Catch Me If You Can Page #6
Isn't that your silver car
I saw parked out front?
Yeah. One of them.
Well, it takes
my breath away...
an autograph?
...I can hardly wait
to hold you
Feel my arms around you...
Do you have a pen in your room?
...How long I have waited...
You've got the look of love
It's on your face
A look that time
can't erase...
shh.
...Be mine tonight...
Man like you can buy
anything he wants.
...Let this be
just the start
Of so many nights
like this...
He buys a deck of cards
at the hotel gift shop.
...And then seal it
with a kiss...
Well, you want
to see a card trick?
...I can hardly wait
to hold you...
How much did these cards cost?
...Feel my arms
around you...
Oh, 55 cents, I think.
...Waited just
to love you...
And if they sold me downstairs
at the hotel gift shop...
how much would you pay?
I'm sor...
I'm sorry, how mu...
how much would I pay for what?
The entire night.
How much would you pay me
for the entire night?
Cheryl, I...
I really don't know.
...I can hardly wait
to hold you...
Don't be scared.
...How long I have waited...
Make me an offer.
...Now that I have found you
Don't ever go...
$300?
Go fish.
Uh, $500?
Go fish.
$600.
Go fish.
$1,000.
Okay.
$1,000.
Okay.
I'll be right back.
Wait a second.
Where are you going?
I'm going downstairs
to cash a check.
to cash a $1,000 check
at 3:
00am?It's a New York savings and Loan
check.
It's like gold.
They'll cash it.
Don't you think they might get
a little suspicious?
Let me see that.
It's a cashier's check.
Endorse it over to me.
No. I couldn't do that.
see, this check is for $1,400.
We agreed upon $1,000.
Why don't I give you back $400
and you give me that check?
Even better.
The look of love
Is in your eyes...
Does this belong to anybody?
Mele Kalikimaka
is the thing to say...
On a bright
Hawaiian Christmas Day...
This is Hanratty.
Merry Christmas.
Hello, Carl.
Hello.
...That we send to you,
from the land...
Barry Allen, secret service.
I've been trying
to track you down now
for the last couple of hours.
What do you want?
I wanted to apologize
for what happened
out in Los Angeles.
Uh-uh, uh-uh.
No, no,
you don't apologize to me.
Do you always work
on Christmas Eve, Carl?
I volunteered
so men with families
could go home early.
Looked like you were wearing
a wedding ring
out in Los Angeles.
I thought maybe
you had a family.
No. No family.
You want to talk to me...
let's talk face-to-face.
All right.
I'm at my suite at the
stuyvesant Arms, room 3113.
In the morning, I leave
for Las Vegas for the weekend.
You think you're going
to get me again?
You're not going to Vegas.
You're not
in the stuyvesant Arms.
You'd love for me
to send out 20 agents
Christmas Eve
we barge into your hotel,
knock down the door
so you can make fools
out of us all.
I'm really sorry
if I made a fool out of you.
I really am.
Uh-uh, no.
No, listen, I really am.
No, no, you-you do not
feel sorry for me.
The truth is,
I knew it was you.
Now maybe I didn't get the cuffs
on you, but I knew.
Ah, people only know
what you tell them, Carl.
Well, then tell me this,
Barry Allen, secret service.
How did you know
I wouldn't look in your wallet?
The same reason
the Yankees always win.
Nobody can keep their eyes
off the pinstripes.
The Yankees win
because they have Mickey Mantle.
No one ever bets on the uniform.
You sure about that, Carl?
I'll tell you what I am sure of.
You're going to get caught.
One way or another,
it's a mathematical fact.
It's-It's like Vegas.
Well, Carl, I'm sorry,
but I have to go.
Ah. You didn't call
just to apologize, did you?
What do you mean?
You... you...
you have no one else to call.
Oh, ho, ho.
...Morn and night...
You got that burger up?
Yep.
- Hi.
- Hi!
How are you?
...Doo-lang, doo-lang,
doo-lang...
The one
with the wavy hair...
More coffee, sir?
Are you a collector?
Of what?
"Captives of the Cosmic Ray,"
"The Big Freeze"
"Land of the Golden Giants."
I've got them all.
What are you talking about?
Barry Allen.
The Flash.
Wait, kid, kid, kid.
You mean like the comic book?
Yeah, the comic book.
When he's not The Flash.
That's his name, Barry Allen.
Thank you.
Now get this:
He reads comic books.
Comic books!
Barry Allen is The Flash!
Carl, slow down. Slow down.
I don't know what the hell
you're talking about.
He's a kid.
Our unsub is a kid.
That's why we couldn't match
his prints.
That's why he doesn't have
a record.
Now, I want you to contact NYPD
for every all-points juvenile
runaways in New York City.
And don't forget the airports.
He's been kiting checks
all over the country.
But why New York?
The Yankees!
He said something
about the Yankees!
so where are we on the list?
Number 53, "Abagnahlee."
Good morning, ma'am.
We're the FBI agents
who called.
Yes, I've been waiting.
I hope you're all hungry.
I put out the sara Lee.
My husband Jack is a lawyer.
What about your first husband,
Mrs. "Abagnahlee"?
Abagnale, but I prefer
to be called Barnes.
"Frank William Abagnale."
It says here
he was in the service.
Did... Did you two meet
during the war?
Yeah, I lived
in a very small village
in France... Montrichard...
the kind of place
where they never heard
of sara Lee.
Help yourselves.
"Nobody doesn't like sara Lee."
You filled out
a missing person's report
the name of Frank Abagnale Jr.
Is Frankie okay?
You're aware of the fact
that he wrote some checks
on a closed account
Oh, yes.
The police think
he's some type of criminal.
What he did was a felony,
Mrs. Barnes.
It was $1,000.
Half the kids his age are
on dope
throwing rocks at police
and they scared me to death
because my son made
a little mistake.
Huh. A 17-year-old...
boy has to eat
has to have a place to sleep.
We understand, ma'am.
Would you happen to have
a picture of your son?
Oh, yes.
I have his old yearbook.
Okay.
Okay, okay, we, uh...
we need to send out
an all-office teletype.
Our unsub's name is
Frank Abagnale Jr., age 17.
Is Frankie okay?
Is he in trouble?
Ma'am, I'm sorry
to have to tell you:
Your son is forging checks.
Forging checks? Wait!
I'm sure we can take care
of that.
I am working part-time
at the church now.
Just tell me how much he owes
and I'll pay you back.
so far, it's about $1.3 million.
Girl, you really
got me goin'
You got me so
I don't know what I'm doin'
Yeah, you really
got me goin'
You got me
so I can't sleep at night...
Hi, Melanie, how are you?
When you're in the house,
please, just use an ashtray.
Frank, this fondue is so good!
Great. Here, take this for me.
Ooh, good! I love Moet!
Oh, yeah...
Hey. How are you?
You really got me goin'
You got me goin',
got me goin' and goin'...
James, James, please!
Just stay away from the
