(EVERYTHING I OWN PLAYlNG)
VlC: Hey, Sammy.
You sheltered me from harm
Look what I got you, pal.
I got you a new spaceship. Mmm?
SAMMY: But I like my spaceship, Daddy.
Kept me warm
-Yeah, but you can have this one, too. -I like mine.
His birthday is not till Saturday.
You gave my life to me
You're not gonna have to work, are you?
Rose, I wouldn't miss Sammy's birthday party for the world.
Set me free
I promise.
The finest years I ever knew
Maybe one day you can go to the moon.
-Would you like that? -But only in my spaceship.
Only in your spaceship.
What's the matter, Tyler?
Ransom drop stakeouts make you sleepy?
Kidnappings are boring?
Actually, I was hoping to wake up
to discover the institution of the proper AMBER Alert system.
You're off your snots, Tyler.
(SlGHS)
RAY: Well, too bad the park ain't open.
We could pinch this kidnapper, hand Mr. Kreshpane his baby
and go for funnel cakes and lap dances with the bearded lady.
That broad still working?
Something tells me Wall Street wasn't beckoning.
(GENE SCOFFS)
Well, I just hope Baby Andrew is safe, wherever he is.
Baby Andrew is gonna be dead Baby Andrew if we get made.
There's Daddy Kreshpane now.
Got a bogey at one o'clock.
(STARTS CAR)
(TlRES SCREECHlNG)
(MAN GRUNTlNG)
(BOTH GRUNTlNG)
(GUNS COCKlNG)
Where's my son? Where's my boy? Where's Andrew?
-You're under arrest for kidnapping. -MAN: Kidnapping?
Sam, why do you look so stricken?
-It's about my father. -What about him?
He walked out on me and my mother this year. 1 973.
He just disappeared from our lives. We never heard from him again.
-Where did he go? -I don't know.
Well, why did he go?
I've no idea.
Well, do you know anything, Sam?
He left town in the middle of my fourth birthday party.
Before I even blew out the candles.
Well, he should be arrested for that alone.
It's my birthday this Saturday. The exact date he vanished in 1 973.
-Wait. So tomorrow's your birthday? -Yeah.
How old are you gonna be?
-I'm serious. -So am l.
-Sam, you're not gonna be four. -Am, too.
Now you're acting like a 4-year-old.
Annie, after the car hit me and I arrived here in 1 973,
I saw an image, a woman, my mother,
wearing a red dress, being chased through the woods.
Now, I can't explain it, but I keep seeing it,
you know, over and over again.
(SlGHS) Sam, maybe we should have a little birthday party for you.
You know, I can make a cake.
(SHRUGS) Well, I can't on Saturday
because I have to go to Lee's cousin's wedding, but...
Well, maybe on Monday.
You're missing the point. Maybe this is the reason why I'm here.
T o figure out what happened to my family.
And to prevent my father from leaving.
Are you saying that that filthy kidnapper is your father?
That's exactly what I'm saying.
And I would give anything I own
Just to have you back again
Happy birthday to me.
My name is Sam Tyler.
I was in an accident and I woke up in 1 973.
I don 't know how or why I'm here,
but whatever's happened, it's like I've landed on a different planet.
Now, maybe if I can work out the reason, I can get home.
I swear to you, I had no idea th is was about a kidnapping.
I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
So says every criminal I've ever arrested.
I know nothing about a baby.
Yeah, right. And I got zero interest in jacking up Brigitte Bardot.
So, you dared to dream, seek greener pastures,
and when you read about the Kreshpanes' windfall,
you planned your score.
I'm sorry, but I can't help you out there.
(GRUNTS)
Whoops!
Get off your rusty dusty and tell us where that baby is.
You okay?
Yeah.
You know, I got a boy at home, his name is Sam.
Yeah, I got a French bulldog at home named Ollie,
he drools like your grandfather.
-Where we going with all the noise? -It's just coincidence, that's all.
I have two Sam Tylers in my life.
VlC: I think I wanna talk to my lawyer now.
And I think they ruined a perfect ass when they put teeth in your head.
Look, you're a father and a parent, and you love your son a lot, right?
Yeah. Yeah, I love my son very much. So what?
So how does a guy like that
end up at Coney lsland in the early dawn collecting a ransom?
How does he get there?
Look, it was supposed to be a simple collection from a bookmaker.
-At least that's what I was told. -What? What do you mean?
I owe their people money. They're threatening me and my family.
Whose people?
The Pignato Brothers.
Who the hell are the Pignato Brothers?
LEE: The Pignato Brothers are an up-and-coming crew
of the Lower East Side's criminal underworld.
They were penny-ante hoodlums until last year.
GENE: Freddy Venetti.
LEE: Freddy Venetti. SAM: Who?
RAY: Freddy Venetti was a smalltime bookie
we found in a dumpster on Avenue C.
Wait, he's missing eyes, ears and a nose.
And hands and tongue. You can't see it in that photo.
Word on the street, the Pignatos wanted it known if you cross them,
you have violated one of their five senses.
They retaliate symbolically.
Tin snips.
(POURlNG)
(LAUGHlNG)
-They use tin snips. -Turned Freddy into Potato Head.
Do we know if the Kreshpanes had any business associations
with the Pignatos?
LEE: Mr. Kreshpane said there were none.
That's exactly why we need to lean harder on Vic Tyler.
This cretin's every shade of shady.
He keeps jerking us around, we'll have a dead baby on our hands.
(KNOCKlNG)
GENE: Enter.
Mr. and Mrs. Kreshpane are here.
Boss? Maybe we should have Vic meet the Kreshpanes face to face.
What for?
Well, Vic's got his own family.
If he's got even an ounce of humanity, he'll be more forthcoming
in the presence of the devastated parents.
What do you say, boss?
-Get Vic Tyler. -Okay.
But if this coffee klatch doesn't work, know what happens next?
-What? -I break out the tin snips.
(RAY SNlCKERS)
SAM: Mr. and Mrs. Kreshpane, I know this is extremely difficult for you.
The kidnappers threatened to do horrible things to Andrew
if we got the police involved.
We are working on this as fast as we can. Trust me.
Vic Tyler. These are Andrew Kreshpane's parents.
KRESHPANE: Where is our baby, Mr. Tyler? Where is he?
Please. We need him to come home.
(STAMMERlNG) I'm sorry. I have no idea. I can't help you.
All right, come here. Come here.
ANNlE: Detective Tyler will do everything he can...
What if your son were kidnapped?
Huh?
Can you imagine being separated from him?
Can you imagine the heartbreak it would cause you and your wife?
Look, I feel lousy about this, I really do,
but the Pignatos are accountable for that baby, not me.
But what if you take the fall?
What happens to your family? Who provides for them?
All right, look.
I expect a phone call this afternoon at 2:00
to arrange for the money exchange.
But that's all that I know.
The Pignatos don't know I got pinched.
Not yet.
You're doing the right thing here.
Anything just to put this behind me, you know?
This Saturday is my boy's birthday. I'm throwing a party for him in the park.
Ice-cream, cake and a cowboy that comes by
and makes the funny animals out of balloons.
I'd like to be there for that.
You will be.
So, what's the plan, Sam?
(HESlTANTLY) We'll wait for the call from the Pignatos,
and once they give you the location of the money drop,
-we'll take it from there. -This is our house.
Yes, it is.
(VlC SlGHS)
I keep meaning to get this fixed.
(DOOR OPENlNG)
Never will.
I sell cleaning supplies for a living. I'm on the road a lot.
Money's not great, but you plug away, make yourself a life.
I tried to lighten the load by making some bets, you know?
I made some bad bets. I couldn't pay them back.
And so they got me running these errands,
these low-level underlings.
I figured, no big shakes, right? But look at me now.
I got a cop in my living room like I'm some common criminal,
waiting for these freaking psychos to call me.
-(CLEARlNG THROAT) I'm sorry. -It's okay.
We're gonna figure this out.
My wife, she made me quit the cigarettes, you know.
So I do these puzzles, they help me during stressful times.
(VlC CHUCKLES)
But you still, once in a while, sneak one while she's at the grocery store, right?
I never said I was perfect, Sam.
You know, I got a real superstition about these things, right?
Once you get a puzzle that you can't solve,
the key is, it's always in the bottom right-hand corner.
And once you figure that out, it just unfolds.
That's your superstition? That's your method?
Well, that and I pray to the great God of Hendrix three times a day.
Not really sure which one's working for me, but I get by.
-Rose. Hey, babe. This is... -Detective. What are you doing here?
Oh, there's been a rash of neighborhood break-ins lately, Mrs. Tyler.
I'm just doing a routine canvass.
You two know each other?
Well, yeah, I used to pound a beat in this neighborhood, so...
-We met once. Briefly. -Oh, I see.
-Honey, Sammy is asking for you. -Hey. You want to meet the little guy?
-No, I'm good. -Okay.
It's Detective Skywalker, right?
Yes, but please call me Luke.
How much trouble is my husband in?
What makes you think he's in trouble?
No, like I said, there's been some break-ins and l...
I think we left niceties at the door that night at the club, Detective.
Please, I just want to know the truth.
All right.
I had to ask him some questions
about a couple of things, following police protocol.
Please. Don't worry.
If Vic is guilty of anything, it's working too hard,
missing time with his family.
(SlGHS) Heck, if that were a crime, he'd be on death row.
I understand your son has a big birthday coming up.
Let me guess. You bought him a Big Jim doll.
How could you possibly know that?
Well, you know, all the kids love them these days, right?
I mean, you got the bulging bicep, karate chop
and the test-of-strength belt, right? What's not to love? I mean...
(WHlSTLES SOFTLY)
That reminds me. I have to make sure that I have everything
to bake Sammy's cake for tomorrow.
-Would you like something to drink? -No, thanks, Mom... Mrs. Tyler.
Frazier brings up the ball. Passes to DeBusschere.
DeBusschere looks for Willis Reed, but Reed's being double-teamed,
so Dave finds Phil Jackson.
Jackson finds Sammy Tyler at the top of the key. Tyler shoots!
Nothing but net.
(lMlTATlNG CROWD CHEERlNG)
Hey, my kid's a big Knicks fan.
Sammy's in danger, isn't he? Rose also?
I mean, the Pignatos are surely gonna come after them.
Why wouldn't they? And by blowing the whistle on them,
you're making me sign my family's death warrant.
I'll do everything I can to protect them.
(SCOFFS)
-I promise. -Yeah.
You know, Sammy, he wants to be an astronaut. Or a cop.
Who doesn't, right?
-You got kids? -No. Maybe someday.
Yeah, well, take it from someone who knows,
there's no time like the present.
What...
What... What's he like, the boy?
You know, he's busy up in the head. All that make-believe.
T akes after his father.
When things are rough, you know,
I'm in some tide-water town trying to hawk my wares,
I can't make a sale, sleeping in the back of a car
'cause I'm trying to save money on a motel,
and I gotta hear one more guy say, "Sorry, not interested,"
you know what I do to make things all right?
I just... I tell myself, I say, "I'm Sam's father.
"l am Sam's father."
Then everything, every little thing,
it's okay, you know?
-I'm sorry, it's kind of... -No, no, it's...
-It's what? -It's... Well, it's...
It's a game to five and winner's out.
(REELING IN THE YEARS PLAYlNG)
Oh, yeah?
(SAM LAUGHS)
Your everlasting summer You can see it fading fast
So you grab a piece of something That you think is gonna last
Well, you wouldn 't even know a diamond
If you held it in your hand
The things you think are precious I can 't understand
Are you reelin ' in the years?
-Hey, h ig h five. -What?
-H ig h five. -Hey, how you doing?
High five, okay. Come on. My ball.
Have you had enough of mine?
VlC: Oh! Oh!
(SAM LAUGHlNG)
(TELEPHONE RlNGlNG)
No, no, baby. I got it, I got it.
(TELEPHONE RlNGlNG)
One of the perks of being lrish, no hair on the chest.
You okay? Yeah?
You sure you're not one of these guys who's a little bit light on his feet?
-What? No. -Yeah?
-No! -Because ever since I met you...
-No, no, no, no. -...you've been looking at me in a way
that makes me just a little bit nervous.
Yeah... No, that's part of my investigative technique.
-It's... I study a man to... -ls that so?
Is that what that is?
-Here, let me do this for you. -You do that.
So we'll be outside the place monitoring your wire.
(SlGHS)
As soon as we hear the money exchange go down,
we come blazing in and we'll start bracing them on the whereabouts
-of the Kreshpane baby. -Okay.
-(EXHALES) Jeez. -It's normal to be scared, Vic.
I'm not gonna let anything happen to you.
Yeah, well, you know, I only met the Pignatos one time.
Mostly I just dealt with the middlemen, you know?
-What are they like? -(LAUGHS) What are they like?
Well, when I was a kid growing up in Bensonhurst, right?
There was this one time we caught these rats.
These big suckers, long, pink tails like whips, greasy hindquarters.
And we kept them.
We kept them in a junked-out icebox in the basement.
After about a week of starving and all, they started to chew their way out.
Right through the metal.
I just happened to be there when they did, you know,
as their faces were poking out.
Their little jaws all bloody from the effort.
Never in my life had I seen such a maniacal rage, you know?
That is, until I met T ommy and Angelo Pignato.
And that was for a whole five seconds.
You know why they were pissed off, Sam?
Why?
Because the Mets lost.
(SCOFFS)
-Listen. If I die tonight... -I'm not gonna let that happen.
If it happens,
I want you to deliver the news to Rose and Sammy, okay?
Look, tomorrow, if everything you told us is true,
you'll be blowing out the candles at Sammy's fourth birthday, okay?
Yeah.
We're off to see the wizard.
SAM: These bills real?
GENE: The bills are real. That's not my worry.
My worry, is this guy for real?
(PEOPLE CHATTERlNG)
MAN: Thanks a lot. It's all right. HOOKER: Are you sure? You sure?
'Cause I got something for you.
MAN: Oh, yeah? HOOKER: Yeah, yeah.
Easy does it, old man.
Okay. He's in.
So No-Nuts said it's your birthday on Saturday.
-That's right. -You got any big plans?
I don't like birthdays, Chris.
VIC: Police? Not me. Not a chance.
VIC: No!
(GUNSHOTS)
SAM: Shots fired! Shots fired!
GENE: Listen to me. Who did this to you? Who shot you?
Here's a quarter, Sammy. Knock yourself out.
Remember, Sammy. If you can beat my high score,
I got a Root Beer Dum Dum waiting for you.
Thanks, Uncle Butchie.
Who shot you? Chris, check the apartments upstairs.
-Vic? -GENE: No one leaves this building!
Listen to me. Who shot you? Give me a name!
-Vic, you're in here? -Sam, down here.
-Oh, God. -I've been shot.
-Careful, careful. Please, careful. Ow! -SAM: Easy, easy, easy.
(VlC GRUNTlNG lN PAlN)
Let me see. Let me see.
SAM: You'll be okay.
-Where is the briefcase? -They took it.
I don't know how they know I squealed.
-Which way did they go? -I didn't see.
After they fired, they ran off and I just shut my eyes
'cause I thought that they were gonna come back and finish the job.
(VlC SCREAMS)
-What kind of fink are you, Tyler? -Hey! He's been shot!
Letting the Pignatos get away with the money before we could nab them?
He needs a doctor, not an interrogation!
We have to find them.
(SOFTLY) And the baby.
Just go, I'll be okay.
Stay put. I'm gonna call an ambulance.
-See anyone? -Nobody came out the back,
but there's a delivery door in the basement we didn't know about.
They might've went out that way.
(FLOOR CREAKlNG)
Chris, you all right?
(BABY CRYlNG)
(WHlSPERlNG SOOTHlNGLY)
It's Baby Andrew.
I heard him crying from all the way down the hall.
Poor little guy probably hasn't been fed all day.
(POLlCE OFFlCERS CHEERlNG)
(BABY CRYlNG)
Oh, don't be afraid of your Uncle Ray. He doesn't mean any harm.
(SHUSHlNG SOFTLY)
(OFFlCERS CHATTERlNG)
So the Lieut says the DA is gonna drop the charges.
I'm still embarrassed I got wrapped up in any of this in the first place.
We never would've found the baby if you hadn't risked everything to help us.
You did a good thing today. A really good thing.
(CHUCKLES) Okay.
(VlC LAUGHlNG)
I'm sure your son will be very proud of what his father did today.
Hey, I guess now you'll be able to go help him blow out his candles.
Won't you?
-Won't you, Vic? -(DlSTRACTEDLY) Huh?
(lNHALES)
Absolutely.
I wouldn't miss it.
Here he is.
(MRS. KRESHPANE CRYlNG)
MRS. KRESHPANE: What is it?
Where did you get your rocket?
CHRlS: That was with him when we found him.
VlC: Maybe one day you'll get to the moon, too, Sammy.
(WHOOSHlNG)
-KRESHPANE: That's not Andrew's. -We should voucher that.
-Where is he? -Detective, what...
-Where is Vic? -He left this morning.
Did he say where he was going?
Who knows where he goes when he goes? I don't.
-Do you? -No, I don't.
Detective, do you know what Vic is wrapped up in?
No. I'm not sure, no.
Yeah, well, you know what? I'm not surprised.
But I will say one thing. Since you showed up here yesterday,
Vic has been even more agitated than usual,
and I would like to know why that is.
(SAM EXHALES)
I want you to promise me something.
Please. Be careful.
There are some very bad men out there...
Who barge into strangers' homes whenever they damn well please.
Yeah, I think I'm looking right at one.
Contrary to what you might think, Detective, I don't always need saving.
I'm a big girl, and I can take care of myself and my boy.
I know you can. It's just...
You're wearing a red dress.
(SCOFFS SOFTLY)
My, Detective, what keen powers of observation you have there.
(STAMMERlNG)
Are you gonna wear that today at Sammy's birthday party in the park?
Here's a better question for you.
What business is it of yours what I wear to my son's birthday party?
(TELEPHONE RlNGlNG)
-Hello? -It's me.
Listen, I need your help. Please, Annie.
Vic's been lying to me, to all of us, this entire time.
He's involved somehow.
Can you keep an eye on Rose and little Sammy while I sort this out?
Sam, I promised Lee I would go to his cousin's wedding today.
Look, it's just for a few hours, okay?
(SlGHS) All right.
Thanks.
Have Central raise me on the radio if you need me.
Hey, Sam. Be careful.
I'm worried about you.
I'm not the one you should be worried about.
Talk to you later.
(DIAL TONE DRONING)
(BlLLlARD BALLS CLATTERlNG)
MAN 1 : Whoa! Look at that. MAN 2: I saw it last night.
MAN 1 : So how'd it go? MAN 2: Pretty good.
MAN 1 : Yeah?
Excuse me, sir.
SAMMY: Thanks, Uncle Butchie.
Hey, you spoil the kid, Butchie, you know that?
He's a kid worth spoiling. Go ahead, play the game.
-Uncle Butchie? -Only my friends call me that.
I'm a friend of Vic Tyler's. You know him?
Sure I do. He comes in here with his kid Sammy all the time,
but I doubt I'll be seeing him much now. Not after what happened last night.
First rule of the world, don't make the wrong men mad.
ANNIE: (ON RADIO) Sam, are you there?
Yeah, I'm here. Where are you?
I'm at Sammy's birthday party at Rowan Park. In the woods.
I'm on my way. Keep an eye on them till I get there.
You see Vic Tyler, do not approach him. Radio me immediately.
(CHlLDREN LAUGHlNG)
I can't let him get away.
Not again.

But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
And she 's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause she 's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools

It's the freakiest show

No, no. Listen to me. Annie, do not follow him. He's dangerous.
(STA TIC WARBLING)
Is there life on Mars?
Excuse me, sir. Have you seen my dad? I don't know where he is.
Go back to your mother.
I'm gonna go and find your father.

Yeah. I'm coming.
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Annie!
Look at those cavemen go

-You hurt? -(COUGHlNG) I'm fine.
I don't know if I can say the same for him.
(GROANlNG)
Go back to the party.
-Radio for backup. -Sam.
I need you to go back to the party, Annie.
Now.
Fine. But if you're not back in five minutes, I'm coming back in.
VlC: I know...
I know how this looks, Sam. I left the station
'cause I just didn't think that you could protect me and my family
from the Pignatos.
-You know, I just had to get the... -Save it.
I know the truth.
I know you were trying to flee.
I know you kidnapped that baby.
(LAUGHS) Come on, I wasn't gonna hurt him.
Just trying to get a little extra money
so that my family could live comfortably.
I mean, you got no idea what it's like
not being able to provide for your family.
Can't use them as an excuse anymore, Vic.
This was never about what your family needs.
You weren't on the road being a salesman.
You were expanding your criminal concerns.
You told my mother we were broke,
so she wouldn't hassle you about spending so much time away.
Your mother?
What you're about to do,
walking out on your family like this,
your son's gonna blame himself.
And it's gonna affect every meaningful relationship he forms
his entire life.
Let me tell you something, Sammy.
Everything that I do,
why I started all this in the first place,
came out of the need to take care of my family.
-No. -T o make sure they were safe.
-My wife. My boy. -No.
-Being a salesman, it just didn't cut it. -No.
That's a cop-out.
What do you know about it, huh?
(SOFTLY) Huh, Sam?
What do you really know?
It was my fourth birthday party here at Rowan Park.
And I'd just watched you dance with my mother.
And I was about to blow out the candles,
and I realized you weren't around.
So I followed you into the woods.
And I saw you beating a policewoman to death.
You strangled her.
And you kicked her,
and you kicked her.
And then you fled
and you never came back.
(SAM STlFLlNG SOB)
(WHlSPERlNG) But I blocked it out.
I blocked it out till I came here.
(VOlCE TREMBLlNG) Memory...
The memory was just too painful.
T ell me something, boy.
Did you have a good time at your fourth birthday party?
No.
I didn't become an astronaut, either.
Police? Not me. Not a chance.
(GUN FlRlNG)
(MAN GRUNTlNG)
(VlC SCREAMS)
There are no Pignato Brothers.
I could say yes, but that wouldn't be telling the truth.
What's the truth?
I am the Pignato Brothers.
(GUNS BElNG COCKED)
Hey, hey, you okay?
You're not gonna shoot me, Vic.
What makes you so sure?
Because that's not who you really are.
Yeah, maybe not.
But I'm not gonna let you arrest me. Right?
I can't have my boy knowing his father is in prison for doing terrible things.
I can't do that.
Right? I mean, I got to think of Sammy, right?

So, that woman you saw running through the woods,
-the one in the red dress... -What about her?
Thank you for saving my life.
You know, I thought this was the reason I was here,
to stop my dad from leaving,
but I think maybe it was to show me who he really was.
I mean, what other reason could there be?
You have no idea how much good you've brought to the 1 -2-5.
All the cases that you've worked on, they're the reason you're here.
You should know
I don't hate everything about this place.
You should rest.
I left you some puzzle books on the table.
