Tonight's episode.

Daughter of evil.

The house is beautiful, Andre.

Who decorated it? My wife.

She's really quite artistic.

In fact, that's why she's in Paris.

To pick up humor painting.

I'm glad she's away.

Otherwise, I'd never get to see where
you live.

I wish I could bring you here more
often.

But then... A little something extra.

You deserve it.

You're going to spoil me.

Andre, my scarf. I must have left it
upstairs.

So glad you remembered.

It wouldn't do to have my wife find it
now, would it?

Here we are.

Thank you.

Now I'm sure I've got everything.

Good. Shall we go?

Good luck

burglars. Modern science is waiting for
you.

End of the line, mister.

Put your hands up behind your head.

You mind if I put this down?

Sure.

Thank you very much, officer. I'll get
the rest of the details from Lieutenant

Biddle.

Morning, Barnaby. J .R.? You guys are up
a little early, aren't you? California

Meridian insures a LeClaire Emerald
collection.

It's a pretty hefty payoff.

There's no doubt the safe was blown by a
real pro.

The sloppy part was the homicide. The
officer said it was a private security

guard.

Two weeks on the job. Green as grass.

Killed with his own gun.

Isn't it a little odd that security
patrol would send one lone man to

investigate a silent burglar alarm?

They did.

The alarm wasn't tripped until a couple
of minutes before he was killed.

You got that pinned down pretty close.

Neighbor heard the gunshot. And what was
the LeClaire family doing during all

this? Mr.

LeClaire's wife is away on a trip.

LeClaire says he went out for a drive
around midnight.

Turned on the alarm system when he left.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, that
doesn't figure. How could a burglar get

inside, get the safe open, get out the
emerald, and be out here where the guard

was killed all in two minutes?

Offhand, I'd say he couldn't. Maybe Mr.

Leclerc wasn't as alone in the house as
he thought he was.

Well, that's pretty close the way we got
it figured.

Come on, I'll introduce you to Leclerc.

I realize the insurance company stands
to lose half a million dollars, Mr.

Jones.

But our personal loss is beyond price.

Some of those pieces have been in my
wife's family for generations.

The implication that perhaps the theft
was something other than it seems. Well,

I reasoned that very much. Nothing
personal, Mr. Leclerc.

Investigating a theft of this size is a
fairly routine matter. Your questions

and we'll be out of your hair.

Well, if it's necessary.

Well, first, Lieutenant Biddle told us
that you left your house about 20

before the silent alarm was tripped.

Fortunately for me.

If the lieutenant is correct, the thief
was hiding somewhere in the house all

evening. Any idea how or when he could
have gotten in?

There are servants here during the day.

Tradesmen come and go.

I suppose someone might get in without
too much difficulty.

Mr. Leclerc, we understand that you left
your house at about midnight.

Isn't that an awfully strange time to go
out?

I... I have recurring insomnia.

Sometimes, driving for an hour relaxes
me.

Last night, I drove to the beach. And at
the time of the murder, I was buying

gasoline at an all -night service
station in Hollywood.

The police have already confirmed it.

All right.

That's about all for now.

We may have to ask your indulgence again
if we encounter any new questions.

Well, if you must.

You must.

Oh, not in here, dear. You want to see
Mrs. Gray. Back through there.

First door on the right. Right, thanks.

And what's the first thing I see when I
open the morning paper?

Uh, hi. I'm Suzy Sinclair. I'm supposed
to see Mrs. Gray.

Oh, um, just make yourself comfortable
out in the reception office, Suzy. I'll

be with you in a few minutes.

Okay, just a couple minutes, okay?

Okay, so the first thing I see this
morning is that Harry iced some security

guard.

Well, I mean it. I am shook.

We all are, Felice.

Nobody wanted it to happen that way.

I know, but it did, Lorette. It did, and
it stinks.

Look, I've never been involved in
anything this heavy. I never would have

involved in this if I'd known something
like this was going to happen.

A wishing won't make it so, Donna.
You're going to come out involved up to

pretty little neck no matter how you
slice it. Oh, that's terrific, Harry.

That's just really beautiful.

Well, look, I am not going to stand
around here with some murder rap hanging

over my head. Now I'm going to split to
New York or Acapulco or somewhere.

Please, please.

Let's not start saying rash things now.
You're a much brighter girl than that.

I'm just scared.

What am I going to do?

Right now you're going to go home.

You're going to take a couple of these
and you're going to get a good night's

sleep.

And then things will look much better
tomorrow.

I don't like it. All right, then take a
couple of days off.

And then if you still want to leave,
we'll try to work something out.

Hey, haven't I always taken good care of
my girls?

Yeah.

No complaints.

About you.

You call me tomorrow. We'll have lunch.

Talk things over.

Hey.

Hey, now, don't you fall apart on me.
Oh, Harry.

Everything's gonna be just fine.

Just fine.

I'll get rid of that Susie out there.

I'll hang out the do not disturb side.

Don't you feel anything?

The paper said he was a young Vietnam
veteran with a family.

Oh, God, did you have to kill him?

Oh, what'd you want me to do? Let him
take me in?

I thought we'd all spend the next few
years in the slammer.

Look, he was trying to be a hero. His
gun went off.

He could have wasted me just as easy.

Maybe that's the way you would have
liked it to come out, huh?

Nobody killed, nobody hurt. That's what
I wanted.

Well, I know you had this nice, safe,
genteel hustle all figured out.

The girl set up the rich johns, I rip
them off. Nobody gets hurt. Oh, no,

the insurance companies, right?

Yeah, well, it didn't turn out that way
this time.

No, it didn't.

Belief was right. It dinked.

All of it. Everything we've been doing.

Loretta, um, look.

Why don't you let me run the business?

Well, I'll take the pressure off you.

Well, it's a lot better than what you've
been hinting around at.

Shutting down the operation completely.

I don't know. I'll think about it.

Right now, I've got an appointment at
the hairdresser, and then I'm getting

of town for a while.

Where are you going, Santa Barbara, to
see Wendy?

None of your business.

Look, I just meant if you're going to
see your daughter, I could tag along.

It's about time I got to meet her.

No chance, Harry.

Hey, you and I had a nice thing going
for a long time.

I think you ought to introduce me.

After all, she might be my stepdaughter
someday.

Just leave Wendy out of it, Harry.

She's got nothing to do with my life
here.

And that includes you especially.

Oh, thank you for letting me know where
I stand.

Oh, the emeralds. You better get them
fenced out of the country.

And stop hassling me on everything.

It's getting very tiresome.

One doesn't like to gossip about a good
customer and a fellow countryman,

Barnaby. Well, I figure, Maurice, one of
that million dollars involved is no

longer gossip.

Perhaps not.

Well, I can tell you, Andre Leclerc is
financially sound, thanks to his wife's

inheritance, as well as Andre's very
nice salary from the shipping company. I

believe they recently made him a vice
president of the firm.

Well, it certainly doesn't sound like a
guy who would fake a robbery just to

collect the insurance money for the
emeralds. What about Leclerc's personal

life? Anything of color there?

As to that, Barnaby, we are men of the
world.

If a man seeks a little variety in
female companionship, discreetly, of

Well, are you talking about a lot of
variety or one or two in particular?

One in particular.

I saw them together several times.

Not here, no, no. This is a family
restaurant.

But there is a rather active bar down
the street.

I saw them late at night there. Were you
ever introduced to her?

Regrettably not.

But I can understand that, Granovich.

She is ravishing.

But what is the name of the place? Maybe
somebody knows her there.

The Oak Lodge.

Oh, thank you very much, Maurice.

I want to be...

The smell of the food in here is
terrific.

I think we could stick around, maybe
have an early lunch or something. Oh,

so sorry. The place hasn't opened for
another hour.

Excuse me.

Please, another time.

I will see you again.

If you'd eaten a proper breakfast, you
wouldn't be hungry now.

Mom! Hi!

Oh, hey, I like it. But why all of a
sudden affection?

Usually it's, um, hey, Mom, where's my
new formal?

Oh, sure, I'm excited.

Who wouldn't be a foxy lady, you?

Well, come on, aren't you going to tell
me the good news?

What good news?

Honey, really, I don't know what... Hi.

I'm afraid I blew your surprise.

I got here an hour ago, and I told Wendy
all about our wedding plans.

You told her what?

I knew you wanted to tell her yourself,
but I was just so darn anxious to meet

my new stepdaughter that I... But when I
did, I just blurted it out.

Oh, he is so cool, Mom. I'm so happy for
all of us.

What is it? You're at?

No, I think we're back to do.

All right, I tried to maneuver you. What
else could I do the way you treated me?

Forget it, Harry.

There's no way I'll ever marry you.

I thought I meant something to you. What
am I, chocolate?

You know, going into business together
spoiled things.

Six months ago, I thought you were the
most beautiful.

Admit it, Harry.

Marrying me is one way of getting your
hands on the phone exchange and the rest

of it.

That's right. I want the business and
you want out of it.

So let me buy it.

Let's settle this later, okay?

Mom?

I lost.

All those double faults catch up with
you. Yeah, but you're getting a lot

better. You are. I can tell.

Honey, listen.

Something has come up, and Harry and I
are going to have to go back to Los

Angeles now.

We can't have dinner together?

I'm sorry, but I'll make it up to you
next Sunday. That's a promise.

Wendy, it was nice meeting you.

I'll see you around.

What happened?

Were you two having a fight just now?

No, it was just a discussion about
business.

What if something I did?

Did I come on too strong about you
getting married?

Oh, if anybody came on too strong, hey,
you're not to worry about anything.

I'll explain it to you on Sunday. We'll
spend the whole day together, all right?

Sure. That'll be nice.

Okay. I love you.

Be happy.

I've got to run. See you next weekend.

Sure.

Bye, Steph.

Bye -bye.

Where'd everybody go?

Back to L .A.

Mom said something came up.

Hey, Steph, can I borrow your car
tonight?

Oh, I guess.

But I thought you just had your
learner's permit.

I don't care.

I've got to get down to L .A.

I think something's really gone wrong
for Mom, and I've got to find out what

is.

Well, it certainly didn't take you long
to get here.

I thought he said to meet you here.
What's up?

Well, my waitress friend at the Oak
Lodge knows all about LeClaire's

Seems that Felice dropped in there all
the time, and sometimes with other men.

Is that her name, Felice? Mm -hmm.
Felice Winters.

One night, one of her dates got so drunk
that they had to send him home in a

cab, so she and our little waitress took
another cab home, and this is where

Felice was dropped off.

Miss Wendry?

Yes? I didn't want to be Jones.

This is my associate, Jedediah Jones.

We're private investigators.

Oh, what are you investigating?

The jewel theft and murder last night at
the home of Andre Leclerc.

Well, what does that have to do with me?

Well, we understand that you and Leclerc
were very cozy friends.

I never heard of this guy.

Leclerc?

What about Edward McKay?

Thomas Martinson?

Walter Bennett?

All well -to -do men whose homes were
burglarized always while their wives

out of town.

Now, it could be that they invited a
call girl to their home, and she, in

cooperation with an accomplice,
burglarized them. Look, I don't know

talking about, except that somewhere in
there you're inferring that I'm a call

girl.

Well, if you were involved in the
LeClair robbery last night, you're a lot

than that.

You're accessory to murder one.

I need you two anyway.

Why don't you just get out of my life,
okay?

I think I'll have Betty check that young
lady out.

Like to know more about her.

Why don't you sit down and make yourself
a drink?

Thanks, I'll do that.

That Lorette said I could have a little
time off. I was hoping that meant time

off from you, too.

The problem is, I just got back from
Santa Barbara, and I find that a private

detective has been at the Oak Lodge
asking questions about you and LeClaire.

Well, I've got a real hot flash for you,
Harry.

I've just been talking to two private
detectives down by the pool.

And I don't mind telling you they scared
the hell out of me.

What did they want, Felice?

They know about the whole operation.

They said murder one, that I could be an
accessory to murder one.

Well, there is no way I'm going to sit
still for that.

Oh, no, you figured you'd make a deal.

Cop out on Loretta.

Especially on me.

Right.

That's not what... I meant, Harry. I
just meant that I would split and go to

York or something. That's all I was
talking about.

Harry, don't, please.

Rhett's mother -loving kindness routine
is only good up to a certain point,

kiddo.

We're beyond that.

You need a good straightening out, a
little reminder about just who runs your

life for you.

Harry, don't, please. Look, I'll do
anything you say, really. I will. I'll

anything. Oh, you will, doll.

No.

You looking for Mrs. Gray?

Yes, I am.

Have you seen her?

No, but she should be here in a minute.

Okay, thanks.

Well, they're really getting them young
these days. But I guess that's what they

want.

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

Listen, you're really lucky to get into
a setup like this.

I mean, it's tough out on the street,
especially for a girl your age.

But you know the word is that they
really take care of their girls here,

know They check out the clients before
they send them out, you know, so you

don't end up with some freak out or
something Believe me. I've seen my share

those.

Oh Listen, I'm here to see mrs. Gray.

Yeah, mrs. Gray.

Listen, I've been hearing about her ever
since I've been in the life She's the

best madam in LA

Are you tripping out or something? I
mean, are you all right?

Leland, can I get you something?

I'll be all right. Leave me alone.

Okay.

Honey, those clothes won't do at all.
They're much too obvious.

Oh, you want me to go home and change?

No, there's a little boutique up the
block where some of my girls do their

shopping. Harry, why don't you just take
her there and see what you can find?

Sure, come on down. Let's go.

Okay.

Oh, that other new girl, I'm beginning
to get sick or something.

Other?

Yeah, she's in there.

Godmother. Wait, honey, you don't
understand.

Baby, I can explain.

Really, gentlemen, was it necessary to
come here tonight?

Could it not wait until tomorrow at my
office?

No, I'm afraid it can't, Mr. Leclerc.
You see, we know all about police

Who?

Felice Winders?

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

The way it looks to us, Felice and some
of the ladies in her line of work have

been setting up wealthy clients for
burglary. This has gone far enough,

gentlemen. I must insist you... We're
not just talking about stolen jewels and

insurance this time. There's been a
murder, and sooner or later it'll all

out.

Was Felice alone long enough to let a
burglar in?

Yes.

We were on our way out and she
remembered the scarf she'd left in the

I went up for it and left her alone at
the front door.

Plenty of time to let an accomplice in.

Naturally, you didn't turn on the
burglar alarm until you left the house.

I've been such an idiot.

Can you believe I thought I really meant
something to that woman?

Where did you meet Felice? At the Oak
Lodge?

Oh, no.

I took her there many times.

She seemed to know the people there.

But I first contacted Philippe through a
telephone answering service.

A man must be recommended by a friend
who is one of their customers.

Then when they have checked you out and
they are satisfied you're not the

police, a rendezvous is arranged.

If one wishes, you can even pay with a
credit card.

A very high -toned operation.

Too bad they felt that they had to take
on burglary as a sideline.

Hello.

Yes, he's right here.

Your secretary.

Yes, Betty.

Barnaby, I went to Felice Winter's
apartment to check up on her. Seems she

serious fall from her terrace.

Couldn't have happened more than a few
minutes after you and J .R. talked to

her. Is she hurt badly?

A concussion, several broken bones.

I'm at the hospital now. She's under
sedation.

The doctor says she's going to be all
right, but he doesn't know when she'll

able to answer questions.

Well, you stay there, Betty, and let me
know when she seems to come out of it.

Oh, and be careful, Betty.

This lady has some friends who play
pretty rough.

Okay. Not a sign I had every street
contact I've got looking for her last

She didn't show up to Santa Barbara.

No, I just called the school a few
minutes ago. They haven't heard a word.

I should have gotten out sooner before
this happened.

So she found out.

She'll grow up fast.

She'll get used to the idea.

You really think it's that simple?

Yeah, I do.

She's your daughter and she loves you.

She'll forgive you.

All she wants is a little time to figure
things out. When she does, she'll turn

up.

I hope you're right.

I think I am, Loretta.

In the meantime, business has to go on.

75 ,000.

I got a local fence to take to Leclerc.

It's not clean to Antwerp right now.

They'll re -fence it over there. It's
about half... Half of what we could have

gotten by. But it's safe this way.

It matters anymore.

Look, that's yours.

And when your kid decides to come home
to mother, you take off with her.

Get out of the business like you've been
wanted to.

But you've got a share in what's here.

That's what I'm trying to tell you.

You keep my share.

Down payment on the operation.

I'll pay you off over the next couple of
years out of the profits.

Until you're happy that we're square.

Look, if you want, I'll even put the
deal in some kind of writing.

Maybe that is the best way to work
things out.

Brett.

All I want you to do is think about it.

Look, are you sure it's our answering
service you want? We aren't having any

equipment problems that I know about.

Well, no, you see, the problem is in our
switching circuits when you dial out.

You see, probably you've got bad
ratchets in your dialing module.

Well, I don't know, but I wish you'd
come back after Mrs. Gray gets here. Oh,

come on, honey. Give me a break, will
you? I got six more of these after I

here.

Well, okay.

Lorette Service, can I help you?

Oh, yes, Alice.

He asked for you special.

Mm -hmm.

Said he met you when he was here for the
trade show last fall.

That's right.

Downtown Towers.

Room 804.

That's right there.

Lorette's service. Thank you. I think
I'd better check the front office phone.

Thank you.

Hello, Mr. Robinson.

Has your house burgled lately?

Oh.

Who are you?

Phone company. You, uh, got a little
problem here, but I'll be through in a

minute.

You know, it's none of my business, but
how old are you?

As of last night, I'm going on a
hundred.

And you're right.

None of your business.

Last night, huh?

Sounds heavy.

You've got no idea.

Wendy?

Hi there, mother.

Will you excuse us, please?

Yeah, sure. I'll be finished here in a
minute.

No, just leave it that way and go.

You know how ridiculous you look in that
get -up.

I don't know.

It does attract a man's attention.

I can understand your wanting to hurt
me, Wendy, but don't do it by degrading

yourself. Oh, that's marvelous.

Look who's giving lectures on degrading
yourself.

I suppose there's no way I can make you
understand.

Oh, but I do, Mother.

For the first time, I understand why I
never lived at home.

Why you shipped me off from one private
school to another.

Why you never let me be around this cozy
little business establishment of yours.

I sent you to those schools, Wendy.

Those very good schools.

So you'd have some of the advantages I
never had.

And you paid for those very expensive
good schools with money that you got

hookers.

And maybe for being a hooker yourself.

Were you?

Well, were you?

Okay.

So now it's time I started paying you
back.

Don't cry, Mom.

Please.

I would have done anything to keep you
from knowing.

Can you forgive me?

Can you?

I just hate that it was for me.

That you did all this for me.

It wasn't for you. It was for me.

Because I wanted money.

I needed it when your father skipped.

And this just seemed the easiest way to
get it.

Oh, baby.

and clean.

New life.

Please.

Okay.

Will you do something for me?

Wash all that guck off your face.

Oh, baby.

Hi, is Betty Jones or Barnaby Jones
there, please?

Jones? One moment.

Miss Jones, telephone.

Then she won't be released right away.

It's just too early to tell until we see
more X -rays.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Yes, hello?

Betty, J .R., is Barnaby there?

Oh, no, J .R., he just went in to see
Felice. The doctor says she's coming out

of it. Any message?

Yeah, yeah. Tell him that I got into the
answering service office and I found

this client book with some names of
burglary victims among a lot of others.

Anyway, I've seen enough evidence to
involve Lieutenant Biddle. I think it's

search warrant time.

All right, JR.

I'll call Lieutenant Biddle right now.

I'll talk to you later.

You're scared now, Felice. And that's
exactly what whoever did this to you

wanted to happen.

To scare you so that you wouldn't blow
the whistle on them.

Yeah, well, it worked.

But don't you see, the only way to be
safe, to be really safe, is to put them

where they couldn't do this to you again
or to anyone else.

I don't know if I could just get away
from here, if I could just go someplace

where he couldn't find me.

You have a broken leg?

How far can you run on that?

You're a nice man, aren't you?

I mean, really nice.

You don't meet too many of those in my
line of work.

That might tell you something about your
line of work, mightn't it?

Harry Brenner.

Harry Brenner.

He's the one who chased me off that
terrace.

He's also the one who killed the guard
at LeClaire's house.

Any idea where I might find this Mr.

Brenner? He works for Lorette Gray. He's
never very far away from where she is.

Can you believe it?

A nice lady like that.

Do you feel up to describing Brenner for
me?

Born to be, J .R. Thought I'd check in.

Jedediah, where are you?

Well, I followed Lorette Gray and her
daughter.

They left the answering service, drove
to their house in West Hollywood.

Oh, man, did you hear that?

Some jerk in a convertible just went
racing by. I thought he was going to

phone booth with him.

You know, I think he's headed to
Lorette's place.

Did you get a look at him?

The big guy, dark hair?

Yeah, that looked like him. Who is he?

Harry Brenner, the man who killed the
security guard. Where are you?

What are you doing here?

You've got some explaining to do. The
records client was everything I need to

keep the business going. Now, where is
it?

Gone, just like I'll be as soon as I get
packed.

Wendy came back this morning.

Well, that's just peachy keen.

Lorette, you promised me I could buy you
out.

Wrong. I never said I'd sell out. I said
I'd think about it, which I did, and it

came out no sale.

Even my money's not good enough for you,
is it?

Nobody's money, Harry. The business is
not for sale.

Why?

Why not?

Because, Harry, I don't want anything
left behind that can tie me to what I've

been doing for the last too many years.

Nothing. I want all the way out, just
clean out.

What am I supposed to do, just stand
here and watch you pack up and take off?

Well, you should have saved some of the
money I've been paying you.

Then you could have bought your own
stable of girls and gone into business

yourself. Except I don't think it would
have worked.

You don't have the makings of a real
successful pimp, Harry.

You're not nice enough.

Barnaby, they're still in there, but
it's pretty quiet so far.

I found this in your closet. And Fitz,
too.

Hi, Mr. Brenner. Yeah, you'll be wearing
all my things now, baby.

Come on, let's get everything packed.

Away from there.

I gave you my share of the Claire job,
remember?

A little down payment on the business.

It's in the envelope there with your
name on it.

Harry, I'm warning you.

All right, where's the rest of them?

In the car, right?

Yeah, you wouldn't have had time to get
rid of it.

Will you just stop and lose your head
for half a minute?

You're in no position to go pushing me
around.

Remember the LeClaire thing?

What you left in front of the house?

I was waiting for that.

Oh, you just said the magic words,
Cookie.

Sweet 16, you're coming with me. Come
on.

Mom! Now the border scene goes up!

All right, listen.

Listen, we don't have to do it this way.
We can do it your way.

Oh, you bet we can, love.

Only my way just changed a little bit.

I mean, I can't stay here and run the
business now and I'm with you waving a

murder rap in my face.

No, Wendy's gonna go with me.

And you're gonna clean all your bank
accounts out, everything, all your

sell them and get me the cash.

When you do, maybe then you'll get your
little girl back in one piece.

Terry, it's not Wendy. Yes, Wendy!

Looks like you really hit the jackpot
this time, won't it be?

I expect you're going to live, Mr.
Brennan.

That's quite a haul.

All the records from the prostitution
operation.

Plus, enough evidence for a strong case
in the burglaries.

I think Mrs. Gray will cooperate.

I think she was getting sick of what she
was doing about the time it all started

to fall apart.

They're sending a matron to take care of
you.

But you're still a minor.

I guess it's the law or something.

Okay.

Whatever.

You'll be all right, baby.

I'm just sorry I have to grow up so
fast.

I know it isn't easy, but you've got to
try to remember the good things.

That she loved you.

Will I ever get to see her?

I'm sure you will.

And she's going to need all the love you
can give her now, Wendy.
