All language subtitles for Telling Secrets Full Movie

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first
officer.

You'll be glad to hear that we have made
up the hour we lost on departure and we

will be arriving in Acapulco in 30
minutes.

Please return to your seats and fasten
your seatbelts.

Mrs.

Kelsey, please take your seat.

I'm not feeling well. I need the
bathroom.

Are you feeling better now?

Wonderful, thank you.

Why did you hit Josh?

He's your best friend and it's his
birthday today.

Why were you bad?

I felt bad.

I felt bad a lot.

Sasha, I know it's been hard on you,
Mommy and Daddy not living together

anymore, but that's no excuse for you
misbehaving.

You know what I'm talking about?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

Come on. After your nap, I'll take you
to Daddy's office.

Do I have to take a nap?

Just a little one.

Afternoon, man.

Delivery for Stacey Eckert.

Thank you. They're beautiful.

Nothing to see here, folks. Step back,
please. Nothing to see. Give us some

room.

What do we

got?

She's alive.

Shot in the back of the head. Can't tell
how many times.

Pretty weird scene in there.

Who's the little girl?

Victim's four -year -old. She found her.

Oh,

baby. Who are you, sir? Dr. Philip
Eckert. This is my daughter.

What's happened here?

Is this your residence, doctor? No, it's
not. It's my wife's home. We're

separated now.

My daughter calls me.

Somebody please tell me what's going on
here.

Cliff?

She was on her stomach.

He shoved tissues down her throat so far
she couldn't scream.

Was she raped?

I don't think so.

Stocking was around her neck, pillow
over her head, suffocated, strangled,

It's amazing she's still alive.

Jay, you better come out here.

Hey, this is Dr. Eckhart, the victim's
husband. Doctor, I'm Detective Johnson.

Will somebody tell me what has happened?

Where's my wife? Is she hurt?

Mrs. Eckhart's been taken to the
hospital.

How'd you find out about this?

My daughter called me, and my attorney
advises me not to say anything until he

gets here.

You've already spoken to your attorney?

I called from my car.

My wife and I are separated, so I'd be
an obvious suspect if anything has

happened to her.

How badly she hurt.

I have to get to the hospital.

Well, I'm going to need a statement from
you first.

Unless you want to wait for your
attorney.

I'll wait.

Just take your hands off me.

Easy.

Terry Kelsey, victim's fiance.

Where's Stacy?

Someone said she's been shot.

If you've heard her, you'll have me to
deal with. Oh, please.

Mrs. Eckhart's been taken to the
hospital. I'm Detective Jensen.

Would you gentlemen mind coming down to
my office? I have some questions.

I got nothing to hide.

Fine. I'll be right with you.

All right.

Do you believe this?

Two suspects deliver themselves right to
the scene of the crime.

My money's on the husband.

Boyfriend's pretty hinky.

Sasha.

Sasha, I have to ask you some more
questions.

I do, sweetie.

I just have a couple more questions I
have to ask you.

Is that okay?

Do you remember what it sounded like,
what woke you up?

Like I hit the floor with my hammer.

And did you see anybody?

I want my mommy with my mommy.

Last year we decided to put in a larger
pool.

That's when I made my biggest mistake.

I picked...

Kelsey to be the contractor.

Mr. Terry Kelsey.

I knew something was going on between
them. I taped the phone calls. You

hear the tapes.

Disgusting garbage.

You know how I proved it?

Her panties.

I found a pair in the laundry and I sent
them to the lab to have them tested for

semen.

It was there all right.

And it certainly wasn't mine.

She hadn't been near me in months.

Where were you this afternoon, sir?

It's right there.

I told the officer already.

You want to know who shot Stacy?

You talk to Terry Kelsey.

Because I believe she was coming back to
me.

That doctor, she's a real piece of work.

Then he treats her like dirt.

This is a classy lady who deserves the
best.

Uh, Mr. Kelsey, when did you last see
Mrs. Eckert?

This afternoon.

She drops Sasha off at daycare.

Then she comes on my rounds with me.

I built swimming pools, Mr. Jensen. Best
in Phoenix.

I got my reputation to keep up.

I'm sure you do.

And after your rounds?

She came back to my apartment and we
went to bed.

And what time did she leave?

Ten after two.

I checked my watch. I'd taken it off and
put it on the nightstand, you know, and

then she had to take it after some
birthday party.

Would you look over your statement, sign
it if it's accurate?

Two weeks.

Is it?

Yes, that's not counting.

Feed the dogs?

I'm going to do that later.

So what happened?

A woman was shot in the head a couple of
times.

We got two suspects, an estranged
husband and a boyfriend.

I think this one's going to be really
messy.

Your case is on the door.

Listen, is there any chance of you being
home late if I can get the dishwasher

guy to step over?

Not today.

I've got four houses to show this
morning.

I'm sorry, hon.

You can leave them for me to do when I
get back.

That's what I did the last time.

It's all right. I'll see if I can set it
up for when I'm off duty.

Nice place.

I guess Terry Kelsey makes lots of money
building pools.

Let's see.

Her blood work's normal, nothing
unusual. The only prints the lab has

so far are hers and the kid's.

How many other prints have they left?

One, maybe two, waiting on an ID.

What about the flowers?

Well, Ted Kelty bought a roses two days
before the attack.

Flores said there was no delivery. He
paid cash, took them with him.

Just a minute.

Yeah?

Is Mr. Kelty home?

Uh, yeah, come on in.

Hey, Mom.

These two guys here to see you.

Detective Jensen?

Yes, ma 'am.

Mrs. Kelsey, I'm Detective Taylor.

Where were we?

After Terry got out of the service.

Oh, right, and we'd started the
business.

We did very well.

Harry's always been very conscientious
about the reputation of the company.

I think it has something to do with the
way he sees himself.

It's the only thing he's ever done
right.

And you worked with him?

Yes, I kept the books, made deals with
suppliers, and did some landscaping. I

did this house, too.

That's real nice.

Thank you.

Mom?

Hi, honey. Detective Jensen, Detective
Taylor. This is my son, Danny.

Hi. Mom, I took ten bucks out of your
wallet. I'm going out. Where are you

going? I don't know. I'm just going out.

I'll see you later.

Okay.

It was nice meeting you.

Yeah, bye, Danny.

Don't forget to check the dog's water,
Danny. Oh, okay.

Bye.

Do you have any children, Mr. Jensen?

No, ma 'am, I don't.

A boy and a girl.

Ma 'am, can you tell us where you were
on the afternoon of October 12th?

That was last Thursday.

Oh, yes, I had lunch with my best
girlfriend from high school, Sally.

We had salad. She's always on a diet.

And Danny came home about 3, 3 .15. And,
oh, yes, my dad dropped by about 4. All

very boring, I'm afraid.

This is a personal question, Mrs.
Kelsey, but I'm afraid I have to ask it.

Your husband's relationship with Stacey
Eckert, when did you become aware of it?

He told me right away.

We didn't have any secrets from each
other.

She wasn't the first.

I bet I know what you're thinking, that
I'm a terrible wife. They always say

it's the wife's fault if a husband
strays.

No, not always.

At least not in my experience.

Oh, thank you. That's very kind of you
to say that.

What was different this time was, well,
this is the first time he's ever left me

for one of his women.

Was there any talk of Stacy going back
to her husband?

Oh, I don't think so. But if she had, I
don't know what Terry would have done.

I don't want to talk badly about my
husband just because he left me.

But sometimes I think he likes to hurt
me.

He sure knows how.

The latest threat is taking Danny away
from me.

Terry says I'm a terrible mother, but
that's not true.

I love my son more than anything in the
world, and he loves me.

I'm sure he does.

I'm sorry someone tried to kill her, and
I hope she's going to be all right.

I'm a mother, too, and I think about
that little girl.

Little girl, isn't it?

Yeah, I can't stop thinking about her.

The husband?

Unless he could have done it between
three cavities and a root canal.

How about the boyfriend?

I wish it was that easy.

Terry Kelsey's got about a dozen
construction workers that are willing to

testify he was nowhere near the crime
scene that day.

How about the wife? She certainly had a
motive.

Aren't you going to solve this one for
me?

Faith Kelsey seems about as much a
victim in this as Stacey Eckert's little

girl.

Does Ms. Victim have an alibi?

Yeah, she has an alibi.

She was with a girlfriend, her boy was
home from school, and her father stopped

by to see her that day.

Is that good enough for you, Super
Slytherin?

He shot her twice.

First, in the right temporal area.

and then here in the back of the head.

The weapon was a .22 caliber.

Both shells were found, one in the bed
and the other in the ambulance.

What about prints, Ron?

Well, Kelsey's were all over the house,
nothing on Eckerd. The tissue found in

her mouth was from the nightstand and
the rope. You can buy it at any hardware

store.

We're working on the weapon.

We're going back three years to see
who's purchased the .22, but that's a

shot. It's going to take time.

There have been four similar attacks in
North Phoenix since March, plus the

nurse who was strangled two blocks from
Oakwood the night after Stacey.

You think we got a serial here, Jay?

It could be, but the M .O .s are
different.

Those were both break -ins, burglaries.

No sign of a struggle here.

Whoever shot Stacey Eckert didn't break
in. She let him in.

I don't know, maybe somebody posing as
an employee for the phone company.

Well, maybe the lady will wake up and
we'll learn something.

At St.

John's Hospital today, doctors turned
off the life support systems of Stacey

Eckert, victim of a bizarre shooting at
her home on Thursday.

It was apparent that Mrs. Eckert had no
chance of survival.

Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick
Cabrillo, and her sister, Nancy Winfrey,

here from Richmond, Virginia, made the
decision with her doctors.

Mrs. Eckert, 33 years old, a high school
English teacher, leaves the daughter, 4

-year -old Sasha, who is now in the care
of her father.

Oh, Mark, that poor little girl.

Maybe you can adopt her.

Yes,

are you ready?

They're here.

Yeah, I'll be right there.

Go in and get him, Clue. He's staring at
the TV screen like an idiot.

All right.

Hey, Dreamer, let's get going. Movie
starts in 20 minutes.

Hey, Susie Q, come here.

Oh, you smell good.

Hey, you want to play secrets? I got a
real good one for you. Make it a short

one, okay?

Okay, okay.

I'm in a house with this guy I know,
okay, right?

And he's in the bedroom.

You've got this woman tied up, right?

Remember now, it's a secret.

Yeah, okay.

Good morning.

Hi.

You didn't get in until four in the
morning.

Mm -hmm. Where were you?

Over at Cody's. Why didn't you call?

Look, honey, I know there have been a
lot of changes lately, with Marcus being

around and your father not here. Who
cares about him?

But I want you to remember, none of this
had anything to do with you and me.

Okay? Mm -hmm.

And next time you spend the night with
Cody, would you please call me?

Hmm?

Are you all right?

I am now.

I love you.

Yeah, me too.

Sure, I want to be around for Danny. A
boy his age needs a father.

But he wasn't the problem.

Well, let's face it.

Marriage hasn't been good in a while.

That's my fault, Terry.

And I'm sorry.

But I know if you give me another
chance, we can make it work.

Faith.

Look.

I know I haven't been too great a
husband lately. That's not true.

I haven't given you what you needed. No
wonder you looked elsewhere.

Terry.

I want you to love me.

I want it to be like it was.

It's almost Thanksgiving. Think of
Danny.

I want it to be a family again.

I thought that long -legged weasel was
out of her life.

Now, Walter, it's up to faith. People
should stay together if they can.

Even if it's just for the children.

Should we invite both the Bennett boys
to my party? Aren't they still suing

other? Yeah.

Now they're fighting over who gets to
use their daddy's attorney.

Then I shouldn't invite them.

No, by all means, invite them.

Might liven things up around here.

Walter, it's my birthday party.

Exactly.

Eli?

Yes, sir?

Mix me a drink, please.

I told him not to bring those dogs over
here.

They're tearing up the yard.

That's right, Walter. I heard you tell
him.

Walter. Hey, Marcus.

You remember my wife, Kate?

Who could forget a face as pretty as
this one?

Wow. Looks like Marcus is back with
Kate, huh?

A lot of reconciliation going around.

Did you tell your father I moved back
in? Yeah, he was thrilled.

Yeah, right.

Oh, Sally, you look fabulous.

I thought the blue would be better with
your eyes. Well, you look positively

virginal, darling.

Now, how can that be?

I thought you said that no good son of a
bitch was out of your life.

It's bad enough that he's got a
girlfriend and gets herself murdered so

whole town knows about us.

And then you want him back.

My God, girl, don't you have any self
-respect? I have plenty of self

You turn your back on me.

He humiliates you in front of the whole
damn world.

And then he comes in here tonight and
struts around like a stud turkey.

Wait a minute. I took him back because
of you.

You're the one who's always going on
about how important the family is. You

told me it was my fault he was playing
around on me.

All I said was that it's a wife's
responsibility to keep a family

That's what I'm trying to do.

I want my son to have a father.

I'm not doing it for me.

I'm doing it for Danny.

If you don't love him, leave him.

You didn't leave mother.

Well, that's different.

I wasn't raised to quit. Not even on
marriage.

Well, you didn't raise me to quit
either.

Oh, honey.

I sure didn't.

Why?

Why take him back now? Marcus, keep your
voice down.

Look at him.

You don't love him. You never did.

No, I don't love him.

But we've been married for 15 years and
I'm used to him.

I'm used to knowing what he's thinking,
where he's going.

Isn't that why you went back to Kate?

I guess there's no point in waiting
around for you, is there?

You never know.

Don't mess with me, Faith.

You can't afford to.

Don't threaten me, Marcus, if you're too
stupid to see it. See what?

You're going to have Terry hanging
around us for the rest of your life?

Not for the rest of my life, Marcus. I
promise you that.

Now, here's the guy with the motive.
He's one of the richest men in the

and his son -in -law is making his
daughter miserable.

Well, if he's going to kill anybody, why
doesn't he kill Terry?

Because maybe Faith loves Terry.

Oh, you've got to be kidding me. What do
you think?

I think we've got a lot of other cases
to deal with. I think it's been months

since this murder. You think I'm wasting
my time.

All I know is that you're spending a lot
more time on this Eckerd case than you

are anything else. I'm not going to give
it up.

Why not?

I don't know.

Maybe because of the little girl.

Oh, come on, Jay. You're a cop. You
can't get that wound up in one case.

somebody has to.

I'm just telling you, I'm sick and tired
of looking at this picture of this

little girl.

Ah, she's the best daughter a man ever
had.

I raised her rough, I admit it.

But any time I called on her, she was
always right there, ready to go.

Not like her big sister.

She was always playing with dolls or
hanging around her mother.

But Faith, she could drive a bulldozer
when she was 11 years old.

In fact, ride the horse like an Apache
Indian.

She had to.

She could run this outfit.

Then what'll I do?

Maybe better.

Eli. Yes, sir.

Go find Wade and tell him to bring out
some more pipe.

And you tell him I said he ain't got the
sense of a jackass. Sure thing, Walter.

Well, anything else you want to know?

Well, I get the impression you didn't
have too much time for Faith's husband.

He's a spineless creep.

I set him up in business, co -signed his
notes, bought him a house.

He treats my daughter like a hired hand.

So you didn't have too much problem with
him leaving, Faye? Why, hell no. It's

the best thing in the world could have
happened to her.

That raise some kind of a question in
your mind?

Listen, if I wanted to get rid of Terry
Kelsey, I'd do it.

But if faith wants Terry, faith can have
Terry.

That answer your question?

Good. Well, I got work to do.

Good morning.

Mr. Jensen, good to see you. Did you
come out to see Daddy?

Yes, ma 'am. How you doing?

Great. I'm getting ready to have lunch
with Daddy. He won't come to me, so I

have to come to him. You want to join
us?

No, ma 'am. I think Ms. Jefferson said
just about enough of me today.

I'll see you around.

I hope so.

We've got a dinner party in an hour and
your hair isn't even done. That's right.

I'm not going.

Hell, you're not. These are very
important clients. Not to me. I've been

ranch all day and I have things to do.
Your things as usual. Why can't you

up after your own damn dogs? It stinks
around here.

I'm going to close my eyes.

And when I open them, you better be
upstairs getting pretty.

I don't think you're hearing me, Terry.
I'm not going.

Don't you push me, Faith.

You're pushing me right out the door.

You got one hour.

You better be ready.

Mom, you okay?

Yeah, it's okay.

He hasn't left you. He comes and goes as
he pleases. I just, I don't get

it. Leave it alone, will you, Callie?
Why don't you talk to Madam Ursula?

Maybe she could help.

You and those fortune tellers. Remember
I went to see her. She said I was going

to fall in love with a dark -haired
stranger who'd sweep me off my feet.

What?

How are you going to find him unless you
get rid of that flaky husband of yours?

I remember my mother wanted to leave my
father when I was 12, but he wouldn't

let her.

Good afternoon, ladies.

You all right?

Terry swore there'd never be another
woman.

I thought what happened to Stacy would
stop him.

Honestly, you have worse taste in men
than I do.

Terry and Market?

I mean, what do you see in that guy? He
is so phony.

Mark and I have a lot in common.

Yeah, right, like money.

You've got it, and he wants it.

Mark understands me.

He doesn't care what I've done.

Hi, Terry, it's me.

I left the Randall bit on your desk. Did
you look at it?

Yeah, I saw it. It's fine.

Honey, last night you never wanted to
see me again.

I'm sorry.

It's just that I never know if you're
coming home or not these days.

I get real lonely.

Besides, it's just a little favor.

What?

Sally and I want to go to the lake
tomorrow. Could you bring the boat down

around 3 o 'clock?

Sally is going water skiing.

Aren't you afraid she might break a
nail?

Be nice, hon.

I'll fix dinner.

And dessert.

Okay.

I'll see you later.

Well, first time I've been here in
months.

Old Walter gets himself in a real snit
if I take the boat out myself.

Faith.

She never wants to do anything but hang
out with him. Yeah.

Whoo!

That's a hot one.

I wonder if he'll be all right.

Hey, Ma, I thought you and Sally were
going to the lake.

I'll bet you did. So you snuck over and
got the present Grandpa had for you.

Yeah.

Do you want to try it?

You bet.

Man, she is something else.

That she is.

What do you need boy?

Grace, answer the phone.

Faith?

Faith, it's Terry. He says somebody
tried to kill him.

That was Terry Kelsey.

Somebody at Canyon Lake just tried to
kill him with a shotgun.

Don't tell me. The shot bounced off his
hair and killed 15 innocent people.

He's down at County Hospital.

I think my leg was broke instead of my
arm.

It's policy.

We don't want you falling over and suing
us.

Bob, you never know what to expect, do
you?

No, ma 'am, I guess you don't.

Bob, you're going with us.

Tara, are you all right? Yeah, I just
got real lucky. I just want to go home.

Are you sure you're all right? I said
so, didn't I?

We park right around the corner.

Faith?

Come on.

Just a minute.

Terry, I want you out.

What are you talking about?

Somebody just tried to kill you. I don't
want to be around you, and I don't want

Danny around you.

I want you out.

Perfect timing, as always.

The man responsible for trying to get me
killed just pulled out of here. Where

were you?

You don't know it was Walter Jefferson.

Look, I'll be honest with you.

I haven't been a great husband to Faith,
but her father is a seriously vicious

old man.

He's threatened me once before.

When? Oh, what does it matter when?

He's jealous because I married his
little girl.

He told me if I didn't stop cheating on
her, he'd take care of me.

So did you stop?

If it isn't him, it's Eckhart.

In revenge for Stacy leaving them.

Or maybe they got together and it's both
of them. I don't know, but I'll tell

you what.

This got my attention. Now I'm scared.

Make sure you get everything. It won't
be here tomorrow.

Neither will I.

I'm not coming back this time, Faith.

Going far, I hope?

As far away as I can get from you and
your family.

Well, I hope you'll keep the business
going.

You'll get your share when the divorce
comes through.

Don't worry.

You might have trouble getting loans at
the bank without Daddy's help.

He is on the board of directors,
remember?

You told him to shut me out.

Nobody tells my Daddy what to do.

You will never get away with this, and
neither will he. I will take you to

so fast.

Hurry up.

I've got company coming.

Goodbye, Terry.

Oh, baby.

I just laughed at something I hadn't
thought about in a long time.

Hey,

it's cool. Nothing's wrong.

Just got a bad hit, that's all.

Nasty stuff.

I'm going to have to see the man smack
his hand.

Hey, come on. Let's go dance.

You want to know a secret?

Yeah, we haven't played in ages. What?

Okay, okay. I got this meeting with the
big man. You know, the Columbia

Connection guy. Listen, listen to me.

All right, so I'm there.

We're having this slight difference of
opinion, you know? Like, I want this,

he wants that.

Oh, man, it was so scary. There were all
these dudes standing around with

gluesies, and they're glaring at me. But
I'm not letting him know what I'm

thinking, you know? So what happened?
Did you shoot them, or did they shoot

It's a secret.

You really want to know?

What I really want to know is why you
mess around with Angie's best friend,

That's none of your business.

Jesse, what's happened to you?

You think you know me, Susie, but you
don't.

Sorry it took so long to get back to
you, Terry.

Do you want to know who killed Stacy?

I'll call later.

She wrote those letters. She called once
before.

I thought she was just a crazy.

But... This time she calls back a half
an hour later.

She won't tell me her name.

She says she's using pay phones so we
can't trace the calls.

She sounds scared.

She knows who killed Stacy.

Well, who was it, Terry?

She said it was a man named Dennis
Chapman.

Who told her that?

Well, that I don't know.

Did she say anything else?

Only that she called back tonight.

I'll tell you what.

If she does, tell her to call me, all
right? Have me paged.

Tell her I'm in charge of the case, and
you think she should talk to me.

Charm her a little bit.

Jake, you think this is real?

Could be.

I want to thank you for sticking with me
on this, Mr. Kelsey.

You bet.

Dennis Chapman got 90 days in county for
assault.

No priors. He was released last week.

What do you think?

I think I'm getting kind of tired of the
roller coaster, but I get a feeling

about this one. Let's check it out. Not
tonight, pal. Not you.

You're going to a concert, remember?

My God, chamber music.

Oh, Pam, why do you get into these
things?

This is Detective Jensen. Who's this?

My name isn't important. Terry said that
you would help me. I know everything.

Now they're going to kill me. Ma 'am,
please slow down. I can't understand

Now, why don't we just take it from the
top?

What's your name?

Somebody's got to help me.

I will help you.

Why don't you and I meet someplace?

He's going to kill me.

Oh, God, what if he's listening? Ma 'am,
ma 'am, please don't hang up. Now, why

don't you and I go meet someplace, and
then you can tell me the whole story.

But will you meet with me?

Yes.

Pam looked pretty teed off.

What'd you give her for her birthday?

I gave her an antique watch.

Oh, that's nice. That's nice.

What, does she like it?

It's about after midnight. Does Lunatic
gonna show or what?

You see Crystal Ball anyplace?

What do you reckon?

Wackle, sleaze, what?

That means a dozen times. Every time I
tell you, I don't know. Half a dozen.

Detective Jensen?

Uh, this is Detective Jensen. Hey, this
is, uh, Detective Taylor.

You know, you look just like your voice.

Thank you so much for waiting.

Sorry I'm late.

Ah, it's not a problem, Miss, uh, Mrs.
Harp.

But, um, I'm divorced.

Now I live with a man named Dennis
Chapman.

Right.

The one who arranged for Stacy Eckert's
murder.

Now, I lied. I told Terry that Dennis
killed Stacy and... Not true.

But I couldn't get Terry's attention.

He's not very bright.

You know?

Of course, I guess Dennis could have
killed Stacy.

He was in Vietnam. They trained him to
kill.

I think his brain stopped growing when
he was about 18.

We have absolutely nothing in common.

He likes to hunt and fish.

Frankly, he likes to kill things.

I like classical music.

Oh, you know those BBC comedies on the
TV?

I love them.

He has no art or literature at all.

Why don't we start at the beginning of
Mrs. Carr? The beginning?

No. No, that's way too long ago.

Could we start October 12th, 1989?

The day Stacy was shot.

Mm -hmm. Exactly.

Is there an ashtray?

Dennis said that, um, they got in.

Yeah. Trying to say they were from the
phone company.

She must have been stupid.

I mean, if somebody came to my door and
they told me that they were from the

phone company, I think I would have to
see some ID.

Like, now.

You know?

He said they shoved some stuff or
something in her mouth so she wouldn't

Oh, and the kid was in the other room.
She didn't say anything, Dennis said.

Curtsy's such a liar.

Wouldn't surprise me if they made her
watch.

Why are you telling us this, Mrs. Carr?

I've told you that Dennis is going to
kill me.

I know who paid him to have Stacey
Eckard murdered.

I know who tried to have Perry killed.

Do you want me to tell you?

Yeah. Of course we would.

My sister.

And who is your sister, Mrs. Karp?

Shelly.

My name is Shelly.

Shelly.

Shelly Jefferson Karp.

My sister's name is Faith.

Faith Jefferson Kelsey.

Stacy's murder and the attempt on Terry.

Well, it wasn't just Stacy and Terry,
although they did miss with Terry.

Faith got a hit list.

Four people.

She thinks Dennis will handle it just
like he handled the others.

Hey, wait a minute, Mrs. Karp.

Shelly.

Shelly.

You're saying that your sister paid to
have Mrs. Eckert chill, then Terry

Kelsey, and you live with the man who
set it all up.

Well, how was I supposed to know?

When Dennis found out that Faith was my
sister, he wanted to marry me.

Got real persuasive. He said that a wife
can't be forced to testify against her

husband.

Nobody'd have to force me.

Oh, and the blackmail attempt a while
back?

That was him.

Who worked, too.

Wait a minute. What blackmail attempt?

Dennis was blackmailing Faith about the
murder. He wrote her a letter like it

was from the hitman.

So she called Dennis for help, which is,
of course, what he wanted her to do all

along. And why would she call Dennis?

Well, I mean, you know, he'd already set
up one murder for her.

Who else was she going to call?

Not like there's an agency out there or
something who does it for you.

Oh, thanks.

So, anyway, she's on the phone to Dennis
about the blackmail letter from the guy

who killed Stacy.

And it never occurs to her that Dennis
is the one.

Who sent it.

She offers him 15 grand in cash if he'd
take care of it. So he agreed.

He waited a while and then called her up
and told her the guy who killed Stacy

was dead.

And Faith didn't know who you were
living with.

She's your sister.

We're not exactly what you would call a
close family.

People think my parents are a wonderful
couple, but they're cruel and

vindictive. Faith just liked them.

She's always been daddy to the little
girl.

Everybody thinks she's so charming.

She's capable of anything. Do you have a
restroom?

What?

Um, yeah, of course.

Can I just get this straight in my head?
Don't let me wet my pants.

Uh, this way.

Thank you.

Marilyn, will you show Mrs. Karp to the
restroom?

So why is she here?

Kicks? Kicks? Five in the morning?

Listen, I don't think Faye's involved
with this either.

Something's here. Something's here.

What was Dennis Chapman in jail for?

Assaulting Shelly. What else?

It's not that I mind coming back, you
know. I just can't do too many all

-nighters.

I can't have Dennis think that I'm
playing around. Well, you just let us

when. Okay.

I'm sorry, there's really no polite way
of putting that.

We ran a check on you, Mrs. Karp, and to
say that you are a bad witness is an

understatement.

You mean because I was in the hospital?

That makes me a liar? No, no, of course
not.

This is the way you're going to protect
me from Dennis, right?

I mean, what kind of cop are you? Mrs.
Karp, please.

You have to do more.

It's not just that people won't want to
believe you, but you were involved.

I had nothing to do with... No, not in
the murder, but at least in the

attempt. So you have to make amends for
that.

You have to make us want to believe you.

All right.

What do I do?

I want you to wear a wire, and I want
you to meet with Faith.

Call her.

You don't know Faith.

If you're listening on the extension,
she'll know.

Shelly, call her.

It's late, you know?

I mean, I don't even know if she's
there.

There. Who could be there with her?

It's ringing.

Hi. Yes, it's Shell.

Were you in bed?

I know.

I know it's late.

Listen, I need to talk to you.

Now.

Yeah, now. I have to talk to you about
Dennis Chapman.

Do you know the Big Apple restaurant?

Okay, meet me there in 30 minutes.

She'll be there.

Here, you want some gum?

No. Good, I don't have any.

She's never gonna show.

Hey. Here comes Shelly.

Shelly's so jealous the faith is coming
out of here, she could have made the

whole thing up.

We don't even know what faith she calls.

Can you think of any reason why faith
would come if she's not involved?

Not a one.

Hello? Can you hear me?

Yes. Can you hear me?

Yes. Tell her we can hear her.

Thank you.

Hi. Thanks for coming.

You're welcome. You look terrible.

Oh, well.

Your old charming self.

What do you want?

What do you have to tell me that's so
important?

I'm living with Dennis Chapman.

Want some coffee, hon?

No, thanks.

So you're living with Dennis Chapman.
What does that have to do with me?

He told me about the job that he did for
you on the dentist's wife.

I know all about it, Faith.

And now he knows that you're my sister,
so he's threatening to kill me because I

know about the murder.

Don't be so dramatic.

He's not going to kill you.

Oh, well.

Sounds like you know him pretty well.

He's a friend.

No. No and no.

Use what you have.

But we don't have anything, Shelly.

The tape has gone to the lab. It might
be two weeks before it's clean. Even

then, it might not be enough.

That's not my problem.

I'm not going to do anything else.

You are the only one that can help. You
are the only one she trusts.

Yeah? Well, let me ask you something.

How do you think I'm going to ask for
the exact...

Same questions I asked her yesterday.
She's not stupid, you know.

Just bring them up in a different way.

You're terrified of Dennis, right? You
need her help.

You were very good before, very natural.

You can do it again. We can make the
meet easier for you, too. A more

environment, a good back story.

No. No, and that's final.

Shelly, what on earth? How long have you
been here? That pizza reeks.

A week.

I haven't left the room once.

He's gonna kill me.

I gotta keep moving. I gotta get away
from him.

She's good.

Pizza was a nice touch.

Why did you ask me here?

Because I asked you for help and you
haven't done a damn thing.

You paid Dennis to have Stacy killed.
You owe me.

I'm so dangerous. Maybe you shouldn't
talk to me like that.

Shelly, did you go to the police?

Is this a setup?

Why would I go to the police?

I'm in this as deep as you are.

I knew about the hit on Terry.

That's when Dennis found out you were my
sister.

Please, that's very funny.

You never told me, you know, why you did
it.

I mean, why am I... living like this?
What happened to you?

I guess I had enough.

What?

Of Terry playing around?

Of that bimbo calling me.

Stacy called you?

You didn't tell me that.

Night and day bragging about how much
Terry loved her and how they were going

take Danny away from me.

I was so sick of her voice I thought I'd
go crazy.

But I don't know who actually killed her
and I don't really care.

That's pretty much it.

We can get her on Terry, but not on
Stacy.

What do you want to do?

Let's bring her in for questioning, see
what she says.

I thought you'd be jumping up and down
about this fake Kelsey.

What have you been thinking about?

It's no different than any other case.

So you're going to take your own car, or
do you need me to drop you off?

Hey, pal.

I'm, um... I'm sorry.

I am, really. I'm sorry.

I just... I don't know how I missed it.

She was right under my nose the whole
time, and I missed it.

Okay. She's here.

You got it down?

We don't have all the pieces, Ron.

I could blow with her in the first ten
seconds. I ask one wrong question, it's

over.

Mr. Jensen, good to see you. Mrs.
Kelsey.

Detective Taylor, good to see you.

I was wondering if you'd mind answering
a few questions.

Oh, that does sound serious. Could I get
a cup of coffee first, please?

understand what happened. I mean, you
had three guys after him with shotguns,

and they had to be morons to have missed
Terry.

He was a sitting duck.

Well, I guess you got me.

I can't argue with a tape recording.

I should have known Shelly didn't want a
kiss in makeup.

Mrs. Kelsey.

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be used
against you in a court of law.

You have the right to talk to a lawyer
and have him present with you while you

are being questioned.

If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer,
one will be appointed to represent you

before any questioning if you wish.

You can decide at any time.

You can decide at any time to exercise
these rights and not answer any

or make any statements.

Do you understand each of these rights
as I have explained them to you?

Yes.

Having these rights in mind, do you wish
to talk to us now?

I think I already did.

Do you want to call your lawyer?

What I want is to get out of here.

You know most of it already anyway.

Stacy was calling me and Terry
threatened to take Danny away and I lost

I didn't know what to do.

I just wanted everything back to normal.

There was a man that worked for us, Pete
Kohler. He knew all kinds of odd

people.

I made up a story about a friend with an
abusive husband.

And he gave me Dennis Chapman's number.

Could we talk about this at my house?

That's very irregular, Mrs. Kelsey.

Please, I'd feel so much more
comfortable.

All right.

Thank you.

I'll tell you everything then.

But just you, all right?

Will you drive me?

I'll be right behind you.

Jay, you're sticking our necks out
pretty far on this. Look, we don't have

on Stacy yet, right?

If I take her home, I think she'll talk.
Now I've got to follow my gut on this.

Come on.

Come on in.

Have a seat.

I'll make us some coffee. You want
something to eat? No, thank you. Coffee

be great.

Where the hell have you been?

Detective Jensen, this is my friend,
Marcus Hiller.

You all right? Everything okay?

Everything's fine.

I'm going to make us some coffee. Honey,
would you call David for me?

David's my attorney.

And would you excuse us, please?

Yeah, sure.

I won't leave town, officer.

I'm sorry.

I, um... Thought I'd gone out the back
door.

Detective Jensen, you have to learn to
trust people.

Or leave the trust.

All right, Mrs. Kelsey.

You're sure that you wouldn't prefer to
wait until your attorney was available?

I told you. I trust you.

Now, where were we?

Pete Kohler gave me Dennis Chapman's
number.

But you didn't know that Dennis was
living with your sister?

Oh, no. I've seen her maybe three times
in the last two years.

Now she says Dennis wants to marry her,
so she can't testify against him.

What other reason could there be? You've
met Shelly.

But she knew what was going on.

Oh, she was in it up to her neck.

With Stacy?

No, not then.

But if those bozos Dennis hired to kill
Terry had done the job, she'd still make

a percentage of his life insurance.

That's how I was going to pay Dennis.

Shelly's jealous of me. That's why she
called you.

Though it's pretty extreme, even for
Shelly.

I know I did a terrible thing.

I can't explain how Stacy made me feel,
harassing me all the time.

I didn't know what to do.

This is Kelsey.

Faith.

Call me Faith.

Faith.

If what you're saying is true, then you
conspired to have Stacy Eckert murdered,

and you conspired to have Terry Kelsey
murdered.

Is that true?

Jay, I want to make a deal with you.

I'll give you Dennis Chapman if no
charges are filed against me.

Come on.

I'll give you everything. Names, dates,
places.

Dennis planned the murder and the
attempt on Terry. He's the one you want,

me.

Not guilty, Your Honor.

Will counsel please approach?

Dennis, look this over. Sign it if it's
accurate.

What do you make of this?

Chapman did such a good job on Stacy.

When Faith wants Terry in a pine box,
she goes to Chapman again.

Did he give her Stacy's killer?

Swears he doesn't know.

Says he gave the money to some joker
named Steve Wainwright. Wainwright took

from there.

This is crazy.

Death without it, but... You'll tell the
DA I cooperated, right?

Just like we promised.

Was anyone in Phoenix not involved in
this?

Well, I got an alibi. I don't know about
you.

Uh, you're 10 o 'clock?

Uh, Detective Jensen.

I'm Dean Everett.

The D .A. has given me the Faith Kelsey
case. Maybe you people are waiting for

Stacey Eckert to make a formal
complaint.

Uh, yeah, I'm sorry it took so long. I
read most of it this morning.

What's she like?

Faith Kelsey.

She's intelligent, classy, beautiful.

She looks at you like there's nobody
else in the room.

I used to think she was as much a victim
in this as anyone.

So what do you think now?

I think she's very dangerous and she
belongs in jail.

So why'd she do it? Was it jealousy?

Woman scorned? What?

I don't know.

Every shot I called in this case so far
has been wrong.

I do know that if Terry was going to
leave her, he was going to go when she

wanted.

Seems a lot like Daddy, huh?

So it goes, Dennis Chapman to Steve
Wainwright. You think Wainwright's the

shooter? I don't know. We're going to
pick up Wainwright this afternoon.

So tell me I'm wrong now.

We don't have the shooter. We don't have
enough to convict Faith.

A conspiracy this complicated?

No shooter, no convictions.

You Steve Wainwright?

Who are you?

Metro Police.

Yeah, I'm Steve Wainwright. So?

So you want to tell us about Dennis
Chapman?

Never heard of him.

Is that right?

You usually work for people you never
heard of?

That's stupid, Steve. Are you stupid?
Let's try again.

Chapman gave you money to murder Stacey
Eckerd. You broke into her house and you

shot her.

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

You've got a mother, Steve.

How do you think she's going to feel
with you sitting on death row?

Waiting to fry an electric chair, huh?

I'm talking to you.

Dennis, give me the money and... I'll
give it to Jesse Graham.

Here it is.

Jesse David Graham.

36, 63 Park Street.

He works at Mesa Ridge Motors.

All right, I'll take the house, you take
the car joint.

Jesse!

Couple of guys here to see you.

Jesse Graham, Detective Taylor, Metro
Police.

Mind if I ask you a couple of questions?

No, sir, not at all.

What can you tell us about Dennis
Chapman?

Never heard of him.

What about Steve Wainwright?

Pete Kohler?

No, sir, afraid not.

Jesse, line one.

Excuse me, I'll be right back.

Hello.

This is your cold -blooded killer?

Maybe.

Sure, you want it shipped or you want to
come by and pick it up?

All right, we'll see you then.

Is there anything else I can do for you?

Tell the truth.

Wainwright said he sold you drugs for
years.

No, sir. I've never done drugs.

You ever done a murder?

No, sir. I haven't.

Jesse, line four.

Hello?

Yes, ma 'am. I think we just got a
shipment in yesterday. Let me just go

for you, okay?

You know, my brother -in -law used to
work here.

Said they paid pretty good.

Pretty good benefits, too.

Well, maybe you should pick up an
application before we leave.

I told the cops I've known you my whole
life, and you wouldn't hurt a dog if it

were chewing on you.

Can we talk about something else? No.
Now, my lawyer shares his office with

ex -DA named Jack Merrick. I think you
should talk to Jack.

He's really good, and he's really cute.

David Irwin's my lawyer. He's the best
defense attorney in the state of

Yes, and you're all complaining about
how he never does anything.

Now, this guy, Jack, used to work with
your lawyer in the DA's office. Maybe if

you talk to Jack, he could give you some
pointers as to how to get your lawyer

going.

How cute did you say this guy was?

It's 10 after 12. I'm late and I'm
sorry.

Hi, I'm Jack Merrick.

I've known Sally since the year two, but
that's not what I wanted to talk to you

about.

Well, if you asked me over to talk about
your lawyer, ethically, we shouldn't

even be talking.

I won't tell.

Sally said you were with the district
attorney's office. Why did you leave?

I didn't see much point in staying.

There were two other guys with seniority
and they got all the high -profile

cases.

So you wanted to be a star, too.

Yeah, why not?

But leaving was a bad idea.

See, I wanted to be in the courtroom,
and a defense attorney's supposed to

his clients out of the courtroom.

It was a struggle till around 87, but
things have been pretty good since then.

What do you think about my lawyer,
David?

Well, company once said he perverts the
very meaning of justice, and I'm

inclined to agree.

But as a defense attorney, he is one of
the best.

Now, I have to go.

I'm a court in a little while.

Can I get this straight?

You are Angeline, you're Jesse's wife?

Uh -huh.

And you are?

Karen Blake.

I live three blocks away.

I'm Angeline's best friend. Well, after
Susan. Susan's known Andy and Jesse

forever.

And you are Susan?

Redding.

All right, okay. I think I got it now.

So did Jesse say where he was calling
from?

Uh -uh.

He didn't say.

All he said was he'd kill himself if I
didn't hand over our savings.

I told him, honey, you go right ahead.

That money's for me and the kids.

He even called Karen for money.

And what did you tell him, Karen?

I told him to get real. I don't have any
money.

I mean, he called Susan's husband, and
Jerry said no.

Right, Susan?

Uh -huh.

But he didn't say where he was calling
from.

No, sir.

Well, okay, ladies, thank you for your
time.

If Jesse does try to reach you, will you
please try and get him to call me?

If I know Jesse, he's probably in Mexico
on some beach by now.

Well, it'd be a whole lot easier on him
if he turns himself in. It's a shame he

doesn't know that.

Jesse always did like things easy.

Bitch. Go to hell.

Here you go, Daddy.

Everything's gonna be all right.

You're gonna be just fine.

Thank you, Eli.

Mom, what'd the doctor say?

He'll start physical therapy soon.

Doesn't seem much point in it to me.

The doctor said he'd be up and around in
no time.

Thank you, Eli. I'll call you if we need
anything.

Yes, ma 'am. I'll be right outside.

I swear that man gets stupider every
year I know him, and that's a good 20

we're talking about.

So, what does your attorney say, besides
wanting a bigger retainer?

He tells me not to worry.

I feel so guilty about Daddy.

Why?

How are you to know he'd have a stroke
because you were arrested?

I'll go see about something to eat.

Daddy, don't you worry.

Everything's going to be fine.

That man that killed Daisy, they'll
never find him.

I paid $15 ,000 to make sure he doesn't
bother me again.

See how well you taught me?

I can take care of myself.

I'd like to get my hands on Jesse Graham
for about ten minutes. You know, Jesse

told Susan that he loves Karen, right?

All right, so imagine, if you will,
you're Jesse Graham. Now, wouldn't you

to come home and spend Christmas with
your girlfriend?

Come on, he's not that stupid.

We should watch Karen's house and see
what comes down.

We'll see Santa Claus before we see
Jesse Graham.

Fine, Ron, you tell me what to do next.

Okay, okay, I'll watch it.

Come on, this one's fine right here.
Let's go.

You're half an hour late meeting Pam.

Hey, we'll take this one.

What's the matter with you?

I was standing there for ten minutes.

I was thinking.

Then we just go.

We get on a plane. We go to Mexico,
South America, Europe.

What about Danny?

He can stay with your folks. He's 16
years old. How long are you going to

him tied to your apron strings?

As long as he wants.

Marcus, don't ever ask me to choose
between you and Danny.

What if they find out that you're here?
I mean, what if they've got the phones

tapped or something?

I'm not going to tap the phones, baby.
Come on.

Jesse, I know that you think that cops
are dumb, but they're not.

Listen, the last they heard, I was in
Idaho. Why would they come looking for

here, huh?

but I gotta see my girl, you know?

I'll stay a couple of days, and then
we'll leave. We're gonna go to Mexico to

baby.

Okay, but I gotta tell my mom.

No, you call her when we get there.

Okay.

I swear, Karen, my life only

got started the day we met.

I'm not sure it's such a good thing,
loving somebody as much as I love you.

What was that?

I didn't hear nothing.

Oh, damn it. That cop's over.

Tell him you haven't seen me, you
haven't heard from me, and don't let him

Open up, police! Third floor!

On the floor! Right now! On the floor!
Get down!

Get down!

Get down!

Get your hands behind your back, right
now!

Merry Christmas, Jaffe.

We don't know the kid's the shooter yet?

He is.

Where's Faith?

I drove by her house last night. She was
there.

Yeah?

What was she wearing?

life jesse i gotta see karen you let me
see

karen and i'll talk all right ron i'll
give her a call for you phone number

jesse i'll see you

later

Okay, Jess, talk to me.

I met this guy, Steve something.

He gave me an envelope with $1 ,500 in
it and a picture of the woman.

Her address was on the back.

It said somebody wanted her dead.

I spent some of the money on speed.

And then I got scared.

If I didn't get the job done, people
were going to come after me. So I talked

this guy, Skip.

I don't know his last name.

Lives up in big trees.

I used to buy speed from him.

And I told him I'd give him a grand if
he'd, you know, get the job done.

And he said, no problem.

So, um...

A couple days later, I met him at a bar,
and I gave him the money, and I told

Steve that everything's taken care of.

He said it was on TV. The woman was in
the hospital.

I didn't know that.

That's all.

Did he talk? Yeah, he talked. He said he
gave the money to some guy named Skip

to do the job. Oh, boy, there is no
Skip. Wait a minute. I don't know that

neither do you, so let's check it out
anyway, all right?

Why? There is no Skip.

We got better things to do. Wait, wait,
wait. We got nothing better to do.

We don't know Jeffy's lying, and we
won't know until we've established that

doesn't exist.

Now, come on. I don't need this. Will
you just go and find out if he's real or

not?

Who's this?

My name's Jesse Graham. I'm calling from
the county jail.

Yes? What does that have to do with me?

Well, everything.

I mean, I kind of figured we're
partners, you know.

No, I don't know.

The dentist's wife?

What do you want?

Well, my bail's like a million dollars.

Could you pay it for me?

I'll have to talk to my attorney.

I'll let you know.

What is it?

I need to talk to you about my case.

What about your own lawyer?

I can't tell him this.

He... I can't.

Wait a minute.

You got five bucks.

Give me five bucks.

paid for attorney -client
confidentiality.

What's the problem?

The man that the police arrested for
killing Stacey, he called me.

He wants me to post his bond.

Well, I hope you hung up on him.

No, I didn't. I was so surprised.

I mean, I thought he'd been taken care
of.

Jack, I don't know what to do.

Why don't you just tell me how I can
help you?

I want you to talk to him, but I don't
want to drag you into this.

Oh, ma 'am, I don't care what you've
done or what you haven't done.

Just tell me what it is you want me to
do and consider taking care of.

Three people called me to tell me you
had lunch with Jack Merrick today.

So why ask if you already know? You're
out on bail, for God's sake.

You know what he does?

He defends drug dealers and gets paid in
dope.

What were you doing with him? Having
lunch.

You get more than lunch with a creep
like that. You know he's connected with

Columbia drug cartel? Is that so?

I always did like people with clout.

I don't want him in this house.

It's not your house, and I don't care
what you want, Marcus.

Why don't you do us both a favor and
move out?

Maybe I'll call the DA.

And tell him what, that you lied to the
grand jury?

Listen, Faith.

Didn't your lawyer say you had to bend
over backwards to be nice to me and make

me happy? Well, you and Merrick do not
make me happy.

You got it?

You know who this is?

Yeah, that's good.

His name is Harold Stockton.

We got his picture from the
Identification Bureau.

So we did a little research, Jesse, and
it turns out that Harold Stockton was

nowhere near Phoenix the day that Stacey
Eckert was murdered.

Can I go back and think about this?

No, I want it now, Jesse. I want the
truth now, no matter what it is.

Were you in the house?

I did it.

What did you say?

I did it. I killed her.

And nobody's with me.

I set the flowers down next to the door
on the inside of the house.

And that's where I left them.

And did you see the child? Did the child
see you?

No, I never saw the child.

So is that enough?

Yeah.

Now we can get Faith to trial.

Hello?

Marcus, wake up. Danny's been in an
accident.

Marcus! Kit is always in trouble.

Would you come with me, please?

Call me if it's anything serious.

Hi, it's Faith. I'm sorry to call so
late, but there's been an accident. Can

help me?

We were racing.

Spike hit the gravel.

Are

you

Mrs. Kelsey?

Where is he?

Doctor, this is Mrs. Kelsey.

I'm very sorry, ma 'am.

We did everything we could I want to see
my son

Marcus, will you stop this? It's not
like it's going to be forever.

Look, I didn't know that Danny was going
to get killed. You could have woken me.

You didn't have to call Mary.

This has nothing to do with Jack or with
Danny. You know we haven't been getting

along since the accident.

I think it would be good for both of us
if we took a little time.

You know I don't. Oh, honey, come on.
You know me better than anybody. I just

need a little time.

I've gotten you an apartment. I've paid
it up for three months. I've decorated

it the way you like, and I'll keep
sending money.

But let's not argue anymore.

If you care about me at all, you'll give
me this time.

The house is too quiet. John's in L .A.
with his mom.

What happened?

Well, I drank is what happened.

I drank a lot.

I wasn't what you call a pleasant drunk.

Now I don't drink.

I want to show you something.

I don't drink anymore, but I am still an
addict.

See, I do this a lot.

It's cocaine.

Jack, I'm in no position to make
judgments about what you do.

Faith? Faith?

I miss you, baby.

I want to come back. Faith!

Marcus?

What are you doing here at two in the
morning?

I want to come back, baby.

I want you back.

Marcus, I don't want you here.

to the DA and I'm going to tell him you
threatened to kill me if I told the

truth. Hey, hey.

Come on. I know everything. Everything.

I'm going to kill him. I'm going to kill
him.

If you ever, I mean ever, do anything to
hurt her, I'll find you and I'll kill

you.

Okay, I know this is none of my
business, but you and Pam are friends of

And you're spending a lot of time
following Faith Kelsey around.

It's an old police procedure.

It's called surveillance.

I'm surprised you haven't heard of it.

You're parked at the end of her
driveway, counting her damn lovers as

leave, Jay. Don't you think that's going
a little far? Far as surveillance, it

isn't even official.

What are you saying?

I'm saying you've got a thing for this
woman, and you're whistling Dixie, man.

you for your concern.

Maybe you're right.

Cashier's checking my name, please.

$7 ,500 for you and a cashier's check
for me.

Thank you.

So all the work to find Skip, Jesse's
confession, what's it for? The judge had

point, Jay. The two defenses could
conflict.

So he ruled to try Jesse and Faith
separately and her attorney asked for a

continuance so he can do his preparation
again.

Look, if we can avoid a mistrial, I
don't care if this takes all year.

Mistrial? When are we going to have the
trial?

I mean, we're going to be on Social
Security before this case is over. If

was going to run, don't you think she'd
have gone by now?

Dean, her son is dead. He was the one
reason she didn't take off before.

Okay, so we file a motion to revoke her
bond, and that way she's in jail until

the case comes to court. And the minute
she hears about it, she takes off.

No! Because we asked the court for a
hearing.

Without specifying what it's for.

And we can do that.

I wouldn't recommend trying it all the
time, but what the hell?

Then how long is that going to take?
I'll talk to Judge Moore tonight.

All right, yeah, let's go for it.

You are incredible.

I don't want you to go.

I'll be back in an hour.

Where are you going?

I told you.

The client owes me money.

He's paying me 20 grand in cash plus a
half a kilo of coke.

Now, my deal is to sell the coke for the
rest of the money.

I don't like it, but there you go.

Sounds dull.

Stay with me. I'll make it worth your
while.

Hold that thought. I'll be right back.

Where's the money?

Freeze, D .E .A. Jackson Merrick, you're
under arrest.

Bond is set at $50 ,000, Mr. Merrick.

I'm fed up. One of my clients made a
deal with the DEA.

What are you going to do?

I don't know. They haven't even set a
trial date yet.

We're quite a pair, aren't we?

Is there any way they can revoke my
bond?

Of course there is.

Everett's pushing for a trial date. He
wants you in jail now.

That's what I was afraid of.

My lawyer called today. There's another
hearing on Monday.

I thought they'd make a deal for me.

Deal? I can make a deal for you.

Darling, you're being charged with
conspiracy to commit murder.

Prosecutors go for the death penalty.
Didn't you know that?

I'm getting out.

I had a feeling you were thinking about
it.

Trouble is, I don't know where to start.
Do you have any ideas?

North? Canada?

Lose yourself for a while, get some
phony papers, light out for Europe or

America. Listen to you, big -time drug
lawyer.

Do you have any names I can call for the
phony papers?

What'd you do, check me out with the
DEA?

Running's risky. It's got to be done
right.

Well, I won't go to jail. I can't.

Can't say I'm overwhelmed by the thought
of it, either.

Worse than jail is the idea of losing
you.

When do we leave?

Well, you shouldn't do that. What about
your son?

I'm not in love with him.

You'd do that for me?

Can't think anyone else I'd rather run
away with.

But I don't want to horn in on your
action.

So if you want to go alone... You idiot.

There's no one in the world I'd rather
be with than you.

Come on, Eli. What's a little drive up
to Salt Lake City?

I'd take you to Timbuktu if you asked
me.

We've known each other since we were
kids. We always help each other out.

You want me to drive a rented car up to
Salt Lake City and then back here?

Why? So we won't have to leave the car
up there and nobody will know where

gone.

Well, when are you coming back?

I'm not.

I'm not either.

i don't know if you do this eli i'll
forget about the money you owe me you

one good turn think about it

Okay, Eli, run it by me again.

I went to Vegas, took in a show, won
some money. I haven't seen you in weeks,

and I haven't heard from you.

That's perfect.

Thanks very much.

Hey, Jack, you look after her now, you
hear?

She's crazy, but we love her.

Take care, Eli.

Okay, so long.

What, huh?

Citizenship? U .S. Both.

Purpose in visiting Canada?

On vacation.

Carrying any firearms?

No, sir.

How long are you planning to stay?

A couple of weeks, thinking about going
up to Banff or Lake Louise.

Canada's real pretty this time of year.
You have a real nice day.

And welcome to Canada.

We gotta get up.

Get on the road.

Uh -huh.

Okay, I'll get up.

You want some coffee?

Mm -hmm.

Damn, your body should be illegal.

It is illegal.

So when do we get the new passports and
stuff?

What? You said we should lie low for a
while and get a new passport.

Who do we call?

Got me.

You said you had friends who could help
us.

Well, darling, you misunderstood.

I never said I had friends here. What I
said was a general comment about what

people do when they're on the run.

You must have connections. I know you
do.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about the drug cartel.

Your connections to the drug cartel.
Don't lie to me. Everybody in Phoenix

knows. Well, everybody in Phoenix is
wrong.

I would never lie to you.

Ever.

I feel like I let you down.

It's my own fault.

I should have been more clear about what
you said.

You honestly thought that I could
whittle us up a weird jet or something

we'd be on our way to Rio?

Something like that.

Well, I wish I could get us both out of
here right now, but I can't.

What I can do is get us to Calgary on a
jet plane to someplace.

Someplace warm.

The DEA has your passport.

How are you going to leave the country?

I got us to Canada, didn't I?

Don't worry about it. I'll report it
stolen in Calgary and they'll give me a

one. The great thing about bureaucracy
is no one ever checks with anybody else.

What did you get out of Eli?

He said he left Faith and Merrick at a
motel in Pocatello on Saturday. Then he

drove the rental car back to Phoenix,
which means they're going to need

transportation.

Trains, buses, planes.

They might even buy a car, which
means... The Department of Motor

Montana, Idaho, Wyoming.

Okay, and listen, contact the Border
Patrol, okay? Because if they get into

Canada, we lose them to the feds and the
mountains.

All gassed up, ready to go.

Faith?

You okay?

I left $200 ,000 in Phoenix. You've got
to go get it. What? Well, how could I be

so stupid?

I left it in the closet up on the shelf.
I can't believe it. I can't believe it.

Come on, come on. I can't go back.
You'll arrest me. We'll manage on the

we've got.

Yeah, you're real happy to live on my
money, aren't you? Just like every other

man I've ever known.

Care about your money? I care about you.

Temporary Idaho registration issued in
Boise to Jack Merrick. General delivery

Pocatello, Idaho permanent papers away
collection at Department of Motor

Vehicles, Boise.

Bingo. We haven't got him yet. Listen,
Ron, call the phone company. Tell them

extend the trace area.

Then when Merrick calls for the
registration, tell the DMV to stall him,

for a couple of days. All right?

A direct flight to Acapulco. It's
perfect.

What's wrong with you, Jack? It was your
idea that we go separately.

You said it'd be safer.

By the time I get to Mexico, you'll have
your new passport and we can be

together.

Oh, and you know, we should get rid of
that car. It's ridiculous to leave it

here.

We don't have the registration papers
yet.

We'll call and get them.

What is wrong with you, Jack?

I'm not sure about any of this. I'm not
sure about Acapulco or why I'm here.

I don't know who you are.

It happened to the woman I fell in love
with.

All right, thanks.

Thanks. Good.

They called about the car registration.

Great. From where? They traced it to a
pay phone in Calgary, but supposedly

going to call tomorrow to see if the
registration papers are ready.

hopefully for more this day.

Jack, I hate to leave you here. I'll
call you the minute I get to our phone.

My darling.

Hello, this is Faith Kelsey. Has my call
gone through?

Thank you.

It's me.

I made it.

I'm in Acapulco and I'm free.

Did you get the passports?

Yeah, sure got mine.

Handsome devil by the name of David
Mitchell.

What do you mean? Where's the other one?
Mark, don't joke around now.

I called. I said I could pick it up
tomorrow.

What was the problem?

I don't know.

So Merrick got too soft on you?

I knew you'd be back, baby.

We belong together, you and me.

Look, I'll meet your flight on Friday.

But, Mark, don't forget to pick up the
money.

It's in my closet on the top shelf in a
shoebox.

If anything changes, call me here, okay?

Bye.

Mr. Merrick, I'm Detective Jay Jensen
from the Phoenix Metro Police

Would you step outside, please?

I've been expecting you.

Where's Faith Kelsey?

She's, uh... She's long gone.

Mexico, South America, Europe.

I don't know.

All right, I understand. Thank you.

It's going to sound kind of silly, but
if you find her, you know, tell her

there's no hard feelings.

I sure will, Mr. Merrick.

Oh, don't you just love this one, Faye?

Yes, I get them for your kids.

They're a little old for a piñata,
Gloria.

That's right. I always forget. You look
so young to have kids in college. How do

you do it?

Live a quiet life, I guess.

Quiet life, huh?

Traveling all over the world with that
handsome husband of yours.

An oil man.

I'm so envious I could scream.

Oh, look at those beads.

What do you think?

Oh, try the black one.

That's great taste.

That is $2, please. We are turning out
to be the best friend I ever had.

We have to keep in touch when we get
home.

Gracias.

Now, when is David coming?

On Friday.

Oh, I'm so sorry I'll miss him.

I don't want to go home.

I just can't believe it.

I mean, we stayed at the same hotel.

She seemed so nice.

Well, you're not the first person to be
taken in by her, Mrs. Marsh.

Her husband was joining her in Acapulco
this past weekend.

Husband?

He's an oil man.

Takes her all over the world. What about
him?

He doesn't exist.

What a shame.

She's in Acapulco. Maybe they'll find
her. They're wasting their time, man.

She's gone.

Say yes.

Everybody thinks we're married. Let's
just do it.

Marcus, you know I don't want to be
married.

Look, we've been together a long time,
babe. What are you saying? We should

split up now?

No. Why can't we go on like we are?

You know how I feel about you.

We're the same.

We'll always be together.

Marcus, very sweet.

And it's not like you to be so
sentimental.

And thanks.

But it's not going to happen.

Okay, I'll think about it.

I'll come up to Madrid as soon as you
find us a plane. I don't understand why

have to move. This place is great.

I'm not taking any chances. Nobody is
going to find us here.

You better hurry. You're going to miss
your plane.

I'd like to return this. Can you give me
cash?

Certainly, ma 'am.

Perhaps you'd like to look around. It
won't take a moment.

Oh, no, I am sorry, madam. Senor Healer
purchased the ring with his credit card.

He did what?

Does anybody here read Spanish?

Never mind, it's in English.

As I live and breathe. Come on, come on,
come on.

Come on.

Jay! Hey, Jay.

The feds flagged her credit card. She
was picked up yesterday in southern

on a future divorce.

Faith Kelsey, she's in jail.

Looks like they want somebody from our
department to fly over there and start

the paperwork.

Well, it's your case, Jay. You better
get on it.

And don't spend too much money.

It's on the department.

And I want receipts.

Another set for your State Department.

And one for your Ministry of Justice.

One for the local justices.

Fourth one for Interpol.

All these papers for just one woman.

Did you ever meet her?

Yeah, Francisco, I met her.

Would you like to see her before you
leave?

Jay, it's wonderful to see you.

You look tired.

It was a long flight. I'm fine.

You thought you got me, didn't you?

Up until about an hour ago.

I didn't realize you were an expert on
international law.

I spent a long time finding out which
countries won't extradite on the death

penalty. I think Bane's a good choice,
don't you?

Yes, ma 'am.

Are you angry that I fooled you?

I did fool you, didn't I?

Yes, ma 'am, you did.

And you wanted to come and take me home.

You came all this way just for me.

extradition. If I let them send me home,
would you help me?

The appointment you turned out to be.

I thought I could trust you.

But you don't have the guts to do what
you really want to do.

So get out of here.

Go on back to your pathetic little life.
Get out!
