" I hope I didn't startled you." " No, you sound close." " Yeah, I'm here." "I'm here in D.C." " Well, that's great." " Now, Amanda." "Just listen to me, please." "I'm in trouble." "Now, you'll be getting calls, and I think you should tell them...." "Just tell them you don't know where I am, because you don't." " I think it's best that way." " Joe?" "WOMAN:" "Joe, your cab's here." "Joe, if you're in trouble, please tell me, let me help." "JOE:" "No, it's too dangerous." "I'm sorry, Amanda." "I wish I knew what else to do."

"MAN [OVER PHONE]:" "That's him." "They want him back before the funeral or all hell's gonna break loose." "They closed the airport but they think he's already back in the States." " How long have we got to find him?" "MAN:" "I'd guess 48 hours." "The Estoccian government is bracing for revolution." "They're sending one of their cops to supervise." "How good is their case?" "His prints are on the gun that killed the guard." "There are rumors about theft engineered by the dead man and Joe King." "Well, give us reports for as long as you can." " Get out when the roof starts falling in." " Yes, sir." "If they think an American killed their prime minister they'll want his head on a platter." "What is it, Scarecrow?" "I...." "I thought the name sounded familiar." "I checked with the GSA central registry." "Joe King is Amanda's ex-husband." "I'll be damned." "I want this case, Billy." "You got it." "FRANCINE:" "This is just too bizarre to be made up." "Amanda's ex is an international killer?" "International suspect, Francine." "No playing favorites on this one, Scarecrow."

"You know, you and I, uh...." "We met once about five years ago right after we stole Joe from EPA." " Oh, is that right?" " Yeah." "I thought he might contact you." "I am kind of surprised that he hasn't." "Mr. Prescott, would you mind telling me what this is all about?" "Joe's in a little trouble, Mrs. King." "The night before last, there was an incident." "Civil disturbance in the country he's currently posted to." "Estoccia?" "Yes, I know." "He writes." "Uh...." "What sort of an incident?" "I was hoping he'd get in touch with you and you'd persuade him to come back so I could ask him that question." "No, I'm afraid he hasn't." "Quite frankly, I'm a little bit confused." "Mr. Prescott, Joe's a lawyer." "DOTTY:" "Hi, guys." "You hungry?" "PHILIP:" "Starving." "DOTTY:" "There's hot apple pie if you want it." "It's on the table." "JAMIE:" "Great, thanks, Grandma."

" Okay." "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "Amanda, come in." "Thank you, sir." " You heard about your ex-husband?" " Yes, sir." "From a Mr. Prescott at E.A.O." "Sir, you know, it's absolutely ridiculous." "Joe couldn't kill anybody." "Well, Estoccia is a very dangerous place." " We don't know for sure" " Makes no difference." "It's not his habit to pick up and disappear, is it?" "No, sir." "Well, we've thrown out all the nets for him along with the CIA, FBI, Security Task Force." "We'll do everything we can to get the truth." "Yes, sir." "Does Lee know?"

"[BOTH CHUCKLE]" "Ahem, Mrs. Marston, I'd like to introduce Asam Ali Shamba." "Inspector general of the Royal Estoccian Police Force." "He's gonna be with us for a few days, special assignment."

"Oh, inspector, agency's downstairs." "SHAMBA:" "Thank you." "MARSTON:" "Uh, Mr. Stetson." " Yes?" "This is my office, not your closet." "Your luggage, please." " Oh, I'm sorry." "Heh." " Yeah." " I'm sorry about that." "Unh." " That's all right." " I don't do this normally." " Thank you." "[GRUNTING]" "Oops!" " Unh." "SHAMBA:" "Ooh." "Hold it, ace." "That's not our stuff." "Don't be dumping that on us." "Right this way, inspector." "Leatherneck here will fix you up with everything you're going to need to chase the bad guys in America." " Ha, ha." "Chewing gum." " Five flavors." "One makes you see double and think backwards." "Yeah, well, Leatherneck, be sure to, uh, include everything, huh?" "Gotcha, the whole works." "Lee, what about the zebras?" "Lee?" "Lee?" "Well, inspector, let's just get you westernized." "Let's see here." "Don't mess with that." "Excuse me." "See what we got here." "All right." "Here we go." "Here's 1000 bucks, used American." "Um, credit cards, Orioles cap, restaurant tips book of American slang, and chewing gum." "Let's see." "Step right over here and I'll get your picture for your ID card." "[SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]" "Sorry, a superstition." "Heh, oh, yeah, that old deal about the camera stealing your soul, right?" "Yes." "But just because it's a superstition doesn't mean it isn't true." "Right." "Wanna step in there for me, please?" "Take your hat off, please." "There you go, thank you." "Amanda's waiting for you upstairs in the Q-Bureau." " What does she know?" " Nothing more than we do." " How's our guest from Estoccia?" " Ah, a little too good to be true." "Meaning?" "Meaning, he'd like us to think he'd rather be at Disneyland." "I'm going under the assumption that he's a lot shiftier than he looks." " See you later." " Yeah." "LEE:" "Hmm." "AMANDA:" "Hmm?" " Oh, nothing." " No, no, really, what?" "Uh, just work on that list, Amanda, and be specific." "You know, uh, doctors, cleaners, old apartments..." " ...as far back as you can remember." " Yeah, I'm getting them." "I'm comparing your ES-12s." "His account of the divorce isn't exactly the same as yours." " Let me see." " Here, this is yours." "No, I don't want to see mine." "Let me see his." " All right." " Thank you." "AMANDA:" "Huh!" " What?" " Nothing." "[CHUCKLES]" " Oh, heh." " What?" "Well, just some of this stuff is a little misleading." "It's the legal talk." "It says I'm resistant to change." "That can't be me." "I was never a stubborn person." "I'm just not a stubborn person." "You sure know how to get what you want." "I'm not stubborn." "Am I?" " Ha, ha." " All right, I'm a little bit stubborn." "Oh, look we just didn't agree on everything." " Care to elaborate on that?" " No." "I really don't." " Amanda." " Yeah?" "For the first time since we met, you're my case." "Now, I need to know the truth, even if it's tough." "Uh...." "Here's your list." "Okay." "Joe and I were married in, uh, '72." "Joe started law school in 1973, and I had Philip in 1973." "And then Joe graduated in '75 and Jamie came" "I can read, Amanda." "Tell me what isn't in the file, okay?" " What went wrong?" " With my marriage?" "Mm-mm." " Amanda." " No, really, I mean, why?" "I don't know." "Uh, call it criminal psychology or something like that." "Look, I am trying to put the pieces together here." "Joe is wanted for murder." "Everything you've told me about the guy leads me to believe that he's just a happy-go-lucky, mild-mannered lawyer." "He is a great guy." "He really is." "And I feel a little uncomfortable in this situation." "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "SHAMBA:" "Hello." " Oh, no." " Saved by the bell." " We don't know each other." "Oh." "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "Ah, inspector, come on in." "Inspector Asam Ali Shamba, this is Amanda King." "She's the ex-wife of the man we're after." "She's been very cooperative and, uh she's also given us a couple of good leads." " Hello." " Hello." "Hi." " Good hat." " Thank you." "DARRELL:" "Mr. Foster, we didn't expect Joe King to get this far." "You may have to offer to speak with him." "It may be the only way to get him to come back in." "Sir?" "Sir?" "He does trust you and he did call from Estoccia when he suspected." "Luckily for us." "But, now, we don't know what kind of proof he got out." "If I offer to speak with him, we're connected." "It'll be impossible-- Well, at least difficult, to kill him." "You know, he" "He wasn't meant to get out of Estoccia in the first place." "At least this manhunt works in our favor." "Attention is focused on the murder, not us." "You know, I think I'm right about staying out of the office." "If he comes there, you can deal with him." "[CHUCKLES]" "[SIGHS]" "Suppose he decides to come out here?" "Oh, I doubt he'll find it." "My address isn't public." "But if so we can claim that he attacked me." "Your friend did a very nice job over there." "How did he manage the fingerprints on the gun?" "Used an inside man." "Switched a handgrip from a gun Joe King used..." " ...and put it on the murder weapon." " Fast thinking." " Maybe he can help us here." " No." "No contact while he's over here." "As well." "Well, let's talk about contingencies." "If King is arrested before we get him, we'll need leverage." "Well, there's, uh, his family." "I agree." "That's where he's vulnerable." "Can we get to them?" "Well, his ex-wife works for a government production house." "Uh, International Federal Film." "I'm having it checked out." "And, uh, her two sons go to school." "His two sons." "Let's be ready to move decisively." "Best thing would be to kill him but we may have to get more elaborate." "No, the first apartment was on 17th and J, and then before that Joe lived in a room in a big old, uh, rooming house near the university and before that he lived with his parents in Chevy Chase on Ellington." "He went to North High." "Lee, you know, I can go on forever." "Yeah, I know." "I doubt we'll need before college." "It's unlikely he went back 15 years for help." " Right?" " Yeah." "It'd be a lot easier if he lived in the U.S., though." "But he's got a bank account here, a tax man, a broker and a secretary that shuffles his mail at E.A.O." "In Estoccia, a running man only run two ways away from something, or toward something." "He's not running away." "He came straight to D.C." "He wants something here." "Perhaps, uh, at the Emergency Aid Organization or maybe he's looking for his superior, Byron Foster." "[SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]" " Well, I just came from the FBI." "LEE:" "Hmm." "They drew a complete blank on hotels and motels in D.C. and three counties." "Likewise for hospitals, jails, rescue missions..." " ...flop houses, and morgues." " Good." "That's thorough." "Better hit the road." "[SPEAKING IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]" " Amanda." " Yeah?" "I want you to call me on this when you're ready to catch up with us." "I'll get Shamba started." "And then you can buzz by your house." " Can't we lose him?" " Well, it's not that simple." "I don't want him running around out there by himself." "I don't want him finding Joe before we do." " Is this a regular phone?" " Yeah." " Does it have an area code?" " Yeah" " No, no area code." "[SCHOOL BELL RINGS]" " Mr. Pryor?" " Present." "I'm Allma Dennis, principal here." "Can I help you?" "Yeah, Mrs. Dennis." "I'm a private investigator." "Uh, Amanda King, she has got a couple of boys here." " James and Philip." "Is that right?" " Yes." "Uh-huh." "Let me ask you something." "Does the father, uh, he ever come around the school?" "He's mostly abroad, I understand." "Why?" "Well, it just wouldn't be a good idea for him to be bothering the kids." " There has been a little trouble." " Since when?" "Amanda is active in our PTA." "I know her." "It's always been amicable with Joe." "Hey, things change, you know what I mean?" "I want you to do me a favor." "If you see him around I want you to give me a call right away." "Mrs. King's a little worried." "If her ex, uh, sees the kids, he, uh, may want to take them." " Follow me?" " Sure." "Keep in touch, huh?" "DOTTY:" "In his letter from the 3rd he says:" ""We're doubling the distribution of the food south." "I'll have to clear away the legal deadwood." "Three months, easy."" "This is it." "All the letters from '82 and the rest from '83." " What am I looking for?" " I don't know." "Anything out of the ordinary." "Anything that he doesn't usually write about." "Anything that's not the amount of rainfall or how big the lizards are." "Maybe he had a fight with somebody." "I don't know." "You probably better keep the boys on a tight rein." "And if he calls, try to find out where he is, or at least get a number." "Amanda, you'd be much more persuasive." " Tell him call me at I.F.F." " Oh, you and that blasted film company." "Here is the father of your children in trouble and all you think about is work." "I'm gonna be looking for him." "They'll know where to reach me at I.F.F." "Everything's gonna be okay." "Don't worry." "Sure." "I'd certainly like to know where you get your information." "DOTTY:" "Amanda, Vice-Principal Dennis is" " Amanda?" "Amanda, phone!" "Oh!" "I'm sorry, Mrs. Dennis, you just missed her." "DENNIS:" "A detective was at the school." " Detective?" " There might be a problem with Joe." " Yes, well, it is true." " Yes, the police are looking for Joe." " It's terrible." " I know, it's just awful, and, well" " We'll keep our eyes open." "Thank you for being careful and I'll tell her." " Okay, goodbye." " Hmm." "Quite a bit of shooting." "Beside the prime minister a guard was also killed at government house." "And word of the deaths started some local panic in T'Bai which spread into a night of looting and fires." " Yes, but no one saw Joe." " Pull the trigger, no." "But someone saw him running away." "Now, it is enough." "If not for justice, then vengeance." "It's hard living in Estoccia now." "The food is short, the land is parched like a vengeance." "The people have a few good things, but they love their prime minister." "And they want their own vengeance for him." "This is where Joe lived when he was in law school." "Looks like we turned off Memory Lane onto Fraternity Row." "No, this is Mrs. McDonald's." "We called her "McDragon."" "She rents rooms to law students." "Joe lived right up there." "McDONALD:" "Decker, phone call for you." "That's" " Mrs. McDonald!" " Hello." "McDONALD:" "Hello." " You probably don't remember me." " I sure do." "Amanda." "Yes, that's right." "What's going on?" "Is there some off-year reunion?" "Your old boyfriend was here last night." "Did you two ever tie the knot?" "Uh...." " Oh, heh, come on in." " Thank you." "[SHAMBA SPEAKS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE]" "Joe said he was in town for a seminar and there was a mix-up in housing." "I had the room so...." "Of course, he's a little older than most of the kids, but then, who isn't?" "AMANDA:" "Well...." " Are you sure it was Mr. King?" "Yes." "He slept right there last night." "Excuse me." "What are you looking for, some kind of an aura?" "It's not out of the question." "Mrs. McDonald, did Joe say where he was going?" "No, but he was gone when I got up." " What is this?" " Uh, it's just traveler's checks." "Empty." "AMANDA:" "Um, I'm gonna give you my phone number and if you don't mind if he comes back by or he calls or anything..." " ...could you give me a call?" " Sure, but why don't you stick around?" "The kids will be drifting in about 4." " Could be a couple of laughs." "LEE:" "Uh, no, I'm sorry." " Not today." "McDONALD:" "It is your loss." " I could tell you stories about" " Mrs. McDonald, heh." "It was good to see you." "Please don't get me in trouble." " Okay." " Okay." " Bye." " Bye-bye." "LEE:" "Yeah." " Well...." "Well, uh, we've gotta be going too." "I think someone should stay here and keep this place under surveillance." " Oh, that's a good idea." " Yeah." "See you later." "Listen, I don't think Joe is gonna go back there." "So Shamba can sit on the house for all I care." " We're gonna follow this lead." " I thought you said that wasn't a lead." "It will be in a minute." "I need something to raise the impression of the check he wrote." " A pencil?" " That'll work." " There you go." " Okay." " Look at that." " Yeah." "LEE:" ""Dooley's."" " You know it?" " Yeah." "[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING AND CROWD CHATTERING]" " Ella, Basie, Goodman." "The Troggs." " Ha, ha." "Great, isn't it?" "I don't think they've changed a record on there since Joe and I used to come here." " You came in here a lot, didn't you?" " Yeah." "We came in almost every night." "Yup, we didn't have much money, but that thing would take a nickel and play a song." "We could always play that one." "Let's hope he comes in here one more time." "Yeah." " You know, Amanda, uh...." " Yeah?" "You never did finish telling me why you got divorced." "You really want to know, huh?" "Pretty nosy, aren't you?" " Heh." " Okay." "Well, it's no big secret." "Um...." "Well, when Joe got out of law school he was interested in the Emergency Aid Organization and it meant constant travel." "I just, uh...." "I didn't think that would be good for the boys." "They were too little, you know?" "Six months here, six months there." "I really thought it would be better if we were all settled." " You wanted to be a housewife." " Well, I wanted a home." "I wanted for all of us to have a home." "But, uh, Joe felt that he really had something to give so he went ahead and took the job and I stayed in Arlington, and...." "I guess we were really sort of separated for a couple years." "And then we finally admitted that it just wasn't gonna work." " So life's turned out okay, huh?" " Yeah, but okay..." " ...isn't good enough for you." " Yeah." "I want you to get his attention while I come around his blind side." " No, no, no." " Amanda." "He doesn't know you." "Let me talk to him first." "He's bound to be nervous." "Um, you watch and I'll give you a signal, all right?" "Come on, don't scare him off." " Hello." " Inspector, what are you doing here?" "Police work." "One of the students at the house said that they saw Joe here last night." " So, uh, we'll wait here until he comes." " Mm." " And why are you here?" " I'm thirsty." "Look, why don't you wait for me at the bar?" "I'll be right back." " And have yourself a beer." " Yeah." "LEE:" "Hey, Dooley." "Listen, my friend over there wants to pick up the tab." "In fact, he wants to buy a round for the whole bar." "What a guy!" "[ALL CHEERING]" "AMANDA:" "Joe." " Oh, Amanda." "Oh, I've been so worried about you." " Everybody is worried about you." " Everybody?" "Well, yeah." "Me and Mother, and Mr. Prescott at E.A.O." " You look kind of tired." " Yeah." "Would you like to come back to the house?" "I can't." "I daren't take that chance." "But we have to talk." "Not here." "Joe, wait a minute." "You've got to stop running." "It's not safe." "JOE:" "I can't." "Somebody needs a fall guy and I'm afraid it's me." "I told you it was way too dangerous..." " ...for you to try to see me." " Oh" "[GUN COCKS]" "[GUN FIRES AND AMANDA SCREAMS]" "He's moving." "[GUNFIRE]" "LEE:" "Hey, get out of here." " Amanda?" "Where--?" " Here." "Come on." "There'll be people crawling all over this place." " Let's go." " Could you get my purse?" " Thanks." " Come on." "[ON STEREO] Wait till the midnight hour" "That's when my love comes...." "LEE:" "The fact that somebody started shooting at you raises a number of new possibilities." "Care to speculate on who it is?" "Same people who killed the prime minister of Estoccia." " Employees of U.S. E.A.O." " Why?" "I caught them with their hands in the till, stealing millions in U.S. relief." "If they're doing it in Estoccia, why not everywhere?" " If I believe you" " Of course we believe you." "If I believe you, this all starts to make a little more sense." "Our shooter will probably fall back and think about it." "He's not going to crash a rooming house full of people." "You two stay inside." "There's an Inspector Shamba that I have to dispose of." " Shamba?" " Yeah." "Airmail special, just for you." "You be very careful of him." "I think he's in on it." "I'll take care of it." " See you two later." " Bye." "[ON STEREO] That's when my love begins to shine" "Okay." "[ON STEREO] You are the only girl I know" "Really love you so" "WOMAN:" "Hey." "How you doing?" "[ON STEREO] In the midnight hour" "Listen to what I'm telling you." "Mrs. King's friend is not a filmmaker." "No, he came out with guns blazing." "Face it, we're gonna have to take those kids and we're gonna have to take them now." "No, not until they come after us." "That's the way we're gonna get a hold on King." "If we take his kids, that's it." "We're connected." "All we can do is buy time." "But let's be ready." "If they do come after us, then we've got nothing to lose." "LEE:" "Unh." "Here we go." " I'll get the light." " Would you get the door, please?" "Got the door." "But I have something I have to tell you." "You leave me all alone, and after you go all I could do was keep ordering drinks over and over and over and over, until" " How big was the bar bill?" " Eight hundred and 43 greens." "[LEE WHISTLES]" "I'll get it back for you out of petty cash." "I am sorry that everything went to pot for you." " Um, why don't you sit down and relax?" " It can hardly matter, you know." "Today was not my day to be of value." " Well, tomorrow will be a better day." " Ha!" "Probably not." "My periods of uselessness can go on for weeks." "Mm." "Just jet lag." "Yeah." "Whoo!" "Here." "Let's call it a night, huh?" "Drink up." "That'll make you feel better." "Ah!" "[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING ON STEREO]" "AMANDA:" "Sounds just the same, doesn't it?" " Yeah." " Yeah." " Brings back memories." " Yeah." "Oh, boy." " I took the wrong way home this time." " Well, we'll fix it." " Yeah?" " Yeah, don't worry." " You saved our lives in the library." " James Bond movies." "Yeah." "[CHUCKLES]" " It's really a mess, huh?" " Yeah." " What happened, Joe?" " It was a fluke." "Nine hundred metric tons of wheat arrived in Estoccia." "Only it wasn't 900, it was 700." "I did a little investigating and I found out it wasn't the first time." "Somebody's been doctoring the paperwork." "I was on my way to see the prime minister when all hell broke loose." "Oh, Amanda, those people are starving and somebody's taking the food out of their mouths." " Somebody here." " Joe, where's your evidence?" "It's all right there, only I'm all dressed up and no place to go." "I'm a lawyer, a paper pusher." "I should have stayed out of it." "No." "You did what you thought was right." "That's who you are." "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" " Yeah?" " Company." " Or would you two rather be alone?" " Oh, no, come on in, Mr. Stetson, please." " Thanks, Mrs. McDonald." " Bye." "The inspector has two grains of zonomethol in him." "He should sleep well into the next century unless we wake him up." " Now, what's the plan?" " I was just explaining to Amanda." "The only chance I had to prove my case was to match my invoices against the prime minister's relief schedule." "Show the discrepancies." "Well, he's dead and the invoices are in Estoccia." "Right." "So, what I need now are the stateside invoices out of E.A.O." "Okay." "You know what you're looking for, right?" " Yeah." " Let's go." "This'll only take a couple of minutes." "[BEEPS]" "[BEEPS]" "Damn." "They purged the records." "Everything I needed to prove my case." "My only hope died with the prime minister." "What about Shamba?" "If he's in on it, he's not gonna say anything." "He will if we give him a bad enough nightmare." "Oh, well...." "Okay, Shamba." "Come on, you got 30 seconds to tell me what I want to know." "Come on." "He's drugged to the gills." "You're gonna have to knock him around a little." "Joe doesn't knock people around, Mr. Stetson." "Sweetheart, why don't you just shake him real hard?" "All right, Shamba." "Come on." "Come on." " Mr. Prime Minister." " Hello, Joe." "JOE:" "I can't believe it." "Heh, I thought you were dead." "Ha, ha." "The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated." "[BOTH LAUGHING]" " Here we are." " Here we go." "America is deceptively exhausting." "Yeah, it's probably all those time zones between you and a good night sleep." "[CHUCKLES]" "How about some coffee?" "It'll make you feel better." " Amanda." " Thank you." " Joe." " Thanks." "There you go, prime minister." "Ahem, ah" "Thank you very much." "Have you been able to figure out what happened?" "Well, yes." "See, I took a roundabout way to my office and I saw my police chief, Shamba, waiting for me with a gun." "He fired." "I fired." "He was dead." "Shamba's accomplice was trying to kill me and hit the guard instead." "Then he must have panicked and ran screaming into the streets..." " ...that you were dead." " Heh, I was not, of course." "But I could see that there was a plot against me." "And Joe here was my link to understanding." "And you thought it a good idea to stay dead?" "Why be killed twice?" "My friends in Estoccia, my trusted friends are seeing to it that my first death lasts as long as they are able." "But the truth is you're both still quite vulnerable." "You've been framed for those thefts, but you coming back to life is gonna make you look even more suspicious." "But we know the stealing has been going on inside the E.A.O." " We just don't have a name." "LEE:" "Yes, we do." "You shared your suspicions with one man, Joe, and look what happened." "Then it is Foster." "But how do we prove that?" "The same way you prove a snake's not dead." "You see if he wants to bite you." " What's so damn important?" " Hello, Mr. Foster." "I'm a federal agent." "And what's so damned important is the amount of freedom you enjoy for the next 10 or 20 years." "Thank you." "Serious allegations, Mr. Stetson." "A great deal of money." "Do you have a name to attach to this or is this strictly for my edification?" "Actually, I have two names." "Gentlemen." "You know Joe King and I believe, by the look on your face you recognize the prime minister of Estoccia." "Good day, Mr. Stetson." "Good day, Mr. Foster." "[PHONE RINGS]" "WOMAN:" "Arlington Heights Middle School." "Just a moment." "Mr. Pryor?" "Thank you." "Yes, sir?" "No, I don't see a problem with that at all." "Right, right." "Thank you very much."
