1
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,560
[Laura]
Try this for a deep, dark secret...
2
00:00:36,669 --> 00:00:39,570
The great detective
Remington Steele?
3
00:00:39,672 --> 00:00:42,300
He doesn't exist.
I invented him.
4
00:00:42,408 --> 00:00:45,571
Follow...
I always loved excitement.
5
00:00:45,678 --> 00:00:47,805
So I studied and apprenticed...
6
00:00:47,913 --> 00:00:50,074
and put my name on an office.
7
00:00:50,182 --> 00:00:52,309
But absolutely nobody
knocked down my door.
8
00:00:52,418 --> 00:00:56,821
A female private investigator
seemed so... feminine.
9
00:00:56,922 --> 00:00:59,083
So I invented a superior.
10
00:00:59,191 --> 00:01:02,092
A decidedly masculine superior.
11
00:01:02,194 --> 00:01:04,321
Suddenly, there were cases
around the block.
12
00:01:04,430 --> 00:01:06,955
It was working like a charm.
13
00:01:07,066 --> 00:01:08,829
Until the day he walked in...
14
00:01:08,934 --> 00:01:12,233
with his blue eyes
and mysterious past.
15
00:01:12,338 --> 00:01:14,101
And before I knew it...
16
00:01:14,206 --> 00:01:16,333
he assumed
Remington Steele's identity.
17
00:01:16,442 --> 00:01:20,105
Now I do the work,
and he takes the bows.
18
00:01:20,212 --> 00:01:22,339
It's a dangerous way to live...
19
00:01:22,448 --> 00:01:24,609
but as long as people buy it...
20
00:01:24,717 --> 00:01:26,844
I can get thejob done.
21
00:01:26,952 --> 00:01:29,853
We never mix business
with pleasure.
22
00:01:29,955 --> 00:01:32,116
Well, almost never.
23
00:01:33,359 --> 00:01:35,418
I don't even know
his real name.
24
00:02:06,258 --> 00:02:08,226
[Woman Laughing]
25
00:02:30,049 --> 00:02:34,986
- ¢Ü¢Û¢Ü¢Û[Soft Rock]
- [Glass Smashing]
26
00:02:35,087 --> 00:02:39,751
That's what I do to things
that bore me, Teddy.
27
00:02:39,859 --> 00:02:41,827
Now...
28
00:02:41,927 --> 00:02:45,920
get your devoted wife
another drink...
29
00:02:46,031 --> 00:02:50,866
if you can manage something
that complicated.
30
00:02:50,970 --> 00:02:54,531
- You've had enough, Rina.
- Of what? You maybe?
31
00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:56,369
Let her go.
32
00:02:56,475 --> 00:02:59,444
The party was getting dull anyway.
33
00:02:59,545 --> 00:03:03,208
Well, how could I?
You have been so busy of late.
34
00:03:03,315 --> 00:03:06,216
- I'll get you what you want.
- Uh-uh-uh-uh.
35
00:03:08,487 --> 00:03:11,650
You mean that you...
36
00:03:11,757 --> 00:03:14,624
are going to give him back?
37
00:03:15,761 --> 00:03:20,061
Oh, how generous of you, Marion.
38
00:03:20,166 --> 00:03:22,100
[Chuckles]
39
00:03:22,201 --> 00:03:24,101
Really, Teddy...
40
00:03:24,203 --> 00:03:28,469
what can you possibly see
in this thing?
41
00:03:29,742 --> 00:03:32,711
She can't even paint
her own name.
42
00:03:32,812 --> 00:03:36,077
She's got no money.
43
00:03:36,182 --> 00:03:39,447
Aha! The sack!
44
00:03:39,552 --> 00:03:42,453
Perhaps that's where
her talent lies.
45
00:03:42,555 --> 00:03:44,716
Will you stop at nothing?
46
00:03:45,758 --> 00:03:47,953
Marion.
47
00:03:48,060 --> 00:03:50,528
You can't leave now, Teddy.
48
00:03:52,198 --> 00:03:54,166
You haven't freshened my drink!
49
00:03:56,702 --> 00:03:58,602
- Rina, right now I could...
- What?
50
00:03:58,704 --> 00:04:00,672
Kiss me?
51
00:04:02,074 --> 00:04:04,975
Oh. In front of all these people?
52
00:04:07,613 --> 00:04:10,480
[Cackling]
53
00:04:14,353 --> 00:04:17,322
[Laughing]
54
00:04:40,412 --> 00:04:42,312
Who's that?
55
00:04:44,250 --> 00:04:46,684
Oh, it's you.
56
00:04:50,055 --> 00:04:52,421
Oh, you really must forgive me...
57
00:04:52,524 --> 00:04:58,224
for making such a spectacle
of us all this afternoon.
58
00:04:59,365 --> 00:05:02,232
I couldn't resist it.
59
00:05:02,334 --> 00:05:06,031
Oh, what a sensation we'll cause.
60
00:05:09,241 --> 00:05:11,801
[Rina Screaming]
61
00:05:19,885 --> 00:05:22,080
Oh, yes!
62
00:05:22,187 --> 00:05:25,918
Yes! Eccentric!
63
00:05:26,025 --> 00:05:30,155
A wild animal,
snapping and snarling.
64
00:05:30,262 --> 00:05:32,594
Snapping and snarling?
65
00:05:32,698 --> 00:05:34,791
It's supposed to be The Lovers.
66
00:05:34,900 --> 00:05:39,234
Oh, but of course... The Lovers,
snapping and snarling.
67
00:05:40,739 --> 00:05:42,730
Que bella.!
68
00:05:46,312 --> 00:05:48,212
Lovers, huh?
69
00:05:48,314 --> 00:05:50,874
Is that the kind
of sex life you got?
70
00:05:50,983 --> 00:05:53,178
Now, this here...
71
00:05:53,285 --> 00:05:55,219
this here makes a statement.
72
00:05:55,321 --> 00:05:58,290
[Drill Whirring]
73
00:06:10,102 --> 00:06:12,002
- Miss Holt?
- Yeah?
74
00:06:12,104 --> 00:06:14,299
I heard from some
of the other students...
75
00:06:14,406 --> 00:06:19,469
that your work is, uh... is...
76
00:06:19,578 --> 00:06:22,240
[Sobbing]
77
00:06:22,348 --> 00:06:24,282
Is it really that bad?
78
00:06:24,383 --> 00:06:26,613
That's really bad.
79
00:06:28,721 --> 00:06:30,985
It gets worse.
80
00:06:31,090 --> 00:06:35,220
Teddy told the police
he was with me that night.
81
00:06:35,327 --> 00:06:38,455
Believe me, Marion.
It's best to tell the truth...
82
00:06:38,564 --> 00:06:43,001
even if it's embarrassing to admit
you spent the night with Rina's husband.
83
00:06:43,102 --> 00:06:45,070
He wasn't with me.
84
00:06:46,405 --> 00:06:48,373
Oh?
85
00:06:49,508 --> 00:06:52,033
We lied to the police.
86
00:06:52,144 --> 00:06:54,510
You mean you backed him up?
87
00:06:54,613 --> 00:06:57,377
Oh, boy.
88
00:06:57,483 --> 00:07:00,748
But he didn't do it.
He couldn't have.
89
00:07:00,853 --> 00:07:03,583
But you're not sure.
90
00:07:03,689 --> 00:07:05,953
Uh, well...
91
00:07:06,058 --> 00:07:09,619
once, about a month or so ago...
92
00:07:09,728 --> 00:07:12,561
we were parking
in one of the canyons.
93
00:07:12,664 --> 00:07:15,258
Teddy only had an hour,
and then he had to get back to Rina.
94
00:07:15,367 --> 00:07:18,336
He said he wished
she were dead.
95
00:07:18,437 --> 00:07:22,271
- And where is he now?
- Hiding. I don't know where.
96
00:07:22,374 --> 00:07:27,141
- All the earmarks of an innocent man.
- He's scared.
97
00:07:27,246 --> 00:07:30,682
You've heard the way the 6:00 news
is milking this thing.
98
00:07:30,783 --> 00:07:35,516
"Prominent West Coast artist Rina Casselas,
the victim of a brutal slaying."
99
00:07:35,621 --> 00:07:38,021
And the police still haven't
found her body?
100
00:07:38,123 --> 00:07:40,785
Look...
101
00:07:40,893 --> 00:07:43,623
you don't always get to pick
who you fall in love with.
102
00:07:43,729 --> 00:07:45,663
But I love Teddy.
103
00:07:45,764 --> 00:07:47,891
And he loves me. And...
104
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,458
And I want to marry him.
And I will.
105
00:07:51,570 --> 00:07:54,835
Providing we can prove
he didn't kill his wife first.
106
00:07:54,940 --> 00:07:57,204
Can you help me?
107
00:07:57,309 --> 00:08:00,472
I don't know.
What do you think, Darryl?
108
00:08:00,579 --> 00:08:03,639
I don't think it's right
for you, Mr. Steele.
109
00:08:03,749 --> 00:08:05,649
Yes. Too cool.
110
00:08:05,751 --> 00:08:08,914
What these offices
need is... feeling...
111
00:08:09,021 --> 00:08:12,149
vitality, passion, if you will.
112
00:08:12,257 --> 00:08:15,021
Passion.
113
00:08:15,127 --> 00:08:16,924
- I got it.
- [Phone Ringing]
114
00:08:17,029 --> 00:08:20,521
Would it be too much to request
some assistance from you, Mr. Steele?
115
00:08:20,632 --> 00:08:23,465
What? No, no, no,
not at all, not at all.
116
00:08:26,238 --> 00:08:29,002
- Steele here.
- Hello. Is Laura there?
117
00:08:29,108 --> 00:08:32,043
- No, she isn't. Can I take a message?
- This is Giovanni.
118
00:08:32,144 --> 00:08:35,272
- Giovanni?
- Last night, I didn't say enough.
119
00:08:35,380 --> 00:08:37,746
She was magnifico.
120
00:08:37,850 --> 00:08:41,752
- Last night?
- Yeah, I cannot wait until next week...
121
00:08:41,854 --> 00:08:44,254
for The Lovers to progress.
122
00:08:44,356 --> 00:08:47,848
The lovers? Then I presume
this is a personal call?
123
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,952
Tell her she was splendid,
inspiring...
124
00:08:51,063 --> 00:08:52,928
fantastic!
125
00:08:53,031 --> 00:08:55,090
Okay, okay, that's it.
I got it.
126
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,725
- Ciao.
- Ciao, indeed.
127
00:09:03,275 --> 00:09:05,243
Mr. Steele.
128
00:09:11,150 --> 00:09:13,050
How's that for passion?
129
00:09:13,152 --> 00:09:16,019
Passion's a dangerous thing, Darryl.
130
00:09:16,121 --> 00:09:18,749
You never know
when it's gonna run wild...
131
00:09:18,857 --> 00:09:20,757
or with whom.
132
00:09:20,859 --> 00:09:22,850
You'll have to forgive
our decorating.
133
00:09:22,961 --> 00:09:26,192
But if you can find a place
to sit in that office.
134
00:09:26,298 --> 00:09:28,425
Ah, there you are, Miss Holt...
135
00:09:28,534 --> 00:09:30,525
my most trusted associate.
136
00:09:30,636 --> 00:09:32,934
Marion Travis,
Remington Steele.
137
00:09:33,038 --> 00:09:36,838
Mr. Steele, she's wonderful.
She really is.
138
00:09:36,942 --> 00:09:40,343
Hmm. So I've been hearing.
139
00:09:40,445 --> 00:09:42,470
Miss Holt, I've just received
a phone call...
140
00:09:42,581 --> 00:09:44,640
that requires an immediate conference
between us...
141
00:09:44,750 --> 00:09:47,583
Whatever it is will have to wait.
142
00:09:47,686 --> 00:09:50,849
- Murphy, you want to come in on this?
- Sure.
143
00:09:54,693 --> 00:09:58,060
Mr. Steele,
what about the colors?
144
00:09:58,163 --> 00:10:00,063
It's red.
145
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,658
I know Teddy married Rina
for her money.
146
00:10:04,770 --> 00:10:07,170
Teddy's beautiful,
and guys like that...
147
00:10:07,272 --> 00:10:10,833
well, they just get used
to the easy life.
148
00:10:10,943 --> 00:10:15,107
And Rina... Rina
likes to own things.
149
00:10:15,214 --> 00:10:17,614
But some relationships don't
go the way they're planned.
150
00:10:17,716 --> 00:10:19,274
More often than one can imagine.
151
00:10:19,384 --> 00:10:21,716
[Marion]
And I know Teddy wanted to leave Rina.
152
00:10:21,820 --> 00:10:24,345
Then why didn't he?
153
00:10:24,456 --> 00:10:26,447
- The easy life?
- No.
154
00:10:26,558 --> 00:10:30,221
He didn't care about that anymore.
Rina was blackmailing him.
155
00:10:30,329 --> 00:10:32,923
- With what?
- He wouldn't tell me.
156
00:10:33,031 --> 00:10:36,364
But she threatened to use it against him
if he ever tried to walk out.
157
00:10:36,468 --> 00:10:40,700
So, we're dealing here
with a man trapped...
158
00:10:40,806 --> 00:10:44,401
at the very apex
of a lovers' triangle.
159
00:10:44,509 --> 00:10:47,501
On one side, true love.
160
00:10:47,613 --> 00:10:51,105
On the other side,
a hollow commitment...
161
00:10:51,216 --> 00:10:55,277
fueled by little more
than cheap, carnal lust.
162
00:10:57,089 --> 00:11:01,082
- Mr. Steele, I don't think...
- The question is then, Miss Holt...
163
00:11:01,193 --> 00:11:03,457
could a man...
would a man...
164
00:11:03,562 --> 00:11:08,829
faced with such
an excruciating dilemma...
165
00:11:08,934 --> 00:11:12,165
resort to murder?
166
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,468
"The apex of a lovers' triangle"?
167
00:11:17,576 --> 00:11:20,044
Don't you think you went
a little heavy on the drama?
168
00:11:20,145 --> 00:11:22,409
- Thank you, Fred.
- I thought we changed the subject to last night.
169
00:11:22,514 --> 00:11:25,813
- What about last night?
- I called you. You weren't in.
170
00:11:25,917 --> 00:11:29,182
- Well, I was busy with some work.
- Oh.
171
00:11:29,288 --> 00:11:33,281
- Anything interesting?
- Just nuts and bolts kind of stuff.
172
00:11:33,392 --> 00:11:35,758
American made or foreign?
173
00:11:41,199 --> 00:11:43,565
[Man]
But why, Nicholas?
174
00:11:43,669 --> 00:11:47,503
[Nicholas] Because I'm not in the business
of selling blank walls or slides.!
175
00:11:47,606 --> 00:11:50,769
- Now, calm down, Nicky.
- Now, when do I get the paintings?
176
00:11:50,876 --> 00:11:53,071
Soon.! That's all I can tell you.
177
00:11:53,178 --> 00:11:55,237
I don't like this, Noah,
none of it.
178
00:11:55,347 --> 00:11:59,408
If I had known what was involved when
you approached me about Rina's work...
179
00:11:59,518 --> 00:12:03,477
You would have tried to
double your commission.
180
00:12:03,588 --> 00:12:07,251
- Excuse me. Mr. Spriggs?
- Yes?
181
00:12:07,359 --> 00:12:10,385
I was wondering
if you could help me.
182
00:12:10,495 --> 00:12:13,555
I'm sure Anita can answer
any questions you might have...
183
00:12:13,665 --> 00:12:15,758
if I can tear her away
from the soap operas.
184
00:12:15,867 --> 00:12:18,631
- Anita!
- Actually, it's you we wanted to speak with.
185
00:12:18,737 --> 00:12:23,731
- Was there something particular
in which you were interested? - Information.
186
00:12:23,842 --> 00:12:26,811
"Remington Steele, Investigations."
187
00:12:26,912 --> 00:12:31,872
You attended a party at Rina Casselas's
the night she disappeared. Is that correct?
188
00:12:31,983 --> 00:12:34,645
Well, yes, but I was only there
for a very short while.
189
00:12:34,753 --> 00:12:38,814
- I left a long time before she...
- I was also there.
190
00:12:38,924 --> 00:12:41,256
- Noah Devereaux.
- The art critic.
191
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,887
Ordinarily, I'd be flattered
by the recognition.
192
00:12:44,996 --> 00:12:48,397
Unfortunately, both Nicholas
and I were very close to Rina...
193
00:12:48,500 --> 00:12:52,596
and her murder has left
our nerves a little raw, I'm afraid.
194
00:12:52,704 --> 00:12:55,332
- How can we help you?
- Teddy Bennett, Rina's husband.
195
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,135
Ah, yes.
196
00:12:58,643 --> 00:13:03,376
A walking poster,
with about as much depth.
197
00:13:03,482 --> 00:13:07,509
I suppose Rina was attracted
to the animal in him.
198
00:13:07,619 --> 00:13:09,985
I often warned her that
exotic pets like that...
199
00:13:10,088 --> 00:13:12,147
could be dangerous,
but she never listened.
200
00:13:12,257 --> 00:13:14,157
Then you think he killed her?
201
00:13:14,259 --> 00:13:16,454
That's a decision
for the police to make.
202
00:13:16,561 --> 00:13:21,055
According to this mailer, you were planning
a showing of Rina's latest works?
203
00:13:21,166 --> 00:13:24,829
Yes. Well, that opening
will have to be delayed now.
204
00:13:24,936 --> 00:13:28,337
Nicholas thought at first
it would be a fitting memorial.
205
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,034
But I've convinced him
that a presentation so soon...
206
00:13:31,143 --> 00:13:33,737
might appear to be in bad taste.
207
00:13:33,845 --> 00:13:36,575
You there!
208
00:13:36,681 --> 00:13:39,809
What are you doing?
Leave that alone.
209
00:13:39,918 --> 00:13:42,546
Just a moment.
210
00:13:42,654 --> 00:13:44,747
- It's the beer cans.
- The beer cans?
211
00:13:45,924 --> 00:13:48,222
- Stop him.
- Stop him.
212
00:14:35,073 --> 00:14:38,975
- [Groans]
- Consider him stopped.
213
00:14:47,586 --> 00:14:49,281
Leo Blitzman?
214
00:14:49,387 --> 00:14:51,355
Yeah. Watch the rough stuff,
pretty boy.
215
00:14:51,456 --> 00:14:53,549
- You're dealing with an eye.
- An eye?
216
00:14:53,658 --> 00:14:56,821
- Cannon, Mannix, Rockford.
- He appears to be speaking in some sort of code.
217
00:14:56,928 --> 00:14:59,158
He's trying to tell us
he's a private eye.
218
00:14:59,264 --> 00:15:01,732
- Him?
- You better believe it, sweets.
219
00:15:01,833 --> 00:15:05,963
I handled dozens of cases last year.
My middle name is "Divorce."
220
00:15:06,071 --> 00:15:09,097
All right, Mr. Blitzman, then what
are you doing lurking around us?
221
00:15:09,207 --> 00:15:11,107
I don't have to answer nothing.
222
00:15:11,209 --> 00:15:13,837
- I'm like a priest with my clients.
- Wait a minute.
223
00:15:13,945 --> 00:15:16,914
Blitzman. Weren't you in charge
of security at Ranaldi's...
224
00:15:17,015 --> 00:15:19,483
when the designs for
their spring line were stolen?
225
00:15:19,584 --> 00:15:22,712
I don't care what you heard.
It didn't happen like that. And I'm suing.
226
00:15:22,821 --> 00:15:24,914
My lawyers are handling
it right now.
227
00:15:25,023 --> 00:15:27,958
And then there was the garden party
for the county museum.
228
00:15:28,059 --> 00:15:30,755
You let the raffle tickets
blow all over the lawn.
229
00:15:30,862 --> 00:15:32,762
What am I, God?
I can control the weather?
230
00:15:32,864 --> 00:15:36,061
When you got back from collecting them,
somebody had stolen the Paul Revere tankards.
231
00:15:36,167 --> 00:15:39,159
I'm a persecuted man.
And if I hear you repeating this, too...
232
00:15:39,271 --> 00:15:41,535
I'm going after you in court.
233
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,165
All right, Mr. Blitzman,
I want to know who you're working for.
234
00:15:44,276 --> 00:15:46,801
Mr. Steele, if I could have
a word with you.
235
00:15:46,912 --> 00:15:49,540
- Steele? Remington Steele?
- That's right.
236
00:15:49,648 --> 00:15:53,140
And you stand right there. Otherwise,
Mr. Steele will be forced to shoot you.
237
00:15:53,251 --> 00:15:56,618
I got roots growing
out of my toes.
238
00:15:56,721 --> 00:15:58,951
[Scoffs]
239
00:15:59,057 --> 00:16:01,651
You're not gonna like this,
but we have to let him go.
240
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,661
What? Shouldn't we at least
wrench some information out of him?
241
00:16:04,763 --> 00:16:06,697
Leo, you gonna tell us anything?
242
00:16:06,798 --> 00:16:08,959
I'm like a priest, remember?
243
00:16:11,937 --> 00:16:14,167
[Groans]
244
00:16:29,588 --> 00:16:33,149
I merely said he wouldn't tell us anything,
not that he wouldn't prove useful.
245
00:16:33,258 --> 00:16:36,955
All right, putting Blitzman aside
for the moment...
246
00:16:37,062 --> 00:16:41,590
Laura, I feel we need to talk about
what's been happening between us...
247
00:16:41,700 --> 00:16:45,158
about truth and deception,
honesty and falsehood.
248
00:16:45,270 --> 00:16:48,637
Then you've been getting
the same feelings I've had?
249
00:16:48,740 --> 00:16:50,640
From the sound of it, hardly.
250
00:16:50,742 --> 00:16:54,838
I thought Devereaux was lying, too,
and Spriggs for that matter.
251
00:16:54,946 --> 00:16:58,245
Why would they plan a showing
of Rina's works and then cancel it?
252
00:16:58,350 --> 00:17:01,751
- Laura, I don't think you quite have the picture.
- You're right. You must be.
253
00:17:01,853 --> 00:17:05,846
They don't have the pictures. When I looked in,
all Spriggs had were the slides...
254
00:17:05,957 --> 00:17:08,687
and he was complaining
about having to wait.
255
00:17:08,793 --> 00:17:11,557
But if Rina's dead,
then where are they?
256
00:17:11,663 --> 00:17:15,622
You know, it's almost
as if they were expecting her to die.
257
00:17:17,369 --> 00:17:19,269
Oh, he's made us.
258
00:17:24,509 --> 00:17:27,910
What's this? You're following me?
In that ocean liner?
259
00:17:28,013 --> 00:17:31,449
Don't be absurd. Our paths merely
coincided for a stretch.
260
00:17:31,549 --> 00:17:35,041
- I love it! They're trying to follow me.
- [Horn Honking]
261
00:17:36,454 --> 00:17:40,220
Hey, I got two ex-wives
trying to hunt me down...
262
00:17:40,325 --> 00:17:42,816
and they're yet to sprinkle salt
on this rooster's tail.
263
00:17:42,927 --> 00:17:45,487
So take a gander at this car...
264
00:17:45,597 --> 00:17:48,725
'cause all you're gonna
see of it is the dust!
265
00:17:52,570 --> 00:17:57,007
- No matter what, Fred, don't
lose him until I tell you. - Yes, sir!
266
00:17:57,108 --> 00:18:02,011
There's only so much insult a man
can have added to his injury.
267
00:18:14,726 --> 00:18:16,819
[Laughing]
268
00:18:35,313 --> 00:18:38,840
No salt on this rooster's tail.
269
00:18:40,952 --> 00:18:43,420
[Horn Honking]
270
00:18:47,425 --> 00:18:50,656
- Very impressive, Mr. Steele.
- [Whistles]
271
00:18:50,762 --> 00:18:55,131
- One learns these little tricks
when one is constantly... - On the run?
272
00:18:56,868 --> 00:18:59,393
Are you the $50 tip
dispatch was yelling about?
273
00:18:59,504 --> 00:19:02,496
That fellow just gone round the corner
has it, providing you don't lose him.
274
00:19:02,607 --> 00:19:05,405
- Follow the smoke.
- I'm with you, sugar.
275
00:19:08,613 --> 00:19:11,582
[Knocking]
276
00:19:16,855 --> 00:19:18,755
- Were you followed?
- Are you kidding?
277
00:19:18,857 --> 00:19:20,950
Follow a rooster
like Leo Blitzman?
278
00:19:21,059 --> 00:19:24,187
That's like trying to shake hands
with your own shadow.
279
00:19:24,295 --> 00:19:26,923
[Knocking]
280
00:19:29,367 --> 00:19:33,030
[Steele] So you hired Leo to prove
that Marion didn't kill Rina.
281
00:19:33,138 --> 00:19:37,472
I was on her tail like that. Even brought
my own beer cans to class as a cover.
282
00:19:37,575 --> 00:19:40,271
- Beer cans?
- It's not important.
283
00:19:40,378 --> 00:19:43,142
Teddy, why did you
suspect Marion?
284
00:19:43,248 --> 00:19:46,274
I was afraid she couldn't stand to watch
the way that Rina treated me anymore.
285
00:19:46,384 --> 00:19:48,284
She loved me that much.
286
00:19:48,386 --> 00:19:51,378
That's why I told the police that
we were together that night after the party.
287
00:19:51,489 --> 00:19:54,049
It doesn't work badly
as an alibi for you either.
288
00:19:55,860 --> 00:19:58,385
All right, I found Rina
for her money...
289
00:19:58,496 --> 00:20:01,659
and nine out of 10 people
will say I killed her for the same reason.
290
00:20:01,766 --> 00:20:05,566
But do you want to know what the truth is?
Rina was completely tapped out.
291
00:20:05,670 --> 00:20:08,833
The demand for her paintings had been
slipping off the last couple of years.
292
00:20:08,940 --> 00:20:11,431
But she kept on spending
like the party was never gonna end.
293
00:20:11,543 --> 00:20:13,636
Would anyone else have
a reason to kill Rina?
294
00:20:15,013 --> 00:20:17,072
Well, I don't know.
295
00:20:17,182 --> 00:20:19,650
You see, I kind of lost track
of what was happening in Rina's life.
296
00:20:19,751 --> 00:20:22,652
I mean, she's off painting someplace...
I don't know where. It's very mysterious.
297
00:20:22,754 --> 00:20:26,656
- Then you didn't see her
most recent set of canvases? - No.
298
00:20:26,758 --> 00:20:29,591
You know, Marion got me
into therapy. Primal scream.
299
00:20:29,694 --> 00:20:33,460
A terrific guy in Beverly Hills. You know,
I never knew how much I hated my father.
300
00:20:33,565 --> 00:20:35,795
I mean, like really hated him.
But you know what?
301
00:20:35,900 --> 00:20:37,868
I love him.
He's a terrific guy, my dad.
302
00:20:37,969 --> 00:20:40,267
I can now relate to myself
in a positive way.
303
00:20:40,371 --> 00:20:43,568
But you'd still stand
to inherit the paintings.
304
00:20:43,675 --> 00:20:47,133
And with Rina dead, they'd be worth
a lot more than they were a week ago.
305
00:20:47,245 --> 00:20:50,510
I know. I even smell guilty.
306
00:20:50,615 --> 00:20:52,515
See, that's why
I'm holed up here.
307
00:20:52,617 --> 00:20:56,383
I was hoping in clearing Marion, well, Leo,
he'd come up with a lead maybe, huh?
308
00:20:56,487 --> 00:20:58,478
Any day now, Teddy.
Any day.
309
00:20:58,590 --> 00:21:01,616
What is this?
310
00:21:01,726 --> 00:21:04,718
Oh, well, Marion rented it
about six months ago...
311
00:21:04,829 --> 00:21:07,889
to store all this junk art she's selling.
312
00:21:07,999 --> 00:21:12,197
We had plans to convert it
into our own space someday.
313
00:21:12,303 --> 00:21:17,570
It's funny. All my life, I'm not even worth
the clothes I hustle to put on my back.
314
00:21:17,675 --> 00:21:21,202
Then I finally meet somebody that
really matters to me, and this happens.
315
00:21:21,312 --> 00:21:23,473
Love make any sense
to you, Steele?
316
00:21:25,283 --> 00:21:27,683
Less and less all the time.
317
00:21:30,455 --> 00:21:33,947
- Thanks, Murph.
- You say the police have been through here?
318
00:21:34,058 --> 00:21:36,993
Cleanup isn't their strong suit.
319
00:21:37,095 --> 00:21:41,031
It's no wonder Rina had so many pairs
of glasses. She was going blind.
320
00:21:41,132 --> 00:21:43,657
- Going blind?
- Murphy checked with her ophthalmologist.
321
00:21:43,768 --> 00:21:48,000
She had a degenerative eye disease
called retinitis pigmentosa.
322
00:21:48,106 --> 00:21:50,734
- But it's odd.
- For a painter, more like tragic.
323
00:21:50,842 --> 00:21:53,003
No, no, I mean, this studio.
324
00:21:53,111 --> 00:21:57,377
Rina must have been standing here
because there's such a large stain.
325
00:21:57,482 --> 00:21:59,416
But there's not a drop
on this painting.
326
00:21:59,517 --> 00:22:03,317
- Laura.
- Yes?
327
00:22:03,421 --> 00:22:06,754
- Laura.
- What?
328
00:22:08,726 --> 00:22:13,095
Laura. Dana Andrews. Gene Tierney.
Twentieth Century Fox. 1944.
329
00:22:13,197 --> 00:22:16,189
Detective falls in love with a murdered
woman whom he knows only through her portrait...
330
00:22:16,301 --> 00:22:19,566
then discovers that
she's not really dead.
331
00:22:19,671 --> 00:22:22,105
Not really dead?
332
00:22:22,206 --> 00:22:25,903
Try this. A successful
but waning artist is broke.
333
00:22:26,010 --> 00:22:29,377
Her only source of income is her painting,
but she realizes she'll soon be blind.
334
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,074
- She dies in a sensational murder.
- Plenty of delicious scandal.
335
00:22:32,183 --> 00:22:35,641
- Which shoots up the value of her paintings.
- Additional data? No body.
336
00:22:35,753 --> 00:22:38,017
Erratic, illogical evidence
at the scene of the crime.
337
00:22:38,122 --> 00:22:41,455
So Rina staged her murder to cash in
on her talents while she still could.
338
00:22:41,559 --> 00:22:43,993
And left Teddy
to take the rap for it.
339
00:22:44,095 --> 00:22:47,531
- Cold-blooded scheme.
- Cunning woman.
340
00:22:47,632 --> 00:22:50,226
[Steele] And not nearly as appealing
as Gene Tierney.
341
00:22:59,477 --> 00:23:01,604
Marion's going to meet us
at the loft.
342
00:23:01,713 --> 00:23:03,772
She can't wait to see
Teddy again.
343
00:23:03,881 --> 00:23:06,372
- The lovers reunited.
- Indeed.
344
00:23:08,252 --> 00:23:10,777
Laura, there's no point
in putting this off any longer.
345
00:23:10,888 --> 00:23:14,380
I took a phone call for you
this morning from Giovanni.
346
00:23:14,492 --> 00:23:18,485
Giovanni? Oh, dear.
You weren't supposed to find out.
347
00:23:18,596 --> 00:23:21,121
- Obviously not.
- So you know about my...
348
00:23:21,232 --> 00:23:23,097
- Lover? Yes.
- Lovers.
349
00:23:23,201 --> 00:23:26,295
Lovers? You mean
there's more than one?
350
00:23:26,404 --> 00:23:28,634
Well, I knew it was going
to be more work...
351
00:23:28,740 --> 00:23:32,870
but I couldn't see
doing it any other way.
352
00:23:32,977 --> 00:23:35,343
But... But it's not possible.
353
00:23:35,446 --> 00:23:37,573
Well, keeping them both
balanced is tricky...
354
00:23:37,682 --> 00:23:39,582
but when you're holding
a torch like that...
355
00:23:39,684 --> 00:23:42,346
Torch? Sounds more like a forest fire
raging out of control.
356
00:23:42,453 --> 00:23:44,387
I would like to consider
myself a sophisticated man...
357
00:23:44,489 --> 00:23:46,957
and I would never presume
to have a monopoly on your affections.
358
00:23:47,058 --> 00:23:49,959
But if you must dally, couldn't
you confine it to one tryst at a time?
359
00:23:50,061 --> 00:23:53,224
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
You took a message for me...
360
00:23:53,331 --> 00:23:57,324
and deduced from that that I was having
a smarmy affair with Giovanni?
361
00:23:57,435 --> 00:24:00,871
- He was none too discreet about it either.
- Very clever deduction.
362
00:24:00,972 --> 00:24:02,837
You've taught me too well,
I'm afraid.
363
00:24:02,940 --> 00:24:06,603
Why don't you come with me next Tuesday?
The more the merrier.
364
00:24:06,711 --> 00:24:08,838
I don't think humor is the way
to deal with this.
365
00:24:08,946 --> 00:24:10,846
- But if you really feel...
- Shh.
366
00:24:32,570 --> 00:24:34,834
[Loud Whistling]
367
00:24:48,152 --> 00:24:50,552
Teddy?
368
00:24:50,655 --> 00:24:53,215
Teddy, it's me, Marion.
369
00:24:53,324 --> 00:24:55,815
Everything's gonna be all right.
370
00:24:55,927 --> 00:24:58,054
Mr. Steele says Rina
isn't really dead.
371
00:24:58,162 --> 00:25:00,630
We merely begin with
all the known facts, Miss Travis.
372
00:25:00,731 --> 00:25:04,929
And from those, try to make
the creative leap to a working hypothesis...
373
00:25:05,036 --> 00:25:06,936
or theory if you will.
374
00:25:07,038 --> 00:25:09,529
- Teddy?
- It's all right, Teddy, really.
375
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,041
From there we seek out corroborating
evidence to buttress our theory...
376
00:25:13,144 --> 00:25:16,978
until we feel confident in saying,
with a high degree of certainty...
377
00:25:17,081 --> 00:25:19,845
that Rina is most probably...
378
00:25:19,951 --> 00:25:21,851
[Screams]
379
00:25:24,689 --> 00:25:26,589
Dead.
380
00:25:28,092 --> 00:25:31,255
Well, it was only a theory.
381
00:25:34,832 --> 00:25:37,392
But you said Rina faked
her own murder.
382
00:25:37,502 --> 00:25:41,233
In her studio, she had. Obviously,
someone else knew it was staged...
383
00:25:41,339 --> 00:25:45,173
an accomplice perhaps...
and decided to make it a reality.
384
00:25:45,276 --> 00:25:47,938
Probably to keep
all the paintings for himself.
385
00:25:48,045 --> 00:25:51,071
Himself? You're not thinking
it was Teddy?
386
00:25:51,182 --> 00:25:53,616
No. No.
387
00:25:53,718 --> 00:25:55,777
But we did leave him
there this afternoon.
388
00:25:55,887 --> 00:26:00,756
And, uh, he wasn't there
when we discovered Rina.
389
00:26:00,858 --> 00:26:02,849
Then you are saying
it was Teddy, aren't you?
390
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,054
We're merely saying
that in light of the facts...
391
00:26:06,164 --> 00:26:08,860
- it might be wise to prepare yourself
for the worst. - Laura. Excuse me.
392
00:26:08,966 --> 00:26:11,491
Can I see you for a second?
It's important.
393
00:26:13,504 --> 00:26:17,565
[Clears Throat]
You see, Marion...
394
00:26:17,675 --> 00:26:21,941
there are unfortunate surprises
even in the most trusting of relationships.
395
00:26:22,046 --> 00:26:26,312
Mr. Steele, Darryl said to tell you to
take all the time you want on the color.
396
00:26:26,417 --> 00:26:28,908
- He gets paid by the hour.
- Thank you.
397
00:26:29,020 --> 00:26:31,580
And, Miss Travis,
someone named Giovanni called.
398
00:26:31,689 --> 00:26:35,819
He said he'd like to arrange
private sessions for you and Laura together.
399
00:26:35,927 --> 00:26:39,761
- He feels you're both that good.
- [Steele] Good God in heaven.
400
00:26:39,864 --> 00:26:43,356
You know him too?
The man's an insatiable animal.
401
00:26:43,467 --> 00:26:46,698
Giovanni? An animal?
402
00:26:46,804 --> 00:26:51,104
Believe me, compared to some of the sculpture
instructors I've had, he's a pussycat.
403
00:26:51,209 --> 00:26:53,143
Sculpture instructor?
404
00:26:53,244 --> 00:26:56,873
Yes, on Tuesday nights.
That's how I met Laura.
405
00:26:56,981 --> 00:27:01,077
He's very encouraging,
and Laura has a natural talent.
406
00:27:01,185 --> 00:27:03,585
You should see her piece,
The Lovers.
407
00:27:03,688 --> 00:27:08,284
- For rusty carburetors and brake drums,
it's terribly romantic. - Mm-hmm.
408
00:27:08,392 --> 00:27:11,555
Seems Teddy had some gambling
debts before the marriage.
409
00:27:11,662 --> 00:27:14,153
He embezzled money from Rina
to pay them off.
410
00:27:14,265 --> 00:27:17,598
She found out about it, collected enough
evidence to have him convicted...
411
00:27:17,702 --> 00:27:20,000
and kept him on
a short string ever since.
412
00:27:20,104 --> 00:27:21,901
No wonder he couldn't
leave her for Marion.
413
00:27:22,006 --> 00:27:24,873
With Rina out of the picture,
he's out from under a tight rap...
414
00:27:24,976 --> 00:27:29,003
worth a small fortune in artwork
and free to do as he pleases.
415
00:27:29,113 --> 00:27:31,479
You want my vote?
416
00:27:31,582 --> 00:27:33,675
I'm afraid to start counting them.
417
00:27:33,784 --> 00:27:35,809
Oh, not to worry, Marion.
418
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,323
Even the best of detectives
can be occasionally misled by the facts...
419
00:27:40,424 --> 00:27:42,289
particularly when
they're not fully explained.
420
00:27:42,393 --> 00:27:46,523
And I can identify with Teddy's predicament.
Now, trust me.
421
00:27:46,631 --> 00:27:50,897
We'll find Teddy's innocent,
no matter how remote it may seem.
422
00:27:51,002 --> 00:27:53,869
- Oh.
- Oh, there, there, now.
423
00:27:53,971 --> 00:27:55,905
[Soft Chuckle]
424
00:28:04,148 --> 00:28:08,983
[Clears Throat]
Laura, I owe you an apology.
425
00:28:10,254 --> 00:28:12,154
You do.
426
00:28:12,256 --> 00:28:15,748
Jealousy is a petty, childish emotion.
427
00:28:15,860 --> 00:28:21,298
What you do with Giovanni, et al., on Tuesday
nights is your own affair, so to speak.
428
00:28:21,399 --> 00:28:23,299
Thank you.
429
00:28:23,401 --> 00:28:27,235
My hopes for a fuller relationship
between us were possessive and unrealistic.
430
00:28:27,338 --> 00:28:32,640
I can see that now. I appreciate the way
you helped me through a difficult adjustment.
431
00:28:32,743 --> 00:28:35,109
It won't happen again.
432
00:28:35,212 --> 00:28:38,477
Well, you know,
I don't think we need write anything in stone...
433
00:28:38,582 --> 00:28:41,881
- [Phone Buzzing]
- Excuse me, please.
434
00:28:41,986 --> 00:28:45,046
Sorry. Steele here.
435
00:28:45,156 --> 00:28:49,252
All right, it's 11:30. I waited and I called.
Now what do you want?
436
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,225
Ah, Darlene.
437
00:28:51,329 --> 00:28:53,490
What do you mean, Darlene?
438
00:28:53,597 --> 00:28:57,556
Yes, tonight.
Of course I remember.
439
00:28:57,668 --> 00:29:00,728
- You're pulling something, aren't you?
- You have a key, don't you?
440
00:29:00,838 --> 00:29:04,001
All right, tell me what you're doing,
or I'm gonna hang up right now.
441
00:29:04,108 --> 00:29:07,339
Just let yourself in.
I'll be by shortly.
442
00:29:08,446 --> 00:29:10,277
Silk?
443
00:29:10,381 --> 00:29:12,281
Always love the feel of silk.
444
00:29:15,786 --> 00:29:19,051
Very well. Very well.
Okay. Until then.
445
00:29:19,156 --> 00:29:21,681
Mm-hmm. Bye-bye.
446
00:29:21,792 --> 00:29:23,953
- Sorry, Laura. What were you saying about stone?
- Look.
447
00:29:24,061 --> 00:29:26,996
I may not have been complete...
448
00:29:27,098 --> 00:29:29,532
That is, if you
really thought that l...
449
00:29:29,633 --> 00:29:31,601
Oh, hell!
450
00:29:33,637 --> 00:29:36,003
Give my best to Darlene.
451
00:29:36,107 --> 00:29:39,338
Laura. Laura, wait, wait, wait!
Darlene is...
452
00:29:45,149 --> 00:29:47,379
[Sighs]
453
00:29:49,086 --> 00:29:51,179
Love must truly be
an enigma, Fred.
454
00:29:51,288 --> 00:29:53,051
How's that, sir?
455
00:29:53,157 --> 00:29:56,718
Because I can't tell
if I'm winning or losing.
456
00:30:06,137 --> 00:30:09,300
- [Gasps]
- You scream and it's all over.
457
00:30:38,936 --> 00:30:41,700
Don't shoot, Leo.
It's me.
458
00:30:41,806 --> 00:30:43,706
Steele.
459
00:30:43,808 --> 00:30:48,575
You know, this is some shed
you got here. You want some?
460
00:30:48,679 --> 00:30:52,308
I'm sorry I scared you, Miss Holt,
but I'm kind of a wreck myself.
461
00:30:52,416 --> 00:30:55,817
You know, getting set up once is
bad enough, but twice?
462
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,150
So you left the loft
to look for this?
463
00:30:58,255 --> 00:31:01,588
Well, see, I couldn't believe that Rina
would really leave me anything.
464
00:31:01,692 --> 00:31:05,287
I mean, especially her paintings.
Then I remembered...
465
00:31:05,396 --> 00:31:08,194
she kept all her legal papers
in a safe in the floor in the bedroom.
466
00:31:08,299 --> 00:31:10,927
So I went to check.
467
00:31:11,035 --> 00:31:13,799
Then when I got back to the loft,
there's Rina, dead again.
468
00:31:13,904 --> 00:31:18,568
So I ran. Someone's trying to bury me,
Miss Holt, as fast as they can.
469
00:31:18,676 --> 00:31:21,008
Now I'm no Einstein,
but that piece of paper there...
470
00:31:21,111 --> 00:31:24,080
I think that sticks the blame
on someone else for a change.
471
00:31:24,181 --> 00:31:27,981
Well, according to this,
Rina sold all her paintings...
472
00:31:28,085 --> 00:31:31,145
including the ones nobody's
seen yet, to a consortium.
473
00:31:31,255 --> 00:31:34,156
That's good for me, right?
474
00:31:34,258 --> 00:31:37,421
Well, it hardly clears you...
475
00:31:37,528 --> 00:31:40,258
especially since
you didn't even know about it.
476
00:31:40,364 --> 00:31:44,562
But it does point elsewhere,
maybe to Devereaux or Spriggs.
477
00:31:44,668 --> 00:31:47,466
Either one's okay with me.
As long as we do it right away.
478
00:31:47,571 --> 00:31:49,562
I don't want to be a notch
on some cop's.38.
479
00:31:49,673 --> 00:31:52,471
In that case, you shouldn't go
back to the loft.
480
00:31:52,576 --> 00:31:55,636
Are you kidding?
I'm never going back there.
481
00:31:55,746 --> 00:31:58,442
You take the key.
I don't want them to find it on me.
482
00:31:58,549 --> 00:32:01,575
Then I guess you'd better
spend the night with me.
483
00:32:01,685 --> 00:32:04,210
Hey, thanks for
the offer, Miss Holt.
484
00:32:04,321 --> 00:32:07,449
But, well, you see,
since Marion...
485
00:32:07,558 --> 00:32:10,356
I've kind of sworn off fooling around,
you know what I mean?
486
00:32:11,529 --> 00:32:14,362
I meant on the couch.
487
00:32:14,465 --> 00:32:16,433
Oh.
488
00:32:16,534 --> 00:32:19,594
Look, the Casselas dame
is dead for good.
489
00:32:19,703 --> 00:32:21,637
But somebody snatched
the paintings.
490
00:32:21,739 --> 00:32:25,505
We find the paintings,
we got the killer, capiche?
491
00:32:25,609 --> 00:32:28,100
An eminently
sound deduction, Leo.
492
00:32:28,212 --> 00:32:32,706
So I figure, we're both pros,
why butt heads over this, huh?
493
00:32:32,816 --> 00:32:36,252
We go arm in arm,
we find the oilskins together...
494
00:32:36,353 --> 00:32:38,844
split the recovery fee,
become partners.
495
00:32:38,956 --> 00:32:40,548
Partners?
496
00:32:40,658 --> 00:32:43,684
- Only thing is you gotta dump baby doll.
- Miss Holt?
497
00:32:43,794 --> 00:32:48,288
She's no good for you, Steele.
I'm talking albatross here.
498
00:32:48,399 --> 00:32:52,130
Secretary one week,
detective the next.
499
00:32:52,236 --> 00:32:56,172
I mean, you and I know being
a real detective takes a certain...
500
00:32:56,273 --> 00:32:58,070
Je ne sais quoi.
501
00:32:58,175 --> 00:33:01,235
Yeah, yeah, that too.
But mostly it takes moxie.
502
00:33:01,345 --> 00:33:05,247
I got moxie. You got moxie
Together we got moxie up the kazoo.
503
00:33:05,349 --> 00:33:08,876
What do ya say? Partners?
504
00:33:08,986 --> 00:33:11,045
I don't know, Leo.
505
00:33:11,155 --> 00:33:13,555
You strike me more
as a lone wolf.
506
00:33:13,657 --> 00:33:16,649
The lone wolf. That's great.
The lone wolf.
507
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,490
Why don't we see our way
through this case...
508
00:33:19,597 --> 00:33:23,033
and reconsider
our options then?
509
00:33:23,133 --> 00:33:25,897
Make a great business card.
Gilt-edged.
510
00:33:26,003 --> 00:33:29,268
- Blitzman and Steele. Or Steele and Blitzman.
- [Chuckles]
511
00:33:29,373 --> 00:33:32,342
Hey, I eat a guy's liverwurst,
I'm gonna get fussy about billing?
512
00:33:32,443 --> 00:33:35,844
- Actually, it's pate, but never mind.
- Okay, okay.
513
00:33:35,946 --> 00:33:38,881
I see you want to put us on
a little shakedown cruise, right?
514
00:33:38,983 --> 00:33:40,974
I'm game.
First thing in the morning...
515
00:33:41,085 --> 00:33:43,713
You're gonna see to it
that my lock is repaired.
516
00:33:43,821 --> 00:33:45,516
- Taiwan.
- Hmm, sure.
517
00:33:45,623 --> 00:33:49,059
- And they're ruining the detective business.
- Yeah. Good night.
518
00:33:52,062 --> 00:33:55,225
Audacity, Laura.
It makes kings of commoners.
519
00:33:55,332 --> 00:33:57,960
You'll never believe the proposition
I had last night.
520
00:33:58,068 --> 00:34:00,593
I doubt that I care
to hear about it.
521
00:34:00,704 --> 00:34:03,867
- But when I got home, I discovered...
- Don't.
522
00:34:03,974 --> 00:34:08,104
I thought about what you said
last night, and you were right.
523
00:34:08,212 --> 00:34:10,476
Maybe we should keep
our private lives private.
524
00:34:10,581 --> 00:34:12,776
Each to his own,
no questions asked.
525
00:34:12,883 --> 00:34:15,875
Besides, we have a case to solve,
and it isn't getting any simpler.
526
00:34:15,986 --> 00:34:20,446
- Wait here.
- But... But I'm talking about the case!
527
00:34:20,557 --> 00:34:23,526
[Shower Running]
528
00:34:37,808 --> 00:34:41,073
[Phone Ringing]
529
00:34:41,178 --> 00:34:44,079
- Steele here.
- You? What are you doing there?
530
00:34:44,181 --> 00:34:47,082
Why? Who were you expecting,
Miss Wolfe?
531
00:34:47,184 --> 00:34:50,347
Hey, if you set me up last night
to take advantage of Laura...
532
00:34:50,454 --> 00:34:53,582
I can assure you.
Any advantages taken weren't mine.
533
00:34:53,691 --> 00:34:56,251
Now, to the purpose
of your call.
534
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,920
The gallery owner,
Spriggs, just called.
535
00:34:59,029 --> 00:35:01,293
He said he had to see you
right away. It was urgent...
536
00:35:01,398 --> 00:35:04,834
- but wouldn't give me any details over the phone.
- Message received. Thank you.
537
00:35:06,737 --> 00:35:08,864
[Both]
We need to see Spriggs.
538
00:35:08,972 --> 00:35:10,872
- He called?
- Apparently.
539
00:35:10,974 --> 00:35:14,933
But, Laura, listen to me.
If because of Darlene you thought...
540
00:35:15,045 --> 00:35:18,811
- No.
- That is, if it caused you to rebound into...
541
00:35:18,916 --> 00:35:22,443
No questions, remember?
Just the case. Spriggs.
542
00:35:22,553 --> 00:35:24,544
Right. Spriggs.
543
00:35:26,957 --> 00:35:30,358
- Spriggs Gallery. You got that, Leo?
- [Horn Honks]
544
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,900
- Partners?
- Well...
545
00:35:39,002 --> 00:35:41,732
He actually suggested
we all become partners?
546
00:35:41,839 --> 00:35:44,740
Well, not all of us. Um...
547
00:35:44,842 --> 00:35:48,676
Leo feels that the agency
might be overstaffed.
548
00:35:48,779 --> 00:35:50,679
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
549
00:35:50,781 --> 00:35:54,717
- Whom does he think we should cut?
- [Door Slams]
550
00:35:59,022 --> 00:36:01,456
Mr. Steele.
551
00:36:01,558 --> 00:36:06,052
Anita still glued to the damn soap...
[Groans]
552
00:36:16,306 --> 00:36:19,742
- Ah, damn! It's blocked. Let's go around the back.
- Right.
553
00:36:19,843 --> 00:36:23,574
Hey, Holt, where's Steele?
554
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,376
Hi, Steele. Where's Spriggs?
555
00:36:27,818 --> 00:36:31,151
Hey, somebody
just killed Spriggs!
556
00:36:37,494 --> 00:36:40,930
- Did you make the car, the plate, a face?
- Nothing.
557
00:36:42,499 --> 00:36:44,626
Well, the worms
will be singing tonight.
558
00:36:46,703 --> 00:36:49,570
An appalling metaphor, Leo,
but accurate.
559
00:36:49,673 --> 00:36:51,868
Best call the police,
I suppose.
560
00:36:51,975 --> 00:36:54,239
If only we knew what
he was trying to tell us.
561
00:36:54,344 --> 00:36:57,279
- Laura?
- There ain't no telephone to the grave, Steele.
562
00:36:57,381 --> 00:37:00,976
- Laura?
- We're on our own. Blitzman and Steele.
563
00:37:01,084 --> 00:37:05,111
Okay. Steele and Blitzman.
Steele? Steele?
564
00:37:09,092 --> 00:37:13,358
Unless I'm mistaken, these are the slides
of the missing Rina Casselas paintings.
565
00:37:13,463 --> 00:37:16,091
A logical deduction, Laura.
But what about Spriggs's assailant?
566
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,225
I hate to say it,
but I think Teddy's back in the fire.
567
00:37:18,335 --> 00:37:20,235
Teddy didn't kill Spriggs.
568
00:37:20,337 --> 00:37:25,274
But if we can find the paintings, then we'll
also find the killer. Devereaux, perhaps.
569
00:37:25,375 --> 00:37:27,775
You hit the kitten
on the head, baby doll.
570
00:37:27,878 --> 00:37:30,847
So, how do we find
the paintings, coach?
571
00:37:32,516 --> 00:37:34,950
How do we find the paintings?
572
00:37:35,052 --> 00:37:39,079
A simple enough procedure
for seasoned professionals, Leo.
573
00:37:39,189 --> 00:37:41,680
Teddy said Rina painted these pictures
in a secret hiding place...
574
00:37:41,792 --> 00:37:44,226
known only to herself
and her accomplice.
575
00:37:44,328 --> 00:37:46,455
With Rina dead, where better to continue
hiding the paintings...
576
00:37:46,563 --> 00:37:48,463
but that same
secret hiding place?
577
00:37:48,565 --> 00:37:51,193
Those palm trees.
578
00:37:53,637 --> 00:37:55,832
They're in at least half
of these pictures.
579
00:37:55,939 --> 00:37:59,568
- So what?
- I've seen those palm trees before.
580
00:37:59,676 --> 00:38:02,304
Of course you have.
It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
581
00:38:02,412 --> 00:38:07,440
United Artists. 1963. Spencer Tracy
and a carload of comics.
582
00:38:07,551 --> 00:38:11,180
The money was hidden underneath
the crossed palms.
583
00:38:11,288 --> 00:38:15,691
- I think they could be.
- [Steele] There they are.!
584
00:38:25,435 --> 00:38:28,427
Rina must have painted those pictures
somewhere around here.
585
00:38:37,114 --> 00:38:41,244
Laura, how can you be so sure
that Teddy didn't kill Spriggs?
586
00:38:41,351 --> 00:38:44,582
- Because he spent the night with me.
- Teddy?
587
00:38:44,688 --> 00:38:46,952
You mean this morning
in the shower?
588
00:38:47,057 --> 00:38:50,185
- He didn't know where else to turn.
- I know the feeling.
589
00:38:50,294 --> 00:38:52,888
Hey, Steele.
This is Heart Attack Hill.
590
00:38:52,996 --> 00:38:55,260
Couldn't you find another way
to get up here?
591
00:38:55,365 --> 00:38:58,960
As usual, Leo, your sense
of timing is impeccable.
592
00:38:59,069 --> 00:39:01,936
- Well, I knew you'd find it.
- You did?
593
00:39:14,451 --> 00:39:17,614
- I'll bust it down.
- I don't think that would be wise, Leo.
594
00:39:17,721 --> 00:39:20,622
Cover your eyes.
Splinters are dangerous.
595
00:39:22,192 --> 00:39:24,660
[Groans]
Holy Mother of Pearl.
596
00:39:24,761 --> 00:39:27,730
A trick door.
Who could tell?
597
00:39:27,831 --> 00:39:30,800
Uh-uh. Perhaps
there's an easier route.
598
00:39:38,475 --> 00:39:41,740
I can do it. I can do it.
599
00:39:41,845 --> 00:39:44,313
[Grunts Loudly]
600
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,325
[Door Closes]
601
00:40:08,572 --> 00:40:12,099
You better stay here, baby doll.
Things might get rough.
602
00:40:31,428 --> 00:40:33,396
[Groans]
603
00:40:36,433 --> 00:40:38,424
Nice work, Steele.
604
00:40:40,771 --> 00:40:43,467
Let me mark him, Steele.
Just the tip of his nose.
605
00:40:43,573 --> 00:40:45,768
Would you tell this animal
to leave me alone?
606
00:40:45,876 --> 00:40:48,538
You were Rina's accomplice
in the staging of her murder.
607
00:40:48,645 --> 00:40:50,545
I wanna talk to my lawyer.
608
00:40:50,647 --> 00:40:53,115
Then you murdered Rina,
since she was legally dead already.
609
00:40:53,216 --> 00:40:55,377
But Spriggs wasn't prepared
for that and panicked.
610
00:40:55,485 --> 00:41:00,149
That's why he called us. Unfortunately,
you got to him before we did.
611
00:41:00,257 --> 00:41:02,782
I could dislocate a joint.
612
00:41:02,893 --> 00:41:04,952
The contract between Rina
and the consortium you formed...
613
00:41:05,062 --> 00:41:07,030
should provide enough
of a motive.
614
00:41:07,130 --> 00:41:09,826
And the fingerprints on
the sculpture in Spriggs...
615
00:41:09,933 --> 00:41:13,266
will no doubt prove
equally revealing.
616
00:41:13,370 --> 00:41:15,338
- Let me loosen a tooth or two.
- All right!
617
00:41:15,439 --> 00:41:20,570
Spriggs did panic when he found out
why I brought him into the consortium.
618
00:41:20,677 --> 00:41:23,578
He... He accused me
of killing Rina.
619
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,205
He threatened to go to the police.
I couldn't persuade him otherwise.
620
00:41:26,316 --> 00:41:28,216
But I did not kill Rina!
621
00:41:28,318 --> 00:41:30,183
Chinese water torture.
622
00:41:30,287 --> 00:41:33,654
No, I swear. Why would I kill her?
She'd hidden the paintings someplace.
623
00:41:33,757 --> 00:41:35,987
She was going to get them
when she was killed.
624
00:41:36,093 --> 00:41:40,325
Until I had those paintings, Rina was more
valuable to me alive than dead, right?
625
00:41:40,430 --> 00:41:43,661
That does seem to follow
a certain sordid logic.
626
00:41:43,767 --> 00:41:47,897
- Where are the paintings?
- I don't know. I thought they'd be here.
627
00:41:48,004 --> 00:41:52,100
But I've taken the place apart,
and they're not.
628
00:41:52,209 --> 00:41:55,872
You're onto something. I can tell
by that delicious gleam in your eye.
629
00:41:55,979 --> 00:41:59,278
- I think we've been missing
something rather obvious. - Well, I'm still missing it.
630
00:41:59,382 --> 00:42:03,819
- What are you talking about?
- She was going to get the paintings.
631
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,388
- Of course.
- Of course what?
632
00:42:06,490 --> 00:42:10,392
My God, get this maniac
away from me.
633
00:42:10,494 --> 00:42:14,089
Leo, please.!
He's already confessed. Please.
634
00:42:24,941 --> 00:42:27,535
You really think the paintings
could be here, Steele?
635
00:42:27,644 --> 00:42:31,944
Rina knew about Teddy and Marion.
It's possible she knew about this too.
636
00:42:32,048 --> 00:42:34,608
[Laura] It's the last place
anyone would suspect her to use.
637
00:42:34,718 --> 00:42:37,949
Devereaux said she was going to get them
just before she was killed.
638
00:42:42,526 --> 00:42:45,825
It's nice stuff, all right,
but I don't see what we're looking for.
639
00:42:45,929 --> 00:42:48,363
If you were going to hide
a set of paintings...
640
00:42:48,465 --> 00:42:51,832
I'd put them right in front of your nose
where you'd never see 'em.
641
00:43:06,850 --> 00:43:09,410
[Leo]
Pay dirt.!
642
00:43:09,519 --> 00:43:11,953
Listen, Steele, why don't
we forget the recovery fee...
643
00:43:12,055 --> 00:43:14,319
and dance these beauties
into the black market?
644
00:43:14,424 --> 00:43:17,416
I got a friend that knows
a lot of high rollers in Houston.
645
00:43:17,527 --> 00:43:20,087
And they eat this kind
of stuff for breakfast.
646
00:43:20,197 --> 00:43:23,826
- We haven't found Rina's killer, Leo.
- Devereaux, right?
647
00:43:23,934 --> 00:43:26,334
No. Not until he knew
where the paintings were.
648
00:43:26,436 --> 00:43:28,427
Then Spriggs. It's always
those little guys.
649
00:43:28,538 --> 00:43:30,768
No. Spriggs didn't even
know about the scam.
650
00:43:30,874 --> 00:43:33,502
He thought Rina really
was murdered in her studio.
651
00:43:33,610 --> 00:43:36,443
Well, then, if it wasn't Marion,
and it wasn't Teddy...
652
00:43:36,546 --> 00:43:38,537
What difference does it make?
We got the brass ring.
653
00:43:38,648 --> 00:43:43,950
I could go out and rent us a truck and have these
in Houston before the sun hit the horizon.
654
00:43:44,054 --> 00:43:45,988
What do you say, Steele?
655
00:43:46,089 --> 00:43:49,525
- Leo, how did you get us in herejust now?
- What?
656
00:43:49,626 --> 00:43:51,287
- With a key. Why?
- Whose key?
657
00:43:51,394 --> 00:43:55,296
- Uh, Teddy's key. Teddy gave
it to me when we were here. - No, no, no, no.
658
00:43:55,398 --> 00:43:59,494
I have Teddy's key. And Marion
had hers the night we found Rina.
659
00:43:59,603 --> 00:44:02,470
What is this, Steele?
You're letting baby doll run the show?
660
00:44:02,572 --> 00:44:05,063
Where'd you get the key, Leo?
661
00:44:05,175 --> 00:44:08,303
Rina must have had one made up
so she could get to the paintings.
662
00:44:08,411 --> 00:44:10,879
But the police
didn't find one on the body.
663
00:44:10,981 --> 00:44:14,974
Did you come looking for Teddy
and walk in on Rina instead?
664
00:44:15,085 --> 00:44:18,418
- I warned you about her, Steele.
- Oh, no, Leo.
665
00:44:18,521 --> 00:44:21,354
Rina laughed at me.
I made her an offer.
666
00:44:21,458 --> 00:44:25,554
An even split on the paintings,
and I would've kept her secret.
667
00:44:25,662 --> 00:44:29,359
Twenty years in this business
carrying a license...
668
00:44:29,466 --> 00:44:33,027
and this is the sweetest thing
I ever stepped into.
669
00:44:33,136 --> 00:44:36,572
Crazy dame.
She ran for it.
670
00:44:36,673 --> 00:44:39,198
I went after her and got a piece
of her coat by the elevator.
671
00:44:39,309 --> 00:44:43,837
Next thing you know, I'm looking down
the shaft at a stiff.
672
00:44:43,947 --> 00:44:46,711
I didn't mean for it
to go sour like that.
673
00:44:46,816 --> 00:44:48,750
Just my luck, huh?
674
00:44:48,852 --> 00:44:52,083
The goose dies, and I don't even know
where the golden eggs are.
675
00:44:52,188 --> 00:44:54,656
So you hitched yourself onto me
and hoped it would pay off.
676
00:44:54,758 --> 00:44:58,125
Leo, you're a detective.
Doesn't that mean anything to you?
677
00:44:58,228 --> 00:45:01,095
Yeah. It means teaching
frightened old ladies how to use Mace...
678
00:45:01,197 --> 00:45:04,530
three times a week
just to keep my car running.
679
00:45:04,634 --> 00:45:07,228
You pegged me, Steele.
The lone wolf.
680
00:45:07,337 --> 00:45:11,273
What have I got
that's so great, huh? Nothing.
681
00:45:11,374 --> 00:45:15,868
And when I take the big sleep in some
charity ward on skid row, who's gonna care?
682
00:45:15,979 --> 00:45:18,174
Nobody, that's who.
683
00:45:18,281 --> 00:45:21,114
Once, just once,
I want to score it big.
684
00:45:21,217 --> 00:45:25,085
You're going to have to kill us
to do it, Leo.
685
00:45:25,188 --> 00:45:27,918
That's right.
686
00:45:28,024 --> 00:45:30,424
Don't come any closer, Steele.
I'll shoot.
687
00:45:34,097 --> 00:45:36,361
I don't think so, Leo.
688
00:45:41,104 --> 00:45:44,562
- I always wanted to send somebody up the river.
- Hmm.
689
00:45:44,674 --> 00:45:47,609
I never figured on it being me.
690
00:45:51,848 --> 00:45:54,942
The same color?
After all we went through?
691
00:45:55,051 --> 00:45:57,849
A man needs a little consistency
in his life, Darryl.
692
00:45:57,954 --> 00:46:02,186
Something reassuring and familiar.
Something to inspire trust.
693
00:46:02,292 --> 00:46:04,192
What's this about trust?
694
00:46:04,294 --> 00:46:07,627
He wants me to paint the walls
trustworthy gray.
695
00:46:07,731 --> 00:46:11,098
- I approve the choice. It was worth waiting for.
- [Door Opens]
696
00:46:11,201 --> 00:46:13,226
Laura, where would you like this?
697
00:46:13,336 --> 00:46:15,236
Uh, right through there.
698
00:46:15,338 --> 00:46:18,774
- What is that you're taking into my office, Teddy?
- A hernia.
699
00:46:30,720 --> 00:46:35,157
- Before we leave, we'd like
to tell you the good news. - Mm-hmm.
700
00:46:35,258 --> 00:46:37,852
- Teddy and I are getting married.
- Hey!
701
00:46:37,961 --> 00:46:40,862
- That's wonderful.
- I've turned over a new leaf.
702
00:46:40,964 --> 00:46:45,628
No more living off other people. My irresponsible
days are over. I found a new profession.
703
00:46:45,735 --> 00:46:49,501
It's respectable, secure
and dependable.
704
00:46:49,606 --> 00:46:54,908
- And what's that, Teddy?
- I've taken up painting.
705
00:46:55,011 --> 00:46:57,241
- I'm so excited, I could almost...
- Oh, don't, princess.
706
00:46:57,347 --> 00:47:00,544
We've got a plane to catch. We're off
to Arkansas to see dear old Dad.
707
00:47:00,650 --> 00:47:03,312
- [Sighs]
- Well, Steele, muchas gracias.
708
00:47:03,420 --> 00:47:05,479
Don't mention it.
709
00:47:07,123 --> 00:47:09,284
Princess, come on.
710
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,925
[Chuckling]
711
00:47:20,036 --> 00:47:25,497
Laura, I realize we agreed
to no personal questions...
712
00:47:25,608 --> 00:47:30,705
but in the interest
of our mutual sanity...
713
00:47:30,814 --> 00:47:34,011
what would you say
to 60 seconds of total honesty?
714
00:47:34,117 --> 00:47:37,746
A full minute?
Are you sure you can handle it?
715
00:47:37,854 --> 00:47:40,687
I'm desperate enough
to suggest it.
716
00:47:42,492 --> 00:47:44,460
All right.
717
00:47:46,763 --> 00:47:50,062
- I'm not having an affair with Giovanni.
- There is no Darlene.
718
00:47:50,166 --> 00:47:53,602
- Teddy spent the night on the couch.
- I spent the night with Leo.
719
00:47:53,703 --> 00:47:58,538
- The Lovers is a sculpture I've been working on.
- Oh.
720
00:48:03,213 --> 00:48:07,650
- Do you like it?
- Um, inspired.
721
00:48:07,750 --> 00:48:11,413
- Honestly?
- That is what we're doing, isn't it?
722
00:48:14,023 --> 00:48:17,823
In that case,
I have one more question.
723
00:48:17,927 --> 00:48:19,758
Fire away.
724
00:48:20,897 --> 00:48:23,559
What's your real name?
725
00:48:23,666 --> 00:48:25,566
My real name?
726
00:48:27,937 --> 00:48:30,371
Ah, time's up.
727
00:49:05,074 --> 00:49:06,371
[Mews]
728
00:49:06,421 --> 00:49:10,971
