[TIRES SCREECH]

Sorry about this.

Hooker, give me a break.

Circus burgers
three days in a row.

You know how I feel about
eating too much meat.

Don't worry, Romano.

Circus burgers
are 98% preservatives.

Besides, Chrissy thinks
she has a chance

of winning a bicycle.

See? We got one stamp already.

Two more,
and the bike is hers.

Nobody wins those things.

Hey, I know that
and you know that.

But I got a daughter
who has faith

in the Circus Burger clown,
so eat, Romano, eat.

[BEEP BEEP BEEP]

FEMALE DISPATCHER:
All units and Four-Adam-30.

A possible kidnapping
in progress

at Tahiti Way
and Seventh Street.

A woman screaming
in a light-brown 1981 Cutlass.

License One Adam Paul 0-6-3.

[SIREN WAILING]

[TIRES SQUEAL]

[SQUAD CAR APPROACHES]

Check the girl.

[SIREN WAILING]

Four-Adam-30
requesting additional units

and an ambulance
at Marina Park Drive

and Tahiti Way.

A possible 187 is involved.

Four-Adam-30, 187.

The m.o. of the Surfside Killer
is verified.

The victim

is policewoman Ann McCray.

[TIRES SCREECH]

[TIRES SCREECH]

[SIREN SHUTS OFF]

[CAR ENGINE STARTS]

I'm... sorry.

Left, right, left.

Left, right, left, right, left.

Left--

Let me bring you up-to-date.

Lieutenant Franks
at Division just called.

Ballistics on the tape

confirmed our own policewoman,

Ann McCray, off duty,
while shopping at the marina,

was the Surfside Killer's
fifth victim.

Do we have
a better description of him?

No. The best they have to date

is what you gave them
this morning, Hooker.

What about the tape he used
to bind the victims, Captain?

Any leads we can follow there?

Nah. It's grip tape.

Same kind that's used for
all forms of rackets--

tennis, badminton, squash,
that sort of thing.

They're checking the markets,
but the volume is enormous.

They are over
600 sports stores in the city.

The suspect's victims
are all young, blonde,

and murdered in the marina.
All but one of them live there.

You'd think that
Franks and his team

could turn something in
on that by now.

Well, they've built a clue file,

and the main hunt-to-date
is to find one male name

that connects
to all the victims.

There's been
an acceleration of the killings.

After the first victim,
Virginia Leland,

it was a month
before the second.

Between two and three,
three weeks.

Two weeks to the fourth.

And four days later,
our top female instructor,

off duty,
shopping in the marina.

Top instructor and best friend.

Now, you shouldn't be here,
Stacy. It's not necessary.

I'm a police officer, Dad,
just like Ann was.

And I wish there was something
I could do to help.

We all want to help, darling,
and we're going to.

Division has the case,

but they've got to open up
their information to us.

You're right, Hooker. I'll call
and pull the chain on them,

remind them
it's a department problem.

But right now,
it's up to this precinct

to start making arrangements
for a police funeral.

I know what Ann would want,
and I'd like to handle it.

Okay.

Color guard,

ten-hut.

Forward arms.

Half-right face.

Ready...

aim...

fire.

Aim.

Fire.

Aim.

Fire.

Atten-hut.

Half-left face.

Present... arms.

Color guard, take your posts.

Order pull.

Parade hut.

Goodbye, Ann.

Stacy, we're gonna nail him.

I've worked up a theory
about the case,

and I'm gonna
talk to Division about it.

I got a call from Division
this morning.

What about?

They made a computer run

on all the policewomen
in the department.

I'm one of four
who fit the profile

of the women
that were killed.

Lieutenant Franks
asked if I'd volunteer

for a decoy plan.

You're not ready
for something like that, Stacy.

You're too inexperienced.

It's my chance to help,
and I want to.

It's too dangerous. Forget it.

Hooker,
Stacy was trained for it.

She got the badge

because she was willing
to accept any assignment

where she would be
most useful.

All right.
That's enough, Romano.

Look, all the girls
who have been killed are my age.

This guy doesn't
seem to be looking for someone

with ten years of experience
on the force.

Stacy, the day you were born,

your father was somewhere
on a narcotics stakeout

and couldn't be reached.

On the first day of your life,
I was the first one to hold you.

In addition to
your inexperience,

I gotta tell you,

I can't let you
go out on the street

and be the target
for some deranged animal.

I appreciate your concern,
Hooker,

but I have to do it
for Ann and for myself.

[ENGINE STARTS]

Now look, Franks,
my objections

may very well have to do
with the fact

that Stacy is my daughter,
but you just--

What the hell's going on here?
Lady's still in training.

You stay out of this one,
Hooker.

A decoy plan has to two damn
many things that could go wrong.

Five women murdered, Hooker.

Now, we've evaluated the case
and decided that a decoy plan

is about the only thing
that we have left.

Stacy Sheridan is one of four
that fit the victim profile.

She will be wired, and
she will be covered by a man.

Pardon me if I'm not impressed,
Lieutenant.

I've worked with your squad
before, remember?

Surveillance has a lot of
serious drawbacks.

The chief has approved the plan
and her selection.

Hey, at least try my theory

about the first victim--
Virginia Leland.

She was the only one
who didn't live in the marina.

The acceleration of killings

might very well suggest
that he knew her.

She was his catalyst.

Hooker, we've turned
that first victim inside out.

Well, then go back over it.
Look for a new angle.

I'm not going back over
anything.

The decision has been made.

Good day, gentlemen.

I'll say one thing.

That lieutenant from Division

has really put
some talent together.

For a fashion show maybe.
Not to nail a psycho killer.

I guess I knew
this time was coming

from the day Stacy
joined the force.

Well, you can stop it.
You can go over his head.

Best I can do is
to turn you loose, Hooker,

to follow up on your theory
about the first victim.

Now, look, I'll cut
your radio calls to the bone.

You could appeal it.

I can't
because she is my daughter.

Because whoever else
replaces her

would be
somebody else's daughter.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

There she goes.
Totally out of our hands.

Hooker, the decoy situation--

sometimes it can't be ideal.

I think they're doing
the right thing.

That's the problem
around here, junior.

Too many people that don't know
are doing the thinking.

We're gonna follow up
my theory on Virginia Leland.

[STARTS ENGINE]

Janet?

Who was that guy?

Why do you have to
keep on doing this to me?

I thought you had a lesson
to give.

In my own home?

Should I check into a motel
next time?

It's over, Richard.
Can't you realize that?

It's been over for months.

[♪♪♪]

Hooker, these Circus burgers
are killing me.

Don't complain. One more stamp,
and the bike is ours.

If we win anything else
other than the bike,

it's mine, okay?

Including
the Hawaiian vacation.

You want it? You got it.

What are you doing here, Hooker?

I just like to be
at the hub

of an undercover operation
like this.

It's so exciting.

we're taking good care of
your captain's daughter.

Thought never crossed my mind.

This is the monitoring station
for the four women.

Officer Brooks
is at the Seaside complex.

Taylor's here at the Vintage.

Allan's at the International.

And your policewoman,
Stacy Sheridan,

is at the Marina Club.

All your equipment working,
fail safe and all that?

You want to listen, Hooker?
Stacy Sheridan's frequency.

I do like it.
It's so beautiful.

MAN: All right.
Pretty place for pretty people.

Nice people.
That's more important.

Oh, yes. Well, how's
your first day been so far?

Well, unpacking.
You know how that can be.

Hey, it'd be real nice for me
to come up and give you a hand.

Oh. Well, that's
very generous of you.

Yeah.
But thanks, anyway.

Oh, I insist.

Well, so do I.
Thanks, anyway.

Goodbye.

All right, Hooker.
You've seen, you've heard.

Does everything
meet with your approval?

It never did.
And I haven't changed my mind.

Nice talking to you,
Lieutenant.

You got that confidential
computer file number

on the first victim,
didn't you?

That's not all I got, junior.

I got the frequency
they're using.

So we can eavesdrop
on the eavesdroppers?

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

STACY: Girl sure can
be kept busy around here.

Keep an eye on that manager.
He's a real letch.

Tell my cover man, Gordon,
I'm headed for the pool.

It's a beautiful day,

and there's not sense
wasting all these good rays.

Besides, we may bag ourselves
more than just a suntan,

huh, Lieutenant?

At least we can hear
what's going on.

[STARTS ENGINE]

I've got Officer Sheridan
at the pool area now.

Suggest we do a rundown
on that apartment manager

just to be sure.

Hi. I'm Beth Arnold.
You must be new around here.

I just moved in.
I'm Stacy Williams.

Well, the sun is bright,
the air is clean,

and you can get
plenty of exercise.

Speaking of which.
Hi, Richard.

Hey, Beth.
How's that backhand?

Working on it
every spare moment.

Meet a prospective student.

Stacy Williams, Richard Britten.

Hi.

Hi.
First lesson's free.

Well, what do you think?

And he's only one of
the tennis pros around here.

He's not really my type.

Personally, I'm a leg woman.

How about you?

Well, I like a man
with a good...

[STATIC]

I wouldn't even try to guess.

Get me the address of that bar

where Virginia Leland's husband
hangs out.

You mean from
our acquired computer file?

462 Washington.

[♪♪♪]

[JUKEBOX MUSIC PLAYING]

Bartender,
I'm looking for Carl Leland.

I heard he hangs out here.

We serve drinks, sir,
not information.

You want a drink?

I want Carl Leland.

Buzz off, cop.

Hey, look, friend.
I'm in a hurry.

I don't have time or patience
for your smart mouth.

I don't care what you have.

Are you crazy?

Now where's Carl Leland?

That's him back there.

Mr. Leland?

Last time I talked to the cops
was when my wife was killed.

That's exactly what we want to
talk to you about, Mr. Leland.

Look, I've gone through
all that before... I think.

Nothing's too clear anymore.

Too much booze
will do that to you.

I know.

Jimmy, another one?

We know you've been through
all this

with the detectives before.

Lot of them.
I told them everything.

As a matter of fact,
at this point,

with all the booze
I've put down me since,

they can probably
tell you more than I can.

According to our records,

you were getting a divorce
from your wife.

Not my idea.

You see, I knew
she was having a fling,

and she was into flings.

She had done practically
every pair of pants

that came her way.

But I always thought she'd
come back to me like before.

Or at least I hoped she would.

When did you last,
uh, see her or talk to her?

I-I guess it was, uh,

when we were supposed to
go to the lawyer's office.

She called to cancel.

Cancel? Why?

No point to the meeting,
anyways. It was over.

But she made the appointment.

She must have had
a reason to cancel.

It was no earth-shaker.
Ha ha ha ha.

She had a tennis lesson.

Tennis lesson? Where?

I don't know.
Somewhere in the marina.

Did you tell that
to the detectives?

I don't remember,
but I doubt it.

You see, I realized
after her last fling...

she wasn't coming back.

She was never coming back.

Britten, C3, please.

WOMAN: Yes, Mr. Britten?
We have one call for you.

Marian Parker
confirms the 5:30 lesson.

Yes, thank you. Anything else?

There is one call
for your wife. A Mr. Durrell.

He can't make it for lunch,

but he'll be at the
Harbor Lounge for cocktails.

Shall I hold that message?

No. Uh, I'll give it to her.
Thank you.

Stacy.
You're in luck.

I am?

Greg, Stacy. Stacy, Greg.

Hello.

I just got an emergency
phone call from my boss.

Something about
an inventory foul-up,

and we have the court
in five minutes.

You can use my racket.

Okay.

There you go.
I'll call you.

Bye.

I've lost Stacy.

She went into the garage,
but she's not at her car.

Damn.

How could they lose her?

Experience, junior.
Stacy's lack of it.

[SIREN WAILING]

[GUNSHOT]

[TIRES SQUEAL]

Woman down.
Repeat--woman down.

Suspect's in a blue Chevy

headed toward
the Surf Avenue exit.

I just saw him leave.
That way.

[SIREN WAILING]

Four-Adam-30
in pursuit of blue Chevy

heading north on Samoa.

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[SIREN STOPS]

Romano, no.
Those people need help.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

Greg. Hi.

How are you doing?

It's not that Beth and I
were that close or anything.

It's just that
it was so sudden. So quick.

I understand.

It's not only the shock of it,
but it's someone you know.

I've been there, too.

[DOOR CLOSES]

She's inside, safe and sound.

[WATER RUNNING]

[BUZZER BUZZES]

Just a minute.

Who is it?

Your boyfriend
and, uh, your dad.

Hi.

Oh, yellow roses.

They're my favorite.
How did you know?

I'll never tell.
Bring in the food, Dad.

Not bad.

Think I'll change my profession
to become an airline stewardess.

Circus burgers.

You said on the phone you were
taking me out to dinner.

Oh, I said
I was buying you dinner.

There's a subtle difference.

There is nothing subtle
about a Circus burger.

The prizes they're offering
are strictly blackmail.

Oh, please, Romano.
Nobody ever wins those prizes.

That's what everybody says

all the way
to the Circus Burger stand.

Listen, honey,
I'm here to tell you

not to take any chances.

I'm working on an idea

to zero in on the killer
before he zeros in on you.

You know I didn't
volunteer for this assignment

to take
an on-the-job vacation.

Well, after what happened today,

we all wish
you were on vacation.

Look, we've learned that
the first victim

had a tennis lesson
somewhere in the marina

on the day she was killed.

It's an idea
I'm working on tonight,

and I better get to it.

Romano, you stay here
until morning.

Hooker.

Your dad thinks
it's a good idea, too.

No arguments.

Well... where do I sleep?

There are three rooms.

The bedroom, the bathroom,
and the living room.

Uh-huh.

You have a choice of two.

Well, I am on duty.

And... it is a nice view.

But how am I supposed to
sleep on that?

Well, I know it
may go back a while,

but do you remember
the fetal position?

Filthy slut.

[♪♪♪]

Sleeping like a pretzel
is one thing.

But sleeping like a pretzel

when a Circus burger
does flip-flops in your belly

is beyond the call of duty.

Who said police work was easy?

So how did
the tennis connection go?

Well, I got it narrowed down
to 23 tennis pros

in the marina area.

Wow.

The remaining 14,

eight fit
the physical description,

size, and build.

I talked to
the electronics guys

and got eight
bird-dog homing devices.

You've had a busy night.
What's the next step?

Next step is to convince
a hard-headed lieutenant

to spring for the manpower
to tail him.

Then we subpoena

each and every one of
their appointment books.

And the place to start
is where Stacy is working.

I hope you're there, guys,
'cause I just hit the jackpot.

I'm in the pro shop looking at
the appointment book.

Virginia Leland
had a lesson here

the same day
she was killed.

Uh-oh. I've got company.

It's the tennis pro.

I hope I can con him,
or I have a big problem.

Can I help you?

Here we go, Franks.

A rookie in over her head.

You better hope
she gets out of it.

You better
make some moves quick,

or I'm taking over here.

Gordon, move in.
She could be in trouble.

Maybe this is what
you were looking for.

Hold it.

No.

You hold it.

I'll blow her away.

Now you just get over here

and put your ugly face
flat on the floor.

I'm taking her with me.

You even try to follow me
out of here,

and this little tramp is dead.
You here me? Dead.

Attention all units
in the marina area.

[STARTS ENGINE]

[SIREN WAILING]

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

He's got her in his car--
a silver Mustang,

One Frank Michael Charlie
2-2-5.

I can't follow him on foot.

They're heading north on Samoa.

I would never have guessed
you're a policewoman.

Richard, just think about
what you're doing.

Shut up, Janet. Shut up.

[SQUAD CAR APPROACHES]

[HORNS BLARE]

That's him, isn't it?

Damn well better be.

What are you gonna do?

It's been too easy before.
Too quick.

This time, you're going to
have to suffer, Janet.

HOOKER: He's headed toward
Old Fort Wilson.

ROMANO: They're going into
the abandoned magazine tunnel.

[SIREN WAILING]

[TIRES SCREECH;
SIREN STOPS]

I'll take this one.

Stacy. Stacy.

Now you wait here, Janet.

You wait here and think about
how I'm going to kill you.

I'm not Janet,
but I can help you.

Shut up.

HOOKER: Stacy.

Hooker? Hooker,
he's coming after you.

Hooker?

Stacy, are you alone?

God, hurry. I don't see him.

You see him?

No.

HOOKER: Where are you, honey?
I'll get you out.

Hooker?

Romano? He knows this place.

Try and follow Stacy's voice
as best you can.

Romano, are you all right?

I'm okay. Sounds like
he may be coming your way.

[♪♪♪]

Hooker.

[YELLING]

Hold it.

It's all right, Stacy.

It's over now.

[SIREN WAILING]

[SIREN STOPS]

[♪♪♪]

Thanks, Hooker.

Romano.

Come on.

[♪♪♪]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Uh-oh. What did I do now?

Stacy, we're here because of
what you did yesterday.

Commendation from Division
for a job well done.

And signed by
Lieutenant Franks himself.

I really didn't expect this.

In fact, I don't deserve it.

Stacy, you were instrumental in
taking down the Surfside Killer.

Well, the truth is,
I made a lot of mistakes.

We all make mistakes.

You deserve it. Believe me.

What is this?
Something else for me?

No, no, no.
This is for my partner.

He and I had a deal.

Anything we won
on the Circus Burger contest

other than the bicycle
is yours.

And a deal is a deal.

And Chrissy didn't win
her bicycle, but you got this.

What? What is it?

You'll never believe
what it is. Take a look.

Five dozen Circus burgers.
Eat 'em and weep.

[♪♪♪]
