00:00Once upon a time, there were three little girls who went to the police academy.
00:06Two in Los Angeles.
00:13The other in San Francisco.
00:16And they were each assigned very hazardous duties.
00:22But I took them away from all that.
00:25And now they work for me.
00:27My name is Charlie.
00:57And I'm going to do it again.
01:15Bulldogs finish a successful scoring drive and kick off with only six minutes left to play.
01:20The club from behind team is moving again.
01:57Sweet is on the strong side for a gain of five.
02:06Hayden stares to pass, breaks the tackle, touchdown.
02:10Three seconds left.
02:12Two.
02:13One.
02:14The Bulldogs come from behind to win.
02:28Um...
02:34Hi, sweetheart.
02:35Eddie, the sign on the door said to please knock.
02:39Oh, well, if I'm too old to read that, why worry about me?
02:43I just came by to tell the mother hen to have her chicks come down to room four as soon as they put their feathers on.
02:48Eddie, they are all very tired.
02:50I need to build these girls up from scratch, okay?
02:53I'll tell them.
02:58How the hell? How do you like the game?
03:00I don't watch games. I watch newspapers.
03:02You haven't been giving these girls enough publicity.
03:04I'm trying. I'm trying.
03:06The whole routines are sloppy.
03:08It's not the same with only six girls.
03:10I'm screening applicants.
03:12I said you two. Both of them should have been fine.
03:14Well, you're not the sole judge, Mrs. Asher.
03:21Although your son obviously has a great eye for beauty.
03:26Oh, Timothy, I'll talk to you later.
03:41Oh, my God!
03:43Really?
03:55What are you doing here, Tasker?
03:57I want to see Mary Ann.
04:00Well, she's not here. She hasn't been here all week.
04:03Now, she must have quit.
04:05You're just saying that to keep me away from her.
04:08I'm not lying. She's gone.
04:10Nobody knows where.
04:12Now, don't hang around this room, or I'll have to call security.
04:25Bad news, lady.
04:27Eddie Cobb needs publicity pictures, room 4,
04:29as soon as you can dress and dry your hair.
04:31I'm sorry, but that's it.
04:33I'll see you all at practice on Tuesday.
04:55Hmm.
05:26What are you doing in here?
05:29Help!
05:39Woe to ye purveyors of sin!
05:42Take your dancing girls and be gone,
05:44or they shall be destroyed one by one.
05:47I'm sorry, sir.
05:49I'm sorry, sir.
05:51I'm sorry, sir.
05:53Or they shall be destroyed one by one.
05:55Charlie, what is all this stuff?
05:57It all has to do with our case, angels.
05:59Our client is Dan Abner, owner of the Bulldogs football team.
06:03Now, he received that first note a week after he introduced
06:06eight cheerleaders to entertain the fans.
06:09He can't please everyone.
06:10Abner didn't expect to.
06:12That's why he ignored those notes
06:14until he got a third one just before the game.
06:16Bosley?
06:18To ignore the warnings of the Lord is foolhardy.
06:21The wanton lady who assists you in your wickedness shall also perish.
06:26Well, that doesn't sound any worse than the other ones.
06:28Well, the third note makes reference to a specific person.
06:32The young lady in charge of these cheerleaders, Beverly Casey, a former beauty queen.
06:37Now, she was supposed to meet Abner and some friends after the game for a drink, and she never showed.
06:42The wanton lady who assists you.
06:45Exactly. Three notes, three girls disappear.
06:50Your job is to find out what happened to them.
06:53Sabrina, weren't you a former cheerleader?
06:56Oh, well, I mean, I was a high school cheerleader.
06:59It doesn't matter. You only have to act like you know what you're talking about.
07:02I've arranged with Abner for you to take over Beverly Casey's job.
07:07Charlie, what about us? You don't... We're not going to be cheerleaders.
07:12I certainly hope so, but you'll have to get those jobs without any help from me.
07:17Charlie, you don't mean we have to try out?
07:20Afraid so, angels. Dan Abner drinks a lot, and he talks a lot.
07:24And if he should accidentally blow Sabrina's cover, I want two of you on the scene that even he doesn't know about.
07:30Well, I mean, we don't even know the routines.
07:34Of course not. But with Sabrina in charge, I have no doubt you'll be steamed up in no time.
07:40Uh-oh. I think we're in trouble. I think so, too.
07:44Five, six, seven, eight.
07:46Turn, two, three.
07:48Turn, two, three.
07:50Knee. Kick. Higher.
07:52Kick. Knee. Knee.
07:55Higher. Knee.
07:57Higher. Knee.
07:59Kick. Oh, come on.
08:01I quit. I quit.
08:03Are you going to quit in the middle of your audition tomorrow?
08:06No audition can be this tough.
08:09Let me ask you a question.
08:11Let me ask you a question. How do you know all these routines?
08:14I have been watching films of the Bow Wow's routines all morning.
08:19The Bow Wow's?
08:21The Bow Wow's. The team is the Bulldogs.
08:24The cheerleaders are the Bow Wow's.
08:27How adorable.
08:32I built this stadium ten years ago.
08:34That's very impressive, Mr. Abner.
08:36That seat's 100,000.
08:38And to think, one of them could be a crackpot that might scare away half our crowd.
08:43If word got out that someone was grabbing our girls...
08:46I understand, sir.
08:48Well, the public might think he'll plant a bomb next.
08:51And who knows? He just might.
08:53Well, he might, but I don't think he will.
08:55He seems to be concentrating strictly on your cheerleaders.
08:58Yeah. Don't think I don't feel guilty picking these new kids today...
09:02without telling them what's been going on.
09:04Well, try not to worry about it too much, Mr. Abner.
09:06I will keep a very close eye on them.
09:09Now, tell me, do I get a vote in the decision today?
09:12No, just Bell Asher helps me decide.
09:14Ah.
09:15Bell's an agent. Oh.
09:16She brought me the idea of starting this group last month.
09:19So I signed her on as an advisor.
09:21Well, does she know what's been happening lately?
09:24No, Bell just pays attention to getting her 10 percent...
09:27and keeping her wimpy son away from the girls.
09:30I see.
09:32Tell me, Mr. Abner, how do you choose the right girls?
09:36Oh, I have no particular yardstick.
09:39I like all different types...
09:41long as they don't fuss with their hair.
09:43Uh-huh.
09:44That's a sure sign they're not paying attention to their dancing.
09:46That's a very good point.
09:48Excuse me.
09:52Who are you?
09:53Oh, uh, Larry.
09:55Fred has the flu.
09:57The flu.
09:59Well, Fred knows I like that music loud.
10:02Oh, yeah.
10:04You experienced this?
10:05Oh, yes, sir.
10:07I studied at a Juilliard.
10:09Uh, that's, uh, before I studied electronics.
10:18Let's go.
10:19Uh-huh.
10:30Afternoon, Bell.
10:31Abner.
10:32Uh, this is Mrs. Duncan. She's taking Beverly's place.
10:34How do you do?
10:35All right.
10:36Heard Beverly went to Hollywood for a job.
10:39Who told you that?
10:41Oh, casting agents hear everything, Abner.
10:44Who are those two girls in the end?
10:47Well, they applied this morning.
10:49They say they know all the routines.
10:51My clients are at the other end.
10:53I don't see how we'd do any better.
10:56Well, let's get on with it.
10:58Sure. If you'll excuse me, I'll get the girls going.
11:00Ladies, if you would, would you form your lines, please?
11:03You two just fall right in.
11:04Could I have a word with you two?
11:06Uh, listen, the big boss has a thing about hair.
11:08Just, uh, flip your hair around and he'll love you.
11:10You think so?
11:11Oh, yeah.
11:12Hey, thanks.
11:13Oh, you're welcome.
11:14It's nothing, really.
11:25Ah!
11:36Ah!
11:55Ah!
12:26We've decided on the two girls on the end.
12:32Now, may I talk to you two, please?
12:34Over here.
12:41Uh, girls, girls, girls, girls.
12:43Listen, um, oh, come on, don't be sad.
12:46I think maybe I could have given you a little more time.
12:48Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
12:52Oh, come on, don't be sad.
12:53I think maybe I could have given you a little wrong advice.
12:56I'm sorry, but I know there'll be a couple of places open
12:58probably within the week, really, really soon,
13:00and they're yours.
13:01Really?
13:02Yes, they are.
13:03Oh, gosh, that's a lot.
13:04Thank you.
13:05All right.
13:06So long.
13:07Bye-bye.
13:10Ah, I can't breathe.
13:12Who's gonna buy a ticket?
13:14Watch us breathe.
13:15Okay, everybody, let's just get up on the field,
13:17let the photographers get a couple of quick shots
13:19of everybody with the two new girls,
13:21and the quicker we get up there,
13:22the quicker we'll get back down here.
13:24So everybody up, let's go.
13:26I don't think I'm all in this.
13:27I don't think you're supposed to be.
13:47I knew you wouldn't let me down, Sam.
13:49Only for you, Eddie, only for you.
13:51I mean, I've been to the stadium a thousand times,
13:53but never to interview pussycats.
13:55Bow-wows.
13:56Try to remember that, Sam.
13:59Bow-wows.
14:00Come on.
14:01Your readers are gonna love it.
14:04All right, ladies, number one, please, for the man.
14:07There you are.
14:08Everybody smile.
14:11Okay, go to number two now.
14:14There you are.
14:15Very nice.
14:17Okay, change.
14:25Number four, number four, number four.
14:31Marianne.
14:37Marianne.
14:47Keep going.
14:48That's it, that's it.
14:50Okay, all right, all right.
14:52Have you gotten everything you need?
14:53You got it all?
14:54Okay, all right, everybody stop.
14:56Gunga din!
14:57No.
14:58Good deal.
14:59Here we go.
15:00Yay!
15:02Give me a drink.
15:03Be careful.
15:04Don't spill it.
15:09Well, Eddie, it's about time.
15:11Miss Duncan, I want you to meet my son.
15:13Well, Eddie, it's about time.
15:15Miss Duncan, I want you to meet my oldest and dearest friend, Sam Brayen.
15:18How do you do? I've always enjoyed your column.
15:20Thank you.
15:21Sam promised to mention the new girls in his column.
15:23Wonderful.
15:24Can I meet them?
15:25Sure, I'll be right back.
15:29Lovely girl, isn't she?
15:31Yeah, they're all lovely.
15:33Everybody got one?
15:37Thank you, thank you.
15:38Thank you.
15:39Got a couple back there.
15:40All right, wonderful.
15:41Okay, all right, all right.
15:42All right, all right.
15:43No, no charges.
15:44I'll check out.
15:45I'll pick up the change.
15:46Girls?
15:47Miss Garrett, Miss Monroe, this is Mr. Bram.
15:49He's going to write a story about you.
15:51No kidding?
15:52Oh, that's terrific.
15:53Well, see, I was hoping that I could clip something out
15:55and send it on down home to my folks.
15:57Well, I've been telling them that I've been doing real good here,
16:00but, well, I think if they saw my name in print,
16:02they'd believe it a whole lot more.
16:04Uh, where is down home?
16:06Atlanta.
16:08Oh, home of old 44.
16:1144?
16:13Hank Aaron.
16:15He was 44.
16:16Oh, well, see, I mostly just hung out with the younger crowd.
16:21Uh, I suppose you're from New York,
16:24and you never heard of Joe Namath.
16:26Well, actually, I almost went out with Mr. Namath once,
16:29but I canceled the day.
16:31I went to a horse show instead.
16:33Well, then you really are from New York.
16:35Uh, Philadelphia, but I hated to shop there.
16:38However, my family was terribly sports-minded.
16:41Are you into skeet?
16:42Skeet?
16:43No, no, I never, uh, write about sports
16:46where they can shoot back at me.
16:48Uh...
16:50Uh, tell me, uh, Miss Garrett,
16:52uh, why'd you take a job like this?
16:55Oh, to change my image.
16:57You see, I lost out on a few wonderful picture parts.
17:01The producers thought I was too aloof.
17:04Well, they can hardly say that now, can they?
17:07Hardly.
17:08Well, thank you very much, ladies.
17:11Uh, I think I have enough for that mention that I promised Eddie.
17:14Well, Mr. Bram, you sound like you'd rather have your two front teeth pulled.
17:19Nothing against you girls personally, believe me,
17:22but I've spent my whole life covering sports,
17:24and I like it hard and simple, no frills.
17:27This is a chorus line, you know.
17:29But, uh, not that you're not absolutely all adorable,
17:32but I'd much rather meet you at a church social.
17:35Uh, at a church social?
17:39Are you a religious man, Mr. Bram?
17:42Well, I've been known to pray at a crucial extra point.
17:46Thanks, girls.
17:47Goodbye.
17:48Yes, bye-bye.
17:54Well, it doesn't look like Mr. Bram's one of our bigger boosters.
17:57No, but at least he didn't hide his feelings.
18:00Mm-mm.
18:01Neither does that nut who's been writing those religious notes.
18:16You're the reason Marianne ain't here.
18:19What?
18:21You took her place.
18:23They got rid of Marianne, and you took her place.
18:26Now, listen, mister, I don't know you,
18:29and I don't have any idea what you're talking about.
18:32Dan Abner did this to torment me.
18:35He got rid of Marianne and hired you.
18:38Why would Dan Abner want to torment you?
18:43He's still sore about that Cleveland game.
18:46Everybody's sore, because I missed that tackle.
18:50Everybody except Marianne.
18:53She said we all make mistakes.
18:55And she's right.
18:57We all do.
18:59But you're making a mistake right now
19:01if you think I had anything to do with her leaving.
19:04Dan Abner.
19:06He cut me, and then he cut Marianne.
19:09Don't dwell on that.
19:11Or on the fact that Marianne isn't here anymore.
19:15You look like you haven't slept in days.
19:18You go home now and get some rest.
19:21Miss Allison, Sergeant Webb, homicide.
19:24Homicide?
19:26I want to ask you a few questions
19:28about your ex-boyfriend we found
19:30stuffed under your sink.
19:33Do you mind?
19:40Thanks, Sarge.
19:42I only wish you'd come a few minutes earlier
19:44when I was really scared.
19:46Who's the skyscraper?
19:48Who's the skyscraper?
19:50An ex-bulldog ready for the pound.
19:52Not our man, though.
19:53He's trying to find one of the missing girls, too.
19:55I'll tell you about it on the way home.
19:57Why should I ride home with you?
19:59I want you to help me get that ex-boyfriend
20:01out from under my sink.
20:03Ah, that's right.
20:06I didn't know a little jumping around
20:08could mess up a person's hair so much.
20:10Huh? That's what used to bother Marianne.
20:13She's the girl who quit last week.
20:15Only it's just as well the big bell
20:17was out to have her fired anyway.
20:19What's the big bell?
20:21Not what. Who.
20:23She's that lady agent you auditioned for.
20:26She handles most of the money,
20:28but she's the one who's been
20:30making the most of it.
20:32That's the lady agent you auditioned for.
20:34She handles most of us
20:36and gets us these jobs for exposure.
20:38Hm. Mighty exposing, too.
20:40Why'd she want to get rid of Marianne?
20:43Marianne double-crossed her.
20:45She told Bell she wanted her to handle her,
20:48but she didn't sign a contract.
20:50Then when Bell got her the job here,
20:52she told Bell to get lost.
20:54Bell didn't like that one little bit.
20:58Well, where's this Marianne now?
21:00I don't know. Nobody seems to know.
21:03Even that big boyfriend of hers
21:05keeps coming around here looking for her.
21:10Need a ride downtown?
21:12No, thanks.
21:14I think it's nigh on time I got myself an agent.
21:18See you, Chris.
21:20Bye.
21:31Bye.
21:39No calls, Mother.
21:41Excuse me.
21:43Is Mrs. Asher hereabouts?
21:45Thank the good Lord, no.
21:49I mean, she just stepped out.
21:52Oh.
21:54Would it be all right if I just waited for a few minutes?
21:57Oh, sure, sure.
21:59You sit right down and be comfortable.
22:01Thank you.
22:03I'm Timothy. I'm Mrs. Asher's son.
22:06Oh, I know. I saw you at the audition.
22:09And you still remember me?
22:11Well, it was just a couple of days ago.
22:13I know, but a girl like you must see a lot of guys every day.
22:17I mean, you know a lot of guys, huh?
22:19Well, not a lot. Some.
22:22You like to go out?
22:24Well, sure. Don't you?
22:29I don't have time.
22:32I have to study a lot.
22:34Oh, what are you studying?
22:36Theology.
22:40Oh, that's nice.
22:42Uh-uh. Been kicked out of three seminaries.
22:46Uh, bad grades?
22:49Bad behavior.
22:52You know what I mean?
22:55Oh, well, it's real nice that you have a calling.
22:59It's not what's calling me.
23:01It's my mother pushing me.
23:03She figures I should do all the praying while she does all the sinning.
23:07You know what I mean?
23:09Oh, well, I can certainly understand why you wouldn't like that arrangement.
23:13You bet I don't.
23:15Um, listen, how do you feel about your mother handling all them cheerleaders?
23:20I could handle them.
23:24A lot better.
23:27Oh, and have you?
23:29I mean, have you gone out with any of them or picked them up, so to speak?
23:35Timothy!
23:42You'd better have come to see me, young lady.
23:45Oh, I did, I did.
23:47See, I've been looking for an agent, and the girls told me that you were very good.
23:52I can be.
23:54For a girl who's willing to work very hard and take my advice straight down the line.
24:00Well, that's just what I need, too.
24:02Some good advice.
24:04Well, let me think it over.
24:06I've been burned recently by a girl I thought I could trust.
24:09From now on, I'm going to be very careful that the people I select aren't phony.
24:15Well, ma'am, I can certainly understand that.
24:18But I'd just be much obliged if you'd even consider it.
24:23Well, let me think it over.
24:27Oh.
24:32Thank you.
24:48Thank you.
25:19Down.
25:28Tonight's ceremony is to mark the beginning of your redemption.
25:40As I have told you, the good one found me.
25:46And delivered me out of a life of prostitution.
25:50I, too, only lived on bread.
25:53And wore sackcloth for days on end.
25:58But it was only when my ego-bleached hair was shorn...
26:05that I began to accept the good one as my guide to salvation.
26:16The Lady Cutting Away Your Earthly Bonds
26:37The Lady Cutting Away Your Earthly Bonds has learned well.
26:42As you will learn.
26:47And you will teach the others.
26:50Already two more have taken your sinful places.
26:55But they will be with us soon.
27:01Very soon.
27:10The starting back deal tonight.
27:12The starting back deal tonight.
27:14And quarterback Rick McCullough.
27:16And right-hand Jeff Hader.
27:18And fullback Cy Hertz.
27:20Chop-chop. Let's go. Time to go. Who lost a sandal?
27:23There you go. Don't forget your pom-pom.
27:26You two stay here a minute. I want to check your new outfits.
27:29What's wrong? Something not showing?
27:31Listen, Dan Abner got another one of those notes this afternoon.
27:34Oh, great. So far, every note means another girl disappears.
27:37I still think it's Bell Asher's creepy son.
27:40I told Charlie that you wanted to talk to him alone.
27:42He said all right, but he didn't like it.
27:44That's just it, Bree. He's never alone.
27:47He's always parked next to that mountain of a mother.
27:50Well, Charlie's found a mountain mover.
27:52Who?
27:54Bosley. He's on the job. Get your pom-poms.
27:56Poor thing.
27:57Let's go. Let's go. Catch.
28:02Costello looks downfield. It's complete behavior.
28:07Costello charges off backwards for a gain of three.
28:10Second down and seven.
28:14These seats are reserved.
28:16Of course. I wouldn't sit anywhere else.
28:22No.
28:37No.
28:51Looking good. Nice job.
28:53Thank you, Eddie.
28:54You see Sam Bram's column today?
28:56No, I haven't had a chance.
28:57Oh, well, he mentioned the two newcomers.
28:59And in a very nice way.
29:01That's wonderful.
29:07How did you get him to do that, Eddie?
29:09Well, Sam and I go back a long ways.
29:11He got me a job in the paper when I first came here.
29:13Uh-huh. Well, it always helps to have friends, huh?
29:16Yes, we all need help.
29:30Peter Bulldogs to the line for the TD.
29:33And that's what this team is all about.
29:35It's the Bulldogs, 20, and the Cougars, seven.
29:46Hi.
29:47Oh, hi.
29:48Say, I need to get a biography on you,
29:50and I should get it written as soon as possible.
29:52What say we have some dinner after the game
29:54and you can give me some background?
29:56Oh, shoot. Listen, I might have a date.
29:59Might?
30:00Uh...
30:05As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have a date.
30:08Oh.
30:10Listen, why don't we do it first thing in the morning?
30:12Would that be all right?
30:14Sure, I'll call you.
30:15Okay, fine.
30:17I like a career woman
30:19who puts that career first and foremost.
30:25Well, I, uh...
30:27certainly put my career first and foremost,
30:31but tell me, how is it that I never heard of your agency?
30:34Oh, I never opened offices.
30:37No, no, I very quietly handle one, two stars,
30:43and try to keep a low profile.
30:46No, I find that I operate much better this way.
30:51Mm-mm-mm-mm.
31:00What's that new girl's name, the brunette?
31:03I want to talk to her.
31:04Kelly Garrett. Why do you need to talk to her, Eddie?
31:07I want to get a bio and all that after the game.
31:09Uh-huh. You know, you got a smudge on your jacket there.
31:12Oh, that's printer's ink. I'll take care of it.
31:15Okay.
31:16Kelly Garrett, you say?
31:17Right.
31:19The final score is 21-7.
31:22Tonight's victory moves the Bulldogs
31:24into a tie for first place in the Western Division.
31:27Good night, ladies and gentlemen.
31:29Drive safely, and have a pleasant evening.
31:34Well, that was exciting.
31:42We're going out to talk business,
31:44so you take a cab straight home.
31:46And I mean straight home.
31:59And I would think that, uh...
32:02Well, I would think that you would do, uh,
32:07just about anything to be with her,
32:09no matter what your mama says.
32:12Well, here we are.
32:17Oh, well, uh, that's not exactly what I mean.
32:21I would like to hear about the other times.
32:27Never been any other time.
32:31It's true.
32:33Oh, I think a lot.
32:36And I stare a lot.
32:38But Mother just never let me out of her sight.
32:43Until tonight.
32:46Oh, well.
32:48Say, I think I'm just gonna go freshen up just a little bit,
32:51if you'll excuse me.
32:53I'll be right back.
33:13Eddie.
33:15What are you doing here?
33:17Your mother saw you leave with this girl.
33:20She asked me to follow you.
33:25Townsend Associates.
33:27Yeah, hi, Bree.
33:29Well, it looks like I got heartburn for nothing.
33:31If this creep knows anything about those two girls disappearing,
33:34I think he'd be bragging about it by now.
33:36Well, if that's what you think, you might as well dump him.
33:39That might be a little difficult. He's awful fast on his feet.
33:42You want us to come down with our look-who's-here routine?
33:46Thought you'd never offer.
33:48We're on the way.
34:10Eddie?
34:12Hiya, sweetheart. The Marines have landed.
34:15Where's Timothy?
34:17Mama sent me to save the innocent lad.
34:19Oh, you're kidding.
34:21Not always. Part of my job is hushing up this kind of sordid mess.
34:24Well, why don't you finish your coffee, and I'll give you a ride home.
34:27Oh, well, actually, I'm waiting for some friends.
34:29Oh, well, then I'll wait with you, okay?
34:31I'll see you later.
34:33Bye-bye.
34:35Oh, well, actually, I'm waiting for some friends.
34:37Oh, well, then I'll wait with you, okay?
34:39All right.
34:44You're sort of a jack-of-all-trades, aren't you, Eddie?
34:47Have been, have been.
34:52You always been in publicity?
34:54No, this is my first job away from the city room.
34:57I even had my own column once.
34:59Really?
35:02Yeah, I love newspapers.
35:06The feel of them.
35:09The smell of them.
35:13And the power.
35:19You can influence so many people.
35:24Get you outside, get some air.
35:28What's wrong?
35:30Oh, she has fainting spells. She'll be all right outside.
35:32Well, you sure you can handle it by yourself?
35:34Very sure.
35:57So that's it, Charlie.
35:59The waitress said Chris seemed sick and then a man helped her out of the restaurant.
36:02Bell Asher's son?
36:04No, no, the waitress said that he left and another man came in.
36:07It sounds like Eddie Cobb.
36:09Cobb, huh?
36:11I'm afraid this fits with a background check I just received on him.
36:14He did work on newspapers with Sam Bram.
36:17But he wasn't a sports writer. He wrote a religious column.
36:20Until he had a very severe crack-up.
36:23He could be having another one.
36:25Well, we got his address out of the phone book. We're on our way to his apartment now.
36:28Good. But if he's not there, go see Sam Bram at the Times.
36:31He's Eddie's best friend. He might know where else to look.
36:34We're on the way.
36:41Don't die.
36:43Please don't die. Please.
36:50Are you all right?
36:52Who?
36:54Who are you?
36:56Oh, you're all right. Thank God.
36:59Who are you?
37:01Beverly.
37:03Oh.
37:05Beverly.
37:09Beverly Casey? From the Bauhaus?
37:15Did Eddie bring me here?
37:18And you?
37:20The other girls?
37:22We're all here to serve the good one.
37:25The what?
37:28Put this on. The good one will be back shortly.
37:35Who's that?
37:37Margo.
37:39Beverly, what kind of place is this?
37:41I don't know. He keeps us here.
37:45And when he's gone, is she the only one here?
37:51I think we could take care of one wicked witch.
37:53But that witch is tough.
37:55And she's been eating regularly, and we haven't.
37:58I don't even know what's been in the food.
38:00Don't worry. I've been fed.
38:03Pretty fed up with this, too.
38:05Please, just don't try anything.
38:07If they get angry, they might kill us.
38:09All of us.
38:11Please, just wear this and do whatever they say until help comes.
38:15It's okay. It's okay.
38:17Besides, I don't look too good in brown.
38:22Come on. It's all right.
38:26Come on.
38:31Nothing but shoes and socks. Anything there?
38:33No, nothing. He could have taken Chris anywhere.
38:37Maybe we ought to go over to the Times and see that sports writer.
38:40What's his name? Sam Bram?
38:42Yeah. Did you check this, Brie?
38:45What? Oh, yeah. I looked through the pockets.
38:47There's nothing in...
38:49Hey, wait a minute.
38:51That's the same stuff that Eddie had on his jacket sleeve.
38:53Printer's ink.
38:55Come on. Let's go. Yeah.
39:08This way.
39:24Down.
39:36You will find the path much smoother without resistance.
39:39But the only path I want is a path out of here.
39:42That is not to be at this time.
39:44But if you should try and succeed in getting away,
39:48the good one would take such an act
39:50as a sign that the Lord did not approve of his leniency.
39:54We would promptly kill the others.
39:59Down!
40:01Down!
40:19Printer's ink? No.
40:22No. No reporter nowadays goes anywhere near a printing press.
40:25Look, we really need some help here, Mr. Bram.
40:28I know. Gee, I'm sure sorry about Eddie.
40:31I thought he was finally over it.
40:33Over what?
40:35He had this kid sister he was crazy about.
40:37He raised her himself, gave her everything.
40:39Then one day she ran away,
40:41and Eddie nearly went wild trying to find her.
40:44He spent a whole year trying to find her.
40:46He spent a whole year
40:48searching for her in the drug scene
40:50and the call girl joints.
40:52He finally found her,
40:54Jane Doe and the Moor of O.D.
40:57Wow.
40:59Yeah, Eddie really went off the deep end.
41:01I mean, he started breaking into drug parties,
41:03spouting scripture.
41:05He dragged prostitutes away from their tricks
41:07to make them kneel on the pavement.
41:09I was lucky to get him into a hospital
41:11before somebody knifed him.
41:13How long ago was that?
41:15Four years. I was working at the Chronicle then,
41:17and when he was released, I got him a job on the paper.
41:20He still wrote the religious column, but nothing wild.
41:23I mean, I was sure he was well.
41:25Do you have any idea where he might have taken these girls?
41:29I wish I could think of someplace.
41:32But to tell you the truth,
41:34Eddie and I haven't seen that much of each other
41:36since the Chronicle folded.
41:38Even then, all we did mostly was play cards down at the plant.
41:41What's the plant?
41:43The Chronicle got out of the hospital,
41:45so they let him use an empty office at the printing plant
41:47the Chronicle had down in Maine.
41:49Wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait. Printing plant?
41:51There's your printers, eh?
42:13Come on.
42:32You may raise your eyes.
42:37Tonight we are here to accept another fallen sparrow
42:40into the comfort of our nest,
42:42but there will be another and more to follow.
42:45Don't be too sure, Eddie.
42:47Silence!
42:49She may speak.
42:51On this first night, she may voice her fears
42:53and then be rid of them.
42:55You're the one that should be afraid.
42:57Timothy saw you with me,
42:59and certainly people saw you take me out of the restaurant.
43:01That doesn't matter now.
43:03There's no longer a need to hide my mission here.
43:07The Lord will protect me from those who would hinder my work,
43:11and I shall send forth you and the others
43:14as examples of my accomplishments.
43:16And now you must prepare yourself.
43:18Her hair offends me.
43:28Okay, now, wait a minute.
43:30Silence!
43:34You will bow your head.
43:36I'm not gonna bow my head to you
43:38or anybody else in this grease pit.
43:42Move!
43:44Move!
43:46Come on, let's get out of here.
43:55Come on, now, we gotta move!
44:07Let's go.
44:11Let's go.
44:31Be careful now.
44:33Watch your step.
44:41Come on.
44:51Be careful.
44:57Eddie's still inside.
44:59Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh.
45:01Kelly, watch her. Show me. Come on.
45:07Eddie! Eddie, we want you to come with us.
45:10Come on, let's get out of here.
45:13Please, good one,
45:15lead us out of the flames of purgatory.
45:40We'll take him down with the lady,
45:42but we'll need statements from all of you.
45:44Okay.
45:46I saved you?
45:50You saved us, Eddie.
45:52You saved all of us.
46:11You sure Charlie said he'd call at 5?
46:16Well, that was a message.
46:19Maybe Charlie's getting thrifty all of a sudden.
46:21The rates go down after 5.
46:23Good afternoon, ladies.
46:25You'll please pardon the intrusion,
46:27but I have an important business call to make.
46:30Not on line one, Bosley.
46:32We expect a call from Charlie.
46:34Oh, don't worry. Charlie's intelligent enough
46:36to call back later if the line is busy.
46:38Bosley.
46:40Hello, hello. This is Mr. John Bosley.
46:42I am the new consultant
46:44with the Bell Asher Talent Agency.
46:46Bell asked me to call you
46:48and close the deal on the Tahitian cruise.
46:50As I understand it,
46:52you wanted three beautiful girls
46:54for one week at $1,000 each.
46:58Oh, no, no.
47:00No, of course not. No trouble at all.
47:02As a matter of fact, I do have the three girls,
47:04and as a matter of fact,
47:06they've all signed their own contracts
47:08and they're on their way back to you.
47:10Oh, no, I didn't realize that.
47:12You really wanted six girls.
47:14Uh, well, no,
47:16I don't know about that.
47:18I mean to find three more girls
47:20who could be ready to sail
47:22on such short notice.
47:24Uh, look, uh,
47:26I do happen to have
47:28three ladies in the office
47:30just at this very moment.
47:32Look, why don't I put them on
47:34and let them talk to you themselves?
47:36Hello.
47:38My name is Sabrina,
47:40and, uh, my two friends
47:42and I just happened to drop by
47:44our agent, Mr. Bosley's office,
47:46and it's just
47:48a wonderful coincidence
47:50because we certainly do love
47:52to travel.
47:54Well, my friend is absolutely right.
47:56Uh, my name is Kelly,
47:58and I especially love
48:00that, uh, warm tropical climate.
48:02Oh, oh, I'm Chris,
48:04and I love all kinds of climates,
48:06so I'll go anywhere.
48:08I'm Charlie,
48:10and I love all three of you.
48:12Relax, angels, you've earned
48:14this vacation trip as a bonus.
48:16So pack your sarongs
48:18and bon voyage.
48:20Aah!
48:32?
48:42?
48:52?
