Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:14,998 --> 00:00:16,732
Terry, honey, fill in for me.
2
00:00:16,767 --> 00:00:18,534
I have to make a phone call.
3
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,122
C-L-A-M-A-N.
4
00:00:41,158 --> 00:00:43,291
Claman! Yay!
5
00:00:43,327 --> 00:00:46,428
No, no, no, now listen, girls,
6
00:00:46,464 --> 00:00:48,374
remember, most of
these delegates are men.
7
00:00:48,398 --> 00:00:51,066
Now you've got to
keep it all moving.
8
00:00:51,101 --> 00:00:54,386
C-C... Okay, now let's go.
9
00:00:54,421 --> 00:01:00,375
C-L-A-M-...
- A-N.
10
00:01:00,410 --> 00:01:01,643
Claman!
11
00:01:01,678 --> 00:01:03,911
Yay!
12
00:01:03,947 --> 00:01:05,413
Hello.
13
00:01:05,449 --> 00:01:07,649
No, Mr. Claman isn't
due for about 20 minutes,
14
00:01:07,684 --> 00:01:09,496
Look, this is a matter
of life and death.
15
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,920
Well, I'll see if I can
get through to his suite.
16
00:01:11,956 --> 00:01:13,254
Hang on, please.
17
00:01:13,290 --> 00:01:15,323
Let's hear it, girls, come on.
18
00:01:15,359 --> 00:01:19,895
C-L-A-M-A-N.
19
00:01:19,930 --> 00:01:20,913
Claman!
20
00:01:20,948 --> 00:01:23,448
"and once elected,
21
00:01:23,483 --> 00:01:25,362
"I promise to place
the government
22
00:01:25,386 --> 00:01:27,330
back into the hands
of the people..."
23
00:01:27,354 --> 00:01:28,753
Oh, come off it, Charlie.
24
00:01:28,789 --> 00:01:30,800
The people's ignorance of
what goes on in government
25
00:01:30,824 --> 00:01:33,270
is what got them into
this fix in the first place.
26
00:01:33,294 --> 00:01:34,737
Now you put on
your brass knuckles
27
00:01:34,761 --> 00:01:36,639
and tell them what
I'm really going to do
28
00:01:36,663 --> 00:01:38,074
is go after the
special interests,
29
00:01:38,098 --> 00:01:39,664
wipe out corruption.
30
00:01:39,699 --> 00:01:41,733
Ye-Yeah, yeah, I heard you.
31
00:01:41,768 --> 00:01:44,536
But I happen to be managing
a strange duck with principles,
32
00:01:44,571 --> 00:01:46,905
so I can't promise miracles.
33
00:01:46,941 --> 00:01:49,207
Look, if Rolley
delivers his delegation,
34
00:01:49,243 --> 00:01:51,203
we'll see that he
gets a fair deal.
35
00:01:53,247 --> 00:01:55,513
I just heard what you
want in that speech.
36
00:01:55,549 --> 00:01:57,994
So what says my trusted aide?
37
00:01:58,018 --> 00:01:59,784
You sound like a holy man.
38
00:01:59,820 --> 00:02:01,597
Come on down.
39
00:02:01,621 --> 00:02:02,799
I'll do my best.
40
00:02:07,527 --> 00:02:10,546
Jim, I think you're just fine.
41
00:02:10,581 --> 00:02:13,749
Oh, please, Rita.
42
00:02:13,784 --> 00:02:15,695
I don't think I can
stand so much praise
43
00:02:15,719 --> 00:02:18,971
this early in the afternoon,
especially from my wife.
44
00:02:19,006 --> 00:02:21,673
You're going to
win the nomination.
45
00:02:21,708 --> 00:02:23,308
I feel it in my bones.
46
00:02:23,343 --> 00:02:26,061
Do you want to
talk to a constituent?
47
00:02:26,096 --> 00:02:27,913
He says it's life or death.
48
00:02:31,751 --> 00:02:33,852
Hello. This is Jim Claman.
49
00:02:33,887 --> 00:02:36,104
Sorry to break in
on your busy day.
50
00:02:36,139 --> 00:02:37,139
Who is this?
51
00:02:37,173 --> 00:02:38,201
That's not important.
52
00:02:38,225 --> 00:02:40,392
What I've got is...
53
00:02:40,427 --> 00:02:42,455
It could get you the
nomination, Mr. Claman,
54
00:02:42,479 --> 00:02:45,164
or finish you for good. What?
55
00:02:45,199 --> 00:02:48,167
I have documented evidence
obtained three days ago
56
00:02:48,202 --> 00:02:50,269
while you were
on a speaking tour.
57
00:02:50,304 --> 00:02:52,237
If it gets into the wrong hands,
58
00:02:52,273 --> 00:02:54,923
it can blast your campaign
into the next century.
59
00:02:54,958 --> 00:02:56,257
Who are you?
60
00:02:56,293 --> 00:02:57,459
We'll meet soon enough.
61
00:02:57,494 --> 00:03:00,929
5:00 this afternoon
up on Corona Mesa.
62
00:03:00,965 --> 00:03:03,015
It's private there.
No one to see you.
63
00:03:03,050 --> 00:03:06,935
Oh, and Mr. Claman, if you
really want to be governor,
64
00:03:06,970 --> 00:03:09,270
you just can't
afford not to show.
65
00:03:49,045 --> 00:03:50,978
♪ ♪
66
00:05:56,623 --> 00:05:58,623
Hey, Jim.
67
00:05:58,658 --> 00:06:00,698
Who the devil are you?
The name is Mannix.
68
00:06:00,728 --> 00:06:02,027
I want to see Jim Claman.
69
00:06:02,062 --> 00:06:04,196
About what? Murder.
70
00:06:04,231 --> 00:06:05,908
Boy, we've had
some real ding-a-lings
71
00:06:05,932 --> 00:06:07,733
at this convention,
but you ring the bell.
72
00:06:07,768 --> 00:06:09,645
Now please leave
the way you came in.
73
00:06:09,669 --> 00:06:10,830
Just a minute, Walt.
74
00:06:10,854 --> 00:06:12,637
Hello, Mannix.
75
00:06:14,408 --> 00:06:16,324
You haven't changed much.
76
00:06:17,878 --> 00:06:21,463
I'm the same man, except
for the added scar tissue
77
00:06:21,498 --> 00:06:23,548
I picked up from our
previous meeting last year.
78
00:06:23,583 --> 00:06:27,385
Now let's see that
was Superior Court 17
79
00:06:27,421 --> 00:06:29,387
in your fair state.
80
00:06:29,423 --> 00:06:32,307
Oh, yes, the man with the
big chips on his shoulders.
81
00:06:32,342 --> 00:06:33,775
When you were district attorney,
82
00:06:33,811 --> 00:06:35,855
you got your kicks pushing
around private detectives,
83
00:06:35,879 --> 00:06:38,746
I had some bad experiences.
84
00:06:38,781 --> 00:06:41,733
I felt it necessary at the
time to lean a little hard.
85
00:06:41,768 --> 00:06:43,684
Maybe this time you
leaned a little too hard.
86
00:06:46,206 --> 00:06:48,766
Is that your way of
getting back to murder?
87
00:06:50,026 --> 00:06:53,995
Just exactly who is it I'm
supposed to have killed, Mannix?
88
00:06:54,030 --> 00:06:55,675
Maybe nobody.
89
00:06:55,699 --> 00:06:57,877
But you did talk
to Richard Newley
90
00:06:57,901 --> 00:06:59,745
just before somebody killed him.
91
00:06:59,769 --> 00:07:01,503
Richard Newley?
92
00:07:01,538 --> 00:07:03,505
His wife hired me.
93
00:07:03,540 --> 00:07:04,973
She said he talked to her
94
00:07:05,008 --> 00:07:07,759
about coming into a
sudden inheritance.
95
00:07:07,794 --> 00:07:09,678
She said he called you.
96
00:07:09,713 --> 00:07:12,280
You did talk to him?
97
00:07:12,315 --> 00:07:14,182
That was a crank call, Mannix.
98
00:07:14,217 --> 00:07:15,183
Nothing more.
99
00:07:15,218 --> 00:07:17,552
Except this crank
turned up dead.
100
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:22,239
Come on, Walt.
101
00:07:25,545 --> 00:07:27,995
I don't believe we've
been introduced.
102
00:07:28,031 --> 00:07:29,397
Let's keep it that way.
103
00:07:29,432 --> 00:07:33,101
The morning Herald had
it down as Walter Webb...
104
00:07:33,136 --> 00:07:35,569
Attorney and confidential
aide to Jim Claman.
105
00:07:35,605 --> 00:07:37,989
Just a small item
underneath a picture of you
106
00:07:38,024 --> 00:07:40,436
flying Claman back from a
speaking tour by helicopter.
107
00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:41,543
So?
108
00:07:41,578 --> 00:07:43,611
Maybe just coincidence,
109
00:07:43,647 --> 00:07:46,614
but a helicopter was
spotted flying around up there
110
00:07:46,650 --> 00:07:48,083
where Newley was killed.
111
00:07:48,118 --> 00:07:51,919
Let me spell this out for
you, Mannix, very clearly.
112
00:07:51,955 --> 00:07:53,649
Any smears directed
at Jim Claman
113
00:07:53,673 --> 00:07:55,557
will have to get by me first,
114
00:07:55,592 --> 00:07:57,893
and I don't like dirt.
115
00:07:57,928 --> 00:07:59,327
Nice meeting you.
116
00:08:38,418 --> 00:08:41,386
Excuse me, Mike Raitt
still own this place?
117
00:08:41,421 --> 00:08:42,832
And everything else in sight.
118
00:08:42,856 --> 00:08:44,456
Where can I find him?
119
00:08:44,491 --> 00:08:45,990
You won't need radar.
120
00:08:46,025 --> 00:08:47,091
Thanks.
121
00:08:47,126 --> 00:08:49,160
Wasn't he a pistol?
122
00:08:49,195 --> 00:08:51,028
Mr. Raitt? Yeah.
123
00:08:51,064 --> 00:08:53,509
I wonder if I can talk
to you for a minute.
124
00:08:53,533 --> 00:08:56,000
Well, just be my guest, boy.
125
00:08:56,035 --> 00:08:59,471
Hey, Skip, you look familiar.
126
00:08:59,506 --> 00:09:01,856
Ain't I seen you
someplace before?
127
00:09:01,891 --> 00:09:03,325
In a way.
128
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,305
I was present when you
were back in California,
129
00:09:05,329 --> 00:09:07,511
testifying before the
rackets committee.
130
00:09:09,749 --> 00:09:12,584
I'll be right with you, fellas.
131
00:09:12,619 --> 00:09:15,253
Hey, now, wasn't
that some go-round?
132
00:09:15,288 --> 00:09:17,622
They never laid a glove
on me now, did they, Skip?
133
00:09:17,657 --> 00:09:19,557
The name is Mannix.
134
00:09:19,593 --> 00:09:21,020
I'm a private
investigator. Uh-huh.
135
00:09:21,044 --> 00:09:23,677
I'm looking into the death
of one of your employees.
136
00:09:23,713 --> 00:09:25,191
Richard Newley? Right.
137
00:09:25,215 --> 00:09:28,567
Now I ask you, wasn't that a
crying shame about that boy?
138
00:09:28,602 --> 00:09:29,768
It sure was.
139
00:09:29,803 --> 00:09:31,347
Thought maybe you
could tell me something
140
00:09:31,371 --> 00:09:33,833
about him, the people that knew
him, you know, things like that.
141
00:09:33,857 --> 00:09:35,389
I'm sorry, Skip.
142
00:09:35,425 --> 00:09:38,726
You know I got a 173
employees here at this hotel,
143
00:09:38,761 --> 00:09:42,697
and Newley was, well, just a
Social Security number on the payroll.
144
00:09:42,732 --> 00:09:45,933
I couldn't tell you one
single thing about him.
145
00:09:45,968 --> 00:09:47,335
Well, thanks anyway.
146
00:09:47,370 --> 00:09:48,837
Well, any time.
147
00:09:49,906 --> 00:09:51,038
Say...
148
00:09:52,125 --> 00:09:53,853
what are you looking for anyhow?
149
00:09:53,877 --> 00:09:55,042
Whoever killed him.
150
00:09:56,129 --> 00:09:57,312
Oh.
151
00:09:59,916 --> 00:10:03,168
Boys, like I said...
152
00:10:04,554 --> 00:10:05,986
Second question...
153
00:10:06,022 --> 00:10:09,624
Can you tell me who in the hotel
was close to Richard Newley?
154
00:10:09,659 --> 00:10:11,654
Take away the women
guests and there was just one.
155
00:10:11,678 --> 00:10:12,978
Who?
156
00:10:13,013 --> 00:10:14,062
Me.
157
00:10:14,097 --> 00:10:16,531
Do you mind telling me
158
00:10:16,566 --> 00:10:18,699
a little something about him?
159
00:10:18,735 --> 00:10:20,402
Why should I?
160
00:10:20,437 --> 00:10:22,470
I wonder if you can change a 20.
161
00:10:22,506 --> 00:10:24,605
I've got to make a phone call.
162
00:10:24,641 --> 00:10:26,041
All I need is a dime.
163
00:10:28,178 --> 00:10:30,629
Mister... Mannix.
164
00:10:30,664 --> 00:10:32,563
You're doing business
165
00:10:32,599 --> 00:10:34,465
with the biggest mouth in town.
166
00:10:34,501 --> 00:10:35,667
How can I help you?
167
00:10:35,702 --> 00:10:36,846
Do you know
anything about Newley
168
00:10:36,870 --> 00:10:38,136
that the police didn't know?
169
00:10:38,171 --> 00:10:41,423
Nope, except maybe you
ought to check his apartment.
170
00:10:41,458 --> 00:10:43,269
He didn't live
here in the hotel?
171
00:10:43,293 --> 00:10:44,904
No, that's what he
wanted everybody to think.
172
00:10:44,928 --> 00:10:45,988
He had this apartment
173
00:10:46,012 --> 00:10:48,880
over on Tenth and
Mason, Number six.
174
00:10:48,915 --> 00:10:51,816
I guess being a tennis pro is a
pretty demanding line of work.
175
00:10:51,851 --> 00:10:53,951
Just in case his death
wasn't an accident,
176
00:10:53,986 --> 00:10:56,521
you got any idea who might
have a motive to kill him?
177
00:10:56,556 --> 00:10:58,990
Yeah. Me.
178
00:10:59,026 --> 00:11:00,158
Motive?
179
00:11:00,193 --> 00:11:01,592
Pure envy.
180
00:11:09,819 --> 00:11:12,086
Mr. Mannix.
181
00:11:14,257 --> 00:11:16,224
I'm Claire Hanley.
182
00:11:16,259 --> 00:11:18,159
You say that like it
should mean something.
183
00:11:18,194 --> 00:11:20,539
Not unless you want to
get your name in the papers.
184
00:11:20,563 --> 00:11:23,664
I happen to own six of them all
the way from here to California.
185
00:11:23,699 --> 00:11:24,910
The Hanley chain.
186
00:11:24,934 --> 00:11:26,267
After my husband, Eric.
187
00:11:26,302 --> 00:11:28,647
And we have something
to discuss? Richard Newley.
188
00:11:28,671 --> 00:11:30,471
May I drop you someplace?
189
00:11:38,047 --> 00:11:40,781
It didn't take Jim Claman
long to call in the reserves.
190
00:11:49,025 --> 00:11:51,053
What makes you think
Jim Claman called me?
191
00:11:51,077 --> 00:11:53,878
Who else? Mike Raitt?
192
00:11:53,914 --> 00:11:55,613
You don't look like the type
193
00:11:55,649 --> 00:11:57,510
who'd trade confidences
with tarantulas.
194
00:11:59,235 --> 00:12:01,536
That's very discerning.
195
00:12:01,571 --> 00:12:03,583
Well, actually, it was
Jim Claman's aide
196
00:12:03,607 --> 00:12:05,340
who called me, Walter Webb.
197
00:12:05,375 --> 00:12:10,010
And you're the big, powerful
paper lady who's to scare me off.
198
00:12:10,046 --> 00:12:12,480
I don't know that I'd say
199
00:12:12,515 --> 00:12:14,860
it was anything
quite that dramatic.
200
00:12:14,884 --> 00:12:18,686
Well, I just felt you could
possibly be reasoned with.
201
00:12:18,721 --> 00:12:22,190
We have an excellent police
force in this city, Mr. Mannix,
202
00:12:22,225 --> 00:12:23,757
Excellent.
203
00:12:23,793 --> 00:12:26,093
They made a
thorough investigation,
204
00:12:26,128 --> 00:12:28,040
much more thoroughly
than you could,
205
00:12:28,064 --> 00:12:31,583
and they concluded Richard
Newley's death was due
206
00:12:31,618 --> 00:12:33,150
to an accidental fall.
207
00:12:33,186 --> 00:12:36,087
Well, then the worst that could
happen is, I waste my time.
208
00:12:36,122 --> 00:12:38,355
And possibly start a
whispering campaign
209
00:12:38,391 --> 00:12:41,709
that could destroy a man
this state sorely needs.
210
00:12:41,744 --> 00:12:44,445
Well, there's no
reason to be concerned.
211
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,560
Unless there's something
to whisper about.
212
00:12:56,426 --> 00:12:58,092
Thanks for the ride.
213
00:12:58,127 --> 00:13:00,027
It's not over yet.
214
00:15:07,974 --> 00:15:09,668
He ought to be locked up!
215
00:15:09,692 --> 00:15:10,936
He almost ran me down.
216
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,838
Then he stumbled into
the alley and passed out.
217
00:15:12,862 --> 00:15:15,422
You can see how drunk he is!
218
00:15:22,338 --> 00:15:24,099
One dead bottle of red-eye
219
00:15:24,123 --> 00:15:25,868
and loads of it on your breath.
220
00:15:25,892 --> 00:15:27,524
Now look, Webb, I...
221
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:28,938
No, no. Mannix, you look.
222
00:15:28,962 --> 00:15:30,672
I've been around
the law for years.
223
00:15:30,696 --> 00:15:32,858
Don't insult my intelligence
by yelling "frame."
224
00:15:32,882 --> 00:15:34,915
Looks like you've got a point.
225
00:15:34,951 --> 00:15:37,018
Maybe, uh, you saw to it, huh?
226
00:15:37,053 --> 00:15:38,719
Book him.
227
00:15:40,140 --> 00:15:42,857
The only place I'm going
is to see Jim Claman.
228
00:15:42,892 --> 00:15:45,204
You really are a
ding-a-ling, aren't-you?
229
00:15:45,228 --> 00:15:46,661
That sign that says you're smart
230
00:15:46,696 --> 00:15:49,530
can get tarnished if you
let them lock me up, Webb.
231
00:15:49,566 --> 00:15:52,366
What I know now can
carry awfully far in a local jail.
232
00:15:55,104 --> 00:15:56,384
I'll handle it.
233
00:16:04,781 --> 00:16:07,949
What's your feeling about
the need for a sales tax rise
234
00:16:07,984 --> 00:16:10,151
to help balance the budget?
235
00:16:10,186 --> 00:16:14,155
It takes a little more breath
to say ”efficiency” than it does
236
00:16:14,190 --> 00:16:16,958
to say ”money,”
but it costs less.
237
00:16:16,993 --> 00:16:18,792
Can I see you alone
for a minute, Jim?
238
00:16:22,682 --> 00:16:23,931
Excuse me, gentlemen.
239
00:16:23,966 --> 00:16:25,633
Sure.
240
00:16:25,668 --> 00:16:27,334
Sorry, boys, that's
all for the day.
241
00:16:53,579 --> 00:16:55,012
Our state doesn't seem
242
00:16:55,048 --> 00:16:57,681
to be wearing too well
on you, Mr. Mannix.
243
00:16:57,716 --> 00:17:01,135
I found you much more
attractive at our last meeting.
244
00:17:01,170 --> 00:17:04,271
I just can't kick the habit of
getting that mussed-up look
245
00:17:04,306 --> 00:17:06,284
when I've been mugged,
dragged into an alley
246
00:17:06,308 --> 00:17:07,953
and had liquor
poured down my throat.
247
00:17:07,977 --> 00:17:10,611
All of which I'm
sure is news to you.
248
00:17:10,646 --> 00:17:11,945
No.
249
00:17:11,981 --> 00:17:15,082
Walter Webb called in
to say they'd found you.
250
00:17:16,819 --> 00:17:18,870
Any idea how he
knew where to look?
251
00:17:18,905 --> 00:17:22,639
I'm afraid that was my doing.
252
00:17:22,675 --> 00:17:25,660
An anonymous phone call
came into the newspaper.
253
00:17:25,695 --> 00:17:27,161
Oh, now, please.
254
00:17:27,196 --> 00:17:28,641
Please don't be don't be angry
255
00:17:28,665 --> 00:17:30,426
with me for taking sides.
256
00:17:30,450 --> 00:17:32,967
Jim Claman is my man...
257
00:17:33,002 --> 00:17:35,064
Politically speaking, that is.
258
00:17:35,088 --> 00:17:40,991
Of course, that does leave
me a great deal of elbow room.
259
00:17:41,027 --> 00:17:42,660
Shall we say my house?
260
00:17:42,695 --> 00:17:44,662
8:00 this evening?
261
00:17:44,697 --> 00:17:46,898
Last one at the
end of Tower Road.
262
00:17:46,933 --> 00:17:47,933
8:00, then.
263
00:17:50,570 --> 00:17:52,470
You won't find it dull.
264
00:18:14,644 --> 00:18:15,810
All right, Mannix.
265
00:18:15,845 --> 00:18:18,679
Exactly what incriminating words
266
00:18:18,715 --> 00:18:22,483
were you going to bark through
the halls of our local bastille?
267
00:18:22,519 --> 00:18:24,296
Well, it seems
somebody sapped me
268
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,031
while I was in Richard
Newley's apartment...
269
00:18:26,055 --> 00:18:28,288
Not before I found a notebook.
270
00:18:28,324 --> 00:18:30,808
Newley had scribbled down
some IOUs. Now, to me,
271
00:18:30,843 --> 00:18:32,321
that turned on a
couple of lights.
272
00:18:32,345 --> 00:18:33,694
Such as?
273
00:18:33,729 --> 00:18:35,307
Newley had planned
on making a bundle
274
00:18:35,331 --> 00:18:37,298
from some business
dealing with you.
275
00:18:37,333 --> 00:18:39,166
Newley has these IOUs.
276
00:18:39,202 --> 00:18:40,485
Newley turns up dead.
277
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,654
So I am in hock to someone
over a gambling debt,
278
00:18:43,690 --> 00:18:46,791
and Newley was going to
cash in on the scandal...?
279
00:18:46,826 --> 00:18:48,576
The thought occurred to me.
280
00:18:48,611 --> 00:18:51,178
You know, Mannix,
in our last go-around,
281
00:18:51,213 --> 00:18:53,113
I thought you were
just hardheaded,
282
00:18:53,148 --> 00:18:54,999
but if you thought
you heard thunder
283
00:18:55,034 --> 00:18:56,667
the last time we locked horns,
284
00:18:56,703 --> 00:18:58,302
you'd better just wait awhile.
285
00:18:58,337 --> 00:19:00,604
Within five minutes,
you won't be able
286
00:19:00,639 --> 00:19:02,890
to buy a dog
license in this state.
287
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,260
Oh, one more thing, Claman.
288
00:19:06,296 --> 00:19:08,595
There was a phone number
in Newley's notebook.
289
00:19:08,631 --> 00:19:09,931
It happens to match the one
290
00:19:09,966 --> 00:19:11,933
on your telephone.
291
00:19:11,968 --> 00:19:13,612
Yes, sirree, this
is sure gonna be
292
00:19:13,636 --> 00:19:15,769
an interesting romp
around the maypole.
293
00:19:24,847 --> 00:19:27,359
I take it Jim Claman's
being true to his word.
294
00:19:27,383 --> 00:19:28,594
Thank you, John. That'll be all.
295
00:19:28,618 --> 00:19:29,828
Yeah. From the cooperation I got
296
00:19:29,852 --> 00:19:31,463
from the D.A.'s office
and police department,
297
00:19:31,487 --> 00:19:33,086
my name might as
well have been Hitler.
298
00:19:34,123 --> 00:19:35,089
Splendid.
299
00:19:35,124 --> 00:19:36,958
I thought you'd see it that way.
300
00:19:36,993 --> 00:19:39,961
As I told you, I want Jim Claman
301
00:19:39,996 --> 00:19:41,857
as the next
governor of this state,
302
00:19:41,881 --> 00:19:44,309
and I want it badly enough that,
303
00:19:44,333 --> 00:19:47,301
if I have to, I will
take off my silk gloves
304
00:19:47,336 --> 00:19:50,637
and fight like a man...
Any kind of man.
305
00:19:50,673 --> 00:19:52,840
Hmm. There you
go scaring me again.
306
00:19:52,875 --> 00:19:54,308
On the contrary.
307
00:19:54,343 --> 00:19:57,644
Fighting you is the
last thing I have in mind.
308
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,648
I, uh... I, um... I
thought I might help you
309
00:20:01,684 --> 00:20:04,035
make a turn in
the right direction.
310
00:20:04,070 --> 00:20:07,338
On occasion, I, I had
Richard Newley over here
311
00:20:07,373 --> 00:20:08,717
to give me tennis lessons.
312
00:20:08,741 --> 00:20:11,542
My backhand needs work.
313
00:20:11,578 --> 00:20:13,411
So does my forehand.
314
00:20:13,446 --> 00:20:16,246
Naturally, I learned
quite a bit about him.
315
00:20:16,282 --> 00:20:17,632
Such as?
316
00:20:17,667 --> 00:20:21,335
Such as those gambling debts
you discovered in his notebook.
317
00:20:21,370 --> 00:20:24,005
They had nothing whatsoever
to do with Jim Claman.
318
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,008
They were his
losses... Newley's losses
319
00:20:27,043 --> 00:20:31,145
to that rogue of the
rackets, Big Mike Raitt.
320
00:20:31,180 --> 00:20:33,598
Uh... Newley told you that?
321
00:20:33,633 --> 00:20:37,034
Precisely. And for the
very best of reasons.
322
00:20:37,070 --> 00:20:40,203
He wanted me to lend him
the money to pay the debt off.
323
00:20:43,409 --> 00:20:46,577
It seems that jolly
Mike, the innkeeper,
324
00:20:46,612 --> 00:20:49,413
might not be quite
so jolly as a creditor.
325
00:20:49,448 --> 00:20:53,167
So you, uh... gave
him the money?
326
00:20:53,202 --> 00:20:57,554
I played tennis with
Richard, not house.
327
00:21:01,894 --> 00:21:04,861
Well, now that I've
done my good deed
328
00:21:04,897 --> 00:21:07,048
for country and man,
329
00:21:07,083 --> 00:21:09,983
why don't we just make
ourselves comfortable
330
00:21:10,019 --> 00:21:12,653
and watch the grass grow, hmm?
331
00:21:16,025 --> 00:21:17,291
Excuse me.
332
00:21:19,695 --> 00:21:20,827
Yes?
333
00:21:23,899 --> 00:21:26,534
One moment, please.
334
00:21:26,569 --> 00:21:27,734
It's for you.
335
00:21:27,770 --> 00:21:29,002
Oh.
336
00:21:29,038 --> 00:21:30,154
Hello.
337
00:21:30,189 --> 00:21:32,890
This is the hotel clerk.
338
00:21:32,925 --> 00:21:34,219
You left this number
for messages.
339
00:21:34,243 --> 00:21:37,344
Look, I gotta see
you now. It's urgent.
340
00:21:37,379 --> 00:21:38,679
Where?
341
00:21:38,715 --> 00:21:40,314
Service garage at the hotel.
342
00:22:13,166 --> 00:22:14,576
Sneaking up on
people in the dark
343
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,000
can get you a lot of trouble.
344
00:22:16,035 --> 00:22:17,234
Any more trouble I get
345
00:22:17,269 --> 00:22:18,668
is gonna have to stand in line.
346
00:22:18,704 --> 00:22:19,836
Come on, get in here.
347
00:22:30,382 --> 00:22:33,017
Big Mike fired me today. Why?
348
00:22:33,052 --> 00:22:35,030
Found out I gave you
Newley's apartment address.
349
00:22:35,054 --> 00:22:36,298
That leaves me in need
350
00:22:36,322 --> 00:22:37,649
of getting-out-of-town
money, so, uh...
351
00:22:37,673 --> 00:22:39,873
how'd you like to buy the
rest of my merchandise?
352
00:22:44,897 --> 00:22:47,732
$50? I, I don't have change.
353
00:22:47,767 --> 00:22:49,583
Keep the dime.
354
00:22:51,186 --> 00:22:52,998
Claire Hanley, who
latched on to you in the hotel
355
00:22:53,022 --> 00:22:54,466
this afternoon... What
did she have to say
356
00:22:54,490 --> 00:22:55,456
about her and Newley?
357
00:22:55,491 --> 00:22:56,457
Oh, just that he
358
00:22:56,492 --> 00:22:57,825
taught her tennis now and then.
359
00:22:57,860 --> 00:22:59,160
There something else?
360
00:22:59,195 --> 00:23:00,827
Yeah, the whole nine yards.
361
00:23:00,863 --> 00:23:03,047
Newley spent a lot
of time at her place.
362
00:23:03,082 --> 00:23:04,692
Since he wasn't exactly
in Who's Who, he...
363
00:23:04,716 --> 00:23:06,194
he planned to make her pay
364
00:23:06,218 --> 00:23:08,063
for keeping him coming
through the back door.
365
00:23:08,087 --> 00:23:09,087
Anything else?
366
00:23:09,121 --> 00:23:10,320
Mm-hmm.
367
00:23:10,355 --> 00:23:12,990
The hotel helicopter
made an unscheduled flight
368
00:23:13,025 --> 00:23:14,945
the day Newley
fell off the cliff.
369
00:23:19,882 --> 00:23:24,651
That helicopter's to haul our
VIP guests around with, and...
370
00:23:24,686 --> 00:23:27,988
I fired that clerk 'cause
he had a big mouth.
371
00:23:28,023 --> 00:23:30,001
If there's anything
that a hotel don't need,
372
00:23:30,025 --> 00:23:33,327
it's a "poppin' off" room clerk.
373
00:23:33,362 --> 00:23:36,330
Well, let's not overlook
the dead man, Raitt.
374
00:23:36,365 --> 00:23:37,998
He owed you a lot
of gambling money.
375
00:23:38,033 --> 00:23:39,950
And in murder, that can
be defined as motive.
376
00:23:39,985 --> 00:23:43,337
I suppose you're gonna go
to the police with that, huh?
377
00:23:43,372 --> 00:23:46,207
I haven't decided yet,
but you got to admit,
378
00:23:46,242 --> 00:23:48,809
it's even money that they'd
find that pretty interesting.
379
00:23:50,379 --> 00:23:53,214
Mannix, I sure
hope that you like
380
00:23:53,249 --> 00:23:55,349
this little old state of ours,
381
00:23:55,384 --> 00:23:57,029
'cause it's pretty near a cinch
382
00:23:57,053 --> 00:23:58,973
that you're gonna
get buried in it.
383
00:24:00,723 --> 00:24:02,356
Mannix?
384
00:24:05,060 --> 00:24:06,960
You sure are a caution.
385
00:24:06,996 --> 00:24:08,640
You gotta learn to relax,
386
00:24:08,664 --> 00:24:10,842
know when people's
a-kidding you.
387
00:24:10,866 --> 00:24:12,699
Yeah, I guess it
was pretty silly of me
388
00:24:12,735 --> 00:24:13,901
to take you seriously.
389
00:24:13,936 --> 00:24:15,435
I guess it had to do
390
00:24:15,470 --> 00:24:17,983
with all that gangster stuff I
keep reading in the papers.
391
00:24:18,007 --> 00:24:20,640
Now you got the right idea.
392
00:24:20,675 --> 00:24:21,975
Let's just sit down
393
00:24:22,011 --> 00:24:23,777
and have ourselves
a little old talk.
394
00:24:23,812 --> 00:24:24,978
You did come up here
395
00:24:25,014 --> 00:24:27,314
to do some horse trading,
now, didn't you, boy?
396
00:24:27,349 --> 00:24:30,317
You know how we private
detectives are, Mike.
397
00:24:30,352 --> 00:24:31,851
Like to follow hot leads.
398
00:24:31,887 --> 00:24:33,331
Since you're so
interested in the case,
399
00:24:33,355 --> 00:24:35,533
I thought you might
slip me a goodie or two.
400
00:24:35,557 --> 00:24:38,125
I suppose that, uh...
401
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,228
well, you'd be willing
to forget about...
402
00:24:41,263 --> 00:24:43,063
the police and...
403
00:24:43,099 --> 00:24:45,432
and my IOUs and
Newley's and everything.
404
00:24:45,467 --> 00:24:49,904
Well, now that depends on
how well you hold my interest.
405
00:24:49,939 --> 00:24:52,907
Did you ever hear of the
Coronet Trucking Company?
406
00:24:52,942 --> 00:24:55,776
Yeah. It's a business front for
laying off underworld money.
407
00:24:55,811 --> 00:24:57,544
About five years ago,
408
00:24:57,580 --> 00:25:00,080
Jim Claman represented
Coronet Trucking
409
00:25:00,115 --> 00:25:02,500
while he was a partner
in one of the local
410
00:25:02,535 --> 00:25:03,767
law firms here in town.
411
00:25:03,803 --> 00:25:05,503
Now, isn't it just possible
412
00:25:05,538 --> 00:25:08,038
that Claman didn't know
Coronet Trucking was a front?
413
00:25:08,073 --> 00:25:10,841
Maybe you're right,
but just the same,
414
00:25:10,876 --> 00:25:13,510
it's a pretty fair bet,
that, innocent or not,
415
00:25:13,546 --> 00:25:14,978
he might have signed his name
416
00:25:15,014 --> 00:25:17,097
to some mighty
incriminating documents.
417
00:25:17,132 --> 00:25:18,832
I'll tell you one thing.
418
00:25:18,867 --> 00:25:20,467
Something like that'd sure run
419
00:25:20,502 --> 00:25:23,470
some awful deep ruts in
Claman's campaign for governor.
420
00:25:26,892 --> 00:25:30,277
Skip, I do believe
421
00:25:30,312 --> 00:25:32,279
I've captured your interest.
422
00:25:36,652 --> 00:25:38,152
How does it look, Charlie?
423
00:25:38,187 --> 00:25:40,520
Gentlemen of the press
are smelling fresh meat.
424
00:25:40,556 --> 00:25:42,823
Thanks, Charlie.
425
00:25:42,858 --> 00:25:46,360
Well, there's nothing
definite, but, uh...
426
00:25:46,395 --> 00:25:49,797
little innuendos, like...
427
00:25:49,832 --> 00:25:52,499
why a private investigator's
asking so many questions
428
00:25:52,534 --> 00:25:54,218
about a candidate for governor.
429
00:25:54,253 --> 00:25:56,720
It's time we leaned
on Mannix, Jim, hard.
430
00:25:56,755 --> 00:25:57,983
No. No.
431
00:25:58,007 --> 00:25:59,073
I want to think about it.
432
00:25:59,108 --> 00:26:00,718
You go down to the
press section right now
433
00:26:00,742 --> 00:26:02,542
and see what you can
do to spike these rumors.
434
00:26:12,187 --> 00:26:14,187
You know...
435
00:26:14,223 --> 00:26:17,942
under the right conditions,
a lady can get a very clear
436
00:26:17,977 --> 00:26:20,537
perspective on politics.
437
00:26:21,930 --> 00:26:24,698
Conclusion: It stinks.
438
00:26:24,733 --> 00:26:27,868
Please, Rita, just
a moment, dear.
439
00:26:27,903 --> 00:26:30,237
Notice, Jim?
440
00:26:30,272 --> 00:26:32,339
I'm wearing something new.
441
00:26:35,210 --> 00:26:36,994
Jim?
442
00:26:39,515 --> 00:26:42,383
Oh, yes, I've seen
that gown before, dear.
443
00:26:42,418 --> 00:26:43,884
It's lovely.
444
00:26:43,919 --> 00:26:46,465
I'm talking about
my new accessory.
445
00:26:46,489 --> 00:26:48,733
This little glass of sunshine.
446
00:26:48,757 --> 00:26:50,023
Remember, Jim?
447
00:26:50,058 --> 00:26:52,759
I never touched it before.
448
00:26:52,794 --> 00:26:54,778
Except on our wedding night,
449
00:26:54,813 --> 00:26:57,359
when you bought that
magnum of champagne.
450
00:26:57,383 --> 00:27:01,201
We made three toasts... to us.
451
00:27:01,236 --> 00:27:04,204
Then the next thing I
remember, it was morning.
452
00:27:04,239 --> 00:27:06,406
Of course I remember, darling.
453
00:27:06,441 --> 00:27:09,126
But do we have to
talk about it now?
454
00:27:09,161 --> 00:27:11,629
There you were, the
brilliant young lawyer,
455
00:27:11,664 --> 00:27:13,008
briefcase brimming
with Blackstone,
456
00:27:13,032 --> 00:27:15,633
ready to take me
off to glory land.
457
00:27:15,668 --> 00:27:18,836
And here we are now
ready to knock on the gate.
458
00:27:18,871 --> 00:27:21,088
But it's strange, Jim.
459
00:27:21,123 --> 00:27:23,523
It's as though I were
somebody else...
460
00:27:23,559 --> 00:27:26,727
as though I'd lost you
somewhere back in those years.
461
00:27:28,046 --> 00:27:31,515
Everything is gonna
be just fine, darling.
462
00:27:31,550 --> 00:27:34,935
You've just contracted a
case of campaign nerves.
463
00:27:34,970 --> 00:27:36,520
Why don't you lie down.
464
00:27:36,555 --> 00:27:38,989
I'll see you at dinner?
465
00:27:43,145 --> 00:27:44,956
Look, boys,
there's nothing to it.
466
00:27:44,980 --> 00:27:47,947
Mannix and Jim Claman
had a run-in a few years ago,
467
00:27:47,983 --> 00:27:49,316
but it's all settled.
468
00:27:49,351 --> 00:27:50,962
Mannix is practically on a plane
469
00:27:50,986 --> 00:27:53,954
back to California.
470
00:27:53,989 --> 00:27:57,190
Your words are smooth,
Walt, but your timing is lousy.
471
00:27:57,225 --> 00:27:59,538
You say this Mannix
isn't bugging Jim Claman,
472
00:27:59,562 --> 00:28:01,295
but here he comes again.
473
00:28:03,082 --> 00:28:06,922
I guess he missed the plane.
474
00:28:09,555 --> 00:28:12,956
Mannix, unless you've come
to deliver some delegates,
475
00:28:12,992 --> 00:28:15,258
why don't you run along home.
476
00:28:22,684 --> 00:28:25,619
I think that my chances
are reasonably good.
477
00:28:25,654 --> 00:28:28,622
I don't make any claims
at this time, but I do have...
478
00:28:28,657 --> 00:28:31,041
How do you feel the
campaign's going?
479
00:28:31,076 --> 00:28:32,543
Gentlemen, excuse me.
480
00:28:32,578 --> 00:28:34,505
I'll be glad to answer
your questions later.
481
00:28:34,529 --> 00:28:36,129
Excuse me.
482
00:28:38,300 --> 00:28:39,877
And what is it this time?
483
00:28:39,901 --> 00:28:42,002
Well, it might be
the whole ball game.
484
00:28:42,037 --> 00:28:44,421
Whatever, it shouldn't
take five minutes to find out.
485
00:28:44,456 --> 00:28:46,656
Jim, I was about
to get rid of him.
486
00:28:46,691 --> 00:28:47,975
You can throw me out,
487
00:28:48,010 --> 00:28:49,393
or you can talk to me,
488
00:28:49,428 --> 00:28:51,806
whichever you think is
best for the Claman image.
489
00:28:51,830 --> 00:28:53,608
It has to do with
Coronet Trucking.
490
00:28:53,632 --> 00:28:55,265
All right!
491
00:28:55,301 --> 00:28:58,335
Maybe Coronet Trucking
was an underworld front.
492
00:28:58,370 --> 00:29:00,003
I didn't know that.
493
00:29:00,038 --> 00:29:02,573
Isn't it just possible that
while you were their attorney,
494
00:29:02,608 --> 00:29:04,386
you could have signed some
incriminating documents?
495
00:29:04,410 --> 00:29:05,987
What are you getting at, Mannix?
496
00:29:06,011 --> 00:29:07,644
That Michael Raitt
wanted me to know
497
00:29:07,679 --> 00:29:09,124
you were involved
with Coronet Trucking.
498
00:29:09,148 --> 00:29:11,331
Now, if that's the case,
he must have something.
499
00:29:11,366 --> 00:29:14,118
And if he does, then it's my
guess that you know what it is.
500
00:29:14,153 --> 00:29:16,186
Mannix...
501
00:29:16,222 --> 00:29:19,706
I'm gonna be finished with this
and with you once and for all.
502
00:29:19,741 --> 00:29:23,127
If Coronet Trucking was
a syndicate operation,
503
00:29:23,162 --> 00:29:25,362
I knew nothing about it.
504
00:29:25,397 --> 00:29:26,797
Nothing at all.
505
00:29:26,832 --> 00:29:28,777
However, who would believe me?
506
00:29:28,801 --> 00:29:30,200
So I'm gonna cooperate with you.
507
00:29:30,236 --> 00:29:33,270
I'm going to open up the
gates so that you can dig up
508
00:29:33,305 --> 00:29:35,856
any dirt on me
that you can find.
509
00:29:35,891 --> 00:29:37,401
Wait a minute, Jim, you can't!
510
00:29:37,425 --> 00:29:38,976
Yes, I can.
511
00:29:39,011 --> 00:29:41,556
But if there's something you
can use to crucify me with,
512
00:29:41,580 --> 00:29:43,491
I'd like to have it
before the convention
513
00:29:43,515 --> 00:29:45,293
picks its nominee for governor.
514
00:29:45,317 --> 00:29:48,585
If you find someth...
anything incriminating,
515
00:29:48,620 --> 00:29:50,298
I'll withdraw from the race.
516
00:29:50,322 --> 00:29:52,900
Jim, you... Walt, I
am not about to hurt
517
00:29:52,924 --> 00:29:55,253
a lot of good people
and a good party.
518
00:29:55,277 --> 00:29:59,979
I haven't got a fix
on you yet, Claman.
519
00:30:00,014 --> 00:30:02,282
Maybe you are on the up-and-up.
520
00:30:04,219 --> 00:30:06,219
But then again...
521
00:30:06,255 --> 00:30:09,623
maybe you've come up with
the greatest political con act
522
00:30:09,658 --> 00:30:11,425
since kissing babies.
523
00:30:11,460 --> 00:30:12,926
Try me.
524
00:30:36,735 --> 00:30:39,602
One complete photostat report
of the Richard Newley accident.
525
00:30:39,638 --> 00:30:42,672
Ah, thanks. You know, I like
you people better this way.
526
00:30:42,708 --> 00:30:44,820
I guess it does
pay to have friends.
527
00:30:44,844 --> 00:30:46,409
Well, you better
keep 'em, Mannix.
528
00:30:46,445 --> 00:30:50,047
We don't find you
exactly irresistible.
529
00:31:05,264 --> 00:31:06,596
Mr. Mannix?
530
00:31:17,526 --> 00:31:19,559
I'd like to talk to you.
531
00:31:19,595 --> 00:31:21,545
Be glad to, Mrs. Claman.
532
00:31:21,580 --> 00:31:26,215
Mr. Mannix, my husband has
quite a career ahead of him.
533
00:31:26,251 --> 00:31:30,020
He's young enough to go on
to even more important things.
534
00:31:30,055 --> 00:31:31,755
I'm very proud of him.
535
00:31:31,790 --> 00:31:35,075
I don't quite understand
what you're getting at.
536
00:31:36,178 --> 00:31:39,078
On the seat, the envelope.
537
00:31:39,114 --> 00:31:40,430
Take it.
538
00:31:40,465 --> 00:31:42,232
It's yours.
539
00:31:47,523 --> 00:31:49,022
Mine?
540
00:31:49,057 --> 00:31:51,057
$5,000, Mr. Mannix.
541
00:31:51,092 --> 00:31:53,259
All you have to do to earn it
542
00:31:53,294 --> 00:31:56,246
is to get on a plane
and go back to California.
543
00:31:56,281 --> 00:32:00,500
That, of course, is, uh,
before I finish the case.
544
00:32:00,535 --> 00:32:03,269
You've done your work well.
545
00:32:03,305 --> 00:32:05,422
It's started to make waves,
546
00:32:05,457 --> 00:32:09,960
waves that are going to swamp
a very good and very able man.
547
00:32:09,995 --> 00:32:12,262
My husband deserves
better than that, Mr. Mannix,
548
00:32:12,297 --> 00:32:13,863
and so does this state.
549
00:32:15,434 --> 00:32:18,635
Mrs. Claman, I
have... No. Please...
550
00:32:18,670 --> 00:32:21,138
don't answer just yet.
551
00:32:21,173 --> 00:32:23,857
Meanwhile, think about it.
552
00:32:25,978 --> 00:32:29,546
You know, I've got a hunch
about you, Mrs. Claman,
553
00:32:29,581 --> 00:32:31,949
and if I'm right...
554
00:32:31,984 --> 00:32:34,544
I hope your husband
deserves you.
555
00:32:49,250 --> 00:32:51,217
Well, you don't
even look surprised.
556
00:32:51,252 --> 00:32:52,730
No, I'm not. I'm pleased.
557
00:32:52,754 --> 00:32:55,321
At least this time I didn't
get sapped over the head
558
00:32:55,356 --> 00:32:57,201
and have a bottle
shoved down my throat.
559
00:32:57,225 --> 00:32:59,036
Now, uh, shall I
order up some drinks,
560
00:32:59,060 --> 00:33:01,561
or do you two want to
get right to the point?
561
00:33:01,596 --> 00:33:05,298
The point is, darling,
I told you, if I had to,
562
00:33:05,333 --> 00:33:09,268
I would take off my
gloves and fight like a man.
563
00:33:09,304 --> 00:33:10,670
I had to.
564
00:33:10,705 --> 00:33:14,051
You see, Mannix, Mrs.
Hanley and I are not as...
565
00:33:14,075 --> 00:33:16,053
honorable as Jim Claman.
566
00:33:16,077 --> 00:33:20,246
I'm afraid he had to break
his promise of cooperation.
567
00:33:20,281 --> 00:33:22,114
And, uh...
568
00:33:22,150 --> 00:33:25,285
you can hardly
wait to tell me how.
569
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:26,853
It's our duty.
570
00:33:26,889 --> 00:33:29,789
By reason of certain
influences, pressures,
571
00:33:29,842 --> 00:33:33,443
your detective license has
been revoked in this state.
572
00:33:33,478 --> 00:33:37,047
I presume this, uh, decision
was made as soon as you learned
573
00:33:37,082 --> 00:33:39,165
I had the police report
on Newley's death.
574
00:33:39,218 --> 00:33:40,816
Correct.
575
00:33:40,853 --> 00:33:42,496
You're pretty
touchy on the subject
576
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,499
of Richard Newley,
aren't you, Mrs. Hanley?
577
00:33:44,523 --> 00:33:46,490
To borrow a cliché,
578
00:33:46,525 --> 00:33:49,408
I haven't the slightest idea
what you're talking about.
579
00:33:49,445 --> 00:33:51,945
According to the report,
Richard Newley took a cab
580
00:33:51,980 --> 00:33:53,530
to the place he was murdered.
581
00:33:53,565 --> 00:33:55,414
The day he had his accident.
582
00:33:55,451 --> 00:33:58,051
He took a cab to the
place he was murdered
583
00:33:58,086 --> 00:33:59,369
from your house, Mrs. Hanley.
584
00:33:59,405 --> 00:34:00,937
Impossible.
585
00:34:00,972 --> 00:34:03,273
Of course, Richard did
spend time at my house
586
00:34:03,308 --> 00:34:05,253
giving me tennis
lessons, as I told you.
587
00:34:05,277 --> 00:34:06,488
But on that
particular afternoon,
588
00:34:06,512 --> 00:34:09,162
I had called him to tell
him I wouldn't be there.
589
00:34:09,214 --> 00:34:10,380
That can be checked out.
590
00:34:10,416 --> 00:34:11,981
Not by you, mister.
591
00:34:12,017 --> 00:34:13,983
Any further detecting
you do in this state
592
00:34:14,019 --> 00:34:15,184
will be considered illegal.
593
00:34:15,220 --> 00:34:17,387
And that spells jail.
594
00:34:50,906 --> 00:34:54,007
Outside call, please...
Century Cab Company.
595
00:34:58,580 --> 00:35:00,547
Uh, Century Cab Company?
596
00:35:00,582 --> 00:35:03,483
Listen, you've got a driver
by the name of Pete Brine,
597
00:35:03,519 --> 00:35:05,067
number 406.
598
00:35:05,104 --> 00:35:07,104
I'd like to talk to him.
599
00:35:07,139 --> 00:35:08,771
Hello?
600
00:35:08,807 --> 00:35:10,118
Hello, Pete Brine?
601
00:35:10,142 --> 00:35:12,075
Yeah. What can I do for you?
602
00:35:12,111 --> 00:35:13,788
Well, I'm investigating
the Newley case,
603
00:35:13,812 --> 00:35:15,290
and according to
the police report,
604
00:35:15,314 --> 00:35:18,248
uh, he took a ride with
you on the day he died.
605
00:35:18,283 --> 00:35:20,016
That's right.
606
00:35:20,051 --> 00:35:21,484
Let's see, uh...
607
00:35:21,519 --> 00:35:23,770
I drove him up to Corona Mesa.
608
00:35:23,822 --> 00:35:25,755
You picked him
up at Mrs. Hanley's.
609
00:35:25,791 --> 00:35:28,369
I picked him up at
the Hotel Caribe.
610
00:35:28,393 --> 00:35:31,394
He comes out wearing
tennis shoes and a tennis outfit.
611
00:35:31,429 --> 00:35:34,380
I'd hacked him out that
way to Mrs. Hanley before.
612
00:35:34,416 --> 00:35:36,361
And was he, uh, carrying
anything with him?
613
00:35:36,385 --> 00:35:38,385
Yeah, a tennis racket.
614
00:35:38,420 --> 00:35:40,186
Oh, wait a minute.
615
00:35:40,221 --> 00:35:41,988
I thought it was pretty funny,
616
00:35:42,023 --> 00:35:43,902
he was also
carrying a briefcase.
617
00:35:43,926 --> 00:35:46,738
And then you went
straight to Mrs. Hanley's?
618
00:35:46,762 --> 00:35:50,096
Yeah. He gets out,
goes into a tennis cabana,
619
00:35:50,132 --> 00:35:51,965
stays for about ten minutes,
620
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,983
comes out dressed
in his civvies.
621
00:35:54,019 --> 00:35:55,413
What about the briefcase?
622
00:35:55,437 --> 00:35:58,071
Well, he must've left
it in the tennis cabana
623
00:35:58,106 --> 00:36:00,001
with his
white-on-whites, I guess.
624
00:36:00,025 --> 00:36:01,357
Uh, thanks, Pete.
625
00:36:01,393 --> 00:36:03,994
I'll see that you get a
picture of General Grant.
626
00:36:04,029 --> 00:36:06,863
An autographed picture by
the Secretary of the Treasury.
627
00:36:06,899 --> 00:36:08,498
Hey, thanks!
628
00:37:46,197 --> 00:37:48,164
Start making tracks, old buddy.
629
00:37:48,199 --> 00:37:50,800
You're going up, up and away.
630
00:38:08,820 --> 00:38:11,621
Whip this thing up, Cal!
631
00:38:11,656 --> 00:38:15,124
I want to get back in
time to hear that roll call!
632
00:38:16,828 --> 00:38:19,256
You know, that
governor's race is liable
633
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,008
to be tighter than a dead heat.
634
00:38:21,032 --> 00:38:22,932
Sure hope Claman wins.
635
00:38:34,096 --> 00:38:36,429
You're awful quiet.
636
00:38:38,033 --> 00:38:40,333
Yeah. Just thinking.
637
00:38:40,368 --> 00:38:42,202
I guess it was you who
tapped me over the head
638
00:38:42,237 --> 00:38:43,903
at Newley's apartment, huh?
639
00:38:43,939 --> 00:38:46,383
Yeah, and it sure
cut me to the quick
640
00:38:46,407 --> 00:38:49,359
to have to put the arm
on a good ol' boy like you.
641
00:38:49,394 --> 00:38:51,922
If you hadn't of stuck
to it the way you did,
642
00:38:51,946 --> 00:38:55,582
I might not have wound
up with this key to the state!
643
00:38:55,617 --> 00:39:00,019
A state's a pretty
expensive blackmail price.
644
00:39:00,055 --> 00:39:02,372
That must be first-class
dynamite in there.
645
00:39:02,407 --> 00:39:05,208
Dick Newley thought
it was anyhow.
646
00:39:05,243 --> 00:39:07,677
Sort of upset your gravy train
647
00:39:07,713 --> 00:39:09,473
if Claman didn't win that
nomination, wouldn't it?
648
00:39:09,497 --> 00:39:12,949
I got to admit it would
be a big disappointment.
649
00:39:17,005 --> 00:39:19,872
The way it lays out to me,
650
00:39:19,907 --> 00:39:21,841
Richard Newley owed
you gambling money,
651
00:39:21,876 --> 00:39:25,178
so you used that to force him
to get something on Claman.
652
00:39:25,213 --> 00:39:28,114
It's a little rough on the
edges, but it ain't bad.
653
00:39:28,149 --> 00:39:32,235
And then Newley decided to
go into business for himself.
654
00:39:32,270 --> 00:39:35,271
He called me and said if I
didn't beat Claman's price,
655
00:39:35,306 --> 00:39:37,957
he was going to take his
business to the source.
656
00:39:37,992 --> 00:39:40,560
So you take the
hotel helicopter,
657
00:39:40,595 --> 00:39:43,129
and your friend up front
here forced him over the cliff.
658
00:39:43,164 --> 00:39:46,398
He spooked
hisself over that cliff.
659
00:39:46,434 --> 00:39:49,636
But, stupid as he was,
he still had brains enough
660
00:39:49,671 --> 00:39:52,271
not to bring the Claman
documents with him.
661
00:39:52,306 --> 00:39:54,023
This was his hole card.
662
00:39:57,995 --> 00:40:01,030
This is where you get out, son.
663
00:40:01,065 --> 00:40:02,209
I'm afraid you're going
664
00:40:02,233 --> 00:40:06,285
to have a mighty nasty accident.
665
00:40:17,849 --> 00:40:20,349
Come on around, Cal!
666
00:41:39,847 --> 00:41:42,382
We're out of control!
We're out of control!
667
00:41:42,417 --> 00:41:44,817
Get ahold of it, Cal!
668
00:42:13,881 --> 00:42:17,149
The delegation from
the Imperial Empire
669
00:42:17,184 --> 00:42:22,038
of Jameson County
casts its entire 27 votes
670
00:42:22,073 --> 00:42:28,494
for the next governor of
this great state, Jim Claman!
671
00:42:38,422 --> 00:42:40,522
That puts you ahead, Jim.
672
00:42:40,558 --> 00:42:44,493
Now, if Curtis County
goes our way, you're in.
673
00:42:44,528 --> 00:42:48,831
Hey. Rita, you hear that?
674
00:42:48,866 --> 00:42:51,300
Our personal guru thinks
we're going to head the ticket.
675
00:42:51,336 --> 00:42:53,702
Listen, Rita, why
don't you call the desk
676
00:42:53,738 --> 00:42:55,554
and reserve this suite
for a few more days?
677
00:42:55,589 --> 00:42:57,473
It'll give us a little
time for ourselves.
678
00:42:57,508 --> 00:42:59,208
No time off, Jim.
679
00:42:59,244 --> 00:43:02,122
You'll have to make that banker's
conference up north tomorrow.
680
00:43:02,146 --> 00:43:03,658
If you want their
support in the election,
681
00:43:03,682 --> 00:43:05,181
you'll have to be
there and smile.
682
00:43:05,216 --> 00:43:06,427
Yeah, yeah. I forgot about that.
683
00:43:06,451 --> 00:43:07,466
Yeah.
684
00:43:14,942 --> 00:43:17,076
What do you want now?
685
00:43:17,111 --> 00:43:18,544
Your boss invited me
686
00:43:18,580 --> 00:43:20,420
to dig up whatever dirt
I could find, remember?
687
00:43:20,448 --> 00:43:22,142
- What's in there?
- I don't know.
688
00:43:22,166 --> 00:43:23,410
I'm not going to let you
689
00:43:23,434 --> 00:43:26,636
destroy a good
man's political career.
690
00:43:26,671 --> 00:43:30,239
I figure Mr. Claman at
least deserves first look.
691
00:43:33,144 --> 00:43:35,422
What is all this about?
692
00:43:35,446 --> 00:43:38,848
I found this in the late Richard
Newley's personal effects.
693
00:43:38,883 --> 00:43:43,569
My guess is, whatever's in here
will explain why he called you.
694
00:43:46,023 --> 00:43:47,440
Well, do you want to see it?
695
00:43:47,475 --> 00:43:50,226
Or do you already know?
696
00:43:53,898 --> 00:43:58,734
Mr. Chairman, Freehold
County casts four votes
697
00:43:58,770 --> 00:44:03,606
for Ty Norton, 12
votes for Jim Claman!
698
00:44:55,209 --> 00:45:00,663
From this great
state, Mr. Jeff Lehman!
699
00:45:00,698 --> 00:45:02,148
Oh, Jim, I...
700
00:45:02,183 --> 00:45:06,435
Nothing happened...
no thanks to me.
701
00:45:06,470 --> 00:45:08,938
Curtis County?
702
00:45:08,973 --> 00:45:12,408
Mr. Chairman... Mr. Chairman,
the delegates of Curtis County
703
00:45:12,443 --> 00:45:17,180
cast 33 votes for our
next governor, Jim Claman!
704
00:45:29,543 --> 00:45:34,880
Well, it's... it's worked
out all right, hasn't it, Jim?
705
00:45:34,915 --> 00:45:37,133
Now you won't need
my help anyway.
706
00:46:03,010 --> 00:46:05,544
In case you're interested, Jim,
707
00:46:05,579 --> 00:46:07,591
that was last Wednesday,
708
00:46:07,615 --> 00:46:10,175
while you were away
on your speaking tour.
709
00:46:12,203 --> 00:46:14,403
I was tempted.
710
00:46:14,439 --> 00:46:16,872
I admit that.
711
00:46:16,907 --> 00:46:20,376
For the first time
in our marriage,
712
00:46:20,411 --> 00:46:24,313
I was tempted to
look beyond you, Jim.
713
00:46:24,348 --> 00:46:27,360
But it didn't go any
further than the pictures.
714
00:46:27,384 --> 00:46:29,718
Mrs. Claman?
715
00:46:31,272 --> 00:46:33,589
Did you know about these?
716
00:46:35,226 --> 00:46:37,359
No, Mr. Mannix.
717
00:46:37,394 --> 00:46:40,062
I offered you a bribe
718
00:46:40,098 --> 00:46:42,832
solely in the interest
of my husband.
719
00:46:42,867 --> 00:46:45,668
I knew he hadn't
done anything wrong.
720
00:46:45,703 --> 00:46:50,606
I also knew that mud,
721
00:46:50,642 --> 00:46:53,959
once it's thrown,
sticks to a man.
722
00:46:53,994 --> 00:46:58,798
It's just that you
were always gone
723
00:46:58,833 --> 00:47:02,034
while Walt was here.
724
00:47:02,069 --> 00:47:04,080
It was always, "Walt, make sure
725
00:47:04,104 --> 00:47:06,316
you take care of
Rita while I'm gone."
726
00:47:06,340 --> 00:47:11,343
That's all he did
for a very long time.
727
00:47:13,714 --> 00:47:16,415
And I've been so lonely.
728
00:47:19,770 --> 00:47:22,071
There's no reason
729
00:47:22,106 --> 00:47:24,790
to order your wife
out of your life.
730
00:47:24,825 --> 00:47:28,544
You did that a long time ago,
731
00:47:28,579 --> 00:47:32,581
and that ghost
of her that's left
732
00:47:32,617 --> 00:47:34,717
is leaving anyway.
733
00:47:47,565 --> 00:47:49,515
I'd like to order a taxi.
734
00:47:51,802 --> 00:47:54,803
Please, Rita.
735
00:47:58,243 --> 00:48:01,176
Oh, a man can be such a fool.
736
00:48:05,049 --> 00:48:11,537
We were both
right and both wrong
737
00:48:11,572 --> 00:48:13,722
about so many things.
738
00:48:28,088 --> 00:48:29,833
But, in this ball game,
739
00:48:29,857 --> 00:48:31,952
there are no ties, Mannix.
740
00:48:31,976 --> 00:48:33,954
There has to be a winner.
741
00:48:33,978 --> 00:48:36,646
You're the winner.
742
00:48:44,671 --> 00:48:47,272
You're right, Mr. Claman.
743
00:48:47,308 --> 00:48:49,574
Every game has a winner.
744
00:49:13,668 --> 00:49:16,669
Oh, Joe!
745
00:49:16,704 --> 00:49:18,982
I was just calling your room.
746
00:49:19,006 --> 00:49:20,150
They said you had checked out.
747
00:49:20,174 --> 00:49:21,201
I'm glad I caught you.
748
00:49:21,225 --> 00:49:22,658
Really?
749
00:49:22,693 --> 00:49:26,078
Yes. I... I think I
owe you an apology.
750
00:49:26,113 --> 00:49:28,058
It's just, when you
were investigating
751
00:49:28,082 --> 00:49:29,681
into Richard Newley's death,
752
00:49:29,716 --> 00:49:32,284
you began to probe
a little too deeply
753
00:49:32,319 --> 00:49:33,702
into my relationship with him.
754
00:49:33,737 --> 00:49:36,049
I didn't think that
would look quite right.
755
00:49:36,073 --> 00:49:37,884
I mean, if it got around.
756
00:49:37,908 --> 00:49:41,093
I mean, I do publish a
chain of family newspapers.
757
00:49:41,128 --> 00:49:44,847
Clearly stated, and
apologies accepted.
758
00:49:44,882 --> 00:49:47,883
Thank you. Wait!
759
00:49:47,919 --> 00:49:49,896
The past is behind us now.
760
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:53,233
Why don't we just wrap
ourselves in some privacy?
761
00:49:53,257 --> 00:49:55,391
You never can tell.
762
00:49:55,426 --> 00:49:58,811
It just could possibly be a
bright, new, beautiful world.
763
00:49:58,846 --> 00:50:01,847
Oh, I'm sorry,
Claire. What can I do?
764
00:50:01,883 --> 00:50:05,651
You took my away my
license to practice in this state.
