- This is Pete. - Yeah?
We lost him.
He's your brother, Ross. If you can't find him, we have people who will.
And you're paying for the contract.
Excuse me. Have you got a message for Mr. Ross?
What room, sir?
I'm not a guest.
- I'll check. - Thanks.
- That's Johnny Ross. - Yes, sir.
Sorry, sir, nothing.
Nothing?
- Are you sure? - I'm sure, sir.
Okay, thanks.
Thank you.
Yes, I'm sure it was him.
Sunshine Cab, 6912.
- Would you pull up? I want to make a call. - Right.
Yeah?
Delgetti.
- What is it? - Work.
Frank, let me in, will you?
What time did you get to bed this morning, Frank?
About 5.
"Mumps vaccine on the market."
"The government authorized yesterday..."
"...what officials term the first clearly effective vaccine to prevent mumps."
"...Announced it has granted a license for the vaccine..."
"at 12:45, Wednesday..."
Why don't you just relax, have your orange juice, and shut up, Delgetti?
Let's go, Frank.
Lt. Bullitt to see you, Mr. Chalmers.
Conditions in our local politics here.
It was purely unintentional, I assure you.
It wasn't that I was so well-informed, it was just that he was so ill-informed.
Would you excuse me for a moment, please?
What do you like about...?
In Orinda, we have all this beautiful dry sunshine. Absolutely perfect for roses.
I do all my own work. You should see my hands from pruning.
Hello. Lieutenant, how are you?
Thanks for coming over. The name is Frank, isn't it?
- That's right. - Please call me Walter.
I have an important job for you. Capt. Bennet suggested that you take it.
As you know, there is a senate subcommittee hearing here Monday.
I have a star witness who needs protection.
Sam said that you were the man for the job.
And I can't find a flaw in that statement.
Protection from who?
The Organization.
His name is Ross. Johnny Ross from Chicago.
Once and for all, the top men in law enforcement are united.
We're going to expose the Organization.
I read your speech. Why San Francisco?
Ross is safer here. That's your province.
Keeping him out of reach for 40 hours.
Where?
The Hotel Daniels. 226 Embarcadero Road. Room 634.
He's there now, expecting you.
Now that you know where my house is...
...I hope that we'll get to see a lot more of each other.
Particularly in view of the investigation.
A senatorial hearing has a way of...
...catapulting everyone involved into the public eye...
...with a subsequent effect on one's career.
It will be a pleasure to have you along.
Have him in court on Monday, Frank.
- What was that all about? - Pals.
You and Chalmers? That's a lot of juice.
Hotel Daniels, 226 Embarcadero Road.
State's evidence witness, we're babysitting. Let's go.
- You got any coffee? - Yeah.
- Yeah, who is it? - Police.
The roof and the exits.
Mr. Chalmers said you'd be here by 5: 00. He guaranteed me that.
Sorry, we got held up in traffic.
Got any firearms?
No, man, I got nothing on me. Just my wallet, cigarette lighter.
Want to check me out yourself?
No, that's not necessary. Put that stuff on the bed, will you, please?
How did you get here from Chicago?
I flew.
Sure none of the boys were on the plane with you, or saw you get on?
How would I know? I wouldn't know.
Why did you pick this room to hole up?
I didn't pick it. Chalmers picked it.
Why?
Stay away from those windows. That's why.
Say, look...
Sit down and relax, Ross. It's a long wait until Monday morning.
We'd better get a fix on some food.
- What? - Some food.
I know Chalmers wants you to be happy. We'll do the best we can.
Dad, it's for you.
Listen, you're not going. We're going to a movie.
Hold it down. Don't be too late.
- Hello. - Hello. Captain?
- Frank? - We'll see you later, Dad.
I've seen Chalmers.
- What do you know about Ross? - Chicago. It could be very big.
He had access to all the records. He ran the wire services with his brother, Pete.
Did Chalmers ask for me?
Do you happen to know why?
Yes, I know why. He's grooming himself for public office.
You make good copy. They love you in the papers, Frank.
I see.
Okay. So long, Sam.
Say, who were you talking to about me on that telephone?
Mr. Chalmers said this was just between me and him.
Me and him, man, that's all.
Delgetti will take the first shift, Stanton at 12: 00. I'll take the third.
All you got to worry about is staying away from the windows.
Especially at night. You call me before you leave.
Excuse me.
Fire escape and the freeway.
- Bad news, right? - Right. Want me to stay?
No. Go on home to your wife.
- What shift? - Second.
If we work on the weekend, we get two days off?
So long.
- Hi. - Hi.
Is this the new fountain?
Fountain? All the client can afford is a leaky faucet.
I thought that money didn't matter to artists.
It costs money to have a soul.
"Friction loss of water in feet per hundred feet. Length of pipe..."
"Formula using constant one-hundred size of standard pipe in inches."
I want to use 600 gallons of water per minute.
Now, what's the velocity per second of a 5-inch pipe?
Look to the extreme right.
Now go down the figures until you find 600.
Got it.
Now go across until you find the 5-inch-pipe column.
- What does it say? - 9.8.
Now I want the loss in feet.
Feet?
Well?
I lost my place. Nobody's perfect.
- May I use your phone, please? - Good evening. It's right this way.
- Here you go. - Thank you.
- Yeah? - Del?
Coffee Cantata. 931-0770.
- 931-0770. - Right.
If a Sgt. Delgetti calls me, would you please let me know right away?
- I certainly will. - Thank you.
- Yes? - Del. I'm coming off now.
- Everything okay? - Yeah, sure.
Hold it down, will you?
I'm sorry.
- Anything for Stanton? - No, I'll see you tomorrow.
Who was it?
Something exciting?
Go to sleep.
Meaning you won't tell me anything.
It's not for you, baby.
Anything you do is part of me.
Front desk. Two gentlemen. Shall I send them up?
- What are their names? - Hold on a minute.
Mr. Chalmers and a friend.
Listen, tell them to wait. And give me 421-7596.
- Frank? - Yeah.
Chalmers is downstairs with another man. They want to come up.
Chalmers, at 1:00 a.m.? Don't let them in. I'll be there in five minutes.
All right.
Please, away from the door.
Here are the latest baseball scores, just in.
In the National League, San Francisco Giants...
...beat the Dodgers in both ends of a double-header.
A 2-0 shutout in the twilighter, and a 4-1 win in the nightcap.
No, wait.
Now look.
He told me...
Holy mackerel!
- Who is it? - Ross. Two guys got him with a shotgun.
And Stanton?
They got him in the leg. They're bringing him down.
Stick with Ross. Barney.
As soon as the lab men get out of 634, seal it.
- But seal it, Barney. - Yes, sir.
- How bad? - Bad. He's got a bleeder.
The door is not open.
Somebody screwed up. The door's not open.
Somebody put the bed in.
I know you're hurting...
...but I've got to know now.
The two men. Do you remember anything?
Caucasian.
The one who fired, about 5' 10". White hair.
Gun, Winchester pump.
All I remember. Came in so fast.
Chain was off. He unlocked the door.
Who unlocked it?
Ross. Like he was expecting someone.
How is my leg?
Hold on, Carl, we'll be there in a couple of minutes.
Get out of the way.
To the right.
Let's go.
Scissors, Jones.
Somebody get the blood pressure.
Oxygen.
Can I have an ABD pad?
No comments yet. Be the first to leave one.
