Hawaii Five-O (1968–1980): Season 11, Episode 2 - Horoscope for Murder - full transcript

May I remind you that there's
been a murder committed.

Now, you sent me a note telling
me where and when it would happen.

Perhaps you'd like to
consult with your lawyer.

I'm sure he'll tell you that the
stars do not a defense make.

She has no right to
stick her nose into my life.

And neither do you.

Who was your client?

I'm afraid I can't reveal that,
Agnes. It wouldn't be ethical.

Well, you'd better reveal it,
and fast, and to the police.

He's has insurmountable
problems. He's a killer.

What did she tell you
about the stabbings?



She called the last one.

McGARRETT: What about the
victims? Anything in common?

Nothing apparent, Steve.

A taxi driver, a cocktail waitress,
a retired insurance executive

and now State
Senator Irwin Ramsey.

All different professions.
All different walks of life.

Duke, what did
you find at the lab?

Very little. H.P.D. hasn't
turned up a weapon yet.

Ramsey was killed, like the others,
with a long rounded narrow blade.

- Ice pick?
- No.

The most likely candidate
is a homemade knife.

Some folks call it an
Arkansas toothpick.

Some toothpick.

Hello. My name is Agnes duBois.



- May I help you?
- Is this Mr. McGarrett's office?

- Hawaii Five-0?
- Yes.

May I speak to him?

May I ask the nature
of your business?

Murder.

Yes, Lani. Who?

Oh.

Send her in.

Hello. I'm Agnes duBois.

- Miss duBois, won't you sit down.
- Thank you.

Well,

Mr. McGarrett, gentlemen,

I don't usually like to get
involved with the police,

but, uh, this case...

Well, I've been
doing some research.

Well, I'm considered to be
among the top in my profession.

Of course, I'm going to be
labeled strange coming here.

Why don't you tell
us what you know.

Mr. McGarrett,

how do you feel about astrology?

Well, I haven't
thought about it much,

but, uh, I understand
many people rely on it.

Yeah, that's what I like.
A nice evasive answer.

Miss duBois, uh,

let's stop right here.

You asked me a question, I
gave you an honest answer,

so let's dispense with the
personal comments, huh?

Well, you see, I've been doing
some research for a new book.

Astrology And The Criminal Mind.

Well, let me show
you what I've found out.

Um...

You can keep those.
They're duplicates.

All right. Uh...

You got in here with
the magic word, murder.

Now would you like to
tell us what you know?

I've researched the stabbings.

Those charts are the natal
horoscopes for each of the victims.

You've found some
astrological, uh, connection?

Mars square Uranus.

Miss duBois, I don't know
what you're talking about.

So if you will excuse us, we
have some pressing business

we have to attend to.

Oh, well at least now
you're not being polite.

No, Mars square
Uranus simply means

that Mars was 90 degrees
from Uranus at the time of birth.

What does that have
to do with the murders?

Well, if it had occurred
in one or two of the charts,

that could be coincidence,
but it's in all four.

Are you telling us
that all of the victims

were born under the
same astrological sign?

No, they weren't, and
that's what's so remarkable.

Each aspect reoccurs on
different days in different years.

And yet, it appears in
each of the victim's charts.

- Then what does, uh, Mars...
- Square Uranus.

Square Uranus mean?

Uh, an explosive temper.

All of the victims had,
uh, explosive tempers?

Yes. DANNY: And the killer?

- Who might that be?
- I haven't the foggiest.

Oh. Uh...

In your professional opinion
will there be another killing?

Obviously.

When?

At the tone the time will
be 1 1:23 and 30 seconds.

I'll let you know later.

Gentlemen, I've clearly
taken enough of your time.

Miss duBois, uh, why did you
come here instead of going to H.P.D.?

Because the case is now
under your jurisdiction.

How did you know that?

Before I came, I checked
the moon's position.

It showed me that a higher
authority would take over.

McGARRETT: Oh,
ding-a-ling. Ding-a-ling.

A case like this brings
them all out of the woodwork.

I think we should
postpone the investigation

until the moon
moves into Aquarius.

The way I read
the planets, Danno,

we don't start from
Mars square Uranus,

we start from

square one.

- Oh, Mrs. Wong.
- I'm early.

No problem. Uh, Miss
duBois is with a client.

But she won't be
long. Come on in.

- What's your sign?
- Huh?

Oh, I said, what's your sign?

Lady, I don't believe
in any of that garbage.

I'm just waiting
for my girlfriend.

It's the same old thing.

Men?

Let's take a look at this year's
progression of the planets.

Excuse me.

Five-0.

You knew Miss Kane.

Did you ever see any of
these three people with her?

Mrs. Ramsey, do you
recognize any of these people?

The other victims?
McGARRETT: Yes.

Um, who's this one?

That's Miss Kane. The waitress.

He really would've
liked to have known her.

I'm just sick and
tired of being hurt.

I mean, the past few years
have been a nightmare.

It doesn't matter if
he's rich or he's poor.

One man didn't even tell me
he had a wife and a mistress.

Cindy, I told you your
progressed Saturn of limitations

is still afflicting Venus
of romance in your chart.

Well, how much
longer can this go on?

Six months.

Patience?

I'm afraid so.

Agnes, I have Rick
Makulu's birth data.

- Is that the man you came in with?
- Yeah.

I think he's different
from the others.

Could you compare
his planets to my chart?

- Cindy...
- Please.

He doesn't believe in astrology
but he's been out of work for months.

Okay, maybe he's
not right for me now,

but if I can only get
him to talk to you.

He needs encouragement.

Very well. Give
me the information.

What is his birth date and the time?
And do you know where he was born?

Here. I wrote it down for you.

With the astral
adversity you're facing,

I don't expect you to
meet the right man now.

I understand.

Don't get your
hopes up too high.

- I'll call you when the chart's ready.
- Okay.

Mel.

Oh!

Oh, it's great to see
you. It's been a while.

Well, it's nice to
see you, Cindy.

Uh, Mel Burgess, Rick Makulu.

- Hi.
- How you doing?

Mel's an astrologer.

So who isn't?

I take it you don't share Cindy's
enthusiasm for the subject.

Oh, sure he's interested.

And he's a fast study.
Aren't you, Rick?

If you say so. Come
on, Cindy, let's go.

Mel. I didn't expect to see you.

- I didn't think we were even talking.
- Well, why not?

That paper you gave in San
Francisco, it was absolutely brilliant.

Well, thank you.

Doesn't it totally contradict
what you said at the convention?

I'll publicly recant
at the next meeting.

Besides, Agnes,
the stars are my life.

Now, how could I possibly be angry
with anyone who feels the same way

and as beautiful as you.

Mel, you want
something. What is it?

Well, I have a client.

And I'm, uh...
I'm very disturbed

because his natal T-square has
been activated by the major planets.

I'd like you to take a look at
this and see what you think.

What do you want me to check?

Well, it seems there are some
very, very deep emotional problems.

Well, you know I like to
work from my own chart.

I'll just copy down
the information.

Where was this,
uh, Scorpio born?

Honolulu.

Say, I bumped into
Cindy Rawlins outside.

Is this her, um... Her
latest one-night stand?

Makulu.

Uh-uh-uh, Mel. Ethics.

Look, I gotta run. Uh, if you need
anything, you call me. All right?

- It was very nice to see you.
- Well, nice seeing you too.

Bye. AGNES: Bye-bye.

Martha, type and file this
information for me, would you?

- There's something I have to do.
- Mm-hm.

Lani. Any messages? Thank you.

- Steve.
- Yeah, Danno?

The bartender didn't recognize
any of the other victims.

I also talked to her family and
friends and it's the same. No leads.

Duke, what've you got?

The cab driver had a call
at the senator's high-rise

about four weeks ago.

A week before he was murdered.

The dispatcher doesn't know
if it was for the senator or not.

Hmm. I don't have much, either.

The senator and his wife
were having marital problems.

She says the waitress
would've appealed to him though.

No definite confirmation
that they knew each other.

Remember that dingy
astrologer? Agnes duBois.

Yeah. What about her?

Well, for what it's worth, she
called it right about Miss Kane.

People at the bar said she
did have a violent temper.

The dispatcher said the cab
driver could really throw a tantrum.

You know something?

Mrs. Ramsey said the senator
was known for his explosive temper.

Hmm.

- Steve?
- Yes, Lani?

- This just came by messenger.
McGARRETT: Oh, thank you.

It's from the lovely and
omniscient Agnes duBois.

"Mr. McGarrett,
expect the next murder

to occur Sunday,
between 4:30 and 5,

when the moon is in an opposite
aspect to the Realm of Neptune."

When Duke gets back, what
do you say we get a bite?

McGARRETT: Yeah.
Good idea, Danno.

McGarrett.

When, sergeant?

Where was it?

Very well. Thank you.

Another fatal stabbing,
15 minutes ago.

That would make it
4:45. Where, Steve?

Near Sandy Beach.

It's the ocean.

The Realm of Neptune.

Maybe Agnes duBois has been
working with more than the stars.

You've been reading
my chart, Danno.

- Hello there.
- Oh.

Miss duBois.

Vegetables?

Yes. Much more
sensible than flowers.

You can feast on their beauty.

What can I do for
you, Mr. McGarrett?

You don't know?

Well, I'm an astrologer,
not a mind reader.

There's been another murder.

Oh.

I thought you'd
come to put me down.

I haven't heard any news. Where?

In the Realm of Neptune,
between 4:30 and 5.

Where have you
been this afternoon?

What sort of a question is that?

A reasonable question,
considering your note and prediction.

- Don't you think?
- Well, here we are.

Oh. You have a guest.
Uh, I'll get another glass.

None for me. Thank you.

Martha, please tell this
gentleman where I was

between 4 and 5 this afternoon.

You were here.

Working and writing, and
talking on the phone to clients.

Thank you, Martha.

I'd like a list of the people
you talked to on the telephone.

Mr. McGarrett, would
you ask a doctor or lawyer

to violate a confidential
relationship?

Miss duBois, I hope
you're not suggesting

that a fiduciary relationship exists
between an astrologer and a client.

Intelligence is what I expected
from the head of Five-0.

And instead I have a
large order of cop mentality.

If you can't see it, or feel
it, or touch it, it doesn't exist.

May I remind you there has
been a murder committed.

Now, you sent me a note telling
me where and when it would happen.

Perhaps you'd like to
consult with your lawyer.

I'm sure he'll tell you that the
stars do not a defense make.

What? Ha!

I don't believe it. You're
out of the dark ages.

You're the kind of person that if you
get bad news, you kill the messenger.

- What's your birthday, Mr...
- Please.

Please. I don't
believe in astrology.

Well, I'd like to do
your chart anyway.

You see, I don't think our
Mercury is going to make an aspect.

- That's why we can't communicate.
- Oh, we'll communicate.

Even if we have to do it in
the district attorney's office.

Very well.

I was talking to a J. William
Hayes between 4 and 5,

and Martha will give you
the telephone number.

Why did you come to
see me at the office?

It was a mistake.

I thought I had
something to offer.

What, a couple of obscure
astrological phrases?

I presumed you could grasp them.

Perhaps they escaped
my cop mentality.

Ah, low blow, low
blow. I'm sorry.

You see, the fact is the
killer had to have done a chart

on each of the murders.
See, he knows about astrology.

The Mars-Uranus aspect
wasn't the only factor.

See, each of the murders

occurred when the transiting
Moon held a negative aspect

to the victim's natal Pluto.

And that happens for one
hour, three times a month.

What in God's name
does that mean?

It means that the killer
was both judge and jury.

He had to work out the time
of each murder very carefully.

How many people on the
island would know how to do that?

Well, it's hard to say. I mean, there's
tremendous interest in this subject.

Well, how many other
professionals live here?

Four, five.

How did you predict the day
and the time of that latest killing?

Horary astrology.

Horary?

It comes from the Latin
hora, meaning hour.

It enables me to answer a specific
question asked at a given moment.

You asked me when
the murders took place.

I then made a chart
based on that exact time.

It happened to be
11:23 and 30 seconds.

I don't suppose you
could, uh, profile the killer?

- Yes, if you were interested.
- I'm interested.

Your carrots.

Oh, Mr. McGarrett,
one other thing.

Did all the victims
have explosive tempers?

We confirmed three.

Would you check into the fourth?

I think you'll find
that he had one too.

The latest victim was Henry
Kai. A lifeguard. 27 years old.

Lived alone, but very
popular. Lots of friends.

Any connection with
the other victims?

Nothing I could find, Steve.

No starry shortcuts?

I'm afraid we're gonna have
to rely on such mundane things

as eyewitnesses, lab tests,
interrogations, and deduction.

Not whether the Moon
was in the third house.

Too bad. What do
you make of it, Steve?

Well, there has to be a pattern.

Duke, re-examine the
backgrounds of all the victims.

Tomorrow, Danno,
you and I are gonna

check the handful
of professionals

Miss duBois told us about,
including the dear lady herself.

Come on, Danno,
let's play handball.

You're on.

I have a right to privacy.

I don't need you
nosing around in my life.

What makes you think that
I'm invading your privacy?

You're doing my chart.

Well, why worry? You don't
believe it works anyway.

She had no right to
stick her nose into my life.

And neither do you.

Well, she only wants to know if
you're going to be good for each other.

I'll decide if we're
good for each other.

You stay out of it.

Miss duBois lectures
here once or twice a year.

Always a turn-away crowd.

McGARRETT: When
was the last time?

Two days ago. She mentioned
she was trying to help you.

McGARRETT: Yeah.
- I'm sorry. It got a laugh.

McGARRETT: I can imagine.

Do you know about
the book she's writing?

- In your field, I understand.
- Yeah.

Do you think that publicity
is very important to her?

Heh. Always has been.
It brings in the clients.

And helping you solve a
case would sell a lot of books.

Yeah. What a lady.

If you'll excuse me, I
have to catch a class.

Thank you.

Mel.

I have to talk to you.

- Sure.
- Ha, ha.

Here, sit down.

Why don't you have a
regular office like, uh...

- Agnes?
- Yeah.

Yeah, well, the ambience
here is... It's a little better.

The other day outside
Agnes duBois' house,

I felt really funny seeing you.

There's no reason for you not
to consult another astrologer.

None of us are perfect.

I couldn't go to you for
a chart on another man.

Not after what we had.

I don't mind. We broke
up civilly, like two adults.

- I never wanted.
- That's in the past.

We can still be friends.

Friends. Yeah.

Agnes says I'm not good for
any man now. It's in my chart.

No comment.

So, what are you doing
here? What do you want?

I, uh, have to do
something for Rick.

Oh, the man you
were with the other day.

I really don't have
any place to turn.

You always did know what to do.

How can I help?

He needs a job, badly.

- I thought maybe one of your clients...
- Yeah, I know a lot of people.

Look, why don't you have him come
see me. I'll see what I can do, all right?

McGARRETT: I'm
looking for a Mr. Burgess.

I understand he spends
quite a lot of time around here.

Yes. I'm Burgess.

Yes, Mr. Burgess.

McGarrett, Hawaii Five-0.

- Now what did I do, heh?
- I'd like to talk to you.

- Mel, I've gotta go.
- Care to join me on the terrace?

- I'm gonna have a bite of lunch.
- Thank you.

McGARRETT: I
understand you're one of the

leading astrologers
in the islands.

Oh, someone's been very kind.

But I do believe that the
study of planetary influence

is important to
understanding ourselves.

Then you're not
connected with this place?

No, I, um... I just
come up here a lot.

What do you know
about Agnes duBois?

Well, professionally
she's quite competent.

I know nothing
about her personally.

She really did contact you,
huh? Heh, I thought it was a joke.

What did she tell you
about the stabbings?

She called the last one.

The time, the
place, and the day.

That's horary astrology.
That's predictive astrology.

It's, uh... It's almost
like fortune telling.

Totally unreliable.

What was it? Chance,
coincidence, maybe?

Well, you, yeah,
you could call it that.

Why would she risk her
reputation on something like that?

Well, there's no risk.

If she'd have been wrong,
you'd have forgotten.

But, uh, uh-uh, you're hooked.

I imagine it'll make
a dandy chapter.

You mean she's doing
all of this for her book?

Mr. McGarrett, I'm sure that
the possibility hadn't escaped you.

When I called to see
you, I didn't expect this.

I must have been
very persuasive.

Very. Very persuasive.

But you were wrong
about one thing.

What was that?

The last victim did not
have an explosive temper.

I did his chart. He had Mars
square Uranus, just like all the others.

Well, the autopsy report
showed a duodenal ulcer.

Exactly, that means that
the temper was internalized.

A little late to
prove that, isn't it?

Is the mahi-mahi fresh here?

The opakapaka and the
mahi-mahi are always fresh here.

By the way, you promised to tell
me something about the murderer.

Yes.

His age is somewhere
between 30 and 40.

- His? You mean it's a man?
- Not necessarily.

Someone who works with
their mind, not their muscles.

Someone very introspective with
painfully difficult emotional problems.

And as I said before, it is somebody
who is interested in astrology

or the occult.

And is also under a
severe emotional strain.

Maybe even a psychotic.

An awful lot of people who read
horoscopes would fit that description.

I should have done an
event chart for dinner.

An event chart?
What is an event chart?

An event chart would have told
me how frustrating and aggravating

this dinner is going to be.

Heightened only by the fact
that my escort is so attractive.

I'll take the steak,
medium-rare.

Your health.

- Are you feeling better now?
- Yes.

Tell me about the chart.

Oh, that horrible knife.

Please, just try to
concentrate on the chart.

It's mine. Someone
did my natal horoscope.

What about the chart itself? Is it
the same as you brought to my office?

Yes, it's a form that I
designed. Or it's a copy of one.

Well, who would
have access to them?

I give each of
my clients a copy.

My students can
buy them from me.

And, well, anybody could
have made a copy of it.

Anything else you can think of?

That knife is stuck in my first
house. That's my personal house.

How would you interpret that?

Well, it's clearly a threat
to keep me out of this case.

I'll need the names and addresses
of all your students and clients.

I hope you're not
gonna fight me on that.

No. No.

I'm very frightened.

Thank you.

We'll provide around the
clock protection for you.

I'll have these copied.

You're beginning to
believe what I've told you?

My only concern is for your
life, not the validity of astrology.

Here we go again.

Oh. Uh...

May I borrow some
of these books?

Please, feel free.

You claim you're guided by
certain mathematical laws, huh?

Yes, we are. Why?

Because it's just possible
someone is trying to make the facts

conform to the stars.

Steve. McGARRETT: Yeah, Duke?

I've gone over each
victim's background carefully.

The only thing
they had in common

was that they were
all Honolulu residents.

- No tourists.
- That doesn't give us much, Duke.

- Did you get the lab report, Danno?
- Yeah.

The knife is, uh, an Arkansas
Toothpick, obviously homemade.

- The lab says it matches the wounds.
- That's ghastly.

Ask H.P.D. to check out all metal
shops, suppliers, cutlery stores,

anyplace where similar pieces
of steel can be purchased.

- Right.
- Now, what about the chart?

It's a copy of one
used by Agnes duBois.

H.P.D. is checking
the photo offset houses.

That narrows it down to someone
who had access to these charts.

Maybe Agnes duBois herself.

Yeah, maybe.

But, she seemed
genuinely frightened, Danno.

You and Duke better start checking
out that list of clients and students.

See if any of them had a
relationship with the victims.

It's a long list.

McGARRETT: Well,
maybe I can cut it down.

How?

Same old way, Danno. Homework.

You sold shoes.

- What happened?
- You know the economy.

The store went out of business.

Didn't you say something about
having a job in the cane fields?

I didn't go to the
university to do sweat work.

Or to sell shoes.

I have a friend, a client,
who, um, is a travel agent,

always needs tour guides.

- Would you like me to talk to him?
- Yes.

I think I can arrange that.

How well did you know Cindy?

We were friends. That's all.

Mr. Burgess, thank you.

Uh, Danno, I want you and Duke

to cross index this, uh,
client list of Miss duBois'.

And check at the Hall of Records,
newspapers, motor vehicle bureaus.

Any place where they
have access to birth data.

The basic tools of
the astrologer's trade.

Yeah, you know, they
claim they can't make a chart

without knowing the month,
day, year and hour of birth.

You're beginning to
sound like Agnes. Heh.

Am I? By the way,
when were you born?

- What?
- When were you born?

Listen, I said, when were
you born? Hour? Month?

Steve, when this is
over, you can do my chart.

Tell me how I went wrong.

It's vitally important.
Oh, is Mr. McGarrett in?

You're supposed to
be under police guard.

- He's outside.
- Well, he's inside.

I know who the murderer is.

All right, let me guess.

Someone who works with
the mind, not the muscle, huh?

A very introspective
person, right?

No. His name and address.

Oh. So you're gonna
solve it with astrology.

I think I'll put you
on the payroll.

You are so exasperating.

A client came to me and asked
me to do the chart of a friend.

Well, later this friend
came storming into my office

and practically threatened
me if I went ahead with it.

Why didn't you
tell me this before?

I don't know. I
didn't think about it.

But then, with all that
business with the knife,

and then you
investigating the clients...

Miss duBois, exactly
what did you find out?

In laymen's terms.

He has such a
badly afflicted chart

that the eclipse on
the 15th of last month

had to have triggered violence.

God, is that your evidence?

His planets are in the classic
configuration of the mass murderer.

But most important, the
position of these planets

connect to each one
of the victim's charts.

And that, Mr. McGarrett, in plain
English, is a fated connection.

Very well. Who is it?

Rick Makulu.

- How long has Makulu been dead?
- An hour, maybe.

Looks like your case is over.

- Oh. You think it was suicide?
- Don't you?

I don't see any
signs of a struggle.

The murderer could
have cleaned it up.

True. DANNY: Steve.

Charts on the five
stabbing victims.

I guess these others
were potential victims.

Yeah. Miss duBois is still outside.
Ask her to come in, will you, Danno?

Sure. DUKE: Steve.

- Yeah?
- Look at this.

Names, addresses, birthdays.

These are copies
of drivers' licenses

from the Department
of Motor Vehicle files.

He's dead. I can't believe it.

Would you take a look
at these charts, please?

He knew a lot
more than I realized.

All the victims and some others.

All Mars square Uranus.

Mr. Williams said that
Mr. Makulu may have killed himself.

What do you say?

It's very difficult for an
astrologer to predict death.

Danger or a dramatic change
in a person's life, maybe.

Rick Makulu was not suicidal.

Which one of your clients asked
you to do Makulu's horoscope?

Cindy Rawlins.

Do we have anything on her?

She's a client who works for
the Department of Motor Vehicles.

I was on my way there
when this call came in.

Pick her up. I
want to talk to her.

You don't think she
could have handled this?

I doubt it. Not by herself.

McGARRETT: Something's
bothering me, Danno.

If we accept the theory that
the murderer was a psycho,

with knowledge of astrology,
driven to kill people with a certain...

What is it, planetary aspect?

Then I'd say that he had
no reason to kill himself.

Not unless he
completely flipped out.

Yeah, that's a
possibility, I guess.

Give me a rundown on
Makulu again, will you?

Not much. Uh, let's see.

He worked for a shoe store
until it folded three months ago.

He was born right here in
Honolulu on March 18th. A loner...

- Wait a minute. March 18th?
- Yeah. March 18th.

I think Miss duBois
said something different.

Uh...

She said the 30th of October.

I got this from the
Hall of Records, Steve.

She must have made a mistake.

Maybe not, Danno. Maybe not.

Yes, Lani?

- Duke is here with Miss Rawlins.
- Yes.

Send them in.

Steve, Danny, this
is Cindy Rawlins.

Miss Rawlins, how do you
do? Won't you sit down, please?

Haven't I seen you
before, Miss Rawlins?

At the planetarium?

I didn't know, uh, Rick was
dead until we were driving in.

We'd like to know where
you spent last night.

- Do I have to say?
- No.

No, you're entitled to
call a lawyer, if you wish.

- Have you read her her rights, Duke?
- Yes.

You don't think I had
anything to do with Rick's death.

Wanna talk about it?

We had a fight.

Rick needed a job, so I went to an
old boyfriend who agreed to hire him.

Then the more Rick thought about
it, the more jealous he became.

Finally, he accused me of sleeping
with Mel Burgess just to get the favor.

Yeah. Go on.

Rick had a very explosive
temper sometimes.

I left and went dancing.

I spent the night with
a man I met at a disco.

Busy, aren't you?

We'll need his name.

I don't know his name.

You don't know his name?

I can't blame Rick
for being jealous.

When did you give Makulu those files
from the Motor Vehicle Department?

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

Cindy, lying never solved
anything. Don't you know that?

You ever see these?

Yes.

You made those copies, didn't you?
- Yes.

- Why?
- For research.

What kind of research
was Makulu doing?

Rick wasn't doing research. I
gave the file to Mel Burgess.

You gave them to Mel Burgess?

Mel.

Mel. There's been...

There's been a terrible mistake.

You look worried.

I think that my secretary
mixed up your client's card

with the man's who's just
been murdered. Rick Makulu.

My client's card?

Yes, the one that
I did a reading for.

And you're the one who
never makes an error.

There's no time for sarcasm.

This is serious.

Who was your client?

I'm afraid I can't reveal that,
Agnes. It wouldn't be ethical.

Well, you'd better reveal it,
and fast, and to the police.

Oh?

Well, why?

You saw what I
saw in that chart.

He has insurmountable
problems. He's a killer.

Oh, come on.

Emotional problems, maybe.

But, uh... But a killer?

Mel, I am sure of this.

You're making a big mistake.

Did your client know that
you asked me for a reading?

He may have.

Well, maybe my secretary
didn't make a mistake.

Maybe he broke into my house
and switched the cards in my file

with Makulu's.

But then how did he know that
Makulu had Mars square Uranus?

Now, you saw the card on my
desk that day you came to my house.

Mel.

McGARRETT: Okay,
we'll take the front.

The rest of you take the sides and
the back. No one leaves. Let's go.

I'm sorry you came, Agnes.

You put Mak...

You put Makulu's name
on your card in my file.

I had to make his
death look like a suicide.

Throw McGarrett off.

Why did you kill
all those people?

Because in their charts

they had to die.

But, you, Agnes,

you didn't have to die.

You could have lived, Agnes.

The stars are
never wrong. Never.

Mel, I can help
you. I can help you.

- I understand why...
- Sure.

Oh, ow, you're hurting me.

Officer, check down below.

He's got her someplace.
I saw her purse.

Stay right there, McGarrett.

Ladies and gentlemen, you
have just entered a magical place.

The room, beneath
a vaulted dome,

will soon be transformed into a
glittering panorama of the heavens.

The beauty of the skies,
the stars and constellations,

all in their proper
places and perspectives,

and even the seemingly
mysterious movements of the planets

will be displayed
and made to perform

for your pleasure
and your edification.

Right here, in this
theater of the stars,

we expand our knowledge of the
outer space to the farthest reaches,

and we explore
the corridors of time.

Backward to the beginnings,

forward to unimaginable
vistas of the future.

And the stars come up.

The visual motions of
the planets in the sky

result from the combination
of their own motions

and the voyage of the
Earth around the sun.

How'd he get up there?

Um, door outside to the left.

Danno, get it, will you?

Now listen to me,

I want you to turn the house
lights on when I say so. All right?

McGARRETT: Ladies and
gentlemen, please. Please, stay calm.

There's no danger to you.

Hold it.

Nobody moves or she dies.

Ladies and gentlemen, please.

Please, do as he
says, but remain calm.

That's very important.

Danno, stay where you are.

Burgess, it's all over.

Give yourself up.
We won't hurt you.

The Moon is void
of course right now.

And you can't touch me.

McGARRETT: No, you're
wrong, Burgess. You're wrong.

The planet Mercury
is retrograde.

You know that means your
current plans cannot be fulfilled.

And the Moon has just
entered your birth sign, Scorpio.

I'll prove it to you.

It's all over, Burgess.
Look up. Look.

Look into the stars.

Release the lady and turn
your weapon over to the officer.

Do it now.

Okay, Danno. Book him.

McGARRETT: Are you all right now?
- Almost.

You really did your homework.

Mr. McGarrett, thank you.

You still don't believe
in astrology, do you?

No, I don't.

Strange, after what
just happened in there.

What do you mean?

Well, the stars saved
my life, didn't they?

Oh, did they?

- I thought the coppers did.
- Ha, ha.
