Fashion model? - You beth. Is my

Hey, you were
really beautiful then.

What do you mean, then?
- I'm sorry, I didn't mean it that way.

I don't like cracks like that.

Okay.

From it comes like you before.

Think you're gonna saw the lake?
- Look sis, I said I was sorry.

Stop. Everybody's looking at you.
- Sure as hell they look at me.

Thank you.

I keep that one where it is

I won't you to walk to the

All right, I get in.

We're gonna play this

Cool as a breeze.

I was going someplace,

No.

Then why the pickup?
You the boss here?

Yeah. Joe White Eagle.

Lieutenant Las Vegas police. - These
characters act like I'm a secret weapon.

I don't like being pushed around.

Why letting me see your papers

Way the cufs?

Papers, please.
- I'm not going any.

Ben.

Thanks.

Separated last week.

Silver star, Bronze
star with a cluster.

Very good record.
- ESCO there were this. (?)

You haul in everybody to
pass it through his lousy tounge? (?)

I'm a very good
likeness is it.

And I was a marine myself.

This reminds me of you only
they say this one's a lot tougher. (?)

Way a pinch, lieutenant?

Great branch the marines.

Oh, you're not pinched James.
I thought you could help us.

You have a funny
way of asking for help.

Mind to answering a few questions?
- Let's get it over with, I'm in a hurry.

Where were you at 3:00 this
morning? - In Vegas with a friend.

We found your friend.

Why did you kill
her? - Huh.

Hey I didn't kill her,
I didn't even know.

Bartender and
15 witnesses say you did.

So I walk into bar and
sit the stool next to her.

You picked her up
your drank with her.

You made a pash she got mad.
- I didn't make a pash, she was loaded.

I shut her up.
- You shut her up all right,

with a stripe
around her throat.

You're not gonna put
a murder rap on me.

I didn't kill her and I
can prove it. - How?

I already told you.

I was in Vegas last
night with a friend.

Who? - Paul Barth�lemy
captain, we had a date in town.

Why? - She's
a buddy, that's why.

We were together from
midnight till 6:00 this morning.

Where?
- The Sunset hotel.

Why don't you check it.

Ben.

I got a problem. He
was helping me with.

You've got a problem, all right.

45, service automatic,
government property...

loaded.
- It's a souvenir.

So, all right I'll pay the fine.

So the shirts got bloodstains on it. I
fell on the bushes getting off the truck.

One khaki service shirt,

fifth and six buttons missing.
- Lieutenant, Sunset hotel.

Yes. Oh yes.
Bartlett. - Paul C.

Paul C. Bartlett. Captain.

US army captain.

Yes... yes, thank you.

Satisfied?

Both sleeves torn...
blood on left sleeve...

What about the call?

You should have burned the shirt.

What about captain Bartlett?- There's
nobody by that name registered last night.

Well of course,
why didn't I think of it.

He's not using his own name.
He's on some security thing, classified.

What name was he using?

I don't know.

Where can we reach?
- I can't reach him right now.

I'm gonna meet him
before 9:00 in the morning.

Why don't you stop lying.

You didn't know the girl, a
lie, you didn't fight with her, a lie.

You tore your shirt
on the bushes a lie.

You spent the night
with a buddy a lie.

It's the truth, I did.
- And why did we find this

bracelet in her
bedroom under her body?

Yeah, it's yours.

Coffin.
- Now just a minute.

Put the hands against the wall.

You to.

Get those feet out.

First guy that moves
gets a gun full of let.

No dead heroes, Ben.

Hold it Ben, not yet.

All right!

Of all a fool look. - Do you think we
could have found the trouble by now?

Maybe I should just a
cobbler. - Good, do it.

I don't know which
one of these gadgets it is.

Susan, we've got
to get this car started.

I'm sorry Mrs. Cummings, but I
don't know anything about these things.

Maybe we ship them
a ride back to LA State.

I told you before we're not going
back to Las Vegas. We hadn't the time.

Tyger!
Tyger, stop it.

Tyger?

Turn on the charm,
make him help us.

Don't try to get away, or I'll shoot.

You know anything about loaders,
we've been here for hours.

What's the matter?
- Nothing.

Stick Greece.
- I knew it looks good.

I'm gonna take it off anyway.

How about it take
a look at the engine?

Say, did you people see a police car
go by here fast? - No officer, we haven't.

How long have you been
here? - About two hours.

We'd still be stuck here if there's...
- Somebody step on the starter.

Well, we thought you
might be moving. - Okay, thanks.

They better get
a leash on that dog.

Shall I start the car now?
- Just a second.

The offices right mr. Cummings. We
should have Tyger on the leash. Do you have it?

Well no, I thought you did.

Okay, now start it up.

Susan I'm sure he's
gonna ask us for a ride.

I hope. - Don't
think it's a good idea.

That should do it.

Where you want me? Front or back?
- You've been very kind, but we...

What is proud you too much?

And we're very grateful to what
you've done but you see we...

Tyger!

Tyger! Tyger!

Let me take care of them.

We're on our way to Apple
Valley to take pictures of the hotel.

Oh. You're a professional photographer?

No, no, not me, mrs.
Cummings. I'm just her model.

I mean, like in Vogue and Hoppers?
- All the tops Lex.

It wouldn't have happened if
Tigar would been on his leash.

I can't imagine what happened to him.
- Don't talk about it, it's too late now.

But, I keep thinking
maybe I lost it somewhere.

Was I the last one...
no... now

You took him walking. - I don't
want to hear any more about it.

I asked you to stop it,
so stop it. I'm sorry Susan.

That's all we find on it.

That's all we need.

Dog tags, ribbon, feed,
more clouds. - You'll arrest the big. (?)

Ben, get the snap
out on the wires

and make sure it gets
out to the paper. - All right.

Do you think
he made the state line?

He didn't get these
for stubbing his toe.

Better call the border
stations anyway. - Right.

Unit 14 F3 to control one.

I'll break it up then we've
got everything we need. - Check.

Go ahead, 14 F3.

White Eagle. I got the
serial number on James Henry.

8-9-1-4-6-3.
- 8-9-1-4-6-3.

Right. Put it out on a
teletype to the Navy Department.

I'll buy this car
back to town.

You better call your wife
when you get home. - What's up?

Trip to California.

Teletype Barstow tell them we're
on a hot pursuit, might need their help.

Why don't we stop
somewhere and get a bite to eat.

We didn't even get any
breakfast we left so early.

Sit anywhere folks.

Service is quicker at
the counter. - We'll sit there.

So hungry I could eat a horse.

So am I.

She must be pretty
upset about the dog.

Belly part of it, she
lost your husband last year.

Circumstances were rather
shocking. - What'll it be folks?

Hi boys.
- Hallo, Sally.

Hey, why the work clothes
I thought you were both off.

We're all four rockers to
be out to eat like this, right Harry? (?)

You know they caught us in
from a fishing trip up at me. - Ha, ha.

Just to keep tabs on you baby.

Ha, ha, if you be a couple
of smart cups, you can do that.

Sign yet? - Hamburgers, three.
- Maybe I don't want to have it.

Hey fella. You don't
want a hamburger neither.

Way not?
- Heartburn.

What do you mean heartburn?

Might 100 hamburgers two years
ago. Never been the same since.

He wouldn't know a
good burger but bit him.

It's not he's just peed
because I called him back to work.

Well, would you be out chasing some
character just hundred and twenty degrees heat?

Surge you're right. (?)

I wish I know who
it was I'd warn him.

This boy don't warn Sally.
All he can understand is a gun.

May we have the hamburgers, please?
- Okay. Three hamburgers on another planet. (?)

Mrs. Cummings, your hamburger.

Worried about.
- Maybe we better go.

I'm starved.

Could you wrap those hamburgers
miss? We need them on the road.

Okay, mister.

What are you guys gonna have?

I make a burger's, hurried up with you
we gotta check with the watch commander.

So just why did they
call you guys back from leave.

They got a one out. Some guy
murdered the dame up in Vegas and escaped.

Heading this way?

No. The only sure way
he's headed is to the morgue.

Don't let that be a lesson to you.
- You're gonna teach me a lesson?

Just don't be picking up any
hitchhikers on your day off, you understand?

And what this dame didn't
got a strap around her neck.

Maybe I'd better go and
see if Mrs. Cummings is alright.

How do you feeling?
- Oh I'm all right.

Sorry I'd have been such a nuisance.
- I want to talk to you alone.

Anything wrong? - The police are
looking for someone from Las Vegas.

They are?
- Someone strangled a woman.

With a strap.

They said it was a hitchhiker.

Jim's a hitchhiker. Why
don't we leave him here?

What about his bag?
- I'll take it to him.

Keep the change.
- Hey, fella!

I want to talk
to you for a minute.

What about? - Harry and I've been playing
at Colonel white stores not to scare the ladies.

This is pretty serious.

I wouldn't think I've been a hit checker
said whatever you spacely fits a marine.

I'll watch it.
- And driving long? - Chicago.

Chicago. Hey Harry.
He's from Chicago.

You should have brought Sally
some that good Eastern beef.

I don't know what to tell.
- For heavens sake Susan,

he'll be out in a minute, this
is no time to get sentimental.

It's not that. I just...
- He'll find it here. Put it down.

Get in a car. Quick.

Looking for this?

CALIFORNIA STATE
QUARANTINE
INSPECTION STATION

I've told you this
was my sister's car.

Open the back end.
- Look all you gotta do is call.

We will. - Open the
back end will you, please?

Great.

Any fruits plants
or seeds? - No.

Would you mind putting that on
the rack and open the trunk for me?

Your car?
- Huh, Mrs. Cummings.

We'll have to check the
certificate of ownership ma'am.

Would you mind taking it in
the office? - Of course not officer.

I've never had to show the
certificate of ownership before.

It's the strat killer,
Mrs. Cummings. - I'd almost forgot.

What's all this marine
stuff doing in here?

I'll take it from
here. - Right.

What are you doing
with a Marine uniform?

I am a Marine. The general
gets awful mad when I don't wear.

What are you doing in civvies then?
- When I'm off-duty he don't mind.

Where'd you spend last night?
- What is this manga, quiz program?

Answer the question.
- In Vegas with a lady friend,

and I got an empty
wallet to prove it.

Your lady friend alive when you left her?
- She wasn't even alive when I was with it.

Hey Steve! Vegas
police on the phone.

Better come along.
- Now, wait a minute Mac.

I'm due back at Pendleton the generals
gonna be awful sore if I don't show up.

Come on.

This is okay. Step away.

Yeah. I'll be right you.

Yeah, we're checking on the marine
now. - Tell him I got to get back to town.

What he looks like?

They find a car?
- What they say?

I'll talk to you in a minute.
May is see your driver's license, please?

Yeah, what's that again,
about the pictures.

Yeah. Yeah, get them
down to as fast as you can.

The description we got
could fit a million guys.

I'll let you know, all right.

I still can't find it. I know
it's somewhere in my purse.

I was only one thing to do.

When you're traveling it seems
everything winds up in your purse.

Yes, ma'am.
- I wasn't expecting this.

I've never shown my
car certificate before.

Is these something new? - No, ma'am,
Vegas police is looking for someone.

Thought they might
try to cross the state line.

See how they could
with all you officers are.

On it's been done.
We're human we make mistakes.

Here we are.

You're Mrs. H. G. Comings? - Yes.
- Who the other occupants of your car?

Miss Susan Willis, she works for me.

And the gentleman? - James
Johnson. - Does he work for you too?

Look Mac! I'm in
a hurry. - Who isn't?

I gotta get back to
camp ending... - Take it easy.

Nobody crosses the state line until
we're satisfied with their identification.

That'll be all Mrs. Cummings.
Thank you very much. - Thank you.

Look Mac, what about me?

Yeah. Yeah, what's that?

Yeah. Yeah. Look,
I'll call you right back.

Hold that car!

You could get in a lot
of trouble without this,

at your California
visitors per minute.

If you stay in the state over 30
days, you have to buy California plates.

In all this confusion,
I forgot about. Sorry. - Forget it.

Just got a call from Vegas on that
want. He might have gotten this far.

Well, if he has been
carrying contaminated food

that's your problem not
mine. - I don't know.

Ever get contaminated about 45.

You remember when you
came out of the lunchroom

you found your your
bag outside the car?

Yes. - You know what
was then? - No.

We tought you are a strap killer
and we were trying to get away.

What made you
change your mind?

Well, you couldn't be guilty and
possibly get past all those officers, could you?

I'm sorry.

You play tennis?
- Tennis?

Yes, it's tennis court the
swimming pool of the hotel.

I tought maybe
you like to join us.

Thanks, but I've got a very
important date tomorrow.

Sounds like a matter
of life and death.

You still mad?

No, I'm not.
- Yes, you are.

I'm still got to try to change
your mind we'll get to the Inn.

Is a man driving?

Looks like a man and
two women to me.

Thanks for the litmus coming.
- That's quite all right.

Sorry I couldn't
convince you.

Are you sure you won't stay?

Well, maybe for an hour or so.

Maybe ice cream up
a few more convinces

and change that hour
is so Tuesday as though.

I'm afraid not.
But thanks anyway.

Well ate forever. - Oh, Susan.
- I'll be there in a minute.

I see you later.

Two more to set up beach
bag convicted bill a few minutes.

Who is on the truck? - Harri deliver
the papers, I know him. What is in press?

I guess I left the end before I go
and check that man out to women.

A paper to Mrs. Cummings.
Cottage number 23.

Now, hurry, hurry.

Hey, let me help you.

"STRAP KILLER" AT LARGE
HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN?

A for effort.

Did you say
something Susan?

Ankles trim, legs, hmm...

waist 20 plus 34.
What does the girl have?

What are you muttering about?

I'm just taking inventory.
- Inventory of what?

Inventory of what... Susan you're
as white as a sheet. What's the matter?

You hadn't read the whole story.

The one that was murdered was
Terry Smith. The same Terry Smith.

The same little tramp
that Harold killed himself over.

You've got to call the police.

Susan you're not listening. But
don't you know what that would mean?

They find out about
my husband and Terry.

After all I went
through to keep it quiet.

The whole filthy mess
would come out in the open

just because of
that little tramp.

Whoever killed that
creature deserves a medal.

But if we don't call the police,
he might murder someone else.

Had you thought about me Sue's?

I was in Las Vegas last night.

I had every reason to
wish that woman dead.

This the whole
thing comes out.

I... I just couldn't stand it. I
couldn't face that I couldn't.

They might even try to
connect me with the killing.

But they couldn't possibly
believe a thing like that in you.

There's no telling what people will
think when things like this come out.

This doesn't have to come out.

I'm the only one beside yourself who
knows about Mr. Cummings and Terry.

You're right Susan.

I'm the only one who
could connect you with her now.

Yes you are, ain't you? - And I promised
you that I won't mention it to anyone.

You won't?
- Of course not.

I know you didn't kill Terry, and
the rest of it is none of their business.

All right Susan.

We'll call police.
- Hang up that phone!

I'm sorry I have
to get you in deeper.

The police have
set up a roadblock.

I'd stay here for a while.
- Please, go away.

I'll leave as soon as I can.

Just a minute.

We shouldn't have done that.

Whoever it is get rid of him.

Mrs. Cummings, guess what?

I just received this
wire from Trick magazine.

They'll take our picture layout
if we give to them by next week.

You do think you can make it in
time don't you? - Sure. - Oh, good, good.

Now, all we got... oh I don't
think we've met. - Jim Johnson,

Mrs. Cummings assistant.
- How do you do Jim?

Now, everything is all
set up out of the pool.

Isn't it wonderful
about trip magazine?

Could we start right
away? - We're ready.

No we're not. We have several
things to check mrs. Cummings.

What things Jim? - We got some
homeless to fill mrs. Cummings.

I filled them all
before you came.

Did you check the flash
guns too mrs. Cummings?

Of course she did, I helped it.

To better check him again.

Guns are funny.
Sometimes they go off.

Now would you mind helping us
with some of this equipment

Oh, well, sure, sure.
- Be glad to dad.

I'll see you at the
Pope. - Yeah, uh, yeah.

Strapped killer, huh. Well, he
certainly looks like a criminal.

I can spot him like that.

You know, you sure
got beautiful equipment.

Mr. Carson.

Oh, you forgat the telegram.

Oh, yeah, thanks thanks.
I'll see you outside the pool.

Don't ever try
anything like that again.

You've trapped
yourself haven't you?

I don't know.

You can't stay here, and I on you don't
dare go to the pool. What are you going to do?

I'm gonna take a
chance and shoot pictures.

I hope that's all I shoot.

Mr. Carson?
- Yes?

Sergeant Barnett,
Las Vegas poice

Working the California
police special keys.

Whar can I do
for you sergeant?

That's a free Ford convertible girl been
here while ago two women man driving.

Oh, yes that was mrs.
Cummings, our photographer

and a couple of people
have worked with her.

Do you guarantee for them?
- Certainly.

Ever seen him before?

Let's see.

Of course, now I remember.

He's the strap killer.
- You've seen him?

Yes.
- Where?

In the afternoon paper,
he's pictures on the front page.

I have mad time to read it

Hey, wait a minute. You don't think
you'll find him around here, do you?

I don't know. I'm not familiar
with the habits for a strap killer.

Well, if we can do to
help we'll be too happy to cooperate.

I like to check your hotel register
on the way out, then I'll be on my way.

Oh, by all means,
come along now.

O-ho, here comes a photographer.

We got to take some very
important pictures.

I wonder if you would mind boy
at the office will help you out?

Sure thing. Thanks a
lot mr. Carson. - Sure.

Oh, I completely forgot.

The life preserver. I had a
repainted especially for you.

Oh, say, this is just
wonderful, wonderful.

This might even make the front cover.

If you don't mind may I
I'm a camera bug too, you know?

Of course, I haven't got the
kind of equipment that you have.

Would you like to use one
of my cameras mr. Carson?

You know I was trying
to hope you'd ask me that?

Jim, get a 4x5 mm motor out
of the casing mr. Carson.

don't know 4x5 here.

All right, Mr. Carson can use this one.

Just a minute.

Just want to make sure
you have the right film.

Certainly. Wonderful to
work with professionals.

Ah, now, now let's see,

Don't forget to pull slide mr. Carson.

know you have to pull the slide to get the picture.

You forgot the life preserver.

to do is pull it down and step on the gas.

But, he is standing... (?)
- Yes, yes!

Before I move.
Running back? - Yes.

That's a murder. - What do you
hink he's going to do to us? Hurry.

(?)

It's cooling off.

He hasn't passed roadblock 4.
- Hasn't come back this way.

So... he must have left the road
somewhere between this point and roadblock 4.

And the space of 5 miles
he's vanished into thin air.

Into the desert.

Drove off one of those washes.
Behind a check tonight.

We can wait. If we don't
get him, the desert will.

We're stuck. I need some help.

I said, I need some help.
Get out.

Please mrs. Cummings.
Aren't you proud of yourself?

Nothing will happen
to her, come on.

Guess we'd better will love
the blind of a fat dress. (?)

When I say rocket, rocket.
- Rocket? - Yeah. Like this.

Okay?

Rocket!

Harder! Rocket harder!

(?)

Hold on!

Get some brush and
put it under the wheels.

Why we catch our breath first?

I get it.

That's enough.

You get the wheel.

You get up on the side.

Okay, let's go!

Keep in moving.

Hanny, stop!

Hanny!

Hanny, stop!

?
- Listen to me!

You kill him!
- He is murder. - Leave it.

Isn't still a human being
and you just haven't right.

What are you thinking? That I
don't care about a human life?

Why'd you say that? - Please
mrs. Cummings, you're upset.

You're another than,
aren't you? - No.

I... I don't know.
I'm confused.

Maybe he didn't kill Terry.

You read the papers.
- Papers can sometimes be wrong.

He was there.
- So as we.

I was there that's what
you're really thinking isn't it.

But I had a motive.

If we ever get away from here
I'll tell the police to help save them

that's what you're thinking,
isn't? - I don't know what to think.

I'm sorry Susan.

We've been
through a lot on I am upset.

I can't think. Maybe I need rest. (?)
- Why don't you go to the car.

I am sorry Susan.

I'll be there in a minute.

Mrs. Cummings!
Mrs. Cummings!

Why did you let
her take the car?

I could wring her neck.

Why did not have straps?

I don't blame her
for doing what she did.

The poor woman's hysterical
you treated me the way you did.

She doesn't know
what she's doing.

I have you since I had
gone with it. - Why didn't you?

Because I happen to
be trying to help you.

I guess I'm supposed
to say I'm sorry.

Sorry for what? For being
a kidnapper, a murderer?

For bringing us out
here in the desert to die?

What are you gonna do?
- We gotta get that car. Come on.

Mrs. Cumings!
Mrs. Cumings!

Mrs. Cumings!

Mrs. Cumings!

What if Mrs. Cumings!?
- What about her?

You gotta find her,
she can't be very far.

Look it's getting darker. We better
get this car fixed and get out of here.

Believe it?

I thought you said anybody this
far out in the desert alone would die.

She knew that
before she took the car.

You better leave the both of
us here cuz I'm gonna find her.

There's only one
way we can find her.

She will able to see
this from wherever she is.

Can't do any more.

It's warmer up here.

Yeah. Aha.

Give me that
location again, will you?

W9, error, I got it.

Yeah rice. (?)
I'll let you know. Thanks.

Something hot? - Yeah, fire right
out in the middle of the desert.

Fire? You'd be crazy
light a fire out there.

It's like signaling.

Send a helicopter
out there, will you Ben?

I didn't kill her, Susan.

I didn't even know her.

All I did was buy
her a drink. One drink.

And for 65 cents I bought a
martini mixed with dynamite.

The cops dragged me in...
and all the questions and answers.

You can usually figure two and two
make four, but their arithmetic scared me.

That dynamite
went offline got panicky.

I had the same
feeling once before.

I was in a foxhole.

The whole world
seemed to explode.

Had to get out.

I got a medal for fighting
my way out of that one.

I can fight my
way out of this one to.

I didn't kill her,
and I can prove it.

I spent the night in
Vegas for the friend.

Paul Bartlett army engineer

And the wonders with a slide rule.

You see I own a home.

Pretty nice place, overlooks the
Salton sea from any room in the house.

The only trouble is it
setting in four feet of water.

Mom used to say we owned a five
room house seven when the tides out.

Paul thinks he
might be able to save it.

Something about lifting
the foundation panel, I don't know.

I'm supposed to meet them
at the house... in the morning.

He's on some
kind of secret duty.

Can't even use his own name.

That's why the police
couldn't check me out in Vegas.

If I miss him... I've been a lot of
trouble before I can prove anything.

You know when a
mortar shell hits a target.

You don't have to
look twice to know it.

I quess I'm falling
the most the same thing.

You don't have to look twice.

Guess I better
get the car fixed.

Have it running in a few minutes.

Mrs. Cumings. - Susan
I'm so terribly sorry

for what I did running
away and leaving you.

You don't seem particularly
glad to see me Susan?

It's not that. I'm just a
little bit surprised, that's all.

Is he here?
- Yes, he sticks in the car.

So worried... you
alone with... murderer.

Nothing's happened to me.
- I'll never forgive myself.

It's been horrible out here alone
thinking of what I'd done to you.

I hope you understand I... I never
would have left you, it's only though...

Well, Jim had the car ready.

When I saw the fire, I didn't
know whether to come back or not.

After what I did to Jim, I
know what he might do to me.

If Jim made violence Mrs. Cummings.

Yeah. Yeah.

Sure thing. Copter pilot.

It is, huh?

No, no, no thanks,
that won't benecessary.

Okay.
- Did he land?

Yeah, fire still burning,
nobody's there.

Tire tracks hint car heading west.

Who knows. Tire
tracks heading west huh.

Spot that fire again.

w9. - And where did
he leave the highway?

Right here. - I'll extend the
line west through those two points.

Where do you come out?

Salton sea. What are you getting it?

Probably a Navy Department
report on sergeant James Henry

gives his last known
address as the Salton sea.

Maybe's making his way home.
Maybe we would catch him there.

Could I see that
address please?

The only thing you'll find here
is fish. The place is flooded out.

This is far as I go.

You can pick up the main highway
by going back about a mile and turning left.

And take it right
back to the hotel.

There's a sheriff's
office in Mecca.

Hallo.

What are you doing here?

Brougt you this.
- I don't need that.

I believe you.
But, you dont believe me.

Is that a house?
- Yeah.

Is water deep?

This is the kitchen.

I'm gonna get any
cookie not even salad.

What a worthless?

Well there's the stove
looks pretty rusty right now.

I can do something
about that.

We probably got some
fish in the icebox already.

Good.

What is it?

Jim
Situation normal-

Brass fouled me up-
when you read this tomorrow,

I'll be gone yesterday!
Sorry- see you sometime, I hope...
Paul

What is it Jim?

It's like I got up on the
wrong side of the world.

You're under arrest. Hold your
hands where I can see them.

Got a gun miss of
45 automatic. Does he still have it?

Yeah, I still got it.

Without stepping
between us miss,

take his gun from him
and put it on the sink.

But officer I can prove
that he's innocent.

Do what he says.

But you gotta listen to me. I know
more about this than either of you.

We'll talk after the
guns are at the sink.

Where's the other lady?

That's what I
wanted to tell you about.

Her husband...
dead women.

Jim, come, he will drown.

Let him drown.

He drowned after he shot
you both resisting arrest.

Both? - What
else can I do?

You might hit before. (?)

Help! Help!

Comon, get me out! (?)

(?)
- Please, you must help me. (?)

You'll kill her, aren't you?
- Jim, please, help me.

You kill her, aren't you?
- No. No, I didn't.

Please Jim, don't go away,
don't go away, come back. (?)

Yes, I did that. I kill her.

Where did you kill her?
- Back in Las Vegas. In bedroom.

How? - With the leash.
The dog's leash.

I kill her with Tygers leash.

My husband shot himself
because of what she did to him.

(?)

They picked on me.

How did you please
you've gotta help. (?)

You figured if they found
me dead you'd be free.

Don't go away, please wait!

You can't go down any further.

There's concrete underneath.

With going homicide charges
sergeant, we heard a confession.

A couple of other
minor items, like kidnapping

grand theft auto
and escape,

the other property
mother of thing.

... hands. (?)
- Hold on, Ben.

Get in the car you two.

Like guys got a list
of ponies against ... low. (?)

We're gonna lose our
principal witness Ben.

Wife can't testify
against her husband. - Wife?

You know Joe, some days I get
awful tired of that to be a cup.

Yeah.

You know things may be a little
tough before we get the place fixed up.

How tough can be when you have
a swimming pool in every room.
