[As Carl exits the alley, not running but not wasting any time, he hears a whistle, looks over to see Ricky standing beside Charlie's jeep. Carl trots over and slips behind the wheel, starts to hotwire it as Ricky moves down the block to keep watch.]

ANOTHER ANGLE

[MacLeod and Charlie come around the corner toward Charlie's car. The driver's door is ajar, but before they have the chance to realize what this means, their attention is caught by Ricky standing lookout, who whistles shrilly at their approach.]

[At the whistle, Carl, who was crouched under the dash, hidden by the door, rises. He sees Charlie and MacLeod approaching. MacLeod instantly feels the BUZZ.]

MacLEOD - No, but I've got a friend who does. Somebody tried to steal his car.

RICKY - That's too bad.

MacLEOD - You wouldn't know anything about it?

RICKY - Nope.

MacLEOD - Or the guy who did it. He's twenty-eight, built . . . Moves like one of the guys in the Nike commercials.

RICKY - [too quickly] Sorry.

MacLEOD - Sorry, you don't know him? Or "sorry" you aren't going to help me?

RICKY - Sorry, I just got into town. My Lear jet was having engine trouble, so iI had the pilot land to check it out.

MacLEOD - Your Lear jet.

RICKY - That's right. [beat] Gotta get back to the airport. [moves off]

MacLEOD - Hey . . . [Ricky turns.] You know how to whistle?

RICKY - Nope.

DARLEEN - No, I haven't.

CARTER - [with a look] Right.

[Carter turns away. Kenny smiles at the woman, almost apologetically.]
