GAGE: Well, the
girls can stop griping.
We are finally
getting our tuxedos.
You know, this place
looks a little expensive, huh?
Rossini's is probably
the hottest men's shop
in the entire metroplex.
Guys, it's not who you
know, it's who knows you.
Hey, how did you guys get
to know Rossini anyway?
Well, actually, Giovanni Rossini
was once known as Johnny Rose.
Yeah, Walker and I busted
him for truck hijacking
about six years ago.
You know what? I
remember that bust.
So he's Johnny Rose, huh?
Yup. Picked up his trade at
the University of Huntsville,
courtesy of the State of Texas.
(in Italian accent): Hey, my
friends, is so good to see you again.
Johnny, what's with the accent?
(in normal voice):
Oh, sorry, Trivette.
Force of habit.
You know, you put
on an Italian accent,
people go nuts.
They don't come here
just to buy clothes.
They come for una esperienza.
That's great. Where's our tuxes?
Fresh off the boat from Napoli.
Check this out.
You guys are gonna
look like a million bucks.
Oh, wow, molto bene.
C.D.'s still coming, right?
Oh, yeah. His ship arrives
in Tokyo Thursday evening.
He's got a flight scheduled
for Friday morning.
These are great.
What do I owe you?
Please, Walker.
This is my gift to you
and your lovely bride.
If it wasn't for you
turning my life around...
I put you in prison, Johnny.
You turned your life around.
Yeah, I know, but
do you remember
what you said to me at my trial?
You said, "Johnny, you're
a lot smarter than this.
"When you get
out, try honest work
and you'll make more money."
So I took your advice.
Johnny Rose died in
Huntsville. I was reborn.
I'm Giovanni
Rossini, entrepreneur.
(laughs)
Let this be a wedding present
from Giovanni, okay?
Thanks, Giovanni.
Why don't you let
me grab yours, Mark?
I'd appreciate it.
Now be careful with the tuxedos.
Don't wrinkle them.
TRIVETTE: Will you relax?
Nothing's gonna happen
to the tuxes, Walker.
I know, I know.
I guess I just got the...
pre-wedding
jitters or something.
Look, I'm gonna drop
Mark off and I'll, uh...
I'll see you guys at Ranger
Headquarters, okay?
Oh, okay. Okay.
(laughs)
You know, Walker, I
thought about going
into law enforcement
at one time.
Really?
Yeah, but the computer
age got me instead.
Well, that's not a
bad alternative, Mark.
(Gage and Trivette laughing)
I have never seen
Walker so nervous.
Oh, my goodness.
Grab my hat, will you?
Yeah. Hey, you know, the
only person more nervous
than Walker is Sydney.
Why is Sydney nervous?
Sydney has been
worried since day one
that we weren't
gonna get these tuxes
in time for the wedding.
Women, they worry. Yep.
DISPATCHER (on radio): All
units, report of a 2-11 in progress
at the First Bank
of South Dallas
on the corner of
Abrams and Montfort.
Hey, you know what?
That's like three
blocks from here.
Yeah, let's get
on it. All right.
(indistinct shouting)
(alarm blaring)
(gunshots)
Whoops. Ah!
Oh... Oh.
Uh, sorry about your
car. Sorry about the car?
Walker's gonna kill us!
The tuxes! Yes!
The tuxes!
Oh, man!
Hey, we should
just go to Australia.
That's not far enough.
It's not far enough,
is it? Shoot!
(grunts)
Get down!
Yeah, yeah, get down!
You have no idea how
much trouble we're in!
( suspenseful theme playing)
(computer beeping)
Hi.
Pretty, isn't she?

ALEX: Your Honor,
Mr. Carter's prior arrests
and convictions go
to establish a pattern
of unlawful behavior
and a complete
disregard for the law.
And it is precisely the
rule of law, Your Honor,
that should prevent
this information
from being entered
into evidence.
It has nothing to
do with the matter
before the court, and
it's completely prejudicial.
I'm sorry, Miss Cahill,
but Mr. Louts is correct.
I will now allow you
to raise the issue
of Mr. Carter's past
arrests or convictions.
But, Your Honor...
I've made my ruling, counselor.
Now, let's get back in there.
Ranger Walker, is it
really your testimony
that looking across
a poorly lit warehouse
from a distance
of nearly 75 feet
you were still able to
positively identify my client?
That's correct.
Uh-huh, right.
And just exactly how
could you be so certain?
Because I remember him
from the three other times
I arrested him.
Your Honor, he... He
can't talk about that.
You opened the door, counselor,
but, unfortunately,
it's getting late,
so we'll need to leave
it open for the weekend.
I remind you all, you are
not to read any newspapers,
watch television news reports,
or discuss this case with anyone
while this trial is in session.
Court will resume at 8
a.m. Monday morning.
BAILIFF: All rise.
You blew up the tuxedos?
It was an accident.
Yes, thank you.
Giovanni says that he
can replace the tuxedos
first thing next
Saturday morning.
Next Saturday?
Like the day of the
wedding next Saturday?
Yeah. So it's no problem, right?
Mm. (laughs)
What did Walker say?
You haven't told him.
You haven't told Walker?
Haven't told me what?
Nothing.
I'm out of here.
We'll talk about it later.
Yeah. How was court?
It was great.
Come Monday morning,
Walker's testimony is gonna
put Carter away for good.
Right on. Good.
So you didn't wrinkle
the tuxedos, right?
Wrinkle?
You know, that's what we've
been meaning to talk to you about.
About what?
(both laugh)
You guys are gonna
get a kick out of this.
Hoo!
GAGE: No, it's
funny, it's funny.
I'm paying you top dollar
and Alex Cahill is burying
us in that courtroom.
Well, I think burying
is a little strong.
Well, actually, I don't
care what you think.
What I wanna know is
what are you gonna do about it?
Alex Cahill is the best
prosecuting attorney
the D.A.'s office has.
If there were some way I
could make her unavailable
to continue the trial,
they'd have to postpone
until they could replace her,
which would definitely improve
our chances for an acquittal.
Yeah, that would,
uh, give us time
to reach out to the jurors,
find someone we could,
uh, pressure or bribe.
Get it done.
( jazzy theme playing)
(computer beeping)
Seven down, one to go.
Councilman Cunningham. Oh.
I'm so sorry to have
kept you waiting.
Oh, don't be foolish, my dear.
You were, uh,
certainly worth the wait.
You certainly are the charmer.
Now, Councilman Cunningham.
Oh, Bolton.
Okay, Bolton, can I
be honest with you?
By all means.
I set this meeting up
under what I'm afraid
were false pretenses.
Really?
Yes. I mean, of course,
professionally I would love
to sit down in this restaurant
and ask you a bunch of questions
about what it's like
to be the poster boy
for political reform
in the Windy City.
(chuckling) But personally,
I'd much rather
go up to my suite
and get to know the
man behind the image.
Waiter, could I have
the check, please?
Mm.
Now, now, councilman,
all in good time.
Power is the ultimate
aphrodisiac, isn't it?
CUNNINGHAM: Oh, yeah.
WOMAN: That feeling
of being in total control.
You like that, don't you?
CUNNINGHAM: Mm-hm.
(grunts)
I like it too.
You know, sweetheart,
everything seems to
be coming together.
From Mark giving us his house,
which is gonna be so
beautiful for the wedding,
to that incredible deal
you've got for our honeymoon.
Do you believe
we're going to Paris?
(chuckles)
Oh, everything's
falling into place.
It's almost too perfect.
Look out.
(screams)
Call 911.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Don't do it. Drop the gun.
(police sirens
wailing distantly)
Who are these people?
ID'd the shooters.
Jack Larson, Jim
Casey, Teddy Gates,
all of them known
associates of Johnson Carter.
I should've known.
I just can't believe
that three of my top men
couldn't take them out.
Excuse me. You
can't come in here.
Nice try, Carter,
but don't try it again.
SYDNEY: Forks.
Man, I can't buy them forks.
Buy who forks?
Walker and Alex.
You know, I've
been to every place
they're registered
for wedding gifts
and the one thing
that is left is forks,
and they're not even real forks.
They're... They're salad forks.
Well, that's what
you get for waiting
till the last minute.
Don't start with me,
okay? Today's Sunday.
The wedding isn't
until next Saturday,
so that can't be classified
as last minute, see?
Whatever.
Hi, guys. Hey, Mr. Cahill,
good to see you.
You too, Ranger Trivette.
It's about time you
called me Gordon, isn't it?
Hey.
(laughs)
Dad, this is Sydney Cook.
She is my maid of honor.
My pleasure, ma'am.
Nice to meet you.
And this is Ranger Gage.
Hi. How are you.
Ah-ha, you're the one
who blew up the tuxedoes.
Oh, yes, that would be me.
(laughs)
I could still test the waters
with the district
attorney's office,
see if they might be willing
to offer us a plea bargain.
Whoa, what? Did you say us?
Did you say offer us?
What are you gonna do,
serve half of my time for me?
Huh? Mr. Carter, you
know what I meant.
Yeah, sure.
You know what I want you to do,
is I want you to shut up
and I want you to listen.
I don't care how
bad things look,
I'm not going down for this.
We are gonna get rid of Cahill
and we're going to
get this trial postponed.
Do you understand?
We already tried that.
Well, we are gonna
try just a little harder.
You call Harvey, you
tell him to take care of it.
You tell him to get
the best of the best.
You understand me?
And you tell him
money is no object.
Thank you.
( action theme playing)
Hey, we got another assignment.
Where? Dallas.
(sighing)
Excellent.
( mellow theme playing)
GORDON: Isn't this nice?
Mm-hm.
Oh, leaving you and your mother
was the biggest
mistake of my entire life.
That's the problem
with the booze.
I couldn't think of
anything but the need
for another drink.
And when I quit
drinking, I felt it all.
All the pain, all the guilt.
Then it was too late,
but you know all that.
Dad, Mom would've
been really proud of you.
The fact is, you
did quit drinking,
and she would've been proud.
Boy, do I miss her.
I know you do.
I wish she could
be here for all of this.
She is.
Believe me.
( dramatic theme playing)
BELLBOY: Welcome to
the Dallas Marquis Hotel.
( country rock theme playing)
Did you get them?
Yep.
Oh, come on, Gage, lighten up.
There's nothing
wrong with forks.
Alex and Walker registered
for forks, they want forks.
What'd you get them?
A crystal decanter
and some glasses.
You want to, uh... You
want to trade, maybe?
(scoffs)
Like I'm gonna give them forks.
Ha. Thanks. I feel
a lot better now.
Isolate the data on Alex Cahill,
then run a variant
analysis on the profiles
of the remaining candidates
to eliminate any possible
connection between the victims.
(computer beeping)
WOMAN: You know, I-I don't know
how people did this
before computers.
( ominous theme playing)
(screaming)
The victim's name
was Jasmine Keefe.
She was a receptionist at
one of the local art galleries.
The cause of death was a single
puncture wound to the chest.
I've got the uniforms
searching the structure
and the adjoining alleyways.
We haven't concluded
our investigation,
but we think it may have
been a carjacking gone bad
because they
didn't take anything.
WALKER: I'm not sure
that's what happened here.
OATES: What do you mean?
Take a look at the locks.
The passenger door and
the right rear door are locked,
but yet the left rear
door is unlocked.
That means that someone
had to unlock it from the inside.
The killer must've
been hiding in the back
when the girl got in.
So, what are you guys saying?
What, this was a
premeditated murder?
That's what it looks like.
( dramatic theme playing)
Single puncture wound.
Looks like nothing was taken.
Sounds familiar.
Yeah, it sure does.
(beeping)
(typing)
The victim's name
was Wilfred Brookes.
He was a dentist
at Medical City.
Same M.O. as the others?
Yeah.
Can you tell us anything
about the murder weapon?
Not much. Let... Let... Let me
go in my notes, okay? Excuse me.
From the degree of penetration,
it would have to be
something very smooth
and very, very sharp.
It probably doesn't
have a serrated edge,
but other than that...
I've never seen you
confused before, Mary.
Well, all I can say is
whoever is doing this
knows what they're doing.
I mean, each victim suffered
a single puncture wound
in a vital area.
It's almost as if they're
being killed by a doctor.
Or a professional killer.
A professional killer?
Who would hire a
professional killer
to kill a receptionist,
an accountant and a dentist?
That's what we have to find out.
(computer beeping)
This one seems appropriate.
( upbeat theme playing)
Oh, hey, Trivette,
Trivette? What?
Listen. What are you...?
What are you getting Walker
and Alex for the wedding?
I'm not gonna tell you.
Okay, fine. I was just thinking
maybe if you wanted
to you and I could go...
Fork boy, forget about it.
WALKER: Forget about what?
Oh, that's a nice
house, isn't it?
GAGE: It's a beautiful house.
WALKER: Yeah, it sure is.
It's great that Mark's
letting you and Alex
use the house for the
wedding and the reception.
Yep. Yeah.
So is he here, Mark?
No, no, he's on tour
with the Mavericks.
He'll be back in
time for the wedding.
I sure hope it
clears up, though.
Ready when you are, gentlemen.
Well.
You ladies look perfect
just the way you are.
Now we'll put C.D.
between Trivette and Gage
with Mark on the end, and
you guys look perfect, also.
When everyone's in
place I'll cue the music,
then you take a count of four
and you walk very
slowly down the aisle.
Step, step, step.
Good, that's great.
You've got it down. Now move it.
(all laughing)
Now I'll say some stuff to you,
and you'll say
some stuff to her,
give Alex a kiss, and
then you take a seat.
(laughs)
Then there's a little
yadda, yadda, yadda
about marriage in general,
and then some blah, blah, blah
about the two of you,
then do you, do
you, and you both do,
and you might as well kiss
the bride. Any questions?
(laughs)
Okay.
(door closing)
ALEX: How can I be so excited
and exhausted at the same time?
(laughs)
Dad, I think I'm gonna
take a quick shower
and I am off to bed.
I shouldn't have all that coffee
at the rehearsal dinner. Zing.
(both laughing)
I'm gonna read
my book for a while.
Okay. Here, let
me take that for you.
Thanks, darling. Good night.
Nighty night.
(radio beeping)
WOMAN 1 (on radio): I've got it.
MAN 1 (on radio): Okay, great.
WOMAN 2: I've gotta get up
really early, so don't forget...
MAN 2: I thought it would
be a good investment.
How'd I know they'd tank?
WOMAN 3: Well, come on.
You know, we need...
ALEX: Could I get you
anything before I go to bed?
GORDON: I'm fine.
Thank you, darling.
Okay. See you in the morning.
Night. Good night.
( ominous theme playing)
GORDON: Honey, that you?
You still awake?
Hey!
(screams)
(croaking)
( suspenseful theme playing)
Oh, Daddy.
(gasps)
(siren wailing)
We got a 67-year-old male
with a penetrating
wound to the chest.
Massive blood loss.
Vitals are pulse of
110, BP of 95 over 60.
Patient is extremely
diaphoretic.
I've got bilateral
IVs wide open,
on oxygen full blast.
We're coming to you
code three with a
ETA of three minutes.
(door opens)
PARAMEDIC: Doc, I
got a 67-year-old male
who was stabbed in the chest
with some type of sharp object.
He's lost approximately
two liters of blood.
Just prior to our arrival...
You're gonna have
to wait here. Wait here.
Just prior to our arrival
I noticed that there was
diminished breath sounds
on the left-hand side.
What happened?
There was a man.
He was... He was in my
bedroom and my Dad...
Oh, Walker, it was so horrible.
There was a piece of ice
sticking out of my Dad's chest.
(crying)
DOCTOR: Miss Cahill?
How is he?
Well, he did lose a
substantial amount of blood.
One lung was collapsed
and there was some
damage to the aorta.
He's gonna be all right though?
Yes, yes, he's a very lucky man.
An inch closer to the heart...
But he is going to be
laid up for quite some time.
I'm sorry.
Why?
Why is this happening?
(crying)
All right, Alex
said that her father
was stabbed with an ice knife.
An ice knife?
Yeah, the wound is consistent
with the other three victims.
Ice. That would explain
why there's been no
weapons recovered.
Yeah. Trivette, contact
ViCAP and Interpol
and see if there's been
any similar murders
in the past two years.
You got it.
Okay, I want you
two to check the files
of three victims
and see if there's
any connection
between them and Alex.
All right. Right.
I can't believe it.
I can't believe I didn't
kill her first, then him.
Did she get a look at you?
Yeah.
I don't know how good a look,
but she definitely got a look.
When this is over,
I'm gonna have to
go to Switzerland
and buy myself a new face.
Mm, that's too bad,
because I was
kind of getting fond
of the one you've got.
(siren wailing)
(Alex sniffling)
Hey, hey.
Big girls don't cry.
Dad, I was so scared.
(laughs)
Me too, darling.
Me too.
SYDNEY: Ran a complete
background check on Alex
and the other three victims.
Came up with nothing.
GAGE: There is
absolutely no connection
between any of them.
Which is kind of strange
in and of itself. I mean,
you would think even
just by coincidence
there would have
to be something.
They're being killed at
random. I wonder why.
I ran all that data
through the computer.
You're not gonna believe
it. Ten separate incidents.
Cairo, London, Toronto,
New York, and just
last week Chicago.
Eight victims in each city,
single puncture wound
to the chest, no weapons.
I know what's happening.
Someone has a contract
to kill a specific individual,
and he kills seven
others to cover his tracks.
Hm, talk about cold-blooded.
No pun intended.
Who do you think hired this guy?
I know who hired him.
Johnson Carter.
What do you want, Walker, huh?
I got nothing to say to you.
I know you hired a
professional assassin
to kill Alex Cahill.
And I just came in
here to let you know
that if anything happens to her,
I'm gonna personally
take you out.
You know my reputation, Carter.
You know I can, and I will.
Now call off your killer,
or you're a dead man.
(panting)
(computer beeping)
Can you make it a little
darker around the eyes?
SKETCH ARTIST: How's that?
ALEX: That's him.
Will you e-mail this sketch
to the CIA, KGB, and Mossad?
See if they can put
a name to that face.
You got it.
Sorry, but once a
contract's been accepted,
it can't be canceled.
Alex Cahill will die,
and your client will pay
the balance of his bill.
All right,
then my client is prepared
to double your fee,
as long as you
take Walker out first.
You accept?
I accept.
Good.
(phone beeping)
Got it.
Name's Michael
Westmoreland, ex-CIA.
How ex?
Very. Left the agency
three years ago
after an incident
involving his superiors.
What'd he do then?
Dropped off the
face of the planet.
According to the guy
that I spoke to at Langley,
there were rumors that
he'd been a gun for hire.
Never anything more than rumors,
but he told me this.
This Westmoreland's
got a girlfriend
named Deirdre
Harris, also ex-CIA,
also deadly, also missing.
Can you get photos of them?
I tried that. These
guys are so good,
before they left the agency
they destroyed every piece
of information in their files.
He should be considered
armed and very dangerous.
If you have any information
regarding his whereabouts,
you're asked to call
the Texas Rangers
at 214-555-0198
Michael, maybe we should
just pass on this and go home.
We've got plenty of
money to live comfortably
for the rest of our lives.
It's not the money,
Deirdre. You know that.
It's the rush.
It's knowing that I can
do something better
than anyone else on the planet,
and this Walker just
makes it more challenging,
and that just makes it
that much more interesting.
Now look, I'm gonna
go take a shower,
and then we're gonna
go out for a nice dinner,
and then tomorrow I'm
gonna personally kill them both.
(chuckles)
( dramatic theme playing)
Hi. Hi.
How are you feeling?
I'm fine.
How are things going
with the wedding?
They're coming along.
I'm thinking of postponing
the wedding though.
What?
Just until you're
feeling better.
You'll do no such thing.
Took long enough for
that fella to propose to you.
Dad, I wanted you to
walk me down the aisle.
If it's God's will.
I just want you to
concentrate on that happy day,
and know that everything's
gonna work out all right, okay?
(sighs)
( ominous theme playing)
(car beeping)
(tires screeching)
(car starts)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(grunts)
You must be Deirdre.
I'm surprised Michael
let you come alone.
I don't need him.
( ominous theme playing)
(siren wailing)
(cocks gun)
According to early reports,
the assailant was
hiding in the house
when the Ranger returned,
and while information
is still coming in,
reports indicate that
the assailant, a female,
was pronounced
dead on the scene.
As many of you are aware,
Ranger Walker is engaged
to marry Tarrant County
assistant district
attorney Alex Cahill,
whose father, Gordon Cahill,
was recently
injured in an attack
at Miss Cahill's home.
TRIVETTE: I never thought
you'd be on the hit list.
I did.
Carter knows he
has to take me out
before Alex if he wants
to keep on breathing.
Since his girlfriend's dead,
you think this Westmoreland's
gonna cut his losses
and skip the country?
No. He'll come after
me, for two reasons.
One, I took his girlfriend out,
and second, his ego
won't allow himself to quit.
( suspenseful theme playing)
(tires screeching)
(siren wailing)
(car horns honking)
He changed his M.O.
They sure weren't ice bullets.
Yeah.
For a professional killer,
he's a pretty lousy shot.
Yeah, he was.
Trivette, have the M.E.
run a DNA test on the body.
You got it.
You got a reason?
You just said it.
I did?
Have you reached a verdict?
Yes, Your Honor, we have.
JUDGE: Mr. Foreman,
what say you?
In the matter of the State
of Texas v. Johnson Carter,
we find the accused
guilty on all counts.
(gavel bangs)
All right. Thanks, Mary.
M.E.'s expediting the DNA test,
but we won't have any
results for a few days.
We tracked down the
license plate on the car.
GAGE: The car was
stolen from the garage
at the Marquis Hotel.
TRIVETTE: Hey,
guys, check this out.
Oh, man. These
people have no idea
how close they came.
Take a look at this.
Oh.
That about seals it.
( wedding march theme playing)
You wear this jacket
and you be beating off
the ladies with a
stick, or my name,
she's not Giovanni Rossini.
Oh, scusi, signor.
Hey, guys. It's ready.
We sure appreciate
this, Giovanni.
Yeah, it took some doing
to get them here so soon,
but if Giovanni can't
get it done, no one can.
Hey, where's C.D.?
Stuck in Tokyo. They
got hit by a typhoon.
No flights in or out for
at least the next 24 hours.
GIOVANNI: Too bad.
(man clearing throat)
Oh, I'm gonna blow a sale.
(in Italian accent): Giovanni must
get back to work, okay? Good day.
Ah, ah, ah, ah.
Mark and I will take
our own tuxedos.
"Mark and I will take our own."
That's funny.
( wedding march theme playing)
CHRIS: I'm sorry
about your dad, Alex.
Thank you. Actually,
Walker and I are gonna take
a video over to the
hospital after the wedding.
Oh, that's a great idea.
SYDNEY: All right,
we have a little problem.
Just a little one.
How little?
The vocalist,
she has laryngitis.
Okay.
Donna, your daughter
sings, doesn't she?
Like an angel.

Honey?

Hi.
He was determined to be here.
GORDON: You're darn right I was.
I said I was gonna walk
my daughter down the aisle,
and that's exactly
what I intend to do.
Ha.
("Wedding March" playing)
(guests murmuring indistinctly)
Who presents this woman
to be married to this man?
I do.
( tender theme playing)
MINISTER: Dearly beloved,
we are gathered here today
to unite this woman, Alexandra,
and this man, Cordell,
in the bonds of holy matrimony.
( ominous theme playing)
MINISTER: In these
temporary times,
where a longtime investment
means holding on to something
for more than a week,
what does it take to
commit to someone
for the rest of one's life?
Love, strength,
honesty and faith,
and if indeed these
are the key components
to a successful union,
then I can imagine
no more perfect pair
than the ones standing
before me today.
What God has put together,
let no man tear asunder.
(bones crack)
( mellow theme playing)
Cordell, do you take this woman
to be your lawful wedded wife,
and do you promise to love
and cherish her in sickness
and in health, for
richer for poorer,
for better for worse,
forsaking all others
for so long as
you both shall live?
I do.
MINISTER: And you, Alexandra,
do you take this man, Cordell,
to be your lawful
wedded husband,
and do you promise
to love and cherish him
in sickness and in health,
for richer for poorer,
for better for worse,
forsaking all others for so long
as you both shall live?
I do.
Do you have the rings?
The ring.
The perfect circle,
without a beginning nor an end.
The symbol of a love
that will last forever.
With this ring, I thee wed.
With this ring, I thee wed.

Mr. and Mrs. Cordell Walker.
(all applaud)
Have a wonderful life.
We will.

Honey, we'd better
go get changed.
Our flight leaves in two hours.
Okay.
( upbeat theme playing)
(guests cheering)
You know the first thing I
wanna do when we get to Paris?
Maybe the second thing I
wanna do when we get to Paris?
(laughs)
I wanna walk up
the Champs Élysées.
To the Arc de Triomphe.
(girl laughing)
WALKER: Well, hi, there.
(speaking French)
Pardon.
Oh. She is so cute.
She is.
Where's Stefan?
Sick. They called me
in at the last minute.
(speaking French)
(speaking French)
Well, then, looks
like we traded up.
Okay, you can take
the coach compartment
with Doreen and Jackie.
(speaking French)
(speaking French)
I can't believe it.
Believe what?
Well, I know it may sound silly,
but given our track record,
I was waiting for something
to go wrong, and it didn't.
It was an absolutely
perfect day.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Caught the bouquet, hm?
I told you I don't
wanna talk about it.
Oh, come on, Syd.
You know you wanted it.
I saw you in there throwing
elbows around to get to it.
What was that all about?
She's been touchy all day long.
I may not know
anything about women,
but today, compared to you,
I am Albert Einstein and
Thomas Edison put together.
Syd, you okay?
No, I'm not okay.
I'm 32 years old,
and you know what?
Forget about a relationship,
I haven't even had a
date in like three months.
And you know what?
I've caught that stupid
wedding bouquet four
times in the last two years.
So much for that.
Syd, Syd, listen
to me for a minute.
No.
Syd, you're a beautiful girl.
You are, and you're smart,
and you're funny,
and you can kick butt
with the best of them,
and the problem there
is that most guys are
gonna be stupid enough
to let that intimidate
them, but I guarantee you
that any guy out there
who is good enough for you,
he won't be intimidated.
Thanks.
(phone rings)
Yeah, Trivette.
Juan Martinez?
Are you sure?
Yeah, thanks.
What's up?
Trouble.
Actually what I would
really love is twins.
Twins?
(laughs)
Yes. Didn't I tell you
they run in my family?
Really?
Really. A boy and a
girl would be just perfect.
Twins?
(laughs)
Relax, honey.
Ranger Walker, we
have Ranger Trivette
patched through
on the cockpit radio.
He says it's urgent.
Yeah, Trivette?
Walker, listen.
The DNA test results
from the crash just came back.
The man in the car
was a local drug dealer
named Juan Martinez.
So that means that
Westmoreland is still alive.
Yeah, it does.
Okay, thanks, Trivette.
Thanks.
Hello, Walker.
How about if you
lead the three of us
up front to first class?
Real quiet.
Okay, attention, everyone.
Now I don't want
anybody to panic.
Everything's gonna be
okay, but unfortunately,
you're all gonna have
to complete your flight
back in coach.
Now let's go. Get up. Come on.
Move it.
And when we land,
make sure you request
a refund from the airline.
Come on, let's go. Let's go.
And you. You close the
curtain on your way out.
Hurry up. Let's go.
Chop, chop. Move it
Now why don't we just
have a seat right over here,
and, Walker, why
don't you have a seat
right here in the center?
Well, Walker, Miss Cahill.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Or should I say Mrs. Walker?
I guess congratulations
are in order.
(all murmuring indistinctly)
ALEX: I thought he was dead.
He killed a guy named Martinez,
put his body in the car
and jumped out
before it exploded.
Very good, Walker.
I knew he wouldn't let up
until one of us was dead,
so I had to figure out a
way to let your guard down,
and then it was just a
simple matter to discover
what flight you were on,
and the rest was
a piece of cake.
What do you want, Westmoreland?
What do I want?
That is such an
interesting question,
I mean, with the
implication and all,
as if I could even
know what I want,
and as if some how you
could even give it to me.
Before I tell you what I want,
you buckle up that seat belt.
Why?
Just do it.
Okay, you wanna
know what I want?
I'll tell you what I want.
I want to complete my mission.
I want to revenge
the death of Deirdre.
(chuckles)
And then I wanna
look you in the face
and I wanna see the fear
and defeat in your eyes
when you know this
plane is gonna crash,
and you and your
lovely wife are gonna die.
And there's nothing
you can do to stop it.
(all screaming)
He's dead.
God, Walker, what
are we gonna do?
( suspenseful theme playing)
Get the flight attendant.
(people screaming)
We really need you up front.
Is there a pilot onboard?
No. They always let us know
if there's another
pilot flying with us.
Go calm the passengers.
Tell them that everything
is under control.
Mayday. Mayday.
This is Flight 1558.
Do you read me?
(static crackling)
Mayday. Mayday. Mayday.
This is Flight 1558.
Do you read me?
(all screaming)
WALKER (on radio):
Mayday. Mayday. Mayday.
This is Flight 1558.
Do you read me?
Roger, Flight 1558.
This is the national
flight control center
in Washington, D.C.
What appears to be the problem?
WALKER: This is Texas
Ranger Cordell Walker.
The pilot and co-pilot are dead.
We've lost cabin pressure,
and I don't have the
slightest idea what to do.
Is there another pilot onboard?
No. Do you have
any flight experience, Ranger?
Not commercial.
That's okay, Ranger.
We're gonna get you through.
This is Captain Joe
Henderson, Ranger Walker.
Can you tell me what
altitude you're at?
Thirty thousand feet.
Okay, we're gonna need
you to get down to 15,000 feet
as fast as you can,
otherwise there's not gonna be
enough oxygen to breathe.
Okay, tell me how to do it.
First look for the
autopilot switch.
It should be at your 2 o'clock.
WALKER: I see it.
Take the yoke and
flip the switch off.
Now it may be a little bumpy,
so try to keep it as
steady as you can.
All right.
Here goes.
(all screaming)
(beeping) LARRY: He's dropping.
Ranger, you're going
to have to pull up now.
(alarm blaring)
(all screaming)
I can't pull the yoke back.
Well, the hydraulics
must be damaged.
You have to pull
it back, Ranger.
Alex, grab the
yoke and pull back.
(all screaming)
He's steady.
(sighs)
JOE: Nice work, Ranger.
You're at 15,000 feet.
Keep it steady as you can.
(indistinct murmuring)
Ranger, you are
currently 300 miles
east of Savannah, Georgia.
What do we do now?
We're going to need you
to turn the plane
back toward land.
Before you make the turn,
make sure that
you are stabilized.
Look right in front of you.
There is a flight directory
gauge at 2 o'clock.
It took a bullet.
I can't read it.
TRIVETTE: What flight was
he scheduled to work on?
Fifteen fifty-eight.
The body of the flight attendant
was found in his
house in Irving.
He was supposed to work
Trans-international Flight 1558.
That's Walker and Alex's flight.
JOE: You wanna go
nice and slow now.
Keep your eye on the altimeter.
Bring your right
wing up 15 degrees.
All right, here it goes.
(all murmuring)
Okay, 15 degrees.
JOE: That's good work, Ranger.
You're getting the hang of this.
Yeah, right.
According to reports
from DFW Airport,
Trans-international Flight 1558
has experienced
difficulties on its flight
from Dallas to Paris.
That flight has been
diverted to McLaughlin Airport
near Savannah, Georgia,
where emergency
crews are standing by.
What now?
You are currently
85 miles off the coast.
We are going to need
you to begin your descent.
JOE: First you're going to
need to dump your excess fuel.
There should be a switch
right above your head.
WALKER: Yeah, I see it.
Fuel's dumped.
You want to come in
on the setting of 276.
Two, seven, six.
Nice work, Ranger.
Okay, now you need to
lower your landing gear.
The switch is gone.
Who do you have there with you?
This is Alex Cahill Walker.
I'm his wife.
We were on our way
to our honeymoon.
Congratulations.
Okay, Mrs. Walker, this
is what I want you to do.
On the floor between
the seats there should be
a small hatch. You'll
need to open it up.
I see it.
You're going to
have to pull it up
and turn it clockwise.
(air hissing)
That's as far as it'll go.
They're down.
You can't be serious.
Now we're gonna fly
into a thunderstorm?
Ranger Walker, is there
anything I can do to help?
We'll be landing soon.
Have the passengers prepare
for an emergency landing.
You got it.
Okay, I need everybody
to prepare for an
emergency landing.
I need everybody very
quickly to make sure
that your seats are
in an upright position.
I need you to make sure
that you're buckled in,
and then what I
need you to do for me
is place your hands
and cross them
and grab the seat
in front of you like so,
and then everybody
just stay calm
and as cool as possible.
(siren wailing)
We're live and on the scene
here at McLaughlin Airport
where a Trans-international
jet is about to make
an emergency landing.
While the details
are still coming in,
we do know the pilot
and the co-pilot are dead.
The plane is being piloted
by Texas Ranger Cordell Walker.
All right, now you
need to lower your flaps.
The lever is on the
right of your throttle.
He's coming in a little hot.
Ranger, are the
flaps fully extended?
They won't go any further.
You're coming in
too low and too fast.
Oh, my God,
Walker, the billboard.
He's still too fast.
You've got to get
your flaps down.
(screams)
You've got to get
those flaps down.
Now they're down.
All right, Ranger,
with that hit you took,
your landing gear might
not hold when you land,
so as soon as you touch down,
you're going to
need to pull back
the thrust reversers,
the red covered
switches above your head.
You can open those covers now.
Then you're going to need
to apply the brakes as gently
as you possibly can.
Too much stress and the
landing gear could collapse.
(all screaming)
NEWS ANCHOR: We
just received a report
that the landing gear
is badly damaged.
( suspenseful theme playing)
( heroic theme playing)
They've landed safely.
(all cheering)
Yes!
(sirens wailing)
Oh, yes!
Do you want a beer?
Yeah.
You guys, I wasn't
worried for a minute.
(panting)
Maybe just a little.
(sirens wailing)
Well, Mrs. Walker,
should we try it again?
You better believe it, cowboy.
I'm not gonna let you
off the hook that easy.
Paris or bust.
( upbeat theme playing)
ALEX: I can't believe
we finally made it to Paris.
You said on the plane
that the second thing
you wanna do
when we get to Paris
was go for a walk.
What was the first
thing you wanted to do?
ALEX: Oh, Walker, we
may never take that walk.

GAGE: Well, the
girls can stop griping.
We are finally
getting our tuxedos.
You know, this place
looks a little expensive, huh?
Rossini's is probably
the hottest men's shop
in the entire metroplex.
Guys, it's not who you
know, it's who knows you.
Hey, how did you guys get
to know Rossini anyway?
Well, actually, Giovanni Rossini
was once known as Johnny Rose.
Yeah, Walker and I busted
him for truck hijacking
about six years ago.
You know what? I
remember that bust.
So he's Johnny Rose, huh?
Yup. Picked up his trade at
the University of Huntsville,
courtesy of the State of Texas.
(in Italian accent): Hey, my
friends, is so good to see you again.
Johnny, what's with the accent?
(in normal voice):
Oh, sorry, Trivette.
Force of habit.
You know, you put
on an Italian accent,
people go nuts.
They don't come here
just to buy clothes.
They come for una esperienza.
That's great. Where's our tuxes?
Fresh off the boat from Napoli.
Check this out.
You guys are gonna
look like a million bucks.
Oh, wow, molto bene.
C.D.'s still coming, right?
Oh, yeah. His ship arrives
in Tokyo Thursday evening.
He's got a flight scheduled
for Friday morning.
These are great.
What do I owe you?
Please, Walker.
This is my gift to you
and your lovely bride.
If it wasn't for you
turning my life around...
I put you in prison, Johnny.
You turned your life around.
Yeah, I know, but
do you remember
what you said to me at my trial?
You said, "Johnny, you're
a lot smarter than this.
"When you get
out, try honest work
and you'll make more money."
So I took your advice.
Johnny Rose died in
Huntsville. I was reborn.
I'm Giovanni
Rossini, entrepreneur.
(laughs)
Let this be a wedding present
from Giovanni, okay?
Thanks, Giovanni.
Why don't you let
me grab yours, Mark?
I'd appreciate it.
Now be careful with the tuxedos.
Don't wrinkle them.
TRIVETTE: Will you relax?
Nothing's gonna happen
to the tuxes, Walker.
I know, I know.
I guess I just got the...
pre-wedding
jitters or something.
Look, I'm gonna drop
Mark off and I'll, uh...
I'll see you guys at Ranger
Headquarters, okay?
Oh, okay. Okay.
(laughs)
You know, Walker, I
thought about going
into law enforcement
at one time.
Really?
Yeah, but the computer
age got me instead.
Well, that's not a
bad alternative, Mark.
(Gage and Trivette laughing)
I have never seen
Walker so nervous.
Oh, my goodness.
Grab my hat, will you?
Yeah. Hey, you know, the
only person more nervous
than Walker is Sydney.
Why is Sydney nervous?
Sydney has been
worried since day one
that we weren't
gonna get these tuxes
in time for the wedding.
Women, they worry. Yep.
DISPATCHER (on radio): All
units, report of a 2-11 in progress
at the First Bank
of South Dallas

Abrams and Montfort.

That's like three
blocks from here.

Whoops. Ah!
Oh... Oh.
Uh, sorry about your
car. Sorry about the car?
Walker's gonna kill us!
The tuxes! Yes!
The tuxes!
Oh, man!
Hey, we should
just go to Australia.
That's not far enough.
It's not far enough,
is it? Shoot!

ALEX: Your Honor,
Mr. Carter's prior arrests
and convictions go
to establish a pattern
of unlawful behavior
and a complete
disregard for the law.
And it is precisely the
rule of law, Your Honor,
that should prevent
this information
from being entered
into evidence.
It has nothing to
do with the matter
before the court, and
it's completely prejudicial.
I'm sorry, Miss Cahill,
but Mr. Louts is correct.
I will now allow you
to raise the issue
of Mr. Carter's past
arrests or convictions.
But, Your Honor...
I've made my ruling, counselor.
Now, let's get back in there.
Ranger Walker, is it
really your testimony
that looking across
a poorly lit warehouse
from a distance
of nearly 75 feet
you were still able to
positively identify my client?
That's correct.
Uh-huh, right.
And just exactly how
could you be so certain?
Because I remember him
from the three other times
I arrested him.
Your Honor, he... He
can't talk about that.
You opened the door, counselor,
but, unfortunately,
it's getting late,
so we'll need to leave
it open for the weekend.
I remind you all, you are
not to read any newspapers,
watch television news reports,
or discuss this case with anyone
while this trial is in session.
Court will resume at 8
a.m. Monday morning.
BAILIFF: All rise.
You blew up the tuxedos?
It was an accident.
Yes, thank you.
Giovanni says that he
can replace the tuxedos
first thing next
Saturday morning.
Next Saturday?
Like the day of the
wedding next Saturday?
Yeah. So it's no problem, right?
Mm. (laughs)
What did Walker say?
You haven't told him.
You haven't told Walker?
Haven't told me what?
Nothing.
I'm out of here.
We'll talk about it later.
Yeah. How was court?
It was great.
Come Monday morning,
Walker's testimony is gonna
put Carter away for good.
Right on. Good.
So you didn't wrinkle
the tuxedos, right?
Wrinkle?
You know, that's what we've
been meaning to talk to you about.
About what?
(both laugh)
You guys are gonna
get a kick out of this.
Hoo!
GAGE: No, it's
funny, it's funny.
I'm paying you top dollar
and Alex Cahill is burying
us in that courtroom.
Well, I think burying
is a little strong.
Well, actually, I don't
care what you think.
What I wanna know is
what are you gonna do about it?
Alex Cahill is the best
prosecuting attorney
the D.A.'s office has.
If there were some way I
could make her unavailable
to continue the trial,
they'd have to postpone
until they could replace her,
which would definitely improve
our chances for an acquittal.
Yeah, that would,
uh, give us time
to reach out to the jurors,
find someone we could,
uh, pressure or bribe.
Get it done.
( jazzy theme playing)
(computer beeping)
Seven down, one to go.
Councilman Cunningham. Oh.
I'm so sorry to have
kept you waiting.
Oh, don't be foolish, my dear.
You were, uh,
certainly worth the wait.
You certainly are the charmer.
Now, Councilman Cunningham.
Oh, Bolton.
Okay, Bolton, can I
be honest with you?
By all means.
I set this meeting up
under what I'm afraid
were false pretenses.
Really?
Yes. I mean, of course,
professionally I would love
to sit down in this restaurant
and ask you a bunch of questions
about what it's like
to be the poster boy
for political reform
in the Windy City.
(chuckling) But personally,
I'd much rather
go up to my suite
and get to know the
man behind the image.
Waiter, could I have
the check, please?
Mm.
Now, now, councilman,
all in good time.
Power is the ultimate
aphrodisiac, isn't it?
CUNNINGHAM: Oh, yeah.
WOMAN: That feeling
of being in total control.
You like that, don't you?
CUNNINGHAM: Mm-hm.
(grunts)
I like it too.
You know, sweetheart,
everything seems to
be coming together.
From Mark giving us his house,
which is gonna be so
beautiful for the wedding,
to that incredible deal
you've got for our honeymoon.
Do you believe
we're going to Paris?
(chuckles)
Oh, everything's
falling into place.
It's almost too perfect.
Look out.
(screams)
Call 911.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Don't do it. Drop the gun.
(police sirens
wailing distantly)
Who are these people?
ID'd the shooters.
Jack Larson, Jim
Casey, Teddy Gates,
all of them known
associates of Johnson Carter.
I should've known.
I just can't believe
that three of my top men
couldn't take them out.
Excuse me. You
can't come in here.
Nice try, Carter,
but don't try it again.
SYDNEY: Forks.
Man, I can't buy them forks.
Buy who forks?
Walker and Alex.
You know, I've
been to every place
they're registered
for wedding gifts
and the one thing
that is left is forks,
and they're not even real forks.
They're... They're salad forks.
Well, that's what
you get for waiting
till the last minute.
Don't start with me,
okay? Today's Sunday.
The wedding isn't
until next Saturday,
so that can't be classified
as last minute, see?
Whatever.
Hi, guys. Hey, Mr. Cahill,
good to see you.
You too, Ranger Trivette.
It's about time you
called me Gordon, isn't it?
Hey.
(laughs)
Dad, this is Sydney Cook.
She is my maid of honor.
My pleasure, ma'am.
Nice to meet you.
And this is Ranger Gage.
Hi. How are you.
Ah-ha, you're the one
who blew up the tuxedoes.
Oh, yes, that would be me.
(laughs)
I could still test the waters
with the district
attorney's office,
see if they might be willing
to offer us a plea bargain.
Whoa, what? Did you say us?
Did you say offer us?
What are you gonna do,
serve half of my time for me?
Huh? Mr. Carter, you
know what I meant.
Yeah, sure.
You know what I want you to do,
is I want you to shut up
and I want you to listen.
I don't care how
bad things look,
I'm not going down for this.
We are gonna get rid of Cahill
and we're going to
get this trial postponed.
Do you understand?
We already tried that.
Well, we are gonna
try just a little harder.
You call Harvey, you
tell him to take care of it.
You tell him to get
the best of the best.
You understand me?
And you tell him
money is no object.
Thank you.
( action theme playing)
Hey, we got another assignment.
Where? Dallas.
(sighing)
Excellent.
( mellow theme playing)
GORDON: Isn't this nice?
Mm-hm.
Oh, leaving you and your mother
was the biggest
mistake of my entire life.
That's the problem
with the booze.
I couldn't think of
anything but the need
for another drink.
And when I quit
drinking, I felt it all.
All the pain, all the guilt.
Then it was too late,
but you know all that.
Dad, Mom would've
been really proud of you.
The fact is, you
did quit drinking,
and she would've been proud.
Boy, do I miss her.
I know you do.
I wish she could
be here for all of this.
She is.
Believe me.
( dramatic theme playing)
BELLBOY: Welcome to
the Dallas Marquis Hotel.
( country rock theme playing)
Did you get them?
Yep.
Oh, come on, Gage, lighten up.
There's nothing
wrong with forks.
Alex and Walker registered
for forks, they want forks.
What'd you get them?
A crystal decanter
and some glasses.
You want to, uh... You
want to trade, maybe?
(scoffs)
Like I'm gonna give them forks.
Ha. Thanks. I feel
a lot better now.
Isolate the data on Alex Cahill,
then run a variant
analysis on the profiles
of the remaining candidates
to eliminate any possible
connection between the victims.
(computer beeping)
WOMAN: You know, I-I don't know
how people did this
before computers.
( ominous theme playing)
(screaming)
The victim's name
was Jasmine Keefe.
She was a receptionist at
one of the local art galleries.
The cause of death was a single
puncture wound to the chest.
I've got the uniforms
searching the structure
and the adjoining alleyways.
We haven't concluded
our investigation,
but we think it may have
been a carjacking gone bad
because they
didn't take anything.
WALKER: I'm not sure
that's what happened here.
OATES: What do you mean?
Take a look at the locks.
The passenger door and
the right rear door are locked,
but yet the left rear
door is unlocked.
That means that someone
had to unlock it from the inside.
The killer must've
been hiding in the back
when the girl got in.
So, what are you guys saying?
What, this was a
premeditated murder?
That's what it looks like.
( dramatic theme playing)
Single puncture wound.
Looks like nothing was taken.
Sounds familiar.
Yeah, it sure does.
(beeping)
(typing)
The victim's name
was Wilfred Brookes.
He was a dentist
at Medical City.
Same M.O. as the others?
Yeah.
Can you tell us anything
about the murder weapon?
Not much. Let... Let... Let me
go in my notes, okay? Excuse me.
From the degree of penetration,
it would have to be
something very smooth
and very, very sharp.
It probably doesn't
have a serrated edge,
but other than that...
I've never seen you
confused before, Mary.
Well, all I can say is
whoever is doing this
knows what they're doing.
I mean, each victim suffered
a single puncture wound
in a vital area.
It's almost as if they're
being killed by a doctor.
Or a professional killer.
A professional killer?
Who would hire a
professional killer
to kill a receptionist,
an accountant and a dentist?
That's what we have to find out.
(computer beeping)
This one seems appropriate.
( upbeat theme playing)
Oh, hey, Trivette,
Trivette? What?
Listen. What are you...?
What are you getting Walker
and Alex for the wedding?
I'm not gonna tell you.
Okay, fine. I was just thinking
maybe if you wanted
to you and I could go...
Fork boy, forget about it.
WALKER: Forget about what?
Oh, that's a nice
house, isn't it?
GAGE: It's a beautiful house.
WALKER: Yeah, it sure is.
It's great that Mark's
letting you and Alex
use the house for the
wedding and the reception.
Yep. Yeah.
So is he here, Mark?
No, no, he's on tour
with the Mavericks.
He'll be back in
time for the wedding.
I sure hope it
clears up, though.
Ready when you are, gentlemen.
Well.
You ladies look perfect
just the way you are.
Now we'll put C.D.
between Trivette and Gage
with Mark on the end, and
you guys look perfect, also.
When everyone's in
place I'll cue the music,
then you take a count of four
and you walk very
slowly down the aisle.
Step, step, step.
Good, that's great.
You've got it down. Now move it.
(all laughing)
Now I'll say some stuff to you,
and you'll say
some stuff to her,
give Alex a kiss, and
then you take a seat.
(laughs)
Then there's a little
yadda, yadda, yadda
about marriage in general,
and then some blah, blah, blah
about the two of you,
then do you, do
you, and you both do,
and you might as well kiss
the bride. Any questions?
(laughs)
Okay.
(door closing)
ALEX: How can I be so excited
and exhausted at the same time?
(laughs)
Dad, I think I'm gonna
take a quick shower
and I am off to bed.
I shouldn't have all that coffee
at the rehearsal dinner. Zing.
(both laughing)
I'm gonna read
my book for a while.
Okay. Here, let
me take that for you.
Thanks, darling. Good night.
Nighty night.
(radio beeping)
WOMAN 1 (on radio): I've got it.
MAN 1 (on radio): Okay, great.
WOMAN 2: I've gotta get up
really early, so don't forget...
MAN 2: I thought it would
be a good investment.
How'd I know they'd tank?
WOMAN 3: Well, come on.
You know, we need...
ALEX: Could I get you
anything before I go to bed?
GORDON: I'm fine.
Thank you, darling.
Okay. See you in the morning.
Night. Good night.
( ominous theme playing)
GORDON: Honey, that you?
You still awake?
Hey!
(screams)
(croaking)
( suspenseful theme playing)
Oh, Daddy.
(gasps)
(siren wailing)
We got a 67-year-old male
with a penetrating
wound to the chest.
Massive blood loss.
Vitals are pulse of
110, BP of 95 over 60.
Patient is extremely
diaphoretic.
I've got bilateral
IVs wide open,
on oxygen full blast.
We're coming to you
code three with a
ETA of three minutes.
(door opens)
PARAMEDIC: Doc, I
got a 67-year-old male
who was stabbed in the chest
with some type of sharp object.
He's lost approximately
two liters of blood.
Just prior to our arrival...
You're gonna have
to wait here. Wait here.
Just prior to our arrival
I noticed that there was
diminished breath sounds
on the left-hand side.
What happened?
There was a man.
He was... He was in my
bedroom and my Dad...
Oh, Walker, it was so horrible.
There was a piece of ice
sticking out of my Dad's chest.
(crying)
DOCTOR: Miss Cahill?
How is he?
Well, he did lose a
substantial amount of blood.
One lung was collapsed
and there was some
damage to the aorta.
He's gonna be all right though?
Yes, yes, he's a very lucky man.
An inch closer to the heart...
But he is going to be
laid up for quite some time.
I'm sorry.
Why?
Why is this happening?
(crying)
All right, Alex
said that her father
was stabbed with an ice knife.
An ice knife?
Yeah, the wound is consistent
with the other three victims.
Ice. That would explain
why there's been no
weapons recovered.
Yeah. Trivette, contact
ViCAP and Interpol
and see if there's been
any similar murders
in the past two years.
You got it.
Okay, I want you
two to check the files
of three victims
and see if there's
any connection
between them and Alex.
All right. Right.
I can't believe it.
I can't believe I didn't
kill her first, then him.
Did she get a look at you?
Yeah.
I don't know how good a look,
but she definitely got a look.
When this is over,
I'm gonna have to
go to Switzerland
and buy myself a new face.
Mm, that's too bad,
because I was
kind of getting fond
of the one you've got.
(siren wailing)
(Alex sniffling)
Hey, hey.
Big girls don't cry.
Dad, I was so scared.
(laughs)
Me too, darling.
Me too.
SYDNEY: Ran a complete
background check on Alex
and the other three victims.
Came up with nothing.
GAGE: There is
absolutely no connection
between any of them.
Which is kind of strange
in and of itself. I mean,
you would think even
just by coincidence
there would have
to be something.
They're being killed at
random. I wonder why.
I ran all that data
through the computer.
You're not gonna believe
it. Ten separate incidents.
Cairo, London, Toronto,
New York, and just
last week Chicago.
Eight victims in each city,
single puncture wound
to the chest, no weapons.
I know what's happening.
Someone has a contract
to kill a specific individual,
and he kills seven
others to cover his tracks.
Hm, talk about cold-blooded.
No pun intended.
Who do you think hired this guy?
I know who hired him.
Johnson Carter.
What do you want, Walker, huh?
I got nothing to say to you.
I know you hired a
professional assassin
to kill Alex Cahill.
And I just came in
here to let you know
that if anything happens to her,
I'm gonna personally
take you out.
You know my reputation, Carter.
You know I can, and I will.
Now call off your killer,
or you're a dead man.
(panting)
(computer beeping)
Can you make it a little
darker around the eyes?
SKETCH ARTIST: How's that?
ALEX: That's him.
Will you e-mail this sketch
to the CIA, KGB, and Mossad?
See if they can put
a name to that face.
You got it.
Sorry, but once a
contract's been accepted,
it can't be canceled.
Alex Cahill will die,
and your client will pay
the balance of his bill.
All right,
then my client is prepared
to double your fee,
as long as you
take Walker out first.
You accept?
I accept.
Good.
(phone beeping)
Got it.
Name's Michael
Westmoreland, ex-CIA.
How ex?
Very. Left the agency
three years ago
after an incident
involving his superiors.
What'd he do then?
Dropped off the
face of the planet.
According to the guy
that I spoke to at Langley,
there were rumors that
he'd been a gun for hire.
Never anything more than rumors,
but he told me this.
This Westmoreland's
got a girlfriend
named Deirdre
Harris, also ex-CIA,
also deadly, also missing.
Can you get photos of them?
I tried that. These
guys are so good,
before they left the agency
they destroyed every piece
of information in their files.
He should be considered
armed and very dangerous.
If you have any information
regarding his whereabouts,
you're asked to call
the Texas Rangers
at 214-555-0198
Michael, maybe we should
just pass on this and go home.
We've got plenty of
money to live comfortably
for the rest of our lives.
It's not the money,
Deirdre. You know that.
It's the rush.
It's knowing that I can
do something better
than anyone else on the planet,
and this Walker just
makes it more challenging,
and that just makes it
that much more interesting.
Now look, I'm gonna
go take a shower,
and then we're gonna
go out for a nice dinner,
and then tomorrow I'm
gonna personally kill them both.
(chuckles)
( dramatic theme playing)
Hi. Hi.
How are you feeling?
I'm fine.
How are things going
with the wedding?
They're coming along.
I'm thinking of postponing
the wedding though.
What?
Just until you're
feeling better.
You'll do no such thing.
Took long enough for
that fella to propose to you.
Dad, I wanted you to
walk me down the aisle.
If it's God's will.
I just want you to
concentrate on that happy day,
and know that everything's
gonna work out all right, okay?
(sighs)
( ominous theme playing)
(car beeping)
(tires screeching)
(car starts)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(grunts)
You must be Deirdre.
I'm surprised Michael
let you come alone.
I don't need him.
( ominous theme playing)
(siren wailing)
(cocks gun)
According to early reports,
the assailant was
hiding in the house
when the Ranger returned,
and while information
is still coming in,
reports indicate that
the assailant, a female,
was pronounced
dead on the scene.
As many of you are aware,
Ranger Walker is engaged
to marry Tarrant County
assistant district
attorney Alex Cahill,
whose father, Gordon Cahill,
was recently
injured in an attack
at Miss Cahill's home.
TRIVETTE: I never thought
you'd be on the hit list.
I did.
Carter knows he
has to take me out
before Alex if he wants
to keep on breathing.
Since his girlfriend's dead,
you think this Westmoreland's
gonna cut his losses
and skip the country?
No. He'll come after
me, for two reasons.
One, I took his girlfriend out,
and second, his ego
won't allow himself to quit.
( suspenseful theme playing)
(tires screeching)
(siren wailing)
(car horns honking)
He changed his M.O.
They sure weren't ice bullets.
Yeah.
For a professional killer,
he's a pretty lousy shot.
Yeah, he was.
Trivette, have the M.E.
run a DNA test on the body.
You got it.
You got a reason?
You just said it.
I did?
Have you reached a verdict?
Yes, Your Honor, we have.
JUDGE: Mr. Foreman,
what say you?
In the matter of the State
of Texas v. Johnson Carter,
we find the accused
guilty on all counts.
(gavel bangs)
All right. Thanks, Mary.
M.E.'s expediting the DNA test,
but we won't have any
results for a few days.
We tracked down the
license plate on the car.
GAGE: The car was
stolen from the garage
at the Marquis Hotel.
TRIVETTE: Hey,
guys, check this out.
Oh, man. These
people have no idea
how close they came.
Take a look at this.
Oh.
That about seals it.
( wedding march theme playing)
You wear this jacket
and you be beating off
the ladies with a
stick, or my name,
she's not Giovanni Rossini.
Oh, scusi, signor.
Hey, guys. It's ready.
We sure appreciate
this, Giovanni.
Yeah, it took some doing
to get them here so soon,
but if Giovanni can't
get it done, no one can.
Hey, where's C.D.?
Stuck in Tokyo. They
got hit by a typhoon.
No flights in or out for
at least the next 24 hours.
GIOVANNI: Too bad.
(man clearing throat)
Oh, I'm gonna blow a sale.
(in Italian accent): Giovanni must
get back to work, okay? Good day.
Ah, ah, ah, ah.
Mark and I will take
our own tuxedos.
"Mark and I will take our own."
That's funny.
( wedding march theme playing)
CHRIS: I'm sorry
about your dad, Alex.
Thank you. Actually,
Walker and I are gonna take
a video over to the
hospital after the wedding.
Oh, that's a great idea.
SYDNEY: All right,
we have a little problem.
Just a little one.
How little?
The vocalist,
she has laryngitis.
Okay.
Donna, your daughter
sings, doesn't she?
Like an angel.
Well, then why don't we have
her sing the wedding song?
Oh, Alex, she'll love that.

(guests murmuring indistinctly)
Who presents this woman
to be married to this man?
I do.
( tender theme playing)
MINISTER: Dearly beloved,
we are gathered here today
to unite this woman, Alexandra,
and this man, Cordell,
in the bonds of holy matrimony.
( ominous theme playing)
MINISTER: In these
temporary times,
where a longtime investment
means holding on to something
for more than a week,
what does it take to
commit to someone
for the rest of one's life?
Love, strength,
honesty and faith,

( upbeat theme playing)
(guests cheering)
You know the first thing I
wanna do when we get to Paris?
Maybe the second thing I
wanna do when we get to Paris?
(laughs)
I wanna walk up
the Champs Élysées.
To the Arc de Triomphe.
(girl laughing)
WALKER: Well, hi, there.
(speaking French)
Pardon.
Oh. She is so cute.
She is.
Where's Stefan?
Sick. They called me
in at the last minute.
(speaking French)
(speaking French)
Well, then, looks
like we traded up.
Okay, you can take
the coach compartment
with Doreen and Jackie.
(speaking French)
(speaking French)
I can't believe it.
Believe what?
Well, I know it may sound silly,
but given our track record,
I was waiting for something
to go wrong, and it didn't.
It was an absolutely
perfect day.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Caught the bouquet, hm?
I told you I don't
wanna talk about it.
Oh, come on, Syd.
You know you wanted it.
I saw you in there throwing
elbows around to get to it.
What was that all about?
She's been touchy all day long.
I may not know
anything about women,
but today, compared to you,
I am Albert Einstein and
Thomas Edison put together.
Syd, you okay?
No, I'm not okay.
I'm 32 years old,
and you know what?
Forget about a relationship,
I haven't even had a
date in like three months.
And you know what?
I've caught that stupid
wedding bouquet four
times in the last two years.
So much for that.
Syd, Syd, listen
to me for a minute.
No.
Syd, you're a beautiful girl.
You are, and you're smart,
and you're funny,
and you can kick butt
with the best of them,
and the problem there
is that most guys are
gonna be stupid enough
to let that intimidate
them, but I guarantee you
that any guy out there
who is good enough for you,
he won't be intimidated.
Thanks.
(phone rings)
Yeah, Trivette.
Juan Martinez?
Are you sure?
Yeah, thanks.
What's up?
Trouble.
Actually what I would
really love is twins.
Twins?
(laughs)
Yes. Didn't I tell you
they run in my family?
Really?
Really. A boy and a
girl would be just perfect.
Twins?
(laughs)
Relax, honey.
Ranger Walker, we
have Ranger Trivette
patched through
on the cockpit radio.
He says it's urgent.
Yeah, Trivette?
Walker, listen.
The DNA test results
from the crash just came back.
The man in the car
was a local drug dealer
named Juan Martinez.
So that means that
Westmoreland is still alive.
Yeah, it does.
Okay, thanks, Trivette.
Thanks.
Hello, Walker.
How about if you
lead the three of us
up front to first class?
Real quiet.
Okay, attention, everyone.
Now I don't want
anybody to panic.
Everything's gonna be
okay, but unfortunately,
you're all gonna have
to complete your flight
back in coach.
Now let's go. Get up. Come on.
Move it.
And when we land,
make sure you request
a refund from the airline.
Come on, let's go. Let's go.
And you. You close the
curtain on your way out.
Hurry up. Let's go.
Chop, chop. Move it
Now why don't we just
have a seat right over here,
and, Walker, why
don't you have a seat
right here in the center?
Well, Walker, Miss Cahill.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Or should I say Mrs. Walker?
I guess congratulations
are in order.
(all murmuring indistinctly)
ALEX: I thought he was dead.
He killed a guy named Martinez,
put his body in the car
and jumped out
before it exploded.
Very good, Walker.
I knew he wouldn't let up
until one of us was dead,
so I had to figure out a
way to let your guard down,
and then it was just a
simple matter to discover
what flight you were on,
and the rest was
a piece of cake.
What do you want, Westmoreland?
What do I want?
That is such an
interesting question,
I mean, with the
implication and all,
as if I could even
know what I want,
and as if some how you
could even give it to me.
Before I tell you what I want,
you buckle up that seat belt.
Why?
Just do it.
Okay, you wanna
know what I want?
I'll tell you what I want.
I want to complete my mission.
I want to revenge
the death of Deirdre.
(chuckles)
And then I wanna
look you in the face
and I wanna see the fear
and defeat in your eyes
when you know this
plane is gonna crash,
and you and your
lovely wife are gonna die.
And there's nothing
you can do to stop it.
(all screaming)
He's dead.
God, Walker, what
are we gonna do?
( suspenseful theme playing)
Get the flight attendant.
(people screaming)
We really need you up front.
Is there a pilot onboard?
No. They always let us know
if there's another
pilot flying with us.
Go calm the passengers.
Tell them that everything
is under control.
Mayday. Mayday.
This is Flight 1558.
Do you read me?
(static crackling)
Mayday. Mayday. Mayday.
This is Flight 1558.
Do you read me?
(all screaming)
WALKER (on radio):
Mayday. Mayday. Mayday.
This is Flight 1558.
Do you read me?
Roger, Flight 1558.
This is the national
flight control center
in Washington, D.C.
What appears to be the problem?
WALKER: This is Texas
Ranger Cordell Walker.
The pilot and co-pilot are dead.
We've lost cabin pressure,
and I don't have the
slightest idea what to do.
Is there another pilot onboard?
No. Do you have
any flight experience, Ranger?
Not commercial.
That's okay, Ranger.
We're gonna get you through.
This is Captain Joe
Henderson, Ranger Walker.
Can you tell me what
altitude you're at?
Thirty thousand feet.
Okay, we're gonna need
you to get down to 15,000 feet
as fast as you can,
otherwise there's not gonna be
enough oxygen to breathe.
Okay, tell me how to do it.
First look for the
autopilot switch.
It should be at your 2 o'clock.
WALKER: I see it.
Take the yoke and
flip the switch off.
Now it may be a little bumpy,
so try to keep it as
steady as you can.
All right.
Here goes.
(all screaming)
(beeping) LARRY: He's dropping.
Ranger, you're going
to have to pull up now.
(alarm blaring)
(all screaming)
I can't pull the yoke back.
Well, the hydraulics
must be damaged.
You have to pull
it back, Ranger.
Alex, grab the
yoke and pull back.
(all screaming)
He's steady.
(sighs)
JOE: Nice work, Ranger.
You're at 15,000 feet.
Keep it steady as you can.
(indistinct murmuring)
Ranger, you are
currently 300 miles
east of Savannah, Georgia.
What do we do now?
We're going to need you
to turn the plane
back toward land.
Before you make the turn,
make sure that
you are stabilized.
Look right in front of you.
There is a flight directory
gauge at 2 o'clock.
It took a bullet.
I can't read it.
TRIVETTE: What flight was
he scheduled to work on?
Fifteen fifty-eight.
The body of the flight attendant
was found in his
house in Irving.
He was supposed to work
Trans-international Flight 1558.
That's Walker and Alex's flight.
JOE: You wanna go
nice and slow now.
Keep your eye on the altimeter.
Bring your right
wing up 15 degrees.
All right, here it goes.
(all murmuring)
Okay, 15 degrees.
JOE: That's good work, Ranger.
You're getting the hang of this.
Yeah, right.
According to reports
from DFW Airport,
Trans-international Flight 1558
has experienced
difficulties on its flight
from Dallas to Paris.
That flight has been
diverted to McLaughlin Airport
near Savannah, Georgia,
where emergency
crews are standing by.
What now?
You are currently
85 miles off the coast.
We are going to need
you to begin your descent.
JOE: First you're going to
need to dump your excess fuel.
There should be a switch
right above your head.
WALKER: Yeah, I see it.
Fuel's dumped.
You want to come in
on the setting of 276.
Two, seven, six.
Nice work, Ranger.
Okay, now you need to
lower your landing gear.
The switch is gone.
Who do you have there with you?
This is Alex Cahill Walker.
I'm his wife.
We were on our way
to our honeymoon.
Congratulations.
Okay, Mrs. Walker, this
is what I want you to do.
On the floor between
the seats there should be
a small hatch. You'll
need to open it up.
I see it.
You're going to
have to pull it up
and turn it clockwise.
(air hissing)
That's as far as it'll go.
They're down.
You can't be serious.
Now we're gonna fly
into a thunderstorm?
Ranger Walker, is there
anything I can do to help?
We'll be landing soon.
Have the passengers prepare
for an emergency landing.
You got it.
Okay, I need everybody
to prepare for an
emergency landing.
I need everybody very
quickly to make sure
that your seats are
in an upright position.
I need you to make sure
that you're buckled in,
and then what I
need you to do for me
is place your hands
and cross them
and grab the seat
in front of you like so,
and then everybody
just stay calm
and as cool as possible.
(siren wailing)
We're live and on the scene
here at McLaughlin Airport
where a Trans-international
jet is about to make
an emergency landing.
While the details
are still coming in,
we do know the pilot
and the co-pilot are dead.
The plane is being piloted
by Texas Ranger Cordell Walker.
All right, now you
need to lower your flaps.
The lever is on the
right of your throttle.
He's coming in a little hot.
Ranger, are the
flaps fully extended?
They won't go any further.
You're coming in
too low and too fast.
Oh, my God,
Walker, the billboard.
He's still too fast.
You've got to get
your flaps down.
(screams)
You've got to get
those flaps down.
Now they're down.
All right, Ranger,
with that hit you took,
your landing gear might
not hold when you land,
so as soon as you touch down,
you're going to
need to pull back
the thrust reversers,
the red covered
switches above your head.
You can open those covers now.
Then you're going to need
to apply the brakes as gently
as you possibly can.
Too much stress and the
landing gear could collapse.
(all screaming)
NEWS ANCHOR: We
just received a report
that the landing gear
is badly damaged.
( suspenseful theme playing)
( heroic theme playing)
They've landed safely.
(all cheering)
Yes!
(sirens wailing)
Oh, yes!
Do you want a beer?
Yeah.
You guys, I wasn't
worried for a minute.
(panting)
Maybe just a little.
(sirens wailing)
Well, Mrs. Walker,
should we try it again?
You better believe it, cowboy.
I'm not gonna let you
off the hook that easy.
Paris or bust.
( upbeat theme playing)
ALEX: I can't believe
we finally made it to Paris.
You said on the plane
that the second thing
you wanna do
when we get to Paris
was go for a walk.
What was the first
thing you wanted to do?
ALEX: Oh, Walker, we
may never take that walk.
