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.

Oh, my feet.

Hey, why don't we just have lunch

and then take a little siesta?

We can call room service, order some champagne,

have a strolling violinist come up and play "Fascination."

Wait a minute.

I got it.

Gary Cooper and Audrey Hepburn in, uh...

Love in the Afternoon.

We could do a remake.

I don't mind.

Taxi!

Jennifer?

Jennifer.

Marcie.

Well, darling, look who's here.

Oh. Oh.

How are you? Hello.

Jonathan. Hello.

Well, what brings you two to New York?

I had a board meeting.

And I was just bored.

Oh, well.

This is incredible.

I move all the way to the West Coast,

and then I bump into you back in New York.

Well, now, how can New York's top fashion model

commute from the Coast?

Ex-top fashion model. I've become a lady of leisure.

Are you married?

Yes.

Last week. We're on our honeymoon.

Oh.

Who's the lucky fellow?

Adam Fowler, and he is absolutely divine.

He is nice, and he is sophisticated.

And he is wonderfully good-looking,

and he is, uh, ahem, very well off.

Well, when are we gonna meet him?

I'm meeting him for lunch right now.

Why don't you join us?

Uh... Mmm.

Oh, yes. Um... Please?

Sure.

Terrific! Oh, uh... My taxi.

What happened to "Fascination"?

Look, we can have the champagne.

We just have to take a rain check on the fiddlers.

Mm-hm.

Okay?

Oh, sir, uh,

would you take these up to room, uh...

Twenty-two-oh-four.

Yes.

Thank you.

Uh-huh. Darling?

And 2205?

Thanks.

It was a whirlwind romance.

I swept him off his feet.

Isn't that romantic?

Yeah.

Tell me, Adam, what occupies you

when you're not being pursued by ravishing models?

Well, I have a small consulting firm.

Offshore oil leases, mostly.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

We have a rather extensive buffet.

Or would you care to select your entrées

directly from the menu?

Darling?

I'll have the sole du bon fin.

I... I'll have the same.

Marcie?

I think I'd like to see the buffet.

I think I'll try the same. Thank you.

Excuse us.

That way, please.

So, Adam, your business is in California?

Yes, we'll be living at my penthouse in Malibu.

Oh, lovely.

You're not going to believe this.

What?

Take a look.

It's him.

Are you sure?

His hair's changed,

and he's grown a mustache, but it's him.

Pardon?

Uh, pardon, yeah. Uh...

That man at the far table

could that be an old friend of mine named

Adam Franklin?

I am afraid not, sir.

That's Mr. Adam Fowler.

As a matter of fact, I believe he's having lunch

with his new bride.

His new bride.

What do you say we go over

and congratulate the happy couple?

Patience, Gunther.

Patience.

Have you known...?

Marcie long?

Well, we used to be very good friends,

but I haven't seen her for years.

Jennifer,

I'm about to do something which will seem...

quite strange to you.

How? How strange?

I'm, uh, about to get up

and leave this restaurant.

Well, it couldn't be anything we ate.

Is it something I said?

Tell Marcie that I love her,

and I will see her at our apartment on the Coast tomorrow.

I'm leaving now.

Adam... I can't explain.

Take care of Marcie for me, will you?

Oh, thank you.

Where's Adam?

Adam.

Oh, Adam...

said he couldn't explain

that he would see you tomorrow in California.

You mean, he left? Just like that?

Just like that.

Does this sort of thing happen often?

Well, if... If Adam left abruptly, um...

Well, there must be an explanation.

Well, I'm sure there is.

It's probably a... It's probably

a big business deal. Heh.

I will just fly out there early in the morning,

and I'll meet him.

Oh, well, look, we've got our plane here.

Why don't you fly out with us tomorrow?

Well, we're not leaving until...

Until about, uh...

Ten o'clock?

About 10:00 tomorrow.

Hee-hee. That would be lovely.

Great.

I'm so excited.

I just can't wait to see Adam.

Neither can I. Lunch was $140.

It's not here, Milo. It can't be.

Keep looking. It's the logical place.

Well, somebody's home.

Adam?

Oh. Ugh.

Just outta curiosity, Mr. H,

you were going to take the big guy, weren't you?

You should see the bedroom.

It looks like kindling wood, and... And they even opened up

the canned goods in the kitchen.

You hear about people like that, but you never expect 'em

to hit ya in your own home.

You have anything especially valuable, Mrs. Fowler?

No, nothing special. No jewelry.

For burglars, they passed up

some pretty worthwhile merchandise.

Oh, the phone still works.

You calling the police?

No, no. I wanna call Adam at the office.

Yes, this is Mrs. Fowler.

May I speak to my husband, please?

I'm sorry, Mrs. Fowler,

Mr. Fowler's not in at the moment.

May I take a message?

Well, do you know where I can reach him?

This is very important.

I'm sorry, but as soon as I hear from him,

I'll tell him you called.

Wait... Wait a minute.

E-excuse me, but is...? Is this an answering service?

Yes, it is.

Let me speak to them.

I don't understand.

Do you have any messages there for Adam Fowler?

No, as a matter of fact, this is the first message

I've ever taken for him.

Thanks very much.

Now that we've got your statement, Mrs. Fowler,

we'll do what we can.

That's it?

That's it.

What about Adam Fowler?

What about him? Well, lieutenant, uh,

doesn't it seem strange to you

that a man would leave his bride

in New York, in the middle of lunch,

never to be seen again?

No offense, Mrs. Fowler,

but maybe the marriage didn't agree with him.

Or maybe the lunch.

Charming, lieutenant.

We've checked out here as well.

That so-called consulting firm of his

is nothing more than an answering service.

He's never even had a conversation with them.

And you haven't turned up a trace.

No bank account,

no social security, nothing.

Wait a minute.

Mrs. Fowler,

would you describe your husband to me again, please?

He's, uh, 6'2", about 175 pounds, uh,

dark brown hair... Does he have a mustache?

Yes.

A couple of wire photos came in from New York City police.

An unidentified accident victim was found

in Central Park early this morning.

His neck was broken.

No ID.

But his clothes were bought in Los Angeles.

They thought we might be able to get a line on him.

Ugh!

I'm really very sorry, uh...

Come on, Marcie.

We'll take you down to Jonathan's office.

There they go.

Think they know?

I bet the brunette in the tan jacket does.

After all, she was Adam's wife.

Here we go.

It's better, isn't it?

It will be, yes.

You two have been so wonderful.

I don't know what I would have done without you.

Nonsense.

You know, you're perfectly welcome

to stay with us if you like.

Oh, thank you,

but I... I need some time to be alone, you know,

just do some thinking.

So I think I'll just stay at the Malibu Inn

until I get the apartment straightened up. You sure?

Yeah.

Well, I'll drop you off, Marcie.

You have a date with a decorator, remember?

Oh, I completely forgot.

We're redoing some of the offices,

and I haven't even looked at the samples.

Do you mind?

Oh, no. I'll call you tonight.

See you later.

Thank... Thank you.

Bye-bye.

What are we gonna do, follow 'em?

We'll leave the Harts alone.

Let's wait for Adam's wife.

Yes, Deanne?

Uh, there's an Inspector Abernathy

here from the FBI, uh, here to see you.

Well, we better let him in.

Uh, reluctantly. Heh.

You can go in.

Thank you.

Hello, inspector.

I'm Jennifer Hart. Can I help you?

Craig Abernathy, FBI, Los Angeles.

I'm looking for Mrs. Adam Fowler.

Marcie Fowler?

Oh, what a shame. You just missed her.

My husband's taking her to a hotel.

Mrs. Hart,

I'm afraid your friend is in for a bit of a shock.

Her husband has been killed.

Yes, she knows.

Does she also know that her husband's real name

was not Adam Fowler?

You're kidding.

His real name was Adam Franklin.

He was on the Most Wanted list

for robbing a federal bank in Boston.

But there must be some mistake.

There's no mistake, Mrs. Hart.

Do you, uh, recognize any of these men?

Well, yes.

Yes, that's Adam, and...

those are the two men that tried to rob his apartment.

The one with the beard is Gunther Mattox.

The other one is Milo Vitt.

Milo Vitt?

Mm-hm. They were partners of Franklin's

in the bank robbery.

Five million dollars in large bills.

Then about six months ago,

Franklin took the money and skipped out on them.

So they were after the money?

Uh-huh.

Well, I can assure you

they left that apartment empty-handed.

Well, you've been very helpful, Mrs. Hart.

Oh, can you tell me exactly

where your husband was taking Marcie?

Certainly. At the Malibu Inn. It's at the beach.

Malibu Inn. Well, you've been very helpful.

Oh, by the way, if you see either of those two men,

please call me immediately at the bureau.

Thank you. I will.

Oh, and, Mrs. Hart, don't take any chances.

They're killers.

I'll remember that.

Deanne? Yes, Mrs. Hart?

Try to get through to Mr. Hart on the mobile phone

and ask him to meet me at Adam Fowler's apartment.

I have an idea.

What if Adam didn't tell her where it is?

There's only one way to find out.

Jonathan?

Jonathan?

I can't tell you how much I hope that's really you.

Okay, lady. Where is it?

"It"?

Oh, it.

Oh.

Have you tried the cookie jar?

Oh.

Ugh.

Please.

Oh.

I don't wanna have to kill you, lady.

I don't know where it is.

He must have told you. You're his wife.

I'm not his wife.

I'm Jennifer Hart.

Hey...

I can put whatever you want on the tombstone, okay?

'Cause if you don't tell me where it is,

you're gonna be dead.

Listen, I... Ah!

Ow!

Well, did you see anybody else in the garage?

Of course I didn't.

If I had, I would have called for help.

Nobody else in garage.

"Nobody else in garage," you're gonna write that down?

The police write down everything.

Now, there were no fingerprints on the knife,

but I am putting out an APB for his buddy, Milo Vitt.

Milo Vitt?

I swear.

Perhaps you should contact Inspector Abernathy.

He's with the FBI.

Don't worry, I'll get in touch with the bureau.

They're handling the bank robbery end.

But this is a local homicide case,

and I am taking charge personally.

Well, then you're just the man I wanna talk to

because these guys seem to think

that Jennifer is Adam Fowler's widow.

And I don't want this fellow Milo Vitt

trying to slit her throat.

You say the nicest things.

Thank you.

Look, I am telling you

what I've already told Lieutenant Gifford.

And how many times do I have to say this?

I don't know where Adam hid the money!

But he must have told you something,

given you some clue, some hint.

Who is it?

It's Jennifer and Jonathan.

Hi. Come in.

Hi.

Oh, inspector.

This is my husband, Jonathan.

How do you do, inspector?

Glad to know you, Mr. Hart.

I take it that you've heard about Gunther Mattox.

No, what about Gunther Mattox?

He's dead. Stabbed in the back.

Stabbed. I see.

Well, a knife is Milo Vitt's M.O.

I think I better get down and see Lieutenant Gifford.

He's probably trying to locate me.

Oh, and, Mrs. Franklin, I want to see you again.

Mrs. Hart. Mr. Hart, glad to meet you.

Thank you, inspector.

Did he give you a bad time?

Oh, I can't really blame him.

He thinks I know where the money is hidden.

Ah.

I mean, doesn't he realize

I didn't even know Adam when the bank was robbed?

Marcie, uh, didn't you know anything at all

about Adam's past before you married him?

Not really. I was this storybook romance.

The kind of thing that never really happens to anybody.

I meet the perfect man, fall in love,

and on an impulse, I married him.

I mean, I know that that sounds really crazy, but...

No, it doesn't.

Doesn't sound crazy at all.

I think you'll love the print samples,

but the material is so expensive.

It can either be like this,

or in that color.

Which do you like?

Which one do you like?

Well, I think that... Yes, Deanne?

Uh, Mr. Hart, you have a phone call.

Uh, the man won't give his name,

but he says it's about someone named Milo Vitt.

Milo Vitt?

Did I get that right?

Yeah, you got it right. Put him on, please.

Okay.

Hello.

Mr. Hart?

I know where you can find, uh, Milo Vitt.

Yeah, well, if you're interested, Mr. Hart, um,

meet me in a half hour? Is that all right?

In the lobby of the Century Plaza?

And, um, Mr. Hart, uh, come alone, will ya?

Because, uh, if I even smell a cop, I won't show.

How will I know you?

You won't know me.

But I'll know you.

Deanne, will you get me Security please?

Uh, can I help you, sir?

Yeah, I'm counting on it.

Yes, Deanne?

Mr. Hart,

there is no answer at the Security office.

I can't understand it.

Will you go down there personally and tell him

I want a man up here right away. Thank you.

Well, don't you think I ought to go with you?

Darling, he said alone. You better stay, okay?

Mr. Hart! Mr. Hart!

Deanne, get some help and untie him.

Oh, Deanne, would you call Peter Shore

and tell him I need 500 yards of 68-61-91 in platinum?

No noise.

Not a sound.

Oh, please, you've got me mixed up with somebody else.

Where did Adam hide the money?

I'm not his wife! I don't know.

Listen, lady...

You got the wrong lady, Milo.

That's my wife.

Jonathan!

Ah!

Stay here and lock the door.

Oh! Watch it.

Oh, my God.

Milo!

We thought you ought to know, Marcie.

Milo Vitt's been killed.

We know it's been a terrible experience for you.

Oh, eh, well, it's... It's just that it's, um,

it's been one shock after another. It's...

First, Adam,

and then that awful man Gunther

being stabbed.

And now, this third man being run down and... And killed.

Well, if there's anything we can do for you.

Oh, oh, Jonathan, I thank you.

I've been taking care of myself a long time.

Don't you worry. I am a survivor.

Darling?

Wake up.

You're sweet, darling, but it's late.

This is important.

Oh, you're so romantic.

I've been thinking about Marcie.

We didn't tell her about Milo Vitt.

Him again.

We didn't tell her that Milo Vitt

was in an automobile accident.

We didn't? No, we didn't.

Oh.

Well, maybe she heard about it from Abernathy.

You know, you haven't seen her for a long time.

Just, uh, well, just how good of friends were you?

Well...

we weren't close friends, but we were friends.

Hm.

Well, knowing some of your friends,

they're really off the wall.

Like who, for instance?

"Like who, for instance?" Yes.

Harriet. Harriet?

Yeah, Harriet. Wha...?

Harriet is a very respectable, efficient woman.

You call wearing old Army helmets an affectation?

How 'bout George?

George?

Your friend.

Oh, just because he keeps a live chicken in the shower?

The chicken I understand, it's the stuttering.

You know, some people consider stuttering

to be unfortunate, not strange.

You don't think it's strange

that the only time he ever stutters

is when he talks about women?

And he talks about women all the time.

I'll give you George.

I don't want him, thank you. Let's get some sleep.

Darling?

Mm-hm?

I have a hunch that that money

is still in the apartment somewhere.

Well, if you have a hunch,

let's go over there tomorrow morning and take a look.

Good.

Darling?

Mmm?

I just thought of something important.

Try to get some sleep.

You know me.

Once I'm awake, I'm awake.

Well, now, that is important.

We've been looking for hours, there's nothing in this junk.

Maybe there's a secret panel somewhere.

Sounds pretty solid.

You know,

considering that this is pretty expensive material,

it's not been put on very well.

Look at this.

Well, how do you like that?

Wow!

Five million dollars worth of wallpaper.

Now, that's expensive material.

Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Hart.

Inspector Abernathy.

I'm afraid we beat you to it.

I see you did.

I'm sure you do know what this means.

Uh, no, uh, tell me, what does it mean?

Well, it means that Marcie could be a murderer.

I mean, we did find the money in Adam's apartment,

and we are running out of suspects.

Well, it's a very nice supposition, Mr. Hart,

but, uh, I'm afraid it might be a trifle difficult to prove.

Well, you are the FBI man,

and I don't want to tell you how to do your job,

but, uh, I'm sure that, uh,

one phone call will take care of it.

Hello?

Oh, hello, Marcie.

This is Jonathan.

Yeah, I've got some great news for you.

We, uh, found the money.

In Adam's apartment. Oh, can you hear me all right?

This phone seems to be cutting in and out.

Uh... Yes, I'm... I'm here.

That's wonderful.

Um, did you...? Did you call the police?

Well, uh, no, we haven't

because, uh, the phone's out of order a bit.

Can you hear it?

Yeah. Could you...?

Why don't you call Lieutenant Gifford

for us, would you, please?

Sure. I'll call him, yes.

Oh, thanks very much.

Okay, Marcie. I'll... Right. Goodbye.

If I'm wrong, she'll call Lieutenant Gifford.

And if I'm right, she oughta show up here any minute.

In which case, we'll have an extra pair of hands

to help us count the money, won't we?

Whew.

Now, this is what I call a "green room."

Can you imagine what this place would rent for?

Beautiful, isn't it?

Thank you.

Adam told me that he made a big score,

but he wouldn't tell me where he'd hidden it.

That's why I married him.

You killed Gunther and Milo, didn't you?

Yes.

See what I mean about your friends?

Oh, Marcie, you can't get away with this.

There's an FBI man right behind you.

That's the way we planned it.

Oh, there you are, darling.

No plan's perfect.

I should have known

he was too good-looking to be an FBI man.

He looks more like a model.

A male model.

Very good, Mrs. Hart. Very good.

Actually, it was Craig's idea that I should marry Adam.

Well, I'm afraid now it's time to tidy up some loose ends.

Why do I feel like a loose end?

You mind telling us where you're taking us?

Oh, not at all.

I have a boat down at the beach,

and the two of you have a one-way ticket.

All aboard, please.

There's only one thing I'd like to know.

Did you kill Adam?

You can thank Gunther and Milo for that.

No, we wouldn't have hurt old Adam,

not till after we got the money.

Let's get 'em! Come on!

Hey, get outta here!

There's a guy up there with a gun.

Go! MAN: Let's get outta here.

Look out!

I never thought I'd wind up

being a little something on the side.

Whoa! Hang on.

What's the alternative?

Darling,

do you know what the best thing about finding $5 million is?

What's that?

You find out who your friends are.

Uh-huh.

Oh, what a great idea

to come back to New York.

And we can finish where we left off.

Where was that?

Oh, yes, I remember.

The remake.

We can start by having room service

bring up some champagne.

Oh, yes.
