All language subtitles for The FBI s08e24 Memory of a Legend.eng

Son, you haven't crossed the line yet.
Not to the extent that you can't step

back. Huh.

It's coming out of both sides of your
mouth.

Easy street for you, but sweating out
the bills for me.

25 ,000.

All right.

It's a deal.

Bailey, that's the yacht.

You're under arrest, Ross.

Get into the showroom, but don't touch
anything.

The FBI.

A Quinn Martin production starring
Ephraim Zimbalist Jr.

Also starring Philip Abbott, William
Reynolds, with guest

stars Pat Hingle, Jeffrey Duell,

Lawrence Dane, Brett Summers -Clugman.

Tonight's episode.

Memory of a legend.

It's light out already.

How much longer?

Patience. You've been at it over an
hour.

My knees tell me that.

The word now is sesame.

A small joke.

What's wrong now?

Is it open or isn't it?

It's open. But what?

Call it instinct.

You neutralized two alarms already.

They got any more, they ought to be in
that business.

What did I tell you? Let's get out of
here.

Wait, wait.

We've got two minutes.

Fast.

20 minutes, he said. Any make, any kind.
20 minutes.

I admit to being a bit rusty, Staley.

It was a touch of bad luck.

Take your bad luck someplace else. Get
out.

Call it a mistake.

Anybody can make a mistake.

I made one bringing you in. Go on.

What you grabbed is yours.

But I'm taking pizza.

On the morning of June 21st, Illinois
State Police discovered the stolen

car used in the $160 ,000 burglary of a
Milwaukee jewelry store.

The FBI was notified and immediately
entered the case.

You don't have to say anything, Miller.

But anything you do say can't be used
against you, and you have the right to

have an attorney.

Look, I got into a bad deal.

I got stupid.

Two guys I never saw before say watch
the door, so I watched it.

It's my first time.

Your first time? First offense.

The DA's got a guilty plea, so I'm faced
with one to five. Case closed.

Your first offense under the name of
Peter Maller, you mean?

Peter R. Maller, alias George Jason
Montgomery, breaking and entering

1969.

Who were the two men with you?

I, uh, I got a deal working for me.

No deals.

Who were they?

There were three of us.

Lawrence, Staley, and some old guy.

What was his name?

I don't know. Staley picked him up at
the last minute.

Where'd you meet Staley?

In El Paso, where he's from.

Is that where they were heading?

Well, we figured unload us, though.
There's some connection that Staley said

had lined up.

That old guy.

Supposed to be an expert safe cracker.
All the time he spent on that safe like

he was going to a picnic.

Working on a hot safe and not even
knowing it?

I hope he chokes him when he got out of
that job.

Keep the change, driver.

My son has excellent taste.

I must apologize for not phoning from
the airport.

Ha!

Hey, great!

Well, what do you know?

that you still recognize me.

You don't look a day over... Hey, say
hello to Vera. You two never met.

My dear.

I can't get over it. It is quite a
surprise, Mr. Benderson.

I'll just call him Pop.

What are you doing down this way?

You staying in town long?

Until Sunday, I booked passage aboard a
boat to Hawaii. I just dropped by to say

hello and see how you both were doing.

Sure, great, but until Sunday.

Well, where are you staying?

And why just a hello? We got rooms to
rattle around in here.

Oh, no, Bob. I've already made a
reservation at a motel, but we'll have a

time to talk.

So cancel the reservation.

Vera, don't take any no's. We'd love to
have you stay.

Really. Thank you.

First thing I remember about you is me
not even in britches.

You coming downstairs in the morning,
ready to leave.

Standing in the hallway, taking that
brush from the closet, brushing that

Chesterfield coat, straightening your
tie, that diamond stick pin you wore.

Later, he gave me a dime every morning
for brushing that coat for him.

So you saw Mom, huh, Pop?

Where I got your address, she still
looks. Oh, Pop.

Your mother never changes.

Yeah. We exchange Christmas cards.

I mean...

I was about 16 when I split.

I don't know. Kind of my fault, I guess.

Well, I wrote her and asked her if she'd
like to come and visit. Maybe stay with

us. No, no, Bob. The real guilt is mine.

It's certainly been more than 15 years
since... Well, I'll say it, my dear.

Since making a dishonest living.

Please. Well, water under the bridge.

What about yourself, Pop?

Where you been these 15 years?

Bob, an easier answer to that would be
where I haven't been.

Oh, before I forget.

A little something I picked up in
Panama.

A belated wedding gift.

Hey, how about that?

Oh, but I couldn't. It's too expensive.

No, my dear. Its real value lies within
the appreciation of its wearer.

Oh, Mr. Benderson, really? Hey, come on.

Now, that's the way Pop always does
things.

If it's not tops, he doesn't fool with
it.

Where I get my style from?

Hawaii, huh, Pop?

What will you be doing there?

I thought I'd buy a little house on one
of the islands and just sit and watch

the surf roll in.

That sounds great.

Hey, how about a liqueur? Fine.

Excellent dinner, Vera.

Well, you go ahead and talk, and I'll
clean up here.

You seem to be doing very well, Pop.

No complaints.

In business with a friend, George
Carney.

In fact, we can take a walk down this
way tomorrow.

Nice guy.

I want you to meet him.

What sort of business are you in?

Marine gear.

Small boat stuff. Buy and sell.

They say that leisure time businesses
are the up -and -coming thing.

I can't lose selling when the buying
price is right.

Total investment?

$4 .98.

screwdriver and blade, and you're in the
main cabin.

You've been stealing?

Nickel and dime so far.

But we're raising our sights.

Here's to us, Pop.

You retiring, me making a start.

To the chip off the old block being just
as successful.

Staley served time in Illinois and
Michigan. He might have got to know him

there. Well, if the third man is a
veteran -safe burglar, it shouldn't take

to check out.

Mauer said he was an expert, but a
little rusty.

We'll have some photos shown him to see
if he can identify him.

Here's something interesting. It just
came in from El Paso.

They have an informant who says a fence
there named Martin Ross is preparing to

make a large jewelry buy.

Has he seen the stones?

Yes.

And it sounds like they're the ones
taking in the Milwaukee job.

You better get down there right away.

Right.

Hey, Pop, tell George about that cattle
deal in Argentina.

Listen to this one, George. Well, let's
just say it was very profitable.

Pop was always on top and into things.

Remember I told you about Frank Neely?
Yeah.

Remember, Pop?

I was, what, 13?

And there he was, coming into our house.

Frank Neely, biggest hood in Chicago.

You wanted to breathe in Chicago those
days. You had Frank Neely say, okay, you

can breathe.

Remember, Pop?

Frank and I were good friends.

Wasn't long after that I started putting
two and two together.

I'm not telling tales out of school,
Pop.

George, you hear me? We often talked
about you.

That's all behind me now, Bob.

Pop, I'm going to level with you.

Now, time is short, so I'm hitting you
with it.

Now, George, you're hearing me.

We're going to make a move up.

We want you in.

I already talked to George on the phone
while Vera was showing you the house.

I told Bob you'd be good in church.

Now, it's run by an old Japanese, Sato.

It's about three blocks up from the
pier. It looks like a hole in the wall,

they deal in precious stones.

Now, Sato opens at 8, but his help
doesn't get there till 9.

We're moving in right behind him
tomorrow.

Make him open the safe, and we'll be on
our way in ten minutes.

What about it, Pop?

A three -way split with you in?

Advice from an old man. Forget it. We
got it figured, Mr. Benderson. Clean the

safe and run.

What if he refuses to open that safe?

We'll have guns. You'll see we mean
business.

Have you been inside this place?

We checked it out from across the
street.

All right, boys, from the beginning.

Sato may stare you in the face and be
prepared to die rather than give up his

merchandise.

There are such people.

Supposing that he's arranged with a
customer to meet him tomorrow morning

you're interrupted.

Or you say you haven't been inside this
place.

Does the vault have a time alarm? Where
do the sides of the rear doors lead to

and are they wired with alarms?

See why we need him?

Pop, how would you do it? I wouldn't.

You're going to rob a safe that could...

what? Ten, fifteen thousand in stones.

You'll sell the merchandise for, say,
three, maybe four thousand dollars, if

you're lucky.

Let's look at the other side of the
ledger.

One to ten.

You're hanged for the sheep when you're
stealing the land.

What about a bill of lading that says
Sato got a shipment worth a hundred and

eighty thousand in precious stones?

That's right.

I work the pier sometimes.

Just last Thursday, Sato got a
consignment with a declared value of

That's no lamb we got our eyes on, Mr.
Benderson.

Give us a minute, Judge.

Pop, you gotta do it.

It's my chance.

No scraping the crumbs, but a whole
cake.

That house I got, every penny borrowed
to the hill. Same with the car.

We're going to have a kid.

Some months off, but I'm seeing Vera
gets the best.

The grandchild?

Yeah.

Now, say there's an old man with his
business outgrowing his place. Probably

tin can for a safe in the back office.

Pop, you teethed yourself on stuff like
that.

You may not be as poor as you think,
Pop.

Pop, just look at it.

Okay? Just look at the place.

I'll look at it.

Hey, you know what?

You and me, on a job together.

Lose his skin, John.

Inspector, hope you had a good flight.

We're expecting Staley any time now.

What about Ross?

Still in the house. We have units
covering the back.

Do you have a warrant on him?

No, but the U .S. attorney has
authorized his arrest if the buy goes

10 -4.

Inspector Esker to all units on the
special.

Staley's entering the house. Stand by.

You've never seen better quality.

In round figures, 125 ,000.

Perhaps you should get a couple of bids
to assure yourself what I offer is based

on the present market.

What are you offering?

A prize to keep us both happy.

Twenty -five thousand.

All right.

It's a deal.

The middleman is not necessarily the
happiest in this business, Mr. Stanley.

must recover hard cash in uncertain
times.

Stanley, FBI.

Gender retros.

Attractive, of course.

Burmese jade.

Extremely popular.

Its richness lies in its simplicity.

A delicate gold chain would set it off.

Yes.

It seems, forgive me, more of a trinket
item.

I'm not that concerned about the price.

Do you have an emerald?

Yes, yes.

May I see them, please?

Of course.

I think we've found it, Mr. Sator.

The eyes never tire of emerald.

The price?

$2 ,300.

That would be with tax included.

Will you put this aside for me until
Monday morning and we allow the lady to

make the final decision?

Of course.

Your lady will be most pleased, I'm
certain.

I'm sure she won't be able to resist it.

Good day.

Good day, sir.

You were right.

He's outgrown his business.

Vintage safe in the back room.

But it's tricky.

We'll have to drill and blow.

We'll enter it from that roof up there.

Come down through the ceiling into the
back room.

And we're all set.

Let's take a drive through the back
alley. Check out the rear.

I didn't even know the guy I bought the
stuff from.

Where do you claim this happened?

L .A.

I'm relaxing. Guy says he's got some
good merchandise, so I look over what he

has. What did you pay for the stones?

Like a commission basis.

I slipped him a thousand and we figured
we'd meet later.

But don't stop now. It's just getting
interesting.

Name was Smith.

Little guy.

up the creek.

My neck's out to here. I'm not chopping
it off.

How did you get to El Paso? I flew.

What airline?

KBL.

I think it was that.

Did you purchase the ticket under your
name?

Sure. I waited. No.

No, no.

I grabbed a name out of the air, I
remember.

You know, traveling with hot stuff.

You're taking some pretty wild swings,
Daly.

I'm leveling.

You see a loose buck, you grab what you
can.

The safe burglar is Gustav Benderson.

He was just released from Illinois State
Penitentiary where he stayed with his

cellmate last year.

Mallory has identified his picture.

When was the last time you saw Gus
Benderson?

Doesn't ring a bell, but I got a lousy
memory for names.

Well, let me help you out.

Illinois State Penitentiary.

Last year.

Okay. You've got us all.

Yeah, I know Gus.

But I wish I never had.

I split with him the night of the
burglary.

He might be with his wife by now. We
used to talk about trying to get back

her after he got out.

Where does she live?

Salt Lake City.

There you are. Have a real nice day.

Well, we spent the evening together, and
then Gus flew out that night.

That's Thursday night.

Uh -huh.

Gus showed up looking like his old self.
Just like he stepped out of a band box.

Took me to the nicest restaurant in
town. We even danced.

Gus sure has a way with him.

Telling me he was going to make a new
start.

I was so close to saying yes.

And then I got to thinking about all the
years when I was saying yes.

And Gus never changing.

I don't know. Maybe I'm too old to start
worrying again about where Gus is at

night and what he's doing.

When he asked you to leave the country
with him, Mrs. Bendison, did he give you

any idea what he had in mind?

None at all. He just said he wanted to
see Bob and his wife.

Bob's our son.

He said he wanted to say hello before he
left for good.

Where does your son live, Mrs. Bendison?

San Pedro, California.

His address?

You can't tell me what sort of trouble
Gus is in.

I'm afraid we'll have to speak to him
about that.

I'll give you Bob's address.

I'd rather you didn't tell him that his
father's been in prison all these years.

I kept it from him.

I said he was traveling, you know.

Thank you.

It's not easy being a woman alone with
both my men gone.

When Gus showed up, I was really
tempted, I can tell you.

But I...

I have this job and a nice little
apartment, and I've made my peace.

When Gus asked me to go off with him, I
told him that.

He didn't ask me again.

If he had asked me again, I don't think
I could have said no.

But he didn't ask me.

Get that little old grass shack set up,
and Vera and me will be down your way.

Signs and symptoms.

I'm in the doghouse. We promised to be
home early.

Also last night?

Oh, look, hon.

So we got held up.

I want to know what's been going on.

Hey, what's going on?

Since when did I have to punch you in?

Now, Bob, you know you were in trouble
last year, and they're not going to go

easy with you again.

What is this? I got a trial that time.

I was cleaning your room, and it was
accidental, knocking over your

It opened.

No harm, I'm sure. I'm talking about
what's inside this briefcase.

My dear, I know your thoughts.

But the facts are, I've been
representing a jewelry firm for the past

When I decided to retire, I invested in
a clothes outline.

Items that weren't moving.

I bought these at ridiculously low
prices, and I hope to return a handsome

profit on them when I get to Hawaii.

Hey, I don't see where it's any of our
business.

No, no, it is.

Family business, certainly.

In your place, I would have been just as
disturbed.

Now, if you'll excuse me, please, I'm
going to freshen up a bit.

You don't even ask?

You just accuse?

Then will you tell me what's going on?

We were down at the yard, George popping
me. Now listen, something's going on

the last several weeks that I don't even
know about.

When you talk to George on the phone,
you've been whispering.

And you're becoming nervous and edgy.
And since your father's been here,

barely been able to sleep at nights.

Now something's going on, Bob, and I
want to know what it is.

Now what's going on is your overworked
imagination.

Now leave it alone.

What are you doing?

I thought it best if I check into a
motel room tonight, board the boat early

tomorrow.

Board?

You can't cut out on me now.

It's no good. What you're planning, it's
off.

Now, wait a minute.

Son, you got a wife to worry about, a
child later on. You get yourself a

job, you'll be better off.

You're giving advice?

You think I swallowed that jewelry
salesman story?

Bob, you've got a lot more going for you
here than you think you have.

Vera's a fine woman.

Don't tell me you didn't see an easy
score and take it.

And that's what we've got here tomorrow.

Sato's place for the taking.

Son.

You haven't crossed the line yet. Not to
the extent that you can't step back.

And boy, Vera will know.

There will be no way in keeping it from
her.

Your whole life, Bob, will change.

Pop, it's coming out of both sides of
your mouth.

Easy street for you, but sweating out
the bills for me.

Pop, you've got to stay with it.

Later, you'll see it my way.

And we'll do it without you.

Son, you'll be fumbling your way through
it.

The odds will be against you.

Plenty of time before that boat leaves,
Pop.

There's no need to be fancy, gentlemen.
Let's just get it off.

Now, there is a beautiful sight.

Any sign of Bendison yet?

No. His daughter -in -law just got back
from shopping.

No one else has entered or left the
house.

FBI, Mrs. Bendison. I'm Inspector
Erskine. This is Special Agent Colby.

What can I do for you?

We'd like to talk to your father -in
-law.

He's not here.

He was, wasn't he?

No.

No, you see, we've never met.

Is your husband home?

Bob.

Well, no, he didn't say where he was
going. He might be watching the game

some friends. I don't know.

All right, Mrs. Bendison, we'll drop
back later.

Star -shaped, three -diamond.

Here it is.

Medicine's been here, all right.

Get into the showroom, but don't touch
anything.

Are we going to leave all this stuff?

Yeah. The place could be wired.

I'm not sure I like this.

Hurts, Pop.

We've got to keep moving.

Got to keep moving.

Right.

Yeah, thank you.

Look. Harbor Division police captured a
man in a safe burglary.

He identified Gus Benderson and his son
as his partner on the job. They both got

away, but the son has a gunshot wound.

What about surveillance at the son's
house? Nothing yet.

Alert all hospitals. We'd better get
right down there.

Gunshot wound, doctor.

Put him at his door.

him unfaithful.

Show him when the new pistol he bought
went off.

Couldn't believe it, it just went off.

How long ago did this happen?

Half hour, perhaps.

Why'd you wait so long?

Trouble with the car.

You should have kept him where he was,
sent for an ambulance.

I guess I panicked, doctor, just so much
blood.

Hold this in place.

I'll phone for an operating nurse. Wait
a minute.

Let's get this bleeding stopped first.

I'll set up an ID. We'll get some plasma
into him.

This is the South Bay Emergency Center.
I have a man here with a gunshot.

Help me, Pop.

Help me.

Hello?

at a place called the Princess Motel.

It's one block north of the piers, this
side of 7th. Got that?

Mr. Henderson, I've been waiting for you
a little while ago. Just listen.

We're in room number 4.

Bob needs your help. So get down here as
fast as you can.

What's wrong? Is Bob hurt?

Vera, bring whatever bandages you have
in the house and get down here just as

fast as you can. Now, Princess Motel,
you got that?

Bandages? Vera, I don't have time to
talk to you now.

Get on here just as fast as you can. All
right.

Yeah, that's him all right.

How badly was the son wounded?

Nothing fatal as far as I could see,
Inspector. I think the bullet was lodged

underneath the lower rib.

License number 175PCE?

Right.

Mrs. Venderson just left the house in a
hurry. The surveillance unit says she's

heading this way.

business when things go wrong.

Bleeding stuff probably feels a lot
worse than it really is.

Well, it couldn't be too deep or you
wouldn't feel so much like talking.

When Vera gets here, maybe we should
cross into Mexico.

Ah, it won't hurt for you to stay here a
day or two if you got your strength

back.

Here.

These are for you. That should take you
and Vera a long way.

Me and Vera?

Sailing's at five. I'll be boarding.

You leaving?

You know my plans.

Pop, what are you talking about?

You've got to stay with me.

To what purpose? Vera will be here soon.

We have to stick together.

That's impossible. In your condition,
you'd be nothing but a handicap.

Handicap? You're my father.

My bag and my case are already aboard
that boat. I see no reason I shouldn't

follow them.

But I need help.

You'll get it when Vera gets here.

Bye, Bob.

You ran out on me when I was a kid.

You're no longer a kid, but you're
acting like one.

The way you dressed.

Wearing a diamond stick pin.

Knowing everybody.

I thought you were different.

Had some class.

You owe me.

You planned the robbery.

You invited me in. You pleaded with me
to take charge.

Pop, please.

We can do things together.

I see everything.

Enjoy a full life like you did.

You say I owe you.

Maybe I do.

A full life like I did.

You know what I've spent the better part
of the last 15 years?

in Argentina, mining in Canada, any kind
of travel was what I read about in

books.

Full life.

Those so -called sharp clothes you saw
me wear when you were a boy.

Secondhand. That diamond stick pen. That
was worth maybe two bucks.

The hood I brought home, his picture in
the paper you thought I was entertaining

royalty.

He was hitting me for a loan I tried to
run out on.

A lot of words.

Hot air.

That's all it was.

That's all I am.

But I've got one chance left, and I'm
going to take it.

Now do you feel like telling me where he
is?

No.

Long way down.

Don't do anything foolish, Mr. Benison.

When I was a young man, I used to face
this sort of situation with a smile on

face.

But that smile...

Ever proved, I don't really know.

My son?

He's in the hospital.

In far better hands than mine, I'm sure.

The nicest sound in the world.

Maybe next time.

Gustav Benderson, Lorne Staley, Peter
Maller, and Martin V. Ross were tried

convicted in federal court of conspiracy
and interstate transportation of stolen

property.

Staley was also found guilty of
assaulting federal officers.

Benderson, his son Robert, and George
Wilbur Carney were convicted in state

court of burglary and assault with a
deadly weapon.
