How did you do?

Well, ladies, this is your lucky day. Tell me.

As your lawyer, it is my duty to inform you $5,000 you found will be

yours in 30 days.

Oh, no!

Now, who actually found the money? Me.

Now, wait a minute. I was with her when she picked it up.

Then the law says you divide the money equally.

provided you make proper application to the court.

Now, as I've told you, that involves writ of certiorari, state and county tax

stamps, affidavit, transcript fees, ad hoc infinitum. A total of $1,000.

In other words, we spend $500 each to get back $5,000?

That's it.

Here's my $500.

Oh, wow, my lousy son-in-law only gave me $200.

Will that do?

Well... It'll have to do.

Now, I'll file the necessary papers, and I'll call you in approximately 30 days,

as soon as court approval comes through. You can pick up the money in my office.

My car.

There.

Bye, ladies.

What a break, I tell you. What a fantastic break. Hey, there's a cab. Are

you going east or west?

North. OK, I'll see you later. Uh-huh.

Bye bye. Bye bye.

Plucking fruit off... Well,

Mr. Lovejoy, can I pick a mark or can I pick a mark? Ms. Lovejoy, honey, your

instincts are pure gold.

A few more like today and you'll go to college.

Oh, why not a few more now, today?

It's still early.

Why not?

Yeah, why not? Yeah, why not?

Oh, Arnold, I think we're going to love Hawaii.

Oh, yeah.

Charlie Walter's bag man.

Every Friday, he takes the same route.

Makes no attempt to hide it, change it, in broad daylight.

As if he's telling the world this is Charlie's town.

Want to stay in business?

Pay him off.

Shut up, or you'll get your head broken.

The route ends here, at Charlie's house, every Friday at 4 o'clock.

The kingpin himself,

Charlie Walker.

Today we move in at 5 after 4.

Grab them together.

Buttrell, the money, and Charlie.

And the little black book if we get lucky.

One witness, one witness can put them away for 10 to 20.

Frank Buttrell, your friendly accountant.

Officer!

Officer?

Yes, hello. Can I help you?

Could you tell me how to find this address?

Let's see.

You got a mark?

Oh, a beauty. Looks like a bookkeeper. And rich, too. I saw him give the cab

driver a $5 bill.

Yeah?

Uh-huh. There he is, coming out of the furniture store.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

A real pussycat, huh?

Units 3 and 4, report in.

Unit 4 to Control, in position, standing by.

Unit 3 to Control, in position and standing by.

All units posted and ready to go, Steve.

It's now 3.30.

Butrell should be crossing the corner of...

Wiley and Coco Head Avenue.

One more pick up and he heads for Charlie Walters.

Get ready to grab Buttrell.

But no shooting.

Just a little line on the skull.

And watch out for cops.

There's something screwy going on. Please come back. We have to have you

back. You have to pay our bills. You have to help us. What's going on here?

You stop hitting that child. I never saw this kid before in my life. I'm not

hitting her. Please come back. No, just go on.

Someone help me. Let's call the policeman. What kind of a human being is

this? Officer, quickly, quickly, quickly. This man. This man.

Hold it.

What's the trouble? I'll tell you exactly. This man was molesting that

child. I watched him for...

All right, hold it, hold it.

Let's see some identification.

Identification? Can't you just arrest him? What do you do with molesters? You

ask for their identification? See the identification. Take the man home!

Hey, hold it! Stop that kid!

Follow that kid.

I'll get the kid. You stay here. Nobody let him move.

Don't worry, I'll take care of this man.

You're not going to hit that child again.

Hit that child!

Thank you.

See?

Yeah, Dono.

Got something funny. Don't know how to read it.

What is it?

Buttrell just drove up to Charlie's house without the bag.

Without the bag?

It can't be. We checked him at three previous surveillance points. He had the

bag with him.

He sure doesn't have it now.

Must have been tipped.

No way, Steve.

No other way. All right, Dono, shut it down. Come in.

He pulled a gun on me. In broad daylight, a defense...

I'm telling you something, Arnold. The streets are not safe anymore.

All right, Rona. All right, all right. How many times are you gonna tell us?

Oh, I really don't understand you. Your own wife nearly gets killed, and you

don't care. I care. I care. No, you don't. You obviously don't. I care. I

care. I care.

You picked him. It was your mark.

And you, what about you?

I said to you, get his wallet. His wallet, not his suitcase.

I nearly get killed, and for what? For some yellow scratch pad, some old sail

slip? Rhoda, Rhoda, Rhoda, Rhoda, why don't you take it easy and stop

complaining for a minute?

Now, we've got the case. Why don't we open it up and see what's in it? What

could be in it? All right, get him.

Do you see what I see?

Oh, the greening of the love joys.

Oh, my genius.

Oh, my little genius.

Vassar, Radcliffe, the University of Wisconsin. You'll go to college.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute before you get to Bryn Mawr. Look at that.

Brass knuckles? Yeah.

And here's a list of... Addresses and amounts.

Look at that.

Weekly take.

$98,214.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

You mean that we flim-flammed some big shot from the mobs?

Big shot from the mobs, yeah.

Rhoda, we got to get out of here.

No! No! Wait a minute! Hello. No, will you wait a minute? Hello, hello, hello,

hello. Get me, get me.

Get me the airline's desk. The first place they're going to look is the

airlines. They're going to figure we're going to skip with the money.

Yeah, you're right.

They'll have every gate covered. Yeah, with guns and muscles.

Where do we run?

You lost a hundred grand! What are you giving? Not lost, Charlie.

I was conned. I was scammed.

Look, three people, a woman, a kid, and a guy dressed up like a cop. A guy named

Shabbat? Ain't that what you mean? He's been trying to muscle in on me for

years, and now he did it through you, huh? No, Charlie. What kind of deal did

he make with you, Frank?

You split down the middle and Shabbat gets my list, huh?

What kind of deal?

No deal. It was a cut. I swear to you, Charlie. Yeah, I know.

A woman, a kid, and a guy dressed like a cop.

Charlie?

Suppose he was telling us the truth.

Ah, come on!

Suppose he was.

And I made a terrible mistake.

I tried to stop him, Charlie, but the bus is ready. All right, Willie, it's

all right.

We've got nothing to hide.

Come on in, McGarrett. Sit down.

Someone else, I'd ask for a warrant, but you, you're always welcome.

Let's talk about Frank Buttrell.

Well, what about Frank?

Game time, Charlie?

Well, you don't play, you don't win.

What card's you holding, McGarrett?

We know Frank came here yesterday at 4 o'clock without the bag.

And what's left of Frank was found in Cahey Lagoon this morning.

What happened, Charlie? Did he double-cross you?

Bag? Double-cross?

What else could account for three bullet holes in his fancy shirt?

Oh, what a terrible thing to happen.

To a nice shirt.

You like that?

Thirty bucks.

Without the monogram.

That's not for you, McGarrett. On a cop's salary, you stick to bargain

basements, McGarrett.

I want candy. So get candy. You know how to get candy. Oh, and get a paper, too.

You stop rattling that thing. I can't help it. One suitcase inside of another

one that way.

Yes? This is your lucky day.

Oh? We're the Lovejoy, suite 412.

Oh, yes.

That is, that's the name we're traveling under.

Fashion design.

One must take precautions.

Industrial espionage.

You know?

Sneaky peeky.

Yes.

Well, this is Miss Rhoda, my fashion coordinator.

Hiya, pal. How do you do?

We have these darling Hawaiian designs for our new fall show.

No one must see them before publication.

You know what I mean?

Don't worry about a thing, Mr. Lovejoy.

Thank you.

Can I have change for a quarter, please?

Certainly.

And take off this candy.

All righty. And a paper, too.

Keep the change.

Well, thanks, but that's really not necessary.

Will that kid give me a quarter?

Mommy, Daddy, look!

Hurry. Hurry, hurry.

Ships.

Ships, ships sailing. Ships, ships sailing tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow.

Mercury, Mercury, Plato, Medici, Cornwall, Cornwall. Isn't that the one?

Yeah, yeah.

I wonder if I might tell just a few words to my wife and daughter.

Mr.

Kwan, we're the Lovejoys.

We're friends of, uh... Red Colt in New Orleans.

Up here, 21.

Red said if we ever needed a favor.

What kind of favor?

We want a sale.

All three of us.

To the mainland?

That's easy.

That's easy.

Go to the office and buy some tickets.

Uh, no, you see, well, we have a... A slight,

um... Yeah, I bet you do.

Three people, third class,

1,800 bucks.

Okay.

Plus two grand more for listing you under Namer Smith.

You got that much?

We'll get it.

You have it here at four today.

Here? Here.

We sail at ten in the morning.

Four o'clock with the money.

Mr. Quan, we'll be here.

I figured as much.

Was this the man?

Was it Frank Buttrell?

Mr. Fraser, we know that he was in your store on Friday. We know because we had

him staked out.

We know what he did to you and the others, but we need a witness to prove

it in court.

Now, Buttrell is dead, but there'll be other bag men like him, unless we grab

the man at the top.

Will you help us?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Don't fight!

Now, I want the truth.

What happened to my money, my lists?

Because if I don't get it, your boy Shabbat is going to have a new home in a

box, and you likewise.

Now give it to me nice and straight, and no bull about a woman, a kid, and a guy

dressed like a cop.

We'll just get the money, and we'll get our passage, and everything will be.

We are dealing with savages, ruthless savages. Take it easy. Things could be

worse. They are.

Will you just stop pushing this kind of... Let's not waste any

time.

You got the dough on the black book.

You tell me where.

Or she goes now.

The dough.

Where's the dough?

Arnold.

It's in the hotel, in the safe.

But I gotta get it out myself. They won't give it to anybody else.

All right, we'll go together.

Bad news. Coming up next.

Too many of them. Let's get out of here.

I'll talk to you later.

Love joys.

Love joys.

The con man?

Could be.

Get word out on the coconut waters.

I give a G, a big one, to anyone who fingers it.

What a mess.

Looks like those pictures from St.

Valentine's Day.

We're gonna get what they never got in Chicago.

What's that?

It's a conviction.

What do you got?

Impressions on a pad.

Looks like a name.

Yeah.

Lovejoys.

Get out an APB. Anyone with this name on the island, I want them picked up.

Now, this is terrific.

This was terrific. I really needed Hawaii.

I really needed pistols in my face. All right, Rhoda, all right. Coming here

wasn't my idea.

Well, now it's my fault. I suppose my fault. All right, who picked the mark?

Well, who picked the scam, huh?

Oh, so now it's my fault, is it? It's my fault. Well, if the shoe fits, wear it.

That's right, if the shoe fits, wear it.

If the shoe fits, wear it. Yeah, that's right. We knew when we were well off,

Marietta, when we were well off, you should never let go. Don't bring my

mother into it.

Mommy! What, what, what?

Someone's knocking.

Who is it?

Vero, State Police.

Stop them, stop them. I'll see if I can find a way out of here.

I know.

You cannot go out the window. You're not Errol Flynn. You've got a better idea.

Yes. I'll handle this. I'll just handle it.

I'll handle this.

Can you show any identification?

Yes, if you'll open the door.

Just a second. Whatever you do. Just a second, please.

Yes?

Here's the ID.

And I've got some news for your husband.

What? We've got a man on the roof and we've got a man below.

The news is, forget it.

You arrived in Hawaii September the 8th. You've been staying at the Hula Hotel

without any visible means of support.

This child in school?

We do our own tutoring.

Between tutoring, you've had five arrests in five states for bunco,

swindling, and fraud.

What did you think Hawaii was going to be, one big, fat, juicy pineapple?

Oh, no, no, Mr. McGarrett. No, that's all in the past.

We're here to start a new life.

We've reformed. By grabbing take money from the toughest mob in Honolulu?

We've pieced the story together from actual eyewitnesses to the heist.

It involved a woman, a child, and a man in policeman's uniform.

Chin, how about an ice cream soda for this little girl, huh?

Okay?

Now, not chocolate. You know how you break out. You promise me now, no

chocolate. Okay.

You're in trouble, my friends. You know that?

That bag had lists of extortion victims, and Walters has got to assume that

you saw those lists, which makes you witnesses.

Now, whether they get their money back or not, they're not going to let you

stay alive.

Now, you've got only one chance, and that's with us.

You help us get Charlie Walters, and I'll see that you get protection and

safe conduct back to the mainland.

I'm thinking about the child.

I'd hate to see her in an orphanage at that early age.

Mr. McGarrett, we're small potatoes. You know that.

The Swalters, those people, they're in a different league.

Look, we can't exist unless they let us.

We break the rules, the game is over.

And they can find us anywhere.

And the first rule.

No deals with cops.

Your lives are in danger, you know that?

Your lives are in danger.

And you're buying their rules?

We have to.

It's the life we're in.

Life? For how long?

They checked the suitcase at the desk, but... Wrong description.

Bigger? Right.

All right, Dano, don't let it out of your sight. Get a court order, but don't

make a move on it.

I want Charlie to go after that bag and have it when we grab it.

Were the Lovejoys expecting you?

In a way, yes.

You see, we're old friends.

I tell you what, we'll just wait for them.

Now what? We can't get the money, no money, no ship.

Well, we'll just have to work for it now. Come on.

and I have to go to work. You know where you're going. Double feature. The

popcorn? G rating.

GP. Oh, don't argue. Let's go.

Just ask for Mr. Bartlett.

He'll give you a job and a place where you can stay.

Oh, Reverend, I just... I don't know what to say.

You said it all by coming here.

right after being released from prison.

Well, it's just my lucky day.

You know, we're gonna need a car for a few hours to move some of our stuff out

of storage.

Oh, yeah.

You wouldn't have them.

Oh, thou of little faith.

Wherefore didst thou doubt?

I'll lend you 600 with the car's collateral, Reverend.

May the Lord bless thee.

1,000 with the car's collateral, Reverend. And keep thee.

Gas deal. I'll give you 1,400 bucks for the car if the radio works.

And deliver thee to life eternal.

Amen. 27, 28, 29, $3,250.

The deal was $3,800.

Mr. Kwan, we ran out of time.

Yeah, we'll get the rest tonight.

No good. The deal's off. What? Well, please, please, please. We'll have it

here. First thing in the morning. And if we don't, you don't have to take us.

What have you got to lose?

Yeah, yeah.

First thing in the morning.

Lovejoy.

Who wants them?

Telephone.

Nobody knows we're here but Kwan. I know.

The Lovejoys are another couple. They just left.

You better answer this phone or somebody's gonna get hurt.

Yes? So, we finally meet, Mr. Lovejoy.

Seems we got mutual acquaintances in the shipping business.

Who is this? What do you want?

I want to make a deal with you.

You've got something of mine.

I've got something of yours.

So we'll trade.

What do you mean you've got something of mine?

Mommy.

Daddy.

Here, I'll take it. Thank you, Dad.

Now, we tie this money in with Charlie or we don't stand a chance in court.

We have to mark the money.

What if he notices something?

Our child could get killed.

We'll just have to see that he doesn't.

You people took a chance coming here, asking for our help.

For your kid's sake, are you prepared to take one more?

This is a transmitter. Self-contained, transistorized.

Thank you.

How are you, genius?

I'm OK.

Don't worry. Don't worry. She's fine.

We took good care of the kid.

Well, we've got some business.

Radiology negative.

The rest of it? It's all... 10,000 more!

Where is it?

Hold it. Hold it.

That's it. That's it. All cars, all cars, move into target area.

You folks are going to take a nice ride in the country.

Wait a minute. We did our part.

You promised you'd let us go.

Oh, but I am.

All the way to Kahuku Point. Charlie, come here.

Get the back. Get the back.

You pukey little double-crosses. Back alley full of cops. They're all over the

place.

In the incinerator.

Burn it!

Five-oh.

What now, McGarrett? A ticket for overtime parking?

Looks like you could afford it, Charlie.

Yeah, that's nice, ain't it?

You know, I've been saving ever since I was a kid.

Nothing wrong with that, is there?

We'll soon find out, Che.

That's yours, not mine. Hot money you brought in here to frame me. Look, the

rest of it's mine, but not this. This is theirs.

He's offering you a bribe, Arnold. What do you say?

That's your money, Mr. Walters.

All of it.

That's the money we took from Frank Buttrell and brought to you.

We'll testify to that.

You see, Charlie?

Don't mess around with Errol Flynn. I'll book him.

Chin, mark this for evidence.

You set me up, McGarrett. This is entrapment. I'm a title of court. I want

to see my lawyer.

$3,250.

The money you gave Kwon and the docs.

You never give up, do you?

This will cover the reverence car, loans from two companies, and a few other odds

and ends.

I think we can persuade these people not to press charges, providing you promise

never to come back to Hawaii.

Promise?

We promise.

Oh, yes, of course. Of course we promise. Promise.

Adam, three tickets to the mainland.

The plane leaves in an hour.

Your bags are all packed and there's a car waiting for you downstairs.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

There must be hundreds of dollars there, maybe even thousands.

Can we keep it?

Well, if we put up the money for legal fees.

Oh, but it's his car.

Shouldn't we share it with him?

Yes.

Yes, we should.

We'll tell him.

Driver?

Oh, driver?

This is your lucky day.
