This is Mr. Chalmers. My wife, Mrs. Bennet.
My son, Paul. My son, Tony.
Tony, how are you?
Would you mind if I had just a moment alone with Sam?
No, of course not.
Must be difficult raising children in the world of today.
I presume Tony is a college student.
Yes, that's right.
I can well imagine the financial strain...
...of sending a boy to university on the salary of a captain.
There's no reason why a man with your potential...
...shouldn't move right up, given the right support.
My family is waiting for me, Mr. Chalmers.
Bullitt abducted my witness.
He removed him from the hospital.
As his superior officer, I've given him complete charge of the case.
If he's moving Ross around, it's for a reason.
So you mean that you would not order him to reveal where he's keeping Ross?
It's his case, Mr. Chalmers.
Captain, I'm serving you with a writ of habeas corpus...
...making you responsible for the delivery of Ross.
Duly observed...
...you have received it.
Now I need that witness to prove his very existence.
Excuse me, sir. Dad, Mom is waiting.
Would you excuse us for just another moment, Tony?
I don't choose to have people accuse me of false promises...
...for the sake of cheap sensationalism...
...or to be compromised by your lieutenant. Or castrated.
Wait for me. I won't be long.
According to my sources, the Organization, Chicago branch...
...caught Johnny Ross with his hands in the till.
They estimate he siphoned off...
...about two million bucks while operating their wire service.
The story is they tried to get rid of him. Friday night. Chicago.
Chicago?
He got away unharmed. They believe he's hiding here in town.
How old is this information, Eddy?
Four hours. They're looking for him all over town, Frank.
They've staked out the docks, the airport, to keep him from leaving the country.
Anyone else trying for a hit?
Haven't heard of any such likelihood.
What about his brother, Pete?
In the clear.
Okay, Eddy. Thanks.
Anything I can do for you?
There is something.
Remember Zash-Zhoe? They gave him three to five.
What is he in for?
Receiving stolen property.
I'll try.
Thanks, Frank.
- Here you go. - Take care, Lieutenant.
What the hell is going on here?
A high-speed pursuit!
Two men are killed. An officer in the hospital. A witness almost murdered.
I want to know what's happening. Let's hear it straight.
Here's the report.
Now, a man like Chalmers could be a great help to the Department.
He could speak for us where it counts.
He could fight for us in the legislature.
Now, you have got to turn over his witness.
Where's Ross?
Tell him! That's an order!
He's dead.
Dead?
He died last night.
After you moved him?
Before. I've got him downstairs under a John Doe.
You are sick.
Smuggling a dead man out of a hospital.
And now two men killed who may have had nothing to do with it.
The man I was chasing killed Ross.
How do you know? Did you see him?
Yes. He tried to nail me with a shotgun.
A Winchester pump.
The radio report said the two men were burned beyond recognition.
Now all he's got are two dead men. It would never hold up in court.
I've got one lead. I want to move on it.
"Miss Dorothy Simmons. Thunderbolt Hotel. San Mateo."
Ross called her person-to-person from a phone in Union Square...
...approximately nine hours before he was killed.
So he called his girlfriend. What does that prove?
This is Sunday. I'm going to hold that writ until we come to work Monday morning.
Frank?
Go on. Get out.
Need a car.
Sorry, Lieutenant, there are no cars left.
Ms. Simmons doesn't answer.
What's her room number?
I'm sorry, we're not allowed to give...
Front. Take this gentleman to Room 114, please.
Hello, Del?
Yeah. Yeah.
It's a strangulation.
I thought I knew you.
But I'm not so sure anymore.
Do you let anything reach you? I mean, really reach you?
Or are you so used to it by now that nothing really touches you?
You're living in a sewer, Frank.
Day after day.
That's where half of it is. And we can't walk away from it.
I know it's there, but I don't have to be reminded of the whole thing.
The ugliness around us!
With you, living with violence is a way of life, violence and death.
How can you be part of it without becoming more and more callous?
Your world is so far from the one I know.
What will happen to us in time?
Time starts now.
- What do you got? - Let's start with the cleaver.
One cleaver, approximately eight inches in length.
Ms. Simmons' luggage has just arrived from the airport.
Okay.
Where is it?
- Here you go. - One pair of gold shoes...
Where is it from?
San Mateo Thunderbolt Hotel.
- And who from? - Simmons.
And what do we have?
One yellow metal locket. Yellow metal watch.
Pearl necklace. Put a hold on these.
We got a man here.
Dearborn Travel Agency in Chicago. Rome.
Look at all this literature!
What do you make out of that? I thought she was alone.
She's got a guy, now.
New purse, still has a price tag in it.
Give me a bag, Tony.
Everything is new. They weren't even away.
Passport? No passport. No tickets.
Yeah, I can't find any tickets, either.
Bingo!
What've you got?
Great.
"Albert E. Renick."
Then who the hell is Simmons?
Look how much money he's got.
Look at this.
This guy is loaded!
Well, we've got a Renick.
Wonder who Renick is?
Look what I came up with!
"Dorothy Renick."
Okay. Drop it in.
We're getting warm. "A.R."
How does that grab you?
Give me a bag, Tony. Fingerprints on this stuff.
Let's wrap it up.
- Thanks, Tony. - Okay.
No tickets, no passport.
Call Immigration in Chicago. Have them wire Renick's passport applications.
- I'll get a fingerprint check on Ross, huh? - Okay.
There are multiple gunshot wounds on the left side of the face...
... the left side of the neck at about the left upper thorax.
These extend from the lateral extent of the left eye...
... and a portion of the left orbit has been lacerated...
... and aqueous humor protrudes from the laceration.
There have been deep lacerations in the immediate area.
And these have been approximated by fine surgical sutures.
There are multiple surgical incisions about the left side of the face.
There is considerable hemorrhage in these deep tissues...
...and a number of surgical sutures are present about this area.
There are entrances into the sinuses...
...and several pellets are found located within this area.
There are also multiple lacerations and multiple gunshot entrance wounds...
...about the left side of the neck.
And similar wounds are found on the left upper thorax.
Would you send up those prints right away?
There's a soft rubber catheter extending out through the lateral extent of the...
I understand that Captain Bennet told you, you had until Monday morning...
...to comply with my writ of habeas corpus.
However, I want a signed admission now...
...that Ross died while he was in your custody.
When I'm ready. Yes?
Your photographs are coming through.
I'll be right up. Thank you.
I demand that signed statement. Now.
Excuse me.
Is that the girl?
Yeah.
Ross.
"Albert Edward Renick."
"Used car salesman. Chicago."
Who is Renick?
He was the man who was shot in the Hotel Daniels.
You sent us to guard the wrong man, Mr. Chalmers.
Mrs. Dorothy Renick and Mr. Al Renick...
...have reservations on the seven o'clock flight to Rome.
Separate tickets. Not confirmed.
And I got this report from Chicago.
Renick has no record of arrests. He's clean, Frank.
Yes Ross took close to $2,000,000 from the Organization.
And he set Renick up to get the heat off of him.
Then he killed Renick's wife to shut her up.
San Francisco Homicide.
Do you have a Mr. Renick on the seven o'clock flight for Rome?
He confirmed his flight a half hour ago.
Did he check in yet?
Not here, but he could do that at the gate. Shall I call Security?
Call the gate. Have them recheck all passports.
- Which gate? - Seventy-three.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
Clipper Flight 110 is now ready for boarding.
We hope you have a pleasant flight and thank you for choosing Pan American.
No smoking, please, beyond this point.
Would you please have your passports available for inspection...
... as you pass through the departure gate?
Pardon me.
And you're with the tour, too, are you? There are other girls ahead of you.
Step right on through.
Passenger Service.
Can I help you, sir?
Do you have a Renick, an Al E. Renick, Flight 124 to London?
What?
Thank you. At the last minute, on a Rome ticket. Flight Control.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have just been instructed to return to the gate.
For your safety, please remain seated...
... until the aircraft has come to a complete stop.
We anticipate only a short delay.
However, all passengers are requested to disembark...
... and remain in the departure lounge. Thank you.
He's still my witness.
I'll be delighted to let you have him after he testifies tomorrow.
The Organization.
Several murders.
Could do us both a great deal of good.
Look, Chalmers, let's understand each other. I don't like you.
Come on now, don't be naive, Lieutenant.
We both know how careers are made.
Integrity is something you sell to the public.
You sell whatever you want, but don't sell it here tonight.
Frank, we must all compromise.
Bullshit!
Get the hell out of here. Now!
How long will we be delayed?
Just about 45 minutes.
Won't be long.
Get me the security guard!
Ticket, please.
All right. Get back. Get back.
Wonder who he was? What he did?
I heard the shot all the way down the hall.
He's a cop. That's what he is.
Let's get back. Let's get back. Let's keep the area clear.
Now, ladies, you don't want to see this now.
