All language subtitles for Simon & Simon s05e23 The Last Harangue

Hello? Anybody home?

Hey, Ahmed, get your butt over here.

Ah, butts, yes, butts, butts, butts,
butts.

How you say, how you say, how you say?

Cigarettes, yes, aisle four. And a very
good night to you tonight, missus.

I want to pay for this.

Yes. And I can't... find those salt
-free potato chips you used to have.

Ah, yes.

Well, where the hell are they?

I am very well, thank you. And where the
hell are you?

Joke.

Get me some eggs, too.

Ah, yes, eggs.

Rick, I think you're getting a little
carried away.

I mean, it's not going to matter if the
store is robbed if you keep driving

their customers away.

We're going to be in a lot better shape
if this place is deserted when the guy

walks in. That's going to happen
tonight. I got a feeling. You said last

And the night before, and the night
before that. He has hit three quickie

in the last week. Now, whatever's making
him do this is making him do it more

often. That's the only one left.

Eggs. Eggs.

Eggs. Eggs.

You're tracking dirt.

Listen, mister, you cannot talk to me
like that. In my country, I'm extra

technician. I'm sorry I put eggs at
bottom. Next time you come in, I give

free racing form. Have a night.

Sheesh.

That's him.

Nuts, he doesn't look anything like the
police composite.

Do you think if those guys could draw
it, it'd be cops?

The hell are you looking at? Ah, good
evening, sir. Ah, this is no public

library. You break it, you buy it. Will
there be anybody else? Perhaps some

chocolate chip cookies?

Do you have any razor blades?

I'm sorry, would you say this again?

I said, open the register and empty it
on the counter.

Ah, that is not what you said. No, you
cannot fool Peru so easily. My English

not that bad.

You said... Do you know how many eggs
you broke in here?

Razor blades, I believe is what you
said.

sugar just the way you like it.

I like my coffee black. What did you do?
Clean up the coffee pot? Wait, wait.

I'm not finished yet.

Two dozen.

Jumbo. Plain donut.

Your favorite.

Let's see. What do we got here? This
month's issue of Birds and Bees.

Related boudoir.

What else we got here? Bottle of
sangria.

Yukon bar.

What's going on?

I went down to the Quickie Mart to pick
up her check.

They gave us a bonus.

Too bad. in 15 seconds.

We risked our lives for a bottle of
sangria and a Yukon bar?

Well, try not to think of it that way, A
.J. What we did, we preserved the right

of every American to buy a girly
magazine and a frozen pizza at 2 o

the morning at perfect safety.

What did I tell you about where to
change the order?

You said they're cheap.

When you're right, you're right. What
can I say?

Hiya. Hal Goddard.

Quite a job you guys pulled off last
night.

Liked your interview on TV, too.

Thank you. Thank you very much. What can
we do for you, Mr. Goddard? Well, I'm

always looking around for good people.

You may have heard of Bob Jacobs?

State senator.

That's him. That's him. That's right.

Only thing was, when I met him, he
wanted to be an orthodontist.

See, that's what I do. I, uh... I guide
political careers.

Oh. Oh, you want us to provide security
for one of your candidates, huh?

No, no, no. What I was thinking, what
I'm talking here is... Simon for city

council.

Well, I don't think I could, really.

Hey, Rick.

I love the hat. I love the look. I can
tell you're a maverick and a renegade, a

real rough -and -ready guy. A .J., what
I had in mind was you running for city

council.

Andrew Jackson Simon.

Come on, A .J., even the name's perfect.

Yeah, but politicians are supposed to be
special, and I just, I don't

feel special.

You're not making anybody special to run
things, A .J.

You are it.

What's important to realize is you have
potential.

We're going into the primary. Only the
top two make the finals. I think you're

going to be one of them.

He's right, A .J. When you were little,
all you wanted to be was president.

Well, and Rick wanted to be Captain
Midnight, and that little girl that

next door, what's her name, Mavis, she
wanted to be Sheena, Queen of the

Well, one of us made it.

Look, A .J., the thing that's important
here is, all right, the reason you like

being a private investigator is you get
to help people.

You'd have a hell of an opportunity to
help people if you had a real say in how

the city's run.

And what about our business?

We're partners, Rick. I don't want to be
left out of that. I can run the

business for the time being. If I need
help, I'll yell.

What exactly do you get out of this?

Well, during the campaign, I'll pay
myself a moderate salary out of the war

chest. Then if you're elected, there'll
be one more up -and -coming politician

that won't refuse my calls.

Meaning that I'd be some sort of
political hack who owed you favors?

A .J., you can run for office without
owing any favors.

You just can't get elected.

Now, I think you got a lot to offer.

So does your family.

What matters now is what do you think?

I'd be lying if I said it didn't appeal
to me.

I mean, I've always thought the
government was there to help people so

wouldn't have to face overwhelming
problems alone.

If I do this, I want to make a
difference.

I mean, I was lucky enough to grow up in
a wonderful city like San Diego, and I

want to make sure that city is...

Just as wonderful for my kids and for
their kids.

I think I just talked myself into it.

I'll drink to that.

Councilman.

You any relation to the other Nixon? No
basketball players in my family.

Look at the camera, AJ. Don't squint.

Lieutenant Brown, I spoke to you on the
phone? Yeah.

Have to help AJ with this. I'm glad to
hear you say that, a man of your

reputation and integrity in San Diego.

Thanks very much, Mr. Nixon.

Step right in there, Mr. Brown.

Make sure you see the badge, please.
He'll be terrific.

I thank you.

Hey, Ricky.

Hey, Bill.

How you guys doing? Look, are you guys
registered voters? Destroy that one,

you, please? Well, no, I know those
guys. You'll get used to it, AJ. You'll

used to it. Now, listen, I set up a
press conference for tomorrow, and I

you to spend the rest of the day and
tonight with me talking about your

platform. All right.

Actually, I'm glad we're getting to
that, because I've got some ideas for a

naturalization of immigration I'd like
to run by you. Well, that's great. I

you to keep them to yourself, all right?

It's not an easy issue to take sides on
at this stage in the campaign, all

right?

Elgar? That's right, that's right.

Talk to me.

Hey, Johnny Lee, how's it going with
you, boy?

I told you not to worry about them
polls, son.

You want to drop the Lee from your
promos, why?

It's your middle name, Johnny.

Lee's a good southern name. Now,
remember, your opponent is a Yankee

and I want to underline that fact.

Right. That's what I want to hear you
say. Good, good. Don't you worry about a

thing. I'll be down there in a few days
to wrap this thing up.

Talk to you later.

You're running someone else's campaign
as well? Don't worry about it. It's

control.

Here's your competition.

A couple of unknowns, the usual
lunatics, and the man that you've got to

about.

Mr. Stern.

I intend to keep the air pure, the
waters clear, and the seas bright

and living blue.

I also intend to make certain that
history isn't bulldozed over in order to

room for another parking lot.

I think that's about it. I'm happy to
answer some questions.

Temple, uh, Miss Hill.

Temple Hill, Channel 3 News.

Mr. Simon, San Diego is growing by leaps
and bounds, and some say it's a bit too

fast. What do you think?

I think that sustained growth of our
fair city must be tempered by

planning. I mean, we don't want San
Diego to turn into another L .A.

We have to make sure that all our local
services, housing, transportation, that

they're all ready to accommodate that
growth.

Thank you.

It's natural.

Too early to tell.

Mr. Simon, Mary Linear, Channel 12 News.

Let's face it, Mr. Simon, you're a
private investigator whose background

consists of breaking and entering,
spying, and sleazy divorce cases.

You can't handle your problems with a
gun on the city council of San Diego.

Do you really think you belong in
politics?

Thank you very much, ladies and
gentlemen. No, Al, I want to answer

Let me...

tell you a little bit about my line of
work.

People come to me and my brother when
they have nowhere else to turn.

They've tried the police, the courts,
politicians, and they haven't gotten any

help, so they come to us.

What we do isn't glamorous.

Sometimes we carry guns, and sometimes
we sit in parked cars all night.

But we always ask questions in search of
truth and justice.

And quite frankly, I think that serving
truth and justice is

not bad preparation for city councilmen.

AJ, this is Emily, who brought over a
few of her friends.

We're behind you 100%, AJ.

Oh, thank you. You know how in all the
campaigns you always see the pretty

with the little hats and everything.
Emily's doing Camelot over at the Old

Dinner Theater. That's nice. Well,
highlights from, you know, I write

too. Listen to what I worked out, okay?

AJ Simon's running for city council.

AJ is the one to beat all the
candidates. That's terrific. Vote for AJ

Vote for him today, cause San Diego
needs this guy. Let's elect a J. That's

wonderful.

Rick, Rick, Rick.

Listen, I know we're going to be able to
use these volunteers.

Good, good.

This brother helping brother angle, it's
beautiful, it really is. But let me

hire the staff, will you? Right. I mean,
my people can take care of all this.

I've got more important things for you
to do, like catering.

Catering's very important in Canton.

Right. Yeah, you can coordinate with my
people. It'll be great. Oh, by the way,

I rented you a new car. It's that dark
blue sedan outside.

What, do you got a car?

Rick, the last thing we need in this
campaign is an oddball, brother.

Most people drive normal cars, and I've
seen that, Rick. It's not normal.

Right.

I'm not running for anything. I know
that. I know that. But any attention you

draw to yourself by being eccentric is
going to hurt us.

So I want you to keep a very low
profile, all right?

Right. Thank you. I appreciate it. I
knew you'd understand.

Yeah.

Are you Mr. Stern's assistant?

If you're here to volunteer, see Karen.
She'll show you how to register new

voters. No, I need to see Mr. Stern. At
the warehouse, they told me to talk to

you. Why don't you come back tomorrow,
honey? Mr. Stern is very busy today.

Can I make an appointment? It's
important.

It's about my brother.

He's been killed.

I'm sure Mr. Stern would love to talk to
you, but this is a bad time.

Try again tomorrow.

Don,

I just got the first reports on the
other candidates.

Ah, talk to me. I don't think we have
anything to worry about. Helena

the teacher, was treated for depression
when she was 19.

Cute. And Billings hasn't got a program.

He just wants to cut all spending.

And what about this Simon kid, though?
Our own polls say he came up five points

in three days.

Well, Goddard's launched a pretty
aggressive campaign. He's building up a

support among the younger demographics.

But I've seen Al operate before.

He always picks a young, pretty face,
and the voters get bored real fast.

It's too close for comfort, Arnie.

He's getting great press for catching
this quickie robber. People will forget

about that, and when they do, Simon will
be just another tacky private eye with

a police record. There's nothing to
worry about.

Hope so.

Please be seated now, ladies.

Thank you all for coming.

Most of you know my son, Andrew.

He probably delivered your newspapers at
one time.

Andrew has been in the business of
helping people in one way or another for

long as I can remember.

Now he's asking your support in the race
for city councilman.

I hope you'll all give him a warm
welcome.

Thank you, Mom.

You know, lately a lot of people have
been referring to my brother and me as

heroes. But quite honestly, I can't
think of anything I've done that was

heroic as when I used to make it past
Mrs.

Abernathy's dog delivering groceries.

Well, I've grown up a lot since then.

And San Diego has grown up with us.

Frankly, I haven't liked everything that
I've seen.

Air pollution, traffic congestion.

But still, I don't think that anyone can
deny that San Diego is an

extraordinarily beautiful city.

Highway.

Very well developed city.

Darnie, I ask you to bury Simon and you
throw him a bachelor party? Not Donald.

Not only does he come off smelling like
a rose with that quip of his, but now

everybody in the state knows his name.
Donald. What? I had nothing to do with

that girl and the cake.

What?

If I had been told about a schedule
change, would have had the right cake at

right place at the right time. You're
the one who told me to order a cake with

girl in it.

Party at the Brotherhood of the Condor
tomorrow night.

They put out a memo. I didn't get one.

Oh, wonderful.

Well, I made the headline. Far north of
San Francisco, I am now the

laughingstock of the entire state.

Are you kidding? They ate it up.

I didn't know a human mouth could drop
open that wide.

A .J., I want to talk to you for a
minute, please.

To be honest, you were quick and we got
lucky.

We cannot afford any more screw -ups by
your brother.

Now, wait a minute. It was your people
who made the mistake.

I'm not asking you to insult him. I've
done this a million times. I can do it

without hurting his feelings.

You know, AJ, I've been thinking about
it. I've been spending too much time on

this campaign stuff.

One of us is going to have to run the
office.

Now, wait a minute, Rick. Seriously,
unless you're elected governor six terms

something, somebody's going to have to
run the business.

I can't do that with both of us out
slapping babies and kissing backs.

I told you we couldn't make all these
stops. The schedule is just too tight.

Mr. Stern?

Mr. Stern, I've got to talk to you. Miss
Gale, I told you we'd get in touch with

you as soon as Mr. Stern had a free
minute in his calendar. He's late for a

TV interview.

I'll wait for him. After that, he's tied
up with a fundraiser. Please be

reasonable. This is a tight election.

Take it out of the campaign country.

Yeah, right.

Why not?

You guys, come here.

Mr. Stern, do you have any comment on
last night's incident involving your

opponent, Mr. Simon?

Well, he can certainly think on his
feet. I'll have to take my hat off to

young man.

Do you think it will affect the
campaign?

Oh, I doubt it.

Mr. Simon's brother, Rick, ordered the
cake. I understand he's quite a

character. But you're not going to hear
any Rick Simon jokes from me. After all,

my young opponent is not his brother's
keeper.

Oh, here we go with the oddball
brothers.

But what does worry me is Mr. Simon's
own background.

He's been accused of several counts of
assault, breaking and entering,

possession of burglary tools,
wiretapping illegally, impersonating a

This man has just officially entered the
mudslinging stage.

Having a wild animal in a residential
zone, discharging firearms within city

limits. Fraud.

Mr. Simon, your neighbors say that your
brother's house explodes about twice a

year. Is that why you live in your boat
out there?

He lives in his house. I live in my
boat.

We've also been told that your dog has a
scar from a bullet wound. I noticed

that you have a scar.

Is that from the same case?

I don't really remember. Why don't you
ask my dog?

The guy's brother runs for office.

All of a sudden, people show up, start
taking pictures of him naked.

They've been taking pictures of me when
I was asleep.

Mouth open.

Oh, no, they couldn't possibly. There's
not enough light in here.

I don't think.

Oh, this is unbelievable. What is going
on around here? Look at that.

This is not good.

That's it.

I'm not taking that down.

About the time one of us went down there
and gave Stern a piece of our mind.

Just hold on there, will you, Rick? I'm
preparing a release heavy on your war

record. Cases you guys have solved. The
whole Damon and Pythias brother angle.

Good.

He's not going to do anything foolish,
is he?

Not without his pants, he won't, no.

keeps telling me to come back tomorrow.

Well, it's another tomorrow.

They said Mr.

Stern was here.

Now you say he's gone.

Well, you can tell Stern that he'd
better be ready to tell me how my

died.

Excuse me. Excuse me, miss.

Hi, I'm Rick Simon.

I recognize you.

You're the oddball brother.

Yeah, that's me. Listen, I heard you say
something in there I think you might

want to tell my brother A .J. about.

This doesn't have anything to do with
politics.

I think my brother was murdered.

Oh, you got coffee?

When's the last time you saw him, Matt?

We had dinner a couple weeks ago.

He told me that he thought something
strange was going on at the company.

A couple of the drivers were acting, I
don't know, weird.

guys that he thought were his friends
would suddenly clam up when he came

around, things like that.

The next thing I knew, he was dead.

As far as you know, there were no
personal problems, you know, drinking,

anything like that?

No.

Matty was the most level -headed guy
I've ever known.

He more or less raised me after my
mother died and took care of the family

my dad got laid off.

If there were any problems, I'd know
about them.

I take it you've already been to the
police?

They say there's nothing to indicate
that it wasn't an accident.

I did.

Until the insurance people said that we
weren't entitled to Matt's company

insurance.

The Stearns people say that he wasn't
clocked in at the time.

They say he took the truck out on
personal business.

I know a lot of truckers who said they
loved life on the road, but I've never

known one of them to take the rig out
unless he was getting paid for it.

That's what I'd say.

I just can't get anybody to listen.

Well, I'd have a conflict of interest,
you know, working for A .J.

But since I just resigned from the
campaign staff, I guess I don't.

How y 'all doing, Dave?

I just come by to see if Matt Gale's on
call.

Matt's dead.

Tell him to leave with the wheel a
couple of days ago.

All right, it's bad.

Friend of yours, was he?

Well, you know, we swapped our share of
stories whenever our paths crossed out

there on the road.

Figured I'd look him up as long as I was
out here.

That is peculiar. He just didn't seem
like the kind that'd lose it out there.

What do you think? It was an accident or
a mechanical problem or what?

Yeah, it was an accident, all right.

Well, we got a lot of work to do here.

Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry. Go ahead.

AJ? Yeah? I've got something to show you
here.

Oh.

And Jackson Simon, born in San Diego.

Raised in San Diego.

Educated in San Diego.

Resourceful, energetic, dedicated.

Andrew Jackson Simon for a better San
Diego.

How do you like that? Great, eh?

Yeah,

it's very nice. It's just, I mean,
shouldn't we hear me saying something

you know, like my stand on the issues or
something? We're going to get to that

phase two.

Phase two?

We've only got a few days before the
primary. AJ, you've got a great smile.

When the voters go to the polls, they're
going to forget what you said about

landfill, but they're going to remember
your smile. My smile? Your smile.

Hey, Rick.

How's it going? Hi.

We've got a new client.

Oh, yeah? What?

Rick, it's good to see you. Glad to see
a little hardball didn't get you down.

AJ, we've only got a little while before
the banquet.

We've got to run over your responses for
the debate tomorrow.

Mr. Simon? Mr. Simon?

What is your position on freeway
construction?

On what?

Freeway? Freeway construction?

Ah, um... Well, with San Diego being one
of the fastest growing cities in the

United States, it is clear that we will
have some expansion.

No, no, hold it, hold it.

Expanding is out. It implies you want to
raise taxes. That's the last thing

anybody wants to hear. Say that you are
in touch with some experts in the field

who are currently studying the issue. We
are?

Yeah. Hey, Jay, we got to get out of
here. We got to get over to Troop, what

it, 113? They hold the record this year
for selling most of those thick

chocolate bars.

We're going to get some pictures out of
it. Come on, let's go. Yeah, well, wait.

Do you want to go over the case with me?
No, no, I can handle it on my own. I've

got everything under control. I'll just
stay here.

Hold it.

The press is calling your break in Simon
Gate. Would you care to comment?

Did you break into Stern's for dirty
tricks, or did your brother want

intelligence on Stern's campaign?

What the hell were you doing over there?

I'm a private investigator.

I want to know the case. Are you crazy?
Breaking into the opponent's

headquarters to dig up... What the hell
kind of case is that? A murder case.

Murder? Right.

You may have murdered your brother's
political career.

A .T., we're going to have to make a
statement immediately.

We're going to have to sit down and
rethink our whole strategy.

Would you excuse us for a minute, Al?
I'd like to talk to Rick alone.

While you're sitting in here, those
reporters are pulling out old Watergate

editorials and putting your name in
them. I know.

Would you excuse us, please?

Hurry up.

I wanted to tell you yesterday. I know.

Hey.

I'm sorry.

Our client's brother was killed in an
accident near Stern's warehouse, unless

thinks it was murder.

What did you find out last night?

Well, there were some barrels in there
marked HCN.

They had stickers all over them, danger,
hazardous waste. Of course, you

couldn't see any of that once they'd put
them inside other barrels.

Did they know what you saw?

Yeah, yeah, but they'd probably think
what everybody else thinks, that I was

there for Stern's political
headquarters.

By the time they figure it out, we could
follow one of their trucks and find out

where they're dumping this stuff.

Is that the one you saw last night?

No, but if it starts leaking poison
around Bakersfield, I want to be able to

prove where it came from.

At least I know what I'm gonna say.

is ready for action, Al. I plan on
knocking him back to the Bush Leagues

now.

Come on, will you? Look, I'm sorry I'm
late.

We have something important here.

Stern is illegally transporting and
dumping toxic waste.

Can you prove that?

I have photographs of Stern's trucks and
Stern's employees. I cannot prove that

Stern himself is personally involved.
It's dangerous, A .J. Right now, the way

things have been going, it's better we
play this safe. The only way

that we are going to bust this case
open.

It's by forcing him into some kind of
action.

Now, we feel there may be a murder
involved here.

You're going to accuse Stern of murder?

Are you out of your mind?

I'm not going to accuse him of anything.
I just want to shake him up a little

and see if he'll lead us to the evidence
we need.

We play it safe. The way I said, we may
still have a chance.

It's up to you.

You want to solve this case or you want
to win this election?

What's it going to be?

Excuse me.

Welcome to a special election eve
debate.

We are pleased to present the candidates
in what is perhaps the most hotly

contested primary that San Diego's seen
in a long time.

On my right, Donald Stern, a member of
the Planning Commission, advisor to the

mayor on transportation, and most
recently, a lobbyist for the trucking

industry.

Mr. Andrew Simon, a private investigator
and a newcomer to politics. To my left

are Helena Needleman, civic teacher.

And Mr. Zeno Billings, a retired
businessman who now devotes full time to

consumer problems.

Right. Candidate, why Donald Stern for
city council now?

Well, Temple, I believe that the people
of this great city of ours are tired of

inexperienced politicians running around
like chicken little thinking the sky is

falling every time an acorn drops.

San Diego is going to be facing some
issues in the years to come, and they

be dealt with, and dealt with with
something more than a twinkly smile.

Now, I may be old -fashioned, but this
old war horse believes that slow and

steady wins the race.

Thank you.

Mr. Simon.

Fact. People all over this nation are
being ripped off all the time. Fact.

We need fast action, not this. slow and
steady garbage.

Excuse me, Mr. Billings, but we're
talking to Mr. Simon now.

Oh, my goodness. I'm sorry.

It's quite all right.

What the people of San Diego need is not
more soothing rhetoric or cute

catchphrases. They need someone who will
honestly apprise them of the problems

that our city faces and of the cost to
the solutions of those problems, whether

it's economic or...

cultural, or environmental, Mr. Stern.

I never said there were no problems.

No, you really didn't say much of
anything at all, did you?

Well,

maybe you'd like to say something. Maybe
you'd like to explain what your brother

was doing breaking into my campaign
headquarters late last night.

Gentlemen. I'd be happy to explain.

He was investigating illegal
transportation of toxic waste in your

I have pictures, Mr. Stern, of your
employees putting barrels labeled H -C

into your trucks and then dumping them
illegally.

That's a lie! No, it is not.

I'm leaving. I don't have to put up with
this.

Mr. Stern, uh... A .J., uh, Mr.
Billings,

um... No comment.

I hope you realize what you just did.

Yes.

What the hell was that all about? Don't
worry about it, Don. I've already got

our attorneys working on a response.

That's not what I mean. Is there
anything going on in my company I don't

anything about? Of course not. Don't lie
to me, Arnie.

I want every cargo manifest and billing
log on my desk in half an hour.

I want every mile on every one of my
trucks accounted for for the past...

You can't expect to get away with it. I
don't think I'll come out too badly.

I may be out of the transport business
for a while, but at least I get to walk

They think you've been moving the stuff.

And it's you they're going to find,
having died trying to destroy evidence.

Seems like a strange place to have a

If that leaks into the water table,
you're going to poison the area around

for miles.

Environmental issues were never your

It's nothing personal, A .J.

Voters just don't like their candidates

the primary.

What they like is a nice, serious lady
who doesn't say anything too

controversial.

Don't tell me.

Yeah, that's right. I'm managing Helena
Needleman during the election campaign.

We could go a long ways.

Hi, AJ.

You, um, you sacrificed a lot for me.

I'm sorry.

I'm not. AJ and I will probably take a
