Harry and Paula set out to retrieve the latest artifact, with Paula scuba diving to bring it to the surface of the ocean. Paula admits that she, Tom Iverson, and Marv Ellman were in the process of smuggling a Yucatan artifact piece by piece, estimated worth a half million dollars. Tom Iverson admits killing Quentin to Harry before knocking himself out by ramming his head into a pole. ![]() Harry finds Quentin dead in the water (not hyperbole). Harry believes Quentin rigged Ellman's plane to crash, and rigged the car Joey was driving that killed Delly, because he thought Quentin knew that Delly knew that he rigged Ellman's plane. Shortly after, Delly dies in a failed car stunt with Joey Ziegler driving. (She used to do the horizontal tango with Quentin). Delly does tell Quentin she saw Ellman dead. Marv Ellman is found dead in the water (not hyperbole) by Delly, who high tails it back home with Harry to her mother, without telling Harry who it was she saw dead. Tom Iverson (John Crawford) and Paula (Jennifer Warren) live together and work a charter fishing (and smuggling) operation in Florida. Joey Ziegler (Edward Binns) and Quentin (James Woods) often work together.

Harry doesn't know any of the other players he comes across until he meets them for the first time. Marty Heller was also the name of my pharmacist when I was a kid. Ellen is cheating on Harry with Marty Heller (Harris Yulin). ![]() ![]() Harry's marriage to Ellen (Susan Clark) is on the rocks.
