04x14 - The Evil Men Do

[bunniefuu]

Gerard!
Get down! Gerard, get down!

Gerard, come on.

Kimble.

There's a k*ller out there.
He's trying to k*ll you.

Starring David Janssen
as Dr. Richard Kimble.

An innocent victim of blind justice,

falsely convicted
for the m*rder of his wife,

reprieved by fate
when a train wreck freed him

en route to the death house.

Freed him to hide
in lonely desperation,

to change his identity,
to toil at man y jobs.

Freed him to search
for a one-armed man

he saw leave
the scene of the crime.

Freed him to run
before the relentless pursuit

of the police lieutenant
obsessed with his capture.

James Daly,

Elizabeth Allen,

David Sheinen

Also starring Barry Morse
as Lieutenant Philip Gerard.

Well, now, lieutenant,

I'm percent certain it was Kimble,
or else I wouldn't have called you.

You saw him in a station wagon
but you didn't get the license number?

Well, you see, it happened too fast.

I was off duty,
having lunch at a lunch counter,

when I saw this station wagon
pull up to a stop sign.

The driver's face rang a bell,

but before I had time to connect him
to your make sheet, he'd pulled away.

He could've gone in any direction.

Sure the wagon had local plates,
not out-of-state?

Positive.
You see, that's what threw me off.

You know, it just didn't fit,
Kimble and a local vehicle.

One thing I'm certain about,
that station wagon had truck plates.

All right.

I want a list of every vehicle reported
stolen in this state in the last month.

Well, we’ve gone through
the local reports.

That's not enough.

If it were stolen, Kimble's smart
enough not to stay in this area.

Okay, lieutenant, I'll get you the list.

A temporary job
in the peaceful meadows

of the Pocono Mountains
in Pennsylvania.

Calling himself Russell Jordan,

At least for a few days.

Hey, what's going on there?

That horse okay?

All right, you wanna keep your job?
Take it easy with that animal.

Let's snap it up, you guys.
Here comes Mr. Brame.

You, Jordan.

Don't take all day loading that wagon,
move.

Good morning, Mr. Brame.

- Everything okay?
- Sure, Mr. Brame, except, uh...

Except what?

Well, that new stallion’s
a little bit spooked.

- Go on up the house.
- You going to belong?

As long as it takes me.

Everything's fine down here.

Don't have to worry about a thing.
Just look around.

I intend to.

Oh, excuse me.

He's new. Gets the sack tomorrow.

All right, Clark, don't hang on me.
I want you, I'll call you.

Hah, hah! Go on, get back! Hah!

Now, don't try to move.
I'll get a doctor.

No, no doctor.

You're...

You're one up on me.

- Well, anyone would’ve-Maybe.

But you're the one who did it.

So now I've gotta square things
with you.

There's nothing even close, lieutenant.

Then we'll have to get a list
from Motor Vehicles.

All the registered station wagons
in this area.

Well, the truck plates make it easier.

It's probably connected
to some company.

That's where we'll start.

Every station wagon owned
by a company concern or operation

within a radius of miles.
We'll hit them one by one.

Well, that could take some time,
lieutenant.

I've got some time.

Well, let’s get on it.

Jordan.

- You wanted to see me?
- Mr. Brame does.

You can guess about what, huh?

Hey, you did yourself good, friend.
Real good.

Wait in the study.

Come on in. Drink?

No, thank you.

Go on, sit down.

I'm supposed to entertain you
until he gets down here.

I'm not very good at it.

Well, I’m Sharon.

Hi, Sharon.

I'll tell you something.

You can work Arthur over real good
and he'll stand still for it, believe me.

Good, I'll remember.

No, I'm not putting you on.

Look around. He's got plenty.

There's no reason why you shouldn't
get some of it after what you did.

I just happened to get there first.

Well, that’s the point! .You were the one.

So take what you can get.
Anybody else would.

Why should you be different?

- I'm not.
- You are though, from what I can see.

- I am?
- You're quieter.

And you're more educated too.
I can tell from the way you talk.

Oh, there's nothing wrong with it.
I like it.

But that's what makes you different.

And what else?

Hmm. You seem to keep things inside
like maybe you got something to hide.

Do you?

Okay, leave us alone.

No, thank you.

Sharon's a good girl.
Knows to keep out of the way.

A lot of them don't.

You like this?
I had it decorated myself.

It's very nice.

These are not bought, you know.

I made every k*ll myself.
Not an easy one in the bunch.

An easy k*ll, I give away.

No reason to keep them unless you
have to work for them, right?

I'm not much of a hunter.

No? What about g*ns?

See these? Only modern.

No antiques.

I like something
that gets the job done.

The best.

I'm afraid I don't know much
about g*ns either.

You don't, huh?

Just a traveling man?

- Sort of.
- That's your business.

Me, no matter what kind of work I do,
there's only one thing I really enjoy.

This. Hunting.

Too bad you never took it up.
I'd take you out. You'd enjoy it.

Possibly.

You would. I guarantee it.

But that's for another time.

Here. Ahem.

My tailor. You take the afternoon off.

Go into town, get yourself outfitted,
anything you want.

That's not necessary.

I think it is.

It took guts
to go into that stall after me.

I just thought I could make it.

That's not a good reason to risk your
life for someone you don't even know.

But one thing's sure,

whatever problems you had when you
came here, you don't have any more.

That's a promise, and I'm a man
who never breaks his word.

Well, I appreciate all this--

What's the matter?
You don't need anything?

Well, yeah, sure. It’s just that...

Well, the job is almost finished here
and I like to travel light.

Finished?
Look, Jordan, maybe you don't get it.

You have a job with me
as long as you want it.

Here, California, Vegas,
in any of my operations.

- Legit jobs too. Nothing illegal.
- I appreciate it, but--

You saved my life.
I don't forget something like that.

Maybe it's honor,
or whatever you wanna call it,

but I owe you,
and one way or another I'll pay you.

All right,
I just wanted you to know how I feel.

Well, maybe its only money
that turns you on.

Okay, name a figure.

If you're not too greedy, you got it.

Well, why don't you just keep me
on the payroll for the rest of the week,

then give me a month's pay? That
should square it. Call it severance pay.

Okay.

A week, if that's what you want.

But severance pay
is not gonna square it by me.

I don't like to owe anybody anything.

You're no different
from any other man.

There's bound to be
something special you need,

something only I can do for you.

And I won't be satisfied till I do it.

Well, they got half-tons,I semis, pickup trucks. I

Everything except station wagons.

You know,
I thought sure we'd find it before this.

You having doubts?

Well, we’ve been at this for over two days now.

It can be in the last place we check
just as easily as the first.

Well, you have a lot more patience
than I do.

I've been at it longer.

- Well, where now?
- Way out in the country.

Arthur Brame.
He has a farm raising thoroughbreds.

Brame? Sounds familiar.

It should be.
He used to be in the rackets.

Arthur-- Oh, of course.
He was more than in the rackets.

- Yeah, so I heard.
- Yeah.

Started out as a small-time torpedo.
Bodyguard to atop mobster.

Worked his way up fast.
Got to be a big sh*t on his own.

Well, around here now
he’s the regular country gentleman.

All his other enterprises
are syndicate-financed, but legitimate.

Lieutenant, you sound as if you
don't believe he's been rehabilitated.

k*lling was his business
and he excelled at it.

Men like that don't change.

Not many of them anyway.

What about Kimble?

You think he'd tie himself up
with a man like Brame?

Not likely.

Anyway, all we have right now
is a station wagon to check out.

Well, look who’s here.

Would you like a drink?

- All right.
- Help yourself.

Thank you.

Oh. All dressed up and no place to go.

No, not yet.

You don't have much time, Mr. Jordan.
Not much at all.

Arthur's going to take off
on a business trip to London.

When?

Sometime next week.

So you better
make up your mind fast.

About what?

Your reward.

Or whatever you've got in your mind.

Now is the time to make the push.

And what do you think I have
in my mind?

I don't know.

You've played it too cool for me
so far.

Well, maybe I don’t want
anything from him.

Maybe. Maybe.

I think he knows how I feel.

Not one bit more than I do.

Well, why can’t you take me
at face value?

Oh, Honest Sam, the good guy.

That's the smartest con of all.

Because everything has to be a con?

Isn't everything?

Not necessarily.

I gave you one bit of good advice,
and now I’m going to give you another.

Don't get in over your head
with Arthur.

Right now he trusts you,
but don't cross him.

If he thought
you were pulling a fast one,

all he'd have to do
is pick up that phone and out.

Well, I've given him no reason
to think I'm pulling a fast one.

Just don't underestimate him,
that's all I'm saying.

There are things about this setup
that you don't know anything about.

You sound like you're talking
more for yourself than for him.

And what if I am?

I've got a lot of things around here
of my own to protect.

Arthur is good to me,
and we have a lot of plans together.

Look, I wanna believe you,

but too many things don't add up.

Nothing about you fits,
and that scares me.

Unless I am Honest Sam
with no con.

Well, you’d be the first one I’ve met since I turned off on Santa Claus. i

Excuse me a minute,

I left the keys in the car.

The oar is registered to Arthur Brame,
lieutenant.

I suggest we go in and see him.

Sharon.

Those are oops.
I saw them from upstairs. Stall them.

m*rder*d his wife.
How do you like that?

- You've never seen him?
- No.

- Positive?
- I couldn't be more positive.

I mean, he looks...

Well, I don’t know.
How do you ever tell about people?

Lieutenant,
I didn't get the license plate number,

but I'm almost positive that
that's the station wagon out there.

We'll have to see Brame
and check whoever else is around.

What's the matter,
isn't my word good enough?

It is for me.

What's happening?

- You're Arthur Brame?
- Yes.

I'm Lieutenant Gerard.

You new around here?

I thought I knew all the local cops.

I'm an Indiana cop, Mr. Brame.

I'd like to know
if you've ever seen this man before.

"Kimble."

- m*rder?
- k*lled his wife. Isn't that something?

Indiana's quite a ways.

He must be somebody special.

You know the man or not?

Important, huh?

Yes, it's important.

Have you ever seen him?

Matter of fact, I have.

He worked for me a couple of weeks.
Right here.

Is he still here?

No, I didn't wanna waste him
around here.

Too much class for cleaning stables.

This young lady claims
she's never seen him.

I don't pay much attention
to the hired help.

This guy stood out.

Not the type you'd pick up
for part-time work.

Is there someone else
who'd know about him?

Sure. I wanted him to stick with us,
so I sent him over to see Jim Delaney.

-Who’s he?
- My number one man.

Among other things,
he hires and fires for all my operations.

I sent this man to him
to see if he could find a place for him.

And did he?

Well, he should have. Coming on a
recommendation from me personally.

Where can I see Delaney?

I have a processing plant
in Pittsburgh.

Headquarters for Arthur Brame
Industries. Delaney's there.

Is that where Kimble is working?

Well, I doubt it. He’s not the type you’d put on an assembly line. I

But you talk to Delaney,
he'll have the facts.

You may have to get him on the run.
I mean, he's in and out.

But you'll find him.

How far is the plant?

Oh, a couple of hours from here,
lieutenant.

- Thank you.
- Good luck, lieutenant.

After he saved your life,
you admit he was here.

Why?

That Indiana cop wasn't gonna give up
until he questioned everybody.

You saw the kind he was.

Why'd you tell him anything?

What I did was smart.

You told the cop a lie that would
have made him stick around.

I fed him a lie
that made him take off.

Ah. And he'll be back just as fast

once he finds out
you sent him on a phony chase.

He's not going to find out.

Hmm?

What'll you do?

By the time Gerard gets to Delaney,
Kimble will have his chance to get lost.

I should have known
you wouldn't turn him in.

Not with what I owe him.

And this should square it.

Yeah.

I suppose.

Hey, I've got things to do.
I'm leaving for London tonight.

Tonight? When did this happen?

Oh, it came up this morning.
The meeting's been pushed up.

Oh.

- Will I go?
- It'll only be two days.

I'll pick you up something
in Carnaby Street.

Hey.

Okay, okay.
Now get Clark up here for me.

There are things I wanna get settled
before I take off.

Okay.

May I help you?

Yeah, give me a hamburger
and a cup of coffee, I guess.

Roast beef's better.

Hmm? Uh-- Hamburger's fine.

It's been sitting around
four days already.

Oh.

How about the roast beef?

- Good idea.
- Good idea.

Relax, friend, I was tailing the van.

I'm supposed to buy you dinner,
among other things.

What other things?

Take it easy.

Mr. Brame was the only one
saw you get in the van.

That cop took off
in a different direction.

You tell Mr. Brame I'm very grateful,

but I'm not hungry right now.

Don't rush, Dr. Kimble.

See? Mr. Brame trusts me.

He told me all about you.

Well, then you know I can't afford
to stick around here.

Maybe you can.

Here.

From Mr. Brame.

Said it's severance pay.

Well.

A grand. Not bad.
See what you almost missed?

Yeah, you tell Mr. Brame
I'm very grateful.

Yeah, I guess.

And there's still something else.

He wanted me to tell you
to slow down.

The cop that's after you,

you don't have to worry about him
any more.

What does that mean?

Well, he’s being taken care of.

H ow?

What difference does that make?

Well, it makes a lot of difference.
I want to know.

Unless, of course, he doesn't trust you
with that information.

Sure, I know.

All right,
I'll lay it out for you nice and clean.

Mr. Brame has friends.

Special people that do special jobs.

Contracts.

You know about contracts?

Yeah.

He let a contract on your cop.

To k*ll him?

Well, what else?

When?

Look, I don't know everything.
That wouldn't be smart.

But you must have some idea.

Well, he sent that cop chasing off somewhere.

When he gets where he's going,
that's when it'll happen.

- Where?
- Told you, I don't know.

I wasn't around for that part.

Well, look,
I’ve got to talk to your boss.

Too late for that.
He is on his way to London.

No, not till next week--

Changed his plans.

He's flying his own plane out
tonight at .

Making connections in New York.

Seven o'clock.

Okay,
can we get to the airport by : '?

Look, not me.
I'm only delivering a message.

Well, let me borrow you car then.

No.

Now, look, I don't like trouble.

You won't make it.

Have you seen a Mr. Brame?

- You're looking the wrong way.
- What do you mean?

Too bad. You only missed him
by a few minutes.

Yeah, thanks.

Yes, Mr. Brame asked me to call you
and tell you his plane just left

and he expects a oar
to be waiting for him in New York.

Then he'll be taken to Kennedy Field
for the flight to London.

No, that's all. Thanks.

Get lost. You are in big trouble
and I don't wanna be seen with you.

I wanna ask you one question.

What happened to that lieutenant
that was at the house?

I could turn you in.
Tell them who you are.

Yeah, I know that.

Oh, yeah. Honest Sam.

You almost had me believing I'd
finally met somebody really decent.

No angles, no con.

And what does he turn out to be?
The lowest. A wife k*ller.

Well, if it makes any difference,
I didn’t k*ll her.

Nothing you say
makes any difference.

Well, then just tell me
where I can find the lieutenant.

What kind of a game is this?

Why aren't you running?

As bad as he wants you,
Arthur gave you your chance.

Oh.

I just think
there's something happening.

I think you know.

I don't know anything.
So leave me alone or I will yell cop.

I don't think so.

Remember, I'm the one
that saved Mr. Brame's life.

What do you think he'd do
to somebody that turned me in?

All right, Honest Sam,

now you're talking
like I'd expect you to.

But I still don't know anything.

You must have some idea
of what he's planning.

Sure, he was planning to take a trip,

which is just what he did because I just
put him in his plane to go to New York.

And then to London.

Well, that’s convenient.

If you think something so terrible
is happening,

why don't you call the police?

I'll do that.

Yes, this is Lieutenant Gerard's office,
but he's not here.

I know that, but it's urgent
that I get in touch with him.

Well, I’m sorry, we’re not in direct communication with him right now.

Perhaps tomorrow.

No, that could be too late.

Too late for what?

Look, if it's urgent, I could start
checking right now and call you back.

Is there anyplace I could check?

Trace this.

Well, let’s see,
if you wanna give me your name...

That's not important.

Well, it matters to us.

You must understand
that if it's police business

we're more than willing to cooperate,

but we expect
the same cooperation in return.

Surely you understand that?

All right, listen carefully.

You tell him that there's a man
been hired to k*ll him.

Hold on. Hold on.

I think I need a cup of coffee
or something.

Well, we haven’t got time for that.

You'd better find the time.

All right.

I think you and I can make a deal.

I wanna know what's going on too.

I thought you knew.

Well, maybe you put some doubts
in my mind.

Any other reason?

What are you doing here?
What do you want with Arthur?

Well, we both have
some of the answers,

maybe if we put them together
they'll add up to something.

Maybe.

Well, then let’s start with you.

Where did Brame send
that police lieutenant?

Well, he sent him
to his processing plant in Pittsburgh

to see his number one man,
Jim Delaney.

Brame identified me?

Only to throw them off the track.

Did he tell the lieutenant
that I was at the plant?

No, he made it clear
you wouldn't be there.

He's only seeing Delaney
for information.

So Gerard would go alone
and ask for no help.

You think somethings
gonna happen?

Yes.
Unless you haven't told me something.

You think Arthur
has planned something, but he hasn't.

Well, Arthur's going to have
the police lieutenant k*lled.

Oh, no. No, that's not true.

It's true. Clark told me.

And you believed him just because
of what you've heard of the past,

but Arthur is not like that any more.

I'm not interested in the past.

What concerns me
is what's happening right now.

Well, I am concerned about Arthur.

He is the only person
that means anything to me.

Then you help me
warn the lieutenant.

If nothing happens, no harm will come
to anyone, including Arthur.

No. No, I don't wanna know.

Well, then tell me
how to get to the processing plant.

You won't need directions.
I'll take you.

You didn't see anything,
and you don't remember anything.

You spent man hours
trying to fix a perfectly good circuit.

Why, a shoemaker would guess there was a break in the wiring.

There. Ten to one
you'll find your trouble right here.

- Which one of you is Delaney?
- It can wait.

Tell Carter to get--

Didn't they tell you
I was waiting in your office?

You Lieutenant Gerard?

Yeah, they told me. They also told me
we had an emergency.

So have I. Or maybe you think
a mechanical repair takes priority--

My people cooperated with you,
didn't they?

Gave you the run of the place,
let you look through personnel files.

The man I wanted wasn't there.

So you're looking in the wrong place,
like Mike here.

I was told this man works here.

You were told wrong.

I never saw him before.

Brame said he worked at the farm.

Part-timer I wouldn't know about.

Brame also said he was put
on full-time. Sent to you for placement.

Somewhere you got
your wires crossed, lieutenant.

I've never seen this guy. He's never
been here. I've never hired him.

What else can I tell you?

You saying Brame lied to me?

You know I got better sense
than that.

All I'm saying is
you misunderstood him.

If Brame had sent you here on a lie,
he would call me to cover for him.

Maybe he did.

Maybe your secretary
just lost the slip.

We're closing up, lieutenant.
Don't you get lost on the way out.

You tell Carter,
just what I said, it's right here.

Ten to one, it's right there.

- Gerard's here.
- In there?

No, he's in a building.
Building number .

You wait here.

No.

Look,
if I'm going to be caught out there

between Gerard and whoever it is,

I'll have a better chance by myself.

You stay here.

Gerard!
Get down! Gerard, get down!

There's a k*ller out there.

He's trying to k*ll you.

A k*ller?

You warn me about a k*ller
and then you hold a g*n on me.

You have your own unique
sense of justice.

We can talk about justice later.

That wasn't my doing.

Well, this k*lling isn’t mine.

Shall I tell you something, Kimble?

I'd never believe it was.

I think I know that much about you.

Well, we're not out of here yet.

Until we are, I'll just hold on to this.

All right, you've got the g*n, use it.
sh**t that light out.

We'll have a better chance
in the dark.

From here on, stay close to me,
you understand?

Arthur, no.

Kimble's with him.
He doesn't want him k*lled.

- I can't help it if he's a fool.
- Look, I've got the oar.

No, I've set this trap
and he can't get out.

This will square the whole thing.

You're not doing this for him.
You're doing this for you.

You've missed k*lling.

Why, you get some kind
• of kick out of it. Aah!•

Kimble!

Well, he can’t have gotten far
if you set up your road blocks quickly.

No, I am not trying
to tell you your business.

All right. Thank you, sergeant.

Back there,

you had a choice.

Arthur,
or the one you've been chasing.

That's right.

Why?

Why couldn't it have been
the other one?

I wanted both of them,

but one of them is a k*ller.

He'd k*lled before and if he'd
gotten away, he'd have k*lled again.

The other one, Kimble,

he's done the one m*rder
he'd probably ever do.

Until I find him--

And I will.

--He's no real menace

to anyone but himself.

Honest Sam.

No real menace
to anyone but himself

That's the way it must be
for Richard Kimble,

still alone and hunted.

Even the good he might do is unable
to balance the scales of justice

which have made him,
and keep him, a fugitive.
