00:00Once upon a time, there were three beautiful girls.
00:05Two of them graduated from the police academy.
00:10The other graduated from a top school for models.
00:15And they each reaped the rewards of their exciting careers.
00:20But I took them away from all that, and now they work for me.
00:25My name is Charlie.
01:25My name is Charlie.
01:55Okay, all you swingin' singles. You know what those phones are for.
01:59Now just reach out and dial the table of your choice.
02:02You never know, you could be dancin', or maybe some romancin'.
02:25Do me a favor, don't tell your husband you're here.
02:35Don't tell my priest.
02:40If it's for me, I'm not in.
02:43You're just gonna sit there?
02:45Will you answer it?
02:46Why me?
02:47Well, you're the unattached lady in this group.
02:53May I speak to the lady with you?
02:56The lady with me?
02:57Yes, please.
03:00He wants to speak to you.
03:02Oh, come on, his voice sounds really divine.
03:09Yes?
03:10You're a very pretty girl.
03:12My, you are an old smoothie.
03:15I'm going to have to kill you.
03:28Did you hear me?
03:30I heard you, and it's not funny.
03:33What did he say?
03:35He said he was gonna kill me.
03:37What?
03:39Listen, I am not fond of phone cranks.
03:42I assure you, this is not a crank call.
03:46I really will have to kill you.
03:49Let's get out of here.
03:51Wait a minute.
03:52You're not gonna let some wacko ruin your last night in the big city.
03:55He said he was gonna kill me.
03:57But he's just some crazy person.
03:59I mean, I'm sure he doesn't mean it.
04:01Okay, you stay.
04:02I'm leaving.
04:23I'm so upset.
04:25I just am.
04:26He just told me.
04:27Oh, and I'll call you later.
04:28Okay.
04:31Yeah.
04:48You startled me.
04:50What do you want?
04:53Stay back.
04:54I don't like being crowded.
04:55Stay back, I said.
04:57I'll scream.
05:25Oh, no, Pat.
05:28Oh, God.
05:29Oh, no.
05:32Oh, no.
05:34Oh, he meant it.
05:36Oh, he really meant it.
05:39Oh.
05:41Oh.
05:53Mary, I just spoke to police lieutenant Fryer.
05:56The occupants of that car swear your friend deliberately ran in front of them.
06:01I don't care what he says.
06:03I mean, Lois would not and did not deliberately kill herself.
06:07And you think that the call you two received inside the club was connected to her death?
06:12Yes, I know it was.
06:14Mary, is there any possibility that the killer knew either you or Lois?
06:17Was there anything familiar about his voice?
06:20No, nothing.
06:22And neither you or Lois had ever been in that club before?
06:25No, Lois didn't even live here.
06:27She was only visiting me.
06:29Did you look at any of the other tables?
06:31Get a look at who was talking on the phone?
06:32No, because there wasn't time.
06:34Did Lois have any enemies?
06:36An ex-husband?
06:37A jealous admirer?
06:40Well, if she did, she never said anything to me about it.
06:43And she always told me everything.
06:45Well, it sounds to me like we have an unmotivated random killing by a psychopath.
06:49I agree.
06:50I don't agree.
06:51About the unmotivated part.
06:53However twisted and crazy it is, whoever killed her friend had his reason.
06:57We've just got to figure out what it is.
07:00Mary, if you heard this caller's voice again, do you think you might recognize it?
07:05After what happened, I don't think I'll ever forget it.
07:08Charlie, are you suggesting that we drop in at the hotline club?
07:12Seems the most logical course of action for the moment.
07:15Are you up to it, Mary?
07:18You mean you want me to act as bait?
07:21Mary, if you're not up to it...
07:23I'm not.
07:25But I will be when we get there.
07:29Somehow, I will be.
07:48Well, why don't I grab myself a seat at the bar and take in a bird's-eye view?
07:52Good idea.
07:54Why don't you and I take a table?
07:56Why not? We might get lucky.
07:59Try and relax.
08:01We're all here, and we'll protect you.
08:03I'm sorry. I'm just scared.
08:05Don't be scared.
08:07I'm not scared.
08:09I'm not scared.
08:11I'm not scared.
08:13I'm not scared.
08:15I'm sorry. I'm just scared.
08:17Look, he can't hurt you with a phone call. Let's go.
08:41You eating or drinking?
08:43You serve food?
08:45Not much. The cook's a fool.
08:47How's the bartender?
08:49He's the cook's idiot brother.
08:51Sounds like you love your work.
08:53I don't like anything about this place.
08:55So, what do you want?
08:57Martini dry.
08:59Okay. And you?
09:01Oh, uh, the same.
09:03Thank you.
09:13Thank you.
09:31Try and relax.
09:33Everything's gonna be all right.
09:35I know. I'm sorry.
09:37I don't mind that you guys just bathe.
09:39It's just that I'm scared.
09:41That's all right. You're allowed.
09:49Hello?
09:51I never thought your friend would show up here again.
09:55My friend?
09:57Yes. I never thought I'd see her here again.
09:59Really?
10:01Why did you think that?
10:03I just didn't think she would.
10:05Who are you?
10:07Why are you asking these questions?
10:09Why are you with her?
10:11I'm a friend of hers.
10:15Why are you two whispering to each other?
10:19Whispering?
10:23I can see what you're doing.
10:25What are you saying?
10:33You needn't look for me.
10:35You can't see me.
10:37But you can't see me.
10:39How nice for you.
10:41You don't like that, do you? Me seeing you.
10:43You not seeing me.
10:45You don't like that much.
10:47Not much? Why don't you step out and show yourself?
10:49You'll see me soon enough.
10:51You won't like it.
10:53But you'll see me.
10:55What's that supposed to mean?
10:57It means you'll meet me.
10:59Just once.
11:01It'll be the last face you see.
11:03Just before you die.
11:05Listen here, you freak.
11:07You don't have the guts to face me or anyone.
11:09What ugly words from such a pretty face.
11:11A perfect pretty face.
11:13I've got to get out of here.
11:15I've got to.
11:17Mary, wait.
11:35Mary.
11:37It's all right. It's all right. It's me.
11:39Oh, Mr. Bosley.
11:41What happened?
11:43He called again.
11:45Are you sure?
11:47I'm positive.
11:49I can't stay in there. I don't want to stay in there.
11:51Please don't make me stay in there.
11:53Okay, okay. It's going to be all right.
11:55Come on. Let me get you out of here.
11:57What the devil's going on?
11:59From the look on Kelly's face,
12:01I'd say she and Mary had a phone call.
12:03Wait, wait, wait.
12:05Let's stay here.
12:07Check out all the other tables.
12:09See who's on the phone.
12:11Don't worry about your friend.
12:13I have no interest in her.
12:15No interest in the least.
12:17It's you I want.
12:19Only you,
12:21pretty face.
12:33Mary.
12:55Listen here, you creep.
12:57Kelly, it's me.
12:59Are you all right?
13:01Oh, Chris, I'm fine.
13:03I take it from the sound of your voice,
13:05the phone call we saw you get was not friendly.
13:07Definitely not.
13:09Did our client identify the voice
13:11before she ran out of here?
13:13Yes, but I don't think we have to worry
13:15about her safety anymore.
13:17Why? What do you mean?
13:19Well, he says
13:21I'm going to be his next victim.
13:23You?
13:25So he says.
13:27I feel like I'm sitting on a keg of dynamite
13:29Listen, Kelly.
13:31While you were talking, we checked out
13:33all the other tables to see who was on the phone.
13:35Any candidates?
13:37Possibly two. What were the table numbers?
13:39Table 6 and 11.
13:41Both guys sitting alone
13:43on the phone while you were getting the call.
13:456 and 11?
13:55Kelly, maybe you should call
13:57those two tables, see if one of the voices
13:59sounds familiar.
14:07Okay, I'll call them.
14:09You watch their reactions.
14:15Hey, good evening, folks.
14:17It is now showtime, so the phones will be turned off.
14:19Now, direct from Vegas,
14:21where she was billed as hypnotist extraordinaire
14:23and unfortunately caught a slight case of laryngitis.
14:25But now she's here to surprise
14:27and entertain you.
14:29Margot.
14:33Thank you, thank you.
14:39Thank you.
14:45Hey, where's your friend?
14:47She had to leave.
14:49Well, you still have to pay for her drink.
14:51I planned to.
14:53Has it been a long time?
14:55I told you, the bartender's an idiot.
14:57He was so high, so wide, blue eyes, blond hair,
14:59tiny scar on the inside of his left nostril,
15:01and on and on. It's amazing.
15:03It's hypnotism.
15:07My, what a lovely audience you are.
15:09Such energy and enthusiasm.
15:11You Americans are simply marvelous.
15:13I'm sure we're all going to have
15:15smashing good time. I just want you to remember
15:17that we're not having a seance.
15:19Now then, I want to tell you all
15:21straight off that
15:23I'm not here to embarrass anyone in any way.
15:25I want you all to have
15:27good fun, so relax
15:29and enjoy yourselves.
15:37People wonder what it feels like.
15:39Well, I tell you, it's total relaxation.
15:41You lose all your inhibitions, but don't worry.
15:43Our fellow at table six sure seems to be watching Kelly.
15:47Hmm. He also looks
15:49very uptight.
15:51All right now, I'm going to need some volunteers.
15:53One or two couples. Let's see.
15:55I think I want
15:57you.
15:59No.
16:01Oh, come on.
16:03I hate to see a man frown when we're supposed to be having fun.
16:05Come on. Uh-oh.
16:07I think I'm going to need some help.
16:09Let's give our South Face friend a big hand.
16:11There we are.
16:13There we are, dear.
16:15Good. What's your name?
16:17Stark.
16:19Oh, come on. Let's be friendly. Is that a first name?
16:21Harry.
16:23Harry. Harry Stark. Isn't that a lovely name?
16:25Now, you sit right over there, Harry,
16:27and I will find you a pretty partner.
16:29Well,
16:31a lady for Harry.
16:33Harry Stark. Thank you, Margo.
16:35I think I found one right here. What's your name?
16:37Kelly.
16:39But I'm really not interested, thank you.
16:41Dear, dear me, another shrinking violet.
16:43Well, we know what to do with those, don't we?
16:45But come on, be a dear. Join Harry.
16:47I can't. Can't?
16:49Can't simply isn't part of my vocabulary.
16:51Come on, folks. I think we have to go one more time.
16:53Let's give the lady a little encouragement.
17:01There we are.
17:03Just take your seat right next to Harry.
17:05Now, then.
17:07Who's next?
17:09Oh, I don't think I want to. I'm afraid of hypnotism.
17:11All right. Who else?
17:13One more couple who, as you Americans say,
17:15would like to cool out,
17:17wake up really feeling good...
17:19Have you ever been hypnotized?
17:21Hey, Margo, how about being hypnotized?
17:23Why were you staring at me?
17:25Was I staring?
17:27I know you were.
17:29I don't like people staring at me.
17:31Do you have something to hide?
17:33What do you mean by that?
17:35If you do,
17:37I mean if you have something to hide,
17:39being hypnotized
17:41might be very embarrassing.
17:43Who are you?
17:47Just a curious lady.
17:49I don't think so.
17:51You ask too many questions.
17:55Guess it's a bad habit.
17:57Well, you'd better break the habit.
17:59Otherwise you might get hurt.
18:01Now, those of you who didn't get here,
18:03don't feel left out.
18:05It's just as easy to go under out in the audience
18:07as it is up on the stage with me.
18:09Come back. We won't hurt you.
18:11Off to the hounds, I suppose.
18:13Well, we've lost our sourpuss.
18:15Come on, kids, let's have a good time.
18:17I'd like you both to take seats right here.
18:19Thank you.
18:21And where are you off to?
18:23I seem to have lost my partner,
18:25so I'm going to take a rain check.
18:27Oh, well, that's quite all right.
18:29I'll work with this lovely couple right here.
18:31Let's have a nice round of applause
18:33for the pretty lady.
18:39I'd better go with Kelly.
18:41I'll stay and keep an eye on table 11.
18:51Kelly, relax. It's me.
18:53Oh, I'm sorry.
18:55Are you okay?
18:57Where's Boz?
18:59He probably took our client home.
19:01What in the world
19:03did you say to Harry Stark?
19:05Well, I asked him if he had anything to hide.
19:07Well, apparently he did.
19:09Yeah. He panicked
19:11when I said he might spill it
19:13if he was hypnotized.
19:15His voice was... Was it like the voice on the phone?
19:17I don't know.
19:19All of a sudden, every voice I hear
19:21sounds threatening.
19:23You're really getting spooked.
19:25Yeah, I guess I am.
19:27I never thought a voice
19:29on the phone could do that to me.
19:31Kind of hits you where you live, you know?
19:33No, I don't know,
19:35but from the look on your face,
19:37I'm beginning to get the idea.
19:57There's our friend Stark.
19:59Late model caddy.
20:01849-ASB.
20:03I'm gonna get that checked out.
20:05Yeah, you better go back inside with Chris.
20:07I'll see if the man at table 11
20:09is worth worrying about. Okay.
20:11Shh.
20:15Shh.
20:31And now, on the count of three,
20:33you will both wake up feeling
20:35completely relaxed and refreshed.
20:37One, two, three.
20:39Thank you very much.
20:41You may return to your seats.
20:43Your phones will be turned back on.
20:45Good night, and thank you.
20:53Well,
20:55we better go get Kelly, try and find Bosley,
20:57and see what happened to our client.
20:59Wait a minute.
21:01She's getting another call.
21:03I just wanted to say good night, Kelly.
21:05Who are you?
21:07We'll meet again, Kelly.
21:09Soon.
21:11Good night.
21:15Kelly.
21:17Was it him?
21:19Yes. Are you okay?
21:21I'm okay.
21:23Let's get out of here.
21:29Kelly.
21:31Kelly.
21:37I thought we saw him leave.
21:41Obviously, he came back.
21:43Maybe he had something else to say.
21:49Maybe. Maybe he did.
22:01You're gonna have to finish that.
22:03I was hoping you'd do that.
22:05Do what?
22:07Come over here and say something positive,
22:09like you're gonna have to finish that.
22:13Are you pulling my leg?
22:15No.
22:17I really wanted you to come over here and talk to me.
22:19About what?
22:21Well, I'm taking a night course
22:23in, uh, social studies.
22:25Social studies?
22:27Yeah.
22:29Social studies.
22:31Yeah. You know,
22:33about different types of people,
22:35what they do, how they act, where they go.
22:37You gonna finish that?
22:39Oh.
22:41Right.
22:45Anyway, I, um,
22:47like to pick out a certain type of person
22:49and study them.
22:51For instance, tonight at table 11, there was this guy,
22:53older guy, good-looking, gray hair,
22:55a little nervous, though, kept checking his watch.
22:57Looked like a scotch drinker.
22:59What about him?
23:01Well, I thought he'd make a great case study.
23:03I don't suppose you know the fella I'm talking about.
23:07Sure, I know him.
23:09Really?
23:11What's his name?
23:13You finish that, I might tell you.
23:19I'm listening.
23:21His name is Harkins.
23:23Harkins?
23:25Mm-hmm.
23:27Joe Harkins. He comes in here every night.
23:29I run a tab for him.
23:31Every night?
23:33You think he's the, um,
23:35social studies type?
23:37Oh, definitely.
23:39Great type.
23:41Hi.
23:51Hi.
23:53Hi.
23:55Where's our client?
23:57On a plane to Cincinnati.
23:59Cincinnati?
24:01Yeah, our folks live there.
24:03She wants to hide out until our phone killer is in custody.
24:05Not a bad idea, actually.
24:07Did you come up with anything when I was gone?
24:09Somebody can check out.
24:11Yeah, uh, Harry Stark and, uh, Joe Harkins.
24:13The two guys who were sitting at table 6 and 11.
24:15Okay, I'll follow up on that
24:17first thing in the morning.
24:23Quit in time.
24:25I didn't realize it was that late.
24:27It's always later than you think.
24:33Hello.
24:35Oh, hi.
24:37Oh.
24:39I'd offer you a drink, but the bar just shut down.
24:41That's very kind of you, but no matter.
24:43May I ask you a question?
24:45Sure.
24:47What happened with your partner tonight, that Harry Stark fellow?
24:49He decided he
24:51didn't want to be in your act, I guess.
24:53Well, I hope I didn't embarrass you
24:55or him either, for that matter.
24:57No, you didn't.
24:59Good, because like I say, it's all in fun.
25:01Listen, I simply must tell you
25:03why I put you two together.
25:05I noticed that he was watching you from the moment
25:07you came in tonight with that other lady.
25:09He was?
25:11Yes, and when I saw you on the phones together,
25:13well, I naturally assumed that...
25:15You saw him call me?
25:17Oh, well, of course, I couldn't be absolutely sure,
25:19but, well, when I saw you on the phones
25:21at the same time, I just naturally assumed
25:23that he had called you.
25:25Well, after all,
25:27he was watching you all evening.
25:29Does this Harry come in here often?
25:31Oh, yes, I've seen him here quite often recently.
25:33He always goes to table six,
25:35and he's always a sourpuss.
25:37Well, bedtime.
25:39Oh, listen,
25:41would you take my card before you go?
25:47You're a detective.
25:49Yes.
25:51You heard about the accident in the parking lot,
25:53the woman that got run over?
25:55Yes, it was awful. Poor thing.
25:57Well, I'm investigating for her insurance company,
25:59and since you're here every night,
26:01if you think of anything that might help,
26:03would you give me a call?
26:05I'd be glad to.
26:07I'd appreciate that.
26:09It's nothing.
26:11It's been awfully nice talking to you.
26:21Well, you about ready to call her tonight?
26:23Definitely.
26:25Listen, Chris and Julie just told me
26:27that our killer is taking a fix on you.
26:29Yes.
26:31Kelly, maybe you should stay with Chris and me for a while.
26:33I don't think so.
26:35Why not?
26:37I won't let him make me run scared.
26:39Kelly, if you're not scared, you should be.
26:41I'm scared.
26:43I'm just not running.
26:45I'll see you at the office in the morning.
26:59Okay.

30:21Hello?
30:23I thought I'd call to say one last good-night, Kelly.
30:28How did you get this number?
30:31Magic, Kelly.
30:33Magic.
30:35You're never gonna get away with what you've done.
30:39You know that, don't you?
30:41All I know is that you're a very pretty girl...
30:43and I'm going to have to kill you.
30:46Why? Why are you doing this?
30:50Why are you doing this to me? Why me?
30:52Because I have to, Kelly. I just have to.
30:55We'll talk again tomorrow. Stay well.
30:58No! Don't hang up! Please don't!
31:16Now, Kelly, you couldn't see the license on the car that was following you, huh?
31:25No. The headlights were in my eyes.
31:28Could you tell what model it was?
31:30No.
31:31Was it big? Small? Foreign?
31:33I told you the headlights were in my eyes!
31:40I'm... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap at you.
31:44It's just that when the phone rang in my house last night,
31:47well, it shook me up pretty good, and I haven't gotten over it yet.
31:51We understand, Kelly.
31:53I imagine it even gets more frightening
31:55when something like that follows you into your own home.
31:58Frightening, Charlie, and very personal.
32:00Kelly, did he say anything that might tell you why he's focused on you?
32:04No.
32:06You know, there is one thing that we should consider,
32:12and that is the dead girl.
32:15She was fragile, pretty, and a brunette.
32:19General size and coloring of Kelly.
32:22Not much to go on. Crazies don't need much.
32:25They can just fix on a type, and that can trigger them.
32:28Here, Charlie, send us these computer readouts on Stark and Harkins.
32:32Anything on Harkins, Charlie?
32:34The man who was sitting at table 11?
32:36Well, you notice he has a police record.
32:38Mm-hmm. Drug abuse, armed robbery,
32:41misdemeanor assault on two women. Nice fella.
32:44Yeah.
32:45Perhaps he's graduated from misdemeanor assault
32:48to something more deadly.
32:51Our Harry Stark is no boy scat either.
32:54Extortion, racketeering, assault.
32:56I would say that we have two very likely candidates, wouldn't you?
33:00Okay, how do we proceed?
33:02For the moment, all we can do is observe them
33:05and see how they observe Kelly.
33:08Okay.
33:10Kelly, you think you're up to going on with this?
33:13Kelly?
33:15What?
33:17You gonna be up for this? Are you all right?
33:20I'll be fine.
33:26Are you sure, Kelly?
33:28I'm sure, Charlie.
33:30You know, if all this is getting too personal,
33:33none of us would blame you if you wanted to pull out.
33:36I'm all right, Charlie. I'm all right.
33:39As of now, I want to hurt him as much as he wants to hurt me.
34:01Miss Garrett.
34:03My name's Ford.
34:05Edward.
34:07What can I do for you, Mr. Ford?
34:10Well, I hope it's something that I can do for you.
34:13Margo said I should speak to you.
34:15Margo?
34:17The, uh, hypnotist lady at the hotline club.
34:20Oh, yes.
34:22See, I'm a freelance feature writer,
34:24I couldn't help noticing you at the club last night.
34:27You are mighty pretty.
34:29So this morning, I called Margo
34:32on the chance that she just might remember your name,
34:35and she did.
34:37You were at the hotline club last night?
34:40Oh, yes, ma'am. I go there a whole lot.
34:43Anyway, Margo tells me that you're, uh,
34:46deeply in love with her.
34:48Yes, sir.
34:50I go there a whole lot.
34:52Anyway, Margo tells me that you're a detective of all things.
34:56Well, that just naturally piques my journalistic curiosity.
35:00So I was wondering if, uh,
35:03you just might have lunch with me today.
35:11Why not?
35:13Do you know a place nearby?
35:15Yes, there's a lunch spot about ten blocks down.
35:18Perhaps you'd like to go in my car?
35:21No, I'd prefer to meet you there.
35:24Very well.
35:26I'll follow you.
35:29All right.
35:32Shh.
35:34Shh.
35:36Shh.
36:00Chris Kelly.
36:02I want you to check out a license number for me.
36:05247-PCE.
36:07Black 79 Lincoln.
36:09Man driving it says his name is Ford.
36:11Edward Ford.
36:13Check him out.
36:15Yeah, I'm all right. Just check it out for me.
36:18I'll be at Parsons.
36:27Dessert?
36:29No, thank you.
36:31How long have you been a freelance rider?
36:34A few years now.
36:36And you think you can sell a story on a lady detective?
36:40A very pretty lady detective.
36:44You seem very preoccupied with that.
36:47With what?
36:49Pretty.
36:51I am?
36:53Yes.
36:55But you are.
36:57Very pretty, I mean.
36:59There you go again.
37:02Well, maybe you're just, uh, not too sensitive.
37:06That may be true.
37:08It's just that last night my life was threatened three times by a man on a phone
37:13who was also preoccupied with pretty.
37:18Call for you, Miss Garrett.
37:31Hello?
37:33Hi, Kelly, it's Chris.
37:35Oh, hi.
37:37Hi. Listen, we've been checking out this Edward Ford you called about a few minutes ago.
37:42And?
37:44Well, for openers, his name doesn't even show up at the Department of Motor Vehicles
37:48in connection with a license on a black Lincoln.
37:51Really? Who's doing it?
37:53Well, I don't know.
37:55I don't know.
37:58Really? Whose does?
38:00A fellow named Factor, Paul Factor.
38:04Charlie says if you can get him a detailed description of this fellow Edward Ford,
38:08he'll do some more checking.
38:10Well, I just can't do that right now, boss.
38:12Well, why not?
38:14I just can't.
38:16Wait a minute, Kelly. Are you saying he's there with you right now?
38:19Yes.
38:21Well, where did he come from?
38:23Well, where did he come from?
38:25His name didn't even come up when you were in the office a few minutes ago.
38:29And why am I asking you these questions?
38:31If he's there with you, you can't answer me, right?
38:33That's right.
38:35I'll just keep muddling through, and we'll talk later.
38:38Kelly, wait.
38:40You'll hear from me.
38:42Bye.
38:46I don't like this.
38:47Neither do I.
38:49Where did this fellow Edward Ford come into the picture?
38:53Somewhere between our front door and the restaurant where Kelly is right now.
38:56I think we'd better get over there.
38:58You two go ahead.
39:00I'm going to see what more I can find out about this fellow Factor, Paul Factor,
39:04whose car Edward Ford is driving.
39:07Okay.
39:15That phone call seems to have upset you.
39:18Why do you say that?
39:21The look on your face.
39:24Oh, there's just been a mix-up.
39:26I can straighten it out.
39:31I'd like the number of the Hotline Club.
39:33It's on 40th Street.
39:35You regular there, too?
39:37No. I've only been there once,
39:39and since my life was threatened, as you can imagine,
39:42it's not one of my favorite places.
39:45Thank you very much.
39:56Is this the Hotline Club?
39:58Is Margo there, please?
40:03Kelly Garrett.
40:05When do you expect her?
40:08Half an hour.
40:10All right, would you tell her I'm on my way there
40:13and that I called? I'd like to talk to her.
40:16Thank you very much.
40:20Everything all right?
40:22Fine, but I have to go.
40:25Well, I was hoping to talk to you a little bit more.
40:28Well, you have my card. Why don't you give me a call?
40:35Waitress, honey?
40:39I'm in an awful big hurry.
40:41I'll bring you a change right away, sir.
40:43Thank you very much.
41:12Hello.
41:14We're not open.
41:16I just called a few minutes ago about Margo.
41:19Oh, yeah. Like I told you,
41:21she's coming in here to get some costumes or something.
41:24Mind if I wait?
41:26Suit yourself.
41:42Have you found Kelly?
41:44No. Parson said she left about 15 minutes ago.
41:47I don't suppose he knows where she went?
41:49No.
41:51Why are you frowning?
41:53Jump in the car. I'll explain along the way.
41:55Along the way? Where?
41:57The Hotline Club. I think I know who owns that black Lincoln.
42:06I'm sorry.
42:09Thank you.
42:23Well, hello.
42:25Hi.
42:27What a surprise. What are you doing here?
42:29The bartender said you had to pick up some costumes,
42:32and I wanted to talk to you about something.
42:34Cleaning day.
42:36You look worried.
42:38Listen.
42:40Did you talk to a man named Ford about me?
42:42Ford?
42:44Yes, Edward Ford.
42:46Doesn't ring a bell.
42:48You mean you didn't tell him who I was
42:50and what I do for a living?
42:52No, I would never tell anyone that.
42:57Are you in some kind of trouble?
42:59I'm not sure.
43:01A man approached me, said his name was Edward Ford,
43:05and that he'd seen me here last night
43:07and that you gave him my name.
43:09Well, he was lying to you.
43:12I've never met the man.
43:14What did he want?
43:16He took me to lunch, and he asked a lot of questions about me.
43:19What kind of questions?
43:21Personal stuff about me, my life, relationships with men.
43:24He asked if I'd ever been engaged, married, divorced.
43:28Then he kept asking if I'd ever been rejected.
43:32Well, that is odd.
43:34What do you mean?
43:36Well, there was a man here just a few days ago
43:38who had the exact same conversation with me.
43:41Really? Do you remember his name, what he looked like?
43:44He was slim,
43:46rather intense,
43:49curly hair,
43:51said his name was...
43:54Factor?
43:56Factor? Paul Factor?
43:58That's it. Why?
44:00Well, that's the name the DMV had on the black Lincoln
44:03that Edward Ford was driving.
44:05Not the car that's outside now.
44:08Outside? I didn't see a car when I came in.
44:11It was just arriving as I came in the staged entrance.
44:14Would you take me to the staged entrance?
44:17Why, yes, of course.
44:19Okay.
44:30Oh, my God.
45:01Did you see the dr...
45:06Marco?
45:10Ah!
45:24Wait!
45:26Ah!
45:29Ah!
45:49Hey!
45:58Ah!
46:08Hold it!
46:29Oh, my God.
46:31Kelly, this is Paul Factor,
46:33alias Edward Ford.
46:35I'm sorry.
46:37I'm sorry.
46:39I'm sorry.
46:41I'm sorry.
46:43I'm sorry.
46:45I'm sorry.
46:47I'm sorry.
46:49I'm sorry.
46:51I'm sorry.
46:53I'm sorry.
46:55I'm sorry.
46:57Alias Edward Ford.
46:59Alias Margo.
47:01Alias the voice on the phone.
47:04You okay?
47:06Yeah, I'm okay.
47:08But I think you two will have to wrap this one up without me.
47:12Okay.
47:14Paz?
47:27Paz?
47:57Angels, I'm glad this case is over with.
48:00But I am curious about our other two suspects,
48:03Harkins and Stark.
48:05Why were they acting so suspiciously?
48:07Well, the reason for their odd behavior is very simple, Charlie.
48:11Stark and Harkins were talking to each other on the telephones.
48:14Seems they were dealing in drugs,
48:16using the hotline club as a contact point.
48:18The police have been staking it out,
48:20and they arrested them last night.
48:22And Stark was afraid that Kelly was an undercover cop.
48:25He didn't know who she was.
48:27He just knew she asked too many questions
48:29and it scared the devil out of him and Harkins.
48:31Kelly, you're not saying much.
48:33Are you all right?
48:35No, not yet.
48:37But I will be, Charlie.
48:39I know you will.
48:41By the way, I understand the state psychiatrists
48:43are having a fetal day with Margo's disturbed little mind.
48:47It's gonna take some unscrambling.
48:49I'd be anxious to read the report when they're finished.
48:52Well, Kelly, especially for your sake,
48:55I'm deeply grateful it's over.
48:57You should sleep better tonight.
48:59Well, it's not quite over yet, Charlie.
49:01What do you mean?
49:03Before I go home, I have to stop by and pay this.
49:05What is it?
49:07Apparently I messed up on my bookkeeping.
49:09This is an overdue notice on my phone bill.
49:11They're threatening to turn off my phone.
49:13Well, honey, you're a dollar short,
49:15and as usual, they're a day late.
49:22Oh, no!
49:52¶¶¶¶
