Woman: GET OUT, TONY!

GET OUT OF HERE AND LEAVE ME ALONE!

Man: MAUREEN, LISTEN TO ME.

PLEASE, LISTEN TO ME.

LISTEN TO ME!

-NO! -YOU'VE GOT TO COME BACK TO ME.

-PLEASE, I NEED YOU. -DON'T TOUCH ME!

PLEASE, LISTEN TO ME!

I'M NOT COMING BACK TO YOU!

CAN'T YOU GET THAT THROUGH THAT STUPID SKULL OF YOURS?

MAUREEN.

[ EXHALES HEAVILY ]

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

Man: MR. CURTIS.

MR. LIU. HOW ARE YOU, SIR?

FINE, THANK YOU. WE'RE LATE. WE COULD CUT THROUGH THE BACK

-TO THE COURTROOM. -ALL RIGHT, SIR.

Woman: MOBILE OPERATOR.

YES, OPERATOR.

THIS IS 555-2199.

YES, I WANT 923-6291.

Woman: ONE MOMENT PLEASE.

ALL RIGHT.

[ BEEPS ]

[ STEADY TONE ]

[ BEEPING ]

[ MACHINE CLACKING ]

[ TYPING ]

"NAME -- ALLEN CURTIS." THAT'S THE ONE.

Man: WILL YOU PLEASE CONTINUE, MR. MANICOTE?

YES, YOUR HONOR.

I CALL MR. WILLIAM CURTIS TO THE STAND.

RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND. REPEAT AFTER ME.

DO YOU SOLEMNLY SWEAR TO TELL

THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH,

SO HELP YOU GOD?

Curtis: I DO.

Manicote: STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS, PLEASE.

Curtis: WILLIAM ALLEN CURTIS.

2400 MOALA PLAZA, HONOLULU.

MR. CURTIS, YOU OCCUPY THE APARTMENT

IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THAT OF THE DECEASED,

MAUREEN TILLES, IS THAT CORRECT?

YES.

AND ON THE DAY MRS. TILLES WAS MURDERED,

MAY 21st, WERE YOU AT HOME?

YES, FROM 3:00 ON. I HAD PLAYED GOLF EARLIER IN THE DAY.

SO YOU WERE AT HOME AT 5:00 P.M.,

THE DAY WE HAVE HEARD THE CORONER TESTIFY

WAS THE APPROXIMATE TIME OF THE VICTIM'S DEATH?

YES.

WOULD YOU PLEASE TELL THIS COURT

PRECISELY WHAT YOU HEARD AND SAW AT AROUND 5:00 P.M.?

WELL, I HAD SETTLED DOWN WITH A DRINK

WHEN I OVERHEARD SOME LOUD VOICES

COMING FROM MRS. TILLES' APARTMENT.

IT SOUNDED LIKE A TERRIBLE ROW.

YES, GO ON.

WELL, A FEW MINUTES WENT BY, AND THE ROW GOT LOUDER.

AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT WAS QUIET.

THE FIGHT ENDED JUST LIKE THAT.

-AND THEN? -WELL, THAT LASTED

FOR A FEW MOMENTS.

AND THEN I HEARD THE DOOR

TO THE APARTMENT OF MRS. TILLES OPEN.

NATURALLY, I WAS CURIOUS, SO I LOOKED OUT MY WINDOW

AND I SAW HIM RUSHING TOWARD THE STREET.

IS THE MAN YOU SAW IN THIS COURTROOM?

YES, SIR. IT WAS HIM.

Manicote: LET THE RECORD SHOW THAT THE WITNESS HAS IDENTIFIED

THE DEFENDANT ANTHONY TILLES.

YOUR WITNESS.

MR. KEHOE, MAY I ASSUME THAT YOUR CROSS-EXAMINATION

OF THIS WITNESS WILL TAKE MORE THAN HALF AN HOUR?

I MOST CERTAINLY WILL, YOUR HONOR.

THEN I SUGGEST WE RECESS AND TAKE IT UP IN THE MORNING.

THIS COURT IS ADJOURNED TILL 10:00 TOMORROW MORNING.

WE'LL HAVE A CRACK AT HIM TOMORROW, TONY. DON'T WORRY.

EXCUSE ME.

WE'RE NOT GONNA MAKE IT, DAD.

-I'M GONNA COP A PLEA. -CUT THAT.

WE WILL MAKE IT UNLESS YOU FOLD.

FOR ONCE IN YOUR LIFE, SHOW ME SOME GUTS.

I'M GUILTY, REMEMBER?

[ FOOTSTEPS APPROACH ]

HOW'S IT STACK UP?

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A LAWYER TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION, HUGH.

I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

MR. TILLES?

MR. TILLES.

YES?

MY NAME IS CHARLES AARONS.

WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU, MR. AARONS?

OH, IT'S WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU THAT'S IMPORTANT.

SEE, I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING YOUR SON'S TRIAL AND...

WELL, IT'S APPARENT TO ME THAT HE NEEDS HELP.

EXCUSE ME, PLEASE.

I CAN GET YOUR SON OFF, TILLES.

WHAT?

I HAVE SOME INFORMATION.

WELL, WHAT IS IT?

MY HOME ADDRESS IS ON THE LOWER LEFT-HAND CORNER THERE.

WHY DON'T YOU DROP BY THIS EVENING?

WE'LL TALK IT OVER, HM?

-NOW, WAIT A MINUTE-- -SAY ABOUT 8:00, HMM?

DUKE, WHAT HAVE WE GOT?

A GRAPHOLOGY REPORT ON THE HARRISON EXTORTION CASE.

-WHAT DOES IT TELL US? -JUST WHAT WE SUSPECTED.

GOOD.

[ PHONE RINGS ]

-McGARRETT. -Danno: STEVE.

YEAH, DANNO.

HOW'S IT GOING OVER THERE?

I THINK MANICOTE'S GOT THIS ONE IN HIS HIP POCKET, STEVE.

HE WAS REALLY GOOD THIS MORNING.

HE TOOK THE GAS RIGHT OUT OF KEHOE'S ARGUMENT

THAT MAUREEN WAS KILLED BY A BURGLAR.

I WISH I WAS THERE.

UH, HOW LONG DO YOU THINK YOU'LL BE TIED UP?

OH, I CAN'T SAY EXACTLY.

KEHOE'S RESERVED THE RIGHT TO RECALL ME.

I THINK HE'S JUST BLOWING SMOKE.

THE WAY THINGS STAND, THE JURY SHOULD BE GOING HOME REAL SOON.

-OKAY, KEEP ME POSTED, DANNO. -YEAH.

BYE.

Aarons: COME IN.

CAN I GET YOU SOMETHING?

DRINK?

NO, NO.

IT'S IN THAT ENVELOPE THERE.

Tilles: TELEPHONE NUMBERS?

Aarons: THAT'S RIGHT.

THEY'RE VERY SPECIAL.

THEY BELONG TO THE ENEMY'S STAR WITNESS.

CURTIS?

WELL, I DON'T SEE WHAT THESE NUMBERS HAVE GOT --

YOU'VE GOT PRIVATE DETECTIVES WORKING ON THIS THING, RIGHT?

JUST GET ONE OF THEM TO CHECK OUT THOSE NUMBERS,

AND YOU'LL FIND ALL YOU NEED TO DO A JOB ON THE MAN.

MY DETECTIVES HAVE ALREADY CHECKED CURTIS OUT.

HE'S UNTOUCHABLE.

[ SCOFFS ]

NO ONE'S UNTOUCHABLE.

NOT IF HIS NAME'S IN A COMPUTER SOMEWHERE.

THAT'S WHY YOU NEED ME, TILLES.

I CAN GET YOUR SON OFF. AND I'M THE ONLY ONE.

YOUR LAWYER, WHAT'S HIS NAME?

-KEHOE? -YEAH.

HE DOESN'T HAVE A CHANCE. AND I THINK YOU KNOW IT.

OH, I THINK HE'S DONE A GOOD JOB SO FAR.

YOU KNOW HOW THE D.A.'S GOT IT KNOCKED, TILLES. FACE IT.

I MEAN, BESIDES CURTIS' TESTIMONY,

THERE'S THE PRIOR ASSAULT ON MAUREEN BY YOUR SON.

AND THERE'S THE DEPOSITION SHE GAVE

A WEEK BEFORE SHE WAS KILLED

SWEARING THAT TONY THREATENED TO KILL HER

UNLESS SHE DROPPED DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS.

AND FURTHERMORE --

ALL RIGHT. HE WOULDN'T GIVE HER UP.

I TALKED AND I TALKED AND I TALKED,

BUT NO, HE WOULDN'T LISTEN.

IF HE COULDN'T HAVE HER, THEN NO ONE.

YOU SEE? YOU DO NEED ME.

WHAT'S YOUR PRICE?

TILLES,

I DIDN'T THINK YOU'D BE SO CRASS.

BUT THEN...

-HALF A MILLION. -HALF A -- YOU MUST BE JOKING --

100,000 NOW,

AND THE BALANCE PAYABLE

ONLY IF YOUR SON GETS OFF.

WHAT ABOUT PAYMENT?

I CAN'T RISK HAVING THIS GET BACK TO ME.

NO, NO. NO RISK.

I'LL ARRANGE IT SO THAT NOTHING IS TRACEABLE TO YOU.

GO AHEAD, TAKE THOSE NUMBERS.

CHECK 'EM OUT.

IF THEY WORK, WE'LL TALK. HOW'S THAT?

-ALL RIGHT. -GOOD.

BYE.

NOW, MR. CURTIS,

HOW WOULD YOU CHARACTERIZE YOUR, UM, RELATIONSHIP

WITH THE DECEASED, MAUREEN TILLES?

RELATIONSHIP?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU MEAN.

Kehoe: ACQUAINTANCES?

NO, I HARDLY KNEW HER.

WE WERE CASUAL NEIGHBORS.

CASUAL NEIGHBORS.

WERE YOU EVER INSIDE MRS. TILLES' APARTMENT?

NEVER.

-ARE YOU SURE OF THAT? -I'M POSITIVE.

Kehoe: YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY SURE OF THAT?

Curtis: YES, SIR.

Kehoe: MR. CURTIS, UH,

DID YOU MAKE A LONG-DISTANCE TELEPHONE CALL

TO SAN FRANCISCO TO A MR. DAVID SCOTT

ON MAY 20th OF THIS YEAR,

THE DAY BEFORE MAUREEN TILLES WAS KILLED?

YES, I DID MAKE A CALL TO DAVID ABOUT THAT TIME,

BUT I CAN'T BE CERTAIN OF THE DAY.

AND FROM WHERE DID YOU MAKE THAT TELEPHONE CALL, MR. CURTIS?

FROM MY APARTMENT.

ARE YOU ABSOLUTELY SURE OF THAT, MR. CURTIS?

-WHY, YES. -Kehoe: YOUR HONOR,

I NOW INTRODUCE INTO EVIDENCE TELEPHONE-COMPANY RECORDS

SHOWING THAT THE CALL IN QUESTION WAS,

IN FACT, MADE NOT FROM MR. CURTIS' TELEPHONE

AS HE SUGGESTS, BUT FROM THE APARTMENT PHONE

OF THE DECEASED, MAUREEN TILLES.

-OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR. -[ CROWD MURMURING ]

I HEAR YOUR STAR WITNESS BLEW HIS COOL, JOHN.

IS IT A KNOCKOUT BLOW?

NO. AT LEAST, I DON'T THINK SO.

I'VE GOT TILLES NAILED A COUPLE OF OTHER WAYS.

BUT THE TELEPHONE RECORDS DID THEIR DAMAGE, THAT'S FOR SURE.

COULD THERE BE A MISTAKE OR SOME KIND OF TAMPERING?

WE'RE CHECKING WITH THE PHONE PEOPLE NOW.

I FIGURED KEHOE WOULD TRY TO INFER SOME KIND OF RELATIONSHIP

BETWEEN CURTIS AND MAUREEN.

I WARNED HIM BEFORE THE TRIAL,

BUT HE ASSURED ME HE HARDLY KNEW HER.

I'D BE GLAD TO DRIVE OVER THERE WITH YOU,

IF YOU THINK IT WOULD DO ANY GOOD.

Manicote: IT'S WORTH A SHOT.

YOU CAN'T DO ANY WORSE THAN I HAVE.

[ BEEPING ]

[ BEEP ]

[ BEEP ]

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

-YEAH? -Tilles: MR. AARONS?

MM-HMM, YEAH?

I DIDN'T SEE YOU IN COURT THIS AFTERNOON.

I JUST WANTED TO CALL TO TELL YOU WE SCORED BIG TODAY.

OH, THEN YOU'LL MEET MY TERMS?

-UH, YES, BUT -- -GOOD.

ALL THAT'S NECESSARY FOR PAYMENT IS

FOR YOU TO TRANSFER YOUR PERSONAL BANK ACCOUNT

FROM TIDEWATER FEDERAL TO OAHU NATIONAL.

I'LL TAKE CARE OF THE REST.

OKAY, BUT HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT MY BANK ACCOUNT WAS --

LOOK, TILLES, I'VE ONLY GOT TWO DAYS BEFORE COURT RECONVENES,

AND I'VE GOT A LOT TO DO.

NOW, WILL YOU CHANGE THAT ACCOUNT?

OF COURSE, BUT, UH --

[ DIAL TONE ]

[ BEEP ]

Aarons: PALMER, YEAH.

HE'LL DO NICELY.

[ DOG BARKING ]

[ GASPS ]

Curtis: GENTLEMEN, I'M TELLING BOTH OF YOU,

THERE HAS TO BE SOME KIND OF MISTAKE HERE.

WE THOUGHT OF THAT TOO, MR. CURTIS.

ONE OF MY MEN CHECKED WITH THE HEAD

OF THE TELEPHONE COMPANY'S COMPUTER DIVISION.

HE SAID THAT IN ALL HIS YEARS OF WORKING

WITH THE TELEPHONE COMPANY'S COMPUTERS,

HE HAS NEVER SEEN AN ERROR LIKE THAT MADE.

NOW, WE CAN ONLY WORK WITH THE EVIDENCE WE HAVE.

I UNDERSTAND HOW YOU FEEL.

THERE'S BEEN A MURDER COMMITTED

AND THAT YOU MIGHT BE FRIGHTENED.

BUT I NEED THE TRUTH, MY FRIEND.

NOW, WAS THERE A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND MRS. TILLES?

RELATIONSHIP? THERE WAS NO RELATIONSHIP.

AND I'M TIRED OF BEING ACCUSED.

WE'RE NOT ACCUSING YOU OF ANYTHING.

IF YOU'LL JUST TELL US

WHY YOU MADE THAT CALL FROM HER APARTMENT.

WHATEVER THE REASON,

I MIGHT BE ABLE TO DEAL WITH IT IN COURT.

AS IT STANDS NOW, YOUR TESTIMONY HAS DONE US MORE HARM THAN GOOD.

BUT I HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE.

I'VE TOLD YOU THE TRUTH.

-NOW MAY I GO? -ALL RIGHT.

BUT STAY IN TOWN.

WE MAY WANNA TALK WITH YOU AGAIN.

[ MACHINES WHIRRING ]

[ HUMMING ]

HEY, CHARLIE.

-AT IT AGAIN, EH, CHARLIE? -[ CHUCKLES ]

OH. DID YOU HEAR? WE LANDED THE RAPID TRANSIT ACCOUNT.

WE? WHO'S "WE"?

COME ON, CHARLIE.

OH, YOU MUST MEAN THE COMPANY,

OUR GREAT SUGAR DADDY IN THE SKY, HUH?

LOOK, THIS ONE'S GONNA BE A REAL CHALLENGE.

WE'VE GOT NEW DESIGN PROBLEMS

AND WE'RE IN ON IT FROM THE GROUND FLOOR.

SO YOU KNOW THE BRASS IS GONNA WANT YOU TO HANDLE IT.

YOU'RE THE BEST.

I'M NOT INTERESTED.

HUH? YOUR PERFORMANCE REVIEW'S ON BLANCHARD'S DESK RIGHT NOW.

THERE'S NO WAY THAT THEY'RE NOT GONNA APPROVE IT.

YEAH, WELL, YOU CAN TELL BLANCHARD TO SHOVE THAT REVIEW,

AND AFTER THAT, IF HE WANTS SOME READING MATERIAL,

YOU CAN GIVE HIM THIS.

RESIGNATION?

I'M THROUGH WORKING MY BUTT OFF

WHEN ALL I GET IS MY EGO STROKED.

HAPPY RAPID TRANSIT.

MASON'S DEPARTMENT STORE.

Woman: HERE YOU GO.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

-YES, SIR, MAY I HELP YOU? -YES, PLEASE.

I ORDERED A BRACELET YESTERDAY.

THE NAME'S SLATER. BRIAN SLATER.

OKAY.

IS THIS THE ONE?

MM-HM. THIS IS IT.

DO YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT WITH US, SIR?

NO, NO.

I, UH-- I DON'T BELIEVE IN CREDIT CARDS.

I'LL PAY CASH.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

YES, SIR?

YES, UH, I'D LIKE TO HAVE SOMETHING ENGRAVED.

DOC SAYS IT HAPPENED ABOUT AN HOUR AGO.

THIS WAY.

SHE LIVED ALONE. HER MANAGER SAYS SHE WAS A WIDOW.

APPARENTLY QUITE WEALTHY.

BY THE LOOK OF IT, I'D SAY SHE WAS SURPRISED BY A BURGLAR.

[ McGARRETT SIGHS ]

BEDROOM WAS RANSACKED.

THE JEWELRY BOX IS EMPTY.

KEY WAS STILL IN HER HAND.

WHAT CAN YOU TELL US, DOC?

FOR NOW, POSSIBLE STRANGULATION.

MARKS ON HER THROAT INDICATING ROPE OR CORD OF SOME KIND.

TELL YOU MORE LATER.

WELL, NOW YOU SEE WHY H.P.D. CALLED US OUT.

YOU MEAN MAUREEN TILLES?

-YEAH. -Danno: ALL ADDS UP.

RICH WOMAN, LIVES ALONE. SAME M.O.

AND MAUREEN TILLES LIVED RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.

YEAH, COULD BE.

-ANY WITNESSES? -Chin Ho: NOTHING MUCH SO FAR.

BUT H.P.D.'S GOT MEN COVERING THE APARTMENTS AND NEIGHBORHOOD.

WE FOUND THESE UNDER THE BODY.

GET THEM OVER TO CHE AT THE LAB.

CHIN, CHE FONG LIFTED A PRINT OFF THOSE SUNGLASSES.

GET IT FROM HIM, TAKE IT OVER TO H.P.D. COMPUTER BANK,

SEE IF THEY CAN GET A MAKE ON IT.

[ WHIRRING ]

YEAH?

I'VE GOT A MATCH UP ON THAT PRINT.

A PALMER, TIMOTHY J.

ONE MURDER-TWO CHARGE DROPPED FOR LACK OF EVIDENCE.

CURRENTLY ON PAROLE.

HIS SPECIALTY SEEMS TO BE APARTMENT HOUSES.

FAVORITE VICTIMS: WEALTHY WOMEN WHO LIVE ALONE.

GOT AN ADDRESS ON HIM?

YEAH. CURRENT FROM HIS PAROLE OFFICER.

HE RENTS A BUNGALOW ON BLACKPOINT ROAD.

LET'S GO.

-HI. -FRANK, YOU'RE JUST IN TIME.

-FOR WHAT? DANNO, PICK UP CHIN.

COME ON, FRANK. I'LL EXPLAIN TO YOU ON THE WAY.

FIVE-O, OPEN UP.

OPEN UP.

CLEAN.

NOTHING OUT BACK, STEVE.

LET'S HAVE A LOOK AROUND HERE.

STEVE.

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.

M.T.

MAUREEN TILLES.

CHIN, HOW'S THE STAKEOUT COMING?

WELL, NOTHING MUCH, STEVE.

IT LOOKS LIKE PALMER DOESN'T HANG AROUND THE HOUSE VERY MUCH.

DUKE AND FRANK ARE HELPING WITH AN H.P.D. BACKUP UNIT.

THEY'RE OUT CHECKING THE NEIGHBORHOOD NOW.

WE'VE GOT AN APB OUT ON HIM AND HIS CAR.

GOOD.

[ DOOR OPENS, SHUTS ]

I TRACED THAT BRACELET BACK TO MASON'S DEPARTMENT STORE.

THE COMPUTER RECORDS SHOW

THAT MAUREEN PURCHASED ONE IDENTICAL TO IT

THE DAY BEFORE SHE WAS MURDERED.

I GUESS WE GOT A NEW SUSPECT.

YEAH.

-JENNY? -Jenny: YES, STEVE?

GET ME MANICOTE.

THIS IS GONNA MAKE JOHN'S DAY.

McGarrett: SO WE KNOW THAT THE MURDERS OF THE TWO WOMEN,

MAUREEN TILLES AND HARRIET BRIGHAM,

ARE LINKED, YOUR HONOR.

JUST HOW, WE'RE NOT CERTAIN AS YET.

IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE YOU HAVE THE WRONG MAN IN JAIL.

JUST A MINUTE, MR. KEHOE.

THIS TIM PALMER, I UNDERSTAND

-HE'S STILL AT LARGE? -McGarrett: YES, SIR.

Manicote: THAT'S WHY I ASKED FOR THIS MEETING.

WE'D, UH -- WE'D LIKE TO REQUEST A TWO-WEEK CONTINUANCE

SO THAT FIVE-O CAN HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY

TO APPREHEND AND QUESTION THE SUSPECT.

YOUR HONOR, THAT JURY OUT THERE

HAS HEARD SOME MIGHTY DAMAGING EVIDENCE

AGAINST AN INNOCENT MAN.

NOW, HOLD ON, JOE. WHEN PALMER IS APPREHENDED AND QUESTIONED,

WE MAY FIND WE HAVE A VERY STRONG CASE AGAINST YOUR CLIENT.

NOW, STEVE SAYS WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S BEHIND THIS YET.

I THINK WE DESERVE A CHANCE TO FIND OUT.

AND I THINK THAT TONY TILLES HAS A RIGHT

TO HAVE THIS EVIDENCE HEARD RIGHT NOW.

ALL RIGHT, GENTLEMEN, ALL RIGHT.

MR. MANICOTE,

I'M GOING TO GRANT YOU A ONE-WEEK'S CONTINUANCE.

AND IF BY THE END OF THAT WEEK,

MR. McGARRETT, YOU ARE UNSUCCESSFUL,

THEN I'LL ORDER THE TRIAL CONTINUED.

THANK YOU, SIR.

YES, SIR, MAY I HELP YOU?

YES, PLEASE.

I'D LIKE TO MAKE A RESERVATION

TO LOS ANGELES TOMORROW AFTERNOON.

COACH, SAY AROUND, UH, 2:00.

WE HAVE A FLIGHT OUT AT 2:10 TOMORROW,

AND I BELIEVE IT'S STILL OPEN.

WELL, THAT'LL BE FINE.

-LET ME CHECK. -THANK YOU.

[ BEEPING ]

YES, SIR. AND THE NAME, PLEASE?

THAT'S CHARLES AARONS.

[ TYPING ]

OKAY, MR. AARONS, YOU'RE CONFIRMED ON FLIGHT 56

LEAVING HONOLULU INTERNATIONAL AT 2:10,

AND YOU CAN PICK UP YOUR TICKET AT THE AIRPORT.

-THANK YOU VERY MUCH. -ALOHA.

[ BEEPS ]

[ BEEP ]

[ BEEP ]

[ RINGING ]

-McGARRETT. -Frank: STEVE, THIS IS FRANK.

STILL PRETTY QUIET OUT HERE.

I'M BEGINNING TO WONDER ABOUT THIS DUDE.

SO AM I, FRANK, BUT HANG IN THERE A WHILE LONGER, HUH?

RIGHT.

H.P.D. REPORT'S JUST IN.

NO ONE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD REALLY KNOWS PALMER VERY WELL.

APPARENTLY, HE'S NOT TOO CHUMMY.

A COUPLE OF PEOPLE REMEMBER SEEING HIM

AROUND THE BUNGALOW FOUR, MAYBE FIVE DAYS AGO,

BUT, UH, NOTHING SINCE THEN.

THAT SQUARES WITH DUKE.

THE BARTENDER DOWN AT KAPAHULU TOLD HIM

PALMER USED TO BE QUITE A REGULAR.

HASN'T SEEN HIM FOR A WEEK.

I ALSO CHECKED WITH HIS PAROLE OFFICER.

HE SAID PALMER LOST HIS JOB FOUR MONTHS AGO.

WELL, MAYBE HE COULDN'T HACK IT.

-GOT THE ITCH. -MAYBE.

BUT THAT DOESN'T EXPLAIN WHY HE HASN'T BEEN IN THE BUNGALOW

FOR THREE DAYS.

TIPPED SOMEHOW?

COULD BE.

I JUST HOPE IT ISN'T WHAT I THINK IT IS.

ALL I KNOW IS THAT THIS TRIAL IS STARING US IN THE FACE,

SO LET'S KEEP ON IT, HUH?

-WHO'S PALMER? -PALMER?

[ CHUCKLES ]

SO YOU'VE HEARD?

Tilles: JOE KEHOE SAYS THAT THE POLICE ARE LOOKING FOR HIM

FOR THE MURDER OF A WOMAN NAMED BRIGHAM,

AND THAT A BRACELET OF MAUREEN'S WAS FOUND IN HIS HOUSE.

-SO? -WHO IS PALMER?

NO ONE YOU KNEW, TILLES, AND NO ONE YOU WILL EVER KNOW,

SO STOP WORRYING.

THE POLICE WILL NEVER FIND HIM.

HE'S DEAD.

YOU KILLED HIM.

AND THE BRIGHAM WOMAN, YOU KILLED HER TOO.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE SO WORKED UP ABOUT,

BUT I'M GONNA HAVE ANOTHER DRINK.

YOU DIDN'T TELL ME YOU WERE GONNA KILL ANYONE!

HEY, YOU DIDN'T ASK. NOW, GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME!

-YOU THINK IF I'D HAVE KNOWN -- -NOW YOU KNOW!

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT? GO TO THE POLICE?

WELL, FINE.

BE MY GUEST.

WELL, COME ON, TILLES, COME ON.

FISH OR CUT BAIT.

YOU MAKE ME SICK,

YOU AND YOUR MORAL INDIGNATION.

"I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE GONNA KILL ANYONE."

WELL, WHAT ABOUT YOUR SON?

YOU KNEW HE WAS GONNA KILL SOMEONE.

THAT'S DIFFERENT. TONY NEVER DELIBERATELY --

TONY IS YOUR SON,

AND NOT SOME FLUNKY AT TILLES ELECTRONICS.

AND THAT'S THE ONLY DIFFERENCE, MR. TYCOON.

OH, I KNOW YOU, TILLES. YOUR KIND.

GUYS LIKE YOU BEEN USING ME FOR YEARS.

USING MY BRAIN TO MAKE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS

AND CHALKING IT UP TO THE MIRACLE OF A COMPUTER.

WELL, JACK, I AM YOUR MIRACLE.

I MAKE GUYS LIKE YOU.

THOMAS L. PITTMAN. THAT'S GOT TO BE IT.

THAT'S ONE OF PALMER'S ALIASES.

OKAY, LET'S GET ON IT. THANK YOU.

STEVE, WE MISSED HIM.

PLANE LANDED IN L.A. 7:30 P.M. OUR TIME.

GOD.

THAT GIVES HIM SEVEN HOURS ON US.

WITH A GUY LIKE PALMER, IT MIGHT AS WELL BE SEVEN WEEKS.

McGarrett: LOOK AT THAT, MR. DISTRICT ATTORNEY.

DON'T TELL ME. A SUBPOENA, RIGHT?

YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE STAR WITNESS FOR THE DEFENSE.

THE WHOLE HOUSE IS GONNA COME CRASHING DOWN TOMORROW MORNING.

AND IN MY GUT, I WAS SO SURE ABOUT TILLES.

STEVE, WORD JUST CAME IN FROM L.A.P.D.

THEY'VE BEEN WORKING WITH THE FBI.

APPARENTLY, PALMER DIDN'T MAKE ANY CONNECTING FLIGHTS

NOR DID HE RENT A CAR. OF COURSE THEY CAN'T BE 100 PERCENT SURE.

NEEDLESS TO SAY, I'VE GOT SOME WORK TO DO.

I'LL BE IN MY OFFICE. SEE YOU IN COURT.

THERE'S ONE THING WRONG WITH THIS, DANNO.

-WHAT'S THAT? -PALMER'S BEEN AROUND, RIGHT?

PLENTY OF CONTACT WITH THE POLICE,

IN AND OUT OF JAIL.

NOW, HE FIGURES WE'RE ON TO HIM.

SO WHAT DOES HE DO? HE HOPS A PLANE.

BUT HE USES ONE OF HIS OLD ALIASES TO MAKE THE RESERVATION.

YEAH, HE COULD'VE FLOWN UNDER ANY NAME.

SURE.

MAYBE HE JUST PANICKED, MADE A SLIP.

COULD BE, BUT IT'S A PRETTY DUMB THING

FOR AN EXPERIENCED GANEF, ISN'T IT?

[ DOOR OPENS ]

STEVE, WE CHECKED THE CREW ON PALMER'S FLIGHT.

NO ONE COULD MAKE A POSITIVE IDENTIFICATION.

NOT TOO SURPRISING, THOUGH.

OVER 300 PASSENGERS, THAT'S A LOT OF FACES.

THEN THE ONLY WAY WE KNOW IF PALMER WAS ON THAT FLIGHT,

IF INDEED WE DO KNOW,

IS BY WHAT THE AIRLINE COMPUTER TELLS US.

COMPUTER AGAIN.

EXCEPT THE STEWARDESS TOOK A HEAD COUNT

JUST BEFORE FLIGHT TIME.

IT CHECKED WITH THE NUMBER OF CONFIRMED RESERVATIONS.

YEAH. SHOWN BY THE COMPUTER.

SURE, IT'S A FULL FLIGHT,

BUT THE EMPTY SEATS COULD'VE BEEN FILLED BY STANDBYS.

PALMER A NO-SHOW? DOESN'T FIGURE.

MAYBE NOT, DANNO,

MAYBE NOT,

BUT HERE'S HOW I SEE IT.

IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT,

EVERY BIT OF EVIDENCE THAT WE'VE UNCOVERED SO FAR

HAS SOMEHOW BEEN RELATED TO A COMPUTER.

THE AIRLINE'S RESERVATION,

BRACELET TRACED BACK TO MASON'S DEPARTMENT STORE

AND CURTIS, THE EYEWITNESS DISCREDITED ON THE STAND

BY THE COMPUTER RECORDS OF THE TELEPHONE COMPANY.

YOU KNOW, CURTIS IS STILL INSISTING

HE WAS NEVER IN MAUREEN'S APARTMENT.

WELL, MAYBE HE WASN'T, DANNO.

ARE YOU SAYING THAT MAYBE SOMEBODY TAMPERED

WITH THE TELEPHONE COMPANY'S COMPUTER

AND ALL THOSE OTHER COMPUTERS AS WELL?

RIGHT NOW, I'M NOT SURE OF ANYTHING.

WHAT I AM SAYING IS THAT THERE IS SOMETHING VERY STRANGE

-ABOUT THIS WHOLE THING. -Chin Ho: WAIT A MINUTE.

WHAT ABOUT THAT FINGERPRINT?

PALMER'S PRINT ON THE SUNGLASSES WE FOUND IN THE APARTMENT?

NOW, THAT WASN'T MADE BY COMPUTER.

RIGHT.

BUT ONCE WE GOT THE PRINT, HOW DID WE GET THE I.D.?

-YOU MEAN THE H.P.D. COMPUTER? -YEAH.

BUT HOW WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE FOR SOMEBODY TO GAIN ACCESS

TO ALL THOSE COMPUTERS, LET ALONE TAP THEM?

I DON'T KNOW, BUT THAT'S WHAT I'M GONNA FIND OUT.

LET'S GO.

OKAY, LARRY,

IS IT POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE OUTSIDE THE DEPARTMENT

COULD TAP INTO THIS COMPUTER?

NO WAY.

UNLESS HE KNEW HOW TO PROGRAM THROUGH OUR SECURITY CODES.

THAT WOULD TAKE A REAL EXPERT,

SOMEONE WITH SPECIALIZED KNOWLEDGE.

WELL, LET'S SAY FOR THE MOMENT, THAT SUCH AN INDIVIDUAL EXISTS.

WELL, THEN ALL HE'D NEED IS A TERMINAL,

A TELEPHONE, AN ACOUSTIC COUPLER.

THEN HE'D SIMPLY DIAL UP THE COMPUTER CENTER.

[ TYPING ]

THE CALL WOULD COME IN HERE,

PUNCH UP THE PROPER SEQUENCE TO GET BY SECURITY, AND HE'S IN.

BUT I WANNA EMPHASIZE, WITH THE SECURITY SYSTEM WE HAVE HERE,

WHAT YOU'RE SUGGESTING IS --

WELL, I WON'T SAY IMPOSSIBLE, BUT DAMN UNLIKELY.

BUT EVEN THIS COMPUTER ISN'T FAIL-SAFE?

NO, NOT GIVEN THE PRESENT STATE OF THE ART.

OKAY, BACK TO THE EXPERT.

WHO IS THE MOST LIKELY CANDIDATE?

THE ONLY POSSIBILITY WOULD BE SOMEONE WHO HAD A HAND

IN THE DESIGN OF THE COMPUTER SOFTWARE.

THE BASIC SYSTEM, SET OF PROGRAMS,

THAT ALLOWS THE BEAST TO DO ITS WORK.

THIS PARTICULAR COMPUTER

WAS MANUFACTURED AND DESIGNED BY WORLD BUSINESS MACHINES.

WORLD BUSINESS MACHINES. THEY'RE ONE OF THE LARGEST, RIGHT?

RIGHT. THEY DESIGN SYSTEMS FOR MANY MAJOR COMPANIES

AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES.

OKAY. THANK YOU, LARRY. APPRECIATE IT.

ANYTIME.

YES, WE DESIGNED THE SYSTEMS FOR ALL THOSE COMPANIES,

BOTH SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE.

HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE INVOLVED

IN THE DESIGN PHASE OF THOSE CONTRACTS?

QUITE A FEW. I'D HAVE TO CHECK.

CAN YOU GET A LIST OF THOSE PEOPLE TO US

AS SOON AS POSSIBLE? IT'S URGENT.

CERTAINLY.

IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE, ONE OF OUR OWN PEOPLE

MANIPULATING RECORDS.

THIS IS THE KIND OF HORROR STORY I'M ALWAYS AFRAID OF.

AND THIS TIME THE HORROR STORY MAY INCLUDE MURDER.

LET'S GO.

YOU'LL GET THAT LIST WITHIN THE HOUR.

IF THAT LIST HE WAS TALKING ABOUT IS TOO LONG,

WE'RE GONNA HAVE TROUBLE MAKING THAT TRIAL DEADLINE.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO AT IT FROM THE OTHER END.

-HUGH TILLES? -YEAH.

WELL, HE'S THE MAN. HE FITS.

HE'S THE HIGH ROLLER WITH THE BIG STAKE

AND THE ABILITY TO PAY.

I'VE HEARD OF TAMPERING IN COURT CASES BEFORE,

BUT THIS TAKES THE TROPHY.

FOR OPENERS, CHECK OUT TILLES' BANK ACCOUNTS,

BUSINESS AND PERSONAL.

SEE IF HE'S MADE ANY SIZABLE WITHDRAWALS RECENTLY.

-STEVE? -McGarrett: YEAH, DANNO?

I CHECKED TILLES' ACCOUNTS.

HE HASN'T MADE ANY SIZABLE WITHDRAWALS

SINCE WAY BEFORE THE TRIAL STARTED.

BUT THE DAY AFTER WILLIAM CURTIS TESTIFIED,

HE TRANSFERRED HIS PERSONAL ACCOUNT

FROM TIDEWATER FEDERAL TO OAHU NATIONAL.

AND TIDEWATER FEDERAL'S COMPUTER SYSTEM?

NOT DESIGNED BY WORLD BUSINESS MACHINES.

-AND OAHU NATIONAL WAS? -Danno: RIGHT.

OH, BOY. VERY NEAT.

AND DIFFICULT TO TRACE.

YEAH.

BUT WITHOUT THOSE RECORDS, ALL WE'VE REALLY GOT IS AIR.

THEORIES, SUPPOSITIONS

AND A MYTHICAL COMPUTER FREAK WE THINK

MIGHT INVOLVED IN A CONSPIRACY WITH HUGH TILLES.

JOHN,

I THINK WE'RE GONNA NEED A SEARCH WARRANT.

WELL, THERE'S PRECEDENT FOR THAT SORT OF THING.

WARRANTS HAVE BEEN ISSUED TO GO INTO COMPUTERS BEFORE, BUT --

YEAH, I KNOW.

I DON'T LIKE IT EITHER,

BUT THE BOTTOM LINE IS

ARE WE READY TO INVADE A MAN'S PRIVACY

BASED ON THE INFORMATION WE'VE GOT?

Manicote: STEVE, I THINK WE HAVE TO.

NOT ONLY ARE WE FACED WITH THE POSSIBILITY

THAT A MURDERER IS GOING TO BE SET FREE,

BUT THERE'S ANOTHER KILLER OUT THERE.

AND IF OUR COMPUTER ANALYST

SLIDES BY THIS ONE,

IT COULD JUICE HIM UP TO SOMETHING EVEN WORSE.

GET ME THAT WARRANT.

WHAT IF WE'RE WRONG?

THEN WE TAKE THE HEAT.

-MR. BOWMAN? -MR. HO, WHAT MAY I DO FOR YOU?

WELL, THIS IS A WARRANT EMPOWERING HAWAII FIVE-O

TO EXAMINE ALL COMPUTER RECORDS ASSOCIATED

WITH THE ACCOUNT OF HUGH M. TILLES.

IT'S A NEW ACCOUNT.

YES, I KNOW, A VERY LARGE ONE.

I OPENED IT MYSELF.

COMPUTER RECORDS?

THAT'S VERY UNUSUAL.

JUDGE HARDING, THE ISSUING JUDGE,

SAYS IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTION TO CALL HIM.

NO, NO, NO, NOT AT ALL. COME WITH ME.

I'LL SEE THAT YOU GET THEM RIGHT AWAY.

ONLY ONE TRANSACTION RECORDED.

YEAH, BUT I THINK IT'S THE ONE.

NOW, THIS ACCOUNT NUMBER SHOWN HERE, 33564,

COULD YOU FIND OUT WHO IT BELONGS TO?

-SURE, JUST A SECOND. -WELL, THANK YOU.

WILLIAMS.

RIGHT.

STEVE. THANKS, CHIN.

PAY DIRT. THE DAY AFTER TILLES OPENED HIS ACCOUNT,

$100,000 WAS TRANSFERRED

TO THE PERSONAL ACCOUNT OF A CHARLES AARONS.

CHARLES AARONS.

LET'S SEE IF WE'VE GOT OURSELVES A COMPUTER ANALYST.

AH-HA.

ARE YOU READY TO PROCEED, MR. MANICOTE?

YES, I AM, YOUR HONOR.

I CALL CHARLES AARONS TO THE STAND.

[ GROANS ]

HE'S GONNA TELL IT ALL, MR. TILLES.

OKAY, DANNO.

YOU KNOW,

ALL WE CAN EXPECT FROM A COMPUTER IS INFORMATION.

IT'S JUST A PIECE OF HARDWARE.

NO VALUES, NO SENSE OF MORALITY.

BUT OUR SOCIETY IS CONCERNED WITH PEOPLE.

PEOPLE. AND WE EXPECT MUCH MORE FROM THEM.

MUCH MORE.
