All language subtitles for Hunter s04e11 Allegra.eng

The best way to start having fun is to
just close your eyes and jump off of the

cliff. There's something very strange
about this case.

I'm going to find out what it is.

Allegra's an easy girl to fall in love
with. Now, I think that that makes her

uncle one very wealthy priest.

A guy like that, he could buy witnesses
by the pound. You break into my house,

you follow me. If you're trying to hide
from me, Rick Hunter, you're going to

have to do a much better job than that.

Hey, you're not supposed to be parking
there. Who elected you, Mayor?

Listen, Sonny.

Somebody threw her right out the window.

Twelve stories.

She hit the metal awning on the way down
and rolled off onto the pool deck.

First impact probably killed her.

Ruben's up there now.

Any ID on her, boy?

Her name's Ligra Bryant.

What?

You know her?

Yeah, I, uh...

Somebody tossed a very pretty girl out
that window.

Put up a heck of a fight.

Not good enough, Dee Dee.

You handle this.

Looks like it's going to be a tough one.

She was beautiful, wealthy, parents to
see, had a huge trust fund.

She was a bit of a playgirl.

And that's not really anything you don't
know, is it?

No, it's not.

So where'd you meet this girl? You never
mentioned her. It was way before your

time. I mean, our time as partners.

Garamond and I had just finished working
the Echo Park case. I was exhausted, so

I drove down to Lagoon Beach.

And there she was.

What are you looking at?

Actually, I'm looking at a very pretty
girl who has walked back and forth in

front of me three times in the last five
minutes.

That obvious, huh?

Yeah.

My name's Allegra Bryant.

Hey, Allegra. Rick Hunter, pull up a
sandbag. Thank you.

You're in a blast, aren't you?

Actually, I am. Isn't it obvious?

Oh, it is, of course.

You've got your radio and your book
and... Liquid

refreshment. Hey, where I come from,
that's called breaking and entering.

it. And where exactly do you come from?

I don't think you want to know that now,
do you? Can I be completely honest with

you? Do I have a choice?

No.

I've been watching you for the past
couple of days, and you're having a

miserable time.

Now, I know that you didn't come here
intending to have a miserable time.

Well, believe me, I'm having a very nice
time. Trust me on that.

Came down to read my book, enjoy the
day, and up until about, oh, I guess

a minute or so ago, I was having just
that, a wonderful time.

Come on, you don't have to lie to me.

You came here to have fun, and it's just
not happening. You just need a little

guidance from the specialist. That's
all.

Where do you think I might find that
specialist?

Somehow this will surprise me.

Well, this specialist in particular has
found that the best way to start having

fun is to just close your eyes and jump
off of a cliff.

Is that a fact?

It is a fact.

Come on.

Oh, wait.

Okay.

That's the cliff.

Now just walk up to it.

No, don't look down. You'll get dizzy.

You know, the last time I felt like
this, I was at the top of the Empire

Building. I don't like it.

It's okay.

Just close your eyes and hold my hand.

I'll tell you what.

I'll hold your hand, but I won't close
my eyes so I can look at you all the way

down.

But I'm free, we jump. Yeah, I'm
counting on you to get me through this.

me. Put your foot back.

Ready, one.

Yeah. Yeah.

I think you had a great time today, Ace.

Oh, I take that as a compliment. Thank
you.

You're welcome.

Tell me something.

Are you really a policeman on vacation
or are you here to arrest somebody?

Well, actually, I'm here to have a nice,
quiet vacation.

Me too.

Really? Well, I didn't think you did
this for a living.

But I do.

Is Allegra here?

Who?

Allegra Bryant.

Is she here?

Oh, you mean the girl who was here
before me?

She canceled or something.

Hey, it worked out great as far as I'm
concerned. I mean, I...

She was reserved

for the full week.

Checked out after five days. Left last
night at...

3 a .m. Were you working the desk,
Henry? Oh, yes, I was. She seemed a bit

rushed, if that's what you're asking.

I got the impression that something
might have happened that required her

immediate attention.

Did she leave any messages?

Not a lot.

Thanks. So that was it? Did you ever see
her again?

Yeah. She called me about eight days
later.

Hunter. I guess you weren't lying.

said that you were a cop. Do you know
that I had to call seven divisions

I finally ran you down?

Now, if you're trying to hide from me,
Rick Hunter, you're going to have to do

much better job than that.

Allegra, what happened? Where are you?

Oh, I'm sitting in the lounge at the
Norfolk Hotel at a very highly visible

table in an exceedingly eye -catching
dress.

I'll be right there.

So, you took off in the middle of the
night, yeah?

Ah, it was the middle of the night here.

But in Europe, it was the middle of the
afternoon. It was perfect tanning

weather. What possessed you to do that?

I got a phone call from an old friend.

Well, I haven't seen her in three years.
She's been living in the south of

France.

And she just broke up with her
boyfriend. She asked me to be with her.

You expect me to believe that?

Well, of course.

A friend is a friend, and it was the
middle of the night. Remember, I didn't

want to wake you up.

Have you ever been on dinner?

For some reason, going to my left is
worse than going to my right.

Saw each other every other day or so for
a while, and then she made reservations

at a very, very nice restaurant.

She never showed up.

Now I ask you, how could you get serious
with anybody who behaves that way?

She never could say goodbye.

So what'd you do?

Well, I went looking for some answers. I
looked up her uncle. He's a priest.

Really? Yeah.

He's got a church about, uh, only a two
-hour drive north of Los Angeles.

You see, you have to, you have to
realize that Allegra has a certain

people. She tends to elate and then
disappoint.

Now, it's not a willful capriciousness.
It's her, it's her nature.

She follows her heart.

If Allegra's heart tells her it's time
to fly off to the Himalayas, well, off

you go.

Is that where she is? Oh, no, I don't
know, I don't know. That's just an

example.

No, I'm her only living relative, but
she... She rarely keeps in touch.

She never tells me where she's going.

I know my friend, it's hard.

Allegra's an easy girl to fall in love
with, isn't she?

Yes, she is.

Thanks for your time.

Please stay.

Ten days later, she shows up in my
house, in my kitchen, cooking me dinner.

Where was she this time? Outer Mongolia?

No, the Amazon.

Are you kidding?

No.

As she put it, I had the sudden urge for
tropical jungles.

Okay, so she's back from the Amazon.

How long did she stay this time before
she decided to disappear?

About two weeks.

Oh, well, you guys were made for each
other.

How long did this go on?

Well, it didn't.

What I'm trying to tell you, Allegra, is
I don't want to do this anymore.

Okay, then let's sit down. No.

That's not what I mean, and you know it.

I'm talking about your lifestyle.

It's not working out for me.

But that's the way that I am.

Allegra, how do you think I feel every
time you take off and vanish into thin

air?

I don't know when you're coming back, or
I don't even know if you're coming

back. How are we supposed to, uh... How
are we supposed to get to know one

another?

How pretty they are.

You know, they only bloom a couple of
months out of the year.

Would you love them as much if you could
see them every day?

I can't change for you, Rick.

Not for you, not for anyone.

I'm sorry.

Allegra, all I'm asking you to do is
tell me when you take off.

Is that too much to ask?

I just hate to say goodbye.

So that was it?

No, actually, she called me six months
later.

Could have guessed that.

We had lunch.

She said she had all these new and
exciting things for us to do, but I said

That was it.

Well, she was beautiful and wealthy.

We just got to figure out who would want
to kill her.

Only living relative is the uncle.

He's the only one that stands to inherit
anything.

Yeah, it makes him a prime suspect.

What are you talking about, McCall? He's
a Jesuit priest. They take a vow of

poverty.

Well, priest or not, he's still a lead.

What did you say? He was a couple hours'
drive away from here?

McCall, relax.

I'll take care of this, okay?

You take care of Jack.

I don't know.

Eight months since I saw her.

Father, do you know anybody who might
have taken her life?

No. Did she mention anybody lately?
Somebody that maybe she was involved

There was a man she spoke of once.

Johnny...

Johnny Martino.

Johnny Martino.

I believe he's associated with one of
the hotels in Nevada.

Here, this ought to hold you for a
couple of days, all right? Johnny, I

want your money. I want us to spend more
time together.

Maybe next week, baby. I got a lot of
business to do the next few days.

you promised.

Excuse me.

Sergeant Hunter.

Johnny Martino. Ray, come on in. Thanks
for calling.

I'll talk to you later, okay, baby? Bye.

Can I get you a drink?

Not for me, thank you.

Excuse me, I'll have one.

You're a smart man.

It's bad for the internal plumbing.

How well does you know Allegra?

As well as anybody, probably.

She was in love with me.

I was down in your neck of the woods
about two years ago on a vacation in one

those tennis hot tub places.

And we met on the court.

I wasn't in the hot tub.

I don't know, one thing led to another.
Did you know her?

Yeah, we had met.

She romanticized me as some kind of a
gangster, I think.

She wanted me to have a nickname like
Nicky Bananas, Pauly the Weasel,

please. I don't want to be known as a
piece of fruit or some kind of a rodent.

Anyway, when you were coming in, did you
notice that hotel across the street?

Yeah, the big hotel?

Mm -hmm.

When I was 25 years old, I had 12 points
in that place.

Of course, things weren't so clean in
those days, but maybe I knew a few

But I never was in no mob, not then, not
now.

So what happened between you and
Allegra?

Oh, that didn't last.

I'm afraid I'm not a one -woman man.

I've got a lot of business investments,
and I'm surrounded by beautiful women 24

hours a day.

Allegra didn't like that too much.

So we called it quits.

That was about a year ago.

I haven't seen her since.

Have you heard from her in that time?

She left a lot of messages, but I never
returned any of the calls.

Too bad.

Funny girl.

Sure I can't get you one of these?

Only take a second.

No, thanks.

Sergeant Hunter?

Yeah. You want to come with me?

Why? Somebody might speak to me.

Yeah.

Over here.

Remember me?

You're on in five minutes, girl. Yeah,
you're the girl in Johnny Martinez.

Yeah, Michelle.

Sergeant. Hunter. Right.

You're here about Allegra, aren't you?

Yeah. If I know Johnny, he told you that
Allegra was nuts about him and he blew

her off, right?

Right. Figures.

Johnny'd never admit the truth to
another man.

He was completely in love with her,
wanted to marry her.

She drove him crazy, strung him along
for months.

She'd disappear for weeks at a time.
She'd call from Greece and tell him the

weather was great. He'd drop everything
and fly there.

She'd be gone.

Drove him absolutely insane.

He kept trying to track her down,
bothering all her other friends.

She finally told him to leave her alone.

She wasn't in love with him.

Why are you telling me all this?

Because I'm sick of hearing about
Allegra this and Allegra that.

I met Johnny six months after she dumped
him, and still that's all we could talk

about.

It got better for a while, but now he's
a basket case again.

Now, if Johnny could stop kidding
himself about her, maybe the two of us

have a chance.

Look, I just can't compete with some
fantasy chick. Three minutes. Let's move

it.

Well, look, I appreciate the
information.

Thanks very much. Don't mention it.

Are you going to stay for the show?

No. Next time around, I will. Okay.

Thanks.

I've got 12 witnesses that say Martino
was in Las Vegas the

day Allegra was murdered.

Now, I checked all the flights from
Vegas to Los Angeles.

No Martino. Well, if he doesn't own a
plane, he can borrow one. I mean, a guy

like that, he could buy witnesses by the
pound. Charlie, I know that. But right

now, the guy checks out.

Put a check on Allegra's finances.

Recent estimates put her trust at 50
million bucks.

All of that money went to one heir when
she was killed.

Now, I think that that makes her uncle
one very wealthy priest.

Are you going to continue this?

What's the story on you two?

McCall thinks just because the guy's
going to inherit 50 million dollars that

should make him a number one suspect.

Well, it sounds logical to me.

Will you guys get off the guy?

He's a Jesuit priest. He had nothing to
do with this. Trust me on that.

Now, you seem a little edgy, Hunter.

Are you sure you're giving us the whole
story here? Yeah, I'm edgy, Charlie.

I've been edgy ever since the girl was
murdered. Now, there's something strange

about this case.

I'm going to find out what it is.

You're under arrest.

What for?

Interference with a police officer.

Suspicion of breaking and entering.

And how about the murder of Allegra
Bryant?

Nice garden.

Thank you.

I was wondering if you could tell me if
there's a place around here where people

get together, you know, and just hang
out.

Oh, I'd like to say my church, but
unfortunately that is not the case.

Well, there aren't any clubs or bars.
No,

that's not what I meant. See, I'm just
driving up the coast, and it's just so

very pretty here. I thought it would be
nice to stay over a couple of nights,

take a little time.

Well, you might try Mrs. McGinnis across
the street. She runs a bed and

breakfast. People from the city often
stop there when they come through.

Okay.

Good, thank you. Not at all. Bye.

Come in out of that rain. Looking for a
place to stay?

Well, actually, I was just driving
through and, um... Well, a friend of

Allegra Bryant, used to tell me about
this spot. So I just thought I'd stop.

So awful.

Yeah.

You knew Allegra?

I've known her for years.

She was here just last week.

Last week, you sure?

Yes.

Just a few days before she died.

Thank you.

Allegra visits her Uncle Father Michaels
all the time.

Well, he lets her use the little house
behind the church.

That's funny. I don't remember her
saying anything about that. Are you sure

it was last week? Well, she came in for
breakfast. She does that sometimes.

Oh.

Here I am, rattling on about her like
she's still alive.

Sad end to a sad life.

What do you mean?

Well, you know, you know how some people
seem to walk around with a black cloud

over their head?

That was Allegra, right?

Used to sit right over there, stare into
her coffee and not say a word for hours

and hours.

Saddest girl I've ever seen.

It's a shame.

So pretty and all.

Are you sure we're talking about the
same person here?

That's Allegra.

First time I've ever seen her smile.

I don't think you realize who you're
talking to. You're a number one suspect

a murder case. I was in Vegas when that
girl was killed and you know it.

but she didn't want you.

And if she couldn't be with you, she
wasn't going to be with anybody.

And that's why you killed her. No!

Are you through? No, I'm not through,
Johnny. I got one more thing I'm going

do. I'm going to book you for first
-degree murder.

Don't go away.

Hold it, hold it, hold it. Wait a minute
here.

All right, look, I'll talk.

I was in love with Allegra.

Is that what you want to hear, Sergeant
Hunter?

Is that what you want to know?

No, Johnny, that's not what I want to
hear. I want to know why you're in Los

Angeles.

I figured if you had some lead on the
guy that did it, I could find out.

I want to kill this guy myself.

Look, I know how it works.

You guys are going to bust the guy that
did it.

Then he's going to beat the rap, or else
he'll plea bargain his way into a

second -degree murder beef.

He'll catch 20 years, and he'll be on
the street in seven. Uh -uh.

Not this time.

The guy that threw Allegra out that
window is going to die.

One way or the other, he's going to die.

We'll see about that, Sidon.

That guy would rather go to the gas
chamber than admit he was in love with a

woman. Yeah.

I just got back. I went up and visited
Allegra's uncle.

Well, you didn't tell me you were going
up there.

No, that's because you and I have a
difference of opinion concerning this

particular priest.

And, uh, I feel he's a strong suspect,
and so I had to act accordingly.

What'd you find out?

I found out he lied to you.

He said that Allegra had not been up to
visit him in eight months, and that's

not true.

She was up to see him the week before
she was killed.

Wait a minute. Did he tell you that?

No, I went and talked with a neighbor.

She said that Allegra went up to visit
her uncle several times a year.

She was up there just last week.

Was there a passport inventoried in the
stuff from Allegra's apartment?

I don't know. I don't remember.

Not one piece of Stanton has passed
away.

All the time she said she was out of the
country, she was lying to me.

She never left, not once.

Well, that's it. I'm going to go have a
talk with Father Michael.

Wait a second.

There's something else that I wanted to
tell you. What?

Just, when you get up there, don't be
surprised if you find out that Allegra

not who you think she was.

Father Michaels, I know Allegra was in
town one week before she was murdered.

We talked to Mrs. McGinnis.

Yes, I'm sorry. That's true.

Father, you told me you hadn't seen her
in eight months. Why?

Allegra made me promise to tell no one.

about this place or her visits.

And in honor of her memory, I kept that
promise.

She spent most of the time in that
little house out back there as if there

something somewhere she didn't want to
face.

I couldn't guess what it was. She barely
said a word.

It doesn't sound like a word.

She has a statue just like this in her
apartment.

Yes, the original was a gift from my
grandmother when I took my vows.

I gave it to Allegra for her
confirmation.

Thank you very much, Father.

Sergeant, no matter what Allegra was, or
why,

there was still no reason for someone to
kill her.

And so, brutally.

huh knock it off or i'll call a cop be
my guest lady big deal my cop

can take her cop any day of the week
rick come on i'm busting out of here and

you're invited

Where you been?

I know who killed Allegra Bryant.

Spent the morning talking to some
psychiatrists about Allegra's problems.

All of them seemed to agree on one
thing. She sounded like a classic case

manic depressive psychosis.

These doctors are going to stipulate to
that fact for our records.

Let me show you something.

You notice anything about this statue?

Damn, it's the only thing in the whole
place that's not broken.

Exactly. Father Michaels gave it to
Allegra for a confirmation.

There's a life -and -death struggle
going on in this place, and the statue

the only thing that isn't broken?

Take a look at this place. It's trashed.
Everything is broken, except this,

laying down in the middle of the floor.

I think I got you.

There was no struggle for life and death
here.

Well, they were committed suicide.

But how are we going to report it?

Well, look, her last wish was to protect
her uncle from the pain of her

decision. I'd kind of like to respect
that.

Yeah, but if we do that, then we're
going to have to report it as an

murder.

And if we do that, that means 50 years
from now, there are going to be two

homicide detectives just like you and me
investigating the Allegra Bryant case.

I know.

Yes, I am.

Father Michaels, Allegra was
experiencing some very difficult mood

wasn't she?

She was.

But she refused to be treated, didn't
she?

Yes.

I suggested it more than once.

Allegra wouldn't even discuss it with
me.

What you two very compassionate people
are gently trying to ask is, did it ever

occur to me that she may have killed
herself?

Yes.

That may have been my first thought.

But I've also seen photographs of her
apartment.

And I've read about evidence that
Allegra put up a terrible struggle

died. There is no evidence putting
anybody who would want to kill her in

apartment, Father.

All the evidence points to suicide.

But that would still be an opinion,
wouldn't it, Sergeant?

I mean, we are discussing a matter of
opinion here, not fact.

Yes, we are.

Well, then, by all means, Sergeant, you
have your opinion.

And I shall have mine.

An individual who takes his own life
rarely does so without leaving a note

behind. Allegro was loved and cherished
by so many people.

If she had taken her own life, she would
have left a note.

I'm convinced of that.

What do you think?

I know Allegra would have never left a
suicide note.

Why?

Because she could never say goodbye.

Goodbye is so... I don't know. It's just
so final.

It just doesn't work for me.

Now, in some faraway lands...

People have a single word that means
both goodbye and hello.

It's sort of a generalized, all
-purpose, one -size -fits -all verbal

Okay, it's a small improvement, very
small.

But it doesn't address the full gravity
of the question.

It's like if you say goodbye, you're not
really sure

you're ever coming back.

Not absolutely positive.

I think goodbye has a bit of an end in
it.

There is a chance that you will never
see that person again.

And I think that people die a little bit
every time that they say it.

So, Rick, promise me that you won't ever

say goodbye.

Not until it really is goodbye. Then you
can.

Then I won't mind.

I'll be in a place where I won't mind at
all.
