Next on Vegas, a runaway pregnant

teenager is a target for killers.

Where's my daughter? Couldn't you find

my daughter, Mr. Tanner?

>> Don't come any closer, mister. I know

how to shoot, and I will. I mean it.

>> This one's special.

>> Why? She's pregnant.

I hate to think about her having her

baby in the streets.

I hate it when this happens. Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Heat up

Done by the pool. Let's grab her now.

number is 45.

>> Can we get you anything else? Pickles

and mustard maybe.

>> No thanks. I just lost my appetite.

>> Are you here with your parents?

>> Yeah, they're um right over there.

>> Good. Let's go talk to them.

>> 12. Number 12.

>> I think I think they stepped out for a

minute.

>> Okay. Hotel security. No minors allowed

in the casino.

>> Okay. You want me out of here then?

Here. You finish it. I hate mayonnaise.

Hey, you come back here.

Heat. Heat.

Put it away, man. We need her alive.

Heat. Heat.

Telephone call Mr. Tanner. Mr. Dan

Tanner.

>> I arranged that to uh break your

concentration.

>> Tana.

>> Hi. Who's winning?

>> Well, if you mean tennis, Felana's

winning uh three games at two. I'm

having a little trouble keeping my eye

on the ball.

>> There's a man that's coming down to the

court and he says he needs your help

urgently. It's always urgent, right?

>> Well, you need work urgently, so it's a

natural.

>> Okay. What's Mr. Urgenty's other name?

>> Tucker. Caleb Tucker from Yellow Water

Valley, Kentucky.

>> Okay. B. Thanks.

>> Okay. My sir.

Got you just where I want you now.

Uh, Mr. Tanner,

>> you must be Mr. Tucker.

>> Yes, I am.

>> I'll be right with you.

Take a break. I'll be right back.

>> Hi. Hey. Pleasure to make you

acquaintance.

>> Nice to meet you.

>> Listen, can I buy you a drink? You look

like you're tired and I'm tuckered out.

Tell you, this Las Vegas, it's a little

bit overwhelming for a fellow just came

in from Kentucky.

>> Right this way, Mr. Tucker. That looks

like a fun game, but it's hot out there,

isn't it?

>> Well, you do sweat a little bit.

>> I think I'm going to leave that with

you, younger fella.

>> What would you like?

>> A beer, please.

>> One beer and a house and water, please.

So, what can I do for you, Mr. Duck?

>> It's like this, uh, I've lost someone,

someone I love very much. I have reason

to believe that person is here in Las

Vegas.

>> Let's go.

>> All right.

I talked to your police department, but

they can't seem to give me the help I

need. And your name came up as the best

private detective in the city.

>> So, uh,

this person when you lost, is it a man

or a woman?

>> A woman. Good lord. She's only a kid.

>> Your daughter?

>> My only child, Ally. Well, now that you

mention it, I I guess you're right.

She's woman enough. I guess she's going

to have a baby, right? Soon by my

reckoning,

Mr. Tucker, pardon me for being so

blunt, but uh sometimes people get lost

because they want to be lost. Could that

be the case with Ally?

>> Yes, she doesn't care whether she ever

sees me again. I don't blame her.

She's

Oh, damn nation. I I've been a fool, Mr.

Tanner, for a long time. A

sanctimonious,

pigheaded, prideful damn fool.

>> What makes you think that Alli's here in

Las Vegas?

>> That is This bus depot clerk remember

selling her a ticket, so I caught the

next plane. Allie's not very strong, Mr.

Tana. She was always small for her age,

and she she's what you'd call a finicky

eater. She She won't eat meat. She just

lacks natural foods and health things

like that. You know, Lord knows what

she's living on now.

Since Allie's mom died, I've kept her

close, but I never paid her any real

mind, you know. Run horse farms with a

lot of hard work.

>> What can you tell me about the father of

Allie's baby,

>> Tom? Well, he's a good kid. He's

He and Ally, they grew up together

really like brother and sister. At least

so I thought.

>> When you found out that you were wrong

about that, what did you do?

>> I went crazy.

Tom was babbling something about

marrying Ally. I took my shotgun. I

said, "I'm going to blow you in half,

boy.

You show your face around here again,

I'll blow you in half." They snuck

around. They'd see each other as much as

they could, but the last time I caught

him, Tom took off like a turpentine cat.

And couple of weeks later, Ally left,

too. Note said she was going to find

Tommy and have her baby. So, you think

Tommy and Ally are here in Las Vegas

together?

>> I don't know. I pray they are, and he's

taking care of her. I got a lot of

making up to do, Mr. T. You got to find

it for me. I don't care what the fee is,

>> Mr. Tucker. Normally the fee is uh $200

a day plus expenses, but $200 is all

right. I thank you for your kindness.

Okay.

>> One other thing. Would you happen to

have a picture of Alli?

>> Yes, sir.

>> Yes, sir. I brought you one.

>> Any sign of her?

>> No.

>> Well, Papa's arrived and you know who

he's talking to. Dantana.

>> That's Dantana, the private detective.

>> Yeah, you know the girl knows us by now,

so we can't even get near.

But Tana again, so all we got to do is

uh tail him. Kind of nice to have a

private detective working for you,

whether he knows it or not.

Heat

up

here.

Hey, not too close. That man's a pro.

>> B, listen. The bell captain of the

desert has a photograph. Have Ber pick

it up front. I need 100 copies fast.

>> 100 express service.

>> Now, when you get them, you two split

them up and make the rounds. The discos,

the cafes, the crash pass, the youth

host, the missions. That's great. I'll

use my skates.

>> I take it we're looking for a young

person,

>> right? She's a runaway and a mother to

be. If you need me, I'll be at

Lieutenant Nelson's.

>> Bye-bye.

>> Okay. Bye-bye.

>> They call me the desert flash.

>> Just don't run any red lights. Flash.

The name is Tucker. T is in Tom. U C is

in Charlie. K as in King. E R is in

Robert. Alice May, also known as Ally.

birthday 41261.

Run that through the computer every

which way and get right back to me.

>> I tried to tell your Mr. Tucker what he

was up against.

>> All he knows his department can only do

so much. So, uh, that's why he came to

me.

>> Runaways from all over the country.

Vegas draws them like moss to lights and

we don't have the authority to send them

home. Even when we pick them up, nine

chances out of 10 they burn their ID

cards and we can't contact their

parents.

>> Well, at least we know she's not in the

Morgar hospital

>> yet. But that's the last of it. First,

they're tacky clubs, the allnight

restaurants downtown,

which are recruiting centers for

prostitutes and dope peddlers.

Now, you can leave those to me cuz I

cover them every night. I appreciate it,

Dave. This one's special.

>> Why?

>> She's pregnant.

I hate to think about her having her

baby in the streets.

Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Stay with him.

>> You want to learn how to drive this

thing?

10 investigations.

>> B, what's happening?

>> Oh, I was just on my way out the door.

Bener just called from the photo labs.

The prince will be ready in about 10

minutes.

>> Oh, he's really rolling.

>> Yeah, on eight wheels. He wants me to

meet him at Silver City. Where are you

going to be?

>> I'll be at the natural child birth

clinic. I'm not sure, but I figure a

girl's a vegetarian into health food,

she just might want to have her baby by

natural methods.

>> Clever, Dan.

>> Well, it was easy. Anybody could do it,

right?

>> Goodbye.

We checked the hospitals, but we never

even thought about this place.

>> Yeah, that's why we need Tana.

>> Yes, there was a girl like that, Mr.

Tanner, but she left before I could

examine her.

>> Well, did she leave an address? Uh, make

an appointment to come back.

>> I'm afraid not. We asked her to fill out

the usual forms. She pretended to start,

but when I turned my back, she slipped

out the door. I went out after her, but

she disappeared. I can't tell you how

sorry I am.

>> Was she alone?

>> Yes, unless of course someone was

waiting outside. They often do.

>> The doctor, what did she say?

>> She asked about the Lamas classes.

Apparently, she attended classes back in

Kentucky and wanted to do a little

brushing up on her technique here. Are

you familiar with the Lamas method, Mr.

Tana?

>> No, I'm not.

>> Well, no anesthesia is used. Uh the

mother's pain is reduced uh sometimes

eliminated by the proper use of the body

muscles, concentration,

uh discipline, breathing and relaxation.

Um we have pamphlets.

>> Would you mind if I uh took one?

>> Oh, by all means,

Mr. Tana, I feel I should warn you. That

girl is undernourished and exhausted. If

she doesn't get the proper care soon,

both she and the child she's carrying

will be in serious danger.

doctor. If uh she comes back, you'll

call me.

Thank you.

>> Dana.

>> Dan. Roller King lives. We found

somebody who thinks he saw the girl

>> just a few minutes ago. Dan.

>> Yeah. She stole one of his special bean

sprout sandwiches. I have no idea why.

>> Okay, slow down you two. Where are you?

>> Listen, we're at the Silver City on the

strip. We just got the photo copies.

It's the first place we went to.

>> We think she's still here someplace.

>> Okay, sit tight. And Benzer, you call

Caleb Tucker at the DI have meetings at

the Silver City right away. I'll be

right there.

>> Yeah. Okay, fine.

Hey, not too close. Would you just be

quiet, Mr. Moto?

How you doing?

>> Okay.

How you doing?

>> Is this the guy I saw?

>> Yeah.

>> Um, Lindsay, you're awfully tall.

>> Skates.

>> Listen, this is no time to be fooling

around on roller skates.

>> You don't I'm sorry. Listen, I'm I'm

real I'm grease lightning on these

skates, but standing is hard. And the

president said conserve energy, and I'm

doing my best.

>> Just don't try to chase anybody going

upstairs. All right,

>> do that. I

hold it, Dan.

And there she is.

>> Dan, wait a second.

Look out. Oh god. I'm sorry. I'm working

on a case.

Let's go.

Get it.

Ben, you all right?

>> No. How are you? You

>> okay?

>> Yeah. Yeah. She's gone. She got away.

Cool.

I got here just as fast as I could.

Where's my daughter? Where's Ally?

What happened?

Couldn't you find my daughter, Mr.

Tanner?

Never seen him before. They didn't get

close enough for me to get a look at the

license either.

>> I don't understand what happened. What

would they want with Ally? Why would

they attack her?

>> I don't know, Mr. Tucker. But I tell you

one thing, they were pros. They knew

exactly what they were doing. They knew

exactly who they wanted.

>> I let him right to her.

>> Well, there's an APB out on the sedan.

Now, as soon as we finish here, I want

you to go downtown and get with our

sketch artist. Maybe we'll get some mug

shots or some names or something.

>> Is that enough, Mr. Tanner?

>> Well, we've started with less. We'll

find your daughter again.

>> There's something I could do to help us.

Sitting around, it's the hard part. You

understand? You're sitting there with a

phone waiting.

>> Well, maybe there is something.

>> You know, Tommy could have something to

do with this. That's Alli's boyfriend.

Maybe he's in town. We could use a

sketch of him.

>> That's not a bad idea. I tell you what,

Mr. soccer. When Dan finishes with our

sketch artist, I'd like for you to get

with it.

>> Can you go with me downtown?

>> Thank you. Thank kindness. I'll be right

with you.

>> I'll talk to you later.

>> Okay, then.

>> Can you really do it this time, Mr.

Tanner? Can you find her before the

others?

>> Well, those other guys have to lie low

for a while. You downtown lieutenant.

I'll find it up.

>> Thank you.

>> Yeah.

Yeah, I need your help to put yourself

in Alli's shoes for a minute. You're

just out of school. You're a runaway.

You don't know anybody in a strange

town. You got no money.

>> Everything you get, you get off the

streets.

There's something very different

happening inside of you for the first

time. You don't understand it.

>> What do you do? Where do you go for

help?

>> I don't know. I've never been down that

road.

>> I know somebody who has, though. Her

name's Elaine and she's a show girl. Do

you want me to go talk to her?

>> Yeah, call her right away.

>> Benzer, I want you to take those

pictures of Ali and get them distributed

all over town. The bus boys, the bell

boys, the cat, the change uh girls, the

whole works. I want to army looking for

the girl. Right.

>> Great. I'm not even here. Leg work. It's

all in the leg work. I see this.

>> So, can you help me?

>> Well, I'm sure I can, honey. After all,

we've known each other quite a while.

But you got to hurry. I'm in the next

number.

>> Well, it's for this girl. She's a

runaway.

>> A friend of yours. Sir, I understand.

Say no more, V. Well, she's gotten

herself in a little bit of trouble. And

I heard that there's a doctor around

town that

>> Oh, he'll help. Don't worry. Whatever

the problem is. And no questions asked.

Not even your name if you don't want to

give it.

>> Oh, I see. Well, you have to bring a lot

of cash. Is that what it is?

>> Well, that's what I thought when I first

heard about him. But it's not like that.

I mean, even if you don't have any

money. Well, that's all right, too. His

door is always open. You can count on

it.

>> That's really good to know. Can I have

the name and address of this doctor?

>> Oh, sure. It's Rner Avenue, 210, Dr.

Morton Faber, and you can mention my

name.

>> Thank you, Elaine. Hey, what's an old

friend for?

>> Hey, we're ready. Come on.

Tennis

>> Dan Dr. Fixit's name is Morton Faber and

he's on Radner 210.

>> Thanks be and thank you Elaine. I

>> already did. Bye-bye.

>> May I help you?

>> Well, I hope so. My name is uh Dan Tan.

I'm a private investigator. I'd like to

talk to Dr. Favor.

>> Well, he's with the patient. If you care

to take a seat.

>> Oh, ma'am. Uh, have you ever seen this

girl before?

>> Excuse me.

She got a little skinnier since that

picture was taken, huh? Well, except for

>> You know this girl?

>> Oh, yeah, sure. She was sitting right

next to me a little while ago. Real

freaked out, you know. I figured I would

do my good deed for the year and talk to

her some, right? All I did was listen.

>> What did she say?

>> There's only one thing on that

ding-dong's mind, and that is her

wonderful boyfriend. Just as soon as he

showed up, everything's going to be

sweet hunky dory. Where have I heard

that one before? I'll tell you, you can

turn blue holding your breath waiting

for guys.

>> The doctor will see you now.

>> Thank you very much.

>> You're welcome.

Mr. Tana, Dr. Faber,

did this girl come to see you?

>> Yeah, she was here.

>> Doctor, it's very important that I find

her.

>> Oh,

I want to help her.

I believe you.

>> How long ago did she leave?

>> Well, she left about 15 minutes ago. She

was nauseous and in pain, but she didn't

need medical treatment as much as she

needed food and rest. Now, I tried to

persuade her to stay here, at least

until after the birth. I have uh private

accommodations, but she wouldn't listen

to me. She said there was someone that

she had to find.

>> Tommy?

Yeah, Tommy. She said when she found

him, they'd have a very romantic

honeymoon at some hotel way out in the

desert. They'd have it all to

themselves. And then she said something

very funny that the swimming pool was

filled with sand.

>> Filled with sand?

>> Yeah. Well, you can see she's

disoriented and frightened.

She doesn't trust anyone.

>> Doctor, is there anything you can tell

me that might help me find her?

>> Yes, if you move quickly. I gave her a

prescription for pain. I sent her to a

pharmacy. I have a little fund there for

people who don't have any money. It's at

the corner of Valley View in Paradise.

>> Thank you, doctor. If she comes back,

you'd call me.

>> I will.

Good luck to you, Mr. Tanner.

>> Good luck to both of you.

Ally,

>> how do you know my name?

>> It's okay, my friend. I'm working for

your

>> Stay away.

I know who you are. Don't lie to me.

You're from Phoenix.

>> Phoenix. Allie. No. Listen. Wait.

>> Wait. Allie.

>> Don't come any closer, mister. I know

how to shoot and I will.

I mean it.

>> Allie. I don't know who you think I am,

but I'm on your side. Believe me.

>> Yeah, I'll bet you are. I'll just bet. I

know what you're after, and you ain't

getting it. Not till I talk to Tommy. I

ain't doing nothing until Tommy tells me

now. Where is he? He said he would be

here in Vegas. Now where is he? What

have you done with him?

>> I don't know where Tommy is.

>> My name is Dan. Dantana,

my private detective. That's how I know

who you are.

Your father hired me to find you.

>> You're a liar.

My father eats my guts. He don't care if

I live or die.

Ally, that's not the way it is. Your

father loves you. I mean, he hasn't

stopped looking for you since you went

away.

He got this far and he needed some help.

And that's where I came in.

>> He's here.

My father's here.

>> You let me, I can take you to him.

>> No. No. I don't need him. I don't need

anybody. Just Tommy.

>> I don't know what kind of trouble you're

in.

>> I don't know who's after you or where

Tommy is.

But I want you to understand one thing.

The

>> bad part's over.

>> Don't Don't come closer.

>> Nobody can get through this world alone.

At some point, you got to just trust

somebody or you go under.

I trust you, Ali Tucker.

I trust you with my life.

Come on. It's okay.

It's okay.

It's all right.

Damn, I thought you were kidding when

you sh quiet. Is she going to have a

baby? Look, uh, I'm going to call B.

I'll boil some water. Okay.

>> Only if you want some tea. We'll get her

to the hospital in the morning. She

needs to rest now.

>> What about Lieutenant Nelson? He's going

to want to talk to her about the guys

that tried to kidnap His questions will

wait till after breakfast. Get back to

your sheets.

>> Yeah.

>> How about her dad? I called him at the

hotel. He's on his way. Take your shoes

off. All right.

Um,

I guess I'll go make some tea.

It's funny. She's pregnant. I got

swollen ankles.

Where is she?

>> This way.

Ellie.

Hey, wake up.

>> What?

>> Hi.

>> Hi. It's your father.

>> Hello, Ally.

>> How are you, honey?

That's not my father.

>> Just relax, Tana.

>> Thanks for your help, Tana,

but we won't be requiring your services

anymore.

Careful, Tana. In certain situations,

rage is a luxury.

>> What do you want with this girl?

She has something that belongs to me,

don't you?

Dominic, take his gun and search him.

Sit. Sit down. Come on.

Where are they? Do you have them with

you,

Dominic?

First the purse, then the girl.

Mr. Tanner, this this photo, where did

you get this?

>> He gave it to me.

Oh no.

Oh no. Tommy was Tommy was carrying

this.

Where is he? What have you done with

him?

>> Nothing.

>> Maybe she sewed it in the lining.

Ellie, what is it?

What do you have that they want so bad?

>> It was some books

uh with uh words in it. Thomas said it

was code and uh numbers

that he said was dollars. Big numbers.

>> How'd you happen to get it?

>> Um I was uh sick and and wore down from

the bus ride. It was so hot.

And uh so he told me I wouldn't have to

ride the bus no more. And uh he hotwired

the car and uh we found the books in the

car.

>> Months of planning and along comes Romeo

and Juliet looking for a joy ride and

they have to steal my car.

>> There was more.

There was some uh uh dumb ordinary

baggage claim checks. Uh five of them

from uh train stations in five different

states. One right in Phoenix.

And uh Tommy was just sure they was

important.

>> So he took them too.

>> Yeah.

I was scared,

but he had them numbers burn in his

head.

So, uh, he gave me the the claim checks

and the the books and and put me on a

bus

and he said he'd meet me in Vegas the

next day.

I've been waiting four days and nights

now.

Where is he? Where's Tommy?

>> And you staked out the railroad station.

Young fool just sailed right in. But he

only had one claim check on him.

>> He's dead, isn't he?

You killed him.

>> Tommy did love to talk, didn't he?

That's how we found out all about Tommy

and Ally.

More than enough background for me to

create my story.

Now,

all I want are the books and four claim

checks, and then we'll be on our way.

>> Now, listen, Ally,

don't tell him. That's your only chance.

Don't tell him a thing.

>> Joey,

>> no.

>> I'll give you what you want, okay? It

don't matter to me now if I live or die,

but nobody else is going to die in my

account.

I've got it hid

>> where

>> I'll take you there at sunup. You'll

never find it now. There's no lights.

>> Tie them up.

>> Take her to the car.

Chewy.

>> I hate it when this happens.

This happened to you a lot.

>> Get ready

>> for what?

>> Get ready to move. Finish them both, but

use a knife so you don't draw a crowd.

>> Oh boy.

>> Hey, get up. Get up.

You get him. The knife. The knife. The

knife right under him. Careful. Get a

hand. Have you got it? Very careful.

Watch the dance.

>> You all right?

>> Yeah.

>> God, we were great. What a team. I think

I'm loose. I'm loose. I'm loose. Okay, I

got it.

>> Okay, keep the gut on him. Call Nelson.

>> All right. Where are you going to go?

>> I got it. Bins, as frightened as Ally

was, the one thing she'd be sure of is

the place where she'd have her baby. And

I don't think she'd hide the stubs in

those books in some other place. You

see, Dr. Faber thought that Ally was

disoriented because she talked about

having a romantic honeymoon at a hotel

all alone in the desert with Tommy and

that the swimming pool was filled with

sand. Now, what does that sound like to

you?

>> I don't know. An abandoned hotel?

>> Yeah. Yeah. She She said she couldn't go

till sun cuz there were no lights.

>> Right, Vince? I know it's a long shot,

but that sounds like the Sunrise Hotel

out on I-15 to me. Now, when Nelson gets

here, you have him call me on the car

phone, right? I hope your long shot

works.

It's in there.

>> Come on, little mama. Only a little

further now.

Tana.

>> Dan, it's Dave.

>> Did Benzer fell you in?

>> Yeah. And I think you're right about the

Sunrise. It's the only abandoned hotel I

know of.

>> The minute Ally tells Tucker away she

hid those claim checks and books, the

man will kill her. He's ruthless.

>> More than you know. I think his name is

Moran. Better known as gentleman John

Moran. John Moran. He's laundered

millions in underworld cash.

>> Dan, those are the notebooks, the

numbers she talked about, and in the

claim checks.

>> I got a report from the Phoenix police.

They found the body of a young man who'd

been tortured to death. In his pocket,

there was a bus ticket to Vegas.

>> Ah, that's got to be Tommy.

>> The killer left an unmistakable

signature. It was the handiwork of a

Vietnamese hood had been hired by Moran.

And the maker Moran matches Caleb

Tucker.

>> Dave, I'm almost there. Can you back me

up?

>> You got it. I'll see you, Benzer.

>> Okay.

How sweet.

>> Where is it?

>> I tried to clean it up and make a place

for us.

Tommy and me.

Where is it?

>> It's in the pillowcase on the right.

It's all here.

What are you afraid of, little mama?

I thought you were ready to die.

No, no,

it's my baby. I can feel him inside of

me moving.

He's alive.

It's my last part of Tom and don't kill

my baby.

All right, hold it right there.

Take it

close.

You all right? Hey.

>> Okay,

take it easy. It's going to be all

right.

Okay.

>> It's okay. Relax.

>> Oh, god damn. I'm scared.

>> Okay, relax. You know what to do. You're

prepared, right? Okay. Don't forget to

breathe.

>> I did that the Ma method with Tommy

before.

I know. And I read the pamphlet with

just a couple of fros, right?

Okay. Don't forget to breathe. Don't

tighten up. Okay. It's all right.

Breathe.

Relax. Relax. Relax.

Oh.

61.

>> All right. Want to get ready to push?

You ready? Ready. Breathe. And push.

Three. Four. Five. Six. Pushes.

>> All right. Breathe. Breathe. Breathe.

Breathe. One more time. Here we go. And

push.
