Original subtitles

- Get against the truck!

- I if you do

you'll be deader than that beef that's in the truck.

- You couldn't hit the side of a barn with that...

- Ready.

Come on.

(gunfire popping)

- I already bought a load of beef from them

and quite frankly the price was right.

- So right that it might have been stolen?

- So right that with these people you don't ask questions.

- You don't want to cooperate with us do you?

- Police officers.

Get 'em up there where I can see 'em.

Come on let's go, get 'em up.

(gunfire popping)

- Hey, no, it's okay, we're not armed.

Hey come on.

(suspenseful music)

- Good evening Mr. Markham.

You remember me don't you?

- Thorne isn't it?

- Yes sir.

- How did you get in here?

- The back door was unlocked.

- No it wasn't.

- There's no need for us to argue Mr. M.

It's just a visit.

- If you've come to collect you're wasting your time.

I told your boss yesterday.

I can't even meet the interest payment this month.

- Business is lousy huh?

- Terrible, take a look at yourself.

- No need to do that, I'm the bearer of good news.

- I'm not borrowing anymore money.

Not from you people.

- Who from then?

Let me ask you a question.

What's your most expensive item after help?

- Beef.

- Figure 2,000, 3,000 pounds of beef per month, right?

- That's close enough, why?

- I told you I had good news.

We can arrange for you to buy all the beef you want

at one dollar a pound.

- Come on man that's impossible.

- Nothing's impossible.

Think about it Mr. Markham.

- Where is this beef coming from?

- From my people, where else?

We have many interests Mr. M, you know that.

- Well, it's a proposition worth considering.

I've got to admit that.

- Good, you figure out how much beef you can use

and you give me a call.

Figure three or four days for delivery.

Right Mr. M?

Nice talkin' to you Mr. M.

- Ellen, is the Commissioner still awake?

This is Al Markham, thank you.

- Stuart, I'm sorry to bother you at home at this hour

but this is important.

I've just been offered some stolen beef.

Yes, I'm sure.

Yes.

Certainly, certainly it can wait

until you get to your office.

I'll see you then.

- Hey look, Al Markham's car is still in the parking lot.

Come on, we better check it out.

(suspenseful music)

- Come on Pepper, you've been in there before.

- Too many times, but Al Markham, one of the nicest people

anybody could ever meet...

- Yes he was.

- Decent, honest it just...

- Well as far as we know he was honest, yeah.

Pepper, that was an execution in there.

That was no hit and run, that was no accident.

- He's closed down twice in the past three years.

Everybody knows he,

you know had heavy financial problems,

but don't you think he might have tried to save it

with a big loan?

- He could have got mixed up with a loan shark, sure.

But I tell you something,

Al had a lot of assets.

I think they would have made a strong effort to collect

before they'd have killed him.

I mean they just don't work that way.

No, there's more to it than that.

- Yeah, it's gotta be the stolen beef.

- Well, you can interview the Commissioner.

And I want a verbatim report

of the content of Markham's telephone call.

- Okay.

- Couple of bank loans he was making payments on.

Lot of red ink.

I tell you if he was in debt to anyone else

he sure didn't write it down anyplace.

What about you Pete,

did you find anything in last year's stuff?

- Well I don't need to be an accountant

to figure this one out.

What comes in here, goes out here.

- Well, this is interesting, phone's not working.

- Hi fellas.

- Hi.

- Ray, how are you.

- Okay I guess.

- I'm sorry about Al.

- He was a good man, the best.

Took me right out of college and gave me my first break.

- How's his wife doing?

- She's in pretty bad shape, can't quite believe it,

but she was not involved in the business Bill.

- I've already told Pepper

that if Al had any mob connections I didn't know about them.

- I've been going through those books Ray,

business wasn't good.

- Don't I know.

Had to lay people off,

close a few of the restaurants for lunch,

things like that.

But we'd had bad times before, always come through.

- Whose gonna be in charge, you?

- Mrs. Markham asked me to take over,

for the time being at least.

I'll do the best I can.

Look if there's nothing else I've got quite a lot to do.

Funeral arrangements, telephoning relatives.

- Sure go ahead, listen, if we got any questions

we'll get in touch, we'll phone you.

- I want you to.

I,

I'll be in touch.

- Thanks Ray.

Nothing?

- Not yet,

- [Jim] Look at this.

- What do you got Jim?

- Wire got hooked over the cradle, wouldn't release it.

- Bug?

- Yeah, this wouldn't be the work of the feds,

they'd use a lease line.

No, this looks more like something a private investigator

would do.

- Yeah, but who would have hired him?

- Well whoever was monitoring this thing,

sure knew about the phone call to the Commissioner.

- Slide it over.

- Hey.

- I see you all met with huge success.

- Hi Pepper, how about a beer?

- Yeah, thanks.

- I tell you,

whoever backed Markham's loan's

playing it very close to the chest.

We talked to Little Jimmy,

now Jimmy knows every loan shark in this town,

not a work about Markham.

- Well, maybe that's not the answer.

- No, it's the answer.

We just haven't come up with the right combination.

- Here, I'll take it, thank you.

- What about beef?

Isn't that what part of this is all about?

- I checked through RNI.

Locally there hasn't been a theft or hijacking

in the last three months.

- And Bill checked with CII and he came up with something

pretty interesting.

- Strangely enough

there's been an upsurge in cattle rustling.

Especially in central California.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Anybody here know anything about cattle rustling?

- You're not gonna believe this.

- You're kiddin'.

- Back in Montana?

- No Wyoming.

You rustled cattle, right?

- I can at least tell you how it was when I was a kid.

- Yeah but it's gotta be a little bit different now Pep.

- Just a little.

- Well it is, Wyoming became a state.

- Thanks a lot.

- No, I understand today that they rustle, slaughter,

dress and package all in 24 hours.

- I do know somebody.

Yeah, an old hand in the cattle business.

Yeah, he'd know.

I could drive up tonight.

- Why don't you.

- Hey Pepper honey...

- Uncle Ben!

- How are you baby, how are ya?

- Uncle Ben.

Great just great.

It's so good to see you.

It's so good, oh.

- Look at there, isn't she beautiful.

They tell you that down that wicked city?

- Only the wicked ones like you.

- I'll bet...

- How's Aunt Helen?

I sensed on the phone she wasn't too good.

- No, she's not too bad, not too bad.

She's just dying to see you.

She's been on pins and needles since you phoned.

Oh and watch the tiles now,

we're trying to fix this old barn up.

We're not gettin' any help from the landlord you know

so really watch yourself now, okay.

And I'll come back and get your bags later

now watch your step.

- [Pepper] Okay, you look great.

- [Ben] Yeah I feel good.

- Oh Uncle Ben, it's charming.

- Well you can thank your Aunt Helen for that.

- Oh it's just...

- Pepper!

- Aunt Helen.

- Dear Pepper.

It was so sweet of you to come.

- You look wonderful, beautiful.

- Now you two have a nice visit, I'll go get your bag.

- Now you stop that nonsense about me lookin' so wonderful.

I look awful and you know it,

but I feel better than I look thank goodness

and that's somethin'.

- You know,

I don't believe what I smell.

- You better believe.

- Where is it?

- In the kitchen cooling on the cupboard.

- Oh Helen.

- The bluest and the juiciest.

I remember a little girl once in Wyoming

who used to eat blueberry pies

til' she got the worst tummy ache imaginable.

- They were worth it.

Oh Helen.

(suspenseful music)

(chain rattling)

(suspenseful music)

- Wait a minute wait a minute Ray.

A toast to our new and profitable association.

- I'll drink to that.

- I'll drink to anything.

- Well Ray since you're here

I assume you're interested in my proposition.

- That correct Mr. Galloway.

- Willie.

Sit down.

- Willie.

- Well, how many thousand pounds to start?

- Two.

- That's not even a dozen head.

I'd suggest three.

- Okay, 3,000 pounds

dressed.

Where do I sign?

- Ah your handshake's good enough for me.

I'll be in touch.

- It's a pleasure doing business with you Mister, uh

Willie.

Goodnight.

- Goodnight.

Monk, take Mr. Roberts back to his restaurant huh.

(phone ringing)

- Yeah.

Oh yeah Galloway.

Yeah 17, 18 head.

Yeah you got it.

(suspenseful music)

Say you know Pepper,

you rode that horse real good for a police sergeant.

- Well look who taught me.

- Well that's true enough.

You were such funny little thing,

all skin and bones and eyes, and stubborn.

- Determination Uncle Ben.

- Well I guess that's the word for it out of the book.

You'd fall off five or six times climb right back on again,

tears streaming down your eyes, and cussin'.

Never heard a little girl with words like that.

Wonder where you learned em'.

- Well I could tell you that too if you really want to know.

- Well I'm sorry I asked.

- Yeah.

- But you know, it was real fun today

just ridin' for the hell of it.

Haven't done that in a long time.

You know ridin' alone isn't much fun.

- How sick is Aunt Helen?

She looks so pale.

At dinner she only said that she had this kidney thing.

- Well now you know

she'd raise the roof if she knew I was talkin' about it,

but I gotta tell somebody Pepper.

You know when she lost that kidney last year?

Well the one she's got left ain't workin' so good

and I gotta take her down the hospital once a week.

They put her on that machine.

- Dialysis?

- Yeah, yeah that's it.

- That's expensive.

- Yeah you know we don't have any insurance to speak of

so I sold that spread we had in Nevada and we moved here

and there's a little work here and there

for an old cowhand.

So between that and the money from the place we get by.

Now don't you look so sad eyed.

Glad to get it off my chest, I feel better.

Now tell me about you, about your life.

I mean what's happenin'?

- Well I'm still single if that's what you're wondering.

- That's what I mean now look,

I promised you a little shootin' right?

- Yeah.

- You're gonna have a little shootin.

I mean after that boast you were doing last night

about being in the top 20 of the police department.

- It wasn't boasting, it's just a fact.

- Oh I see.

- Well, what will it be, cans or bottles?

- Eh, bottles.

- Hey what are you call that?

You didn't learn that from me,

you couldn't hit side of a barn with that...

- Come, come, ready.

Come on.

(gunfire popping)

- Maybe I ought to try that, huh?

- No, no here let me show you.

- What you... - Oh come on.

Hey.

- That was great.

Uncle Ben, with Helen feeling like she was,

I didn't want to sit around talking about rustling

at dinner, but I need your help,

mainly your expertise.

- Sure Pepper but why?

- Well I'm working on a case right now

and our only lead is stolen beef.

Now the crime reports indicate

that it's probably cattle rustling.

How would a person go about moving stolen cattle

these days and not get caught?

- Well now it seems to me

a fella would find a real big spread you know,

someplace where they run 20, 25,000 head.

That way a couple dozen wouldn't be missed right away.

- Um humph.

Well then where would he go with them?

You can't drive a bunch of cattle

down the middle of the highway, broad daylight

or at night for that matter?

- Oh no, well I heard tell a couple of different ways.

One way is you put a couple a head in a padded van

and you drive it to a secret slaughterhouse,

you dress the meat out.

You get rid of the hides right away cause of the brands.

Then you transfer the meat to a refrigerator truck.

That's about it.

- Sure.

Of course.

It's very simple,

the meat goes to a packing house in some city.

- I reckon'.

What do you then?

- You sell it to whoever uses a lot of beef.

Like a chain of restaurants for instance

or a lot of markets.

- Is that it?

Course that would be kind of a hard operation to track down,

with all those beef packing house you got down in your city.

- It's a starting point though.

- Well, it's gettin' on to about three.

Gotta put those horses away and get up to the house.

I gotta take Helen down the hospital this afternoon.

- Yeah, I best be gettin' too.

- You be comin' back real soon now you hear.

- First chance I get.

Really.

- Sure love to see and I want to meet this Crowley

you keep talkin' about.

- You'll like him.

(cows mooing)

- Get up there, hey!

(whistling)

- Come on get, get in that truck.

(whistling)

- [Cowboy] Come on cows.

Hey, hey, hey cattle.

Hey cattle.

Come on get up.

- Hold it Maxwell.

- The hell's a matter with you Fletcher?

How do you know he didn't see us?

- He didn't even turn his head.

- Listen, I know my job and I'm gonna do it.

- You don't have a job.

Not with me.

Not ever.

Here's your money, get lost.

(ominous music)

(engine revving)

(ominous music)

- And that's it.

The meat packer's the middle man and he sells the beef

to whoever wants to buy it, cut rate of course.

Doesn't even have to be a packer, probably isn't.

All he has to have is a packing house to store the meat in.

Interesting.

- Yeah, interesting.

- Yeah, where do I start?

The California Cattleman's Association sent me ten pages

of wholesale meat distributors.

- Why don't you start at the top of page one.

Here Joe catch.

You found it, now what I want to know is who manufactured it

and who purchased it.

- Yeah well that sounds like a lot of fun.

You know there's no name brand on this thing.

- That's why you're gonna take it down to the sound lab

and they're gonna dismantle it

and then they're gonna tell ya who made manufactured it.

- Yeah, okay.

Alright little fella, let's go look into your past life

see what we can come up with.

- Well at the risk of getting a bonus here

I'm gonna check this list

and see if anything's changed hands.

(cows mooing)

(suspenseful music)

- Uncle Ben said that rustlers

would probably hit the large ranches

where a few missing head of cattle wouldn't be noticed

but I don't know.

- What are you talkin' about?

- Well with the price of beef what it is,

I think most ranchers would know exactly how many steers

they had.

- Sure, they probably go out and count em' every few days.

Who do you report it to if you come up short of steers?

- I'll call CII

and have em' check out Bakersfield and Fresno.

- Yeah, why don't you do that.

Soon as you make a fresh pot of coffee.

- Why do I always have to make the coffee?

- Because you're here.

(suspenseful music)

(bandsaws whirring)

- Thank you Willie.

- It's a pleasure Ben.

You and your men do nice work.

So you canned Ollie Maxwell, huh?

- He thinks he's Billy the Kid.

- So you made an enemy.

Better watch your back.

- Hey now that's real smooth.

How about another little dollop.

- Sure.

How's the missus?

- Oh she's fine, she's fine.

This is gonna help.

- Yeah well, we got a real good customer now Ben.

I'll need another shipment from you in a week or ten days

and after that more, probably on a regular basis.

How's that sound to you?

- Anything you say.

Can I use your phone?

- Sure, go ahead.

You want a little head on it?

- No thanks.

You know, as long as I'm in town, invite somebody to dinner.

Yeah hello, I'd like to speak to Pepper Anderson please.

That's alright, I'll wait.

- Hey, how much longer is this gonna take?

- It's gonna take a while.

Look, 3,000 pounds is a lot of meat.

Just relax Roberts.

- Yeah I'm tryin' to

but there's still a couple cops in the place.

- Cops?

- Yeah don't worry they're friends of mine,

they come here all the time.

- Well you can say what you want

about elephant havin' the best memory

but don't compare with a bronc.

Hard Nosed he was called, and rightly so.

He knew me, that's a fact, and he hated me, whew.

First time I was up rode him right to a stop.

Nobody had ever done that before.

I think I hurt his pride.

So everywhere after that no matter what the rodeo was,

Madison Square Garden, Pendleton,

when I go walkin' by the stalls

he'd start hollerin' bloody murder.

He was cursin' at that's a fact, and threatenin',

and I was hopin' to draw him again,

you know, another bronc bustin' contest,

year after year it just never worked,

never worked.

- Folks, little more coffee or some brandy?

- Oh no thanks.

- Oh say I'm sorry Ray I got talkin' here

and didn't realize how late it was.

- Don't worry about it Ben.

Now you folks just stay and talk as long as you like.

I got some paperwork to catch up on in the back so,

if you need anything, just yell.

- Thanks Ray.

- I'll, just leave these here.

- Sorry, you know hey guys it's two o'clock.

Ben I'm a workin' man.

- Can't we just stay 'til,

lets hear the rest of the story, okay?

- Well anyhow I was pretty busted up by then you know

I figured I'd quit rodeos all together, you know,

but there was one big one still at Madison Square Garden.

You know I got second in calf ropin',

I wasn't even expectin' that.

So I was walkin' out goin' by the stalls

and I hear this big scream, that's right,

it's old Hard Nose.

Course he was pretty old by then,

must have been about 15 you know, just a work horse,

wasn't buck horse no more.

Kind of broken up just like your old Uncle Ben.

So, anyway.

I got up on him,

and I'm sittin' there on his old swayback,

he can hardly move let alone buck,

but he tried.

You know what I done?

You know what I done?

I fell right off him.

Well you never saw a happier horse in all your life.

He just laughed, he laughed.

Yeah, so I bought him,

I bought old Hard Nose and I took him back to my place

and we kind of hung around together all the time then,

'til he died.

- You know you're a sentimental old cowboy,

that's what you are.

- We got lucky.

The bug was purchased three or four years ago

by a company that was obviously a front.

Pacific West Security Systems.

I went to the address,

found out they've been out of business for year and a half.

- That's lucky.

- Recognize him?

- He looks familiar.

Refresh my memory.

- Refresh his memory Pete.

- Well you should remember him,

you busted him yourself about five years ago.

- Sure, William Galloway.

He was the middle man in that big hijacking ring, right?

- You got it.

- Only he took a walk because none of his confederates

would testify against him.

This is the bug huh?

- He was Pacific West Security.

Intelligence says it was a front

for a loan sharking operation.

- Don't tell me,

Pacific West Security is now Pacific West Meat Packers.

- You got it.

- This is harassment Crowley and you know it.

- I'm sorry you feel that way Galloway.

- I'm sure you are.

I told you before I don't know anything about how

Al Markham died.

- I'm easy to convince, all you gotta do is just

give me permission to come in have a little look around.

- Get out of here, go on get out.

You wanna look around get a search warrant.

- You know somethin' friend, I'm gonna get you one day.

I mean one day you're gonna make a little mistake

and I'm gonna be right there.

- That's threatening and intimidating Lieutenant.

They're laws against that you know?

- Yeah well when you get the state bar association

to reinstate you then I'll let you tell me about it.

In the mean time, it's Sergeant.

- Still?

After all these years on the force.

How about that.

- Can you imagine those turkeys coming in here

without a search warrant?

- Well, Willie maybe you better get out of the meat business

for a while, what do you think?

- Are you crazy?

I never saw so much money in an operation.

Don't worry, don't worry.

I think we're smart enough to stay ahead of Crowley

and the rest of those stumble bums.

- Yeah where we have trouble though is Ollie Maxwell.

- What do you mean?

- Well he went into business on his own.

Between he and Ben Fletcher

working both sides of the street.

It's bound to bring heat.

- Suppose, just suppose, we get the two of 'em together

one more time.

- And?

- And, may the better man emerge victorious.

I think that's the expression.

- Yes sir.

The Commissioner read your followup report.

He thinks it's Galloway too.

He wants us to put a surveillance on him.

- Not gonna be movin' now.

- Why don't you tell the Commissioner?

- Ray Roberts,

he buys a lot of beef.

Why don't we get him to buy from Galloway?

- Sure, so why not?

- [Ray] Just get off my back!

- [Pepper] No, I can't!

- Pepper you don't realize what you're asking me to do...

- Yes I do.

I really, I know it's tough,

but we think Galloway had Al Markham murdered.

- Well what can I do about it?

- You can help us.

Ray, what we figure is Galloway was pressuring Al Markham

into buying stolen beef.

We want you to spread the word that you're interested

in the same kind of deal.

- I already bought a load of beef from them.

- How did that come about?

- Galloway came in here and told me

that he and Al had a prior deal.

And quite frankly the price was right.

- So right that it might have been stolen?

- So right that with these people you don't ask questions.

- You don't wanna cooperate with us do you?

- You really think Galloway had Al killed?

- I think we'd like to find out.

- You'll have to do it without my help Pepper.

I've got a wife and a baby.

I'm sorry.

(phone ringing)

- Yeah.

Hello.

- Hello Ben, it's me Willie, we got trouble.

- What kind?

- Your old friend Ollie Maxwell.

He rustled a truckload of beef.

- Well that figures.

So what?

- So what!

So what!

It was 50 head.

Besides, he's an amateur, he'll get caught.

He'll turn over on us in a flat minute.

You wanna spend 10 years in jail for cattle rustling?

- Hey, you know I just might have a notion.

- Yeah, about what?

- Well I know where Maxwell's goin' first.

Might be I could discourage him.

- Somebody has to Ben.

We both know that.

Now about that meat.

- Oh you'll get it, you'll get it Willie.

- I knew I could count on you Ben.

- Yeah we'll be in touch.

Goin' on young lady.

- I know, I'm supposed to be sleeping.

Ah, doctors, can't get enough rest in your condition

Mrs. Fletcher.

Now you gotta understand that.

There's only one trouble with all that rest, you know Ben?

- What's that?

- It gets to be real tiring,

and I don't get to see enough of you

as I do when my eyes are not shut.

So I miss you that much more.

- Now darlin I see you as much as I can.

- Don't I know that.

There's no husband better than you Ben Fletcher.

- Hey I wasn't fishin' for any compliments.

- Happens to be the truth.

It also happens that I'm the luckiest woman I've ever known.

And don't tell me you don't like a sweet word in your ear.

- Hey, I'd like another one of those.

- Okay?

- Okay.

For now.

- Who was that on the phone?

- Oh, business.

- Serious business?

- Do I look serious?

- You did.

A little when I came in.

- Routine.

Hey darlin what's the matter?

- I was just thinkin' how there's nothing routine

in all those medical bills you've been paying

for the last year.

- Come on now I told you.

I don't want to hear any more talk about that,

you understand?

- Dear Pepper.

These must have cost her a fortune.

- Still the same beautiful, good girl huh.

- I don't know when I've had a better time in years.

All those stories about her cases,

three men she works with,

and she said somethin' about you.

Somethin' I thought that I was the only one who saw in you.

- I'm gettin' better lookin' every year.

- It was a lot deeper than that Ben.

She said, he gets to be even more of a real man.

Kinder,

more tender,

more loving.

- Hey, gettin' another turn.

What do you say we go in the bedroom and

both of us get some of that famous rest of yours, huh?

Hmm?

(laughing)

(suspenseful music)

Easy now.

You know you're gonna get us all busted?

I was just lookin' in that truck of yours.

There ain't a rancher in the whole state

ain't gonna miss 50 head.

- Don't jump to conclusions Fletcher.

I got that from five different spreads.

- Alright, 50 head in the same county.

You know Galloway was right about you,

you're an amateur.

You put that thing down, I'm gonna take your truck.

- Like hell you are.

(gunfire booms)

(melancholy music)

(sighs)

- Hello Helen, yeah it's me.

Yeah I wish I were.

No I gotta go south instead, yeah.

Well there's been some big changes.

Well I don't want to talk business with you,

I mean that's just a bore, you know.

Hey, how do you feel?

Good, real good.

No no no, maybe I'm catchin' a little cold you know.

My throats a little sore but I'm fine, I'm alright.

Yeah.

Well, I guess I better be gettin' along now.

Say Helen, something I want to say first.

I love you Helen.

With all my heart.

I love you.

Sure.

I'll say it word for word when I get home.

Now did you ever know when I didn't keep a promise?

Now don't you start that now!

I love you Helen.

I'll see you.

Yeah real soon.

- Right okay, we'll have the suspect in custody for you.

Call you later.

That was Gainer from the Fresno Sheriff's Office.

Well they found a body.

Guy named Ollie Maxwell.

General cowhand in that area for years.

runs a string of restaurants.

He's gonna take it.

I'm sorry.

I let you down.

We wouldn't have been here if you hadn't called the police.

What happened with Maxwell?

- Well, it was him or me.

- Oh, come on Ben.

Ben, come on.

Come on.

It took a lot of courage to do that.

- We're calling and ambulance.

Hang in there Ben.

- Ambulance.

Hah, I ain't gonna need one of those.

Now Pepper, you listen to me.

When I was a little kid,

it was the worst thing in the world a man could do

steal somebody else's cattle,

but when my wife

my Helen,

she was sick,

and I didn't have any money,

and I got desperate,

had to do somethin'.

- You did what you had to do...

- Yeah but stealin' somebody else's cattle.

Don't you let her find out about that.

Don't you let her.

- I won't.

I won't, she won't...

- Those insurance papers... - She won't.

- That's all she's got. - She won't.

She won't find out.

I promise you.

(paper rustling)
