He is good, isn't he?

Don't worry.

We'll be all right.

Where will you be?

In touch all the time.

What if he tries to pull something?
He'll know me. He'll be able to identify

Not if he's dead, he won't.

I do believe we've got company.

That's right, Mr. Halliday.

Just take it easy.

It's a jeweler's loop.

I'm going to take the blindfold off now.

If you so much as sneeze, I'm going to
blow your brains out.

Is that clear?

Eminently.

Tonight's episode, A Gathering of
Sharks.

Hey.

No.

Not a sound.

Or it'll be your last one.

Ali!

Stop!

Stop or I'll shoot!

Thirteen hours after the daring theft of
the Beauharnais diamond from the Oregon

summer home of retired millionaire Jacob
Simpson Crane, the station wagon used

by the thief was found abandoned in a
northern California state park.

Because there was evidence that stolen
property was taken across state lines,

the FBI entered the case.

He was operated on last night. Doctor
says he's going to make it.

Right this way.

Mr.

and Mrs. Crane, Inspector Erskine, Tom
Colby. Inspector Erskine.

Colby, why don't you sit down? Thank
you.

Get a good look at the man, Mrs. Green?

I'm afraid not. It happened so quickly,
I was just lucky to get away with my

life. She could have been killed.

That's the thing that keeps running
through my mind, that haunts me.

A few years ago, I would have handled
this thing myself.

But now... My husband had a stroke last
year.

Inspector, people don't just come into
my house and take things.

Not now, not ever.

The diamond wasn't short, wasn't it?

For half its accepted value.

$150 ,000, that's all the insurance
company would cover it for.

They tried to tell Eileen when and where
she could wear it, but I didn't buy it

for her to lock it up someplace.

I wanted her to wear it when and
wherever she wanted to.

So the insurance company and I split the
difference.

Have you discharged any servants lately?

No. Why? Do you think it might be
someone we know?

It's a possibility.

Miss Crane, do you think you could make
a list of all the people that have

visited your home recently?

Yes, of course.

Inspector, I know it's only a piece of
jewelry, but it's important to me, to

Do you think there's a chance that we
may get the diamond back?

There's always a chance.

I think I'd better have a talk with your
insurance company as soon as possible.

Excuse me.

Mr. Crane? Yes?

We've got the diamond.

Who is this?

Never mind.

If you want the stone back, it'll cost
you $100 ,000.

How do I know you have it?

Don't play games, Crane.

I've got it.

You've got the guts to sell me back
something I already own.

Do you want it or not?

No.

Suit yourself.

Wait.

Now you're being sensible.

Now get the money together, and I'll
pick a spot where we can meet.

No, I can't do that.

I haven't been well.

Can you send someone else?

Yes.

Everett Halliday.

He knows the stone as well as I do.

Who's Halliday?

He works for me.

I don't know if I can reach him now.
He's in Europe.

But he's due back at Pebble Beach this
Tuesday.

Pebble Beach.

Yes. I can try to contact him there when
he arrives.

I can tell him you'll be in touch with
him, too.

All right. You do that.

you know about Halliday?

Everett Halliday? Yes.

Well, I've never seen him, but I've
heard Crane talking to him on the phone.

He's been in Europe for a while with his
daughter.

I think he's a widower.

Anything else?

I know he plays golf.

There are trophies all over Crane's
house with Halliday's name on them, too.

Halliday's going to make the buyback?

Crane says he's not well enough.

I don't like it.

Why not?

Well, you know Crane. He's tricky.

He's not going to roll over and play
dead. He'll put up a fight first.

We can handle it.

What do you mean, we?

I want you to negotiate with Halliday.

They won't be expecting a woman. It'll
keep them off balance.

Besides, I want to keep one long step
away from them.

But leave me out there?

Oh, no.

You've got nothing to worry about. You
didn't steal a diamond. You haven't even

got it.

You're nothing but an innocent go
-between.

Then let's have the stone cut up.

And get a fraction of what it's worth,
right?

No. We'll do it my way.

Besides, Carmel is beautiful this time
of year.

Come on, honey.

You got nothing to worry about?

Everything's going to be all right.

Is it?

We'll get this thing taken care of and
then we'll split for Europe.

The Riviera.

It's what you want, isn't it?

You really mean it?

Of course I do.

What have you got, Lewis?

We've been going over lists of people
who've had access to the house.

You think it may have been an inside
job?

It looks that way right now.

What does Halliday do back?

We've had a bit of bad luck there.

His daughter's sick in Europe and he
doesn't know when he can get away.

What do you plan to do?

Well, I talked to Crane about it. He has
no objection to my taking Halliday's

place.

I've studied his pictures and we look
quite a bit alike.

And I've looked over the pictures and
reports of the diamond with the

company. Lewis, if it was an inside job
and someone in the gang knows

Halliday... He's been in Europe ever
since the Cranes came to Oregon.

And he's never played at Pebble Beach.

I really think this may be our best
move, Art.

All right, Lewis, I'll take it up with
the director and get back to you.

Take a look at this one.

Very nice.

You know, I shouldn't be telling you
this, but in a way...

I wouldn't want the responsibility of
placing Everett in that kind of

In fact, I'd feel better if you weren't
going.

I guess I'm mellowing in my old age.

The Bureau wants this thief as badly as
you do, Mr. Crane.

I'm beginning to realize that.

Hello, have you noticed the inscriptions
on the trunks?

You and Halliday went many times like
this?

Yes, we were partners.

What's his handicap?

Me?

Everett's a whiz.

Do you play, Inspector?

He is good, isn't he?

We'll be all right.

Where will you be?

In touch all the time.

What if he tries to pull something?

He'll know me. He'll be able to identify
me.

Not if he's dead, he won't.

I told you.

You've got nothing to worry about.

You make it seem so easy.

But I guess that's the secret to golf.

Maybe even life.

What's your name?

Carla Payne.

I play a little, but I'm afraid my only
real talent is for appreciation.

Have we met before?

No, but we have an influence.

I hadn't expected a... A woman?

One so attractive.

Is Mrs. Holliday with you?

My wife died last year, but you knew
that, didn't you?

You're very quick, but you're right.

Well, I had to be sure who you were.

Now that you're sure?

I have something I think you may want.

What's that?

The Beauharnais diamond.

I'll have to see it first.

I'm afraid that's out of the question.

You don't really expect me to pay for
something I haven't authenticated.

You can do that when we make the
transfer.

Before.

You know, this isn't golf we're playing,
Mr. Halliday.

People can get hurt at this game.

Is that a threat?

A warning.

Take it or leave it.

I'll have to get back to you.

I'm not going anywhere.

You know, it's too bad we're on opposite
sides of the fence.

Had things been otherwise, we might have
worked well together.

You'll be hearing from him.

Isn't it lovely? And it's by an artist
who lives right here in Big Sur.

Well, you can't win them all.

You look what the waves washed in.

How are you, Sue?

About the way I look.

Pretty as ever.

I wish I had a quarter for every girl
you said that to.

What are you doing here, Scott?

I came to see you.

I believe it.

But then I believe in leprechauns and
Santa Claus. It's the truth.

It always is for about as long as it
takes you to say it.

It's good to see you, Scott.

Let's go for a walk on the beach.

I've got customers.

What time do you walk?

Anytime I want.

But I don't want right now.

Doesn't it mean anything to you that I
keep coming back?

Sure. Some laughs, but a lot more hurt.

you're like a piece of driftwood scott
that keeps floating in and out of my

you're great to look at fun to be with
but nothing to hold on to maybe i've

changed i'll come back later we'll go
for a walk what do you say

Nice boat.

Was Carla Payne with anyone when she
checked in?

No, she was alone, and... She's driving
a car she rented in her own name, but

we're keeping her under surveillance.

Where is she now?

As soon as she left you, she went
straight to her room.

Well, whoever she's working with is
keeping his distance.

Except to wait for her to make contact.

At the gas station.

How did it go?

He wants to see the diamond first before
he'll get the money.

We knew he'd be cautious.

What did you tell him?

That I'd get back to him.

Good girl.

Scott, where do you want me to meet you?

When?

Tonight. We'll have dinner together.

It's not safe.

Suppose Halliday's having you followed.

Hoping to get to me and the diamond.

There's too much at stake to risk it.

I guess you're right.

Carla, I want to see you too, you know.

I spent most of the day thinking about
you.

About us.

That makes me feel better.

You get in touch with Halliday.

Tell him he can see the diamond
tomorrow.

And I'll find a place where you can't be
followed and I'll get back to you.

Scott, say it.

I love you, Carla.

I love you, too.

Another lucky girl? Nah, just business.

As soon as the deal's closed, the
partnership ends.

Well, will you look at me acting just
like I had strings on you? It's what I

want.

You know, this time I believe you.

I saw you play golf today.

I asked your caddy who you were.

Truth is, I'm looking for a partner.

Can I buy you a drink?

No, thanks.

My name's Roberts.

Dave Roberts.

Glad to meet you. I'm very glad to meet
you, too.

Well, like I said, you are some kind of
golfer.

Of course, I guess you didn't need me to
tell you that, did you? Huh?

Ever thought about playing
professionally?

No, I just play for pleasure.

Well, now, people that play for pleasure
can make a little money, too.

Now, take me, for example.

I play a pretty good game of golf, even
if I do say so myself.

Now, I'm not in your league or anything
like that, but together.

we'd make quite a team.

See, I got this little group of high
rollers.

Now, these guys are just itching for a
little action. I mean, hey, if we don't

take them, somebody else is going to,
right?

Mr. Robinson, I'm sorry, but I'm just
not interested.

Okay.

Okay.

Hey, look, now, if you change your mind,
I'm staying right there at the hotel.

I'm staying right here.

Oh! I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

Friend of yours?

Never saw him before.

Well, heaven protects fools and drunks.

What else have you got to tell me?

You can see the diamond tomorrow.

Are all these precautions really
necessary?

Leave it on, Mr. Halliday.

You know, I get this feeling you don't
trust me. Good. Keep it and you won't

hurt.

I believe we've got company.

That's right, Mr. Halliday.

Just take it easy.

It's a jeweler's loop.

All right, Mr. Halliday.

I'm only going to say this once.

When you look at the diamond, keep your
eyes straight ahead. Don't turn around.

Understand?

Understand.

I'm going to take the blindfold off now.

If you so much as sneeze, I'm going to
blow your brains out.

Is that clear?

Eminently.

How come Crane sent you?

Do you know about diamonds?

I know about this one. I was with him
when he bought it.

Satisfied? It's the boy, Nate.

I'll take this.

How soon can you get the money?

Just as soon as I can get to the bank in
town.

All right.

I'll call you at your hotel with
instructions where to bring it.

Mr. Halliday.

Yes?

Don't underestimate me.

If anything goes wrong, If there are any
follow -ups, I'll kill you.

Been charming.

Hold it, Carla.

Bert. How you been?

All right.

How's Jordan?

I wouldn't know.

Got tired of his two -timing. I dumped
him.

Before or after the crane job?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I think you do.

Hey.

At least let me buy you a drink.

Some other time, Bert.

Now.

Leave me alone.

Sure.

It was just a guess, Carla.

You can't blame me for trying.

The fact the crane was just robbed.

The fact you just drove in here with
Halliday.

It sounded an awful lot like Jordan's
kind of thing.

I want in.

Jordan will kill you.

Let me talk to him.

I'm warning you for your own good.

Don't be so good to me.

Hey, pal.

Hey, you play golf, huh? Look, I'm into
the sweetest deal in the world.

I need a partner.

Look, get lost, will you, please? Oh,
hey, pal, don't get upset. Don't have to

get so... Look, look. Oh, God.

Yes, sir?

Tom. The identification division has
identified the latents on the glass you

sent in.

Carla Payne is an alias for a woman
named Barbara Marie Thompson.

She was convicted of interstate
transportation of stolen property in San

Francisco a few years ago.

The cranes have identified her picture.

She posed as an interior decorator under
another alias and was in the house

before the diamond was stolen.

They're all sized in. How's Lewis doing?

He's authenticated the diamond.

And you are going to proceed?

Yes, sir. We're having a package made up
now.

All right, Tom. Get back to me.

Stop right there, Mr. Halliday.

Look what you got there, Shea Case, on
the ground.

Go on.

Uh -huh.

All right, folks, nothing to worry
about. Everything's under control.

Back up.

Looks like the sharks are beginning to
gather.

See what you can find out about it.

Mr. Everett Halliday, please.

Hello? Mr. Halliday?

Yes? Have you got the money?

Yes.

Okay.

Now get into your car and drive north to
the Monterey Turnoff.

There's a phone booth in the Monterey
Marina parking lot at the end of

Washington. You've got 15 minutes to get
there.

Understand? Monterey Marina parking lot
at the end of Washington. All right.

Right. And Mr. Halliday, no tricks.

In case you follow, we'll be covering
you in a leapfrog pattern with backup

units on the parallel streets.

Maintain surveillance on the pain woman.

My deal's all set.

Thank you, Banks.

I'll pick you up at your place in an
hour.

You better take a cab.

I'll meet in my car.

All right.

Wait.

What? Not having any second thoughts?

Unit 3 to all units on the special.

Leaving parking lot now and heading
north.

Unit 3 to 7, take over.

10 -4.

Hello?

Halliday?

Yes? Are you alone?

I'm alone.

All right.

Drive to Cannery Row in Hoffman.

There's a phone booth in the parking
lot. Be there in five minutes.

There's a note taped underneath the
phone.

Unit 70, Unit 3.

He's leaving the marina and heading
north through Lighthouse Tunnel.

Except in all units.

He stopped at a phone booth at
Canterbury Row.

Just keep cool, Mr. Halliday.

I don't want to hurt you.

The diamond?

You're really not a very trusting man,
are you, Mr. Halliday?

It's a fake.

You're lying.

Look for yourself.

One angle I never figured.

Carla.

She must have made the switch after you
looked at it.

I'm sorry, Mr. Halliday.

I'll take the money.

I'm sorry. The deal's off.

What is this?

FBI, you're under arrest.

Carla, if you get so away with it... Put
your hands behind your head.

Oh, I wish I could see the look on
Jordan's face when he finds out he's

a fake.

Well, who knows? Halliday may go for it.

Had a pretty good pace made up.

You're not sorry, are you?

You're not doing this just to get even
with Jordan.

I did it for us.

Double -crossing Jordan with the fraught
thing on the cake.

Halliday? No, Miss Payne.

Inspector is an FBI.

And I thought you and I might have
worked well together.

The way we did.

Scott Jordan was tried and convicted in
state court of burglary and attempted

murder. Jordan and Barbara Marie
Thompson were found guilty in federal

interstate transportation of stolen
property and conspiracy.

David Robinson was also convicted of
receiving stolen property.

Burt Stoner was convicted in federal
court of assault of a federal officer.
