"Make yourself at home." "Heh-heh." "Man, how lucky can one girl get." "I'm in the middle of an American dream." "Here I am, stranded on an island with a handsome stranger." "There's only one problem." "My handsome stranger turns out to be a wife-killer." "Oh, didn't you forget?" "I don't knife women." "I strangle them." "You have a very peculiar sense of humor." "Your game." "It's your game now." "You've got the gun." "I threw it away." "Oh, sure you did." "Look, that wind, it's getting much worse." "Any minute, the house could be leveled to the ground." "Now let's forget this sarcasm, and think about surviving, all right?" "You survive your way." "Hey." "Here's to Dr. Richard Kimble." "You know what you should have on your shingle, doctor?" ""Kill or cure." "Take your pick. "" "Well, you believe what you want to." "You will anyway." "Yeah, I've heard that in death row you can't find a guilty man." "You never get tired of playing that part, do you?" "What part, doctor?" "It's like something out of an old Joan Crawford movie, I guess." "The picture hasn't even started yet." "All right, let's talk about it." "You came to my office five years ago." "You wanted an abortion." "I turned you down." "I couldn't have been the only one." "Nope, but you were the last." "Like I say, that makes me owe you something." "Did you have the baby?" "Nope, and he fixed it so I couldn't ever have another one." "I'm sorry." "Oh, that's too little and too late, doctor." "I'm sorry for you, not for what I did." "Well, then why don't you start being sorry." "If you'd been a human being, if you'd been a man instead of a..." "I don't know, some kind of two-legged breathing ethic," "I might still be in one piece." "A lot of women can't have children." "I tell you, doctor, you can take that little gem and you throw it in the fireplace along with the rest of the trash." "Operator, I want the police." "I want the police." "No!" "No, no." "Oh, no." "No." "Why did you do that?" "Why did you-?" "Doctor, we've only just met." "Don't you want something to wash that stuff down with?" "You be careful or you'll say something friendly." "Well, consider it a mistake." "It's getting worse." "I'm sorry about that." "What do you mean you're sorry?" "I thought maybe you were blaming the weather on me too." "Oh, doctor." "You know, you really give me a very large pain." "I never would have guessed that." "Let me go." "Let me go!" "Let me go." "I've got to get my" "The ceiling's gonna go any minute now." "Now you stay out of there." "Let me" "Let me go!" "Gotta get my clothes out." "I've gotta get my cl" "Fink." "Everything." "Give me that." "Give that back to me." "Give it to me." "You don't have any money, eh?" "Five, ten- It's 25,000, and it's mine." "How can it be yours?" "You were wiped out, remember?" "That's the money we were gonna use to get to Brazil." "Now give it back." "Come on." "Now I'll just hold on to it for a while." "What for?" "Oh, I don't wanna spoil your image of me." "You know, a thief and murderer, a rainmaker." "Oh, come on, come on." "I told you it's mine." "Let me have it." "Legally, it belongs to the estate of Harry Montjoy." "Legally." "Oh, boy, you're not hard to read." "You're not hard to read at all." "Twenty-five thousand's a pretty good stake for a man who's gotta keep on the move, isn't it?" "You like to make a bet with me that I don't get my money back?" "I'll just hold on to it for a while." "It's, uh, my edge, huh?" "Suddenly I feel very sober." "I don't like it." "Hey, what do you say we have a truce?" "I mean, you know, like, make the best of it." "See, somebody like me..." "Well, the only way you're gonna make it is to figure the other guy's out to cut you into little pieces, so you cut first." "Only, I don't know, I guess I'm trying to say" "I think maybe I was wrong about you." "It doesn't have anything to do with the fact that I have your money." "Look, I'm trying to apologize." "You kinda saved my life in there, and all I'm trying to do right now is say thank you." "All right." "You ever live in Chicago?" "I've been there." "Some of it gets pretty rough, you know." "Like where I grew up." "It's not pretty." "It's not pretty at all." "My father" "I don't remember him, but... everybody tells me he was a..." "He was a big man when Capone was around." "Well, then he's dead." "I hope so." "Yeah, I know." "That's not pretty either, but it's true." "He, uh" " He did the runout bit." "I wasn't even a year old." "You mind my shooting off my mouth like this?" "Well, I'm not going anywhere." "And there's no TV, right?" "Hmm?" "Huh?" "No, no TV." "But I don't know why you wanna tell me all this." "I suppose because when you want to talk about how sorry you feel for yourself, it's nicer if somebody listens." "Yeah, I suppose so." "Okay." "Now, where was I?" "Oh, yeah, yeah." "I was growing up in that rat hole." "Oh, boy, that was some place." "If the rats had had a board of health, they'd have condemned it." "What about the rest of your family?" "Mm." "My family." "Well... as far as I can gather from my brother, the night my father skipped out, my mother sat down and picked up a bottle of wine and didn't put it down again for ten years." "That's not very pretty, like you said." "I'm sorry." "But you know the funny thing?" "Through all that muck, all that time, I had a dream." "Wasn't a spectacular dream, it was a very usual dream:" "the husband and the kids." "I almost made it." "At least, I thought I almost made it." "Only catch was that when Prince Charming discovered that the beautiful princess was pregnant, he got onto his white charger and galloped off into the sunset alone." "So after the handsome prince, uh, that's where I came in." "Yeah, that's where you came in." "I, uh, might as well tell you now," "I'd do the same thing today." "Yeah, I suppose you would." "Anyhow." "So now, when I found out what... they had done to me," "I said, "World, you go to the devil." ""I'm going back to what I know how to do best to get the things I want. "" "And, man, I wanted a lot of things and they were very expensive, which is where the late Harry Montjoy came in." "And the curtain will now fall to thunderous applause and the audience will leave, dry-eyed to the last." "What now?" "I don't know." "Start from scratch, I guess." "Well, my wife" "My wife couldn't have children." "Yeah, I know." "I mean, that's" "That's what you said you and your wife were arguing about that night." "Something about her not wanting to adopt a kid." "You must have followed the trial pretty closely." "Yeah." "Like you said, I was nursing a pretty big grudge." "And now?" "I don't know." "It's like how things change when you get up close to 'em." "Y-you know what I mean?" "You know how- How when you're in a car, a-and way ahead of you, you see this" " This" " This range of big scary mountains?" "And you figure you never can make it, nobody could get a road through there." "All of a sudden you're right in the middle of 'em, and they're not mountains at all, they're just" "They're just plain hills." "You know what I mean?" "Yeah, I think so." "I'm glad the lights went out." "We better get some sleep." "You take the couch." "Well, what'll you do?" "I'll, uh" "I'll sleep here in the chair." "Hey, now that we're friends, can I have my money back?" "I'm sorry." "Sure." "Yeah." "Insurance." "Oh!" "What's the matter?" "I left my suitcase down in the boat." "Well, you'll just have to leave it there for the night." "Well, even in the midst of a hurricane, doctor, there are certain things a lady has to do to her face before she goes to bed." "My tools are in that suitcase." "Oh, all right, I'll get it for you." "No." "No, you won't." "I'll go." "And if a palm tree hits me on the head, you can patch me up." "That's right." "Key Blanca." "Just notify the police." "They'll know." "His name is Richard Kimble." "K-I-M-B-L-E." "That's all." "MAN Okay." "Over and out." "Fixed you something to eat." "It's not much." "The stove's electric." "It went out with everything else." "Oh." "That's great." "Heat up some coffee on the fire over there if you like." "No." "No, thank you." "I got told once never to mix my drinks." "Anyhow, this, uh" " This stuff warms you up pretty good." "How's the boat?" "Oh, the boat's fine." "It's okay." "The wind is dying down a little." "We can think about, uh, getting out of here." "Well, the, uh..." "The ocean looks pretty scary." "Oh, I don't mean right now." "Maybe in an hour or so." "That's too bad." "I was beginning to like it out here." "Well, you have to get back to the... street." "That's funny." "That's very funny." "That's not funny." "It's sad." "Be a lot more sad if it were true." "What do you mean?" "What are you talking about?" "Everything you've told me so far has been a lie." "What?" "A lie from start to finish." "I should have realized that, it was a little pat." "A deserting father, the alcoholic mother." "I hate to shake you out of your ivory tower, doctor, there are people who live that way." "Some people do." "Not you." "Okay." "What makes you think I was lying?" "You came from a fairly fashionable section of Chicago," "North Side." "Your father wasn't with the mob." "He didn't skip out." "Matter of fact, your father was a doctor" " He is a doctor." "Thinks a great deal of you." "And if your mother has a drinking problem, well, I can guess what started it." "You read palms too?" "No, I read letters." "Like the one that came from your father." "You didn't have any right to go into my" "You want to count it?" "Why?" "I-I mean- What you mean is that you didn't think you'd ever see it again." "That's right." "Well, you just can't trust some people, can you?" "Uh, but you knew." "So?" "I mean you knew I was lying to you." "Yeah, I knew you were lying to me." "I think I know why." "I think you're ashamed of yourself." "I think you're ashamed of what you've become." "To put it in your words, it's not very pretty." "So if you throw a little mud on the mirror, then the reflection doesn't look too bad." "I didn't just lie to you." "I lied to everybody." "Sometimes I even believe it." "Well, it's a good alibi." "Poor girl who didn't have a chance." "Hm?" "Yeah, that's what everybody said." "Everybody but me." "Okay." "Okay." "You're right." "Everything you said." "I did live in a nice part of town." "I think they call it upper-middle class or something." "And it wasn't good enough for me." "I wanted first class and I wanted the best." "That's terrible, right?" "Not necessarily." "And I, uh" "I found out pretty early that there were certain circles where I could get the best." "Very easy, just forget a few simple things that Mother told me to remember." "Well, why not, if it's a grab-first world?" "I can prove it." "I didn't say anything." "No, I guess you didn't." "Marcie, this grab-first world of yours, there's another world." "You've been there." "Oh, yeah." "That's some world." "The land of the self-righteous." "It's not that bad." "Yeah?" "Then why are you running away from it?" "I'm not running away." "I'm... trying to catch up with it." "You really didn't kill her, did you?" "No." "Say, listen, um..." "Listen, if you're right, if the wind really is dying down, uh," "maybe we really should think about getting out of here." "There's time." "Yeah, but it, uh" "It may be dangerous." "Well, the worst is over." "Oh, I don't mean the storm." "I mean" "I mean, what if they come looking for you?" "Who?" "Well, I don't know." "Your boss could have sent the police or the Coast Guard or something." "You know, the boat wasn't there." "But they'd be looking for Larry Phelps, not Richard Kimble." "Yeah, yeah, I know, but, uh..." "Still and all, isn't it, uh... better to stay out of their way entirely?" "Well, if anybody comes, it would be the Coast Guard." "I'll go down to the boat and, um... see if I can round somebody on the radio, get a weather report." "Well, why do you have to do that?" "You just said the wind was dying down." "The storm might be headed for the mainland." "Please don't go down there." "Oh, you'll... be all right here." "Back in a minute." "MAN Patty B, this is Coast Guard station." "We hear you." "Over." "Uh, this is Larry Phelps." "I'm moored off Key Blanca." "What's the latest on the weather?" "Over." "Hurricane moving slower than expected." "Should be clear vicinity Key Blanca one and a half, two hours." "You people all okay?" "Over." "Yeah, so far." "Look, would you call my boss, Charlie Hannah, tell him I'm sitting it out all right?" "Over." "Will do." "And tell the lady who called before we got her message to the sheriff okay." "They'll be out in a copter as soon as it clears." "Over." "Yeah, I'll tell her." "Over and out." "Did you get the weather report?" "It'll be clear in a couple of hours." "There's, um..." "There's something..." "They said to tell you the police will be here when it clears." "I was gonna tell you." "Sure you were." "I was." "Just now." "I swear I was." "I..." "Look, I was scared, don't you understand?" "I understand that the, uh... pigeon got caught in the trap." "I wish I hadn't done it." "Yeah." "I really wish I hadn't done it." "You've gotta believe that." "I've tried believing you, that didn't work." "Well, I didn't know." "I thought you were gonna kill me." "Listen to me." "Please, listen to me." "Look, all my life, I've played it one way:" "look out for number one, don't give, don't trust, don't love." "I'll tell you something, it kept me out of trouble and it stopped me from being hurt." "You know what I'm saying?" "I'm messing it up." "What?" "Oh, yes." "I guess I... really wanna say... that in my own... stupid twisted way I..." "I think I'm in love with you." "Well, you have a funny way of showing it, lady." "I've- I've tried to explain." "What do you want?" "The truth." "There must be something about you that's real." "Well, first I get the story about the poor little slum kid." "And then I get a kiss." "Now, what was the kiss for?" "To find out if I still had the gun?" "I thought so." "And then I get this beautiful, sincere declaration of love." "You don't even know how that word is spelled, lady." "Yeah, okay, forget it." "I..." "The only important thing now is" "Is you gotta get outta here." "Yeah, at least out of this cabin." "W-what you gonna do?" "Well, I don't know, but I don't think I'll tell you so you can tell your friends." "Look." "Look, there's one chance." "Get on the boat." "You know these waters." "Go to one of those other keys." "There are dozens of them." "It'll be hours before the helicopters come out." "Now, you've got a- You could get a good jump." "With a helicopter, they could find me in half an hour." "The boat's your only chance!" "Dick." "Dick!" "Dick, it's pulling loose!" "Now get that line free." "What?" "See if you can get that line free." "No!" "There's some" "There's something you gotta know." "What is it, Marcie?" "Come closer, it's hard to talk." "I'm right here." "You mad?" "Well, I'm not sure." "Good." "I'll bet you that's the first time" "Sleeping Beauty kissed the prince." "I got a feeling you're gonna pull through." "Hey, you smiled at me." "I'm sorry about the boat." "Yeah." "Look, I know it" "It sounds pretty silly after everything I've done, but what I said on the boat, that was true." "You probably still don't believe it, and I know you don't feel the same way I do." "I don't know what I feel, Marcie." "I'm just not angry anymore." "Well, that's a beginning." "I can't afford beginnings." "Look, I got an idea." "And you've gotta listen to me all the way through, okay?" "Okay." "First of all, you've gotta steer clear of the police, right?" "Okay, so while they get here, you get under cover and I'll tell 'em that you took off in the launch." "I-I'll tell them that you- You found out that I called them and you just took off in the storm." "That could work." "Well, they gotta believe me." "The boat's gone, isn't it?" "And even if they find it, you could have been washed overboard." "What about you?" "I haven't finished yet." "Okay, so Harry's dead, right?" "Now, he's never gonna get that half million dollars in Brazil, right?" "Well, okay, so you take his passport." "It's right over there on the desk and who's to say you're not him?" "How would we get out of the country?" "Well, that's arranged." "Harry paid off the captain of a Brazilian freighter." "He's gonna pick us up here next week." "Hey, y" "It's a sure thing, you know?" "You don't wanna keep running for the next 40 years." "And it's..." "It's a life." "It" "It's a pretty good life." "Twenty-five thousand to start off with, and... no more running, and no more hiding." "Wouldn't you want that?" "Marcie, this will still be running." "If I stay here, I've got a chance that someday I can stop running." "Well, what kind of chance?" "That... you're just gonna happen to bump into that one-armed creep?" "You're j- You're just gonna happen to" "It's a long shot." "Oh, yeah, it's a long shot, but it's..." "It's all that I've got." "All I know is I want you." "There's not a single thing in it for me for the first time." "How's that for a loser?" "You can make it, Marcie." "Take too long to wash the dirt off." "Not as long as you think." "It's down deep." "Under the skin." "I don't know, maybe" "Oh, Dick, I'm sorry." "Where could they land?" "There's a clearing down by the dock." "Then I..." "I can't get to the outboard." "Well, okay, then stay out of sight and I'll tell 'em that story we talked about." "Yeah, I know." "You don't have one reason in the world to trust me, but try, just this once." "I, uh..." "I've forgotten." "In those old movies, did..." "Did Joan Crawford turn out to be good or bad?" "If you make it, I could wait for you in Brazil." "Why, 'cause I go along with the deal?" "I don't have to." "I mean that." "I wouldn't go without you, Marcie, and I can't go with you." "Hurry up." "Are you ready, Miss King?" "I'm ready." "You know, you're not kidding about having yourself a night." "Being in that hurricane and that guy, Kimble, you could have wound up a very dead young lady." "Yeah, it's funny how it worked out, just the other way around." "Pardon?" "Doesn't matter." "A long night for Richard Kimble, but for a fugitive, the nights are always the longest."
