One-Adam-12, One-Adam-12,

a 211 in progress.

One-Adam-12, handle code 3.

♪♪

If the weather's nice, I think I'll bring Alice down here on our day off.

I thought you and Alice had a falling out.

That's right.

You got back together, huh?

Why don't you and Jean come down with us?

I don't know, Pete.

You and Alice make a pretty hot-headed twosome.

I think we'll just hang around the pool this weekend.

The pool?

When did you get a swimming pool?

Uh, it's just a figure of speech.

What pool?

It's one of those little plastic pools Jean bought for Jimmy.

I don't know. You're coming up in the world.

Drinks on your veranda and your own swimming pool.

Yeah, but I don't do any of that showy stuff off the high dive.

All units in the vicinity, One-Adam-12.

A 211 silent at the restaurant. 17 Bay Lane.

One-Adam-12, handle code 2.

One-Adam-12, Roger.

This is One-Adam-12 in pursuit of three male,

possible 211 suspects heading south on Dover Drive.

Suspect vehicle is a 1971 four-door Chevrolet, white over green.

- You make the plate? - No.

Suspect vehicle has turned west on Roosevelt Highway.

All units on all frequencies stand by.

One-Adam-12 is in pursuit.

This is One-Adam-12. We lost contact with 211 suspects.

Last seen heading west on Roosevelt Highway into the county.

Show us code 6 on 17 Bay Lane.

One-Adam-12, Roger.

I'd say the dude was at least 6'1" about 220 pounds.

Maybe more.

He was a lot bigger than the other two.

And mean. Oh, real mean.

He's the one who belted me.

Susie, could you move a little faster, huh?

We got to get this place cleaned up. Got to make a buck.

And I know he didn't see me trip the silent alarm.

He just belted me for kicks.

Did they use any names?

No, they didn't say anything.

I was making setups.

They walked in. I told them we weren't open yet.

Then the big guy ups with a shotgun.

Sawed-off.

He must have been carrying it behind his leg,

or I would've seen it when they come in.

Any idea how much they took?

Yeah, exactly 500.

Working money for the day.

Mostly bills, some coin rolled in bank paper.

Are you sure you don't want us to call an ambulance?

Nah, I'll be all right.

What happens next?

We file a report. Detectives will make the investigation.

Well, there won't be any fingerprints or anything.

They had gloves on.

All units, a sign stolen in the two column.

276 Ida Nora zebra. 276 Ida Nora zebra.

A 1971 Chevrolet, four-door, white over green

taken from 2719 Ocean View.

Sounds like the 211 we were chasing.

If it's hot, they probably ditched it.

Why don't we circle search the area where we lost them?

That's it.

This is One-Adam-12.

Code 6 at Sherman Avenue and Holly Court.

One stolen vehicle 276 Ida Nora zebra.

One-Adam-12, Roger.

Excuse me, ma'am. I'd like to ask you about that car.

Did you ever see who was driving or where they went?

Hey, officers.

Yeah, son.

You want to know about them three guys?

I'll tell you.

They ran over my ball.

It's swiped, ain't it? That car?

I figured there was something goofy about them guys.

- Three men? - Yeah.

Did you see where they went?

Down that way.

Did they go into one of those houses down there?

Nah, they took off in another car.

Convertible.

Sort of brown.

Maybe a Ford.

Yeah, that's what it was.

Thanks.

You catch them, see?

And make them give me another ball.

I'll put out a supplemental.

One-Adam-12, One-Adam-12, seen a man, 507 juveniles.

1354 Front.

One-Adam-12, Roger.

Oh, my name is Fine.

My name is Malloy. This is my partner, Jim Reed.

Two good-looking young men.

What's the trouble, sir?

Trouble like this shouldn't be.

Not in America.

Yes, sir, we saw the window.

From something like that, you think they can frighten me?

Dachau.

Then we knew the fear, young man.

The fear of that.

They were ghouls.

These are just hoodlums, punks.

- You see this? - Yes.

I got this today because I told them no more.

Who did it, Mr. Fine?

50 cents for just walking through there.

$2.00 a week just to stay in business.

No self-respecting person should pay.

Somebody's trying to shake you down

in return for protection. Is that it?

Not only me.

Six or seven other proprietors along the beach.

It ought to be against the law.

Yes, sir, it is.

You had to call the police. Why?

For the good of all of us, Mr. Gold.

Mr. Fine, you're a fool Now none of us will be safe.

Can you give us a description of the people...

No!

Like I said, punks, a gang of them.

Let's go. Face down on the ground.

Come on. Move it.

Whatever you want from me, just ask, young man.

Charges I will gladly bring.

Yes, sir. Thank you.

No? What do you think of it now, Mr. Gold?

They don't look so tough, huh?

Yeah, but two of them got away.

Two is less than four.

Yeah, but look. Maybe you're right,

but what about the rest of them?

A mathematician.

Fun and games. I wonder if those two

know how hard the fall can be for extortion.

They'll find out if Mr. Fine has his say.

The old gentleman's got guts.

Pete.

Tan convertible.

The boy said brown. Three men.

The book says reasonable cause.

They're going to go at least 61220.

See what you can get on them.

This is One-Adam-12 requesting a want.

California license 103 Paul Charles Edward.

One-Adam-12,

103 Paul Charles Edward... No want.

One-Adam-12, Roger.

Could be cold plates.

Could be they own it.

The spotted us.

One-Adam-12, suspect vehicle now heading east on Canal.

All right, freeze!

Keep your hands where I can see them.

Let's go.

Out!

Look, officer, I know I went through that stop sign,

but I saw you guys. I guess I flipped out.

Let's go. Hands on top of your heads and turn around.

Hey, have a heart, officer.

I can't afford another traffic bust.

I'll lose my license.

Looks like almost 500.

All right, hold it!

Drop it!

Face down.

Hands behind your back.

All right, up.

Walk.

Watch your head.

Take a look.

He pulled the trigger hard enough to break it.

- Misfire? - No.

The safety was on.

Look. Smoke.

We better take a look.

- Come on away from there. - My truck.

It's too late to do anything about it.

My truck.

Papa.

Norma, it's the truck.

Oh, it's all right. It's all right.

I knew it. I knew it was going to happen.

But no, he had to be a hero.

First it was the bricks in the window.

Now it's a bomb.

How do you know it was a bomb?

What else?

Look, I'm minding my own business.

I hear boom. I thought they were trying to blow up my joint here.

You see anything? Anything at all?

Mr. Policeman, I don't see nothing.

I don't hear nothing, and I don't say nothing.

If you'll excuse me.

Oh, such a stubborn man I marry. I say to him,

"Papa, why are you asking more trouble for yourself?"

You know what he says to me?

"Mama, I am a man of principle." Principle.

We can't run the business without the truck.

I know this is rough.

I don't know.

Maybe I got too much of the TV in my head.

Seymour Fine, the big crime buster.

Maybe I see better now.

We don't need anymore trouble.

We have just a little business here.

We would like to help you, but...

I understand, but you're making a mistake.

We can help you.

If we work together, we can stop this thing.

Sure. Sure.

But I'm getting out of the crime fight business.

From here on, I stick to used clothes.

Oh, Officers.

The two we caught this morning, you let them go.

I'm not going to press the charges.

Maybe we can put things back the way they were.

But we can stop what we've already done.

Do you think that'll help?

I'll pray.

One-Adam-12, clear.

One-Adam-12, clear in a call.

A 415 at the boat yard. Sail Fin way.

Code 2.

One-Adam-12, Roger.

Over there by the lift.

Get him down.

Come on. Do something.

300 lousy bucks.

I told you I haven't got it yet.

Hey, come on down.

Oh, no. No, no. I'm not coming down until I get my money.

And if I don't get my money,

this whole mess is going to go in the drain.

So I owe him back pay.

Come on down. We'll talk about it.

Talk? I'm tired of talk.

I want action. You hear me? Action!

Promises. Nothing but promises.

If he owes you, file a claim.

What?

A claim!

The Department of Labor Relations.

Oh, come on. A claim?

It'll take a year to collect.

Hey, you better get back. It's wet down there.

You're making a mistake.

- A what? - Big trouble.

I'm already in big trouble.

You do this, you'll be in so far, you'll never get out.

All right. So what's the difference?

He owes me. Now I'm going to owe him, see?

That'll even things up.

Look out. Here we go.

All right. All right. Take it easy.

Where does he live?

One of the little cabin cruisers over there.

Where's my dough?

You'll get your money. Just don't pull that on me again.

Let's get him up to the office.

My money is all.

Do you want to stop and get a hamburger?

Nah, let's 7 at the Strand.

This is One-Adam-12 requesting code 7

at the intersection of Pacific and Dell.

One-Adam-12, continue patrol and handle this call.

See the man, a 415 fight. 1354 Front. Code 2.

One-Adam-12, Roger.

Mr. Fine.

3858 Ida zebra.

Mr. Fine! Quick! Please!

This way, please.

In here quick. Look.

Get an ambulance.

Oh.

Oh, please, go away from us.

Leave us alone.

If you had never come,

then we wouldn't even have a broken window.

Who did this, Mrs. Fine?

Don't ask me.

Mama.

I'm here. I'm here.

It was them.

Two that got away.

Shh. It was nobody.

Nobody.

It all happened so fast.

Don't try and move.

The ambulance is on the way.

I called for a backup.

Oh, now please go away.

Leave us alone.

No, please find them.

Please.

Oh, Papa, you are crazy.

I know. I know.

Excuse me, officers.

I saw them.

There were two of them.

And they ran around the ally.

Which way?

There's a boat yard around the back there.

But... But you didn't hear it from me.

You take this side. I'll go over there.

That's it. Stand easy.

We ain't going nowhere. What's the beef?

A little matter of destroying property, extortion, assault,

and maybe arson.

Us?

We never hurt anyone in our lives.

Ah, then you wouldn't mind coming along

and getting a few things straightened out.

Sure, we mind.

We got things to do.

Turn around.

Like you said, you're not going anyplace.

Put your hands up behind your head.

Turn around. Interlace your fingers.

All right, hands behind your back.

We'll wrap up here and then come on in.

- You got him? - Yes, sir.

Thank God.

Oh, and for this we're going to get more broken windows

and more troubles.

Norma, you're wrong.

We were wrong.

Strange how soon we could forget.

You make a deal with tyranny, and it only gets worse.

We can help you with your cooperation.

You have mine.

Such a man I married.

Such a man.
