00:02:52,305 --> 00:02:55,874
Female, white, about 21.
5
00:02:55,943 --> 00:02:59,878
She was conscious when
she went into the water.
6
00:02:59,947 --> 00:03:02,113
Probably suicide.
7
00:03:02,182 --> 00:03:04,716
Ah, she's not the girl
I'm looking for, Adam.
8
00:03:08,522 --> 00:03:09,588
About the right age.
9
00:03:09,657 --> 00:03:11,067
Well, that's why I called you.
10
00:03:11,091 --> 00:03:13,603
Thought she might be when
they brought her in this morning.
11
00:03:13,627 --> 00:03:16,072
Sorry to drag you downtown.
12
00:03:16,096 --> 00:03:17,696
Adam... Hmm?
13
00:03:17,765 --> 00:03:20,599
Let me look at that girl again.
14
00:03:20,668 --> 00:03:23,569
I thought you said
she wasn't the one
15
00:03:23,637 --> 00:03:24,781
you were hired to find.
16
00:03:24,805 --> 00:03:28,273
She's not, but, uh... that face,
17
00:03:28,341 --> 00:03:30,075
I've seen it before.
18
00:03:30,143 --> 00:03:31,677
Open it up again, Don.
19
00:03:39,169 --> 00:03:41,303
You know her?
20
00:03:41,388 --> 00:03:43,955
Carol Wilson.
21
00:03:44,024 --> 00:03:45,757
Girl about town.
22
00:03:45,825 --> 00:03:49,143
The best places, the best men.
23
00:03:49,230 --> 00:03:52,297
A couple of months ago,
she dropped out of circulation.
24
00:03:52,366 --> 00:03:54,249
She didn't belong to
just anybody anymore.
25
00:03:54,318 --> 00:03:59,253
She belonged to
one man... Alec Ryan.
26
00:03:59,323 --> 00:04:00,789
The swinging attorney.
27
00:04:00,857 --> 00:04:02,023
Interesting, huh?
28
00:04:02,109 --> 00:04:04,220
What's that you always
heard about chickens?
29
00:04:04,244 --> 00:04:06,139
They, uh, they do
come home, don't they?
30
00:04:06,163 --> 00:04:08,030
Oh, I read you, Joe.
31
00:04:08,098 --> 00:04:09,509
Listen, you forget about it.
32
00:04:09,533 --> 00:04:12,078
I don't care if Alec Ryan
did bum rap you once
33
00:04:12,102 --> 00:04:13,813
and get your license
suspended for six months.
34
00:04:13,837 --> 00:04:16,771
A man who has contempt
for the law sooner or later
35
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:18,006
has got to break it.
36
00:04:18,092 --> 00:04:19,808
So far, no law's been broken,
37
00:04:19,877 --> 00:04:21,938
by Alec Ryan or anybody else.
38
00:04:21,962 --> 00:04:24,829
There's a girl who walked
into the water, period.
39
00:04:24,882 --> 00:04:28,216
Yeah, that's your
story, Sergeant.
40
00:04:28,285 --> 00:04:30,285
I say she was pushed.
41
00:04:40,864 --> 00:04:43,565
Where?
42
00:04:43,633 --> 00:04:45,834
Is that in Beverly?
43
00:04:45,902 --> 00:04:47,201
Thanks. I'll try there.
44
00:04:53,177 --> 00:04:55,276
Any lead on Ryan?
45
00:04:55,345 --> 00:04:57,412
The great jet-set mouthpiece
46
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,081
isn't coming into
his office these days.
47
00:04:59,149 --> 00:05:01,016
The house in Palm
Springs is buttoned up tight.
48
00:05:01,085 --> 00:05:02,383
No one there but a caretaker,
49
00:05:02,452 --> 00:05:04,052
and the pad in
Malibu is being rented
50
00:05:04,121 --> 00:05:05,053
by a vacationing evangelist.
51
00:05:05,122 --> 00:05:06,399
Well, we'll keep at it.
52
00:05:06,423 --> 00:05:08,601
If you do get a lead, call me.
53
00:05:08,625 --> 00:05:11,185
I'll be at the LAPD
with Sergeant Tobias.
54
00:05:13,864 --> 00:05:15,430
Oh, thanks.
55
00:05:15,498 --> 00:05:17,532
Uh, who's the
client in this one?
56
00:05:17,601 --> 00:05:19,234
Just so I'll know who to bill.
57
00:05:19,302 --> 00:05:20,413
There's no client, Peggy.
58
00:05:20,437 --> 00:05:22,403
Purely a labor of love.
59
00:05:22,472 --> 00:05:25,006
Uh, do you mind
if I say something?
60
00:05:25,075 --> 00:05:26,341
You're acting a little uptight.
61
00:05:26,409 --> 00:05:28,449
Yeah, well, it's an
uptight world, Peggy.
62
00:05:37,904 --> 00:05:40,417
The Carol Wilson autopsy report.
63
00:05:40,441 --> 00:05:43,074
Sorry, Joe. No marks on her.
64
00:05:43,143 --> 00:05:44,187
She wasn't sauced.
65
00:05:44,211 --> 00:05:45,922
She was drowned and in saltwater
66
00:05:45,946 --> 00:05:48,246
about 11:00 last night.
67
00:05:48,315 --> 00:05:52,116
Hey, Tom, what about this
stuff under her fingernails?
68
00:05:52,185 --> 00:05:54,065
Well, that's a variety of algae.
69
00:05:55,772 --> 00:05:58,006
So she was struggling
when she was in the water.
70
00:05:58,075 --> 00:05:59,502
Must have been
grabbing for something.
71
00:05:59,526 --> 00:06:02,127
Well, people can throw
themselves in the water
72
00:06:02,195 --> 00:06:04,257
and change their minds
in midair, you know that.
73
00:06:04,281 --> 00:06:06,714
Yeah, but the girl
who was pushed in
74
00:06:06,784 --> 00:06:08,150
can also put up a fight.
75
00:06:09,369 --> 00:06:10,649
I'll get it.
76
00:06:12,606 --> 00:06:14,505
Pathology lab.
77
00:06:14,574 --> 00:06:15,651
Oh, hi, Peggy.
78
00:06:15,675 --> 00:06:17,109
Yeah, he's here.
79
00:06:20,748 --> 00:06:24,116
Yeah, Peggy?
80
00:06:24,184 --> 00:06:26,730
Yeah, good, good.
Yeah, thanks, Peg.
81
00:06:26,754 --> 00:06:27,764
Alec Ryan.
82
00:06:27,788 --> 00:06:29,365
He's on his boat at the marina.
83
00:06:29,389 --> 00:06:30,399
Thanks for everything.
84
00:06:30,423 --> 00:06:31,735
Joe, listen, I know you'd love
85
00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:33,870
to bust Alec Ryan
on a murder one.
86
00:06:33,894 --> 00:06:35,443
Okay, you don't like him.
87
00:06:35,512 --> 00:06:37,623
I don't like him, and half
the country doesn't like him,
88
00:06:37,647 --> 00:06:40,159
but there's no scientific
evidence of violence
89
00:06:40,183 --> 00:06:41,828
or foul play in Carol
Wilson's death.
90
00:06:41,852 --> 00:06:43,751
I think he murdered her.
91
00:06:43,821 --> 00:06:45,953
There is no murder, Joe!
92
00:06:46,023 --> 00:06:49,307
Is that what that lab full
of instruments tell you?
93
00:06:49,359 --> 00:06:51,759
Yeah, instruments
with no personal grudge
94
00:06:51,828 --> 00:06:53,306
against Alec Ryan
or anyone else.
95
00:06:53,330 --> 00:06:54,941
Well, Adam, you stick
to your instruments.
96
00:06:54,965 --> 00:06:57,182
Now me, I don't
fly by instruments.
97
00:06:57,251 --> 00:06:59,317
I'm like those old
barnstorming pilots
98
00:06:59,386 --> 00:07:01,319
who flew by the
seat of their pants.
99
00:07:01,388 --> 00:07:02,498
They're all dead, Joe.
100
00:07:02,522 --> 00:07:04,300
The seat of their
pants flew them right
101
00:07:04,324 --> 00:07:05,635
into the side of a mountain.
102
00:07:05,659 --> 00:07:07,425
What a way to go.
103
00:07:35,489 --> 00:07:38,389
♪ ♪
104
00:08:01,381 --> 00:08:03,347
Excuse me, miss...
105
00:08:04,785 --> 00:08:06,065
Is Mr. Ryan around?
106
00:08:15,595 --> 00:08:18,696
Alec, someone to see you.
107
00:08:42,906 --> 00:08:46,040
Mona, go practice your crawl.
108
00:09:00,123 --> 00:09:02,289
She practically
lives in the water.
109
00:09:02,358 --> 00:09:05,760
Sometimes I think she has gills.
110
00:09:05,829 --> 00:09:07,061
How have you been, Mannix?
111
00:09:07,130 --> 00:09:08,062
Getting by.
112
00:09:08,131 --> 00:09:10,598
I hear that you've gone back
113
00:09:10,667 --> 00:09:12,766
to pursuing your
dreary little profession.
114
00:09:12,836 --> 00:09:15,970
A lot drearier when you're
barred from pursuing.
115
00:09:16,056 --> 00:09:17,805
We all stub a toe occasionally.
116
00:09:17,891 --> 00:09:18,891
Or we're tripped.
117
00:09:18,959 --> 00:09:20,904
Well, I hope you
don't hold a grudge.
118
00:09:20,928 --> 00:09:23,177
You were doing your
thing, I was doing mine.
119
00:09:23,263 --> 00:09:25,797
Only you did yours a
little harder and dirtier.
120
00:09:28,234 --> 00:09:30,134
Well, I assume you're
snooping around
121
00:09:30,203 --> 00:09:31,403
on behalf of some client?
122
00:09:31,471 --> 00:09:32,749
Something like that.
123
00:09:32,773 --> 00:09:35,423
You claiming privilege or
will you tell me who it is?
124
00:09:35,492 --> 00:09:38,726
Her name is Carol Wilson.
125
00:09:38,795 --> 00:09:39,795
Know her?
126
00:09:39,830 --> 00:09:43,832
At one time we were quite close.
127
00:09:43,900 --> 00:09:45,200
Why? Is she in trouble?
128
00:09:45,285 --> 00:09:47,085
Not now.
129
00:09:47,154 --> 00:09:48,469
She's dead.
130
00:09:51,792 --> 00:09:55,293
Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
131
00:09:55,361 --> 00:09:56,481
Would you like something?
132
00:09:56,546 --> 00:09:57,745
Some coffee?
133
00:09:57,813 --> 00:09:59,347
No, thanks.
134
00:10:06,306 --> 00:10:09,007
Her body was washed
up on shore this morning.
135
00:10:09,076 --> 00:10:10,558
She wasn't dressed for swimming.
136
00:10:10,644 --> 00:10:13,294
The police figure maybe suicide.
137
00:10:13,363 --> 00:10:15,680
Maybe?
138
00:10:15,732 --> 00:10:16,981
How well did you know her?
139
00:10:19,402 --> 00:10:21,969
Well, I suppose you'd
find out sooner or later.
140
00:10:22,038 --> 00:10:25,906
She got quite a bit of
sun out here last summer.
141
00:10:25,975 --> 00:10:28,259
Got a certain amount
of moonlight, too.
142
00:10:28,328 --> 00:10:29,861
And after the summer?
143
00:10:31,865 --> 00:10:35,433
I broke rule number one
of the yachtsman's code:
144
00:10:35,502 --> 00:10:38,953
Never introduce your girl
to a man with a bigger boat.
145
00:10:41,925 --> 00:10:45,259
When was that?
146
00:10:45,328 --> 00:10:46,895
Six, eight weeks ago.
147
00:10:46,963 --> 00:10:49,397
August. When in August?
148
00:10:51,100 --> 00:10:53,446
Would you believe
it? I didn't write it down.
149
00:10:53,470 --> 00:10:56,304
And you haven't seen her since?
150
00:10:56,372 --> 00:10:57,872
No.
151
00:10:57,941 --> 00:11:00,185
I don't know what else
I can tell you about her.
152
00:11:00,209 --> 00:11:03,812
She was a beautiful girl.
153
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,848
Unfortunately, that
was also her profession:
154
00:11:06,917 --> 00:11:07,977
beautiful girl.
155
00:11:08,001 --> 00:11:10,201
Who, uh, is the man who has
156
00:11:10,253 --> 00:11:11,652
the bigger boat?
157
00:11:11,721 --> 00:11:13,104
A client.
158
00:11:13,173 --> 00:11:14,767
You claiming
privilege, counselor?
159
00:11:14,791 --> 00:11:17,792
It hardly falls under the
attorney-client relationship.
160
00:11:17,860 --> 00:11:22,163
It was the tycoon's
tycoon, Warren Nichols.
161
00:11:24,467 --> 00:11:25,783
You still his lawyer?
162
00:11:25,852 --> 00:11:27,452
Mm-hmm.
163
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,565
Warren Nichols pays
me an annual retainer
164
00:11:29,589 --> 00:11:31,706
in excess of $100,000.
165
00:11:31,775 --> 00:11:34,620
Perhaps that doesn't give
him the right to steal my girl,
166
00:11:34,644 --> 00:11:36,673
but it makes it an
awful lot easier to take.
167
00:11:36,697 --> 00:11:40,898
Last night, I don't
suppose you left your boat?
168
00:11:40,951 --> 00:11:43,200
I had no reason to.
169
00:11:48,492 --> 00:11:49,602
Go ahead, ask her.
170
00:11:49,626 --> 00:11:51,058
Call her over.
171
00:11:51,127 --> 00:11:52,689
She can make it in ten seconds.
172
00:11:52,713 --> 00:11:55,380
She's a fish.
173
00:12:12,015 --> 00:12:13,247
My name is Mannix.
174
00:12:13,316 --> 00:12:15,149
I'm a private detective.
175
00:12:15,218 --> 00:12:17,852
It's important I
speak to Mr. Nichols.
176
00:12:17,921 --> 00:12:19,331
Mr. Nichols is not at home.
177
00:12:19,355 --> 00:12:21,233
You know where
he can be reached?
178
00:12:21,257 --> 00:12:23,290
No. Please go away now.
179
00:12:23,359 --> 00:12:24,976
You're upsetting the dogs.
180
00:12:26,663 --> 00:12:29,180
Sorry.
181
00:12:41,511 --> 00:12:44,345
And it's important that
the new cam be installed...
182
00:12:48,718 --> 00:12:51,619
You're Mr. Mannix,
as it says outside.
183
00:12:51,688 --> 00:12:53,471
Yes.
184
00:12:53,523 --> 00:12:55,556
I'm Brett Nichols.
185
00:12:58,628 --> 00:13:00,840
You wouldn't by any chance
be Mrs. Warren Nichols?
186
00:13:00,864 --> 00:13:02,463
That's right.
187
00:13:02,532 --> 00:13:04,765
I know your dogs.
188
00:13:04,834 --> 00:13:07,635
Oh, uh, this is my
secretary Peggy Fair.
189
00:13:07,704 --> 00:13:09,103
How do you do?
190
00:13:09,172 --> 00:13:14,642
I think you can type up that
letter now, if you want, Peggy.
191
00:13:14,711 --> 00:13:16,177
I guess I want.
192
00:13:21,585 --> 00:13:23,585
Please, sit down.
193
00:13:25,639 --> 00:13:27,772
Interesting, isn't it,
194
00:13:27,841 --> 00:13:29,707
that we should have
so much in common.
195
00:13:29,759 --> 00:13:30,842
We have?
196
00:13:30,911 --> 00:13:33,411
Well, you've been trying
to reach my husband,
197
00:13:33,479 --> 00:13:35,096
and I'm here for
the same reason.
198
00:13:35,182 --> 00:13:37,164
You mean your
husband is missing?
199
00:13:37,234 --> 00:13:38,716
I think so.
200
00:13:38,768 --> 00:13:39,934
You don't know?
201
00:13:40,019 --> 00:13:42,119
Well, he could know
where he is, I don't.
202
00:13:42,188 --> 00:13:44,489
I haven't heard from
him in three days
203
00:13:44,557 --> 00:13:45,635
and that's a new record.
204
00:13:45,659 --> 00:13:47,391
A new record?
205
00:13:47,460 --> 00:13:48,460
What was the old?
206
00:13:48,495 --> 00:13:50,427
Is that important?
207
00:13:50,497 --> 00:13:52,425
Is it important
enough not to tell me?
208
00:13:52,449 --> 00:13:57,952
Well, it might help if I
knew your first name.
209
00:13:58,038 --> 00:14:00,204
Mrs. Nichols...
210
00:14:00,273 --> 00:14:02,351
what has my first name
got to do with anything?
211
00:14:02,375 --> 00:14:04,808
Well, I mean, if we're
going to talk about
212
00:14:04,878 --> 00:14:06,844
anything so personal
as my marriage,
213
00:14:06,913 --> 00:14:10,781
we, uh... we
shouldn't be so formal.
214
00:14:19,192 --> 00:14:20,574
It's Joe.
215
00:14:20,644 --> 00:14:23,144
Well, Joe,
216
00:14:23,212 --> 00:14:25,880
Warren and I have been
married ten years, it's...
217
00:14:25,949 --> 00:14:27,593
Well, and for the
last nine years,
218
00:14:27,617 --> 00:14:28,928
we've been
playing a little game.
219
00:14:28,952 --> 00:14:30,362
You know, he's
away a lot of the time,
220
00:14:30,386 --> 00:14:31,552
but he calls every night
221
00:14:31,621 --> 00:14:33,887
and tells me where he
is and what he's doing,
222
00:14:33,956 --> 00:14:35,473
and I pretend to believe him.
223
00:14:35,542 --> 00:14:37,591
But you know he's lying.
224
00:14:37,661 --> 00:14:39,060
Of course.
225
00:14:39,129 --> 00:14:40,494
And he knows I know.
226
00:14:40,563 --> 00:14:42,391
But hat's the way
the game's played.
227
00:14:42,415 --> 00:14:45,666
You must be worried about him,
otherwise you wouldn't be here.
228
00:14:45,752 --> 00:14:48,085
Well, not exactly worried.
229
00:14:48,154 --> 00:14:50,288
Curious.
230
00:14:50,357 --> 00:14:52,123
This time he's been
away three days
231
00:14:52,191 --> 00:14:54,325
and he hasn't once
phoned in his nightly lie.
232
00:14:54,394 --> 00:14:57,828
I'd just like to
know the reason.
233
00:14:57,898 --> 00:14:59,947
What's funny?
234
00:15:00,016 --> 00:15:01,348
You.
235
00:15:01,417 --> 00:15:04,202
Oh, not funny, uh... unusual.
236
00:15:04,271 --> 00:15:05,953
What's usual?
237
00:15:06,022 --> 00:15:08,723
Well, when a woman
comes in to tell me
238
00:15:08,791 --> 00:15:10,024
her man hasn't been home,
239
00:15:10,092 --> 00:15:12,052
she usually acts
pretty hysterical.
240
00:15:14,046 --> 00:15:18,882
Well, I'm sorry I don't
fit the usual pattern, Joe.
241
00:15:18,952 --> 00:15:20,584
Oh, don't be sorry.
242
00:15:20,653 --> 00:15:22,298
The one who
carried on the loudest
243
00:15:22,322 --> 00:15:24,642
turned out to have put her
husband in the incinerator.
244
00:15:35,050 --> 00:15:36,917
You're wasting your time, Joe.
245
00:15:36,986 --> 00:15:38,452
Warren didn't keep anything here
246
00:15:38,521 --> 00:15:41,622
but his out-of-season clothes
and this third-best razor.
247
00:15:41,691 --> 00:15:44,324
Well, there've got to be
business records some place.
248
00:15:44,394 --> 00:15:46,026
Not here.
249
00:15:46,095 --> 00:15:47,840
Well, where's his office?
250
00:15:47,864 --> 00:15:50,898
Haven't you ever heard the
legend of Warren Nichols,
251
00:15:50,966 --> 00:15:52,533
the billionaire hermit? Hm?
252
00:15:52,602 --> 00:15:54,234
No office.
253
00:15:54,303 --> 00:15:56,303
I don't buy legends.
254
00:15:56,372 --> 00:15:57,772
It's true.
255
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,041
And there's never
anything in his pockets, Joe.
256
00:16:01,110 --> 00:16:03,644
I've looked.
257
00:16:03,713 --> 00:16:05,123
What happens if
some of the troops
258
00:16:05,147 --> 00:16:06,759
want to get in
touch with the man?
259
00:16:06,783 --> 00:16:08,761
Suppose they have to
have an answer real fast
260
00:16:08,785 --> 00:16:12,152
or say drop a couple
of million dollars?
261
00:16:12,221 --> 00:16:15,423
They talk to the man's attorney.
262
00:16:15,491 --> 00:16:17,090
Alec Ryan.
263
00:16:24,434 --> 00:16:25,683
What's this?
264
00:16:25,735 --> 00:16:27,868
My picture.
265
00:16:27,937 --> 00:16:30,571
Warren's idea of my picture.
266
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,025
A sentimental man, no?
267
00:16:34,077 --> 00:16:37,711
It's my application for
a job as his secretary.
268
00:16:37,780 --> 00:16:40,181
It's a simple letter
written by a simple girl
269
00:16:40,249 --> 00:16:41,515
just out of secretarial school.
270
00:16:41,584 --> 00:16:43,751
That's how we met.
271
00:16:43,837 --> 00:16:45,169
I came for an interview,
272
00:16:45,238 --> 00:16:47,771
and he gave me
some letters to type.
273
00:16:47,841 --> 00:16:50,441
It was about 7:00
before I finished,
274
00:16:50,509 --> 00:16:52,693
so he asked if I
could stay overnight.
275
00:16:52,762 --> 00:16:54,774
He said he might
have some more letters.
276
00:16:54,798 --> 00:16:57,064
I said I couldn't
possibly do that.
277
00:16:57,133 --> 00:17:01,402
And he asked if it would make
a difference if we were married.
278
00:17:01,470 --> 00:17:02,869
I said yes.
279
00:17:02,939 --> 00:17:04,105
So the man married you.
280
00:17:04,190 --> 00:17:08,392
We flew to Yuma that night.
281
00:17:10,980 --> 00:17:12,680
Romantic, isn't it?
282
00:17:12,748 --> 00:17:14,159
Mm.
283
00:17:14,183 --> 00:17:16,743
You didn't really know him.
284
00:17:16,786 --> 00:17:19,303
I knew he was good-
looking and charming
285
00:17:19,355 --> 00:17:21,050
with several hundred
million dollars.
286
00:17:21,074 --> 00:17:22,440
At those prices, I figured
287
00:17:22,509 --> 00:17:24,424
whatever was
wrong, I could change.
288
00:17:24,494 --> 00:17:26,561
And I did.
289
00:17:26,629 --> 00:17:28,796
I changed.
290
00:17:28,865 --> 00:17:30,097
A lot.
291
00:17:31,951 --> 00:17:33,284
Would you like a drink?
292
00:17:33,352 --> 00:17:36,353
Or don't you drink on the job?
293
00:17:36,422 --> 00:17:38,689
My job is being
Mrs. Warren Nichols,
294
00:17:38,758 --> 00:17:40,992
and drinking is permitted.
295
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:42,877
Almost compulsory.
296
00:17:42,962 --> 00:17:45,613
Did you know about your
husband and Carol Wilson?
297
00:17:48,484 --> 00:17:53,387
And the one before her
and the one before her...
298
00:17:53,455 --> 00:17:55,122
Or should I go on?
299
00:18:01,648 --> 00:18:03,247
Hello.
300
00:18:03,316 --> 00:18:06,717
Yes, this is Mrs.
Warren Nichols.
301
00:18:06,786 --> 00:18:09,536
Yes, put him on.
302
00:18:09,622 --> 00:18:11,505
It's the police.
Sergeant Tobias.
303
00:18:11,574 --> 00:18:14,608
Yes?
304
00:18:14,677 --> 00:18:16,076
Thank you, Sergeant.
305
00:18:16,162 --> 00:18:18,028
Yes, right away.
306
00:18:20,700 --> 00:18:22,533
You might be interested...
307
00:18:25,037 --> 00:18:26,737
They found Warren.
308
00:18:37,216 --> 00:18:39,583
You all right?
309
00:18:39,652 --> 00:18:42,019
Don't mind me.
310
00:18:42,087 --> 00:18:44,322
I cry at parades.
311
00:18:44,390 --> 00:18:46,990
Look, why don't you
wait out in the car?
312
00:18:47,059 --> 00:18:49,327
I want to talk to Sergeant
Tobias for a minute, huh?
313
00:18:55,618 --> 00:18:56,717
Thanks.
314
00:18:59,455 --> 00:19:01,066
How did you find him, Adam?
315
00:19:01,090 --> 00:19:03,223
Service station down the hill.
316
00:19:03,292 --> 00:19:05,626
Nichols had his car picked
up for servicing on Monday.
317
00:19:05,695 --> 00:19:07,061
He wanted it back in a hurry.
318
00:19:07,129 --> 00:19:08,596
Been trying to get
somebody up here
319
00:19:08,664 --> 00:19:10,030
to answer the
phone for three days,
320
00:19:10,099 --> 00:19:12,466
and finally reported it.
321
00:19:12,534 --> 00:19:15,736
Kind of washes up your theory,
doesn't it, Joe? Yeah? How?
322
00:19:15,805 --> 00:19:18,288
Well, you've been leaning
kind of hard on Alec Ryan.
323
00:19:18,357 --> 00:19:20,507
Now it's a whole new ball game.
324
00:19:20,576 --> 00:19:21,758
Tell me.
325
00:19:21,811 --> 00:19:24,145
Nichols was killed by
a small caliber weapon,
326
00:19:24,213 --> 00:19:25,946
fired at close range.
327
00:19:26,015 --> 00:19:28,682
No sign of struggle, no
forced entry into the house.
328
00:19:28,751 --> 00:19:29,817
Conclusion:
329
00:19:29,902 --> 00:19:32,219
he was killed by
somebody he knew.
330
00:19:32,288 --> 00:19:34,288
Evidence?
331
00:19:34,357 --> 00:19:35,422
Compact.
332
00:19:35,491 --> 00:19:38,159
Initials C.W., as
in Carol Wilson.
333
00:19:38,227 --> 00:19:40,161
One hair, color red.
334
00:19:40,229 --> 00:19:41,974
Found on a pillow
and probably hers.
335
00:19:41,998 --> 00:19:43,264
Oh, big deal.
336
00:19:43,333 --> 00:19:44,709
Does that put her
here, in the house,
337
00:19:44,733 --> 00:19:45,777
at the time it happened?
338
00:19:45,801 --> 00:19:48,435
It's going to.
339
00:19:50,156 --> 00:19:53,957
. A hair removed from Carol
Wilson's head after she drowned.
340
00:19:54,027 --> 00:19:56,944
A hair found in Nichols' lodge.
341
00:19:57,013 --> 00:19:59,447
All right. It's her hair.
342
00:19:59,515 --> 00:20:01,515
Now show me where it
says Wednesday night.
343
00:20:03,486 --> 00:20:04,518
Show him, Ellie.
344
00:20:04,587 --> 00:20:05,747
This hair,
345
00:20:05,771 --> 00:20:07,955
taken from Carol
Wilson, is dark at the root.
346
00:20:08,024 --> 00:20:10,324
So she dyed her hair.
347
00:20:10,409 --> 00:20:12,359
No, she used henna.
348
00:20:12,445 --> 00:20:14,427
There's a difference?
349
00:20:14,497 --> 00:20:15,963
About ten dollars.
350
00:20:16,031 --> 00:20:18,098
If you were married,
you'd know that.
351
00:20:18,167 --> 00:20:20,300
Henna doesn't
penetrate the hair.
352
00:20:20,369 --> 00:20:21,802
It just coats the surface.
353
00:20:21,871 --> 00:20:24,016
It fades, and then
has to be renewed.
354
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,939
This henna is quite fresh.
355
00:20:26,008 --> 00:20:27,825
So far, I'm with you.
356
00:20:27,877 --> 00:20:29,821
Her body was found
Thursday morning.
357
00:20:29,845 --> 00:20:31,657
She'd been dead about ten hours.
358
00:20:31,681 --> 00:20:34,192
From those facts, plus
the freshness of the henna,
359
00:20:34,216 --> 00:20:36,850
we know she that had a henna
treatment Wednesday afternoon.
360
00:20:36,936 --> 00:20:39,103
I'm interested in
Wednesday night.
361
00:20:42,275 --> 00:20:44,086
Now this was the hair found in
362
00:20:44,110 --> 00:20:46,243
Warren Nichols' happy hideaway.
363
00:20:46,312 --> 00:20:48,779
It couldn't have been put
there before late Wednesday
364
00:20:48,847 --> 00:20:49,875
because Carol only added
365
00:20:49,899 --> 00:20:51,710
the henna Wednesday afternoon.
366
00:20:51,734 --> 00:20:54,234
And it couldn't have been put
there after Wednesday night,
367
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,420
because she died
Wednesday night.
368
00:20:56,489 --> 00:20:58,800
In other words, she was there
369
00:20:58,824 --> 00:21:00,974
Wednesday night.
370
00:21:01,043 --> 00:21:02,209
Thanks, Ellie.
371
00:21:05,915 --> 00:21:07,915
Why fight it, Joe?
372
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,334
It's classic.
373
00:21:10,402 --> 00:21:12,269
Lovers' quarrel.
374
00:21:12,338 --> 00:21:14,271
Girl shoots boy.
375
00:21:14,340 --> 00:21:16,151
Finds out she can't
get away with it,
376
00:21:16,175 --> 00:21:18,375
throws herself
right in the ocean.
377
00:21:18,427 --> 00:21:19,360
That's neat.
378
00:21:19,428 --> 00:21:20,906
Neat. Pink ribbons.
379
00:21:20,930 --> 00:21:23,130
I happen to be a square
about these things, Adam.
380
00:21:23,165 --> 00:21:24,943
I don't get that warm,
comfy feeling in here
381
00:21:24,967 --> 00:21:26,411
unless I've got
the gun in my hand.
382
00:21:26,435 --> 00:21:27,685
Now where's the gun, Adam?
383
00:21:27,737 --> 00:21:30,020
I'd say she had it with
her when she drowned.
384
00:21:30,072 --> 00:21:32,017
Now that's beautiful, and
you won't be able to find it
385
00:21:32,041 --> 00:21:33,284
unless you drag the
whole Pacific Ocean.
386
00:21:33,308 --> 00:21:34,241
Is that your cop-out?
387
00:21:34,327 --> 00:21:37,144
No, no cop-out, Joe.
388
00:21:40,149 --> 00:21:41,916
Tom, Mannix doesn't think
389
00:21:41,984 --> 00:21:43,395
we're pushing hard
enough for the gun.
390
00:21:43,419 --> 00:21:44,451
That so?
391
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,286
What do you got?
392
00:21:46,355 --> 00:21:47,688
According to the Coast Guard,
393
00:21:47,757 --> 00:21:49,690
the current Wednesday
night ran west,
394
00:21:49,759 --> 00:21:51,458
maximum speed four knots.
395
00:21:51,527 --> 00:21:53,360
Now, the body was found here.
396
00:21:53,429 --> 00:21:54,912
Now, she first entered the water
397
00:21:54,964 --> 00:21:57,414
somewhere inside
this quarter circle.
398
00:21:57,466 --> 00:22:00,217
That's a big leap forward.
399
00:22:00,269 --> 00:22:02,402
Don't let him bug
you, Tom, go on.
400
00:22:02,471 --> 00:22:04,371
You remember the algae
we found under her nails?
401
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,285
Well, I checked with the
people down at Scripps,
402
00:22:06,309 --> 00:22:08,409
and it turns out to be a
parasitic marine growth.
403
00:22:08,477 --> 00:22:10,411
Meaning what?
404
00:22:10,479 --> 00:22:11,479
It grows on things.
405
00:22:11,547 --> 00:22:12,813
Oh, thanks.
406
00:22:12,881 --> 00:22:14,114
What sort of things?
407
00:22:14,183 --> 00:22:15,282
Wood.
408
00:22:15,351 --> 00:22:16,351
Generally wood.
409
00:22:16,419 --> 00:22:19,269
Old piers, pilings...
sunken boats.
410
00:22:19,338 --> 00:22:20,971
Driftwood.
411
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,325
Now, there aren't any
wrecked boats in here.
412
00:22:24,410 --> 00:22:26,822
And if you're drowning,
you don't claw at driftwood.
413
00:22:26,846 --> 00:22:27,856
You grab at it.
414
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:32,065
So we settle for piers, pilings.
415
00:22:32,134 --> 00:22:33,300
Right here.
416
00:22:33,386 --> 00:22:35,185
Paradise Cove.
417
00:23:09,388 --> 00:23:10,520
Hey, Sarge!
418
00:23:10,589 --> 00:23:12,322
What do you got, Benjie?
419
00:23:12,374 --> 00:23:15,408
This one's got
some striations on it.
420
00:23:15,477 --> 00:23:17,711
Looks like someone's
been grabbing.
421
00:23:17,797 --> 00:23:20,865
Scrape off some samples.
422
00:23:20,933 --> 00:23:23,000
Shelley, bring over the bucket.
423
00:23:36,282 --> 00:23:39,766
Benjie, take a look down below.
424
00:24:00,172 --> 00:24:03,356
".22 caliber automatic
target pistol, serial number
425
00:24:03,425 --> 00:24:05,292
"25233.
426
00:24:05,361 --> 00:24:08,862
Registered to Alec
Ryan, attorney."
427
00:24:08,931 --> 00:24:10,964
Well, Mr. Ryan?
428
00:24:11,033 --> 00:24:12,911
Are you accusing
me of something?
429
00:24:12,935 --> 00:24:14,301
I'm saying ballistics says
430
00:24:14,370 --> 00:24:17,737
a bullet from your gun
killed Warren Nichols.
431
00:24:17,806 --> 00:24:19,284
I've already
discussed the matter
432
00:24:19,308 --> 00:24:21,219
in some detail with the police.
433
00:24:21,243 --> 00:24:24,211
In the interests of my
client, Mrs. Warren Nichols,
434
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,413
would you mind
discussing it with me?
435
00:24:26,481 --> 00:24:30,583
Anything to oblige Brett.
436
00:24:30,652 --> 00:24:33,320
I'm afraid I can't
help very much.
437
00:24:33,389 --> 00:24:36,489
As I told Sergeant Tobias,
438
00:24:36,558 --> 00:24:38,658
the gun was stolen
some few months ago.
439
00:24:38,727 --> 00:24:40,860
I reported it to the
police at the time.
440
00:24:40,930 --> 00:24:42,213
You can check the date.
441
00:24:42,265 --> 00:24:44,431
I did.
442
00:24:44,500 --> 00:24:46,249
"Stolen August 4th."
443
00:24:46,319 --> 00:24:51,722
No, that's when I
discovered it was gone.
444
00:24:51,791 --> 00:24:54,458
I remember using it
around July the 10th
445
00:24:54,527 --> 00:24:56,092
and then, August the 4th,
446
00:24:56,161 --> 00:24:58,390
when I wanted to take a little
target practice, it was gone.
447
00:24:58,414 --> 00:25:01,765
In other words, the gun was
stolen between those dates.
448
00:25:01,834 --> 00:25:04,368
That seems fairly safe.
449
00:25:04,437 --> 00:25:05,637
Of course, I'm no detective.
450
00:25:05,705 --> 00:25:08,989
And Carol Wilson left
you between those dates.
451
00:25:10,459 --> 00:25:11,536
Didn't it occur to you
452
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,021
that she might
have taken the gun?
453
00:25:13,045 --> 00:25:14,545
I was almost certain she had.
454
00:25:14,613 --> 00:25:16,742
It was a valuable gun. I
assumed she'd stolen it.
455
00:25:16,766 --> 00:25:19,599
That's funny.
456
00:25:19,668 --> 00:25:23,253
You reported the theft
as "by persons unknown."
457
00:25:23,306 --> 00:25:27,274
Well, I don't know how
things are in your set, Mannix,
458
00:25:27,343 --> 00:25:30,210
but in mine, if a friend,
especially a lady, leaves you,
459
00:25:30,279 --> 00:25:32,391
taking with her a book
she happened to be reading,
460
00:25:32,415 --> 00:25:33,980
or even part of the silverware,
461
00:25:34,049 --> 00:25:35,794
it is not a matter
for the police.
462
00:25:35,818 --> 00:25:37,317
This happened to be a gun.
463
00:25:37,403 --> 00:25:40,087
Don't teach me the law.
464
00:25:40,156 --> 00:25:41,699
What about yesterday...
Why didn't you tell me then
465
00:25:41,723 --> 00:25:42,840
that she had taken it?
466
00:25:42,909 --> 00:25:44,386
It couldn't have
ruined her good name.
467
00:25:44,410 --> 00:25:46,610
She was dead.
468
00:25:46,678 --> 00:25:49,346
I'm trying to think how
it would have gone.
469
00:25:49,415 --> 00:25:51,848
You came on my boat to
tell me Carol was drowned.
470
00:25:51,918 --> 00:25:53,951
What did you want me to say?
471
00:25:54,020 --> 00:25:56,031
"Funny, her drowning.
She could have shot herself.
472
00:25:56,055 --> 00:25:57,055
She had my gun."
473
00:25:57,089 --> 00:25:58,421
Or was I supposed to say,
474
00:25:58,490 --> 00:26:00,535
"If she's dead, she won't
be needing my gun anymore.
475
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:01,570
Can I have it back?"
476
00:26:01,594 --> 00:26:03,159
Come off it, Mannix.
477
00:26:03,228 --> 00:26:05,040
I had your license lifted once.
478
00:26:05,064 --> 00:26:06,407
That doesn't make me a murderer.
479
00:26:06,431 --> 00:26:08,160
You dislike me, but it
doesn't give you the right
480
00:26:08,184 --> 00:26:11,785
to put me in a gas chamber for
something I didn't do. Didn't you?
481
00:26:11,854 --> 00:26:13,498
This time, Mannix, if I
get your license lifted,
482
00:26:13,522 --> 00:26:15,755
it'll be for good.
483
00:26:40,866 --> 00:26:42,499
Why?
484
00:26:42,568 --> 00:26:45,469
Why did she steal that gun?
485
00:26:45,537 --> 00:26:48,305
She was leaving Alec Ryan
to take up with Warren Nichols.
486
00:26:48,373 --> 00:26:51,124
But she swiped Ryan's gun. Why?
487
00:26:51,193 --> 00:26:53,360
So if she ever
wanted to kill Nichols,
488
00:26:53,429 --> 00:26:54,573
she'd have a weapon handy?
489
00:26:54,597 --> 00:26:55,545
I don't believe it.
490
00:26:55,614 --> 00:26:57,681
Drink your coffee.
491
00:26:57,750 --> 00:26:59,049
That's another thing.
492
00:26:59,118 --> 00:27:00,717
Where was the champagne?
493
00:27:00,786 --> 00:27:02,468
Champagne?
494
00:27:02,537 --> 00:27:04,804
Yeah, did you ever see
a picture of Alec Ryan
495
00:27:04,873 --> 00:27:06,617
without a glass of
champagne in his hand?
496
00:27:06,641 --> 00:27:08,224
Parties, race track,
497
00:27:08,293 --> 00:27:10,555
fancy breakfasts on his
boat; always champagne.
498
00:27:10,579 --> 00:27:11,862
Remember what they called him
499
00:27:11,931 --> 00:27:13,408
in that magazine feature
last year... "Champagne Alec."
500
00:27:13,432 --> 00:27:16,000
You know what he was drinking
on the boat both times I saw him?
501
00:27:16,068 --> 00:27:17,117
What?
502
00:27:17,186 --> 00:27:19,352
Coffee.
503
00:27:19,421 --> 00:27:22,238
Look, why don't you just go
right down to the grand jury.
504
00:27:22,307 --> 00:27:23,985
I mean, you've
got an airtight case.
505
00:27:24,009 --> 00:27:26,543
You caught him red-handed
drinking a cup of coffee.
506
00:27:26,612 --> 00:27:28,145
You know what I think?
507
00:27:28,213 --> 00:27:29,891
I think Ryan knew
Carol Wilson was dead,
508
00:27:29,915 --> 00:27:31,793
and knew somebody'd be
out there to question him,
509
00:27:31,817 --> 00:27:32,999
so he wanted to be sober.
510
00:27:33,068 --> 00:27:35,335
As long as Mona baby says
511
00:27:35,404 --> 00:27:37,014
Ryan never left that
boat Wednesday night,
512
00:27:37,038 --> 00:27:39,239
that lets him
completely off the hook.
513
00:27:39,308 --> 00:27:40,857
So why don't you just forget it?
514
00:27:40,926 --> 00:27:42,576
No.
515
00:27:42,645 --> 00:27:44,678
No, something is missing.
516
00:27:44,747 --> 00:27:47,280
It just feels wrong.
517
00:27:47,349 --> 00:27:49,166
Look, I'll see you later, huh?
518
00:27:49,235 --> 00:27:51,384
Hey, what about your coffee?
519
00:27:51,453 --> 00:27:54,320
Oh, uh, keep it
for the grand jury.
520
00:28:23,902 --> 00:28:25,802
When I've been a
widow long enough, Joe,
521
00:28:25,871 --> 00:28:27,337
will you dance with me?
522
00:28:27,406 --> 00:28:30,106
A pleasure.
523
00:28:30,175 --> 00:28:32,676
I haven't danced in eight years.
524
00:28:36,281 --> 00:28:38,025
How about some fresh air?
525
00:28:38,049 --> 00:28:40,350
I love fresh air...
526
00:28:40,419 --> 00:28:42,753
as long as it has
some bourbon in it.
527
00:28:46,425 --> 00:28:47,874
Not exactly society's favorite
528
00:28:47,942 --> 00:28:49,642
watering place, is it?
529
00:28:49,711 --> 00:28:51,644
Well, it's no country club.
530
00:28:51,713 --> 00:28:53,413
That's why I like it here.
531
00:28:53,482 --> 00:28:55,582
No one knows me here.
532
00:28:55,650 --> 00:28:59,186
They don't say,
"Brett, come join us.
533
00:28:59,254 --> 00:29:00,332
We'll talk."
534
00:29:00,356 --> 00:29:01,699
Meaning, "Don't
drink so much, Brett."
535
00:29:01,723 --> 00:29:05,158
Or, "Can we give
you a lift home, Brett?"
536
00:29:05,227 --> 00:29:08,728
Meaning, "You're too
smashed to navigate."
537
00:29:08,797 --> 00:29:12,099
Or, "Don't you think
you've had enough, Brett?"
538
00:29:12,167 --> 00:29:15,235
Meaning, "You've had enough."
539
00:29:26,398 --> 00:29:28,031
I've had enough.
540
00:29:30,202 --> 00:29:34,421
You don't think Carol Wilson
killed my husband, do you?
541
00:29:34,489 --> 00:29:40,543
All the evidence points to
it, but can't figure a motive.
542
00:29:40,612 --> 00:29:44,181
Maybe Warren was
throwing her out.
543
00:29:44,250 --> 00:29:46,366
He liked variety.
544
00:29:46,435 --> 00:29:50,487
Girls like that don't kill
men who throw them out.
545
00:29:50,555 --> 00:29:51,904
They find other men.
546
00:29:56,945 --> 00:30:01,481
You were about to say something?
547
00:30:01,550 --> 00:30:04,651
What about, uh...
548
00:30:04,719 --> 00:30:06,185
what about you and other men?
549
00:30:08,807 --> 00:30:10,551
Are you investigating
a murder, sir,
550
00:30:10,575 --> 00:30:12,220
or trying to get
your face slapped?
551
00:30:12,244 --> 00:30:17,564
Well, uh... another
man, in love with you...
552
00:30:20,469 --> 00:30:21,718
would've had a motive.
553
00:30:21,786 --> 00:30:24,288
Sorry.
554
00:30:24,356 --> 00:30:27,424
No other men.
555
00:30:27,492 --> 00:30:30,994
I was the faithful collie.
556
00:30:31,063 --> 00:30:34,031
Even when I found out
I was never really going
557
00:30:34,099 --> 00:30:35,165
to have Warren, I...
558
00:30:35,234 --> 00:30:38,502
he was still all I wanted.
559
00:30:38,571 --> 00:30:42,655
Well, that brings us
to business associates.
560
00:30:42,724 --> 00:30:45,075
Oh, sure. Any of them.
561
00:30:45,144 --> 00:30:46,242
Any of them what?
562
00:30:46,311 --> 00:30:48,645
Would have been
delighted to kill him.
563
00:30:48,714 --> 00:30:50,834
To do business with
Warren was to hate him.
564
00:30:50,899 --> 00:30:53,433
Did Alec Ryan hate him?
565
00:30:53,502 --> 00:30:55,118
Probably.
566
00:30:55,187 --> 00:31:00,490
Warren never took me
into his confidences...
567
00:31:00,559 --> 00:31:02,292
not even in business matters.
568
00:31:10,251 --> 00:31:13,186
You know what
I've been thinking?
569
00:31:13,254 --> 00:31:16,790
I was wondering what
would've happened
570
00:31:16,858 --> 00:31:21,260
ten years ago, if you'd
advertised for a secretary.
571
00:31:23,765 --> 00:31:27,434
But... it's too late now.
572
00:31:30,104 --> 00:31:35,141
Time... Time for another drink.
573
00:31:35,210 --> 00:31:36,609
Join me?
574
00:31:36,678 --> 00:31:37,811
No, thanks.
575
00:31:37,879 --> 00:31:40,213
I've got to get back to work.
576
00:31:40,282 --> 00:31:42,193
You mean you
haven't been working?
577
00:31:42,217 --> 00:31:44,668
Not entirely.
578
00:31:44,737 --> 00:31:46,919
No more questions?
579
00:31:46,988 --> 00:31:48,888
Not now.
580
00:31:51,393 --> 00:31:53,659
Well, I'll be here
tomorrow night,
581
00:31:53,728 --> 00:31:55,862
and you can shine a
bright light in my eyes
582
00:31:55,930 --> 00:31:57,447
and shout at me if you like.
583
00:32:10,462 --> 00:32:11,811
Good night.
584
00:32:45,597 --> 00:32:47,431
I must say you're pretty good.
585
00:32:47,499 --> 00:32:48,948
It keeps me in shape.
586
00:32:49,017 --> 00:32:51,183
For what? The Olympics.
587
00:32:51,252 --> 00:32:54,204
A lawyer friend of mine told
me I don't have to talk to you.
588
00:32:54,273 --> 00:32:56,289
It's about Wednesday night.
589
00:32:56,357 --> 00:32:58,341
I thought Alec
told you about that.
590
00:32:58,409 --> 00:33:01,961
Are you sure you spent all
of Wednesday on his boat?
591
00:33:02,030 --> 00:33:04,581
Well, it's not the kind
of thing a girl forgets.
592
00:33:04,650 --> 00:33:07,317
Is it possible he
could have left the boat
593
00:33:07,386 --> 00:33:10,870
for a few hours maybe,
without your knowing?
594
00:33:10,939 --> 00:33:12,706
Frankly, I don't see how.
595
00:33:12,775 --> 00:33:16,576
And you'd say the
same thing under oath?
596
00:33:16,645 --> 00:33:19,207
Well, I wouldn't exactly
want the world to know,
597
00:33:19,231 --> 00:33:21,164
but, yes, I would.
598
00:33:21,233 --> 00:33:23,033
You know, Mona, they
don't have swimming pools
599
00:33:23,101 --> 00:33:24,484
at women's prisons.
600
00:33:24,552 --> 00:33:27,420
Now, if you're lying, you could
miss the next two Olympics.
601
00:33:27,489 --> 00:33:29,673
Maybe three.
602
00:33:29,742 --> 00:33:32,659
You'd better give
it some thought.
603
00:33:32,728 --> 00:33:34,672
That's five years for perjury.
604
00:33:34,696 --> 00:33:36,341
Another five years
for accessory to...
605
00:33:36,365 --> 00:33:39,115
To what, Mannix?
606
00:33:39,184 --> 00:33:42,869
Get something on, Mona.
We're due at the Langs'.
607
00:33:46,492 --> 00:33:48,508
See you at the Olympics.
608
00:33:52,848 --> 00:33:54,314
Let me put it this way, Mannix:
609
00:33:54,382 --> 00:33:55,949
You've threatened me.
610
00:33:56,017 --> 00:33:57,934
You've threatened my girl.
611
00:33:58,002 --> 00:33:59,953
But that's it. The end.
612
00:34:00,022 --> 00:34:01,771
Finish.
613
00:34:07,529 --> 00:34:09,857
Well, he's right, Joe.
You've been asking for it.
614
00:34:09,881 --> 00:34:11,314
You won't use the radar.
615
00:34:11,383 --> 00:34:13,194
You won't look
at the instruments.
616
00:34:13,218 --> 00:34:14,651
Man, the seat of your pants
617
00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:16,163
is flying you right
into the mountain.
618
00:34:16,187 --> 00:34:17,799
I know Ryan's girl is lying!
619
00:34:17,823 --> 00:34:19,255
No, you don't know!
620
00:34:19,324 --> 00:34:21,357
You hate Ryan, so he's guilty.
621
00:34:21,427 --> 00:34:23,693
But the girl's his alibi,
so she must be lying!
622
00:34:23,762 --> 00:34:25,429
You don't know!
623
00:34:25,497 --> 00:34:26,508
Okay. I feel!
624
00:34:26,532 --> 00:34:27,532
You wish!
625
00:34:27,599 --> 00:34:29,411
Oh, you think
that's what it is, huh?
626
00:34:29,435 --> 00:34:31,701
You think I'm trying to
pin a murder rap on Ryan
627
00:34:31,770 --> 00:34:32,970
because he sticks in my craw?
628
00:34:33,004 --> 00:34:34,170
I know you better than that.
629
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:35,750
All right, what do you think?
630
00:34:35,774 --> 00:34:38,040
I think Carol Wilson
killed Warren Nichols,
631
00:34:38,110 --> 00:34:39,609
jumped into the water.
632
00:34:42,614 --> 00:34:44,147
But say I'm wrong.
633
00:34:44,199 --> 00:34:46,766
Say I buy the idea
of a double murder
634
00:34:46,835 --> 00:34:48,534
and a killer on the
loose... Okay, okay.
635
00:34:48,603 --> 00:34:49,803
I'm the cop on the job.
636
00:34:49,871 --> 00:34:51,521
I go looking for suspects.
637
00:34:51,590 --> 00:34:54,023
But Joe, I don't go looking
for suspect number two
638
00:34:54,093 --> 00:34:55,725
or five or ten.
639
00:34:55,794 --> 00:34:57,977
I go right to
suspect number one.
640
00:34:58,046 --> 00:34:59,311
Spell it out, do you mind?
641
00:34:59,380 --> 00:35:00,312
You read the papers?
642
00:35:00,381 --> 00:35:01,331
Yeah.
643
00:35:01,383 --> 00:35:03,216
How's this for a headline?
644
00:35:03,285 --> 00:35:05,196
"Wife kills husband
and other woman."
645
00:35:05,220 --> 00:35:06,619
Brett?
646
00:35:06,688 --> 00:35:07,704
Brett?
647
00:35:07,773 --> 00:35:09,489
Mrs. Warren Nichols!
648
00:35:09,558 --> 00:35:11,307
Have you questioned her, Joe?
649
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,459
Wife, husband, other woman.
650
00:35:13,529 --> 00:35:15,127
Two people are dead.
651
00:35:15,197 --> 00:35:16,974
Now, I still think the
other woman did it,
652
00:35:16,998 --> 00:35:19,127
but if you don't buy that,
isn't the wife next in line?
653
00:35:19,151 --> 00:35:20,883
Not this time.
654
00:35:20,952 --> 00:35:23,219
Why not? She
inherits all his money.
655
00:35:23,288 --> 00:35:25,821
Jealousy, greed, they've
driven other people to murder.
656
00:35:25,890 --> 00:35:27,723
Not Brett Nichols.
657
00:35:27,792 --> 00:35:31,060
Why? Because she has nice
eyes, good legs, a soft, husky voice?
658
00:35:31,129 --> 00:35:32,462
I mean, she smiles, you smile.
659
00:35:32,531 --> 00:35:35,165
All right, Adam, knock it off!
660
00:35:35,233 --> 00:35:36,233
Knock it off.
661
00:35:50,699 --> 00:35:52,665
Go ahead, say it.
662
00:35:52,734 --> 00:35:54,417
Have you questioned her?
663
00:35:54,486 --> 00:35:56,047
Of course! I've talked to her...
664
00:35:56,071 --> 00:35:58,238
Not talked, questioned.
665
00:35:58,323 --> 00:36:00,718
Did you ask her where
she was Wednesday night?
666
00:36:00,742 --> 00:36:03,876
Did you tell her the
penalty for perjury?
667
00:36:03,945 --> 00:36:07,313
Did you talk to her
like a detective?
668
00:36:18,793 --> 00:36:20,671
Mrs. Nichols? Mrs. Nichols?
669
00:36:20,695 --> 00:36:23,413
A Mr. Mannix to see you.
670
00:36:25,583 --> 00:36:28,318
Mrs. Nichols?
671
00:36:28,387 --> 00:36:30,353
Mrs. Nichols?
672
00:36:47,388 --> 00:36:49,055
Mr. Mannix!
673
00:37:16,551 --> 00:37:19,351
This is Joe Mannix, I'm
at 2020 El Cerrito Drive.
674
00:37:19,420 --> 00:37:20,430
Send out an emergency unit.
675
00:37:20,454 --> 00:37:22,138
Stomach pump, pulmotor.
676
00:37:22,206 --> 00:37:23,206
Attempted suicide.
677
00:37:38,890 --> 00:37:44,077
Dear Joe: You would've
found out anyway.
678
00:37:44,146 --> 00:37:47,013
You wouldn't have wanted to
ask me the terrible questions,
679
00:37:47,082 --> 00:37:49,682
and this will save
you the trouble.
680
00:37:49,751 --> 00:37:52,718
I guess I'm not as
hardboiled as I once thought
681
00:37:52,787 --> 00:37:56,156
or as you must've
thought... till now.
682
00:37:56,224 --> 00:37:57,957
I killed them both.
683
00:37:58,026 --> 00:38:01,428
I know this doesn't
square my account,
684
00:38:01,496 --> 00:38:02,895
but it makes things tidier.
685
00:38:02,964 --> 00:38:04,964
I'm sorry.
686
00:38:05,033 --> 00:38:07,867
Don't frame this letter. Brett.
687
00:38:39,734 --> 00:38:43,302
Doctor... According
to the books,
688
00:38:43,371 --> 00:38:45,054
anyone who's
taken that many pills
689
00:38:45,122 --> 00:38:47,335
has already been
dead for some time.
690
00:38:47,359 --> 00:38:48,920
But she's still alive.
691
00:38:48,944 --> 00:38:51,805
Is there any chance of her
regaining consciousness soon?
692
00:38:51,829 --> 00:38:54,697
I wouldn't count on anything.
693
00:38:54,765 --> 00:39:00,203
But if we can squeak past the
next eight hours, she's home.
694
00:39:00,271 --> 00:39:02,831
But don't count on it, huh?
695
00:39:19,290 --> 00:39:21,057
Well, how is she?
696
00:39:21,125 --> 00:39:22,208
Not good.
697
00:39:22,277 --> 00:39:25,011
That's hard to believe.
698
00:39:25,079 --> 00:39:27,963
I spent a couple of hours
with her late this afternoon.
699
00:39:28,032 --> 00:39:29,465
The maid told me.
700
00:39:29,534 --> 00:39:31,534
We had a lot to talk about.
701
00:39:31,603 --> 00:39:34,938
The estate, the technicalities
of moving it through probate.
702
00:39:35,006 --> 00:39:36,722
But it was heavy going.
703
00:39:36,791 --> 00:39:40,426
She was very shaken
up by Warren's death.
704
00:39:40,495 --> 00:39:42,512
Knowing how he treated her,
705
00:39:42,580 --> 00:39:45,731
that must seem pretty
far out, but there it is.
706
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,484
Anyway, just before leaving her,
707
00:39:48,553 --> 00:39:52,054
I told her to take a pill
and get some sleep.
708
00:39:52,123 --> 00:39:53,417
What I was concerned about
709
00:39:53,441 --> 00:39:55,703
was that she might
decide to go for a drive.
710
00:39:55,727 --> 00:40:00,163
And needless to say, by that
time, she was thoroughly sauced.
711
00:40:00,232 --> 00:40:02,565
Needless to say.
712
00:40:15,329 --> 00:40:17,429
Joe. Adam.
713
00:40:17,499 --> 00:40:18,698
I'm sorry, Joe.
714
00:40:18,766 --> 00:40:21,266
You warned me.
715
00:40:21,335 --> 00:40:23,895
Right into the side
of the mountain.
716
00:40:58,606 --> 00:41:01,541
Have you questioned her?
717
00:41:01,609 --> 00:41:04,177
Have you talked to
her like a detective?
718
00:41:10,034 --> 00:41:12,262
What about those tests?
719
00:41:12,286 --> 00:41:15,021
Well, no surprises.
720
00:41:15,089 --> 00:41:17,222
Stomach samples
and blood both show
721
00:41:17,291 --> 00:41:20,927
a high reading of alcohol
and barbituric acid.
722
00:41:20,995 --> 00:41:22,528
No surprises.
723
00:41:22,597 --> 00:41:24,174
Just what any clean-living cop
724
00:41:24,198 --> 00:41:27,199
would expect of a Brett Nichols.
725
00:41:27,268 --> 00:41:29,835
I'm not judging the lady, Joe.
726
00:41:29,904 --> 00:41:31,470
You asked me about the tests.
727
00:41:31,539 --> 00:41:32,816
I'm sorry, Adam.
728
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,975
It's... it's just
that I can't buy it.
729
00:41:36,044 --> 00:41:38,945
Confession, two murders...
730
00:41:39,013 --> 00:41:43,015
She did take an
overdose of sleeping pills.
731
00:41:43,084 --> 00:41:46,786
And I seriously doubt that even
our great courtroom spellbinder,
732
00:41:46,854 --> 00:41:50,322
Mr. Alec Ryan, could
persuade her to take her own life.
733
00:41:50,391 --> 00:41:51,924
Well, then, he tricked her.
734
00:41:51,993 --> 00:41:54,209
How, Joe?
735
00:41:55,547 --> 00:41:58,380
I talked to her doctor.
736
00:41:58,449 --> 00:42:00,460
Knowing her
history as a drinker,
737
00:42:00,484 --> 00:42:02,997
he made it very clear to
her just how dangerous it was
738
00:42:03,021 --> 00:42:04,932
to mix pills and liquor,
and to his knowledge,
739
00:42:04,956 --> 00:42:06,822
she had never overdosed.
740
00:42:06,891 --> 00:42:08,891
Is this the bottle her
prescription was in?
741
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,000
Yeah.
742
00:42:10,028 --> 00:42:14,480
"Not to be refilled
before February 20."
743
00:42:14,548 --> 00:42:16,081
Well, that's tomorrow.
744
00:42:16,150 --> 00:42:19,051
At last, something we agree on.
745
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:20,764
Come on, now... you're
missing the point, Adam.
746
00:42:20,788 --> 00:42:23,606
Listen, "Direction: one
tablet at bedtime for sleep."
747
00:42:23,674 --> 00:42:25,040
You know how it is, Joe.
748
00:42:25,109 --> 00:42:26,470
Some people never
believe in directions.
749
00:42:26,494 --> 00:42:29,078
If Brett Nichols took
one tablet every night
750
00:42:29,147 --> 00:42:30,457
and this prescription
ran out tomorrow,
751
00:42:30,481 --> 00:42:32,576
then she couldn't have
had over two pills to take.
752
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,494
How do you know
she didn't hoard them?
753
00:42:34,518 --> 00:42:37,720
Oh, sure, she always knew she
wanted to take her life one day.
754
00:42:37,789 --> 00:42:39,989
Come on now, Adam,
this is attempted murder!
755
00:42:40,058 --> 00:42:41,524
Joe, how can it be?
756
00:42:41,593 --> 00:42:43,793
Now, look, let's say that a
good and sympathetic friend
757
00:42:43,862 --> 00:42:46,295
like the family lawyer
suggests she takes a pill.
758
00:42:46,364 --> 00:42:48,765
Just so old Brett can
unwind and go to sleep.
759
00:42:48,833 --> 00:42:50,912
In combination with the
amount of alcohol she'd ingested,
760
00:42:50,936 --> 00:42:52,379
she'd be flat-out
asleep in minutes.
761
00:42:52,403 --> 00:42:54,582
Right. But not dead,
not in danger of dying.
762
00:42:54,606 --> 00:42:55,705
Right.
763
00:42:55,774 --> 00:42:57,040
So she wouldn't feel the needle
764
00:42:57,108 --> 00:43:00,476
he used to inject the lethal
dose of barbiturate, would she?
765
00:43:02,047 --> 00:43:04,930
Joe, the examining physician
didn't find any puncture marks.
766
00:43:04,999 --> 00:43:06,399
Did he shave her head?
767
00:43:06,467 --> 00:43:07,783
Check under fingernails?
768
00:43:07,852 --> 00:43:10,136
All right. We'll look.
769
00:43:10,205 --> 00:43:11,798
Why would Ryan want to kill her?
770
00:43:11,822 --> 00:43:13,900
To clear himself of the first
two murders, for openers.
771
00:43:13,924 --> 00:43:15,135
He's never been
charged with them.
772
00:43:15,159 --> 00:43:16,370
And Ryan's enough of a lawyer
773
00:43:16,394 --> 00:43:18,155
to know that he
probably never could be.
774
00:43:18,179 --> 00:43:20,279
Well, he's also enough
of a lawyer to know
775
00:43:20,348 --> 00:43:22,981
that if Brett Nichols lives
to protest his accounting
776
00:43:23,050 --> 00:43:25,685
of her husband's estate
to the probate court,
777
00:43:25,753 --> 00:43:28,587
his motive for killing Warren
Nichols will be out in the open.
778
00:43:28,656 --> 00:43:32,725
So your guess is, Ryan
killed Warren Nichols
779
00:43:32,794 --> 00:43:34,421
because Nichols
caught him stealing?
780
00:43:34,445 --> 00:43:36,161
There's no guesswork about it.
781
00:43:36,230 --> 00:43:37,813
You don't have any proof.
782
00:43:37,882 --> 00:43:39,493
You don't have one
shred of evidence.
783
00:43:39,517 --> 00:43:40,766
What do you call it?
784
00:43:40,834 --> 00:43:45,338
Navigation, Adam...
Seat-of-the-pants navigation.
785
00:43:45,406 --> 00:43:49,658
Now, if Brett Nichols dies,
I want the man who did it.
786
00:44:22,577 --> 00:44:24,510
Mannix.
787
00:44:24,579 --> 00:44:25,859
Won't you come in.
788
00:44:29,300 --> 00:44:30,777
You're just in
time for breakfast.
789
00:44:30,801 --> 00:44:31,912
A glass of champagne?
790
00:44:31,936 --> 00:44:34,220
Some coffee?
791
00:44:34,289 --> 00:44:37,823
Mona wins the blue ribbon
when it comes to boiling water.
792
00:44:37,891 --> 00:44:40,526
Thanks. I'll just pass.
793
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:43,579
Something wrong?
794
00:44:43,648 --> 00:44:46,282
Brett Nichols...
About an hour ago...
795
00:44:46,350 --> 00:44:47,711
She never regained
consciousness.
796
00:44:47,735 --> 00:44:50,402
Oh, that's too bad.
797
00:44:50,471 --> 00:44:53,789
Well, probably just as
well, all things considered.
798
00:44:53,858 --> 00:44:55,258
Yeah.
799
00:44:55,326 --> 00:44:57,804
Oh, the hospital would like to
check out some facts with you.
800
00:44:57,828 --> 00:44:59,729
Next of kin, previous illnesses,
801
00:44:59,797 --> 00:45:01,113
things like that.
802
00:45:01,182 --> 00:45:03,443
We were just about to shove off.
803
00:45:03,467 --> 00:45:05,228
Do you suppose I
could phone it in?
804
00:45:05,252 --> 00:45:08,020
I don't see why not.
805
00:45:08,089 --> 00:45:10,740
You know, I think I'll change
my mind about that coffee,
806
00:45:10,808 --> 00:45:12,625
if it's not too much trouble?
807
00:45:15,396 --> 00:45:16,590
I'll be right back.
808
00:45:16,614 --> 00:45:18,494
Phone's at the head of the pier.
809
00:45:23,621 --> 00:45:25,654
I guess I owe you an apology.
810
00:45:25,724 --> 00:45:27,123
I guess you do.
811
00:45:27,192 --> 00:45:29,625
You know, now that things have
worked out the way they have,
812
00:45:29,694 --> 00:45:32,254
I'm glad you were
telling the truth.
813
00:45:33,564 --> 00:45:36,432
Cream? Sugar?
814
00:45:36,500 --> 00:45:38,378
Because if you weren't
telling the truth, Mona...
815
00:45:38,402 --> 00:45:40,314
Well, look, let's just
kind of play a game...
816
00:45:40,338 --> 00:45:42,038
Let's suppose.
817
00:45:42,107 --> 00:45:45,241
Now suppose Alec
Ryan wasn't with you
818
00:45:45,309 --> 00:45:47,004
every beautiful minute
of Wednesday night,
819
00:45:47,028 --> 00:45:48,355
that he was with Warren Nichols,
820
00:45:48,379 --> 00:45:49,478
that he killed Nichols,
821
00:45:49,547 --> 00:45:51,224
and that Carol Wilson
walked in on him
822
00:45:51,248 --> 00:45:52,693
when he was tidying things up,
823
00:45:52,717 --> 00:45:55,684
so he bribed her with the
only thing she understood...
824
00:45:55,754 --> 00:45:57,253
An annuity.
825
00:45:57,321 --> 00:46:00,005
They then went to the
pier to get rid of the gun,
826
00:46:00,074 --> 00:46:03,126
and all of a sudden, she
found herself in the water,
827
00:46:03,194 --> 00:46:05,094
clawing for her life.
828
00:46:05,163 --> 00:46:07,629
Now, I'd say that annuity
had a pretty quick pay-off.
829
00:46:09,751 --> 00:46:13,669
And let's suppose that Alec
Ryan figured he was safe,
830
00:46:13,737 --> 00:46:14,748
because nobody knew,
831
00:46:14,772 --> 00:46:16,217
but Brett Nichols
figured it out,
832
00:46:16,241 --> 00:46:18,486
so he had to kill her, too.
833
00:46:18,510 --> 00:46:20,871
Of course nothing like
that ever happened,
834
00:46:20,895 --> 00:46:22,694
but if it had,
835
00:46:22,763 --> 00:46:29,135
you'd be the only person
in the world who knew...
836
00:46:29,203 --> 00:46:31,136
little Mona.
837
00:46:34,159 --> 00:46:36,625
You know where that
would leave you, Mona?
838
00:46:36,694 --> 00:46:38,961
One day you'd be
heading out to sea,
839
00:46:39,030 --> 00:46:41,070
just you and the man
who killed Nichols
840
00:46:41,115 --> 00:46:43,682
and then killed two other
people to cover up the crime.
841
00:46:43,751 --> 00:46:44,934
You'd be the only person
842
00:46:45,003 --> 00:46:47,336
who could pin all
three crimes on him.
843
00:46:47,404 --> 00:46:49,705
Did you say something?
844
00:46:49,773 --> 00:46:53,342
Oh, I'm sure you'd be
safe for a while, I guess.
845
00:46:53,411 --> 00:46:55,027
He wouldn't be in a hurry.
846
00:46:55,096 --> 00:46:58,413
But one sunny day, you'd be
on a boat heading out to sea,
847
00:46:58,482 --> 00:46:59,665
miles from anywhere...
848
00:46:59,734 --> 00:47:03,235
Just you, the boat, a lot
of water, and Alec Ryan.
849
00:47:03,304 --> 00:47:06,138
And then maybe just Alec Ryan.
850
00:47:06,206 --> 00:47:09,007
A tragic accident at
sea. No witnesses.
851
00:47:09,076 --> 00:47:11,644
Of course, the police
might have their suspicions,
852
00:47:11,713 --> 00:47:13,195
but what can they prove?
853
00:47:13,264 --> 00:47:16,999
People fall off of
boats all the time.
854
00:47:33,334 --> 00:47:36,085
It's up to you, Mona.
855
00:47:36,153 --> 00:47:38,713
You going to
take that boat trip?
856
00:47:42,743 --> 00:47:46,245
Mannix... you lied to me.
857
00:47:46,314 --> 00:47:47,612
She's still alive.
858
00:47:47,681 --> 00:47:49,214
Yeah, I know.
859
00:47:49,283 --> 00:47:50,782
If she pulls through,
860
00:47:50,851 --> 00:47:53,411
she'd be the second
witness against you.
861
00:47:55,573 --> 00:47:56,689
Where were you?
862
00:47:56,757 --> 00:47:58,357
What are you talking about?
863
00:47:58,426 --> 00:48:01,243
That night, Wednesday,
864
00:48:01,312 --> 00:48:04,396
the night I said I was with you.
865
00:48:34,461 --> 00:48:37,129
♪ ♪
866
00:48:52,246 --> 00:48:53,846
Only for a minute now.
867
00:48:53,915 --> 00:48:55,814
I'm against the whole
idea, but she insisted.
868
00:48:55,883 --> 00:48:58,283
And when she
insists... Yeah, I know.
869
00:49:08,328 --> 00:49:13,682
Joe... Right here.
870
00:49:13,750 --> 00:49:16,401
I'm sorry I caused
you so much...
871
00:49:17,838 --> 00:49:19,104
inconvenience.
872
00:49:19,173 --> 00:49:21,890
Always glad to be
of service to a client.
873
00:49:21,959 --> 00:49:25,711
Just how far does
the Mannix service go?
874
00:49:25,780 --> 00:49:27,697
Try me.
875
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:32,584
Could you kiss a
client good night?
876
00:49:41,962 --> 00:49:44,162
I call that service.
877
00:49:45,366 --> 00:49:47,732
Joe...
878
00:49:47,801 --> 00:49:52,287
are you absolutely sure
you couldn't use a secretary?
