00:01:06	Where have you been?
00:01:08	Get in. I had to find fireworks.
00:01:11	Let me drive.
00:01:12	Get in. I haven't eaten in 24 hours.
00:01:17	Are you coming or not?
00:01:40	It's too crowded.
00:01:42	I thought you were starving.
00:01:45	Let's go someplace quiet.
00:01:49	Okay.
00:02:02	What are we doing?
00:02:05	Sitting. Listening to music. Talking.
00:02:10	- You seem weird. Is everything okay?
00:02:22	It's July.
00:02:25	- I'm cold.
00:02:32	Fuck off and die!
00:02:41	- What?
00:02:46	Shut up.
00:03:12	Was that car at the drive-in?
00:03:17	I saw that car at Mr. Ed's.
00:03:25	- Do you want me to tell him to leave?
00:03:44	- Was that your husband?
00:03:50	Who was that, Darlene?
00:03:53	Don't worry about it.
00:03:55	- Don't tell me not to worry. Who was it?
00:04:18	Oh, shit.
00:04:23	Let's go.
00:04:28	Now, D.
00:04:42	Get your wallet.
00:04:52	Man, you really creeped us out.
00:05:56	- Vallejo Police Department.
00:05:59	May I have your name
00:06:01	If you go one mile east
00:06:03	a public park,
00:06:07	They were shot with a 9mm Luger.
00:06:11	I also killed those kids last year.
00:06:15	Goodbye.
00:06:35	Spit.
00:06:36	Come on, buddy.
00:06:38	- I swallowed it.
00:06:41	It was minty.
00:06:44	You can't do that. It's not good for you.
00:06:47	Lunch box.
00:06:49	- Why am I not going on the bus?
00:06:54	Okay, you're staying
00:06:58	So, you don't like
00:07:00	- No, not really.
00:07:06	Learn a lot.
00:07:11	There will be a test tonight!
00:07:48	Morning.
00:07:52	- Morning.
00:08:14	How's the coffee today, Shorty?
00:09:03	Editorial in two.
00:09:34	Good morning, gentlemen.
00:09:35	- Good morning.
00:09:37	Well, Stanton, tell Mr. Howe
00:09:39	the draft board piece
00:09:43	Mr. Graysmith.
00:09:46	Horrid.
00:09:47	Horrid.
00:09:48	Not so horrid.
00:09:51	All right.
00:09:56	Paul, what's on the crime beat?
00:09:59	Janice in Datebook left the fondue party
00:10:03	That's a crime.
00:10:04	Have you seen her? Wouldn't kid you.
00:10:07	It may be the beginning of a crime wave.
00:10:10	You need to see this.
00:10:18	Go get the publisher.
00:10:19	"Dear Editor,
00:10:21	"This is the murderer
00:10:22	"of the two teenagers
00:10:24	"and the girl on the Fourth of July
00:10:27	"To prove I killed them,
00:10:29	"I shall state some facts
00:10:32	"Christmas,
00:10:36	"Ten shots were fired.
00:10:38	"The boy was on his back
00:10:41	"The girl... "
00:10:44	Would you read that, please?
00:10:49	"The girl was on her right side,
00:10:51	"Fourth of July.
00:10:53	"One, girl was
00:10:56	"The boy was also shot in the knee.
00:10:58	"Brand name of ammo was Western.
00:11:01	"Here is part of a cipher.
00:11:03	"The other two parts of this cipher
00:11:07	"the Vallejo Times and S.F. Examiner.
00:11:10	"I want you to print this cipher
00:11:14	"In this cipher is my identity.
00:11:16	"If you do not print this cipher
00:11:19	F- R-Y, "First of Aug '69

00:11:38	Is it me,
00:11:43	Today's August first.
00:11:45	He wants his code
00:11:47	If the Examiner doesn't have
00:11:50	Al, this man is talking about
00:11:52	And not running this
00:11:54	If we run it, we might be setting
00:11:56	Oh, come on, now, it's newsworthy.
00:11:58	Well, giving some sick bastard
00:12:00	what does that say to people?
00:12:01	Back up. Is this Vallejo story true?
00:12:04	- Paul?
00:12:08	Yeah, I cover crime in Vallejo.
00:12:11	Let's shoot the code and call SFPD.
00:12:13	If it turns out to be real,
00:12:17	All right.
00:12:19	Graysmith,
00:12:22	Oh, yeah.
00:12:30	Hi, this is Paul Avery
00:12:32	I'm looking for someone to
00:12:36	Thank you.
00:12:37	Sergeant Mulanax.
00:12:39	Sergeant, Paul Avery from
00:12:40	I just wanted to check
00:12:42	if you had an unsolved
00:12:44	on Christmas and
00:12:46	Shit.
00:12:48	You guys got one, too?
00:12:51	Confirmed.
00:12:54	Al's on the phone with the Examiner.
00:12:55	They got the same letter
00:12:57	So did Times-Herald.
00:12:58	Christmas, two teenagers
00:13:00	David Faraday and Betty Jensen.
00:13:02	July fourth,
00:13:05	I think it's "Mayhew. "
00:13:06	The murder weapons?
00:13:08	Ballistics, everything he said
00:13:11	I mean, I think the Times-Herald's
00:13:14	The Examiner's going,
00:13:17	I say let's go front page.
00:13:22	Robert! We need the cartoon.
00:13:26	- You're not finished?
00:13:29	Thieriot's still here.
00:13:31	Really?
00:13:33	The first edition
00:13:39	Give us a sec.
00:13:44	Okay, re-plate.
00:13:46	We'll go on page four.
00:13:50	What do you say, 20 bucks
00:13:53	He won't give his name.
00:13:57	Morti's? Anyone?
00:13:58	- That's where I'm heading.
00:14:27	Put those on my desk. Turn on the light.
00:14:41	Grab your book.
00:14:46	Now go get your jammies on.
00:14:50	All right, people, listen up.
00:14:52	The cipher's broken into three sections,
00:14:58	No breaks between the symbols
00:15:00	No numbers or clues
00:15:03	And you got symbols
00:15:06	Greek, Morse code, Navy semaphore,
00:15:17	- Hey, take a gander at this code thing.
00:15:25	You wanna give it a go?
00:15:29	Guy who used to sit there
00:15:32	Now he's doing public television.
00:15:37	Paul Avery.
00:15:40	Robert Graysmith.
00:15:46	You were right, by the way.
00:15:48	Who cracked it?
00:15:49	A history teacher
00:15:51	"I like killing people
00:15:55	"It is more fun
00:15:59	"because man is the most
00:16:03	"Something gives me
00:16:06	"It is even better
00:16:10	"The best part of it is that when I die,
00:16:14	"I will be reborn in paradise.
00:16:17	"And all that I have killed
00:16:20	"I will not give you my name
00:16:24	"or stop my collecting of slaves
00:16:28	Methinks our friend's
00:16:30	I heard he even sent Vallejo
00:16:34	- What is that at the bottom?
00:16:36	Maybe an anagram.
00:16:54	How does one do that?
00:16:58	I like puzzles. I do them a lot.
00:17:01	How did you know
00:17:05	Dangerous animal.
00:17:07	Dangerous animal.
00:17:10	What dangerous animal?
00:17:20	- Paul.
00:17:22	- Editorial, now.
00:17:26	Another letter.
00:17:28	More of the same.
00:17:32	He taped a flashlight to the gun.
00:17:36	And he gave himself a name.
00:17:59	You know this used to be
00:18:03	But at some point,
00:18:04	the county decided that the land
00:18:07	So they flooded it.
00:18:10	- But there's an entire...
00:18:14	We were here last spring, remember?
00:18:16	Oh, yeah.
00:18:24	Somebody else is here.
00:18:26	It is a public park.
00:18:30	I think he's watching us.
00:18:33	Well, we're very good-looking.
00:18:40	Where'd he go?
00:18:45	He went behind that tree.
00:18:46	All right. So he's taking a leak.
00:18:56	He's coming towards us.
00:19:00	Oh, my God, he has a gun.
00:19:03	Don't move.
00:19:04	- I want your money and your car keys.
00:19:08	We're not gonna do anything, okay?
00:19:09	We're gonna cooperate.
00:19:17	Here.
00:19:20	You're welcome to everything I have.
00:19:26	If there's anything else
00:19:29	Maybe I could write you a check?
00:19:34	Okay, I could give you
00:19:37	You know, I might be able to help you.
00:19:40	Even more than you might think.
00:19:42	He's a sociology major.
00:19:45	Pre-law, actually.
00:19:50	Oh, keys.
00:19:52	You know, I'm sorry, I don't know exactly
00:19:54	They might be on the blanket.
00:20:02	Here's the keys.
00:20:05	Don't get up.
00:20:07	I want her to tie you up.
00:20:13	Okay.
00:20:34	You know, if he comes any closer,
00:20:37	- Don't get any ideas.
00:20:39	I killed a guard
00:20:42	I'm not doing anything, okay?
00:20:44	I'm not afraid to kill again.
00:20:48	Look away.
00:20:56	What was the name of that prison?
00:21:02	Hey, you said it was in Montana, right?
00:21:06	I'm taking your car.
00:21:08	I'm going to Mexico.
00:21:10	We didn't complain
00:21:12	Okay, you have everything that I have.
00:21:14	We have done everything
00:21:17	It's okay. It's okay.
00:21:19	She tied you loose, didn't she?
00:21:24	Get on your stomach
00:21:26	Okay.
00:21:29	We could freeze.
00:21:39	Okay, you all done?
00:21:42	You know,
00:21:44	was that thing even loaded?
00:21:57	It's okay.
00:21:59	This is all gonna be okay.
00:22:30	Dispatch, this is 43L2,
00:22:34	I've got an abandoned white
00:22:52	Napa Police Department.
00:22:54	I want to report a murder.
00:23:00	They are two miles north
00:23:03	They were in a white
00:23:08	I'm the one that did it.
00:23:10	43L2 has a male victim with him.
00:23:12	Piner's ambulance
00:23:16	Boy lived, the girl didn't. Again.
00:23:18	God, can you imagine
00:23:21	Writing the dates on the side of the car.
00:23:22	We got two Vallejo killings,
00:23:25	What the hell is he doing out of Vallejo?
00:23:27	Sweet mother of Christ,
00:23:31	Kid at the lake.
00:23:33	This is what he said
00:23:35	God, that's a hell of a get-up.
00:23:36	- Paul, what are you doing?
00:23:38	Now I just got to type it up.
00:23:40	Type it up?
00:23:42	We've got to read it.
00:23:46	- What's that?
00:23:49	What's the story with the kid?
00:23:51	He seems a little touched
00:23:53	- Graysmith?
00:23:54	He's a fucking boy scout.
00:23:56	He doesn't smoke,
00:23:58	- And he's back.
00:24:00	"Man is the most
00:24:01	I knew that
00:24:03	The Most Dangerous Game.
00:24:05	It's a movie about a Count
00:24:08	People.
00:24:09	The Most Dangerous Game.
00:24:12	- Who's that?
00:24:14	Zaroff? With a "Z"?
00:24:19	And that will be
00:24:21	We've got curfews in effect tonight
00:24:23	Napa, Solano, Contra Costa,
00:24:28	So please, everyone, stay safe.
00:24:30	Vic in San Francisco, you're on the line.
00:24:33	Heck no,
00:24:37	What scares me
00:24:39	with their free love and weird clothes.
00:24:41	We've got Alfred from Vacaville.
00:24:43	You know, I think
00:24:46	It's not just farm kids.
00:24:47	These are nice, clean-cut young people.
00:24:49	Hey, nobody's downplaying
00:24:52	Well, that last guy was.
00:24:54	We have good solid communities
00:24:57	Unlike in the city where you have
00:25:01	Well, you bring up a good question.
00:25:04	Amber from Oakland,
00:25:06	I don't really know,
00:25:07	but I thought that code
00:25:10	But I think the bigger problem
00:25:13	anything that the Zodiac
00:25:15	That they're just printing
00:25:18	Well, the Zodiac did demand
00:25:21	or he'd kill more people.
00:25:22	Yeah, but he would have
00:25:24	whether they printed it or not, I think.
00:25:25	An interesting point.
00:25:27	So, what do you think he'll do next?
00:25:50	- San Francisco Police Department.
00:25:53	What is your location?
00:25:55	3398 Washington,
00:25:58	One's drunk and
00:26:00	- Is the crime still in progress?
00:26:04	Oh, my God, look!
00:26:29	Nuts!
00:26:33	Whoever this is,
00:26:35	Cabbie's been shot
00:26:38	Well, it wasn't me.
00:26:40	- She can vouch.
00:26:43	You'll pick me up?
00:26:45	Let me just describe
00:26:56	- I just got to sleep.
00:26:59	Walt's on scene, locked up the cab
00:27:01	Seriously, dead asleep.
00:27:04	Crackers.
00:27:09	You ever try Japanese food?
00:27:12	What do you mean, like teriyaki?
00:27:14	- Raw fish.
00:27:18	- I always wanted to try it.
00:27:21	Haven't got around to it.
00:27:39	Evening, gents.
00:27:42	Yeah, third this week.
00:27:45	I got foot patrols going through the park,
00:27:48	The victim's name is Paul Stine.
00:27:52	Suspect fired one shot
00:27:54	Driver's wallet
00:27:56	How'd you know his name?
00:27:58	Leroy, there, came down
00:28:01	Neighborhood's pretty high-end
00:28:02	so I already set up transpo for the cab.
00:28:03	So I already set up transpo for the cab.
00:28:05	- Coroner's here.
00:28:06	Kids who called it in
00:28:10	- Did they hear a shot?
00:28:11	They first saw him in the front seat,
00:28:13	thought he was a drunk
00:28:15	Oldest kid ran downstairs to get
00:28:18	described him as a white male, glasses,
00:28:19	crew-cut, stocky,
00:28:22	Wait, I thought someone said
00:28:24	That's the description
00:28:26	- We already corrected it.
00:28:29	- You guys need anything else?
00:28:31	Thanks. Happy Birthday.
00:28:33	- Wait, it's your birthday?
00:28:36	- That's great. Happy birthday.
00:28:38	- Body or scene?
00:28:41	Dave, looks like he
00:28:44	- We got some blood over here.
00:28:46	Could very well be.
00:28:48	The odd thing is, we also got gloves.
00:28:51	- Suspect's?
00:28:55	- Hey, Pete?
00:28:56	You through over there,
00:28:57	Yeah, I'm all set.
00:29:00	- Who rolled him?
00:29:09	I got a single 9mm casing.
00:29:15	Yeah, Luger.
00:29:17	Nothing from the crowd.
00:29:19	Okay.
00:29:22	who also happens to be
00:29:26	I flag a cab. I give him this address.
00:29:28	Did I give him this address?
00:29:31	Right here.
00:29:35	Washington and Maple.
00:29:59	Lighting's the same over here,
00:30:00	so maybe I see
00:30:03	You don't want any witnesses
00:30:06	He pulls over.
00:30:07	I wait for him to put it in park
00:30:09	and I don't want him
00:30:10	when I shoot him. May I?
00:30:12	He stops, puts it in park, boom.
00:30:14	I shoot him on the right side,
00:30:17	Maybe you've got your hand
00:30:19	All right. So, either way,
00:30:20	I just dumped a quart of blood
00:30:22	- So, why do you get in the front seat?
00:30:25	But he's dead.
00:30:26	You could just reach over the seat,
00:30:28	You don't have to go
00:30:30	So, why'd he get in the front seat?
00:30:33	- I'm an idiot.
00:30:35	You waited for him to put it in park.
00:30:37	- Right. Thank you.
00:30:41	- Can I see that?
00:30:43	I am an idiot.
00:30:47	It's his third fare of the night.
00:30:51	- Animal crackers?
00:30:54	I'm saving those for later.
00:30:56	Fine.
00:31:02	- Are you a reporter?
00:31:06	Sir, I was wondering
00:31:08	one at a time and preferably alone?
00:31:10	They just saw a man murdered.
00:31:12	I understand.
00:31:15	It looked like
00:31:16	Yeah, and he had a rag.
00:31:18	He came around the side of the car
00:31:20	- Did you get a chance to see his face?
00:31:23	Well, sort of.
00:31:26	Did you remember what he looked like?
00:31:30	- Normal.
00:31:32	"Normal"?
00:31:56	"This is the Zodiac speaking.
00:31:58	"I am the murderer of the taxi driver
00:32:00	"over by Washington Street
00:32:04	"To prove this, here is
00:32:07	"I am the same man who did in
00:32:12	"The S.F. Police could have
00:32:14	"if they had searched the park properly
00:32:16	"instead of holding road races
00:32:19	- Gentlemen.
00:32:21	Paul. Where's the shirt?
00:32:24	Right there, boss.
00:32:27	There's your rag the kids talked about.
00:32:29	So he got in the front seat
00:32:31	- Is this on the record?
00:32:33	He confirms
00:32:35	Gets worse.
00:32:37	Robert, do you have a deadline?
00:32:39	What does he mean, it gets worse?
00:32:41	Read the last part.
00:32:43	"School children make nice targets.
00:32:45	"I think I shall wipe out
00:32:48	"Just shoot out the front tire
00:32:49	"and then pick off the kiddies
00:32:52	Jesus Christ, who's got school buses?
00:32:55	- School board.
00:32:57	I'm gonna need elimination prints
00:32:59	Anyone here didn't touch this letter?
00:33:05	On my way back to my desk.
00:33:08	We need to get matches
00:33:10	I'll call Napa and Vallejo,
00:33:11	get the letters up to Sherwood
00:33:13	Dave, just one thing.
00:33:17	Yeah, we got a partial in blood.
00:33:20	- But that is not for publication.
00:33:23	Hey, it's me.
00:33:25	Did he say they got a print?
00:33:29	Partial.
00:33:31	Whoa.
00:33:33	Dude, he wears his gun like Bullitt.
00:33:35	No, McQueen got that from Toschi.
00:33:37	Does he think that Zodiac's
00:33:39	'Cause I think Zodiac's
00:33:41	Jesus Harold Christ
00:33:43	What are you doing?
00:33:44	You're doing that thing,
00:33:46	the thing that I don't like.
00:33:48	- Oh, looming.
00:33:50	In cooperation with SFPD,
00:33:53	without including the threat
00:33:56	We don't want to start a city-wide panic
00:33:58	so I'm asking all of you
00:34:01	Just go about your daily business.
00:34:04	Thank you.
00:34:21	I packed you your carrots
00:34:24	- Dad, you don't have to wait with me.
00:34:34	You know what? You know what?
00:34:39	Come on.
00:34:58	What's that?
00:35:00	Similarities in the lowercase "r's. "
00:35:11	And that?
00:35:13	It is you waiting in the hall
00:35:15	I have to concentrate.
00:35:17	Sorry.
00:35:18	"Sorry" counts as speaking.
00:35:31	There are similarities
00:35:38	We have to release the bus threat.
00:35:41	- It'll screw us.
00:35:44	We just went from
00:35:46	to "Mass Murderer Targets Kids. "
00:35:56	The Zodiac Killer
00:35:59	Confirmation tonight, from the
00:36:02	that in his latest haunting letter,
00:36:04	which takes credit for the murder
00:36:08	the Zodiac has threatened to,
00:36:11	"and pick off the kiddies
00:36:18	If you think you might know
00:36:21	you can call the San Francisco
00:36:48	Press conference is at 4:00.
00:36:51	We're coordinating
00:36:53	and we expect
00:36:55	- What do we really got?
00:36:57	When they can't get anyone
00:36:58	they call the switchboard
00:37:00	You got any hard suspects?
00:37:01	About 90 an hour. I'm up to around 500.
00:37:04	Well, can't you narrow it down?
00:37:05	I would love to,
00:37:07	- Homicide, please hold.
00:37:11	We're gonna need to tell them
00:37:13	How many men can you give me?
00:37:14	Well, right now, it's you and Bill
00:37:16	Yeah, I know, Chief.
00:37:18	Yeah, I know. Where's Armstrong?
00:37:20	He's on the phone with Vallejo.
00:37:22	We're playing catch up, Jack.
00:37:24	I'd like to set up a meeting
00:37:27	I can't. He skipped town.
00:37:28	The only guy who's seen Zodiac
00:37:31	When he was still in the hospital
00:37:34	As soon as he got out, he split.
00:37:36	Really? Why?
00:37:37	I don't think he wanted
00:37:39	Can you send us everything
00:37:41	Well, the road goes both ways.
00:37:44	Now, we need that print
00:37:48	and we should have been in
00:37:50	I apologize.
00:37:52	Who should I talk to in Napa
00:37:55	Talk to Ken Narlow.
00:37:56	We really should have been in
00:37:58	I apologize.
00:38:01	Listen, we're gonna need
00:38:02	Can't help you.
00:38:03	Ken, I don't want to get into
00:38:05	No, no, no, no, no.
00:38:08	The ranger that found the kids literally
00:38:11	All we have are the Wing Walker prints.
00:38:13	The what?
00:38:14	Boot prints to and from the crime scene
00:38:16	were made by size
00:38:18	military-style boots
00:38:22	designed to walk
00:38:24	And you can't buy at a PX
00:38:27	so our suspect could be military.
00:38:29	Did you guys narrow your list off of this?
00:38:30	- Yeah.
00:38:33	I don't know. I don't work in Vallejo.
00:38:35	Great. I'm gonna need photos
00:38:37	Sure, if you send me the handwriting.
00:38:39	I thought Questioned Documents
00:38:41	Nope. Vallejo's got them, not us.
00:38:42	All right.
00:38:45	Forget it. I'll telefax it to you.
00:38:47	We don't have telefax yet.
00:38:48	- Okay, I'll put it in the mail.
00:38:51	And call Mulanax in Vallejo.
00:38:53	- Maybe he can get you a mimeo.
00:38:55	Why don't you just get a photo
00:38:57	We'd have to wait,
00:38:59	We don't have a fax, either.
00:39:01	Look, I'm just trying
00:39:03	Have you called Solano Sheriff's Office?
00:39:04	Why would I call Solano?
00:39:06	Because the two kids that got killed
00:39:10	I thought they were Vallejo.
00:39:11	No, they were over the county line
00:39:13	so you're gonna need
00:39:15	Okay.
00:39:16	Bill.
00:39:18	Can I have a word with you?
00:39:23	Where did you see this guy?
00:39:26	We got the call to circle the scene
00:39:28	Where was he?
00:39:30	On Jackson. Heading east.
00:39:33	And this is three minutes
00:39:35	Give or take. Yeah.
00:39:36	- And you were heading east or west?
00:39:38	All right, so you're
00:39:41	So the cab was one block
00:39:44	- Correct.
00:39:46	- Of course we slowed down.
00:39:47	Listen, Dispatch said
00:39:50	That was corrected.
00:39:51	No, but at the time
00:39:54	This guy was white.
00:39:56	Right, not in a hurry.
00:39:58	Lumbering?
00:40:02	- Shuffling.
00:40:06	Yeah, that's all correct.
00:40:08	Listen, it was dark.
00:40:11	The guy was wearing a dark jacket.
00:40:13	He would have been covered in blood.
00:40:17	Did you stop him?
00:40:20	Did you talk to him?
00:40:23	- Yes? No?
00:40:26	You need to get with a sketch artist.
00:40:27	We have to put out
00:40:33	Five persons have been murdered
00:40:36	and in each case the killer...
00:40:38	"I shall wipe out a school bus
00:40:41	San Francisco police...
00:40:44	...to see the Stones in concert
00:40:47	The new letters
00:40:49	the City room of the
00:40:52	Looming. No looming.
00:40:55	- Have you considered the water theory?
00:40:58	Geographically, every attack
00:41:01	- or a water-based name.
00:41:02	Lake Berryessa. Blue Rock Springs.
00:41:05	Wash-ington and Cherry?
00:41:09	You think?
00:41:11	No.
00:41:12	I'm reading this book,
00:41:13	Homicide Investigation
00:41:15	- "Leymone. "
00:41:17	- so I'm looking for patterns.
00:41:19	You can't think of this case
00:41:21	- Why not?
00:41:24	Solano, Vallejo, Berryessa, and here.
00:41:27	Not a single usable print
00:41:31	How does our master criminal come
00:41:34	I mean, assuming the gloves are his,
00:41:37	he shoots the cabbie
00:41:39	So it's not his print?
00:41:40	Maybe, maybe not.
00:41:42	- The point is the first attack...
00:41:45	They both die.
00:41:46	From there on out,
00:41:49	- Not for lack of trying.
00:41:51	Mageau lives, Ferrin dies.
00:41:55	He gets so caught up with the women
00:41:58	Plus, they're all couples
00:42:00	- Paul Stine is not.
00:42:02	Single, male cab driver
00:42:05	Doesn't fit.
00:42:07	So, why does Zodiac kill him?
00:42:12	He's breaking the pattern.
00:42:23	Yeah?
00:42:24	Someone claiming to be Zodiac
00:42:28	He says he's gonna call in on Jim
00:42:32	On television?
00:42:33	He wants Melvin Belli on
00:42:35	All right. All right.
00:42:40	Animal crackers?
00:42:41	Glove box.
00:42:43	Are these windows bulletproof?
00:42:45	Yes, Melvin.
00:42:47	This man is a marksman,
00:42:49	could snuff me out
00:42:52	Are you sure you're up for this?
00:42:53	Don't you worry about me, Inspector.
00:42:58	This man has asked for my help.
00:42:59	The man you're worrying about
00:43:02	What are these, cookies?
00:43:05	Dear Lord, do you ever clean this car?
00:43:07	- Shit.
00:43:21	Get him talking.
00:43:24	If you see an opportunity,
00:43:25	we want you to suggest
00:43:28	You'll be tracing the call?
00:43:29	Pacific Telephone says you need to
00:43:32	We can do that, can't we, Jim?
00:43:37	Fifteen seconds. Clear the set.
00:43:46	Here you go, you drunken reprobate.
00:43:48	We interrupt our regular program
00:43:52	Welcome to this special edition
00:43:54	in which we are joined
00:43:56	who the Zodiac Killer
00:43:59	Finish up, buddy, and put it in the sink.
00:44:01	- Good morning, Melvin.
00:44:04	So, the phone lines are open.
00:44:08	Here to help, Jim.
00:44:09	Yes. Here to help.
00:44:11	And we ask the public not to call in,
00:44:25	I saw your Star Trek, by the way.
00:44:28	A shame about the show.
00:44:30	Good people.
00:44:32	You know, I've often thought of
00:44:36	What was your character's name?
00:44:37	- Gorgon.
00:44:41	Roll the tape. Get the tape.
00:44:43	Jim, we have a call. We're going live.
00:44:46	Hello?
00:44:51	Hello? This is Melvin Belli.
00:44:55	Who am I speaking with?
00:44:57	This is the Zodiac speaking.
00:45:02	Is there something I can call you
00:45:08	Sam.
00:45:10	- Sam.
00:45:12	Sam, do you think
00:45:16	Medical, not mental.
00:45:18	Do you have health problems?
00:45:20	I'm sick. I have headaches.
00:45:22	Headaches?
00:45:24	I have headaches, too,
00:45:25	but a chiropractor stopped them
00:45:28	I think I can help you, Sam.
00:45:32	Sam?
00:45:35	He knows they're tracing his calls.
00:45:41	Sam, we'd like you to know
00:45:46	It's a long, difficult process
00:45:55	Sam?
00:45:59	We're not tracing these calls.
00:46:03	Okay.
00:46:04	Sam, you need to tell me
00:46:08	I don't want to go to the gas chamber.
00:46:10	I have headaches.
00:46:12	That is fucked up!
00:46:14	You want to live, don't you?
00:46:17	How long have you been
00:46:19	Since I killed a kid.
00:46:22	I don't want to be hurt.
00:46:24	- Why is he calling?
00:46:26	You won't get hurt if you talk to me.
00:46:28	And you're not going
00:46:31	I wouldn't think they would ask
00:46:34	We should ask the District Attorney.
00:46:36	Do you want me to do that, Sam?
00:46:38	Do you want me to talk
00:46:44	What was that, Sam?
00:46:47	I did not say anything.
00:46:49	We heard a scream.
00:46:52	That was my headache.
00:46:55	You sound like you're in
00:46:59	My head aches. I'm so sick.
00:47:04	I'm gonna kill them.
00:47:05	- Oh, okay.
00:47:08	Fantastic.
00:47:12	Sam?
00:47:15	- Let's meet and talk. Just us.
00:47:20	How about Old St. Mary's Church
00:47:23	No.
00:47:24	In front of the Daly City
00:47:28	I'll see you there.
00:47:31	Take care of yourself, Sam.
00:47:58	My, my, my.
00:47:59	You fellows certainly know
00:48:07	I don't want to go to the gas chamber.
00:48:10	I kill, I don't get them.
00:48:12	No, it's not him.
00:48:14	It's the voice.
00:48:18	All right.
00:48:21	That's okay. I got it.
00:48:29	They pulled off the trace.
00:48:31	Our Daly City no-show
00:48:34	Oakland PD's operator is sure
00:48:36	the man she talked to
00:48:38	Calmer.
00:48:40	Might have actually been him.
00:48:49	"So I shall change
00:48:52	"I shall no longer announce to anyone
00:48:56	"They shall look like routine robberies,
00:48:59	"and a few fake accidents, et cetera.
00:49:02	"The police shall never catch me
00:49:04	"because I have been
00:49:06	"I look like the description passed out
00:49:09	"The rest of the time
00:49:13	"I shall not tell you what
00:49:18	"As of yet I have left no
00:49:20	"contrary to what the police say.
00:49:23	"I wear transparent fingertips.
00:49:26	"All it is is two coats of airplane cement
00:49:31	"I enjoy needling the blue pigs.
00:49:36	"You were using fire trucks to mask
00:49:41	"Hey, pig, doesn't it rile you up
00:49:43	"to have your nose
00:49:46	"If you cops think I am going to take
00:49:49	"you deserve to have holes
00:49:54	And you need to look at this.
00:49:59	"Take one bag of
00:50:02	"one gallon of stove oil,
00:50:04	"and dump a few bags
00:50:06	- Okay.
00:50:08	Okay. We gotta call the Army
00:50:09	science experiment could actually work.
00:50:12	Another cipher.
00:50:16	- When did these arrive?
00:50:19	Are you planning to publish?
00:50:20	Robert.
00:50:23	We should have a drink.
00:50:29	Thank you.
00:50:32	So, tell me about yourself.
00:50:35	- You married?
00:50:39	What do you do for fun?
00:50:43	I love to read.
00:50:45	- I enjoy books.
00:50:48	Why you been going through my trash?
00:50:53	I'll come back to that.
00:50:56	How did you know
00:50:57	I just guessed.
00:50:59	- Just guessed.
00:51:01	All right, this can no longer be ignored.
00:51:04	- What is that you're drinking?
00:51:08	You wouldn't make fun of it
00:51:20	But who actually cracked the code?
00:51:23	A married couple who like puzzles.
00:51:26	So what's that tell us about the Zodiac?
00:51:28	- He's no expert.
00:51:29	It's just a simple substitution code
00:51:31	like the one that
00:51:33	"A" is one, "B" is two.
00:51:35	We weren't all boy scouts, Robert.
00:51:36	Well, it's not that hard.
00:51:40	In the first cipher...
00:51:42	You actually carry that around with you?
00:51:43	- Why?
00:51:46	What's the most common double
00:51:50	Consonant?
00:51:51	- The double "L."
00:51:52	And what's the one word that we know
00:51:56	- "Kill. "
00:51:58	So the Hardens start looking
00:51:59	which they find here, here, and here.
00:52:01	Each with the same
00:52:04	So now they've got
00:52:06	ending with two symbols
00:52:08	And since they think the whole word
00:52:10	Then you got your "K," you got your "I,"
00:52:13	But how do you go
00:52:15	to figuring out this whole code?
00:52:16	Well, same way I did.
00:52:22	In this book,
00:52:24	the author presents a very simple
00:52:29	Eight of the 26 symbols that
00:52:31	Yeah, but there are non-letter symbols
00:52:33	because there's all
00:52:34	I thought they looked medieval, too.
00:52:38	But then I found a code
00:52:40	Guess what it's called?
00:52:42	The Zodiac Alphabet.
00:52:45	Jesus.
00:52:48	What do you want out of this?
00:52:49	- What?
00:52:51	This is good business
00:52:57	How do you mean "business"?
00:53:02	Hey. Come to bed.
00:53:04	I'll be up in a minute.
00:53:19	- Hello?
00:53:22	There's not many basements
00:53:24	"Basement for future use. "
00:53:26	That's right.
00:53:28	I'll have Vallejo and Napa
00:53:32	- Get some sleep.
00:53:47	"Dear Melvin,
00:53:50	"I wish you a happy Christmas.
00:53:52	"The one thing I ask of you is this.
00:53:56	"I cannot reach out for help
00:53:59	Thank you.
00:54:00	"I am finding it extremely difficult
00:54:04	"and I am afraid I will lose control again
00:54:07	"and take my ninth
00:54:09	Melvin, he's reaching out to you.
00:54:12	Absolutely.
00:54:13	Inspectors, he sent this letter
00:54:17	It is a cry for help,
00:54:20	Which is why
00:54:22	The people have a right to know.
00:54:25	- When did the letter arrive?
00:54:29	It is my belief
00:54:31	because he couldn't get through to me
00:54:34	- He tried to contact you here?
00:54:37	I was out,
00:54:39	Didn't leave a number.
00:54:40	He's kind of crafty like that.
00:54:43	Not at all. But the real story is the letter.
00:54:46	- I'll be back.
00:54:48	She's right this way.
00:54:49	Inspector Toschi, it is my belief
00:54:55	Killing is his compulsion.
00:54:56	Even though he tries to ignore it,
00:54:59	It's in his blood.
00:55:00	Could be.
00:55:47	I didn't mean to scare you,
00:55:53	Really?
00:55:54	If you like,
00:56:00	If you don't mind.
00:56:01	Well, you can't be too careful.
00:56:38	- All done.
00:56:40	No problem. Have a good night.
00:56:48	It's okay.
00:57:43	Are you okay?
00:57:46	Yeah. Yeah, we're fine.
00:57:50	Must have been worse than I thought.
00:57:52	I can give you a lift to a service station.
00:57:57	Okay.
00:58:05	It's okay. Come on.
00:58:15	I didn't know you had a baby.
00:58:19	Oh, is that okay?
00:58:22	The more the merrier.
00:58:33	You shouldn't smoke. It's a bad habit.
00:58:42	- I think we just passed a filling station.
00:58:51	Do you always go around
00:58:55	When I'm done with them,
00:59:00	It's okay.
00:59:03	Before I kill you,
00:59:05	I'm gonna throw your baby
00:59:22	No! Help! Please! No!
00:59:31	She was on the side of the road.
00:59:34	- What happened to her?
00:59:36	I found her like this.
00:59:38	- What is it?
00:59:41	- It'll be okay.
00:59:44	My baby!
00:59:45	- Where's her baby?
00:59:49	Where's your baby?
00:59:57	Jesus.
01:00:06	- You hid it?
01:00:23	"This is the Zodiac speaking.
01:00:25	"By the way, have you cracked
01:00:29	"I'm mildly curious as to how much
01:00:32	"I hope you do not think I was the one
01:00:36	"with a bomb at the cop station,
01:00:38	"even though I talked about
01:00:41	"This is the Zodiac speaking.
01:00:43	"I'd like to see some nice Zodiac
01:00:47	"Everyone else has these buttons
01:00:48	"like peace, black power,
01:00:52	"It would cheer me up considerably
01:00:53	"if I saw a lot of people
01:00:56	- "Please no nasty ones. "
01:00:59	"I shot a man
01:01:02	"Zodiac 12, SFPD zero. "
01:01:05	"The map coupled with this code
01:01:08	"You have until next fall to dig it up. "
01:01:14	"This is the Zodiac speaking.
01:01:15	"I'm rather unhappy because you people
01:01:17	"will not wear
01:01:19	"So, I now have a little list,
01:01:21	"that I gave a rather interesting ride
01:01:23	"for a couple of hours one evening,
01:01:25	"that ended in my burning her car
01:01:28	We're really not gonna run
01:01:30	The new policy. Our brothers in blue
01:01:33	and see how he reacts.
01:01:34	Four letters in three months,
01:01:37	and this is the first mention
01:01:40	That's because he's full of shit.
01:01:44	What do you mean?
01:01:47	You don't know?
01:01:50	Welcome. Please put your stuff down.
01:01:55	Looking for the Modesto Bee
01:01:58	I'm going to stand here
01:02:01	- Left.
01:02:04	- What am I looking for?
01:02:06	Also probably you wanna
01:02:08	You know, never mind. I'll see to that.
01:02:12	Okay, look at this letter again.
01:02:14	Tell me what facts he gives.
01:02:16	- A woman and her baby abducted.
01:02:22	- The car on fire.
01:02:25	look at the article from the Bee.
01:02:29	Seen it yet?
01:02:30	Everything in the letter
01:02:32	And he's done it before.
01:02:35	Officer Richard Radetich,
01:02:38	Zodiac claimed that he shot someone
01:02:40	Couple days after this article came out.
01:02:44	The police already had somebody
01:02:46	Zodiac didn't do it,
01:02:48	because he's in it for the press.
01:02:51	He even stole his symbol.
01:02:52	- What?
01:02:55	If I show you something,
01:02:56	- Who would I tell?
01:03:07	That's the only place
01:03:09	ever appeared together
01:03:11	Ever appeared together
01:03:12	The guy stole his logo off a watch.
01:03:13	How can somebody
01:03:15	He claims he's killed 13 people,
01:03:16	but which ones
01:03:18	There's three in Vallejo,
01:03:23	Bobby, you almost look disappointed.
01:03:27	Chief's pulling everybody off buses.
01:03:30	Business as usual.
01:03:32	Something'll shake loose.
01:03:33	Not a peep in four months.
01:03:36	First he won't shut up and now...
01:03:38	Maybe we drove him underground.
01:03:41	Maybe he's gone.
01:03:44	311 at 582 Haight, cross at Biltmore.
01:03:47	- Happy birthday, Bill.
01:03:59	Does it ever bother you
01:04:02	Does it bother you
01:04:04	- Nobody calls me that.
01:04:07	As governor,
01:04:11	to make sure that Darlene Ferrin's killer
01:04:16	I believe some clues were overlooked
01:04:20	- I believe her murder was premeditated.
01:04:22	Florence Douglas, mayor of Vallejo.
01:04:25	I believe that the police department
01:04:29	or, yes, the inclination...
01:04:30	Sayonara, police endorsement.
01:04:34	Does anyone ever call me names, or...
01:04:38	You mean like retard?
01:04:40	Yeah.
01:04:42	No.
01:04:47	Shit. Fuck. Oh, my God. Jesus.
01:04:55	Tell me that's not a piece
01:04:57	Fuck! Holy fucking crap!
01:04:59	"I feel it in my bones,
01:05:02	"and so I'll clue you in.
01:05:04	"But then, why spoil the game?
01:05:09	Paul, you did call him
01:05:12	in at least one of your articles.
01:05:14	Dave. I want a gun.
01:05:19	A gun?
01:05:25	You're in Herb Caen.
01:05:27	"Paul Avery's investigation
01:05:29	"of a message from the Zodiac warning,
01:05:32	"As a result, several crime newsmen
01:05:36	"'I am not Paul Avery. "'
01:05:38	You should sell these.
01:05:40	It's been a windfall, since
01:05:43	I got the leads
01:05:45	There's one guy down in Riverside.
01:05:47	I'm gonna drive down
01:05:49	- You wanna tag along?
01:05:53	- Really?
01:05:56	He wishes to remain anonymous.
01:06:00	So we're going to get along great.
01:06:11	Hi. Good evening. Hi.
01:06:13	Yes.
01:06:15	Thank you.
01:06:23	You must be Melanie.
01:06:24	- Which would make you Robert.
01:06:26	Glynnis told me lots about you.
01:06:30	- And you have wine, great.
01:06:32	Great. How late am I?
01:06:35	Just a few minutes, really.
01:06:38	Traffic's bumper to bumper.
01:06:41	- Glynnis said you were a cartoonist.
01:06:44	Well, what're you doing at a gun range?
01:06:46	Reading.
01:06:48	Get some more...
01:06:52	So, you work with Glynnis.
01:06:54	- For her, actually.
01:06:56	Oh, well...
01:07:00	My children are terrified of Glynnis.
01:07:02	Me, too.
01:07:07	So, the gun range?
01:07:08	We're... I'm working on...
01:07:11	- Yeah.
01:07:13	- Do you know who Paul Avery is?
01:07:15	He's the writer
01:07:17	Oh, yeah, I saw that on TV.
01:07:18	Well, I work near him
01:07:21	to track an anonymous tipster
01:07:26	Where is Riverside?
01:07:28	It's near L.A.
01:07:30	Oh, wow. I don't think Paul knows
01:07:35	Sounds kind of dangerous.
01:07:39	Yeah. How do you mean?
01:07:42	Well, you said it was
01:07:44	Yeah.
01:07:46	So it could be an ambush.
01:07:51	Don't you think it's kind of stupid?
01:07:53	Yeah, yeah. Well, Paul has a gun.
01:08:00	So, do you know what's good here?
01:08:04	I've never been here before.
01:08:08	The pasta, spaghetti?
01:08:12	Are you ready to order yet?
01:08:15	Yeah, I'll have the penne vodka.
01:08:18	Of course.
01:08:24	Maybe give us another minute?
01:08:28	Do you have any change?
01:08:30	Oh, wait, no wait, hold on.
01:08:33	Nope. That's a penny.
01:08:34	Do you have to make a phone call?
01:08:36	Yeah, you know,
01:08:40	You know, when you said it
01:08:42	- that it is dangerous, and it's...
01:08:44	Stupid. And I just thought
01:08:45	that I should call his wife
01:08:52	I have some change.
01:09:12	Okay. Well, she said
01:09:16	- Good.
01:09:18	Melanie, I should really go home
01:09:25	Is this some sleazy plan
01:09:29	What? No.
01:09:33	I'll get the food to go.
01:09:37	Hello!
01:09:54	Hi! I'm supposed
01:10:15	Anything?
01:10:20	You don't have to stay.
01:10:22	Are you kidding?
01:10:23	This is the most interesting date
01:10:31	- Paul?
01:10:32	- Yes.
01:10:33	Yes.
01:10:35	You're not gonna believe this.
01:10:37	Dave!
01:10:38	In a bizarre twist,
01:10:40	San Francisco Chronicle reporter
01:10:44	claims to have uncovered
01:10:46	regarding the only unsolved homicide
01:10:51	a 1966 Southern California murder,
01:10:54	that Avery now believes
01:10:57	What?
01:10:59	- He didn't call you about this?
01:11:00	The Riverside killer
01:11:01	that I then took personally to
01:11:05	And what did this expert tell you?
01:11:07	What I knew in my gut, Ron.
01:11:09	The handwriting matches Zodiac's.
01:11:12	How'd he get the evidence
01:11:14	He took it to Sherwood
01:11:16	You know how bad this looks?
01:11:18	Hey, how do we know
01:11:20	It's very real. You know how I know?
01:11:22	Because I saw it on TV.
01:11:31	Dave.
01:11:33	Hi.
01:11:34	Dave, you know Mel Nicolai.
01:11:36	Good to see you, Mel.
01:11:38	All due respect,
01:11:40	why I'm reading
01:11:41	in the Chronicle instead
01:11:43	We got screwed.
01:11:44	Dave, come on.
01:11:46	You do get your name in the paper a lot.
01:11:48	I don't ever talk about an open
01:11:51	Dave? Hey. Hi.
01:11:54	Paul Avery. Can I catch a ride
01:11:56	Not a good idea, Paul.
01:11:59	He's gonna make me take a cab
01:12:02	Ladies and gentlemen,
01:12:05	- Fair enough. Fair enough.
01:12:07	Remember, smoking is
01:12:10	Enjoy your flight.
01:12:15	Cheri Jo Bates attended
01:12:18	She studies in the library
01:12:22	She leaves with an unidentified male
01:12:26	Her body's found the next morning
01:12:30	A typewritten confession was sent
01:12:34	on November 29th,
01:12:36	They ran it.
01:12:40	"I'm not sick. I am insane.
01:12:43	"This letter should be published
01:12:45	He wants to be published.
01:12:46	I mean, this could be our boy.
01:12:48	Six months later, the police,
01:12:51	they all received these.
01:12:58	Double postage, just like Zodiac.
01:13:02	These are what Sherwood Morrill
01:13:05	These and the desktop. Don.
01:13:07	This was found a couple of months later
01:13:20	Sherwood got
01:13:25	Who etches in their own handwriting?
01:13:27	To be honest with you,
01:13:28	our letters and your letters,
01:13:31	How did Paul Avery
01:13:33	I gave them to him.
01:13:35	We talked on the phone the other day
01:13:37	And I told him you were gonna be here.
01:13:38	- You told him we were meeting?
01:13:40	I also told him
01:13:42	Okay, wait a minute.
01:13:44	- You don't think this is Zodiac?
01:13:48	We don't have enough
01:13:49	but we're pretty sure it's him.
01:13:51	If you don't think this is Zodiac,
01:13:54	I'm trying to cooperate.
01:13:55	Oh, that's how you cooperate?
01:13:58	Look, I don't know
01:14:00	but Sherwood says it's a match, right?
01:14:01	So, let's just say
01:14:04	He types the confession.
01:14:05	Zodiac reads it in the paper,
01:14:08	Now, that's something he's done before.
01:14:10	Look, now you have everything we have.
01:14:12	But, in my opinion,
01:14:16	FUBAR, gentlemen, FUBAR.
01:14:18	I don't care what he says.
01:14:21	The problem is
01:14:24	Well, there's your press agent.
01:14:30	I come in peace.
01:14:32	I really don't want to talk to you
01:14:34	- Just trying to do my job.
01:14:38	We're already screwed with
01:14:40	and you just freaked out the entire state.
01:14:42	I have got Napa, Vallejo, and DOJ
01:14:46	and Riverside's telling me
01:14:49	Jesus. Hey, Cheri Jo Bates was a gift.
01:14:51	You and Armstrong
01:14:53	This may not be Zodiac.
01:14:55	- What if it is?
01:14:57	be able to make a case
01:14:59	Tell it to Sherwood.
01:15:01	trying to draw him out.
01:15:03	No, we're not in anything together, Paul,
01:15:04	because I'm not interested
01:15:06	Oh, boy. He wrote me.
01:15:09	Hey, Bullitt!
01:15:11	Been a year-and-a-half,
01:15:17	- Go fuck yourself.
01:15:19	You should have called me, Paul.
01:15:27	Thank you.
01:15:41	- Did you see this?
01:15:43	Here comes every lunatic in California.
01:15:47	I'm the Zodiac.
01:15:48	And how did you kill your victims?
01:15:50	With a gun. No, with a hammer.
01:15:52	All I'm authorized to tell you
01:15:54	is that he's still under
01:15:56	- And who authorized you to tell me this?
01:15:59	Only a little rat bastard like Andre
01:16:01	could have done something
01:16:04	Zodiac didn't cut off
01:16:06	- Are you sure?
01:16:08	Travis and I worked here
01:16:11	His foot gets crushed in an accident
01:16:15	- Coincidence?
01:16:16	You're a cop, man. Do the math.
01:16:23	Have you considered
01:16:26	Frequently.
01:16:28	He was drinking Coors,
01:16:30	Starts talking about hunting people.
01:16:33	Says how you can put a light
01:16:36	to use as a sight in the dark.
01:16:37	- He said that?
01:16:40	So I asked him,
01:16:42	And he said, "It would be easy
01:16:44	"'cause there'd be no real motive
01:16:47	Then he said he'd write letters
01:16:49	and call himself Zodiac
01:16:51	Leigh liked messing with people.
01:16:52	- You're positive he said "Zodiac"?
01:16:55	I thought it was a stupid name.
01:16:59	He got up all upset and said,
01:17:02	"I've thought about it a long time
01:17:03	"I've thought about it a long time
01:17:05	Did you feel like he'd been
01:17:08	He was raw about losing his job
01:17:12	He talked about shooting out
01:17:15	and picking off the little darlings.
01:17:17	- He actually used those words?
01:17:21	Afterwards, I told my wife
01:17:24	And I haven't since.
01:17:26	Other thing is, Leigh's into skin diving.
01:17:28	I know he's been up to that lake
01:17:30	Lake Berryessa?
01:17:33	Couple times. We went fishing
01:17:37	Tell him when you put it together.
01:17:39	About a year ago, in the paper,
01:17:43	And it all comes back.
01:17:47	They blew him off.
01:17:48	And you're sure
01:17:52	took place on January 1st, 1968?
01:17:56	It couldn't have been any later.
01:17:58	I started a new job in L.A.
01:18:01	I had to move.
01:18:03	- This is my problem. This guy...
01:18:05	This guy, Leigh,
01:18:08	to a fishing buddy on New Year's Day?
01:18:10	I don't know.
01:18:13	been thinking about it for a while.
01:18:15	So why didn't Cheney
01:18:17	I checked. He did.
01:18:19	First recorded contact
01:18:22	was in Pomona. January 10th, 1970.
01:18:25	He just got lost in the shuffle.
01:18:26	Did Cheney have anything
01:18:28	Did Allen screw his wife or anything?
01:18:29	We're gonna do
01:18:31	But I got to tell you, I like this guy.
01:18:35	So, let's pull
01:18:38	Hi. I talked to Sherwood.
01:18:41	- What are you having?
01:18:46	So, the check stubs are a wash.
01:18:49	The application's got more,
01:18:51	so he can't rule him in.
01:18:54	- Well, that's vague.
01:18:58	Also, our guy is a pervert.
01:19:01	When Mel got the application
01:19:03	they told him that
01:19:05	- Touching?
01:19:09	- So what do you want to do?
01:19:12	- Are you done with the fries?
01:19:15	Did you and Mr. Cheney have a chance
01:19:16	to look at the copies
01:19:19	Yeah.
01:19:22	- Yeah, we know that.
01:19:25	He misspells words like that.
01:19:28	What about the handwriting?
01:19:29	I don't know.
01:19:33	Our man at Questioned Documents
01:19:36	Maybe he did it with his other hand.
01:19:38	The letters are a little too neat
01:19:39	for someone to have written
01:19:42	But not for Leigh, right.
01:19:43	- What do you mean?
01:19:45	He can write with either hand.
01:19:49	In everyday life, Allen uses his left hand.
01:19:52	Job applications,
01:19:54	But he writes the Zodiac letters
01:19:57	producing a different handwriting
01:20:01	We got to see this guy, Chief.
01:20:03	- Where is he?
01:20:04	He works at Union Oil in Pinole.
01:20:07	See them both.
01:20:09	Make sure you call Mulanax.
01:20:11	Oh, right, because that
01:20:15	Cooperation, that's us, at all costs.
01:20:27	You can talk to him in here.
01:20:32	I'll go get him for you.
01:20:35	So how do you guys wanna do this?
01:20:38	Well, Bill talked to the informants.
01:20:41	It's okay by me.
01:20:57	Mr. Allen, I'm Inspector Bill Armstrong.
01:21:00	This is Inspector Dave Toschi
01:21:03	We're investigating the Zodiac murders
01:21:07	Please, sit down.
01:21:18	The informant notified us
01:21:20	11 months prior
01:21:23	If they're true,
01:21:26	Do you recall
01:21:28	- No.
01:21:30	or heard anything about the Zodiac?
01:21:31	When it was first in the paper.
01:21:33	But I didn't follow it
01:21:35	- Why not?
01:21:38	I told all this to the other officer.
01:21:41	- Which other officer?
01:21:45	Do you remember his name?
01:21:47	No, but it was right after
01:21:51	And what did you tell this officer?
01:21:55	I told him that I'd gone to Salt Point
01:21:59	That I was alone
01:22:03	I have their names at home
01:22:05	That would be great, Arthur.
01:22:07	- Leigh.
01:22:10	Leigh. Nobody calls me Arthur.
01:22:14	Also, that day when I came home,
01:22:18	It was around 4:00.
01:22:21	- Neighbor's name?
01:22:25	He died a week or so afterwards.
01:22:27	Heart attack.
01:22:33	The knives I had in my car
01:22:35	that blood came from a chicken
01:22:41	- What?
01:22:44	Maybe Bill saw them
01:22:49	Well, we'll be checking in on that.
01:22:52	Well, let me ask you something else.
01:22:54	Were you ever in Southern California
01:22:59	- Is this about the Riverside killing?
01:23:03	Well, I guess I was there
01:23:05	I used to go down there a lot.
01:23:13	Informant says that
01:23:15	No, that's untrue.
01:23:17	You can't write with both hands?
01:23:21	My teachers tried to make me
01:23:24	I'm left-handed.
01:23:26	He also said that you made statements
01:23:31	That is...
01:23:32	That is horrible. That is...
01:23:36	So, you weren't angry
01:23:39	for touching your students?
01:23:51	I'm not the Zodiac.
01:23:53	And if I was, I certainly wouldn't tell you.
01:23:58	That's a nice watch.
01:24:02	Thank you.
01:24:03	May I see it?
01:24:07	May I see it?
01:24:20	Where'd you get it?
01:24:21	It was a Christmas gift
01:24:24	That's very sweet.
01:24:26	So, tell me something, Arthur.
01:24:29	You don't remember anyone
01:24:30	you might have had a conversation with
01:24:35	Maybe Ted Kidder or Phil Tucker
01:24:42	But I couldn't be positive.
01:24:44	I used to work there when...
01:24:50	The Most Dangerous Game.
01:24:53	What?
01:24:54	The Most Dangerous Game.
01:24:57	It was my favorite book in high school.
01:24:59	It's about this man who waits for people
01:25:03	Because he was
01:25:04	he hunted the people for the challenge.
01:25:06	And man is the most
01:25:10	That's the whole point of the story.
01:25:13	Great book.
01:25:16	Or, at least, that's what I told Phil.
01:25:24	May I go?
01:25:29	Sure.
01:25:35	- Thanks for your time.
01:25:39	I look forward to the day
01:25:42	when police officers
01:25:46	Thanks.
01:25:48	We'll be in touch.
01:26:02	So does anyone think this suspect
01:26:06	These are copies of some
01:26:10	We'd like you to take a look at them.
01:26:13	You think my brother's the Zodiac.
01:26:15	Well, we're looking at him.
01:26:17	Are you going to arrest him?
01:26:18	Mrs. Allen, we don't arrest people
01:26:22	Well, Leigh's always been troubled.
01:26:24	Is it true about the children?
01:26:27	Unfortunately.
01:26:28	We don't see him much anymore
01:26:31	What are your feelings
01:26:33	Don Cheney? My old roommate?
01:26:36	- Was he the one who contacted you?
01:26:39	Well, Don's a very reliable guy.
01:26:40	If he were to tell you something,
01:26:43	- This one.
01:26:45	Here, where he spells
01:26:47	We got a Christmas card from Leigh
01:26:49	He spelled it the exact same way.
01:26:52	- Would you still have that?
01:26:55	Thank you. That'd be great.
01:26:58	Is there anything else
01:27:00	The brother said
01:27:02	next time he went out of town.
01:27:03	- That gets you around a warrant.
01:27:06	If we do find something,
01:27:09	and we could search the place properly.
01:27:11	Now I got a chance to talk to the cop
01:27:12	who interviewed Leigh Allen
01:27:15	Doesn't remember how he got onto him,
01:27:17	but didn't think he looked like a killer
01:27:20	- But you do?
01:27:23	Take it slow, Dave.
01:27:26	A match'll get us farther
01:27:28	- Avery's on two.
01:27:32	You want me to communicate that
01:27:43	This suspect is not your Zodiac.
01:27:48	This sample matches the canceled
01:27:50	Perfectly.
01:27:52	So we've just retested the left hand.
01:27:55	In 38 years, I've never seen anyone
01:27:58	Both hands would have commonalities.
01:28:01	I'm sorry.
01:28:03	Just not gonna work.
01:28:06	- Homicide, Toschi.
01:28:09	Hey. Mulanax. Yeah.
01:28:11	We struck out with the judge.
01:28:13	He won't sign off on a warrant
01:28:14	- Why not?
01:28:17	Now, unless we bring him a handwriting
01:28:19	How are we gonna get evidence
01:28:22	I don't know.
01:28:24	- I truly am sorry.
01:28:28	What do you wanna do?
01:28:29	Don't know what I can do
01:28:31	We need Allen's right hand.
01:28:34	Are there other guys
01:28:36	Only, what?
01:28:38	Twenty-three hundred?
01:28:40	Okay, then.
01:28:45	Okay, then.
01:29:14	Paul, you wrote the Justice Department
01:29:17	asking to be put in charge
01:29:22	I merely suggested...
01:29:24	On our letterhead?
01:29:25	...that those with intimate knowledge
01:29:27	create an information clearinghouse
01:29:29	to promote an exchange
01:29:32	- And that you run it.
01:29:36	The marked man.
01:29:38	Paul, if you want to work here,
01:29:40	One, stop boozing.
01:29:42	Two, stop doing
01:29:45	And three, cut this nonsense out.
01:29:49	Sweetest of Templetons, if at any time
01:29:52	you feel my excellent work is no longer
01:29:57	I'll more than happily...
01:29:59	More than happily
01:30:02	Paul, I mean it!
01:30:14	- Paul?
01:30:16	- What was that?
01:30:21	- Wanna grab a drink?
01:30:23	Late breakfast?
01:30:26	- Early lunch, or...
01:30:30	Are you okay?
01:30:32	No.
01:30:37	Thank you for asking.
01:30:41	Shorty! Let's go out for one.
01:30:43	Paul, where are you going?
01:30:47	So, you moved off my brother-in-law?
01:30:50	We couldn't get a warrant.
01:30:53	Last year we arranged for Leigh
01:30:57	He only went twice.
01:30:59	We saw him recently for
01:31:02	My mother-in-law brought him by
01:31:05	After he left,
01:31:08	He couldn't talk about a former patient,
01:31:12	if he thought Leigh
01:31:14	- Because of patient confidentiality...
01:31:19	Why hadn't you seen him
01:31:21	He's going to school in Santa Rosa.
01:31:23	- Santa Rosa? Where is he living?
01:31:27	- In Santa Rosa?
01:31:29	We wouldn't have to go
01:31:31	It's been 11 months
01:31:33	and now you wanna search his trailer?
01:31:35	If we find something, great.
01:31:36	If not, we get his prints and
01:31:40	I thought Sherwood shut you down.
01:31:43	What if I can get a second opinion?
01:31:46	I don't wanna step on Sherwood's toes.
01:31:49	Terry, all I need to know
01:31:51	Could he possibly have written
01:31:57	Between you and me?
01:31:59	Because there are differing
01:32:03	Get the samples of his other hand.
01:32:08	That's the current thinking,
01:32:10	Meanwhile, I spoke to a psychologist
01:32:14	that someone who undergoes
01:32:17	would manifest it physically,
01:32:20	Which is why Sherwood couldn't
01:32:24	We got Terry Pascoe,
01:32:26	coupled with Cheney...
01:32:27	It could be enough for a warrant.
01:32:29	Get Cheney on the record.
01:32:30	"And shoot the kiddies
01:32:33	"And that he would call himself Zodiac. "
01:32:37	Yes.
01:32:38	And you're willing to swear
01:32:42	Without any hesitation.
01:32:43	Thank you very much, Mr. Cheney.
01:32:46	Thank you.
01:32:49	Well, looks like you got your man.
01:33:12	Mr. Allen?
01:33:14	This is the
01:33:16	We have a warrant
01:33:30	Hello?
01:33:39	I'll check with the neighbors.
01:33:43	Close the door.
01:33:44	Close the door,
01:33:59	Neighbor said he tore out of here
01:34:02	- You think somebody tipped him?
01:34:12	I'll check the back.
01:34:27	Jesus.
01:34:28	- What?
01:34:32	Piece of work, this guy.
01:34:40	Not one, but two blue windbreakers.
01:34:43	- Like the Stine scene?
01:34:47	And a pair of black gloves.
01:34:52	Men's seven,
01:34:55	Well, he's got the same size shoes
01:34:58	Probably just a coincidence.
01:35:00	Dave, I got a gun.
01:35:05	They're both. 22s.
01:35:09	Well, that's interesting.
01:35:10	Because he happens to have
01:35:14	For little darlings bouncing off buses.
01:35:17	Someone's here.
01:35:26	Hello, Arthur. Remember us?
01:35:51	No.
01:35:52	On the handwriting?
01:35:53	Ballistics, no match.
01:35:57	On both hands, right?
01:35:59	Because we got handwriting
01:36:01	And neither hand matches.
01:36:02	Forget Sherwood.
01:36:04	Fellas, he's not your guy.
01:36:12	Damn it.
01:36:21	Hey.
01:36:23	What do you want? Time off?
01:36:28	A hug?
01:36:30	Do you know what
01:36:32	I can't tell if I wanted it
01:36:34	because I actually thought it was him,
01:36:37	It's because you thought it was him.
01:36:39	And I did, too.
01:36:43	You know what? Take some time off.
01:36:45	Spend some time with your wife
01:36:48	Go to Candlestick. See a movie.
01:36:52	"To the city of San Francisco,
01:36:58	"until you pay me $100,000.
01:37:01	"If you agree, say so tomorrow morning
01:37:04	"in the personal column
01:37:08	"and I will set up meeting.
01:37:10	"If I do not hear from you,
01:37:11	"it will be my next pleasure
01:37:18	"... Scorpio. "
01:37:22	Who's out of their minds?
01:37:23	I've got to get out of here.
01:37:25	Where the hell does he expect me
01:37:29	You're not thinking of paying him,
01:37:31	The city of San Francisco does not
01:37:58	The killer gets shot in the chest.
01:38:01	That's how it ends.
01:38:04	Do I know you?
01:38:05	I'm Robert Graysmith.
01:38:08	Dave Toschi. Nice to meet you.
01:38:10	Dave! That Harry Callahan
01:38:13	Yeah. No need for due process, right?
01:38:20	- What do you do at the Chronicle?
01:38:22	That's nice.
01:38:23	You're gonna catch him.
01:38:27	Pal, they're already
01:39:01	Hi. We haven't met.
01:39:03	I'm Robert Graysmith.
01:39:05	I'm Duffy Jennings.
01:39:07	- Nice to meet you.
01:39:11	You got a great desk.
01:39:12	Guy who used to work here
01:39:14	Oh, yeah. Oh, I'm sure he was.
01:39:15	I mean, it's a honor
01:39:18	and go work for the Sacramento Bee.
01:39:21	Dare to dream, right, Robert?
01:39:27	- Nice to meet you.
01:39:30	I'm just right down there
01:39:32	- if you need anything, Duffy.
01:39:38	- You sure you don't want the car, Bill?
01:39:41	You could just drop me off at my place
01:39:44	You should keep the car.
01:39:47	Yeah?
01:39:48	I'm not coming in tomorrow.
01:39:52	Why? What's up?
01:39:55	I'm done.
01:39:58	I put in for a transfer.
01:40:05	Where?
01:40:07	Looking at Fraud.
01:40:11	I can't be on call anymore.
01:40:16	I wanna see these kids grow up.
01:40:19	Hey, good for you, Bill.
01:40:24	- You'll be okay.
01:40:28	Hey,
01:40:30	I'm not leaving you
01:40:35	No.
01:40:39	Okay.
01:40:41	Hey, you know what?
01:40:43	Maybe you'll have a chance
01:40:48	Yeah.
01:41:21	I'm not Paul Avery.
01:41:26	The boys need to be tucked in, please,
01:41:29	- I'll flip you for it.
01:41:35	Nobody has more Zodiac crap
01:42:22	- Are you kidding me?
01:42:26	- Permission to come aboard.
01:42:28	Anyway, you got shoes on.
01:42:31	- That's the one.
01:42:35	- See that? Mesmerizing.
01:42:38	My own kids
01:42:42	- How are you?
01:42:45	I mean, admittedly,
01:42:47	the Bee ain't exactly
01:42:49	Do you want a drink?
01:42:52	Don't worry about that.
01:42:54	It's no bother at all.
01:42:58	Cheers.
01:43:00	To your health and mine.
01:43:04	Mostly mine.
01:43:11	So,
01:43:14	what's new?
01:43:18	- I've been thinking.
01:43:20	Somebody should write a book.
01:43:21	Somebody should write a fucking book,
01:43:24	- About what?
01:43:28	It's not new.
01:43:30	I've been thinking that
01:43:34	maybe you could jog something loose.
01:43:36	And then I was thinking that
01:43:39	Yeah. That's true.
01:43:40	You know all the players,
01:43:43	Lost them.
01:43:44	You lost them?
01:43:46	Or I tossed them. I don't know.
01:43:49	You know that we work
01:43:51	As in, today.
01:43:53	What do you think
01:43:57	Do you know that more people die
01:43:59	every three months
01:44:01	He offed a few citizens,
01:44:02	he wrote a few letters,
01:44:04	He wrote a few letters,
01:44:11	Not that I haven't been sitting here idly
01:44:14	waiting for you to drop by
01:44:21	It was four years ago. Let it fucking go.
01:44:24	You're wrong. It was important.
01:44:28	Then, what did you ever do about it?
01:44:31	If it was so fucking important,
01:44:34	You hovered over my desk,
01:44:36	Am I being unkind?
01:44:39	Oh, that's right, I forgot.
01:44:45	I'm sorry I bothered you.
01:45:09	- Hey, hi.
01:45:12	- Where you been?
01:45:46	Thank you!
01:46:03	- Inspector Toschi?
01:46:10	- Hi.
01:46:13	We met at the movies once.
01:46:15	It must have been magical.
01:46:17	I'm Robert Graysmith.
01:46:19	I was wondering if I could buy you lunch.
01:46:23	Sure, why not?
01:46:25	So, you're a friend of Paul Avery's?
01:46:28	He's actually the reason I'm here.
01:46:32	I wanted to ask you about Zodiac.
01:46:34	Well, I appreciate the interest,
01:46:38	Oh, well, what's going on with it,
01:46:40	We're actively pursuing all leads.
01:46:42	And you're the only one on it, right?
01:46:46	Mr. Graysmith,
01:46:49	Zodiac hasn't written in three years.
01:46:51	You know how many murders
01:46:53	- No.
01:46:55	That's a lot of dead people
01:46:58	So, nobody cares.
01:47:00	Excuse me? I care.
01:47:05	Okay. Can I show you something?
01:47:11	I've been doing research
01:47:14	Everything an amateur
01:47:16	can be found in these books.
01:47:19	Now, I started thinking
01:47:22	then maybe you can track the man.
01:47:25	So, I remember you thought
01:47:28	so I went to every base library
01:47:32	who's ever checked out these books
01:47:40	- Missing.
01:47:44	So, almost every book on ciphers
01:47:47	And the Oakland Army Terminal Library.
01:47:53	Somebody didn't want a record
01:47:57	Who are you again?
01:48:01	I just wanna help.
01:48:06	I can't allow you to help.
01:48:08	I can't discuss the case with you.
01:48:10	I can't give you information,
01:48:13	to go see Ken Narlow in Napa.
01:48:16	N- A-R-L-O-W.
01:48:27	I'm sorry, Mr. Graysmith,
01:48:32	Well, I'm not a writer, I'm a cartoonist.
01:48:35	- And Dave Toschi sent you?
01:48:38	- Why?
01:48:40	Maybe he thought
01:48:43	- What are you, some kind of boy scout?
01:48:48	Well, if you wanna do this,
01:48:53	Better start with Vallejo, Jack Mulanax.
01:48:56	I understand what you're trying to do.
01:48:58	But this is an open police investigation.
01:49:01	I'm a friend of Dave Toschi's.
01:49:03	And he said
01:49:06	I mean, the case is dead.
01:49:10	He's yesterday's news, right?
01:49:13	That's what they say.
01:49:16	So, what's the harm?
01:49:18	No pens, no paper.
01:49:20	Anything that you see that's relevant,
01:49:23	Okay.
01:49:26	Okay, here we go.
01:49:27	- Which one?
01:49:30	And there's more in the next room.
01:49:32	243-146.
01:49:34	You don't smoke, do you?
01:49:36	Once. In high school.
01:49:41	What's this?
01:49:44	Thank you.
01:50:13	Man, you really creeped us out.
01:50:21	"Nine millimeter.
01:50:24	"Said nothing and began firing. "
01:50:36	"Most Dangerous Game.
01:50:37	"Do not eliminate this suspect
01:50:40	"Not because of handwriting.
01:50:43	"Darlene's sister, Linda.
01:50:45	"It was all just deep breathing. George.
01:50:48	"It was a strange man. George.
01:50:52	Thank you so much.
01:50:55	Oh, briefcase. Oh, thanks.
01:51:00	- Hey, Jack.
01:51:03	- Who's that?
01:51:05	Some cartoonist.
01:51:10	Well, good for him.
01:51:41	- Thank you for meeting me, Inspector.
01:51:44	We're just two guys
01:51:45	on the same bench at the same time.
01:51:47	I've got five minutes.
01:51:49	Okay. As far as you know,
01:51:52	with Mike Mageau
01:51:54	- and show him suspect photos?
01:51:56	Well, he's the only surviving victim
01:51:59	No, I mean, why are you asking me?
01:52:00	Mageau and Darlene,
01:52:02	Paul Stine is mine.
01:52:05	Darlene Ferrin was being followed.
01:52:07	Now, I know Mulanax says
01:52:09	a George Waters?
01:52:11	But he also said
01:52:12	who would come to
01:52:14	- She was popular.
01:52:16	Yeah. So...
01:52:18	She and her husband,
01:52:20	and one night they throw
01:52:21	And what's a painting party?
01:52:23	It's a party where people come
01:52:25	Sounds like a terrible party.
01:52:26	Well, supposedly,
01:52:30	And Darlene is terrified of him.
01:52:32	So you think that Darlene knew Zodiac?
01:52:34	And if Zodiac knew Darlene,
01:52:38	Maybe. But Mageau's gone.
01:52:40	So if you wanna connect
01:52:42	you're gonna have to find another way.
01:52:43	I have another way.
01:52:45	Phone calls the night
01:52:46	- Yeah, Zodiac called the police.
01:52:50	There were two to Darlene's house,
01:52:52	and one to Darlene's father-in-law.
01:52:54	They started around 1:30 a. m.,
01:52:56	and this was before anyone in the family
01:53:00	- This was in the Vallejo files?
01:53:02	God damn it.
01:53:03	It's got to be more
01:53:05	I mean, somebody doesn't just randomly
01:53:08	90 minutes after they were shot.
01:53:10	So, either Zodiac shoots
01:53:13	then he recognizes Darlene...
01:53:14	Or Darlene was shot on purpose.
01:53:16	Either way,
01:53:21	That's good, Robert.
01:53:24	So, I can't find Mageau,
01:53:27	And maybe she can tell me
01:53:29	Try that. I've got to go. She's very cute.
01:53:36	You know,
01:53:37	it's interesting that you should mention
01:53:41	He did that in San Francisco once.
01:53:42	What? Who did he call?
01:53:44	I can't tell you.
01:53:48	But maybe Melvin Belli could.
01:53:52	Melvin Belli.
01:53:55	How do I get to Melvin Belli?
01:53:57	- He should be along soon.
01:54:00	I've really...
01:54:03	He's usually not this late.
01:54:05	Oh, cookies. Thank you.
01:54:08	- You are here on business?
01:54:12	I remember that. I spoke to him.
01:54:15	- You mean to Mr. Belli about the case?
01:54:20	He said he had to kill
01:54:23	He said it... Wait.
01:54:27	Yes. You want something to drink?
01:54:30	- When was this?
01:54:36	Mr. Belli was away for Christmas.
01:54:39	Gone for a week.
01:54:40	The Zodiac called,
01:54:43	I said, "He is not here. "
01:54:44	He said, "I have to kill.
01:54:47	And then he hangs up.
01:54:49	Then the letter arrived.
01:54:51	So, the call came
01:54:55	Mr. Belli was gone for a week?
01:54:57	He came back on Christmas.
01:55:01	So, he left on the 18th.
01:55:04	Is that helpful?
01:55:06	She said it was his birthday.
01:55:07	Well, you'd have to confirm that,
01:55:11	How?
01:55:13	Well, I never spoke to her,
01:55:16	- How do I get a hold of him?
01:55:19	As far as I'm concerned,
01:55:21	How do I confirm it?
01:55:23	Well, if my partner
01:55:25	then they would've had
01:55:27	That's standard procedure.
01:55:29	- Okay.
01:55:31	- Thank you.
01:55:33	I just need to confirm a date.
01:55:36	- Mr. Graysmith...
01:55:37	between the 18th and the 20th
01:55:40	Okay, I'll play.
01:55:43	Let's say it really was Zodiac.
01:55:44	Why would he volunteer
01:55:47	Plus, nobody died on December 18th,
01:55:50	just like nobody died over the weekend
01:55:52	or when he was gonna
01:55:55	He's a liar, Mr. Graysmith.
01:55:56	What if he made a mistake?
01:55:58	What if he wasn't lying?
01:56:00	He didn't expect to pick it up,
01:56:03	What if? What if? What if?
01:56:04	Look, off the record,
01:56:08	We took this very seriously.
01:56:10	None of the suspects had the
01:56:14	Bill Armstrong.
01:56:21	Can I give you a piece of advice?
01:56:23	You're looking in the wrong place.
01:56:25	Handwriting, fingerprints,
01:56:28	Stick to the evidence.
01:56:31	Hi.
01:56:40	- Hey. How was your day?
01:56:49	Who's Sherwood Morrill?
01:56:50	He's a handwriting expert
01:56:53	He called.
01:56:54	He said he can meet you
01:56:56	Oh, great.
01:56:58	- So you're taking off work?
01:57:02	Sacramento's two hours away.
01:57:06	- Really?
01:57:08	What's this?
01:57:10	Oh, that's that article.
01:57:12	"Robert Graysmith has quietly been
01:57:16	Yeah.
01:57:17	It talks all about you
01:57:20	Well, that's what the article's about.
01:57:21	I'm not so sure that's something
01:57:24	Why? Are you embarrassed?
01:57:25	Robert, what's the one thing
01:57:29	He reads the Chronicle.
01:57:30	Yeah, but he's never
01:57:37	- Hello.
01:57:40	The Robert Graysmith
01:57:43	- Yeah?
01:57:49	Who is this?
01:57:51	The Zodiac Killer
01:57:53	He recorded his murders on film.
01:57:56	I tried to tell the police,
01:57:59	There's a man you need to find.
01:58:02	- Pen, pen.
01:58:05	He's a friend of the Zodiac's.
01:58:07	Mr. Vaughn does not know
01:58:09	and he is storing
01:58:12	In these canisters is the evidence.
01:58:14	Okay, yeah, friend? Who is this friend?
01:58:17	You have quite enough to get started.
01:58:19	Oh, please.
01:58:21	The Zodiac's name is Rick Marshall.
01:58:28	Your toast is burning.
01:58:31	We choose at some point in our lives
01:58:37	Once we lock that into our brains,
01:58:39	our handwriting may change
01:58:41	but the moves themselves
01:58:44	- Understand?
01:58:47	Except Zodiac's doesn't.
01:58:51	Specifically with his "K."
01:58:54	In his first letters,
01:58:57	Later letters, he did them with three.
01:58:58	- Why?
01:59:01	Excuse me, I've got to spray this.
01:59:03	How many suspects
01:59:06	All of them.
01:59:08	Also the print in the cab.
01:59:11	Is there any way that someone
01:59:15	No.
01:59:16	Whoever the Zodiac is,
01:59:21	About a month ago, a man showed up
01:59:24	His name was Wallace Penny.
01:59:27	He said he knew who the Zodiac was.
01:59:29	Gave me a name.
01:59:32	Rick. Rick somebody.
01:59:34	- Rick Marshall?
01:59:36	I think that the man
01:59:39	After he left, then I checked my files.
01:59:42	I never cleared a Rick Marshall.
01:59:51	Hello?
01:59:57	Hello? Who is this?
02:00:09	It's the wrong number.
02:00:17	Does the name Rick Marshall
02:00:21	What are you after?
02:00:23	What do you got?
02:00:24	Hypothetically, you just named
02:00:30	This is off the record.
02:00:31	Couple years back,
02:00:34	I handed him a photo.
02:00:36	He looks at it. He's about to give it back
02:00:38	"My goodness,
02:00:41	And he wipes them off.
02:00:43	Why didn't you test him for handwriting?
02:00:45	Because when they finally
02:00:48	they cleared him
02:00:50	- So, then, it's not him.
02:00:52	No. What do you mean?
02:00:54	Zodiac left gloves behind at the scene.
02:00:57	If he had the foresight
02:00:59	how the hell's he gonna
02:01:01	But it was in the victim's blood.
02:01:03	Could have been one of the bystanders,
02:01:05	or a cop just reaches out,
02:01:07	Yeah, but that print
02:01:10	Which is why we also used handwriting.
02:01:11	But not for Rick Marshall.
02:01:12	SFPD saw a handwritten sign
02:01:16	Decided it looked nothing
02:01:19	How do they know
02:01:22	My thoughts exactly.
02:01:24	Rick Marshall was a Navy man.
02:01:28	He was also a projectionist
02:01:30	Well, then, how do I get copies
02:01:33	Three ways.
02:01:37	Two, get him to volunteer,
02:01:39	Yeah, and three?
02:01:41	Get creative.
02:01:42	I don't know what to tell you.
02:01:45	Beyond that, you're on your own.
02:01:47	Okay, what about
02:01:49	the one who called me?
02:01:51	You mean Wallace Penny?
02:01:53	Yeah. Did he leave a number?
02:02:05	- Hello?
02:02:08	How did you find me?
02:02:09	I need a sample
02:02:11	I told you. Vaughn is who...
02:02:13	Mr. Penny,
02:02:16	I need a sample of his handwriting
02:02:19	Can you help me or not?
02:02:22	Rick used to draw movie posters
02:02:27	- I'll send one down.
02:02:38	- I'll need to see more samples.
02:02:41	It's as close as I've ever seen.
02:02:44	We're talking about
02:02:46	I can get more. I'll just find Vaughn
02:02:49	I mean, Linda is Darlene's sister.
02:02:51	I've been to the DMV,
02:02:54	but still, nobody knows
02:02:57	Mr. Graysmith, most of the writing
02:03:02	In a way, though, it's the part that
02:03:05	- What do you mean?
02:03:08	the one letter that absolutely,
02:03:11	is the letter "K."
02:03:14	You wouldn't happen to have any
02:03:18	Unit Five.
02:03:34	- Dispatch.
02:03:36	I'll connect you.
02:03:39	- Dave?
02:03:40	Jennings here from the Chronicle.
02:03:43	It came in this morning
02:03:45	See what?
02:03:46	The new Zodiac letter.
02:03:49	Okay, okay.
02:03:52	Shit. All right, come on.
02:03:55	Hall of Justice!
02:03:57	Now! Come on, come on,
02:04:06	Dave!
02:04:08	Do you have it with you?
02:04:13	"This is the Zodiac speaking.
02:04:16	"Tell Herb Caen I am here,
02:04:19	"That city pig Toschi is good,
02:04:22	"He will get tired, then leave me alone.
02:04:25	"I'm waiting for a good movie about me.
02:04:28	"I'm now in control of all things. "
02:04:31	These guys are from Internal Affairs.
02:04:35	We need to talk.
02:04:37	Good evening. Our top story tonight,
02:04:39	the San Francisco Police Department
02:04:41	that the man
02:04:44	and terrorized the Bay Area
02:04:48	In a letter claiming,
02:04:51	the Zodiac makes no overt threats
02:04:54	and muses that his life and times
02:04:58	These carrots are perfect.
02:04:59	The terse 66 word message
02:05:01	Just go.
02:05:02	...to mention San Francisco Chronicle
02:05:05	and the Department's own
02:05:08	- May I be excused?
02:05:10	Fine, but you have to come back
02:05:11	and finish at least half
02:05:13	More team coverage
02:05:15	begins as Alan Freeman has more.
02:05:17	Thank you, Eric.
02:05:19	San Francisco Chronicle columnist
02:05:21	that he thinks not only
02:05:24	but it was written by the very man
02:05:26	trusted to hunt down this killer,
02:05:30	Maupin, a very well-respected author,
02:05:34	that he believes Toschi wrote the letter
02:05:38	Maupin used David
02:05:41	David got a kick out of it
02:05:43	and so he wrote
02:05:46	asking for the character
02:05:48	It was like
02:05:51	But David did not write that letter.
02:05:53	No, I'm sure that he didn't.
02:05:56	Blow over?
02:05:58	They kicked him out of Homicide.
02:06:00	They made him give his handwriting
02:06:03	- May I talk to him?
02:06:07	Okay, can you just ask him
02:06:08	if he ever investigated
02:06:10	Is that all you can think about?
02:06:12	Mr. Graysmith,
02:06:21	This girl, she wants music lessons?
02:06:23	Dave! Dave!
02:06:27	I'll catch up to you.
02:06:29	You stop calling my house.
02:06:32	I just need your help to find Linda.
02:06:33	- Jesus.
02:06:37	Look, we've been
02:06:40	- Who's we?
02:06:42	Sherwood?
02:06:43	Sherwood who was fired
02:06:46	Sherwood who drinks
02:06:47	- He retired.
02:06:50	- What, are you saying he's wrong?
02:06:55	- We ran them on Rick Marshall.
02:06:56	No, I know you don't think it's him.
02:06:58	I mean, no, I am not having
02:06:59	But I think that Marshall knew Darlene,
02:07:02	so I'm gonna talk to Bob Vaughn.
02:07:03	So I'm gonna talk to Bob Vaughn.
02:07:03	- Robert. Robert, stop it!
02:07:05	Okay, the Rick Marshalls
02:07:07	They're blind alleys.
02:07:08	But he said he wasn't gonna announce
02:07:11	He was just gonna do them.
02:07:12	Do you know what the chances
02:07:15	Too much time has gone by, okay?
02:07:19	People get old, Robert. They forget.
02:07:22	Now, I have been a cop for 25 years.
02:07:27	- What do you do for a living?
02:07:29	- You're a cartoonist.
02:07:31	I am saying Zodiac was my job.
02:07:37	- He's still out there, Dave.
02:07:40	I am through with you.
02:07:48	What about September 26, 1970?
02:07:51	- Okay, which one was that?
02:07:57	One day before the vernal equinox.
02:07:59	- Dad?
02:08:01	Got another one. June 19th, 1971.
02:08:04	That's got to be
02:08:10	Oh, guys.
02:08:11	Don't tell Mom about
02:08:15	How come you and Mom
02:08:22	Hello.
02:08:23	Mr. Graysmith,
02:08:25	Oh, Captain Narlow.
02:08:29	Yeah. How can I help?
02:08:31	I called you because we've been
02:08:34	with the Zodiac's timeline.
02:08:36	More often than not, each cycle
02:08:40	or with one of the letters,
02:08:43	- Who's working with you on this?
02:08:46	Dad?
02:08:48	- Ken, can you hold on one second?
02:08:51	- What is it?
02:08:57	In the decade since the Zodiac's
02:09:00	every federal agency
02:09:04	But today,
02:09:07	a cartoonist has succeeded.
02:09:09	How did you do it?
02:09:11	Oh, just a lot of books from the library,
02:09:19	Yeah. The fucking library.
02:09:21	I believe that you can accomplish
02:09:27	That's a "J"? Okay. Honor Camp?
02:09:31	Thank you so much.
02:09:35	Hey, we found Linda.
02:09:37	Why'd you do it?
02:09:38	Because she'll be able to identify Rick...
02:09:40	- What are you talking about?
02:09:43	You put yourself out there
02:09:45	Oh, hon, you're being paranoid.
02:09:47	Then who's been calling our house
02:09:49	at least once a week?
02:09:50	Nobody.
02:09:53	What's it gonna take
02:09:55	I can't talk about this now.
02:09:58	Well, that's too bad,
02:10:01	And when is it gonna be finished?
02:10:04	When you catch him?
02:10:06	- Be serious.
02:10:10	I need to know who he is.
02:10:13	I need to stand there,
02:10:17	I need to look him in the eye
02:10:22	Is that more important
02:10:25	Of course not.
02:10:28	Why? Why do you need to do this?
02:10:32	Why?
02:10:35	Because nobody else will.
02:10:38	That's not good enough.
02:10:40	Are you done? Can I go?
02:10:57	- Mr. Vaughn?
02:10:59	- Yes.
02:11:00	You needed to speak to me?
02:11:01	Yes. There's a coffee shop
02:11:04	- Why don't we just go to my home?
02:11:07	It's no trouble at all.
02:11:09	- Where are you parked?
02:11:12	- You can follow me.
02:11:34	Watch your step.
02:11:36	Come in.
02:11:40	- Very nice house.
02:11:43	It's very rustic.
02:11:45	- Can I take your jacket?
02:11:48	Okay. This way, please.
02:11:53	- Have a seat.
02:11:55	- How about some tea?
02:11:58	- You sure?
02:12:00	I wanted to ask you about a film
02:12:04	while you were the organist there.
02:12:06	The Most Dangerous Game?
02:12:08	Oh, it's a classic. RKO. 1932.
02:12:12	Fay Wray, Joel McCrea, Leslie Banks.
02:12:16	In '68, '69?
02:12:20	I'd have to check my records. Why?
02:12:22	Do you remember the Zodiac?
02:12:26	This is about Rick Marshall, isn't it?
02:12:29	- He was a projectionist there, right?
02:12:32	But I have no occasion
02:12:36	Okay. Well, there is a connection
02:12:39	between one of the Zodiac attacks
02:12:42	You mean the symbol?
02:12:45	Hold on.
02:12:46	The Zodiac symbol on film.
02:12:54	It's trimmed off each reel
02:12:57	but it always arrives with it.
02:13:00	Right there.
02:13:02	The first time I saw it in the papers,
02:13:06	We got a tip
02:13:08	that Rick left a film canister here
02:13:12	A tip about a mysterious film canister?
02:13:16	Is it true?
02:13:19	Yes.
02:13:21	- Did you open it?
02:13:24	- May I see it?
02:13:30	This tip is how you got it in your head
02:13:34	That and the poster.
02:13:36	The poster?
02:13:39	The poster that Rick drew.
02:13:41	The handwriting is the closest
02:13:45	- Rick didn't draw any posters.
02:13:48	Mr. Graysmith, I do the posters myself.
02:13:53	That's my handwriting.
02:14:03	I won't take any more of your time.
02:14:06	Why don't I just go and find out
02:14:11	Oh, that's all right.
02:14:13	It's not a problem.
02:14:18	Not many people
02:14:24	I do.
02:14:27	You coming, Mr. Graysmith?
02:14:40	The original studio one-sheets,
02:14:46	The cheapo knock-offs
02:14:49	I end up tossing into the back alley.
02:15:06	'69.
02:15:13	You live alone?
02:15:15	Most Dangerous Game ran in May '69.
02:15:21	So, that would be about
02:15:24	nine weeks before
02:15:30	Yeah.
02:15:36	Do you think he saw the film
02:15:46	Are you sure
02:15:51	Would you like
02:15:54	No.
02:15:58	Thank you. Thanks for everything.
02:16:02	You're welcome.
02:16:24	It's locked.
02:16:37	Thank you.
02:16:41	Good night, Mr. Graysmith!
02:17:03	Two killers. Got to be two killers.
02:17:15	Guys?
02:17:49	You've got five minutes.
02:17:59	Linda?
02:18:02	Hi, I'm Robert.
02:18:07	Did you get my note?
02:18:10	- What's this about?
02:18:13	Figures.
02:18:16	- You got the look.
02:18:19	I didn't mean anything.
02:18:22	Tell me about this painting party.
02:18:25	I told the cops about that so long ago.
02:18:32	Darlene always had
02:18:34	even though she was married.
02:18:36	And this one guy was weird, though.
02:18:38	He used to bring her presents
02:18:42	I don't know why
02:18:45	She once told me he'd killed somebody.
02:18:48	Really?
02:18:49	Yeah, I think maybe
02:18:52	- Navy?
02:18:54	Was he into movies?
02:18:56	I can tell you that
02:18:59	The party Darlene threw,
02:19:00	people were supposed to
02:19:03	But this guy showed up in a suit,
02:19:06	and just sat in a chair
02:19:09	Didn't talk to anyone.
02:19:10	And Darlene told me
02:19:12	She was scared of him.
02:19:16	And a couple of weeks later,
02:19:19	I'm sorry. Do you remember his name?
02:19:22	I mean, it was short,
02:19:26	- Rick?
02:19:29	- Are you sure?
02:19:32	How can you be sure?
02:19:34	I am thinking hard.
02:19:37	It was Rick.
02:19:39	No, it wasn't.
02:19:40	- It was Rick. It was Rick Marshall.
02:19:43	Just say it!
02:19:44	It wasn't Rick.
02:19:54	It was Leigh.
02:19:59	- Leigh?
02:20:02	Sounds right.
02:20:09	Officer! I need you to let me in.
02:20:12	- Is this an emergency?
02:20:14	No, you need to come back
02:20:15	- One file, just for one second.
02:20:18	Sergeant! Sergeant Mulanax!
02:20:20	Sergeant, I just need to see one file!
02:20:22	Just give me five minutes.
02:20:26	Please!
02:20:41	I shouldn't be talking to you.
02:20:43	- You got five minutes.
02:20:47	Here. Here.
02:20:48	Linda states that some of
02:20:52	who used to bring Darlene
02:20:55	- So what?
02:20:57	Linda said Leigh. This is Leigh.
02:20:59	No. That's just one name in a file
02:21:02	It's nothing.
02:21:04	- Dave Toschi...
02:21:07	Our investigation
02:21:12	I'm sorry.
02:21:23	Hello.
02:21:39	Who's there?
02:21:44	- You didn't return my calls.
02:21:48	Yeah. I can see that.
02:21:52	How's the book coming?
02:21:57	I tried to send you these.
02:22:00	I called the Chron.
02:22:02	Well, I'm not a cartoonist anymore, so...
02:22:06	I heard.
02:22:12	When's the last time
02:22:17	Nothing makes sense anymore.
02:22:22	- Did it ever?
02:22:26	Robert, it was just the date
02:22:29	You don't mean that.
02:22:33	A little.
02:22:37	The kids miss you.
02:22:39	- I can't have them see me like this.
02:22:42	So, do whatever you have to,
02:22:46	but finish this.
02:23:15	Dave!
02:23:16	Dave! It's Robert!
02:23:20	- Dave!
02:23:22	I'm gonna kill him.
02:23:24	I'm calling SFPD. Where's my gun?
02:23:29	Dave!
02:23:31	Robert! Go away!
02:23:32	Dave! He made a mistake!
02:23:35	- Get away from the window.
02:23:37	No, you won't.
02:23:39	- You have to hear this!
02:23:42	The birthday was the one time
02:23:44	The one time
02:23:46	- Robert, I am calling the police.
02:23:54	Where did you get that name?
02:23:57	He called the Bellis' house.
02:23:58	December '69.
02:24:01	It was his birthday.
02:24:03	Arthur Leigh Allen
02:24:09	Get in here.
02:24:12	- Here you go.
02:24:17	He wrote me, you know?
02:24:20	2,500 suspects,
02:24:21	the only one who ever wrote me
02:24:26	They like to help, you know, sometimes.
02:24:27	Yes, Robert, I know.
02:24:30	He was arrested January 1975
02:24:33	He sent me that when he got out.
02:24:35	"Dear Dave, if I can ever be
02:24:38	"I'm sorry I wasn't your man. "
02:24:40	And it's typewritten.
02:24:42	Using a typewriter is not a crime.
02:24:45	And he knew Darlene.
02:24:49	It's in the Vallejo files.
02:24:56	Mulanax said that
02:24:59	That you spent two years on him,
02:25:06	All the evidence said no.
02:25:10	Sherwood disqualified his handwriting.
02:25:12	The same Sherwood
02:25:16	Yes, you have Sherwood Morrill
02:25:18	"I'm sorry, this just won't work. "
02:25:19	- But you also have Terry Pascoe...
02:25:21	Yeah, fine, it's his protégé,
02:25:22	but he's a handwriting expert
02:25:24	"Do not disqualify this suspect
02:25:27	- So the two cancel each other out.
02:25:29	It was Sherwood's case.
02:25:30	He was the head
02:25:32	If it went to trial,
02:25:33	all the defense would have to do
02:25:36	And there was no way of getting Allen
02:25:39	because there was no evidence, Robert.
02:25:40	What do you mean,
02:25:42	You have him seen with the ciphers.
02:25:43	The military boot prints.
02:25:45	The Most Dangerous Game.
02:25:48	The background with school children.
02:25:49	The misspellings of Christ-mass.
02:25:51	All circumstantial.
02:25:53	Paul Stine's shirt, his wallet, his keys.
02:25:56	We should have found
02:25:57	- We didn't.
02:26:02	Okay. Catherine Allen states that
02:26:04	"Leigh cleaned out his trailer
02:26:06	"and moved it to Santa Rosa
02:26:10	You interviewed him
02:26:12	- Yeah.
02:26:13	he's moving into a different county
02:26:19	Okay. Okay.
02:26:22	All right.
02:26:23	Okay, Arthur Leigh Allen
02:26:26	- When was the first murder in Vallejo?
02:26:29	Eight months before that,
02:26:31	and his family discovers
02:26:34	- Now, when do the letters begin?
02:26:36	After the murder of Darlene Ferrin.
02:26:38	And they continue
02:26:41	Now, after that, do any of the letters
02:26:44	No. Because he dumped them,
02:26:46	Because he knew
02:26:48	- So, when's the next letter from Zodiac?
02:26:52	He is silent for three years.
02:26:53	Then, in '74, he feels comfortable again
02:26:55	because everybody's moved off
02:26:57	And what do we get?
02:26:58	Three new letters from Zodiac
02:27:03	- But then the letters stop.
02:27:09	He's arrested.
02:27:12	January, 1975,
02:27:15	We don't get another letter from Zodiac
02:27:18	- When is he released?
02:27:21	Allen gets out. He types you an apology,
02:27:25	We get our first new Zodiac letter
02:27:33	Okay. Zodiac had to have known
02:27:37	Yes, because of the phone calls
02:27:39	Because of the Vallejo file,
02:27:42	we know that Darlene knew
02:27:44	Yes.
02:27:45	So, all coincidence aside, Robert,
02:27:47	how can you be sure that Leigh Allen
02:27:50	Now, Vallejo is a small town,
02:27:53	How do you put
02:27:54	This is a case that's covered
02:27:57	with victims and suspects
02:28:00	- Would you agree?
02:28:03	Darlene Ferrin worked
02:28:06	on the corner of Tennessee and Caroll.
02:28:11	Arthur Leigh Allen lived in his
02:28:17	Door to door, that is less than 50 yards.
02:28:24	Is that true?
02:28:27	I've walked it.
02:28:32	Jesus Christ.
02:28:40	So?
02:28:45	The prints, the handwriting...
02:28:47	- I'm not asking you as a cop.
02:28:53	I can't prove this.
02:28:55	Just because you can't prove it,
02:28:58	Easy, Dirty Harry.
02:29:03	Finish the book.
02:29:14	Thank you. Thank you for breakfast.
02:30:24	Can I help you?
02:30:28	No.
02:31:50	Mr. Mageau.
02:31:52	Thanks for coming to see me.
02:31:54	You're the one I talked to on the phone?
02:31:56	I'm George Bawart. Vallejo PD.
02:32:00	It's been 22 years.
02:32:03	Well, this is just a formality.
02:32:05	I'm gonna show you
02:32:06	Now, the person that shot you
02:32:08	among these photographs.
02:32:10	You don't have to pick anybody out
02:32:12	just because I'm showing you
02:32:14	Yes, sir, I do.
02:32:16	All right.
02:32:19	Take your time.
02:32:21	If you don't recognize anyone,
02:32:35	That's him.
02:32:38	How sure are you?
02:32:40	Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
02:32:44	He had a round face like this guy.
02:32:46	Wait. Am I to understand
02:32:47	that you're now identifying
02:32:49	No, no. Just that
02:32:54	It's this man.
02:32:56	All right.
02:32:59	Now, on a scale of one to 10,
02:33:07	how sure are you?
02:33:12	At least an eight.
02:33:16	The last time I saw this face
02:33:24	I am very sure

Zodiac
