[ringing continues]

[whirring]

My sister was a great tennis player.

"Born with a racket," as they say.

She played for Penn University?

Number one varsity, her first year.

Sounds like a star.

My dad said given another year or two

she would have gone to Wimbledon.

But then she was murdered.

Remember Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs?

Battle of the Sexes. We won.

Few weeks later Penn U had its own version

of that match for a fund-raiser.

- Andi for the ladies? - And like Billie Jean, she won.

The next morning, she was found dead.

'Strangled, in her room.'

Cops look at the guy she beat?

- For quite a while. - Nothing stuck?

Then her case just kind of stalled.

It's been a dark cloud hanging over us, 33 years.

Sure.

What brings you in now, Emily?

My dad's moving to Florida.

I've been cleaning out his house.

I found a bunch of Andi's old tennis stuff

including this.

Is that a towel?

The one she used the night of the match.

It was still in her bag. I got sick after I handled it.

Poison Control found traces of sodium nitrate.

It's, uh, lethal in high doses.

Someone really wanted to hurt Andi.

I don't wanna be a bother

but I thought maybe it was related to her murder.

Could have been the doer's first attempt.

So..

...find out who dosed this towel.

Maybe we find the person who brought down a rising star.

[theme music]

[music continues]

[instrumental music]

[coughs]

- What'd you do this time? - Nothin'.

Ah, I missed dinner. Big deal, right?

'Cause of work, or because you were at the bar?

Ran into a guy I know.

I buy one, he buys one, we talk.

Next thing I know, it's 2:30.

Julie wait up?

In that creepy rocking chair I hate.

You gotta do something about this.

It's a circle game.

It'll work out.

- So where are we going? - Victim's family.

Coed strangled after a "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match.

I'll need an egg sandwich for this one.

Andi Simmons, 18.

'Found strangled in her dorm room'

day after her big win.

No sign of forced entry.

So she knew her attacker. Any candidates?

A Fritz Adams, the guy she beat.

Men's number one player, cops' number one suspect.

Senior guy loses to a freshman girl?

It's kinda hard to live down.

Especially when it's splashed all over the front page.

No alibi, but they still couldn't build

the case against him. Family lawyered him up. Job fizzled.

Other lead was some hang-up phone calls Andi was getting.

Someone calling and whispering "Superstar."

- Could've been Fritz? - Oh, he never copped to it.

Any chance this poisoned towel was a prank?

Well, the dose was practically lethal.

Where did they get the sodium nitrate?

Chemistry building at Penn U is right next to the courts.

Well, the towel narrows it down to someone close to Andi.

With access to her gear, the night of the match.

Thins out the suspect pool.

Vera and Jeffries are with the family, getting names.

Well...we already know one.

Fritz.

Might as well start with the top guy.

[Jeffries] 'See you're pulling up stakes.'

Yeah.

Dad's had enough Philly winters.

My sister lives in Palm Beach.

It'll be nice to live near family.

[Vera] 'So this towel Emily found'

could be a new direction on Andi's murder.

If my girl was poisoned, I don't see why you missed it.

Cause of death was strangulation.

I know that.

And standard autopsy doesn't test for poison.

The point is, someone had it out for Andi.

Any ideas why?

Envy.

'Cause of her talent?

What she had was rare.

This was no dime a dozen kid.

Know who might have tampered with her gear that night

planted this towel?

Course I do.

The guy you've been looking at for 33 years.

Fritz Adams.

Maybe this towel finally nails the bastard.

'Cause I know for a fact he loaned her another one.

When was that?

Week before the big match.

Saw it with my own eyes.

Argh! Damn it!

Screw this! Screw this match!

- Fritz. Calm down. - This is rigged.

- Lose, lose. - What's your problem?

I'm screwed, that's my problem.

I never should've agreed to this thing.

It doesn't help me if I win. I'm supposed to win.

You're a girl.

Thanks a lot.

But if I lose, I'm over.

So win.

♪ Oh darling when you're near me ♪♪

Fritz made a big show of laughing it off

when Andi won the big match

but I'd seen his true colors.

All his fears come true?

He tanked the season.

Never even tried the pros.

You see him with Andi

after the match at all?

Last time we saw her was out on court one after her win.

Surrounded by people toasting her.

Right, Em?

It's how I always remember her.

Yeah. Nothing's been right since.

Lost the brightest light in my life.

[instrumental music]

[indistinct chattering]

Fritz Adams?

Hi, there.

Here for the ladies' clinic?

Do we look like we're here for the ladies' clinic?

- What then? - Detective Rush, Miller.

It's about Andi Simmons.

I've been down this road way too many times.

The towel turned up, Fritz.

That supposed to mean something to me?

You tell us.

I give up.

The towel Andi used at your match

was laced with sodium nitrate.

Sodium what?

Ladies, I'm a jock. I don't do chemicals.

Well, maybe fear of getting whipped by a girl

got you to crack a book.

I lost a match.

That's no reason to kill someone.

Unless your temper got the best of you.

We hear you had a real meltdown

with Andi at a practice match.

You ever see John McEnroe chuck a racket?

That's just tennis.

But after she beat you

you lost any chance of going pro.

I had a one-time problem with Andi.

That was nothing compared to the girls

she was with day to day.

Her teammates?

Talk about a bunch of hens with ruffled feathers.

Who was the most ruffled?

Grace Andersen.

- The team captain? - And my girlfriend at the time.

[Carly Simon singing "You're So Vain"]

♪ You walked into the party ♪

She have something against skirts?

Let's just say she's more Billie Jean than Chrissie.

She's been in the paper like three times this week.

Four.

Oh! Thanks for joining us.

Am I late? I'm sorry.

- We have a challenge match. - I know.

It was supposed to start 10 minutes ago.

I was doing an interview.

We all know you're a big superstar, Andi.

- But tennis should come first. - You're right.

- This guy just kept talking. - Tell him you have practice.

And that being late is frowned upon.

I will. Promise.

Look, why don't you take a game for every minute I'm late?

Oh, right.

No, I mean it. I deserve it.

It's 6-0, 4-0 yours.

Two games away from winning. And you can serve.

♪ I'll bet you think this song is about you ♪

♪ Don't you ♪

♪ Don't you ♪♪

Andi still won?

0-6, 6-4, 6-0.

Grace didn't take a game?

She was a good captain, didn't vent in public.

- But behind closed doors? - Yeah.

She had a lot of bad nights.

Andi was making her crazy.

Think she could have poisoned this towel?

Grace was a grind, on the court and off.

Doesn't sound like an answer to me.

She was a chem major.

Spent half her time in the lab

and the other half on the court.

Giving her means, motive..

And opportunity.

So Andi's a phenom

Grace is a grinder.

[Jeffries] 'And they hate each other.'

Like Mozart and... that other guy.

Exactly. Saw it when I played college ball.

No one hates God-given talent

like a second-stringer.

Excuse me. You're Will, right?

Yes.

I'm Julie, Nick Vera's wife.

Of course, uh..

This is John Stillman and Scotty Valens.

- Nice to meet you. - Same here.

Nicky says nice things.

Well, he's out on the street. Have a seat. I'll call him.

We got some god-awful coffee.

No, that's okay.

Could you just give him this?

Uh, sure.

[Julie] 'Thanks.'

- Nice seeing you again. - Yeah.

Bye.

Way to go.

Crap.

I met her once, four years ago.

That'll help his cause

trying to get out of the woodshed.

I didn't know things were so bad.

Well, he didn't seem worried yesterday.

But this ain't a good sign.

[instrumental music]

[Rush] 'Met your old boyfriend, Grace.'

Fritz Adams?

Oh, really? Is he bald and fat?

I take it you're not in touch.

Uh, things didn't end well with us.

Uh, he said you had a little problem with Andi Simmons.

Oh, I wouldn't call it little.

A lot of fur flying between you two?

I was number one for three years

and then Andi takes it away.

For a high-strung, Type-A bulimic like me?

- Big problem. - You work all that out?

- Yes, thanks. - Yeah.

So when Andi and Fritz played

in the "Battle of the Sexes" who were you rooting for?

Oh, I was Switzerland, neutral.

I know if I'm choosing between my boyfriend

and a girl I despise, I'm going with the guy.

Maybe that's where the towel comes in.

Andi's towel was laced with sodium nitrate.

And I'm Marie Curie?

Crossed our mind.

I had a lot of things to work through back then.

Aforementioned emotional issues.

But?

I was in a study group the night

she was killed, for one thing

with three other people.

We'll need those names.

And more importantly Andi's win

actually meant something to me.

Women's lib, you know.

Oh, boy.

Was Andi a big activist?

No...and that was a problem.

Title IX protects women athletes.

I just think of myself as an athlete.

Hey.

leave your little backyard, kid.

- There's a revolution going on. - Huh?

Ever wonder why we have to use the chem building bathroom

to change for practice?

I guess I never thought about it.

The guys have a locker room.

According to Fritz, it's beautiful.

[female #1] 'Title IX gets us a locker room, a van'

Sounds like the coach was a dragon lady.

Breathing fire all over Andi.

Lot of sore points between them?

Biggest one was Andi's dad wanted Susan fired

not that it happened.

'Cause Andi died first.

I guess that's true.

You think Susan could've harmed her?

She was radical.

Believed in making change by any means necessary.

I ain't doing that interview.

You remember the "Battle of the Sexes" match in '73?

Court one, Andi Simmons

brought Fritz Adams to his knees.

That was a great day. I enjoyed it.

Good for the cause.

Knocked the bastards down a peg.

Fair to say you take a pretty extreme view on politics?

Have to.

No one gives you an inch without a fight.

And now, you've climbed all the way up to athletic director.

Say what you mean.

If Andi was getting in the way of your agenda--

She was good for my agenda.

She just needed enlightenment.

We also heard her dad wanted you fired.

'Cause he didn't wanna stop coaching her.

But after Andi died, you kept your job.

- I hear you. - So?

Bill was a tennis dad

overreaching pain in the ass.

We tussled over Andi.

Both wanted your piece of her.

'Cause she was so special.

But we came together when we ran into a real enemy.

[The Five Stairsteps singing "Ooh, Child"]

Run around, run around...nice!

♪ Ooh child ♪

We just had a three hour practice, Bill.

- Don't start. - She's my player.

Who put a racket in her hands when she was four years old?

Was that you, Susan, or was that me?

So this is the superstar

they're all talking about.

Arnold Brown, athletic director.

Oh, hey, hello, good to meet you.

Bill and Andi Simmons.

They say you're the next Billie Jean King.

I'd like to be.

And I hear there's a "Battle of the Sexes"

match scheduled?

Fritz Adams and I are playing.

Number one against number one.

Sounds like something you dreamed up, Susan.

Just trying to raise money, since we've got

such a crap budget.

Let me guess.

The trolls at the Women's Center

put you up to this.

No, I wanna play. I wanna win.

Well, that certainly would be interesting

uh, but problematic too.

Why?

These are complicated times, Andi.

A lot of demands being made.

I'm just going out there to play.

It's not complicated for me.

Still, this Title IX business is a slippery slope.

'We don't want to embarrass the university'

and we have an obligation to men's athletics.

[Bill] Embarrass? This kid is dynamite.

She's gonna make you proud.

It's harmless enough to have an exhibition game.

But an upset could stir the pot.

It'll be bad for everyone.

You mean, I should throw the match?

Due respect, I doubt Fritz needs the help.

You haven't seen what this girl can do.

And I always play to win.

Maybe I wasn't clear.

An upset is not a possibility.

And I'll be watching.

♪ La la la la la la ♪

♪ La la la la la la ♪♪

To him, that was the last word.

He was so sure Andi would just obey him.

And lose on purpose?

In his mind, that's what they had agreed to.

But then Andi won.

And was dead the next day.

Well, Penn athletic director, Arnold Brown

died four years ago.

Dead suspect? Love that.

He's all over these articles

on Title IX, big opponent.

The same guy who wrote those stories

covered Andi and women's tennis, Eric Witt.

I know that name.

He writes a sports column for thePhillyPost.

Well, maybe he can tell you how the AD took it

when Andi disobeyed him.

Heading over there.

You doing okay, Nicky?

Going home tonight.

By invitation?

Ambush.

She'll give me her "Come to Jesus"

I'll beg forgiveness

we'll settle back in.

Familiar drill, huh.

One that's getting less and less interesting.

May be time to change it up.

AD Brown went ballistic when Andi won that match.

Yeah, because now she's the poster child for Title IX.

And he wanted things to stay just like they were

women athletes, back of the bus.

So maybe he retaliated after Andi won?

Actually, I can vouch for his whereabouts that night.

Yeah?

He was at the paper, with me.

- Doing what? - Breathing down my neck.

Didn't want me to glorify her in the story.

But you kind of did, anyway.

You should have seen my first draft.

[Jeffries] 'You get any heat from the other players'

for all the press you gave Andi?

Grace Andersen didn't like it.

Well, Grace has an alibi.

Kind of relieved to hear that.

Why's that?

There...there was an incident at a reception.

- Forget it. - No, I gotta!

Got to admit..

...always wondered what she meant by that.

[instrumental music]

[Rush] 'You said you and Fritz broke up, Grace'

'but never mentioned why.'

He was a bad boyfriend.

Night before the match

we hear he was all over Andi.

Pawing her right in front of you.

He did that kind of thing.

Charming, huh?

Well...this night, it ticked you off enough

to promise Eric Witt a big story.

'Right?'

Premeditation is Murder One, Grace.

I have an alibi.

So maybe someone else did your dirty work.

I wasn't talking about Andi, that wasn't the story.

What then?

The towel.

I soaked it in sodium nitrate at the chem lab.

- Okay. - But the dose wasn't lethal.

I made sure of that.

You wanted to poison Andi so she'd lose the match?

No, the towel was meant for Fritz.

Your bad boyfriend.

Have you ever been dragged through the mud

so many times by a guy that you..

...lash out in an inappropriate way?

You consider poisoning someone "Inappropriate"?

He humiliated me.

So you wanted to humiliate him.

Make sure he lost.

But he didn't end up with the towel.

Late in the match Andi grabbed his towel by mistake.

Afterwards, I tried to get it back.

But that was a lie.

Did you hurt your daughter?

Of course not.

Then what?

I've tried to forget it.

Our last conversation.

You had a whole life together, Bill.

The last time you spoke doesn't define all that.

I was more than her dad.

I was her coach, her mentor.

And she was my best friend.

I couldn't give that up.

But Andi wanted something else?

[sighs]

Friends of her own.

A life outside of tennis.

The last time I saw my girl

I was trying to keep her from any of that.

[door creaks]

Nice work out there, kiddo.

Nine unforced errors, though.

Two double faults.

Still, I played well.

But you're still using that overhead backhand.

It just feels right.

But it's not disciplined.

After all the buckets we did I don't see

why you fall back on junk.

- I had some champagne. - Andi.

I'm afraid we're losing our focus.

'Someone keeps calling and hanging up.'

- 'Is it a boyfriend?' - No.

Hello!

Who is this?

- Dad. - You sleep off that alcohol.

- We'll pack up in the morning. - But I wanna stay here.

We're going on tour, Andi, and that's the end of it.

Dad, that's not what I want!

I know what you want better than you do.

We've got something special here

and we're not throwing it away.

- We? - That's right, we!

Who put a racket in your hand when you were four years old?

You did.

Who took you to every tournament?

- Every lesson? - You.

I spent 14 years making you what you are.

You act like you're not even grateful.

I didn't want her to get over me.

Didn't matter in the end.

I lost my girl.

You have another girl.

You ever find out who that caller was?

Wrong number, he said.

Then he...called me something

"Sport."

It stuck with me because it was odd.

"Occupational hazard. Falling for the athletes you covered."

Isn't that what you said?

Yeah.

That's why you were sweet on Grace.

Is that a crime?

No, but in '73, you were done

writing about Grace.

Now you were writing about Andi.

I might have nursed a light crush on her.

Well, you put her photo in the paper over and over.

Nothing...lightweight about that.

Something might've been growing.

Between you and Andi?

We might even have ended up together

if she-she wasn't killed.

[chuckles]

No.

How would you know?

Well...I know guys like you.

Always setting your sights too high

on girls that are..

...well, out of your league.

That's not true.

And when they give you the brush-off

you get frustrated...bitter.

"Bitch thinks she's better than me?"

I don't know what you're saying.

Andi didn't have feelings for you.

She never would've.

'She was a big tennis star'

'on the verge of going pro'

and you were just this little...fan.

I wasn't just some fan.

I put Andi Simmons on the map!

I know you called her that night.

Wrong.

And that you came to her room.

No, I didn't.

'Well, that's the paper that ran after she won.'

Didn't hit campus till the next day.

How else did it get in her room that night

underneath her dead body?

"Sport."

I just came to show her..

...what I did for her.

And she wasn't even grateful.

No, she wasn't.

Eric.

Is someone here?

No. Why?

Well, I just didn't wanna interrupt.

It's pretty late.

Yeah, but this can't wait.

Here, go ahead, read it.

You're the story. The superstar.

You know, Eric, that word is really starting

to creep me out.

I'm the...one who named you that.

It caught on, and everyone calls you that now.

But I was the first one.

Anyway..

I was the first one to see it.

And I see something else.

What's that?

I see..

...how great we could be together.

We?

Eric!

This is what you want.

How do you know? You don't even know me!

I don't know you? I write about you every day.

So?

Andi, geez, I'm the reason

you're in the paper!

No, you're not!

It's me, not we.

It's my life

and I don't need people telling me

what I want.

Boy, this has gone to your head.

You should leave.

You've gotten really stuck up.

I'm the one who made you here.

You might show some gratitude.

You're not even grateful.

Take your paper and go.

And stop calling me and hanging up.

I know it's you.

It's really pathetic.

I'm the one who made you!

- Eric! - You hear me, Andi!

I made you!
