08x22 - The Detonator

[bunniefuu]

[intense music]

You get that 10,000 ready

and you send anybody else after me, you'll know what trouble is.

Wait a minute, wait a minute. Didn't Middleton talk to you?

Stay by that phone today. I'll call again late afternoon.

Alex! Wait a minute..

[music continues]

He's crazy.

[tires screeching]

FBI, Tanner.

[instrumental music]

[tires screeching]

[music continues]

Is Ms. Benson there?

Yes.

We think there's a b*mb in her briefcase.

What?

Will.

It's ticking. I can hear it ticking!

[instrumental music]

You're wanting to make out, friend?

[music continues]

[music continues]

Oh, successful morning, I see.

Finally, after a week.

I'd figure these are costing me $40 a pound.

That's about par for the course. It's worth it though.

Up at 4:30. Well, so are you, burning the midnight oil.

It's a difficult brief, Ed.

I think when I get back from the village, I'm just gonna sleep

for about 24 hours.

Oh, that's right.

- Your date for supplies. - Yeah.

I'll make you a swap, Will.

You clean the catch and grab yourself a few wings

while I'm fetching the supplies

and then we'll have a trout breakfast when I get back.

Oh-h*, there's no way I'm gonna turn down that offer.

They-they have the list over at the store.

Everything should be ready.

- No problem. - Thank you, Ed.

[engine revving]

[expl*si*n]

[dramatic music]

You have a nice day too.

On the morning of August 11th, an attempt was made on the life

of William Sanders, the much publicized prosecuting attorney

of Bellflower County, as he was vacationing

in the Franklin National Forest in Western Pennsylvania.

But the attempt backfired when a local resident started off

in a boat rigged with a b*mb meant for the prosecutor.

Because the crime occurred in a National Forest

the FBI was called into the case

and Inspector Lewis Erskine and Special Agent Tom Colby

arrived to spearhead the investigation.

What's the latest on Haskell?

Oh, he's still in serious condition, inspector

but he's expected to live.

Are they having any luck?

Uh, that's a soft bottom, but we are recovering metal fragments

other than from the outboard engine.

Looks like it might be part of a b*mb container.

I'll get what we have to the lab right away.

Where's Sanders?

He's coming out of his house now.

'He's still pretty shaky after diving for Haskell'

and bringing him up.

Maybe he can talk to us.

Will, this is Inspector Erskine and Special Agent Colby.

Nice to know you, gentlemen.

I just wish it were under a different circumstances.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

Now, that poor old man Haskell.

He recently retired from the power company.

He was just trying to catch up on some fishing.

Well, we understand he is going to make it, Mr. Sanders.

Well, thank God for that.

I'm sure that b*mb was meant for me.

Anyone you suspect?

No, I've drawn a blank so far.

You see, I've been prosecuting criminal cases

in this county for many years.

I'm sure a man like me makes enemies.

Of course.

Well, you might get some ideas going back over your files.

It would help us to have a list of the people you've convicted

who have been released from prison recently.

Well, I'm going back tonight

I can have it for you in the morning.

Inspector, this is Mrs. Kelham.

She has a cabin just down the road.

She has some interesting information for us.

It's been sticking in my head all morning long

since this terrible thing happened.

It's not unusual to see a car pull off the road.

Lots of people do that, traveling in the park at night

if they get sleepy.

It must have been after 2:00 in the morning

my dog never barks, he just whines

so, I got up thinking he simply wanted to go outside

and then I saw this car.

'A station wagon pulled off the road.'

Can you describe the car for us, Mrs. Kelham?

Well, it was light color, tan, maybe

and the, uh, left window in the rear was cracked.

I didn't see anybody in it, but I did see a man down in the dock

right near Mr. Sanders' boat.

Did you get a good look at him?

No. When he came back up, I went inside and locked the door.

Then I heard the car drive away a few minutes later.

Thanks, Mrs. Kelham. You've been a big help.

You're welcome.

You know, I, uh, I was wondering why Mr. Haskell

was using your boat?

Well, he was picking up supplies for me. I've been up all night.

See, every Wednesday morning, I go over to the Landing Store

and they have my supplies ready. It's an arrangement I've made.

Every Wednesday morning?

Yeah.

The travel routines, Mr. Sanders, is that

they can be observed and studied.

Yes, I see what you mean.

[instrumental music]

Daddy, why can't I have one?

Well, I think they're happier here, honey.

I'll buy you a stuffed one, okay?

Okay.

[music continues]

How'd you like an ice cream cone, hmm?

Would you like to go on up there all by yourself?

And you could bring the change back to daddy. Daddy will watch.

[intense music]

The kid's cute. Wife must have been a real looker.

- What are you doing here? - Well..

You-you weren't at the club

your barkeep said you might be over here with your kid.

I asked what are you doing here?

[chuckles]

I got it done ahead of time. Where can we meet for the cash?

Ahead of time, huh?

You don't listen to the radio, do you?

Not only was it the wrong man in that boat that blew up

but he wasn't even k*lled.

'Neither would Sanders have been k*lled.'

It happens.

What do you mean? Is that all you have to say?

Well, I'll take care of it.

I've already given you five grand.

You think I wanna pay you the rest?

No, no. I won't take another dime until the job is done.

You're not satisfied, I'm not. I'll go after him again.

Wait a minute, we-we gotta talk about it later

it-it just doesn't have the right feel now--

Told you, I'll get it done.

Can we see the bears now, daddy?

Yeah, in a minute, honey.

Here, grab a handful, good for you

see it's any kind that's..

Come on, daddy.

When it's done, you'll hear from me.

Hey, listen, come here, wait-wait a minute..

Where can I get in touch with you

later, if we were to talk about it?

We don't have to talk, we don't have to meet.

Like that, it's done. That's when you'll hear from me.

Come on, daddy.

Alright, okay.

Thank you. Come again.

Well, I, um, I think I'd have remembered

a tan station wagon.

[scoffs] Well, you might try the station

down at the junction about 40 miles south.

Yes, sir, we've already been there.

You have anyone helping you out here?

Well, yeah, now that you mention it.

Jimmy, my grandson, Jimmy.

Well, he spelled me for about 20 minutes

just before closing time last night.

Jimmy! He's a bright boy, my grandson.

Reminds me of me when I was young.

Uh, Jimmy, these two men are FBI agents

and they're wanting to know if a tan station wagon

with a cracked side window

pulled in here for gas last night, hmm?

Hey, sure, I remember it.

Well, maybe I wouldn't have noticed it

but the man behind the wheel

was cracking nuts with his teeth.

About what time is this, Jimmy?

Mmm, it's near 8:00.

Would you believe they were walnuts?

You know, we used to have a guy in class

who would open soda pop bottles with his teeth on a bet.

Well, that's why I started looking at him.

Sends shivers up your back.

Well, does mine anyway.

You got a good look at him then?

Well, I-I kept watching him

crack those nuts gassing the car.

Glasses are the first thing you notice about him.

Big rimmed, hair kinda long

uh, not too young maybe around 30.

Jimmy, do you think you could help one of our artists

uh, draw a picture of this man?

Yes, I read about that. Sure, I can do that easy.

Good.

[intense music]

Stock the office when you get a chance, and..

And tell that linen man that we got a couple of things

to talk about in case I don't see him.

Hey, Joe.

You're a little early, eh?

Thirty-two hundred, right.

Look, lay the Cotter money out of state

that points for we don't like you.

Tony, hang it up and Take a break.

Let him finish. Why chase business?

What can I get you boys?

[exhales]

It's too early, Albert.

No, no, no, we'll take all your Belmont.

Now, look, let's double-check.

You've got 6800 laid off in the opening game, right?

Tony! Call him back later.

Hang around for ten minutes, I'll get back to you.

Not one of your better days, Albert?

Uh, I got a dozen problems jamming me up.

I just didn't expect you guys to come by today.

I think I got enough to cover for this month though.

It's not the day..

...or the business.

[speaks softly] What?

Maybe I'll have one.

You're doing very nicely here, Albert.

The organization is happy to have a good man like you

who knows how to handle an operation for them.

They way you do this place.

Johnny said to tell you that.

Well, I try, you know.

I try.

Yeah, but he's a little unhappy about the Bellflower prosecutor

almost getting himself blown up.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Heard something about that on the radio.

Yeah, it's bad for business.

County DA gets it and you can feel the heat

all over the state.

Yeah, well, you know, a man and his business

anybody could be after him.

I'm a busy man, Albert. No time for games.

How'd you find out?

Well, how many people handle hit contracts.

Middleton.

Middleton's not supposed to talk.

When Johnny asks a question, Middleton doesn't talk?

Look, this is personal business, I got that right.

When it touches all of us?

Albert, nobody makes a dollar paying off a grudge.

But it's me he sent to prison.

Not any of you.

You didn't lose your wife on her deathbed

after watching me on trial for two months.

He had you cold, and he did his job.

He singled me out.

He wanted to make an impression his first year in office.

But a dozen men digging into my business. He wanted me.

Cost me my wife, three years in prison.

My daughter never even knew who her father was.

That's personal!

Shut up!

Forgive me, I'm, uh..

You know, a temper is a bad thing cause it's catching

and angry men don't make any sense.

"Maybe you can talk to him," Johnny said.

We're just talking

that's what we're doing, we're talking.

I just think it's, uh, a man has a right to personal business.

I would say yes, I would say no.

You know, if Mr. Sanders were on a vacation hunting bears

and a bear chewed him to death, maybe yes.

If there were 16 witnesses

to say it was the bear, maybe yes.

Straight and simple, Albert. You made a mistake, that's all.

Simple words are sometimes the best.

There would be no misunderstanding.

If anything happens to Mr. Sanders

you're out of business.

'And you'd be getting a call from Johnny's boys.'

Now, let's stay a happy organization, huh?

I mean, a man eats the best, and he drinks the finest

'it's not reasonable that he cuts his own throat.'

[intense music]

[intense music]

Here are the records and photos

of the men released in the past twelve months.

Now, some of those are on parole.

We know where they are.

Others have completed their sentences

and all we have are their last known addresses.

Anyone you'd concentrate on in particular?

No.

They just finished. Here he is.

Hmm.

Does he look familiar to you?

No, I can't recall ever having seen him.

Oh, gentlemen, this is Ruth Benson

one of my assistants.

Inspector Erskine, Special Agent Colby.

- Glad to meet you. - You too.

Oh, we also happen to be engaged.

Well, congratulations.

I called Mrs. Haskell

and she says her husband is well out of danger.

Well, that's good news.

[telephone ringing]

Sanders. Yes, he's here. Inspector.

Thank you.

Erskine.

We've located the car, inspector.

It's a rental.

Yes, and the clerk here identified the man

from the sketch.

'The car was signed out on the 10th to a David Smith'

'giving a Philadelphia address. It's fictitious.'

- Any latents? - Yes.

We've had some luck there. The agents are finishing up now.

'Oh, we have a sample of his handwriting'

'on the rental form that he filled out.'

Alright, Warren, good work.

Well, inspector, if there's nothing else

Ruth and I would like to go out to dinner.

You know, it might be a good idea

if you avoided public places as much as possible.

And I had asked the police to keep an eye on your house.

Well, I suppose you're right.

How about a home cooked meal tonight?

I'll try to show you I'm improving.

One more thing, Mr. Sanders, I'm sure you realize

that this man has been watching you pretty closely?

In fact he probably knows your routine by heart.

It would help us if we had some idea

of your average daily schedule.

Of course, um..

Well, um, Monday mornings, I check in here

from 8:00 to 9:00.

What time do you leave the house?

Uh, 7:30.

[instrumental music]

Thank you.

Hi.

I told the barkeeper we had a meeting.

He fixed me up with a drink. I guess it's on the house.

- What took you so long? - I was busy.

Now, look, I know Alex, don't worry about it.

He'll get the job done.

That's like telling me I got cancer and not to worry.

I want you to call him off.

You changing your mind?

Yeah. Give me his phone number.

Phone?

I want to make sure he doesn't hire a balloon

and start dropping dynamite

all over the Bellflower courthouse.

That's what I'm beginning to think about your boy.

Oh, it was just a slip.

I'm not talking about a slip, I've met your boy twice now

and I'm beginning to get an impression that I don't like.

'Is he operating with all his marbles?'

Don't worry about that. You'll get what you paid for.

I don't want what I paid for.

I want you to get him on the phone right away.

Now, look, my end is finished once you buy the introduction.

I don't touch anything from then on.

Your end will be finished if Alex isn't contacted right away.

Johnny says it's a no go

and you get it through that thick head of yours

that you're gonna go down the drain along with me.

- That's the word? - Yes.

Now, get him on the phone from here.

Just dial a number and say

"Listen, we don't want the guy k*lled."

No, I gotta trip. It's always face to face.

I don't care, but move...fast!

Talkin' about that 5,000 advance.

You're talking about money

and he's someplace making another b*mb.

[intense music]

Now, what about that little farm of Wilson's?

It's only a half hour drive to the courthouse.

Country living, city frills.

I was hoping you'd be suggesting that.

I don't mind hearing those typewriters

in the court room by day

if we can have crickets at night.

He doesn't want too bad a price for it.

You know, the house is about a hundred years old

but if I know him, he's replaced every beam.

Oh, let's do it. Country folk at night anyway.

You're on.

[chuckles]

I bet you didn't know I had a green thumb?

What?

I once experimented with an apple tree

grafted a parachute to it.

[thud]

[screams]

It's alright, honey. It's okay.

That was just a door, just, just a breeze.

You know, we're, uh, we're talking about everything

except what's on our minds.

I'm alright.

He's after me

and he is hurting everybody around me.

I'm so frightened for you.

That's alright.

He's probably not even around

he's probably a thousand miles away from here.

I haven't slept a night since it happened.

I know.

You've been looking tired lately.

Come on, you belong home.

[Ruth sighs]

[intense music]

[engine starts]

[music continues]

Here's the file on Clarence Wittier.

We can eliminate him. He's doing time again in Canada.

Albert Dirks, gambling, conviction.

[telephone buzzes]

Erskine.

We've identified the subject, Lewis. He's Alex Tanner.

[Erskine] 'Wasn't he convicted in the anti-racketeering case'

in Eagan, the, uh, bombing of a cleaning establishment?

That's right. He was released six months ago.

The lab says the b*mb fragments appear to be

from the same kind of device used in the Eagan bombings.

Now, we also matched the writing on the car rental form

with known samples of Tanner's handwriting.

'And the latents match his fingerprint record.'

Any relation between Tanner and Sanders?

Not that we know of yet, but Tanner works for hire

'and whoever used him in the Sanders job'

'can't be too happy with him now.'

[instrumental music]

[car horn blares]

[music continues]

How you making it, kid?

Come up with another job for me?

No, no.

But a good news though.

That 5000, it's yours.

You did your best. All a man could be asked to do.

You can forget about Sanders, the whole thing is off.

What's that you working on?

'Timer.'

Ah, you're the best around, Alex.

'We'll do some more business together.'

Being the best is working hard.

You, you did hear me say that it's off?

I heard. I got five, another ten coming.

No, no, no, no, you got five

and, uh, it's off, the whole thing's off.

[chuckles]

I don't do botch jobs.

Dirks is getting his money's worth.

Eh, but he doesn't want it done.

Mr. Middleton, you do pretty well.

Run a pool hall for a cover

good action from people that need you?

Oh, the same for me, job guaranteed, huh?

My name is my bond, like the saying goes.

But, Alex, it doesn't have to be done.

Word gets out, Alex has greasy fingers.

Reputation, Mr. Middleton.

[chuckles]

Hmm, mine's as good as yours.

Nothing's changed about Sanders

because the first time didn't work.

Second time is just as good.

Now, look, Alex, just hold it, huh? Just wait a minute--

You will hold it.

You know how much time I spent sizing Sanders up?

Two months.

I can tell you when he eats, sleeps, gets up.

His shoes are shined every morning

by the boy outside the courthouse.

Cleaning lady at the house

every Tuesday in at 10:00, out at 4:30.

That woman he's marrying?

I know more about her than he does.

Look, Alex, yo-yo-your client is saying no.

Like tomorrow, Sunday, her mother makes dinner.

Sanders arrives at 5:00, dinner's over at 6:30.

Between 7:00 and 10:00, Sanders is in the study

with that woman going over their cases

for the court appearances Monday morning.

Every Sunday night they're in that study from 7:00 to 10:00.

Alex, you know your job

you're a good man, and I'm keeping it in mind

but Dirks doesn't wanna have it done.

Dirks is out of the picture.

Except for the 10,000 I got coming.

Alright, wrap it up.

You and I are driving back to the city.

'You're gonna see some guys who can talk some sense into you.'

You don't want it done, that's it.

No, I can't trust you anymore, Alex.

I want the guys in the city to hear you say

that you're gonna behave.

'In that way, it's not mine that can Dirks'

in case you go off to the deep end.

Now, come on, put your coat on.

Put this stuff away first.

[expl*si*n]

[screaming]

[groaning]

[dramatic music]

[music continues]

[expl*si*n]

Several people in the area have seen Tanner

coming and going around here for the last few months.

But nobody has any idea where he might be now.

[Erskine] 'You talked to the hospital?'

Yes, Middleton should live

but he's in no condition to talk to anyone.

[sighs] Did you find out what he does?

He runs a pool hall downtown.

Take a look at this.

'An address book, found in Tanner's coat.'

Let's hope the lab can come up with something.

[instrumental music]

[intense music]

Look, we won't have a line before 11:00. Call me then.

[telephone rings]

Yes. It's for you.

Okay. Yeah.

You get that 10,000 ready

and you send anybody else after me

you'll know what trouble is.

Wait a minute, wait a minute. Didn't Middleton talk to you?

Stay by that phone today. I'll call again, late afternoon.

Alex, wait a minute. Wa..

He's crazy.

[intense music]

This was taken almost 12 years ago

when Middleton was charged with assaulting a federal officer.

No, I've never been involved with him to my recollection.

- Are you positive? - I'm afraid so.

[telephone buzzes]

Sanders.

Yes, he's here.

- For you. - Oh, thank you.

Excuse me.

Erskine.

Lewis, we've been able to identify some of the names

and phone numbers from the address book.

Uh, Arthur, Tom's here. He's getting on the extension.

Yes, sir.

"Jan Carter, uh, 3-8 exchange."

The rest of it we can't make out.

"Harold B.L." No phone.

"John Stevens, 1-8-2-5-4-9-5."

"Albert Dirks, 2-1-2-8-9-6.." The last digit we can't get.

Albert Dirks. Isn't he on Sanders' list?

I think so.

Mr. Ward, Dirks was prosecuted

by Sanders a number of years ago and convicted.

It was a gambling violation, he was recently released.

[Ruth] 'Mom, pick me up some hose if you're in the mart.'

'And don't forget, Will's coming to dinner.'

I won't forget.

[instrumental music]

[intense music]

[doorbell rings]

Mrs. Benson?

Um, missus would be my mother.

Why, I think I have the right house, uh..

Muller's Electrical put in some new conduit

for you about a month ago?

Yes, that's right.

Um, sorry to trouble you today

but have you had any problems with it since then?

None that I know of.

Good, we've been getting a few complaints

so Mr. Muller wants to run a spot check on all recent work.

Correct any deficiencies before they occur.

Simple matter of metering your outlets

uh, only a few minutes if that wouldn't trouble you?

Come on in.

Oh, do you need me around? I'm expecting company, you see.

No, you just go right on with whatever you're doing.

We found some of our recent jobs have been improperly wired.

Mr. Muller's fit to be tied, I can tell you.

We may find that you're okay

if not, we'll rewire it, no extra charge.

Fine. Just call if you need me.

Sure, thanks.

[telephone ringing]

Hello. Oh, hi, darling.

Honey, do you have the affidavits in that Bitford case?

Well, yeah, they-they're right on my desk.

Uh, good.

I think we can wrap the whole thing up tonight

if he doesn't have another change of heart.

I made an appointment at 7 o'clock in his hospital room.

Oh, fine. Boy, I'll be glad to get that out of our hair.

Uh, at 7:00, huh?

But suppose I meet you

at the Memorial Hospital at quarter two.

I'll see you there.

Bye.

Wiring seem alright?

- Well, so far good. - Good.

Well, I have a lot to do, so, you can let yourself out

when you're finished.

- Fine, Ms. Benson. - Bye.

[intense music]

[ticking]

[Mrs. Benson] What are you doing?

[music continues]

Just, uh, moving the desk, Mrs. Benson.

Your daughter let me in to check your electrical outlets.

Mr. Muller's spot checking all the work we did last month.

We've had no trouble.

Oh, no, ma'am, and I don't think you're going to.

We caught one job with lighter and standard wiring

and Mr. Muller's hoping there's no others.

Oh, you're fine.

Quite a rain we had the night before last, huh?

I'll pass the night with my missus with buckets.

It sure was.

Well, uh, thank Mr. Muller for me.

Glad to.

- And thank you. - Bye-bye.

Bye.

[intense music]

[intense music]

[woman on PA] 'Nurse Haith, Nurse Anne Haith'

'there's a message for you in the superintendent's office.'

Would you have any change for the telephone, miss?

Just a minute, I'll see.

Yes, uh, there's some. Here you are.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

[knock on door] Yeah.

We're with the FBI, Mr. Dirks.

I'm Inspector Erskine. This is Special Agent Colby.

We'd like to talk to you.

Yeah, sure. What can I do for you?

Well, first we want to advise you of your rights.

You have the right to remain silent

anything you say can be used against you.

'And you have the right to an attorney.'

Who needs an attorney?

'Look, I run a club here'

'if I've stepped out of line someplace'

'I wanna know about it.'

'You acquainted with this man?'

- No. - Take a closer look, Mr. Dirks.

His name is Alex Tanner.

No, I never saw him before.

We have reason to believe he knows you.

Hm, maybe he does.

Maybe he used to place bets with me.

I was in the book business before I got busted.

What about the name Middleton? Clavin Middleton?

No, never heard of him ei.. Wait a minute, yes, I did.

It was in the morning newspapers

some fire, some kind of accident.

[telephone ringing]

Excuse me. Yeah.

You got that money ready?

I can't talk right now.

Just say yes or no. Will the money be ready?

Uh, look, why don't you, uh

call me back, in say, ten minutes?

It's set to go at 7:00. I'll be here, watching.

Just make sure there's no hang-ups.

'You have that 10,000 waiting for me at the office.'

I told you, no!

Sounds as if you have troubles, Mr. Dirks.

That's just, uh, business. That's all.

Alex Tanner.

Told you, didn't know anything.

I'm on a squeeze, I'm really on a squeeze.

Alright, maybe you can stop him.

I told him I didn't want it done.

What don't you want done?

It's set to go at 7:00. He's gonna be there watching.

Where, I don't know, but he's got a b*mb.



Sanders will be at the Benson house for dinner.

[sires wailing]

[intense music]

[tires screeching]

[man on radio] 'Unit 9 to unit 1.'

One, go ahead.

Inspector, a search of the Benson house

has turned up nothing.

Mrs. Benson is here with me now.

She says there was a man in the house

late this afternoon.

He claimed he was sent by some electrical company.

'We've checked. The company didn't send anyone.'

Where is Sanders and Ms. Benson?

Ms. Benson left earlier.

She's meeting Sanders at Memorial Hospital.

Can her mother hear me?

'Yes, inspector.'

Mrs. Benson, can you describe the man?

Well, he was about, uh, six feet tall I'd say.

Polite, uh, kinda shaggy hair.

His face rather plain.

And what was he doing in the house?

Well, we were only together for a minute. He was in the study.

I wondered at first if he was trying to steal something

because he had Ruth's briefcase in his hands

'but he was only trying to move the desk.'

What about the desk, Bob?

We searched it, nothing.

'And the briefcase?'

She took it with her.

Ms. Benson took it with her.

Mrs. Benson, do you have any idea

'what time your daughter is meeting Mr. Sanders?'

Yes, 7 o'clock.

'She left early because Will likes to be punctual.'

Bob, get all units out of the hospital as quickly as possible

and call Sanders.

Tell him we think she may be carrying a b*mb

in her briefcase.

[intense music]

[music continues]

Hi, darling.

[music continues]

Yes, he just came in.

Do you want to talk to him or shall I take a message?

Oh, of course. Mr. Sanders! Mr..

I just missed him.

Hold on and I'll connect you with the fourth floor west wing.

Mr. Sanders made arrangement to talk with the patient there.

Uh, we have time, you wanna stop and see Nurse Stuart?

- See how she's doing? - Good idea.

I've been promising myself to see her.

Okay.

[man on radio] 'Unit 9 to 1.'

This is 1.

'We're having difficulty'

'locating Sanders and Ms. Benson.'

'They're in the hospital but not with the patient'

'they were going to visit. They're being paged now.'

[woman on PA] 'Mr. William Sanders'

'please call main reception immediately.'

[laughing]

Well, I couldn't convince her she was wrong.

She saw the baby room as she calls it

and she saw people pointing

and babies been held up for display

and she just knew that's the way you did it.

You pick out your own baby brother.

[all laughing]

Was little Ann finally disappointed?

Well, sure, the baby she saw were lot prettier

than the one I picked out.

[laughing]

[woman on PA] 'Please call main floor reception.'

'Mr. William Sanders, please call main floor reception.'

[intense music]

[tires screeching]

[music continues]

[tires screeching]

[tires screeching]

FBI, Tanner.

[dramatic music]

[tires screeching]

[tires screeching]

What kind of b*mb did you put in that briefcase?

[music continues]

Now, listen, if there's anything you need

you'll let us know, will you?

Well, you make sure I get invitation to your wedding.

- You will. Bye. - Bye, baby. Take care.

- Okay. - Bye.

[woman on PA] 'Mr. William Sanders'

'please call main reception immediately.'

'Mr. William Sanders, please call main floor reception.'

[intense music]

Yeah, this is William Sanders.

Fifth floor.

- Is Ms. Benson there? - Yes.

We think there's a b*mb in her briefcase.

What?

Will!

It's ticking. I can hear it ticking!

[music continues]

They-they're ticking!

Have them clear the corridor and close all the doors.

Alright, clear the corridor, keep it moving, shut the doors!

Come on! Hurry up! Hurry! Hurry!

It's locked!

We've got seconds, Lou.

[intense music]

Breaking the cord may activate it.

Lewis..

I think I feel it in there.

Slide your finger in next to mine.

The lean wire is the detonator.

I think I got 'em.

[clock ticking]

[ticking continues]

[ticking stops]

[exhales]

[dramatic music]

The air smells so good.

Like New Hayes.

She's talking about that old farm of mine.

I think we better get out there

before the owner decides not to sell.

Well, I hope it brings you both great happiness.

- Thank you. - Good luck.

Thank you.
