All language subtitles for Simon & Simon s01e03 Trapdoors

We're about to enter the third dungeon.

The dwarf goes first.

There's a strong gust of fetid wind and
the dwarf's torch blows out.

Giant blood -sucking spiders are falling
from the ceiling.

The elf and dwarf draw their swords and
run deeper into the dungeon.

Rolling for the dwarf.

The dwarf is dead. One of the spiders is
dragging his body deeper into the

dungeon.

Game's over. Bedtime.

Mom. Mom, come on.

You've been up late every night this
week.

But I didn't... No butts.

And no computers tonight, okay?

Okay.

Okay.

Good night. Good night.

It's him outside.

Right now?

Lafayette. Cut purse, pickpocket, and
master thief.

Goers again.

Plus four bills.

Check. Okay, look, at Del Mar.

Morning,

Rick!

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Is that hooligan bothering you again?

He doesn't bother me, Daddy.

I have an appointment with an A .J.
Simon.

Huh? A .J. Simon.

Oh, oh, well, step right on in.

Shut up, Marlowe. Don't growl at
customers.

Simon. Yeah.

My name is Scully.

Oh, A .J. Simon. Sweet.

You met my brother, Rick.

Now, what can we do for you, Mr. Scully?

I would like you to find someone for me.
A boy, 13 or 14 years old, thin, blonde

hair. He wears glasses.

I don't know his name, but he must live
around here because he rides his bike to

the bank.

What bank would that be?

First National. I'm the vice manager of
the local branch.

He never comes inside and makes his
withdrawals from the automated teller

the bank is closed about once a week.

If he's got an account of your bank,
obviously you have his name and address

file.

Well...

The name is Anthrax Vermillion, and the
address is care of general delivery.

Mr. Simon, let me be honest with you.
This boy has somehow gotten inside the

bank's computer system.

I don't know how, but he has opened a
phony interest -bearing checking

Funds are transferred into the account
and then out again. While the money is

the account, it earns interest.

Then he withdraws the interest.

I didn't know that was possible.

Well, it's not supposed to be possible.

Maybe he used one of those home
computers. I don't know.

Well, how much has he taken?

$740 .67.

That's all?

It's not how much.

It's the fact that he's doing it.

Mr. Simon, if I report this, the FBI
will get involved, and the kid will go

jail. He's just a kid. If I can find
him, find out how he's doing it, and get

him to stop, it's not the money.

I could write a check for my own
personal account to cover the loss. He

pay me back.

It's just that I don't think he realizes
what he's doing.

Besides, anybody that good with
computers, I could use him.

Probably give him a job.

Shut up, Marlowe.

Thank you very much.

You will send the bills to me personally
at home? Whatever you like. We'll be in

touch.

You know anything about computers?

I know they don't like me. Every time I
try to cash a check.

You might try putting some money in your
account.

Am I supposed to?

Well, it went perfect.

They fell for it.

The kid's not going to have any choice
in the matter. Either we'll scare him to

death...

How much are we going to get? How much
do you want, Doris?

$50 ,000? $100 ,000?

How about a million?

How about five million cash?

AJ, would you go get Marlo a can of dog
food?

Why should I do it? I did it yesterday
and the day before.

Yeah, but he's your dog.

Oh, come on, AJ. Just go get him a can
of liver chunks. He likes liver chunks.

Here.

I'll drink.

$196 .50 with tax.

$200.

$350 change.

Let me write a receipt.

I can spell your last name.

Terry... No.

M. Capital D.

Right. Give me your address again.

450 Chapman Street.

98.

That's a big help.

I got his dress.

Hi, Mom.

Hi, Terrence. Where you been? Went to
the computer store.

Bought an RS -232 interface.

Glad I asked.

Hello? Can I help you?

Yes, ma 'am.

My name is A .J. Simon.

I'm a detective.

Detective? Yes, ma 'am. I'd like to ask
you some questions, part of an

investigation.

Questions about what?

Are you from the police?

No, ma 'am. We're private investigators.

May we come in for just a moment,
please?

Sure. Thank you.

Where'd you get the badge?

Time store.

See you again in a second, Mom.

Carrie, unlock this door now.

These two men are from the bank.

You stole over $700.

$800. What did you do with it?

I gave $300 to school so we could have a
video game system in the rec room.

I bought the computer stuff.

I got the tire fixed on my bicycle.

I bought you a birthday present.

Is that supposed to make it all right? I
don't want a birthday present bought

with stolen money.

Don't you understand? It's against the
law. You're a criminal. I didn't steal

from anybody.

Not really.

All I do is collect interest on other
people's money. Oh.

I could have stolen a lot more if I
wanted to.

You are all I have in the world.

Are you crazy?

Mrs. McDaniels? Maybe you want to be a
criminal. Maybe you should go to jail.

McDaniels?

What Terry did was wrong, but I'm sure
there's a way we can straighten things

out here.

I could pay the money back. How?

Where are you going to steal it from to
give it back? I don't have $700.

Mrs. McDaniels, Terry can pay the money
back a little bit at a time. That isn't

what's important. What's important here
is that the bank wants to know how he

did this.

Now, I'm sure if Terry were to turn
himself in voluntarily...

I mean, I can't promise anything.

Why don't we arrange a meeting and see
what happens?

Okay?

We can set it up in our office for
tomorrow. Terry can give a

Don't worry about it, kid. It's going to
be all right.

What is this stuff, anyhow?

Fantasy game.

Trolls and trapdoors, angels and demons.

Like Dungeons and Dragons, only better.

Oh, yeah?

Show me how you play.

I read about trapdoors in a magazine, so
I decided to write one in.

I binary XOR my birthday, so when I get
on the line and enter the number... Do

you have any idea what you're talking
about? ...the program falls through the

trapdoor into my funds transfer
subroutine before going into the

trail.

I'm going to be honest with you, Terry,
I'm very impressed. Did you learn all

this from books?

No, I just played with the machine a
lot.

Where did you get the phone number that
links all the branch terminals with the

central computer?

From information.

You know, technically this is
impossible.

I think Terry just didn't realize that
and went ahead and did it anyway.

How would you like to work on a big
computer at the bank?

Are you serious?

Absolutely.

I want you to tell our systems analyst
everything you've told me so he can make

sure nobody ever does this again.

Great.

Do I have to pay the money back?

Sooner or later.

But I wouldn't worry about that if I
were you.

Anybody as good with computers as you
are is not going to have to worry about

earning money.

Bye. So long, Terry. You come by
sometime, we'll play angels and demons.

All right. Take care, Terry.

Well, send the bill to me? No, we
usually get paid on completion.

Well, that wasn't my understanding.

It's no problem.

We'll just put it in the mail to you.

Fine. Thank you. Sure.

What was that about?

That guy's just a little too nice for
me.

You're a cynic.

You know, when we get paid for this, we
ought to get a computer for the office.

Tara, I was thinking.

Why don't we go over to the bank right
now? You can put your bike in the back

the car.

Well, my mom told me I had to be home by
four.

We'll give her a call if she won't mind.

Put the computer in the trunk, put the
bike in the back. What do you say?

Okay.

She's got to stop by a friend's house on
the way.

Find her and me?

Margie, this is Ann.

Is Terry over there?

Have you seen him this afternoon?

He was supposed to be home at four.

I've had dinner ready for hours.

Oh, okay. Well, thanks.

Mr. Simon, this is Ann McDaniel, Terry
McDaniel's mother.

Terry didn't come home this afternoon.

Is there any more gravy, Mom?

Do you still remember the way to the
kitchen?

I went to the PTA mother's reunion last
week.

Ah.

Have fun?

Mm -hmm.

Good.

Did you know that Tom Martin is a
neurosurgeon in Buffalo?

Mm -hmm.

Dropped his cookies the first day we hit
the frogs in biology.

Bobby Lovejoy's VP for marketing,
Granite Corporation.

Bobby Lovejoy. Sat behind me in algebra.

Funny. Always had the same answer as I
did. Suzanne Schiff, legislative

assistant to Congressman Slayton. You
remember the year that we thought she

an exchange student in Ecuador?

Walter Harper's in the Houston Ballet.

Of course, everyone asked about you,
too.

Now, don't bother getting up, Mom.

We'll do the dishes tonight.

We will?

Here.

I don't want it.

You might as well eat, kid. You're not
going to be here long enough to go on a

hunger strike.

I don't eat junk food.

Is that the way for partners to act?

We're not partners.

Sure we are. We're going to be rich.

I'm not going to be rich.

Did you tell him that?

No.

I'm not lying to you, dear.

You're going to be rich and you're going
to be famous.

People are going to write books about
you, son.

Good night, Mom.

Thanks for dinner.

Did you break any dishes?

No. Take your hat off when you kiss a
lady.

Hey, Rick.

Yo. Listen to this.

No. Hi, Mrs. McDendon. It's A .J. Simon.

Oh, yeah. Hello.

I'm sorry to call you back so late. I
just got your message.

Has Terry come home yet?

No. Well, he left our office at 3 .30.
Have you called the police?

Over an hour ago.

They said they'd send somebody.

They will. You don't have to have
Scully's home number, do you? Hold on

second, please.

Why?

Because of our Scully.

I'd have to be thinking that any kid
that could steal $700 could steal $7

million.

Of course, I'm a cynic.

What do you think you're doing?

What does it look like we're doing?

Searching the place.

Four in the morning?

You guys, cops or something?

Yeah, right.

You know where Skelly is?

Probably at his girlfriend's.

Girl in the car.

Do you know her name?

Doris. Doris.

Doris, got it.

Thank you.

Well? We've got $3 ,700 ,000.

You said we'd get $5 million at least.

Hear what I said? Do you want to get
away with this or not? We've got to take

the money from an active accounts.

That'll give us a month until the
transfers are discovered.

All right, okay, sorry.

What are you doing?

Resetting the status blocks.

You make the transfers yet?

No. Why not?

I'm tired.

If I don't get a little sleep, I'll
probably make a mistake.

All right.

Get a couple hours sleep in the other
room, but I want to transfer the money

before the bank opens.

Turn off the computer.

Should I log off the system? Just do it
right, okay?

Belafiel can hear the rats scurrying in
the darkness.

He knows if he sleeps, they will attack.

If only he had a rope to lower himself
from the tower.

If only you were a dwarf.

Then you could climb down.

What are we going to do with him all
day?

You both have to show up for work. He
can't stay here alone.

Don't worry about it.

You're going to kill him, aren't you?

God, I hope you know what you're doing.

Don't say what I am doing, Doris.

I've been waiting ten years for a chance
like this, and I'm not going to worry

about what happens to some kid when
there is four million dollars at stake.

So just shut up!

I said... Get a robe on.

Just a minute.

What?

Who are you?

You know what time it is. Yes, ma 'am.
We're private investigators.

Just a minute. I'll open the door.

We're looking for your boyfriend,
Scully.

We just went to his place and he's not
there. Now, where is he?

How should I know?

He's not my boyfriend. I work for him.

When's the last time you saw him?

Yesterday.

I'll see him in a couple hours. I'll
tell him you're looking for him.

We think that your boss is in a lot of
trouble.

Trouble like kidnapping, bank robbery.

If you see him, don't tell him that
we're looking for him. Just do us a

and give us a call, all right?

Yeah, sure.

Who'd he kidnap?

I think you know who he kidnapped.

I hope I'm wrong, lady, because if I'm
not, you're going to go to prison, and

about the only choice you're going to
have is how long they send you away for.

If Scully does anything to that kid...

You can count on seven years minimum.

Unless, of course, you're just an
innocent party who got roped into this

I don't know what you're talking about,
but if I see Scully, I'll call you.

Okay, thanks.

do everything right.

This time tomorrow you can go home. You
can call the police. It's not going to

matter. They're never going to find us.

You behave yourself and nothing is going
to happen to you.

But if you don't, it's not just you
who's going to get hurt.

I'm going to pay a visit to your mother
too.

Do you understand me?

Good.

Get dressed.

those transfers now.

Not now.

Hey,

Rick? Yeah?

What kind of a... car with Scully
driving.

I don't know that it looked like that
one or that one.

I don't know.

What the hell did you do?

I stuck another trapdoor in.

One you can't get out of.

How long ago did this happen?

Hey, where are they?

AJ? Come here.

Take a look at that.

How to play A and D. Someplace dark,
find the light, then go in.

A dwarf could hide for days in the
dungeons of W.

What's W?

Well, he didn't get a chance to finish
it. He was trying to tell us where he

planned to hide.

Scully's got a gun.

He's gonna kill him.

Play A &D.

That's Angels and Demons, A &D.
Someplace dark, find the light, then go

for days, find the light.

Ah, the lighthouse out on the point,
just over the hill from here. Okay. All

right, someplace dark.

Oh, the World War II bunkers. We used to
play there as kids.

Oh, yeah, all those tunnels
interconnect.

He could stay away from it for days.
Yeah, he could stay away from us for

I don't know. I've got to wait for him
to find them fast. Come on.

This way.

This way.

It's got to be Scully.

He's taking the wrong turn.

Terry's down this one.

He's running away from us.

Hey, Terry.

Stay where you are. It's us.

Say something so he'll believe you.

Your mom made meatloaf for dinner last
night. She said it was your favorite.

That's all I can think of.

Terry, stay where you are. We got a
light.

Figured it out.

Yeah, now let's get out of here.

All right, look, you guys go back that
way, get back to the lighthouse, and

lead Scully down to the beach. So you're
trapped down there.

I can always swim. You just get him out
of here. No.

Move it.

Rick, now!

Look, I can make this by myself.

You sure? Yeah, I've done it before.

Okay, go.

Get help! Okay.

Crazy surfaces.

help you? I know they don't work here,
but I'm looking for either A .J. Simon

Rick Simon.

I'm sorry, I don't know where they are.

Maybe we can help. I mean, if it's a
detective you need. I don't need a

detective, thank you, but you could
help.

I represent the San Diego First National
Bank and Trust.

The firm of Simon and Simon has done us
a tremendous service and very possibly

saved the bank a large amount of money
in recognition for their effort.

We've decided to present them with a
citation.

Perhaps you could give it to them for
me.

I think we can do that, can't we, Daddy?

And you can tell them, should the
occasion ever arise, we'll be happy to

customers to them.

I will. They'll be glad to hear that.

Thank you very much.

Goodbye.

That is really beautiful, isn't it?
Look.

Get that thing out of here.

Well, now, Daddy, I thought you might
like to give it to him.

Out.

What is this? $67 .50 for a tune -up on
your truck? Yeah, I use them business.

What's wrong with that?

We don't have the money to pay for it.
That's what's wrong with it. Well, if

you'd gotten Scully to pay on delivery,
we'd be in good shape now, wouldn't we?

And this time he's in trouble. He's
going to get sacked. He's dumped on the

-yard line by Oakland's Stork Hendricks.

Phone bill? Shine it on for a month.

If we don't have a phone, we're out of
business.

All right, all right!

He's at the 20, breaks the tackle, cuts
back against the rain.

He's got a clear field.

30, 35, 40, 45, midfield strike.

45, 40, he's in the clear. He may go all
the way.

Terry's decided to give you something,
haven't you, Terry?

But that's his computer.

Well, I'm kind of grounded when it comes
to computers for a while.

Are you going to leave that thing with
him?

Mm -hmm, sure.

Terry's going to show you how to use it.

You can balance your checkbook.

Yeah? Well, no, AJ does that.

Can you play games on it?

Sure.

Well, look it up and show me how it
works.

Are you sure you really want to do this?
I want that thing out of the house.

Terry has to pay back the money he took
from the bank. I don't want him using

that to do it.

This is the input.

This is the output.

Okay. Black and gray, right?

Black's the input.

I don't know.

I'm supposed to get Terry to transfer
just a little money into our account,

could we?

We may not look, I think, like one
another.

And there are times when we have hurt
each other.

Still, we're more than brothers.
