Thank you.

You don't look so good, baby.

Never mind how I look.

You got something for me?

That's my question.

Look, Lou, I... Wait, wait, wait a minute. Hold it right there. Listen,

Lou. You said a dime bag.

I said, have you got the price? You said, yeah, you did.

Well, I thought I'd have it for you.

What you thought don't buy nothing.

I'll have it for you in a couple of days.

Great. Call me then.

Lou, my God, I'm begging you. Let go of me.

Now, look, I'm going to forget about the two bills you already owe me.

But I don't want to hear from you again.

Never. You understand?

Anything?

Anything?

Anything? Have you looked at yourself, sweetheart?

All you can do for me is turn my stomach.

Danny, those affidavits on the McFarland case come in yet?

Right. Oh, good. Thank you.

Stephen? Hi, Duke. You wouldn't believe this, but he took the day off. You're

kidding. Nope. He went sailing.

Who was the superintendent of order who talked him into that?

The governor.

Well, that explains it. But even he needed some help from the Speaker of the

House.

Anything important, dude?

No, I'll catch him later.

Heard the news?

What? On the radio, just as I drove up.

Lou Chang was found dead on Waimanawa Beach, lying beside his car with a slug

in his back.

No kidding.

Well, I can't think of anybody more deserving, huh?

Well, HPD got any line on who dropped him?

With a pusher like Chang, it's standing room only time.

We called and called.

Didn't get an answer. They said your phone had been disconnected. When we

went to your place, all the landlady would say was that you were gone. Where

have you been?

In a clinic.

Oh, Dina.

I had to have help.

I finally realized I couldn't do it alone.

Honey, you weren't alone.

Not with you, maybe.

But with them.

Sitting around once a week, listening to them gripe because the jerks they're

married to give them hell when dinner's late.

or bawled their eyes out because he's chasing the new girl at the office?

What do they know?

They know what they feel.

And it helps to get it out.

Look, I'm not knocking it.

It's just that I had to go another route.

And it worked.

Hey, look at my head. Is it on straight?

Perfect. You look wonderful.

And how about you two? Has everything been coming up roses now that you've

been letting it all hang out?

How's Johnny?

He needs another operation.

And how is sitting in on this talk-a-thon gonna get it for him?

Look, talk may help you, but it can't help your kid.

There's only one thing that can solve that problem, yours and mine, and yours

too, if you really meant what you said in there a couple of months ago.

Money.

I can't argue with that.

Now, all we have to do is find a way to get it.

There's always one way.

How?

Steal it.

You can't be serious.

Why not?

Because it's... It's crazy.

We couldn't do it.

I could.

And how do you know you couldn't?

I... I just couldn't.

Then what was all that talk about how you'd drop that husband of yours right

now if only you had a stake of your own? Was it just talk?

No.

Were you suggesting... Maybe you're right.

Maybe it is crazy.

All I know is that if I don't get my hands on some money, I'm gonna go right

back down the slide.

No, Dina.

Not if you're... If what?

I'm strong enough?

Well, I'm not, and I know it.

How do I live?

An ex-junkie with a record from here to Boston?

Nobody'd hire me to take out the garbage.

What about your family? My family?

They'd lock the doors if they saw me walking home across the Pacific. This is

one little orphan Annie whose daddy Warbucks won't give her the time of day.

I have to get home.

And I have to go to the hospital.

I'll drop you on the way.

We'll be in touch.

I hope so.

there was one good thing i got out of those rap sessions in there

the way the three of us well

sort of found one another

i guess i wanted a mother again so badly

i adopted two of them

Well, that's a wrap-up.

Sam Mandel, Phil Carver, 15 years.

No parole.

Still some mopping up to do on their North Shore operation, though.

HPD can handle that, can't they? No problem.

Okay, how's the department doing on the Liu Chang hit? No leads yet.

Odd thing about it, we found almost a half a kilo of heroin under the backseat

of Chang's car.

If it was a contract job, a pro-hit man would have given the car a toss and

found it in two seconds.

What you're saying is that it was enamored? It's beginning to smell like

it.

Mrs. Scott, Mr. Hoffman of the business office would like to see you before you

leave.

Bringing the unpaid balances of yesterday to $1,436.80.

And now I understand Dr.

Lindum feels that additional surgery is necessary.

Tremendously expensive surgery.

Yes. With the post-operative care he'll require, it could run to over $10,000.

Your medical insurance has run out, I see.

Also that you're divorced.

But what about the boy's father?

Couldn't he help?

I don't know where he is.

I'm not pressing understand, Mrs. Scott, but the hospital... All the hospital has

to do is take care of my son, Mr. Hoffman.

You'll get your money.

Every cent of it.

Maggie?

You got the phone, Maggie.

Maggie!

Phone.

What are you doing in the laundry now, across the street?

Hello? Margaret?

Faye, I've been thinking about what Dina said.

Maybe we should take her up on her idea.

I've been thinking the same thing.

I've been thinking a lot about it.

Where's it go after Hawaii Kai?

Along Kalaniana Ole Highway.

Past Makapu Point.

The best place would be here.

Not sure what forest.

All right, be there.

I don't want it.

What are you going to use, your charm?

Dina, take it.

Look, maybe we should... It's too late for maybes. Now take this thing.

It's not even loaded. You don't have to use it, Margaret.

Put it in your bag.

Let's get on that bus.

Well, folks, our next stop will be Kailua, a picturesque beach community.

Most of the vegetation you see on the island has been planted either by birds

or human hands.

Right now, looking to the left, here we see the beautiful Mount Ulumana.

Ulumana tells about the chief back in the early years.

What happened was the chief did wrong to the people in the early years.

So the people gathered together, slid him from head to toe.

Then they threw his body to the sea and elected a new chief who made very, very

sure he never did any wrong to the people.

Turn off here into Sherwood Forest.

Okay, this is a holdup.

Everybody do as I say and nobody will get hurt.

Okay.

Stop here.

Put your cash and jewelry in the bag.

Come on.

Drive and keep driving.

wild one, Steve.

What do you mean a wild one? Hold up near Waimanalo. Two women knocked over a

tour bus.

Two women armed robbery? Yeah.

HPD's getting the details now.

Donald, tourists are bread and butter to these islands and they don't come here

to get ripped off by men or women.

Give HPD a hand, report back.

Right.

Why don't you take the back seat again?

What do you got, Duke?

You name it, I got it.

I can't get the same description twice.

Hair, clothes, nothing.

You know what witnesses are like after they've looked down the end of a gun

barrel. Yeah. I did get one thing.

A guy claims he took six pictures of the two girls as they ran from the scene. I

don't know how good it is.

The guy was pretty jumpy.

Well, let's find out.

Get it to the lab.

Right. I'll have a look inside.

Which one are you talking about? The one at the front of the bus. That was the

other one. The one in the front of the bus.

Ladies, ladies. I ought to know. She was sitting with her gun right in my face.

Can you describe the gun?

Yes, it was small.

Small? It was the biggest gun I ever saw in my life.

All right, ladies, sir.

Thank you very much. You've been a great help.

How's it going, Chin?

Swell. If I bought every description I've heard so far, I'd say ten different

women held up that bus.

See if you can eliminate about eight of them. I'm going back to the office.

Then they got off the bus and told the driver to drive on.

Descriptions of the women vary.

No chance of getting HPD composites or computer readouts.

Best estimate of their take is $10,000 cash and jewelry.

Didn't even bother with traveler's checks.

Lab boys get any prints?

No, not a smear. But HPD did come up with some fresh tire tracks near the

scene, behind some heavy foliage.

But not good enough for plaster casts.

Okay, I'll be with Che at the lab.

What have you got, Che?

Take a look.

Best I could do. Guy was pretty shaky.

This camera was set at normal shutter speed. It wouldn't freeze the women's

movements. That's why they're so blurred.

There is no way we can run a make on these.

Any way you can clear them up?

There is a process used by the space program.

It's called computer image enhancement.

It was originally developed to improve the clarity of lunar and planetary

photos. It, uh...

Removes distortion, magnifies, enhances resolution.

Might give us a better picture.

Give it a try.

The whole time it was happening, I kept telling myself, I'm not doing this. It's

someone else.

I'm not doing it.

It's pretty unreal, isn't it?

What if we get caught?

Then we get caught.

There isn't anything we can do about it.

So don't think about it.

There is one thing we could do.

Stop.

Not until I get the money for Johnny.

If I should lose him,

I wouldn't care what happened to me.

And would prison be that much worse than what you've got now?

How far do you think that will take you?

How long could you live on it?

Look, I've been there. I know.

After Lyle left me, I... It took six months just to get the

nerve to go out and look for a job.

And then after I found the nerve, I found out something else.

There wasn't one damn thing I knew how to do, except keep house.

Where do you see what I've got?

You saw the jewelry.

To a friend of a friend of mine.

2,000 for you.

6,000?

And 2,000 for you.

And 2,000 and what for me?

You got 1,400.

Keep this for me. If I take it home, Ed might find it.

Well, girls, when do we go back to work?

Everybody stay in their seats.

Cute.

Real cute.

Put it in the bag.

Those same two women again, Steve.

One of them thought she was in a shooting gallery.

Lucky no one was seriously hurt.

Thank God for that. Anyone see a getaway car this time?

No. How much did they get?

About $5,000 in cash.

No telling yet how much in jewelry.

They skipped traveler's checks this time, too, as near as we can tell.

OK, Frank, thank you.

We've got a bigger problem than we figured, gentlemen.

One of those women obviously flipped out for some reason.

Now, if it happens again, she may start blasting people instead of windows.

Get out there, give Frank and Duke a hand. Hit this and hit it hard before it

gets completely out of hand.

It was stupid.

Why are we carrying guns if we're not supposed to use them?

You didn't have to use it.

I think we better stop right now. No way!

We made a deal.

We said 10,000 apiece, and that's what we're gonna get.

I'm wondering if you're in this for something more than money.

What's that supposed to mean?

You think I'm still on junk, don't you?

Don't you?

No. Well, I don't care who's in this for what.

I'm going home.

To what?

Tina.

It's all right.

I don't know what happened. I just lost my head.

Look, I'm just as scared as you are.

What about you?

Sure blew it, didn't I?

What about Johnny?

I'll get the money some other way.

Look, you can have my share.

I'll sell all the jewelry that we got today and that'll give you enough to...

No, Dina.

I don't want it.

Thanks anyway.

Still friends?

Of course. Call me?

Sure.

Very impressive.

How did you do it? Take a look.

As you know...

Pictures are made up of a composition of small spots, or dots, called rhizomarks.

Now, the enhancement process removes distortion by utilizing the computer to

locate these rhizomarks, and then transforms the picture into correct

geometry based on the observed location of the rhizomarks.

What does that mean in English, Jack?

Simply, the computer locates the dots, cleans them up, and puts them back in

the right place. Good. That's the way I like it. Let's get right to the nitty

-gritty, huh?

Well, the wigs and sunglasses sure don't help any.

I doubt if we could get a make.

What is this area right here?

Looks like a shadow, but could be most anything.

How far can you take that enhancement process?

No guarantee, but I'll do a version of that section.

Good.

I understand you boys dug some slugs out of that bus.

Right. Dave's working on it now. Keep on it, Jay. Let me know.

What is this?

You know I balled tonight.

Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot.

You've been forgetting an awful lot lately since you've been going in them

bull sessions with those dames. Ed, just give me the shirt.

I've had it up to here.

You go to one more of those hen parties, I'll give you something to bellyache

about.

No doubt about it.

McGarrett. Yeah, Che?

Are you sitting down?

Well, it's kind of hard to drive standing up.

We just got hit with something from out in left field.

Those slugs we ducked from the tour bus came from the same gun that dropped Liu

Chang.

Steve?

Are you there?

Yeah, Che.

Are you sure?

Positive.

Dano?

Hey, Dirt Steve.

The getaway car.

And a third party, huh?

The car looks like a 1964 Comet.

Jay couldn't bring out the license numbers.

Well, maybe we can get it.

Have motor vehicles give us the names of every registered owner of this model on

the island. Have copies made and get them to HPD. Right.

Hear about Liu Chang?

Yeah, same gun.

Same gun.

175 to Central.

Central dispatch.

I've got a tour bus parked on the old Diamond Head Road near the tunnel.

Could be those female suspects on a possible 211.

Send me some backup. I'm going to check it out.

10-4.

Yeah.

Who got it?

Tom Kamaka.

You're on the force.

I knew Tom and his wife Miley pretty well.

Maybe I should be the one to break the news.

Yeah, Duke, maybe you should.

What about the dead woman?

On her way to the morgue.

Any ID?

Tentative. We found an envelope in her pocket addressed to a Mrs. Edward

Hudson. Chin's checking the address now.

But whoever she is, Steve, she didn't kill Officer Kamaka.

How do you know that?

Empty. It hasn't been fired recently.

If ever.

Saturday night special, huh? Steve, Danny, got a report from Motor Vehicles.

They've got a Margaret Hudson at the address on that envelope we found.

Okay, Chin.

You and Dano hit it.

Your wife was killed while attempting armed robbery.

Maggie?

Ah, some mistake.

I'm sorry, Mr. Hudson, it's no mistake.

Your wife and two other women...

have pulled off three tour bus robberies.

Close to $25,000 in jewelry and cash taken and a police officer killed.

No, you've got to be wrong.

Well, these were taken by a passenger at the scene of the first robbery.

I

can't

believe it.

It don't make no sense.

I worked my butt off for that broad 10 hours a day.

But that wasn't enough for her.

She had her going.

What about the other two women? Do you know them?

No, she never told me nothing.

Got no idea where she went or what she did whenever she left the house?

She spent all her time at the woman's center.

Women's center?

Yeah. Yakking all day with a bunch of broads about how tough their life was.

Williams, Kelly, 50. We'd like to ask a few questions.

Won't you come in? Thank you.

What can I do for you today?

Do you recognize these two women?

The hair is not right, but I'm sure this is Cindy and Carol.

That woman has been identified as a Margaret Hudson.

You could be right, but I know her only as Carol.

Well, how's that?

Let me explain.

The women in the encounter groups here at the center don't use their real name.

It's a policy.

Even though some of them become friends, they may have a social, professional, or

even a family life to protect.

Do you know this woman?

Only as Laura.

Do you know where we can find her? Or the other two?

No. Because of the nature of our sessions, the center doesn't require any

registration, and we don't keep any records.

OK, thank you.

Gonna invite me in?

Can I get you a drink?

I'll get it.

You said you were gonna call.

I've been busy.

Join me.

No, thanks.

I stopped by your office. They said you quit.

I've been looking for another job.

In Honolulu? Yes.

You know, I was thinking.

We should send some flowers to Margaret's funeral.

Anonymously, of course.

You felt so strongly about her.

It's really a pity you won't be around when she's... late to rest.

You really thought you could leave without me knowing?

I called the hospital and they told me your son's been transferred to another

hospital on the Big Island.

All right, so I'm leaving. What business is it of yours? Half of Margaret's

money!

Take it, all of it, and get out of here!

All right, if that's the way you want it.

Still not too late to change your mind.

We never really needed Margaret anyway, and it would save me the trouble of

finding someone else to work with.

Someone else?

You're not thinking of... You're out of your mind.

Every policeman on the island is looking for you. And sooner or later you'll get

caught. And you think that'll be the end of it?

Oh, no.

If I get caught, you get caught.

Thank you.

Yeah. We talked to a Miss Keola.

She's the counselor for the encounter group at the Women's Center.

Yeah, she recognizes all three women, but she says none of the members at the

encounter session use their real names.

Encourage them to really unload.

There's no registration.

The center doesn't keep any record of its women in order to protect their

anonymity. So we hit another dead end, huh?

I've got a list of all the owner of 1964 Comet sedans. There's over 200 of them.

200.

Well, at least that's better than the computer came up with on her.

Okay, gentlemen, we have a picture of our driver with no name.

But if she has a driver's license, Motor Vehicles has a picture of her with a

name. Frank, contact the Bureau.

Get a copy of the driver's license. Every woman wants a 64 common.

We might get lucky.

Chin, warm up the computer.

On it.

Mr. Hudson?

Yeah? Now, what's your name?

That's not important.

You're on those bus heists with my wife, weren't you?

We came here to discuss $5,000, remember?

I'm listening.

I want you to do something for me.

What?

I want you to... to kill her.

What? You heard me.

What makes you think I'd do something like that?

Because I know you, Mr. Hudson.

From Margaret.

I know every brutal, selfish, greedy bone in your body.

So please, don't, uh, try to fool me.

Half now.

You, uh, want this Diane?

Dina Hale dead so bad, why don't you do it yourself?

I would.

If I could.

But I can't. The rest, when it's done.

I don't know. I'd have to think about it.

I'd like you to call me soon.

My number.

Elaine Amako.

Audrey Ames.

Jean Onopoa.

Hello?

you

so

Anita Malemo.

Wilma Nelson.

Oh, wait, wait, wait a minute.

Let me explain, will you? Let me explain. Empty your pockets.

That's all.

You!

Oh, wait a minute. Wait a minute.

She paid me to kill you.

She? Yeah, Scott.

Her name's Scott.

She gave me... Gonna give me $5,000.

And half now, and half...

Lucy Sams.

Fay Scott.

That's it.

Right. Right. Got it, Chin. Good work.

You and Frank get there on the double. I'll meet you.

Dino?

Dino? Let's go.

Read them their rights, Al.

Then book them.

Murder one, two counts for this one.
