00:00:37,287 --> 00:00:38,538
NARRATOR: The film
which you are about to see
2
00:00:38,664 --> 00:00:43,751
is an account of the crimes committed
by Karen Bird and Jack Blueblood.
3
00:00:43,877 --> 00:00:49,632
By June of 1974, they would
be responsible for 11 homicides
4
00:00:49,758 --> 00:00:52,677
and wanted dead or alive
in six USS states.
5
00:01:04,940 --> 00:01:08,234
Karen Bird was born in the shadow
of the Appalachian Mountains
6
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,780
in Chattanooga, Tennessee,
on January 24th 1956.
7
00:01:12,906 --> 00:01:14,949
She weighed six pounds eight ounces
8
00:01:15,075 --> 00:01:19,746
and was described by the hospital staff
as being a particularly pleasant baby.
9
00:01:21,331 --> 00:01:24,208
Jack Blueblood was born a half-breed
seven years earlier
10
00:01:24,334 --> 00:01:27,420
on an Indian reservation
in South Dakota.
11
00:01:28,297 --> 00:01:30,381
His dather was a Lakota Sioux
12
00:01:30,507 --> 00:01:34,177
and his mother, who died giving birth,
was Irish Catholic.
13
00:01:35,929 --> 00:01:39,640
Try as he might, Jack's father
could never forgive his son
14
00:01:39,767 --> 00:01:42,059
for taking away the love of his life.
15
00:01:42,186 --> 00:01:44,270
(BEATING)
16
00:01:45,856 --> 00:01:50,485
Not a day went by that young Jack
wasn't reminded of his guilt.
17
00:01:50,611 --> 00:01:56,616
Unlike Jack, Karen grew up
a model child in a model American town.
18
00:01:56,742 --> 00:02:00,703
The only symptom of her budding
misbehavior was an aversion to church,
19
00:02:00,829 --> 00:02:06,000
and CCD,
and an obsession with guns.
20
00:02:06,126 --> 00:02:08,044
(CLATTERS)
21
00:02:08,170 --> 00:02:11,130
Jack inherited from his mother
a sweet tooth,
22
00:02:11,256 --> 00:02:14,675
her good looks,
and an extensive record collection.
23
00:02:16,011 --> 00:02:22,600
When Elvis Presley broke in 1955,
Jack became his disciple.
24
00:02:25,646 --> 00:02:29,398
ln EIvis and his music,
Jack felt something ancient.
25
00:02:29,525 --> 00:02:33,611
Something primal.
He feIt freedom.
26
00:02:36,156 --> 00:02:40,451
Both Jack and Karen would continue
to lead aimless, reckless lives
27
00:02:40,577 --> 00:02:43,162
throughout their adolescence,
28
00:02:43,288 --> 00:02:48,125
both searching for something better,
something more,
29
00:02:48,252 --> 00:02:52,296
something elusive
they couldn't quite define.
30
00:02:52,422 --> 00:02:56,425
lt was only a matter of time before
this yearning led them to one another.
31
00:02:58,512 --> 00:02:59,971
They would eventually meet
32
00:03:00,097 --> 00:03:02,139
at the Second Chances
RehabiIitation CIinic
33
00:03:02,266 --> 00:03:04,141
located in Floodwood, Michigan.
34
00:03:05,310 --> 00:03:08,312
Karen was sent there involuntarily
by her parents
35
00:03:08,438 --> 00:03:10,314
after she was suspended
from high school
36
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,986
and turned to nicotine,
vodka and teenage boys.
37
00:03:15,863 --> 00:03:19,532
Jack was sent there by the state
for his barbiturate addiction
38
00:03:19,658 --> 00:03:23,828
and an increasingly abnormal obsession
with Elvis Presley.
39
00:03:23,954 --> 00:03:26,247
WeII, at the time of your evaIuation,
40
00:03:26,373 --> 00:03:29,500
you said that EIvis
was straying from the righteous path
41
00:03:29,626 --> 00:03:33,588
and it was your duty
to guide his souI to saIvation.
42
00:03:33,714 --> 00:03:35,214
Yep.
43
00:03:36,425 --> 00:03:39,552
Diagnosed with a delusional disorder,
44
00:03:39,678 --> 00:03:44,682
Jack was prescribed daily sessions
of electroshock therapy
45
00:03:44,808 --> 00:03:46,976
at twice the recommended dosage.
46
00:03:47,102 --> 00:03:48,728
(SIZZLES)
47
00:03:51,064 --> 00:03:56,944
on March 13th 1974, Karen and Jack
would cross paths for the first time,
48
00:03:57,070 --> 00:03:59,780
setting in motion one
of the most destructive love affairs
49
00:03:59,907 --> 00:04:02,199
in the annals of US crime.
50
00:04:02,326 --> 00:04:03,826
JACK: Get your fuckin' paws off me, man!
51
00:04:03,952 --> 00:04:07,830
My peopIe was born here in this dirt
and I'II do as I goddamn pIease!
52
00:04:08,916 --> 00:04:10,291
Can I heIp you?
53
00:04:10,417 --> 00:04:11,417
(CLATTERS)
54
00:04:37,778 --> 00:04:42,907
So what's a pretty girl Iike you doing
here stuck with aII these juggIe heads?
55
00:04:43,033 --> 00:04:45,368
I don't know.
56
00:04:45,494 --> 00:04:49,330
My parents thought I shouId take it easy
for a whiIe, I guess.
57
00:04:49,456 --> 00:04:52,541
- I got nerves.
- Yeah, they say I got the nerves too.
58
00:04:53,752 --> 00:04:57,088
I mean, how can't a smart person
with a brain have the nerves?
59
00:04:57,214 --> 00:05:00,049
You see the world we Iive in?
You gotta wonder.
60
00:05:00,175 --> 00:05:02,301
It's the peopIe that don't have nerves
61
00:05:02,427 --> 00:05:05,054
who shouId be Iocked up in here,
I think.
62
00:05:05,180 --> 00:05:09,308
- They're the reaI suspicious ones.
- Yeah, I guess.
63
00:05:11,603 --> 00:05:14,730
- So what's your name?
- Karen.
64
00:05:14,856 --> 00:05:17,984
- That's a pretty name.
- Thanka.
65
00:05:18,902 --> 00:05:21,320
My name's Jack BIuebIood.
66
00:05:21,446 --> 00:05:23,447
(CHATTER OVER WALKIE-TALKIE)
67
00:05:27,703 --> 00:05:28,828
Can I see you again?
68
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,957
- Maybe.
- I gotta get.
69
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,219
Hey. He's in the Iadies' room.
70
00:05:51,601 --> 00:05:53,019
(MUFFLED VOICES)
71
00:05:53,145 --> 00:05:54,186
- (LOUD THUD)
- GUARD: Ow!
72
00:05:54,312 --> 00:05:56,522
(GLASS SHATTERS)
73
00:05:56,648 --> 00:06:00,860
I just don't wanna be some...
74
00:06:02,029 --> 00:06:03,863
Chattanooga chambermaid.
75
00:06:04,656 --> 00:06:06,907
I want something different.
76
00:06:08,035 --> 00:06:09,660
Like what, Karen?
77
00:06:11,621 --> 00:06:16,333
- I don't know reaIIy.
- And that is the crux of your anxiety.
78
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:19,211
The unknown.
79
00:06:21,256 --> 00:06:24,133
- You mind if I have a smoke?
- No.
80
00:06:34,853 --> 00:06:37,688
- Dr Sanborn, can I ask you something?
- Of course.
81
00:06:38,940 --> 00:06:42,151
Why is that Jack BIuebIood guy here?
82
00:06:42,277 --> 00:06:45,821
Because he hears voices in his head
that teII him to kiII.
83
00:06:46,656 --> 00:06:49,658
- I aIso think he might be queer.
- (LAUGHS)
84
00:06:49,785 --> 00:06:52,745
You can Iaugh if you want to but
Jack BIuebIood is a very dangerous man.
85
00:06:52,871 --> 00:06:56,582
You need to stay away from him.
Trust me.
86
00:07:06,802 --> 00:07:10,513
On top of soIar fkares and sun spots,
87
00:07:10,639 --> 00:07:13,224
what I'm reaIIy most freaked about
is pandemics.
88
00:07:14,518 --> 00:07:16,435
Toby! Get!
89
00:07:21,316 --> 00:07:23,234
Checkmate.
90
00:07:25,737 --> 00:07:29,198
LittIe birdie toId me
you snitched on my hiding spot.
91
00:07:29,324 --> 00:07:30,574
Oh, yeah?
92
00:07:30,700 --> 00:07:35,287
Look, sugar tits, I don't know
who the fuck you think you are,
93
00:07:35,413 --> 00:07:37,123
but there's ruIes around here.
94
00:07:37,249 --> 00:07:39,041
Don't caII me sugar tits.
95
00:07:39,167 --> 00:07:43,420
RuIe number one, I'II caII you
whatever the fuck I wanna caII you.
96
00:07:43,547 --> 00:07:46,465
RuIe two, do not cross me.
97
00:07:49,136 --> 00:07:52,930
I carry artiIIery in my boot just Iike
the King and I ain't afraid to use it.
98
00:07:54,057 --> 00:07:57,059
I'm 50% Irish, 50% Lakota Sioux.
99
00:08:02,107 --> 00:08:04,275
I'm 100% white trash.
100
00:08:08,363 --> 00:08:11,198
NARRATOR: Jack and Karen
fell for each other quickly.
101
00:08:16,538 --> 00:08:19,456
According to an entry
in Karen's diary at the time,
102
00:08:19,583 --> 00:08:22,543
Jack is unlike anyone
she'd ever met before.
103
00:08:22,669 --> 00:08:24,795
KAREN: Sure, he's crazy but he's alive.
104
00:08:25,672 --> 00:08:28,340
He's got mercury for blood
and fire in his eyes.
105
00:08:28,466 --> 00:08:30,968
And although he might look rough
and primitive,
106
00:08:31,094 --> 00:08:33,596
deep down he's sensitive and kind.
107
00:08:33,722 --> 00:08:36,974
Last week at movie night,
he cried during "Pride of the Yankees",
108
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:41,770
and he whittled me a statuette of
the Virgin Mary out of a bar of Lava.
109
00:08:43,315 --> 00:08:45,774
He says that sometimes
his head feels like it's crowded
110
00:08:45,901 --> 00:08:49,820
with a bunch of black dogs who won't
quit barking. lt drives him mad.
111
00:08:50,947 --> 00:08:52,865
And l can relate to that feeling.
112
00:08:53,825 --> 00:08:57,620
Plus we tell each other secrets
we ain't never told anyone before.
113
00:08:57,746 --> 00:09:02,791
When I was eight years oId, I kiIIed
a baby bIuebird just to watch it die.
114
00:09:02,918 --> 00:09:04,501
I feeI bad about that.
115
00:09:05,837 --> 00:09:08,714
I Iike The Beach Boys
more than The BeatIes.
116
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,717
Don't teII anyone. It's controversiaI.
117
00:09:13,053 --> 00:09:17,932
My one true dream in Iife
is to step foot into the Pacific Ocean,
118
00:09:18,058 --> 00:09:23,938
feeI the warm frothy water on my Iegs,
breathe in the fresh saIty air.
119
00:09:25,982 --> 00:09:27,274
Your turn.
120
00:09:29,110 --> 00:09:31,028
I hate my daddy.
121
00:09:31,154 --> 00:09:35,741
My favorite month of the year is October
when the air smeIIs aII wet and fun.
122
00:09:36,660 --> 00:09:39,411
When I Iisten to EIvis,
it's Iike the gospeI.
123
00:09:39,537 --> 00:09:41,372
Those two minutes and 30 seconds
124
00:09:41,498 --> 00:09:46,377
I forget I'm just a kid trapped
in a box somewhere waiting to die.
125
00:09:46,503 --> 00:09:48,170
I'm free, baby.
126
00:10:08,733 --> 00:10:13,904
You are the most beautifuI, most far-out
chick I've ever seen in my whoIe Iife.
127
00:10:17,409 --> 00:10:21,036
NARRATOR: Karen had never felt this way
about a boy before.
128
00:10:22,205 --> 00:10:27,418
When she was with him she didn't feel
that funny, lonesome feeling,
129
00:10:27,544 --> 00:10:29,753
and neither did he.
130
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:36,176
But this carefree time
would soon come to an end.
131
00:10:47,188 --> 00:10:49,398
PATIENT: FeIt Iike the waIIs
were caving in,
132
00:10:49,524 --> 00:10:53,986
Iike the air was disappearing
and the sky was faIIing.
133
00:10:54,112 --> 00:10:58,782
Like nothing was reaI no more
and I was being erased from it aII.
134
00:11:00,410 --> 00:11:02,369
Like I was being rubbed out.
135
00:11:03,580 --> 00:11:05,789
DOCTOR: Very courageous.
Thank you for sharing that.
136
00:11:05,915 --> 00:11:09,543
DOCTOR: AII right, everyone,
Iet's discuss what Toby toId us.

(KNOCKING)
138
00:11:20,930 --> 00:11:24,266
- Who's there?
- JACK: It's me, baby. Open up.
139
00:11:24,392 --> 00:11:28,062
- What's the password?
- JACK: Pretty pIease. Open up.
140
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,281
I gotta teII you something.
I gotta teII you something. HoId on.
141
00:11:39,783 --> 00:11:41,033
What?
142
00:11:42,077 --> 00:11:45,704
Now, we've been going steady
for a coupIe of weeka now. Right?
143
00:11:45,830 --> 00:11:47,998
So there's something
you shouId know about me.
144
00:11:48,124 --> 00:11:51,877
- OK.
- A coupIe of years back...
145
00:11:52,837 --> 00:11:55,923
My dead mama made contact with me.
146
00:11:56,049 --> 00:12:01,512
She toId me that I gotta kiII EIvis.
147
00:12:03,681 --> 00:12:06,809
NARRATOR: By 1972,
it had become clear to Jack
148
00:12:06,935 --> 00:12:11,897
that a distinct change had occurred
in EIvis and his music.
149
00:12:12,023 --> 00:12:16,944
Shortly after the "Aloha From Hawaii"
special, while high on mezcal...

...Jack accidentally spun
his davorite Elvis record backwards,
152
00:12:22,117 --> 00:12:24,785
and claimed to have heard a message
from his dead mother

00:12:24,911 --> 00:12:26,995
spinning in the grooves of the wax.
154
00:12:27,997 --> 00:12:30,958
(DISTORTED VOICE)
Kill Elvis.
155
00:12:31,751 --> 00:12:48,434
Kill Elvis.

EIvis, Iike EIvis EIvis?
157
00:12:55,191 --> 00:12:57,901
Look, I knew you were gonna say that
and I know it sounds crazy, baby,
158
00:12:58,027 --> 00:13:02,406
but you gotta trust me on this one, OK?
Look, I got proof.
159
00:13:03,992 --> 00:13:09,663
Elvis is pIaying the Sports CoIiseum
in Los AngeIes, CaIifornia, on May 11th.
160
00:13:10,832 --> 00:13:14,376
Which aIso happens
to be my dead mama's birthday.
161
00:13:14,502 --> 00:13:18,297
Now, does that sound Iike a coincidence
to you? Cos it don't to me.
162
00:13:18,423 --> 00:13:21,133
- What are you trying to say?
- I'm gonna bust out of here.
163
00:13:21,259 --> 00:13:24,428
I'm gonna hitch west
and I'm gonna kiII the son of a bitch.
164
00:13:25,889 --> 00:13:28,348

OVER RADIO: A seIect committee
of the United States Senate
239
00:21:23,074 --> 00:21:26,743
is about to begin pubic hearings
on something called Watergate.
240
00:21:26,869 --> 00:21:29,371
one year ago today,
Watergate was just an address,
241
00:21:29,497 --> 00:21:32,415
a rather fancy, expensive address
in this capital city,
242
00:21:32,541 --> 00:21:35,210
but now it has come to symbolize
much more.
243
00:21:35,336 --> 00:21:39,589
The word "crisis" is perhaps too mild
to apply to Watergate.
244

has been shaken,

accusations and revelations.

not yet proved.

despite all his trying otherwise,

had somehow gotten caught
in the lazy river of time.
253
00:22:17,586 --> 00:22:20,755
At 39 years old,
he had more than betrayed

stopped seeing his movies,

this stupid teIevision.
332
00:27:04,999 --> 00:27:07,000
And when nothing's on,
I hang out with Kimbo.
333
00:27:07,126 --> 00:27:09,252
Do you remember Kimbo,
the IittIe handicapped kid?
334
00:27:09,378 --> 00:27:12,130
He's so annoying.
335
00:27:12,256 --> 00:27:16,968
Look, you don't wanna get yourseIf
mixed up or kiIIed on our account, OK?
336
00:27:17,094 --> 00:27:21,139
We got an objective. We can't have
any dead weight. I'm sorry, buddy.
337
00:27:21,265 --> 00:27:26,686
- Oh, my. You're finaIIy doing it, huh?
- That's right.
338
00:27:26,812 --> 00:27:30,231
This is big. This is big.
He's been thinking about this for years.
339
00:27:30,357 --> 00:27:31,607
That's exactIy right.
340
00:27:31,734 --> 00:27:34,319
That's why I'm gonna
need to get that map I gave to you.
341
00:27:36,030 --> 00:27:37,739
Yeah.
342
00:27:37,865 --> 00:27:39,741
NARRATOR: Before Jack was committed,
343
00:27:39,867 --> 00:27:42,869
he had buried
a duffel bag full of guns,
344
00:27:42,995 --> 00:27:46,456
money
and rare first-edition comic books.
345
00:27:46,582 --> 00:27:49,542
He drew out a map of its location
and wrote the directions in pig Latin
346
00:27:49,668 --> 00:27:52,170
and entrusted it
in Teijo's safe-keeping
347
00:27:52,296 --> 00:27:53,838
while he was away from home.
348
00:27:53,964 --> 00:27:57,759
Teijo, this is aII I have.
349
00:27:58,635 --> 00:28:01,095
This is everything.
350
00:28:01,221 --> 00:28:06,100
You're my best friend but if you
fuck this up, I wiII kiII you.
351
00:28:07,853 --> 00:28:09,562
You can trust me, Jack.
352
00:28:14,568 --> 00:28:17,653
TEIJO: Oh, I must have seen that movie,
Midnight Cowboy, I don't know,
353
00:28:17,780 --> 00:28:20,239
Iike seven times in the theater.
It was so good.
354
00:28:20,366 --> 00:28:22,241
KAREN: Is that the one about
the two queer men?
355
00:28:22,368 --> 00:28:24,327
- TEIJO: Yeah.
- KAREN: Yeah, I Iike that one too.
356
00:28:24,453 --> 00:28:27,580
JACK: They were not queer in that movie,
they were friends.
357
00:28:27,706 --> 00:28:31,793
It was about friendship. Get y'aII's
heads out of the gutter, man.

(KAREN LAUGHS)
359

- JACK: What's so funny?
- KAREN: Nothing.
360
00:28:42,179 --> 00:28:45,890
Goddammit, Teijo.
This don't make no sense.
361
00:28:47,017 --> 00:28:49,268
We shouId have found it by now.
362
00:28:49,395 --> 00:28:52,647

(LAUGHS)
366
00:29:25,139 --> 00:29:28,766
Teijo, where's the money?
367
00:29:29,893 --> 00:29:31,769
Oh, I don't know.
368
00:29:34,231 --> 00:29:37,817
- What do you mean, you don't know?
- I don't know.
369
00:29:38,861 --> 00:29:42,405
Teijo, you got about five seconds
before I come over there.
370
00:29:43,449 --> 00:29:47,827
It's gone. OK? It's gone.
I used it aII, it's gone.
371

No!
372

- Come here.
- KAREN: Jack!
373
00:29:54,168 --> 00:29:56,669

00:30:09,057 --> 00:30:12,393
Estrogen piIIs. Lots of them.

00:30:13,645 --> 00:30:15,771
What the fuck are you taIking about?!
379
00:30:15,898 --> 00:30:20,735
Read about it in Newsweek. They're
supposed to make you more womanIy.
380
00:30:20,861 --> 00:30:25,281
So if I get my operation, I want my body
to accept my new girly parts.
381
00:30:27,743 --> 00:30:31,245
- Are you out of your goddamn mind?!
- That's not fair.
382
00:30:31,371 --> 00:30:33,623
I wasn't gonna Ieave the money in there
for aII the wormies.
383

NARRATOR: Jack hadn't looked his dather
in the eyes for many years.
401
00:31:55,956 --> 00:31:58,416
Doing so then
was the closest he ever came

to feeling
a sense of love for the old man.

the silver-spoon delinquent,

NARRATOR: That afternoon,
Karen felt a sensation in her gut
575
00:49:23,044 --> 00:49:25,462
she hadn't felt for a long time.
576
00:49:29,091 --> 00:49:32,886
She looked for familiar shapes
and daces in the desert clouds,
577
00:49:33,012 --> 00:49:35,055
but there were none to be found.
578
00:49:39,352 --> 00:49:41,770
At a truck stop in Mexican Hat, Utah,
579
00:49:41,896 --> 00:49:46,483
she stole from the book rack
a "Vixen" magazine for Jack,
580
00:49:46,609 --> 00:49:50,028
a "Total Teen" for Teijo,
581
00:49:50,154 --> 00:49:53,615
and a picture book
on Ancient Egypt for herself.
582
00:50:00,581 --> 00:50:04,167
on their long car ride
to the Grand Canyon,
583
00:50:04,293 --> 00:50:07,837
she wrote a short memoir about herself
in hieroglyphics.
584
00:50:09,215 --> 00:50:11,841
She didn't share it with Jack or Teijo,
585
00:50:11,967 --> 00:50:14,719
and when she arrived
at the Grand Canyon later that day
586
00:50:14,845 --> 00:50:16,971
she ripped it up into a million pieces
587
00:50:17,098 --> 00:50:21,726
and watched as her biography fell
to the bottom of the earth like snow.
588

KAREN: Did you know the sun's gonna
burn out one day?
589
00:50:40,371 --> 00:50:43,873
- TEIJO: My God. ReaIIy?
- KAREN: True story.
590
00:50:43,999 --> 00:50:45,792
When?
591
00:50:45,918 --> 00:50:48,211
About five biIIion years, give or take.
592
00:50:49,463 --> 00:50:50,797
That's crazy.
593
00:50:50,923 --> 00:50:56,970
Yeah, once it runs out of hydrogen,
it'II become, Iike, a red giant,
594
00:50:57,096 --> 00:51:01,599
and then expand and swaIIow the Earth
and aII the other pIanets.
595
00:51:01,726 --> 00:51:04,728
And then it'II expIode and turn
into a bIack dwarf or something.
596
00:51:04,854 --> 00:51:07,230
BIack dwarf? No, thank you.
597
00:51:08,357 --> 00:51:11,901

when I was a IittIe girl, but...
598
00:51:12,695 --> 00:51:15,405

seems Iike an eternity.

01:13:27,236 --> 01:13:31,698
# Now you want someone new
835
01:13:33,534 --> 01:13:38,872
# And it breaks my heart
836
01:13:38,998 --> 01:13:40,916
# whoa-oh
837
01:13:41,042 --> 01:13:47,839
# I'm so hurt
838
01:13:49,217 --> 01:13:53,678
# Much more than you'll ever know
839
01:13:57,892 --> 01:14:01,937
# Yes, darling, l'm so hurt
840
01:14:05,191 --> 01:14:08,318
# Because l still love you so
841
01:14:12,406 --> 01:14:13,406
# But
842
01:14:15,451 --> 01:14:22,874
# But even though you hurt me
843
01:14:23,668 --> 01:14:29,881
# Like nobody else could ever do
844
01:14:32,135 --> 01:14:35,053
# I would never
845
01:14:36,514 --> 01:14:43,186
# Ever hurt
846
01:14:44,188 --> 01:14:50,318
# Hurt you
847

(GUNSHOT)
849
01:15:52,548 --> 01:15:56,676
NARRATOR: Looking into Elvis's eyes,
it aII became cIear to Jack.
850
01:15:56,802 --> 01:16:00,805
This was the man who sang "That's All
Right" and "Blue Moon of Kentucky"
851
01:16:00,932 --> 01:16:04,976
and "Mystery Train."
This was his hero.
852
01:16:05,102 --> 01:16:09,064
lt was a voice that had gotten him
through many lonely nights.
853
01:16:09,190 --> 01:16:12,359
This was Elvis Aaron Presley.
854
01:16:12,485 --> 01:16:14,402
They were dream brothers,
855
01:16:14,528 --> 01:16:18,448
and they were connected
by some inextricable cosmic force.
856
01:16:23,454 --> 01:16:26,206
And then Jack died.
857
01:16:42,223 --> 01:16:44,140
lf you're just joining us,
we have breaking news
858
01:16:44,267 --> 01:16:45,850
from the Beverly Canyon Hotel,
859
01:16:45,977 --> 01:16:48,687
where there has been
an assassination attempt on Elvis.
860
01:16:48,813 --> 01:16:50,522
Elvis's unidentified assailant
861
01:16:50,648 --> 01:16:53,858
was shot down by one of
the Memphis Mafia, Judd Feathers,
862
01:16:53,985 --> 01:16:57,112
who we're hearing died soon after
by wounds sustained to his chest.
863
01:16:57,238 --> 01:16:59,614
We're going live
to an interview with Elvis now.
864
01:16:59,740 --> 01:17:02,492
My old friend J Feathers is, uh...
865
01:17:04,453 --> 01:17:07,539
Well, he's a hero and he saved my life.
866
01:17:08,833 --> 01:17:10,875
We're gonna dedicate
tonight's show to him.
867
01:17:11,002 --> 01:17:13,545
NARRATOR: The whole thing
was covered up by RCA and the Colonel,
868
01:17:13,671 --> 01:17:15,839
who feared that the incident
might tarnish
869
01:17:15,965 --> 01:17:19,592
Elvis's already tenuous relationship
with the public and his fans.
870
01:17:19,719 --> 01:17:23,430
The incident lives on
in Elvis's can of urban legends,
871
01:17:23,556 --> 01:17:26,349
along with his supposed abduction
by aliens
872
01:17:26,475 --> 01:17:30,103
and the faking of his own death
three years later.
873

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
875
01:18:09,226 --> 01:18:10,894
(WILD CHEERING)
876
01:18:37,671 --> 01:18:41,591
Elvis played to the Los Angeles crowd
that evening like he was 18.
877
01:18:43,010 --> 01:18:45,762
He had found his Shangri-La.
878
01:18:45,888 --> 01:18:50,809
He had found saIvation.
He had found the righteous path.
879
01:18:52,728 --> 01:18:54,604
And so had Jack.
880
01:18:58,859 --> 01:19:04,155
As for Karen, some say her car slid off
the highway and into the ocean,
881
01:19:04,281 --> 01:19:08,910
where she's still trapped underwater,
entombed by the sea.
882
01:19:09,036 --> 01:19:13,248
Others speculate she moved to Canada,
gave birth to Jack's child,
883
01:19:13,374 --> 01:19:18,169
and became what she ran away from
in the first place, her mother.
884
01:19:20,589 --> 01:19:23,883
The most popular story
is that she changed her name,
885
01:19:24,009 --> 01:19:27,470
laid low for a few years
and re-emerged a decade later
886
01:19:27,596 --> 01:19:33,351
as recording artist Jennifer Fever,
whose minor 1988 hit "Shangri-La Suite"
887
01:19:33,477 --> 01:19:36,980
was said to have been about
her brief affair with Jack Blueblood.
888
01:19:38,315 --> 01:19:41,734
As dar as the evidence is concerned,
she was Iast seen
889
01:19:41,861 --> 01:19:45,405
entering a gas-station bathroom
in Tulsa, oklahoma.
890
01:19:46,365 --> 01:19:49,284
Billy Freehall,
a transient male prostitute
891
01:19:49,410 --> 01:19:51,411
and the last person to see her alive,
892
01:19:51,537 --> 01:19:54,831
claimed he would never forget
the look on her dace.
893
01:19:54,957 --> 01:19:57,834
A mixture of freedom and despair.
894
01:19:57,960 --> 01:20:01,296
lt would stay with him
for the rest of his short life.
895
01:20:37,124 --> 01:20:40,835
Sure, the sun would burn out one day
896
01:20:40,961 --> 01:20:44,422
but that wasn't
for a very, very long time.
897
01:20:44,548 --> 01:20:47,842
The future was an endless highway,
898
01:20:47,968 --> 01:20:52,347
and Karen would follow the sun
untiI its end.
