05x04 - Island Angels

Post by bunniefuu »

Once upon a time,

there were three
beautiful girls.

Two of them graduated
from the police academy.

The other graduated from
a top school for models.

And they each
reaped their rewards

of their exciting careers.

But I took them
away from all that,

and now they work for me.

My name is Charlie.

♪♪

Lieutenant, that's
a pretty wild story.

A professional assassin
coming to Hawaii to fill a contract.

Sounds more like a case
for James Bond instead of us.

Why did you come
to us, lieutenant?

Because of her.

Me?

Washington gave
me your name. Why?

You were on vacation in
Mexico City two years ago.

Yeah?

And you were at
the train station...

When the man went
berserk and sh*t up the place.

Not berserk.

He was a hired assassin.

The same man we think
is on the way to Hawaii

And you think I
can identify him?

Can you?

I'll never forget him.

Then you'll help us?

Of course we will.
When do we start?

At the airport right now.

♪♪

A t*rror1st attempt was just
made in the Athens Airport

on the life of Eric Nilsson

the head of World Pac,

the international
peace organization.

Nilsson survived but three
of his bodyguards didn't.

The Red Circle
is claiming credit.

More importantly, they've vowed

that he'll never live to
make his next speech.

Which he's supposed
to deliver here

at the convention
center on Saturday.

I don't have to tell
you how important it is

that the assassin doesn't
get out of the airport.

If he gets out there
among all those tourists,

we may not get him at all.

At least, not in time.

Let's go.

Lieutenant.

You know, the airport
isn't the only way

to get onto these islands.

No, but it's the
most likely way.

But just to assure, we have
the men covering the harbor.

♪♪

This will be Flight 901.

Last stop was L.A.

Most of the passengers are
with the singles tour. Club Aloha.

They're going to take over
the Paradise Beach Hotel

for two weeks.

What makes you
think the assassin

will be on this
particular flight?

We are planning on
covering all the flights,

especially the ones
from the mainland.

See you later.

Well, the Red Circle's
a European g*ng.

Wouldn't he be
coming in from Europe?

Now, if you were gonna come
to Hawaii to k*ll somebody,

would you spend
an hour in customs

or would you clear
customs on the mainland

where nobody's looking for you?

You're right. I got you.

Here they come.

Passengers for Flight 709
may now board at Gate 16.

Gate 16.

Okay.

♪♪

That's him.

He's wearing a moustache.

Taxi!

Sorry, this cab's taken.

Hold it right there.

Why don't you give it all up?

You heard.

Are you all cops?

Just say we're good friends.

Friends?

Is there a law against
wearing a moustache?

No.

But there is one against
using a false passport.

Bureaucrats.

They're all imbeciles.

They must have, uh,
confused the passports.

But this is your suitcase.

It appears so.

And these are your clothes?

They seem so.

This would be your machine g*n.

I have never seen it before.

Call on five.

It's Interpol. ID Section.

Yes? What is it?

Lieutenant Torres.

Thank you.

He is Fredrick Ober, all right.

He did time in
France and in ltaly.

The Seret was able
to make a positive ID

on the photo we telexed.

You'll never save
the pig Nilsson.

Where I have failed,
another will succeed.

The Red Circle always succeeds.

Bureaucrats!

Sam, get him out of here.

Thank you, ladies.

And you, Mr. Bosley.

That was pretty easy, wasn't it?

Maybe almost too easy.

Just what I was thinking.

It was what we
were all thinking.

Lieutenant, when the Red Circle
tried to k*ll Nilsson in Athens,

exactly what happened?

He was changing planes.
There was a tour group...

Tour group?

In Athens, it was
a religious group.

Pilgrims going to the Holy Land.

These two Red Circle members

were disguised as
members of the group.

Did you say "two"?

I guess one was a backup
in case the other one failed.

Fortunately, they both failed.

Wait a minute.
What did Ober say?

"Where I have failed,
another will succeed."

In the meantime, while we
were paying that attention to Ober,

another assassin could
have slipped through.

Ober wanted us to catch him.

It was too easy.

We are going to have to
check everyone on that plane.

That's going to
take a long time.

What else can I do?

Lieutenant, didn't you say

that all the singles were
staying at the same hotel?

Well, that should give
us a pretty good idea

where the assassin would be.

Well, yes, probably.

Well, with your
permission, of course,

maybe we could
save you a little time.

With Nilsson due in
Honolulu in less than 72 hours,

I will take all the
help I can get.

I think Julie and
Bos should do a story

on swinging singles.

Hi, I'm Toni Green.

You're from Single
Life magazine?

You're here to do the article?

That's right. I'm John Bosley.

This is my photographer,
Julie Rogers.

Glad to meet you.

Come on, let me show you around.

I can't wait to get started.

You see, I hope to
capture the real story

of life at the
Paradise Beach Hotel.

I mean, who the people
are, why they come here,

what they hope to
find, what they do find.

I think I'll call the article,
"Singles in Paradise."

What do you

Ah. Well, as far
as I'm concerned,

you can call it
anything you want,

as long as you
spell the names right.

Hey, don't forget, we're
doing a picture layout too.

Oh, of course, pictures,
pictures. Lots of pictures.

The beautiful people
in the beautiful setting.

As a matter of fact, the
pictures will probably tell

as much of the
story as the words.

Maybe even more.

Oh, very funny.
Professional jealousy.

Come on.

Can I ask you
something, Mr. Bosley?

Only if you call me John.

John.

All right, what's the question?

Well, actually, it's more
of a favor than a question.

I'd appreciate it if you'd
handle our guests gently

when it comes to
taking pictures of them.

Oh, why is that?

Well, you see, the
philosophy of the club

is to provide an environment

where single people can
get together on equal footing.

You know, where
there aren't a lot of rules.

And while they're all
supposed to be single,

that isn't always the case.

Oh, well, don't
worry about that.

Single Life magazine
is not a scandal sheet.

You see, we would
never take a picture

and print it of anyone
without their permission.

Oh, never.

You don't know how much
better that makes me feel.

How about if I get a sh*t of
the two of you to start things off?

Terrific. If we have

Of course you do.

Whatever he's
having, it's on the club.

Well, I've heard an awful lot

Hopefully soon.

Ah, there you are. How
are you coming, Kelly?

Well, we started
with the plane's crew

and anyone flying
on foreign passport.

There were 13 of them.
But they all seem okay.

Oh, and Toni Green,
the tour director,

looks clean too.

She's been with the
club for three years.

Well, where did
the flight originate?

New York.

But it stopped in Chicago,
Detroit and Minneapolis.

Yeah, all of which are
near the Canadian border.

Right.

Our man travels from
Europe to Canada,

crosses over to the U.S.
at any number of spots,

and then hops a
flight to the islands.

Well, these people
aren't amateurs, are they?

They certainly aren't.

Lieutenant Torres is
tracing Ober's moves

to see if anyone else
followed exactly the same route.

Kelly, listen, do you
think there's any chance

of convincing Nilsson
to delay his visit

until we can assure his safety?

Nilsson won't budge.

Torres' boss tried, the
governor of the state tried,

and he says his schedule's
set and he won't change it.

He doesn't want the Red Circle
to think he can be intimidated.

Well, it seems to me it's
better to be intimidated

than to be dead.

Well, unfortunately,
you're not him.

Bottom line is he'll
be here in 48 hours.

Yeah.

We're impressed too. With you.

Well, I...

Thank you. I just did...

Well, it's not what you
did, it's how you did it.

I don't understand.

Well, Kris means you handled
your part of the assignment

like you'd been
doing it for years.

She's right, Julie.

I've been doing this sort
of thing for a long time.

You're one of the fastest
learners I've ever seen.

And from what
Dr. Williams told me,

she's also a pretty
good marriage counselor.

Oh, wow.

I feel so, uh, dumb.

I have so much to say and I...

Well, what's most important

is that you really make
me feel like I belong.

And that really
means a lot to me.

It's really important
for someone like me

to have friends like you.

Well, Julie, you're more
than a friend to us now.

You're part of the family.

Right.

Yes, indeed.

Welcome. Thanks.

All right.
