Who is he?

Never saw him before,
Mannix?

That's a reasonable deduction,
Sergeant.

Name was O'Farrell.

Michael J.

Don't know him.

Released from state
prison a week ago.

Second-term paperhanger.

May he rest in peace.

Okay, Sergeant,
now let's have it.

Why did you drag me
down here to the morgue

on a busy morning?

Well, we found this
in his coat pocket.

He had your name
and number there.

Sorry.

I got no call
from a Mr. O'Farrell.

Well, I guess it couldn't
have been very important.

Sorry to bother you.

Had to check it out--
that's all.

What's this "B.C."?

Before Collision, maybe.

He was killed in a hit-and-run
last night.

You sure it's hit-run?

Well, there's nobody mad at him
that we know of.

You, uh, have any idea

why he might have
wanted me?

Forget it, Mannix!

The guy was nothing.

Maybe that's why I'm curious.

I guess that'll be all
for now, Mrs. O'Farrell.

Mr. Mannix
can't help us any.

Well, of course not!

What did you expect?

Well... I'll get a car
to drive you home now.

And here, if you want--

couple more things
from his pockets.

A few trading stamps,
couple of gas station coupons,

and a chance on a new
cabin cruiser.

No sweepstakes ticket?

I was so sure he was going to
use the grocery money yesterday

to buy a sweepstakes ticket.

Well...

we'll be in touch the minute
we get a line on the car.

Thank you.

Mrs. O'Farrell, uh,
do you have any idea

why your husband might have
wanted to call me?

Well, naturally,

naturally I do.

You were going to help him find
the pot of gold at the end

of the rainbow.

Oh, Sergeant, I'll drive

Mrs. O'Farrell home
for you.

Fine.

Why? I don't know anything.

Of course, I could
tell you that

the last time my husband
came home from prison,

he had the most beautiful scheme

for gold mining.

He just didn't know

that his cellmate
salted the mine.

And of course, by then he'd
already sold our car

to buy the mining equipment.

Luck of the Irish.

Oh, my husband, Mr. Mannix,

he was a one-man potato famine.

And then, uh,

there was the time
that, uh,

he was going to let the chief
of police himself in

on some new kind
of a patent for a siren

that was going
to make us all rich.

And then, uh, there was
a time that the....

What you mean,
Mrs. O'Farrell,

is you think I should
just forget about it.

What I mean is,

the last time
he came home from prison,

he knew better than to tell me
why he was so excited.

Maybe it had something to do
with his cellmate--

I don't know.

No.

Whatever his latest
little moonbeam was,

I can only guarantee you
it was worthless.

And as for calling you,
Mr. Mannix,

he could no more
have afforded

to pay for five minutes
of your time

than I can.

Any of those yours?

Just three.

My husband,
Mr. Mannix,

was nothing but a writer
of bad checks.

Even if he did write most
of them at Christmas time.

Mommy,
where have you been?

The television's
broken.

I'm coming,
sweetheart.

And yes, Mr. Mannix.

If you don't forget him
right now,

then you are almost
as big a fool as I am.

Thank you.

And good-bye.

What sort of a case you on?

Well, I'd just like to see
O'Farrell's last cellmate,

that's all.

Al Charnik.

They were pretty close buddies,
I guess.

Ever since Charnik came
in here two years ago.

Uh...

worthless hood...
armed robbery.

Oh, look, you don't have to
bother with the file.

I'd just like to talk to
him for a few minutes,
if it's all right.

He won't tell you much.

Tough?

Dead.

Been dead for nearly
three weeks now.

What happened?

Oh, Charnik was a troublemaker.

Did a lot of beefing.

And somebody in the yard
shut him up

with a kitchen knife.

Three weeks, huh?

O'Farrell was here then.

Did he have anything
to do with it?

No, no. I told you. Buddies.

O'Farrell was with him
in the hospital when he died.

Well...

I guess that's the end
of the rainbow.

Wait a minute.

Uh, does that thing have
the next of kin?

Mm-hmm.

Charnik had a wife once.

I remember that.

Pretty.

Name of Betsy.

Betsy Charnik?

That's right.

Betsy Charnik.

Once married to Al Charnik.

Yeah, where she lives,
where she works,

what she's doing-- anything
you can turn up.

Look, Sarge, as a
special favor.

So, call me back
in a hurry, huh?

All right, I'll
tell him.

Tell me what?

He thinks that I
deserve a raise.

As soon as your coffee
gets better.

You made that pot.

As soon as my coffee
gets better.

What's the big deal with
Betsy Charnik?

I think she may have some
answers to our little charade.

Boy, we're really coming up
in the world.

You're working
for no money,

a client that's dead

and to solve a problem
that maybe never happened.

Peggy, uh, do you ever buy
any sweepstakes tickets?

It's illegal.

How many?

Two-- three maybe this year.

Why?

Well, everybody believes that
lightning can strike once.

Exactly.

And I've got a hunch our client
thought his particular bolt

might strike in time
for Christmas.

What's Christmas got to do
with it?

You've got a kid,
haven't you, Peggy?

So?

Well, figure it out.

He had a family.

Two girls and a boy.

And you think
maybe if it works out,

they wind up with something
under the tree.

Maybe.

You'd look nice in
a white beard.

Mr. Mannix's office.

Yes, Sarge, what'd
you find out?

Uh-huh.

Mm-hmm.

Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

Right.

The raise?

Not yet.

But it's perking.

She's working as a programmer
at Atlas Computing Services

under her maiden name--
Betsy Carroll.

B.C.

She didn't have to change
her match covers.

Most girls aren't that lucky.

Yes, sure, that's me.

It's one of mine.

Can you tell me
how O'Farrell got that?

Talk to your sergeant.

He called me this morning.

I've already explained.

Mr. O'Farrell picked
that up off my desk

yesterday afternoon

to light a cigar-- that's all.

Mrs. Charnik, uh,

I'm a private investigator.

My name is Mannix.

The name on the inside
of the match cover.

I'm sorry,
Mr. Mannix.

I just don't know
anything about it.

I used to work
in a place like this.

By any chance, did the sergeant
tell you that O'Farrell is dead?

Yes, but you see,

the only time I ever saw him
was for just about a minute,

over there by my desk.

He said he came to
pay his respects

about my
husband, but...

I think he really wanted
to borrow money.

Then he started talking
in that loud voice

about prison and-and his
poor old cellmate Al...

So, you got rid of him,

and, uh, now you'd like me
to get lost, too, huh?

Well, it's
not as though

you were the police
coming to bother me again,

but don't you see?

I don't run
with people like that anymore.

I never did really.

It was just one stupid

child marriage
to a man

who raced jalopies
and blondes

while I was in
night school.

I found out.

I wasn't even living with Al

when he started
holding up liquor stores

and got sent to prison.

I mean, I'm
sorry, but...

Look, Mrs. Charnik, uh,

suddenly, there are
too many people coming up dead.

Somebody killed your ex-husband,
and then, uh, his prison mate

gets murdered, too.

Gets what?!

Why don't I explain later?

It's almost 6:00.

How about dinner?

Oh. No.

Uh, I have a date
with a girlfriend.

Come on now.
You can call her.

Mr. Mannix, I don't know
anything that can help you.

What is it you're
looking for, anyway?

Looking for a pot of gold
at the end of the rainbow.

How about it?

I live out in Malibu Canyon.

Well, that's beautiful.

I know a great spot
right on the ocean.

All right. Follow me
home, and I'll change.

I'll meet you in
the parking lot.

15 minutes?
Ten.

Just a minute.

I'm going to put my car
in the garage.

All right. Hold it.

What's the matter?

You hear that?

Oh, sure.

It's tree toads.

Don't drop.

Who was it?

I don't know,
but obviously,

he wanted to put you
on a dead list, too.

Me?

Yeah.

And maybe we're off
to the races now.

What's that?

An Irish Sweepstakes ticket.

Mr. Mannix's office.

Mannix, where on earth
have you been?

I tried to wait for you to call
before I locked up the office,

but Toby's supper
is half an hour late.

Get a what?

A baby-sitter?!

I'm sorry, Peggy,
but we've got work to do.

Get a hold of one
of those friends

of yours in gun registry.

I want to know the owner of
a .38 revolver number 883-784.

Yeah, right away.

Who knows?

It may registered to the
guy that just used it on me.

Mannix?
Yeah? Hold it, Peggy.

Yeah, what's the matter?

That man came to rob me.

The side window's
forced open.

He wasn't just here
to steal, Betsy.

Well, what did he want?

I mean, why shoot at me?

We probably just surprised him
breaking in, and...

Betsy, I want you
to go in and pack a bag.

I'm taking you back to town

where you'll be safe.

Oh, one other thing.

Uh, Peggy, I need a
TV repair man, fast.

And the biggest
and huskiest

you can find.

You say he's come to fix
my TV? Oh, no, he's not!

I've only just got
the kids to sit down
to their supper.

Oh, well, Mervin likes kids.
Don't you, Mervin?

And he'll also help
with the dishes.

Sure, you don't have to tell 'em
I'm really a bodyguard, ma'am.

A what?

Why?

Why? Did the police find
something?

Mrs. O'Farrell,
I don't know why yet.

I don't even know
why your husband was trying

to get in touch with me.

And I don't know what
his cellmate may have told him

while he was dying
in a prison hospital.

Well, if that don't beat
the rebels!

So now he's got you pipe
dreaming, too?

Yeah, maybe.

But Mervin stays here
until I do find the answers.

Oh, and, uh,

don't worry
about his bill.

I'll take care of it.

Now even from
beyond the grave,

that no-good
husband of mine

has made himself
a new sucker!

Oh, Mr. Mannix, I...?

Mrs. O'Farrell, now,
it's going to be all right.

Don't worry.

I really can
fix the TV, ma'am.

Joe, why does she need
protection?

I mean, what if you're being
an alarmist about all this?

Betsy, suppose your husband
was murdered in prison

to keep him quiet
about something?

And suppose O'Farrell was
killed for the same reason?

Oh, that's just supposing.

And suppose you'd
been killed by that guy

at your house tonight

because you were
Al Charnik's wife,

and because O'Farrell
came to see you.

Oh.

Uh, well, yeah, but...

that means someone thinks
I know something.

Hmm.
And I don't!

Well, it would mean someone's
been watching all the time.

Maybe lots of people.

Maybe right now.

Exactly.

So, what do you
want to bet?

What?

That the, uh, color at the
end of the rainbow is green.

In five minutes,

I'll have been off
duty for an hour.

I won't need
that five minutes, Sarge.

I think I just found him.

Fred Minelli-- a real pro.

Why don't you whistle?

Strong arm.

That's right.

He's worked for
some big ones.

There's no warrant
on him, though.

So, now what, Mannix?

You going to
prefer charges?

You going to tell me where
you tangled with this bird?

I might... if you can get me
a rundown on the receipt

for this sweepstakes ticket
that fell out of his pocket.

Look, you know the trouble
we had with tracing these.

Against the law, so there's
nothing but a number on them.

You can check the agents

who sell them
a lot faster than I can.

Might take several days.

What if I told you
that you'll find

that sweepstakes ticket
was sold to O'Farrell?

That still wouldn't prove

that O'Farrell's death
was anything but hit-and-run.

Well, you haven't
found the car that
hit him yet, have you?

So what?

And we also know that
O'Farrell's cellmate

was murdered in prison.

That still
doesn't say anything.

Here, look at this dope
on Charnik.

He was peanuts, too.

A small-time hoodlum.

So, who are you doing
all this for?

Just the widows
and orphans fund?

Maybe.

Armed robbery,
liquor store,

March 17.

That's St. Patrick's Day.

Yeah?

Yeah, hold a minute.

It's for you.

Hello.

I just got a call back
on that revolver.

Right. It was
bought in 1964

by a gun fancier
named Haskins.

Who?

Jug Haskins.

Yeah, yeah, that's
all I'll need, Peggy.

Yeah, and tell Betsy I'm
going to win that bet.

Hey, Sarge,

did this hood I tangled with
ever have anything

to do with a guy
named Jug Haskins?

Might have. So?

Well, wasn't Haskins a suspect

in the Harrison heist
about two years ago?

Who wasn't?

St. Patrick.

Thanks for the
trouble, Sarge.

Oh, I'd like to see
the boss.
Yeah?

Who'd like
to see him?

Some other
time, Mannix.

I think we'd
better talk.

Sorry, Mr.
Haskins.

It's okay, Max.

I'm a very busy man, baby.

You want to meet
the girls?

Relax and enjoy yourself.

Okay, after we talk
about this.

Oh, I think

this belongs to you.

Okay, inside.

You tell her to repeat.
She's lousy.

Put some action into it!

You know what?

This is the same model

some no-good punk
stole from me once.

Guy's name
was Fred.
Yeah, I figured.

I haven't seen Fred in,

oh, six months.

Where'd you find it?

What's the difference?

Let's talk
about the Harrison heist.

Mannix, the day after

the Harrison Bank and Trust
Company was heisted

two years ago, I was hauled in
without a warrant.

And you know,
at first I was flattered.

That was a pretty
fancy job.

They had organization,
planning,

a slick getaway.

But then when the cops couldn't
even hang a part of it on me,

the insurance boys stepped in.

And then the Treasury,
and then the FBI.

Oh, yeah,

I was rousted around pretty good
for a whole year.

Okay, so you know more about
the case than anybody else.

That's why I'm here.

Well, so, why me again?

Why don't you go
to the horse's mouth?

Sure, go to Harrison itself.

There's some bright punk
named Spencer.

He's the big wheel now.

No, no. Not until we
can collect the reward.

Now, there's $6 million
in cash and securities

floating around loose
some place, right?

Never been found.

Now you listen to me, Haskins.

Two years ago,
a hood named Charnik went

to prison for holding up
a liquor store, pleaded guilty.

Charnik?

Go on.

On St. Patrick's Day.

The same day
as the Harrison heist.

Only his job took place
all the way across town.

So what's the connection?

Now, wouldn't you say that maybe
Charnik took a phony rap,

just so he could get
a quick alibi?

Yeah, well, maybe, pal.

Only I never knew this Charnik.

And Charnik is now dead,
murdered.

And so is his
prison buddy

who was at his
side when he died.

Yeah, that's better, boys.
Now she's really going!

Mannix, Mannix.

I guess you figured
to come in here

and either scare me to
death with this stuff,

or maybe get me
to do your work for
you, is that right?

It was something
like that.

Anyway, if you, uh,
want to hear any more,

just, uh, give
me a call.

Yeah, well,
there's only one thing

you don't realize, pal.

There's other things
in life besides money.

You got to put it

Those ribs are going
to be x-rayed.

No, no, no-- these boys knew
what they were doing.

Ow!
Is that so?

Well, just wait
until you fall flat

on what's left
of the rest of your head.

They were real pros.

They didn't break a thing.

Well, aren't you
going to call the police?

There you go again, Betsy.

You know
there's a police sergeant

who'd laugh his head off
over this.

Laugh.

Yeah, I took off

in the wrong direction,
that's all.

On the wrong guy.

On the wrong day,
on the wrong case,

on the wrong crazy rainbow.

Peace, Peggy, peace.

Are these your notes?

Yup.

Has Mervin been
calling in on time?

Of course.

To say he fixed
Mrs. O'Farrell's TV set,

her water heater,

and now he's keeping
himself awake

by mending
the light cords.

You see, I told you.

You're just being
an alarmist about all this.

I probably didn't have
to stay here, either.

I'm not in any more danger
than Mrs. O'Farrell.

Yeah, you're probably right.

Who's this Johnson?

He called several times.

Maybe that's
what upsets me.

He's a real man
with a real assignment

for M-O-N-E-Y.

Money.

He's from the Great Pacific
Insurance Company,

and he wants you to fly

to Montreal.
Montreal?

Right now, maybe?

"Urgent," he said.

I'll bet it is.

Peggy, uh...

Great Pacific handled
the insurance

for the Harrison Company.

Now they want
to get rid of me, too.

Now, you call Johnson

and tell him
I've got an assignment.

And this time, I'm heading
in the right direction.

You Mannix?

Come in.

You're lucky to reach
me on a Saturday morning.

James Spencer.

Well, I could have
met you some place else.

Well, I'm on my way
to the airport.

I had to pick up
these papers anyway.
Make it fast.

All right.

I called because I was told

you're the horse's mouth
here at Harrison Bank & Trust.

The vice presidents sometimes

say that
a little differently.

At least, since the time
of the big robbery.

Hmm, we had a little
reorganization then.

Our public image wasn't
too good until I took over.

But, uh, what is it
you wanted to tell me

about our most
embarrassing withdrawal.

I understand the police
aren't much interested

in the Harrison heist anymore.

Which leads me to believe

that the insurance company
has stopped pressuring them.

They never developed
a single decent lead.

And they never turned up
any of the cash or securities.

Well, that stuff had
serial numbers, didn't it?

Of course.
It would've had to be fenced,

sold at a discount--
some other country perhaps.

But, no, not one
penny anywhere.

Look, Mannix my plane leaves
for Washington in 40 minutes.

How much reward
are you willing to pay

if I should
solve the case for you?

You know, I've
considered it my duty

to listen to every
crackpot with a theory.

You, Mannix, you're
supposed to be an expert.

Don't you realize
how many people

must have been involved
in that robbery?

What planning, intelligence,
split-second organization.

Oh, I don't care
who it is or even how.

Now, you interested in
getting your money back?

You, uh, you really
onto something?

Try me.

I'm flying back here early
Monday morning.

Why don't you meet
me here at 10:00.

But I've got
a few leads of my own,

so don't do anything
until we check.

All right.

Oh, about the reward...

Your usual rate plus expenses.

Plus five percent
of anything you recover, okay?

Fine.

All I needed was a client.

See you Monday morning.

her little boy

to his grandmother's.

She'll be back in a minute.

That's not soon enough.

The action's going to be now.

"Action"?

You know, Betsy,
the only reason for anybody

to be killed today-- two years
after the Harrison Heist--

is to keep them from interfering

with something
that's still going to happen.

That's why your husband
was killed

and then O'Farrell.

Joe, how many times
do I have to tell you?

My husband was
just too stupid

to be mixed up
in anything that big.

I told you,
all he did was race jalopies.

Jalopies, huh?

Well, maybe he was
only a driver,

getaway driver.

He knew something was coming up,

he blabbed it to O'Farrell,
they're both dead.

Now I'm sure
they must think I'm dead, too.

Jug Haskins.

sticking so close,

What?

This is all you people
from the heist

care about it, isn't it?

I was hoping it was the
other side, maybe Spencer

who was responsible
for the rough stuff,

but it isn't.

He's just a businessman
trying to make a deal.

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

Keep trying to forget
that it was you

O'Farrell came to
see and was killed.

Then, I came
to see you.

You had to call a
girlfriend to break a date.

When we got to your house, there
was a man waiting to kill me,

not you-- that's
right, isn't it?

Let me go.

What part did you
play in that robbery

two years go,
your computers?

Did you plot the whole
thing on those computers?

Listen.

There's somebody coming.

Just listen.

Yeah.

The five minutes are up.

It's probably Spencer
and his boys coming

to pick up his loot.

You didn't think
we'd be fools enough

to do this without somebody

covering, did you?

Now give me
that briefcase!

Sure.

Here.

Three... $300,000?

Five percent of the
rainbow, Mrs. O'Farrell.

Oh, less my, uh, services,

plus, uh, the damages to my car.

And there's a foreign lawyer

who's threatening
to sue me for assault.

I just can't understand
why you bothered.

Faith in the Irish, I guess.

Their women
are such lousy liars.

Liars?

My husband was no good,
Mr. Mannix.

It was just one crazy

pipe dream
after another.

Sure... oh, I'll be back
to pick you up, later.

Uh, Mr. Spencer
will have checks

waiting in his office.

Mr. Mannix?

Who was it?

Who was the dirty thing that
drove the car that killed him?

It was just, uh...

some woman driver.

That's all.

Slob.
