Thank you.

This is the story of Walter
Nebuchadnezzar.

Doing what he likes best, fighting crime
in the streets.

You see, Walter's a policeman.

Unfortunately, the chief doesn't want
Walter on the streets.

Captain, get back to your cage, boy.

Now! So Walter must fight crime in his
own way, in the computer room.

That's where he's an expert.

Fortunately for me, Walter's advanced
knowledge of electronics led him to

experiment with what is called a
hologram.

That's a very fancy word for a three
-dimensional picture that, when

can be made to look real, sound real.

As a matter of fact, given enough power,
it can even be made to feel real.

That's kind of what got me into this
world.

My name is Auto Man.

You must be Walter Nebica.

How did you know that? It's on the
programming you fed into my system. I

say, Walter, you're very good. Very good
indeed.

I look wonderful.

If you do say so yourself.

You programmed me to be honest.

But tell me, why did you call me Auto
Man? It means that you're the world's

first truly automatic man.

You can do anything because you're not
real.

Oh, but I am. I'm as real as you are,
just different.

And thanks to you, perfect.

Nobody's perfect, Auto Man.

That's not true, Walter.

You've programmed me to observe other
people and do whatever they can do as

as they can do it.

Jimmy Connors playing tennis, John
Travolta dancing.

In fact, on a scale of one to ten, think
of me as an eleven.

I've created a monster.

No, what Walter really created was a
wonderful force for good.

Auto Man.

That's me.

Rainer, I have the microchip.

And all the names you wanted.

Do you have it with you?

2 Mason Street, 1 Adam 32, please
respond.

1 Adam 32 responding to sound alarm.

Hey, there's somebody over there.

One at them, 32. We've blown a tire.

You're on soon. Yeah, tell me.

Working late at the office. I didn't get
home until just before I called you.

What about you, Mrs. Tan?

I was with friends from my bridge club.

I got here right after Dennis.

And you figured out what's missing?

All my jewelry, except for what I'm
wearing.

The good silver, it's all gone. Yeah,
well, don't forget my ring.

I hope you have adequate insurance
coverage.

Lieutenant, it's not the dollars.

My wife and I have lost items of great
sentimental value. Mrs. Officer Nebaker

has been working with me on a string of
burglaries just like this one.

Yes, all with no forced entry.

Your doors and windows were all locked.
All of them were very cautious people.

Yes, well, so are these burglars, Mr.
Stanton. They are quick, they are

selective, and they don't leave clues.

Have either of you given your house key
to anyone recently?

Absolutely not.

This doesn't sound very reassuring.

Well, before we get a break in a case,
we don't like to raise hopes too high.

However, I can assure you that Officer
Nevercare, once he has taken down all of

the facts, will cross -reference them
with all of his other reports and have

answers on my desk first thing in the
morning.

I will?

I mean, I will.

First thing.

Now, look, Stanton.

You said you'd have the microchip. I've
got a problem. I had the chip in a ring,

and the ring's been stolen.

We had a deal.

The deal is still good as soon as I get
the ring back.

I don't give a damn about the ring.

I want that microchip.

How did I know it was going to be
stolen?

Well, find it or you're a dead man.

Morning, Kirsten.

You called me, Walter?

An hour ago.

Tough night, Walter?

Yeah, I didn't get any sleep.

I ran theft reports all night, trying to
find a common denominator.

All I could come up with is that three
of the 25 victims went to the same club

on the nights that they were robbed.

Three out of 25?

That seems like more than a coincidence.

Yeah, I thought so, too.

Especially considering that Zippers only
opened a couple of months ago, which is

about when these burglaries started.

I don't think I've ever heard of
Zippers.

It's a very elegant nightclub that
features male exotic dancers.

All male?

No women?

The women are all in the audience.

In fact, the only place the men are
allowed is on stage.

How fascinating, Walter. What women
really come to see is... Go on, Walter.

You know, maybe it's time I added the
chapter on the birds and the bees to

program. Walter, you underestimate
yourself.

Thanks to you, I'm already a whiz at
zoology.

Now, tell me how these animals figure
into all this.

Keep me posted.

Fontana says the guy has two, maybe
three hostages with him. What's he

A small arsenal.

Sorry to disturb you, Captain.

I just want to tell Lieutenant Curtis
that I think I've got a lead in that

string of burglaries.

Burglaries? You know what I have on my
hands here?

Well, it's going to have to wait.

Oh, but maybe it can't wait.

If it's that hard, why don't you run
with it yourself?

Three victims were patrons of the same
nightclub. I got a gunman threatening

multiple murder.

You want me to drop everything and
listen to a burglary lead. Get out of my

office right now, Nebuchadnezzar. You
hear what I'm saying?

Don't worry, Captain. I'll handle it
myself.

You'll do that.

Okay.

Did I just say?

Hmm.

I expected you an hour ago.

I'm ready to go.

Go where?

Our investigation of Zippers. How many
men did Captain Boyd give you?

Zelch.

Zelch? Is he that new fellow in Bunko?

They had their hands full at
headquarters today.

Boyd wants me to handle it alone.

No problem. All you really needed is me.

Unfortunately, Otto, you're the wrong
sex.

I beg your pardon?

Oh, what I need is a woman to get me
inside Zippers.

Why don't you just tell them you're a
policeman?

What if the management is involved?

Until I know more, I don't want to tip
my hand.

Very sound reasoning, Walter. I think
I'll give Roxanne a call.

Allow me.

You want to take me where?

Zippers.

I can't explain it now. I'll pick you up
in about 20 minutes.

Are you sure you wouldn't like a backup?

Thanks, Otto. But the last thing I want
to do is attract a lot of attention.

All right. If you're sure that's what
you want.

I'm sure.

See you when I get back.

Cursor, I need something a little less
flashy.

What does it matter where I'm going?

Zippers? Don't be silly, Cursor. Why
would I want to go there?

Now, how about those threads?

All right, all right. You can come with
me.

Good evening, ladies.

Hi, Annie.

Enjoy the show.

Will try to.

Can I park it for you? No, thanks.

It's a little temperamental.

Most places are a little tight, you
know.

Take it slow.

You bet.

The Mercedes, right?

You'll like this one.

We got ourselves a Mercedes owner.

Ah, lives in Brentwood.

Good potential.

I'll check it out tomorrow.

So what do we got going down for
tonight?

The Green Porsche's house.

Staked it out last night.

No dogs and no alarms at times.

Hey, gorgeous.

You the guy Rudy sent over?

Uh, that's right.

You know how to dance?

No, on second thought, who cares?

Dressing room down the hall to the
right.

Thank you. Uh -huh.

So

what's

your gimmick?

I'm Robin Hood.

Well, it's amazing they still haven't
caught up with you yet.

Everybody's got a different costume.

It drives the women out of their minds,
fulfills their fantasies.

What sort of fantasies?

Well, I don't know about theirs, pal,
but mine is a hundred screaming women

begging me to take it off.

So what's your thing going to be?

I suppose you could say my thing is
electricity.

Electrician, huh?

I'll tell Lillian.

Once you're inside, you can let me in
through the side door.

Gotcha. I really appreciate your helping
me out like this, Roxanne. We all have

to make sacrifices now and then.

Have you ever been to one of these
places before?

Are you kidding?

Nice to see you again, Roxanne.

Maybe once.

You better brace yourself.

What are you talking about?

Just follow me.

Yes.

A regular Gypsy Rose Lee. Come on, let's
get out of here.

Otto, you are one of the most exciting
men I've ever met.

Are you busy right now?

Yes, yes, he is. Sorry.

Well, later would be just fine.

He be right. I'm staying at the Dunsmara
room, 308.

I can't believe she did that.

Neither can I, Walter.

How is she going to get into her room?

Listen, they're calling my name. Don't
you dare!

Who am I to say no?

Do you mind if I have the keys to your
car?

I think this mission's been aborted.

Are you, uh, angry with me, Walter? No,
no, no, no, no, I'm not angry.

Furious, yes, but not angry.

I've been waiting for you for 20
minutes.

I couldn't help you, Walter.

Five encore and $347.

Here, take it. It's for you.

I don't want it.

This is exactly the reason I left you
behind.

You've disrupted my entire
investigation.

Would it help if I told you I've
uncovered the connection to all those

burglaries? No, it would not help. When
did you go... You did what?

I watched one of the valets take a house
key from one of the patrons and make a

wax impression.

Otto, are you sure?

Absolutely. I even overheard him and one
of the dancers talk about a burglary

tonight. Well, that does put things in
slightly a different light.

Then you're not furious anymore?

No.

Just angry.

There they go, Walter.

How did that Mercedes key turn out?

Find a night neck sleeping on its own.
We'll see how it turned out.

Unless they're taking home movies. We've
got ourselves a bust.

Freeze! Police!

Freeze!

Don't shoot again, Walter. They're of no
use to us dead.

I don't know what those cops are
driving, but I can't shake them.

Going well, isn't it, Walter?

What are we doing now?

Planning their escape route. Ever see a
sheepdog herd sheep?

You lost him.

That I did.

How do you like it?

I call it auto -reverse.

Quick, make a right.

That's it, Boris. Turn right.

Now, I think we lost him. I don't.

Nothing like the thrill of the open
road, eh, Walter? Oh, yeah.

These cops are nuts, man.

Cursor, I could use a little help.

About 40 feet worth.

They don't know it, Walter, but they're
about to turn themselves in.

Thanks, Otto.

But I think you better get going. Glad
to help, Walter. See you later.

Anybody

here

order two hot robbers to go?

It was a clean bus, Captain.

We also recovered stolen property from
their prior jobs.

I suppose you think congratulations are
now in order, right?

Well, I do, too.

Nice going, kid.

Does this mean I can go out in the field
more often?

Now push it, Nebbish.

Nebaker.

Whatever.

Mr.

Rainer's residence.

Yes, I'd like to speak to Mr. Rainer,
please.

Please. Thank you.

Mrs. Stanton, the police picked up those
men who robbed me. I'm going down to

the police station right now and get
that ring.

Why don't you meet me at my house in one
hour?

Right.

I don't see the ring anywhere.

Captain Boyd's out in the field. He
asked me to make sure you saw everything

recovered from those burglars.

Yes, yes. There are jewelry here, the
crystal, the silver, everything but the

ring.

Unfortunately, that wasn't one of the
items we recovered.

Now, how could that be? You found
everything else.

Oh, I'm glad to see you. Mr. Stanton,
this is Walter Neviker. He was the

arresting officer. Yes, we've met.

Is there a problem, Mr. Stanton?

There won't be when you recover the rest
of my belongings.

It is imperative I get that ring back.

Now, look, the men who robbed me are
going to make bail tonight.

I'll go and talk to them.

They'll know where the ring is.

You have until nine o 'clock.

I'll get it. You better.

Otherwise, I suggest to tell your wife
to shop for something in black.

I'm having second thoughts about giving
Stanton more time.

What do you have in mind?

Well, you and Victor can talk to the
burglar.

What about Stanton?

I see no need for a middleman.

Just tell him the plans have been
changed.

Officer Nibbiker, this is Dennis
Stanton.

I wonder, uh, could you come out to the
house?

Well, I, uh... I stole something from
work, and I think my life is in danger.

Thank you.

Hey, Joe, come on up.

This was no accident, Jack. He called me
less than an hour ago, telling me that

his life was in danger.

Then I arrive and find him at the bottom
of his swimming pool. All right, that

sounds like a mob hit.

Let's wait for the coroner's report
before we start calling it murder,

right? Whatever you call it, I know it's
tied up with that ring that was stolen

from him. Wait a minute, wait a minute.
How do you know that?

It's a feeling more than anything else.

Maybe the ring's the thing he stole from
work.

Maybe it'll leave the hunches to
homicide, huh, Wally?

How long does it take to run a profile
on one man?

Haste makes waste, Walter.

It seems your Mr. Stanton worked at an
interesting company.

B .E .K. Corporation, a communications
firm.

We're real close, Otto, but the pieces
don't fit together yet.

Why was he so concerned over that ring?

Perhaps the computers at B .E .K. may
hold the answer to that.

Can't you get the information from here?

I'm afraid not, Walter. It seems that B
.E .K.'s installed an elaborate

protection system to guard their
computers against outside taps.

If I were there, it'd be a piece of
cake.

All right, all right.

But I suggest you put on something a
little more discreet.

Very well.

Cursor?

Is

that

the only way you know how to drive this
thing?

Well, if you wanted me to go faster, why
didn't you just say so? No, please.

What a shame.

The little fellow's practically a
prisoner.

I think it likes you, Otto. He senses a
certain kinship.

Come on, Otto. We need to get
information.

See you later, my little friend.

We can't have that noisy pile of metal
tagging along behind us.

Gonna hurt his feelings.

That's ridiculous. Machines don't have
feelings.

Well, now you've done it.

Sit here.

There she is.

The Delilah 100.

She's beautiful, Walter.

I thought it was still in the
developmental stage.

If I'm not mistaken, this was the
prototype.

She's supposed to be state -of -the -art
in terms of security.

We'll see about that.

Delilah, you have quite a reputation.

Still, I'm sure we could work together
if we tried.

Access denied.

You didn't think I'd fall for that old
line, did you?

What is it, Otto?

It's her trap circuits.

Every time I enter the wrong code, she
sends me through a maze back to where I

began.

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

It's just that she's a worthy adversary,
that's all.

This should do it.

Access denied.

And I'm not even breathing hard.

Why don't you give up, Auto Man?

You'll never penetrate my memory.

Excuse me, Walter.

I'm going to have to go inside the
computer if I'm to avoid those trap

All right, just hurry it up. That guard
can walk in here any time.

Go ahead, Auto Man.

Give it your best shot.

Come on, Auto.

Come on!

Auto!

That's the alarm in Stanton's office.
Okay, let's go.

robot come to display.

Well, how did it get down here?

Otto, what happened? I'll tell you
later.

Come on, Otto.

Let's go.

Who turned him on?

I think we'd better merge.

Right.

What happened?

The battle with the computer.

It knocked the wind out of me, so to
speak.

I have the strength left to merge.

Come on.

Hey, that ain't no robot. Let's get him.

Did you see that?

I'm sure glad there's two of us.

Because they wouldn't believe one of us.

I don't know if I believe it myself.

I hope you learned something in there.
I'd sure hate to have gone through that

for nothing.

It was far from a wasted trip.

What do you know about the Federal
Witness Protection Program?

It gives new identities to people who
put their lives in jeopardy by

against organized crime.

That's what those bogus documents B .E
.K. deals in are for.

Not for giving new identities to
mobsters, but to the witnesses against

And all that information was on
Stanton's computer?

Not the new identities themselves, but
Delilah did finally break down and tell

me they were kept on a separate
microchip for security.

Stanton's ring.

It must have contained that microchip.

Stanton must have tried selling that
information to the mob.

Only he had the bad luck of having it
stolen out from under him in that

burglary.

Walter we've got to get that ring if
that list should fall into the wrong

a lot of innocent people might be killed
Those two robbers must still have the

ring. I'll have Jack track down one.

We'll go talk to the other

There's

no one home should we wait inside Might
as well.

Otto.

Are you okay?

Delilah certainly lived up to her name,
Walter.

I'm completely drained.

Yes, Lieutenant.

No, uh, Gary's not here.

What happened when he spoke to Stanley?

He's dead?

No, that won't be necessary.

Oh.

Backups won't be necessary, I'm sure.

I'll stay in touch.

I'm sorry, Walter.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to be
leaving you.

Your timing still leaves a lot to be
desired, Otto.

Lieutenant Curtis just found the other
burglar murdered.

I'll rejoin you here as soon as I can
replenish my energy supply.

So long, Otto.

You'll have to excuse us for busting in
on you like this, Gary.

Knocking eliminates the element of
surprise.

What do you want?

We got a little problem, Gary.

Recently, a friend of ours lost a ring
in a robbery.

He'd like to get it back.

Ring?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Your partner, Stanley, he came down with
a case of amnesia.

And we gave him a permanent cure.

It's written on his toe tag.

My boss is an impatient man, and so am
I.

Now, I want to know where that ring is.

Look, how about if we do a little back
scratching?

I'll deliver the ring, but only if you
take me to see your boss first.

What do you want with him?

I'd like to talk about a deal. Sit down.

I say we burn him right now.

You want to be the one to tell Mr.
Rainer we have two corpses and no ring?

Okay, slick face.

You just bought yourself a little more
time.

Come on.

I think I'll just stick around here and
see if I can find the ring. Might save

Mr. Rainer some money.

You wanted a deal? Let's hear it.

Well, if you're willing to kill for that
ring, I have to assume it's pretty

valuable.

I want a cut. A cut?

I'll give you a cut from ear to ear.

Do you want the microchip or not?

That depends how much it's going to cost
me to get it.

Well, all I want's a little money.

How much?

$25 ,000.

And cash?

I don't consider $25 ,000 a little
money.

I'll have to see the merchandise first.

First the money.

Then you get what you're after.

I don't have that much cash in the
house.

Then send for it.

I'll wait.

All right, get in here. Hey, I don't
want any trouble.

Who are you?

I live here.

You're Gary's roommate.

I'm Gary.

Who's the other guy?

What other guy?

If you're Gary, then where's that ring
you took out of Stanton's house?

Put that thing away and I'll take you to
that ring.

Where is it?

I hid it at a club I work at.

Zippers.

All right.

Let's go get it.

Yeah, sure, whatever you say.

That was Victor.

He says he found something interesting
at your house.

What?

The real Gary.

The one with the ring.

He says he's got it over at Zipper's.

Take care of him.

You're right.

Gary has the ring, but I've got the
microchip. That is what you're after.

Buck, you just saved yourself some lead.

For the time being.

Bring him with us.

We'll see who's lying.

Move.

What's he doing here?

He's one of the cops who busted me.

Cop?

Which one of you guys is a liar?

Give me that ring! All right! All right!

It's in the lamp.

That microchip's in that ring. You're
dead.

Hey, what's that? What's going on?

Someone's messing with the light. No!

He grabbed the ring.

Otto, you're just the person I wanted to
run into.

Nice work, Walter.

What are we doing?

Waiting for time, Walter.

I put a call in to Lieutenant Curtis. He
should be here any minute.

I feel ridiculous.

Let go, Walter.

Not all that bad.

I've trained most of my power.

That'll do it for me, Walter.

Here's what they were all after,
Lieutenant.

Better get that in the vault right away.

Right. I don't know if he's completely
disappeared.

No, but I'll be running into him in the
near future. You have a message for him?

You bet I do.

You tell that baby any time he wants a
job, he's got one waiting.

What are you doing here?

I wanted to hear how things turned out
in the Stanton case.

Professional interest.

Well, you'll be happy to know that the
DA's office just handed down murder

indictments against Rayner and his two
cronies. Well, that is good news,

More important, that list of government
witnesses is going to be under tighter

security than ever before. Even that
supercomputer at B .E .K. won't have

access. Ah, Delilah.

Well, I hope she takes it gracefully.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Speaking of women scorned, that lady
from Zippers called again.

She's still trying to get in touch with
you.

What did you tell her?

Well, I told her that you left the
country suddenly.

Something about a federal warrant.

Walter, you didn't. I had to do
something to discourage her.

She said there's been near riots for the
last couple of nights.

Everybody's been screaming for the
return of Otto the electrician.

Imagine that.

Yeah, I'd rather not.

Well, I must admit, it was an amusing
diversion.

Yeah, well, I'm glad you finally got
some perspective on it.

Oh, uh, hi, Walter.

You, uh, better hurry up and change,
Otto.

You promised you wouldn't keep those
ladies at Zipper's waiting.
