All language subtitles for Hunter - S03 E09 - The Contract.eng

Hey, hey.

They've given me an hour and
a half to raised $4 million.

Well, we were just running
around the neighborhood,

thought we'd drop by and
acquaint you with your rights.

Hello.

Well, we're going to do it
our way now, you got that?

Why didn't they just snatch
her on the gardener's day off?

They considered everything else.

Why not that?

Well, we're going to
have to figure that out.

That's why they pay
us the big bucks.

And I did hear
back from the Luvacs.

Jerry and Cindy are coming.

All right, what about
Mr. And Mrs. Lewis?

I don't know.
I haven't heard back from him.

Get on the floor.

Face down now!

Now!

Oh!

Oh.

No!

Let go!

Oh!

No!

No!

Oh!

The gardener took
two slugs to the chest.

He died instantly.

How about witnesses, Barney?

Well, the victim's secretary,
she's up in the house.

She's pretty shook up.

Looks like she put
up a fight the whole way.

Yeah, she struggled.

Found her scarf on the lawn,
found this in the street.

Mickey, do me a favor,
call Lieutenant Vinn.

Have him get a hold of the FBI.
- Right.

- Thanks.
- OK.

Have you heard
anything about my wife?

Mr. Hennessey?

Who the hell are you?

Well, I'm Sergeant Hunter,
and this is Sergeant McCall.

We're from
Metropolitan Homicide.

We found this scarf
and this necklace.

Can you tell us if they
belong to your wife?

You think I give a damn?

I mean, my god, my wife is gone.

Where the hell was everyone?

We were sitting at the desk
going over the guest list

for Saturday night.

And we didn't hear anything.

He was just there.

Can you describe the kidnapper?

Oh, he was all dressed in black.

He had on a ski mask and
a black leather jacket

with an eagle on the back.

Tall?
Short?

Brown?
Thin?

What?

Ah, he looked big.

He looked big?

You were there.

You can tell us more than that.

Did he say anything?

He told us to get
down on the floor.

Did he have an accent?

I don't know if
he had an accent.

You don't seem to know anything.

Did he hurt Laura?

Mr. Hennessey, if
I could have done anything

to help her, believe
me, I would have,

but he was pointing a gun at us.

Kaylee, you must have
noticed something about him.

I mean, what color was he?

I don't know.

Mr. Hennessey, calm down.

Calm down?

My wife has just been kidnapped
and god knows what else,

and you have the gall to stand
there and tell me to calm down?

Mr. Hennessey, we
understand how you must feel.

You don't understand anything.

You're cops.

This happened here,
to me, to my wife.

Your gardener has been murdered.

Has anybody called his wife?

Don't pick the phone
up until I tell you to.

Yes?

Speaking.

Jerry, Hunter.

Yes, I'm listening.

I want you put a
tracer on 555-7892.

I understand.

Conversation in progress.

I'll hold.

Yes, you have my word.

That doesn't give
me enough time.

No, no, wait, I'll get it.

I'll be where you want me
when you want me to be there.

Just please, please
don't hurt my wife.

Please.

Jerry, what did you get?

I understand.

Thank you.

What did they say?

They've given me an hour and
a half to raise $4 million.

They said no cops, no FBI.

So we better come
to an understanding.

If you want any cooperation
from me at all, I set the rules.

What are those rules?

I call the shots.

That means the FBI is
out of this completely.

Mr. Hennessy, trust us.

You should work with us.

I call the shots, understand?

Otherwise, I tell you nothing.

Mr. Hennessy, this is
not just a kidnapping.

A homicide occurred here.

I get my wife back with me.

You can play detective
all you damn please.

But unless I have your
agreement that I'm the one that

runs the show, I'm
not going to tell you

what they just told me to do.

Yeah, agreed.

This guy is going to be a
big pain in the you know what.

Listen, his wife's
been kidnapped.

He has the right
to be hysterical.

You want to keep
the FBI out of it?

Oh, I don't know about that.

I don't like the idea of
Hennessey setting these rules.

Well, neither do I. We'll
just have to make up ours

as we go along the way.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

Hunter.

You've interrupted a very
delicate operation here.

We understand that, Willy.

However, we need a
long-distance tracker and a car.

I take it you people have
a yellow authorization form?

Willy, give us
a break, will you?

This is an emergency.

You know, it's always
an emergency with you two.

I give you what you want.

You peel out of here, and I
wind up with flak from the brass

for ignoring procedure.

Uh-uh, no way am I going
to put my butt in a sling

because you two
won't take the time

to go inside and make out a...

Two tickets to the
Raider game Sunday.

How about it Willy?

Cheerleader level.

On the other hand, the safety
of our city is at stake here.

Thatta boy.

Hey, here
comes Mr. Congenial.

Thanks, Bill.

Did you record the serial
numbers of those bills?

We hardly had
time to count them.

I don't really like
having to say this,

but I don't give a
damn about the money.

Let's get going.

Well, we'll get going as soon
as we get you wired for sound.

You're going to
have to wire Clint.

I'll be riding with
the two of you.

Well, what's the matter, Mr.
Hennessey, don't you trust us?

These people made their
instructions very clear,

no cops or FBI involved.

If you want to have
any part in this,

you'll do it with me right there
beside you keeping you honest,

understood?
- Yeah.

Come on, Clint, let's go
get you wired for sound.

I'm at the liquor store.

I'm going to the phone.

Hello.

Go to a phone booth

at the corner of Amherst and
Paso Grande, average 30 miles

per hour.

You'll be there in six
and a half minutes.

OK, if you didn't hear
that, I'm going to the corner

of Amherst and Paso Grande.

Is this what you expected?

The voices are being
electronically distorted.

Prints won't do us any good.

Continue to roll though.

No, Mr. Hennessey, I was hoping
there'd be a little stupid.

So far, they're not.

Yes?

Did you
bring the paper and pencil?

Yes.

Drive east on Long Acre road

for exactly 22.3 miles.

You'll see an oil
pumping station.

There's a fuel boat there.

It will ring when you get there.

We have a vantage point that
covers 200 square miles.

So if you're followed,
we will know it.

If you fail to meet
these conditions,

Mrs. Hennessey is history.
- I understand.

Now look
at the street behind you.

There's a blue sedan there.

Get the money out of your car.

Put it in the blue
on and take off.

The keys are above the visor.

Did you get all that?

Yeah, I got it, Clint.

The tracking gizmo, I don't know

how to put it on the other car.

Forget it.
Get going.

We've been outsmarted.

Go to the pumping
stations up on the right.

It's about 100 yards on.

You see the telephone?

Yes.

We're getting to close on her.

Pull over.

He's getting out of voice range.

Pull over, damn it.

You made a deal.

Now stick to it.

Hello.

The road takes off

2 1/2 miles from where you are.

Take the road left
for 3.4 miles.

It's the interference
from the power lines.

I don't think it
was an accident.

Put the suitcase in the car.

Get going, Clint.

Hello, hello, can you hear me?

Yeah, Clint, you're coming in.

Where are you?

I'm on my way back, just about

past the oil pumping station.

I found the rusted out hulk as
advertised and put the suitcase

inside of it out of sight.

Did you see anybody?

No, nothing.

I could see for miles.

They probably made
the pick up by now.

You want to check it out?

No.

I can't be sure they
picked up the money yet.

I could be watching to see if
there are any police around.

I'm sorry I let
the two of you get

involved in the first place.

Give it a break, Clint.

Take a seat, please, huh?

Sorry.

Clint, you're driving me crazy.

Go home.

Give one of your
girlfriends a call.

Sir, if it's all
the same to you, I'd...

I'd like to stick it out.

I... I really care what happens.

You did a good job for me today,

possibly even a dangerous
one, and I thank you for that.

But now give yourself a break.

You've earned it.
Go home, please.

OK.

Can I... can I call you
later and see what's...

Yeah.

Your plan isn't
half finished yet.

We don't have time for this.

Yeah.

You know, sometimes I wonder.

About what?

If you did this for me or
because you think your husband

did you wrong.

Oh, darling, we haven't
got time for that either.

OK, let's go.

What about Hector?

He's not badly hurt, is he?

Baby, we're home free.

We're going to be rich.

Just tell me he isn't dead.

He came at me with a chainsaw.

Nothing bad was
supposed to happen.

It wasn't my fault. He
wasn't supposed to be there.

Oh.

You're not blaming
me for Hector, are you?

No.

He wasn't supposed to be there.

It couldn't be helped.

Right.

OK, come on.

Just stand back.

Get back.
Come on.

Come on.

That's it.

Go.

You all don't have to
wait and suffer with me.

That's OK, Mr. Hennessey.

We have nothing to do until
we talk with your wife.

I waited my whole life for her.

And now in a single day, I
may have lost the only thing

in life that really matters.

Yes?

Roger?

Laura, Oh, my, god, where...

Where are you?

I'm OK.

They didn't hurt me.

Where are you?

I... I don't know.

I'm out on Highway 31 someplace.

They dumped me here
about an hour ago,

and I found a highway patrolman.

Stay right there.

I'll... I'll come and get you.

No, darling, if they can
get me home a lot faster,

I just want to come home.

All right, I'll be here.

I'll be right here.

And you tell those
guys I want to hear

the sirens when you get here.

She's all right.

She's coming home.

I think maybe you... you not
question her tonight, not even

be here when she gets here.

Tomorrow, maybe?

With the provision that we
get to talk to her first thing

tomorrow morning.

Absolutely.

Thank you.

Goodnight.

- Thank you.
- Goodnight.

Goodnight.

She's coming home.

You're not eating.

, Obviously something
is eating you.

Talk to me.

Kidnappers are very smart,
didn't take any chances.

Everything they did timed out
just right, except they made

one very stupid mistake.

Yeah, they killed
Hector Sandoval.

They considered everything else.

Why not that?

I don't know.

I was thinking
about that myself.

Why didn't they just snatch
her on the gardener's day off?

Well, we're going to
have to figure that out.

That's why they pay
us the big bucks.

Eat, you're not eating.

- I'm not hungry.
- Eat.

You're losing weight.

I don't want to eat.

Your clothes are hanging.

Eat.

Mrs. Sandoval.

I'm with the police.

May I speak with
you a little later

on outside with my partner.

Please, you don't have to wait.

We could talk here.

I don't want to intrude.

You do not intrude.

I can help you.

Yes, I need to ask you some
questions about your husband.

Please sit down.

Mrs. Sandoval,
did your husband

have a regular work schedule?

Yes.

And what days did he have off?

Sunday.

And one day.

But, uh, today is Monday,
and he did work today.

Why was that?

Tomorrow is my birthday.

He wanted to be with
me on my birthday.

There's just one more question,

did your husband call Mrs.
Hennessey to tell her that he'd

be coming to work today?

No.

He knew what work he had to do.

He don't need to call.

La Senora Hennesseay,
is she safe?

Yeah, she's home.

She's safe.

She's well.

Hector would be glad.

He like her.

Thank you.

Could we please speak
to your wife alone?

No, not alone.

You're not going to put her
through anything unless I'm

there to keep an eye on you.

That means my lawyer or me.

You make the pick.

Roger, darling, it's OK.

I want to help them.

Let's just get it over with.

Thank you.

Can you tell us anything
at all about the kidnapper?

He was large, kind of heavy.

I never really got a
chance to see his face.

But he spoke with kind
of a gravelly voice.

He kept me in a room
the entire time.

And, uh, whenever he'd take
me out to use the bathroom

or to feed me, he made me put on
one of those, um, sleep masks,

I guess it was.

Were there any
distinctive sounds

that you heard something
that might help

us decipher where you were?

Just cars.

Uh, there was a lot of cars.

I don't know.

Maybe there was a freeway or
a highway here or something.

I really don't know.

They kept you in one
room, is that correct?

Come on, Detective,
she's already told you

she was locked up in one room.

Mr. Hennessy, this is a
homicide investigation, which

your wife is a key witness.

Shut up.

Roger, darling, it's OK.

Let me do this, OK?
Please, darling.

At the end of the
day, he took me out.

And he blindfolded me,
and he put me in his car,

and we drove for, I guess
it was about an hour.

Then he stopped,
and he untied me,

and he shoved me out
of the car, and, uh, he

told me not to take off the
blindfold for two minutes.

And, uh, I didn't.

When I finally did, he was gone.

And I started walking.

All right.

All right, that's it.

Now she has told
you what she can.

Was Hector Sandoval
supposed to be here yesterday?

No, it was his day off.

But he was here, so
you didn't expect him?

No.

I wondered about that too.

I asked Gail, my secretary,
and she didn't know anything.

He just showed up.

They didn't call or anything.

This must be Clint's
footprints here.

This must be the kidnapper's.

I'm going to go
check out the car.

Yeah.

Here you go.

Keep the change.

Thanks a lot.

Have a good day.

You too.

Yeah?

Clint, it's me, Gail.

How do you do?

All right, how about you?

Great.

Gee, Clint, I'd like to be
in there and not out here.

Oh, yeah, yeah,
sure, come on in.

Place is a little messy.

Oh, can I have one of those?

Oh, I got...

I have some wine in the fridge.

No, no, I like beer.

That never was just a
man's drink, you know?

Right.

So, uh, what's up?

Well, Clint, uh, you and
Laura really pulled it off.

Thank you.

What are you talking about?

Oh, come on, Clint, you know me.

I'm the girl who
never misses anything

that goes on at that house.

You know, Laura told
me about the contract

that Mr. Hennessey had her sign.

And that helped me
to figure it out.

You and Laura staged that whole
beautiful $4 million caper.

And I'm impressed.

Yeah, I'm really very impressed.

Don't tell me, you slept great,

and now you're raring to go.

Nope, I had two hours of sleep.

And, yes, I am raring to go.

Well, I didn't
sleep well at all.

So we have to
maintain a low volume.

Right around 3:00 AM last
night, I, uh, had one of those,

what you may call it... uh...

I don't know.

What do you call it?
- Inside.

Inside.

I think was an inside job.

I was thinking the same thing.

Right.

A real professional
kidnapper would not

have let Laura Hennessey live.

He would've killed
her because she was

a witness to Hector's murder.

You think Laura
Hennessey was in on it?

Ah, there's a good chance of it.

I think I'm starting to wake up.

You know his wife's back,
so it can't be Hennessey.

Maybe it's Clint.

Perhaps.

But let's start with Gail.

Why Gail?

Well, you know the
electronically-distorted

voice we recorded.

Yeah.

Sounds like a woman to me.

OK.

Hi, Clint, mind if we come in.

Who is it, Clint?

It's those police detectives.

What do you want?

We stopped by Gail
Morton's apartment.

She wasn't there.

We figured she might
be here, is that right?

What's going on?

Why are you suddenly
interested in Gail?

Mr. Hennessy, is she here?

I think maybe
you better come in.

Still no answer and
none of her friends

have heard from her.

Gail seems to be missing.

She was supposed to be here
at 8 o'clock this morning.

Why are you looking for her?

We think the kidnapping
was an inside job.

Well, I told my wife that.

On Monday, I gave up $4
million worth of ransom money,

and on Tuesday, her social
secretary disappears, eh?

Roger, I just
can't believe that.

Gail wasn't just my
social secretary.

She was also my best friend.

I think that something's
happened to her.

Does she have any family,

a husband, any children?

No, she was divorced, and
they never had any kids.

Do you have a photograph of her?

Yes.

Why?

Well, I want to
circulate the photograph,

get it out to the press.

Tell me, when's
the last time you saw her.

Ah, well, she left
last about 6:00.

And she seemed
perfectly fine to me.

And what about you?

Well, she was gone
by the time Clint

and I got home from the
office last night at 6:15.

When I saw her
last, she seemed OK.

She was very cheerful.

Well, if we have
that photograph,

we'll be on our way.

Yes.

What do you mean the
guy doesn't have a record?

He drives a car for a
living, for crying out loud.

Yeah, I know.

Yeah.
Thanks.

I got some bad news,
and I got some so-so news.

The bad news is
Judge Ternell will

not give us a search warrant
on Clint and sufficient cause.

And you know if Ternell won't
give us one, nobody will.

It's going to be
one of those days.

I sense it.

Yeah, the so-so
news is Gail's picture

made the front of the paper.

Lock me up.

This is a matter of principle.
I will never bend.

I will never relent.
Go ahead.

Lock me up.
Lock me up.

Go ahead.

We'd rather have you
bend, Mr. Kirschbaum.

Maybe just a little?

Never.

There is a lesson
there somewhere, Hunter.

Clint, where's Gail?

Baby...

You know, don't you?

Where is she?

She had it all figured out.

Oh, my god.

She came to me last night
with all these demands.

Oh, oh, well, what
did you do to her?

Hey, your best friend was
about to throw us to the wolves

if I didn't give her
a third of the money.

I had no choice.

Clint, you had a choice,
and you made the wrong one,

didn't you?

Baby, you got to take it easy.

Didn't you?

Take it easy.

When we started
talking about this,

nobody was supposed to get hurt.

I... Roger would lose
me and $4 million

he wasn't going to
miss anyway, and he'd

get over it soon enough,
and now two people are dead.

Wait a minute.

You're blaming me
for Hector again?

I don't know, maybe not very
Hector, but Gail, that never

should have happened.

Laura, I was protecting
you, not just me.

I was protecting the both of us.

Hey, you know I wanted it to
go just the way we planned it,

don't you?

Yes, we started this together.

We'll finish it together.

I got that hostage hid
away nice and cozy so you

tell him if he doesn't meet my
demands, she's going to die.

Mr. Kirschbaum, you
can't kill a Ferrari.

Oh, no?

Mortal injury.

I can cause mortal injury.

So you tell that
scum of a landlord

I want my security deposit back,
all $200 of it, or she dies.

I'm calling
the probation officer.

- Go ahead.
- You think I won't?

No, I don't think you will.

Excuse me, I'm Mrs. Mikelski.

A fellow back there told me
you're interested looking

for this missing woman.

Yes, ma'am, we sure are.

Yeah, well being
a concerned citizen,

I thought you ought to
know, I seen her last night.

Are you sure?

Where?

Paying her cab
fare, and then she

went into the apartment building
right next door to mine.

I saw her clear as day.

What's the address of that
building next to you, ma'am?

Oh, 4284 Edgemont
Drive, the Granville Arms.

Thank you very much.

You've been a big help.

Yeah, well, like
I say, you know,

being a concerned citizen, I...

Uh... any reward?

No.

Hi, Clint.

What are you guys doing
in this neck of the woods?

Well, we were just running
around the neighborhood,

thought we'd drop by and
acquaint you with your rights.

Come again?

You have the right
to remain silent.

What is this, a joke?

If you give up the right to
remain silent, anything you say

can and will be used against
you in a court of law.

Hey, I'm in no
mood for gags, OK?

You said you saw Gail yesterday.

I believe the word you used
was, she was looking cheerful.

Well, you lied to us, Clint.

That wasn't the last
time you saw her.

You saw her here last
night in your apartment.

And we had a
feeling when she left,

she wasn't feeling too cheerful.

The lady wasn't here.

Last night, or ever,
we don't socialize.

You guys are playing games.

You're playing with my lawyer,
which you forgot to mention.

You're under arrest.

Oh, you want to fight?

I hope you do.

It's not a good idea.

You guys have no
right to arrest me.

Yeah, yeah.

No right.

I happen to know Michael Snow.

He's the best criminal
lawyer in Los Angeles.

And he's going to
have me out so fast

you won't know what hit you.

And then he's going
to file false arrest

charges on both of you.

L 56.

Carlos is
calling you from the morgue,

wants to be patched through.

Patch him through.

Hunter, are you there?

I'm here.

Somebody stole my tuba,

and I want some fast action.

Check with one your stiffs.

What do you got, Carlos?

A body, female,

got pulled out of Santa Monica
Bay about an hour ago, no ID,

but the age and
physical characteristics

fit the description of the
woman you were asking about.

Want to give her a look?

As soon as I drop off
a prisoner and McCall

at the precinct, I'll stop by.

Thank you.

What do you think,
Clint, any comments?

Yeah, yeah, but
there's a lady present.

Ah, the mysteries
of the briny deep,

so many disparate denizens,
fish, plankton, seaweed,

an occasional corpse
with a pair of 60-pound

dumbbells tied to the ankles.

Is this your lady?

Sure is.

What was the cause of death?

Strangulation.

Where did they find her?

This guy lost a
brand new 380 Kasuki

outboard in 60 feet of water.

So he got a couple of scuba
divers to help him find it.

They never found the
outboard, but I love

irony, Hunter, all artists do.

I guess it's why I work here.

You, on the other hand,
Hunter, do not care for irony.

Sergeant McCall, please.

Hi, whatever you do, do
not let them release Clint.

When?

OK, look, I should be
there in about 10 minutes.

Meet me out back.

Strange man.

Laura?

Laura?

- What's wrong?
- Get packed.

We gotta get out of here.

They found Gail's body.

The cops are going to
be here any second.

We gotta get out of here now.

Come on.

What's the matter with you?

Didn't you hear what I said?

There's $4 million
waiting for us out there.

We're got to get out
of the country now.

Take it and go.

Go before they get here.

What are you talking
about, take it and go?

You said that they're
going to be here any second.

The plan goes wrong,
and you want out?

No, no.

That's not it at all.

I'll meet you wherever you
say, whenever you want.

No, you won't.

No, you're going to go
spill it to the cops, right?

No, how could I do that?

I do that, I go to prison too.
You know that.

You're going to tell them
it was just Gail and me.

That's what you
got planned, right?

You got to keep
playing the victim.

No, darling, I love you.

You know I love you.

I wouldn't do that to you.

Yeah, yeah you loved me.

You loved me once, but you
couldn't take the heat,

could you?

All good things must end?

No, you don't love me.

You don't love me
any more, do you?

Oh, no!

No!

She's alive.

I'm going to check the house.

This is Sergeant McCall.

Send an ambulance code 3 to
1744 O'Claire on the Hills,

and dispatch a couple of
black and whites, code 3.

Yeah?

McCall's calling from her unit.

We patched her through.
- Go ahead.

Captain, we just left
the Hennessey house.

Mrs. Hennessey may
be the latest victim.

She, uh, is alive,
but just barely.

We left as soon as the
ambulance got there.

You left the scene
of a possible homicide?

Yeah, it's called
hot pursuit, Captain.

We think we know
where the killer is.

His name is Clint Langer,
and if we're right,

he's not going to be
there too much longer.

Hunter, you looked in
that wrecked-out car.

There was nothing there.

There's no money.

He's not going to leave
the money laying around.

He buried it.

Freeze, Clint.

Put your hands where
I can see them.

Clint, you touch that
gun, I'm going to kill you.

Now very slowly, put
it on the floorboard.

Slow.

Thattaboy.

Put your hands up
where I can see him.

Get out of the car.
Come on.

Turn around and
put your hands up.

Watch him for me.

Spread them out.

Now where's the money?

In the trunk.

Hello.

ANNOUNCER: Dr. Bartells,

212, please Dr. Bartells, 212.

Respiratory therapy
to the emergency room.

I owe you, both
of you, more than

I'll ever be able to repay.

Doc says that Laura's
going to pull through

very nicely because
she was brought

here so quickly after the fall.

I'm also thanking you
for her because I'm not

going to let you speak to her.

From now on, any
talking you have to do,

you're going to have
to do to our lawyer.

You see, I am not going to let
Laura spend one second behind

bars if there's anything that
I or my money can do about it.

Your wife is an
accessory to murder

before and after the fact.

Oh, she didn't kill anybody.

We'll let the courts
decide that, won't we?

She's going to testify against
Clint because those killings

blew her mind.

She was damaged more
emotionally than she

was physically
because people were

killed who she cared about.

She blames herself.

You think I'm a crazy
old man, don't you?

You know whose fault
this really was?

It was mine.

Are you serious?

Laura and I were
together for six years

before we got married.

And she loved me as much as
any man has ever been loved.

And I knew that for sure.

So I asked her to marry me.

And I made the biggest
mistake I made in my life.

On the advice of counsel, I
asked her to sign a contract,

a prenuptial agreement.

If she left me, if she
divorced me, she got nothing.

The day she signed
that contract is

the day she stopped loving me.

So now do you understand
why you're not going to get

any help from me against her?

I just showed her the
contract that she signed,

and then I tore it
up, and dropped it

in a wastepaper basket.

When I left that room
just now, she was laughing

and crying at the same time.

That's the longest
speech I think

I've ever made in my life.

ANNOUNCER: Dr. Mahler,

248, please, Dr. Mahler, 248.

Thanks again.
