BONNIE:
♪ Here you go again
a victim of love

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)

You were terrific.

You were so good.
You're a hit.

You're a definite hit.

Is this me?

I feel so lucky
to be here.

Luck has nothing
to do with it.

Your family would've been
so proud of you.

You're my family, Hooker,

and the applause
belongs to you,

because you're the one
that got me here.

Hey, let's get
one thing straight,

you got yourself here.

Come on, Hooker.

I'd still be mainlining
if it wasn't for you.

Bonnie,
I've put a lot of people
on the drug program.

Not all of them
have been able
to hack it.

You did.

You're clean
and you're
gonna stay clean.

And you did it yourself.
All I did was point you.

And you got Stacy
to take me in,

until I got it
all together.

Hey,
I hope she's gonna
be able to drop by,

before the night's out.

Yeah, she's
on duty right now,

but she and Corrigan
are gonna come by
for the second set.

I'll be watching
for them.

You know, it's funny,
but three days ago,

I couldn't even get a job
at the Pleasure Palace.

The Boulevard,
it's no place for you, kid.

That's where
your trouble started.

Yeah, I know.

Shouldn't you get some rest
for the next set?

Don't tell me,
let me guess.

You've gotta run,
right?

I gotta run.

I never can
get you pinned down.

I'm in training
for the Olympics.

I'll call you tomorrow.

(MUFFLED SCREAMS)

Make a sound,
and it's all over.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

What're you doing?

Where are you taking me?

Now, you keep quiet
and you keep moving.

BONNIE:
I don't wanna go with you.

I don't know you.
Let me go!

MALEK: Just keep moving.

I don't wanna go!

(CAR ENGINE STARTS)

Hooker!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(BULLETS RICOCHETING)

(CAR APPROACHING)

Hold it! Out of the car!

Move!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

What's wrong?

Well, you got her,
didn't you?

Yeah. But the cops
got Hannaman.

Damn!

You give her
the injection?

Now, I help you
get her in the ambulance.

(RADIO CHATTERING
INDISTINCTLY)

What went down, Hooker?

A kidnapping.

I got one of them.
One of 'em got away
with the victim.

Stacy,

the victim was Bonnie McCall.

What?

Bonnie?

Why Bonnie?

I can't say.

Everything went down so fast,

I couldn't get a lock
on what the story was.

I don't know whether
you find trouble

or it finds you, Hooker.

Well, as it says
in the manual,
Lieutenant,

"We're always on duty."

Yeah.

They said
you got a make
on the body.

Earl Hannaman.
I busted him a few years ago.

He works with
a carbon-copy loser,
name of Carl Malek.

He and Malek
have been a team

since they went
to reform school.

I'd bet my pension
it was Malek who got away.

I'll look into it.

And you know the girl
who was kidnapped?

Yeah.

I know her.

She didn't have any money.

There's no family
to ask for ransom.

She just has
a younger sister in Jersey.

She's alone out here.

She was also very pretty.

Maybe the idea was...

Rape?
No, I don't think so.

It isn't in
Hannaman's rap sheet,

nor in Malek's.

Then, why did they grab her?

I'll let you know
when I find out.

Drummer...

Don't forget
to follow up
on Malek.

I told you
I'd look
into it, Hooker,

I'll look
into it.

(RADIO CHATTER CONTINUES)

It's wrong, Hooker.

Bonnie's been through
so much...

And now this?

It isn't over
for Bonnie, Stacy.

We'll see to that.

I told you before, Dobbs,
the timing on these runs
is critical.

The flight plans
I have to file

don't allow
for much leeway.

I'm sorry.
We had trouble
on the way.

Look, I just barely
have enough time

to drop off the girl
and get back before

Operations figures out
I made a detour.

We all take chances,
Peterson,

we're all
getting fat, too.

Another wind-up toy, huh?

She's pretty.

That's what they want,
that's what they get.

(GRUNTING)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

(MUSIC STOPS)

Well, I appreciate
your cooperation.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Come in!

If you think
of anything else
that might help us,

please contact me
at the precinct,

the number
I gave you...

Yes.

Thank you
very much.

How long you been
on that thing?

I've been trying
to get you.

I wanted to know
whether I should pick
you up for work or not.

The answer is yes.

I've been on that thing
for two hours.

I talked to Bonnie's sister
in New Jersey,

the employees, both shifts,
at the club she worked at,

the manager there,

the guy who owns
the apartment building,

anybody I could think of.

Still looking for a reason
why she was taken, huh?

I'm trying to find
if she rubbed anybody
the wrong way.

If she had
a flake of a boyfriend,

a kook on her case,
anything.

But nothing, zip.

There's no reason
for anybody to have
kidnapped her.

I know.
It just doesn't add up.

Doesn't add up
to justice either.

She'd finally
climbed the mountain.

She was standing
in the sunlight.

Maybe we're
overlooking something.

When I couldn't
get through to you,

I called the precinct,
got Corrigan.

He was looking through
Hannaman's effects...

And?

Well, maybe it's nothing,

but he found out
that Hannaman worked at
a club on the Boulevard.

The Pleasure Palace.

"The Pleasure Palace."

When I talked
to Bonnie last night,

she said something about
the Pleasure Palace.

What was it?

That's right,
she looked for a job there
a few days ago.

Maybe that's where
Hannaman spotted her.

The Boulevard...

Four girls disappeared
from there last spring,

the cases
are still open.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Here's your game
of Scrabble, Hooker.

I waited up
for you last night,
so we could play.

But when you
didn't come home,
I played Solitaire.

You played
Solitaire Scrabble?

Yeah that way,
I don't lose points
for spelling.

Just put it anywhere,
sweetheart.

This is my partner,
Vince Romano.

Listen, Hooker,
do you have a pot
I could borrow?

"A pot."
She wants a pot.
Let's see...

Are you new in
the neighborhood?

Yeah, I live next door
with my roommate, Dawn.

Dawn, huh?

What do you girls
do for a living?

They're brain
surgeons, Romano.

Here you go.
Here's your pot.

Thanks, Hooker.

Bye.

What was that?

A pot. She's going
to cook something in it.

Those four girls
that disappeared...

There was a white
slavery angle on it,

but Vice let it drop
because it didn't fit
the usual pattern.

Which is?

Ads appear
in a newspaper,

asking for girls
who can sing and dance

and are willing
to perform overseas.

Then, when
they get there...

They're grabbed,
and that's the last
anyone hears of them.

You got it.

Girls who are grabbed
in Buenos Aires, or Tokyo,
I can't do anything about,

but when
they're taken off
of my streets,

like Bonnie,
that's different.

And I'm damn well
going to put a stop to it.

Hooker,
are you suggesting that

that's what happened
to Bonnie McCall?

White slavery?

What about
the Pleasure Palace?

Detectives check
that out?

Yes, they checked it out,

and the manager,
one Lorraine Daggett,

said, yes,
Hannaman had worked there
as a part-time bartender,

but as for Bonnie McCall,
she'd never heard of her.

That doesn't track
with what Bonnie told me.

She went in there
looking for a job.

She even filled in
an application.

Well, your Bonnie
may have had
a little problem

with the truth, Hooker.

No? Well, you see,
I pulled her file,

and she's been
busted three times.

Twice for possession
and once for soliciting.

That file's old news.

I put her
into a drug program.

She was getting
her act together.
She wouldn't lie.

Somebody's
not telling the truth.

I gave you
a name last night,

Carl Malek,
a known associate
of Hannaman's.

Yeah, well,
you called that one
wrong, too, Hooker.

I ran it down.

Malek is doing time
in Florida.

Drummer's crowing.

The computer has Malek
in prison in Florida.

You buy that?

I still think
it was Malek
in the car with Bonnie.

If you're right,
Malek might've been seen
at the Pleasure Palace,

where his buddy
Hannaman worked.

But how
do we find out?

They don't exactly
open up to cops
in joints like that.

What about one of us
going in there
undercover?

No, Drummer would
never go for it.

Well, let's
hit the street

and see
if we can pick up
a lead out there.

I know that look.

Don't do it, Stacy.

Don't go in there
on your own.

I'll do
whatever it takes
to find Bonnie.

You know, Hooker,
I'm a little worried
about Stacy.

She's still
pretty shook up
about Bonnie.

Yeah.

Well, things really
got tough for Bonnie

in the early stages
of her drug rehab,

she and Stacy
were like sisters.

Bonnie said it herself,

if it wasn't for Stacy,
she'd never have made it.

She's not gonna feel better
until we find Bonnie.

When we do,

I hope it's
not too late.

All right, now
when you fill out
this application,

don't leave any
of the questions
blank, okay?

You can fill it out
over there.

Hi.

I'm Stacy.

I'm Shirley.

I guess you're applying
for a job too.

One look and I can see
you don't belong here
any more than I do.

Times are tough.

I want you
to understand,
Dobbs,

I didn't fly up here
just to see you.

I'm making
other contacts.

You didn't like the girl
I sent you last night?

On the contrary,
she was beautiful.

But she was
the first girl you've
sent me in months,

and that won't do.

See, I have customers
all over the world,

and I need
a steady supply
of girls.

I can get what you want,
and when you want it.

I hope you're right,

for your sake.

Just understand, Dobbs,

if the girls don't
arrive as ordered,

I shall go elsewhere.

And then you
and I are finished.

Hasta luego, amigo.

(SIGHS)

Troubles?

Good luck.

Not from what I see.

What I see
is prime stuff,

ready to be packaged
and shipped.

I heard what
you did yesterday.

Look, I know
how you feel
about Bonnie,

but going to
the Pleasure Palace
was just too risky.

Risky and thoughtless.

We were worried
about you.

(SARCASTICALLY)
Thanks, tight lips.

Okay, Hooker,
I read you,

and I know
you're right.

But as dumb as it was,
something did happen.

Like what?

The manager
offered me a job.

I start tonight.

You've gotta be crazy.

HOOKER: Well,
wait a minute,

it just might be
our only way to go.

Hooker,
I know Stacy's good,

but she's not ready
for something
like this.

She could be,
if we get it right.

You mean,
put a wire on her?

And stay
glued to her.

Now you're talking.

There's just
one hitch.

We have to trade
apartments.

"Trade apartments"?

Well,
when I filled out
the application,

I couldn't put down
my phone number and address.

Everyone in the building
knows I'm a police officer.

So, you gave them my place?

Well, sure.

No one's
there permanently
except for you,

and I figured
the motel manager
can play along with us.

Stacy, I've got
to hand it to you,
you have got guts.

What's the big deal?

I've done
undercover work before.

I mean about staying
in Hooker's crummy pad.

That has got to be
the supreme sacrifice.

Of course,

there is Claudia
and Dawn...

Claudia and Dawn.

Never mind.

You're too young
to hear what
he's thinking.

I'll run this
undercover thing
by Drummer.

He won't approve of it,
but maybe he'll look
the other way.

What makes you
think so?

I've got him
over a barrel.

The lab lifted
a partial palm print

from the dash
of Bonnie's car.

It belongs to Malek.

We ready to roll?

Just about. Stacy's
getting dressed.

It took us a while
to get the equipment
from the precinct.

Hooker,
what happened
with Drummer,

when you told him
we had definite proof
that Malek was in town?

(CHUCKLES)
He didn't want
to buy it.

Even with
a palm print
he hung tight,

till I put a call in
to the prison
in Florida.

It must've
been beautiful.

How did
the computer
blow it?

Ah, the computer's
only as good as what
you pump into it,

and nobody bothered
to tell it that Malek

had been transferred
to a medical facility.

And then somebody else
dropped the ball,

and he was transferred
from there.

Let's double-check
the transmission.

Make sure
it's working.

Stacy, we're
running a test,
say something.

STACY: (OVER MICROPHONE)
One, two, three, testing.

Oh, Hooker,
the window in here,

if you want to open it,
you have to jiggle the latch.

And about the plants...

Make sure
they all get enough water,

and don't forget
to talk to them
at least once a day.

They like that.

I always get tongue-tied
when I talk to
a philodendron.

Oh, one other thing,

there's a big guy
with blond hair.

Let him in.

He's using my shower
till his gets fixed.

George?

George is using
her shower?

What's taking her so long?

Her costume's only this big.

Yeah?

(MOUTHING)

Ta-da!

Anything you want me
to do at your place,
Hooker?

You don't have
to water dirt.

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)

All right!

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Hey, sweetheart,
come here,
we need a refill.

Coming right up.

I got a look at the files.

Bonnie's application
wasn't in there.

We know
she made one out.

So did the girl
I met here yesterday,

hers wasn't
there either.

I don't like
the sound of that.

Neither do I.

Wait, wait, wait, wait...

What do you mean
I can't have Stacy?

Dobbs, we agreed.

We'd never take a girl
who worked here.

We can't have
any trails leading
back to this place.

To us.

Look, I could get
a lot of bucks for her,
she's special.

Look, I've got a sweet
arrangement here.

The pay's steady,
the owner's out of state,
and I've got a free hand.

And for you,
this is the ideal setup
that's bringing talent,

as long as we keep
playing it safe.

Yeah, we've got
to make an exception.
I've got to deliver.

Now, give me
Stacy's application.

I'm gonna check her out.

(CAR ENGINE STARTS)

Another strikeout.

Nobody seems
to have seen Malek.

It's a big city.
A lot of people
to talk to.

There's somebody
who might help us.

Hey, Richie.

RICHIE:
Get your hands off me,
man. It's all right.

I didn't do nothing.

'Cause you look
like my old lady.

(ALL LAUGHING)

You've got
a real smart mouth,
wise guy.

And you got
a real ugly partner,

but I ain't gonna
hold it against you.

(ALL LAUGHING)

Let's see
how funny you are
without an audience.

RICHIE: Hey, man!
Don't be beatin'
on me, man!

Don't go beatin'
on me, man.
I got a lawyer.

Hey, take it easy,
Hooker.

Let's not get
carried away, pal.

HOOKER: What's with
that old lady line, pal?

Detective Richard Pace,
my partner, Vince Romano.

Administrative Vice.

VINCE:
Nice to meet you.

I heard, Hooker,
you're looking
for Carl Malek,

in connection with
the Bonnie McCall grab.

Yeah.

There's nothing
out in the street,

not word one on Malek.

What're you going for?

With a different MO.

It may be a tie-in
with the four ladies

who disappeared
a while ago.

I'll dig in,
see what I can find.

Dig fast, Richie.

I don't want
Bonnie to end up
a case on the shelf,

like the other four.

Got you.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Who is it?

DOBBS: Virgil Dobbs
from the Pleasure Palace.

I want to talk to you
about your application.

I don't understand,
I'm already
on the job.

If you want
to stay on the job,

I'd open the door
and talk to me.

You know, sweetie,
it's our policy

to verify
the backgrounds
of our employees.

All this stuff yours?

Uh, yeah.
I'm a collector.

I never
throw anything out.

I caught your number
last night.

You've danced before,
haven't you?

From Miami to here.
Like the song says,
I was born free.

Yeah, I noticed
you're from Florida.

That's where I hail from.

Oh, really?
Whereabouts?

Oh, you wouldn't
know it.

It's a little town
outside the Everglades,

Cayville.

You know, for somebody
who was born free,

you've got an awful lot
of stuff here.

Uh, look, Mr. Dobbs,
I have a problem.

A guy who hit on me
at the club is on
his way over,

and if you're here
when he comes,
I blow 100 bucks.

You dig?

Okay, I'll talk to you
later about this,
up at the club.

(POLICE RADIO BEEPING)

DISPATCH: (OVER RADIO)
Four-Adam-Thirty,

Detective Richie Pace
reports a Carl Malek

located living at
845 West, 5th Street.

Four-Adam-Thirty,
that's a roger.

All right, Richie.

I knew you'd
come through for us.

Malek's taste in cars
is usually fast
and stolen.

I'll check with the manager,

you start running these
license plate numbers.

Start with
that Corvette.

Hold it, Malek!

Come on, cut him off!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(SIRENS WAILING)

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Romano!

Throw a couple of rounds
into the dumpster!

Hey! Hold it!
Hold it!

Put your
gun down.

(GUN CLATTERS)

Assume the position.

Where's Bonnie McCall?

I've never heard of her.

Well, you're gonna
hear of her, dirtbag,

for the rest
of the day.

Read him his rights.

You have the right
to remain silent.

If you give up
the right to remain silent,

anything you say
can and will be

used against you
in a court of law.

(OFFICERS SHOUTING)

DRUMMER:
You resisted arrest,
you ran,

and you took shots
at officers of the law.

Hey, man,
I just spent
three lousy years

at the
Florida State Prison.

That's why I boogied.

That's not why.

You ran because of
what you did to
Bonnie McCall, Malek.

I told you,
I never heard of her.

Well, that's funny.

'Cause somehow,
your prints appeared
in her car.

You're kidding.

Now, wait a minute.

Bonnie, yeah,
that was her name.

I picked her up,
like, a week ago
in some joint.

Now, that was
a one-night stand,
I forgot all about that.

The only one-night stand
you had with Bonnie McCall

was when you snatched her
from Misty's

and put her
out of circulation.

You calling me a killer?

I'm calling you
a white slaver.

You shipped Bonnie
out of the country.

You've been smoking
swamp weed, Hooker.

HOOKER:
But you didn't
do it alone,

because you haven't
got the brains,

you haven't got
the connections.

Who's the honcho?

You give him to us,
help us get Bonnie back,

it'll go a lot
easier on you.

That swamp weed's
really getting to you.

You see, I've seen it
with a lot of guys
back home in Pahokee.

As soon as
your head clears,

then you're gonna know
that I didn't grab Bonnie,
or anybody else.

Malek.

You had your chance,
you should've taken it,

because now
I'm going to bury you

and whoever's
in this with you.

DRUMMER: Now,
just a minute, Hooker.

I'm not finished
with this suspect.

I am.

You wasted
your breath on him.

That's what he thinks.

You found something out?

Let's see where
we are with it.

Did you hear back on
our inquiry to Cayville?

According to
the local police,

Virgil Dobbs
was born there
all right,

but he's been gone
a long time.

I also heard back
from NCIC, and they
got nothing on him.

Southern Florida...

When I was
in the Marine Corps,

I spent one long,
hot summer down there
at Homestead.

The Air Force base?

They sent us there
for paratroop training.
Here we are...

Cayville,
where Virgil Dobbs grew up,

and look what's
three miles upstream.

"Pahokee"?
What's "Pahokee"?

Where Malek comes from.

That's too much
of a coincidence
for me.

Call up the files
on the four girls that
were missing this spring.

If I remember right,
in two of those cases

Vice came up
with the same prints,
never identified.

Yeah, but they
couldn't be Malek's,

I mean, he was
in prison last spring.

Virgil Dobbs wasn't.

No, same location.

Oh, and by the way,
can I have that driver
I use?

Dobbs, yeah,
that's it.

Right, thank you, sir.

You're going ahead
with Stacy?

I have to.

What about Malek
and the cops?

Don't worry about him.
He'll keep his mouth shut.

He's a good ol' boy.

Is that for Dobbs?

Yeah.
His fourth tonight.

Well, let me
take it to him.

I want to make
some points with him.

Good luck.

She's making
her move, Hooker.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

I hope I didn't
keep you waiting,
Mr. Dobbs.

Some things
are worth waiting for.

Let me know
when you need
a refill.

Ah, this will
be all right
for this evening.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Dobbs' prints
are on the glass
in the office.

I think he's about
to leave.

Hold on a second.
Corrigan, this is
for you.

When Dobbs leaves,
you move in,

and we'll do our thing.

♪ Let's dance in the dark

♪ I'll be your man,
I'll be your shining star

♪ Come take my hand,
let's dance in the dark

♪ I lose myself inside you,
when I look in your eyes

♪ My temperature is rising
and it feels so nice

♪ I can never get enough
of your tender touch

♪ And when I see you move
I just want it so much

♪ I want you now,
tomorrow's too late

♪ Don't make me wait

♪ Come take my hand,
let's dance in the dark

♪ I'll be your man,
I'll be your shining star ♪

Hey!

(GLASSES SHATTERING)

(GRUNTS)

LORRAINE: Oh, come on, fellas,
let's not break the place up!

Come on, fellas.
Come on, fellas.

Let's be pragmatic.

Come on, fellas.
Come on, fellas.

(TABLES CLATTERING)

LORRAINE: All right, guys.
That's enough now.

Let's play nice,
guys. Okay?

VINCE:
All right, all right.

All right.

Next time, watch it.

VINCE:
Give me a beer.

Hong came through.

Dobbs' latents
taken off the glass

match those of
the previously unidentified
prints from the other cases.

You were right,
Hooker,

Dobbs is our man.

We have him linked
to the disappearance
of three of the girls,

I guarantee
he connects
to all five.

Stacy should be leaving
for the Pleasure Palace
about now.

I don't want
her going there.

(PHONE RINGING)

(RINGING CONTINUES)

(STACY YELLS)

(POLICE SIRENS WAILING)

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Corrigan,
you stay here,

in case Dobbs
or Stacy turn up.

Where's Stacy?

You two, cops?

Where's Stacy?

I don't know.
She didn't show.

HOOKER: You're in
big trouble, lady.

Stacy's a policewoman.

I haven't done anything.

HOOKER: Yes, you have.

You and Dobbs are running
a white slavery ring.

You're crazy.

Your other associate,
Malek, finally buckled.

He gave us the whole scam.

Bonnie McCall,

the four girls who
disappeared last spring,
now Stacy.

If you don't
start talking fast,

you'll pay as big a price
as Dobbs and Malek.

(SIGHS)

Dobbs set up
the whole thing.

All I did was
point out prospects.

Get Corrigan in here.

Where did Dobbs
take Stacy?

He works at Sun Ambulance.

It's not far
from here, uh...

On Taylor, near Bradman.

HOOKER:
Take her in, book her.

You and I'll hit
Sun Ambulance.

You'd better pray
my partner's okay, lady.

(HANDCUFFS CLICKING)

(GROANING)

Oh, no, no,
no, no, shh.

Don't fight
the drug, baby.

By the time you wake up,
you'll be in Mexico.

And from there,
who knows what garden spot
you'll be off to.

Yeah, you're
a special one, angel.

I'm almost
gonna miss you.

(ENGINE STARTING)

(SIRENS WAILING)

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Where's Virgil Dobbs?

On a call.

Transporting a patient to
a Pacific Medical Airlift
at Baker Field.

Should be there
any minute.

You want me to try
and reach him?

No, give me
the phone number.

(SIRENS WAILING)

We got clearance?

(PHONE RINGING)

Pacific Med-Air.

HOOKER: (OVER PHONE)
This is the police.
Sergeant Hooker speaking.

Has the Sun Ambulance
arrived yet?

Uh...

No, not yet, sir.

All right.
This is an emergency.
Listen carefully.

That plane is not to take off.

When the ambulance arrives,

tell the driver nothing.

Load the patient and stall.

We're on our way.

Okay, Sergeant.

There's been
a change in plans.
I'm going with you.

It's your party.

(SIRENS WAILING)

(SIRENS WAILING)

There's the entrance.

No sign of our backup.

Dispatch said two units
would meet us there.

Can't wait.

HOOKER:
That's the plane we want,

and I told him
not to let it take off.

Ever played tag
with a jet?

No, but we're
playing chicken.

We could end up
a hood ornament
on that thing.

(PLANE ENGINES POWERING DOWN)

(GUN COCKING)

Keep going.

(PLANE ENGINES REVVING)

I've got 5,000 pounds
of fuel in this baby.

I'm not frying
my carcass for you.

Unless you think
you can fly it.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(GUN FIRING)

Dobbs, hold it!

Freeze!

DOBBS: I'm hurt.

You'd better hope
we get five young
women back,

or you're just
beginning to hurt.

STACY: Oh, baby...

I know
you've been lonely,
but I'm back now.

Hooker, look
what you did.

You were supposed
to talk to Stacy's
plants.

I did, honest.

Philodendrons
don't like cop stories.

(ALL CHUCKLING)

What's the word from
the State Department?

Good news.
They found Bonnie
in Mexico.

Is she okay?

Physically, yes.
Emotionally, she's gonna
need a little help.

I don't think
you have to ask
for volunteers.

The name I squeezed
out of Dobbs,

his Mexican connection,
Mendez?

The State Department got
the federales down there
to jump all over him.

He talked?

He spilled
his list of customers,
and Interpol's moving in.

What about
the other girls?
Any hope of finding them?

Keep your fingers crossed.

Oh, I'll get it.

BOTH: No, you get it.

(ARGUING INDISTINCTLY)

Aren't we polite.

Meanwhile, there's a guy
out there with our pizza,
and it's getting ice-cold.

Hi, George.

I don't believe it.

I don't believe
you've been letting
this guy come in

and disrupt your life,
Hooker, use your shower.

Ah, it's not so bad.

In an hour,
his girlfriend comes through,
and she looks like Claudia.
