Tonight, I'm Spencer for hire. I'll forget the vehicle.

Isn't that Mike in his family?

It's like your friend might have killed a lady up the lake. What?

Found some of the dead woman's credit costs. It's a lovely problem.

Mike, I couldn't kill anybody. Did you kill that woman? No.

I'm going to have to prove that.

$70 million inheritance buys a lot of motor from murder.

You dumped me for the old man. I think I'm gonna have to kill her.

I loved Linda. Friends of yours.

She shouldn't have slept in there.

Come on, you should go.

There's something about New England around Thanksgiving.

Late autumn, with the first bite of cold in the air,

and nature showing off colors that could make an artist cry.

It's a time of year to head for the country.

not that you had to go far.

The Plymouth was only 40 minutes from town,

but it might as well be a different world,

which it was of course for the pilgrims who landed there in 1620.

For Susan and me, it would be two days without

phones and citycares, two days alone with

a chance to touch history. You are such a creature of habit.

How many years have you been coming with Thanksgiving week? Six? Seven?

These costumes? I think right.

So these people are portraying actual original settlers.

Each one learns a life history of the person applying.

And so if you talk to them, they're asking a question.

They'll answer you in the end. Yeah, well, with that background.

How do you know so much about this? I read it in this fancy brochure.

They gave me an away in color pictures and everything.

You always one step ahead of me, aren't you?

Can you imagine being 3,000 miles away from home and no convenience stores?

No minimons? No credit cards. No delis. No Mexican food. No Mexican? No.

You speak of food, but we're not for God's good problems.

That first winter we might have starved, but we like any other farmers concerned

with the harvesting of crops and such.

That's not the one who lays the golden eggs, is it? I'm sorry, sir.

I don't know what you speak of, but we've just recently slaughtered them.

Yes, I can see that. Have any second thoughts about staying in England?

Perhaps to the first. especially whilst we were on the vessels making the crossing.

I spent the entire crossing of my stomach and my throat. I'll not go back there.

That'll go luck. Thank you, Master. It's just a good buy. Safe travels.

You look very skimmy-ish today, huh? You look like a turkey yourself.

I'm making a chicken. It's about your now. Come on. Did she say Kaminsky?

I think so. Why do you know them? Well, you said, uh, comments.

You might be where in the army to get a big mic

and this could be fought each other kind of thing.

Mike. Hey Mike. Mike.

Spencer? Yeah, how are you doing?

that there.

Chief, can I

understand if there was a witness?

Why don't you take their statement down in the tail?

They were hiking by here yesterday about the time that girl could have been killed.

So they saw a fella, looks suspicious.

Turned away like it didn't want his face seen. They saw it.

They saw he had Michigan license plates on his campers.

Remember our trainer, Billy Riemann? Garbage? Garbage, sparge, Riemman.

It's now a state senator in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

You got to be kidding me. No, I'm not.

There was a lazy Sloth, I've ever knew it by nine years. So, he's a politician now.

Yep. That makes sense. Hey, we took you guys so long. Were you been, huh?

The most is that the most man in Detroit is.

Well, what I want to know is who won when the two of you fought.

I was three rounds, split decision. Spent just split my face open when one decision.

Well, we better get going if we're going to make Hartford. Yeah, I guess so.

Why was it good to see you? Yeah. So get back the Boston, you know, and get

called in the book, Charleston. Sure will. So is it good, settled?

Get down with our tour of America. Give your buzz, all right? All right. Bye, baby.

Bye. Bye. Yeah, you too.

Did I say something wrong? The thing just turned to ice when I mentioned the fight.

He was a simple guy. Only one of us to be a...

30 year career man in the arm like his dad.

And we had our fight. He wound up with a detachment.

They weren't as good at fixing those things as they are now.

And the Army gave my medical discharge.

But we're going to the park first. Yeah, I know. I think maybe we'll like it.

We've got a man. Do we have a man? Do we? Uh, don't you like it?

I feel like you're all in this rig.

They're problem officers up against the vehicle up against the vehicle.

Spencer, isn't that Mike and his family?

to be a handy.

All right. The other hand.

The hell's going on?

Okay, honey, it's all right, stay here.

Honey, stay here.

Take your hands on my wife. Did you hit him?

Hey, George, you're the one putting it in. That little Spencer.

Little busy right now. Yeah, can you take the cups off? Mrs. Kaminsky?

Marl, take the handcuffs off the lady. Take them down to the station.

You know these folks do? I was in the Army with Mike 20 years ago.

So I'm this morning for the first time since.

Looks like your friend might have killed a lady up the lake. What? Funny seeing you.

I was going to call. You forgot to order your attorney this year. I'll judge.

Calls list at the farm. Your name will be... I don't worry. I'll cover for you.

Got you 22 pounder just as usual. How sure you that he killed this woman?

He real sure of the jury says so. Right now. Pretty sure.

Got a witness and put him at the scene. Found some of the dead woman's credit cards.

There's a glove confounder.

Thank you very much.

Mike's arrest had left his family with no place to stay.

Susan suggested we take his wife and kids

to the Plumathin with us before I visited Mike and Jail. And you get one, all right?

I'll be right back, okay? Okay.

Mike couldn't kill anybody.

How do the credit cards wind up your glove compartment? I don't know.

It's a mistake. It's just a terrible mistake. Somebody must

have put them there.

You came

to the lake side yesterday? No.

We were just a little wild.

We

were getting everything set up and then Mike came back. Came back from work.

I don't know.

Um.

He just came back and said that we had to go right away and

that we couldn't stay overnight like we had planned to

We're all set. Go to the room down the hall from us. No, no, no. We can't do that.

We can. We can, if possible. We can if you can't be got to stay somewhere.

We'll settle up later. Come on, I'll show you your room. Thank you.

I... You see, I don't know

what we're gonna do. We don't...

Hey, hey, hey. I've got an attorney for an alcohol. He'll help.

And I'll see what I can do.

In the meantime, let's go take a look at your room, okay? Thank you.

Thank you for everything.

Hey, George. Hello, Spencer.

Did the husband of the dead woman? Yeah, the older fella. The older fella?

Yeah, that's his son with him. I like to see Mike. Got you, Mike. Go on in.

See you, friend. Did a look at his fire? Yeah, I don't push it.

It's been so just cause you buy turkey from us every year. Yeah, about a 22 pounder.

That's it. Wouldn't take any wages on your friend being innocent.

Oh, boy.

Thought you could use them out.

Did you kill that woman?

what difference does it make?

By making a lot of difference to your wife and kids.

They're doing okay. We're at the plumber with us.

You can set burgers and fries at a cry to a lot.

You're living out of that camp around you.

broke.

We that have is.

kids, we close.

Too small for them, they're kind of worn. My kid genius got a homeless tennis show,

a mouse could dance through.

When we run to the room for red, she started

to cry, since she couldn't afford it.

We're on this Christmas.

That I had an operation.

and cover everything so I had to put a second on the house.

first operation didn't work.

yet another and another and then I got laid off.

Am I wrong about this?

I thought this was supposed to be America, the beautiful.

I had a plethora. Item number one. Don't worry about your family. I'll stay to it.

They're all right until we get this thing resolved. They can't pay you back.

Nobody asked you to. Item number two, did you kill that woman? No.

But I'm going to have to prove that.

But I need your help.

The truth.

One of those credit cards doing in your glove compartment. He took him.

along with $243 as I got from the wallet.

and everything like that before my life. Tell me what happened.

I parked out by the lake.

Prepare to camp there overnight.

We're not gonna look for some firewood.

The kids came running up. They were walking along the lake front.

He's out there seeing the dead woman. I told them to go back to the camp

or not to say anything to their mother. I didn't want to worry her.

I found her just where the kids said she was. She was a pretty young thing.

Reminded me of Adam when we first got married.

I was going to go back and call the cops, but then I saw her wallet.

Till then, myself as looking for identification.

But I knew what I was really after.

robbing the dead.

I still can't believe I did that.

I'm so curious.

I'll be in touch.

The death certificate put Linda Devon's age at 26.

The local gossips put her husband somewhere between 60 and 70,

which was only fair because it matched the millions he was supposed to work.

The wedding had been a surprise. Young showgirl Mary's rich older man.

Right now I was interested in the dead showgirl's best friend.

I was told that he had worked together here at the plantation.

In face, sir, I can know not of matters beyond the walls of this plantation.

I can only speak with you on our lives here in the colony.

Come on, your friend is there. Let's drop the play acting bit for just a minute.

Last, sir.

We have been told not to speak to anyone about them. By who? Mr. Devon. For husband.

No, Mr. devon, Jr. he was a stepson. Funny, he was older than she was.

He's on our board here, thus most of the public relations.

He said he didn't want this unfortunate incident

interfering with the museum programs. And he's right over there.

She and her friend are being blamed for Linda's death, and I don't think he did it.

I should not be talking with these, sir. She was your friend.

You have to talk with her. You keep saying that.

It's not as though we were really good friends.

I haven't told you we're best friends. Look, she worked here because she wanted to.

When she wanted me. She was a volunteer, but this is my job. How I feed my kids.

She missed her and some other friends.

Well, I lost her. She thought she did, but a lot of them taught behind her back.

They said she was trying to buy her way into everything.

Well, somebody else? I don't know.

There was her ex-husband. He came down a couple of times.

She always seemed kind of glad to see him. What's his name? Tony Romano.

He's a singer in Boston. Indeed so. I must depart.

My name is Alfred Devin Jr. Yes, I know.

Captain Huntley has informed me of your loyalty to your army friend.

I admire loyalty. Nonetheless, I cannot have you questioning our employees.

Your stepmother was murdered. And I believe the police have her killer in custody.

I don't.

This is our busiest weekend of the year, Mr. Spencer.

If you wish to remain as a tourist, fine.

If you have something else in mind, I must ask you to leave.

It is truly touching to see how it choked up you were about her death.

Six months ago, my father chose to marry a younger woman

without breeding all back from her since then. She has spent his money like water.

I won't have you asking questions.

The Devin family doesn't need a further public scandal. We've had enough of that.

You have a happy Thanksgiving.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Romano Romano. Romano name's getting my mind for some reason.

I mean, check my special results. It's actually what was named Monday. Was?

Yeah, it was. Dead, murdered. So you want to see how deeply the heavy

moors.

Exactly. Yeah.

Special resource working by him. You know where the fuck? This is his own lounge.

You know my bad.

Later.

Move, move!

Jack, Jack!

Let's go six!

Later, buddy. The party's later.

Look, tell Mr. Romano that a big fan of yours is out of here to see him.

Hey, fun's off, clown.

I don't get it, I just don't.

Funny Valentine has always been my big number.

I mean it's the one I did in the concerts show. Women go crazy when I sing that one.

Last night I'm right in the middle of it. This whole table just gets up.

Do me aint gonna pay that. How'd you hold it? Hey, whoever you are, hold it.

Don't shoot. I'll pay you. I'll paid whoever sent you.

I'm not here for no money, man. And what? I need a private performance.

Mr. Trubidor Singh for me. Come on. Get out of here. Get lost.

Now what's going on here? What is it? I hear you had a death in the family.

Yeah, I learned that.

police and Plymouth called in.

That's a damn shame. Yeah, before you get too choked up to talk,

let's discuss your visits down there to a, even after Linda got married again.

What's any of this to you, man? We discussing you with Model T. Yeah, well.

I never got over her, all right?

nice to go up and see her hoping that maybe she'd get me a second chance.

You know what the real joke is? Look at me, man.

I mean, I'm a guy I can get any day my want. They fall up my feet.

I can't get any damn. I don't know what it is. It's what makes me a star.

But the ones I always fall for.

No one so can hurt me.

So you accept to say anything about someone giving a trouble lately?

What do you get then?

And there was killed by some drifter. I mean, the police said they got him.

Your friend of mine said that Paulie's got the wrong man. Friend, who's that?

That is irrelevant, but he's someone who usually gets what he wants.

Like who I is, Linda.

I don't know what to say.

I guess a lot of people had it in full in the God knows she used people.

Money was all that ever mattered to her.

why she dumped me for the old man.

and he had no coming out of his ears.

Yeah, a lot of zillionaires hanging around the river air lounge, our Model T.

I think it wasn't here. I had a gig out on the cape. It's a big fancy cattillion.

I used to sing at a lot of those places. They liked me. They liked my style.

My career was really taken off then.

started to go a little tough.

She walks out on me and she hooks up with some guy she met.

It was old enough to be her grandfather.

Things like that can really get to a man we live.

Make a man have to kill her.

Me?

Oh, you've got to be crazy. I loved Linda. I'd have crawled over broken glass

to have her come back to me.

I never could have killed Linda.

Yeah.

While Hawk was chasing up husband number one, it seemed like

a good idea for me to try to touch base with number two.

was no one was home. Well, almost no one.

What do you want here, Spencer?

Well, as a matter of fact, I wanted to talk to your father. My father's not here.

Well, you're on my list to talk too again, too. I don't have time.

This is private property and you were trespassing. Isn't that funny?

Private property is exactly what I wanted to talk you about.

Property that would have been yours if your father hadn't married Linda.

Of course, she's dead now, and that makes you the number one beneficiary.

You've always stepped yourself, Mr. Spencer.

How for Devon Jr. was not a real sweet guy?

Imagine waiting all your life to inherit your father's fortune,

only to have the old guy up in Marius Center for you.

What it came down to was I still really didn't have anything

to hang on to, other than hoping Mike wasn't guilty.

So as they say when all else fails go back to the scene

of the crime, the murderer is always supposed to return.

Alfred Devin Sr. was the last person I expected to see here.

And what the hell was he doing? Was he trying to wipe out of the dirt? Mr. Devin!

Come here!

And I can talk to you about your wife.

I'm going to be in my family. But I have to please hug you.

A couple of possible explanations for Alfred

Devon's bizarre behavior popped to mind.

One was his wife's death had driven him off the deep end.

The other, of course, was that he was trying to hide something.

Well, these things are beginning to make sense.

I'm glad I'm making sense to somebody.

Motorcycle explains the autopsy. It said the blow that killed Mrs. Devon

was of extraordinary velocity. Donette took a head off.

Murderer would have had to have superhuman strength.

Unless you was being chased by a speeding motorcycle when you hit her.

I don't suppose you know of Alfred Devin Jr. has access to a motorcycle or not.

You think he's one who came out of it?

Well, he's the one who's got the most to gain by her death.

He doesn't like my questions.

And then there's his father over there, tidying up the woods, tiding up what?

Motorcycle tracks? I've known Mr. Devin all my life.

I can't believe he'd be involved in a murder or uncovering one up.

You're been a lot easier if you could have seen

who was riding that motorcycle came out of you.

Hey, one thing for sure.

Was it Mike Kaminsky?

Yeah.

Yes, sir.

Mike!

I'm just kidding. Fine, as far as I know.

Susan, pick them. Shop. Shop.

We can't afford to buy anything. Come on, relax. How can I?

This turns into my gut, you know that? I stole from the girl now.

I'm stealing from you. Now all I've done is make everything worse.

Maybe it's getting better now. What do you mean? That's what I came to tell you.

They're probably going to let you out of here this afternoon. You can.

I convinced them that you weren't involved in the killing.

What about the credit cards? Money I took.

You're still in the book for that, but I have a feeling

in the couple of days you're going to drop that too, meanwhile I've posted bail.

You? Yeah. That's great. Push your pop with the hotel room. So what the hell am I?

Your personal charity case? No, it's not charity.

You pay me back later when you can. Meanwhile, take some help.

Like we were friends.

I'd like to think that if things were reversed, you'd do the same thing for me.

Yeah, well, the argument for it started.

That's right.

20 years is a long time.

Maybe I wouldn't do the same thing for you.

I don't know who the hell I am anymore.

And your charity isn't gonna change that.

So, what are you just...

Back on!

I got to know you pretty well. You

always showed a lot of drive.

Some good, some bad.

But I never saw this.

I never sought quit.

Come on out!

You know, what's happened to you is tough.

Life beats you up pretty good. It's tough and it's sad.

But you know what the saddest thing is? You just plain gave up.

Are you?

That's right!

kids. You guys really made a fool.

It's really, the noises, oh you have a hat too.

Wow, it's done some shopping. They had a great time. I had a good time.

Shopkeepers had a really great time!

How much do we spend? How

about the Celtics? That much.

More than that much. You're a sit-pants. What happened?

Yes. What? Catch! Thank you so much. So happy.

I have more for the ladies. So, if I was Christmas is looking young at these days.

Yeah, but a little lighter in the bags.

Now, it's been so useful to say, so what you find out when you talk to the dead

and the latest husband, Mr. Donald Mike Tony Romano, and I say, how about a glass of

swaths on these songs? Then you say, what a good idea.

And then I say I'll see you upstairs. What a good ideas. Yeah.

What did you call that stuff again? Swazohondi sank. Swazhondi, sir. Yeah.

75.

So look ahead, any man who's chasing people on motorcycles

and tries to kill him with a tire arm is a man who needs his oil checked.

Your assessment of the situation is masterful.

Well, you see it's the synoptical brilliance of my brain cells that dazzle you.

Yeah, so tell me about this first husband again? Out of the troupe of the dog.

Says he loved her. She used him. No. He used him? You were impressed, weren't you?

I almost cried because the man's life plays like a bad lick to a bad tune.

I did some discreet inquiring, however. Truth.

He was the user she to use the merchandise.

Translation.

He used to give away for free the club owners

on the weekends in exchange for bookings.

What a slime.

How's it getting along without her now? I thought you'd never ask.

A month after the dead lady gets married to grandpappy money,

he opens this night's spot into which he is pouring many, many duckons.

My favorite time of year.

Happy autumn.

Grand Pappy Money.

Hmm.

He sounded like Tony Romano had perfected the act.

If his ex-wife was feeding him the money to buy and run a nightclub, the money could

only have come from one source.

Good to see you, man. Keep his hand in things.

I thought you'd be coming by.

I was acting rather strangely down at the lake today.

Do you like gardens Mr. Spencer I believe? Yes.

Yes, I do like gardens.

My wife loved him.

Linda loved everything that was beautiful.

I'm sure that's why she was.

at the lake when

I went down there today to be with her.

The last place she was alive.

for a moment.

in the peace and quiet.

I felt like at almost touch it.

then

Suddenly everything around me seemed so untidy, so unlike her.

Must have looked mad. The police are going to release Mike Kaminsky.

They don't believe it killed your wife. Anymore

than I believe the reason

has to why you were down in the woods. I don't know what you're saying.

And they're going to start looking for other possible killers.

Maybe even take a closer look at your son. My son had no reason to kill him.

$70 million in Herodon spies a lot of motor from murder.

And if he owns a motorcycle.

It does, doesn't it?

Maybe you're down in the woods. I'm tidying up motorcycle tracks.

I tried to make sure I'm wrong. I mean, maybe it's not sunny.

Maybe it's a little closer to home.

Maybe you were down there somehow trying to protect yourself.

When did you find out that your wife was giving her ex-husband money? And how much?

$50? $100,000?

Actually, it was closer to 200,000.

Just think I cared.

Do you think I was so stupid I don't know why she married me?

I'm an old man.

I've been alone.

Long time.

People are wrong, you know.

You can buy happiness.

I did.

Now sir, our interview is over.

Motorcycle tracks near the garage, that was all padlocked. That stopped you?

Well, no, we'll see. There was this dopamine pinch on the other side,

talking me out of going in. I'll be glad to introduce you. You have a first name?

You took the fifth.

of yours.

The dead men is. Well, names bands, rude events. Apparently living in Boston.

You should come down here and work as a volunteer

at the plantation from time to time.

Hey, George, isn't that striking you as rather odd? Lots of folks do. Civic pride.

Mrs. Devon. She was volunteer. Civic pride, the guys are hit men.

Well, does make one wonder.

What about Devon Jr.? He's looking for him? Well, yes, Spencer.

We're looking for it. Now, Spencer, now you're a very nice fellow.

We enjoy having you come to our little town, everything's giving.

Right now, this town is hurting. A nice lady's dead.

Now you have to take my word for it, proper police procedure is being followed.

Now this one's yours. 22 pounds, four ounces. Happy Thanksgiving, Spencer?

Yeah. Happy Thanksgiving.

again.

What did I do again? Left

me to do all the packing, all the checking out.

I'm pathological that way.

I like except that.

Have they arrested Devin Jr.? That's a very interesting point.

Actually, they're still looking for him.

It seems well how can I ever be shot at Devin, Jr.

was in some Boston bank empty and safety-positive boxes. $34,000.

But if he wasn't the other man who was shooting at you, who was? Some hired gun.

Question is who hired him.

How did you took the bubbly? What for? I carried the bag myself.

Oh, well, that case. There you go. This is it.

You know, squeaking a little, aren't we, darling?

What, you could bring the car around. Excuse me, I'll go get it right now.

Let's open.

I thought I made it real clear.

I don't want your charity.

Thank you.

Things weren't given to you. They were given to your children.

I can take care of my own kids.

At the moment, you're not doing a very good job of it.

Don't do that again.

Ah!

I'm in shape and you're not.

If you insist on doing this, I'm gonna take your head off.

You know when I plan on this going from one round?

Oh!

lol

That's enough. That's

it.

Oh, you're still a punch.

You always could take a bunch.

You know, I got that part of it done anyway.

What are we gonna do with Ben?

But you should've been doing all along.

What you're doing right now?

You're fighting back.

Okay.

Don't worry about being busted.

Having a lot of good hard-working people.

is what we do.

find a temporary place for you and your family

to live until you get back on your feet.

Then we're gonna call everybody that you know. And everybody that I know.

until we get your good permanent job in a place to live. What do you think of that?

to deal.

Dad?

The police are looking for you. I just left them. Dad.

I didn't kill Linda. I didn t like her. She was robbing you blind.

But you loved her. I couldn't take that away from you.

And the police understood all this. They believe you.

Yes.

because it's true.

I was so afraid.

You've done so many foolish things.

Come on.

I'll get you some sherry.

Frank Belson called that afternoon to say that Alfred Devin's senior and his son

have been cleared in the murder investigation.

That being the case, I told Frank he owed me one more phone

call. Spencer.

Yeah, listen, that name you wanted me to run through the motor vehicles.

You were right. The man owns one. Thanks, Frank.

I was wondering how long ago would take you to get here.

a man in his dream.

Oh god, now.

credit has closed me down. Move away from the gun.

No, I may need this.

I've been waiting for the last two hours trying to muster up my nerve to use it.

You know, this place would have been paying for itself by Christmas.

We had this new year's Eve Bash all planned. All I needed was 50 grand more.

wouldn't give it to me.

Is that when you're killer?

I lost my head.

I didn't mean to kill her. I

felt bad.

What about Devon's son? You were shaking

him down, too.

Only after Linda died. Remover

as I supposed to do, I needed the money.

Would you have on him?

I told him I was going to go to the papers and tell him what Linda was really like.

Now the whole marriage was a scam to set up to get the old man's money.

The kid was afraid of scandal.

They didn't want to hurt his old man.

But he didn't pay.

Now he spoke when he heard that your friend was getting out of jail.

He figured that I was...

You know, suddenly nobody will give me money anymore.

It was a, I haven't got the guts.

Do they have shows in prison?

Let's make that alright. Hey, Tony Romano does good anytime, any place.

Hey, what about an album from prison? I mean, that could be hot, right?

Hey Tony.

Why'd she stop giving you the money? That was reason in the world.

I mean, we had the perfect scam.

And then she falls in love with the old guy.

Thank you.

Alright, well that one's good for you okay? Everybody's down. Alright, bye.

Sit down.

Yeah.

It's almost retakele for right. You've got to say graces.

Thank you, dear Lord, for this day, this food.

mostly with thank you for the gift of friendship.

But I know who wants to drop stack.
