Shall we get started?

You have that picture of Miller?

Use this instead.

How did you know about Miller?

He worked with DeVries.

Pulling illegal U-turns?

He didn't have a record

till two weeks ago.

Long before that.

Not according to our files.

No. According to our files.

If you want my help,

tell me what's going on.

A criminal's come to your city.

You've been assigned

to help me find him.

If it's that simple...

why's the Bureau

sending you down here?

You don't have

anything on Miller...

because he's always

changing his identity.

You didn't have anything

on DeVries...

until you caught up

with him as DeVries.

Before that,

he was Arvin J. Lusk.

Before that, William Butler.

Miller does the same thing.

This is the closest I've been.

He's got to be stopped

before he moves again.

We'll take my car.

Let's go.

Bureau must be paying

pretty good these days.

Pretty good.

Mind me asking how much

one of these costs?

How much?

I don't know.

You don't know.

What did you do, steal it?

Hey, can you turn that down?

Order up on number three.

One coffee, right?

Senator Holt is drawing a crowd

wherever he goes.

The senator, who was expected

to announce his candidacy...

for president

in Los Angeles tomorrow...

is in town to dedicate a new

branch of Child Help U.S.A.

The work of this organization...

in bettering the lives

of young people here...

stands as an example...

that government

can and should serve...

the needs of the small

as well as the giant.

Senator, is it true...

you'll be announcing

your campaign plans Tuesday?

You'll have to wait

till next Tuesday.

Bye, guys. Thank you.

And now Capitol Hill.

An old ship

is making new waves...

It's your table, honey.

Don't look at me.

How far is St. Joseph's

from here?

About a mile.

Why?

Which direction?

We'll start up here

and work back.

You're calling the shots now?

I know how the suspect operates.

There's little time.

How do you know Miller

was at the hospital?

A hunch.

What, was he visiting DeVries?

Just tell me. Let's cut out

the Twenty Questions.

We're on the same side.

Miller came from the hospital.

He was there to see DeVries.

That's illuminating.

That solves everything.

Miller doesn't have a chance.

Why would he kill a guy...

for a lousy hundred dollars

and a radio?

'Cause he likes it.

He sees something he wants,

he steals it.

Something gets in his way,

he kills it.

And right now,

he's hiding out in your city.

You're talking about Miller.

Sounds more like DeVries.

Could you be a little confused?

So, you impressed?

I'm impressed.

That's because this car

makes an impression.

The question is,

do I trade in my Mercedes...
