1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,400
[Woman]Tonight on Murder, She Wrote.
2
00:00:02,469 --> 00:00:06,929
What's going on around here?
I get chased down by a driverless car.
3
00:00:07,007 --> 00:00:08,736
- My partner gets killed.
- [Screams]
4
00:00:08,809 --> 00:00:11,277
You certainly
can't let that get around.
5
00:00:11,345 --> 00:00:14,246
He's a very kind,
very gentle man.
6
00:00:14,314 --> 00:00:19,115
- But neither of us
want to see him end up in jail.
- Maybe I'm a schizoid. A Jekyll and Hyde.
7
00:00:19,186 --> 00:00:22,713
- Why don't you ease off on the speed
until you get the hang of it?
- I got it.
8
00:00:25,125 --> 00:00:26,558
Jessica!
9
00:01:20,547 --> 00:01:22,538
[Seagull Squawking]
10
00:02:29,816 --> 00:02:31,875
[Bell Ringing]
Daniel!
11
00:02:33,053 --> 00:02:37,046
[Groans]
Jessica, what are you doing?
You nearly ran into me.
12
00:02:37,124 --> 00:02:40,753
- Don't you have that
a little bit backwards?
- I guess I do.
13
00:02:40,827 --> 00:02:44,490
Do you always ride
with your head down,
watching the front wheel?
14
00:02:44,565 --> 00:02:46,863
I wasn't watching the front wheel.
I was watching this.
15
00:02:46,934 --> 00:02:48,902
What in the world is that?
16
00:02:48,969 --> 00:02:51,904
A device I rigged up
so you can monitor
yourself while you ride.
17
00:02:51,972 --> 00:02:54,907
The handle of the bikegives me my blood pressureand my pulse rate.
18
00:02:54,975 --> 00:02:56,943
It also tells me how fast I'm going.
19
00:02:57,010 --> 00:03:00,173
Well, since it now says you're doing
22 miles an hour,
20
00:03:00,247 --> 00:03:02,181
I assume it's not working properly.
21
00:03:02,249 --> 00:03:04,114
I guess it isn't.
22
00:03:05,185 --> 00:03:07,415
Well, now that we've
bumped into each other almost,
23
00:03:07,487 --> 00:03:09,421
are you coming to
the Founders Day picnic?
24
00:03:09,489 --> 00:03:12,720
Hasn't Founders Day come and gone?
Yeah, last week.
But we were rained out.
25
00:03:12,793 --> 00:03:14,954
I thought that year went by fast.
26
00:03:15,028 --> 00:03:17,997
Well, you're always buried
in that workshop of yours.
27
00:03:18,065 --> 00:03:21,057
Come on to the picnic
and relax for the day.
28
00:03:21,134 --> 00:03:23,762
I'd like to, but I can't.
Besides, I've got a houseguest.
29
00:03:23,837 --> 00:03:26,863
All the better.
Now you can both hear my speech.
30
00:03:26,940 --> 00:03:29,704
Speech?
You're not running for office?
Hardly.
31
00:03:29,776 --> 00:03:33,439
I have to wax eloquent
about Cabot Cove founding fathers.
32
00:03:33,513 --> 00:03:35,606
I don't know
how I'm gonna do it, Daniel.
33
00:03:35,682 --> 00:03:38,378
It's going to be so embarrassing
to tell the truth.
34
00:03:38,452 --> 00:03:40,443
[Chattering]
35
00:03:52,599 --> 00:03:56,000
[Man]Come on. Let's go.[Man #2] Let's go.
36
00:03:56,069 --> 00:03:58,594
[Man]Get some wood on it.
37
00:03:58,672 --> 00:04:01,766
[Cheering]
It's a lucky hit.
38
00:04:03,277 --> 00:04:07,941
Well, how does this sound?
"Captain Joshua Wayne,
a free-spirited adventurer...
39
00:04:08,015 --> 00:04:10,711
who seized opportunities
wherever he could find them."
40
00:04:10,784 --> 00:04:12,877
Jessica, he was a pirate.
41
00:04:12,953 --> 00:04:17,117
Well, I'm trying to state that
as delicately as I can.
Oh, you don't have to do that.
42
00:04:17,190 --> 00:04:20,591
We've always been
very proud of old Captain Wayne
and his Yankee gumption.
43
00:04:20,661 --> 00:04:24,563
And nobody cares that he fought
on the side of the British
in the Revolutionary War?
44
00:04:24,631 --> 00:04:27,191
He didn't.
He most certainly did.
45
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:30,668
Jessica, you certainly
can't let that get around.
46
00:04:30,737 --> 00:04:33,137
[Yelling]
47
00:04:36,576 --> 00:04:39,875
Help me. Stop it.
Stop that car.
48
00:04:41,782 --> 00:04:43,807
[Gasping]
49
00:04:43,884 --> 00:04:46,546
[Yelling]
50
00:04:48,955 --> 00:04:51,185
Help! Please, someone help!
51
00:04:52,125 --> 00:04:53,888
[Grunts]
52
00:05:08,141 --> 00:05:11,804
I'm telling you, Amos.There was nobodybehind the wheel of that car.
53
00:05:11,878 --> 00:05:14,039
Ethan, how many six-packs
did you put away?
54
00:05:14,114 --> 00:05:16,309
Are you sayin' I was drunk?
In a word, yes.
55
00:05:16,383 --> 00:05:19,819
Well, what about everybody else
who was out there?
Do you think everybody was drunk?
56
00:05:19,886 --> 00:05:23,117
Mass hysteria.
I know all about it.
I'll bet you do.
57
00:05:23,190 --> 00:05:25,988
And I suppose Ms. Fletcher
also saw this car had no driver.
58
00:05:26,059 --> 00:05:30,758
No, Jessie was too far away.
But I told her all about it.
Yeah, I'll bet you did.
59
00:05:30,831 --> 00:05:34,858
If you'll excuse me, Ethan,
I'm goin' into that hospital
and find out what really happened.
60
00:05:34,935 --> 00:05:36,926
I just told...
61
00:05:38,105 --> 00:05:42,132
I came up from Boston
to visit with an old friend of mine,
62
00:05:42,209 --> 00:05:44,200
Daniel O'Brien.
63
00:05:44,277 --> 00:05:46,871
Ouch! What the hell
are you doin' back there?
64
00:05:46,947 --> 00:05:49,541
I'm making adjustments
so you'll receive proper traction.
65
00:05:49,616 --> 00:05:52,710
Where did you learn
your technique?
On the rack?
66
00:05:52,786 --> 00:05:55,550
Mr. Woodley, your X-rays
show that nothing is broken.
67
00:05:55,622 --> 00:06:00,150
But as long as you have pain,
we'll do everything we can do
to make it better.
68
00:06:01,161 --> 00:06:03,721
Right. I'll check in on you later.
Right.
69
00:06:03,797 --> 00:06:07,358
Now, you say you came up to visit
Daniel O'Brien, hmm?
70
00:06:07,434 --> 00:06:09,994
That's right.
71
00:06:10,070 --> 00:06:12,868
He used to work for me.
That is, my company.
72
00:06:12,939 --> 00:06:14,873
Wompco Electronics.
73
00:06:15,876 --> 00:06:19,141
He called to invite me and my partner
up to visit with him.
74
00:06:19,212 --> 00:06:21,703
My partner's due in tomorrow.
75
00:06:21,782 --> 00:06:23,750
And when you got to Daniel's?
76
00:06:23,817 --> 00:06:25,751
He wasn't there.
77
00:06:25,819 --> 00:06:28,686
By the time I realized it,
my cab was gone.
78
00:06:28,755 --> 00:06:31,280
Some kid told me
that there was a picnic going on,
79
00:06:31,358 --> 00:06:33,952
and I had to walk
all the way down there.
80
00:06:34,027 --> 00:06:37,190
Hmm. Nice little town you got here.
81
00:06:37,264 --> 00:06:39,255
We like it.
82
00:06:40,767 --> 00:06:43,600
Where the hell is Daniel anyway?
83
00:06:43,670 --> 00:06:46,195
Hasn't anybody told him
that I'm being held hostage...
84
00:06:46,273 --> 00:06:48,673
in the hospital
of this quaint little village?
85
00:06:48,742 --> 00:06:51,905
Mr. Woodley, one other thing.
Uh, what?
86
00:06:51,978 --> 00:06:55,414
The car that almost hit you...
Did you happen to
get a look at the driver?
87
00:06:55,482 --> 00:07:00,613
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I was too busy running
to notice anything, but, uh...
88
00:07:00,687 --> 00:07:02,712
But what?
89
00:07:02,789 --> 00:07:06,122
Well, you... You...
You're gonna think I'm crazy,
90
00:07:06,193 --> 00:07:08,661
and maybe I am,
91
00:07:08,728 --> 00:07:12,255
but the only time
I really got a look at it,
I could have...
92
00:07:12,332 --> 00:07:14,766
I could have sworn
that nobody was driving it.
93
00:07:21,875 --> 00:07:23,866
[Doorbell Rings]
94
00:07:27,214 --> 00:07:30,547
Yes?
You must be Daniel's houseguest.
I'm Jessica Fletcher.
95
00:07:30,617 --> 00:07:33,552
Oh, yes.
You're the author.
96
00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:36,350
Daniel told me about you.
I'm Katie Simmons.
97
00:07:36,423 --> 00:07:38,755
Oh.
Yes, Daniel's out at the workshop.
98
00:07:38,825 --> 00:07:42,420
Working on a new device.
Yes. Don't I know.
99
00:07:42,496 --> 00:07:44,555
I used to work with Daniel.
Oh, really?
100
00:07:44,631 --> 00:07:47,623
Oh, yes. Uh-huh.
Is, um, that for me?
101
00:07:47,701 --> 00:07:49,965
I'm sorry. Local custom.
102
00:07:50,036 --> 00:07:51,970
Thank you very much.
You're welcome.
103
00:07:52,038 --> 00:07:53,972
I'll put it in the refrigerator.
All right.
104
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,031
And then we'll go out in back.
Good.
105
00:07:59,246 --> 00:08:01,339
Tony.
Mrs. Fletcher.
106
00:08:01,414 --> 00:08:03,746
I didn't know you were in town.
107
00:08:03,817 --> 00:08:08,083
We just got in a few days ago.
I'm showing this beautiful lady off
to my uncle. Leslie Andler.
108
00:08:08,154 --> 00:08:10,088
How do you do?
How do you do?
109
00:08:10,156 --> 00:08:13,148
Leslie, Jessica Fletcher,
Cabot Cove's
one and only celebrity.
110
00:08:13,226 --> 00:08:17,526
Only because the publishers persist
in putting authors' faces
on the dust jacket.
111
00:08:17,597 --> 00:08:20,998
I've read your books.
They're great.
It's such a pleasure to meet you.
112
00:08:21,067 --> 00:08:23,558
Thank you.
We're going to get along famously.
113
00:08:23,637 --> 00:08:26,265
In that case, uh,
why don't we invite her
to the wedding?
114
00:08:26,339 --> 00:08:30,002
Wedding?
Tony, how wonderful.
Congratulations!
115
00:08:30,076 --> 00:08:33,011
Thanks.
Thank you. Tony's been
showing me off like a new sedan.
116
00:08:33,079 --> 00:08:35,206
Yes.
Oops. Tony, the time, honey.
117
00:08:35,282 --> 00:08:39,184
Oh! Uh, Mrs. Fletcher,
we'd love to stay and chat,
but she has appointments in Portland.
118
00:08:39,252 --> 00:08:42,949
- She's gonna drop me off on the way.
- Well, you're welcome to
use my car anytime.
119
00:08:43,023 --> 00:08:45,457
Ah. That's okay.
Thanks, Katie.
120
00:08:48,361 --> 00:08:52,024
Did you ever hear the one
about the traveling saleslady?
That's me.
121
00:08:52,098 --> 00:08:55,534
I'm trying to cram in all my stopsso we can sneak off for a honeymoon.
122
00:08:55,602 --> 00:08:57,797
You sure you don't want to
stay over in Portland?
123
00:08:57,871 --> 00:09:02,308
I mean, a hundred miles round-trip's
no fun in summer traffic.
It's part of the job.
124
00:09:02,375 --> 00:09:05,401
- Are you staying here in town?
- Yeah, at the old Hansen place.
125
00:09:05,478 --> 00:09:07,537
Oh. I hope we'll be seeing
more of you later.
126
00:09:07,614 --> 00:09:09,639
You bet.
Bye-bye.
127
00:09:09,716 --> 00:09:11,308
Have a safe trip.
Bye.
128
00:09:11,384 --> 00:09:13,375
Thanks.
Okay. Thank you.
129
00:09:19,292 --> 00:09:21,283
Daniel.
130
00:09:23,396 --> 00:09:25,330
Oh, hello.
131
00:09:25,398 --> 00:09:27,696
Jessica, I think I found
the glitch in this thing.
132
00:09:27,767 --> 00:09:32,568
Oh, good. I'd feel a lot happier, though,
if you'd look up every now and again
when you're riding.
133
00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:35,267
Well, what'd you think of her?
Oh, Leslie.
134
00:09:35,342 --> 00:09:37,276
Yeah.
Oh, she's absolutely charming.
135
00:09:37,344 --> 00:09:41,041
She sure is.
My nephew met her a month ago.
A whirlwind courtship.
136
00:09:41,114 --> 00:09:43,048
He'd better nail her down fast.
137
00:09:44,050 --> 00:09:46,610
Well, that sure is interesting advice.
138
00:09:46,686 --> 00:09:50,383
Especially coming from the country's
original confirmed bachelor.
139
00:09:50,457 --> 00:09:53,085
Me? I was never confirmed.
I just never found the time.
140
00:09:53,159 --> 00:09:56,651
You just never found anyone
who would put up with
a musty old scientist.
141
00:09:56,730 --> 00:09:58,459
Did Katie tell you, Jess?
142
00:09:58,531 --> 00:10:01,022
She came here to shanghai me
to Memphis, Tennessee.
143
00:10:01,101 --> 00:10:05,435
- Wants to put me back behind a desk.
- It's a great opportunity.
144
00:10:05,505 --> 00:10:08,963
I've had enough of those.
Nothing's gonna drive me
out of this town.
145
00:10:09,042 --> 00:10:12,011
Oh? Jessica,
146
00:10:12,078 --> 00:10:14,012
maybe you better tell him.
147
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,072
- Tell me what?
- Daniel,
148
00:10:17,150 --> 00:10:20,142
something strange
happened today at the picnic.
149
00:10:20,220 --> 00:10:22,381
A friend of yours was hurt.
150
00:10:23,723 --> 00:10:26,658
- Friend? What friend?
- Charles Woodley.
151
00:10:26,726 --> 00:10:29,627
Woodley?
What's he doing in Cabot Cove?
152
00:10:30,697 --> 00:10:35,634
Well, he told Sheriff Tupper
that you had invited him and his partner
to come up and visit.
153
00:10:35,702 --> 00:10:39,832
Jessica, the only thing
I'd invite Woodley and Merrill to
would be to a hanging party.
154
00:10:39,906 --> 00:10:42,204
And only then
if I had charge of the ropes.
155
00:10:42,275 --> 00:10:45,267
Excuse me.
I need some fresh air.
156
00:10:46,446 --> 00:10:49,506
Well, what was all that about?
157
00:11:10,070 --> 00:11:13,437
[Man]E... Excuse me.Pardon me.
158
00:11:13,506 --> 00:11:18,466
Oh, good afternoon.
Yes. Could you tell me
where I might find a taxi?
159
00:11:18,545 --> 00:11:21,981
Oh, there are no taxis here.
They're down at the station.
160
00:11:22,048 --> 00:11:24,516
People usually come into town by train.
161
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:29,215
Well, my partner told me
it'd be much quicker
if I came by a chartered boat.
162
00:11:29,289 --> 00:11:32,383
Is that so?
Well, you might try old Pete.
163
00:11:32,459 --> 00:11:35,087
He'll take you anyplace
you want to go for five bucks.
164
00:11:35,161 --> 00:11:37,595
Well, where do I find old Pete?
165
00:11:38,665 --> 00:11:41,133
- At the train station.
- Naturally.
166
00:11:41,201 --> 00:11:43,226
Well, how far is that?
167
00:11:43,303 --> 00:11:45,396
Oh, it's about two miles.
That way.
168
00:11:45,472 --> 00:11:48,305
Where you goin'?
The hospital.
169
00:11:48,374 --> 00:11:51,707
Oh. That's only a mile.
That way.
170
00:11:51,778 --> 00:11:53,905
Thank you very much.
171
00:12:10,997 --> 00:12:12,988
[Engine Starts]
172
00:12:45,398 --> 00:12:46,695
[Screams]
173
00:12:51,504 --> 00:12:53,438
[Ethan]Jessica.
174
00:12:53,506 --> 00:12:55,440
It's open, Ethan.
175
00:12:56,643 --> 00:13:00,545
Jess, I'm sorry.
I heard you working, but I thought
you'd want to know about it.
176
00:13:00,613 --> 00:13:03,446
That fella from Boston... he's dead.
177
00:13:03,516 --> 00:13:05,313
Woodley?
178
00:13:05,385 --> 00:13:07,353
No. His partner, Dean Merrill.
179
00:13:07,420 --> 00:13:09,615
They found his body
by the side of the road.
180
00:13:09,689 --> 00:13:13,352
He'd been hit by a car.
The same car from the picnic.
181
00:13:13,426 --> 00:13:16,020
Nobody knows 'cause nobody saw it,
but a little while ago...
182
00:13:16,095 --> 00:13:19,758
Ernie Tatum's kids saw
that same station wagon
headin' north on...
183
00:13:19,833 --> 00:13:21,767
thank you...
on the county road.
184
00:13:21,835 --> 00:13:23,826
Were they sure?
185
00:13:23,903 --> 00:13:28,533
Kids have a way of remembering
when they see a car guzzlin' along
with no driver at the wheel.
186
00:13:29,542 --> 00:13:31,476
Jess,
187
00:13:31,544 --> 00:13:33,637
I'm worried about Amos.
188
00:13:33,713 --> 00:13:37,376
I think he's in over his head.
And you think he'd like some help.
189
00:13:37,450 --> 00:13:40,385
Well, he sure is
clearing his throat a lot.
190
00:13:41,454 --> 00:13:44,355
Clearing his throat?
Come on, woman.You play checkers with him.
191
00:13:44,424 --> 00:13:48,258
Every time he doesn't know what to do
he starts to clear his throat.
192
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:50,523
I've never told him about
that little habit,
193
00:13:50,597 --> 00:13:52,531
'cause I play poker with him too.
194
00:13:53,766 --> 00:13:58,601
Well, I'll do what I can, Ethan,
providing he wants me to help.
195
00:13:58,671 --> 00:14:00,662
[Clears Throat]
196
00:14:03,710 --> 00:14:06,838
Amos.
Oh, good afternoon, Ms. Fletcher.
197
00:14:06,913 --> 00:14:10,781
Listen, I just heard about
Mr. Merrill's accident.
What a terrible thing.
198
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:14,547
Yes, ma'am.
I mean, any ideas about
who might be responsible?
199
00:14:14,621 --> 00:14:17,522
[Clearing Throat]
Well, no, not yet,
but we are workin' on it.
200
00:14:17,590 --> 00:14:22,823
Oh. I suppose you're gonna
ask Mr. Woodley about
his prior relationship with Daniel.
201
00:14:22,896 --> 00:14:24,864
Oh, I already talked to him once.
202
00:14:24,931 --> 00:14:30,028
Yeah. And also why he thinks
that Daniel has said
that he didn't invite him to Cabot Cove.
203
00:14:30,103 --> 00:14:32,094
He didn't?
No.
204
00:14:33,273 --> 00:14:37,607
Well, l... I suppose
it wouldn't hurt to reconfirm
some of the details.
205
00:14:37,677 --> 00:14:41,613
I hear he's into electronics.
Mr. Woodley, I mean.
206
00:14:41,681 --> 00:14:43,672
That's right.
He's got his own company.
207
00:14:43,750 --> 00:14:47,516
Really? Well, I suppose
he'd be a perfect person...
208
00:14:47,587 --> 00:14:50,579
to give you some expert insight.
209
00:14:52,091 --> 00:14:54,082
Into what?
210
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,129
Uh, well, uh,
being as how he's in electronics,
211
00:14:57,196 --> 00:14:59,596
he probably knows
a good deal about, um,
212
00:14:59,666 --> 00:15:01,600
remote control,
213
00:15:01,668 --> 00:15:04,694
which I'm sure you figured out is...
214
00:15:04,771 --> 00:15:08,901
the only way that
a driverless car could be operated.
215
00:15:08,975 --> 00:15:10,966
Oh! Yes, yes, yes.
216
00:15:11,044 --> 00:15:13,604
That was the other thing
I was gonna bring up.
217
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:17,081
Uh, look, Ms. Fletcher, if...
218
00:15:17,150 --> 00:15:19,311
if you're not too busy, l...
219
00:15:19,385 --> 00:15:22,479
I'd take no offense
if you'd care to join me.
220
00:15:22,555 --> 00:15:24,648
What a fine idea.
221
00:15:24,724 --> 00:15:26,851
Might be helpful in your next book.
222
00:15:26,926 --> 00:15:30,418
Indeed it might.
Thank you, Amos.
223
00:15:30,496 --> 00:15:33,727
You've been loosening
your tension again.
I have not.
224
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,530
Now, behave yourself,
Mr. Woodley.
225
00:15:36,602 --> 00:15:38,593
This is good for you.
226
00:15:39,639 --> 00:15:43,507
Ohh. That nurse and doctor,
they really enjoy their work.
227
00:15:43,576 --> 00:15:48,138
Yeah. Uh, you were saying,
Mr. Woodley,
about remote control cars.
228
00:15:48,214 --> 00:15:51,308
The technology's been around
for many years.
229
00:15:51,384 --> 00:15:55,320
Matter of fact,
Daniel designed one for me
when he worked for my company.
230
00:15:55,388 --> 00:15:57,652
Wait a minute.
231
00:15:57,724 --> 00:15:59,658
Are you suggesting that he...
232
00:15:59,726 --> 00:16:02,354
No, Daniel's always been eccentric, but...
233
00:16:02,428 --> 00:16:05,261
but I can't believe
he's gone totally insane.
234
00:16:05,331 --> 00:16:08,300
And speaking of Daniel,
where the hell is he?
235
00:16:08,368 --> 00:16:10,893
I'm afraid he's not coming.
236
00:16:10,970 --> 00:16:15,031
He says he never invited you here...
in fact, that he never even called you.
237
00:16:15,108 --> 00:16:17,201
Now that is crazy.
238
00:16:17,276 --> 00:16:19,471
Sheriff, what's going on around here?
239
00:16:19,545 --> 00:16:24,346
I get chased down by a driverless car.My partner gets killed.
240
00:16:24,417 --> 00:16:28,376
You are quite certain
that it was a driverless car?
241
00:16:28,454 --> 00:16:30,581
Are you accusing me of something?
242
00:16:30,656 --> 00:16:32,681
Oh, no.
I wouldn't dream of doing that.
243
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:36,559
Now, look, I guess we agree that the car
is the key to this whole thing,
244
00:16:36,629 --> 00:16:39,496
and I'm gonna turn this county
upside down till I find it.
245
00:16:39,565 --> 00:16:42,625
Come on, Ms. Fletcher.
[Woman On P.A.]Nurse Goldstein to Station 12.
246
00:16:42,702 --> 00:16:47,833
Oh, no.Here comes Little Mary Sunshine.
247
00:16:49,275 --> 00:16:51,573
Ouch!
248
00:16:53,746 --> 00:16:55,680
Whoops.
[Chuckles]
[Chuckles]
249
00:16:55,748 --> 00:16:59,616
Remote-controlled cars?
Nothing new about that.
250
00:16:59,685 --> 00:17:01,619
I designed one a dozen years ago.
251
00:17:01,687 --> 00:17:03,655
I got the plans
in my workshop someplace.
252
00:17:03,723 --> 00:17:06,283
Yes, but what would
a car like that be used for?
253
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,817
Automotive testing,
military maneuvers,
motion picture stunts.
254
00:17:09,896 --> 00:17:14,094
And it would be a great boon
for people like you, Jess...
people who don't drive.
255
00:17:14,167 --> 00:17:16,362
You could get in your car,
program your destination,
256
00:17:16,436 --> 00:17:18,370
and the computer would
take you there.
257
00:17:18,438 --> 00:17:20,372
Sounds wonderful.
258
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,374
If a little far-fetched.
259
00:17:23,643 --> 00:17:26,237
No, no. I remember those designs.
260
00:17:26,312 --> 00:17:28,246
It was a wonderful concept.
261
00:17:28,314 --> 00:17:30,248
No more highway accidents.
262
00:17:30,316 --> 00:17:35,379
This car had a built-in
self-protection system
against collisions.
263
00:17:35,455 --> 00:17:37,582
How come it never happened?
[Daniel]Cost.
264
00:17:37,657 --> 00:17:40,820
That's what they always talk about.
As if human lives weren't worth a damn.
265
00:17:40,893 --> 00:17:43,885
Ms. Fletcher, uh, anything newon the investigation?
266
00:17:43,963 --> 00:17:47,421
Oh, Sheriff Tupper�s exploring
several possibilities.
267
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:49,730
Got out his old Ouija board again, huh?
268
00:17:51,170 --> 00:17:55,630
Now, Daniel, Mr. Woodley
is still insisting that you called him
and invited him up here.
269
00:17:55,708 --> 00:17:58,939
[Sighs]
Jess, if I had, don't you think
I would've remembered it?
270
00:17:59,011 --> 00:18:02,276
The man's a liar. That's all.Come on. Let's eat.
271
00:18:02,348 --> 00:18:06,114
All this talk about Woodley
is givin' me indigestion.
272
00:18:10,056 --> 00:18:12,524
Uh, Letitia?
273
00:18:12,592 --> 00:18:18,462
I know it's confidential information,
but you're going to have to trust me.
I need to know those phone numbers.
274
00:18:18,531 --> 00:18:20,863
Ah, you're a dear.
275
00:18:20,933 --> 00:18:22,924
No, I'll hold.
276
00:18:28,407 --> 00:18:31,001
Jessica, what is it?
On the phone you sounded upset.
277
00:18:31,077 --> 00:18:33,807
I may be. It depends.
Where's Daniel?
278
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,110
Well, he... he's out in back with Tony. Why?
279
00:18:37,316 --> 00:18:41,753
In the past week,
two phone calls were made
to Boston on Daniel's phone.
280
00:18:41,821 --> 00:18:45,052
What? Wh-Where did...
How did you know?
281
00:18:45,124 --> 00:18:50,528
Well, just a minute.
Now, the first one was 555-6641.
282
00:18:50,596 --> 00:18:53,121
Well, that's Tony's number
at the bank.
283
00:18:53,199 --> 00:18:57,659
And the other one was 555-9044.
284
00:19:00,706 --> 00:19:03,004
Oh.
285
00:19:03,075 --> 00:19:05,066
Oh.
286
00:19:10,850 --> 00:19:13,250
That's Charles Woodley's
private office line.
287
00:19:13,319 --> 00:19:16,186
Are you sure?
Of course I'm sure.
288
00:19:16,255 --> 00:19:18,985
I used to work for the man, remember?
289
00:19:19,992 --> 00:19:21,926
I just can't believe it.
Katie,
290
00:19:21,994 --> 00:19:24,428
we don't know
that Daniel made the calls.
291
00:19:24,497 --> 00:19:27,591
We only know
that the calls were made
on his phone.
292
00:19:32,205 --> 00:19:35,606
Can we be frank?
Well, yes, of course.
293
00:19:35,675 --> 00:19:38,235
Why was Daniel fired
by Mr. Woodley?
294
00:19:39,278 --> 00:19:41,212
Well,
295
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,216
they said that he was
wasting the company's money...
296
00:19:45,284 --> 00:19:47,548
that his notions were impractical.
297
00:19:47,620 --> 00:19:50,453
They didn't want to
deal with the future.
298
00:19:50,523 --> 00:19:52,923
And Daniel's mind is all in the future.
299
00:19:52,992 --> 00:19:55,756
Except they seem to want
to hire him again.
300
00:19:56,996 --> 00:20:00,193
Oh, there's not a chance
he'd ever go back to Woodley.
301
00:20:01,334 --> 00:20:04,303
You know, after they fired him,
302
00:20:04,370 --> 00:20:07,396
they tried to keep
his plans and designs.
303
00:20:07,473 --> 00:20:09,464
Daniel went crazy.
304
00:20:10,843 --> 00:20:13,403
No, l... I don't mean crazy.
305
00:20:13,479 --> 00:20:16,107
But he did.
He got very, very angry.
306
00:20:16,182 --> 00:20:19,913
He hired a lawyer,
and it dragged on for months.
307
00:20:19,986 --> 00:20:23,387
He won,
but it cost most of his savings.
308
00:20:24,390 --> 00:20:28,087
So he had very good reason
to hate Mr. Woodley... and his partner.
309
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,628
Oh, no.
310
00:20:30,696 --> 00:20:33,358
Daniel couldn't hurt anybody.
311
00:20:33,432 --> 00:20:35,798
Jessica, you don't know him like I do.
312
00:20:35,868 --> 00:20:37,495
He's...
313
00:20:37,570 --> 00:20:41,233
He's a very kind, very gentle man.
314
00:20:43,309 --> 00:20:45,436
He's...
[Daniel]Jessica, hello!
315
00:20:45,511 --> 00:20:48,776
You're just in time
to see me test my latest invention.
316
00:20:50,182 --> 00:20:52,878
Uh, Tony, go on over there.
317
00:20:52,952 --> 00:20:55,477
One there
and one by the birdbath, okay?
Right.
318
00:20:57,023 --> 00:21:00,515
Well, what on earth is that?
Salvation for my roses.
319
00:21:00,593 --> 00:21:03,255
If it works,
you get one for Christmas.
320
00:21:03,329 --> 00:21:05,263
Uh, you see those rods?
321
00:21:05,331 --> 00:21:08,357
Each one is a miniatureultrahigh-efficiency amplifier,
322
00:21:08,434 --> 00:21:10,629
controlled by this transmitter.
323
00:21:10,703 --> 00:21:14,867
The ultrasonic sound
should frighten the aphids
into somebody else's yard.
324
00:21:14,940 --> 00:21:18,808
All set, Uncle Dan.
Here we go!
325
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:22,780
Are we supposed to hear something?
326
00:21:22,848 --> 00:21:27,148
That's the beauty of it.To the human ear it's absolutely silent.
327
00:21:27,219 --> 00:21:29,881
[Dogs Barking]
328
00:21:33,092 --> 00:21:35,083
[Jessica Laughs]
329
00:21:36,962 --> 00:21:40,864
Oh, Daniel, I love your invention,
330
00:21:40,933 --> 00:21:45,700
but, uh, I think there'sa little room for improvement.
331
00:21:45,771 --> 00:21:47,966
Yes, I guess it does need some work.
332
00:21:50,309 --> 00:21:53,176
[Jessica Laughing]
333
00:21:53,245 --> 00:21:55,213
[Jessica]Are you sure you had enough to eat?
334
00:21:55,281 --> 00:21:57,476
Yes, thank you.I had a huge lunch in Portland.
335
00:21:57,550 --> 00:22:00,144
And you, Ethan...
You've had two helpings only today.
336
00:22:00,219 --> 00:22:02,278
I am too worn out to eat.
Oh.
337
00:22:02,355 --> 00:22:05,085
I never spent a more worthless
afternoon in my life.
338
00:22:05,157 --> 00:22:07,682
Amos had us chasin' all over creation.
339
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,923
I've got so many bug bites,
I don't know where
to start scratchin'.
340
00:22:10,996 --> 00:22:14,591
Bugs didn't have any trouble finding us,
but we didn't spot that car.
341
00:22:14,667 --> 00:22:16,635
Where did you concentrate
your search?
342
00:22:16,702 --> 00:22:19,330
Concentrate?
Oh, that's a good one.
343
00:22:19,405 --> 00:22:22,465
Amos was having fits
of divine inspiration.
344
00:22:22,541 --> 00:22:24,634
We searched the woods
behind Miller's place twice.
345
00:22:24,710 --> 00:22:29,477
Yeah. Then about 5:30,
after six hours of searching
everywhere except the barbershop,
346
00:22:29,548 --> 00:22:33,314
Amos finally tells us
where he really thinks the car is.
You're gonna love this.
347
00:22:33,386 --> 00:22:37,516
All right. Now the day of the picnic,
after the car chased Woodley
across the ballpark,
348
00:22:37,590 --> 00:22:39,956
the state police checked
the highways with a helicopter.
349
00:22:40,025 --> 00:22:42,050
All right.They spotted a large moving van...
350
00:22:42,128 --> 00:22:44,392
heading north on Highway 27,
toward Augusta...
351
00:22:44,463 --> 00:22:46,454
Coffee, darling.
Thanks, hon.
352
00:22:46,532 --> 00:22:49,660
And Amos...bless his pointy little head...
353
00:22:49,735 --> 00:22:53,034
is convinced that the car
was hidden in that van.
354
00:22:53,105 --> 00:22:58,771
That doesn't make any sense
because the next day
that very same car ran down Mr. Merrill.
355
00:22:58,844 --> 00:23:00,778
Maybe. Now, remember, Jessie,
356
00:23:00,846 --> 00:23:04,282
there were no witnesses
except the Tatum kids,
and they could've made a mistake.
357
00:23:04,350 --> 00:23:07,410
I'm sorry, but I don't think the car
ever reached the highway.
358
00:23:07,486 --> 00:23:12,480
Did you look aroundthat stretch of woodsjust east of the old Gentry farm?
359
00:23:12,558 --> 00:23:17,586
Come on, Jessie. That place is so overgrownyou couldn't hide a tricycle in there,let alone a car.
360
00:23:17,663 --> 00:23:21,656
No. If you joggedevery morning like I do,you'd learn something.
361
00:23:21,734 --> 00:23:25,101
There are at least a dozen ways
in and out, if you know where to look.
362
00:23:25,171 --> 00:23:27,901
Sheriff Tupper sure didn't.
363
00:23:27,973 --> 00:23:31,101
I'll call him first thing
tomorrow morning.
364
00:23:31,177 --> 00:23:33,407
The answer is no.
365
00:23:33,479 --> 00:23:35,947
That's "no" with a capital N-O.
366
00:23:36,015 --> 00:23:39,280
Heard you perfectly well
the first time, Amos.
367
00:23:39,351 --> 00:23:41,581
Now, look here, Ms. Fletcher,
I am sorry,
368
00:23:41,654 --> 00:23:44,987
but I am in no position to waste
any more taxpayers' money...
369
00:23:45,057 --> 00:23:47,389
Iookin' for some...
some phantom car...
370
00:23:47,460 --> 00:23:49,690
that could be halfway
to Newfoundland by now.
371
00:23:49,762 --> 00:23:53,459
You and I know that that car was not
swallowed up in any moving van.
372
00:23:53,532 --> 00:23:55,466
I don't know any such thing.
373
00:23:55,534 --> 00:24:00,494
That car ran down Dean Merrill
the day after you claimed it was carted off.
374
00:24:00,573 --> 00:24:02,598
We don't know that either.
375
00:24:02,675 --> 00:24:06,406
Sheriff, think.
Two partners arrive from Boston...
376
00:24:06,479 --> 00:24:08,845
to a tiny town
they've never seen before.
377
00:24:08,914 --> 00:24:11,280
One of them is
almost run down by a car.
378
00:24:11,350 --> 00:24:14,217
The next day the other is run down.
379
00:24:14,286 --> 00:24:17,221
Now, don't you think
that's more than just coincidence?
380
00:24:17,289 --> 00:24:20,816
All I know is that my budget
is in desperate trouble,
381
00:24:20,893 --> 00:24:23,885
and I don't plan to
get myself in the same condition.
382
00:24:23,963 --> 00:24:26,591
Then you don't mind
if I look around on my own?
383
00:24:26,665 --> 00:24:28,656
You go right ahead, Ms. Fletcher.
384
00:24:28,734 --> 00:24:31,464
And when you come back
after finding nothin',
385
00:24:31,537 --> 00:24:35,906
you make sure you come straight here
and tell me what it is you didn't find.
386
00:24:35,975 --> 00:24:37,966
I'll do that.

A-yah.

[Sighs]
Oh, Jessie. Are you all right?
400
00:29:36,508 --> 00:29:40,877
And you wonder
why I don't drive a car.
[Sighs]
401
00:29:44,349 --> 00:29:48,649
Thank you, Ethan.
You sure you don't want some hot tea
or bouillon, hot chocolate... somethin'?
402
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,711
No, it's just great.
403
00:29:53,425 --> 00:29:55,552
I'm afraid, Ms. Fletcher, that, uh,
404
00:29:55,627 --> 00:30:00,690
remote control device sounds
an awful lot like the one Woodley says
Daniel O'Brien invented.
405
00:30:00,766 --> 00:30:03,200
Don't jump to conclusions, Amos.
406
00:30:03,268 --> 00:30:06,499
I'm sure all these devices
operate on the same principle.
407
00:30:06,572 --> 00:30:08,540
Maybe so.
408
00:30:08,607 --> 00:30:10,541
But there's more.
409
00:30:11,543 --> 00:30:14,944
We found these
in the back of the station wagon.
410
00:30:15,013 --> 00:30:18,540
It's a bunch of lettersand designs and sketches.
411
00:30:18,617 --> 00:30:21,643
And they all haveDaniel O'Brien's name on them.
412
00:30:24,623 --> 00:30:27,558
I'm afraid, ma'am,
I'm gonna have to
bring him in for questioning.
413
00:30:33,765 --> 00:30:37,565
Daniel, I just want you to know
that I don't believe a word of this.
414
00:30:37,636 --> 00:30:39,627
That's all right, Jessica.
415
00:30:39,705 --> 00:30:42,105
Sheriff Tupper�s just doing his job.
416
00:30:42,174 --> 00:30:45,007
Those designs have to be
in here somewhere.
417
00:30:45,077 --> 00:30:47,068
Ah.
418
00:30:47,145 --> 00:30:49,136
No.
419
00:30:51,783 --> 00:30:54,843
Tony, when you and Leslie
left my house last night,
420
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,514
did you go straight to your place?
421
00:30:57,589 --> 00:31:01,047
No, no. As a matter of fact,
we stopped by and saw
Uncle Daniel and Katie. Why?
422
00:31:01,126 --> 00:31:04,357
Well, did you or Leslie
happen to mention my notion...
423
00:31:04,429 --> 00:31:08,058
that the driverless car
might have been hidden
at the old Gentry farm?
424
00:31:08,133 --> 00:31:12,194
Yeah, we discussed it.
Uh, didn't think it was any secret.
Hmm.
425
00:31:12,271 --> 00:31:14,933
Ah, here we are.
426
00:31:30,522 --> 00:31:33,923
Daniel, I'm sorry,
but you're going to have to
come with me.
427
00:31:33,992 --> 00:31:36,426
[Katie]What? Why?
428
00:31:36,495 --> 00:31:40,090
I'm afraid, ma'am,
that device in the wagon
looks exactly like these photographs.
429
00:31:40,165 --> 00:31:42,156
[Tony]Sheriff, that doesn't mean a thing.
430
00:31:42,234 --> 00:31:44,134
[Tupper]Maybe. Maybe not.
431
00:31:44,202 --> 00:31:46,329
We'll see.
432
00:32:00,385 --> 00:32:02,319
Tony, what's going on?
433
00:32:02,387 --> 00:32:05,151
The sheriff's taking my uncle in
for some questioning.
Why?
434
00:32:05,223 --> 00:32:08,317
Ah... Look, I'll explain later.
435
00:32:15,701 --> 00:32:18,363
Tony.
436
00:32:18,437 --> 00:32:20,462
I love your uncle.
You know that.
437
00:32:21,473 --> 00:32:23,441
It's just that...
438
00:32:23,508 --> 00:32:26,636
we've both noticed
he's been behaving rather strangely.
439
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,776
Well, he's always been like that.
440
00:32:31,917 --> 00:32:35,353
I still think you should arrange
to have someone examine him.
441
00:32:35,420 --> 00:32:39,117
A psychiatrist?
No, that's not necessary.
442
00:32:41,093 --> 00:32:43,687
Tony, I know
you love him very much.
443
00:32:43,762 --> 00:32:46,060
Sometimes these things just happen.
444
00:32:48,266 --> 00:32:50,826
I don't really want to
talk about it right now.
445
00:32:54,873 --> 00:32:56,898
How was your trip to Portland?
Marvelous.
446
00:32:56,975 --> 00:32:58,909
Mmm?
I wrote three orders...
447
00:32:58,977 --> 00:33:02,538
and got propositioned
by a gorgeous hunk
who runs a zipper factory.
448
00:33:02,614 --> 00:33:05,913
Wow!
[Chuckles]
That's the one order I didn't get.
449
00:33:06,918 --> 00:33:08,852
You weren't too disappointed?
450
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,911
No. But he was.
451
00:33:20,232 --> 00:33:26,171
It seems incredible that a company
should get rid of a man like Daniel
with such vision and intelligence.
452
00:33:26,238 --> 00:33:29,730
Well, it was because
they said he was wasting money.
453
00:33:29,808 --> 00:33:32,971
Frankly, I think Woodley
was just trying to save his salary.
454
00:33:33,045 --> 00:33:35,639
In my opinion,
they were just up against it.
455
00:33:35,714 --> 00:33:37,648
And it was a partnership?
456
00:33:37,716 --> 00:33:41,914
Fifty-fifty.
Merrill provided the money,
Woodley ran the show.
457
00:33:41,987 --> 00:33:45,514
And now that Merrill is dead,
what happens?
458
00:33:45,590 --> 00:33:47,524
Woodley gets it all.
Oh.
459
00:33:47,592 --> 00:33:49,753
If there is anything.
I see.
460
00:33:49,828 --> 00:33:53,229
The rumor is the company
is in financial trouble,
461
00:33:53,298 --> 00:33:55,630
despite the big contract
they just landed.
462
00:33:56,768 --> 00:34:01,535
Strange the partners should
show up here in Cabot Cove
when they're in financial difficulty.
463
00:34:01,606 --> 00:34:03,540
You suppose there's a connection?
464
00:34:03,608 --> 00:34:05,405
I wonder.
465
00:34:06,611 --> 00:34:10,604
[Daniel]I'll admit it, Jessica. I am scared.
466
00:34:10,682 --> 00:34:12,809
I never spent the nightin a jail before.
467
00:34:12,884 --> 00:34:14,818
I don't recommend it.
468
00:34:14,886 --> 00:34:16,877
I wish you wouldn't worry.
469
00:34:16,955 --> 00:34:19,287
The sheriff doesn't have a case.
470
00:34:21,093 --> 00:34:24,790
I keep wondering somehow
if I could have done it
and not remember.
471
00:34:25,797 --> 00:34:29,289
Maybe I'm a schizoid.
A Jekyll and Hyde.
472
00:34:29,367 --> 00:34:32,029
I doubt that.
473
00:34:32,104 --> 00:34:34,698
Katie told you about
my stay in a sanitarium.
474
00:34:34,773 --> 00:34:37,674
For heaven's sakes, Daniel,
that was years ago.
475
00:34:37,742 --> 00:34:40,404
A man who'd rather
frighten aphids than kill them?
476
00:34:40,479 --> 00:34:42,743
You couldn't hurt anyone.
477
00:34:44,683 --> 00:34:48,779
The lawyer Tony got
wants me to undergo
a psychiatric examination.
478
00:34:50,122 --> 00:34:53,956
I think he's laying the groundwork
for a plea of temporary insanity.
479
00:34:54,025 --> 00:34:56,152
That is ridiculous.
480
00:34:56,228 --> 00:34:58,287
It sounds as if
he's already given up.
481
00:34:58,363 --> 00:35:00,297
No, no.
Tony says he's very good.
482
00:35:00,365 --> 00:35:02,925
Is he good enough
to get you bailed out of here?
483
00:35:03,001 --> 00:35:05,993
Oh, he and Katie promise
I'll be home for supper.
484
00:35:06,071 --> 00:35:09,097
There's someone
who believes in you.
485
00:35:11,343 --> 00:35:13,436
She always has.
486
00:35:19,217 --> 00:35:21,151
Ms. Fletcher.
487
00:35:21,219 --> 00:35:23,210
Oh.
[Chuckles]
Hello, Tony.
488
00:35:25,557 --> 00:35:28,424
You got a problem
with the bike?
Flat tire.
489
00:35:28,493 --> 00:35:31,121
Here. Let me give you a lift.
Thanks.
490
00:35:32,164 --> 00:35:35,156
Whoo. Let me get my purse.
491
00:35:35,233 --> 00:35:37,224
Thanks.
492
00:35:39,905 --> 00:35:42,772
Mrs. Fletcher,
how's my uncle holding up?
493
00:35:42,841 --> 00:35:44,775
I know you just saw him
at the jail.
494
00:35:44,843 --> 00:35:47,539
He's frightened.
And understandably so.
495
00:35:52,117 --> 00:35:55,678
You know, Tony, he's not crazy.
496
00:35:55,754 --> 00:35:57,745
I hope you're right.
497
00:36:02,027 --> 00:36:04,359
The examination's
just a precaution. That's all.
498
00:36:04,429 --> 00:36:06,397
It's just in case.
499
00:36:06,464 --> 00:36:09,126
In case of what?
That he's indicted for murder?
Yes.
500
00:36:09,201 --> 00:36:11,431
Oh, but that's ridiculous.
Mrs. Fletcher, please.
501
00:36:11,503 --> 00:36:15,701
It... It's... It's easy for you
to dismiss the situation,
but I'm the one with the responsibility.
502
00:36:15,774 --> 00:36:19,107
I'm his only living relative.
I'm gonna look out for him.
503
00:36:19,177 --> 00:36:24,342
Look, uh, we... we gotta get some gas.
This gauge has been acting up.
I don't know how much we have.
504
00:36:24,416 --> 00:36:27,351
Leslie's been going
back and forth to Portland.
505
00:36:27,419 --> 00:36:29,444
It'll just take a minute.

Fill her up for ya?
Yeah, please, would ya?
And, uh, check the oil too.
510
00:36:47,138 --> 00:36:51,131
Tony, what happens to
your uncle's estate if he should die?
511
00:36:51,209 --> 00:36:55,043
I guess it goes to me...
uh, what there is of it.
Wh-Which probably isn't very much.
512
00:36:55,113 --> 00:36:57,206
All those patents and designs?
513
00:36:57,282 --> 00:36:59,307
Surely it must be worth a great deal.
514
00:36:59,384 --> 00:37:04,253
Most likely. But he's already told me
he's got 'em earmarked for the University
of Maine, which is his alma mater.
515
00:37:04,322 --> 00:37:06,449
I guess he figures
they'll take good care of �em.
516
00:37:06,524 --> 00:37:08,492
Well, your oil's just fine.
517
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,654
The gas comes to, uh, $7.08.
Okay.
518
00:37:22,173 --> 00:37:24,641
What's the matter?
Oh, I got something in my eye.
519
00:37:24,709 --> 00:37:26,939
Do you have a tissue in here?
Yeah. Help yourself.
520
00:37:27,012 --> 00:37:28,946
Thanks.

unbalanced,
528
00:37:57,876 --> 00:38:02,540
but, uh, what I do know is that
neither of us want to see him
end up in jail.
529
00:38:02,614 --> 00:38:04,980
No, we don't.
530
00:38:05,050 --> 00:38:09,384
Whatever happened to the notion
"innocent until proven guilty"?
531
00:38:45,223 --> 00:38:47,714
He's on time.
What a shame.
532
00:38:51,162 --> 00:38:54,222

It's not as if I'm being committed.

Uh, I think that should do it.
537
00:39:16,121 --> 00:39:18,749

you never can tell.

for six years.

that you saw on the roadwhen you were chasing me?

Uh, yeah. Sure.

00:40:14,679 --> 00:40:19,139
that that driverless car
was operated from that van.

easy, why don't you try it?

it might be best if you were here.

this whole thing is kind of screwy.

Tell me, Leslie,
whatever made you rush
to this particular vehicle?

00:43:18,730 --> 00:43:23,667
Well, I thought I could drive it
onto the field and block
that station wagon before it hit anyone.
607
00:43:23,735 --> 00:43:27,569
Well, why didn't you use
your own car?
Because this one seemed bigger.
608
00:43:27,639 --> 00:43:33,043
Well, it certainly is.
But I'm sure it doesn't get
the gas mileage that your car does.
609
00:43:33,111 --> 00:43:35,102
Gas mileage?
610
00:43:35,179 --> 00:43:37,704
Yes. The mileage you got
on those trips to Portland.

00:43:37,782 --> 00:43:39,716

What is this?
617
00:43:54,399 --> 00:43:56,333
It doesn't wash, Leslie.
618
00:43:56,401 --> 00:43:59,768
Yesterday I wondered
why Tony had to buy so little gas,
619
00:43:59,837 --> 00:44:02,032
so I peeked at
the car rental agreement.
620
00:44:02,106 --> 00:44:05,564
I saw the mileagewhen you rented the car,
621
00:44:05,643 --> 00:44:07,736
and I saw the current mileage.
622
00:44:07,812 --> 00:44:10,975
And a little simple subtraction...
623
00:44:11,049 --> 00:44:13,984
told me that no way
could you have made those trips.
624
00:44:14,052 --> 00:44:16,145
Well, I changed my mind.I never went.
625
00:44:16,220 --> 00:44:18,381
That's not what you told me.
626
00:44:18,456 --> 00:44:21,050
Leslie, what's goin' on here?
627
00:44:21,125 --> 00:44:23,059
Well, it was his idea.
628
00:44:23,127 --> 00:44:25,595
He thought the whole thing up.He forced me into it.
629
00:44:25,663 --> 00:44:28,359
Leslie, keep your big mouth shut!
They don't have anything.
630
00:44:28,433 --> 00:44:33,268

for this, Charles, you're crazy!
If I go, you go too!
631
00:44:44,182 --> 00:44:46,616
[Laughter]
632
00:44:46,684 --> 00:44:51,986
I tell you, Jessica.
When you asked me to help out
with that remote control gadget,
633
00:44:52,056 --> 00:44:54,456
I thought you were crazy.
[Chuckles]
634
00:44:54,525 --> 00:44:58,461
You know, it was that arcade game
that triggered the answer.
635
00:44:58,529 --> 00:45:02,829
Arcade game?
I kept crashing into things,
even when I slowed down.
636
00:45:02,900 --> 00:45:06,358
Then the day at the picnic
flashed across my mind.
637
00:45:06,437 --> 00:45:10,601
It was the speed of the driverless car
that bothered me.
638
00:45:10,675 --> 00:45:14,133
I mean, Mr. Woodley managedto stay ahead of it all the way...
639
00:45:14,212 --> 00:45:16,180
from the outfield to home plate.
640
00:45:16,247 --> 00:45:19,410
Now, I was in that car, and it was fast.
641
00:45:19,484 --> 00:45:22,715
I mean, if someone had really beenintent on running Mr. Woodley down,
642
00:45:22,787 --> 00:45:25,312
he wouldn't have reachedsecond base.
643
00:45:25,389 --> 00:45:28,756
And it was Leslie in the van,
controlling the car.
644
00:45:28,826 --> 00:45:31,488
While Woodley was
conveniently laid up in a bed,
645
00:45:31,562 --> 00:45:33,496
she did the dirty work.
646
00:45:33,564 --> 00:45:36,328
- Well, why did they do it?
- Well, simple greed.
647
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,732
Mr. Woodley,
being the surviving partner,
648
00:45:38,803 --> 00:45:41,101
would wind up withthe entire company.
649
00:45:41,172 --> 00:45:43,868
With Daniel judged insane
for killing Merrill,
650
00:45:43,941 --> 00:45:48,435
Tony would control the estate,and Leslie would control Tony.
651
00:45:48,513 --> 00:45:52,005
Mr. Woodley would have
Daniel's security screen all to himself.
652
00:45:52,083 --> 00:45:56,577
Security screens?
I came up with that 10 years ago.
It's not worth a damn.
653
00:45:56,654 --> 00:45:59,452
Well, not then it wasn't,but according to Woodley's confession,
654
00:45:59,524 --> 00:46:02,391
it was the key to
a multimillion-dollar contract
they'd just landed.
655
00:46:02,460 --> 00:46:05,020
The simple way, of course,
would have been to kill you.
656
00:46:05,096 --> 00:46:08,031
But then the universitywould have inherited your designs.
657
00:46:08,099 --> 00:46:11,660
Then it was Leslie who madethe phone call on Daniel's phone.
658
00:46:11,736 --> 00:46:14,296
Yeah, what a hell of a marriage
that would've been.
659
00:46:14,372 --> 00:46:16,306
Speaking of which,
660
00:46:16,374 --> 00:46:19,343
may I offer a toast
to the two ladies in my life?
661
00:46:19,410 --> 00:46:21,674
To the one
who just saved my life...
662
00:46:21,746 --> 00:46:24,840
and to the other
who's been saving it for years,
663
00:46:24,916 --> 00:46:27,885
only I was too preoccupied to notice.
664
00:46:30,855 --> 00:46:35,224
Well, if you will all excuse me,
I gotta go.
665
00:46:35,293 --> 00:46:38,592
Go? Go where?
[Whispers]
McIntyre�s.
666
00:46:38,663 --> 00:46:40,654
Wait, Ethan. Hold up.
667
00:46:42,867 --> 00:46:44,858
[Sighs]
668
00:46:44,936 --> 00:46:48,531
I've made up my mind.
I'm not goin' to Memphis with you.
669
00:46:48,606 --> 00:46:50,164
Oh.
670
00:46:51,242 --> 00:46:54,678
But I'll move heaven and earth
to get you to stay on here with me.
671
00:47:07,658 --> 00:47:11,594
I'm sorry to eat and run, Jess,
but they're having a tournament
on that arcade game,
672
00:47:11,662 --> 00:47:14,825
and since I am
the current record holder,
673
00:47:14,899 --> 00:47:17,094
I feel obliged to defend my title.
674
00:47:17,168 --> 00:47:19,932
Well, dishes can wait.
Would you mind if I competed?
675
00:47:20,004 --> 00:47:21,995
You?
676
00:47:22,073 --> 00:47:24,769
It really would be
kind of a waste of a good quarter.
677
00:47:24,842 --> 00:47:27,436
Well, maybe.
But I better warn you.
678
00:47:27,511 --> 00:47:29,445
I've been practicing a little.
679
00:47:29,513 --> 00:47:31,504
Practicing?
680
00:47:32,783 --> 00:47:35,047
How much practicing?
