Excellent, Mildred. It sounds as if
Mr. Steele has everything under control.

I can't find the boss anywhere.
I've called every gin mill in Los Angeles.

That's the kind of initiative
the Remington Steele Agency is noted for.

You seem honest.

Miss Wagenbacher, the Remington Steele

this is not some pointless
little miniseries we're shooting here.

I can assure you about Mr. Steele...

55

it's that when he's working,
he's deadly serious.

You fool, Raleigh!
You headstrong fool.

The first day we worked together,
he invited me into his dressing room.

Well, I thought it was
to talk about the part...

and he was stark naked.

Perhaps for the same motive
you attributed to Heather.

I never thought either of them...

What about the food?
Was it poisoned?

319

Well, the analysis is taking
a bit longer than anticipated...

320
00:21:14,967 --> 00:21:17,731
but all the evidence points
in that direction.

However, if one of them
is trying to kill the other...

322

- A critic or two.
- What about someone who wanted to stop the commercials?

327
00:21:36,823 --> 00:21:39,291
Well, why would anyone
want to do that?

328
00:21:39,392 --> 00:21:42,054
No pun intended, but these commercials
do put food on our table.

It must've been someone in my office.

335

After all, it's customary
to give gifts to actors.

Every day since the filming started?

337
00:22:03,516 --> 00:22:08,010
No doubt this person was unaware
of Derek's predilection.

338

I'll have it stopped.
Don't give it another thought.

One thing led to another,
and I became his assistant.

Mother Trust of Mother Trust's
Frozen Sunday Dinners.

459
00:29:52,785 --> 00:29:55,515
- Her picture's on every package.
- You've been invaluable.

460
00:29:55,621 --> 00:29:58,647
- Thank you ever so much. Excuse me.
- It's quite all right.

461
00:30:00,025 --> 00:30:02,858
Excuse me, ladies.
Do forgive me, please. Thank you.

462
00:30:02,961 --> 00:30:05,759
- There you are, Doris.
- What are you-

463
00:30:05,864 --> 00:30:08,230
And you, of course,
don't need any introduction.

464
00:30:08,334 --> 00:30:12,930
I see that handsome face staring at me
every time I open my freezer.

465
00:30:13,038 --> 00:30:15,097
- Love your pot pies.
- How dare you-

466
00:30:15,207 --> 00:30:18,176
Be late? A thousand apologies,
but I just got out of court.

467
00:30:18,277 --> 00:30:21,075
Please, Doris, do sit.
Please sit down.

468
00:30:21,180 --> 00:30:23,910
Sterling Gillette of Drummond,
Brady and Sterling Gillette.

469
00:30:24,016 --> 00:30:25,984
- How do you do?
- How do you do?

470
00:30:26,085 --> 00:30:29,020
Isn't it a bit early
to bring in a lawyer, Doris?

471
00:30:29,121 --> 00:30:31,851
- He is not-
- Here in any official capacity.

472
00:30:31,957 --> 00:30:36,451
Doris just asked me to drop in and listen
to what you ladies had to say.

473
00:30:36,562 --> 00:30:40,191
- I warn you. He's-
- Oh, park it.

474
00:30:40,299 --> 00:30:44,360
You want your lawyer in on this?
It's no skin off my nose.

475
00:30:45,804 --> 00:30:48,705
As soon as those Chef Gaston
commercials bite the dust-

476
00:30:48,807 --> 00:30:50,707
Don't say any more.

477
00:30:50,809 --> 00:30:54,404
Now, Doris, we don't want Mother Trust
here to think there's any problems, do we?

478
00:30:54,513 --> 00:30:58,677
- Is there?
- Nothing we can't negotiate our way out of, eh, Doris?

479
00:30:58,784 --> 00:31:00,684
Hmm? As you were saying.

480
00:31:00,786 --> 00:31:04,950
Those commercials have flushed
my profits down the dumper.

481
00:31:05,057 --> 00:31:07,821
<i>When Doris puts an end to them,</i>
<i>I'll set her up...</i>

482
00:31:07,926 --> 00:31:10,360
in her own advertising agency.

483
00:31:10,462 --> 00:31:15,024
With Mother Trust's Frozen Sunday Dinners
as her very first client.

484
00:31:15,134 --> 00:31:18,535
It means a lot of dough all around.

485
00:31:18,637 --> 00:31:20,537
Well, Chef Gaston could sue.

486
00:31:20,639 --> 00:31:24,473
I mean, Doris here, after all, has been
contracted to produce those commercials.

487
00:31:24,576 --> 00:31:27,704
Contracts were made to be broken.

488
00:31:27,813 --> 00:31:30,281
What a healthy attitude.
[ Laughs ]

489
00:31:30,382 --> 00:31:32,907
After all, that's what keeps
us lawyers in Cadillacs.

490
00:31:33,018 --> 00:31:34,986
When we're finished with him...

491
00:31:35,087 --> 00:31:38,056
he won't have a dime to call Legal Aid.

492
00:31:38,157 --> 00:31:40,352
Would you like another?

493
00:31:40,459 --> 00:31:42,825
Five's my limit.

494
00:31:44,897 --> 00:31:47,866
Well, when you've hammered
something together...

495
00:31:49,435 --> 00:31:51,403
give me a jingle.

496
00:31:53,038 --> 00:31:57,372
So, your very own
advertising agency.

497
00:31:57,476 --> 00:32:01,276
I've earned it. I worked 20 years
to get an offer like this.

498
00:32:01,380 --> 00:32:04,645
- Were you ready to kill for it?
- I am now.

499
00:32:04,750 --> 00:32:08,618
- And I don't even have to leave this table to do it.
- Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk.

500
00:32:31,310 --> 00:32:35,007
<i>[ Heather ]</i>
<i>You know you want it. You know you need it.</i>

501
00:32:35,113 --> 00:32:37,013

502
00:32:37,115 --> 00:32:41,074

<i>Step right up and grab yourself...</i>

506
00:32:48,594 --> 00:32:50,585
<i>a handful of Ecstasy.</i>

Ecstasy Shampoo...

508
00:32:54,132 --> 00:32:57,624
to make you look the way you feel.

<i>[ Stan ]</i>
<i>And cut.!</i>

510
00:33:00,172 --> 00:33:03,107
- How was that?
- Well, you sold me.

511
00:33:03,208 --> 00:33:05,233
Oh, great.

512
00:33:05,344 --> 00:33:07,244
- Mmm.
- Oh.

00:33:07,346 --> 00:33:09,246
[ Both Laughing ]

514
00:33:10,916 --> 00:33:12,679
- Oh!
- Me too.

515
00:33:12,784 --> 00:33:16,686
I'm gonna run right out
and buy the giant family-size.

516
00:33:16,788 --> 00:33:18,756
What are you doing here?

517
00:33:18,857 --> 00:33:22,418
- I wanted another look at your costumes.
- Why?

518
00:33:22,528 --> 00:33:25,019
They disturbed me.

519
00:33:25,130 --> 00:33:27,121
Well, how-
how do you think I felt?

520
00:33:27,232 --> 00:33:30,224
No, I mean, I was disturbed
by the look of them.

521
00:33:30,335 --> 00:33:32,530
The tears were so neat.

522
00:33:32,638 --> 00:33:35,505
Every one appeared
to be right on a seam.

523
00:33:35,607 --> 00:33:39,703
A good wardrobe woman could whip those
back together in a matter of hours.

524
00:33:39,811 --> 00:33:44,407
But I kept asking myself why you'd want
to shut down the company.

525
00:33:44,516 --> 00:33:47,383
- Thanks for the answer.
- This isn't what it looks like.

526
00:33:47,486 --> 00:33:49,454
We're just fooling around,
having some fun.

527
00:33:49,555 --> 00:33:53,047
You shoot commercials all day, and then just
for fun you shoot some more at night as well?

528
00:33:53,158 --> 00:33:55,285
I was helping the kid out.

529
00:33:55,394 --> 00:33:59,455
- She's got a shot at being
the new Ecstasy Shampoo girl. - Stan.

530
00:33:59,565 --> 00:34:02,932
According to Heather's contract,
she can't do any other commercials.

531
00:34:03,035 --> 00:34:05,663
She's exclusive to Chef Gaston.

532
00:34:05,771 --> 00:34:09,036
Unless, of course, there weren't
any Chef Gaston commercials.

533
00:34:09,141 --> 00:34:11,302
That old drunk tried to kill me,
remember?

534
00:34:11,410 --> 00:34:15,369
You couldn't know Derek would come up with
that interesting bit of actor's invention.

535
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,540
You always feed him.
Isn't that right, Stan?

536
00:34:18,650 --> 00:34:21,414
Hey, don't pull me into this.
I'm just the director.

537
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,149
I do whatever the script says.
The written word is sacred to me.

538
00:34:25,257 --> 00:34:28,317
Are you going to direct Heather's
new commercials too?

539
00:34:28,427 --> 00:34:30,918
- Stan has a feature lined up.
- Heather!

540
00:34:31,029 --> 00:34:35,261
Then you're another one who wouldn't be unhappy
if these commercials were to be scrapped.

541
00:34:35,367 --> 00:34:38,097
Tell her who they're talking about
for the picture, Stan.

542
00:34:38,203 --> 00:34:40,865
Newman, Redford and Hoffman.

543
00:34:40,973 --> 00:34:43,203
Sounds like a project worth killing for.

544
00:34:43,308 --> 00:34:45,936
You better believe it.

545
00:34:46,044 --> 00:34:49,844
Uh, I didn't mean that
the way it sounded.

546
00:34:49,948 --> 00:34:52,178
Didn't you?

547
00:35:06,665 --> 00:35:08,565
- Mady.
- Hi!

548
00:35:08,667 --> 00:35:10,635
What are you doing here?

549
00:35:10,736 --> 00:35:14,035
I went to get some coffee
in that machine near the dubbing room.

550
00:35:14,139 --> 00:35:16,437
Oh, I didn't see any food in there.

551
00:35:16,541 --> 00:35:18,702
You just lending moral support?

552
00:35:18,810 --> 00:35:21,574
They don't know I'm here.
I just thought I'd surprise Stan.

553
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,308
Oh. You know,
I don't think that's a very good idea...

554
00:35:24,416 --> 00:35:27,283
because they're sort of involved in there
in- in the commercial and stuff.

555
00:35:27,386 --> 00:35:29,854
Why don't you show me
where the coffee is, huh?

556
00:35:29,955 --> 00:35:31,946
You don't have to protect me,
Miss Holt.

557
00:35:33,659 --> 00:35:36,355
I know all about Stan and Heather...

558
00:35:36,461 --> 00:35:38,429
and the big brass bed.

559
00:35:40,799 --> 00:35:42,767
But, believe me...

560
00:35:42,868 --> 00:35:47,430
as far as Stan is concerned,
it's just part of the business.

561
00:35:50,275 --> 00:35:53,244
Just like having lunch
at the Polo Lounge...

562
00:35:53,345 --> 00:35:56,178
or taking an ad out in <i>Variety.</i>

563
00:35:58,483 --> 00:36:03,182
Well, that's a unique way
of looking at it, Mady.

564
00:36:05,957 --> 00:36:09,017
Well, we certainly have
a full complement of suspects.

565
00:36:09,127 --> 00:36:11,493
Mmm. Your taco's getting cold.

566
00:36:11,596 --> 00:36:13,826
Oh, I'm not hungry.

567
00:36:13,932 --> 00:36:17,026
Our esteemed client, Miss Wagenbacher,
wants the commercials to end...

568
00:36:17,135 --> 00:36:19,865
so she can represent
Chef Gaston's archrival.

569
00:36:19,971 --> 00:36:22,337
Try a burrito.
It's actually quite tasty.

570
00:36:22,441 --> 00:36:25,239
Heather has an offer
to be spokeswoman for a shampoo.

571
00:36:25,343 --> 00:36:27,641
- Is there any more sauce?
- Oh, yeah.

572
00:36:27,746 --> 00:36:29,873
Stan wants to direct a movie.

573
00:36:29,981 --> 00:36:33,041
- And even our little Miss Moptop has a motive.
- Hmm? What's that?

574
00:36:33,151 --> 00:36:35,779
She knows about the affair
Stan is having with Heather.

575
00:36:35,887 --> 00:36:38,447
She thinks if he leaves the commercials,
he'll leave Heather too.

576
00:36:38,557 --> 00:36:41,025
Well, I'm delighted
we've crossed Derek off our list.

577
00:36:42,527 --> 00:36:45,985
You know, I actually miss him.

578
00:36:46,098 --> 00:36:48,965
I mean, doing all those scenes
from his old movies...

579
00:36:49,067 --> 00:36:51,035
none of which he can remember.

580
00:36:51,136 --> 00:36:54,105
Hmm. He's actually quite
an endearing character.

581
00:36:54,206 --> 00:36:56,606
Hmm. Yes.

582
00:36:56,708 --> 00:36:58,676
Good old endearing Derek.

583
00:36:58,777 --> 00:37:03,874
One of our more unique people
we've encountered, don't you think?

584
00:37:03,982 --> 00:37:06,017
<i>Flamboyant, charming.</i>

585
00:37:06,017 --> 00:37:08,212
<i>Flamboyant, charming.</i>

586
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,118
Wistful yet sensitive.

587
00:37:11,223 --> 00:37:13,851
Great panache, zest for life.

588
00:37:13,959 --> 00:37:16,325
But caring, very concerned.

589
00:37:16,428 --> 00:37:20,091
- Enough about Derek, all right?
- Excuse me?

590
00:37:20,198 --> 00:37:22,826
Let's just get off Derek
for a while, shall we?

591
00:37:22,934 --> 00:37:25,903
Did, uh-

592
00:37:26,004 --> 00:37:28,666
Did something happen
between you two?

593
00:37:28,774 --> 00:37:31,937
Of course not. Why do you ask?

594
00:37:32,043 --> 00:37:34,841
Because every time I mention his name,
you begin wolfing down food.

595
00:37:36,815 --> 00:37:38,942
- I'm not hungry.
- Precisely.

596
00:37:41,686 --> 00:37:45,782
- It's nothing important.
- Then you won't mind sharing it with me, eh?

597
00:37:45,891 --> 00:37:49,793
- It was a little misunderstanding.
- Mm-hmm.

598
00:37:49,895 --> 00:37:52,557
Ah, hell. He made a pass at me.

599
00:37:52,664 --> 00:37:54,393
Derek?

600
00:37:54,499 --> 00:37:56,967
It wasn't anything I couldn't handle.

601
00:37:57,068 --> 00:37:59,195
Actually, I felt sorry for him, in a way.

602
00:37:59,304 --> 00:38:03,035
He was so transparent in his attempt
and so childlike in his guilt.

603
00:38:03,141 --> 00:38:05,803
- What kind of pass?
- What sort of passes are there?

604
00:38:05,911 --> 00:38:08,243
- I mean, verbal, physical?
- <i>Both.</i>

605
00:38:08,346 --> 00:38:11,713
- How physical?
- I don't think this is water that we should wade into here.

606
00:38:11,817 --> 00:38:14,285
You're the one who brought this up.

607
00:38:14,386 --> 00:38:16,445
<i>Why did you mention it</i>
<i>in the first place?</i>

608
