yes, would you please hold for Bobby
Jones?

591
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,460
Miss Parrish, I hope I didn't disturb
you.

592
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:18,970
No.

593
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:24,819
What can I do for you? The other night,
when your husband was talking to Miss

594
00:39:24,820 --> 00:39:27,360
Evans, he gave you the phone.

595
00:39:27,361 --> 00:39:28,719
Is that right?

596
00:39:28,720 --> 00:39:31,920
Yes. Well, he went to the other phone to
call the police.

597
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,360
You stayed right on that phone until...

598
00:39:35,240 --> 00:39:37,800
Mr. Parrish and the police got to Miss
Evans.

599
00:39:38,720 --> 00:39:41,920
Yes. Well, I'm afraid they didn't have
anyone to talk to.

600
00:39:42,260 --> 00:39:45,780
Poor Shirley had dropped the phone and
run for her life by then.

601
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:51,160
Now, Miss Parrish, I'm going to ask you
to tell me exactly.

602
00:40:13,540 --> 00:40:16,000
Hello? You've destroyed everything of
value.

603
00:40:16,500 --> 00:40:17,880
You don't deserve it.

604
00:40:30,901 --> 00:40:34,579
Barnaby Jones' office. May I help you?

605
00:40:34,580 --> 00:40:35,630
This is Agnes.

606
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:37,400
May I speak to Mr. Jones?

607
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,080
That crazy call, I've just got one.

608
00:40:41,350 --> 00:40:42,670
Agnes, Mr. Jones isn't here.

609
00:40:42,671 --> 00:40:45,969
Hold on while I try and reach him in on
another number, please.

610
00:40:45,970 --> 00:40:47,020
Just hold on.

611
00:40:59,590 --> 00:41:00,640
Magnificent dog.

612
00:41:00,950 --> 00:41:02,370
Tame as an old cow, really.

613
00:41:03,250 --> 00:41:05,050
He's got a good barker on him, though.

614
00:41:05,630 --> 00:41:07,130
Only trick he knows is barking.

615
00:41:07,490 --> 00:41:08,990
You keep him outside at night?

616
00:41:09,270 --> 00:41:11,560
Yeah. He'd be out there now if you
weren't here.

617
00:41:13,590 --> 00:41:16,240
You don't have to know any more tricks
than that, son.

618
00:41:17,070 --> 00:41:19,390
Hello? You got smart written all over
you.

619
00:41:19,391 --> 00:41:20,969
It's for you.

620
00:41:20,970 --> 00:41:22,830
Your daughter -in -law? Oh, thank you.

621
00:41:24,810 --> 00:41:25,860
Betty?

622
00:41:26,310 --> 00:41:28,170
Barnaby, I had Agnes on the other line.

623
00:41:28,171 --> 00:41:30,369
She just got one of those crank calls
again.

624
00:41:30,370 --> 00:41:31,750
I thought they were all over.

625
00:41:32,810 --> 00:41:34,610
Well, it's not quite all over, Betty.

626
00:41:35,970 --> 00:41:38,260
Keep talking to her. I'll get right over
there.

627
00:41:43,279 --> 00:41:44,920
Agnes? Agnes?

628
00:42:25,420 --> 00:42:26,740
It's all right, Miss Evans.

629
00:42:27,580 --> 00:42:28,630
There's no one here.

630
00:42:31,900 --> 00:42:34,180
There's never been anyone here, has
there?

631
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:40,259
What? You deserve every acting award you
ever received, there's no doubt about

632
00:42:40,260 --> 00:42:41,310
it.

633
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:48,780
Lloyd Kilgore saw your performance the
other night and it cost him his life.

634
00:42:48,781 --> 00:42:50,719
That's the way it happened, isn't it?

635
00:42:50,720 --> 00:42:51,770
The what?

636
00:42:52,340 --> 00:42:53,980
You never did want to do that show.

637
00:42:55,180 --> 00:42:58,100
You were just looking for an excuse to
find a way out.

638
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,510
You don't know what it's like out there
every night.

639
00:43:03,220 --> 00:43:04,740
All those faces.

640
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:07,610
Studying me.

641
00:43:09,860 --> 00:43:11,220
Daring at me.

642
00:43:12,980 --> 00:43:17,780
Those stupid faces eating at me.

643
00:43:21,540 --> 00:43:23,820
I'm never going to do that again.

644
00:43:33,420 --> 00:43:36,190
It's all right, Shirley. You don't have
to do it anymore.

645
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:15,490
My poor baby.

646
00:44:16,720 --> 00:44:18,180
I always had a feeling.

647
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:20,660
I always had a feeling.

648
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,660
It was terror that destroyed her, Mr.
Parrish.

649
00:44:24,661 --> 00:44:28,919
Shirley Evans was scared to death of the
millions of people who loved her.

650
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:32,050
My God, the torture she must have gone
through all these years.

651
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:36,440
Being on the stage must have been like
the fire of Hades for her.

652
00:44:37,540 --> 00:44:38,760
How could you know that?

653
00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,800
I didn't until that big old police dog
next door started me to thinking.

654
00:44:45,610 --> 00:44:46,660
Incredible to me.

655
00:44:46,790 --> 00:44:47,840
But you were right.

656
00:44:47,841 --> 00:44:51,769
I couldn't hear it barking the night I
called Cheryl on the phone.

657
00:44:51,770 --> 00:44:55,649
Neither did your wife later, which meant
that no one had entered or left through

658
00:44:55,650 --> 00:44:56,700
those doors.

659
00:44:56,701 --> 00:45:00,589
Miss Evans was here alone until you and
the police came, and then the dog

660
00:45:00,590 --> 00:45:01,640
started barking.

661
00:45:01,750 --> 00:45:04,400
What about the night Kilgore came
snooping around?

662
00:45:04,410 --> 00:45:06,150
I heard the dog barking myself.

663
00:45:06,770 --> 00:45:09,770
Miss Evans was in here putting on the
act of her life.

664
00:45:10,610 --> 00:45:14,709
Kilgore had seen her, so it was a matter
of life and death to her, so she killed

665
00:45:14,710 --> 00:45:20,859
him. Then in one last desperate effort,
she tried to involve Agnes by calling up

666
00:45:20,860 --> 00:45:23,900
on the other line and hitting her in the
head.

667
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:27,550
She knew that someone was listening on
the phone. She had an audience.

668
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,110
Don't talk about her like she's a
criminal now.

669
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,180
A bump on the head is nothing.
