the left get in don't say anything now

all this means is that if you err your

people do anything unexpected there's

gonna be a lot longer trip to do and in

mind go

Nikki I promise you the police agreed to

stay out of it until the exchange is

completed I don't think we should have

let him go alone that's the way they

wanted it I know it's the way they

wanted it and the way Mike wanted it

it's his case I offered to blow the

whole deal client and no client company

or no company I know but he makes it

sound like some kind of a game Oh we'll

save the company a quarter of a million

and I'll ride around in the sunshine for

a couple of hours and the safety of the

go-between Mike is just as important to

the thieves as it is to the company Oh

sort of the rules of the game huh

gentlemen's agreement something like

that yeah suppose they forget about the

rules and they're not gentlemen either

what's to prevent them from killing him

taking the hundred thousand and just

cutting out Nikki hey they want money

I count was just turned lose about a

mile from the stables thanks again Mike

no came up to me on the sidewalk he mr.

Woodleigh Khan I brought him a cup too

he was an escapee it was a big guy heavy

footsteps only put me in a car yeah like

a side of beef well why did you just

- take it easy for a while and have - yourself a nice cup of coffee

Madison listen I've got some errands to

run and then I'll go home and change

because our dinner reservation it's not

too late I don't want to just put in the

memo and then forget about it Mike

you're already a hero

we got the horse back for half the

insurance loss

you're okay my count is fine and already

back in a story understand yet Duke

first of all he picked me part at least

because I'm blind

well it probably entered into it and a

big guy here had a lot of fun with me

kicks from beginning to end

five seconds after I got in the car he

laid the barrel of a gun across my neck

we got to where we were going he made me

leave a cane behind so you'd think he

wouldn't need it anymore

an account of the money walked me right

into a wheelbarrow and he cocked a gun

and I didn't know if I was walking up to

a horse or about to pick up a bullet

then back to the head till I saw him

break out calm and quiet are you I

didn't what is it I'm not sure

Mike what exactly is it that you want I

want to find out where they took me and

I'm gonna identify both of them I'm

gonna be there when the big guy takes

the fall I thought you just said there

were two men

we haven't him I owe him

they're right to have a whole menu in

French restaurants that have those

little explanations in parentheses in

- English take the charm out of it - that's just what I was thinking sure you

Were

max come

what it's worth one inch on the map

equals ten statute miles I'm pretty sure

when they took my watch we're on ranma

terry road we were heading west and they

made a couple of turns to try and

confuse me did you turn off on causeway

Boulevard we didn't stop her slow down

for a tollbooth where we hit the highway

how that helps much Mike even if you're

right about going west there are four

highways Veterans Memorial interstate 10

airline and Jefferson all leading out of

town

I was Jefferson he he said Jefferson

when I took my watch away I started

checking my pulse rate I'm only average

about sending two beats per minute well

you were playing about 35 miles an hour

yes

I kept count on my pulse beats as long

as I could so I figure we went on at

that same speed for about 30 minutes

about 70 miles 70 miles I'm saying

that's roughly an inch and 3/4 on a map

okay now do you want the point of the

compass yeah Terry and Jefferson yeah

put it there Nikki and then draw an arc

- that intersects all four highways that - covers a lot of territory I know I've

Got a meeting tomorrow with Duke and

lieutenant Madison the lieutenant's

anxious to make captain art Duke and I

will check out the route ourselves okay

- that's all nice one thing Nikki a phone - call on the big guy made now you you go

Ahead you call a number any number just

just don't tell me I'm practicing

something

they called your place I counted clicks

okay what did he go see no I think it

was five five five eight five five five

six eight oh three amen and good night

Oh Pina telephones woodley received a

call from his wife's lawyer while we

were waiting for you

his wife's lawyer are they living under

the same roof gossip is same roof

separate rooms and for some time now

Nelson's gone to the office mr.

Longstreet oh sorry I didn't it stirred

you you haven't disturbed me as a matter

of fact I was interested in meeting the

young man who rescued Nelson's beauty

from the clutches of the heartless horse

snappers that's cruel isn't it I mean

loves anything it's fine I think he used

the word fund I never never in saying

love semantics I'm sorry I didn't mean

to smoke smoking doesn't bother me it's

really stupid isn't it forgive me but he

gave you some sort of fragile lung

- patient because you're blind it brings - out the protective instinct and women

Sensitive enough to have protective

instincts self-protective now are you

Mary I was divorced

no no she died you know it's not very

easy talking to you I mean every time I

probe I poke a finger into a wound no

that one's scars now you didn't really

expect to see nails in here did you

no I didn't and what do you want to talk

to me about I understand you and mr.

Woodley are very close to a divorce well

I don't see that that's any of your

business I'll divorce involves a

division of community property and by

counts a very valuable piece of property

it's true we were able to purchase him

back for a portion of his value but

$100,000 is still a lot of money and

your company would like to get it back

but I still don't see how we can help

you I mean any property settlement

that's arrived at if I can't won't be a

part of it I mean there's no connection

then between the fact that your lawyer

called my house yesterday while we were

- out trying to get the horse back I can - think oh I mean it's true I did ask him

To pry into any bank accounts there

might be and I am sorry the phone call

came at a time when Nelson was under

such strain but my days aren't easy

either

you know it's funny talking about a

divorce it's like talking about someone

who's died

I suppose each person does die a little

we had something

what's special not magical not

passionate but it seemed to satisfy us

for 15 years now where am I

I mean if I can't salvage pride at least

I'll take the money you don't want the

horse you're very diplomatic aren't you

you mean am i cruel enough to hurt my

husband by taking his money but not

quite cruel enough to hurt him by taking

the horse he loves well that's a good

explanation I have to leave some kind of

mark on him a scholar for him to match

your honor yes I have some to attend a

Madison this is Mike Longstreet mr.

Longstraw lieutenant oh you don't think

we met before

we haven't attended last night I worked

at some locations where I think the

exchange could have taken place there

and not exact locations reference points

mike has a map with some possible routes

marked I should explain that mr.

Longstreet I believe that police work

should be done by policeman well no

- tenants all right Mike you'll just never - win any popularity contests my idea if

You want to be a policeman take a test

and a badge do the job that's very well

put lieutenant now you tell me where I

show up for the physical I'm sorry no no

that's all right I I think I understand

what you're trying to say it's true oh

yeah I am a little vague about the

locations but but I do have descriptions

that two men based upon what I could

hear and what I could sense

suppose we talk about those and even

check them out fair enough

they should be a bakery up ahead

well as you bakery on the left there

should be an intersection with a stop

light or a stop sign

is the intersection but there's no stop

light or sorry

I'm sure I'm right at the bakery though

there was an intersection when the

driver had stopped his iMac there was no

stop sign any you made a sharp right

turn at the next stop

all right let's go to stop and turn

right okay

it's just one let's go on to the next

one that should be it okay

Mike it's a dead end

yeah

alright alright thanks very much Thank

You lieutenant medicine yes they're

checking out my impressions of both men

negative so far it's been a brilliant

day all around I met a nice lady is not

- too fond of her ex-husband to be in a - cop who's not too fond of private cops

But what about the map we worked on

didn't it check out yeah I checked out

six different places see there's a

bakery in a side street no stoplight on

Memorial now for variety there's there's

a bakery and no side street on Williams

Road now there's no bakery but there is

a side street and stoplight at Jefferson

Highway and Hickory unfortunately right

and turn I remembered put Duke and me

into a blind alley sorry to say that

airline highway doesn't check out at all

but by following up another piece of

promising information found out that

Nelson Whitley owns vyq out free and

clear divorce or no divorce he could

sell that horse tomorrow for $250,000

what does that got to do with it you

know neither something else is funny

remember when I came back from checking

out the horse Woodley asked about me he

congratulated me he didn't ask about the

horse as if he wasn't concerned as if

just somehow he knew the horse would be

okay well been a long day I think I had

one more no yes Mike it's Duke thank you

yeah do it

Mike I was working late and I got to

thinking which one my salary I resent

but I just called a friend of mine in

row Department go on he says they were

working on the street yesterday at the

intersection of Memorial and David and

they had to put up one of those

temporary stoplights

you mean near the bakery yeah and we

went one stopped right it could be

exactly as you remembered it all right

good thanks thanks very much it's okay

pal I'll give you a buzz the morning

that's why the driver was surprised why

you hit the brake unexpectedly probably

driven that route 12 different times

when there was no stoplight you mean

they were rehearsing the whole kidnap

timetable yes well maybe I don't know

maybe you had some other reason to be

from

with around Nikki I I wound up in some

barn in that rural area as David

Memorial pharmacy we can find out who

owns farms that area would you okay well

if you want to call it a day oh wait a

minute wait a minute if I was I was

right about that stuff but maybe I

wasn't so far off about that phone

number either wife you know how many

possible combinations there are with the

numbers five five five six eight oh

three but I was I was trying to count

while he was dialing maybe try to get

him this time make the last digit four

five five five six eight oh four hello

yes who is this please open you wish to

speak 200 we were trying to reach phone

and prayer sorry

well it was a lady with a French accent

so we're still not sure if that's the

right number still I know that number

belongs to you okay

who wasn't wrong number

lucky shot hey there's a man who where

to see you just don't I'm talking in a

game of chance do they hang with him hi

Eddie

I'm Mike Longstreet oh yeah

the guy who brought Vikon back for us

did a nice job yeah Thanks so do you

how's he looking

oh it says it's fine you wanna come over

and say hello yeah sure thanks fellas

yeah thanks oh how are you this morning

yes well his fine is the Longstreet you

know that's what I noticed about him

even yesterday they took us whoever

- grabbed him me yeah they seem pretty - calm he said champion oh I know my dear

Championship thoroughbreds they

generally they're generally high-strung

aren't they I mean they tend to get

little nervous when they're on and

strange people in strange places yeah

so you can see that just didn't happen

flight counter I know I didn't hurt

EDIUS things developed you ever have a

number where I can reach him sure that's

one reason the driver would have kept

- silent distinct discernible Spanish - accent even if it were already Gomez he

Would have no reason to expect him to

see you again so why would he keep quiet

wrong reasons because chances are pretty

good he's gonna be in the winner's

circle the name of the races answering

questions in front of a million TV

- viewers including myself what's the - motive I don't know that yet what I

Don't know is the first time he checked

- out the horse the same horse that he and - Woodley bred trained and groomed but he

Waits until the morning after the horses

returned before he checks him out

Woodley went up there immediately yeah

well he was right under our noses Mike I

wrote the policy on my count and I know

a little bit about these people

Eddie Gomez came here from Puerto Rico

and he was a kid he understood about

five words of English and the word he

understood the best was hungry now Eddie

Gomez leaves and three things besides

his religion

the United States of America Nelson

Woodley and a horse named by count and I

wouldn't want to have to list in an

order yeah maybe that's why I'd go along

with you make I'm part of a kidnap

scheme make sure nothing really did

happen to my account anybody helping his

boss and his benefactor Woodley Mike you

yourself told me yesterday that woody

could sell by count-out right well

whatever figure he wanted to name but he

can't get a loan on his own signature

for 10,000 bucks how do you know that

after your phone call last night I asked

Nicki to follow up on a few things last

week Woodley applied for a $10,000

signature only loan at three separate

banks and he was turned down because his

wife's lawyers have tied up everything

he has except by account

you have any idea what he needed the

10,000 for Nikki could be tied up to a

phone number that Mike had Nicole last

night

it's the same number Duke the big guy

called from the barn it's registered to

a photographer we did a layout a year

ago on the Woodley mansion and stable a

- young French girl named Michelle Amy - when I talk to mrs. Whitley she was

Saying one thing but something else was

coming through described her marriage is

not special not magical not passionate

like someone who was defending a car

that he got on a style I feel like the

first time I wore bikini

I'm not sure what you're expecting of me

well I know you're a freelance

photographer miss Amy and I also know

you're acquainted with Nelson Woodley it

was an assignment that ollie what if

you're trying to frighten me you are

succeeding why should you be frightened

I read in the papers that the woodies

are getting a divorce

are you working for his wife do you hope

to make some money buy no no no so I got

that horse back I made as much money out

of this case as I'm going to make

then why are you here I'm here because

- whoever stole that horse call this - number and check in with who with with

You

Woodley I don't know what you're talking

about

he said we're wrapping it up then he

repeated it as if he wasn't being

understood I said goodbye mr. Longstreet

left town what about four months ago

Thanks Thanks oh yes and you came back a

few weeks ago you want to know where

I've been the last month that crossed my

mind I could understand your curiosity

if you were working for his wife she

must be upset unhappy does that concern

you

I could also understand if you hope to

gain some kind of money I asked you why

you mean blackmail that's a word money

is a fact but if those two reasons don't

apply then

it's a personal matter I was born on

Corsica when my father used that phrase

in that tone of voice he was carrying a

shotgun I was in Copenhagen on holiday

it is as simple as that I don't think so

you understand I'm gonna have to keep

going until I find the truth regardless

of who is heard regardless of who is

Harry Thanks oh I understand I believe

this take pictures don't your mansions

and throw a white horses mr. wrong

Street I have never closed the camera

lens simply because something was

painful or tragic explored

already Oh the workout go a minute and

10 you're gonna get lonesome in that

race out there in front all by yourself

I have to go to the police station in

the morning mr. Wooley oh but why I

don't know this lieutenant from the

detective bureau call me after I took to

this guy long street and he wants me to

look at some pictures so go look at some

pictures they know something mr. wooly

before the cop hung up he asked me how

tall I was and where I was the data by

count was returned Eddie there's nothing

to be afraid of I never been to a police

station what if they know Eddie he's

blind and they're in the dark now you

worked for me for a long time you've

trusted me I've never given you any

reason to regret trusting me no sir

that's better I want you to bring me the

money and tell Murphy that I said to

catch a plane I want him out of New

Orleans out of the country now be very

careful that Murphy doesn't see you're

frightened or worried I'm sorry in some

ways that we ever got involved with him

once he's on a plane all you and I have

- to think about is the race the race in - the Laurel Roses hitting

And he called no longstreet was here

yesterday to see me no see me I think oh

poor me thought I might have a reason to

steal your horse I didn't you know thank

you Oh Nelson how tired you look like a

fox running an ever narrowing circle is

she worth it yes

how's the farm listed still in the name

of a maiden at who left it to him years

ago it's starting to make sense

pieces are beginning to fit together do

you think you had a call lieutenant

medicine what I call him I want to be

able to say this is the place where I

was taken this is the place where a vai

- count was held and it belongs to Nelson - Woodley

I suppose were wrong suppose it's not

where you would take and suppose you're

wrong about Eddie Gomez

both holy

Nikki

this is it Mike what is it

mr. Hong's tweed Michelle may I come in

yes thanks for where do you want I'm

looking for Woodley why do you come here

I came here because it's already a squad

car full of detectives at his house

eventually unless they locate him I'm

gonna find their way here detective why

what has he done

I think you had something to do with the

murder of a man named Eddie Gomez no

somebody hanged him to stable at an old

farm farm that belongs to Woodley you

know where he is can you reach him

please give me a minute

you don't know anything about this to do

just that Nelson told me to expect a

phone call the one you overheard nothing

more you would not kill not for any

reason then he got himself involved with

someone who would did you know and Eddie

Gomez are a big man that used to hang

around with him no Michelle why would

Willie want to borrow $10,000 I don't

know don't you do with your trip to

Copenhagen oh please I wouldn t might

not kill that he'd steal for you not for

me the doctor's private nurses the

private ones

I don't understand you don't quite know

it all do you mr. Longstreet

after the Danish King Fred way Nelson

says it's a very good name for a boy in

this country because the nickname is

Fred which is very manly

it's a

it's a very good name issue

you broke the case for Mike every police

force in six states is looking for

Woodley now and the other man I wish I

know who he was

I'll find him Jackie no he's dead within

those two hours your honor

you were right from beginning to end why

do I feel so empty I don't I feel like I

accomplished something

good night Nicky get some rest

- what you see in the morning yeah thanks - come on

Yeah still a long day oh boy I bet

you're hungry huh let's see we can't

find you a boner second Lisa come on

oh is it

Nelson Woodley I have to see you

Michelle hold me listen I didn't kill me

I think where's the other man he was

supposed to put him on point it can't be

his name is murky Charles Murphy yeah

she put him up where is he now

I don't know I hardly knowing yet he

needed help II found him in a bar

somewhere I only wanted to borrow

$10,000 for Michelle but she went for

$100,000 I'm getting a divorce

I don't have access to any ready cash so

you stole your own horse I negotiated

with the insurance company Murphy said

we couldn't just ask for the ten

thousand it seems so easy especially

with Eddie to make sure that nothing

really happened to the horse I was gonna

pay off Murphy keep what I needed and

return the rest of the insurance company

anonymously I needed the ten thousand

- for my son don't you think it's about - time you call the police

Put the dog away long feet are all right

now just freeze what are you doing here

Murphy

how'd you know my name answer me I told

him I've been looking for you you got

something that belongs to me why don't

you kill any but you put the fear into

him he's gonna send me out of the

country five minutes at headquarters he

would have given my name my address my

social security number what do you want

we had a hundred grand said he wanted me

to take five and split can you believe

that

I want the money your little pal that he

stashed it someplace after we took him

back we know where it is and told you

then what

make your deal Whitley you tell me where

the money is you live I figure you'll

keep your mouth shut to save your own

neck what about him well he knows about

you and you can identify me

so can the police I just call him

it's got a call from Woodley wants to

turn himself in or is he Longstreet's

plays I'm on my way over I'll go with

you

what about it Woodley yeah oh think

look at that jockey you put it I don't

know can't talk anymore you're the one

that's been pushing me all along

I think of how I could have given it to

you so easy in that barn the other day I

have a feeling that thought crossed your

mind they're taking all the money

sitting on some beach in Rio right now

watching the Latin chicks in their

bikinis what do you do now Murphy huh

let it all get you and where do you go

he police all over the place looking for

you just shut up let me think you've

added under your weight your whole life

for one big score and when you at least

expected it drops right in your lap

you're almost on your way there's always

something there to stop you something or

somebody murphy don't I'm not gonna kill

you Longstreet not yet you're gonna help

me get out of town we're not the money

Willie can't just leave him here

guy give me a car okay take it easy

Helen I'm calling in it'll be here in a

minute

count perhaps slightly in the lead

increasing it and that's it by count by

no more than a length and a half has

just won the greatest victory of his

racing career I've just in time right
