Hunter (1984–1991): Season 2, Episode 13 - War Zone - full transcript

AAH!

YOU ACTUALLY KNOW THE FREAK
WHO MIGHT HAVE DONE THIS?

LITTLE SONNY ZAJAK,
THE TIN SOLDIER.

YEEAH!

WHAT A MACHO MAN.

I ASK YOU TO SLIP IN
QUIETLY AND NICELY,

AND YOU CHARGE IN WITH FOUR
COMMANDOS AND A BAZOOKA.

YOU DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.

OH, YES, I DO.

AAH! I CAN'T SWIM.

THE GUARD JUST DIED.



AND HE WAS THE ONLY
WITNESS YOU HAD ON EARTH.

NOW, WHEN YOU SEE
HUNTER YOU TELL HIM

THAT I'M TAKING YOU
TWO OFF THIS CASE.

WHY DO I FEEL HE'S GOING
TO DO SOMETHING RASH?

HUNTER!

WORKS FOR ME.

Cab driver: WHOA!
THAT'LL BE 18 BUCKS.

MR. JOHANSON ALWAYS
MAKES ARRANGEMENTS

FOR MY CAB FARE.

NOBODY MADE ANY ARRANGEMENTS.
YOU OWE ME 18 LONG.

MAY YOUR LIFE BE LONG
AND FILLED WITH CRAB GRASS.

YOU'VE GOT ONE CHANCE.

YOU WERE WITH A MAN
LAST NIGHT. LE CLAIR.

TELL ME, WHAT DID HE TELL YOU?



WHAT HE TOLD ME?

HE CAME TO ME AND HE TOLD
ME HE'D BETRAYED A TRUST.

SOMETHING HE SAID
HE WOULD NEVER DO!

NOW WHAT DID HE TELL YOU?

OH, GOD! I DON'T REMEMBER.
I DON'T REMEMBER.

HE GOT DRUNK.

WHEN HE'S DRUNK,
HE TELLS SECRETS.

NOW, WHAT SECRETS
DID HE TELL, DENISE?

I... I DON'T KNOW.
JU... JUST BRAGGING.

BRAGGING STUFF. I DON'T KNOW.

BRAGGING? WHAT KIND OF BRAGGING?

MONEY! MONEY AND, UM...

HE SAID THAT HE LIKED ME

AND THAT HE WANTED
TO TAKE ME AWAY.

THAT HE WAS HERE
FOR... FOR A JOB,

A V-VERY IMPORTANT JOB.

McCall: HUNTER,
WHAT KIND OF GIRL

GOES FOR A RIDE
IN A FAKE CHINCHILLA

AND TELLS THE CABBIE

THE PAYMENTS HAVE
BEEN ARRANGED FOR?

A HOOKER GIRL? UH-HUH.

THE TROUBLE WITH YOU,
McCALL, IS YOU'RE ALWAYS

ASSUMING THE WORST IN
YOUR FELLOW HUMAN BEING.

HA HA!

I'M NOT A FELLOW
HUMAN, I'M A COP.

YEAH, BUT YOU GOT
TO ADMIT, McCALL,

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME A
PIMP CARVED UP ONE OF HIS GIRLS

WITH AN EIGHT-INCH CARBON KNIFE?

MAYBE HE'S A WEIRD PIMP.

LOOK, I KNOW IT DOESN'T
MAKE MUCH SENSE

LURING HER OUT ON SOME
PHONY DATE IN BEVERLY HILLS.

BUT IF SHE'S NOT A HOOKER,

THEN WHAT'S THAT,
HER LAUNDROMAT?

THIS IS THE L.A. WATERWORKS.

OH, UH...

POLICE. SERGEANT HUNTER
AND SERGEANT McCALL.

OH, MY! WELCOME, WELCOME.

WELL, ARE YOU TWO INTERESTED
IN THE PULSATING JET ROOM,

OR PERHAPS THE
HONEYMOON HOT TUB SPECIAL

WITH MAGIC FINGERS?

NO, WE'RE HERE ON BUSINESS.

YOU DON'T THINK THAT
MAYBE SOME OF YOUR GIRLS

MIGHT BE TAKING IN A LITTLE
EXTRA LAUNDRY, DO YOU?

SOME OF MY GIRLS
ARE IN NURSING SCHOOL.

WHY, THEIR PROFESSORS
COME IN TO VISIT ALL THE TIME.

I GUESS THAT MUST BE
ONE OF THE PROFESSORS.

Man: UH... UH-HUH.

LEANNE... THE HEAT.

IT'S ABOUT TIME
YOU TWO SHOWED UP.

I'M THE ONE THAT CALLED
THE DESK SERGEANT

ABOUT DENISE. I WAS
WORRIED ABOUT HER.

SHE DIDN'T SHOW
UP FOR WORK TODAY.

WELL, I'M AFRAID SHE
WON'T BE COMING BACK.

LEANNE, DO YOU
HAVE ANY IDEA AT ALL

WHO'D WANT TO KILL DENISE?

NOW, YOU SAID SHE
HAD A DATE LAST NIGHT.

McCall: A JOHN?

GUESS IT DOESN'T
MATTER NOW, DOES IT?

WELL, WE KNOW SHE WAS
OUT WITH MR. JOHANSON,

OR SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE.

WHO MADE THAT DATE?

I DON'T KNOW.

WAS THERE SOMEONE

THAT SHE WAS AFRAID
OF CROSSING, A PIMP?

HEY, I DON'T HAVE A PIMP
AND SHE DIDN'T HAVE A PIMP.

NOW, THE ONLY GUYS
THAT GAVE HER THE CREEPS

WERE THE CUSTOMERS.

DID SHE DATE ANYBODY
RECENTLY THAT WAS KINKY?

YEAH.

TWO NIGHTS AGO RECENT ENOUGH?

THERE WAS THIS GUY,

AND SHE SAID HE
REALLY FREAKED HER OUT.

WELL, WHY WOULD SHE SAY THAT?

I DON'T KNOW. HE GOT DRUNK

AND STARTED SPOUTING OFF
ALL KINDS OF WEIRD STUFF.

I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT.

I DIDN'T ASK. DAMN IT.

DO YOU HAVE A NAME ON HIM?

I DON'T KNOW.

DID SHE HAVE A BOOK THAT
MIGHT HAVE HAD HIS NAME IN IT?

LOOK, ALL'S I
REMEMBER IS THAT...

IT SOUNDED SORT OF
FRENCH, YOU KNOW, LIKE...

LIKE 'DU' SOMETHING OR OTHER.

IF SHE NEVER MENTIONED
HIS NAME BEFORE,

MAYBE HE WAS A
FIRST TIME CALLER,

MAYBE HE WAS A TRANSIENT.

YEAH. HEY, YEAH, THAT COULD BE,

BECAUSE SHE SAID
SHE WAS JUST GONNA

TAKE THE MONEY
AND RUN, YOU KNOW?

'CAUSE HE WAS IN TOWN
JUST FOR THE WEEK.

WELL, WHERE DID HE
CONTACT HER FROM?

WHERE DID HE CALL HER FROM?

YEAH, IT WAS... IT WAS A BAR.

HE... HE CALLED HER FROM A BAR.

WHAT BAR?

OH, IT WAS...

KAY... OH...

A BAR CALLED KAY SAN.

YEAH, THAT'S IT.

KAY SAN.

NICE SHIRT.

Man: IF WE'D BLITZED
THE RICE PADDIES

WITH FIRE-BREEDING CHEMICALS,
THE WAR WOULD HAVE BEEN OVER.

Man: SURE. AND YOU'D
LOOK LIKE SOME MUTANT

WITH A THIRD EYE IN THE
MIDDLE OF YOUR NOSE.

Man: OK, EVERYBODY.
LET'S LOOSEN UP.

NOW, A REAL MAN...
DOESN'T NEED AN UZI.

HE DOESN'T EVEN NEED A STERLING.

A REAL MAN WRAPS HIS
HAND AROUND 6 INCHES...

OF COLD, HARD STEEL...

AND THEN SHOVES IT UP THE
FOURTH POINT OF CONTACT.

EE-YAH!

Man: I DON'T MAKE THE WARS...

AND I DON'T GET
PAID TO FIGHT 'EM.

BUT I DECIDE HOW
A MAN WILL DIE...

AND THAT'S HAND TO HAND.

MANO A MANO.

WHAT A MACHO MAN.

YOU WANT TO PROVE
YOU'RE A BIGGER MAN?

NO.

I DON'T FIND STICKING
DUMMIES VERY MACHO MYSELF.

HEY...

HEY! WHOA, MAN!

HUNTER!

LITTLE SONNY ZAJAK.
THE TIN SOLDIER.

THOUGHT I LOCKED YOU UP

AND THREW AWAY THE
KEY A LONG TIME AGO.

IT'S CALLED PAROLE, HUNTER.

YOU WANT TO KNOW SOMETHING?

THERE'S NOT A DAMN THING
THAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT.

BARTENDER?

ANY FRENCH MEN
HANGING AROUND HERE,

OR ANYBODY WITH A FRENCH NAME?

WHY DON'T YOU TRY
FRENCH LICK, INDIANA?

THAT'S CUTE.

THAT... THAT'S REAL CUTE.

DO YOU REALLY KNOW
THAT WEIRDED-OUT COP?

KNOW HIM?

I PUMPED A 9mm MAG AT HIM,

AROUND HIM AND UNDER HIM,

BUT I COULDN'T HIT HIM.

NOW, WHY DON'T I
JUST DUST HIM OFF,

JUST A LITTLE?

HEY, LE CLAIR... LE CLAIR?

DON'T YOU THINK YOU'VE
MUDDIED THE WATERS

ENOUGH FOR ONE DAY?

COME ON.

WHAT SAY YOU JUST...

SAVE YOUR ENERGY FOR TONIGHT?

THEN YOU CAN PLAY
AT COPS AND ROBBERS.

OK?

OK. MOVE OUT!

ALL RIGHT. ULRICH!

RIGHT, IT TAKES THREE MINUTES,

THEN THEY'LL BE BACK
AROUND, OFF THEIR ROUND.

WE'VE LOST 20 SECONDS.

MARK ON MY COMMAND...

FREEZE!

TURN AROUND REAL SLOW
AND DROP THOSE GUNS.

Zajak: UP, UP! GO!

COME ON, WE'VE GOT 40
SECONDS! NOW, MOVE IT, MOVE IT!

20 SECONDS. COME ON!
MOVE, MOVE! MOVE IT.

THAT'S IT. GO!

OUT, OUT, EVERYBODY
OUT. ON THE DOUBLE. OUT!

MEDICAL SUPPLY HOUSE?

HEY, HEY, WHOA!

WHY WOULD THEY BREAK
INTO A MEDICAL SUPPLY HOUSE?

THEY DON'T USE DRUGS.

MAYBE THEY'D SELL 'EM.

BRING A LOT OF MONEY
OUT ON THE STREET.

MERCENARIES? COME ON.

YOU DON'T BELIEVE
ME, ASK THE GUARD.

IF YOU HURRY, HE'S GOT
ABOUT 9 BULLET HOLES IN HIM,

BUT THERE AIN'T NOTHING
WRONG WITH HIS EYESIGHT.

JUNGLE GARB AND UZIS.
THAT'S ABOUT ALL HE SAID, HUH?

THAT AND THE FACT
THAT HE WAS TALL,

BUILT LIKE A STONE WALL,

CAMI CLOTHES, CAMI MAKE-UP,
ONE REAL MEAN LIZARD.

ZAJAK?

YOU ACTUALLY KNOW THE FREAK
WHO MIGHT HAVE DONE THIS?

YEAH, MAYBE.

WELL, BE CAREFUL, YOU TWO.

'CAUSE AFTER LEAVING
A WITNESS BEHIND,

HE'S APT TO BE IN
A REAL GOOD MOOD.

HMM...

WALLY? HUNTER. LOOK,
YOU GOTTA DO ME A FAVOR.

I KNOW IT'S LATE.

YOU GOTTA FIND OUT THE PAROLE
OFFICER FOR A SONNY ZAJAK.

WHAT THE...?!

GOOD MORNING.

HUNTER! YOU DON'T
HAVE A WARRANT FOR THIS!

YOU WANT TO BET? READ IT.

YOU'RE UNDER ARREST FOR MURDER.

NOW, GET UP. AAH!

Hunter: MANFRED T. ROYCE.

NEVER HEARD OF HIM.

REALLY?

HE'S HEARD OF YOU.

HE WAS AT THE PARKLAND
PHARMACEUTICAL

SUPPLY WAREHOUSE LAST NIGHT.

HE SAW YOU JUST MINUTES BEFORE
YOU FILLED HIM FULL OF HOLES.

DON'T YOU REMEMBER THESE THINGS?

FINE. REMIND ME TO SEND
A WREATH TO HIS FUNERAL.

OH, HE'S NOT DEAD.

YEAH, KINDA SURPRISED ME, TOO.

BUT WHEN HE WAKES UP,

HE'S GONNA WANT TO
TALK TO YOU, I'M SURE.

LE CLAIR...

LE CLAIR, THAT'S
FRENCH-SOUNDING, ISN'T IT?

CERTAINLY IS.

LISTEN, DID YOU GET ANY
MUG SHOTS ON THESE GUYS?

Cop: YEAH, THEY'RE UNDER ARREST.

McCall: OK, YOU MIND
SHOWING ME THIS ONE,

THE ONE NAMED LE CLAIR?

YOU BET. WALK THIS WAY.

YOU KNOW, I DON'T GET IT.

STEALING DRUGS.
YOU DON'T USE THEM.

BUT THEN YOU GO AHEAD
AND BREAK INTO A WAREHOUSE,

YOU GUN DOWN A
MAN IN COLD BLOOD,

AND YOU TAKE OVER ONE MILLION
DOLLARS' WORTH OF DRUGS. WHY?

HUNTER, GO TALK TO MY LAWYER.

HUNTER!

I WANT MR. ZAJAK
AND HIS MEN FREED.

FREED?

YOU MUST BE
HALLUCINATING, SPEIGEL.

AS SOON AS WE GET THE
OK FROM THE HOSPITAL,

WE'RE GONNA PARADE
THESE IDIOTS BY IN A LINE-UP.

A LINE-UP? A LINE-UP WITH WHOM?

THAT GUARD JUST DIED.

AND HE WAS THE ONLY
WITNESS YOU HAD ON EARTH?

CASE CLOSED, LET
THESE PEOPLE GO.

HA HA HA!

HE DIED 15 MINUTES AGO.

LET THEM GO.

I'M GONNA FOLLOW THIS
GUY. WANT TO TAG ALONG?

NO. I GOT A NAME TO
WORK ON. LE CLAIR.

MIGHT BE THAT FRENCH NAME
LEANNE WAS TELLING ME ABOUT.

I'LL CONCENTRATE ON THAT.

YEAH. YOU DO THAT.

LE CLAIR? YEAH, THAT'S THE GUY.

THAT WAS DENISE'S LAST DATE.

Leanne: WHAT CAN I
DO TO GET THIS GUY?

GET ME A DATE WITH HIM.

YOU WANT IT, YOU GOT IT.

IS HE HERE? DO YOU SEE HIM?

YEAH, I SURE DO.

WELL, IF THERE'S
ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO

TO HELP YOU NAIL
THAT SCUMBALL...

I'LL HANDLE IT FROM
HERE, LEANNE, THANKS.

OH!

IF YOU WANT TO GET
ACQUAINTED, HONEY,

I THINK THERE IS A BETTER WAY.

WELL, THANK YOU!

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA,
WHOA, WHOA, HONEY.

I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T
MEAN TO BE OFFENSIVE.

THEN JUST WHAT DID YOU MEAN?

AH, NOW, WOULD YOU
LOOK AT THAT NASTY STAIN?

ONLY ONE THING FOR
IT, THAT'S CLUB SODA.

IF I TALK REAL NICE TO THEM,

THEY MIGHT PUT A CHERRY ON TOP.

Man: LISTEN TO ME, I TOLD
YOU TO KEEP IT SIMPLE.

I COULD HAVE USED
A LOT OF OTHER WAYS

TO BREAK INTO THAT SUPPLY HOUSE,

LIKE BRIBING A GUARD.
"TOO DANGEROUS", I SAID.

HELL, EVEN THAT WOULD
HAVE BEEN LESS RISKY

THAN WHAT YOU PULLED.

ONE OF MY GUYS JUST
HAPPENED TO STEP ON SOMETHING.

I MEAN, IT SOUNDED LIKE GLASS.

OTHERWISE, THE
OPERATION WOULD HAVE BEEN

AS SMOOTH AS SILK.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

THE COPS ARE RAVING JACKASSES?

DON'T YOU REALIZE THEY'RE
GONNA CATCH ON TO US?

THEY'RE GONNA START PUTTING
TWO AND TWO TOGETHER?

AND WHAT HAVE THEY GOT?

THEY'VE GOT NOTHING.

THEY GOT A STREET
HEIST FOR DRUGS.

FOR MONEY AND PROFIT.

GOD.

GO ON, KEEP TALKING.

KEEP LAYING IT ON.

THE FACT IS, YOU CAME TO
ME HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

AND THEN YOU WRAP
MY BUTT IN A SLING-SHOT

AND TELL ME TO
LOVE HOW IT FEELS?

HEY!

WHEN THE BIG JOB COMES,

YOU WILL BE
PINNING THE MEDALS...

ON MY CHEST.

ONE OF THE BIGGEST
NAMES ON THE STREET,

A REAL SHAKER, MOVER. HA HA!

HE TOLD ME THIS CREEP WAS
PERFECT FOR WHAT I GOT TO DO.

AND WHAT'S THAT?

YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW.

BELIEVE ME, I
THINK IT'S TIME I DID.

ARTHUR...

I'M GONNA TELL YOU THE
SECRET TO MY SUCCESS

IN THE BEVERLY
HILLS BANKING WORLD.

THE SECRET IS...

IT'S NOT ME.

IT'S A MAN NAMED CHARLIE HAWKIN,

WHO WORKS THE OTHER
END IN THE CAYMANS.

HE'S THE GUY THAT
DOES ALL THE WORK.

LAUNDERS THE MONEY, WHATEVER.

HE'S MY PARTNER.

WITHOUT HIM, I'M DEAD.

TOM, HE'S THE GUY THEY
PUT AWAY IN TERMINAL ISLAND.

WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY
SOMETHING EARLIER?

I COULD HAVE WORKED
OUT AN APPEAL.

IF I WAITED FOR APPEALS,

I'D GO BROKE BEFORE
THEY GOT TURNED DOWN.

I'M YANKING HIM
STRAIGHT OUT OF STIR.

OH, YOU'RE GONNA BUST
HIM OUT OF TERMINAL ISLAND?

Speigel: OH, NO WAY!

IT'S NEVER BEEN
DONE. IT CAN'T BE DONE!

JUST WATCH ME.

Hunter: HOW YOU DOING?

LET'S YOU AND I GO FOR A WALK.

WHY?

BECAUSE I SAID SO.

HEY, COME ON, MAN. YOU
DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.

OH, YES, I DO. NOW, GET MOVING,

YOU'RE BLOCKING THE ENTRANCE.

FOR GOD'S SAKE,
HUNTER, YOU'RE A COP.

AND COPS DON'T... AAH!

FOR GOD'S SAKE, HUNTER!

AAH!

HUNTER! I CAN'T SWIM!

CAN'T SWIM, HUH? WHAT DO
YOU MEAN, YOU CAN'T SWIM?

YOU'RE A BIG TOUGH
GUY, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT.

HUNTER, GET ME OUT!

HUH.

I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!

TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO KNOW,

AND I'LL HELP YOU
GET OUT OF THERE.

I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!

WELL, SURE YOU DO, THINK
ABOUT IT FOR A MINUTE.

NOW, YOU HAD A MEETING
ON A BOAT OVER THERE.

AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT
THE NAME OF THE BOAT WAS

AND WHO OWNS IT.

COME ON, ONE MORE
TIME. WHO OWNS THE BOAT?

D'ALESSANDRO.

WHAT?

THOMAS D'ALESSANDRO!

THOMAS D'ALESSANDRO. WHAT SLIP?

C 1601!

1601. THOMAS D'ALESSANDRO.

HMM...

THAT WASN'T SO TOUGH, WAS IT?

OH, HONEY, YOU LET
IT HANG OUT THAT FAR,

SOMEBODY'S LIABLE
TO BITE IT OFF.

WE TALKING ABOUT THE SAME THING?

WHY DON'T WE JUST FIND OUT?

WHY DON'T WE GO SOME
PLACE THAT'S NICE AND PRIVATE?

SURE. YOU KNOW SOME
PLACE NICE AND SAFE?

SURE DO, HONEY.

NICE LITTLE HOTEL, RIGHT
AROUND THE CORNER.

NO HOTELS AND NO
MOTELS, YOU UNDERSTAND?

NO, HONEY, I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

BABY, WE DO IT MY
WAY OR WE DON'T DO IT.

WHAT'S THE MATTER,
YOU ALL SHOW AND NO GO?

NO, NO.

GO ON, NOW. SIT DOWN.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

IT'S NO PROBLEM, ALL RIGHT?

LISTEN... I KNOW A NICE PLACE.

IT'S QUIET, VERY PRIVATE.

COME ON.

HOW MANY TIMES DO I
HAVE TO TELL YOU... ZAJAK!

IT'S ZAJAK, Z-A-J-A-K.

SO? LET IT RING ALL NIGHT!

FORGET IT! FORGET IT!

McCall: BOTTOMS UP.

YOU PICK A SPOT.

THE VELDT, THE JUNGLE...

SOME LITTLE CAVE ON
SOME GODFORSAKEN ISLAND,

AND I'VE PROBABLY BEEN THERE
AND BLOWN SOMEBODY TO PIECES.

OH, HONEY, GO ON NOW,
YOU JUST FOOLING WITH ME.

LISTEN...

YOU KNOW A MAN BY THE
NAME OF CHARLIE HAWKIN?

HEY, COME ON! COME ON!
HE'S THE GUY IN THE PAPERS

AND HE OWNS HALF THE CARIBBEAN.

HE IS A CLOSE PERSONAL
FRIEND OF MINE.

WELL, NOW, I HAVE
HEARD ABOUT THAT MAN.

YOU KNOW HIM, DO YOU?

HONEY, WE ARE LIKE... THAT!

NOW, WAIT A MINUTE,
I READ ABOUT HIM, I...

ISN'T HE THE GUY THEY
SENT OFF TO THE SLAMMER?

YOU THINK THE SLAM
SCARES A GUY LIKE THAT?

HEY... NOW, WHERE IS THAT BIG,

OLD COMFORTABLE BED
THAT YOU PROMISED ME?

WELL, HONEY, I THINK

YOU OUGHT TO HAVE
ANOTHER DRINK FIRST.

YES. I DO.

BE BACK.

YEAH.

HEY, ZAJAK. IT'S LE CLAIR,
HE'S GETTING DRUNK AGAIN

AND THIS TIME IT'S WITH A COP.

A COP.

HE'S DATING COPS NOW.

YEAH, A FEMALE COP.

NOW, BABY, HOLD ON A MINUTE,

WE HAVEN'T EVEN GOTTEN
TO THE MAIN COURSE YET.

HEY, HONEY, NOW, PUT ME DOWN.

YOU'RE GONNA PUT YOUR BACK OUT.

HONEY... I THINK YOU
BETTER PUT ME DOWN.

OH, HEY... HEY,
WHAT'D YOU DO TO ME?

I DIDN'T DO NOTHING, BABY,

YOU'VE HAD TOO MUCH TO DRINK.

COME ON, NOW, PUT ME DOWN.

MICKEY...

YOU SLIPPED ME A MICKEY.

Woman on phone: DISPATCH.

YEAH, PATCH ME
THROUGH TO HUNTER.

Hunter on phone: HUNTER HERE.

HUNTER, IT'S McCALL.

GET OVER TO MY HOUSE RIGHT AWAY,

I'VE GOT LE CLAIR ON
MY LIVING ROOM FLOOR.

YOU SOUND OUT OF
BREATH, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

SOUNDS LIKE YOU'VE
BEEN DOING AEROBICS.

NO, I'M ALL RIGHT.
JUST COME ON OVER,

YOU'RE GONNA LOVE
TALKING TO THIS GUY.

WE KNOW ABOUT D'ALESSANDRO.

WE ALSO KNOW YOU
SAID TOO MUCH TO DENISE,

AND THAT'S WHY SHE HAD TO DIE.

WHY TALK TO ME?
ASK D'ALESSANDRO.

YEAH...

YOU DON'T WANT TO GO
FOR MURDER ONE, DO YOU?

YOU'RE JUST WASTING YOUR BREATH.

I GOT NOTHING TO SAY.

YEAH... SURE YOU DO,
YOU'RE A SURVIVOR.

I'M GIVING YOU
YOUR ONLY WAY OUT,

YOU KNOW THAT, DON'T YOU?

HE'LL RIP MY GUTS
OUT IF I TALK TO YOU.

NO, HE WON'T.

HE'LL BE IN THE CALIFORNIA
GAS CHAMBER, DEAD.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS.

THEY WERE SHOOTING AT HIM.

DON'T YOU QUOTE PROCEDURE
TO ME! THREE PEOPLE ARE DEAD!

A GUARD KILLED, A
HOOKER MURDERED...

AND THEN SOME MERCENARY
FOLLOWS McCALL HOME

AND HE'S KILLED, ALL
HELL BREAKS LOOSE.

PROCEDURE.

YOU KNOW DAMN
WELL, IT IS ILLEGAL...

FOR A COP TO BRING A
SUSPECT INTO HER HOME.

IT WAS NOT A BUST.
SHE WAS TALKING TO HIM.

WHAT, DRESSED LIKE A HOOKER?

WHAT IN HELL AM I
SUPPOSED TO TELL

THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY?

I'VE ALWAYS BEEN PARTIAL
TO THE TRUTH MYSELF.

WHAT TRUTH?

A LOT OF HOOEY ABOUT SOME...

MERCENARY KILLERS INVOLVED
WITH BEVERLY HILLS BANK?

YOU KNOW, YOU COULD
HAVE BEEN KILLED.

YOU KNOW THAT?

YOU KNOW, CAPTAIN,

SOMETIMES YOU MAKE ME
FEEL LIKE YOU REALLY CARE.

JUST BECAUSE WE'RE ONE
BIG HAPPY FAMILY AROUND HERE

DOESN'T MEAN THAT I
LIKE UGLY CHILDREN.

CAPTAIN?

WELL, YOU'RE NOT
UNDER SURVEILLANCE,

I JUST THOUGHT I'D TRY
THIS PLACE FOR LUNCH.

OH. HOW IS IT?

PRETTY GOOD.

WELL, YOUR FRIEND
LOOKS FAMILIAR.

McCall: YEAH, THAT'S
IKEHORN, OVER AT FBI.

FBI?

YEAH, WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE
SOME KIND OF A CONNECTION

BETWEEN D'ALESSANDRO
AND A REAL HIGH-POWERED CON

AT TERMINAL ISLAND,
CHARLES HAWKIN.

WE THINK THAT WILL PROBABLY
BE OUR LEAD IN THE CASE.

WHERE'S HUNTER?

HE'S OVER AT THE BANK,

TRYING TO FIGURE
OUT SOME SORT OF

A FINANCIAL CONNECTION
BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM.

SO, WHAT DO YOU GOT?

WELL, CAPTAIN, WE'RE
STILL WORKING ON IT.

SOUNDS LIKE A DEAD END TO ME.

NO, IT'S NOT A DEAD END.

WE DO HAVE CHARLES
HAWKIN, THAT NAME.

THE NAME SOME DRUNK GAVE YOU.

NOW, WHAT DO YOU GOT
ON THE STOLEN DRUGS?

I JUST FINISHED
TALKING WITH VICE

AND THEY'RE STILL TRYING
TO GET A LEAD ON THEM.

LOOK, I THINK YOU'RE SPINNING
YOUR WHEELS ON THIS ONE.

NOW, WHEN YOU SEE
HUNTER, YOU TELL HIM

THAT I'M TAKING YOU
TWO OFF THIS CASE.

CAPTAIN, THERE'S A MURDER...

I'M NOT CLOSING THE CASE,

I JUST NEED YOU ON SOMETHING
THAT HASN'T DEAD ENDED.

NOW, IF HE COMES UP WITH
SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL,

WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT.

OK?

ENJOY YOUR LUNCH.

THANK YOU.

HI! ARE YOU NEW HERE?

MORE OR LESS.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

TRIXIE. WHAT'S YOURS?

HARVEY.

HARVEY. IS THAT YOUR
FIRST NAME OR YOUR LAST?

FIRST. MY LAST NAME IS STEIN.

OH. WELL, HARVEY...

DOES YOUR WIFE KNOW YOU'RE HERE?

HUH?

SHE WOULDN'T MIND

IF I CALLED AND TOLD HER, RIGHT?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU'RE
ASKING ME THESE QUESTIONS!

I LIED. MY NAME'S NOT TRIXIE.

AND I DON'T RUB MUSCLES
ON THE FIRST DATE.

OH, MY! OH, MY!

IS LEANNE HERE? NOPE.

WHEN WILL SHE BE BACK?

CAN'T SAY.

DEE DEE!

MY GOD! I'VE BEEN TRYING
TO GET HOLD OF YOU!

IT WAS ALL OVER THE
TV ABOUT THE SHOOTOUT.

HEY, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

YEAH, I'M FINE.

MY HOUSE IS TRASHED, BUT I'M OK.

WAS IT THAT GUY... LE CLAIR?

IS THERE SOMEPLACE
WHERE WE CAN TALK?

YEAH.

LE CLAIR'S DEAD.

THE SAME MAN WHO KILLED DENISE

IS THE SAME ONE
WHO KILLED LE CLAIR.

SO YOU KNOW WHO'S BEHIND IT ALL?

NO, WE STILL DON'T KNOW
WHY IT'S GONE DOWN.

LISTEN, I'D LIKE YOU

TO PLEASE TRY TO GO
OVER THAT CONVERSATION

THAT YOU HAD WITH
DENISE. JUST ONE MORE TIME.

THE ONE WHERE SHE
MENTIONED LE CLAIR.

LOOK, I HAVE TRIED AND TRIED
TO REMEMBER ANYTHING ELSE.

I JUST CAN'T.

ALL RIGHT, LET ME
THROW TWO NAMES AT YOU.

CHARLES HAWKIN AND
THOMAS D'ALESSANDRO.

DID SHE EVER
MENTION THOSE NAMES?

HAWKIN...

CHARLES HAWKIN.

I HAVE REPLAYED
IT A MILLION TIMES.

THERE JUST WEREN'T
ANY MORE NAMES.

I AM SORRY.

DON'T BE SORRY.
YOU'VE HELPED A LOT.

YOU TAKE CARE OF
YOURSELF, ALL RIGHT?

YEAH. THANKS.

THANKS.

Prisoner: THIEVES!
ROBBERS! I'M WARNING YOU!

I'M WARNING YOU.

I'M PLACING YOU
UNDER CITIZEN'S ARREST!

YEAH, I KNOW.

I'LL TAKE YOU ALL THE WAY
TO THE SUPREME COURT!

YEAH? YEAH!

HUNTER... HEY!

JIM, WILL YOU SEDATE HIM
AND GET HIM OUT OF HERE?

McCALL, I'M SORRY,
NO REIMBURSEMENT,

NO TROPHIES, NO NOTHING.

HUNTER, THAT'S
NOT WHAT I WANTED...

LOOK, MR. MOUSE IS GONE.
I'M VERY SORRY ABOUT THAT,

BUT HE'S DEAD.

WE'LL TAKE HIS LITTLE TINY BODY
AND PUT IT IN A SMALL SHOEBOX,

LOWER IT DOWN IN THE GROUND,

COVER HIM UP WITH SOME SOIL,

PUT A CANDLE ON
THE TOP, IT'LL BE OK.

WILL YOU JUST LISTEN
TO ME FOR A MINUTE?

I JUST GOT OFF THE
PHONE WITH VICE.

NONE OF THE DRUGS
HAVE HIT THE STREET.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME
THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE?

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.
WHERE'S THE LIST OF DRUGS?

HERE, LISTEN...
BENZEDRINE, MORPHINE,

POPPERS, AMPHETAMINES,
BARBITURATES...

TETRAMIDE, WHAT'S THAT?

YEAH, WHAT IS THAT?

TETRAMIDE. NEVER
HEARD OF THAT BEFORE.

CARLOS WILL KNOW.

LE CLAIR?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, SHOT UP?

WAS THERE ANY EVIDENCE
THAT HE WAS USING DRUGS?

DRUGS? THE MAN DIED
OF BULLET HOLES, HUNTER.

LOTS OF BULLET HOLES, NOT DRUGS.

Hunter: THAT'S NOT
WHAT I MEAN, CARLOS.

WAS THERE ANYTHING IN HIS
SYSTEM OTHER THAN LEAD?

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THE M.E.
DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER TO LOOK.

Hunter: WELL, HAVE
YOU EVER HEARD OF

A DRUG CALLED TETRAMIDE?

WELL, IF IT'S EXCITEMENT
YOU'RE LOOKING FOR,

WE'VE GOT THIS DILLY OF A D.B.

WE PULLED OUT OF LAKE QUECITAS.

LOOKED LIKE A BEACHED WHALE.

YOU'RE RAMBLING. TETRAMIDE.

HEY, MAN, I'M JUST THE GUY
THAT WORKS AT THE MORGUE.

WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS
PICKING ON ME?

BECAUSE YOU NEVER HANG UP ON
ME, THAT'S WHY I ALWAYS PICK ON YOU.

WELL, GUESS WHAT,
SUCKER? I KNOW TETRAMIDE.

THEY USED TO PRESCRIBE IT
FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.

YEAH, WHAT KIND OF
A STREET HIGH IS IT?

HEY, YOU'RE THE DICK TRACY,

I'M THE GUY THAT
WORKS AT THE MORGUE.

ASK HIM IF IT HAS ANY USES
BESIDES HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.

DID YOU CATCH THAT?

IS THAT DEE DEE?

SAY HI TO THE LITTLE VIXEN, HUH?

HI, LITTLE VIXEN.

COME ON, CARLOS, DOES IT HAVE
ANY OTHER SIDE EFFECTS AT ALL?

YOU'D HAVE TO BE A
MASOCHIST TO USE IT.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

GIVE SOMEBODY ABOUT
3 TIMES TOO MUCH OF IT,

AND IT WON'T KILL HIM,

BUT YOU'LL GET SOME
NICE CHEST PAINS

AND SOMEBODY PLAYING SOCCER BALL

WITH YOUR HEART RATE.

SOCCER BALL? WHAT
ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

OK, HUNTER, READ MY LIPS.

UNDER THE RIGHT CONDITIONS,

TETRAMIDE WILL GIVE
YOU THE SYMPTOMS

OF A SEVERE HEART ATTACK.

YEAH, THANKS, CARLOS.

SO THAT'S THE CONNECTION
BETWEEN HAWKIN AND D'ALESSANDRO.

Woman: HELLO?

MARY, THIS IS HUNTER.
GIVE ME THE OFFICE

OF THE WARDEN
AT TERMINAL ISLAND.

Mary: ONE MOMENT. THANKS.

Warden: HELLO?

HOWARD? RICK HUNTER.

Howard: YEAH, RICK.

LISTEN, YOU GOT
TO DO ME A FAVOR.

Howard: NAME IT.

RUN A CHECK ON A PRISONER
NAMED CHARLIE HAWKIN.

Howard: HAWKIN JUST
SUFFERED A HEART ATTACK.

HE'S BEING TRANSFERRED
TO BEACH VIEW GENERAL.

THANK YOU.

IT'S GOING DOWN. COME ON.

READY?

GO!

COME ON, YOU'RE NOT SICK.

SHUT THE HELL UP
AND GET OUT! MOVE IT!

PUT HIM IN THE BACK.
COME ON, PUT HIM IN.

I'M SORRY, HUNTER,
WE JUST GOT HERE.

THE PRISONER GOT AWAY.

IS THERE AN AIR
STRIP AROUND HERE?

ABOUT THREE AND A
HALF MILES UP THAT WAY.

ON THE EAST END
OF THE OIL FIELDS.

OK, THANKS, BILL. MAKE
SURE EVERYBODY HERE IS OK.

Bill: YOU GOT IT.

THERE'S A COASTLINE A
COUPLE OF MILES AWAY.

THEY MIGHT HAVE A
BOAT WAITING THERE.

YEAH.

THE MEXICAN BORDER IS
ONLY ABOUT 100 MILES AWAY,

I SAY THEY GOT AN AIRPLANE.

AT LEAST WE GOT TO
TAKE A CHANCE ON THAT.

COME ON, LET'S GO!

CHARLIE, CHARLIE!
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN HIT IN THE
HEAD WITH A SLEDGE HAMMER.

YOU'RE GONNA BE ALL RIGHT.

COME ON, I'LL HELP
YOU ON THE PLANE.

COME ON, MOVE IT, MOVE IT! GO!

COME ON!

MOVE!

THIS IS THE POLICE.

OPEN THE DOOR AND COME
OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP.

UNH!

ALL RIGHT, BOYS,

DROP YOUR WEAPONS, LEAVE
'EM INSIDE AND COME ON OUT.

LET'S GO, MOVE!

WHERE'S ZAJAK?

TAKE ONE OF THESE GUYS
AND SEARCH THIS THING.

I SAID, WHERE'S ZAJAK?

HE WAS THE FIRST
ONE OUT OF THE PLANE.

I SAW HIM RUN TOWARDS
THOSE OIL FIELDS.

I HOPE TO HELL YOU FIND HIM.

HUNTER!

UNH!

YOU OK?

I AM NOW.

WELL, CAPTAIN SAYS
YOU BROKE THE LAW

WHEN YOU BROUGHT THAT
CREEP BACK TO YOUR HOUSE

AND THE CITY IS NOT
GONNA REIMBURSE YOU

ONE CENT FOR ANY
OF YOUR DAMAGES.

OK, THAT'S IT. I'M GONNA SUE.

THEY'RE NOT GONNA
GET AWAY WITH THIS.

McCALL...

I'M SERIOUS. THEY'RE NOT.

THEY WANT TO PLAY HARD BALL?

THAT'S JUST FINE, I
CAN DO THE SAME THING.

THOSE GUYS CAME TO MY HOUSE,
THEY BUSTED EVERY WINDOW...

YOU WANT TO RELAX?

THEY TRASHED MY HOME!

SOMEONE'S GONNA
PAY FOR THIS, HUNTER.

KEEP IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT.

I DIDN'T HAVE A
CHOICE. IT WAS MY DUTY.

IF WE HADN'T HAVE DONE THIS...

IF I DIDN'T BRING THAT
CREEP TO MY HOUSE,

WE WOULDN'T HAVE
HAWKIN, WE WOULDN'T HAVE...

SHUT UP!

I'M NOT THE CITY HERE,
YOU'RE NOT SUING ME.

IF IT WAS UP TO ME,
I'D REIMBURSE YOU,

YOU KNOW THAT, HUH? I WOULD.

HEY, I GOT A SURPRISE FOR YOU.

GUESS WHO'S COME TO VISIT?

WHAT?

GRRR!

HIYA. HIYA.

MR. MOUSE! YEAH!

HA HA HA!
