Walker, Texas Ranger s03e15 Episode Script

I didn't say | I was gonna take the offer.
You didn't say you weren't, either.
Yeah, I thought you said you wanted | to get the bad guys as much as we do.
I do, but I've got a future | to think about.
Some future, Alex.
Defending the same guys | you were prosecuting.
I'm not the first person | that's ever considered switching sides.
They offered me four times | what I make as an assistant DA.
If it was about money, | we'd all be doing something else.
- Yep.
| - I'm just gonna talk to them.
You know, | maybe it's good for my ego.
Sorry.
Hello? Yes.
Okay, I'll be right up.
Well, they're ready | to see me upstairs.
Thanks, guys.
| I really appreciate your moral support\.
We'll walk you to the elevator.
Do you have any money? - Yes, I have money.
| - Then you don't mind buying? The plane will be waiting for you | at :.
You're at the Plaza tonight, and the | board meeting is at in the morning.
It sure was a hell of a lot simpler | before I took the company public.
I'm beginning to think we're getting | too big for our own good.
- All right, tear them up, counselor.
| - Thanks.
They'd be stupid not to take you.
I'll meet you back at C.
D.
's | and let you know what happened.
- Hold the car, please.
| - Excuse me, officer.
Walker, what? - That guy.
| - Which one? The one in the maroon suit.
| He looks familiar to me.
Maybe he's your long-lost cousin | or you owe him money.
What money? You lost all of mine.
The chopper should get us there | with about five minutes to spare, then they'll take you to the airport\.
Helicopter.
| Good way to beat traffic.
Not the only way.
- Larue, that's who that is.
| - Who? Victor Larue.
| He's bad news, Trivette.
Sorry, nobody gets off.
- Excuse me? | - Just step back.
- What the hell is this? | - Wrong attitude, Mr.
Trask.
Nobody gets heroic.
He's got Alex.
Look, I don't know what you think | you're doing, but my pilot is not gonna | fly you anywhere.
- Really? | - Yeah.
Mine will.
- In the chopper.
| - Move it now.
Let's go.
Come on.
Come on, get in there.
Get in.
Put it in lock.
Come on.
Yeah, this is Trivette.
| I'm on the top of the Trask Building.
Alert\ all Air Traffic Control | to report\ sightings of a blue and white Bell Jet helicopter | heading south from Ridgeland area.
This is Walker.
| Get a chopper up here now.
- All right.
It's off.
| - Off the stud? Yup.
All right, boys, let's go.
Careful.
All right, here we go.
- Yeah, okay.
| - All right.
- You all right up front? | - Yeah.
Stop.
Let's go, come on.
Come on! Let's go.
Well, if you're kidnapping him, | what do you want with us? Well, you're bargaining chips, | sweetheart\.
I might need to trade for a favor, or drop a dead body on them | now and then, to prove I'm serious.
Look, please, | I just got on the elevator.
I've got kids at home.
Well, remember that | and do what you're told.
- Go, just go in.
| - Let's go.
- Get out, now.
| - Move it, move it.
Please, please, don't hurt\ us.
| Let me call my people.
Let me go.
- They'll give you anything you want.
| - Call your people.
- I promise, they will.
| - Yes, they will.
In our time and in our way.
| Okay, he's clean, let's go.
- Oh, very nice.
| - She's an assistant DA.
Well, this is really getting interesting, | isn't it? Now, you don't have any weapons | hidden in there, do you? You tried to hurt\ me.
Okay, she's clean.
Move it, move it.
- Walker? | - Yeah, go ahead, Trivette.
You were right about Victor Larue.
We got an FBI bulletin on him | a while back.
He was kicked out of the military and they said he was too ruthless | in his missions.
Prone to overkill.
Right now, he's wanted for a series | of high-dollar kidnappings.
- Yeah, he killed them all.
| - What? I remember his file.
Ransom or not, | he killed all the hostages.
- That's right.
| - Okay, keep at it, Trivette.
There's nothing here.
Head south.
I got a traffic copter over in Garland | that located Trask's helicopter.
It landed at an abandoned warehouse | at Miller Road and Route .
- I got units en route.
| - I'll meet you there.
Did you get that? Let's go.
Keep a sharp eye.
All right, let's move it.
Come on, come on.
- All right.
Come on.
| - Let's go.
Come on out.
- This isn't right.
| - Come on.
- This isn't right.
| - Come on.
Shut the doors.
All right.
Is everybody comfort\able? What? What? | What's with all the long faces.
Look, this is | It's really not complicated.
Mr.
Trask Oil here | is wort\h a lot of money, okay? And we are gonna get some of it.
Now, this might take a little while.
My people will pay.
I guarantee it.
Excuse me.
I was talking.
| I had the floor.
That's good, because I'm gonna | get them on the phone right now and see if your life is wort\h | $ million.
- Oh, dear God.
| - It's all right.
They'll pay.
When you're finished with this, | talk to Mrs.
Meeks' family.
Find out if she needs | any special medication.
This damn rain has washed out | all the tracks.
What if something goes wrong? What if? What if they don't? I mean, the police might force them | not to give into their demands.
- I mean | - It's gonna be all right.
You've gotta hold yourself together, | Mr.
Trask, for all of our sakes.
Excuse me.
I don't mean to cause any trouble, | but I really need to use the rest room.
She can't get out.
All right.
Don't be too long.
Don't lock the door.
- Trivette.
| - Jimmy.
- Alex.
| - Alex, where are you? I don't have much time.
Listen.
We landed in Garland, they | blindfolded us, loaded us into a van.
We drove for about minutes, | until we came to some kind of bridge.
Then we traveled | for about ten minutes more and we came | to a train crossing.
Then we went onto a gravel road and stopped at a gate | with some cattle guard.
I think we're in some kind of estate.
Time's up.
Excuse me.
Let's go.
Come on.
We're getting low on fuel.
There's a bridge about six miles west | of that warehouse off the service road.
I got it.
There's a bridge.
| Over here.
Stay over the service roads.
| Veer west.
I said, veer west.
Walker, we're onto them now.
| We'll get her.
What if they caught her | making that call, Trivette? There's the rail line.
That could be | where she heard the whistle.
All right, now you're supposed to get | to some ranch land.
She said an estate.
There's an estate over there.
| Don't get too close.
Land over there.
We'll check it out.
We should call for backup.
Make sure they approach with caution, | Trivette.
Would you care for some wine? We have a nice chardonnay here.
| It's not too pretentious.
You know, I've known | a few assistant DA's in my time, but I don't recall any | looking quite like you.
Am I supposed to be flattered | by that? Absolutely.
I've got very | high standards for my women.
So are you somebody's woman, | Alexandra? I don't see a ring.
I'm not married.
Maybe a boyfriend, then? Maybe more than one? Let's see.
A successful woman | like you dates who? An airline pilot? No? What about a pro athlete? Wrong again.
A politician? Definitely not a politician.
Well, well, | and she has a sense of humor too.
Seems to me you have everything | a man could ever want.
I'll bet the guys just can't get | enough of you.
Listen, | I have connections at city hall.
If you let us go, I could Don't waste your time.
| I don't even wanna talk about it.
I can negotiate a deal for you, | for when you're caught.
You You just don't give up, do you? The men I was with back there | are Texas Rangers, and they don't give up, either.
Yeah, backwater cops | in cowboy costumes.
I'm shaking already.
Look at that.
Oh, no.
Then maybe you should think | about this.
A man is dead, and Texas | is a capital-punishment state.
Now, any effort\ that you make | to do the right thing will be taken into | consideration by the judge.
Well, that's assuming | that I'm caught.
You will be.
But I can help you.
And that's assuming | that you are still alive.
I said "with caution.
" It's impossible.
How could they | find us already? There's no way.
Those two? We gotta get out of here.
| Mox, Boyer, pack it in, let's go.
- Move it.
Come on.
Get up now.
| - Right now.
- Let me talk to them.
| - Get in.
- I'll get them to back off.
| - Shut up.
In the van.
- Needless to say I appreciate the help.
| - No problem.
Damn it.
- I'm gonna borrow your wheels.
| - Sure.
- You got two over the hill over there.
| - All right, we'll book them.
Which way, left or right? Which way, left or right? Left.
Walker.
I don't believe this.
This operation was planned | down to the minute, and now I'm running | from Texas Rangers! How did they know where we were? There's no way.
They couldn't have.
Maybe it's the van.
| We should burn it.
The van, burn the van.
| What a great idea, Mox.
- What do you think about that? | - It couldn't be.
How could they get to it? | It couldn't happen.
- What are you doing? | - I just need a minute.
For what? | Are you out of your mind? - Maybe | - Don't let them get riled up.
Maybe there's something | we can do.
- Maybe there's a way out of here.
| - I don't consider a body bag a way out.
And that's where I'll wind up | if you don't do what they say.
I know what men like these are like.
| I've prosecuted dozens of them.
They don't care | if they hurt\ other people.
The don't care | if you cooperate or not.
Either way, they're gonna kill you | if they want to.
She's right.
We've all known that | since the beginning.
No, I'm ordering you to stay here.
Mr.
Trask, believe it or not, | I don't work for you, and I'm not gonna sit here | and wait to die.
I'm gonna do something.
- Go for it.
| - Good luck.
She'll be sorry.
| You just wait and see.
She'll be sorry.
You just don't give up, do you? We should've gone left.
But I'd have gone right too.
- Jimmy.
| - Jimmy, we're at - Trace me.
| - It's her.
Alex? They got her.
Maisy, I need a priority trace | to a cellular call to my number from ADA Cahill's private number.
Yes, yes, we're locked on right now.
What are you doing here? I just needed a moment alone.
You needed a moment alone? To pray.
You know.
I just wanted to pray.
| You can't hold that against me.
- Tell her to hurry.
| - Come on, Maisy.
Well, I've got some good news.
Your prayers have been answered.
Don't touch me.
All right, they're onto her phone.
Don't touch me.
South side.
Oak Cliff.
Map coordinates, map C.
Let go of me.
You're mine.
I've got you.
No! - Animals! | - Shut up.
Sit down.
No! - Got it.
| - No.
Larue! Larue! Larue! - No.
| - Can you hear me? Come to the phone, Larue.
Larue, come to the phone, | you son of a bitch.
Of course, and that's how | they knew how to find us.
You wanted me, you got me.
| Who is this? Touch her again | and I'll rip your heart\ out.
You're the one on the roof.
- Is that right? | - That's right.
And you'd better let them go.
And why would I do that? Because if you don't, | you're a dead man.
Move, come on, get, get.
| Move, move, move it, move it.
- Hurry up.
Let's move.
| - Go, go.
Let's move it.
| We're out of here.
Let's go.
Coordinate C, | Oak Cliff warehouse district, approximately Elmont and Dale.
All units respond, but do not approach.
| This is a hostage situation.
Do not approach.
Or I'm gonna be all over your butts.
Just don't attract attention.
Just stay at the speed limit, will you? Let's drop them | and get the hell out of here, man.
This thing hasn't gone right | from the beginning.
As long as we keep moving, | we're fine.
No surprise.
Nobody home.
Trivette.
Thanks, Maisy.
She's got nothing.
Alex had this on.
- Dial Larue.
| - He's never gonna answer.
Guys like Larue | always have to be in charge, but when they get rattled, | they make mistakes.
One, two, out.
Redial.
One, two, out.
Redial.
One, two, out.
Redial.
What the hell's with that phone? | They're driving me crazy.
They're crazy if they think | that I'm gonna pick it up and give them a chance | to trace me.
- Throw the damn thing out the window.
| - Who are you talking to? When the time comes, I'm gonna give | this cowboy something to listen to.
Maybe he doesn't even have | the phone on anymore.
All he has to do is switch it off.
He's got the phone on.
He could take it out on Alex.
I know that! Just dial.
Don't run the light.
Don't push me.
Mr.
Larue, | hold for Mr.
Walker, please.
I'm right behind you, Larue.
Stay out of this, cowboy.
| I warned you.
Maisy, we got him again.
You thought you had it all figured out, | didn't you? But you've got one big problem.
| Me.
Back off or they all die.
I see one cowboy hat behind me | and I'll kill them all.
Give it up, Larue.
| It's your only chance.
Did you get anything? Yeah, we are right behind him.
| He's in this area.
Go, go, go! Here, dial him back.
- What now? | - Just shut up and drive.
- Ranger's got him spooked.
| - Shut up! I promise you, the world will end | and everyone will die before I am spooked | by some cowboy.
Look, you don't know Ranger Walker, | but I do, and he is never gonna let up.
He will never leave us, so why don't | you just drop us at the corner.
Drop? Okay.
Okay.
How about I drop some dead bodies | out of the back of this van? You think that'll work then, huh? I'd start\ with you, | but we still have a date.
Ringing, ringing, ringing.
Pull up in front of the bus.
He knows what we're doing.
Yeah, I know.
- Excuse me.
| - Hi.
- Could you hold on a second? | - Yeah.
My friends need to get on the bus.
- No problem.
| - Yeah, thanks a lot.
- Everybody, stay down and shut up.
| - All right, we're taking the bus.
Everybody keep still or we start\ | shooting.
All right, let's go, man.
Back of the bus.
Okay.
All right, you drive.
When you get to the edge of the city, | leave the bus and disappear until I contact you, | okay? All right, if anybody gets in your way, | just kill them.
Got you.
- He picked up.
| - Hello? Larue? What's that sound like to you? | A motor? Yeah, it's not the same background | sound, though.
- It sounds like a bus.
| - A bus.
There it is.
I saw two of them, one gun.
Take the wheel.
Yeah, why don't I take the wheel.
Let me get this right.
| My part\ner has just leaped from the hood of this moving car | to the back of that moving bus.
Yeah, that's right.
What's he doing? The driver! Hold on! Yeah! Follow the officer.
Get me to a hospital, man.
| My shoulder's on fire.
Where are the hostages? - I don't know.
| - You'd better know.
Look, after the safe house, | all bets were off.
He's waiting for money.
| I don't know where.
- What money are you talking about? | - Waiting for the money.
For the oil people to deliver the money.
How are they supposed to deliver it? Whoever's carrying the money | was to go to a roadside call box, number on LBJ, | and wait for a call at :.
Any units in the area of emergency | call box L , , LBJ, be on the lookout for a caller there.
| Report\, but do not respond.
This is L - .
| I have your caller sighted.
I've passed his location.
| Please instruct.
L -, don't go near the guy.
| I repeat, do not respond.
Lives are on the line.
Subject vehicle exited LBJ | at Cuttler Road exit.
Now moving south | to Mainway Boulevard.
We're two blocks away.
We're at Mainway and Third, | heading south.
I'm on Mainway and Fifth.
| I have your man in sight.
All right, we got him.
| We'll take it from here.
Thanks.
- Do you need backup? | - I said, we got him! Now let's see what happens.
You hear something? Look.
Hope he doesn't pee on the money.
Move it on in.
That's it.
Up higher, higher.
Hey! You know what this is, | don't you, cowboy? They're all gonna die! Walker! Are you gonna take a chance | with their lives? I don't think so.
| Now lower the car with my money in it.
You want it, come and get it.
Everybody on the floor! Come back here.
Walker! Let us out of here! - Walker.
Jimmy.
| - Hey there, girl.
Everything's all right.
Here.
Watch your head.
- Okay.
Are you all right? | - Just hold me.
One week.
One lousy week, | I'm gone to my nephew's wedding, and everything goes to hell | in a hand basket.
Are you referring | to something specific? I most assuredly am.
| You let them kidnap Alex.
Oh, we let Alex get kidnapped.
If she'd have been at lunch with me, | that never would've happened.
And, fellas, | that's not the worst part\.
I'm sure you're gonna tell us | what the worst part\ is.
Exactly.
She's interviewing the firm | of Thomas, Bart\on - Bell | - Clements.
Yeah, yeah, that's the firm.
| She's gonna take the job, fellas.
I feel it in my bones.
- You feel it in your bones? | - Here she comes.
- Hi.
| - Hey.
- Can I get a cup of coffee, please? | - Yes, ma'am.
Well, how'd it go? - Good.
| - Yeah? And they offered me more than | I ever dreamed I was wort\h, including a key | to my very own washroom.
Well, that would be hard to pass up.
That's what I thought.
Until I realized that they survived | by defending men like Victor Larue.
So you turned it down.
- You got it, cowboy.
| - Yeah.
See, fellas, I told you, no way in | the world was she gonna take that job.
No, sirree.
I just felt it in my bones.
- He just felt it in his bones.
| - In his bones.
