1
00:00:02,067 --> 00:00:04,144
It can be pretty tough
if she doesn't get what she wants.
2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,271
- Obviously she wanted you.
- Now she's after you.
3
00:00:06,526 --> 00:00:08,517
Tonight on "Murder she wrote "...
4
00:00:08,852 --> 00:00:11,366
Silent alarm!
Dennis, you're losing your touch.
5
00:00:11,619 --> 00:00:13,575
- He threatened to kill me.
- Was he serious?
6
00:00:13,784 --> 00:00:15,775
He said I'd never live
to enjoy my freedom.
7
00:00:15,950 --> 00:00:20,819
You get sideways of an irate husband
and I have to clean up your mess.
8
00:00:20,923 --> 00:00:23,676
The man threatened her life
and nearly made good on it.
9
00:00:25,054 --> 00:00:26,089
Don't move!
10
00:00:26,377 --> 00:00:27,366
Dennis!
11
00:01:19,275 --> 00:01:20,549
Hello again!
12
00:01:20,719 --> 00:01:23,358
All afternoon I've been fighting
the War of the Roses...
13
00:01:23,406 --> 00:01:24,964
with some Japanese beetles.
14
00:01:25,170 --> 00:01:30,198
So far the beetles have been winning
but all that is coming to halt.
15
00:01:30,384 --> 00:01:31,499
I hope.
16
00:01:31,868 --> 00:01:34,143
I have a new story that I think
you'll find interesting.
17
00:01:34,755 --> 00:01:37,110
It involves my dear friend
Dennis Stanton.
18
00:01:37,242 --> 00:01:39,358
You remember Dennis.
The one time jewel thief...
19
00:01:39,568 --> 00:01:41,160
who is now working
as an investigator...
20
00:01:41,212 --> 00:01:43,851
for a major San Francisco
casualty company.
21
00:01:44,260 --> 00:01:46,694
His latest adventure began a month ago...
22
00:01:46,907 --> 00:01:49,296
at an elegant restaurant
in the heart of the city.
23
00:01:49,594 --> 00:01:52,267
A party was being thrown by
one of his closest friends,
24
00:01:52,441 --> 00:01:55,831
an ex professional tennis player,
Ryan Donovan.
25
00:02:00,021 --> 00:02:02,489
Since I still don't know
what prompted this occasion,
26
00:02:02,628 --> 00:02:05,188
I will merely wish you
a happy occasion.
27
00:02:05,355 --> 00:02:06,868
To your very good health Ryan.
28
00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:09,673
May you enjoy it long after
your backhand has deserted you.
29
00:02:10,007 --> 00:02:12,282
Thanks Dennis. My backhand
deserted me years ago.
30
00:02:12,453 --> 00:02:13,602
Why do you think I left the tour?
31
00:02:14,900 --> 00:02:17,573
I thought you'd gotten too old to
run around... after tennis balls.
32
00:02:19,191 --> 00:02:20,704
You guys know this fellow
actually beat me once?
33
00:02:20,915 --> 00:02:22,792
6 years ago,
back when I could still play.
34
00:02:23,241 --> 00:02:25,311
- He whipped my butt.
- My finest hour.
35
00:02:25,487 --> 00:02:28,684
Next day I stopped playing altogether
and for the past 6 years I could say...
36
00:02:28,816 --> 00:02:33,332
the last time I played tennis
I beat Ryan Donovan.
37
00:02:33,588 --> 00:02:37,263
So what's the scoop Ryan?
What are we celebrating?
38
00:02:37,959 --> 00:02:39,187
My freedom.
39
00:02:39,363 --> 00:02:42,321
After 3 years, Alison and I
decided to call it quits.
40
00:02:42,932 --> 00:02:44,888
Looks like you've got
some competition Dennis.
41
00:02:51,515 --> 00:02:54,109
That I'm afraid would be no contest.
I concede already.
42
00:02:54,843 --> 00:02:56,117
Excuse me.
43
00:02:58,934 --> 00:03:00,606
I thought I saw a familiar face!
44
00:03:01,581 --> 00:03:02,980
Hello Dennis.
45
00:03:03,426 --> 00:03:06,020
- Christina, you look marvelous.
- Thank you.
46
00:03:06,193 --> 00:03:09,230
A few pounds here and there.
I've been working out.
47
00:03:09,722 --> 00:03:10,916
The last time I saw you was...
48
00:03:11,046 --> 00:03:13,924
the reception for the Canadian
Prime Minister. When was that?
49
00:03:14,134 --> 00:03:15,533
That was over a year ago.
50
00:03:15,978 --> 00:03:17,252
Where's Ben?
51
00:03:17,663 --> 00:03:18,937
He's not here.
52
00:03:19,828 --> 00:03:21,307
I love that song.
53
00:03:21,994 --> 00:03:23,109
Care to dance?
54
00:03:23,558 --> 00:03:25,514
I'd be delighted.
55
00:03:26,726 --> 00:03:29,240
So, what about you?
You're alone?
56
00:03:30,296 --> 00:03:31,365
Not anymore.
57
00:03:32,582 --> 00:03:35,142
It's amazing you can be so allusive...
58
00:03:35,228 --> 00:03:38,220
- and still stay so attractive.
- Perhaps one depends on the other.
59
00:03:40,843 --> 00:03:42,276
Dear sweet Dennis...
60
00:04:02,219 --> 00:04:05,017
- Would you like to come up?
- No, no. I must get back.
61
00:04:05,066 --> 00:04:06,545
Please Dennis.
62
00:04:07,071 --> 00:04:08,424
I'd like to talk.
63
00:04:10,119 --> 00:04:11,313
Alright.
64
00:04:14,972 --> 00:04:16,849
Ben and I have been
separated for weeks now.
65
00:04:17,178 --> 00:04:19,373
We had a terrible fight.
Bared it all out.
66
00:04:19,624 --> 00:04:21,296
- There's no going back.
- I'm sorry.
67
00:04:21,549 --> 00:04:25,019
I've always liked Ben.
He has a certain charming earthiness.
68
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,239
He's a slob.
69
00:04:27,845 --> 00:04:29,642
It was never any good between us.
70
00:04:30,051 --> 00:04:31,530
God knows I tried.
71
00:04:32,738 --> 00:04:35,775
I must have been out of my mind
showing up at Ryan's party tonight.
72
00:04:36,909 --> 00:04:39,184
I guess I just wanted to prove
to myself that I was...
73
00:04:39,275 --> 00:04:41,994
still desirable as a woman.
74
00:04:42,724 --> 00:04:44,521
There's never been
any question about that.
75
00:04:44,930 --> 00:04:46,568
Dear sweet Dennis...
76
00:04:46,895 --> 00:04:48,886
always the right response
at the right moment.
77
00:04:49,742 --> 00:04:52,256
Once in a while I even
detect a note of sincerity.
78
00:04:54,635 --> 00:04:56,193
I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.
79
00:04:56,801 --> 00:04:58,200
It's just that...
80
00:04:58,846 --> 00:05:01,883
I've spent 4 years trying
to make a relationship work.
81
00:05:03,017 --> 00:05:06,009
Well I guess that's something you
haven't had much experience with.
82
00:05:06,185 --> 00:05:07,174
On the contrary,
83
00:05:07,228 --> 00:05:11,460
I spent 24 years working to make
a wonderful marriage even better.
84
00:05:12,361 --> 00:05:13,714
Dennis, I didn't know.
85
00:05:14,286 --> 00:05:15,878
Elisabeth and I were young,
too young probably.
86
00:05:16,091 --> 00:05:18,047
The early years were difficult,
87
00:05:19,139 --> 00:05:20,333
but we learned to adapt.
88
00:05:21,104 --> 00:05:23,413
After a while I came to depend
on her for everything.
89
00:05:24,152 --> 00:05:25,824
I couldn't imagine life without her.
90
00:05:26,999 --> 00:05:28,557
Then the doctor told us...
91
00:05:30,208 --> 00:05:31,766
she was going to die.
92
00:05:34,098 --> 00:05:36,089
It was long and it was painful...
93
00:05:37,747 --> 00:05:41,057
and when it was over I thanked
God for releasing her from her agony.
94
00:05:45,207 --> 00:05:47,084
I'm so sorry.
95
00:05:48,054 --> 00:05:49,328
Oh don't be.
96
00:05:51,222 --> 00:05:52,814
I have wonderful memories.
97
00:05:53,588 --> 00:05:54,987
In that sense I'm blessed.
98
00:05:55,794 --> 00:05:57,386
But would I do it again,
with someone else?
99
00:05:57,639 --> 00:05:58,788
I don't know.
100
00:05:59,764 --> 00:06:01,083
I'm not sure.
101
00:06:02,010 --> 00:06:05,764
I think I'm afraid it would
never be the same again.
102
00:06:07,705 --> 00:06:10,822
I'm sorry. You wanted to talk
and I've done all the talking.
103
00:06:11,274 --> 00:06:12,832
Don't be silly.
104
00:06:16,528 --> 00:06:18,917
- I think I'd better go.
- Please don't.
105
00:06:19,736 --> 00:06:20,930
Christina...
106
00:06:21,822 --> 00:06:25,019
I need someone with me tonight.
I'm not asking for more than that.
107
00:06:45,764 --> 00:06:47,083
Well good morning.
108
00:06:47,288 --> 00:06:48,926
Or should I say good afternoon?
109
00:06:49,012 --> 00:06:51,321
Back from lunch so soon,
it's only 3 o'clock.
110
00:06:51,579 --> 00:06:54,377
I had to get my dress for
my cousin Bernice's wedding.
111
00:06:54,747 --> 00:06:55,736
I'm a bridesmaid,
112
00:06:56,031 --> 00:06:58,943
that makes 14 straight
performances in supporting role.
113
00:06:59,039 --> 00:07:00,028
But who's counting?
114
00:07:00,282 --> 00:07:01,954
Mr. Butler was looking
for you this morning.
115
00:07:02,127 --> 00:07:04,436
Probably wants my report on
the Drabecki case.
116
00:07:04,573 --> 00:07:07,451
Among other things and
his mood was not pleasant.
117
00:07:07,581 --> 00:07:10,015
When is it ever?
Here we are.
118
00:07:10,268 --> 00:07:14,307
I have to interview
an antique dealer in Carmel...
119
00:07:14,439 --> 00:07:15,758
and it's a lovely day for a drive.
120
00:07:16,444 --> 00:07:17,672
Is that an invitation?
121
00:07:18,569 --> 00:07:20,924
Sorry. I only have
room in my car for two.
122
00:07:21,778 --> 00:07:23,848
Business with pleasure.
123
00:07:24,024 --> 00:07:25,059
Who is it this time?
124
00:07:25,227 --> 00:07:28,185
Rhoda dear, allow me to maintain
a little air of mystery.
125
00:07:28,595 --> 00:07:29,948
Oh sure, freeze me out.
126
00:07:30,119 --> 00:07:32,758
Just wait until the next time
you want me to tell some babe...
127
00:07:32,847 --> 00:07:34,644
you've been called away
to Kuala Lumpur.
128
00:07:40,186 --> 00:07:42,541
Be a dear, if Robert
comes looking for me...
129
00:07:42,873 --> 00:07:45,990
tell him I'm hot on
the trail of the Hope diamond.
130
00:07:46,362 --> 00:07:49,638
- I didn't know it was missing.
- It isn't, but Robert doesn't know.
131
00:07:51,615 --> 00:07:55,085
I came on at 9. Mrs. Hellinger
was gone when I got here.
132
00:07:55,505 --> 00:07:56,494
Are you sure?
133
00:07:56,668 --> 00:07:57,817
Sure I'm sure.
134
00:07:58,433 --> 00:08:00,151
Some guy sent her a dozen roses,
135
00:08:00,398 --> 00:08:02,389
so I called her up to tell her.
No answer.
136
00:08:02,604 --> 00:08:03,832
I still got 'em
over there on the desk.
137
00:08:04,048 --> 00:08:06,801
- Did you check her apartment?
- What for? Out is out.
138
00:08:07,296 --> 00:08:09,764
She said last night, she was
going to sleep late this morning.
139
00:08:10,745 --> 00:08:13,305
You must be Dennis.
140
00:08:13,833 --> 00:08:16,301
I looked at the card.
I like to keep up on things.
141
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,710
Why don't we check her apartment,
just to be sure?
142
00:08:19,047 --> 00:08:20,082
Sure of what?
143
00:08:20,290 --> 00:08:22,758
Sometime during the night she didn't
suffer from a cerebral incident,
144
00:08:22,857 --> 00:08:24,734
or a coronary occlusion or worse...
145
00:08:25,062 --> 00:08:26,051
You know Mac...
146
00:08:26,306 --> 00:08:27,864
- Dennis.
- Dennis.
147
00:08:28,271 --> 00:08:29,829
You've got a morbid imagination.
148
00:08:35,770 --> 00:08:38,603
- Christina.
- Don't touch anything. Alright?
149
00:08:39,700 --> 00:08:41,133
I shouldn't be doing this.
150
00:08:58,028 --> 00:08:59,222
What are you doing?
151
00:09:00,073 --> 00:09:01,791
Pop are you there? It's Danny.
152
00:09:02,881 --> 00:09:05,190
Look, if youre there pick up.
I know it's early but I gotta talk...
153
00:09:05,247 --> 00:09:06,885
That's a private conversation.
154
00:09:07,372 --> 00:09:10,170
Look it's 7:30 on Wednesday morning...
155
00:09:10,380 --> 00:09:12,735
Tax guys were here again yesterday
said you had an appointment with them.
156
00:09:13,067 --> 00:09:15,456
I stalled them but
they're not real happy.
157
00:09:15,514 --> 00:09:16,833
So get back to me, ok Pop?
158
00:09:27,785 --> 00:09:30,299
Consolidated Casualty,
Dennis Stanton's office.
159
00:09:30,553 --> 00:09:31,781
It's me dear heart.
160
00:09:32,077 --> 00:09:33,226
There you are.
161
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,038
I'm on my way back from Carmel.
162
00:09:35,486 --> 00:09:38,558
- Anything happening?
- Aside from messages, not much.
163
00:09:39,095 --> 00:09:41,131
Robert Butler, Robert Butler.
164
00:09:41,261 --> 00:09:42,535
Robert Butler.
165
00:09:43,145 --> 00:09:45,101
The fourth time he called
he left a message.
166
00:09:45,191 --> 00:09:48,740
Unrepeatable.
And two calls from a Mrs. Hellinger.
167
00:09:49,041 --> 00:09:50,838
- Did she leave a number?
- Yeah, right here.
168
00:09:51,367 --> 00:09:53,278
- Hello?
- Christina, it's Dennis.
169
00:09:53,613 --> 00:09:57,128
- Dennis, thank God.
- What is it? What's happened?
170
00:09:57,623 --> 00:10:01,298
It's Ben, my husband.
I've got to see you right away.
171
00:10:01,433 --> 00:10:04,106
- Of course. Where are you?
- A motel in Tiburon.
172
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,231
Just off the interstate.
Belevedere's.
173
00:10:06,526 --> 00:10:08,403
It's the first Bungalow.
You can't miss it.
174
00:10:08,772 --> 00:10:11,127
I'm about an hour and a half away
but I'll get there as soon as I can.
175
00:10:28,062 --> 00:10:29,290
Dennis.
176
00:10:30,990 --> 00:10:32,105
Come in quick.
177
00:10:33,396 --> 00:10:36,069
- Let me see your face.
- No, please.
178
00:10:36,765 --> 00:10:38,995
- You should see a doctor.
- No. I'm alright. Really.
179
00:10:39,131 --> 00:10:41,645
Who did this? Ben?
180
00:10:43,623 --> 00:10:45,454
After last night I went to see him.
181
00:10:46,470 --> 00:10:48,859
He's been staying in our place
in San Rafael these last weeks.
182
00:10:49,438 --> 00:10:51,998
I wanted to have it out with him.
183
00:10:52,365 --> 00:10:56,677
I had no idea what a sick,
possessive man he is.
184
00:10:59,825 --> 00:11:01,656
Last night may not
have meant much to you.
185
00:11:03,956 --> 00:11:05,548
It meant everything to me.
186
00:11:06,562 --> 00:11:07,756
And to me.
187
00:11:10,172 --> 00:11:11,651
Thank you for saying that.
188
00:11:11,976 --> 00:11:13,125
No. I mean it.
189
00:11:14,303 --> 00:11:16,976
You're husband's not only a bully,
he's a fool as well.
190
00:11:18,032 --> 00:11:19,863
I told him I wanted a divorce.
191
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,548
Don't worry Dennis.
I have no designs on you.
192
00:11:26,053 --> 00:11:29,489
But you are the key that has
suddenly opened the door,
193
00:11:29,542 --> 00:11:30,736
to the rest of my life.
194
00:11:32,229 --> 00:11:34,663
When you told him,
is that when he struck you?
195
00:11:36,841 --> 00:11:38,399
He threatened to kill me.
196
00:11:39,288 --> 00:11:40,323
Was he serious?
197
00:11:40,491 --> 00:11:44,006
Yes. He said he couldn't stop me
from divorcing me but that...
198
00:11:44,421 --> 00:11:46,651
I'd never live to enjoy my freedom.
199
00:11:48,752 --> 00:11:50,390
I think we'd better go to the police.
200
00:11:50,677 --> 00:11:53,316
What are they gonna do?
Protect me for the rest of my life?
201
00:11:53,645 --> 00:11:54,634
Christina.
202
00:11:55,369 --> 00:11:58,725
Even if they could, they don't
get involved in domestic quarrels.
203
00:11:58,939 --> 00:12:00,167
Christina.
204
00:12:00,703 --> 00:12:02,773
Threatening someone
with murder is a crime.
205
00:12:03,190 --> 00:12:06,068
The least the police can
do is to put Ben on notice.
206
00:12:06,318 --> 00:12:07,512
Keep him at bay.
207
00:12:08,443 --> 00:12:11,241
I doubt very much if he wants to
spend the rest of his life in jail.
208
00:12:11,612 --> 00:12:13,728
Please, you must protect yourself.
209
00:12:16,304 --> 00:12:17,373
Alright.
210
00:12:17,908 --> 00:12:19,705
But it won't be just for me.
211
00:12:20,635 --> 00:12:22,910
He may know about us,
about last night.
212
00:12:23,803 --> 00:12:26,192
He had a lot of friends at the party.
Someone may have told him.
213
00:12:26,370 --> 00:12:30,079
He said things, veiled things,
as if he knew something.
214
00:12:31,824 --> 00:12:33,018
Come on.
215
00:12:46,542 --> 00:12:49,978
- Were you followed to the motel?
- No. I don't think so. Why?
216
00:12:50,633 --> 00:12:52,066
We've picked up company.
217
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,072
- That's Ben's car.
- Are you sure?
218
00:12:55,245 --> 00:12:57,122
Of course I'm sure. Speed up.
219
00:12:57,331 --> 00:12:58,320
And let him know we're on to him?
220
00:12:58,373 --> 00:13:02,491
No. There's a police station
about ten blocks from here.
221
00:13:02,785 --> 00:13:05,379
I may lure him to the door.
Operator, this is an emergency.
222
00:13:05,793 --> 00:13:07,863
Connect me right away
with San Rafael police.
223
00:13:08,119 --> 00:13:09,347
Dennis!
224
00:13:17,744 --> 00:13:20,463
- Are you alright?
- Yeah I think so.
225
00:13:30,417 --> 00:13:32,533
- Sure it was your husband's car?
- Yes.
226
00:13:33,023 --> 00:13:34,615
- Did you see the license plates?
- I did Lieutenant.
227
00:13:34,828 --> 00:13:36,580
Personalized, BJH 60.
228
00:13:36,793 --> 00:13:39,546
His initials. He bought that car
for himself for his 60th birthday.
229
00:13:39,841 --> 00:13:41,194
Ishimini!
230
00:13:43,771 --> 00:13:44,760
Yes sir?
231
00:13:44,974 --> 00:13:48,683
Get an APB on the is car,
late model dark Mercedes.
232
00:13:48,905 --> 00:13:51,863
He's been staying the last few weeks
at our place in San Rafael.
233
00:13:52,875 --> 00:13:55,673
Ishimini, call San Rafael,
check in about it.
234
00:13:56,043 --> 00:13:58,159
Mrs. Hellinger, do you want to
go with Officer Ishimini...
235
00:13:58,409 --> 00:14:01,367
give him a description of
your husband, address, etc..
236
00:14:01,818 --> 00:14:03,934
- Certainly.
- Thank you, this way ma'am.
237
00:14:08,756 --> 00:14:11,224
Who do you think I am?
A social worker?
238
00:14:11,443 --> 00:14:12,671
Now now Perry.
You're blood pressure.
239
00:14:12,847 --> 00:14:16,203
You get yourself sideways of an
irate husband and I'm supposed to...
240
00:14:16,416 --> 00:14:17,690
to clean up your mess.
Is that how it goes?
241
00:14:17,780 --> 00:14:20,419
The man threatened her life and
nearly made good. That's your job.
242
00:14:20,547 --> 00:14:24,062
What do you want me to do?
Put a round the clock guard on her?
243
00:14:24,116 --> 00:14:26,789
Even it I wanted to
I don't have the manpower...
244
00:14:26,883 --> 00:14:30,319
It was an attempt on her life.
I have dents in my car to prove it.
245
00:14:30,814 --> 00:14:33,408
Gee, I hope you've got
a good insurance company.
246
00:14:33,862 --> 00:14:35,215
You're not gonna do anything?
247
00:14:35,466 --> 00:14:36,455
Not exactly.
248
00:14:36,589 --> 00:14:39,308
I'm gonna pick this guy up, if I can.
249
00:14:39,877 --> 00:14:41,833
Then I'm gonna get his side
of the story,
250
00:14:42,203 --> 00:14:46,242
then I'll decide what, if anything
I'm gonna do about it.
251
00:14:47,056 --> 00:14:51,493
As always Perry, your
understanding leaves me awestruck.
252
00:14:51,949 --> 00:14:56,067
You're the one who sneaked into
the wrong bedroom, not me.
253
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:57,553
Have a nice evening.
254
00:15:05,183 --> 00:15:06,855
How long will you be with us
Mr. Schneider?
255
00:15:07,068 --> 00:15:08,057
A day or so.
256
00:15:08,311 --> 00:15:10,905
I'll just leave
the check out date open.
257
00:15:11,199 --> 00:15:13,588
Will that be a king size bed,
or two doubles?
258
00:15:13,765 --> 00:15:14,993
Makes no difference.
259
00:15:16,773 --> 00:15:18,286
May I see a major credit card?
260
00:15:18,899 --> 00:15:21,936
Why don't you put this on account.
261
00:15:25,275 --> 00:15:28,984
- Luggage?
- Airline lost it.
262
00:15:29,607 --> 00:15:30,881
Of course.
263
00:15:32,655 --> 00:15:36,364
It's room, 1233.
The elevators are to your left.
264
00:15:37,026 --> 00:15:39,221
- Have a nice evening.
- Same to you.
265
00:15:49,378 --> 00:15:52,017
- Very nice.
- I'd rather have gone to your place.
266
00:15:52,225 --> 00:15:54,693
I'm the only one who knows
you're booked here, Mrs. Schneider.
267
00:15:55,233 --> 00:15:57,110
Let's keep it that way,
until I talk to your husband.
268
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,790
It'll be very dreary,
but don't leave this room.
269
00:15:59,885 --> 00:16:02,524
If you need something from the
shops have them bring it up,
270
00:16:02,612 --> 00:16:03,840
order your meals from room service.
271
00:16:03,976 --> 00:16:07,207
And under no circumstances
let anyone know where you are.
272
00:16:07,906 --> 00:16:10,215
- You're not staying?
- Tempting, but no.
273
00:16:11,315 --> 00:16:12,748
Dennis,
274
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:14,593
I'm sorry I dragged you into this.
275
00:16:14,684 --> 00:16:17,198
Dragged? Don't be silly.
No one threw a rope around my neck.
276
00:16:17,571 --> 00:16:18,890
Try and sleep.
277
00:16:34,816 --> 00:16:36,044
Elisabeth.
278
00:16:36,460 --> 00:16:38,291
When will I ever learn?
279
00:16:39,549 --> 00:16:41,744
Play with fire
you'll wind up with blisters.
280
00:16:46,005 --> 00:16:48,963
Don't be angry with me. It's
not quite as sordid as it seems.
281
00:16:49,936 --> 00:16:51,369
Oh, you disagree?
282
00:16:52,462 --> 00:16:54,851
Weren't you the one who told
me to get on with my life...
283
00:16:54,949 --> 00:16:57,338
and not curl up in some
corner like a hermit?
284
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:00,549
You were lying.
285
00:17:02,007 --> 00:17:03,645
Well of course you were.
286
00:17:05,135 --> 00:17:06,727
It's all your fault, you know?
287
00:17:09,386 --> 00:17:11,854
If you hadn't gone ahead
so damn soon.
288
00:17:36,336 --> 00:17:37,325
Stanton.
289
00:17:38,462 --> 00:17:40,498
Good morning, Lieutenant.
290
00:17:40,988 --> 00:17:42,580
I was up half the night,
291
00:17:42,633 --> 00:17:44,351
trying to find your pal, Hellinger.
292
00:17:44,678 --> 00:17:45,906
Concerned for me, were you?
293
00:17:46,041 --> 00:17:50,000
No. I went home, to bed then
I woke up in a cold sweat...
294
00:17:50,092 --> 00:17:51,810
because I had visions of
this headline:
295
00:17:52,017 --> 00:17:53,166
"Stanton dead"...
296
00:17:53,421 --> 00:17:56,572
"Catalano being investigated
for dereliction of duty."
297
00:17:57,190 --> 00:17:58,748
That's more like it.
298
00:17:58,995 --> 00:18:00,189
We came up empty.
299
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,549
San Rafael Police checked out
Hellinger's place around 3:00 am.
300
00:18:04,650 --> 00:18:06,322
It was locked up tight,
no car anywhere.
301
00:18:06,735 --> 00:18:08,566
What about his office in the city?
302
00:18:08,941 --> 00:18:11,501
I said empty, Stanton zip.
303
00:18:11,989 --> 00:18:14,503
Day watch has been given
a description of him and his car.
304
00:18:14,636 --> 00:18:15,989
That's the best I can do for you.
305
00:18:16,641 --> 00:18:17,869
Well thank you Perry.
306
00:18:18,205 --> 00:18:21,003
If I run across him or if he
tries to run across me again...
307
00:18:21,333 --> 00:18:22,607
I'll let you know.
308
00:20:24,694 --> 00:20:26,093
- Hello?
- It's me.
309
00:20:26,379 --> 00:20:27,971
Where have you been?
I've been worried sick.
310
00:20:28,223 --> 00:20:29,417
I checked out San Rafael.
311
00:20:29,627 --> 00:20:31,504
Ben's car is there, he isn't.
312
00:20:31,753 --> 00:20:33,630
- Are you alright?
- Bored silly.
313
00:20:33,798 --> 00:20:35,789
Have you ever tried watching
TV at 10 in the morning?
314
00:20:36,044 --> 00:20:39,116
Not if I can help it.
Sit tight for a while longer.
315
00:20:39,733 --> 00:20:41,166
I've got a couple more stops,
316
00:20:41,257 --> 00:20:43,293
then I'm going to Ben's office
to poke around.
317
00:20:43,824 --> 00:20:44,893
Dennis be careful.
318
00:20:44,987 --> 00:20:47,660
The police may have told his sons
Danny and Joey about us.
319
00:20:48,035 --> 00:20:51,584
I'm not one of their favorite people,
and Danny's got a terrible temper.
320
00:20:52,085 --> 00:20:53,803
I can look after myself dear heart.
321
00:20:54,371 --> 00:20:55,690
I'll call you later.
322
00:20:56,818 --> 00:20:59,093
Rose, get Joey
and tell him to get in here now.
323
00:20:59,505 --> 00:21:01,018
Thanks for holding, Mr. Brennan.
324
00:21:01,229 --> 00:21:02,947
I think the problem,
325
00:21:03,074 --> 00:21:04,666
is the man you spoke to,
my brother Joe...
326
00:21:04,758 --> 00:21:06,032
He... well,
327
00:21:06,162 --> 00:21:09,711
he used the wrong price schedule
in order to give you that quote.
328
00:21:10,975 --> 00:21:11,964
No, no sir...
329
00:21:12,138 --> 00:21:16,177
It's our fault. We intent
to take responsibility for it.
330
00:21:17,271 --> 00:21:19,421
If you have any further problems...
331
00:21:19,597 --> 00:21:22,065
please call and ask for me personally.
332
00:21:22,444 --> 00:21:23,957
Thank you. Bye.
333
00:21:24,971 --> 00:21:28,850
- What's up Danny?
- What is the matter with you Joey?
334
00:21:29,423 --> 00:21:31,698
For 4 years Pop and I have
been trying to cram...
335
00:21:31,749 --> 00:21:34,309
the business into your head
and you still screw up.
336
00:21:35,238 --> 00:21:36,512
- What?
- What?
337
00:21:37,042 --> 00:21:39,112
The Brennan job!
We're gonna eat 900 bucks...
338
00:21:39,168 --> 00:21:41,124
because you got chop seuy for brains.
339
00:21:41,534 --> 00:21:42,728
Get off my back!
340
00:21:43,058 --> 00:21:45,697
It's not my idea I'm working here.
It's the old man's, ok?
341
00:21:45,905 --> 00:21:47,577
Yeah?
What are you gonna do instead?
342
00:21:47,670 --> 00:21:49,555
You gonna go to Law School?
You gonna be a doctor?
343
00:21:49,595 --> 00:21:51,790
You gonna find somebody else
to pay you what you drag out...
344
00:21:51,841 --> 00:21:54,799
of this company every week?
In your dreams pal!
345
00:22:09,527 --> 00:22:11,040
Yeah right.
346
00:22:13,858 --> 00:22:16,531
- You know where the old man is?
- No.
347
00:22:16,986 --> 00:22:19,625
Rosie said the cops
are looking for him.
348
00:22:19,914 --> 00:22:22,553
You know Pop. He probably
went off for a couple of days.
349
00:22:22,601 --> 00:22:24,557
Probably to get away from her.
350
00:22:26,371 --> 00:22:27,690
Mr. Hellinger.
351
00:22:28,015 --> 00:22:29,004
Mr. Hellinger?
352
00:22:29,218 --> 00:22:30,697
I'm Danny Hellinger.
Can I help you?
353
00:22:31,023 --> 00:22:33,457
I'm Dennis Stanton.
I'm looking for your father.
354
00:22:34,111 --> 00:22:36,227
You're the guy who told the cops
my father tried to kill you.
355
00:22:40,046 --> 00:22:41,559
Leave us alone here Joey.
356
00:22:41,851 --> 00:22:44,809
- Come on Danny.
- Go on and get out.
357
00:22:51,997 --> 00:22:53,112
Mr. Stanton.
358
00:22:57,812 --> 00:22:58,881
Ok, what's going on?
359
00:22:59,056 --> 00:23:00,853
Precisely what
I want to know from you.
360
00:23:01,301 --> 00:23:05,897
Last night, your father or a
facsimile ran me off the road.
361
00:23:06,515 --> 00:23:07,994
You and my step mother you mean?
362
00:23:08,721 --> 00:23:11,076
The lady asked me for help after
your father used her...
363
00:23:11,167 --> 00:23:12,395
as a punching bag.
364
00:23:12,972 --> 00:23:14,883
Is that what you used
her for the night before?
365
00:23:15,659 --> 00:23:17,138
You have an ugly sense of humor.
366
00:23:17,343 --> 00:23:19,652
I'm not very polite when
it comes to Christina.
367
00:23:22,477 --> 00:23:23,466
Yes Rose?
368
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,471
Leon Vandermeer is on the line.
369
00:23:26,327 --> 00:23:28,158
Tell him I'll call him right back.
370
00:23:28,773 --> 00:23:31,446
Leon Vandermeer! That's pretty
high powered legal advice.
371
00:23:31,861 --> 00:23:33,374
Not that it's any of your business.
372
00:23:33,866 --> 00:23:37,176
I don't know where my father is.
Even if I did I wouldn't tell you.
373
00:23:37,716 --> 00:23:39,115
When was the last time
you saw him?
374
00:23:39,601 --> 00:23:41,193
That's none of your business.
Look, I'm busy.
375
00:23:41,446 --> 00:23:44,961
2 days ago, he failed to show
up at a meeting with the tax people.
376
00:23:45,537 --> 00:23:47,050
How long before that was he missing?
377
00:23:47,341 --> 00:23:49,297
He's not missing.
I saw him Sunday morning.
378
00:23:49,387 --> 00:23:50,740
Now goodbye Mr. Stanton.
379
00:23:54,801 --> 00:23:56,393
Listen, take some advice.
380
00:23:57,407 --> 00:23:58,806
Stay away from Christina.
381
00:23:59,012 --> 00:24:02,049
My father is old. He's in love
with her. He doesn't know any better.
382
00:24:02,741 --> 00:24:03,810
But I do.
383
00:24:05,388 --> 00:24:06,616
If you hear from him,
384
00:24:08,115 --> 00:24:09,230
call me.
385
00:24:27,405 --> 00:24:29,475
Yes, yes.
Fine. Yes right.
386
00:24:29,812 --> 00:24:30,801
Right.
387
00:24:33,301 --> 00:24:35,610
- Thanks for your phone.
- No problem.
388
00:24:36,309 --> 00:24:38,186
Sure you don't want to work out?
389
00:24:38,314 --> 00:24:39,667
No, no. No thanks.
390
00:24:40,439 --> 00:24:43,351
The lady's bored silly
and threatening mutiny...
391
00:24:43,407 --> 00:24:45,204
if I don't get back
to her right away.
392
00:24:45,853 --> 00:24:48,162
- Anything serious?
- Not really.
393
00:24:49,182 --> 00:24:52,174
Tell me about Ben and Christina?
394
00:24:53,353 --> 00:24:54,422
What about them?
395
00:24:54,716 --> 00:24:57,310
I'm caught up in rather
a strange situation.
396
00:24:58,045 --> 00:25:01,321
Since you invited them I thought
you could fill in the blanks.
397
00:25:03,058 --> 00:25:06,368
You know Ben.
Older guy, sort of a roughneck.
398
00:25:07,309 --> 00:25:10,585
San Francisco didn't exactly
warm to him despite his success.
399
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,392
That's the kind of town this is.
It's hard to buy your way in.
400
00:25:15,089 --> 00:25:16,158
And the lady?
401
00:25:17,776 --> 00:25:19,209
Socially ambitious.
402
00:25:19,341 --> 00:25:20,933
She wanted to come in from the cold.
403
00:25:21,867 --> 00:25:23,823
- Juice?
- No thanks.
404
00:25:25,035 --> 00:25:26,946
Christina and I
had a fling last year.
405
00:25:27,602 --> 00:25:29,752
It was falling apart between
Allison and me even then.
406
00:25:30,570 --> 00:25:31,969
Christina started getting serious.
407
00:25:32,134 --> 00:25:34,409
I reminded her she had a husband,
we had a blow out.
408
00:25:34,781 --> 00:25:35,896
That was that.
409
00:25:36,505 --> 00:25:38,735
Ben's been missing
since last Sunday.
410
00:25:39,673 --> 00:25:41,345
Probably needed a change of scenery.
411
00:25:43,523 --> 00:25:46,117
Christina can be pretty tough
if she doesn't get what she wants.
412
00:25:46,571 --> 00:25:48,004
Obviously she wanted you?
413
00:25:48,897 --> 00:25:50,569
Now I guess she's after you.
414
00:26:42,998 --> 00:26:45,956
- Good evening Officer.
- May I see you license please?
415
00:26:46,527 --> 00:26:48,279
What's wrong?
Did I miss a stop sign?
416
00:26:55,230 --> 00:26:56,902
Step out of the car please.
417
00:26:57,877 --> 00:27:00,550
I'm quite sure I wasn't speeding.
418
00:27:02,689 --> 00:27:04,327
Face the car,
hands spread in front of you.
419
00:27:04,975 --> 00:27:06,169
Really.
420
00:27:09,988 --> 00:27:11,467
Right hand behind your back please.
421
00:27:12,034 --> 00:27:13,786
- Not even a breathalyzer test?
- Now the left.
422
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,072
May I ask what this is all about?
423
00:27:16,325 --> 00:27:17,314
Sure.
424
00:27:17,809 --> 00:27:20,801
At 6 pm an APB went out
on you and your car.
425
00:27:21,137 --> 00:27:23,810
You're wanted for questioning
in the murder of Benjamin Hellinger.
426
00:27:28,918 --> 00:27:32,035
Delighted I found a way
to amuse you Lieutenant.
427
00:27:32,367 --> 00:27:34,597
I'm a sucker for the 3 stooges too.
428
00:27:34,813 --> 00:27:35,802
Might I sit down?
429
00:27:35,976 --> 00:27:38,934
When I tell you to.
Wait outside.
430
00:27:41,310 --> 00:27:42,299
Well...
431
00:27:42,633 --> 00:27:44,669
You finally blew it, Stanton.
I knew you would.
432
00:27:44,919 --> 00:27:46,910
Once a thief always a killer?
It doesn't quite follow.
433
00:27:47,125 --> 00:27:48,160
No, what follows is...
434
00:27:48,208 --> 00:27:49,926
that you have a natural born
contempt for the law.
435
00:27:50,012 --> 00:27:51,206
Only this time the stakes
are a little bigger.
436
00:27:51,336 --> 00:27:53,133
- Sit down!
- Thank you.
437
00:27:53,903 --> 00:27:56,098
We finally got you this time buddy.
438
00:27:56,509 --> 00:27:59,069
I'm only sorry we got to turn
you over to the San Rafael cops...
439
00:27:59,277 --> 00:28:01,313
who by the way,
are on their way here to pick you up.
440
00:28:01,683 --> 00:28:02,798
Before they get here,
441
00:28:02,846 --> 00:28:05,201
why not fill me in. What exactly
am I being charged with?
442
00:28:05,493 --> 00:28:07,882
You wanna know what we got?
Well, I'll tell you what we got.
443
00:28:08,220 --> 00:28:10,734
Around 4:00 the San Rafael cops...
444
00:28:10,827 --> 00:28:13,387
get a tip that you've been
lurking around the Hellinger place.
445
00:28:13,554 --> 00:28:15,624
They find Hellinger's
Mercedes in the garage.
446
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:17,677
Wasn't too tough to figure
out you found him.
447
00:28:17,965 --> 00:28:19,478
I didn't, but go on.
448
00:28:19,730 --> 00:28:22,198
When they went inside, they
found him in the steam shower...
449
00:28:22,256 --> 00:28:23,609
with an ice pick through his heart.
450
00:28:23,660 --> 00:28:25,571
They called a forensic
guy to dust for prints...
451
00:28:25,826 --> 00:28:28,818
He finds a lot of fresh ones in
the car, inside the house...
452
00:28:28,914 --> 00:28:30,188
and not the victims.
453
00:28:30,397 --> 00:28:32,627
- No. They were mine.
- I rest my case.
454
00:28:32,804 --> 00:28:34,237
For what it's worth,
I didn't kill him...
455
00:28:34,368 --> 00:28:36,199
and there was no body
in that shower...
456
00:28:36,654 --> 00:28:38,292
when I was there at 10 this morning.
457
00:28:38,659 --> 00:28:41,219
For what it's worth,
I don't believe you.
458
00:28:41,627 --> 00:28:42,980
Think Lieutenant.
459
00:28:43,311 --> 00:28:47,270
Do you really think that
I'm stupid enough to commit such...
460
00:28:47,362 --> 00:28:49,114
a clumsy and obvious murder?
461
00:28:49,327 --> 00:28:50,316
Yes.
462
00:28:50,490 --> 00:28:52,401
Or brave enough
to kill a man face to face...
463
00:28:52,495 --> 00:28:53,610
with an ice pick?
464
00:28:53,778 --> 00:28:57,088
That part doesn't fit,
but I can live with it.
465
00:28:57,508 --> 00:29:01,183
This tip, where did it come from?
466
00:29:01,799 --> 00:29:04,188
Over the phone.
They didn't leave a name.
467
00:29:05,729 --> 00:29:06,718
What?
468
00:29:06,892 --> 00:29:09,247
The officers from San Rafael
are here for the prisoner.
469
00:29:10,061 --> 00:29:11,380
We'll be right out.
470
00:29:12,627 --> 00:29:13,946
By the way,
471
00:29:14,753 --> 00:29:16,471
the San Rafael jail...
472
00:29:16,959 --> 00:29:19,268
you'll just love the cuisine.
473
00:29:36,128 --> 00:29:38,039
It's ok Charlie.
He's not going anywhere.
474
00:29:40,139 --> 00:29:41,492
Get in the van, quick.
475
00:29:44,189 --> 00:29:45,178
Shut the door.
476
00:29:48,601 --> 00:29:50,876
Now get behind the wheel.
477
00:29:52,812 --> 00:29:53,801
Now.
478
00:30:11,340 --> 00:30:12,693
Get some help.
479
00:30:40,616 --> 00:30:42,493
Excuse me.
I wonder if you could help me?
480
00:30:42,742 --> 00:30:44,460
My wife seems to have fallen asleep,
481
00:30:44,827 --> 00:30:46,579
and I've forgotten my key card.
482
00:30:46,913 --> 00:30:49,302
I got nobody in there sir.
That's a check out.
483
00:30:54,131 --> 00:30:57,089
Mrs. Schneider checked out
just after 6 o'clock.
484
00:30:57,420 --> 00:31:00,332
We refunded 102 dollars
and 12 cents...
485
00:31:00,588 --> 00:31:02,465
from the cash
you'd given us on account.
486
00:31:02,834 --> 00:31:04,631
Strange she didn't mention
it when she called?
487
00:31:05,722 --> 00:31:08,759
I can't remember if she called
collect or charged it to the room?
488
00:31:09,050 --> 00:31:11,644
It was around 4:00, San Rafael.
489
00:31:12,018 --> 00:31:15,852
Here it is. 555-4851.
490
00:31:16,429 --> 00:31:20,388
The call was made at 4:15
and she did charge it to the room.
491
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:21,589
Let me take a look...
492
00:31:21,803 --> 00:31:23,555
Excuse me Mr. Schneider.
493
00:31:23,849 --> 00:31:26,044
Do you have some
sort of identification?
494
00:31:26,335 --> 00:31:27,609
Of course...
495
00:31:28,661 --> 00:31:31,971
Never mind, I'll check it with
my wife when I get home.
496
00:31:32,110 --> 00:31:33,304
Thank you so much.
497
00:31:45,786 --> 00:31:47,777
San Rafael Police Department.
May I help you?
498
00:31:48,593 --> 00:31:49,742
Hello...
499
00:31:50,117 --> 00:31:52,506
Hello?
500
00:31:57,376 --> 00:31:59,367
Let me get this
straight Mrs. Hellinger.
501
00:31:59,622 --> 00:32:01,499
Last night after you and Stanton
left my office you went...
502
00:32:01,547 --> 00:32:04,186
- to a hotel.
- Yes. The Alvion.
503
00:32:04,274 --> 00:32:05,502
But he didn't stay.
504
00:32:05,758 --> 00:32:08,989
He was concerned about my safety.
505
00:32:09,287 --> 00:32:10,436
And his own. He was very angry.
506
00:32:10,650 --> 00:32:11,639
He told me to stay in the room...
507
00:32:11,693 --> 00:32:13,888
until he found my husband
and had it out with him.
508
00:32:15,062 --> 00:32:17,622
I never thought he'd kill him.
You've got to believe me.
509
00:32:18,591 --> 00:32:20,741
You stayed in this hotel, what?
510
00:32:21,118 --> 00:32:22,710
All night, all next day?
511
00:32:22,922 --> 00:32:26,119
Yes, I had breakfast
sent up around 8:00.
512
00:32:26,572 --> 00:32:28,244
Lunch shortly past 1:00.
513
00:32:28,577 --> 00:32:30,488
The made came in sometime in
the morning to make up the room.
514
00:32:31,144 --> 00:32:32,657
I don't remember exactly when.
515
00:32:33,069 --> 00:32:37,620
And around 3:00 I had
some magazines sent up.
516
00:32:37,841 --> 00:32:39,911
Dennis told me not to leave
the room for any reason.
517
00:32:40,247 --> 00:32:41,475
We'll check it out.
518
00:32:41,852 --> 00:32:43,683
Why did you leave?
Did Stanton call you?
519
00:32:44,218 --> 00:32:47,449
No, I saw the report of my husband's
death on the news. I was frightened.
520
00:32:48,068 --> 00:32:49,421
I wanted to get home.
521
00:32:49,712 --> 00:32:50,827
That's when I called you.
522
00:32:51,116 --> 00:32:53,311
I'm posting a man
here in the apartment...
523
00:32:53,482 --> 00:32:55,677
just in case Stanton
comes here looking for you.
524
00:32:56,129 --> 00:32:57,118
Thank you.
525
00:32:57,332 --> 00:32:59,129
You got nothing to worry about,
Mrs. Hellinger.
526
00:32:59,818 --> 00:33:01,171
We're gonna get him.
527
00:33:41,447 --> 00:33:44,166
A silent alarm.
Dennis you're losing your touch.
528
00:34:16,177 --> 00:34:17,166
Alright!
529
00:34:17,420 --> 00:34:20,298
- Where's is he?
- Sir, I don't know.
530
00:34:20,508 --> 00:34:23,227
Don't be ridiculous.
You always know.
531
00:34:23,476 --> 00:34:24,465
Have you read this yet?
532
00:34:24,679 --> 00:34:27,034
3 times they mentioned
Consolidated Casualty.
533
00:34:27,286 --> 00:34:28,605
This is nice.
534
00:34:28,770 --> 00:34:31,489
Dennis Stanton convicted
2 years ago for grand theft...
535
00:34:31,978 --> 00:34:34,856
received a suspended sentence
and 5 years probation.
536
00:34:34,946 --> 00:34:37,938
That's gonna do wonders
for our reputation.
537
00:34:38,274 --> 00:34:40,424
Sir, honestly,
I have no idea where he is...
538
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:41,999
Now listen Mrs. Markowitz.
539
00:34:42,405 --> 00:34:45,203
The minute he calls, I want to know.
You understand?
540
00:34:45,373 --> 00:34:46,362
Yes sir.
541
00:34:46,416 --> 00:34:48,054
I'm not gonna take
any heat for this guy.
542
00:34:48,381 --> 00:34:51,418
Next thing you know you'll
see my name in the paper.
543
00:34:52,150 --> 00:34:54,539
Consolidated Casualty.
Mr. Stanton office.
544
00:34:54,837 --> 00:34:57,670
Like hiring him was my idea.
Which it wasn't.
545
00:34:57,966 --> 00:34:59,479
Hi Mom.
546
00:35:00,973 --> 00:35:03,089
Does that mean, you can't talk now?
547
00:35:03,540 --> 00:35:06,054
You got that right.
The guy is a real schlemiel.
548
00:35:06,508 --> 00:35:08,226
I see. Robert's with you.
549
00:35:08,553 --> 00:35:09,588
Of course he is.
550
00:35:09,877 --> 00:35:12,914
Wait Mom. Why are you crying?
Who's got shingles?
551
00:35:14,769 --> 00:35:16,327
Alright Mrs. Markowitz.
552
00:35:16,534 --> 00:35:19,207
Remember what I said.
The minute he calls.
553
00:35:19,261 --> 00:35:20,455
Yes sir.
554
00:35:21,828 --> 00:35:24,388
Where are you?
Don't tell me. I don't want to know.
555
00:35:24,835 --> 00:35:26,951
For the record,
I did not kill that man.
556
00:35:27,482 --> 00:35:29,552
You think I don't know that?
So who did?
557
00:35:29,688 --> 00:35:30,677
I'm working on it...
558
00:35:30,891 --> 00:35:34,122
I got an idea, the widow Hellinger
with a little help from a friend.
559
00:35:34,541 --> 00:35:36,532
A few weeks ago Ben Hellinger
changed his will...
560
00:35:36,626 --> 00:35:40,141
leaving his half of the community
property to his son Danny.
561
00:35:40,436 --> 00:35:43,030
- How did you find that out?
- You don't need to know that either.
562
00:35:43,524 --> 00:35:44,957
Now listen carefully.
563
00:35:45,529 --> 00:35:48,202
The night before last,
Christina Hellinger,
564
00:35:48,617 --> 00:35:50,016
stayed at the Alvion Hotel...
565
00:35:50,101 --> 00:35:53,457
under the name Schneider.
Room 1233.
566
00:35:53,911 --> 00:35:56,186
She made one phone call to
the San Rafael police.
567
00:35:56,999 --> 00:36:01,231
The anonymous tip that led to me,
but before she made one other call.
568
00:36:01,290 --> 00:36:02,928
I need you to find out that number.
569
00:36:03,255 --> 00:36:04,973
How am I supposed to do that?
570
00:36:05,180 --> 00:36:06,818
With the friend of yours,
the computer hacker.
571
00:36:07,226 --> 00:36:09,694
Sheldon?
You want me to call Sheldon?
572
00:36:09,993 --> 00:36:12,632
It took me 3 months
to get that guy off my back!
573
00:36:13,121 --> 00:36:16,113
Rhoda, if this miscarriage
of justice succeeds...
574
00:36:17,212 --> 00:36:20,045
More than likely you'll be
back in the secretarial pool.
575
00:36:21,423 --> 00:36:22,572
I'll get right on it.
576
00:36:22,987 --> 00:36:24,340
Good girl. I'll be in touch.
577
00:36:29,203 --> 00:36:30,318
Catalano.
578
00:36:31,048 --> 00:36:32,037
Where are you?
579
00:36:32,291 --> 00:36:35,089
Immaterial. Now listen
carefully Lieutenant.
580
00:36:35,900 --> 00:36:38,414
I'm going to help you win a
departmental commendation...
581
00:36:38,627 --> 00:36:40,060
for solving the Hellinger murder.
582
00:36:40,352 --> 00:36:41,546
We got it solved.
583
00:36:41,836 --> 00:36:43,986
You get your butt in here,
before you get it shot off.
584
00:36:44,162 --> 00:36:45,356
There's 3 things you have to do.
585
00:36:45,565 --> 00:36:48,557
First have forensics check the
entire house for traces of blood.
586
00:36:49,215 --> 00:36:50,534
He wasn't killed in that steam room.
587
00:36:50,699 --> 00:36:52,417
We know that.
It was the living room.
588
00:36:52,905 --> 00:36:55,578
Why you stuck him in the
shower I haven't figured out yet.
589
00:36:55,752 --> 00:36:57,868
Two, ask the San Rafael police...
590
00:36:57,918 --> 00:37:00,751
if the freezer in the garage was
padlocked when they found the body.
591
00:37:01,367 --> 00:37:02,356
Freezer chest?
592
00:37:02,690 --> 00:37:06,922
Third, find out from the pathologist
if any of Hellinger's organs...
593
00:37:07,021 --> 00:37:09,660
showed evidence of frozen tissue.
594
00:37:09,949 --> 00:37:14,022
Quit trying to cloud the issue.
And give your self up.
595
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:15,349
I'll be in touch.
596
00:37:15,644 --> 00:37:17,362
Wait a minute! Stanton!
597
00:37:25,189 --> 00:37:26,622
Yes sir.
598
00:37:26,913 --> 00:37:28,312
Give me the Medical Examiner.
599
00:38:01,363 --> 00:38:02,955
Do you always drive that skillfully?
600
00:38:03,448 --> 00:38:06,360
Only when I'm aiding and
abetting a felon.
601
00:38:06,937 --> 00:38:09,246
- You ok?
- Never been better.
602
00:38:09,544 --> 00:38:10,533
Did you get it?
603
00:38:10,907 --> 00:38:13,580
I want you to know,
this is costing me a dinner...
604
00:38:13,675 --> 00:38:16,269
with Sheldon and his parents
Saturday night.
605
00:38:16,482 --> 00:38:17,801
Remind me to put you in for a raise.
606
00:38:18,247 --> 00:38:19,600
Put me in for a raise.
607
00:38:20,011 --> 00:38:23,083
555- 8290.
Now... Unless I'm mistaken...
608
00:38:23,300 --> 00:38:26,610
this is either the Hellinger office
or Danny Hellinger's home number.
609
00:38:27,029 --> 00:38:29,384
You're mistaken.
I already checked it out.
610
00:38:29,476 --> 00:38:31,706
The number is listed to
Joseph Hellinger.
611
00:38:32,283 --> 00:38:34,319
Brother Joey? But of...
612
00:38:34,770 --> 00:38:36,442
Of course it is.
613
00:38:37,336 --> 00:38:39,850
Left at the light,
then 3 blocks and pull over.
614
00:38:40,785 --> 00:38:42,582
Wait a minute.
That's a police station.
615
00:38:42,670 --> 00:38:44,501
Yes. I've decided to give myself up.
616
00:38:47,202 --> 00:38:49,318
- Come in.
- Here he is Lieutenant.
617
00:38:49,809 --> 00:38:52,198
So you finally got smart.
Good thinking.
618
00:38:52,456 --> 00:38:54,686
Before you start on the lecture
I think I figured this out.
619
00:38:54,822 --> 00:38:55,971
That makes two of us.
620
00:38:56,145 --> 00:38:57,464
Would you mind closing
the door on the way out?
621
00:38:57,509 --> 00:38:58,828
Yes sir.
622
00:38:59,795 --> 00:39:00,864
The pathologist's report:
623
00:39:00,958 --> 00:39:03,597
Internal organs do show signs
of having been frozen.
624
00:39:03,845 --> 00:39:05,597
In the garage freezer chest, no doubt.
625
00:39:05,810 --> 00:39:07,960
San Rafael cops said there
was no padlock on the chest...
626
00:39:08,056 --> 00:39:10,047
when they investigated.
It was open and empty.
627
00:39:10,302 --> 00:39:12,133
It was locked when
I was there earlier in the morning.
628
00:39:12,347 --> 00:39:15,737
So someone, not Mrs. Hellinger,
came back after I left.
629
00:39:15,876 --> 00:39:18,344
Removed the body from the freezer,
stuck it in the steam shower...
630
00:39:18,443 --> 00:39:21,640
to thaw out in an attempt to
mask the real time of death.
631
00:39:22,093 --> 00:39:24,209
Which could have been as long ago
as Sunday or Monday.
632
00:39:24,379 --> 00:39:26,290
I was out of town until
Tuesday morning.
633
00:39:26,785 --> 00:39:30,380
For the record, I no longer
consider you a suspect.
634
00:39:31,718 --> 00:39:34,835
- Just a gullible patsy.
- A misdemeanor at worst.
635
00:39:35,848 --> 00:39:38,965
So, who did kill the guy?
636
00:39:39,418 --> 00:39:40,612
Christina Hellinger.
637
00:39:41,383 --> 00:39:44,978
But she needed help to create the
illusion that he was still alive.
638
00:39:45,233 --> 00:39:46,268
Help from who?
639
00:39:46,516 --> 00:39:49,030
From her stepson Joey, a wastrel
with a love of money.
640
00:39:49,484 --> 00:39:51,042
His father had cut him
out of his will...
641
00:39:51,248 --> 00:39:53,398
and left everything
to his elder son, Danny.
642
00:39:53,735 --> 00:39:56,807
I'm sure Joey agreed
to help the widow...
643
00:39:57,064 --> 00:39:58,782
for a hefty slice of her inheritance.
644
00:39:59,029 --> 00:40:01,179
Yeah, but can we take that to court?
645
00:40:01,275 --> 00:40:02,264
I doubt it.
646
00:40:02,397 --> 00:40:04,706
But if you set 2 untrustworthy
people on a collision course...
647
00:40:04,764 --> 00:40:06,561
anything could happen.
648
00:40:06,769 --> 00:40:08,760
- May I suggest a plan of action?
- No.
649
00:40:09,897 --> 00:40:11,171
- Fine.
- Alright let's here it.
650
00:40:11,421 --> 00:40:14,094
Firstly, alert the media that
I've been recaptured.
651
00:40:14,268 --> 00:40:18,147
Secondly, make sure
Christina Hellinger knows.
652
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,631
Ryan, Christina Hellinger.
653
00:40:21,407 --> 00:40:24,205
Well I'm fine now,
but it's been a terrible ordeal.
654
00:40:24,415 --> 00:40:25,404
I guess you heard.
655
00:40:25,457 --> 00:40:26,776
They caught Dennis Stanton
trying to leave town.
656
00:40:27,543 --> 00:40:29,261
I can't imagine why he did it.
657
00:40:29,628 --> 00:40:32,188
I suppose if you've lived most
of your life outside the law...
658
00:40:32,275 --> 00:40:33,549
murder comes easy.
659
00:40:34,481 --> 00:40:37,871
Ryan, I know this may seem
inappropriate this soon, but...
660
00:40:38,291 --> 00:40:42,079
I'd like to see you. Now that you
and Allison are no longer together.
661
00:40:43,504 --> 00:40:47,622
I thought you might be feeling lonely,
and God knows I could use...
662
00:40:47,675 --> 00:40:48,869
someone to talk to.
663
00:40:51,485 --> 00:40:55,842
Of course. Perhaps when you get back.
You will call me?
664
00:40:57,862 --> 00:40:58,977
Yes. I understand.
665
00:40:59,225 --> 00:41:00,578
Sorry I bothered you.
666
00:41:03,717 --> 00:41:05,435
Too bad, Christina.
667
00:41:05,562 --> 00:41:07,075
More rejection?
668
00:41:08,209 --> 00:41:10,325
Dennis, but they arrested you again?
669
00:41:10,695 --> 00:41:13,653
Arresting me is one thing,
keeping me is another matter.
670
00:41:13,863 --> 00:41:15,455
Since your doorman knows me by sight.
671
00:41:15,628 --> 00:41:17,505
I dropped in through
your bedroom window.
672
00:41:18,315 --> 00:41:20,067
Not the police.
673
00:41:22,085 --> 00:41:23,882
We meant so much to each other.
674
00:41:24,972 --> 00:41:27,122
- What do you want?
- You of course.
675
00:41:28,140 --> 00:41:31,098
I realize I'm not quite the
social lion that Ryan Donovan is...
676
00:41:31,188 --> 00:41:33,861
nor nearly as wealthy
but I do have my attributes.
677
00:41:34,557 --> 00:41:35,751
You must be crazy.
678
00:41:36,242 --> 00:41:37,675
I do know that you killed Ben.
679
00:41:38,447 --> 00:41:39,721
In a fit of anger I'm sure...
680
00:41:39,811 --> 00:41:43,167
nobody would commit such
a sloppy premeditated murder.
681
00:41:44,142 --> 00:41:45,131
You are crazy.
682
00:41:45,305 --> 00:41:48,900
Alright. If I can't have you,
let's settle for cash.
683
00:41:49,957 --> 00:41:52,073
A small share of your inheritance?
684
00:41:52,283 --> 00:41:56,834
Christina, your plan won't work.
The pathologists aren't stupid.
685
00:41:56,895 --> 00:41:59,807
They'll know Ben was killed
several days ago, and was frozen.
686
00:42:00,023 --> 00:42:03,140
Then you always run the risk...
687
00:42:04,595 --> 00:42:05,789
that Joey will talk.
688
00:42:06,119 --> 00:42:09,748
By the way, did he effect
those bruises on your face?
689
00:42:10,049 --> 00:42:11,448
I don't what you're talking about.
690
00:42:11,894 --> 00:42:14,124
On the other hand
we do have a reasonable alternative.
691
00:42:14,742 --> 00:42:16,698
Suppose for the sake of argument,
692
00:42:17,148 --> 00:42:19,343
that you and I were together
at my place...
693
00:42:19,394 --> 00:42:21,703
on Sunday, all day and all evening.
694
00:42:22,402 --> 00:42:23,960
I could swear to it.
695
00:42:26,212 --> 00:42:27,361
I'm listening.
696
00:42:28,257 --> 00:42:29,895
As for Joey,
697
00:42:30,583 --> 00:42:32,141
he was furious with his father.
698
00:42:32,388 --> 00:42:35,744
He drove to San Rafael,
to confront him.
699
00:42:36,238 --> 00:42:38,433
They got into a terrible row
over the new will.
700
00:42:39,125 --> 00:42:40,922
And he stabbed him with the ice pick.
701
00:42:41,852 --> 00:42:44,241
In a panic he stuffed the
body in the freezer...
702
00:42:44,660 --> 00:42:46,378
while he figured out
what to do next.
703
00:42:46,945 --> 00:42:50,984
When he saw you and I together
at Ryan's party, it came to him.
704
00:42:51,477 --> 00:42:54,787
He drove his father's car to make
it appear that Ben was still alive.
705
00:42:55,969 --> 00:42:57,368
And then framed me for murder.
706
00:42:58,255 --> 00:43:02,646
You of course, completely
blameless in the whole affair.
707
00:43:04,511 --> 00:43:07,389
- Joey will claim otherwise.
- Who will believe him?
708
00:43:07,679 --> 00:43:08,714
He's never liked you anyway.
709
00:43:09,123 --> 00:43:11,159
Striking out at you would
be only natural.
710
00:43:13,093 --> 00:43:15,527
Any sort of personal involvement
between you and me,
711
00:43:16,021 --> 00:43:17,454
that wouldn't be part of it.
712
00:43:18,909 --> 00:43:20,388
No offense.
713
00:43:21,355 --> 00:43:24,347
But all things considered,
I'd rather have the money.
714
00:43:27,892 --> 00:43:29,120
Alright.
715
00:43:29,657 --> 00:43:30,772
How much?
716
00:43:30,980 --> 00:43:32,095
Say a million.
717
00:43:32,183 --> 00:43:33,980
What's to stop you from
coming back in a year...
718
00:43:34,068 --> 00:43:36,138
for another million?
719
00:43:36,675 --> 00:43:37,869
The threat of jail.
720
00:43:37,958 --> 00:43:41,314
Having committed perjury
I could hardly go to the police...
721
00:43:41,447 --> 00:43:44,086
without implicating myself
as an accessory after the fact.
722
00:43:46,901 --> 00:43:48,095
You're move Joey.
723
00:43:56,446 --> 00:43:57,435
Ok.
724
00:44:01,419 --> 00:44:03,216
What kind of a deal can I make?
725
00:44:08,598 --> 00:44:10,031
Listen to this one.
726
00:44:10,443 --> 00:44:13,719
The case was broken through
the efforts of Dennis Stanton,
727
00:44:13,811 --> 00:44:16,644
an investigator of
Consolidated Casualty,
728
00:44:16,739 --> 00:44:18,570
at one time a prime suspect
in the murder.
729
00:44:20,469 --> 00:44:21,902
Crazy lady.
730
00:44:22,073 --> 00:44:25,190
She thought she had a chance
with Ryan Donovan?
731
00:44:25,361 --> 00:44:28,637
And everything that went with him.
732
00:44:30,094 --> 00:44:31,163
Now she is what I call
a social climber.
733
00:44:32,059 --> 00:44:33,208
Dennis!
734
00:44:35,829 --> 00:44:37,706
Terrific job.
735
00:44:38,556 --> 00:44:40,786
Really terrific job.
736
00:44:41,323 --> 00:44:43,883
Thank you Robert.
How nice of you to say so.
737
00:44:44,090 --> 00:44:46,365
Considering I didn't save
the company one thin dime.
738
00:44:46,697 --> 00:44:48,767
Money?
What's that?
739
00:44:49,143 --> 00:44:50,337
I'm talking about press.
740
00:44:50,587 --> 00:44:53,624
I'm talking about the kind of
publicity money can't buy.
741
00:44:54,116 --> 00:44:57,426
No chance of me converting that
enthusiasm to a few days off?
742
00:44:57,806 --> 00:44:59,239
Days off?
Not a chance.
743
00:44:59,450 --> 00:45:02,442
As a matter of fact, I have a
couple new cases for you.
744
00:45:03,942 --> 00:45:05,978
If things keep going
the way they're going.
745
00:45:06,589 --> 00:45:09,103
I might get that transfer
to the New York office.
746
00:45:09,516 --> 00:45:10,505
"Ciao"!
747
00:45:12,725 --> 00:45:15,080
- New York!
- New York!
748
00:45:17,096 --> 00:45:19,564
- This one's yours. I'll take this.
- Right.
749
00:45:19,614 --> 00:45:24,164
