Yeah.

Yeah, well, at least I'm here, Bubba.

Where the hell are you?

I had an arrangement. I don't like being stood up. Shut up. Did you bring what I

need, Malone?

Yeah, it's here, too. In fact, the only thing that's not here is you.

I'm closer than you think.

Bye, Malone.

high because you're pissing me off oh my god are you okay yes i'm fine doesn't

Look, you're going to the hospital, even if I have to take you myself, okay?

And you are?

Nash.

Hey, Joe.

Hey.

You, uh, remember me?

Hell yes, I remember you.

I was just a little fuzzy there for a minute.

What day is it?

Um, uh, Wednesday.

Uh, you and Inger left for Napa. Yeah, on Monday. That's the last time we

So, uh, what did the doctor say?

Uh, nothing yet. Just do any minute.

Mr. Bridges.

I'm Dr. Berry. I'm the head trauma specialist.

Hi, doctor. Is that the head trauma specialist or head trauma specialist?

Who are you?

Oh, this is my partner, Joe Dominguez.

Usually the spouse is in on this. Well, that would be him in almost every

respect.

Whenever you're ready, doc.

That was one hell of a blow you took today.

More like a blow up.

The contusion you sustained when you hit the pavement caused as much damage as

the blast itself.

What does that mean?

That you've still got some cranial swelling, but most serious is this.

Subdural hematoma near the left frontal lobe. That doesn't sound good, huh? You

were very lucky, Inspector.

So are there any side effects that I can look forward to other than this

delightful migraine? The most common side effect is short -term memory loss,

which I'm sure you're aware of.

Is it permanent?

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. You could regain some, all, or none of your

We'll have to wait and see.

All right, thanks, Doc. We're not doing anything here. Let's get out of here.

Okay, who's the president?

Lincoln. Next.

Can you stop trying to minimize this, will you?

What's your wife's name?

I'm married.

I have two ex -wives, Kelly and Lisa.

I have a daughter named Cassidy, a father named Nick. Now, are you

Tell me what the hell you know about this case I was on.

I can't help you there. I had to take Inger to Napa, remember?

You know Inger? My wife? I know Inger's your wife.

You have that blunt look on your face for a second.

Anyways, what's the last thing you do remember?

Lisa's going away party.

It was almost a week ago.

She did leave, right?

She's in Paris cooking at that restaurant.

Remember that time I shot a 75 at the Coast Ridge Country Club?

No.

That's a good sign.

You don't remember things that never happened.

Let your desk go down the ladder.

I know which desk is mine. I was just trying to remember what the hell I was

doing the last time I was here. Now, I met with the PI, right? Hey, man, you

still remember me?

All right, everybody listen.

I remember everybody, okay?

I remember all of you.

Remember me?

You I meant to forget.

Good afternoon, Michelle. Nice to see you again.

Good afternoon, Dash.

See? Huh?

What's she doing sitting there?

I hired her last week.

That's good. That's smart, man. She's great.

I was on mushrooms last time I experienced somebody else's deja vu.

Thank you. Very funny. Now, if you want to fill me in, I need to know everything

I was into last week. All right, Nash. This is all due sympathy. This is your

life. A, this is what's left of Bob.

Thermite mixed with magnesium accelerants wired to a radio fuse, range

miles. So the guy could have been anywhere.

He was probably a pro, but in this day and age, any eighth grader can get the

plans for this kind of bomb off the Internet, so it doesn't help us too

This is the PI you were working with?

Now, this is Jay Larson. He's a former hitman for the mob.

Since retired and reformed.

So what was I doing right before I dropped off the radar? Now, Larson had

contacted you because somebody contacted him about a contract killing. You went

undercover as Teddy Malone four days ago. That's the last we heard of you.

Why would I drop out of sight for four days and not communicate with anybody?

That we don't know.

Well, hell, that's not like me. We agree.

Well, damn it, don't let me do that no more. Maybe the guy that you were

with was a cop and you were being followed and monitored.

Now, that's good. That's pretty good.

That's a possibility.

Do we know why I went to the abandoned project? Sorry, boss. We're as in the

dark about that as you are.

Okay, well, run a check on me, Harv.

And Teddy Malone's credit cards. And I want the phone records, too. And I want

to know who I was with and why the hell I was with him.

And Evan, get that guy Larson in here.

I want to talk to him. Right.

So what are you going to do now?

I don't know. I'm going to go check on Nick.

Hell, he's probably got a better memory than I do now.

She could fight a war all by herself.

Man, look at this stuff. This isn't standard police issue, is it? Nah, too

tech. This is very Emma Peel of her. Remember the Avengers, that TV show?

Damn, you're young.

You know what? That woman is extremely hot.

No, no, no. Tread very gently on that stuff.

What do you say to... I'm using that kind of language when talking about a

fellow police officer.

You've got to be careful nowadays.

Yeah, but what if she would like... Yeah, all I'm saying is don't let

else hear that.

There's people who file lawsuits for less than... The first time I saw that

woman, I wanted to kiss the nape of her neck. I wanted to devour her flesh. I

wanted to do the wild thing with her. How's it going to reduce her to Mr.

if you know what I'm talking about? You been taking those testosterone

supplements?

Excuse me, guys.

Uh, can you do me a favor? Uh, sure, sure.

Stay away from my stuff.

No, no, no.

Yeah, well, uh, how did my debt recorder get turned on?

Dad, what happened? Oh, it's nothing. A little bump.

Don't try to make nice with me after what you said the other night. I'm just

here to check on Grandpa.

Uh, the other night. What conversation are you referring to specifically?

Oh, I think you know, and I don't want to talk about it.

All right, fine.

First of all, I'm 18 years old, and I'm legally free to make my own decisions.

Second of all, I don't need your permission or your approval for

And thirdly, it's Mom's house, and I'm in charge of it, and that means it's

totally up to me. Sweetheart, I got a little bit of a headache right now. Why

don't we pick this up another time? There's no need to pick it up any other

time. I don't want to discuss it. I don't even know why you brought it up.

Neither do I.

What is this tactic?

You think I'm going to forgive you because you're completely indifferent?

Honey.

Unbelievable.

Goodbye, Dad.

What was that all about?

Well, I don't know. But it must be serious.

Because you're calling me Dad and not Daddy.

Smell your head.

Looks like you got a bump.

Yeah, I took a blow to the head this morning.

I'm not quite myself.

I've sort of lost track of the last week or so.

You're okay, right? You feel all right?

Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

I think my memory's a little foggy.

I know how that feels.

Yeah, I bet you do.

Want to pick some dinner and catch the game?

Got anything to eat?

I don't know. Hopefully one of us remembered to go shopping.

Hey, we're in luck.

All right, look at that.

Uh -huh.

Yeah, there.

Uh, you happen to remember where we keep the knives?

Yeah. Nash, it's Harper.

What do you got? We found your informant, Larson. His body was dumped

on the Oakland side.

Oh, man.

Where are you?

Thanks for keeping an eye on me, Nick.

Good morning, troops.

Is it?

Somebody beat Larson to death, then he was moved and dumped in the water near

the South Oakland docks. Oh, that's not good.

How's things at your place?

Oh, you know, let's see his TV.

Say, what's going right for a tooth disease?

I think the rule of thumb is a bucket tooth.

It can get expensive.

Well, the good news is you don't have to think about it for a while. Oh,

speaking of money, Nash, I ran Teddy Malone's credit cards. It seems that he,

that is you, have an open bill at the Regatta Hotel?

Michelle. Yes. Let's go.

Let's check this out.

What the hell do you think you're doing?

Trying to get the dad recorder back in.

Breaking and entering?

What do you expect me to do?

Here's that thing. I am toast.

Now you're too late. Get the dad recorder home.

Oh, tell me that you're kidding, please. I saw her put it in her bag.

Harvey, you've got to help me. I mean, if she hears that tape, I will never

a chance with that woman ever again.

And your point is?

The point is that I'm serious.

I mean, she would have complete power over me. I could even get fired over

And you're in this just too much. Oh, you're making me feel all cheap and

all of a sudden.

You're on that tape too, Harvey, as much as I am.

Yeah, well, and truth be told, I think I came off pretty well in that

conversation.

Harvey!

Can you get that for me?

Yeah.

Oh.

Hello.

Is Cassidy here?

Is she expecting you?

Yeah, yeah. I'm a new friend.

And I'd like to be honest with you, sir, and tell you that I'm an ex -convict.

You know, I think that I feel that everyone should know right off the bat,

know, all about me because I have nothing to hide. You know, absolutely

You know, I serve my time. I'm fully redeemed. I'm renewed and renovated, if

will.

That's one of the types of freedom in my mind.

That's Mr. John Milton.

Cassidy, are you expecting an ex -convict?

Hi, Gary.

Hello. Don't worry about my grandfather. He's just overprotective when he

doesn't know someone.

No, no, that's fine. You know, Grandpa and I, we had a chance to talk at the

door, and I feel that we made a bit of a connection, a kinship, a spiritual

bond. Didn't you feel that?

No.

It's so funny. You see how that... You see how I just, like, grow on people

like that.

Grandpa, I'm tutoring Gary. It's for the State Correctional Reading Program.

We teach parolees to read at a higher level so they can get a better job. Mm

-hmm. Crooks and books. That's what we call it.

Does your father know about this?

Oh, yeah. We discussed it.

Gary, why don't you sit over there? Did you bring your book?

Mm -hmm.

No. No, actually, I did want to talk to you about that.

You know I got a new job, and thank you. And it doesn't start until next week,

so... And the thing is...

that I was thinking, and if it's okay with you, and I don't want to bother

maybe you could just let me, you know, spot me at 20?

Yeah, sure, sure, I could do that. Okay, great.

Nikki, you're such a pure person. I think that your granddaughter is just,

she? And this is the last favor I think that I ever, ever probably can ask you.

Good.

So, Grandpa, are you going to have lunch with us?

I think I just lost my appetite.

Mr. Malone, so nice to see you again.

Oh, yeah, how you doing?

Fantastic. Oh, thanks again for the other night.

The other night? I can't recall the last time I've had that much fun with

another man.

Really? Tell us about it. Well, Mr. Malone gave Giants tickets to Sean, the

captain, and me right behind home plate. Oh, I brought you a little souvenir.

Thanks.

I seem to have misplaced my key.

Oh, no problem.

Malone. Here we go.

32nd floor.

Thanks very much. Thank you.

Mr. Malone. Yeah.

To the right.

I knew that.

I play.

Teddy Malone's one classy guy.

I'll tell him when I see him.

Hey, Ness.

Does that look familiar?

Never seen it before.

So the way things are going, it's probably mine.

Huh.

Anybody you know?

Not that I remember.

Well, this doesn't look too good, guys. These pictures were taken right here.

Kudos to housekeeping.

You can't tell there was a dead body in here. There wasn't.

Check it out.

Well, so who took these pictures?

Well, I guess I did. That's my camera.

So you faked her death?

Why? And where is she?

Hell off, that'll for who is she?

She got this bottle out of the minibar, so we'll get the lab guys over here to

dust the joint. Maybe we'll get lucky.

What's that?

Cocktail napkin from the Peninsula Club.

Not my handwriting.

Went to the 8 a .m. Wary Housing Project Presidio.

That was yesterday.

Right when I was getting my bell rung.

I'm betting whoever wrote that note's got to try to blow you up.

Get as good as mine. Let's run with it.

Hey, Nick.

How are you?

What are you doing here? How are you doing?

I'm worried about you, son. Oh, I'm fine, really, Nick.

Don't worry. I've been racking my brain, you know, trying to reconstruct what

you did.

Any luck? Well, I remembered a few things here.

Where are these two days blank?

We didn't come home two nights.

Well, I didn't want to ask you. You know, that's your business.

I was working undercover. It's okay. I was paying at a hotel.

Um, says here, um...

Argument with Cassidy.

Any idea what that's about? She wants to tutor an ex -convict. She does?

At Lisa's place.

Well, I have every damn right to be mad dead.

Huh.

Thanks, Dad.

Thank you a lot. You're welcome.

Dad, my suit.

I'll see you later. Okay.

Thanks again.

Nash.

Me who?

Me who? It's CJ.

Where have you been? Why haven't you called me?

I've been busy.

Typical. You said you would take care of me. You said everything was going to be

okay. I did everything you said. I've been sitting in this rat hole for two

days. I'm losing my mind.

Who is it?

I think it's the girl in the pictures.

Listen, wait. Wait a minute. I want to pick you up. Where are you?

I am exactly where you left me.

Why are you tracing this?

I got to keep her out.

Um, listen, CJ, I want to help you. I just... No, no. Just forget it, okay? I

trusted you once. That's enough.

Thanks for nothing, Nash. I'm out of here.

No, no, no, no. Wait. CJ.

Did you get it?

Nope.

At least you know she's still alive.

I think I need a drink.

In the sauna, myself and these three ladies, and we're naked.

And it's about three feet of snow outside.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

Hey there.

Back to Bridget.

Best to put this. Have you ever seen me before?

We get a lot of people.

Uh -huh.

So what you're saying is that sometimes we need some help to refresh your

memory. Yeah, well... Well, hope's always nice.

Give me 50 bucks.

I forgot to get cash.

Convenient.

I only got 320.

I got change.

Yes, you do.

Now, tell me, Ward, does that refresh your memory?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, you were in here four nights ago.

Sunday. Yeah. Yeah, it was cigar night. You were smoking a... Cardigans or a

Cohiba Special.

Do you happen to remember if I was with anybody?

You just came up and ordered a drink.

Do you ever get a customer in here named CJ?

Don't look at me. I'm tapped out.

Want to get in on this?

Yeah, it's like paying tuition.

She's not a customer. She's a waitress.

She used to work here.

Doesn't work here anymore?

No, no, she quit.

Monday night. We're going to need her address.

You take credit cards?

This one's on the house.

She lives in an apartment on Geary and 49th, second floor.

All right.

If you hear from her, I want to hear from you. Okay, Ward?

They're a reward?

Keep that sense of humor, fella.

Somebody looking for C .J.

Evidently, Mr. Montebello.

Can I freshen up your table, sir? Sure.

Send it around and double's over.

Yes, sir.

So, you getting car sick yet?

What, are you kidding me?

My uncle was a mechanic on the Mopar circuit in the early 80s. I grew up

cars. Explains why you worked auto theft for two years, huh?

Yeah, hell.

Nash. The hell do you want from me?

Uh, what do you think I want?

I think you want to kill me since you don't seem to want to arrest me. Well,

that's a good guess.

What? I can't figure out what your angle is.

Right after the bar was just plain strange.

Well, I'll tell you what. Why don't you stay there and I'll come back for act

two. You really think I'm dumb enough for that?

Well, I don't know how dumb you are yet.

Let me get back to you on that one.

Who was that? That was our bad guy.

The one that hired me to kill DJ.

And you hung up on him?

He knows my cell phone number.

And I never give out my cell phone number when I'm undercover and get him

He probably got it from your car at the bar, which means he knows you're alive.

Well, let's turn around and shake him down. I don't even know what this guy

looks like. I couldn't pick him out of a lineup if I had to.

We got nothing on him until we find the girl.

Gotta find the girl. Let's hope she remembers who you are.

Maybe we should have called first.

All right, sister, do your thing.

All right.

I handed him around.

Extremely.

Hello?

C .J.? Hello?

C .J.? Place look familiar to you?

How do I know? I could have painted and redecorated it.

Joe, get out!

Police! Police, put it down!

Police, put it down! Put it down!

Give me that!

Joe?

Joe?

You okay?

Are you alright?

You are?

Very funny. Come on, get up.

Slowly. You okay?

I'm just going to get tasered. I'm going to have sushi for lunch.

Uh, Bubba, after that laser, that little jolt, I don't think it's fishy anymore.

Calm down.

Calm down. We're not here to hurt you. I'm yelling at you. Police, police,

police. Here's my badge and here's a police ID.

You satisfied? If we weren't cops, you'd be dead right now. Sit down there.

Okay, I believe you.

Now, you ready to talk?

Where's CJ?

She called about an hour ago, ranting and raving that someone was trying to

her. Any idea who?

Look.

Damn obvious.

Look, we need to know exactly what she said.

Okay, huh? She said she was afraid to come home.

She wanted me to pack up some clothes, put them in a suitcase, and bring them

her. Only she wouldn't say where she was.

She was going to page me when she got to a safe place.

Like I have time to be an extra in this little Hitchcock movie in her head.

I'll buy that pager from you.

Why don't you tell me what the hell's going on?

I'll give you a hundred bucks for it.

The chick owes me 200 for a security deposit.

All right, I'll give you 200 bucks. Sold.

So you got 200 bucks?

Uh -huh.

Pay her.

You all right?

Yeah. All right, come on. Let's go.

Yeah, you're doing good.

Attaboy. You got it? Yeah. Good.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait. No, not that way. This way.

You know, you are kind of handy to have around.

Yeah, yeah.

So, uh, what's the plan, Ash?

Well, this is our magic bullet.

PK calls.

We're going to have an umbilical cord to her. Once we've got her, we'll have the

answers to the questions we don't have now.

Sounds like this is getting fun.

Oh, yeah, it's a real blast.

Well, you're not getting carsick, are you, Joe?

Nash. Nash, it's me.

Hi.

Why are we whispering?

I'm over at Lisa's place putting a new washer on the faucet and, well...

I don't want Cassidy to think that I'm a tattletale, but... But what?

But she's tutoring that guy, the one from prison, the ex -convict, you know.

You better get over here right away. That's all I'm going to say.

All right, I'll be right over.

What's up?

Well, it's a long story.

Most of it I don't remember.

But I'm going to have to drop you guys at SIU, and then I'll meet you back

in a couple of hours, unless we hear from CJ.

Article in today's paper you might want to check out.

What's up?

Oakland postal employee repeatedly told his co -worker she had nice breasts. She

took them to court and he had a three -month suspension, no pay.

Are you purposely trying to scare me, Harv? Is that what you're doing here?

trying to cheer you up, man.

After two weeks of jury trial and a week of jury deliberations, you've got to

quit it. Really? Oh, yeah. Turned out to be his word against hers.

Of course, she didn't actually have his conversation with Tate.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a second here, Harv.

We've got to do something about this now.

Well, call her. Nash just dropped her off at home.

And what am I supposed to say? You know, destroy the tape that's inside of your

recorder? I don't think so. Here's a bold notion. Come clean with her, Evan.

Tell her the truth.

Not a good idea.

Absolutely not. We don't know her. She might be very understanding.

That's what I'm saying. We don't know her. We have no idea she's going to

Evan!

I'm telling you that it's better to act than react.

Okay, wait a second.

No, I already don't like the idea.

No, no, no. Listen to this.

How about if we go to her house, right? And then you distract her and I'll

switch the tapes.

Would I possibly agree to do that?

Because I'm your best friend and I have the big screen TV.

What possible excuse do we have to be dropping over at her house? I don't

I don't know. You'll think of something. Let's go, please.

Are you sure about this? Why do you ask for my advice if you don't trust it?

Harv, it's a bundt cake. It's a perfect McKnight's gift. There's no romantic

overtones. It's friendly. It's homey. It's completely neutral.

It's a gift that says absolutely nothing.

Yeah, right, right.

Oh, well, nobody's home. Look.

Harv, I've got to get this tape. Hold this.

What do you suggest?

Oh, God, more breaking and entering. That's handy so we can rest ourselves.

Look, can't we just, like, put it in the refrigerator? Very simple.

Oh, Evan.

Hi,

guys. Hey. Hi, Michelle. Hey, Michelle.

What are you guys doing here?

Well, we were just in the neighborhood, and we thought... Actually, we were

nowhere near the neighborhood. We just, uh... We thought we got off on the wrong

foot earlier, and so... Right, right. So we wanted to welcome you to the SIU.

Bunt cake.

That's very thoughtful.

You guys want to come in?

I could...

Put on a pot of coffee. Well, we weren't planning on staying, but this.

Sure.

Wow.

Nice legs, my son. You got a view?

Yeah, upstairs.

Yeah, I figured if I was going to be living in the city, I had to have a

with a view.

Yeah. Boy, man, this is... Yeah, I'd love a tour.

Yeah, sure. Follow me.

I'm going to find the restroom, guys. Okay.

over there.

Hi, Cassidy.

Oh, hi, Dad.

This is Gary.

Gary Stokes from the correctional reading program, the person you and

had the discussion about last week. Grandpa, why are you acting so funny?

I'm not acting funny. I'm not acting funny, am I?

Oh, no, you're not acting funny. Sir, it's a real pleasure to meet you, sir.

Gary.

What exactly were you in the slammer for?

Nick!

No, I... I think I took some bad paths when I was younger. And I see the error

of my ways, and I think that with Cassidy's help that I can get back on my

for good.

Isn't that sweet, son?

So, Daddy, why are you here?

Me? Uh... He dropped by to pick me up. Yeah, I dropped by to pick him up.

Okay, well, as long as you're here, Gary has something he wants to ask you. I've

been having a little problem.

That was really nice. You know, in the two years that I worked out of it, I

don't think anybody came to visit my house. Well, we're a pretty tight -knit

group at the SIU.

Yeah, well, thanks for the Bundt cake.

No problem. You have a wonderful day, Michelle.

Okay. Tomorrow, you bring the bagels.

Sure.

You get it?

Yes, I do.

You owe me a big time.

Oh, and guys, I almost forgot.

I wanted to weigh in on your little work discussion.

You know, I don't mind frank sexual talk in the office as long as it's not

directly concerning me.

And, uh, just for your information, if a co -worker ever tries to introduce me

to Mr. Happy, I'll very quickly make him into Mr.

Unhappy.

Goodbye.

So you think I still got a chance with her?

Unless she gets blown up and loses her memory, no.

So you see, sir, what I need, sir, is a professional perspective on how to

handle this very unfair, I think, harassment that I continue to receive.

I'm a little lost here.

Okay, sir. This is the thing. This is what I need, sir. I need... Gary, can we

stop with the third, okay?

Sure. So, my problem is that every time there's a holdup at an ATM, the police

got me on speed dial.

Yeah, because I can be just sitting there, you know, minding my own

Wham! Some wacko cop.

Not you.

comes in, takes me down to the police station, throws me in a chair, you know,

interrogates me.

Yeah, you know, it's like something out of Kafka.

You know, that big roach?

We're reading Metamorphosis.

Yeah, well, uh, we got a little problem here.

Yeah, tell me about it.

Now, you said that you were convicted 16 times for felony ATM robbery

over a span of, what, eight weeks in, uh, 95?

No, no, sir.

Uncorrect. No, two of those. Yes, we're thrown out, you know, for lack of

evidence.

Well, I mean, you've got to admit that I go a lot.

Yeah, no, I do. I admit that.

In the past, I dabbled in malevolent behavior, but that was long before we

the beacon of literature.

Yeah, everybody deserves a second chance. You said so yourself, Daddy.

I did?

Yeah, I remember.

And I can help it if I have a coming from a Dickensian, right, childhood?

Would that be Charles Dickens or Angie Dickinson? Charles.

Okay, now, Gary, your M .O. suggests that if the cop didn't

interrogate you, they wouldn't be doing their job.

Oh.

Yeah, right, okay.

I understand that you've got to back your own people.

Could you excuse us a second?

Mm -hmm.

Be right back.

Daddy, he's harmless.

He is a villain, and you should not be seeing him outside the rehabilitation

center. Flashback. That's what you said last week. And by golly, you should have

listened to me. Well, I thought of all people you would understand, Dad. I

you work with people like him every day. You understand the prejudice he's up

against. That's because... Look, Daddy, it's not for him, then for me.

My concern for you is exactly why I said I didn't want you doing this. Now, this

conversation is over. We are not talking about this again. And you go back in

there and you get rid of him before your grandfather leaves. Do you understand?

CJ.

Wait, don't hang up, don't hang up. Listen, I got knocked in the head and I

a funny memory loss thing. Look, I'll explain later.

Where are you?

I'm not telling you.

CJ. The only way you're going to be safe is if you let me help you.

Gee,

I hope that's not your train.

No, it's not my train.

Stay where you are. I'll come and get you.

All right. Why should I trust you?

Well, because I need you as much as you need me.

I met Rick when I first started working at the club. He was this impeccable,

glorious Romeo type from an old money Pacific Heights address.

Actually, it was his wife's money and he was to work for her.

But we were incredible together.

Sounds crazy, but I think I'm still in love with him.

Go on.

I threatened to tell his wife's family about the affair if he didn't leave her.

His solution was to try to hire a man named Jay Larson to murder me.

Larson works for you, I guess.

He was an informant of mine.

Well, that's when you came in and arranged my death and hid me away.

Why did you have to arrange your death? I mean, couldn't you have arrested him

when he tried to hire you?

Conspiracy cases are always ten times stronger after the fact. Otherwise, it's

too easy to claim entrapment as a defense.

All right, C .J., who's this guy that hired me?

What's Rick's last name?

Montebello. Rick Montebello.

Didn't he marry Jennifer Dennison, the debutante?

He was her former bodyguard.

Who's Jennifer Dennison?

She's the daughter of P .T. Dennison, owns most of downtown, with about $2

billion.

All right, so if he thinks C .J. is dead...

I think it's time for me to go in and pick up my money and bag him.

He's a lot smarter than that. I mean, isn't that what you tried last time?

Bubba, I've got a slightly different plan this time.

I thought I ordered a case of that. Sure.

I'm sorry, sir. The club's not open for dinner yet. That's okay.

Why don't you give us a few minutes alone?

Clear everyone out.

Sure, no problem.

All guns are wise, I hope.

What is this, some sort of a ritual you have to go through? Being in the

personal protection business is only one thing.

Never trust your enemies.

And trust your friends even less.

Really?

It's what I learned.

Never trust your enemies. Ever.

We're over the grins and giggles. Why don't you tell me what the hell is going

on? You tried to kill me. You want to start? What are you talking about?

Let me help you.

I kill your mistress, and you don't pay me.

Then you try and blow me up.

Well, now it's going to cost you double the original amount.

Consider it interest.

I'll give it some consideration.

Consider this.

Pay or die.

Those are your two choices.

CJ, get the hell out of here.

She's alive?

That's right, Rick.

But you won't be for long.

Put the gun down.

Put it down, CJ.

No.

You said yourself that if this doesn't work, he's going to walk.

He'll snake out of anything. He's not going to snake out of this one.

CJ, don't get yourself in any deeper than you already are.

No, he's not going to get away with this. He's not.

And I'll shoot you, too, if you make me. I don't know what he's telling you, but

I still love you, sweetheart.

Oh, shut up.

Do not even speak to me.

Everything you've ever said to me was a lie.

Well, guess what?

There's no more lies, Rick.

This is exactly why I hired you to kill this lunatic. She's supposed to be dead!

All I ever did was love you.

That ought to do it.

What the hell is this?

You just confessed, Bubba. She's wearing a wire?

You're under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder.

You would never...

Trust this unstable bitch with a loaded weapon.

My bad.

Oops. You win the bet.

Hold it. Right there.

Now, those are loaded.

Cabin head.

Take her out of here, Michelle.

Well, it certainly was a case to remember.

One I won't forget.

See you next, ma 'am.

Hey, so how's Lisa doing? She taking the Paris cooking world by storm yet?

She called last night. She's doing great.

I think it's going to be really good for her. Yeah? How about for you?

Bubba, if she's happy, I'm happy.

You know, with that attitude, you guys should still be married.

I didn't have that attitude when we were married.

True.

Good morning, sir.

Hey, Michelle.

Morning, Inspector Chance.

Uh,

good morning, guys.

Hi. Had some of your Bundt cake for breakfast.

Mmm, good.

I want to know.

Inspector Brilliant!

Yeah, Inspector Brilliant!

Hey,

Inspector, hi.

What? It's so good to see you. Talk to this guy.

What's going on? He robbed and assaulted a woman at an ATM machine on Market and

6th. Security cameras caught the whole thing.

Inspector Bridges. Inspector?

You've got to help me, because you know what? This is my third strike. I'm

looking at 25 years.

And you are?

No, that's not funny. No, no, no, no. That's not funny.

No, that's not funny.

We have a connection.

Are we still fighting?

No, I've been thinking about what you said.

What I said?

You mean about Gary Stokes?

No, but you're right. He was a creep.

I was thinking about that other conversation we had about what I should

with my life, my master plan.

Your master plan?

Yeah, the advice he gave me.

I've really been thinking about it, and the way he said it, it was really

profound. I think I'll remember it as long as I live.

Good.

And if you were to summarize these remarks into two sentences, they would

Daddy, you know what I'm talking about.

Yeah, I do.

Hey, Nick. What do you got there?

Driving manual.

Driving manual.

Driving manual?

I'm voting out for my test tomorrow.

Did you want to quiz me?

Nice try, Nick.

We discussed this.

Oh, yeah. Last week, right?

You thought it would help me to be more independent if I could drive again.

Did you forget, son?

Let's be clear about something.

I might have lost my memory, but I didn't lose my mind.

You expecting someone? I don't know. Are you?

I don't know.

Hey, handsome.

Hi.

Ready for a date?

Which one of us? I just love your dad, Nash.

Okay, um, don't stay up too late studying.

Don't worry, I won't. Hey, don't you want to introduce me to your friend?

My mind's not what it used to be, right, Jack?

Uh, well, uh, I think we have to be going. We're, uh, we're late, right?

We're thinking about it. Well, see, we've got to leave now. I'll introduce

later, though.

Uh, we're having dinner?

Of course.

Yeah.

Oh!
