00:00Once upon a time, there were three little girls who went to the police academy, one
00:07in Los Angeles, one in San Francisco, the other in Boston.
00:16And they were each assigned very hazardous duties.
00:22But I took them away from all that, and now they work for me.
00:26My name is Charlie.
01:56Hi.
02:12Do you work here?
02:13No.
02:14Um.
02:15Uh.
02:16Why, my daddy and brother are inside.
02:17That's good.
02:18Oh don't, don't go in there.
02:30Why not?
02:35All right. Get her in the van. Hold on to her. Hold on to her. Get her in.
02:58Stupid, Cliff. Real stupid. But he wasn't going to give us the money.
03:01Let's go. Ow! Oh, shoot. Never mind. Let's go.
03:21Ow! That's all right, Harley. They need her.
03:25Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt her.
03:31You all right? Yeah.
03:36Keep your eyes on the road.
03:42I'm sorry. You just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.
03:46We'll turn you loose as soon as we can. Sure.
03:50We don't mean you no harm. Trust me.
04:06Jill's car was found just before noon. The old man was shot and killed inside the store.
04:12Are you sure it was Jill's car, Charlie? I'm afraid so, Chris.
04:17Well, maybe she ran out of gas. Maybe she had engine trouble.
04:21I wish that's all it was. Bosley, you have the file on Sam Mason?
04:26Yeah, right here, Charlie. Who's Sam Mason?
04:29He's an escaped killer who was convicted of murdering his wife.
04:33And the owner of the store they robbed identified Mason before he died.
04:38I don't see what that has to do with... Chris, I'm afraid he's taken Jill as a hostage.
04:44Now, Mason has two sons believed to be with him and to have helped him in his escape.
04:49I suppose they have records, too. One boy is retarded, never been in any trouble.
04:54The other one, Clint, had minor brushes with the law starting at age 12. Shoplifting, that sort of thing.
05:00And then at 15, he stole a car to get the retarded boy out of an institution.
05:07At 19, he robbed a liquor store.
05:10And then he was sent to the same prison where the father was serving time on an earlier conviction for robbery.
05:16Where his father taught him everything he knew.
05:18We have to do something. We have to find her, Charlie.
05:21We'll all do our best, Chris. Do you have the map, Bosley?
05:25Yes, Charlie, I've got it right here.
05:29Now, the police have set up roadblocks east and south.
05:32What about this area?
05:33That's a wilderness area. There are no roads in there, and the mountains are impassable.
05:37Wouldn't that be the best place for them to go?
05:39It might, if they could get through there with a vehicle, but they can't. Too treacherous.
05:44Besides, if they go south, they'll be only a few hours to the Mexican border.
05:48Well, maybe when they get to the border, they'll let Joe go.
05:55We hope so, Chris.
05:57We have to do something. Isn't there something we can do?
06:00We could go up there and see if we can help in the search.
06:02Fine.
06:03Now, the highway patrol and sheriff are working out of a little town called Dry Falls.
06:08The store is just west of there.
06:10What are we waiting for?
06:17Kelly, are you still there?
06:19Yes, Charlie.
06:21Kelly, we know that Sam Mason is a vicious killer. His sons may be worse.
06:27One man has already died since the escape.
06:30The Masons don't have very much left to lose.
06:34What are you trying to say, Charlie?
06:37I think Charlie's trying to say, don't let Chris get her hopes up too high.
06:44You don't think she has a chance?
06:46Not without some kind of a miracle.
07:05You sure, boy?
07:06Yes, sir. I'm sure.
07:19Blow a tire before we get to the supplies. We've had it.
07:22I won't. I've been right so far, ain't I?
07:26Well, are we there yet?
07:29Not yet. It won't be long.
07:37What's your name?
07:41Jill.
07:43Jill? That's a pretty name.
07:48My mother's name was Jenny. That's a pretty name, too, isn't it?
07:54It sure is. Where's your mother now?
07:58Where's your mother now?
08:03Dead. Somebody killed her.
08:08They said it was Daddy, but...
08:12But my brother and me don't believe him, so...
08:17We went and got him.
08:20You went and got him from where?
08:23Jail.
08:24Button your mouth, Harley.
08:30Your own sons broke you out of prison?
08:34Don't you know they can go to prison for that, too?
08:40Don't you care about them?
08:42She's about the only one in the world who does care about us.
08:55You can't get away.
08:58Oh, yes, we can.
09:00My boy Clint, he figured it all out.
09:04Nobody's supposed to be able to get through the mountains this way.
09:08But I found a way.
09:10The police will be looking for you at the highway.
09:13How about that, Clint?
09:15Why, the police are gonna be looking for us on every highway headed south into Mexico.
09:22And that's why we're going north.
09:26As soon as we get through these mountains, there's nothing between us and Canada.
09:31You're going to Canada?
09:33Yeah, Canada.
09:36And we get to build a log cabin and go fishing and go swimming without no clothes on.
09:52She's little like Mama, too, huh?
09:58Yeah.
10:00He can trust you just about as far.
10:04I trusted Mama.
10:07And I trust Jill.
10:11Units 23, 45, and 48, set up a roadblock on State 16. Ten-four.
10:25Make matters worse, there's a storm heading this way.
10:28If it reaches this far, it'll put the aircraft out of commission.
10:31Now, Mason's boys are bound to service on a highway somewhere between here and Mexico.
10:36Well, shouldn't somebody be searching up there?
10:38No, they wouldn't go up there.
10:40The road only goes so far. Those mountains are impassable.
10:43Now, Mason and his boys have got to be in this area.
10:46Now, they pulled a robbery.
10:48You don't need any money in this wilderness area.
10:51What did the air surveillance show?
10:53Miss, please.
10:54Sheriff.
10:56Look, they've got her sister.
10:59We've got one plane searching the area.
11:02But there's just no place to go up there.
11:05I'm sorry.
11:10Well, Mason couldn't have just disappeared.
11:13And there must be something special about that area up north.
11:17There's got to be a way through those mountains.
11:19That only Sam Mason knows about.
11:23Look, I could take a run up to the state capitol.
11:26Maybe there's some old maps of the area in the archives.
11:29Good idea.
11:30Okay, I'll get going.
11:40I'll get going.
12:10I'll get going.
12:40Oh, hey. Good job.
13:05Looks like your luck just ran out.
13:25What's Clint going to do to her, Dad?
13:29Why don't you go watch, Harlan?
13:58Get out of there.
14:13Help me.
14:15Help me.
14:27I'll teach you to run away.
14:29Don't.
14:43Pull me up, Harlan.
14:45Leave her.
14:49Daddy, there are snakes down there.
14:57There sure are.
14:59A whole bunch of them.
15:03Help her up, Harlan.
15:05It's all right, boy. She's yours.
15:06Just not quite yet.
15:10Come on.
15:11Come on.
15:16Are you all right?
15:18I guess so.
15:19Why, you shouldn't go running off by yourself like that.
15:22You was lucky we was here to help you.
15:42All right.
15:46Nothing?
15:47Yeah, they're someplace.
15:50It's only a matter of time.
15:54Look, we're doing everything we can.
15:56Except searching up north.
15:58The plane's on its way back from there now.
16:00Spotted nothing, as I thought.
16:02Look, I know Sam Mason.
16:04He's not about to go into that area.
16:06He won't cut himself off without a way out.
16:16Harley, hand me a screwdriver.
16:19Harley!
16:21Where is he?
16:22Checking on the girl.
16:24She talk meant to leave her loose.
16:28Leave the boy alone.
16:30She's liking him too much.
16:33Don't hurt him.
16:34Keeps her busy.
16:38We ought to just finish with her and leave her.
16:40You just won't think ahead, will you, Clint?
16:45Never have.
16:47Look, if the cops catch on, they won't blow the van apart if she's in it, will they?
16:52I don't like them being alone with her.
16:55Oh, how about that?
16:57You don't like it.
16:59Finish the tires.
17:02I'll check on her.
17:12I'm going to go fishing.
17:15I'm going to catch a fish this.
17:18This big.
17:21Mom's going to cook it.
17:25No, no, you cook it.
17:29No.
17:30No, I won't.
17:31Not with my hands tied like this.
17:33Untie my hands.
17:36It hurts.
17:38Yes, it hurts.
17:40Yes.
17:42No.
17:44Dad said that I wasn't supposed to, and good boys always do what their dad tells them.
17:52I get to have some deers as pets.
17:56And every time I go outside, they're going to come up to me.
18:01And I'm going to have a dog, and he's going to have puppies.
18:07And I won't squeeze them very hard until they're big dogs.
18:16But I will, I always do.
18:19No, no, you won't.
18:20I always do.
18:24No.
18:27I'll show you how to love them without hurting them.
18:34How are you going to show me?
18:36Well, I'll show you how to pet their fur and hold them and not hurt them.
18:44How?
18:47Well, I can't show you unless you untie my hands.
18:53You're trying to trick me.
18:57I'm not.
19:03I can pet them and I won't hurt them.
19:07That's right.
19:09Harley.
19:12I'm sorry.
19:15I'm sorry, Dad.
19:22Not the belt.
19:24Don't whip me.
19:27I'm sorry.
19:29Don't beat me.
19:35Damn you, Mama.
19:36Why couldn't you leave that boy alone?
19:38Why did you have to go mess with his head?
19:39He was being good.
19:42The ropes are hurting my wrist.
19:55Yeah.
20:02Ain't no place for you to go.
20:12Van's ready.
20:28Still nothing?
20:30Is there any place else I can look?
20:32Maybe, if I knew what you were looking for.
20:35I don't know myself.
20:36Just something unusual.
20:39I grew up in this state and I can tell you that very little is known about that area.
20:43Few people have gone through that we know about and there are no government records at all.
20:49Well, I thank you.
20:53I wish I could help. I really do.
20:55Thanks.
20:57I don't know if this is any help, but...
21:00If what's any help?
21:01Well, I used to go with this guy who was a grad student in history at the university.
21:05He wrote his thesis on the Mormons and according to him, they looked that part of the country over pretty well before they settled in Utah.
21:11Did they leave any records?
21:13I remember him saying there were a lot of old maps and journals on file at the university library.
21:18Thanks, Lee. Thanks a lot.
21:20Good luck.
21:25Anything new on your end, boss?
21:27No, I'm afraid not, Kelly.
21:29How's Chris holding up?
21:30Well, pretty well so far.
21:32She's trying to convince them to search north of the main highway.
21:35Good. How's Tiff doing?
21:37Well, she struck out at the state capitol, but she did come up with a lead.
21:41She's on her way to the university now and there's a chance they may have something.
21:44Oh, that's good.
21:46Listen, Kelly, tell Chris to hang on.
21:49Jill's okay. I can feel it.
21:51I know.
21:53I can feel it too, boss.
21:56Bye.
22:05And you know what else?
22:08She used to bake a cake for me and daddy and my brother.
22:16Chocolate.
22:18Can you bake a cake?
22:22But probably not as good as she could.
22:25I bet you can.
22:28Would you bake a cake when we get to Canada?
22:33I sure will.
22:36Harley, I'm tired of hearing about that stupid cake and that cabin and that stupid deer and a mother that never was.
22:43She wasn't any good, Harley.
22:45She wouldn't stay home with us.
22:49So I don't want to hear it anymore.
22:54She left because I was a bad boy.
23:00No, that's not true.
23:02I'm sure your mother loved you very much.
23:05And your daddy wasn't lying when he said he'd take you to Canada.
23:08You shut up!
23:15I'm going to bake you a cake.
23:17I said for you to shut up!
23:18You know your ride's about over and you ain't going to be baking nothing.
23:21Ever.
23:48Hold it, the road's playing out.
23:50You know why?
24:05I said hold it!
24:15There's a rock behind the car, Harley.
24:17Move it.
24:19Be careful.
24:33There's not much to hold on to.
24:58It looks like a real big rock.
25:13I don't care how big it is, move it.
25:27Can you do it?
25:29Are you afraid to help him?
25:31The boy can do it.
25:32And you can afford to lose him.
25:35Keep quiet.
25:49I did it!
25:51Daddy, I did it!
25:54And get on back in here.
26:22I guess I must have taken the wrong road.
26:24Well stop, stupid, and figure out where you went wrong.
26:27You're lost.
26:29There's no way through here.
26:34This road going out here and stopping, don't show.
26:38How far off are you?
26:40Couldn't be far.
26:41It's up to you, boy.
27:08Get out of there.
27:29Are you okay?
27:30I'm okay.
27:32Now what are we going to do?
27:34I see you're a great driver.
27:36We'll walk.
27:38To the highway, see if we can get another car.
27:40Harley, give me a hand.
27:42Clint, step out of the van.
27:45Let's go.
27:57This is Dry Falls Dispatch requesting a weather check.
27:59Come in.
28:05Chris?
28:09Oh, no thanks.
28:11I'm pretty coffeed out.
28:17Do you think she's alive?
28:20Of course she is.
28:22I didn't even think that.
28:26You know why she went out there?
28:28No.
28:31There's this little girl in Phoenix.
28:34She was 12.
28:36And she wanted to be a race car driver.
28:40And then they found out that she had leukemia.
28:44So...
28:47So Jill and some of the other drivers wanted to go see her.
28:54Okay.
28:59Don't cry.
29:20A four-wheel drive.
29:23Talk about your luck.
29:25What if the people are there?
29:28What if they are?
29:30Clint, Harley, keep her quiet.
29:53What if they are?
30:11Kelly?
30:12Tiffany, what did you find out?
30:14Well, there is a way through the mountains to the north.
30:17It's an old trail that the Mormons made during the Mormon Wars, an escape route to Mexico.
30:22It's now in what's an old ghost town.
30:24Kelly, somebody else got the same information two months ago.
30:28One of the Mason boys?
30:30Clint.
30:31The lady who's in charge of the stacks identified his mugshot.
30:34Well, at least we know we're on their trail.
30:36How soon can you get back here?
30:38Two hours from the time I get started.
30:41Okay, hurry, Tiff.
30:43Hurry.
30:44I'm coming with you.
31:11They said that the Mormon trail came out right here at the old ghost town.
31:16Now are you going to search that wilderness area?
31:18I mean, if the Mormons can make it, the Masons can make it.
31:21Well, I guess I better have a look.
31:22I'm going with you.
31:23Now, wait a minute.
31:25Look, I'm a private detective.
31:26I can take care of myself.
31:29Besides, it's my sister out there.
31:36Wait here for Tiffany, and we'll catch up with you as soon as we can.
31:40Okay.
31:41Okay, be careful.
31:56Are we almost to Canada yet?
31:59Just about.
32:13What the...
32:26Can't trust her for a minute.
32:27Here, watch her.
32:31Women are always trying to run away.
32:35Don't you want to go to Canada?
32:38She ain't going to Canada.
32:40I guarantee it.
32:42She ain't going nowhere.
33:11Tire tracks.
33:29Doesn't mean it was them.
33:32Doesn't mean it isn't.
33:50Proof?
33:56We've got some planes in the chopper zone up ahead of us.
34:11Dispatch, is Mobile 3 over?
34:13Go ahead, Mobile 3.
34:15Move all search units north.
34:23Looks like they stopped putting up planes for us.
34:42Maybe we ought to stop and hold up till night.
34:44We'll keep going.
34:45It's not that far to the highway, and nobody will be looking for us in this thing.
35:05Yeah, we're on foot.
35:07We got them now.
35:08Not yet, we don't.
35:38Dispatch, this is Mobile 3, over.
35:41Go ahead, Mobile 3.
35:43We found the van wrecked in a gully up near Long Valley.
35:47They are now on foot.
35:50Unless they found another vehicle.
35:52Look, just in case they get up to that other highway, set up a roadblock up there.
35:56I want this area closed off completely.
36:01We'll find him.
36:11He sure is bumpy, huh?
36:14No kidding.
36:16Watch the road, boy.
36:17Yes, sir.
36:30I told you to watch out for them rocks.
36:32I'm doing my best.
36:33Well, as always, that ain't near good enough.
36:35Now keep your mind on business.
36:37That's what I'm doing.
36:51Get her.
36:53Let's leave her, we're not far from the highway.
36:55Get her.
37:25Let's just shoot her.
37:34No.
37:52Get out of the way, Harley.
37:54No.
37:57Shoot him, Clint.
38:00But he's my brother.
38:03He's also in our way.
38:07Harley.
38:18They're gonna shoot you, too.
38:21No.
38:34Hold it.
38:38Ain't that sweet.
38:43Get behind the wheel.
38:48Move.
38:51Not you, Harley.
38:58Move it.
38:59Move it.
39:06All right, let's go.
39:08Just leave them out here?
39:09Oh, yeah, we can.
39:10Forget about them.
39:11Let's go.
39:15No, no.
39:16Daddy.
39:17Daddy.
39:18Don't.
39:19Don't leave me.
39:23He's gonna kill me.
39:27He killed my mother.
39:41It isn't far to the highway if Clint was right for a change.
39:48Don't bust nothing.
39:49How can you just leave your sons out here?
39:51Easy.
39:53What happens to make a man like you?
39:59Oh, yeah.
40:01You another one of them high and mighty ladies like my wife, ain't you?
40:08What happens to make a man like you?
40:10Well, I'll tell you.
40:11First, you start with a no-account woman with eyes for anything in pants, and then you add a half-wit kid.
40:17You wait a couple of years, and you add another kid, and he ain't got no guts.
40:21Who killed a man for you?
40:23I didn't tell him to kill nobody.
40:25You work 4 to 12 every day of your life, but you never have no money because she's busy throwing it away with both hands on fancy clothes and dumb religion.
40:35Well, that wasn't good enough for that high and mighty lady, and so she was gonna cut out.
40:41She took the kids, and she left, and I brung her back.
40:45And she took the kids and left again, and I brung her back again, and this time I put the kids where she couldn't get at them.
40:51Only this time she run off by herself.
40:55And then I brung her back, and I put her in a place where she ain't never gonna be able to run again.
41:04All right.
41:28Right up there.
41:31Let's go.
41:59Well, the highway has to be over that next rise.
42:03What if the map's wrong?
42:05Well, in that case, I don't have much to lose, do I?
42:14Oh!
42:43I'll get ya!
42:45By God, I'll get ya!
43:12Look at that.
43:20They found a four-wheel drive someplace.
43:23Yeah.
43:25Well, let's see where they went.
43:27Even if we find something we don't want to.
43:31Wait a minute.
43:33Look over there.
43:58Oh!
44:21Look over there.
44:22Hurry!
44:43Oh!
45:04Stop it!
45:05Stop it!
45:06You'll kill him!
45:07Your mother would cry if she knew you were doing this.
45:10He made her cry and then he killed her.
45:12You don't want to be like him.
45:14Then there'd be no place for you to live and go fishing.
45:16You couldn't set the gear.
45:18There's no place like that anywhere.
45:21I know a place like that.
45:25But you can't go there if you kill him.
45:31Everybody lies to me.
45:35I haven't lied to you.
45:37Have I?
46:03It's been so long.
46:07Are you okay?
46:08Yeah.
46:23It is nice here.
46:24I told you it was.
46:26He saved my life.
46:27You know, it's important to me that he have the best care possible.
46:31Oh, here he comes.
46:39How are you?
46:41Jill, they got a creek and everything.
46:46And they let me go fishing every day.
46:50I got a fishing license with my name on it.
46:54Did you catch anything yet?
46:56Yeah.
46:58And I had to throw them back because it's against the law to keep them unless they're this big.
47:07He's doing fine.
47:09And Jill, you know what else?
47:11What?
47:12They got deers here.
47:14They do?
47:15The deer will come down and eat out of his hand as soon as they get to know him.
47:18Do you make cakes often here?
47:21Not as often as they'd like.
47:24Would I bring him one?
47:27That's against the rules.
47:29But then rules are made for two reasons, to be kept and to be broken.
47:35Bring the cake.
47:36Oh, good.
47:42For you.
47:45Open it.
47:46Go ahead.
47:52Taste it.
47:55Try it.
47:57It's chocolate.
48:05Like my mom made.
48:10Do you want some?
48:12Sure.
48:15Just a sample.
48:16Yes.
48:17There.
