Original subtitles

This is my boss,

Jonathan hart, a self-made millionaire.

He's quite a guy.

This is Mrs. H. She's gorgeous.

She's one lady who knows how to take care of herself.

By the way, my name is Max.

I take care of both of them,

which ain't easy 'cause when they met,

it was murder.

[♪♪]

[Barks]

[Jennifer] Oh, Max.

You remember my cousin Betsy?

She's coming down from San Francisco

to spend a few weeks with us.

Thanks. Gee, that's great, Mrs. H.

Last time I saw that kid,

she was a roly-poly teenager,

always putting the touch on uncle Max for snack money.

Well, she's not a kid anymore.

In fact, she's a very wealthy young lady

since her father died.

She's coming down to attend

the Barry Grayson torso salon.

You ever heard of that?

Hey, I was reading about that in here.

Really?

Here it is.

You really gotta be loaded to get in that joint. See?

"Where the elite get petite."

Hmm.

"Vidalite. A liquid diet program

combined with aerobic gymnastic classes."

Apparently, she's been getting this vidalite through the mail,

and now she's coming down here

to join the aerobic gymnastic classes.

I'll get the guest room ready for her after lunch.

Great.

I guess it doesn't matter

how much this costs,

as long as it keeps her off those diet pills.

[♪♪]

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

That's fantastic. Four, five, six.

You're looking good. Come on and lose that weight.

I can see every inch coming off.

Okay, we're gonna go side to side.

Here we go. One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven.

Now get it. Oh.

Sometimes it goes the right way,

sometimes it goes the wrong way.

Okay, and one, two, three, four, five, six...

Marilyn, look at this.

An eight-page spread in the Beverly review.

Barry's a star.

Oh.

This is great.

Oh, Kathy, take over for Barry and send him in here, please.

Sure.

"Barry Grayson and his torso salon...

Fitness guru of the glitterati."

[Laughs]

"Plans for an exercise empire."

[Indistinct reading]

Ooh.

Huh?

Oh, what'd I tell you?

That press agent is worth his weight in gold.

Oh, his timing is great.

What was the reaction on the floor? Perfect.

They can't wait to invest their husband's money into it.

Ahh! [Laughs]

I knew I could take us to the top.

That's all in the packaging, of course.

My charisma and personality,

plus the vidalite plan and the exercise

equals success.

Uh, don't forget your silent partner.

You may be charismatic, Mr. Grayson,

but this is what they keep coming back for.

[♪♪]

They're here.

Darling, they're here.

Betsy.

Jenn, okay, where's the ice cream?

Hi, oh, thanks.

Welcome back.

You look marvelous.

Oh, I feel terrific,

much better than I felt in that dreadful hospital.

Oh, come on.

I'll never be able to forget

what you and Jonathan did to help me kick that habit.

Don't be silly. What's a family for?

[Jonathan] Is that my favorite cousin-in-law?

[Betsy] Oh, Jonathan. Whoo.

Whoo. Yeah.

She looks wonderful, huh? Doesn't she?

Yeah, how was your flight?

Gorgeous. Chicken a l'orange, beef burgundy...

Sit down.

Cherry cobbler, chocolate parfait.

I didn't touch a thing.

Good girl, because at 8:00

we have a lovely little supper planned.

Oh, what time is it? Oh, 7:30. I'm late.

Barry is very particular.

How many of those do you get to drink a day?

Four. But I get to add one more

when I start my exercise routine tomorrow.

I have heard the most wonderful things

about Barry Grayson.

I know you're gonna love him, jenn.

I'm gonna love him?

Oh, yeah, I want you to go with me for moral support.

Sure, what have I got to lose?

Don't remind me.

Isn't this terrific?

Oh, Audrey hepburn, eat your heart out.

[Both chuckle lightly]

[Disco music playing] [Man] Okay.

Five, six, seven, eight. Annie, oh, looking good.

I see a burrito in your recent past. Jumping Jacks.

And one, two, three, four,

five, six, seven...

Marcia, you can't phone in this workout.

Come on, you know better than that. Seven, eight.

Some of you ladies are wearing your weekends around your waistlines.

Running in place. Seven, eight.

And one, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four,

what are we here for?

Pain. Get 'em up. Pain. Hit it. Yeah.

Five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four...

Ah, what is it? I was really getting through to them up there.

I spoke with Gina halstead before class.

She's offered to host the investors reception at her house next week.

Ah, great, she's one of our biggest boosters.

If you were on her vidalite dosage,

you could boost the great depression.

Here's our guest list.

And I just thought of a welcome addition.

Ah, yeah, she, uh... she came in

with, uh, that young heiress from San Francisco,

Betsy bach, right?

Betsy's been on our special formula for about two weeks.

I have doubled her dose.

By next week, she'll be eager to invest.

Ah, and you think her friend might be willing to invest also?

[Clears throat] Her friend is Jennifer hart.

Uh-huh. Hm?

As in Mrs. Jonathan hart.

[Clears throat]

Hart industries.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

The only thing fat about her is her bank account.

But I think we could reduce that, don't you?

Certainly.

[Music stops] [Whoops]

[Betsy] Oh, hi, jenn.

You must have lost 10 pounds already.

God, I feel every ounce.

Come with me, I want you to meet Barry and Marilyn.

She's his manager. Marilyn.

Yes.

Hi. I want you to meet my favorite cousin, Jennifer hart.

Marilyn gann.

Very nice to meet you, Mrs. Hart.

Barry Grayson, Jennifer hart.

Welcome to torso salon. Thank you so much.

Betsy's absolutely crazy about vidalite.

Well, she's our first vidalite commuter,

and she is doing wonderfully.

I have to take your blood pressure.

Will you excuse us for a minute, Mrs. Hart?

Barry, why don't you show her around?

Of course, follow me. This way, Mrs. Hart.

Sit down here.

That was great, Marilyn.

Oh, Betsy, you may know

that torso is looking for investment money at the moment.

Yes, some of the girls had said that you're going national.

That's wonderful.

If we can get the necessary funds.

That's why we're having an investors reception next week.

Of course, we're hoping you'll be there.

Oh, wouldn't miss it. I really believe in Barry.

How nice.

I wonder if the, uh, harts would like to come too.

That is a great idea.

I know they would to love to be a part of this.

Leave it to me, Marilyn.

[♪♪]

[Jennifer] Oh, I cannot keep up with Betsy.

She's absolutely on the go from morning until night.

Yeah, she sure seems up,

and she's dropping all that weight.

Hmm. How long has it been now?

Oh, it's been about a week.

She's so cute.

Has she talked to you yet about investing in torso?

She has suggested that a couple of times.

I have a feeling that we're going to go

to some kind of reception this week.

I think so. If I make it.

I wish I had her energy.

Well, it is good to relax as well.

You think so? Mm-hm.

See, Barry is not the only one

with a plan designed on physical fitness.

Aw.

As long as you don't open a salon.

[Gasps]

[Sighs]

No.

[Disco music playing]

[Sighs]

They're ready for their rations.

Just a few more to go.

Yeah? [Knock on door]

Hi, Barry. Hi, Betsy, come on in.

Marilyn. Yes?

I know this sounds kind of funny,

but what's in vidalite, I... I mean, exactly?

Are you having problems with the formula?

Oh, no, not problems.

I'm getting this familiar feeling,

sort of a buzz.

Do you know what I mean?

No, I'm afraid I don't.

Well, you're doing beautifully on the program, Betsy.

I know. I'm not even hungry at all.

But I can't sleep at night, and my hands shake.

Oh, dear, your body's going through some changes.

That's all. It'll smooth out in time.

You don't know this,

but last summer I kicked this really bad amphetamine habit.

Diet pills.

That feeling that I had then

is a feeling that I have now on vidalite.

Well, that's very odd.

My doctor, he wants to be real cautious,

and he won't even allow me any caffeine.

And, oh...

I just wondered if I could have, like, a list of ingredients

just to check it out.

You know, just for my own peace of mind.

Of course.

Oh, thanks.

Here is the list of ingredients.

I'm sure your doctor will give us a stamp of approval.

It's not that I don't trust you...

Please, Betsy, not another word.

You see, what you're feeling is a natural high,

nothing more, nothing less.

So come on, why don't you go out here,

take a little breather,

and Barry'll bring you your vidalite?

Huh? Okay? Okay.

See you later, Betsy.

Bye. Bye.

Great. We hooked a former speed freak

who recognizes the symptoms.

Don't panic.

We just put her on a clean formula for now on.

I, uh... I think we'd better change the rest of the formulas.

Oh, sure, and have everyone in withdrawal

at the investor's reception.

[Laughs] Then our pickings would really be slim.

No, we will just worry about Betsy bach.

And don't you worry.

This whole thing will blow over by the end of the week.

Trust me.

Okay.

[Laughs]

[Jennifer] Ah, good morning, everybody.

Morning, darling. You look great.

Oh, thank you. Have you seen Betsy this morning?

You should know better than that.

She's been at torso and back for a 6 A.M. workout.

And right now she's out on the court warming up.

I don't believe her.

Somebody ought to time that kid.

If she was a racehorse, I'd be a millionaire.

I better get down there.

Oh, darling, we could use a lineman.

Judging from where I sit, your lines are just fine.

Oh, why, thank you.

[Panting]

[Exhales]

I better concede right now.

Finally. I've been up for hours.

I don't remember you getting up this early before.

And your energy. Have you always had this much?

No, I never used to.

But this vidalite is terrific, jenn.

Complex carbohydrates, protein, the works.

My doctor just gave it a seal of approval.

Oh, did you talk to him today?

Um, just casually. Ready?

You are feeling all right?

Fine. It's a long story, jenn.

I'll tell you about it later,

after I beat the pants off you, come on.

All right, it's a deal. [Laughs]

But I think at this rate,

I think it's gonna be a very short game.

Shall we rally?

[Grunts]

[Ball bangs]

I'll get it.

Whew, I'm awfully glad you missed one.

[♪♪]

You all right, Betsy?

I'm okay. Let's go.

Betsy, what's the matter?

Oh, god.

Jenn.

Betsy.

[Gasping]

[Groaning]

Betsy, what's the matter?

My arm. Numb.

Betsy.

Bets...

Jonathan!

Max!

Jonathan!

[♪♪]

[Beeping]

You'll both be happy to hear she has an excellent chance.

And I'm sure the specialist

you're flying in from Boston will concur.

Can you tell us, doctor,

when you think she might be out of the coma?

Not precisely,

but we do know you got her here on time.

Isn't she, uh, rather young to have had a heart attack?

Yes, but you say she was dieting,

exercising strenuously.

That kind of stress, coupled with a chemical imbalance,

often leads to a heart problem.

Amphetamines very definitely

and seriously upset the chemical balance.

Amphetamines?

[♪♪]

She's been off pills since last summer.

Afraid she's back on them again.

Her blood tests tell us that much.

I can't believe it.

Sorry.

Why don't you go home and get some rest?

There's nothing more you can do here.

Well, I'd sort of like to stay, in case she wakes up.

I think the doctor's right, darling.

Why don't we go home, and we'll, ah,

come back and see her tomorrow, come on.

[♪♪]

[Inaudible dialogue]

Betsy bach just had a heart attack.

She's in a coma at county general.

Shut the door.

Shut the door.

How did it happen?

She was playing tennis.

She collapsed on the court.

You gave her too big a dose, Marilyn.

Coma, that's good.

She won't be able to tell them her suspicions.

The blood tests. They're gonna know by now she was on speed.

That's okay. They'll think she went back on the pills.

We go on just as before.

I better ring for some flowers.

Flowers? What are you talking about?

The cat is out of the bag. We have blown it.

My career, this salon,

the cable franchise, the works!

Calm down.

Have you been on the vidalite too?

Now, nobody knows anything yet.

And maybe Betsy won't recover.

And what if she does?

What if she tells the harts what she told us this morning?

What if? What if? What if?

We'll just have to wait and see.

Now, listen,

we've got an easy million in investment money

coming in tomorrow from grateful husbands.

Who says we have to stick around to deliver the goods? Hmm?

You mean take the money and run?

Why not? It's not as if we're out of training.

And just think, Barry.

You and me and a million dollars,

away from all of this in rio, hmm?

[♪♪]

[Door opens]

[♪♪]

Darling.

Did you find anything?

Not even an aspirin.

Why would she go back on speed?

She was doing so well on vidalite.

Well, it's all beginning to make sense.

Her energy, her... her lack of appetite, her nervousness.

I know there was something she was concerned about.

We were gonna talk after our game.

She said she spoke to her doctor this morning.

Well, I'll call him tomorrow, and I'll check it out.

Good.

If she was on pills,

maybe someone at the torso salon

would have known about it.

They're having that investors reception tomorrow.

The salon will be closed.

Maybe we should go to that reception.

Afternoon.

[Laughs] Hi.

Oh, yeah, the evanses, Jim and marcia.

She's lost 25 pounds.

Put them down for 200,000.

Okay. Ooh, the Harpers. Oh.

Hi, how are you? Mr. and Mrs. Harper.

Sheila and Dave.

Ah, she's been complaining about the exercises.

Put her down for 100,000.

Any trouble, cut her back to 50.

Good. You got it.

[Laughs]

What are they doing here?

They must be very pleased with the turnout.

Well, it looks like the, uh, vidalite treasury

will put on a few pounds.

Hi, I'm Gina halstead.

Oh, I remember you. Jennifer.

This must be your husband Jonathan.

How do you do? Oh.

Betsy's told us all so much about you.

How is the poor dear?

The doctor's very hopeful.

This is the torso brochure.

It's a remarkable opportunity, isn't it?

Do you realize I have lost 20 pounds?

What do you think? Congratulations.

[Laughs] Oh, thank you.

Everyone I know just loves vidalite.

I do too. I just feel so up all the time.

I just feel so full of life.

I hope you're going to be generous.

Betsy loves it too.

Oh, the poor dear has a weak heart.

Do you know, I had a weak heart too?

I had rheumatism, I had colitis,

until I started drinking vidalite.

I just love it, love it, love it.

Well, I'm sure that Barry Grayson

appreciates your enthusiasm.

Oh, Barry. Oh, how stupid of me. Where are my manners?

I forgot to introduce you to our guests of honor.

They're right over here.

Oh, I have to run, bye.

Well, so much for Malibu mellow.

I've never seen anyone so excited over a liquid diet.

The harts are here, they're right over there.

I want you to go see the harts.

Go see the harts, just go see them.

Mr. and Mrs. Hart, how nice of you to come.

Marilyn, Barry, my husband Jonathan.

How do you do? How do you do?

Mr. Hart. Barry, it's my pleasure.

How is Betsy? [Jennifer] Still the same.

But we're very hopeful.

Thank you for the flowers.

You're welcome. Our pleasure.

We've tried to reach her doctor up north.

Her doctor here said

that her blood stream was flooded with amphetamines.

That's what caused her heart attack.

Oh, no. No.

Betsy did have a pill problem.

We thought she'd overcome it, but apparently not.

I'm very sorry.

You wouldn't have any idea

where she could get hold of pills, would you?

We haven't been able to find a single one.

I have no idea. No.

But under the circumstances, Mr. and Mrs. Hart,

we certainly appreciate you both being here today.

Uh, enjoy yourselves, Mr. and Mrs. Hart.

Will you excuse us, please?

Thank you, thank you.

Oh, no, no, no, no. Don't touch the pink one.

That's my vidalite.

Help yourself to champagne, juice, whatever. Bye.

For someone who doesn't go near the bar,

she certainly is filled with a lot of spirit.

Doesn't that sort of energy remind you of someone?

You know, they found two things

in Betsy's bloodstream, right?

Vidalite and amphetamines.

Now, supposing the vidalite had amphetamines in it.

That would explain why we didn't find any pills.

And why all these people are so eager

to make an investment,

and why Gina halstead is bouncing off the walls.

[Indistinct conversation]

Why don't you go watch the presentation,

and I'll go check out some of Gina halstead's

private vidalite.

Right.

Ah, ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much.

Boy, you sure look good out there.

First of all, I wanna thank every one of you for coming.

Now, uh, I see you all have your brochures.

So let's see what we can do to get those figures

off the page and into motion.

Hit it.

[Disco music playing]

Little, uh, too much champagne.

Uh, you know where the milk is?

There's some in the fridge, help yourself.

Thanks.

Find anything?

I think we need a doggy bag.

Look.

Here.

Where did he get that?

It's Gina's.

If he has that analyzed, we're in big trouble.

They won't. Heh.

But there's gonna be a slight change in the program.

Let's go.

Ah, thank you very much, Kathy.

Uh, let's hear it for Kathy, huh?

That's quite a demonstration.

Okay. Thank you all very much.

Uh, now, at this time, it gives me great pleasure

to bring up the moving force of torso, inc.,

our general manager, Marilyn gann.

[Applause]

Thank you. Thank you, Barry.

Moving force is a good way to describe

a daily exercise routine

that we have developed for our torso couples.

Barry.

[Disco music playing]

[Whoops]

[Cheering, whistling, applause]

[Laughs]

Look easy? It is.

We'd like some volunteers now.

Of course, for our beginner's version.

I wonder why we never do anything like that?

Because we always come up with something better to do.

Oh, yes. Okay... oh, no, this won't hurt at all.

Do you think it would be rude

if we left before they asked us for a contribution?

I don't think so.

Besides, four celery tonics is your limit.

Come on.

Very simple. I can't do this.

No, it's really very simple.

[Man grunts]

[All screaming]

[Jennifer yelling]

Oh. Help!

Oh! Ah!

Help! Jennifer.

[Indistinct yelling] Wait.

[Excited chattering]

Give me your hand. Ungh!

[Yells]

[Jennifer] Help! Jonathan!

[Jonathan] Hang on.

Oh.

[Grunting]

Ungh! I got it.

[Yells]

[Both grunting]

[Yelping]

[Jonathan] I got you.

Okay. Put your arm around my neck.

[Barry] Okay. Take my wrist.

That's it. There you go.

[Jennifer grunting]

Please, step back, everyone.

Oh, Mrs. Hart, thank goodness you're all right.

I'll be fine.

Just let me catch my breath.

Well, all's well that ends well, I guess.

You poor dear thing, what a horrible thing to happen.

The party was going so well...

Mr. Hart, I'm terribly sorry. Is there anything I can do?

Barry, are you all right? I'll take Mrs. Hart home now.

Of course, Mr. Hart. Listen, I can't apologize enough

for what happened, Mr. Hart.

They're suspicious, I know it.

Let them have their suspicions.

As long as they don't have their evidence.

[Man] I understand how you feel, Mr. Hart.

But, uh, I have no evidence.

There's a girl lying in a coma.

We were almost killed ourselves, isn't that all you need?

Well, a heart attack is not a crime, Mrs. Hart.

And as far as I know, neither is a bungled back flip.

They just don't justify search warrants

and the seizures of...

What do you call the stuff, vegamite, vigimite?

Vidalite. This is not a theory, lieutenant.

Well, there's no crime, there's no witnesses,

there's no evidence, and there's no testimony.

Betsy hasn't even regained consciousness.

I'd say that sounds like a crime to me.

I understand how you feel, Mrs. Hart, I really do.

We ran a check on these two people,

this Marilyn gann and Barry Grayson.

There's nothing on them,

not even a traffic violation.

My hands are tied.

Now, if this girl regains consciousness,

and she can testify,

then we got something.

Well, let's hope that she does, lieutenant.

Thanks for dropping by.

See you later.

[Car starts]

[♪♪]

And you said the full amount will be available

for withdrawal tomorrow morning at 9?

Perfect. Thank you.

We'll just make that 11:00 flight.

If the harts don't find out something before then.

They didn't get Gina's vidalite sample,

but what is to stop them from getting get someone else's, huh?

Because as of two hours ago,

everyone is on clean, pure unadulterated formulas.

The evidence is down the drain.

Unless someone has some old stuff

in the back of the refrigerator.

Barry, please, we are so close now.

If we can just hold out till tomorrow morning,

we'll be $1.5 million richer.

Why did I ever listen to you?

All I wanted was a legitimate career, on the up-and-up.

This town is full of musclemen and ex-lifeguards.

You never had a chance.

Not without our little hook.

Now, all we have to do

is hope that Betsy's coma lasts till tomorrow noon.

[Jonathan] No, thanks. I'll try him later on today.

Goodbye.

The doctor's not in.

He's, uh, due back sometime this afternoon.

I sure would like to know

what he talked to her about that morning.

You know what makes me angry? The lieutenant's attitude.

What sort of evidence does he need?

The kind that we couldn't hang on to yesterday.

Well, I've got an idea.

What if we call some of these investors

and try to get some vidalite from them?

Well, the only problem with that

is that the vidalite is made on a daily basis.

And I'm sure by now that Barry and Marilyn

have probably cleaned up the formula.

Well, it wouldn't hurt to try.

This should take me the better part of all day.

Well, I'll try to get Betsy's doctor from the office,

and I'll talk to you later.

Bye. Bye-bye, darling.

Bye-bye, Max. [Max] Bye.

Well, if we can't get the lieutenant solid evidence,

perhaps we can get him liquid.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

I just talked to Sheila Harper. Mm-hm.

And guess what. What?

Jennifer hart is calling all of our clients,

asking them if they've had strange symptoms

since they've been on the vidalite plan.

Well, that's all right. I already told you,

all the formulas are clean.

That's just the problem.

A couple of our clients are going into withdrawal.

Mrs. Petrie called. She's shaking all over.

Marcia Evans is seeing double.

What did you tell them?

I blamed it on the caterers at the reception. That was good.

But no one's gonna believe that long enough for us to get out of here.

Not when Jennifer hart is calling people, putting ideas in their head.

We have got to stop her.

Well...

If Jennifer hart wants evidence,

then we'll just have to give it to her.

Won't we?

[Chuckles lightly]

[Doctor] She's had a good day.

We're very hopeful.

According to her specialist,

she should be coming out of it very soon.

I'll leave you two alone.

Thank you, doctor.

[Telephone ringing]

Hello?

[Marilyn] Hello, Mrs. Hart, this is Marilyn gann.

Oh, hello, Marilyn.

Your Butler told me I could find you there.

Um, how is Betsy?

Is she awake?

Uh, no. She's about the same.

Actually, I'm calling regarding her.

I found something of Betsy's

when I was cleaning out her locker in the salon.

You did? What was that?

Perhaps you better come down here.

I think it explains a few things.

All right, I'll be right there.

Thank you, Marilyn.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Hello. Is Marilyn here? Mrs. Hart.

She's in her office. We were just about to close.

Ah, yes, I know. She called me to ask me if I'd come over.

Oh. Thank you, Kathy.

Mrs. Hart, thank you for coming over.

I didn't want to, uh, discuss this on the phone.

I found these in Betsy's locker.

I'm very sorry.

So she was back on the pills.

Yes, that's what it looks like.

She has been edgy for the last couple of weeks.

She was? [Barry] Yeah.

[Jennifer] I, uh... I don't know.

I just can't believe it.

[Marilyn] I know.

Did they say how long they think the coma will last?

Marilyn, I'm so sorry. I know you're about to close. I...

Excuse me, Mrs. Hart. I was just feeling so bad.

I was shopping in neiman Marcus, and I was very dizzy.

[Marilyn] Sit down here. Let me call your husband.

He's out of town.

I-If I just sit down for a minute, I'll... I'll...

I'll get her some smelling salts.

Some water... I'll get it for you.

[♪♪]

[Coughing]

Just lean back on me. How is it now?

Is that better? No. My pains in my chest...

My... my arm...

Your arm?

Here you are. Here's your water, Mrs. Halstead.

I think she's having a heart attack.

[♪♪]

I don't think it's anything

as serious as a heart attack, Mrs. Hart.

She'll be okay.

Well, I think we should call an ambulance.

Maybe you're right.

Great, another victim,

and Jennifer hart's out there picking up the pieces.

Now what?

We kill them both.

You're crazy.

Just determined to make that plane tomorrow

with a million and a half.

Even if it means

we have to kill two people to make it happen.

Three, you mean.

Nobody's killing anybody. Give me that gun.

Come on.

It's okay, Mrs. Hart,

I called her doctor. He's gonna meet her at her house.

Her house? Uh-huh.

Thanks, Kathy, go lock up the back.

What about the hospital? Well, he said she has these spells all the time.

It's nothing to worry about. Here we go.

Thank you so much for your help, Mrs. Hart. I'd prefer to go with her.

It's really not important, Mrs. Hart. I'm afraid I have to insist.

I'll bring the station wagon around the front.

Okay, here we go.

There we go, Mrs. Halstead.

[♪♪]

[Jonathan] So she did have some reservations

about that liquid diet when she spoke to you that morning.

Well, thank you very much, doctor.

No, no, she's, uh...

She's doing as well as could be expected.

Right. Thank you very much.

Bye-bye.

[Telephone ringing]

Hart residence.

[Jonathan] Ah, Max, is Mr. H there?

Not yet, Mr. H.

Wanna leave a message?

Yes, you can tell her that it looks like our theory was right.

I talked to Betsy's doctor in San Francisco,

and, ah, the vidalite might well be spiked.

Uh-oh. I think Mrs. H is at the salon now.

She's at torso? Why?

Well, this dame called and said she had something of Betsy's

that would explain everything.

Come to think of it, Mrs. H should be home by now.

Max, you call over there to torso right away, will you?

And, ah, tell Mrs. H to get out of there fast.

I'm going over there myself.

[♪♪]

[Recorded voice] I'm sorry, the torso salon is closed at the moment.

If you'd like to leave a message,

please do so after the beep.

[♪♪]

Anybody home?

Mr. Hart.

Where's Mrs. Hart?

Oh, she just left.

Her car's outside.

She went with Barry and Marilyn.

Any idea where they went?

The halstead place.

Mrs. Halstead didn't feel well.

Your wife thought she might have had a heart attack.

Did a man by the name of Max call here?

Well, he could have. The machine might be on.

Is that an outside line?

Yes, press the first button.

Max, there's a file there on torso.

In that, there's a list of names.

Look up a name called halstead.

Give that address to lieutenant draper,

have him meet me there and send an ambulance.

Right.

[Mouthed speech]

Easy, now, easy.

Easy.

Easy, Gina.

We'll put her on the couch.

You're gonna be fine.

[Groaning]

Let's get you to lay down here.

Okay.

Here we go.

Easy.

Easy.

She looks awful. Where's the doctor?

I thought you said he was supposed to be here.

Oh, yes, he said there was some medication in her room.

I'll get it. I'll get some water.

Who's your doctor?

[Choking]

Malone.

My purse.

This thing gets worse and worse.

I say we cut our losses and leave tonight.

What, leave without the money?

Just a few hours more.

And Mrs. Hart, what are we gonna do about her?

[Gina gagging]

Malone? Malone.

Uh, Dr. Malone, please.

Jennifer hart calling...

So I was right.

Dead right.

Wait.

[♪♪]

Wait a minute, listen to me. Listen to me.

There's still time to think.

You haven't killed anybody.

Betsy will be fine, and Mrs. Halstead will be fine

if you get her to a hospital.

At the very worst, it'll be just fraud.

What makes you think we'll settle for the worst?

Mrs. Halstead doesn't know anything.

Honest, she couldn't possibly incriminate you.

What would it hurt to call an ambulance?

Maybe she's right.

We could call an ambulance, at least.

Here's the scenario.

We cover our tracks back at the salon.

Mrs. Halstead won't be found until her husband returns.

And you...

[Chuckles]

Silly Mrs. Hart returns to the scene

to recover the contents of her purse.

Let's go.

[♪♪]

[Tires squealing]

You all right?

[Stammers]

Jennifer.

Well, two harts are better than one.

How's Mrs. Halstead?

Not bad.

I think she'll be okay.

Thanks for the medical report.

But what we're really here for

is to help your wife look for her personal effects.

I wouldn't start hatching up any happy schemes

if I were you, Marilyn.

The police are on their way.

Of course they are,

right after the mounties and the cavalry.

You made too many mistakes, Barry.

Or maybe she made them for you.

Don't listen to him.

Like she said, if we stop now, it's only fraud.

Look, we could be living in rio like kings. You give me the gun.

[♪♪]

[Yelling]

Not a very secure feeling, is it, Barry?

Help me. Ungh!

Ungh! Help me, please. Help me.

[Grunting]

[Both grunting]

Up.

[Grunts]

[Jonathan grunts]

[Panting]

[Exhales]

You know, something, darling? They were right.

Rio is lovely this time of year.

[♪♪]

[Betsy] This is the ultimate in hospital dessert.

Pink.

I think I've had my fill of pink.

We talked to the doctor, and he said you'll be able to go home tomorrow.

Oh, that's wonderful.

Everybody's been so great, Jonathan.

What about Barry and Marilyn?

Barry and Marilyn will get about, uh...

10 years.

[Jennifer] Just think of it this way.

They have all that time

to develop a new bread and water diet.

I don't know, I'm kind of grateful to Barry.

How?

I lost 10 pounds in this coma.

Now I can eat all the ice cream I want.

You know, she's right.

There's nothing I like more than ice cream.

Nothing?

[Jonathan] Well...

There is one thing more.

Thank you, darling.

Chocolate chip cookies. [Tsks]

[Chuckles]
