1. This is KABC radio.
Copy !req
2. I'm Geri Nichols.
Copy !req
3. Latest crime statistics released today
Copy !req
4. show an alarming rise in violence.
Copy !req
5. In the last five years,
Copy !req
6. homicides in Los Angeles
county are up 79%.
Copy !req
7. Robberies are up 68%.
Copy !req
8. Aggravated assault,
another violent crime,
Copy !req
9. shows an increase of 59%.
Copy !req
10. Rapes have increased 61%
Copy !req
11. and lesser crimes are up, too.
Copy !req
12. Today, I spoke to Los
Angeles police commissioner,
Copy !req
13. Herman Baldwin.
Copy !req
14. The fear of crime
has brought a deterioration
Copy !req
15. of our community.
Copy !req
16. It's almost as if we've
been struck by enemy bombs.
Copy !req
17. The number of citizens killed and maimed
Copy !req
18. by criminal violence has produced
Copy !req
19. in me a great and personal resolve.
Copy !req
20. The only way we're going to win —
Copy !req
21. and make no mistake, this is a war —
Copy !req
22. The only way we'll win is
by assuming the offensive.
Copy !req
23. Positive policing is the answer.
Copy !req
24. We've got to deploy all our resources
Copy !req
25. or criminal violence will
destroy our community.
Copy !req
26. But what are the resources needed
Copy !req
27. to diminish the alarming rise in crimes?
Copy !req
28. There are those who say
heavier prison sentences
Copy !req
29. and an increased police
facility are enough.
Copy !req
30. Yeah, I'm one of them.
Copy !req
31. There are others who believe
Copy !req
32. that prison never cured anyone.
Copy !req
33. And judging by the rise in violence,
Copy !req
34. it never deterred anyone, either.
Copy !req
35. Here comes the commercial.
Copy !req
36. Dr. Irving Clark...
Copy !req
37. I know it's your radio station,
Copy !req
38. and I sure like Miss Nichols,
Copy !req
39. but I can't take this.
Copy !req
40. It's not my radio station,
Copy !req
41. I'm only the architect for the new one.
Copy !req
42. And Miss Nichols is late.
Copy !req
43. She's still on the radio.
Copy !req
44. They recorded that earlier.
Copy !req
45. Hey, there she is now.
Copy !req
46. Don't be late for dinner.
Copy !req
47. Your daughter sure ate well last time.
Copy !req
48. That's 'cause you're a great cook.
Copy !req
49. For her, nothing is too much.
Copy !req
50. We won't be late.
Copy !req
51. We were supposed to be there at 10:30.
Copy !req
52. We'll make it.
Copy !req
53. The senator's aide would
not get off the phone.
Copy !req
54. Oh, and Los Angeles
magazine's gone for my idea
Copy !req
55. of a series of articles on
criminal rehabilitation.
Copy !req
56. That's great.
Copy !req
57. Hello, baby.
Copy !req
58. You look really good.
Copy !req
59. Hi, Carol.
We're not late, are we?
Copy !req
60. Has there been any
progress this week, doctor?
Copy !req
61. Nurse tells me she asked
for dinner on Thursday night.
Copy !req
62. That's the fifth week running
she's said a few words.
Copy !req
63. That's not much after two years.
Copy !req
64. Will she ever come back to me?
Copy !req
65. Will she ever be normal again?
Copy !req
66. You're her father, Mr. Kersey.
Copy !req
67. You can only give her your love.
Copy !req
68. And your prayers, too.
Copy !req
69. I remember you liked
kites when you were a kid.
Copy !req
70. Do you still like 'em?
Copy !req
71. We haven't bought
you your ice cream yet.
Copy !req
72. You mean we haven't bought
you your ice cream yet.
Copy !req
73. A man has to have some vices.
Copy !req
74. But I'll tell you what.
Copy !req
75. You choose whatever you
want from this table
Copy !req
76. and I'll go off and buy the ice cream.
Copy !req
77. Look at him.
Copy !req
78. So, what he look like?
Copy !req
79. Let's do it.
Copy !req
80. Out the way, motherfucker.
Copy !req
81. Get out the way!
Copy !req
82. Watch out, asshole!
Copy !req
83. Go get your ice cream, man.
Copy !req
84. Asshole.
Copy !req
85. They got his wallet!
Copy !req
86. It's nice.
Copy !req
87. Where's my wallet?
Copy !req
88. I ain't got it.
Copy !req
89. Guess what?
Copy !req
90. I got up to the front of the line
Copy !req
91. and discovered I'd forgotten my wallet.
Copy !req
92. This time you two come with me.
Copy !req
93. But I'm gonna have to borrow some money.
Copy !req
94. I think we can manage that.
Copy !req
95. Carol, where have you been?
Copy !req
96. I haven't seen you
for a couple of weeks.
Copy !req
97. I thought you'd deserted me.
Copy !req
98. What happened, Paul?
Copy !req
99. Nothing.
Copy !req
100. Well, you didn't forget your wallet.
Copy !req
101. You never forget anything.
Copy !req
102. I'll tell you about it later.
Copy !req
103. I could stay.
Copy !req
104. I could do the interview another time.
Copy !req
105. The senator's only here for a day.
Copy !req
106. If I were you, I wouldn't
miss the opportunity.
Copy !req
107. I'll see you at dinner, okay?
Copy !req
108. Okay.
Copy !req
109. Hey, Paul.
Copy !req
110. You coming aboard?
Copy !req
111. This is the place.
Copy !req
112. Super fine.
Copy !req
113. Easy, my man.
Copy !req
114. We got business.
Copy !req
115. Mike, I thought you weren't coming.
Copy !req
116. Oh, you know I wouldn't.
Copy !req
117. Have you told Jenny?
Copy !req
118. I will.
Copy !req
119. You said you were going to hell her
Copy !req
120. last night.
Copy !req
121. Who is it?
Copy !req
122. I've got a delivery for Mr. Kersey.
Copy !req
123. Who from?
Copy !req
124. Who is this delivery from?
Copy !req
125. I can't rub out 10 years of a marriage
Copy !req
126. like it never happened.
Copy !req
127. I've got to think of the children.
Copy !req
128. Come on!
Copy !req
129. Just her, no one else here.
Copy !req
130. And we wanted to give Mr.
Kersey his wallet back.
Copy !req
131. Personally.
Copy !req
132. Hey, man, look at that.
Copy !req
133. Isn't that pretty?
Copy !req
134. No, no!
Copy !req
135. No, no!
Copy !req
136. No!
Copy !req
137. Lady, you disturb the neighbors
Copy !req
138. and I'm gonna cut you into little pieces
Copy !req
139. and eat you for dinner.
Copy !req
140. Hey, Jiver! Save some for me, man!
Copy !req
141. Getting it good,
Jiver, getting it good.
Copy !req
142. My turn now, man.
Copy !req
143. You want her, take her in the bedroom.
Copy !req
144. Jiver, check out the window for the man.
Copy !req
145. We can't hang in here forever.
Copy !req
146. Hey, I want him.
Copy !req
147. Just be cool, man.
Copy !req
148. He'll come.
Copy !req
149. Nirvana, you want a bit?
Copy !req
150. Is there any left?
Copy !req
151. You wait in here, watch for the man.
Copy !req
152. All right now, lady.
Copy !req
153. Quietly. Do it nice.
Copy !req
154. Are you hungry?
Copy !req
155. Let's see what Rosaria has for dinner.
Copy !req
156. Rosaria?
Copy !req
157. Rosaria, we're home!
Copy !req
158. Man, you...
Copy !req
159. Smack the whore.
Copy !req
160. Get her, man!
Copy !req
161. Let's get the fuck outta here!
Copy !req
162. Use the back!
Copy !req
163. Take her. She's seen us,
she can finger us all.
Copy !req
164. Come on.
Copy !req
165. Keep moving.
Copy !req
166. Get in there, girl!
Copy !req
167. There is only one truth
Copy !req
168. about the use of the death penalty.
Copy !req
169. Why do we kill people who kill people
Copy !req
170. to show that killing is wrong?
Copy !req
171. Thank you, Senator.
Copy !req
172. That was Senator Robert McLean
Copy !req
173. and this has been Newsdesk,
Copy !req
174. brought to you by KABC Los Angeles.
Copy !req
175. I'm Geri Nichols.
Copy !req
176. Nirvana, how long we gonna stay here?
Copy !req
177. Ah, it's nice here.
Copy !req
178. Yeah, and we got a nice little lady.
Copy !req
179. What are we gonna do?
Copy !req
180. Waste her?
Copy !req
181. She's seen us, she can finger us all.
Copy !req
182. The man saw me twice. Up close.
Copy !req
183. Aw, man.
Copy !req
184. We look all the same to whitey, anyway.
Copy !req
185. He'll never pick you out, Jiver.
Copy !req
186. I'm gonna fuck you, lady.
Copy !req
187. You're strange.
Copy !req
188. Paul!
Copy !req
189. Paul!
Copy !req
190. Paul, is that you?
Copy !req
191. This is C680.
Copy !req
192. Mr. Kersey, I'm Inspector Mankiewicz.
Copy !req
193. I know it's a terrible time.
Copy !req
194. Any news of my daughter?
Copy !req
195. Not yet, but as soon
as we hear anything,
Copy !req
196. we'll let you know.
Copy !req
197. Mr. Kersey, the descriptions
you gave the officers
Copy !req
198. about your attackers...
Copy !req
199. they're very unclear.
Copy !req
200. Is there anything you can add?
Copy !req
201. I came in this front door.
Copy !req
202. There were two men standing there,
Copy !req
203. there were at least two men back there.
Copy !req
204. One of them hits me on the head
Copy !req
205. and I'm knocked unconscious.
Copy !req
206. Surely, you saw one of them
before you were attacked.
Copy !req
207. Hey,
I told your men everything I know.
Copy !req
208. We understand that the
same sort of thing happened
Copy !req
209. in New York City.
Copy !req
210. We ran it down in our computer.
Copy !req
211. Yeah, that's right.
Copy !req
212. Some muggers followed my
wife and daughter home
Copy !req
213. from the market.
Copy !req
214. The police there got a
very good description
Copy !req
215. of the muggers, too.
Copy !req
216. But it didn't do any good.
Copy !req
217. We do what we can.
Copy !req
218. One of my men found this on the floor.
Copy !req
219. Oh, honey, if they
don't need us anymore,
Copy !req
220. let's go back to my place.
Copy !req
221. They're going to be all night.
Copy !req
222. Mr. Kersey, we just got
some news about your daughter.
Copy !req
223. How is she?
Copy !req
224. Is this your daughter, Mr. Kersey?
Copy !req
225. Mr. Kersey, is that Carol?
Copy !req
226. Get some sleep, darling.
Copy !req
227. You go on back to bed.
Copy !req
228. I want to stay here a while.
Copy !req
229. I'll be along in a moment.
Copy !req
230. Unto almighty God
Copy !req
231. we commend the soul of our sister,
Carol,
Copy !req
232. and we commit her body to the ground.
Copy !req
233. Earth to earth, ashes
to ashes, dust to dust.
Copy !req
234. In sure and certain
hope of a resurrection
Copy !req
235. unto eternal life
Copy !req
236. through our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Copy !req
237. Don't worry about
the new building, Paul.
Copy !req
238. It can wait.
Copy !req
239. Oh, I'll be back soon.
Copy !req
240. It's not necessary.
Copy !req
241. It is for me.
Copy !req
242. Thanks for the use of your cabin.
Copy !req
243. This is the new model, Paul.
Copy !req
244. The department of building and safety
Copy !req
245. approved it while you were away.
Copy !req
246. Has Elliott chosen
a building type yet?
Copy !req
247. We've drawn up what the
building might look like
Copy !req
248. in three different renderings,
Copy !req
249. so we could compare how they'd look.
Copy !req
250. Call him up and make an
appointment and I'll run it over.
Copy !req
251. His wife will probably make the choice,
Copy !req
252. but we'll let him run
through the motions anyway.
Copy !req
253. Yes, get me Mr. Cass at
the radio station, please.
Copy !req
254. Our market is local news.
Copy !req
255. Fires, traffic jams, droughts.
Copy !req
256. I'm not so sure, Elliott.
Copy !req
257. We've got our awards for
international reporting.
Copy !req
258. I don't give a damn about awards.
Copy !req
259. KBEX's local news has
kept us out of first place
Copy !req
260. too damn long.
Copy !req
261. You're the boss, Elliot.
Copy !req
262. If you want, we'll take them
on traffic jam for traffic jam.
Copy !req
263. Paul!
Copy !req
264. See you later.
Copy !req
265. Why didn't somebody
tell me you were here?
Copy !req
266. Got some news for ya, your
building's been approved.
Copy !req
267. What's it gonna cost me?
Copy !req
268. Well, we could get it in a steel frame
Copy !req
269. with reflective glass,
Copy !req
270. it'll cost you $250 a square foot.
Copy !req
271. Wooden frame $100 a square foot.
Copy !req
272. Concrete, $150 a square foot.
Copy !req
273. All the figures are right here.
Copy !req
274. I can't believe these prices.
Copy !req
275. Welcome back.
Copy !req
276. I see you made a noisy comeback.
Copy !req
277. Hello?
Copy !req
278. Yeah, yeah, go ahead.
Copy !req
279. I heard you were in the building.
Copy !req
280. I was just gonna drop by and see you.
Copy !req
281. See you tonight.
Copy !req
282. Oh, Geri, you know, I don't feel like
Copy !req
283. I'm fit company for socializing.
Copy !req
284. Not yet, anyway.
Copy !req
285. Paul, are you out there?
Copy !req
286. Come on back!
Copy !req
287. Mr. Kersey, I was at your office,
Copy !req
288. they told me you'd be here.
Copy !req
289. We were hoping you'd come down
Copy !req
290. and look at some mugshots,
Copy !req
291. see if you can pick out
some of those people
Copy !req
292. that were in your apartment.
Copy !req
293. You know, it happened so fast.
Copy !req
294. No, I don't think so.
Copy !req
295. The pictures might jog your memory.
Copy !req
296. There really isn't any use.
Copy !req
297. Excuse me.
Copy !req
298. The greatest
scripture in this Bible is,
Copy !req
299. "Blessed are the pure in heart..."
Copy !req
300. My heart's desire and prayer to God
Copy !req
301. for Israel is that they might be saved.
Copy !req
302. We will find in Romans 10:9 and 10
Copy !req
303. that if thou shalt
confess with thy mouth
Copy !req
304. the Lord Jesus,
Copy !req
305. and shall believe in thine heart
Copy !req
306. that God hath raised him from the dead,
Copy !req
307. thou shall be saved.
Copy !req
308. For with the heart...
Copy !req
309. My heart's desire in prayer to God...
Copy !req
310. What are you looking for?
Copy !req
311. Looking for a room.
Copy !req
312. No trouble here, you hear?
Copy !req
313. Fifty dollars a month.
Copy !req
314. No TV, no music after 11.
Copy !req
315. And no police.
Copy !req
316. Mister...?
Copy !req
317. Kimble.
Copy !req
318. No police, you hear?
Copy !req
319. I hear.
Copy !req
320. Shall I join you?
Copy !req
321. Oh, it's you.
Copy !req
322. Who were you expecting?
Copy !req
323. Raquel Welch?
Copy !req
324. What brings you here?
Copy !req
325. I thought I'd come and see you.
Copy !req
326. That doesn't happen
too often these days.
Copy !req
327. Half my wardrobe's here.
Copy !req
328. I'm getting very bored with
wearing the other half.
Copy !req
329. Geri, I'm gonna be a while.
Copy !req
330. Why don't you go on and
do what you're gonna do,
Copy !req
331. and I'll see you back at the office?
Copy !req
332. Thank you for calling
Copy !req
333. General Lock Company.
Copy !req
334. Hello, yes.
Copy !req
335. I have some locks
here that need changing.
Copy !req
336. Could you do it for me today, please?
Copy !req
337. That's them, there they are.
Copy !req
338. Let's go.
Copy !req
339. You and you, out.
Copy !req
340. Not you.
Copy !req
341. Do you believe in Jesus?
Copy !req
342. Yes, I do.
Copy !req
343. Well, you're gonna meet him.
Copy !req
344. Mr. Kersey,
do you wanna join the party?
Copy !req
345. No, thanks.
Copy !req
346. Sausalito area of San Francisco
Copy !req
347. killed three people and
wounded over one thousand.
Copy !req
348. Hello?
Copy !req
349. You're in.
Copy !req
350. I've been in all night.
Copy !req
351. I called.
Copy !req
352. I haven't been answering the phone.
Copy !req
353. Those newspaper people
keep calling ever since...
Copy !req
354. Well, I just haven't been answering.
Copy !req
355. Can I cook dinner
for you tomorrow night?
Copy !req
356. Friday night's better.
Copy !req
357. Friday night, then.
Copy !req
358. Okay, night.
Copy !req
359. Reports that two men were shot dead
Copy !req
360. in the now vacant Hollywood
hotel on Hollywood Boulevard.
Copy !req
361. Police believe the two
deaths are drug-related.
Copy !req
362. Names have been withheld
Copy !req
363. pending the notification
of the families.
Copy !req
364. Six, yes, six free films
Copy !req
365. to go with for your camera.
Copy !req
366. It's 9 o'clock here in Los Angeles.
Copy !req
367. The temperature is 72 degrees.
Copy !req
368. We'll go over to Jane
Saunders for the traffic.
Copy !req
369. There's a hold-up
Copy !req
370. on Hollywood Boulevard at Western,
Copy !req
371. where a traffic accident has
tailbacks for half a mile.
Copy !req
372. So drivers, be sure to
avoid Hollywood at Western.
Copy !req
373. That's it, kiddo,
give 'em the local news.
Copy !req
374. Of course, in my case,
Copy !req
375. my car's such a mess anyway,
Copy !req
376. a few more bangs wouldn't
make much difference.
Copy !req
377. Now, here's Geri Nichols with some news
Copy !req
378. of an experiment in Illinois
Copy !req
379. that's taking young
people away from crime.
Copy !req
380. In Illinois state prison...
Copy !req
381. No!
Copy !req
382. Come on!
Copy !req
383. Please help!
Copy !req
384. I will be good.
Copy !req
385. Mary!
Copy !req
386. We're just borrowin'
your mama, motherfucker.
Copy !req
387. Don't hurt Mary.
Copy !req
388. Keep back!
Copy !req
389. No, please, please.
Copy !req
390. Hey, watch out, asshole.
Copy !req
391. Goodbye.
Copy !req
392. Come with me.
Copy !req
393. Hey, over here!
Copy !req
394. Hold it a minute.
Copy !req
395. Let me get this straight.
Copy !req
396. Some guy pops up out of nowhere,
Copy !req
397. he starts shooting,
Copy !req
398. and you and your wife don't
know what he looks like.
Copy !req
399. That guy saved our lives, damn it.
Copy !req
400. Where the hell were you guys?
Copy !req
401. Giving out parking tickets?
Copy !req
402. Hold him.
Copy !req
403. All right, lady.
Copy !req
404. What did he look like?
Copy !req
405. He was...
Copy !req
406. He was...
Copy !req
407. He was a very good citizen,
Copy !req
408. that's what he was.
Copy !req
409. He was a killer.
Copy !req
410. Now, you want to stay here forever?
Copy !req
411. Play it that way.
Copy !req
412. You're vital witnesses.
Copy !req
413. Don't play games with me.
Copy !req
414. You both saw him.
Copy !req
415. Now, I want a description.
Copy !req
416. He's 21.
Copy !req
417. Blonde with a club foot.
Copy !req
418. Funny, from where I was,
he was a large black man
Copy !req
419. with a red beard.
Copy !req
420. Now, you let these guys
get me to the hospital,
Copy !req
421. or I'm gonna give the press
interviews you won't believe.
Copy !req
422. Take him.
Copy !req
423. Close it off upstairs.
Copy !req
424. I said close it off.
Copy !req
425. You know what we've got here,
don't you?
Copy !req
426. A goddamn vigilante.
Copy !req
427. My wife goes to mace class,
Copy !req
428. would you believe that?
Copy !req
429. The police commissioner's
wife at mace class
Copy !req
430. learning to spray attackers.
Copy !req
431. Now you tell me there's
a vigilante out there.
Copy !req
432. My God.
Copy !req
433. The lid's only just kept down as it is.
Copy !req
434. I can just see all kinds
of panicked citizens
Copy !req
435. taking to the streets if this gets out.
Copy !req
436. They'll knock off anyone
Copy !req
437. with long hair or tacky clothes.
Copy !req
438. I think that I can find him.
Copy !req
439. If we even start an investigation,
Copy !req
440. the press will hear of it.
Copy !req
441. I learn half of what
goes on in my own force
Copy !req
442. from the newspapers.
Copy !req
443. Tell me...
Copy !req
444. Wasn't there a vigilante in
Boston about five years ago?
Copy !req
445. New York.
Copy !req
446. New York, right.
Copy !req
447. Get on to them, see how they handled it.
Copy !req
448. It stopped there.
Copy !req
449. Well, what about this report?
Copy !req
450. You've...
Copy !req
451. I know.
Copy !req
452. The Los Angeles police
has asked for advice
Copy !req
453. on the vigilante situation.
Copy !req
454. But there's something
else you should know, sir.
Copy !req
455. Paul Kersey now lives in Los Angeles.
Copy !req
456. Are you suggesting that Kersey's
Copy !req
457. out there killing again?
Copy !req
458. Paul Kersey was an interesting man,
Copy !req
459. so I kept a loose tab on him.
Copy !req
460. He worked in Chicago for a while,
Copy !req
461. where he met an old friend of his
Copy !req
462. who ran a radio station in LA.
Copy !req
463. And he transferred
his business out there.
Copy !req
464. But that doesn't mean that
he's the Los Angeles vigilante.
Copy !req
465. No, sir.
Copy !req
466. But Christ, what if he is?
Copy !req
467. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
468. If he is, and if he's caught,
Copy !req
469. the trail leads straight back to us.
Copy !req
470. We had him and we didn't prosecute.
Copy !req
471. For damn good reason.
Copy !req
472. Street crime was down 50%.
Copy !req
473. Muggers were afraid to
go out on the streets.
Copy !req
474. Never mind that, Commissioner.
Copy !req
475. We know we'd have a martyr on our hands
Copy !req
476. if we brought him to trial,
Copy !req
477. but the fact is, we let him go.
Copy !req
478. If he's caught now,
Copy !req
479. he'll tell the world that we let him go.
Copy !req
480. I'd be disbarred.
Copy !req
481. It'd be the end of your
career, Mr. Commissioner.
Copy !req
482. And you, inspector, would
not collect your pension.
Copy !req
483. And I retire this year.
Copy !req
484. It's quite simple.
Copy !req
485. We have to get him before they get him.
Copy !req
486. We?
Copy !req
487. You.
Copy !req
488. Well, I could go to Los Angeles
Copy !req
489. in answer to their request.
Copy !req
490. And I'll try to find out
Copy !req
491. if Kersey's up to his old tricks again.
Copy !req
492. And if he is, I'll try to stop him.
Copy !req
493. Quietly.
Copy !req
494. Kill him?
Copy !req
495. Hi, Frank. Over here.
Copy !req
496. Mike, good to see you.
Copy !req
497. Frank, welcome to L.A.
Copy !req
498. Thank you.
Copy !req
499. Gesundheit.
Copy !req
500. Thank you.
Copy !req
501. Is this the file?
Copy !req
502. Newspaper clippings and police
photographs on Paul Kersey.
Copy !req
503. Most of them, of course,
Copy !req
504. are about how his daughter
and his housekeeper
Copy !req
505. were killed by muggers.
Copy !req
506. We checked out every
person who suffered a loss
Copy !req
507. through muggings in the last six months,
Copy !req
508. particularly in death.
Copy !req
509. How many people did it give you?
Copy !req
510. Deaths, 96.
Copy !req
511. Seriously injured, 1,500.
Copy !req
512. Rapes, 579.
Copy !req
513. I can go on.
Copy !req
514. You tie down a lot of men that way.
Copy !req
515. What did you do?
Copy !req
516. We tried that route but we gave up.
Copy !req
517. I'm going back to the hotel,
Copy !req
518. I want to lie down.
Copy !req
519. I think I caught a cold on the plane.
Copy !req
520. And the smog doesn't help anyway.
Copy !req
521. Hey, babe.
Copy !req
522. You're not holding out on me, are you?
Copy !req
523. Hey, one cop to another.
Copy !req
524. Would I do a thing like that?
Copy !req
525. It's all right, Miss Nichols.
Copy !req
526. I'm a policeman.
Copy !req
527. How did you get in?
Copy !req
528. It comes with the job.
Copy !req
529. You'd be amazed at the
things they teach us.
Copy !req
530. What's a New York cop doing
breaking into my apartment?
Copy !req
531. It's about your friend,
Mr. Paul Kersey.
Copy !req
532. How do you know him?
Copy !req
533. It comes...
Copy !req
534. With the job.
Copy !req
535. He killed nine people in
New York City four years ago.
Copy !req
536. You're not serious.
Copy !req
537. I'm very serious.
Copy !req
538. What station are you from?
Copy !req
539. West 75th street.
Copy !req
540. It won't help calling anybody.
Copy !req
541. Well, they sent you, didn't they?
Copy !req
542. Well, not exactly.
Copy !req
543. Was Mr. Kersey charged
with killing nine people?
Copy !req
544. He was not.
Copy !req
545. See, the people he killed were muggers.
Copy !req
546. Even though the public
never knew who he was,
Copy !req
547. he became a hero.
Copy !req
548. And there were those that felt
Copy !req
549. we should encourage him to
stop and leave it at that.
Copy !req
550. But now, you see,
Copy !req
551. he's doing it again.
Copy !req
552. Here, in Los Angeles.
Copy !req
553. But there's no one I can
call to verify all this?
Copy !req
554. My chief thinks I'm on vacation.
Copy !req
555. You break in here and tell
me you think Paul's a murderer.
Copy !req
556. What else are you entitled to tell me?
Copy !req
557. We think it would be
better if he stopped.
Copy !req
558. I asked him once,
Copy !req
559. it didn't seem to work.
Copy !req
560. I think maybe he'll listen to you.
Copy !req
561. I hardly ever see him
outside of the radio station.
Copy !req
562. Doesn't it make you wonder
what he may be doing at night?
Copy !req
563. Hey, mister, got a half hour to spare?
Copy !req
564. What's wrong with you?
Haven't you got one?
Copy !req
565. Fuck you.
Copy !req
566. Paul, where have you been?
Copy !req
567. I was just out.
Copy !req
568. Well, out where?
Copy !req
569. I was with a friend.
Copy !req
570. A man.
Copy !req
571. What man?
Copy !req
572. Calm down.
Copy !req
573. Where do you think I've been?
Copy !req
574. Killing muggers.
Copy !req
575. You're crazy.
Copy !req
576. A New York cop broke
into my place tonight.
Copy !req
577. Not that...
Copy !req
578. What the hell's his name, Frank Ochoa?
Copy !req
579. He said he talked to you once.
Copy !req
580. He asked me not to kill muggers.
Copy !req
581. He told me that.
Copy !req
582. Yes, that's true.
Copy !req
583. That you killed muggers?
Copy !req
584. No, that he asked me not to.
Copy !req
585. Why would he ask you not to
Copy !req
586. if you weren't doing
it in the first place?
Copy !req
587. Listen, when a policeman
finds a killer, what does he do?
Copy !req
588. They arrest him.
Copy !req
589. Well, he did seem a bit odd.
Copy !req
590. Not only odd, the guy is crazy.
Copy !req
591. It's that simple.
Copy !req
592. He had a moment in his life
when he was a somebody.
Copy !req
593. He was in charge of the
vigilante killings in New York.
Copy !req
594. He was all over the
newspapers, the television,
Copy !req
595. asked a lot of questions.
Copy !req
596. And the most important
question they asked him was,
Copy !req
597. "Who is the vigilante?"
Copy !req
598. "Have you found the vigilante?"
Copy !req
599. Of course, he hadn't.
Copy !req
600. And me,
I was one on a long list of people
Copy !req
601. who had family killed by the muggers.
Copy !req
602. For all I know, he might have
accused every one of them.
Copy !req
603. He became such a damn
pest that I left New York.
Copy !req
604. But I'll be damned if
I leave Los Angeles.
Copy !req
605. I'm not gonna let him
come between you and me.
Copy !req
606. I thought things had.
Copy !req
607. What?
Copy !req
608. Come between us.
Copy !req
609. Hell no.
Copy !req
610. Stay the night?
Copy !req
611. I thought you'd never ask.
Copy !req
612. Do I get a key again?
Copy !req
613. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
614. Here, you can have it copied.
Copy !req
615. Now, don't lose it,
Copy !req
616. we may not be able
to get back in tonight.
Copy !req
617. Oh, I can't see you tonight.
Copy !req
618. Why not?
Copy !req
619. It's Judy's birthday
Copy !req
620. and I'm staying over with her
in Carmel after the party.
Copy !req
621. Now who's keeping us apart?
Copy !req
622. Hello.
Copy !req
623. Frank, hi.
Copy !req
624. Mike.
Copy !req
625. I hate to ask you this after
you've been so helpful,
Copy !req
626. but could you do
something for me tonight?
Copy !req
627. Yeah, go ahead, what is it?
Copy !req
628. I want you to take my car
Copy !req
629. and park it outside the
front of Paul Kersey's house.
Copy !req
630. Police!
Copy !req
631. Follow the bus.
Copy !req
632. Proclaimed by God
himself in the holy scripture.
Copy !req
633. He's the prince of
the kings of the Earth.
Copy !req
634. One of these days, he'll
be called King of Kings.
Copy !req
635. Yes, heir of the heirs,
Copy !req
636. Prince of Kings is just the beginning
Copy !req
637. of his glory.
Copy !req
638. We must confess in God
that if thou shall confess
Copy !req
639. the Lord Jesus with thy mouth...
Copy !req
640. At the filling station.
Copy !req
641. You run in there with
your goddamn automobile.
Copy !req
642. You run outta gas and go
to the filling station.
Copy !req
643. Amen!
Copy !req
644. You go in there on Sunday morning
Copy !req
645. and fill your car up.
Copy !req
646. Taxi!
Copy !req
647. Come on, will you?
Copy !req
648. Follow that bus.
Copy !req
649. It isn't moving.
Copy !req
650. When it moves, follow it.
Copy !req
651. What do we do now?
Copy !req
652. We wait.
Copy !req
653. Can I see something there?
Copy !req
654. Hey, stop it!
Copy !req
655. Stop it!
Copy !req
656. Just let me check the color.
Copy !req
657. One second.
Copy !req
658. Damn.
Copy !req
659. I really am a nice guy, but
you act like fools around me.
Copy !req
660. Now, that bus there.
Copy !req
661. I hope you got the bread for this.
Copy !req
662. This is police business.
Copy !req
663. I ain't known for my community spirit.
Copy !req
664. Show me some money.
Copy !req
665. Here, start with this.
Copy !req
666. Go ahead, will you!
Copy !req
667. Stop it!
Copy !req
668. Come on, leave me alone.
Copy !req
669. Give me a break, you guys.
Copy !req
670. What's down there?
Copy !req
671. Point Fermin.
Copy !req
672. What's that?
Copy !req
673. It's of those historical monuments.
Copy !req
674. There's nothing
there this time of night.
Copy !req
675. You wait here.
Copy !req
676. You get the other half when I get back.
Copy !req
677. Whatever happens, wait here.
Copy !req
678. If you hear shooting, don't worry.
Copy !req
679. It's just target practice.
Copy !req
680. What's happening, old man?
Copy !req
681. Where you been hiding out?
Copy !req
682. All right.
Copy !req
683. All right, let's see the stuff.
Copy !req
684. Show the man.
Copy !req
685. This is the best.
Copy !req
686. This stuff is sweet like sugar.
Copy !req
687. Watch out!
Copy !req
688. What the fuck is going on?
Copy !req
689. Over there, man!
Copy !req
690. What the fuck is this?
Copy !req
691. Fuck it, man.
Copy !req
692. I'll be damned!
Copy !req
693. You?
Copy !req
694. You stuck your neck out for me?
Copy !req
695. It was you or them.
Copy !req
696. Did you get them all?
Copy !req
697. One of them got away.
Copy !req
698. Get the motherfucker for me.
Copy !req
699. Our Father, who art in Heaven,
Copy !req
700. hallowed be thy name.
Copy !req
701. He's dead.
Copy !req
702. Poor bastard.
Copy !req
703. I knew he was holding out on me.
Copy !req
704. Lieutenant, over here.
Copy !req
705. Listen, I'm at
Point Fermin in San Pedro.
Copy !req
706. We need more photographers down here.
Copy !req
707. Who blew away the cop?
Copy !req
708. I'm bleeding, man.
Copy !req
709. Who did it?
Copy !req
710. No sign of the cab that called in.
Copy !req
711. Cab service said he was just passing by,
Copy !req
712. he didn't see anything.
Copy !req
713. They just want to stay out of trouble.
Copy !req
714. Give us a hand.
Copy !req
715. Listen, you're gonna die right here
Copy !req
716. if I don't hear who killed that cop.
Copy !req
717. Nirvana.
Copy !req
718. He got away.
Copy !req
719. Who's that?
Copy !req
720. Nirvana!
Copy !req
721. Nirvana.
Copy !req
722. Charles Wilson.
Copy !req
723. Oh, fuck!
Copy !req
724. Put out a tracer on Nirvana,
Copy !req
725. also known as Charles Wilson,
for murder.
Copy !req
726. No hurry.
Copy !req
727. How can an entrance
door cost $500,000?
Copy !req
728. Your wife is a very
expensive designer.
Copy !req
729. She wants Italian marble,
Mexican mosaic,
Copy !req
730. sculpted angels blowing horns
Copy !req
731. on either side of the doorway.
Copy !req
732. It costs a lot of money.
Copy !req
733. But here, we've drawn it up in concrete.
Copy !req
734. Even has the angels on
either side of the door.
Copy !req
735. It costs a hell of a lot less.
Copy !req
736. Why don't you ask your wife about it?
Copy !req
737. She'll hate it.
Copy !req
738. Ask her anyhow.
Copy !req
739. Let me know one way or
the other, will you?
Copy !req
740. Do you know what time
they're gonna make their move?
Copy !req
741. Well thanks, Sergeant.
Copy !req
742. Will you please keep
those calls coming in?
Copy !req
743. All right.
Copy !req
744. Hi Fred.
Copy !req
745. What's happening?
Copy !req
746. There was a big shootout last night
Copy !req
747. at Point Fermin down at San Pedro.
Copy !req
748. There were five people killed,
including a New York cop.
Copy !req
749. Our man at the department says
Copy !req
750. that the Tac Squad's been called in.
Copy !req
751. I want you glued to those
police monitors. Glued.
Copy !req
752. A man called Wilson,
Copy !req
753. he got away from the
shoot out last night.
Copy !req
754. The word is they may move
to take him this afternoon.
Copy !req
755. And if they do, I want someone there.
Copy !req
756. We could use a good exclusive.
Copy !req
757. Say, Fred, where do
you get these monitors?
Copy !req
758. We adapt them ourselves.
Copy !req
759. Lots of people do.
Copy !req
760. Happen to have a
spare one lying around?
Copy !req
761. There was one that we
were gonna get rid of.
Copy !req
762. Here, we've got better ones now,
Copy !req
763. but this one still works pretty well.
Copy !req
764. A gift from KABC radio.
Copy !req
765. Now, the Tac Squad,
Copy !req
766. they operate on this band
Copy !req
767. and they identify with 3A-90.
Copy !req
768. And the truth is,
Copy !req
769. their programs are a lot
more interesting than ours.
Copy !req
770. Thanks, Fred.
Copy !req
771. Yankee Charlie
available and will handle.
Copy !req
772. Charlie West
Copy !req
773. 3A68, subject's residence
Copy !req
774. located as 914 Filmore.
Copy !req
775. Units moving into position.
Copy !req
776. 5H-13, this is 3A-90.
Copy !req
777. We could use a definite 10-20.
Copy !req
778. Affirmative, 914 Philmore.
Copy !req
779. Stay clear.
Copy !req
780. No units to move
in 'til I give the word.
Copy !req
781. Squad three moving into position,
over.
Copy !req
782. 5H-13, this is 3A-90.
Copy !req
783. We have eyeballed your 10-30, over.
Copy !req
784. Has he spotted you?
Copy !req
785. Negative.
Copy !req
786. We're across the street from the 10-20.
Copy !req
787. Can take him now.
Copy !req
788. Hold it, he's mine.
Copy !req
789. Standing by.
Copy !req
790. 3A-90, this is 5C-61.
Copy !req
791. Subject just entered 10-20 the two exit.
Copy !req
792. 3A-46, subject lighting object,
Copy !req
793. appears to be narcotics.
Copy !req
794. Permission to move in.
Copy !req
795. Negative.
Copy !req
796. I don't want those women involved.
Copy !req
797. Wait 'til he comes out.
Copy !req
798. George, you got a cigarette?
Copy !req
799. Section 804, await instructions.
Copy !req
800. This is 3A-90.
Copy !req
801. Someone just jumped
onto the roof of 914.
Copy !req
802. Confirm it was one of us, over.
Copy !req
803. How the hell do I know who it is?
Copy !req
804. Hold your positions.
Copy !req
805. Don't give me that
shit, you fucking bitch.
Copy !req
806. Fuck off, you asshole.
Copy !req
807. I'm getting out.
Copy !req
808. Give me that stuff, you cunt!
Copy !req
809. Watch out, he's got a knife.
Copy !req
810. Cool it, the streets are too crowded.
Copy !req
811. Hold your fire.
Copy !req
812. Hold your fire!
Copy !req
813. Okay, fellas, let's get him.
Copy !req
814. Come on, hold him down.
Copy !req
815. Hi.
Copy !req
816. Hi.
Copy !req
817. How was the birthday party?
Copy !req
818. We're getting a bit old for birthdays.
Copy !req
819. Have you seen this?
Copy !req
820. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
821. I saw it.
Copy !req
822. Do you know anything about it?
Copy !req
823. No more than you do.
Copy !req
824. I understand your station, KABC,
Copy !req
825. got an exclusive this afternoon
Copy !req
826. when they caught the guy who killed him.
Copy !req
827. I heard it in the car.
Copy !req
828. Have you eaten?
Copy !req
829. No, I drove straight
here when I heard the news.
Copy !req
830. Let's go to a nice place tonight.
Copy !req
831. Okay,
but I'd like to freshen up first.
Copy !req
832. How long will it take
you? About an hour?
Copy !req
833. About that.
Copy !req
834. I'll pick you up in an hour.
Copy !req
835. You know, I rather liked him.
Copy !req
836. He was nutty, just like I told you.
Copy !req
837. Well, at least they caught
the man that killed him.
Copy !req
838. See you later.
Copy !req
839. Prosecution has presented
only circumstantial evidence
Copy !req
840. that Charles Wilson was the person
Copy !req
841. that shot and killed
Detective Frank Ochoa
Copy !req
842. on the night of May 14th.
Copy !req
843. It is proven that the defendant
Copy !req
844. attacked several police
officers on May 15th,
Copy !req
845. but psychiatric testimony
Copy !req
846. indicates that he was
under the influence of PCP,
Copy !req
847. a mind-altering drug.
Copy !req
848. Charles I. Wilson was remanded
Copy !req
849. to the McLarren state hospital
Copy !req
850. until such time as the
medical examining board
Copy !req
851. finds him fit to resume
his place in society.
Copy !req
852. And I suppose this is the Dr. Clark
Copy !req
853. that's gonna turn him
into a little angel, huh?
Copy !req
854. Would a normal prison do any better?
Copy !req
855. It would keep him from killing
somebody else for a while.
Copy !req
856. Is this all the stuff that's
going into your article?
Copy !req
857. When's it come out?
Copy !req
858. I've got a couple more
sessions at the hospital.
Copy !req
859. It's due to go in the July issue.
Copy !req
860. Do you really believe all this?
Copy !req
861. Yes, I do.
Copy !req
862. And you might, too, if you heard Clark.
Copy !req
863. You think he could swing me over?
Copy !req
864. Well, if you met him,
you might learn something.
Copy !req
865. Maybe you're right.
Copy !req
866. Maybe you're right.
Copy !req
867. I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting.
Copy !req
868. Dr. Clark, this is Mr. Kersey.
Copy !req
869. I'm so glad you wanted to come along.
Copy !req
870. The more people that understand
our work, the better.
Copy !req
871. I appreciate your letting me come.
Copy !req
872. Say, doctor.
Copy !req
873. Where is the men's room?
Copy !req
874. Oh, let me show you.
Copy !req
875. You go straight down the
hall, around the corner,
Copy !req
876. and second on your left.
Copy !req
877. Thank you.
Copy !req
878. The right.
Copy !req
879. Would Dr. Ferguson
Copy !req
880. report to the Intensive Care Unit?
Copy !req
881. Dr. Al Ferguson to Intensive Care.
Copy !req
882. You're late.
Copy !req
883. Look, they gave me the cover.
Copy !req
884. How about that.
Copy !req
885. "Next month, Geri Nichols
on crime and punishment
Copy !req
886. in Los Angeles."
Copy !req
887. That's terrific.
Copy !req
888. Do you think Elliott
will give me a raise?
Copy !req
889. He might give you a reduction
Copy !req
890. because of all the hours
you've spent at the hospital.
Copy !req
891. Well, you've spent enough time there.
Copy !req
892. You must know the place
nearly as well as I do.
Copy !req
893. Yeah, but I'm still not converted.
Copy !req
894. All those theories are
just that. Theories.
Copy !req
895. Dom Perignon?
Copy !req
896. Enjoy your lunch.
Copy !req
897. Can't be my birthday,
that was last month.
Copy !req
898. And you forgot.
Copy !req
899. But that's all right.
Copy !req
900. Will you marry me?
Copy !req
901. Are you serious?
Copy !req
902. Yes, I'm serious.
Copy !req
903. You're not sick?
Copy !req
904. Might be after I see the check,
Copy !req
905. but I feel fine now.
Copy !req
906. Easy, easy.
Copy !req
907. This stuff costs $3.00 a drop.
Copy !req
908. That was a $9.00 kiss.
Copy !req
909. I accept.
Copy !req
910. That'll teach you.
Copy !req
911. This is the way it'll go.
Copy !req
912. Next Wednesday, we'll catch
the midnight flight to Acapulco
Copy !req
913. and get married in Mexico.
Copy !req
914. And I thought you weren't a romantic.
Copy !req
915. After the program, you drive
to my place, then off we go.
Copy !req
916. Let's get smashed.
Copy !req
917. Then I want it in writing.
Copy !req
918. I know it's ridiculous.
Copy !req
919. Excuse me?
Copy !req
920. I'm looking for a patient,
Charles Wilson.
Copy !req
921. I believe he's in C block.
Copy !req
922. Is that right?
Copy !req
923. Yeah, C block, section 6, room 30.
Copy !req
924. It's that way.
Copy !req
925. Thank you.
Copy !req
926. Report to the emergency room.
Copy !req
927. I'm Dr. Carter,
Copy !req
928. court-appointed therapist
for Charles Wilson.
Copy !req
929. They don't have your name down here.
Copy !req
930. My appointment's for 9 o'clock.
Copy !req
931. They usually give me a list
Copy !req
932. with doctors coming through.
Copy !req
933. I was told a Mr. Kay would be on duty.
Copy !req
934. Oh, that's me,
Copy !req
935. but I can't let you through unless...
Copy !req
936. Well, Mr. Kay, I'm already late.
Copy !req
937. I'd like to finish up and
get back home to dinner.
Copy !req
938. Now, if you don't mind,
Copy !req
939. would you please show me to room 30?
Copy !req
940. Hi, Eileen.
Copy !req
941. Cook it all by yourself, did you?
Copy !req
942. That's right.
Copy !req
943. If you don't want to stay for dinner,
Copy !req
944. just punch 3600 to get out.
Copy !req
945. 3600, okay.
Copy !req
946. I've got to take the doctor down here.
Copy !req
947. Enjoy the food, then.
Copy !req
948. Will Dr. David Middlemass
Copy !req
949. please go to Ward 16?
Copy !req
950. Dr. Middlemass to Ward 16.
Copy !req
951. Score will remain,
Copy !req
952. as the call is offside
against the Rough Riders.
Copy !req
953. The Tigers...
Copy !req
954. Do you want to use
the interview room here,
Copy !req
955. or see him in the cell?
Copy !req
956. This will do.
Copy !req
957. What's all that back there?
Copy !req
958. That's the electroshock room.
Copy !req
959. Since you fellas took over,
Copy !req
960. they don't use it very much.
Copy !req
961. It's all done with kindness now.
Copy !req
962. Isn't that right, doctor?
Copy !req
963. Therapy.
Copy !req
964. Call it what you like.
Copy !req
965. Okay, Wilson.
Copy !req
966. You got a visitor.
Copy !req
967. Let's go.
Copy !req
968. You know the routine.
Copy !req
969. Do you want me to stay?
Copy !req
970. It's not necessary.
Copy !req
971. If you need me, just pull this.
Copy !req
972. I'll get my dinner.
Copy !req
973. I said to my wife,
"Where do you want to go
Copy !req
974. for your anniversary?"
Copy !req
975. She said, "I want to go somewhere
Copy !req
976. I've never been before."
Copy !req
977. I said, "Try the kitchen."
Copy !req
978. He raped and killed my daughter.
Copy !req
979. I read about it.
Copy !req
980. I'll give you three minutes
'til I ring the alarm.
Copy !req
981. You're wasting time.
Copy !req
982. To open the door, you punch out —
Copy !req
983. 3600?
Copy !req
984. That's right.
Copy !req
985. Hey man, what's wrong with you?
Copy !req
986. You got a problem or somethin'?
Copy !req
987. What's your fucking problem, man?
Copy !req
988. Hey, man, watch this car, will you?
Copy !req
989. Paul?
Copy !req
990. Okay, you got the city wide...
Copy !req
991. 13-27.
Copy !req
992. That ends our presentation
Copy !req
993. of Music on the Sweet Side for now.
Copy !req
994. But I'll be back at
