Into the Night (1985) Movie Script
[ "Into the Night"
Performed By B. B. King ]
Caught in a quick sand
and I'm startin' to sink
So tired of strugglin' that
my mind can barely think
I don't know
where I'm goin'
Lord, I don't know
what I'm gonna do
My fuel supply is finished
There ain't nothin 'left
to burn
I need someone to help me
But I don't know
which way to turn
I know I don't have much
of a choice
I'll go out of my mind
Or into the night
I'm rollin' and tumblin'
Spinnin' end over end
Got to have
some peace and quiet
So I can find myself again
Still if you ask me
what's the matter
I just don't know
what to say
There's people all around me
but I feel so alone
I guess they'd like
to help me
But I have to do it
on my own
I know I don't have much
of a choice
I'll go out of my mind
Or into the night
Into the night
Do you want some coffee?
Just a minute.
What did you say?
Do you want me to make you some coffee?
No. No, thanks.
Aren't you hungry?
Oh, yeah, sure.
What's the matter, Ed?
Why aren't you sleeping?
I don't know.
Well, what can I do?
Just love me, okay?
Oh, that's Stan.
What is it?
Am I doing something wrong?
- No, of course not.
- Well, what is it?
I don't know.
Oh, we better go.
Herb's probably
going berserk by now.
- Herb can wait.
- I gotta go.
Have a nice day.
"Have a nice day"?
KABC 79
Los Angeles
It's the Ken and Bob Company.
Loman and Barkley
I'm moving! I'm moving!
In the morning
Hear how good
Our country sounds
KLAC
Rick Dees in the morning
KIIS-FM
KOST- 103. Good morning.
I'm David K. Duncan.
Commander Chuck Street
with traffic. How's it going?
we've got a slowdown on that
south bound Pasadena freeway.
This is the Dave Hull program
on KRLA,
but we are gonna
interrupt the show now
for this special announce--
Don't you want to hear
what happened?
No, not really.
If it's important, I guess
they'll let us know anyway.
Ah, a smilel
Okay, now we're
gettin' somewhere.
All right, Mr. No-Sleep,
I have something for you.
What's three miles long
and has an I.Q of 165?
A Saint Patrick's Day parade.
Actually,
it's a Cinco de Mayo parade.
I can't sleep anymore,
Herb.
Are you gonna be all right?
I don't wantyou nodding off
at the wheel.
No, no, I'm fine.
We can switch.
I'm fine. I'm okay.
I don't know.
I don't know.
My job is a dead end.
I feel weird,
like I'm from another
planet or something.
Ellen kissed me on the top
of my head this morning
and said, "Have a nice day. "
- Can you believe that?
- What's wrong with that?
Bank tellers say,
"Have a nice day."
The cashier at the supermarket
says, "Have a nice day."
I just think that somehow
yourwife should say something
better than, "Have a nice day."
You're losing your mind, Ed.
How long have you had insomnia?
My last good night's sleep?
Yeah, the full eight hours.
Seems like... 1980.
Yeah, the summer of 1980.
You're in bed. You can't sleep.
I don't see the problem.
You go to the airport,
catch the midnight flight
to Las Vegas.
Nobody sleeps there.
Very funny, Herb.
No, listen, I'm serious.
You need some action.
I'm not a gambler.
Don't gamble.
Have a few drinks.
See a show.
Get loose.
Get laid.
Oh, wonderful.
I'm sure Ellen would love it.
You'll be home
before she wakes up.
Sex isn't the problem.
When was the last time
you fucked your wife?
You're a classy guy, Herb.
Up in Vegas, there's
a beautiful, young girl
named Melissa.
She will do anything
you want for $200 an hour.
Two hundred dollars?
Anything you want.
Anything.
For example?
if you want,
she'll dress up
like Santa Claus.
Would she bring me a pony?
You're having trouble
with this concept.
I'm talking about the universe
of infinite possibility.
No such thing.
The only limits are
money and imagination.
Sorry.
I'm a little short on both.
Hello, Fielding.
How much would I have to pay one
of these women for sympathy?
Sympathy?
Very kinky, Ed.
I'll see you at lunch.
Ed Okin.
They're claiming we've got
a synchronization problem.
Naturally, this has nothing
to do with their god-awful
carrier tracking loop.
They want full tolerance
checks on all buggers,
sensors and corresponding
transducers.
Scanners seem to check out.
Yeah, but that's on the uplink.
The problem is downlink.
Ed, have you got
the signal-to-noise ratio
on the downlink?
Ed?
Yeah?
- have you got it?
- What's that?
Yep, we're having
synchronization problems.
I need the signal-to-noise ratio
on the downlink.
Signal-to-noise.
Right. Um, mm-hmm.
- Right.
- I've got it here.
I was just, uh--
Uh... signal-to-noise,
signal-to-noise.
- Signal-to-noise: 5.3 db.
- Five point three?
What modulation scheme?
- Uh, B.P.S.k.
- "B.P.S.k."?
Isn't that correct?
we switched
to Q.P.S.K. two weeks ago.
Q.P.S.K.?
It was incredible.
I can't tell you
how I felt.
It was incredible.
I can't tell you
how I felt.
I wish I'd seen it.
The whole place was excited.
I couldn't talk my wife
out of going to the orchid show.
Everyone was there.
- if you missed it,
you can see it on cable.
- His family was there.
Listen, I'm gonna go home
and try to take a nap.
If I don't come back,
can you get another ride?
Sure. Absolutely.
Go home and get some sleep.
Yes.

There was a big face.

N-N-Nothing happened.

Mm-hmm.

You mind if I ask

Diana.
Like Princess Diana.
Is thatyour boat?
No, it belongs
to a friend.
I'll be just a second, okay?
Larry?
Anyone aboard?
Diana.
You're not supposed to come here anymore.
Larry, I'm sort of in trouble.
Let me just stay here
tonight, okay?
Jackwon't know anything
about it. I promise.
You no longer have
the use of this boat.
I must still have
some clothes on board.
Let me shower and change.
Can I at least use the phone,
please, Larry?
The man says
you no longer exist.
I'm in trouble, Larry.
You're a pig, Larry.
Good night, Diana.
Is everything okay?
Could you take me to Hollywood?
Just a ride to Hollywood, okay?
I've got nowhere else to go.
Now you take offyour shirt.
Now take off your pants.
- Would you walk me up?
- You can't leave it there.
Everybody parks in the alley.
It's all right.
- They'll towyou away.
- Don't worry about it.
Hey!
Come in.
No, I 'd better
be going.
No.
No, not yet.
J ust for a minute?
No, I've gotta...
go get some sleep.
Just let me get
the lights on, okay?
I'm sorry.
I guess I'm still just
a little bit freaked out.
Make yourself at home.
Cute.
Is this your apartment?
Uh, well, no. Actually,
it's my brother's place.
I'm staying here temporarily.
Did you check
the refrigerator?
No, no, no.
I, uh--
I've got to be...
shoving off.
No, wait.
Please.
I really don't want
to be alone.
Let me make a call,
get myself organized.
- Okay.
- Thanks.
Ooh
Sugarpie, honeybunch
You know that I loveyou
Oh, fuck it.

And I kissed it
a thousand times
Don't go away.
I 'l I be right out.
Yes.
Well, it's an emergency.
Do you know where
she can be reached?
Oh, just a second.
Hello.
Christie.
Di, where have you been?
What's happening?
Uh, listen,
I'm kind of in the middle
ofa real bad situation.
Me too.
We're gonna be out here
all night.
Can I come over?
Now?
Let me talk to Bud.
Chris, look,
I need a friend.
It's serious.
Yeah, come on over.
I'll leave a drive-on for you.
Thanks.
Open the fuckin' door!
Open up, you bitch!
Friend of yours?
who's in there?
Diana!
Who's this?
Looks like a narc.
- He's a friend.
- She makes friends so easily.
What is your problem?
Hey! I work for my money,
andso does he.
Nobody gives me a fuckin' thing,
and I pay my bills!
- Are you her brother?
- Yeah. So what?
- What happened to my clothes?
- I tried to be careful.
Look, she had
a terrible experience--
She is a terrible
experience!
You fly off to Europe
likeyou're hot shit!
You promise--
You promise, but you
don't pay the rent.
They finally
turned the phone off!.
Do you know how much
I had to come up with?
I had to borrow money from Don
to pay the fuckin' rent!
Fine! I'llpay you back!
No problem!
Right, no problem.
Don moved in.
You're movin' out!
- Charlie, lighten up!
- You've been gone three weeks!
You didn't even call me!
Okay, fine!
Give me back my car keys.
I rented it to Artie.
Artie?
You get it back right now.
He drove it up
to San Francisco.
That is a $55,000 car, Charlie.
Jack gave it toyou.
It didn't cost you anything.
- Oh, Charlie.
- You can't just kick her out on the street.
She's always got you.
we're going out.
Don't be here when I get back.
Elvis wouldn't
do what you're doing!
And I knew him!
You didn't know him.
You fucked him maybe,
but you didn't know him!
- You drive a beige Toyota?
- Yes.
I thought so.
The cops towed it away.
Can't be there.
The police towed it?
You shouldn't have
parked there.
Perfect.
Where you going?
To get a taxi.
I've had enough excitement
for one night.
No, this is Los Angeles.
There aren't any taxis.
I'll call one.
I'll call one for you too.
There isn't time.
I'm in a lot of trouble.
No, I'm in trouble now.
It was my car they towed away.
I can get a car.
They could
still be after me.
Who could
still be after you?
Do you know these guys?
No!Just believe me.
I need to get some place...
where I can straighten
this whole thing out.
I have to find my car.
Please?
Please stay with me
a little longer?
I don't want
to go out alone.
This is too weird for me.
Whatever you want.
What do you want?
I'll pay you.
I'm too tired for all this.
I don't need any more shit
in my life right now.
I'm sorry.
They're here.
Not on foot.
You say you can get a car?
Yes.
Sure your brother
won't mind?
Fuck him.
What are you doing?
You can come out now.
Who are those men?
I don't know
who they are exactly.
What does that mean?
I was in Europe,
and I brought something back.
That's what they want.
Somehow they found out.
Drugs?
No!
I swear to God.
I'm getting out.
This is too strange.
No, listen to me.
I have something they want.
It's worth
a great deal of money.
- You want a date?
- What?
Do you want to party?
No!
You want any ludes?
Coke? Hash?
Acid? Grass?
No, Thank you.
No?
All right, no sweat.
Call me.
I don't know who those men are.
if you wanna get out, go ahead.
Get back,
everybody!
Let me go!
I want to see Detective
kalichek, and I mean now!
And... cut!
Did you like that one?
That was fine.
David!
I can make him
more psychotic.
It was fine.
David!
Do they need all
these people just
to film a TV show?
Well, I appreciate
all your help, Ed.
I'll get you to the phone,
and you can call a taxi.
I'm fine now. Thanks, really.
Diana, where have you been?
God!
Do you believe this?
Look at this.
I got three more lines.
"Don't, please, don't"--
I've gotta talk toyou.
Sure.
Oh, David.
Yeah?
How much longer?
Twenty minutes, a half.
Go get warm. All right.
Okay.
Excuse me.
Oh, uh, Chris,
this is Ed.
Hi.
Hello.
Let's go to my motor home.
Uh, you should find a phone
somewhere around here.
Very funny.
Excuse me.
Oh... I'm fine.
Can I helpyou?
No, thanks.
Amazing stuff.
What are you doing here?
I'm waiting for somebody.
She's in there.
You know Christie?
No, no, not really.
We just met.
Uh-huh. Excuse me.
Bud?
Yeah?
For the L.A. Times.
This or this?
They're both shit.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Christie--
Hi, Di.
Hi, Bud.
Christie, who's the clown
hanging around in front
of your trailer?
Oh, he's--
He's with me, Bud.
Oh, fine.
Christie,
remember to act scared.
This guy has a gun toyour head.
- I know the feeling.
- What?
Oh, nothing.
You look beautiful, honey.
Oh, thanks, Bud.
Good to seeyou, Di.
You want a stick of gum?
No, thanks.
You won't even ask him?
I'd like to help you,
but it's Bud's house.
You live there too.
Christie?
We're all ready for you.
- Okay, I'll be right there.
- Okay.
So will you hold on
to these for me?
Sure.
What is that?
It's a hidden pocket.
- Thanks.
- For what?
- Is there a phone I can use?
- Use the one in Bud's office.
He's on the set right now.
I don't think he'll mind.
This won't take long.
Hello.
I'm sorry,
I must speak to Jack.
would you tell him
it's Diana?
Miss Diana,
whoever you are--
I'm a friend of Jack's.
I don't give a good goddamn!
if you call here again--
Whoever you are,
you better not hang up
on me this time.
This is his wife.
Don't call back ever!
His wife.
What's she doing there?
His wife?
She probably lives there.
Not for years.
They barely speak.
Bizarre.
Go ahead.
I'm sorry, you folks are
gonna have to leave now.
- We're friends of Bud Herman's.
- Mr. Herman sent me over.
He wants you to leave now.
Fine.
We're going.
What about my cab?
I'll take you to your car.
Let's just
get out of here.
do you know where downtown
they take the cars?
I've gotta get ahold
of Hamid. Shit.
do you know where to go?
No, I don't know.
I don't know what I'm doing.
We're going to find my car.
Would you help me, please?
Just a little more.
No! I've gotta go home.
No more.
I've got problems
of my own to deal with.
How do you think I feel?
You're all I've got.
Well, that's hard
to believe.
You're tellin' me.
if you want any more
help from me, I wanna
know what's going on.
You wanna know
what's going on?
Yes.
All right.
Have a seat.
Okay.
They killed him.
- killed who?
- Hasi.
"Hasi"?
In the parking lot.
I-- I was with him.
He was waiting for me.
The stones were his.
- We have to get the police.
- No, I can't. I smuggled them in.
- What stones?
- Six perfect emeralds.
They're priceless.
They killed this guy
for six emeralds?
How'd you get involved in all this?
The stones are from the scepter
of an ancient Persian king.
Remember when the Shah fell
and the royal family fled Iran?
The treasury was looted.
Somebody got away with
a good part ofthe crown jewels.
Hasi was "somebody's" cousin.
Um... he was gonna
give me $25,000.
So I went to Zurich.
I went to a vault.
Everything went fine.
He met me at the airport.
- Who killed Hasi?
- They wanted the stones.
If I lose the stones,
I'm dead for sure.
The police can't help me.
I'm one of the bad guys.
Who were those men
chasing you at the airport?
I don't know.
I've got to make some kind
of deal with them.
- With who?
- That's what I have to find out.
I know they're all Iranians
or Persians or something. I--
If they're on visas,
they don't want trouble.
Well, this is kind
of outside my field.
Oh, Christ.
I can't get ahold of Jack.
He would help me.
- Who's Jack?
- He's a friend of mine.
- Is he involved in this?
-Jack? No!
Jack doesn't need any more money.
I guess he doesn't
need me anymore either.
Maybe if you explained
to the police that you
were doing a job--
That I'm a smuggler?
No.
Okay, so now what?
I know someone else
who could help me.
Would you help me
get to him?
It's my only way out of this.
No.
You did it before
at the airport.
I'm not sure what I did
at the airport.
You saved my life.
They don't know who you are.
Right now they don't know
where I am.
Just stay with me
for a little while longer.
How do you know
you can trust me?
Because I know men.
No, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
What am I doing here?
This is insane.
I'd do it myself,
but I don't know who's there.
I promise I won't ask
anything else.
This is awfully good, sir.
I think you can feel
very confident with that.
We'll just raise
the shoulder a little,
put a tuck in there. Good.
Excuse me, dear.
We've all got homes to go to.
This is the phone number...
to the pay phone
in ladies' room.
Give it only to Hamid.
It's just
straight up Rodeo?
Yeah.
Oh! Wait.
Uh, it's private.
You'll have to show this
at the door.
"Jack Caper"?
- Is he the one with the wife?
- Yeah, the one I can't reach.
- Was that his boat?
- Yes.
Nowgo on.
Okay.
After I talk to Hamid, I'll--
I'll pickyou up right here
in front of Tiffany's.
Good. Oh, here's the...
ticket for the car.
Okay.
You okay?
Yeah,
I'm just tired.
Lucille
I takeyou in my arms
and everything's all right
Lucille
when I have the blues
I love to hold you tight

I'm just trying
to help somebody.
Listen,
I don't need this shit.
Tell Mr. Moradi
that one ofhis friends
is in deep trouble.
I'm going now.
Hold on.
I'll go get him.
Good evening.
Hi.
Good night.
Can you tell me
how did this happen?
I don't know. Right now
she's waiting for your call
at this number.
All I know is
she needs your help.
Have I ever lied toyou?
Okay, but can we talk
about it?
Listen, Bernie,
I'll call you back.
Hamid?
Just a moment, Diana.
No! Don't!
Wait!
Don't shoot!
You're verygood.
You're reallyvery good.
I'm amazed
we've not met before.
I beg your pardon?
I've been watching you
since you left Caper's yacht.
Very impressive.
I am?
Stop performing now, Ed.
If that's your name.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Okay. I represent
Monsieur Melville,
and I can assure you
that he can be...
far more reasonable
than the SAVAk.
"The SAVAk"?
The Shah's Secret Police.
Death Squad.
Iranian Gestapo.
Shaheen's boys.
"Shaheen's boys"?
I like you, Ed.
I do like you.
You're very good.
The stones.
What?
Where are the stones?
I can't help you.
We do understand
each other, don't we?
Oh... I don't know.
Very good.
Very impressive.
I'm sure
we'll chat again.
Can I help you, sir?
I think you just did.
- are you a guest at the hotel?
- No.
I'm waiting for someone
to pick me up.
- Who would that be?
- Uh... m-mywife.
are you aware, sir,
that it's almost 3:30
in the morning?
Really?
No, is it that late?
May I see
some identification?
Is my husband giving you
any trouble, Officers?
Diana, this guy
put a gun in my mouth.
- are you sure he was English?
- You've never heard
ofthis Frenchman?
I don't know a Frenchman.
Uh-huh.
Where are the stones?
The stones are safe.
It's all right.
The stones are safe.
What about us? Are we safe?
Hamid said he'd take care
of everything.
Hi,Jimmy.
Hey, beautiful lady.
What's happening?
Mr. Moradi in?
- Yeah.
The man's expecting you.
- I'll be right up.
Well, okay.
Good luck.
Oh, Ed, I don't know
what to say.
It's been, uh...
an experience.
I can't even giveyou a number.
I don't know where I'll be.
Yeah, well, it's probably
better the less I know.
Yeah.
Don't say a word to anyone.
Nobody would believe it anyway.
I've, uh, got some cash.
Swiss francs.
It's not that much.
Oh, no, no, no.
No, really, take it.
No, absolutely not.
Be careful, okay?
Good-bye, Ed.
Think I can get a cab
at this hour?
I hope she'll be okay.
Something wrong?
Yeah, I forgot
to give her something.
You can leave it with me.
No, I think I should
give it to her myself.
Thank you.
Come on.
Hello?
whydon't you
hire yoursel fa keeper?
Hello?
Is anybody home?
I will take care ofthe girl,
andyou will take wilbur
back to the castle.
- Understand?
- Yes, Master.
Anybody home?
Sandra?
So, we meet again,
Count Dracula.
Dracula?
Yes, that's who
he says you are.
Oh, my costume perhaps.
No. He thinks
you're the real thing.
Uh-huh.
Right out of MacDougal's
House of Horrors.
what an odd
hallucination.
The human mind
is often inflamed
with strange complexes.
I suggest you consult
your physician,
Mr. Talbert.
Take him along
with you, please.
So there you are.
I'm glad to see
you've recovered.
I didn't expect
to see you here, Doctor.
Sandra insisted I come.
No!
No!
No!
Now, where'dhe go?
Joan? wilbur?
No!
There he is.
wilbur, have you seenJoan?
No.
Joan!
Diana?
Joan,Joan, come on.
we gotta get outta here!
Please, give me a little ether.
You won't need it.
You won't feel a thing.
Oh, my God.
Not a sound.
Oh, boy, am I glad to see you.
Get me offhere.
what are you lookin'
out the window for?
Is somebody else
comin'after me?
Let's not do anything rash, Ed.
You son of a bitch!
Let go of my hand, Ed.
It's all right!
He's a nice dog!
Pete Ellis Dodge
Long Beach Freeway
Firestone Exit
Southgate
Hi, I'm Pete Ellis, the Dodge
dealer. You know, there's only
one way to sell used cars.
Howabout this?
For3,995, an '81 Impala wagon.
Pete Ellis Dodge is known
for vans and van conversions.
Over 1 50 new and used in stock,
like this '79 Chevy van.
Where are we goi ng?
Away from here!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Stop!
Stop!
Help! Help!
Oh!
what's the matter
with you people? Crazy?
Fuck this!
- What are you doing?
- Shut up! Be quiet!
Get the fuckoutta my cab!
Thanks, Amy.
Could we have some
more coffee, please?
Sure.
This works, huh?
Well, it always has.
You're right.
I feel better.
I think I'll need two.
What are we gonna do?
Go to the police.
Thank you.
And tell them what?
How would you explain
whatyou were doing
up in Hamid's penthouse?
I was worried about you.
Some woman who jumps
into your car at the airport?
That's the truth.
Well, the truth
will put me in jail.
We should try
to see Jack.
Jack Caper?
Yes, the one
with the boat.
The one with the wife?
He's a very rich man.
I was his mistress.
I, um, I was modeling
and, uh,
t-trying to, you know,
make it as an actress.
Mostly, I hung out a lot.
I-I metJack at a party.
we went to Europe together
for fun, and it just
sort of evolved.
He gave me an apartment
in Westwood, and, um,
credit cards, my Porsche.
It was easy. It was nice.
- How long?
- Five years.
Five years?
You must have been 16.
I'm not as young as I look.
About six months ago,
I get this call from his lawyer.
I had to move out.
My credit cards were canceled.
He let me keep the Porsche.
- What happened?
- I don't know.
He won't talk to me.
What aboutyou?
What do you do?
I work
for Communtronics.
A recording studio?
I'm an aerospace engineer.
Really?
Mm-hmm.
That sounds fascinating.
Does it really?
Well, yeah, sort of.
What wereyou doing
at the airport?
- It's kind ofhard to explain.
- Try me.
I can't sleep.
Soyou went to the airport?
My life isn't working out
somehow.
Soyou went to the airport?
My wife is unfaithful to me.
Oh. Your wife's
having an affair.
That makes it sound romantic.
- Well, maybe it is.
- Thank you.
- Well, maybe it is.
- Thank you.
Sorry.
Well?
Let's make it
on the beach.
Bud, it's too cold.
It's cold, my ass.
I'll buy you a new coat.
Get outta here.
Hi, Moe. Hi, Larry.
Hi, Curly.
I thought you were gonna
feed the birds.
You said you'd feed them.
Carlotta was supposed to,
but she's offthis week.
You've got to feed the birds.
Don't make me
feed the birds.
I'm afraid of them.
You're afraid of everything.
They're too loud, Bud.
They're loud
because they're hungry.
Ooh.
I feel stupid
in this outfit.
You may feel stupid,
but you look sensational.
Do I have to wear
the dumb sash?
Oblige me.
I'm gonna put this on video.
Mmm.
Quiet, Moe!
It's 7:30 in the morning,
for chrissake.
Who the hell are you?
Won't you come in?
Holy shit.
Charlie?
Oh, God,
I hope Charlie's all right.
- Where's my brother?
- Your brother is well.
- Where is he?
- He's not here. He fled.
Now, if you'll come
with us.
- Do we have a choice?
- Very droll. Very amusing.
Hey, Diane, come here!
Help! Help!
We better call the police!
Colin Morris
was a superb man.
He told me that
you were also very good.
Colin Morris?
The Englishman?
- Yes, the Englishman.
- He worked for you?
Colin was my employee, yes.
What was your name, sir?
When I give you the stones,
you will let us go?
I hardly think so.
I'll need you
to appease Shaheen.
She'll want blood.
Yours will do.
if you're not gonna let us go,
why should I help you?
You're fond of Ed, yes?
do you have any idea what
theywere looking for?
No!
You never
saw these guys--
I told you five times!
I don't know what
they were after!
Jesus Christ!
Sir, this woman
says she came...
- to pick up a coat
from Mrs. Herman.
- We're not married!
Bud, what happened?
- Where's Christie?
- She's not here. Okay, Diana?
You a friendofMr. Herman's?
Uh, what's going on?
I just came here
to pick up my coat.
- What coat?
- My, uh, my big down coat.
I loaned it to Christie.
She told me to pick it up today.
- There it is over there.
- Will you get her out of here?
Wait a second.
What the fuck are you clowns
gonna do about this?
- Bud--
- Good-bye, Diana.
All right, Mr. Herman,
we know you're on probation
for possession of cocaine.
I'm gonna ask you one more time.
do you know what they were
looking for?
I don't fuckin'
believe this.
I'm afraid I'm gonna have
to get some information from you
before I can let you go.
Oh, sure.
Would you just walk me
to my car?
Sean,Jeff, come on,
get out ofthe car.
These men work for me.
Ed.
Uh, Pierre,
come on out
and meet Sheriff--
Peterson.
Sheriff Peterson.
Sheriff Peterson,
this is my husband, Ed.
And this is our
good friend, Pierre,
from Paris.
Can't tell you
how pleased I am
to meet you.
I--
Pierre doesn't
speak English.
He's such a good cook
though, who cares?
well, it's nice
to meet you all.
if you'll just--
Oh, I'm sorry.
Um, my name
is Mrs. Ed O-O-- C-Cohen.
Uh, C-o-h-e-n.
Um, I live at 1234
Malibu Canyon Road.
Malibu, California.
And our number
is 456-2199.
And our number
is 456-2199.
That's fine. we'll, uh,
most likely be in touch with you
within the next two days or so.
Oh, look at the time! Honey,
we're going to be really late!
Oh, you're right.
It was nice
meeting you, Sheriff.
Thank you so much.
Uh, Sean,Jeff,
could you walk Pierre over
to the Roberts' house?
We're so late as it is,
and it's only a block from here.
See you later, Pierre.
Bye, Sheriff.
So, uh, are you having...
a nice time in America?
I know it's here somewhere.
"Somewhere"?
Yeah, I had to use it once.
I ruined a silk blouse.
Must have been awful
for you.
There it is.
The only thing
I can't handle is snakes.
At this point, a snake
would be reassuring.
Now what?
Well-- Well...
the grounds are crawlin'
with servants during
the day.
We wait here till dark.
You're kidding.
It's only noon.
Mmm.
Ah.
Try to rest.
Get some sleep.
Sleep here?
Diana--
I'm gonna try
to grab a nap.
Diana?
You scared the shit outta me.
It's dark.
I've been watching you
sleep for nine hours.
Can we go now?
Oh, boy,
I really conked out.
Yes, you did.
Mmm.
This thing's locked.
No, it comes off.
Maybe it did once.
You must be stronger
than you look.
Jack?
What's happened to you?
They say my blood's
gone bad on me.
I'm buying it by the case
like champagne.
Are you, uh, in pain or--
I can't even get
any interesting drugs.
It's good to see you, Peach.
I couldn't figure out
what Joan was doing here.
I had no idea.
After years of compulsive
spending, she's finally...
taking an interest
in estate planning.
Did she tell you I called?
When?
When?
Jack, I've been trying
to get ahold of you
for six months.
It's Joan.
That bitch.
She's very thorough.
Who's this?
Oh, um, Ed Okin.
I got myself into trouble,
and he's the only one I've
been able to count on.
- What is this?
- It's an orgy.
You're trespassing.
Get them out.
If they won't leave,
call the police!
Larry, disregard that.
- You are endangering his life!
- Get her out, Larry.
Whoeveryou are,
or thinkyou are,
there have been a dozen
just like you.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to come here.
You better hurry
and tell me the problem.
Hasi's dead.
Hasi's dead?
Yeah.
Hamid too.
How?
Hasi sent me to Zurich
to get some stones
out of a safety box.
Theywere left
to him and--
He needed money in a hurry,
and he used you to get 'em
into the country.
That little shit.
People have been trying
to kill me too.
Yeah, Larry told me
about the men in the boat.
Must be Shaheen.
Hasi's aunt?
Did you ever meet her?
Hard as nails.
She's got a deal
in escrow.
Major development
downtown.
Escrow closes in a week,
and she's gotta come up
with a bundle.
She called me
for a short-term loan,
a big one,
but, uh,
I didn't need the headache.
She mentioned that she might
take Hasi in as a partner,
if he could
raise enough cash.
She had to know
about the stones.
Wait a minute. This is all
about a real estate deal?
- She can have them.
I'll keep my mouth shut.
- A real estate deal?
Honey, you know enough
to get 'em locked up
or deported.
My wife sells real estate.
Not to mention blackmail
and murder.
It's not just the stones
anymore.
You're gonna have
to negotiate with Shaheen.
Negotiate?
Offer to sell her the stones.
She'll understand that.
- What about the Frenchman?
- What Frenchman?
Someone else who wants to kill us.
Well, whoever he is,
he can't possibly be
as dangerous as Shaheen.
- What do we do?
- Go around by my office.
The number's on the Rolodex.
- Shaheen Parvizi.
- Parvizi, right.
I'll just
wait outside.
Okay.
You get out of the country
and start again.
This'll probably be
the best thing that ever
happened to you, Peach.
I thought you hated me.
Bye. I'll miss you.
Take care, Peach.
I will.
Can we borrow a car?
Mr. Caper said
take any car you want.
This is nice.
The keys
are inside.
Be careful, huh?
See you at the airport.
Okay.
Banzai.
You've gotta go.
Mrs. Caper is really
pissed off.
Which one
is Mrs. Caper's car?
I'm not armed.
Those are not
for you.
Are they for me?
But only three.
For good faith.
- Whose good faith?
- Yours and mine.
- Where are the other three?
- Diana's hiding them as we speak.
- Where?
- I don't know.
- I should believe that?
Can I help you?
Wherever they are right now,
it'll be somewhere where they
can be discovered by anyone...
or destroyed,
so we don't have much time.
do you have the money?
At this bulk, Miss Bailey,
I can give you
a very good price.
Whatever it costs.
You only get married once.
Only when she's sure
about her safety, she'll call.
She'll tell you where they
can be found. You'll never
hear from her again.
Then you wait for the call
with me as long as it takes.
No, she makes the call
when we're reunited,
when I'm safe too.
You expect me to believe
you won't take the other half?
Good faith.
We could've taken them all.
How do you know she
has not already run away,
Ieft you behind with me?
I don't. It's a risk
we'll both have to take.
This girl goes with anyone
who takes care ofher.
She gives herself away
like a fool.
She has nothing ofher own,
only what's given
or what she takes.
This is a foolish risk.
Right now
there's really no choice.
for you maybe.
Aren't they beautiful?
Oh, yes. Gorgeous.
Mrs. Parvizi will be by
to pick them up in a few hours.
All she wants is the money
and no more trouble.
- Who are you?
- That's all she wants.
Just what was promised her
and her safety.
- What about you?
- I'm just a friend.
A friend?
Of Jack Caper's too?
You drive his car.
What do you want?
She said she'd split
the money with me.
All this risk for $ 12,500?
No. Please.
- No, of course not.
- Then why?
The last thing you'd believe
is anything close to the truth.
The truth is...
I'm not sure I know.
Somebody had to help her.
I happened to be in the wrong place
at the right time.
- How much did Melville offer?
- The French guy?
we rejected his offer.
Twenty-five thousand
dollars is nothing.
I do not understand.
Okay, you give me
the money in cash.
when I see Diana, we 'll call
and tellyou the location
ofthe other three stones.
It's simple.
Too simple.
why? what is it?
what's wrong with our plan?
There has to be a catch,
a trick.
I do not trust your plan.
I think it's a very good plan.
Come on. Time's running out.
Escrow is closing.
- Did Jack Caper tell you that?
- Yes, that's right.
- I'm Jack's son.
- His son?
Illegitimate.
But some day it'll all be mine.
You and I might be doing
business, going out to lunch.
All right, okay, fine.
I'll tell you the truth.
Diana's C.I.A. I'm on
Her Majesty's Secret Service.
We've got the place surrounded.
I'm really from Immigration.
We thought you might have some
illegal aliens working here.
- What are you playing at?
- I apologize. I've been lying.
I'm actually
the chairman ofthe committee
to reelect the president.
- I was hoping for
a substantial contribution.
- You are mad.
Nowyou don't know
what to believe, do you?
Look, either you've
already lost everything...
or you have to take
a chance on me.
Neither of us
have much to lose.
If he's still there, you better
let him go if you ever want
to see those stones alive.
A-Again.
Ever.
I promise if I'm followed,
I'll go straight to the police.
Besides, it might
take every one of you
to retrieve the stones.
They could be scattered
all over the city.
- When can we expect this call?
- When everyone's safe.
Mr. Oskovitz.
Mr. Frank Oskovitz, please go
to the white courtesy telephone.
One minute, sir.
One minute.
Aero Norte
Flight 1 56 to Mexico City
now boarding at Gate 53.
Boo.
Great.
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
We'll miss the plane.
I have to make the call.
Fuck 'em.
We'll do it from Mexico.
No, no, no, no.
It has to be done now.
I want it overwith.
You're crazy.
The flower market downtown.
Yakamura Roses.
It's waiting for you.
It's in your name.
Wait! Wait!
Your atencio'n, por favor.
Ladies and gentlemen,
mechanical difficulties
necessitate our asking...
all passengers
to kindly deplane...
and return temporarily
to the boarding area.
Thank you for your cooperation,
and our apologies for the delay.
I 'm afraid all passengers
have to get off the aircraft
at this time.
You think we could wait it out
in here? It's more comfortable
than out there.
I'm very sorry, sir.
Rules are rules.
...please go to a white
courtesy telephone.
Miss Susan Dorgan,
please meet your party
at baggage area--
Look.
Now what happens?
- What the fuck--
- Federal Agent!
Everybody down!
This is ridiculous.
Big shot, huh?
You got a gun. Now what?
Shithead. You.
Huh?
Maniac.
Let me askyou something.
Maybe you can help me.
What's wrong with my life?
Why is my wife sleeping
with someone else?
Why can't I sleep?
What are you doing?
Will somebody tell me
what we're doing here?
Well, at least
we're not dead.
Maybe we are,
we just don't know it.
When you die, you don't
go to a Ramada Inn.
How do you know?
And, uh,
what's happening here?
Sorry, Mrs. Parvizi,
but you'll have to come with us.
Can we see you in here
for a minute, please?
- Are we under arrest or what?
- I'd say you'd fall into
the "or what" category.
- Are you a policeman?
- I'm a federal agent.
Feel better?
will you gentlemen
excuse us, please?
I don't know
what's going down here,
and I don't want to know.
All I know is that this money's
clean, and I'm supposed
to give it to you.
- For what?
- Someone--
- Someone very important
must like you.
-Jack.
There's $750,000 right there.
All this money is for us?
Who you gonna tell?
You got 24 hours undisturbed.
You're not to leave this room.
After that, you're on your own.
- Do we Thank you or what?
- Follow the "or what" category.

Caught in a quick sand
and I'm startin' to sink
So tired of strugglin' that
my mind can barely think
I don't know
where I'm goin'
Lord, I don't know
what I'm gonna do
My fuel supply is finished
There ain't nothin 'left
to burn
I need someone to help me
But I don't know
which way to turn
I know I don't have much
of a choice
I'll go out of my mind
Or into the night
I'm rollin' and tumblin'
Spinnin' end over end
Got to have
some peace and quiet
So I can find myself again
Still if you ask me
what's the matter
I just don't know
what to say
There's people all around me
but I feel so alone
I guess they'd like
to help me
But I have to do it
on my own
I know I don't have much
of a choice
I'll go out of my mind
Or into the night
Into the night
Do you want some coffee?
Just a minute.
What did you say?
Do you want me to make you some coffee?
No. No, thanks.
Aren't you hungry?
Oh, yeah, sure.
What's the matter, Ed?
Why aren't you sleeping?
I don't know.
Well, what can I do?
Just love me, okay?
Oh, that's Stan.
What is it?
Am I doing something wrong?
- No, of course not.
- Well, what is it?
I don't know.
Oh, we better go.

I'm David K. Duncan.
Commander Chuck Street
with traffic. How's it going?
we've got a slowdown on that
south bound Pasadena freeway.
This is the Dave Hull program
on KRLA,
but we are gonna
interrupt the show now
for this special announce--
Don't you want to hear
what happened?
No, not really.
If it's important, I guess
they'll let us know anyway.
Ah, a smilel
Okay, now we're
gettin' somewhere.
All right, Mr. No-Sleep,
I have something for you.
What's three miles long
and has an I.Q of 165?
A Saint Patrick's Day parade.
Actually,
it's a Cinco de Mayo parade.
I can't sleep anymore,
Herb.
Are you gonna be all right?
I don't wantyou nodding off
at the wheel.
No, no, I'm fine.
We can switch.
I'm fine. I'm okay.
I don't know.
I don't know.
My job is a dead end.
I feel weird,
like I'm from another
planet or something.
Ellen kissed me on the top
of my head this morning
and said, "Have a nice day. "
- Can you believe that?
- What's wrong with that?
Bank tellers say,
"Have a nice day."
The cashier at the supermarket
says, "Have a nice day."
I just think that somehow
yourwife should say something
better than, "Have a nice day."
You're losing your mind, Ed.
How long have you had insomnia?
My last good night's sleep?
Yeah, the full eight hours.
Seems like... 1980.
Yeah, the summer of 1980.
You're in bed. You can't sleep.
I don't see the problem.
You go to the airport,
catch the midnight flight
to Las Vegas.
Nobody sleeps there.
Very funny, Herb.
No, listen, I'm serious.
You need some action.
I'm not a gambler.
Don't gamble.
Have a few drinks.
See a show.
Get loose.
Get laid.
Oh, wonderful.
I'm sure Ellen would love it.
You'll be home
before she wakes up.
Sex isn't the problem.
When was the last time
you fucked your wife?
You're a classy guy, Herb.
Up in Vegas, there's
a beautiful, young girl
named Melissa.
She will do anything
you want for $200 an hour.
Two hundred dollars?
Anything you want.
Anything.
For example?
if you want,
she'll dress up
like Santa Claus.
Would she bring me a pony?
You're having trouble
with this concept.
I'm talking about the universe
of infinite possibility.
No such thing.
The only limits are
money and imagination.
Sorry.
I'm a little short on both.
Hello, Fielding.
How much would I have to pay one
of these women for sympathy?
Sympathy?
Very kinky, Ed.
I'll see you at lunch.
Ed Okin.
They're claiming we've got
a synchronization problem.
Naturally, this has nothing
to do with their god-awful
carrier tracking loop.
They want full tolerance
checks on all buggers,
sensors and corresponding
transducers.
Scanners seem to check out.
Yeah, but that's on the uplink.
The problem is downlink.
Ed, have you got
the signal-to-noise ratio
on the downlink?
Ed?
Yeah?
- have you got it?
- What's that?
Yep, we're having
synchronization problems.
I need the signal-to-noise ratio
on the downlink.
Signal-to-noise.
Right. Um, mm-hmm.
- Right.
- I've got it here.
I was just, uh--
Uh... signal-to-noise,
signal-to-noise.
- Signal-to-noise: 5.3 db.
- Five point three?
What modulation scheme?
- Uh, B.P.S.k.
- "B.P.S.k."?
Isn't that correct?
we switched
to Q.P.S.K. two weeks ago.
Q.P.S.K.?
It was incredible.
I can't tell you
how I felt.
It was incredible.
I can't tell you
how I felt.
I wish I'd seen it.
The whole place was excited.
I couldn't talk my wife
out of going to the orchid show.
Everyone was there.
- if you missed it,
you can see it on cable.
- His family was there.
Listen, I'm gonna go home

There was a big face.
I didn't get a really good--
N-N-Nothing happened.

Neither am I.
Why didn'tyou want

Pull over.
Huh? Here?
Pull over.
I'm gonna be sick.

Mm-hmm.
Did you know
those guys?
No.
Did they
take anything?
No suitcase?
No. Please don't ask me
anything now, okay?
You mind if I ask
your name?
Diana.
Like Princess Diana.
Is thatyour boat?
No, it belongs
to a friend.
I'll be just a second, okay?
Larry?
Anyone aboard?
Diana.
You're not supposed to come here anymore.
Larry, I'm sort of in trouble.
Let me just stay here
tonight, okay?
Jackwon't know anything
about it. I promise.
You no longer have
the use of this boat.
I must still have
some clothes on board.
Let me shower and change.
Can I at least use the phone,
please, Larry?
The man says
you no longer exist.
I'm in trouble, Larry.
You're a pig, Larry.
Good night, Diana.
Is everything okay?
Could you take me to Hollywood?
Just a ride to Hollywood, okay?
I've got nowhere else to go.
Now you take offyour shirt.
Now take off your pants.
- Would you walk me up?
- You can't leave it there.
Everybody parks in the alley.
It's all right.
- They'll towyou away.
- Don't worry about it.
Hey!
Come in.
No, I 'd better
be going.
No.
No, not yet.
J ust for a minute?
No, I've gotta...
go get some sleep.
Just let me get
the lights on, okay?
I'm sorry.
I guess I'm still just
a little bit freaked out.
Make yourself at home.
Cute.
Is this your apartment?
Uh, well, no. Actually,
it's my brother's place.
I'm staying here temporarily.
Did you check
the refrigerator?
No, no, no.
I, uh--
I've got to be...
shoving off.
No, wait.
Please.
I really don't want
to be alone.
Let me make a call,
get myself organized.
- Okay.
- Thanks.
Ooh
Sugarpie, honeybunch
You know that I loveyou
Oh, fuck it.
Can't help myself
I love you
and nobody else
- In and out my life
- In and out my life

Leavingjust

And I kissed it
a thousand times
Don't go away.
I 'l I be right out.
Yes.
Well, it's an emergency.
Do you know where
she can be reached?
Oh, just a second.
Hello.
Christie.
Di, where have you been?
What's happening?
Uh, listen,
I'm kind of in the middle
ofa real bad situation.
Me too.
We're gonna be out here
all night.
Can I come over?
Now?
Let me talk to Bud.
Chris, look,
I need a friend.
It's serious.
Yeah, come on over.
I'll leave a drive-on for you.
Thanks.
Open the fuckin' door!
Open up, you bitch!
Friend of yours?
who's in there?
Diana!
Who's this?
Looks like a narc.
- He's a friend.
- She makes friends so easily.
What is your problem?
Hey! I work for my money,
andso does he.
Nobody gives me a fuckin' thing,
and I pay my bills!
- Are you her brother?
- Yeah. So what?
- What happened to my clothes?
- I tried to be careful.
Look, she had
a terrible experience--
She is a terrible
experience!
You fly off to Europe
likeyou're hot shit!
You promise--
You promise, but you
don't pay the rent.
They finally
turned the phone off!.
Do you know how much
I had to come up with?
I had to borrow money from Don
to pay the fuckin' rent!
Fine! I'llpay you back!
No problem!
Right, no problem.
Don moved in.
You're movin' out!
- Charlie, lighten up!
- You've been gone three weeks!
You didn't even call me!
Okay, fine!
Give me back my car keys.
I rented it to Artie.
Artie?
You get it back right now.
He drove it up
to San Francisco.
That is a $55,000 car, Charlie.
Jack gave it toyou.
It didn't cost you anything.
- Oh, Charlie.
- You can't just kick her out on the street.
She's always got you.
we're going out.
Don't be here when I get back.
Elvis wouldn't
do what you're doing!
And I knew him!
You didn't know him.
You fucked him maybe,
but you didn't know him!
- You drive a beige Toyota?
- Yes.
I thought so.
The cops towed it away.
Can't be there.
The police towed it?
You shouldn't have
parked there.
Perfect.
Where you going?
To get a taxi.
I've had enough excitement
for one night.
No, this is Los Angeles.
There aren't any taxis.
I'll call one.
I'll call one for you too.
There isn't time.
I'm in a lot of trouble.
No, I'm in trouble now.
It was my car they towed away.
I can get a car.
They could
still be after me.
Who could
still be after you?
Do you know these guys?
No!Just believe me.
I need to get some place...
where I can straighten
this whole thing out.
I have to find my car.
Please?
Please stay with me
a little longer?
I don't want
to go out alone.
This is too weird for me.
Whatever you want.
What do you want?
I'll pay you.
I'm too tired for all this.
I don't need any more shit
in my life right now.
I'm sorry.
They're here.
Not on foot.
You say you can get a car?
Yes.
Sure your brother
won't mind?
Fuck him.
What are you doing?
You can come out now.
Who are those men?
I don't know
who they are exactly.
What does that mean?
I was in Europe,
and I brought something back.
That's what they want.
Somehow they found out.
Drugs?
No!
I swear to God.
I'm getting out.
This is too strange.
No, listen to me.
I have something they want.
It's worth
a great deal of money.
- You want a date?
- What?
Do you want to party?
No!
You want any ludes?
Coke? Hash?
Acid? Grass?
No, Thank you.
No?
All right, no sweat.
Call me.
I don't know who those men are.
if you wanna get out, go ahead.
Get back,
everybody!
Let me go!
I want to see Detective
kalichek, and I mean now!
And... cut!
Did you like that one?
That was fine.
David!
I can make him
more psychotic.
It was fine.
David!
Do they need all
these people just
to film a TV show?
Well, I appreciate
all your help, Ed.
I'll get you to the phone,
and you can call a taxi.
I'm fine now. Thanks, really.
Diana, where have you been?
God!
Do you believe this?
Look at this.
I got three more lines.
"Don't, please, don't"--
I've gotta talk toyou.
Sure.
Oh, David.
Yeah?
How much longer?
Twenty minutes, a half.
Go get warm. All right.
Okay.
Excuse me.
Oh, uh, Chris,
this is Ed.
Hi.
Hello.
Let's go to my motor home.
Uh, you should find a phone
somewhere around here.
Very funny.
Excuse me.
Oh... I'm fine.
Can I helpyou?
No, thanks.
Amazing stuff.
What are you doing here?
I'm waiting for somebody.
She's in there.
You know Christie?
No, no, not really.
We just met.
Uh-huh. Excuse me.
Bud?
Yeah?
For the L.A. Times.
This or this?
They're both shit.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Christie--
Hi, Di.
Hi, Bud.
Christie, who's the clown
hanging around in front
of your trailer?
Oh, he's--
He's with me, Bud.
Oh, fine.
Christie,
remember to act scared.
This guy has a gun toyour head.
- I know the feeling.
- What?
Oh, nothing.
You look beautiful, honey.
Oh, thanks, Bud.
Good to seeyou, Di.
You want a stick of gum?
No, thanks.
You won't even ask him?
I'd like to help you,
but it's Bud's house.
You live there too.
Christie?
We're all ready for you.
- Okay, I'll be right there.
- Okay.
So will you hold on
to these for me?
Sure.
What is that?
It's a hidden pocket.
- Thanks.
- For what?
- Is there a phone I can use?
- Use the one in Bud's office.
He's on the set right now.
I don't think he'll mind.
This won't take long.
Hello.
I'm sorry,
I must speak to Jack.
would you tell him
it's Diana?
Miss Diana,
whoever you are--
I'm a friend of Jack's.
I don't give a good goddamn!
if you call here again--
Whoever you are,
you better not hang up
on me this time.
This is his wife.
Don't call back ever!
His wife.
What's she doing there?
His wife?
She probably lives there.
Not for years.
They barely speak.
Bizarre.
Go ahead.
I'm sorry, you folks are
gonna have to leave now.
- We're friends of Bud Herman's.
- Mr. Herman sent me over.
He wants you to leave now.
Fine.
We're going.
What about my cab?
I'll take you to your car.
Let's just
get out of here.
do you know where downtown
they take the cars?
I've gotta get ahold
of Hamid. Shit.
do you know where to go?
No, I don't know.
I don't know what I'm doing.
We're going to find my car.
Would you help me, please?
Just a little more.
No! I've gotta go home.
No more.
I've got problems
of my own to deal with.
How do you think I feel?
You're all I've got.
Well, that's hard
to believe.
You're tellin' me.
if you want any more
help from me, I wanna
know what's going on.
You wanna know
what's going on?
Yes.
All right.
Have a seat.
Okay.
They killed him.
- killed who?
- Hasi.
"Hasi"?
In the parking lot.
I-- I was with him.
He was waiting for me.
The stones were his.
- We have to get the police.
- No, I can't. I smuggled them in.
- What stones?
- Six perfect emeralds.
They're priceless.
They killed this guy
for six emeralds?
How'd you get involved in all this?
The stones are from the scepter
of an ancient Persian king.
Remember when the Shah fell
and the royal family fled Iran?
The treasury was looted.
Somebody got away with
a good part ofthe crown jewels.
Hasi was "somebody's" cousin.
Um... he was gonna
give me $25,000.
So I went to Zurich.
I went to a vault.
Everything went fine.
He met me at the airport.
- Who killed Hasi?
- They wanted the stones.
If I lose the stones,
I'm dead for sure.
The police can't help me.
I'm one of the bad guys.
Who were those men
chasing you at the airport?
I don't know.
I've got to make some kind
of deal with them.
- With who?
- That's what I have to find out.
I know they're all Iranians
or Persians or something. I--
If they're on visas,
they don't want trouble.
Well, this is kind
of outside my field.
Oh, Christ.
I can't get ahold of Jack.
He would help me.
- Who's Jack?
- He's a friend of mine.
- Is he involved in this?
-Jack? No!
Jack doesn't need any more money.
I guess he doesn't
need me anymore either.
Maybe if you explained
to the police that you
were doing a job--
That I'm a smuggler?
No.
Okay, so now what?
I know someone else
who could help me.
Would you help me
get to him?
It's my only way out of this.
No.
You did it before
at the airport.
I'm not sure what I did
at the airport.
You saved my life.
They don't know who you are.
Right now they don't know
where I am.
Just stay with me
for a little while longer.
How do you know
you can trust me?
Because I know men.
No, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
What am I doing here?
This is insane.
I'd do it myself,
but I don't know who's there.
I promise I won't ask
anything else.
This is awfully good, sir.
I think you can feel
very confident with that.
We'll just raise
the shoulder a little,
put a tuck in there. Good.
Excuse me, dear.
We've all got homes to go to.
This is the phone number...
to the pay phone
in ladies' room.
Give it only to Hamid.
It's just
straight up Rodeo?
Yeah.
Oh! Wait.
Uh, it's private.
You'll have to show this
at the door.
"Jack Caper"?
- Is he the one with the wife?
- Yeah, the one I can't reach.
- Was that his boat?
- Yes.
Nowgo on.
Okay.
After I talk to Hamid, I'll--
I'll pickyou up right here
in front of Tiffany's.
Good. Oh, here's the...
ticket for the car.
Okay.
You okay?
Yeah,
I'm just tired.
Lucille
I takeyou in my arms
and everything's all right
Lucille
when I have the blues
I love to hold you tight

What do you want?
I'm just trying
to help somebody.
Listen,
I don't need this shit.
Tell Mr. Moradi
that one ofhis friends
is in deep trouble.
I'm going now.
Hold on.
I'll go get him.
Good evening.
Hi.
Good night.
Can you tell me
how did this happen?
I don't know. Right now
she's waiting for your call
at this number.
All I know is
she needs your help.
Have I ever lied toyou?
Okay, but can we talk
about it?
Listen, Bernie,
I'll call you back.
Hamid?
Just a moment, Diana.
No! Don't!
Wait!
Don't shoot!
You're verygood.
You're reallyvery good.
I'm amazed
we've not met before.
I beg your pardon?
I've been watching you
since you left Caper's yacht.
Very impressive.
I am?
Stop performing now, Ed.
If that's your name.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Okay. I represent
Monsieur Melville,
and I can assure you
that he can be...
far more reasonable
than the SAVAk.
"The SAVAk"?
The Shah's Secret Police.
Death Squad.
Iranian Gestapo.
Shaheen's boys.
"Shaheen's boys"?
I like you, Ed.
I do like you.
You're very good.
The stones.
What?
Where are the stones?
I can't help you.
We do understand
each other, don't we?
Oh... I don't know.
Very good.
Very impressive.
I'm sure
we'll chat again.
Can I help you, sir?
I think you just did.
- are you a guest at the hotel?
- No.
I'm waiting for someone
to pick me up.
- Who would that be?
- Uh... m-mywife.
are you aware, sir,
that it's almost 3:30
in the morning?
Really?
No, is it that late?
May I see
some identification?
Is my husband giving you
any trouble, Officers?
Diana, this guy
put a gun in my mouth.
- are you sure he was English?
- You've never heard
ofthis Frenchman?
I don't know a Frenchman.
Uh-huh.
Where are the stones?
The stones are safe.
It's all right.
The stones are safe.
What about us? Are we safe?
Hamid said he'd take care
of everything.
Hi,Jimmy.
Hey, beautiful lady.
What's happening?
Mr. Moradi in?
- Yeah.
The man's expecting you.
- I'll be right up.
Well, okay.
Good luck.
Oh, Ed, I don't know
what to say.
It's been, uh...
an experience.
I can't even giveyou a number.
I don't know where I'll be.
Yeah, well, it's probably
better the less I know.
Yeah.
Don't say a word to anyone.
Nobody would believe it anyway.
I've, uh, got some cash.
Swiss francs.
It's not that much.
Oh, no, no, no.
No, really, take it.
No, absolutely not.
Be careful, okay?
Good-bye, Ed.
Think I can get a cab
at this hour?
I hope she'll be okay.
Something wrong?
Yeah, I forgot
to give her something.
You can leave it with me.
No, I think I should
give it to her myself.
Thank you.
Come on.

House of Horrors.

I suggest you consult
your physician,
Mr. Talbert.
Take him along
with you, please.
So there you are.
I'm glad to see
you've recovered.

Oh, boy, am I glad to see you.

Go to the police.
Thank you.
And tell them what?
How would you explain
whatyou were doing
up in Hamid's penthouse?
I was worried about you.
Some woman who jumps
into your car at the airport?
That's the truth.
Well, the truth
will put me in jail.
We should try
to see Jack.
Jack Caper?
Yes, the one
with the boat.
The one with the wife?
He's a very rich man.
I was his mistress.
I, um, I was modeling
and, uh,
t-trying to, you know,
make it as an actress.
Mostly, I hung out a lot.
I-I metJack at a party.
we went to Europe together
for fun, and it just
sort of evolved.
He gave me an apartment
in Westwood, and, um,
credit cards, my Porsche.
It was easy. It was nice.
- How long?
- Five years.
Five years?
You must have been 16.
I'm not as young as I look.
About six months ago,
I get this call from his lawyer.
I had to move out.
My credit cards were canceled.
He let me keep the Porsche.
- What happened?
- I don't know.
He won't talk to me.
What aboutyou?
What do you do?
I work
for Communtronics.
A recording studio?
I'm an aerospace engineer.
Really?
Mm-hmm.
That sounds fascinating.
Does it really?
Well, yeah, sort of.
What wereyou doing
at the airport?
- It's kind ofhard to explain.
- Try me.
I can't sleep.
Soyou went to the airport?
My life isn't working out
somehow.
Soyou went to the airport?
My wife is unfaithful to me.
Oh. Your wife's
having an affair.
That makes it sound romantic.
- Well, maybe it is.
- Thank you.
- Well, maybe it is.
- Thank you.
Sorry.
Well?
Let's make it
on the beach.
Bud, it's too cold.
It's cold, my ass.
I'll buy you a new coat.
Get outta here.
Hi, Moe. Hi, Larry.
Hi, Curly.
I thought you were gonna
feed the birds.
You said you'd feed them.
Carlotta was supposed to,
but she's offthis week.
You've got to feed the birds.
Don't make me
feed the birds.
I'm afraid of them.
You're afraid of everything.
They're too loud, Bud.
They're loud
because they're hungry.
Ooh.
I feel stupid
in this outfit.
You may feel stupid,
but you look sensational.
Do I have to wear
the dumb sash?
Oblige me.
I'm gonna put this on video.
Mmm.
Quiet, Moe!
It's 7:30 in the morning,
for chrissake.
Who the hell are you?
Won't you come in?
Holy shit.
Charlie?
Oh, God,
I hope Charlie's all right.
- Where's my brother?
- Your brother is well.
- Where is he?
- He's not here. He fled.
Now, if you'll come
with us.
- Do we have a choice?
- Very droll. Very amusing.
Hey, Diane, come here!
Help! Help!
We better call the police!
Colin Morris
was a superb man.
He told me that
you were also very good.
Colin Morris?
The Englishman?
- Yes, the Englishman.
- He worked for you?
Colin was my employee, yes.
What was your name, sir?
When I give you the stones,
you will let us go?
I hardly think so.
I'll need you
to appease Shaheen.
She'll want blood.
Yours will do.
if you're not gonna let us go,
why should I help you?
You're fond of Ed, yes?
do you have any idea what
theywere looking for?
No!
You never
saw these guys--
I told you five times!
I don't know what
they were after!
Jesus Christ!
Sir, this woman
says she came...
- to pick up a coat
from Mrs. Herman.
- We're not married!
Bud, what happened?
- Where's Christie?
- She's not here. Okay, Diana?
You a friendofMr. Herman's?
Uh, what's going on?
I just came here
to pick up my coat.
- What coat?
- My, uh, my big down coat.
I loaned it to Christie.
She told me to pick it up today.
- There it is over there.
- Will you get her out of here?
Wait a second.
What the fuck are you clowns
gonna do about this?
- Bud--
- Good-bye, Diana.
All right, Mr. Herman,
we know you're on probation
for possession of cocaine.
I'm gonna ask you one more time.
do you know what they were
looking for?
I don't fuckin'
believe this.
I'm afraid I'm gonna have
to get some information from you
before I can let you go.
Oh, sure.
Would you just walk me
to my car?
Sean,Jeff, come on,
get out ofthe car.
These men work for me.
Ed.
Uh, Pierre,
come on out
and meet Sheriff--
Peterson.
Sheriff Peterson.
Sheriff Peterson,
this is my husband, Ed.
And this is our
good friend, Pierre,
from Paris.
Can't tell you
how pleased I am
to meet you.
I--
Pierre doesn't
speak English.
He's such a good cook
though, who cares?
well, it's nice
to meet you all.
if you'll just--
Oh, I'm sorry.
Um, my name
is Mrs. Ed O-O-- C-Cohen.
Uh, C-o-h-e-n.
Um, I live at 1234
Malibu Canyon Road.
Malibu, California.
And our number
is 456-2199.
And our number
is 456-2199.
That's fine. we'll, uh,
most likely be in touch with you
within the next two days or so.
Oh, look at the time! Honey,
we're going to be really late!
Oh, you're right.
It was nice
meeting you, Sheriff.
Thank you so much.
Uh, Sean,Jeff,
could you walk Pierre over
to the Roberts' house?
We're so late as it is,
and it's only a block from here.
See you later, Pierre.
Bye, Sheriff.
So, uh, are you having...
a nice time in America?
I know it's here somewhere.
"Somewhere"?
Yeah, I had to use it once.
I ruined a silk blouse.
Must have been awful
for you.
There it is.
The only thing
I can't handle is snakes.
At this point, a snake
would be reassuring.
Now what?
Well-- Well...
the grounds are crawlin'
with servants during
the day.
We wait here till dark.
You're kidding.
It's only noon.
Mmm.
Ah.
Try to rest.
Get some sleep.
Sleep here?
Diana--
I'm gonna try
to grab a nap.
Diana?
You scared the shit outta me.
It's dark.
I've been watching you
sleep for nine hours.
Can we go now?
Oh, boy,
I really conked out.
Yes, you did.
Mmm.
This thing's locked.
No, it comes off.
Maybe it did once.
You must be stronger
than you look.
Jack?
What's happened to you?
They say my blood's
gone bad on me.
I'm buying it by the case
like champagne.
Are you, uh, in pain or--
I can't even get
any interesting drugs.
It's good to see you, Peach.
I couldn't figure out
what Joan was doing here.
I had no idea.
After years of compulsive
spending, she's finally...
taking an interest
in estate planning.
Did she tell you I called?
When?
When?
Jack, I've been trying
to get ahold of you
for six months.
It's Joan.
That bitch.
She's very thorough.
Who's this?
Oh, um, Ed Okin.
I got myself into trouble,
and he's the only one I've
been able to count on.
- What is this?
- It's an orgy.
You're trespassing.
Get them out.
If they won't leave,
call the police!
Larry, disregard that.
- You are endangering his life!
- Get her out, Larry.
Whoeveryou are,
or thinkyou are,
there have been a dozen
just like you.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to come here.
You better hurry
and tell me the problem.
Hasi's dead.
Hasi's dead?
Yeah.
Hamid too.
How?
Hasi sent me to Zurich
to get some stones
out of a safety box.
Theywere left
to him and--
He needed money in a hurry,
and he used you to get 'em
into the country.
That little shit.
People have been trying
to kill me too.
Yeah, Larry told me
about the men in the boat.
Must be Shaheen.
Hasi's aunt?
Did you ever meet her?
Hard as nails.
She's got a deal
in escrow.
Major development
downtown.
Escrow closes in a week,
and she's gotta come up
with a bundle.
She called me
for a short-term loan,
a big one,
but, uh,
I didn't need the headache.
She mentioned that she might
take Hasi in as a partner,
if he could
raise enough cash.
She had to know
about the stones.
Wait a minute. This is all
about a real estate deal?
- She can have them.
I'll keep my mouth shut.
- A real estate deal?
Honey, you know enough
to get 'em locked up
or deported.
My wife sells real estate.
Not to mention blackmail
and murder.
It's not just the stones
anymore.
You're gonna have
to negotiate with Shaheen.
Negotiate?
Offer to sell her the stones.
She'll understand that.
- What about the Frenchman?
- What Frenchman?
Someone else who wants to kill us.
Well, whoever he is,
he can't possibly be
as dangerous as Shaheen.
- What do we do?
- Go around by my office.
The number's on the Rolodex.
- Shaheen Parvizi.
- Parvizi, right.
I'll just
wait outside.
Okay.
You get out of the country
and start again.
This'll probably be
the best thing that ever
happened to you, Peach.
I thought you hated me.
Bye. I'll miss you.
Take care, Peach.
I will.
Can we borrow a car?
Mr. Caper said
take any car you want.
This is nice.
The keys
are inside.
Be careful, huh?
See you at the airport.
Okay.
Banzai.
You've gotta go.
Mrs. Caper is really
pissed off.
Which one
is Mrs. Caper's car?
I'm not armed.
Those are not
for you.
Are they for me?
But only three.
For good faith.
- Whose good faith?
- Yours and mine.
- Where are the other three?
- Diana's hiding them as we speak.
- Where?
- I don't know.
- I should believe that?
Can I help you?
Wherever they are right now,
it'll be somewhere where they
can be discovered by anyone...
or destroyed,
so we don't have much time.
do you have the money?
At this bulk, Miss Bailey,
I can give you
a very good price.
Whatever it costs.
You only get married once.
Only when she's sure
about her safety, she'll call.
She'll tell you where they
can be found. You'll never
hear from her again.
Then you wait for the call
with me as long as it takes.
No, she makes the call
when we're reunited,
when I'm safe too.
You expect me to believe
you won't take the other half?
Good faith.
We could've taken them all.
How do you know she
has not already run away,
Ieft you behind with me?
I don't. It's a risk
we'll both have to take.
This girl goes with anyone
who takes care ofher.
She gives herself away
like a fool.
She has nothing ofher own,
only what's given
or what she takes.
This is a foolish risk.
Right now
there's really no choice.
for you maybe.
Aren't they beautiful?
Oh, yes. Gorgeous.
Mrs. Parvizi will be by
to pick them up in a few hours.
All she wants is the money
and no more trouble.
- Who are you?
- That's all she wants.
Just what was promised her
and her safety.
- What about you?
- I'm just a friend.
A friend?
Of Jack Caper's too?
You drive his car.
What do you want?
She said she'd split
the money with me.
All this risk for $ 12,500?
No. Please.
- No, of course not.
- Then why?
The last thing you'd believe
is anything close to the truth.
The truth is...
I'm not sure I know.
Somebody had to help her.
I happened to be in the wrong place
at the right time.
- How much did Melville offer?
- The French guy?
we rejected his offer.
Twenty-five thousand
dollars is nothing.
I do not understand.
Okay, you give me
the money in cash.
when I see Diana, we 'll call
and tellyou the location
ofthe other three stones.
It's simple.
Too simple.
why? what is it?
what's wrong with our plan?
There has to be a catch,
a trick.
I do not trust your plan.
I think it's a very good plan.
Come on. Time's running out.
Escrow is closing.
- Did Jack Caper tell you that?
- Yes, that's right.
- I'm Jack's son.
- His son?
Illegitimate.
But some day it'll all be mine.
You and I might be doing
business, going out to lunch.
All right, okay, fine.
I'll tell you the truth.
Diana's C.I.A. I'm on
Her Majesty's Secret Service.
We've got the place surrounded.
I'm really from Immigration.
We thought you might have some
illegal aliens working here.
- What are you playing at?
- I apologize. I've been lying.
I'm actually
the chairman ofthe committee
to reelect the president.
- I was hoping for
a substantial contribution.
- You are mad.
Nowyou don't know
what to believe, do you?
Look, either you've
already lost everything...
or you have to take
a chance on me.
Neither of us
have much to lose.
If he's still there, you better
let him go if you ever want
to see those stones alive.
A-Again.
Ever.
I promise if I'm followed,
I'll go straight to the police.
Besides, it might
take every one of you
to retrieve the stones.
They could be scattered
all over the city.
- When can we expect this call?
- When everyone's safe.
Mr. Oskovitz.
Mr. Frank Oskovitz, please go
to the white courtesy telephone.
One minute, sir.
One minute.
Aero Norte
Flight 1 56 to Mexico City
now boarding at Gate 53.
Boo.
Great.
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
We'll miss the plane.
I have to make the call.
Fuck 'em.
We'll do it from Mexico.
No, no, no, no.
It has to be done now.
I want it overwith.
You're crazy.
The flower market downtown.
Yakamura Roses.
It's waiting for you.
It's in your name.
Wait! Wait!
Your atencio'n, por favor.
Ladies and gentlemen,
mechanical difficulties
necessitate our asking...
all passengers
to kindly deplane...
and return temporarily
to the boarding area.
Thank you for your cooperation,
and our apologies for the delay.
I 'm afraid all passengers
have to get off the aircraft
at this time.
You think we could wait it out
in here? It's more comfortable
than out there.
I'm very sorry, sir.
Rules are rules.
...please go to a white
courtesy telephone.
Miss Susan Dorgan,
please meet your party
at baggage area--
Look.
Now what happens?
- What the fuck--
- Federal Agent!
Everybody down!
This is ridiculous.
Big shot, huh?
You got a gun. Now what?
Shithead. You.
Huh?
Maniac.
Let me askyou something.
Maybe you can help me.
What's wrong with my life?
Why is my wife sleeping
with someone else?
Why can't I sleep?
What are you doing?
Will somebody tell me
what we're doing here?
Well, at least
we're not dead.
Maybe we are,
we just don't know it.
When you die, you don't
go to a Ramada Inn.
How do you know?
And, uh,
what's happening here?
Sorry, Mrs. Parvizi,
but you'll have to come with us.
Can we see you in here
for a minute, please?
- Are we under arrest or what?
- I'd say you'd fall into
the "or what" category.
- Are you a policeman?
- I'm a federal agent.
Feel better?
will you gentlemen
excuse us, please?
I don't know
what's going down here,
and I don't want to know.
All I know is that this money's
clean, and I'm supposed
to give it to you.
- For what?
- Someone--
- Someone very important
must like you.
-Jack.
There's $750,000 right there.
All this money is for us?
Who you gonna tell?
You got 24 hours undisturbed.
You're not to leave this room.
After that, you're on your own.
- Do we Thank you or what?
- Follow the "or what" category.
