00:10:50Did you ever get your clock fixed or should I have someone call me?
00:10:53What time do you have to get up?
00:10:565.30.
00:11:01You going to London?
00:11:03And Paris?
00:11:07Bob, I'll be back first tonight.
00:11:10Early.
00:11:12I'll bring you a present.
00:11:17Are you okay?
00:11:21Yeah, I'm fine.
00:11:23I heard about a lady on the beach this morning.
00:11:27You knew her, didn't you?
00:11:30Wanton.
00:11:37She'll probably turn up.
00:11:39Probably turn out to be some kind of mix-up, that's all.
00:11:46Now, what was it you were saying?
00:11:49What was it you were saying?
00:11:52Did I get what fixed?
00:11:54Your clock.
00:11:59Clock.
00:12:03Yeah.
00:12:05That's working too.
00:12:19♪

00:14:28Cypher?
00:14:30♪
00:14:40♪
00:14:50♪
00:14:57Ah!
00:15:01Harry Calder, Miss Catherine Cleper.
00:15:03This is Dr. Demetrius.
00:15:05How do you do?
00:15:06Pleasure.
00:15:07How do you do?
00:15:08Well, Doc, what's the verdict?
00:15:11Ah, the verdict, I'm afraid, is that I have no verdict.
00:15:16You want to run that bias once more, Doc?
00:15:19Ah.
00:15:20The dog was killed.
00:15:22Brutally, savagely killed.
00:15:25If I were to make an educated guess,
00:15:29I would say that the killer was a large man,
00:15:35or an average-sized man with unusually large hands,
00:15:39but very strong, very long, very sharp fingernails.
00:15:45Well, you're telling us that somebody
00:15:47just took the little doggie and, uh, what,
00:15:49uh, ripped his head off?
00:15:51Plainly speaking, yes.
00:15:53But, uh, it's only a guess, mind you.
00:15:57No hard evidence.
00:16:00Uh, no human skin caught in the wound.
00:16:04No hair.
00:16:05Not even a hangnail?
00:16:07For God's sakes, Roy, don't...
00:16:09Oh, come on, we're not talking about somebody's skin.
00:16:11We're talking about a dead dog.
00:16:13They're gonna dance it around on tippy-toes
00:16:15to keep from offending anybody around here?
00:16:17Excuse me, Mr. Calder.
00:16:18You know, you're an ass, Roy Calder.
00:16:20What?
00:16:21You heard me.
00:16:22Now, you go outside and wait in the car.
00:16:25Now, go on, Sergeant.
00:16:26You go out and wait in the car.
00:16:28No sense of humor around here.
00:16:32That's what's the matter with this world.
00:16:37Excuse me, Ms. Hutton.
00:16:38Listen, do you have anything else to tell us about him?
00:16:41Oh, no, it's all guesswork, Lieutenant.
00:16:44Oh, no, it's all guesswork, Lieutenant.
00:16:47I've told you just about everything I know.
00:16:49Do you want to ask him anything else?
00:16:51Yes.
00:16:52What are you gonna do next?
00:16:54I really don't know.
00:16:55But we'll keep in touch, okay?
00:16:57Come on, Doc.
00:16:58I'll walk you back up to your office.
00:17:00This is a peculiar case.
00:17:02I don't know, Doc.
00:17:03Dogs usually aren't my business, you know what I mean?
00:17:06Want to go for a ride?
00:17:10Remember the last time we were on this boat together?
00:17:13No.
00:17:15Do you?
00:17:16We were just getting out of the Navy.
00:17:181973.
00:17:21Don't remember the month, but it was the day before you left.
00:17:25September, Doc?
00:17:27Uh-huh.
00:17:29September.
00:17:33Right, September.
00:17:36It was my last-ditch effort to get you to change your mind.
00:17:39I kept threatening to sail us straight out to nowhere.
00:17:42Just as far as we could go until we ran out of gas.
00:17:46Why do you suppose you didn't?
00:17:49You didn't want me to.
00:17:51Probably not.
00:17:53Not then.
00:17:55Maybe before.
00:17:57Or after.
00:18:09Hey, hey, hey!
00:18:13Cigarette?
00:18:14Yeah, would you light one up for me?
00:18:16Want a joint?
00:18:17Oh, no.
00:18:18That's the last thing I'd get out of here.
00:18:21Ow!
00:18:23Oh, come on.
00:18:24Quit kidding around.
00:18:25I'm not kidding!
00:18:26I think I might bite my feet!
00:18:39No!
00:18:41A 54-year-old woman, native of Los Angeles,
00:18:44disappeared some 36 hours ago
00:18:47from our beach in our territory
00:18:50and is now presumed dead.
00:18:52Then, as if to intentionally add insult to injury,
00:18:55the dog,
00:18:57which I understand weighed something less than 10 pounds
00:19:00and I'm quite sure wasn't considered a mortal threat to anyone,
00:19:04had its head been
00:19:06off
00:19:07some 18 hours later.
00:19:10Last but not least,
00:19:12lovely blonde 16-year-old girl
00:19:14from Beverly Hills, no less,
00:19:16and slumming, I presume,
00:19:18suffered massive damage
00:19:21to both her once pretty legs,
00:19:24maybe crippled for life,
00:19:26had her mind blown halfway to the moon
00:19:28simply because she was foolish enough
00:19:30to lie down on this particular beach.
00:19:33You know what happened, Chicago?
00:19:35Yeah, one more remark like that
00:19:37and I bet your mouth that Chicago's where you're gonna be.
00:19:42Hey, you think I'm a little on edge, huh?
00:19:45Well, let me tell you who I've got on my back.
00:19:48I've got the daughter of the missing woman.
00:19:50I've got a friend of the daughter's, Harry Calder,
00:19:52from the Harbor Patrol.
00:19:53I've got the parents of the Beverly Hills slum maiden
00:19:56who just so happened to have contributed
00:19:58heavily to the campaign of the present mayor of this city.
00:20:01I've got the Chamber of Commerce.
00:20:03I've got Harriet Crabb, City Councilwoman
00:20:05from the 34th District.
00:20:07I've got the PC, I've got the DA,
00:20:09I've got the LG, and this.
00:20:14Telegram from the Los Angeles headquarters
00:20:16of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
00:20:19who want to know what we're doing
00:20:24to investigate, capture, and punish
00:20:28the villain responsible for the murder
00:20:30of Pfeiffer, the dog.
00:20:33I say fuck the SPCA, and I've got two dogs of my own,
00:20:37but, and this goes especially for you, Piotr,
00:20:40as long as they stay on my back,
00:20:41I'm going to be crawling all over yours.
00:20:43Is that understood?
00:20:44Yes, sir.
00:20:45And the rest of you?
00:20:46Yes, sir.
00:20:47Any questions?
00:20:48Yes, Captain.
00:20:49What the hell are we looking for?
00:20:50I don't know.
00:20:51But maybe if we dig deep enough, we'll find out.
00:21:03Finally.
00:21:25Piero, when are you going to start listening to me?
00:21:29Listening to you about what?
00:21:31And that is?
00:21:33When somebody does a crime like this, there's only one place to look.
00:21:38And it ain't under no beach!
00:21:40No? Then where?
00:21:43In the headquarters of the American Go-To-Hell Nazi Party!
00:21:48Nazi Party!
00:21:58Right on!
00:22:00Good morning!
00:22:18Morning!
00:22:20You're up kind of early.
00:22:22I couldn't sleep.
00:22:26Still swimming to work, huh?
00:22:29My major distinction.
00:22:31Your mother suggested I swim home as well.
00:22:34Sounds like something she'd say.
00:22:38Yeah.
00:22:40Well, gotta go.
00:22:41Be careful, huh?
00:22:59What do you want?
00:23:30I'm Todd Bell, Channel 10 News.
00:23:34York.
00:23:35Mark Gonzales, Santa Monica.
00:23:37Oh, Karen Pratt, Chevy at Hills.
00:23:39Sue Hardy, Chevy at Hills.
00:23:41David Dalton.
00:23:42Mom.
00:23:43Hi, Mom.
00:23:44Hi.
00:23:45Any of you out here yesterday?
00:23:46Are you kidding? All of us were.
00:23:47And you still came back again today?
00:23:49Well, it's still the best beach.
00:23:51Even though a young girl was terribly injured.
00:23:54Just 24 hours, not more than 50 yards from where you're sitting right now?
00:23:58We were here last night, man.
00:24:00Cops all over the place.
00:24:01Bulldozers, uh, cats.
00:24:03They dug the whole beach apart from one end to the other.
00:24:05We couldn't find nothing, man.
00:24:06And she goes, I'm not going back there, no way.
00:24:09So I go, you know someplace better?
00:24:11She goes, well, no, but I don't want to get chewed up by some creature or something.
00:24:14So I go, well, I'm going even if you don't.
00:24:17So guess what I did.
00:24:18I'm interested in something that you just said.
00:24:20Maybe even inadvertently, but you said creature.
00:24:24Why did you use that word?
00:24:27I don't know.
00:24:28What would you call it?
00:24:30Blood beach, man.
00:24:31Yeah, right on.
00:24:34Anything happening?
00:24:38The newspeak was his last.
00:24:44Who's working the night shift, you or Cardenas?
00:24:46Me, why?
00:24:49I put in a request for a gun.
00:24:52You what?
00:24:53He's already okayed it.
00:24:54He'll be bringing it by sometime this afternoon.
00:24:57Along with a lot more papers to sign.
00:25:00What the hell am I going to do with a gun?
00:25:02Shoot holes in the pier?
00:25:06I also talked with the LAPD.
00:25:07They're trying to get together with the county for night patrol.
00:25:12So you ought to have plenty of company.
00:25:13For God's sakes, don't shoot any of them.
00:25:16That's okay with me, as long as they don't keep me awake.
00:25:20I'm playing the booty tomorrow night.
00:25:22I haven't slept in a week.
00:25:49Don't make any stops on your way home, okay?
00:25:51I won't.
00:25:52I won't.
00:25:53I won't.
00:25:54I won't.
00:25:55I won't.
00:25:56I won't.
00:25:57I won't.
00:25:58I won't.
00:25:59I won't.
00:26:00I won't.
00:26:01I won't.
00:26:02I won't.
00:26:03I won't.
00:26:04I won't.
00:26:05I won't.
00:26:06I won't.
00:26:07I won't.
00:26:08I won't.
00:26:09I won't.
00:26:10I won't.
00:26:11I won't.
00:26:12I won't.
00:26:13I won't.
00:26:14I won't.
00:26:15I won't.
00:26:16I won't.
00:26:17I won't.
00:26:18Don't make any stops on your way home, okay?
00:26:20Okay.
00:26:21Promise?
00:26:22I promise.
00:26:23Tomorrow night we will, okay?
00:26:24Yep.
00:26:25I'll be waiting.
00:26:30Be free, okay?
00:26:34Who walked out when the times got hard
00:26:36When the truck broke down and the whole front yard
00:26:39Was it me?
00:26:41Or was it you?
00:26:43Who shot pool all night long
00:26:46And wound up dead and on the crack of dawn
00:26:49Oh, that was you, darling
00:26:51And that was me
00:26:53We are just fools for each other
00:26:56Me and you
00:26:58We are lovers
00:27:00We are lovers
00:27:02We are lovers
00:27:04We are lovers
00:27:09For each other
00:27:12We are lovers, in fact
00:28:13Uh-huh
00:28:38Hey
00:28:40It's okay
00:28:42Poor bird.
00:28:44What happened to your wing?
00:28:46Oh.
00:28:48No!
00:28:50No!
00:28:52No!
00:28:54No!
00:28:56No!
00:28:58No!
00:29:00No!
00:29:02No!
00:29:04No!
00:29:06No!
00:29:08No!
00:29:10No!
00:29:20No!
00:29:22No!
00:29:30No!
00:29:32No!
00:29:34No!
00:29:36No!
00:29:38Hey, Lieutenant, you going to give us a statement?
00:29:55No, nothing.
00:29:56How about off the record?
00:29:57We'll have to talk to Captain Pearson.
00:29:58Ah, that's no good.
00:29:59He's got nothing to say either.
00:30:00Well, I can't do nothing for you.
00:30:01How come nobody ever talks to me?
00:30:02Because you don't have anything to say.
00:30:03No?
00:30:04That's right.
00:30:06Hey, how about having the guts to call it as it is?
00:30:07What would that be?
00:30:08Keep your mouth shut, Sergeant.
00:30:09What's the harm, huh?
00:30:10This thing I wrote just gets his tool ripped off.
00:30:11I'm supposed to be unhappy?
00:30:12I'm supposed to feel sad for this creep?
00:30:13I don't.
00:30:14You don't.
00:30:15No one around here don't.
00:30:16So why are we kidding around here, this institution of ours?
00:30:17You're going to print that?
00:30:18Yeah.
00:30:19In the Benet Brick Messenger?
00:30:20Hey, Sergeant, just between you and me,
00:30:21I'm going to print that.
00:30:22You're going to print that?
00:30:23Yeah.
00:30:24You're going to print that?
00:30:25Yeah.
00:30:26You're going to print that?
00:30:27Yeah.
00:30:28You're going to print that?
00:30:29Yeah.
00:30:30You're going to print that?
00:30:31Yeah.
00:30:32It's the Benet Brick Messenger.
00:30:33Hey, Sergeant, just between you and me,
00:30:36the power to the people.
00:30:37Oh, oh, piano.
00:30:39Look, somebody has some regard for what
00:30:41I have to say around here.
00:30:49You got any opinions, Harry?
00:30:52None that I care to say out loud.
00:30:55You and me both.
00:30:57Listen, I'm going to need some cooperation,
00:30:59but more than that I'm going to need
00:31:01I'm going to need your support.
00:31:03You got it.
00:31:05Jesus Christ.
00:31:07What did I do to deserve this?
00:31:10I put in a request for more people starting tomorrow.
00:31:15Yeah, I've done that too. I've got some geologists going to show up.
00:31:20A mess.
00:31:22It's when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, you can't get to it.
00:31:32We found it! We found it!
00:31:34We found the guy's wiener!
00:31:37Ow! Come over here!
00:31:39This place is low-life, kids.
00:31:41Give me. Look.
00:31:43What we must try to do is try to define some kind of living thing.
00:31:49That's, I don't know.
00:31:51I don't know.
00:31:53I don't know.
00:31:55I don't know.
00:31:57I don't know.
00:31:59Living thing.
00:32:01That's either a mutated species or perhaps a creature currently in a state of evolution.
00:32:11They recently come from the sea and now lives subterraneanly in moist, probably dark places.
00:32:28But we'll one day venture out into the light and perhaps may even learn to walk just as we do on the Earth.
00:32:42That's a hell of a thing to look forward to.
00:32:45When one is asked to speculate on the unknown, one should not anticipate pragmatic answers.
00:32:55Yeah, it's just that this isn't going anywhere.
00:32:58I mean, either you have ideas that I can understand and act on,
00:33:02or you got a lot of scientific mumbo-jumbo, which is as useless as whiskers on a sausage.
00:33:08So, what's it gonna be?
00:33:13Mumbo-jumbo?
00:33:16All right, get the hell out of here.
00:33:24I'm the one who spilled the drink down your dress.
00:33:42Yeah.
00:33:44Just a minute.
00:33:46It's your steward's friend.
00:33:48Good luck.
00:33:50Hello, Marie.
00:33:51Where are you coming from?
00:33:52Oh.
00:33:54Terrific.
00:33:55How was the flight?
00:33:58You did?
00:34:00What is it?
00:34:02Well, will you tell me if I guess?
00:34:05Okay.
00:34:07What time?
00:34:09Should I make that dinner?
00:34:12Terrific.
00:34:13I'll see you at eight.
00:34:14With bells on.
00:34:16Bye-bye.
00:34:18Oh, hi.
00:34:22I thought maybe you would have left.
00:34:26How's your friend?
00:34:27Is she okay?
00:34:28She'll be okay.
00:34:32I came to ask you to dinner tonight.
00:34:36Tonight?
00:34:37Yeah.
00:34:41You already made plans?
00:34:44Just two seconds before you walk through that door.
00:34:47Well, maybe tomorrow.
00:34:50It's a date.
00:34:52Good.
00:34:54Well, see you then.
00:34:56What time?
00:34:57Seven.
00:34:58I'll be there.
00:34:59Bye-bye.
00:35:01Bye.
00:35:06You never did get over her, did you?
00:35:10She still expects to see her mother come walking through that door, doesn't she?
00:35:15What else can't she think?
00:35:18I don't know.
00:35:19It's just that with all the crazy things happening around here, I'm afraid she's setting herself up for a big fall.
00:36:19Bye-bye.
00:36:50Help!
00:36:53Help me!
00:36:55You hurt me!
00:36:57Help!
00:37:00Help me!
00:37:03Help!
00:37:04Help!
00:37:05Help!
00:37:06Help!
00:37:07Help!
00:37:08Help!
00:37:20Hi. Got stood up.
00:37:23Hi.
00:37:27I brought...
00:37:31And that's the best California has to offer?
00:37:33Yeah.
00:37:34I brought my own dinner. Is that all right?
00:37:36Sure.
00:37:37Is this a bad time for you?
00:37:38No.
00:37:39I can go home. I can eat it out here.
00:37:40Come on.
00:37:41No, it's all right.
00:37:42Don't be silly. Come on in.
00:37:43You sure now?
00:37:44Yeah, yeah. I'm sure.
00:37:45Well, would you take the bread, then?
00:37:46Yeah. Oh, yeah.
00:37:47I'll get the flowers, too.
00:37:48No, no.
00:37:49Oh, dear.
00:37:57I wish I was hungry.
00:38:00What'd you eat?
00:38:01I went out for a cheeseburger.
00:38:03Uh, Moose's Place?
00:38:05Yeah.
00:38:06I suppose I'll live to regret it.
00:38:07From Moose's Place?
00:38:08No.
00:38:09But Tommy and Teddy's down the block?
00:38:11Now, that's another story all together.
00:38:18Hmm?
00:38:19Hmm?
00:38:20Your friend, Mr. Greymail.
00:38:22I'd worry about her if she hadn't done it before.
00:38:25Stood you up?
00:38:27Mm-hmm.
00:38:28Stewardess on polar flights.
00:38:30Long hours.
00:38:32No sleep.
00:38:34All that food out of radar ranges.
00:38:36Probably gets to you after a while.
00:38:38Probably get a little loopy.
00:38:42And now?
00:38:47That's right.
00:38:48Your husband works for the airlines, doesn't he?
00:38:51Yes.
00:38:53Only he's not my husband anymore.
00:38:59We've been separated for five months, and we're getting a divorce.
00:39:05Hmm.
00:39:13Did your mother know about it?
00:39:15No.
00:39:17When were you planning on telling her?
00:39:21I had to, I guess.
00:39:23You know, I just didn't want her to worry.
00:39:27You know how it is.
00:39:29Daughter, suddenly single, tainted by a failed marriage,
00:39:33destined to become a bitter divorcee, despising all men.
00:39:37Doesn't much sound like the way your mother would think.
00:39:40No.
00:39:42No, it doesn't.
00:39:44No, it doesn't. I guess I would...
00:39:47I was afraid that that's how I would think.
00:39:50Well...
00:39:53Whose soap? Yours or mine?
00:39:56Well, mine's closer.
00:39:58That a girl.
00:40:10Thanks for the company.
00:40:12I enjoyed it.
00:40:15Are we still on for tomorrow night?
00:40:17Sure.
00:40:19Do you want to come to my place?
00:40:21You haven't seen it in a long time.
00:40:23It's been seven years.
00:40:26It's undergone a lot of changes.
00:40:37Good night.
00:40:39Good night, Harry.
00:41:09Good night.
00:41:398-1-9, I'm 8-1.

00:42:27A little bit.
00:42:29Harry, ma'am, oh, find anything down there?
00:42:48Any buried treasure, oh!
00:42:49One forty-five, second hand, it's a ninety-six, okay?
00:42:56Okay, okay, okay.
00:42:57Six yard with a seven, okay?
00:42:58Six yard with a seven, okay?
00:42:59Okay.
00:43:00Okay.
00:43:01Okay.
00:43:02Okay.
00:43:03Okay.
00:43:04Okay.
00:43:05Okay.
00:43:06Hey, Harry, look.
00:43:17Look how the shield is done.
00:43:24If I'm not mistaken, Captain, you have been spending the taxpayer's money rather freely
00:43:33on an investigation that has taken the better part of a week and unless you're
00:43:41withholding some information you've yet to come up with anything that might even
00:43:45remotely justify your time and our money and you know if I'm not mistaken
00:43:50councilwoman you were one of the loudest supporters of our wonderful proposition
00:43:5613 our glorious taxpayers revolt which while assuring you another term in
00:44:01office just about cut the twigs and berries off the police department captain
00:44:06is merely showing us the stuff of which he's truly made you grandstanding 12
00:44:12just a minute here you it's not no scissor build probate you can't talk
00:44:17like that oh no watch me every one of you miserable suck-ups is the same you
00:44:24want what you want but when it comes to paying for it all of a sudden you go
00:44:28deaf dumb and blind like the man said you get what you pay for so if any of
00:44:34you crouch bunnies thinks for a minute that me and my men are gonna want
00:44:36protecting and serving the interests of a bunch of amen snorters like you you
00:44:41better start flocking over the coin and I mean now let us know what you decide
00:44:47you know where to find us come on piano break up get out of here before we get
00:44:51what they've got.
00:44:56Chicago to get my medal.
00:45:16Sorry about your friend. What do you get.
00:45:21Somebody better do some fast thinking and start coming up with some answers to
00:45:24a lot of hard questions like are we looking for a person or a thing the real
00:45:30is it unreal.
00:45:34Maybe it's nothing like that maybe there's a perfectly large answer the
00:45:39book. Nobody's found out the answer to it yet that's all.
00:45:54If it's human or even if it's animal. It's got to. Have a place to go back to.
00:46:03Every living thing does right living thing but their imagination yet. You've
00:46:09got to be grounded to something. For. Reality and imagination.
00:46:18There haven't been any patterns they'll have there. Nothing that anybody's been
00:46:24able to figure out hit and run here there anywhere.
00:46:30Not anywhere. Never above the ground.
00:46:33So. If you're right if there is a place where this lives. Then chances are it's
00:46:47below sea level. Where. Below what. We dug up the beach under what
00:46:57canals the sewers somebody's wine cellar where the hell do you begin.
00:47:04Maybe by looking in places where no one else is gone. When no one else is thought
00:47:09to look I didn't see right. I guess. I wasn't too good at that even when we were
00:47:16kids. What do you think you know Harry.
00:47:35Nothing. You want to.
00:47:39Drink tonight. But. I'm sorry.
00:47:50I hope you'll be there Joe. I just saw some good.
00:52:09I.
00:54:39Gave up.
00:54:44When the wind blew cold.
00:54:47It wasn't me. It wasn't you.
00:54:54Held on when the blues came down. Took care when the time was spent.
00:55:03That was you.
00:55:04And that was me.
00:55:06We are just.
00:55:15We are.
00:55:19We're not.
00:55:25For each.
00:55:34Other.
00:55:54Very sorry to have to put you to this Mrs.
00:55:57Hinch. But if you could describe what Mr. Hinch was wearing when he left home you help our investigation very much.
00:56:06Okay.
00:56:08About shoes will start from the ground up was he wearing shoes.
00:56:14He was wearing his his white mesh slip on casuals with the you know the kind that have the rope.
00:56:20I know the kind.
00:56:23Brown socks the nylon executive type.
00:56:27Of me I'm not familiar with those socks.
00:56:30I'm sorry they're the they're the kind of come up fairly high so that if you're wearing a suit you should happen to cross your legs well then your leg won't be showing.
00:56:41Go on.
00:56:44Blue and red.
00:56:46Madras Bermuda.
00:56:47Bleeding matters they were kind of old but you know they were his favorite pair they were still in good condition you know how it matters after a few washings you know colors kind of start to fade together.
00:56:59That happens to me.
00:57:02Any jewelry.
00:57:03Yes.
00:57:05He's wearing it.
00:57:06Florentine gold pink earring it was kind of like yours except it wasn't smooth like that and it had a tiger's eye.
00:57:13And.
00:57:14Black on black luminous dial electronic 17 joules goober watch the matching black band you know the band with the color little holes cut out.
00:57:26Can the shirt.
00:57:29He was wearing a T shirt.
00:57:31Any color.
00:57:32It's aquamarine.
00:57:35Aquamarine.
00:57:37You know kind of light blue green.
00:57:40Oh.
00:57:40Was there a certain patent to it or was it just a plain old T shirt.
00:57:45Plain T shirt but he had a printing on it kind of block letters in two rows bright red.
00:57:54Said need gas.
00:57:57He means.
00:58:02He has a good sense of humor.
00:58:04It's a human.
00:58:05It's 20 minutes past noon the date October 7th the place the Pacific Coast of Southern California 76 degrees skies clear the water is warm perfect late summer day perhaps but not a fistful of beach that you hope to enjoy because here for hundreds of yards you'll find nothing but desolation and.
00:58:30Because here for hundreds of yards you'll find nothing but desolation and loneliness a seemingly endless nightmare of terror and violence bewildering disappearances.
00:58:43And death.
00:58:45As a nine o'clock this morning there have been 62 reported sightings of what is affectionately come to be known as the creature from blood beach.
00:58:55It has been seen as far north as Santa Barbara south to Baja east to the locker room of Dodger Stadium West Catalina.
00:59:03We have 14 Polaroid pictures nine of which are in color five in black and white.
00:59:07It has been described in some cases with apparently sincere hysteria as being large and green and hairy as being small and colorless and bald as having multiple arms and legs as having no arms and legs with and without wings from one to a dozen eyes slimy dry rough smooth and one particularly vivid description mailed anonymously from Bokoima it was without a doubt the Hunchback of Notre Dame.
00:59:38Now our favorite coroner Dr. Demetrius who probably phoned in all these descriptions himself informs me that we are indeed looking for something non-human which really narrows things down considerably because now all we have to do is to direct our attention to something that might be invisible or as big as a house or as small as a microbe or slippery as a grease pig or as far away as the moon, right folks?
01:00:04Okay, now for the good news.
01:00:09Our beloved councilwoman from the infamous 34th district the lovely Harriet Graham has had a spiritual awakening and decided in all her wisdom to throw a considerable wave in the direction of our very own coroner.
01:00:23Now fellas what that means is that starting this afternoon we will probably get a few extra minutes signed for this investigation.
01:00:30Now what that means is that unless we produce some results quick all our asses are going to be in a sling.
01:00:37You understand?
01:00:39Now what I want is some creative thinking around here.
01:00:43Come on, stretch your minds, tickle your brains, eat a lot of fish, get stoned, I don't care what it takes but just bring me something I can build on.
01:00:51Bring me a notion, bring me a theory that makes sense.
01:00:53Talk to your friends, talk to your kids, talk to your wives if you have to, I don't care what you have to do, just bring me a gift.
01:01:01Because I'm hanging on by my fingernails and I'm sliding fast.
01:01:05So if you ever loved me, now's the time to prove it.
01:01:10Hey Moose, tell the truth, how bad is all this shit hurting?
01:01:15Ah, I figured it would be 50% off yesterday today and yesterday I was 50% off the day before.
01:01:22No kidding, it's that bad, eh?
01:01:25That bad.
01:01:27Yesterday 50% today, you know I tell the truth, I don't know how you're going to hang in there.
01:01:31Give him a point.
01:01:33What is the point Royko, or are you just trying to cheer Moose up?
01:01:36Don't make me heartless.
01:01:38I'm just interested in the economics of this thing, that's all.
01:01:41You know a small business person like this Moose over here should have some sort of pension fund or something.
01:01:46When a killing thing like this happens, they can shred water a little bit.
01:01:50We do that in Chicago, we got associations to handle any contingencies.
01:01:55Old people, ship captains, bricklayers, milk deliveries, anything you want we got.
01:02:03Queers, perverts, and that's what you need.
01:02:07Maybe it's time for the greasy spoon guys to get together and walk around and make a little slush fund.
01:02:12They walk around and make a little slush fund.
01:02:15That way they're able to stand tall when the whacker runs up and down the sand slicing people away.
01:02:21At least you don't have to roll over and put up rent signs.
01:02:25And maybe you become the hero of the boardwalk Moose.
01:02:28You just walk around and get a catchy name, maybe like Murder Insurance Inc.
01:02:38Get out of the way.
01:02:40You too.
01:02:42Get out of the way.
01:03:05Hey, it's the CPA.
01:03:07Bill, he killed him.
01:03:09Did you get a chance to talk to the man right before he's dead? Come on.
01:03:10Is his wife upstairs? Come on, give us a statement, Captain.
01:03:13Hold it down. There's going to be a medical report issued in 30 minutes.
01:03:16In the meantime, yes, the man is alive, he's resting comfortably, and yes, it is Alan Henshaw.
01:03:21But why, where, when, how, why, we don't know, and that's what's great.
01:03:25Well, now, he's under heavy sedation.
01:03:28Is he going to live?
01:03:30He ain't helping.
01:03:32Well, wait, what? A broken bone?
01:03:34Who named the Henshaw?
01:03:36Captain, you haven't answered the question.
01:03:37You might as well tell him what's the difference.
01:03:41Doctors figure that there's been considerable brain damage.
01:03:44How considerable?
01:03:46Vegetable soup.
01:03:48And a bitter enough to keep him from telling us anything.
01:03:50There's something else.
01:03:52What's that, Michael?
01:03:54Somebody ripped his tongue out.
01:04:08Daddy!
01:04:27Mrs. Selden!
01:04:31Beatrice Claus, Mrs. Selden!
01:04:34You really shouldn't be down here, you know.
01:04:37Come on, I'll drive you back up to the strand.
01:04:43Mr. Seldon, come on now. It's dangerous under there.
01:05:01It's kind of sad the way things have changed, Mr. Seldon.
01:05:05You and me can still remember when all this was wide open down here.
01:05:10No fences, no trash, no whiskey bottles. Remember that?
01:05:18It wasn't too long ago. I used to come down here all the time.
01:05:22Right here under the pier. Just to sit and watch.
01:05:27Listen to the waves pounding against those timbers.
01:05:30Watch the light come through here when the sun went down.
01:05:32Shadows stretching way out across the beach.
01:05:39What do you say, Mr. Seldon?
01:05:41Bet you never went for a ride in the Harbor Patrol Bronco.
01:06:02Please?
01:06:06Tell me! Tell me!
01:06:32Mr. Seldon!
01:07:02Mr. Seldon!
01:07:32Mr. Seldon!
01:08:03I didn't leave it open.
01:08:05Well, just when I left her.
01:08:06Okay.
01:08:31Jesus, you played down here when you were kids?
01:08:34Well, it was a lot cleaner then.
01:08:36Yeah.

01:10:32Help me!
01:10:33I expect it will be back.
01:10:36And I also imagine it will leave just as quickly when it realizes that its home has been invaded.
01:10:42What do you want to do, Captain?
01:10:44What the hell question is that, Piano?
01:10:46You blow the thing, the kingdom comes.
01:10:48That's how you handle monsters.
01:10:50Please.
01:10:51We must wait.
01:10:53He's right.
01:10:54I'll tell you what I want to do, Piano.
01:10:57I want you to work it out fast if we get a couple of cameras down here.
01:11:00Take cameras, infrared.
01:11:02I want to be able to monitor this place from upstairs, out on the strand.
01:11:05Okay, but if the doc's right and it does come back, what do we do then?
01:11:09All right.
01:11:10I want some demolition men down here.
01:11:11I want the place wired within an hour.
01:11:14I want to be able to push one plunger when I want to and if I need to,
01:11:17that'll blow the hell out of anything that's down here.
01:11:20Now you're fucking talking, Captain.
01:11:23Come on.
01:11:29Do you want coffee?
01:11:46The vigil continues.
01:11:47It's been almost five hours since the grisly discovery
01:11:50in the basement of a building which no longer exists,
01:11:53a structure condemned and torn down more than a quarter of a century ago.
01:11:57Here at the entrance to Southern California's most famous fear,
01:12:00the putrefied remains of 16 bodies have been found so far and removed,
01:12:05but only three have been formally identified.
01:12:08Some of the big questions tonight, why did these people die?
01:12:13Who or what killed them?
01:12:15At this point, no one seems ready to say,
01:12:17and it's very possible that no one will ever know.
01:12:20Still, we watch and wait.
01:12:23Time is passing slowly here, but there's one thing of which we can be certain.
01:12:28No resident of this community will sleep before this night has ended.
01:12:47No resident of this community will sleep before this night has ended.
01:12:53♪♪
01:13:02♪♪
01:13:14The chemo dermis.
01:13:18I know that sound.
01:13:19You're talking to me, doc?
01:13:22Did you know, Sergeant, that there are quite a variety of creatures
01:13:29on and particularly below God's green earth,
01:13:35each and every one of which is innately capable of a remarkable act
01:13:44commonly known as a regenerative process?
01:13:51Yeah.
01:13:52Yeah, fascinating.
01:13:57My main concern, which I'm sure is not shared by you, Sergeant,
01:14:04is our creature here, this fellow that we're waiting for.
01:14:13What if he possesses these similar abilities?
01:14:21Yeah, so?
01:14:24So just think about it for a minute, Sergeant.
01:14:32What if I'm right?
01:14:36What will happen after we've pushed the plunger
01:14:40and thrown this poor creature into smithereens?
01:14:46What might become of each smithereen?
01:14:51♪♪
01:15:01♪♪
01:15:11♪♪
01:15:25You know something, Keanu?
01:15:26What's that, Captain?
01:15:29Real men don't believe in monsters.
01:15:33No, sir, they don't.
01:15:44Hey, Jack, how you doing?
01:15:48Fine, sir, good.
01:15:49Yeah, how's your lady?
01:15:51She'll be all right.
01:15:55It's a little bit of a shock, huh?
01:15:58Anything?
01:16:01It's as quiet as a tomb around here.
01:16:09Want a piece of this?
01:16:11No, thanks.
01:16:15Sergeant, you'd better come in here.
01:16:26You got something?
01:16:28Where's Pearson?
01:16:29He's up on the pier getting a call.
01:16:31I suggest you give him a call, Sergeant.
01:16:33What for? Do I gotta tell him something?
01:16:37Look!
01:16:38Jesus Christ!
01:16:41Sergeant, call your captain.
01:16:43Now!
01:16:44Call him!
01:16:45What is it?
01:16:46What the hell is it?
01:16:47Sergeant, who the fuck cares what it is?
01:16:50I care, we care.
01:16:52I don't know what it is.
01:16:53I don't know what it is.
01:16:54I care, we care.
01:17:23That's dead.
01:17:26How are you doing?
01:17:28What are you going to do?
01:17:29All he's fit to shoot is run you a stick.
01:17:37What the hell was that?
01:17:38Stop him!
01:17:40Stop him!
01:17:52Stop him!
01:18:22Stop him!
01:18:23Stop him!
01:18:53Come on.
01:19:09Come on.
01:19:10Take your home.
01:19:22Come on.
01:19:41Sean, are you hungry?
01:19:48Sean, are you after me?
01:19:53Sean, would you answer me?
01:19:56Do you want a sandwich or not?
01:19:59Sean?
01:20:01Sean!
01:20:03Sean, can you get over the phone?
01:20:06Sean!
01:20:08Sean!
01:20:11Sean!
01:20:17Come on!
01:20:41Come on!
01:21:11Sean!
01:21:41Sean!
01:22:11Sean!
01:22:41Sean!
