02x14 - The Death Wind

[bunniefuu]

[theme music]

Captain.

Doesn't look like much to fret over, Sam.

Steady as she goes.

As she goes, sir.

I bet a flotsam ain't about to hold you back

from Port Spencer now. Huh, captain?

Well, it's those Sunrise Avenue girls I'm worried about.

Three weeks without you, they told me

the poor little things go berserk.

[dramatic music]

[expl*si*n]

Mike! How do I stand?

Mike ain't here, captain.

This is Swede.

Main engines out, steam lines are ruptured.

And we're stocking that tank water.

All stop. Abandon ship.

Sam, get the boats in the water.

Where's Mike?

I don't see him, captain.

Might have got up to the main hatch.

[Marvin Miller] "The FBI."

A Quinn Martin Warner Brothers production.

Starring Efrem Zimbalist Jr.

Also starring Philip Abbott..

Stephen Brooks.

With guest stars Ralph Bellamy..

Elizabeth Allen.

And special guest star Mark Richman.

Tonight's episode, "The Death Wind."

[instrumental music]

[Marvin Miller] The same paths of the sea

which had been the familiar peaceful roadways

of the Colona Princess

had brought her to violent death.

A coast guard marine board of inquiry convened in Honolulu

to investigate what seemed like an unfortunate accident.

But neither the board nor her owner

Captain Benjamin Jennerson knew

was that information received by the FBI in Washington

raised the possibility that the sinking

might have been deliberate.

And that the death of chief engineer Michael Smith

Jennerson's friend of 20 years

might have been m*rder.

Mr. Loku, was it unusual for Captain Jennerson

to ignore items of waste in the path of the ship?

We were in a hurry, sir.

You previously steamed through comparable flotsam?

Yes, sir, like it was nothing.

Thank you, Mr. Loku.

Captain Benjamin Jennerson.

Captain, on the morning of 11 August

you were in command of the Colona Princess

out of Honolulu Oahu

and bound for Port Spencer, Hawaii?

That's correct, sir.

It's been established that you were

proceeding in excess of normal speed.

- 'Yes, sir.' - Why was this?

I had my first full load of cargo on some months.

I was anxious to make delivery.

Your, uh, residence is where?

Port Spencer.

'You were heading for your home port?'

[Captain Benjamin] 'Yes, sir.'

Did you consider that your excess of speed

might have been a hazard to the Princess?

Or to other craft?

My ship may have been old, sir.

She was a hazard to no one.

I wonder if I might raise a point here, captain.

Oh, captain, Mr. Charles Sprague

legal council for the Pacific Marine Insurance companies

asked to be present.

Yes, sir.

Go ahead, Mr. Sprague.

Isn't it true that in July of last year

you were advised that your vessel was in need

of very substantial repairs?

'And that a three-year marine insurance policy'

'terminating at the end of this year'

'would not be renewed without those repairs?'

That's true, yes.

'And weren't you further advised that even'

with these added repairs

there was no guarantee that the policy would be renewed?

Yes, you told me that.

Were these repairs made before

the Colona Princess exploded and sank?

No, they had not.

Wouldn't it be fair to state then

that on August 11th you took an old vessel

'which my company regarded as uninsurable'

into an area which contained obvious hazards to navigation.

Mr. Sprague--

An area that you could easily

have avoided by a simple change in course.

Who could possibly have known there was a mine out there?

That's what sunk my ship.

I have nothing further at this time.

However I wish to state

that my company is withholding payment

until it is satisfied that all the facts in this accident

are fully known.

Mr. Sprague..

this board is to establish those facts.

We are even more anxious to clear up this matter.

No more serious charge can be made against

a merchant marine officer

'than that he deliberately endangered his ship'

'or the lives of its crew.'

- Inspector. - Warren, good to see you.

Welcome to the islands.

SAC Berwick, Special Agent Rhodes.

- How do you do? - Rhodes.

Board of investigation's under way?

And moving fast.

They've taken the testimony of Jennerson and his crew.

How does it look?

The men in his crew are devoted to him.

They've backed him a 100%.

Come on, we're just in time to see the wind up.

It is the opinion of this marine board of investigation

that the Colona Princess struck a mine

of the type used by the imperial Japanese navy

during World w*r II.

But there was no evidence of negligence

'imprudent seamanship or misconduct'

'on the part of the ship's personnel.'

'The entire crew performed their duties in a commendable manner'

'and in accordance with the best traditions of the sea.'

[indistinct chatter]

Captain, congratulations. I knew you'd make it.

I'm almost sorry we can't leave it at that.

[Warren] These slates of copper wire were collected

by coast guard cutters in the same area

where the Princess went down.

They all seem to be part of one continuous copper wire exploded

and, uh, scattered by the blast.

I've sent samples to Washington.

Warren, could these have come from the ship?

Well, they might have but the coast guard divers

who've been over the wreck haven't found anything similar

in the exploded section of the hull.

Then the line might have been attached to the mine to

hold it in a fixed position in the water.

Yes, sir.

And these are from the mine itself?

[Warren] 'That's right.'

Imperial Japanese navy World w*r II.

Isn't that a little unusual at this late date?

No, not as unusual as you might think.

Most of these islands were protected

by mine fields of some sort.

Over the years, the individual mines break way.

Every so often the navy finds one or two

in the lanes of heavy traffic.

They blow 'em up.

Warren, I understand the coast guard divers

are still going out every day.

- 'Yes.' - How come?

The Colona Princess was carrying

cylinders of chlorine in one of her holds, inspector.

Chlorine?

They've kept it quiet to avoid public panic.

Well, is there any danger at this point?

So far the divers have determined

that the cylinders are intact.

But if that chlorine should escape..

Well, mixed with water it becomes

the same poisonous gas used in World w*r I.

And with the high wind to spread it.

[instrumental music]

- What are you doing? - Paying some bills.

My masters' fees are due.

Well, I didn't think you'd have to pay that now.

I was cleared.

Somebody could offer me another ship.

- There is the possibility. - Of course.

Of course.

[sighs] Ben.

Are we going to stay home again tonight?

Was there some place you wanted to go?

[inhales sharply] Not especially.

I just wasn't sure how long this period of mourning

was supposed to go on.

Forget it, Gloria.

You tell me to forget it and you won't forget it

not for a minute.

Uh, you had a ship, it sank.

Alright, accidents happen.

Why do you keep blaming yourself?

I said, forget it!

She was a fine ship once. I wish you could've seen her.

I have seen quite enough of her in the last six years.

But she was tired.

She was worn out.

[inhales sharply]

And I couldn't afford to fix anything.

Oh, well, that was my fault, naturally.

I didn't say it was your fault.

You've said it often enough before.

- Gloria. - Alright.

Please.

I don't want to quarrel.

Neither do I.

I'm going to the club. Do you want to come along?

No.

- 'Gloria.' - What?

When you..

...go alone..

...uh, who do you find to talk with?

Oh, it varies, Ben.

Last night the place was full of movie stars

and I just went from one to the other

laughing and dancing.

'And last week it was the international set.'

'Right off the "Rivera."'

And before that, let's see..

I'm sorry.

I've left you alone a lot, I know.

I'm sorry about that.

All you need is your ship.

But it was always you first.

You know that, always you.

Well..

...have a good time.

I'll look in on you later.

Just be sure you come back to me.

I always have.

[instrumental music]

[theme music]

John.

- What have you got? - Hi, Mr. Ward.

There's something very interesting

on that mine fragment from Honolulu.

I've been going over a cross section of the skin.

Would you like to take a look at it?

Yeah.

Now, you can see it's been given three separate coats of paint

in addition to the initial primer.

'Now, the bottom one, the original one'

was probably applied when the mine was manufactured in Japan.

And the second one?

Well, it matches a sample of Japanese paint

we've got in our files.

It was probably applied about the same time.

The analysis shows

considerable erosion in both layers.

Erosion, huh?

From the, uh, salt water in the tides?

No, sir, neither coating shows any evidence

of exposure to ocean water.

Well, it is an underwater mine.

It is. There's no doubt about that.

What about the third layer?

Well, now, that's the interesting part.

A sample analysis indicates that the final coating

was probably developed and marketed

by an American firm.

You see, it's a protective paint

one which forms up one of the newer synthetic plastics.

It wasn't marketed until, oh..

the late '50s in the United States.

Can you tell how long it was in the water?

Well, not the specific length of time

but due to the general appearance of the paint

it's reasonable to assume

that the mine wasn't subjected to those conditions

for very long.

How long? Less than a year?

Oh, no, less than a month.

It couldn't possibly have drifted away

from the World w*r II field.

No, sir, that was anchored there deliberately.

Well, it might help to have that anchor.

- Don't you think, John? - Yes.

[engine revving]

The Princess went straight to the bottom.

So we know where she hit the mine.

We're dead center of that now

but we have no idea of the actual length of the cable.

Any problem of depth here?

Well, nothing you shouldn't be able to handle.

[dramatic music]

[splashing]

[splashing]

[water bubbling]

[music continues]

[water bubbling]

[music continues]

[dramatic music]

[water bubbling]

[water bubbling]

[water bubbling]

Chlorine gas. Let's get out of here.

[dramatic music]

[engine revving]

[birds chirping]

[door shuts]

[instrumental music]

[door shuts]

Hammond in yet?

Tell him I wanna see him.

[music continues]

[dramatic music]

You look different without your sailor suit on, Ben.

You seem smaller.

I talked to Sam Loku today.

He was down on the pier looking for work.

He says there's a rumor that the FBI's on this case now.

Oh.

And what did you say?

Nothing.

But you're worried, right?

Not about the FBI.

Then what's your problem?

Rum, straight.

Hammond.

That..

...Gloria seem to be having

a good time here last night?

She had a few drinks.

Few drinks, and people convince themselves

they're havin' a good time.

Did she dance with anybody?

How many?

[sighs]

Ben, I mean, uh..

you don't wanna take her dancing.

- What do you expect? - I've tried.

I'd make a fool of myself. I'm clumsy.

How many?

I didn't notice, one or two maybe.

Ben, why don't you give her up?

I couldn't explain it to you. You wouldn't understand.

You wanted money.

That's all there is to understand.

Alright, you got it.

Now, what are you complaining about?

Lemme tell you something, Hammond.

I went to sea when I was 13 years old.

I shipped out with cut-throats

'that'd make you look like the Angel Gabriel'

'in comparison.'

'Butchers. Kidnappers.'

Men who'd k*ll their own mothers

if there was five cents profit at it.

But in all that time

and in all that company..

...I never met a captain who'd sink his own ship.

Much less hire a jailbird like me to, uh..

place the mine, huh?

But, you know, Ben, maybe these other fellas

never had your reason.

Gloria isn't a reason.

Gloria is a disease with me.

Yeah.

A fashionable and expensive one.

You know the terrible part of it?

The $20,000, even if Sprague pays it

even that won't keep her with me very long.

[instrumental music]

[intercom buzzing] Yes.

[woman on intercom] 'Inspector Erskine'

'and Special Agent Rhodes are here.'

Send them right in.

There was a message at the pier.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Tegg, US Coast and Geodetic Survey

Inspector Erskine.

- Hello, Mr. Tegg. - How do you do?

And Special Agent Rhodes.

- How do you do, sir? - How do you do?

The coast guard has consulted Mr. Tegg

concerning the tidal effects on the sunken ship

the slope of the ocean floor, and so on.

He's also been told about the cargo of chlorine.

One of the cylinders already has a leak, Warren.

I think we'd better ask the coast guard

to try and raise that chlorine as soon as possible.

Yes, but Mr. Tegg, has been following

the progress of the case and, uh..

Something else has come up.

You better tell him about it, Mr. Tegg.

Our instruments have picked up a series of seismic shocks.

Here, let me show you.

They're occurring up the southern coast of Chile.

Wasn't there a big earthquake in Chile a few years ago?

In May of 1960.

It produced a tsunami.

A tidal wave.

That almost destroyed Hilo and Port Spencer.

How bad are these shocks?

Bad enough to create another tidal wave.

Are you suggesting that this may upset the chlorine in the ship?

Mr. Rhodes, if an underwater slippage occurs

and a major wave develops and hits the island

the backwash will pound that ship to pieces.

Who's the mayor of Port Spencer?

A man named Eto.

I'd like you to set up a meeting with him

Captain Cargile, and Mr. Tegg.

Yes, sir. For what time?

As soon as they can get here.

[dramatic music]

[instrumental music]

Captain Jennerson.

Ah, Swede. Hi, Swede. Sit down, sit down.

- Drink? - Rye.

Rye. And another.

Just, uh, lay it on the ice, huh?

You know, captain, I, uh, I go back 20 years with you.

Right.

Fact is only one man goes longer.

Mike.

Mike was with me in w*r.

I know.

I was the youngest skipper in the marine.

Seventeen convoy crossings.

Mike was with me in all of 'em.

I know that, sir.

For your good health, Swede.

Well, uh..

Look, sir, I've, uh..

'got this offer to, uh, to go to work..'

...with another captain.

So, I...I thought it was alright with you

I'd, uh..

You take that job, Swede.

'But stay a-loose'

because one of these days

we're going back to sea.

New ship, back to sea.

- We sure will, sir. - Sure will.

You, you alright, captain?

Seventeen convoy crossings.

Never lost a ship.

Well, I, uh..

...think I'd better be going, sir.

[music continues]

Keep him supplied.

Well, don't say hello.

Hello.

You been waiting long?

Doesn't matter.

Where were you?

Was at the beach.

At the Southern Surf.

Had a couple of drinks with some friends.

That new blonde, c*ck waitress?

No. That old, red-headed, c*ck waitress.

If you consider 23 old.

Come on, Gloria.

I saw Ben's car outside.

Well, did you?

The admiral's been drinking pretty heavy lately.

You better watch it.

Or maybe you should stop pouring it down him.

Why?

Keeps him out of mischief, doesn't it?

And out of your beautiful hair.

'Now, why don't you stop worrying about him?'

'He's got everything he needs right there at the bar.'

'A bottle, a clean glass'

'and a lot of lovely dreams.'

Well, right now he's sitting there commanding

all his ships at sea.

Oh, shut up.

You're very nervous today

with the admiral's concerns, sweetheart.

I don't know why I come here.

He's a better man than you'll ever be.

You're not getting any argument from me there.

But you wouldn't believe how may wives have told me

about the better finer men they were married to.

And I have often wondered

why don't they stay home with their better finer men?

Maybe that's where I ought to be, right now, with him.

Yeah. Sure. Why not?

Why don't you walk out right now, hm?

It'll, uh, give you a lot of class.

A departure from the usual form.

[instrumental music]

[theme music]

Evacuation?

When do you mean?

Now?

Can it be done, Mr. Eto?

Well, we...do have an evacuation plan.

We've had one since the '60 wave.

But are you sure there'll even be a tidal wave, Mr. Tegg?

We are at this point, yes, sir.

Does Mayor Eto know about the chlorine?

Yes.

Where is the wave now, Mr. Tegg?

Here, 6200 miles from Port Spencer.

It's crusting at two and a half feet

and it's traveling at a little more than 420 miles an hour.

Perfectly harmless..

...till it hits that beach.

Doesn't give us much time.

It's nearly 6 p.m.

I'd say that wave will strike the Princess

at approximately 9 a.m. tomorrow morning.

You seem to know a great deal about this wave, Mr. Tegg.

Everything..

...except how to stop it.

You say even a small wave may damage the cylinders?

Release the chlorine?

Unless they can be raised before the wave hits.

And if there's a wind.

Captain.

'How long is a salvage operation like this'

'normally scheduled for?'

- Three weeks. - We've got 15 hours.

We'll do a weekend.

[dramatic music]

Holler it to the kids out first.

[dramatic music]

Right, I'll tell him.

Cargile, his divers have cut through the hull.

All of the cylinders are intact.

They've plugged that leak you discovered

so, we're all set until the tidal wave hits.

How many have they raised?

Well, it's a slow process.

They're half buried and silty.

Hopes to have the first one up by sunrise, with luck.

[telephone rings]

Berwick. Oh, yes. Hang on.

Mr. Ward.

- Yes, Arthur? - Lewis.

We may have something further on the expl*sive used.

On February 7th, Japanese naval mine

were stolen from a surplus depot on Okinawa.

The mine was defused and had been quoted as

part of a routine maintenance.

The case is still open.

Well, if it was defused, it might've been shipped out

I'll run a check on it here.

What was the date on that Okinawa theft again?

February 7th.

Have you come up with anything more on Jennerson?

He's under 24-hour surveillance.

He's made one interesting contact.

Thanks.

The owner of a bar in Port Spencer.

"Theodore Dowel Hammond.

"1951, court martialed, Seoul, Korea.

"Black market transactions.

"Found guilty, stockade, dishonorable discharge.

"1956, as*ault on a person.

"1958, suspicion of armed robbery.



Nice boy.

Oh, something even more interesting.

He sees a good deal of Jennerson's wife, socially.

Uh-huh.

How's the evacuation going? Any panic?

None at all. These are remarkable people.

Well, they're sending more gas masks from the mainland.

There ought to enough for everybody on the island

by noon, tomorrow.

- Will that help? - By noon?

- Yeah, that'll help. - I hope so.

You know..

I used to have a recurrent nightmare

when I was a boy.

I'd be at a ballgame

and the pitcher would throw a hard, fast one

and I'd know it was going to hit the batter

and I'd yell.

But there wasn't anything I could do to help.

Hm, sometimes that's the hardest place to be, Art.

- In the stands. - Yeah.

- Well, good luck, Lewis. - Thanks.

Have 'em get the plane ready, I'm going to Port Spencer.

Yes, sir.

[music continues]

[music continues]

[man on radio] 'Evacuation highway for residence'

'living north and west of Molino Boulevard'

'will be branch road, eight-three.'

'Eight-three.'

'Please stay tuned to this station'

'for all evacuation instruction.'

Jennerson left his house a little after 9:00.

Made no special contacts.

He's down by the pier now.

Oh, the court order on the bank records came through

where the Port Spencer SRA

examined the Jennerson accounts himself.

There was a checking account in both of their names

and one in Mrs. Jennerson's name alone.

Any luck on the anchor weights we found?

Yes, a hardware at Shaneda, Ling and Sons carries the item

but there's no record of either of the Jennersons

having purchased them.

Find out where the clerks were evacuated to

and have 'em shown pictures of Hammond.

'Alright.'

- Where's Mrs. Jennerson now? - 'She just returned home.'

- Alone? - 'Mm-hmm.'

Let's pay her a visit.

'Well, do you think that's a good idea?'

[jazz music]

Well, she's bound to tell her husband the FBI was around.

She'll probably tell Hammond too.

Be interesting to find out which one

she tells first, won't it?

Yes, sir.

- 'Who is it?' - FBI, Mrs. Jennerson.

My name's Erskine.

FBI?

Well, if you wanna see Ben, he isn't here.

Actually, we'd like to talk to you.

Me?

Wh-why?

What am I supposed to have done?

[instrumental music]

Come in.

- This is Special Agent Rhodes. - Mrs. Jennerson.

Well, won't you come in and sit down?

Thank you.

I've just been listening to the news

about that tidal wave and the chlorine.

Well, that's terrible.

You can't imagine what it's doing to Ben.

Mrs. Jennerson, are you acquainted

with a man named Theodore Hammond?

Do I have to answer these questions?

No, you don't. Would you rather consult a lawyer first?

Well, no, I, I guess it would be alright

to admit I know Ted, yes.

I am acquainted with Mr. Theodore Hammond.

Mrs. Jennerson, we obtained a court order

allowing us to examine two checking accounts

in a Port Spencer bank.

One in your name and another in Mr. Hammond's.

What right?

[Erskine] 'In the last year, Mrs. Jennerson'

you've apparently sent checks to Hammond

totaling well over five thousand dollars.

They were in repayment

for small loans made usually at the bar.

- To you or to the captain? - To both of us.

Your payment seemed to have been made at

fairly regular intervals?

Well, there were times I'd run short of household cash

and I'd borrow the money from Ted and then

repay him by check.

There was a six-week period between January and March

when, uh, no payments were made?

Well, I believe Mr. Hammond was out of town at that time.

Do you know where he went?

Okinawa, I think.

And Mrs. Jennerson, have you been informed

of the evacuation procedure?

- Yes. - 'Good.'

Well, thanks very much, Mrs. Jennerson.

- Uh, uh, Mr. Erskine? - Yes?

I-I-I.. I don't understand.

Uh, Ben was cleared by the Board of Investigation

and I certainly haven't done anything wrong.

So, uh, just, what are you investigating?

- Goodnight, Mrs. Jennerson. - Goodnight.

[music continues]

[theme music]

Ben?

I told you to get out of Port Spencer.

I've been waiting for you. Where've you been?

Um, uh..

What're you doing here?

- Ben? - What?

Two men from the FBI came to the house last night.

To see me?

They're investigating something.

They didn't tell me what.

Ben?

What really happened to the Princess?

- She hit a mine. - Accidentally?

Accidentally.

- Gloria, there isn't much time. - I know that.

Oh, Ben.

I'm so grateful to you.

There's nothing to be grateful for.

I'm not kidding myself about what I was, when you found me.

Popping cars in San Diego

was the best thing I've done in my life.

Forget that now.

I made the mistake.

I tried to turn you into a sea captain's wife, I was wrong.

We'll take the insurance money

and we'll go back to the mainland.

Maybe we'll open a little business.

You go on home and pack.

I wanna watch the salvage over there.

I'll be along in a while, alright?

Alright.

Goodbye.

[music continues]

[engine cranks]

[dramatic music]

[music continues]

But the fact is, we simply don't have as much time

as we thought we had.

Another slippage has occurred. Here.

That wave is now crusting at three feet.

And it's speed is increased to 500 miles an hour.

Which will put in Port Spencer when?

Approximately 7:30, tomorrow morning.

You sure about that?

Alright, Mike, thanks.

We found the man who sold the anchor weights.

He's positively identified Hammond

as one one who bought them.

Why didn't you leave him a note?

Because I was worried about him.

I wanted to make sure he was alright.

And is he alright?

No.

Then you wasted time.

What else did the FBI ask you?

I, I don't remember.

You're pushing my patience, sweetheart.

I still don't see why you couldn't have called me

as soon as they left your house.

I didn't know you'd have to run.

Could've been out of here by now.

Without me?

Why not?

We could've met somewhere later on.

They aren't after you, sweetie.

Won't they still be after you later on, when we meet?

If we meet?

Ted?

Why do they want you?

[sighs] Gloria, just shut up.

Ben did sink the Princess.

Did you help him?

No.

You're lying.

But how you ever talked him into it?

Listen..

I didn't have to talk him into anything.

There was 40,000 insurance

split right down the middle.

Ben loved that ship.

That's right.

He loved that ship with the love that was touching to see.

But he was sick, baby sweetheart.

Diseased up here. You know what I mean?

Nothing could help him because he loved you more.

He would've blown up Honolulu to keep you in spending money.

So I figured, I might as well do my bit.

I mean, it was all headed my way anyway, wasn't it?

Listen.

Not to me.

You don't do that to me.

Inspector?

A wooden case weighing 1060 pounds

was shipped from Okinawa to Pearl Harbor via Nora Kamaru.

February 10th.

"Ultimate consignee Bertram Janacek."

"General Freight Depot, Hawaii."

"Bertram Janacek. Benjamin Jennerson."

Handwriting analysis says the signature is Jennerson's.

He signed for it.

Picked it up February 16th.

Alright, good.

Jennerson's on his way to the Crest Club.

Let's bring him in.

[instrumental music]

Gloria.

What happened?

She had an accident.

Stay away from her, Ben.

She's dead.

[intense music]

- You k*lled her. - 'It was an accident.'

She tripped, she, uh.. She hit her head.

Ben, quit pretending to be a man

'and leave this whole business alone.'

Why don't you just lie down and die?

You went down with your ship, captain.

'Everybody knows that except you.'

She knew it.

This was a..

...very profound, emotional experience

for your, little car hop.

You know, for a minute, there, Ben

it even made her faithful to you.

[g*nsh*t]

[grunting]

[music continues]

[g*nshots]

FBI, Hammond, drop the g*n.

Put your hands up.

[music continues]

[telephone ringing]

Yes. Yes?

Well, thank you very much, captain.

They got all the chlorine up.

So...it's over.

[instrumental music]

Well, she's right on schedule.

[man on radio] 'This is the fourth official emergency announcement'

'from the office of Mayor Eto.'

'The tidal wave has crested and broken over the city.'

'The time of maximum impact has begun'

'and will continue through the night.'

'There have been no deaths attributed to the storm.'
