00:00Once upon a time, there were three little girls who went to the police academy.
00:18And they were each assigned very hazardous duties.
00:24But I took them away from all that, and now they work for me.
00:27My name is Charlie.
01:27Okay, now the ceremony.
01:47First, the ears.
01:49And now, the tail.
01:52Olé!
01:53And now the rest of it.
01:55Not yet. Not till you're posing for the centerfold.
01:57A toast to the next feline centerfold.
02:01May you find fame, fortune, and not catch cold from overexposure.
02:06Ladies, ladies, what are you doing?
02:08It's after three o'clock. Now come on, I want to close up.
02:11Come on, come on, come on. Party's over.
02:13There is a time to finish the feline group.
02:30You remember me when you become a big star, okay?
02:33Sure do.
02:35Bye-bye.
02:53So, did you forget something?
02:56Who's there?
03:11What about his hair?
03:37This secrecy's gone on long enough.
03:40How tall is Charlie? What color is odd?
03:42Now, now, ladies, you know I cannot divulge anything.
03:45Could you at least tell us his shirt size?
03:47How else are we going to get him a present for his birthday?
03:50His birthday? Where were you when it was my birthday?
03:52Nobody asked about that. Nobody.
03:56Hello.
03:57Oh, yes, Charlie.
03:58The girls are all here.
04:00Good morning, angels.
04:01Good morning, Charlie.
04:02Sorry to get you up so early.
04:04That's all right. Bosley said it was important.
04:06It is.
04:07A feline just picked to be the next centerfold was killed at the club last night.
04:11Wait a second. Wasn't one of those girls murdered last month?
04:14That's right.
04:15Same M.O.?
04:16Right again.
04:17Both girls died of chloroform poisoning, with an added touch.
04:21They were found with their hair completely cut off.
04:26Do the police have any theories?
04:28Somebody who hates felines.
04:30How about somebody who hates me?
04:32Angels, meet Tony Mann,
04:34publisher of Feline Magazine and board chairman of the Feline Enterprises.
04:38Tony, Jill Monroe.
04:40Hi.
04:41Sabrina Duncan.
04:42Hello.
04:43Hi.
04:44Kelly Garrett.
04:45Well, you're all just as beautiful as I heard you were.
04:47I was about to explain that your empire has been having some trouble lately.
04:51Trouble? I would call it calculated disaster.
04:53Like what?
04:55Equipment breakdowns, arson,
04:57busboys walking out of the club on New Year's Eve, you name it, and I've had it.
05:00Now they're killing off the centerfolds.
05:02That's where you come in.
05:03The centerfolds?
05:04Kelly, when you took this job, you knew there'd be a lot of undercover work.
05:08That's not undercover. That's not any cover at all.
05:11Well, we'll only need one of you, and I'd hate to make that decision.
05:15So, Bosley, if you will, the short one wins.
05:20There.
05:30Charlie, call that winning?
05:33I haven't posed in the nude since I was six months old.
05:44Okay, now arch your back as much as possible.
05:46That's right. Now bend your knees,
05:49raising your left heel while you bend.
05:51Are you sure this is necessary?
05:53Well, it's the only defense you got.
05:55Keeps you away from the customers and the customers' hands off you.
05:58Okay.
05:59Now turn around. Let's do it from the other side.
06:02Only this time with a smile.
06:04Oh, on second thought, maybe you'd better forget the smile.
06:07You're supposed to tantalize, not devastate.
06:10Thank you.
06:12Is this the new girl?
06:14Jill Monroe. Dave Earhart.
06:16Hi.
06:17Well, you keep replacing them, don't you, Paula?
06:19Same faces, same bodies.
06:21Nothing ever changes, does it?
06:23No wonder we're losing money.
06:25I haven't heard Tony complaining.
06:27Why should he? He's still living in the 60s.
06:29Bye.
06:31Who was he?
06:33Dave Earhart.
06:35Tony's right-hand man. He's a real prince.
06:37He brightens up a room just by leaving it.
06:40Yeah.
06:41I don't think too much of this idea.
06:43Look, I couldn't agree with you more,
06:45but I have to get to know your associates,
06:47and unfortunately, I couldn't come up with a better idea
06:49than posing as your roommate.
06:51Problem is, I already have one.
06:53What do you suggest that I tell her?
06:55Well, I'm sure you'll think of something.
06:57Yeah.
07:04Tony!
07:06Hi, babe.
07:08Hi.
07:10Mmm.
07:12Carmel, this is Sabrina.
07:14She's an old friend of mine,
07:16and she's going to be staying with us for a couple of days.
07:19Hey, when did this get to be Senior Citizens Week?
07:21Well, then maybe you'd like to take a little trip
07:24down to Acapulco for a while.
07:26No way.
07:28The sun's too strong down there.
07:30It ages the skin.
07:32You look like you've spent a lot of time on the beach.
07:35Me?
07:36Yeah, you're right, I have.
07:38I bet you'd like it there.
07:40Probably find somebody your own age to hang around with.
07:43What was it, Tiger?
07:45Was I too much for you?
07:47If you'd just be patient for a while.
07:49Why don't you call me when you've gotten off this geriatric kick?
07:53Uh-huh.
07:55Boy.
07:57I really hate those things.
08:00Well, I bet you've played them often enough.
08:03A few.
08:05I tell you what, cheer up.
08:07As soon as I'm out of here,
08:09you can run right down to the local high school
08:11and check out the graduating class.
08:13You don't like me very much, do you?
08:15No, no, it's not that.
08:17I just wish you'd recognize a small portion
08:20of the female population.
08:22Which portion?
08:24The ones over 20.
08:35Hello.
08:40Would you like to order dinner now?
08:42Sure, if you're on the menu.
08:44I bet you were up all night thinking of that.
08:47I mean it.
08:49What are you doing after work?
08:51No, I'm sorry, felines aren't allowed to date customers.
08:54May I see your membership key for the drinks?
08:57Thank you.
08:59Oh, there must be some mistake. This is your hotel key.
09:01No mistake, honey.
09:03It's room 419, the Parkhurst.
09:05Why don't you drop by a little later
09:07and make yourself at home?
09:09We got a little more partying to do,
09:11but I'll be back by 3.
09:13I can't.
09:20Thank you.
09:26Aha, caught you.
09:28I'll be with you in just a minute.
09:30Oh, no, you don't get away this time.
09:32I've been stalking you all night.
09:34Please.
09:36Your den or mine?
09:38Um, okay, mine.
09:41Room 419, Parkhurst Hotel.
09:43I don't get off till about 3,
09:45so why don't you just go on in and make yourself comfortable?
09:48It'll be more of a surprise that way.
09:50Ladies and gentlemen, we're very happy to present
09:53a new singing talent,
09:55Miss Kelly Garrett.
10:07Embrace me
10:10My sweet embrace
10:14Embraceable you
10:20She's really very good.
10:22You never told me she could sing.
10:24I didn't know she could.
10:26Embraceable you
10:30Just one look at you
10:35My heart grows tipsy in need
10:42You and you alone
10:46Great, isn't it, Carmel?
10:48Hey, where's the waitress over here?
10:50Give us a drink, let's go.
10:52Come on.
10:56Well, she doesn't waste any time, does she?
10:59It's called rubbing my nose in it.
11:02Who is he?
11:04His name is Danny Aletto.
11:06He's a competitor of mine.
11:07He wants to buy me up.
11:08Pour a nice big bottle of champagne for me and my lady.
11:17Don't be a naughty baby
11:23Come to mama dear
11:27She's so shy.
11:29My sweet embrace
11:32Shut up.
11:34Maybe he's trying to make a living.
11:37Everybody's trying to make a living.
11:39What's the matter with you?
11:41Just keep it down.
11:42I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
11:43You understand?
11:46Can I tell you to get away from me?
11:48Now, you heard me. Get away.
11:49Take it.
11:50Just get away.
11:56I'm fine. I'm fine.
12:04Will you get out of my club?
12:07Not yours for long, wise guy.
12:09Enjoy it while you can.
12:11Once they call that loan in, it's all over.
12:14Now, you think about it.
12:21Is that what they mean by a bang-up debut?
12:29These had to be designed by the lucky person.
12:31They're so uncomfortable.
12:33How'd it go?
12:34Well, not bad.
12:35After a week of dodging customers,
12:37I'll be quick enough for the NFL.
12:39Well, here's a chance to get away from the club for a while.
12:41Tony wants to do a magazine layout on California felines.
12:45We've done it before to hype business at the club.
12:47Interested?
12:48As long as I can keep my clothes on.
12:50No problem.
12:51Good.
12:58Jill, wait.
13:00Good night.
13:04Well, how'd that go?
13:05Well, the floor show was a little too realistic, but okay.
13:09You're very funny, you know that?
13:11You have a real nice sense of humor.
13:13Thank you.
13:14I'd, uh, I'd like to see you.
13:17Well, you saw most of me tonight.
13:19I'm not talking that way.
13:21Maybe we can go for a cup of coffee.
13:23Oh, I'm sorry, I can't.
13:25Thanks.
13:26Listen, it's always good to get in tight with the manager.
13:30I could make things easy for you.
13:33I'd really like to make things easy for you, Jill.
13:36I'd like that, too.
13:38You know, we're not supposed to date customers, employees.
13:41Come on, get off it.
13:42I saw you take that guy's key.
13:44Hey, that wasn't my fault.
13:45I mean, he forced that on me.
13:47I don't even have it.
13:48Oh, sure, sure.
13:49Victor, about my dressing room,
13:50I thought there were to be separate ones for the talent.
13:53Talent? You call yourself talent, lady?
13:55You ought to give up singing and become a stand-up comedian.
13:58Later.
14:04Looks like I interrupted something.
14:06Yeah, well, he doesn't like rejection.
14:08He doesn't like it a lot.
14:10You can tell.
14:11See you later.
14:13I looked up to my end of the bargain.
14:15What about you?
14:16Hey, this guy thinks he's invincible.
14:18It's going to take time.
14:19Time?
14:20You've seen the latest financial reports.
14:22You know the bank is making noises.
14:24In another six months, they're...
14:26Now, look, I have worked too long to get control.
14:29I'm not going to let Tony ruin it now.
14:31I'm telling you, this guy's got to be pushed slow.
14:33Oh, I'm telling you, I can't wait.
14:35But what more can you do?
14:37I can start escalating the body count.
14:53Hi.
14:55Sabrina Duncan.
14:56Dave Earhart.
14:58Well, you're the new Queen Bee.
15:00You writing an article?
15:01No, just keeping track of the cost of the photo session.
15:04I doubt that the club will do enough business to pay for it.
15:08Well, then, why bother?
15:11That's what I keep asking Tony.
15:14Why are you here?
15:16Tony invited me. I accepted.
15:18Isn't that the way it usually works?
15:19He never dates anyone over 20.
15:22Listen, I am secretly 16.
15:25Now, keep that under your hat,
15:26but I've led a very full and active life.
15:28Who are you?
15:29I'm an old friend.
15:31Make that a long-time friend.
15:33You know, I'll check you out.
15:34I'm sure you will.
15:36Good day, Miss Duncan.
15:42I ran a check on Danny Orletta this morning.
15:44His magazine's gone up in circulation as fast as Feline's gone down.
15:47But Tony said Orletta wanted to buy him out.
15:50Why?
15:51Because, overall, Feline Enterprises is a solid operation.
15:56The hotels, the magazine, they all have good growth potential.
16:00The reason that Feline's in trouble
16:01is because of the accidents that Tony just mentioned.
16:04I mean, without those,
16:05he might have been able to ride out his circulation problems.
16:08Hey, you don't know what circulation problems are
16:10until you've had on one of those Feline costumes.
16:13You have any candidates?
16:15Yeah, Victor.
16:16I mean, he comes on too strong.
16:18From what the girls say, he's tried it with everyone.
16:20Of course, he's struck out more times than the 62 Mets.
16:23And on top of that, he used to be in charge of worldwide operations.
16:27Tony's demoted him three, maybe four times.
16:30So there's no love lost there.
16:32Which brings us to Dave Earhart.
16:34Now, he makes no bones about being unhappy
16:36with the cost of the operation or the way it's being run.
16:39Now, he's very big on making memos to himself.
16:41Maybe one of us ought to drop by his house and see what we can find.
16:44You in the mood?
16:45Fine, just as long as he doesn't drop in on me while I'm there.
16:48Boz, you have a friendly diversion for him?
16:50No, but I will when you need it.
16:54Well, I gotta get going.
16:56I'll be late for my photo session.
16:58I'll be there in a few minutes
17:00to make sure they don't shoot anything in pictures here.
17:03Thanks.
17:16Where'd you say that new girl's name was?
17:18Jill. Jill Monroe.
17:20She joined the club a couple of days ago.
17:24She's lovely.
17:26What do you think, Dave? Centerfold material?
17:29Sure, Tony.
17:34Did you ask her about posing?
17:36She won't do nudes.
17:38Well, when she sees the size of the check, maybe she'll change her mind.
17:41Tony, I wish you'd forget this centerfold business for a while.
17:44At least until the police come up with something.
17:47I have a magazine to put out,
17:49and that's not gonna stop for anybody.
18:00Hello there, friend.
18:03Hey, that's not bad.
18:05Yeah, well, I didn't feel too terrific last night.
18:08I mean, I felt like an exile having to sleep in that guest room.
18:12I tell you what, tonight...
18:14Tonight, yeah.
18:16I'll take the guest room.
18:18Thanks, lady. You're all heart.
18:20Yeah.
18:39She's a doll.
18:41She's a doll.
18:45Get some close shots on Jill.
18:48Hey, honey, let's try some shots on the bowman.
18:51Oh, great. Let me just go brush my hair.
18:54Fine. Okay, ladies, thank you very, very much.
18:56Relax, everybody, okay?
19:03Thanks. Both look great.
19:12Okay.
19:14Have you ever tried one of these before?
19:16Yeah, a lot.
19:18Okay, let's do it.
19:20Smile.
19:24Oh, hi. Come on in, honey.
19:26Try some volleys.
19:41That's it.
19:45Get something real tight there.
19:54Smile.
19:56Get some long shots.
20:03That's super, honey.
20:06Jill!
20:10Jill.
20:12Somebody bring a blanket.
20:14You all right?
20:16I think so. I'm just scared.
20:18Come on in with that blanket.
20:20Tony.
20:22What?
20:24I don't know.
20:26You know, that girl has a good case for suing us.
20:29Oh, come on, David. The girl almost got killed.
20:32Thank God she's still alive.
20:34Right, right.
20:36But when the shock wears off, it could cross her mind to talk to a lawyer.
20:39Now, you were thinking about asking her to be a centerfold, right?
20:42I couldn't think of a better time.
20:47You sure you're okay?
20:49Yeah.
20:51Well, there goes our centerfold pairing.
20:53There you go.
20:55Thank you.
20:57You feel better?
20:59Yeah. I've heard about explosive service before, but that's ridiculous.
21:02Yeah. Come on. I want to talk to you a second.
21:33It's okay.
21:35No one's hiding under the bed.
21:37I really appreciate you driving me home, checking everything out.
21:40Would you like me to stay the night?
21:42No, I'll be all right. Really.
21:44Okay.
21:48Do me a favor.
21:50I know. Lock the doors. Don't let anybody in.
21:52I will.
21:54No. Call Tony.
21:56Tell him you've changed your mind.
21:58Why? You said it yourself.
22:00Being the centerfold is great.
22:02That's before they became an endangered species.
22:05Look, you were almost killed today.
22:07But that's not the centerfold thing.
22:09It happened before Tony asked me to pose.
22:11Maybe it was a warning.
22:13Before you started playing tennis today,
22:15Tony asked if we thought you'd be centerfold material.
22:18Who's we?
22:20Dave, myself, maybe the photographer's assistant.
22:23I don't know.
22:25You're a beautiful girl.
22:27Next year, the year after,
22:29you've got time.
22:31I don't want you to end up like those other two.
22:34Okay?
22:36Okay.
22:51Hello?
22:53Brie, it's Jill.
22:55The theory we thought fell apart.
22:57Uh-huh.
22:59Well, it still works.
23:01Dave Earhart knew Tony was thinking of asking me to pose.
23:03Well, that's good to know.
23:05Maybe it's time Kelly went to work.
23:07Right. I tell you what, Earhart's still here at the mansion.
23:10I'll talk to Boz and get that in motion.
23:12You call Kelly, huh?
23:14Okay, right. Bye-bye.
23:26Earhart?
23:28Dave Earhart, right?
23:30Yes.
23:32Tom Edwards, your office said I'd find you here.
23:34What can I do for you?
23:36I'm writing the biography of Tony Mann.
23:39Tony never told me he authorized any book.
23:41He didn't.
23:43This is the unauthorized version.
23:45The true version?
23:47The version of the true version.
23:49The version of the true version.
23:51The version of the true version.
23:53The true version?
23:55The version the people out there are waiting for.
23:57You mean an expose?
23:59What's Tony Mann really like, huh?
24:01I have nothing to say.
24:03Oh, no? Then I'll just make up what I want.
24:05Put your name to it. I don't care.
24:07Maybe you do.
24:12All right.
24:14I'll give you five minutes.
24:23All right.
24:42Sure, oh, sure, man.
24:44He edits a few pages, picks the centerfolds.
24:46But you are the brains behind the whole organization.
24:49Everybody knows that.
24:51How you must resent all the publicity he gets.
25:12Is it true that Mann has a different girl every night?
25:14She does not.
25:16What about the Friday night orgies?
25:18There are not.
25:20You're a crazy man. You're out of your mind.
25:22The people have a right to know where, Hart.
25:24The old cover-up doesn't work anymore.
25:26People have been sent to prison for what you're trying to do.
26:20All right.
26:51He keeps calendars the way I used to keep a diary.
26:54Every page is filled with notations he made to himself.
26:57He must keep the old calendars for tax records or something.
27:01Anyway, I remember something Tony said
27:03about a busboy's walkout on New Year's Eve.
27:06Well, Dave had it marked, but a week before it happened.
27:09So I double-checked all the dates,
27:11and I found it.
27:13It was a week before New Year's Eve.
27:15And it was a week before New Year's Eve.
27:17But a week before it happened.
27:19So I double-checked all the dates on the other accidents.
27:22He had them all marked, but in advance.
27:24So there's only one way he could have known.
27:26If he set them up.
27:28So he gets the whole operation in big money trouble,
27:31Aletto steps in and buys it cheap.
27:33And puts in Earhart to hit it up.
27:35There's just one problem.
27:37It all lays out perfectly,
27:39but it wouldn't stand up two seconds in court.
27:42Right.
27:44So we have to set him up.
27:46You guys will think of something, huh?
27:48I'm gonna head out to the mansion.
27:50What for?
27:52To tell a nice man he's been knifed by his best friend.
27:55I just don't believe it.
27:57You mean you won't believe it.
28:00Too many years.
28:03A man's like a... like a brother to me.
28:06Aw, babe.
28:09I know how you feel.
28:11No, you don't.
28:13No, you don't know how I feel. How could you?
28:15You weren't...
28:17You weren't there when this was all just one...
28:21nutty, nutty dream.
28:26I was selling classified ads on some two-bit weekly
28:30and parking cars on the side.
28:33Dave was doing income tax returns.
28:36Five bucks a crack.
28:38One night we went out and got slightly smashed
28:40and started talking about what we'd really like to be doing.
28:43Publishing a magazine.
28:46How about that?
28:48A couple of punks just out of college
28:50and we're gonna publish a magazine.
28:52The next day we start borrowing.
28:54I borrowed, he borrowed, and we were up to our ears in hock.
28:57Man, we didn't have anything for collateral.
29:00Nothing. I mean, we... we lied through our teeth.
29:03And in the beginning we did everything ourself
29:05and we had an absolute ball.
29:07I mean, we set all the layouts ourselves
29:10and we wrote the articles and we sold the advertising.
29:14And it sold.
29:18No.
29:20I don't care what it shows on any cockamamie calendar.
29:23Dave wouldn't do this.
29:25Just wouldn't do it.
29:40Tony, stay away from the bed!
29:47What's the matter?
29:49Just don't touch it.
29:58Move away from the bed. Come on.
30:02What's going on?
30:04I don't know, but I think we'd better find out.
30:11Ah!
30:18Tony, Dave has access to the whole house.
30:21To this room.
30:23So do the servants.
30:25Yeah, but they're not trying to put you out of business.
30:35Go.
30:38Do what you have to do.
30:42Mr. Earhart, this is Callie Garrett, the singer at the club.
30:47No, I won't be working tonight.
30:50I found a more lucrative source of income.
30:54You, Mr. Earhart,
30:56I found your calendar with the problems you created for Tony Mann.
31:02Blackmail is exactly what I'm talking about.
31:06How does $100,000 sound?
31:10The bank's open at 10. I thought we could meet at 11.
31:14I know the place. I'll see you there.
31:20That abandoned oil refinery on the west side.
31:23Interesting. Very deserted place.
31:27I can't imagine why.
31:35I'm beginning to have second thoughts about this place.
31:38I don't know what to do.
31:40I don't know what to do.
31:42I don't know what to do.
31:44I don't know what to do.
31:46I don't know what to do.
31:48I don't know what to do.
31:50I don't know what to do.
31:52I don't know what to do.
31:54I don't know what to do.
31:56I don't know what to do.
31:58I don't know what to do.
32:00I don't know what to do.
32:02I don't know what to do.
32:04I'm beginning to have second thoughts about this whole deal.
32:07Are you sure this really makes a case for us?
32:11With attempted murder added to what we've already got?
32:14Absolutely.
32:16I really don't like being bait.
32:19How do you think I felt since we started this thing?
32:25All right.
32:31I see him on one of the tanks.
32:34Let's go.
32:46Thank you for coming alone.
32:48You're welcome. Is that the money?
33:00A gun, Mr. Earhart?
33:02I've got a character for you.
33:04I said you might try this.
33:06Who's they?
33:08I didn't come alone.
33:10It's an old trick. A bad trick.
33:14No trick.
33:26Which one?
33:28I can't see.
33:30Okay.
34:00Hurry up!
34:02Hurry up!
34:04Hurry up!
34:26Apologies.
34:288-4.
34:303-2.
34:33He's unconscious, but the paramedics say he'll pull through.
34:36As usual, you did a great job, Angels.
34:39Take the next few days off.
34:41We've got a couple of days off. That's great, Charlie.
34:43Thanks, Charlie.
34:45Wait. Did he say paid days off or just days off?
34:47He wouldn't.
34:49Charlie? Charlie?
34:52Oh, yes, he would.
34:54Doesn't matter. I'm going to go back to the beach and sleep for a week.
35:02Good night, Charlie.
35:32Good night, Charlie.
36:02Good night, Charlie.
36:32Charlie?
37:02Charlie?
37:17You all right, Angela?
37:19Yeah, thank you, Boz. I'm okay.
37:24Anything?
37:26Clean as a whistle.
37:28He must have been wearing gloves.
37:30I saw him a few days ago. Find the killer.
37:32You sound awfully brave.
37:34Brave nothing. I just want him caught before he does a return engagement.
37:37You know, I thought for sure Earhardt was our man.
37:40Well, he may have been trying to put Tony out of business,
37:43but he sure wasn't killing centerfolds.
37:45Any ideas, Sabrina?
37:47Not just one. Jill, I don't think you're gonna like it.
37:50Like I said, I just want him caught.
37:52Now Victor's beginning to look like number one.
37:54I'll stick close to him.
37:56Does that mean we're throwing Tony out completely as a suspect?
37:59As far as I'm concerned.
38:01I saw his face when the bed exploded.
38:03Nobody's that good an actor.
38:05Well, I better be.
38:07When I tell him I'm gonna pose.
38:09Sure, I'm scared, but I'm also broke.
38:12So if you can protect me, I'd like to go ahead with it.
38:15Yeah, good girl.
38:17I'll get your bodyguard. 24 hours a day.
38:19He'll even have him sleep outside your house.
38:21Oh, he won't need to. I mean, that's one place I'm not moving back to.
38:24You know, maybe I can find a place in town
38:26where I can throw him in pinchers right at the door.
38:28Well, if you need a place to stay while you're looking,
38:30I have an extra bedroom.
38:32Oh, no, I...
38:34That's not a bad idea.
38:36I'd feel a lot better if you were staying with somebody like Paula.
38:39Well, if you're sure it's all right, I'd like that.
38:41Absolutely.
38:43I'll set up the shooting session as soon as possible.
38:45Good. I'd like to get it over with.
38:47Well, I'll pack up a few things. I'll see you at your place later.
38:50Okay, honey. Bye.
38:52Bye, doll.
38:57Tony, I wish you'd forget about the centerfold for a while.
39:01I can't, especially with closing down the clubs.
39:04What?
39:06So they can do an audit.
39:08I have to find out just how bad Dave ran me into the ground.
39:14I know how much you cared about him.
39:17Tony, if you need someone to talk to,
39:21the number's still the same.
39:24Thank you, pal.
39:26Well, I'll see you later, okay?
39:29Yeah.
39:40You really gonna close us down?
39:43Yeah, I've got to.
39:47Well, do I tell the staff or what?
39:49No, no, no, not yet.
39:52But don't you sweat it, Vic.
39:55I'll get you a job in a magazine.
39:57Doing what? I'm a club manager. I'm not a publisher.
40:00Find something, huh?
40:02Hey, listen, you've been carrying me for years.
40:05That's not true, friend, and you know it.
40:07Oh, yes, it is.
40:09Oh, yes.
40:12Well, take care of yourself, huh?
40:17Thanks for everything, boss.
40:22Take care.
40:34Lonely rests the head that wears the crown, huh?
40:37Yeah, something like that.
40:40You're gutsy ladies, you know that, all three of you.
40:43Well, on behalf of my co-workers,
40:46I thank you very much.
40:48Seriously, I wouldn't have blamed any of you if you bound out.
40:51Well, we did the one thing that Charlie advised us against.
40:55We got emotionally involved.
40:57We?
40:59Me.
41:01You mean I'm not the male chauvinist pig you thought I was?
41:05Oh, you are that.
41:07But you're also loyal, and you care about people.
41:11You mean that's all it takes to get to you?
41:16What can I tell you?
41:18I always was a soft sell.
41:21Well, it worked both ways.
41:23Yeah, I really think that I've been missing an awful lot
41:27by ignoring ladies over 20.
41:32Would you be willing to serve as an introduction?
41:35I would be delighted.
41:37As soon as this thing is over.
41:40Which means we're back to business.
41:43Yeah.
41:45We've narrowed it down to one suspect.
41:48Victor.
41:49Victor?
41:51You've got to be kidding.
41:53No. Bosley's tailing him now, and he'll stay with him until he tries to...
41:57There's just no way.
41:59Look, the man has had two heart attacks.
42:01He gets dizzy just walking up one flight of stairs.
42:04There's just no way that he could kill two healthy young ladies.
42:07No way.
42:10She's not back there.
42:12She must have left her polis.
42:14And Bosley's with Victor, right?
42:16Yeah, that's what the message said.
42:18But if it's not Victor, then there's nobody.
42:24It's so funny.
42:26You know, I just had this horrible image of Gloria Steinem
42:30drumming us out of the Corps for not solving this case.
42:33Oh, my God.
42:35What?
42:36Sometimes I think we're the biggest chauvinists of them all.
42:39Who says the murderer couldn't be a woman?
42:42One of the waitresses at the club?
42:44Nope. They don't know the layout of Jill's place.
42:46They've never been here.
42:48But Paula has.
42:50Paula? That's right.
42:52And Jill's with her.
42:54Got their number? Yeah.
42:56Right.
43:03Hello?
43:04Paula, Sabrina, could I speak to Jill, please?
43:07Oh, I'm sorry.
43:09She's not here yet.
43:11Is it important?
43:12Well, it could be.
43:14I tell you what, could you have her call me when she gets there?
43:17I sure will. Bye-bye.
43:19Bye.
43:21So she's not there yet.
43:23She must be on her way. Come on.
43:25Right behind you.
43:35It was marvelous being a centerfold.
43:39People recognized me, even with my clothes on.
43:47Would you like some more tea?
43:49Oh, no, thank you.
43:53You look awfully tired.
43:55Oh, I am. I'm sorry.
43:57It's okay. You mustn't have slept a wink last night.
44:00No, not much.
44:01Would you like to lie down for a little while?
44:03You know, if you wouldn't mind, I think I will.
44:06Not at all. Come on.
44:14Make yourself at home.
44:15Thank you.
44:33Thank you.
45:03Paula!
45:25Paula!
45:26Paula!
45:30Paula, open the door!
45:33Paula!
45:50Don't look at me!
45:52Don't look at me!
45:53Jill, get Jill!
45:55Paula! Paula!
46:00Why did you do that?
46:03Why, Paula?
46:11It was my car.
46:13It was an accident.
46:17My whole right side.
46:21And all my hair.
46:23Why did they pull me out?
46:28To leave me with this?
46:33Paula.
46:36There are doctors who can help you.
46:40I saw them all.
46:43Plastic surgeons.
46:46They said there was nothing they could do.
46:49Psychiatrists, Paula.
46:52I didn't want to hurt them, you know.
46:56But you see, they were all...
46:59They were all...
47:01They were all so beautiful.
47:04And they had it all ahead of them.
47:07And after the accident...
47:10Oh, my God.
47:12Paula, the doctors will understand that.
47:16But Tony won't.
47:18Yes, he will.
47:20Oh, you know how much he cares about you.
47:24Not anymore.
47:25Once.
47:26Once.
47:28Before I was older.
47:32Before the accident.
47:33No, now.
47:36He told me so today, Paula.
47:41Paula, he cares about you.
47:43He'll want to take care of you.
47:45No.
47:47Tony won't understand.
47:50Tony won't understand!
47:52Paula!
47:53Kevin, hang on!
47:55Okay, okay.
48:01Okay, okay.
48:03It's okay, Paula.
48:05It's okay.
48:06It's okay, Paula.
48:08It's okay.
48:18Charlie, they're every bit as good as you said they were.
48:21Even better.
48:22You should be delighted to know, angels,
48:24that Tony's included a most generous bonus for each of you.
48:27Aha!
48:29And I would like all of you to be my guest for dinner tonight.
48:32I thought you and Sabrina...
48:34That's tomorrow night.
48:35She gets two free meals.
48:37No, she had to put up with me more.
48:39Well, I enjoyed every minute of it.
48:41Almost every minute of it.
48:43Any news from the hospital?
48:45The doctor that examined Paula wasn't sure, but he was hopeful.
48:49We'll keep the good thought.
48:51Again, angels, congratulations on two jobs well done.
48:54And Tony, I'll see you next weekend.
48:56Bye, angels.
48:58You're going to see him?
48:59Now, wait just a minute.
49:00You know what he looks like?
49:02Bosley?
49:03What kind of music does he like?
49:04What kind of women does he like?
49:05Bosley!
49:21Bosley!
