Bullitt Page #3

- We're starting the first one right now.

- You'd better bring me another one.

Mayo, please.

- This is the subclavian.

- Here's your wipe, Doctor.

Thank you, Deanne.

What are his chances?

No more than 50-50.

We stopped the hemorrhaging, but they

got some of the major blood vessels.

Thank you, Doctor.

How is he doing?

Holding.

Stanton?

Okay. He's sleeping now.

I want to talk to you.

I got the report back from the lab.

Nothing at the hotel.

How come they got in?

Ross got to the door,

unhooked the chain from the inside.

He let the killers in himself?

Why would he do a thing like that?

I'm waiting to ask him.

What about the setup?

What do you think about that?

Shotgun and a backup man. Professionals.

Yep.

I had to call Chalmers.

And?

It didn't go down too good.

It's the main event for him.

You know,

the Senate Subcommittee hearing.

He can't produce the big surprise

he promised everyone.

He may try to make up some mileage

by laying it on us.

Play it by the book from now on.

Does Chalmers run the case, or do I?

All I'm interested in is results.

Do whatever you think is best.

I'll try to back you up.

Excuse me, sir.

Are you the policeman who hasn't eaten?

Yes, ma'am.

- Thank you.

- Surely.

Where is he?

How is he, Doctor?

As well as can be expected.

He's still under the anesthesia.

I'm Walter Chalmers.

Is there any possibility of my getting

a deposition from Ross before Monday?

That's impossible to say at this time.

He may remain in shock.

I thank you for doing all you can, Doctor.

Get the supervisor.

Now, what went wrong, Lieutenant?

- Who else knew where he was?

- What?

Who else knew where he was?

What are you implying?

They knew where to look for him

and they used your name to get in.

Are you suggesting

I disclosed his whereabouts?

Somebody did.

And it didn't come from us.

That's hardly the issue.

Well, it certainly is.

I've got an officer with a family.

And he's shot up pretty bad.

And I've got a witness who can't talk.

I want to know about Ross.

What was the deal you made with him?

Deal?

Lieutenant, don't try

to evade the responsibility.

In your parlance, you blew it.

You knew the significance

of his testimony.

Yet you failed to take

adequate measures to protect him.

So to you it was a job. No more.

Were it more, and you had the dedication

I was led to believe...

You believe what you want.

You work your side of the street

and I'll work mine.

Lieutenant, I shall personally

officiate at your public crucifixion...

...if Ross doesn't recover

during the course of the hearing...

...so I can at least present his deposition.

And, I assure you, I shall not suffer
