All language subtitles for Diagnosis Murder s07e21 Two Birds with One Sloan

Marianne Evers, November 11th, 1918.

Pete Best in the cave.

22nd parallel.

5440, your fight.

Greenwich Marie.

Mia Farrow, 93 million miles, Costa
Rica.

Can't you hurry it up some?

Look, it doesn't matter how fast I do my
work. We still have to get your x -rays

to come back.

Nothing's broken.

Well, you can't know that. I know
everything.

That's where I know you from. No one
knows everything.

Nah, this is Saul Finger from Through
the Roof, the game show.

Oh, I've been meaning to catch that
show.

For half a million dollars, Doc, how
soon can I get out of here?

Well, Dr.

Travis is right.

It's a lot quicker to wait for those x
-rays than it is to deal with

complications later. What's the rush?

That show is live. If I'm not at the
studio in half an hour, I'm going to

my shot at 500 large.

You mean they won't give you another
chance?

There are no second chances on Through
the Roof.

You know, Jesse, you're the attending
physician, but I have an idea.

And now, America's number one game show,
Through the Roof!

Let's welcome the man who makes people
rich, Drew McIntyre!

You're welcome, but just remember, if
any fractures show up in that x -ray,

you're going back with me.

They're not getting rid of Saul Singer
that easy.

Saul! Saul!

Saul! Saul! Saul!

I know, I know. We all wanted to see
Saul Singer come back and risk it all

half a million smackaroos.

My friend, Saul never came to the
studio.

I guess he just couldn't face you and
say, enough is enough.

The man decided to keep his money, and
that's okay.

We got two great new contestants.

Let's see how they can do. Let me
introduce... Not so fast!

I'm back!

And I'm a player!

So, we thought you decided to take your
money and run. Not a chance.

The only reason I'm late is because I
had a little traffic accident on the way

over here.

I got my doctor himself right here with
me.

Yes, that's right. We had to bring him
in an ambulance.

And they say doctors don't make house
calls.

All right, let's play through the roof.

Where's my lucky jacket?

Go ahead.

will be challenged by Krista Fallow from
Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan.

Krista, welcome to the show.

We can watch from in here.

Saul said to do the show live.

Well, you know the old saying, you gotta
have a gimmick.

Well, it's not such an old saying,
really.

It's from a show called Gypsy.

You know, I saw that show three times.

Once with Ethel Merman, once with Angela
Lansbury, and once with Tyne Daly.

Not bad.

Oh, it's a great show.

No, I mean if it was a question, you
would have all the answers. Start the

clock.

The subject is pseudonyms. Mark Twain
was.

Samuel Clemens.

The mystery writer, Ross McDonald.

That's a tough one.

Kenneth Millar.

Kenneth Millar.

The novelist, George Eliot.

That's Mary Ann Evers, I think.

And Saudius has got asthma and hater all
the time? Only when he's nervous.

But he's killing us.

Winning too much money? Our
statisticians assured us that no one

past the fourth round.

And he's way past?

Way, way past.

Who was the original drummer for the
Beatles?

Well, everybody knows that. Pete Best.

Pete Best!

You know, you really should try out for
the show.

Well, who wants to see a know -it -all
doctor?

I think you'd be very sympathetic.

They don't know it.

Thirty -five seconds left on the clock.

Contestants, we're back.

The subject is the Great War.

Who was assassinated and what city to
provoke the First World War?

Archduke Ferdinand in Sarajevo. I knew
that.

An excuse to start the war.

On what date was a peace treaty signed
that ended World War I?

Armistice Day.

November 11th, 1918.

You know, he's using that thing way too
much. You could save him for himself.

Play against him, you'd win.

We're running out of time.

November 11th, 1918.

Right again.

Next question.

What was the international organization
that brought together two opposing

factions?

That's the final buzzer. He's done it
again.

Getting out of the booth.

Saul Singer, you've just won half a
million dollars. Now, you know what that

means. You're way up in the air. From
here on out, each round is worth $100

,000.

Let's play, Drew.

Whoa.

Hold those runaway horses there, Saul.
Let's think about this for a minute.

Are you really going to put half a
million on the line?

You don't get off that easy.

Saul, I produced this game.

I host this game because I like making
people rich. Now, you're rich.

All you've got to do is walk away.

If only I could walk away, Drew.

Roll away, then.

I'm not done with you yet.

Excuse me.

Hello? Excuse me?

No accident.

That's the answer. What's the question?

Had the van been tampered with?

That was the question you were going to
ask.

You always answer before you hear the
question.

You're a detective.

Detectives are predictable.

Now you're going to tell me what I'm
thinking.

I'm a regular salt singer. Hey.

You ever notice how first he buzzes,
then he thinks about the question?

That's how we win.

You starting to be a contestant?

What's the matter? You think grease
monkeys aren't smart?

I never said that.

And don't tell me that's what I was
thinking. On top of which, it does not

a genius to compete. I mean, all they do
is test you for how many useless pieces

of trivia you've got stuck in your head.

I agree with you. Now, can we talk about
Saul Singer's breaks and not his

performance? Okay.

All right. The way the modification
works is this.

The hand control is wired to the
accelerator and the brakes. This is done

paraplegics, amputees, MS victims. Got
it. Only in this case, the center rod

loosened.

Loosened, not severed. No. If it was
severed, he would have never made it out

his driveway.

The way this baby was rigged, Saul would
have never known what was wrong until

he was cruising at full speed.

So someone wanted him to crash.

And he is right!

If I was a detective, which I'm not, I'd
ask Softfinger who it was who didn't

want him to get wherever it was.

Answer, the network.

I'm going to break the bank.

That may not be a joke.

Aren't these shows supposed to be cheap
entertainment?

They're also supposed to get ratings.

I'm a celebrity, Lieutenant.

A certified cerebral geek.

Thanks to me, the show is number one.

Forgive me for asking, but how did you
end up paralyzed?

I can't answer that question.

Why not?

Because I don't know what happened. I
was up in Franklin Canyon trying to list

the red -breasted canyon warbler.

Is that what we're hearing now?

He's a waterfowl from the Morro Bay
estuary, taped back in December of 96,

still had legs.

And Franklin Canyon?

I'd set up my tape recorder.

I was crossing the road on the way back
to my car. Next thing I knew, lying in

the hospital, paralyzed from the waist
down.

I'm sorry.

According to the police, the driver of
the car wasn't.

What was his story?

He didn't stick around to tell one.

As best they can reconstruct it, the son
of a bitch hit me, took off, left me to

be found by a park ranger six hours
later.

That's terrible.

Terrible? You want to know what's
terrible?

If I'd have made it to the hospital
right away, There's a good chance I'd be

walking today.

You know, these two accidents may well
be related.

I don't believe so.

Why not?

Because that was over a year ago. Why
would anybody wait a year to try to kill

me? Besides, I saw the police reports.

They did a thorough investigation.

LAPD came up as empty as me.

You're a winner.

It's your favorite contestant.

Jesus, are you out of your mind?

You know better than to be calling me on
my cell.

I'm playing a dangerous enough game as
this is. Do you want to end up in jail?

Oh, it's not my jail time you should be
worried about. The police were here

telling me what happened to my van.

When is enough enough with you?

When I say so.

All right, you know what, Saul?

Just give me a number.

How much more do you have to win?

You know, Bubba, I had a number, a nice
little figure in my head.

But after that little accident you
caused yesterday, it's double.

Oh, yeah?

Well, maybe I'll stop feeding you the
answers before each show.

Let the television audience see what a
genius you really are. Yeah, and maybe

I'll tell that same audience just how it
is I've been winning and why.

Mark, I can't believe that you turned
down through the roof. I would probably

blow the first question. Are you
kidding?

I don't know. I sure wouldn't want to
play against Salt Singer.

Yes, me. I think that's an arrogant man.

He's smart. There's nothing wrong with
being smart. Smart? He's risking a half

million dollars.

He sounds so smart to me.

Guys, just watch. Salah's going to go
all the way to a million. Five more

to go.

Five more rounds? I don't think so. I
know what I'd do.

Yeah, quit.

You know all in my head.

Salah's no quitter. Cut.

What actor named himself after a popular
actress who named herself after a

famous comedian?

I'll repeat the question.

What popular actor named himself after a
popular actress who named herself after

a famous comedian?

Saul, your time is running out.

We'll be right back after this message.

Get him out of there. Get him out of
there. Get him out.

Get him out.

Hurry up. Go. Go. Hurry. Go.

Hurry.

He's dead.

What?

Death was due to acute respiratory
failure, apparently brought on by his

asthmatic condition.

No foreign substances in the body?

Mm -mm. Not even metoproteranol.

That's the main ingredient in his asthma
medicine.

Not only was it absent from his blood
work, it wasn't even in his bronchial

secretion. I have to deduce that the
inhaler was empty.

You think maybe it was tampered with?

No, there was no obvious tampering. It
was empty.

I'd have to say that Salsinger died of
natural causes.

Two days after his car was sabotaged?

Well, coincidences do happen, Mark.

I tell you, this guy had a lot of books
about birds, huh?

Teeth, too.

He played them instead of music.

Amazing. Actually, I thought it was
pretty weird.

Look at these.

This guy was crazy about birds.

You know, it's funny. For a guy who knew
something about everything, he doesn't

have any history books. He doesn't have
any encyclopedias. Yeah, not even a

dictionary. That guy was a real genius.

Maybe he just boned up by using the
Internet.

I don't know. I think he had one of
those photographic memories.

Then why would he need an electronic
organizer?

Yeah, the first two numbers don't have
any names associated with them.

Uh -huh.

Probably to hide who they are from
prying eyes.

I don't think that he needed the names.
I think he saw the numbers and he knew.

Why don't we find out who these numbers
belong to the old -fashioned way?

You've reached Valleybrook Investments.
Enter your pin number.

You're a winner. You've reached the
personal cell phone of Drew McIntyre.

the right message and I shall personally
call you back.

Dr. Sloan, so nice to see you again.

What changed your mind about being on
our show?

All my colleagues insisting what good
publicity it'd be for the hospital.

Well, you'll have to thank them for me.
You're going to make a terrific

contestant. Thank you.

Drew, you remember Dr. Sloan, don't you?

Oh, right. Saw Singer's physician.

God, what a tragedy.

You know, the autopsy was performed at
Community General where I practice.

So what really happened? Was it the
inhaler?

What makes you say that?

Oh, I...

I'd read somewhere that it's quite
dangerous to use them too often. Yeah,

true, but Saul's inhaler was empty.

Well, that's because he kept taking hits
off it.

That or somebody tampered with it.

That's not possible.

Well, all you'd have to do is keep
pumping until all the medication was

Well, sure, but to do that, someone
would have needed access to the inhaler

before the show.

Didn't Saul carry his inhaler in his
sports...

Seen me, I saw some young lady give it
to him on the air. Saul's lucky blue

jacket. Which we kept under 24 -hour
guard by a bonded security agent.

Isn't that a little extreme?

No, we're very security conscious here
through the roof. The network watches us

like a hawk. We have to be like Caesar's
wife.

Above suspicion.

That'd be a good question for... Oh, I
can't suggest questions, can I?

No, not if you're going to be a
contestant.

You're going to be a contestant? My
idea.

Dr. Sloan is just what we need.

Well, in that case, it's nice to meet
you.

Oh, it's not appropriate for the
producer and the contestant to have any

before the show. Oh, network rules, huh?

Actually, federal law. I could go to
jail.

Oh. What, don't you do some kind of a
pre -show interview?

No.

That's Savannah's department.

Uh, Drew?

You know, Saul was absolutely positive
the car that hit him did so by accident.

Oh, he said that in the autopsy, did he?

No, actually, he told my son, who was
the police detective, who investigated

Saul's second accident.

And he was a little bit surprised. He
thinks there's a connection between the

two incidents.

Savannah, did you know Dr. Sloan's son
was investigating Saul's death?

Oh, I didn't disqualify myself. No, not
at all. Your connection is with Mr.

Singer, not the show.

I don't know. Savannah will test you,
Doctor.

Just like any other contestant.

You'd be surprised how few professionals
make the first cut.

Now, we're going to play a trial version
of the game.

You both know the rules, so get used to
being in the booth. We want you to make

a good impression.

You have to wait for me to ask the
questions, Stewie, okay?

Okay.

All right.

The purchase of what landmass was
referred to as Seward's Folly?

That's Alaska.

Not bad.

According to his manservant, how many
Italian women did Don Giovanni seduce?

1 ,003.

It's a chorus to a song. You're doing
great, Dr. Sloan.

Okay, which of the following is not a
British pop band?

Portisette, Radiohead, Propellerheads,
Bebhead.

That time you stop asking old guy
questions.

And the answer is?

Propellerheads.

No, I'm sorry.

Dr. Sloan, you have a chance to answer
this question.

How did you know that?

Lucky guess.

Ladies and gentlemen, and now, here's
your host for

Through the Roof, Drew McIntyre!

Our next contestant on Through the Roof
will

be Dr.

Mark... Sloan of Community General
Hospital.

Dr. Sloan, I'm afraid you haven't been
entirely forthcoming with us.

No, I think I've been completely
truthful.

Perhaps a trifle overly modest then.

My associate just informed me. You're
not only a doctor, but you're also a

police consultant.

Oh, no, that's just something I do from
time to time.

You're not going to believe this, folks.
In fact, I had a hard time believing

this. This man.

has solved over now, now what is it?

150 murders.

Wow.

Thank you. If I were to say solved, I
would say helped out a little. Now, you

wouldn't happen to be hot on the trail
of a killer right now, would you, Doc?

Well, you never know.

You never do know what we're going to be
asking you. So, Dr. Mark Sloan, let's

play.

is musical comedy.

What real -life incident inspired the
musical Bye Bye Birdie?

Elvis Presley being inducted into the U
.S. Army.

I always liked that show.

Let's see if you like this one.

What's the night rental on the Biltmore
garage?

A thousand dollars.

Or like they said in Guys and Dolls, a
grand.

Right you are.

Okay, folks. Now, our contestants don't
know this, but they're tied.

And time is running out. This could be
the $50 ,000 question.

All right, contestants, we're back.

What was the phone number of Judy
Holliday's love interest in Bells Are

It was a song.

And his number is Beachwood45789.

And that's not right.

Dr. Sloan, do I need to repeat the
question for you?

I'm in love with a man. Plaza 04433.

Anything.

And that's the final buzzer. Get him out
of there. We've got a new winner.

Tune in next time to see whether Dr.
Sloan busts through the roof.

If you'd like to play through the roof
or be a member of our...

It's called 1 -800 -555 -7767. Can you
hear what we're saying?

No, our mics are off. Oh, good. There's
something I've been meaning to ask you.

Can you tell me how Saul's saying I've
got to hold your cell phone?

Son of a gun.

He must have got it from one of those
damn services. I've had the mobile

changed three times since the show
became a hit. Oh, I see.

Would he be disqualified if he called
you?

Definitely. Then how do you explain the
three -minute phone call the phone

company recorded from Saul's house to
your cell phone the day before he died?

I can't.

After Saul's first accident, $5 ,000 was
deposited in his investment account

every month.

Oh?

It stopped right after he started
winning money on this show.

Dr. Sloan, I'm beginning to wonder if
you didn't become a contestant on this

show under false pretense.

Time's up.

We'll play again tomorrow.

And if your son has any more increase,
he can call my attorney.

Here you go.

Did I look as nervous as I felt up
there?

Oh, Mark, you were fantastic.

I tell you one thing, I know why Saul
was mopping his brow.

It's hot in that booth.

Well, don't they have any type of
ventilation?

Well, yeah, they do, but they turn it on
and off all through the show.

There's still one thing that I don't
understand.

How did Drew know that Saul would have
an attack?

That's because you don't watch the show,
Steve.

For a guy who knew all the answers, Saul
was pretty nervous. It was part of his

charm. You know, stress can be a real
trigger for asthma.

You know, I have a question.

If Saul's inhaler was in his jacket
pocket, And his jacket was under such

security, how did Drew empty the
medication?

If I knew the answer to that one, I
would stop playing this dumb game and

with my life.

And win fewer dollars.

I hate to make things more difficult
than they already are, but I did talk to

the detectives that did the
investigation on that hit -and -run in

Canyon. Yeah?

All the skid marks show indications of a
drunk driver.

Now, whoever paralyzed Saul may have
been criminal after the fact, but it was

not an intentional act.

I'm Sarah Finch, the biscuit lady.

Birders of Southern California.

Oh, right. Yes, thanks for coming in.
Please, sit down.

I take it you knew Saul Singer.

Oh, every birder knew Saul.

His field recordings are the single
greatest collection of bird songs in the

western United States.

I was hoping you came across them in his
closet.

As a matter of fact, they did.

That's a relief.

You have to ask, how did you know he
kept those tapes in his closet?

Saul wasn't just my vice chair.

He was my fiancé.

Before the accident, that is.

Only two things in the world mattered to
Saul.

Those field recordings and... intimate
matters.

Nothing to be sorry about.

I sat by his bedside every day and every
night, listening to him go on and

on and raving and raving. Can you recall
the nature of these ravings? How could

I ever forget?

Saul kept going on and on about the
blooty bird.

I'm not a birder, but I've never heard
of a blooty bird.

Who has?

It doesn't exist.

When Saul regained consciousness, I
asked him what in heaven's name was he

thinking of?

He hadn't a clue.

Don't you think that's odd?

Very.

Here's your jacket, Dr. Sloan. You do
the wardrobe for all of the contestants,

do you?

Actually, I started out as Mr.

McIntyre's wardrobe assistant.

Then when Mr. Singer came on the show
with his lucky jacket, I took care of

that. I couldn't show favorites.

One thing led to another.

I see.

Drew, I mean, Mr.

McIntyre, he has a vision, a vision for
the show.

He wants it to be as classy as he is.

You must have noticed that our people
look better than they do in those other

quiz programs.

Yeah.

All set? We're on in five minutes.

Okay. Okay, just this way here. All
right. Would you need a makeup chair?

All right.

You know, I really never realized how
much work goes into these productions.

You should talk to the writers
sometimes.

Well, I can't do that.

No, that's true.

You all set? Thank you. Fabulous.

Thank you. Okay. I'm just going to
shuffle on this way over here. You know,

was noticing this booth before. Was it
constructed just for handicap access?

That's right.

Well, I know you tried to watch costs on
things like this. Wasn't it expensive?

Very. We even had to install a hydraulic
lift.

Oh. And as producer, Mr. McIntyre didn't
object to that.

Well, actually, this booth was Drew's
idea. He wanted to expand the contestant

base for the show. It all seemed like a
dream come true.

Have you seen Mr. McIntyre?

Were you in charge of Mr. McIntyre's
car?

I wash it for him.

Hey, he's a man.

You always got to do favors for the man.

I had always believed in the competency
of the Los Angeles Police Department.

What's wrong?

Those tapes are blank.

Ten years' work erased.

All of them?

Everyone.

Then it wasn't an accident.

I am so mad I could spit.

Oh, believe me, I'm going to look into
this. No, no, I'm not mad at you. I'm

at Saul.

He sent those northern birders, those
snobby northern birders, a complete set

copies. Now I'm going to have to beg.

Well, save your pride, Miss Finch. We're
going to want to listen to those tapes

ourselves. As a matter of fact, I've got
a civilian volunteer.

Biscuit sent the knock bees.

That would be the Northern California
birders? Yeah, they sent everything

for tape 56, so I checked the originals
from Saul's house.

I thought those were all blank.

Erased, but the tape was still there.

Tape 56 was recorded in Franklin Canyon
on July 16, 1998.

July 16, wasn't that the night of Saul's
first accident?

Exactly.

Hey, hey, Mark, Mark, Mark, Mark.

Hey, boss.

Well,

most of them take it for granted, I
know. But you know, if you really pay

attention... Did you know there was a
thing called a blooty bird?

Stumped, Doc.

Well, actually, stumped me, too, and I
checked and found out there's no such

thing as a blooty bird. But still, there
it is on the tape recorded by Saul up

there in the canyon.

Saul Singer recorded a non -existent
bird. Well, in the manner of speaking.

know, the police always survey all the
repair shops whenever there's a serious

hit -and -run accident.

Not one garage reported anything that
night.

So we've got a non -existent repair to
go with the non -existent bird.

Maybe not.

The gentleman to whom I was just
speaking out there said that he repaired

bumper on your car at about that time.

Blue Thunderbird. Blue Keybird.

Car's red.

Yeah, it is now, but he said he
repainted it.

I have a feeling if the police strip off
that red paint, they'd find a blue coat

underneath.

If you'll excuse me, Doc.

I've got some show business to attend
to.

Whoa.

What on the right... They are killing us
out there. Killing us.

First, Salt Singer, and now Dr. Sloan. I
mean, what is the matter with you

people? This is supposed to be a cheap
show.

Nobody's supposed to get past the fourth
round. Nobody.

I want harder questions.

Can your little minds begin to
comprehend that? Harder questions. Thank

That's right.

That's right. That's right. Okay.

The subject is baseball.

In what ballpark did the Dodgers play
their most World Series game?

Oh, doctor?

You may have met your match.

Well, the Dodgers won more World Series
in Los Angeles.

But I'm betting that they played more
games at Eppert's Field.

And that's a bad bet.

Doctor, do I need to repeat the
question?

No. It's a trick question.

It was Yankee Stadium.

The man knows everything.

Well, not really everything. It's a
question they ask on the scoreboard at

Dodger Stadium all the time.

Well, take me out to the ballgame,
Doctor.

All right.

Let's see if you can get this one.

Who was the only Major League player to
wear the uniform of all four modern -day

New York baseball teams?

It's got to be Casey Stengel.

He played for the Giants and the
Dodgers, and he managed the Yankees and

Mets. Dr. Sloan, you're batting 1 ,000.

Moving westward.

In the famous Chicago Cub infield of
Tinker to Evers to Chance, who played

base?

That's another trick question.

You don't want to answer? I can give it
to your opponent.

I said it was a trick question. I didn't
say I couldn't answer it. All right.

Okay.

Joe Tinker was at shortstop.

Johnny Evers was at second base.

Frank Chance was on first base.

Third base didn't figure into the double
play combination, see? But that player

on third base was just as good as the
rest of them. His name was Harry

Steinfeld.

Oh, um... Well, we just can't get you
out, can we, Doctor?

He's right, ladies and gentlemen.

And he's done it again.

You know, I didn't think anyone could
get that last question.

Well, Dr. Cullen just keeps on coming.

Doctor, our audience adores you. You
should see yourself.

Well, I thought the show was live.

Oh, it is, but we have to edit it for
syndication.

Oh, thank you. Do you take anything?

Yes, sweetheart, please.

Does that mean you have copies of
everybody's performance?

Yes, we do.

What artist has won the most Grammy
Awards?

Nice question.

You'd expect a pop singer, but it's not.

The man with the most Grammys is Sir
George Salty.

Can you freeze that, then? Sure.

Now, can you bring up a picture of Saul
from another program?

Do you want the same kind of close -up?

Yeah, if you can, and leave that one up
there.

Yeah.

Now, what about that last question, the
one just before he died?

What popular actor named himself after a
popular

actress who named herself after a famous
comedian?

Yeah, right there.

That's interesting.

No kidding. You know, no one ever got
that.

Oh, the, uh, well, you know, Michael
Keaton named himself after Diane Keaton,

who had named herself after Joseph
Francis Buster Keaton.

I was a big Buster Keaton fan.

But that's not what's interesting here.

Ben, do you still have the evidence bag
with Salsinger's clothes in it? Yeah,

what's that?

My dad said he always had a pocket
handkerchief with him when he appeared

program. Right. Well, I checked all of
his foreign sources, but I didn't see

handkerchief. Well, maybe you got stuff
down inside the breast pocket. I don't

think so.

Why not?

Because this breast pocket has been sewn
shut.

Doctor, you may be winning a lot of
money, but I think you are great for the

show. Well, thank you.

If there is anything I can do for your
wardrobe.

Not that you are not perfectly dressed.

I mean, not that you don't class up the
show.

Actually, I didn't want to see you about
my wardrobe. I wanted to ask you about

Saul Singer's lucky jacket.

Oh.

You know, I watched all the shows that
Saul was on, and all but the last one,

had a pocket handkerchief.

Oh.

But the one he was wearing the night he
died, this pocket was sewn shut.

Oh.

It wasn't the same jacket, was it?

I feel so guilty.

About what?

You're right. That wasn't Saul's lucky
jacket.

Did somebody sneak past the guards and
switch it?

Oh, no.

Is that what you think?

Oh, no, not at all.

We just had an accident.

What kind of an accident?

Oh, the sprinkler system in the wardrobe
room went off somehow, and Saul's

jacket was ruined.

It shrank three sizes.

What'd you do about it?

I went right to Drew.

He told me to go out and buy another
jacket. You know, identical like.

Drew swore that Saul would never know
the difference, but I knew.

I knew it wasn't the lucky jacket.

Don't you see?

Why don't you tell me?

I thought that unfortunate man was going
to lose.

Go home without any money.

He'd never know that he lost because he
wasn't wearing the really lucky jacket.

I just never thought that new jacket
would be so unlucky he would die in it.

Well, I don't think it was the jacket
that killed him, Charmaine.

He went from the guy with all the
answers to dead.

I call that really bad luck.

Well, one more question.

What about the inhaler?

Oh, that was the right inhaler, all
right.

Drew gave it to me himself.

I put it in the new jacket before I gave
it to him.

You wanted to see me?

Need your wardrobe rearranged?

You told him about the jacket, didn't
you?

Dr. Sloan?

He told me.

I was embarrassed at first, but, you
know, I think it did me good to finally

talk. Yeah?

Well, you didn't do the show any good.

Oh, no.

Dr. Sloan said that jacket had nothing
to do with Saul's death.

He's only interested in the inhaler.

Thank you, Charmaine.

You can go now.

That's a first.

Yeah.

I've got some very important business to
attend to.

Sorry to call you out on a Saturday.

I just thought we'd better set some
things straight.

Oh, we really don't have that much to
discuss, do we? I was going to walk away

after the next session anyway.

You want to know how Saul got his
answers?

Why don't you take a look in Saul's
special little booth?

I had it brought back on stage just so I
could demonstrate.

Oh, and pay particular attention to the
video screen.

Oh, where you show the contestants the
questions. That's how you did it.

You know, for a man who solved all those
murders, you're way too trusting a

soul. You can't get away with this,
Drew. Oh, really?

I'm playing a new game, Doc. It's called
You Bet Your Life.

And the first question is, what is the
drug that collapses the respiratory

system, but that is metabolized by the
body even after death?

Any of the nerve gases used in chemical
warfare.

Sarin, for example.

Yes, an excellent example.

Now, imagine what would happen if just a
teensy -weensy little bit of this drug

were to, oh, I don't know, say, flow
through your boost ventilation system.

You know, do you have a very distinctive
voice?

I'll bet you when Saul Singer listened
to his tape of Franklin Canyon, he heard

more than birds.

Probably heard the accident that
crippled him, and probably heard you,

Yeah? Hmm.

Then why didn't he just go to the cops?

Oh, he didn't want the insurance company
to pay. He wanted you to pay.

He wasn't above blackmail, was he? What
do you know? Right again.

Were you drunk when you hit him?

As a skunk on moonshine, Doc.

You know, I almost got away with it,
too, if you hadn't come up with the idea

having the show pay for your blackmail.

Yeah, call that a business deduction.

Most people would call it they're
murdered.

Yeah, well, too bad in this game you
can't win.

You're dead, Dr. Sloan.

Now, how long before Saren takes effect?

I'm worried a few minutes.

Right again.

I guess you deserve the booby prize.

I just want you to tell me how you
killed Saul.

So stupid.

I put an empty inhaler in the guy's new
jacket and watched while nature took its

course. Ooh, difficult.

Sounds like an amazing joke to me, Drew.

Yeah, well, too bad you can't use it.
You never read me my rights.

Wrong answer.

See, you weren't under arrest, but now
you are.

My father's not entirely trusting. We
checked out the ventilation system

you arrived.

That was a very unlucky jacket,
Charmaine.

Intentionally unlucky jackets.

But it's all there on videotape on your
confession.

I guess this is the end of Through the
Roof.

I'm not so sure about that.

Ladies and gentlemen, would you welcome
the new host of Through the Roof,

Charmaine DuFour!

Sweet. I'm so excited.

You know, we've had some real tragedy on
the show.

But that is all behind us.

And the reason is because of this really
terrific man.

Our defending champion, Dr.

Mark Sloan.

So what's going to be, Doctor?

You have won $150 ,000.

Are you going to risk everything, or are
you going to walk away?

Well, I'm not the greedy type.

So you're leaving us a winner.

What are you going to do with all that
money?

Well, half of the money is going to go
to the Community General Pediatric Age

Unit. That's great.

Wow, is that great.

So tell us, what are you going to do
with your share?

New car?

No, no, no. The other half is going to
go into breast cancer research.

That's the best answer I've ever heard.
