In the Heat of the Night

In the Heat of the Night, released in 1967, is a timeless American mystery-drama film that captivated audiences with its powerful performances and thought-provoking storyline. Directed by Norman Jewison and based on John Ball's novel of the same name, this critically acclaimed movie delves into the themes of racism, justice, and the complexities of human nature.

The film showcases an impressive ensemble cast that breathed life into the compelling characters, and their chemistry on screen was electric. Sidney Poitier, one of Hollywood's most iconic actors, portrays Virgil Tibbs, a highly skilled African-American detective from Philadelphia who finds himself in a small Mississippi town. His exceptional performance earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor, and he truly solidified himself as a trailblazer in the industry. Tibbs's surprising partnership with Bill Gillespie, the town's narrow-minded police chief, created a fascinating dynamic. While struggling to establish their authority, Gillespie was brilliantly portrayed by Rod Steiger. Steiger's portrayal earned him an Oscar for Best Actor, underscoring the film's impact and recognition within the industry.

In the Heat of the Night tackles the prevalent issue of racism head-on, depicting the struggles and obstacles that Tibbs faces in a deeply divided community. As tensions simmer, it becomes clear that the murder case Tibbs is brought in to investigate is entangled in a web of prejudice and bigotry. The film brilliantly highlights the stark contrast between the North and the South in terms of racial progress, forcing the characters and the audience to confront their own biases and preconceived notions.

The film's score, composed by Quincy Jones, is a marvel in itself. Jones's talent is evident through the fusion of jazz and orchestral music into a captivating soundtrack that effortlessly captures the film's mood and atmosphere. The music serves as a significant tool in intensifying emotional moments and building suspense, enhancing the overall viewing experience. Fortunately, fans of this classic film can now play and download these evocative sounds to relive their favorite scenes and immerse themselves in the captivating world of In the Heat of the Night.

In addition to its critical acclaim, the film was also a commercial success and spawned two sequels, They Call Me Mr. Tibbs! (1970) and The Organization (1971). The success of the franchise further solidified the impact and legacy of In the Heat of the Night.

Beyond the film, In the Heat of the Night became a television series that captivated audiences for six seasons, from 1988 to 1995. The show, created by James Lee Barrett, was set in the fictional town of Sparta, Mississippi, and centered around the lives of its police force and their interactions with the community. The television adaptation boasted an exceptional ensemble cast that included Carroll O'Connor as Chief Bill Gillespie, Howard Rollins as Virgil Tibbs, and Anne-Marie Johnson as Tibbs's newly assigned partner, Althea Tibbs.

The television series expanded on the themes of its predecessor, addressing the social issues of the time, including racism, corruption, and class struggles.

A deposit that size, I'd remember.
A gun's not smart. The way you killed Colbert was much smarter.
A little after 11, I think.
A little careless, ain't you, Virgil?
A lot you care!
A man ate the last piece just before you come in.
A man's name.
A six inch celluloid scale.
According to this, he made a deposit of... $632.
Ain't ya?
All right now, give him the waiver for false arrest.
All right, boys.
All right, Courtney. That's enough.
All right, Fryer, bring him with me.
All right, hold it!
All right, now! Steady!
All right, now.
All right, Virgil. Just what the hell do you want?
All right, you can move us. Officer Wood.
All right.
All right.
All right. C'mon, Ralph.
All right. Give me another day. Two days. I'm close.
All right. Let him out.
All right. Sam comes along and stops in front of your house and talks. What else?
All right. Send him in.
All right... Virgil.
Am I mistaken, or has rigor begun?
Ammonium hydrosulphide, benzidine, superoxide of hydrogen.
And a desk with a busted leg. And on top of that, I got...
And he said "Sure." And I said "Well, I wonder where it's gonna be."
And he said... "The cemetery. That's where."
And he was, uh, kinda...
And how am I gonna say so locked up in here?
And I got an air conditioner that I have to oil myself,
And I mean, boy, like now!
And I said "No, Sam. I guess I don't."
And I say "Sure."
And if he fails, you're off the hook, cos it was Miz Colbert's idea in the first place.
And leave you...
And meanwhile, you killed yourself a white man and picked yourself up $200!
And old Charlie's hound dog got loose...
And so she starts to show me.
And that takes time.
And then things went a bit too far. Is that what you're sayin'?
And there's this wallet lyin' beside him.
And when I got up to $600, I took it down and put it in the bank.
And yesterday he makes a big cash deposit at the bank.
And you lock him up for withholding evidence.
And you're gonna be a real nice quiet boy all the way in.
And, uh...
And, Wood, run Virgil down the depot.
Any reason why you have to leave today?
Anyway, she asks me, she says, uh...
As you know, the loss of heat from the brain is the most reliable way
Because a man that makes $162.39 a week
Because Colbert was killed here!
Because whenever I got enough change, I'd trade it in on $20 bills.
Because, like the n****,
Before Gillepsbie grabbed me.
Believe me, we're gonna take care of everything.
Better get in here with a pad and a pencil.
Bill?
Bill?
Borrow Mr Fanning's razor and cut your throat!
Bourbon can't cure it.
Boy, I got a town that... don't want me.
Boy, I mean, I come into this world outta luck.
Boy, it would give me a world of satisfaction to horsewhip you, Virgil!
But do it fast.
But I didn't do nothin' wrong.
But I don't think I have to do that, you see?
But Oberst could have come along after the crime, found it, picked it up.
But she kept bumpin' her price, and I don't know if she's still in business.
But she's coming here tonight.
But suppose Mr Fanning's razor is too dull.
But there's no point in ducking it.
But when I see whose wallet it is...
But you gotta do it, you hear?
But, uh... Packy might know.
C'mon, boy.
C'mon, Sam.
Callipers. And some toothpicks.
Came all this way to build us a factory,
Change the charge to theft.
Change your route back there at the corner.
Check both ends of town, check the depot, and check the pool hall. OK?
Chief here?
Child... you promise...
Close to it.
Colbert come down from Chicago to build it.
Colbert must have picked up somebody in town and then come out here.
Colbert wasn't killed where the body was found.
Coloured can't earn that. It's more than I make in a month! Where did you earn it?!
Come here.
Come on in. I want you to take this all down.
Come on now. Is that what you're tryin' to say?
Come on, girl! Is it or ain't it?
Come on.
Comes chargin' outta the bush and hauls me in.
Copper powder, distilled water.
Cos Colbert's only the start.
Could have been a hitchhiker.
Could you follow the same route you followed Tuesday night, same speed?
Courtney, your brother says I didn't tell him to fix that hinge, so I told you.
Courtney... would you try and get me long distance?
D'you mean Harve?
Did he call you, or anybody on your staff, after 11?
Did he force you, or did you let him?
Did they get a little bit outta line?
Did you hear? Did you hear him say he'd pay for the call?
Did your husband tell you where he was going last night?
Did your husband use a car here?
Didn't I ask you to fix that gate?
Do I work for you, or do I work for him?
Do it, please.
Do you know what I'm gonna do, Virgil?
Do you read me, Courtney?
Do you think Sam did it?
Do you wanna look at it?
Don't make me have to send you to jail.
Don't mean a damn whether she let him or not! She is still 16!
Don't you bet against it.
Don't you get just... a little lonely?
Don't you worry about him.
Down at the pool hall. But, man, he wouldn't tell you.
Endicott's covering up.
Endicott's folly.
Endicott's?! Come on, now!
ENHOH
Even if we have to step on Endicott's toes?
Even that.
Ever been close to it?
Ever been in trouble with the police before?
Ever been?
Excuse me.
Fern root? Oh, is Mr Endicott here?
Find anything?
First name, last name.
For offering me such a powerful piece of manpower as Virgil Tibbs.
For steppin' outta line,
From an angle of 17 degrees from the right,
Get against that wall. Get them hands high!
Get behind him!
Get herself straight.
Gillespie?
Gimme that thing!
Give him a pen. Give him a pen.
Give him somethin' that runs. Fix him up.
Give me till morning.
Give me understanding.
Go ahead. Go ahead.
Go on, move! Put him with his friend, Harvey Oberst!
God Almighty. He sure looks bad.
Gonna teach you, boy!
Good night, gentlemen.
Got a name, boy?
Got no more smile than a turnip.
Got some real luscious cream pie for you tonight, Sam.
Got your chief on the phone. He wants to talk to you.
Harold.
Harvey's a lefty. Uh huh.
He don't knock me outta my socks.
He gonna get hisself killed.
He got her to tell you that Sam Wood did it.
He has no police power here. He's gonna have to hand him over on a platter, right?
He leaves me all alone.
He let you go, didn't he?
He made a fool out of you, Purdy.
He said he wasn't sleepy. I went to bed.
He said that field we were comin' up to was it, and he would stop and show me.
He sits up on his hill and runs this county.
He was afraid I'd see some naked white girl down the block.
He was hit from behind!
He was nowhere near the scene of the crime, and I think he can prove it.
He'd have shot Tibbs one second after he slapped Endicott, claimed self defence.
He's crazy. Crazy.
He's dead.
He's got a nice face, don't you think, Chief?
He's had an account with us for several years now.
He's with me.
He's your number one homicide expert?
Hello, Doc.
Hello? Yes, sir. I'm sorry to have gotten you involved in this.
Hello. This is Gillespie. Yes, sir. Yep, well...
Here is the examination results from Ulam's. You wanna know what I found?
Here you are.
Here's the first good thing to come my way. And I pick it up.
Hey, look, Purdy.
Hey!
Hey! C'mon!
Hey! C'mon! C'mon!
Hey! You can't go in there, boy!
Hey.
Hit him, man! Get him from the side!
Hold on there, Arnold. Open her up again. We got another customer.
How come with all these empty cells here they'd throw me in with you? You dig?
How much do they pay you to do their police work?
How much? I bet you he's not paying you more than a hundred.
How's that?
I ain't talkin' about this with him in the room.
I already told 'em.
I am not interested in '62 September. I am interested in yesterday.
I asked him to look at the body. That's who he is.
I believe Harvey is a southpaw. Now, ain't he, Shagbag?
I believe he will.
I came by to make it as clear as I possibly can
I came in on the 12.35 from Brownsville.
I can pull that fat cat down. I can bring him right off this hill!
I could ask at the desk, you know.
I could give him a nicer service right here in Sparta
I didn't know it was possible to grow this species locally.
I didn't know you'd slap any white man! Least of all Endicott!
I didn't mean to kill him.
I didn't mean to kill him.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't need it.
I don't think that you could let an opportunity like that pass by.
I don't think we need any help. We can wrap this up ourselves.
I earned that money, ten hours a day, seven days a week.
I found a piece of osmunda in Colbert's car.
I found a piece of wood in Colbert's scalp. The lab identified it as pine.
I got used to better.
I had to buy paper and film and developin'.
I hear they're gonna hire a thousand men. Half of them'd be coloured.
I hear.
I just didn't stop her from tryin' to prove her point.
I just picked it up, ma'am. That's all I did.
I just talked to the FBI lab. We can prove Colbert was in that greenhouse.
I just thought maybe, uh... Maybe you wouldn't mind takin' a look at this one?
I know that Colbert cashed a cheque for $900.
I know that Sam made a big cash deposit.
I know that you caught him in a lie. And I know that's enough for me.
I know the laws in the state of Mississippi, thank you!
I know.
I mean now!
I mean Officer Wood. Just like you always order.
I mean, I start to sweat. But I heard about this new chief. This Gillepsbie?
I mean, it would be quicker. And I'll pay for the call.
I picked it up, I tell you. He was already lyin' there. It was lyin' there next to him!
I really had no choice.
I said "I sure would like a job in that new factory once you get started."
I said "Now, Ralph, all you gotta do when we get out...
I said to myself "Man, he's askin' for it."
I say this ****** won't live past Saturday.
I see this fella lyin' on the street there.
I see.
I see.
I tell you he didn't pick up nobody.
I thought I told you to get outta here.
I thought that's who you was.
I told you 'bout that "Sam" business, didn't I? Hm?
I try to run a nice, clean, safe town here.
I wanna know exactly where Sam was at all times on the night of the murder.
I wanna see you come through this now, you hear?
I want that officer given a free hand.
I was hung up trying to get Endicott, for personal reasons.
I was visiting my mother.
I was waiting to go out on the 4.05.
I won't take it away.
I wonder if you know why.
I would write it on the head of a pin if you want it there.
I'd drive up there, but I'm sure you don't want me running up there by myself.
I'll check on this wise city boy. You take him outside and hold him.
I'll have the FBI lab send you the report on this.
I'll let you have her for free.
I'll remember that.
I'll take that.
I'll tell you a secret.
I'll tell you, baby brother, the chief didn't like him, not even from the first.
I'm a police officer.
I'm afraid you're too late. We already got the guilty man.
I'm all you've got.
I'm askin' you to sign it. Please.
I'm aware of the risk, Tom. But, like it or not, we're stuck with him.
I'm gonna take you to Brownsville and put you on the bus myself.
I'm interested in eleven to two. Where were you?
I'm not here to lay a finger on you, Mama.
I'm on your side.
I'm sending it in personally.
I'm tellin' you that you're gonna stay.
I'm thinkin' how nice it'd be if I had a fountain drink.
I'm workin' on it.
If a guy knocks up a girl in this town, where can he go for help?
If Delores Purdy hadn't come in, I never would have seen the truth.
If he's been in an accident. I want to know if he is all right!
If I told you once, I told you a hundred times
If it weren't for them radios, we woulda lost him goin' over that bridge.
If you weren't suspicious of Sam here,
In fact, we just dropped the charges for insufficient evidence.
In this state, that's ****! I know the plain law on that!
Innocent.
Is coloured time.
Is just sneak up behind him and just... tap him."
Is this what the epiphytics root in?
It has.
It wouldn't be a bad idea to change the charge against Oberst.
It's 4.45. What time was this man killed?
It's about Sam Wood.
It's all my fault.
It's gonna be tough to keep you in your job now.
It's important that I hear this.
It's the white boy I want.
It's very hot in here.
It's very hot in this room.
It's, uh...
Jess, this is, uh...
Jess?
John, you stick here. We'll keep cruisin'.
Just homesick.
Just like he comes every night.
Just once in my life I'm gonna hold my temper.
Keep cool, Harvey.
Know what's gonna happen?
Last chief we had,
Let me see your right hand.
Let me understand this.
Let's get rollin', Virgil.
Listen to that. That's crazy.
Listen, I'm get...
Listen. You know something I don't know?
Look in her purse.
Look what it got him.
Look, I oughta know what I did! Chief, do I have to put up with this?
Look.
Lord, Lord!
Lots.
Make somethin' outta this town.
Makin' decisions on your own, and all that.
Mama, I'm not from around here. But you can put me on my train.
Man, we do not wanna ruffle him!
Man, you're just like the rest of us.
Marble cake.
Martin, I want you to take Mrs Colbert over to the funeral parlour.
Martin, lock him up.
May I examine this prisoner?
May I get in?
May I see the man I am supposed to have killed?
May I suggest that you call my chief rather than send a wire or anything?
Maybe half.
Maybe it would be helpful if you'd tell me.
Maybe the elevator boy can tell us what time he went out.
Maybe... I don't want to sever a beautiful child like you right out.
Mayor's on the line, Chief.
Might reasonably regard you as the person least likely to mourn his passing.
Miz Colbert seems to have confidence in him.
Miz Colbert, I told you he was nobody's man.
Miz Colbert, now don't you worry about a thing.
Mm hm.
Mm hm.
Mm.
Money she got from Ralph.
Move it!
Mr Colbert drove by, so I hitched a ride with him. That's all.
Mr Tibbs, do you know anything about orchids?
Mr Tibbs! Well, Mr Wood, take Mr Tibbs, take him down to the depot.
Mrs Bellamy?
Mrs Colbert, can you tell me about your husband's enemies?
Mrs Colbert, I, uh... I wonder if you'd mind if I have somebody drive you over
Mrs Colbert.
Mrs Colbert... There's just one more thing.
Mrs Colbert's in there.
My brother works nights.
My business.
My father used to say that.
My husband is dead.
My point! They thrive on it.
n**** officer?
Never more than... Yeah.
Never.
****** lover.
Nights, they aren't any better.
No club this time, man?
No killer, no factory.
No lonelier than you, man.
No pity, thank you.
No trouble at all.
No, I'm not.
No, ma'am. We ain't had no cover up.
No, not me, sir. Must have been my brother Harold. He's on days.
No, sir!
No, sir. I'm not prejudiced.
No, thank you, Packy. You go on home.
No, thank you!
No, thanks.
No, you won't.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No. Because I got Colbert's wallet in my hand, and we took it from Harvey Oberst.
No. Because you're so damned smart. You're smarter than any white man.
No. He catch you listenin' in, he'll run your butt around the block.
No. I don't need to look at 'em now.
No. I'll find a motel.
Nobody comes here.
None of that for you, huh, Virgil?
Not a large account.
Not if the chief here is right on the ball.
Not mine yours. You made this scene.
Not now!
Not that it'll make any difference.
Not unless I say so.
Nothin'.
Now listen, you. Anything he wants, man, you better see that he gets it.
Now listen.
Now listen. Hear me good, Mama, please.
Now look here, Bill. I don't have to tell you how urgent it is to get Tibbs outta town.
Now look, Bill. Suppose he turns up the killer.
Now look.
Now look. I got no wife. I got no kids.
Now you listen to me.
Now you're talkin'!
Now, Bill, how about this here n**** officer?
Now, don't you think that'd drive a man to takin' a few drinks?
Now, I got one more question. Very important.
Now, is that a suggestion, or is that an order?
Now, Miz Colbert is not gonna be back till Thursday.
Now, outside there's a police car. You're gonna pick up that bag.
Now, somebody sure oughta make her stop doin' that.
Now, what'd you do when you came out that night?
Now, you are the number one homicide expert.
Now, you got a complaint? Well, right here's where you file it.
Of determining time of death.
Officer!
Oh, boy.
Oh, come on. Come on, girl, speak!
Oh, good. Yeah, yeah. Right away. I've got a runaway suspect, boy. I gotta go.
Oh, he ain't nothin'. Some kind of a...
Oh, it's all there. We paid for the phone call ourselves.
Oh, may I have Henry fetch you somethin'? Some light refreshment?
Oh, now, don't get smart, black boy.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, you can go now, Sam.
Oh, you'll send me that letter for the file, you hear?
Oh!
OK, black boy. We come here to teach you some manners.
OK. I got him.
On police department letterhead?
On your feet, boy.
Onions?
Only, this time he stops.
Or did, until we moved in.
Otherwise, I will pack up my husband's engineers...
Our man is Endicott.
Packy, Chief. Packy Harrison. I'm a friend of Harve.
Parked in the road, you could get yourself killed. Anybody'd know where you are.
Passin' like a lord in that fine, big, shiny car.
People around here call me Mama Caleba.
Place.
Play it cool, boy. Play it cool.
Police department.
Police?
Police.
Policeman.
Right on the button.
Right, Chief?
Sam comes down our road.
Sam couldn't have driven two cars!
Sam followed him here, come up behind him, just like I come up behind you.
Sam found him at 3am. The doctor says it's possible he was killed an hour earlier.
Sam, did he have a wallet, identification, anything like that?
See what I mean?
She is gonna have a baby. Sam Wood's baby.
She parades around in the nude at night to get her kicks. That's...
She says, uh... (s******s)
She won't hold it against us we had to send Tibbs home for his own good.
She's real proud of what nature done for her, you know?
Shoot.
Shootin' pool. Larry's Lounge. I got there about ten.
Showing our depositors' accounts? Hm. I don't know.
Shut up and take this trash outta here! Come on, move it and go!
Shut up.
Sit down, little girl.
Sit down.
So he stopped.
So I cut across the fields, headin' for the line, and got myself as far as the bridge
So the time of death really has to be earlier. Wouldn't you say?
So you could, uh... complete the identification?
So, how come they locked you up? How come they lock up a cop?
So, Wood took you to the cemetery in the patrol car, right?
Some kind of a homicide expert. But I don't need him.
Some people let us say the people who work for Mr Colbert
Some tweezers.
Somebody in this town killed him! I want you to find out who!
Somebody killed him.
Somebody owes me some money for those.
Sorry, Mr Wood. I mean, uh... Officer Wood.
Spread them fingers out. I wanna count all ten.
Suppose he's got some real money to spread around.
Suppose I get word to Packy that you wanna see him? Have him come here?
Sure do. I got him top, bottom, sideways you name it.
Sure. I don't know why not.
Take it away from them, they do poorly.
Take ten minutes to get myself a king sized Coke and a wedge of pie.
Ted Ulam, Chief. We haven't had the pleasure.
Tell you what, Sam. Bein' she's in there by her little old lonesome,
Ten cents, ten million dollars just doesn't matter when a man's time comes.
Than he could ever get up there in Chicago. And at half the price, too.
Thank you.
Thank you.
That cracker? (chuckles)
That I do not want that n**** officer taken off this case.
That I won that matchin' quarters and halves. It took me three years!
That is, if that peckerwood ain't sold out again.
That of all the orchids in this place, you should prefer the epiphytics.
That old boy highballing that train like to cut us off.
That so?
That was back in '62. September.
That's a warnin'!
That's all right. Just bill the department. Everything will be taken care of.
That's all.
That's Endicott. He's been fighting us all the way.
That's for him.
That's for sure.
That's for sure. I want you to cover every angle. Do you hear me? Every angle.
That's her place, here. You want me to wait?
That's pretty fat there, ain't it, boy? Huh?
That's right.
That's somethin' Mr Colbert didn't realise.
That's somethin' you can't make some people understand.
That's the first thing I looked for. Whoever fixed him musta took 'em.
That's very good.
That's what Mrs Colbert thinks. She wants us to catch her a killer.
The cemetery.
The day Colbert was killed, he cashed a cheque for $900, $600 of which is gone,
The man who's paying you for Delores Purdy's abortion.
The man you arrested, did he confess?
The river, you hear? He's gonna be in Arkansas.
The wrong man?! I got the motive, which is money, and the body, which is dead!
Then driven back to town in his own car and dumped on the streets.
Then this cop, Sam Wood,
Then why was it in big bills? I checked.
There used to be a coloured gal.
There was a time... when I could have had you shot.
There's cue chalk under his nails, not dried blood.
There's lots of reasons.
There's white time in jail, and coloured time. The worst kind you can do
Thermometer.
They chew you up and spit you out.
They need a whipping boy.
They need care and feedin' and cultivatin'.
They pay you $162.39 a week just to look at bodies. Why can't you look at this one?
They put it on self service after ten.
They stealin' your soul.
They've got a murder they don't know what to do with.
This here's Shagbag, you hear? He's headed for the river.
This here's Virgil.
This is Virgil. He's workin' for me.
This particular night, I go out on the porch.
This town needs a factory, Virgil.
This, uh...
Three people saw Colbert drive by alone on the way back from Endicott's.
Tibbs?
To ask you about Mr Colbert.
To yourselves.
Told me not to mess with her no more. She lives on Third, a block from me.
Tom, climb off of Gillespie's back now.
Toothpicks?! Copper...? What's goin' on here, Chief?
Traipsin' around in the altogether. With the lights on.
Tuesday night you walked out of here at 2.40. Right?
Two minutes from now.
Uh, last Wednesday.
Uh, you boys, move on back now, OK?
Uh...
Uh...
Uh...
Uh... Virge here, Chief, he thinks that Harvey's innocent.
Uh... Wood to radio. I'm leavin' Compton's now.
Ulam's Funer... It's for you, Chief.
Viola... We got company.
Virge, what's happenin'?
Virgil Tibbs.
Virgil, if you get killed, we'll have one hell of a mess in this town. You know that?
Virgil, we don't need you or your microscopes. Tell that to your chief.
Virgil?
Virgil?
Wait a minute. That train don't leave till noon.
Was Mr Colbert ever in this greenhouse? Say, last night, about midnight?
We don't know who yet.
We don't need him or you.
We told you about them bad manners, boy. You better put that down.
We were just trying to clarify some of the evidence.
We'll put that round your neck.
Well, ask her yourself if you don't believe me!
Well, at least he won't be movin' on me.
Well, boy! Take him outside, Wood. But treat him easy,
Well, come on now, girl. What else? What else? What else?
Well, got your ticket?
Well, he seemed left handed to me.
Well, I ain't got no watch, but it must have been after two, by the courthouse clock.
Well, I believe he will.
Well, I don't need you!
Well, I don't think we're gonna have any trouble, are we, Virgil?
Well, I know. Do you understand?
Well, I picked up the radio and called in.
Well, I think that you're the first human being that's ever been in here.
Well, I'm sorry, ma'am, but I say different.
Well, it's a lotta jobs for a lotta coloured people. You follow me?
Well, just what do you know about insomnia?
Well, my, my, my.
Well, they brought me in one time.
Well, uh, this Delores, she, uh...
Well, uh...
Well, uh... how about the prisoner here?
Well, Virgil, nobody threw your brains to the hogs, that's for damn sure.
Well, we don't wanna take any more of your time, Mr Endicott.
Well, we was on a date up to Clarke's Point, and, uh...
Well, we'll be able to pinpoint that as soon as I get a thermometer.
Well, we'll see.
Well, you can't be too careful, man.
Well, you finally get the message, Virgil?!
Well, you know where to find me.
Well, your...
Well?
Well?
Well.
Well...
Well...
Well...
Well... All right, you say right.
Well... I don't know his name.
Well... that's for sure.
Well... you're making a mistake.
What are you doin' here?
What are you gonna do about it?
What do you say, Chief? You got that old killer all lined up in your front sights, hm?
What do you want?
What I fix, runs. Who pays?
What I got to say, I say to the chief.
What if he is? What's that make him?
What kind of a place is this?
What kind of people are you?
What time did you find the wallet?
What time was that?
What would you say if I asked you to stay for a while?
What you doin' here, man?
What you doin' wearin' white man's clothes?
What you got against him? He's paying for his fun.
What's all this Miz Colbert's been tellin' me about a... a cover up arrest?
What's goin' on?
What's happened to him? Why won't anybody tell me what's happened to him?
What's made you change your mind about Tibbs?
What's that little old orphan sittin' right up there?
When I examined the deceased, it was obvious the fatal blow was struck
When I left her house, I was going to the diner.
When?
When's the last time I asked Courtney to get oil for this damn thing?
Where can I wash my hands?
Where d'you come from?
Where do I find Packy?
Where you goin'?
Where you keepin' the pie tonight?
Which makes it almost certain the person who did it is right handed.
Which one of you gentlemen will assist me?
Whisper two little words, Mama, and I'm on my way.
Who are you?
Who is this boy anyway?
Who said they locked me up?
Who says I changed?
Who says I have?
Who the hell else do we have back there?!
Whoa.
Why did you question him last night when he changed his route?
Why don't you shut up, Sam?
Why don't you tell me how you killed Mr Colbert? You'll feel a whole lot better.
Why won't anybody here tell me? I have a right to know if he's hurt,
Why you wanna do that?
Why you wanna help the police like that?
Why, isn't that remarkable!
Why'd you two come here?
Will you let him bring me a cheeseburger?
Wood, you take him,
Works out all the way around, Bill. For all of us.
Would you be kind enough to go outside and remind him what day it is today?
Would you feel the face and jaw, please?
Would you mind taking a look at that?
Would you...
Yeah, I hear. I hear.
Yeah, well, he, uh... He comes from up North, you see.
Yeah, well, it's gonna be his week.
Yeah, you can look at him. C'mon, let him look. Go on.
Yeah! Oh, yeah!
Yeah?
Yeah?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. Talk to me.
Yep.
Yes siree, I believe he will.
Yes, he's here. Hold on, sir.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir. But I do want to thank you
Yes, sir. He's out in the greenhouse. Would you follow me, please?
Yes, sir. I am a police officer and they're police officers, but...
Yes, sir. Ten four.
Yes, sir. Thank you. Yeah. Goodbye, now.
Yes.
Yesterday? Well...
You a Northern boy? What's a Northern boy like you doin' all the way down here?
You ain't gonna do nothin'. You just stand there and shut up.
You aren't taking me anywhere. You dig? You're holding the wrong man!
You can catch your train now, Virgil.
You can't be serious, sir. I mean, even if I could be of help, they wouldn't want it.
You catch your guilty party by then,
You could never live with yourself unless you could put us all to shame.
You deaf or somethin'?
You don't say?
You don't... we will.
You ever take a homicide picture before, son?
You find him, come back for me, you hear?
You finished?
You gone crazy out of your mind.
You gonna get him outta here, or do I gotta do it?!
You gonna give me that?
You gonna listen to him?
You got a roof?
You had no right to keep a ****** in the room, shame my little sister.
You had no right.
You hear?!
You just think a minute. Didn't you catch Sam in a lie last night?
You killed Colbert?!
You know a lotta things, don't you?
You know damn well we didn't hire him off a homicide squad.
You know how much he's got in his pocket right now? More than $600!
You know I don't eat that stuff. The chief likes his boys streamlined. Right, Chief?
You know what the coolest spot in town is?"
You know, Virgil, you are among the chosen few.
You know...
You married?
You mean you don't want him. But you do need him.
You move before I tell you to, boy, by God, I'm gonna clean your plough.
You stinkin' liar!
You take care. You hear?
You talk crazy. You gin drunk?
You tell me... all about it. Just tell me how it happened.
You turned my little sister... into a field slut?
You two came here... to question me?
You wanna know something, Virgil?
