moved it here so the tide wouldn't get

it and put the top back on to keep it

out of the rain i can show you the exact

spot i marked it with a stick

so this piece of beach is out of the

water what how long maybe three hours a

day so if you don't come walking wrong

right when you did chances are the bones

wash into the lagoon at the next tide

aloha evidence

possibly forever

make a believer out of you man

it's her all right

muff graham

if that's muff graham then this is my

grandma no question

not unless there's a parallel universe

out there

there you go baby vitamins to make you

grow strong and tall if the thing gets

any bigger it's gonna have to start

paying wrench i don't hear you it can't

scare me it looks harmless all right but

in africa they call them strangler

things they attach themselves to a big

hardwood and suck the life right out of

[Music]

victorious

[Music]

sorry i'm late i am len wineglass uh ted

jenkins this is my sister jennifer hi my

mother sonny hi

just some iced tea please

i uh read the material you sent over

some pretty grisly accusations well

they're not true mom

before we jump in i do have one question

why me

you were recommended

well i'm basically a political attorney

yeah we know

abby hoffman chicago 7 pentagon papers

jennifer's been unjustly accused

isn't that political enough

most of my clients are guilty they

freely admit doing what they're accused

of

then i'll be a refreshing novelty

would you be willing to take a polygraph

lie detector results aren't admissible

in court so why

well if we uh if we wanted him to the

prosecuting attorney would see them

so would you

is your true name jennifer jenkins

yes

do you reside currently at 635 evergreen

street fairmont

yes

did you know muff and mac graham

yes

did you participate in any way and

causing the disappearance of muff or mac

graham

no

did you participate in any type of plan

to cause harm to muff or mac graham

no

were you present

when muff graham was killed

no no

when you left the island

did you know muff graham had been killed

no

how'd i do well i'll have to do some

interpreting

look i had a little trouble with one of

the questions no which one

he asked me if i was present when muff

was killed yes

well i knew what you meant but

i was on the island can you restructure

the question certainly if you excuse us

please

take two

we could be in trouble here am i right

possibly

i think i'm gonna need all the help i

can get

[Applause]

oh

well i want to thank you vince you know

those guys down at the da's office we

get a little arrogant so these

humiliation sessions they help to keep

my perspective yeah well i'm glad i

could help

after you no no no winners first i

always have to go first

hey listen

you're gonna talk to my friend

eddie i'm not a tv player if i was that

would be a basketball court

why would i want this

i'm not talking juan vince i'm talking

need i mean at least talk to him

hi eddie

mr bullios my name's ted jenkins my

sister needs your help

eddie tells me that your sister already

has an attorney

glenn whitehead's a very competent man

and len thinks you'd be an invaluable

addition to the team

he says it's one thing for a political

lawyer to stand up in front of a jury

and say my client is innocent but of

vince boliosi who put away charlie

manson stands up and says

i was a prosecutor for many years i've

seen thousands of guilty defendants and

i'm telling you this client is innocent

that's worth something

did led tell you that i only take

capital cases

when i'm convinced that my client didn't

do it

or at least was justified in doing it

yes

i don't see a problem

[Music]

jennifer if i agree to defend you i'm

gonna need your help

i want you to make two lists

things you remember which might help

your case things you remember which

might hurt it

can you do that

what do you mean if

i thought everyone had a legal right to

cancel

but it doesn't necessarily have to be me

you don't believe me do you

it's the buoyancy i didn't kill anyone

are you telling me that your boyfriend

killed him and you knew nothing about it

no

no

he couldn't have i mean i know i mean

it's impossible

so he couldn't and you didn't but

they're dead

tell me what happened on the day they

disappeared

[Music]

we've been on the island about three

months

we're running pretty short of provisions

so we were getting ready to sail to this

other island to buy some

bucks said that mac and muffet invited

us over to the sea wind

that was their boat

for a sort of farewell dinner

becca been breaking down his camp and i

was baking on the iola

but we met up at about six and

walked over to this little inlet where

the sea wind was moored here go ahead go

ahead go ahead no

[Music]

oh hi seaweed dinner guest request

permission to come aboard

hello

you sure they invited us no i dreamed it

said they were going to try for benito

if they didn't make it back in time we

should just come aboard and make

ourselves at home

i didn't think it was a big deal

in fact he told me that they said they

were going to go fishing and

if they weren't back by the time we got

there we should just come aboard and

wait

there were drinks and hors d'oeuvres

even apricot brandy my favorite

buck dove right in

we've been living on crabs and coconuts

for two weeks

anyway

after about three hours when they didn't

show up i was getting pretty freaked i

wanted to go and look for them right

then but

buck said they probably just got hung up

someplace and then had to sleep the

night on the beach and when besides it

was dark

it was dark

pitch black

in any way buck was drunk

searching the dark would just get lost

our song

relax baby they probably just went

outside the reef and

had trouble getting back

i finally fell asleep a couple of hours

later but

at first light i i woke up back and and

we started to search

didn't take us long after about an hour

we found it

it was their dinghy

flipped over on the sand like it had

drifted up with a tide

lux said that they must have had an

accident in the laguna and the sharks

had gotten to them

searched for four days but

never found a trace of them

jennifer there were four people

on a little tiny island two of them

disappeared

one turned up as a bunch of bones in an

aluminum box the other two ended up in

hawaii on a boat stolen from the victims

before i agreed to defend you

you're gonna have to explain to me why

those numbers don't add up to

cold-blooded burgers

it's hard to believe she killed anyone

she just seems

well nice she's perfectly plausible i

just can't get the arithmetic out of my

head

four people on a tiny little island

two of them disappear and the other two

end up in hawaii with their boats

four minus two equals two

what was that last thing you said

they said two from four leaves two not

one

i just can't figure out how he could

have killed him without her knowing

about it

well maybe this is one time you can't be

100 sure and the victim's body was

broken up or cut up so the killer could

stuff it into a metal box

and there was some evidence that her

face was burned within the settlement

torch she took a lie detector test yeah

yeah she scored a plus seven

so she's telling the truth yeah sort of

that's kind of a sliding scale between

plus six and minus six is

in the gray area

truthful goes up to plus 30.

so plus seven is right on the border

truthful

god you've got nuts on your knots

yeah i like the fact that she wouldn't

put the head on her

boyfriend if she were guilty she'd have

jumped at the chance when i gave it to

her she didn't

she almost came unglued

well then

and she did offer to take the polygraph

test

and let the jury hear the results

i don't know there's still something

something wrong something missing

evening vince

even lynn

back back huh yeah i like him i can keep

my hands free

nice tie

huh

no please no go ahead no thanks

oh

[Music]

well in case we get bored

it was just in there

so it's understood

if we're gonna work together

you handle the forensic stuff in the

experts and i'll deal with jennifer well

are we going to work together

you believe her as much as i need to

can you give me a couple more days

yeah sure no problem whatever you need

listen i want you to get to know mac and

muff better so i got the discovery

documents from the prosecution

i'll be enough to start you off with

basically it's a statement from max

sister kitt

uh

racing sushi

of course

in the early seventies mack muff george

and i were all living in san diego

george and i were suburbanites mike and

luck lived on their boats

it's a beautiful thing max pride and joy

but i can tell you right now if it had

been muff's choice they've probably been

down the street from us in some nice

quiet boring little ranch style on firm

solid ground you know there's a really

cute home for sale two streets over from

us no no really and george was saying

just the other day max been with convair

what is it about seven months now

maybe maybe he's tired of

deep water sailing and maybe we can live

like a normal couple stranger things

have happened not to your brother they

haven't

sometimes i prefer to think of him

strictly as your husband thank you

hello

ahoy matey now what are you doing at

home so early that's it no kiss no

congratulations congratulations for what

i got great news

honey you remember when i went to work

for convair yeah april it was in april

ah

i thought it was in may

when i realized i'd been sitting at that

damn drafting table a month more than i

needed to

i thought skipper you're losing it so i

got up and walked right into tillman's

office and i looked him right in the eye

and i told him the truth

well in 10 minutes he was offering me a

transfer i officially refused and he

officially laid me off

sweetheart first mate in light of me

life we're free again let's go sailing

it's called palmyra about a thousand

miles south of honolulu there was a

naval air station on it during the war

but it's totally deserted now no radios

no tv no phones just blue lagoons white

sandy beaches and coconut ponds

our own island paradise how long you

figured it'd be gone

maybe two years give or take

[Applause]

how's my feel about it

buddy if it involves packing she'll be

right there

tell him no

tell him you don't wanna go if i tell

him he will go without me then let him

sis

i would rather be with mac

in the middle of a forest tan gale than

anywhere else in the entire world

without him

and that's the way it is

stop worrying about me yeah

mac i'm telling you come on if she was

upset she'd have said something we don't

keep speaking she's afraid she is not

afraid

look kid i'm not an insensitive clod

but

i know she's not that nuts about blue

water sailing not the way i am

so i haven't said anything to anyone

this is our last trip we get back i'm

gonna sell the seaweed want to buy some

land maybe up in the eastern sierras and

build her a little a-frame mac graham

you're not only an insensitive clod

you're a complete idiot

a cabin in the sierras how about an

igloo at the north pole

she wants to be around people her

friends her family movies restaurants

okay okay how about i build her a little

a-frame in the middle of high-five how's

that you satisfying you tell her that

crazy he thought we'd corner the market

say it oh you're being ridiculous i

can't believe things i have saved

worry about that when you think about

this think about what you're doing i've

thought about it mom have you what do

you know about him

ted

all i need to know he told you he went

to prison on a sort of comic opera armed

robbery with an unloaded gun right yeah

and there were a couple of parole

violations that were only technicalities

right

did he happen to mention that he was

first arrested when he was 12 that he

escaped twice from a juvenile detention

home that he was convicted of car theft

joyriding and burglary that's all before

he was 16. i mean that's just the first

page there are three more jim

jen

jennifer yeah

jen seven years ago he was committed to

a hospital for the criminally insane i

lied eh

i know about that ted he was only faking

so he wouldn't be sent back to quentin

sweetheart

i'm afraid if you go out on the ocean

you'll never come back

i will mom i will i promise

i know buck's done bad things but i love

him mom i love him like crazy and

there's good in him i can bring it out i

can change him i know i can

i guess in the end i couldn't but it

looked different then paradise was

waiting we were in love

and nothing was going to stop us

[Music]

hence

is this buck walker another

no

no i don't think so

i'm glad it's not your job to prosecute

him

i almost wish it was

it'd be a lot easier than defending his

girlfriend

you all right

yeah

i just get uneasy sometimes

charlie manson can't hurt us

he can't hurt us

he'll never get out of prison

he doesn't have to get out he

manipulates people he gets them to do

what he wants

is that how it was with jennifer

i honestly don't know

is she innocent

yeah she is

yeah that's precisely the question

if she is innocent can you help her

the only way i can think to defend her

is to prosecute him

it's funny

come to bed honey it's late

in a minute

this is the electronic recorded voice of

leonard whitehead smart people like you

know what to do so do it for as long as

you like

glenn this is vince muyossi i'm calling

it some ungodly hour thursday morning

if the offer's still open on the

jennifer jenkins matter

you've got yourself a cold council

hey vince jennifer

thanks for meeting me here

good news we gotta change the venue

hawaii's out i'm gonna be in our own

backyard

and you and buck are gonna have separate

trials great

how's he doing you heard anything

no i haven't

come on let's walk a little

okay

the bad news is we got judge king again

i think the only reason he picked san

francisco is because he's an opera buff

season started

great

i read the transcript if you're both

half trial

i just thought you were guilty that the

jury know it

got another judge

it doesn't work that way

i can't sure you can you can do anything

that's why i hired you

got any notes for me

oh yeah i'll do it tonight

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

the united states federal court for the

district of san francisco is now in

session

the honorable samuel king presiding

good morning ladies and gentlemen

well i

trust we're ready to make this first day

of testimony a productive one mr inoki

you may begin your opening statement and

so ladies and gentlemen

the evidence will show that their boat

was unseaworthy that they were down to

10 days supply of provisions and there

around the bend was a sea wind

its refrigerator chest

full of delicacies they hadn't tasted

for months there were literally

thousands of coconut palms

there were fish

there were

land crabs so huge you'd pay an arm and

a leg for them in your local supermarket

no one was going to starve to death on

this island mr billington this is an

opening statement not a closing argument

you get to argue the case later mr

shoemaker will you describe the

circumstances under which you first met

mack and muff graham

well of course i'd i'd known mack for

years over our ham radio network but uh

face to face was when they came into

hawaii on the way to palmyra

i mean my wife were waiting at the

marina when they came through the

channel

[Music]

all right

well if it ain't old n6ete and you must

be charlie uniform romeo tango the very

same funny i bet my wife you'd be short

and fat he did not

how was your crossing great

so we're on our honeymoon cruise off the

coast of morocco and we'd heard some

reports of pirates that like to ram

their targets kill the owners and set

them adrift

so it's about two in the morning and uh

it's foggy as hell i got the watch

and i hear an engine and i can make out

something barely in the distance it's a

trawler coming right at us

so i turn the trawler turns i turn

trawler turns again

okay sam so i yield out for muff to uh

bring up the rifle m16 army issue and i

tell her what i tell you nope it's your

story you do the line what line was

there a trawler no god help us there was

a trolley yeah he hit him right for us

and i tell her you take the helm and

don't turn away no matter what happens

and i make her swear he did he made me

swear yeah i jump up on the cabin to

turn on the floods so the captain can

see us and i aim that m16 right down his

throat and i don't move and muff bless

her heart doesn't turn so much as a

point

well by this time we're closing pretty

fast 30 yards 20 and 15 and i can feel

my own sweat

well at 10 yards

captain loses it swerves and misses us

by this much we never saw him again look

if the troller hadn't turned would you

have fired oh you bet he would have and

if he'd been the skipper of the troll or

he never would have turned away

he'd be dead kenwood rig with filters

are a speech processor dual vfo nice

got a less powerful rig in the boat but

this one's state-of-the-art

listen that it might be a good idea to

set up a link between here in palmyra

say once a week oh muff would love that

you know she gets spooked if she can't

stay in touch with her family

[Music]

i remember thinking to myself as they

sailed away

there go two of the nicest people i ever

met

and i figured one day i'd see him come

sailing back

it's still hard for me to accept the

fact that they're gone for good

i just can't believe it

[Music]

oh

stunning

nice place to work

would you rather i rented the

presidential suite at the fairmont

you're paying for it

how's it going

terrible

king is convinced that buck's guilty as

hell clobbers his attorney every chance

he gets

jury's losing all respect for him

what are you gonna do if he does that to

you

i don't know

and i'll tell you one thing

i'm gonna concede that muff was murdered

what

in your trial

i'm not gonna make any pretense of an

accident or anybody being eaten by

sharks our theory's gonna be that buck

murdered mac and muffin you knew nothing

about no

well jennifer that's what you told me i

didn't

he didn't no you listened to me

if i defend you the way billington's

defending buck you're gonna spend the

rest of your life in prison i couldn't

do a thing like that i would have known

i don't want to hear that

that's exactly what i have to convince

the jury is not true that you didn't

know because you didn't want to know you

still don't get this straight vince it

didn't happen but didn't do it and you

can't prove he did what's your favorite

drink

that got to do with anything just answer

the question

apricot brandy you know that you asked

me before

what about mac and muff did they know no

you sure yes i got a headache vince did

bucknell debunk no what your favorite

drink of course

the night mac and muff disappeared you

went to their boat for dinner

and you said these are not your exact

words but it's close enough you said

that muffin put out some more dirt some

cheese and crackers dry roasted peanuts

some vodka

and a bottle of apricot brandy

now think about that apricot brandy

not a very common drink

on the sea

wind on a tray just for you

don't put it out

when

we had a lot of work to do

i took navigational readings again and

again but i still couldn't figure out

where we were it all seemed like a blur

of choppy seas sleepless nights and

general nausea pretty discouraging all

in all the weather been in our favor

until one cloudy morning

oh you must be feeling better if you can

eat

little

how about giving me a hand we're wasting

good wind

baby i'm just waiting as a kid

the mainsail was still stuck and i

didn't have the strength to work it

loose by myself

i was fiddling with it for the umpteenth

time

it was so sudden sky just

just closed up one minute the sun was

shining and the next it was pitch black

and

just like that we were in serious

trouble

[Music]

ah

[Music]

[Music]

uh

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

uh

what have i done

what have i done

[Music]

ah

you got any idea where we are

shut up and hold still you know bite my

head off put a safety line on next time

okay

yes mother

you know it's kind of weird

my gut feels better oh now

wow

get

ready

ma

1604 and 22nd

right i'm gonna give this one last try

i think i did it i've been using the

wrong stupid day

see after two o'clock on this longitude

it becomes the next day in greenwich

which means i've been using the wrong

table since day one

so look at this here's palmyra here we

are if we come 20 degrees to starboard

we'll be heading right for it

we did it honey all right you did it

just call me columbus from now on

[Music]

so jennifer it was rough out there the

boat was leaky but reasonably seaworthy

and you finally discovered you were

right on course

how many days before you spotted land

18

it was a pretty great feeling

one minute we were a dot on the map with

a lot of ocean around us in the next

minute

well i guess you'll never know the

thriller spotting lands and you've been

lost at sea

land

[ __ ] get up here

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

just remember my name's roy allen don't

slip up who cares out here

i ain't taking any chances roy allen i

thought the whole idea of coming out

here was to get away from all that stuff

roy

besides what are you going to do about

that

roy

nickname

i really appreciate your help all right

well it's going to stay we're glad we're

here we're leaving day after tomorrow

place all to yourselves good

looks like we're turning into grand

central island

[Music]

it was a beautiful sight like seemed

hypnotized by it

look at that

sea wind was the kind of boat that could

easily sell around the world

and make a muffs incapable of doing just

that

hello how's it going

hi hi

well excuse me if i look surprised i uh

didn't think we'd have enough people

here for a soccer team

we're leaving after tomorrow um oh

anyway guided tour starting now if

anyone's interested yeah it'd be great

well we better take a rain check we got

some digging in to do huh kids and i

have to pack honey kids

see you later

[Music]

for a little while it really was

paradise

the palm trees the lagoon the white sand

maybe it was just the thrill of being

back on dry land

whatever it was the sensation didn't

last

palmyra was hot and sticky

the mosquitoes and bugs and mud

everywhere was pretty stinky too

still it did have its charms and bucks

seemed happy and relaxed for the first

time in a long time

free man at last

that's what i think it is highlight of

the tour been here for years don't know

who rigged it up but it works

[Music]

hippies

maybe they won't stay long

your honor the government calls dr

oliver harris

dr harris would an ordinary blow from a

human fist have been enough to break

muff graham's jaw no in order to split

the jawbone from the skull as this one

was would require tremendous force as

say a sledge hammer or a ball peen

hammer

dr harris you say there's evidence that

muff graham's skull was burned

could an acetylene torch have caused the

burning

yes agent shishido can you identify this

object

this looks like the torch we found

aboard the seawind

thank you sir

dr stevens i show you this box

and ask you

if the bones had not been broken would

the body of muff graham

fit in this box

impossible

using chromo and thermatography we found

on the inside of the box traces of fatty

acids consistent with the decomposition

product of human fat the box contained a

tiny piece of faded greenish color

cotton cloth which when subjected to a

phenophalang screening test reveal the

presence of human blood

oh sir

let me ask you your neighbor at the time

mr buck walker

would you consider him a violent man

your honor i object overruled violent

yes at times he'd be violent thank you

sir objection your honor that's

overruled your honor i don't see what

sit down mr billington i have already

overruled your objection

you're honored the government rests

uh

what are you doing here

isn't the name

jennifer you weren't in there

no vince i wasn't in there

then says it goes to jury monday

so didn't take the stand didn't testify

unbelievable

i want to be in the courtroom when the

jury comes back

no no that is out of the question why

what's the difference what's the

difference

the whole idea is to separate you from

buck

what if a journalist sees you

accuse killer's lover in court for

verdict that's the difference

jennifer

don't tell me you're still in love with

him

if you have a hesitation that's fine

if not

it'll help your case if you could say

that on the stand

without hesitation

i just think he needs to see at least

one friendly face

jennifer you listen to me

you stay away from that courtroom you

hear me i mean you stay away from that

building

we buy you a drink vince

from the start life on palmyra for buck

and me was all about getting enough to

eat

and it didn't take long for me to

realize that life in paradise could

easily turn into a full-time job

and not a very pleasant one at that

gorgeous

i'll bring you some great thanks i'm ice

watering already

[Music]

hmm

mecca muffs tonight stop baking another
