Now you guys are right on time as usual.

How's it going today?

Let's go.

For deposit only, for deposit only. Right.

And you have endorsed correctly.

I want to deposit these for Ardmore Hardware. Uh -huh. Am I supposed to put

little numbers of the check on there? Yeah, right. Right over here, see?

Oh,

while I'm doing that, would you please cash this for me? Two rolls of pennies,

roll of nickels, a roll of dimes, and the rest in quarters.

Two pennies, two rolls of nickels. Please.

One,

nine, eight.

B and... B. You ready?

Just one, eight, three, five, seven.

Correcto. And there's your pen. Yeah. Here you go.

One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four. Two dollars, ten.

Here's your book. Thank you. Is that your pen? My pen.

I'm sorry. Yes, sir. Oh!

Hello.

Would you mind... Cashing, uh... Honey, I'd like $51 bills.

Here you go. I'll count it. Great. Thank you very much. I'm so sorry.

Uh -huh.

Stella, I need some change.

Here you go.

When did you accept it?

Drop the bags.

Drop those bags right there.

All right, everybody just stand still.

Repeat location.

That's East on 16th Street at 8th Avenue.

10 -4.

An ambulance, Crocker.

Nothing's sacred.

There, 16th.

747 to Central. Now have ambulance spotted. He's on Broadway heading south.

Did you get the flight?

Yeah.

CIP 439, I think.

You call it in. I'm going back to the bank.

Okay. Here. Don't say I never gave you anything.

You see what happened, lady?

You saw him when his mask came off, didn't you?

She's seen one of them. Get her name.

Yeah, sure.

That could have been you or me.

We got lucky.

Miss?

Are you hurt?

He's dead.

Just like that.

It happens.

Those men, did you get them?

Not yet, but I expect we will.

You expect so.

That's all.

Miss, I understand you saw the face of one of the men.

Well, if they should get away, we're going to need you to track them down.

Lieutenant.

Pure silk.

Fifty cents a piece. He was probably getting... Five dollars for them, or

whatever he can, or whatever he could.

Yeah, well, his name is Jonathan Laszlo, and he has a Brooklyn address.

All right, notify next of kin and get the body down to the morgue. Right.

Thanks for your help. Lieutenant, they've made it. We followed them in the

alley, got into a truck, and they split. We lost them.

What's your name, miss?

Marina.

Marina Sheldon.

Miss Sheldon, I think we ought to go downtown and start looking at pictures.

What about him?

Well, the buddy will go to the morgue until it's identified.

Please, come on.

This

man

I'm looking for.

If I find him, if I identify him in court.

Then he definitely goes to jail, for sure?

Well, it depends on his attorney. A lot of things.

They're going to try to attack your memory because of all the excitement and

everything.

If you were a bum, they'd go after your character.

Like that.

Uh -huh.

These take fact a little further than what you got there.

These? Yeah.

You spot something?

Uh...

He looked like a friend of my sister's. A missionary.

In Guatemala.

Guatemala? Definitely not him.

I smell coffee.

There are a lot of people around here who have cups of coffee. Do you think

I could possibly have some, Black?

Please forgive me.

Sometimes my manners are a little odious.

Coffee? Thank you.

Marina.

Bonzi, go tell your Uncle John Marina is here.

Such a terrible thing.

In the middle of the city.

In the middle of the day.

You know, Marina, you always have a job here with us if you want it.

There are still people with money who believe in us. Thank you,

Katrina. I have something else to do first.

Before anything else.

But if you want money, you must ask with money.

If the spirits take this, you will be truly blessed.

Marina.

Marina.

Sit down. Sit down, Marina. Sit down.

You are going to be all right. Yes.

I need your help.

Don't ask. You have it. Anything.

This man, Clyde Regan. Everything I know about him is written on the back.

He is a gypsy?

No, no. A garjo. He's one of the bank robbers.

I want to find him.

The robbery.

John, it gives me such an idea.

Well, we can try.

We may not be only thousands, but we are a million of these garjos.

You'll need money for the informants.

You cannot give me cent number one.

If I were a younger man, I would ask my family to pay whatever your father

wanted for your dowry. But now we cannot ask your father such things anymore.

You'll help me now.

You'll make things right for me.

Susan, we want copies of this picture.

I know where I can get them.

Free.

Took it apart at ballistics. No fingerprints on any part of it. It's as

the ambulance.

She checked with Treasury.

Yeah, they'll be coming down later. Tentatively, they think it's from a

from a National Guard armory up in Albany last year.

They got any leads on that job?

No, nothing.

Anything from the agency that rented out the ambulance?

Yeah. The guy who made the arrangements, he said it was a prop for a porno film

production. They promised the rental collector to come down on the set for a

couple of days.

He was so busy gazing at the body beautifully, he wasn't looking at his

face. What is this?

Three guys spray lead all over the sidewalk.

They kill a little old man.

Nearly score for 300 ,000 bucks in midtown, broad daylight, and we've got

nothing to go on? Lieutenant, you want to talk to the manager of the bank?

Mr. Marcus, Lieutenant Kojak.

Hello, Mr. Marcus.

He's coming to the office.

Well, maybe, Mr. Marcus, somebody inside the bank, you know, an employee, a

customer. Help these guys with the timing on this job.

Now, that pickup, it's made the exactly same time every day. Anybody could sit

in that coffee shop across the street, check that out. Well, we checked with

waitresses across the street and came up with no leads at all.

How about maybe a new employee who didn't come to work this morning?

No, but while I am here, there's something I'd like you to help me out

talk about coincidence.

I think that girl involved in the shootout is the same one who passed this

counterfeit over on my teller.

There were some bank deposit slips taken from a hardware store nearby, huh?

Now, she used those to distract my teller.

Some kind of monkey business, and then she slipped that over on her.

Stavros?

You went through that 52 file with Marion Sheldon yesterday?

Yeah, drew a blank. Why? All right.

Let me have her address.

You take Mr.

Marcus here and go through the files. Maybe you'll spot a way to face those

cases of the bank.

Mr. Marcus, will you come with me? Okay.

Get your specs with you? Yeah.

195, what's 20?

Hold it, Frank.

195, 195.

Yeah, the number's there with 466. Sure, I figured.

Here. Give me that.

50. I'll call Treasury. Let's see what they've got on us.

Stop Ross. You get finished here, I want you to use Identikit and make up

something on Marina's show, then.

And when you're finished, I'll add what I can, okay? Yes, sir.

Hey, excuse me.

Where's the picture here?

Clyde Regan.

Yeah. She stopped at this cart for a minute.

She must have ripped off his picture. I wonder why.

Smoke -time con lady and a big -shot bank robber, huh?

Who knows? Maybe it's hero worship, love at first sight. How do I know?

Maybe she's an accomplice.

Why steal a mugshot?

Right here, Steve. You can find the address on it.

Pick him up.

And if not, just stake it out and get back to me, okay? Yes, sir. And a yellow

sheet on the check, all right? I want to talk to her. Okay.

Marina. You all right?

Come inside.

Come. We're having a party. It won't be good for you.

John said you wanted to see me.

If it's about passing any more counterfeit bills, I can't do that right

no, no, no, no. This is not counterfeit. This is about the man that you are

looking for.

Now, I passed the picture around, and I know a person who arranges it for people

who want to get guns. Now, you say there were machine guns involved in this

robbery. Good.

My friend, he took a man to get two guns exactly like that about a month ago.

Yes? He thought that he was a cop, so he stalled him for a few days, and then he

followed him, made sure he didn't go to the police.

When he didn't, they made the deal. This man, this is Regan?

No, no, but it may be one of the others.

He lives at... Here, all the information is right in the back of the picture.

Sam Graves.

You sure no one followed you, Sam?

Nobody's got my apartment staked out.

I got eyes in the back of my head like ESP.

I know when there's a stakeout. Yeah, maybe the girl was so scared she forgot

what she saw.

I saw your face, I'd be scared too.

Oh, that's very funny, Benson.

Everybody's laughing like it's an old war movie.

We lose the battle and we laugh?

$280 ,000.

That's what I figured we had. And you can't even keep two bags from falling

a truck. It was dumb in the first place. I'm midtown broad daylight. What is

that? That's the only way to do it.

With the ambulance, it was perfect.

Except the guard draws.

They had it called in even before that. Look at this. Five solid pages of banks

in the Manhattan classified, and we can't pull off one of them.

I don't believe it.

Hey, why, lay off for a couple of days, huh?

Relax.

We let our minds clear.

Yeah.

Sure. Sure, it's the same batch. There's no doubt about it. There's a lot of

this stuff floating around.

Oh, yeah? Well, this is the girl who passed it.

This face mean anything to anybody down at Treasury?

Sure, this fits a couple of descriptions we've had.

Got no name on her, but we think she's a gypsy.

Oh, really?

We've got our eye on one of the wholesalers.

He's a gypsy. He sells the counterfeit to other gypsies, then they try to pass

it. Like this girl here.

What's your interest in her?

Well, I got three bank robbers out there, and every one of them indictable

murder. And all I got for a lead is this little con artist who, for some reason

or other, has an interest in one of the men.

Now I gotta find that girl. Maybe through the wholesaler.

His name's Quire.

Aldo Quire.

I'll get you his address.

Thanks.

Three aces.

Who's that?

Who's there?

I'm looking for Sam Graves. I'm a friend of the guy who sells guns.

You're the broad at the bank.

What is this? How the hell did you get here?

Probably the same way the cops will.

That is, if you don't move as fast as possible.

And if you want to stay out of jail.

And if you want to pull off the biggest job of your life in the next few days.

Some broad finds us.

She's got to be right about the cops.

What's your angle, lady?

Look, I could have identified you to the cops. I didn't.

Instead, I took a gamble that I'd find you before them, and I did.

My name is Marina.

I'm a gypsy.

Understand?

Since I was 11 years old, I was bringing home 50, 100 bucks a day working

different cons for my family.

I got a touch for it.

I'm better at working at angles than anybody I know.

Now, you give me an idea how to figure out the biggest bank job ever with no

risk. I think we ought to get the hell out of here. If a chick like this... All

right! We move.

But first, our, uh...

Gypsy genius is going to tell us how she's going to make us all millionaires.

But, baby, it better be good.

But you ain't going no place.

Oh, this is better than good.

This is perfect.

Come here.

Got them.

They'll help you to form it. They had them in stock.

All right.

That's the right color? Gray?

Sure. We just get the embroidery up the leg and we get the company shields for

the shoulders.

That's not the kind of gun they use.

No. Get them right here.

This is an air pistol.

I just picked it up.

You got the gas can?

Yeah. Filled with water.

These the biggest dogs they make?

Yeah, this is the most powerful pistol, too. Let me see that.

Beautiful. Out of sight.

Right on target. Okay, I'm convinced.

Now, I'm getting impatient.

All right, well, I get these started early tonight. I get them back maybe

tomorrow. Maybe we go tomorrow.

All right. That is if I can locate my friend Dennis in time. It's one of the

benefits. I ought to go get the car. All right.

One station wagon and a nice inconspicuous sedan for the getaway. You

back in the alley.

Okay. All right? Wait a minute.

Don't nobody want to see this?

Oh, just like magic, huh?

Hey, that's a good product.

Do we follow or pick him up?

Pick him up on what?

You mean get a gypsy to get a straight ass out of another gypsy?

You gotta be kidding.

You ever heard about the mob being tight mouthed?

The gypsies make the mob seem like a non -stop canary.

Then we'll follow for a while.

Hey, Crocker, there's a real specialist you ought to check out one day.

Dennis the Paw Guy.

You know, he's got the best tumbling act in New York.

Except when a boy shows at Carnegie Hall.

The garden, Lieutenant.

Garden.

The garden.

How are you doing, huh?

How you doing, Aldo?

I'm doing all right. How did you do on that old lady there?

A hundred bucks for a new jacket. She got a good deal. Yeah. I got a friend

who's willing to put 500 down for one little fall.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Dennis and a counterfeiter?

I don't get it.

Really want you to do that?

That'll be your first time for me. All right.

Your money and your instructions will be at this address. Now, you get there by

11. It'll come down this afternoon.

Good luck.

How

many

more? That's it.

That's all of them.

I think it's time I got my fortune told.

Marina, Aldo is here.

Did you find that man at Bangkok?

Yes.

That's why I called about needing Dennis.

Did you talk to him? Yes, yes. It's all arranged. He's on his way to the address

you gave me.

You know this man?

Yes.

Kojak.

It's a lieutenant who took me to the police station.

Go in the back.

Yes? Hello there. I'm Lieutenant Kojak, Manhattan South.

I've come for a tea reading.

I got my life, it's all full of these mysteries.

Of course.

Come in. Oh, thank you.

Yeah.

Susan.

My daughter is very good with the tea leaves.

Susan, make some tea for the police officer.

Yes, Father.

Oh, Alden.

Don't leave.

Look at that. I got my own crystal ball. And what do I see in there? I see that

you are a very shady character.

Ah! Look, I also see a very pretty dark girl.

Huh?

She's in a lot of trouble. She's in a lot of trouble with me. You know, she's

razzle -dazzle carnivorous little chick.

Passing bad paper all over town.

Marina, whatever her real name is.

Marina?

Never heard of her.

Clyde Regan?

Regan?

That's a friend of yours?

Him? No, he's my cousin. His name is John.

John? Come here, John.

What are you going to do with your daughter?

You going to teach her how to count these little old ladies who come in here

have their fortunes told?

You going to teach her how to switch the wallets?

How about that Mexican truck swindle?

Maybe she will become a doctor, no?

Perhaps she will become a hooker, yes?

A curva?

Come on, Lieutenant. A gypsy woman who is a prostitute? It never happens.

She would be thrown out worse.

Oh,

I see her in the doorways.

I see her with no visible means of support. I see her being picked up for

prostitution. But more, I see this whole office here being closed down. Come

here. You want to take a peek? You think you can do anything with us?

Make any threats?

Hey, do you think you can do anything?

Huh? You think you have a divine right to go around stealing and a lie to me? I

want to find this Marina.

I want to find out how come she comes to my office, goes to the fire, steals a

mugshot of this Clyde Regan. I want to find out what he met this morning with

Dennis, the insurance company's nightmare.

Marina. Look, I'm sending a girl over now with the uniforms.

They're all set. And the guy I'm sending him over, he's on his way.

For the accident? You can explain.

Look, I can't go through it with you.

What do you mean?

Listen, you don't need me anyhow.

We've run through it enough times.

So do it this afternoon.

You'll never get a better chance.

Okay.

So, uh, when do we meet?

How do we get you your share?

You phone me at this number I'm going to give you after the job.

Okay. Reagan, don't try and cheat me.

I'm too smart.

I got too many friends.

I'll find you.

Are you kidding?

You deserve everything you got coming for this scheme.

You're a genius kid.

Good luck.

Fellas, we just saved ourselves a million bucks.

You want to make war with us?

Okay, Lieutenant.

We make war with you.

You laying threats on me?

Lieutenant Kojak.

Is there something I can do for you?

Oh, yeah.

Come downtown with me.

You lay there by my campfire.

You tell me little gypsy stories.

We talk about Clyde Regan.

We also talk about funny money just for laughs.

Come on.

Marina.

Don't worry, son.

Do you know what she's doing?

No, not exactly. But whatever it is, that lieutenant is not going to find out

anything from her. Never.

Okay, fellas, let's go get rich.

Here it comes now.

Wait till it comes closer.

Yeah, I can see it now.

Coming out pretty fast.

Figure what?

Ten minutes?

That makes it one o 'clock.

Right on schedule.

What's wrong?

All I know is we're not going anywhere in this truck.

Oh, hell, and we got ten pickups to make.

I'll go call for a replacement.

Lieutenant, we're finished with her.

Oh, yes. Please sit down, Miss Sheldon.

Or is it, uh, Menasha?

Or, uh, Remitra? Or Corso?

You know a lot about gypsy families.

Huh? My second year on the force, I nailed this Amy Poland.

Yeah, she was trying to hustle a couple of sweet little old ladies.

She told them, you know, you gotta burn your life savings in order to get rid of

the curse, right? They burn something, right?

What they burned was paper wrapped up in a babushka, which Miss Amy Poland had

switched at the last minute. A great chick, that Amy Poland. Oh, yeah.

But that was a gajo name. Her real name was Pavlina Spirko. You heard of her?

Yes, my father was very good friends with her.

And a few times I remember I was taken to visit her. I could listen to her. I

used to hide in the ofisa.

And I was told, listen to her very hard. See how good she is. And she was.

I was about seven, I think. Really?

What a wonderful childhood.

You know the story of the fourth nail?

In the story of the crucifixion of Christ, they say originally there were

intended to be four nails.

But then the gypsy stole one of them.

The one intended for the heart.

And ever since then, God has given the right to the gypsies to steal, right?

Yeah, I read that wonderful story a hundred times, but it don't got the

with me.

Any bargeurs, Marina?

Any little old ladies you've been hustling lately?

I always worked with my father.

We never did that sort of thing.

How about that counterfeit money? You've been nailed pretty good on that one,

huh? You never would have if it hadn't been for the robbery.

Yeah, how about that robbery? How are you involved in that? This Clyde Regan,

what is he, one of your gageux lovers?

You had to go to the 52 file and order Steeler's pictures to protect him? I

don't know what you mean.

Presto.

The property clerk, the inventory of your bag, contents, he came up with

All right.

You know, Lieutenant, the last thing a gypsy wants to do is go to jail.

Tell me why.

You want to drop the charges?

No, no, no. No deals.

Not up front.

You just keep talking.

You know, who knows?

All right.

You know, when I came down here after the robbery...

I couldn't believe those robbers had gotten away.

And then that Detective Stavros, he told me that it would be my testimony, me,

as a witness in court, that would nail them.

So then I figured it was going to come out that I'm a gypsy.

My record, maybe even the allegations about the $50 counterfeit bill, and all

that's going to damage my testimony.

So then I got the idea and decided.

Why don't I go find Regan?

I can, on my own, with my connections.

Don't stop, Marina.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Fairy tales, I love them. It's true.

I was going to locate him for you, then I'd tell you where to pick him up.

Never happened.

What for?

So you can get a civilian commendation?

Now you listen.

Even though they're only deposit slips, it's a felony. And we got you now on two

counts. That's five to ten.

You think about that before you start pulling those bourgeois snow jobs on me,

baby.

Oh, no.

Hey, mister.

Mister.

You put this guy?

Yeah. Get a cop. We better not move him. Looks like he's back.

Hey, mister.

Mister, can you hear me?

They call you?

The other guy's truck blew up on him. Yes.

We're running late. Let's go, please.

Somebody better call an ambulance.

You're the driver?

Yeah, that's right.

Can I see your license, please?

Hey, come on. What'd I do?

I got pickups to make. Not right now, you don't.

Treasury Department just busted out O 'Quire. He's dropping names right and

left, including yours. What?

I don't believe it.

I was telling you the whole thing about... Yeah, sure you were. With that

tale, honey, I'm a very busy man, okay? Would you take the prisoner away?

This way, ma 'am.

I'd pay a million to stay out of jail if I had it, so... I might as well do it

this way.

Excuse me, ma 'am.

Okay, Marina, am I gonna like this story?

You're gonna love it.

You see, I always wanted to knock off a bank.

In fact, a lot of banks.

Tomorrow we'll finish here?

Yeah, sure, go ahead.

Pick me up a 50 -pound bag of hundreds, huh?

Yeah, I'll do that.

So then Dennis, he takes a fall under the wheels of the replacement truck.

And then they can't move for maybe 30 minutes.

And in that time, the other car goes ahead and cleans up all the banks along

rest of the route.

It's genius.

Not that I admire it, but it's...

Pure genius.

How are these guys holed up waiting for it to happen?

A lady.

These are killers, and I want them now.

Yeah, but I get something. I want something in writing.

Huh?

Oh, yes, Stavros.

This is your lieutenant.

Get an assistant DA down here in five minutes.

You know what we got in back?

Five million, easy.

Back to the store.

You'll be granted immunity on a bank job if we stop it in time. Now, where are

these guys now? When is the surprise coming down?

Right now.

Maybe you can still catch them. Where?

Get out. Take me with you. I'll show you.

All right, Saperstein, get Crocker and Stavros and come on fast.

Right.

Thank you.

Car 723 to Central, have available units 1085 at Canal and Center Street.

Feels good, huh?

200 ,000 for Mr. Benson.

Yeah. 200 ,000 for Mr. Gray.

A nice 200 for me.

You know they're not going to give up.

They'll feed it out for that much money.

Be careful.

That's the way.

Police, open up!

Let's go.

Oh, yeah.

You really did these guys a favor.

Rigging gets blown away, the other two nailed dead to rights. You should have

stuck to your tea leaves, baby.

They sure were better off without you.

That's exactly right, Lieutenant.

Even if you picked them up before, you got a lousy case against them.

They could have gotten off, right?

Well, anything's possible.

Well, I didn't want that.

Aldo Quire arrested by Treasury.

Giving up a lot of gypsy names.

You think I bought that scam?

Hey, kid.

Don't take my lollipop away.

You know, we had you shook down pretty good.

Sure.

On my timetable.

You know, I had it all on a timetable.

The robbery and the confession.

2 .35.

Truck pulls up to store.

2 .20.

With or without your help, Lieutenant, I would have confessed.

You're going to turn yourself in, right?

Hey, Marina, I'm listening.

Make it good.

I always worked with my father.

Beautiful man.

He never sold me to anybody.

He was waiting for me outside that bank.

Laszlo.

The man that Regan cut in half with his bloody machine gun.

My father.

That agreement you signed clears me in this case.

Do you want me to call a lawyer on any other charges?

No.

We'll make another deal.

You know, if this story ever gets out, they're going to make you the queen of

the gypsies.

And one thing I don't need is another queen of the gypsies within a thousand

miles of my precinct.

Hey, look, kid, you go bury your father, do what you have to do.

And if we can't find you in three days when we come to arrest you for your

money caper, you're not there, well, you'll do us both a favor.

We'll both be very lucky.

Lieutenant, you're going to live to a nice ripe old age.

Baby, out.

How did you figure in this? What's the story?

Well, look, Crocker.

You'll have to read my memoirs.

Hey, this one's too good to give away.

Rigby falls for Philip's womanising skills in Rising Damp at 11 .55.

Then the cast of the famous Carry On Everything are back with a few sketches

bring a tear of joy to our eyes.

That's all after mothers have their last say in On The Buses Next.
