Bodyguard! You're supposed to protect my body.

So would you mind seeing if it's safe, Stupid?

Carol!

Ah, you gotta be kidding.

Shoot me, coward. Go on, shoot.

Come on, say it, you're kidding.

'I haven't got the guts, Robbie!" That's what you say!

Was it the old man? Is he
getting tired of the way I run things?

who paid you to hit me?

Well, I'll be damned.

You...put him up to it!

Go on, get out of here. And take that with you.

No, wait...

OK, get out of here, And get rid of the gun.

I'll check that out, sergeant. OK, Saperstein.

Lieutenant, he must've got
in through that busted window.

Neighbours? So far they're all asleep.

Mm—hm. Victim's wife in the house?

Victim? You know who he was. What kind of..

Victim's wife in the house?

Yeah. Upstairs. who's with her?

Crocker. He's with her now. You -
No, don't bother. Keep me posted.

Lieutenant! This is a very heavy thing we have here.

So? You're always complaining I treat you like kids,

I worry too much, I'm breathing down your necks.

Well, I've stopped breathing down your necks, OK? OK.

Now Papa's going to bed.

Can we just go over this one more time?

I was sleeping. I'd taken a pill.

And, uh, something woke
me, the sound of breaking glass.

I thought I was dreaming. At about what time was that?

Ah, I don't know. I try to
go to sleep before midnight.

I guess I did.

Anyway, I heard the shot,

and I ran downstairs, and he
came at me, and I screamed.

Were there lights on? It was dark.

What did he do when he saw
you? He, uh...he turned around,

I screamed, and then he ran.

And you didn't see his face? Please stop! I told you!

It was dark! I was frightened!
I don't know what I saw!

What are you, grilling me?

Uh, Mrs Austin, I don't know you
and I didn't know your husband.

All I'm trying to do is put together
events following the shooting.

Crocker? Radio car picked up
this guy a few blocks away, running.

He doesn't have a weapon,
he doesn't even have a story.

Mrs Austin, I just heard. I...

I'm so sorry.

Would you please tell these guys who I am?

This is Fred Tumy, my... Tumy.
You're his bodyguard? Mm.

Listen, I'm sorry.

I don't know what to say. I...I
swear I dropped Robbie off,

and went out to get the newspapers, like always.

I...well, not like all the time.

We had a lot to drink at the club,

so this time I took a walk, and on the way back,

I see this guy running back
from the house, and I chase him.

A car slides up, he hops in, and they split, fast.

So I come back here, and these cops grab me.

Are you all right?

Do you think we could continue tomorrow?

Sure. Tomorrow morning, at Manhattan South.

we'll just bring you down and
you can look at some photos.

OK? Thank you for your cooperation.

Wait...

Thank you. You You've been very nice.

were these Lights on or off?
we'll check with the duty officer.

Listen, the lieutenant just came and Left?

Like the ship that passed in the night.

Oh...

Like a leaf that was blown away...

.in the fall wind.

What are you lookin' at?

Detective Rizzo, why do I have to go through this?

The department wants photos. I
don't want them. I can't use them.

I could be working on a porno
flick if I didn't have to be here.

Come on. Just let me get it now. OK. You've got one.

Now you're funny. Really.

Am I finished? Just a few more.

Ah, lieutenant?

We didn't find a gun yet. But
don't worry about it. I got it covered.

You see a worried lieutenant of
detectives anywhere, Crocker?

Emergency services tearing up the place.

Well, that's what they get paid for.

Should I stay with her? Look...

...Robbie Austin was a top
echelon hood. You understand?

Means he was close to the old man.

Which means that when Papa,
that old killer shark, gets wind of this,

he'll be into it up to his bony
kneecaps. Keep your back to the wall.

The widow couldn't make any of the IDs.

So what else is new?

I wanted pimento, I got tuna fish.

Got somebody covering the place since it happened.

She spent the night alone,

then a cop came and took her down to Manhattan South.

Stay there a while longer.

See what Fred is up to, just to be safe.

If he's blowing it,

break his legs.

Son of a gun. What is it?

The big brass is getting in on this.

Theo, I was so afraid you wouldn't come.

You know, if you hadn't come just now,

I was going to go over to your office

and shout, 'Theo Kojak! You get out here!”

Hey, look, Carol, I'm sorry he's dead,

but it... He got it easy.

Theo?

What happened to us?

I don't know.

We had a couple of dates, then said goodbye.

No. You walked away.

I didn't want to.

Well, I didn't either. So who did the walking?

Hey, look, ah,

your husband was one of Papa's favourites.

Carol...

I don't want you to go out anywhere, OK?

Papa may think you're a bad
wife, letting your husband get killed.

He'll send some muscle to push
your face in, and that worries me.

Oh, Theo, I'm so relieved
you're on this investigation.

Mm. Well, I won't be on the case.

I've assigned a man. You met
him last night, Robert Crocker.

why, Theo? Why not you? Please, Carol.

It's better for both of us.

Carol...

...before I go, you got nothing to hide?

No! Carol, if things get too heavy...

Theo, I swear! I know. But if they should,

you give me a call, OK?

Could be important.

Yes? We have to talk.

Hello. Ah...

What can I say? Just a minute.

It's Robbie's mother.

Mama, can you hold on for a
second? There's a police officer here.

Theo,

people do change. Life changes them.

He's dead, I'm not.

And you're not.

Goodbye, Carol.

How nice of them all to be so interested in the lady.

I'm relieved to hear she isn't
alone in the hour of her grief.

The police are looking for a killer.

I think we should help them.

Could be the Loomis gang.

Heard some rumble lately.

They always wanted his
territory, that big club he has.

Find out.

There he is! Papa's favourite bookie.

Stop! Stop, please!

All right, hold it.

He ate the evidence, lieutenant.

Benny.

Here you hare havin' a picnic
and you don't invite your friends.

What'd I do?

Oh, what did I do?

MM 3, Movie Mogul, 3rd race, Aqueduct.

Thanks.

I told you.

Get yourself a tailor like Benny,

and you change your image immediately.

Mph...I didn't do nothing!
'Anything', Benny. 'ANYTHING'.

I want you to go see Papa.

You can't. Benny.

It's such a hot afternoon, OK? I
want you go to see Papa, and tell him

his local police are on the job and on the case, OK?

We don't want his soldiers getting in the way.

We got a detective, very sharp, very efficient,

third-grade detective Robert
Crocker. You got that? Now go.

We meet the nicest people this way.

You want us me to tail him? Benny? No.

I want you to tail Crocker.

Crocker? 24 hours, but guys, he doesn't know.

You got it?

And don't whisper to a bird.

Tweet tweet. Not a birdie.

Well, do you want a lift or not?

Fred, you did as good as you could.

I mean, it's not easy lying to cops.

Hello.

Well, I'll...I'll go down and clean the car up,

and be back to take you to the chapel.

Thank you. Bye.

Sit down, please. Thank you.

I didn't want to keep you at the station house.

It's not the best place to talk.

You keep being considerate! For a gangster's moll.

I'm sorry.

You have been nice. Go ahead. I'll try to be civil.

Did your husband have any
enemies? I know he had enemies.

I just thought maybe you'd
help me narrow down the List.

I think his yellow file at police
headquarters knows more than I.

I mean, he did one thing for me,
he kept me ignorant of his affairs.

He said, 'Stay dumb and stay alive.'

When he got home, did he do any drinking?

I...I don't know. I was asleep.

But...he may have had something. He usually does.

Well, we didn't find a glass.

well, I was waiting for the police, I was nervous,

and I may have cleaned off the bar, I think I did.

That's why you didn't find a glass, if he had a drink.

Well, did you put the glasses
away, or did you Leave them out?

Theo said you were sharp.

Hey, look, we're just trying to establish

your husband's movements when he got home.

Are you all right?

My husband was just shot to death. How should I feel?

I'm sorry.

We keep apologising to each other.

I keep saying, thank you for being nice.

Look, I've got some things to do,

so I'll come back in about an hour.

I'll be here. Thank you.

What have you got? I thought I'd talk to Fred Tumy.

Ah. How about the streets?

We covered from Seventh to
First, down to 61st, down to 58th.

Some people heard a high cry, some didn't.

A woman hanging out the building
said the lights were on at 11:00,

Mrs Austin says they were out at 10:00.

Fred Tumy's story abou the newsvendor checks out.

Got anything inside the house?

Well, she said she'd cleaned
the bar after he had a drink.

She got upset talking about him. Lieutenant -

you didn't say you knew her.
Would it make a difference?

I don't know. That's why I didn't tell you.

Crocker? Look, uh,

you got enough to do checking
out the Robbie Austin enemy list.

I'll talk to Fred Tumy.

Uh, Lieutenant, it's my case.
I'm a grown-up detective.

Then you go and see her. You question my suspects.

When do I get my bar mitzvah
scroll? Ah! Very well put, Crocker.

I'll see you later.

Kill my boss? He paid me good money.

Big deal, somebody paid you
more. I mean, you hated him.

And everybody knew how he put you down.

She was in the house. why don't you ask her?

Hah?

The, the killer knocked her over. Go on.

It was pitch black. The curtains
were drawn. She couldn't see a thing.

Well, maybe there was a
light. Maybe there was a light...

Maybe. Was there or wasn't there?

Read me my rights.

Alright. Come here.

I mean, he's dead, right?

There was no gun, so he
didn't kill himself. I didn't do it.

No one could get in or out. So,

she did it.

Or you did it. Or you both did it.

Cos his shadow didn't do it.

But sometimes in cases like this,
Freddy, it doesn't matter who did it,

but who gets to the DA first. You get my meaning?

Uh-uh.

Saperstein, you're gonna
love this. This is a great shot.

Good. I need one. You'll get it.

Just sit there. Just like that, hey!

Come on, Rizzo, why don't you stop, leave us alone?

Lieutenant Kojak? This is
Bellevue. This is a loony bin.

All the citizens want are photos
of their local police at work.

Why can't I just take my pictures and go?

'Because I've lost control completely!

'Of them, of me!’ I'm sorry. Yeah?

Saperstein, want to park it off my desk? Yes, right.

Where's Crocker? Out. What's up?

Austin's lawyer owes me one.

It seems Robbie Austin left
over $3 million after taxes.

There's your possible motive.
And everything goes to Mrs Austin,

and there's no way in the world
we're gonna break that lady down.

The gun. We gotta find the gun.

That's the key.

OK, I'm going to call out now.
The shot, you get out of bed...

You come down the stairs.

Was the hi-fi on or off? On.

OK. What about the lights? You turn the lights on?

I used the switch in the living room.

That's closer. Yeah, but...

Alright. Into the living room.

Now, the assailant came at you where?

Here, before I could reach the light switch.

You're tired.

That's a dumb thing to say.

I'm sorry.

Please will you call me Carol?

I know you're a cop and I'm a...witness to murder,

but maybe if we pretend that we're not,

then it'll all go away.

Carol.

Did Fred Tumy have a key? Yes.

You think he's involved?

Fred was my husband's
chauffeur. I had to tolerate him.

And you guessed it, I still have to tolerate him.

You're right, though. I am
tired. I'm sorry. Excuse me.

Carol?

Is Fred Tumy pressuring you?

I know you're a cop, and
cops have seen and heard it all.

But please don't ask to
hear about this sewer I live in.

Ah. How's it going? Slow.

Now listen. This is the way I'm seeing it.

There's a lady, and she hears a shot in the dark.

She runs downstairs into the
room where he's lying dead, right?

And there's a big fat switch
on the staircase wall upstairs.

Now, when you're scared, you turn
on the lights before you go into a room.

It's a throwback to when you were
a kid. This lady, she Leaves it off.

She's been through a lot, living with that animal.

She still has all his friends hanging all over her.

No wonder she's a little confused.

Crocker.

Um, you hung up on her?

Come on, Lieutenant. She's a suspect.

Uh...see Stavros before you
left? in the car, eating pizza.

Good. That means the lady's tucked away for the night.

Now you keep at her, OK? Yes.

Papa says come along. No noise, no fuss.

Just get in the car.

Papa, you've no idea.

I mean, you can't possibly know what it's been Like.

The police round all the time, asking questions,

about Robbie's business Life, his personal life.

Every time I open the door,
there's one of them on the steps.

And there's Fred, walking around in a daze.

I mean, he just feels sick
because he feels he's let you down.

And all the while, I knew I should be...

...going to see you.

You know, to be with you and
sit with you, tell you what I know.

Oh, I, I don't know...

I mean, it just doesn't make any difference, you know?

Robbie had so many enemies!

What does it matter?

He's gone.

He was a lot of different
things, but he was my husband.

You got to admit, of all the
plays you go to on Broadway,

you never saw a better performance.

What do you know?

Did you kill him?

Kill h...

Papa, what is he saying?

I mean, he was my husband.

I didn't kill him. He was my husband, whatever he was.

He asked you a question.

We've got company.

Take her in there.

They all came out, got in the car and came over here.

Well, they know we're here by
now. Cover the back in case, OK.

Stay here.

It's good to see you, Theo. Sit down.

Have some wine. Where is she?

Theo, Robert Austin was an associate.

Carol Austin, Papa?

Theo, I have young Turks all around,

waiting for me to show a sign of weakness.

Like that person. Look at his eyes. Real nice, Papa.

You tell Bright Eyes to open that
door, or I'll break it with his nose.

You all right?

We just talked. Mm-hm?

Go downstairs and wait for me.

Theo,

why should there be bitterness
between old friends like us?

Mm!

You see, Papa, I'm a cop.

And you're a killer. An old one.

You're getting tired.

Your teeth are falling out, your nails are dull,

and in that graveyard, you got
more victims than I can count.

You want me to forget that?

We want Robbie's killer.

Good. We have something in common.

Ciao.

You know, nobody comes to a
dump like this of their own free will.

So I was brought. why the hell didn't you say so?

What do you want me to say? You mind if I talk to her?

Lieutenant, yeah. Just talk to her.

I'm sorry.

I don't want to start anything
between you and Crocker.

Don't let me. Don't do it, not for me.

Yeah, Carol.

Now, look.

The reason I yelled at you
like that in front of Crocker.

I don't want him to think I'm on
your side, the way I act toward you.

You know how the word gets around. OK?

What is it? Fred.

I got word from my stoolie.

He picked up a .32 calibre throw down piece.

If we can find that gun, we got him.

Good.

You take her home.

I'll catch a ride with Stavros.

Wait a minute.

I don't want to go back just yet.

Alright, get in the car.

why don't you tell me all that happened that night,

so I can get a clear head?

Well, I've gone over it with you.
If you suspect me, just arrest me.

Ha! All we have to do is arrest you

on anything that Looks like suspicion,

and Papa won't wait for the results of the grand jury.

Listen, I can take care of
myself. I do that very well.

What are you so worried about? Because I care!

And I shouldn't have said that.
But people do that, don't they?

I do it all the time.

Crazy, that's what I am.

Look, we're not friends. We're not lovers.

You're a suspect, and I'm a cop.

Would you take me for a drink?

OK.

Ah, Stavros! Hold it right
there. Let me get this picture.

You want my picture? Yeah. Just stand right here.

That's very nice. Thank you. Right, wait a minute.

Oh, great. Just a second.

Very funny.

Very funny. You should be a comedian.

Lieutenant, I just checked with Carol Austin's doctor.

He never prescribed sleeping
pills, because she's allergic to barbs.

We got to find the gun.

There is one. I know it. Yes, sir.

Well, you're shaving. That's something.

I was beginning to think YOU
were the victim, not Robbie Austin.

I walked out of that scene a long time ago,

and I never looked back, and you know it.

I know it. I saw the way you didn't look back,

and the way she didn't look back
and look at you when she was here.

I saw it.

What are you doing here? I told you,

you're not supposed to come
round till after everything's settled.

What's wrong?

I want to be some place else.

I need money. A lot of it, in a hurry.

You must be crazy! You know how
many weeks we talked about this!

You knew we were gonna have to wait! Yeah, I know.

I know how we planned it.

But...all those cops around, and Papa pushing...

What if you get picked up and grab a plea?

Oh, please. No no no!

Go to Papa. Cry on him.

Tell him you want 50 grand. It's for a sick aunt.

507

The deal was 10 and a split of the estate.

I know.

It's called blackmail. No.

It's called protection. From you, doll.

I saw how you did it. Cold.

Too cold for me to be around and stay alive.

You're out of your mind.

How come you didn't say that when I
found Robbie was gonna dump you?

If it wasn't for me, you'd be in the river.

Out! Get out of here!

OK. Sure.

So, ah, I'll call Papa.

You call Papa, and I'll call the cops.

Oh, be sure to tell your cop friends

that I forgot to throw the gun in the river.

That's right. I still have it.

And you can also tell 'em I
forgot to wipe your prints off it.

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for laughing, but...

.we were so much closer when Robbie was alive.

Without you, I wouldn't be alive.

Uh...You know, I've been thinking.

I...I couldn't kill Robbie for money. Mm.

But I could kill to save my life.

Get the money.

Yes?

Hey. Where've you been all day?

Here,

'Why haven't you picked up the phone?

I don't want to go into that right now.

Is something wrong? Nothing.

Well, I'm coming over. Don't.

You OK?

Still leaning on the lady? Still leaning.

It's good. She might drop something.

You know, I got a follow-up on
the medical examiner's report.

It seems that Robbie Austin
had time to take a couple of shots

just before the killer hit him.

A tiny speck of cork was found in his stomach,

which means the following:

that either the killer was already there,

or Robbie Austin let 'em in. How
come she didn't hear anything?

Austin worked her over earlier that night.

She took a sedative.

I called the doctor. No sedative.

You called, you learned. Hey, Look.

Once and for all, just take me
off the case or stay the hell away.

Carol?

what did you leave the door open for?

What does it matter?

Ah...what was he doing here?

Hey, come over here. Answer me.

You're hurting me.

You told me you threw him out.

Oh, he comes with a franchise.

You marry Robbie, you marry Fred.

Hey. Tell me what he wanted.

Me. He wanted me.

He's always wanted me. And
there's nothing I can do about it.

Bobby!

Bobby, wait. Please.

Stay out of it.

Fred Tumy didn't work for Robbie. He worked for Papa.

He talks to them, they listen, they believe him.

He's in trouble right now. His man got killed.

If you threaten him, he'll point
at me, and they'll believe him.

So... So I give him a Little
money. So I'm nice to him.

I'm going to have a talk with him.

Bobby?

Bobby, be careful.

Hello? 'Can you talk?

No.

Can you call me as soon as you get out of there?

What was that all about?

I think she's scared.

OK. So one more time, just to be sure.

I told you. It was her.

I knew she had it in her mind to do it,

but she...she'd got a gun. Who'd have figured

she'd go through killing just to keep living good?

Any other gangs involved?

I keep telling you, I got
the gun with the prints on it.

So. She did it,

and then you decided you'd
go into business all by yourself.

You were gonna put the
squeeze on her without telling us.

Aw. That's terrible.

Haven't you heard she's a widow?

Fred... I'm gonna give you a unique opportunity.

Now, most guys don't get a chance like this.

Waste her.

With cops all around?

You got yourself into it. You get yourself out of it.

Do it, Fred.

You listen to me! You go near her just one more time,

and I'll break you in half with my own hands.

You understand?

Now, you guys want to talk to me?

Relax.

Get your hands off me. Off.

Your breath stinks.

Hey! I'll keep him away!

You can have her all to yourself!

Hello.

Your boyfriend made his point.

I don't know what you're talking about.

'Where can we meet?' Doesn't matter.

You got the money?

I will. Robbie kept some in the house.

I was going to live on it. I'll see what there is.

Pier 86, in the morning. Eight o'clock.

I don't want to go near your house any more.

Frank, I had Crocker covered.
What do you want me to tell you?

He'll be OK. OK?

Then why do I have to take a
call from some wise mouth hood,

preaching to me about his rights as a citizen?

Crocker's YOUR detective. You're in charge.

So how come he busts into a syndicate office,

and threatens Robbie Austin's bodyguard

simply because the man visited
the home of his former employer?

Come on!

He just came in.

Crocker? Yeah.

Come here.

What'd you do, sleep in the park last night?

Shaking a tail till I found out they were cops.

I thought I was handling this
case. Bobby, I did it to protect you.

Ah, ha. Come on. I got work to do.

Wait a minute.

What happened to you Last
night? I mean, roughhousing hoods?

He went after her, so I went after him.

You went after him?

He works there! Is there an echo in here?

Hey, Bobby, listen.

I put you on a case I knew
was trouble from the start, OK?

But I did it for a reason. I wanted
her to believe I wasn't on the case,

because I wanted to split her from her partner.

OK?

The Light switch was on. Well,
what the hell does that mean?

The switch at the bottom of the stairs was on.

I was leaving. She was upset, wasn't thinking.

She came down the stairs after me

and turned the lights on, like you
said. It was an automatic reaction.

When she got downstairs,

she had to see the killer.

Saperstein's on Carol Austin.
She just left her house, driving west.

They're at pier 86, the work area.

'I'm watching her.'

'Don't leave. Cover her.'

I figured you're bring your cop.

You're good at getting guys to do things.

He couldn't make it.

You looked the same...

...when you couldn't kill Robbie.

Papa wanted you to kill me, didn't he?

I can do this one.

I have to.

Carol? Theo!

This the gun?

Her prints are on it.

Theo, forget the gun.

I'm coming into $3 million.

We could do so much.

You know, in a way I admire her.

A little kid, out of the sewers by her fingernails.

No father, a lush for a mother.

why did you walk away from her? Aha!

I remember seeing a picture once,

about this guy who came
out of the streets, made it big.

When he was a kid, he used to have holes in his soles.

So now he's got 200 pairs of shoes, he's rich,

but he'd still cut a guy's heart
out for a pair of shoes. That's why.

Pleased to see you let Crocker handle it.

Oh? You noticed, huh?
