Hunter (1984–1991): Season 2, Episode 21 - The Beautiful & the Dead: Part 2 - full transcript
Hunter and McCall's continued investigation into adultery and homicide pits them against a group of Russian spies.
WHO'S CHRISTY CARLSON?
OH, YOU MEAN ALLISON CAVALLEY.
I NEVER SHOT A GUN IN MY LIFE.
SHE LIED, DIDN'T SHE?
AND OUR FRIENDS
HERE FROM WASHINGTON
ARE DEEPLY CONCERNED.
Pilot: THIS IS THE UNITED
STATES COAST GUARD.
DID YOU HAVE ANY
LUCK FINDING ZUKOFF?
IF THIS ZUKOFF...
IS THAT HIS NAME?
ZUKOFF IS A KGB AGENT.
KILL HIM.
WE HAD HARD EVIDENCE.
YOU'VE GOT NO EVIDENCE.
WHAT KIND OF EVIDENCE?
I'D LIKE TO SEE THAT EVIDENCE.
I WANT TO GO HOME AND GO TO BED.
WORKS FOR ME.
Narrator: IN PART ONE OF THE
BEAUTIFUL AND THE DEAD...
I KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT THAT
MURDER AT THE MOTEL EXOTICA.
HE HAD A RUSSIAN ACCENT.
DID YOU SEE HIS FACE?
YES.
Cop: TURN TO YOUR LEFT.
OFF THE RECORD, MISS ZUHONIN,
DID ONE OF THEM SEEM CLOSE?
YES. ZUKOFF.
BUT I WOULD NEVER
SWEAR IT WAS HIM.
YOU'RE STILL NOT OFF
THE HOOK WITH US YET.
BECAUSE I'M RUSSIAN?
LOOK, MR. ZUKOFF.
WE DON'T CARE IF
YOU'RE PATAGONIAN.
YOUR ALIBI FOR LAST
FRIDAY NIGHT STINKS.
I GOT HOME TONIGHT
AND FOUND A DEAD BODY
WATCHING MY TELEVISION SET.
I THINK IT'S A FRAME-UP.
I'M TELLING YOU.
THERE WAS A BODY IN THAT CHAIR.
THIS IS THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME
I EVER GOT A MISSING
PERSONS REPORT
WITH NO NAME ATTACHED.
WHY DON'T YOU TELL
ME ALL ABOUT HER, HUH?
WELL, LOOKS LIKE WE'VE
PICKED UP A TAIL HERE.
WELL, LET'S FIND OUT WHO HE IS.
WHY IS IT ALL OF A SUDDEN
I GET THE FEELING WE'RE
IN THE BIG TIME HERE?
A DELEGATION FROM
WASHINGTON JUST TROOPED IN.
WE SEEM TO HAVE COMMON INTEREST
IN A CERTAIN RUSSIAN DEFECTOR
BY THE NAME OF LEO ZUKOFF.
WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO
SUGGEST THAT YOU LAY OFF
UNLESS YOU HAVE CLEAR
AND PLAUSIBLE CAUSE
TO APPROACH HIM.
SO, YOU REPORTED
A WOMAN MISSING?
YES. YEAH, I DID.
WHAT'S HER NAME?
ALLISON CAVALLEY.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE WORKING
ON THE HUMPHREYS CASE?
WE ARE. BUT WE THINK THEY
MIGHT BE THE SAME CASE.
BUT YOU DON'T KNOW HOW SHE DIED?
NO.
HE WAS LEAVING THAT
FOR THE CORONER, CAPTAIN.
HE DIDN'T KNOW THE BODY
WAS GOING TO DISAPPEAR.
YOU ALLISON CAVALLEY?
YES. YOU KNOW WHO SHE IS?
SHE'S MY BEST, CLOSEST FRIEND...
CHRISTY CARLSON.
WELL, SHE RENTED
AN APARTMENT IN L.A.
UNDER YOUR NAME.
WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT?
WAS SHE HIDING FROM SOMEBODY?
I'LL HAVE TO ASK THAT YOU TWO
KEEP MY IDENTITY TO YOURSELVES.
NEXT YOU... YOU'LL BE
ASKING ME IF I KILLED HER.
WELL, DID YOU?
Carlos, on radio:
HUNTER, IT'S CARLOS.
THE BODY YOU'VE BEEN
LOOKING FOR JUST CAME IN.
BUT I THINK YOU'RE IN
FOR A BIG SURPRISE, PAL.
Narrator: AND NOW,
PART 2 OF THE
BEAUTIFUL AND THE DEAD.
HUNTER, MY MAN. WHERE IS SHE?
WHERE'S MY
FAVORITE LITTLE VIXEN?
SHE'S OUTSIDE, CARLOS.
WHERE'S THE BODY?
IS IT HER?
YEAH.
WHERE'D THEY FIND HER?
YOU LIVE IN THE VALLEY,
RIGHT? SHERMAN OAKS?
SHERMAN OAKS, HUH?
BY ACCIDENT.
IN THE STORM DRAIN
AT KEMP AND VENTURA.
THEY WERE LOOKING
FOR A LOST DOG.
WHAT'S THE SURPRISE
YOU HAD TO TELL ME?
WELL, SHE WASN'T
KILLED LIKE YOU SAID, PAL.
HOW WAS SHE KILLED?
OLD-FASHIONED SHOT IN THE BACK.
.22 CALIBER BULLET ENTERED,
WENT THROUGH HER HEART,
RICOCHETED OFF HER RIB...
ENDED UP IN HER DUODENUM.
AUTOMATIC WEAPON...
PROBABLY... WITH A SILENCER.
HMM. WAS THERE ANY EVIDENCE
THAT SHE WAS RUNNING AT
THE TIME SHE WAS KILLED?
HMM. FOR SUBTLE AND TOTALLY
UNRELIABLE INFORMATION
OF THAT KIND, I
REFER YOU TO THE M.E.,
WHO IS NOT IN AT
THIS POINT IN TIME.
WELL, THIS IS A SURPRISE
THAT SHE WAS SHOT.
I NEED THAT BULLET.
THE M.E. SENT IT TO THE LAB
WITH... AT MY SUGGESTION...
YOUR NAME ON THE TAG.
OK. GOOD. APPRECIATE IT. THANKS.
SO, WHAT HAVE WE GOT HERE?
SHE CALLED A CAB.
YOU'LL GET TO THE AIRPORT FASTER
RIDING WITH US.
I KNOW...
BUT THE CAB DRIVER WON'T
ACCUSE ME OF MURDER.
WAS IT CHRISTY CARLSON?
YES, IT WAS.
SHE'S DEAD?
YES, SHE IS. SHOT
RIGHT IN THE BACK
WITH A .22 CALIBER HANDGUN.
I NEVER SHOT A GUN IN MY LIFE.
NOT EVEN AT A TIN CAN!
MISS HUMPHREYS, THERE'S
ALWAYS A FIRST TIME,
ISN'T THERE?
ALL 3 OF YOU?
Humphreys: JUST
ME. TO THE AIRPORT.
OH, UNLESS YOU'VE DECIDED
I CAN'T LEAVE THE JURISDICTION.
THAT IS THE WORD, ISN'T IT?
YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH DO
WHAT YOU WANT, MS. HUMPHREYS.
BUT I'M STILL A SUSPECT?
A SUSPECT IS
SOMEBODY WITH MOTIVE,
OPPORTUNITY, AND A LOUSY ALIBI.
YOU'RE A SUSPECT.
CALL MY DAUGHTER.
SHE'LL TELL YOU
I WAS IN PALO ALTO THAT
DAY... ALL DAY... WITH HER.
I'M SURE SHE WILL,
MS. HUMPHREYS.
DRIVER, ON THE
WAY TO THE AIRPORT,
ACCUSE HER OF MURDER A
COUPLE OF TIMES, WILL YOU?
Woman: HUNTER.
MIKE HARRISON'S BEEN LOOKING
FOR YOU GUYS LIKE CRAZY.
HE WENT BACK TO HIS OFFICE.
HOLD THAT.
MIKE? HUNTER.
REALLY? OK, WE'LL GET
OVER THERE RIGHT AWAY.
THANKS, MIKE.
WELL, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH
RALPH CALLED BIG MIKE.
HE'S GOT SOMETHING
HE WANTS TO SHOW US.
BUT HE DOESN'T
WANT TO TALK TO US
OVER THE PHONE
ABOUT IT. COME ON.
WHO IS IT?
SERGEANT McCALL.
SERGEANT HUNTER.
I'VE BEEN TRYING
TO LOCATE YOU TWO.
I'VE TRIED EVERYWHERE.
I EVEN TRIED MISSING
PERSONS UP IN SAN FRANCISCO.
I FOUND OUT YOU GUYS
WERE HOMICIDE DETECTIVES.
I'M A LITTLE SCARED.
AND I'VE GOT
SOMETHING TO SHOW YOU.
J-JUST SIT DOWN.
TAKE A LOOK AT THAT.
NOW, I HADN'T
DEVELOPED THAT ONE YET
WHEN I SAW YOU THE FIRST TIME.
A PICTURE OF CHRISTY. SO WHAT?
IT'S MORE OF THE SAME, RALPH.
TAKE A CLOSER LOOK.
HERE. LOOK AT IT
UNDER THE LIGHT.
WELL, THAT'S A
PICTURE OF ZUKOFF.
McCall: SURE IS.
Ralph: MAYBE THIS'LL HELP.
I BLEW UP JUST THAT
PART OF THE SHOT.
THIS IS A LITTLE
BIT BETTER SHOT.
CAN I TAKE THIS?
YEAH, SURE. I GOT THE NEGATIVE.
WHO... WHO IS ZUKOFF?
HOW LONG AGO WAS
THIS PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN?
THAT WAS THE
LAST TIME I SAW HER.
IT'S PROBABLY THE DAY SHE DIED.
WHAT?
IT WAS PROBABLY TAKEN
ON THE DAY SHE DISAPPEARED.
THANKS, RALPH.
HE'S IN THERE.
THEIR LIPS ARE SAYING NO,
BUT THEIR EYES ARE SAYING YES.
DOESN'T MAKE ANY
DIFFERENCE, McCALL.
TOMORROW WE GET
THE TROOPS IN HERE
AND GET A WARRANT
FOR HIS ARREST.
YEAH, WHAT ABOUT
THAT HARD-NOSED JERK
FROM WASHINGTON
THAT WARNED US TO LAY OFF, HUH?
YEAH, HE'S A JERK ALL RIGHT,
BUT HE'S GOT HIS JOB
AND WE'VE GOT OURS.
AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED,
THIS ZUKOFF CHARACTER
IS A LOOSE WARHEAD.
IT'S LATE.
I'LL TAKE YOU HOME.
YOU NEED SOME SLEEP.
HEH. SO DO YOU, BIG GUY.
COME ON.
AAH!
UNH!
UHH!
UNH!
Woman: SERGEANT HUNTER!
SERGEANT HUNTER?
HARVEY, QUICK!
CALL AN AMBULANCE!
HOW YOU FEELING, HUNTER?
I'M ALL RIGHT, GENE.
HOW MANY FINGERS?
ARE YOU KIDDING?
NO. HOW MANY FINGERS?
LET'S SEE... I THINK THERE'S
ABOUT 3 OF THEM THERE.
YEAH, 3. I'LL GO WITH 3.
Zukoff: I DO NOT BELIEVE
YOU MAKE ONLY ONE PRINT.
WHERE ARE OTHERS?
I SWEAR... I ONLY
MADE ONE OF EACH.
WHY WOULD I MAKE MORE THAN ONE?
BUT YOU DID.
AND I KNOW IT.
I DIDN'T! PLEASE!
YOU'VE GOT THE NEGATIVE.
THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT!
TAKE TWO OF THESE EVERY 4 HOURS.
EXCUSE ME.
WERE YOU IN YOUR
JAMMIES WHEN THEY CALLED?
YEAH, I WAS IN MY J...
I GOT DRESSED AGAIN.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
WHAT HAPPENED?
I'M FINE. GET IN.
YOU'RE DRIVING.
UGH! YOU'RE GONNA
TAKE THOSE ASPIRIN
WITHOUT ANY WATER?
MM-HMM.
YEP.
THIS IS L-56.
SEND A COUPLE OF
BLACK-AND-WHITES
OVER TO 3142 PARK
TERRACE IN BRENTWOOD.
RUN A CODE 3.
McCALL AND I ARE
EN ROUTE. L-56 OUT.
3 GUYS THAT JUMPED
ME TOOK THE PICTURE.
WE GOTTA ROLL.
TELL ME!
HE'S TELLING THE TRUTH.
KILL HIM.
GOT THE PHOTOGRAPHS.
I AM NOT ARMENIAN,
AND I WOULD PREFER
YOU SPEAK RUSSIAN OR
ENGLISH WHEN I AM PRESENT.
YOU WILL GO BACK TO
YOUR PLACE AND WAIT.
YOU'LL BE PICKED
UP WITHIN THE HOUR.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN PICKED UP?
I HAVE ARRANGED FOR
YOU TO RETURN BACK HOME.
BUT WHY?
EVERYTHING'S SETTLED.
THIS WAS MERELY A
POLICE CASE. NOW IT'S...
IT'S FINISHED.
YOU ARE TO RETURN HOME TONIGHT.
BEFORE YOU MAKE ANOTHER MISTAKE
AND EXPOSE ME AS WELL.
DID YOU SEND FOR AN M.E.?
YES, SIR. THEY SHOULD
BE HERE ANY MOMENT.
THEY GOT THE NEGATIVE.
THE WHOLE ROOM'S TRASHED.
HIYA, BARNEY.
WELL, WHAT'VE WE GOT THIS TIME?
I DON'T KNOW. TAKE A LOOK.
LOOKS LIKE HE WAS KILLED
THE SAME WAY THAT
JOHN HUMPHREYS WAS.
YEAH? SAME SPOT?
YEAH, SAME PLACE.
PROBABLY THE
SAME STILETTO BLADE.
WHAT IS IT? WHAT'S HAPPENING?
IT'S OK.
DID YOU HEAR
ANYBODY, MS. DANELIAN?
NO... NOTHING.
DID YOU SEE ANYBODY?
ANYBODY NEW THAT YOU
HAVEN'T SEEN BEFORE?
ANYONE AT ALL?
NOTHING.
OH, I'M SORRY!
LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.
YOU KNOW WE'RE
GOING TO HAVE TO GET
A SEARCH WARRANT IF
WE'RE GOING AFTER ZUKOFF.
GOTTA FIND OUT
WHERE HE IS FIRST.
LOOK, I DON'T CARE
WHAT YOU'VE GOTTA DO.
I WANT A WARRANT ISSUED
FOR ZUKOFF'S ARREST.
SUSPICION OF MURDER.
NOW, GET WITH IT!
L-56 OUT.
YOU KNOW, THE GREATER
RUSSIAN SOCIAL CLUB'S
GONNA BE LOCKED UP
TIGHT AT 3:00 IN THE MORNING.
I HOPE SO.
HEY, PULL OVER HERE.
CUT YOUR LIGHTS.
ZUKOFF'S GOTTA BE
IN THAT LIMOUSINE.
McCall: WANT TO CALL FOR BACKUP?
NO, NO, NO. NOT YET.
I WANT TO SEE WHERE
HE'S GOING FIRST.
WHAT'VE WE GOT HERE?
THEY'RE GONNA CHECK US OUT.
JUST PLAY IT STRAIGHT.
THIS IS L-56. SEND A
PARAMEDIC AND A BACKUP
TO THE CORNERS
OF MIDVALE AND PICO.
THERE'S BEEN A CAR CRASH.
ARREST THE OCCUPANTS. L-56 OUT.
THIS IS L-56.
WE'RE IN PURSUIT OF A
BLACK STRETCH LIMOUSINE
HEADED WEST ON PICO
BOULEVARD JUST WEST OF ARCHER.
REQUEST A BACKUP.
CODE 3. L-56 OUT.
WE LOST THE LIMO, HUNTER.
THEY'VE GOTTA BE HEADED
FOR COAST HIGHWAY.
WHAT DO I WANT TO DO...
GO NORTH OR SOUTH?
GO NORTH.
THIS IS L-56. CONTACT
WEST L.A. DISPATCH.
THERE'S A BLACK-AND-WHITE
HEADED WEST ON PICO BOULEVARD.
WE WANT THE UNIT DESIGNATION.
Dispatch Officer: 10-4.
L-56, THAT UNIT IS 17 ADAM 32.
HAVE HIM SWITCH TO
FREQUENCY 17, PLEASE.
Dispatch: 10-4.
17-A-32, COME IN.
Cop: THIS IS 17 ADAM 32.
Hunter: THIS IS L-56.
WE'RE TURNING NORTH
ON PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR A
BLACK STRETCH LIMOUSINE.
WE'D LIKE YOU TO GO SOUTH.
IF YOU FIND IT, CALL US, BUT
DO NOT OVERTAKE, COPY?
Cop: 10-4.
HEY, HEY, HEY. THERE IT IS.
I COUNTED 4. HOW 'BOUT YOU?
YEAH. AND I SWEAR
ONE OF 'EM WAS ZUKOFF.
YEAH.
BRODER? HUNTER.
WHAT THE HELL? WHAT TIME IS IT?
WELL, IT'S 4:00 AM AND THERE'S
TROUBLE IN RIVER CITY, PAL.
WHAT? HUNTER, HOW
DID YOU GET THIS NUMBER?
I'M A DETECTIVE, REMEMBER?
LISTEN, I THINK YOU'VE
GOT A PROBLEM HERE.
A BOAT JUST LEFT MALIBU,
AND I THINK ZUKOFF WAS ON IT.
IF HE IS, YOU'RE THE
ONE WITH THE PROBLEM.
NOW, GET THE HELL OFF THE PHONE.
I'VE GOT TO CALL
THE COAST GUARD.
I'VE ALREADY DONE THAT, BRODER.
NOW, IF YOU WANT
TO TALK TO ME MORE
ABOUT THIS PROBLEM,
I'LL BE IN MY OFFICE.
GOOD NIGHT.
HUNTER?
DAMN!
HE'S SITTING AT YOUR DESK.
I HATE THAT MORE THAN ANYTHING.
Broder: ANY WORD
FROM THE COAST GUARD?
WHY IS IT EVERYBODY
DUMPS ON MY DESK?
NOBODY EVER DUMPS ON
YOUR DESK. WHY IS THAT? WHAT?
I SAID IS THERE ANY WORD
FROM THE COAST GUARD?
NO.
NO WORD. DID YOU HAVE
ANY LUCK FINDING ZUKOFF?
NO, HE'S GONE.
WHAT SCARED HIM? WHY DID HE RUN?
HE RAN BECAUSE WE FOUND A
HARD, SOLID PIECE OF EVIDENCE
THAT COULD HAVE PUT
HIM AWAY FOR MURDER.
YEAH, AND HE TOOK IT WITH HIM.
WHAT KIND OF EVIDENCE?
McCall: PHOTOGRAPH.
SHOWING HIM IN THE
APARTMENT OF CHRISTY CARLSON...
PROBABLY TAKEN ON THE
DAY SHE WAS MURDERED.
Hunter: YOU SEE,
ZUKOFF SENT OVER
A COUPLE OF MUSCLEBRAINS
TO ROUGH ME UP
AND TAKE THE PHOTOGRAPH,
WHICH THEY DID.
HE ALSO GOT THE NEGATIVE
BY KILLING RALPH,
THE PHOTOGRAPHER.
HE STABBED HIM
EXACTLY THE SAME WAY
HE STABBED JOHN HUMPHREYS.
YOU GOT ANY
COFFEE IN THIS PLACE?
RIGHT OVER THERE. PRIVACY?
RIGHT BACK THERE.
Pilot: THIS IS THE UNITED
STATES COAST GUARD.
YOU ARE ORDERED TO
ALTER YOUR COURSE...
TO PORT YOUR VESSEL
AT MARINA DEL REY.
THROW YOUR WEAPONS OVER
THE SIDE AND RAISE YOUR HANDS.
I REPEAT, THROW YOUR
WEAPONS OVER THE SIDE
AND RAISE YOUR HANDS.
Pilot: WE WILL STAY WITH YOU
UNTIL YOU ARE INTERCEPTED
BY A PATROL BOAT.
I NEVER HEARD OF
CHRISTY CARLSON.
WHO IS SHE?
McCall: WHAT ABOUT
ALLISON CAVALLEY?
NO.
MY PARTNER AND I WERE
SENT TO SANTA CLARA
BECAUSE HUMPHREYS CALLED
THE U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE...
AND THEY CALLED US.
THAT WAS AROUND THE TIME
THERE WAS A WHOLE SLEW
OF ARRESTS BEING
MADE FOR ESPIONAGE.
AND THOSE PEOPLE WERE
EYEBALLING THE DEATH PENALTY.
AND HUMPHREYS... WELL,
HE SOUNDED SCARED.
SOMEONE TRYING TO MAKE A DEAL.
A WAY OUT OF SOME BIG TROUBLE.
BUT WHEN WE GOT
THERE, HE DID A SWITCH.
GAVE US SOME PHONY
SONG AND DANCE.
WE COULDN'T TURN HIM AROUND.
WELL, I THOUGHT YOU SAID
HE HAD NO CONNECTION
WITH ZUKOFF.
I'M NOT ALLOWED TO
DISCUSS ZUKOFF WITH YOU
OR ANYONE ELSE
OUTSIDE OF MY AGENCY.
WELL, WHAT AGENCY WAS THAT?
YOU CAN'T TALK ABOUT ZUKOFF
'CAUSE HE'S A SPY, RIGHT?
HE BUYS HIGH-TECH SECRETS,
PROTOTYPES, THAT SORT OF THING.
YOU TWO BETTER PRAY
TO GOD YOU CAN SHOW
STRONG CAUSE FOR
LEANING ON ZUKOFF,
ESPECIALLY AFTER YOU
WERE GIVEN FAIR WARNING
TO KNOCK IT OFF.
BECAUSE IF YOU CAN'T,
YOU AND YOUR IMMEDIATE SUPERIORS
ARE IN DEEP, DEEP SQUAT.
LET'S SEE NOW,
IT WENT LIKE THIS, RIGHT?
ZUKOFF IS A KGB
AGENT. YOU KNEW THAT.
BUT HE DIDN'T KNOW
THAT YOU KNEW IT.
IS THAT RIGHT?
IF YOU WOULD HAVE TOLD
US THAT ZUKOFF WAS KGB,
WE WOULD HAVE STAYED CLEAR.
BUT YOU TOLD US THAT HE
WAS A FRIENDLY DEFECTOR.
AND I'M NOT TELLING YOU
ANYTHING DIFFERENT NOW.
THIS KGB CRAP...
THAT'S YOUR SCENARIO.
AREN'T WE ON THE SAME
SIDE HERE, BRODER?
WE'RE NOT EVEN
ON THE SAME PLANET!
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING ELSE.
IF ZUKOFF WAS KGB,
AND HE DIDN'T KNOW
THAT WE KNEW...
THAT'D BE PURE GOLD.
AND SCARING HIM
INTO TAKING A POWDER
WOULD PUT YOU TWO
ON THE WRONG SIDE.
THANKS FOR THE COFFEE.
YOU BETTER PRAY TO GOD
YOU CAN GET ANOTHER
COPY OF THAT PHOTOGRAPH.
SOUNDS LIKE THE
ONLY HARD EVIDENCE
YOU TWO... UH...
SPORTS EVER HAD.
I WANT TO GO HOME AND GO TO BED.
I KNOW THE ANSWER.
WHAT ANSWER?
ALLISON CAVALLEY.
WANT TO HEAR IT?
ON THE WAY HOME IN THE CAR.
McCall: REMEMBER WHAT
ALLISON CAVALLEY TOLD US
ABOUT CHRISTY AND HER
MAN? THAT IN A YEAR OR TWO
ALL HER PLANS WOULD BE
LOCKED IN. REMEMBER THAT?
YEAH, SO YOU THINK
THAT SHE KNEW WHAT
HUMPHREYS WAS UP TO?
KNEW ABOUT IT? SHE
WAS INVOLVED IN IT!
SHE KNEW ZUKOFF. SHE HAD TO.
WHEN HUMPHREYS GOT
SCARED, SHE GOT SCARED...
AND THAT'S WHEN
SHE RAN TO ZUKOFF.
OK. THEN WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT?
TO GET HER PLANS BACK ON
TRACK, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?
AND IT WORKED, DIDN'T IT?
'CAUSE ZUKOFF UPPED THE ANTE
OR SOMETHING AND KEPT
HUMPHREYS RIGHT IN LINE.
AT LEAST LONG ENOUGH FOR
ZUKOFF TO GET HIM DOWN HERE
'TIL HE COULD TAKE HIM OUT.
YEAH.
YEAH.
Dispatch: L-56, WE HAVE THE
COAST GUARD ON THE LINE.
PATCH 'EM THROUGH.
Dispatch: I KNEW YOU'D SAY THAT.
Man: ALL RIGHT.
TURN ALL 3 OF THEM
AND THEIR BOAT OVER
TO THE U.S. MARSHAL.
THE 3 MEN ARE REFUSING
TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS
UNTIL THEIR ATTORNEY GETS HERE,
SO WE CAN'T TALK TO THEM NOW.
WELL, THAT FIGURES.
DO THEY HAVE PAPERS?
THEY CLAIM TO BE U.S. CITIZENS.
MAYBE THEY ARE. IF
ZUKOFF... IS THAT HIS NAME?
YEAH.
IF HE DOESN'T WASH UP
ON ONE OF OUR BEACHES,
THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO HOLD THEM.
AND THE CHANCES OF YOU
FINDING ANY FINGERPRINTS
ON THAT BOAT ARE PRETTY SLIM.
A BOAT LIKE THAT CAN DO
OVER 90 KNOTS, CAN'T IT?
THAT'S RIGHT.
IS THERE ANY REPORTS OF
RUSSIAN SHIPS IN THE AREA?
3 NOTIFICATIONS TODAY
OF SPECIAL INTEREST VESSELS
ON THEIR WAY OUT OF PORT.
YOU GOT A SECURE
PHONE I CAN USE IN PRIVATE.
YEAH, SURE. UM...
THEY COULD HAVE RENDEZVOUSED...
WITH ANY ONE OF THOSE VESSELS.
TANKS WERE DOWN TO VAPOR
WHEN WE PICKED THEM UP.
YEAH. APPRECIATE
IT. THANKS VERY MUCH.
SURE. GOOD LUCK.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WE'RE NOT TAKING ANY CALLS,
AND YOU'RE TAKING ME HOME.
WHY? YOU'VE BEEN
SLEEPING ALL DAY.
LOOK, I NEED SOME
SLEEP, OK? TAKE ME HOME.
THAT JERK FROM WASHINGTON
IS GONNA HASSLE US TOMORROW,
AND UNLESS I GET SOME
SLEEP, I'M GONNA PUNCH HIM OUT.
OOH! FEISTY, HUH?
LITTLE BANTAM ROOSTER.
HEY, LISTEN. SEEING
THAT YOU'RE SO FEISTY,
HOW ABOUT YOU AND I CHECK
INTO THE MOTEL EXOTICA.
I GOT A TRUNK FULL OF
APPARATUS BACK THERE.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
OH! WONDERFUL! SOUNDS GREAT!
TIME OUT ON THAT, DOLL.
LET'S DO IT SOME OTHER TIME.
I NEED TO GO HOME AND
SLEEP IN MY OWN BED...
DISCONNECT THE PHONE.
YOU WANT A BORING NIGHT'S SLEEP,
THAT'S UP TO YOU.
THAT'S WHAT I WANT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
HA HA! MOTEL EXOTICA!
Man: AND OUR FRIENDS
HERE FROM WASHINGTON
ARE DEEPLY CONCERNED.
SHOULD THEIR CONCERNS
PROVE LEGITIMATE,
CHIEF HAS AUTHORIZED ME TO
LAUNCH A FULL INVESTIGATION
INTO YOUR HANDLING OF THIS CASE
AND THE CONDUCT
OF THESE 3 OFFICERS
IN THE MATTER OF LEO ZUKOFF.
WELL, WE'D JUST LIKE
TO HAVE A LITTLE LIGHT
SHED ON WHAT THESE CONCERNS ARE.
ONLY A FEW DAYS
AGO... IN THIS OFFICE...
I ASKED YOU, CAPTAIN,
I ASKED YOU, SERGEANT HUNTER,
AND YOU SERGEANT McCALL,
TO GO EASY ON LEO ZUKOFF...
TO LAY OFF WERE
MY EXACT WORDS...
UNLESS YOU HAD CLEAR
AND SUPPORTABLE CAUSE.
AM I CORRECT IN THAT?
WE HAD CAUSE FOR
EVERYTHING THAT WE DID.
OH. YOU HAD FURTHER
INFORMATION? EVIDENCE?
OTHER THAN THE
OPINION OF A WITNESS
WHO REFUSED TO CONFIRM
THAT EVIDENCE UNDER OATH?
Hunter: WE HAD HARD EVIDENCE
LINKING ZUKOFF WITH
CHRISTY CARLSON.
I'D LIKE TO SEE THAT EVIDENCE.
WELL, SO WOULD I.
BUT, AS YOU KNOW, I LOST IT.
SO, IN OTHER WORDS...
AS FAR AS WE KNOW...
THAT EVIDENCE NEVER
REALLY EXISTED, DID IT?
LOOK, HUNTER GOT ATTACKED
OUTSIDE HIS OWN HOME
BY 3 PROFESSIONALS AND
THE EVIDENCE WAS TAKEN.
AT THE SAME TIME
THAT WAS GOING DOWN,
THE PHOTOGRAPHER WAS KILLED,
AND THAT WAS PROBABLY BY ZUKOFF.
AND HE GOT THE DAMN
NEGATIVE, ALL RIGHT?
YOU GOT NO EVIDENCE.
ISN'T THAT THE BOTTOM LINE?
IT LOOKS PRETTY BAD, YEAH.
MR. WATERSON...
WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON HERE?
LET ME GIVE YOU A
DAMAGE REPORT, FOLKS.
LEO ZUKOFF WAS A KGB AGENT
WHO DIDN'T KNOW
WE HAD HIM ON LINE.
A VITAL, SECOND-LEVEL AGENT
WHO WAS ABOUT TO LEAD US
TO HIS TOP-LEVEL
SUPERIOR AT ANY MOMENT...
UNTIL YOU TWO FATALLY
IMPACTED OUR CASE ACTION.
ANYTHING TO ADD, CAPTAIN?
YEAH. FIRST OF ALL,
LIEUTENANT FINN
WAS IN NO WAY
INVOLVED IN THIS CASE.
AND SECONDLY, SERGEANTS
HUNTER AND McCALL
WERE OPERATING AT ALL
TIMES UNDER MY INSTRUCTIONS.
YOU'RE EXCUSED, LIEUTENANT.
YOU, TOO, SERGEANTS.
HOLD IT! JUST A SECOND, YOU TWO.
I GOTTA COUPLE OF QUESTIONS
I WANT TO ASK YOU ON THIS.
NOT RIGHT NOW, AMBROSE.
WE GOT A LOT OF THINGS TO DO.
NUMBER ONE IS TO PUSH THIS CASE
RIGHT DOWN WATERSON'S THROAT.
ISN'T THAT RIGHT? COME ON.
WHERE WE GOING?
LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION.
HOW DID ZUKOFF KNOW
THAT I HAD THAT PHOTOGRAPH?
HE HAD TO HAVE BEEN AT
RALPH'S APARTMENT, RIGHT?
NOW, JUST PERHAPS... MAYBE...
ONE OF THOSE AIRHEADS
AT THE POOL SAW SOMETHING.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT?
I THINK IT'S WORTH CHECKING OUT.
YOU KNOW, IT'S WONDERFUL WHAT
A COUPLE HOURS' SLEEP WILL DO.
YEAH, MAKES YOU WHOLE.
SO, WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?
ZUKOFF WASN'T THERE.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN
ZUKOFF WASN'T THERE?
WHEN WE WENT TO SEE RALPH...
THE NIGHT HE GAVE
US THOSE PICTURES...
I SAW SOMEBODY
WATCHING US AS WE CAME IN.
IT WASN'T ZUKOFF.
IT WAS THE MANAGER.
MS. DANELIAN?
SHE WATCHED US
GO UP THOSE STAIRS.
NOW, YOU REMEMBER
THE NIGHT WE WENT BACK
AFTER RALPH WAS KILLED?
YEAH.
WE ASKED HER SPECIFICALLY...
DID YOU HEAR ANYTHING?
DID YOU SEE ANYONE?
REMEMBER WHAT SHE SAID?
YEAH. SHE SAID SHE HADN'T
SEEN OR HEARD ANYBODY.
BUT, IN FACT, SHE
HAD. SHE HAD SEEN US.
THAT'S RIGHT.
SHE LIED, DIDN'T SHE?
YOU KNOW, YOU OUGHT
TO BE A DETECTIVE.
YEAH, THAT'S WHAT
MY MOM ALWAYS SAID.
WELL, I THINK IT'S ABOUT TIME
WE GET OURSELVES A
WARRANT FOR MS. DANELIAN.
I AGREE. SPECIFYING WHAT?
ONE .22 CALIBER HAND PISTOL
WITH A SOUND SUPPRESSOR.
I KNEW ZUKOFF DIDN'T
KILL CHRISTY CARLSON.
WRONG WEAPON.
MAY I HELP YOU?
YEAH. WE'D LIKE
TO TALK WITH YOU.
CERTAINLY. WHAT IS IT?
YOU DO REMEMBER US, DON'T YOU?
OF COURSE. YOU
ARE WITH THE POLICE.
MAY I ASK WHAT YOU
WISH TO TALK TO ME ABOUT?
POOR MR. SKINNER, PERHAPS.
PERHAPS.
CAN WE TALK ABOUT IT OUT HERE?
NO, I'M AFRAID WE CAN'T.
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY NOT.
WELL, MAYBE THIS
WILL EXPLAIN WHY.
IT SAYS HERE THE ONLY
THING YOU'RE SEARCHING FOR
IS A .22 CALIBER HANDGUN.
I DO NOT HAVE SUCH A THING.
THEN WE CAN GO
INSIDE AND TAKE A LOOK
AND BE SURE OF THAT, RIGHT?
I WISH FIRST TO TALK
TO MY ATTORNEY.
GOOD. LET'S GO IN.
OH. MS. DANELIAN,
HOLD THE PHONE.
WE'LL MAKE OUR SEARCH.
IF WE FIND THE GUN,
YOU'LL BE ARRESTED.
THEN YOU CAN MAKE
YOUR PHONE CALL.
THANK YOU.
GO AHEAD.
LOOK FOR A GUN.
Danelian: YOU WILL NOT FIND ONE.
YEAH, IT'S SERGEANT RICK HUNTER.
SEND OVER A PARAMEDIC,
A BLACK-AND-WHITE, AND AN M.E.
TO 3142 PARK TERRACE,
BRENTWOOD. CODE 3. THANKS.
I WANT TO MAKE A PHONE CALL.
I'M SURE YOU DO.
TELL ME ABOUT CHRISTY CARLSON.
WHY DID YOU REMOVE
HER BODY FROM MY HOUSE?
DIDN'T YOU THINK
ANYBODY WOULD FIND HER?
IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE.
THE BULLET THAT KILLED
HER CAME FROM THIS GUN.
WE'LL BE ABLE TO PROVE
THAT, THANKS TO YOU.
I WISH TO MAKE A PHONE CALL.
WELL, WE'RE GONNA TURN YOU OVER
TO A FELLOW FROM
WASHINGTON, D.C.
VERY UNPLEASANT FELLOW.
THE PHONE CALL
WILL BE UP TO HIM.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO LIKE
HIM MUCH, MS. DANELIAN,
BUT HE'S GONNA LOVE YOU.
AMBROSE? HUNTER.
DO ME A FAVOR, WILL YOU?
GET A HOLD OF CAPTAIN WYLER.
HAVE HIM FIND OUT
WHERE WATERSON IS.
I'VE GOT SOMETHING VERY
SPECIAL HE MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN.
Hunter: THANKS.
TO BURBANK.
Hunter: JERRY.
HOW YOU DOING?
HEY, HOW YOU DOING?
GOOD. COMING OR GOING?
GOING. AND I'M LATE.
I GOTTA GET BACK TO THE AIRPORT.
I GOT 40 MINUTES
TO CATCH A PLANE.
WELL, I DON'T THINK
YOU HAVE TO RUSH.
THERE'S A FLIGHT TO SAN
FRANCISCO EVERY HOUR.
I KNOW, BUT I'VE GOTTA GET BACK.
LISTEN, I LEFT A LETTER
WITH LIEUTENANT
FINN FOR YOU GUYS.
DOES THE NAME RALPH
SKINNER MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU?
YEAH. DID HE WRITE YOU A LETTER?
NO. IT WAS ADDRESSED TO
YOU. "IMPORTANT/CONFIDENTIAL."
SOMEHOW IT FOUND ITS WAY TO ME.
WELL, WAS IT? IMPORTANT?
WELL, IT BETTER BE.
ROUND-TRIP FARE'S $89.
I'M KIDDING, BUT I
DIDN'T OPEN THE LETTER.
DID THE ENVELOPE SEEM TO
HAVE A PHOTOGRAPH INSIDE?
THAT'S WHY I DECIDED
TO BRING IT DOWN
INSTEAD OF MAIL IT TO YOU.
IT'LL HELP US OUT A LOT. THANKS.
GOOD. GOOD. SURE IS.
SURE WE CAN'T TALK YOU
INTO STAYING FOR DINNER?
I GOT 10 DAYS COMING NEXT MONTH.
I'LL TAKE YOU UP ON IT THEN, OK?
GREAT. HAVE A GOOD FLIGHT.
THANK YOU.
BYE-BYE. TAKE CARE.
WILL DO. BYE.
AND THANK YOU!
YOU GOT IT.
THAT THING DOESN'T MAKE
ONE DAMN BIT OF DIFFERENCE.
THE LOSS OF ZUKOFF
WAS AVOIDABLE.
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.
THERE'S MORE, MR. WATERSON.
COLONEL DANELIAN, KGB.
WE ARRESTED HER ON
FIRST-DEGREE MURDER.
SHE WAS ZUKOFF'S BOSS,
THE ONE YOU COULDN'T FIND.
I DON'T SEE ANYTHING
HERE ABOUT KGB
OR ANYTHING ABOUT ZUKOFF.
WELL, THAT'S JUST THE WAY
THE ARREST REPORT READS.
ACTUALLY, SHE THOUGHT
SHE COULD GET A BETTER DEAL
BY DECLARING HER
SOVIET CITIZENSHIP.
AND SHE CALLED
THE SOVIET EMBASSY
AND THERE ARE A
COUPLE OF LAWYERS
ON THEIR WAY HERE
NOW FROM THE EMBASSY.
WELL, IS... IS THIS WOMAN
IN CUSTODY HERE NOW?
YES, WE HAVE HER DOWNSTAIRS.
I WANT TO SEE HER.
YOU DON'T MIND IF CAPTAIN
WYLER AND I GO ALONG?
NO.
WELL, I GUESS WE CAN FINALLY
PUT THIS ONE TO REST, HUH?
GO BACK TO OUR ORDINARY
RUN OF THE MILL BUSINESS
OF MAYHEM AND MURDER.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
THERE'S STILL SOMETHING
I DON'T GET HERE.
WHAT'S THAT?
WE KNOW THAT ZUKOFF KILLED
JOHN HUMPHREYS
AND RALPH SKINNER.
RIGHT. AND WE KNOW THAT MRS...
EXCUSE ME... COLONEL DANELIAN
KILLED ALLISON CAVALLEY.
SO WHO'S THE GUY
THAT FOLLOWED US
BACK FROM ZUKOFF'S?
THE GUY WHO TOOK HIS
CAR OVER THE L.A. RIVER.
WHAT? WHO WAS THAT?
COME ON! DON'T YOU
KNOW WHO THAT WAS?
NO, I DON'T KNOW WHO
THAT WAS. WHO WAS THAT?
YOU'RE KIDDING?
NO! I'M NOT KIDDING!
WHO WAS THAT?
WHO?! I DON'T KNOW.
OH, YOU MEAN ALLISON CAVALLEY.
I NEVER SHOT A GUN IN MY LIFE.
SHE LIED, DIDN'T SHE?
AND OUR FRIENDS
HERE FROM WASHINGTON
ARE DEEPLY CONCERNED.
Pilot: THIS IS THE UNITED
STATES COAST GUARD.
DID YOU HAVE ANY
LUCK FINDING ZUKOFF?
IF THIS ZUKOFF...
IS THAT HIS NAME?
ZUKOFF IS A KGB AGENT.
KILL HIM.
WE HAD HARD EVIDENCE.
YOU'VE GOT NO EVIDENCE.
WHAT KIND OF EVIDENCE?
I'D LIKE TO SEE THAT EVIDENCE.
I WANT TO GO HOME AND GO TO BED.
WORKS FOR ME.
Narrator: IN PART ONE OF THE
BEAUTIFUL AND THE DEAD...
I KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT THAT
MURDER AT THE MOTEL EXOTICA.
HE HAD A RUSSIAN ACCENT.
DID YOU SEE HIS FACE?
YES.
Cop: TURN TO YOUR LEFT.
OFF THE RECORD, MISS ZUHONIN,
DID ONE OF THEM SEEM CLOSE?
YES. ZUKOFF.
BUT I WOULD NEVER
SWEAR IT WAS HIM.
YOU'RE STILL NOT OFF
THE HOOK WITH US YET.
BECAUSE I'M RUSSIAN?
LOOK, MR. ZUKOFF.
WE DON'T CARE IF
YOU'RE PATAGONIAN.
YOUR ALIBI FOR LAST
FRIDAY NIGHT STINKS.
I GOT HOME TONIGHT
AND FOUND A DEAD BODY
WATCHING MY TELEVISION SET.
I THINK IT'S A FRAME-UP.
I'M TELLING YOU.
THERE WAS A BODY IN THAT CHAIR.
THIS IS THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME
I EVER GOT A MISSING
PERSONS REPORT
WITH NO NAME ATTACHED.
WHY DON'T YOU TELL
ME ALL ABOUT HER, HUH?
WELL, LOOKS LIKE WE'VE
PICKED UP A TAIL HERE.
WELL, LET'S FIND OUT WHO HE IS.
WHY IS IT ALL OF A SUDDEN
I GET THE FEELING WE'RE
IN THE BIG TIME HERE?
A DELEGATION FROM
WASHINGTON JUST TROOPED IN.
WE SEEM TO HAVE COMMON INTEREST
IN A CERTAIN RUSSIAN DEFECTOR
BY THE NAME OF LEO ZUKOFF.
WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO
SUGGEST THAT YOU LAY OFF
UNLESS YOU HAVE CLEAR
AND PLAUSIBLE CAUSE
TO APPROACH HIM.
SO, YOU REPORTED
A WOMAN MISSING?
YES. YEAH, I DID.
WHAT'S HER NAME?
ALLISON CAVALLEY.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE WORKING
ON THE HUMPHREYS CASE?
WE ARE. BUT WE THINK THEY
MIGHT BE THE SAME CASE.
BUT YOU DON'T KNOW HOW SHE DIED?
NO.
HE WAS LEAVING THAT
FOR THE CORONER, CAPTAIN.
HE DIDN'T KNOW THE BODY
WAS GOING TO DISAPPEAR.
YOU ALLISON CAVALLEY?
YES. YOU KNOW WHO SHE IS?
SHE'S MY BEST, CLOSEST FRIEND...
CHRISTY CARLSON.
WELL, SHE RENTED
AN APARTMENT IN L.A.
UNDER YOUR NAME.
WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT?
WAS SHE HIDING FROM SOMEBODY?
I'LL HAVE TO ASK THAT YOU TWO
KEEP MY IDENTITY TO YOURSELVES.
NEXT YOU... YOU'LL BE
ASKING ME IF I KILLED HER.
WELL, DID YOU?
Carlos, on radio:
HUNTER, IT'S CARLOS.
THE BODY YOU'VE BEEN
LOOKING FOR JUST CAME IN.
BUT I THINK YOU'RE IN
FOR A BIG SURPRISE, PAL.
Narrator: AND NOW,
PART 2 OF THE
BEAUTIFUL AND THE DEAD.
HUNTER, MY MAN. WHERE IS SHE?
WHERE'S MY
FAVORITE LITTLE VIXEN?
SHE'S OUTSIDE, CARLOS.
WHERE'S THE BODY?
IS IT HER?
YEAH.
WHERE'D THEY FIND HER?
YOU LIVE IN THE VALLEY,
RIGHT? SHERMAN OAKS?
SHERMAN OAKS, HUH?
BY ACCIDENT.
IN THE STORM DRAIN
AT KEMP AND VENTURA.
THEY WERE LOOKING
FOR A LOST DOG.
WHAT'S THE SURPRISE
YOU HAD TO TELL ME?
WELL, SHE WASN'T
KILLED LIKE YOU SAID, PAL.
HOW WAS SHE KILLED?
OLD-FASHIONED SHOT IN THE BACK.
.22 CALIBER BULLET ENTERED,
WENT THROUGH HER HEART,
RICOCHETED OFF HER RIB...
ENDED UP IN HER DUODENUM.
AUTOMATIC WEAPON...
PROBABLY... WITH A SILENCER.
HMM. WAS THERE ANY EVIDENCE
THAT SHE WAS RUNNING AT
THE TIME SHE WAS KILLED?
HMM. FOR SUBTLE AND TOTALLY
UNRELIABLE INFORMATION
OF THAT KIND, I
REFER YOU TO THE M.E.,
WHO IS NOT IN AT
THIS POINT IN TIME.
WELL, THIS IS A SURPRISE
THAT SHE WAS SHOT.
I NEED THAT BULLET.
THE M.E. SENT IT TO THE LAB
WITH... AT MY SUGGESTION...
YOUR NAME ON THE TAG.
OK. GOOD. APPRECIATE IT. THANKS.
SO, WHAT HAVE WE GOT HERE?
SHE CALLED A CAB.
YOU'LL GET TO THE AIRPORT FASTER
RIDING WITH US.
I KNOW...
BUT THE CAB DRIVER WON'T
ACCUSE ME OF MURDER.
WAS IT CHRISTY CARLSON?
YES, IT WAS.
SHE'S DEAD?
YES, SHE IS. SHOT
RIGHT IN THE BACK
WITH A .22 CALIBER HANDGUN.
I NEVER SHOT A GUN IN MY LIFE.
NOT EVEN AT A TIN CAN!
MISS HUMPHREYS, THERE'S
ALWAYS A FIRST TIME,
ISN'T THERE?
ALL 3 OF YOU?
Humphreys: JUST
ME. TO THE AIRPORT.
OH, UNLESS YOU'VE DECIDED
I CAN'T LEAVE THE JURISDICTION.
THAT IS THE WORD, ISN'T IT?
YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH DO
WHAT YOU WANT, MS. HUMPHREYS.
BUT I'M STILL A SUSPECT?
A SUSPECT IS
SOMEBODY WITH MOTIVE,
OPPORTUNITY, AND A LOUSY ALIBI.
YOU'RE A SUSPECT.
CALL MY DAUGHTER.
SHE'LL TELL YOU
I WAS IN PALO ALTO THAT
DAY... ALL DAY... WITH HER.
I'M SURE SHE WILL,
MS. HUMPHREYS.
DRIVER, ON THE
WAY TO THE AIRPORT,
ACCUSE HER OF MURDER A
COUPLE OF TIMES, WILL YOU?
Woman: HUNTER.
MIKE HARRISON'S BEEN LOOKING
FOR YOU GUYS LIKE CRAZY.
HE WENT BACK TO HIS OFFICE.
HOLD THAT.
MIKE? HUNTER.
REALLY? OK, WE'LL GET
OVER THERE RIGHT AWAY.
THANKS, MIKE.
WELL, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH
RALPH CALLED BIG MIKE.
HE'S GOT SOMETHING
HE WANTS TO SHOW US.
BUT HE DOESN'T
WANT TO TALK TO US
OVER THE PHONE
ABOUT IT. COME ON.
WHO IS IT?
SERGEANT McCALL.
SERGEANT HUNTER.
I'VE BEEN TRYING
TO LOCATE YOU TWO.
I'VE TRIED EVERYWHERE.
I EVEN TRIED MISSING
PERSONS UP IN SAN FRANCISCO.
I FOUND OUT YOU GUYS
WERE HOMICIDE DETECTIVES.
I'M A LITTLE SCARED.
AND I'VE GOT
SOMETHING TO SHOW YOU.
J-JUST SIT DOWN.
TAKE A LOOK AT THAT.
NOW, I HADN'T
DEVELOPED THAT ONE YET
WHEN I SAW YOU THE FIRST TIME.
A PICTURE OF CHRISTY. SO WHAT?
IT'S MORE OF THE SAME, RALPH.
TAKE A CLOSER LOOK.
HERE. LOOK AT IT
UNDER THE LIGHT.
WELL, THAT'S A
PICTURE OF ZUKOFF.
McCall: SURE IS.
Ralph: MAYBE THIS'LL HELP.
I BLEW UP JUST THAT
PART OF THE SHOT.
THIS IS A LITTLE
BIT BETTER SHOT.
CAN I TAKE THIS?
YEAH, SURE. I GOT THE NEGATIVE.
WHO... WHO IS ZUKOFF?
HOW LONG AGO WAS
THIS PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN?
THAT WAS THE
LAST TIME I SAW HER.
IT'S PROBABLY THE DAY SHE DIED.
WHAT?
IT WAS PROBABLY TAKEN
ON THE DAY SHE DISAPPEARED.
THANKS, RALPH.
HE'S IN THERE.
THEIR LIPS ARE SAYING NO,
BUT THEIR EYES ARE SAYING YES.
DOESN'T MAKE ANY
DIFFERENCE, McCALL.
TOMORROW WE GET
THE TROOPS IN HERE
AND GET A WARRANT
FOR HIS ARREST.
YEAH, WHAT ABOUT
THAT HARD-NOSED JERK
FROM WASHINGTON
THAT WARNED US TO LAY OFF, HUH?
YEAH, HE'S A JERK ALL RIGHT,
BUT HE'S GOT HIS JOB
AND WE'VE GOT OURS.
AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED,
THIS ZUKOFF CHARACTER
IS A LOOSE WARHEAD.
IT'S LATE.
I'LL TAKE YOU HOME.
YOU NEED SOME SLEEP.
HEH. SO DO YOU, BIG GUY.
COME ON.
AAH!
UNH!
UHH!
UNH!
Woman: SERGEANT HUNTER!
SERGEANT HUNTER?
HARVEY, QUICK!
CALL AN AMBULANCE!
HOW YOU FEELING, HUNTER?
I'M ALL RIGHT, GENE.
HOW MANY FINGERS?
ARE YOU KIDDING?
NO. HOW MANY FINGERS?
LET'S SEE... I THINK THERE'S
ABOUT 3 OF THEM THERE.
YEAH, 3. I'LL GO WITH 3.
Zukoff: I DO NOT BELIEVE
YOU MAKE ONLY ONE PRINT.
WHERE ARE OTHERS?
I SWEAR... I ONLY
MADE ONE OF EACH.
WHY WOULD I MAKE MORE THAN ONE?
BUT YOU DID.
AND I KNOW IT.
I DIDN'T! PLEASE!
YOU'VE GOT THE NEGATIVE.
THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT!
TAKE TWO OF THESE EVERY 4 HOURS.
EXCUSE ME.
WERE YOU IN YOUR
JAMMIES WHEN THEY CALLED?
YEAH, I WAS IN MY J...
I GOT DRESSED AGAIN.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
WHAT HAPPENED?
I'M FINE. GET IN.
YOU'RE DRIVING.
UGH! YOU'RE GONNA
TAKE THOSE ASPIRIN
WITHOUT ANY WATER?
MM-HMM.
YEP.
THIS IS L-56.
SEND A COUPLE OF
BLACK-AND-WHITES
OVER TO 3142 PARK
TERRACE IN BRENTWOOD.
RUN A CODE 3.
McCALL AND I ARE
EN ROUTE. L-56 OUT.
3 GUYS THAT JUMPED
ME TOOK THE PICTURE.
WE GOTTA ROLL.
TELL ME!
HE'S TELLING THE TRUTH.
KILL HIM.
GOT THE PHOTOGRAPHS.
I AM NOT ARMENIAN,
AND I WOULD PREFER
YOU SPEAK RUSSIAN OR
ENGLISH WHEN I AM PRESENT.
YOU WILL GO BACK TO
YOUR PLACE AND WAIT.
YOU'LL BE PICKED
UP WITHIN THE HOUR.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN PICKED UP?
I HAVE ARRANGED FOR
YOU TO RETURN BACK HOME.
BUT WHY?
EVERYTHING'S SETTLED.
THIS WAS MERELY A
POLICE CASE. NOW IT'S...
IT'S FINISHED.
YOU ARE TO RETURN HOME TONIGHT.
BEFORE YOU MAKE ANOTHER MISTAKE
AND EXPOSE ME AS WELL.
DID YOU SEND FOR AN M.E.?
YES, SIR. THEY SHOULD
BE HERE ANY MOMENT.
THEY GOT THE NEGATIVE.
THE WHOLE ROOM'S TRASHED.
HIYA, BARNEY.
WELL, WHAT'VE WE GOT THIS TIME?
I DON'T KNOW. TAKE A LOOK.
LOOKS LIKE HE WAS KILLED
THE SAME WAY THAT
JOHN HUMPHREYS WAS.
YEAH? SAME SPOT?
YEAH, SAME PLACE.
PROBABLY THE
SAME STILETTO BLADE.
WHAT IS IT? WHAT'S HAPPENING?
IT'S OK.
DID YOU HEAR
ANYBODY, MS. DANELIAN?
NO... NOTHING.
DID YOU SEE ANYBODY?
ANYBODY NEW THAT YOU
HAVEN'T SEEN BEFORE?
ANYONE AT ALL?
NOTHING.
OH, I'M SORRY!
LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.
YOU KNOW WE'RE
GOING TO HAVE TO GET
A SEARCH WARRANT IF
WE'RE GOING AFTER ZUKOFF.
GOTTA FIND OUT
WHERE HE IS FIRST.
LOOK, I DON'T CARE
WHAT YOU'VE GOTTA DO.
I WANT A WARRANT ISSUED
FOR ZUKOFF'S ARREST.
SUSPICION OF MURDER.
NOW, GET WITH IT!
L-56 OUT.
YOU KNOW, THE GREATER
RUSSIAN SOCIAL CLUB'S
GONNA BE LOCKED UP
TIGHT AT 3:00 IN THE MORNING.
I HOPE SO.
HEY, PULL OVER HERE.
CUT YOUR LIGHTS.
ZUKOFF'S GOTTA BE
IN THAT LIMOUSINE.
McCall: WANT TO CALL FOR BACKUP?
NO, NO, NO. NOT YET.
I WANT TO SEE WHERE
HE'S GOING FIRST.
WHAT'VE WE GOT HERE?
THEY'RE GONNA CHECK US OUT.
JUST PLAY IT STRAIGHT.
THIS IS L-56. SEND A
PARAMEDIC AND A BACKUP
TO THE CORNERS
OF MIDVALE AND PICO.
THERE'S BEEN A CAR CRASH.
ARREST THE OCCUPANTS. L-56 OUT.
THIS IS L-56.
WE'RE IN PURSUIT OF A
BLACK STRETCH LIMOUSINE
HEADED WEST ON PICO
BOULEVARD JUST WEST OF ARCHER.
REQUEST A BACKUP.
CODE 3. L-56 OUT.
WE LOST THE LIMO, HUNTER.
THEY'VE GOTTA BE HEADED
FOR COAST HIGHWAY.
WHAT DO I WANT TO DO...
GO NORTH OR SOUTH?
GO NORTH.
THIS IS L-56. CONTACT
WEST L.A. DISPATCH.
THERE'S A BLACK-AND-WHITE
HEADED WEST ON PICO BOULEVARD.
WE WANT THE UNIT DESIGNATION.
Dispatch Officer: 10-4.
L-56, THAT UNIT IS 17 ADAM 32.
HAVE HIM SWITCH TO
FREQUENCY 17, PLEASE.
Dispatch: 10-4.
17-A-32, COME IN.
Cop: THIS IS 17 ADAM 32.
Hunter: THIS IS L-56.
WE'RE TURNING NORTH
ON PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR A
BLACK STRETCH LIMOUSINE.
WE'D LIKE YOU TO GO SOUTH.
IF YOU FIND IT, CALL US, BUT
DO NOT OVERTAKE, COPY?
Cop: 10-4.
HEY, HEY, HEY. THERE IT IS.
I COUNTED 4. HOW 'BOUT YOU?
YEAH. AND I SWEAR
ONE OF 'EM WAS ZUKOFF.
YEAH.
BRODER? HUNTER.
WHAT THE HELL? WHAT TIME IS IT?
WELL, IT'S 4:00 AM AND THERE'S
TROUBLE IN RIVER CITY, PAL.
WHAT? HUNTER, HOW
DID YOU GET THIS NUMBER?
I'M A DETECTIVE, REMEMBER?
LISTEN, I THINK YOU'VE
GOT A PROBLEM HERE.
A BOAT JUST LEFT MALIBU,
AND I THINK ZUKOFF WAS ON IT.
IF HE IS, YOU'RE THE
ONE WITH THE PROBLEM.
NOW, GET THE HELL OFF THE PHONE.
I'VE GOT TO CALL
THE COAST GUARD.
I'VE ALREADY DONE THAT, BRODER.
NOW, IF YOU WANT
TO TALK TO ME MORE
ABOUT THIS PROBLEM,
I'LL BE IN MY OFFICE.
GOOD NIGHT.
HUNTER?
DAMN!
HE'S SITTING AT YOUR DESK.
I HATE THAT MORE THAN ANYTHING.
Broder: ANY WORD
FROM THE COAST GUARD?
WHY IS IT EVERYBODY
DUMPS ON MY DESK?
NOBODY EVER DUMPS ON
YOUR DESK. WHY IS THAT? WHAT?
I SAID IS THERE ANY WORD
FROM THE COAST GUARD?
NO.
NO WORD. DID YOU HAVE
ANY LUCK FINDING ZUKOFF?
NO, HE'S GONE.
WHAT SCARED HIM? WHY DID HE RUN?
HE RAN BECAUSE WE FOUND A
HARD, SOLID PIECE OF EVIDENCE
THAT COULD HAVE PUT
HIM AWAY FOR MURDER.
YEAH, AND HE TOOK IT WITH HIM.
WHAT KIND OF EVIDENCE?
McCall: PHOTOGRAPH.
SHOWING HIM IN THE
APARTMENT OF CHRISTY CARLSON...
PROBABLY TAKEN ON THE
DAY SHE WAS MURDERED.
Hunter: YOU SEE,
ZUKOFF SENT OVER
A COUPLE OF MUSCLEBRAINS
TO ROUGH ME UP
AND TAKE THE PHOTOGRAPH,
WHICH THEY DID.
HE ALSO GOT THE NEGATIVE
BY KILLING RALPH,
THE PHOTOGRAPHER.
HE STABBED HIM
EXACTLY THE SAME WAY
HE STABBED JOHN HUMPHREYS.
YOU GOT ANY
COFFEE IN THIS PLACE?
RIGHT OVER THERE. PRIVACY?
RIGHT BACK THERE.
Pilot: THIS IS THE UNITED
STATES COAST GUARD.
YOU ARE ORDERED TO
ALTER YOUR COURSE...
TO PORT YOUR VESSEL
AT MARINA DEL REY.
THROW YOUR WEAPONS OVER
THE SIDE AND RAISE YOUR HANDS.
I REPEAT, THROW YOUR
WEAPONS OVER THE SIDE
AND RAISE YOUR HANDS.
Pilot: WE WILL STAY WITH YOU
UNTIL YOU ARE INTERCEPTED
BY A PATROL BOAT.
I NEVER HEARD OF
CHRISTY CARLSON.
WHO IS SHE?
McCall: WHAT ABOUT
ALLISON CAVALLEY?
NO.
MY PARTNER AND I WERE
SENT TO SANTA CLARA
BECAUSE HUMPHREYS CALLED
THE U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE...
AND THEY CALLED US.
THAT WAS AROUND THE TIME
THERE WAS A WHOLE SLEW
OF ARRESTS BEING
MADE FOR ESPIONAGE.
AND THOSE PEOPLE WERE
EYEBALLING THE DEATH PENALTY.
AND HUMPHREYS... WELL,
HE SOUNDED SCARED.
SOMEONE TRYING TO MAKE A DEAL.
A WAY OUT OF SOME BIG TROUBLE.
BUT WHEN WE GOT
THERE, HE DID A SWITCH.
GAVE US SOME PHONY
SONG AND DANCE.
WE COULDN'T TURN HIM AROUND.
WELL, I THOUGHT YOU SAID
HE HAD NO CONNECTION
WITH ZUKOFF.
I'M NOT ALLOWED TO
DISCUSS ZUKOFF WITH YOU
OR ANYONE ELSE
OUTSIDE OF MY AGENCY.
WELL, WHAT AGENCY WAS THAT?
YOU CAN'T TALK ABOUT ZUKOFF
'CAUSE HE'S A SPY, RIGHT?
HE BUYS HIGH-TECH SECRETS,
PROTOTYPES, THAT SORT OF THING.
YOU TWO BETTER PRAY
TO GOD YOU CAN SHOW
STRONG CAUSE FOR
LEANING ON ZUKOFF,
ESPECIALLY AFTER YOU
WERE GIVEN FAIR WARNING
TO KNOCK IT OFF.
BECAUSE IF YOU CAN'T,
YOU AND YOUR IMMEDIATE SUPERIORS
ARE IN DEEP, DEEP SQUAT.
LET'S SEE NOW,
IT WENT LIKE THIS, RIGHT?
ZUKOFF IS A KGB
AGENT. YOU KNEW THAT.
BUT HE DIDN'T KNOW
THAT YOU KNEW IT.
IS THAT RIGHT?
IF YOU WOULD HAVE TOLD
US THAT ZUKOFF WAS KGB,
WE WOULD HAVE STAYED CLEAR.
BUT YOU TOLD US THAT HE
WAS A FRIENDLY DEFECTOR.
AND I'M NOT TELLING YOU
ANYTHING DIFFERENT NOW.
THIS KGB CRAP...
THAT'S YOUR SCENARIO.
AREN'T WE ON THE SAME
SIDE HERE, BRODER?
WE'RE NOT EVEN
ON THE SAME PLANET!
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING ELSE.
IF ZUKOFF WAS KGB,
AND HE DIDN'T KNOW
THAT WE KNEW...
THAT'D BE PURE GOLD.
AND SCARING HIM
INTO TAKING A POWDER
WOULD PUT YOU TWO
ON THE WRONG SIDE.
THANKS FOR THE COFFEE.
YOU BETTER PRAY TO GOD
YOU CAN GET ANOTHER
COPY OF THAT PHOTOGRAPH.
SOUNDS LIKE THE
ONLY HARD EVIDENCE
YOU TWO... UH...
SPORTS EVER HAD.
I WANT TO GO HOME AND GO TO BED.
I KNOW THE ANSWER.
WHAT ANSWER?
ALLISON CAVALLEY.
WANT TO HEAR IT?
ON THE WAY HOME IN THE CAR.
McCall: REMEMBER WHAT
ALLISON CAVALLEY TOLD US
ABOUT CHRISTY AND HER
MAN? THAT IN A YEAR OR TWO
ALL HER PLANS WOULD BE
LOCKED IN. REMEMBER THAT?
YEAH, SO YOU THINK
THAT SHE KNEW WHAT
HUMPHREYS WAS UP TO?
KNEW ABOUT IT? SHE
WAS INVOLVED IN IT!
SHE KNEW ZUKOFF. SHE HAD TO.
WHEN HUMPHREYS GOT
SCARED, SHE GOT SCARED...
AND THAT'S WHEN
SHE RAN TO ZUKOFF.
OK. THEN WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT?
TO GET HER PLANS BACK ON
TRACK, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?
AND IT WORKED, DIDN'T IT?
'CAUSE ZUKOFF UPPED THE ANTE
OR SOMETHING AND KEPT
HUMPHREYS RIGHT IN LINE.
AT LEAST LONG ENOUGH FOR
ZUKOFF TO GET HIM DOWN HERE
'TIL HE COULD TAKE HIM OUT.
YEAH.
YEAH.
Dispatch: L-56, WE HAVE THE
COAST GUARD ON THE LINE.
PATCH 'EM THROUGH.
Dispatch: I KNEW YOU'D SAY THAT.
Man: ALL RIGHT.
TURN ALL 3 OF THEM
AND THEIR BOAT OVER
TO THE U.S. MARSHAL.
THE 3 MEN ARE REFUSING
TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS
UNTIL THEIR ATTORNEY GETS HERE,
SO WE CAN'T TALK TO THEM NOW.
WELL, THAT FIGURES.
DO THEY HAVE PAPERS?
THEY CLAIM TO BE U.S. CITIZENS.
MAYBE THEY ARE. IF
ZUKOFF... IS THAT HIS NAME?
YEAH.
IF HE DOESN'T WASH UP
ON ONE OF OUR BEACHES,
THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO HOLD THEM.
AND THE CHANCES OF YOU
FINDING ANY FINGERPRINTS
ON THAT BOAT ARE PRETTY SLIM.
A BOAT LIKE THAT CAN DO
OVER 90 KNOTS, CAN'T IT?
THAT'S RIGHT.
IS THERE ANY REPORTS OF
RUSSIAN SHIPS IN THE AREA?
3 NOTIFICATIONS TODAY
OF SPECIAL INTEREST VESSELS
ON THEIR WAY OUT OF PORT.
YOU GOT A SECURE
PHONE I CAN USE IN PRIVATE.
YEAH, SURE. UM...
THEY COULD HAVE RENDEZVOUSED...
WITH ANY ONE OF THOSE VESSELS.
TANKS WERE DOWN TO VAPOR
WHEN WE PICKED THEM UP.
YEAH. APPRECIATE
IT. THANKS VERY MUCH.
SURE. GOOD LUCK.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WE'RE NOT TAKING ANY CALLS,
AND YOU'RE TAKING ME HOME.
WHY? YOU'VE BEEN
SLEEPING ALL DAY.
LOOK, I NEED SOME
SLEEP, OK? TAKE ME HOME.
THAT JERK FROM WASHINGTON
IS GONNA HASSLE US TOMORROW,
AND UNLESS I GET SOME
SLEEP, I'M GONNA PUNCH HIM OUT.
OOH! FEISTY, HUH?
LITTLE BANTAM ROOSTER.
HEY, LISTEN. SEEING
THAT YOU'RE SO FEISTY,
HOW ABOUT YOU AND I CHECK
INTO THE MOTEL EXOTICA.
I GOT A TRUNK FULL OF
APPARATUS BACK THERE.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
OH! WONDERFUL! SOUNDS GREAT!
TIME OUT ON THAT, DOLL.
LET'S DO IT SOME OTHER TIME.
I NEED TO GO HOME AND
SLEEP IN MY OWN BED...
DISCONNECT THE PHONE.
YOU WANT A BORING NIGHT'S SLEEP,
THAT'S UP TO YOU.
THAT'S WHAT I WANT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
HA HA! MOTEL EXOTICA!
Man: AND OUR FRIENDS
HERE FROM WASHINGTON
ARE DEEPLY CONCERNED.
SHOULD THEIR CONCERNS
PROVE LEGITIMATE,
CHIEF HAS AUTHORIZED ME TO
LAUNCH A FULL INVESTIGATION
INTO YOUR HANDLING OF THIS CASE
AND THE CONDUCT
OF THESE 3 OFFICERS
IN THE MATTER OF LEO ZUKOFF.
WELL, WE'D JUST LIKE
TO HAVE A LITTLE LIGHT
SHED ON WHAT THESE CONCERNS ARE.
ONLY A FEW DAYS
AGO... IN THIS OFFICE...
I ASKED YOU, CAPTAIN,
I ASKED YOU, SERGEANT HUNTER,
AND YOU SERGEANT McCALL,
TO GO EASY ON LEO ZUKOFF...
TO LAY OFF WERE
MY EXACT WORDS...
UNLESS YOU HAD CLEAR
AND SUPPORTABLE CAUSE.
AM I CORRECT IN THAT?
WE HAD CAUSE FOR
EVERYTHING THAT WE DID.
OH. YOU HAD FURTHER
INFORMATION? EVIDENCE?
OTHER THAN THE
OPINION OF A WITNESS
WHO REFUSED TO CONFIRM
THAT EVIDENCE UNDER OATH?
Hunter: WE HAD HARD EVIDENCE
LINKING ZUKOFF WITH
CHRISTY CARLSON.
I'D LIKE TO SEE THAT EVIDENCE.
WELL, SO WOULD I.
BUT, AS YOU KNOW, I LOST IT.
SO, IN OTHER WORDS...
AS FAR AS WE KNOW...
THAT EVIDENCE NEVER
REALLY EXISTED, DID IT?
LOOK, HUNTER GOT ATTACKED
OUTSIDE HIS OWN HOME
BY 3 PROFESSIONALS AND
THE EVIDENCE WAS TAKEN.
AT THE SAME TIME
THAT WAS GOING DOWN,
THE PHOTOGRAPHER WAS KILLED,
AND THAT WAS PROBABLY BY ZUKOFF.
AND HE GOT THE DAMN
NEGATIVE, ALL RIGHT?
YOU GOT NO EVIDENCE.
ISN'T THAT THE BOTTOM LINE?
IT LOOKS PRETTY BAD, YEAH.
MR. WATERSON...
WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON HERE?
LET ME GIVE YOU A
DAMAGE REPORT, FOLKS.
LEO ZUKOFF WAS A KGB AGENT
WHO DIDN'T KNOW
WE HAD HIM ON LINE.
A VITAL, SECOND-LEVEL AGENT
WHO WAS ABOUT TO LEAD US
TO HIS TOP-LEVEL
SUPERIOR AT ANY MOMENT...
UNTIL YOU TWO FATALLY
IMPACTED OUR CASE ACTION.
ANYTHING TO ADD, CAPTAIN?
YEAH. FIRST OF ALL,
LIEUTENANT FINN
WAS IN NO WAY
INVOLVED IN THIS CASE.
AND SECONDLY, SERGEANTS
HUNTER AND McCALL
WERE OPERATING AT ALL
TIMES UNDER MY INSTRUCTIONS.
YOU'RE EXCUSED, LIEUTENANT.
YOU, TOO, SERGEANTS.
HOLD IT! JUST A SECOND, YOU TWO.
I GOTTA COUPLE OF QUESTIONS
I WANT TO ASK YOU ON THIS.
NOT RIGHT NOW, AMBROSE.
WE GOT A LOT OF THINGS TO DO.
NUMBER ONE IS TO PUSH THIS CASE
RIGHT DOWN WATERSON'S THROAT.
ISN'T THAT RIGHT? COME ON.
WHERE WE GOING?
LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION.
HOW DID ZUKOFF KNOW
THAT I HAD THAT PHOTOGRAPH?
HE HAD TO HAVE BEEN AT
RALPH'S APARTMENT, RIGHT?
NOW, JUST PERHAPS... MAYBE...
ONE OF THOSE AIRHEADS
AT THE POOL SAW SOMETHING.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT?
I THINK IT'S WORTH CHECKING OUT.
YOU KNOW, IT'S WONDERFUL WHAT
A COUPLE HOURS' SLEEP WILL DO.
YEAH, MAKES YOU WHOLE.
SO, WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?
ZUKOFF WASN'T THERE.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN
ZUKOFF WASN'T THERE?
WHEN WE WENT TO SEE RALPH...
THE NIGHT HE GAVE
US THOSE PICTURES...
I SAW SOMEBODY
WATCHING US AS WE CAME IN.
IT WASN'T ZUKOFF.
IT WAS THE MANAGER.
MS. DANELIAN?
SHE WATCHED US
GO UP THOSE STAIRS.
NOW, YOU REMEMBER
THE NIGHT WE WENT BACK
AFTER RALPH WAS KILLED?
YEAH.
WE ASKED HER SPECIFICALLY...
DID YOU HEAR ANYTHING?
DID YOU SEE ANYONE?
REMEMBER WHAT SHE SAID?
YEAH. SHE SAID SHE HADN'T
SEEN OR HEARD ANYBODY.
BUT, IN FACT, SHE
HAD. SHE HAD SEEN US.
THAT'S RIGHT.
SHE LIED, DIDN'T SHE?
YOU KNOW, YOU OUGHT
TO BE A DETECTIVE.
YEAH, THAT'S WHAT
MY MOM ALWAYS SAID.
WELL, I THINK IT'S ABOUT TIME
WE GET OURSELVES A
WARRANT FOR MS. DANELIAN.
I AGREE. SPECIFYING WHAT?
ONE .22 CALIBER HAND PISTOL
WITH A SOUND SUPPRESSOR.
I KNEW ZUKOFF DIDN'T
KILL CHRISTY CARLSON.
WRONG WEAPON.
MAY I HELP YOU?
YEAH. WE'D LIKE
TO TALK WITH YOU.
CERTAINLY. WHAT IS IT?
YOU DO REMEMBER US, DON'T YOU?
OF COURSE. YOU
ARE WITH THE POLICE.
MAY I ASK WHAT YOU
WISH TO TALK TO ME ABOUT?
POOR MR. SKINNER, PERHAPS.
PERHAPS.
CAN WE TALK ABOUT IT OUT HERE?
NO, I'M AFRAID WE CAN'T.
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY NOT.
WELL, MAYBE THIS
WILL EXPLAIN WHY.
IT SAYS HERE THE ONLY
THING YOU'RE SEARCHING FOR
IS A .22 CALIBER HANDGUN.
I DO NOT HAVE SUCH A THING.
THEN WE CAN GO
INSIDE AND TAKE A LOOK
AND BE SURE OF THAT, RIGHT?
I WISH FIRST TO TALK
TO MY ATTORNEY.
GOOD. LET'S GO IN.
OH. MS. DANELIAN,
HOLD THE PHONE.
WE'LL MAKE OUR SEARCH.
IF WE FIND THE GUN,
YOU'LL BE ARRESTED.
THEN YOU CAN MAKE
YOUR PHONE CALL.
THANK YOU.
GO AHEAD.
LOOK FOR A GUN.
Danelian: YOU WILL NOT FIND ONE.
YEAH, IT'S SERGEANT RICK HUNTER.
SEND OVER A PARAMEDIC,
A BLACK-AND-WHITE, AND AN M.E.
TO 3142 PARK TERRACE,
BRENTWOOD. CODE 3. THANKS.
I WANT TO MAKE A PHONE CALL.
I'M SURE YOU DO.
TELL ME ABOUT CHRISTY CARLSON.
WHY DID YOU REMOVE
HER BODY FROM MY HOUSE?
DIDN'T YOU THINK
ANYBODY WOULD FIND HER?
IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE.
THE BULLET THAT KILLED
HER CAME FROM THIS GUN.
WE'LL BE ABLE TO PROVE
THAT, THANKS TO YOU.
I WISH TO MAKE A PHONE CALL.
WELL, WE'RE GONNA TURN YOU OVER
TO A FELLOW FROM
WASHINGTON, D.C.
VERY UNPLEASANT FELLOW.
THE PHONE CALL
WILL BE UP TO HIM.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO LIKE
HIM MUCH, MS. DANELIAN,
BUT HE'S GONNA LOVE YOU.
AMBROSE? HUNTER.
DO ME A FAVOR, WILL YOU?
GET A HOLD OF CAPTAIN WYLER.
HAVE HIM FIND OUT
WHERE WATERSON IS.
I'VE GOT SOMETHING VERY
SPECIAL HE MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN.
Hunter: THANKS.
TO BURBANK.
Hunter: JERRY.
HOW YOU DOING?
HEY, HOW YOU DOING?
GOOD. COMING OR GOING?
GOING. AND I'M LATE.
I GOTTA GET BACK TO THE AIRPORT.
I GOT 40 MINUTES
TO CATCH A PLANE.
WELL, I DON'T THINK
YOU HAVE TO RUSH.
THERE'S A FLIGHT TO SAN
FRANCISCO EVERY HOUR.
I KNOW, BUT I'VE GOTTA GET BACK.
LISTEN, I LEFT A LETTER
WITH LIEUTENANT
FINN FOR YOU GUYS.
DOES THE NAME RALPH
SKINNER MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU?
YEAH. DID HE WRITE YOU A LETTER?
NO. IT WAS ADDRESSED TO
YOU. "IMPORTANT/CONFIDENTIAL."
SOMEHOW IT FOUND ITS WAY TO ME.
WELL, WAS IT? IMPORTANT?
WELL, IT BETTER BE.
ROUND-TRIP FARE'S $89.
I'M KIDDING, BUT I
DIDN'T OPEN THE LETTER.
DID THE ENVELOPE SEEM TO
HAVE A PHOTOGRAPH INSIDE?
THAT'S WHY I DECIDED
TO BRING IT DOWN
INSTEAD OF MAIL IT TO YOU.
IT'LL HELP US OUT A LOT. THANKS.
GOOD. GOOD. SURE IS.
SURE WE CAN'T TALK YOU
INTO STAYING FOR DINNER?
I GOT 10 DAYS COMING NEXT MONTH.
I'LL TAKE YOU UP ON IT THEN, OK?
GREAT. HAVE A GOOD FLIGHT.
THANK YOU.
BYE-BYE. TAKE CARE.
WILL DO. BYE.
AND THANK YOU!
YOU GOT IT.
THAT THING DOESN'T MAKE
ONE DAMN BIT OF DIFFERENCE.
THE LOSS OF ZUKOFF
WAS AVOIDABLE.
IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.
THERE'S MORE, MR. WATERSON.
COLONEL DANELIAN, KGB.
WE ARRESTED HER ON
FIRST-DEGREE MURDER.
SHE WAS ZUKOFF'S BOSS,
THE ONE YOU COULDN'T FIND.
I DON'T SEE ANYTHING
HERE ABOUT KGB
OR ANYTHING ABOUT ZUKOFF.
WELL, THAT'S JUST THE WAY
THE ARREST REPORT READS.
ACTUALLY, SHE THOUGHT
SHE COULD GET A BETTER DEAL
BY DECLARING HER
SOVIET CITIZENSHIP.
AND SHE CALLED
THE SOVIET EMBASSY
AND THERE ARE A
COUPLE OF LAWYERS
ON THEIR WAY HERE
NOW FROM THE EMBASSY.
WELL, IS... IS THIS WOMAN
IN CUSTODY HERE NOW?
YES, WE HAVE HER DOWNSTAIRS.
I WANT TO SEE HER.
YOU DON'T MIND IF CAPTAIN
WYLER AND I GO ALONG?
NO.
WELL, I GUESS WE CAN FINALLY
PUT THIS ONE TO REST, HUH?
GO BACK TO OUR ORDINARY
RUN OF THE MILL BUSINESS
OF MAYHEM AND MURDER.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
THERE'S STILL SOMETHING
I DON'T GET HERE.
WHAT'S THAT?
WE KNOW THAT ZUKOFF KILLED
JOHN HUMPHREYS
AND RALPH SKINNER.
RIGHT. AND WE KNOW THAT MRS...
EXCUSE ME... COLONEL DANELIAN
KILLED ALLISON CAVALLEY.
SO WHO'S THE GUY
THAT FOLLOWED US
BACK FROM ZUKOFF'S?
THE GUY WHO TOOK HIS
CAR OVER THE L.A. RIVER.
WHAT? WHO WAS THAT?
COME ON! DON'T YOU
KNOW WHO THAT WAS?
NO, I DON'T KNOW WHO
THAT WAS. WHO WAS THAT?
YOU'RE KIDDING?
NO! I'M NOT KIDDING!
WHO WAS THAT?
WHO?! I DON'T KNOW.
