Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:14,950 --> 00:00:16,530
Terry, honey, fill in for me.
2
00:00:16,530 --> 00:00:18,540
I have to make a phone call.
3
00:00:36,050 --> 00:00:41,010
C-L-A-M-A-N.
4
00:00:41,010 --> 00:00:43,060
Claman! Yay!
5
00:00:43,060 --> 00:00:46,060
No, no, no,
now listen, girls,
6
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,070
remember, most of these
delegates are men.
7
00:00:48,060 --> 00:00:51,070
Now you've got to
keep it all moving.
8
00:00:51,070 --> 00:00:52,570
C-C...
9
00:00:52,570 --> 00:00:54,400
Okay, now let's go.
10
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,940
C-L-A-M-...
11
00:00:58,990 --> 00:01:00,080
...-A-N.
12
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,660
Claman!
13
00:01:01,660 --> 00:01:03,750
Yay!
14
00:01:03,750 --> 00:01:05,250
Hello.
15
00:01:05,250 --> 00:01:07,670
No, Mr. Claman isn't due
for about 20 minutes,
16
00:01:07,670 --> 00:01:09,500
Look, this is a matter
of life and death.
17
00:01:09,500 --> 00:01:11,590
Well, I'll see if I can get
through to his suite.
18
00:01:11,590 --> 00:01:13,090
Hang on, please.
19
00:01:13,090 --> 00:01:15,090
Let's hear it, girls, come on.
20
00:01:15,090 --> 00:01:19,600
C-L-A-M-A-N.
21
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:20,930
Claman!
22
00:01:20,930 --> 00:01:23,470
"...and once elected,
23
00:01:23,470 --> 00:01:25,020
"I promise to place
the government
24
00:01:25,020 --> 00:01:27,020
back into the hands
of the people..."
25
00:01:27,020 --> 00:01:28,520
Oh, come off it, Charlie.
26
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,520
The people's ignorance of
what goes on in government
27
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,030
is what got them into this
fix in the first place.
28
00:01:33,030 --> 00:01:34,530
Now you put on
your brass knuckles
29
00:01:34,530 --> 00:01:36,480
and tell them what
I'm really going to do
30
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,030
is go after
the special interests,
31
00:01:38,030 --> 00:01:39,480
wipe out corruption.
32
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,530
Ye-Yeah, yeah, I heard you.
33
00:01:41,530 --> 00:01:44,540
But I happen to be managing a
strange duck with principles,
34
00:01:44,540 --> 00:01:46,540
so I can't promise miracles.
35
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,040
Look, if Rolley delivers
his delegation,
36
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,540
we'll see that he gets
a fair deal.
37
00:01:53,050 --> 00:01:55,550
I just heard what you
want in that speech.
38
00:01:55,550 --> 00:01:58,050
So what says
my trusted aide?
39
00:01:58,050 --> 00:01:59,550
You sound like a holy man.
40
00:01:59,550 --> 00:02:01,550
Come on down.
41
00:02:01,550 --> 00:02:02,560
I'll do my best.
42
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:08,560
Jim,
43
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,560
I think you're just fine.
44
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,650
Oh, please, Rita.
45
00:02:13,650 --> 00:02:15,650
I don't think I can
stand so much praise
46
00:02:15,650 --> 00:02:18,990
this early in the afternoon,
especially from my wife.
47
00:02:18,990 --> 00:02:21,570
You're going to win
the nomination.
48
00:02:21,570 --> 00:02:23,330
I feel it in my bones.
49
00:02:23,330 --> 00:02:26,080
Do you want to talk
to a constituent?
50
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,610
He says it's life or death.
51
00:02:31,580 --> 00:02:33,870
Hello. This is Jim Claman.
52
00:02:33,870 --> 00:02:36,120
Sorry to break in
on your busy day.
53
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,210
Who is this?
54
00:02:37,210 --> 00:02:38,210
That's not important.
55
00:02:38,210 --> 00:02:40,290
What I've got is--
56
00:02:40,290 --> 00:02:42,460
it could get you the nomination,
Mr. Claman,
57
00:02:42,460 --> 00:02:45,180
or finish you for good.
What?
58
00:02:45,180 --> 00:02:48,270
I have documented evidence
obtained three days ago
59
00:02:48,270 --> 00:02:50,270
while you were
on a speaking tour.
60
00:02:50,270 --> 00:02:52,270
If it gets into the wrong hands,
61
00:02:52,270 --> 00:02:54,940
it can blast your campaign
into the next century.
62
00:02:54,940 --> 00:02:56,030
Who are you?
63
00:02:56,030 --> 00:02:57,480
We'll meet soon enough.
64
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,560
5:00 this afternoon
up on Corona Mesa.
65
00:03:01,060 --> 00:03:03,030
It's private there.
No one to see you.
66
00:03:03,030 --> 00:03:06,950
Oh, and Mr. Claman, if you
really want to be governor,
67
00:03:06,950 --> 00:03:09,040
you just can't afford
not to show.
68
00:03:48,830 --> 00:03:50,910
♪ ♪
69
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,320
Hey, Jim.
70
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,330
Who the devil are you?
The name is Mannix.
71
00:06:00,830 --> 00:06:01,830
I want to see
Jim Claman.
72
00:06:01,830 --> 00:06:04,210
About what?
Murder.
73
00:06:04,210 --> 00:06:05,800
Boy, we've had some
real ding-a-lings
74
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,750
at this convention,
but you ring the bell.
75
00:06:07,750 --> 00:06:09,340
Now please leave
the way you came in.
76
00:06:09,340 --> 00:06:10,840
Just a minute, Walt.
77
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:12,340
Hello, Mannix.
78
00:06:14,390 --> 00:06:16,260
You haven't changed much.
79
00:06:17,510 --> 00:06:21,480
I'm the same man, except
for the added scar tissue
80
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,570
I picked up from our
previous meeting last year.
81
00:06:23,570 --> 00:06:27,150
Now let's see that
was Superior Court 17
82
00:06:27,150 --> 00:06:29,160
in your fair state.
83
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,330
Oh, yes, the man with the
big chips on his shoulders.
84
00:06:32,330 --> 00:06:33,410
When you were
district attorney,
85
00:06:33,910 --> 00:06:35,860
you got your kicks pushing
around private detectives,
86
00:06:35,860 --> 00:06:38,450
I had some bad experiences.
87
00:06:38,450 --> 00:06:41,750
I felt it necessary at the
time to lean a little hard.
88
00:06:41,750 --> 00:06:43,620
Maybe this time you
leaned a little too hard.
89
00:06:45,870 --> 00:06:47,790
Is that your way of
getting back to murder?
90
00:06:50,010 --> 00:06:54,100
Just exactly who is it I'm
supposed to have killed, Mannix?
91
00:06:54,100 --> 00:06:55,600
Maybe nobody.
92
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,550
But you did talk
to Richard Newley
93
00:06:57,550 --> 00:06:59,550
just before
somebody killed him.
94
00:06:59,550 --> 00:07:01,520
Richard Newley?
95
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,610
His wife hired me.
96
00:07:03,610 --> 00:07:04,610
She said he talked to her
97
00:07:05,110 --> 00:07:07,780
about coming into a
sudden inheritance.
98
00:07:07,780 --> 00:07:09,700
She said
he called you.
99
00:07:09,700 --> 00:07:12,280
You did talk
to him?
100
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,280
That was a crank call, Mannix.
101
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:15,200
Nothing more.
102
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,290
Except this crank
turned up dead.
103
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,070
Come on, Walt.
104
00:07:25,410 --> 00:07:26,580
I don't believe
105
00:07:26,580 --> 00:07:27,660
we've been introduced.
106
00:07:27,660 --> 00:07:29,420
Let's keep it that way.
107
00:07:29,420 --> 00:07:33,000
The morning Herald had it
down as Walter Webb--
108
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,510
attorney and confidential
aide to Jim Claman.
109
00:07:35,500 --> 00:07:38,010
Just a small item underneath
a picture of you
110
00:07:38,010 --> 00:07:40,090
flying Claman back from a
speaking tour by helicopter.
111
00:07:40,090 --> 00:07:41,560
So?
112
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,650
Maybe just coincidence,
113
00:07:43,650 --> 00:07:46,650
but a helicopter was spotted
flying around up there
114
00:07:46,650 --> 00:07:48,100
where Newley was killed.
115
00:07:48,100 --> 00:07:51,690
Let me spell this out for you,
Mannix, very clearly.
116
00:07:51,690 --> 00:07:53,660
Any smears directed
at Jim Claman
117
00:07:53,660 --> 00:07:55,580
will have to get by me first,
118
00:07:55,570 --> 00:07:57,910
and I don't like dirt.
119
00:07:57,910 --> 00:07:58,990
Nice meeting you.
120
00:08:38,450 --> 00:08:41,450
Excuse me, Mike Raitt
still own this place?
121
00:08:41,450 --> 00:08:42,460
And everything
else in sight.
122
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,460
Where can I find him?
123
00:08:44,460 --> 00:08:45,960
You won't need radar.
124
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:46,960
Thanks.
125
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,960
Wasn't he a pistol?
126
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,960
Mr. Raitt?
Yeah.
127
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,470
I wonder if I can talk
to you for a minute.
128
00:08:53,470 --> 00:08:55,970
Well, just be
my guest, boy.
129
00:08:55,970 --> 00:08:59,470
Hey, Skip, you look familiar.
130
00:08:59,470 --> 00:09:00,840
Ain't I seen you
131
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:01,920
someplace before?
132
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,430
In a way.
133
00:09:03,430 --> 00:09:04,930
I was present when you were
back in California,
134
00:09:05,430 --> 00:09:07,180
testifying before
the rackets committee.
135
00:09:09,730 --> 00:09:12,320
I'll be right
with you, fellas.
136
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,320
Hey, now, wasn't
that some go-round?
137
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,320
They never laid a glove
on me now, did they, Skip?
138
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,330
The name is Mannix.
139
00:09:19,330 --> 00:09:21,030
I'm a private
investigator.
Uh-huh.
140
00:09:21,030 --> 00:09:23,610
I'm looking into the death
of one of your employees.
141
00:09:23,610 --> 00:09:25,200
Richard Newley?
Right.
142
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,580
Now I ask you, wasn't that a
crying shame about that boy?
143
00:09:28,580 --> 00:09:29,670
It sure was.
144
00:09:29,670 --> 00:09:31,170
Thought maybe you
could tell me something
145
00:09:31,170 --> 00:09:33,840
about him, the people that knew
him, you know, things like that.
146
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,420
I'm sorry, Skip.
147
00:09:35,420 --> 00:09:38,430
You know I got a 173
employees here at this hotel,
148
00:09:38,430 --> 00:09:42,720
and Newley was, well,
just a Social Security
number on the payroll.
149
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,800
I couldn't tell you one
single thing about him.
150
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,350
Well, thanks anyway.
151
00:09:47,350 --> 00:09:48,940
Well, any time.
152
00:09:49,940 --> 00:09:50,810
Say...
153
00:09:52,110 --> 00:09:53,860
what are you
looking for anyhow?
154
00:09:53,860 --> 00:09:54,810
Whoever killed him.
155
00:09:56,230 --> 00:09:57,110
Oh.
156
00:09:59,980 --> 00:10:02,900
Boys,
like I said...
157
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,820
Second question--
158
00:10:05,820 --> 00:10:09,330
can you tell me who in the hotel
was close to Richard Newley?
159
00:10:09,330 --> 00:10:11,660
Take away the women guests
and there was just one.
160
00:10:11,660 --> 00:10:13,000
Who?
161
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,080
Me.
162
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,550
Do you mind telling me
163
00:10:16,550 --> 00:10:18,630
a little something
about him?
164
00:10:18,630 --> 00:10:20,140
Why should I?
165
00:10:20,140 --> 00:10:22,140
I wonder if you
can change a 20.
166
00:10:22,140 --> 00:10:24,640
I've got to make
a phone call.
167
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,140
All I need is a dime.
168
00:10:28,140 --> 00:10:29,400
Mister...
169
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:30,650
Mannix.
170
00:10:30,650 --> 00:10:32,180
You're doing business
171
00:10:32,180 --> 00:10:34,230
with the biggest mouth in town.
172
00:10:34,230 --> 00:10:35,680
How can I help you?
173
00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:36,740
Do you know anything
about Newley
174
00:10:36,740 --> 00:10:38,150
that the police didn't know?
175
00:10:38,150 --> 00:10:41,440
Nope, except maybe you ought to
check his apartment.
176
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,990
He didn't live here
in the hotel?
177
00:10:42,990 --> 00:10:44,530
No, that's what he wanted
everybody to think.
178
00:10:45,030 --> 00:10:46,000
He had this apartment
179
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,580
over on Tenth and Mason,
Number six.
180
00:10:48,580 --> 00:10:51,830
I guess being a tennis pro is a
pretty demanding line of work.
181
00:10:51,830 --> 00:10:53,920
Just in case his death
wasn't an accident,
182
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,540
you got any idea who might have
a motive to kill him?
183
00:10:56,540 --> 00:10:58,620
Yeah. Me.
184
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,130
Motive?
185
00:11:00,130 --> 00:11:01,460
Pure envy.
186
00:11:09,850 --> 00:11:11,850
Mr. Mannix.
187
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:15,860
I'm Claire Hanley.
188
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,860
You say that like it
should mean something.
189
00:11:17,860 --> 00:11:20,360
Not unless you want to get
your name in the papers.
190
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,370
I happen to own six of them all
the way from here to California.
191
00:11:23,370 --> 00:11:24,870
The Hanley chain.
192
00:11:24,870 --> 00:11:26,370
After my husband, Eric.
193
00:11:26,370 --> 00:11:28,370
And we have something
to discuss?
Richard Newley.
194
00:11:28,370 --> 00:11:30,370
May I drop you someplace?
195
00:11:37,750 --> 00:11:40,750
It didn't take Jim Claman
long to call in the reserves.
196
00:11:48,670 --> 00:11:51,060
What makes you think
Jim Claman called me?
197
00:11:51,060 --> 00:11:53,650
Who else? Mike Raitt?
198
00:11:53,650 --> 00:11:55,650
You don't look like the type
199
00:11:55,650 --> 00:11:57,520
who'd trade confidences
with tarantulas.
200
00:11:59,100 --> 00:12:01,600
That's very discerning.
201
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,570
Well, actually,
it was Jim Claman's aide
202
00:12:03,570 --> 00:12:05,360
who called me, Walter Webb.
203
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,950
And you're the big,
powerful paper lady
who's to scare me off.
204
00:12:09,950 --> 00:12:12,450
I don't know that I'd say
205
00:12:12,450 --> 00:12:14,920
it was anything
quite that dramatic.
206
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,700
Well, I just felt you could
possibly be reasoned with.
207
00:12:18,700 --> 00:12:22,290
We have an excellent police
force in this city, Mr. Mannix,
208
00:12:22,290 --> 00:12:23,710
Excellent.
209
00:12:23,710 --> 00:12:25,790
They made a thorough
investigation,
210
00:12:25,790 --> 00:12:27,710
much more thoroughly
than you could,
211
00:12:27,710 --> 00:12:31,600
and they concluded
Richard Newley's death was due
212
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,140
to an accidental fall.
213
00:12:33,140 --> 00:12:36,110
Well, then the worst that could
happen is, I waste my time.
214
00:12:36,110 --> 00:12:38,190
And possibly start
a whispering campaign
215
00:12:38,190 --> 00:12:41,730
that could destroy a man
this state sorely needs.
216
00:12:41,730 --> 00:12:44,310
Well, there's no reason
to be concerned.
217
00:12:44,310 --> 00:12:46,120
Unless there's something
to whisper about.
218
00:12:56,410 --> 00:12:57,990
Thanks for the ride.
219
00:12:57,990 --> 00:13:00,000
It's not over yet.
220
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,680
He ought to be locked up!
221
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:10,760
He almost ran me down.
222
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,710
Then he stumbled into
the alley and passed out.
223
00:15:12,710 --> 00:15:15,010
You can see how
drunk he is!
224
00:15:22,300 --> 00:15:24,110
One dead bottle
of red-eye
225
00:15:24,110 --> 00:15:25,690
and loads of it
on your breath.
226
00:15:25,690 --> 00:15:27,190
Now look, Webb, I...
227
00:15:27,190 --> 00:15:28,940
No, no. Mannix,
you look.
228
00:15:28,940 --> 00:15:30,530
I've been around
the law for years.
229
00:15:30,530 --> 00:15:32,870
Don't insult my intelligence
by yelling "frame."
230
00:15:32,870 --> 00:15:34,950
Looks like you've
got a point.
231
00:15:34,950 --> 00:15:37,040
Maybe, uh, you
saw to it, huh?
232
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,490
Book him.
233
00:15:39,870 --> 00:15:42,880
The only place I'm going
is to see Jim Claman.
234
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,210
You really are a
ding-a-ling, aren't-you?
235
00:15:45,210 --> 00:15:46,290
That sign that says you're smart
236
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,300
can get tarnished if you
let them lock me up, Webb.
237
00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:52,130
What I know now can carry
awfully far in a local jail.
238
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:55,970
I'll handle it.
239
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,850
What's your feeling about
the need for a sales tax rise
240
00:16:07,850 --> 00:16:09,850
to help balance the budget?
241
00:16:09,850 --> 00:16:13,860
It takes a little more breath
to say "efficiency" than it does
242
00:16:13,860 --> 00:16:16,860
to say "money,"
but it costs less.
243
00:16:16,860 --> 00:16:18,660
Can I see you alone
for a minute, Jim?
244
00:16:22,750 --> 00:16:23,950
Excuse me, gentlemen.
245
00:16:23,950 --> 00:16:25,530
Sure.
246
00:16:25,530 --> 00:16:27,040
Sorry, boys, that's
all for the day.
247
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:54,650
Our state doesn't seem
248
00:16:55,150 --> 00:16:57,650
to be wearing too well
on you, Mr. Mannix.
249
00:16:57,650 --> 00:17:01,150
I found you much more
attractive at our last meeting.
250
00:17:01,150 --> 00:17:04,240
I just can't kick the habit
of getting that mussed-up look
251
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,210
when I've been mugged,
dragged into an alley
252
00:17:06,210 --> 00:17:07,740
and had liquor poured
down my throat.
253
00:17:07,740 --> 00:17:10,630
All of which I'm sure
is news to you.
254
00:17:10,630 --> 00:17:11,710
No.
255
00:17:11,710 --> 00:17:14,720
Walter Webb called in
to say they'd found you.
256
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,890
Any idea how he knew
where to look?
257
00:17:18,890 --> 00:17:22,470
I'm afraid that was my doing.
258
00:17:22,470 --> 00:17:25,680
An anonymous phone call
came into the newspaper.
259
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,260
Oh, now, please.
260
00:17:27,260 --> 00:17:28,260
Please don't be
don't be angry
261
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,430
with me for
taking sides.
262
00:17:30,430 --> 00:17:32,990
Jim Claman is my man--
263
00:17:32,990 --> 00:17:35,070
politically
speaking, that is.
264
00:17:35,070 --> 00:17:40,660
Of course, that does leave me
a great deal of elbow room.
265
00:17:40,660 --> 00:17:42,660
Shall we say my house?
266
00:17:42,660 --> 00:17:44,660
8:00 this evening?
267
00:17:44,660 --> 00:17:46,920
Last one at the end
of Tower Road.
268
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:47,780
8:00, then.
269
00:17:50,540 --> 00:17:52,540
You won't find it dull.
270
00:18:14,610 --> 00:18:15,610
All right, Mannix.
271
00:18:15,610 --> 00:18:18,610
Exactly what
incriminating words
272
00:18:18,610 --> 00:18:22,120
were you going to bark through
the halls of our local bastille?
273
00:18:22,620 --> 00:18:24,120
Well, it seems
somebody sapped me
274
00:18:24,120 --> 00:18:26,040
while I was in Richard
Newley's apartment--
275
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,120
not before I found a notebook.
276
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:30,830
Newley had scribbled
down some IOUs. Now, to me,
277
00:18:30,830 --> 00:18:32,410
that turned on
a couple of lights.
278
00:18:32,410 --> 00:18:33,710
Such as?
279
00:18:33,710 --> 00:18:35,300
Newley had planned
on making a bundle
280
00:18:35,300 --> 00:18:37,300
from some business
dealing with you.
281
00:18:37,300 --> 00:18:38,800
Newley has these IOUs.
282
00:18:39,300 --> 00:18:40,500
Newley turns up dead.
283
00:18:40,500 --> 00:18:43,590
So I am in hock to someone
over a gambling debt,
284
00:18:43,590 --> 00:18:46,810
and Newley was going to
cash in on the scandal...?
285
00:18:46,810 --> 00:18:48,590
The thought occurred to me.
286
00:18:48,590 --> 00:18:51,180
You know, Mannix,
in our last go-around,
287
00:18:51,180 --> 00:18:53,180
I thought you were
just hardheaded,
288
00:18:53,180 --> 00:18:55,020
but if you thought
you heard thunder
289
00:18:55,020 --> 00:18:56,600
the last time
we locked horns,
290
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,320
you'd better just
wait awhile.
291
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,410
Within five minutes,
you won't be able
292
00:19:00,410 --> 00:19:02,690
to buy a dog license
in this state.
293
00:19:04,030 --> 00:19:06,030
Oh, one more thing, Claman.
294
00:19:06,030 --> 00:19:08,530
There was a phone number
in Newley's notebook.
295
00:19:08,530 --> 00:19:09,950
It happens to match the one
296
00:19:09,950 --> 00:19:12,030
on your telephone.
297
00:19:12,030 --> 00:19:13,540
Yes, sirree,
this is sure gonna be
298
00:19:13,540 --> 00:19:15,540
an interesting romp
around the maypole.
299
00:19:24,510 --> 00:19:27,020
I take it Jim Claman's
being true to his word.
300
00:19:27,020 --> 00:19:28,520
Thank you, John.
That'll be all.
301
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:29,520
Yeah. From the
cooperation I got
302
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,520
from the D.A.'s office
and police department,
303
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,020
my name might as well
have been Hitler.
304
00:19:34,020 --> 00:19:35,110
Splendid.
305
00:19:35,110 --> 00:19:36,980
I thought you'd see it that way.
306
00:19:36,980 --> 00:19:40,060
As I told you,
I want Jim Claman
307
00:19:40,060 --> 00:19:41,860
as the next governor
of this state,
308
00:19:41,860 --> 00:19:44,320
and I want it
badly enough that,
309
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,400
if I have to, I will
take off my silk gloves
310
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,410
and fight like a man--
any kind of man.
311
00:19:50,410 --> 00:19:52,910
Hmm. There you go
scaring me again.
312
00:19:52,910 --> 00:19:54,410
On the contrary.
313
00:19:54,410 --> 00:19:57,410
Fighting you is the last
thing I have in mind.
314
00:19:57,410 --> 00:20:00,420
I, uh...I, um...
315
00:20:00,420 --> 00:20:01,420
I thought I might help you
316
00:20:01,420 --> 00:20:04,050
make a turn
in the right direction.
317
00:20:04,050 --> 00:20:07,140
On occasion, I, I had
Richard Newley over here
318
00:20:07,140 --> 00:20:08,720
to give me
tennis lessons.
319
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,310
My backhand needs work.
320
00:20:11,310 --> 00:20:13,430
So does my forehand.
321
00:20:13,430 --> 00:20:16,010
Naturally, I learned
quite a bit about him.
322
00:20:16,010 --> 00:20:17,650
Such as?
323
00:20:17,650 --> 00:20:21,240
Such as those gambling debts
you discovered in his notebook.
324
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,740
They had nothing whatsoever
to do with Jim Claman.
325
00:20:23,740 --> 00:20:26,740
They were his losses--
Newley's losses
326
00:20:26,740 --> 00:20:31,160
to that rogue of the
rackets, Big Mike Raitt.
327
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,620
Uh... Newley told you that?
328
00:20:33,620 --> 00:20:36,700
Precisely. And
for the very best of reasons.
329
00:20:36,700 --> 00:20:40,040
He wanted me to lend him
the money to pay the debt off.
330
00:20:43,180 --> 00:20:46,680
It seems that jolly Mike,
the innkeeper,
331
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,430
might not be quite
so jolly as a creditor.
332
00:20:49,430 --> 00:20:53,190
So you, uh...
gave him the money?
333
00:20:53,190 --> 00:20:57,220
I played tennis
with Richard, not house.
334
00:21:01,890 --> 00:21:04,900
Well, now that I've
done my good deed
335
00:21:04,900 --> 00:21:07,070
for country and man,
336
00:21:07,070 --> 00:21:09,650
why don't we just make
ourselves comfortable
337
00:21:09,650 --> 00:21:12,650
and watch the
grass grow, hmm?
338
00:21:15,660 --> 00:21:17,160
Excuse me.
339
00:21:19,660 --> 00:21:20,660
Yes?
340
00:21:23,670 --> 00:21:26,170
One moment, please.
341
00:21:26,670 --> 00:21:27,670
It's for you.
342
00:21:27,670 --> 00:21:28,670
Oh.
343
00:21:28,670 --> 00:21:30,170
Hello.
344
00:21:30,170 --> 00:21:32,760
This is the hotel clerk.
345
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,230
You left this number
for messages.
346
00:21:34,230 --> 00:21:37,310
Look, I gotta see you now.
It's urgent.
347
00:21:37,310 --> 00:21:38,260
Where?
348
00:21:38,810 --> 00:21:40,320
Service garage at the hotel.
349
00:22:13,270 --> 00:22:14,270
Sneaking up on people
in the dark
350
00:22:14,270 --> 00:22:16,020
can get you a lot of trouble.
351
00:22:16,020 --> 00:22:17,100
Any more trouble I get
352
00:22:17,100 --> 00:22:18,550
is gonna have to
stand in line.
353
00:22:18,550 --> 00:22:19,600
Come on, get in here.
354
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,820
Big Mike fired me today.
Why?
355
00:22:32,820 --> 00:22:35,040
Found out I gave you
Newley's apartment address.
356
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,120
That leaves
me in need
357
00:22:36,120 --> 00:22:37,660
of getting-out-of-town
money, so, uh...
358
00:22:37,660 --> 00:22:39,540
how'd you like to buy
the rest of my merchandise?
359
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,750
$50? I, I don't have change.
360
00:22:47,750 --> 00:22:49,250
Keep the dime.
361
00:22:51,220 --> 00:22:52,720
Claire Hanley, who latched
on to you in the hotel
362
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,220
this afternoon--
what did she have to say
363
00:22:54,220 --> 00:22:55,470
about her and Newley?
364
00:22:55,470 --> 00:22:56,560
Oh, just that he
365
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:57,510
taught her tennis now and then.
366
00:22:57,510 --> 00:22:59,180
There something else?
367
00:22:59,180 --> 00:23:00,760
Yeah, the whole nine yards.
368
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,060
Newley spent a lot
of time at her place.
369
00:23:03,060 --> 00:23:04,650
Since he wasn't exactly
in Who's Who, he...
370
00:23:04,650 --> 00:23:06,150
he planned to
make her pay
371
00:23:06,150 --> 00:23:08,150
for keeping him coming
through the back door.
372
00:23:08,150 --> 00:23:09,100
Anything else?
373
00:23:09,100 --> 00:23:10,190
Mm-hmm.
374
00:23:10,190 --> 00:23:12,690
The hotel helicopter
made an unscheduled flight
375
00:23:12,690 --> 00:23:14,580
the day Newley
fell off the cliff.
376
00:23:19,860 --> 00:23:24,450
That helicopter's to haul our
VIP guests around with, and...
377
00:23:24,450 --> 00:23:27,960
I fired that clerk
'cause he had a big mouth.
378
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,960
If there's anything
that a hotel don't need,
379
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,960
it's a "poppin' off" room clerk.
380
00:23:33,460 --> 00:23:35,960
Well, let's not overlook
the dead man, Raitt.
381
00:23:36,460 --> 00:23:37,970
He owed you a lot
of gambling money.
382
00:23:37,970 --> 00:23:39,970
and in murder, that can
be defined as motive.
383
00:23:39,970 --> 00:23:43,360
I suppose you're gonna go
to the police with that, huh?
384
00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:45,940
I haven't decided yet,
but you got to admit,
385
00:23:45,940 --> 00:23:48,390
it's even money that they'd
find that pretty interesting.
386
00:23:50,450 --> 00:23:52,950
Mannix, I sure hope
that you like
387
00:23:52,950 --> 00:23:55,450
this little old state of ours,
388
00:23:55,450 --> 00:23:56,950
'cause it's pretty
near a cinch
389
00:23:56,950 --> 00:23:58,290
that you're gonna
get buried in it.
390
00:24:00,710 --> 00:24:02,160
Mannix?
391
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:06,580
You sure are a caution.
392
00:24:06,580 --> 00:24:08,630
You gotta learn
to relax,
393
00:24:08,630 --> 00:24:10,630
know when people's
a-kidding you.
394
00:24:10,630 --> 00:24:12,630
Yeah, I guess it was
pretty silly of me
395
00:24:12,630 --> 00:24:13,920
to take you seriously.
396
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,500
I guess it had to do
397
00:24:15,500 --> 00:24:18,010
with all that gangster stuff
I keep reading in the papers.
398
00:24:18,010 --> 00:24:20,510
Now you got
the right idea.
399
00:24:20,510 --> 00:24:22,010
Let's just sit down
400
00:24:22,010 --> 00:24:23,510
and have ourselves
a little old talk.
401
00:24:23,510 --> 00:24:25,010
You did come up here
402
00:24:25,010 --> 00:24:27,020
to do some horse trading,
now, didn't you, boy?
403
00:24:27,020 --> 00:24:30,020
You know how we private
detectives are, Mike.
404
00:24:30,020 --> 00:24:31,520
Like to follow hot leads.
405
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,020
Since you're so
interested in the case,
406
00:24:33,020 --> 00:24:35,520
I thought you might slip
me a goodie or two.
407
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,030
I suppose that, uh...
408
00:24:38,030 --> 00:24:41,250
well, you'd be willing
to forget about...
409
00:24:41,250 --> 00:24:42,830
the police and...
410
00:24:42,830 --> 00:24:45,450
and my IOUs and
Newley's and everything.
411
00:24:45,450 --> 00:24:49,920
Well, now that depends on
how well you hold my interest.
412
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,920
Did you ever hear of the
Coronet Trucking Company?
413
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,790
Yeah. It's a business front
for laying off underworld money.
414
00:24:55,790 --> 00:24:57,380
About five years ago,
415
00:24:57,380 --> 00:24:59,880
Jim Claman represented
Coronet Trucking
416
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,520
while he was a partner
in one of the local
417
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:03,600
law firms
here in town.
418
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,600
Now, isn't it just possible
419
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,060
that Claman didn't know
Coronet Trucking was a front?
420
00:25:08,060 --> 00:25:10,640
Maybe you're right,
but just the same,
421
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,150
it's a pretty fair bet,
that, innocent or not,
422
00:25:13,610 --> 00:25:14,650
he might have signed his name
423
00:25:14,650 --> 00:25:17,120
to some mighty
incriminating documents.
424
00:25:17,120 --> 00:25:18,700
I'll tell you
one thing.
425
00:25:18,700 --> 00:25:20,490
Something like
that'd sure run
426
00:25:20,490 --> 00:25:23,370
some awful deep ruts in Claman's
campaign for governor.
427
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,300
Skip, I do believe
428
00:25:30,300 --> 00:25:32,380
I've captured
your interest.
429
00:25:36,550 --> 00:25:38,050
How does it look, Charlie?
430
00:25:38,050 --> 00:25:40,560
Gentlemen of the press
are smelling fresh meat.
431
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,560
Thanks, Charlie.
432
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,060
Well, there's nothing
definite, but, uh...
433
00:25:46,060 --> 00:25:49,820
little innuendos, like...
434
00:25:49,810 --> 00:25:52,400
why a private investigator's
asking so many questions
435
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,240
about a candidate
for governor.
436
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,820
It's time we leaned
on Mannix, Jim, hard.
437
00:25:56,820 --> 00:25:57,990
No. No.
438
00:25:57,990 --> 00:25:59,070
I want to think
about it.
439
00:25:59,070 --> 00:26:00,580
You go down to the press
section right now
440
00:26:00,580 --> 00:26:02,360
and see what you can do
to spike these rumors.
441
00:26:11,950 --> 00:26:13,960
You know...
442
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,960
under the right conditions,
a lady can get a very clear
443
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,930
perspective
on politics.
444
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,680
It stinks.
445
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,890
Please, Rita,
just a moment, dear.
446
00:26:27,890 --> 00:26:29,940
Notice, Jim?
447
00:26:29,940 --> 00:26:31,970
I'm wearing something new.
448
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:36,690
Jim?
449
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,120
Oh, yes, I've seen
that gown before, dear.
450
00:26:42,120 --> 00:26:43,620
It's lovely.
451
00:26:43,620 --> 00:26:46,120
I'm talking about
my new accessory.
452
00:26:46,120 --> 00:26:48,740
This little glass
of sunshine.
453
00:26:48,740 --> 00:26:49,820
Remember, Jim?
454
00:26:49,820 --> 00:26:52,830
I never touched it before.
455
00:26:52,830 --> 00:26:54,800
Except on our wedding night,
456
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,380
when you bought that
magnum of champagne.
457
00:26:57,380 --> 00:26:59,220
We made three toasts--
458
00:26:59,220 --> 00:27:01,300
to us.
459
00:27:01,300 --> 00:27:04,220
Then the next thing I remember,
it was morning.
460
00:27:04,220 --> 00:27:06,310
Of course I remember, darling.
461
00:27:06,310 --> 00:27:09,140
But do we have
to talk about it now?
462
00:27:09,140 --> 00:27:11,730
There you were,
the brilliant young lawyer,
463
00:27:11,730 --> 00:27:12,730
briefcase brimming
with Blackstone,
464
00:27:12,730 --> 00:27:15,650
ready to take me off
to glory land.
465
00:27:15,650 --> 00:27:18,850
And here we are now
ready to knock on the gate.
466
00:27:18,850 --> 00:27:21,110
But it's strange, Jim.
467
00:27:21,110 --> 00:27:23,190
It's as though
I were somebody else...
468
00:27:23,190 --> 00:27:26,530
as though I'd lost you
somewhere back in those years.
469
00:27:27,910 --> 00:27:31,420
Everything is gonna be
just fine, darling.
470
00:27:31,420 --> 00:27:34,950
You've just contracted
a case of campaign nerves.
471
00:27:34,950 --> 00:27:36,540
Why don't you
lie down.
472
00:27:36,540 --> 00:27:38,620
I'll see you at dinner?
473
00:27:43,130 --> 00:27:44,710
Look, boys,
there's nothing to it.
474
00:27:44,710 --> 00:27:47,720
Mannix and Jim Claman
had a run-in a few years ago,
475
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,220
but it's all settled.
476
00:27:49,220 --> 00:27:50,970
Mannix is practically
on a plane
477
00:27:50,970 --> 00:27:53,970
back to California.
478
00:27:53,970 --> 00:27:57,060
Your words are smooth, Walt,
but your timing is lousy.
479
00:27:57,060 --> 00:27:59,560
You say this Mannix
isn't bugging Jim Claman,
480
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,030
but here he comes again.
481
00:28:03,060 --> 00:28:05,150
I guess he missed
the plane.
482
00:28:09,540 --> 00:28:12,620
Mannix, unless you've come
to deliver some delegates,
483
00:28:12,620 --> 00:28:15,130
why don't you
run along home.
484
00:28:22,550 --> 00:28:25,420
I think that my chances
are reasonably good.
485
00:28:25,420 --> 00:28:28,420
I don't make any claims
at this time, but I do have...
486
00:28:28,420 --> 00:28:31,060
How do you feel
the campaign's going?
487
00:28:31,060 --> 00:28:32,640
Gentlemen, excuse me.
488
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,480
I'll be glad to answer
your questions later.
489
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,060
Excuse me.
490
00:28:38,070 --> 00:28:39,570
And what is it
this time?
491
00:28:39,570 --> 00:28:42,020
Well, it might be
the whole ball game.
492
00:28:42,020 --> 00:28:44,440
Whatever, it shouldn't take
five minutes to find out.
493
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,520
Jim, I was about
to get rid of him.
494
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:47,990
You can throw me out,
495
00:28:47,990 --> 00:28:49,410
or you can talk to me,
496
00:28:49,410 --> 00:28:51,500
whichever you think is
best for the Claman image.
497
00:28:51,500 --> 00:28:53,620
It has to do with
Coronet Trucking.
498
00:28:53,620 --> 00:28:55,200
All right!
499
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,200
Maybe Coronet Trucking
was an underworld front.
500
00:28:58,200 --> 00:28:59,700
I didn't know that.
501
00:28:59,700 --> 00:29:02,210
Isn't it just possible
that while you were
their attorney,
502
00:29:02,710 --> 00:29:04,210
you could have signed
some incriminating documents?
503
00:29:04,210 --> 00:29:05,710
What are you getting at,
Mannix?
504
00:29:05,710 --> 00:29:07,710
That Michael Raitt
wanted me to know
505
00:29:07,710 --> 00:29:09,130
you were involved
with Coronet Trucking.
506
00:29:09,130 --> 00:29:11,350
Now, if that's the case,
he must have something.
507
00:29:11,350 --> 00:29:14,140
And if he does, then it's my
guess that you know what it is.
508
00:29:14,140 --> 00:29:16,220
Mannix...
509
00:29:16,220 --> 00:29:19,720
I'm gonna be finished with this
and with you once and for all.
510
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,140
If Coronet Trucking was
a syndicate operation,
511
00:29:23,140 --> 00:29:25,230
I knew nothing about it.
512
00:29:25,230 --> 00:29:26,810
Nothing at all.
513
00:29:26,810 --> 00:29:28,780
However, who
would believe me?
514
00:29:28,780 --> 00:29:29,870
So I'm gonna cooperate with you.
515
00:29:29,870 --> 00:29:33,370
I'm going to open up the gates
so that you can dig up
516
00:29:33,370 --> 00:29:35,870
any dirt on me
that you can find.
517
00:29:35,870 --> 00:29:37,460
Wait a minute, Jim,
you can't!
518
00:29:37,460 --> 00:29:38,990
Yes, I can.
519
00:29:38,990 --> 00:29:41,580
But if there's something you
can use to crucify me with,
520
00:29:41,580 --> 00:29:43,550
I'd like to have it
before the convention
521
00:29:43,550 --> 00:29:45,080
picks its nominee
for governor.
522
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,590
If you find someth...
anything incriminating,
523
00:29:48,590 --> 00:29:50,090
I'll withdraw
from the race.
524
00:29:50,090 --> 00:29:52,590
Jim, you...
Walt, I am not
about to hurt
525
00:29:52,590 --> 00:29:55,260
a lot of good people
and a good party.
526
00:29:55,260 --> 00:29:59,850
I haven't got a fix
on you yet, Claman.
527
00:29:59,850 --> 00:30:02,350
Maybe you are
on the up-and-up.
528
00:30:03,850 --> 00:30:05,850
But then again...
529
00:30:06,350 --> 00:30:09,360
maybe you've come up with
the greatest political con act
530
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,440
since kissing babies.
531
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:12,830
Try me.
532
00:30:36,430 --> 00:30:39,440
One complete photostat report
of the Richard Newley accident.
533
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,440
Ah, thanks. You know, I like
you people better this way.
534
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,440
I guess it does pay
to have friends.
535
00:30:44,940 --> 00:30:46,440
Well, you better
keep 'em, Mannix.
536
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,950
We don't find you
exactly irresistible.
537
00:31:05,250 --> 00:31:06,300
Mr. Mannix?
538
00:31:17,340 --> 00:31:19,390
I'd like to talk to you.
539
00:31:19,390 --> 00:31:21,560
Be glad to, Mrs. Claman.
540
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:26,150
Mr. Mannix, my husband has
quite a career ahead of him.
541
00:31:26,150 --> 00:31:29,650
He's young enough to go on
to even more important things.
542
00:31:30,150 --> 00:31:31,770
I'm very proud of him.
543
00:31:31,770 --> 00:31:34,780
I don't quite understand
what you're getting at.
544
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,750
On the seat, the envelope.
545
00:31:38,750 --> 00:31:40,450
Take it.
546
00:31:40,450 --> 00:31:42,030
It's yours.
547
00:31:47,620 --> 00:31:49,040
Mine?
548
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,130
$5,000, Mr. Mannix.
549
00:31:51,130 --> 00:31:53,130
All you have to do to earn it
550
00:31:53,130 --> 00:31:56,260
is to get on a plane
and go back to California.
551
00:31:56,260 --> 00:32:00,520
That, of course, is, uh,
before I finish the case.
552
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,100
You've done your work well.
553
00:32:03,100 --> 00:32:05,440
It's started to make waves,
554
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:09,980
waves that are going to swamp
a very good and very able man.
555
00:32:09,980 --> 00:32:12,060
My husband deserves better
than that, Mr. Mannix,
556
00:32:12,060 --> 00:32:13,570
and so does this state.
557
00:32:15,530 --> 00:32:17,040
Mrs. Claman, I have...
558
00:32:17,030 --> 00:32:18,650
No. Please...
559
00:32:18,650 --> 00:32:21,240
don't answer just yet.
560
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,660
Meanwhile, think about it.
561
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,550
You know, I've got a hunch
about you, Mrs. Claman,
562
00:32:29,550 --> 00:32:32,050
and if I'm right...
563
00:32:32,050 --> 00:32:33,830
I hope your husband
deserves you.
564
00:32:49,020 --> 00:32:50,990
Well, you don't even
look surprised.
565
00:32:50,990 --> 00:32:52,520
No, I'm not.
I'm pleased.
566
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,020
At least this time I
didn't get sapped over the head
567
00:32:55,020 --> 00:32:57,020
and have a bottle
shoved down my throat.
568
00:32:57,020 --> 00:32:59,030
Now, uh, shall
I order up some drinks,
569
00:32:59,030 --> 00:33:01,530
or do you two want to get
right to the point?
570
00:33:01,530 --> 00:33:05,030
The point is, darling,
I told you, if I had to,
571
00:33:05,030 --> 00:33:09,040
I would take off my gloves
and fight like a man.
572
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,540
I had to.
573
00:33:10,540 --> 00:33:14,040
You see, Mannix,
Mrs. Hanley and
I are not as...
574
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,040
honorable as
Jim Claman.
575
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:20,050
I'm afraid he had to break
his promise of cooperation.
576
00:33:20,050 --> 00:33:22,050
And, uh...
577
00:33:22,050 --> 00:33:25,300
you can hardly wait
to tell me how.
578
00:33:25,300 --> 00:33:26,890
It's our duty.
579
00:33:26,890 --> 00:33:29,690
By reason of certain
influences, pressures,
580
00:33:29,860 --> 00:33:33,440
your detective license has
been revoked in this state.
581
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:36,950
I presume this, uh, decision
was made as soon as you learned
582
00:33:36,950 --> 00:33:38,870
I had the police report
on Newley's death.
583
00:33:39,230 --> 00:33:40,650
Correct.
584
00:33:40,870 --> 00:33:42,450
You're pretty touchy
on the subject
585
00:33:42,450 --> 00:33:44,290
of Richard Newley,
aren't you, Mrs. Hanley?
586
00:33:44,540 --> 00:33:46,120
To borrow a cliché,
587
00:33:46,620 --> 00:33:49,080
I haven't the slightest idea
what you're talking about.
588
00:33:49,460 --> 00:33:52,050
According to the report,
Richard Newley took a cab
589
00:33:52,050 --> 00:33:53,330
to the place he was murdered.
590
00:33:53,580 --> 00:33:55,080
The day he had his accident.
591
00:33:55,470 --> 00:33:58,050
He took a cab
to the place he was murdered
592
00:33:58,050 --> 00:33:59,000
from your house, Mrs. Hanley.
593
00:33:59,420 --> 00:34:01,010
Impossible.
594
00:34:01,010 --> 00:34:03,010
Of course, Richard
did spend time at my house
595
00:34:03,010 --> 00:34:05,010
giving me tennis lessons,
as I told you.
596
00:34:05,010 --> 00:34:06,510
But on that
particular afternoon,
597
00:34:06,510 --> 00:34:08,900
I had called him
to tell him I wouldn't be there.
598
00:34:09,230 --> 00:34:10,180
That can be checked out.
599
00:34:10,430 --> 00:34:12,020
Not by you, mister.
600
00:34:12,020 --> 00:34:14,020
Any further detecting
you do in this state
601
00:34:14,020 --> 00:34:15,020
will be considered illegal.
602
00:34:15,020 --> 00:34:17,020
And that spells jail.
603
00:34:50,610 --> 00:34:54,110
Outside call, please--
Century Cab Company.
604
00:34:58,610 --> 00:35:00,620
Uh, Century Cab Company?
605
00:35:00,620 --> 00:35:03,120
Listen, you've got a driver
by the name of Pete Brine,
606
00:35:03,620 --> 00:35:04,900
number 406.
607
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,200
I'd like to talk to him.
608
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:08,710
Hello?
609
00:35:08,710 --> 00:35:10,210
Hello, Pete Brine?
610
00:35:10,210 --> 00:35:11,710
Yeah. What can I do for you?
611
00:35:12,130 --> 00:35:13,710
Well, I'm investigating
the Newley case,
612
00:35:13,710 --> 00:35:15,210
and according
to the police report,
613
00:35:15,210 --> 00:35:18,050
uh, he took a ride with you
on the day he died.
614
00:35:18,300 --> 00:35:19,880
That's right.
615
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:21,390
Let's see, uh...
616
00:35:21,390 --> 00:35:23,670
I drove him up to Corona Mesa.
617
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:25,390
You picked him up
at Mrs. Hanley's.
618
00:35:25,810 --> 00:35:28,390
I picked him up
at the Hotel Caribe.
619
00:35:28,390 --> 00:35:31,400
He comes out wearing tennis
shoes and a tennis outfit.
620
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,180
I'd hacked him out that way
to Mrs. Hanley before.
621
00:35:34,430 --> 00:35:35,980
And was he, uh,
carrying anything with him?
622
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,490
Yeah, a tennis racket.
623
00:35:38,490 --> 00:35:39,990
Oh, wait a minute.
624
00:35:39,990 --> 00:35:41,990
I thought it was pretty funny,
625
00:35:41,990 --> 00:35:43,770
he was also carrying
a briefcase.
626
00:35:43,940 --> 00:35:46,410
And then you went
straight to Mrs. Hanley's?
627
00:35:46,780 --> 00:35:49,860
Yeah. He gets out,
goes into a tennis cabana,
628
00:35:49,860 --> 00:35:51,870
stays for about ten minutes,
629
00:35:51,870 --> 00:35:53,750
comes out dressed
in his civvies.
630
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:55,090
What about the briefcase?
631
00:35:55,450 --> 00:35:58,040
Well, he must've left it
in the tennis cabana
632
00:35:58,040 --> 00:35:59,840
with his white-on-whites,
I guess.
633
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,130
Uh, thanks, Pete.
634
00:36:01,130 --> 00:36:03,630
I'll see that you get
a picture of General Grant.
635
00:36:04,130 --> 00:36:06,630
An autographed picture by
the Secretary of the Treasury.
636
00:36:06,630 --> 00:36:08,130
Hey, thanks!
637
00:37:46,230 --> 00:37:48,230
Start making tracks,
old buddy.
638
00:37:48,230 --> 00:37:50,740
You're going up,
up and away.
639
00:38:08,590 --> 00:38:11,590
Whip this thing up, Cal!
640
00:38:11,590 --> 00:38:15,090
I want to get back in time
to hear that roll call!
641
00:38:16,590 --> 00:38:19,260
You know, that
governor's race is liable
642
00:38:19,260 --> 00:38:21,020
to be tighter
than a dead heat.
643
00:38:21,020 --> 00:38:22,600
Sure hope Claman wins.
644
00:38:33,830 --> 00:38:36,330
You're awful quiet.
645
00:38:37,830 --> 00:38:40,340
Yeah. Just thinking.
646
00:38:40,330 --> 00:38:41,840
I guess it was you
who tapped me over the head
647
00:38:42,340 --> 00:38:43,840
at Newley's
apartment, huh?
648
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,340
Yeah, and it sure
cut me to the quick
649
00:38:46,340 --> 00:38:49,380
to have to put the arm on
a good ol' boy like you.
650
00:38:49,380 --> 00:38:51,930
If you hadn't
of stuck to it
the way you did,
651
00:38:51,930 --> 00:38:55,600
I might not have wound up
with this key to the state!
652
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:59,690
A state's a pretty
expensive blackmail price.
653
00:38:59,690 --> 00:39:02,390
That must be first-class
dynamite in there.
654
00:39:02,390 --> 00:39:05,230
Dick Newley thought
it was anyhow.
655
00:39:05,230 --> 00:39:07,310
Sort of upset your gravy train
656
00:39:07,810 --> 00:39:09,480
if Claman didn't win
that nomination, wouldn't it?
657
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,820
I got to admit it would
be a big disappointment.
658
00:39:16,990 --> 00:39:19,570
The way it lays out to me,
659
00:39:19,570 --> 00:39:21,580
Richard Newley owed
you gambling money,
660
00:39:21,580 --> 00:39:25,080
so you used that to force him
to get something on Claman.
661
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,130
It's a little rough on the
edges, but it ain't bad.
662
00:39:28,130 --> 00:39:32,250
And then Newley decided to go
into business for himself.
663
00:39:32,250 --> 00:39:35,340
He called me and said
if I didn't beat Claman's price,
664
00:39:35,340 --> 00:39:37,980
he was going to take his
business to the source.
665
00:39:37,980 --> 00:39:40,560
So you take
the hotel helicopter,
666
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,150
and your friend up front here
forced him over the cliff.
667
00:39:43,150 --> 00:39:46,230
He spooked hisself
over that cliff.
668
00:39:46,230 --> 00:39:49,740
But, stupid as he was,
he still had brains enough
669
00:39:49,740 --> 00:39:52,240
not to bring the Claman
documents with him.
670
00:39:52,240 --> 00:39:53,690
This was his hole card.
671
00:39:57,950 --> 00:40:01,030
This is where
you get out, son.
672
00:40:01,030 --> 00:40:02,030
I'm afraid
you're going
673
00:40:02,030 --> 00:40:05,950
to have a mighty
nasty accident.
674
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,180
Come on around, Cal!
675
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,380
We're out of control!
We're out of control!
676
00:41:42,380 --> 00:41:44,800
Get ahold of it, Cal!
677
00:42:13,830 --> 00:42:17,130
The delegation from
the Imperial Empire
678
00:42:17,130 --> 00:42:22,010
of Jameson County
casts its entire 27 votes
679
00:42:22,010 --> 00:42:28,480
for the next governor
of this great state, Jim Claman!
680
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,190
That puts you ahead, Jim.
681
00:42:40,190 --> 00:42:44,190
Now, if Curtis County
goes our way, you're in.
682
00:42:44,190 --> 00:42:47,250
Hey. Rita,
683
00:42:47,250 --> 00:42:48,780
you hear that?
684
00:42:48,780 --> 00:42:51,340
Our personal guru thinks
we're going to head the ticket.
685
00:42:51,340 --> 00:42:52,450
Listen, Rita,
686
00:42:52,450 --> 00:42:53,540
why don't you
call the desk
687
00:42:53,540 --> 00:42:55,540
and reserve this suite
for a few more days?
688
00:42:55,540 --> 00:42:57,460
It'll give us a little
time for ourselves.
689
00:42:57,460 --> 00:42:59,040
No time off, Jim.
690
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,100
You'll have to make
that banker's conference
up north tomorrow.
691
00:43:02,100 --> 00:43:03,680
If you want their support
in the election,
692
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,180
you'll have to
be there and smile.
693
00:43:05,180 --> 00:43:06,100
Yeah, yeah.
I forgot about that.
694
00:43:06,100 --> 00:43:07,100
Yeah.
695
00:43:14,980 --> 00:43:16,980
What do you want now?
696
00:43:16,980 --> 00:43:18,480
Your boss invited me
697
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,400
to dig up whatever dirt
I could find, remember?
698
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,120
What's in there?
I don't know.
699
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:23,200
I'm not going to let you
700
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,700
destroy a good man's
political career.
701
00:43:26,700 --> 00:43:30,210
I figure Mr. Claman
at least deserves first look.
702
00:43:33,210 --> 00:43:35,210
What is all
this about?
703
00:43:35,210 --> 00:43:38,830
I found this in the
late Richard Newley's
personal effects.
704
00:43:38,830 --> 00:43:43,340
My guess is, whatever's in here
will explain why he called you.
705
00:43:45,970 --> 00:43:47,420
Well, do you want to see it?
706
00:43:47,420 --> 00:43:49,930
Or do you
already know?
707
00:43:53,900 --> 00:43:58,400
Mr. Chairman,
Freehold County casts four votes
708
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:03,410
for Ty Norton,
12 votes for Jim Claman!
709
00:44:55,160 --> 00:45:00,660
...from this great state,
Mr. Jeff Lehman!
710
00:45:00,660 --> 00:45:02,130
Oh, Jim, I...
711
00:45:02,130 --> 00:45:06,420
Nothing happened...
no thanks to me.
712
00:45:06,420 --> 00:45:08,920
Curtis County?
713
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:12,390
Mr. Chairman... Mr. Chairman,
the delegates of Curtis County
714
00:45:12,390 --> 00:45:17,180
cast 33 votes for our
next governor, Jim Claman!
715
00:45:29,580 --> 00:45:34,870
Well, it's... it's worked out
all right, hasn't it, Jim?
716
00:45:34,870 --> 00:45:36,830
Now you won't
need my help anyway.
717
00:46:02,810 --> 00:46:05,530
In case you're interested,
Jim,
718
00:46:05,530 --> 00:46:07,610
that was
last Wednesday,
719
00:46:07,610 --> 00:46:09,570
while you were away
on your speaking tour.
720
00:46:12,070 --> 00:46:14,070
I was tempted.
721
00:46:14,070 --> 00:46:16,570
I admit that.
722
00:46:16,570 --> 00:46:20,080
For the first time
in our marriage,
723
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:24,300
I was tempted
to look beyond you, Jim.
724
00:46:24,300 --> 00:46:27,330
But it didn't go
any further than
the pictures.
725
00:46:27,330 --> 00:46:29,390
Mrs. Claman?
726
00:46:31,220 --> 00:46:33,260
Did you know about these?
727
00:46:35,230 --> 00:46:37,230
No, Mr. Mannix.
728
00:46:37,230 --> 00:46:39,730
I offered you a bribe
729
00:46:39,730 --> 00:46:42,820
solely in the interest
of my husband.
730
00:46:42,820 --> 00:46:45,650
I knew he hadn't
done anything wrong.
731
00:46:45,650 --> 00:46:50,240
I also knew that mud,
732
00:46:50,740 --> 00:46:53,940
once it's thrown,
sticks to a man.
733
00:46:53,940 --> 00:46:58,530
It's just that you
were always gone
734
00:46:58,530 --> 00:47:02,040
while Walt
was here.
735
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,040
It was always,
"Walt, make sure
736
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,290
you take care of Rita
while I'm gone."
737
00:47:06,290 --> 00:47:11,380
That's all he did
for a very long time.
738
00:47:13,380 --> 00:47:16,220
And I've been so lonely.
739
00:47:19,720 --> 00:47:21,810
There's no reason
740
00:47:21,810 --> 00:47:24,780
to order your wife
out of your life.
741
00:47:24,780 --> 00:47:28,530
You did that
a long time ago,
742
00:47:28,530 --> 00:47:32,620
and that ghost of her
that's left
743
00:47:32,620 --> 00:47:34,620
is leaving anyway.
744
00:47:47,300 --> 00:47:49,250
I'd like to order a taxi.
745
00:47:51,750 --> 00:47:54,840
Please, Rita.
746
00:47:58,340 --> 00:48:00,840
Oh, a man can
be such a fool.
747
00:48:04,850 --> 00:48:07,820
We were both right
748
00:48:07,820 --> 00:48:11,520
and both wrong
749
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:13,490
about so
many things.
750
00:48:27,750 --> 00:48:29,760
But, in this
ball game,
751
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:31,930
there are no
ties, Mannix.
752
00:48:31,930 --> 00:48:33,930
There has to
be a winner.
753
00:48:33,930 --> 00:48:36,380
You're the winner.
754
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,110
You're right, Mr. Claman.
755
00:48:47,110 --> 00:48:49,610
Every game has a winner.
756
00:49:13,470 --> 00:49:16,470
Oh, Joe!
757
00:49:16,470 --> 00:49:18,970
I was just
calling your room.
758
00:49:18,970 --> 00:49:19,970
They said you
had checked out.
759
00:49:19,970 --> 00:49:21,170
I'm glad I caught you.
760
00:49:21,170 --> 00:49:22,760
Really?
761
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:26,060
Yes. I... I think
I owe you an apology.
762
00:49:26,060 --> 00:49:28,150
It's just, when
you were investigating
763
00:49:28,150 --> 00:49:29,650
into Richard Newley's death,
764
00:49:29,650 --> 00:49:32,150
you began to probe
a little too deeply
765
00:49:32,150 --> 00:49:33,690
into my relationship with him.
766
00:49:33,690 --> 00:49:35,770
I didn't think that
would look quite right.
767
00:49:35,770 --> 00:49:37,860
I mean, if
it got around.
768
00:49:37,860 --> 00:49:41,080
I mean, I do publish
a chain of family newspapers.
769
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,830
Clearly stated,
and apologies accepted.
770
00:49:44,830 --> 00:49:47,920
Thank you. Wait!
771
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:49,870
The past is
behind us now.
772
00:49:49,870 --> 00:49:53,210
Why don't we just
wrap ourselves
in some privacy?
773
00:49:53,210 --> 00:49:55,290
You never can tell.
774
00:49:55,290 --> 00:49:58,800
It just could possibly be
a bright, new, beautiful world.
775
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,880
Oh, I'm sorry, Claire.
What can I do?
776
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:05,350
You took my away my license
to practice in this state.
