177
00:08:44,790 --> 00:08:47,384
Maybe so, but she's there
and you're here,
178
00:08:47,460 --> 00:08:49,451
and there's nothing
either one of us
can do about it.
179
00:08:49,529 --> 00:08:50,587
I know it.
180
00:08:50,663 --> 00:08:52,255
Hey, look,
it's only three days.
181
00:08:52,331 --> 00:08:53,593
You got
nothing to worry about,
182
00:08:53,666 --> 00:08:55,725
as long as you stay away
from the spaghetti.
183
00:08:56,602 --> 00:08:58,365
I've never been in a jail yet
184
00:08:58,437 --> 00:09:00,769
where the spaghetti sauce
wasn't a real killer.
185
00:09:05,778 --> 00:09:08,713
Well, look, honey,
Rocky's waiting
out in the car.
186
00:09:10,116 --> 00:09:12,175
We got a date
with a semi in Oxnard.
187
00:09:12,818 --> 00:09:13,910
You're not going?
188
00:09:13,986 --> 00:09:16,887
Yeah. If I don't,
I'm gonna hear about it
for the next 10 years.
189
00:09:17,523 --> 00:09:19,388
Jim, I need your help.
190
00:09:19,458 --> 00:09:21,756
Oh, well, fine. Fine.
You just make a list
of what you need,
191
00:09:21,827 --> 00:09:24,921
and on the way back
we'll drop by your apartment,
pick up whatever you want.
192
00:09:24,997 --> 00:09:26,362
Not that kind of help.
193
00:09:26,432 --> 00:09:28,457
I'm working on
a tax evasion case.
194
00:09:28,534 --> 00:09:30,126
I can't wait three days
195
00:09:30,202 --> 00:09:32,466
to prepare the defense.
I can't wait three hours.
196
00:09:32,538 --> 00:09:33,869
And you want me
to do what?
197
00:09:33,940 --> 00:09:36,033
I've got all the material
I need at the office.
198
00:09:36,108 --> 00:09:37,575
Oh, you want me
to call the office
199
00:09:37,643 --> 00:09:39,543
and have them
send it over here to you?
200
00:09:39,612 --> 00:09:40,977
They closed at 5:30.
201
00:09:41,047 --> 00:09:43,379
I've already made arrangements
to meet my client here.
202
00:09:43,449 --> 00:09:44,882
Would you go to my office?
203
00:09:44,951 --> 00:09:47,351
Open the safe,
I'll give you
the combination,
204
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:49,854
and bring me back
a large manila envelope
205
00:09:49,922 --> 00:09:51,685
with the name
"Arnold Bailey"
written on it.
206
00:09:51,757 --> 00:09:52,849
Come on, Beth.
207
00:09:52,925 --> 00:09:55,519
I mean, Rocky's really
ticked off at me already.
208
00:09:55,595 --> 00:09:57,085
Anyone can
play messenger.
209
00:09:57,163 --> 00:09:58,653
Jim, I wouldn't
give just anybody
210
00:09:58,731 --> 00:10:00,289
the combination
to my safe.
211
00:10:03,970 --> 00:10:05,403
I trust you.
212
00:10:08,274 --> 00:10:09,468
Thanks.
213
00:10:12,078 --> 00:10:13,306
(CAR HORN HONKING)
214
00:10:58,524 --> 00:11:00,219
He keeps passing out.
215
00:11:00,292 --> 00:11:01,691
We can dump
some more water on him
216
00:11:01,761 --> 00:11:03,592
if you want
to talk to him, sir.
217
00:11:03,663 --> 00:11:05,426
Did you get
the information?
218
00:11:05,498 --> 00:11:06,556
Oh, yeah.
219
00:11:06,632 --> 00:11:08,691
Then I don't
wanna talk to him.
220
00:11:08,768 --> 00:11:10,133
You know where to find it.
221
00:11:10,469 --> 00:11:11,629
Pick it up.
222
00:11:11,704 --> 00:11:14,298
Oh, we'll keep him alive
until we're sure he leveled.
223
00:11:14,373 --> 00:11:16,841
You hurt like he does,
you level.
224
00:11:17,176 --> 00:11:19,303
Pick it up now. Tonight.
225
00:11:25,618 --> 00:11:27,882
It's a nice,
clean job, Walt.
226
00:11:27,953 --> 00:11:29,614
Not a mark on him.
227
00:11:30,356 --> 00:11:31,653
Except he can't walk.
228
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:34,786
He won't have to.
229
00:11:36,762 --> 00:11:38,457
Okay. So long.
230
00:11:42,768 --> 00:11:43,894
Well? What'd he say?
231
00:11:43,969 --> 00:11:45,960
I told him we'd be there
first thing in the morning.
232
00:11:46,038 --> 00:11:47,027
Early.
233
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:49,730
Well, then it's
still for sale.
234
00:11:49,809 --> 00:11:52,642
Well, no thanks to you.
It could have been sold.
235
00:11:52,712 --> 00:11:54,339
Yeah, but it wasn't.
236
00:13:16,395 --> 00:13:19,728
(SCUFFLING)
237
00:13:38,551 --> 00:13:39,643
Jim!
238
00:13:40,252 --> 00:13:41,879
Jim, what happened?
239
00:13:41,954 --> 00:13:43,046
You all right?
240
00:13:43,122 --> 00:13:44,749
Yeah. I think so.
241
00:13:44,824 --> 00:13:45,950
Man, you were
gone so long
242
00:13:46,025 --> 00:13:48,186
I figured I'd better
come look for you.
243
00:13:48,260 --> 00:13:50,251
What is it? Huh?
What is it?
244
00:13:50,329 --> 00:13:52,923
I was carrying
a big manila envelope.
245
00:13:54,767 --> 00:13:56,530
I don't see nothing.
246
00:13:57,269 --> 00:14:00,067
That's 'cause there's
nothing left to see.
247
00:14:05,578 --> 00:14:07,546
You say Rocky didn't
witness the attack?
248
00:14:07,613 --> 00:14:08,705
No.
249
00:14:08,781 --> 00:14:11,011
No. I was waiting in the car.
250
00:14:11,083 --> 00:14:12,675
You see, what was
happening was,
251
00:14:12,751 --> 00:14:15,311
Jim and me were fixing
to go up to Oxnard.
252
00:14:15,387 --> 00:14:17,514
I'm thinking about
buying a semi.
253
00:14:17,590 --> 00:14:19,615
Yeah. There were two of them?
254
00:14:19,692 --> 00:14:21,353
No, no, no.
Just the one.
255
00:14:21,427 --> 00:14:23,327
It's a cabover
with a 40-foot trailer,
256
00:14:23,395 --> 00:14:25,260
beautiful paint job...
257
00:14:26,098 --> 00:14:28,430
There were two of them,
both of them about my height.
258
00:14:28,500 --> 00:14:31,992
That's a swell description.
Probably pick them up
before morning.
259
00:14:32,071 --> 00:14:33,971
I told you the lights
were out, Dennis.
260
00:14:34,039 --> 00:14:35,233
What am I, an owl?
261
00:14:35,307 --> 00:14:37,639
Okay, Jimbo. I'll file
a John Doe A and B,
262
00:14:37,710 --> 00:14:40,042
which won't put you anywhere
except on the record.
263
00:14:40,112 --> 00:14:41,136
File it?
264
00:14:41,213 --> 00:14:42,771
Well, what are you sore about?
265
00:14:42,848 --> 00:14:44,145
I'm an eccentric.
266
00:14:44,216 --> 00:14:46,446
I have a peculiar
aversion to violence,
267
00:14:46,518 --> 00:14:48,884
particularly when
it's directed at me.
268
00:14:49,088 --> 00:14:50,521
You got an aspirin?
269
00:14:50,656 --> 00:14:52,487
Yeah. You got a headache?
270
00:14:52,558 --> 00:14:54,355
No, I connected
with one of those guys.
271
00:14:54,426 --> 00:14:55,825
Feels like I hit
a freight train.
272
00:14:55,895 --> 00:14:57,886
Hey, you might've
hurt something, Jim.
273
00:14:57,963 --> 00:14:59,487
Maybe you ought
to go see a doctor.
274
00:14:59,565 --> 00:15:03,661
Oh, I'm all right, Rocky.
I just gotta remember that,
275
00:15:03,836 --> 00:15:06,361
the next time
I run into those guys,
276
00:15:06,438 --> 00:15:10,272
you can't play the jawbone
and the human hand
like cymbals.
277
00:15:10,342 --> 00:15:11,400
You know
what I'm thinking?
278
00:15:11,477 --> 00:15:13,411
I think maybe
you better try
not finding them.
279
00:15:13,479 --> 00:15:15,379
They done enough damage
to you already.
280
00:15:15,447 --> 00:15:18,678
Yeah. You know, we could work
backwards on this thing.
281
00:15:18,751 --> 00:15:21,447
We could find out from Beth
what she kept in her safe.
282
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,250
That'd let us know
who had a motive
for ripping it off.
283
00:15:24,323 --> 00:15:26,348
Well, I could get
a lab team over there,
284
00:15:26,425 --> 00:15:28,552
check the place out
for prints.
285
00:15:29,128 --> 00:15:30,493
How did they
get into the safe?
286
00:15:31,263 --> 00:15:34,824
I had the combination
written down
on a slip of paper.
287
00:15:34,900 --> 00:15:36,492
It's an open case.
288
00:15:36,568 --> 00:15:37,592
Hmm?
289
00:15:37,670 --> 00:15:39,103
You made the rule,
I didn't make it.
290
00:15:39,204 --> 00:15:40,933
You don't work
on open cases.
291
00:15:41,006 --> 00:15:42,530
Now, you filed
a police report,
292
00:15:42,608 --> 00:15:44,405
and that makes it
police business.
293
00:15:44,476 --> 00:15:47,104
I'm the one
that ended up eating
six feet of shag rug,
294
00:15:47,179 --> 00:15:48,544
and that makes it my business.
295
00:15:48,614 --> 00:15:51,412
Well, you can't go around
changing the rules
just to please yourself.
296
00:15:51,483 --> 00:15:52,780
Oh, yes, I can.
297
00:15:52,851 --> 00:15:54,876
Well, I'll order
the lab team over there,
298
00:15:54,954 --> 00:15:56,615
then we'll go over
to Beth's apartment.
299
00:15:56,689 --> 00:15:59,385
Yeah, well, she's not
at her apartment.
300
00:15:59,458 --> 00:16:00,686
No? Where is she?
301
00:16:01,427 --> 00:16:02,917
She's in jail.
302
00:16:04,663 --> 00:16:06,290
I'm afraid she's not here.
303
00:16:06,365 --> 00:16:07,525
Well, of course
she's here.
304
00:16:07,599 --> 00:16:09,590
She's serving
three days for contempt.
305
00:16:09,668 --> 00:16:11,363
I was with her
just a few hours ago.
306
00:16:11,437 --> 00:16:13,302
My name's
in the visitor's book.
307
00:16:13,372 --> 00:16:14,999
Elizabeth Davenport?
308
00:16:16,575 --> 00:16:18,668
Miss Davenport
was here, Sergeant,
309
00:16:18,744 --> 00:16:20,234
but she's no longer with us.
310
00:16:20,312 --> 00:16:22,473
Could you be just
a little more specific?
311
00:16:25,284 --> 00:16:28,014
Well, she was transferred
to the prison ward
in County General.
312
00:16:28,787 --> 00:16:30,846
What's she doing
in a hospital?
What's wrong?
313
00:16:32,992 --> 00:16:34,459
We'd like an answer, okay?
314
00:16:36,161 --> 00:16:38,959
Our security system's
as good as any in the country.
315
00:16:39,031 --> 00:16:40,623
I don't know how
it could've happened.
316
00:16:40,699 --> 00:16:42,098
What happened?
317
00:16:42,568 --> 00:16:44,001
She was poisoned.
318
00:16:53,912 --> 00:16:56,642
Now, how come you two
get to see her, and I don't?
319
00:16:56,715 --> 00:16:58,774
We can't all go
trooping in there, Rocky.
320
00:16:58,851 --> 00:17:00,716
Well, I'm tired
of waiting in the car.
321
00:17:00,786 --> 00:17:02,583
Well, nobody said
you had to wait in the car.
322
00:17:02,654 --> 00:17:04,121
You can wait in the hall.
323
00:17:10,662 --> 00:17:13,563
WOMAN ON INTERCOM:
Dr. Fernandez,outside call on line nine.
324
00:17:14,433 --> 00:17:17,732
Dr. Fernandez,outside call on line nine.
325
00:17:43,195 --> 00:17:44,287
Hey.
326
00:17:48,467 --> 00:17:50,935
I warned you
about the spaghetti.
327
00:17:56,375 --> 00:17:57,706
I'm here, too.
328
00:18:04,016 --> 00:18:06,280
And Rocky's outside.
329
00:18:08,387 --> 00:18:10,821
Doctor says you're
gonna be fine.
330
00:18:11,223 --> 00:18:12,884
You came close,
you know that?
331
00:18:13,992 --> 00:18:15,482
Yeah. I know.
332
00:18:16,328 --> 00:18:19,024
We talked to
the investigating officer,
333
00:18:19,898 --> 00:18:22,196
but we'd like
to hear it from you, too.
334
00:18:22,434 --> 00:18:23,526
You feel up to it?
335
00:18:25,537 --> 00:18:27,801
Just tell us exactly
what happened, Beth.
336
00:18:28,674 --> 00:18:30,301
I got permission
337
00:18:30,909 --> 00:18:32,536
to see a client,
338
00:18:32,744 --> 00:18:34,268
Arnold Bailey.
339
00:18:36,215 --> 00:18:38,149
I'm working on a case.
340
00:18:40,686 --> 00:18:44,247
During the meeting
the matron brought in
a pot of coffee.
341
00:18:44,590 --> 00:18:45,784
Did you ask for it?
342
00:18:46,158 --> 00:18:47,250
No.
343
00:18:50,028 --> 00:18:52,462
I thought it was
a nice thing
for them to do.
344
00:18:53,765 --> 00:18:56,029
Drank about a cup and a half.
345
00:18:56,368 --> 00:18:57,801
Did Bailey drink any?
346
00:19:01,373 --> 00:19:03,398
What was in the coffee?
347
00:19:04,009 --> 00:19:05,704
Sodium cyanide.
348
00:19:06,645 --> 00:19:10,103
It's very fast acting,
so you became ill
within minutes.
349
00:19:10,182 --> 00:19:12,707
It's probably
what saved your life.
350
00:19:15,554 --> 00:19:17,715
Who would want
to kill you?
351
00:19:20,325 --> 00:19:22,657
The poison was meant
for Bailey,
352
00:19:23,595 --> 00:19:24,584
must have been.
353
00:19:25,564 --> 00:19:26,622
Why?
354
00:19:27,499 --> 00:19:29,467
Oh, it couldn't
have been for me.
355
00:19:30,169 --> 00:19:32,865
Well, he could've
arranged for the coffee.
356
00:19:34,540 --> 00:19:36,405
It doesn't make sense.
357
00:19:37,042 --> 00:19:39,510
He's the one
that called for help.
358
00:19:39,745 --> 00:19:41,303
Well, what was he
supposed to do
359
00:19:41,380 --> 00:19:44,315
with a guard standing
right outside the door?
360
00:19:45,450 --> 00:19:47,247
So what's his motive?
361
00:19:48,020 --> 00:19:49,248
Well,
362
00:19:50,122 --> 00:19:51,384
you're his lawyer.
363
00:19:51,456 --> 00:19:54,516
He could have told you
something incriminating
364
00:19:55,360 --> 00:19:57,851
and had a change
of heart about it.
365
00:19:57,963 --> 00:19:59,624
That's ridiculous.
366
00:19:59,698 --> 00:20:03,134
He'd know
I couldn't testify
against him in court.
367
00:20:05,037 --> 00:20:07,062
Well, two guys
jumped me
368
00:20:07,139 --> 00:20:09,130
when I went
to your office tonight.
369
00:20:11,210 --> 00:20:14,304
They took the envelope
with Bailey's name on it.
370
00:20:15,314 --> 00:20:16,576
You're kidding.
371
00:20:16,648 --> 00:20:19,208
Along with everything else
that was in the safe,
372
00:20:19,284 --> 00:20:20,512
cleaned it out.
373
00:20:20,852 --> 00:20:23,252
It wasn't
an ordinary theft, Beth.
374
00:20:23,722 --> 00:20:25,883
Not when it ties in
with an attempted murder.
375
00:20:26,825 --> 00:20:30,386
I'd like to have
a list of everything
that was in the safe.
376
00:20:30,462 --> 00:20:33,625
To the very last
piece of paper. Okay?
377
00:20:34,032 --> 00:20:35,397
I'll do what I can.
378
00:20:43,842 --> 00:20:45,571
You get some sleep.
379
00:20:48,847 --> 00:20:50,576
We'll be back
in the morning.
380
00:21:06,063 --> 00:21:08,156
All right, Jim.
I gotta make a call.
381
00:21:08,232 --> 00:21:09,256
I'll meet you in the car.
382
00:21:09,333 --> 00:21:10,527
All right, Dennis.
383
00:21:10,601 --> 00:21:12,228
How is she?
Did you tell her
I came to see her,
384
00:21:12,303 --> 00:21:13,429
but they wouldn't
let me in?
385
00:21:13,504 --> 00:21:14,596
Yeah, I told her.
386
00:21:14,672 --> 00:21:16,196
Oh, man,
it's a terrible thing,
isn't it?
387
00:21:16,274 --> 00:21:18,504
Oh, this fella
over there,
Arnold Bailey,
388
00:21:18,576 --> 00:21:20,908
he's the guy was with her
when she was took sick.
389
00:21:20,978 --> 00:21:22,468
Oh, yeah?
390
00:21:22,780 --> 00:21:24,475
WOMAN ON INTERCOM:
Dr. Virginia Williams to ENT.
391
00:21:24,548 --> 00:21:26,015
Hi, Mr. Bailey?
That's right.
392
00:21:26,083 --> 00:21:28,415
Jim Rockford.
I'm a friend
of Beth Davenport's.
393
00:21:28,486 --> 00:21:30,716
Yes. Your father mentioned
that you were visiting her.
394
00:21:30,788 --> 00:21:31,755
How is she?
395
00:21:31,822 --> 00:21:32,982
Alive.
396
00:21:33,491 --> 00:21:36,392
Doctor give you
any idea about how long
she'd be hospitalized?
397
00:21:36,894 --> 00:21:38,725
You worried about
your indictment?
398
00:21:39,930 --> 00:21:42,490
Mr. Rockford,
I've never seen you
before in my life.
399
00:21:42,566 --> 00:21:44,659
I'm not about to discuss
my case with you.
400
00:21:44,735 --> 00:21:46,293
I discuss it
with my attorney.
401
00:21:46,737 --> 00:21:47,795
Period.
402
00:21:49,273 --> 00:21:52,333
Beth almost dies
and he's worried
about a tax beef.
403
00:21:52,410 --> 00:21:53,843
Mr. Bailey,
404
00:21:53,911 --> 00:21:56,004
you have lousy priorities.
405
00:22:06,324 --> 00:22:09,760
I should have known
if you said you were buying
it'd be something like this.
406
00:22:10,227 --> 00:22:11,524
Best tacos in town.
407
00:22:11,729 --> 00:22:13,060
For breakfast?
408
00:22:13,998 --> 00:22:15,056
You ever tried it?
409
00:22:15,433 --> 00:22:16,559
Pass.
410
00:22:18,636 --> 00:22:19,728
What did you hear
from the lab?
411
00:22:19,937 --> 00:22:21,063
Nothing.
412
00:22:21,138 --> 00:22:22,571
You mean they
turned up nothing,
413
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,232
or they told
you nothing?
414
00:22:24,308 --> 00:22:25,639
I'll have another
cup of coffee.
415
00:22:25,710 --> 00:22:27,803
And another taco, please.
416
00:22:28,346 --> 00:22:31,144
Well, they dusted
the safe in Beth's office.
417
00:22:31,215 --> 00:22:32,648
It was wiped clean.
418
00:22:32,717 --> 00:22:34,617
So that angle's dead.
419
00:22:35,019 --> 00:22:36,611
Real pro job.
420
00:22:37,254 --> 00:22:38,949
I got the list
from Beth this morning.
421
00:22:39,023 --> 00:22:40,012
And?
422
00:22:40,091 --> 00:22:41,353
And I'll check it out.
423
00:22:41,425 --> 00:22:43,655
Not much to go on.
Just a bunch of names.
424
00:22:43,728 --> 00:22:45,286
And every time
I asked her a question,
425
00:22:45,363 --> 00:22:47,593
it was
"privileged information."
426
00:22:47,665 --> 00:22:49,132
Dennis,
427
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,828
what's this,
"I'll check it out"?
We'll check it out.
428
00:22:51,902 --> 00:22:54,496
Since when did you
join the LAPD?
429
00:22:54,839 --> 00:22:56,101
Come on, Dennis.
430
00:22:56,173 --> 00:22:57,538
Go fishing.
431
00:22:57,608 --> 00:23:00,805
I'm not gonna step on
any departmental toes.
432
00:23:00,878 --> 00:23:02,641
I'll keep a low profile.
433
00:23:02,713 --> 00:23:03,737
You're out.
434
00:23:04,615 --> 00:23:06,583
Someone tried to kill Beth,
435
00:23:06,650 --> 00:23:08,550
and I got fed
into a kicking machine.
436
00:23:08,619 --> 00:23:10,553
I've got a personal interest
in this one.
437
00:23:11,622 --> 00:23:13,351
I'll let you know
how it turns out.
438
00:23:20,798 --> 00:23:22,698
Buy your own breakfast.
439
00:23:26,971 --> 00:23:28,871
Hey, I only had the coffee.
440
00:23:29,173 --> 00:23:31,403
I already gave
the list to Dennis.
441
00:23:31,475 --> 00:23:33,773
Well, Dennis doesn't
wanna play show and tell,
442
00:23:33,844 --> 00:23:35,812
so now you're giving it to me.
443
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,006
Did you make a duplicate?
444
00:23:37,081 --> 00:23:39,515
I'm an attorney.
We're crazy for paperwork.
445
00:23:42,052 --> 00:23:43,280
All right.
446
00:23:47,725 --> 00:23:49,454
Well, this is pretty cryptic.
447
00:23:50,227 --> 00:23:52,457
"Maynard Forbes, certificate."
448
00:23:52,530 --> 00:23:53,827
What kind of certificate?
449
00:23:53,898 --> 00:23:55,160
Oh, come on, Jim. That's...
450
00:23:55,232 --> 00:23:58,030
I know. I know.
That's privileged. Right?
451
00:24:00,371 --> 00:24:03,169
"Frances Bagley,
last will and testament.
452
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,505
"George VanDeusen,
last will and testament.
453
00:24:06,677 --> 00:24:09,703
"Hallie Chilberg,
assignment of rights."
454
00:24:10,047 --> 00:24:11,912
Privileged? Mmm-hmm.
455
00:24:12,917 --> 00:24:14,680
"Fred Metcalf, letter."
456
00:24:14,752 --> 00:24:16,982
Well, you can do
better than that.
I mean, that's it?
457
00:24:17,054 --> 00:24:18,544
Letter? What kind of letter?
458
00:24:18,622 --> 00:24:20,112
I don't know.
459
00:24:20,658 --> 00:24:23,354
Beth, someone tried
to kill you.
460
00:24:23,427 --> 00:24:25,793
Now, you can carry
confidentiality too far.
461
00:24:25,863 --> 00:24:27,797
I just told you,
I don't know.
462
00:24:27,865 --> 00:24:29,924
He just gave me
a letter to hold for him.
463
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,058
When?
464
00:24:31,135 --> 00:24:32,568
About five years ago.
465
00:24:32,636 --> 00:24:34,627
Oh, well, that can't be it.
466
00:24:35,739 --> 00:24:39,368
"William Thornton,
last will and testament."
467
00:24:40,044 --> 00:24:41,944
You lose many clients?
468
00:24:46,250 --> 00:24:49,845
What kind of a letter
would you keep
in an attorney's safe
469
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,354
for five years?
Who is Metcalf, anyway?
470
00:24:52,423 --> 00:24:53,515
He's the Vice President
471
00:24:53,591 --> 00:24:56,890
of the American Brotherhood
of Affiliated Machine
and Textile Workers,
472
00:24:56,961 --> 00:25:00,055
but I don't think the letter
would have anything to do
with union business.
473
00:25:00,130 --> 00:25:02,598
I represent Fred personally,
not the Local.
474
00:25:02,666 --> 00:25:04,861
Did he say anything
when he gave it to you?
475
00:25:05,503 --> 00:25:07,334
No. He just asked me
to hold it for him.
476
00:25:07,404 --> 00:25:09,668
But he didn't tell you
not to open it.
477
00:25:10,174 --> 00:25:12,108
He didn't have to.
478
00:25:12,176 --> 00:25:15,145
As a matter of fact,
he told me I should open it
if anything happened to him.
479
00:25:15,212 --> 00:25:16,338
Well, Beth!
480
00:25:16,413 --> 00:25:19,348
It probably had to do
with the administration
of his estate.
481
00:25:21,085 --> 00:25:24,452
Is there any connection
between Bailey and Metcalf?
482
00:25:25,189 --> 00:25:26,520
Not to my knowledge.
483
00:25:28,893 --> 00:25:30,451
Did you tell Becker
about the letter?
484
00:25:30,528 --> 00:25:31,552
No.
485
00:25:31,629 --> 00:25:32,926
And what Metcalf said?
486
00:25:32,997 --> 00:25:34,225
No. Why?
487
00:25:34,698 --> 00:25:36,222
If he calls you,
you tell him.
488
00:25:36,300 --> 00:25:37,597
What are you
gonna be doing?
489
00:25:37,668 --> 00:25:40,068
I'm gonna be
checking on Metcalf.
490
00:25:45,476 --> 00:25:47,239
Oh, you're feeling better.
491
00:28:53,629 --> 00:28:55,529
BECKER: Tell her to snap to it
with that, okay?
492
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,192
You know, I ought
to throw the book at you.
493
00:28:59,268 --> 00:29:00,257
For what?
494
00:29:00,336 --> 00:29:02,463
For interfering
in a police investigation.
495
00:29:02,538 --> 00:29:04,438
I'm not interfering.
I'm helping.
496
00:29:04,507 --> 00:29:07,271
The police department
doesn't want your help.
497
00:29:07,343 --> 00:29:08,640
Look, Dennis,
498
00:29:08,711 --> 00:29:10,872
they're releasing Beth
from the hospital tomorrow.
499
00:29:10,947 --> 00:29:13,313
Now, I think somebody's
liable to take another
crack at her.
500
00:29:13,382 --> 00:29:14,849
So don't tell me
not to help.
501
00:29:14,917 --> 00:29:17,442
If you got
anything solid
to go on, turn it in.
502
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:18,612
We'll follow through.
503
00:29:18,688 --> 00:29:20,178
Will you follow through
on a hunch?
504
00:29:20,256 --> 00:29:21,416
'Cause that's all I got.
505
00:29:21,491 --> 00:29:23,118
All right. Spill it.
506
00:29:23,192 --> 00:29:25,387
Well, Metcalf was
a union biggie.
507
00:29:25,461 --> 00:29:27,793
Vice President in charge
of guess what?
508
00:29:27,997 --> 00:29:29,157
Pension fund.
509
00:29:29,232 --> 00:29:30,221
Bingo.
510
00:29:30,299 --> 00:29:32,290
And that's
a multi-million dollar
temptation.
511
00:29:32,368 --> 00:29:33,562
Do you think
he was skimming?
512
00:29:33,636 --> 00:29:34,967
It's possible.
513
00:29:35,037 --> 00:29:37,835
Whatever it was, he was in it
with somebody he didn't trust.
514
00:29:37,907 --> 00:29:40,705
Five years ago
he gave Beth a letter
to hold for him
515
00:29:40,777 --> 00:29:43,712
and instructed her
to open it if anything
happened to him.
516
00:29:43,780 --> 00:29:45,145
An insurance policy.
517
00:29:45,214 --> 00:29:48,479
Yeah. I think
he probably wrote
everything down on paper.
518
00:29:48,551 --> 00:29:51,179
Names, dates,
the works, as protection.
519
00:29:51,254 --> 00:29:53,017
Only they beat
on the soles of his feet
520
00:29:53,089 --> 00:29:54,249
until he told them
where it was.
521
00:29:54,323 --> 00:29:57,724
And then they canceled
the insurance and the insured.
522
00:29:57,827 --> 00:29:59,419
And if they think
Beth read that letter,
523
00:29:59,495 --> 00:30:01,963
then the attempt
on her life starts
to make sense.
524
00:30:03,299 --> 00:30:05,699
You don't know
how good it feels
to be out of county hands.
525
00:30:05,768 --> 00:30:07,065
Oh, I have an idea.
526
00:30:07,136 --> 00:30:10,333
I am so sick
of county clothes
and county food.
527
00:30:10,406 --> 00:30:12,931
When you get me home
I'm gonna make
an enormous omelet.
528
00:30:13,009 --> 00:30:13,998
Mushroom, maybe.
529
00:30:14,076 --> 00:30:16,010
How does that sound?
Mushroom, a little cheese.
530
00:30:16,078 --> 00:30:17,705
Yeah. I'll have to stop
and pick up some eggs.
531
00:30:17,780 --> 00:30:18,769
Oh, I have eggs.
532
00:30:18,848 --> 00:30:20,577
Yeah, but I haven't.
You're coming home with me.
533
00:30:20,650 --> 00:30:21,674
Why?
534
00:30:21,751 --> 00:30:23,309
I want to keep
an eye on you
535
00:30:23,386 --> 00:30:25,581
until we find out
who iced Fred Metcalf.
536
00:30:25,655 --> 00:30:28,317
Without knowing
what was in the letter,
that could take a long time.
537
00:30:28,391 --> 00:30:31,224
Yeah. Yeah, it could,
couldn't it?
538
00:30:54,050 --> 00:30:55,677
What are we gonna do, Jim?
539
00:30:55,751 --> 00:30:57,776
I mean, I can't
hide out forever.
540
00:30:59,455 --> 00:31:01,980
And how long can you devote
riding shotgun with me?
541
00:31:02,058 --> 00:31:03,491
Honestly, I'm all right.
542
00:31:03,559 --> 00:31:04,548
Yeah.
543
00:31:43,666 --> 00:31:46,396
We'll never lose them
in this traffic.
It's too dangerous.
544
00:31:46,469 --> 00:31:48,528
Somebody's gonna get hurt.
545
00:33:17,860 --> 00:33:20,385
Keep driving in circles,
but don't leave the yard.
546
00:33:58,768 --> 00:34:00,531
(POLICE SIREN WAILING)
547
00:34:12,448 --> 00:34:13,745
Right where you are.
548
00:34:13,816 --> 00:34:15,113
Officer...
549
00:34:15,184 --> 00:34:16,617
Against the car. Move!
550
00:34:16,685 --> 00:34:18,915
There's
an explanation
for this.
551
00:34:18,988 --> 00:34:20,182
I can't wait
to hear it.
552
00:34:20,256 --> 00:34:22,747
You know, I think
you should arrest
those two guys over there.
553
00:34:22,858 --> 00:34:25,793
BECKER: Okay. I arrested
the two guys who you say
were chasing you.
554
00:34:25,861 --> 00:34:29,194
But do you know
how many violations
you racked up?
555
00:34:29,265 --> 00:34:31,426
I was trying
to get arrested.
556
00:34:32,101 --> 00:34:33,830
Well, congratulations.
You made it.
557
00:34:33,903 --> 00:34:36,895
Well, what was I
supposed to do, Dennis?
I couldn't shake them.
558
00:34:36,972 --> 00:34:38,963
Now this is
the second attempt
on Beth's life.
559
00:34:39,041 --> 00:34:41,908
Why don't you just
run a check on them,
find out who they are?
560
00:34:41,977 --> 00:34:43,308
I know who they are.
561
00:34:43,479 --> 00:34:44,503
You want to share it?
562
00:34:44,580 --> 00:34:45,706
Yeah.
563
00:34:45,981 --> 00:34:48,211
Walter Rayner,
Howard Nystrom.
564
00:34:49,752 --> 00:34:50,912
Never heard of them.
565
00:34:51,620 --> 00:34:52,780
Who do they work for?
566
00:34:53,189 --> 00:34:54,588
They're self-employed.
567
00:34:54,890 --> 00:34:55,879
I'll bet.
568
00:34:56,592 --> 00:34:59,083
Well, if they are,
they're doing pretty good.
569
00:34:59,161 --> 00:35:01,925
They got some
high-priced legal talent.
570
00:35:02,398 --> 00:35:04,059
Sprung them
just like that.
571
00:35:06,402 --> 00:35:08,267
You think you could
do the same for us?
572
00:35:10,005 --> 00:35:11,438
Jim, it's me.
573
00:35:11,507 --> 00:35:12,599
I'm gonna drive up to...

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

...to Oxnard. I'm gonna...
576
00:35:16,212 --> 00:35:17,770
I'll call you right back.
577
00:35:23,119 --> 00:35:24,108
Hi, Rocky.
578
00:35:24,186 --> 00:35:26,279
I was just talking
to your machine there.
579
00:35:26,355 --> 00:35:29,085
Hey, what are you all
dressed up for?
580
00:35:29,158 --> 00:35:31,388
Well, I'm driving
up to Oxnard
to see that semi.
581
00:35:31,460 --> 00:35:32,791
I thought you wanted me
to go with you.
582
00:35:32,862 --> 00:35:34,159
Well, I did,
583
00:35:34,230 --> 00:35:36,926
but your time's
sort of been taken up
the last couple of days.
584
00:35:36,999 --> 00:35:38,967
Sit down.
Sit down, Beth.
585
00:35:39,034 --> 00:35:40,296
I'm glad to see
you're feeling better.
586
00:35:40,369 --> 00:35:43,668
You know, I stopped
into the hospital to see you,
but they wouldn't let me in.
587
00:35:43,739 --> 00:35:45,366
Jim told me. Thanks.
588
00:35:45,441 --> 00:35:47,909
Hey, Rocky, we'll go
up there this afternoon
and take a look at it.
589
00:35:47,977 --> 00:35:49,205
I can't wait any longer.
590
00:35:49,278 --> 00:35:51,143
I'll bet you that
Pete Schofield
read that ad.
591
00:35:51,213 --> 00:35:52,612
I'll bet he's
on his way up
right now.
592
00:35:52,681 --> 00:35:54,911
I'm only asking
for a few hours.
593
00:35:54,984 --> 00:35:57,680
You don't buy a semi
just like that.
594
00:35:57,753 --> 00:35:59,948
I mean, there's paperwork
and all that.
595
00:36:00,022 --> 00:36:02,513
Besides, I got something
I gotta check out,
596
00:36:02,591 --> 00:36:03,853
and I can't
take Beth with me,
597
00:36:03,926 --> 00:36:04,984
and I can't
leave her alone.
598
00:36:05,060 --> 00:36:06,459
You can, but you won't.
599
00:36:06,529 --> 00:36:08,463
Well, she could drive up
to Oxnard with me.
600
00:36:08,531 --> 00:36:11,091
I don't want her
leaving this house.
601
00:36:11,167 --> 00:36:12,964
Jim, if Rocky has some...
602
00:36:13,035 --> 00:36:14,696
What do you say, Rocky?
603
00:36:14,770 --> 00:36:15,964
Just a few hours?
604
00:36:16,038 --> 00:36:17,164
Maybe less.
605
00:36:19,408 --> 00:36:20,602
How's your pinochle?
606
00:36:21,710 --> 00:36:22,734
Thank you, Rocky.
607
00:36:22,811 --> 00:36:23,800
Want a coffee?
608
00:36:23,879 --> 00:36:25,073
Oh, thanks, I'd love it.
609
00:36:26,749 --> 00:36:28,546
Now, I don't want you
leaving here.
610
00:36:28,617 --> 00:36:30,482
What are you
gonna do?
I'm going out.
611
00:36:30,553 --> 00:36:32,487
Jim, aren't you
gonna tell me
where you're going?
612
00:36:32,555 --> 00:36:34,420
No. You probably
wouldn't approve.
613
00:36:34,790 --> 00:36:36,189
Jim, I'm worried.
614
00:36:36,258 --> 00:36:38,624
Who put up
the bail bond
for Arnold Bailey?
615
00:36:38,694 --> 00:36:39,991
Solly Marshall. Why?
616
00:36:40,296 --> 00:36:41,285
I'll tell you later.
617
00:36:41,363 --> 00:36:42,387
Tell me now.
618
00:36:42,464 --> 00:36:43,863
Beth, I am swinging wild.
619
00:36:43,933 --> 00:36:45,298
I'm just playing
hunches, that's all.
620
00:36:45,367 --> 00:36:48,495
Bull! You've got something
and I want to know what it is.
621
00:36:49,672 --> 00:36:51,367
Well, while you were
talking to Dennis,
622
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,670
I got on the phone
to Bailey's office.
623
00:36:53,742 --> 00:36:55,710
He has dropped out of sight.
624
00:36:55,778 --> 00:36:57,712
I got his secretary
just a little confused,
625
00:36:57,780 --> 00:37:01,375
and she told me
that Arnold Bailey was
Fred Metcalf's stockbroker.
626
00:37:01,450 --> 00:37:02,712
So, what does that prove?
627
00:37:02,785 --> 00:37:05,845
Well, for one thing it proves
they knew each other,
and for another,
628
00:37:05,921 --> 00:37:08,446
it gives me
a queasy feeling
about Bailey,
629
00:37:08,524 --> 00:37:11,254
which, I've gotta admit,
I've had from the start
of this thing.
630
00:37:11,327 --> 00:37:12,589
What are you gonna do?
631
00:37:12,861 --> 00:37:15,796
Well, since I can't
find out where
Bailey disappeared to,
632
00:37:15,864 --> 00:37:18,298
I'll just go have
a little talk
with his bail bondsman.
633
00:37:18,934 --> 00:37:21,835
What on earth could Solly
possibly tell you?
634
00:37:22,571 --> 00:37:24,061
Maybe plenty.
635
00:37:31,479 --> 00:37:33,709
Hey, Solly, you're
just the man I want to see.
636
00:37:33,781 --> 00:37:35,339
Not now, Jim.
Got no time.
637
00:37:35,416 --> 00:37:37,884
Hey, Solly, Solly.
Come on, do yourself a favor.
638
00:37:37,952 --> 00:37:40,477
Now, take a break.
Come on. Sit down.
639
00:37:41,155 --> 00:37:42,383
Solly,
640
00:37:43,625 --> 00:37:45,593
nobody likes
losing money, right?
641
00:37:45,860 --> 00:37:47,452
What do you expect,
an argument?
642
00:37:47,795 --> 00:37:51,196
What's it worth to you
if I clue you in
on a possible skip?
643
00:37:51,566 --> 00:37:52,931
What skip? Who? Who?
644
00:37:53,001 --> 00:37:55,367
Well, wait a minute.
First we have to deal.
645
00:37:55,436 --> 00:37:56,801
How about
646
00:37:57,038 --> 00:37:58,062
$500?
647
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:00,598
I ain't gonna
pay you no $500.
648
00:38:00,675 --> 00:38:03,803
Not until you tell me
how much he's into me for
and what was the bond?
649
00:38:03,878 --> 00:38:05,243
If I tell you that, Solly,
650
00:38:05,313 --> 00:38:08,805
you'll be able
to figure out who it is
and you won't need me.
651
00:38:09,083 --> 00:38:10,880
Jim, would I stiff you?
652
00:38:10,952 --> 00:38:12,214
Sure you would.
653
00:38:14,822 --> 00:38:15,880
So what do we do?
654
00:38:15,957 --> 00:38:18,255
Well, I won't give you
the exact figure,
655
00:38:18,326 --> 00:38:20,624
but I will say
it is sizeable.
656
00:38:21,729 --> 00:38:23,560
Sizeable?
What is sizeable?
657
00:38:23,631 --> 00:38:25,292
$20,000, $30,000?
658
00:38:25,366 --> 00:38:26,833
I'm not gonna
tell you, Solly.
659
00:38:26,901 --> 00:38:29,734
But, let's just say
it's $35,000, huh?
660
00:38:29,804 --> 00:38:32,432
Now, if it's $35,000
and your client skips,
661
00:38:32,507 --> 00:38:35,704
that's 35,000
less $3,500 that he put up.
662
00:38:35,777 --> 00:38:39,269
That's $31,500
out of your pocket.
663
00:38:39,747 --> 00:38:42,215
And then insurance will
cost you about $1,000.
664
00:38:42,283 --> 00:38:44,751
But then let's say
it's $50,000.
If it's $50,000...
665
00:38:44,819 --> 00:38:46,013
$1,000!
666
00:38:46,154 --> 00:38:48,054
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa!
667
00:38:49,257 --> 00:38:50,383
$500.
668
00:38:52,293 --> 00:38:54,056
That's it.
Who's the skip?
669
00:38:54,128 --> 00:38:56,653
No, possible skip.
Arnold Bailey.
670
00:38:56,731 --> 00:38:59,291
Oh, come on, Jim.
That's a crummy tax beef.
671
00:38:59,367 --> 00:39:01,392
And it was only
a $20,000 bond.
672
00:39:01,469 --> 00:39:02,868
Solly, Solly.
673
00:39:02,937 --> 00:39:06,304
Hey, first timers
are big skippers.
Everybody knows that.
674
00:39:06,374 --> 00:39:08,137
Now, you take a hooker
with a client list,
675
00:39:08,209 --> 00:39:09,403
she's gonna be there forever.
676
00:39:09,477 --> 00:39:11,536
But your average
stock broker type...
677
00:39:11,612 --> 00:39:12,943
I know. I know. I know.
678
00:39:13,014 --> 00:39:15,005
Well, now, I know
a couple of things
about him.
679
00:39:15,083 --> 00:39:17,483
He is not at his house,
and he's not at his office.
680
00:39:17,552 --> 00:39:18,610
So where is he?
681
00:39:18,686 --> 00:39:19,710
How do I know?
682
00:39:19,787 --> 00:39:22,915
Come on, Solly, don't tell me
you didn't stay with him
for a couple of days
683
00:39:22,990 --> 00:39:25,322
just to see that he wasn't
liquidating his assets.
684
00:39:25,393 --> 00:39:26,485
You always do.
685
00:39:26,561 --> 00:39:30,292
Well, I put a tail on him
for a couple of days
after I bailed him out, but...
686
00:39:30,365 --> 00:39:31,491
And?
687
00:39:33,067 --> 00:39:34,864
Where does he go?
Who does he see?
688
00:39:36,104 --> 00:39:38,629
I got so many people
to keep track of. I...
689
00:39:42,677 --> 00:39:46,204
Bailey. Bailey.
The athletic club.
He's a French food nut.
690
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:47,269
See, there's
this little place on...
691
00:39:47,348 --> 00:39:48,747
Who does he see, Solly?
692
00:39:49,150 --> 00:39:50,378
You mean see regular?
693
00:39:50,451 --> 00:39:51,850
Yeah, regular.
694
00:39:54,021 --> 00:39:56,956
There's this...
Some dame. A secretary.
695
00:39:57,158 --> 00:39:59,558
He's got an apartment
off Verdugo Lane.
696
00:39:59,627 --> 00:40:01,185
Two Twenty Seven Sixteen.
697
00:40:02,163 --> 00:40:04,188
Two Twenty Seven Sixteen.
698
00:40:37,064 --> 00:40:38,088
I wonder if you can tell me
699
00:40:38,166 --> 00:40:39,758
which one is
the Bailey apartment.
700
00:40:53,448 --> 00:40:54,540
(RINGING)
701
00:40:55,716 --> 00:40:56,842
Hello?
702
00:40:56,918 --> 00:40:58,977
I been sitting on him
like you said.
703
00:40:59,053 --> 00:41:00,953
He's got a visitor.
Who?
704
00:41:01,022 --> 00:41:04,116
Tall guy, dark hair.
I've never seen him before.
705
00:41:04,192 --> 00:41:05,750
Stay where you are.
I'll be out there.
706
00:41:05,827 --> 00:41:07,317
If they make a move,
you move. Got it?
707
00:41:07,895 --> 00:41:09,453
That's what I'm here for.
708
00:41:14,535 --> 00:41:16,162
Yes?
Mr. Bailey in?
709
00:41:16,237 --> 00:41:17,932
BAILEY: If that's the cab,
tell him to wait.
710
00:41:18,005 --> 00:41:19,267
It isn't.
711
00:41:24,378 --> 00:41:26,073
What are you doing here?
712
00:41:26,214 --> 00:41:28,148
I was going
to send him away,
Arnold, but...
713
00:41:28,216 --> 00:41:30,912
It's all right, honey.
Go inside and finish packing.
714
00:41:30,985 --> 00:41:32,316
All right.
715
00:41:38,526 --> 00:41:40,255
You forgot to say,
"May I," Mr. Rockford,
716
00:41:40,328 --> 00:41:43,195
so you can just take
a couple of giant steps
back out that door.
717
00:41:43,264 --> 00:41:44,356
And if you don't, I'II...
718
00:41:44,432 --> 00:41:45,660
You'll call the cops?
719
00:41:47,702 --> 00:41:49,169
Or call your secretary?
720
00:41:49,237 --> 00:41:50,966
Hey, you really should,
you know.
721
00:41:51,038 --> 00:41:52,437
She's worried about you.
722
00:41:52,507 --> 00:41:56,204
She thinks you're out
someplace brooding over
Fred Metcalf's death.
723
00:41:56,611 --> 00:41:57,737
Fred Metcalf?
724
00:41:57,812 --> 00:41:59,211
Yeah, you remember Fred?
725
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,306
The guy in charge
of that nice, big,
fat union pension fund?
726
00:42:02,383 --> 00:42:03,748
I don't know what
you're talking about,
727
00:42:03,818 --> 00:42:04,876
and I haven't
got time to listen.
728
00:42:04,952 --> 00:42:06,044
I'm going on a business trip.
729
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:07,883
It's just been canceled.
730
00:42:07,955 --> 00:42:09,889
Who do you think you are?
Now get out of here!
731
00:42:09,957 --> 00:42:11,549
Any time you're ready.
732
00:42:11,626 --> 00:42:12,888
Arnold?
733
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:14,655
Look, you stay out of this.
734
00:42:16,998 --> 00:42:19,159
All right, what am I
supposed to have done?
735
00:42:19,233 --> 00:42:20,564
Come on, tell me. What?
736
00:42:21,068 --> 00:42:24,401
Well, I think you tried
to kill Beth Davenport.
737
00:42:24,672 --> 00:42:27,072
Of course, you were
more successful with Metcalf.
738
00:42:27,141 --> 00:42:29,336
That isn't true.
I had nothing to do
with Fred's death.
739
00:42:29,410 --> 00:42:31,537
Well, you look
number one to me, pal,
740
00:42:31,612 --> 00:42:35,605
and I think for once
the cops and I are gonna
be in total agreement.
741
00:42:36,584 --> 00:42:38,643
Well, this is ridiculous.
I'm getting out...
742
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,277
Now, hold it.
743
00:43:04,145 --> 00:43:05,806
I can't swim!
744
00:43:16,457 --> 00:43:18,550
I didn't murder him. I didn't.
745
00:43:18,626 --> 00:43:19,718
You're making a mistake.
746
00:43:19,794 --> 00:43:21,159
Make me believe it.
747
00:43:22,463 --> 00:43:23,691
I can't.
748
00:43:28,703 --> 00:43:31,194
We were in it together,
but it was his idea.
749
00:43:31,272 --> 00:43:34,366
He was in charge
of the pension plan.
750
00:43:34,442 --> 00:43:36,672
He had me invest
in high-yield bonds.
751
00:43:36,744 --> 00:43:38,712
I phonied
the investment portfolio
752
00:43:38,779 --> 00:43:42,306
so it'd look like the bonds
were returning 5%
when they were returning 8.
753
00:43:42,383 --> 00:43:44,613
We divided the 3% profit.
754
00:43:44,685 --> 00:43:46,312
How much profit?
755
00:43:46,721 --> 00:43:49,189
$600,000.
We split it, 50-50.
756
00:43:49,323 --> 00:43:51,689
That's supposed
to convince me
you're innocent?
757
00:43:51,759 --> 00:43:54,523
Sounds more like
a motive than an alibi,
758
00:43:54,595 --> 00:43:56,426
particularly if you
got tired of dividing.
759
00:43:56,497 --> 00:43:58,829
I didn't kill him!
Believe me, I didn't kill him!
760
00:43:58,899 --> 00:44:00,526
Well, then who did?
761
00:44:00,601 --> 00:44:01,761
I can't tell you.
762
00:44:01,836 --> 00:44:02,825
Oh?
763
00:44:05,473 --> 00:44:07,873
Okay. Okay. Let me out.
764
00:44:08,309 --> 00:44:09,469
Please.
765
00:44:18,085 --> 00:44:20,349
Now, who killed him?
766
00:44:22,156 --> 00:44:23,623
Martin Jordan.
767
00:44:23,691 --> 00:44:25,454
Who's Martin Jordan?
768
00:44:26,193 --> 00:44:27,717
He's connected.
769
00:44:27,995 --> 00:44:29,155
Organized crime?
770
00:44:29,230 --> 00:44:32,165
Yeah. They took over
the union a long time ago.
771
00:44:32,233 --> 00:44:34,724
Lately, they've been
checking up on Metcalf.
772
00:44:34,802 --> 00:44:36,360
He was afraid
something might happen,
773
00:44:36,437 --> 00:44:37,836
but he thought
he had protection.
774
00:44:37,905 --> 00:44:40,601
Oh, the letter he wrote
tying Jordan to the union.
775
00:44:40,675 --> 00:44:43,371
Yeah. That's right,
but it didn't save him.
776
00:44:44,612 --> 00:44:47,274
When I found out
Fred had been killed
777
00:44:47,548 --> 00:44:50,210
I thought maybe
he told them about me,
778
00:44:50,618 --> 00:44:52,552
so I decided to bail out.
779
00:44:52,620 --> 00:44:55,180
All right.
Let's go downtown,
make it official.
780
00:45:00,695 --> 00:45:01,992
Hold it.
781
00:45:02,663 --> 00:45:04,426
I think you better
come with me.
782
00:45:06,367 --> 00:45:07,664
Mr. Jordan.
783
00:45:07,735 --> 00:45:08,827
Now.
784
00:45:24,618 --> 00:45:26,017
Slide across.
785
00:45:26,087 --> 00:45:27,213
Get in there.
786
00:45:28,122 --> 00:45:29,384
Give me the gun.
787
00:46:14,335 --> 00:46:15,427
Okay,
788
00:46:15,836 --> 00:46:17,428
everybody out of the pool.
789
00:46:25,312 --> 00:46:28,440
BETH: You know, Arnold Bailey
shouldn't have talked
till I got to the station.
790
00:46:28,516 --> 00:46:30,245
Didn't anyone bother
to tell him that?
791
00:46:30,317 --> 00:46:32,512
ROCKFORD: Beth,
you couldn't
stop him from talking,
792
00:46:32,586 --> 00:46:35,316
he was trying to get out
from under a murder beef.
793
00:46:35,389 --> 00:46:36,651
You haven't got
anything to worry about,
794
00:46:36,724 --> 00:46:38,385
he's turning
State's evidence.
795
00:46:38,459 --> 00:46:40,256
If he hadn't
been so anxious
to spend his money,
796
00:46:40,327 --> 00:46:42,921
he wouldn't have had
the IRS after him
in the first place.
797
00:46:42,997 --> 00:46:45,329
Well, their collection
technique's a little easier
798
00:46:45,399 --> 00:46:47,299
on the subject
than Jordan's.
799
00:46:47,368 --> 00:46:50,428
Metcalf didn't
spend a dime,
he ended up dead.
800
00:46:51,205 --> 00:46:53,002
They recovered
the whole $300,000?
801
00:46:53,073 --> 00:46:55,007
In Jordan's possession.
802
00:46:55,176 --> 00:46:57,906
Makes a neat package
to take into court.
803
00:46:59,013 --> 00:47:00,037
ROCKY: Hi.
804
00:47:00,281 --> 00:47:02,374
Hi, Rocky.
Oh, hey, Rocky!
805
00:47:02,716 --> 00:47:05,184
Look, I'm really sorry.
I forgot.
806
00:47:05,252 --> 00:47:07,914
I'm not even gonna try
to lie to you about it,
I just plain forgot.
807
00:47:07,988 --> 00:47:09,421
It don't matter.
808
00:47:09,490 --> 00:47:11,651
Well, it does to me.
Let me tell you
what happened.
809
00:47:11,725 --> 00:47:13,556
No, it don't matter.
810
00:47:13,627 --> 00:47:15,618
Well, stop saying that.
811
00:47:15,696 --> 00:47:18,256
Look, I'm the one
knows how I feel.
812
00:47:18,332 --> 00:47:19,765
I got a right to say it.
813
00:47:19,834 --> 00:47:21,597
Or you giving me
orders on that, too?
814
00:47:21,669 --> 00:47:23,000
I never give you orders.
815
00:47:23,070 --> 00:47:24,970
You told me
not to buy that semi.
816
00:47:25,039 --> 00:47:27,701
That wasn't an order.
That was advice.
817
00:47:28,209 --> 00:47:32,077
You know, old Pete Schofield,
he run up to Oxnard
and had a look at it.
818
00:47:32,146 --> 00:47:33,636
I hope
he didn't buy it.
819
00:47:33,714 --> 00:47:36,683
Honey, you know what?
He said he wouldn't have it
820
00:47:36,750 --> 00:47:39,378
if it was under
his Christmas tree
with a red ribbon on it.
821
00:47:39,453 --> 00:47:40,477
He did?
822
00:47:40,554 --> 00:47:42,579
Old Pete, he knows
trucking, you know.
823
00:47:42,890 --> 00:47:44,653
He said this fella
that had it
824
00:47:44,725 --> 00:47:47,489
let it sit outside
till it just turned
plumb into junk.
825
00:47:47,595 --> 00:47:49,085
Ruined, that's
what it was.
826
00:47:49,163 --> 00:47:51,188
No wonder he wanted
to sell it, huh?
827
00:47:51,265 --> 00:47:53,995
It would have been
a waste of valuable time
going up there.
828
00:47:54,068 --> 00:47:56,468
Well, Rocky,
I'm really glad
to hear that.
829
00:47:56,537 --> 00:47:59,665
I admit that I didn't think
it was too good an idea,
830
00:47:59,740 --> 00:48:02,368
but I'm just glad
I'm not the one that
made you lose the deal.
831
00:48:02,443 --> 00:48:04,172
Don't give it
another thought.
832
00:48:04,245 --> 00:48:06,076
Waste of valuable time.
833
00:48:08,315 --> 00:48:09,304
But,
834
00:48:09,884 --> 00:48:12,819
there's this one
I heard about
835
00:48:13,888 --> 00:48:15,788
over in Lancaster.
