Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,500 --> 00:00:03,500
I know where I was.
2
00:00:03,577 --> 00:00:05,909
I hired you to find Prentiss.
3
00:00:05,979 --> 00:00:07,776
I found him. Murdered.
4
00:00:08,148 --> 00:00:09,308
(Rockford)
Suicide!
5
00:00:09,383 --> 00:00:12,875
The gun was underneath
the drapes at least 15 feet
from the body.
6
00:00:12,953 --> 00:00:15,387
That gun was in the right hand
of the deceased.
7
00:00:15,455 --> 00:00:17,320
(Furlong)
I made you
a couple of promises.
8
00:00:17,391 --> 00:00:21,623
There's nothing
I'd hold you to.
Would you mind? I bruise easy.
9
00:00:21,828 --> 00:00:24,888
I was thinking of having
an affair with him.
I changed my mind.
10
00:00:24,965 --> 00:00:26,796
(Furlong)
But I want you down
at the station
11
00:00:26,867 --> 00:00:28,266
tomorrow morning at 10:00.
12
00:00:28,335 --> 00:00:31,771
And bring along that
good lawyer of yours.
You're gonna need him.
13
00:00:31,838 --> 00:00:32,896
Her.
14
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:35,569
[Telephone ringing]
15
00:00:37,144 --> 00:00:39,612
(Rockford on
answering machine)
This is Jim Rockford.
16
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,341
At the tone, leave your name
and message.
17
00:00:41,415 --> 00:00:42,473
I'll get back to you.
18
00:00:42,549 --> 00:00:43,516
[Beeps]
19
00:00:43,583 --> 00:00:45,710
(Morey)
It's Morey. Got a call
from Davis at the IRS.
20
00:00:45,786 --> 00:00:48,050
You were right.
They bounced your return.
Call me.
21
00:04:57,103 --> 00:05:00,971
Bungalow 14. His car is there.
There's a light on
in the room.
22
00:05:01,241 --> 00:05:03,573
I knocked on the door,
with no answer.
23
00:05:03,643 --> 00:05:06,942
Maybe he doesn't wanna answer.
Maybe he's got company.
24
00:05:07,013 --> 00:05:11,313
Sergeant, would he tell
his wife where he is
if he's got company?
25
00:05:11,384 --> 00:05:14,114
I think something's wrong
and you ought to check it out.
26
00:05:14,187 --> 00:05:17,020
I can't go in that room.
It'd be breaking and entering.
27
00:05:17,090 --> 00:05:19,388
We can't go in, either.
We don't have any authority.
28
00:05:19,459 --> 00:05:20,721
You can get it.
29
00:05:20,894 --> 00:05:23,055
Look, Sergeant, the man's wife
is really worried.
30
00:05:23,129 --> 00:05:26,223
He was supposed to call her
at 10:00 tonight
and he didn't.
31
00:05:26,299 --> 00:05:29,325
She rang his room for
an hour straight. No answer.
32
00:05:29,402 --> 00:05:31,563
Where's she live?
Pasadena.
33
00:05:31,972 --> 00:05:35,430
Pasadena.
That's just 45 minutes
on the freeway, tops.
34
00:05:35,508 --> 00:05:37,669
If she's so worried,
why didn't she
come here herself?
35
00:05:37,744 --> 00:05:39,371
She has the flu.
36
00:05:39,679 --> 00:05:42,842
Sergeant, she talked
to her husband this afternoon.
37
00:05:42,916 --> 00:05:45,407
He seemed very disturbed
about something.
38
00:05:46,953 --> 00:05:51,151
You know, we don't get
very many
private investigators...
39
00:05:51,224 --> 00:05:52,282
here in Bay City.
40
00:05:52,359 --> 00:05:55,487
Couple of bucks for
a piece paper, that don't buy
you nothing here.
41
00:05:55,562 --> 00:05:57,427
It's $275
42
00:05:57,497 --> 00:06:01,024
and $50 the last day of May
of every even numbered year.
43
00:06:01,101 --> 00:06:05,003
Now will you check the motel?
You're gonna have to do it
sooner or later.
44
00:06:05,071 --> 00:06:07,403
If I've to call up Mrs. Carr,
as upset as she is,
45
00:06:07,474 --> 00:06:11,035
she's gonna be on the phone
to everybody from your
Chief on down.
46
00:06:11,111 --> 00:06:12,339
If that doesn't work...
47
00:06:12,412 --> 00:06:14,903
I don't like being threatened.
I don't blame you.
48
00:06:14,981 --> 00:06:17,848
That kind of thing
ticks me off, too.
But that's Mrs. Carr for you.
49
00:06:17,917 --> 00:06:20,215
You should've seen
the number she pulled
in Santa Monica.
50
00:06:20,287 --> 00:06:21,811
That was just over
a traffic ticket.
51
00:06:21,888 --> 00:06:24,118
Ran in a superior court judge.
If you could...
52
00:06:24,190 --> 00:06:27,387
All right,
you made your point.
We'll take a look.
53
00:06:32,365 --> 00:06:35,857
Just how much money
you getting paid
for us doing your job for you?
54
00:06:35,935 --> 00:06:39,166
Well, the rates are
pretty much standardized.
55
00:06:41,207 --> 00:06:44,802
How much?
It's $200 a day,
plus expenses.
56
00:06:44,878 --> 00:06:46,368
But that's not day in
and day out.
57
00:06:46,446 --> 00:06:50,644
I mean, there's actually days,
weeks, I'm standing in
the Unemployment line.
58
00:06:51,584 --> 00:06:54,883
Hey, it'd save a lot of time
if I go along with you.
59
00:06:55,588 --> 00:06:57,886
You ride around much
with the cops in L. A?
60
00:06:57,957 --> 00:07:00,289
It depends on
the circumstances.
61
00:07:00,593 --> 00:07:03,255
Yeah. You're not riding
with us neither.
62
00:07:19,012 --> 00:07:22,140
(Larsen)
Hey, you, Rockford.
Lieutenant wants to see you.
63
00:07:32,192 --> 00:07:34,626
Jim. That means James.
64
00:07:34,994 --> 00:07:39,158
James Rockford,
Private Investigator.
Office in L.A.
65
00:07:39,799 --> 00:07:41,630
What are you doing
in Bay City?
66
00:07:41,701 --> 00:07:45,068
I explained all that
to the Sergeant...
Explain it to me.
67
00:07:45,138 --> 00:07:47,936
Now, what's your connection
with this Prentiss Carr?
68
00:07:48,007 --> 00:07:50,441
There's no connection.
I met him a couple of
years ago.
69
00:07:50,510 --> 00:07:52,535
I'm a friend of Mrs. Carr's.
70
00:07:53,279 --> 00:07:54,678
Good friend?
71
00:07:54,914 --> 00:07:57,246
Yeah. A good friend.
Look Lieutenant...
72
00:07:57,317 --> 00:08:00,844
So she hired you to check up
on her husband, right?
73
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,683
Yeah.
She was worried about him.
74
00:08:02,756 --> 00:08:04,246
Mrs. Carr was
worried about him.
75
00:08:04,324 --> 00:08:06,724
She would've come herself,
only she was sick.
76
00:08:06,793 --> 00:08:08,886
If she's so sick,
why isn't she home?
77
00:08:08,962 --> 00:08:10,486
She is.
No, she isn't.
78
00:08:10,563 --> 00:08:12,758
We've been trying to reach her
for the last hour.
79
00:08:12,832 --> 00:08:14,595
Why have you been
trying to reach her?
80
00:08:14,667 --> 00:08:17,465
She was right to be worried
about her husband.
81
00:08:17,537 --> 00:08:18,868
He's dead.
82
00:08:19,639 --> 00:08:21,266
Dead?
Yeah.
83
00:08:22,509 --> 00:08:25,444
Dead.
That that's hard to believe.
What happened?
84
00:08:25,512 --> 00:08:28,948
He committed suicide.
Suicide!
85
00:08:29,682 --> 00:08:31,877
You got something
says it wasn't suicide?
86
00:08:31,951 --> 00:08:35,648
What makes you
so sure it was?
What business is it of yours?
87
00:08:35,722 --> 00:08:38,384
Like I told you,
I'm a friend of the family.
88
00:08:38,525 --> 00:08:42,120
Oh, yeah, I forgot.
Well, it's no secret.
89
00:08:42,462 --> 00:08:43,793
The door was locked.
90
00:08:43,863 --> 00:08:46,559
No sign of a forced entry.
No sign of a struggle.
91
00:08:46,633 --> 00:08:49,067
That gun was in the right hand
of the deceased.
92
00:08:49,135 --> 00:08:52,104
And there were powder burns
on the wound in the belly.
93
00:08:52,172 --> 00:08:56,165
Wait a minute.
Now who'd commit suicide
with a shot to the belly?
94
00:08:56,743 --> 00:08:58,233
Prentiss Carr.
95
00:09:03,382 --> 00:09:05,350
(Rockford)
When you talked to Prentiss,
96
00:09:05,417 --> 00:09:08,147
did he say who he was
meeting in Bay City?
97
00:09:08,654 --> 00:09:13,250
No. He was vague
about the whole thing.
And disturbed.
98
00:09:14,126 --> 00:09:17,425
That's why I was so worried
when I couldn't reach him.
99
00:09:17,496 --> 00:09:20,488
Why I didn't want to go
down there myself.
100
00:09:20,766 --> 00:09:24,099
Did you see him?
Yeah. I saw him.
101
00:09:25,404 --> 00:09:28,601
Well?
Where were you tonight, Janet?
102
00:09:29,408 --> 00:09:30,500
Here.
103
00:09:33,345 --> 00:09:35,142
I asked you about Prentiss.
104
00:09:35,214 --> 00:09:38,615
I called here.
There was no answer.
105
00:09:41,487 --> 00:09:44,320
I went to an all-night
drug store
down on Orange Grove.
106
00:09:44,389 --> 00:09:46,687
I didn't have
anything to read.
107
00:09:47,426 --> 00:09:50,054
Get bored with
all the travel folders?
108
00:09:52,331 --> 00:09:55,232
You were gone at least
two hours that I know of.
109
00:09:55,300 --> 00:09:56,767
Maybe longer.
110
00:09:56,869 --> 00:10:00,361
I went through
the magazine racks. I always
go through the magazine racks.
111
00:10:00,439 --> 00:10:02,464
You should remember that.
112
00:10:03,709 --> 00:10:07,543
Look, I didn't hire you
to find out where I was.
I know where I was.
113
00:10:07,613 --> 00:10:09,808
I hired you to find Prentiss.
114
00:10:11,517 --> 00:10:12,916
I found him.
115
00:10:13,018 --> 00:10:14,178
[Sighing]
116
00:10:15,621 --> 00:10:17,282
He's dead, Janet.
117
00:10:20,459 --> 00:10:21,721
Murdered.
118
00:10:24,796 --> 00:10:26,058
[Whispering]
Prentiss?
119
00:10:28,233 --> 00:10:29,632
Prentiss.
120
00:10:31,570 --> 00:10:33,265
How did it happen?
121
00:10:34,873 --> 00:10:36,932
Who?
I don't know.
122
00:10:37,843 --> 00:10:39,868
I was hoping
you could tell me.
123
00:10:39,945 --> 00:10:42,539
You can't think that
I killed him.
124
00:10:42,614 --> 00:10:44,275
I haven't seen you
in four years.
125
00:10:44,349 --> 00:10:47,614
I don't know what's happened
to you, what's happened
to your marriage.
126
00:10:47,686 --> 00:10:49,153
I didn't kill Prentiss.
127
00:10:49,221 --> 00:10:51,985
Now that doesn't
make any sense.
I sent you there.
128
00:10:52,190 --> 00:10:54,283
None of it makes any sense.
129
00:10:54,526 --> 00:10:57,324
I found him, Janet.
He was shot.
130
00:10:57,396 --> 00:10:59,227
The gun wasn't anywhere
near his body.
131
00:10:59,298 --> 00:11:01,562
There's no question
it was murder.
132
00:11:01,633 --> 00:11:03,601
I asked the police to
go check the room,
133
00:11:03,669 --> 00:11:06,137
and I didn't tell them
that I'd been inside.
134
00:11:06,204 --> 00:11:09,002
They came back with
a verdict of suicide.
135
00:11:10,442 --> 00:11:13,377
I don't understand.
Neither do I.
136
00:11:15,414 --> 00:11:16,904
Did you call them on it?
137
00:11:16,982 --> 00:11:18,973
I wanted to
talk to you first.
138
00:11:19,451 --> 00:11:22,852
You see, the minute that
I make it murder,
two things happen.
139
00:11:23,522 --> 00:11:27,925
I make my client a suspect,
and I have to admit that
I was in that room.
140
00:11:30,329 --> 00:11:34,527
I don't care if I'm a suspect.
I didn't kill Prentiss.
141
00:11:34,666 --> 00:11:36,964
So you better tell the police
that you were in that room.
142
00:11:37,035 --> 00:11:39,595
Because if you don't, I will.
143
00:11:42,975 --> 00:11:44,442
Okay, I will.
144
00:11:44,810 --> 00:11:49,611
In the meantime,
when they contact you,
don't say anything about it.
145
00:11:50,649 --> 00:11:53,379
It's gonna be bad enough
coming from me.
146
00:11:55,954 --> 00:11:56,943
Jim?
147
00:11:58,657 --> 00:11:59,919
Don't go.
148
00:12:00,525 --> 00:12:03,961
I don't want to
be alone tonight. Please.
149
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,127
I can fix up the guest room.
150
00:12:12,037 --> 00:12:14,562
The cops'll be dropping by
any minute.
151
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,801
Believe me,
they wouldn't understand.
152
00:12:19,645 --> 00:12:23,581
And, Janet,
I'd get rid of
those travel folders.
153
00:12:24,349 --> 00:12:27,318
That's something else
they wouldn't understand.
154
00:12:27,386 --> 00:12:28,614
I'll see you tomorrow.
155
00:12:28,687 --> 00:12:31,986
After I've tried to explain
that false report I made.
156
00:12:38,330 --> 00:12:41,822
I'm sure the Lieutenant has
some simple,
reasonable explanation
157
00:12:41,900 --> 00:12:44,130
for our difference of opinion.
158
00:12:44,336 --> 00:12:45,997
You both know Mr. Rockford.
159
00:12:46,071 --> 00:12:47,129
Yes, sir, we've met.
160
00:12:47,205 --> 00:12:48,729
(Larsen)
We heard you were back.
161
00:12:48,807 --> 00:12:52,004
Mr. Rockford has brought
some very serious charges
against you two.
162
00:12:52,077 --> 00:12:54,841
I didn't make any charges.
I just gave you the facts.
163
00:12:54,913 --> 00:12:56,574
You came to your
own conclusions.
164
00:12:56,648 --> 00:12:58,513
My conclusion is this:
165
00:12:59,685 --> 00:13:02,586
Mr. Rockford has accused you
of obstructing justice...
166
00:13:02,654 --> 00:13:05,521
and tampering with evidence
in a capital crime.
167
00:13:05,590 --> 00:13:07,854
He claims Prentiss Carr
was murdered
168
00:13:07,926 --> 00:13:09,723
and you two rearranged things
169
00:13:09,795 --> 00:13:11,592
to make it look like suicide.
170
00:13:11,663 --> 00:13:14,257
That's a lie.
What are you talking about?
171
00:13:14,366 --> 00:13:18,769
I was in that room
before I came here last night.
The door was unlocked.
172
00:13:18,970 --> 00:13:21,905
The door was locked.
We had to get
the manager to let us in.
173
00:13:21,973 --> 00:13:23,634
There was a chair
knocked over.
174
00:13:23,709 --> 00:13:25,540
It looked like
whoever pulled the trigger
175
00:13:25,610 --> 00:13:27,441
must've panicked
and ran for the door.
176
00:13:27,512 --> 00:13:28,774
(Furlong)
No chair knocked over.
177
00:13:28,847 --> 00:13:30,872
(Larsen)
There was no sign of
a struggle at all.
178
00:13:30,949 --> 00:13:34,510
The gun was underneath
the drapes at least 15 feet
from the body.
179
00:13:34,586 --> 00:13:38,181
The gun was in his right hand.
Powder burns on the wound.
180
00:13:38,256 --> 00:13:42,158
All right, he was shot
at close range.
Did you run a paraffin test?
181
00:13:42,227 --> 00:13:44,627
We didn't need to.
We've got two eyes.
182
00:13:44,696 --> 00:13:47,597
The paraffin test
isn't conclusive,
Mr. Rockford.
183
00:13:47,666 --> 00:13:50,328
You know,
according to this statement,
184
00:13:50,769 --> 00:13:53,101
last night you said
you didn't enter the room.
185
00:13:53,171 --> 00:13:55,799
Last night I signed anything
they wanted me to sign.
186
00:13:55,874 --> 00:13:58,138
I didn't have
an unbiased witness around.
187
00:13:58,210 --> 00:13:59,837
You still don't.
188
00:14:00,879 --> 00:14:02,278
I'm biased.
189
00:14:03,482 --> 00:14:05,848
I've known both of these men
for a long time.
190
00:14:05,917 --> 00:14:09,375
Lt. Furlong, 18 years.
Medal of Valor winner.
191
00:14:10,055 --> 00:14:11,522
Coming up for retirement.
192
00:14:11,590 --> 00:14:13,751
Lars has been with us
12 years in August.
193
00:14:13,825 --> 00:14:16,521
They're good men
and they're good cops.
194
00:14:16,595 --> 00:14:17,789
You?
195
00:14:18,797 --> 00:14:21,231
I never saw you before
in my life.
196
00:14:21,299 --> 00:14:25,429
Now why would I come in here
with a story like that
if it wasn't true?
197
00:14:25,504 --> 00:14:27,335
What it boils down to is
198
00:14:27,405 --> 00:14:31,535
your word against the word of
two men I know and trust.
199
00:14:32,978 --> 00:14:37,540
Now, if I go ahead
and investigate
those allegations,
200
00:14:38,450 --> 00:14:41,578
you and I both know
we'll end up right back here
201
00:14:41,653 --> 00:14:43,450
in the same place
we are right now.
202
00:14:43,855 --> 00:14:45,220
A standoff.
203
00:14:45,357 --> 00:14:49,555
In the meantime, we'd get
something going that's bad
for Department morale,
204
00:14:49,628 --> 00:14:53,257
bad for public confidence,
bad all the way around.
205
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,132
Prentiss Carr
committed suicide.
206
00:14:59,271 --> 00:15:01,466
Your office is in L.A., right,
Mr. Rockford?
207
00:15:01,540 --> 00:15:03,872
My office is a trailer.
208
00:15:04,075 --> 00:15:05,906
At the moment,
it's parked in L.A.
209
00:15:05,977 --> 00:15:10,141
Yeah. Well, the next time
you feel like
a change of scenery
210
00:15:11,283 --> 00:15:13,911
don't come looking
for it in Bay City.
211
00:15:35,674 --> 00:15:37,369
[Police siren blaring]
212
00:15:59,464 --> 00:16:00,692
Get out.
213
00:16:04,302 --> 00:16:05,428
[Chuckles]
214
00:16:06,671 --> 00:16:09,970
You were following me.
I spotted you
when I left the station.
215
00:16:10,041 --> 00:16:13,033
I just didn't believe
you'd tail me in
that blue-and-white.
216
00:16:13,111 --> 00:16:15,944
You know, most cops use
unmarked cars, sedans,
217
00:16:16,014 --> 00:16:17,709
and something in
a neutral color.
218
00:16:17,782 --> 00:16:19,773
You gonna keep
working that mouth, or listen?
219
00:16:19,851 --> 00:16:20,977
I'm gonna listen.
220
00:16:21,052 --> 00:16:24,112
All right,
Chief put it to you his way
221
00:16:24,422 --> 00:16:27,721
I'm gonna put it to you mine.
Stay out of Bay City.
222
00:16:28,059 --> 00:16:30,323
You're making it
kind of hard for me,
Lieutenant.
223
00:16:30,395 --> 00:16:32,363
I can't stay out
until you let me leave.
224
00:16:32,430 --> 00:16:34,694
And I can't leave
as long as
you're leaning on me.
225
00:16:34,766 --> 00:16:36,825
(Furlong)
We're not leaning on you,
Rockford.
226
00:16:36,902 --> 00:16:39,871
Leaning means that
if you're stupid enough
to come back here,
227
00:16:39,938 --> 00:16:42,736
and we pull you over
for a traffic violation,
228
00:16:42,807 --> 00:16:46,436
you reach in for your ID,
we think you're going
for a gun.
229
00:16:47,045 --> 00:16:50,708
It's all over and too late
when we find out
we were wrong.
230
00:16:51,316 --> 00:16:52,840
That's leaning.
231
00:16:52,918 --> 00:16:54,476
You tried to burn us
with the Chief.
232
00:16:54,552 --> 00:16:56,247
I don't know why
and I don't care.
233
00:16:56,321 --> 00:17:00,451
Being a private investigator,
I guess you've got your
own creepy reasons.
234
00:17:00,525 --> 00:17:02,356
But I'm not gonna forget it.
235
00:17:02,427 --> 00:17:04,725
So if I see you coming
across that city line,
236
00:17:04,796 --> 00:17:07,230
I'm gonna come down
on you so hard
237
00:17:07,299 --> 00:17:10,029
you're gonna have to reach up
to put your shoes on.
238
00:17:10,101 --> 00:17:11,534
You got it?
239
00:17:11,603 --> 00:17:12,729
Got it.
240
00:17:13,238 --> 00:17:15,229
Get it out of here. Fast.
241
00:17:22,948 --> 00:17:24,540
[Birds chirping]
242
00:17:39,364 --> 00:17:40,797
Turn it off.
243
00:17:41,833 --> 00:17:46,236
If you've come to apologize
for last night,
I'm prepared to be generous.
244
00:17:47,505 --> 00:17:51,407
Is it that bad?
They didn't file charges
against you?
245
00:17:52,177 --> 00:17:54,304
No. They just ran me
out of town.
246
00:17:54,379 --> 00:17:56,813
Bay City has Prentiss
down as a suicide,
247
00:17:56,881 --> 00:17:58,212
and that's the way
it's gonna stay.
248
00:17:58,283 --> 00:18:00,251
I don't understand, why?
249
00:18:00,552 --> 00:18:03,282
They just didn't like
what I had to say.
250
00:18:03,588 --> 00:18:05,988
At least
you've cleared yourself.
251
00:18:06,257 --> 00:18:09,954
They can never claim
you didn't try to tell
them the truth.
252
00:18:10,195 --> 00:18:12,959
It's a marvelous machine.
Prentiss bought it for me.
253
00:18:13,031 --> 00:18:15,022
Didn't realize how demanding
tennis was.
254
00:18:15,100 --> 00:18:17,466
Skip a day
and your game is shot.
255
00:18:17,535 --> 00:18:20,698
Yeah, it'd be a shame
to lose your backhand, too.
256
00:18:28,446 --> 00:18:32,109
Prentiss is dead,
and I'm sorry,
whatever you think.
257
00:18:32,317 --> 00:18:34,410
Genuinely and deeply sorry.
258
00:18:35,420 --> 00:18:38,685
But I'm not going to pretend
emotions I don't feel.
259
00:18:39,057 --> 00:18:41,719
I married Prentiss
because I loved him.
260
00:18:42,127 --> 00:18:46,962
And I kept on loving him,
even though it was obvious
that he no longer loved me.
261
00:18:47,565 --> 00:18:50,500
How many affairs do you think
it takes to kill a marriage?
262
00:18:50,568 --> 00:18:52,331
I really don't know.
263
00:18:52,871 --> 00:18:54,964
Neither do I.
I lost count.
264
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,207
I thought maybe after
he'd get tired of
playing around,
265
00:18:59,277 --> 00:19:01,677
he'd want the marriage
as much as I did.
266
00:19:01,746 --> 00:19:03,714
Didn't work out that way.
267
00:19:03,782 --> 00:19:05,875
So we settled
for an arrangement.
268
00:19:05,950 --> 00:19:07,918
We settled for
liking each other.
269
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,786
If my husband didn't demand
hypocrisy of me,
I don't know why you should.
270
00:19:12,857 --> 00:19:15,121
No love, no hard feelings?
271
00:19:15,527 --> 00:19:16,994
That's right.
272
00:19:17,796 --> 00:19:19,957
Where were you last night,
Janet?
273
00:19:20,031 --> 00:19:21,623
We're back to that again?
274
00:19:21,699 --> 00:19:25,191
Yeah. And we're gonna keep
coming back to it till
you tell me the truth.
275
00:19:25,270 --> 00:19:26,635
I told you the truth.
276
00:19:26,704 --> 00:19:28,535
You didn't even tell me
a good lie.
277
00:19:28,606 --> 00:19:30,972
You should pick a place
where they don't know you.
278
00:19:31,042 --> 00:19:33,806
They know you
at the drug store.
You weren't there.
279
00:19:33,878 --> 00:19:36,005
Where I was is my business.
280
00:19:36,081 --> 00:19:39,881
Now you made it my business
last night when you sent me
looking for Prentiss.
281
00:19:39,951 --> 00:19:42,181
Now, you told me you were ill,
you weren't.
282
00:19:42,253 --> 00:19:44,813
You told me you went to
the drug store and you didn't.
283
00:19:44,889 --> 00:19:47,414
You told me you called me
from home.
284
00:19:47,926 --> 00:19:50,360
Maybe you called me
from Bay City.
285
00:19:51,429 --> 00:19:54,398
Do I have to remind you again
that if I had killed Prentiss,
286
00:19:54,466 --> 00:19:57,993
I wouldn't be idiotic enough
to send you out
to check up on him?
287
00:19:59,704 --> 00:20:02,605
I make a good alibi.
Now, where were you, Janet?
288
00:20:02,674 --> 00:20:05,700
I was out.
That much I know.
289
00:20:06,177 --> 00:20:08,839
I was with somebody.
Come on, Janet.
290
00:20:09,114 --> 00:20:11,173
A man.
That's not enough.
291
00:20:12,083 --> 00:20:14,517
He's a member of the club.
That's still not enough.
292
00:20:14,586 --> 00:20:16,713
His name is Sterling Parker.
293
00:20:17,722 --> 00:20:19,451
All right,
you wanna know everything?
294
00:20:19,524 --> 00:20:23,187
I was thinking of
having an affair with him.
I changed my mind.
295
00:20:23,261 --> 00:20:24,853
What changed it?
296
00:20:25,497 --> 00:20:28,432
Two hours in the front seat of
a sports car!
297
00:20:47,452 --> 00:20:49,249
[Knocking on door]
298
00:20:57,295 --> 00:20:58,523
Come in.
299
00:21:08,573 --> 00:21:10,063
I'm going to Tahiti.
300
00:21:10,141 --> 00:21:11,938
(Rockford)
That isn't necessary.
301
00:21:12,143 --> 00:21:15,169
Why don't you just tell me
you're sorry you lied to me?
302
00:21:15,246 --> 00:21:18,579
Why don't you cooperate
so I can make a reservation?
303
00:21:20,785 --> 00:21:24,482
I can't leave till
this is resolved.
I wouldn't feel right.
304
00:21:25,990 --> 00:21:28,550
Between your tennis lessons
and your travel folders,
305
00:21:28,626 --> 00:21:30,150
I hate to tell you
what you're doing to
306
00:21:30,228 --> 00:21:32,287
the whole mystique of
widowhood.
307
00:21:33,198 --> 00:21:37,635
Not to mention the fact that
your attitude makes you
look guilty as hell.
308
00:21:40,004 --> 00:21:42,529
If the police ever change
their decision on suicide,
309
00:21:42,607 --> 00:21:45,440
you wouldn't make
a bad suspect yourself.
310
00:21:46,611 --> 00:21:48,909
We've enjoyed
a prior relationship
311
00:21:48,980 --> 00:21:52,177
and there's only our word
that it ended
when I got married.
312
00:21:52,250 --> 00:21:55,344
You were in the motel room,
you found Prentiss.
313
00:21:55,453 --> 00:21:58,047
And the Bay City Police
don't like you.
314
00:21:58,122 --> 00:22:00,113
That puts you way up
on the list.
315
00:22:00,191 --> 00:22:04,355
Sandbagging
never works with me, Janet.
It just makes me unfriendly.
316
00:22:04,462 --> 00:22:06,430
That wasn't sandbagging.
317
00:22:06,864 --> 00:22:11,733
I was only demonstrating
how easy it would be to argue
a case proving your guilt.
318
00:22:12,270 --> 00:22:15,637
Only, I wouldn't believe
you were guilty.
I know you.
319
00:22:16,207 --> 00:22:18,869
Cataloguing my virtues
won't work, either.
320
00:22:18,943 --> 00:22:22,401
I hold them to a minimum
so they're easy to
keep a track of.
321
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,038
What will work?
322
00:22:28,553 --> 00:22:32,455
I think I may have something
to point you
in another direction.
323
00:22:33,258 --> 00:22:35,624
I was going through
some of Prentiss' things
324
00:22:35,693 --> 00:22:38,127
and I found this in
one of his suit jackets.
325
00:22:38,196 --> 00:22:40,323
(Rockford)
Bay City liquors.
326
00:22:40,398 --> 00:22:43,299
There's a delivery charge
I could check on.
327
00:22:43,635 --> 00:22:45,398
Could I borrow your
car tomorrow?
328
00:22:45,470 --> 00:22:47,370
What's the matter with yours?
329
00:22:47,438 --> 00:22:50,669
The Bay City Police
are gonna be looking for mine.
330
00:22:51,009 --> 00:22:54,103
Was Prentiss still
with that insurance company?
331
00:22:54,212 --> 00:22:56,840
Yes. But you won't find
anything there.
332
00:22:56,914 --> 00:22:58,575
I'll let you know.
Jim,
333
00:22:59,951 --> 00:23:03,352
I know I have to get used
to being alone eventually.
334
00:23:03,721 --> 00:23:05,120
But not yet.
335
00:23:07,191 --> 00:23:08,954
I don't have a guest room.
336
00:23:09,027 --> 00:23:10,961
I do.
337
00:23:18,334 --> 00:23:20,199
Thank you for seeing me,
Mr. Saunders.
338
00:23:19,632 --> 00:23:21,259
(Saunders)
Come in, Mr. Rockford.
339
00:23:20,269 --> 00:23:24,000
Well, not at all.
I want to do anything
I can to be of help.
340
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,334
Here, I think you'll find
this comfortable.
Thank you.
341
00:23:27,410 --> 00:23:29,742
What would you like to know?
342
00:23:30,813 --> 00:23:34,510
I'd appreciate anything
you could tell me
about Prentiss Carr.
343
00:23:34,583 --> 00:23:36,517
That would be a good deal.
344
00:23:36,585 --> 00:23:40,316
See, Prentiss was with us
almost since the inception of
the firm.
345
00:23:40,389 --> 00:23:44,291
He grew right along
with the company.
He was Controller, you know,
346
00:23:44,360 --> 00:23:47,420
and was about to be named
Executive Vice President.
347
00:23:47,496 --> 00:23:51,557
There was nothing here
in his work,
that might have disturbed him?
348
00:23:51,767 --> 00:23:55,100
Not that I can think of.
His department was
in great shape.
349
00:23:55,171 --> 00:23:56,832
The books all balanced.
350
00:23:56,906 --> 00:23:58,840
Sounds like
the ideal employee.
351
00:23:59,208 --> 00:24:02,268
He was. He'll be a hard man
to replace.
352
00:24:04,947 --> 00:24:06,346
Is that all?
353
00:24:06,549 --> 00:24:09,882
There's not much you can ask
about somebody too good
to be true.
354
00:24:09,952 --> 00:24:13,183
I guess we all have a tendency
to eulogize the dead.
355
00:24:13,255 --> 00:24:16,554
But I didn't exaggerate
his importance to the firm.
356
00:24:17,093 --> 00:24:20,927
Personally,
he was a practical,
phlegmatic man.
357
00:24:20,996 --> 00:24:24,056
He doesn't sound like
a candidate for suicide.
358
00:24:24,233 --> 00:24:27,964
No. And when I heard
what had happened,
I didn't believe it.
359
00:24:28,371 --> 00:24:30,032
Do you believe it now?
360
00:24:30,106 --> 00:24:33,405
In view of the evidence
and the police report, yes.
361
00:24:33,743 --> 00:24:36,473
I don't understand it,
but I believe it.
362
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:39,907
Thank you, Mr. Saunders.
Not at all.
363
00:24:48,290 --> 00:24:50,588
This is Mr. Carr, P.H. Carr.
364
00:24:50,826 --> 00:24:53,556
I'd like you to send me
over a bottle of
your best Scotch,
365
00:24:53,629 --> 00:24:55,187
a six-pack of soda.
366
00:24:56,365 --> 00:24:58,799
Usual address.
Immediate delivery.
367
00:24:58,901 --> 00:25:02,997
Carr. C-A-R-R. Who is this?
You new there?
368
00:25:03,472 --> 00:25:05,667
Look, the charge number is
369
00:25:06,275 --> 00:25:09,335
614-21242.
370
00:25:10,112 --> 00:25:12,603
Yeah, send it over right now
if you will.
371
00:25:12,681 --> 00:25:14,273
The sooner the better.
Thank you.
372
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,514
You made good time.
You beat me here.
373
00:25:53,589 --> 00:25:54,886
That is the order for Carr,
isn't it?
374
00:25:54,957 --> 00:25:56,390
Yeah.
Yeah. All right, here.
375
00:25:56,459 --> 00:25:57,949
No.
It's supposed to be a charge.
376
00:25:58,027 --> 00:26:00,757
That's all right.
That's a tip, son.
You keep it.
377
00:26:00,830 --> 00:26:03,025
Thank you.
Thanks, Mr. Carr.

(Furlong)
What are you doing here?
384
00:27:44,900 --> 00:27:46,162
Hi, Lieutenant.
385
00:27:46,468 --> 00:27:47,935
What're you doing
out of Bay City?
386
00:27:48,003 --> 00:27:49,800
This is Bay City.
387
00:27:49,872 --> 00:27:51,737
No. This is Oak Grove.
388
00:27:52,007 --> 00:27:54,305
It's Bay City,
and you know it.
389
00:27:54,777 --> 00:27:57,371
Well, now, I'm not very good
on directions,
390
00:27:57,446 --> 00:27:59,380
but I can't be that far off.
Are you sure?
391
00:27:59,448 --> 00:28:01,211
Out of the car. Out.
392
00:28:03,352 --> 00:28:06,344
Sergeant, would you mind
putting that thing away?
I mean...
393
00:28:06,422 --> 00:28:09,414
All right.
Hands against the top.
Spread 'em!
394
00:28:09,491 --> 00:28:11,356
Lieutenant...
Shut up.
395
00:28:12,661 --> 00:28:14,026
He's clean.
396
00:28:14,797 --> 00:28:16,697
All right, now we had
a conversation,
397
00:28:16,765 --> 00:28:18,528
and I made you
a couple of promises.
398
00:28:18,601 --> 00:28:20,728
There's nothing
I'd hold you to.
399
00:28:20,803 --> 00:28:22,862
Would you mind?
I bruise easy.
400
00:28:23,739 --> 00:28:25,263
How easy? That easy?
401
00:28:25,341 --> 00:28:28,105
I'm not gonna ask you
what you're doing here
in Bay City.
402
00:28:28,177 --> 00:28:31,476
I just wanna know
what you're doing here,
on this particular street.
403
00:28:31,547 --> 00:28:33,606
That's it, pal, that's it.
404
00:28:34,116 --> 00:28:36,516
Now, I don't wanna play
your little game anymore,
405
00:28:36,585 --> 00:28:38,815
and I don't have to
tell you squat.
406
00:28:41,123 --> 00:28:43,751
Where'd you learn
to be so tough, Rockford?
407
00:28:43,826 --> 00:28:45,293
In the joint?
408
00:28:45,561 --> 00:28:49,463
That's right.
We checked your record,
and you are an ex-con.
409
00:28:49,632 --> 00:28:52,499
You should have read
the report
all the way through.
410
00:28:52,568 --> 00:28:55,435
I'm not on parole.
I got a full pardon.
411
00:28:55,504 --> 00:28:57,836
Let's just say you
got yourself a good lawyer.
412
00:28:57,906 --> 00:28:59,737
I still have a good lawyer.
413
00:28:59,808 --> 00:29:01,366
You're gonna need
a good lawyer,
414
00:29:01,443 --> 00:29:03,775
unless you got a good reason
for being here.
415
00:29:03,846 --> 00:29:06,007
I don't need a good reason
for being here.
416
00:29:06,081 --> 00:29:07,810
You may not want me
in Bay City,
417
00:29:07,883 --> 00:29:10,215
but there's no law
to keep me out.
418
00:29:10,452 --> 00:29:11,976
[Sighing]
419
00:29:12,054 --> 00:29:14,420
You're not very bright,
are you?
420
00:29:15,024 --> 00:29:16,958
You're an ex-con
and we're cops.
421
00:29:17,026 --> 00:29:20,223
You heard what the Chief said.
He admires and respects us.
422
00:29:20,295 --> 00:29:23,731
So, if we decide
to play it rough, believe me,
we can hang you
423
00:29:23,799 --> 00:29:26,393
and there's nothing
you can do about it.
424
00:29:26,468 --> 00:29:28,902
You're a real credit
to the force.
425
00:29:29,972 --> 00:29:33,066
All right, I'm gonna tell you
once more
and that's it.
426
00:29:33,142 --> 00:29:35,610
We don't want you here
in Bay City
427
00:29:35,678 --> 00:29:38,670
and we don't want you messing
in that suicide.
428
00:29:39,114 --> 00:29:40,638
You understand?
429
00:29:42,951 --> 00:29:45,249
All right,
we're gonna let you go.
430
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,016
Only, this time,
you make it permanent.
431
00:29:48,090 --> 00:29:51,082
Changing cars
doesn't make you invisible,
mister.
432
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,425
Now, if you decide
to come back here
looking for trouble...
433
00:29:54,530 --> 00:29:56,930
I'll know right
where to find it.
434
00:30:28,297 --> 00:30:30,162
How did you know where I was?
435
00:30:30,232 --> 00:30:31,961
I'm a detective.
Remember?
436
00:30:33,736 --> 00:30:36,671
Did you get anywhere
with that receipt
from the liquor store?
437
00:30:36,739 --> 00:30:38,707
I'm not here to talk
about the receipt.
438
00:30:38,774 --> 00:30:42,039
I'm here to talk about you.
I checked with the club.
439
00:30:42,111 --> 00:30:44,443
They never heard of
a Sterling Parker.
440
00:30:44,513 --> 00:30:46,071
He's not on
the membership roster
441
00:30:46,148 --> 00:30:49,049
and he didn't have
a guest card.
So, where were you?
442
00:30:49,318 --> 00:30:53,220
Jim, please, don't be angry.
I didn't lie to you.
Not really.
443
00:30:54,123 --> 00:30:57,149
I just didn't tell you
who he is.
So I made up a name.
444
00:30:57,359 --> 00:30:59,827
He is married.
He has two children.
445
00:31:00,195 --> 00:31:02,493
He also has a name.
What is it?
446
00:31:04,066 --> 00:31:06,660
Harry Fielding.
Harry Fielding.
447
00:31:07,703 --> 00:31:10,331
Okay, Janet.
And this one better check out.
448
00:31:10,405 --> 00:31:12,066
It'll check out.
449
00:31:13,041 --> 00:31:14,599
And what about the receipt?
450
00:31:14,676 --> 00:31:17,668
It paid off.
The girl's name is
Nancy Hellman.
451
00:31:17,746 --> 00:31:20,510
I followed her this morning
from her house to her office.
452
00:31:20,582 --> 00:31:22,550
She's a secretary
in Bay City,
453
00:31:22,618 --> 00:31:25,883
which gives me
two hot prospects
for your husband's murder:
454
00:31:26,488 --> 00:31:28,353
Nancy Hellman and you.
455
00:31:29,057 --> 00:31:30,285
Now wait a minute.
456
00:31:30,359 --> 00:31:33,487
You can't just say something
like that to me
and then just walk off.
457
00:31:33,562 --> 00:31:37,464
Look, Janet,
either you're good for
this killing or you're not.
458
00:31:37,533 --> 00:31:39,728
Now, I wanna believe all this.
459
00:31:40,335 --> 00:31:42,963
I watched you.
You're very good at it.
460
00:31:43,038 --> 00:31:44,869
But you also wanna
run off to Tahiti
461
00:31:44,940 --> 00:31:47,272
and spend all the money
that Prentiss left you.
462
00:31:47,342 --> 00:31:49,071
That makes me wonder why.
463
00:31:49,144 --> 00:31:51,305
I bet your grandfather
was a preacher.
464
00:31:51,380 --> 00:31:54,213
As a matter of fact,
he was a horse thief.
465
00:31:54,817 --> 00:31:56,341
(Eddie)
Gotta get my bumper fixed.
466
00:31:56,418 --> 00:31:58,545
Are you sure you're not gonna
need the car now?
467
00:31:58,620 --> 00:32:00,144
I don't drive much anymore.
468
00:32:00,222 --> 00:32:03,055
Thanks a lot, Eddie.
I really appreciate it.
469
00:32:06,929 --> 00:32:08,260
Just one thing.
470
00:32:08,330 --> 00:32:11,356
When you come to a stop,
throw it in neutral
and give it a little gas.
471
00:32:11,433 --> 00:32:12,866
That way,
she won't die on you.
472
00:32:12,935 --> 00:32:16,427
Eddie, I wanted a mature car
so it wouldn't
attract attention.
473
00:32:16,505 --> 00:32:18,973
If it's gonna die on me
every time I hit
an intersection...
474
00:32:19,041 --> 00:32:21,407
It won't die.
Just throw it in neutral.
475
00:32:21,476 --> 00:32:22,875
And give it a little gas.
476
00:32:24,146 --> 00:32:27,206
No wonder you don't do
too much driving, Eddie.

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
483
00:36:28,389 --> 00:36:30,983
I want you to take this car
to a guy named Eddie Smith.
484
00:36:31,058 --> 00:36:32,719
His address is
on the registration.
485
00:36:32,793 --> 00:36:36,126
You haven't seen Rocky
around here, have you?
He should be here by now.
486
00:36:36,197 --> 00:36:39,655
That's why you got me out here
in the middle of nowhere?
To return a car for you?
487
00:36:39,733 --> 00:36:43,066
No. I thought you might like
to know that you're not
a suspect anymore.
488
00:36:43,137 --> 00:36:45,230
What finally convinced you?
489
00:36:45,439 --> 00:36:48,306

and awkward conversation

Look, Janet, if Rocky doesn't
show up here in
the next 30 seconds,
492
00:36:55,616 --> 00:36:58,346
I'm gonna have to
borrow your car again.
I don't wanna chance it.
493
00:36:58,419 --> 00:36:59,613
Where are you going?
494
00:36:59,687 --> 00:37:01,484
Back to Bay City.
495
00:37:01,589 --> 00:37:04,387
That liquor store receipt
really did pay off.
496
00:37:04,458 --> 00:37:05,720
It led me to Nancy Hellman,
497
00:37:05,793 --> 00:37:09,126
who led me to
your husband's boss,
Eric Saunders.
498
00:37:09,263 --> 00:37:10,491
Saunders?
499
00:37:10,731 --> 00:37:12,528
Nancy Hellman's
blackmailing him.

I don't know
what she's got on him,
501
00:37:15,169 --> 00:37:18,002
but they're both tied in
with Prentiss,
so I think I should find out.

Hey, Rocky.
504
00:37:22,009 --> 00:37:25,035
I'll call you after I talk to
Nancy Hellman.
505

When you're driving this car
and you come up to a stop

and give it a little gas.
That way it won't die on you.
507
00:37:31,819 --> 00:37:33,411
I got here
as quick as I could.
508
00:37:33,487 --> 00:37:35,512
Yeah, I really appreciate it,
Rocky.
509
00:37:35,589 --> 00:37:37,989
What'd you do,
wash this thing?
Kind of an eye-catcher.
510
00:37:38,058 --> 00:37:40,618
Twice a week.
You don't see one
like this all the time.
511
00:37:40,694 --> 00:37:42,787
You know what really
grabs people the most?
512
00:37:42,863 --> 00:37:45,229
Those road lights up
on top of the roll bar.
513
00:37:45,299 --> 00:37:47,290
I don't want to show it
in competition.
514
00:37:47,368 --> 00:37:49,268
I just wanna drive it
for a couple of hours.
515
00:37:51,839 --> 00:37:53,864
Rocky, how much?
516
00:37:54,074 --> 00:37:56,872
I'll tell you what.
You might put
in a little gas
517
00:37:56,944 --> 00:37:58,969
just sort of
top off the tanks?
518
00:37:59,446 --> 00:38:00,777
Thank you, Rocky.

Rocky?
520
00:38:02,750 --> 00:38:06,311
You've got dual fuel tanks
in this thing.
It'll take me 40 gallons.

you're going?

to call my lawyer.

I don't know
what you're talking about.

It just might save your life.

Prentiss Carr was murdered
by Saunders
572

because he was trying
to shake him down.

00:44:58,063 --> 00:45:00,861
Nancy Hellman was dusted off
for the same reason.
574
00:45:00,932 --> 00:45:03,958
Nancy walked in
on her boyfriend, Prentiss,
to help him count the money.
575
00:45:04,035 --> 00:45:05,332
Only, she found him dead.
576
00:45:05,403 --> 00:45:07,530
She didn't want
a murder investigation,
577
00:45:07,606 --> 00:45:10,598
so she tried to make it look
like Carr committed suicide.
578
00:45:10,675 --> 00:45:13,269
That means she knew
why Saunders was
being blackmailed.
579
00:45:13,345 --> 00:45:14,607
I think you know, too.
580

called the cops.

and let you explain it
to them.

Then we can talk.

money in this.
I mean, plenty.

for both of us?

or I can keep my mouth shut.

I like the part about
making me a lot of money.

You get the 60.

Okay. 60-40.
595
00:46:11,236 --> 00:46:12,464
You were right about Nancy.
596
00:46:12,537 --> 00:46:14,437
She was the one
who faked that guy's suicide,
597
00:46:14,506 --> 00:46:16,701
so she could blackmail
Saunders herself.
598
00:46:16,775 --> 00:46:18,743
Blackmail him with what?
599
00:46:18,977 --> 00:46:21,844
Prentiss Carr was
the Controller in
that insurance company.
600
00:46:21,913 --> 00:46:24,177
He found out that Saunders was
selling policies
601
00:46:24,249 --> 00:46:25,841
on things like
the Houghton Bridge,
602
00:46:25,917 --> 00:46:27,908
the Mullhard Aqueduct,
big things like that.
603
00:46:28,887 --> 00:46:32,618
Only, Saunders never sent
the policies back to
the main office in New York.
604
00:46:32,691 --> 00:46:35,023
He put them away in a safe,
collected the premiums...
605
00:46:35,093 --> 00:46:37,288
and put the money in
his personal account.
606
00:46:37,362 --> 00:46:39,922
He's still collecting
about a half a million a year.
607
00:46:39,998 --> 00:46:41,761
And we can get ours.
608
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,100
Half a million a year.
609
00:46:44,903 --> 00:46:47,838
I can see where you could
work up an appetite.
610
00:46:47,906 --> 00:46:49,373
Thanks a lot.

00:46:51,776 --> 00:46:53,937
No. I'm turning you
over to the cops.
613
00:46:54,579 --> 00:46:56,911
You said we had a deal.
I lied.
614
00:46:57,982 --> 00:46:59,745
Okay, take him out.
615
00:47:03,888 --> 00:47:08,018
The aqueduct's not insured,
the bridge's not insured,
and the dam's not insured.
616
00:47:08,126 --> 00:47:10,253
Saunders was working
with pretty good odds.
617
00:47:10,328 --> 00:47:12,922
I mean,
whatever happens to a bridge?
618
00:47:13,198 --> 00:47:14,756
Hold on a minute,
Mr. Rockford.
619

you should do before you go.

What's that?
621
00:47:18,236 --> 00:47:21,933
I've already given Furlong
and Larsen hell about
the way they hassled you,
622
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:25,134
but you've made
some very serious charges
against them.
623
00:47:25,210 --> 00:47:27,838
I think before you leave,
you should apologize.
624
00:47:27,912 --> 00:47:30,380
You think
I should apologize to them?
625
00:47:30,448 --> 00:47:32,939
There's no need to apologize.
Everything's fine.

Don't worry about it,
Chief. No sweat.

better get back to work.

let's buy him a drink.

Then we'll run him
out of town.

think of that?

for Tahiti now?

Not right away, of course.

commitments first.

who's getting married.

for a while.

until she gets back
from her honeymoon.
