Deputy Brent:
[DELETED SCENE: Less than a minute after the Gremlins sabotage Mrs. Deagle's stair-climber, thus sending the loathsome woman hurtling to her death, she is discovered by several of her neighbors... who briefly check the body. Finding no life signs, they call out -- up and down the street -- to more of her neighbors. They all come surging out of their houses; a dozen of them break down Mrs. Deagle's door and sweep inside. They rush back out again with furniture and fistfuls of money, passing both around to the happy mob. Joe Harris's widow and their kids hug and kiss each other, weeping with joy. As this crowd of Mrs. Deagle's former debtors rejoice over the fresh turn of events, Brent and Frank look on from across the street in their car]
... Aren't we going to do anything about this?
Sheriff Frank:
[scoffs]
What's there to do, arrest them? On what charge?
Deputy Brent:
Looting Mrs. Deagle's house, of course!
Sheriff Frank:
Brent. First of all, how are two people gonna arrest over a hundred? Second of all, even if the jail was big enough to hold them all -- which it isn't -- name one person in this county who'd convict them for it, let alone twelve. Third of all, Judge McGarrett's name was on the list of properties to be foreclosed in her Hitox deal... as were yours and mine.
Deputy Brent:
Wow...! Touche.
[Taking notice of some furniture being hauled from the house, he jumps out of the car and charges across the street]
Deputy Brent:
Hey! Excuse me... No, you're not in any trouble; that stuff's from my house...!
[Frank shakes his head, smiling to himself]
