Speaker 1: A note to the listener. The following story contains some
Speaker 1: adult content and language. Hey, you can't. And I was there,
Speaker 1: calmed down. He drained her, and then he cleaned her,
Speaker 1: and then he cut her up in that please Doddy
Speaker 1: Adler Harrison killed Madeleine Marie Evans, God damn it. And
Speaker 1: the bastard let her Shaw helped him cover it all up.
Speaker 1: He covered it all up. That's some of a bitch.
Speaker 1: Wiped me right and the eye and said there wasn't
Speaker 1: a party. He said she was never in his house.
Speaker 1: We gotta do something. At point, this slowed down a minute.
Speaker 1: I mean not me, I mean not we. Obviously I
Speaker 1: can't do anything. I'm not a copy but you you
Speaker 1: gotta do something. Call someone, Hank Perkins or Slatsky. He
Speaker 1: called money for all I care. But we've got to
Speaker 1: get back to that house before they get rid of it. Hey,
Speaker 1: what to stop? Huh? Just stop for a second. Settled down,
Speaker 1: getting all worked up again? Of course I'm worked up bad.
Speaker 1: It's all right there. What is the drums? The pad
Speaker 1: proved nothing? Of course they do they. I need you
Speaker 1: to stop talking now because I need to ask you
Speaker 1: some real questions, real questions. Stop talking, just drink your
Speaker 1: coffee and settled down. Okay, Now you said he looked
Speaker 1: you in the eye and lie to you. Do you
Speaker 1: mean Sean? Yes, Sean. And this was in his house.
Speaker 1: Of course, it was in his house. And how did
Speaker 1: you happen to be at Shaw's house? I asked to
Speaker 1: meet with him to ask him some questions, and Adler arranged.
Speaker 1: It was Adler there when you met with Shaw. Yes,
Speaker 1: he was there. He's always there. And this is why
Speaker 1: was Adler there? Because Adler is Shaw's doctor. Apparently he's
Speaker 1: sick with what. I don't know. I didn't ask, I
Speaker 1: didn't care. What what? What's the problem? Okay? I can
Speaker 1: tell you that the first problem is reasonable doubt. This
Speaker 1: prescription pad belongs to Adler Harrison, who treats his patient,
Speaker 1: Leonard Shaw, in the privacy of his own home. There
Speaker 1: was no reason for this pad not to be their hank.
Speaker 1: And what about the drugs? What about them? They're not illegal?
Speaker 1: And now that we've established that Adler has every right
Speaker 1: to be there, the same rules applied to the drugs.
Speaker 1: Those were the same drugs that do you think that
Speaker 1: Marlin Evans was the only person that ever happened in
Speaker 1: a system she's been going almost two years, Hank. There
Speaker 1: have definitely been other people who have taken in ad
Speaker 1: ministry those drugs since then. There was some unconscious girl
Speaker 1: in that movie because of those drugs. I saw what
Speaker 1: they were doing in that girl. He's making pornography. If
Speaker 1: he's not selling it, then all y'all got is a
Speaker 1: guy who makes a bunch of racy home movies and
Speaker 1: nothing more. And you don't even have witnesses, any participants,
Speaker 1: any victims. So even if you're right about that, you
Speaker 1: have no way of proving that it's all on my camp,
Speaker 1: my edge. That's not proof, Hank. And none of this
Speaker 1: is amissible. Come on, you have a conversation with Shaw,
Speaker 1: excuse yourself to use the bathroom, and then sneak around
Speaker 1: his house taking pictures, and then you remove what you
Speaker 1: think it's evidence without probable cause you didn't witness a crime,
Speaker 1: You're not in a public place, you didn't even have
Speaker 1: a warrant. Technically, you lifted a doctor's description pad and
Speaker 1: his patients pain medication. This isn't a joke. Oh, I
Speaker 1: wasn't trying to be funny. I was trying to be realistic.
Speaker 1: You've got nothing here. I'm sorry. If I were you,
Speaker 1: I'd just be glad he didn't find you snooping. No
Speaker 1: one was awakened and was very careful not to be seen.
Speaker 1: What you're not making sense, Hank? I thought you said
Speaker 1: you were there to ask him some questions. Was the
Speaker 1: first time I thought you said? Advert was there tonight? No?
Speaker 1: That wasn't tonight, Hank. What did Leonard Shaw know that
Speaker 1: you were in his house tonight? Now, Jesus rights, Hank,
Speaker 1: tell me you are trust passing on his property. I
Speaker 1: can't tell you that. You better try and tell me that, Hanker,
Speaker 1: because from where I'm sitting forget thinking straight you are?
Speaker 1: You are not thinking at all. You You've got to
Speaker 1: stop all this. Please. Don't you want to go home? Huh?
Speaker 1: Do you want to see your girls? Of course? I
Speaker 1: want to see my girl there. You better wake up, Hank.
Speaker 1: I'm wide awake. The hell you are you barging here
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night, hooting, hollering like a
Speaker 1: crime has been committed. A crime was committed, not by
Speaker 1: anyone you accused. The one committing that crime is you.
Speaker 1: You don't believe me, my own partner doesn't believe me.
Speaker 1: We're not partners anymore. Hanker turned up goddamn thing off. Now, Hank,
Speaker 1: you broke the law. You're not a bump the law.
Speaker 1: You even telling me that you broke in there? Don't
Speaker 1: you understand that I can place you under arrest from
Speaker 1: what you just admitted to me. But you won't, won't
Speaker 1: I why huh? Because you're my friend and I'm supposed
Speaker 1: to turn a blind eye and ignore my duty as
Speaker 1: a member of the Los Angeles Police Department. You won't
Speaker 1: because you know I'm right. Hey, No, I am right.
Speaker 1: It's all there in that damn house. And if pads
Speaker 1: and drugs, I may not have have to put it all together,
Speaker 1: I will keep going until I can find it on. Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm warning you no more of this foolishness voices, and
Speaker 1: if I have to beat a confession at of him
Speaker 1: to put it all together, so help me, God, I will.
Speaker 1: They're Dotty for the corfet from Vot's Popular and the
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Harold. This is the Angel of Vine my
Speaker 1: old heart. Hanking in no ground because my Angela's Phyllis
Speaker 1: told us early on that her mother had kicked hank
Speaker 1: out of the house and over the past two months
Speaker 1: I listened carefully to try and pinpoint the moment it happened.
Speaker 1: I didn't expect that Hank would record a knockdown drag
Speaker 1: out with Lois, but at least some indication somewhere that
Speaker 1: it had happened. He never did ed. Asking him if
Speaker 1: he wanted to go back home was the only time
Speaker 1: the subject was ever mentioned, And based on Hank's current
Speaker 1: state of mind, I have to say that I wouldn't
Speaker 1: want him around either. I was thrown by his recklessness.
Speaker 1: I asked myself, when did Hank Briggs get to the
Speaker 1: point of beating anything out of anyone? So I assumed
Speaker 1: if anyone was going to take a beating, it would
Speaker 1: have been Adler. I was wrong. Yeah, the Great Room
Speaker 1: guard it. I knew where it is. Thanks, good afternoon,
Speaker 1: Mr Seawan. We've got some more talking to do. When here,
Speaker 1: I was thinking I would enjoy this flavorless luncheon piece,
Speaker 1: Ndla didn't mention a reprise. I would have hoped to
Speaker 1: see you in a Virgin World Sport card well at
Speaker 1: the very least, and Ascott ad luck he's not here.
Speaker 1: I just watched some leaf and he just let you
Speaker 1: saunder in here. I wanted to make sure we have
Speaker 1: some good old fashiona load time? Is that so good?
Speaker 1: Damn right? Oh, I'm damn right now? Am I? Wow? Look?
Speaker 1: Who grew a pair of balls since the last time?
Speaker 1: Cut that ship out? What do you want? You lied
Speaker 1: to me, and you told me there was no party
Speaker 1: here that night. For the love of Christ. Again, of
Speaker 1: course that was a party here. There's always a party here.
Speaker 1: You knew I was lying to you. You weren't even
Speaker 1: greater buffoon than I'd imagine if you didn't know that, Yes,
Speaker 1: there was a party. No, I didn't know your dead girl.
Speaker 1: There are we done? I don't have time for this.
Speaker 1: I don't have time for you now. Can I go
Speaker 1: back to my slot? Now? How long have you protected
Speaker 1: that savage? I run a movie studio in Hollywood, California.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to be a lot more specific than that.
Speaker 1: I know what Adler does in this house. Didn't I
Speaker 1: tell you the last time that you would leave here
Speaker 1: in a squad car? Hang it up? Hanging get up?
Speaker 1: Will you pull a gun on me in my own house?
Speaker 1: You're sniveling little ship of a man. I should destroy you.
Speaker 1: I'll stand it by dad, we'll want to stand you
Speaker 1: suit yourself. So Atlas suddenly grew a conscience? Huh? Is
Speaker 1: that it is? That why he disappeared. He's been acting
Speaker 1: a little funny lately. They say jin makes people go insane.
Speaker 1: So whatever it is that he told you, I wouldn't
Speaker 1: consider reliable by any stretch. He didn't tell me anything.
Speaker 1: He doesn't even know I'm here. Would you point that
Speaker 1: damn thing somewhere else before it goes off? Accidentally? I
Speaker 1: was in the house out behind the pool. What that's
Speaker 1: not important, only that I was in there. Quit a
Speaker 1: little synup you've got there. Yeah, you almost sounded as
Speaker 1: if you were stimulated by what you saw. You're deranged,
Speaker 1: You know. I wouldn't have presumed you to be so delicate.
Speaker 1: I mean, due to the very nature of your work
Speaker 1: as a riff rap, you must have encountered worse than
Speaker 1: a few straps and paddles and cat of nine tales,
Speaker 1: maybe even done worse. Come on, you've never fancied a
Speaker 1: knight of benzadrine. Hard to earn discipline in a little
Speaker 1: nipple twisting. Begging on a man who's pointing a gun
Speaker 1: at your head is probably not your brightest idea Shaw,
Speaker 1: What that's on there. That's cruelty, it's tortured. Stop being
Speaker 1: so dramatic holding women against their will. I have no
Speaker 1: knowledge of any women being held in this house against
Speaker 1: their will? Mr. Can you deny it? The reels were
Speaker 1: right there on that projector I saw your little film
Speaker 1: that you have nothing to say about the special requests
Speaker 1: of my clients or what they paid for nothing, And
Speaker 1: if what they request requires eight or sixty millivate a film,
Speaker 1: then that's what it requires. This wasn't varieties or stripper rama,
Speaker 1: not not not Bettie Page or Lily Don burlesque. I
Speaker 1: saw her. She was unconscious being pleaded with like some
Speaker 1: kind of of sex rag dog. I don't judge how
Speaker 1: anyone chooses to test their boundaries, and either sh do
Speaker 1: not bankers, not oil men, not land developers, and not
Speaker 1: the women who want to be more than secretaries or
Speaker 1: perfume pedalist at Bullocks. Whatever goes on in that little
Speaker 1: play ground that's not being done to me or by
Speaker 1: me is none of my business. Is your business? If
Speaker 1: it's not their choice. Don't be so naive. Any woman
Speaker 1: entering this house did so to either further their career
Speaker 1: or to maintain it. I've seen thousands come and go
Speaker 1: over the years, and the only thing that hasn't changed
Speaker 1: is their desperation. And so what if a few of
Speaker 1: them happen to get a little roughed up? Huh? I
Speaker 1: consider that extra curriculum, wouldn't you? It's what they're paid
Speaker 1: for now. I saw the operating table, I saw the
Speaker 1: drugs and the machines, the play, none of which was
Speaker 1: meant for you to see. That's why it's in my
Speaker 1: home and not in the papers. Get away from me?
Speaker 1: Does he you have over you? Huh? Why are you
Speaker 1: pring to let go of me? Forcing? Alibi is holding you? Mirror?
Speaker 1: How could you him get away with that? How many
Speaker 1: more girls? Too? It? Ten? How many? How many innocent
Speaker 1: women have been killed right under your bedroom window? You
Speaker 1: couldn't laugh? Give you one reason not to put pull
Speaker 1: it between your eyes? Sad La Harrison isn't a killer.
Speaker 1: Adla Harrison barely has the stomach to do what I
Speaker 1: pay him to do. He's not a killer anymore than
Speaker 1: you're a detective. You allowed there instructions how to hog
Speaker 1: tie captives a g string tie, and they're not captives.
Speaker 1: How many times do I have to yell their participating
Speaker 1: what the hell is with the looney been restraints on
Speaker 1: the bed? But well, why why the restraints? The restraints
Speaker 1: are a completely separate manner, and even more than I
Speaker 1: expect you to understand what the actors dry out in
Speaker 1: that room. They need somewhere to dry out discreetly, and
Speaker 1: it's in there. Adler tends to their symptoms and make
Speaker 1: sure they don't die in the process, because I don't
Speaker 1: need dead actors. It's not good for business. Some have
Speaker 1: become violent on occasion. The restraints protect Adler. He saves lives,
Speaker 1: he doesn't take them. Well, you've got an explanation for everything,
Speaker 1: don't you. It's not my problem if you find the
Speaker 1: month satisfactory. What it is your problem? The shakes, don't
Speaker 1: explain the stirrups and the boyd my god, you're insufferable.
Speaker 1: Adler is the studios goddamn insurance policy. Insurance policy. You
Speaker 1: don't have a clue about how any of this works
Speaker 1: because it's not your world. You break into my home,
Speaker 1: making damn fool assumptions and creating this fantastical storyline to
Speaker 1: justify your existence. Crawled back under your rocket festival word
Speaker 1: insurance policy. Pretty people like three things attention, more attention,
Speaker 1: and having sex fast and loose and often too often
Speaker 1: the hill. Does it have to do with anything birth control?
Speaker 1: Mr Briggs? It has to do with the issue of
Speaker 1: birth control. It's in all of their contracts. No kids.
Speaker 1: Adler disposes of unwanted pregnancies when necessary. Now does that
Speaker 1: explanation satisfy you? Is it why Adler was in Phoenix?
Speaker 1: I don't follow when Marline was found. Adler said he
Speaker 1: was in Phoenix for an actor who fell off of
Speaker 1: his horse, Minervaus Strickland pregnant by said horse riding actor.
Speaker 1: We have an arrangement with North Mountain Hospital. Adler was there.
Speaker 1: I told you he's not your killer. So all these
Speaker 1: tubes and needles and drugs that that that, that's all
Speaker 1: required for a voluntary procedure. Pental barbiton, suckle, barbatas on
Speaker 1: milltown and thorazine dem all method. Don't perka, Dan, take
Speaker 1: your goddamn pick. I like to be kept very comfortable.
Speaker 1: There's too much blood. I've got the wasting disease, kidney failure,
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of other ship. I can't even pronounce
Speaker 1: that I don't care to learn how to. But I
Speaker 1: survived the Depression prohibition, I survived Westerns and aqua musicals.
Speaker 1: I'll survive television, and I'll survive this. That doesn't explain
Speaker 1: the amount of board. Yes, that fucking well does. There's
Speaker 1: no way they're bumping an old bastard like me up
Speaker 1: the transplant ladder three to four days a week. I
Speaker 1: sit in that freezing cold self for seven to eight
Speaker 1: hours at a time while those machines, those abominations of
Speaker 1: natural science, they clean my blood, filter out all the
Speaker 1: fun I have a mass throughout my lifetime, and then
Speaker 1: pump it back in spick and span. I don't believe.
Speaker 1: I don't fucking care what you believe at this point,
Speaker 1: and I don't think Adler would appreciate your skepticism. He
Speaker 1: went through a lot of trouble to make it feel
Speaker 1: like a legitimate facility back there and not something illegal
Speaker 1: abortion clinic. Where did he get them? Adler's mash unit
Speaker 1: used the larger one when they were in Korea. He
Speaker 1: had it brought here by his army buddies. Wasn't cheap.
Speaker 1: It still doesn't explain when there was so much blood
Speaker 1: I bled more than a fair amount. Adler has to
Speaker 1: cut into me every damn time. My veins are so
Speaker 1: damaged from all those punctures. It takes time to stop
Speaker 1: the bleeding. I don't heal so well anymore. Now you
Speaker 1: see that's a lot of bandages. Wouldn't you say? I
Speaker 1: also piss myself from time to time. Please stop, I'm
Speaker 1: calling the police, Call the police. In all of this
Speaker 1: this makes the headline. No, none of this makes headlines.
Speaker 1: It never makes the headlines. Don't you get that game
Speaker 1: will if it's being recorded? Do you set a big
Speaker 1: don't set something but seats of it. It's my blood,
Speaker 1: God damn it, there are complications with the machine. I
Speaker 1: don't even know if the goddamn thing works anymore. Bad
Speaker 1: luck got that that made evil looking nineteen forties standing
Speaker 1: thing at nine. It leaks, It leaks my blood all
Speaker 1: over the floor. It was my blood, clearly enough blood
Speaker 1: to be misconstrued by a dim wit as a crime scene.
Speaker 1: You're smoking gun is nothing more than hemo dialysis, a
Speaker 1: little bit of sado masochism. Mr Briggs, Congratulations, stalemate. You're
Speaker 1: now guilty of breaking and entering and attempted murder, and
Speaker 1: I can't use it against you. A lot of good
Speaker 1: that does me. Where did your plan the recording device?
Speaker 1: Where is it in the couch? Oh? All of a sudden,
Speaker 1: you've got nothing to say. Why he's suddenly been struck dumb?
Speaker 1: No more fight left than you? When was this picture taken?
Speaker 1: When was his picture taken last two year's eve? How
Speaker 1: do you know him? I've known Samuel Tuch for years,
Speaker 1: crowd favorite, all those women in a cluster around him
Speaker 1: every party, oh, hoping to sit for him to be
Speaker 1: his next masterpiece. Frankly, I think he was bored by
Speaker 1: all of it. Damn shame too, all those women. He
Speaker 1: could have rivaled Gable for notches on his bed post.
Speaker 1: But I suppose just because you've been raised by tramps
Speaker 1: doesn't mean you have any interest in them. That little
Speaker 1: devian had probably spent more time in that damn pool
Speaker 1: house than I had. Well, what where where they? Having?
Speaker 1: In your need? I need to go here. If Samuel
Speaker 1: Tencher is a regular at Leonard Shaw's parties, then that
Speaker 1: might place him there the night that Marlene was murdered.
Speaker 1: For all we know, he may have even known her.
Speaker 1: But why not mention that from the start? Maybe the
Speaker 1: omission was an oversight. MM. Hello, this is Samuel, Mr
Speaker 1: tench Attack brace good afternoon, Mr Bricks. So nice to
Speaker 1: hear from you news I hope. Well, I think I'm
Speaker 1: just about done. Mr Touch, That's wonderful to hear so
Speaker 1: so so was there anything conclusive? Why don't I stop
Speaker 1: by tomorrow show you everything I've got? Perfection? I hope
Speaker 1: there will be plenty of tea. You jest, but of
Speaker 1: course there will be, of course until then, until then.
