00:01:35Would you believe it?
00:01:36It's dark already.
00:01:37I'm late.
00:01:39I'll see you, honey.
00:01:39Hey.
00:01:41Hey.
00:01:42I'm not going to let you go.
00:01:54I'm not going to let you.

00:01:58I'm not going to let you go.
00:02:28I'm not going to let you go.
00:02:58Stay away from that young guy.
00:02:59What?
00:03:01Hey, who is this anyway?
00:03:02Never mind.
00:03:03Just do what I say.
00:03:05Stay away from him.
00:03:06You understand?
00:03:07Stay away from him.
00:03:09Who is this?
00:03:12Hello?
00:03:13Hello?
00:03:16Hello?
00:03:18For she's a jolly good fellow.
00:03:22For she's a jolly good fellow.
00:03:27And nobody can deny.
00:03:30Okay, okay, I'll try.
00:03:36Yeah?
00:03:36Thank you, we should.
00:03:39Hey!
00:03:41I didn't think I could do it.
00:03:42There were so many of them.
00:03:44Oh, come on.
00:03:45You're only 23, Tina.
00:03:46Wait until you're 45.
00:03:48It's 46.
00:03:49Oh, if you were wearing that gun, Joe Market.
00:03:52Oh, but I am, sweetie.
00:03:56Steve, what kind of friends does your wife have?
00:03:59Oh, they're killers, every single one of them.
00:04:02Right, honey?
00:04:02Right.
00:04:03Whoops.
00:04:04Look and learn, sweetie.
00:04:05Married almost a year and still smooching in public.
00:04:08Live with your father-in-law.
00:04:09You don't have much choice.
00:04:10Right?
00:04:13Selma, why don't you serve the coffee?
00:04:15I'll cut the cake when my dad comes.
00:04:17Sure, honey.
00:04:17Where's the old bear anyway?
00:04:19Probably out on a job.
00:04:21You know what I mean?
00:04:21Oh, now, come on.
00:04:22Don't joke about it, please.
00:04:24Come on, funny little...
00:04:25I worry about him, Steve.
00:04:30I can't help it.
00:04:31Worry about me?
00:04:33You know what I wished for?
00:04:36I wished you and my dad would get along better.
00:04:39We will, as soon as you and I move out of here.
00:04:42Steve, I don't see what difference it makes.
00:04:47Daddy!
00:04:50We've been waiting for you.
00:04:52Working late, huh, Ed?
00:04:53I'm sorry, baby.
00:04:54Good help.
00:04:55That's okay, you're here now.
00:04:57Listen, everybody, we can cut the cake now.
00:04:59I've been wondering where you were, you bird.
00:05:01Good luck.
00:05:02Good luck.
00:05:03Okay, everybody.
00:05:04Here we go.
00:05:06I can't wait.
00:05:07I'm happy.
00:05:09I'm happy.
00:05:10I'm happy.
00:05:11I'm happy.
00:05:14Oh, my God.
00:05:16Okay.
00:05:17Let's go.
00:05:18Let's go.
00:05:19Let's go.
00:05:38Steve-o.
00:05:40You want to go bowling tonight?
00:05:43No, I'm taking Tina to a movie.
00:05:45Oh, yeah. Our old man just called a few minutes ago.
00:05:47He wants you to stop by before you go home.
00:05:54Same old junk.
00:05:58You wouldn't have any of that birthday cake, would you?
00:06:02You got any of that birthday cake?
00:06:08Here you can have it.
00:06:09Well, I don't want it all.
00:06:10See if you can have it.
00:06:15Oh, let's go.
00:06:16Oh, let's go.
00:06:17Oh.
00:06:18Oh, let's go.
00:06:19Oh, let's go.
00:06:22Oh, let's go.
00:06:23Oh, let's go.
00:06:26Oh, let's go.
00:06:28Oh, let's go.
00:06:29Oh, I see.
00:06:30He's inside.
00:06:31Isn't it important?
00:06:32It beats me.
00:06:33I guess I better hang around.
00:06:34Do you know, Sergeant Sag?
00:06:35Yeah, I know.
00:06:36He arrested my son.
00:06:37He says he stole a car.
00:06:38I don't believe it. He's never been in trouble before.
00:06:40Well, he's in trouble now, mister.
00:06:42Joe. Oh, Sergeant.
00:06:43There ain't no other kids being released, will you?
00:06:44I don't want to hold them any longer. We have to.
00:06:46Sure.
00:06:46You got a lawyer?
00:06:47Yes, Sergeant.
00:06:48You got a lawyer.
00:06:48You got a hold of him. Your boy will be arraigned in a couple of hours.
00:06:50Come on, he's silent.
00:06:51Sergeant, you're making a mistake.
00:06:52I wish I were.
00:06:53But he's only 17. He's on the auto law at school.
00:06:57And he snatched somebody's car, went for a joyride, and wrecked it.
00:07:00Now, look, Mr. Hamlin, if you want your kid to think that he can break the law and get away with it,
00:07:04that's your business.
00:07:05But don't ask me to hold your hand. Come on.
00:07:08Sergeant, don't you understand.
00:07:17Sit down.
00:07:19Pretty rough on that poor guy, weren't you?
00:07:20What are you talking about?
00:07:21It's not my fault he didn't teach his kid to respect the law. Now, go ahead, sit down.
00:07:29If the guy doesn't know the difference between right and wrong, you might as well be living in it three.
00:07:32Do you agree?
00:07:36What's this all about, huh?
00:07:38Tina.
00:07:40Do you love her?
00:07:41Huh?
00:07:42I asked you a question. Do you love her?
00:07:44Sure, I love her.
00:07:48Did she ever tell you about her, Mother?
00:07:51No.
00:07:52No, she ran out on us, both of us, when Tina was only 10.
00:07:54Tina is all I've got.
00:08:02All.
00:08:04Don't I know it.
00:08:05How many times have you been to that dame's apartment?
00:08:08What dame's?
00:08:08You know what this would do to Tina if she found out about it.
00:08:13Well, not about what, Sergeant. I don't know what you're talking about.
00:08:15You know damn well what I'm talking about.
00:08:17It's been in my gut for a week now.
00:08:20Louise Campbell, that's what I'm talking about.
00:08:21Now, how many times?
00:08:23Once, twice, seven, twenty.
00:08:24How many times?
00:08:26How many?
00:08:27You think they have some punk to pull them off the street?
00:08:29Get smart with me.
00:08:30I know you've been seeing this, Campbell, Dame, and I want it stopped.
00:08:33Now.
00:08:34Think about it, Sergeant.
00:08:35You're damn right you'll think about it.
00:08:37You'll do it.
00:08:38That's what you'll do.
00:08:39You'll do it.
00:08:41I'm not going to let my Tina be hurt.
00:08:44In my book, she comes ahead of everybody.
00:08:45You, me, everybody.
00:08:47And why don't you let her go?
00:08:48Everything.
00:08:48She still comes running to you for everything.
00:08:50We've been married for almost a year, and I still don't know whose wife she is.
00:08:52Yours or mine?
00:08:53I'm kind of a curse.
00:08:54You know how many times I've pleaded with her to move out of that house of yours?
00:08:56She thinks we can't manage without Papa.
00:08:58Well, let me tell you something, Sergeant, I can manage without Papa.
00:09:03Stay waiting for that, Damey, here.
00:09:05Damey!
00:09:06Stay with her!
00:09:28Hi, Dad.
00:09:34Hello, baby.
00:09:41When you knit, remember?
00:09:46Picked up a couple of tickets for the devil here this Sunday.
00:09:48I thought you didn't like this boy.
00:09:51Uh, Steve does.
00:09:53I figured you and he might want to get away from you a minute for a while.
00:09:56Daddy, you're sweet.
00:09:58Well, not yet, but I'm working on it.
00:10:00Hey, I thought you two were going to the movies tonight.
00:10:02We didn't.
00:10:05If you're hungry, we have piles of cold chicken in the refrigerator.
00:10:11Sweetheart,
00:10:11you and Steve,
00:10:14you, uh,
00:10:16are you having any trouble?
00:10:19What trouble?
00:10:20Am I keeping you from moving out of here?
00:10:24Huh?
00:10:25Sweetheart, because if I am...
00:10:26Hey, how does this look so far?
00:10:27Do you think Steve will like it?
00:10:29Well, he'd better.
00:10:30Where is he?
00:10:31Home, isn't he?
00:10:32Nope.
00:10:33I'll go and fix you there, Chip.
00:10:36That's a chance.
00:10:38Well, he had to work late again tonight.
00:10:40He phoned me.
00:10:41Some kind of emergency.
00:10:43Daddy, I wish you'd
00:10:45talk to him about working late so much.
00:10:51Do you want to hear something funny?
00:10:53Hmm?
00:10:57I worry about him.
00:10:59All the time.
00:11:00Even at night sometimes
00:11:02I wake up and I look at him
00:11:04just to see if he's breathing.
00:11:09Isn't that weird?
00:11:11No.
00:11:13No, not if you love him that much.
00:11:16Don't you dare tell him about this.
00:11:19I think I'm crazy or something.
00:11:22Okay?
00:11:26Cold chicken coming up.
00:11:30Cold chicken coming down.
00:12:00It's crazy.
00:12:02I'll get her out of here.
00:12:17Keep it cool.
00:12:19Yeah, thanks.
00:12:20Thanks for listening.
00:12:21Anytime.
00:12:30Wait, oh.
00:12:44I'm sorry.
00:12:46I thought you were someone else.
00:12:47May I come in, Miss Campbell?
00:12:49What do you want?
00:12:50It'll take long.
00:12:52Hey, just a minute.
00:12:53Who do you think you are?
00:12:54You've got no rent coming in.
00:12:55Look who's talking about.
00:12:56Right.
00:12:57What is this?
00:12:58What do you want?
00:12:59My name is Stagg.
00:13:00Sergeant Edward Stagg.
00:13:02Does that mean anything to you?
00:13:04Oh, are you going to bust me, Sergeant?
00:13:07Well, look, if you don't have a warrant, I'd like you to leave.
00:13:09Steve Butler is my son-in-law.
00:13:13Oh.
00:13:14Oh, I see.
00:13:17Well, look, Sergeant, it's 10.30.
00:13:18It is a little late for a social call.
00:13:21I don't pay social calls on traps.
00:13:23Get out of here.
00:13:25Go out, kid.
00:13:29You want me out of here?
00:13:34You better listen.
00:13:38You and Steve have had it.
00:13:40It's finished.
00:13:43Yeah.
00:13:44You were the one on the telephone.
00:13:46Man, some call.
00:13:52You're going to have to get somebody else to pay your bills.
00:13:57That shouldn't be too hard.
00:14:01There's a guy in every street corner just dying to get something like you.
00:14:04How much do you want?
00:14:14Click, click.
00:14:15Right and wrong.
00:14:16Nothing in between.
00:14:18Man, Steve sure had you pick.
00:14:19I don't want anything, Sergeant.
00:14:21I just want to turn around and get out of here.
00:14:23My daughter doesn't know anything about you and Steve, and she's not going to know.
00:14:27Go on, Sergeant.
00:14:29I'm tired of going to pen.
00:14:30It's over.
00:14:31You understand?
00:14:31It's over.
00:14:33The next time he calls, you tell him you've had it.
00:14:35You never want to see him again, ever.
00:14:37Look, Sergeant, don't try to run my line.
00:14:39It's not my line.
00:14:40You listen to me.
00:14:40You no good little...
00:14:41Go on.
00:14:42Get out of here.
00:14:43My daughter.
00:14:43You are not going to hurt my daughter.
00:14:45Is that clear?
00:14:46You are not going to hurt her.
00:14:48There's only one person hurting that kid of yours, and it's not me.
00:14:52What do you mean?
00:14:59Well, who do you think is running Steve out of your house?
00:15:01Me?
00:15:03You shut up.
00:15:03Shut up.
00:15:04Oh, you think Steve's coming over here because he's crazy in love with me?
00:15:08Well, I'm not that lucky, Sergeant.
00:15:09I just happen to be a big girl, so don't you point that finger at me.
00:15:12If anyone is lusting up their lives, it's you, man.
00:15:15You.
00:15:16I told you to...
00:15:17Shut up, DeRay!
00:15:22Sorry.
00:15:43Sorry.
00:15:43I...
00:15:43I didn't mean to hurt you.
00:15:57But you...
00:15:58Hey.
00:16:20Hey.
00:16:21Hey.
00:16:21Hey.
00:16:21Hey.
00:16:21Hey.
00:16:22Hey.
00:16:23Hey, Miss Campbell.
00:16:24Hey, hey.
00:16:53Oh, my God.
00:16:56Oh, my God.
00:17:23Oh, my God.
00:17:31Police headquarters.
00:17:33I want a report.
00:17:38I want her.
00:17:42You'll have to speak up, mister. I can't hear you.
00:17:46Hello?
00:17:49Hello?
00:17:51Hello?
00:18:53Last time we were on a rollercoaster with our first date.
00:18:57Why don't we go this Saturday?
00:19:00I saw him today. He told me about your mother.
00:19:04Why should he do that?
00:19:06He never talked about her.
00:19:08He did today.
00:19:09Steve, it was awful.
00:19:16I'd never heard a grown man cry before.
00:19:19I can still hear it sometime.
00:19:24It was 13 years ago. He's not crying anymore.
00:19:28Steve.
00:19:31Steve, I love you.
00:19:33I love you so much.
00:19:35She knew there's something I want to tell you.
00:19:36Just tell me you love me.
00:19:38That's all I want to hear.
00:19:41You know I do.
00:19:42Let's do it, Steve.
00:19:44Let's make believe it's our first date all over again.
00:19:48We'll eat cotton candy
00:19:50and throw face balls
00:19:52and buy popcorn.
00:19:53I can't catch up with you.
00:19:55You're like a little kid.
00:19:56Well, it's better than being serious and grumpy
00:19:59like some people I know.
00:20:02You're a character.
00:20:04Daddy?
00:20:06Daddy?
00:20:07Daddy, guess what?
00:20:08Steve and I are going on a rollercoaster this Saturday.
00:20:11What's wrong?
00:20:21I still have that cold chicken if you want it.
00:20:23I'm not hungry.
00:20:23Are you sure?
00:20:24It's only...
00:20:25I'm not hungry!
00:20:27Take care of your husband.
00:20:28Leave me alone.
00:20:29Steve, what's the matter with him?
00:20:32Stay out of it.
00:20:40Hey.
00:20:41Sergeant, why take it out on her?
00:20:44You can be sore with me, okay?
00:20:48Listen.
00:20:51I'm trying to tell you something.
00:20:54You're right about one thing.
00:20:55I don't want Tina to be hurt.
00:20:56You know why you have to mess around with that date for anyway?
00:20:58Why?
00:20:59You're right, didn't I?
00:21:01It's all over.
00:21:01I'm not going to see her anymore.
00:21:02I'm wrapping it up.
00:21:03I'm going to level with Tina right now.
00:21:05I'm going to tell her all the bodies.
00:21:06No, you're not.
00:21:07You're not going to tell her anything.
00:21:08Not one word.
00:21:09Not one word about you and that tramp.
00:21:10Is that clear?
00:21:11Now, wait a minute, Sergeant.
00:21:13No, don't harm you with me.
00:21:13She couldn't take it.
00:21:14She'd fall apart.
00:21:16At the end of the world.
00:21:17It would be for her.
00:21:18You don't know her like I do.
00:21:20We've got to protect her.
00:21:21We have to, you and me.
00:21:22We can't let anything tie you in with that tramp.
00:21:24Nothing.
00:21:25You say so.
00:21:33Yes, I do.
00:21:33I do.
00:21:34We have to protect her.
00:21:35We have to.
00:21:36That's all I'm trying to do.
00:21:38Just, just trying to protect her.
00:21:41Trying to protect her.
00:21:42I got it.
00:22:03Police says, Porter, Sergeant Marcus.
00:22:04Just a minute.
00:22:12Go ahead.
00:22:14Yeah.
00:22:16Yeah.
00:22:18Uh-huh.
00:22:20Okay, I got it.
00:22:21We'll get right on it.
00:22:23What was that?
00:22:24Hold on.
00:22:26Hey, Mike.
00:22:27Jump right on this, will you?
00:22:29Brushery Shore on Fifth Street.
00:22:30Okay, Pop.
00:22:35Right here.
00:22:36Sit down.
00:22:39Yeah.
00:22:41He says he killed his best friend.
00:22:45When this happened, Pop?
00:22:48I don't know.
00:22:52Two, three, four days ago.
00:22:55I don't remember.
00:22:58How'd you kill him?
00:23:01I...
00:23:01What's your friend's name, Pop?
00:23:11What's your name?
00:23:15Put him away.
00:23:16Let him sleep it off.
00:23:17We'll talk.
00:23:18Okay, let's go, Pop.
00:23:20Please, please.
00:23:21All right.
00:23:22Easy now.
00:23:23Easy.
00:23:24You'll get a nice, long snooze.
00:23:27Easy now.
00:23:28Easy now.
00:23:31That'll be one of those days.
00:23:33Drunks looking for a place to sleep.
00:23:35A fight with my wife.
00:23:37Hey, Ed.
00:23:38You ever get married again?
00:23:40Stay away from women who like to buy hats by the pound.
00:23:43Hello.
00:23:44Check this out, William.
00:23:45It's a cleaning woman on Williams Street.
00:23:47That's a bitch.
00:23:48She was a little hysterical.
00:23:49I didn't get very much.
00:23:50She said she found this girl that she works for stretched out on a couch.
00:23:53It might be a homicide.
00:23:54Get right on her.
00:23:55Ed, you better go with him.
00:23:57In case it is a homicide, I'd like to have it cleaned up quick.
00:24:00Yes, sir.
00:24:00Then I shook her, Sergeant.
00:24:22I thought she was asleep or something.
00:24:25But she was cold.
00:24:26I mean, really cold.
00:24:27And then I saw the blood.
00:24:29And, well, I was so scared.
00:24:31I didn't know what to do.
00:24:32And that's when I called the police.
00:24:34Hey, Ed.
00:24:36Ed.
00:24:36Blood.
00:24:43Looks like an accident, huh?
00:24:45Maybe she got dizzy and fell down to her head.
00:24:48How'd she get to the couch?
00:24:52Well, I guess she got up somehow and managed to reach there before she passed out.
00:24:58What about it, Doc?
00:25:01Not a chance.
00:25:02She died a few seconds after she received a blow on the head.
00:25:05What about time?
00:25:07Oh, at least ten hours.
00:25:09Maybe more.
00:25:10I'll tell you after the autopsy.
00:25:13Oh, Sergeant.
00:25:14The only way she got on that couch was if someone put her there.
00:25:22Miss Simmons.
00:25:24Did you move Miss Campbell's body?
00:25:26No, sir.
00:25:27I told this, Sergeant.
00:25:29I came in here and I found her lying on the couch.
00:25:31Okay, okay.
00:25:33You through with her head?
00:25:34Yeah, you can go now, Mr. Simmons.
00:25:37We'll call you again if we need you.
00:25:43Probably find her prints all over the place.
00:25:46The way I figured it, Ed, she could have had an argument with somebody.
00:25:50He knocked her down, she hit her head, he got scared.
00:25:55So, he picked her up, carried her over to the couch.
00:26:01Probably didn't even know she was dead.
00:26:03Maybe even tried to pull her out of it.
00:26:04But this might give us a nice set of prints.
00:26:05This might give us a nice set of prints.
00:26:10Well, what do you think, sound logical?
00:26:12Yeah, yeah.
00:26:13It makes sense.
00:26:14Sergeant, this guy outside of the upstairs, he said he saw someone hang around the door last night.
00:26:17Check him out, will you, Ed?
00:26:19I want to find out what's holding up.
00:26:20Turn your breath.
00:26:21I didn't see his face.
00:26:22It's always so dark out here at night, you could break a leg anyway.
00:26:25He was a man about, well, about your size, Sergeant.
00:26:30That's all I know.
00:26:30Then you wouldn't recognize him if you saw him again, huh?
00:26:34No.
00:26:34No.
00:26:35No.
00:26:36No.
00:26:37No.
00:26:38No.
00:26:39No.
00:26:40No.
00:26:41No.
00:26:42No.
00:26:43No.
00:26:44No.
00:26:45No.
00:26:46No.
00:26:47No.
00:26:48No.
00:26:49No.
00:26:50No.
00:26:51No.
00:26:52No.
00:26:53No.
00:26:54No.
00:26:55No.
00:26:56Don't tell him, sir.
00:26:57But he wasn't that young fella.
00:26:58I mean, that much I can tell you.
00:26:59What young fella?
00:27:00Well, the one she went out with.
00:27:01I mean, him I saw a lot of times.
00:27:03Do you know his name?
00:27:05Uh, no.
00:27:06What does he look like?
00:27:08What a dame might bet.
00:27:10He said she must've gone out with a train load of gears.
00:27:13Maybe.
00:27:14But this is the only one we know about so far.
00:27:16What's he look like?
00:27:17Uh, young.
00:27:19About thirty years old.
00:27:21Tall.
00:27:22Good looking.
00:27:22Um, oh.
00:27:24He always looked mad, Sergeant.
00:27:26I'd give him a hello, and he never smiled.
00:27:28Not once.
00:27:29Do you think he killed her?
00:27:31Well, that's what we're here to find out.
00:27:33Come on in.
00:27:36Check the dresser.
00:27:37I'll tackle the desk.
00:27:38Maybe we'll come up lucky.
00:27:39Something with his name on it.
00:27:40Maybe even a picture.
00:27:41What about fingerprint?
00:27:42They haven't been here yet, have they?
00:27:44So be careful.
00:27:46Why don't we come back here later?
00:27:47Give fingerprint a chance to do the job first.
00:27:49In the meantime, we can check out that place where she used to work.
00:27:52Like, uh, on 10th Street, huh?
00:27:54Does that make more sense to you?
00:27:56Okay.
00:28:01Go.
00:28:02Yeah.
00:28:03I told her she was going to get in trouble going after that guy.
00:28:05That was a married man and all that, you know what I mean?
00:28:08You know his name?
00:28:09Uh-uh.
00:28:09Never met him.
00:28:11He was some kind of a working stiff.
00:28:12You know, docks, oil fields, something.
00:28:14What about other guys?
00:28:15She went out with other guys, didn't she?
00:28:17She only went with one man at a time, Sergeant.
00:28:19This month it was strictly him.
00:28:21You know if she saw him last night.
00:28:22Yeah.
00:28:23He called a little after six.
00:28:25She said he was real sorry.
00:28:27Wanted to see her right away.
00:28:28They were to meet at this restaurant, the, uh, Red Wall.
00:28:32You know it?
00:28:33Yeah.
00:28:34Poor kid.
00:28:36She was a sucker for a sad story.
00:28:38Any guy who was in trouble had it made.
00:28:40What kind of trouble was he in?
00:28:42Something with his father-in-law.
00:28:44Seems that the old man wanted everything his own way.
00:28:47Real character, Luis.
00:28:48Maybe his way was the right way.
00:28:49Who knows?
00:28:50You show me a guy who's right all the time.
00:28:52There's no such animal.
00:28:55Thanks.
00:29:06We might as well check that restaurant.
00:29:09Yeah, you go ahead.
00:29:10I just thought of a couple more questions I'd like to ask that character.
00:29:13It's a waste of time, Ed.
00:29:14All right, take my car.
00:29:15I'll grab a cab.
00:29:16You'd be better off coming with me.
00:29:18I've been on the force for over 25 years.
00:29:20I don't know what I'm doing by now.
00:29:21Good luck.
00:29:23Batsy!
00:30:11Sergeant, how long have you been on the force?
00:30:25Three years.
00:30:26And you haven't heard about not smoking on duty?
00:30:27Sergeant, no one was here and I thought I'd...
00:30:29You're here, aren't you?
00:30:30And you're in uniform.
00:30:30Now put it out.
00:30:41Anybody here besides those ambulance guys?
00:30:50Only a fingerprint, Sergeant.
00:30:51He left about five minutes ago.
00:30:52And you're in uniform.
00:31:22And you're in uniform.
00:31:52What do you find, Jim?
00:32:04Don't say.
00:32:05Well, we've got to hit the jackpot sometime.
00:32:10Maybe we'll wrap this one up with a confession, huh?
00:32:13Right.
00:32:14What was that?
00:32:20Remember that old bum walked in this morning?
00:32:23Said he killed his best friend?
00:32:25Yeah.
00:32:25He did.
00:32:26Now, you'd never think an old boo sound like that would have that much conscience, would you?
00:32:32You dig up anything?
00:32:33No, I went back to the apartment, checked it out there.
00:32:36They didn't find a thing.
00:32:40Ed, did you kill her?
00:32:41What kind of a joke is that?
00:32:48Dumb hot shot detective.
00:32:53I've been on the force more than 25 years.
00:32:56I know what I'm doing.
00:32:57Hey, remember this?
00:33:02Know whose prints were on it?
00:33:04Yours, you clumsy jerk.
00:33:06What do you want?
00:33:08A confession?
00:33:09What I want to know is when you put your big paws all over it.
00:33:12I don't know.
00:33:13When you were talking to the doctor, I guess.
00:33:17Handling evidence like a wet-nosed rookie.
00:33:19And I always thought you were the perfect cop.
00:33:21So, I goofed up.
00:33:23It happens.
00:33:23What about that so-called boyfriend of hers?
00:33:26Did you find anything?
00:33:28Sure did.
00:33:29He was with her last night.
00:33:31In a republic?
00:33:32No.
00:33:33Arrest her.
00:33:34A waiter there, remember?
00:33:35The description fits.
00:33:37We'll pick him up.
00:33:38But, uh, you don't know that he went to an apartment, do you?
00:33:42Well, it figures, doesn't it?
00:33:43He's married.
00:33:44The guy at the diner said he was sore when he called her.
00:33:47Chances are his wife was making waves, so they had to break it up.
00:33:51So they had dinner.
00:33:52Went back to her apartment.
00:33:54Had a few choice words.
00:33:56She landed on her head.
00:33:59How can you be so sure that we'll be able to pick him up?
00:34:01We know where he works.
00:34:04Docks or oil fields.
00:34:07A thousand guys.
00:34:09Only one looks like this.
00:34:30See?
00:34:31I'm in here.
00:34:54Hi.
00:34:54Is your father home yet?
00:35:03No.
00:35:03No.
00:35:16Rough day, huh?
00:35:18Yeah.
00:35:19I had a rough day.
00:35:27You know what I'm deciding?
00:35:29I'm going to start an organic vegetable garden in the backyard.
00:35:32We're going to have carrots and radishes and tomatoes.
00:35:40How does that sound?
00:35:42It sounds fine.
00:35:43It sounds fine.
00:35:45You're the only farmer I know, and all you can say is sounds fine.
00:35:49Hey, babe, I'm just not with it today.
00:35:53I'm counting on you for advice.
00:35:55Well, I'm no farmer.
00:35:58You were born on one.
00:36:00Yeah, my parents lost it when I was five.
00:36:02So, you've got five years more experience than I do.
00:36:07Too much.
00:36:08You know that.
00:36:12Okay.
00:36:14Just wait and see.
00:36:15We're going to have tomatoes.
00:36:18That big.
00:36:19If I get near them.
00:36:20See, I've been thinking.
00:36:30Maybe you were right.
00:36:32Maybe we should go away for a while.
00:36:37Just you and me.
00:36:39Put that on.
00:36:41Well, that's what you wanted, isn't it?
00:36:43They owe you a vacation.
00:36:46Maybe we can even leave tomorrow.
00:36:47Walk out of my job.
00:36:48Just like that.
00:36:49Walk out of my job.
00:36:50Why not?
00:36:51It's better than being unhappy all the time.
00:36:54Oh, Steve, I just...
00:36:56I just want us to love each other.
00:36:58I live happily ever after like in the storybooks.
00:37:00Yeah, I know.
00:37:00Well, it doesn't happen.
00:37:01Forget it.
00:37:02Why shouldn't it?
00:37:03Because I'm just a guy, that's all.
00:37:04Take a look at me.
00:37:05I'm just a guy.
00:37:06I don't have a suit of armor.
00:37:07I don't have a white horse.
00:37:08I wouldn't know how to fight a dragon if I saw one.
00:37:09I'm just a guy, that's all.
00:37:11I do stupid things.
00:37:12I make mistakes.
00:37:16Sergeant, I want to talk to you.
00:37:20I'll shut it.
00:37:22I'll shut it.
00:37:22You say anything to Tina.
00:37:49I didn't kill her, Sergeant.
00:37:50Believe me, I don't know anything about her.
00:37:51I don't want to keep her saying anything to her.
00:37:52No, not yet.
00:37:52I'll see that you keep it that way.
00:37:54Good little.
00:37:54They have that sketch.
00:37:55Sooner or later, they'll pin it down when we in.
00:37:57Not if you keep your mouth shut.
00:37:59Yeah.
00:38:01Around that in her apartment.
00:38:03Maybe you want to put it in your scrapbook.
00:38:04Look, Sergeant, I'm sorry you found out about this.
00:38:06That's all I ask.
00:38:07You can kill her.
00:38:09All right.
00:38:09I didn't even see her that night.
00:38:11Believe me, that's the truth.
00:38:13All right, it's the truth.
00:38:14Sergeant, listen.
00:38:16I know you wouldn't cover for me if you thought I was guilty, but I'll leave it.
00:38:18I'll leave it.
00:38:19Can't you?
00:38:19Can't you just leave it alone?
00:38:20Sure, I used to date her.
00:38:37But I haven't seen her in like two months.
00:38:41How about the night she was killed?
00:38:43But I told you.
00:38:44Tell me again.
00:38:46The movies.
00:38:47I went to the movies.
00:38:48I wasn't anywhere near her place.
00:38:51Okay, you can go.
00:38:54Well, go on.
00:38:55Get out of here.
00:39:01Like fishing in a mud hole, Millie.
00:39:04Lieutenant just had a call, Ed.
00:39:06My girl's father.
00:39:08He got a letter from her the day before she died.
00:39:11She mentioned her boyfriend's name.
00:39:14Steve.
00:39:17That's right, Ed.
00:39:18Narrows it down, doesn't it?
00:39:22Not funny, Joe.
00:39:27Look, Ed.
00:39:28You and me, we've been friends a long time.
00:39:32I mean, I've known Tina since she was that high.
00:39:34So?
00:39:34How are she and Steve getting along?
00:39:38Fine.
00:39:39Fine.
00:39:40Get along fine.
00:39:43Ed.
00:39:44I was here.
00:39:45I was right here when you and Steve...
00:39:47He came tearing out of that room like he was chasing somebody.
00:39:51I heard you yell at him, Ed.
00:39:52Stay away from that name.
00:39:53I heard it.
00:39:56Look, Ed.
00:39:56He's married.
00:39:57He works in the oil fields.
00:39:59He could have posed for that sketch.
00:40:02Yeah, and his father-in-law tries to run his life.
00:40:03Don't forget that.
00:40:04His father-in-law is an honest cop who once said he'd walk out the day he found himself
00:40:09trying to protect a guilty man.
00:40:11It wasn't him, Joe.
00:40:14I know it wasn't.
00:40:17He was working that night.
00:40:19You're sure of that, Ed?
00:40:20Yes, I'm sure of it.
00:40:22I don't cover for murderers.
00:40:25Okay.
00:40:26Okay.
00:40:26One suspect.
00:40:28That's all, just one suspect, and you think you've got it made.
00:40:30Now, this town is full of people who might have killed her.
00:40:34Like who?
00:40:37I can't do it.
00:40:38You must.
00:40:38You've got to.
00:40:39I know Joe Marcus.
00:40:39He's going to pull you in.
00:40:40It's crazy.
00:40:41You want me to pick you up?
00:40:42You want Tina to find out about you and that day?
00:40:43Somebody tell Louise.
00:40:44Not me.
00:40:45Let him run.
00:40:45Not me.
00:40:46No, I know.
00:40:47Take Tina with you.
00:40:48I'll talk to her.
00:40:49She'll...
00:40:49No!
00:40:50She won't be able to take it, I tell you.
00:40:51It'll destroy you.
00:40:52Help her.
00:40:53Help me.
00:40:53That's what I'm trying to do.
00:40:55Not this way, not by running.
00:40:56How do you think I latched onto Louise in the first place?
00:40:58I couldn't lick a problem, so I ran.
00:40:59How can I expect Tina to draw before I won't?
00:41:01But it's the only chance you've got.
00:41:03You want to help me?
00:41:04Really help me.
00:41:05Help me get Joe Marcus off my back.
00:41:06There's only one way.
00:41:08I didn't kill Louise.
00:41:10Find the man who did.
00:41:15And you won't leave.
00:41:17No.
00:41:19Winos, hopheads, bums.
00:41:21I mean, a hundred times I've talked to the landlord about it.
00:41:23Someday I'll break a leg just stepping over him.
00:41:25The man you saw hanging around this door that night.
00:41:28Could he have been a wino?
00:41:30Maybe.
00:41:30Why not?
00:41:31Could he have been about, oh, 65, 70 years old?
00:41:35Oh, did you find somebody, Sergeant?
00:41:37Could he have been that old?
00:41:40I suppose.
00:41:42Yeah.
00:41:43Yeah, sure he could.
00:41:46No, thanks.
00:41:46Thanks.
00:41:53Hello, Willard.
00:42:10I'm Sergeant Stagg.
00:42:12Yes.
00:42:14Yeah.
00:42:15Take a look at that.
00:42:18Take it out of the bank.
00:42:19Great.
00:42:22That's it.
00:42:23You ever see that before?
00:42:25Turn it all around.
00:42:26Get a good look at it.
00:42:28That's it.
00:42:34Hey, did you ever drink that kind of wine?
00:42:38Yeah.
00:42:40It was cheap enough.
00:42:43Hey.
00:42:45Let's put it back now, huh?
00:42:47Put it back.
00:42:48How old are you, Pop?
00:42:54I don't know.
00:42:5765, 67.
00:42:59I don't remember.
00:43:01Good old.
00:43:03You have any relatives?
00:43:04Friends?
00:43:06No, no, no.
00:43:07No relatives.
00:43:07Friends.
00:43:08You have friends.
00:43:09You have little Len Baggett.
00:43:13He's my best friend.
00:43:14No.
00:43:15No, he's dead, Pop.
00:43:16He's the man you killed.
00:43:20Oh, yeah.
00:43:22Oh, my God.
00:43:23I forgot.
00:43:27If you don't learn me, had I had a fight, I...
00:43:31I hit him with something.
00:43:36Piece of lead pipe.
00:43:37Yeah.
00:43:40Piece of lead pipe.
00:43:44What'd you hit the girl with, Pop?
00:43:51Girl, I...
00:43:52I don't remember no girl.
00:43:56Come on, now.
00:43:57You've already admitted the one murder.
00:43:59Why not admit the other one?
00:43:59Why not get that girl off your conscience, too?
00:44:02You're going to get the gas chamber, anyway.
00:44:05They can only gas you once, right, Pop?
00:44:07I'm honest.
00:44:08I don't remember no girl.
00:44:13The night before you turned yourself in, where were you?
00:44:16I don't know.
00:44:18I don't know.
00:44:20I don't remember.
00:44:21Why not?
00:44:21Why don't you remember?
00:44:25I told him.
00:44:27I told him already.
00:44:28I was drunk.
00:44:31You were drunk, all right.
00:44:33I'm not too drunk to remember what you did.
00:44:34Now, what did you do?
00:44:36You didn't tell him everything, did you?
00:44:39I thought I did.
00:44:42Oh?
00:44:46You tell him that you forced your way in a...
00:44:48Louise Campbell's apartment.
00:44:50You tell him that?
00:44:54Hmm?
00:44:54You tell him how you tried to take her money?
00:44:56Did you tell him how you knocked her down and killed her?
00:44:59I didn't.
00:45:00I didn't.
00:45:01Come on, now.
00:45:02Pop, you were so plastered, you don't know what you did.
00:45:07William Street.
00:45:08You know William Street, don't you?
00:45:12Yeah.
00:45:13All right, that's better.
00:45:15726 William Street.
00:45:17Ground floor apartment.
00:45:23No, I...
00:45:25I told him that I was in the right.
00:45:27I'm sure I wasn't there.
00:45:33How come we better witness who saw you there, huh?
00:45:36How come I found this bottle in the hallway with your fingerprints all over it?
00:45:41Pop.
00:45:42Pop, I'm your friend.
00:45:44Huh?
00:45:45I want to help you.
00:45:46I want to help you remember, Pop.
00:45:47Now, come on.
00:45:51Pop.
00:45:52Why would I kill her?
00:45:56For money.
00:45:57You needed money to buy wine.
00:46:00I thought I...
00:46:01I wouldn't have killed her.
00:46:04Killed your friend, didn't you?
00:46:06Best friend.
00:46:06Only friend.
00:46:08Why would you kill her?
00:46:10You killed her, Pop.
00:46:10I don't know how to remember.
00:46:14I don't know.
00:46:16Pop, you're going to remember if I have to stay all night.
00:46:18Oh, come on.
00:46:19I'm going to walk.
00:46:20I'm going to walk.
00:46:21No, Pop.
00:46:21No.
00:46:22I'm going to help you, Pop.
00:46:23I'm going to help you remember.
00:46:25Now, you were in the hallway, right?
00:46:27I...
00:46:28Yeah, I guess I was.
00:46:32Yes, yes, you were.
00:46:32You were in the hallway.
00:46:33And it was 10.45 a night.
00:46:35Remember that now.
00:46:3610.45.
00:46:37You knocked on the door.
00:46:38And when she opened it...
00:46:39When she opened it, you pushed your way in.
00:46:43Please, Sergeant.
00:46:44You pushed your way in.
00:46:45And you asked her for some money.
00:46:46And when she didn't give it to you, you knocked her...
00:46:48You knocked her down.
00:46:50And you killed her.
00:46:52No, I...
00:46:53I didn't.
00:46:54You killed her just like you killed your friend.
00:46:56I don't remember.
00:46:57And you killed her, Pop.
00:46:58And you know it.
00:47:00Then you...
00:47:00Then you dragged her body over to the couch.
00:47:02And you left her there.
00:47:05I wouldn't know.
00:47:06I wouldn't have done it if I wouldn't jump.
00:47:15It's all right, Pop.
00:47:16It's all right now.
00:47:18It's all right.
00:47:19All right.
00:47:22You don't have to remember everything now.
00:47:26Just remember that you killed her.
00:47:30I will jump.
00:47:33You only die once.
00:47:36You understand that?
00:47:38You only die once.
00:47:47All right, Lillard.
00:47:48How did you get into the apartment?
00:47:53The lieutenant asked you a question?
00:47:54I...
00:47:55I was drunk.
00:48:02How did you get into the apartment?
00:48:12I...
00:48:13She...
00:48:13She let me in, I guess.
00:48:15You guess?
00:48:17Aren't you sure?
00:48:18Told Sergeant Stagg that she opened the door and you pushed you away in.
00:48:21Is that what happened?
00:48:24Sorry, I...
00:48:25I was drunk.
00:48:26Is that what happened, Pop?
00:48:30Yes.
00:48:32What time was that?
00:48:36What?
00:48:37Your time.
00:48:38Nine-thirty, ten, ten-thirty, eleven?
00:48:41What time were you there?
00:48:46I...
00:48:46I don't know.
00:48:48I...
00:48:49Maybe...
00:48:50Maybe ten o'clock.
00:48:57Ten o'clock?
00:48:58You're answering the questions, Lillard.
00:49:08Just...
00:49:08Ten o'clock.
00:49:10All right.
00:49:10Ten o'clock.
00:49:12Why don't you tell us the rest of the story now?
00:49:16The...
00:49:16The rest of the story?
00:49:19Yeah, the rest of the story.
00:49:20You know you're going to feel better if you get it off your mind.
00:49:23Did you feel better when you told us about killing your friend?
00:49:25The rest of the story now is about killing your friend.
00:49:32Money.
00:49:35I must have asked her for money.
00:49:39I don't remember.
00:49:42I don't remember.
00:49:45But you do know that you were there at ten o'clock.
00:49:49Ten.
00:49:53Ten.
00:49:53I guess maybe I hear the question.
00:50:01Oh, please.
00:50:03Please, I don't remember.
00:50:08Be right back.
00:50:12All right, Lillard.
00:50:14Come on.
00:50:15Sit up.
00:50:17Sit up.
00:50:18I want you to start again.
00:50:20Right at the beginning, huh?
00:50:22What's the trouble, Ed?
00:50:31You bleeding for him?
00:50:33You?
00:50:35He's a murderer, isn't he?
00:50:38You think he did?
00:50:40You're asking me?
00:50:42You're the one who found the bottle with his prints on it.
00:50:44You're the one who broke him down.
00:50:46You did a good job on him, Ed.
00:50:50Yeah.
00:50:52Yeah, it's great what you can do with 25 years of experience.
00:51:00Look, Ed.
00:51:02You've been pushing pretty hard.
00:51:04Why don't you take a couple of days sickly?
00:51:06I'm okay.
00:51:07I'm okay.
00:51:07Go ahead.
00:51:09I'll swear to you, Lieutenant.
00:51:09Hey, Steve.
00:51:26Steve, old baby.
00:51:27Have you seen this guy, this killer?
00:51:29Huh?
00:51:30It's just like enough to be your twin brother.
00:51:33Why don't you come here?
00:51:34Oh, now, come on, killer.
00:51:35I can't help it if you look like a mystery man, won't you?
00:51:42Well, you know, killer, if you'd gone bowling with us that night,
00:51:45you'd have a perfect alibi.
00:51:47Of course, you know, you've got relatives on the force.
00:51:50Now, don't worry.
00:51:51They'll take care of you.
00:51:57Come on, sir.
00:51:58Come on.
00:52:05Come on, sir.
00:52:35Come on, sir.
00:53:05Come on, sir.
00:53:35I cut you off the hook.
00:53:50Come on, sir.
00:53:51Come on, sir.
00:53:52Come on.
00:53:53Come on, sir.
00:53:56The End
00:54:26You look just like your mother there for a moment
00:54:33Has anything happened?
00:54:41No
00:54:41No, I'm
00:54:44I was just tired
00:54:47That's right
00:54:49Just tired
00:54:51Is it Steve?
00:54:56I almost killed my father once, did I ever tell you that?
00:55:03He was drunk
00:55:04He was beating up my mother
00:55:06I was only 15
00:55:08Ran away from home right after that
00:55:13Didn't come back for three years
00:55:16She was dead
00:55:20I never saw him again either
00:55:25That's terrible
00:55:26It's funny
00:55:30Haven't thought about him for years
00:55:33Daddy, you're the best man that ever lived
00:55:40Baby
00:55:42Promise me
00:55:45Promise me that you'll never stop loving me
00:55:48Daddy, don't
00:55:50Promise me
00:55:50Look, everything I've done
00:55:52It's been for you, everything
00:55:53Promise me now
00:55:55You always love me, always
00:55:56Of course I will
00:55:59Oh, baby
00:56:01Thank you
00:56:02Daddy, please tell me
00:56:07Has anything happened to Steve?
00:56:14No, no, Steve
00:56:15Steve is fine
00:56:17He's fine
00:56:19There was a hammer
00:56:25In the kitchen
00:56:29I picked it up
00:56:32And I hit him
00:56:35Hit him, I hit him
00:56:37Hit him till he fell
00:56:39And my mother screamed at me
00:56:43To get out of there
00:56:45I was trying to help her
00:56:51And she told me to
00:56:55Get out
00:56:56Yes, I am tired
00:57:11I think I'll
00:57:12I think I'll lie down for a while
00:57:26And she told me
00:57:43I don't
00:57:45I don't
00:57:46I don't
00:57:48I
00:57:48I don
00:57:48I don
00:57:51I
00:57:52I don
00:57:53I
00:57:53I
00:57:55Oh, Steve, are you crazy?
00:58:11Sure, Chrissy.
00:58:12Oh, wake up!
00:58:15Steve, what happened to your face?
00:58:17I ran into a window.
00:58:18Oh, Steve, come on.
00:58:19Meet there again.
00:58:21That's for Steve, huh?
00:58:22That's for your father, who is absolutely the greatest, absolutely.
00:58:26Oh, are you drunk?
00:58:28Have you been in a fight?
00:58:29Oh, will you see the other guy?
00:58:30Go on, change your clothes.
00:58:31We're going out.
00:58:32Come on.
00:58:32You've got to be drunk.
00:58:33No, it's a celebration for freedom.
00:58:36Freedom.
00:58:37Celebration complete with hot dog, popcorn, cotton candy that works.
00:58:40Go on, change your clothes.
00:58:52Nothing.
00:59:08No.
00:59:08Have you added a little popcorn?
00:59:11A little cotton candy.
00:59:13See that guy back there?
00:59:15Really weak.
00:59:18Hey, ladies, you want some popcorn?
00:59:20No, I burst.
00:59:20Chicken, get two.
00:59:23Hey, mister.
00:59:25Take good care of him.
00:59:38Two big ones.
00:59:39Lots of butter.
00:59:40Thanks.
00:59:40Thanks.
00:59:40Thanks.
00:59:50You see this?
01:00:19Did you see it?
01:00:21Sergeant, it says that old man was in Louise's apartment at 10 o'clock.
01:00:25That's a mistake, isn't it?
01:00:28You're off the hook, so forget about it.
01:00:30Did he say that at 10 o'clock?
01:00:31He said that he killed her.
01:00:33That he was drunk.
01:00:33That he forced his way into her apartment.
01:00:35And that he killed her at 10 o'clock.
01:00:36Did he say that at 10 o'clock?
01:00:37What difference is there?
01:00:38You got your markers off your back now.
01:00:41So do what I said.
01:00:42Forget about it.
01:00:43It's wrong, Sergeant.
01:00:44He couldn't have been there at 10 o'clock, Sergeant.
01:00:48I lied to you, Sergeant.
01:00:49I wasn't working that night.
01:00:50I was with Louise.
01:00:51We had dinner.
01:00:52I went to her apartment.
01:00:53I stayed there until 10.30.
01:00:5510.30, Sergeant.
01:00:56I was scared.
01:00:57If I wasn't, I wouldn't have lied.
01:00:58No, you didn't lie to me.
01:00:59You didn't see her that night.
01:01:01You were working that night.
01:01:02He couldn't have been there at 10 o'clock.
01:01:04I know.
01:01:04You know.
01:01:05I'll tell you what you know.
01:01:06You were married to my daughter.
01:01:07You messed her around with that trap.
01:01:08She got killed.
01:01:09That's what you know.
01:01:10But it's true, Sergeant.
01:01:11I was there.
01:01:11You better call headquarters and tell them.
01:01:13I don't have to tell them anything.
01:01:14Neither do you.
01:01:14Tell them myself.
01:01:15No.
01:01:17What about Tina?
01:01:18Tina.
01:01:18That old man is sitting in a cell because of a story that isn't true.
01:01:21And you're worried about Tina.
01:01:22Forget about Tina.
01:01:23What about you?
01:01:23What about yourself?
01:01:24They'll say you killed her.
01:01:25So they'll say I killed her.
01:01:26I didn't.
01:01:27And neither did that old man.
01:01:28Please.
01:01:29You don't realize what you're doing.
01:01:30One of us doesn't.
01:01:31I'm going to call her.
01:01:31No.
01:01:32You won't have to.
01:01:34Go out in the car.
01:01:35I'll drive her there myself.
01:02:05Where'd you find him?
01:02:24Blophouse.
01:02:25He said he was with the old man that night.
01:02:28Passed out about nine o'clock.
01:02:30Didn't wake up till three in the morning.
01:02:31Tenth Street.
01:02:34A good 12 blocks from the girl's apartment.
01:02:37You buy it?
01:02:40Yeah.
01:02:41I buy it.
01:02:43Okay.
01:02:44What about the bottle with his prints on it?
01:02:58They could have been there for a week.
01:03:01Or it could have been planted.
01:03:04We've got a confession, Joe.
01:03:05No, no.
01:03:08Not us.
01:03:09We didn't get that confession.
01:03:12We didn't get anything.
01:03:14It's hard to put us over there.
01:03:16I know.
01:03:17We'll get there.
01:03:21I want to talk.
01:03:22Said it all.
01:03:23Said nothing.
01:03:26Nothing.
01:03:27Well, of course, we have trouble.
01:03:36Oh, he stays out late every night and runs around with wild women and beats me every time he comes home.
01:03:44Tina, where's your father?
01:03:47Maybe with Steve.
01:03:49Drunk.
01:03:50Rolling in the gutter.
01:03:51Happens every night of the week.
01:03:55Is your father with him?
01:03:59He...
01:04:00Hey, isn't he cute?
01:04:04We want him at a shooting gallery.
01:04:06Tina, where are they?
01:04:08I don't know.
01:04:09I don't know where anybody is.
01:04:13Well, where should I put you?
01:04:18Tina,
01:04:18did you ever hear of a girl named Louise Campbell?
01:04:25Should I?
01:04:27She was murdered.
01:04:28It's been in the papers for days.
01:04:31Oh.
01:04:34Oh.
01:04:36I never read the papers.
01:04:37Your father's been working on the case.
01:04:40Here.
01:04:40Now, then, now.
01:04:41This is where you belong.
01:04:43Tina, he's in trouble.
01:04:44Serious trouble.
01:04:46I don't believe that.
01:04:47He's a good cop.
01:04:48Too good to louse up an investigation
01:04:50by handling a piece of evidence.
01:04:52Tina, I bought it,
01:04:53but I can't buy it now.
01:04:55What evidence?
01:04:57What are you talking about?
01:04:58He knew about Steve.
01:05:00That woman was running around
01:05:01with a married man.
01:05:03It was Steve.
01:05:05That's not true.
01:05:07Tina, we have his description.
01:05:09We have his name.
01:05:10Steve had been seeing her for weeks.
01:05:13That's a lie.
01:05:14That's a dirty, rotten, filthy lie.
01:05:18I'm sorry, Tina.
01:05:19Oh, Joe.
01:05:20Get out of here.
01:05:22Honey, I have to find him.
01:05:23Get out of here!
01:05:24Tina, I have to find him.
01:05:25No.
01:05:26Oh.
01:05:28No.
01:05:30Do you know where he is?
01:05:32Joe, it was a game.
01:05:41When I was little,
01:05:44after my mother left,
01:05:46I used to have nightmares.
01:05:47And my daddy would come into the room
01:05:52and he would tell me not to worry
01:05:55because he would put up a wall
01:05:58and would keep all the bad things out.
01:06:04And it did.
01:06:06It really did.
01:06:09Joe,
01:06:10where did the wall go?
01:06:16Why did it go away?
01:06:21Tina,
01:06:22why is Steve seeing that girl?
01:06:27I just,
01:06:28I just wanted us to be happy.
01:06:31I,
01:06:31I thought if I didn't say anything to him,
01:06:36the wall would still be there.
01:06:38and
01:06:39we'd be safe inside.
01:06:44I thought she was killed.
01:06:57Give me police headquarters.
01:07:00It wasn't Steve.
01:07:01Joe,
01:07:02it couldn't have been Steve.
01:07:04I never said it was.
01:07:07Hey, hello.
01:07:08Sergeant Marcus.
01:07:09I want to put out an APB
01:07:12on Ed Stagg.
01:07:14That's right.
01:07:16Sergeant Ed Stagg.
01:07:42Bye.
01:07:43What are we stopping here for?
01:07:54Something I want to show you.
01:07:58Come on.
01:08:13That's where you used to meet her, isn't it?
01:08:33What's the point, Sergeant?
01:08:34She's dead.
01:08:40You ever almost drowned?
01:08:43You go under, try to scream, you can't.
01:08:51And there's nobody there to help you.
01:08:53Nobody.
01:08:55You're on your own.
01:08:57Nobody there to help you.
01:08:59Nobody but yourself.
01:09:00I'm going back to the car.
01:09:01Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:09:02Wait, not yet.
01:09:03It's over, Sergeant.
01:09:04There's nothing here.
01:09:05I'm here.
01:09:05I'm here and I'm drowning.
01:09:07Oh, can't you get it through your head?
01:09:08He's a bum, a drunk.
01:09:10He's got no friends, no relatives, nothing.
01:09:12He doesn't mean anything.
01:09:13Maybe he didn't kill her.
01:09:14What difference does it make?
01:09:16He killed somebody, didn't he?
01:09:17And he's going to have to die, isn't he?
01:09:18If it gets you off the hook, what difference does it make?
01:09:20What difference does it make?
01:09:22You lousy hypocrite.
01:09:23If a man doesn't know the difference between right and wrong, he might as well be living in a tree.
01:09:27Isn't that what you said, Sergeant?
01:09:29Go ahead.
01:09:30Find that tree.
01:09:30Make me another speech.
01:09:31Go ahead, Sergeant.
01:09:32I'm waiting.
01:09:33Go ahead.
01:09:33You fuck, you immoral bunk.
01:09:36Who do you think started this whole mess anyway?
01:09:39Who?
01:09:40I don't know, Sergeant, but you better believe it's over.
01:09:42They book me or they don't book me.
01:09:43I'm leveling with Tina and I'm wrapping it up.
01:09:45I'm telling her the whole bit.
01:09:46No.
01:09:46She's coming out of that box you kept her in if I have to drag her out.
01:09:49Maybe the air out stinks, but she better learn to live in it.
01:09:51So I'm starting right now.
01:09:52No.
01:09:52Tina, please.
01:09:54Thoreau.
01:09:54We're starting.
01:09:55Thoreau.
01:09:55It's not just Tina.
01:09:56It's not just her.
01:09:57It's you.
01:09:58It's me.
01:09:59You walk into headquarters and we're all connected.
01:10:01All of us.
01:10:01I didn't do anything, Sergeant.
01:10:03Nothing.
01:10:04You better believe me.
01:10:04But I did.
01:10:06I killed him.
01:10:10God help me.
01:10:11I killed him.
01:10:13You.
01:10:15Yes.
01:10:16Oh, God help me.
01:10:18I killed him.
01:10:21It was you.
01:10:25All this time.
01:10:27All those speeches.
01:10:29For me.
01:10:30Tina.
01:10:33I just pushed her.
01:10:36I just pushed her and she fell and she hit her head.
01:10:37You killed her.
01:10:39And it was just an accident.
01:10:40And you'd sell the old man for it.
01:10:43No.
01:10:43I.
01:10:44I was for Tina.
01:10:45I was trying to protect Tina.
01:10:46Calm off it, Sergeant.
01:10:48Calm way down.
01:10:48You weren't protecting anybody but yourself.
01:10:50No.
01:10:50No.
01:10:50No.
01:10:51That's not true.
01:10:51Who are you coming for now?
01:10:53Me?
01:10:54Tina?
01:10:54The old man?
01:10:55Or is it you?
01:10:56Stop it.
01:10:57Stop it.
01:10:57I've listened to you all year.
01:10:58And there's nothing inside those speeches.
01:11:00Nothing.
01:11:00Well, I'm out of a speech.
01:11:01Please.
01:11:01Please.
01:11:02Please, Steve.
01:11:03No.
01:11:04Don't.
01:11:04Don't.
01:11:04Stop it.
01:11:10No.
01:11:10Stop it.
01:11:11No.
01:11:23え!
01:11:24Look out!
01:11:25Fuck!
01:11:26Ah!
01:11:26Oh.
01:11:26Come on!
01:11:27I can't help it.
01:11:38I'm sorry, but I can't help it.
01:11:42It was an accident!
01:11:45Like this one, Sergeant?
01:11:51Oh, why didn't you go like I told you?
01:11:54Why didn't you go, Athena?
01:11:57Oh, ever since I killed her, ever since I killed her, it's been like, like something, something inside my gut, eating, eating at me, like, like it was nothing but life.
01:12:15Oh, oh, Athena.
01:12:24Don't.
01:12:24Don't, don't, don't, Tina, Tina.
01:12:27Come on.
01:12:32Let's go.
01:12:33Let's go.
01:12:33Let's go.
01:12:35Don't, don't, don't, don't.
01:12:41Don't, don't, don't, don't.
01:13:17Sorry, Ed.
01:13:47Sorry, Ed.
