Hi.

Oh!

Mm, that smells good.

Well, it should, at $30 an ounce.

I'm at the eggs.

Oh, go get dressed.

I'm going.

I'll miss my plane.

Oh, good.

Then you can spend the entire weekend.

And lose my job.

Clean out this place for me.

I don't really play.

Can you get my laundry?

I don't do laundry.

Can you get my socks?

I don't even do windows.

I don't have anything to wear.

I'm going.

I'm going to sleep over it.

Here.

Two minutes.

Now, where are you going?

Then from New York to London.

New York to London.

To Paris.

Paris.

Athens.

Rome.

And then back.

Okay.

You're missed.

Hi, Julie.

Hi, Beatrice.

How are you?

Hi, B. You're late again.

And you.

Me?

What?

I've been trying to get you on that dumb machine.

It's not a dumb machine, B. The machine costs $400.

This is Dan Tennant.

The bleep, please leave a message.

We'll bleep on that.

Beatrice, such language.

I just wanted Julie to get some sleep.

What's up?

We did a late show tonight.

My feet are killing me.

You poor baby.

I'll take care of your toes later.

Okay.

Could you do me a favor?

Could you take her to the airport for me?

Wait a minute.

On one condition.

He promised me this weekend.

I'll be there.

I promised.

You promised.

You promised.

Okay.

And after you take her to the airport, hold down the phone.

Oh, see Mitch Calf at the Maxim.

He'll be waiting for you at noon.

I got it.

How are the kids?

Getting up and wondering where breakfast is.

Tell them there's a Snoopy cartoon on tonight.

Channel 10.

Don't miss it.

Dan, don't forget about this weekend.

It's their anniversary.

Sis, I'll be there.

Give Mom and Dad a hug and kiss.

Okay.

Come here, you little...

You're brother's nuts.

You know that?

Yeah.

Paging Mr. Dufferin. Mr. Jeff Dufferin. Paging Mr. Vincent. Mr. Mike Vincent. Paging Mr.

Tanner. Mr. Dan Tanner. Tanner. How you doing? Hey, Cracker Jack. Just trying to make a living and

not get killed, huh? Oh, yeah. This is Dan Tanner. No, you call me, huh? Investigator.

Sorry, pal. I don't do divorce work. No. If you want to hang on a second. There he is.

Oh, boy. Have you got problems? Tell me something I don't know. Who is he? That's Tommy Serko.

Maybe he's been working clubs in the Middle East or Europe. I haven't seen Tommy in four or five

years. So? No, so. He's the best there is. It won't be easy. Listen, I told you I don't do

divorce work. Have you ever thought of a marriage council? No, I'm not trying to be funny. I beg

your pardon, sir. Are you Mr. Tanner? Just hang on one second. Sir, are you Mr. Tanner? I'll be right

with you. Excuse me. You see that? He always puts his hands in his pockets and grins like that.

He's getting warm. I'm sorry. What can I do for you? It's about our daughter Marilyn. Well,

she's our little girl. She's only 18. There he goes. How did he do that? I don't know, Mitch.

He's not using a key. I know, Mitch, and I'll lay you tend to one he's not drilling him either.

There's no holes. Listen, why don't you try Dear Abby? Yeah. Machine 27, $2,336. Mitch, I told you he was the best.

Oh, terrific. You want to talk to him? No, I don't want him to know it's Taylor. I don't believe it.

Mr. Tanner, about our little girl. So what happened to her? She's missing. She per misuse?

No. Into the drug scene, mental problems, she got a lot of cash? Sir, I just don't think you understand.

And my little girl doesn't drink or take any pills or dope? Look, lady, the kind of questions I'm

asking are the kind of stuff I might turn up if I go to work. I don't pull any punches and I only work

one way, my way. Perhaps you'd be happier with somebody else, huh? Mr. Tanner, look, I'm just

a stepfather. I mean, that dear child is no blood to me, but she is all we've got. Now, we came all

the way up here from Dallas. You came highly recommended from the state attorney's office.

He said you're the best private eye. I want you to find her.

Here. That's my daughter, Marilyn.

Okay, uh, $200 a day plus expenses and you got yourself an investigator.

Oh,

what will I have to do?

The John's name is Stefano. He just arrived from New Jersey, which is a terrible and cold place.

You're a warm hello surprise from his pals. He likes them young, sweet and energetic.

So do your best little girl number. Your little girl number again?

Marilyn, it's either that or you go back to your parents. Now, you don't want that to happen, do you?

It's a good little girl. Now go to work.

My name is Marilyn.

Marilyn. What a nice name for a nice little girl.

Look, I'm going to take a shower. I'll be back in a few minutes. All right? You wait for me.

Oh,

you know her? Yeah, I've seen her on the streets a couple of times.

I understand she's got a little girl's eye, complete with roller skates and bubble gum.

In fact, the word is that her act was a hit within two weeks.

You know, a couple of years older, she could be your sister. Dan, who are you working for?

Uh, her parents. About as down home as they make them, you know, real son of the earth types.

Can you give me a line on her? Sorry, old buddy, I got no line. A couple of chippies talked.

But it's my source. Congratulations, Dan. Last week you hit a new high. I'm going to get a drink

of water. Sit down. I'm thirsty, Bella. Your total complaints from outraged citizens who claim you

illegally destroyed their private property comes to $612. $612? That's impossible, Bella. Really?

Tuesday, you kicked in a door to surprise the gang at Kelby's Massage Parlor. One door and lock

$181.50. Yeah, well, you see that guy? Thursday, you threw a suitcase into the prop of a departing

light airplane that you didn't want to depart. That's one suitcase plus contents, $98 and one

prop, $200. They're very expensive, Bella. And then there's that dental bill from that phony security

guard that you punched out. Now, wait a second. That guy tried to rearrange my face with a baccarat

shoe. You want to fight it in court? I'll write you a check. Be more conventional. It may ruin your rep,

but it'll do wonders for your bank account. I love her hairdo. How much did she say? $612.

Yes. Uh, Dan, the word is she uses a Cupid motel.

Thanks, George.

Hey, Charlie, I brought you your favorite here, anchovies and onions.

What do you want? Can't I just bring your pizza, come to see you, say hello? Hello, what do you want?

You know what?

I didn't know that was your style. It's not. She got company. Figures. Mark's inside, Pimp's outside.

Consider me warned. Consider room 12. Thanks.

Rock him, sock him, hold him back. Rock him, sock him, get a sack.

That says what time's kickoff. Oh my God. What's your angle, Buster?

Who do you think you are? I'm sorry, I didn't know. Come on, sis, mom's got separate weight.

Please, I'm a married man. You don't tell your wife and I won't, huh? I won't. I won't say a word.

Please, honest. Who the hell do you think you are? Man, shining armor is going to save you from the

error of your ways. How do you expect to make the team if you don't stay in shape? Larry! Let's go, Ami! Larry!

He's sleeping. Can't you see he's sleeping? Let's go! Come on! Stop! You settled down.

And stay there! You're not a cop. Why? Private heat, working for your parents.

Oh, you're beautiful. Well, I've got a flash for you, Clyde. I'm not going back to that hell,

not for a minute. What do you call where we just came from, heaven? Cheerleader for Pete's sake.

Well, the jobs love it. I'm a star, baby. Star, huh? Is that what Larry Larry Johnson tells you?

Johnson? Sure, are you kidding me? Don't be so naive. I happen to be working for me. Yeah?

Yeah, I dumped two pimps before I picked him up.

Interesting place. Sit down. You want something to drink? No.

Vietnam mementos. Well, the place was bad, but the friends were good.

My loving folks tell you how many times I split before? Uh, they said twice. Try 14.

You got a problem? No. Look, number one, cut the sarcasm. I don't like sarcasm. Number two,

you got something you want to tell me. Tell it straight out. Spare me the lies and wisecracks.

Otherwise, we're just going to take a ride. You want a sandwich? No. All right. Straight out.

I can't go back there anymore. I really can't. Please, it's a wide awake nightmare and I can't

stand it, okay? Well, if you're 18, you're street legal, you do whatever you want. What's so terrible

at home? Nice people, right? Yeah, the way I read it, nice people.

Well, the guys been trying to hit on me since I was 15.

Cowboy Bob. My mother's fourth. Only her looks are fading, so he's the last. And he has roving

eyes. They roved my way. 15. If you know anything about runaways, you know that that's not

an untypical story. Go on. There's nowhere to go. My mother pretends she doesn't know.

It keeps Red Rover at home. Who brought you back before? Dallas cops.

State police. I talked to a couple of county shrinks.

I mean, I didn't know what to do. Do you understand that?

I don't know how you're supposed to be able to adjust to something like that.

What do the county guys do? They tried to get me out. But daddy's got Mama, so daddy's got Clout.

Why don't you do something else? Anything? Wait on tables. Because I can't make any money

waiting on tables. Look, I'm trying to get enough together to go to Los Angeles. I thought I'd get

into action. I'm not going to be able to get into action. I'm not going to be able to get

into Los Angeles. I thought I'd get into acting. I met these guys and they told me that if I...

All right.

Listen, I'll do anything you want. Please don't make me go back there to those people.

I'll go to jail. I'll go anywhere. Please.

You're calling them, aren't you? I'm just going to check your story out with a juvenile officer I know in Dallas.

Before you call them, if my story's true, what are you going to do?

I don't know.

Thanks. For what?

That's the first honest thing an adult's ever said to me.

I paid you your fee.

Hey, take your fee. Tanner. I've never done this before. Turn around on a client. I take money to

do a thing. It's done. Not this time. I'm gonna pull your ticket. I'm gonna bust you. You're gonna

bust nothing, pal. You misrepresented the action. The last thing I do is put that kid back in this

deviant zoo. Wait a minute. Who do you think you are? I want my daughter and I want her brought home.

Is it payoff to hang on to the last of your prize bulls here?

I mean I have.

Hey, Alan.

Oh!

Dan, is that you?

Don't talk to me.

Okay, talk to me.

Okay, talk, but don't move around until I scoop this.

You're Stygian?

Yeah, Beatrice called.

I had the walkout on this topless guitar player.

She was playing Malaguena. I was falling in love.

Probably changed my whole life.

Oh, ow.

Hey, who'd dent in your head?

Possibilities make a line around the block.

Did you stop by the house?

Yeah, Beatrice was there cleaning up.

Any word on Maryland?

No, but Highway Patrol reported that they found your car.

Oh, good.

In the desert.

Is this yours?

Yeah, it was.

I didn't like the color anyway.

Something I gotta show you.

It's like that toasted banana.

We didn't see her till Harry over there was putting on some burning embers.

He stumbled over.

You know her?

Yeah, I know her.

Who was she?

Just some kid.

Who, uh...

His name was, uh, Maryland.

Come on down.

Yeah, I'm coming.

Come on, new baby, let's go now.

We ain't got a whole day. Okay, boss?

One minute, a nice cold plunge pool, you'll feel as good as new.

Right, new baby, right?

I oughta patent this process.

I'm gonna get you a new one.

Come on, now, let's go. Everybody out. Come on.

What's it gonna be?

A pimp.

It all starts with a pimp.

So?

So we're gonna root him out, pal.

We're gonna make noise.

We're gonna make noise all around town.

Okay, so forget ginger place.

Put 20 on the nose for me on amnesia.

Damn. Hey, do me a favor.

Next time, hold the onions, will ya?

No, you do me a favor, Charlie.

Where's the little girl's pimp?

Damn.

He finds out I told you I'm dead.

I need it, Charlie. It's personal now.

When he woke up, he was all over the place.

He was all over the place.

He was all over the place.

Charlie, it's personal now.

When he woke up, he was so steamed he was screaming.

You stripped him of one of his chicks, and you can't do that.

He said he would take care of you and the girl.

Where is he?

Where is he, Charlie?

Catalpa Apartments.

It's got someplace out in the desert, too.

Thanks, Charlie.

You could get hurt.

I already am, Charlie. I already am.

I'm sorry.

Las Vegas Police Department. Sergeant Hall speaking.

Give me Bella.

Sergeant Archer, this is Dan Tanna.

Wonderful.

Bella, try to be nice.

Listen, better start me a new tab, Catalpa Apartments.

One door.

What kind of a door?

It's an inexpensive sliding glass door.

$200.

That much?

Don't break it.

I already broke it.

How much is a waterbed worth?

$300.

It's a very small waterbed.

$295.

And you better put down $200 for a crummy old rug.

Not a penny more.

Beatrice, I'm looking for an address on a Larry Larry Johnson.

Not the Catalpa Apartments. Someplace in the desert.

Get George's advice to give you Johnson's aliases...

and then run them through the public property records.

Then call Armand the water company.

Maybe he uses his right name on his water bill.

You got messages back up here on the machine.

Forget him. I want this guy.

Done, but then I gotta go home and bake a birthday cake for Jennifer.

Ah, that's a deal.

But will you call Charlene and have her fill in for you?

And have her pick me up some breakfast on the way and meet me at the house.

Hey, B, if that cake's chocolate, save me a hunk, huh? Roger, 10-4.

Done, tiger.

Remind me to pick up a present for B's kid, huh?

There's a store up ahead. You want to stop?

No, right now I need some wheels.

Come on, baby.

All right!

Take the one number between 6 and 8...

bet a buck and take it home in a truck.

Ah!

4, border point 4.

Get it down.

Hey, Rosie, I got a taxi.

Doc, are you crazy, man? Right in the middle of my road.

I'm hot, man. I don't want any more talk now.

Rosie, I need a car.

Fuck them to my lot.

The lot's closed.

I know that. I'm here, you know.

I said I want the 57T burden.

What the hell are you saying?

Got ripped off and got burned out.

It's open the lot tomorrow and we'll talk about it.

I need it, Rosie.

Man, you're breaking my road.

I need it.

Damn! You're a pain in my back, man.

I'm a pain in my back.

Here, 57T burden.

And it's gonna cost you plenty because it's a classic.

Send me a bill, Rosie. Thank you.

Okay.

Seven out, seven out.

I'll kill him, so help me.

I'll kill him, I'll kill him.

Where'd he go?

Hi, Dan.

Hi.

Charlene couldn't make it.

Your boyfriend's in town and she said he's the jealous type, so she sent me.

She said you wouldn't mind.

I don't mind.

My name's Angie.

Hi, Angie.

Made you breakfast.

Good, Angie.

This is good.

Hi, Sugar.

Charlie went down to the public property records and opened up early for you.

You owe him a favor.

He found Zilch.

Irma's not in yet at the water company.

Check your calls because there's one on there from Tom Crystal.

The Tom Crystal?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Oh, wow.

Can you get me his autograph?

Boy, I'd do anything to get his autograph.

Crystal's looking for a bodyguard and sent your liability insurance premiums are due tomorrow,

and so are the bond premiums.

And since I put the checks in the mail, which you gotta cover,

I suggest you call him back.

Earn some money, honey.

Do you like the bacon?

Oh, the bacon was very good.

Listen, uh...

Really?

Yeah, really.

Call Irma at the water company and...

Irma?

Irma?

Okay.

At the water company.

Irma.

I-R-M-A.

Okay.

Right, at the water companies.

And see if Larry Johnson gets a water bill, and if so, at what address.

Okay.

You do know how to use a phone and a tape deck.

Oh, sure.

Charlene briefed me on everything.

Everything?

Sure.

Isn't it exciting?

Ha-ha.

Crystal residence.

Let me talk to him.

Honey, we all don't just let any old folks talk to Mr. Crystal.

This is Tana.

He called me.

It's Tana.

Well, Mr. Tana, why didn't you say so, lover?

He is just dying to talk to you.

I mean, we have heard so many good things about you,

and Mr. Crystal really needs your protection.

I mean, I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I'm not gonna lie.

I really don't know which one I am.

I'm really sorry.

What could have hurt so badly?

Let's all die.

Why would you take up Mrs. Crystal's business

waiting for you out there with your bed?

Do you want me to go on?

No, Treasure.

Well, so, is Mr. Smith down, or is it just me?

Would you like to make a friend, or are you worried

you could escape from there?

I'm worried aboutcipline and emotional swings,

but any actions are not sure.

Well, tell me, maybe you can learn from what I learned.

Understand?

All I Would Like Is A Friend!

Any child out there who doesn't allow jamais

He answered phones until seven.

Seven?

Yeah.

Oh, gee, Dan.

I don't know.

I mean, I've got four shows to do starting at eight,

and it usually takes me hours to get psychologically

and mentally prepared to give a performance.

I mean, there's only 12 girls in that line,

and the person stands out.

Well, answer.

You don't need to get ready.

Once you are, it's one electrifying turn on you.

Generate light, excitement, an energy

that changes the world.

Oh, really?

Really.

Oh, and Beast Kid, Jennifer?

Uh-huh.

It's her birthday.

She likes dolls.

So do I.

Mm-hmm.

Uh-huh.

Bye.

Bye.

1,010 lead at 918.

Next, 1,010 lead.

You look kind of beat.

How long you been up?

48 hours running, George.

Thought I was on to something.

I was running down the home stretch, and now zip, nothing.

You know, I saw something like that once back in Chicago.

Southside dope dealer named Action Jackson.

First, they busted all his ribs so he couldn't move.

Then they took a tank lid and put it on his chest

and watched him drown in the bathtub.

Very charming.

So I got anything to do with the girl?

He told Charlie at the Cuba Motel

he was going to do us both.

Obviously, he wasn't a man of his word.

Unfortunately, he was batting 500 when they got him.

Uh-huh, old buddy.

He never got too bad at all.

You see, it's still just an estimate.

But according to the coroner, at the rate

his body temperature fell, he was dead two hours

before the girl was.

He was killed before the girl?

That's the way it went down, Dan.

OK, now let me put this together.

They worked on Johnson until he told him who pulled

the girl out of the motel.

They got my address, they picked up the girl,

and they dumped her in the desert.

All right, why?

How do I know, George?

Dan, wait a minute, old buddy.

Now look, let us handle it.

We've got the men, we've got the equipment.

Yeah, but I got the memory.

All right.

reactive Voc務 ticker

Now well, what a lighthouse.

Hey, Sarge, what's happening?

Got a lot. Where's Castigin?

I got him tailing Tommy Circo.

He's taking down slot machines

like they were giveaways at a bank opening.

Can you help me out?

What do you need?

I need a tail.

On who?

On me.

Well, this place can run itself

for a couple of days.

Good.

Operator, uh, credit card number 134791.

Can I use your phone?

You always do.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Operator, area code 3127690339.

Chicago Police Department.

Uh, Hank Atomack, please.

Yeah?

Now, is that the way your mother

taught you to answer the phone?

Hey, what's going on?

65 degrees and sunshine, hot shot.

Uh, listen, I'm tracking an M.O. recognition,

a guy by the name of Action Jackson.

He got all his ribs broke,

was laid out in the bathtub

with a tank top on his chest and drowned.

Can you pull the package out of the trunk?

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

I'm trying to get him out of the trunk.

Hi, you found Alan?

He's off today.

What are you drinking?

Nothing.

Where can I find him?

You can't.

And if you're not drinking, get lost.

The show ain't free.

Oh, I'm not watching it.

You know her?

Ain't you got ears?

Oh, I've got ears and eyes.

Now you got two miners drinking at the end of the bar.

You want to get busted for serving kids or you want to tell me if you know her?

Are you starting to get the picture?

Now this chick, Marilyn, worked this bar.

I want names, I want customers, and I want contacts.

I don't know nothing.

You got to talk to Fat Alan.

He'll be in tomorrow.

Well, I'll be back.

Tell him.

Do you have any idea what a Wurlitzer's worth?

I still think we should have shut out that guy's radios.

You're not going to believe this, this is the fourth time he's hit tonight.

Five, seven, a grand, and I don't know what he got in this jackpot.

What's he doing to him?

What do you think I am, a fortune teller?

I don't know what he's doing to him.

He walks up, drops in a coin, bada bing, jackpot.

Stick with him.

Mr. Tanner, I just know you and I are going to get along just famously.

I can tell.

I mean, really, I could tell on the phone when we first talked.

You're a Sagittarius with the moon and Aquarius, right?

Right?

I just knew it.

Look, why don't I go get you a drink and you can go talk to Mr. Crystal?

Sagittarius, that'd be bourbon, right?

Right.

Mr. Crystal?

You must be Tanner.

That's right.

Well, what do you think?

The place and the people.

Take your pick.

Yeah, it's very impressive.

It's the worst.

You think I like all this?

You think I need it?

There are rooms in this house I've never been in.

90% of the people here I never met.

It's my agents.

They tell me to keep up the image.

What's an image?

I knew who I am.

I've been in group therapy.

You, you're lucky.

You got change.

You know what I mean?

Different people, different places.

That's got to be the greatest.

Me?

I get up on stage every night, do the same act, night in, night out.

Well, what you do is intense each time, right?

Yeah, that's right.

That's true.

That's very true.

Hey, uh, hey, tell me you got yourself another job.

What?

Some friends, uh, something about a killing you're working on.

A girl, you know her?

No, I don't think so.

You working for a family?

No, myself.

I'm going to find out who did it.

You see, that's my reality.

I'm the truth seeker.

Hey, that's the high.

That's the high.

Me, if anybody's going to get killed, it makes me shiver.

You know, even in my house, when I see a fly, I got to catch it, hold it in my hands, take

it over to the window, and let it fly away free.

I believe in love.

That's nice.

If everybody loved everybody, it'd be beautiful, you know?

I know, I know.

And now you are going to transfer all this love you have to protect my body, huh?

That's right.

Love and, uh, $400 a day.

Hey, welcome to the family.

Nice to have you on board.

Well, it's good to be here.

See you.

Hey.

Shh.

Hey.

Think you could have gotten any closer?

You barely have to do it before Mr. Music made the call.

Yeah, this is Crystal.

Tana just left.

He's steamed about that Maryland kid getting chopped.

He's going for it, but he's going for it alone.

He's got no client.

He's on his own.

Yeah, but who'd he call?

No way to know.

There will be.

Hey, how'd you click into him so fast?

$400 a day?

I'm good, but I'm not that good.

It's got to be the noise we're making.

They're trying to take me out of the phony full tangent.

I can't believe what's happening.

What's the matter with these people?

This town is 97% booked most of the year, Daniel.

Hi, Floyd.

I ordered additions to this hotel 80 months ago.

Now you tell me there's a labor shortage.

Well, there's going to be a labor shortage.

You've got it.

And out of the three of us, two of us are going to go.

And you know who's not going.

Now look, if you can't find the people,

I'll find somebody that can.

You got it?

The leader girls from the Stardust here?

Don't ask me.

I'm not asking. You want to ask them.

Oh, why?

They wouldn't know it anyway.

Hey, you want to work with me?

I already worked with you.

You do?

Why am I the last to know?

What is it with you guys?

Hi, Mr. Roth.

Get rid of the tops.

Pay that guy $2,500 a week, and he thinks

they're coming up here to see a bird act.

Hi, Dan.

This guy's circle.

He's still hitting my machines?

Brilliantly.

He's taking $40,000 to $50,000 a week

out of his casinos in Las Vegas.

I don't know what he's doing to you,

Reno and Tahoe, and this time, it's strictly the slots.

Can you catch him?

Well, I got castigin on him full-time.

I'm videotaping the slot areas.

Daniel, can you catch him?

I don't think so.

Sammy wants to switch his dates with lies.

They tell him it's okay.

How's your murder?

You heard about it.

Everybody's heard about it.

Well, I'm pushing, waiting for some of the pushback.

Well, don't look at me.

Daniel, give up on that murdered girl.

There's no percentage of it.

I'm a lousy businessman.

You're telling me, which reminds me,

you're still working for me.

Remember that.

When are you guys gonna give up that warehouse of mine, huh?

Hey, where are you gonna find someone

to guard a half a million dollar

hood of feathers and tassels for nothing?

You're not only smart, but you're colorful.

Come on.

I sure love Las Vegas.

It's an honest town.

Hope you can keep it that way.

Well, I'm dying to be by.

Yeah.

You want me to fly you back?

No, I think I can walk.

See you later.

Charlene, honey, you make a great breakfast,

but what I really needed is somebody to answer the phones.

So you want me to call Angie again?

Who's Angie?

Oh, Angie, yeah.

What time is Beatrice coming over?

About 2 o'clock.

She's been on the phone all night.

No, Angie's fine.

Okay.

I gotta go.

Oh, no.

If my boyfriend finds out,

I can't be here to cook you breakfast.

Yeah.

He'll kill me.

Okay?

Okay.

You're, uh...

Standing on my tail.

Hello?

Dan?

Yeah.

Something's going on.

You better get over here right away.

Where's here?

Circus, circus.

What do you think I...

Oh, okay.

I got it.

Got it.

I'll be right there.

All right, where is he?

Right there.

Let me see.

When you look at that,

he's using washers on a silver dollar machine.

Give me the glasses.

Oh, he's gone see now.

Here's our bus.

Take him.

Take him.

Cute?

Huh?

I was only kidding.

It's not a washer.

He painted a black spot on a silver dollar.

I felt someone out there.

I wanted to see who was tailing me.

How you doing, Daniel?

I'm doing you, Tommy.

That's how I'll do it.

And you'll lock this ring into a brick wall.

I'm gonna get you.

No way.

Never.

I forgot more than you'll ever know.

You can't touch me.

Go ahead.

Lock me up.

Put the bench on me.

I'll sue you for false arrest.

All right, Tommy.

You're the best.

You're terrific.

I love you.

And I know you're doing something.

I don't know what it is.

But I'm gonna get you.

Want to bet?

You're feeling the heat, baby.

Really feeling the heat.

Whoever you are.

Hi, Dan.

This is Angie.

I know, Angie.

Talk to me, Angie.

Okay.

A Lieutenant Adamec called.

He said the way Mr. Action Jackson got it in 1964 and the way Mr. Larry Larry got it

last week, it was exactly the same M-O?

M-O, right.

You were both drowned in a bathtub.

In 1964, they had four suspects.

They were reasonably sure did it, but they could never nail them?

One's dead.

One's in Joliet.

One's they don't know where, and one's out our way.

Hugh Patulski, a sometimes short order cook, a sometimes Finnish monsieur.

Do you want his vitals?

No, Angie.

I know this guy.

That's baby Huey.

I got a massage from him the other day.

Did I do good again?

It boggles the mind.

Is that good?

You got it, Joey?

Yeah, boss, yeah.

If anybody sees me do this, I'm dead.

You hear me?

I'm dead.

Yeah, yeah, right.

Thanks, Joey.

All right, boss.

How did you figure it?

Well, if Huey did the job on Larry, Larry must have been working for somebody,

and he must have made contact within the last week.

I've got his phone bill and his massage register, and that's my list.

Not bad.

You got 37 duds and one possible.

Nate Stephenson.

That's the AKA of a guy in New Jersey.

One Nathan Stefano.

I'll put the tape on, would you?

It's fine.

Just put the tape on.

You're gonna make somebody a wonderful mother, you know that?

I'm what?

Not you, her.

Who, her?

Oh, don't ask. I'm taping this.

You? I should be taping this.

Anyway, Stefano and his guy Huey took a fall together back in 1960.

They were booked for hijacking a load of precious metals, platinum.

Never got past the prelim.

So they go way back.

I don't know what he's into now.

We'll find out.

What I don't understand is if Stefano had a beef with Larry, Larry,

he might have killed the girl trying to find out where Larry, Larry was,

but that's not the way it went down.

Larry, Larry was killed before the girl.

He couldn't have killed her. It doesn't compute.

Then I suggest you reprogram it.

I intend to read Stefano's vitals into the tape.

Are you short-swept?

No, sweetheart, they're not. They probably should be, but they're not.

Stefano, description.

White male adult, 5'8", 220 pounds.

Thanks, pal.

You got it.

Now, listen, when Beatrice gets here,

have her called counsel at the Justice Department

and on his profile on Stefano, his current business, his friends,

activities, the works.

What about the sandwich?

I've had enough.

What about your pants?

They already ate.

Hey, boss.

Hey, baby, you. You fixed me up.

I haven't slept in three days and three nights.

Yeah? How's business?

How come you're always looking at those girls up there?

Well, you see, I work on so many fat girls,

I don't know how to get them.

I've had enough.

You're a good man, you know?

I've had enough.

Hey, boss, you're a good man.

Well, you see, I work on so many fat and flabby old men

that every now and then I have to kind of remind myself

there's still women in the world, you know?

Hey, that reminds me, uh, how's your old buddy Nate?

Nate who?

Nate Stephenson, Stefano,

you know, that old buddy of yours from Chicago.

Oh!

Oh, you dummy.

You've been the kind of things, haven't you?

Ow!

I tell you what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna shove the blood to your brain.

Everybody's gonna say, my, my,

that poor young man having a stroke at his age,

because that's exactly what it's gonna look like

in just about two minutes.

And just relax.

Relax.

And if you promise to go away quiet,

I'll see you in two minutes.

Go away quiet, I'll see you a lullaby.

Ha ha ha!

Charlie!

Hey, boss.

Ow!

Ow!

What am I doing?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I was after this guy.

What?

I said I'm sorry.

Say again.

I said I love you.

Mwah!

I'm so sure of it.

Hi, Tommy!

Oh!

Oh!

I got you, pal, and I know how you're doing it.

Yes.

You...

You ought to be ashamed of yourself.

You almost broke my ear drums.

And you almost broke the backyard, horse thief.

You're using a phony hearing aid,

and you got a receiving unit right here in your belly,

and you're listening to these machines like a safe-cracker

listen to tumblers, and I got you.

Okay.

So you figured it out.

The device, not how I use it.

I can keep it up, Daniel.

It's like a system. It's not illegal.

It doesn't matter because within the hour,

I'm gonna have an electronic jammer set up,

and whatever you hear is gonna be gone

in a blizzard of static, because I got you.

So why don't you go bug Monte Carlo for a while, huh?

Okay, Daniel.

You win.

Hey, you know,

you're pretty good, kid.

Damn good.

Good as you?

No one's as good as me!

Oh, Tommy!

I shall return.

I shall be waiting.

Go.

I got your profile on Stefano from the Justice Department.

Stefano is a loan shark out of Newark.

Three million dollars or so on the street

pulling down a big of 30,000 a week.

He likes to deal rough.

But here's the big one, baby. He's into showbiz.

Ego trip. He loves names.

And he makes a lot of loans to show folk in trouble.

You got a location on Stefano? Any local address?

No, nothing.

Okay, B, I know I can get it.

Oh, hi there.

Hi, sugar.

You can't go marching in there like that.

You better leave, sugar. It's a bad day for terraces.

Hey, how you doing, pal?

Where's your buddy Stefano?

What are you talking about?

What am I talking about?

Why is it no one ever knows what I'm talking about?

I know every penny you owe and who you owe it to.

You're in hock-up to your shorts

to a loan shark with a record.

Now, I pass that word around town

there's not a hotel in Las Vegas that'll hire you.

You won't work.

Now, listen, you! Wait a second!

Let me run that by you again.

You won't work.

Now, I want to know where Stefano is.

And right now, you got to be more afraid of me than you are of him.

Hello?

Beatrice.

Are you all right? I've been waiting to hear from you.

What's going on?

Now, get Harlan Tooley, get to Stygian

and tell him it's going down at the second tee at the DI.

Where?

Just tell him.

Jennifer's still out waiting for you to wish her a happy birthday,

so don't you go in and get yourself missing.

What, and disappoint Jennifer? Not a chance.

What do we got?

A touch of the old days, pal, a touch of the old days.

Now, listen, I should probably call the cops,

but if we use the power wagon like the old half track, click.

Stefano?

Anybody want to pass?

They're in the gate.

And they're off.

Here's Buffalo and Newark.

All right.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Let's go.

What the hell's wrong with you?

Get away from me!

Who are you?

What did I ever do to you?

You're harassing me.

You're going to be in jail for this.

What?

I'm going to kill you.

You're going to kill me?

You're going to kill me?

I'm going to kill you.

You're going to kill me?

You've been victimizing me.

You're not even a cop.

I'm a citizen.

This is a citizen's arrest.

Citizen's arrest?

You're crazy. You know that?

You're crazy.

Why?

Why? Why what? I'm asking you why.

What did that girl do to you?

She took things that were mine.

What things?

My wallet.

She stole my wallet.

Your wallet?

You killed a girl because she took your wallet?

There were things inside my wallet.

Take it.

Take anything you want. Just leave me alone.

What did she take?

My credit cards. She stole my credit cards.

With all my accounts written on the inside.

Wait a minute.

Listen.

Files, microfilm,

they were all laminated inside the cards.

See?

My records were inside the credit cards.

She thought she stole my master charge.

She stole my whole business.

A million dollar business.

A million dollar business.

Can you understand that?

No, look, here.

I'll pay you, okay?

Just leave me alone. Let me be.

Who are you?

I'm the ghost of Christmas past, Turkey.

I'm the Lone Ranger

and I'm gonna nail you.

Come on.

Why?

Why?

You broke the rules of my house.

So sue me. Call a policeman.

Here, take my money.

I don't want your money.

You're killing me.

You're trying to kill me.

You're trying to kill me.

You all right, Dan?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I called Nelson on a homicide scene once he got down here.

Good.

I'm going home.

Hey.

I got a seat here.

I'm gonna go get some food.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

I got a seat here.

You don't know an all night toy store, do you?

No, but I'm sure you can find one.

And it better be a discount store.

Why?

Because in a few minutes the police are gonna be here.

And Bella's gonna find out about the house you broke.

Broke a house.

I'm gonna be right back.

I'm gonna be right back.

I'm gonna be right back.
