1
00:01:35,362 --> 00:01:36,990
Joe?
2
00:01:38,599 --> 00:01:40,577
Joe Mannix?
3
00:01:40,601 --> 00:01:42,545
Wow, is it good to see you!
4
00:01:42,569 --> 00:01:44,113
Hello, Barney.
5
00:01:44,137 --> 00:01:45,748
What's it been, ten years?
6
00:01:45,772 --> 00:01:46,749
Yeah.
7
00:01:46,773 --> 00:01:48,818
Man, you haven't
changed one whisker.
8
00:01:48,842 --> 00:01:50,219
What's your secret, Joe?
9
00:01:50,243 --> 00:01:52,355
Staying away from
crowded cocktail parties.
10
00:01:53,614 --> 00:01:55,258
I really appreciate
you showing up.
11
00:01:55,282 --> 00:01:56,926
Well, only for my
favorite blocking back.
12
00:01:56,950 --> 00:01:58,561
I mean, if it hadn't
been for you,
13
00:01:58,585 --> 00:01:59,562
I wouldn't have
made All-Conference
14
00:01:59,586 --> 00:02:01,064
and had my pick of
the campus beauties.
15
00:02:01,088 --> 00:02:04,000
Hey, come on, let's get to
the bar and get you a drink.
16
00:02:04,024 --> 00:02:05,068
You think we can make it?
17
00:02:05,092 --> 00:02:06,069
Sure, follow me.
18
00:02:06,093 --> 00:02:08,426
Once a blocking back,
always a blocking back.
19
00:02:13,233 --> 00:02:14,944
Two scotches, Harry... neat.
20
00:02:14,968 --> 00:02:15,979
Right, Joe?
21
00:02:16,003 --> 00:02:17,213
Right.
22
00:02:17,237 --> 00:02:19,315
Well, I bet you were surprised
hearing from old Barney
23
00:02:19,339 --> 00:02:20,583
after all these years.
24
00:02:20,607 --> 00:02:21,985
Yeah, I was surprised.
25
00:02:22,009 --> 00:02:24,253
I thought you were
permanently settled in Hawaii,
26
00:02:24,277 --> 00:02:26,222
running a public relations firm.
27
00:02:26,246 --> 00:02:28,124
Well, I quit that a
couple of months ago.
28
00:02:28,148 --> 00:02:29,692
Thanks, Harry.
29
00:02:29,716 --> 00:02:32,328
I thought it would take a
sledgehammer to bust you loose.
30
00:02:32,352 --> 00:02:36,119
Well, come meet the sledgehammer
and the next governor of Hawaii.
31
00:02:43,330 --> 00:02:45,458
Feast your eyes
on a winner, Joe.
32
00:02:47,434 --> 00:02:49,912
His name's Arthur Danford,
33
00:02:49,936 --> 00:02:53,049
and he's my one and
only project from now on.
34
00:02:53,073 --> 00:02:54,784
I'm handling his campaign.
35
00:02:54,808 --> 00:02:55,808
Come on.
36
00:02:57,644 --> 00:02:58,821
Arthur?
37
00:02:58,845 --> 00:03:00,356
I'd like you to
meet an old buddy.
38
00:03:00,380 --> 00:03:01,357
This is Joe Mannix.
39
00:03:01,381 --> 00:03:02,425
Arthur Danford.
40
00:03:02,449 --> 00:03:03,593
Mr. Mannix, a pleasure.
41
00:03:03,617 --> 00:03:05,862
Nice meeting you, Mr. Danford.
42
00:03:05,886 --> 00:03:07,130
Good luck with your campaign.
43
00:03:07,154 --> 00:03:09,332
Oh, thank you,
thank you very much.
44
00:03:09,356 --> 00:03:11,634
Even though my
candidacy isn't official yet.
45
00:03:11,658 --> 00:03:13,636
Come on, you're a shoo-in.
46
00:03:13,660 --> 00:03:15,405
Once the big boys fly
down from Washington
47
00:03:15,429 --> 00:03:16,863
and give you their blessings.
48
00:03:18,165 --> 00:03:21,544
That's what I hate about Barney,
always trying to tear me down.
49
00:03:21,568 --> 00:03:24,013
Well, now you can meet the
real reason some people think
50
00:03:24,037 --> 00:03:26,449
I might be able to attract
some votes, Mr. Mannix.
51
00:03:26,473 --> 00:03:27,684
My wife Laura.
52
00:03:27,708 --> 00:03:28,708
Excuse me.
53
00:03:33,346 --> 00:03:35,458
Look at them, Joe.
54
00:03:35,482 --> 00:03:37,427
The all-American couple.
55
00:03:37,451 --> 00:03:38,976
How can I lose?
56
00:03:42,522 --> 00:03:45,201
Mr. Danford, I'm afraid
I have an appointment.
57
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:46,703
Thank you very
much for the party.
58
00:03:46,727 --> 00:03:48,355
Well, thank you for coming.
59
00:04:37,177 --> 00:04:38,236
Come on out.
60
00:04:40,714 --> 00:04:41,714
Now.
61
00:04:54,094 --> 00:04:56,339
Darling, I want you to meet
a good friend of Barney's.
62
00:04:56,363 --> 00:04:57,607
Mr. Joe Mannix, my wife Laura.
63
00:04:57,631 --> 00:04:59,408
Pleasure, Mrs. Danford.
64
00:04:59,432 --> 00:05:01,025
Welcome to Los Angeles.
65
00:05:04,137 --> 00:05:06,048
Is something wrong, darling?
66
00:05:06,072 --> 00:05:07,784
Oh, no, no.
67
00:05:07,808 --> 00:05:09,585
It's probably all
the excitement.
68
00:05:09,609 --> 00:05:10,633
Thank you, Mr. Mannix.
69
00:05:13,947 --> 00:05:15,224
There's Senator
Ames and his wife.
70
00:05:15,248 --> 00:05:16,659
Would you excuse us, gentlemen?
71
00:05:16,683 --> 00:05:18,208
Come along.
72
00:05:43,577 --> 00:05:45,388
Lovely evening.
73
00:05:45,412 --> 00:05:48,291
Yes, it is, Mrs. Danford.
74
00:05:48,315 --> 00:05:49,926
You did recognize
me, didn't you?
75
00:05:49,950 --> 00:05:51,680
Mmm.
76
00:05:55,355 --> 00:05:57,533
Your name was Laura Rand.
77
00:05:57,557 --> 00:06:00,369
You were hiding in a closet
the night Vince Cola was killed
78
00:06:00,393 --> 00:06:02,638
12 years ago.
79
00:06:02,662 --> 00:06:04,907
It was a professional
gangland slaying
80
00:06:04,931 --> 00:06:06,676
that you had nothing to do with.
81
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:10,513
You can say the rest
of it, that I was a...
82
00:06:10,537 --> 00:06:13,516
An innocent,
stage-struck kid of 18,
83
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:15,051
who'd been in Hollywood
exactly a month.
84
00:06:15,075 --> 00:06:16,052
But...
85
00:06:16,076 --> 00:06:17,587
That's why I got
Lieutenant Malcolm
86
00:06:17,611 --> 00:06:19,021
to squash the
charge against you.
87
00:06:19,045 --> 00:06:22,191
That's why I put you on the
bus and sent you back home.
88
00:06:22,215 --> 00:06:24,560
I believed your story then.
89
00:06:24,584 --> 00:06:25,677
I believe it now.
90
00:06:27,587 --> 00:06:31,234
I guess I never did properly
thank you for what you did.
91
00:06:31,258 --> 00:06:33,090
Well, you were pretty upset.
92
00:06:35,929 --> 00:06:38,057
I'd say you still are.
93
00:06:39,900 --> 00:06:41,562
That night never ended.
94
00:06:45,906 --> 00:06:47,397
Someone else knows.
95
00:06:48,842 --> 00:06:51,175
I'm being blackmailed.
96
00:06:54,915 --> 00:06:55,992
How much do they want?
97
00:06:56,016 --> 00:06:59,729
This time, $10,000.
98
00:06:59,753 --> 00:07:02,098
Meaning it's happened before?
99
00:07:02,122 --> 00:07:04,353
In Hawaii.
100
00:07:08,261 --> 00:07:10,339
Right after Arthur
and I were married,
101
00:07:10,363 --> 00:07:13,609
our photograph
was in the papers.
102
00:07:13,633 --> 00:07:16,879
A few days later,
I received a letter.
103
00:07:16,903 --> 00:07:18,414
What was the price then?
104
00:07:18,438 --> 00:07:20,383
Five thousand.
105
00:07:20,407 --> 00:07:23,286
I managed to raise the money
and send it to a post office box
106
00:07:23,310 --> 00:07:25,721
here in Los Angeles.
107
00:07:25,745 --> 00:07:27,757
He swore it would
never happen again.
108
00:07:27,781 --> 00:07:29,725
Who swore?
109
00:07:29,749 --> 00:07:31,115
Hank Varsey.
110
00:07:32,686 --> 00:07:35,064
He was my boyfriend,
the one who drove me
111
00:07:35,088 --> 00:07:37,934
to Hollywood when I
ran away from home.
112
00:07:37,958 --> 00:07:40,469
We were in love, were
going to be married.
113
00:07:40,493 --> 00:07:42,405
He was so sure I'd
become a great actress.
114
00:07:42,429 --> 00:07:45,741
Like most pipe
dreams, it ended badly.
115
00:07:45,765 --> 00:07:47,543
When our money ran out,
116
00:07:47,567 --> 00:07:53,015
he talked me into going on
dates with men like Vince Cola.
117
00:07:53,039 --> 00:07:54,717
Said it would help my career.
118
00:07:54,741 --> 00:07:59,388
Now he figures it's
time to cash in again.
119
00:07:59,412 --> 00:08:01,210
I suppose so.
120
00:08:05,285 --> 00:08:06,896
How did he get
in touch with you?
121
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,466
We rented this
house for a month.
122
00:08:10,490 --> 00:08:13,736
When we arrived yesterday,
there was a letter waiting.
123
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,572
It reminded me again what
exposure of my past would do
124
00:08:16,596 --> 00:08:18,407
to my husband's
political career.
125
00:08:18,431 --> 00:08:21,344
Anything else?
126
00:08:21,368 --> 00:08:23,646
Just instructions where
to leave the money.
127
00:08:23,670 --> 00:08:24,647
When?
128
00:08:24,671 --> 00:08:26,833
Tonight at 11:00.
129
00:08:29,342 --> 00:08:30,435
Do you have it ready?
130
00:08:33,313 --> 00:08:35,291
It's in my bedroom.
131
00:08:35,315 --> 00:08:37,426
I've been trying all day
to think of an excuse
132
00:08:37,450 --> 00:08:39,282
to tell Arthur when
I leave the party.
133
00:08:42,789 --> 00:08:44,587
I could deliver
the money for you.
134
00:08:46,192 --> 00:08:47,970
If you could get it to me.
135
00:08:47,994 --> 00:08:49,963
I don't understand.
136
00:08:51,364 --> 00:08:53,642
Maybe I can persuade Mr. Varsey
137
00:08:53,666 --> 00:08:55,478
that this is the
end of the line.
138
00:08:55,502 --> 00:08:57,971
You'd do that for me?
139
00:08:59,406 --> 00:09:00,772
Why?
140
00:09:03,676 --> 00:09:08,624
Well, let's just say that I bet
on a girl I met 12 years ago.
141
00:09:08,648 --> 00:09:10,014
The bet's still on.
142
00:11:13,306 --> 00:11:15,317
Peggy, how about the coffee?
143
00:11:15,341 --> 00:11:17,653
Coming right up, Joe.
144
00:11:17,677 --> 00:11:19,889
That party you attended
last night at the Danfords'
145
00:11:19,913 --> 00:11:21,557
made the society page.
146
00:11:21,581 --> 00:11:23,526
Pretty fancy.
147
00:11:23,550 --> 00:11:24,860
Very fancy.
148
00:11:24,884 --> 00:11:26,614
I wore my Sunday suit.
149
00:11:29,489 --> 00:11:30,833
May I help you?
150
00:11:30,857 --> 00:11:32,101
It's all right, Peggy.
151
00:11:32,125 --> 00:11:35,604
Mrs. Danford, this is
my secretary, Peggy Fair.
152
00:11:35,628 --> 00:11:36,639
Hello.
153
00:11:36,663 --> 00:11:37,907
How do you do, Mrs. Danford.
154
00:11:37,931 --> 00:11:38,974
Would you like some coffee?
155
00:11:38,998 --> 00:11:40,476
Oh, no, thank you.
156
00:11:40,500 --> 00:11:41,677
Come in.
157
00:11:41,701 --> 00:11:42,701
Excuse me.
158
00:11:48,374 --> 00:11:51,353
Did you, um, did you
make the payment?
159
00:11:51,377 --> 00:11:54,023
I didn't get a chance to.
160
00:11:54,047 --> 00:11:55,124
What does that mean?
161
00:11:55,148 --> 00:11:58,327
Well, obviously
Hank Varsey didn't like
162
00:11:58,351 --> 00:11:59,395
my standing in for you.
163
00:11:59,419 --> 00:12:00,863
He might have figured
it was a double-cross.
164
00:12:00,887 --> 00:12:01,887
He took off.
165
00:12:04,557 --> 00:12:06,735
Now what do we do?
166
00:12:06,759 --> 00:12:07,886
Well, uh...
167
00:12:09,896 --> 00:12:13,609
Maybe we try... reaching him.
168
00:12:13,633 --> 00:12:14,633
How?
169
00:12:17,170 --> 00:12:18,981
Is there anyone
else you remember
170
00:12:19,005 --> 00:12:21,133
from that period of your life?
171
00:12:25,511 --> 00:12:27,256
Even one name might help.
172
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:28,407
We've got to find him.
173
00:12:30,550 --> 00:12:32,644
Trust me, Laura.
174
00:12:35,121 --> 00:12:39,201
Well, there was Roy Benson.
175
00:12:39,225 --> 00:12:40,502
Hank knew him from the Army.
176
00:12:40,526 --> 00:12:41,994
He called him
the day we arrived.
177
00:12:43,730 --> 00:12:47,376
Roy was a theatrical
agent, not very successful.
178
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,266
Anyone else?
179
00:12:52,038 --> 00:12:53,165
Belle Hogan.
180
00:12:54,874 --> 00:12:56,452
Roy introduced me to her.
181
00:12:56,476 --> 00:13:01,190
She ran a telephone service.
182
00:13:01,214 --> 00:13:04,776
Actually, it was to
arrange dates for her girls.
183
00:13:06,519 --> 00:13:08,631
Hmm.
184
00:13:08,655 --> 00:13:11,887
And she set you
up with Vince Cola.
185
00:13:14,260 --> 00:13:15,704
He liked me.
186
00:13:15,728 --> 00:13:20,242
He told Belle not to send
me on any other dates.
187
00:13:20,266 --> 00:13:22,235
The second time I
saw him, he was killed.
188
00:13:24,637 --> 00:13:27,716
And you're sure there's
no one else who knew you
189
00:13:27,740 --> 00:13:29,402
during that time?
190
00:13:32,845 --> 00:13:34,279
No.
191
00:13:36,649 --> 00:13:38,394
All right.
192
00:13:38,418 --> 00:13:41,964
I'll check out Benson
and Belle Hogan.
193
00:13:41,988 --> 00:13:44,099
I'll be in touch with you later.
194
00:13:44,123 --> 00:13:47,855
You know, I was grateful
for your help once.
195
00:13:50,163 --> 00:13:52,564
This time I don't think I
could survive without it.
196
00:14:12,151 --> 00:14:13,462
No... tell him.
197
00:14:13,486 --> 00:14:15,831
No, Art, he's not,
absolutely not.
198
00:14:15,855 --> 00:14:18,667
No, Arty, no, absolutely not.
199
00:14:18,691 --> 00:14:19,502
No, I'm telling you.
200
00:14:19,526 --> 00:14:22,324
Okay, call me
back if you want it.
201
00:14:23,363 --> 00:14:26,141
Well, welcome to the
Benson Acting Academy.
202
00:14:26,165 --> 00:14:28,644
Before filling out an
application for membership,
203
00:14:28,668 --> 00:14:31,013
you should know
there's a $50 initiation fee,
204
00:14:31,037 --> 00:14:33,529
which is reimbursed soon as I
get your career off and running.
205
00:14:34,607 --> 00:14:36,085
Now, what's your name?
206
00:14:36,109 --> 00:14:37,353
Joe Mannix.
207
00:14:37,377 --> 00:14:41,256
And thanks, but, uh, I've
already got a profession.
208
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,258
Oh...
209
00:14:43,282 --> 00:14:45,060
Private investigator?
210
00:14:45,084 --> 00:14:46,995
Hey, I run a legitimate
business here,
211
00:14:47,019 --> 00:14:48,630
specializing in
stars of tomorrow.
212
00:14:48,654 --> 00:14:50,232
How are you with the
ones from yesterday?
213
00:14:50,256 --> 00:14:51,400
What?
214
00:14:51,424 --> 00:14:52,768
Uh, forget it.
215
00:14:52,792 --> 00:14:54,136
I'm looking for Hank Varsey.
216
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,071
I was told you and he
were old Army buddies.
217
00:14:56,095 --> 00:14:58,040
So?
218
00:14:58,064 --> 00:15:00,008
Get in touch with him.
219
00:15:00,032 --> 00:15:01,276
Tell him I'm representing
220
00:15:01,300 --> 00:15:03,112
the lady he was
supposed to meet last night.
221
00:15:03,136 --> 00:15:04,179
I've got what he's looking for.
222
00:15:04,203 --> 00:15:05,180
What lady is that?
223
00:15:05,204 --> 00:15:06,515
Uh-uh.
224
00:15:06,539 --> 00:15:08,217
That's between Varsey and me.
225
00:15:08,241 --> 00:15:11,587
But there's a hundred dollars
in it for you if we connect.
226
00:15:11,611 --> 00:15:14,156
I'll be waiting in my office.
227
00:15:14,180 --> 00:15:16,658
Look, I haven't seen
Hank Varsey in years.
228
00:15:16,682 --> 00:15:18,127
So, run him down.
229
00:15:18,151 --> 00:15:20,071
Hundred dollars, you
don't even have to audition.
230
00:15:37,937 --> 00:15:39,214
Any calls, Peggy?
231
00:15:39,238 --> 00:15:40,916
One... Hank Varsey.
232
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:41,984
Bull's-eye.
233
00:15:42,008 --> 00:15:43,152
What?
234
00:15:43,176 --> 00:15:44,353
What did he say?
235
00:15:44,377 --> 00:15:46,422
Well, he got your message
and he'll meet you tonight
236
00:15:46,446 --> 00:15:47,623
same time, same place.
237
00:15:47,647 --> 00:15:49,558
Anything on Belle Hogan?
238
00:15:49,582 --> 00:15:50,993
Nothing yet.
239
00:15:51,017 --> 00:15:54,897
But Joe, these people, Roy
Benson and Belle Hogan,
240
00:15:54,921 --> 00:15:57,833
their backgrounds
are... well, you know.
241
00:15:57,857 --> 00:15:59,334
What can they
possibly have to do
242
00:15:59,358 --> 00:16:00,769
with a person like
Laura Danford?
243
00:16:00,793 --> 00:16:05,026
Just ships passing
in the night, Peggy.
244
00:16:28,221 --> 00:16:30,299
Hey, you're right
on time, Mannix.
245
00:16:30,323 --> 00:16:31,567
Benson.
246
00:16:31,591 --> 00:16:32,701
Where's Varsey?
247
00:16:32,725 --> 00:16:34,023
Inside, waiting.
248
00:16:35,194 --> 00:16:36,492
Come on.
249
00:17:11,998 --> 00:17:15,444
Just like you said,
10,000 beautiful dollars.
250
00:17:15,468 --> 00:17:16,697
One grand is mine, right?
251
00:17:27,980 --> 00:17:30,292
How's your head?
252
00:17:30,316 --> 00:17:31,627
Great.
253
00:17:31,651 --> 00:17:34,763
Well, it looks okay.
254
00:17:34,787 --> 00:17:39,067
Well, you ready to talk
about the late Roy Benson?
255
00:17:39,091 --> 00:17:41,737
Yeah, well, I met him just
once before, earlier today.
256
00:17:41,761 --> 00:17:43,839
Why did you meet
him here tonight?
257
00:17:43,863 --> 00:17:46,975
I was making a
drop for a client.
258
00:17:46,999 --> 00:17:48,810
Who's being blackmailed?
259
00:17:48,834 --> 00:17:51,346
I can't answer that, Adam.
260
00:17:51,370 --> 00:17:53,348
But just so you won't
go away empty-handed,
261
00:17:53,372 --> 00:17:56,518
I'd suggest you put out
an APB on Hank Varsey.
262
00:17:56,542 --> 00:17:57,553
The blackmailer.
263
00:17:57,577 --> 00:17:59,454
Yeah.
264
00:17:59,478 --> 00:18:01,743
And the man who
murdered Roy Benson.
265
00:18:06,152 --> 00:18:07,518
Wrap it up, Charlie.
266
00:18:14,927 --> 00:18:16,638
Mr. Mannix, hello.
267
00:18:16,662 --> 00:18:18,106
Mrs. Danford, please sit down.
268
00:18:18,130 --> 00:18:20,809
Thank you.
269
00:18:20,833 --> 00:18:21,810
Drink?
270
00:18:21,834 --> 00:18:22,844
Yes, please.
271
00:18:22,868 --> 00:18:23,868
Martini.
272
00:18:25,671 --> 00:18:27,537
Same for me, a
martini for the lady.
273
00:18:31,477 --> 00:18:33,589
I read about Roy Benson's death.
274
00:18:33,613 --> 00:18:35,057
Did Hank kill him?
275
00:18:35,081 --> 00:18:37,893
It looks like it.
276
00:18:37,917 --> 00:18:39,461
They were probably
working together.
277
00:18:39,485 --> 00:18:41,396
Did he get the money?
278
00:18:41,420 --> 00:18:43,231
I assume he did.
279
00:18:43,255 --> 00:18:45,200
It was gone.
280
00:18:45,224 --> 00:18:46,268
Barney!
281
00:18:46,292 --> 00:18:48,537
Mrs. Danford... Joe.
282
00:18:48,561 --> 00:18:51,173
Barney, sit down, join us.
283
00:18:51,197 --> 00:18:55,410
Mrs. Danford, I must
insist that you leave at once.
284
00:18:55,434 --> 00:18:57,212
Why?
285
00:18:57,236 --> 00:19:01,116
Out in public drinking with a
man who's not your husband?
286
00:19:01,140 --> 00:19:02,551
What if someone recognized you?
287
00:19:02,575 --> 00:19:04,886
Barney, we were
just having a drink.
288
00:19:04,910 --> 00:19:08,090
Have you any idea what
even a hint of scandal would do
289
00:19:08,114 --> 00:19:10,225
to your husband's
chances at this time?
290
00:19:10,249 --> 00:19:12,561
Oh, come on, Barney.
291
00:19:12,585 --> 00:19:13,862
Joe...
292
00:19:13,886 --> 00:19:14,979
Here we are, sir.
293
00:19:21,927 --> 00:19:22,951
Thank you.
294
00:19:24,864 --> 00:19:26,541
You've been around
long enough to know
295
00:19:26,565 --> 00:19:28,610
how damaging a
rendezvous like this can be.
296
00:19:28,634 --> 00:19:30,012
Right this minute,
297
00:19:30,036 --> 00:19:32,180
Arthur's meeting with
the chairman of his party.
298
00:19:32,204 --> 00:19:34,750
The endorsement is
practically in his hands.
299
00:19:34,774 --> 00:19:38,186
And here you two are preparing
to flush it down the sewer.
300
00:19:38,210 --> 00:19:41,723
Barney, this was a
perfectly innocent meeting.
301
00:19:41,747 --> 00:19:43,625
I don't care if you're a
brother-and-sister act.
302
00:19:43,649 --> 00:19:45,694
Laura must not be
seen in a place like this
303
00:19:45,718 --> 00:19:47,162
with anyone but her husband.
304
00:19:47,186 --> 00:19:48,997
All right, Barney.
305
00:19:49,021 --> 00:19:50,785
It won't happen again.
306
00:19:52,324 --> 00:19:55,003
I think you better
leave first, Joe.
307
00:19:55,027 --> 00:19:56,505
Don't worry about the check.
308
00:19:56,529 --> 00:19:58,140
I'll take care of it.
309
00:19:59,231 --> 00:20:01,257
Maybe you haven't
noticed, Barney...
310
00:20:02,401 --> 00:20:05,337
but these days I'm
calling my own signals.
311
00:20:07,873 --> 00:20:10,352
Look, Joe, I'm sorry
for coming on so strong,
312
00:20:10,376 --> 00:20:12,187
but there's a
lot riding on this.
313
00:20:12,211 --> 00:20:15,323
Sure.
314
00:20:15,347 --> 00:20:16,892
Sorry, Mrs. Danford.
315
00:20:16,916 --> 00:20:18,009
That's all right.
316
00:20:26,225 --> 00:20:29,371
Mr. Mannix, phone call for you.
317
00:20:29,395 --> 00:20:30,454
Thank you.
318
00:20:32,732 --> 00:20:33,709
Hello.
319
00:20:33,733 --> 00:20:34,710
Oh, yeah, Peggy.
320
00:20:34,734 --> 00:20:36,712
I just got word on Belle Hogan.
321
00:20:36,736 --> 00:20:38,413
She's working the
Hill Street bazaar
322
00:20:38,437 --> 00:20:40,082
under the name of Madame Ondine.
323
00:20:40,106 --> 00:20:43,318
Well, at least she's
kept the same first name.
324
00:20:43,342 --> 00:20:46,421
This time she has a
fortune-telling setup.
325
00:20:46,445 --> 00:20:50,358
Maybe she can tell me
where to find Hank Varsey.
326
00:20:50,382 --> 00:20:51,727
Mmm.
327
00:20:51,751 --> 00:20:53,795
Oh, and Joe...
328
00:20:53,819 --> 00:20:55,163
There's something else.
329
00:20:55,187 --> 00:20:57,165
What's that?
330
00:20:57,189 --> 00:20:59,401
While I was getting a
lead on Belle Hogan,
331
00:20:59,425 --> 00:21:01,536
I had the funny feeling
I was being followed.
332
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,872
You see anyone?
333
00:21:03,896 --> 00:21:06,074
No, it was just a feeling.
334
00:21:06,098 --> 00:21:07,309
As though I was being watched
335
00:21:07,333 --> 00:21:09,711
by someone who really
knew his job, a professional.
336
00:21:09,735 --> 00:21:12,814
Okay, Peggy, you
stick close to the office.
337
00:21:12,838 --> 00:21:13,783
I'll phone you later.
338
00:21:13,807 --> 00:21:15,117
Where are you going?
339
00:21:15,141 --> 00:21:17,975
To look into a crystal ball.
340
00:22:08,327 --> 00:22:09,420
Hello?
341
00:22:16,001 --> 00:22:17,799
Anybody home?
342
00:22:20,973 --> 00:22:22,651
Out!
343
00:22:22,675 --> 00:22:23,718
You're not supposed
344
00:22:23,742 --> 00:22:24,986
to be here till Tuesday.
345
00:22:25,010 --> 00:22:26,188
I'm not?
346
00:22:26,212 --> 00:22:28,156
Tuesday.
347
00:22:28,180 --> 00:22:30,959
My crystal ball is never wrong,
348
00:22:30,983 --> 00:22:32,661
and it said that's
when you're coming
349
00:22:32,685 --> 00:22:35,096
to turn off my electricity.
350
00:22:35,120 --> 00:22:38,454
I'm afraid your crystal
ball is a little fast.
351
00:22:40,292 --> 00:22:41,469
You're a customer?
352
00:22:41,493 --> 00:22:43,271
You might say that.
353
00:22:43,295 --> 00:22:45,207
Oh, well...
354
00:22:45,231 --> 00:22:48,343
Step right this way, sir.
355
00:22:48,367 --> 00:22:52,327
You've come to the fastest
fortune teller in the West.
356
00:22:54,707 --> 00:22:57,419
Now, what would you...
357
00:22:57,443 --> 00:22:59,921
What would you like to know?
358
00:22:59,945 --> 00:23:02,724
Someone's address.
359
00:23:02,748 --> 00:23:04,359
This someone got a name?
360
00:23:04,383 --> 00:23:06,147
Hank Varsey.
361
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:08,997
Are you a cop?
362
00:23:09,021 --> 00:23:10,131
Private.
363
00:23:10,155 --> 00:23:13,201
My crystal ball
don't work for cops,
364
00:23:13,225 --> 00:23:15,387
private or otherwise.
365
00:23:17,296 --> 00:23:19,322
How much would it
take to get it started?
366
00:23:23,936 --> 00:23:26,481
Ah.
367
00:23:26,505 --> 00:23:28,850
I see some lucky numbers.
368
00:23:28,874 --> 00:23:31,686
I see the number 5.
369
00:23:31,710 --> 00:23:32,871
What do you see?
370
00:23:34,246 --> 00:23:35,680
Nothing.
371
00:23:36,916 --> 00:23:38,976
I see the number 10.
372
00:23:42,154 --> 00:23:43,598
Aha!
373
00:23:43,622 --> 00:23:49,391
And now, now I see the
number 2 and the number 0.
374
00:23:52,398 --> 00:23:54,109
Okay.
375
00:23:54,133 --> 00:23:56,611
I ain't seen Hank or
his crowd in years.
376
00:23:56,635 --> 00:23:59,080
I got no idea where they are.
377
00:23:59,104 --> 00:24:00,348
His crowd?
378
00:24:00,372 --> 00:24:03,618
Well, you know, that
creep he hung around with,
379
00:24:03,642 --> 00:24:05,453
that Roy Benson.
380
00:24:07,379 --> 00:24:09,858
Losers, both of them.
381
00:24:09,882 --> 00:24:10,926
Yeah.
382
00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:13,828
Oh, and those two
girls they brought me.
383
00:24:13,852 --> 00:24:15,063
Two?
384
00:24:15,087 --> 00:24:16,231
Yeah.
385
00:24:16,255 --> 00:24:18,500
Laura something.
386
00:24:18,524 --> 00:24:21,836
A real doll.
387
00:24:21,860 --> 00:24:24,706
What about the other girl?
388
00:24:24,730 --> 00:24:29,711
Dark-haired, cute...
389
00:24:29,735 --> 00:24:33,882
They both could have
passed for movie stars.
390
00:24:33,906 --> 00:24:36,284
Yeah, what was her
name, the second girl?
391
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:39,754
Oh, I can't think.
392
00:24:39,778 --> 00:24:41,189
They roomed together.
393
00:24:41,213 --> 00:24:44,359
They hit it off real great.
394
00:24:44,383 --> 00:24:46,227
Bobby.
395
00:24:46,251 --> 00:24:49,197
No, that wasn't it.
396
00:24:49,221 --> 00:24:50,465
Brooke.
397
00:24:50,489 --> 00:24:52,200
Brooke something.
398
00:24:52,224 --> 00:24:55,170
Oh, I could have made a
fortune off the two of them.
399
00:24:55,194 --> 00:24:56,805
What happened?
400
00:24:56,829 --> 00:24:59,607
It all fell apart.
401
00:24:59,631 --> 00:25:02,777
First this Laura kid disappears.
402
00:25:02,801 --> 00:25:06,181
Then two days later,
Brooke was gone.
403
00:25:06,205 --> 00:25:08,149
She took all her
clothes and everything.
404
00:25:08,173 --> 00:25:11,486
I haven't seen hide nor hair
of either one of them since.
405
00:25:11,510 --> 00:25:13,254
Are you sure about that?
406
00:25:13,278 --> 00:25:15,790
Positive.
407
00:25:15,814 --> 00:25:20,662
And that goes for Var...
what is it? Varsey, too.
408
00:25:22,821 --> 00:25:26,034
He thought he was
such a big ladies' man.
409
00:25:26,058 --> 00:25:31,639
When his Laura left,
he just went to pieces.
410
00:25:31,663 --> 00:25:37,679
Last I seen of him, he was
hustling free drinks downtown.
411
00:25:37,703 --> 00:25:39,814
Listen.
412
00:25:39,838 --> 00:25:40,783
Mister...
413
00:25:40,807 --> 00:25:42,317
No offense.
414
00:25:42,341 --> 00:25:44,310
But you've got your
20 bucks' worth.
415
00:25:45,911 --> 00:25:49,439
Do you have any idea why
anyone would kill Roy Benson?
416
00:25:51,350 --> 00:25:52,527
When did that happen?
417
00:25:52,551 --> 00:25:53,561
Last night.
418
00:25:53,585 --> 00:25:56,398
Well, what's that
got to do with me?
419
00:25:56,422 --> 00:25:59,234
I think it's got something
to do with Hank Varsey.
420
00:25:59,258 --> 00:26:00,902
That's why I want
to track him down.
421
00:26:00,926 --> 00:26:03,671
Well, I'm sorry,
I can't help you.
422
00:26:03,695 --> 00:26:05,607
I told you, they
came and they went,
423
00:26:05,631 --> 00:26:07,876
and I never saw
any of them again.
424
00:26:07,900 --> 00:26:12,247
What did this "Brooke
something" look like?
425
00:26:13,972 --> 00:26:20,021
Like I said, dark-haired,
kind of, you know...
426
00:26:51,110 --> 00:26:52,353
Yes, sir?
427
00:26:52,377 --> 00:26:54,222
Are Mr. Danford
or Mr. Edmonds in?
428
00:26:54,246 --> 00:26:55,356
No, sir, they're out.
429
00:26:55,380 --> 00:26:57,025
Good. I'll talk to Mrs. Danford.
430
00:26:57,049 --> 00:26:58,726
She's on the terrace,
sir, but I'm not sure...
431
00:26:58,750 --> 00:26:59,727
That's quite all right.
432
00:26:59,751 --> 00:27:00,912
I'm expected.
433
00:27:04,256 --> 00:27:05,900
Joe!
434
00:27:05,924 --> 00:27:07,483
What are you doing here?
435
00:27:09,461 --> 00:27:10,939
Did something happen?
436
00:27:10,963 --> 00:27:12,591
Belle Hogan was just murdered.
437
00:27:14,233 --> 00:27:15,257
Murdered?
438
00:27:18,637 --> 00:27:20,315
Why do you look at me like that?
439
00:27:20,339 --> 00:27:25,987
Hank Varsey is using me as
a bird dog, and I don't like it.
440
00:27:26,011 --> 00:27:28,011
I want to know everything
you've been holding back.
441
00:27:29,715 --> 00:27:31,726
Holding back?
442
00:27:31,750 --> 00:27:34,562
Who's Brooke?
443
00:27:34,586 --> 00:27:35,997
I don't know.
444
00:27:36,021 --> 00:27:37,665
Well, then let's get
you reacquainted.
445
00:27:37,689 --> 00:27:39,300
She was your roommate,
446
00:27:39,324 --> 00:27:42,294
the party girl who also used
Belle Hogan to set up her dates.
447
00:27:45,430 --> 00:27:46,474
All right.
448
00:27:46,498 --> 00:27:48,543
But Brooke had
absolutely nothing to do
449
00:27:48,567 --> 00:27:49,911
with these murders
or the blackmail.
450
00:27:49,935 --> 00:27:51,012
What makes you so sure?
451
00:27:51,036 --> 00:27:52,213
I know her.
452
00:27:52,237 --> 00:27:53,781
Brooke was the
closest friend I ever had.
453
00:27:53,805 --> 00:27:55,583
She could never be
involved in anything like this.
454
00:27:55,607 --> 00:27:58,486
Where can I find her?
455
00:27:58,510 --> 00:28:01,036
Joe, please, don't
ask me to do that.
456
00:28:03,949 --> 00:28:05,178
Then you do know.
457
00:28:10,222 --> 00:28:11,349
Yes.
458
00:28:12,891 --> 00:28:14,869
But I can't tell you
anything about her.
459
00:28:14,893 --> 00:28:16,137
She mustn't be involved.
460
00:28:16,161 --> 00:28:18,426
What makes her so special?
461
00:28:20,199 --> 00:28:22,010
Please, Joe, leave
Brooke out of this.
462
00:28:22,034 --> 00:28:23,378
She has a good life now.
463
00:28:23,402 --> 00:28:24,712
For her, the past is dead.
464
00:28:24,736 --> 00:28:26,581
With Roy Benson
and Belle Hogan gone,
465
00:28:26,605 --> 00:28:28,316
she could be the last
link to Hank Varsey.
466
00:28:28,340 --> 00:28:29,317
I can't!
467
00:28:29,341 --> 00:28:30,852
Now look, her life is in danger.
468
00:28:30,876 --> 00:28:32,120
She's got to know
what's going on.
469
00:28:32,144 --> 00:28:33,621
But her husband might find out!
470
00:28:33,645 --> 00:28:35,190
I'll do everything I
can to protect her.
471
00:28:35,214 --> 00:28:36,214
- But...
- Laura!
472
00:28:38,183 --> 00:28:40,277
It could save her life.
473
00:28:44,089 --> 00:28:47,068
Her name was Brooke Maxwell.
474
00:28:47,092 --> 00:28:48,770
Her married name is Cornell.
475
00:28:48,794 --> 00:28:50,854
They live in Malibu
on Sea Breeze Road.
476
00:28:52,598 --> 00:28:54,209
Laura?
477
00:28:54,233 --> 00:28:55,243
Laura!
478
00:28:55,267 --> 00:28:57,429
Oh, there's my lady.
479
00:28:59,571 --> 00:29:01,516
And Mr. Mannix, how
good to see you again.
480
00:29:01,540 --> 00:29:02,817
Mr. Danford.
481
00:29:02,841 --> 00:29:05,186
And it seems I lost a
cufflink the other night.
482
00:29:05,210 --> 00:29:06,821
Your wife found it for me.
483
00:29:06,845 --> 00:29:07,922
I was just leaving.
484
00:29:07,946 --> 00:29:09,924
No, no, this is a
time for celebration.
485
00:29:09,948 --> 00:29:12,060
The party's just given me
its official endorsement.
486
00:29:12,084 --> 00:29:13,595
Oh, Arthur!
487
00:29:13,619 --> 00:29:15,230
Oh, I'm so happy for you!
488
00:29:15,254 --> 00:29:16,631
Please stay, Mr. Mannix.
489
00:29:16,655 --> 00:29:18,399
Barney, break out a
bottle of Champagne.
490
00:29:18,423 --> 00:29:22,203
Uh, thanks anyway, but
I've really got to get going.
491
00:29:22,227 --> 00:29:23,371
Congratulations.
492
00:29:23,395 --> 00:29:26,107
Thanks again, Mrs. Danford.
493
00:29:26,131 --> 00:29:27,360
Well, tell me all about it.
494
00:29:28,734 --> 00:29:30,545
I told you how I felt, Joe.
495
00:29:30,569 --> 00:29:32,747
You've got it all wrong.
496
00:29:32,771 --> 00:29:34,782
This campaign means more to me
497
00:29:34,806 --> 00:29:36,417
than anything I've
ever worked on.
498
00:29:36,441 --> 00:29:38,119
We're a winning team here.
499
00:29:38,143 --> 00:29:40,421
This isn't the Super Bowl.
500
00:29:40,445 --> 00:29:43,745
I'd appreciate it if you
didn't come here again.
501
00:29:46,118 --> 00:29:47,916
I hope the winning
is worth it, Barney.
502
00:29:56,061 --> 00:29:57,438
Hi, Joe.
503
00:29:57,462 --> 00:29:58,439
Peggy.
504
00:29:58,463 --> 00:29:59,540
Where have you been?
505
00:29:59,564 --> 00:30:01,809
Did you check out that
Malibu address, the Cornells?
506
00:30:01,833 --> 00:30:05,079
I did, and you've
got official company.
507
00:30:05,103 --> 00:30:07,382
Hello, Adam.
508
00:30:07,406 --> 00:30:08,716
Hello, Joe.
509
00:30:08,740 --> 00:30:10,351
What brings you
here this time of day?
510
00:30:10,375 --> 00:30:12,387
You know why I'm here.
511
00:30:12,411 --> 00:30:16,257
I just left a fortune teller
who ran out of a future.
512
00:30:16,281 --> 00:30:19,794
Madame Ondine,
alias Belle Hogan.
513
00:30:19,818 --> 00:30:22,897
And guess what we
found on her crystal ball?
514
00:30:22,921 --> 00:30:24,198
My fingerprints?
515
00:30:24,222 --> 00:30:25,300
Yeah.
516
00:30:25,324 --> 00:30:27,068
You think it's trying to
tell me something, Joe?
517
00:30:27,092 --> 00:30:28,870
I called your department
the minute she was hit.
518
00:30:28,894 --> 00:30:30,538
Yeah, well, you should
have left your name.
519
00:30:30,562 --> 00:30:32,307
- Now listen, before there's...
- Adam, don't ask me.
520
00:30:32,331 --> 00:30:33,975
I've got to know
who your client is.
521
00:30:33,999 --> 00:30:35,376
I can't tell you that, Adam.
522
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:36,711
Why don't you settle for the guy
523
00:30:36,735 --> 00:30:38,346
who's behind these
deaths, Hank Varsey?
524
00:30:38,370 --> 00:30:40,114
Oh, yeah, yeah, Varsey.
525
00:30:40,138 --> 00:30:41,549
Well, we checked
him out all right.
526
00:30:41,573 --> 00:30:42,418
He's got an alibi.
527
00:30:42,442 --> 00:30:43,785
It won't stand up.
528
00:30:43,809 --> 00:30:44,786
Huh.
529
00:30:44,810 --> 00:30:45,787
It's airtight.
530
00:30:45,811 --> 00:30:46,988
Are you sure?
531
00:30:47,012 --> 00:30:49,357
Fairly sure.
532
00:30:49,381 --> 00:30:51,475
He's been dead for five years.
533
00:31:56,248 --> 00:31:58,259
Mrs. Cornell?
534
00:31:58,283 --> 00:31:59,394
Hi.
535
00:31:59,418 --> 00:32:00,595
If you're Fluffy the Clown,
536
00:32:00,619 --> 00:32:03,231
you can change your
costume right in that room.
537
00:32:03,255 --> 00:32:04,332
Oh, and you better hurry,
538
00:32:04,356 --> 00:32:06,234
because the kids will be
here directly from school.
539
00:32:06,258 --> 00:32:08,269
I'm afraid I'm not Fluffy.
540
00:32:08,293 --> 00:32:09,270
Oh.
541
00:32:09,294 --> 00:32:10,805
My name is Joe Mannix.
542
00:32:10,829 --> 00:32:13,541
Well, you must have
the wrong address.
543
00:32:13,565 --> 00:32:16,467
Oh, but while you're here, would
you mind handing me that tape?
544
00:32:21,573 --> 00:32:22,418
There you are.
545
00:32:22,442 --> 00:32:25,887
Thanks.
546
00:32:25,911 --> 00:32:26,855
There.
547
00:32:26,879 --> 00:32:28,923
Do you like it?
548
00:32:28,947 --> 00:32:30,324
Very, very nice.
549
00:32:30,348 --> 00:32:32,326
Now you just tell me
who you're looking for
550
00:32:32,350 --> 00:32:34,012
and I'll steer you
to the right house.
551
00:32:35,587 --> 00:32:37,632
I am at the right
house, Mrs. Cornell.
552
00:32:37,656 --> 00:32:39,454
Laura Rand told me about you.
553
00:32:41,827 --> 00:32:44,023
I'm a private investigator.
554
00:32:50,969 --> 00:32:53,414
She really didn't want
to give me your name.
555
00:32:53,438 --> 00:32:59,053
But you have my word that no
one else will know why I came here.
556
00:32:59,077 --> 00:33:01,989
There's been some mistake.
557
00:33:02,013 --> 00:33:03,491
This is an emergency.
558
00:33:03,515 --> 00:33:05,626
Otherwise I wouldn't have come.
559
00:33:05,650 --> 00:33:07,195
Someone is blackmailing Laura.
560
00:33:07,219 --> 00:33:11,179
They've already killed Roy
Benson and Belle Hogan.
561
00:33:14,659 --> 00:33:17,038
I don't want to hear any more.
562
00:33:17,062 --> 00:33:19,407
All I want from you is a name.
563
00:33:19,431 --> 00:33:20,641
Any name you can remember
564
00:33:20,665 --> 00:33:23,464
from that time that you
and Laura roomed together.
565
00:33:26,705 --> 00:33:28,749
That was so long ago.
566
00:33:28,773 --> 00:33:32,353
There's got to be
someone you remember.
567
00:33:32,377 --> 00:33:35,756
Someone you might
have accidentally told
568
00:33:35,780 --> 00:33:37,078
about Laura's past?
569
00:33:38,683 --> 00:33:40,695
I never told anyone about Laura.
570
00:33:40,719 --> 00:33:42,830
You've got to believe me.
571
00:33:42,854 --> 00:33:46,601
Please, look, this is my
daughter's eighth birthday.
572
00:33:46,625 --> 00:33:48,669
The children will
be coming here.
573
00:33:48,693 --> 00:33:51,288
I swear, I don't know
anything or anyone.
574
00:33:53,031 --> 00:33:55,076
All right, Mrs. Cornell.
575
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:57,211
I'm sorry if I interrupted.
576
00:33:57,235 --> 00:33:58,430
I won't bother you again.
577
00:34:05,877 --> 00:34:09,780
I've got a feeling your
daughter's a very lucky girl.
578
00:35:25,991 --> 00:35:27,619
Hold it! Hold it right there!
579
00:35:30,128 --> 00:35:31,839
All right, Mrs. Cornell.
580
00:35:31,863 --> 00:35:33,855
Call the police.
581
00:36:08,099 --> 00:36:10,411
His name was Carl Sampson.
582
00:36:10,435 --> 00:36:15,082
And he's got a police record
dating back about 20 years.
583
00:36:15,106 --> 00:36:16,517
Anything else?
584
00:36:16,541 --> 00:36:18,686
Yeah, ballistics confirmed
it was his gun that killed
585
00:36:18,710 --> 00:36:20,354
Roy Benson and Belle Hogan.
586
00:36:20,378 --> 00:36:21,722
No mistake?
587
00:36:21,746 --> 00:36:23,157
No, he's strictly
a gun for hire.
588
00:36:23,181 --> 00:36:24,992
Matter of fact, we've
had a warrant out on him
589
00:36:25,016 --> 00:36:26,360
since last year on
another murder case.
590
00:36:26,384 --> 00:36:28,295
Will somebody tell me why it
is I always get ham and cheese
591
00:36:28,319 --> 00:36:30,831
when I order pastrami?
592
00:36:30,855 --> 00:36:34,168
How come you haven't been
able to get your hands on him?
593
00:36:34,192 --> 00:36:35,503
Well, he slipped
out of California
594
00:36:35,527 --> 00:36:37,505
and holed up in Hawaii.
595
00:36:37,529 --> 00:36:40,074
Hawaii?
596
00:36:40,098 --> 00:36:43,444
Yeah, he finally got work
on the island of Oahu.
597
00:36:43,468 --> 00:36:44,779
Doing what?
598
00:36:44,803 --> 00:36:50,251
Well, he was a driver for...
Danford Shipbuilding Company.
599
00:36:50,275 --> 00:36:53,154
Ever hear of it?
600
00:36:53,178 --> 00:36:55,977
Yeah, I've, uh... heard of it.
601
00:37:00,985 --> 00:37:01,962
Mrs. Danford in?
602
00:37:01,986 --> 00:37:03,898
No, sir, she's gone for the day.
603
00:37:03,922 --> 00:37:05,599
Good. It's a beautiful
afternoon to be out.
604
00:37:05,623 --> 00:37:06,801
Where's Mr. Danford?
605
00:37:06,825 --> 00:37:10,004
In the study, but he left
orders he's not to be disturbed.
606
00:37:10,028 --> 00:37:12,554
Well, it just isn't his day.
607
00:37:24,676 --> 00:37:26,420
Well, Mr. Mannix.
608
00:37:26,444 --> 00:37:28,255
Don't tell me you
lost something again.
609
00:37:28,279 --> 00:37:29,557
Just my good sense.
610
00:37:29,581 --> 00:37:31,892
Well, now, what does that mean?
611
00:37:31,916 --> 00:37:33,661
Ambition is fine, Danford.
612
00:37:33,685 --> 00:37:36,163
But not when it takes
second place to murder.
613
00:37:36,187 --> 00:37:37,698
Murder?
614
00:37:37,722 --> 00:37:40,000
What are you talking about?
615
00:37:40,024 --> 00:37:42,870
I'm talking about Roy Benson
and Belle Hogan, who are dead.
616
00:37:42,894 --> 00:37:45,039
And Brooke Maxwell, who almost
died because you were afraid
617
00:37:45,063 --> 00:37:46,656
they could damage
you politically.
618
00:37:48,199 --> 00:37:49,410
I've never heard
of these people.
619
00:37:49,434 --> 00:37:53,047
Then try Carl Sampson,
the killer you hired
620
00:37:53,071 --> 00:37:54,749
to destroy all the
links to the past
621
00:37:54,773 --> 00:37:57,051
so that you'd have a clear
road to the governor's mansion.
622
00:37:57,075 --> 00:37:58,953
Mr. Mannix, you're
making allegations
623
00:37:58,977 --> 00:38:00,254
that you can't prove,
624
00:38:00,278 --> 00:38:02,523
and which I certainly don't
have to stand here and take.
625
00:38:02,547 --> 00:38:04,191
Now please get out.
626
00:38:04,215 --> 00:38:06,582
Are you telling me you
don't know this man?
627
00:38:13,358 --> 00:38:14,702
That's right, I've
never seen him.
628
00:38:14,726 --> 00:38:17,438
For over a year, he
worked in your shipyard
629
00:38:17,462 --> 00:38:18,623
as a driver.
630
00:38:22,467 --> 00:38:24,779
Mr. Mannix, I own
several shipyards,
631
00:38:24,803 --> 00:38:26,914
and I employ well
over 5,000 people.
632
00:38:26,938 --> 00:38:29,517
Obviously I can't be expected to
know the names or even the faces
633
00:38:29,541 --> 00:38:30,951
of all my employees.
634
00:38:30,975 --> 00:38:32,586
Maybe this man did work for me.
635
00:38:32,610 --> 00:38:33,821
If you're searching for him,
636
00:38:33,845 --> 00:38:36,791
I suggest you contact
my director of personnel.
637
00:38:36,815 --> 00:38:38,592
For that matter, maybe
my wife could help you.
638
00:38:38,616 --> 00:38:40,394
Your wife?
639
00:38:40,418 --> 00:38:43,397
Yes, Laura's been
a staunch supporter
640
00:38:43,421 --> 00:38:44,999
of minority hiring practices,
641
00:38:45,023 --> 00:38:47,067
so for the past several
years, she's been, oh...
642
00:38:47,091 --> 00:38:49,503
unofficially supervising all
our employment programs.
643
00:38:49,527 --> 00:38:52,740
And Mrs. Danford would
know Carl Sampson?
644
00:38:52,764 --> 00:38:55,943
She might.
645
00:38:55,967 --> 00:38:58,746
Is this the man you
suspect of being a murderer?
646
00:38:58,770 --> 00:39:00,548
Where is your wife, Mr. Danford?
647
00:39:00,572 --> 00:39:04,118
She left a little while ago to
visit a child care day center.
648
00:39:04,142 --> 00:39:05,986
Then she was going to
our California shipyard
649
00:39:06,010 --> 00:39:07,454
to christen a hospital ship.
650
00:39:07,478 --> 00:39:09,390
Barney's idea, you know.
651
00:39:09,414 --> 00:39:11,592
Sort of to get her in
the swing of things
652
00:39:11,616 --> 00:39:12,760
for the coming campaign.
653
00:39:12,784 --> 00:39:14,028
Where would she be right now?
654
00:39:14,052 --> 00:39:15,918
Well...
655
00:39:18,623 --> 00:39:21,616
According to the schedule,
still at the Windale Child Center.
656
00:39:24,162 --> 00:39:26,340
Mannix!
657
00:39:26,364 --> 00:39:27,608
I'm going with you.
658
00:39:27,632 --> 00:39:28,609
Now look...
659
00:39:28,633 --> 00:39:30,795
If my wife's in trouble,
I want to be there.
660
00:39:54,425 --> 00:39:56,370
Laura.
661
00:39:56,394 --> 00:39:58,973
Hi, Barney.
662
00:39:58,997 --> 00:40:01,842
Are you sure this is the place?
663
00:40:01,866 --> 00:40:04,111
Well, we're a little
early, that's all.
664
00:40:04,135 --> 00:40:06,513
It looks so deserted.
665
00:40:06,537 --> 00:40:07,915
Well, come on inside.
666
00:40:07,939 --> 00:40:10,841
Let's see if we can find someone
to direct us to the ceremony.
667
00:40:24,389 --> 00:40:26,300
Is she there?
668
00:40:26,324 --> 00:40:27,534
She didn't show up.
669
00:40:27,558 --> 00:40:30,037
Somebody called
and canceled her visit.
670
00:40:30,061 --> 00:40:34,508
Uh, you said next stop on
her schedule was the shipyard?
671
00:40:34,532 --> 00:40:39,246
Yes, but the launching isn't
scheduled for another two hours.
672
00:40:39,270 --> 00:40:41,171
We'd better check it out anyway.
673
00:40:54,585 --> 00:40:56,178
Barney?
674
00:40:58,356 --> 00:41:00,100
Did you find anyone?
675
00:41:00,124 --> 00:41:02,469
Not a soul.
676
00:41:02,493 --> 00:41:05,039
Obviously this is the
wrong time and place.
677
00:41:05,063 --> 00:41:07,574
I can't believe it.
678
00:41:07,598 --> 00:41:10,210
Precise, punctual Barney
Edmonds making a mistake.
679
00:41:10,234 --> 00:41:12,947
I don't make many
slip-ups, do I?
680
00:41:12,971 --> 00:41:15,749
As far as I know,
this is a first.
681
00:41:15,773 --> 00:41:17,484
Arthur won't believe it either.
682
00:41:17,508 --> 00:41:20,120
That's what I'm counting on.
683
00:41:20,144 --> 00:41:21,989
What?
684
00:41:22,013 --> 00:41:26,193
That's why I brought
you here, Laura.
685
00:41:26,217 --> 00:41:27,795
I'm going to have to kill you.
686
00:41:27,819 --> 00:41:29,563
Kill me?
687
00:41:29,587 --> 00:41:34,802
You're a liability, the only
flaw in a beautiful dream.
688
00:41:34,826 --> 00:41:36,971
You see, I believe
in your husband.
689
00:41:36,995 --> 00:41:39,239
I've studied him.
690
00:41:39,263 --> 00:41:41,375
I've seen the way
crowds respond to him,
691
00:41:41,399 --> 00:41:43,110
the excitement he generates.
692
00:41:43,134 --> 00:41:44,812
With the right guidance,
693
00:41:44,836 --> 00:41:46,480
he doesn't have to
stop at being governor.
694
00:41:46,504 --> 00:41:49,565
Someday he could
win all the marbles.
695
00:41:53,144 --> 00:41:54,121
Barney, please.
696
00:41:54,145 --> 00:41:55,122
Please, I'm his wife.
697
00:41:55,146 --> 00:41:56,357
I wouldn't hurt his chances.
698
00:41:56,381 --> 00:41:59,408
You and your past would destroy
him before he even gets started.
699
00:42:00,918 --> 00:42:02,863
You sent the letter in Hawaii.
700
00:42:02,887 --> 00:42:06,367
The first link in the chain
to wipe out your past.
701
00:42:06,391 --> 00:42:10,004
The last was finding a
man willing to kill for a price.
702
00:42:10,028 --> 00:42:13,707
Carl Sampson, the ex-convict
you hired for the company
703
00:42:13,731 --> 00:42:16,276
under your
rehabilitation program.
704
00:42:16,300 --> 00:42:17,911
Well, you should
have investigated him
705
00:42:17,935 --> 00:42:19,446
more closely, Laura.
706
00:42:19,470 --> 00:42:22,616
The way I investigated you
and your little group of friends.
707
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:23,751
Barney, please.
708
00:42:23,775 --> 00:42:24,885
It happened so long ago.
709
00:42:24,909 --> 00:42:25,986
It happened!
710
00:42:26,010 --> 00:42:27,721
And it has to be erased,
711
00:42:27,745 --> 00:42:29,456
right down to the
last blemish, you!
712
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,210
Now move!
713
00:42:41,092 --> 00:42:43,337
Keep moving.
714
00:42:43,361 --> 00:42:47,474
There's a door out there
that leads onto the pier.
715
00:42:47,498 --> 00:42:48,876
If you shoot me, they'll know.
716
00:42:48,900 --> 00:42:50,310
There'll be an investigation.
717
00:42:50,334 --> 00:42:52,980
Not if it was an accident.
718
00:42:53,004 --> 00:42:56,316
That's why we came
in separate cars.
719
00:42:56,340 --> 00:42:59,219
You arrived first, took
a stroll on the dock,
720
00:42:59,243 --> 00:43:03,257
slipped, hit your
head, fell into the water.
721
00:43:03,281 --> 00:43:05,125
By the time I arrived
and dragged you out,
722
00:43:05,149 --> 00:43:06,760
you were already dead.
723
00:43:06,784 --> 00:43:08,462
It's a tragedy,
724
00:43:08,486 --> 00:43:11,098
but think of all the sympathy
it'll generate for Arthur.
725
00:43:11,122 --> 00:43:13,067
Barney... Barney, I've
been a good wife to him.
726
00:43:13,091 --> 00:43:15,235
No one has to know.
727
00:43:15,259 --> 00:43:16,837
I'm sorry, Laura,
728
00:43:16,861 --> 00:43:19,006
it's just that when a man
is destined for greatness
729
00:43:19,030 --> 00:43:20,574
the way your husband is,
730
00:43:20,598 --> 00:43:22,726
certain sacrifices
have to be made.
731
00:43:35,413 --> 00:43:37,291
Hold it!
732
00:43:37,315 --> 00:43:38,908
That's Laura's car and Barney's.
733
00:43:41,152 --> 00:43:43,430
The launching's at the
other end of the shipyard.
734
00:43:43,454 --> 00:43:45,199
What are they doing there?
735
00:43:45,223 --> 00:43:46,316
Let's find out.
736
00:44:37,041 --> 00:44:38,352
Laura?
737
00:44:38,376 --> 00:44:40,554
Barney!
738
00:44:40,578 --> 00:44:42,523
Uh, look, why don't
you check up this way?
739
00:44:42,547 --> 00:44:43,590
I'll go around the other side.
740
00:44:43,614 --> 00:44:44,925
If you see anyone,
give a call, huh?
741
00:44:44,949 --> 00:44:45,973
You do the same.
742
00:45:47,511 --> 00:45:48,774
Barney!
743
00:45:50,548 --> 00:45:52,312
Keep back, Arthur!
744
00:45:54,051 --> 00:45:57,078
You've got to understand,
this is all for you.
745
00:45:59,257 --> 00:46:02,703
Let go of her, Barney.
746
00:46:02,727 --> 00:46:08,075
Barney, if you harm
her, if you kill her,
747
00:46:08,099 --> 00:46:11,278
you're going to
have to kill me too.
748
00:46:11,302 --> 00:46:13,013
Don't be a fool!
749
00:46:13,037 --> 00:46:14,448
She'll ruin you.
750
00:46:14,472 --> 00:46:16,416
She'll ruin everything.
751
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,353
You never knew what
she really was... a call girl!
752
00:46:19,377 --> 00:46:23,290
The voters would drop
you like you had the plague.
753
00:46:23,314 --> 00:46:26,526
Keep back, Arthur.
754
00:46:26,550 --> 00:46:28,295
Don't you understand?
755
00:46:28,319 --> 00:46:30,754
She has to die.
756
00:46:32,556 --> 00:46:35,002
Barney...
757
00:46:35,026 --> 00:46:37,137
You're going to
have to kill me first.
758
00:46:37,161 --> 00:46:39,790
When it's done,
you'll understand.
759
00:46:41,932 --> 00:46:44,378
We'll say it was an
assassin aiming for you...
760
00:46:44,402 --> 00:46:45,426
Barney!
761
00:47:58,976 --> 00:48:00,487
You invited me to that party
762
00:48:00,511 --> 00:48:02,022
knowing I'd get
involved, didn't you?
763
00:48:02,046 --> 00:48:05,859
You used me to bird-dog all the
people you wanted to get rid of.
764
00:48:05,883 --> 00:48:08,195
That was the game
plan, wasn't it, Barney?
765
00:48:08,219 --> 00:48:10,897
Yeah, well, in the old days
when I opened a hole for you,
766
00:48:10,921 --> 00:48:12,666
you always went through.
767
00:48:12,690 --> 00:48:14,784
Yeah, one question, Barney.
768
00:48:16,727 --> 00:48:18,038
Why?
769
00:48:18,062 --> 00:48:21,074
After 20 years
of backing losers,
770
00:48:21,098 --> 00:48:24,778
I knew gold when I saw it, and
Arthur Danford was solid gold.
771
00:48:24,802 --> 00:48:26,980
A 14-karat winner!
772
00:48:27,004 --> 00:48:28,014
And he was mine, Joe.
773
00:48:28,038 --> 00:48:29,549
I found him.
774
00:48:29,573 --> 00:48:32,652
I could have taken
him all the way.
775
00:48:32,676 --> 00:48:35,612
Governor, senator, right up
the steps of the White House.
776
00:48:37,782 --> 00:48:38,841
Let's go.
777
00:48:42,686 --> 00:48:44,765
Arthur.
778
00:48:44,789 --> 00:48:49,102
What he said, it's true.
779
00:48:49,126 --> 00:48:51,254
I know.
780
00:48:54,398 --> 00:48:59,446
When I asked you to marry me,
I wanted to know all about you.
781
00:48:59,470 --> 00:49:02,783
And when you found out?
782
00:49:02,807 --> 00:49:03,900
It didn't matter?
783
00:49:05,209 --> 00:49:06,871
It mattered.
784
00:49:09,346 --> 00:49:12,976
It mattered, but something
mattered even more.
785
00:49:15,486 --> 00:49:16,954
I loved you.
786
00:49:18,122 --> 00:49:21,024
That's never changed.
787
00:49:28,165 --> 00:49:29,690
Joe...
788
00:49:36,240 --> 00:49:37,984
You know something, Barney?
789
00:49:38,008 --> 00:49:40,187
You should have left
well enough alone.
790
00:49:40,211 --> 00:49:42,656
A lot different today.
791
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,650
You probably would have
made it just the way it was.
