Original subtitles

Well, we're a little busy right now.

Holly, if they knew where you live, they'd have come there to kill you.

You know, drive a little slower, I might be able to hit something.

Yeah? Well, if you hit something, maybe I might be able to drive a little

slower.

Actually, that's not a bad idea. Hang on.

What?

And the driver shoots for the radiator bigger and closer.

Right.

We're going to take care of these bastards once and for all.

Well, so much for the first three miles.

Only 250 to go.

Holly, you want to calm down? We're all in one piece.

That's a hell of a lot more than I can pay for the cuda.

Look at all the damn bullet holes in that thing.

It's going to be a bureaucratic nightmare getting this thing fixed. I'll

driving around like this for six months.

Oh, well, the roof leaked when it rained anyway.

So, lady, what did you do that everybody wants to kill you so bad?

It's all right, you can tell him. He's been my partner longer than I care to

remember.

What do you know already?

All I know is, Nancy, we're going to take this nice trip up the coast and

up a protected witness.

And you'd only come in if he transported you personally.

So then we're going to drop you in Superior Court in San Francisco.

See, the hired gilders part, that wasn't part of the story.

Well, what do you think? I made a reservation to meet with him out here?

Three years ago, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and I saw a

gangster named Joey Silverman kill a man.

Turns out the deal was a money laundering operation run by Ray Getz.

What did he get? The outfit guy? All he used to be is secretary.

So why didn't you testify against him? I only worked for his legitimate

business. I was part of his front.

Ah, great.

She couldn't nail guests, but Tillman's doing plenty to life in trying to...

Well, that's it. That's all she wrote.

I've got to take a leak anyway.

Oh, yes.

Very nice.

Got a bullet hole in the radiator.

Can you fix it? Sure. Got any bubble gum or airplane glue?

Try the cell phone again, dope.

I'm not old, ma 'am.

So how long do you think it'll be before a tow truck comes along here at random?

I'm going to move that process along by doing something I haven't done in a

while. Hello.

How's your legs, Holly?

Our friend's dead.

He's riding a yellow Barracuda heading west. Great.

Giddy up.

So what's that, 23?

30.

But who's counting?

I don't get it, man. I never had trouble getting a ride, even when I was a kid.

I mean, even when I looked like Latino Charles Manson, no problem.

When was the last time you picked up a hitchhiker, Bubba? Not that long ago.

And I think the...

Ford was still in the White House.

It wasn't Nixon. Who's the guy who used to hit people with golf balls?

That was Ford. Oh, yeah, that guy. I never waited more than three cars. How

you think I feel?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, wait a minute.

Hi there. Hi, hi, hi. Listen, SFPD, can you give us a lift into town?

Somebody will have to ride in the back.

We'll flip court.

Wait, hold on, Magic Boy. You're not flipping the coin.

Hollywood.

All right.

I don't believe them.

If you folks don't mind, you call it.

That's it.

Let's let him move. Get out of here.

You lost. Fair and square. Get in.

That's Mrs. Mueller.

Oh, yeah.

So you don't got a seatbelt for me? I mean, you got a seatbelt, you're dead.

Speaking of dead, check your lividity.

I'd take the time of death between 2 and 4 a .m. What do you think?

Yeah, yeah, sounds right to me.

Range of motion in the joints, that's how I tell. You guys in San Francisco PD

probably got your own tricks, I'm sure.

Or do you rely strictly on the rectal thermometer?

Yeah, Joe does.

Oh, I got an extra.

Tuna sand?

Heavy mayo, if anybody wants it. Not for me.

I'm good, thanks.

Joe? No, thanks.

It's fine.

I made it myself.

Chloe? Chloe?

We're there.

Jake, hi.

You're just in time. Would you help me with this? Sure, Lisa.

I want to get closer to the fireplace. Here, let me.

That's good. That's great.

Thank you.

Jake. Hey.

Hey, what are you doing here?

Well... Guys, please, be careful. That's antique china.

Sorry, lady. What's marked red?

So, this is the new place.

Yeah. Cool.

Um, you want to come see my room?

Did you hear about Matt Pierce?

No. He got knocked out in basketball.

Oh, wow. Is he okay?

He's got a concussion.

He's going to miss the dance tomorrow night. Oh, no.

That means Sarah Comer doesn't have a date.

It's kind of what I came to talk to you about.

You know, I did ask her before you.

No, I didn't know that.

And Matt's down.

want to go with Sharon.

If you're not cool with it, I'll... Oh, no, Jake, Jake. I'm totally cool.

Really? Oh, yeah. I understand.

Okay.

Okay. I'll see you there. Okay. See you there.

He's so cute.

He's a jerk.

Well, it's a damn miracle there isn't more damage than there is.

I'm getting kind of hungry next, ma 'am.

Well, let's see how long this deal's gonna be and maybe we can get a bite to

eat.

So, uh, what's the time frame on this thing, Bubba?

You, uh, need a new, uh, radiator.

Calvin, bring me the, uh, the, the, whatchamacallit? All right.

Here you go. You know, you're in luck because the, uh, buddy of mine over in,

uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,

uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,

uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,

uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,

Well, that's great. How long is that going to take?

Well, assuming they got a radiator,

I should be able to have her for you by, let's see,

how's tomorrow morning?

Nine o 'clock?

Unbelievable. Oh, and listen, if you can get a couple of windshields, we could

go for those, too.

Oh, you know...

We got a heck of a bed and breakfast here in town if you're

looking for a place to, you know, stay.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you saying we're spending the night here?

I'm not. He is.

Nash. Hi, Dad.

Hi, sweetheart.

What's the matter?

Um, I'm not going to need the cooter. You don't have to get it for me. I'm not

going to go to the dance. Why? What happened?

Well, Jake is taking death to Sharon Schumer.

I thought he already asked you.

Well, he went and unasked me.

Well, go with someone else.

There's nobody.

I can't believe you can't get a date.

Hey, uh, maybe JJ's available.

What'd he say?

Uh, nothing. Uh, Joe's trying to fix you up with JJ.

JJ? Never mind, sweetheart. Listen, I'm out of town right now, and I'm on this

case, and everything's gone crazy. So, uh, let me call you later, all right?

Yeah, okay.

Bye, Daddy.

Bye.

Hey, I wasn't trying to set her up.

Excuse me, did you not just say to me that J .J. was available?

Yeah, well, what are you saying, that J .J.'s not good enough for your daughter?

Get out of here, Joe.

Well, that's what it sounded like to me. If J .J. and Cassidy want to hook up,

they'll hook up.

Yeah, exactly.

Exactly. Oh, you must be so proud.

I know, that's big call stuff.

We gotta go.

Okay. I love you, too. Bye -bye. Come on. We're going to go find a bed and

breakfast.

Room 19.

That's all we have.

Up the stairs, the second to the last door on your right.

There are only two beds.

Will make do. Thank you very much.

Something sure smells good down there. We had pot roast for dinner.

What time did you stop serving?

We stopped a half hour ago.

Well, maybe I'll just ask the cook to make us up some sandwiches or something.

I'm sorry. The kitchen is off -limits to our guests.

If we made an exception for you, we'd have to make an exception for everybody.

Go in there.

I have to cut your little fingers off.

We do, however, serve a full breakfast at seven in the morning.

Oh, well, thanks anyway.

Hey,

how you doing?

Nice car.

Yep. I'm a muscle car collecting myself.

Who owns it?

Ah,

what's that?

This isn't bad.

It's actually kind of cute.

Yeah, not bad at all.

Oh, man, I'm going to hit the sack on feet.

Good idea.

Shall we have Holly do the honors again?

Oh, come on, man. I got a bad back. I'm thinking of you. I'm thinking maybe the

floor's better for your back. Yeah, right.

Call it hidden.

I don't care what Brunhilde says, man. I'm going to go see what's in the

Good idea.

Think 20 bucks ought to cover anything I find?

Sure.

This whole trip has been very revealing, Nash Bridges. Good. Write it to me in a

memo.

You better try and get some sleep.

They told me I'd never have to testify again.

Ever. What can I tell you? They reneged.

Well, they have a witness to testify against Goetz. Why do I have to

corroborate? Come on, Holly.

You know the system well enough by now.

My life, all my plans, did not include the Witness Protection Program.

Police! Get back inside!

Yo!

Yo, you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Shut up! Do you have a sheriff in this town?

Yes. Call him.

Molly, you all right?

I fixed what I could.

Mechanically, she's, uh, sound.

Here's your case.

Thanks, Bubba.

Is that enough food to take us back to San Francisco?

All major food news represented.

Coffee, beer or not?

Pickled okra, microwave burritos, at least we don't forget fruits, and orange

soda.

A veritable feast, Holly.

Well, the best I can do. Uh, what's the plan?

We hunt back to the city as fast as possible.

That's it? That's the plan? That's part of it.

All right, I'll buy it. What's the other part? Well, the other part's a little

more complicated.

I'm gonna bet that we haven't seen the last of our boys from last night.

They know they got us on the run.

They know we're gonna take the most direct route to the fifth.

I guess.

Probably parked up the road somewhere, ready to take us out.

So what do we do? Take the puller out?

Yeah, and call in the cavalry.

Call them in. I'm not proud.

Want to hold this for you? No, you go ahead, Judge.

See you at the lunch.

ADA Bridges.

Stacey!

What's wrong? Why aren't you here? Well, I'm fine, Stacey. And how are you? I

know you, Nash, but you're not fine. Or you'd be here instead of calling to tell

me why you're not.

Stacey, you know that old crane trestle near the Point Bonita Battery?

Where Nick used to take us fishing?

Yeah.

Why don't you call the U .S. Marshal's office and have them meet us there in

about two hours.

Tell them I'm going to need at least three cars and I want a convoy in.

What's going on?

Somebody's got real loose lips, sister.

Guess it's got bad guys all over them. Are you suggesting the leak came from my

office? Well, either your office or the U .S. Attorney's office on this case.

Because the only two people that knew about it on my end are right here in

car. Okay. I'll put a lid on it.

But, Nat, if you don't deliver Holly here by 9 o 'clock tomorrow morning, I'm

going to lose Gat.

Ah, don't get your shorts in the notch. He'll be there.

Counselor.

Counselor, counselor, how are you?

Listen, we're actually about to go and have a little bite to eat. Would you

to join us?

Oh, gosh.

Assistant District Attorney Mr. Gat's prosecuting you for murder. This

conversation's ex parte.

Then you better be ready to rock and roll, lady.

This ain't gonna be no slow dance.

Are you threatening me, Mr. Cass?

Well, if your heart's racing right now, I guess I am.

If not, I'm not.

Question nine.

Yes, sir.

Question for you, Mr. Quaid.

Should I liquefy my assets right now and book a plane reservation, or can I

enjoy lunch with a nice bottle of wine?

Well, how long will it take you to get to the restaurant?

Fifteen minutes.

Well, I would take the long way.

The wine will taste better with the anticipation.

Good.

Still got them.

Dead end.

My point is, there's only one homecoming queen and one captain of the football

team, and it's not always going to be you.

Mom! Hey, I know. Why don't you call Trent?

Because he's going with Lisa Koontz. Oh, there must be someone you can call.

Mom, the dance is tonight. It's utterly embarrassing to call someone today. And

besides, everyone I know who's like halfway human already has a date.

Well, I could go with you. No way.

I'm so sure, Mom.

JJ! Cassidy?

Hey, that was amazing.

Where'd you learn that?

How do you know?

College.

So I haven't seen you much since you've been back.

Yeah, I've been pretty busy.

School didn't work out, huh?

No, it was great. I just kind of fell into a rut, you know?

Information overload.

So, um, what are you doing tonight?

You mean... You want to go out?

With you?

Sure, yeah.

Yeah. Cool.

So when are the marshals getting here?

In about an hour.

So what are we going to do with Holly once we get her back into the city?

Wrap her in Kevlar, sit on her and...

Wait for her until she testifies and then get her home.

Thanks.

So, uh, you gonna let Cassidy drive the Cuda?

Yes, I was.

Yeah, but I never get to drive the car. Well, it all kind of fits together,

doesn't it?

What does?

You know, you, your car, your whole attitude towards the Dominguez clan.

What are you getting mad about?

Well, you hurt my feelings, all right?

I mean, you may not realize it, but J .J. is actually a very decent,

young man.

You know, he just got played a trick on me and put him in a slacker's body.

Joe. Hey, man, looks are very deceiving, you know? I mean, check it out. If

Ingrid thighs me up just on looks alone, would she have married me?

All right, look.

I'm going to be honest with you.

You know I love J .J. I've always loved that kid.

Cassidy. Cassidy, she's tough, man.

She'll eat JJ up and spit him out.

I'm not going to do that to him.

Or to you.

I'm serious, man.

I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings.

I didn't mean to. You know that.

I'm going to take this to Holly.

Holly?

How you holding up?

I'm okay.

You ever hear from Doug?

No.

Did you ever try to contact him? No, not since we broke up.

I've been a good girl.

I haven't violated any of the conditions of my relocation.

My life was the train wreck, not his.

He would have resented it eventually.

It's better this way.

You really believe that?

I figure if I say it to myself often enough, eventually I will.

Those guys are very good.

See how good.

That is high -tech piece of garbage.

Come on, come on.

Check the batteries.

The batteries are fine.

Wait a second, there it goes.

They're moving out. They're on the move.

Where are they?

Right there, right in front of us.

Where? There, make a right.

Right, right, right, right, right.

In there.

This is it.

They stopped.

This

ain't

right. They're not here.

Real slow. Real slow.

What we got here, Bubba?

I don't know. Let's see.

Hey, Nashman.

United States Marshals.

Well, I guess we found our leak, didn't we?

Gentlemen, I called my sister.

She's an assistant district attorney.

And she's sending out some real, true -to -life, honest -to -goodness U .S.

Marshals who I think are really going to be happy to see you gentlemen.

Oh, enjoy the view, and let's hope the fog doesn't roll in.

It's kind of getting hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys.

Tell me about it.

Can't wait to see who else gets what's got on his payroll.

So what are we doing now?

On silent run deep, Bubba. The only way I know to keep Polly safe is to make

sure that nobody knows where we are until she steps foot on the stand.

Go.

I'm sorry.

My one suit's in Santa Cruz. Hey, it's okay. No problem. We'll find something

try this on.

Okay, look. The kids in my school, they're going to ask a lot of questions.

mean, they're going to be brutal. We'll give them an interrogation.

So we're going to have to figure out what you're going to say first.

Well, I'm kind of in between jobs right now. Oh, that's what I mean.

Okay, how about this?

You're still in school.

You're pre -med.

Yeah, but I went to Santa Cruz.

Yeah, I know that, but they don't.

Greg Hutchinson, U .S. Marshal.

How are you two losers today?

Crane, we're going to need to put out a statewide APB on Nash Bridges and Joe

Dominguez. They're now wanted for the murder of a federal agent.

I don't understand.

What agent?

Very funny.

Yeah, Quinn, I could see how you'd lose your sense of humor.

Got a big lead on it.

Come on.

Let's go.

San Francisco.

Damn, it's good to be home, isn't it, Bubba?

Yeah, but next time you ask me to go for a ride in the country, forget it.

What do you mean? You didn't like the fresh air? I love the fresh air. It was

the bullets flying through the fresh air I didn't dig.

JJ, can you get that?

Yeah.

Hello, Bridges Residence.

Hello, who's this?

J .J. Dominguez, who's this?

Uh, J .J., this is Nat.

What's J .J. doing there?

Uh, J .J., uh, can I talk to Lisa?

Uh, no, not right now.

Okay, uh, well, can I talk to Cassidy?

What's your dad?

Hi, Daddy.

Hi, sweetheart. What's going on?

J .J.'s taking me to the dance.

What'd you say?

J .J.'s taking her to the dance. Really?

Yeah. You know what, Daddy? I never noticed this before, but J .J.'s kind of

cute. What's he say?

JJ's cute.

Whoa.

Who's JJ?

JJ's my son. Oh. So, listen, sweetheart, we're back in the city, but we got

something working on this case.

And I'm sorry, but I'm not going to be able to let you use the car. Oh, that's

okay. The car doesn't matter, Daddy.

Oh, good. Well, listen, if anything changes, I'll let you know.

I'll see you when I can.

Okay. Bye -bye.

JJ?

So, your kids are an item?

They've known each other since they were kids.

Yeah, it's more or less a, what do they call that one that's not really a... A

platonic thing. Yeah, yeah, a platonic thing. And platonic foot.

Yeah, but very good.

What's up?

Bubba called me paranoid, but I think we're being followed.

Why are they following us?

I'm not radioing them.

Nope. I've got a squad car behind us, and I believe I see one right up there

ahead of us, too.

Maybe they're recording us.

I didn't call it in, Bubba. Did you call it in?

No, I didn't call it in. Yeah, well, somebody did, and I don't think they're

our side.

Holly, hang on.

We're not going to the police station.

Hi, honey. How are you?

Good, how are you?

JJ. Hey, son, where are your pants?

Hey, Dad.

Yeah, where are your pants?

I have his pants right here. I'm fitting them for him. Hey, what are you guys

doing here?

Checking up on us. Oh, we're not checking up on you.

Lisa? Yeah. This is Holly.

Hi, honey. Holly, this is Lisa, Cassidy, and the guy with no pants is JJ.

JJ is my son.

Oh. And this place is cool. It is?

You like it? Yeah, I like it. I like it, too.

The window's a little crooked, though. Maybe you can get a discount or

something. Yeah, thanks.

No, it's neat, isn't it?

You know what?

We need to check the rides.

Uh, let's not check the rides.

Daddy, stay out of this.

You know, I just don't think they're right. You have to take them off again.

Doesn't he have his own clothes?

Hey, Daddy, stay out of this.

Whatever happened to Jake Messina?

I can hear you.

Who's Jake Messina?

Why are you here?

Um, Holly is a protected witness.

We need a place to lie low until we can get her into court. Oh, yeah. Let me

guess. Let me guess. You just moved in. Nobody knows you live here. It'll be

perfectly safe, and it's only for one night. So what's your beef?

Oh.

Didn't J .J. look cute in his suit?

Of course he's cute. I made him myself.

What? Joe's going to stay here with Holly, and I need to borrow your car for

about an hour.

Am I going to get it back with bullet holes?

With any luck.

Well, the keys are on the fireplace. You want some coffee before you go? Sure.

If I can find the grinder here.

Yeah, I'll help you look.

I need you to do something for me, Nash.

Okay.

I want to see Doug.

You can set it up for me. I know you can.

Maybe after you testify.

Before.

No.

It's too dangerous.

Fine.

Then I don't testify.

Please.

You're willing to risk everything to see your old boyfriend?

Excuse me, Mr. Gates.

She dead?

We, uh, lost her.

You guys are the U .S. Marshals, and you can't find the witness.

We know she's in the city.

I know she's in the city, you moron! I know she's in the city!

I'll tell you something else.

She'll be in court tomorrow.

The day after that, I'm gonna be in jail.

Unless you find her.

We'll find her.

You'll find nothing.

You're fired. We'll finish the job.

You don't seem to understand, Mr. Quinn. I've moved on. I've got other people on

it. Okay?

Then I want my pay.

Penny.

Pay him.

What was your name?

Burke Burke looks like you're in charge

Hey, Stace. How you doing?

Do you have any idea how much trouble you're in?

Yeah, I got an idea.

What happened?

The Marshal Service found one dead body at Point Bonita and no live one.

The body was a real U .S. Marshal.

And they put a warrant out on you and Joe.

Where's Holly?

She's safe.

Okay, here's the drill.

I'm going to have Holly in that courtroom tomorrow morning at 9 a .m.

You go tell the judge in person.

Don't use the phone. Don't tell anyone else in your office. Don't even dream

about it in your sleep tonight. You got it?

Anything else?

No.

Except... Holly wants to see her old boyfriend.

He works at the Bay Aeronautics Space Museum.

So we're going to stop by there on our way to court. Is that necessary?

Stacy, she has come back here against her will to testify, risked her life,

all she asks in return is to see her boyfriend for ten minutes. Yeah, I think

it's necessary.

You're right.

Hey, would you be safe?

See you tomorrow.

You look good in this car.

Isn't it past your bedtime?

Nah, I just stepped out for smoke.

A couple of my debts, please.

Help yourself.

You can find Harley Bloom at the Bay Area Nordic Museum tomorrow morning, 8 a

.m.

No, I don't think this was such a good idea. I don't think we should have come,

JJ. Why?

Because everybody is looking at me.

Oh, yeah.

You're beautiful.

Let's go in.

Cassie, where have you been?

Did you hear about Sharon?

No. What?

She decided to spend the night playing Florence Nightingale to Matt at the

hospital. She did?

Where's Jake?

He's here, alone, looking for you.

Hi, I'm Beth.

JJ. Pre -med at Stanford.

You are?

Um, his dad works with my dad.

Get in there.

Okay.

How'd the dance go?

Great. My dogs are barking. I think Jake and I dance every single dance

together. Jake?

Yeah, it's a long story.

What happened to J .J.? He went home early.

He did, huh?

What? I'm supposed to go with J .J. when the man of my dreams is standing right

there?

Mom?

I'm sure. Now I'm supposed to feel guilty about it.

Go to bed.

So what was Cassidy's report?

She didn't have much to say.

How about JJ?

Are you kidding?

He had the jaws of life to get the kid's eyes open before noon.

Not that he wouldn't make a good son -in -law.

Holly,

I should have never let you talk me out of going with you. One of my stupider

moves.

Does that look right to you, Bubba?

Not even close.

Holly, get out!

You okay?

Holly?

You okay?

All right? Yeah.

Good.

Call 911.

Counsel, approach the bench, please.

It's 917, Counselor. Your Honor, I would hope under the circumstances that the

court could show a little patience. The witness will be here.

Five more minutes and then we move on.

Excuse me, what is going on here?

Your Honor, I'm Inspector Bridges, SIU, and we are here with your witness, but

there's a couple of matters that we need to clear up, and I'm going to suggest

we do it in chambers. Well, Inspector Bridges, this is a court of law, my

and you do not come in here making demands.

I understand, Your Honor.

I'm still going to suggest that we speak in chambers. In my court, you answer to

my rules. Now sit down.

Fine. I'll do it right here. You're in contempt of court.

Bailiff arrests this man. John, Will, they make one move towards us, you

them.

This is outrageous.

You bet it is.

It's bad enough that the defendant here, Mr. Guest, buys three U .S. marshals

and puts them on a payroll, but it turns my stomach, sir, to see you sit up

there in the robes of justice, knowing that he bought you, too.

Your Honor.

I move that you declare a miscross.

I'll go one better.

It's clear that this witness is going to testify with prejudice.

I'm dismissing this case.

Sorry, sir, you don't have that authority anymore.

And, Counselor, if I were you, I'd get some rest.

These gentlemen right back here are U .S. attorneys.

They've come with a whole slew of new charges for your client.

Bailiff arrested.

Stacey, who else knew that I was taking Holly to meet her boyfriend this morning

besides you and me?

You and me and Judge Renner.

Arrest Mr. Goethe and his honor.

No, you can't do this. You're out of order.

You're out of business.

Stand up, please, Judge.

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be... Have to be on your back.

You have the right to be an attorney, and to have that attorney present during

questioning.

Hey, Cass.

Hey.

How was the rest of the dance last time?

Fine.

Um, look, JJ, I was being totally selfish.

Um, it's kind of like I was channeling Sharon's goma from you there.

All I could think about was Jake. But, um, when I was with Jake, all I could

think about was you. How sweet you were.

How I used you.

I'm really sorry, JJ.

That's okay.

No, I can't believe I did that to you.

Get over it.

That was yesterday.

Just today.

Really?

Can you show me how to do that?

On a skateboard?

Yeah. Sure.

You really want a line?

Mm -hmm. I do.

Thanks for working it out so I didn't have to testify.

Don't worry about it.

Even with the best lawyers money can buy, I guess it's going to be in prison

a long, long time.

Good luck.

Good luck.
