1 Adam 12, 1 Adam 12, a 2-11 in progress. 1 Adam 12, handle code 3.

What did you bring today?

A tuna sandwich. I thought so. It smells better than yesterday's liverwurst.

What do you see how much I saved, Pete? Then you won't laugh. I'm not laughing

now. One atom, 12. One atom, 12. A 311W.

Community Beach.

Oh.

One atom, 12. Roger.

Looks like we're not going to win any popularity contests.

Why don't you tell us what happened to your bathing suit?

I'm expressing myself.

I'm a free spirit, a beautiful free spirit.

I love the sun.

That's your purse?

I suppose you're gonna bust me, huh?

Hey, what gives?

They're gonna take me in, Artie.

What's the matter? Don't you want your picture in the paper?

You a news photographer?

No, I'm her press agent.

Okay.

I'm ready.

Do you mind cooling it with a camera?

Do you have any identification in here?

Uh, Tammy Warren.

Uh, W-A-R-R-E-N.

You guys be sure and spell the name right, huh?

Shouldn't take me more than a half hour to get these negatives down to the city

desk. What's your name?

Art Phillips, but I don't want any publicity.

Miss Warren, is this your present address?

That's it.

Well, aren't you gonna arrest me?

That'll be up to the city attorney.

What do you mean?

He'll decide that after we file an application for complaint.

Here's your license.

You said I couldn't miss.

You said I'd make the front pages.

You crumb.

The only thing I'll get out of this is a bad case of sunburn.

So how much you figure you'll save by bringing your lunch?

Ten or fifteen bucks a week.

Oh, when did we ever spend that much on lunch?

Paying it adds up, especially the places you pick.

A little touch of class never hurt anybody.

Grab a ride and come back up the aisle. What do you got?

The phone was back there. It didn't look right.

Still there.

He's acting like a bookie on Derby Day.

He's ripping it off.

Hi, Elaine.

Listen, I won't be home for dinner tonight.

Yeah.

On all frequencies, standby.

One Mary One is in pursuit.

Westbound on Venice Way approaching Riviera. In pursuit of yellow dune

buggy, license 671, Ida Charles King.

One Mary One is in pursuit of a yellow dune buggy.

Westbound on Venice Way approaching Riviera.

One Mary One, what is the vehicle wanted for?

One at the speed only.

One Mary One now crossing bayside.

If dune buggy makes the beach, we'll never get him.

One Mary One.

671 Ida Charles King is a Wilshire stolen

Get

your

hands away from your body come on now where we can see him

I'll put your hands behind your head.

Get inside.

Move over.

Well, fellas, take him away.

I'll book him.

Don't we even get a thank you? After all, we caught him for you. Caught him?

I put him right in your pockets.

Look, fellas, show a little bit more appreciation.

I'll have to take my future business to Wells.

Adam 12, 1 Adam 12, see the woman, 415 phone call, 6825 Bay Ridge Road,

apartment 4.

1 Adam 12, roger.

Boy, the calls are coming today, we'll never get 7.

Well, that's just another advantage of brown bagging, Pete.

Go ahead, dig in.

No, I'll wait.

Please.

I'm Carla Rogers.

Come in, please.

I've been getting some terrible phone calls.

Was someone threatening you, Miss Rogers?

It was such a shock. I just picked up the phone and suddenly there was this

man's voice on the other end.

He was saying such terrible things.

Disgusting and obscene.

How many of these calls have you received?

Three. Two just before I called the police and one before you knocked on the

door.

Hello? Do you have any idea who it might be, Miss Rogers?

Someone who's awfully sick.

Have you reported this to the telephone company?

No, I guess I should.

Chances are they'd advise you to change your number.

Okay, I'll do that, but isn't there some way you can catch this man?

Make him stop?

Well, there is one way. It's not very pleasant, but it's about the only thing

that has any chance of working.

What is it?

The next time the man calls, make a date with him.

Not here. Arrange to meet him in some public place.

Then call this number. Ask for the investigation division.

We'll be making a report to them so that if you call, they'll stake out the

meeting.

Well...

Isn't there any other way?

There are lots of other things you can try.

Get a whistle.

If he calls again, blow it into the phone as loud as you can.

That'll give him something else to think about.

You might get somebody else to answer your calls for a while.

A service or an automatic phone answering device.

Well, I've got to do something.

The first thing you should do, Miss Rogers, is when you're dressed like

that, you should close your drapes.

You mean this leotard?

But I always wear it when I'm doing my exercises.

You think she'll set up the meeting?

I doubt it.

At least she closed the drapes.

1 Adam 12, 1 Adam 12, see the man at 390 down.

1260 East Front.

1 Adam 12, roger.

Hello, boys.

What do you got, Dave?

Oh, another one.

Getting so anybody can wander in these days.

Staggers in, loaded to the gunnels, orders a bowl of chili, and then passes

out before he can eat it.

Hey, how about a bite to eat?

Oh, thank you, Dave. Not right now.

I could fix you up a chili dog or a cheeseburger in no time.

Okay, old-timer, let's go.

Oh, he's out like a light.

Come on, wake up.

He's dead.

Dave, do you know him?

Just another bottle hound.

Better call the coroner.

Did I use your phone?

Yeah.

Is this going to take long?

No.

What's your last name, Dave?

Carson.

Look, how long is this going to take?

Just a few minutes.

We have a DB at 1260 East Front Street.

Maybe we could haul him out back.

A thing like this ain't good for business.

We'll leave him where he is.

How long ago did he come in?

I don't know.

An hour, maybe.

DB at 1260 East Front Street.

Corner's been notified.

Thank you.

Look, I don't want him in here.

Detectives in the corner will be here in just a few minutes, Dave. Look, I didn't

ask the bum to conk out here.

I got cash customers coming in. This is the height of my business hour.

You know, a place like Dave's is a good reason for brown bagging it.

You want to try for seven now? No.

Fact is, I lost my appetite.

One atom, 12 clear.

One atom, 12 clear.

There's a pumpkin back there in the alley.

A pumpkin?

Yeah, hurry up, will you?

Is that the pumpkin?

It looks like the same one.

Do you want me to call in and report a 10-mile-an-hour pursuit?

As soon as we get to the next cross street, I'll pull alongside.

Hey, I got an idea.

Why don't I jump out and go in foot pursuit?

Why don't you just stay where you are?

Come on, you're not going to try another end run now, are you? I think it's time

to punt.

Need some help, officers?

You fellas take over from here. I've already booked three pumpkins this week.

You know, Deacon, you've turned into a real ball of fire since they took your

training wheels off.

Step up on the curb.

I heard your siren. It scared me half to death. I knew I should stop, but not in

the alley.

Is this your pumpkin?

I operate the Peter Pumpkin Eater Day Nursery. I was just taking this

playhouse home while the schoolyard is being resurfaced.

Do you want me to take it back?

No, no, don't do that.

When you do, for safety's sake, it'd be a good idea to put it on a trailer.

Oh, yes, all right, fine, sure.

May I see your driver's license, please?

Well, would you take it out of the wallet?

Say, uh, while you fellas are here, would you mind doing me a favor?

Would you help me push the pumpkin up into my driveway?

Don't feel bad, Pete. It was a fair chase and you lost. It could have

happened anyway. Before you start on me, just think what it's going to be like at

the station when Deacon gets back there with his caper. 1 Adam 12, an ADW in

progress.

6825 Bay Ridge Road.

Code 3.

1 Adam 12, roger.

It's Carla Rogers, Billy.

It's horrible.

All that screaming. Calm down, ma'am. It was quiet.

Just Carla's record player.

And then this terrible crashing. Sounded like all the dishes were being smashed

or something.

She screamed over and over.

And then it was very quiet.

My son pounded on the door, and I told him to stay away, not to get involved.

Where is he now?

He's out in back, watching the rear engines.

Anybody see the man?

No. Let's go. I'll take the back.

My son's out back. Nobody got past him.

Kick it.

Jim!

Take it easy, Miss Rogers. What happened?

It's Officer Reed, 1 Adam 12th.

We need an ambulance and a backup unit at 6824 Bay Ridge Road.

We have an ADW victim and a suspect still on the premises.

Right.

I just saw him. He ran upstairs.

He tried to sneak out the back and I yelled at him. You describe him?

Sure. He's got on a jumpsuit, sort of blue color, like the repairmen wear.

That's fine.

She's hurt bad, huh?

Listen, we'll take care of this. Why don't you wait downstairs?

Yeah, sure.

Just lie still. The doctor will be here in a few minutes.

Don't try to move.

You understand?

Yes.

Adam 37's got the outside covered. What do you got, Pete? ADW suspect in a blue

repairman's outfit. You guys check the second floor. Read and I'll take the

third and the roof.

Right.

Thank you.

Leave me alone.

Stay away from me.

Don't touch me.

I'm away from the edge.

It's all her fault.

She wanted me to see. She kept walking around in front of the window with that

thing.

If she'd have just talked to me.

I tried to call her on the phone, but she kept hanging up on me.

Sure, we understand.

What's your name?

My name?

Ted Hunter.

She's... It's all her fault!

You're right, Ted. It was her fault.

What?

There's certain girls like that.

They get their kicks out of turning a guy on. Any guy.

No, no, no!

Come on, Ted. Wise up.

We see girls like that every day. The streets are full of them.

No!

No!

No! Take that back!

You take that back!

No!

All I want to do is talk to her.

The ambulance driver says she's more bruised and frightened than her. She's

going to be all right.

He said it all started with watching her do her exercise by the window. He

probably never realized his last look at that window would be from the backseat

of a police car.

What do you got?

Another advantage of eating in restaurants.

Suspects don't sit on your lunch.

My God.
