Next on Vegas, a beautiful singing star

is raped by a picture-taking psycho.

What else can you tell me about?

>> He came back to the same girl and did it

again.

>> And if the public finds out, Mr. Tenn,

I'll be ruined.

>> Only one in eight rape cases is ever

reported.

>> Got to nail this guy. Heat. Heat.

Heat up

here.

Heat

up

here.

Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

No, no, no, John. I'll handle it.

>> Hi. Welcome to Las Vegas, Miss Payne.

Your suite is ready.

>> I'm really impressed. I wasn't expecting

any until tomorrow.

>> Oh, Mr. Off came from Paris. He told us

you'd be flying in ahead of your party.

Now, he asked me to take special care of

you. Now, my name is Carl Septton, and I

must assure you that it will be my

pleasure, and I think you'll be very

pleased with the accommodations. It's

our Emerald Suite. I think you'll find

it quite lovely.

>> Now, uh, Miss Payne, I'm I'm sorry. I I

don't I don't wish to bother you, but I

wonder is it possible if uh could I have

an autographed picture of you from my

office?

>> Well, sure, Mr. Septin, if you'll do

something for me. Please don't tell

anyone I'm here.

>> I won't tell a living show.

>> Now, I'll ask hotel security to put a

man outside your door in case some of

your fans spotted you here in a lot.

>> Well, there's no need for that, Mr.

Sept. My personal manager will arrange

for security for me. I didn't tell him I

was coming in early. Uh, would you mind

calling him in LA for me, please, and

telling him I'm already here?

>> Oh, I certainly will. Come, we'll go

this way.

Heat. Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

It's really beautiful.

>> Thank you very much. Now, Mr. Roth wants

you to know anything you need. Anything

at all, you just let us know.

>> Oh, thank you, Mr. Stephanie. I think

what I really need is a lot of sleep

before rehearsals begin and a nice hot

bath.

>> Of course. You sleep well.

>> Thank you.

Jack.

Come in.

Would

you stack it in there by the closet,

please? There's some money for you on

the table.

>> Thanks, ma'am.

>> Will there be anything else, ma'am?

>> No, that's it. Thanks.

>> Thank you, ma'am.

What the [ __ ]

Dantenna.

>> This is Carl Sutton at the Aladdin.

>> Yeah, Carl. What's your trouble?

>> Dan, it's about a pain.

>> Da pain? What happened?

>> Well, I I'm not sure now. Somebody

slugged one of our bell boys as was

going up to the Emerald Suite with her

luggage. I got up there as soon as I

heard.

>> Go on.

>> Well, she's locked herself in her

bedroom and she won't come out. And I

tell you, she sounds just awful and she

won't talk with me. All she says is that

she wants to see you.

>> Me? She doesn't know me from the Lone

Ranger.

>> Well, she asked me who was the best

private eye in town, Dan. I told her you

were it.

>> Thanks, Carl. I'm on my way.

My god you're here.

>> What's going on, Carl? Oh,

>> she's still in our room. She won't come

out.

>> Miss Payne, Mr. Tanner's here.

I'll take you from here. All right,

>> Mr. Tanner,

>> Miss Payne,

what happened?

I

>> I was attacked,

raped.

What are you doing?

>> Call the police.

>> No, Mr. Tenner. No, please. No, please.

Please,

>> Miss Payne. The only chance of getting

this guy is reporting it to the police.

>> If the public finds out, Mr. Tan, I'll

be ruined.

I really don't think I could ever face

an audience again.

>> Well, nobody can blame me for what

happened here. It's not your fault.

Several years ago, this happened to a

friend of mine. She was a big singing

star.

Well, it was on television, on the

radio. It was headlines. She lost her

marriage and in many years out of her

career, which she'll probably never get

back.

And believe me, she'll never be the same

again.

Are you here alone?

>> Why? I thought superstars traveled with

uh managers, press people, entouragees

to protect them.

>> Well, I flew in a day early.

I needed some time to be alone. My

manager always arranges for security

guards, a private service.

I know they were notified I was coming

in. I I guess they just don't know I'm

here yet.

>> I see.

>> I had to talk to someone, not the

police.

>> You know, it is possible to report this

to the police.

>> Mr. Tanner,

>> in confidence without publicity,

the note guarantees the press won't pick

it up, but I'll do my best to keep it

quiet. But it's the only chance we have

to nail this guy before he does it

again.

I realize that I wouldn't want this to

happen to anyone.

>> That's your decision.

>> You're hired, Mr. Tanner, to make sure

only the police know and no one else.

>> Like I said, I'll do my best.

>> Okay. Did you uh did you see this guy?

Did you get a look at him?

>> He was wearing a mask.

All I can tell you is he was

6' tall, maybe more,

and he's got one hell of a scratch down

his chest.

Did you wash your hands?

Don't

I think you should uh get dressed?

We'll go downtown and uh talk to a

friend of mine.

Lieutenant Nelson, please.

>> Nelson.

>> Dave, I need your help.

>> Why is it you always need my help when

I'm stacked up to my ears?

>> Because when things are quiet, you ask

too many questions.

Look back. Keep this under your hat. But

Diana Payne's in town.

>> I know that, Dan.

>> How do you know?

>> Carl Septton called me from the Aladdin

about the special security arrangements.

Her management has hired a private

outfit, the Sun City Security. As a

matter of fact, they've already sent a

man over. He's waiting now. So, why

don't you get to the point?

>> I need you to make up two forensic teams

right away.

>> Two? Why? Need to send one to the

Aladdin the Emerald Suite. Then bring

one with you to the Valley Hospital.

>> What's this all about?

>> Rape.

Send in the man from Sun City.

You want to see me, Lieutenant?

We've arranged for a different suite for

you, Miss Payne. I'll have you sent back

the hotel and unmarked car.

>> Thank you, Lieutenant.

>> Lieutenant, we'll try to keep this from

immediate.

>> Are you sure there's nothing else that

you can remember that would help us?

>> No,

>> but maybe there are.

You stay in the suite, try to rest.

>> Yeah, I um I should arrange a wardrobe

fitting about 4:00.

>> 4:00.

If you feel up to it, I'll come by.

>> Yeah, I have to. Otherwise, someone will

think something's wrong.

>> Thanks, Dan.

Great lady.

Like to get the guy who did this.

>> So would I. We don't have much to go on.

Approximate height, weight.

>> We'll have a blood drip soon.

>> Yeah. Well, the lab boys ought to be

able to do something with the skin

that's under her fingernails. I just

hope it's a rare type.

>> So, what do we have so far? Diana said

that this sicko was taking photographs,

right?

>> That's right. I'm checking out the

records on photo freak moss. And

>> what about the other forensic team? They

come up with anything in the suite?

>> Nothing. The only fingerprints we got

off the luggage was from the bell boy

who was slugged. And he's out with a

concussion.

>> Dave, we got to start somewhere. What

about the Metro rape file?

>> Dan, that's a long shot. Only one in

eight rape cases is ever reported.

>> I have to start checking on some of the

unreported cases. I'm going to nail this

guy.

Dr. Martin.

>> Yeah. to disturb you, but it's important

that I talk to you for a minute.

>> I'll be back.

>> What do you want here, Mr. Tana?

>> I have a client who's been raped.

>> Has she been to the police? Yes, I

persuaded her. But getting her to

testify, that's another story again.

>> The rape takes place in private.

Being a court victim is very public.

>> Well, if we can't get our victims to

testify, we're not going to solve the

problem of rape now, are we?

>> I agree with you, Mr. Tanner. But that

depends on the girl. Many of them,

although they're not on trial, go into

court feeling guilty. And these feelings

are all very deeply rooted in ancient

taboos and in the victim's own feeling

of being responsible for her own rape.

Now,

it's my job to try to help them overcome

these reactions. But my first duty

is to help the patient adjust, lead a

normal life again.

Doctor, I don't know who assigned you to

this job, but I think they got the right

person.

>> Well, I do have one very special

qualification. That's why the girls

trust me.

Ah,

I'm looking for a particularly brutal

rapist. Thought you might recognize his

moto operendi.

>> Everything my patients tell me is in the

strictest confidence. Mr. Tanner,

even more so than in general practice.

>> Doctor, I'm not asking you about your

patients. I just want you to tell me if

one of them have told you about a man, a

rather large man, who wears a ski mask

and takes photographs.

Yeah,

I know of him.

>> What else can you tell me about him?

>> One thing,

he came back to the same girl and did it

again.

As long as I've been working with

victims, I've never known anyone to do

that.

Now, excuse me, Mr. Yeah.

>> 10 investigations.

>> B. Any messages?

>> Yes. Are you interested in dance lessons

for two for the price of one?

I'm tap dancing as fast as I can right

now. Is that it?

>> No, not quite. Nelson wants you to meet

him at the Aladdin.

>> Right. Is Bener there?

>> Yeah, right here.

>> Yeah, Bener, I want you to get over the

Aladdin, too. Uh, talk to Carl Septton.

He's one of Roth's aids.

>> Carl Septton, right?

>> Yeah. Ask him for a listen all the male

staff members who were on duty today.

Then find me.

>> Okay, it's as good as done.

>> See you there.

Hi,

>> how you doing? Computers came up with a

match. Six unsolved cases in Pittsburgh.

>> Same ML and description.

>> Yep. And no suspects. You ready for the

kicker? Three out of the six cases.

>> Came back and attacked the girl again.

>> You got it. Dan, this is my position. I

would love to give Miss Payne

roundthe-clock police protection, but I

just don't have the men.

>> Well, we just better make sure these Sun

City security guys are on the boat.

>> My thoughts exactly. In fact, a couple

of them are on their way over here.

>> Now, all we have to do is explain to

Diana why it's necessary.

>> No, not we. She's your client. Besides,

I have to wait for those fellas. Of

>> course you do.

Oh,

>> that's going to knock those guys right

back in their seats. You look great.

>> I I look like I look like a CHEAP

HOOKER. IS THAT what they expect of me,

Sylvia? Am I supposed to go out there

and and and show off my body to a bunch

of learing freaks?

And who the hell cares if I sing or not?

I MEAN, MAYBE I SHOULD do a strip tease

instead.

Hi.

>> Hi.

>> Diana, you don't have to wear the dress.

You don't even have to do the show.

>> I don't want to do the show, but I'm

doing it because that's what the public

expects.

Because if I don't, I don't think I'll

ever be able to walk out on a stage

again.

>> I can't think of a better reason to do

it.

I guess I should try on some other

dresses.

>> Look, you're opening in 4 days. I just

want you to know that we're going to do

our best to give you protection night

and day.

>> How come?

>> We just don't want to take any chances.

>> Excuse me. Gordon, Sun City Security,

reporting for special duty. Miss Payne,

>> Theo Latimer, it's really a pleasure to

meet you, Miss Payne.

Big fan of yours.

>> Thank you.

>> Hey, what happened to that coffee? You

>> better call room service again, Theo.

>> I just did.

>> They sure take their time. Better call a

head office to check in on the hour.

>> Just going to

Yeah, this is Gordon Latimer at the

Aladdin 11:00. All okay. Nothing to

report, right?

Okay, then I'll take care of it. I'll

see you. Okay. Bye-bye.

>> Mr. Septton, Dan said to thank you for

staying late. He appreciates it and

he'll be right over.

>> There's no problem. I'm just sorry it

took so long to get a copy of this duty

roster. Uh, by the way, is this about

what I think it's about?

>> Yes, sir. So, you understand why no one

can know about it?

>> Oh, not a word. Not a word.

>> Okay. Um, these five men are the only

ones who seem to fit the height and

weight and and were there at the right

time?

>> Yeah, I'll check it against my print

out.

>> All right. Could Could you look first at

that man, Draker? Leslie Draker. Um,

he's an electrician. He works alone.

Seems he had plenty of opportunity. Can

you tell me how long he's been with the

hotel?

>> Draker. Draker.

5 years.

>> No, I don't think that's any good. Dan

said that the man we're looking for has

only been in Las Vegas about 6 months.

Uh, he was in Pittsburgh before that.

How about this guy, Michael Davos?

>> Davos?

>> Yeah. Davos. Davos.

Davos. Davos. Davos. A part-time waiter.

about 7 to 8 weeks. Could you check him

out?

>> It's awfully late, but I'll call the

head of personnel at home.

>> That's about time.

>> Sugar.

>> Yeah, just one. Thanks.

Thank you. Enjoy your evening. Thanks a

lot.

>> There you go, babe.

>> Thanks. She's still asleep now.

>> Oh, yeah. She's taking a sip if she's

out like the light. Uhhuh.

>> I'll see you at midnight.

Yes. Well, thank you, Mr. Gilbert, and

I'm sorry to have disturbed you this

late at night. Yeah. Good night.

>> Hi. What do you got?

>> Well, I think we have it narrowed down.

>> According to our record, a man named

Davos fits the description, the time

frame, everything. But the personnel

personnel says he's an excellent worker.

That he fills in when somebody gets ill

or goes on vacation.

>> What do you got in his background?

>> Well, only that he has first class

references.

>> Where's he from?

>> Well, he's worked at Atlantic City,

Miami, the Poconos.

>> You got a local address?

>> Yeah, I got that here.

>> Well, you won't need that. If you want

to talk to him, he's in the hotel right

now. He came in especially to relieve

someone.

>> Where do we find him?

>> I don't know,

but I'll find out. Heat.

Heat.

Yes, thank you. He's not in the Sultan's

den. I'll try the main restaurant.

Yeah.

Heat.

Thank you.

Davos is on night room service in the

penthouse wing.

>> Penthouse wing? That's where Diana suite

is. Try to get her on the phone. Carl,

you alerted security about Davos.

Security is false subject.

May I have Diana pain sweet, please?

Wake up. Wake

Diana. Diana,

Diana, Diana,

Diana,

Diana,

Diana.

Diana

Dan,

get the house doctor up or then to call

Lieutenant Nelson.

>> Operator, I'm in the Topaz suite. This

is an emergency. Get the house doctor

here, please, and get Lieutenant David

Nelson at Metro on the phone.

Yes. Now,

huh? You okay?

>> You never entered the room, Mr. Dallas.

>> No, never. I I served the coffee to the

officer in the hallway. His partner came

out and I left.

>> Um I checked the other suites and and he

made two deliveries before he got here

and then two after. And there's a

witness who says he was with him when

they heard the screaming and you firing

>> and you left your card in the hall.

>> Oh, yeah. You didn't see anyone near the

cart?

>> No, nobody. Okay, Mr. Davos, Lieutenant

Nelson wants a statement from you later.

Anybody

going to have drug that coffee? All

right. Why don't you go downstairs and

wait for Nelson? All right.

>> Okay.

>> How's Miss P?

>> It could have been worse.

>> Well, talk to her.

>> Not yet. Any more questions might push

her over the edge.

>> Was she saying anything at all?

>> Just one thing. And it was the same man

over and over again.

>> What about the asalants?

>> I scared him off. He went out this way.

Probably crossed over to the next

balcony down the fire escape.

>> You figure he came in the same way?

>> Oh, maybe. Maybe a pass key.

>> What about the waiter Davos?

>> He's clean. The two guards were heavily

drugged. They're at the hospital now.

Doc says he'll be okay in a couple

hours.

>> Well, I'll have to get a statement from

both of them and one from Miss Payne

when she can.

Lieutenant,

I found this outside.

>> Frank,

what could you tell me about this?

>> Not much. Made in Japan. We import about

a million a year and uh every tourist

from Tokyo has one.

>> What about the film? Light struck.

You're not going to get a picture out of

this.

>> It's foreign.

>> Where would he buy it?

>> Not in Vegas. It's European. Might have

bought it back east, though.

>> Pittsburgh.

>> Williams. Get this stuff downtown. Oh,

>> we'll see what we get. I just wish we

had a face.

>> Well, there might be someone in town

who's seen that face.

>> Your unreported case. Yeah, the girl was

attacked by the same man. If I could

just get to her.

>> You got a better chance of that than I

have, my man.

>> Don't bet on it. See you,

>> Don. Frank

What can I do for you this time?

>> Doctor, I need to talk to your patient.

>> It's no good, Mr. Tanner. I operate on

trust. girls hurt, frightened, feeling

guilty have to know that nothing they

say goes any further.

>> Look, doctor, you called it. This guy

did it again. He came back after the

same victim, my client.

Now, he's not going to stop until we

stop him. So, how about some

preventative medicine, doctor?

I need your help. I need the help of

your anonymous patient.

All right, I'll call her. But if she

says no, that's the end of it. Okay, you

got yourself a deal.

>> T investigations.

>> Hi, Beatatrice.

>> Uhoh. When you say Beatatric, I brace

myself for a crisis. But crisis is

getting to be the norm around here.

Listen, I want you to go over to the

Ladden, take care of Diana Payne. Carl

Septton will take you up to her suite.

>> Okay. How is she?

>> Well, probably still sleeping under

sedation. She had another bad experience

last night.

>> Oh, no.

>> Yeah. Stay there till I get there. If

she wakes up, maybe she'll want somebody

to talk to.

>> Okay. Where can I reach you?

>> You can't. I'll be talking with an

anonymous lady at a secret address.

Don't ask.

our statements. Lieutenant,

>> you guys look like two mobile

tombstones.

>> Oh, please, Lieutenant. You're just

going to have to keep your voice down. I

mean, we got a pair of huge hangovers.

>> What's happening? Uh, did they catch the

guy that slipped us in Mickey?

>> No, not yet. But uh Tana will come up

with something.

>> Tana?

How come?

>> Well, it seems that there was another

young lady attacked by the same man

earlier. Tana's got a line on her. Tell

you what, why don't you have some coffee

while I look these over?

>> Oh, listen, Lieutenant. You're going to

have to excuse me. I got to go lay down

for a while.

>> Well, you want somebody to drive you

home?

>> No thanks. I got my car in the parking

lot. I'll be okay.

>> I'll hang on, Theo. I'll let you know if

the lieutenant has any questions.

>> You bet. Go ahead. I'll talk to you

later. Thanks a lot.

Who is it?

>> My name is Tana. Dr. Martin Cole.

Come in, please.

>> You're Judy Charles.

>> Yes.

>> I saw you break the record for the 100

meter hurdles on television.

>> Is that what you came to talk about?

>> Well, no, but I used to see you work out

at the club. I I've missed you. I wonder

what happened to you.

That's what you came to talk about? What

happened to me?

>> Yes.

Uh, Miss Charles, can you tell me how

long ago it happened?

>> 10 weeks ago. Yesterday.

>> Well, maybe after this is all over. Uh,

I'll see you back at the club.

>> I guess Dr. Martin didn't tell you

everything, Mr. Tana.

You see, when that animal came back a

second time after he was through, he

broke my right kneecap.

>> I'm sorry.

>> Dr. Martin says that uh the man that

attacked me is is still active. I'm

afraid to stay here living alone. So, uh

I'm going over to my brother's place for

a while.

>> I think that's a good idea.

I know this is not easy and I hate to

take you through it again, but u

the man who attacked you, was he wearing

a ski mask?

>> Both times.

>> What about his eyes? Do you remember his

eyes?

>> I'm hardly likely to forget them. They

were pale blue.

>> You remember anything else?

>> There was a narrow white band on the

third finger of his right hand. Uh like

he just removed a ring. Uh, the ammo

doesn't fit. So, the guy was wearing

gloves.

>> Well, he was with me, too.

>> What?

>> Oh, they were surgical gloves. Very

fine. So fine that I could see through

them and I could see the white band.

>> What?

Thanks very much.

Hope you don't have to stay at your

brothers too long.

>> Would you be going anywhere near

Crescent 9th?

>> Sure.

I'm sorry, Mr. Septton. There's no way I

can do the show.

>> What am I going to tell Mr. Roth?

>> Well, you can tell him that I'm not

feeling well. I need some time alone. I

just need to get away. I know Philip

will understand. Have you told Dan

you're leaving?

>> No. Be would you mind telling him for

me?

>> I'll try.

>> Tell him that I appreciate everything

he's done and to send the bill to the

Kenworthy agency in LA on Sunset.

>> I'll tell him.

>> Thank you.

>> If that lady quits performing, it's

going to destroy what's left of her.

>> Hi, Hank. How's it going?

>> No problems. Thought you were going to

rest.

>> Oh, I did. I feel good as new. It's

Chuck in there,

>> right?

>> Listen, go home and play with your kids.

You release here.

See you later.

>> Yes. It's imperative that we hear

immediately. Thank you.

The president of Sun City Security

confirms that Vladimir came here from

out of town. He spent seven years on a

police force in Pittsburgh.

>> Well, Dave, everything fits. The film

with that camera had to be purchased

back east.

>> Dan, that's circumstantial.

>> But what about the white band around his

finger?

>> Look, Vladimir was drugged the same way

Gordon was. Now, the hospital reports.

>> He could have drugged himself. He could

have thrown the bag out the window. I'll

stake my license that before your boys

are through, they'll find he had

opportunities in both cases.

>> Damn, I hope you're wrong.

I hate to think of any ex- cop going

rotten.

All right, I'll call Pittsburgh.

>> Your limousine is waiting downstairs.

Miss Payne,

>> excuse me, sir. Miss Payne is still

under protection. I don't think the

police want her to leave town.

>> Well, you can tell Lieutenant Nelson

that I'm dropping the complaints and u

I'll be catching a plane.

All right. Well, in that case, I'll

drive you. A limousine will attract too

much attention. You don't want to be

mobbed by fans, do you?

>> Thank you. Appreciate it.

>> You uh let the bellman in, please.

>> Certainly. I guess.

>> Thank you, Captain.

So, Pittsburgh PDM

was under suspicion twice. Attempted

rape. He quit before they could build a

case. And it seems that the inquiry

report mysteriously disappeared from his

record file.

>> So when he applied for his job here, he

checked that claim.

>> That's right. There's one other thing.

His blood type matches the samples found

under Diana Payne's fingernails.

>> Can I go

>> Aladdin Hotel?

>> Give me the topass suite, please.

>> Hello.

>> Behave. The guards watch out for

Vladimr. may try to come for Diana,

>> but she just left for the airport with

him.

>> Well, call hotel security. Maybe they

could stop him.

>> Right behind you.

>> I want road blocks at Katie and Maryland

Parkway right away.

>> Thank you, Mr. Septton. I'll call Mr.

Roth tonight when I get in. I promise.

>> Thank you. And I'm really very, very

sorry, Miss Bing.

Goodbye, Miss Pain.

Somebody car.

Attention.

Attention. All points. Theodore Latimer,

Sun City Security. Suspicion of rape and

attempted murder. Approach with caution.

Suspect is armed and dangerous.

>> Suspect is armed and dangerous. Andy has

a hostage. If you're my seat belt, I've

taken this superstar.

>> Oh my god. I knew this was coming when

Tana got to the Charles,

but I've always had the good sense to

stay one jump ahead.

Always knew when to cut and move on.

>> Not again, please. Not again.

>> Hey, Diana,

just relax.

Heat. Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Now that's as far as you go. Don't try

to follow me in here. If you do, she

gets a bullet for every step you take.

Tell Tana to show off some now.

It's okay, Diana.

So, we're good.

Stop playing old time rock and roll.

Call me a call for you. Say I'm old

fashion. Say I'm over here.

Today the music ain't got the same soul.

I like that old time rock and roll.

Still like that old time rock and roll.

The kind of music soo the soul.

I reminis about the days of old with

that old time rock and roll.

Still like that old rock and roll

music soul.

I reminisce about the tears of old

time rock and roll. Still like that old

The kind of music just soul.

I reminisce about the days of old with

The kind of music fell through the soul.

She is great. She is really great.

>> She's more than great. She's fabulous.

>> You know, she's agreed to testify

against Vladimir.

>> That lady's got guts.
