1:56:03
I guess I can manage.
1:56:14
- What does it mean?
- That you killed Hollis Mulwray.
1:56:19
Right here. In that pond.
1:56:22
You drowned him,
and you left these.
1:56:29
The coroner's report shows Mulwray
had salt water in his lungs.
1:56:36
Hollis was always fascinated
by tide pools.
1:56:41
- You know what he used to say?
- I haven't the faintest idea.
1:56:45
"That's where life begins, tide pools!"
1:56:50
He figured that if you
dumped water into the desert sand -
1:56:54
- And let it percolate
down to the bedrock. -
1:56:57
- It wouldn't evaporate the way it does
in reservoirs. You lose 20%, not 80%.
1:57:03
- He made this city!
- You were gonna do that in the Valley?
1:57:07
I am doing it. When the bond issue
passes Tuesday -
1:57:10
- There will be eight million dollars
to build a reservoir.
1:57:14
People will be mad when they find out
they're paying for water they won't get.
1:57:19
That's all taken care of. You see. -
1:57:22
- Either you bring the water to L.A.
or you bring L.A. to the water.
1:57:27
- How are you gonna do that?
- I'll incorporate the Valley into the city.
1:57:34
- How much are you worth?
- How much do you want?
1:57:37
- Are you worth over ten million?
- Oh, yes.
1:57:41
Why are you doing it? What can
you buy that you can't already afford?
1:57:46
The future, Mr Gittes. The future.
1:57:51
Now where's the girl?
I want the only daughter I've got left.
1:57:55
As you now,
Evelyn was lost to me a long time ago.
1:57:58
- Who do you blame for that? Her?
- I don't blame myself.
