this is the story of Walter

Nea doing what he likes best fighting

crime in the streets you see Walter's a

policeman unfortunately the chief

doesn't want Walter on the streets

Captain get back to your cage

boy now so Walter must fight crime in

his own way in the computer room that's

where he's an expert fortunately for me

Walter's Advanced knowledge of

electronics led him to experiment with

what is called a hologram that's a very

fancy word for a three-dimensional

picture that when perfected can be made

to look real sound real as a matter of

fact given enough power it can even be

made to feel

real that's kind of what got me into

this

[Music]

world

my name is

Automan you must be Walter

Nea how did you know that it's on the

programming you fed into my system I

must say Walter you're very good very

good

indeed I look

wonderful if you do say so yourself well

you programmed me to be honest but tell

me why did you call me Automan it means

that you're the world's first truly

automatic man

you can do anything because you're not

real oh but I am I'm as real as you are

just different and thanks to you perfect

nobody's perfect Automan that's not true

Walter you've programmed me to observe

other people and do whatever they can do

as well as they can do it Jimmy con is

playing tennis John Travolta dancing in

fact on a scale of 1 to 10 think of me

as an

11 I've created a

monster no what Walter really created

was a the wonderful Force for

good

Automan that's

I was working late at the office I

didn't get home until just before I

called you what about you Mrs time I was

with friends from my bridge club I got

here right after Dennis have you figured

out what's missing all my jewelry except

for what I'm wearing the good silver

it's all gone yeah well don't forget my

ring I hope you have adequate insurance

coverage Lieutenant it's not the dollars

my wife and I have lost items of great

sentimental value this is officer

nebiker has been working with me on a

string of is just like this

one yes all with no forced entry your

doors and windows were all locked all of

them were very cautious people yes well

so are these burglars Mr Stanton they

are quick they are selective and they

don't leave Clues have either of you

given your house key to anyone recently

absolutely not this doesn't sound very

reassuring well before we get a break in

a case we don't like to raise hopes too

high however I can assure you that

officer Neer once he has taken down all

of the facts will cross reference them

with all of his other reports and have

the answers on my desk first thing in

the morning I will I mean I will first

thing now look Stanton you said you'd

have the microchip I've got a problem I

have the chip in a ring and the Ring's

been stolen we had a deal the deal is

still good as soon as I get the ring

back I don't give a damn about the

ring I want that microchip how did I

know it was going to be stolen well find

it or you're a dead

man

[Music]

morning

[Applause]

[Music]

curser you called me Walter an hour

ago tough night Walter yeah I didn't get

any sleep I ran theft reports all night

trying to find a common denominator all

I could come up with is that three of

the 25 victims went to the same Club on

the nights that they were robbed three

out of 25 that seems like more than a

coincidence yeah I thought so too

especially considering that zippers only

opened a couple of months ago which is

about when these burglaries started I

don't think I've ever heard of zippers

it's a very elegant nightclub uh that

features uh male exotic dancers all male

no women uh the women are all in the

audience in fact uh the only place the

men are allowed is on stage how

fascinating Walter what women really

come to see is uh go on Walter you know

maybe it's time I added the chapter on

the birds and the bees to your program

Walter you underestimate yourself thanks

to you I'm already a wiiz of zoology now

tell me how these animals figure into

all

this keep me

posted Fontana says the guy has two

maybe three hostages with him what's he

packing a small

Arsenal uh sorry to disturb you Captain

I just wanted to tell lieutenant Cur

that I think I've got a lead in that

string of burglaries burglaries you know

what I have on my hands here Well's

going to have to wait well but maybe you

can't wait if it's that hot why don't

you run with it yourself three victims

were patrons of the same nightclub I got

a gunman threatening multiple murder you

want me to drop everything and listen to

a burglary lead get out of my office

right now Neisha you hear what I'm

saying don't worry Captain I I'll handle

it myself you'll do that

okay did I just

say

I expected you an hour ago I'm ready to

go go where our investigation of zippers

how many men did Captain Boyd give you

zel zil is he that new fellow in

Bunko they had their hands full at

headquarters today Boyd wants me to

handle it alone no problem all you

really needed is me unfortunately Otto

you're the wrong sex I beg your pardon

oh what I need is a is a woman to get me

inside zippers why don't you just tell

them you're a policeman what if the

management is involved until I know more

I don't want to tip my hand very sound

reasoning Walter I I think I'll give

roxan a call allow

me you want to take me where zippers I

can't explain it now I'll pick you up in

about 20

minutes are you sure you wouldn't like a

backup thanks Otto but the last thing I

want to do is attract a lot of attention

want I'm sure see you when I get

minut is there a problem Mr Stanton

there won't be when you recover the rest

wife to shop for something in

Black

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Victor sir I'm having second thoughts

about giving Stanton more time what' you

have in

mind but you and Victor can talk to the

burglers what about Stan I see no need

for a

middleman just tell them the plans have

been

changed officer Neer this is Dennis

Stanton I wonder uh could you come out

to the

house well I

uh I stole something from work and I

think my life is in

danger thank

[Music]

you hey Joe come on on got

[Music]

something this was no accident Jack he

called me less than an hour ago telling

me that his life was in danger then I

arrive and find him at the bottom of his

swimming pool all right that sounds like

a mob hit let's wait for the coroner's

report before we start calling it murder

though right whatever you call it I know

it's tied up with that ring that was

stolen from it wait a minute wait a

minute how do you know that it's a

Feeling more than anything else maybe

the Ring's the thing he stole from work

maybe you to leave the hunches to

homicide

[Music]

huh

[Music]

how long does it take to run a profile

on one man Hast makes waste Walter it

seems your Mr Stanton worked at an

interesting company Beek Corporation a

Communications firm we're real close

Auto but the pieces don't fit together

yet why was he so concerned over that

ring perhaps the computers at be May

hold the answer to that well can't you

get the information from here I'm afraid

not Walter it seems that BK's installed

an elaborate protection system to guard

their computers against outside taps if

I were there it'd be a piece of cake all

right all right but I suggest you uh put

on something a little more discreet very

well

[Music]

curser is that the only way you know how

to drive this thing well if you wanted

me to go faster why don't you just say

so no

please

[Music]

[Music]

a

[Music]

a

oh what a

shame little Fell's practically a

[Music]

prisoner I think it likes you OT he

senses a certain

[Music]

kinship come on Oto we're here to get

information see you later my little

[Music]

friend

hold we can't have that noisy pile of

metal taging along behind

us going to hurt his feelings that's

ridiculous machines don't have

feelings well now you've done

it what's in

[Music]

here

there she

is to Delila

100 she's beautiful

Walter I thought it was still in the

developmental stage if I'm not mistaken

this is the

Prototype she's supposed to be

state-of-the-art in terms of

security we'll see about

that sorry Automan that's not good

enough Delilah you have quite a

reputation still I'm sure we could work

together if we

try access denied you didn't think I'd

fall for that old line did you what is

it Oto it's her uh trap circuits every

time I enter the wrong code she sends me

through a maze back to where I

began

are you all right I'm fine it's just

that she's a worthy adversary that's

all this should do

it access denied and I'm not even

breathing hard why don't you give up

auto man you'll never penetrate my

memory excuse me Walter I'm going to

have to go inside the computer if I'm

going to avoid those trap

circuits

all right just hurry it up that guard

can walk in here anytime go ahead autom

man give it your best

[Music]

shot come on Oto come

on

Oto that's the alarm in Stanton's office

okay let's

go

AO

it's just the robot from the

display well how did it get down

here OT what happened I'll tell you

later come on

let's

go who turned him

on

ah I think we better merge

right what happened the battle with the

computer it knocked the wind out of me

so to speak I have the strength left to

merge come

on hey that ain't no robot let's get

[Music]

him did you see

that I'm sure glad there's two of us cuz

they wouldn't believe one of

us I don't know if I believe it

myself I hope you learned something in

there I'd sure hate to have gone through

that for nothing it was far from a

wasted trip what do you know about the

federal witness protection program it

gives new identities to people who put

their lives in Jeopardy by testifying

against organized crime that's what

those bogus documents be K deals in her

for not for giving new identities to

Mobsters but to the witnesses against

them and all that information was on

Stanton's computer not the new

identities themselves but Delilah did

finally break down and tell me they were

kept on a separate microchip for

security Stanton's ring it must have

contained that

microchip Stanton must have tried

selling that information to the Mob only

he had the bad luck of having it stolen

out from under him in that burglary

Walter we've got to get that ring if

that list should fall into the wrong

hands a lot of innocent people might be

killed those two robbers must still have

the ring I'll have Jack track down one

we'll go talk to the

[Music]

other there's no one home should we wait

inside might as

[Music]

[Applause]

name

drained
