(5.00 / 1 vote)Now how the hell
should I know?
You said
he was distraught.
I didn't say
I knew why.
I mean, you don't look
too happy, either.
Will you excuse me?
That's the fiance of the
deceased. Miss Leonore Lemmon.
The one on the end is a
houseguest. Robert Condon.
The other two are friends,
Carol Van Ronkel and Bill Bliss.
Bliss found the body.
What time the party start?
Just after midnight.
He woke up, came downstairs,
said good night
and went back to bed.
The coroner's ruling it
indicated suicide.
Patterson.
Yeah.
The fiance said
he was depressed.
Also predicted
he would do it.
He went upstairs, she told her
pals he was going to shoot himself.
So, why didn't she
stop him?
Maybe she believed
what she saw on TV.
On TV?
What, him?
Faster than
a speeding bullet.
Hmm.
Oh, hi.
I have new information.
Good.
I went to the office
on Rossmore.
The office is occupied
by an orthodontist.
You can imagine
my consternation.
We're setting up
in a better location.
It's right off Wilshire,
adding an operative.
But delays, phone lines.
So, the time being...
We have reason to believe that my
wife continues to engage in illicit
carnal relations.
I'm gonna
take care of the mail.
Good.
Mr. Sinclair.
We did check into that and there
was nothing we came up with.
Yes, well, in that regard,
I blame myself.
How's that?
a change in my demeanor
and curtailed her activities
accordingly.
She still at
Western Costume?
I drop her off there
every morning.
What transpires
after that...
All right, the fee is...
50 a day.
Three-day minimum,
in advance.
We'll do everything we can.
It's not right,
you know.
His money.
He's nuts.
Don't give me grief, okay? Nobody
said you had to stay in Van Nuys.
You're the one
that wanted a backyard.
What did I say?
Disneyland.
He like it?
Russ took him on a canoe,
the Indian Village.
Seemed to go all right.
Russ... Russell.
Rusty...
Am I supposed to
ask your permission?
I just want to make sure
his intentions are honorable.
Keeping busy?
Yeah. May be
something big.
You don't believe me?
Every time.
Where's Evan?
What's going on?
That actor who shot himself,
the one who plays Superman.
What about him?
It's made him
very upset.
He told you that?
Every kid on the block
is upset.
Scout. Come on. Your old
pops is taking you to school.
What's on your mind,
Scout?
Nothing.
Nothing?
Nothing.
You know,
things you see on TV,
you know, someone's
a cowboy or a spaceman,
it's just pretend, right?
I know.
You remember
I remember.
Okay.
Hey, what's this?
I don't know.
Well, why don't you
find out?
Do you like that?
Kind of.
All right, come on,
turn the knobs.
...2:
00 in the morning, I'm thinking,maybe I ain't the best PI in California,
but if I catch
a one-eyed Negro Jew
sneaking into a house in Beverly
Hills, it's time to pack it in.
Davis is
a very talented performer.
What'd Rick do?
What's the matter, Ace? Alpha Beta
not hiring any more parking lot guards?
Not with you moonlighting,
Chuck.
Study this gentleman.
Observe him closely.
The haircut, the getup.
Nobody told him the world
don't need two Ralph Meekers.
Listen to him, kid.
And don't start smoking,
either. Filthy habit.
This isn't
show business, pal.
It's just a job.
Let's get out of here.
I'm still eating,
Chuck.
Come on.
Sweetheart, check please.
Hey, Del.
Rick working you hard?

Well, that's
real detective work.
