I'm here to sell for you.

Hi, I'm Cindy.

I'm the perfect female type, 18 to 25.

I'm here to sell for you.

Hi, I'm Cindy.

I'm the perfect female type, 18 to 25.

I'm here to sell for you.

Hi, I'm Cindy.

I'm the perfect female type, 18 to 25.

I'm here to sell for you.

Boy, that was the weirdest thing

I ever did.

He came to D.M.I.

- With the girl, yes. Why?

- A D.M.I. Security card is missing.

D.M.I. Security cards

are always missing.

He took it.

Now, why would Dr. Roberts

take a security card?

We don't have anything to hide, do we?

I think we should search his house

with the Looker device.

I don't want Dr. Roberts upset.

We took his file, his pen and his button

without anybody knowing it.

All right, but be careful.

Tomorrow's the most important

meeting we've had in the past 10 years.

I don't want anything to go wrong.

Is that understood?

All right.

For two days you haven't let me

out of your sight.

I'm flattered, but there is such a thing

as suffocation...

Actress Tina Cassidy

jumped to her death...

... from her West Hollywood

apartment building yesterday evening.

It was the second such death

in two days...

... since the apparent suicide

of actress Lisa Convey the day earlier.

Larry, what's going on?

You're fine, Cindy.

There were four of us

who had that surgery.

Tina and Lisa...

...and me and Susan.

Where's Susan?

Susan had an automobile accident

last week.

You did us all.

That's right, I did.

- But you're fine, Cindy.

- The hell I am.

What have you got me mixed up in?

- I don't know.

- You don't know?

Well, let's get the police in on this.

Let's just not stand here.

- The police are already investigating.

- What are they doing?

Well, they asked me

some questions yesterday.

Fine, sure. I could be dead

and they're still asking questions.

Oh, Jesus, Larry!

You should have told me.

I have a right to know

if somebody's trying to kill me.

- Where are your car keys?

- Car keys?

- I'm gonna go to my parents to get clothes.

- Do you think that's wise?

Do you have a gun?

- A gun?

- Yeah, you know, a gun?

No, I don't have a gun.

Great.

How do you plan on protecting me?

By standing and watching?

Please, Larry, give me the keys.

I'm gonna visit with my parents

for a while, alone, okay?

I got one! I got a duck, I got a duck.

Lucy, that is a decoy.

Well, it sure fooled me.

- Oh, Cindy, what a pleasant surprise.

- What's that?

Mom.

- Your father's gonna be so glad to see you.

- Lucy, no!

- Hi, Daddy.

- You wouldn't wanna shoot old Charlie...

- Cindy, my darling baby. How are you?

- ... he's out of season.

Daddy, I don't know how to...

- Trouble with that car again?

- Car?

I told you that insurance would kill you.

Why don't you listen to me, darling?

No, no, Daddy, it's...

I know, baby. Wait.

Just a minute. I like this part.

Daddy...

Let me ask you a frank question:

Are you feeling out of sorts?

Are you frequently irritable and on edge?

Well, constipation

is nothing to sneeze at.

But there is an easy answer.

Relieve.

Gentle, natural, time-released

laxative capsule. Relieve...

This clock's been

in my family 100 years.

United Van Lines moved it over

a thousand miles without a scratch.

Nice going, United.

United's pre-planning guide

really got us organized.

Our furniture and paintings

for my one-woman show...

- ... all arrived on time.

- Nice going, United.

When we got transferred to Milwaukee,

United gave us...

This Bud's for all you guys

who keep the shiny side up...

... and the rubber side down.

This Bud's for you.

For all the roads you ride

and every place they take you to.

The king of beers is coming through.

Yeah, just for you.

That distinctively clean, crisp taste

that says Budweiser.

Larry?

This Bud's for you.

Larry? The way I look at...

Larry, what happened?

Larry, why are we coming back here?

This is a research laboratory.

I don't think so.

But you told me

you saw the whole thing.

Not quite. They wouldn't show me

one room, the Looker Lab.

- Said it was a maintenance section.

- Well, maybe it is.

I wanna find out what's in that lab.

You can't get past

the security they have.

Are you coming or not?

High drive in the deep left side

and back goes Cedeno...

... to the wall. It's gone.

Hey.

Hey, you. You gotta sign in.

Right.

Twenty-nine runs batted in,

and the Dodgers, who looked to be beat...

- And the time.

- ... have won it in the tenth.

Right.

The Dodgers, three runs,

seven hits and one error.

The Astros, two runs,

nine hits and one error.

The winning pitcher

is Fernando Valenzuela.

- Where'd you get the card?

- I stole it.

- You stole it?

- Come on.

- What if somebody finds out we're here?

- They won't find out. Come on.

- What's that?

- Testing Lab.

Right, I told you

it's just a research laboratory.

It's more than that.

Come on.

We have to check the Looker Lab.

What's the Looker Lab?

What's wrong?

My card won't open the door.

- is now two and 0.

The losing pitcher

is tough-luck Ken Forsch.

And this crowd of 49,642...

... absolutely delirious.

Now, there's tomorrow.

And it will be Nolan Ryan

for the Astros.

We'll just have to wait and see about

who will be the pitcher for the Dodgers.

The post-game show

will be coming right up.

Larry, I think we should get out of here.

You know, we could get into big trouble.

We're already in big trouble.

Follow me.

I can't take this.

What's in here?

I don't know.

I wanna get in the Looker Lab.

Maybe there's a connecting door.

Look out.

He's like a janitor.

Electronic maintenance equipment.

It follows the tracks in the floor.

- Well, that's sweet of you.

- But I'm afraid there's one thing you lack.

- Tell me, mirror, what is that?

- Ravish.

- Ravish?

- Ravish perfume.

Here, put a little behind your ear.

A drop behind the knees would please.

And dab a bit between your toe.

- My toe?

- You never know.

Now I wonder who that could be?

Ravish. It fulfills...

"Looker.

Light Ocular-Oriented

Kinetic Emotive Responses."

- Well, what does that mean?

- Beats me.

Hi, Warrior, isn't this the pits?

I never dreamed when I married Jim

I'd end up with this in my hand.

These poor actors,

having to say lines like that.

They're not actors.

They're computer-generated images.

All I get is this grungy kitchen.

Give me that mop.

Warrior All-Purpose Cleaner

will take charge of this drudgery.

Why, Warrior, you look like

you're ready for the arena.

This is my arena.

But it's just as dumb

as a regular commercial.

Seems like there should

be more to it than that.

Now, you just watch.

Warrior All-Purpose Cleaner

will make short work of this.

Oh, Warrior, you're my guy from now on.

- Well, what about Jim?

- Let Jim get his own warrior.

I want it.

I want it.

I want it too.

They all want it, and they want it bad.

The body, the thickness,

the richness of utterly desirable hair.
