They're an excuse for men to behave like silly boys
and do silly and disgusting things to some unfortunate friend.
Oh, you could say they're a way of saying how much a bunch of blokes really care about one of their mates.
What?
By stripping him to his underpants and chaining him in the ladies' loo?
Who was this?
Me and my butsnot.
It's a crude but affectionate expression of mateship.
I wouldn't expect a woman to understand.
You haven't had it yet.
Well, when you're chained in the ladies' loo and you're under Dax Darling,
don't expect me to come and get you out.
Do you reckon they will, Sister Gilroy?
Who knows what they'll do?
You remember Frank's?
I ought to.
I had to deliver the baby with him handcuffed to me.
Well, there you are then.
Yes, Cheryl, but that's Frank. He's one of the boys.
You sound as if you wanted to happen.
They're up to something, Cheryl.
Otherwise, they'd be giving me a quiet dinner at the club.
Not a do at Bob Hatfield's.
No?
They've got something planned for me.
A quiet dinner with a few friends, as far as I know.
Ah, come on. You're having me on.
You're a member of an esteemed profession, Simon.
Well, I can tell you one thing.
The girls' night for Vicky is going to be a quiet,
respectable little get-together to wish Vicky well.
And you can learn from that, all of you.
It's a quiet dinner with a few friends.
Bull!
Better check your schedule.
Make sure you haven't got an early call next day.
Better make sure you're wearing clean underwear.
I told you. Why have it at Bob's?
Why two days before the wedding?
Huh? It's gonna be a humdinger, right?
Right?
What are you doing?
Molly, trust me.
Just do make sure the hem's hanging evenly.
Look, it's even. It's even.
If you just stop expanding for five minutes...
Oh, it's lucky I made wide seams.
Yeah, well, there's about... about that much left on the sides.
So if the wedding's delayed, pow!
You'll be the star of the show.
That isn't funny.
Anyway, Chloe's going to be the star of the show,
aren't you, darling?
Chloe, who's going to be
Auntie Vicky's beautiful flower girl, then, huh?
Molly, it won't work.
It won't work. She won't know what to do.
She's just not old enough.
Sure, she'll be beautiful, won't you, darling?
Yeah, wandering outside the church doors
to show her flowers to the Vicky birds.
Haven't you finished yet?
Oh, humble apologies, madam.
There.
I'm gigantic, Brendan.
You're not. You're beautiful.
Look at Mummy. Isn't Mummy beautiful?
Even though she is inside out.
She is old enough.
She'll be a perfect flower girl.
He's fine, Tony, in grand form.
Doesn't show his age like some of us, does he, eh?
Oh, you can say that again.
Talking about me, not you.
You're getting younger-looking every day.
I don't feel any younger.
Lots of planning and preparations to do for the wedding.
You can say that again.
How anyone makes it to the altar beats me.
How many pieces are there?
Three.
Get down up there, boys. Come on.
Doc Bowen will be a bit of a wreck by now, I reckon.
I know. He's a cool, calm and collected designer.
That's what I thought.
Hey.
Who? Us.
Come on. I told you not to hang around here now.
Clear out of it.
Come on. Clear out of it.
They're Thompson kids, aren't they?
I've been giving you a bit of trouble.
Nothing like the trouble I'll give them if I catch them.
Well, he's looking good, the old Fred, isn't he, eh?
Got years in him, yes.
He's earned them.
And thanks for coming over, love.
And good luck.
Thanks. Bye, Fred.
Look after him, Tommy.
You look after Doc Bowen.
I will.
Darling, are you all right?
The doctor will soon fix you up.
Can someone help, please?
Could you help me, please, quickly?
What happened? My daughter's fallen off her horse.
Come on, sweetheart. Who are you crying so gonna help, is it?
Was she knocked unconscious?
Yeah, but just for a few seconds. I think she's just terribly upset.
Well, nurse will take you along to the examining room.
You can go to Mrs...
My name's Finlay, and Finlay, this is Alice.
I'll phone the doctor.
That's good.
And is your head hurt at all, Alice?
Do you remember what happened?
Yes, you do. Come on, tell Dr. Elliott.
She wouldn't stop.
Oh? Is she your horse?
One of Granddad's.
We've just come up from town.
We're staying with my father, Stuart Reed.
Oh, I know, him out in the Ridgeway.
Yes, that's right.
You said she lost consciousness for a few seconds, Mrs. Finlay.
Yes, doctor.
Yes.
Not really, darling.
She fell off and got a terrible fright, that's all.
I think you just fainted, darling.
I don't think you hit your head.
She bolted and reared up.
I'm never gonna ride her again.
Have you been riding long, Alice?
She's been mad about horses for years.
She reads books about them and collects pictures.
You know how it is with girls.
She had all her riding clothes and her hat
a long time before we even came up here.
And you're not sure that you like it anymore?
I do like it. I just don't like horses.
Makes it a bit difficult, doesn't it, Alice?
Now, do you hurt anywhere else?
No.
You feel sick?
A bit.
Well, I'd like to keep her here for observation,
and I'll take some x-rays just to be on the safe side,
but I really don't think there's anything to worry about.
Can I stay with her for a little while?
Of course.
Could you get the x-ray rim ready before you hand over to Mr. Jones, please?
Yes, doctor.
Mr. Jones, is that a man nurse?
You'll like Mr. Jones.
And I think you'll feel a lot better
about horses tomorrow.
I won't.
What the hell is it?
What is it? What is it?
What sort of an ignoramus are you, mate?
As good an ignoramus as you are, mate.
Look, Vicky and the doc wanted
something special, right? And that's it.
Yeah, but what is it?
A crocon bush?
A crocon bush, mate, you big galah.
Crocon bush, it's a cake
that I'm going to make for the wedding.
And you keep your big trap shut
because it's a surprise for the bride and the groom.
You can't make that for the wedding.
Can't I? You just claim and will watch me, mate.
Oh, mate, a cream puffs and stuff.
How are they going to sleep on that?
Sleep?
Sleep on a cake? What are you going on about, mate?
The guests, the aunties,
the little girls, you give them a piece of cake
and you wrap it up in a serviette and they sleep on it.
And they dream about the man they're going to marry.
Yeah?
Fruitcake, almond icing,
white pillars, and a little bride and groom on top.
Wake up to yourself, will you?
This is the Wandon Valley
wedding of the year. They want something really special.
You just want to get noticed, don't you?
All this crocon bush ball.
That's it. Out of my flaming kitchen.
Yeah, my kitchen, mate.
You're going to make me.
Get out of it.
Now you...
Now you've done it.
Now you've flamin' done it. You've loosened it.
Your head.
Your teeth. Flamin' teeth.
A blanket a day, you couldn't top it, mate.
Get out of me, will you? I've got work to do.
Get out!
You've got to get on with it, have you?
Of course I am. Of course I am.
The wedding of the year.
The cake of the year.
The cook of the year.
Bloody disaster of the year, if you ask me.
My heart is true.
Come, come.
I'm home.
My life is lonely.
Thank you, Frank. I'm home.
Yes, Joe, I heard you. I'm rehearsing my wedding song.
I think it sounds just perfect, Frank.
Looks like you brought up the supermarket again.
Just a few more things for tomorrow night, that's all.
You bearing up, okay? Yes, I'm fine.
How about the boys' night for Simon?
Is that all organized?
Nothing to organize. Quiet dinner at Bob's.
What do you keep saying? I can't believe them.
You're talking about the Doc's Buck night.
A quiet dinner, a few drinks, a few speeches.
You know what you ought to do?
Don't give them any ideas, Gabe.
Dress him up in a nappy, stick a dumb in his mouth
and chain him to Vicki's front door.
I knew a guy they did that to once.
It was a real rave.
Frank, you promised me.
Quiet, dignified evening. Is that the truth?
That's the truth, Cheryl. I promise you.
Some of these presents slack.
I mean, who wants a toaster for a wedding gift?
A lot of people, as a matter of fact, Gabe.
Please don't criticize other people's generosity.
It's not nice.
Yeah, but weddings are supposed to be fun,
so it should give them fun things.
Steam irons and electric carving knives.
Weddings might be fun, Gabe,
but marriage isn't.
It's a serious business. Right, Frank?
Right.
What's this about a piper?
Dave Pipes?
It's something Vicki's arranging for the wedding.
What about the girls' night?
Yes, it will.
Lots of girls talk, nice things to eat,
a few glasses of sherry.
Sherry? Wow.
And if that's not mind-blowing enough for you,
I might let you have one glass of champagne.
Far out.
Sounds like it'll be a lot more fun at the Bucks' night tonight.
Frank?
A gathering amongst friends show.
Cross my heart.
Oh.
You love that book, darling.
I thought it might cheer you up a bit.
Here he comes.
Faster than a speeding needle,
more powerful than a dose of epsom salts.
It's whoopin' Earth.
G'day. Or should I say good evening, ladies?
Which one's the passion?
The one in the bed, I think.
You? You can't be. You don't look crook to me.
What's your name? Alice.
Hi, I'm Brendan.
I'm just gonna take a pulse.
Ah.
You told me you were a nut about horses.
She's had a bit of a fright, I'm afraid.
It's tough luck, isn't it?
We moved up here because she's always wanted horses of her own.
But now, well, you're not so sure, are you, darling?
So your dad's getting a place in the Valley, is he?
No, there's just the two of us now.
We're staying with my father until we decide what to do.
Well, I hope you stay.
How are you feeling?
Still sick in the tummy?
That's good, darling.
Look, I think I'd better be going now.
Grandpa will be getting worried.
Well, don't you worry, Mrs. Finlay.
We'll take good care of her here.
Bye-bye, sweetheart.
Come on, eat tomorrow.
Oh, yes, I promise I will.
Bye-bye.
Goodbye, and thank you.
Bye.
So.
Gone off riding a bit, have you?
But you still love horses, right?
Yeah.
I know how you feel. It breaks your heart, doesn't it?
Are you married? Yep.
Why do you ask?
Just wondering.
I'm too old for you anyway.
I've made up me mind,
so this is all a great waste of time.
Well, ask the doctor, he'll tell you.
Can I help you? Oh, yes, love. Is the doctor here still around?
What can I do for you, Bob? Cookie?
I brought a cake out of the wedding, Doc.
Have a look at this, Doc, and tell me what you think.
Oh, hang on. All right?
He doesn't want to make a proper cake for the wedding.
Oh, it's a croquembouche.
Yeah. They're all the rage at the moment.
Say what I tell you, you big ape.
So I'll be all right then, Doc.
Oh, it'll be wonderful. Vicky and Simon will be thrilled.
You reckon you can do it, mate? Of course I can.
It'll be a big messy job before you're finished, though.
No worries.
It'd be best to put a plastic sheet down on the floor before you start.
One of those spray cans that smother it all with whipped cream.
Yeah, then we pour hot coffee all over it.
Oh.
She'll be right, mate, export light, mate
Drink it all night, mate, export light
It's good to share a few cold ones with your mates
without a worry in the world.
Export light.
It's got the full brewed taste you'll really enjoy.
But with export light,
you can sink a dozen an hour
You can sink a dozen an hour and still stay under the limit.
Export light.
You can drink it all night.
It's got the flavor, that's your favor
Drink it all night, mate, export light
Try export light.
You can drink it all night.
This is the new Volkan Dishlex Mark VIII.
It has two separate zones.
Up top a fine, gentle spray
carefully cleans your delicate dishes and glassware
while down below
ferocious jets of water
scour the baked-on murk from your greasy pots and pans.
It's called Hydra Pulse Action
and it means Dishlex is the only dishwasher
that combines heaven and
hell in one cycle.
Dishlex Mark VIII from Volkan.
Pascals are the lollies' yellow door
It's eighteen family favorites to explore
That's right
I pick Pascals
She picks Pascals
She picks Pascals
We all pick Pascals
Wouldn't you like to bake a Paschal too?
Crunch a Paschal, munch a Paschal
Whirl a Paschal, chew a Paschal
Wouldn't you like to bake a Paschal too?
Bake a Paschal, yeah, bake a Paschal
What a terrific variety
Wouldn't you like to bake a Paschal too?
Is a bank manager
likely to feel an affinity with the land?
Have any idea of the constant
work involved?
Do you understand that when something is in your blood
and your health and strength are good
the last thing you want to do is give it away?
Peter Butcher of the Commonwealth does
He can explain how a monthly
income term deposit scheme

enjoying
The Commonwealth Bank, making money

Plenty of young fellas around here
there, aren't they?
Just open, you know
And then she ups and marries a city bloke
Thought I was a bit crook myself
Yes, it does seem pretty unfair
Would you stand up now, Tommy, put some weight on it
Now bend the knee
Does that hurt much?
That's not too bad
I think you're going to need an operation eventually
but I'd like to delay it as long as we can
In the meantime I'll keep you on the tablets
Fair enough
How long ago did it happen?
About five years ago now
Certainly right for standing in the wrong place
at the wrong time
That could have smashed the kneecap
You're pretty lucky
There you go
Thanks
Tommy
There's a young girl rider in hospital right now
She's had a bit of a fright, seems a horse bolted and she fell off
She likes riding
but now she's afraid of horses
Well, I'd tell her to get back on as soon as she can
Who's this kid, is it?
Her mother's name's Anne Finlay, Stuart Reed's daughter
Oh, me brain, yeah
Her husband died a little while ago, down the city
You'd like me to call in and say good-bye to the kid in the way out, eh?
Would you?
Well, we can't have another great career nipped in the bud, can we, Doc?
Got a minute, Mr. Jones
Dr. Bowen, come in, meet a patient of Dr. Williams
Dr. Simon Bowen
This is Alice Finlay, Alice fell off a horse
Oh, is that right, how big a horse?
Oh, well, not so far to fall
Break any bones?
Mr. Jones, I wanted to let you know about tonight
The arrangements
Arrangements?
Bob's place, you know?
Ah, yes, yes, I'm taking you to Frank's and then he's taking us from there
No worries
Ah, no, no change of plans there, Mr. Jones
I'll get dressed at the flat and I'll meet you at Bob's place, okay?
Yeah, I just thought we'd go together
You're not catching me that easily, mate
Catching you, what do you want to do?
I'll see you there, all right?
And I will be prepared
Prepared?
I'm glad you do, because I certainly don't
Bye, Alice, get well soon
See you tonight, Mr. Jones
Bye
He's mine
Yeah, he is
Is he married?
No, but he will be in two days
Not having much luck, are you?
Oh, how's our patient this morning?
Oh, on the mend, I think
Ah, glad to hear it
Brought somebody to see you, it's Mr. Ambrose
G'day, Mr. Ambrose likes horses too
Yes, well, I've got a special horse
I look after him for the owners
What's so special about him?
Well, you have to come out and have a look at him if you want to know that
When are you getting out of here?
Oh, I think Mum could take you home tomorrow, Alice
Well, what about tomorrow then?
What are you and your Mum doing?
Oh, I don't know
Well, I'm easy to find
I live just up the road from Mr. and Mrs. Jones
Do you ride him?
Yes, now and then
How did you get your leg?
I fell off my push bike
I am not going to eat a bit of it
I'll remind you of that when we cut it
Oh, please, God, I'm on a diet, I'm on a diet
He won't help you, darling
Well, it looks as though it's going to be orgy of gargantuan proportions
It's going to be a very civilized evening, Brendan
That's exactly what you're having, isn't it, darling?
Oh, of course, Shirley, what else would we have?
We're very civilized
Why don't you bring Simon home with anything painted purple or whatever?
What's the matter? Don't you like purple?
Brendan, remember, Simon is not one of the boys
Ha, however much you'd like to be
You look after Simon for Vicki, won't you, darling?
Oh, for crying out loud
It's going to be just a quiet dinner party with a couple of friends
Oh, Frank, don't let them tempt you onto the hard stuff
I remember your bucks nice
Don't worry about me, Cheryl
I do worry, Frank
What's happened to my orange juice?
Sorry, boss, it's already in
The shops will still be open
Fruity?
Sure is, it's my own recipe
Can I have a taste?
No, you can't, ladies only
Come on, Frank, we'll miss the speech
Dirty giants, you mean
Frank doesn't know any, do you, Frank?
Only the ones you taught me, Cheryl
Well, have fun
We will
Don't worry about us
Hi
Excuse me
I wonder where Simon went on his own
Yes, and he wants us to visit his parents to see a horse day
Well, would you like to?
He says I want to ride again as soon as I can
Well, only if you want to
You don't have to do anything you don't want to
I do want to, I think
Okay
Well, let's decide tomorrow then
Over
I wish Dad was here
Then I wouldn't be scared
Well, we have to try not to be
Both of us
Do you think he knows I fell off?
I don't know
But I think his love is still here with us
Is it lonely?
Or is it happy being dead?
I don't know
I don't know
Well, have a little
Oh, well, we'll let her sleep now
She can have some supper later
Thank you
Looks innocent enough now, but she's a real little hustler, isn't she?
What do you mean?
Ask every bloke she meets whether he's married or not
Looking for a husband, I reckon
Who has she asked?
Oh, Dr. Bowen, Mr. Jones
I'm sorry
Nothing to worry about, it's a good joke, I reckon
Although she's struck out twice
Dr. Bowen's getting married day after tomorrow
Mr. Jones has already taken
Not that I'd have it myself if he wasn't
Can I stay here with her a little longer?
Just let me know when she wakes up
Mr. Bowley next door can have double
He's not married, but he's sent off
Darling
Hi Terrence, this is Adrian
Terry, I've heard a lot about you
Frank, meet Adrian
Frank, you're the policeman, I've heard a lot about you too
Hey Brendan, say hello to Adrian
Oh, g'day
G'day, nice to meet you after hearing so much about you
Adrian's old mate of Simon's up in the city
Hey, Cocky
Come and say hello to Adrian
Cocky, not me, Cocky, the one I've heard so much about
How are you, mate?
Bit of a blabbermouth, how Simon when he's in the city, eh?
He never stops talking about
Wandon Valley, he's lost to us, I'm afraid
Probably settled here for life, I'd say
Hang on, do you sound there's something wrong with that?
No
Good friends, a fine wife
He's got a job in a nice town, he's one of the luckiest blokes around, I reckon
Well respected here, mate
That's a flaming sure, the Doc's a real gent
And a scholar too, don't forget that
You were at university with him, Adrian?
Yeah, that's where we first met
Not that he approved of me at first
Why was that?
Hang on, mate, I'll touch his head
Oh, thanks, mate
I was a member of the Japers, a group sworn to liven up the campus
Bunch of ratbags, the lot of us
Simon was your clean living
upper middle class student, you know what I mean
Poor bloke
He didn't know what hit him the night we blew up his bed
How you going?
He came flying downstairs
Pajamas smouldering
He was actually wearing pajamas
He probably still does
What's wrong with that? Doesn't everybody?
He abused all hell out of us
He only was a serious business
He was there to work, not to play silly beggars
You know, he had exams coming up
What sort of infantile idiots were we and so on and so on
Nah, that's our dog, mate
Yeah, he loosened up a bit after that
Actually, Simon's got a few hidden talents
But, uh, he's a real conservative at heart
And with something of a family reputation to keep up
Righto!
Go for your lives with a whip cream
Yeah, go on
Go on
G'day
The last thing I want to do is jeopardize my marriage
And if Patricia knew the truth, I'd lose her
What terrible secret is Stephen Morrell hiding from Patricia?
I'm going to tell him I want a divorce
Is Kevin and Lynn's marriage on the rocks?
You have interfered in my life just once too often, Patricia

Can someone have a piece of my fruitcake?
I made it myself, you know
Why don't you have something yourself?
Oh, I can't
Take the first slice for oneself
It's not done, dear
I think I might just have
Some more of your delicious punch
Oh, it's so fruity
All round
All deep
We're not running out, are we?
Woody, Woody
Sure
Scratches, scratches
Scratches

Everybody's happy, eh?
Yes, sir
He's going to refill the old punch bowl
He better not have any being six months gone
No, I don't think I will
Shirley
Where's Beverly?
Surely Beverly's coming
Beverly? I don't know anything about Beverly
Is Beverly coming, darling?
She wasn't invited, so she's bound to tear
I was never much good at speeches
But
I would like to say that
From the day after tomorrow
Another good man will be gone
Good on you, Doc
I'll drink to that
But a better thing
Couldn't have happened to a better man
And a better friend
A good friend
That's what you are to us
And that's why we've all gathered here
To pay our last respects
To the condemned man
Thanks, Terrence
All I know is who copped the hot toffee and the whipped cream
Your cake
Hang on, friends
First of all
I'd like to thank you for all coming here this evening
It's meant a lot to me
Adrian
Thanks for coming up from the city
I'll send a letter to the governor for your parole
Terrence
My partner
Yes
I don't think Terrence thought I'd last in the valley
I didn't think I would
Frank
My soon-to-be father-in-law
Well sort of
You like me, Ray, what a place
Thanks, Frank
For scaring all those other blokes off
Brendan
Bob, Cookie
All of you
You're good mates
All of you
Ladies and gentlemen
I mean gentlemen
I thought there was something wrong
We have amongst us a man who likes to hide his light under a bushel
A man of hidden talents
As I said before
Now some of you may know that Simon Bowen had a brilliant
Stage career cut short
No, no, no
He used to entertain us
On many a dull but wet night
At uni with some of his famous impersonations
Of people of his time
Like Greta Garbo and Charlie
Simon, can you do Muldoon?
Hey
Can he do Muldoon?
All right, all right
Okay
All right, okay
Who's this?
No
I ain't gonna hit you
I ain't gonna hit you
The hell I ain't
I can do a really good John Wayne
I told you his talent was hidden
This one is really good
Suffering sciatica
Sit down, Mr. Muckle
Please, darling
Sweetheart
From that
Come on, yeah
I know you've got talent, Doc, but I don't know what for
Let me do my John Wayne
Wait, wait, wait
This is one you will all know
Dr. Berlin
Did I overhear you talking about insurance?
Look, Simon, forget all those
Why don't you do Muldoon?
That was Muldoon
Listen, I can do a really good John Wayne
Wait, wait, wait
This is really, really good
You rat
You rat
You dirty, dirty rat
I'm gonna get you
More beer, cookie
Yeah, I'll have another
It was in the cucumber sandwiches
I told the lady chairman
I told her it's in the cucumber sandwiches
But she wasn't worried at all
Well, we all know not too much
worried men, don't we?
I mean, how we ever
elected a closet drinker
is beyond me
And in other respects
she's not all she should be, you know
but my word
Oh, we're all ears, isn't it?
And there's a few monkeys
There's a few monkeys in her flat
Gabe
Sure got this dead-to-the-turn going, eh?
I think you've got it going quite long enough
Oh, I wasn't doing any harm
Look at him
Oh, Watson's the life of the party
He'll make them all sick
So what, Gabe?
It's pretty sneaky
My God
Oh, hello, family
Certainly not
When is she having a pre-wedding party?
Right, girls
She drove past a what?
What?
A cat house
A cat house
The men, the men, the men
The men, the men
Like pressure from the black lagoon
What the heck's going on here, show?
What's going on? This is the start of the same thing
Everything's going on
We're just having a party, right girls?
Yeah
Look, what's the point in making a fuss about it before the wedding?
It didn't really do any harm
Yeah, well, there could be a few sore heads around this morning
You should have seen yourself
You looked like a bunch of drunken ratbags
Us ratbags?
What about Simon in a frogman suit?
You must have realised what was happening
It's the oldest trick in the book
Well, anyway, I got rid of the evidence
Vodka in the punch
You know, I bet a few of those very nice ladies
knew exactly what was going on
but just didn't want to admit it
Great excuse to let her rip
I saw it, Brendan, remember?
I didn't drink any of it
In fact, Gabe warned me not to
Let's face it, Molly
Buck's parties are a disaster all round
Didn't even get to do me John Wayne
Never mind, darling
I think Brendan Jones
is much nicer than John Wayne
I remember the fruit punch
A very fruity fruit punch
I wonder if that was the reason why
not one slice of my fruit cake was touched
Now, doesn't that mean that
I was right?
A slice of my fruit cake was touched
Now, doesn't that strike you as rather peculiar?
Yes, yes, I suppose so
You said that you have to go to the clinic
Are you all right?
There's nothing wrong with me, surely
Nothing wrong at all
I feel a little bit light-headed
but I slept like a top
Yes, as a matter of fact
I'm feeling oddly well
I know it's not bothering me at all
I think that's rather worrying, surely
She'll be all right
Come in and meet him properly, Alice
Come on
Now, this gate now
You've got to be very careful to shut this gate properly
It's Fred's worth a lot to a lot of people
Oh, Fred
I brought a visitor to meet you
Come on
Come on
Say hello to Alice
I wouldn't like you to ride him just now
Not until you come back with your proper boots
and your proper hat
But how about you just sit up on his back for a while
Just get to know him
Let him get to know you
He's beautiful
You know something?
He likes you
How can you tell?
I know him
I like you
Come on
You want to know something else about Fred?
You mean why he's so special?
You hadn't forgotten about that, had you?
No, tell me
Well, I used to train him
He wasn't called Fred then
What was he called?
Victory Stride
Victory Stride?
Didn't he?
That's the one
One of the really, really great ones, Alice
I'll tell you something else, too
If he lets you on his back
You're a rider
Now, I might be wrong about you
Your mum might be wrong about you
You might be wrong about yourself
The big horse
is never wrong
He knows
Come on
Come on, mate
How would you like
a quick grand in the hand?

G'day, what's new?
Flip phone, a whole new phone you can own
A whole new look, a whole new sound
All in one electronic
Phone of the future
It's so compact, you want it around
Pick it up, it flips out
Easy to dial
It's also got a last number redial
He said, flip phone
It's a whole new phone
Flip phone, it's a great phone you can own
Try it, buy it
At a telecom business office near you
It's a beauty, mate, a beauty
I wouldn't believe it could be done
Unless I said it with my own eyes
You're not a cook, mate, you're an artiste
A Leonardo da Vinci of the kitchen
That's what you are
I'm proud of you, mate, proud
It wasn't easy, mate
I know it wasn't easy
Didn't I watch you painstakingly stick the thousand little cream puffs together
And fill each one with whipped cream
And coat them all with hot runny toffee
I know what it cost you, mate
Look at that
Still as steady as a brain surgeon
Well, if ever I have a gouger, mate, I'm sorry
If ever I doubted your word, I'll eat them
Now
You'll never be forgotten as croc and butch
Never
And you were the one that helped me
Mess with me
Any I want to give you, I'll give them free of you, old friend
You don't have to spit on me, you filthy big dingo
Oh, I'm sorry, Cookie
Oh, almighty
Your toast gone
Gone?
You've got to be joking, where did it go?
Where the hell?
Well, where do you remember having it last?
When I was mixing the cream
My bloody toast and the wedding cake
Get away from that cake
Listen, Cookie, it's in there, I've got to find it
Over my dead body
It's in there, I'm telling you, I can't take a cake to a wedding with a tooth in it
Come on, back, back, back, gone, gone
You're stark, rave and mad, mate, you're bloody mad
Back, back, back
Gone, back, you biggie, back
Oh, come on, there's nothing wrong with me, Doc
I'm the doctor, Mr. Pearson
You're the patient, remember?
Won't want anybody getting crook tomorrow, eh?
There is a locum coming in
You don't have to worry about a thing
Dr. Bowen certainly isn't worried, and it's his wedding
What's there to worry? Take his temperature, please, sister
I'll be back in a few moments, sir
Come with me, Mr. Jones
Doctor
Nerves, do you see any sign?
None at all
Terrence, just the man
All organized?
Afternoon, Simon
I'm sticking away
What time? Your time, mate
No second thoughts, no faint doubts, no cold quivers of apprehension
I'm getting married, not shot
Well, it's only natural to be a bit jittery, eh?
Look, I just keep my mind on the job
I'll leave the jitters to Vicky
Paper, sir
Ah!
Do you have to creep up on people like that?
Sorry, what's it going to be like by tomorrow?
Tomorrow
It's tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
It's today
He sent me flowers
Yes, it's today, darling
He sent you flowers
It's only because he can't come in person
Why not?
Because the groom can't see the bride on the day of the wedding
It's bad luck
And so is cleaning his shoes on the table, Frank
Oh, it's a lot of superstition, Cheryl
On my daughter's wedding day, Frank
I'm superstitious
I can't believe it's happening, Mum
I'll get those mortar for you before they get old and withered
This house has so many memories
You'll still be here after you're married, darling
Don't you think you should be getting ready, love?
Why, what time is it?
Near and high noon
It's only half past nine
You've got a house yet
Why don't you sit down and relax for a few minutes?
Relax?
Come on
Now, your dress is hanging up
Molly will be here in about an hour
Everything's organised
All you have to do is enjoy getting married
Simon and me getting married
Yes, you've got that bit right
Never been so happy, Mum
Neither have I
I love you, Mum
Oh, darling
Good, old boy, good boy
Thank you for letting me ride you
Can you manage this?
Yes, Mr Ambrose
All right, you put his saddle away and I'll fetch him a special treat
Come on
Hey, you
What do you want? You shouldn't be here
Do you ride the big horse?
Yes, why?
See, I told you so
She can ride him
You'd better not let Mr Ambrose see you hanging around here
The girl can ride him
I bloody well can't
Come on
Come here
Steady
Steady
Stay there
Steady
Steady
Show the guy
Quick
Let's get out
Fred
Fred, come back
Next on Seven
You know how it is
You can't be bothered voting because you think your one little vote's just a drop in the ocean
Well, a lot of just one vote's got together and got the country social services
like pensions, unemployment benefits and family allowances
A lot of just one vote's helped put political parties in and out of office
Your one vote gives you a share in a very powerful voice
It's the only way to have your say that really counts
Make your mark in Australia
Enroll to vet
No, this isn't another of those dreary cat food commercials
Thank goodness for that
I think that calls for champagne, don't you?
Absolutely
Angusbrook
Did you know that no cat has ever won the Melbourne Cup?
You amaze me
Did you go last year?
Yeah, there wasn't room to swing a cat
Oh, you didn't try, did you?
Don't be silly, I didn't have one with me
The cat didn't offer that one
Yeah, lumber, Angusbrook
Any excuse, although?

No way, sport, I can tell by the softness
And the freshness
My wife's cuddly
Your wife's cuddly?
My wife uses cuddly
Fabric softener, there's your towel
Cuddly's two softening agents make the difference
Cuddly gives your whole wash a deep down softness you can really feel
What was that again, Snuggly?
Cuddly
Cuddly, feel the difference, smell the difference
You must have left the gate open
No excuse about the gate, I warned you about that gate
He'll be alright, won't he?
Well, you better hope that he is, girly, now come on
It wasn't my fault
It wasn't
So, I told myself before I went to sleep last night
Tomorrow's a day
Just like any other day
Thousands of people get married
All over the world are getting married
Muslims, Hindus
Eskimos
Hot and Tots
Sure, it's special
Sure, it's nice
But it's nothing to get over excited about
I'm going to enjoy it
Every minute of it
Not if you don't get a move on, you won't
There's plenty of time, Brendan, stay calm
Just like you, right?
Right
Simon, you're eating horseradish on your toast
I always eat horseradish on my toast
Oh my god, what am I doing?
Look at the time, Brendan, Simon, tell me
Everything's under control
Tell me, tell me
Alright, alright
Now, the locum's on the job
And we're meeting Terrence at your place
So we get changed into the monkey suit
Right, right
Whose car are we taking?
Well, I lent the FJ to the Armstrongs
So that Bob could take their station wagon
So that Cookie could put the cake in
Good grief, what about Molly?
Well, Simon, I'm not coming to your place
No, I mean to Vicky's, I mean to Shirley's
Well, Bob's left me his ute
Oh, it's too complicated, something's going to go wrong
No, Simon, Simon
Nothing's going to go wrong
Just keep calm
Right, right
How's the planning going, Molly?
Simon!
Do you think I would ring Vicky?
What for, Bob? Do you think she's forgotten at all?
No, give her some moral support, a shoulder to lean on
You've got to be joking
Shirley will have everything under control, Simon
Right, right
Yes, of course, nothing to worry about
Absolutely nothing to worry about
I'm getting married
Me, Simon Bowen
I can't believe it, it's fantastic
We'll have kids
A couple
Three or four
A whole house full
What about names? What'll I call them?
Look, I wouldn't worry about that just yet, mate
I need a drink
No, Simon, not on top of the horseradish either
There, how does it look?
Beautiful, you'll just look beautiful in it, Molly
There's no problem with the cake, Cookie
Are you sure?
Yes, well, Cookie, how will you get it there?
It'll be all right in the station wagon
Oh, and is everything ready for the reception?
Yes, Cookie?
Yes, Cookie?
Yes, she is
Bye, Cookie
Where's my cravat? Has anybody seen my cravat?
Frank, don't bother us
And Vicky, stop fiddling with your hair
Are you sure it's all right, Mum?
Looks lovely, dear
Frank's right for once, darling
What's stupid without my cravat?
Molly should be here soon
Are you panicking?
Who's panicking?
Now, have you checked the cars?
Yes, Cheryl
Now, the church is decorated, the bows are on the pews
Our phone, Cookie, the cake's ready
Darling, do you think you should have a little bit more make-up on?
No, I'm okay, Mum
It'll make you look even more beautiful
I'm beautiful enough, Mum
Frank, hands to the phone
Yes, Cheryl, long life to the past
Hello?
Yes, she is, hang on
Oh, that's all I need
Hello, Esme
Yes, yes, everything's completely organised, Esme
Yes, thank you
We'll let you know if you need anything
Yes, I will
Bye, Esme
What are you staring at?
Cute little...
Yeah
I do, don't I?
Vicki?
It's time
Come on
Oh, son
Good boy
Come on
You're so foked up, are we?
Steady, aren't we?
Yes
You're handsome
Who is it?
It's a man
Oh, my dear
Lay down, dear
Oh, son
Carefully, darling
It's okay, Mum
I'll get it
Gilroy residence
Who?
Oh, good day, Tommy
Well, yes, she is, but I'm afraid it
Huh?
Oh, hang on
Vicki, it's Tommy Ambrose
He said it's an emergency

I think Soody loves me
Especially when I have a can of whiskers in my hand
Well, we found Soody as a tiny little abandoned cat
And we raced off to find something for her to eat
And we chose whiskers
And we're so pleased we did
Because she's just thrived on it
Oh, she comes running for a can of whiskers
Because it is so appetizing
And is consistently fresh and moist
And she just licks the bowl clean
I never have to throw anyway
It's so frisky she can outrun every dog in the neighborhood
Did your cat get his whiskers today?

Are you the one who called
Lieutenant Monahan last night?
I'm looking for somebody, a girl
That's just eyeball stuff, man
Touching cans out front
I met with the DA then, he pressed me for the official findings
I'm not signing, you signed it?
What are you talking about? This is not a very complicated case
Do you mind if I loosen up?

Casualty's heavy. Notify the morgue
You see, ah, there are five more bodies
I bet you'll be it. Here's the dental x-ray
Oh, Sam, you handle the match up
Pulling the dental charge on this one, will you?
Check with the forensic odontologist
There won't be this to stay
All right. How are you holding up?
I think we can finish this tomorrow
Do we have a choice?
Well, we're jammed up here, but I could hold those five for the morning
Can't do that. The parents, husbands, and wives
Oh, eating my heart out
Wondering if the loved ones are here
Can't keep them dying
All right, I couldn't agree with you more
I just want to check that we'll work and we'll just continue
What is she doing here?
You want to talk?
Yes, but...
Then you can tell me. My daughter, she went to this place
I'm sorry. We just don't have information right now
Barbara said she didn't come home
And she's never late
And then I see on television the...
Dr. Astin, what do you want me to do?
This
Get her out of here!
She's all right
All right?
What the heck is the matter with security letting her down here?
Quincy, I'm going to check on it
There's only one guard on at night. He was helping us down here
One, one, one?
Do we have more than one of anything in this place?
You have a right to make the point, but...
Look, we have work to do right now
We just got a positive idea on the last John Doe
I don't know how, but we did it
Yeah, but what about the next time? The next?
If you keep working that hard, we're going to end up on one of those tables
Quincy, I did check on that guard. He was helping us down here
Listen, I want you to know I really appreciate the work you did tonight
Under very difficult circumstances
Thank you, sir
In fact, take tomorrow morning off
Sleep late, whatever you want. You deserve it
But having all that work, we had piles of work to do
Pays off, Quincy
Oh, better still, miracle of miracles
Did you break down and hire some more help?
Listen...
Listen, we're tired. Let's not hassle this tonight
But you saw how we had to work. You went there
We had to pray we didn't make any mistakes
Well, a tragedy like this does not happen every day
You know, the budget is not ready for a common budget
Since when are we a business?
We're supposed to make the dead help the living, not just label them and bury them
They said, don't make the dead help the living
We're supposed to make the dead help the living, not just label them and bury them
Listen, don't tell me what our job is
Somebody better, because you seem to have forgotten
You are not a medical examiner anymore. You're a business executive
You know, you're just like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
Put you in greens, you're Dr. Jekyll. Put you in a business suit, you're Mr. Hyde
Well, one day you're going to want to change back
And you're not going to be able to. You're going to remain Mr. Hyde forever
It was a long night. He was tired
Well, he should be tired. He, uh, worked very hard
Are we off yet?
Well, I'll see you tomorrow
Yeah. Good night, sir
Good night, doctor
Hey, I'll clean up, sir
What?
Oh, uh, oh, yes, yes
Yeah, you go home and get some sleep
Yeah, thank you
Hello, uh, Dr. Raston
What?
No, no, no, bring it right up
Well, sure, sure, we'll finish it tonight
Yeah, right
They found another body
Oh, well, I'll see if I can catch Dr. Quincy
No, no, he's letting up
I'm here, I'll handle it
Supper got lost in the shuffle and I'm hungry. How about something to eat?
Maybe Danny's is still open
Hey, we driving in this?
What's wrong with your car?
Well, it's being fixed. It's an antique, remember?
Tell me the truth. Was I wrong or what?
Don't we need more help?
Quince, one of my ancestors was supposed to have said
A sticky wheel turns better with oil than sand
Is this the morgue?
I mean, is this where they brought the people that were in the fire?
From the Crescent Club? Yes
Yes, it is
Oh, well, uh, who do I, what do I do? Who do I talk to?
Did you know somebody that was in the fire?
Yes, Mike, Mike Ryan
Well, you'll have to check it out with...
All the victims have been identified, Miss
Nobody by that name. I saw the whole list
Really?
Are you sure?
What if he wasn't on the list?
Well, thanks. Thank you
Sam? Yeah?
Listen, you phony, is the Chinese who make up the proverb, not the Japanese?
How would I know? I read it in a fortune cookie
You've got the reputation for that pride and care and everything
That tastes so good to me
And you're quicker than a flicker when
Good friends come calling
It's the number one down under month
And the only one for me
Yes, if I could put Australia in a can, I'd call it it
You're the only one for me
Hello. Do you want a drink?
Yes, thanks
Oh, smashing. What do you want then?
Um...
Oh! I'm on the rocks
What?
What? I'm on coke. I'm on soda, ain't I?
Why not?
Why not, indeed. Come on. Here you go, my dear
Cheers
Cheers
That tastes like, um...
Of course it does
Where you from?
Um...
Of course it does
Where you from?
Southern comfort tastes like...

When you're caught short-handed, United Permanent Multisaver has the answers
He was in the office, not in the main partner club
That's why they didn't find him right away
What are you doing here, Monahan? Why are you so, uh, interested?
Mike Ryan. He was the owner of the club
You know, the arson squad said the fire started as a torch job
So?
Started in his office
So I got lots of reasons to be interested, Doc
Number one, homicide
Tell Quincy, uh, to do a good job
Quincy's not here. I'm gonna handle it
Huh? You?
You know, Monahan, I'm going to, uh, take my credentials
I'm gonna frame them. I'm gonna hang them around my neck
Just to, uh, prove to everybody that I'm a doctor
No, it's all right. You have an objection?
No, I'll get Quincy
No, of course not. Well, uh, look
When you're through, why don't you call me at the office, huh?
Hold them
How many times have I asked them to get more help?
Get down on my knees and beg them. You heard me. Didn't you hear me, sir?
Endlessly
Endlessly. What a wonderful choice of a word to describe perfectly
Endlessly
See, I wasn't wrong, Danny. You think I was wrong?
You wrong? No, no, P.J. I'm wrong for staying up this late
Oh, boy. Terrific friend. I needed that
Oh, boy. Terrific friend. I needed that
Oh, boy. Terrific friend. I needed that
All right, Sam, I want you to give it to me straight, okay?
All right, Sam, I want you to give it to me straight, okay?
Do you think I'm wrong?
Okay.
You're not wrong
Well, you're wrong. I am wrong
What?
Not about what I said, but the way I said it I was wrong
But I was right and you shut up
I wasn't thinking
I mean, why do I have to dump on him?
He's got a lot of his own problems here
I said some terrible things to him, Sam
Check him in hard
Oh, he'll forget about it
He always does, you know
Don't argue with me, Sam
You're always arguing with me
Why do I do that to my friends?
And he's one of my best friends after this
Why do I treat him like that?
Because you're a lovable but miserable rat, think
Why don't you take that crying town and go home?
I can take a hand, you know
I don't need no building for me
Hey, can I give you a lift?
I'm just going to walk to my boat
I want a cane
Come in
What?
All right, in about an hour
Good morning
Sit down
Did you get enough sleep? You're in early
As a matter of fact, I didn't sleep at all
Oh, really? I'm sorry
I feel marvelous
The caseload shouldn't be too rough today
Why don't we knock it off?
What?
I acted like a horse's rear end last night
I want to apologize, I'm sorry
No, I forgot all about that
We were all pretty tired last night
It makes the job lively
Thank you
Doc?
Oh, sorry, gentlemen
Listen, Doc, I've got to get that autopsy right away
Good morning, my man
Oh, yeah, good morning, hello, Quincy
Listen, the D.A.'s really hot on this
Finally, finally we can pin something on Soliarkov
All you have to do is spell it out
You're talking about that body I autopsied last night?
Yeah, in a step I brought in
Which body is that?
After you left, another body from a fire
Only this one didn't die in the fire
You said so yourself
A busted skull homicide
I said homicide pending further study
What makes you so sure it's a homicide?
Well, the stiff, it was Mike Ryan, he was the owner of the club
We knew he was under pressure and the mob wanted in
They wanted to use his club for a front for something
You know, gambling or dough puzzling, you name it
But I guess Ryan wasn't buying
So Arkov killed him, set fire to a place to cover up
But who's Soliarkov?
A hood, enforcer, torch, you name it, he's done it
Monahan, would you hold the calls, please?
Look, I didn't know this was so important
I have to be out of the office this morning
And I have luncheon with a Kiwanis this afternoon
But I'll tell you what I'm going to do
I'm going to let my best medical examiner complete the findings
Won't you do that, Quincy?
Of course
Quincy, come up with the right answers, huh?
I want to nail this guy
Well, if he set the fire, so do I
For 11 innocent people, come on, fill me in
What have we got so far?
A crushing defect in the dermis
Depressed, comminuted, and linear fractures
It seems plain enough, lungs clean
Fractured skull, undoubtedly a blunt instrument
Homicide
Yeah, looks like the answer was right
Except that can't be the answer
Well, I guess it is
Well, I guess it is
Well, I guess it is
Well, I guess it is
Yeah, looks like the answer was right
Except I can't find any evidence that the body was moved
How about this, huh?
What is it?
This heart has had a rough time
Closely I can see three old infarctions
He's had at least three heart attacks
Coronary arteries are 80 to 90 percent occluded
It was a walking coronary, waiting to hit
It's just in
Are you saying that this was a cause of death?
Well, panic, fire, anything like that
He can go
Quince, Aston has his word on the line
You're not saying he's wrong, are you?
I don't live for working, I work for living

Oh, look Quincy
How's it going?
Yeah, you got the autopsy report?
It's not finished yet
Why?
You know, Aston called it
All you have to do is fill in the blanks
Not that easy
It will be if that witness that called last night shows up today
You know who she is?
No, she didn't tell me
Isn't that Anders I found on Orion's driver's license?
Was that right? 220 Westridge?
Yeah, it's an apartment
Why? What does that got to do with that?
Tie up a couple of loose ends
Oh boy, here we go again
I'm starting to repeat myself
Quincy, there are no loose ends
Aston said it
He was hitting the head
That beam was found across his head, right?
Oh no, wait a minute
I know what you're getting at with that beam
Just send it to the lab, will you?
The whole thing?
No, just the top four feet
We'll show the toothpicks
See you later
Let's go
I'm looking for the manager
Yeah
You the manager?
Yeah
I'm with the county coroner's office
Yeah
Did Mike Ryan live here?
Yeah
I'd like to look at his apartment
Yeah
I have a key, could you let me in?
212?
Yeah
You spin quite a yarn
You spin quite a yarn
You spin quite a yarn
You spin quite a yarn
Didn't you forget something?
I don't want to wait, please
I just want to talk to you
I'm not going to hurt you
We met last night, you remember?
In front of the morgue
Yeah
Why are you so angry?
Where you going?
Where are you going?
Why am I so angry?
I'm with the coroner's office
Are you the one who called Lieutenant Monahan last night?
Please don't want to wait, I just want to talk to you
What are you doing?
She's going to get away, let go
Put your keys down
Yeah
Sam, what is that?
I don't know, Quincy sent it over
Why is it here?
All I know is that it's from the fire
Oh, it came here, huh?
Quincy, what do you have this here for?
The fireman said it fell on Ryan's head
You mean you think that the skull fracture was caused by this
and not by the blow on the head in my findings?
Well, I have to look into every possibility
Of course you do, of course, and
there were ashes and
cinders in the wound, but
they could have come from anywhere
I see I'll have to check it out for tissue remains, bone fragments
Of course you should, I'm late for an appointment
I think you'll find that I'm right about this
Yes, definitely
You finished the blood analysis, stomach contents?
Yeah, I found traces of proplanolol and digoxin in both
Both used in hypotensive and coronary therapy
These I found in Ryan's apartment
I talked to the pharmacist
He said that Ryan was going to the hospital next week for bypass surgery
Then a heart attack's still in the running
That's right
You've got to tell Aston
I know, Sam, I know
Well, Dr. Aston
Hi, Danny, how are you?
All alone at night?
No, just waiting for Quincy
What time did you two kiss and make up?
Just our weekly confrontation
Good, that means that maybe I'll get home early tonight
Sorry, I'm late
I didn't get your message until I got home about ten minutes ago
Oh, that's all right
Hey, Danny, let's have the usual for Dr. Quincy
And on me
And let's have a little peanuts and some popcorn, you know, spare no expense
You know, some popcorn, sounds like a regular love feast
Quincy, I think I pulled it off
I've got some heavyweights on our side
What do you mean?
How's this for starters?
The police commissioner and the district attorney
I met with them this afternoon
I got them the promise that they would go right to the top personally for me
to help get our department more money
Oh, that's terrific
Terrific
You've got to be up to your ears and lab assistants, we can't miss
Here you go, Doc, your favorite libation
Thank you, Danny
Like I am
Cheers
Please
Well, I didn't expect handsprings, but I thought that...
Oh, no, listen, it's great news, it really is
But we do have a problem and I'd like to get it solved
Danny, could you just turn that off?
Look, I want to talk to you, this is very important
I just want to hear this one
Three of the most critically injured died today in county hospitals
Officials have declared the fire to be of incendiary origin
Possibly connected to the murder of the owner Mike Ryan
And the district attorney's office is filing charges against the suspect now in custody
Sports and weather in a moment
Danny, thank you
Oh, God must have confessed, they seem to have him nailed and they don't need our report
They have our report
How could they do that? I didn't sign anything
Well, when I met with the DA this afternoon, he pressed me for the official finding
So I figured, well, this will help us
I'm assigned and you signed it?
Of course I signed
But suppose you're wrong
What are you talking about? This is not a very complicated case
Yeah, but you didn't do a complete autopsy
No, I didn't
But you did
And I know you well enough that if you'd found anything wrong
You would have come into my office screaming
Right?
I hate it
Hey, Danny, let's have a little champagne
Oh, I'm screaming, all right, you just can't hear me
But it's your wedding day
It shouldn't be more than an hour
An hour?
It's chaos at Joel's place as Vicki gets an emergency call on a big day
I need a drink
Will she keep Simon waiting at the church?
Let's set up a drink
You're going to be late
It's the funniest, happiest, most beautiful wedding there's ever been
As Simon gets his Vicki at last
And an ending you'll never forget as you relive the magic moments of their friendship
Call me Simon
You're invited to the wedding of Simon and Vicki tomorrow night here on 7

Now what is all this nonsense about a heart attack?
Mr. Glendon, please, this is not nonsense. Dr. Quincy
I found a three vessel occlusive coronary sclerosis
Now he had at least three heart attacks
A coronary would be highly possible, but the blow is definite
I'm just saying we should take a closer look
Yes, we could do that
I mean, he could have had a heart attack and sustained the fractured skull when he fell
Of course, if...
Now, wait a minute
Dr. Aston, this entire office has acted on the basis of your findings
I understand that
Now, the district attorney has assigned this case to me
But I can't tell you how disappointed he's gonna be if this Arkhov case falls through
I intend to prosecute unless you tell me right now there's no case
Wait a minute, you can't put him on a spot like that
Please, I can speak for myself
Now, I've looked this all over and...
Mr. Glendon, you have a case
I stand by my original findings
He died of a severe cerebral trauma as a result of a blow to the head
And tell the D.A. I stake my reputation on it
Dr. Quincy, they told me I could wait here for you
You may not remember me, but we met in court last year
You testified in a case I defended
That hooked up suicide, I remember you lost
I think I'll have better luck this time
Who's your client?
I'm representing Saul Arkhov
I think you picked another loser
I have you on my side in this case
You do?
Mike Ryan's physician phoned me, told me you called
You were very interested in the condition of his heart
Just routine
Oh, really?
I compliment you on your thoroughness
Mike did have a serious heart condition, very serious
And I'm very busy
I won't keep you, I just want to let you know
That I'm asking for a preliminary hearing
And I'll expect you to testify on my client's behalf
That'll be the day
Yes, it will
And very soon
Unless you persuade Dr. Astin to change his report
I don't think he will
I don't think you'll be able to remove that important doubt
As to the cause of death
And that doubt is all I need
It'll be a cold day in hell when I testify for you
Truth is a two-way street, Dr. Quincy
As a medical examiner, you are as compelled to testify
For the defense as the prosecution
Bye, doctor
Wait a moment
Hold on
I'll go with you
What happened?
I heard you were down with the DA's office
Yeah, a pushy kid is in charge of deputy
Wants to be governor in ten years
Well, he can't push this
Well, he is pushing it, believe me
I want to talk to Astin the minute he comes back
He won't be until late this afternoon
He phoned a little while ago
It sounds kind of strange
Like something really heavy on his mind
It is heavy
I'll have to pull out Ryan myself
Ryan, he's gone
He's gone
We let him go, just like that
Well, according to Jeff, he was on last night
They showed up with a release sign by the DA's office
Somebody was claiming the body
Yeah, somebody named Bristol, I bet
He's the kind of guy who'll pull a stunt like that
A mortuary picked up the body
Which one?
Eastland
There won't be any service here
Our instructions are cremation
And the ashes are to be sent to Chicago
Mr. Ryan's home, I understand
I'm afraid you're going to have to hold on
I'm afraid you're going to have to hold on
I'm afraid you're going to have to hold on
I'm afraid you're going to have to hold on
I'm afraid you're going to have to hold off on the cremation
Oh, I'm sorry, Dr. Quincy, but I have specific orders
And I have the authority vested in me by the county
To get a court injunction if necessary
Now, we're both reasonable men
We don't want trouble, do we?
No, of course not
Then just send the body to the morgue
No, I won't do that, sir
I can't
Not without written permission from his daughter
His daughter?
Yes
You saw her? You talked to her yourself?
Yes, of course
What does she look like?
Well, she's young, very attractive in a theatrical sort of way
Yes, that's the girl
What's her address?
Let's see
Here, there's the order
She filled it out, but I can't quite read her handwriting
Oh, boy, it's back to the Yemen
Yes
You're a figger
You act like you don't remember me
Yesterday you grabbed me the car in his office
Yes
Now, that girl who ran out of here
She had a key to Mike Ryan's apartment
She used to come here a lot, right?
Yes
Was she his daughter?
Come on, you're an apartment manager
You've seen this operation a million times
What was she, his girlfriend?
Yes
What's her name?
Dr. Quincy
Dr. Quincy
Dr. Quincy
Dr. Quincy
Dr. Quincy
Dr. Quincy
Dr. Quincy
Dr. Quincy
Yes
Tell me everything you know about her, will you?
I know she was a dancer
Did she dance at one of his clubs?
The Lido, the Crescent
Yes
Thank you
Now I remember
Yes
Weren't you once a ballet dancer?
Now
I knew you could say it
I knew you could say it
That's just eyeball stuff, man
Touching kinds out front
Oh, no, I didn't come in here
See, I'm looking for somebody, a girl
Well, she's a dancer
And I heard she works here
She looks like this
That's Angie, baby
Was she here tonight?
Ain't seen Angie since Mike got the hot foot
Well, do you have any idea where I might find her?
Talk to Gladys, they were chums
Gladys? Where's Gladys?
Just out there, ma'am
Thank you
What do you want?
Gladys?
Well, that ain't Shirley Temple
Come on in
I'm Dr. Quincy, I'm with the carnival
So what are you looking at me for?
Well, I'm looking for Angie
I don't know any Angie
But your disc juggie said you were pals
Oh, Angie, yeah
She had been around here for a long time
Well, do you know where she is?
She moved
Well, it's very important that I talk to her
Hey, look, I gotta go on, see
So do you mind if I loosen up?
Chapter 10, true writer?
Yeah
I'm just doing this to see what it's all about
Oh, no
Look, when's it coming out?
As soon as anybody will print it
Well, you know, a couple of publishers,
personal friends of mine
And I know Johnny Carson personally, too
And you get on one of those talk shows
You know, you sell a lot of books
Say, you're not putting me on, are you?
Oh, I wouldn't do that
Waiter!
Coming!
Say
Say
Why don't you leave your name and where you can be reached?
In case I get in touch with Angie
I'll leave you my card
Personal number
Say
I'm coming!
What's Johnny Carson really like?
Oh, he's terrific
He really is
I knew it
All right, honey, they're all yours
If you can wake them up
Hey
Would you hand me that towel, please?
Oh, sure
Thank you
Hey, you know, you keep looking like that
You're gonna have to pay a cover charge
Oh, sorry
Oh, Monahan gets the spaghetti and the cannelloni as a sandwich
Thank you
Enjoy, gentlemen
Thank you, Danny
Hi, Peg, how's it going?
I'm busy
Hey, what's good for the night? I'm starved
Oh, uh, sautéed rodent with a touch of basil
Sautéed rodent? What's the matter with him?
Hey, Ed, taking a good picture, lady?
I need a refill
Listen, Monahan, I'm trying to get Ryan's body back
Excuse me, I just lost my appetite
What is it, sir? My deodorant? What have I got to play? What is this?
Oh, they're all pretty upset
What about the Ryan man? I want to settle it, too
No, it's more than that
It's Dr. Aston
What about him?
He's resigned
Wednesday nights
I'm going back to a strater
