L.A. Tower,
this is November 10-11...
requesting permission
for final vector clearance
at approach to L.A.X.
Roger, November 10-11.
Please maintain course
and altitude.
I've just received word
that a b*mb might be
on your flight...
with an altitude
detonation device
set for 1,000 feet.
Roger on that b*mb
threat, L.A. Tower.
Don't leave us
out here too long.
We've got about 90
minutes worth of fuel left.
Roger, November 10-11,
just stay out over the ocean...
and remember not to go
anywhere near a thousand feet.
The most important
thing to remember about
your digital system...
is not to be afraid
of your phone.
Remember, it's your friend.
Okay, now let's pretend that
we want to add someone else
on to our phone call.
It's simple. The party to
whom the call was made...
should depress the button
and wait for the coded beep.
Then push pound one and
the number of the party you
wish added to the conversation.
Okay. Now is everyone ready?
All right.
- Yeah, Maxwell.
- Hello, Agent Maxwell.
Why don't you try connecting
us with, uh, Agent Carlisle?
Uh, um, yeah, sure.
Uh, here we go.
Um...
Mr. Maxwell, wait
for the coded beep.
Coded... Coded beep, right.
Coded beep, okay. And...
Okay, Mr. Maxwell,
why don't we just try a
reverse relay instead, okay?
- Reverse what?
- Uh, maybe we should
try somebody else.
No, no. No problem
here. Um, hold on.
Wait for the coded beep.
Uh, uh, gentlemen, don't
press any more buttons.
Just hang up your
phones, please.
Just hang up the
telephones, okay?
I repeat, hang
up the telephones.
Okay. Let's try it again.
Maxwell.
Is this the F.B.I.?
Yeah, who's this?
My name is Chris Bunch.
I'm manager for Elvira and
I wanna report a b*mb threat.
- A what? Where?
- I got an anonymous tip...
it's on board Elvira's plane,
which is scheduled to land
at L.A.X. in about an hour.
Uh, what airline is
this, uh, Elvira on?
It's a private jet. Look.
You've got to do something.
Well, just take it
easy, uh, Mr. Bunch,
most of these calls are a hoax,
uh, but I'll, uh, I'll
get a squad together.
I'll meet you over there
at L.A.X. Just hold yourself
together, okay? Right.
- Maxwell, what
was that all about?
- It's a b*mb threat, boss.
Uh, one of you guys
get me a b*mb squad,
L.A.X., P.D.Q.
Gentlemen, don't... don't press
any more buttons please.
Think of it as a neighborhood
beautification program,
where each member
of the neighborhood...
contributes to
making the street look
as beautiful as possible.
Uh, well, Ralph and I
have always kept our lawn
nice and mowed and...
Yes you have, Pam.
But I have to fault you
on one note.
- You are out of sync
with the trash schedule.
- I beg your pardon?
The trash is picked
up on Fridays.
And without fail, you
put your trash bags
out on Monday mornings.
That means unsightly trash bags
sit out for four days.
- Ralph?
- Well, uh, I can explain.
See, we... we... we...
We collect a lot of trash
over the weekend,
and I don't know
what to do with it.
I mean, I can't leave
it in the backyard.
Trash is just one of
our concerns, Ralph.
We're also concerned
with noise pollution,
drag racing in the street,
and a general disregard
for fellow neighbors.
Well, I... I... I don't think that
really applies to my wife and I.
I mean, I think
we're just ordinary,
run-of-the-mill neighbors.
Maybe once in a while
we have the stereo up
a little bit too loud.
Okay, Ralph! Got an
emergency at L.A.X.!
Get it on. We need the suit...
You know, the you know what!
Come on, kid! This is
Force 10 from Burbank.
You got to shake it!
Uh, uh, well,
there does seem to be some
sort of emergency situation here.
And, yes, those types of
things can get a little noisy,
but it's only due to
the critical nature...
Come on, kid!
Hubba-hubba, kid! Hustle,
hustle, hustle! Let's go!
But thank you for stopping
by, and we will try and be
a lot more careful.
Don't worry about
that stuff! I'll get it later!
I can't believe this.
I always appreciate
the help, counselor,
but you really didn't need
to come along on this one.
Oh, sure. You want me to hang
around with the neighborhood
beautification committee.
No scenario you might have,
Bill, could be more difficult
than that.
Well, what have we got here,
Bill, a hijacking or something?
Nah, it's a b*mb threat
on a private plane.
I got a call about a
half an hour ago from
somebody named Chris Bunch.
He said that he got an
anonymous tip there was a b*mb
planted on this lady's plane...
Elvira he said her name was.
Chris Bunch? If it's
the same Chris Bunch
I'm thinking about,
it's not a lady, Bill, it's
the name of a rock group.
What are you talking
about? A rock group?
This guy sounded like he
was talking about his wife.
No, Elvira. Bill,
it's one of the most popular
rock groups in America today.
I mean, uh, Joey and the
kids in my class, they can't even
get a ticket to the concert.
- It's all sold out.
- You mean to tell me...
I'm running around
here like a chicken
with its head cut off...
for a bunch of
long-haired geekos
with guitars?
Bill, lives are at stake here.
Just because they're a member
of rock group doesn't mean
you can't be a little concerned.
Well, yeah. At least
I can understand why somebody
might wanna b*mb the plane.
It's probably a disgruntled
parent, some kid
who owns all their albums.
I know a guy with a
daughter like that...
Plays that junk all night long.
- Oh, Bill.
- Well, she does.
Geez louise. Will you
look at this traffic?
What a mess!
It's probably because
of the arrival of Elvira
at the airport.
Elvira.
Sinatra I could understand,
but Elvira? Give me a break.
Do the guys know yet?
Have they been told?
Now we've alerted
the c*ck, Mr.
Bunch, but in cases like this...
we usually try to keep
the passengers unaware
as long as possible.
Till they go blowing
out of the sky?
I think I'm looking for you.
My name is Maxwell, F.B.I.
Which one of you is Bunch?
Uh, I'm Bunch.
Thanks for coming,
Mr. Maxwell. Yeah.
Uh, are these your
backup agents?
Uh, yes.
Pam and Ralph
Hinkley, uh, they're, um...
Uh, attorneys.
In... In case you need any
on-the-spot legal advice.
Yeah, and Ralph here is
a freelance b*mb expert.
Now, tell me, what have we got
on this thing so far?
Apparently, the b*mb is designed
to go off on descent.
How do you know? From the tip.
Who's ever doing this is
some psycho who thinks
it'll be real funny...
if the b*mb explodes
on approach in front of
all the Dak Hampton's fans.
Dak who? Dak Hampton.
He's the leader of the band.
Oh, well, you guys
think that this prank...
is, uh, directed
toward the whole group
or just this Dak fella?
Dak is always getting
the threatening phone calls
and stuff like that.
All the rock superstars
do, but this is the first time
anything like this has happened.
Look. I want to know what
you guys are gonna do.
That plane has been
circling around up there
for 30 minutes.
All right. Now we sent it out
over the ocean so the flight
engineer could search the plane.
They're running out of fuel.
Okay, I need a few minutes
to talk my b*mb specialist here.
If you, uh, gentlemen
will excuse us, please.
Ralph, what do you
think? Can you zip up there
and find this thing?
- Well, Bill, all
I can do is try.
- Okay, go to it.
Honey... I know. Be careful.
Go on, kid. I think you better
foam the runways...
and institute whatever
emergency procedures are normal.
What are you going to
do? What happened to
the b*mb specialist?
Huh? Oh, he had to take off.
L.A. Tower, this
is November 10-11.
We can't find anything
on our onboard search.
That b*mb must be
down in the baggage hold.
We've got about 15
minutes' worth of fuel left.
We gotta work it in.
Roger, November 10-11.
Has your onboard search
alarmed any of the passengers?
No, our passengers
suspect nothing.
Everything's calm back there.
Hey!

Okay. Then it goes to F-sharp.
Uh, no, man. That doesn't...
Doesn't feel right.
What do you mean?
Man, I'm so tired,
I... I just give up.
Ah. When are they gonna
land this big bird anyway, huh?
You know, we've been
circling around up here
for at least an hour.
It's what they call
a "natural high."
That's what the doc
keeps telling me, anyway.
You haven't been doing anything,
have you, Lenny?
I'm clean.
If I weren't, I'd be dead,
so it'd be easy to tell.
Huh? Wha... Did you see that?
What was what?
Um, nothing.
Something's happened.
It's the baggage compartment.
L.A. Tower, this is November
10-11. We just experienced
some kind of interference.
Any damage? It bounced us around
a little bit.
We got a warning light on
the starboard baggage door,
but that's about it.
If it was a b*mb, it was
an awfully small one.
But even if it wasn't,
we have to come in now
or we'll flame out.
Roger. Then proceed
to final approach.
Bill? Come in, Bill.
Uh, um, h-hold on one
sec. He wants to talk to you.
- Yeah, kid. What do you got?
- I found the b*mb.
It's set to go off
at a thousand feet.
Well, you better get it out
of there, because they're
coming down right now.
Just what I was thinking.
Coming up on 2,000 feet.
We're at a thousand
feet and all's clear.
Roger, November 10-11.
You're looking good from here.
Okay, thanks. They're down.
Looks like everybody's safe.
I knew it! I knew it!
Talk to you later.
What did I tell you? F.B.I.
b*mb squad, best in the
world. Let's go find our specialist.
Aaah!
I got to admit, this
is kind of exciting,
being around a rock group.
It makes me feel like
I'm a teenager again.
Good going. That guy
had earrings on!
Where is everybody?
Who the hell is that?
That is Dak Hampton!
Oh, well, he's real pretty,
all right.
I'm starting to
get a headache, Ralph.
Well, look, Dak.
I'll have to tell you
when we get downstairs.
Aw, sh**t. Come on, Christopher.
You tell me I'm gonna
see a big fire in the sky,
and all I see is that
wimp, Hampton.
They must have found
it and taken it apart.
That b*mb was guaranteed
for a thousand feet.
- Yeah, and maybe
you just messed up!
- I promise you, Brick, it was!
Well, promise me this, will you?
Promise me the next
time Mr. Superstar sings,
it's in another life.
You got it.
What's going on
here, Christopher?
Where are my fans?
Dak, we... we had a
real close call here.
This is Bill Maxwell
with the F.B.I.
He's here because about an
hour before your plane landed...
I got a tip that there
was a b*mb on board.
Oh, no. And it went off
and we've all been k*lled
and we're in heaven now.
- Oh my God, Christopher.
- Dak, this is serious.
Stay with me for
a moment, please?
Someone is
threatening your life.
This is Ralph Hinkley.
He's a b*mb specialist.
How are you doing?
I... I can't believe...
that I'm actually standing here
with Dak Hampton.
I mean, if my students knew
I was standing here with you,
they would go bananas.
I mean, it's bad enough,
we can't even buy a ticket
for your concert.
Students? You teach
a course on bombs?
Oh, no, no. I'm a... I'm
a high-school teacher.
Yeah, he just does this stuff
as a sideline.
Uh, Mr. Hinkley, uh,
what does your expertise
tell you on this case?
I mean, what
happened here, Ralph?
Oh. Well, uh, my
best-guess scenario...
is that the... The
b*mb malfunctioned,
and uh, it just, uh,
did a little damage
to the rear cargo door.
If you'll check
it, you'll find that
it's just a little ajar.
Ajar? Is something missing?
What about the tapes?
Settle down,
Christopher. It's right there.
It's just a door.
Well, the point is,
Mr. Hampton's life is clearly
in some kind of danger.
Bummer, man.
You're... You're
the expert here.
Can we put Dak under F.B.I.
protection or something until
after the concert tomorrow?
Uh, maybe secure the hotel?
Well, uh, that's
very, very difficult
with the superstar types.
I mean, it's almost impossible.
Well, uh, what about one
of those safe houses, Bill...
You know, where the agent
stays with the endangered party.
Hey, Bill, he can stay with you.
Thanks, counselor, I
hadn't thought of that.
Okay, you're going to go with
Mr. Maxwell and stay in one
of those safe houses tonight.
And I'll take the
guys back to the hotel.
Look, Christopher. I
really don't have any time
to spend the evening with a fed.
I'm so sorry. No problem.
Lenny and I have to work
out that song tonight, so it'll be
on the Christmas release.
Look, Dak. I'm the manager.
I'll give you the instructions.
And there won't be
a Christmas release
if there ain't no Dak Hampton.
You've got a point.
Hasn't he, Max?
Huh?
I'm too tired to
argue. Let's just go.

Honest, it sounds like
you're chopping up birds.

"Lady of Spain" would have

I'm sure it would.
So, this is what they
call a safe house, huh?
Is it really foolproof?
Yeah, ordinarily, as

inside of it cooperate.

not telling anybody

Hello?
Hi, honey.
Sorry if I woke you up,
but I need to talk to Dak.
Is he awake yet?
Yes, he's awake, but
you'll have to wait for him
to finish his set.
Dak! Dak, it's for
you. Aw, Mrs. H.!
Hello? Dak, this
is Ralph Hinkley.
Listen. I thought
you'd wanna know
we're at the hotel,
and we're getting ready to
take Lenny to the hospital.
He O.D.'d on heroin.
Bill and I found him
in his room unconscious.
Ralph, there's got
to be some mistake.
I mean, uh, Lenny's
completely clean.
I know for sure. Well, uh, Dak,
all I can say is maybe you
didn't know Lenny as well
as you thought you did.
I'm coming down there
right now. I've gotta see him.
No, no. You stay there.
He's on his way
to County General.
Bill and I will pick you up.
All right, but hurry up.
All right, party's over.
One more song, one more song.
Let's go, folks. Come on.
Party's over. Say good night.
Say good night. Good night.
Come on. But it was great.
You were great. Thank you.
Thanks a lot, Dak.
You were great.
Okay.
Was he great?
Yeah.
He was great, wasn't he?
- Christopher.
- Dak, where have you been?
We've been looking for you.
Did everybody get tired?
No, I'm at that b*mb
expert's house... Hinkley.
Listen, Christopher.
Some of those bikers got a
hold of Lenny, shot him full
of smack. He's unconscious.
- Now, just take it easy, Dak.
- I'm sick of this garbage, man.
First it's just a couple
of tattooed slobs
cluttering things up.
Now they're planting bombs
on my plane, they're hitting on
my friends.
Christopher, I want you
to straighten things out
right now. I mean it.
Or find yourself
another gig. Okay, okay.
I'll see what I can do.
You're not gonna "see" anything.
You're gonna take care of
it, or that's a rap for you, man.
Damn! Can't you
guys do anything right?
You almost screw everything
up by trying to blow up a plane
with Dak's master tapes on it.
It's real tough to release
albums with both the star
and his tapes gone, Mr. Brick.
How was we supposed to know
the tapes were on the plane?
What about Lenny, huh?
I tell you to snuff him out
with an overdose.
What happens? You don't give him
enough smack.
You're a bunch of bums.
You watch your mouth,
Bunch, or you'll be...
No, you shut up!
Don't forget I brought
you guys in on this deal!
I run things here!
Okay now. You're gonna
get a second chance.
If you blow it this time,
you might as well turn in
your bikes...
before you run yourselves over.
Uh, there's some more
coffee in the kitchen if you'd
like a cup.
Oh, no, thanks. I
really don't want any.
Listen. You've
been, uh, very nice...
to tolerate all this nonsense.
If anything's
broken or destroyed,
just make a list and
have it all replaced, okay?
Thank you. It was just
a couple of dirty glasses
and cans, that's all.
Actually, considering
what went on here,
they were pretty nice.
Is something the matter?

Hey, I know that song.
The Harmony Brothers.
Yeah. That was our
first hit single. 1965.
Were you one of the
Harmony Brothers?
Oh, my God. I didn't
even make the connection.
- You were known as
Dak Harmony, weren't you?
- Uh-huh.
Oh, my God. I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
You know, I have
one of your albums.
When I was a kid, I use
to be a big fan of yours.
You were one of my favorites.
Here it is, look. Let me see.
The Harmony
Brothers. Oh, my God.
Look at that face.
He was ready to
take on the world,
wasn't he?
Yeah. And he
sure did, didn't he?
Yep. But I think the
world is winning right now.
God. I would give all
my money, everything,
just to be right here on
this album cover again.
Everything was so much simpler.
And music wasn't so mean.
There weren't so many notes.
Hey, this, uh, may
sound a little dumb,
but would you
autograph that for me?
Sure.
Uh, to Pam.
The girls in the sorority
won't believe this.
Uh, good morning.
Uh, did you notice
there was no trash bags
out here this morning?
Ha! Isn't that great? No trash.
Mrs. Hinkley, do you know
why I didn't get any sleep
last night?
No, Mr. Norton,
but if you hum a few
bars, I'll try it for you.
Uh, no, Mr. Norton,
I have no idea how much sleep
you got last night.
- None.
- None?
- Zero.
- Zero.
- Zip.
- Zip.
- Neither did we.
And do you know why none
of us got any sleep last night?
Uh, full moon?
Because you were having
a wild rock-and-roll party...
until 6:00 in the morning!
Well, things did get a
little out of hand here
last night.
A little out of hand?
That music shook my
house until I thought I would
go crazy!
I have never had... All right!
All right! Okay.
Calm down.
I am sorry. I am very sorry
about what happened
here last night.
It just was one of
those freak things that
we had no control over,
but I promise you,
as a new member
of this neighborhood,
nothing like this will
ever happen again.
I promise.
Hey, pretty boy.
We're going for a ride.
Move.
And you ride with
me, pretty lady.
Dak and Pam. Dak? Pam?
I've got 'em here, Bill.
Road Hogs have 'em
up at Delaware Park.
- Yeah. Okay, let's go.
- Chris Bunch is
involved with these guys.
What? You're kidding!
Why that dirty... So he
was the linchpin all along.
Okay, you get dressed.
I'll see you there.
Looks like you've come
to the end of the set,
doesn't it, Dak?
What's the matter with
you, Christopher, huh?
What happened to you?
Nothing. I just don't like
little creeps like you trying to
tell me how to run the show.
What's he talking about,
Dak? Run the show?
Just because I got tired
of these freaks taking
75% of the profits,
you call that me
running the show?
Yeah, I do, because
without these guys,
there wouldn't be any profits,
'cause there would
have never been Elvira.
You were in on it
from the beginning,
weren't you?
Huh? And now
you're gonna k*ll me
and an innocent lady.
Look. If it's just the
money you want,
wait till after the concert
and go out with a big bonus.
One lousy concert
doesn't do anything for me
now that I got the tapes.
I don't like you, Dak,
and I don't need you.
And the world can remember
Dak Hampton's memory...
when I release his new albums...
posthumously.
Okay, just leave Pam alone.
Please. Don't hurt her.
- Aaah!
- Get down!
Aaah!
Aaah!
Drop it!
That was... That was amazing!
Yeah, I think there's a
song in there somewhere.
Afternoon! Ready for inspection!
What do you say there, Captain?
Afternoon, folks.
Pam will be out in a
minute. Well, uh, don't tell her
to hurry.
We don't wanna get
there early, you know,
to a stadium full of a
100,000 uh, screaming,
stomping kids.
Bill, come on.
It's just Dak's way
of saying thank you.
Besides, do you know
how many people...
would give their eyetooth
to sit front row, center
at an Elvira concert?
Do you have any idea
the statistics of kids that
go deaf at these things?
We're all gonna wind
up watching T.V. shows
with closed captions here!
Bill, you're wearing g*ns
to a concert? Come on.
Well, you can't be too careful
in a place like that.
Sorry I kept you
waiting. Hi, there.
Boy, if looks could k*ll...
Well, they should be happy...
that we're not taking the
trash out on a Monday,
but we waited until
today to take out the trash.
