City of Angels, here we are! My best birthday present ever!
My pleasure, little sister.
I wish we didn't have to go back to Santa Barbara so soon
but I've gotta register for college psychology classes before they close.
Wonder what it's like to live in a big city like this.
Well, you'll find out.

In a yacht and later, a mansion.

Look, we can't.
We're busy.
Okay?

Uh- uh, Grandma's sleeping.
She's not sleeping,
she's waiting for us to call her. We have to call her, okay?
Tsk. Okay, we'll tell her that we're safe and sound.
Right, come on, let's go.
Hey, I didn't mean to scare you.
You lost your car keys, I found 'em after you left.
Thanks.
Sure you don't want to go to that party?
Positive.
Enjoy your trip to the zoo tomorrow.
Thanks.
How did he get my keys? I never took them out of my purse.
Tsk. Oh, come on, you're being paranoid.
Well, maybe. Come on.
Come on, you, let's go.

Want me to take- - let me take one.
All right.
Oh, look, it's coming.
Hi. Hi, Mr. Elephant.
Hi.
Ooh, look how long his eyelashes are.
I wonder why he's there all by himself.
'Cause he's so big.
Yeah.
It must be fate- - we're always meeting like this.
God!
Don't you need an escort in the jungle?
Look, we don't wanna go anywhere with you. Just leave us alone, all right?
Maybe some other time, huh?
Yeah, I doubt it.
Come on.
That guy really gives me the creeps.
He's gone.
Yeah.
Look, let's take a few more pictures and get out of here.
Okay, but I have to go to the bathroom.
- Okay, I'll meet you by the giraffes. - Okay.
- All right. Hurry up. - I will.
Debbie...?
Oh, my God, Debbie!
Debbie!
Debbie!
- Move and I'll blow your head off! - Debbie!
Help!
Somebody!
Help me!
Debbie!
Debbie?
Debbie! Oh, my God.
Debbie!
Stop!
Oh, my God! Stop!
Stop!
Stop! Help! Debbie!
- She can ID us. - Hit it!
- Stop! - Go!
Somebody help! Oh, my God, stop!
Debbie!
Oh, my God, Debbie!
My sister, they kidnapped her!
Oh, my God. Oh, my God, Debbie.
You sure it was a California license plate?
- Positive. - But you didn't see the number.
It was too far away, Lieutenant.
And you don't recognize any of the suspects in these mugshots?
No. But I could identify the man and the woman if I see them.
What about the third suspect, driving the van?
I didn't see his face.
Hey, Bonnie, what about this photographer, this Tony character?
You saw him last night at the coffee shop
and then again today at the zoo.
Yeah, he was following us.
Was he alone when he talked to you and your sister?
Mm- hm. He wanted us to go to a party with him.
Did he say where the party was?
No, just that it was on a yacht and in a mansion somewhere.
Do you think he could've been driving the van?
I don't know.
But the driver of the van
had on a yellow windbreaker like Tony was wearing.
- But you didn't see his face. - But it had to be him, don't you think?
Okay, okay, all right, we'll handle it from here.
Francine, you and Claudia, get out on the streets
and see if you can hustle up some informants.
- Buster. - Yup?
Try the computers, see what you come up with.
Yeah.
All right, Bonnie, here's what we're gonna do.
We'll see if we find some suspects. We'll have you back, you ID them.
In the meantime, go back to Santa Barbara. We'll be in touch.
I'm not going anywhere without my sister.
Sir?
Excuse us.
The kidnappers know she saw them. We oughta put one of our guys on her.
What the hell's the matter with you? We don't have manpower for that.
Can't we make an exception?
McCarthy, are you trying to tell me how to do my job?
No, sir.
Good, take her over to Chang's,
have her make some composite drawings of the suspects. Okay?
- Yes, sir. - Good.
Bonnie, maybe you better go home to Santa Barbara, it's much safer.
No, Detective McCarthy,
I gotta find my sister and I'm not leaving without her.
Good. I want you to use some kinda silent emotion.
All right, look real good by the pool here.
Hand in the water a little bit. Move around. That's nice, it's nice.
Looking good, Keep your tops on for the scene.
All right, let's get ready now. Roll sound.
Speed.
Come on, get the bimbo outta here.
- Where am I? - Wonderland, sweetheart, come on.
