02x18 - A Question of Guilt

[bunniefuu]

[theme music]

- Oh. - Whoo!

- Hey. - 'Spooner.'

Me, lieutenant?

You, get in.

Well, what's the problem?

You don't got any reason to bust me.

[coughs]

[Frank] 'Get in.'

Why? I'm clean.

Sure you are.

That's why you're wearing long sleeves

when it's a 100 degrees in the shade.

Look, lieutenant, uh..

Here.

[coughs]

Thanks.

Now, who's feeding you the stuff?

- Where is it coming from? - What stuff?

I'm off it. I kicked it.

- You kicked it? - Absolutely.

I'm telling you the truth.

I learned my lesson.

Alright, show me your arm.

Lieutenant..

I don't know where it's comin' from.

I supposed to meet a couple of guys tonight.

- What guys? Who? - I don't know.

They're gonna phone.

Now, look at me.

As soon as they contact you

you call me, understand?

I don't wanna have to go looking for you, Joe.

McKinney.

Spooner.

Well..

[coughs]

I'll call. I'll call.

Get out.

[McKinney] 'Hey, Joey.'

How you, man?

What's the matter? Your feet hurt?

Taxi's too expensive?

You gotta ride with the fuzz now?

Hey. Hey, hey.

Didn't your mother ever tell you to cover your mouth

when you cough, junkie?

Eh?

What'd you tell Harris?

Did you tell him about us?

Is that why he gave you a pass?

- You make a deal? - I didn't tell him nothin'.

Nothin'.

Hey, Vicky boy, you hear that? He-he-he.

Lieutenant Harris gives this junkie a pass for nothin'.

Must be Christmas.

No, McKinney, it's too hot for Christmas.

Maybe, it's be-kind-to-a-junkie week.

Please.

I told him I was sick.

[dramatic music]

Okay.

Hey, there's blood on my tie.

Ten bucks for a good tie.

Look at this mess.

He's dead.

You're kidding.

What do you want, a coroner's report?

Now what?

He..

He was with Harris.

It's, uh, too bad Harris k*lled him.

Tonight's episode, A Question Of Guilt.

[instrumental music]

[male narrator] Within 24 hours after the body of narcotic addict

Joseph Spooner was found

Detective Lieutenant Frank Harris

had been positively identified by eye witnesses

as the last person to see Spooner alive.

A charge of police brutality was immediately

brought against Harris by the dead man's mother.

Harris was summoned before the Bureau of Personnel.

If proven, the charge would be changed to m*rder.

The department record will show

that Detective Lieutenant Harris

assigned to the narcotics detail

appeared at Central Headquarters

'Bureau of Personnel on 13th July.'

'And was apprised of an allegation filed against him'

'and of his rights as an officer'

'and a citizen.'

Lieutenant Harris.

'It has been alleged that on 12 July'

'you inflicted severe physical injuries'

'on the person of Joseph Spooner.'

Injuries which subsequently lead to his death.

Certificate of examining physician

at county morgue is attached.

Departmental OA report is attached.

A departmental board of enquiry

will be convened at 1 p.m. on 16th July

to determine the validity of that allegation.

You have the right to be represented by council

to subpoena witnesses in your defense

and to question witnesses who appear against you.

'As of this date you are suspended from duty'

'pending the verdict of the trial board.'

- 'Do you have any questions?' - No, sir.

You have departmental identification

and badge number 1321?

Yes, sir.

Will you surrender them to me?

[dramatic music]

Oh, Art, come in.

- You've seen this? - Yeah.

What do you suppose that Barrett is after?

Now, why don't you ask him.

He's right outside with Spooner's mother.

He just flew in.

She filed a compliant with the local SAC

and then they headed for my office

to find out what Washington

was gonna do about it.

Well, I told them, I wanted them to meet the man

who'd be in charge of the investigation.

Come in, Mrs. Spooner.

I'd like you to meet, uh, Inspector Lewis Erskine.

This is Mrs. Olive Spooner.

How do you do?

And Mr. Barrett.

Mr. Barrett. Won't you sit down?

Go ahead. It's alright.

She's never been this far away from home before.

She's a little leery of strangers.

Especially when they carry a badge, you know.

Mrs. Spooner, I understand it was you who..

...wrote a complaint against Lieutenant Harris.

Yes.

Can you tell us why you think, uh, he beat your son?

I mean, uh, did anyone see it?

He, he picked him up

and-and took him to this alley..

...and hit him.

Yes, but did anyone see it?

He was, he was a bad boy.

But why would they have to hurt him?

[sobbing] I don't see why they had to hurt him.

'I don't see why they..'

[Mrs. Spooner crying]

Look, uh, could the secretary

find some place for her to lie down?

Yes.

We'll get you a glass of water.

Come on this way, please.

Uh, would you find a place

for Mrs. Spooner to lie down, please?

Thank you.

An amazing thing, love, isn't it?

Jo Spooner was an addict.

A thief, a cheat, a liar.

And she loved him.

He was alive

and now he's dead.

And that's all that matters to her.

And I hope, Mr. Erskine, that's all

that matters to this Bureau too.

What else could matter to it, Mr. Barrett?

Well, now I'm not sure.

The status quo.

Were you a friend of his?

He didn't have any friends.

I went to Mrs. Spooner with my sympathies.

She wanted to know how Harris could be stopped

from k*lling somebody else's boy.

I told her to file civil rights violation charges

with the FBI, I said the FBI would see to it

that Harris was punished.

- What if he's innocent? - He isn't.

Mr. Barrett, exactly what power of insight qualifies you

to act as judge, jury, prosecutor

and all the witnesses in this particular case?

I've studied Harris, Mr. Erskine

and I think he's sick.

I haven't found out what turned him into a psychotic yet

but I will.

Now if you've seen Harris' record, you know that he's had

four complaints of brutality lodged against him.

All of them were investigated

and all of them were dismissed by the department.

No foundation whatsoever.

Alright, those were minor.

But this time, a man has been m*rder*d.

And Lieutenant Harris with affair to poor record

was the last person to have been seen with Spooner

before Spooner was found dead.

Now, if the law is gonna turn its back

on that neighborhood again, then those people will give up hope.

It's happening all over the country, inspector

there's no reason it can't happen there.

Now, is one sick sadist worth all that trouble?

I think that has to be the question, don't you?

No, I don't.

We're charged with determining whether or not

a federal law has been violated.

The question is, "Did Lieutenant Harris

beat Spooner to death?"

And that is the only question.

[man on radio] 'You all knew Joey Spooner.'

'Well, Joey is dead now.'

'But let's give our friend a funeral'

'this town will never forget.'

Wild, huh?

[man on radio] 'Open your wallets for Joey.'

'You all loved Joey.'

Saint Joey, the schnook.

How'd this benefic get started anyway?

Hate.

Ey, Shaw, haven't you got ears?

That's love they are talking about.

It's hate for the lieutenant.

They're out to build a martyr.

They want to bury Harris.

Not Spooner.

He got to be buried.

Next time, the law will be so hard on a poor citizen.

Right?

Who says the law leaned this time?

Eye-witnesses.

They didn't say it.

They seen Spooner get in a car with Harris

that's all.

You're a hard man to convince.

Well, think about it.

Let's say you're Harris

are you gonna pick up a junkie

where a hundred people can see ya?

Take him to a public alley in broad daylight and k*ll him?

- I might. - Yeah, you might. Not Harris.

And when some of these people calm down

they're gonna realize it.

[dramatic music]

I wonder if the old guy could have a point.

I wonder if we gotta go some place warm like Mexico.

No, you move too fast, people notice.

People are going to start saying why did he do it?

You know why he did it?

Because he found out that Joey Spooner started

his sister on her first stick of pot.

[chuckles]

You didn't know that, huh?

Harris don't have a sister.

Yeah, he has. He did.

She was a junkie?

Yeah.

I heard she died in New York, 1945.

Forty five..

Spooner couldn't been more than ten or eleven-years-old.

I mean, he couldn't have, uh..

Genius, would you quit it?

Who knows who started her.

Baby Joey, huh?

Yeah.

[chuckles]

Yeah.

[chuckles]

Come on.

First we make a couple of calls.

Then we take a vacation.

Slow and easy.

I don't know.

This don't feel good.

[dramatic music]

[instrumental music]

[airplane droning]

- Page, good to see you. - Inspector.

- SAC Blanchard, Jim Rhodes. - How do you do?

Been able to reach Harris?

Yes, and he's agreed to an interview.

I told him you'd be at his house within the hour.

Good. I'd like to see pictures of the body.

[Blanchard] 'They're at the office.'

[Erskine] 'What was the medical report?'

[Blanchard] 'He was high.'

How much money was he carrying?

Not a penny. No wallet, rings, watch, nothing.

That wouldn't be unusual for an addict.

No, he'd sell everything for a fix.

Did he own a watch?

Yes, he did, and apparently he was wearing it

the day he was k*lled.

The colonel reported a mark of an expansion band

on his left wrist.

We checked the pawn shops he usually dealt with

but no watch of any kind showed up that day.

You know, we may have a simple case of robbery on our hands?

Or we may have a detective lieutenant

smart enough to make it look like a simple case of robbery.

No corroborating witness yet for Harris' story, huh?

Several people saw Spooner get into the car with Harris

but no one saw him get out.

Or if they did, they're not gonna help Harris by saying so.

He's not exactly the most popular man in the world, is he?

Hm. That's part of the problem, Harris himself.

He's not gonna win any prizes for attack

but he's not down there to make people love him

he's down there to get the pushers.

What's his record?

Eighty percent conviction on his arrests.

The syndicate moved out of the neighborhood

because Harris is more trouble to them

than the area is worth.

A small flight still drift in, but Harris cuts them down

as soon as he finds them.

He's filled up a lot of cells.

Heaven help him if he's ever sent up himself.

A lot of boys up there waiting to say hello.

[dramatic music]

Well, what's the problem?

You tell me, I think I already know.

We checked it out and..

...Harris never had a sister, right?

Huh? No, he had a sister.

Has a sister.

You told me she was dead.

She had a 50 buck a day habit.

Kicked it in 45, private sanitarium.

Harris said that it k*lled her.

But Bon talked to a guy who was up there.

He said the girl was released.

She changed her name, got married.

She lives in Buffalo.

Well, well, well.

Our lieutenant lied.

But why?

It doesn't matter why.

What matters is he did it.

I think we better do somethin' about it, don't you?

[music continues]

Barrett, huh, yes, Barrett.

I figured he'd be involved in this business up to his neck.

So he flew all the way to Washington to talk to you, huh?

Why is he so interested in this case, lieutenant?

- Do you have any idea? - He's a crusader.

I'm his crusade.

Alright, let's get back to the beginning.

What did you question Jo Spooner about?

We've been running into some high grade pot lately

new stuff, that means heroin's here

or on its way.

I wanted to find out who the distributors were

and I figured Spooner could help.

He said a couple of the boys were going to contact him

later that evening.

Promised to phone me.

And you let him out on Castello Avenue near Taft?

'That's right.'

What do you think happened to him, lieutenant?

I think somebody saw him with me.

I think he was k*lled to keep him quiet.

Hm.

I notice you transferred to the narcotics details

as soon as you were able to

and that you've been there ever since.

So, why are you so interested in this particular division?

My sister was an addict.

It's my sister Bea, Beatrice.

It's in the record if you want.

Spellings, dates.

I don't talk about it, but the department knows.

Where is she now?

She's dead.

I'm sorry.

It's 20 years ago, it's all over with.

And there's no connection between Spooner and her?

No connection.

Was, um, was he wearing a watch

the last time you saw him?

Yes, gold expansion band calendar watch.

I was hoping you would've found that by now.

Not yet.

You find the watch, you might find the m*rder*r.

Take a giddy look, please.

Come on, I bought it for you.

Look, chula, what's the matter with you?

Crazy or something?

I told you a thousand times I don't want it.

Hey..

This is an engagement present.

There's no engagement.

I don't like this place.

I'm going home.

No.

I'm going home.

I leave tomorrow.

There's nothing in San Juan.

Quit clinging on to me like some

dumb piece of fly paper, huh.

- No. - Okay.

Okay, I'll think of you in Puerto Rico

when I look at the watch.

Hey, Danny.

Danny!

[engine rumbling]

[instrumental music]

Now, wait a minute, wait a minute.

You're saying Spooner was trying to blackmail Harris?

I'm telling you, that Joey found out

that Harris' sister lived in Buffalo.

He warned Harris to quit leanin' on him

or he'd tell her husband that she was a junkie.

Harris went crazy and k*lled him.

Who is this?

Check it out yourself. Mrs. Beatrice Jenson.



[dramatic music]

[woman on phone] 'Long distance.'

Yes, I'd like the number

of a family named Jenson.



Buffalo, New York.

[instrumental music]

[Tom] 'Of course I tried to contact Harris'

'before we printed this story.'

He hung up on me when I told him who I was.

- So you printed it? - Inspector.

We're not dealing with a baker or a priest

or a shoe salesman here, we're dealing with a policeman.

And I happen to believe that any man

who has the legal right to carry a g*n

the legal right to stop a citizen and question him

they'd better be above suspicion.

Harris never denied his sister was an addict.

It's a matter of public record

who was taken into account by his superiors

when he was assigned to this detail.

He lied, inspector, that is a fact.

His sister's not dead, she's living.

He lied.

And his lie laid him open to blackmail.

Now, do you think that's an act of a responsible policeman?

The way to measure responsibility, Mr. Harris

is to measure the way a man reacts to a crisis

and you don't know how Harris reacted

you don't even know if that was a crisis.

That's what we're trying to find out.

Inspector, responsibility--

Responsibility means a great deal to you, doesn't it?

You bet your life, it does.

And you call this responsible?

You're that newspaper man in this town is doing his best

to be fair to keep everyone calm.

'A policeman has no--'

A policeman's job is to keep the peace, Mr. Barrett.

And he risks his neck doing it.

'And if he oversteps his bounds, he's punished for it.'

Far more severely than you'd ever be under the circumstances.

Can you imagine what would happen to a policemen

who publicly sanctioned a riot?

Now, that's what you're doing.

Have you any idea what's going on in Spooner's neighborhood?

We get the police calls.

You got a press card.

How would you like to see it for yourself?

[dramatic music]

[music continues]

[glass shatters]

[music continues]

And remember, Barrett, this isn't a riot yet.

Anymore than a flame is a forest fire.

It's still controllable.

It'll simmer like this all night.

[dramatic music]

[sirens blaring]

- Any sign of Harris? - Nope.

His car is gone and they've burned a swastika in his lawn.

It'll feel a lot easier to find where he was.

[knock on door]

- Frank? - Hello, sweetheart.

Oh, Frank.

I saw the light in the kitchen so I, uh..

Well, come in. Oh..

- I didn't scare you, did I? - Oh, no.

Well, yes. As a matter of fact you..

I didn't know who it was at first.

Twenty one years is, is that right?

Look, look, come. Come and ha-ha-have some dinner.

- No, I had-- - Lemme get you some coffee

- Hey, that would be great. - Good.

How have you been, Bea?

Oh, wonderful. Uh, married, two kids.

Yeah.

Well, he just took them to the movies.

Yeah, I saw them go. I, um, I've been sitting in the car.

Oh. Uh, cream or sugar or..

No, no, just black.

Frank, how'd you ever find me?

Oh, oh, I..

It isn't that I didn't want you to.

Oh, you just don't know how often I've thought of

of looking you up, calling you and..

Well, I've always known where you were.

You weren't so hard to trace.

But I, uh, I figured if you wanted to start over..

Well, you know, new name, new everything.

You had a right to.

Frankie, it wasn't you I wanted to get away from.

It was...everything else.

Oh, Frank, it's so good to see you.

'And, listen, how long can you stay?'

I-I mean, we've got all the room in the world here.

Bea, you got a phone call

from a man by the name of Tom Barrett, a newspaper man?

Well, there was a call, yeah.

But I wasn't home. My little girl took it.

She thought it was about a newspaper subscription.

She said he asked her a lot of questions

but she couldn't remember what they were.

Well, this man, Barrett is a columnist.

And he's printed a story saying that..

...that you are alive, that your name is Jensen.

That you were an addict.

[dramatic music]

He's after me.

He thinks this story will help prove that I k*lled a man..

'...to protect my sister's right of privacy.'

- Frankie.. - Oh, no, no, he's wrong.

I didn't do it.

[music continues]

Bea, what will Paul say?

Well, he'll say..

"Honey, I wish you had told me, but it's alright.

Don't worry about it, I understand."

I-I'm glad you're, you're finally

gonna have a chance to meet him.

He's a nice guy. I...I love him.

I trust him.

What about the kids?

Well...well, it might be a little more trouble there.

We'll just...tippy-toe up to it.

Try not to shock 'em.

- Boy, you really k*ll me. - Why?

Oh, I thought by now you'd be yelling and screaming.

You're a big girl now, aren't you?

About time.

- I better be getting back. - But you just got here?

It's a long drive.

Listen, everything's gonna be alright, Frank.

And look at the good part of it.

We got back together.

Now, don't you worry.

Don't worry.

You remember that slogan

they had you embroidered at the sanitarium

"God helps him who helps themself?"

'Cause it's a pure enough fact.

Nobody else is going to do it for you.

Goodnight, sweetheart.

Frankie, come back.

[door closes]

Hey, I gotta watch to sell.

- I'm closed. - Come on!

Gimme a break. Look.

[door closes]

It's a beaut. You know what a thing like this is worth?

Let me see.

[instrumental music]

It's solid gold.

Look at the band. I-it's almost new.

What, what do you give me?

What do you want?

Fifty.

It's worth five.

Gold plated.

Listen, the KBL clerk says

I'm short ten dollars of an aeroplane ticket.

Gimme ten dollars.

I gotta get outta here.

- Where are you goin'? - Home.

Ten dollars.

[dramatic music]

I'll need your name, address.

[dramatic music]

Page, can you lemme have a magnifying glass

and an envelope?

Yeah.

I tried to stall him

but he was gone before I could turn around.

And you've never seen this boy before, Mr. Shaw?

Uh, no, no.

Oh, he had an accent.

Uh, uh, Mexican, Puerto Rican.

- Black hair? - Yeah.

- What color was Spooner's hair? - Brown.

Okay, thank you very much.

The only KBL flight this evening

was an all coached jet to Puerto Rico.

It took off ten minutes ago.

I'll let the SAC send one.

Give them the description of the boy

and tell them we'll try to have a name for him

by the time the plane lands.

- Yes, sir. - This is a special courier.

Take this to the lab as soon as possible.

Thanks for your cooperation, Mr. Shaw.

Uh, who needs thanks?

It's a matter of common sense.

If Harris is being railroaded I wanna help him.

Is he a friend of yours?

Personal friend? No.

But how long do you think a man of my business would last

without officers like Harris around?

No, I don't believe he laid a hand on Spooner.

Oh, he's tough.

Yeah, but, he's fair.

If he's innocent, I hope you can prove it.

And I hope he gets back on the street soon.

I got a long way to walk home tonight.

[dramatic music]

[music continues]

[music continues]

[music continues]

[instrumental music]

[instrumental music]

- Quieter. - What are they waiting for?

- 'The funeral?' - 'Funeral?'

[Blanchard] 'Emotion, speeches.'

'And newspaper articles.'

We're cooling it, Blanchard.

Until the board of enquiry meets.

Good.

I still think they'll find him guilty.

Recommend prosecution.

But we'll play this story down as long as we can.

Unless he kills somebody else in the meantime.

[Tom] 'Well, he hasn't called in yet.'

'I don't whether he'll be down this morning or not.'

Alright, if I wait?

- Well, uh.. - I'll wait, if you don't mind.

Suit yourself, buddy.

[instrumental music]

Alright, keep on it.

I don't know how much time we've got left.

That's N1 field office.

All that old boy will admit

is that his name is Daniel Garza.

He never owned a watch, he never pawned a watch

he wouldn't know what to do with a watch if he had one.

Oh, he's, he's in a panic.

Probably won't say anything now until we confirm him for sure.

What do you hear from downtown?

No, so far it's quiet.

The police don't expect anything until after dark

then it could go either way.

Well, I'd talk to, uh, Garza's landlady.

She said he hasn't worked in about six months.

A girl named Estella Lopez paid his rent.

Apparently she was the only friend he had.

He spent most of his time

brooding about how he could get back to San Juan.

[phone ringing]

SAC's Office, Erskine.

Lewis, this is Arthur.

The, uh, the lab has the reports for you.

Yes, Arth?

The hair was from a brunette Caucasian.

- Is that any help? - Hold on a minute.

Uh, do you have any, do you have a description on the Lopez girl?

Uh, Caucasian, 19, brunette.

Well, thank you very much. It could help.

I'll get back to you.

What's her address?

Uh, it's a hamburger joint on fourth, Joe's Cafe.

- Daniel who? - Graza.

Graza. Graza. Oh, I-I don't know him.

His landlady knows you, Miss Lopez.

She told us you paid his rent regularly

while he was in this country.

- No. - 'He's in serious trouble.'

He pawned a stolen watch.

He didn't happen to tell you where he got it, did he?

I don't know any Danny Garza.

Miss Lopez, did you ever see the watch?

- Did you ever wear it? - No.

- You never wore it? - No.

He pawned it?

Where were you at 11 o'clock Tuesday morning?

Right here.

- Right here? - Yes.

- Was the cook here? - Yes.

- Ask him to verify. - Yeah.

'No, wait a minute.'

Uh, oh-oh, I remember. Tuesday?

It was my day off.

And where were you at 11:00 in the morning?

Well, I'm afraid you'll have to come down

to the office with us, Miss Lopez.

You can phone a lawyer, and ask him to meet you there.

Look, I didn't k*ll him.

I took the watch but he was already dead.

They, they beat him.

'I was hidin', I was afraid that they'd k*ll me too.'

Who beat him?

Well, these two, they come in here sometimes.

What are their names?

Vic, Vic and McKinney.

Well, they live up on Davis Street.

Uh..

Oh, this girl I know she said they left this morning.

Well, well, she'd know where they are.

[instrumental music]

Hey, slow down, will you?

I don't wanna get picked up

with all that dream stuff in the back.

We're clear now. Let's keep it that way, huh?

[instrumental music]

[tires screeching]

A report just came in, Mr. Barrett

that might interest you.

Yeah?

We've got an eye witness to the Spooner k*lling.

She's named two narcotics pushers.

The suspects are being sought in Pennsylvania now

under the Fleeing Felon Act.

- Which way are you headed? - 'Back to the office.'

- Can you drop me by the paper? - Yeah, hop in.

[instrumental music]

[man on radio] 'Foreign passengers answering suspect's description.'

'reported on Pennsylvania 103.'

'Six miles south-west of Lanham'

Unit A to chase Central.

Establish road blocks on 103, two miles north of Torrance.

Also on side roads 7 and 40, north and east of Coburn.

[instrumental music]

[sirens wailing]

Well...Lieutenant Harris.

I've been wondering if anything happened to you, Barrett.

I've been waiting quite a while to see you.

I've been out covering a story.

The riots?

The potential riots. Yeah.

What do you want?

Why did you print that story about my sister?

I've printed the fact that your sister is living.

I thought the further fact that you lied.

And that may have lead you open to blackmail.

It's impossible to me that you could've k*lled Spooner

in a fit of rage.

Do you have any idea what this is going to do

to my sister, her family?

- Her husband, her kids? - I don't know.

Do you care?

I cared more about Joseph Spooner's civil right..

[instrumental music]

I cared about his civil rights too

that's why I never would have touched him.

No matter what the provocation?

No matter what.

Then yet here you are..

...threatening me.

[instrumental music]

Barrett..

...I'll tell you the truth.

It's been in the back of my mind.

I've often wondered what would happen

if I got mad enough at

Jo Spooner or Tom Barrett.

Well, it doesn't matter much

one way or the other what you think about me.

I know myself now.

That's all that's really important.

[instrumental music]

McKinney?

What do we do? Stop?

There's no reason they should be looking for us.

I suppose somebody tipped them off

about the heroin.

[instrumental music]

Go.

[tires screeching]

Crowd them off.

[tires screeching]

Throw out your g*ns and come out with your hands up.

Hello?

- Barrett, Inspector Erskine. - Oh, yes, inspector.

Did Blanchard get in touch with you?

Yes, he said, you'd found some new suspects.

We've captured them. I thought you'd like to know.

That's good news. Thank you.

Lieutenant Harris will be notified as soon as possible.

[Barrett] 'Oh, he's right here.'

Where, in your office?

Yes, uh, we've been having quite a talk about, uh..

Well, responsibility in crisis.

Oh, in that case maybe you'd like to tell him yourself.

Yes, sir, I's be glad to.

I'd be very glad to.

'Thank you again.'

[male narrator] With the apprehension of the K*llers of Joseph Spooner

the charges against Lieutenant Harris

were dismissed. And the rioting in his precinct stopped.

Victor Hild and Gloyd McKinney were tried and found guilty

and were sentenced to life imprisonment.
