1. And keep your retirement
Copy !req
2. And your so-called
social security
Copy !req
3. Big city, turn me loose
and set me free...
Copy !req
4. I'm Jerry Lundegaard.
Copy !req
5. You're Jerry Lundegaard?
Copy !req
6. Yeah.
Copy !req
7. Shep Proudfoot said...
Copy !req
8. Shep said you'd be here at 7:30.
What gives, man?
Copy !req
9. Shep said 8:30.
Copy !req
10. We've been
sitting here an hour.
Copy !req
11. He's peed
three times already.
Copy !req
12. I'm sure sorry.
Shep told me 8:30.
Copy !req
13. It was a mix-up,
I guess.
Copy !req
14. You got the car?
Copy !req
15. Yeah. You bet.
Copy !req
16. It's out in the lot there,
brand-new, burnt umber Cierra.
Copy !req
17. Yeah, okay.
Well, sit down, then.
Copy !req
18. I'm Carl Showalter.
Copy !req
19. This is my associate,
Gaear Grimsrud.
Copy !req
20. Yeah. How you doing?
Copy !req
21. So, we all set
on this thing, then?
Copy !req
22. Sure, Jerry. We're all set.
Why wouldn't we be?
Copy !req
23. Yeah, no,
I'm sure you are.
Copy !req
24. Shep vouched
for you and all.
Copy !req
25. I got every confidence
here in you fellas.
Copy !req
26. I guess that's it, then.
Copy !req
27. Here are the keys.
Copy !req
28. No,
that's not it, Jerry.
Copy !req
29. Huh?
Copy !req
30. The new vehicle
plus $40,000.
Copy !req
31. Yeah, but the deal
was the car first,
Copy !req
32. then the 40,000, like as
if it was the ransom.
Copy !req
33. I thought Shep told you.
Copy !req
34. Shep didn't
tell us much, Jerry.
Copy !req
35. Well, okay...
Copy !req
36. Except that you were
gonna be here at 7:30.
Copy !req
37. Yeah, well,
that was a mix-up, then.
Copy !req
38. Yeah, you already
said that.
Copy !req
39. Yeah, but it's not a whole
pay-in-advance deal.
Copy !req
40. See, I give you a brand-new
vehicle in advance, and then...
Copy !req
41. I'm not gonna
debate you, Jerry.
Copy !req
42. Okay.
Copy !req
43. I'm not gonna sit here
and debate.
Copy !req
44. I will say
this, though.
Copy !req
45. What Shep told us didn't
make a whole lot of sense.
Copy !req
46. Oh, no. It's real sound.
It's all worked out.
Copy !req
47. You want your own
wife kidnapped.
Copy !req
48. Yeah.
Copy !req
49. You...
Copy !req
50. My point is,
Copy !req
51. you pay the ransom,
what, 80,000 bucks?
Copy !req
52. I mean, you give us half the
ransom, 40,000, you keep half.
Copy !req
53. It's like robbing
Peter to pay Paul.
Copy !req
54. It doesn't
make any sense.
Copy !req
55. Okay, see, it's not
me paying the ransom.
Copy !req
56. The thing is,
my wife, she's wealthy.
Copy !req
57. Her dad,
he's real well-off.
Copy !req
58. Now, I'm in a bit
of trouble.
Copy !req
59. What kind of
trouble you in, Jerry?
Copy !req
60. Well, that's...
I'm not gonna get into...
Copy !req
61. See, I just need the money.
Copy !req
62. Now, her dad,
he's real well-off.
Copy !req
63. So, why don't you just
ask him for the money?
Copy !req
64. Or your fucking wife,
you know?
Copy !req
65. Or your
fucking wife, Jerry?
Copy !req
66. Well...
Copy !req
67. It's all part of this...
Copy !req
68. They don't know
I need it, see?
Copy !req
69. Okay, so there's that. And even
if they did, I wouldn't get it,
Copy !req
70. so there's that
on top, then.
Copy !req
71. See, these are
personal matters.
Copy !req
72. Personal matters?
Copy !req
73. Yeah, personal matters
that needn't...
Copy !req
74. Okay, Jerry.
Copy !req
75. You're tasking us to perform
this mission, but you won't...
Copy !req
76. You won't...
Copy !req
77. Fuck it. Let's take a
look at that Cierra.
Copy !req
78. Hon?
Copy !req
79. Hi, hon!
Welcome back!
Copy !req
80. How was Fargo?
Copy !req
81. Yeah, real good.
Copy !req
82. Dad's here.
Copy !req
83. leads the Badgers in
goal production with five this year.
Copy !req
84. How you doing, Wade?
Copy !req
85. Yeah, pretty good.
Copy !req
86. What you
watching there?
Copy !req
87. Gophers.
Copy !req
88. Who they playing?
Copy !req
89. Ooh!
Copy !req
90. Is he staying
for supper, then?
Copy !req
91. Yeah. I think so.
Copy !req
92. Dad?
What?
Copy !req
93. Are you staying
for supper?
Copy !req
94. Yeah.
Copy !req
95. May I be
excused?
Copy !req
96. You done there?
Copy !req
97. Uh-huh.
I'm going out.
Copy !req
98. Where are you going?
Just out.
Copy !req
99. Just McDonald's.
Copy !req
100. Back at 9:30.
Okay.
Copy !req
101. He just ate.
He didn't finish.
Copy !req
102. Going to McDonald's
instead of finishing here.
Copy !req
103. He sees his friends there.
It's okay.
Copy !req
104. It's okay, McDonald's?
Copy !req
105. What do you think
they do there?
Copy !req
106. They don't drink milk
shakes, I assure you.
Copy !req
107. It's okay, Dad.
Copy !req
108. Wade, have you had
a chance to think about
Copy !req
109. that deal I was
talking about,
Copy !req
110. those 40 acres there,
in Wayzata?
Copy !req
111. You told me about it.
Copy !req
112. Yeah, you said you'd
have to think about it.
Copy !req
113. I understand.
It's a lot of money.
Copy !req
114. It's a heck of a lot. What did you
say you were gonna put there?
Copy !req
115. A lot. It's a...
Copy !req
116. I know it's a lot.
Copy !req
117. I mean a parking lot.
Copy !req
118. Well, 750,000 is a lot.
Copy !req
119. Yeah, well,
it's a chunk, but...
Copy !req
120. I had a couple lots, late 50s.
Lost a lot of money.
Copy !req
121. A lot of money.
Yeah, but the difference...
Copy !req
122. I thought you were gonna
show it to Stan Grossman.
Copy !req
123. He passes on this stuff before
it gets kicked up to me.
Copy !req
124. Well, Stan'll say, "No dice."
That's why you pay him.
Copy !req
125. I'm asking you here, Wade.
Copy !req
126. This could work out real good
for me and Jean and Scotty.
Copy !req
127. Jean and Scotty
never have to worry.
Copy !req
128. Where is Pancakes House?
Copy !req
129. What?
Copy !req
130. We stop at Pancakes House.
Copy !req
131. What are you, nuts? We had
pancakes for breakfast.
Copy !req
132. Gotta go to a place
where I can get a shot
Copy !req
133. and a beer
and a steak, maybe.
Copy !req
134. Not more fucking pancakes.
Come on.
Copy !req
135. Oh, come on, man.
Copy !req
136. Okay. Here's an idea.
Copy !req
137. We can stop
outside of Brainerd.
Copy !req
138. I know a place there where we can get laid.
What do you think?
Copy !req
139. I'm fucking
hungry now, you know.
Copy !req
140. Yeah, yeah, Jesus. I'm saying
we can stop, get pancakes,
Copy !req
141. and then we'll
get laid, all right?
Copy !req
142. Lou Diamond, line one.
Copy !req
143. We sat
right here in this room
Copy !req
144. and went over
this and over this.
Copy !req
145. Yeah, but that TruCoat...
Copy !req
146. I sat right here and said I
didn't want any TruCoat.
Copy !req
147. Yeah, but I'm saying
that TruCoat.
Copy !req
148. You don't get it,
you get oxidation problems.
Copy !req
149. It'll cost you a heck of
a lot more than $500.
Copy !req
150. You're sitting there.
Copy !req
151. You're talking
in circles.
Copy !req
152. You're talking like we
didn't go over this already.
Copy !req
153. Yeah, but this TruCoat...
Copy !req
154. We had a deal
here for 19,500.
Copy !req
155. You sat there and darned
if you didn't tell me
Copy !req
156. you'd get me this car,
these options,
Copy !req
157. without the sealant,
for 19,500.
Copy !req
158. All right,
I'm not saying I didn't.
Copy !req
159. You called me
20 minutes ago and said
Copy !req
160. you had it ready
to make delivery.
Copy !req
161. You says, "Come on
down and get it."
Copy !req
162. And here you are, and you're wasting
my time and my wife's time,
Copy !req
163. and I'm paying 19,500
for this vehicle here.
Copy !req
164. All right.
Copy !req
165. I'll talk to my boss.
Copy !req
166. See, they install that
TruCoat at the factory.
Copy !req
167. There's nothing we can do,
but I'll talk to my boss.
Copy !req
168. These guys here.
These guys.
Copy !req
169. It's always the same.
It's always more.
Copy !req
170. You going to
the Gophers on Sunday?
Copy !req
171. Oh, you betcha.
Copy !req
172. You wouldn't have
an extra ticket?
Copy !req
173. You kidding?
Copy !req
174. Well,
Copy !req
175. he never
done this before,
Copy !req
176. but seeing as it's special
circumstances and all,
Copy !req
177. he says I can knock
$100 off that TruCoat.
Copy !req
178. 100?
Copy !req
179. You lied to me,
Mr. Lundegaard.
Copy !req
180. You're a bald-faced liar.
Copy !req
181. Bucky, please.
Copy !req
182. A fucking liar.
Copy !req
183. Bucky, please.
Copy !req
184. Where's my
goddamn checkbook?
Copy !req
185. Let's get this
over with.
Copy !req
186. Where is it?
Copy !req
187. From Hollywood,
The Tonight Show, starring...
Copy !req
188. I am talking
about your potential.
Copy !req
189. Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
190. You're not a C student.
Copy !req
191. Yeah.
Copy !req
192. Yet you're getting
C grades.
Copy !req
193. It's that disparity there that
concerns your dad and me.
Copy !req
194. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
195. You know
what a disparity is?
Copy !req
196. Yeah!
Copy !req
197. Okay! Well,
that's why we...
Copy !req
198. We don't want you
going out for hockey.
Copy !req
199. Oh, man!
Copy !req
200. Come on. What's the big deal?
It's just an hour...
Copy !req
201. Hold on.
Copy !req
202. What's the big deal?
Copy !req
203. Hello?
Copy !req
204. Yeah, hiya, hon.
Oh, hi, Dad.
Copy !req
205. Is Jerry around?
Copy !req
206. Yeah. Hon!
Yeah, he's here.
Copy !req
207. Yeah, I'll catch him
for you.
Copy !req
208. Hon!
Yeah?
Copy !req
209. It's Dad.
Okay.
Copy !req
210. Look, Dad,
there's no fucking way...
Copy !req
211. Scotty!
Copy !req
212. Hey, let's watch
that language there.
Copy !req
213. How you doing there, Wade?
Copy !req
214. What's going on there?
Copy !req
215. Nothing, Wade.
How you doing there?
Copy !req
216. Stan Grossman
looked at your proposal.
Copy !req
217. He says
it's pretty sweet.
Copy !req
218. No kidding?
Copy !req
219. Might be interested.
Copy !req
220. No kidding? I'd need the
cash pretty quick there,
Copy !req
221. in order to
close the deal.
Copy !req
222. Come by at 2:30.
We'll talk about it.
Copy !req
223. If your numbers are right,
Stan says it's pretty sweet.
Copy !req
224. Stan, you know, Grossman.
Yeah.
Copy !req
225. 2130.
Copy !req
226. Yeah. Okay.
Copy !req
227. Say, Shep,
how you doing there?
Copy !req
228. Say, you know
those two fellas
Copy !req
229. you put me in touch
with up there in Fargo?
Copy !req
230. I put you in
touch with Grimsrud.
Copy !req
231. Yeah, well, he had
a buddy there.
Copy !req
232. He...
Then I don't vouch for him.
Copy !req
233. Well, that's okay.
Copy !req
234. I vouch for Grimsrud.
Who's his buddy?
Copy !req
235. Carl something.
Copy !req
236. Never heard of him.
Don't vouch for him.
Copy !req
237. Well, that's okay. He's a buddy
of the guy you vouched for,
Copy !req
238. so I'm not worried.
I just...
Copy !req
239. I was wondering, see, I got
to get in touch with him.
Copy !req
240. See, this deal I needed him
for, I may not need it anymore.
Copy !req
241. Something's happening, see.
Call him up.
Copy !req
242. Yeah, well, see, I did that, and
I haven't been able to get him,
Copy !req
243. so I thought maybe you'd know an
alternate number, or what have you.
Copy !req
244. Nope.
Copy !req
245. Okay. Well...
Copy !req
246. Real good, then.
Copy !req
247. Can you crack a fucking
window open, man?
Copy !req
248. You know, it's proven
that secondhand smoke is...
Copy !req
249. You know, a cancer agent.
Copy !req
250. Hey, look at that.
Twin Cities.
Copy !req
251. That's the IDS Building,
the big glass one.
Copy !req
252. Tallest skyscraper in the Midwest
after the Sears in Chicago,
Copy !req
253. or John Hancock building,
whatever.
Copy !req
254. You ever been
to Minneapolis?
Copy !req
255. No.
Copy !req
256. Would it kill you
to say something?
Copy !req
257. I did.
Copy !req
258. "No." That's the first thing you've
said in the last four hours.
Copy !req
259. That's a...
Copy !req
260. That's a fountain
of conversation, man.
Copy !req
261. That's a geyser.
Copy !req
262. I mean, whoa, daddy.
Stand back, man.
Copy !req
263. Shit.
Copy !req
264. I'm sitting here driving.
Copy !req
265. I'm doing
all the driving, man,
Copy !req
266. whole fucking way
from Brainerd, driving.
Copy !req
267. Just trying to chat.
Copy !req
268. You know,
keep our spirits up,
Copy !req
269. fight the boredom
of the road,
Copy !req
270. and you can't say one fucking thing
just in the way of conversation?
Copy !req
271. Oh, fuck it. I don't
have to talk either, man.
Copy !req
272. See how you like it.
Copy !req
273. Just total fucking silence.
Copy !req
274. Two could play at
that game, smart guy.
Copy !req
275. We'll just see
how you like it.
Copy !req
276. Total silence.
Copy !req
277. Mr. Lundegaard, this is
Reilly Diefenbach from GMAC.
Copy !req
278. How are you this morning?
Copy !req
279. Real good.
How you doing?
Copy !req
280. Pretty good,
Mr. Lundegaard.
Copy !req
281. You're damn hard
to get on the phone.
Copy !req
282. It's pretty darn busy here, but
that's the way we like it.
Copy !req
283. Well, that's for sure.
Copy !req
284. Now, I just need
on these last,
Copy !req
285. these financing documents
that you sent us,
Copy !req
286. I can't read the serial
numbers of the vehicles.
Copy !req
287. Yeah, but I already
got the...
Copy !req
288. It's okay.
The loans are in place.
Copy !req
289. I already got the...
What? The...
Copy !req
290. Yeah, the 320,000.
Copy !req
291. You got the money
last month.
Copy !req
292. Yeah, so we're all
set, then.
Copy !req
293. Yeah, but the vehicles
that you're borrowing on,
Copy !req
294. I just can't read the serial
numbers on your application.
Copy !req
295. Maybe if you
could just read. ..
Copy !req
296. Yeah, but the deal's
already done.
Copy !req
297. I already got the money.
Copy !req
298. Yes, but if we have
an audit here,
Copy !req
299. I just have to know
that these vehicles
Copy !req
300. you're financing
with this money,
Copy !req
301. that they really exist.
Copy !req
302. Yeah, well,
they exist, all right.
Copy !req
303. I'm sure they do,
Copy !req
304. but I can't read the serial numbers
here, so if you could read me...
Copy !req
305. Yeah, but... See...
Copy !req
306. I don't have
them in front of me.
Copy !req
307. Why don't I just
fax you over a copy?
Copy !req
308. No, well, no,
fax is no good.
Copy !req
309. That's what I have, and I
can't read the darn thing.
Copy !req
310. Yeah, okay. I'll have my girl
send you a copy, then.
Copy !req
311. Okay, because if I can't correlate
this note with the specific vehicles,
Copy !req
312. then I got to
call back that money.
Copy !req
313. Yeah, how much
money was that?
Copy !req
314. 320,000. I got to
correlate that money
Copy !req
315. with the cars
it's being lent on.
Copy !req
316. Yeah. Okay, no problem. I'll
just fax that right over.
Copy !req
317. No,no,no. Fax...
Copy !req
318. I mean, send it over. I'll shoot
it right over to you, then.
Copy !req
319. Okay, okay. Fine.
Copy !req
320. Okay. Real good, then.
Copy !req
321. We're back with Katie Carlson.
Hi.
Copy !req
322. Now, before
we get going here,
Copy !req
323. we just want to remind all
of our viewers at home
Copy !req
324. that this March, for the
second year in a row,
Copy !req
325. Katie and I, along
with Twin City Travel,
Copy !req
326. will be leading a two-week
riverboat trip down the Nile.
Copy !req
327. It's a terrific time. I
know you've heard about it.
Copy !req
328. We want all of you
to come with,
Copy !req
329. and that's the truth.
Copy !req
330. Okay, now, for those of
you that just joined us,
Copy !req
331. Katie here, this morning,
is going to show us
Copy !req
332. how to make Holidazzle
eggs ourselves, at home.
Copy !req
333. Now, Katie, I gotta admit...
What?
Copy !req
334. I was a little bit surprised
when I first picked this up.
Copy !req
335. Right.
Copy !req
336. This is an empty egg.
Copy !req
337. That's right, Dale.
Copy !req
338. Well, how do you
get the egg...
Copy !req
339. There was an egg in here, right?
Yeah.
Copy !req
340. Okay, well, I don't... How do you...
I mean, you don't have
Copy !req
341. an empty chicken somewhere
that lays empty eggs?
Copy !req
342. No, no.
Copy !req
343. I guarantee, this was
an honest-to-goodness...
Copy !req
344. Unguent
Copy !req
345. What?
Copy !req
346. I need unguent.
Copy !req
347. No.
Copy !req
348. No...
Copy !req
349. You want to do it?
Copy !req
350. Push.
Copy !req
351. How are you, Stan?
How you doing, Wade?
Copy !req
352. Good to see you
again, Jerry.
Copy !req
353. If these numbers are right,
this looks pretty sweet.
Copy !req
354. Those numbers
are right, all right.
Copy !req
355. Believe me.
Copy !req
356. This is doable.
Copy !req
357. Congratulations, Jer.
Copy !req
358. Yeah, thanks, Stan.
Well, it's a pretty...
Copy !req
359. What kind of finder's fee
were you looking for?
Copy !req
360. Huh?
Copy !req
361. The financials
are pretty thorough,
Copy !req
362. so the only thing
we don't know is your fee.
Copy !req
363. My fee?
Copy !req
364. Wade, what the heck
are you talking about?
Copy !req
365. Stan and I are okay.
Copy !req
366. Yeah.
We're good to load in.
Copy !req
367. Yeah.
Copy !req
368. But we never talked about your
fee for bringing it to us.
Copy !req
369. No, but, Wade, see, I was
bringing you this deal
Copy !req
370. for you to loan me
the money to put in.
Copy !req
371. It's my deal here, see.
Copy !req
372. Jerry, we thought you were
bringing us an investment.
Copy !req
373. Yeah. Right.
Copy !req
374. You're saying...
Copy !req
375. What are you saying?
Copy !req
376. You're saying
we put in all the money,
Copy !req
377. and you collect
when it pays off.
Copy !req
378. No, no. See... But I'd...
Copy !req
379. I'd pay you back the
principal and interest.
Copy !req
380. Heck, I'd go
one over prime?
Copy !req
381. We're not a bank, Jerry.
Copy !req
382. If I wanted bank
interest on 750,000,
Copy !req
383. I'd go to Midwest Federal,
talk to old Bill Diehl.
Copy !req
384. He's at North Star.
He's at...
Copy !req
385. No,no. See,L“
Copy !req
386. I don't need a finder's fee.
I need...
Copy !req
387. Finder's fee is,
what, 10%?
Copy !req
388. Heck, that's not
gonna do it for me.
Copy !req
389. I need the principal.
Copy !req
390. Well, Jerry, we're not gonna
just give you $750,000.
Copy !req
391. What the heck
were you thinking?
Copy !req
392. If I'm only
getting bank interest,
Copy !req
393. I want complete security.
Heck, FDIC.
Copy !req
394. I don't see nothing
like that here.
Copy !req
395. Yeah, but I...
Copy !req
396. Okay. I...
Copy !req
397. I guarantee you
your money back.
Copy !req
398. I'm not talking about
your damn word, Jerry.
Copy !req
399. Jeez!
What the heck are you...
Copy !req
400. We're not a bank, Jerry.
Copy !req
401. Well, look. I don't want to
out you out of the loop,
Copy !req
402. but this here's
a good deal.
Copy !req
403. I assume,
if you're not interested,
Copy !req
404. you won't mind if we move
on it independently.
Copy !req
405. Damn it!
Copy !req
406. Hon?
Copy !req
407. I got the groceries!
Copy !req
408. Yeah, Wade, hi.
It's Jerry. I...
Copy !req
409. Wade, it's Jerry. I don't
know what to do. It's Jean.
Copy !req
410. I don't know what to do.
It's my wife.
Copy !req
411. I don't know what to do.
It's Jean.
Copy !req
412. Yeah, Wade, I...
It's Jerry. I...
Copy !req
413. Wade, it's Jerry.
I... We gotta talk.
Copy !req
414. It's something...
Jeez. It's terrible.
Copy !req
415. Yeah, Wade Gustafson, please.
Copy !req
416. Shut the fuck up,
Copy !req
417. or I'll throw you back
into the trunk, you know.
Copy !req
418. Jesus, that's more than
I've heard you say all week.
Copy !req
419. Shit.
Copy !req
420. Oh, the tags.
Copy !req
421. All right,
it's just the tags.
Copy !req
422. I never put
my tags on the car.
Copy !req
423. All right, don't worry.
I'll take care of this.
Copy !req
424. All right, just keep it
still back there, lady,
Copy !req
425. or else we're gonna have to,
you know, to shoot you.
Copy !req
426. Hey, I'll take care of this.
Copy !req
427. How can I help you, Officer?
Copy !req
428. This is a new car,
then, sir?
Copy !req
429. It certainly is, Officer.
Still got that smell.
Copy !req
430. You're required to
display temporary tags,
Copy !req
431. either in the plate area or taped
to the inside of the back window.
Copy !req
432. Certainly.
Copy !req
433. Can I see your license
and registration, please?
Copy !req
434. Certainly.
Copy !req
435. Yeah, I was gonna tape up those...
The tag.
Copy !req
436. You know, to be in full
compliance, but it must have...
Copy !req
437. It must have
slipped my mind.
Copy !req
438. So maybe the best
thing to do would be
Copy !req
439. to take care of that
right here in Brainerd.
Copy !req
440. What's this, sir?
Copy !req
441. My license
and registration.
Copy !req
442. Yeah, I want to be
in compliance.
Copy !req
443. I was just thinking we could
take care of it right here,
Copy !req
444. in Brainerd.
Copy !req
445. Put that back in
your pocket, please,
Copy !req
446. and step out of the
car, please, sir.
Copy !req
447. Shut the fuck up.
Copy !req
448. Whoa.
Copy !req
449. Whoa, daddy.
Copy !req
450. You'll take care of it.
Copy !req
451. You are smooth,
smooth, you know?
Copy !req
452. On, daddy.
Copy !req
453. Just clear him
off the road.
Copy !req
454. Yeah.
Copy !req
455. No!
Copy !req
456. Oh, jeez.
Copy !req
457. Hi. It's Marge.
Copy !req
458. Oh, my. Where?
Copy !req
459. Yeah?
Copy !req
460. Oh, jeez.
Copy !req
461. Okay. There in a jiff.
Copy !req
462. Real good, then.
Copy !req
463. You can sleep.
It's early yet.
Copy !req
464. Got to go?
Copy !req
465. Yeah.
Copy !req
466. I'll fix you
some eggs.
Copy !req
467. It's okay, hon.
I gotta run.
Copy !req
468. You got to eat
a breakfast, Marge.
Copy !req
469. I'll fix you
some eggs.
Copy !req
470. Hon, you can sleep.
Copy !req
471. You gotta
eat a breakfast.
Copy !req
472. I'll fix you
some eggs.
Copy !req
473. Norm.
Copy !req
474. Thanks, hon.
Time to shove off.
Copy !req
475. Love you, Margie.
Copy !req
476. Love you, hon.
Copy !req
477. Hon?
Copy !req
478. Yeah?
Copy !req
479. Prowler needs a jump.
Copy !req
480. Hiya, Lou.
Copy !req
481. What you got there?
Copy !req
482. Margie, thought you might
need a little warm-up.
Copy !req
483. Thanks a bunch.
Copy !req
484. So what's
the deal now?
Copy !req
485. Gary says
triple homicide?
Copy !req
486. Yeah, looks pretty bad.
Copy !req
487. Two of them
are over here.
Copy !req
488. Where is everybody?
Copy !req
489. Well, it's cold, Margie.
Copy !req
490. Watch your step, Margie.
Copy !req
491. Jeez.So“.
Copy !req
492. Jeez!
Copy !req
493. Here's the second one!
Copy !req
494. It's in the head
and the hand there.
Copy !req
495. I guess that's
a defensive wound.
Copy !req
496. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
497. Where's the
state trooper?
Copy !req
498. Back there a good piece, in the
ditch next to his prowler.
Copy !req
499. Okay.
Copy !req
500. So we got a trooper
pulls someone over.
Copy !req
501. We got a shooting.
Copy !req
502. These folks drive by.
Copy !req
503. There's a high-speed
pursuit, ends here,
Copy !req
504. and then this
execution-type deal.
Copy !req
505. Yeah.
Copy !req
506. I'd be very surprised if our
suspect was from Brainerd.
Copy !req
507. Yeah.
Copy !req
508. And I'll tell you what.
Copy !req
509. From his footprint, he
looks like a big fella.
Copy !req
510. You see something
down there, Chief?
Copy !req
511. No. I just think
I'm gonna barf.
Copy !req
512. Jeez.
Copy !req
513. You okay, Margie?
Copy !req
514. Yeah. I'm fine.
Copy !req
515. It's just
morning sickness.
Copy !req
516. Well, that passed.
Copy !req
517. Yeah?
Copy !req
518. Yeah. Now
I'm hungry again.
Copy !req
519. You have breakfast
yet, Margie?
Copy !req
520. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
521. Norm made some eggs.
Copy !req
522. Yeah?
Copy !req
523. Well...
Copy !req
524. What now, do you think?
Copy !req
525. Let's go take
a look at that trooper.
Copy !req
526. There's different
footprints here, Lou.
Copy !req
527. Yeah?
Copy !req
528. Yeah. This guy's
smaller than his buddy.
Copy !req
529. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
530. For Pete's sake.
Copy !req
531. How's it look, Marge?
Copy !req
532. Well, he's got his gun
on his hip there,
Copy !req
533. and he looks like
a nice enough guy.
Copy !req
534. It's a real shame.
Copy !req
535. Yeah.
Copy !req
536. Didn't monkey with his
car there, did you?
Copy !req
537. No way.
Copy !req
538. Well, somebody
shut his lights.
Copy !req
539. I guess the little guy
sat in there
Copy !req
540. waiting for his
buddy to come back.
Copy !req
541. Yeah, it would have
been cold out here.
Copy !req
542. Heck, yeah. You think
is Dave open yet?
Copy !req
543. Dave?
Copy !req
544. You don't think
he's mixed up in...
Copy !req
545. Oh, no, no. I just want to get
Norm some night crawlers.
Copy !req
546. Did you look
in his citation book?
Copy !req
547. Yeah. Last vehicle he wrote in
was a tan Cierra at 2:18 a.m.
Copy !req
548. Under plate
number he put "DLR."
Copy !req
549. I figure they stopped him
or shot him
Copy !req
550. before he could finish
filling out the tag number.
Copy !req
551. So, I got the State looking for a
Cierra with a tag starting "DLR."
Copy !req
552. They don't got
no match yet.
Copy !req
553. I'm not sure that
I agree with you 100%
Copy !req
554. on your police
work there, Lou.
Copy !req
555. Yeah?
Yeah.
Copy !req
556. I think that vehicle there
probably had dealer plates.
Copy !req
557. "DLR."
Copy !req
558. Oh.
Copy !req
559. Jeez.
Copy !req
560. Say, Lou,
Copy !req
561. did you hear
the one about the guy
Copy !req
562. who couldn't afford
personalized plates,
Copy !req
563. so he went and changed
his name to J3L-2404?
Copy !req
564. Yeah. That's a good one.
Copy !req
565. Look, all's I know is, you got a
problem, you call a professional.
Copy !req
566. No. They said no cops.
Copy !req
567. They were darn
clear on that, Wade.
Copy !req
568. They said, "You call your cops,
and we're gonna shoot..."
Copy !req
569. Of course they're
gonna say that.
Copy !req
570. Where's my protection?
They got Jean here.
Copy !req
571. If I give these sons
of bitches $1 million,
Copy !req
572. where's my guarantee
they're gonna let her go?
Copy !req
573. Well, they...
Copy !req
574. $1 million is a lot
of damn money.
Copy !req
575. Yeah, but... There they are.
They got my daughter.
Copy !req
576. Think this thing
through here, Wade.
Copy !req
577. You give them what they want,
why won't they let her go?
Copy !req
578. You got to listen to
me on this one, Wade.
Copy !req
579. Heck, you don't know.
Copy !req
580. You're just whistling
Dixie here.
Copy !req
581. I'm saying the cops, they
can advise us on this.
Copy !req
582. I'm saying
call a professional.
Copy !req
583. No. No cops.
Copy !req
584. That's final. This is
my deal here, Wade.
Copy !req
585. Yeah.
Copy !req
586. Jean is my wife here.
Copy !req
587. I gotta tell you, Wade, I'm leaning
to Jerry's viewpoint here.
Copy !req
588. Well...
Copy !req
589. We got to protect Jean. These“.
Copy !req
590. We're not holding
any cards here, Wade.
Copy !req
591. They got them all.
So they call the shots.
Copy !req
592. You're darn tooting.
Copy !req
593. Oh, damn it.
Copy !req
594. I'm telling you.
Copy !req
595. Well, why don't we...
Copy !req
596. Stan, I'm thinking we should
offer them a half a million.
Copy !req
597. Now, come on here!
Copy !req
598. No way, Wade.
No way.
Copy !req
599. We're not horse-trading
here, Wade.
Copy !req
600. Yeah.
Copy !req
601. We gotta just bite the
bullet on this thing.
Copy !req
602. Yeah.
Copy !req
603. So, well, what's the
next step here, Jerry?
Copy !req
604. They're gonna call me up and
give me instructions for a drop.
Copy !req
605. I'm supposed to have the
money ready tomorrow.
Copy !req
606. Damn it!
Copy !req
607. How was everything today?
Copy !req
608. Yeah. Real good, now.
Copy !req
609. How you doing?
Copy !req
610. Okay. Now, we'll get
the money together.
Copy !req
611. Don't worry
about it, Jerry.
Copy !req
612. Now, do you want anyone at
home with you till they call?
Copy !req
613. No, I...
They don't...
Copy !req
614. They were just supposed
to be dealing with me.
Copy !req
615. They were real clear.
Yeah.
Copy !req
616. You know, they said
no one listening in.
Copy !req
617. They'll be watching.
Copy !req
618. You know,
maybe it's all bull,
Copy !req
619. but like you said, Stan,
they're calling the shots.
Copy !req
620. Okay.
Copy !req
621. Now, is Scotty
gonna be all right?
Copy !req
622. Yeah. Jeez. Scotty.
Copy !req
623. Yeah. I'll go
talk to him.
Copy !req
624. How you doing
there, Scotty?
Copy !req
625. Dad...
Copy !req
626. What are they doing?
Copy !req
627. What do you think
they're doing with Mom?
Copy !req
628. It's okay, Scotty.
Copy !req
629. They're not gonna
wanna hurt her any.
Copy !req
630. These men,
they just want money.
Copy !req
631. Yeah, well, what if
something goes wrong, Dad?
Copy !req
632. No, no. Nothing's
going wrong here.
Copy !req
633. Granddad and I, we're, we're making
sure this gets handled right.
Copy !req
634. I really think we should
call the cops here.
Copy !req
635. No. No. No one can
know about this thing.
Copy !req
636. We gotta play
ball with these guys.
Copy !req
637. You ask Stan Grossman, he'll
tell you the same thing.
Copy !req
638. Yeah. But, Dad...
Copy !req
639. We're gonna get Mom back for
you, but we gotta play ball.
Copy !req
640. You know?
Copy !req
641. That's the deal here.
Copy !req
642. So if Lorraine calls,
or Sylvia,
Copy !req
643. you just say Mom's down in
Florida, with Pearl and Marty.
Copy !req
644. That's the best
we can do here.
Copy !req
645. No!
Copy !req
646. No!
Copy !req
647. Oh, God.
Copy !req
648. Lunchtime.
Copy !req
649. Thanks,
Margaret.
Copy !req
650. Hi. Hey.
Copy !req
651. Willy. Carol.
Copy !req
652. Janie, two more of those
Skin So Soft, please.
Copy !req
653. Sure thing.
Copy !req
654. Hiya, hon.
Copy !req
655. I brought you
some lunch, Margie.
Copy !req
656. What are those?
Night crawlers?
Copy !req
657. Yeah.
Copy !req
658. Oh, thanks, hon.
Copy !req
659. You bet.
Thanks for lunch.
Copy !req
660. Yeah.
Looks pretty good.
Copy !req
661. What do we
got here, Arby's?
Copy !req
662. How's the painting going?
Copy !req
663. Pretty good.
Copy !req
664. Found out the Hautmans are
entering a painting this year.
Copy !req
665. Hon, you're better
than them.
Copy !req
666. They're real good.
Copy !req
667. They're good, Norm, but
you're better than them.
Copy !req
668. You think so?
Copy !req
669. Hey, you got Arby's
all over me.
Copy !req
670. Hiya, Norm.
How's the painting going?
Copy !req
671. Not too bad.
You know.
Copy !req
672. How we doing
on that vehicle?
Copy !req
673. Well, no motels registered
any tan Cierra last night,
Copy !req
674. but the night before, two men
checked into the Blue Ox,
Copy !req
675. registering a Cierra and
leaving the tag space blank.
Copy !req
676. Jeez, that's
a good lead.
Copy !req
677. Yeah.
Copy !req
678. Blue Ox, that's that truckers'
joint out there on I-35?
Copy !req
679. Yeah. Owner was
on the desk then.
Copy !req
680. Said these two
had company.
Copy !req
681. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
682. Yeah.
Copy !req
683. Yeah, we both did.
She went to college, too.
Copy !req
684. I went to Normandale
for about a year and a half.
Copy !req
685. Yeah, that's where
we met.
Copy !req
686. But I dropped out,
though.
Copy !req
687. Yeah.
She dropped.
Copy !req
688. Yeah.
Copy !req
689. So where you girls from?
Copy !req
690. Chaska.
Le Sueur.
Copy !req
691. But I went to high school
in White Bear Lake.
Copy !req
692. Go Bears.
Copy !req
693. Okay. I want you to tell me
what these fellows looked like.
Copy !req
694. Well, the little guy, he
was kind of funny-looking.
Copy !req
695. In what way?
Copy !req
696. I don't know.
Just funny-looking.
Copy !req
697. Can you be
any more specific?
Copy !req
698. I couldn't really say.
Copy !req
699. He wasn't circumcised.
Copy !req
700. Was he funny-looking
apart from that?
Copy !req
701. Yeah.
Copy !req
702. So, you were having sex
with the little fella, then.
Copy !req
703. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
704. Is there anything else
you can tell me about him?
Copy !req
705. No. Like I say,
he was funny-looking.
Copy !req
706. More than
most people, even.
Copy !req
707. What about
the other fella?
Copy !req
708. He was a little older.
Copy !req
709. You know, he looked
like the Marlboro Man.
Copy !req
710. Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
Copy !req
711. But maybe I'm saying
that, you know,
Copy !req
712. 'cause he smoked
a lot of Marlboros.
Copy !req
713. You know, like a
subconscious type of thing.
Copy !req
714. Oh, yeah,
that can happen.
Copy !req
715. Yeah.
Copy !req
716. Hey, they said they were
going to the Twin Cities.
Copy !req
717. Oh, yeah?
Yeah!
Copy !req
718. Yeah, is that
useful to you?
Copy !req
719. You betcha. Yeah.
Copy !req
720. Yeah.
Yeah.
Copy !req
721. Come on!
Copy !req
722. Goddamn it!
Copy !req
723. Jesus Christ.
Copy !req
724. Fucking shitbox.
Copy !req
725. Been here for days.
Copy !req
726. Damn it.
Nothing to do.
Copy !req
727. Fucking TV
doesn't even...
Copy !req
728. Damn it, come on! Plug me in, man.
Give me a fucking signal.
Copy !req
729. Goddamn it!
Copy !req
730. Unbelievable! Come on!
Copy !req
731. God...
Copy !req
732. Fuck!
Copy !req
733. Come on, plug me into
the ozone, baby! Come on!
Copy !req
734. Come on!
Copy !req
735. Fuck! Fuck!
Copy !req
736. Fuck! Fuck!
Copy !req
737. The bark beetle
carries the worm to its nest
Copy !req
738. where it will feed its young
for up to six months.
Copy !req
739. In the spring, the larvae hatch,
and the cycle begins again.
Copy !req
740. Well...
Copy !req
741. I'm turning in, Norm.
Copy !req
742. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
743. Here it is, throwing
off the larval envelope.
Copy !req
744. Hello?
Copy !req
745. Yeah.
Is this Marge?
Copy !req
746. Yeah.
Copy !req
747. Margie Olmstead?
Copy !req
748. Yeah. Who's this?
Copy !req
749. This is Mike Yanagita!
Copy !req
750. You know, Mike Yanagita.
Remember me?
Copy !req
751. Mike Yanagita?
Copy !req
752. Yeah!
Copy !req
753. Well, yeah!
Copy !req
754. Course I remember you.
Copy !req
755. How are you doing?
What time is it?
Copy !req
756. Oh, jeez.
It's 10:45.
Copy !req
757. I hope
I didn't wake you.
Copy !req
758. No. That's okay.
Copy !req
759. Yeah, I'm down in
the Twin Cities,
Copy !req
760. and I was just watching on TV about
these shootings up in Brainerd.
Copy !req
761. And I saw you
on the news there.
Copy !req
762. Yeah.
Copy !req
763. I thought, "Jeez, is
that Margie Olmstead?"
Copy !req
764. I can't believe it.
Copy !req
765. Yeah, that's me.
Copy !req
766. Well, how the heck
are you?
Copy !req
767. Okay. You know.
Copy !req
768. Okay.
Copy !req
769. Yeah?
Yeah.
Copy !req
770. How you doing?
Copy !req
771. Pretty good.
Copy !req
772. Well, heck.
Copy !req
773. It's been such
a long time, Mike.
Copy !req
774. It's great to
hear from you.
Copy !req
775. Yeah, you got your...
Copy !req
776. This is loaded here. This
has your independent...
Copy !req
777. Your front-wheel drive,
rack-and-pinion steering,
Copy !req
778. antilock brakes,
alarm, radar,
Copy !req
779. and I can give it to you
with a heck of a sealant.
Copy !req
780. This TruCoat stuff,
it'll keep the salt off.
Copy !req
781. Yeah, I don't need
no sealant, though.
Copy !req
782. Yeah.
You don't need that.
Copy !req
783. Now, were you thinking
of financing here?
Copy !req
784. You ought to be aware of this
GMAC plan they have now.
Copy !req
785. It's really super.
Copy !req
786. Got a call
for you, Jerry.
Copy !req
787. Yeah, okay.
Copy !req
788. Jerry Lundegaard.
Copy !req
789. All right, Jerry, you
got the phone to yourself?
Copy !req
790. Well, yeah.
Copy !req
791. You know who this is?
Copy !req
792. Well, yeah,
I got an idea.
Copy !req
793. How's that Cierra
working out for you?
Copy !req
794. Circumstances
have changed, Jerry.
Copy !req
795. Well...
Copy !req
796. What do you mean?
Copy !req
797. Things have changed. Circumstances,
Jerry, beyond the acts of God.
Copy !req
798. Force majeure.
Copy !req
799. What the...
Copy !req
800. How's Jean?
Copy !req
801. Who's Jean?
Copy !req
802. My wife. What the...
Copy !req
803. She's all right, but there's
three people up in Brainerd
Copy !req
804. who aren't so okay,
I'll tell you that.
Copy !req
805. What the heck
are you talking about?
Copy !req
806. Let's just finish
this deal up here.
Copy !req
807. Blood has been
shed, Jerry.
Copy !req
808. What the heck
do you mean?
Copy !req
809. Three people
in Brainerd.
Copy !req
810. Oh, jeez.
Copy !req
811. That's right, and
we need more money.
Copy !req
812. What the heck
are you talking about?
Copy !req
813. What do you fellas
got yourself mixed up in?
Copy !req
814. We need more money...
Copy !req
815. This was supposed to be
a no-rough-stuff type deal.
Copy !req
816. Don't ever interrupt me, Jerry!
Just shut the fuck up!
Copy !req
817. Well, I'm sorry,
but I just, I...
Copy !req
818. I'm not gonna debate you, Jerry.
I'm not gonna debate!
Copy !req
819. We now want
the entire 80,000.
Copy !req
820. Oh, for Christ's sake here.
Copy !req
821. Blood has been shed.
Copy !req
822. We've incurred
risk, Jerry.
Copy !req
823. I'm coming into
town tomorrow.
Copy !req
824. You have
the money ready.
Copy !req
825. Now, we had a deal here.
A deal's a deal.
Copy !req
826. Is it, Jerry?
Copy !req
827. You ask those three poor souls up
in Brainerd if a deal's a deal.
Copy !req
828. Go ahead, ask them!
Copy !req
829. The heck do you mean?
Copy !req
830. "The heck do you mean?"
I'll see you tomorrow.
Copy !req
831. Yeah?
Copy !req
832. Jerome Lundegaard?
Copy !req
833. Yeah.
Copy !req
834. This is Reilly Diefenbach
at GMAC.
Copy !req
835. Sir, I've not received those
vehicle IDs you promised.
Copy !req
836. Yeah. I...
Copy !req
837. Those are in the mail.
Copy !req
838. That very well may be. I
must inform you, however,
Copy !req
839. that absent the receipt of those
numbers by tomorrow afternoon,
Copy !req
840. I will have to refer this
matter to our legal department.
Copy !req
841. Yeah.
Copy !req
842. My patience is at an end.
Yeah.
Copy !req
843. Good day, sir.
Yeah.
Copy !req
844. Hi, Norm.
How you doing, Margie?
Copy !req
845. How's the fricassee?
Copy !req
846. Pretty darn good.
You want some?
Copy !req
847. Oh, no. I got...
Copy !req
848. Hey, Norm, I thought you was going
ice fishing up at Mille Lacs.
Copy !req
849. Yeah. After lunch.
Copy !req
850. What you got there?
Copy !req
851. The numbers
you asked for.
Copy !req
852. Calls made from the lobby
pay phone at the Blue Ox.
Copy !req
853. Two to Minneapolis
that night.
Copy !req
854. First one's
a trucking company
Copy !req
855. and second one's
a private residence,
Copy !req
856. a Shep Proudfoot.
Copy !req
857. A what?
Copy !req
858. Shep Proudfoot.
That's a name.
Copy !req
859. Yeah.
Copy !req
860. Okay. Yeah.
Copy !req
861. Think I'll take a drive
down there, then.
Copy !req
862. Oh, yeah?
Twin Cities.
Copy !req
863. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
864. Damn it, I want to be
a part of this thing.
Copy !req
865. No. Wade,
they were real clear.
Copy !req
866. They said they'd call
tomorrow with instructions,
Copy !req
867. and it's gotta be
delivered by me alone.
Copy !req
868. It's my money,
I'll deliver it.
Copy !req
869. What do they care?
Copy !req
870. Wade's got
a point, there.
Copy !req
871. I'll handle the call
if you want, Jerry.
Copy !req
872. No, no. See, they...
Copy !req
873. No. See, they only
deal with me.
Copy !req
874. You feel this nervousness
on the phone there.
Copy !req
875. They're very... These
guys are dangerous.
Copy !req
876. All the more reason.
I don't want you...
Copy !req
877. With all due respect, Jerry, I
don't want you mucking this up.
Copy !req
878. What the heck
do you mean?
Copy !req
879. They want my money,
they can deal with me.
Copy !req
880. Otherwise, I'm going
to a professional.
Copy !req
881. No, see“.
There's $1 million here.
Copy !req
882. No. See...
Copy !req
883. Look, Jerry, you're not
selling me a damn car!
Copy !req
884. It's my show here.
That's that!
Copy !req
885. It's the way we'd prefer
to handle it, Jerry.
Copy !req
886. Hi. How you doing?
Copy !req
887. Real good. How are you
doing today, ma'am?
Copy !req
888. I'm doing really
super there. Thanks.
Copy !req
889. I'm Mrs. Gunderson.
I have a reservation.
Copy !req
890. Yep. You sure do,
Mrs. Gunderson.
Copy !req
891. Is there a phone
down here, you think?
Copy !req
892. Detective Sibert?
Copy !req
893. Yeah, this is Marge Gunderson
from up Brainerd. We spoke.
Copy !req
894. Yeah. Well, actually,
I'm in town here.
Copy !req
895. I had to do a few things
in the Twin Cities,
Copy !req
896. so I thought
I'd check in with you
Copy !req
897. about that USFI search
on Shep Proudfoot.
Copy !req
898. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
899. Well, maybe I'll go visit
with him if I have...
Copy !req
900. No. I can find that.
Copy !req
901. Yeah. Well,
thanks a bunch.
Copy !req
902. Say, say, would you
happen to know
Copy !req
903. a good place for lunch
in the downtown area?
Copy !req
904. The Radisson.
Copy !req
905. Oh, yeah?
Is it reasonable?
Copy !req
906. Hi. How you doing?
Copy !req
907. Yeah. I decided
not to park here.
Copy !req
908. Well, what do you mean? You
decided not to park here?
Copy !req
909. Yeah, I just came in and I
decided not to park here, so...
Copy !req
910. But...
Well, I'm sorry, sir...
Copy !req
911. Yeah, I decided
not to... I...
Copy !req
912. You know, I'm not...
Copy !req
913. I decided not to take the
trip, as it turns out, so...
Copy !req
914. Well, I'm sorry, sir, we still
got to charge you the $4.
Copy !req
915. I just pulled in here.
Copy !req
916. I just fucking
pulled in here.
Copy !req
917. Well, but...
Copy !req
918. See, there's a minimum
charge of $4.
Copy !req
919. Long-term parking
charges by the day.
Copy !req
920. I guess you think you're, you
know, like an authority figure.
Copy !req
921. That stupid fucking
uniform, huh, buddy?
Copy !req
922. King clip-on tie there.
Copy !req
923. Big fucking man, huh?
Copy !req
924. You know, these are the
limits of your life, man.
Copy !req
925. Ruler of your
little fucking gate here.
Copy !req
926. Here. There's your $4,
you pathetic piece of shit.
Copy !req
927. Where's Shep?
Copy !req
928. Talking to a cop.
Copy !req
929. Cop?
Copy !req
930. Said she was a cop.
Copy !req
931. So do you remember
getting a call Wednesday night?
Copy !req
932. Nope.
Copy !req
933. You do reside there
at 1425 Freemont Terrace?
Copy !req
934. Yep.
Copy !req
935. Anyone else
residing there?
Copy !req
936. No.
Copy !req
937. Well, Mr. Proudfoot, this call
came in past 3:00 in the morning.
Copy !req
938. It's just hard for me to believe
you don't remember anyone calling.
Copy !req
939. Now, I know you've
had some problems.
Copy !req
940. Struggling with
the narcotics,
Copy !req
941. some other entanglements,
currently on parole.
Copy !req
942. So?
Copy !req
943. Well, associating
with criminals,
Copy !req
944. if you're the one
they talked to,
Copy !req
945. that right there would be a
violation of your parole.
Copy !req
946. Would end you up
back in Stillwater.
Copy !req
947. Now, I saw some rough
stuff on your priors,
Copy !req
948. but nothing in the
nature of a homicide.
Copy !req
949. I know you don't want to be an
accessory to something like that.
Copy !req
950. So, you think
you might remember
Copy !req
951. who those folks
were who called you?
Copy !req
952. Mr. Lundegaard?
Copy !req
953. Yeah.
Copy !req
954. Could I take just a minute
of your time here?
Copy !req
955. What is it all about?
Copy !req
956. Do you mind
if I sit down?
Copy !req
957. Carrying quite
a load here.
Copy !req
958. You're the owner here,
Mr. Lundegaard?
Copy !req
959. No. I...
Executive Sales Manager.
Copy !req
960. Well, you can help me.
My name's Marge Gunderson.
Copy !req
961. My father-in-law,
he's the owner.
Copy !req
962. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
963. Well, I'm a police officer
from up Brainerd,
Copy !req
964. investigating
some malfeasance.
Copy !req
965. And I was just wondering if
you'd had any new vehicles
Copy !req
966. stolen off the lot
in the past couple of weeks.
Copy !req
967. Specifically
a tan Cutlass Cierra.
Copy !req
968. Mr. Lundegaard.
Copy !req
969. Brainerd.
Copy !req
970. Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
971. Home of Paul Bunyan,
Babe, the Blue Ox.
Copy !req
972. Babe, the Blue Ox.
Copy !req
973. Yeah, you know, we got
that big statue up there.
Copy !req
974. So, you haven't had any
vehicles go missing, then?
Copy !req
975. Nope. No, ma'am.
Copy !req
976. Okey-dokey.
Thanks a bunch.
Copy !req
977. I'll let you get back
to your paperwork, then.
Copy !req
978. Service.
Yeah, get me Shep.
Copy !req
979. He's not here
right now.
Copy !req
980. What the heck
do you mean?
Copy !req
981. He stepped out.
Copy !req
982. Where'd he go? It's only...
I'll get you Artie.
Copy !req
983. No. I don't need
a mechanic. I need a...
Copy !req
984. Jeez. I gotta talk
to a friend of his,
Copy !req
985. so...
Copy !req
986. Have him...
Copy !req
987. What?
Copy !req
988. Oh, jeez.
Copy !req
989. Mike?
Copy !req
990. Marge?
Copy !req
991. Jeez! Oh, you look great!
Copy !req
992. Yeah. So do you.
Easy there. Easy...
Copy !req
993. Easy there. Easy there.
You do, too.
Copy !req
994. I'm expecting now.
Copy !req
995. I see that.
That's great.
Copy !req
996. What can I get you?
Copy !req
997. Just a Diet Coke, please.
Copy !req
998. Great.
Copy !req
999. This is a nice place.
Copy !req
1000. Yeah. You know, it's the
Radisson, so it's pretty good.
Copy !req
1001. Yeah.
Copy !req
1002. So...
Copy !req
1003. You're living
in Edina, then?
Copy !req
1004. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A couple of years now.
Copy !req
1005. It's actually
Eden Prairie.
Copy !req
1006. That school district.
Copy !req
1007. So, Chief Gunderson, then!
Copy !req
1008. So, you went and married
Norm son-of-a-Gunderson.
Copy !req
1009. Oh, yeah.
Long time ago.
Copy !req
1010. Great, great.
Copy !req
1011. So, what brings you down?
Copy !req
1012. Are you down here
on that homicide,
Copy !req
1013. if you're allowed, you
know, to discuss that?
Copy !req
1014. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
1015. But there's not a heck
of a lot to discuss.
Copy !req
1016. Okay.
Copy !req
1017. Well, what about you, Mike?
Copy !req
1018. Are you married?
Copy !req
1019. You got kids?
Copy !req
1020. Yeah, yeah. Well...
Copy !req
1021. I was married.
I was married to...
Copy !req
1022. You mind
if I sit over here?
Copy !req
1023. I was married
to Linda Cooksey.
Copy !req
1024. No. Why don't you sit over there?
I prefer that.
Copy !req
1025. Okay.
Copy !req
1026. Sorry.
Copy !req
1027. No, no. Just so I can see you.
Don't have to turn my neck.
Copy !req
1028. Sure, sure. I understand.
Copy !req
1029. I didn't mean to...
Copy !req
1030. No, no. That's fine.
Copy !req
1031. Yeah, sorry. Sorry.
Copy !req
1032. So, I was married
to Linda Cooksey.
Copy !req
1033. You remember Linda.
She was a year behind us.
Copy !req
1034. Yeah. I think
I remember her.
Copy !req
1035. Yeah! She...
Oh, yeah!
Copy !req
1036. So, it didn't
work out, huh?
Copy !req
1037. And then I've been working for
Honeywell for a few years now.
Copy !req
1038. Well, they're
a good outfit.
Copy !req
1039. Yeah, if you're an engineer,
yeah, you could do a lot worse.
Copy !req
1040. But it's not...
Copy !req
1041. It's nothing like
your achievement.
Copy !req
1042. Well, it sounds like
you're doing really super.
Copy !req
1043. It's not that...
Copy !req
1044. It's not that things
didn't work out. It's...
Copy !req
1045. Linda had leukemia,
you know.
Copy !req
1046. She was...
She passed away.
Copy !req
1047. No.
Copy !req
1048. It was tough.
Copy !req
1049. There you go.
Copy !req
1050. It was long...
Copy !req
1051. She fought
real hard, Marge.
Copy !req
1052. You know...
Copy !req
1053. So, what can you say?
Copy !req
1054. Better times, huh?
Copy !req
1055. Better times.
Copy !req
1056. And then I saw you on the TV
and I remembered, you know?
Copy !req
1057. I always liked you.
Copy !req
1058. Well, I always
liked you...
Copy !req
1059. I always
liked you so much.
Copy !req
1060. So, Mike, should we get together
another time, you think?
Copy !req
1061. No! I...
Copy !req
1062. I'm sorry. It's...
Copy !req
1063. You know, I shouldn't
have done this.
Copy !req
1064. I shouldn't have done this.
I shouldn't.
Copy !req
1065. I thought we'd have
a really terrific time.
Copy !req
1066. It's okay, Mike.
Copy !req
1067. You were
such a super lady.
Copy !req
1068. And then...
I've been so lonely.
Copy !req
1069. It's okay, Mike.
Copy !req
1070. Here's a song I dedicate to
all the ladies out here tonight.
Copy !req
1071. Goes like this.
Copy !req
1072. (S I N G I N G) Let's
find each other tonight
Copy !req
1073. Everything
will be all right
Copy !req
1074. Don't hesitate now
Copy !req
1075. Let's find
each other tonight
Copy !req
1076. So...
Copy !req
1077. Are you
from around here?
Copy !req
1078. Just in town on business.
Copy !req
1079. Just in and out.
Copy !req
1080. Just a little
of the old in-and-out.
Copy !req
1081. What do you do?
Copy !req
1082. I...
Copy !req
1083. You been to the
Celebrity Room before?
Copy !req
1084. With other clients?
Copy !req
1085. I don't think so.
Copy !req
1086. It's nice.
Copy !req
1087. Yeah, well,
depends on the artist.
Copy !req
1088. You know, Jose Feliciano,
you got no complaints.
Copy !req
1089. Waiter!
Copy !req
1090. What is he, deaf?
Copy !req
1091. So...
Copy !req
1092. How long you work
for the escort service?
Copy !req
1093. I don't know.
A few months.
Copy !req
1094. Find that work
interesting, do you?
Copy !req
1095. What are you

Copy !req
1096. Right.
Copy !req
1097. Come on.
Copy !req

Copy !req
1119. You got

Copy !req
1120. Yeah, I got
the money, but...
Copy !req
1121. Don't you fucking
but me, Jerry.
Copy !req
1122. I want you to put this money in the
Dayton Radisson parking ramp, top level,
Copy !req
1123. 30 minutes, Jerry,

Copy !req
1124. Okay. But...

Copy !req

Copy !req
1148. Fuck you, man!
Where's Jerry?
Copy !req
1149. I gave simple
fucking instructions.
Copy !req
1150. Where's my damn daughter?
Copy !req
1151. No Jean, no money.
Copy !req
1152. Drop that fucking money!
Copy !req
1153. No Jean, no money!
Copy !req
1154. Is this a fucking joke here?
Copy !req
1155. Oh, jeez.
Copy !req
1156. You happy now, asshole?
Copy !req
1157. What's with you people?
Copy !req
1158. You fucking imbeciles!
Copy !req
1159. You fucking shot me!
Copy !req
1160. May I have your ticket,
please?
Copy !req
1161. Open the fucking gate!
Copy !req
1162. Oh, jeez.
Copy !req
1163. SCOTTY'. Dad'?
Copy !req
1164. Yeah?
Copy !req
1165. Stan Grossman called.
Copy !req
1166. Yeah. Okay.
Copy !req
1167. Twice.
Copy !req
1168. Okay.
Copy !req
1169. Is everything okay?
Copy !req
1170. Yeah.
Copy !req
1171. Are you calling Stan?
Copy !req
1172. Well, I'm...
Copy !req
1173. I'm going to bed now.
Copy !req
1174. How you doing?
Copy !req
1175. Mr. Mohra?
Yeah?
Copy !req
1176. Officer Olson.
Copy !req
1177. Yeah. Righto.
Copy !req
1178. Well...
Copy !req
1179. So I'm tending bar down there at
Ecklund and Swedlin's last Tuesday,
Copy !req
1180. and this little
guy's drinking,
Copy !req
1181. and he says, "Where can
a guy find some action?
Copy !req
1182. "I'm going crazy out
there at the lake."
Copy !req
1183. And I says,
"What kind of action?"
Copy !req
1184. And he says, "Woman action.
What do I look like?"
Copy !req
1185. And I says, "Well,
what do I look like?
Copy !req
1186. "I don't arrange
that kind of thing."
Copy !req
1187. And he says, "But I'm going
crazy out there at the lake."
Copy !req
1188. And I says, "Yeah, but this
ain't that kind of place."
Copy !req
1189. He says, "Oh, so I get it. So you think
I'm some kind of jerk for asking."
Copy !req
1190. Only he don't use
the word "jerk."
Copy !req
1191. I understand.
Then he calls me a jerk,
Copy !req
1192. says the last guy thought
he's a jerk is dead now.
Copy !req
1193. So, I don't
say nothing.
Copy !req
1194. He says, "What do you
think about that?"
Copy !req
1195. And I says, "Well, that don't sound
like too good a deal for him, then."
Copy !req
1196. You got that right.
Copy !req
1197. Yeah, he says, "Yeah,
that guy's dead,
Copy !req
1198. "and I don't mean
of old age."
Copy !req
1199. And then he says, "Jeez, I'm going
crazy out there at the lake."
Copy !req
1200. White Bear Lake?
Copy !req
1201. Yeah, well, at Ecklund and Swedlin,
that's closer to Moose Lake.
Copy !req
1202. So I made
that assumption.
Copy !req
1203. Sure.
Copy !req
1204. Anyway, he's drinking
at the bar,
Copy !req
1205. so I don't think
a whole great deal of it,
Copy !req
1206. but then Mrs. Mohra, she heard
about the homicides down here
Copy !req
1207. and thought I should call
it in, so I called it in.
Copy !req
1208. End of story.
Copy !req
1209. Well, what'd this guy
look like, anyways?
Copy !req
1210. Oh, he's a...
Copy !req
1211. Little guy,
kind of funny-looking.
Copy !req
1212. In what way?
Copy !req
1213. Just in a general
kind of way.
Copy !req
1214. Okay. Well, thanks a
bunch, Mr. Mohra.
Copy !req
1215. You're right.
It's probably nothing,
Copy !req
1216. but thanks
for calling her in.
Copy !req
1217. Sure.
Copy !req
1218. Looks like she's gonna
turn cold tomorrow.
Copy !req
1219. Oh, yeah.
Got a front coming in.
Copy !req
1220. Yeah.
You got that right.
Copy !req
1221. Jesus Christ.
Copy !req
1222. Valerie, I'm leaving this
morning, back up to Brainerd.
Copy !req
1223. Well, I'm sorry
I won't see you.
Copy !req
1224. But you think
he's all right?
Copy !req
1225. I saw him
last night and...
Copy !req
1226. What did he say?
Copy !req
1227. Well, it's nothing
specific he said.
Copy !req
1228. It just seemed like it all hit
him really hard, his wife dying.
Copy !req
1229. His wife?
Linda.
Copy !req
1230. Who?
Linda Cooksey.
Copy !req
1231. No. No, no.
They weren't...
Copy !req
1232. He was bothering Linda for about...
For a good year.
Copy !req
1233. Really pestering her,
wouldn't leave her alone.
Copy !req
1234. So...
Copy !req
1235. He didn't...
Copy !req
1236. He never...
Copy !req
1237. No! No,
they never married.
Copy !req
1238. Mike's had
psychiatric problems.
Copy !req
1239. Oh, my-
Copy !req
1240. Yeah, he's been
struggling.
Copy !req
1241. He's living
with his parents now.
Copy !req
1242. Oh, jeez.
Copy !req
1243. Linda's fine.
You should call her.
Copy !req
1244. Jeez. Well...
Copy !req
1245. Jeez.
Copy !req
1246. That's a surprise.
Copy !req
1247. Hello!
Copy !req
1248. Mr. Lundegaard, sorry to bother you again.
Can I come in?
Copy !req
1249. Yeah... No.
I'm kind of busy here.
Copy !req
1250. I understand. I'll keep
it real short, then.
Copy !req
1251. I'm on my way out of town,
but I was wondering...
Copy !req
1252. Do you mind
if I sit down?
Copy !req
1253. Carrying a bit
of a load here.
Copy !req
1254. No, I...
Copy !req
1255. Yeah, it's this vehicle
I asked about yesterday.
Copy !req
1256. I was just wondering...
Copy !req
1257. Yeah, like I told you, we haven't
had any vehicles go missing.
Copy !req
1258. Okay. Are you sure?
Copy !req
1259. 'Cause I mean,
how do you know?
Copy !req
1260. Because, see, the crime
I'm investigating,
Copy !req
1261. the perpetrators were driving
a car with dealer plates,
Copy !req
1262. and they called
someone who works here,
Copy !req
1263. so it'd be quite a
coincidence if they weren't,
Copy !req
1264. you know, connected.
Copy !req
1265. Yeah, I see.
Copy !req
1266. So, how do you...
Copy !req
1267. Have you done any kind
of inventory recently?
Copy !req
1268. The car's not
from our lot, ma'am.
Copy !req
1269. But how do you know that for
sure without doing a...
Copy !req
1270. Well, I would know.
Copy !req
1271. I'm the Executive
Sales Manager.
Copy !req
1272. Yeah, but I understand...
Copy !req
1273. We run a pretty tight
ship here.
Copy !req
1274. I know, but...
Copy !req
1275. Well, how do
they establish that, sir?
Copy !req
1276. I mean,
are the cars counted daily,
Copy !req
1277. or what kind
of a routine here?
Copy !req
1278. Ma'am, I answered
your question.
Copy !req
1279. I'm sorry, sir?
Copy !req
1280. Ma'am, I answered
your question.
Copy !req
1281. I answered the darn...
Copy !req
1282. I'm cooperating
here, and there's no...
Copy !req
1283. Sir, you have no call
to get snippy with me.
Copy !req
1284. I'm just doing
my job here.
Copy !req
1285. I'm...
Copy !req
1286. I'm not...
I'm not arguing here.
Copy !req
1287. I'm cooperating,
and there's no...
Copy !req
1288. We're doing all we can.
Copy !req
1289. Sir, could I talk
to Mr. Gustafson?
Copy !req
1290. Mr. Lundegaard.
Copy !req
1291. Well, heck! If you wanna...
If you wanna play games here,
Copy !req
1292. I'm working with you
on this thing here, but...
Copy !req
1293. Okay! I'll do a damn lot count!
Copy !req
1294. Sir, right now?
Copy !req
1295. Yeah! Right now.
Copy !req
1296. You're darn tooting!
Copy !req
1297. If it's so damned
important to you.
Copy !req
1298. Well, I'm sorry, sir.
Copy !req
1299. What the Christ! Jeez!
Copy !req
1300. Bob Elcorona, line two.
Copy !req
1301. For Pete's sake.
Copy !req
1302. For Pete's sake, he's
fleeing the interview.
Copy !req
1303. He's fleeing
the interview!
Copy !req
1304. How do I get
an outside line here?
Copy !req
1305. All right.
Copy !req
1306. Yeah.
Detective Sibert, please.
Copy !req
1307. I told you it was over, and I
thought I made myself very clear.
Copy !req
1308. Oh, you did. You made
yourself perfectly clear.
Copy !req
1309. But something's
come up.
Copy !req
1310. What?
Copy !req
1311. Well, it's something
kind of small,
Copy !req
1312. but it might be
a big problem.
Copy !req
1313. I'm pregnant.
Copy !req
1314. I'm pregnant.
Copy !req
1315. I've had a doctor's test,
I've got the certificate,
Copy !req
1316. and there's no doubt about it,
I'm gonna have your baby.
Copy !req
1317. Now, look here.
I can explain this.
Copy !req
1318. See, Robin was...
ls a student of mine.
Copy !req
1319. You should see
the other guy.
Copy !req
1320. No,no, no. It wasn't
anything like that.
Copy !req
1321. You don't understand!
Copy !req
1322. I read that letter
that she wrote.
Copy !req
1323. I think I understand
all there is...
Copy !req
1324. What happened to her?
Copy !req
1325. She started shrieking,
you know.
Copy !req
1326. Jeez.
Copy !req
1327. Well, I got the money.
Copy !req
1328. All of it, all 80 grand.
Copy !req
1329. That's 40 for you,
40 for me.
Copy !req
1330. That's it, then.
Copy !req
1331. You can have my truck.
Copy !req
1332. I'm taking the Cierra.
Copy !req
1333. We split that.
Copy !req
1334. How the fuck do you split
a fucking car, you dummy?
Copy !req
1335. With a fucking chain saw?
Copy !req
1336. One of us pays
the other for half.
Copy !req
1337. Hold on.
No fucking way.
Copy !req
1338. Did you fucking
notice this?
Copy !req
1339. I got fucking shot!
Copy !req
1340. I got fucking
shot in the face!
Copy !req
1341. I went and got
the fucking money!
Copy !req
1342. I got shot
fucking picking it up!
Copy !req
1343. I've been up
for 36 fucking hours!
Copy !req
1344. I'm taking
that fucking car!
Copy !req
1345. That fuck is mine,
you fucking asshole.
Copy !req
1346. You know, I've been listening to
your fucking bullshit all week!
Copy !req
1347. Are we square?
Copy !req
1348. Are we square?
Copy !req
1349. Yeah, you fucking mute!
Copy !req
1350. And if you see your friend,
Shep Proudfoot,
Copy !req
1351. tell him I'm gonna
nail his fucking ass.
Copy !req
1352. I'll call you...
Later.
Copy !req
1353. His wife. This guy says
she was kidnapped last Wednesday.
Copy !req
1354. The day of
our homicides.
Copy !req
1355. Yeah.
Copy !req
1356. And this guy was who?
Copy !req
1357. Lundegaard's father-in-law's
accountant.
Copy !req
1358. Gustafson's accountant.
Copy !req
1359. Yeah.
Copy !req
1360. But we still
haven't found Gustafson?
Copy !req
1361. looking...
Copy !req
1362. Sorry. Didn't copy, Lou.
Copy !req
1363. Still missing.
We're looking.
Copy !req
1364. Copy.
And Lundegaard, too?
Copy !req
1365. Yeah.
Where are you, Margie?
Copy !req
1366. I'm almost back.
Copy !req
1367. I'm taking a drive
around Moose Lake.
Copy !req
1368. Gary's loudmouth.
Copy !req
1369. Yeah, the loudmouth.
Copy !req
1370. So the whole state
has it, huh?
Copy !req
1371. Gustafson and Lundegaard?
Copy !req
1372. Yeah.
It's over the wire.
Copy !req
1373. It's everywhere.
They'll find them.
Copy !req
1374. COPY-
Copy !req
1375. Yeah, we got
a lead on this...
Copy !req
1376. There's the car!
There's the car!
Copy !req
1377. Whose car?
Copy !req
1378. My car! My car!
Tan Cierra! Tan Cierra!
Copy !req
1379. Okay. Careful, Margie.
I'll send a couple cars.
Copy !req
1380. Police!
Copy !req
1381. Hands up!
Copy !req
1382. Police!
Copy !req
1383. Police!
Copy !req
1384. So that was Mrs. Lundegaard
on the floor in there.
Copy !req
1385. And I guess that was your
accomplice in the wood chipper.
Copy !req
1386. And those three people
in Brainerd.
Copy !req
1387. And for what?
Copy !req
1388. For a little bit of money.
Copy !req
1389. There's more to life than
a little money, you know?
Copy !req
1390. Don't you know that?
Copy !req
1391. And here you are.
Copy !req
1392. And it's a beautiful day.
Copy !req
1393. Well...
Copy !req
1394. I just don't understand it.
Copy !req
1395. Mr. Anderson?
Copy !req
1396. Who?
Copy !req
1397. Mr. Anderson, is this your
burgundy '98 out here?
Copy !req
1398. Just a sec.
Copy !req
1399. Could you open
the door, please?
Copy !req
1400. Yeah, yeah,
just a sec.
Copy !req
1401. Just a sec.
Copy !req
1402. Dale!
My leg!
Copy !req
1403. No!
Copy !req
1404. They announced it.
Copy !req
1405. They announced it?
Copy !req
1406. Yeah.
Copy !req
1407. So?
Copy !req
1408. Three-cent stamp.
Copy !req
1409. Your mallard?
Copy !req
1410. Yeah.
Copy !req
1411. That's terrific.
Copy !req
1412. It's just
a three-cent.
Copy !req
1413. It's terrific.
Copy !req
1414. Hautman's blue-winged
teal got the 29-cent.
Copy !req
1415. People don't much
use the three-cent.
Copy !req
1416. Oh, for Pete's...
Of course they do.
Copy !req
1417. Whenever they
raise the postage,
Copy !req
1418. people need
the little stamps.
Copy !req
1419. Yeah?
Copy !req
1420. When they're stuck with a
bunch of the old ones.
Copy !req
1421. Yeah.
Copy !req
1422. I guess.
Copy !req
1423. That's terrific. I'm
so proud of you, Norm.
Copy !req
1424. Heck, Norm, you know,
we're doing pretty good.
Copy !req
1425. I love you, Margie.
Copy !req
1426. I love you, Norm.
Copy !req
1427. Two more months.
Copy !req
1428. Two more months.
Copy !req
