:23:00
Has he been found yet? Why?
Did somebody tell you he was gone?
:23:05
I just spent several hours
driving up here from San Diego.
:23:08
This story is on every news station.
:23:10
Right. Yeah.
Gee, I should have thought of that.
:23:13
- Well, has he been found?
- Gee, I'm afraid not.
:23:16
- Were you visiting friends in San Diego?
- He has a place there, a cabin.
:23:21
Oh, away for the weekend. Gee, that's nice.
:23:24
Could we get back to my question?
Have you come up with any leads, clues?
:23:28
- It's a little early for that.
- Early?
:23:30
Seems to me your men are
standing around just marking time.
:23:34
- Could I have a drink, love?
- I could use one myself.
:23:37
Thanks.
:23:41
I'll tell you something, Lieutenant.
See, if Mrs Melville were on this case,
:23:46
she'd be leaps and bounds ahead of you.
:23:48
- Is that the lady in the books?
- That's right.
:23:52
You see, she would have figured out
that this is not just someone missing.
:23:56
This is a professional killing.
:24:07
Aha. Here it is.
:24:12
- Take a look at that.
- Put it on the desk.
:24:14
Just drop it. Cos of the fingerprints.
:24:17
Jim's fingerprints are all over that.
So are mine.
:24:23
- What is it?
- What's it look like?
:24:25
It's a list of names. Look at that.
Mustel, Delgado, Hathaway, Westlake.
:24:31
Sound familiar?
:24:33
- Yeah, kind of.
- Well, they should.
:24:35
That's some of the top men
in organised crime on the West Coast.
:24:39
- LA, Vegas, Frisco...
- I don't understand.
:24:42
Well, it's painfully obvious.
One of these men had Jim killed.
:24:46
Really? Why?
:24:48
Tell me something.
How long have you been a lieutenant?
:24:52
Mrs Melville would have
put that together like that.
:24:55
Look, I'm willing to take
all the help I can get.
:24:58
Let me see if I can explain it to you.
