Baretta (1975–1978): Season 1, Episode 3 - Woman in the Harbor - full transcript

Help!

Tell me who hired you.

Please! Who hired you?

Shiller: You're
trying to tell me

that someone in this
department phonied the report!

Let me find out I'm wrong then.

All right, Baretta,
72 hours, but that's it.

I sold you for a little
lady and three kids...

whose old man who got
squashed in the cement.

You're a corpse.

If they killed your friend
because he spotted this woman,



you know what's
going to happen to you

now that you talked
to him at the airport?

Nothing's going to happen to me.

"Lightfoot Louie" is going to
be ahead of them all the way.

(theme music playing)

(sirens wail)

(police radio chatter)

Tony! Amigo. "Long John Silver"!

How are you? Nice to see you.

I've got a lousy cold.
How was Mexico?

Very interesting. You
should've been there.

Step into the VIP
vehicle. Rest your bones.

I never walk when I can ride.

What are you doing dressed
up? You didn't do that for me?



No, I didn't. As
a matter of fact...

Freddy, take me and my
man around the corner.

I had to go to a
bank to get a loan.

I get all dressed up, I walk into a liquor
store somebody throws their hands up.

The cat wouldn't give me a
dime, man. I hope you're hungry.

Noah's gonna play
Little League this year?

Oh, yeah. No way out of it.

That's cool. No, thanks.

Let me see here now.

My friend Long John
Silver's been down in Mexico

eating all the chili
rellenos, so we'll skip that.

You probably had
a little identity crisis.

Let me see could I
shape up your personality

with a little fried
chicken, watermelon?

There's no grits here.
Do you have grits?

Do you know what grits
are? What the hell are grits?

(both laugh)

I don't eat that.
I'm from the islands.

If it ain't shrimp
and rice, forget it.

Just give me a ham and
cheese on rye and a Coke.

Cancel the grits and
all that other stuff.

Hey, Tony,

remember a girl
named Virginia Marriott?

You put her in the
slammer once for selling.

I got it, I remember.

A parole officer only gets
a few winners in his life.

She was one. When I got her,

she'd been a junkie and
a hooker for seven years,

since she was 15.

When I signed her
off she was clean.

Six months ago, they
fished her out of the harbor.

She'd been dead three days.

I remember that... a
suicide. It was the same girl.

No... I didn't
believe that then,

when I saw her in
Mexico I knew I was right.

You saw her in Mexico?

When they pulled the
girl's body out of the water,

there was no ID on the body,

so they sent a full set of
her prints to Washington.

They got back a positive make.

That positive make was phony.

I'd say mistaken,

but Washington doesn't make
mistakes with a full set of prints.

Virginia Marriott is not dead.

When I saw her in Mexico City

she was this close
to me. I spoke to her.

She almost answered me, but
she got scared and ran away.

I couldn't catch her because
of this bad leg of mine.

Oy. You know, you're opening up

a whole can of bananas
with something like this.

We're talking about the police
department, talking about Shiller,

you're talking about
the Feds, Washington.

What are you trying to tell me?

I'm trying to tell you
that's a whole house awry.

I'm trying to tell you that...

I'm gonna eat this ham on rye,

and get to Shiller and find
out who's dead, who's alive...

and whose
fingerprints are whose.

You want another drink?

No. I gotta get home
and see the family.

Okay. I'm coming
over Sunday, right?

You bet.

Shrimp and rice.

You got it.

Okay.

(tires squeal)

(dull thud)

(woman screams)

John? John!

John... oh, my God.
Back off, back away,

give him a little air, please.

Please back up.
Move out of the way!

Get an ambulance
here, right away.

John...

I'm here. It's me,
Tony. I'm right here.

Where? Tell me
where. Oh, my God.

Tony?

I'm right here. It's okay.

Got an ambulance coming.
Take it easy, don't try to do nothing.

Tony, oh man... My
kids... in the bags

I got presents for
all three of them.

Okay... okay.

Tony? I'm right here, John.

I'm holding you, John.

My wife... give her
the parking ticket...

(gasps) for the car.

Tony? Stay here, John.
Hang on, stay here.

Tony...? I'm right
here. stay here, John.

Ain't... ain't that something?

Stay here, John...
(siren blares)

Shiller: Baretta, I'm
getting sick and tired of this.

You've been in here
10 minutes telling me

you are sure of things
that you can't be sure of.

I'm sorry Shockley is
dead. He was a good man,

and I know he was
a friend of yours,

but he was a parole officer.

There could be dozens of people who
hated his guts, and might try to kill him.

Maybe one of them did it.

Let me find out who did.

No, I'm not going to let you find
out. You're too close to the case.

I already told you that. I'm
assigning someone else.

Boss, you know me.

If I say I can do my job,
that means I can do my job.

Nobody is questioning
whether you can do your job.

I've gotta reopen the
Marriott case to find out.

Why? He said she's
still alive, that's why.

Fingerprints went
to Washington DC.

They came back and
said it was Virginia Marriott.

They say she's dead.
You're trying to tell me

someone in this department
phonied the report.

Let me find out I'm wrong, then.

You're a fanatic, you know that?

You get on something
can't get off it, can you?

What would you do
if he was your friend?

I came back from
seeing his wife and kids.

I guess I'd do the same
thing you're trying to do.

Do you hear these
pipes in here, Billy?

One of these days
this whole toilet

is gonna float right
out of the hotel.

What do you expect
for $90 a month?

You got hot water, don't you?

I don't need hot water in
the toilet, I need it in the sink.

Me and Fred are
gonna pack. Right, Fred?

Fred: Freeze!

Billy: So this is
Virginia Marriott?

Yeah, that's her. I gotta
go see her crazy mother.

Boy, she hates cops.

I remember when I was
busting her daughter.

No such thing as a
"good cop," "bad cop."

She won't talk to you, let
you near the door, nothing.

I'd love to be able to tell her

that I think her
daughter might be alive.

So? Why don't you?

I can't.

If she even smells
cop, I'm dead.

Hi, partner. Hello.

Her daughter was in an
accident a couple of years ago.

Got her leg broke
in three places.

If I can find out where
that body is buried

and have it exhumed,

I can find out who
died in the first place.

Tony, if they
killed your friend,

because he spotted this woman,

do you know what's
going to happen to you,

now they know you
talked to him at the airport?

Ain't nothing gonna
happen to me.

"Lightfoot Louie" is gonna
stay one step ahead all the way.

Do you know what's
going to happen to you

if you don't get
that toilet fixed? No.

Your friend's gonna
drown, that's what.

I'll call the plumber.

Call a plumber,
or get a rowboat.

(country accent)
Excuse me, ma'am.

(yodels softly)

(doorbell rings)

Well, hello. How do, ma'am?

Mrs. Marriott? Yeah.

I'm Jimmy Lee Peterson
from Lubbock, Texas.

Could I just borrow a
minute of your time, please?

Yeah, you come on in.

Thank you very
kindly, very kindly.

This is a most gracious
place you have here.

"A most gracious
place"... I like that.

Yes, ma'am.

You want a drink?
No thank you, ma'am.

What's your pleasure?

Well, I'm looking for
your daughter, Virginia.

My daughter?

Yes, ma'am.

She's dead. You sure
you don't want that drink?

I'm very sorry,
ma'am. No, thank you.

Yeah. May I sit?

Oh yeah. Yeah.

She drowned six months ago.

You know what they told me?

They told me it was suicide,
but I don't believe that.

Virginia was a happy
girl. Boy, I taught her that.

Lord, Lord.

It's a dirty rotten
world, you know that?

Yes, ma'am.

It is a dirty, rotten world.

It purely is, ma'am.
Yes, indeed.

Now what did you say
your name was again?

Jimmy Lee Peterson?

Peterson. Lubbock,
Texas. Yes, ma'am.

I don't remember Virginia
mentioning your name.

You see, it was about
a year ago... Yeah?

We were together
for about two weeks,

and maybe she didn't
want Mama to know

that she was getting
ready to go out

on the rodeo circuit with me.

The rodeo circuit? Yes, ma'am.

I don't think she
was too hot on you

or she would have
mentioned you to me.

Maybe she was afraid
that ol' Jimmy Lee

was gonna get a
little involved here.

With all due respect,
it's awful easy to see

where Virginia
got her looks from.

It doesn't look like
you gave 'em all away.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yes, ma'am.

That's nice, that rodeo talk.

You know what? Yes, ma'am?

That is a nice
shirt you have on,

and that is nice embroidery.

Ma'am, there's
something I'd like to ask...

Is that silk? That
is a nice shirt.

A blue shirt. Would
you sit for a moment?

I like it.

Would please tell me
where the gravesite is?

Why?

I'd like to just to
stroll quietly by

and pay my respects
with a small bouquet.

She is right next to you.

I beg your pardon? Over there.

Oh.

Virginia, remember
Jimmy Lee Peterson?

I talk to her every day.

Virginia, you want to say
hello to Jimmy Lee Peterson?

You remember Jimmy
Lee, Virginia, darlin'.

I'm very sorry,
ma'am. I'm truly sorry.

No, stay here. You can't
leave. Say hello to Virginia.

He's inside now. Stand by.

Excuse me, this is Ed
Borgue's apartment?

Woman: It sure is.

Come on, I'll help you find him.

We'll be right back.

Tony: You walk like a dancer.

I am.

Your toes turn
out, right? They do.

You're a pretty one. Thank you.

Oh, there he is. Wait a minute.

Freeze. Hey, Tony.

Glad to see you, partner.

Darlin', thank you very much.

I'll see you in a little while.

You sure better.

I should have worn
a suit here, huh?

Why don't you tell
somebody where you are?

Last thing I heard
was Puerto Rico.

I just got back. I
was gonna call you.

I was talking about you
two days ago. Ask Mary.

Chicks... they're never
around when you need 'em.

Jaime, Quatro Equis.
"Hay-me, Quatro Eek-is"?

(laughs)

So you were talking
about me, huh?

Well, I was...

Were you talking
to her about me?

I was telling my neighbors,

about some of our
wild radio car stories.

Those were great days, huh?

Yeah.

I don't end up missing
the department.

It don't look like retirement

is going too hard on you here.

20 years... one day I look up

and my boss is 10
years younger than I am.

That's it.

Now you got the chicks 10
years younger than you, huh?

Yeah.

Hey, salud. Salud.

I want you to meet Mary.

Listen, I got a little business.

You had enough
time to drop by here.

You're the business.

I gotta ask you a
couple of questions.

Okay, go ahead.

Can we go in the
toilet, or something?

With these guitars
and everything here...

We'll step outside. How's that?

Sure.

Mamma mia.

Boy, boy, boy.
Ain't this something?

Anyway, here...

do you recognize this thing?

I was in charge of the
floater squad for two years.

That's a busy harbor.

I know, but that's
your signature, right?

Yeah, gotta be.
What's your problem?

This card says that
Virginia Marriott's dead,

but somebody saw her
alive a couple of days ago

in Mexico City. Who?

Somebody who
knew her pretty well.

Her parole officer.

The guy had to be
wrong. Did he talk to her?

Yeah, a little bit. Then she
got scared and ran away.

But you can't fake fingerprints.

The Bureau in Washington
doesn't make mistakes...

not when you
send them a full set.

I know that. I got this figured.

Suppose this girl,

she gets next to
somebody in your squad.

He gives her a blank
card, she puts prints on it,

they both lay low for a while,

they wait for the right
stiff to come along,

they shoot the card in,

it goes to Washington and
comes back with a positive make.

Tony, why the hell
would anyone do that for?

You tell me.

You're not making any sense.

Well, there's
another part to it.

The parole officer was
one of my best friends,

John Shockley.

Somebody killed
him this morning.

The last thing he told me

was that he saw this
girl alive in Mexico City.

Maybe she made a
phone call from down there

and fingered him.

Well, it could shake
down that way.

It could happen, it's wild,

but if the chick
wanted bad enough

to read her name in the obits,

it could go down that way.

Wait a minute. It's
easier than that.

Everybody's got a
dentist. Dig up the body,

check it against Virginia
what's-her-name's dental records,

and you'll have the answer.

I already thought of that.

But the body's in a
flower pot on a coffee table

in her crazy mother's apartment.

Tony, you want some advice?

Yeah. I know.

You're chasing ghosts,
old buddy. I'd file it.

I think you're right.

I'll take a cab on
the whole thing.

(Spanish guitar music plays)

Come on, have
some chili rellenos.

I'm gonna wrap this whole
thing up. Thanks, partner.

Do you still live in that hotel?

Yeah. You got something nice
here. How much does it set you back?

I got a deal going for me. One of my
cousins is into property management.

He set it up for me. Maybe he
could set something up for you.

No, thanks. Me and Fred
would go crazy in a place like this.

Eddie, you're doing all right.

It's good to see
you, Tony. You too.

Don't be a stranger
now. I'll be around.

He's leaving now. Let's get him.

(grunts)

That was to get your attention.

(gasping)

You got it.

On your feet.

What do you want? Are you
sure you got the right guy?

My name is Billy Greenleaf.
Your name is Baretta.

All you got to do is answer a
simple question and walk out of here.

Why did you reopen
the Marriott case?

How do you know it was reopened?

Don't ask questions.
We'll do that.

Now why did you
reopen the Marriott case?

Well, see...

I never believed that
suicide thing in the first place.

I didn't want the case closed.

I fought to keep it open, but
they went ahead and closed it.

And I waited until I had some
time and I asked the boss,

and I got it reopened 'cause I
never believed it and that's the truth.

You keep hitting me and
I'm telling you the truth.

Tie him up.

There are reasons... Huh?

Real reasons and real
evidence why a case is reopened.

(grunts)

Now you better
come up with the truth,

'cause I can't go back to
the people that hired me

and tell them you
decided not to cooperate.

They wouldn't
understand that at all.

Okay, I'm gonna tell ya.

A very good friend of mine,

John, was her parole officer.

He came back from Mexico and
told me he saw her down there alive,

I believe him...
and he got killed.

So I reopened the case
and I'm gonna find out why.

That's pretty lame, man.

You can't even come
up with a good lie.

Wait a minute, partner.

We're in trouble, 'cause
I'm telling you the truth.

Look...

when I report back, my client
wants to know one of two things...

The answer to the
question or that you're dead.

I'd rather have the
answer to the question...

but it's your ballgame.

I'm telling you, I swear to you.

If you don't believe it, that
it really is... I gotta big...

Hi, sweetface.

Well, I'd like to say
hello to all of you.

I thought you would.

What are you drinking?

He knows.

Hey, "He knows," give
the lady what she's drinking.

You got it.

Just hanging around, or are
you looking for a little action?

Well, I ain't never
just hanging around.

It depends on the
price and the action,

and I got some sore ribs there and
you're making 'em feel better all the time.

I'll make 'em feel much better.

And about the price... Yeah?

Let's not discuss that until we
know each other a little better, huh?

I think I'm falling in love.

Hey. What?

I'm lying to you.

About what? I can't afford you.

That's a shame.

Maybe I can afford you if
you hang around a while.

Yeah, hey, Sarge...
This is Baretta.

Is Andy Scanlon around there?

Okay.

Hey, stringbean! Do
me a favor, will you?

Go through the files. See what you
can find on a turkey named Daniel Treach.

He lives at 2000
North Commonwealth.

Yeah.

All right, I'll check
with you later.

Adios.

Hey, mama! Can I help you?

Yeah, dig it!

I come here to give an ace
massage to a kitty named Treach.

You aren't Freddy.

No, see, Freddy's
my brother-in-law

and he's got a 1963 Chevy
but it's all broke down.

He sent me to do the gig on
account I'm better in the first place.

See, you're a little tense
up there in your trapezius,

but your pectoralis major
is cool, mama. You dig?

Well, maybe you
better go up to 312

and take care of
Mr. Treach's pectoralis major.

All reet! But see, don't
get tense on account

of in this city it's cool
for the opposite sex

to give the opposite
sex a massage.

So, when I get him straight, I'm gonna
come back here and cool you out, mama.

♪ Eh, eh, eh, uh, uh... ♪

Later, baby.

(rings)

(knocking)

Thanks, Rosie.

Who is it?

Yes, Freddie, my
brother-in-law, he can't make it,

so I come to give
you an ace massage.

Yes, sir. Yeah, come on in.

My name's Willie.

Freddie's car broke
down, do you understand?

But it don't make no difference,

'cause I taught Freddie
everything he knows.

Yes, sir, you see, I got my
hands insured for $100,000.

When I give you a massage,

it's right, know
what I'm saying?

I'm gonna make you
feel like a million dollars!

I get through with you,

you're gonna sleep like
a baby, you understand?

Lay all them soft
parts right up here.

Yes, sir.

A little feel now, uh-huh.

Slip up a little bit further.
There you go now.

Uh-huh. Put your
arms right up there.

That's beautiful. Let
me just feel it now.

I got it now. I'm holding
on to it, yes. Oh, man.

Baretta: Let's see here.

When I get through with you,

you're gonna think you found
a little piece of heaven, sir.

Just let me get this strap...

Hey, what the hell you doing?!

Yeah.

Baretta, that thing in the
warehouse... it was just a bluff.

I wouldn't have used that gun,
that's the truth, it was just a bluff!

My father always said "Don't ever take
out a piece unless you're gonna use it,

and don't stop using it until the job is
done!" So, you're wrong on both counts.

Now, who hired you?

I can't tell you that. My life
wouldn't be worth a nickel.

You rummy! What do you
think your life is worth now?

All right...

we're gonna have a
little burial at sea here.

We're gonna pretend that
you're a big walrus, see,

and just like the Navy, we're
gonna bury you in the ocean.

(screaming)

Tell me who hired you!

(screaming)

Brazil! Brazil hired me!

Brazil... Carl Brazil did it!

You mean the creep that
runs the joint with the broads?

Yeah! Yeah, it's him!

(heavy breathing)

Hi, I'm Chu Chu Dominguez.

Cool it, Chu Chu.

What are you doing?

Getting into it.

Yeah, you sure are.

I'm a boxer...

but I don't exercise. I eat 200 or
300 pounds of chi-chi beans a day.

Whew!

You want to give Chu
Chu a little massage?

Hey, man, I'd love to,

but I got to sit here
and mind the store.

Oh.

Hey, you got any
money, "Chu Chu Beans"?

Sure, I won my
last fight last night.

How much you want?

$25.

You like Mexicans?

Hey, I like anybody.

I used to be a Mexican, now
I'm a Chicano. Viva la raza!

Hey, "Zapata," let's
find you a woman.

Maybe two, huh? Mmmm.

Ooh, que mucho.

You want me to get in the water?

No, man, you only
do that with me.

Oh. Okay, mermaids,
out of the water.

Pick one.

Que bueno.

Don't they talk?

Sure they talk. Pick one.

You better pick one.
I'm gonna be here all day.

Kim... this here's Kim.

You like chi-chi beans?
I love chi-chi beans.

"Chi-chi Beans," there's
a closet over there.

Yeah.

Listen, Kim, I was lying to
you about them chi-chi beans.

You a cop? No, no, no, no.

I'm a guy with a problem
that needs a favor.

Listen, there's a couple
of guys looking for me.

You want to tell me the
back way out of here?

End of the hall, turn right,

down the stairs.

Chi chi, there's...
No, no, don't worry.

I didn't hear nothing.

Listen... You take care, now.

Yeah... One of these days.

(buzzes)

Now, don't get tense.

Just keep your hands
right where they are.

Don't push no buttons.

Stay nice and loose.

Who the hell are you?

I'm the guy you had worked over.

I'm Baretta.

Hey, come on, I don't know
what you're talking about.

I don't want to waste no
time with that penny-ante stuff.

I came here to
make a deal with you.

I don't make deals with cops.

You ain't got a lot
of choice, partner.

You already dealt with me your way...
now you're gonna deal with me my way,

if you want the information.

You want to know why
I'm looking for a girl, right?

I want to know why
you want to know.

Stay loose.

Now...

it's your move.

Okay, she worked for me.

I use her to get my
money from here to there.

She was my bag woman.

At the time she disappeared
she was carrying 600 grand.

That's a lot to
lose, even for me.

When she turned
up dead in the harbor,

well, I spent a lot of time and
money trying to find out who killed her.

Nothing.

Nothing till I heard
you'd reopened the case.

Now...

you tell me why.

I already gave your gorillas part of
it. Now I'm gonna give it all to you.

She's alive.

She's in Mexico.

A friend of mine
who told me about it...

He died because of that.

She worked some kind of
fingerprint deal on the ID card,

and I think I know
who her connection is.

Now you got it all.

Baretta? Yeah?

It's worth 50 grand to me
to know where my money is.

I don't want none
of your money, pal.

I don't like the
way you make it.

Our little deal...
That's finished now.

Next time you see me, I'm a cop.

And you know what you are.

Steve?

I want the name of the guy who
was in charge of the floater squad

that day Virginia
popped up in the drink.

And I want it fast!

Hello, operator? I've been trying to
make this call since 8:00 this morning.

Yeah, well, I wish you would.

It's very important.

Thank you. (doorbell rings)

Who is it?

Eddie, it's me, Tony Baretta.

Yeah, Ton...

What happened to
you? You look beat.

Yeah, well, maybe
Virginia Marriott

has been walking all over
me for a couple of days.

What, is that some kind of
bad joke? You want a drink...?

That's what that
is... That's a bad joke,

'cause I ain't laughing. That's
how you know it's a bad joke.

I'll tell you somebody else
who ain't laughing, Eddie...

Carl Brazil ain't laughing.

I figured you
ought to know that.

I ought to know it? Yeah.

(ice clinks)

Let's skip the bull, huh, Tony?

I was a cop too long
and I know you too well.

You're over here because you
think I phonied that death certificate.

I don't think it, I know it.

I'm not hearing this.

I'm really not hearing this.

We used to be friends, buddies.

At least I thought we were.

John was my friend.

He's dead now,

and you're living in a
$1250-a-month apartment,

on five times your
retirement pay!

Yeah, I've been doing
a little checking, Eddie.

Why don't you read me the rights
and forget you ever knew me?!

I ain't gonna do
that! I ain't no dummy!

You pulled it off,
man! You're home free!

Sweet and clean!

Let me tell you something...
anybody could have faked those prints,

if they were faked. You're
crazy, Tony, you always were.

Sure I am... "always was
crazy." What do I care anyway?

It was dirty money in
the first place, right?

You want to live "happily
ever after" in Mexico, go ahead!

Except for one thing.

I made a deal on your life.

I sold you to Carl Brazil.

You didn't make no deal with Carl
Brazil, 'cause you were never that kind!

No, not Tony, never. Well,
live and learn! I sold you...

for a little lady
and three kids,

whose old man got squashed
out there on the cement

and didn't leave 'em 10 cents.
I'm gonna leave them a bundle,

and it's gonna come
out of your hide, man.

You're a corpse.

Take it to the bank
and collect interest on it.

(phone ringing)

PA system: Announcing
the departure of Flight 402...

Seat number 12.

Enjoy Mexico.
Have a nice flight, sir.

Thank you.

Yeah, man, how much
is a ticket to Matamoros?

Matamoros, Mexico... Mmmm.

$275, round trip.

Are we talking
about Tourist, "Jim"?

Tourist. That's cool.

One ticket to
Matamoros, round trip.

The name is Ziggy Rainbow.

Ziggy Rainbow?

Yeah.

(singing in Spanish)

Salud... dinero...

and tiempo para gastarlo!

Okay.

I love you. I love you, baby.

(singing continues)

(singing stops)

(dog barking)

Man: Mi camion!

Párate! Párate, ladron! Idiota!

(horn honks)

(horse neighs)

Rosita!

Es fria, huh? Es mucha fria.

This is Ed... Rosita. Hi.

Todo esta lista? Sí, señora.

Everything's all
packed, ready to go.

Tell her to start
bringing it out.

Llevalo en el carro.
I got it. Sí, señora.

Honey, we don't have
to go now, do we?

Why don't we get the money? Then
we don't have to worry about anything.

I don't want to worry about
anything until we're far enough away.

Is that all you're thinking
about is the money?

You know what
I'm thinking about.

(laughs)

Tell your girl when she loads
the car to watch out for that truck,

because I'm still
worried about it.

Okay.

All right? Yeah, mm-hmm.

(distant car engine)

Rosita: Señora!

Wait here, baby.

(gunshot)

Hey, it's me again! Let's talk.

(gunshot)

(gunshots)

(tire pops)

(engine sputtering)

(gunshots)

(gunshot)

Hey, Eddie!

What are you gonna do? You
gonna shoot it out with me?

What about the girl?
What if she takes one?

If you love her, you
owe her better than that.

I don't care if it's Mexico or where
it is, you're coming back with me.

You got dues to pay!

What are we gonna do, Eddie?

Lookit, baby. If he takes me, I'm
going back to the States for life.

Eddie?

(gunshots)

(gunshot)

(gunshot)

Why?

Eddie's dead and
John's dead, too.

I don't know why.

(toilet flushing)

Uh-oh.

Uh-oh! Abandon ship, man!

(groans)

I got some newspapers.

Oh, man. Oh, Jeez.

Where's that rummy plumber now?!

I called. He should have
been here before now.

Abandon ship!

Look at that...
My knee is all wet.

Made me wear my best suit, dragging
me over to that crazy lady's house.

How'd I know she
was gonna be sane?

She was crazy both times
I went over there before.

I needed you for a bodyguard.

Oh, man, I'll never get
over that look on her face,

when you told her her
daughter was still alive.

Well, I guess it's a lot
better to visit your daughter

in a jailhouse than talk
to her in a flowerpot.

What's her daughter
gonna do now?

She's gonna do fine, now
that she turned state's evidence.

She should've done it
before John got it, though.

She blew the whistle on Brazil.

He's gonna do
a lot of hard time,

and you know
that don't hurt a bit.

Fred? (squawks)

You nut, man! Come here!

Get out of that water!

Come here to me, you
crazy bird. Look at that.

You put a bird in the Merchants,

and what does he do? He
hangs around in the water.

He thinks he's a duck. Duck?

(Fred quacks)

Ow, tough guy!

Give me some of
that back, you killer.

Do the crazy bird.
Do the crazy bird.

Freeze!
