Thank you.
You heartless whore.
I'm not about to run from you.
Thomas Jefferson used the Green Room as a dining room.
The walls are covered with green silk...
...just as they were when James Monroe was President.
Many valuable objects and paintings in this room.
We'll move on to the Blue Room.
James Hoban built the Blue Room as an oval...
...to please President Washington.
During the holiday season...
...the White House Christmas tree stands in the middle.
The view from the window includes the Jefferson Memorial.
We'll be moving on to the Red Room.
The walls of the Red Room are covered with red silk.
He was in the building. He took a guided tour.
I've never dealt with blackmail before.
- He doesn't want money. - You're a mind reader too now.
No, I just looked on the back.
See?
"I don't want money."
He has the guts of a burglar. Wish we had him.
Finished your recruiting speech?
Because I'd like to know how I handle this.
Like you handled the letter opener?
Gee, Bill...
...that could be construed as criticism.
You want me for an enemy?
I should've called the police that night but I was weak.
You convinced me to stay silent. I regret that.
Know this:
Every time I see your face, I wanna rip your throat out.
Fine.
You win the pissing contest.
What do I do?
Nothing.
He's making a mistake. He thinks he has time. He doesn't.
Seth Frank's too good. He'll bring him in.
Then what?
Then I kill him.
Miss Whitney?
Thanks.
Miss Whitney?
I'm Seth Frank. Excuse me.
Thanks.
For a tough prosecutor, you sure don't resemble your reputation.
Is that good or bad?
I don't know.
Look, lieutenant, I told you on the phone.
I'm not involved with my father. So this is a waste of time.
Do you expect me to walk out of here?
All right.
Your father disappeared.
- I need your help. - Look.
Lieutenant, I don't know the man.
He was in jail. When he got out, my mom and I lived by ourselves.
He doesn't care about me.
I've seen him once this past year.
Yeah, when?
A few days ago.
He said he might leave town. I helped you. Can I work now?
- Any idea where he went? - Quit wasting my time.
He doesn't want you to find him, you won't.
You're saying he skipped the country?
I'm saying you won't recognize him.
He could be right around the corner.
- He always had a safe house. - Where?
He never said.
How do you know he had one?
My mother loved him, all right?
Even after she left him, when she was dying, he was all she talked about.
"If only he hadn't done this.
- Lf only he hadn't done that." - What else?
- How long has he lived here? - Years.
Never been.
This is a strange place for a thief to leave a key.
He always did that.
He left in a hurry. I wonder what scares a professional thief like that.
He wasn't at these places.
My college graduation...
...my law school graduation, the night my mother and I...
...we went out to celebrate because I'd gotten my first job.
Me alone on the steps. I'd won my first case.
I used to think sometimes...
Sometimes I'd come home and could sense that he'd been in the apartment.
That he'd checked the fridge, shook his head because I never ate right.
I mean, I know it sounds crazy, but I've always...
I've always felt that he was around.
You can do a good thing. Help me bring him in.
Leave a message you're worried about him.
No.
It's true. You're worried. This is no normal case.
His life is in danger. You call, you could save him.
He won't come.
Of course he'll come. You're all he has.
He's on the run and he's scared because he'll get caught.
- You don't know the heat. - He's not a murderer.
Maybe he is innocent.
If that's true, I'll have him home in a few hours.
What if a hotshot trying to make a reputation tracks him down?
I can guarantee his safety.
You make the call, I'll make a promise.
You'll have him back.
- Seth Frank. - Hi.
I left a message on his machine.
He called me back within the hour and I'm meeting him tomorrow.
Where?
Open-air place near my office, Cafe Alonzo.
What time?
Four o 'clock.
It'll be deserted then.
Sounds good. Thanks a lot.
- Bye. - Bye-bye.
Dad, hi.
It's Kate calling.
I was wondering if you could call me, please.
There's some things I'd like to talk with you about...
... and maybe even get together, if that's possible.
Okay?
Thanks and talk to you soon. Bye.
Dad, hi.
It's Kate calling.
I was wondering if you could call me, please.
There's some things I'd like to talk with you about...
... and maybe even get together.
So you all know where and when you're supposed to be there.
He's slippery. He's an eel.
He gets a whiff of a cop, he disappears.
Nobody moves until I order you.
Then we move in on him.
Expect Whitney to show up at 4. His daughter will be waiting for him.
It's important to stay in your positions...
...until you hear the order to move in on him.
Here you go.
Could I have some cream?
Gather around, gentlemen.
Nobody moves till the suspect's in place.
Any questions?
See you at the Alonzo.
Boss is grateful.
He'd appreciate an eyewitness at the capture.
This is our guy.
If he isn't, he sure disappeared fast. See you there.
Tums?
I got my own.
Come on, Kate.
- She gonna show? - Yeah, she'll be here.
Miss?
What you want, please?
Nothing. Thank you.
Got to.
Pardon?
You sit, you eat, please.
Jeez, this guy wasn't part of my master plan.
Unbelievable.
I'm waiting for someone.
Oh, he must eat too, please.
He will. We will. We're gonna...
We'll order half the menu. Just not now.
Maybe that's him disguised as a Chinaman.
Check out this guy in the hat.
I believe that's our man.
All units, suspect's approaching.
Stay in place. Wait for my signal.
I did not kill her. I want you to believe that.
Just hold on. Let him get settled.
You've gotta believe that.
I think we're ready.
Damn it!
Almost.
You okay?
What was that?
Anyone see where those came from?
- Did you do that? - No, we didn't do it!
Anyone see where those shots came from?
Where's Whitney?
Quit standing around here! Go find him!
Take it easy.
Take it easy, now. Stay calm. Stay calm.
There's no reason to panic.
If everyone will just kindly take it easy.
Messy.
I like that in a woman.
Here.
I got a few numbers here.
The top one's...
...Iocal police. That's my office, my home, beeper.
I live alone too. You can call anytime.
Want me to get someone to stay here?
No, I wanna get some sleep.
Surveillance is outside until it's over.
I've got a feeling he'll contact you.
You're on a hot streak, I guess.
Listen, I'm sorry.
Anything unusual at all...
...call right away.
It's not a bother.
I live alone.
You said.
Feeble.
You want something for the road?
I got water and water.
Deal.
A Pellegrino would be great.
What's so funny? I say it wrong?
I'm tired.
I'm just tired.
Listen...
...there's one thing...
...I forgot to tell you.
I live alone.
Lock up behind me.
- How's that? - Real good.
Now get some sleep.
Thank you.
I betrayed you twice, Luther. You should know that.
You're not the first.
Why'd you come?
I can't have my daughter thinking I was a murderer.
No, I mean this afternoon. Why'd you come?
You suspected something or you wouldn't have prepared.
My daughter wanted to see me.
The robbery was going fine until they came in.
They were drunk.
I was hidden in the vault.
And the sex had started getting rough...
...and he started beating her...
...started strangling her. I thought he'd kill her.
Then she somehow got the upper hand.
She was gonna stab him with a letter opener and two guys shot her.
The same two guys who tried for you today.
Possibly.
Unless Walter Sullivan was taking a shot.
It's a pretty powerful enemy.
That's very good going.
Not as powerful as the President of the United States.
That's right.
Alan Richmond, he was the drunk.
The two guys were Secret Service.
Chief of Staff Russell handled the cover-up.
Well, then you go to the police.
That's what innocent people do. They go to the police.
Sure.
That young man who was here...
...he'd believe me over the President, right?
Why should I believe you?
Because I swear to you, Kate.
I swear to you on Mattie's grave.
That's right.
Your mother's grave. I'd kill myself before I'd lie about that.
Oh, Jesus, Luther.
- Yeah. I know. - They'll kill you.
- I know. - Can you run?
I was all set to. I was at the airport ready to go.
Then there was that press conference.
And there was Richmond using old man Sullivan.
You know, I might not have been able to...
...save Christy Sullivan...
...but I didn't even try.
What are you gonna do?
I'll think of something.
I watched you argue a case last year.
You won it.
Thank God you got your mother's brains.
Dangerous outside.
It always is.
Excuse me.
Could you give this to Gloria Russell?
- Anything for me to sign? - No, you have an honest face.
Oh, my God.
You're a vision tonight.
Thank you, Mr. President.
And thank you, Mr. President.
For...? Come again.
You know.
You sent it to me this afternoon.
Of course.
Would you excuse me, all?
I'm overcome with a desire to dance with my chief of staff.
Look after this for me, would you?
What is this nonsense?
I'm hoping there's an explanation.
Your gift, Alan. I was...
...overwhelmed.
And, you know, your note was so gratifying.
I sent a note?
Yes, yes.
You think I don't know your writing?
I assumed you wanted me to wear it tonight.
- Gloria, it's lovely. - Yes.
And you know what else?
What, Alan?
Christy wore it the night she was killed.
Know what this means?
No.
Whitney's been heard from.
It's not precisely the first time.
You been keeping things from me?
Well, it's just that you have so much on your plate.
We wanted to spare you.
He sent me a Polaroid...
...of the letter opener yesterday.
I have to give this some thought.
Come to my office in the morning.
This'll make an interesting chapter in my memoirs.
Do we know who the forger is?
I talked to Seth Frank. Apparently, Whitney learned how in prison.
A gifted man.
How close are we to him?
We're working around the clock.
Well, that's good to know.
He'll make a mistake.
Well, that's good to know too.
There is...
...one other thing...
...that we need to take care of.
He has a daughter, doesn't he?
You sure you wanna do that?
Sir?
She's a young prosecutor. Prosecutors ask questions.
Maybe she knows what he knows.
Let's get cracking, boys.
Show that you love your country.
How's Kate doing?
Where are you?
I won't hang around for you to trace the call.
Just answer the question.
She couldn't be in better hands.
Secret Service is taking over surveillance.
Hello?
It's entered in the chart.
We upped her from 250 to 500 milligrams.
Nurse, I need you right away, please.
He's having a seizure.
Dr. Kevorkian, I presume.
My guess is that this is right in your carotid artery about now.
You're gonna get a little woozy.
But if I give you the rest...
...it'll fry your brain down to the size of a peanut.
Drop that.
Luther...
...he was my President.
Right or wrong.
Well, he made a mistake.
You made a mistake.
When you went after my girl, that was entirely unacceptable.
Mercy.
I'm fresh out.
Daddy?
Go to sleep, darling.
Oh, Jesus!
Just one question.
Did Walter Sullivan say why Christy didn't go to Barbados?
Just that she changed her mind.
You know who did it, don't you?
So will you. Check your phones.
Good night, Mr. Sullivan.
You're taking a shortcut, Tommy?
I'm your substitute driver tonight.
Don't worry about Tommy. He's fine.
Very unusual.
What do I call you?
Luther, sir.
And are you familiar with how to get to my townhouse, Luther?
Oh, yes, sir.
I know where all your houses are.
I'm the man who robbed you.
You're the man who tried to kill me.
I'm sorry I missed.
I believe in the Old Testament, sir.
There's nothing wrong with an eye for an eye...
...when a terrible deed is done.
A deed such as yours.
You'd like to believe that.
That'd be simple for you to believe that.
What do I have to gain by being here?
I have no idea.
You going to rob me again?
I don't need your money, Mr. Sullivan.
Did you check your vault lately?
I put everything back.
I'm afraid we're a little late for an attempt at leniency.
A lot of crap's coming down tonight, sir.
You wanna be a player or not?
You wanna know what happened or don't you?
Because I was there.
I want to know.
You think you can stand hearing about it?
How he beat her, tried to strangle her?
You really wanna know?
I could walk through fire.
I was in the vault when they came in.
They were drunk.
He knocked her around.
She fought back.
He got really rough.
She tried to defend herself.
Well, he started screaming...
...sniveling simp he is.
Who else was in my house?
Secret Service. They're the ones who shot her.
Nonsense.
Gloria Russell handled the cover-up.
Stop this!
You wanna know who it was?
It was you.
Come on, Mr. Sullivan. We're too old to bullshit each other.
Who was it, then?
You know.
Don't shake your head.
When you're alone and rage takes over and you want revenge...
...what face do you put with your enemy?
Stop the car!
We're going straight ahead.
This is too terrible.
Yes, it is.
I know about Alan's reputation as a philanderer...
...but he'd never dream of betraying me.
I gave him the Presidency.
Remember that press conference?
Where he put his arm around you and said...
...if Christy hadn't been sick, she'd have been in Barbados with you?
How the hell did he know she was sick?
You didn't tell anyone.
It's because she told him that night.
I was right there watching.
That's not real proof.
Well, maybe this is, then.
You could've stolen this.
I did steal it.
But that's not my blood on there and that's not my prints.
Mr. Sullivan.
I did love her, you know.
Jeez, Burton.
Is he working late? I don't have an appointment but I want to see him.
You don't need an appointment.
Let's go, Miss Russell.
Walter.
Come in.
We interrupt with a breaking story...
... that's shocking the nation and the world.
Information just came from the White House about a tragedy within the hour.
We go now to our correspondent.
Diane, what can you tell us?
Sources tell us Walter Sullivan had seen President Richmond tonight.
That was for an unscheduled private meeting.
You're still here.
I'm still here.
- I would not be President.
If Christine had not taken ill...
... she would be with you in Barbados even now.
Walter, you've been like a father to me.
This is the President's most recent news conference...
... where he clearly outlined...
... his loyalty to philanthropist and friend, Sullivan.
The President vowed to find Sullivan 's wife's killer.
Sullivan had a meeting with the President. Unknown what they discussed.
Now to the White House for a live interview.
Have you no idea why the President would take his own life?
I know he's been feeling the pressure of office, more than ever, lately.
He talked about it a great deal.
But why would he stab himself?
That's a question that will haunt me forever.
Of course I tried to stop him.
Alan...
... was like a son to me.
Was that Seth?
I think he'd like to come over for supper when you get well.
You don't have to fuss.
I know.
Am I gonna be all right?
Yeah.
We're gonna be just fine.
