00:01:41,977 --> 00:01:43,403
(HONKS)
3
00:01:56,366 --> 00:01:58,509
JOE: Where's Bailey?
4
00:02:02,539 --> 00:02:04,261
Deaf and dumb, eh?
5
00:02:16,303 --> 00:02:18,776
Can you read lips?
6
00:02:19,181 --> 00:02:21,904
Where is Bailey?
7
00:02:23,518 --> 00:02:25,991
Coming back today?
8
00:02:27,272 --> 00:02:29,415
Come on.
9
00:02:57,010 --> 00:03:00,012
10
00:03:00,013 --> 00:03:01,764
11
00:03:01,765 --> 00:03:03,557
I keep thinking of you as a blond.
12
00:03:03,558 --> 00:03:06,686
For all the thinking you do about
me, I could be bald-headed.
13
00:03:06,687 --> 00:03:09,480
Ham on rye. Did you miss me, honey?
14
00:03:09,481 --> 00:03:12,525
If I didn't, I can't think
of anybody else who did.
15
00:03:12,526 --> 00:03:16,028
16
00:03:16,029 --> 00:03:18,072
She's your girl, and
he ain't my man.
17
00:03:18,073 --> 00:03:21,033
So it's no skin off my nose.
I just see what I see.
18
00:03:21,034 --> 00:03:22,952
You sure you don't
see what you hear?
19
00:03:22,953 --> 00:03:26,330
Nothing can happen in this town
that I don't hear about it.
20
00:03:26,331 --> 00:03:30,000
I'm just saying what I see. Every
day they go fishing together.
21
00:03:30,001 --> 00:03:31,711
Look, the sandwich.
22
00:03:31,712 --> 00:03:36,424
Two things I can smell inside 100 feet:
burning hamburger and a romance.
23
00:03:36,425 --> 00:03:38,634
You got a customer.
24
00:03:38,635 --> 00:03:40,177
25
00:03:40,178 --> 00:03:43,607
26
00:03:44,099 --> 00:03:46,225
27
00:03:46,226 --> 00:03:48,102
28
00:03:48,103 --> 00:03:50,730
First she's got you, now
she's got you and Bailey.
29
00:03:50,731 --> 00:03:53,691
And the only thing I
seem to get is older.
30
00:03:53,692 --> 00:03:56,461
Thanks a lot, Marny.
I'll see you later.
31
00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:02,700
Hmm. I guess I must
have said something.
32
00:04:02,701 --> 00:04:04,253
You talked enough.
33
00:04:04,661 --> 00:04:07,747
Everything people ought to know
they just don't want to hear.
34
00:04:07,748 --> 00:04:09,707
That's the trouble with the world.
35
00:04:09,708 --> 00:04:12,877
Either that or you're on the
wrong side of the counter.
36
00:04:12,878 --> 00:04:16,338
37
00:04:16,339 --> 00:04:19,759
That, uh, Bailey who burns you
up, he run the gas station?
38
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,053
39
00:04:23,054 --> 00:04:26,348
If he keeps mooning around
Jim's girl, nobody'll know him...
40
00:04:26,349 --> 00:04:28,809
and that'd be too bad.
41
00:04:28,810 --> 00:04:32,438
You, uh, see much of this Bailey?
42
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:35,441
Yeah, every day from here.
43
00:04:35,442 --> 00:04:37,526
I often wondered what
happened to him...
44
00:04:37,527 --> 00:04:42,333
then one day I'm breezing through here,
and there's his name up on a sign.
45
00:04:42,532 --> 00:04:47,338
46
00:05:03,178 --> 00:05:08,405
47
00:05:09,226 --> 00:05:12,061
They say the day you die,
your name is written on a cloud.
48
00:05:12,062 --> 00:05:14,230
49
00:05:14,231 --> 00:05:16,440
Never heard of them.
50
00:05:16,441 --> 00:05:19,693
Nothing in that one but rain.
Think we ought to go home?
51
00:05:19,694 --> 00:05:21,111
Yes.
52
00:05:21,112 --> 00:05:23,961
53
00:05:25,992 --> 00:05:30,037
Every time I look at the sky, I think
of all the places I've never been.
54
00:05:30,038 --> 00:05:33,808
Yes, and every time you look
up, they're all the same.
55
00:05:34,334 --> 00:05:37,837
56
00:05:37,838 --> 00:05:41,131
57
00:05:41,132 --> 00:05:45,094
58
00:05:45,095 --> 00:05:47,137
I'd like to build a
house right there...
59
00:05:47,138 --> 00:05:50,738
marry you, live in it and
never go anywhere else.
60
00:05:51,184 --> 00:05:53,987
I wish you would.
61
00:06:00,485 --> 00:06:04,196
You were never married
before, were you?
62
00:06:04,197 --> 00:06:06,490
Not that I can remember.
63
00:06:06,491 --> 00:06:08,409
That's good.
64
00:06:08,410 --> 00:06:11,537
You'd be amazed the way
people talk about you.
65
00:06:11,538 --> 00:06:15,138
The mysterious Jeff Bailey.
66
00:06:15,542 --> 00:06:19,587
My mother tells me that I've only
known you for such a short time.
67
00:06:19,588 --> 00:06:22,266
And where'd you come from?
And what did you do?
68
00:06:24,342 --> 00:06:27,111
My father was...
69
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:40,149
70
00:06:40,150 --> 00:06:42,202
Maybe not.
71
00:06:45,822 --> 00:06:48,124
Here.
72
00:06:51,745 --> 00:06:55,140
You sure are a secret man.
73
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,043
Thanks.
74
00:06:59,044 --> 00:07:01,962
Oh, a man just wants to see me.
75
00:07:01,963 --> 00:07:03,685
Oh.

78
00:07:27,614 --> 00:07:30,950
Everyone sure missed you, Jeff,
but not as much as I have.
79
00:07:30,951 --> 00:07:33,118
80
00:07:33,119 --> 00:07:36,497
shake his head, and wish
I had brains like you.
81
00:07:36,498 --> 00:07:40,501

This far?

00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:54,056
87
00:07:54,057 --> 00:07:56,610
All right, come on inside.
88
00:08:01,898 --> 00:08:05,776
89
00:08:05,777 --> 00:08:08,487
Heh. I guess that's
because it's respectable.
90
00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:11,532
That hash slinger across the
street says you are too.
91

but my old chum from the old times.
93
00:08:20,458 --> 00:08:22,793
Of course, there's a
different name on the sign.
94
00:08:22,794 --> 00:08:25,546
95
00:08:25,547 --> 00:08:28,674
Okay, then I'm glad to
see an old pal too.
96

So I take you to dinner, buy you
drinks, it gets late chewing the fat...
97
00:08:32,637 --> 00:08:35,055
you hop in your car and
you're gone. Right?

for that guy, Jeff.

No one ever thought
more of you than Whit.
104
00:08:50,739 --> 00:08:52,197
Or more about me.
105
00:08:52,198 --> 00:08:55,784
Well, that could be too.

Look, Whit never steered you
into anything bad, did he?
109
00:09:05,587 --> 00:09:09,339
Why, he never even squawked when you
blew the best thing he ever gave you.

111
00:09:13,511 --> 00:09:15,596
Well, you put it that
way, what can I do?
112
00:09:15,597 --> 00:09:18,525
You know of any other
way to put it?
113

Big house on a hill. You won't miss it.

letting her out like this?

00:09:57,555 --> 00:10:02,656
Are you gonna stand for it, with a
man who won't even come to the door?
119

Don't worry about them.

You want to ride with
me up to Lake Tahoe?

128
00:10:31,965 --> 00:10:33,549
I want to tell you something.
129
00:10:33,550 --> 00:10:35,676
All right, Jeff.
130
00:10:35,677 --> 00:10:38,637
You told me once I'd have
to tell you sometime.
131
00:10:38,638 --> 00:10:41,691
Well, this is it.
132
00:10:56,865 --> 00:11:01,785
Now, the first thing I wanna get off my
chest: My name isn't Bailey, it's Markham.
133
00:11:01,786 --> 00:11:06,415
134
00:11:06,416 --> 00:11:10,043
I meant to, but I kept
putting it off...
135
00:11:10,044 --> 00:11:12,838
because I didn't
like any part of it.
136
00:11:12,839 --> 00:11:16,133
137
00:11:16,134 --> 00:11:18,552
It doesn't matter.
138
00:11:18,553 --> 00:11:22,181
Well, our friend Markham
lived in New York.
139
00:11:22,182 --> 00:11:26,894
He worked with a sort of stupid,
oily gent by the name of Jack Fisher.
140
00:11:26,895 --> 00:11:30,314
We called ourselves detectives.
141
00:11:30,315 --> 00:11:33,942
That was about three
years ago, maybe more.
142
00:11:33,943 --> 00:11:38,655
Wintertime. One of the coldest
days I remember in the town.
143
00:11:38,656 --> 00:11:40,991
And we got a call to
come and see a big op.
144
00:11:40,992 --> 00:11:44,786
145
00:11:44,787 --> 00:11:48,707
He didn't come to see us because he
was too high-powered a character.
146
00:11:48,708 --> 00:11:53,170
Also, because some dame had taken
four shots at him with his own .38.
147
00:11:53,171 --> 00:11:55,769
Made one of them good.
148
00:11:59,594 --> 00:12:03,180
He was taking it in stride, but he
had a friend who was a ball of fire.
149
00:12:03,181 --> 00:12:07,267
Newspaper guys, wise guys, who
do they think they're kidding?
150
00:12:07,268 --> 00:12:09,686
So he shot himself
cleaning a cap pistol.
151
00:12:09,687 --> 00:12:13,106
So I shot the ace of spades out
of a sleeve during a gin game.
152
00:12:13,107 --> 00:12:15,108
A guy can't even get
shot by a dame...

starting to buzz like a...

You wait for me to talk. I like that.

You know, I once bet $40,000 on a horse
that ran dead last, so I bought the horse.
169
00:13:09,789 --> 00:13:11,707
Yeah, that's what I mean.
170
00:13:11,708 --> 00:13:16,295
Oh, you're wrong. I put that
horse in a nice green pasture...
171
00:13:16,296 --> 00:13:19,089
so he'd never get his foot
caught in a mutuel machine.

You should go out and
visit it sometime.

No, I just want her back. When you
see her, you'll understand better.
174
00:13:28,683 --> 00:13:31,281
Maybe she's just an impulsive girl.

the first thing you said.

a few honest ones, and you're both.

What happens to her?
182
00:14:04,010 --> 00:14:05,778
I won't touch her.

00:26:42,810 --> 00:26:47,021
And the rain hammering like that on the

not afraid of him.

It was just that it went
north instead of south.

And I was on it too.

00:33:42,395 --> 00:33:45,448
I opened an office
in San Francisco.

We found a little movie
house in North Beach.
468
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,629
We were on the run. We went to places
we never would've seen in our lives.
469
00:34:08,630 --> 00:34:11,507
And after a while, we grew a
little more sure of ourselves.
470
00:34:11,508 --> 00:34:16,095
We drifted back to more familiar
places, ballparks and the racetracks.
471
00:34:16,096 --> 00:34:21,402
Why not? After all, there wasn't one chance
in a million we'd bump into our past.
472
00:34:23,853 --> 00:34:25,826
One chance in a million.
473
00:34:26,565 --> 00:34:30,693
One chance in a million was all that chump
ever had in his life, and he made it good.
474
00:34:30,694 --> 00:34:34,363
He stood there with our lives in his
pocket, because I knew if he saw her...
475
00:34:34,364 --> 00:34:37,417
he'd sell us both for $1.95.
476
00:34:37,492 --> 00:34:39,965
So we had to separate.
477
00:34:41,371 --> 00:34:45,082
I went alone to L.A., and I made
it easy for him to follow me.

He was a good gumshoe. It was the
one thing he could really do.

So I went everywhere like a
guy enjoying the country.

or phone or telegraph.

I just waited and moved.
482
00:34:56,928 --> 00:35:00,347
When it seemed right, I blew out
of town to go and meet her.
483
00:35:00,348 --> 00:35:04,824
I wasn't bad at the game myself. I was sure
I had shaken him loose, and I felt good.

00:35:11,318 --> 00:35:14,997
Fisher was back there somewhere,
and I could see her again.

off the highway on Pyramid Creek.

It was dark when I
was getting there.

the road in the headlights.

somewhere, like in the first times.
493
00:35:52,233 --> 00:35:54,943
There was still that something
about her that got me.
494
00:35:54,944 --> 00:35:57,417
A kind of magic or whatever it was.
495
00:35:57,656 --> 00:36:01,756
Well, I held her, and we could laugh
because we were together again.
496
00:36:01,785 --> 00:36:05,134
We'd played it smart
and forgotten nothing.

off just like you did.

understand, they deserve each other.

All right, Fisher,
what's the pitch?
509
00:36:58,174 --> 00:37:00,884
You and I had a little deal, Jeff.
510
00:37:00,885 --> 00:37:04,304
Ten grand and expenses,
fifty-fifty.

memory. Whatever happened to it?

we are, he might slip you a sawbuck.

He isn't going to
tell Whit anything.

Sure not. You just come up with that
40 grand, and we're all pals again.

00:37:22,657 --> 00:37:26,493
518
00:37:26,494 --> 00:37:28,495
Of course Whit's broad-minded.

00:37:28,496 --> 00:37:30,914
He don't care about a few
slugs in the stomach...
520

or the 40 grand the
dame went off with...

or even Jeff pretending
he fell down on the job.

together, he might not like that.

He'd have been against
us, gone to Whit.

(CAR ENGINE STARTS)
538
00:39:36,708 --> 00:39:38,885
I buried him up there.
539
00:39:39,002 --> 00:39:41,628
I wasn't sorry for
him or sore at her.
540
00:39:41,629 --> 00:39:43,476
I wasn't anything.
541
00:39:44,716 --> 00:39:47,769
542
00:39:48,386 --> 00:39:50,529
Did you want to?
543
00:39:51,264 --> 00:39:53,111
No.
544
00:40:02,859 --> 00:40:04,985
JEFF: Well, I told you
it wasn't a nice story.
545
00:40:04,986 --> 00:40:07,630
And I said once that whatever
had happened was done.
546
00:40:07,697 --> 00:40:10,198
Yeah, but you should've
known about it long ago.
547
00:40:10,199 --> 00:40:12,784
It's all right. I understand.
548
00:40:12,785 --> 00:40:14,578
And it's all past.
549
00:40:14,579 --> 00:40:16,204
Maybe it isn't.
550
00:40:16,205 --> 00:40:18,582
551
00:40:18,583 --> 00:40:21,501
It's been a long time. I don't
know how much he knows.
552
00:40:21,502 --> 00:40:22,920
Don't go, Jeff.
553
00:40:22,921 --> 00:40:27,174
I've got to. I'm tired of running.
I gotta clean this up some way.
554
00:40:27,175 --> 00:40:29,176
Just one thing, Ann.
555
00:40:29,177 --> 00:40:30,761
Do you want me to come back?
556
00:40:30,762 --> 00:40:32,609
Of course.
557
00:40:38,853 --> 00:40:40,951
Put that in your pocket.
558
00:41:15,014 --> 00:41:17,157
JOE: Look who's here.
559
00:41:19,686 --> 00:41:22,062
Hello, Markham. Glad
to see you again.
560
00:41:22,063 --> 00:41:24,147
JEFF:
I always wondered if you missed me.
561
00:41:24,148 --> 00:41:26,733
Ah. Same guy. Time-proof,
weatherproof.
562
00:41:26,734 --> 00:41:29,128
563
00:41:34,283 --> 00:41:36,201
564
00:41:36,202 --> 00:41:38,620
Joe, tell the boy we have a guest.
565
00:41:38,621 --> 00:41:41,790
Say, I understand you're operating
a little gasoline station.
566
00:41:41,791 --> 00:41:44,543
567
00:41:44,544 --> 00:41:48,088
It's very simple. I sell gasoline.
I make a small profit.
568
00:41:48,089 --> 00:41:51,008
With that I buy groceries,
the grocer makes a profit.
569
00:41:51,009 --> 00:41:54,594
They call it earning a living.
You may have heard of it somewhere.
570
00:41:54,595 --> 00:41:57,889
I may have, but it wasn't from you.
571
00:41:57,890 --> 00:42:00,684
572
00:42:00,685 --> 00:42:04,354
Ten years ago, I hid them somewhere
and I haven't been able to find them.
573
00:42:04,355 --> 00:42:06,064
JOE: Where did you look?
574
00:42:06,065 --> 00:42:08,242
WHIT: In my pocketbook.
575
00:42:09,485 --> 00:42:10,861
Nice, isn't it?
576
00:42:10,862 --> 00:42:13,836
Yeah, it must have set
you back a few shells.
577
00:42:14,574 --> 00:42:17,075
Always worrying about my expenses.
578
00:42:17,076 --> 00:42:19,202
It's a nice view.
Am I here to admire it?
579
00:42:19,203 --> 00:42:21,096
Not exactly.
580
00:42:21,414 --> 00:42:23,165
I need your help.
581
00:42:23,166 --> 00:42:24,708
Like old times.
582
00:42:24,709 --> 00:42:27,137
I always liked you.
583
00:42:27,336 --> 00:42:31,006
You liked me because you could use me.
You could use me because I was smart.
584
00:42:31,007 --> 00:42:33,216
I'm not smart anymore.
I run a gas station.
585
00:42:33,217 --> 00:42:35,010
I like the view.
586
00:42:35,011 --> 00:42:36,887
Can you still listen?
587
00:42:36,888 --> 00:42:38,638
I can hear.
588
00:42:38,639 --> 00:42:40,599
Well, you told me
about your business.
589
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,603
Well, mine is a little more precarious,
and I earn considerably more.
590
00:42:44,604 --> 00:42:46,021
So I've heard.
591
00:42:46,022 --> 00:42:47,856
So has the government.
592
00:42:47,857 --> 00:42:50,942
Well, this may sound ridiculous,
but you could pay them.
593
00:42:50,943 --> 00:42:54,029
594
00:42:54,030 --> 00:42:58,617
So I collaborated with a certain
man who understands these things.
595
00:42:58,618 --> 00:43:00,994
He saved me quite a bit
of money, $1 million.
596
00:43:00,995 --> 00:43:05,624
I didn't particularly trust him, so
I paid him well, but he's unhappy.
597
00:43:05,625 --> 00:43:08,543
598
00:43:08,544 --> 00:43:12,422
Oh, I appreciate it. I always
remember what any man did for me.
599
00:43:12,423 --> 00:43:13,840
Or didn't.
600
00:43:13,841 --> 00:43:17,969
Perhaps. The point is that
now he wants 200,000.
601
00:43:17,970 --> 00:43:21,932
Or he could get 10 percent of the million
from the government, if he turns you in.
602
00:43:21,933 --> 00:43:23,892
You're up on these things.
603
00:43:23,893 --> 00:43:27,729
604
00:43:27,730 --> 00:43:31,900
But I don't see why I should buy them
when I might persuade you to get them.
605
00:43:31,901 --> 00:43:33,777
606
00:43:33,778 --> 00:43:35,403
But I can trust you.
607
00:43:35,404 --> 00:43:37,948
You know, I don't think
you can trust anybody.
608
00:43:37,949 --> 00:43:40,450
You better go in there
and get them yourself.
609
00:43:40,451 --> 00:43:43,078
610
00:43:43,079 --> 00:43:44,496
You don't like it?
611
00:43:44,497 --> 00:43:47,207
No, I just can't get
away from my business.
612
00:43:47,208 --> 00:43:49,668
Well, it's a nice view.
613
00:43:49,669 --> 00:43:51,767
Let's have some breakfast.
614
00:43:58,678 --> 00:44:01,151
WHIT:
You remember Kathie, don't you?
615
00:44:03,391 --> 00:44:05,659
Yeah, I remember Kathie.
616
00:44:07,687 --> 00:44:09,354
Sit down.
617
00:44:09,355 --> 00:44:12,190
Kathie's back in the fold now.
618
00:44:12,191 --> 00:44:15,694

You see, Jeff, you
owe me something.
620

You'll never be happy until
you square yourself.
621
00:44:20,741 --> 00:44:23,669
Did you bare your
heart to him, Kathie?
622
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:25,888
I couldn't help it, Jeff.
623
00:44:27,331 --> 00:44:30,250

00:44:30,251 --> 00:44:32,085
You're working for me.
625
00:44:32,086 --> 00:44:34,838
This man I told you about,
his name is Leonard Eels...
626
00:44:34,839 --> 00:44:36,798
but, uh, you won't
go to him directly.
627
00:44:36,799 --> 00:44:39,342
He has a secretary that
he's rather fond of.
628
00:44:39,343 --> 00:44:42,387
Her name is Meta Carson.
You'll find her charming.
629
00:44:42,388 --> 00:44:44,531
She may even find you charming.
630
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,017
I understand that women have.
631
00:44:47,018 --> 00:44:49,412
She'll tell you how it's lined up.
632
00:44:50,354 --> 00:44:53,282
You, uh, know San
Francisco, don't you?
633
00:44:54,025 --> 00:44:56,443
Yeah, I was there once at a party.

637

And don't start worrying.
638
00:45:10,666 --> 00:45:12,639
Why should I?

(DOORKNOB CLICKING)
640
00:45:34,732 --> 00:45:38,536
Jeff, I had to come back.
What else could I do?
641
00:45:38,945 --> 00:45:41,196
You can never help
anything, can you?
642
00:45:41,197 --> 00:45:45,627
You're like a leaf that the wind
blows from one gutter to another.

you do, even murder.

About Fisher. Did he look
into you for that too?
649
00:46:06,264 --> 00:46:08,441
No, I didn't tell that.
650
00:46:09,392 --> 00:46:11,142
651
00:46:11,143 --> 00:46:14,187
I wouldn't tell him that.
I wouldn't tell anyone that.
652
00:46:14,188 --> 00:46:16,439
I swear it, Jeff. Believe me.
653
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:18,608
Sure. Sure, I believe you.
654
00:46:18,609 --> 00:46:20,610
I didn't know what to do.
655
00:46:20,611 --> 00:46:23,446
I was always afraid of him
and afraid of what I'd done.

I couldn't live that way
anymore. I couldn't stand it.

Oh, Jeff, I've missed you.
658

I've wondered about you and
prayed you'd understand.

Can you understand?
660
00:46:33,541 --> 00:46:35,343
You prayed, Kathie?
661
00:46:35,376 --> 00:46:37,644
Can't you even feel sorry for me?

00:46:40,172 --> 00:46:43,521

I have to sleep in this room.

you have here.

when they're remodeled, can't they?

I used to live in one in
New York that was old.

take some papers home.

898
01:07:45,520 --> 01:07:47,788
After you.
899
01:07:49,857 --> 01:07:52,109
900
01:07:52,110 --> 01:07:53,902
You can now. Start moving.
901
01:07:53,903 --> 01:07:58,458
902
01:08:09,294 --> 01:08:11,722
Well, we meet in all
kinds of places.
903
01:08:17,844 --> 01:08:20,679
That evens this. Fold your
hands, or I'll do it for you.
904
01:08:20,680 --> 01:08:23,108
You talk big, mister.
905
01:08:33,693 --> 01:08:35,360
906
01:08:35,361 --> 01:08:37,696
I told you. I'm tired of
getting pushed around.
907
01:08:37,697 --> 01:08:40,824
You'll only get yourself out
of breath. Won't he, Joe?
908
01:08:40,825 --> 01:08:42,409
Cut it, Lou.
909
01:08:42,410 --> 01:08:45,704
Your move now is to do a little
thinking. A little talking.
910
01:08:45,705 --> 01:08:48,999
See, I've got the files that
were in your briefcase.
911
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:51,585
I also know the address of
the Treasury Department.
912
01:08:51,586 --> 01:08:55,088
That's the theory, isn't it? Keep the
files away from the treasury boys.
913
01:08:55,089 --> 01:08:57,507
Save Whit from doing 10
years in a federal pen.
914
01:08:57,508 --> 01:09:01,345
915
01:09:01,346 --> 01:09:05,140
Sure. Of course, the government may
just pat Whit on the back and say:
916
01:09:05,141 --> 01:09:09,144
"Go on home. We got all the dough we need.
We'll never miss your million dollars."
917
01:09:09,145 --> 01:09:11,605
You wanna lay a price on that?
918
01:09:11,606 --> 01:09:13,658
How did you know I
had the briefcase?
919
01:09:15,109 --> 01:09:17,361
JEFF: I had Meta tailed.
920
01:09:17,362 --> 01:09:20,322
You sure about that?
921
01:09:20,323 --> 01:09:23,909
Look, I don't have to be sure
about anything except the files.
922
01:09:23,910 --> 01:09:27,430
Now, do you wanna talk business,
or do you wanna play house?
923
01:09:27,580 --> 01:09:30,165
What's your idea?
924
01:09:30,166 --> 01:09:33,335
You get the files, and you
also get Eels' body...
925
01:09:33,336 --> 01:09:35,796
in case you wanna keep
it from the cops.
926
01:09:35,797 --> 01:09:37,940
What do you want?
927
01:09:38,341 --> 01:09:42,612
I want the affidavit that Meta put in
Eels' safe when she took the files out.
928
01:09:42,845 --> 01:09:47,491
A lie that somebody put on paper that
I killed a guy named Jack Fisher.
929
01:09:47,850 --> 01:09:49,777
Because, you see,
I only buried him.
930
01:09:49,977 --> 01:09:52,655
And you don't get the gas
for being the undertaker.
931
01:09:52,855 --> 01:09:56,024
Four of us knew about that
affidavit outside of Whit.
932
01:09:56,025 --> 01:09:58,077
Somebody talked.
933
01:10:04,075 --> 01:10:07,128
934
01:10:07,537 --> 01:10:09,589

Oh, you've hurt her feelings, Lou.
I can tell you, she's a sensitive girl.
938
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:23,885
939
01:10:23,886 --> 01:10:27,347
All you'll need is Meta to unlock
that safe in Eels' office.

941
01:10:30,226 --> 01:10:32,853
Good. Then you can start right now.
942
01:10:32,854 --> 01:10:36,982
I'll call you in about an hour. That'll
give you time to find her and get there.
943
01:10:36,983 --> 01:10:40,402
Give you a little extra time to
figure out how you're gonna cross me.
944
01:10:40,403 --> 01:10:42,455

What are you scared about?
1023
01:19:07,368 --> 01:19:12,048
Joe isn't coming back. He got
careless and fell in the river.

Didn't you hear what I said?
Joe's dead, Kathie.

Talk to Whit. Don't
you think I should?
1028
01:19:25,427 --> 01:19:29,138
Yes, of course you should. He wants
to see you. He's waiting for you.

told the kid he was fishing.

late this afternoon.

Sure. Sure.
1046
01:20:37,708 --> 01:20:40,668
I get a modest settlement. Say...
1047
01:20:40,669 --> 01:20:42,670
Oh, say 50,000.
1048
01:20:42,671 --> 01:20:46,396
That should be enough for me to
spend my waning years in Mazatlán.
1049
01:20:46,675 --> 01:20:49,844
Not Acapulco because I'd keep
thinking about you, Kathie.
1050
01:20:49,845 --> 01:20:52,847
Up there in the women's
prison in Tehachapi.
1051
01:20:52,848 --> 01:20:56,243
It won't be too bad. Hills all
around you, plenty of sun.
1052
01:20:57,519 --> 01:20:59,645
You make me nervous.
1053
01:20:59,646 --> 01:21:04,067
You'll be happier if you let the cops
have her. That's what you'll have to do.
1054
01:21:04,068 --> 01:21:08,196
Somebody's gotta take the rap for
Fisher's murder. It's not gonna be me.
1055

1059
01:21:20,376 --> 01:21:24,462
See, Whit? Self-defense. A cinch to beat.
She might not even have to do time.
1060
01:21:24,463 --> 01:21:28,609
1061
01:21:30,594 --> 01:21:32,817
Go on, Kathie, tell him about Joe.
1062
01:21:32,888 --> 01:21:35,014
What about Joe? Where is he?
1063
01:21:35,015 --> 01:21:37,934
Last time I saw him, he was
in the East Walker River.
1064
01:21:37,935 --> 01:21:41,660
I didn't send him after Jeff.
It was his own idea.

1066
01:21:46,944 --> 01:21:50,696
When I got there, it was too
late. That's a mean river.

01:21:50,697 --> 01:21:52,115
WHIT: He was trailing you?
1068
01:21:52,116 --> 01:21:54,700
Well, you don't go fishing
with a .45 in your hand.
1069
01:21:54,701 --> 01:21:57,453
But stop worrying about it.
It makes everything simple.
1070
01:21:57,454 --> 01:22:01,374
A dead man? Fish him out. Stick
a note in his pocket. Suicide.

01:22:01,375 --> 01:22:04,627
He couldn't stand living
with what he had done.
1072
01:22:04,628 --> 01:22:08,148
Don't look so stricken, Whit.
You'll get over it. I did.
1073
01:22:08,173 --> 01:22:11,773
But you talk it out if you want
to. I'll be waiting in there.
1074
01:22:11,802 --> 01:22:13,678
Oh, one thing, Kathie:
1075
01:22:13,679 --> 01:22:17,014
Did it take much persuasion to
make you say I killed Fisher?
1076
01:22:17,015 --> 01:22:21,227
Come on. Feed my ego.
Tell me he beat you.
1077
01:22:21,228 --> 01:22:24,577
Tell me he had to drag
every word out of you.
1078
01:22:24,857 --> 01:22:28,818
1079
01:22:28,819 --> 01:22:30,871
Get out.
1080
01:22:47,212 --> 01:22:50,131
You dirty little phony.
Go on, lie some more.
1081
01:22:50,132 --> 01:22:52,842
Tell me how you handled things
for me in San Francisco.
1082
01:22:52,843 --> 01:22:55,052
Tell me it was all Joe's
idea. Go on, Kathie.
1083
01:22:55,053 --> 01:22:57,847
Show me how you're gonna
squirm your way out this time.
1084
01:22:57,848 --> 01:23:00,850
1085
01:23:00,851 --> 01:23:04,520
I took you back when you came
whimpering and crawling.
1086
01:23:04,521 --> 01:23:07,440
I should have kicked your teeth in.
1087
01:23:07,441 --> 01:23:10,693
No, I'm not going to.
1088
01:23:10,694 --> 01:23:14,947
Not now, Kathie. We'll let
the law push you around.
1089
01:23:14,948 --> 01:23:16,866
1090
01:23:16,867 --> 01:23:19,076
You're gonna take the
rap and play along.
1091
01:23:19,077 --> 01:23:21,996
You're gonna make every
exact move I tell you.
1092
01:23:21,997 --> 01:23:24,499
If you don't, I'll kill you.
1093
01:23:24,500 --> 01:23:27,335
And I'll promise you one
thing: It won't be quick.
1094
01:23:27,336 --> 01:23:29,420
I'll break you first.
1095
01:23:29,421 --> 01:23:33,466
You won't be able to answer a phone or
open a door without thinking, "This is it."
1096
01:23:33,467 --> 01:23:37,303
And when it comes,
it still won't be quick.
1097
01:23:37,304 --> 01:23:39,527
And it won't be pretty.
1098
01:23:40,724 --> 01:23:43,527
You can take your choice.
1099
01:23:43,936 --> 01:23:45,863
KATHIE: Whit.
1100
01:24:04,831 --> 01:24:08,334
I have to go to Reno for
your money. Where's the file?
1101
01:24:08,335 --> 01:24:10,933
JEFF: It'll be mailed to you.
1102
01:24:11,129 --> 01:24:14,353
I crossed you once. I know better
than to try it a second time.
1103
01:24:15,217 --> 01:24:18,010
I've got a reason for
wanting to be let alone.
1104
01:24:18,011 --> 01:24:20,814
You'll get the file,
after I'm out of reach.
1105
01:24:22,015 --> 01:24:24,934
Well, if that's the
way it has to be.
1106
01:24:24,935 --> 01:24:28,187
While you're in Reno, find a pilot
who can keep his mouth shut.
1107
01:24:28,188 --> 01:24:31,691
Tell him to set his plane down in
the desert where he won't be seen.
1108
01:24:31,692 --> 01:24:33,734
Make it about dawn.
1109
01:24:33,735 --> 01:24:36,696
And cheer up, Kathie.
You'll get out of it all right.
1110
01:24:36,697 --> 01:24:39,170
You always have.
1111
01:25:27,956 --> 01:25:30,458
1112
01:25:30,459 --> 01:25:34,503
1113
01:25:34,504 --> 01:25:37,506
Everything you say
to me, I believe.
1114
01:25:37,507 --> 01:25:40,310
I don't know why I do this.
1115
01:25:40,636 --> 01:25:43,804
I don't know why I let you come
back into my life. Why I don't...
1116
01:25:43,805 --> 01:25:47,183
slap your face and send
you home. I don't know.
1117
01:25:47,184 --> 01:25:50,436
1118
01:25:50,437 --> 01:25:53,707
1119
01:25:54,316 --> 01:25:56,914
You know, I had to come back.
1120
01:26:00,989 --> 01:26:05,010
1121
01:26:05,744 --> 01:26:09,622
1122
01:26:09,623 --> 01:26:13,268
1123
01:26:14,294 --> 01:26:17,171
She can't be all bad. No one is.
1124
01:26:17,172 --> 01:26:19,840
Well, she comes the closest.
1125
01:26:19,841 --> 01:26:22,843
1126
01:26:22,844 --> 01:26:25,930
Then look at her.
And look at yourself.
1127
01:26:25,931 --> 01:26:31,237
And be very sure that there isn't
even a little bit of love left for her.
1128
01:26:31,978 --> 01:26:36,691
Then when you find out and you
know it once and forever...
1129
01:26:36,692 --> 01:26:38,693
send for me.
1130
01:26:38,694 --> 01:26:42,498
I don't have to find out.
I know it now.
1131
01:26:44,324 --> 01:26:48,119
1132
01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:51,580
and luck is like love. You have
to go all the way to find it.
1133
01:26:51,581 --> 01:26:53,666
You do to keep it.
1134
01:26:53,667 --> 01:26:56,627
You better go. Did the
kid do what I told him?
1135
01:26:56,628 --> 01:26:59,672
They're following him south,
the state police and all of them.
1136
01:26:59,673 --> 01:27:01,225
Good.
1137
01:27:02,217 --> 01:27:04,770
I can't go.
1138
01:27:24,322 --> 01:27:27,626
1139
01:27:29,161 --> 01:27:32,538
1140
01:27:32,539 --> 01:27:34,307
I was going to kill you.
1141
01:27:34,416 --> 01:27:37,219
1142
01:27:39,504 --> 01:27:41,181
I followed Ann tonight.
1143
01:27:42,007 --> 01:27:45,968
1144
01:27:45,969 --> 01:27:49,764
1145
01:27:49,765 --> 01:27:52,558
I've loved her ever since
I fixed her roller skates.
1146
01:27:52,559 --> 01:27:55,853
I don't know whether I'm good enough
for her, but I know you aren't.
1147
01:27:55,854 --> 01:27:59,106
That's one difference. The
other is that she loves me.
1148
01:27:59,107 --> 01:28:02,693
You told her you didn't know why you
let her back into your dirty life.
1149
01:28:02,694 --> 01:28:06,197
I don't know what got you where you
are or where it's gonna take you.
1150
01:28:06,198 --> 01:28:08,671
She's not going with it.
1151
01:28:09,993 --> 01:28:11,869
Why don't you say it to the law.
1152
01:28:11,870 --> 01:28:15,390
Then all the rest of your life
you can tell her how you did it.
1153
01:29:01,920 --> 01:29:05,394
KATHIE: You can't make deals
with a dead man, Jeff.
1154

No, you can't.

Remember the mountains? Higher than
these and always snow on them.

01:29:37,664 --> 01:29:40,207
I never told you I was
anything but what I am.
1161
01:29:40,208 --> 01:29:42,501
You just wanted to imagine I was.
1162
01:29:42,502 --> 01:29:46,005
That's why I left you.
Now we're back to stay.
1163
01:29:46,006 --> 01:29:49,884
1164
01:29:49,885 --> 01:29:53,721
Whit's dead. A bundle of
papers isn't any good.
1165
01:29:53,722 --> 01:29:57,182
If Joe was around, you could
use him, but Joe's dead too.
1166
01:29:57,183 --> 01:29:59,643
So, what are you gonna do
about Eels and Fisher?
1167
01:29:59,644 --> 01:30:02,187
For that matter, what are
you gonna do about this?
1168
01:30:02,188 --> 01:30:04,398
Someone has to take the blame.
1169
01:30:04,399 --> 01:30:08,954
You have nothing on me, but I'd make
a fine witness for the prosecution.
1170

Don't you see? You've only
me to make deals with now.

No, we're starting all over.
I wanna go back to Mexico.
1173
01:30:21,917 --> 01:30:25,002
I wanna walk out of the sun
again and find you waiting.
1174
01:30:25,003 --> 01:30:29,173
I wanna sit in the same moonlight and tell
you all the things I never told you...
1175
01:30:29,174 --> 01:30:33,093
until you don't hate me.
Until sometime you love again.
1176
01:30:33,094 --> 01:30:36,221
They'll always be looking for us.
They won't stop till we die.
1177
01:30:36,222 --> 01:30:39,822
I don't care. Just so
they find us together.
1178
01:30:40,685 --> 01:30:44,980
If you're thinking of anyone
else, don't. It wouldn't work.
1179
01:30:44,981 --> 01:30:47,483
You're no good for anyone but me.
1180
01:30:47,484 --> 01:30:49,661
You're no good and neither am I.
1181
01:30:49,986 --> 01:30:52,880
That's why we deserve each other.
1182

- Why?

First she's got you, now
she's got you and Bailey.
29
00:03:50,731 --> 00:03:53,691
And the only thing I
seem to get is older.
30
00:03:53,692 --> 00:03:56,461
Thanks a lot, Marny.
I'll see you later.
31
00:03:59,364 --> 00:04:02,700
Hmm. I guess I must
have said something.
32
00:04:02,701 --> 00:04:04,253
You talked enough.
33
00:04:04,661 --> 00:04:07,747
Everything people ought to know
they just don't want to hear.
34
00:04:07,748 --> 00:04:09,707
That's the trouble with the world.
35
00:04:09,708 --> 00:04:12,877
Either that or you're on the
wrong side of the counter.
36
00:04:12,878 --> 00:04:16,338
- Tell me something.
- You don't look as though I could.
37
00:04:16,339 --> 00:04:19,759
That, uh, Bailey who burns you
up, he run the gas station?
38
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,053
- Do you know him?
- I might have once.
39
00:04:23,054 --> 00:04:26,348
If he keeps mooning around
Jim's girl, nobody'll know him...
40
00:04:26,349 --> 00:04:28,809
and that'd be too bad.
41
00:04:28,810 --> 00:04:32,438
You, uh, see much of this Bailey?
42
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:35,441
Yeah, every day from here.
43
00:04:35,442 --> 00:04:37,526
I often wondered what
happened to him...
44
00:04:37,527 --> 00:04:42,333
then one day I'm breezing through here,
and there's his name up on a sign.
45
00:04:42,532 --> 00:04:47,338
- It's a small world.
- Yeah, or a big sign.
46
00:05:03,178 --> 00:05:08,405
- They're just not feeding today.
- They will later. It's clouding up.
47
00:05:09,226 --> 00:05:12,061
They say the day you die,
your name is written on a cloud.
48
00:05:12,062 --> 00:05:14,230
- Who says?
- They.
49
00:05:14,231 --> 00:05:16,440
Never heard of them.
50
00:05:16,441 --> 00:05:19,693
Nothing in that one but rain.
Think we ought to go home?
51
00:05:19,694 --> 00:05:21,111
Yes.
52
00:05:21,112 --> 00:05:23,961
- Do you want to?
- No.
53
00:05:25,992 --> 00:05:30,037
Every time I look at the sky, I think
of all the places I've never been.
54
00:05:30,038 --> 00:05:33,808
Yes, and every time you look
up, they're all the same.
55
00:05:34,334 --> 00:05:37,837
- You've been a lot of places, haven't you?
- One too many.
56
00:05:37,838 --> 00:05:41,131
- Which did you like best?
- This one right here.
57
00:05:41,132 --> 00:05:45,094
- I bet you say that to all the places.
- You see that cove over there?
58
00:05:45,095 --> 00:05:47,137
I'd like to build a
house right there...
59
00:05:47,138 --> 00:05:50,738
marry you, live in it and
never go anywhere else.
60
00:05:51,184 --> 00:05:53,987
I wish you would.
61
00:06:00,485 --> 00:06:04,196
You were never married
before, were you?
62
00:06:04,197 --> 00:06:06,490
Not that I can remember.
63
00:06:06,491 --> 00:06:08,409
That's good.
64
00:06:08,410 --> 00:06:11,537
You'd be amazed the way
people talk about you.

66
00:06:15,542 --> 00:06:19,587
My mother tells me that I've only
known you for such a short time.
67
00:06:19,588 --> 00:06:22,266
And where'd you come from?
And what did you do?
68
00:06:24,342 --> 00:06:27,111
My father was...
69
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:40,149
- We'd better go.
- Is something the matter?
70
00:06:40,150 --> 00:06:42,202
Maybe not.
71
00:06:45,822 --> 00:06:48,124
Here.
72
00:06:51,745 --> 00:06:55,140
You sure are a secret man.
73
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,043
Thanks.
74
00:06:59,044 --> 00:07:01,962

- Hello, Joe. I wish it was nicer to see you.
78
00:07:27,614 --> 00:07:30,950
Everyone sure missed you, Jeff,
but not as much as I have.
79
00:07:30,951 --> 00:07:33,118
- How's that?
- Whit used to look at me...
80
00:07:33,119 --> 00:07:36,497
shake his head, and wish
I had brains like you.
81
00:07:36,498 --> 00:07:40,501
- What's the other reason?
- I had to find you.
82
00:07:40,502 --> 00:07:42,628
- I owe you something?
- Not me.

Who?
84
00:07:44,506 --> 00:07:48,217
- How far can that kid read lips?
- I don't know. I'll ask him some time.
85
00:07:48,218 --> 00:07:50,219
This far?
86
00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:54,056
- You don't like to make mistakes, do you?
- They don't let me have many.
87
00:07:54,057 --> 00:07:56,610
All right, come on inside.
88
00:08:01,898 --> 00:08:05,776
- Funny racket to find you in, Jeff.
- Yeah, me and the kid laugh all the time.
89
00:08:05,777 --> 00:08:08,487
Heh. I guess that's
because it's respectable.
90
00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:11,532
That hash slinger across the
street says you are too.
91
00:08:11,533 --> 00:08:15,285
- How did you happen to find me, Joe?
- I was driving down the road one day...
92
00:08:15,286 --> 00:08:20,457
and who do I see pumping gasoline
but my old chum from the old times.
93
00:08:20,458 --> 00:08:22,793
Of course, there's a
different name on the sign.
94
00:08:22,794 --> 00:08:25,546
- So you just dropped in?
- Why not?
95
00:08:25,547 --> 00:08:28,674
Okay, then I'm glad to
see an old pal too.
96
00:08:28,675 --> 00:08:32,636
So I take you to dinner, buy you
drinks, it gets late chewing the fat...

you hop in your car and
you're gone. Right?
98
00:08:35,056 --> 00:08:37,975
- Almost.
- What else?
99
00:08:37,976 --> 00:08:40,269
I'm still working
for that guy, Jeff.
100

- He'd like to see you.

- Heh.

- Worse.
- I see.

more of you than Whit.

- Maybe he's got something nice for you.

- Try once more.
- Heh.

Look, Whit never steered you
into anything bad, did he?
109
00:09:05,587 --> 00:09:09,339
Why, he never even squawked when you
blew the best thing he ever gave you.

- Go on.
- The guy just wants to see you.

way, what can I do?

You know of any other
way to put it?

- Where?

to tell you sometime.

chest: My name isn't Bailey, it's Markham.

- Markham. Jeff Markham?
- I should have told you before.

I meant to, but I kept
putting it off...

like any part of it.

It doesn't matter.

00:11:18,553 --> 00:11:22,181
Well, our friend Markham
lived in New York.
139
00:11:22,182 --> 00:11:26,894
He worked with a sort of stupid,
oily gent by the name of Jack Fisher.

We called ourselves detectives.

That was about three
years ago, maybe more.

Wintertime. One of the coldest
days I remember in the town.
143

come and see a big op.

- A what?
- An operator, gambler.
145
00:11:44,787 --> 00:11:48,707
He didn't come to see us because he
was too high-powered a character.
146
00:11:48,708 --> 00:11:53,170
Also, because some dame had taken
four shots at him with his own .38.
147
00:11:53,171 --> 00:11:55,769
Made one of them good.
148
00:11:59,594 --> 00:12:03,180
He was taking it in stride, but he
had a friend who was a ball of fire.

do they think they're kidding?

of a sleeve during a gin game.

Yeah, that's what I mean.

caught in a mutuel machine.

You should go out and
visit it sometime.

No, I just want her back. When you
see her, you'll understand better.

- No, for myself. Where'd she go?

00:25:53,552 --> 00:25:56,512
- I didn't know you were so little.
- I'm taller than Napoleon.
353
00:25:56,513 --> 00:25:58,941
You're prettier too.
354
00:26:01,268 --> 00:26:04,062
- Did you miss me?
- No more than I would my eyes.
355
00:26:04,063 --> 00:26:08,869
- Where should we go tonight?
- Let's go to my place.
356
00:26:12,780 --> 00:26:16,365
JEFF: It was the first time she had
mentioned her place or going there.
357
00:26:16,366 --> 00:26:21,297
Maybe she'd decided something, or it was
because the sky looked full of rain.
358
00:26:24,875 --> 00:26:29,055
(BOTH LAUGHING)
359
00:26:35,260 --> 00:26:39,931
JEFF: It was a nice little joint with
bamboo furniture and Mexican gimcracks.
360
00:26:39,932 --> 00:26:42,809
One little lamp burned.
It was all right.
361
00:26:42,810 --> 00:26:47,021
And the rain hammering like that on the
window made it good to be in there.
362
00:26:47,022 --> 00:26:49,165
Here.
363
00:26:50,442 --> 00:26:53,586
Hey, hey, not so hard.
364
00:26:56,782 --> 00:26:58,282
(MUSIC PLAYING OVER GRAMOPHONE)
365
00:26:58,283 --> 00:27:00,159
- Now yours.
- No, Joe, it's all right.
366
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,662
- Oh, come on.
- No, not so hard, Jeff. My earring.
367
00:27:02,663 --> 00:27:06,433
Hush! I'm trying to dry your hair.
368
00:27:28,814 --> 00:27:31,190
- JEFF: Are you going with me?
- Where?
369
00:27:31,191 --> 00:27:34,026
- Wherever it takes us.
- Why?
370
00:27:34,027 --> 00:27:39,549
To make a life for ourselves, to get
away from Whit. He knows I'm here.
371
00:27:41,243 --> 00:27:44,036
- When?
- Tomorrow.
372
00:27:44,037 --> 00:27:48,499
Pack in the morning, meet me at
the hotel if you can make it.
373
00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:52,461
- I can make it. Can we get away with it?
- Let's find out.
374
00:27:52,462 --> 00:27:56,007
- You don't know Whit. He won't forget.
- Everybody forgets.
375
00:27:56,008 --> 00:27:57,425
Not Whit.
376
00:27:57,426 --> 00:28:00,946
So we'll send him a
postcard every Christmas.
377
00:28:01,513 --> 00:28:03,764
Jeff, I'm glad you're
not afraid of him.
378
00:28:03,765 --> 00:28:06,559
I've been afraid of half
the things I ever did.
379
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:11,787
- And this time?
- I'm only afraid you might not go.
380
00:28:12,608 --> 00:28:15,151
Don't be.
381
00:28:15,152 --> 00:28:18,029
I'll be there tomorrow.
382
00:28:18,030 --> 00:28:21,199
- Love me?
- Mm-hm.
383
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,035
- Poco?
- What's that?
384
00:28:24,036 --> 00:28:27,590
- A little.
- Mucho.

(WHISTLING)
388
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,148
- Well, the last guy in the world.
- I hate surprises myself.
389
00:28:54,149 --> 00:28:58,204
- You wanna just shut the door and forget it?
- No, no. Come on in.
390
00:28:59,363 --> 00:29:02,448
I like surprises. When I was
a kid, we were so busted...
391
00:29:02,449 --> 00:29:05,868
that if we got anything at all for
Christmas it was a big surprise.
392
00:29:05,869 --> 00:29:08,579
- Sit down, have a chair.
- Thanks.
393
00:29:08,580 --> 00:29:11,303
- Been here long?
- Oh...
394
00:29:11,667 --> 00:29:14,641
- WHIT: How long, Joe?
- JOE: Hardly at all.
395
00:29:16,463 --> 00:29:19,674
JEFF: I just wondered who
might be following whom.
396
00:29:19,675 --> 00:29:22,343
What makes you think that?
397
00:29:22,344 --> 00:29:26,222
Look, I know how you trust people. About
as far as you can throw Stephanos here.
398
00:29:26,223 --> 00:29:30,685
And that's all right with me, only
let's not get so cute about it.
399
00:29:30,686 --> 00:29:35,787
I'm on my way to Mexico City,
see a man about a horse.
400
00:29:36,275 --> 00:29:41,206
On the level. A racehorse
from South America.
401
00:29:43,490 --> 00:29:46,158
- Checking out?
- JEFF: Sure. Why waste your money?
402
00:29:46,159 --> 00:29:50,635
- Did you find her?
- No, only her trail.
403
00:29:50,872 --> 00:29:56,850
Not quite as hot as a prairie fire, but
there. Sometimes a little too obvious.
404
00:29:58,505 --> 00:30:01,257
She's a clever little girl.
405
00:30:01,258 --> 00:30:04,677
- Is she?
- Wouldn't you say so?
406
00:30:04,678 --> 00:30:07,638
You should have told me, I would
have played it differently.
407
00:30:07,639 --> 00:30:10,516
Maybe she wouldn't have
heard my shoes squeaking.
408
00:30:10,517 --> 00:30:15,688
Always a hop, skip and a jump ahead
of me. Mexico City to Taxco to here.
409
00:30:15,689 --> 00:30:20,443
- And here, Jeff, did you see her?
- No. I wish I had.
410
00:30:20,444 --> 00:30:23,404
I don't like playing games
when I'm the fall guy.
411
00:30:23,405 --> 00:30:24,780
You might remember that, Whit.

- Nice shoes. Sporty for you, aren't they?
- JEFF: Yeah, I got them down here.
416
00:30:50,932 --> 00:30:54,060
As I said before, I thought
maybe the others squeaked.
417
00:30:54,061 --> 00:30:58,616
Let's go down to the bar. You can cool
off while we try to impress each other.
418
00:30:59,691 --> 00:31:01,834
Fine.
419
00:31:06,239 --> 00:31:09,700
Nice place. I'd like to
stay here a while myself.
420
00:31:09,701 --> 00:31:12,470
You did, by proxy.

I don't care what.

Certainly, sir.

- So you blew it.
- Anybody can have bad luck.
425
00:31:31,890 --> 00:31:35,726
- And squeaky shoes.
- Think of a number, Joe.
426
00:31:35,727 --> 00:31:40,106
- Where were you off to?
- The telegraph office to wire you.
427
00:31:40,107 --> 00:31:43,581
I told you, I don't like
to spend your money.
428

- I can stand it.
- Well, it's your business.
429

Whit, my friend, there's a million dames
in this world, and they all look like her.
430
00:31:52,786 --> 00:31:55,509
No, they don't.
431
00:31:56,706 --> 00:31:58,541
So she was here.
432
00:31:58,542 --> 00:32:02,002
Well, according to all
available evidence, she was.
433
00:32:02,003 --> 00:32:04,630
Maybe I should've sent Stephanos.
434

- Could you find one dame in a million, Joe?
- A one with 40 grand.

You picked up some nerves.

I don't need a crack like that
any more than I need your dough.
439

That's what I've been telling you. I missed
her. The dame caught a boat south.
440
00:32:25,819 --> 00:32:29,113
- Where?
- Look, I got along before this job.
441
00:32:29,114 --> 00:32:33,284
I ate good, and I grew as big as you did.
If there's something you don't like, say so.

- I just asked where.
- Chile. Guatemala.

company? You wanna talk to him right now?

- Taxi, sir?
- Yeah.
446
00:32:56,433 --> 00:32:59,977
I'm sorry. You missed
her and you feel bad.
447
00:32:59,978 --> 00:33:01,780
I shouldn't have joked about it.
448
00:33:01,897 --> 00:33:03,522
All right, then I won't either.
449
00:33:03,523 --> 00:33:07,026
You get your 5 grand back and
Stephanos can take over from here.

WHIT: You're wrong.
451
00:33:08,778 --> 00:33:11,697
I fire people, but nobody quits me.
452
00:33:11,698 --> 00:33:14,376
You started this and you'll end it.
453
00:33:14,701 --> 00:33:17,995
Besides, Joe couldn't find
a prayer in the Bible.

You'll find her. Take it easy.
455
00:33:20,415 --> 00:33:23,792
Take your time. Well, better
get back to the airport.

Good luck, Jeff.

00:33:25,337 --> 00:33:27,264
See you someday.
458
00:33:33,929 --> 00:33:36,847
JEFF: It wasn't all a lie
because she did take a steamer.
459
00:33:36,848 --> 00:33:39,600
It was just that it went
north instead of south.
460
00:33:39,601 --> 00:33:41,949
And I was on it too.
461
00:33:42,395 --> 00:33:45,448
I opened an office
in San Francisco.
462
00:33:46,107 --> 00:33:49,151
A cheap little rat hole
that suited the work I did.
463
00:33:49,152 --> 00:33:52,196
Shabby jobs for who'd ever hire me.
464
00:33:52,197 --> 00:33:57,048
It was the bottom of the barrel,
and I scraped it, but I didn't care.
465
00:33:57,369 --> 00:33:59,512
I had her.
466
00:34:00,372 --> 00:34:02,331
JEFF:
We kept pretty much to ourselves.
467
00:34:02,332 --> 00:34:04,959
We found a little movie
house in North Beach.
468
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,629
We were on the run. We went to places
we never would've seen in our lives.
469
00:34:08,630 --> 00:34:11,507
And after a while, we grew a
little more sure of ourselves.
470
00:34:11,508 --> 00:34:16,095
We drifted back to more familiar
places, ballparks and the racetracks.
471
00:34:16,096 --> 00:34:21,402
Why not? After all, there wasn't one chance
in a million we'd bump into our past.
472
00:34:23,853 --> 00:34:25,826
One chance in a million.
473
00:34:26,565 --> 00:34:30,693
One chance in a million was all that chump
ever had in his life, and he made it good.
474
00:34:30,694 --> 00:34:34,363
He stood there with our lives in his
pocket, because I knew if he saw her...
475
00:34:34,364 --> 00:34:37,417
he'd sell us both for $1.95.
476
00:34:37,492 --> 00:34:39,965
So we had to separate.
477
00:34:41,371 --> 00:34:45,082
I went alone to L.A., and I made
it easy for him to follow me.
478
00:34:45,083 --> 00:34:49,104
He was a good gumshoe. It was the
one thing he could really do.
479
00:34:49,296 --> 00:34:51,880
So I went everywhere like a
guy enjoying the country.
480
00:34:51,881 --> 00:34:54,717
I didn't write to her
or phone or telegraph.
481
00:34:54,718 --> 00:34:56,927
I just waited and moved.
482
00:34:56,928 --> 00:35:00,347
When it seemed right, I blew out
of town to go and meet her.
483
00:35:00,348 --> 00:35:04,824
I wasn't bad at the game myself. I was sure
I had shaken him loose, and I felt good.
484
00:35:11,318 --> 00:35:14,997
Fisher was back there somewhere,
and I could see her again.
485
00:35:15,488 --> 00:35:19,491
We'd arranged to meet at a little cabin
off the highway on Pyramid Creek.
486
00:35:19,492 --> 00:35:21,869
It was dark when I
was getting there.
487
00:35:21,870 --> 00:35:24,923
And then I saw her walking up
the road in the headlights.
488
00:35:31,004 --> 00:35:34,934
- JEFF: You want a lift, babe?
- Well, I really hadn't ought.
489
00:35:36,384 --> 00:35:39,428
JEFF: You're a cute little package
to be out walking alone at night.
490
00:35:39,429 --> 00:35:42,306
You're kind of cute yourself
to be walking alone any night.
491
00:35:42,307 --> 00:35:43,984
That does it.
492
00:35:48,938 --> 00:35:52,232
JEFF: It was meeting her
somewhere, like in the first times.
493
00:35:52,233 --> 00:35:54,943
There was still that something
about her that got me.
494
00:35:54,944 --> 00:35:57,417
A kind of magic or whatever it was.
495
00:35:57,656 --> 00:36:01,756
Well, I held her, and we could laugh
because we were together again.
496
00:36:01,785 --> 00:36:05,134
We'd played it smart
and forgotten nothing.
497
00:36:05,372 --> 00:36:07,873
Forgotten nothing except one thing.
498
00:36:07,874 --> 00:36:09,551
(CAR DOOR CLOSES)
499
00:36:18,134 --> 00:36:19,885
JEFF: He had followed her.
500
00:36:19,886 --> 00:36:21,483
Hello, Jeff.
501
00:36:31,189 --> 00:36:33,162
Don't I get introduced?
502
00:36:35,527 --> 00:36:37,955
I don't blame you, Jeff.
503
00:36:38,029 --> 00:36:40,957
Maybe I'd have lied my head
off just like you did.
504
00:36:41,032 --> 00:36:44,302
Your picture don't do
you justice, baby.
505
00:36:44,911 --> 00:36:48,414
- Why don't you break his head, Jeff?
- Cute.
506
00:36:48,415 --> 00:36:51,917
Whit should've got her back. As I
understand, they deserve each other.
507
00:36:51,918 --> 00:36:55,546
- You working for him now?
- Who else would he get to find my partner?
508
00:36:55,547 --> 00:36:58,020
All right, Fisher,
what's the pitch?
509
00:36:58,174 --> 00:37:00,884
You and I had a little deal, Jeff.
510
00:37:00,885 --> 00:37:04,304
Ten grand and expenses,
fifty-fifty.
511
00:37:04,305 --> 00:37:07,808
Remember? You used to have a good
memory. Whatever happened to it?
512
00:37:07,809 --> 00:37:10,227
- I didn't collect.
- Not the 10 grand.
513
00:37:10,228 --> 00:37:14,356
I can give you a tip. You tell Whit where
we are, he might slip you a sawbuck.
514
00:37:14,357 --> 00:37:15,954
KATHIE: Jeff.
515
00:37:16,025 --> 00:37:18,068
He isn't going to
tell Whit anything.
516
00:37:18,069 --> 00:37:22,656
Sure not. You just come up with that
40 grand, and we're all pals again.
517
00:37:22,657 --> 00:37:26,493
- I might even cut you in for a piece of it.
- There isn't any 40 grand.
518
00:37:26,494 --> 00:37:28,495
Of course Whit's broad-minded.
519
00:37:28,496 --> 00:37:30,914
He don't care about a few
slugs in the stomach...
520
00:37:30,915 --> 00:37:33,217
or the 40 grand the
dame went off with...
521
00:37:33,376 --> 00:37:36,225
or even Jeff pretending
he fell down on the job.
522
00:37:36,588 --> 00:37:40,924
But you and Jeff ganging up
together, he might not like that.
523
00:37:40,925 --> 00:37:43,273
Tell him, Kathie.
524
00:37:43,720 --> 00:37:45,596
Sure, I shot him.
525
00:37:45,597 --> 00:37:47,570
I'm not sorry about that.
526
00:37:47,849 --> 00:37:49,571
But I didn't take his money.
527
00:37:50,268 --> 00:37:52,936
- Beat it.
- FISHER: Look at all the angles.
528
00:37:52,937 --> 00:37:55,689
You know Whit and you know
how far he can reach.
529
00:37:55,690 --> 00:37:59,401
So just pay me off and
I'm quiet, but use cash.
530
00:37:59,402 --> 00:38:03,752
Don't try to pay me off with pitch handed
to you by this cheap piece of baggage.
531
00:38:04,699 --> 00:38:06,876
I was hoping you'd do this.
532

(GUNSHOT)
533
00:38:44,781 --> 00:38:47,300
- JEFF: You didn't have to kill him.
- Yes, I did.
534
00:38:47,784 --> 00:38:51,453
You wouldn't have killed him. You would've
beaten him up and thrown him out.
535
00:38:51,454 --> 00:38:54,553
- You didn't have to do it.
- You wouldn't have killed him.
536
00:38:55,625 --> 00:38:58,769
He'd have been against
us, gone to Whit.
537

(CAR ENGINE STARTS)
538
00:39:36,708 --> 00:39:38,885
I buried him up there.
539
00:39:39,002 --> 00:39:41,628
I wasn't sorry for
him or sore at her.
540
00:39:41,629 --> 00:39:43,476
I wasn't anything.
541
00:39:44,716 --> 00:39:47,769
- Did you ever see her again?
- No.
542
00:39:48,386 --> 00:39:50,529
Did you want to?
543
00:39:51,264 --> 00:39:53,111
No.
544
00:40:02,859 --> 00:40:04,985
JEFF: Well, I told you
it wasn't a nice story.
545
00:40:04,986 --> 00:40:07,630
And I said once that whatever
had happened was done.
546
00:40:07,697 --> 00:40:10,198
Yeah, but you should've
known about it long ago.
547
00:40:10,199 --> 00:40:12,784
It's all right. I understand.
548
00:40:12,785 --> 00:40:14,578
And it's all past.
549
00:40:14,579 --> 00:40:16,204
Maybe it isn't.
550
00:40:16,205 --> 00:40:18,582
- What'll happen?
- I don't know.
551
00:40:18,583 --> 00:40:21,501
It's been a long time. I don't
know how much he knows.
552
00:40:21,502 --> 00:40:22,920
Don't go, Jeff.
553
00:40:22,921 --> 00:40:27,174
I've got to. I'm tired of running.
I gotta clean this up some way.
554
00:40:27,175 --> 00:40:29,176
Just one thing, Ann.
555
00:40:29,177 --> 00:40:30,761
Do you want me to come back?
556
00:40:30,762 --> 00:40:32,609
Of course.
557
00:40:38,853 --> 00:40:40,951
Put that in your pocket.
558

JOE: Look who's here.
559
00:41:19,686 --> 00:41:22,062
Hello, Markham. Glad
to see you again.
560
00:41:22,063 --> 00:41:24,147
JEFF:
I always wondered if you missed me.
561
00:41:24,148 --> 00:41:26,733
Ah. Same guy. Time-proof,
weatherproof.
562
00:41:26,734 --> 00:41:29,128
- Cigarette?
- Smoking.
563
00:41:34,283 --> 00:41:36,201
- Thanks. Had breakfast?
- No.
564
00:41:36,202 --> 00:41:38,620
Joe, tell the boy we have a guest.
565
00:41:38,621 --> 00:41:41,790
Say, I understand you're operating
a little gasoline station.
566
00:41:41,791 --> 00:41:44,543
- You say it like it's hard to understand.
- Well, it is.
567
00:41:44,544 --> 00:41:48,088
It's very simple. I sell gasoline.
I make a small profit.
568
00:41:48,089 --> 00:41:51,008
With that I buy groceries,
the grocer makes a profit.
569
00:41:51,009 --> 00:41:54,594
They call it earning a living.
You may have heard of it somewhere.
570
00:41:54,595 --> 00:41:57,889
I may have, but it wasn't from you.
571
00:41:57,890 --> 00:42:00,684
- I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, Whit.
- My feelings?
572
00:42:00,685 --> 00:42:04,354
Ten years ago, I hid them somewhere
and I haven't been able to find them.
573
00:42:04,355 --> 00:42:06,064
JOE: Where did you look?
574
00:42:06,065 --> 00:42:08,242
WHIT: In my pocketbook.
575
00:42:09,485 --> 00:42:10,861
Nice, isn't it?
576
00:42:10,862 --> 00:42:13,836
Yeah, it must have set
you back a few shells.
577
00:42:14,574 --> 00:42:17,075
Always worrying about my expenses.
578
00:42:17,076 --> 00:42:19,202
It's a nice view.
Am I here to admire it?
579
00:42:19,203 --> 00:42:21,096
Not exactly.
580
00:42:21,414 --> 00:42:23,165
I need your help.
581
00:42:23,166 --> 00:42:24,708
Like old times.
582
00:42:24,709 --> 00:42:27,137
I always liked you.
583
00:42:27,336 --> 00:42:31,006
You liked me because you could use me.
You could use me because I was smart.
584
00:42:31,007 --> 00:42:33,216
I'm not smart anymore.
I run a gas station.
585
00:42:33,217 --> 00:42:35,010
I like the view.
586
00:42:35,011 --> 00:42:36,887
Can you still listen?
587
00:42:36,888 --> 00:42:38,638
I can hear.
588
00:42:38,639 --> 00:42:40,599
Well, you told me
about your business.
589
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,603
Well, mine is a little more precarious,
and I earn considerably more.
590
00:42:44,604 --> 00:42:46,021
So I've heard.
591
00:42:46,022 --> 00:42:47,856
So has the government.
592
00:42:47,857 --> 00:42:50,942
Well, this may sound ridiculous,
but you could pay them.
593
00:42:50,943 --> 00:42:54,029
- That would be against my nature.
- All right, forget I said it.
594
00:42:54,030 --> 00:42:58,617
So I collaborated with a certain
man who understands these things.
595
00:42:58,618 --> 00:43:00,994
He saved me quite a bit
of money, $1 million.
596
00:43:00,995 --> 00:43:05,624
I didn't particularly trust him, so
I paid him well, but he's unhappy.
597
00:43:05,625 --> 00:43:08,543
- He wants more money.
- Well, he saved you a lot.
598
00:43:08,544 --> 00:43:12,422
Oh, I appreciate it. I always
remember what any man did for me.
599
00:43:12,423 --> 00:43:13,840
Or didn't.
600
00:43:13,841 --> 00:43:17,969
Perhaps. The point is that
now he wants 200,000.
601
00:43:17,970 --> 00:43:21,932
Or he could get 10 percent of the million
from the government, if he turns you in.
602
00:43:21,933 --> 00:43:23,892
You're up on these things.
603
00:43:23,893 --> 00:43:27,729
- Has he got anything to trade?
- Well, he has the income tax records.
604
00:43:27,730 --> 00:43:31,900
But I don't see why I should buy them
when I might persuade you to get them.
605
00:43:31,901 --> 00:43:33,777
- Then I'd have them.
- I know.
606
00:43:33,778 --> 00:43:35,403
But I can trust you.
607
00:43:35,404 --> 00:43:37,948
You know, I don't think
you can trust anybody.
608
00:43:37,949 --> 00:43:40,450
You better go in there
and get them yourself.
609
00:43:40,451 --> 00:43:43,078
- I'd rather you did it.
- I pass.
610
00:43:43,079 --> 00:43:44,496
You don't like it?
611
00:43:44,497 --> 00:43:47,207
No, I just can't get
away from my business.
612
00:43:47,208 --> 00:43:49,668
Well, it's a nice view.
613
00:43:49,669 --> 00:43:51,767
Let's have some breakfast.
614
00:43:58,678 --> 00:44:01,151

You remember Kathie, don't you?
615
00:44:03,391 --> 00:44:05,659
Yeah, I remember Kathie.
616
00:44:07,687 --> 00:44:09,354
Sit down.
617
00:44:09,355 --> 00:44:12,190
Kathie's back in the fold now.
618
00:44:12,191 --> 00:44:15,694
- You're back in the fold too, Jeff.
- I see what you mean.
619
00:44:15,695 --> 00:44:18,113
You see, Jeff, you
owe me something.
620
00:44:18,114 --> 00:44:20,633
You'll never be happy until
you square yourself.
621
00:44:20,741 --> 00:44:23,669
Did you bare your
heart to him, Kathie?
622
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:25,888
I couldn't help it, Jeff.
623
00:44:27,331 --> 00:44:30,250
- Well, that settles things.
- Does it?
624
00:44:30,251 --> 00:44:32,085
You're working for me.
625
00:44:32,086 --> 00:44:34,838
This man I told you about,
his name is Leonard Eels...
626
00:44:34,839 --> 00:44:36,798
but, uh, you won't
go to him directly.
627
00:44:36,799 --> 00:44:39,342
He has a secretary that
he's rather fond of.
628
00:44:39,343 --> 00:44:42,387
Her name is Meta Carson.
You'll find her charming.
629
00:44:42,388 --> 00:44:44,531
She may even find you charming.
630
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,017
I understand that women have.
631
00:44:47,018 --> 00:44:49,412
She'll tell you how it's lined up.
632
00:44:50,354 --> 00:44:53,282
You, uh, know San
Francisco, don't you?
633
00:44:54,025 --> 00:44:56,443
Yeah, I was there once at a party.
634
00:44:56,444 --> 00:44:59,213
- WHIT: Then you get around.
- Like the monkey and the weasel.
635
00:45:00,031 --> 00:45:02,550
We'll put you on a
train this afternoon.
636
00:45:03,034 --> 00:45:07,305
- Right now, I'd like to get some sleep.
- WHIT: Find Joe. He'll show you to your room.
637
00:45:07,997 --> 00:45:10,665
And don't start worrying.
638
00:45:10,666 --> 00:45:12,639
Why should I?

(DOORKNOB CLICKING)
640
00:45:34,732 --> 00:45:38,536
Jeff, I had to come back.
What else could I do?
641
00:45:38,945 --> 00:45:41,196
You can never help
anything, can you?

You're like a leaf that the wind
blows from one gutter to another.

You can't help anything
you do, even murder.
644
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,332
- You can't say it was that.
- I can say one thing. I buried him.
645
00:45:52,333 --> 00:45:55,762
- What did you tell him? About us?
- Uh...
646
00:45:57,838 --> 00:46:01,800
- But you couldn't help it, could you?
- He looked right into me and he knew it.
647
00:46:01,801 --> 00:46:03,843
- How much?
- What, Jeff?
648
00:46:03,844 --> 00:46:06,263
About Fisher. Did he look
into you for that too?
649
00:46:06,264 --> 00:46:08,441
No, I didn't tell that.
650
00:46:09,392 --> 00:46:11,142
- Don't lie to me.
- I didn't.
651
00:46:11,143 --> 00:46:14,187
I wouldn't tell him that.
I wouldn't tell anyone that.
652
00:46:14,188 --> 00:46:16,439
I swear it, Jeff. Believe me.
653

Sure. Sure, I believe you.
654
00:46:18,609 --> 00:46:20,610
I didn't know what to do.
655
00:46:20,611 --> 00:46:23,446
I was always afraid of him
and afraid of what I'd done.

I couldn't live that way
anymore. I couldn't stand it.

prayed you'd understand.

Can you understand?

00:46:33,541 --> 00:46:35,343
You prayed, Kathie?
661
00:46:35,376 --> 00:46:37,644
Can't you even feel sorry for me?
662

- I'm not going to try.
- Jeff...

Really? Would you
like a gin and tonic?

- That'd be nice.
- You may have whiskey, if you like.

678
00:48:18,062 --> 00:48:20,688
I used to live in one in
New York that was old.
679
00:48:20,689 --> 00:48:22,357
It wasn't very amusing.
680
00:48:22,358 --> 00:48:26,027
- I've never been to New York.
- You take a trip there sometime.
681
00:48:26,028 --> 00:48:28,947
You'll see one reason why
I'm in San Francisco.
682
00:48:28,948 --> 00:48:30,698
Whit said you'd tell me the other.
683
00:48:30,699 --> 00:48:34,911
You know, you're rather charming yourself,
but I'm afraid I don't quite understand you.
684
00:48:34,912 --> 00:48:37,038
If you'll drop this
Junior League patter...
685
00:48:37,039 --> 00:48:39,762
we may get the conversation
down where it belongs.
686
00:48:40,084 --> 00:48:43,336
- You worried about something?
- I don't know. Should I be?
687
00:48:43,337 --> 00:48:47,507
- Not if you do what you're told.
- That's why I'm here. I do what I'm told.
688
00:48:47,508 --> 00:48:51,553
People trust me. Whit even
trusts me twice. Do you?
689
00:48:51,554 --> 00:48:54,152
Just as far as I have to.
690
00:48:54,515 --> 00:48:57,851
Can you find your way
to 114 Fulton Street?
691
00:48:57,852 --> 00:48:59,853
- When?
- Tonight.
692
00:48:59,854 --> 00:49:03,356
I'll be there in the apartment of
an attorney named Leonard Eels.
693
00:49:03,357 --> 00:49:06,025
You can call for me
at 8 and look around.
694
00:49:06,026 --> 00:49:09,362
I can depend on that.
We'll leave together.
695
00:49:09,363 --> 00:49:11,865
In a day or so, he'll
take some papers home.
696
00:49:11,866 --> 00:49:13,366
I'll let you know.
697
00:49:13,367 --> 00:49:15,702
Then you get them.
He won't be there.
698
00:49:15,703 --> 00:49:17,203
Where will he be?
699
00:49:17,204 --> 00:49:20,665
With me. I'm his secretary.
700
00:49:20,666 --> 00:49:24,085
- Well, it sounds simple enough.
- It is.
701
00:49:24,086 --> 00:49:27,356
- Like two and two make four.
- That's right.
702
00:49:31,385 --> 00:49:35,280
Just remember, I'm coming out of
this in one piece, Miss Carson.
703
00:49:35,473 --> 00:49:39,058
Do you always go around leaving your
fingerprints on a girl's shoulder?
704
00:49:39,059 --> 00:49:44,115
Not that I mind particularly.
You've got nice strong hands.
705
00:49:59,914 --> 00:50:01,706
- Jeff.
- Petey, how are you?
706
00:50:01,707 --> 00:50:03,750
Where you been? You
marry an honest dame?
707
00:50:03,751 --> 00:50:07,420
- I went in the gasoline business.
- But you're looking for me now, ain't you?
708
00:50:07,421 --> 00:50:10,975
I went out of business. Come on,
let's take a ride in your hack.
709
00:50:14,845 --> 00:50:17,096
Buddy, you look like
you're in trouble.
710
00:50:17,097 --> 00:50:20,276
- Why?
- Because you don't act like it.
711
00:50:20,518 --> 00:50:23,071
I think I'm in a frame.
712
00:50:23,312 --> 00:50:25,188
Don't sound like you.
713
00:50:25,189 --> 00:50:27,732
I don't know. All I
can see is the frame.
714
00:50:27,733 --> 00:50:30,068
I'm going in there now
to look at the picture.
715
00:50:30,069 --> 00:50:33,873

- You don't have to tell me nothing.

722
00:51:20,411 --> 00:51:23,371
I always wanted my favorite
cousin to meet my favorite boss.
723
00:51:23,372 --> 00:51:25,373
- LEONARD: Apple martini?
- Thanks.
724
00:51:25,374 --> 00:51:28,501
Meta talked about you like you're
the ninth wonder of the world.
725
00:51:28,502 --> 00:51:30,753
- She skipped one.
- Meta must be the eighth.

All women are wonders because they
reduce all men to the obvious.
727

728
00:51:37,845 --> 00:51:40,013
So nice here, I hate to go.
729
00:51:40,014 --> 00:51:42,942
Don't then. Why don't you
both stay and have dinner?
730
00:51:43,100 --> 00:51:44,517
Yes, why don't we?
731
00:51:44,518 --> 00:51:47,604
We can't, Jeffrey. We promised
the Bigelows, remember?
732
00:51:47,605 --> 00:51:49,897
JEFF: Oh, call them up.
We can see them anytime.
733
00:51:49,898 --> 00:51:52,066
We can't, Jeffrey.
I'm sorry, Leonard.
734
00:51:52,067 --> 00:51:55,120
Some other time. How long will
you be in town, Mr. Bailey?
735
00:51:55,529 --> 00:51:58,448
- I don't really know.
- LEONARD: You're on business?
736
00:51:58,449 --> 00:52:01,753
- You might call it that.
- Where are you from? The South?
737
00:52:02,286 --> 00:52:06,414
- No. Tahoe.
- We must go, Jeff.
738
00:52:06,415 --> 00:52:08,388
JEFF: All right.
739
00:52:11,253 --> 00:52:14,339
Your, uh, cousin is a
very charming young lady.
740
00:52:14,340 --> 00:52:18,611
No, he isn't. His name is Norman and
he's a bookmaker in Cleveland, Ohio.
741
00:52:20,929 --> 00:52:23,556
- Where did you say you were from?
- Tahoe...
742
00:52:23,557 --> 00:52:26,861
where we worry as much about
the income tax as anybody.
743
00:52:28,270 --> 00:52:30,063
Frankly, you don't make sense.
744
00:52:30,064 --> 00:52:32,440
Neither does my being her cousin...
745
00:52:32,441 --> 00:52:34,859
or my being brought up here...
746
00:52:34,860 --> 00:52:36,986
to, uh, leave my
fingerprints around.
747
00:52:36,987 --> 00:52:39,030
On the other hand, maybe it does.
748
00:52:39,031 --> 00:52:42,200
You know, it could be that I'm the
patsy, and you're on the spot.
749
00:52:42,201 --> 00:52:44,869
- META: Coming, Jeff?
- Right away.
750
00:52:44,870 --> 00:52:47,969
Keep the martinis
dry, I'll be back.
751

I'm glad you could
come, both of you.
752
00:52:55,464 --> 00:52:57,882
- Mr. Eels, you make a great martini.
- Thank you.
753
00:52:57,883 --> 00:52:59,300
- Good night.
- Good night.
754
00:52:59,301 --> 00:53:01,979
- Good night, Leonard.
- Good night.
755
00:53:08,519 --> 00:53:11,521
For a man who appears to be
clever, you can act like an idiot.
756
00:53:11,522 --> 00:53:14,917
That's one way to be
clever: Look like an idiot.
757
00:53:15,984 --> 00:53:19,195
He looked like an underweight
ghost. What did you say to him?
758
00:53:19,196 --> 00:53:21,197
I told him he made a great martini.
759
00:53:21,198 --> 00:53:23,408
- You are an idiot.
- So is he.
760
00:53:23,409 --> 00:53:27,134

Doesn't your conscience bother
you, crossing a nice guy like that?
763
00:53:42,386 --> 00:53:44,345
Maybe he isn't such a nice guy.
764
00:53:44,346 --> 00:53:46,489
Maybe he crosses people too.
765
00:53:53,355 --> 00:53:56,232
- Do I go alone?
- No, you go back to your hotel and wait.
766
00:53:56,233 --> 00:53:58,456
Yes, ma'am.
767
00:54:02,072 --> 00:54:06,242
- Nice.
- Awfully cold around the heart. Let's go.
768
00:54:06,243 --> 00:54:07,869
Hold it.
769
00:54:07,870 --> 00:54:10,844

- I couldn't help it, Jeff.

They made me sign it.
I swear I couldn't help it.

They said they'd find the body
and tell the police I killed him.

tell them about Fisher.

I couldn't help myself.
I was caught too.

against each other now.

- No. We can break out of it.

All we need is the briefcase.
845
01:03:00,610 --> 01:03:04,363
Then we've got them, Jeff. We can
get anything we want from them.
846
01:03:04,364 --> 01:03:06,240
I'd like that affidavit you signed.
847
01:03:06,241 --> 01:03:08,993
We can get it. It's
in Eels' office safe.
848
01:03:08,994 --> 01:03:12,538
We can make Meta get it.
We can make them do anything.

Sure.

01:03:14,249 --> 01:03:15,708
Oh, Jeff...
851
01:03:15,709 --> 01:03:18,127
You ought to have killed
me for what I did.
852
01:03:18,128 --> 01:03:21,297
- There's time.
- No. You won't.
853
01:03:21,298 --> 01:03:23,382
I've never stopped loving you.
854
01:03:23,383 --> 01:03:26,593
I was afraid and no good,
but I never stopped...

nothing had happened.

Certainly.

in the apartment and he wasn't there.

- Eels?
- Yes, Eels. He wasn't there.

I was there. And the way I
left him, he didn't walk away.

- We may do that.

Sure. Of course, the government may
just pat Whit on the back and say:

"Go on home. We got all the dough we need.
We'll never miss your million dollars."

also get Eels' body...

Eels' safe when she took the files out.

I killed a guy named Jack Fisher.

I only buried him.

by and see him hurt you.
1004
01:15:30,192 --> 01:15:32,819
- If he comes back here...
- What'll you do?
1005
01:15:32,820 --> 01:15:35,613
- You won't go to the police.
- I don't know what I'll do.
1006
01:15:35,614 --> 01:15:37,115
No, Jimmy.
1007
01:15:37,116 --> 01:15:40,215
Do you expect me to
help him get away?
1008
01:15:41,037 --> 01:15:42,509
Jim.
1009
01:15:49,837 --> 01:15:52,435
JOE: He can read your lips.
1010
01:15:54,341 --> 01:15:56,843
Mr. Sterling is fishing.
1011
01:15:56,844 --> 01:15:59,512
No. In the high mountains.
1012
01:15:59,513 --> 01:16:02,015
Tell Jeff we're sending for him.
1013
01:16:02,016 --> 01:16:04,489
Where can we reach you?
1014
01:16:12,568 --> 01:16:16,293
Joe will find you at the
station when we have word.
1015
01:16:26,832 --> 01:16:29,292
I'm not so sure this
is a bright idea.
1016
01:16:29,293 --> 01:16:32,597
You think of a brighter one on
the way, come back with it.
1017
01:17:59,216 --> 01:18:01,189
(GUNSHOT)
1018
01:18:21,780 --> 01:18:24,365
He follow you from Tahoe?
1019
01:18:24,366 --> 01:18:26,618
Who'd you see? Sterling?
1020
01:18:26,619 --> 01:18:28,717
Kathie?
1021
01:18:32,458 --> 01:18:35,056
Cute kids, aren't they?
1022
01:19:04,531 --> 01:19:07,129
What are you scared about?
1023
01:19:07,368 --> 01:19:12,048
Joe isn't coming back. He got
careless and fell in the river.
1024
01:19:12,915 --> 01:19:16,209
Didn't you hear what I said?
Joe's dead, Kathie.
1025
01:19:16,210 --> 01:19:19,229
Can't you find some tears for him?
1026
01:19:19,838 --> 01:19:23,174
- Come on.
- What are you gonna do?
1027
01:19:23,175 --> 01:19:25,426
Talk to Whit. Don't
you think I should?
1028
01:19:25,427 --> 01:19:29,138
Yes, of course you should. He wants
to see you. He's waiting for you.
1029
01:19:29,139 --> 01:19:32,100
With his fishing rod? You
told the kid he was fishing.
1030
01:19:32,101 --> 01:19:34,852
He, uh, came back
late this afternoon.
1031
01:19:34,853 --> 01:19:37,480
I'll bet he's pacing up and
down, worrying about Joe.
1032
01:19:37,481 --> 01:19:42,318
- You think I sent Joe?
- Oh, you're wonderful, Kathie.
1033
01:19:42,319 --> 01:19:46,406
- All right. Where is the gentleman?
- Downstairs. In the library, I think.
1034
01:19:46,407 --> 01:19:49,284
Jeff, don't let him trick you.
1035
01:19:49,285 --> 01:19:51,911
He'll pay anything you ask.
He'll do anything you ask.
1036
01:19:51,912 --> 01:19:54,886
Sure he will. Anything.
1037
01:19:59,128 --> 01:20:02,297
If only there was some
way about Fisher.
1038
01:20:02,298 --> 01:20:04,396
There is.
1039
01:20:14,685 --> 01:20:16,237
(FOOTSTEPS)
1040
01:20:16,478 --> 01:20:19,564
Well, you getting things in
shape for the treasury boys?
1041
01:20:19,565 --> 01:20:23,460
Hello, Jeff. I've been
sort of expecting you.
1042
01:20:23,819 --> 01:20:27,363
Well, let's get down to business.
Start all over again, right?
1043
01:20:27,364 --> 01:20:31,117
- You have some papers of mine.
- All right, you take the frame off me.
1044
01:20:31,118 --> 01:20:33,637
You pin the Eels murder on Joe.
1045
01:20:34,955 --> 01:20:37,599
Sure. Sure.
1046
01:20:37,708 --> 01:20:40,668
I get a modest settlement. Say...
1047
01:20:40,669 --> 01:20:42,670
Oh, say 50,000.
1048
01:20:42,671 --> 01:20:46,396
That should be enough for me to
spend my waning years in Mazatlán.
1049
01:20:46,675 --> 01:20:49,844
Not Acapulco because I'd keep
thinking about you, Kathie.
1050
01:20:49,845 --> 01:20:52,847
Up there in the women's
prison in Tehachapi.
1051
01:20:52,848 --> 01:20:56,243
It won't be too bad. Hills all
around you, plenty of sun.
1052
01:20:57,519 --> 01:20:59,645
You make me nervous.
1053
01:20:59,646 --> 01:21:04,067
You'll be happier if you let the cops
have her. That's what you'll have to do.
1054
01:21:04,068 --> 01:21:08,196
Somebody's gotta take the rap for
Fisher's murder. It's not gonna be me.
1055
01:21:08,197 --> 01:21:10,198
Wait a minute.
1056
01:21:10,199 --> 01:21:13,719
- I'm not framing any woman.
- JEFF: When did you reform?
1057
01:21:13,869 --> 01:21:16,718
I wouldn't try it, Whit.
You're out of shape.
1058
01:21:16,830 --> 01:21:20,375
- Besides, it's not a frame. She shot him.
- He was gonna kill you.
1059
01:21:20,376 --> 01:21:24,462
See, Whit? Self-defense. A cinch to beat.
She might not even have to do time.
1060
01:21:24,463 --> 01:21:28,609
- I'll say you killed him. They'll believe me.
- Do you believe her?
1061
01:21:30,594 --> 01:21:32,817
Go on, Kathie, tell him about Joe.
1062
01:21:32,888 --> 01:21:35,014
What about Joe? Where is he?
1063
01:21:35,015 --> 01:21:37,934
Last time I saw him, he was
in the East Walker River.
1064
01:21:37,935 --> 01:21:41,660
I didn't send him after Jeff.
It was his own idea.
1065
01:21:43,982 --> 01:21:46,943
- Did you kill him?
- He slipped and fell.
1066
01:21:46,944 --> 01:21:50,696
When I got there, it was too
late. That's a mean river.
1067
01:21:50,697 --> 01:21:52,115
WHIT: He was trailing you?
1068
01:21:52,116 --> 01:21:54,700
Well, you don't go fishing
with a .45 in your hand.
1069
01:21:54,701 --> 01:21:57,453
But stop worrying about it.
It makes everything simple.
1070
01:21:57,454 --> 01:22:01,374
A dead man? Fish him out. Stick
a note in his pocket. Suicide.
1071
01:22:01,375 --> 01:22:04,627
He couldn't stand living
with what he had done.
1072
01:22:04,628 --> 01:22:08,148
Don't look so stricken, Whit.
You'll get over it. I did.
1073
01:22:08,173 --> 01:22:11,773
But you talk it out if you want
to. I'll be waiting in there.
1074
01:22:11,802 --> 01:22:13,678
Oh, one thing, Kathie:
1075
01:22:13,679 --> 01:22:17,014
Did it take much persuasion to
make you say I killed Fisher?
1076
01:22:17,015 --> 01:22:21,227
Come on. Feed my ego.
Tell me he beat you.
1077
01:22:21,228 --> 01:22:24,577
Tell me he had to drag
every word out of you.
1078
01:22:24,857 --> 01:22:28,818
- Well, that's the way it is.
- You said you were going.
1079
01:22:28,819 --> 01:22:30,871
Get out.
1080
01:22:47,212 --> 01:22:50,131
You dirty little phony.
Go on, lie some more.
1081
01:22:50,132 --> 01:22:52,842
Tell me how you handled things
for me in San Francisco.
1082
01:22:52,843 --> 01:22:55,052
Tell me it was all Joe's
idea. Go on, Kathie.
1083
01:22:55,053 --> 01:22:57,847
Show me how you're gonna
squirm your way out this time.
1084
01:22:57,848 --> 01:23:00,850
- Listen...
- What a sucker you must think I am.
1085
01:23:00,851 --> 01:23:04,520
I took you back when you came
whimpering and crawling.
1086
01:23:04,521 --> 01:23:07,440
I should have kicked your teeth in.
1087
01:23:07,441 --> 01:23:10,693
No, I'm not going to.
1088
01:23:10,694 --> 01:23:14,947
Not now, Kathie. We'll let
the law push you around.
1089
01:23:14,948 --> 01:23:16,866
- You can't.
- You're wrong.
1090
01:23:16,867 --> 01:23:19,076
You're gonna take the
rap and play along.
1091
01:23:19,077 --> 01:23:21,996
You're gonna make every
exact move I tell you.
1092
01:23:21,997 --> 01:23:24,499
If you don't, I'll kill you.
1093
01:23:24,500 --> 01:23:27,335
And I'll promise you one
thing: It won't be quick.
1094
01:23:27,336 --> 01:23:29,420
I'll break you first.
1095
01:23:29,421 --> 01:23:33,466
You won't be able to answer a phone or
open a door without thinking, "This is it."
1096
01:23:33,467 --> 01:23:37,303
And when it comes,
it still won't be quick.
1097
01:23:37,304 --> 01:23:39,527
And it won't be pretty.
1098
01:23:40,724 --> 01:23:43,527
You can take your choice.
1099
01:23:43,936 --> 01:23:45,863
KATHIE: Whit.
1100
01:24:04,831 --> 01:24:08,334
I have to go to Reno for
your money. Where's the file?
1101
01:24:08,335 --> 01:24:10,933
JEFF: It'll be mailed to you.
1102
01:24:11,129 --> 01:24:14,353
I crossed you once. I know better
than to try it a second time.
1103
01:24:15,217 --> 01:24:18,010
I've got a reason for
wanting to be let alone.
1104
01:24:18,011 --> 01:24:20,814
You'll get the file,
after I'm out of reach.
1105
01:24:22,015 --> 01:24:24,934
Well, if that's the
way it has to be.
1106
01:24:24,935 --> 01:24:28,187
While you're in Reno, find a pilot
who can keep his mouth shut.
1107
01:24:28,188 --> 01:24:31,691
Tell him to set his plane down in
the desert where he won't be seen.
1108
01:24:31,692 --> 01:24:33,734
Make it about dawn.
1109
01:24:33,735 --> 01:24:36,696
And cheer up, Kathie.
You'll get out of it all right.
1110
01:24:36,697 --> 01:24:39,170
You always have.
1111
01:25:27,956 --> 01:25:30,458
- They say you killed a man.
- Do you believe them?
1112
01:25:30,459 --> 01:25:34,503
- Not until you tell me.
- You believe everything I say, don't you?
1113
01:25:34,504 --> 01:25:37,506
Everything you say
to me, I believe.
1114
01:25:37,507 --> 01:25:40,310
I don't know why I do this.
1115
01:25:40,636 --> 01:25:43,804
I don't know why I let you come
back into my life. Why I don't...
1116
01:25:43,805 --> 01:25:47,183
slap your face and send
you home. I don't know.
1117
01:25:47,184 --> 01:25:50,436
- Because you said you'd come back.
- But not like this.
1118
01:25:50,437 --> 01:25:53,707
- You didn't kill him, did you?
- No.
1119
01:25:54,316 --> 01:25:56,914
You know, I had to come back.
1120
01:26:00,989 --> 01:26:05,010
- Take me with you, Jeff.
- I have to play this alone.
1121
01:26:05,744 --> 01:26:09,622
- You've seen her again?
- Yeah, I saw her.
1122
01:26:09,623 --> 01:26:13,268
- Was it the same?
- I saw her, and it was nothing.
1123
01:26:14,294 --> 01:26:17,171
She can't be all bad. No one is.
1124
01:26:17,172 --> 01:26:19,840
Well, she comes the closest.
1125
01:26:19,841 --> 01:26:22,843
- Are you going to see her again?
- Tonight, for the last time.
1126
01:26:22,844 --> 01:26:25,930
Then look at her.
And look at yourself.
1127
01:26:25,931 --> 01:26:31,237
And be very sure that there isn't
even a little bit of love left for her.
1128
01:26:31,978 --> 01:26:36,691
Then when you find out and you
know it once and forever...
1129
01:26:36,692 --> 01:26:38,693
send for me.
1130
01:26:38,694 --> 01:26:42,498
I don't have to find out.
I know it now.
1131
01:26:44,324 --> 01:26:48,119
- That's all I wanted to hear.
- You know, maybe I was wrong...
1132
01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:51,580
and luck is like love. You have
to go all the way to find it.
1133
01:26:51,581 --> 01:26:53,666
You do to keep it.
1134
01:26:53,667 --> 01:26:56,627
You better go. Did the
kid do what I told him?
1135
01:26:56,628 --> 01:26:59,672
They're following him south,
the state police and all of them.
1136
01:26:59,673 --> 01:27:01,225
Good.
1137
01:27:02,217 --> 01:27:04,770
I can't go.
1138
01:27:24,322 --> 01:27:27,626
- You can put that away.
- JEFF: I can't think of a better place to put it.
1139
01:27:29,161 --> 01:27:32,538
- I just want to tell you something.
- Tell it.
1140
01:27:32,539 --> 01:27:34,307
I was going to kill you.
1141
01:27:34,416 --> 01:27:37,219
- Who isn't?
- Or tell the cops where you were.
1142
01:27:39,504 --> 01:27:41,181
I followed Ann tonight.
1143
01:27:42,007 --> 01:27:45,968
- What stopped you?
- Some things you said to her.
1144
01:27:45,969 --> 01:27:49,764
- You said were gonna tell me something.
- I grew up with her.
1145
01:27:49,765 --> 01:27:52,558
I've loved her ever since
I fixed her roller skates.
1146
01:27:52,559 --> 01:27:55,853
I don't know whether I'm good enough
for her, but I know you aren't.
1147
01:27:55,854 --> 01:27:59,106
That's one difference. The
other is that she loves me.
1148
01:27:59,107 --> 01:28:02,693
You told her you didn't know why you
let her back into your dirty life.
1149
01:28:02,694 --> 01:28:06,197
I don't know what got you where you
are or where it's gonna take you.
1150
01:28:06,198 --> 01:28:08,671
She's not going with it.
1151
01:28:09,993 --> 01:28:11,869
Why don't you say it to the law.
1152
01:28:11,870 --> 01:28:15,390
Then all the rest of your life
you can tell her how you did it.
1153
01:29:01,920 --> 01:29:05,394
KATHIE: You can't make deals
with a dead man, Jeff.
1154
01:29:05,882 --> 01:29:08,105
No, you can't.
1155
01:29:14,349 --> 01:29:17,309
- Let's get out of here.
- There's someplace left to go?
1156
01:29:17,310 --> 01:29:20,955
- I think so.
- You're running the show now?
1157
01:29:24,484 --> 01:29:26,752
Do you mind, Jeff?
1158
01:29:28,864 --> 01:29:33,534
Remember the mountains? Higher than
these and always snow on them.
1159
01:29:33,535 --> 01:29:37,663
- We should have stayed there.
- I'm trying to remember something else.
1160
01:29:37,664 --> 01:29:40,207
I never told you I was
anything but what I am.
1161
01:29:40,208 --> 01:29:42,501
You just wanted to imagine I was.
1162
01:29:42,502 --> 01:29:46,005
That's why I left you.
Now we're back to stay.
1163
01:29:46,006 --> 01:29:49,884
- And I have nothing to say about it?
- Well, have you?
1164
01:29:49,885 --> 01:29:53,721
Whit's dead. A bundle of
papers isn't any good.
1165
01:29:53,722 --> 01:29:57,182
If Joe was around, you could
use him, but Joe's dead too.
1166
01:29:57,183 --> 01:29:59,643
So, what are you gonna do
about Eels and Fisher?
1167
01:29:59,644 --> 01:30:02,187
For that matter, what are
you gonna do about this?
1168
01:30:02,188 --> 01:30:04,398
Someone has to take the blame.
1169
01:30:04,399 --> 01:30:08,954
You have nothing on me, but I'd make
a fine witness for the prosecution.
1170
01:30:10,030 --> 01:30:13,834
Don't you see? You've only
me to make deals with now.
1171
01:30:14,409 --> 01:30:17,383
- Well, build my gallows high, baby.
- No.
1172
01:30:17,871 --> 01:30:21,916
No, we're starting all over.
I wanna go back to Mexico.
1173
01:30:21,917 --> 01:30:25,002
I wanna walk out of the sun
again and find you waiting.
1174
01:30:25,003 --> 01:30:29,173
I wanna sit in the same moonlight and tell
you all the things I never told you...
1175
01:30:29,174 --> 01:30:33,093
until you don't hate me.
Until sometime you love again.
1176
01:30:33,094 --> 01:30:36,221
They'll always be looking for us.
They won't stop till we die.
1177
01:30:36,222 --> 01:30:39,822
I don't care. Just so
they find us together.
1178
01:30:40,685 --> 01:30:44,980
If you're thinking of anyone
else, don't. It wouldn't work.
1179
01:30:44,981 --> 01:30:47,483
You're no good for anyone but me.
1180
01:30:47,484 --> 01:30:49,661
You're no good and neither am I.
1181
01:30:49,986 --> 01:30:52,880
That's why we deserve each other.
1182
01:30:58,411 --> 01:31:00,454
Did he get the plane?
1183
01:31:00,455 --> 01:31:03,916
- Where is it?
- I'm running the show, don't forget.
1184
01:31:03,917 --> 01:31:06,210
I doubt you'll ever let me.
Where's the money?
1185
01:31:06,211 --> 01:31:10,436
- Upstairs.
- Better pack a couple of bags and get it.
1186
01:31:12,425 --> 01:31:16,195
- Put a few things in for me.
- I have.
1187
01:32:05,979 --> 01:32:07,187
Thanks.
1188
01:32:07,188 --> 01:32:08,489
(SPEAKS IN SPANISH)
1189
01:32:09,691 --> 01:32:12,460
Do you remember La Mar Azul?
1190
01:32:12,902 --> 01:32:16,071
If I remember, you were a very
clumsy flirt, but I liked that.
1191
01:32:16,072 --> 01:32:18,466
We owe it all to José Rodriguez.
1192
01:32:19,534 --> 01:32:23,259
I wonder if he'll ever know
what a bad guide he really was.
1193
01:32:24,039 --> 01:32:27,750
Jeff, we've been wrong a
lot and unlucky a long time.
1194
01:32:27,751 --> 01:32:30,600
I think we deserve a break.
1195
01:32:32,005 --> 01:32:33,881
We deserve each other.
1196
01:32:33,882 --> 01:32:35,183
(GLASS BREAKS)
1197
01:33:06,206 --> 01:33:08,349
KATHIE: Hurry, Jeff.
1198
01:33:20,011 --> 01:33:21,278
(ENGINE STALLING)
1199
01:33:25,850 --> 01:33:28,528
(ENGINE STARTS)
1200
01:33:53,795 --> 01:33:55,847
Dirty, double-crossing rat!
1201
01:33:58,007 --> 01:33:59,934
(GUNSHOT)
1202
01:34:42,886 --> 01:34:44,904
Sorry.
1203
01:34:48,516 --> 01:34:52,227
Too many people. Too much talk.
1204
01:34:52,228 --> 01:34:54,563
Maybe that's why I like this town.
1205
01:34:54,564 --> 01:34:57,913
Here, three people
are really a crowd.
1206
01:34:59,444 --> 01:35:02,571
Let's get in the car and
get away from them.
1207
01:35:02,572 --> 01:35:05,616
I won't talk to you, Ann.
I just wanna be with you.
1208
01:35:05,617 --> 01:35:09,046
Thanks, Jim, but I can't.
1209
01:35:18,880 --> 01:35:22,935
You can tell me. You knew
him better than I did.
1210
01:35:23,134 --> 01:35:26,028
Was he going away with her?
1211
01:35:27,096 --> 01:35:29,524
I have to know.
1212
01:35:31,226 --> 01:35:33,278
Was he going away with her?
1213
01:36:40,753 --> 01:36:43,021
