Our local weather forecast.

Sunny all day, temperatures... I know
that Brooke is your twin brother. That

toupee isn't fooling anyone.

And now it's time to play Keep It In The
Family!

Then you take the three eggs, separate
the whites from the yolks, one at a

of course.

Va a hacer calor todo el día y la
temperatura será de 85 grados. Now we

bottom prices, we got rock bottom
financing. Dr.

Dorothy Hartcroft, speaking of sex.

Denounce that the students stormed the
American embassy in an attempt to free

the dean of the foreign language. Our
discussion today is about sex.

For now, forget about the valentines and
the love notes, especially what is said

between the lines.

It's what happens between the sheets
that counts.

Often, a man and a woman will treat each
other with a great deal of respect and

courtesy during the evening that leads
to sex.

But... Do they spend as much time
thinking about their lovemaking?

Do they think about sex as carefully?

No. They often bring their sexual
problems along with them.

Now, you cannot treat sexual problems as
if they had nothing to do with the rest

of your life.

You can spot trouble coming.

Now, what is the sexual image... Oh,
it's that sex lady. I just love her.

I did know A .J. had company. I'll just
come back later. No, no, no, no. I just

came to get some coffee.

Uh -huh.

Uh, well, uh, uh, help yourself.

Right over there.

What about the woman?

What does she want?

You must be Ricky.

Uh, yeah.

I'm Robin. Hi, Robin. Nice to meet you.

Uh, sit down.

The man will carefully plan where to
take his day. Does she like shellfish,

steak, chili dogs?

The woman, on the other hand, will
debate for hours over what to wear.

Should she seem formal or casual?

Should she wear a high heel or a low
-cut dress?

When you add it all up, it could come
out to hours.

The man who wears a leather jacket or a
cowboy boot probably has a dull fantasy

life. His lack of imagination is
reflected in his infantile attachment to

symbols of masculinity.

Yes.

I'll tell you what, I'll just come back
in an hour or two and I'll... No, no,

no. I've got to be going now. It's
getting late.

He wants the woman to think he is
intelligent.

Tell J .A. I'll call him tomorrow.

Yeah, yeah.

Bye. Bye.

Now a responsible man that all of us are
looking for?

What time is it and where's Pam?

Ah, it's, uh, 12 .30 and her name's
Robin.

Well, it was an honest mistake.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

What happened to the coffee?

Don't say it.

Drink it. I told you not to say it.

You know, A .J., I think...

Maybe it's time you slowed up a little
bit.

When did you get that idea, Dr. Dorothy?

Well, ever since you and Liz broke up,
you've been living a pretty strange

Strange?

To you?

You've been living this life for 15
years.

Well, yeah, but you've got to take five
years just to work up to it so you don't

hurt yourself.

Thanks for the expert advice.

Anytime.

There's a lady you ought to listen to.
She'll tell you.

Tell me what?

That you have an ingrown double reverse
aversion reaction with a half twiff.

You're not doing this because you enjoy
it.

I am having a great time.

Somebody at the door.

Hello.

This is very weird.

It's Dr.

Dorothy.

You must be Dick.

Rick.

What are you doing here?

Your mother sent me.

Our mother sent you?

Yes, Cecilia and I are in the same
aerobics class.

Ah. I would like to hire you.

Ah, of course you would. What kind of
case?

One of my employees has been murdered.

I'm sorry.

May I use the telephone?

Please.

What's the trouble?

I'll be right there.

I'm sorry, I've got to go.

Can you meet me in my office in about
two hours?

Sure.

Oh, Carl, Carl.

I guess you heard the news from Toronto.

I read the report in the journal.

Then you know that they have confirmed
Dorothy's findings. What the clinic

confirmed was that her data was
reasonable. That isn't a blanket

her therapeutic methods.

I hope that's what you say on the
television debate.

Because Dorothy will make you look like
an idiot.

I'm sorry, Ted. I believe that what you
and Dorothy are doing could harm some

patients. Well, you give your patients a
lesson in psychiatric jargon. We're

solving problems.

You're nothing more... Excuse us? Yes?

Could you direct us to Dr.

Harcroft's office, please?

Yes. Yes.

Follow me.

The receptionist will have some forms
for you to fill out. Susan?

You are Mr... Simon.

And Mr... Simon.

Simon. Right.

Why don't you buzz Dr.

Harcroft and tell her that Mr. Simon and
Mr... Simon. Simon are here to see her.

Mr. Simon and Mr. Simon are here to see
you.

You seen Dr. Harcroft before? Matter of
fact, she came to the house. Ah, well,

that's good.

You can go right in. Thank you.

I'm Dr. Van Adams, and I'll probably be
seeing you at the later stages of your

treatment. No, we're not patients.

Thank you, Ted.

Hi, Rick.

Hi. Hey, Jay.

Hi. Please sit down. Thank you for
coming.

Can I get you something to drink?

No, thank you.

You said one of your employees had been
murdered.

Yes. Rachel Royce. She was a sex
surrogate.

Are you familiar with surrogate therapy?

I think we know what we're talking about
here, yeah.

A sex surrogate is someone who helps
somebody else with sexual difficulties.

It's a little more complicated than
that, but yes. A surrogate helps

whose emotional problems affect their
sexuality.

Right.

What do you want us to do?

Rachel was a wonderful girl. I want you
to find her killer immediately.

Immediately? Yes, as long as this isn't
settled. The clinic and everyone in it

are at the mercy of the police.

Some of our patients will be set back
terribly by this kind of attention.

Okay. The first thing we will need is a
complete list of all of Rachel Royce's

clients. Yes. The police wanted that,
too. However, I cannot reveal my

names.

Well, you may not have any choice.

According to the law...

I have to let the police know if I
suspect a patient. However, I'm very

that none of my patients is a killer.

Well, I don't know about sex surrogates,
but in most sex -related crimes,

it is usually the client... Now, you
talk as though Rachel were a prostitute.

She wasn't. No, that's not what I meant.
What he meant was that when a murder is

sex -related, generally suspicion just
kind of naturally falls on the sex

partner or partners.

You know, you both are expressing a
great deal of anxiety about this

What? Yet you're both very much at ease
with the idea of murder.

Now, why do you think that is? No, it's
not anxiety.

Frustration may be anxiety, no.

Often, aggression is much easier for men
to express than love is. Then why don't

you give us a list of the men who might
have that problem?

If I had a list of suspects, I would
have given it to the police.

Okay.

What would you like us to do?

Whatever you think is best.

Rachel Royce lived and worked here for
seven months. She was a model tenant.

Ah, mail.

I assume that arrived after the police
left.

I guarantee it. That's the sort of thing
we've missed.

The girl who found the body said she
heard a motorcycle, but she didn't see

anything. And the door was unlocked.

Good Lord.

They callin' this a burglary?

Well, that's the official view. I mean,
that's what you'll read in a newspaper.

She surprised a burglar and a fight
ensued. No kidding.

Unofficially, you don't have to tear a
place up this much to find something

worth stealing.

This does look rather enthusiastic for a
burglar.

What have you got?

Well, we've got a telephone statement,
some advertisement, and a bank

Bank statement?

A receipt the kind you get when you make
a night deposit.

Some deposit?

$10 ,000 in cash?

It's the same date as the murder.

Blackmail? Well, not many men want it
known that they're seeing a sex

Oh, wait a minute. Let's not overreact
just because their job involves sex. I

mean, that could be a gift. It could be
an inheritance.

It could be... A .J., there are two
reasons that people get this kind of

in cash.

to talk or to shut up.

In any case, would you mind checking
that writing against Templer, her

handwriting?

You don't need any ID to make a deposit.

Well, I will need a client list.

And you know, it's going to take a long,
long time to get a warrant for Dr.

Dorothy's files.

Warrant? Client list, huh? Yeah. I mean,
something like that, who knows, could

go all the way to the Supreme Court.

Now, I'm not the kind of guy who would
ask two gentlemen such as yourself to

go... Three

times. What?

Three times rent a plant.

What's going on?

We're the plant now. We're here to
change the plant. Put that one down over

there. Change the plant?

You got it.

Free time when you need green on the
scene. Have you seen our ad?

You think plants live in those dark
restaurants because they like the food?

They look good because we rotate them.

Who do we do first, boss?

Uh, Delphinium for Dr. Dorothy.

on Rachel Royce.

Let's start there.

Expensive address.

Blackmail is looking more likely.

Poor little fella.

You see the size of that thing, Lum?

Aphids on this baby are just terrible.

They like it when you sing to them.

Oh baby

What? You Mr. Ben Rollins? Yes, you're
right. I'm white.

Is that your motorcycle parked outside?

Motorcycle? Are you kidding?

Last time I rode a motorcycle was in
1959.

Can I help you with something?

I'm a private investigator. I'm working
for Dorothy Harcroft.

Dorothy?

Is there some place where we could talk
alone for a few minutes?

Alone? What for?

What for?

It's about Rachel Royce.

What about Rachel?

I'm sorry, but she's been murdered.

What?

Rachel?

I don't believe it.

When's the last time you saw her?

A few weeks ago. Ben and I took her out
to dinner to celebrate the end of Ben's

therapy. Yeah.

You two seem awfully open about all
this.

Open? I don't know what you're talking
about. I owe Rachel.

Well, my life had problems, and I didn't
know it.

Then I was working so hard, I didn't
care. But now... Boy, now I've got

and I do care.

You don't think it was a client, do you?

Well, that's what I'm trying to find out
now.

Listen, I appreciate your talking with
me, and I'll keep this strictly

confidential. Well, that's all right.
Don't worry about it. We're scheduled to

be on Dorothy's television program next
month.

Well... Thanks again.

Ah, Mr. Hollis.

Hi, my name is A .J. Simon.

I'm a private investigator.

I'd like to talk to you about Rachel
Royce.

Who?

It is my understanding that you were a
client of Rachel Royce.

This better be good.

Violating confidentiality is
malpractice. And I'm a lawyer. Miss

murdered.

Murdered? I've been hired by Dr.
Harcroft to see if I can find the

Rachel Royce ever ask you for money?

Now, wait a minute. I know what you're
thinking.

I never told my wife I was seeing a
sexual surrogate before I met her.

But if I had to tell her, I would have.

May I ask why you were seeing Miss
Royce?

Dorothy Harcroft referred me.

It wasn't a very happy time in my life.

You married?

No.

I'd just broken up with a girl that I'd
been dating for years.

We were almost engaged, if you know what
I mean.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I don't know
what happened then. It was like I went

crazy or something, I guess. I don't
know if it was my ego or maybe I was

lonely. But I started dating all these
girls. In fact, there were so many, I

couldn't even get a handle on all their
names. Yeah, well, wait a minute. Excuse

me, but I don't see how having fun calls
for psychiatric treatment.

Who said anything about fun?

I mean, if you have to prove something
50 times, you need help.

You own a motorcycle?

Nah, I get my kicks from this.

It's a nice car.

Um, what did Dr.

Harcroft say? I mean, what was wrong
with you? Does it have a name?

Don't worry. It's not contagious.

Um, are you the extent of this, or will
there be others? I can't promise the

police won't be here.

I think I better have a talk with my
wife.

They were using my car.

Okay, I'll think about it after the
broadcast.

Right.

Got a present for you, Lieutenant.

AJ. I didn't expect to see you in the
nightly roundup with a beer and steer.

I thought she was alone. She certainly
seemed friendly enough.

Didn't you check to see if she had on a
wedding ring?

She wasn't wearing one.

Sounds like a mild case of statoriasis.

But I don't think the people of San
Diego have anything to worry about.

When I get out of these cuffs, I'm going
to take off your head. Yeah? Anytime.

Wait, wait, wait.

Be gentle.

I promise you.

Who was that?

Ah, he and A .J. had a difference of
opinion.

He had an impression that A .J.'s date
was his wife.

Well, I see you've agreed to disagree.

Oh, shut up.

Right in the middle of a case and you
decide to go hunt and quail. That's not

like you, A .J.

I went out to get something to read.

Beer and steer.

What were you going to read, labels on
beer bottles?

Markov books, right next door.

They do a spillover business.

I just sort of spilled over. I'll tell
you, Ben.

Dorothy. I just figured, you know, maybe
we could learn something about her

therapy. It might jar something loose.

Good idea.

Never know what you're gonna find.

Illustration's good.

It's not meant to be a funny book.

Sex is supposed to be taken seriously.

Then why aren't you taking it seriously?

Look, why don't you just talk with Dr.
Dorothy? What could it hurt?

Because, first of all, I don't need to
talk to Dr.

Dorothy. And because, secondly... I hate
to see you trolling for fish that are

on other people's menu.

She was sitting by herself.

I didn't feel like being alone.

AJ, I've got friends. We make a few
phone calls. You don't have to go out

getting yourself beat up.

Thank you. What?

Well, I appreciate that.

I mean, all these years.

The two things that you would never
share with me were those Swedish

Mom used to catch you with and your
little black book.

Thank you.

I've still got some bank issues.

I'll live.

Hello.

Hi.

Yes, of course.

No, we'll be there.

Bye -bye.

Dr. Dorothy.

Rachel's father is flying in from Ohio
in the morning.

Mr. Roy.

I'm Dorothy Harcroft. I'm sorry we're
meeting under such painful

This is A .J. and Rick Simon. They're
private investigators.

They're working on Rachel's case.

Please sit down.

I guess I should have been expecting
this. Lots of strangers.

People who didn't know Rachel.

Well, we have met some of the people who
did know her. She must have been a

very...

Wonderful, sensitive young lady. When
she was a little girl, she wanted to be

doctor.

I'm afraid I can't be objective about
this.

She came to California.

And then she met you.

And now she's dead.

Mr. Roy.

I can't pretend that I understand what
she was doing.

Or what you were doing.

She helped a lot of my patients.

Is that why you hired them?

To hush everything up and protect your
reputation?

Mr. Royce, we're trying to find out who
did this.

We could do that a lot better if you'd
help us.

It's not much of a consolation for a
daughter, is it?

No, sir.

I guess it's all anybody can do now.

Before she died, um...

large cash deposit was made Rachel's
bank account.

Did you give her money?

No. Rachel never let me help her out
with money. She was very independent.

Would you happen to know the names of
any of her friends outside of the

The only friend I know was Lila Simpson.

They went to high school together, and
then Lila moved to San Diego about the

same time as Rachel.

I know Lila.

She owned the lunch trucks that come
around every day.

Can you think of anyone else?

Dara, if you need to talk, come to my
office.

I'm fine, Carl. Thanks anyway.

Kind of manipulative, don't you think,
Carl?

What are you talking about?

It's a great way to handle a rival. Just
manage to show up when she's feeling

upset. Plant the suggestion that you're
stronger.

You're awfully cynical.

It's all right.

She won't fall for it.

Well, that was a disaster.

Guy was a disaster.

Well, he's got to blame somebody.

Maybe it'll make the next few days
easier for him.

Thanks for saying that.

It is possible that his daughter would
still be alive if she hadn't met me.

Are you thinking like a psychiatrist?

You know that's not true.

No, you can't control everything.

It's because something bad happens
doesn't always mean it's because you

mistake.

This time it may be.

And we may find out it had nothing to do
with you or the clinic.

Okay, that'll be two bucks.

Here you go.

Thanks a lot. Thank you. You have a nice
day. Oh, you too. Thanks.

Looking for Lila Simpson, lady who owns
this truck.

Yeah, I'm Lila. Chef, hostess, Major D,
since my driver got the flu.

Well, we were wondering if you could
take a couple of minutes to talk to us

about Rachel Royce.

Dr. Dorothy Harcroft hired us to
investigate Miss Royce's murder, and we

appreciate anything you could tell us.

So long as you don't ask anything
personal.

I'm afraid if it's not personal, it
won't be very much help.

Rachel's father gave us your name.

He said that...

You and she were very good friends. Did
you see each other often? She wanted me

to go out with her the night that she
was killed.

I wish I had.

You mean she had planned to be out. She
wasn't expecting anyone.

She had tickets to a charity dinner. I
had a date and it fell through, and when

I called her and she didn't answer, I
thought that she had gone.

Would you happen to know the names of
any of her other friends?

Julie Bronson.

Rachel and I were old friends. Julie and
Rachel did the same work.

Julie was a sex surrogate, too? Yes, and
if you disapprove of that, I'd

appreciate it if you'd keep it to
yourself. Rachel was really a wonderful

person. I'm sure she was.

Does Julie, does she work for Dr.
Harcroft also?

Uh -huh.

Julie and Rachel were really close.

They took vacations together. They were
even saving up money to buy a house

together.

So presumably they both had a recent
need of money.

You think Julie would be willing to talk
to us? I don't know.

I don't know if she's been avoiding me
or I've been avoiding her. I just know

that we really don't like talking about
this.

Well, thank you. Thank you very much.
You're welcome.

Well, we got two ladies who needed a lot
of money, and one of those ladies gets

killed the day that money arrives.

Well, I guess this is going to look like
blackmail after all.

20 years. of analysis is not a very
sensible way to deal with sexual

dysfunctions. There are more direct ways
that work in a more reasonable amount

of time.

You're referring, of course, to sexual
surrogates.

Well, that is one option for some
patients.

Isn't it also true that quite often
there's a problem with transference?

For laymen, that means that patients
quite often fall in love with their

therapists. Well, that almost never
happens. You see, it is the job of the

surrogate to ensure that the client does
not become too dependent upon her.

I see.

What about the sex surrogate that was
recently murdered?

Isn't it quite possible or even probable
that a patient suffering from

transference killed her?

No.

I personally cleared every patient she
saw.

As you can see, my methods are under
attack.

Next, it'll be individual patients.

I hope you two have some good ideas.

We would like you to send Julie Bronson
a new client.

It's still possible that Rachel was
blackmailing someone.

Julie was her best friend.

They were pooling their resources.

It's conceivable she was involved in the
scheme.

We just want to lay out a little bait
and see if she takes a bite.

You must be Mr. Vandegrift. Yes, I'm
Ernest, Ernest Vandegrift. Please come

Ernest. Thank you.

I was considered of you to bring me
flowers, Ernest.

But this isn't a date.

Oh.

Dorothy told me that you were very
uncomfortable around women.

Are you feeling that way now, Ernest?
Yes.

Well, I'm here to show you that women
are people, too.

Why don't you close your eyes, try to
relax, and just touch my face.

Close your eyes.

Oh.

Is everything all right, Ernest?

Yeah.

You have nice hair.

That was very good, Ernest.

Do you want to take a little break?

What do you do for a living?

Nothing.

Nothing?

No.

I'm lucky I don't have to work.

But my passion is 18th century
epistolary novels.

I collect first editions.

Oh, that's very nice.

Do you want to start again?

This is all confidential, isn't it? I
mean, if my father ever got wind of

this, I'd be off the board of directors
real fast.

Absolutely, Ernest.

And I'm not a psychiatrist.

You don't have to tell me about your
personal life.

Okay, but no one will ever know I've
been here or anything I say to you. No

will.

Now this time, when you touch my face,
I'm going to touch yours, okay?

You remind me of a girl I used to know.

Someone I feel very angry about, very
confused about.

Were you shy with her, Ernest?

I don't know. I guess.

I don't think she ever really knew me.

I guess the reason I'm... The reason I'm
angry is because she didn't want me.

I mean, who I really am. She kept trying
to change me.

Sounds like this relationship stirred up
a lot of deep emotions in you.

Yes.

You're doing very well, Ernest.

What?

I... I thought, you know, sex organs
were supposed to have sex.

Do you want to have sex, Ernest?

And? And what?

She was nice.

Seconds.

I don't know how to make these. They're
almost edible.

I know he's in a strange mood when he
compliments my cooking. The boy

does not want to kiss and tell.

There was no kissing to tell of.

There was no sex.

Uh -huh. None.

You played cards.

We did a lot of...

Touching.

Touching's nice. No, no, no, no.

Like face and hands and feet.

Oh, no, come on. It was educational. I
can imagine.

No, it was... The sex comes later. If I
go back, which I'm not going to because

I don't need to.

If it works, don't fix it. That's right.

Get back to the feet.

This is not the kind of girl to have
anything to do with blackmail.

Are they ever. We don't have anything
else, AJ.

None of Rachel's clients has a
motorcycle listed with the DMV, and the

deposit slip didn't have a signature,
just an initial.

Well, I guess it's time to put Rex to
work.

and you are Julie Bronson?

Yes, but if you're selling a security
service, you'd better take my landlord's

number. No, ma 'am, I'm here to deliver
something to you. May I come in?

Sure.

This is just standard procedure.

It detects certain electronic devices.

This is a cashier's check for $5 ,000.
You'll receive one like it each week.

Now, since you don't have any video
equipment, I'll see what I can provide.

Sometimes audio tapes are just as good.
What are you talking about?

Good for what?

Yesterday afternoon, a gentleman named
Ernest Vandergrift visited you here.

Just how did you know that?

Mr. Vandergrift, Fifter pays me to know
things about Mr.

Vandergrift.

I'm going to pay you so that I'll know
more.

Get out of here.

Now, take your equipment and your money
and get out of here.

You tell Mr.

Vandergrift's sister that I intend to
tell Ernest and the police about this,

okay? And if I ever see your face
again... Go back inside and lock the

What? I'm a private investigator. I'm
working on a murder of Rachel Royce. Go

back inside and lock the door.

What was it for?

No, I think I'm a little early. I'm
always glad to see you, Lila.

Why didn't they have careers like this
when I was your age?

Good heavens.

Look what's coming.

Uniform in the cleaner, Nixon?

I prefer to be incognito on witness
protection assignments.

Is this the female individual Lieutenant
Brown informed me about?

Yes. Julie Bronson.

Hi, Nixon.

Is there a first name?

Yes, ma 'am, there is.

Well, sit down, Nixon. Julie's telling
us all about her work.

Thank you, ma 'am. I'll just stay over
here and blend in. With what?

So, anyway.

After the touching exercises, I work
with the men on erotic massage.

Uh, we've got to go, Rick.

Why? Uh, Dr. Dorothy is waiting for us.
Nixon, you'll stay here keeping an eye

on everything. Rick, let's go.

Bye -bye, Julie. Uh, Mom?

When you were over at... Shut up, Rick.

Erotic massage?

Yes. You'd be surprised how quickly men
respond to stimulation of certain

erogenous zones.

You know, different men have different
zones.

Like women.

Yeah. I, uh...

I have to go call a precinct now.

I thought they'd never leave.

All right, start again and give me all
the details.

Unbelievable.

Insects of the world collection.

Sterling silver, actual size.

Oh, yeah, Carlos has got that.

Get a different insect every month.

Listen to this. Did you know that you
can make a cherry pie without eggs and

without cherries? All you need is
crackers.

Wonderful.

Isn't that Lila Simpson?

The catering lady?

Yeah.

Does Lila Simpson ever deliver to the
offices here?

Never. I know because I asked her to
once. Why?

Is she a patient?

Why are you interested in Lila Simpson?

Because we've been unable to prove that
the motive was blackmail.

And we suspect that somebody may have
put that money into Rachel's account in

order to make it look like it was.

If Lila's a patient here, then there's a
connection between Rachel's work and

her personal life.

Talk to you for a moment? See, I am
really busy right now.

It's important.

Okay.

You're seeing one of the psychiatrists
at the clinic.

Boy, you are really a detective, or
maybe love is obvious.

Love? You said that I was seeing him. I
thought that you knew. No, I meant as a

patient. Well, that too.

In fact, that's how we met. I was having
one of my depressions, and Rachel

thought I should see a psychiatrist.

So she sent you to see Dr. Van Adams?

No, Carl.

Who? Carl Chadway.

Chadway? He specializes in depression.
He's famous in his field.

Chadway.

Good evening.

I didn't hear you coming.

I'm a little jumpy tonight.

Sorry I startled you.

As long as you're here, can you let me
into Dr.

Chadway's office? He was supposed to
leave a file for me. I guess he forgot.

Sure.

Just let me know when you're through so
I can lock it up again. Thanks, Dan. I

shouldn't be long.

Simpson.

Lila.

Does he drive a motorcycle?

Uh -huh.

Okay.

Um... I don't want you to think I'm
prying, but... Did Rachel know

that you were having an affair with
Chadway?

Well...

We're keeping it quiet, but, yes, Rachel
knew.

You say you're keeping it quiet. Did he
ask you to keep it quiet?

Yes. And when did Rachel find out?

On the day that she was killed.

Okay.

Thank you.

Oh, one other thing. Where could I find
Chadway?

He's working late tonight.

What are you doing in my office?

Looking for business?

I'm trying to find out what's going on
around here. By looking through my files

at night?

Well, if I had asked you, would you have
shown them to me?

Probably not.

It would hardly be ethical.

Seems to be something on your mind.

You saw Lila Simpson today.

Yet there's no notation in her file.

As a matter of fact, there's no notation
for the last eight visits.

Her condition hasn't changed. She's
maintaining nicely.

Her depression is under control.

For the moment, yes.

Then why did you change her medication?

And isn't prescribing barbiturates for a
depressive dangerous?

She was becoming dependent on
antidepressants. I saw your telephone

Why did Rachel call you the day she was
murdered?

There's not much point in playing games,
is there?

Rachel threatened to expose me.

I had to kill her.

You here to check the plant?

My name is Simon.

private investigator.

I'm looking into the murder of one of
Dr. Dorothy Harcroft's associates.

I would like to talk to Dr. Chadway.

You just met him, but Dr. Dorothy's in
his office.

Want to talk to her?

Yes, please.

Come on, we'll give her a call.

It looks like she's on the phone.

When that light goes out, we'll give her
a call.

Motorcycle's in the parking lot.

I thought you said Chadway left.

Well, that's what I thought.

Dr. Dorothy's in his office.

Hello?

Hello, this is the operator. I have an
emergency call. Hello?

Get her on the phone and get her out of
there.

I really have no choice.

I'll kill her. Drop the knife.

Drop it.

Back off.

I swear I'll kill her. Be the last thing
you do.

Tell Cecilia I said thank you. I really
enjoyed this. Okay.

Sexual life of stockbrokers.

By the way, I saw Lila yesterday.

Oh, yeah? How's she doing? She's better.
It's a difficult time for her, but

she's a strong person.

Yeah.

Well, listen, we're going to have to
run. We've got clients waiting.

We do?

Yeah. Come on. Clients?

Mm -hmm.

Okay. Bye -bye, Julie. Thank you. Bye
-bye.

Okay, Rick.

What clan?

We're going to a victory party.

Somebody won something?

Not yet, but the Carioca Sisters are a
cinch to win in a contest of strength

skill. Carioca Sisters? Aren't they the
mud wrestling tag team?

Yeah, but I think they can handle the
transition.

To what? Wet t -shirt contest?

Wrestling in a vat of olive oil.

It's a grueling sport, but they've got
the gifts and they've got the desire.

That's what I've heard. Mainly the
desire.

That's what I've heard. Yeah.

Sorry, but I have to go register for a
class at university. AJ, wait a minute

now. You've got the opportunity here to
escort a world's champion to the

winner's circle. I'm sure she'll be able
to slide there on her own.

Look, I know I told you that you needed
to slow down, but you're getting

dangerously close to neutral. I have a
friend in the registrar's office. What

did this friend say?

That the Tuesday night section of
Economics 501 is full of some very

people. Are you nuts?

Some very interesting female people.

Learning is a lifelong pleasure.
