All right, freeze.

Just the way you are.

I'm warning you, this gun's got a very touchy trigger on it.

All right, move.

You people, all of you, get over there.

Now look here.

Anybody tries anything, you're a very dead man here.

You understand?

Okay, who's in charge here?

Come on.

Let's go. Come on, come on.

All right, anybody gets itchy, you just let them have it.

Wow.

For a minute, I thought we were gone. We did it. Oh, baby, we did it.

Tonight's episode, The Breakup.

On the morning of April 19th, two armed bandits walked into the Transworld Bank

of Norfolk, Virginia, shot a guard, and escaped with $27 ,000.

By the time FBI Inspector Lewis Erskine arrived to take charge of the

investigation, an inventory of the bank's vault had been completed and

business had resumed. The inventory revealed that the bulk of the robbery

consisted of newly minted $50 and $100 notes, which had just been issued by the

Federal Reserve Bank.

and had yet to be put into circulation, so the original sequence is undisturbed.

Bills are identifiable.

You've entered the denominations and serial numbers in the NCIC?

Yes, Inspector.

The information is also being distributed to law enforcement agencies,

and other financial institutions along the Atlantic seaboard.

How is the guard who was shot?

The hospital says he should make a complete recovery.

Good. Has the film from the bank cameras been developed yet?

They're doing it now, sir.

In the meantime, from interviews of witnesses...

We know that both suspects are in their early 20s, clean -shaven.

One who did the shooting is about six feet tall. The other one was called

Bernie. Inspector?

We found the getaway car.

It was abandoned about a mile down the road.

It's stolen.

I'll have it processed right away.

Incidentally, an informant says they sound like a pair who have been hitting

liquor stores here in the Newport News the last few weeks.

Both of them wore caps and dark glasses.

Big guy in a blue denim jacket, short guy in a peacoat.

How short?

No more than five feet five or six.

I get the impression it might be a boy.

Did the witnesses report anything unusual about his voice?

No. The big one is always the spokesman. The short one never says a word.

Honey, look at that.

Isn't that beautiful?

Well, I can smell this coming a mile away.

What? You're going to try and talk me into buying you some new clothes, right?

So what?

We can afford it now.

But you just bought a new car, remember?

Come on, that hardly made a dent.

Oh, Bernie.

Ever since we first got married, first time we get a few dollars ahead, the

first thing you want to do is go on a big spending spree.

We're right back where we started, scrambling around again.

So what's the hassle?

This time we've got real money.

Right. And I want to invest it.

I want to buy a big 100 -ton dump truck.

Oh, come on. You know the last job I was on?

Well, for a minute, he let me haul a few loads.

And he said I did real good.

Bernie, I want to build a future for us.

Well, a dump truck doesn't sound too exciting to me, but if that's what you

want, it's what you do.

Honey, look at that.

That color is great on me.

No, I try to give everything you want.

I know, I know.

But I got to think about us.

We just can't go on taking chances.

I know, I know.

I don't think I could take being in jail again.

Used to blow my mind being up there.

Used to think about you all the time.

If I hadn't had you out here waiting for me.

Honey, it wasn't easy for me either, you know.

I really missed you.

I guess maybe we weren't ever meant to be apart.

Where? We are going to go out and buy you a few outfits.

We can afford that anyway.

Come on.

Well, you'll get back to me as soon as you can.

Thank you.

The manager of a state liquor store in Newport News said that the suspects in

the bank camera picture look very much like the pair that robbed him just two

weeks ago.

While you were gone, an informant identified the toller when it's Todd

Bureau's checking for an identification record.

Inspector? It's Mr. Ward.

Put it on the speaker, would you, Mark? Yes,

Art. Lewis, the identification division matched Todd Rawson's fingerprint record

with the latents found in the getaway car.

What's the background information?

He served time for auto theft and armed robbery.

He completed his sentence less than a year ago. And something else.

The person he listed to be notified in case of emergency is his wife.

Name, Bernice.

That's interesting. He called his partner Bernie. Is there a record on

No, there isn't.

But we do have an old address. The Magnolia Apartments on North Benstock in

Ashland, Virginia.

I'll send Rawson's identification record and photographs to you in Richmond.

Thanks, Art.

Marvin, tell the Richmond office we're leaving for Ashland, and ask the U .S.

attorney if he'll authorize a warrant on Rawson.

Yes, sir.

Oh, it's adorable on you. Boy, it's just too perfect.

What do you think, honey? Do you like it?

Seems to me it's a lot like one of those other ones you got.

Oh, I don't think so.

Do you miss tea?

Not really, no.

Keep them both?

Don't forget now, we've got those other things we've got to do.

How much do we owe you, ma 'am? Well, I'll have it added up in two shakes.

Oh, Doris.

Doris, wrap these up nice and pretty now, won't you?

Oh, I love this.

Hey, I'm going to wear it, all right?

Will this be a charge, sir? No, I'll take it.

I'll only be a couple of minutes.

586 bucks, what's the matter with you?

Why didn't you stop me? You know I can't... All you had to do was say

Todd.

They don't quite look right to me.

They're too crisp. Oh, really, Mr. Ames? I can't believe they'd be passing

counterfeit money. Well, they're just not the type.

They're children.

Maybe.

Go keep them occupied.

Well, just a couple of minutes longer.

The package is almost ready.

And your change is coming. Thank you.

Oh, can I show you our shoe department, dear? We have some of the most darling

boots.

Tom, show the young lady our new evening boot, will you?

Sirius?

1971A, serial number

B78127222.

I like them very much. I think I'll take these. I think they look just great.

Thank you, Ben.

Hello, Dan.

The losses haven't been seen for nearly a week, Inspector, and the landlady has

no idea where they might have gone.

Where they won't go?

The landlady says she went in there to clean up the place and found an old TV

set and a few pieces of unfinished furniture with no clothing.

Did they talk to any of the other tenants?

Yes, but it wasn't very productive. The Rossens avoided the usual sort of

neighborly contact, with one exception, a next -door neighbor, Mrs. Eberle.

The landlady says that's Mrs. Eberle there. Maybe you'd like to speak to her

now, Inspector.

Mrs.

Eberle?

Yes. We're with the FBI. I'm Inspector Eskin. This is Special Agent Colby.

Oh, dear. What is it?

I understand you're a friend of Todd and Bernice Rawson's.

Yes, they're away.

Do you have any idea where they might be?

No, I don't know where they've gone. In fact, they didn't even tell me they were

going.

Is it a habit of theirs to leave like this?

Not especially.

But they did once before, a few months ago, when that friend of Todd showed up.

He stayed over two nights, and they all left together for a week.

When they came back, they wouldn't tell me where they'd gone or what they'd

done. But Bernie had a bunch of new clothes, and so did Todd.

This friend, what was his name?

Let me see.

It was... What was it now?

Stowe. That was it.

Colin Stowe.

S -T -O -W -E.

He was about medium build.

And definitely creepy.

Did he mention where he lived?

He claimed he was in the lumber business in Georgia, I think.

But he smelled like tar.

I told him he ought to invest in a bottle of cologne.

Well, thanks very much, Miss Everly.

Inspector?

We just received a call from the Charleston Resident Agency.

Some of the missing bills turned up in the woman's shop there.

The couple who passed them fits the description of the Rossens.

Keep the apartment under surveillance, Dan. Yes, sir.

Hello, Colin.

That is nice.

Where'd you grab it?

I bought it.

You're kidding.

What'd you do, rob a bank?

Now, you said that. I didn't.

Where'd you hit?

Transworld Bank, Norfolk.

That's cool.

Not really.

Most of what we got they can trace.

Serial numbers go like one, two, three.

Yeah, Colin.

We thought maybe you could find us a fence.

Well, how much are we talking about?

We've got 16 G's left.

Oh, well, now you've got to realize you can't get that much.

See, then I come in for my cut.

Finder's fee.

Ten percent.

All right, you got somebody you mind?

Well, there's a fellow over to Atlanta.

Vern Dupre.

I can call him.

Oh, say, you got some change?

I guess it's like I've always been saying.

Pays no people.

You know, when you're stupid, it pays them.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean that.

It's just... When you do that to me, it just cuts my feet right off one of them.

I didn't mean you were stupid. I guess I could have done the same thing.

Just don't go trying to second -guess me, okay?

I told you, I'm sorry.

Look, it's going to be all right.

I want to make us a good deal with that guy. He's going to go.

It's just that...

I have to know that you're with me all the way.

100%.

Frank, is there any doubt it was the Rawson's who ran out of that store?

No. Three witnesses positively identified Todd Rawson's picture and

was accompanied by a woman who matches the description of Bernice Rawson.

Also, some of the other bills turned up through the NCIC.

Where?

Fayetteville, North Carolina, Inspector.

Agents there say the money was deposited in a bank by a used car dealer.

The salesman who sold the car positively identified Todd Rawson as the one who

passed the bills.

He also said Rawson had a woman with him who matches Bernice Rawson's

description. Unit 7.

This is 7.

Stand by, please. This is a call for Inspector Erskine, Assistant Director

at the Bureau.

Hello, Lewis.

Yes, Art.

Will you check the name you called in?

Colin Stowe?

There's a Rudolph Colin Stowe who served time in the same prison with Todd

Rawson in 1966.

Where is he now?

Last known address we have is Athens, Georgia.

I called the resident agent there, and they're out trying to get a line on him

now.

Right.

guy is. He must be big.

Yeah.

May I help you?

Yes, sir. It's Mr. Dupre in.

We're the Rossens.

Colin Stowe sent us.

Follow me.

There, you've had enough.

Thank you, Gil.

You're the young couple Colin told me about.

I'm Todd Rawson. This is Bernie.

Lovely.

Why don't we make ourselves comfortable?

Thank you.

Join me in a drink?

No, thanks.

I'd love to.

Ramus Fizz. I have some already mixed.

I've never had one.

Then you're in for a very special treat.

Thank you.

I just can't get over this place.

It's a mansion.

Really? It's rather standard.

But I suppose it does ramble a bit.

It certainly has everything I could ever want.

It's really a dream.

You know why we came here.

All that hot money scorching your jeans? Is that your problem?

I'd like to make a little deal. Why don't we put it that way?

All right.

Get our business out of the way first.

Get 16 ,000. Hundreds and fifties.

I don't usually bother with so small a sum, but I owe Colin a favor.

I'm sure one of my sources can handle it.

I'll tell you what.

The customary rate of exchange is half.

But I'll see that you do better.

I'll make sure you get $12 ,000.

That's very nice of you, Mr. Dupre.

Vern.

Vern.

Pleasant? Oh, yes.

Oh, beautiful.

You know, I like you, too. I don't even know you, but I like you. You remind me

of the days when I was young and new and...

Hungry the way you are now.

You make it sound like it was centuries ago, but I'm sure it wasn't, Vern.

You're going to be all right.

You have style.

Let me see your hand.

I knew it.

Smooth, unbroken line, a fluid curve.

That means success and style.

You're going a long way, young lady. It's burning.

Don't forget, we still have those other things we gotta do.

Oh, I was hoping you'd join me for lunch. I've just had some marvelous

flown up from the quay.

I'm sorry, we have to leave.

When can we pick up the 12 ,000?

After dinner would be convenient, about 8 .30. Fine.

Just a moment, tell me something, I'm curious.

Did you have anything to do with getting this money?

Of course, I was right there. We robbed a bank.

How about you?

How about both of you?

You know, I might be able to arrange something for you two.

Something big.

With a kind of a payoff that would really put you on your feet.

Let me work on it.

Wonderful. We'll see you tonight.

I'm looking forward to it.

Colin Stowe?

Yeah.

Last I heard.

FBI. I'd like to talk to you.

What do you want to talk about?

Todd Rawson.

Rawson?

No.

Don't believe I ever heard of him.

i'm okay

We better have moving.

You hear about the money?

Yes.

I'll be back in a moment.

Adam, do you believe this? You better be careful.

These are bonds worth a thousand apiece. There's 50 of them sitting here.

What do you think you're doing?

Listen, don't start getting flippy with me. I'm telling you something.

As soon as that guy comes out of there and leaves that money on us, we're

cleaning out of here fast.

We're not going to see him anymore, either. Now, do you understand that? He

he might have something big for us.

Well, we're not interested.

Oh, maybe you're not.

But I'd like to stick around and hear what he's got to say.

No.

I'm telling you, we're taking the $12 ,000 and that's it. What good is $12

going to do? Oh, please, don't tell me you're still thinking about that dump

truck. Yes.

Yes, I am. And I'll tell you another thing. I'm a lot more interested in

rocks and busting them into prison somewhere. Oh, come on.

Why are you always looking on the gloomy side of things? We're not going to get

caught, Todd. There's no reason for us to get caught.

Look, all we have to do is stick around for a little while and pull off a couple

of really sweet jobs, and we could end up with something like this.

And that's the only way we're ever going to do it.

Isn't that right?

Look, he's coming. Come on, let's get rid of him.

So what?

Excuse me, sir.

Could I interest you in buying some bonds?

You might, if the price is right.

Well, special for you today, only 1 ,500 apiece.

Bernd? Mm -hmm?

You said you might have a set -up for us.

As a matter of fact, I do. Why don't we sit down?

I think you might like it.

We're talking about some rather interesting jewels that have found their

here to Atlanta, one of our better stores.

You two do the collecting.

I make the arrangements, handle the resale, and we shouldn't have between

and three hundred thousand. Half for you, half for me.

Now, wait a minute.

I don't expect you to make an immediate decision. I want you to think about it

overnight.

And then tomorrow, if it appeals to you.

Then we can talk about the details.

I can give you an answer right now.

So can I.

We pass.

Fine. No problem.

It's just that... I don't know. Everything just seems to be moving too

me. Perhaps you're wise.

Yes, but not exactly loaded.

You two seem to be doing all right. There's nothing wrong with $12 ,000.

Oh, no.

No, nothing at all, except that it doesn't go very far.

When the money runs out and you pull another small job, then that should get

by for a few more months.

There's something to be said for the conservative approach.

Vernon, I've got a... I've got a proposition for you.

I'll give you those bonds if you'll give me one of those drinks you

made me this morning.

It's a deal.

Gil? Same for you, Todd?

No, Todd.

We don't have any of those other things to do.

You might as well have a drink.

I'm staying.

Do you have any questions about your rights?

All I need is a new leg.

Where are the Rossens?

I don't know.

I haven't seen them in almost a year now, gentlemen. I tell you true.

You didn't visit their house and apartment a couple of months ago and

two days?

No, man.

They didn't come to see you at the plant yesterday?

All right, but I don't know where they are now.

You're not getting any idea that I had anything to do with that robbery in

Norfolk.

Now, that was their thing, not mine.

What did they tell you about it?

They sounded off a little.

Bernie seemed bugged that Todd was dumb enough to grab a bunch of stuff that

just came off the press.

She took part in the robbery, didn't she?

Yeah, she backed him up.

She's real cool.

You watch out for this chick.

She's got nerves she ain't even used.

Why did they come to see you?

Oh, now you added that up already.

I know you did.

I've still got to say it, huh?

Okay, it was the cash.

See, since it was hot and they couldn't spend it, they figured maybe I could

steer them to where they could lay it off.

Did you?

Oh, please, now, what kind of guy you think I am?

Me, help out a couple of crooks?

Well, that'd be breaking the law.

You didn't send them to offense?

Inspector, how could I?

I don't know anyone in that line.

Now, you've got to believe me.

Once you come out onto the mall, Bernie, you go to the corner and head for the

car. Simple.

Perfect.

Perfect all around.

Yeah, well, I'm not so sure.

Why not?

Where's the hitch?

All sorts of things could go wrong. Like what? Like I don't know.

What if something does happen?

Who's going to get it, huh?

You and me.

Him? He just sits there and waits to see what happens.

Soldiers in the trenches always resent the general. It's an age -old grievance.

Yeah? Well, I don't dig it.

You now know the whole setup.

As far as I'm concerned, you're committed.

Todd.

Hey, baby.

Baby, this is it. This is the shot we've been looking for. I know. I... I know.

I just... I know something's wrong.

I knew it. Well, what is your problem, anyway?

Just a bad case of the jitters. He'll be all right. Something occurs to me. That

car you've been driving.

It's stolen, of course.

No, we bought it.

Not with the money from the bank.

Oh, well.

When we've been driving it around, we gotta be crazy.

It's hard you dump it right now.

Yeah.

Where?

Anywhere. The other side of town. Just get it out of here.

Come on, Todd. It doesn't take two of us to get rid of a car.

Come with me, please.

You're really getting goofy. I'll be right here.

Bernie.

Go on, Todd.

Bernie, I'm worried.

He's really shaking.

Maybe the pace is too quick for him.

That happens.

It'll adjust.

I don't know.

I just don't think he has it in him anymore.

Oh, no, no.

You're too harsh on him. He is your husband.

Maybe I should have changed that.

I tell you, when we were first married, he was a completely different person.

The coolest guy I'd ever met.

It was that time in prison that changed him. I swear to you, for the first

couple of weeks after he was out, he did nothing but hang on me all the time.

He's falling apart now.

And I think he knows he's losing me.

It's up to you, then, to hold him together.

At least until the job's over.

Say, would you do me a favor?

Sure.

Try this on.

I'd love to.

What do you think?

Oh.

Oh, that's beautiful.

Who's the lucky girl? You're looking at her.

It's the least I could do. After all, you gave me my bonds back, didn't you?

I don't know what to say.

Don't.

Think.

Think about furs and parties and a whole other world.

Provided you have the appetite for it.

You know I do.

I'm planning a little business trip to Rio.

Next month.

I could use you there.

Do they wear these in Rio?

Office just called to say that the Rawson car has been found on the eastern

of the city.

They're interviewing people in the neighborhood now.

Any cars reported stolen there?

No, sir.

10 -4.

Good afternoon.

May I be of service?

I hope so.

I'm looking for something rather special in the way of a bracelet, possibly some

earrings. In diamonds?

Is there anything else?

Well, won't you sit down?

We have some very nice bracelets right here.

Frankly, I was hoping you'd have something a little less commercial.

Let me get Mr.

Bowen. I'm sure he'd want to handle this personally.

And you might mention to him that I'm related to Mr. Hawley, Mr. Howard

Certainly.

How do you do?

Well, I understand you are related to Mr. Hawley?

Yes, he's my uncle.

He was here this morning. You could have come in together.

Well, I'm afraid I just could not get out of bed this morning.

Won't you step this way, please? Thank you.

Oh, no, you don't, my boy.

Deliveries use the rear entrance. Come on, I'm in a hurry. Go out and go

Look, I'm already here.

All right.

Down the hall and all the way to the back.

Thank you.

That's right, mister.

Don't move it. Don't push any buttons either.

Tie him up.

Come on. Come on.

Come

on.

Hurry up. We're almost there.

You're making a very bad mistake.

Forget it.

Nobody's interested.

Open up.

All right.

Now I go first, remember?

Yeah. Be cool, baby.

Just one more minute, and we've got it made.

Oh, miss, I hope you found something.

Yes, just exactly what I wanted. Thank you very much. Bye now.

I told you to use the rear.

Did you see him, miss?

Yes? Send them in.

Hewitt.

Inspector. How are you? Hewitt. Tom.

What have you turned up on Ross's car?

Agents have located a witness. A gardener who was working in the

when the car drove up.

A few minutes later, he saw the driver flag down a cab and take off.

What did the cab member say?

We're tracing it now.

Excuse me.

Yes?

Put him on.

Have you talked to the cab driver yet, Phil?

Good.

Yes.

Good work.

The cab driver remembers taking a man answering Todd Rawson's description to a

home at 12 Calhoun Street, just outside of town.

Let's go.

They're coming around the back.

Hey.

It's only the girl.

Todd blew it.

He panicked.

Cop chased him and shot him.

Killed him?

I think so. I don't know.

Did you get the jewels?

Yeah, we got that far anyway.

Get the bags.

You're leaving?

It's inconvenient, I agree, but it's the only course.

If Todd should survive, have you any doubt that he'll talk?

You could wait to find out. It might be a lot simpler.

It might also be a fatal error.

What about your house?

Everything you've got here, you're just going to walk away and leave it?

Of course.

Nothing here belongs to me.

It's rented, all of it.

Oh, in case you've forgotten, half of that belongs to me.

Does it now?

But face it, little girl.

You're right back where you started, out in the cold.

I'll take that case.

Are we ready?

Almost.

Get that coat.

I'll go around and get the car and take care of the rest of the papers.

How about her?

She can ride with us for a while.

We'll think of something.

FBI.

You're the man.

I hope you get everything you deserve.

I'll do everything I can do to help.

Do you know about my husband? Is he dead or alive?

He's alive.

There was a chance back there at the jewelry store I might have saved him.

Maybe saved us both.

But I wanted something like this.

And it was rented all the time. Can you beat that?

What a lousy fake.

Todd and Bernice Rawson were tried and convicted in federal court of bank

robbery. Gil Arkea, Vern Dupre, and Colin Stowe were found guilty of

federal officers.

Dupre was also convicted of receiving bank robbery money.

Colin Stowe also was convicted of being an accessory after the fact.

In addition, the Rawson's and Dupre were convicted in state court of armed

robbery and conspiracy.
