Father Dowling?

Sister Stephanie?

We're going to miss
our flight to Los Angeles.

Phil, the plane doesn't
leave for four hours.

Relax, Father. I'll
pour you a cup of tea.

I'll get it.

Is that our cab for the airport?

We haven't called
for a cab yet, Phil.

Oh.

Oh, I love Los Angeles.

The energy there
is so exhilarating.

I thought you were
only at the airport?

Well, yes, but you know,
you get a feel for the place.

Sister, it's Jennifer Donovan.
She seems very upset.

- Can we borrow your study, Frank?
- Sure.

Where's Father Finnerty?

My substitute hasn't
arrived yet, Phil.

He'll be here. I promise you.

Are you always this
way when you travel?

Ever since my parents
inadvertently lost me

at O'Hare International
when I was eight,

traveling's made
me a little nervous.

You're not going to lose
him, are you, Father?

Of course not.

How could Dad cancel
his trip here to see me?

What did he say?

That he's tied up. That
Laurie Kidd's got a new video.

The Laurie Kidd? The rock star?

Yeah. Dad's her manager.
He runs her career.

Just because of her
video, he's got to be there.

He said maybe I could
come out this summer.

Well, that's great.
That's something.

That's not enough!

Jennifer, where are you going?

I don't know.
Anywhere. Out of here.

So you're going to
run away from home?

That's great. That's
going to solve everything.

Well, who would care if I did?

- Your mom and your dad.
- Ah.

My mom's busy with
her new husband.

And my dad, he's
busy being successful.

Jen, I know you
want your father here,

but the bottom line is, you want your
parents back together like they were.

That's completely understandable,
but it's not reality, you know?

And running away is not
going to make it happen.

I just, uh...

I just feel so forgotten.

I know,

but you're not.

Your mom and your dad,
they love you a lot, you know.

I know sometimes it doesn't
seem like they do, but they do.

Now, I'm going to
go to Los Angeles.

I'll see your dad
and talk to him.

I'm going to tell him what's
going on with you. All right?

You will?

I will. But you
have to promise me

you're not going to do
anything crazy like run away.

Okay.

Okay.

You know, sometimes
if you're patient,

people come through
for you if you let them.

You have, Steve. Thanks.

Sure.

Phil, that's the
Chinese Theater.

What? Ha, ha.

Frank, we're in Hollywood!

Yes, Phil.

Here, would you take my picture?

If it's all right with you,

I just want to go check
into my room and lie down.

You know, two hours in a holding
pattern over LAX can be exhausting.

Come on, Steve.

Sister Stephanie?

Sure.

Um, back up just a little.
Come forward a little.

Steve!

I'm sorry. I can't.
I'm sorry. Sorry.

Oh, excuse me. Would
you be good enough...

Thank you.

But there must be some mistake.

You see right here?
There's two reservations.

One for Miss Oskowski and
one for Mr. Prestwick Dowling.

No. No. Prestwick
Dowling is not one person.

- I'm Dowling, he's... Where's Phil?
- He's over here.

Phil.

Frank, I've been robbed. I gave this
young man my camera and he took it.

You gave somebody your camera?

Phil, you booked two
rooms for three people.

That's ridiculous. There was a room
reserved in each one of our names.

I didn't give him my camera.

Father, I'm sorry, but the
hotel is completely booked.

If I might suggest, you two
gentlemen could share a room.

Phil, straighten this out.

Of course, Frank. Have
you checked under P?

Listen, I made a reservation
more than eight weeks ago.

I'll take anything.
Please, look again.

We had one for Prestwick,
one for Dowling and one for...

So anyway, I told Jennifer
that I would talk to you.

- Hmm.
- You've got to go see her, Max.

Gee, I would if I
could, but I can't.

Yeah, well, she told me
how important you are.

If I leave, Laurie
Kidd will fire me.

Oh, come on. She's
not going to fire you.

Everyone depends on you too much,
Max. You run Laurie Kidd's career.

I run her car...?

I run her career?
I run her errands.

What?

I'm a gofer, Steve.

I'm sorry. I don't understand.

A gofer.

I go for booze, pizza,
dog biscuits, guys.

Whatever Laurie Kidd wants.

I'm the lowest guy
on the totem pole.

I don't even qualify
to be a roadie.

But Jennifer said that...

I lied to her, Steve.

Oh, Max.

Well...

I just couldn't tell her I came out
to L.A. to score big and struck out.

Especially after her
mother married a lawyer.

Please don't tell her.

But, Max, she wouldn't care.

She wouldn't care! You're her father.
She loves you and she needs you.

- No, she doesn't.
- Yes, she does.

She needs a father
who can provide for her,

send her to the right schools,
so she can meet the right people.

Look, I know. I got to take
better care of her, but...

Oh, damn.

Is that Laurie Kidd?

Oh, it's either Laurie, her
manager, or her producer.

Excuse me.

Yeah?

Yeah, I'm coming.

Listen, I got to go.

- Uh, can we continue this?
- Yes.

- Give me 20 minutes.
- Absolutely. I'll be in the lobby.

Great.

I was sure I made
those three reservations.

I am sorry, Frank. Really I am.

Phil, you've been begging my
pardon for an hour now. I forgive you.

Let's go to bed.

Of course, Frank.
I'm almost done.

Unh.

Phil, three razors
for one weekend?

Oh, this is my top of the line,

and this is my backup in case
there's a problem with that one,

and this one is just in case of
earthquake or citywide power failure.

We Prestwicks are
a prudent people.

That's one way to describe you.

Phil, will you please go to bed?

Oh, of course, Frank.

You know, Frank, this could
be a blessing in disguise.

Sharing a room, we'll
have ample opportunity

for in-depth discussions of
what we learn at this conference.

I can't wait.

Phil!

Oh, I cannot go to sleep
without the television, Frank.

Oh, no.

Yes.

Frank, please, I can't
sleep without the TV.

Frank!

Hey, I thought I'd
never see you again.

Look, Sister, I don't
have much time,

so I want you to get a
message to Jennifer.

- Is everything okay?
- Everything's fine. Just fine.

- Just listen, all right?
- All right.

Now look, Sister, ah.

I might not get back home
to Chicago for a while,

but tell Jenny
everything will be okay.

What do you mean, Max?

I mean, I'm going to
take care of her, Sister.

She'll have
everything she needs.

Forget this counselor you sent her
to. She'll have her own shrink, the best.

Some hotshot who'll make
sure she comes out of this thing

- without psychological trauma.
- Slow down.

She's going to be somebody,
Sister, not some bum like her old man.

You're not making any sense. I
don't know what you're saying.

- Are you Max Donovan?
- Yeah.

You're under arrest for the
murder of Johnny D'Angelo.

- You have the right to remain silent.
- What's going on?

It's okay. Just tell Jenny
what I said. You tell her.

Tell her.

Oh, when the saints

Go marching in

Saints go marching in

Phil, your breakfast
is getting cold.

When the saints go marching in

Phil, are you almost
finished with your shower?

I can't hear you, Frank. Hold
on a minute. I'm almost finished.

Oh, when the saints
Go marching in

Ahem.

Hello?

Yes, Steve.

Max has been arrested?

For murder?

Look, I'll meet you in the
lobby. I'll be right down.

Phil, I have to go
out for a little while.

Will you cover for
me at the conference?

- What?
- Thanks. I'll see you later.

Frank? Did you say something?

Frank?

Frank?

It's been a long time, Max.

It sure has, Father.

That roof I put on the
rectory, it hasn't blown off?

Or leak or rattle.
We're very snug.

Guess what? Ten more
minutes and you're out of here.

What are you talking about?

Well, the officer told us
that this Johnny D'Angelo

was killed between
9:30 and 10:00 in Malibu.

Yeah, and you were with me. So
I'm your alibi and you're a free man.

No.

Look, I appreciate this,
but I already confessed.

I killed Johnny D'Angelo.

- What? No, you didn't.
- Max!

Yeah, I did.

Johnny D'Angelo was
Laurie's latest creep.

He thought running around with Laurie
gave him the right to step on people,

and he was always on my case.

Last night he started riding me,
and I had enough. I killed him.

Max! He didn't, Frank. He
couldn't have. He was with me.

What's this all about, Max?

You heard me, I killed him.

Look, I got to go.

Look, Max.

Look, I don't know what's
going on with you, all right,

but I know you
didn't kill anybody.

Goodbye.

Frank, we can't let
Max do this to himself.

I think he's going to take the blame
for whoever committed the murder,

and probably for a lot of money.

For Jennifer.

You know, he practically
told me before he got busted.

But who would he do this for?

Last night he got a
call on his beeper.

It was either Laurie Kidd,
her manager, or her producer,

so it's got to be one of them.

Well, for Jennifer's sake,
we'd better find the real killer.

I think we ought to pay a
visit to a rock star's home.

- Sounds like a party.
- Hmm.

Nobody can hear us.

Boy, you better settle down

Listen to me, baby
I'm not playing around

You show me no consistency

You change your
colors constantly

That's them.

He turned into a
stranger on me overnight

If that's the way You're
gonna treat me, baby

If that's the way I
don't want to play

If that's the way You're
gonna treat me, baby

If that's the way I
don't want to play

First I get the best of you

And then I get to
see the rest of you

You're not all you claim to be

I want someone
who's there for me

You have the right intention
But you never follow through

I can't get your attention
When you haven't got a clue

If that's the way You're
gonna treat me, baby

If that's the way I
don't want to play

Wait a minute!

Take five, guys.

What, I pay you
jerks to hang out?

I lip synch, you lip synch.

Laurie, we can't lip synch.

- We haven't cut the vocal track yet.
- No.

Moe! You're supposed to
be my manager. Handle this.

Hey, Laurie, be reasonable.

Moe, this is crazy.

Hey, guys, for me, make
believe there's a soundtrack.

I mean, do something,
anything. Come on, hey?

Hey, just for me, hey?

Frank, that guy, didn't we see him
at the police station visiting Max?

Stay here. I'm going to
go have a talk with him.

You,

in the kitchen.

Okay.

About the party,

I want those spicy chicken wings
and those little miniature egg rolls

and lots of sushi.

Excuse me. What
are you talking about?

Well, aren't you the caterer?

Why would I be the caterer?

I don't know. All my
caterers dress up.

You know, it's like a
theme or something.

Bullfighters or
ex-presidents, clowns.

You for real?

Absolutely.

Yeah?

I'm not here on official
business, though, so don't worry.

That's okay. I'm kind
of into this sort of thing.

Yeah, I figure if there is a God, he
made me, so he must like who I am.

And if there isn't
a God, why worry?

Just party and forget it.

- That's an interesting philosophy.
- Thanks.

So, um, why are you here?

Well, Max Donovan
is a friend of mine

and I know that he didn't
kill Johnny D'Angelo,

and I was kind of hoping that maybe
you could help me find out who did.

Yeah? Well, all I know is
Max Donovan confessed,

and if he was here
right now, I'd kill him.

Johnny D'Angelo
was the love of my life.

Excuse me. I'm rehearsing.

Are you with the Madonna tour?

No, I'm Father Dowling.

I hope those don't have
any sentimental value.

They're not mine.

They belong to that
jerk, Johnny D'Angelo.

I can't get rid of his
junk quick enough.

You didn't like Mr. D'Angelo?

He ripped Laurie off.

Emotionally and financially,
he squeezed her dry.

Hey, I loved the
guy. I really did.

I saw you at the police
station this morning.

You were visiting Max Donovan.

So? He works for me.

So I don't think Max Donovan
killed Johnny D'Angelo.

Look, Father,
Max is a great guy.

And I'm sure you're a great
priest, but Max did confess.

From his mouth to God's
ear, you know what I mean?

Yes, I know he confessed, but
he could be covering for someone.

Where were you when
Mr. D'Angelo was murdered?

Where was I? That's
none of your business.

- Now how did you get in here?
- The front door was open.

Oh, yeah? Close
it on your way out.

Goodbye.

So does Laurie always
treat you guys like that?

No. Sometimes
she's really nasty.

They need you back at the
studio to lay down a backup track.

Sister Stephanie, this is Ron
Baylor, Laurie's record producer.

- Hi.
- Meet you there, 15 minutes.

Look, Laurie doesn't like her
caterers hanging out with the guys.

Maybe you could make
a bean dip or something.

Heh, nice guy.

He's all right, really.

He'll be a lot better now
that Johnny D'Angelo's dead.

Yeah. Johnny wanted Laurie
to make him her producer.

Wait a minute, man.
Kenny's out of town.

We can't lay track
without piano.

Great. Wait a minute.
Who do we know who plays?

- He does.
- Hmm?

Father Dowling, this is Pete and
Andy. These are Laurie's backup.

Nice to meet you.

You sight read?

Well, yes.

Excellent. Let's go.

Steve...

Frank, Ron Baylor is going to be
there. He's Laurie's record producer.

Johnny D'Angelo was
trying to get rid of him.

All right.

Fellas,

you really think that Laurie
would have fired Ron Baylor?

Laurie paid a lot of
attention to Johnny's opinion.

Anybody that Johnny didn't
like, Laurie fired, just like that.

You didn't hear it from us.

Johnny was just getting
around to Baylor and Parker.

So they were about
to lose their jobs?

Unless Laurie lost Johnny, yeah.

But she was crazy about him.

She was,

but she'd caught him
stepping out on her.

With who?

Her dancers, all of 'em,

alphabetically.

Mr. Baylor?

Can I hear them, too?

- You want to hear them?
- Yeah.

Okay.

You're gonna treat me,
baby If that's the way

Where's Father Dowling's piano?

It's an electric piano and it's
being fed directly into our 24-track.

Listen.

We keep the vocals and
the music on separate tracks.

That way when we do the
final mix, we've got more control.

Oh, I get it. I see.

Sister, I'm sorry about before.

I didn't realize that
you were a real nun.

Ah, don't worry about it.

So Laurie seems kind of upset
about her boyfriend being killed.

She is.

How about you? It
must have been a shock.

More like a present.

Look, Sister, everybody
knows I despised

the way Johnny D'Angelo
was treating Laurie.

Yeah, I heard that.

Baby, if that's the way

So, uh, just out of curiosity,

where were you when
Johnny got killed?

Right here with Laurie,

recording.

Can you prove that?

Heh, sister, I don't
have to prove it.

Max Donovan confessed.

But if I did, I could.

How?

The date and the
time are on the tape

that Laurie and I
recorded that night.

They're logged automatically.

Do you have the tape?

Yeah, sure. Of course.

We were getting ready
to do the music video.

Boy, I'd sure love
to hear that tape.

Yeah, you and every DJ in town.

Okay, guys. Thank you
very much. That's a wrap.

Very nice. Nice work.

Okay.

Pretty nice playing, Father.

- Great job, Father.
- Thank you.

Father, if you ever need a
job as a side man, you call me.

Hmm.

- Frank.
- Mm-hm.

- Come here.
- What?

What are you doing?

According to Baylor, he and
Laurie Kidd were here recording

the night that Johnny
D'Angelo was killed.

So if we could just find her
tape with the time logged on it,

we'll know if that's true.

Somebody's coming.

Okay.

- Got it.
- Let's get out of here.

Hey, you two!

Stop! Stop!

Going my way, Father?

Sister, the way you
were asking questions,

I had a feeling you'd want to
know about how this works.

I invented this system.

Now, when the tape starts,
the date is flashed here

and the time is
continuously coded.

Boy, you better settle down

That's Laurie.

She's a cinch for a
Grammy, don't you think?

- Very nice.
- Thank you.

Sorry to have bothered you.

Oh, no problem.

Father, Sister, go in peace.

Mr. Baylor, if you
don't mind me asking,

why do you carry a gun?

A lot of strange
people out there, Sister.

You're telling us.

Come, Sister.

- Thank you.
- Mm-hm.

You're gonna treat me, baby

Hello? STEVE: Hi, Frank.

It's been busy.

Steve, I was talking to Marie,

finding out how
things are in Chicago.

How are they getting
along without you?

They're managing.

Good.

Frank, listen. You
know, I've been thinking.

Baylor didn't play us that tape
just because he's a nice guy.

No,

he was trying to
prove his whereabouts,

- and Laurie's, too.
- Right.

So, if they have an alibi,

then it's got to be the
manager, Moe Parker.

Hmm, it looks that way.

Frank, you know, Laurie Kidd
is shooting her music video,

some place called
Venice right now.

So?

So, haven't you always wanted to
see how music videos are made?

I'll meet you in the lobby.

Frank?

Where are you?

Yeah, keep rolling
the bikes forward.

Ladies, this next section, I'd
like four simple walks downstage

Five, six, seven, eight.

Okay?

And again. Turn.

- Some operation, huh?
- Yeah.

There she is.

I think I'm going
to go talk to her.

One on one, huh? Go
ahead, I'll have a look around.

Keep the crowd back there.

Hi.

Hi.

You mind if I hang out?

No, I'd love the company.

You know, I've been
thinking about you.

- You have?
- Yeah.

I can't understand why
anybody would want to be a nun.

I'm pretty happy.

You know, to tell you the truth,

I can't understand why anybody
would want to be famous.

It just happened. I won an
amateur contest and here I am.

No kidding?

Don't you ever want to bust out?

You know, change your name, take
off, just live life like a real person?

Do you?

No way.

Laurie Kidd, superstar. I've
been years in the making.

Besides, Ron Baylor and
Moe Parker would drop dead.

- They'd probably just go broke.
- Playback.

Hey, hey, Laurie.

Hey, we've got to talk.

Nice day, eh, heh.

- Why don't you take a walk?
- See you later.

Listen, I want to hear
more about this nun stuff.

Come on, one, two, three, four.

Right, right. Come on!

And again! Yeah,
that's it. Okay.

Well, Ricardo says we
really messed up last night.

"We" messed up? What,
he wasn't part of the deal?

Yeah, yeah, sure he was,

but, uh, he says
he's done his part.

Yeah? So, where's
Johnny's stuff?

Well, Ricardo still has it.
I'm meeting with him now, eh?

He said he'd give it to me, eh?

Yeah. He'd better, that rat.

All right, Laurie. Well,
I'll be back soon. All right?

First team in.

Frank, listen.

I just heard Laurie and
Parker talking about a deal

they had going last
night that got messed up.

Johnny D'Angelo
was killed last night.

Yeah, they were talking
about Johnny's stuff.

Hey, maybe we're onto
something. What did they say?

They said that this guy Ricardo,
who was in on the deal with them,

he has Johnny's stuff and
Parker's going to go pick it up now.

Do you think this has
anything to do with the murder?

I don't know, but I'd
sure like to find out.

Steve.

There he goes.

Now, Sister.

This is no good, Frank.
He's gonna spot us.

We gotta find a way to blend in.

Blend in? With them?

Yeah, you just gotta know
how to dress like a native.

Frank.

I almost didn't recognize you.

Likewise, I'm sure.

- Did you catch up with him?
- Yeah, he went into that bar.

Ricardo's?

Steve, isn't that the guy who's
giving Parker Johnny D'Angelo's stuff?

Yes.

I wonder what's
in that briefcase?

- You really want to know?
- Of course.

I'll go find out.

Hey, you!

Come back here!

Come on!

Somebody stop her!

Frank!

I think you made
a clear getaway.

- "Clean" getaway.
- Clean getaway.

Now let's take a
look at Johnny's stuff.

Freeze!

L.A.P.D.

Thank God.

Don't thank Him yet, buddy.

I'm going to have to ask
you two to come downtown.

Okay, we checked you out.

You're Father Dowling,
she's Stephanie Oskowski,

a.k.a. Sister Steve.

Sergeant Clancy says "Hi" and
"Why aren't you sightseeing?"

That sounds like Clancy.

Listen, I'm really sorry
we wrecked your stakeout.

So am I.

We had surveillance on
Ricardo's bar for a month

trying to get his supplier
and grab a big score.

Well, at least we got one of his
distributors. Your friend, Moe Parker.

It's better than nothing.

Excuse me.

You had Ricardo's
staked out last night?

Sure.

And Moe Parker was there?

Yeah, that's when he
set up his drug deal.

We have pictures of
him coming and going.

Anyway, unless you want a tour
of the station, you're free to go.

Thank you, Detective Miller.

I'll say a novena for you.

My mother used to do
that. Thank you, Sister.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye.

So, what are you
thinking, Frank?

Moe Parker was at Ricardo's
at the time of the murder,

Max Donovan was with you.

So that leaves
either Laurie Kidd

or the producer with the gun,
Ron Baylor, as the suspects.

But they're each other's alibi.

What if one of them's
lying to protect the other?

How do we find out
which one is the killer?

You know, it occurs to me that Ron
Baylor wanted us to hear that tape.

So he could prove he and
Laurie were in the studio.

Yeah.

What we need is a recording
expert to listen to the tape.

Let's get the Greenhouse Effect.

- The who?
- Pete and Andy.

Oh, oh, Pete and Andy, yeah.

If that's the way

You're gonna treat me, baby

If that's the way

Is there some way that could have
been recorded someplace else?

No, I looked at
the tape. It's coded.

Yeah. Anyway, Laurie signed in.

Well, she and the band
could have signed in anytime.

The band laid down their tracks
and left before Laurie showed up.

Laurie doesn't sing
with the band here?

No, no. She prefers to
record after they've gone.

Wait a minute.

Laurie doesn't have
to record in this studio.

Is there someplace
else she could record?

She does have
recording gear at home.

She uses it for demos and
recording other material.

In other words, the band
could record in one place

and she could record in another?

Yeah, she could,
but she never did.

Would it be possible
just to hear the vocals?

Sure.

Here's her vocal track.

Sounds like every other vocal
she's recorded in this studio.

Could you turn that
up louder, please?

Yeah.

If that's the way

You're gonna treat me, baby

If that's the way

Frank, that sounds like...

It is.

- Ron, can we get going here?
- All right. Great.

Everybody, we're ready for a
take. Everybody on your first mark.

- Oh, just a minute.
- Vicky! Vicky!

We are ready to roll here.

I need another minute.

Just one. You want
this right, don't you?

- Can we do this?
- Yeah, sure, Laurie.

- One second, okay?
- Thank you.

All right.

- Everybody, stand by.
- Stand by.

Great.

Laurie, I need you to get back
here between these two guys

on your mark by
the top of the chorus.

I know what I'm doing.

Good, because it's
important that we do this right.

I'll do it my way, all right?

Laurie, do it right,
it'll look better.

Just go to hell!

Hey, I didn't mean
anything by this.

He never loved you!

- Take it easy.
- He never loved any of you!

- Calm down!
- I'm the only one he loved!

Take it easy!
Everybody, take a break.

Just calm down! Let's
take a walk! Come on, now.

You just take it easy,
girl. Settle down.

Just take it easy.
No, no, listen.

For God's sake, just calm down.
Just take it easy. You gotta relax.

She's nuts, she's just nuts.

Nuts. FRANK: Really.

- I hate them all!
- You don't hate me, do you?

- I hate you worst of all.
- After what I did for you?

Well, I would say that's
the height of ingratitude.

- Wouldn't you, Sister?
- Absolutely.

Ron, what are
they talking about?

Let me take care
of this, Laurie.

Just like you took care
of providing Laurie's alibi

after she killed
Johnny D'Angelo?

Got Max Donovan
to take the fall for her.

Oh, this is ridiculous. Come on.

When Laurie called you to tell you
that she killed Johnny in a jealous rage,

you knew what to do, didn't you?

You called Max on his beeper
and you talked him into confessing.

You offered him a lot of money,

but there was still the
problem of Laurie's whereabouts

at the time of the murder.

Ron.

They don't know what
they're talking about.

Oh, really?

You had Laurie make a
vocal track at her house,

and then you said she was with you
in the studio at the time of the murder.

You managed to fake the
time code on Laurie's tape.

And you were in such a
hurry to put the tracks together,

you didn't notice that her microphone
picked up the sound of the surf

from the pounding on the
beach outside of her house.

If that's the way

You're gonna treat me, baby

There it is.

Laurie killed Johnny D'Angelo

and you tried to protect her.

They know.

They know I killed him.
But you don't understand!

You don't know why! He
was going to leave me!

Listen, I've got an idea. Why
don't you and I go away, okay?

We'll pick a place on
the map and we'll go!

Laurie! I'll take
care of everything.

Father, Sister, what can I say?
You're right about everything.

Laurie killed Johnny
and, as usual,

I cleaned up her mess,
just like I'm doing now.

Give me the tape.

- Give me the tape!
- All right!

Come on, let's go.

Just give it up, Baylor!

Did you hear it all, Miller?

Every word.

Your body mike worked fine.

I'm not wearing a body mike.

But I am, Miss Kidd.

I borrowed one
from your sound man.

Father Dowling suggested
we listen in on all this,

and it's a good thing we did.

Miss Kidd, you're under arrest
for the murder of Johnny D'Angelo.

Mr. Baylor, you're under arrest
as an accessory after the fact.

Take them away.

All right, come on.
- Here we go.

Father Dowling,
Sister Stephanie,

I can't tell you how much
we appreciate your help.

You do?

You mean you don't think

we're interfering
with your police work?

Hey, this is California.

We've had a cop who's become
a best-selling crime writer,

a rock singer who's
become a mayor,

and a governor who was an
actor and then became president.

If the Pope walked up and
started dusting for fingerprints,

nobody would blink.

Maybe we should stay.

Our plane leaves in two hours.

- Come on, I'll give you a lift.
- Oh, thanks.

Ron Baylor offered me a
million bucks for a confession.

A million bucks.

Cold hard cash. Think about what
that could have done for Jennifer.

Max, Jennifer doesn't
need a million bucks.

What she needs is a father.

Steve, I don't know
how to be a father.

Well, then it's
time you learned.

Go on back to Chicago,
get yourself a steady job,

and start being a
real father to Jennifer.

That's all she wants, Max.

You two are tough.

All right.

Tell her I'll see
her this weekend.

- Tell her yourself.
- There's the phone.

Go on.

Go.

Hey, we're going to be late!

- Phil?
- Sorry we're late, Phil.

We are not going
to make that flight!

I even packed your suitcases!

- Come on, we'll make it.
- Come on.

Frank?

It's the VIP treatment, Phil.

- Why?
- It's a long story.

You know, officer,
since you're here,

my camera was stolen from
this spot the day we arrived.

I can give you a description.

It was an older Konica
with a flash attachment,

35 millimeter,
single lens reflex.

Phil, get in the car.

It had the shoulder strap.

It was a colorful shoulder strap.
- Oh, Phil!

Pictures of Los Angeles?

That's right, Marie.
This is Malibu.

The Venice Pier, Hollywood sign.

Wait a minute, these
are all postcards.

Don't you have any
pictures you did yourself?

Actually, no.

How come?

Well, I misplaced my camera,

and with the meetings
and all the seminars,

plus the fact that I had to
deliver Father Dowling's paper

on the responsibilities
of parish leadership

because he wasn't
there to deliver it himself,

I never left the hotel.

It's all right, Phil.

You can do all the sightseeing
you want at next year's conference.

It's in Juneau, Alaska.
