Night Man

Mr. McDermott? Yeah.

Hey. What do you... What do you think you're...

Special Agent Barton, Justice Department.

Please step into the car, sir.

You're not Secretary Laughton.

I'm here to determine whether you're a crackpot or a patriot.

Let's vacate the area, gentlemen.

You've made accusations against some very powerful people.

Our evidence is ironclad.

What about the prototype weapons

you and the others have intercepted?

Where are they now?

They're where they won't fall into the hands of our country's enemies.

Pull over, Agent.

Why, why are we stopping here?

You want this conspiracy crushed, the first thing that's needed

is your signature on a transcript of what you've told us.

Is everything ready?

Printing out the last page now, sir.

This is an account of our meeting.

I'd like you to sign it on the last page, please.

I can hardly see where. That's okay.

How soon can I meet the secretary?

He'll be in tomorrow.

By the way, what are the names of the others

that are in this with you?

Oh, I, I can't tell you that.

Mr. McDermott,

you're speaking to an officer of the Justice Department.

I'm... I'm sorry.

So am I.

Please step out of the car, sir.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

No, no!

Now I'll give you to ten to give me the location of the prototype weapons

and the names of the other thieves.

One!

We aren't thieves!

We kept the weapons from being illegally shipped to our enemies!

We fully intend to turn them over to Secretary Laughton!

Three. No!

You can't do this! You're a federal agent!

Take off his shoes.

Seven.

No, no, no! Eight.

Nine! All right, I'll tell you!

Raleigh Jordan,

Jason Weems, and Roland Yates!

The location of the prototype weapons.

I don't know! I swear it!

All right, okay, look, they're with, they're with the others.

We did it purposely to protect them.

I'm sure you did.

Will you let me go now?

Certainly. Let him go.

Let's finish up here.

Put this in there.

All right, let's go.

Right over there.

All right, let's go.

Hey, Charlie.

Frank. What are you doing here?

I picked this call up from my scanner.

So they think it's suicide, huh?

Nothing we found says suicide.

We're just pulling him out right now.

Still drifting.

Come on, everybody, clear back.

Let the medical examiner through.

Well, they indicated suicide on the scanner.

Besides, through the years, you know, here,

cargo porters were the most I've seen washed ashore

because of that south-westerly current from the bridge.

Half the time.

The other half of the time the bodies go straight out to sea.

Well, last night we had a south-westerly, Charlie.

Besides, you notice, he's not wearing any shoes.

I went up to the bridge after I heard the police scanner.

I happened to find these up there.

Frank, you're not a cop anymore.

Yeah, well... No offense.

When are you gonna get out of our hair and let us do our job?

Well, 'cause of the homeless, you know,

I figured these wouldn't last long, so I grabbed them.

Besides, you might take a look.

There's a note inside one of them.

I was very careful not to smudge any possible prints, Charlie.

Let me guess, a suicide note.

I think it was meant to look like a suicide note.

But you'll see it was typed with a computer paper, printed out,

but then he signed it on a soft surface.

So?

Well, most printers and computers sit on hard surfaces.

I think it's odd he wouldn't have taken it out of the machine

and signed it right there.

It seems odd to jump from a bridge, but there's the body, Frank.

Mmm, it's a little thing, but you might want to look into it.

Anything else?

No, I think that covers it.

Have a nice day, Charlie.

Thanks, Frank.

Danny, take this to the lab.

What's it? Uh...

Warn 'em. You know, it might be fake.

How do you know that?

Don't ask.

One of the brightest stars in music just came into town

at the invitation of Millennium 21.

But it all began for her right here in the House of Soul.

Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Carla Day.

[SOMEONE TO WATCH OVER ME PLAYING]

* There's a somebody I'm longing to see

* I hope that he

* Turns out to be

* Someone who'll watch

* Over me

It always hurts the most

when the one who burned you the worst comes back

with a...

fresh load of matches.

* Who's lost in the wood

* I know I could

* Be real good

Oh, and by the way, your father's here,

taking up a booth.

* Although he may not...

Hey, Dad. Hey.

You should never have let that one get away.

No chance you two might...

Didn't you once tell me that you could never go back?

You picked a hell of a time to start listening to me.

Yeah, I ran into Charlie Dann today.

Yeah, he tells me the academy still needs a martial arts instructor.

Dad, Dad.

Johnny, come on, you know you got a gift for it.

Even Charlie said so.

I like what I do.

Yeah, well...

I like music as well as the next guy, you know.

Not a life.

So you just happened to run into Charlie.

Yeah, well, I had some information

that could help him on a case he's working on.

Dad.

You're not a cop anymore.

I trained Charlie.

He still appreciates my help, he really does.

Yeah. Hey, I gotta get back out there.

Enjoy the show.

Yeah.

I'll see you later. Yep. Yeah.

* Someone who will watch

* Over me

It's him.

Then it was a trap, and we walked right into it.

McDermott walked into it.

He insisted on taking that meeting alone.

This is his own fault.

That's cold.

No, he's cold.

Let's get out of here.

We'll be on the ground

in approximately 20 minutes, Mr. Secretary.

Can I get you anything before we land?

Get me a secure line, please.

Raleigh Jordan.

Right now, I'm in the air.

Mr. Secretary, where are you? What happened to the meeting?

What are you talking about?

Someone arranged a meeting in your name.

McDermott went to it, now he's dead.

God. I knew nothing about it.

Have you still got the proof?

We got it. And we intercepted three other prototype weapons systems

just as they were about to be illegally transshipped.

You bring me the proof or you bring me the weapons system,

and I promise you that I'll move on it immediately.

Mr. Secretary, after what just happened,

we'd like our next meeting to be in a public place.

Where do you suggest?

The opening of Millennium 21 tomorrow.

There'll be a lot of people, a lot of press,

lots of protection.

The Mayor is hoping the weather holds out

as he hosts today's opening of Millennium 21,

the world's largest communications conference,

that brings together some of the greatest minds on the planet.

The VIPs will be given a tour of the city aboard a special cable car,

entertained by saxophone sensation, Johnny Domino.

Thank you, sir. Enjoy yourselves.

Good evening.

Excuse me.

Do you have an envelope for Raleigh Jordan?

Thank you.

Young black man just picked up the credentials

and he's heading your way.

Make no attempt to stop him.

Thank you, sir. Thank you. Enjoy yourselves.

Thank you.

Identification? Thank you. Enjoy yourselves.
