on trying to figure out who pulled

that special effects robbery.

You know, I meet women

like her every day,.

She didn't care

abouty,ou; only,the money,.

I just hope you didn't have

any plans for the next 10 years.

- Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

- You want to make a deal?.

- Yes.

- Then you tell me the truth right now.

- Fine.

- Good.

- All right. She did

take the money, okay?.

I went to herwindow at the bank. She

gave me what I thought was the money...

but when I got home, that bag was

filled with envelopes andpapers.

- She took it.

- Okay.

Come on, Debbie. Now, look.

We don't wanna put you

away, Debbie. We want him.

He thinks I made some

kind of a deal. I didn't.

- Now, I can get 'em to reduce the

charges againstyou to embezzlement-- - No.

"No"?. Are you crazy?. I'm

off-- I'm offering you probation.

I goty,ou eitherway,, but ify,ou

identifyhim,y,ou don't go tojail.

I've got nothing more to say.

Debbie. Now, the next 10y,ears

ofy,our life are on the line.

Believe me. You don't wanna go to jail, be

stuck behind bars, treated like an animal.

And when you get out, you'd be deported.

Eitherway, you'll never see him again.

Look. Why,arey,ouso willing to

sacrificey,our entire life...

- fora guy, who doesn't

give a damn abouty,ou?

I don't believe that.

Look. He turned against you!

Aw. Okay.

Come on. J ust come on.

Claire!

You're a fool.

But it's not fair. He wasn't going to

betray her until Beazley interfered.

The devil's alway,s around to tempt

man. Zack shouldn't have lost faith.

But she didn't. She's going tojail

rather than testify against him.

That's love. Even though she's

furious, she won't turn on him.

That's a sacrifice.

That's half a miracle.

- I want a whole miracle.

- He'll come around.

I know he will. Give us more

time. Please give us one more week.

- I guarantee he'll come around.

- You're guaranteeing me?.

Sorry. Tomorrow's the last night.

At midnight, mankind is a memory.

Where is the assistant district

attorney?. Does he think we have all day?.

Where did Charlie go?. He

said he'd be right back.

I don't know where he went.

Doyou know where he went?.

No. I don't know.

Your Honor, may I approach the bench?.

The cassette now is gone. Someone must

have broken into the room and taken it.

Hey, Debbie. I guess we got

lucky that tape got lost, huh?.

- I was lucky. You didn't need luck.

- What are you talkin' about?.

I told you I'd never break myword.

What doyou mean?.

It's just a shame thatyou

can be tricked, isn't it, Zack?.

Come, now. It was a valiant effort.

Well, she did come through

for him, didn't she?.

But to get him to perform

a great sacrifice...

Well, that was unrealistic, wasn't it?.

All right. Let's drop the act.

He wouldn't flood the world.

I mean, where would everybody go?.

You suppose he'd give them to me?.

I told you. He's going to bring

everyone up. He's going to end life.

It'llbe like man never existed, because

no one will be here to rememberhim.

Except you.

When I think that she risked everything

for me-- She could've gone to jail.

- She's incredible.

- Sounds like a beautiful lady.

- Doyou love her?.

- Yes, I do love her.

Tell her.

- You wait here for me, all right?.

- I'll be here foryou.

Okay.

Hey,! Psst!

- Hi.

- You ready?.

- Yeah.

- Get in.

Giddap.

Debbie,y,our chicken salad's up, and

I think that table's ready, to order.

Debbie.

Yes?.

- Can I talk to you?.

- I can't talk right now.

- What time do you get off?.

- Late. Too late foryou.

Well, we'll wait.

- "We"?.

- I brought the horse and buggy.

- Can I get an order to go?.

- Debbie,y,our chicken salad is still up.

She takes the orders to go.

You want an order to

go?. I'll get you a menu.

- What happened?.

- Some guy just hit a poster shop.

- Second robbery this week.

You want an order to go? - No.

- What's going on here?.

- There was a robbery.

- Look. Have you found Earl and Gonzales?.

- No!

Ohh. What a time for them to disappear.

I wantyou to get this area cleared out.

Excuse me. Police. We have a gunman in the

area, and I have to evacuate the premises.

Let's go.

Clear the street.

People coming out ofthe

restaurant, this way, this way.

Debbie?.

Get out ofhere, Zack.

He's gonna kill me.

Come on. Look. You want

her to stay alive?. Come on.

Come on. That's it. Come on.

Come on.

Come on! Go!

Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on!

Get him back there. Get him back there.

- What areyou gonna do, man?.

- Hey. Back behind the barricade.

That's my girlfriend in there.

What areyou gonna do?.

Wait to hear his demands.

Oh,just wait?. That's it?.

What doyou suggest we do?.

Go in there with guns blazing?.

Come on. Back behind

the barricade, please.

Charlie.

Why is it Ruth and I are the

only ones who give a damn?.

Where have the two ofyou been?.

- We went up to talkwith him.

- You did?.

We beggedhim formore time. He saidno.

Well, he wants $11.48 and a

chopper to fly him to Newark.

Eleven dollars and 48 cents? Newark?

- Who's in Newark?

- His mother.

His mother? That's terrific. We got

another "looney, tunes"on our hands.

Just what the city needs.

He's giving us one

hour to meet his demands.

- Or what? He's gonna

kill that waitress.

- Off!. Get him off the roof!.

- Get him off, man!

Please get him off!.

All right. All right. Off, everybody! Get

them off!. Clear everyone offthat roof!.

Everybody,! Clearthem!

Evacuate the rooftops.

Clear everyone off!that roof!

We're going up to the roof, and if anybody

surprises him on the way, I 'm dead!

There'll be no surprises.

- We cleared positions. We're off the roof.

- That's good. Okay.

- Let's just wait him out.

- I don't agree. We have no cover from here.

- I said we'll wait him out.

- You can't wait him out.

Would you get him behind the barricade?.

The helicopter! Where

is it? Please get it!

It's coming! It's coming.

- Is there a helicopter?.

- What?. Are you kidding?.

No! No! Go get him!

Let go of me!

No! No! No!

Take him out.

No!

Zack?. Zack! Zack. Oh, Zack.
