00:01:57This is the city of Los Angeles.
00:01:59One of the fastest growing communities in the United States today.
00:02:02A city that still reflects the charm and customs of its native past.
00:02:07A city of culture.
00:02:09Of advanced liberal education that keeps abreast of each new generation.
00:02:14A city of progress and tremendous engineering accomplishments.
00:02:18Los Angeles, city of the angels.
00:02:21But like any other city, it has its back alleys.
00:02:25Its world of saints and sinners.
00:02:28And the half world of dark shadows some of them dwell in.
00:02:32The darkest of these shadows is marijuana.
00:02:36In every large city there are men like Captain Hayes, chief of the narcotic division.
00:02:41His job is to combat and control this evil menace.
00:02:45His fight, a 24-hour one.
00:02:48His weapons, simple but effective.
00:02:51Patience and intelligence.
00:02:53Every case history tells the same story.
00:02:56A story that's a tragic pattern of men and women's lives.
00:03:00Cause, marijuana.
00:03:02This harmless looking cigarette is cloaked in many innocent disguises.
00:03:07But light the match, inhale the smoke, and it becomes an invitation to your own murder.
00:03:13This killer and the man who sells it has no respect for anybody.
00:03:17His victims are any lost soul.
00:03:20It matters not to whom the soul belongs.
00:03:23The seller's method of operation, simple.
00:03:26Keep the mind from thinking.
00:03:28The mind thinks, the world becomes a real thing.
00:03:32With troubles and problems without the answers.
00:03:35But he has the answer.
00:03:37Escape.
00:03:38Sell the dreams people want to dream.
00:03:41Keep them from waking up.
00:03:43Because once they do, you're out of business.
00:03:46Of course, the rich can afford to pay more for their dreams.
00:03:50It's a profitable game.
00:03:52And when boredom sets in, heroin, cocaine, opium is always the next step.
00:03:59At higher prices.
00:04:01If you live that long, this man has no pride.
00:04:05To lay his hands on an extra dollar, he'll set this killer loose on anyone.
00:04:10Even your kids who go to high school.
00:04:13You may even know him.
00:04:15His name is Markie.
00:04:17Oh, Ricky, I love you.
00:04:23Change five pennies for a nickel, Pop.
00:04:41Be right back, baby.
00:04:47Hiya, Markie.
00:04:49Shut up, you crazy kid.
00:04:51How many times have I told you not to mention my name?
00:04:54Oh, yeah, yeah, sorry.
00:04:56Oh, you're getting good taste.
00:04:58Wish I was young again.
00:05:00It's gonna cost you five bucks tonight.
00:05:02Five bucks?
00:05:03That's right.
00:05:04Weekend special.
00:05:05Three for five, just for you.
00:05:07But five dollars, that's all I got.
00:05:09Go tell your old man to double your allowance next week.
00:05:12No.
00:05:13Come on, dig.
00:05:14You want it or not?
00:05:15Haven't got all night.
00:05:16Okay, okay.
00:05:19Have fun.
00:05:41One more, one more.
00:05:43Hey, give her some.
00:05:46Here, have one.
00:05:51I'm on a great big purple cloud, and it's real purple.
00:05:55Hey, you look funny.
00:05:57You've got purple hair.
00:05:59Let's go dance.
00:06:01Let's go.
00:06:05Ricky, look out, there's a car coming.
00:06:07Watch me give a shave.
00:06:16Oh, my baby.
00:06:18My baby.
00:06:29Well, the morgue did a big business.
00:06:31Three lives.
00:06:32One girl never to walk again, if she lives.
00:06:35Too bad it wasn't the guy who sold the house.
00:06:37He'd have to pay for it.
00:06:39He'd have to pay for it.
00:06:41He'd have to pay for it.
00:06:43Three lives.
00:06:44Too bad it wasn't the guy who sold him those sticks.
00:06:46We'll get him, Mason.
00:06:48May take time.
00:06:49When we do, we'll throw the book at him.
00:06:55From all reports, this peddler isn't the ordinary run of the mill.
00:06:59He moves in all circles, from Beverly Hills and Bel Air to the nightclubs along the Strip,
00:07:03from Hollywood and the Wilshire District all the way down to Skid Row.
00:07:07I'm assigning you and Ty in this case.
00:07:10You're going to work as a team.
00:07:12This deal handles strictly on the hush side.
00:07:14He'll pick up snow arrests.
00:07:16We can pull in the users any time.
00:07:18We do it now, they may clam up.
00:07:20They talk, their supply is cut off.
00:07:22Our job is to find the main source of supply,
00:07:24who sells it to the peddlers,
00:07:26how he rolls the stuff in and where he stores it.
00:07:29Looks like our vacation is over.
00:07:31It was so nice and quiet in the community, too.
00:07:34Somebody had to go get greedy and start a big push on the stuff again.
00:07:38But if we blow this deal, boys, all our vacations will be permanent.
00:07:42I better get some sleep.
00:07:44This may be our last chance.
00:07:46Boss was right.
00:07:48Sleep? That was for babies.
00:07:51I went home, dug out my old school books,
00:07:53loaded up my pockets with nickels for the jukebox,
00:07:56brushed up on my jive talk.
00:07:58Then I played a solo in that malt shop.
00:08:01Another drink, madam?
00:08:05Me?
00:08:06Oh, I joined the union to wear the uniform.
00:08:08If the customers hadn't been loyal patrons,
00:08:10I think I would have put the owner out of business.
00:08:13I was all hands, about six.
00:08:15The only trouble was, five of them didn't function.
00:08:30Say, Markie, can you let me have...
00:08:32Uh-uh, sweetheart.
00:08:34I crossed your name off my book, so I'm not in business for long.
00:08:37I can pay you next week.
00:08:39See me then.
00:08:41But, Markie, I...
00:08:42No more action.
00:08:43We have only four more years before opening.
00:08:46Vite, vite, mes chers.
00:08:47We do not have all day.
00:08:48Address quickly, please.
00:08:50Hello, Hugo.
00:08:51Find any new talent lately?
00:08:53Big?
00:08:54You stay away from my girls.
00:08:56Hugo, you hurt my professional pride.
00:08:58You want them to have rhythm, don't you?
00:09:01Don't go short.
00:09:16Back in a minute, honey.
00:09:21Hello, Markie.
00:09:22I'm awful jumpy today.
00:09:24Are you holding?
00:09:27I've been telling you, Markie, she's a nice kid.
00:09:30She's only working here because she needs a dough.
00:09:33Markie, did you hear what I asked?
00:09:35I've had my eye on that for a long time.
00:09:38Lay off, Markie.
00:09:40She's the kind that works to help support her brother.
00:09:43Wants him to have a decent education.
00:09:45I...
00:09:46Rita, you sound as if I had the wrong ideas.
00:09:49I think education is a wonderful thing.
00:09:52I think education is a wonderful thing.
00:09:55I want to talk to her about it.
00:09:57I told you, she's a nice kid.
00:10:00So am I.
00:10:01I like nice kids.
00:10:04That's why I want to meet her.
00:10:06Arrange a party.
00:10:09Markie, I...
00:10:11Make it tonight.
00:10:14All right.
00:10:16You're a real sensible girl, Rita.
00:10:19The kind that knows how to keep a good friend.
00:10:22All right.
00:10:48Oh, Ann.
00:10:49I'm throwing a little party tonight.
00:10:51Sensational.
00:10:52How about coming over?
00:10:53Well, Bob's coming home from college.
00:10:55Summer vacation.
00:10:56He may be in tonight.
00:10:58We'll bring the party to you.
00:11:00Really welcome the kid home.
00:11:11Now you kiss me.
00:11:15Now you.
00:11:18Hey, baby.
00:11:20I like yours better.
00:11:21Your mustache, it tickles.
00:11:26Tickle, tickle, tickle.
00:11:27Well, the lady really is alive.
00:11:29Had me worried for a while.
00:11:31Rita always gets fun out of things.
00:11:33Don't you?
00:11:35I guess maybe I'm too busy trying to make a living.
00:11:38I helped send my brother to college.
00:11:40Yeah, so I heard.
00:11:42What you need maybe is a little education yourself.
00:11:44Learn to relax.
00:11:46Put your hair down.
00:11:50You got a lot of class.
00:11:52Charm.
00:11:54With a guy like me, you might even go places.
00:11:56I know a lot of people.
00:11:58The right kind.
00:12:00You might even call me a sort of Santa Claus.
00:12:04I could turn your life into a nice, big, beautiful sleigh ride.
00:12:09Enough dough to put your brother through college twice.
00:12:13You make living sound attractive.
00:12:18Here, try one of mine.
00:12:22Go ahead, it won't hurt you.
00:12:40No, Markie.
00:12:42Maybe for somebody else.
00:12:44But not for me.
00:12:46Oh, what are you worried about?
00:12:48You're over 21.
00:12:50You got a mind of your own.
00:12:53I think you're the type that can take it or leave it.
00:13:01Hey, fellas, Ann's gonna join the club.
00:13:03Come on, we can't miss this.
00:13:05That's a good girl.
00:13:07Don't be a boy sport, Ann.
00:13:08It's fun, you'll love it.
00:13:10Well, maybe one puff won't hurt me.
00:13:13Sure, you know I wouldn't scare you wrong.
00:13:19Oh, no, baby, not like that.
00:13:21Here, try a puff.
00:13:22For somebody else, stupid.
00:13:23Not her.
00:13:27Like this, honey.
00:13:33See?
00:13:34Now you try it.
00:13:37That's the way!
00:13:39One is like nothing beautiful.
00:13:41Try another.
00:14:07How am I doing?
00:14:09Fine.
00:14:10It's a real pleasure.
00:14:17Congratulations!
00:14:19Now you'll start living!
00:14:21I'm so happy!
00:14:23I'm so happy!
00:14:25I'm so happy!
00:14:27I'm so happy!
00:14:29I'm so happy!
00:14:31I'm so happy!
00:14:33I'm so happy!
00:14:35I'm so happy!
00:14:42My head is so light, it feels like it's floating.
00:14:45That's because your troubles are all gone.
00:14:48Try another puff.
00:14:49See how pretty the world looks then.
00:14:52You're so smart, Mikey.
00:14:54So smart.
00:14:56Music!
00:14:58Somebody play some music!
00:14:59I want to dance!
00:15:00May I buy a ticket?
00:15:22I want to dance, too!
00:15:24All that energy, beautiful.
00:15:26Let's not waste it dancing.
00:15:37Sis!
00:15:40Oh, Sis!
00:15:41Oh, Sis!
00:15:42Oh, Sis!
00:15:43Oh, Sis!
00:15:44Oh, Sis!
00:15:45Oh, Sis!
00:15:46Oh, Sis!
00:15:47Oh, Sis!
00:15:48Oh, Sis!
00:15:49Oh, Sis!
00:15:50Oh, Sis!
00:16:10Come on, wake up.
00:16:12Give me another stick, Marky.
00:16:14Give me another stick.
00:16:15Come on, who are you?
00:16:17I am not Marky.
00:16:19Come on, get up.
00:16:22Now, get up.
00:16:23Now, wait a minute, Joe.
00:16:25I said get up.
00:16:27I'm Ant's brother.
00:16:28Anything else you want to know?
00:16:30I'm sorry.
00:16:35What a night.
00:16:49Ant!
00:17:20Sis.
00:17:22Ant.
00:17:24No, Marky.
00:17:26No more.
00:17:27Makes my head spin.
00:17:29I'm not ready to have it.
00:17:34Sis.
00:17:35Wake up, Sis.
00:17:36It's Bob.
00:17:40Bob!
00:17:41When did you get here?
00:17:43Oh, a little while ago.
00:17:45Well, why didn't you wake me up, silly?
00:17:47Well, I started to, but you were so sound asleep that I just didn't have the heart to.
00:17:53Oh, how about fixing me up some coffee, huh?
00:17:56Okay.
00:18:02Coffee coming up.
00:18:06Well, now that I'm awake, how about a kiss hello?
00:18:10Hi, Sis.
00:18:11Sorry I couldn't get here in time for the party.
00:18:14Oh, it was nothing.
00:18:19Tell me all about school, Bob.
00:18:26You ever bum one of your cigarettes?
00:18:27Help yourself.
00:18:31What's the matter?
00:18:33Something wrong?
00:18:37Bob, you didn't quit school, did you?
00:18:39No.
00:18:40But it's something I've been wanting to talk about.
00:18:43But why, Bob?
00:18:44Aren't you happy there?
00:18:46Are you in trouble?
00:18:48No.
00:18:50No, it's nothing like that.
00:18:55Sure, I want to go on with college.
00:18:58I even had a couple of my paintings in an exhibition this semester.
00:19:02But look, I know how hard you work, and I know what it costs to keep me going.
00:19:06Look, you've done so much for me already.
00:19:08It just isn't fair to keep taking away from yourself and giving me.
00:19:13Sis, I'm going to get a job.
00:19:16You know the right people.
00:19:18You've got enough dough to put your brother through college twice.
00:19:23Put your brother through college twice.
00:19:26You know the right people.
00:19:28Listen to me, Bob.
00:19:30I'm going to get a job.
00:19:32You know the right people.
00:19:34Listen to me, Bob.
00:19:36You're not giving up school.
00:19:38Not with your future.
00:19:40I never had a chance for one, but I'm seeing that you do.
00:19:43But the money.
00:19:46I can't let you do it.
00:19:49I've made up my mind.
00:19:52Everything will be taken care of.
00:19:56Ann, who is this Mr.
00:19:59Who?
00:20:02I'll go unpack.
00:20:12But who's Markie, and who was it I found on the couch in the living room when I came...
00:20:15Wait a minute, kid. Slow down.
00:20:17You're throwing questions at me like I was on a quiz show.
00:20:20I'm sorry.
00:20:21It's just that I was upset coming in like that.
00:20:23Why don't you relax, Bob?
00:20:25So Ann had a little party.
00:20:27I was there with a few friends.
00:20:29We even hung around waiting for you to come home.
00:20:32Maybe it's just as well I didn't.
00:20:38You picked yourself up a cute little imagination since you were home last.
00:20:42Ann works hard trying to put you through college.
00:20:45Figures you deserve it.
00:20:47Maybe someday you'll make it up to her.
00:20:49I'm thinking about quitting college.
00:20:52She can't be making more than $60 or $75 a week at the most.
00:20:58How can she do everything on that and live?
00:21:01Maybe I shouldn't tell you this because it's, well, sort of a surprise.
00:21:06But Ann did say something about a new act, a little specialty routine that's going into a club.
00:21:11It'll mean another $25 a week.
00:21:15Rita, who's Markie?
00:21:19A friend, kid. Just a friend.
00:21:28Stripes become you, Raymond.
00:21:30Must keep you from getting too lonesome for home.
00:21:33Your jokes are going to have you laughing yourself to death someday, friend.
00:21:44What gets you up so early in the morning, insomnia?
00:21:46Let's call it ambition.
00:21:49You shove Weasley up your ass.
00:21:51I'm not going to let that happen.
00:21:53Let's call it ambition.
00:21:56You shove Weasley to those high school kids?
00:22:02A man's got to make a living these days, Jonathan.
00:22:05With me, a buck's a buck.
00:22:08Take you, for instance.
00:22:11A view overlooking the city.
00:22:14Custom-made furniture.
00:22:16A different suit three times a day.
00:22:19You're a big man, Jonathan.
00:22:21A big man.
00:22:23I was thinking maybe I might be your neighbor one of these days.
00:22:26You just have to learn to crawl before you can walk, Markie.
00:22:29Like you did?
00:22:30Listen, Markie.
00:22:31You pull another deal like this last one,
00:22:33and the narcotic boys will be barking on your tail like a pack of bloodhounds.
00:22:36That's my worry, not yours.
00:22:41When it comes to being in front of the gun,
00:22:43I am always there, not you.
00:22:45So I appreciate your loyalty.
00:22:48That's why I trust you.
00:22:49It's things like this that make it very difficult for the margin man.
00:22:52Like myself.
00:22:53Stuff it, roll the stuff in, prices go up.
00:22:55You're telling me that because of this caper in the news,
00:22:57it's going to cost me more dough?
00:23:00Let's say $25 a can for each case of fresh, ripely picked tomatoes.
00:23:06Talk like it was a chain store.
00:23:08I take the major risks.
00:23:09And it's only honest that I share in the profits.
00:23:14What can I do?
00:23:16You got me over a case of tomatoes.
00:23:19Excuse me.
00:23:21Hello?
00:23:23Oh, yes, Miller.
00:23:25When?
00:23:28I had nearly $10,000 riding that shipment.
00:23:30Couldn't you do anything?
00:23:31All right, all right.
00:23:32Just keep out of sight.
00:23:33I'll contact you later.
00:23:35Trouble, maybe?
00:23:36Yeah.
00:23:37Miller was hijacked last night, coming in from Arizona.
00:23:40Some other outfit must have gotten wind of it.
00:23:43Are you sure Miller wasn't the wind?
00:23:46I hear tell he'll hold hands with anybody that'll drop over 50 cents in his palm.
00:23:51Even the cops.
00:23:53I find out, I'll call you.
00:23:55Return the favor.
00:23:57Take it out and trade.
00:23:59At the old prices.
00:24:12Raymond, I want you to pay Miller a little extra.
00:24:14Raymond, I want you to pay Miller a little visit.
00:24:17Be real sociable.
00:24:18Take him out for an airing.
00:25:45Hey!
00:25:48Oh, a little dragger there.
00:25:50Oh, my God.
00:25:52Oh, my goodness.
00:25:55I'm fine.
00:25:57I'm digging in.
00:25:59Oh, God.
00:26:01I'm gonna die.
00:26:03It feels as if I'm walking on air.
00:26:05See, nothing to it.
00:26:08Oh, a little dragger there.
00:26:10Oh, my God.
00:26:12Oh, my God.
00:26:15Is it market company?
00:26:17Yeah, the business meeting tonight.
00:26:19Male or female?
00:26:21Money.
00:26:35Say, that's beautiful.
00:26:39Something I'd like to do my ballet to.
00:26:41My new concerto.
00:26:44Get in the mood and start from the beginning.
00:26:48I'm gonna die.
00:26:50I'm gonna die!
00:26:52Mateo, I'm gonna die!
00:26:55What's the matter with you?
00:26:57I'm gonna die.
00:26:58I know I'm gonna die.
00:27:00That's the funniest thing I've ever heard in my life.
00:27:04He thinks he's gonna die.
00:27:06That's a scream.
00:27:09Hey, before you leave this world,
00:27:11take a drag.
00:27:12It'll get you there faster.
00:27:18Now I'm in the mood.
00:27:21I wish to be left alone.
00:27:42Oh, my God.
00:28:12Oh, my God.
00:28:42Oh, my God.
00:29:13Oh, my God.
00:29:15Oh, my God.
00:29:42Oh, my God.
00:29:43Oh, my God.
00:29:44Oh, my God.
00:29:45Oh, my God.
00:29:46Oh, my God.
00:29:47Oh, my God.
00:29:48Oh, my God.
00:29:49Oh, my God.
00:29:50Oh, my God.
00:29:51Oh, my God.
00:29:52Oh, my God.
00:29:53Oh, my God.
00:29:54Oh, my God.
00:29:55Oh, my God.
00:29:56Oh, my God.
00:29:57Oh, my God.
00:29:58Oh, my God.
00:29:59Oh, my God.
00:30:00Oh, my God.
00:30:01Oh, my God.
00:30:02Oh, my God.
00:30:03Oh, my God.
00:30:04Oh, my God.
00:30:05Oh, my God.
00:30:06Oh, my God.
00:30:07Oh, my God.
00:30:08Oh, my God.
00:30:09Oh, my God.
00:30:10Oh, my God.
00:30:11Oh, my God.
00:30:12Oh, my God.
00:30:13Oh, my God.
00:30:14Oh, my God.
00:30:15Oh, my God.
00:30:16Oh, my God.
00:30:17Oh, my God.
00:30:18Oh, my God.
00:30:19Oh, my God.
00:30:20Oh, my God.
00:30:21Oh, my God.
00:30:22Oh, my God.
00:30:23Oh, my God.
00:30:24Oh, my God.
00:30:25Oh, my God.
00:30:26Oh, my God.
00:30:27Oh, my God.
00:30:28Oh, my God.
00:30:29Oh, my God.
00:30:30Oh, my God.
00:30:31Oh, my God.
00:30:32Oh, my God.
00:30:33Oh, my God.
00:30:34Oh, my God.
00:30:35Oh, my God.
00:30:36Oh, my God.
00:30:37Oh, my God.
00:30:38Oh, my God.
00:30:39Oh, my God.
00:30:40Oh, my God.
00:30:41Oh, my God.
00:30:42Oh, my God.
00:30:43Oh, my God.
00:30:44Oh, my God.
00:30:45Oh, my God.
00:30:46Oh, my God.
00:30:47Oh, my God.
00:30:48Oh, my God.
00:30:49Oh, my God.
00:30:50Oh, my God.
00:30:51Oh, my God.
00:30:52Oh, my God.
00:30:53Oh, my God.
00:30:54Oh, my God.
00:30:55Oh, my God.
00:30:56Oh, my God.
00:30:57Oh, my God.
00:30:58Oh, my God.
00:30:59Oh, my God.
00:31:00Oh, my God.
00:31:01Oh, my God.
00:31:02Oh, my God.
00:31:03Oh, my God.
00:31:04Oh, my God.
00:31:05Oh, my God.
00:31:06Oh, my God.
00:31:07Oh, my God.
00:31:08Oh, my God.
00:31:09There are lots of things to do.
00:31:10Why don't you come on?
00:31:11I wish I had.
00:31:12But Marky will have something.
00:31:13He'll be outside.
00:31:14Maybe I should tell you, Marky isn't the easiest man in the world to resist.
00:31:20I know what I'm doing.
00:31:21Before you two go, see me in my office.
00:31:35You wanted to see us?
00:31:37Oui.
00:31:39For weeks now, you've both lumbered about like two elephants.
00:31:42The feet, they never left the floor.
00:31:44The bodies, statues, stones.
00:31:47The face, green masks.
00:31:49Cranky, you're lifeless.
00:31:51So I shall be brief.
00:31:53You're fired. Go pick up your checks at the cashier.
00:31:56Why, you...
00:31:57Please do not excite me.
00:31:59Let's not waste time telling him what he can do with his job.
00:32:03Come on.
00:32:04You go, Rita.
00:32:05I'll see you later.
00:32:09Hugo, I'd like to keep my job.
00:32:13No, absolu more, no.
00:32:15But I help support my brother. I send him to college.
00:32:19Brother, mother, mortgage, farm, in court.
00:32:24Always something is being supported.
00:32:27Always somebody is sending somebody someplace.
00:32:30But the answer is still no.
00:32:33I know this man, Markey.
00:32:35I see what he does to people.
00:32:36I feel very sorry for you.
00:32:38Save your sympathy for somebody who needs it.
00:32:47Hi.
00:32:50You're through early today.
00:32:52I'm through, period.
00:32:54What do you mean?
00:32:55Oh, she said I lost one of a girl's best friends.
00:32:58Her job.
00:32:59So now you got a new one.
00:33:01Friend or job?
00:33:03Both.
00:33:04Friend or job?
00:33:06Both. Starting now.
00:33:08You're the boss, friend.
00:33:23Like your new job, beautiful?
00:33:25You'd make a girl like anything, including you.
00:33:34Why don't you take care of the guests?
00:33:36All right.
00:33:41Quiet, everybody, quiet.
00:33:44Music, professor.
00:33:46All right, you generous people.
00:33:48You are here to enjoy yourselves.
00:33:50And I am here to see that you do.
00:33:53For your pleasure, tonight we have a special offering.
00:33:57Some people call it madness.
00:34:00Others, the devil.
00:34:02But if it is the devil, he's helped to send my baby brother to college, hasn't he, Markie?
00:34:08Collect the dough, sweetheart. Never mind the speeches.
00:34:11Two dollars a stick, ladies and gentlemen. Two dollars.
00:34:19One for Markie, one for Annie's brother.
00:34:22Dig into your pocket for that big, beautiful, green stuff called money.
00:34:27Take it easy, Ann. The kid might walk in.
00:34:30Who's working their fingers to the bone? Annie, that's who.
00:34:33You'll be the first to cut up a touch with me.
00:34:35I will.
00:34:48Bobby, where have you been?
00:34:50Little boys shouldn't stay out so late.
00:34:55Bobby, you're rude.
00:34:57Now I know who Markie is.
00:35:00And what he is. And you, too.
00:35:03Blow, kid.
00:35:05Go buy yourself a double malted. Come back tomorrow.
00:35:31A clue. A lead to help crack a case can be a funny thing.
00:35:36Sometimes it doesn't even take much to find.
00:35:39Just someone with enough courage to bring it out in the open.
00:35:43Homicide listened to Hugo's story.
00:35:46Then transferred it over to Captain Hayes in the narcotics division.
00:35:50He's a good guy, isn't he?
00:35:52He's a good guy.
00:35:54He's a good guy.
00:35:56He's a good guy.
00:35:58Captain Hayes and the narcotics division.
00:36:01It was a simple story, but with tragic implications.
00:36:05A story like so many others from so many people.
00:36:08Full of ifs.
00:36:10If only he hadn't been afraid.
00:36:12If only he'd turned Markie in.
00:36:15If only he'd listened to Ann and not fired her.
00:36:18If only Hugo could make a positive identification.
00:36:29You never know. When you least expect things to happen, they happen.
00:36:34From that minute on, Markie started living in a fishbowl.
00:36:38Lieutenants Mason and Tyne had a string on him 24 hours a day.
00:36:42They got up with him in the morning.
00:36:44Followed him around like bloodhounds.
00:36:46And put him to bed at night.
00:36:50And sometimes, they even went visiting.
00:36:57The boys wound up doing plenty of homework on Markie.
00:37:00And it wasn't long before they started adding to their program.
00:37:04Subject, Ann Lester.
00:37:08And we've been living with the guy for a week now, Captain.
00:37:11He's a smart boy.
00:37:13Never oversteps any limits.
00:37:15He's been sticking to the old timers ever since that high school episode.
00:37:19We can pick them up any time.
00:37:21What about his source of income?
00:37:23No score for us yet, Captain.
00:37:25We, um, accidentally got into his apartment.
00:37:28A strictly a mistake.
00:37:30The stuff he gets comes in cans.
00:37:32But unfortunately for us, he'd torn off the label.
00:37:35So all we can do is just sit back and wait till he needs some new stuff.
00:37:39I'm sure he'll be back.
00:37:41I'm sure he'll be back.
00:37:43All we can do is just sit back and wait till he needs some new stuff.
00:37:46We'll keep breathing on him.
00:37:48We've got two things in our favor, time and patience.
00:37:51That's Ann Lester, girl, Captain.
00:37:53The one whose brother was a suicide.
00:37:55What about her?
00:37:57I've been checking with Alexander down at Homicide.
00:37:59There's a gimmick behind that deal somewhere.
00:38:01All through the coroner's inquest, she kept repeating,
00:38:03it's my fault, it's my fault.
00:38:05That's all I could get out of her.
00:38:07She's been on the habit-heavy ever since, with Markie's help.
00:38:10You pick him up, if he passes, it may blow the works.
00:38:13Markie'll have that girl turning cartwheels.
00:38:15She's young and attractive, Captain.
00:38:17You can't tell how much Markie's poured out his little old heart to her.
00:38:21All right, boys, put the bite on him.
00:38:23You got him, boss.
00:38:28Rita, come on!
00:38:30Relax, boys, I'll be with you in a minute.
00:38:32Relax, she says.
00:38:34I'm three years older since she went in to put on her hat.
00:38:36Friend, never rush a woman in any of it.
00:38:40Took you all this time to put that on?
00:38:42I had her curl my feathers.
00:38:44Like it? It's a present from you.
00:38:46You're welcome.
00:38:47Now if the fashion show is over, where are we going?
00:38:49I thought we'd see Anne.
00:38:51She's having a rough time. Blames herself for what happened.
00:38:54She's pretty bitter.
00:38:56Can we console her and, uh, cut up a touch, too?
00:38:59Maybe.
00:39:01Hello? It's Anne, Markie.
00:39:03Oh, I've got the shakes bad.
00:39:05Rita's coming over.
00:39:07Rita's coming over, but it's you I want to see.
00:39:13Thanks, Markie.
00:39:14Come on.
00:39:35Get going.
00:39:44We'll meet again at the next intersection.
00:39:47What'd you do, get lost?
00:39:49Just keep your pants pressed under that wheel, bright boy.
00:39:54Look, friend, I'm a big boy now.
00:39:56I like to go riding with girls. I've got an appointment to keep.
00:39:59That's right. With Mr. Traynor.
00:40:03Well, in that case, how can I argue?
00:40:15Then my tire went flat, and I lost them.
00:40:18If Tank can pick me up, we'll move in on the girls' house.
00:40:21They may have been headed that way.
00:40:23Okay, boss, we'll keep in touch with you.
00:40:34Hey, Tank.
00:40:36What's the matter?
00:40:38I don't know.
00:40:40I don't know.
00:40:43You come along just like a trained seal, Mr. Traynor.
00:40:46What happens, Jonathan?
00:40:48Do I wind up in Santa Monica Bay like Miller?
00:40:51You worried, Markie?
00:40:53Yeah. I never learned to swim.
00:40:56You won't have to. There's no water where you're going.
00:41:00Arizona.
00:41:02Nice dry air, the desert. Good for the health.
00:41:06I want you to roll some stuff in.
00:41:10I guess nobody ever told you, Jonathan, I'm an orphan.
00:41:14Just curious about somebody's big sister, that's all.
00:41:17I wouldn't stay awake at night thinking about it.
00:41:20I've got other plans for the big sister. What do I do?
00:41:24Well, there's a little garage just beyond Isla Bend.
00:41:28When you get there, stop and have your tank filled with gas.
00:41:31You'll also have a slow leak in your spare tire.
00:41:33Have a change of tires.
00:41:35That's pretty clever, Jonathan.
00:41:37When you get back, call me. I'll have Raymond meet you.
00:41:50How about that gas? Do I fill up with ethyl or regular?
00:41:55No, no. Markie plays better than you do.
00:41:58Say, I wonder where Markie is.
00:42:01I don't know.
00:42:03He's not here.
00:42:05I don't know.
00:42:07I don't know.
00:42:09I don't know.
00:42:11I don't know.
00:42:13I don't know.
00:42:15I don't know.
00:42:17I don't know.
00:42:19I don't know.
00:42:21I don't know.
00:42:24That's him.
00:42:29Who are you?
00:42:30Narcotics squad.
00:42:39I'll take that one, chum.
00:42:46Get back with the others.
00:42:49You're making a mistake. We just dropped in.
00:42:52You'll have a chance to explain it downtown.
00:42:55Where's Markie?
00:42:58I asked you where Markie is.
00:43:00I don't know anybody named Markie.
00:43:02Don't make it tough on yourself.
00:43:04Never heard of him.
00:43:06Why the cover-up?
00:43:09Like every room had a forensic.
00:43:12I guess Markie had more important places to go.
00:43:15What about him?
00:43:17What about the girl?
00:43:19Still cutting her baby teeth.
00:43:21Hasn't learned to talk yet.
00:43:23Okay, it's a nice sunny day.
00:43:25Let's all go get a little fresh air.
00:43:37Won't you sit down?
00:43:39Any law against standing?
00:43:41That's your privilege.
00:43:43This may take some time.
00:43:46I'm sure you'll find that more comfortable, Miss Lester.
00:43:49What am I, under a microscope or something?
00:43:51You know you will be turned over to the police
00:43:54and charged with violation of the narcotics law.
00:43:56So my name will be in the papers, the courtroom will be crowded,
00:43:59and when I get out of jail, no one will care.
00:44:01Miss Lester, why did your brother kill himself?
00:44:05That part of my life is my business.
00:44:08Keep out of it.
00:44:10But your future life isn't, Miss Lester. That's ours.
00:44:13Whether I'm in pain or not depends on you.
00:44:15Believe me, we're only trying to help.
00:44:17I don't need anybody's help. I can take care of myself.
00:44:20None of us is infallible. We all make mistakes.
00:44:24The secret is carrying enough not to want to make another one.
00:44:27That means Markey.
00:44:29I told you before, I don't know anybody named Markey.
00:44:31We do, Miss Lester.
00:44:33Do you have any idea what sticking to a man like that will mean to you?
00:44:37The Markeys in this world aren't very human, Miss Lester.
00:44:40They use people to get what they want out of life.
00:44:43And when the people are no longer useful to them,
00:44:46they walk away from them.
00:44:48By then it's too late. You're destroyed.
00:44:50Nothing like that will ever happen to me.
00:44:52That's an old story to us, Miss Lester.
00:44:55It happens without you even knowing it.
00:44:58They all start out the way you have.
00:45:00It seems fun. You get your kicks out of life.
00:45:02You forget your troubles.
00:45:04But the troubles are still there, so you try something else.
00:45:07Morphine. Opium, maybe.
00:45:09And there's always a Markey around with a smile and a helping hand.
00:45:14Then he takes the stuff away from you because it costs money to get.
00:45:18But by that time you can't stop.
00:45:20So you have to pay for it in many ways.
00:45:23I don't believe you.
00:45:26This girl was 23 when this picture was taken a year and a half ago.
00:45:30Would you like to meet her?
00:45:37Nathan.
00:45:56Take another look.
00:45:58You wouldn't believe it was the same girl, would you?
00:46:07There's no hope for her anymore.
00:46:10You're just trying to frighten me.
00:46:15Have the car brought around.
00:46:18Maybe I can change your mind.
00:46:21I don't want to go to jail.
00:46:24Maybe I can change your mind.
00:46:35Hello, Gladys.
00:46:37What do you want, copper?
00:46:39Just want you to meet someone.
00:46:41We've known Gladys a long time.
00:46:43Haven't we, Gladys?
00:46:45The feeling ain't mutual.
00:46:47Do me a favor, will you, Gladys?
00:46:49Show her your arm.
00:46:51What is this? A beauty contest?
00:46:53Come on, sweetheart, you should be used to it.
00:46:57Okay, boys, take a good look.
00:47:00Enjoy yourselves.
00:47:02That's what happens when you take the needle.
00:47:04All right, let's go.
00:47:15This is where Gladys lived.
00:47:17It's what happens when you get down to boots and shoes.
00:47:20But every penny goes to fill a needle or syringe.
00:47:33Here's where Gladys will eventually wind up.
00:47:37Take a look. You're safe.
00:47:39They're always safe on the outside of a psychopathic ward.
00:47:42Go on, take a look.
00:47:50I didn't say anything to them. I didn't...
00:48:07This is the end of the road, Miss Lester.
00:48:09When you get to this stage, there is no other world.
00:48:21This girl was lucky.
00:48:23She committed suicide.
00:48:25She, too, knew a Markey.
00:48:27Her name could have been Ann Lester.
00:48:29Could have, but it wasn't.
00:48:39Not much fun, was it, Miss Lester?
00:48:42No, it wasn't.
00:48:44It was a lot of fun.
00:48:46It was a lot of fun.
00:48:48Not much fun, was it, Miss Lester?
00:48:51You seem to think it was.
00:48:53What you saw was your future.
00:48:55We want to save you and all the others from one like it.
00:48:58Help us and you help them.
00:49:00Very touching.
00:49:02We're after the man who supplies Markey. That's our only chance.
00:49:05If I ever get around to meeting him, I'll call you and introduce you.
00:49:09Too bad you didn't think of that two weeks ago.
00:49:12Your brother might be alive today.
00:49:14All right, the floor show's over.
00:49:16What are we waiting for?
00:49:18Send the matron in.
00:49:20Yes, sir.
00:49:24Take her away.
00:49:32She'll crack.
00:49:34Ann Lester, along with the others, pleaded guilty
00:49:37and was sentenced to 60 days in the Los Angeles County Jail.
00:49:41This was a new world.
00:49:43Strange, bewildering, a little frightening.
00:49:46The new look, exchange for a drab one.
00:49:49A number instead of a name.
00:49:51A picture to mark her for future identification.
00:50:07For the next 60 days, this was to be her home, her life, her future.
00:50:13Or the end of it, with nothing to keep her company
00:50:16but four bare walls, a window, and cold steel bars.
00:50:3360 days and every day the same.
00:50:37Up when darkness dies, to bed while it's still day.
00:50:41The same monotonous routine.
00:50:49The same thoughts, bitterness, remorse.
00:50:53The feeling she killed her brother,
00:50:55but too ashamed to admit it, even to her own self.
00:50:59So Bob is dead, and you've killed him.
00:51:02The only thing that matters is that he's alive.
00:51:06The one you ever really loved.
00:51:09You took and destroyed it.
00:51:11He was so young, and you never gave him a chance to live.
00:51:15He's dead, and you killed him.
00:51:17You killed him.
00:51:19Kid killer. You're a kid killer.
00:51:22No, no!
00:51:24Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:27No!
00:51:29Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:3260 days and 60 nights of the same thing,
00:51:35making its way into her heart and mind.
00:51:38Every face seeming to look at her the same way.
00:51:41Every voice accusing her of the same thing.
00:51:44Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:46Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:48Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:50Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:52Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:54Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:56Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:51:58Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:52:00Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:52:02Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:52:03Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:52:05Kid killer. Kid killer.
00:52:07No! No! It isn't true! It isn't true!
00:52:10What isn't true?
00:52:17You better calm down. You'll wind up in psycho.
00:52:34Come on.
00:52:52Kid killer!
00:52:54Kid killer!
00:52:57Kid killer!
00:52:59Kid killer! Kid killer!
00:53:01Kill her.
00:53:02Can't kill her.
00:53:03You can't kill her.
00:53:04Can't kill her.
00:53:09I didn't like it.
00:53:11Are you all right Ann?
00:53:16A crime.
00:53:21Every day it was the same and the nights, the nights became
00:53:26living nightmares.
00:53:27Can't kill her.
00:53:28Can't kill her.
00:53:28Can't kill her.
00:53:30from North Carolina Dept of Police.
00:53:31Keep killing.
00:53:34Keep killing.
00:54:15Let me out! Let me out! Let me out!
00:54:36The mind can only stand so much conflict and turmoil within itself.
00:54:41Joan Lester was no different than anyone else.
00:54:44Transferred to the county jail hospital, she was given a chance to rest and receive proper treatment.
00:54:49Then, other things began to disturb her.
00:55:05You sure nobody's been here to see me?
00:55:08Nobody.
00:55:10Dan, I've seen lots of girls like yourself come and go.
00:55:14First, it's 60 days.
00:55:16Then it's six months in and six months out.
00:55:20If you add it up, it becomes half a lifetime.
00:55:31The Marquis in this world aren't very human, Miss Lester.
00:55:34They use people to get what they want out of life.
00:55:38A guy like me, who might even go places.
00:55:41I know a lot of people. Right kind.
00:55:44And when the people are no longer able to serve their purpose, the Marquis walk out on them.
00:55:49You might even call me a sort of Santa Claus.
00:55:52I could turn your life into a nice, big, beautiful sleigh ride.
00:55:57By that time, it's too late. You're destroyed.
00:56:07This should be a big day for you, Ann.
00:56:09What's so big about it? That after 50 days in the snake pit, you finally opened the doors?
00:56:13Well, now that you're out, what are you going to do?
00:56:15Me? I'm going to the beauty shop and try to look my age again.
00:56:19Then I'm going to take a bath.
00:56:21Think the smell of this place will ever come off of me?
00:56:30Welcome home, beautiful.
00:56:32Hello, Marquis.
00:56:33Must have been a good girl getting those 10 days out.
00:56:36How else can a girl act in a snake pit like that?
00:56:39We have a lot to talk over. 50 whole days.
00:56:42And nights.
00:56:45That is a real noble thing you did, not talking. I appreciate it.
00:56:50And a friend I do business with appreciates it, too.
00:56:53I didn't do it for him, for you, for nobody else but little me.
00:56:57I've got lots of life to make up for.
00:57:00The only thing I'm interested in from now on is money.
00:57:04You learned a lot in 50 days.
00:57:06That isn't all I learned.
00:57:08I may even be able to get my hands on some of that money.
00:57:12Big money, Marquis.
00:57:14They do? Let you out at night to roam the streets?
00:57:17No. I decided to become real domestic.
00:57:22Stay at home every night. Meet lots of people.
00:57:25The profitable kind.
00:57:27That's very interesting.
00:57:30What's the pitch on this?
00:57:32I'll give it. I'll work the angle myself.
00:57:35Compared to this deal, you're fooling with nickels and dimes.
00:57:40There's a certain party here from the east.
00:57:42Fronting for a big syndicate.
00:57:45At the moment, they're looking to tie into some of that stuff.
00:57:48But I don't think that's the real purpose.
00:57:51I think they're planning to open a branch office.
00:57:53That's a big mouthful.
00:57:56I got it from the mouth the words were put into.
00:58:00She became my roommate.
00:58:03I don't think my man in the front office is going to like that.
00:58:07He may not have anything to say about it.
00:58:10Maybe we should arrange an introduction.
00:58:13I said forget it.
00:58:15Simmer down, little girl.
00:58:17We're partners, remember?
00:58:20You could arrange for me to meet this party.
00:58:23Then I might convince him to do business with Traynor.
00:58:28From the way my roommate spoke,
00:58:30her friend was trained to take, not ask.
00:58:33You introduce me. We might all get in on the taking.
00:58:36I'll call her.
00:58:38She's got the influence.
00:58:44I don't usually talk business at this late hour,
00:58:47but who am I to turn a deaf ear to an honest deal?
00:58:51Since you are my guest, Mr. Gabriel,
00:58:53wouldn't you be more comfortable without your hat?
00:58:56I like it with my hat on.
00:58:58Keeps the draft out of my head.
00:59:00What's the proposition, Mr. Gabriel?
00:59:02Please, Markie.
00:59:04How do I know I can trust you two?
00:59:06Her, I know.
00:59:08She took a rap with a couple acquaintances of mine.
00:59:11The dolls I know don't give the nod unless it's on the level.
00:59:14I wouldn't have suggested coming here
00:59:16unless I knew the trick could be turned, Mr. Gabriel.
00:59:19Okay, sister, you say so.
00:59:22But you blow the deal and Mr. Romero won't like it.
00:59:25Romero?
00:59:27You heard the name right. We got no secrets.
00:59:30Everything open and above board, right on top of the table.
00:59:34Backed by cash on the line.
00:59:38The delivery of merchandise.
00:59:4175 grand.
00:59:46The cash isn't hot, Mr. Treanor.
00:59:49We keep it in the deep freeze.
00:59:51You can take it to any bank.
00:59:55I apologize for my thoughts, Mr. Gabriel.
00:59:58That's all right. I understand.
01:00:01When you lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas.
01:00:05Now, what about the stuff?
01:00:07I, uh...
01:00:09Excuse me.
01:00:11Hello?
01:00:13Yes.
01:00:16Uh-huh.
01:00:25Well, this rather upsets me.
01:00:34Are you absolutely sure?
01:00:40All right.
01:00:42Forgive me.
01:00:46My butler and right-hand man, Ray,
01:00:48money's been down taking a little inventory at the warehouse.
01:00:51I was hoping to supply you without any delay,
01:00:53but now it seems I don't have that much stuff on hand at the moment.
01:00:57Give me 12 to 18 hours and I'll deliver.
01:00:59What do you say, Marty?
01:01:00Maybe sooner.
01:01:02Where do I pick up?
01:01:03Well, I'll call you.
01:01:05We'll go together.
01:01:06I'll be waiting.
01:01:11See you around, baby.
01:01:14If this deal works out, the boss may give you a nice present.
01:01:17Make it a mink coat.
01:01:20You roll the stuff in.
01:01:22This will be in your pocket tomorrow.
01:01:30I want to see you alone.
01:01:32Wait out in the hall, beautiful.
01:01:34Some things are private. You don't mind.
01:01:36Just as long as they pay off.
01:01:53Tomorrow night, this time, we'll be celebrating.
01:01:56What's my cut?
01:01:58We split five grand.
01:02:01It's going to be lonesome driving all the way wherever you're going alone.
01:02:07You make it tough for a man to stay honest.
01:02:10Who's more important, you or me?
01:02:13You.
01:02:15You're the one who's more important.
01:02:18You make it tough for a man to stay honest.
01:02:21Who's more important, the trainer or me?
01:02:23Who brought in the deal, and who's your partner?
01:02:28Mark, you should do a little more thinking about yourself.
01:02:31What's happened to your ambition?
01:02:33The things the trainer has and you want.
01:02:35What are you driving at?
01:02:37Your ambition.
01:02:39In my lack of conscience, we may get a few connections.
01:02:43Where are we going?
01:02:45Arizona.
01:02:49I think I've been underestimating your talents.
01:02:58Hello, Raymond.
01:03:01It's getting a bit chilly waiting around for you.
01:03:03You should have dropped dead from pneumonia.
01:03:05Yeah, now I remember.
01:03:07I was in Chicago about five years ago.
01:03:09I was on homicide.
01:03:11I picked you up just when you were about to give Big Sam a bath.
01:03:15What concrete?
01:03:16I don't forget you, Mason.
01:03:18Please, Raymond, the name is Gabriel.
01:03:20Mr. Gabriel.
01:03:22You know, your boss and I have just made a deal.
01:03:24I'm about to take over his warehouse.
01:03:27Since I'm a stranger in town, maybe you'd better show the way.
01:03:34Just when I was leaving, these jerks drove in with two truckloads of canned tomatoes.
01:03:38But the real ones.
01:03:40Yeah, I'll be here all night unpacking and counting this stuff.
01:03:43Okay, trainer.
01:03:47Nicely done, Raymond.
01:03:49You missed your vocation. You should have been an actor.
01:03:52Then they do put on plays where you're going, don't they?
01:03:55Shall we start?
01:04:44Nice cozy little place you got here.
01:04:47I'd say it has its good points.
01:04:49Raymond.
01:04:51Raymond.
01:05:14Huh?
01:05:20My boss will never forgive me anything goes wrong with this setup.
01:05:24We all have to take our chances, Mr. Gabriel.
01:05:27What fun would there be in winning if we didn't?
01:05:36I thought I told you to leave her out of this.
01:05:38You're thinking for too many people, Jonathan.
01:05:41Whatever she's in, I'm in.
01:05:43We're partners on this deal.
01:05:46Settle your problems on your own time. I'm here for business.
01:05:51Hello? Yes?
01:05:54Go ahead, please.
01:05:56Hello? Yes, this is trainer.
01:06:03Thank you very much. I appreciate your calling.
01:06:07That was Mr. Romero, Mr. Gabriel.
01:06:10Only he doesn't know any Mr. Gabriel.
01:06:12What is this?
01:06:14Why don't you ask her? It was she that dreamed up Gabriel.
01:06:19That wasn't a very nice thing to do.
01:06:30Keep him covered.
01:06:36Keep him covered.
01:07:06Get him out of here. Come on.
01:07:37Thanks, Ann, for all your help.
01:07:40I don't think we'll have to worry about filling in this blank space with another picture of you.
01:07:44No, Captain, but it's you I have to thank.
01:07:47And Lieutenants Mason and Time.
01:07:50It hasn't only been my fight alone, but everybody's.
