Los Angeles Times undercover reporter Irwin M. “Fletch” Fletcher (who writes as “Jane Doe”) is writing an article exposing drug trafficking on the beaches of Los Angeles. While posing as an addict, he is approached by Boyd Aviation executive vice president Alan Stanwyk, who assumes Fletch is a real junkie. Stanwyk claims to have bone cancer, with only months left to live, and wishes to avoid the suffering. Stanwyk offers $50,000 for Fletch to kill him at his mansion in a few days’ time, stage the scene as a burglary, then flee to Rio de Janeiro.Fletch 1985 Movie Download.
Fletch, not completely convinced on the truth of Stanwyk’s story, agrees to the plan. Along with his colleague Larry, he begins investigating Stanwyk instead of completing his drug exposé, much to the anger of his authoritarian editor Frank Walker. Disguised as a doctor, Fletch accesses Stanwyk’s file at the hospital and learns he does not have cancer.Fletch 1985 Movie Download.
Fletch visits Stanwyk’s wife Gail at her tennis club. Pretending to be a tennis instructor and Alan’s friend, he flirts with her during a tennis lesson. Looking into Stanwyk’s finances, Fletch finds that Gail recently converted $3 million of her personal stock in Boyd Aviation into cash for her husband, to buy a ranch in Provo, Utah. Fletch travels to Provo and breaks into the realtor’s office and discovers the sale price was only $3,000.Fletch 1985 Movie Download.
Meanwhile, LAPD Chief Jerry Karlin learns of Fletch’s drug report. He warns Fletch that the article will jeopardize his undercover operation on the beach. Karlin threatens to kill Fletch unless he agrees to drop the investigation.
At the tennis club, Fletch witnesses arrogant club member Mr. Underhill shouting at a waiter, and decides as revenge to use Underhill’s tab to treat Gail to an expensive lunch in her private cabana. Fletch reveals Alan’s murder scheme to her and tells her the true price of the ranch.
