Is there
something
I can do for you? No, no, thanks. I was just...
Here you go, honey.
Uh, Captain Reedley?
Yes. Oh, I'm glad I caught you. I thought back at the plant that Mr.
flight left at 9 .15.
9 .30. Is this for Mr. Foreman? No, Mr. Kessler said just chuck it in the
baggage compartment.
A messenger will pick it up when you land in Washington. Gotcha.
Would you sign here, please, down by the X? Sure.
Mr. Daniel Craig.
Mr. Daniel Craig.
Here you go. Thanks a lot.
Have a nice flight now.
Thank you.
Oh, Mr. Foreman.
Good to have you aboard.
How are you?
This way, to the left.
Kessler. Now, Mr. Colton and I are still in conference.
He'll call down when he's ready to leave.
Your car is here.
You know, your reliable friend isn't very reliable. Wasn't he going to call
finish the job?
Why don't you go on home? I'll wait.
Colton Kessler Foreman.
A triumvirate.
And then there were two.
Will you please go home?
How's your friend going to do it?
I wouldn't know.
Knife, club, noose?
Tell the chauffeur Mr. Colton's on his way.
The FBI.
A Quinn Martin Warner Brothers production.
Starring Ephraim Zimbalist Jr.
Also starring Philip Abbott.
Stephen Brooks.
With guest stars Diane Baker.
Murray Hamilton.
And special guest star Fritz Weaver.
Tonight's episode.
Camel's nose.
A routine inquiry into an airplane crash quickly became an all -out
investigation of four separate acts of murder.
Eyewitnesses told special agents of the FBI that the Colton Industries plane had
exploded in midair.
And a residue of powder discovered on sections of the baggage compartment was
forwarded to the FBI lab in Washington.
Analysis showed it had come from dynamite with a high concentration of
nitrate. A mixture as deadly as TNT.
Hi, Jane. Hi.
He's on the phone.
With Mr. Hoover.
Inspector?
Did you see this?
Yes, I did.
You knew him too, didn't you, Inspector?
Mr. Foreman? No.
Yes, don't you remember?
He and his wife and Mr. Oh, good, good.
Mr. and Mrs. Colton all had lunch with Mr. Ward one day last summer.
I remember the invitation. We were on a case.
So you're a friend of Mr. Ward's?
Oh, I don't think they were close friends. They knew each other.
He was treasurer of Colton Industries, and Art's known Mrs. Colton since she
a little girl. I think he ever worried the wedding, didn't he? Mm -hmm.
Sweetest woman. Just a darling girl. Oh, good. He's free now.
Well, by the way, Hewlett of Defense was on the other line. I told the secretary
that you wanted to talk to him.
She said she'd have him contact you here when he got back.
Dee, did you get anything on that Detroit call?
I got through to their home, but the maid said Mrs. Colton hadn't come in
I left a message.
Oh, good.
Could you get me an aspirin, please?
Yes, sir.
What have you got, Lewis?
The lab report indicates it was dynamite. Probably in the luggage
Thought I'd assign Thompson to it.
What are you on now, Lewis?
Robert's extortion.
Couldn't Thompson handle that?
Yeah. Was he good?
I'd like to wrap this up as soon as possible.
I'd like for you to get out there tomorrow morning if you could.
All right.
You'll probably run into some crackpot or a madman.
But if it should be an act of suicide or murder, we'll put everything we've got
on it.
Colton's got half a dozen government defense contracts.
A company like that should be above suspicion.
Hello, Ward.
No, it's for you, Jim.
Thank you.
Hello. You're investigating all the insurance aspects.
Yeah, Jim's already started on it.
Lewis, does it seem a little unusual to you that the treasurer of a company
would be taking a nighttime flight to Washington?
Yes, it did.
As a matter of fact, I have a call into Hewlett.
The foreman did have an appointment with the defense. He'd know about it.
Well, don't get me wrong.
Don't think for a minute I think there's anything shaky about Colton Industries.
Oh, thanks, Jim.
Colton's a good man.
I know him.
Nevertheless, it's an angle I want to have thoroughly investigated by the top
investigator in the Bureau, because I do know some of the people involved.
You understand exactly what I mean? You bet.
All right, Dave.
KBL noon flight arrives Metropolitan 1 .40 p .m. All right, I'll take care of
now.
Yes? Mr. Hewlett for Inspector Erskine, and I have Mrs. Colton now on two.
All right.
It's Hewlett for you.
Yes, Dave?
Uh, Lou, in regard to your question about, uh, Paul Foreman? Yes?
Well, now, Foreman did call here yesterday afternoon.
I wasn't in, and when I tried to get him back, his secretary said he'd left.
Dave, what are Colton's outstanding defense contracts?
Well, their biggest is, uh, an airplane parts deal.
Gyroscope components.
How big? Could they go under without it? They might.
What's the delivery date?
Well, let's see. The first consignment's already... Well, it's already on its
way to Vietnam.
Okay, thanks.
Lewis, stick around.
Hello, Elise?
Oh, Arthur, how good to hear your voice.
I can't tell you how shocked I was at the news, Elise.
How's Mrs. Foreman taking it?
Awfully hard.
It all happened so quickly.
Yeah.
And now the newspapers are hinting that someone might have put a bomb on board.
And that's just driving her crazy.
Arthur, that's something your people would investigate, isn't it?
Well, that's what I told Steve. I said, darling, don't worry.
The FBI will have the whole thing cleared up in a couple of weeks.
Why should Steve worry?
Oh, they're bidding on some big new contract.
He said now all he needed was a phony, hysterical newspaper scandal because the
FBI was investigating Colton Industries.
Well, I said to him, don't fret.
I said I'd be in Washington on Thursday for Mom's birthday.
So I just look in on you and use my enormous influence and make you call off
whole thing.
You think you could manage that?
Oh, sure.
All I'd have to do is to open my mouth and you'd slap me into jail for trying
bribe a federal official.
Isn't that a great relationship? You love me, but you'd flush me right down
drain if you had to.
It'd break my heart.
Some consolation.
Well, you're going to come see me anyway now, huh?
Oh, I suppose.
Well, good -bye, sweetheart, and give my best to Steve.
Yes, good -bye.
Hey, Art, why don't I handle it?
I could send my argument straight through to the associate director.
No need for you to get involved in it.
Well, they're my friends.
Am involved
You ought to eat something.
You should have shown up at the commissary.
Could you eat?
The point is, you should have come by.
People wanted to express their sympathy.
Line workers, office girls, everybody like Paul.
They all knew what good friends we were.
Look, Steve, it's over with.
Rooting about it's not going to change a thing.
Four people.
Just leave it to me, my junior partner says. If Paul Foreman won't listen to
reason, well, we'll just get this reliable friend.
He'll take care of everything before he turns us all in.
Well, I guess we're lucky Paul Foreman didn't take a transatlantic liner to
Europe. Your reliable friend would have opened up the Seacocks. I thought it was
a tragedy, but it's ended.
Will you stop? What's ended?
Deaths.
They haven't even begun yet.
the parts back. They're not out of the country. No, why not? We could retool.
See, we could say we made an honest mistake.
Look, I changed government specification sheets.
That's a very difficult mistake to make, honestly.
I changed maximum stress chart. Listen, it's more important than that. No, you
listen.
I came in this room yesterday and I said, Steve, it's sink or swim.
I can't keep Paul quiet any longer.
Shall I have him killed?
And you said yes.
Honest mistake.
We had our choice. We made it.
And how many planes are going to crash because of it?
No planes are going to crash.
No planes are going to crash. Eighty -five percent of those parts are
Eighty -five percent. Will you drop it? Too late to argue about it.
Yes? I have a call for you, Mr. Kessler. A Mr. Milton.
Will you talk to him there?
No, I'll take it in my office.
Who's Milton?
Nobody. I'll handle it.
Yeah?
The mail just came.
I just called to thank you.
You there, Mr. Kessler?
Yeah, I'm here.
Well, what's the matter?
Oh, I don't know.
Nothing much.
I asked you to do me a little favor, quiet, simple.
You spread it all over the front pages.
Hey, hey, hey, come on, come on.
You knock a guy off that ridge in an alley, you're going to spread it over
front pages.
But I thought this one was kind of clever.
I mean, getting your dame is one thing, Mr. Kessler, but a contract like this,
you know what I mean?
I paid for it.
Did I get paid enough?
You're going to give me trouble now, Billy.
I guess I am, Mr. Gessler.
I mean, it seems like it's always one doggone thing after another, doesn't it?
I'll be talking to you.
Care to join me for lunch, Mike?
Now that it's all settled and over with.
These are the...
Obviously exploded fragments from the crash site.
Most of them came from the rear right corner of the baggage compartment.
And this?
I've no luck in matching that so far.
I can see it's been exposed to intense heat, but it doesn't seem to have been
part of the plane.
Lou, I've just been talking with the local insurance... Oh, it's Mr. Parker,
Detroit. Doug, how do you do? How are you?
Well, there's not much to report, really. The foreman's secretary had no
coverage at all.
The pilot and the co -pilot had the usual company policy.
And Foreman had about $80 ,000 worth, but the contracts had been drawn up back
in the early 50s. So there's really nothing unusual, nothing suspicious.
Doug, may I see the flight manifest, please?
No baggage.
Not unless you count the attache case Mr. Foreman brought aboard.
Has that been recovered?
Yes, sir. It's pretty badly charred.
But there was no indication it had been in the general explosion area.
What was in the case, Doug? Did he know that?
Weren't able to tell.
I've sent the ashes to the lab.
What about airport security?
Did someone put a bomb aboard the plane before takeoff?
I don't think so, Inspector.
They maintain a tight patrol here.
I interviewed the guard who was outside the Colton hangar. He said the only one
who'd approached the baggage compartment was the pilot himself.
And he doesn't listen to me.
Might just have been checking.
I could talk with the operations officer, gate guard, stewardesses who
have seen him.
Probably not if he carried any. And have that sent to Washington for analysis.
And get me a list of employees discharged within the last year or so.
Anyone who might have had a grudge against an executive or even the company
itself. All right.
Darling, darling, it's all right.
It's all right now, yes. I know.
I know.
I thought I was... What?
What time is it?
It's almost three.
The afternoon?
I can't just lie.
Easy. Just take it easy and I'll be back.
I'll get some aspirin.
Here.
Easy.
last night.
You locked yourself in the den and you drank a brand new fifth of bourbon.
You have to get back to the office.
Why?
Your best friend's dead more than a little.
The company won't go to pieces.
I wouldn't have awakened you now except Mike's here.
I told him to wait until Lamar, but he said he had to see you.
Now, just a minute. Just a minute. Darling, please.
Please. Let the pills work.
How's the headache now?
It's all right.
It's better.
Steve. Steve?
Listen, why don't we just take off?
Go around the world while there's still one left.
I can't. You can't? You don't want to.
Send Mr. Kessler up right away, would you please?
You've made your money. You've built your company. Yeah, I've made my money.
I've made my commitments.
I've made some wrong decisions.
How wrong?
Well, he could lose everything if we're not careful.
Well, I wouldn't care.
romanticize loan payments and leftovers at least. They're not romantic.
But I still wouldn't care.
I love you.
I hope I'm not disturbing you.
Now, Steve, I don't think your wife likes me.
Does that wound you?
Of course.
You're too sensitive for your own good, Mike.
Yeah, no question.
That's why I can't make important decisions alone anymore.
There's only one important decision that concerns me, and that's that shipment
to Vietnam.
It's too late to stop. It's too late for a lot of things, including Billy
Milton.
What does that mean?
He called me at home again last night.
He told me what he wants.
How much?
Ten thousand.
Pay him.
Yeah?
What about the next ten thousand? And the next?
Pay him.
What else can we do?
There is another way to handle it.
I know, I know.
It doesn't appeal to our urbane taste, does it?
But the more you think about it, the more sense it makes.
Our lives depend on this one creep keeping his mouth shut.
Think about it, Steve.
I won't do it until you say yes, but think about it.
Think about it, Steve.
Okay, now, where were we?
Uh, yes, Nancy, you were telling me about the customer who seemed to be
for Captain Reedley. Oh, yes.
Well, I noticed him because he kept looking at the clock.
And then he'd been here quite a while without buying anything.
Ah, reminds me.
Oh, you don't have to buy anything.
I mean, you can if you want to, but... I want to.
I mean, I'm just tickled to death to talk to the FBI.
Here you go.
Thank you. You're welcome.
Do you want some candy?
Uh, no, thank you.
Anyway, what was I saying?
Uh, yeah, anyway, you were telling me about the customer who went up to talk
Captain Reedley when Reedley came out of operations, right? Yes.
Did he give Reedley anything, like a suitcase or a package, anything?
I don't think so.
What did this man look like?
Oh, he was about 40.
Kind of heavy set.
You know, sort of beat up.
Like, uh, like what? Like a black eye, that sort of thing? No.
With the ear, what is it called?
Cauliflower?
That's right, cauliflower.
Wait a minute.
He did give Captain Reedley something.
It was a case or something.
Did you talk to San Francisco?
Yes.
The exact time of departure is classified information, of course.
The Air Force assures me the shipment's already over the Pacific.
Look, Steve, I suggest we drop this whole subject.
I made the call you asked me to make. Any more unusual interest on our part
people are going to remember it.
You mean they may see a connection when planes start falling out of the sky? No
planes are going to fall.
Have you given any thought to the other problem?
Here's $10 ,000 for your friend Milton.
Of course, you know this won't be the last $10 ,000.
You could be wrong. You said yourself he's just a small -time punk.
No, no, I'm not wrong.
It's precisely because he's been a small -time punk all his life that he's never
going to let us off the hook.
He's made it big.
Then why'd you use him?
Could I advertise in the classifieds?
Look, Steve.
Do you want to give up the company you've spent 20 years of your life to
He would never go that far.
Well, that's what he's going to want.
How can you be so sure?
Oh, believe me, I'm sure.
He would never do a thing like that. That's what he's going to want.
Everything we've got.
Everything, Steve.
You just let me handle this.
It's a fairly uncommon alloy.
82 parts aluminum, 16 parts zinc, two parts copper with traces of partinium.
What's its commercial use?
Lightweight carrying cases.
The manufacturer is Wyeth Materials, Wilmington.
They gave us a list of three firms in the Detroit area that use the product
extensively.
Metallurgy.
Mr. Ward, you're calling Detroit's ready now.
Lewis. Yes, Arthur.
In regard to that unidentified fragment you sent in.
Yes. It was part of a lightweight carrying case.
Art, could you possibly get a lead on the manufacturer?
We've turned up a witness who thinks she saw a man hand a case of some kind to
the pilot just before he boarded the plane.
She half remembers him signing for it.
Well, it just happens that the lab has already given me a list of companies who
use this particular item in Detroit.
You got a pencil?
Just a second.
That's Smith Precision Tools, Halton Fairland Incorporated, and Morgan
Cold Industries wasn't one of them, huh?
It wasn't. I'll check on all three.
None of them, Nancy?
Well, I don't know.
Gee, I'm sorry.
I just can't be sure.
All I can remember is that ear.
Straighten out that backhand, Fred, before you challenge me.
Then I'll give you three and serve.
Oh, sorry.
Mr. Adams?
Yeah. Inspector Erskine, I called last night.
Oh, yes.
Mr. Morgan said you'd be by.
I told him I hoped that you wouldn't want to go rummaging around in my files
like a bull in the china closet.
Oh, would you mind? I missed my breakfast.
Would you care to join me? No, thank you. Mr. Adams, do you list your
by prior occupation as well as sex, age, and so forth?
Oh, yes, yes.
I'd like to know if you have any form of boxers or wrestlers working in Morgan
Aircraft now.
Well, we don't use a computer, Mr.
Erskine.
However, if Mr.
Morgan insists on it, we'll put some extra people on it and have an answer
you and say, oh, a week or ten days. Would that be satisfactory?
No, it wouldn't.
Hello.
Neil.
Erskine. Lou, this is Jim.
I picked up a Detroit PD homicide locate this morning.
Yeah. A saloon keeper named Billy Milton was found beaten to death in his own
bar about 9 .30 this morning.
He was killed sometime last night.
Used to be a professional middleweight about 20 years ago.
Any motive?
There's nothing established yet. There was a lot of money lying around the bar,
but that wasn't even touched.
What about Prince?
The whole place was wiped clean.
Except for a pool ball that they found stuck in the drain behind the bar.
Had a couple of good care Laytons, and they weren't Miltons.
Oh, yeah, by the way, a neighbor of Milton's said that he held a part -time
as a security guard.
Where? Well, he wasn't sure, but I was wondering if it could have been Morgan
Aircraft.
Okay.
Ask your witness to take a look at the body. See if she can make an
identification.
All right.
Sir Adams, would you please check your files for William Milton?
He may have worked here as a security guard.
Milton.
I think you're way off base, Inspector.
I'm positive we never had a Milton here.
Milton. Milton, Milton, Milton, Milton, Milton.
William Milton, security guard.
Ex -boxer? Ex -boxer.
And was very highly recommended.
From where?
Colton Industries.
Personal reference by Mr. Kessler.
You, uh... You use a... case here made by Wyeth.
Yes.
Could Milton have had access to those cases?
Yes, probably. Why?
Did he steal one?
He may have.
Oh, terrible.
Terrible. They cost almost four dollars apiece.
How lucky for us that you were able to catch the thief.
Thanks for your cooperation.
Inspector.
I was only joking.
After all, even the FBI is human, isn't it?
Elise!
Arthur. Come in. It's so good to see you. Come in.
Gene,
this will be fine if you make that correction. I probably came at the wrong
time. Now, if you're busy, just tell me and I'll... You'll do what?
Kick and scream and hold your breath until you're blue in the face?
Why, I never did that. Oh, yes, you did.
Right here in this building.
20 years ago.
How's the family?
Wonderful.
Julie is old enough for kindergarten.
So she brings home all sorts of interesting things. Maps, drawings,
snakes. Goddess snakes? Yes.
Steve's working terribly hard, but that's his life story.
How's Mrs.
Foreman taking it?
Oh, my.
I spoke to her on the phone last night. She said that bureau agents were going
to interview her today.
Yes, that's right.
The paper seems to feel that's very significant, an inspector of the FBI
us. Well, I tell you, Elise, we get that in any investigation.
It's not just the investigation, Arthur. It's the headlines, the newscasters,
the things that they hint at.
Well, Steve's very worried.
He thinks that this could hurt the company badly.
I don't know.
Destroy confidence.
I mean, you have a lot of power.
A lot of responsibility.
Aren't they the same thing?
No, they're not.
You know, there was a time, Elise, when the Bureau had power without
responsibility.
They have the power to investigate or to refrain from investigating.
And a lot of people ask for favors.
People with influence of one sort or another.
Political or personal.
And sometimes those people got what they asked for.
Did your father ever tell you the story of the camel with the cold nose?
Is that the one who persuaded the driver to let him put his nose inside the
tent? That's right. Yes. And then came the head.
And then the shoulders, and finally the driver was kicked out. And the tent
belonged to the camel. Yes.
Well, we'd nearly lost the tent before Director Hoover took over.
And it's taken a long time to get it back.
To clean things up.
People still say, why don't you bend just a little bit?
Or wink once or twice.
It's an awfully big camel out there.
You know, Lise, investigations clear people, too.
I know. I know hardly.
You think someone may have wanted Paul Foreman dead?
Paul didn't have any enemies.
When did you talk to him last, Mr. Kessler?
Oh, about 4 .30 that afternoon.
He said he was going down to Washington. I asked him if there was anything I
could help him with.
He said no, and just concerned an auditing procedure that he'd like to
some changes in.
Just a routine business trip?
Yes, as far as I know.
I wish Steve was here. He might be able to fill you in on it a little better.
Well, sit down. Sit down, John.
Thank you.
Where is Mr.
Colton now, sir?
He went to the airport to meet his wife.
She's flying back from Washington.
Mr. Kessler, do you know a man named William Milton?
Yes? Can you talk to the superintendent at plant number two, Mr. Kessler?
Oh, ask him to hold, please.
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry, what was that name again?
William Milton.
I believe he used to work here as a security guard.
You see, I might remember him if I saw him.
Did we let him go?
That's our understanding, yes.
Well, I'll check into the files.
Now, if you'd excuse me just a moment, gentlemen.
Certainly.
Yes?
Yes, Frank.
Very short memory, considering the...
Warmth of the recommendation.
Very short.
Call identification.
Ask them to run a check of those pool hole fingerprints in the non -criminal
file. Names?
Michael Kessler, Stephen Colton. All right.
Oh, right. I'll come down and see you a little later, huh?
Okay, Tom, good, thanks.
The girl positively identified Milton as the man she saw at the airport. Thank
you. The Detroit police have any racket on him?
Yes, sir. A list of minor offenses going back to 1951.
Last booking, February 5th, 1965.
Felony assault.
Wait a minute. The case was dropped on the plane and failed to appear in court.
February the 5th? That's the day he left Colton Industries.
Same day, huh?
Obviously the cause for dismissal.
You know, when he applies for a job at Morgan Aircraft, he's warmly recommended
by Michael Kessler, the man who dismissed him.
Why? What, a personal favor of some kind?
You know, that could make more sense than you think.
Rumor has it that you could get almost anything at Milton's bar.
A couple of scalp tickets on the 50 -yard line to an expensive companion.
Kessler must have had a lot of visiting firemen to take care of.
And he was doing his friend a favor, huh?
Question is, was his friend doing him a favor when he delivered a bomb to
Captain Reilly?
Telephone call for Mr. Stephen Colton.
Mr. Stephen Colton.
Telephone, please.
Hello, this is Mr. Colton.
Is there a call for me?
Yes, sir.
Hello. Where have you been?
Who is this, Mike?
I went to dinner. Elisa's plane has been delayed. What's the matter?
I don't want to talk on the phone. Come by the office now.
Elisa was due in any moment.
Drop her off at your house on the way.
He just came in.
We got a positive ident on the thumb and fingerprints on the pool ball.
Michael Kessler.
All right. We'll notify Detroit Homicide.
And contact Colton.
Make an appointment for him to come into the office tomorrow morning.
By that time, Kessler should be in custody and booked on the homicide
We'll make arrangements to question both of them.
Anything yet on the ashes and forms briefcase?
Yes.
It was specifications for the gyroscope.
We restored an eraser.
New alterations.
And there was a further change to satisfy government testing standards.
All we needed was a motive.
Now, Lewis, I'm leaving the office now. I'll be in Detroit in two hours.
All right, there's no reason why you should... I know.
I suppose you or any other agent in the Bureau could wrap this up.
But I want to do it, personally.
We'll meet you at the airport.
Douglas Parker, FBI.
Well, this is Mrs. Colton. My husband isn't home right now. Could I help you?
Do you know where I could reach you, Mrs. Colton?
Well, I don't. I'm sorry.
I see.
Would you care to leave a message?
No, we'll check back later. Thank you.
All right. How are you? Did they pick up Kessler?
No, with that guy's apartments, they got no sign of him yet.
What about Colton? Jim's gone. I called Colton's house again.
The maid thinks that he's gone to the office and his wife's gone after him.
Let's try that.
Switchboard's closed.
Well, let's go.
Can't we stop running scared and took this thing squarely in hand?
Steve. You'd have to settle down and get a hold of yourself. You'd realize we
have no choice.
We have to brave it out. Braving it out? It has nothing to do with braving it
out. Don't listen to me.
If they come back here again, it's all over.
I can't face them anymore.
Oh, yes, you can. You have to.
Who are you to tell me what I have to do and what... Please.
The FBI telephoned. They wanted to talk to you. They wanted to talk to me.
Go home, Elise. Go home.
What's over, Steve? Please go home.
No, why should she?
Please go home.
She's overheard part of it. She'll guess the rest. Please go home, Elise. No,
no, no, no, no. Tell her the truth.
She's your wife.
You've given her a fine home, three cars.
She's never asked where it came from before. Maybe it's something she knew.
Please be quiet. You see, Alicia, take on a little bit too much. You get a
little bit behind.
You have to make a delivery date. You make it. You lie a little. You cut a few
corners, but you make it.
Next corner, you cut a little deeper.
Then you alter a few specifications.
The plane?
Paul found out.
The plane went down because we hired a man to kill it.
Not we.
Oh, yes, Mrs. Colton, we.
I put the question to your husband, and he said, sure, kill my friend.
Elise.
Let me explain how it happened. Elise.
Elise!
She'll be all right. She'll keep her mouth shut.
You're sure, of course.
What?
Suppose she doesn't.
Keep her mouth shut.
I mean, she knows I have the warts, but she just accidentally let something slip
out.
That's your point.
Well, I mean, I don't think we can take that chance, Mike. Do you?
Huh? Quit it.
Huh? Too wild to consider? Why? She doesn't like you, you don't like her?
What will be next time?
Dynamite pool cues.
Where do you think you're going? The FBI.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, yes.
Right here, right now. Not after 20 years. Not after 20 years.
Wait a minute. 20 years?
No. Yes.
Ellie.
Ellie.
Either, either.
Take it easy.
What is it? What is it?
No.
It's Kessler. Come on in. Now stay in the car.
Stay in the car.
Elise! No!
No!
Steve. Is he dead?
It's my fault.
Steve, I'm sorry, but it's my duty to advise you that anything you say may be
used as evidence against you.
You have the right to remain silent.
All right. I know.
I know. I know. I know.
Arthur, you'd better call the defense department.
We shipped out 27 cases of component parts under purchase order
1953J.
85 % of the components are potentially defective.
Hairline fissures resurfaced and repainted.
Where are they now?
Vietnam.
That's what Paul Foreman wanted to tell the department.
That's why we killed him.
best friend.
My two best friends for
20 years.
And I killed both of them.
Come in, Mrs. Coleman.
Arthur's on his way.
Thank you.
Can I get you some coffee?
No, thank you.
Hello, Elise.
May I see him now?
Sure.
Mr. Rhodes and Mr. Parker are with him. They're going to have to stay with him.
They'll have a few minutes before the arraignment.
Thank you, Arthur.
He's my husband, and I can't... No.
Show Mrs. Colton to the commissioner's office, please.
Long night, Arthur.
The longest.

Alerted by the FBI, the Department of Defense flashed an emergency warning to
our overseas forces.

destroyed. No planes were lost.
