Everybody loves a parade,

and the Chinese Nationalists on Formosa are no exception.

An impressive display of modern military might

passes in review for Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek

in a dramatic demonstration of readiness in the Far East.

In Miami Florida, belles work out with dumbbells.

And if they have any energy left,

they try a few tricks on the pogo sticks.

They do this by the hour, seeking that hour glass figure.

Philadelphia, the city of homes.

The city of brotherly love

is the scene of dedication ceremonies

that will turn the palatial mansion

of dead millionaire Bartram Jonesworth

into a spiritual research centre for Sister Sarah,

who is widely known for her remarkable occult revelations.

In order to start a movement

that would put within the reach of everyone,

the tremendous untapped resources

of the collective spiritual, unconscious,

devoted followers of Sister Sarah

have showered her with the money and gifts

so necessary to transform a vision into a reality.

Now, for a few words from Sister Sarah.

Excuse me a moment, please, Sister Sarah,

won't you say something for our newsreel audience?

They're all interested to know just how you feel.

Well, I should like to say a few words

about the late Bartram Jonesworth.

Well, feel perfectly free to do so.

When Batram Jonesworth first came to me six years ago,

he said, quote, "I do not believe in charity."

"I am a businessman," unquote.

So I made an agreement with Mr. Jonesworth

that I would never ask him for a donation, not even a dime.

However, if he wished to sell something,

I'd be glad to talk business.

For these automobiles, I paid Mr. Jonesworth

the total sum of 85 cents.

For this fur I'm wearing, 40 cents

and this priceless necklace, 60 cents.

And finally, this magnificent mansion,

this 17 acre estate, the price asked was $1,

not a cent more.

I think this all proves something

that while Barton Jonesworth did not believe in charity

as a businessman, he was very, very generous.

Hello.

Hello.

What can I do for you?

I wanna see Sister Sarah.

What about?

I wanna make a donation.

Oh.

Sister Sarah?

What is it, my child?

Thank you sister Sarah, thank you so much.

Tell me, did you have lunch?

Well, you are having lunch with me and dinner too.

Now come along, come along.

How'd you make out?

- It's cased. - Good girl.

I told you she could handle it.

Boy, that's some castle she's got there.

I got tired counting the rooms.

The layout. What's the layout?

It looks good, there's only one hitch.

We'll have to time it to the split second.

You have exactly 15 minutes.

What do you mean 15 minutes?

What's this 15 minute business?

We got to talking about this and that,

and she tells me she's crazy about John Facenda.

John Facenda?

He's a news report on television, he's on every night.

At 11 o'clock for 15 minutes.

All right, so every night she watches John Facenda

and he's on for 15 minutes. So what?

The television sets downstairs, upstairs

Will you get to it?

Where does she keep the necklace?

In her bedroom in a wall safe.

I don't know.

I don't know, that ain't much time.

Especially not on this one, our first big job.

30 Seconds.

Would you cut it out?

- Cut what out? - You're breathing down my neck.

20 seconds.

18, check the light.

10 Seconds. Mr. Facenda.

Settle down, boys.

Standby please.

Russia said today that it rejected a recent US offer

of surplus farm products because America refused

to include any strategic goods in the deal.

The official news agency said that a commercial treaty

was annulled by the United States several years ago

and accused the United States of erecting

international trade barriers.

We got a new round of hard bargaining

on each west arm cut.

The proposals were in one blueprint from Russia,

two from the west.

After three weeks of preliminary introductions,

the real negotiating is expected soon.

After the five power talks reconvene today.

Most details of the plans have been leaked to the press

by formal announcements, by delegates,

or through publication and official communist newspapers.

Even though this is a so-called secret conference.

Cape May, New Jersey, coast guard,

bethels from New York deliver with Delaware,

searched today for a Navy aeroplane

with three men aboard, which vanished

in last night's Windstorm.

The missing crash is a Twin-engine Beachcraft,

which left El Toro, California.

Last night the pilot of the craft reported

that it was about 15 miles northwest of Red Bank

and had sufficient fuel for three more hours.

The pilot gave no indication of trouble.

Western Statesmen were pleased

with the construction progress

of the unified air rate screen across Western Europe

from Norway to Turkey.

The defence ministers of NATO predicted

that the jam proof communication and warning network

will be completed early next year.

Come on, let's go.

I'm tired I wanna check in.

Wait a minute.

I don't like where that car is parked.

There's no law against parking here.

Yeah, yeah, I know. I know.

Let's stick around a little while. Huh?

The necklace, you've got it?

Not yet

Wait here.

What are you doing? Where are you going?

Philadelphia, a lovesick boy was wounded fatally today

in a gun battle with 35 policemen.

They trapped him in a woodland hideout in Fairmont Park

where he had fled after killing his sweetheart

and three members of her family.

Is this your car?

Yeah, but I sure wish it wasn't Officer.

What are you doing around here?

You know where there's an all night mechanic?

No.

What's wrong with it?

Stalled on me. Won't start.

Let's see your cards.

Yeah.

I must have walked three miles. Nothing.

Not one gas station opened.

Places close up pretty early around here.

You know what time it is?

Look, maybe it's the battery.

If it is, I'll give you a push.

No, it isn't the battery.

She turns over all right.

I don't know what it is.

Okay, let me try it. You got the key?

How's the cards?

They're in order.

Some nights a man shouldn't go out.

That all depends on what he's out for.

How many drinks you had?

Not a drop. I never touch it.

No. Let's get a whiff.

Look, what's your line of work?

Instalment business.

- Door to door? - Yeah.

How's business?

Oh, I break even.

You know how it is, it's a struggle.

What ain't?

What you gonna do now?

Climb in the back and go to sleep.

That is, unless you wanna drive me home?

Does that look like a taxi?

Come on, let's get going.

At least one indictment may be returned

by the federal grand jury investigating

the million dollar tax case of Roger T Lee's.

The grand jury has been sitting in special session

inquiring into why the famed industrialists

had been able to evade filing income taxes for six years.

One minute, 26 seconds,

25 seconds, 24 seconds.

- 23 seconds. - What are you timing him for?

You think he can hear you?

Have a nice night and a good day tomorrow. Good night all.

Come on.

Nat?

How'd it go?

Okay.

Sick?

Nerves.

You don't look so good yourself.

Still racing, it's going a mile a minute.

You want a drink?

- I'd choke on it. - Coffee?

Not for me. Nothing for me.

I just wanna sit here, just let me sit.

You Nat?

Nat?

Nat?

I'm talking to you.

You want some coffee?

Yeah.

Wow.

What's it read?

Hey, you're in the light.

Come on, let's have it.

What's the story?

Get out of the light. Move will ya?

How can I see what I'm doing?

It's merchandise, Nat.

It's very expensive merchandise.

- How much? - We really made a haul.

We got a piece of property here.

All right. All right.

What's the figure?

Oh.

Coming around.

One and a half.

What?

That high?

150,000.

That's the store price.

How much can we get for it?

From a fence, around 80, 85.

What are you talking about?

That's more than 50% off.

Alright, you sell it, take it to Tiffany's.

It's worth 150, we sell it for 85 grand.

We'll be giving it away.

You'll be getting 20,000.

That buys a lot of lunches.

You gotta get more than 80.

Here. Feel it.

Watch out.

It'll burn your fingers.

Get that drift?

It's hot dough.

It's scorching hot.

A fence gets a hold of this right away he's got worries.

Right away, he's gonna start thinking,

how he can get rid of it.

The setting, it's platinum, it's gotta be melted down.

Stones have to be cut, recut, maybe cut again.

Not by no second-rater.

A job like this needs a high-grade engineer, special talent.

You don't buy that with peanuts.

Someday we'll sit down and I'll teach you

the jewellery business.

Better get busy right away.

There's a fence I know in Baltimore.

Call him. Make it fast.

Sooner we get this thing off our hands.

No. No phone calls, no wires, no night letters.

Not even in code. Nothing.

Why not?

This trinket needs a market, we gotta turn it into cash.

Relax.

Cool yourself.

Why the slow motion?

What are we waiting for?

A drop in the temperature.

You think that's hot?

It's hotter out there, boiling hot.

The law, Baylock.

The local authorities, the blue boys.

What do you think they're doing right now, sleeping?

Tell me.

Have you had any visitors, any strangers?

Doorbell, ringers?

What are you getting at?

Did you invite them in?

Show them through the mansion?

Sure I did.

When you live in a place like this,

you want people to see it.

You want 'em to have a look.

One of them had a good look.

- You don't mean- - Yes I do Madam.

This mansion was cased.

It was thoroughly and efficiently cased.

You hear it boiling, you turn it off.

He made a mistake so obvious, I can't understand it.

Fundamental error in criminal technique.

I don't follow.

What did he do?

Let them see his face.

It's almost as if he wants to get caught.

You out of your head?

We can't just sit here with this thing.

When things cool off out there, we'll be ready to move.

I wanna move it now.

I wanna get my split and take off Nat.

Please. Can't you see it my way?

No.

You wanna get off that track.

We all gotta move one way.

We're an organisation.

Try to remember that. - And forget me?

Forget there's a 30 year rap staring me in the face?

Can't you see my only move?

I gotta take a stroll, Nat.

I got a stroll clear out of this country

and the quicker I get started

the better chance I'll have.

I've always wanted that chance.

Hoped for it.

Dreamed about it.

The one juicy haul that puts the money in my pocket.

The money that takes me on a long, long trip.

Central America.

I'll stay there.

I will have what it needs to stay there.

20,000 in George Washingtons.

20,000.

Enough to buy some ground, grow something.

Bananas.

Anything.

For years I've had it up here, the picture.

A lot of pictures.

All dealing with transportation.

Begins with me at the travel agency, buying the ticket.

From there I go to the airport.

And I'm walking through the gate

And there she is.

Waiting for me.

Big, fat, beautiful job with four engines,

80 passengers

and I'm one of them.

We taxi across the field, we get second of the takeoff.

Then we're picking up speed.

Faster and faster.

Next thing I know, I'm going up, up.

I'm up there.

I'm off the ground

going up higher, higher.

Heading South,

far South.

Farthest south, you'll get is South Philadelphia

10th and Reed, they call it Moyamensing Prison.

Sorry Captain,

there doesn't seem to be anything here.

Not even close, huh?

- George? - Yeah.

Find more photographs George.

Now bring in those latest files we received

from Oregon and Arizona, the ones from the F.B.I too.

What a dump.

$45 a month.

Well, they sure take advantage of us tourists.

Where's Gladden?

In the kitchen.

Yeah, she's in the kitchen.

You know why she's in the kitchen?

So you can't look at her.

You are always looking at her.

What am I supposed to do, look at you?

More on the temples.

Yeah, right there. That's right.

Now the chin. Can you shorten up on the chin?

Yeah. You know that lip, that bottom lip,

that ought to be a little thinner.

- You sure? - Yeah.

Looks good to me.

Yeah?

Well we're giving it a try, it's the only angle we have.

Yeah, I'll give you a call as soon as we get it.

If we get it.

How's it shaping up? - It's coming closer.

Nat?

You want a sandwich or something?

Maybe later.

We got some chicken in the ice box.

How about a chicken sandwich on rye bread?

We got rye bread.

Thanks Gladden but I'm not hungry.

Well, you should be.

You didn't have no dinner, you gotta eat.

This'll do for now.

Stop it.

- Stop what? - You know what?

Don't sit there looking like you don't know.

All I'm doing is sitting.

Looking at me, looking at me.

You're always looking at me.

So what?

What's wrong with that?

Can't I look if I want to?

- You beast. - Cool it.

I'll scratch your eyes out.

Cool it.

Lay off. Leave her alone.

Why don't you grow up?

You stay out of it.

You're over 21, you act like 12.

Wanna do me a favour?

Sure.

Climb into bed.

Go to sleep and don't wake up.

Why don't you let it drift?

No. I got something to tell her.

You're gonna quit talking to me like that.

I won't have any talk like that. Next time you open your mouth to me

Then stay out of my face.

Keep your rotten pulse to yourself.

I was only giving you advice,

but you are a stubborn child, you won't listen.

Listen to you? I'd rather hear a cat yelling in an alley.

Now move, will you get out this kitchen?

Now you're gonna hear what I got to say.

I told you to get out.

Put down that pitcher, you throw that at me

You dried up lizard, you gonna leave me alone?

All right throw it. I dare you to throw it.

Why you.

Leave me alone.

I don't get it.

Tell me one thing, what do you need her for?

All right, she does a job.

She knows how to case a layout.

But you know as well as I do need she ain't no expert at it.

I know a hundred skirts can operate better.

So I know that ain't the reason.

Another thing I know for sure...

it ain't as if you got eyes for her.

If you were sweet on the chick, I could understand it

but you're not.

You hardly even look at her.

You don't even know she's around.

What is it?

Why can't you let her go?

We are an organisation, she's a charter member.

Now he's calling from the rule book.

Why do you hold onto her?

Why can't you let her go?

There's got be a reason.

Perfect. That's him all right.

Printing office,

please hurry.

This is Keebler, burglary unit.

Can you send a messenger up here right away?

I have a pencil drawing here, a man's face.

I'll need at least a thousand copies.

This is going out to 13 states.

It began a long time ago.

Just another orphan in an orphanage.

You didn't like that high gate,

one day you climbed over, you got away.

They wouldn't stop, they didn't even look at you,

made you feel lonesome, not wanted.

Come on, kid. Hope in.

And that was the start of it.

That day when he picked you up,

from that day on, you had a home

and a father.

You'll never forget his face.

That's him.

That's Gerald.

And the little girl

that's Gladden.

He put food in your belly.

He put clothes on your back,

a roof over your head.

He was good to you.

He was kind, gentle.

He was so gentle.

You'll never forget his voice.

That soft voice.

You could hardly believe it when you found out,

when you asked him what kind of work he did,

and he answered, "I break into places."

"And I steal."

"I'm a burglar."

But no gun.

He never used a gun, no weapons at all.

That was the first thing he taught you.

You do a job, you do it clean.

And that night, that night he took you out with him

your first job.

He asked you to make a promise, to give me him you word,

your word of honour.

If anything ever happened to him, you'd take care of her.

His little daughter.

You promised, you gave him your word.

Three years later, something went wrong.

It was your fault, it was your first mistake.

Stop.

I'm warning you, I'll shoot.

You ran. You ran like a rabbit.

Gotta get Gladden.

Gladden. Gladden. Gladden.

Gladden.

Nat?

Why aren't you asleep?

I couldn't sleep.

Why not?

I don't know, I just couldn't close my eyes.

What about you?

- Gladden? - Yes Nat.

I've been thinking.

What is it?

You need a change.

You ought a go away for a while.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot.

Now don't get me wrong.

It's alright Nat,

you want me out of the way, I'll step out of the way.

Will you quit twisting it around?

All I said was

that you needed a- - Don't Nat.

Don't work on it. You'll only get yourself in deep.

So Nat.

I'll do anything.

Anything you say.

After all, you're in charge.

You are the babysitter. Quit that talk.

You're the legal guardian, the foster father.

I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear it.

Why not? It's what it amounts to.

Unless you'd rather not see it that way.

Please. Will you let me explain.

It isn't necessary.

Listen to me.

It's Dohmer, he won't leave you alone.

And Baylock, you're always fighting with Baylock.

- I can handle them. - I don't know, they're getting jittery.

Besides, the trip would be good for you.

You're pale.

It'll be good for your health.

There's nothing wrong with my health.

Now, let's not argue.

I'm not arguing.

This trip I'm taking,

where do you want me to go?

It doesn't matter.

New York, Boston.

They ain't exactly health resorts.

You said, I'm going for my health, remember?

How about the seashore?

Wildwood, Atlantic City

Does it make any difference?

Atlantic City, is that all right?

Yeah, sure, it's all right.

You'll have all that salt air and sunshine.

You can sit on the beach, go swimming.

Okay. Okay. When do I leave?

There's no use waiting.

Should I start packing now?

Now look, I didn't say that.

You don't have to rush it. - Don't I?

I'll leave first in the morning.

I'll take you to the station.

Attention.

Will Mrs. Helen Burnat

please report to the baggage room immediately.

The Atlantic City Express

will leave at 7:15 from stairway number eight.

Attention please.

The morning congressional arriving from New York

on platform number three

will leave for Wilmington, Baltimore and Washington at 7:25.

The Atlantic City Express will at 7:15

from stairway number eight.

Nat?

When are we going to do something?

I want to get busy.

Why don't you weave a rug for your head?

Look, I say we move.

You say we wait, that makes it an issue.

It needs talk.

Alright, let's talk.

Let's kick it around a bit and see what happens.

It comes to this, if I'm staying, I kill my nerves.

I gotta get moving, I need travelling.

I need it bad.

Nat, please let me call Baltimore

and make a quick transaction.

We'll get ourselves some finance.

Then we can split the cash and I can take off.

What for?

You're comfortable here.

If you stay put, you'll stay comfortable.

I don't see it that way.

What I got to do is travel.

And I don't mean no 40 mile bus ride.

A place I got in mind is Central America.

All right. Let it be Central America.

But that comes later.

- It's gotta be now. - Later Baylock. Later.

Later he says, as if it's just a matter of killing time.

Look, Nat, I'm on probation.

I can't afford another stretch.

With you it's different.

You've never been nabbed, never booked,

never printed, never mugged.

You see the way it is, you can walk a wide street.

I'm on a tight rope.

My name's Della.

I said my name's Della.

What goes here?

It's a situation.

You do this all the time?

No, of course not.

You know, I've never done it before.

How would I know?

You just know that's all.

You're looking at me and you know.

What's your name?

Nathaniel.

Say, what is this?

What do you want?

Basically, basically I'm out to find myself a man.

Wait for me outside.

Are you kidding?

No.

No. Nathaniel, I'm not kidding.

Well, that's tough on you.

Sorry.

No sale.

Just to let you know, I'm not selling anything.

Nathaniel.

Nathaniel.

Nat.

You know, I like the feel of that name.

Nat.

Soft but it has a snap to it, a soft snap.

It's a patent leather name.

Later tonight, I'll be home.

You needn't even ring the bell.

The door will be open.

Light me Nat.

That's three.

Three what?

Three drinks in the last half hour.

Tell me something.

Who hurt you?

Answer me Della.

You sure hauled that in from left field.

Come on, let's have it.

What's the point?

You've heard it before, it's same sob story.

All right. If you'd rather skip it.

No, Nat.

I'll tell you.

You ask me, so I'll tell you.

It's like this...

the girl comes from a wonderful family.

Really wonderful.

The old man's a no good loafer.

Mother drinks bootleg whiskey,

50 cents a pint, when she can't steal it.

Where was this?

Youngstown, Ohio.

Had four brothers, three sisters.

We were a very close family.

We had to be close, we lived in two rooms.

When did you pull out?

When I was 17.

I went to Chicago.

Great city, Chicago.

The city of opportunity.

First three, I turned down.

And along comes Sir Galahad to the rescue.

Turns out he runs a model agency.

At least that's what he called it.

Best thing I know there's a bunch of creeps with camera.

Somehow I landed in show business.

I was a dancer.

What's known as a high kicker.

One night I kicked a booking agent right in the mouth,

broke his jaw.

Finally it happened.

I meet an eligible bachelor.

Nice guy, real nice.

So completely different from all the others.

So clean.

I married him.

And I was happy.

I was so happy, I couldn't believe it.

Then comes the left hook, right between the eyes.

He took off?

Jet propelled.

Why? What did it?

A photograph.

Some joker showed him a photograph of me.

One of the specials from the modelling agency.

He didn't even bother to hit me.

His name was Gerald.

He had a daughter, Gladden.

Gladden?

That's a strange name for a girl.

Well, she was a strange kid.

Always so quiet,

lonely, bewildered.

Tell me more about Gerald.

He brought me up.

He was a father to me.

He taught me everything I know.

You feel obligated?

It runs deeper than that.

A lot deeper.

One thing he drilled into me.

You make a promise, you gotta keep it.

I gave him my word I'd always take care of Gladden.

You know, it's sort of weird.

A lot of things come back to me now.

Like the times I wanted to pull out of that bargain,

get a job, be legitimate.

What stopped you?

I don't know.

I've never been able to figure it out.

Like something inside me, steering me.

Gerald.

Della?

Della?

Della?

You don't get it from him.

I'll get it from my little blonde doll

down in Atlantic City.

Better be getting back there, you have work to do.

You'll get the necklace baby.

Find me some inspiration.

Later.

Let's save that for later.

Competition.

A business rival.

I knew this would happen.

This is what we get for waiting around.

We should have gone to Baltimore days ago.

Nat it's still not too late, we'll go to Baltimore now.

I'll contact that fence. - No.

What do you mean, no?

We're going to Atlantic City.

For what?

Are you crazy? What do we need her for?

You don't get that point.

She needs us.

That's for us.

White Horse Pike Highway.

Let's see your papers.

GRM 3642. Eighth Harbour,

west of the White Horse Pike, Hospital case.

667 report.

You know what you were doing?

The speedometer read 50.

Yeah, but you were on the left side

of that white line over there.

I'm sorry Officer, I guess I must have been dreaming.

We". Don't let it turn into a nightmare.

Stay on the right side.

Thank you Officer, I will.

Questioning in a burglary.

Three white men in a light grey,

four-door Chevrolet, '51 model.

Pennsylvania one, M, Mary, Z zebra, 7-0.

Last seen crossing

Turn off the ignition and get out of the car.

Hey Steve.

I always thought you were a moron, now I know it.

Why'd you have to shoot in the face?

Why not the arm, the shoulder?

Save it. He can't hear you.

The above men made their escape in a 1951

light grey Chevrolet.

Pennsylvania One, M, Mary, Z, zebra, 7-0.

Last seen going east on the White Horse Pike from Hamilton.

Use caution, they are armed and dangerous.

Where we at now?

Take a whiff.

- Salt. - From the ocean.

Let's go. - What about the car?

We're gonna need it.

What for?

So they'll see it again.

It's number one on their list.

Come on.

Let's see, where'd that gun battle take place?

Black Horse Pike, 31 miles from here.

That's makes it one mile this side of Hamilton.

Here. Right here.

I guess you know about the trooper?

They said he got in the face, died immediately.

The other trooper emptied his revolver at them.

Chased them. Lost them. Radioed headquarters.

They got on it right away and set up roadblocks.

One here. Here.

One at this point in this road.

Is that what you guess?

I'm not guessing. I'm calculating.

See this tiny intersection right here?

The trooper passed it and three miles up the road,

he came in the first road block. That's obvious.

There's only one turn at this intersection.

It's a right hand turn.

There's another turn there.

Another one there.

No more roads.

That'd put 'em somewhere in the woods.

How could they drive a car through the woods?

- Wagon paths. - Very slow, very bumpy.

We" put yourself in his place.

You gotta keep moving, you can't turn back.

Finally the woods get too thick.

No more paths.

So what you do is abandon the car

and walk through the woods to this point, right here.

Marshlands the Bay area.

In the distance you see Atlantic City,

playground of the world.

Huge crowd of visitors from every state in the union.

Get it?

This man I'm looking for is a professional.

He's extremely intelligent.

He knows that his best hiding place is in a crowded area.

An area where he is surrounded by other faces.

This looks okay.

Wait here for me, I'll be back.

Where are you going?

Gladden.

Hello.

I'm calling from downstairs.

Now look, don't talk, I'll do the talking.

I've gotta see you.

We" get rid of him.

I don't care what you tell him, just get rid of him,

it's important.

And wait there for me, I'll be up in a few minutes.

Yes.

I think you better go now.

Pack your things, you're checking out.

Why, what's happened?

Complications.

Come on. We gotta move.

Not Me.

I like it here.

Plenty of sunshine, all that salt air.

It's good for my health.

That's why you sent me here, remember?

For my health.

What are you getting at?

I'm feeling very healthy these days.

His name's Charlie.

Charlie?

Yeah, Charlie.

That's his name, Charlie.

Really?

Tell me about him.

He likes me.

He likes me very much.

Very, very much.

It's a good thing you are sitting down

because you are gonna hear something.

Your boyfriend Charlie, he's a cop.

He wears a badge, he's a blue boy.

What are you giving me? You think I'm stupid of something?

Get with it will ya? He's a cop.

That's not all of it.

He's also in business for himself.

And what he wants, he wants 100%.

Here's what he wants.

It checks Gladden. It figures.

What do you mean, it figures?

How does it figure?

Downstairs in the lobby, I saw his face.

I remembered him.

From when? From where?

The night we pulled the haul, outside the mansion.

The two cops who questioned me, he was one of them.

Just what are you trying to engineer?

He's the engineer.

He pulled a trace job that wins the grand prize.

Nat please. Please,

Don't you see, he had it figured.

He knew I was hitting that mansion for loot.

Stop it.

Stop it. Don't try to sell me short.

He didn't want the other cop to know.

At the station house, he gets his own car, he doubles back.

He watches us, gives us a head start and then follows us.

Face it Gladden, he's just a spider weaving a web.

Trying to pull you in.

Come on, let's get outta here. Get your things.

- I'm not going. - What?

I said I'm not going.

Not with you.

I'm done mister. I've had it.

Gladden what is it?

What's the matter?

You don't know.

You really don't know.

Well look at me, I'm a woman.

I'm flesh and blood and I got feelings.

But you never knew that, you never wanted to know.

I was starving for you.

Night after night I tore pillows apart with my teeth.

So hungry for you, wanting you so much.

And you, you knew from nothing.

I was just another gadget in your toolkit.

But now it's quitting time.

I'm out of the organisation.

You'll change your mind.

Wanna bet?

You'll come back in, we'll be waiting.

You better stock up on groceries

'cause you're in for a long wait.

We're in a wooden shack near the bay.

Four blocks west of the Albany Avenue Bridge.

You're talking to the wall.

Go on mister.

Take a walk.

The only thing you've got that's worthwhile

is your word.

Give me your word, your word of word honour.

If anything ever happens to me,

give me your word.

You'll take care of Gladden.

You'll take care of Gladden.

Gladden Gladden.

Take care of Gladden.

Gladden.

What'd you do it for?

What did you do it for?

She tells him she wants out of the organisation.

She wants no part of it, she's out,

She's given us the kiss-off, so what does he do?

He gives her the emeralds.

He gives her the emeralds.

Operator, I'd like to make a long distance call

Philadelphia.

Greenwood 3-0-4-5-6.

That's right.

Look, I need you down here right away.

Why? What's happened? Is he there?

Sure he is here. What do you think I'm calling you for?

Can I see him? Can I talk to him again?

Not for that. I tried that angle and it didn't work.

Here on in, we're gonna do it my way.

That's out.

None of that Charlie.

It's gotta be handled my way.

If we don't move in now we're gonna be all loused up.

Listen, we're playing against time.

Now get that through your head.

I can't keep running back and forth between here and Philly

didn't even report for duty last night.

I keep making excuses like that, somebody's gonna catch on.

Charlie listen to me.

No.

You listen to me.

Don't you argue with me.

Put that classy frame of yours in that convertible

and get down here as fast as you can.

Now listen.

They're hiding out in a small wooden shack.

I'll tell you where it is.

Come here a minute.

You see them?

See what?

Boats.

So their boats, so what?

Transportation.

That cabin cruiser.

The white one?

I'm gonna have a look.

How do you know about boats?

They float.

Come on in.

Join the party.

Yeah.

But you don't have to leave.

I'm gonna give you a real break.

All you gotta do is just hand it over, that's all.

Alright. That can be arranged.

Yeah, when?

- I'll need a little time. - No, no, no.

You don't need time.

You're gonna take it out from wherever it is right now.

And you're gonna slide it across to me.

Nice and easy.

I haven't got it, Charlie.

You don't?

What a pity.

What a real pity.

Turn around.

Wait, Charlie, don't do it.

Not yet. - Why not?

Why waste time? - Charlie, listen.

He's got it. I know he's got it.

Maybe not.

Want me to make sure?

All right, go on, frisk him.

Tell me something pal.

How old are you? - 35.

You wanna see 36?

46?

56?

Look Charlie, if I tell you where it is,

what guarantee do I have that you won't drill me anyway?

- All depends. - Depends on what?

On information, whether I buy it or not.

I guess you know I'm not playing.

- I know that. - Good.

We both know if I pull this trigger,

nobody's gonna call it murder.

It's gonna be law enforcement.

You sure dealt yourself a nice hand.

You save the compliments.

All it is I want is that necklace.

Cool yourself Charlie, you'll get it.

Convince me.

Come on. Come on, your time's running out.

Ocean View Hotel.

Oh no. No sale.

She's got it Charlie. It's in that room.

How come I didn't see it?

I've been putting in a lot of time with that babe

and went over every inch of that room

and it wasn't there.

It's there now Charlie.

I put it there for a reason.

Get his gun.

Check it for clips.

Give me the car keys.

Brother here moves an inch, drill him.

Might make you famous.

Get a medal from the police department.

Nice weather out there.

Mind if I take a stroll? - Don't move.

You don't walk out that door unless you go with me.

With you?

All the way.

When Charlie gets back we won't be here.

Well? What's it gonna be?

A gamble strictly a long shot.

You better call off that bet.

I can't. Don't you see how it adds.

I'm dealing with time.

I've got to get to Gladden.

Nat, please don't go for that door.

Stay away from that door.

Room 42 and hurry.

Gladden is that you, are you all right?

Now listen, you gotta get out of there fast.

Please if you don't leave now, you'll never get out alive.

We don't have time to talk, I'll talk to you later.

I'll meet you on the boardwalk.

The steel pier, in front of the steel pier.

Wait for me there.

Gladden? - Oh Nat.

We gotta get off the boardwalk and back to that bay.

There's a boat there with...

What's this you got?

The music box.

Officer you wanna hold it a minute?

I'll take over from here on end, I already put in the call.

We the dead...

welcome you.

We the dead...

welcome you.

What cop from Philly? He never checked with me.

Okay, skip it. I'll find out later.

No, not yet. Don't move in.

That pier's too crowded.

I don't want anybody to get hurt.

This is it.

We the dead...

welcome you.

We the dead...

welcome you.

We the dead...

welcome you.

We the dead...

welcome you.

We the dead...

welcome you.

Ladies and gentlemen,

direct from their fabulous European tour,

the sensational Virengaards.

Tired?

I'm alright.

We'll stay here a while longer and then work our way back.

I'm worried Nat.

I don't like it out here.

Come on, let's move.

Not yet.

Stick around.

Enjoy the show.

Well ladies and gentlemen,

that's our show for tonight.

Thanks for coming and please come again.

Goodnight.

You want it Charlie?

Big joke.

Yeah, I want it.

Buy it.

What's the price?

You let her go.

She can talk?

She won't talk.

She knows better than that.

Whatever happens is her word against yours.

And you are a cop, remember?

If she opens her mouth, they'll send her up.

All right.

All right, it's a deal.

Please Nat.

Can't you see what he's gonna do?

As soon as he has it, he'll plug you.

He'll claim you reached for a gun.

Go on. Do what I'm telling you.

I'll catch up with you later.

All right pal.

Go on.

You take a walk.

Wait a minute, miss.

Where you coming from?

Nat? Nat what has he done to you Nat?

Nice work Charlie.

What did he do, reach for his gun?

No.

It wasn't that at all.

He tried to get away.

Oh, you rotten liar.

How's he doing?

He's done.

Well, call the coroner and put it on ice.

He had the necklace on him all right.

What do you mean he had it?

He was afraid of getting caught with it on him.

He threw it away in the ocean.

No he didn't Charlie.

Tell him to hand it over.

Take him down to headquarters, I want them held.

What do we mark him Captain?

You mark it victim.
