MAN: What is your name?

JAIME: Jaime SOMMERS.

What is bionic?

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

Callahan an informer?

Oscar, what are you gonna do to her?

The whole thing is crazy. But one thing I know, I gotta get her out of here.

Cause I'm just a little, lousy, mousy secretary to you.

I'm a sidekick for you to step on.

Antonio, only a handful of men know about this.

I've been very careful.

(GUNSHOT)

Almost 8:00.

Wonder if Pineda's gonna show.

You think anything will happen this time?

Well, I've taken every precaution.

Every security measure to insure Pineda's safety.

That isn't an answer, Oscar.

It's the best one I can give, Russ.

MAN ON RADIO: We've got him. Where?

He's crossing the street heading for the rose garden.

MARK ON RADIO: Is anyone following him?

No. He's alone.

All right. We'll take it from here.

This is Oscar Goldman speaking.

I want everyone to stay right where they are

until I have an agreement with him.

He's nervous enough to think that somebody might be tailing him.

He could lead you on a wild goose chase.

And take you halfway across the city.

You just stay here until I radio you.

Do me a favor?

Keep your head down and your eyes open.

(SOFTLY) Antonio?

Antonio!

ANTONIO: You are alone, Oscar?

Yes.

You have the guarantees the identity papers with you?

They're right here.

Where are you?

Over here. In the gazebo.

Please understand, I have to be very careful.

After the last time,

Antonio, only a handful of men know about this.

I've been very careful.

I fear for my life, Oscar.

Not for me, but for my family.

I know. And this time I can virtually guarantee your safety.

Trust me.

The last few months have been very hard on me, Oscar.

That's all behind you now.

This is what you call safety?

What kind of a friend are you, Goldman? What kind of a friend?

(GUNSHOTS)

Antonio!

Now, I would say, on a scale of1 to 10, conservatively speaking,

I'd say, uh... 10.

JAIME: Ten? - Yeah.

Oh, Jaime, he is the greatest guy.

He's tall, at least for me he is.

(LAUGHS) He's dark, he's handsome, he's rich,

and...

He's a hairdresser. A hairdresser?

Yeah. He's a hairdresser.

I'm gonna have a little trouble with my mom and dad on that one,

because, well, I mean, you know what they're gonna expect.

But he's so bright and he's well rounded,

and he's got a degree in chemistry, a master's in electronics.

He's... I don't know, he's just terrific.

See, when he got out of school,

he just felt that the job market

was not gonna pay him what he felt he was worth.

Well, hairdressers were making more!

So, he took off for Europe.

He studied all that beauty school stuff over there,

and he came back here and opened up his own salon.

And now, he's making a fortune.

Yeah.

Oh, that's nice.

Yeah. I really love him.

That's nice too.

I think this is it.

I mean, the only thing he's missing is Jaime's seal of approval.

Oh, well, if he's half of what you say he is, he's already got it.

OSCAR: How would you feel if it happened to you?

Would you trust me? I wouldn't.

Callahan, come on in here.

In his own mind, he feels that he's been betrayed.

We'll be lucky if we ever see him again.

Callahan! Yes, sir.

Who did you talk to about that meeting with Pineda this morning?

Bill and Tex at Observation, and Russ.

That's all?

Yes, sir.

There's gotta be a leak somewhere.

What happened? What's going on?

Jaime, we're trying to make contact with one Antonio Pineda.

Oh, Pineda's that South American diplomat.

He disappeared last month, right?

That's right. And a close friend.

He disappeared at the height of the Embassy bribery scandal.

Now he's seeking political amnesty and criminal immunity from us.

In exchange for what?

In exchange for information that will lead

to the criminal prosecution of four South American diplomats.

(EXHALES)

Which makes him Avery unpopular man.

A lot of people would like to see him dead.

I'd say. What happened this morning?

Somebody found out about it. Again!

We nearly got killed.

Pineda thinks that I double-crossed him.

That I betrayed him, I'm sure.

(PHONE RINGING)

Oscar Goldman's office.

Yes, hold on, just a minute.

It's him.

Pineda?

Antonio?

I want to apologize for what happened this morning.

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

ANTONIO: [don't know what to think, Oscar. Whom to trust.

I'm terribly, terribly sorry about this.

We took every precaution. I just don't know what happened.

Like the first time we tried to meet.

I'm afraid so.

I need, you, Oscar, as a friend and as an ally.

Because of that, we will try once more.

Antonio, I think that's a wise decision.

Only this time, only you will know the time and the place.

OSCAR: Good.

I'm writing that information on page 400,

of the telephone book inside the telephone booth

at the corner of Delaware and Ninth Street.

Wait until 5:00 pm. to pick it up. It will be safer then.

5:00, Delaware and Ninth.

Oscar, this is our last chance.

I'll be there.

(SIGHS)

We got another chance.

Will somebody please rinse Mrs. Myers for me

before her hair turns green?

I have to call my shrink.

Oh, Jenny, I'm sorry. Are you okay?

Listen, have you seen John?

Oh, he's in the Gold Key. Okay. Thank you.

What's the Gold Key?

Oh, it's the place where he does all the big wigs personally.

Hope he can fit me in now,

'cause lunch time is such a crazy time of day around here.

Certainly is.

Oh, excuse us. Excuse us.

John... John, I have a problem.

I've asked her three or four times and I...

There he is. There he is.

Which one is he? What do you think?

Which one is he? The one on the left.

He's cute. Yeah.

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

JOHN: What's your problem?

I cannot possibly cut Helen Wright's hair,

while Cindy is giving her a pedicure.

Why not?

Well, it's obscene.

I don't understand, Benny.

Well, it's obscene because you can't work at somebody's head

while somebody else is working at their feet.

Yes. Okay, I'll remember that.

Look, tell Cindy she can finish while Mrs. Myers is drying, okay?

Thank you. You're a prince.

Hello, ladies. Everything all right?

John? John... Hi.

Hey there, big C.

How was your day, so far?

Oh, fine. My feet haven't touched the ground.

I can attest to that.

Oh, John, I want you to meet my best friend, Jaime SOMMERS.

We work together.

Hi. Hi.

Would you excuse us for a second?

Sure.

I've got it. What?

The present I told you about. Let's see.

Okay. Here it is. You like it?

Oh, John. It's beautiful. Pretty?

Can you hold this? Okay.

Belonged to my grandmother.

I was gonna give it to you tomorrow night, but I couldn't wait.

Thank you.

Jaime, look what I got.

Oh, it's beautiful. Isn't it?

Yeah.

Thank you.

You have a very busy place here.

Yeah, well, it's, uh, it's getting there.

Someday I'd like to have every congresswoman,

senator's wife, and even the First Lady coming here.

You're also very ambitious.

He's smart enough to do it too,

if he doesn't blow it with us little guys first.

Hey, listen, kid... Yeah?

How 'bout awash and set?

I mean, I can really use it. Look at this thing.

For you, my love, the world.

How 'bout you, Jaime? You wanna get done, too?

Oh, no, thanks.

You sure?

Yeah, but I'll take a rain check.

Okay, you got it. Why don't you have a seat

while I take big C into my laboratory and make her gorgeous, hmm?

Certainly.

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

WOMAN: Somebody take - Mrs. Walker, please.

How're you doing? Hi. Fine. Where's Callahan?

Oh, she's under the dryer, singing away.

She's singing?

Always. She hates the sound of the machine.

What is she singing?

I don't know. She's got a terrible voice.

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

CALLAHAN: Yes. Mr. Pineda called him this morning.

MAN: What did he say?

That he wanted to meet him today.

Where?

At Ninth and Delaware at 5:00.

(PHONE RINGING)

CALLAHAN: Oscar Goldman's office.

I'm sorry, he doesn't want to be disturbed.

Okay.

Thank you. I'll tell him you called.

Hi, Callahan. Hi.

Uh, here's the research stuff you ordered on that guy from South America.

Yeah. Right. Thank you. Pineda.

Yeah, he's been waiting for this thing all week.

You want me to sign that thing?

Okay.

I don't know, he...

He really doesn't wanna be disturbed right now,

but I think maybe I should anyway.

Oh, I don't know. Thanks, anyway.

Sure thing, gorgeous,

Why don't you give it a few years, Denny.

Yeah.

I'll see ya. Okay.

OSCAR: Callahan? - Are you sure?

JAIME: Would I be telling you this if I wasn't?

You know she's the best friend I've got.

I can't believe it.

Oh, why'd Rudy have to give me this stupid ear anyway?

What did she say?

She said that you were gonna be meeting Pineda today at 5:00 on Ninth and Delaware.

That's what she heard you say on the phone this morning.

Well, that's only part of our rendezvous plan.

She only heard my end of the conversation.

Will you have to change it?

I don't think so.

Who did she talk to?

I don't know. I couldn't recognize the voice. It was so strange. It...

Oscar, what are you gonna do to her? I feel so awful.

It's so confusing. I mean, Callahan, an informer?

It's crazy.

The whole thing is crazy. But one thing I know. I gotta get her out of here.

What are you gonna do?

Well, I'll get her some kind of a research job.

Something that'll take her out of town...

Until we have proof.

That won't be necessary.

Callahan... I heard everything you said.

Is that what you really think?

(STAMMERING) Do you really think that I'm a traitor?

Do you? Because if you do...

I want to save you the time and money

for sending me on a research trip.

I quit.

Excuse me.

Callahan?

Leave me alone.

I just want to talk to you for a minute. Okay?

There is nothing... No, there's nothing to talk about.

I think there is.

No... Just get out!

No!

Now look, I don't know why you're doing this, who you're involved with,

I don't know what you're doing.

All I know is it makes me sick, I'm the one that had to find out.

I'm sorry it was me.

Find out what, Jaime? Oh, please.

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

Stop playing with me.

I'm not! I didn't tell anybody anything.

Look...

I don't know why you're saying these things about me.

I don't know what good it's gonna do you.

But right now I want you to turn around and walk out that door.

'Cause I don't care if I ever see you again.

You...

(CLICKS TONGUE)

HAIRDRESSER: Ah, John. - What do you think?

JOHN: Well, the color's lovely.

Do you really think so?

Sure, the cut is terrific.

That's perfect. Just perfect.

Jaime! Couldn't live without me, huh?

What's it been? All of an hour and a half?

I thought maybe I'd take you up on your offer. If it's all right?

What, bears live in the woods? Sure, come on.

I, uh, understand Callahan quit.

Yes, she did. Did she call you?

Mmm-hmm. A few minutes ago.

Uh, was really broken up.

Yeah, I know.

Thank you.

Oh, this is where you did Callahan this morning, huh?

One and the same. Well, what do you think?

Nice.

A little bit of heaven Yes.

Cutting room is back here.

Why don't you just have a seat and, uh...

I'll be with you in a couple of minutes.

All right.

Would you like a drink?

No. Thank you, I'm fine.

Okay.

(DOOR CLOSES)

There's gotta be something in here.

"Override"? On a hair dryer?

JOHN: Do you see anything interesting?

Oh, no.

Uh, wires, things like that.

In the cabinet is some stereo equipment.

Stereo equipment. That's what they are.

Yes, uh, pencils and invoices are in the desk.

Uh, on the patio are some potted plants. Would you like the tour?

No, thank you.

Are you sure you have time for a shampoo?

Oh, yeah.

Well, okay. Then let's get at it.

Okay.

Okay.

(CLEARING THROAT)

How's the temperature, Jaime?

Fine.

Tell me, why did Callahan quit anyway?

I'm not sure about that.

Well, she said it was something to do with, uh, security.

That, uh, they thought she was a leak.

You don't know about that, huh?

Well, they've been having some problems with information getting out.

And things like that.

And I guess Oscar, uh, Mr. Goldman figured it was Callahan.

Very interesting.

Whoa, take it easy, okay?

Oh, sorry, Jaime. Sorry.

Yeah.

Goldman accused her? Callahan said it was you.

She did?

Yeah, she said that you told Goldman that, uh,

she'd been talking to someone here in the salon this morning.

(SIGHING) Well, I thought I did, you know.

I feel so awful about it. I...

Yeah, well, Callahan's my best friend

and she's the last person in the world...

How do you feel, Jaime?

I feel great.

Good. Now I think you're ready for my dryer.

Okay.

JOHN ON TAPE: What is your name?

Jaime SOMMERS.

Where do you work?

O.S.I.

What do you do?

(SIGHING) I'm a schoolteacher. And a special agent.

What kind of a special agent?

JAIME: A bionic one.

What is bionic? What do you do?

Uh...

Uh, I have to show you.

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

(METAL CREAKING)

That's very, very good, Jaime.

Thank you.

I'd like to come back to the bionics at another time, Jaime.

First, I'd like to ask you about Antonio Pineda.

When Goldman found out about Callahan, did he change the plans?

Uh, no. Callahan didn't know about all of it.

Do you?

Sure. I listened to his phone call.

Tell me about it.

Uh, Oscar was supposed to pick up Pineda's instructions

from a phone booth on Ninth and Delaware at 5:00.

Where will the instructions be?

Page 400 in the phone book.

Thank you, Jaime.

JAIME: You're welcome.

JOHN ON TAPE: You will return once a week

for one of these special shampoos and sets.

You will tell people it's the best salon in Washington.

At the sound of the tone,

you will forget this session and begin to wake up slowly.

In three minutes, you will be totally alert and feel better than you have felt in years.

(BEEPING)

Hi.

How do you feel?

(SIGHS)

WOMAN: Can somebody sweep up over here, please?

(PEOPLE CHATTERING)

Uh, hold this for a second. All right?

Hello. Hi, Benny. Can I see John?

Yes. He's back in the Gold Key.

Thank you.

JOHN: All right. - What do you think?

Oh, my word, it's fantastic.

(GIGGLES)

John, I haven't felt this good or looked this good in years.

(CHUCKLES) I don't believe that, Jaime. You're a beautiful woman.

John, I hate to barge in on you like this...

Jaime.

Hey, big C.

You just can't do enough for me, huh?

Callahan! Let her go.

(DOOR CLOSING)

Callahan!

(DOOR BANGING)

Callahan...

Callahan, I don't know what you think we were doing in there.

I don't need to think. I know.

John means nothing to me.

Then why are you trying to take him away from me?

I'm not. Yes, you are.

Is it because you can't stand to see something good happen to somebody else?

Oh, come on, you know me better than that.

No, no. I don't think I do, Jaime.

It's because you've always got to be on top, don't you?

Jaime SOMMERS.

You're tall and you're beautiful.

And you go exciting places, and you do exciting things.

You can't stand to see somebody else have their moment in the sun.

That isn't true! Now, come on!

Yes, it is. Yes, it is.

Because I'm just a little lousy, mousy secretary to you.

I'm a sidekick for you to step on.

Callahan, I love you. You are the best friend I've got!

Then why are you doing these things to me, Jaime?

Why?

Why did you lie to Oscar about me?

Why were you in the shop with John?

Because you...

I needed to get my hair done.

Goodbye, Jaime.

Oh, God!

That's right. Pineda's putting the information on page 400 of the phone book.

Page 400 in the telephone book at the booth at Ninth and Delaware.

I have it, thank you.

Oh, you're welcome. Oh, listen, I've got, uh, something new

I think your government might be interested in.

I've got an OS! agent with extraordinary abilities.

What kind of, uh, abilities?

Well, that's something you're gonna have to see for yourself.

Then, of course, we'll talk about money.

Of course, Mr. Bernard. Of course. Goodbye.

(PHONE RINGING)

Hello.

I've got it.

What does it say?

6:00 in the morning. - Kennedy Stadium.

Fine. But this time, no mistakes.

What's the time?

5:00. We'll leave in half an hour.

Get in touch with Jaime last night?

Yeah, she was kind of vague about the beauty salon.

Said that she wasn't feeling very well.

Callahan thing's getting to her.

JOHN: Where do you work?

JAMIE: O.S.I.

What do you do?

(SIGHING) I'm a schoolteacher. And a special agent.

What kind of special agent?

A bionic one.

What is bionic?

Uh, I have to show you.

That's very, very good, Jaime.

(GASPS)

(PHONE RINGING)

Hello?

Callahan, it's Jaime.

Oh, Jaime, why are you bothering me? Would you just go away?

Please, Callahan!

What?

Just for old times sakes, don't hang up the phone, okay?

Okay. Um...

Do you ever remember anything that goes on when John's doing your hair?

Yeah, of course I do.

How much?

I don't know. Most of the time I just fall asleep.

Right. Like yesterday?

Yeah. I think so.

Okay. Me too. Um...

What about dreams? Do you ever have any weird dreams about John?

Sometimes.

Hey... Hey, listen, Jaime, what, uh, what's all this about?

I mean, why are you dragging him into this?

Because I think he is doing more to our heads than just making them look good.

And I'm gonna go to the salon and find out.

That's a cheap shot, Jaime.

Callahan, I love you.

Yeah.

I just want to get things straightened out.

Right.

Goodbye.

Did you have a nice nap?

Mmm-hmm.

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

(LOCK CLICKS)

Well now, let's see what kind of stereo music you play here, Mister.

JOHN ON TAPE: You will return once a week

for one of these special shampoos and sets.

You will tell people it's the best salon in Washington.

At the sound of the tone, you will forget this session and begin to wake up slowly.

In three minutes you will be totally alert and feel better than you have felt in years.

(BEEPING) I feel better already.

JAIME ON TAPE: Oscar's gonna pick up Pineda's instructions in the phone booth

at Ninth and Delaware at 5:00.

Page 400 of the phone book.

Guess I'd better call Oscar.

I think you're probably too late, Jaime.

They should be leaving just about now.

Let's go.

I've seen what one of those hands can do.

So would you mind raising them both

high above your head away from everything.

You'd better do it, Jaime, because, uh,

Benny's a little bit trigger happy

and he really doesn't like cat burglars.

Especially women cat burglars.

Naughty.

Now what?

Well, now we're gonna move into the cutting room,

for a little late night shampoo.

Then I'm gonna sell you to the highest bidder.

Callahan knows where I am.

Sure.

Even if she does, she's not about to help you.

Not after what she thinks you did to her.

JAIME: You don't give her very much credit.

I never did.

Frankly, Callahan was an easy target.

She was in love with you, John.

(LAUGHING)

Do you really think I care?

Callahan was a pool of information to me.

She still is, if I can make her forget seeing us today.

She should come in very handy in throwing the O.S.I. offtrack

when you disappear.

Very slowly into the salon now...

Run, Jaime! Run!

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

(EXCLAIMS)

John? Huh?

John? Are you okay?

Yeah, I... I think so.

You sure? Yeah.

You deserved that, you filthy, lying rat.

Here, tiger. Hold this. I'm gonna call Oscar.

(PHONE RINGING)

(SIGHING) Okay. Now where is Oscar gonna meet Pineda?

Why don't you go to the phone booth, like we did?

Of course, you'd be a little late.

Of course.

John, I think you could use a shampoo, don't you?

Looks cute. Feelgood, John?

Oh, wow. Mmm.

(MICROPHONE BEEPING)

John? Yes?

JAIME: Can you hear me all right?

JOHN: Yes.

Ooh, that's weird.

Where is Oscar Goldman going to meet Pineda?

Kennedy Stadium.

What time?

6:00 am.

It's five minutes. We're close.

What's gonna happen?

A man at the press box roof is going to shoot them.

(TIRES SCREECHING) Wow! Watch it, Callahan.

(ECHOING) Antonio! Where are you?

(TIRES SCREECHING)

JAIME: Oh, that... - That was great, Callahan!

Okay.

You want me to come with you? No.

Uh, I mean, I can make better time without you.

But I need you to call an ambulance. Okay? Get the police?

Okay. Okay. Where are you going?

I'm gonna go right up there. Be careful.

I will. Thank you. Okay.

Antonio!

ANTONIO: (ECHOING) - Do you have my papers?

Right here.

It's 6:00 am. Let's get on with it.

Where are you?

ANTONIO: Tunnel 19, row 55.

Come on up.

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

JAIME: Oh, no!

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

Oscar, duck! Duck!

(GUNSHOT)

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

(YELLING)

(BIONIC POWERS ACTIVATING)

Jaime!

And this is the magic shampoo?

Well, don't... Don't smell that stuff.

Well, unless, of course, you'd like to share some secrets with us.

What's it made of?

And it penetrates deep into the pores of the skin.

That's the part I don't understand, Rudy.

Now what about his hands?

He never wore gloves when he used that stuff.

Right.

Just look at your palms.

What? One...

The pores are smaller. They're almost invisible.

Now that molecule was designed to penetrate

the large pores on the scalp

and to be filtered out by the small pores on the hand.

He was quite a chemist.

And a hairdresser, and a boyfriend, and a con artist.

Oh, this guy really had his act together, didn't he?

Yeah, but look what it got him. Twenty years in prison.

Hmm. Yeah.

What about the guy he was selling the information to?

Ambassador Juarano will be taken care of by the United States Government.

At least, that's what I'm told.

Are you doubting my word again, Antonio?

Of course not, Oscar. You have given me a new life.

A fresh start.

I sometimes wonder about the suspicious nature of man.

How he can doubt the words of his best and dearest friends.

Doubt their motives.

I guess sometimes it just happens.

Especially when your best friend

thinks that you're trying to turn 'em in or steal their boyfriend.

My word!

Oh, I don't know, Jaime.

I never should have said that stuff outside the salon.

All that stuff about you wanting to be on top.

It hurt. But that's over. Okay?

I just need to know from you that you don't resent me

for the way that I look, or for the things that I do,

'cause you're my best friend.

No, Jaime, look.

I... I hadn't been involved like that in a long time. Right?

Right. Okay.

I lost my perspective.

And when I realized that, I just... I tried to think clearly again.

I really care about you, Jaime.

And I'm sorry.

Okay. Okay?

Yeah.

Oh, listen... Listen, I forgot.

You know yesterday, when all the reporters and the police came?

Yeah? Okay.

I met this guy, you would not believe...

Oh! You would not believe...
