1
00:00:02,349 --> 00:00:04,078
He belongs behind bars.
2
00:00:04,151 --> 00:00:06,676
Not for murder.
Yes, for murder!
3
00:00:06,753 --> 00:00:07,981
He hurt Mommy.
4
00:00:08,055 --> 00:00:09,488
Did you see him do that?
5
00:00:09,556 --> 00:00:11,080
I'm not supposed to tell.
6
00:00:11,158 --> 00:00:12,318
Call off the hearing,
Aldridge.
7
00:00:12,392 --> 00:00:15,190
Mr. Magnum, I really
hope you have some other way
of earning a living,
8
00:00:15,262 --> 00:00:17,662
because your days
as a private investigator
are over.
9
00:00:17,731 --> 00:00:19,995
Well, you can't
take these matters
into your own hands.
10
00:00:20,067 --> 00:00:21,227
It might be justice.
11
00:00:21,301 --> 00:00:24,498
This is the only
physical evidence that
you bring into this courtroom
12
00:00:24,571 --> 00:00:26,596
to tie this man to a crime
he did not commit.
13
00:00:26,673 --> 00:00:29,005
I'm trying to answer
the question you asked me.
14
00:00:29,076 --> 00:00:30,634
Objection! Objection!
15
00:02:00,968 --> 00:02:02,799
Where are you going?
16
00:02:03,136 --> 00:02:05,127
You're not going out
without me.
17
00:02:05,405 --> 00:02:07,339
Greg, I'm talking to you.
18
00:02:13,313 --> 00:02:16,749
A birthday poem for Nana
from Beth.
19
00:02:19,386 --> 00:02:22,412
Honey, wait for me.
I'll change my clothes.
20
00:02:22,489 --> 00:02:23,456
Don't bother.
21
00:02:23,523 --> 00:02:25,252
It won't take
but a minute.
22
00:02:25,325 --> 00:02:27,384
I said, don't bother.
23
00:02:27,461 --> 00:02:30,624
Well, I am bothered.
And I wanna talk about it.
24
00:02:31,565 --> 00:02:33,897
There's nothing
to talk about.
25
00:02:33,967 --> 00:02:35,434
I'll see you later.
26
00:02:35,502 --> 00:02:38,494
Greg,
where are you going?
27
00:02:45,379 --> 00:02:48,314
If you think I'm gonna
sit home and wait for you,
you're crazy!
28
00:02:48,382 --> 00:02:50,179
I don't care
what you do.
29
00:02:50,250 --> 00:02:53,117
You're not...
Come back here!
You're not leaving!
30
00:02:53,186 --> 00:02:54,210
Watch me!
31
00:02:54,287 --> 00:02:55,879
Don't!
32
00:02:55,956 --> 00:02:57,753
Give me the keys.
I'm getting out of here.
33
00:02:57,824 --> 00:03:00,952
No!
You're not going anywhere.
You're staying right here.
34
00:03:01,028 --> 00:03:02,518
That's right.
Keep pushing.
35
00:03:03,730 --> 00:03:04,754
Don't!
36
00:03:06,066 --> 00:03:07,397
I'll call the police.
37
00:03:07,467 --> 00:03:08,934
You leave
and I'll call the police!
38
00:03:09,002 --> 00:03:11,971
You humiliate me
one more time
and I'll kill you!
39
00:03:13,273 --> 00:03:15,434
Big man.
Big, scary man!
40
00:03:36,730 --> 00:03:38,391
Oh, my God.
41
00:03:49,209 --> 00:03:50,198
Ow.
42
00:04:00,854 --> 00:04:04,085
Good morning, Higgins.
How nice of you to knock.
43
00:04:04,157 --> 00:04:07,058
I was just making
some breakfast.
Protein drink.
44
00:04:07,127 --> 00:04:10,392
Goat's milk,
brewer's yeast, raw eggs
and desiccated liver.
45
00:04:10,497 --> 00:04:11,987
Would you like some?
46
00:04:15,368 --> 00:04:17,199
You want something, Higgins?
47
00:04:18,271 --> 00:04:20,535
I've just been examining
the grounds.
48
00:04:21,408 --> 00:04:23,535
Have you any idea
what you've done?
49
00:04:23,610 --> 00:04:25,077
The gate!
50
00:04:25,145 --> 00:04:27,272
Oh, I'm sorry about the lock.
See...
51
00:04:27,347 --> 00:04:29,212
I'm not referring to the lock.
52
00:04:29,282 --> 00:04:31,443
A breach of security
could perhaps be overlooked,
53
00:04:31,518 --> 00:04:34,544
but how can one
possibly overlook death
and mutilation?
54
00:04:35,122 --> 00:04:36,316
Mutilation?
55
00:04:36,757 --> 00:04:38,884
Do you deny that you drove
the car off the driveway,
56
00:04:38,959 --> 00:04:41,951
thereby destroying dozens
of healthy, thriving flowers
57
00:04:42,129 --> 00:04:44,620
which Kenji and I
had scheduled to plant
this morning?
58
00:04:44,698 --> 00:04:46,029
Flowers?
59
00:04:46,933 --> 00:04:48,161
What flowers?
60
00:04:49,870 --> 00:04:51,167
The flowers.
61
00:04:52,339 --> 00:04:54,000
Gee, I don't remember...
I...
62
00:04:54,074 --> 00:04:57,373
The hours Kenji and I spent
discussing, searching,
63
00:04:57,444 --> 00:05:00,675
seeking out the ideal plants
for that section
of the estate.
64
00:05:00,747 --> 00:05:03,113
The joy we felt
when the plants arrived.
65
00:05:03,483 --> 00:05:04,848
The hope we shared
66
00:05:04,918 --> 00:05:08,046
as this year's
Yard and Garden Show
judging drew near.
67
00:05:08,121 --> 00:05:11,522
All of that destroyed
with one reckless turn
of the steering wheel.
68
00:05:11,591 --> 00:05:12,853
It was dark.
69
00:05:12,926 --> 00:05:14,223
I mean, Higgins,
70
00:05:14,294 --> 00:05:17,195
don't you think
you're overreacting
just a little bit?
71
00:05:17,264 --> 00:05:18,788
They're just flowers.
72
00:05:19,833 --> 00:05:22,631
I might have expected
something like that from you.
73
00:05:22,702 --> 00:05:26,069
This morning,
I came to a startling
and horrifying realization.
74
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,073
Since your arrival
at Robin's Nest,
75
00:05:28,141 --> 00:05:31,133
you have insidiously
eroded away
my sense of diligence.
76
00:05:31,444 --> 00:05:33,537
Security has fallen
completely apart.
77
00:05:33,613 --> 00:05:35,581
The grounds are in
a terrible state of neglect.
78
00:05:35,649 --> 00:05:37,844
This guesthouse
should be condemned.
79
00:05:37,918 --> 00:05:39,249
It doesn't look so bad!
80
00:05:39,319 --> 00:05:40,718
And the estate
is completely overrun
81
00:05:40,787 --> 00:05:42,277
with your
good-for-nothing friends,
82
00:05:42,355 --> 00:05:44,346
sleazy clients
and unexpected guests.
83
00:05:44,424 --> 00:05:46,153
That is not true!
84
00:05:46,326 --> 00:05:47,418
Hi, Thomas.
85
00:05:48,728 --> 00:05:51,128
The gate was open,
so I just came on in.
86
00:05:54,534 --> 00:05:56,058
I am now going
to call a locksmith
87
00:05:56,136 --> 00:05:58,070
before someone else
arrives unannounced,
88
00:05:58,138 --> 00:06:01,972
and then I am going
to put away the Ferrari
for good.
89
00:06:02,042 --> 00:06:03,168
Carol.
90
00:06:03,243 --> 00:06:04,369
Jonathan.
- Higgins?
91
00:06:04,444 --> 00:06:07,675
We are going back
to a strict regimen
around here.
92
00:06:07,747 --> 00:06:10,443
A military regimen.
Good day.
93
00:06:10,517 --> 00:06:11,609
Higgins!
94
00:06:12,352 --> 00:06:13,785
Thomas...
Carol.
95
00:06:13,854 --> 00:06:16,755
Come in, sit down,
have some protein drink.
I'll be right back.
96
00:06:16,823 --> 00:06:17,847
Where are you going?
97
00:06:17,924 --> 00:06:19,551
I'm...
Now, I made
a special trip over here
98
00:06:19,626 --> 00:06:22,186
because you said
you could talk to me
about my case.
99
00:06:22,262 --> 00:06:24,924
That's what you get
when you go to your friends
for free advice.
100
00:06:24,998 --> 00:06:26,090
I knew this would happen...
101
00:06:26,166 --> 00:06:28,031
I have to clear up
this car thing with Higgins.
102
00:06:28,101 --> 00:06:30,865
...so I had the department
give me an advance
on your salary. Cash!
103
00:06:35,709 --> 00:06:37,074
You're hiring me?
104
00:06:38,845 --> 00:06:40,779
What makes you think
she's telling the truth?
105
00:06:40,847 --> 00:06:42,075
Why would she lie to me?
106
00:06:42,148 --> 00:06:43,479
That's what lawyers
get paid to do.
107
00:06:43,550 --> 00:06:46,110
Look, Thomas, if it were such
an open-and-shut case,
108
00:06:46,186 --> 00:06:48,450
I mean, why would she hire you
to go snooping around?
109
00:06:48,521 --> 00:06:51,012
It's an important trial.
There's gonna be
a lot of press coverage.
110
00:06:51,091 --> 00:06:53,184
She just wants to make sure
the police didn't miss
anything
111
00:06:53,260 --> 00:06:54,887
in their investigation.
112
00:06:55,061 --> 00:06:56,050
Hey!
113
00:06:56,630 --> 00:06:57,824
What do you think
of this one?
114
00:06:57,898 --> 00:07:00,162
Look, did she tell you
that the girl
that turned up dead
115
00:07:00,233 --> 00:07:01,461
had something
of a reputation?
116
00:07:01,534 --> 00:07:04,560
$1,000 down,
limited 30-day warranty?
117
00:07:04,638 --> 00:07:07,106
$1,000 would eat up
the rest of my savings.
118
00:07:07,173 --> 00:07:09,164
Thomas, those girls
hung around the club a lot.
119
00:07:09,242 --> 00:07:10,869
They were the drinking
and partying set...
120
00:07:10,944 --> 00:07:12,104
Will you forget
about the case?
121
00:07:12,178 --> 00:07:14,510
I thought you were gonna
get me a deal on a car.
122
00:07:14,581 --> 00:07:17,243
Hey, Rick!
Okay, okay.
123
00:07:17,484 --> 00:07:19,384
Hey, bro!
Hey, how you doing?
124
00:07:19,452 --> 00:07:21,852
Hey, bro! How you doing?
All right, all right.
125
00:07:21,922 --> 00:07:25,449
Thomas Magnum, I want you
to meet Willie Kanati...
Kali... He's Hawaiian.
126
00:07:25,525 --> 00:07:27,425
Willie K., we'll say.
How are you?
127
00:07:27,494 --> 00:07:28,518
How's it?
128
00:07:28,595 --> 00:07:30,062
Willie here has got
the most incredible talent
129
00:07:30,130 --> 00:07:32,564
for putting the right car
with the right person.
130
00:07:32,632 --> 00:07:35,760
Thomas here is looking
for a good used car
cheap, Willie.
131
00:07:36,303 --> 00:07:39,761
Hey, today is
your lucky day!
132
00:07:42,475 --> 00:07:45,137
I know what you're thinking,
and you're wrong.
133
00:07:45,211 --> 00:07:46,803
I could have bought
something sensible,
134
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,643
something with
low maintenance.
135
00:07:48,715 --> 00:07:51,843
But I realized
that, as a professional
private investigator,
136
00:07:51,918 --> 00:07:54,250
I needed something with speed,
137
00:07:54,321 --> 00:07:56,915
something that would
help me out in an emergency.
138
00:07:56,990 --> 00:07:58,924
Something I could depend on.
139
00:07:58,992 --> 00:08:01,961
Not to mention the value
it had as an investment.
140
00:08:08,768 --> 00:08:11,931
You have to look
at these things
in terms of the long run.
141
00:09:22,442 --> 00:09:24,774
You know,
if it weren't for Elizabeth,
142
00:09:24,844 --> 00:09:27,438
I'd probably
pull into a cocoon
143
00:09:27,981 --> 00:09:29,972
and hide away
144
00:09:31,618 --> 00:09:34,086
from this whole ugly mess.
145
00:09:34,921 --> 00:09:38,721
But, for Beth's sake,
I intend to see
that justice is done.
146
00:09:39,459 --> 00:09:40,790
Your granddaughter...
147
00:09:40,860 --> 00:09:42,088
It's funny
148
00:09:43,296 --> 00:09:48,131
how families come together
for weddings and funerals,
isn't it?
149
00:09:48,668 --> 00:09:50,795
The happiest day of my life
150
00:09:50,870 --> 00:09:53,703
was when Debbie married Greg.
151
00:09:55,375 --> 00:09:58,208
Her first husband died
in an automobile accident,
152
00:09:58,278 --> 00:10:01,270
and she always seemed
153
00:10:03,149 --> 00:10:05,083
a little lost after that.
154
00:10:05,452 --> 00:10:08,319
And Beth needed
a full-time daddy
around the house.
155
00:10:09,789 --> 00:10:13,281
She loved Greg so much.
We all did.
156
00:10:15,195 --> 00:10:17,686
To think, somehow,
157
00:10:18,031 --> 00:10:20,898
it has all deteriorated
to this...
158
00:10:29,409 --> 00:10:31,900
Those were taken
several months ago.
159
00:10:32,345 --> 00:10:35,075
Debbie decided she wanted
to file for divorce,
160
00:10:35,915 --> 00:10:37,610
and she wanted proof
161
00:10:38,485 --> 00:10:41,579
that Greg was beating her.
162
00:10:42,689 --> 00:10:45,180
Your granddaughter
witnessed the murder?
163
00:10:46,292 --> 00:10:49,489
You know, it wasn't
until after the funeral
164
00:10:51,064 --> 00:10:53,430
That I remembered
I even had these photographs.
165
00:10:53,500 --> 00:10:55,400
I hope they will do some good.
166
00:10:57,303 --> 00:11:00,204
Do you have any idea
what he might have done
with the murder weapon?
167
00:11:00,273 --> 00:11:02,207
I didn't even know
he had a gun.
168
00:11:04,777 --> 00:11:06,540
He must've been
169
00:11:07,380 --> 00:11:09,143
at very close range.
170
00:11:11,651 --> 00:11:13,846
I'm sorry. I...
We can talk about this later.
171
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,387
No, no, it's all right.
172
00:11:15,755 --> 00:11:18,747
Our neighbors heard
the gunshot
173
00:11:18,825 --> 00:11:22,625
and they saw Greg
drive out of here very fast.
174
00:11:24,164 --> 00:11:25,961
After they found Debbie,
175
00:11:27,734 --> 00:11:31,170
the police picked him up
at his...
176
00:11:32,138 --> 00:11:34,106
At a lady friend's house.
177
00:11:34,174 --> 00:11:36,074
But they never found
the gun.
178
00:11:42,182 --> 00:11:44,241
Mrs. Carrington, I know
179
00:11:45,051 --> 00:11:47,485
that you don't want
your granddaughter to testify.
180
00:11:47,554 --> 00:11:50,717
No. No.
She's been through enough.
181
00:11:51,090 --> 00:11:54,548
But I wondered
if she could talk to me.
182
00:11:54,994 --> 00:11:58,361
She might remember something
that would lead us
to the weapon.
183
00:11:59,098 --> 00:12:00,963
There is nothing
she could tell you
184
00:12:01,501 --> 00:12:04,664
that I haven't already
told the police.
185
00:12:11,411 --> 00:12:14,710
This is where he went
off the road in his hurry
to get out of here.
186
00:12:14,781 --> 00:12:18,478
But the police said
these tracks
don't prove anything.
187
00:12:18,885 --> 00:12:21,547
I'm so glad you think
they might be useful.
188
00:12:22,589 --> 00:12:24,250
Has anyone moved
that car since...
189
00:12:24,324 --> 00:12:27,191
No, no,
the police impounded it.
They still have it.
190
00:12:29,028 --> 00:12:32,225
There's something else
that has been bothering me.
191
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,262
For the last few months,
I began to hear gossip
192
00:12:36,336 --> 00:12:37,667
that Greg had been
married before,
193
00:12:37,737 --> 00:12:40,763
something he never mentioned
to Debbie or me.
194
00:12:41,074 --> 00:12:43,702
I tried to talk to her
about it, but somehow...
195
00:12:44,344 --> 00:12:47,780
Oh, I don't know.
She was always so insecure.
196
00:12:48,281 --> 00:12:50,511
Perhaps she didn't want
to know.
197
00:12:51,017 --> 00:12:54,578
Anyway, I don't know
whether this is any help
to your investigation,
198
00:12:54,654 --> 00:12:57,350
but I wanted to make sure
I told you everything.
199
00:12:58,124 --> 00:12:59,489
Well, thank you.
200
00:13:18,578 --> 00:13:22,105
I'm sure
it's nothing serious.
T.C. Can take a look at it.
201
00:13:22,649 --> 00:13:23,946
Carol!
202
00:13:24,651 --> 00:13:26,710
You just went through
a red light!
203
00:13:26,786 --> 00:13:28,219
Are you trying
to get me killed?
204
00:13:28,288 --> 00:13:30,017
You've come up
with worse suggestions.
205
00:13:30,089 --> 00:13:32,580
Okay, I am sorry
my car died.
206
00:13:32,659 --> 00:13:34,058
It's not like I did it
on purpose.
207
00:13:34,127 --> 00:13:36,061
The reason I hired you
to investigate
208
00:13:36,129 --> 00:13:39,030
was because
I didn't wanna go around
spending my valuable time
209
00:13:39,098 --> 00:13:40,895
driving around
gathering up evidence.
210
00:13:40,967 --> 00:13:42,298
Look out!
211
00:13:42,368 --> 00:13:43,926
Nice Ford.
212
00:13:45,738 --> 00:13:47,296
Let me out of here!
213
00:13:47,373 --> 00:13:49,068
You wanted to go
to the Hall of Records,
214
00:13:49,142 --> 00:13:51,576
I'm taking you
to the Hall of Records.
215
00:13:51,644 --> 00:13:53,077
After that,
you're on your own.
216
00:13:53,146 --> 00:13:54,238
Fine!
217
00:13:57,483 --> 00:13:59,883
These photographs
are incredible!
218
00:13:59,952 --> 00:14:03,183
This is just the kind
of evidence we need
to lock down the case.
219
00:14:03,256 --> 00:14:05,156
I thought it was
already locked down.
220
00:14:05,224 --> 00:14:07,021
Well, it is, practically.
221
00:14:07,093 --> 00:14:10,153
I mean, a lot of people
have offered to testify
that he had a violent temper.
222
00:14:10,229 --> 00:14:13,494
But now, we have
physical evidence
that he hit her.
223
00:14:13,566 --> 00:14:15,090
All you have
are some photographs.
224
00:14:15,168 --> 00:14:16,601
And if Mrs. Carrington's
hunch is right,
225
00:14:16,669 --> 00:14:19,297
if we do find an ex-wife
somewhere in the woodwork,
226
00:14:19,372 --> 00:14:21,499
we may have one hell
of a surprise witness.
227
00:14:21,574 --> 00:14:23,235
I still wish
we had a murder weapon.
228
00:14:23,309 --> 00:14:26,107
Can you make me
copies of these
to send to the defense?
229
00:14:26,179 --> 00:14:28,739
And I'll need a couple copies
of the tire tracks, too,
230
00:14:28,815 --> 00:14:30,612
because I want
to introduce them
into evidence
231
00:14:30,683 --> 00:14:32,207
to corroborate
the neighbor's testimony.
232
00:14:32,285 --> 00:14:34,185
Anything else?
Yeah.
233
00:14:35,521 --> 00:14:37,716
I'm sorry I yelled at you
in the car.
234
00:14:38,491 --> 00:14:39,822
Oh, forget it.
235
00:14:39,892 --> 00:14:41,655
No, no. There was no excuse.
236
00:14:41,728 --> 00:14:43,525
No, no.
No, I'm sorry.
237
00:14:44,130 --> 00:14:45,961
And you know what?
When I get back
to the office,
238
00:14:46,032 --> 00:14:47,397
I'm gonna call
the disbursement clerk
239
00:14:47,467 --> 00:14:49,765
and I'm gonna tell him
he was so wrong,
240
00:14:49,836 --> 00:14:51,394
'cause you really are
worth the money.
241
00:14:51,471 --> 00:14:52,733
Very funny.
242
00:14:52,805 --> 00:14:55,000
Thomas Magnum?
Yes, that's us.
243
00:14:55,074 --> 00:14:57,599
I've got that information
you wanted on Greg Bowman.
244
00:14:57,677 --> 00:14:58,701
Great!
245
00:14:58,778 --> 00:15:02,179
Now, I found only one
marriage license application,
246
00:15:02,248 --> 00:15:05,012
but there's something else
here I think you'll wanna
take a look at.
247
00:15:05,084 --> 00:15:06,642
Excuse me.
248
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,280
Ms Jones.
249
00:15:09,956 --> 00:15:13,187
Ray, I'm busy. I told you
never to call me
at the office.
250
00:15:16,062 --> 00:15:17,791
What are you
talking about?
251
00:15:21,434 --> 00:15:24,232
You can't do this to me, Ray,
not on the phone.
252
00:15:25,405 --> 00:15:26,872
Is it someone else?
253
00:15:27,140 --> 00:15:29,108
Would you stop it, please?
I don't believe this!
254
00:15:29,175 --> 00:15:31,769
This is the same conversation
she had two years ago.
255
00:15:31,844 --> 00:15:33,004
Do you mind?
256
00:15:33,079 --> 00:15:35,240
You knew
I was a career woman...
It was the same conversation
257
00:15:35,314 --> 00:15:37,805
she had two years ago
when I was here
on another case.
258
00:15:37,884 --> 00:15:39,909
Could we just
get the paperwork
and get out of here?
259
00:15:39,986 --> 00:15:43,444
I don't see why
we can't at least
have dinner. I...
260
00:15:43,723 --> 00:15:45,748
Why can't we discuss this,
261
00:15:45,825 --> 00:15:48,885
you know, like
two civilized human beings?
262
00:15:51,130 --> 00:15:52,119
Ray.
263
00:15:54,133 --> 00:15:56,260
Don't you dare
hang up on me, Ray, I...
264
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,771
Gee, I'm sorry.
265
00:16:01,841 --> 00:16:04,309
Why don't you just mind
your own business?
266
00:16:04,410 --> 00:16:07,504
I'm sorry. I didn't mean
to listen, I...
267
00:16:07,580 --> 00:16:09,047
Thomas, look.
268
00:16:10,283 --> 00:16:15,118
"Application to marry,
Gregory Xavier Bowman,
Deborah Ann Carrington.
269
00:16:15,188 --> 00:16:19,625
"Certificate of live birth,
Gregory Xavier Bowman,
September 17, 1947.
270
00:16:19,692 --> 00:16:21,284
"Certificate of death,
271
00:16:23,095 --> 00:16:25,290
"September 19, 1947."
272
00:16:25,364 --> 00:16:27,889
Greg Bowman died
when he was two days old.
273
00:16:27,967 --> 00:16:29,935
Who've they got in jail?
274
00:16:33,973 --> 00:16:37,340
This time,
it is not going to work.
I know you.
275
00:16:37,410 --> 00:16:39,810
First, you hook me in
with some cockamamie story
276
00:16:39,879 --> 00:16:41,870
and then,
after I'm in over my head,
you yell, "Surprise!"
277
00:16:41,948 --> 00:16:44,075
Thomas, I am just
as surprised as you are.
278
00:16:44,150 --> 00:16:45,515
No, no, no, no.
Scout's honor.
279
00:16:45,585 --> 00:16:47,177
This is how you operate.
280
00:16:47,253 --> 00:16:50,245
First I find out
the suspect isn't the guy
you said he was,
281
00:16:50,323 --> 00:16:52,655
and now I find out
you don't even have a case
against the guy.
282
00:16:52,725 --> 00:16:54,124
I do!
You do not!
283
00:16:54,193 --> 00:16:55,592
Do you have a confession?
No.
284
00:16:55,661 --> 00:16:58,095
Do you have witnesses
to the crime?
Now, you listen here.
285
00:16:58,164 --> 00:16:59,688
You're just cranky...
286
00:16:59,765 --> 00:17:01,494
I am not cranky!
287
00:17:01,567 --> 00:17:04,297
Oh, all right, all right.
You are just out of sorts
288
00:17:04,370 --> 00:17:05,962
because your new car
broke down.
289
00:17:06,038 --> 00:17:08,029
But please don't take it out
on the case.
290
00:17:08,107 --> 00:17:10,200
You have been paid
to investigate.
291
00:17:10,676 --> 00:17:13,406
Well, Thomas, I think
your little red wagon
292
00:17:13,479 --> 00:17:14,912
is running again.
293
00:17:14,981 --> 00:17:17,541
I mean, that guy...
That guy must've
spent hours
294
00:17:17,617 --> 00:17:19,050
looking through
death certificate records
295
00:17:19,118 --> 00:17:21,018
to come up
with a new identity.
296
00:17:21,087 --> 00:17:24,215
So, all we had to do
was synchronize
the carburetor...
297
00:17:24,290 --> 00:17:26,281
What I'm wondering is,
why would he go
to that trouble
298
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:27,849
unless he had
something to hide?
299
00:17:27,927 --> 00:17:30,691
He could have
for any number of reasons.
300
00:17:31,097 --> 00:17:32,291
...replace the condenser...
301
00:17:32,365 --> 00:17:35,198
Like trying to hide
criminal activity, huh?
...intake manifold gaskets...
302
00:17:35,268 --> 00:17:36,895
Nobody knows
where he came from,
303
00:17:36,969 --> 00:17:39,028
he has no visible
means of support...
...the fan belt...
304
00:17:39,105 --> 00:17:40,572
and yet he's able
to afford
305
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,541
the services
of M. Barry Aldridge,
306
00:17:43,609 --> 00:17:46,043
one of the most
formidable criminal attorneys
in the state.
307
00:17:46,112 --> 00:17:47,773
Now, where does he get
that kind of money?
308
00:17:47,847 --> 00:17:50,042
Yeah, then I tightened
the fan belt
309
00:17:50,116 --> 00:17:51,481
and I changed the oil.
310
00:17:51,551 --> 00:17:53,212
You know, if you warm
this thing up properly,
311
00:17:53,286 --> 00:17:54,446
you shouldn't have
any more trouble.
312
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,044
Oh, great, T.C. Thanks.
313
00:17:56,122 --> 00:17:59,683
And that should come
to $49.88.
314
00:18:00,092 --> 00:18:01,821
You're charging me?
315
00:18:03,696 --> 00:18:05,994
This is not
a mechanic's shop.
316
00:18:06,265 --> 00:18:08,927
I am doing you a favor.
317
00:18:09,035 --> 00:18:11,503
So you should be willing
to pay for your own parts.
318
00:18:11,571 --> 00:18:14,540
Thomas, the man
fled the scene of the crime.
319
00:18:14,607 --> 00:18:17,474
His skin was found
under his murdered wife's
fingernails.
320
00:18:17,543 --> 00:18:19,374
The bullet taken
from her body
321
00:18:19,445 --> 00:18:21,310
matches the gun
registered in his name.
322
00:18:21,380 --> 00:18:22,608
Everyone that knew him
323
00:18:22,682 --> 00:18:27,381
said that he had a brutal,
violent, possessive temper.
324
00:18:27,453 --> 00:18:29,045
He terrorized his wife.
325
00:18:29,121 --> 00:18:30,816
I think I can prove
he killed her.
326
00:18:30,890 --> 00:18:35,520
But I'm gonna need
every single piece of evidence
I can get to put him away.
327
00:18:35,928 --> 00:18:37,919
Well, I can
call his friends,
328
00:18:37,997 --> 00:18:40,591
see if they know
his aliases.
Great!
329
00:18:40,666 --> 00:18:44,693
And check with Five-O
for fingerprints
and see what they turn up.
330
00:18:44,770 --> 00:18:45,896
Oh, it's already
taken care of.
331
00:18:45,972 --> 00:18:47,735
I'm supposed to
stop by there
this afternoon
332
00:18:47,807 --> 00:18:49,741
to see what
they've come up with,
if anything.
333
00:18:49,809 --> 00:18:51,504
T.C., you have
my change?
What are you doing?
334
00:18:51,577 --> 00:18:53,841
Don't worry about it.
I'll take it off your fee.
335
00:18:53,913 --> 00:18:55,710
Doesn't it feel good
to be able to pay your debts?
336
00:18:55,781 --> 00:18:57,772
Yeah, well,
it feels good to me.
337
00:18:58,117 --> 00:18:59,778
Oh.
338
00:19:00,820 --> 00:19:04,847
10, 11, 12 cents.
339
00:19:07,927 --> 00:19:09,224
Island Hoppers.
340
00:19:09,629 --> 00:19:10,789
Maybe we'll get lucky.
341
00:19:10,863 --> 00:19:13,423
Maybe he'll just call us up
and tell us his name.
342
00:19:13,499 --> 00:19:16,559
You'll find it,
super-sleuth.
I know you will.
343
00:19:18,037 --> 00:19:22,201
Hey, Tom. Some guy's
been calling the club
trying to find you.
344
00:19:22,274 --> 00:19:25,072
Some lawyer named
M. Barry Aldridge?
345
00:19:29,015 --> 00:19:31,142
I understand
you work for the city.
346
00:19:31,684 --> 00:19:33,743
No,
I'm a private investigator.
347
00:19:33,819 --> 00:19:35,047
Oh, is that right?
348
00:19:35,121 --> 00:19:37,487
Make a pretty good living
at it, do you?
349
00:19:38,557 --> 00:19:39,717
I get by.
350
00:19:40,660 --> 00:19:43,254
Actually, I've heard a lot
of good things about you.
351
00:19:43,329 --> 00:19:45,320
You're a top-notch
investigator,
352
00:19:45,398 --> 00:19:48,856
the kind of guy
who'd do very well
working in a firm like ours.
353
00:19:49,135 --> 00:19:53,003
Well, I'm happy
working for myself.
I like the hours.
354
00:19:53,739 --> 00:19:57,197
We handle dozens of cases
every year, big cases.
355
00:19:57,276 --> 00:19:59,972
The kind
that keep my daughters
in private school.
356
00:20:00,046 --> 00:20:01,604
As a matter of fact,
we could use someone
357
00:20:01,681 --> 00:20:04,582
who knows when a case
is worth investigating
and when it isn't.
358
00:20:13,793 --> 00:20:15,021
Mr. Aldridge,
359
00:20:16,796 --> 00:20:18,286
what are you saying?
360
00:20:19,098 --> 00:20:23,432
Well, sometimes it works
better for everyone
not to spin your wheels,
361
00:20:23,703 --> 00:20:25,330
if you follow my drift.
362
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:28,737
Wait a minute.
363
00:20:29,675 --> 00:20:32,872
You would pay me
not to investigate?
364
00:20:33,279 --> 00:20:35,008
If it was to our benefit.
365
00:20:36,849 --> 00:20:40,376
It's kind of like
a government subsidy
not to grow wheat.
366
00:20:41,987 --> 00:20:43,887
Something like that, I guess.
367
00:20:44,657 --> 00:20:46,124
So, in other words,
368
00:20:46,625 --> 00:20:49,423
let's say you had a case,
insurance fraud.
369
00:20:49,929 --> 00:20:53,387
Well, yes, that falls
within our area of expertise.
370
00:20:53,499 --> 00:20:55,330
Well, how much
would that be worth to me?
371
00:20:55,401 --> 00:20:58,962
I mean, would I be paid
on a commission basis
or hourly?
372
00:20:59,038 --> 00:21:01,768
I could spend a lot of time
not investigating.
373
00:21:02,041 --> 00:21:04,601
That would be
up to my discretion,
Mr. Magnum.
374
00:21:05,377 --> 00:21:08,312
Well,
would a murder be worth more
than a burglary, for instance?
375
00:21:08,380 --> 00:21:11,941
I mean, I'd hate to waste
my time not investigating
the penny ante stuff.
376
00:21:12,017 --> 00:21:14,315
I see we have nothing further
to discuss.
377
00:21:14,386 --> 00:21:16,684
No, no. This is
a fascinating concept.
378
00:21:16,756 --> 00:21:19,190
I just need some time
to think about it.
379
00:21:19,291 --> 00:21:21,521
You know, maybe I could
bring some cases to you.
380
00:21:21,594 --> 00:21:25,223
There's this one case that
I haven't been investigating
for nearly five years.
381
00:21:25,297 --> 00:21:27,390
Would this payment
be retroactive?
382
00:21:29,335 --> 00:21:32,202
He should be reported.
I'm going straight
to the Ethics Committee.
383
00:21:32,271 --> 00:21:35,729
He didn't say anything.
We were alone and he didn't
say anything incriminating.
384
00:21:35,808 --> 00:21:37,400
He should be taken
off the case!
385
00:21:37,476 --> 00:21:39,171
Will you calm down?
You're getting all rattled.
386
00:21:39,245 --> 00:21:40,405
That's exactly what he wants.
387
00:21:40,479 --> 00:21:42,777
Now, come on, calm down.
All right, all right.
388
00:21:42,848 --> 00:21:44,679
You're right. I'm calm.
Good.
389
00:21:44,750 --> 00:21:47,184
I just wish
I would've been there,
that's all.
390
00:21:47,820 --> 00:21:49,981
I think
we've got a match.
391
00:21:50,790 --> 00:21:53,657
Oh, Thomas, look.
He's our guy!
392
00:21:54,527 --> 00:21:55,926
His name is Randy Lewis.
393
00:21:55,995 --> 00:21:57,929
He was arrested
as he reported to work.
394
00:21:57,997 --> 00:22:02,957
Mr. Lucky's Casino,
Atlantic City.
Booking number 82015112.
395
00:22:03,335 --> 00:22:06,361
Suspicion of murder.
His wife.
396
00:22:06,705 --> 00:22:08,366
He was acquitted!
397
00:22:08,674 --> 00:22:11,837
Looks like he has
a whole string of assault
and battery arrests.
398
00:22:11,911 --> 00:22:13,401
And no convictions.
399
00:22:13,479 --> 00:22:14,741
Right.
400
00:22:15,381 --> 00:22:16,643
Thomas Magnum.
401
00:22:17,883 --> 00:22:20,283
Hi, Lieutenant.
Yeah, I heard
you were in here.
402
00:22:20,352 --> 00:22:22,081
Say, what's with you?
403
00:22:22,288 --> 00:22:24,313
You've been stepping
on some toes again.
404
00:22:24,390 --> 00:22:27,325
We just heard that
some very important people
405
00:22:27,393 --> 00:22:29,691
are after your license.
406
00:22:30,029 --> 00:22:33,089
Finding him
at the girlfriend's house
could be damaging.
407
00:22:33,833 --> 00:22:35,528
Perhaps we could send her
on a vacation?
408
00:22:35,601 --> 00:22:38,536
Someplace where
the prosecution can't find her
to make a deposition.
409
00:22:38,604 --> 00:22:40,003
Call off the hearing,
Aldridge.
410
00:22:40,072 --> 00:22:42,336
Mr. Aldridge,
I tried to tell him
you were busy.
411
00:22:42,408 --> 00:22:44,638
Mr. Magnum,
we are preparing a case.
412
00:22:44,710 --> 00:22:46,905
Now, we really don't have
any more time for banter,
413
00:22:46,979 --> 00:22:48,241
as amusing as you are.
414
00:22:48,314 --> 00:22:51,044
You got no grounds
for trying to pull my license.
415
00:22:51,884 --> 00:22:54,478
Well, let's see.
What about misrepresentation,
416
00:22:54,553 --> 00:22:57,920
conflict of interest,
unethical conduct,
just to name a few?
417
00:22:58,691 --> 00:23:00,090
You should have thought
of the consequences
418
00:23:00,159 --> 00:23:01,456
before you barged
into my office
419
00:23:01,527 --> 00:23:03,893
and tried to bully information
out of me about my client.
420
00:23:03,963 --> 00:23:06,659
I never talked
about your client.
You called me.
421
00:23:09,735 --> 00:23:11,930
I have no record
of our calling him.
422
00:23:16,809 --> 00:23:20,939
You're going to testify
under oath at a court hearing
that you didn't call me?
423
00:23:21,013 --> 00:23:23,038
Perhaps I won't have to
testify at all.
424
00:23:23,115 --> 00:23:24,810
It seems to me there are
a number of witnesses
425
00:23:24,884 --> 00:23:27,284
that can attest
to your abusive behavior.
426
00:23:32,758 --> 00:23:35,989
It doesn't matter whether
I investigate this case
or someone else does.
427
00:23:36,061 --> 00:23:38,256
You can't stop the process,
Aldridge.
428
00:23:38,330 --> 00:23:40,423
Your client
is going on trial,
429
00:23:40,499 --> 00:23:43,991
and it'll be up to a jury
to decide whether he's guilty
or innocent, not you.
430
00:23:44,069 --> 00:23:47,470
My client's guilt
or innocence is not really
any of my concern.
431
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,775
My only concern is to see
that he's not convicted.
432
00:23:51,043 --> 00:23:53,136
And by the way,
the frosting on the cake
433
00:23:53,212 --> 00:23:55,680
is that I get to see
your license revoked.
434
00:23:55,881 --> 00:23:58,873
Now, I really hope you have
some other way of earning
a living, Mr. Magnum,
435
00:23:58,951 --> 00:24:01,852
because your days
as a private investigator
are over.
436
00:24:42,328 --> 00:24:44,853
Exactly what
is the meaning of this?
437
00:24:45,531 --> 00:24:47,556
Well, it's a little hard
to tell in the dark,
438
00:24:47,633 --> 00:24:49,828
but those look like
the keys to my car,
439
00:24:49,902 --> 00:24:53,133
a car I bought with earnings
from this very important case
440
00:24:53,205 --> 00:24:54,797
that I've been working on,
441
00:24:54,873 --> 00:24:58,309
because you, in a moment
of petty and impulsive
vindictiveness,
442
00:24:58,377 --> 00:25:01,073
a moment so unworthy
of you, Higgins,
443
00:25:01,146 --> 00:25:03,376
you took away my rights
to the Ferrari.
444
00:25:03,449 --> 00:25:04,939
Well, you're going
to have to do
something about it.
445
00:25:05,017 --> 00:25:06,484
It was belching
exhaust fumes
446
00:25:06,552 --> 00:25:07,644
all over
the Duchess of Wellington.
447
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,551
Was? You didn't turn it off?
Of course I did.
448
00:25:09,621 --> 00:25:11,418
If you turned it off,
it won't start again!
449
00:25:11,490 --> 00:25:13,219
It was fouling
the rose garden.
450
00:25:13,292 --> 00:25:15,385
We're going back
to a strict regimen,
Magnum.
451
00:25:15,461 --> 00:25:17,190
You may as well
accept it.
452
00:25:19,832 --> 00:25:20,992
My God.
453
00:25:23,168 --> 00:25:25,193
What happened
to that poor woman?
454
00:25:25,637 --> 00:25:28,663
Her husband.
He's being charged
with her murder.
455
00:25:31,643 --> 00:25:34,874
Do these photographs
look funny to you, Higgins?
456
00:25:34,947 --> 00:25:39,077
I don't know whether
it's the light or the pose.
I don't know.
457
00:25:48,527 --> 00:25:50,017
Take a look at this.
458
00:25:50,329 --> 00:25:52,297
The lower
right-hand corner.
459
00:25:53,332 --> 00:25:55,698
This is a photograph
of a photograph.
460
00:25:56,035 --> 00:25:57,627
They've been doctored.
461
00:25:58,437 --> 00:26:00,667
That's a very distinct
possibility.
462
00:26:03,642 --> 00:26:06,076
I don't believe it.
How did she do it?
463
00:26:06,145 --> 00:26:09,740
Well, looks like
she took an existing
photograph,
464
00:26:09,815 --> 00:26:11,874
darkened it in areas
to look like bruises,
465
00:26:11,950 --> 00:26:16,080
and then took a photograph
of that so we couldn't tell
it was tampered with.
466
00:26:16,155 --> 00:26:17,747
But even the negatives
are perfect.
467
00:26:19,091 --> 00:26:20,285
Almost.
468
00:26:20,826 --> 00:26:23,727
Take a look at it. Here.
469
00:26:24,396 --> 00:26:28,093
You can just see the corner
of the original photograph
right there,
470
00:26:28,467 --> 00:26:29,695
in here.
Ah!
471
00:26:31,470 --> 00:26:33,665
Oh, that poor woman.
Yeah.
472
00:26:33,739 --> 00:26:36,230
That poor woman
gave you false evidence.
473
00:26:36,308 --> 00:26:39,334
Well, she's probably
too scared
to leave anything to chance.
474
00:26:39,845 --> 00:26:41,335
I know how she feels.
475
00:26:43,782 --> 00:26:47,548
Oh, Thomas, it's like
I have opening-night jitters.
476
00:26:48,387 --> 00:26:50,617
I keep having
this recurring dream.
477
00:26:51,457 --> 00:26:52,754
I dream that...
478
00:26:53,959 --> 00:26:55,620
You promise you won't laugh?
479
00:26:56,161 --> 00:26:57,628
Not even a snicker.
480
00:26:59,665 --> 00:27:01,030
In my dream,
481
00:27:01,567 --> 00:27:04,798
I get to court,
I open my briefcase,
482
00:27:05,270 --> 00:27:08,000
and I have nothing in it
except blank paper.
483
00:27:10,142 --> 00:27:12,133
You promised
you wouldn't laugh!
484
00:27:14,446 --> 00:27:17,313
I just keep thinking
that there's something
I haven't locked down,
485
00:27:17,382 --> 00:27:20,146
some loophole that Aldridge
will pull his client through
486
00:27:20,219 --> 00:27:21,948
and it'll be all my fault.
487
00:27:22,754 --> 00:27:24,016
I couldn't
concentrate yesterday,
488
00:27:24,089 --> 00:27:25,920
so I went for a walk
down to Queen Emma Street,
489
00:27:25,991 --> 00:27:27,856
and I'm just standing there,
490
00:27:27,926 --> 00:27:31,919
and I stood and I stared
at that courthouse
for the longest time.
491
00:27:34,299 --> 00:27:36,494
Well, anyway,
it made me feel better.
492
00:27:36,768 --> 00:27:38,030
Carol,
493
00:27:39,738 --> 00:27:42,172
maybe we should talk
to the little girl.
494
00:27:43,175 --> 00:27:44,199
No.
495
00:27:45,544 --> 00:27:48,479
She might remember something
that would lead us
to the weapon.
496
00:27:48,547 --> 00:27:50,777
And then what do we do?
We put her on the stand?
497
00:27:50,849 --> 00:27:53,647
Aldridge is gonna pull
every trick in the book
to get Bowman off.
498
00:27:53,719 --> 00:27:55,050
And you wanna play
by his rules?
499
00:27:55,120 --> 00:27:57,816
I don't want this guy
walking away.
Well, neither do I.
500
00:27:57,890 --> 00:27:59,255
Look, as a lawyer,
I can tell you
501
00:27:59,324 --> 00:28:00,723
that she's not
a reliable witness.
502
00:28:00,792 --> 00:28:03,352
She's too young,
she's too traumatized.
503
00:28:03,428 --> 00:28:06,295
There's no telling
what Aldridge would get her
to say.
504
00:28:06,365 --> 00:28:08,993
And the truth of it
is that most lawyers
would put her on the stand.
505
00:28:09,067 --> 00:28:13,231
I can't, Thomas.
I just can't ask her
to relive that night.
506
00:28:14,206 --> 00:28:16,674
We have enough
without her testimony.
507
00:28:16,742 --> 00:28:18,209
And I am now going
to go home
508
00:28:18,277 --> 00:28:20,609
and I'm gonna memorize it
all one more time.
509
00:28:20,679 --> 00:28:22,078
Thanks for supper.
510
00:28:23,448 --> 00:28:26,611
And don't worry
about it, Thomas.
We'll get him.
511
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:29,748
Yeah, I know.
512
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,650
Part of me knew that Carol
was absolutely right.
513
00:29:05,090 --> 00:29:08,856
But part of me couldn't
put aside the price we'd pay
if she was wrong.
514
00:29:11,029 --> 00:29:14,430
I wasn't sure
how I was going to get in
to see the little girl
515
00:29:14,967 --> 00:29:17,561
or what I was going to say
if I did see her.
516
00:29:18,570 --> 00:29:21,596
But I knew
I had to at least play it out.
517
00:29:27,946 --> 00:29:29,072
Hi.
518
00:29:35,287 --> 00:29:38,654
Nana isn't here.
She's inside.
519
00:29:39,091 --> 00:29:41,423
Well, maybe I could talk
to you.
520
00:29:43,061 --> 00:29:45,120
Are you going
to take my picture?
521
00:29:47,499 --> 00:29:48,898
Do you want me to?
522
00:29:56,708 --> 00:29:58,471
I saw you before.
523
00:30:00,178 --> 00:30:04,308
Nana says you're going
to make Greg go to jail
for a long time.
524
00:30:13,125 --> 00:30:14,456
Do you know why?
525
00:30:17,763 --> 00:30:19,253
He hurt Mommy.
526
00:30:24,569 --> 00:30:27,629
Did you see him do that?
527
00:30:30,142 --> 00:30:32,133
I'm not supposed to tell.
528
00:30:39,985 --> 00:30:42,749
Well, I think
it would be all right
to tell me.
529
00:30:45,123 --> 00:30:47,523
No, it's all right.
You don't have to do that.
530
00:30:47,592 --> 00:30:48,889
It's all right.
531
00:30:54,700 --> 00:30:56,600
They were yelling
and yelling,
532
00:30:59,404 --> 00:31:01,031
and he hit her,
533
00:31:03,175 --> 00:31:05,268
and all the books fell down,
534
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:09,445
and then he left.
535
00:31:11,249 --> 00:31:13,012
And I tried to hug her,
536
00:31:13,752 --> 00:31:15,344
but she pushed me away.
537
00:31:18,457 --> 00:31:20,789
She told me to go to bed
538
00:31:22,194 --> 00:31:23,684
and she...
539
00:31:25,497 --> 00:31:27,158
Then she...
540
00:31:28,567 --> 00:31:30,626
She picked up the gun.
541
00:31:32,838 --> 00:31:34,328
After he left?
542
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,733
And it made a loud noise.
543
00:31:39,745 --> 00:31:43,545
And my mommy died.
My mommy died!
544
00:31:49,287 --> 00:31:50,584
It's okay.
545
00:31:52,791 --> 00:31:54,520
What have you done?
546
00:32:13,678 --> 00:32:15,009
She's sleeping.
547
00:32:19,885 --> 00:32:22,012
My daughter
was an only child,
548
00:32:22,654 --> 00:32:24,087
and she was spoiled.
549
00:32:24,156 --> 00:32:26,386
She was used to having
her own way.
550
00:32:26,458 --> 00:32:29,916
And Lord knows,
she had a lot of problems.
551
00:32:31,530 --> 00:32:33,760
But she didn't deserve
to die.
552
00:32:34,132 --> 00:32:36,396
Railroading Bowman
isn't gonna change that.
553
00:32:36,468 --> 00:32:37,958
The fact that
he didn't kill her
554
00:32:38,036 --> 00:32:39,901
is simply an accident
of timing.
555
00:32:39,971 --> 00:32:43,429
I wish to God I had pictures
556
00:32:43,942 --> 00:32:46,467
of every time he beat her up.
557
00:32:48,380 --> 00:32:49,608
But you don't.
558
00:32:49,681 --> 00:32:51,148
He tricked us, all of us,
559
00:32:51,216 --> 00:32:53,309
took us in
and then betrayed us.
560
00:32:53,385 --> 00:32:54,716
He robbed us of everything
561
00:32:54,786 --> 00:32:56,219
that was good
about this family.
562
00:32:56,288 --> 00:32:57,915
He belongs behind bars.
563
00:32:57,989 --> 00:33:00,719
Not for murder.
Yes, for murder!
564
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,751
He killed his first wife.
565
00:33:03,829 --> 00:33:05,558
He was acquitted!
He was guilty!
566
00:33:05,630 --> 00:33:07,120
You don't know that!
567
00:33:09,501 --> 00:33:11,969
This is a recording
568
00:33:12,471 --> 00:33:15,201
my granddaughter was making
for my birthday.
569
00:33:15,307 --> 00:33:18,276
I found it
still in the tape recorder
the next morning.
570
00:33:18,343 --> 00:33:20,174
Don't!
571
00:33:21,346 --> 00:33:23,644
I'll call the police.
You leave
and I'll call the police!
572
00:33:23,715 --> 00:33:26,275
You humiliate me
one more time
and I'll kill you.
573
00:33:27,519 --> 00:33:30,147
Big man.
Big, scary man!
574
00:33:31,122 --> 00:33:34,114
I swear I'll kill you.
I got away with it before.
575
00:33:34,192 --> 00:33:35,489
Don't push me.
576
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:36,686
I'll do it again!
577
00:33:38,196 --> 00:33:39,823
Oh, don't hurt me.
578
00:33:46,137 --> 00:33:49,004
Big man.
Big, scary man!
579
00:33:49,708 --> 00:33:53,041
I swear I'll kill you.
I got away with it before.
580
00:33:53,111 --> 00:33:54,510
Don't push me.
581
00:33:54,579 --> 00:33:55,773
I'll do it again!
582
00:33:59,618 --> 00:34:01,483
He leaves right after that.
583
00:34:03,455 --> 00:34:06,788
Then my daughter's suicide
is also recorded,
584
00:34:07,058 --> 00:34:10,926
establishing, of course,
that at least this time,
he was not responsible.
585
00:34:11,563 --> 00:34:15,522
When I found Debbie,
I wiped her fingerprints
off the gun,
586
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,127
threw it
into the trash compactor,
and I called the police.
587
00:34:20,639 --> 00:34:23,164
I didn't think,
until much later,
588
00:34:23,642 --> 00:34:25,769
about fixing the photographs.
589
00:34:30,248 --> 00:34:32,614
You take it with you,
Mr. Magnum.
590
00:34:32,684 --> 00:34:36,120
Listen to it
as many times as I have
591
00:34:36,187 --> 00:34:40,851
and then tell me
if what I did was wrong.
592
00:34:44,229 --> 00:34:47,221
How'd the hearing go?
They gonna get your license?
593
00:34:47,299 --> 00:34:50,132
Aldridge withdrew the charges.
Hit-and-run tactic.
594
00:34:50,235 --> 00:34:51,862
How you doing?
595
00:34:52,637 --> 00:34:55,333
Well, the jury selection
went faster than I expected.
596
00:34:55,407 --> 00:34:58,467
He's rushing me,
hoping to push me off balance.
597
00:34:59,477 --> 00:35:01,411
Well, you're too wily
for that.
598
00:35:03,248 --> 00:35:04,476
I was gonna call you later.
599
00:35:04,549 --> 00:35:06,540
I've got you
on the docket tomorrow.
600
00:35:06,618 --> 00:35:08,518
I'm gonna be introducing
the tire track pictures,
601
00:35:08,587 --> 00:35:11,112
so you'll have to explain
how you went about
taking them,
602
00:35:11,189 --> 00:35:15,455
how you know that they match
the tires on the Rolls,
all that stuff. Okay?
603
00:35:15,527 --> 00:35:17,017
Is tomorrow all right?
604
00:35:17,095 --> 00:35:19,893
Carol, the tracks
don't prove anything.
605
00:35:19,965 --> 00:35:21,694
You don't need me to testify.
606
00:35:21,766 --> 00:35:25,429
When you've built a case
on overwhelming
circumstantial evidence,
607
00:35:25,503 --> 00:35:27,403
you need to present
every piece
608
00:35:27,472 --> 00:35:30,270
of that overwhelming
circumstantial evidence.
609
00:35:30,342 --> 00:35:32,469
I know the tire tracks
aren't important
by themselves,
610
00:35:32,544 --> 00:35:35,172
but they do corroborate
the neighbor's testimony.
611
00:35:36,748 --> 00:35:38,613
I... I just don't know.
612
00:35:38,683 --> 00:35:41,550
Oh, come on, Thomas.
Don't hang me up.
613
00:35:42,053 --> 00:35:43,645
I'll see you tomorrow.
614
00:35:50,962 --> 00:35:54,693
Private investigators
often work right
on the fringes of the law.
615
00:35:54,766 --> 00:35:57,291
As a private citizen,
I had no legal obligation
616
00:35:57,369 --> 00:35:59,428
to tell anyone
that Bowman was innocent.
617
00:35:59,504 --> 00:36:02,962
But what about the moral
and ethical obligations?
618
00:36:03,708 --> 00:36:06,438
I wanted time
to make the right decision,
619
00:36:06,511 --> 00:36:10,641
but it was clear
I wasn't in control
of how much time I'd have,
620
00:36:11,049 --> 00:36:13,574
or of anything else,
for that matter.
621
00:36:16,721 --> 00:36:19,087
These are superb specimens,
Kenji.
622
00:36:19,157 --> 00:36:22,456
They'll look
absolutely magnificent
once they're planted.
623
00:36:22,527 --> 00:36:26,019
It will be comforting
living once again
in an ordered universe.
624
00:37:00,365 --> 00:37:01,855
Hi, Thomas.
625
00:37:01,933 --> 00:37:04,595
I'm sorry if I was
kind of short with you today.
626
00:37:04,669 --> 00:37:07,297
I guess I'm a little nervous
about the case.
627
00:37:07,439 --> 00:37:09,999
Will you call me back?
I need to talk to you.
628
00:37:20,652 --> 00:37:22,517
All right, Magnum,
what is it that you want?
629
00:37:22,587 --> 00:37:23,815
Well, I was hoping
I had butter,
630
00:37:23,888 --> 00:37:25,583
but I guess I'll just
have to eat it plain.
631
00:37:25,657 --> 00:37:28,421
Don't be flippant.
I'm referring to
that collection of scrap metal
632
00:37:28,493 --> 00:37:31,894
and baling wire
that you so whimsically
call your car.
633
00:37:31,963 --> 00:37:33,453
What do you want
to get rid of it?
634
00:37:33,531 --> 00:37:36,728
I would love to get
rid of it, Higgins,
but I can't.
635
00:37:36,801 --> 00:37:38,860
The guy who sold it to me
won't take it back,
636
00:37:38,937 --> 00:37:40,802
and if I sell it as is,
I'll lose money,
637
00:37:40,872 --> 00:37:44,000
so I guess I'll just
have to take it to T.C.
For another look.
638
00:37:44,075 --> 00:37:45,303
Popcorn?
No.
639
00:37:45,877 --> 00:37:48,277
It's perfectly obvious
what you're doing.
640
00:37:48,346 --> 00:37:49,745
You're resisting
my plan
641
00:37:49,814 --> 00:37:51,179
to go back
to a military regimen.
642
00:37:51,249 --> 00:37:54,377
This is all
an elaborate trick
to get the Ferrari back.
643
00:37:54,452 --> 00:37:57,012
But it won't...
Aren't you going
to answer your phone?
644
00:37:57,088 --> 00:37:59,181
No.
As I was saying,
it won't work.
645
00:37:59,257 --> 00:38:01,020
It's not a trick.
And don't answer my phone.
646
00:38:01,092 --> 00:38:02,423
You can't just
let it ring endlessly.
647
00:38:02,494 --> 00:38:04,155
Don't answer my phone!
648
00:38:05,096 --> 00:38:08,224
Hey, Thomas, if you're worried
about testifying,
649
00:38:08,299 --> 00:38:10,665
we can talk about
what you're going to say.
650
00:38:10,735 --> 00:38:14,694
But at least call me
and let me know you're going
to be there tomorrow.
651
00:38:14,906 --> 00:38:16,931
Okay? Please?
652
00:38:17,709 --> 00:38:20,007
I don't know what else to say.
Call me.
653
00:38:22,881 --> 00:38:24,815
You're worried
about testifying tomorrow?
654
00:38:25,683 --> 00:38:27,480
I don't think I'm going to.
655
00:38:29,420 --> 00:38:31,786
Trial by jury is one
of the cornerstones
656
00:38:31,856 --> 00:38:33,517
of democracy.
I know that, Higgins.
657
00:38:33,591 --> 00:38:36,321
And yet you would
avoid your civic duty?
658
00:38:39,364 --> 00:38:41,059
Well, what would you do?
659
00:38:42,133 --> 00:38:46,593
I just found out this guy
killed his first wife
and was acquitted.
660
00:38:46,671 --> 00:38:49,162
He can never be tried
for that crime again.
661
00:38:54,379 --> 00:38:55,778
Well, even so,
662
00:38:56,781 --> 00:38:59,011
I realize there are flaws
in the system, but...
663
00:38:59,083 --> 00:39:02,484
But, Higgins, he's about to go
on trial for a second murder.
664
00:39:03,054 --> 00:39:06,217
Then this time, surely,
justice will prevail.
665
00:39:06,424 --> 00:39:07,686
Will it?
666
00:39:10,428 --> 00:39:13,795
I have the proof
that he didn't commit
this crime.
667
00:39:14,566 --> 00:39:16,261
Proof he doesn't
even know about.
668
00:39:16,334 --> 00:39:17,460
So what's my civic duty?
669
00:39:17,535 --> 00:39:20,732
Do I go forward
and inform the court
that he's innocent
670
00:39:20,805 --> 00:39:22,830
and let him walk away again?
671
00:39:24,742 --> 00:39:26,710
Or do I just keep quiet
672
00:39:26,778 --> 00:39:29,679
and let him go to jail
for a crime he didn't commit?
673
00:39:33,084 --> 00:39:35,917
Well, you can't
take these matters
into your own hands.
674
00:39:35,987 --> 00:39:37,716
That's vigilantism.
675
00:39:37,922 --> 00:39:39,355
That's anathema to everything
676
00:39:39,424 --> 00:39:42,325
that is civilized
and virtuous in human society.
677
00:39:42,694 --> 00:39:44,559
It might also be justice.
678
00:39:47,432 --> 00:39:49,161
Poetic justice, at least.
679
00:39:53,938 --> 00:39:55,405
I'll call the police!
680
00:39:55,473 --> 00:39:58,442
You humiliate me
one more time
and I'll kill you!
681
00:39:59,077 --> 00:40:02,376
Big man.
Big, scary man!
682
00:40:02,447 --> 00:40:05,314
I swear I'll kill you.
I got away with it before.
683
00:40:05,383 --> 00:40:06,975
Don't push me.
684
00:40:07,051 --> 00:40:08,382
I'll do it again!
685
00:40:18,329 --> 00:40:19,296
Hello?
686
00:40:19,364 --> 00:40:21,025
Thomas,
are you all right?
687
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,129
Carol, if I take the stand,
688
00:40:24,202 --> 00:40:25,999
what do I have to testify to?
689
00:40:26,070 --> 00:40:29,267
Just the photographs.
That's all the physical
evidence you have,
690
00:40:29,340 --> 00:40:32,036
unless you've come up
with a signed confession.
691
00:40:32,477 --> 00:40:33,967
That was a joke.
692
00:40:34,312 --> 00:40:36,507
You will be there,
won't you, Thomas?
693
00:41:04,909 --> 00:41:06,399
That's my car!
694
00:41:11,516 --> 00:41:13,347
And it is
your expert opinion
695
00:41:13,418 --> 00:41:16,649
that these tracks
were made by the tires
696
00:41:16,721 --> 00:41:19,690
which are on the Rolls-Royce
driven by the defendant?
697
00:41:20,124 --> 00:41:21,785
Yes.
Thank you.
698
00:41:28,399 --> 00:41:31,698
Mr. Magnum,
how long have you been
a private investigator?
699
00:41:31,769 --> 00:41:32,963
Object.
700
00:41:33,404 --> 00:41:36,498
Overruled.
The witness will answer
the question.
701
00:41:36,808 --> 00:41:38,400
About six years.
702
00:41:38,676 --> 00:41:39,904
About six years.
703
00:41:39,978 --> 00:41:43,311
And before that, you were
in naval intelligence,
is that correct?
704
00:41:43,381 --> 00:41:46,873
Your Honor, I...
Establishing the credibility
of the witness, Your Honor.
705
00:41:46,951 --> 00:41:49,852
Something the prosecution
has already managed to do.
706
00:41:54,859 --> 00:41:55,848
May I?
707
00:41:58,129 --> 00:42:02,031
These tire tracks,
Mr. Magnum,
708
00:42:02,100 --> 00:42:03,897
they're very impressive.
709
00:42:05,403 --> 00:42:07,837
Is this the kind of work
you did for your country?
710
00:42:07,905 --> 00:42:09,338
Your Honor, I object.
711
00:42:09,407 --> 00:42:10,999
Withdraw the question.
712
00:42:12,877 --> 00:42:15,539
Mr. Magnum, you testified
that these tracks
713
00:42:15,613 --> 00:42:19,413
match the tread on the tires
of the Rolls-Royce
driven by the defendant
714
00:42:19,550 --> 00:42:22,610
on the evening
of July 18th of this year,
is that correct?
715
00:42:22,687 --> 00:42:23,745
Yes.
716
00:42:24,522 --> 00:42:25,784
I see.
717
00:42:26,124 --> 00:42:29,787
Can you pinpoint for me
the exact hour
that those tracks were made?
718
00:42:30,695 --> 00:42:31,719
No.
719
00:42:32,830 --> 00:42:34,127
I see.
720
00:42:34,198 --> 00:42:37,429
Or, perhaps, who was driving
the car the night the tracks
were left in the mud?
721
00:42:37,502 --> 00:42:40,198
Can your photographs
tell us that?
No.
722
00:42:40,271 --> 00:42:41,670
Your Honor, I object.
723
00:42:41,739 --> 00:42:44,902
Yet this is the only
physical evidence that
you bring into this courtroom
724
00:42:44,976 --> 00:42:47,604
to tie this man to a crime
he did not commit.
725
00:42:47,678 --> 00:42:48,872
No.
726
00:42:51,249 --> 00:42:52,341
What?
727
00:42:52,417 --> 00:42:55,784
No, it is not the only
physical evidence I have
728
00:42:55,853 --> 00:42:57,753
of the events of that evening.
729
00:43:11,269 --> 00:43:13,396
No further questions,
Your Honor.
730
00:43:13,504 --> 00:43:16,200
I'm trying to answer
the question you asked me.
731
00:43:16,707 --> 00:43:19,437
Your Honor, we request
a brief recess.
732
00:43:20,344 --> 00:43:23,745
The witness
will be allowed to answer
the question, Counselor.
733
00:43:25,183 --> 00:43:30,143
I have a tape recording
of the defendant
and the victim...
734
00:43:30,254 --> 00:43:32,154
No!
You're not going anywhere!
735
00:43:32,223 --> 00:43:33,349
...the night
that she was killed.
736
00:43:33,424 --> 00:43:36,018
Your Honor,
there is no foundation laid
for this evidence
737
00:43:36,094 --> 00:43:37,789
before anything
can be played here.
738
00:43:39,597 --> 00:43:42,065
I'll call the police.
You leave
and I'll call the police!
739
00:43:42,133 --> 00:43:44,761
You humiliate me
one more time
and I'll kill you!
740
00:43:45,970 --> 00:43:48,370
Big man.
Big, scary man!
741
00:43:48,439 --> 00:43:51,465
Objection! Objection!
Objection!
I swear I'll kill you.
742
00:43:51,642 --> 00:43:53,803
I got away with it before.
Don't push me.
743
00:43:53,878 --> 00:43:55,743
I'll do it again!
744
00:43:56,514 --> 00:43:57,845
Your Honor...
745
00:43:57,915 --> 00:43:59,883
Objection sustained.
746
00:44:00,184 --> 00:44:02,175
Testimony will be struck
from the record,
747
00:44:02,253 --> 00:44:05,086
and the jury is admonished
to disregard it.
748
00:44:05,990 --> 00:44:08,356
I will meet with counsel
in my chambers.
749
00:44:12,263 --> 00:44:14,163
You will join us, Mr. Magnum.
750
00:44:29,514 --> 00:44:32,972
Your conduct
in court today
was absolutely inexcusable.
751
00:44:34,252 --> 00:44:37,187
This is hardly the first time
you've testified
in a court of law.
752
00:44:37,255 --> 00:44:40,656
You know better than
to bring unsubstantiated tapes
to the witness stand.
753
00:44:40,725 --> 00:44:43,558
Your Honor, you didn't hear
what was on the rest
of the tape.
754
00:44:43,628 --> 00:44:44,890
I believe if you listen to...
755
00:44:44,962 --> 00:44:47,522
Hearsay evidence, Your Honor.
There's no way of knowing
whether that tape
756
00:44:47,598 --> 00:44:49,589
has been altered
or manufactured.
It hasn't.
757
00:44:49,667 --> 00:44:52,864
It's an unproven,
unknown voice and therefore
it's inadmissible.
758
00:44:52,937 --> 00:44:56,065
The little girl can verify
the conversation, Your Honor.
759
00:44:56,140 --> 00:44:57,232
Your Honor!
760
00:44:57,308 --> 00:44:58,775
I'll hear the tape.
761
00:45:01,512 --> 00:45:03,104
This is set on record.
762
00:45:07,818 --> 00:45:11,584
Your conduct in court
was absolutely inexcusable.
763
00:45:12,023 --> 00:45:14,924
This is hardly the first time
you've testified
in a court of law.
764
00:45:14,992 --> 00:45:18,359
You know better than
to bring unsubstantiated tapes
to the witness stand.
765
00:45:18,429 --> 00:45:21,023
Your Honor,
you didn't hear what was
on the rest of the tape.
766
00:45:21,098 --> 00:45:23,532
I believe if you listen to...
- Hearsay...
767
00:45:28,272 --> 00:45:29,796
Your Honor, I don't know
how that happened.
768
00:45:29,874 --> 00:45:31,739
I thought
I was turning it off.
769
00:45:31,809 --> 00:45:33,743
I mean, the buttons
are so close together.
770
00:45:33,811 --> 00:45:35,642
I'll tell you what was on
the rest of the tape.
771
00:45:35,713 --> 00:45:36,941
There's no foundation.
772
00:45:37,014 --> 00:45:39,676
I'd think there'd be
an exception made
in this instance,
773
00:45:39,750 --> 00:45:42,275
given the fact that evidence
has been destroyed.
774
00:45:42,853 --> 00:45:46,755
Even if we had the tape,
it'd be hard to establish
a foundation for its accuracy.
775
00:45:46,824 --> 00:45:47,848
But, Your Honor, if you...
776
00:45:47,925 --> 00:45:50,291
I'm afraid
I'm going to have to rule
for the defense.
777
00:45:51,462 --> 00:45:53,726
But I wanna make
one thing perfectly clear.
778
00:45:53,798 --> 00:45:56,528
There will be
no more theatrics
in my courtroom.
779
00:45:58,903 --> 00:46:00,131
Now, we'll recess
780
00:46:00,204 --> 00:46:03,105
while I consider
the ramification
of the altered tape,
781
00:46:03,174 --> 00:46:05,369
and then we'll resume
in an hour.
782
00:46:14,218 --> 00:46:16,516
Looks like you outsmarted me
after all.
783
00:46:21,993 --> 00:46:24,018
Thomas...
Let's go for a walk.
784
00:46:37,108 --> 00:46:39,633
Did you ever find yourself
in a position
785
00:46:39,710 --> 00:46:42,873
where you decide
to do the right thing,
786
00:46:43,514 --> 00:46:47,177
no matter how hard it is,
and then you go and do it
787
00:46:48,119 --> 00:46:52,146
and something else happens,
something entirely different
788
00:46:52,223 --> 00:46:54,350
than what you thought
would happen,
789
00:46:54,558 --> 00:46:57,618
and it turns out that that,
in an odd sort of way,
790
00:46:57,695 --> 00:47:01,358
is probably more right
than what you had in mind
in the first place?
791
00:47:02,233 --> 00:47:04,861
You wanna run that by me
one more time?
792
00:47:05,336 --> 00:47:07,497
No, I think
I better leave it alone.
793
00:47:07,972 --> 00:47:10,634
What do you think
the chances are
of a conviction?
794
00:47:10,708 --> 00:47:13,575
If the judge doesn't declare
a mistrial, real good.
795
00:47:13,678 --> 00:47:16,169
The jury was very impressed
with that tape.
796
00:47:17,782 --> 00:47:19,181
Thomas,
797
00:47:21,285 --> 00:47:24,812
it's better if I don't ask
what was on the rest
of that tape?
798
00:47:32,596 --> 00:47:34,530
Let's take a walk
down Queen Emma Street.
799
00:47:34,598 --> 00:47:36,964
There's a great view
of the courthouse
from the corner.
800
00:47:39,270 --> 00:47:40,498
Come on.
