Well, you really can't
see it in this picture, Tony.

But there's a pier right
behind the house on the bay.

And if we bought it, Jack
could keep a sailboat.

I mean, it would be just perfect.

Yes.

And as your friend, Janet, I agree.

You know I want Jack
to enjoy these years, too.

But as your business
manager, well, there

just isn't a spare
100,000 lying around.

Couldn't you just sell some stocks,
cash in some of the insurance?

What is it?

That guy.

That's the second time.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[thunder]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Is this all of them?

Except for this roll
that I took this morning.

Mr. Seymour, can you see these?

I've seen enough.

I think I'm stupid.

It's the courtship ritual, isn't it?

What are you waiting for?

My money.

$500 plus 1250.

I made it out for $600.

What's the difference?

You and your picky little account?

I'll get out of here.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[thunder]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

I think I'll come in for a minute
and see if he needs me for anything.

Huh.

Go back to the car.

Go back to the car.

Wait there, now.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[thunder].

Jack?

You ought to be handling
things, Mr. Howard.

Who are you?

What are you doing here?

I'm Ray Kaufman.

I work for Mr. Seymour.

Jack?

That's right.

You took these.

You're the man I saw.

What'll he say before he pulled the plug?

The treachery of my friends,
the faithlessness of my wife,

the infirmities of age, to
hell with it all, Jack Seymour.

That's-- that's not the way it was.

What?

We're-- we're shopping for a
birthday present here for Jack.

Only you know how to make it
look like something else, don't you?

I just take him.

I don't write the captions.

Tony, what happened?

Is Jack all right?

I'll be right there.

Poor Janet, this is going
to be horrible for her.

Well, she's a young woman.

Lots of money, insurance.

No, there's no insurance
because it was suicide.

We took out the policy
less than two years ago.

Anyway, it isn't the half million dollars.

What am I going to tell her?

What are you doing?

I'm going to save her
that half a million dollars.

I'm going to make it look like
he was killed by an intruder.

They pay insurance for that.

Now, look, don't worry.

I know just what I'm doing.

I used to be a homicide
detective, and I put the gun down.

No.

Look, I've got about 15
minutes before the cops get here.

I've got to start now.

Now, you care so much about her,
let's get her the half a million dollars.

All I want is 10 grand.

Deal?

For 10 grand?

Deal?

Forget it.

Okay.

What now?

Now, don't tell her that I'm here.

Tell her about the intruder.

Give me a couple of minutes
before you call the cops.

That should give me enough time.

And get me a pair of
shoes out of the closet.

[music]

One shot through the temple, close range.

You said this was kept in
the bedroom at the hour?

Yes, it's part of a set
for the fireplace in there.

He must have picked it up and come
in here when he heard the intruder.

You see, his gun, that would
have been in the top desk drawer

where I suppose the
burglar could have found it.

It was a Beretta, I believe, a .25 caliber.

Did we find the gun yet, Robert?

Not yet, but we found the slug over here.

A slug?

It hardly dug itself in at all.

The force is pretty spent, I guess.

It looks like a .25, all right.

How about the bedroom,
the rest of the house?

Anything missing?

Nothing else broken
into, just the French doors,

the desk and that curio cabinet over there.

It's got a bunch of African things in it.

Looks like the victim came
in before anything was taken.

[music]

Why don't we just start with tomorrow
and go through the month day by day,

looking at the conjunction of each planet?

[music]

[door opening]

[music]

[music]

I got to know for sure, Sherry.

This guy, Jerry, the one I met at work,
he wants to go away for the weekend.

Your chart shows the moon
in Aries over the weekend.

Do you know what scientist Jerry is?

I don't know.

Excuse me.

Sorry.

Sherry, I'd like to talk with you.

Your husband?

Yes.

Well, it's only 9 o'clock.

I've got another hour, don't I?

You're interrupting.

I'm sorry.

You'll have to go.

What is this?

I'm paying 100 bucks a month for
consultation and I get hustled out?

I've got important personal
decisions, Mr. Hoffman.

I will make it up to you another time.

I'm sorry.

I'll just run through
the rest of this quickly.

I don't want it quickly.

Don't shout at me.

This is what I pay for?

This is beautiful.

[crash]

Howdy.

Elaine.

[car door closing].

600 dollar check made out of RK.

Mr. Howard, who's RK?

That's Jack's personal account.

I have no idea.

Crocker.

Get the forensic man up here with
his big magnifying glass, all right?

See if we can't get a name off
that indentation on our next page.

Thank you, Mr. Howard.

I found this in the pocket of his robe.

Thanks, Doc.

Sherry, 10 thousand dollars.

No hitches, no taxes, no cash.

And the bank opens at 9.

For what?

For what?

Well, the guy I was taking
pictures for shot himself tonight.

I happened to be in the house when
he was found by his business manager.

And I made it look like he
was killed by an insured end.

That's what the 10 thousand dollars is for.

Why?

So his wife can collect the insurance.

You couldn't get into trouble for that?

Oh, come on, honey.
Now you're talking to a detective.

I know what I'm doing.

How much does she get out of it?

Half a million.

10 thousand.

And she gets half a million.

(phone rings)

Hello.

Ray Coughlin.

It's for you.

Hello.

Ray Coughlin.

Yeah, what's this?

This is Stavros, Manhattan South.

I worked with you on the Espinoza
Kill about three years ago, remember?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, how you been, Stavros?

Fine, thanks.

Hey, listen, you work
in private now, right?

For a guy named Jack Seymour.

He made a check out to you today.

We pulled your number
from his... Hello, Coughlin.

Yeah, get down here, will you?

Your client's dead.

Who is this?

This is your ex-Lieutenant
Kojak, remember me?

Put it in gear, get down here.

Nice talking to you.

Ray, you can't tell them
you were here all night.

Elaine saw you come in.

She even checked her watch.

It was nine o'clock.

Well, they're never
gonna find out about it.

Now, come here.

You take her name out of your
files, give her her money back.

Tell her that we're
leaving the city and that's it,

and I was with you from seven o'clock on.

And that is a lie.

Come in, that is our story.

Oh, I'd love to see that Kojak.

Try and get me to go back on that.

We were here together,
talking, watching TV.

I'll check the TV listings, make
sure we know exactly what was on.

Right.

Ray, I'm not gonna blow this.

You be careful.

Sweetheart, this is a
good thing for us, isn't it?

You know, it wasn't right, you
bringing in so much of the money.

Cash, no checks, nothing to trace.

You said it, sweetheart.

I mean, if we had just got
home five minutes sooner.

- Saperstein. - Yes, sir.

Take Mrs.
Seymour to wherever she wants to stay.

Right.

I don't believe it.

I don't believe it.

I was just here three, four hours ago.

No sign of trouble, nothing.

You know Mr. Howard,
don't you, Mr. Kaufman?

- No, I don't think so.
- What did he do for you?

He was Mr. Seymour's business manager.

How come he didn't pay you?

Mr.
Seymour didn't want anyone else to know.

Oh, know what?

Well, that he was a good man.

He was a good man.

Well, he was worried.

The neighborhood intruders, he wanted me to check
out security precautions,things like that.

He didn't want to worry the missus.

Yes, he did mention that
to me a few months ago,

about locking up the house
tighter when they were away.

How much did he pay you?

Six hundred, expenses.

And how many times?

Twice, I think.
It was supposed to go on a regular basis.

It's $500 weekly. It's like a retainer.

Until I get things worked out.

We keep that retainer
going, aren't we, Mr. Howard?

I mean, if Mr. Seymour's
gonna be staying

here, I should have
security checked out.

That's great.

Kojak, if there's any way,
anything I can do to help, just ask.

Being a private detective,
it isn't like it is in the movies.

I missed the force, pal.

You took the payoffs, baby.
You blew your own career.

Did you ever make a mistake, Evan?

How's this for openness?
Putting you on a squad?

Listen, you got your money's worth.
I was good.

I cracked the showcase.
I put Eddie Wagner away. You know that?

I wouldn't care if you put
the entire syndicate away.

The minute you
stuck your hand out

and graphed it for
more than apples, baby,

there's no way I could turn my back.

You know something, Ray, I
never could understand about you?

You're in the top 10% on the evaluation
reports, sure to make first grade.

Now, tell me something.
What the hell happened?

I had reasons.

There better be good
ones, because you gotta

live with them for
the rest of your life.

Here's what I want you to do.
I want a complete written report.

What time you got here, pick up your
check, exactly what was talked about,

when you left, and one thing more.

Exactly where you went when you left here.

Okay. I'll swim.

Lieutenant, forensic found
some footprints outside.

They're making plaster casts.

You trying to stick me with $500 a week?

Look, just see that I get
my $10,000 by tomorrow.

Cash, not traceable.

And if those are bloodstains
on your pants, get rid of them.

And that's worth $500 more.

[Music]

Well, Scheinblom confirms
how to burn's on his right hand.

So we could figure he struggled
for the gun, it went off by accident.

He wasn't a strong man
anymore, Frank. Anybody

could have arrested
that poker for him.

They didn't have to kill him.

Unless of course this certain somebody
was afraid of being recognized and

had to kill him.

Like who?

The fact is anybody would know him
would also know there really wasn't much

that word stealing up there.

Unless you're desperate for a
bunch of stuffed animal heads.

Yeah, well maybe this certain somebody
has something else in mind, you know.

Maybe picking up a legal
document or paper, I don't know.

Maybe busting into this curio cabinet.

Maybe there was a cover-up
for the real thing, huh?

Somebody with a bum leg?

Come again?

Look at these heel
marks on this plastic ass.

Oh yeah, the right side went
down like you had a gimp.

Didn't the doctors say
Seymour had a bad leg?

Crack!

Why don't you get down
to Seymour's house,

pick up every pair of
shoes he ever owned.

What about the ones he was
wearing when he was killed?

He was wearing slippers, bright eyes.
What's this?

He brought them over from the lab.

They're from a roll of film
they found in Seymour's pocket.

Looky here.

The victim's widow and a business manager.

The lab says from the
compression it looks like it was taken

with a 200 millimeter lens like
somebody was spying on him.

Now look, when you get back, I
want you to know all the background

information on both of these two, okay?

Good.

Good night.

10,000 cash.

Unmarked bills from
my own safe deposit box.

So I don't see how they can ever be traced.

Now I think you should leave
here as soon as possible.

And don't ever be in touch with me again.

Well, Mr. Hart, I work for you now.

I'm on a retainer. That's 500 bucks a week.

You've got your money.
That's all you're gonna get.

Don't talk down to
me, Mr. Howard. You

got your hand out just
like everybody else.

Now you were the one who yelled for help.

And I saved you a bacon.
Now don't forget that.

All right.

I'm grateful to you.
Let's just leave it at that.

We'll do it as we planned.

But you don't have to come here
anymore and risk getting us caught.

Nobody's gonna get caught,
so stop sweating like a guilty kid.

You'll ruin your $300 suit.

Make sure you got those blood
stains taken care of. Don't forget it.

I'll take care of the pants.
I'll send them out today.

Sure you don't want to change your
mind about that $500 week retainer?

Get out.

Now wait a minute.

Get out and stay out.

[Silence].

Well, Mrs. Tyburn,
I've got to have that run

on the computer by
tomorrow at the latest.

Well, I've got two clients coming in.

Yeah, the Capricorn and the Leo.

Listen, Sherry, I would never give
you a stall, but I got this new client

from a dating service.

He needs a whole new program run.

Mrs. Tyburn, you put files 202 and
103 into that machine, and don't tell me

somebody else's problems.

I want those projections
delivered tomorrow.

Now, what's the matter with you?

What's the matter with me?
I got to use the phone.

Well, did you get the money?

Yeah, here.

It just occurred to
me I left to roll the

film at Seymour's
when I took it to Cafe.

Hello, Photo Lab.

Well, this is Detective
Cleary at Manhattan South.

Look on that Seymour case.

Did they run that film through yet?

I see. Okay.

No, no, no. Nobody told me.

Okay, thank you.

Ray, do we have trouble?

No. No, no.

No, why should there be trouble?

It's Howard holding hands with Mrs.
Seymour.

For them, it's trouble.

And for us, it's the exact same.

Sorry, look at this.

Howard handed me this gun.

Got his fingerprints on it.

All right.

And without this note.

Sherry, how would you like to be
in a beach in Brazil in about a week?

I've got that snotty little business
manager's head in a noose.

He's going to pay through the
teeth for me to save his skin.

Not $10,000.

Sherry, that's a hundred
big ones with a suicide note.

How does that grab you?

Why Brazil? Why not Paris?

Paris, all right. Whatever you want.

Hundred thousand, that's not bad, is it?

Bad?

Well, it doesn't make you onassis, honey.

But it's not bad.

Don't you think
it's very odd that an

intruder should wear
a dead man's shoes?

Well, the intruder, so to speak.

Obviously, he didn't want to leave
an impression from his own shoes.

If that is, he really was an intruder.

Now, did any of
you notice anything

weird with those photos
that forensic took?

Seymour's bedroom. So?

So, I was looking at him five minutes ago.

And those little questions came
into my mind. Little wee ones.

Now, how tall was Seymour? 6'1", 6'2"?

Yeah, so what about it?

So what about it?

Well, we got a wall here with lots
of pictures and a couple of mirrors.

Now, there's one mirror here.

It's about 5'3" off the ground.

Now, how would you like to
comb your curly locks like this?

Hmm?

Anybody look behind the mirror?

So let's go?

So, let's go.

(Music)

(Music).

Saperstein's bringing
Mr. Seymour over

here and Howard should
be here any minute.

There's the boat hole.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

So, the victim and Howard, they get in
an argument over Mr. Seymour in here.

Howard and Seymour grapples for the gun.
He kills him.

Mm-hmm.

Well, this is the same kind of rug
that the body was found on in the den.

How come? If he was killed in
here, Howard drags him into the study.

Oh, because if he was killed way
over there by the bed, it wouldn't look

like he walked in on an intruder, you see?

Crocker! Yeah.

Go get a warrant, a search
warrant for Howard's apartment.

You, hmm, follow me.

The only thing I'm worried about
is that Miller girl who was having a

reading when I came home.

Well, she's here right now.

I owed her some time from that night.
She just walked in on me.

Didn't you tell her we were leaving?

Yes, I'm trying to make that clear to her.

Okay.

Anything wrong, Texas?

Sorry, can't talk about it.

I'm not a Manhattan South.
You find me at this number.

All righty, thank you.

Oh, thank you.

You're a perfect Scorpio, Elaine.

Easy to anger, passionate in love.

Don't humor me. I'm bugled.

You can't quit on me.

Not after what happened
between me and Jerry last night.

You can't dump me with
this animal and no guidance.

Elaine, we're leaving, moving.

You're setting me up for more money.

You know I wouldn't do that.
How can you think so?

Um, no.

I could go to the vetter business bureau.

You got a license for this?

What about the IRS, Sherry?

You report this income?

So you just think it over, hmm?

Oh, Elaine. Elaine?

You have no idea who took these pictures.

Well, I suppose Jack could have taken
them, but they have no significance.

Certainly nothing suggestive.

My God, what's going on?
What are you all getting at?

Lieutenant?

I got to tell you something the other day.

I was here after the killing.
I noticed the rug under the victim.

And it wasn't in the study
when I was here before.

So I did a little checking on Mr. Howard.

And I found these at his cleaners.

Put a couple of pins on
the spots that look like blood.

Tony, what is this man talking about?

I, uh, I knelt over
the body, lieutenant.

Of course there could
be blood on my pants.

Up here along the waist?

I figured he got the spots when he
picked up the rug with the body in it.

Oh, shut up, Kaufman.
Don't talk in front of them.

Go, Jack.

Lieutenant Crocker, we're
over here at Howard's.

And I've got some goodies for you.

I've got the shoes, some more
pictures of Howard and Mr. Seymour.

And a .25 caliber Beretta, which
I'll run to Ballistics right now, okay?

Yeah.

You can tell me where I could find a
pair of, uh, Mr. Seymour's shoes and

the gun, would you?

Oh, no, of course not.
How could we know that?

Because they were just found
in Mr. Howard's apartment.

Stavros, read of his rights.

Yes.

Tony, I just don't understand any of this.

You have a right to remain silent.

If you choose to
give up that right,

anything you say may
be held against you.

You have a right to an attorney.

No, no, wait a minute.

You may be present.

Wait a minute, I'm not
gonna hide this anymore.

Stavros.

Janet, Jack committed suicide.

No, no.

And this man was in the
house at the time, Lieutenant.

He got to the bedroom right after I did.

He took those pictures for Jack.

When I told him Janet
would be cheated out

of the insurance
because it was suicide,

he came up with the idea
to make it look like a killing.

So we carried Jack's
body into the study together.

And then I came down here to be with you.

And he arranged everything else.

He took the gun, the shoes, yes,
and Jack's suicide note with him.

After he faked the break-in.

Okay. I took pictures for Mr. Seymour.

You don't like me for that, do you?

You trying to do a job on me, right?

Lieutenant, at the time of the
murder, I was home with my wife.

That's not true.

You were right here.

I paid you $10,000 today for your help.

Mr. Howard, you have a
record of that transaction?

I know. I went to a lot of
trouble not to have any record.

And, Mrs. Seymour, did you
see Mr. Kaufman in the house?

No.

I don't know how you did it, but you
put that gun and those shoes in my

apartment.

You told me to take
those pants to the cleaners.

Now, what did you do
with Jack's suicide note?

Boy, oh, boy.

Cops, private
detectives, somebody's

always trying to
turn us into fall guys.

Yes, I took pictures of these two.

No, I never heard of a suicide note.

No, $10,000.

No phony story about carrying
nobody from room to room.

And if you keep talking like
that, I'm going to see you in court.

Mr. Howard, I'm afraid
you'll have to come

down with us and
make a further statement.

But, but, whatever Tony said, I, I
mean, you wouldn't lie, Lieutenant.

It has to be the truth.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Seymour.

That may not be up to me to decide.

Well, then who?

A jury.

Oh, thank you.

They're just taking a statement
from your husband, Mrs. Kaufman.

He shouldn't be too much longer.

You do horoscopes?

You get a chance someday,
give me the details of your birth.

I have it run through a computer.

Oh, of course, I have
to interpret the printouts.

It's just raw data on the
planets, their conjunctions.

So with your clients, you do
that from 8 to 10 every night, right?

At least that's what your janitor tells me.

Says you do a pretty good business, too.

Well, except for last Wednesday.

I told you, Ray was here
with me that night all night.

I just didn't happen to have
anyone scheduled that evening.

Well, hello, Stavros.

Something they forgot to
ask me down at the station?

Just doing my job, Kaufman. You know that.

Right.

Okay.

Thanks, Mrs. Kaufman.

See you, Kaufman.

Yep.

Any problems?

With him? Any problems with you?

Howard's story won't hold up.
Now, did you get a hold of his lawyer?

Yeah, at the Tombs.

I am an anonymous do-gooder
who happened to find a suicide note

who will be happy to accept
a reward of 100,000 bucks.

And what did he say?

He's going to talk it
over with his clients.

Well, that means he
knows that Howard

can't get off the
hook without it, huh?

Listen, Sherry, take a
look at our horoscopes.

What did they say for us?

I did, Ray.

And in our second house,
our house of money,

we are going to make a killing.

(laughs)

I say we go to the police
with this immediately.

Tell them you suspect it's Mrs. Kaufman.

But you said that
she'd destroy that note

if there was any
indication of betrayal.

I mean, can we risk that?

It's the only chance I
have of clearing myself.

I feel like such a fool.

Tony, I think you did make a
terrible mistake, but I understand why.

You did it for me.

Look, Mr. Meyenberg, there
are certain stocks that we can sell.

No. I don't want you to do that.

You'll take a terrible beating
on the market the way it is.

Tony, we have to do it.

Look, this woman's
calling my office tonight.

Is it yes, then?

Yes. Go ahead.

I can give you a list
of what we should sell

and tell her we'll have the cash
by four o'clock tomorrow afternoon.

You know this doesn't clear the slate.
You still have problems.

Yes, I know.

Kaufman told me that from the beginning.

Yes, Mr. Meyenberg.

Oh, yes. Of course.

Yes, I can bring it there.

Thank you, Mr. Meyenberg.

Well, are we in business?

The Skimbles' stock patios.

I take the note to them. Give it to me.

Yeah.

I meet Meyenberg outside Grant's tomb.

He gives me the payoff in cash,
nothing bigger than hundreds.

When?

They can't get a hold of the
money for a couple of days.

Probably the day after tomorrow.

He'll call again. Let me know for sure.

Not until the day after tomorrow.

Don't worry. Just go to your office
tomorrow. Make like nothing's happening.

I'll take care of it all on Tuesday.

We don't even pack. Just pick up
the money and split to the airport.

Hello?

Sherry? This is Elaine.

I have had it.

There is no Jerry anymore.

You could have told me this
would happen, but you didn't.

Elaine, listen.

You got money problems, Sherry?

You look in your own horoscope.

You're going to have every kind of
tax and license and IRS problem I can

bring down on you.

First thing in the morning
after I get off work.

Look, she is not going to blow the
whistle on us in a couple of days.

I don't care, but not
until I see the money.

Now, will you talk to her, Sherry?

She won't listen to me. She hates me.

Where does she live?

Elaine Miller, she's in the directory. Why?

Ray. Ray, what are you doing?

I'm going to catch her
in the morning after work.

Talk to her so that she
doesn't cause any trouble.

We're close, baby.

You realize how close we are?

Paris.

Paris. I can almost taste it.

It's 8.30.
You going to walk in that cement all night?

Hey, Frank.

What did you take of Ray Kaufman?

Going in? I liked him.

One of the best, I thought.

A good detective that he
was, but he gave it all away.

And what he gave away was gold, this badge.

Sure, an ex-detective
digging bullets

out, switching them
around, all that stuff.

I can buy that in a second.

But Howard.

What does he know? He's a glorified
accountant. Where would he land it?

I think Howard's telling the truth, Frank.

I think that Kaufman's in on this.

But I haven't got the
faintest idea how to prove it.

Lieutenant. Here!

Impeccably typed is Mrs.
Kaufman's testimony to me

and a statement
from the janitor that he

saw no one go in or
out last Wednesday.

Not one astrology client.

I thought you told me the janitor
went to the movies on Wednesday.

Well, that's why he didn't see anybody.

What's this impeccably typed notation?
Rent a comp?

Well, this Mrs.
Kaufman's a very businesslike lady.

She has a computer
company work out the

basic monthly
projections for her clients.

I made a record of the company name.

Rent a comp.

Rent a comp, huh?

What are we doing?

Turning to a computer
to solve this, Cuccifredo?

Did you hear that one about the doctor?

He gave his patient six months to live.

Oh, here it is.

Is that the whole joke?

Well, he couldn't pay his bill, right?
So he gave him six more.

And what exactly do you do for
Sherry Kaufman, Mrs. Dabrea?

Let me show you.

Louisa, put this horoscope
program on, will you, Louisa?

Pour for pour.

Now, all I have to do is type in
the individual's vital statistics as

supplied by Sherry

and the computer prints out every
important planet location and conjunction

for the coming month as it
applies to the particular subject.

Which Sherry then
interprets for her clients?

Exactly.

Mrs. Tyburn, last Wednesday night,
if Sherry had a client, she might have

given her the forecast
for the next month, right?

Yes. Would have started
on the next day, Thursday.

I did do one that started
for her last Thursday.

A Scorpio.

Scorpio? Which means
Sherry possibly did

have a client one
night, this Scorpio, right?

I guess so. Let me check with Gretchen.
The computer, that is.

Why, we got problems?

- Problems, no.

We don't have any problems.

- You don't sound good, Ray.

- Hey, listen.

This is all gonna turn
our lives around, isn't it?

I mean, it's worth it, isn't it?

I mean, everything
is, it's not gonna be

the same dead end
again as in anymore.

- Sherry.

Sherry had nothing to do with this.

- Tell her.

Tell her I'm sorry.

I wanted to make it to Paris.

I ordered this one.

- You didn't order a damn thing.

(dramatic music)

Call the police.

(dramatic music).

(dramatic music)

- There she is, Lieutenant.

We picked her up at Kennedy
Airport, waiting to board a Paris flight.

Look at what I found.

Sit down, Mrs. Calvin.

- You've got nothing on me.

I haven't done anything.

- Oh?

You know, I remember the
first day that Ray reported to me.

12 years on a force and
he finally made detective.

I never saw anybody so excited.

You know, except for the
hairline and look who's talking.

He was just like a rookie
fresh out of the police academy.

- Lieutenant.

- Shut up, Mrs. Kaufman.

And you hear me out.

Nobody gave more to the
force than your husband, nobody.

I remember years later, you
know, he'd be sitting all alone

when he thought nobody was looking at him.

And there he'd be with that
badge in his hand, the gold.

Couldn't believe it.

Then all of a sudden out
of the blue, he turned rotten.

And I've often wondered how a
guy like Ray Kaufman could turn bad.

A guy who betrayed a badge
he loved more than his own life.

You wanna know something, Mrs. Kaufman?

I think I'm looking at
the answer right now.

- Stavros.

- A bugger, fraud, extortion,
accessory to homicide.

And I should make it two homicides.

- Two?

- You're a husband, Mrs. Kaufman.

- Let's go, Eddie.
