[ Typewriter clacking ]

[ The zombies'

"time of the season" playing ]

It's the time of the season

when love runs high

and this time,

give it to me easy

and let me try

with pleasured hands

to take you in the sun to

promised lands

to show you every one

it's the time of the season

for loving

Man:
right over here.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

I just need to

swing by my office for a minute,

and then I'll, uh, I'll meet you

at the property.

[ Engine starts ]

[ The turtles' "she'd rather

be with me" playing ]

Some girls

love to run around

love to handle everything

they see

but my girl

has more fun around

and you know

she'd rather be with me

Uh, yeah, I've seen

the before and after.

Lucky guy is what I am

Well, for that location,

this is the best price

on the market.

She don't fly

Now I'm telling you,

the seller is very motivated.

Bring me an offer.

Some girls

love to run around

they don't think about

the things they do

Man:
uh-huh. Uh-huh.

What? What?

Oh, sorry. Something's going on

here that doesn't look right.

And you know

he'd rather be with you

Look, I've gotta go.

I'll call you later.

[ Receiver clatters ]

Lucky guy is what I am

tell you why

[ Engine starts ]

But my girl

has more fun around

and you know

she'd rather be with

yeah, she'd rather be with

you know she'd rather be

with me

[ Both speaking indistinctly ]

ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba

ah, you know

she'd rather be with me

ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba

ah, you know

she'd rather be with me

ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba

you know she'd rather --

[ Siren wailing in distance ]

[ Dog barking in distance ]

Hey! stop! Stop! Officer!

You trying to

get yourself killed?

Maybe I'm losing it,

but I think I just saw

some man lure a little girl

into his car.

They -- they drove into this

building right here.

[ Static crackles ]

i need backup at 6638 densmore,

suspected child abduction.

[ Static crackles ]

Show me.

He took her up there.

First door, first door.

Police officer. Open the door.

I need to talk to you.

Man:
okay. Okay.

Look, give me a minute,

all right?

[ Pounds on door ]

i need to talk to you now!

I just got out of the shower.

I need to get dressed.

Take off the chain

and open the door first.

Open the door

or I kick it in!

Hamell:
when I saw that

little girl lying there,

something changed inside of me.

Two tours in the marines,

four years as a police officer,

I'd thought I'd seen

everything.

But nothing prepared me

for the brutality

I saw that day.

8-year-old Rosie Hoffman

had been viciously raped

and beaten unconscious

and had stopped breathing.

With 8-year-old Rosie Hoffman,

I felt like god was

giving me another chance.

[ Inhales sharply ]

Come on. Breathe.

[ Shallow breathes ]

Rodney alcala, the deviant who

attacked her, got away.

Because of repeated failures

in the justice system,

he would keep getting away.

[ Siren wailing ]

Three months later,

i made detective

instead of looking for him.

I had no idea that alcala

could turn out to be

one of the most prolific

serial killers in history.

At the time,

i just wanted to kill him

for what he did

to that little girl.

Years later,

I would get that chance.

[ "The dating game" theme

playing ]

Announcer:

Lange:

to the game already.

our first three

eligible bachelors

Woman:

Let's meet our lucky lady

who gets to choose between...

Woman:

[ Cheers and applause ]

Lange:

You're gonna love me, shauna.

Rodney, what are you doing?

You've been locked in there

Ma, you can't hurry art!

He's got a lot of guts

and a lot of equipment,

including an extra long

camera lens.

-Mm-hmm. mwah. Morning, sis.

-Morning.

You could be

one of his models!

Say hello to Rodney alcala!

Alcala, you stupid idiot

So how was your date?

Well, you saw how much

she wanted me.

But, mam, they're my models.

That's why he's trying for this

knott's Berry farm job.

Mam, por favor.

You shouldn't have left

the "L.A. times."

-That was a proper job.

-I couldn't take it,

all that Gore

and car crashes, you know?

I want to take pictures of

famous models and movie stars,

[ Speaks Spanish ]

i don't like the sound of that.

Mwah! bye, sis.

on cash, go see Cal

Hey, pretty lady.

Hey, sweetie.

What? what's that?

Is that for me?

Best mom in the world.

Thank you.

[ Gasps ] for what?

For oversleeping?!

For my first official real job

at the ballet studio.

Ohh! oh.

At least now we can afford to

keep you in the classes, right?

Are you kidding? I love it.

Like, all I have to do

is answer the phone.

"Good afternoon.

Stepping stones ballet."

[ Laughs ] that sounds good.

But me and Becky are going

to the beach first.

Is that okay?

Sure.

Don't forget to wear

your coppertone, okay?

Mmm, you smell good.

It's that new lemon shampoo

you got me.

[ Inhales deeply ]

oh, it's lemony fresh.

Mmm, I might have

to try that myself.

Mm. oh, I'm so glad

you're happy, angel.

[ Chuckles ]

I mean, we certainly can't

deprive the world

of its greatest,

most beautiful ballerina.

Well, I mean, it's --

it's either that

or a famous gymnast.

Reassess your soaring mind,

your mind

you must keep searching

for signs

Rodney:

That's fantastic!

Okay. Now, freeze!

Farrah fawcett style.

That's right. More teeth!

[ Girls laughing,

speaking indistinctly ]

Okay.

Hey, you girls mind
