"Gerard!" "Get down!" "Gerard, get down!" "Gerard, come on." "Kimble." "There's a killer out there." "He's trying to kill you." "Starring David Janssen as Dr. Richard Kimble." "An innocent victim of blind justice, falsely convicted for the murder of his wife, reprieved by fate when a train wreck freed him en route to the death house." "Freed him to hide in lonely desperation, to change his identity, to toil at man y jobs." "Freed him to search for a one-armed man he saw leave the scene of the crime." "Freed him to run before the relentless pursuit of the police lieutenant obsessed with his capture." "James Daly," "Elizabeth Allen," "David Sheinen" "Also starring Barry Morse as Lieutenant Philip Gerard." "Well, now, lieutenant," "I'm 90 percent certain it was Kimble, or else I wouldn't have called you." "You saw him in a station wagon but you didn't get the license number?" "Well, you see, it happened too fast." "I was off duty, having lunch at a lunch counter, when I saw this station wagon pull up to a stop sign." "The driver's face rang a bell, but before I had time to connect him to your make sheet, he'd pulled away." "He could've gone in any direction." "Sure the wagon had local plates, not out-of-state?" "Positive." "You see, that's what threw me off." "You know, it just didn't fit, Kimble and a local vehicle." "One thing I'm certain about, that station wagon had truck plates." "All right." "I want a list of every vehicle reported stolen in this state in the last month." "Well, we've gone through the local reports." "That's not enough." "If it were stolen, Kimble's smart enough not to stay in this area." "Okay, lieutenant, I'll get you the list." "A temporary job in the peaceful meadows of the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania." "Calling himself Russell Jordan," "At least for a few days." "Hey, what's going on there?" "That horse okay?" "All right, you wanna keep your job?" "Take it easy with that animal." "Let's snap it up, you guys." "Here comes Mr. Brame." "You, Jordan." "Don't take all day loading that wagon, move." "Good morning, Mr. Brame." " Everything okay?" " Sure, Mr. Brame, except, uh..." "Except what?" "Well, that new stallion's a little bit spooked." " Go on up the house." " You going to belong?" "As long as it takes me." "Everything's fine down here." "Don't have to worry about a thing." "Just look around." "I intend to." "Oh, excuse me." "He's new." "Gets the sack tomorrow." "All right, Clark, don't hang on me." "I want you, I'll call you." "Hah, hah!" "Go on, get back!" "Hah!" "Now, don't try to move." "I'll get a doctor." "No, no doctor." "You're..." "You're one up on me." " Well, anyone would've-Maybe." "But you're the one who did it." "So now I've gotta square things with you." "There's nothing even close, lieutenant." "Then we'll have to get a list from Motor Vehicles." "All the registered station wagons in this area." "Well, the truck plates make it easier." "It's probably connected to some company." "That's where we'll start." "Every station wagon owned by a company concern or operation within a radius of 100 miles." "We'll hit them one by one." "Well, that could take some time, lieutenant." "I've got some time." "Well, let's get on it." "Jordan." " You wanted to see me?" " Mr. Brame does." "You can guess about what, huh?" "Hey, you did yourself good, friend." "Real good." "Wait in the study." "Come on in." "Drink?" "No, thank you." "Go on, sit down." "I'm supposed to entertain you until he gets down here." "I'm not very good at it." "Well, I'm Sharon." "Hi, Sharon." "I'll tell you something." "You can work Arthur over real good and he'll stand still for it, believe me." "Good, I'll remember." "No, I'm not putting you on." "Look around." "He's got plenty." "There's no reason why you shouldn't get some of it after what you did." "I just happened to get there first." "Well, that's the point!" ".You were the one." "So take what you can get." "Anybody else would." "Why should you be different?" " I'm not." " You are though, from what I can see." " I am?" " You're quieter." "And you're more educated too." "I can tell from the way you talk." "Oh, there's nothing wrong with it." "I like it." "But that's what makes you different." "And what else?" "Hmm." "You seem to keep things inside like maybe you got something to hide." "Do you?" "Okay, leave us alone." "No, thank you." "Sharon's a good girl." "Knows to keep out of the way." "A lot of them don't." "You like this?" "I had it decorated myself." "It's very nice." "These are not bought, you know." "I made every kill myself." "Not an easy one in the bunch." "An easy kill, I give away." "No reason to keep them unless you have to work for them, right?" "I'm not much of a hunter." "No?" "What about guns?" "See these?" "Only modern." "No antiques." "I like something that gets the job done." "The best." "I'm afraid I don't know much about guns either." "You don't, huh?" "Just a traveling man?" " Sort of." " That's your business." "Me, no matter what kind of work I do, there's only one thing I really enjoy." "This." "Hunting." "Too bad you never took it up." "I'd take you out." "You'd enjoy it." "Possibly." "You would." "I guarantee it." "But that's for another time." "Here." "Ahem." "My tailor." "You take the afternoon off." "Go into town, get yourself outfitted, anything you want." "That's not necessary." "I think it is." "It took guts to go into that stall after me." "I just thought I could make it." "That's not a good reason to risk your life for someone you don't even know." "But one thing's sure, whatever problems you had when you came here, you don't have any more." "That's a promise, and I'm a man who never breaks his word." "Well, I appreciate all this" "What's the matter?" "You don't need anything?" "Well, yeah, sure." "It's just that..." "Well, the job is almost finished here and I like to travel light." "Finished?" "Look, Jordan, maybe you don't get it." "You have a job with me as long as you want it." "Here, California, Vegas, in any of my operations." " Legit jobs too." "Nothing illegal." " I appreciate it, but" "You saved my life." "I don't forget something like that." "Maybe it's honor, or whatever you wanna call it, but I owe you, and one way or another I'll pay you." "All right, I just wanted you to know how I feel." "Well, maybe its only money that turns you on." "Okay, name a figure." "If you're not too greedy, you got it." "Well, why don't you just keep me on the payroll for the rest of the week, then give me a month's pay?" "That should square it." "Call it severance pay." "Okay." "A week, if that's what you want." "But severance pay is not gonna square it by me." "I don't like to owe anybody anything." "You're no different from any other man." "There's bound to be something special you need, something only I can do for you." "And I won't be satisfied till I do it." "Well, they got half-tons,I semis, pickup trucks." "I" "Everything except station wagons." "You know, I thought sure we'd find it before this." "You having doubts?" "Well, we've been at this for over two days now." "It can be in the last place we check just as easily as the first." "Well, you have a lot more patience than I do." "I've been at it longer." " Well, where now?" " Way out in the country." "Arthur Brame." "He has a farm raising thoroughbreds." "Brame?" "Sounds familiar." "It should be." "He used to be in the rackets." "Arthur" " Oh, of course." "He was more than in the rackets." " Yeah, so I heard." " Yeah." "Started out as a small-time torpedo." "Bodyguard to atop mobster." "Worked his way up fast." "Got to be a big shot on his own." "Well, around here now he's the regular country gentleman." "All his other enterprises are syndicate-financed, but legitimate." "Lieutenant, you sound as if you don't believe he's been rehabilitated." "Killing was his business and he excelled at it." "Men like that don't change." "Not many of them anyway." "What about Kimble?" "You think he'd tie himself up with a man like Brame?" "Not likely." "Anyway, all we have right now is a station wagon to check out." "Well, look who's here." "Would you like a drink?" " All right." " Help yourself." "Thank you." "Oh." "All dressed up and no place to go." "No, not yet." "You don't have much time, Mr. Jordan." "Not much at all." "Arthur's going to take off on a business trip to London." "When?" "Sometime next week." "So you better make up your mind fast." "About what?" "Your reward." "Or whatever you've got in your mind." "Now is the time to make the push." "And what do you think I have in my mind?" "I don't know." "You've played it too cool for me so far." "Well, maybe I don't want anything from him." "Maybe." "Maybe." "I think he knows how I feel." "Not one bit more than I do." "Well, why can't you take me at face value?" "Oh, Honest Sam, the good guy." "That's the smartest con of all." "Because everything has to be a con?" "Isn't everything?" "Not necessarily." "I gave you one bit of good advice, and now I'm going to give you another." "Don't get in over your head with Arthur." "Right now he trusts you, but don't cross him." "If he thought you were pulling a fast one, all he'd have to do is pick up that phone and out." "Well, I've given him no reason to think I'm pulling a fast one." "Just don't underestimate him, that's all I'm saying." "There are things about this setup that you don't know anything about." "You sound like you're talking more for yourself than for him." "And what if I am?" "I've got a lot of things around here of my own to protect." "Arthur is good to me, and we have a lot of plans together." "Look, I wanna believe you, but too many things don't add up." "Nothing about you fits, and that scares me." "Unless I am Honest Sam with no con." "Well, you'd be the first one I've met since I turned off on Santa Claus. i" "Excuse me a minute," "I left the keys in the car." "The oar is registered to Arthur Brame, lieutenant." "I suggest we go in and see him." "Sharon." "Those are oops." "I saw them from upstairs." "Stall them." "Murdered his wife." "How do you like that?" " You've never seen him?" " No." " Positive?" " I couldn't be more positive." "I mean, he looks..." "Well, I don't know." "How do you ever tell about people?" "Lieutenant, I didn't get the license plate number, but I'm almost positive that that's the station wagon out there." "We'll have to see Brame and check whoever else is around." "What's the matter, isn't my word good enough?" "It is for me." "What's happening?" " You're Arthur Brame?" " Yes." "I'm Lieutenant Gerard." "You new around here?" "I thought I knew all the local cops." "I'm an Indiana cop, Mr. Brame." "I'd like to know if you've ever seen this man before." ""Kimble."" " Murder?" " Killed his wife." "Isn't that something?" "Indiana's quite a ways." "He must be somebody special." "You know the man or not?" "Important, huh?" "Yes, it's important." "Have you ever seen him?" "Matter of fact, I have." "He worked for me a couple of weeks." "Right here." "Is he still here?" "No, I didn't wanna waste him around here." "Too much class for cleaning stables." "This young lady claims she's never seen him." "I don't pay much attention to the hired help." "This guy stood out." "Not the type you'd pick up for part-time work." "Is there someone else who'd know about him?" "Sure." "I wanted him to stick with us, so I sent him over to see Jim Delaney." "Who's he?" " My number one man." "Among other things, he hires and fires for all my operations." "I sent this man to him to see if he could find a place for him." "And did he?" "Well, he should have." "Coming on a recommendation from me personally." "Where can I see Delaney?" "I have a processing plant in Pittsburgh." "Headquarters for Arthur Brame Industries." "Delaney's there." "Is that where Kimble is working?" "Well, I doubt it." "He's not the type you'd put on an assembly line." "I" "But you talk to Delaney, he'll have the facts." "You may have to get him on the run." "I mean, he's in and out." "But you'll find him." "How far is the plant?" "Oh, a couple of hours from here, lieutenant." " Thank you." " Good luck, lieutenant." "After he saved your life, you admit he was here." "Why?" "That Indiana cop wasn't gonna give up until he questioned everybody." "You saw the kind he was." "Why'd you tell him anything?" "What I did was smart." "You told the cop a lie that would have made him stick around." "I fed him a lie that made him take off." "Ah." "And he'll be back just as fast once he finds out you sent him on a phony chase." "He's not going to find out." "Hmm?" "What'll you do?" "By the time Gerard gets to Delaney, Kimble will have his chance to get lost." "I should have known you wouldn't turn him in." "Not with what I owe him." "And this should square it." "Yeah." "I suppose." "Hey, I've got things to do." "I'm leaving for London tonight." "Tonight?" "When did this happen?" "Oh, it came up this morning." "The meeting's been pushed up." "Oh." " Will I go?" " It'll only be two days." "I'll pick you up something in Carnaby Street." "Hey." "Okay, okay." "Now get Clark up here for me." "There are things I wanna get settled before I take off." "Okay." "May I help you?" "Yeah, give me a hamburger and a cup of coffee, I guess." "Roast beef's better." "Hmm?" "Uh" " Hamburger's fine." "It's been sitting around four days already." "Oh." "How about the roast beef?" " Good idea." " Good idea." "Relax, friend, I was tailing the van." "I'm supposed to buy you dinner, among other things." "What other things?" "Take it easy." "Mr. Brame was the only one saw you get in the van." "That cop took off in a different direction." "You tell Mr. Brame I'm very grateful, but I'm not hungry right now." "Don't rush, Dr. Kimble." "See?" "Mr. Brame trusts me." "He told me all about you." "Well, then you know I can't afford to stick around here." "Maybe you can." "Here." "From Mr. Brame." "Said it's severance pay." "Well." "A grand." "Not bad." "See what you almost missed?" "Yeah, you tell Mr. Brame I'm very grateful." "Yeah, I guess." "And there's still something else." "He wanted me to tell you to slow down." "The cop that's after you, you don't have to worry about him any more." "What does that mean?" "Well, he's being taken care of." "H ow?" "What difference does that make?" "Well, it makes a lot of difference." "I want to know." "Unless, of course, he doesn't trust you with that information." "Sure, I know." "All right, I'll lay it out for you nice and clean." "Mr. Brame has friends." "Special people that do special jobs." "Contracts." "You know about contracts?" "Yeah." "He let a contract on your cop." "To kill him?" "Well, what else?" "When?" "Look, I don't know everything." "That wouldn't be smart." "But you must have some idea." "Well, he sent that cop chasing off somewhere." "When he gets where he's going, that's when it'll happen." " Where?" " Told you, I don't know." "I wasn't around for that part." "Well, look, I've got to talk to your boss." "Too late for that." "He is on his way to London." "No, not till next week" "Changed his plans." "He's flying his own plane out tonight at 7." "Making connections in New York." "Seven o'clock." "Okay, can we get to the airport by 7:00'?" "Look, not me." "I'm only delivering a message." "Well, let me borrow you car then." "No." "Now, look, I don't like trouble." "You won't make it." "Have you seen a Mr. Brame?" " You're looking the wrong way." " What do you mean?" "Too bad." "You only missed him by a few minutes." "Yeah, thanks." "Yes, Mr. Brame asked me to call you and tell you his plane just left and he expects a oar to be waiting for him in New York." "Then he'll be taken to Kennedy Field for the flight to London." "No, that's all." "Thanks." "Get lost." "You are in big trouble and I don't wanna be seen with you." "I wanna ask you one question." "What happened to that lieutenant that was at the house?" "I could turn you in." "Tell them who you are." "Yeah, I know that." "Oh, yeah." "Honest Sam." "You almost had me believing I'd finally met somebody really decent." "No angles, no con." "And what does he turn out to be?" "The lowest." "A wife killer." "Well, if it makes any difference, I didn't kill her." "Nothing you say makes any difference." "Well, then just tell me where I can find the lieutenant." "What kind of a game is this?" "Why aren't you running?" "As bad as he wants you, Arthur gave you your chance." "Oh." "I just think there's something happening." "I think you know." "I don't know anything." "So leave me alone or I will yell cop." "I don't think so." "Remember, I'm the one that saved Mr. Brame's life." "What do you think he'd do to somebody that turned me in?" "All right, Honest Sam, now you're talking like I'd expect you to." "But I still don't know anything." "You must have some idea of what he's planning." "Sure, he was planning to take a trip, which is just what he did because I just put him in his plane to go to New York." "And then to London." "Well, that's convenient." "If you think something so terrible is happening, why don't you call the police?" "I'll do that." "Yes, this is Lieutenant Gerard's office, but he's not here." "I know that, but it's urgent that I get in touch with him." "Well, I'm sorry, we're not in direct communication with him right now." "Perhaps tomorrow." "No, that could be too late." "Too late for what?" "Look, if it's urgent, I could start checking right now and call you back." "Is there anyplace I could check?" "Trace this." "Well, let's see, if you wanna give me your name..." "That's not important." "Well, it matters to us." "You must understand that if it's police business we're more than willing to cooperate, but we expect the same cooperation in return." "Surely you understand that?" "All right, listen carefully." "You tell him that there's a man been hired to kill him." "Hold on." "Hold on." "I think I need a cup of coffee or something." "Well, we haven't got time for that." "You'd better find the time." "All right." "I think you and I can make a deal." "I wanna know what's going on too." "I thought you knew." "Well, maybe you put some doubts in my mind." "Any other reason?" "What are you doing here?" "What do you want with Arthur?" "Well, we both have some of the answers, maybe if we put them together they'll add up to something." "Maybe." "Well, then let's start with you." "Where did Brame send that police lieutenant?" "Well, he sent him to his processing plant in Pittsburgh to see his number one man, Jim Delaney." "Brame identified me?" "Only to throw them off the track." "Did he tell the lieutenant that I was at the plant?" "No, he made it clear you wouldn't be there." "He's only seeing Delaney for information." "So Gerard would go alone and ask for no help." "You think somethings gonna happen?" "Yes." "Unless you haven't told me something." "You think Arthur has planned something, but he hasn't." "Well, Arthur's going to have the police lieutenant killed." "Oh, no." "No, that's not true." "It's true." "Clark told me." "And you believed him just because of what you've heard of the past, but Arthur is not like that any more." "I'm not interested in the past." "What concerns me is what's happening right now." "Well, I am concerned about Arthur." "He is the only person that means anything to me." "Then you help me warn the lieutenant." "If nothing happens, no harm will come to anyone, including Arthur." "No." "No, I don't wanna know." "Well, then tell me how to get to the processing plant." "You won't need directions." "I'll take you." "You didn't see anything, and you don't remember anything." "You spent 12 man hours trying to fix a perfectly good circuit." "Why, a shoemaker would guess there was a break in the wiring.1" "There." "Ten to one you'll find your trouble right here." " Which one of you is Delaney?" " It can wait." "Tell Carter to get" "Didn't they tell you I was waiting in your office?" "You Lieutenant Gerard?" "Yeah, they told me." "They also told me we had an emergency." "So have I. Or maybe you think a mechanical repair takes priority" "My people cooperated with you, didn't they?" "Gave you the run of the place, let you look through personnel files." "The man I wanted wasn't there." "So you're looking in the wrong place, like Mike here." "I was told this man works here." "You were told wrong." "I never saw him before." "Brame said he worked at the farm." "Part-timer I wouldn't know about." "Brame also said he was put on full-time." "Sent to you for placement." "Somewhere you got your wires crossed, lieutenant." "I've never seen this guy." "He's never been here." "I've never hired him." "What else can I tell you?" "You saying Brame lied to me?" "You know I got better sense than that." "All I'm saying is you misunderstood him." "If Brame had sent you here on a lie, he would call me to cover for him." "Maybe he did." "Maybe your secretary just lost the slip." "We're closing up, lieutenant." "Don't you get lost on the way out." "You tell Carter, just what I said, it's right here." "Ten to one, it's right there." " Gerard's here." " In there?" "No, he's in a building." "Building number 19." "You wait here." "No." "Look, if I'm going to be caught out there between Gerard and whoever it is," "I'll have a better chance by myself." "You stay here." "Gerard!" "Get down!" "Gerard, get down!" "There's a killer out there." "He's trying to kill you." "A killer?" "You warn me about a killer and then you hold a gun on me." "You have your own unique sense of justice." "We can talk about justice later." "That wasn't my doing." "Well, this killing isn't mine." "Shall I tell you something, Kimble?" "I'd never believe it was." "I think I know that much about you." "Well, we're not out of here yet." "Until we are, I'll just hold on to this." "All right, you've got the gun, use it." "Shoot that light out." "We'll have a better chance in the dark." "From here on, stay close to me, you understand?" "Arthur, no." "Kimble's with him." "He doesn't want him killed." " I can't help it if he's a fool." " Look, I've got the oar." "No, I've set this trap and he can't get out." "This will square the whole thing." "You're not doing this for him." "You're doing this for you." "You've missed killing." "Why, you get some kind • of kick out of it." "Aah!" "•" "Kimble!" "Well, he can't have gotten far if you set up your road blocks quickly." "No, I am not trying to tell you your business." "All right." "Thank you, sergeant." "Back there, you had a choice." "Arthur, or the one you've been chasing." "That's right." "Why?" "Why couldn't it have been the other one?" "I wanted both of them, but one of them is a killer." "He'd killed before and if he'd gotten away, he'd have killed again." "The other one, Kimble, he's done the one murder he'd probably ever do." "Until I find him" "And I will." "He's no real menace to anyone but himself." "Honest Sam." "No real menace to anyone but himself" "That's the way it must be for Richard Kimble, still alone and hunted." "Even the good he might do is unable to balance the scales of justice which have made him, and keep him, a fugitive."
