THIS JOB SUCKS.
WE'VE GOT COMPANY.
WHAT HAPPENED
TO YOUR HAND, TANNER?
AH, IT'S NOTHIN'.
I'VE HAD WORSE.

[MACHINE BEEPING]
EXCUSE ME.
WHAT ARE YOU
DOING IN HERE?
I'M SITTING
WITH MY PARTNER.
ARE YOU A MEMBER
OF THE IMMEDIATE FAMILY?
LIKE I SAID,
HE'S MY PARTNER.
AND YOU DON'T GET
ANY MORE IMMEDIATE
THAN THAT.
LISTEN, DO YOURSELF
A FAVOR.
GO HOME AND
GET SOME REST.
BOTTOM LINE.
IS HE GOING
TO MAKE IT?
HE'S GOT A FAIR CHANCE.
HE DESERVES BETTER.
P.A.: DR. DAVIS,
TELEPHONE.
PLEASE, DR. DAVIS,
TELEPHONE.
I DON'T KNOW.
I DIDN'T MAKE IT
TO THE GROCERY STORE.
WHY DON'T YOU
TAKE A LOOK?
YOU KNOW, I THINK
I'M GOING TO TAKE
A COUPLE DAYS OFF.
WHY?
WELL, I DON'T LIKE
BEING AWAY FROM YOU.
WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO EAT?
I DON'T KNOW.
WHAT DO YOU GOT?
WELL, WE GOT, UM,
SOME FRUIT.
APPLES, GRAPES,
CHERRIES, WATERMELON.
SOME SANDWICH STUFF.
YOU WANT A SANDWICH?
NO, NO.
UH, MMM. SOME
OLD PIZZA BACK THERE.
HEH. EGGS.
YOU WANT EGGS?
NO. I JUST WANT YOU.
YOU WANT ME?
WE GOT A COMPLAINT
THERE'S A PROWLER
IN THE AREA.
REALLY?
MM-HMM.
I'D EXPECT YOUR FULL
COOPERATION.
OH. I'M WILLING
TO COOPERATE
IN ANY WAY, OFFICER.
WHAT CAN I DO
TO HELP?
ASSUME THE POSITION.
HA HA HA.
JUST LET ME KNOW
IF THERE'S ANYTHING
I CAN DO.
WATCH IT.
SO FAR, YOU'RE
DOING OK.
A PROWLER?
YOU THINK
I'M IN DANGER HERE?
NOT YET.
[TELEPHONE RINGING]
Answering Machine:
HI. YOU'VE REACHED
THE YARNELL RESIDENCE.
NEITHER MIKE
NOR MELISSA ARE HOME.
PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE.
[BEEPS]
Man: MELISSA,
IT'S FARRELL.
IF YOU'RE THERE,
WOULD YOU PICK UP
THE PHONE?
LOOK, I DON'T KNOW
WHY YOU'RE NOT
CALLING ME BACK.
I'M AT THE BAR,
AND I NEED
TO TALK TO YOU.
ALL RIGHT?
JESUS, MELISSA.
BYE.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
EVERY TIME
YOUR BROTHER CALLS,
YOU LOSE IT.
[SOBS]
NO!
[LOUNGE MUSIC PLAYING]
HONEY...
MIKE...
MIKE...
WHAT?
I MANAGED TO GET US
AN APPOINTMENT
WITH DR. HALPERIN.
HE CAN SEE US
AT 10:00.
MELISSA, YOU KNOW
I DON'T LIKE SHRINKS.
LEAVE ME ALONE.
MIKE, HE'S HELPED ME
A LOT,
AND I WISH YOU WOULD
COME WITH ME
TO SEE HIM.
ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT.
I'M UP.
OK. GET UP. IT'S
A QUARTER TO 9:00.
WE GOT TO GO.
I'M UP!
WHAT TIME IS IT?
QUARTER TO 9:00.
[MUMBLING]
OH, WALKER.
IMPECCABLE TIMING.
THIS IS MARTIN ERLICH
OF THE A.C.L.U.
HE WANTS TO HAVE
A WORD WITH YOU.
I'LL HAVE TO CHECK
MY CALENDAR.
HOW ABOUT RIGHT NOW,
DETECTIVE?
I DON'T HAVE THE TIME.
UH, CAPTAIN,
CAN I SPEAK TO YOU
A SECOND?
CAPTAIN BROOKS,
THIS IS EXACTLY
THE KIND OF INSOLENCE
AND LACK OF RESPECT
FOR THE A.C.L.U.
THAT CASTS A BLACK CLOUD
OVER THIS DEPARTMENT.
IF YOU DON'T MIND,
I'VE GOT A PARTNER
FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE
OVER AT COUNTY.
SO, EXCUSE ME VERY MUCH
IF I DON'T HAVE
THE INCLINATION
TO DISCUSS THE SIXTH
AMENDMENT WITH YOU.
LET ME CHECK
ON MY OFFICER
AT THE HOSPITAL,
I PROMISE
HE'LL CALL YOU,
MARTIN.
I KNOW YOU'RE HURTING
ABOUT GIBBY,
BUT CUTTING NEW ASSHOLES
WITH THE A.C.L.U. GUYS
IS NOT EXACTLY
IN THE BEST INTEREST OF
THE DEPARTMENT NOWADAYS.
I'M SORRY, CAPTAIN.
YOU KNOW, THE LAST THING
I NEEDED THIS MORNING
WAS SOME WEASEL IN MY FACE,
LECTURING ME
ABOUT THE RIGHTS
OF PSYCHO KILLERS.
MAYBE HE'S HAVING
A FIELD DAY
WITH THIS MADDOX FIASCO.
EVERY OTHER DAY,
SOME PERP
IS ON THE TUBE,
MAKING A CASE
FOR POLICE BRUTALITY.
ALL I KNOW IS GIBBY'S
ON LIFE SUPPORT.
HIS WIFE IS WORRIED
ABOUT HER NEXT DIME.
WHAT'S THIS?
GIBBY'S DISABILITY PAPERS.
I'D APPRECIATE
YOUR PROCESSING THEM
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
HIS NAME IS YARNELL.
HE'S WITH VICE.
MIKE YARNELL?
YOU KNOW HIM?
WE PARTNERED
OUT OF THE ACADEMY.
GOOD COP.
HE WAS INVOLVED
IN A SHOOTING
THE OTHER NIGHT.
REVIEW BOARD BUMPED
HIM OVER TO US.
REPORT SAYS HERE
THAT THE SUSPECT HAD
A STRAIGHT RAZOR.
YEAH. FAMILY MAN.
FATHER OF 6.
NO PRIORS. HIS WIFE
GOT YOUR FRIEND
THE A.C.L.U.
INVOLVED.
THIS LOOKS
OPEN AND SHUT TO ME.
WELL, WALK IT THROUGH,
JUST THE SAME,
AND CLOSE IT
BY THE BOOK.
TAKE CARE OF THOSE
FOR ME?
I WILL.
THANKS.
WHY ARE YOU
ASKING ME
ALL THE QUESTIONS?
DID YOU FORGET
THAT SHE'S THE ONE
WITH THE PROBLEM?
HOW YOU FEEL
ABOUT IT
HAS A LOT TO DO
WITH OUR FINDING
A SOLUTION.
AH. HEH.
WELL, HOW DO YOU THINK
I FEEL ABOUT IT?
I MEAN--I MEAN,
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL
ABOUT IT?
MIKE, NOBODY'S
BLAMING YOU.
NOT MELISSA,
NOT ME.
THEN, WHY AM I CATCHING
ALL THE FLAK?
I MEAN, YOU REALLY
WANT MY OPINION?
HUH? I THINK IT HAS
TO DO WITH HER FATHER.
HE PASSED AWAY 2 WEEKS AGO,
AND EVER SINCE THEN,
IT'S LIKE COMING HOME
TO SYBIL.
AND I DON'T KNOW
WHO THE HELL'S
GOING TO BE THERE.
MELISSA,
AT OUR LAST SESSION,
YOU BEGAN TO TELL ME
ABOUT THE DEATH
OF YOUR FATHER.
THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH MY FATHER.
WELL, THEN WHAT?
MIKE, PLEASE.
THEN WHAT?
MELISSA, GO AHEAD.
STATE IT
AT YOUR OWN PACE.
IT HAS TO DO
WITH MY BROTHER.
WE HAD PROBLEMS
SINCE WE WERE KIDS.
AFTER MY FATHER
GOT SICK,
MY BROTHER
FARRELL...
HE CAME BACK TO...
TO TAKE CARE
OF BUSINESS,
AND TO TAKE CARE
OF MY DAD.
MY FATHER OWNED
A NIGHT CLUB BAR.
ANYWAY...
[SIGHS]
FARRELL CAME BACK.
AND I HAD GOTTEN
HIM OUT OF MY MIND,
THROUGH ALL THESE YEARS.
AND NOW HE'S BACK.
HE'S BACK HERE
IN THE SAME CITY.
AND EVERY TIME
THE PHONE RINGS,
OR THERE'S A KNOCK
AT THE DOOR...
I LOSE IT.
I JUST WANT HIM
OUT OF MY LIFE.
WHY DIDN'T YOU
EVER TELL ME
ABOUT THIS, MELISSA?
WELL, WHAT THE HELL'S
GOING ON BETWEEN YOU
AND YOUR BROTHER?
NOTHING.
CHRIST. IT'S GOT
TO BE SOMETHING.
DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND,
MIKE?
NO.
I JUST WANT
TO FORGET IT.
FORGET WHAT?
WHAT'S THE SOURCE
OF YOUR PROBLEM
WITH YOUR BROTHER?
I CAN'T TELL YOU.
PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME
TELL YOU.
MELISSA...
YOU CALLED ME.
NOW, WHY DID YOU
MAKE THE CALL,
UNLESS YOU WANTED
TO TELL SOMEONE?
BECAUSE HE
MADE ME DO IT.
DO WHAT?
HE--
HE WOULD SNEAK
INTO MY ROOM
ALMOST EVERY NIGHT.
I WOULDN'T
LOOK AT HIM.
I COULDN'T.
HIS HANDS...
HIS HANDS WERE
ALWAYS SWEATY.
HOT.
AND HE HAD
THIS SMELL.
THEN HE MADE ME
DO THESE THINGS.
THESE HORRIBLE...
DIRTY...THINGS.
MELISSA, HOW COME
YOU NEVER TOLD ME
ABOUT THIS?
HOW COME?
HOW COME?
MIKE, WHAT COULD YOU
HAVE DONE?
WHAT COULD YOU
HAVE DONE?
BILL TANNER?
MATT WALKER.
PLEASE SIT DOWN.
HOW'S YOUR HAND?
I GOT 88 STITCHES
HOLDING IT TOGETHER.
OTHER THAN THAT,
IT'S FINE.
SO, WHY IS I.A.D.
SO INTERESTED
IN WHAT HAPPENED
THE OTHER NIGHT?
IT'S ROUTINE.
JUST PROCEDURE.
NOBODY'S INTERESTED
IN HURTING A GOOD COP
DOING HIS JOB.
THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW.
TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED
TUESDAY NIGHT.
IT'S ALL THERE
IN THE REPORT.
DIDN'T YOU READ IT?
LOOK, BILL...
YOU KNOW
THE DEPARTMENT IS UNDER
THE MICROSCOPE LATELY
ABOUT THIS
EXCESSIVE FORCE.
WE GOT TO GO
BY THE BOOK,
SO I'D APPRECIATE
THE HELP.
GO AHEAD.
IT'S VERY SIMPLE.
I WENT TO CUFF
THE SON OF A BITCH.
HE COMES AFTER ME
WITH A RAZOR.
YARNELL SHOOTS HIM.
THAT'S IT.
HOW LONG HAVE
YOU AND YARNELL
BEEN PARTNERS?
JEEZ, I DON'T KNOW.
WHAT? 5 YEARS?
HE HAS THREE 181s
IN THE PAST 18 MONTHS,
AND YOU BACKED HIM UP
EVERY TIME.
WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING?
THAT I LIED
ON THE REPORT?
DOES THIS LOOK
LIKE I'M LYING?
I'M NOT IMPLYING
ANYTHING.
I'M INTERESTED
IN THE MENTAL CONDITION
OF YOUR PARTNER.
THERE'S NOTHING WRONG
WITH THE MENTAL
CONDITION OF MY PARTNER.
HE HAS A HISTORY
OF USING EXCESSIVE FORCE.
EXCESSIVE FORCE.
YOU KNOW,
THEY JUMP ON US
FOR THE SLIGHTEST
AMOUNT OF BULLSHIT.
WE'RE OUT THERE
EVERY NIGHT,
DEALING WITH THESE
FUCKING ANIMALS.
WHEN A COP TRIES
TO PROTECT HIMSELF,
NOBODY WANTS
TO HEAR ABOUT IT.
WHO DO WE GO TO
WHEN WE HAVE A PROBLEM?
WHEN YOU'RE BETWEEN
A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE...
A COP ONLY HAS
HIS PARTNER
TO DEPEND ON.
THAT'S RIGHT.
YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE
YOU'D LIKE TO ADD?
I THINK I SAID
EVERYTHING.
THANKS.
THANK YOU.
DON'T.
WHAT EXACTLY DID
THAT SON OF A BITCH
DO TO YOU, ANYWAY?
WHY DO YOU
WANT TO KNOW?
BECAUSE IT'S TEARING US
APART, THAT'S WHY.
I'M SORRY I EVER
BROUGHT IT UP.
HOW COME YOU NEVER
TALKED TO ME ABOUT IT?
WHAT COULD YOU CHANGE
NOW, MIKE?
WHAT COULD YOU
DO ABOUT IT?
MRS. YARNELL?
YES.
MATT WALKER. I.A.D.
I'D LIKE TO SPEAK
WITH YOUR HUSBAND.
IS HE EXPECTING YOU?
NOT EXACTLY.
WELL,
HE'S STILL SLEEPING.
IT'S IMPORTANT,
MA'AM.
I DON'T REALLY FEEL
COMFORTABLE ABOUT
WAKING HIM UP RIGHT NOW.
HE'S REALLY TIRED.
YEAH.
SOMETHING I CAN
HELP YOU WITH?
HOW YOU DOING, MIKE?
OH, SHIT.
DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE
THE SAME WALKER
WITH I.A.D.
BEEN A LONG TIME.
YEAH.
HONEY, MATT AND ME--
WE USED TO WORK TOGETHER
WHEN WE WERE HOT SHOTS
OUT OF THE ACADEMY.
REALLY?
YEAH.
HE'S COME A LONG WAY.
MADE HIS STRIPES
CRAWLING UP
OTHER COPS' ASSES.
AIN'T THAT RIGHT,
MATT?
I DIDN'T DRIVE
ALL THE WAY OUT HERE
TO GIVE YOU GRIEF,
SO LIGHTEN UP,
ALL RIGHT?
I TAKE A FEW
DAYS OFF SICK,
I.A.D. SHOWS UP
ON MY FUCKING DOORSTEP?
HOW AM I SUPPOSED
TO FEEL?
NOBODY AT I.A.D.
WANTS TO HURT YOU.
I JUST WANT TO SPEND
A FEW MINUTES
WITH YOU,
ASK YOU
SOME QUESTIONS.
EVERYTHING I HAD TO SAY
WAS IN MY REPORT.
TANNER'LL
BACK ME UP 100%.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
TANNER BACKS YOU UP.
BUT WE NEED TO HEAR
YOUR VERSION
OF WHAT HAPPENED.
CLOSE THIS OUT.
YOU WANT TO TALK
TO ME?
YOU DO IT TO ME
WHEN I'M ON THE CLOCK,
NOT IN MY HOME.
YOU'RE AGGRAVATING
A SIMPLE PROCEDURAL
MATTER, MIKE.
MIKE, I THINK
YOU SHOULD TALK TO HIM.
GET IN THE HOUSE.
HONEY, HE'S RIGHT.
JUST GET
IN THE HOUSE!
OK.
ONLY TRYING TO HELP.
YEAH, RIGHT.
WE KNOW THIS GUY
YARNELL?
P.A.: DR. DAVIS,
TELEPHONE.
WELL, HE'S, UH...
HE WORKS
HOLLYWOOD VICE.
AND WE CAUGHT
HIS PACKAGE THE DAY
AFTER YOU WENT DOWN.
HE AND HIS PARTNER,
THEY WERE INVOLVED
IN A...
SHOOTING
OF A RAPE PERP.
HE HAD A RAZOR.
POOR FUCKING PERP.
PERP'S WIFE GOT
THE A.C.L.U. INVOLVED.
CLAIMS EXCESSIVE FORCE.
YOU KNOW. THAT BULLSHIT.
ANYWAY, THE ISSUING
TEAM KICKED THE BALL
DOWN TO US.
I CHECK IT OUT.
YARNELL'S GOT 3 PRIOR 181s.
HE'S NOT COOPERATING.
WHAT ABOUT
THE PARTNER?
HE TOOK 88 STITCHES
FROM THE RAZOR.
WHEW.
SOUNDS PRETTY
OPEN AND SHUT TO ME.
THIS GUY YARNELL
MAYBE HAVE A HARD-ON
FOR YOU FOR SOME REASON?
NO. BUT HE'S GOT
A HARD-ON FOR ANYONE
CONNECTED WITH I.A.D.
YOU KNOW HOW THAT IS.
HE'S A GOOD COP, GIB.
HE'S HURTING.
AND THAT'S
A CRASH AND BURN
IN THE MAKING,
UNLESS HE GETS
SOME HELP.
WHY DON'T YOU
RECOMMEND IT?
HEY...
IF COPS DON'T HELP COPS,
WHO THE HELL
ELSE WILL?
YOU TOOK THE WORDS
RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH,
GIBBY.
JUST TAKE IT EASY,
WILL YOU?
THIS GUY'S RUINING
MY LIFE.
YOU WANT ME
TO TAKE IT EASY?
COME BACK AT 7:00.
WE'RE CLOSED.
WE'RE LOOKING
FOR FARRELL.
I'M FARRELL. WHAT CAN
I DO FOR YOU?
CLASSY LITTLE PLACE.
ALL EXCEPT FOR
THE PIECE OF SHIT
WHO OWNS IT.
WHY DON'T YOU GUYS
TAKE OFF AND LET ME
GET BACK TO WORK?
YOU KNOW,
IT MAKES ME SICK
JUST BEING IN HERE
WITH YOU?
GET THE FUCK
OUT OF HERE.
I'M CALLING
THE COPS.
WE ARE THE COPS.
YOU'RE MELISSA'S
HUSBAND.
THAT'S RIGHT.
SHE TOLD ME
ALL ABOUT YOU, TOO.
OH, YEAH?
WELL, GET THE FUCK
OUT OF HERE.
HEY. NOW, YOU KEEP
THAT HORSE COCK
OUT OF MY FACE.
I SAID GET OUT
OF HERE!
DON'T! DON'T.
DON'T PROVOKE ME.
COME HERE!
COME HERE!
YOU'RE GOING
TO CLOSE DOWN,
AND STAY THE FUCK
OUT OF MY LIFE!
YOU HEAR ME?
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
YOU UNDERSTAND THAT.
YOU LISTENING TO ME?
LET ME SHOW YOU,
YOU SON OF A BITCH!
YOU REALIZE
WHAT YOU DID TO ME?
DO YOU HEAR ME?
I JUST WANT
TO MAKE SURE
HE DOESN'T--
I KNOW. I'M ASKING.
THAT'S ALL.
YOU GODDAMNED
NASTY CREEP!
I'M ALL RIGHT!
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?
I'M ALL RIGHT!
YOU SON OF A BITCH!
I WANT YOU
OUT OF HERE!
DROP THAT GUN!
WHAT? ARE YOU GOING
TO SHOOT ME?
WHATEVER
MELISSA TOLD YOU,
SHE'S LYING.
DROP IT!
YOU AIN'T GOT THE BALLS
TO SHOOT A COP.
DON'T MAKE ME
DO THIS.
DROP THAT FUCKING GUN!
LOOK AT YOU.
YOU'RE SHAKING
ALL OVER.
YOU CAN'T
COME IN HERE
AND HASSLE ME.
AND THEY'LL
TAKE AWAY YOUR BADGE.
MY BADGE?
YOU MOTHER--
[GUNSHOT]
[GROANING]
OH, SHIT. SHIT.
[RASPING]
BILL...
OH, SHIT.
BILL...
BILL, HE SHOT HIMSELF.
HE SHOT HIMSELF!
YOU HEAR ME?
HE SHOT HIMSELF!
CAPTAIN...
I RECOMMEND
THAT WE PUT YARNELL
THROUGH A SERIES OF
PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING.
A GOOD COP.
HE DESERVES HELP.
YOU'RE GOING TO NEED
A LOT OF HELP.
HE JUST KILLED A GUY.
AND CATCH THIS.
THE VICTIM WAS
HIS WIFE'S BROTHER.
[CRYING] GOD.
[MOANS]
JUST GET HOME?
MELISSA, I HAVE
TO TELL YOU SOMETHING.
MMM.
WHAT TIME DID YOU
GET OFF WORK?
THAT TURD FARRELL--
HE'S DEAD.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
I JUST WENT THERE
TO TALK TO HIM.
HE PULLED OUT A GUN,
AND WHEN I WENT
TO TAKE IT AWAY...
HE'S DEAD?
I SWEAR TO GOD
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT,
MELISSA.
I JUST WENT THERE
TO SCARE HIM,
SO HE'D STOP
HASSLING YOU.
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
BELIEVE ME,
MELISSA, PLEASE.
NO.
PLEASE DON'T HATE ME.
NO.
[SOBBING]
YOU'RE ALL I GOT LEFT
IN THIS WORLD.
I NEED YOU.
TOUCH ME.
BE WITH ME.
BE WITH ME.
YOU HATE ME.
THIS IS BULLSHIT,
CAPTAIN.
YOU TAKE AWAY MY BADGE,
YOU MAKE ME LOOK GUILTY.
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE,
YOUR HOME WILL BE
YOUR REGULAR DUTY
ASSIGNMENT,
DURING YOUR REGULARLY
SCHEDULED WATCHES.
EACH DAY, YOU WILL STAY
IN CONTACT WITH
YOUR WATCH COMMANDER,
AND INFORM HIM OF
ANY CHANGE IN LOCATION,
DUE TO OFFICIAL
BUSINESS.
HEH.
LIKE THE SHRINK?
YEAH.
STANDARD DEPARTMENTAL
PROCEDURE.
YEAH, WELL,
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY
RIGHT BEFORE
THEY NAIL YOUR ASS
TO THE WALL, CAPTAIN.
WHAT THE HELL'S
GOING ON?
WHAT'S HE DOING
AT MY DESK?
HEY!
NO. I'M ALL RIGHT.
I'M ALL RIGHT.
YOU HAVING FUN
RUINING MY LIFE?
YOU TOOK MY GUN.
YOU TOOK MY BADGE.
COOL IT DOWN,
MIKE, OK?
MAYBE YOU WANT
MY DESK, HUH?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
MIKE, MIKE!
HERE, TAKE MY...
MIKE! MIKE!
COME ON, MIKE!
YOU'RE DEAD!
YOU'RE DEAD!
YOU'RE DEAD!
MIKE, YOU NEED
HELP, MIKE!
YOU NEED
FUCKING HELP.
Minister: THROUGH
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST,
WE COMMEND
TO ALMIGHTY GOD
OUR BROTHER
FARRELL LERNOUX.
AND WE COMMIT HIS BODY
TO THE GROUND.
EARTH TO EARTH.
ASHES TO ASHES.
DUST TO DUST.
THE LORD BLESS HIM
AND KEEP HIM.
THE LORD MAKE HIS FACE
TO SHINE UPON HIM,
AND BE GRACIOUS
UNTO HIM.
THE LORD LIFT UP
HIS COUNTENANCE UPON HIM,
AND GIVE HIM PEACE.
AMEN.
All: AMEN.
THE LORD BE WITH YOU.
WITH THY SPIRIT,
LET US PRAY.
Woman: BEAUTIFUL
SERVICE, FATHER.
Man: THANK YOU, FATHER.
THAT WAS VERY NICE.
YOU GOT SOME NERVE
SHOWING UP HERE TO HARASS ME.
Mike: YOU JUST REMEMBER
WHAT I SAID, WALKER, HUH?
[IMITATES GUNSHOT]
I WAS JUST
SAYING HELLO.
[ENGINE STARTS]
Gibson: ALL RIGHT. GIVE ME
CHAPTER AND VERSE.
WE TOOK AWAY
HIS GUN, HIS SHIELD,
PUT HIM
ON SUSPENSION.
THAT DOESN'T
TAKE CARE OF THE
DOMESTIC SITUATION.
I'LL BET
EVEN MONEY HE TAKES
IT OUT ON HIS WIFE.
HEY, YOU'VE DONE YOUR JOB.
LEAVE IT ALONE NOW.
I DON'T KNOW. LOOK,
THIS GUY YARNELL,
BROTHER IN BLUE,
HE'S LOOKING
AT MURDER ONE.
HEY, YOU CAN'T
BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR EVERY BADGE
IN THE DEPARTMENT.
I'M NOT TALKING BADGE.
I'M TALKING
HUMAN BEING, GIB.
[SIGHS]
EXCUSE ME.
HI.
SORRY I'M LATE.
I WAS AT THE D.A.'s OFFICE.
NO. NO, PLEASE,
I'M JUST GRATEFUL
THAT YOU COULD COME.
I DIDN'T REALLY
KNOW WHO TO CALL.
I COULDN'T
CALL TANNER.
I REALIZE
HOW DIFFICULT IT IS
FOR A COP'S WIFE
TO REACH OUT.
[SCOFFS]
YEAH. HOW DOES
YOUR WIFE HANDLE IT?
SHE DIDN'T.
I'M SORRY.
SO AM I,
AND SHE'S A LOT
HAPPIER WITHOUT ME.
MRS. YARNELL...
YOUR HUSBAND'S A GOOD COP.
HE JUST CLOCKED
A FEW TOO MANY HOURS
OUT THERE
IN JUNGLE LAND,
AND HE NEEDS HELP.
YEAH.
IT'S BEEN REALLY
DIFFICULT THIS
PAST YEAR WITH HIM.
HEY, WOULD YOU
LIKE A DRINK?
NO, I DON'T DRINK.
LOOK, I'M REALLY SORRY.
I'M USUALLY
NOT LIKE THIS.
IT'S JUST...
[SIGHS]
UM...
LOOK, I'M A GOOD LISTENER.
HMM?
YOU'VE GOT
SUCH PATIENCE.
YOUR KIDS
MUST LOVE YOU.
ONE.
SHE'S ALREADY
WAY BEYOND ME.
IN WHAT WAY?
IN WHAT WAY?
WELL, SHE...
SHE'S NOT AFRAID
OF NEW EXPERIENCES.
SHE LIKES PEOPLE,
SHE TRUSTS THEM.
AND YOU DON'T
TRUST PEOPLE?
IT'S NOT THAT.
IT'S JUST BEING A COP...
MY WIFE...
[CHUCKLES]
IT'S A BIT CYNICAL.
I'M NOT HERE
TO TALK ABOUT ME.
HOW CAN--WHAT CAN I DO?
HOW CAN I HELP YOU?
WELL, I, UM...
I FINALLY GOT
MIKE TO COME TO SEE
A THERAPIST WITH ME.
THAT'S GOOD.
YEAH, AND THEN
THIS THING WITH MY
BROTHER HAPPENED.
[SIGHING]
IS THERE ANY INFORMATION
YOU CAN TELL US THAT--
THAT MAY HELP UNDERSTAND
WHAT PROVOKED
YOUR BROTHER AND MIKE?
YEAH. MY BROTHER
WAS DISTURBED.
AND I'M SURE HE
JUST PUSHED MIKE...
A LITTLE BIT
TOO FAR.
WHAT WAS...
CAN YOU TELL ME THE NAME
OF THE THERAPIST?
UM...
YEAH.
DR. EUGENE HALPERIN.
WHERE IS HE LOCATED?
HE'S IN BEVERLY HILLS.
I REALIZE
THE DIFFICULT POSITION
YOU'RE IN RIGHT NOW.
LOOK, UH...
YOU CAN...
THERE'S A NUMBER ON THERE.
YOU CAN REACH
ME ANYTIME, DAY OR NIGHT,
IF YOU NEED HELP,
OR ANY QUESTIONS, ANYTHING.
OK.
THANKS.
WELL, GIVEN WHAT LITTLE
I'VE SEEN OF HER HUSBAND
I CAN WELL UNDERSTAND
WHY SHE'S CONCERNED.
GIVEN THAT,
I'M SORRY. I'M...
I DON'T THINK
I CAN BE OF MUCH HELP.
WELL, DOC, CAN YOU
TELL ME HOW MAYBE
HER BROTHER FITS
INTO THE SCENARIO.
AGAIN, I'M SORRY.
THAT WOULD
BE A VIOLATION
OF DOCTOR/PATIENT
CONFIDENTIALITY.
YOU KNOW, DOC,
UNDER CALIFORNIA LAW,
THERE ARE LIMITS
TO DOCTOR/PATIENT
CONFIDENTIALITY.
I'M WELL AWARE OF
THE LAW, LIEUTENANT,
AND BELIEVE ME, IF
AN OVERT THREAT HAD BEEN
MADE IN MY PRESENCE,
I WOULD'VE
FOLLOWED THE LAW.
[SIGHS]
YOU KNOW, GIB...
SOMETIMES I FEEL...
LIFE IS LIKE...
WINNING
THE LOTTERY WHERE...
THE JACKPOT
IS A ONE-WAY TICKET
DOWN
THE HERSHEY TRAIL.
I KNOW YOU, WALKER.
YOU'RE THE KIND OF COP
WHO PULLS LONG HOURS
SO HE DON'T HAVE
TO GO HOME AT NIGHT.
WHEN YOU DO GO HOME,
THERE'S NOTHING THERE
EXCEPT CHICKEN POT PIES
AND LATE-NIGHT MOVIES.
YOU SLEEP
WITH THE LIGHTS ON,
YOU CAN'T WAIT
TILL MORNING ROLLS AROUND.
THAT WAY YOU DON'T
HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF,
IS THIS WHAT IT
ALL COMES DOWN TO?
WHERE'D I MISS OUT?
WHERE'D I MAKE A WRONG TURN?
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING
TO TELL ME?
I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU WHAT
ANY COP WOULD TELL YOU.
YOU GET INVOLVED
IN A DOMESTIC SITUATION,
YOU END UP WITH YOUR BALLS
ROLLED UP REAL TIGHT.
[RAIN FALLING]
[DOOR CLOSES]
[DOOR CLOSES]
OHH.
DAMN IT.
I GOTTA REMEMBER TO ASK HER
WHERE SHE GOT THOSE SHOES.
[SIGHS]
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
Melissa: OUT.
OUT!
THAT'S A GOOD
ANSWER, MELISSA.
LOOK AT ME WHEN
I'M TALKING TO YOU.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOUT,
MIKE. I CAN HEAR YOU FINE.
ALL RIGHT. I WON'T.
JUST TELL ME
WHERE YOU'VE BEEN.
I WANT TO KNOW.
I WANT TO KNOW!
DON'T WALK AWAY. HEY!
I'VE BEEN GOING
THROUGH A LOT OF SHIT
BECAUSE OF YOU!
LET GO OF ME!
I'M MORTGAGED
TO THE HILT
SO YOU CAN
PLAY DRESS UP?
I DON'T THINK SO.
THE LEAST YOU CAN DO
FOR ME IS BE HERE
WHEN I GET HOME.
COME ON. BE MY BABY.
AAH! DON'T!
WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM,
MELISSA? HUH?
LET ME GO, MIKE!
WHO WILL I HAVE
TO FIX THIS TIME?!
WHERE THE HELL ARE
YOU GOING TO GO? WHERE?
DON'T TOUCH ME, MIKE!
DON'T YOU TOUCH ME!
DON'T YOU
LOCK ME OUT!
GET AWAY!
OPEN THIS DOOR!
STAY AWAY!
OPEN IT!
STAY AWAY!
I'M CALLING THE POLICE.
AH!
[TELEPHONE DINGS]
AAH!
YOU'VE BEEN
SEEING SOMEBODY
ON THE SIDE,
HAVEN'T YOU?
LET ME GO!
DON'T LIE!
YOU WERE FUCKING AROUND
BEHIND MY BACK, RIGHT?
YOU PATHETIC BASTARD,
LET ME GO!
DON'T LIE!
ALL RIGHT! YES!
I'VE BEEN FUCKING
TANNER, DR. HALPERIN.
NEXT THING YOU'LL
THINK I'M GOING TO DO
IS FUCK THAT I.A.D. GUY.
WHAT'S HIS NAME?!
SHUT UP!
[CAR DOOR OPENS
AND CLOSES]
LIEUTENANT WALKER!
I DIDN'T KNOW
WHERE ELSE TO GO.
LET'S AT LEAST GET YOU
IN OUT OF THE RAIN.
[THUNDER]
[GASPS]
SORRY.
LET ME GET YOU SOMETHING
FOR THOSE SCRATCHES.
DO YOU WANT ME
TO COME WITH YOU?
UM...YEAH.
IT'LL BE...EASIER.
[THUNDER]
[SNIFFLES]
CHRIST...
HE REALLY
WENT AT YOU.
YEAH.
BUT HE'S DONE WORSE.
THIS IS GOING TO...
MAYBE STING
JUST A LITTLE BIT.
OK.
EHH.
[SOBS QUIETLY]
[THUNDER]
EHH. [SOBS]
SORRY.
IT'S OK.
IT'S OK.
[SNIFFLES]
IT'S BETTER TO...
PUT A LITTLE BIT
THERE BECAUSE...
THESE THINGS
ARE DECEIVING.
UH...
NEED ANOTHER...
PAD.
EHH.
SORRY.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
IT'S A...
I BETTER GET THAT.
CAN YOU HOLD THIS?
[RING]
PLEASE?
[THUNDER]
[RING]
Matt: HELLO?
I UNDERSTAND
THAT, JOANNE,
BUT IT'S NOT THAT EASY.
I'M NOT
BEING INFLEXIBLE.
I JUST...
[THUNDER]
MM-HMM.
YEAH.
WELL, I'VE ALREADY GOT
OUR PLANE TICKETS, OK?
I PUT THEM
ON THE CREDIT CARD.
I'VE GOT
THE TIME BLOCKED OFF.
NO.
I SEE
YOUR POINT OF VIEW,
BUT WHY DO I HAVE
TO SEE MY DAUGHTER
WHEN IT'S ONLY
CONVENIENT FOR YOU?
Mike: HUH? UH...
I'M LISTENING.
[THUNDER]
Mike: LOOK, UH...
Mike: YEAH.
Mike: HUH?
LOOK...
WHY DON'T I JUST--
I'LL CALL YOU TOMORROW.
WE'LL DISCUSS IT,
AND WE'LL
WORK SOMETHING OUT.
YEAH.
OK.
CAN I SPEAK TO HER?
YEAH, I JUST WANT
TO SAY GOOD NIGHT.
NO, I'M NOT GOING
TO START ANYTHING.
I JUST WANT
TO TALK TO HER.
Mike: HI, ANGEL FACE.
NO, WE'RE GOING
TO WORK IT OUT.
OK? AND I'LL SEE YOU
AND WE'LL GO
AND WE'LL...
YEAH.
DISNEYLAND AND...
OK.
I LOVE YOU, TOO, SWEETIE.
DON'T LET THE BED BUGS BITE.
GOOD NIGHT.
HOW OLD'S
YOUR LITTLE GIRL?
Mike: 6.
UM...
I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND
THAT I PUT YOUR SHIRT ON.
I WAS KIND OF FREEZING
IN MY DRESS.
SHIT.
SORRY. I'M NOT THINKING.
I'LL GET YOU A BLANKET.
[FLOOR CREAKING]
[THUNDER]
YOU'RE VERY SWEET.
GOOD NIGHT.
CAN I GET YOU SOME
COFFEE OR, UH, TEA?
UM...YEAH.
SOME COFFEE.
A LITTLE MILK
AND ONE SUGAR.
[THUNDER]
[COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING]
I FOUND HIM SITTING
IN THE DARK WHEN I GOT HOME.
SAW THAT HE WAS DRUNK.
WHEN HE GETS LIKE THAT,
HE ACCUSES ME
OF THE UGLIEST THINGS.
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN SAY.
[SIGHS]
THERE'S DIRTY PICTURES
OF ME IN HIS MIND, AND HE...
I BEG HIM TO STOP, BUT...
HE'S OUT OF CONTROL.
AND I RAN OUT...
RAN OUT OF MY OWN HOUSE.
Melissa:
HI. YOU'VE REACHED
THE YARNELL RESIDENCE.
NEITHER MIKE
NOR MELISSA ARE HOME.
PLEASE LEAVE
A MESSAGE. [BEEP]
[COUNTRY MUSIC
PLAYING THROUGHOUT]
WATCH IT.
ONE MORE.
WHY DON'T YOU HANG
IT UP, PAL, HUH?
I'M CUTTING YOU OFF.
DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?
YEAH. YOU'RE
FUCKING GONE.
HEY.
BULLSHIT.
YOU FUCKING CRAZY?
I'M CLOSING YOU DOWN.
[OVERLAPPING SHOUTING]
UHH!
[GRUNTING]
AH!
STAY DOWN, OK, PAL?
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE A REAL
FUCKING ASSHOLE.
OH!
AAH!
OH!
♪ I SAY YOU CAN TAKE THE BOY
OUT OF THE COUNTRY ♪
♪ BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE THE COUNTRY
OUT OF THE BOY ♪
GET OUT. I'M GETTING
DRUNK JUST SMELLING YOU.
LOOK AT YOU.
YOU'RE A MESS.
I THINK I'M
LOSING HER, BILL.
EVERY TIME I TRY
TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT,
I JUST KEEP PUSHING
HER FURTHER AWAY.
I JUST KEEP FUCKING UP.
I THINK SHE'S UP
TO SOMETHING.
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
SHE SCREWING SOMEBODY?
LISTEN TO YOURSELF.
YOU'RE PARANOID.
YOU BETTER
JUST CALM DOWN.
CALM DOWN?
YEAH, CALM DOWN!
BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN.
YOU CAN'T GO ON
LIKE THIS.
DRINKING AND ACTING
LIKE A MADMAN.
YOU CAN'T DO THIS, MIKE.
YOU CAN'T DO IT.
YOU BETTER GO INSIDE,
TELL HER YOU'RE SORRY,
AND STRAIGHTEN
THIS THING OUT.
YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
GO ON.
MELI--
HI.
LOOK, I'M A REAL SHIT.
I KNOW IT.
I NEVER SHOULD'VE
SAID THOSE THINGS TO YOU.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
YEAH, BUT WHEN
YOU SAID THOSE THINGS
TO ME, I WENT CRAZY.
LISTEN, I CALLED ALL OVER
THE PLACE FOR YOU LAST NIGHT,
WHERE THE HELL
DID YOU GO?
I STAYED WITH A FRIEND.
WHO?
MIKE, DON'T START
IN ON ME AGAIN.
ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT!
HOW DID YOU GET
THESE SCRATCHES?
DON'T TOUCH ME!
YOU DON'T REMEMBER?
HOW COULD YOU REMEMBER?
YOU WERE DRUNK!
LOOK, I SAID I WAS...
[SOBBING]
I'M SORRY. LOOK...
[SIGHS]
I'LL DO ANYTHING.
GO SLEEP IT OFF
ON THE COUCH.
I JUST GOT A CALL FROM A PAL
OF MINE AT THE D.A.'s OFFICE.
THEY'RE SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING
CHARGING YOUR FRIEND YARNELL
WITH MURDER ONE.
THAT'S BULLSHIT.
WHAT DO THEY HAVE
THAT WE COULDN'T FIND?
JUST A LITTLE THING
CALLED THE TRUTH.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
WALKER.
YEAH, HANG ON
JUST A SECOND.
PLEASE.
TAKE A WALK, POINDEXTER.
WHAT'S WRONG?
ALL RIGHT, SLOW DOWN.
JUST...
DON'T WORRY. JUST
TELL ME WHERE AND WHEN,
AND I'LL BE THERE.
SORRY TO BARGE INTO
YOUR LIFE AGAIN.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
ARE YOU OK?
NO, I'M NOT OK.
I FEEL LIKE I'M STUCK
IN SOMEONE ELSE'S
NIGHTMARE.
[SIGHING]
[THUNDER]
I'M LEAVING HIM.
I'M LEAVING MIKE.
I JUST CAN'T TAKE
ANOTHER DAY OF IT.
WELL, YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO, AND...
YOU KNOW WHAT'S
INSIDE YOUR HEART.
WHY CAN'T I HAVE
A SIMPLE LIFE?
YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY
FOR SOMEBODY ELSE'S SINS.
I KNOW,
BUT I FEEL GUILTY.
I FEEL GUILTY BECAUSE
I CAN'T GET YOU
OUT OF MY MIND.
I CAN'T.
[SIGHS]
IS THAT WRONG?
[DOORBELL RINGS]
[DOORBELL RINGS]
YEAH?
UH, IS MELISSA HERE?
YEAH, SURE, COME ON IN.
UH, WHY DON'T YOU
JUST GO AHEAD AND WAIT
IN THE LIVING ROOM?
I'LL TELL HER YOU'RE HERE.
SURE.
MELISSA?
MELISSA?
I WAS WRONG.
SHE'S NOT HERE.
I'M SORRY.
WELL, WILL TELL HER THAT
CHARLENE LERNOUX IS TRYING
TO GET IN TOUCH WITH HER?
LERNOUX?
I'M MELISSA'S
EX-SISTER-IN-LAW.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
SISTER-IN-LAW?
I WAS MARRIED TO FARRELL.
5 YEARS I'VE BEEN
MARRIED TO MELISSA...
AND NEVER ONCE DID SHE MENTION
TO ME SHE HAD A SISTER-IN-LAW.
I CAN BELIEVE THAT.
WHEN I WAS MARRIED
TO FARRELL, SHE
JUST IGNORED ME.
I THINK IT WAS HER WAY
OF GETTING BACK AT HIM.
HEH.
AFTER WHAT THAT PERVERT
DID TO HER,
CAN YOU BLAME HER?
WHAT DID HE DO TO HER?
WELL, IT SEEMS THAT WHEN
THEY WERE GROWING UP,
UH, HE USED TO MOLEST HER.
[CHUCKLES]
WHAT, THIS IS FUNNY?
OH, THAT'S
THE BEST ONE YET.
WHAT, YOU THINK
I'M KIDDING?
MELISSA WAS ALWAYS
TELLING LIES ON FARRELL.
AND SHE WAS
ALWAYS GETTING CAUGHT
IN THEM, TOO.
I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.
MELISSA HATED FARRELL.
SO WHAT? SHE HATED HIM.
BIG DEAL!
I'M NOT HERE TO
CAUSE ANY TROUBLE.
GOOD.
ALL I WANT IS MY SHARE
OF THE MONEY.
MONEY? WHAT MONEY?
DIDN'T MELISSA TELL YOU?
SHE OWNS THE BAR NOW.
THAT WAS HER BROTHER'S BAR.
THAT'S NOT MELISSA'S.
BUT FARRELL'S DYING
DROPPED IT RIGHT
IN HER LAP.
LOOK IT--WHEN THEIR
DADDY DIED,
HE LEFT THE BUSINESS
TO FARRELL,
BUT HE LEFT THE LAND
THAT IT WAS ON
TO MELISSA.
AS LONG AS FARRELL
KEPT THAT BAR OPEN,
MELISSA COULDN'T
SELL OFF A SPOONFUL
OF THE DIRT.
UH, HOW MUCH
IS THIS LAND WORTH?
AROUND $2 MILLION.
I'M FINDING THIS KIND OF
HARD TO BELIEVE.
I'VE GOT A COPY
OF THE WILL WITH ME.
RIGHT HERE ON PAPER.
EVERYTHING REVERTS
DIRECTLY TO MELISSA.
YOU'RE BOTH
MILLIONAIRES.
[SIGHS]
WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE?
ALL I WANT IS THAT
MY KIDS DON'T
GO WITHOUT.
WHAT WAS RIGHTFULLY
THEIR FATHER'S OUGHT
TO GO TO THEM.
TWICE BEFORE, I'VE TRIED
TO BROACH THE SUBJECT
WITH MELISSA,
BUT SHE KEEPS
RUNNING OFF SOMEWHERE
TO MEET WITH THAT COP.
WHAT COP?
[WHISPERING]
Hi.
HI.
I BROUGHT YOU
SOME COFFEE.
REALLY?
MILK, ONE SUGAR.
THAT'S ALL?
I NEED MORE SUGAR.
A LOT MORE.
[TIRES SCREECH]
WALKER!
OPEN THIS FUCKING DOOR!
MELISSA, I KNOW
YOU'RE IN THERE!
MELISSA!
YOU BITCH!
YOU SET ME UP!
YOU SET ME UP!
COME ON!
[GUNSHOT]
[GRUNTS SOFTLY]
YOU...
DAMN SON OF A BITCH.
[EXHALES]
WHO AM I SPEAKING TO,
PLEASE?
SAL, THIS IS
LIEUTENANT WALKER.
CAN I SPEAK
TO CAPTAIN BROOKS?
THANKS.
HELLO, CAPTAIN. UH...
NO, SIR. THERE'S, UH--
I NEED AN O.S.I. TEAM
AND A CORONER AT MY
HOUSE. THERE'S BEEN
AN INCIDENT.
[SIGHS]
NO, SIR, I'M OK.
[SIGHS]
WELL, UH...
YARNELL MADE GOOD
ON HIS THREAT, SIR.
YES.
THANK YOU.
MELISSA...
HEY.
HE WAS GONNA KILL US.
MELISSA...
WE HAVE TO GET DRESSED.
UNDERSTAND?
HE WAS GONNA KILL YOU.
[PANTING]
COME ON.
ALL RIGHT, SWEETHEART.
COME ON.
LOOK...
WE CAN TAKE CARE
OF THIS 2 WAYS.
EITHER HE IS GONNA PUT
YOU THROUGH THE RINGER
OR I CAN...
I CAN FUDGE YOU THROUGH.
HOW?
YARNELL THREATENED ME
THE OTHER DAY AT
THE PRECINCT
IN FRONT OF A FEW MEN.
I COULD SAY
IT WAS SELF DEFENSE.
MATT, I'M SCARED.
ALL RIGHT, LOOK...
WE HAVE TO HURRY, OK?
'CAUSE THEY'RE
ON THEIR WAY.
WE'VE GOT TO HURRY.
YOU'VE GOT TO GET
DRESSED AND GO HOME.
WHEN THE POLICE
COME TO TELL YOU,
YOU'VE GOT TO
BREAK DOWN.
YOU WERE NEVER HERE. GO.
[TIRES SCREECHING]
[MEN TALKING QUIETLY]
Man: I DON'T KNOW.
THE TELEVISION WAS ON.
[CAR DOOR OPENS]
[CAR DOOR CLOSES]
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
MATTHEW.
HI.
I'M SORRY
FOR STOPPING BY.
I...
TRIED CALLING.
THE MACHINE WAS ON.
YOU OK?
TANNER WAS HERE. HE'S NOT
HANDLING IT TOO WELL.
OH.
CAN I COME IN?
I DON'T THINK THAT'S
A GOOD IDEA RIGHT NOW.
JUST FOR 5 MINUTES.
NO, MATT, I'M SUPPOSED TO BE
AT THE UNDERTAKER'S.
WELL, I WANT TO EXPLAIN
WHAT WENT DOWN IN THE
INVESTIGATION.
LOOK, I DON'T HAVE
THE TIME RIGHT NOW.
I THOUGHT IF ANYONE COULD
UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M GOING
THROUGH, IT WOULD BE YOU.
BUT I CAN SEE YOU'RE JUST
TOO CONCERNED WITH YOURSELF.
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
THIS WHOLE THING
IS TO PROTECT YOU.
I'M SORRY, MATT.
I JUST DON'T THINK
IT'S A GOOD IDEA THAT
WE SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN.
HEH.
I PUT MY WHOLE CAREER
ON THE LINE FOR YOU.
I WAS VULNERABLE.
I CAME TO YOU FOR HELP.
I DIDN'T WANT MIKE DEAD.
WELL, NEITHER DID I.
YOU KNOW? I MEAN,
YOU WERE THE ONE WHO
SHOT HIM, REMEMBER?
IT WAS YOUR HOUSE...
YOUR GUN.
YOU LIED ABOUT YOUR INVOLVEMENT
WITH THE VICTIM'S WIFE.
HOW ARE YOU GOING
TO EXPLAIN THAT?
HUH?
[SIGHS]
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
I'M SAYING THAT
IT'S OVER BETWEEN US, MATT.
IT'S OVER.
OH, MELISSA--
GOOD-BYE, MATT.
MELISSA--
WHO WAS IT?
MY COMPETITION?
DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH.
WHAT DID HE WANT?
GUESS.
HEH.
HE'S NOT GONNA BE
A PROBLEM, IS HE?
I DON'T THINK SO.
YOU SHOULD BE GLAD
I CAN'T GET UP AND
KICK YOUR ASS TO SUNDAY.
LOOK AT YOU.
YOU'RE A GODDAMN HIGH SCHOOL KID
WITH AN ACHING HEART.
IT'S NOT THAT, GIB.
I FUCKED UP, MAN.
EACH TIME THE O.S.I.
WALKED ME THROUGH
THE GODDAMN SCENE,
I WAS CHOKING ON
THE FUCKING LIES
I HAD TO FEED THEM.
SORRY.
YARNELL'S VOICE...
KEEPS NAGGING AT ME.
SHE'S DOING IT AGAIN.
I FEEL IT IN MY GUT.
OH, BULLSHIT.
YOU'RE FEELING SO GUILTY
ABOUT POKING THIS GUY'S WIFE
YOU'RE BEGINNING TO SEE
CONSPIRACIES IN YOUR CEREAL.
YOU'RE LETTING YOUR ACHING HEART
AND YOUR COCK-EYED DINGUS
LEAD YOU AROUND.
JUST LOSE THIS THING.
I WISH I COULD.
I KEEP...THINKING...
YARNELL WOULD BE ALIVE
TODAY IF I DIDN'T--
BUT YOU DID.
YOU GOT INVOLVED IN
A DOMESTIC SITUATION THAT
COULD ONLY END IN DISASTER.
DUST IT OFF
AND GO BACK TO WORK.
WELL...
PAPPY KNOWS BEST.
WALKER.
WALKER!
YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH.
THE O.S.I. REPORT CAME DOWN.
IT'S OK. AFTER I GAVE
MY STATEMENT, IT WAS A LOCK.
YOU KNEW THAT.

[MUSIC CONTINUES]
YOU LITTLE BITCH.
HOW DARE YOU COME HERE
ASKING FOR MONEY.
I'M ONLY ASKING FOR WHAT
WAS RIGHTFULLY FARRELL'S
IN THE FIRST PLACE.
HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT?
I'LL SETTLE FOR HALF.
HEH. YOU HAVE TO BE
JOKING. HEH.
HALF?
PUT IT IN A TRUST FUND
UNDER THE CHILDREN'S' NAMES.
I CAN'T THINK OF ONE
GOOD REASON WHY I SHOULD
GIVE YOU ANYTHING.
BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T,
I'LL CONTEST THE WILL.
I CAN TIE UP THAT MONEY
AND DRAG YOU THROUGH

NOT ONLY A BITCH,

NO, MELISSA.

PLEASE. SPARE ME

GREAT. WHAT TIME?
HOW ABOUT 1:00?
FINE.
MUCH BETTER.
NOW, GET OUT OF MY HOUSE.
HEH.
GET OUT.

[WHISPERING]
Shit.
HEH.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]
MELISSA?
MELISSA, YOU'VE GOT
MY PAPERS IN THERE.
Melissa:
I TALKED TO HER.
SHE WANTS
HALF THE MONEY.
YEAH, SHE WAS HERE.
I THINK SHE'S GONNA
BE A PROBLEM.
OH, YOU'LL HAVE TO DO
SOMETHING ABOUT HER.
GET HER
OUT OF THE PICTURE.
GET HER OUT OF THE WAY.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
Matt: ONE SECOND.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
CAN I HELP YOU?
I'M CHARLENE LERNOUX.
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU
ABOUT MELISSA YARNELL.
WHAT ABOUT HER?
I THINK SHE IS GOING
TO TRY TO KILL ME.
WHERE'D YOU GET THIS?
WOULD YOU BELIEVE
IT WAS A BIRTHDAY PRESENT?
DO YOU REALLY EXPECT ME
TO USE THIS?
IF WE MAKE IT LOOK LIKE
A BREAK-IN, WHO WILL
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE?
COME ON.
IF WE MOVE NOW,
WE'LL STILL HAVE TIME.
WE'LL BEAT THEM
TO THE PUNCH.
AND I KNOW JUST THE MAN
WHO SHOULD HAVE A PIECE
OF THE ACTION.
WHO?
BILL TANNER.
HE WAS YARNELL'S PARTNER.
I WANT HIM
TO KNOW THE TRUTH.
Man, on machine:
THIS IS BILL TANNER.
LEAVE YOUR MESSAGE.
[BEEP]
Matt: BILL...
UH, THIS IS MATT WALKER.
I HAVE SOME IMPORTANT
INFORMATION.
PLEASE MEET ME
AT FARRELL'S CLUB.
YOU HAVE THE CROWBAR?
RIGHT HERE.
WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED,
DON'T PANIC.
JUST WALK SLOWLY
BACK TO THE CAR.
Charlene: HELLO?
MELISSA?
MELISSA!
OK, IF YOU'RE GONNA
PLAY GAMES,
I AM LEAVING.
AH!
DON'T YOU WANT YOUR MONEY?
Matt: HALPERIN!
[STRAINS]
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
ARE YOU OK?
YEAH.
[DOOR OPENS]
WE GOTTA CALL AN O.S.I TEAM.
MOVE AWAY FROM THERE
AND DROP THE GUN.
WHAT, ARE YOU DEAF?
MOVE AWAY FROM THERE
AND DROP THE GUN!
YOU DROP IT.
Bill: DON'T YOU MOVE!
I THOUGHT YOU AND YARNELL
WERE FRIENDS.
LIFE GETS COMPLICATED.
YEAH...
2 MILLION PLUS. NO WONDER.
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
TELL HIM.
IT SAYS SO IN THE WILL.
SHOOT HIM.
SHUT UP.
WITH THEM OUT OF THE
PICTURE, WE CAN HAVE IT
JUST THE WAY WE WANT IT.
I SAID SHUT UP!
TELL HIM WHO YOUR
BOYFRIEND IS, MELISSA.
[CHUCKLES]
NOBODY. I ALREADY
TOLD YOU THAT.
YOU'RE A LIAR.
I USED HIM. I HAD TO
USE HIM TO GET HER
OUT OF THE WAY.
YEAH.
THAT'S RIGHT. SHE USED HIM.
SHE USED ALL OF US.
TELL HIM, MELISSA.
[CHUCKLING]
HE'S LYING.
TELL HIM. TELL HIM!
Matt: LOOKING BACK ON IT ALL,
I GUESS THINGS ENDED UP
THE WAY THEY WERE MEANT TO.
CHARLENE SOLD THE BAR.
AT LEAST HER KIDS
ARE TAKEN CARE OF NOW.
GIBBY WENT AHEAD
WITH HIS RETIREMENT.
HE'S DOING FINE.
MY DAUGHTER FINALLY
CAME TO VISIT.
WE HAD A GREAT TIME.
OTHER THAN THAT, THINGS ARE
PRETTY MUCH THE SAME.
YOU KNOW, I HAVE THIS FEELING
I USED TO GET WHEN I WAS A KID.
I KEEP THINKING
SOMETHING'S GOT TO CHANGE.
IT'S LIKE GIBBY SAID.
I KEEP WONDERING
IF THIS IS ALL THERE IS.
MAYBE I'LL FIND OUT.
MAYBE TOMORROW.
I TELL YOU WHAT, BABY.
PULL AROUND THE CORNER,
AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT.
HOW MUCH?
DEPENDS.
[SIGHS] ON?
ON WHAT YOU WANT.
[SIGHS]
HALF AND HALF.
HOW MUCH YOU

40.
40. LOOK, MR. TIGHT ASS,
YOU NEED TO TAKE YOUR BUTT
DOWN TO WESTERN AVENUE,
'CAUSE THEY'LL DO YOU FOR
CHEAP. I DON'T HAVE TIME.
LOOK, I'LL GO 50,
ALL RIGHT?
HEY, GET REAL, BUDDY.
HEY, I JUST WANNA
TALK TO YOU.

I'VE HAD WORSE.
YEAH, LIKE SOME
OF THE WOMEN YOU DATE.
[LAUGHS]
YOU'RE SO MEAN.
THAT'S MY PARTNER.
YOU HUNGRY?
NAH. I'M GONNA
STICK TO MY BEER.
HMM. YOU WANT SOMETHING?
NAH. I GOTTA GO HOME
AND GET SOME SLEEP.
YOU SURE?
I'LL LEAVE
YOU TWO ALONE.
YEAH, GIVE ME A CALL
WHEN YOU GET UP.
YEAH. GOOD WORK.
SEE YOU LATER.
WISH HE'D MEET SOMEBODY.
[MACHINE BEEPING]
EXCUSE ME.
WHAT ARE YOU
DOING IN HERE?
I'M SITTING
WITH MY PARTNER.
ARE YOU A MEMBER
OF THE IMMEDIATE FAMILY?
LIKE I SAID,
HE'S MY PARTNER.
AND YOU DON'T GET
ANY MORE IMMEDIATE
THAN THAT.
LISTEN, DO YOURSELF
A FAVOR.
GO HOME AND
GET SOME REST.
BOTTOM LINE.
IS HE GOING
TO MAKE IT?
HE'S GOT A FAIR CHANCE.
HE DESERVES BETTER.
P.A.: DR. DAVIS,
TELEPHONE.
PLEASE, DR. DAVIS,
TELEPHONE.
I DON'T KNOW.
I DIDN'T MAKE IT
TO THE GROCERY STORE.
WHY DON'T YOU
TAKE A LOOK?
YOU KNOW, I THINK
I'M GOING TO TAKE
A COUPLE DAYS OFF.
WHY?
WELL, I DON'T LIKE
BEING AWAY FROM YOU.
WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO EAT?
I DON'T KNOW.
WHAT DO YOU GOT?
WELL, WE GOT, UM,
SOME FRUIT.
APPLES, GRAPES,
CHERRIES, WATERMELON.
SOME SANDWICH STUFF.
YOU WANT A SANDWICH?
NO, NO.
UH, MMM. SOME
OLD PIZZA BACK THERE.
HEH. EGGS.
YOU WANT EGGS?
NO. I JUST WANT YOU.
YOU WANT ME?
WE GOT A COMPLAINT
THERE'S A PROWLER
IN THE AREA.
REALLY?
MM-HMM.
I'D EXPECT YOUR FULL
COOPERATION.
OH. I'M WILLING
TO COOPERATE
IN ANY WAY, OFFICER.
WHAT CAN I DO
TO HELP?
ASSUME THE POSITION.
HA HA HA.
JUST LET ME KNOW
IF THERE'S ANYTHING
I CAN DO.
WATCH IT.
SO FAR, YOU'RE
DOING OK.
A PROWLER?
YOU THINK
I'M IN DANGER HERE?
NOT YET.
[TELEPHONE RINGING]
Answering Machine:
HI. YOU'VE REACHED
THE YARNELL RESIDENCE.
NEITHER MIKE
NOR MELISSA ARE HOME.
PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE.
[BEEPS]
Man: MELISSA,
IT'S FARRELL.
IF YOU'RE THERE,
WOULD YOU PICK UP
THE PHONE?
LOOK, I DON'T KNOW
WHY YOU'RE NOT
CALLING ME BACK.
I'M AT THE BAR,
AND I NEED
TO TALK TO YOU.
ALL RIGHT?
JESUS, MELISSA.
BYE.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
EVERY TIME
YOUR BROTHER CALLS,
YOU LOSE IT.
[SOBS]
NO!
[LOUNGE MUSIC PLAYING]
HONEY...
MIKE...
MIKE...
WHAT?
I MANAGED TO GET US
AN APPOINTMENT
WITH DR. HALPERIN.
HE CAN SEE US
AT 10:00.
MELISSA, YOU KNOW
I DON'T LIKE SHRINKS.
LEAVE ME ALONE.
MIKE, HE'S HELPED ME
A LOT,
AND I WISH YOU WOULD
COME WITH ME
TO SEE HIM.
ALL RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT.
I'M UP.
OK. GET UP. IT'S
A QUARTER TO 9:00.
WE GOT TO GO.
I'M UP!
WHAT TIME IS IT?
QUARTER TO 9:00.
[MUMBLING]
OH, WALKER.
IMPECCABLE TIMING.
THIS IS MARTIN ERLICH
OF THE A.C.L.U.
HE WANTS TO HAVE
A WORD WITH YOU.
I'LL HAVE TO CHECK
MY CALENDAR.
HOW ABOUT RIGHT NOW,
DETECTIVE?
I DON'T HAVE THE TIME.
UH, CAPTAIN,
CAN I SPEAK TO YOU
A SECOND?
CAPTAIN BROOKS,
THIS IS EXACTLY
THE KIND OF INSOLENCE
AND LACK OF RESPECT
FOR THE A.C.L.U.
THAT CASTS A BLACK CLOUD
OVER THIS DEPARTMENT.
IF YOU DON'T MIND,
I'VE GOT A PARTNER
FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE
OVER AT COUNTY.
SO, EXCUSE ME VERY MUCH
IF I DON'T HAVE
THE INCLINATION
TO DISCUSS THE SIXTH
AMENDMENT WITH YOU.
LET ME CHECK
ON MY OFFICER
AT THE HOSPITAL,
I PROMISE
HE'LL CALL YOU,
MARTIN.
I KNOW YOU'RE HURTING
ABOUT GIBBY,
BUT CUTTING NEW ASSHOLES
WITH THE A.C.L.U. GUYS
IS NOT EXACTLY
IN THE BEST INTEREST OF
THE DEPARTMENT NOWADAYS.
I'M SORRY, CAPTAIN.
YOU KNOW, THE LAST THING
I NEEDED THIS MORNING
WAS SOME WEASEL IN MY FACE,
LECTURING ME
ABOUT THE RIGHTS
OF PSYCHO KILLERS.
MAYBE HE'S HAVING
A FIELD DAY
WITH THIS MADDOX FIASCO.
EVERY OTHER DAY,
SOME PERP
IS ON THE TUBE,
MAKING A CASE
FOR POLICE BRUTALITY.
ALL I KNOW IS GIBBY'S
ON LIFE SUPPORT.
HIS WIFE IS WORRIED
ABOUT HER NEXT DIME.
WHAT'S THIS?
GIBBY'S DISABILITY PAPERS.
I'D APPRECIATE
YOUR PROCESSING THEM
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
HIS NAME IS YARNELL.
HE'S WITH VICE.
MIKE YARNELL?
YOU KNOW HIM?
WE PARTNERED
OUT OF THE ACADEMY.
GOOD COP.
HE WAS INVOLVED
IN A SHOOTING
THE OTHER NIGHT.
REVIEW BOARD BUMPED
HIM OVER TO US.
REPORT SAYS HERE
THAT THE SUSPECT HAD
A STRAIGHT RAZOR.
YEAH. FAMILY MAN.
FATHER OF 6.
NO PRIORS. HIS WIFE
GOT YOUR FRIEND
THE A.C.L.U.
INVOLVED.
THIS LOOKS
OPEN AND SHUT TO ME.
WELL, WALK IT THROUGH,
JUST THE SAME,
AND CLOSE IT
BY THE BOOK.
TAKE CARE OF THOSE
FOR ME?
I WILL.
THANKS.
WHY ARE YOU
ASKING ME
ALL THE QUESTIONS?
DID YOU FORGET
THAT SHE'S THE ONE
WITH THE PROBLEM?
HOW YOU FEEL
ABOUT IT
HAS A LOT TO DO
WITH OUR FINDING
A SOLUTION.
AH. HEH.
WELL, HOW DO YOU THINK
I FEEL ABOUT IT?
I MEAN--I MEAN,
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL
ABOUT IT?
MIKE, NOBODY'S
BLAMING YOU.
NOT MELISSA,
NOT ME.
THEN, WHY AM I CATCHING
ALL THE FLAK?
I MEAN, YOU REALLY
WANT MY OPINION?
HUH? I THINK IT HAS
TO DO WITH HER FATHER.
HE PASSED AWAY 2 WEEKS AGO,
AND EVER SINCE THEN,
IT'S LIKE COMING HOME
TO SYBIL.
AND I DON'T KNOW
WHO THE HELL'S
GOING TO BE THERE.
MELISSA,
AT OUR LAST SESSION,
YOU BEGAN TO TELL ME
ABOUT THE DEATH
OF YOUR FATHER.
THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH MY FATHER.
WELL, THEN WHAT?
MIKE, PLEASE.
THEN WHAT?
MELISSA, GO AHEAD.
STATE IT
AT YOUR OWN PACE.
IT HAS TO DO
WITH MY BROTHER.
WE HAD PROBLEMS
SINCE WE WERE KIDS.
AFTER MY FATHER
GOT SICK,
MY BROTHER
FARRELL...
HE CAME BACK TO...
TO TAKE CARE
OF BUSINESS,
AND TO TAKE CARE
OF MY DAD.
MY FATHER OWNED
A NIGHT CLUB BAR.
ANYWAY...
[SIGHS]
FARRELL CAME BACK.
AND I HAD GOTTEN
HIM OUT OF MY MIND,
THROUGH ALL THESE YEARS.
AND NOW HE'S BACK.
HE'S BACK HERE
IN THE SAME CITY.
AND EVERY TIME
THE PHONE RINGS,
OR THERE'S A KNOCK
AT THE DOOR...
I LOSE IT.
I JUST WANT HIM
OUT OF MY LIFE.
WHY DIDN'T YOU
EVER TELL ME
ABOUT THIS, MELISSA?
WELL, WHAT THE HELL'S
GOING ON BETWEEN YOU
AND YOUR BROTHER?
NOTHING.
CHRIST. IT'S GOT
TO BE SOMETHING.
DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND,
MIKE?
NO.
I JUST WANT
TO FORGET IT.
FORGET WHAT?
WHAT'S THE SOURCE
OF YOUR PROBLEM
WITH YOUR BROTHER?
I CAN'T TELL YOU.
PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME
TELL YOU.
MELISSA...
YOU CALLED ME.
NOW, WHY DID YOU
MAKE THE CALL,
UNLESS YOU WANTED
TO TELL SOMEONE?
BECAUSE HE
MADE ME DO IT.
DO WHAT?
HE--
HE WOULD SNEAK
INTO MY ROOM
ALMOST EVERY NIGHT.
I WOULDN'T
LOOK AT HIM.
I COULDN'T.
HIS HANDS...
HIS HANDS WERE
ALWAYS SWEATY.
HOT.
AND HE HAD
THIS SMELL.
THEN HE MADE ME
DO THESE THINGS.
THESE HORRIBLE...
DIRTY...THINGS.
MELISSA, HOW COME
YOU NEVER TOLD ME
ABOUT THIS?
HOW COME?
HOW COME?
MIKE, WHAT COULD YOU
HAVE DONE?
WHAT COULD YOU
HAVE DONE?
BILL TANNER?
MATT WALKER.
PLEASE SIT DOWN.
HOW'S YOUR HAND?
I GOT 88 STITCHES
HOLDING IT TOGETHER.
OTHER THAN THAT,
IT'S FINE.
SO, WHY IS I.A.D.
SO INTERESTED
IN WHAT HAPPENED
THE OTHER NIGHT?
IT'S ROUTINE.
JUST PROCEDURE.
NOBODY'S INTERESTED
IN HURTING A GOOD COP
DOING HIS JOB.
THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW.
TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED
TUESDAY NIGHT.
IT'S ALL THERE
IN THE REPORT.
DIDN'T YOU READ IT?
LOOK, BILL...
YOU KNOW
THE DEPARTMENT IS UNDER
THE MICROSCOPE LATELY
ABOUT THIS
EXCESSIVE FORCE.
WE GOT TO GO
BY THE BOOK,
SO I'D APPRECIATE
THE HELP.
GO AHEAD.
IT'S VERY SIMPLE.
I WENT TO CUFF
THE SON OF A BITCH.
HE COMES AFTER ME
WITH A RAZOR.
YARNELL SHOOTS HIM.
THAT'S IT.
HOW LONG HAVE
YOU AND YARNELL
BEEN PARTNERS?
JEEZ, I DON'T KNOW.
WHAT? 5 YEARS?
HE HAS THREE 181s
IN THE PAST 18 MONTHS,
AND YOU BACKED HIM UP
EVERY TIME.
WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING?
THAT I LIED
ON THE REPORT?
DOES THIS LOOK
LIKE I'M LYING?
I'M NOT IMPLYING
ANYTHING.
I'M INTERESTED
IN THE MENTAL CONDITION
OF YOUR PARTNER.
THERE'S NOTHING WRONG
WITH THE MENTAL
CONDITION OF MY PARTNER.
HE HAS A HISTORY
OF USING EXCESSIVE FORCE.
EXCESSIVE FORCE.
YOU KNOW,
THEY JUMP ON US
FOR THE SLIGHTEST
AMOUNT OF BULLSHIT.
WE'RE OUT THERE
EVERY NIGHT,
DEALING WITH THESE
FUCKING ANIMALS.
WHEN A COP TRIES
TO PROTECT HIMSELF,
NOBODY WANTS
TO HEAR ABOUT IT.
WHO DO WE GO TO
WHEN WE HAVE A PROBLEM?
WHEN YOU'RE BETWEEN
A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE...
A COP ONLY HAS
HIS PARTNER
TO DEPEND ON.
THAT'S RIGHT.
YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE
YOU'D LIKE TO ADD?
I THINK I SAID
EVERYTHING.
THANKS.
THANK YOU.
DON'T.
WHAT EXACTLY DID
THAT SON OF A BITCH
DO TO YOU, ANYWAY?
WHY DO YOU
WANT TO KNOW?
BECAUSE IT'S TEARING US
APART, THAT'S WHY.
I'M SORRY I EVER
BROUGHT IT UP.
HOW COME YOU NEVER
TALKED TO ME ABOUT IT?
WHAT COULD YOU CHANGE
NOW, MIKE?
WHAT COULD YOU
DO ABOUT IT?
MRS. YARNELL?
YES.
MATT WALKER. I.A.D.
I'D LIKE TO SPEAK
WITH YOUR HUSBAND.
IS HE EXPECTING YOU?
NOT EXACTLY.
WELL,
HE'S STILL SLEEPING.
IT'S IMPORTANT,
MA'AM.
I DON'T REALLY FEEL
COMFORTABLE ABOUT
WAKING HIM UP RIGHT NOW.
HE'S REALLY TIRED.
YEAH.
SOMETHING I CAN
HELP YOU WITH?
HOW YOU DOING, MIKE?
OH, SHIT.
DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE
THE SAME WALKER
WITH I.A.D.
BEEN A LONG TIME.
YEAH.
HONEY, MATT AND ME--
WE USED TO WORK TOGETHER
WHEN WE WERE HOT SHOTS
OUT OF THE ACADEMY.
REALLY?
YEAH.
HE'S COME A LONG WAY.
MADE HIS STRIPES
CRAWLING UP
OTHER COPS' ASSES.
AIN'T THAT RIGHT,
MATT?
I DIDN'T DRIVE
ALL THE WAY OUT HERE
TO GIVE YOU GRIEF,
SO LIGHTEN UP,
ALL RIGHT?
I TAKE A FEW
DAYS OFF SICK,
I.A.D. SHOWS UP
ON MY FUCKING DOORSTEP?
HOW AM I SUPPOSED
TO FEEL?
NOBODY AT I.A.D.
WANTS TO HURT YOU.
I JUST WANT TO SPEND
A FEW MINUTES
WITH YOU,
ASK YOU
SOME QUESTIONS.
EVERYTHING I HAD TO SAY
WAS IN MY REPORT.
TANNER'LL
BACK ME UP 100%.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
TANNER BACKS YOU UP.
BUT WE NEED TO HEAR
YOUR VERSION
OF WHAT HAPPENED.
CLOSE THIS OUT.
YOU WANT TO TALK
TO ME?
YOU DO IT TO ME
WHEN I'M ON THE CLOCK,
NOT IN MY HOME.
YOU'RE AGGRAVATING
A SIMPLE PROCEDURAL
MATTER, MIKE.
MIKE, I THINK
YOU SHOULD TALK TO HIM.
GET IN THE HOUSE.
HONEY, HE'S RIGHT.
JUST GET
IN THE HOUSE!
OK.
ONLY TRYING TO HELP.
YEAH, RIGHT.
WE KNOW THIS GUY
YARNELL?
P.A.: DR. DAVIS,
TELEPHONE.
WELL, HE'S, UH...
HE WORKS
HOLLYWOOD VICE.
AND WE CAUGHT
HIS PACKAGE THE DAY
AFTER YOU WENT DOWN.
HE AND HIS PARTNER,
THEY WERE INVOLVED
IN A...
SHOOTING
OF A RAPE PERP.
HE HAD A RAZOR.
POOR FUCKING PERP.
PERP'S WIFE GOT
THE A.C.L.U. INVOLVED.
CLAIMS EXCESSIVE FORCE.
YOU KNOW. THAT BULLSHIT.
ANYWAY, THE ISSUING
TEAM KICKED THE BALL
DOWN TO US.
I CHECK IT OUT.
YARNELL'S GOT 3 PRIOR 181s.
HE'S NOT COOPERATING.
WHAT ABOUT
THE PARTNER?
HE TOOK 88 STITCHES
FROM THE RAZOR.
WHEW.
SOUNDS PRETTY
OPEN AND SHUT TO ME.
THIS GUY YARNELL
MAYBE HAVE A HARD-ON
FOR YOU FOR SOME REASON?
NO. BUT HE'S GOT
A HARD-ON FOR ANYONE
CONNECTED WITH I.A.D.
YOU KNOW HOW THAT IS.
HE'S A GOOD COP, GIB.
HE'S HURTING.
AND THAT'S
A CRASH AND BURN
IN THE MAKING,
UNLESS HE GETS
SOME HELP.
WHY DON'T YOU
RECOMMEND IT?
HEY...
IF COPS DON'T HELP COPS,
WHO THE HELL
ELSE WILL?
YOU TOOK THE WORDS
RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH,
GIBBY.
JUST TAKE IT EASY,
WILL YOU?
THIS GUY'S RUINING
MY LIFE.
YOU WANT ME
TO TAKE IT EASY?
COME BACK AT 7:00.
WE'RE CLOSED.
WE'RE LOOKING
FOR FARRELL.
I'M FARRELL. WHAT CAN
I DO FOR YOU?
CLASSY LITTLE PLACE.
ALL EXCEPT FOR
THE PIECE OF SHIT
WHO OWNS IT.
WHY DON'T YOU GUYS
TAKE OFF AND LET ME
GET BACK TO WORK?
YOU KNOW,
IT MAKES ME SICK
JUST BEING IN HERE
WITH YOU?
GET THE FUCK
OUT OF HERE.
I'M CALLING
THE COPS.
WE ARE THE COPS.
YOU'RE MELISSA'S
HUSBAND.
THAT'S RIGHT.
SHE TOLD ME
ALL ABOUT YOU, TOO.
OH, YEAH?
WELL, GET THE FUCK
OUT OF HERE.
HEY. NOW, YOU KEEP
THAT HORSE COCK
OUT OF MY FACE.
I SAID GET OUT
OF HERE!
DON'T! DON'T.
DON'T PROVOKE ME.
COME HERE!
COME HERE!
YOU'RE GOING
TO CLOSE DOWN,
AND STAY THE FUCK
OUT OF MY LIFE!
YOU HEAR ME?
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE
YOU UNDERSTAND THAT.
YOU LISTENING TO ME?
LET ME SHOW YOU,
YOU SON OF A BITCH!
YOU REALIZE
WHAT YOU DID TO ME?
DO YOU HEAR ME?
I JUST WANT
TO MAKE SURE
HE DOESN'T--
I KNOW. I'M ASKING.
THAT'S ALL.
YOU GODDAMNED
NASTY CREEP!
I'M ALL RIGHT!
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?
I'M ALL RIGHT!
YOU SON OF A BITCH!
I WANT YOU
OUT OF HERE!
DROP THAT GUN!
WHAT? ARE YOU GOING
TO SHOOT ME?
WHATEVER
MELISSA TOLD YOU,
SHE'S LYING.
DROP IT!
YOU AIN'T GOT THE BALLS
TO SHOOT A COP.
DON'T MAKE ME
DO THIS.
DROP THAT FUCKING GUN!
LOOK AT YOU.
YOU'RE SHAKING
ALL OVER.
YOU CAN'T
COME IN HERE
AND HASSLE ME.
AND THEY'LL
TAKE AWAY YOUR BADGE.
MY BADGE?
YOU MOTHER--
[GUNSHOT]
[GROANING]
OH, SHIT. SHIT.
[RASPING]
BILL...
OH, SHIT.
BILL...
BILL, HE SHOT HIMSELF.
HE SHOT HIMSELF!
YOU HEAR ME?
HE SHOT HIMSELF!
CAPTAIN...
I RECOMMEND
THAT WE PUT YARNELL
THROUGH A SERIES OF
PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING.
A GOOD COP.
HE DESERVES HELP.
YOU'RE GOING TO NEED
A LOT OF HELP.
HE JUST KILLED A GUY.
AND CATCH THIS.
THE VICTIM WAS
HIS WIFE'S BROTHER.
[CRYING] GOD.
[MOANS]
JUST GET HOME?
MELISSA, I HAVE
TO TELL YOU SOMETHING.
MMM.
WHAT TIME DID YOU
GET OFF WORK?
THAT TURD FARRELL--
HE'S DEAD.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
I JUST WENT THERE
TO TALK TO HIM.
HE PULLED OUT A GUN,
AND WHEN I WENT
TO TAKE IT AWAY...
HE'S DEAD?
I SWEAR TO GOD
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT,
MELISSA.
I JUST WENT THERE
TO SCARE HIM,
SO HE'D STOP
HASSLING YOU.
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.
BELIEVE ME,
MELISSA, PLEASE.
NO.
PLEASE DON'T HATE ME.
NO.
[SOBBING]
YOU'RE ALL I GOT LEFT
IN THIS WORLD.
I NEED YOU.
TOUCH ME.
BE WITH ME.
BE WITH ME.
YOU HATE ME.
THIS IS BULLSHIT,
CAPTAIN.
YOU TAKE AWAY MY BADGE,
YOU MAKE ME LOOK GUILTY.
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE,
YOUR HOME WILL BE
YOUR REGULAR DUTY
ASSIGNMENT,
DURING YOUR REGULARLY
SCHEDULED WATCHES.
EACH DAY, YOU WILL STAY
IN CONTACT WITH
YOUR WATCH COMMANDER,
AND INFORM HIM OF
ANY CHANGE IN LOCATION,
DUE TO OFFICIAL
BUSINESS.
HEH.
LIKE THE SHRINK?
YEAH.
STANDARD DEPARTMENTAL
PROCEDURE.
YEAH, WELL,
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY
RIGHT BEFORE
THEY NAIL YOUR ASS
TO THE WALL, CAPTAIN.
WHAT THE HELL'S
GOING ON?
WHAT'S HE DOING
AT MY DESK?
HEY!
NO. I'M ALL RIGHT.
I'M ALL RIGHT.
YOU HAVING FUN
RUINING MY LIFE?
YOU TOOK MY GUN.
YOU TOOK MY BADGE.
COOL IT DOWN,
MIKE, OK?
MAYBE YOU WANT
MY DESK, HUH?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
MIKE, MIKE!
HERE, TAKE MY...
MIKE! MIKE!
COME ON, MIKE!
YOU'RE DEAD!
YOU'RE DEAD!
YOU'RE DEAD!
MIKE, YOU NEED
HELP, MIKE!
YOU NEED
FUCKING HELP.
Minister: THROUGH
OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST,
WE COMMEND
TO ALMIGHTY GOD
OUR BROTHER
FARRELL LERNOUX.
AND WE COMMIT HIS BODY
TO THE GROUND.
EARTH TO EARTH.
ASHES TO ASHES.
DUST TO DUST.
THE LORD BLESS HIM
AND KEEP HIM.
THE LORD MAKE HIS FACE
TO SHINE UPON HIM,
AND BE GRACIOUS
UNTO HIM.
THE LORD LIFT UP
HIS COUNTENANCE UPON HIM,
AND GIVE HIM PEACE.
AMEN.
All: AMEN.
THE LORD BE WITH YOU.
WITH THY SPIRIT,
LET US PRAY.
Woman: BEAUTIFUL
SERVICE, FATHER.
Man: THANK YOU, FATHER.
THAT WAS VERY NICE.
YOU GOT SOME NERVE
SHOWING UP HERE TO HARASS ME.
Mike: YOU JUST REMEMBER
WHAT I SAID, WALKER, HUH?
[IMITATES GUNSHOT]
I WAS JUST
SAYING HELLO.
[ENGINE STARTS]
Gibson: ALL RIGHT. GIVE ME
CHAPTER AND VERSE.
WE TOOK AWAY
HIS GUN, HIS SHIELD,
PUT HIM
ON SUSPENSION.
THAT DOESN'T
TAKE CARE OF THE
DOMESTIC SITUATION.
I'LL BET
EVEN MONEY HE TAKES
IT OUT ON HIS WIFE.
HEY, YOU'VE DONE YOUR JOB.
LEAVE IT ALONE NOW.
I DON'T KNOW. LOOK,
THIS GUY YARNELL,
BROTHER IN BLUE,
HE'S LOOKING
AT MURDER ONE.
HEY, YOU CAN'T
BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR EVERY BADGE
IN THE DEPARTMENT.
I'M NOT TALKING BADGE.
I'M TALKING
HUMAN BEING, GIB.
[SIGHS]
EXCUSE ME.
HI.
SORRY I'M LATE.
I WAS AT THE D.A.'s OFFICE.
NO. NO, PLEASE,
I'M JUST GRATEFUL
THAT YOU COULD COME.
I DIDN'T REALLY
KNOW WHO TO CALL.
I COULDN'T
CALL TANNER.
I REALIZE
HOW DIFFICULT IT IS
FOR A COP'S WIFE
TO REACH OUT.
[SCOFFS]
YEAH. HOW DOES
YOUR WIFE HANDLE IT?
SHE DIDN'T.
I'M SORRY.
SO AM I,
AND SHE'S A LOT
HAPPIER WITHOUT ME.
MRS. YARNELL...
YOUR HUSBAND'S A GOOD COP.
HE JUST CLOCKED
A FEW TOO MANY HOURS
OUT THERE
IN JUNGLE LAND,
AND HE NEEDS HELP.
YEAH.
IT'S BEEN REALLY
DIFFICULT THIS
PAST YEAR WITH HIM.
HEY, WOULD YOU
LIKE A DRINK?
NO, I DON'T DRINK.
LOOK, I'M REALLY SORRY.
I'M USUALLY
NOT LIKE THIS.
IT'S JUST...
[SIGHS]
UM...
LOOK, I'M A GOOD LISTENER.
HMM?
YOU'VE GOT
SUCH PATIENCE.
YOUR KIDS
MUST LOVE YOU.
ONE.
SHE'S ALREADY
WAY BEYOND ME.
IN WHAT WAY?
IN WHAT WAY?
WELL, SHE...
SHE'S NOT AFRAID
OF NEW EXPERIENCES.
SHE LIKES PEOPLE,
SHE TRUSTS THEM.
AND YOU DON'T
TRUST PEOPLE?
IT'S NOT THAT.
IT'S JUST BEING A COP...
MY WIFE...
[CHUCKLES]
IT'S A BIT CYNICAL.
I'M NOT HERE
TO TALK ABOUT ME.
HOW CAN--WHAT CAN I DO?
HOW CAN I HELP YOU?
WELL, I, UM...
I FINALLY GOT
MIKE TO COME TO SEE
A THERAPIST WITH ME.
THAT'S GOOD.
YEAH, AND THEN
THIS THING WITH MY
BROTHER HAPPENED.
[SIGHING]
IS THERE ANY INFORMATION
YOU CAN TELL US THAT--
THAT MAY HELP UNDERSTAND
WHAT PROVOKED
YOUR BROTHER AND MIKE?
YEAH. MY BROTHER
WAS DISTURBED.
AND I'M SURE HE
JUST PUSHED MIKE...
A LITTLE BIT
TOO FAR.
WHAT WAS...
CAN YOU TELL ME THE NAME
OF THE THERAPIST?
UM...
YEAH.
DR. EUGENE HALPERIN.
WHERE IS HE LOCATED?
HE'S IN BEVERLY HILLS.
I REALIZE
THE DIFFICULT POSITION
YOU'RE IN RIGHT NOW.
LOOK, UH...
YOU CAN...
THERE'S A NUMBER ON THERE.
YOU CAN REACH
ME ANYTIME, DAY OR NIGHT,
IF YOU NEED HELP,
OR ANY QUESTIONS, ANYTHING.
OK.
THANKS.
WELL, GIVEN WHAT LITTLE
I'VE SEEN OF HER HUSBAND
I CAN WELL UNDERSTAND
WHY SHE'S CONCERNED.
GIVEN THAT,
I'M SORRY. I'M...
I DON'T THINK
I CAN BE OF MUCH HELP.
WELL, DOC, CAN YOU
TELL ME HOW MAYBE
HER BROTHER FITS
INTO THE SCENARIO.
AGAIN, I'M SORRY.
THAT WOULD
BE A VIOLATION
OF DOCTOR/PATIENT
CONFIDENTIALITY.
YOU KNOW, DOC,
UNDER CALIFORNIA LAW,
THERE ARE LIMITS
TO DOCTOR/PATIENT
CONFIDENTIALITY.
I'M WELL AWARE OF
THE LAW, LIEUTENANT,
AND BELIEVE ME, IF
AN OVERT THREAT HAD BEEN
MADE IN MY PRESENCE,
I WOULD'VE
FOLLOWED THE LAW.
[SIGHS]
YOU KNOW, GIB...
SOMETIMES I FEEL...
LIFE IS LIKE...
WINNING
THE LOTTERY WHERE...
THE JACKPOT
IS A ONE-WAY TICKET
DOWN
THE HERSHEY TRAIL.
I KNOW YOU, WALKER.
YOU'RE THE KIND OF COP
WHO PULLS LONG HOURS
SO HE DON'T HAVE
TO GO HOME AT NIGHT.
WHEN YOU DO GO HOME,
THERE'S NOTHING THERE
EXCEPT CHICKEN POT PIES
AND LATE-NIGHT MOVIES.
YOU SLEEP
WITH THE LIGHTS ON,
YOU CAN'T WAIT
TILL MORNING ROLLS AROUND.
THAT WAY YOU DON'T
HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF,
IS THIS WHAT IT
ALL COMES DOWN TO?
WHERE'D I MISS OUT?
WHERE'D I MAKE A WRONG TURN?
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING
TO TELL ME?
I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU WHAT
ANY COP WOULD TELL YOU.
YOU GET INVOLVED
IN A DOMESTIC SITUATION,
YOU END UP WITH YOUR BALLS
ROLLED UP REAL TIGHT.
[RAIN FALLING]
[DOOR CLOSES]
[DOOR CLOSES]
OHH.
DAMN IT.
I GOTTA REMEMBER TO ASK HER
WHERE SHE GOT THOSE SHOES.
[SIGHS]
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
Melissa: OUT.
OUT!
THAT'S A GOOD
ANSWER, MELISSA.
LOOK AT ME WHEN
I'M TALKING TO YOU.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOUT,
MIKE. I CAN HEAR YOU FINE.
ALL RIGHT. I WON'T.
JUST TELL ME
WHERE YOU'VE BEEN.
I WANT TO KNOW.
I WANT TO KNOW!
DON'T WALK AWAY. HEY!
I'VE BEEN GOING
THROUGH A LOT OF SHIT
BECAUSE OF YOU!
LET GO OF ME!
I'M MORTGAGED
TO THE HILT
SO YOU CAN
PLAY DRESS UP?
I DON'T THINK SO.
THE LEAST YOU CAN DO
FOR ME IS BE HERE
WHEN I GET HOME.
COME ON. BE MY BABY.
AAH! DON'T!
WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM,
MELISSA? HUH?
LET ME GO, MIKE!
WHO WILL I HAVE
TO FIX THIS TIME?!
WHERE THE HELL ARE
YOU GOING TO GO? WHERE?
DON'T TOUCH ME, MIKE!
DON'T YOU TOUCH ME!
DON'T YOU
LOCK ME OUT!
GET AWAY!
OPEN THIS DOOR!
STAY AWAY!
OPEN IT!
STAY AWAY!
I'M CALLING THE POLICE.
AH!
[TELEPHONE DINGS]
AAH!
YOU'VE BEEN
SEEING SOMEBODY
ON THE SIDE,
HAVEN'T YOU?
LET ME GO!
DON'T LIE!
YOU WERE FUCKING AROUND
BEHIND MY BACK, RIGHT?
YOU PATHETIC BASTARD,
LET ME GO!
DON'T LIE!
ALL RIGHT! YES!
I'VE BEEN FUCKING
TANNER, DR. HALPERIN.
NEXT THING YOU'LL
THINK I'M GOING TO DO
IS FUCK THAT I.A.D. GUY.
WHAT'S HIS NAME?!
SHUT UP!
[CAR DOOR OPENS
AND CLOSES]
LIEUTENANT WALKER!
I DIDN'T KNOW
WHERE ELSE TO GO.
LET'S AT LEAST GET YOU
IN OUT OF THE RAIN.
[THUNDER]
[GASPS]
SORRY.
LET ME GET YOU SOMETHING
FOR THOSE SCRATCHES.
DO YOU WANT ME
TO COME WITH YOU?
UM...YEAH.
IT'LL BE...EASIER.
[THUNDER]
[SNIFFLES]
CHRIST...
HE REALLY
WENT AT YOU.
YEAH.
BUT HE'S DONE WORSE.
THIS IS GOING TO...
MAYBE STING
JUST A LITTLE BIT.
OK.
EHH.
[SOBS QUIETLY]
[THUNDER]
EHH. [SOBS]
SORRY.
IT'S OK.
IT'S OK.
[SNIFFLES]
IT'S BETTER TO...
PUT A LITTLE BIT
THERE BECAUSE...
THESE THINGS
ARE DECEIVING.
UH...
NEED ANOTHER...
PAD.
EHH.
SORRY.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
IT'S A...
I BETTER GET THAT.
CAN YOU HOLD THIS?
[RING]
PLEASE?
[THUNDER]
[RING]
Matt: HELLO?
I UNDERSTAND
THAT, JOANNE,
BUT IT'S NOT THAT EASY.
I'M NOT
BEING INFLEXIBLE.
I JUST...
[THUNDER]
MM-HMM.
YEAH.
WELL, I'VE ALREADY GOT
OUR PLANE TICKETS, OK?
I PUT THEM
ON THE CREDIT CARD.
I'VE GOT
THE TIME BLOCKED OFF.
NO.
I SEE
YOUR POINT OF VIEW,
BUT WHY DO I HAVE
TO SEE MY DAUGHTER
WHEN IT'S ONLY
CONVENIENT FOR YOU?
Mike: HUH? UH...
I'M LISTENING.
[THUNDER]
Mike: LOOK, UH...
Mike: YEAH.
Mike: HUH?
LOOK...
WHY DON'T I JUST--
I'LL CALL YOU TOMORROW.
WE'LL DISCUSS IT,
AND WE'LL
WORK SOMETHING OUT.
YEAH.
OK.
CAN I SPEAK TO HER?
YEAH, I JUST WANT
TO SAY GOOD NIGHT.
NO, I'M NOT GOING
TO START ANYTHING.
I JUST WANT
TO TALK TO HER.
Mike: HI, ANGEL FACE.
NO, WE'RE GOING
TO WORK IT OUT.
OK? AND I'LL SEE YOU
AND WE'LL GO
AND WE'LL...
YEAH.
DISNEYLAND AND...
OK.
I LOVE YOU, TOO, SWEETIE.
DON'T LET THE BED BUGS BITE.
GOOD NIGHT.
HOW OLD'S
YOUR LITTLE GIRL?
Mike: 6.
UM...
I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND
THAT I PUT YOUR SHIRT ON.
I WAS KIND OF FREEZING
IN MY DRESS.
SHIT.
SORRY. I'M NOT THINKING.
I'LL GET YOU A BLANKET.
[FLOOR CREAKING]
[THUNDER]
YOU'RE VERY SWEET.
GOOD NIGHT.
CAN I GET YOU SOME
COFFEE OR, UH, TEA?
UM...YEAH.
SOME COFFEE.
A LITTLE MILK
AND ONE SUGAR.
[THUNDER]
[COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING]
I FOUND HIM SITTING
IN THE DARK WHEN I GOT HOME.
SAW THAT HE WAS DRUNK.
WHEN HE GETS LIKE THAT,
HE ACCUSES ME
OF THE UGLIEST THINGS.
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN SAY.
[SIGHS]
THERE'S DIRTY PICTURES
OF ME IN HIS MIND, AND HE...
I BEG HIM TO STOP, BUT...
HE'S OUT OF CONTROL.
AND I RAN OUT...
RAN OUT OF MY OWN HOUSE.
Melissa:
HI. YOU'VE REACHED
THE YARNELL RESIDENCE.
NEITHER MIKE
NOR MELISSA ARE HOME.
PLEASE LEAVE
A MESSAGE. [BEEP]
[COUNTRY MUSIC
PLAYING THROUGHOUT]
WATCH IT.
ONE MORE.
WHY DON'T YOU HANG
IT UP, PAL, HUH?
I'M CUTTING YOU OFF.
DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?
YEAH. YOU'RE
FUCKING GONE.
HEY.
BULLSHIT.
YOU FUCKING CRAZY?
I'M CLOSING YOU DOWN.
[OVERLAPPING SHOUTING]
UHH!
[GRUNTING]
AH!
STAY DOWN, OK, PAL?
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE A REAL
FUCKING ASSHOLE.
OH!
AAH!
OH!
♪ I SAY YOU CAN TAKE THE BOY
OUT OF THE COUNTRY ♪
♪ BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE THE COUNTRY
OUT OF THE BOY ♪
GET OUT. I'M GETTING
DRUNK JUST SMELLING YOU.
LOOK AT YOU.
YOU'RE A MESS.
I THINK I'M
LOSING HER, BILL.
EVERY TIME I TRY
TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT,
I JUST KEEP PUSHING
HER FURTHER AWAY.
I JUST KEEP FUCKING UP.
I THINK SHE'S UP
TO SOMETHING.
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
SHE SCREWING SOMEBODY?
LISTEN TO YOURSELF.
YOU'RE PARANOID.
YOU BETTER
JUST CALM DOWN.
CALM DOWN?
YEAH, CALM DOWN!
BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN.
YOU CAN'T GO ON
LIKE THIS.
DRINKING AND ACTING
LIKE A MADMAN.
YOU CAN'T DO THIS, MIKE.
YOU CAN'T DO IT.
YOU BETTER GO INSIDE,
TELL HER YOU'RE SORRY,
AND STRAIGHTEN
THIS THING OUT.
YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
GO ON.
MELI--
HI.
LOOK, I'M A REAL SHIT.
I KNOW IT.
I NEVER SHOULD'VE
SAID THOSE THINGS TO YOU.
YOU'RE RIGHT.
YEAH, BUT WHEN
YOU SAID THOSE THINGS
TO ME, I WENT CRAZY.
LISTEN, I CALLED ALL OVER
THE PLACE FOR YOU LAST NIGHT,
WHERE THE HELL
DID YOU GO?
I STAYED WITH A FRIEND.
WHO?
MIKE, DON'T START
IN ON ME AGAIN.
ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT!
HOW DID YOU GET
THESE SCRATCHES?
DON'T TOUCH ME!
YOU DON'T REMEMBER?
HOW COULD YOU REMEMBER?
YOU WERE DRUNK!
LOOK, I SAID I WAS...
[SOBBING]
I'M SORRY. LOOK...
[SIGHS]
I'LL DO ANYTHING.
GO SLEEP IT OFF
ON THE COUCH.
I JUST GOT A CALL FROM A PAL
OF MINE AT THE D.A.'s OFFICE.
THEY'RE SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING
CHARGING YOUR FRIEND YARNELL
WITH MURDER ONE.
THAT'S BULLSHIT.
WHAT DO THEY HAVE
THAT WE COULDN'T FIND?
JUST A LITTLE THING
CALLED THE TRUTH.
[TELEPHONE RINGS]
WALKER.
YEAH, HANG ON
JUST A SECOND.
PLEASE.
TAKE A WALK, POINDEXTER.
WHAT'S WRONG?
ALL RIGHT, SLOW DOWN.
JUST...
DON'T WORRY. JUST
TELL ME WHERE AND WHEN,
AND I'LL BE THERE.
SORRY TO BARGE INTO
YOUR LIFE AGAIN.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
ARE YOU OK?
NO, I'M NOT OK.
I FEEL LIKE I'M STUCK
IN SOMEONE ELSE'S
NIGHTMARE.
[SIGHING]
[THUNDER]
I'M LEAVING HIM.
I'M LEAVING MIKE.
I JUST CAN'T TAKE
ANOTHER DAY OF IT.
WELL, YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO, AND...
YOU KNOW WHAT'S
INSIDE YOUR HEART.
WHY CAN'T I HAVE
A SIMPLE LIFE?
YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY
FOR SOMEBODY ELSE'S SINS.
I KNOW,
BUT I FEEL GUILTY.
I FEEL GUILTY BECAUSE
I CAN'T GET YOU
OUT OF MY MIND.
I CAN'T.
[SIGHS]
IS THAT WRONG?
[DOORBELL RINGS]
[DOORBELL RINGS]
YEAH?
UH, IS MELISSA HERE?
YEAH, SURE, COME ON IN.
UH, WHY DON'T YOU
JUST GO AHEAD AND WAIT
IN THE LIVING ROOM?
I'LL TELL HER YOU'RE HERE.
SURE.
MELISSA?
MELISSA?
I WAS WRONG.
SHE'S NOT HERE.
I'M SORRY.
WELL, WILL TELL HER THAT
CHARLENE LERNOUX IS TRYING
TO GET IN TOUCH WITH HER?
LERNOUX?
I'M MELISSA'S
EX-SISTER-IN-LAW.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
SISTER-IN-LAW?
I WAS MARRIED TO FARRELL.
5 YEARS I'VE BEEN
MARRIED TO MELISSA...
AND NEVER ONCE DID SHE MENTION
TO ME SHE HAD A SISTER-IN-LAW.
I CAN BELIEVE THAT.
WHEN I WAS MARRIED
TO FARRELL, SHE
JUST IGNORED ME.
I THINK IT WAS HER WAY
OF GETTING BACK AT HIM.
HEH.
AFTER WHAT THAT PERVERT
DID TO HER,
CAN YOU BLAME HER?
WHAT DID HE DO TO HER?
WELL, IT SEEMS THAT WHEN
THEY WERE GROWING UP,
UH, HE USED TO MOLEST HER.
[CHUCKLES]
WHAT, THIS IS FUNNY?
OH, THAT'S
THE BEST ONE YET.
WHAT, YOU THINK
I'M KIDDING?
MELISSA WAS ALWAYS
TELLING LIES ON FARRELL.
AND SHE WAS
ALWAYS GETTING CAUGHT
IN THEM, TOO.
I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.
MELISSA HATED FARRELL.
SO WHAT? SHE HATED HIM.
BIG DEAL!
I'M NOT HERE TO
CAUSE ANY TROUBLE.
GOOD.
ALL I WANT IS MY SHARE
OF THE MONEY.
MONEY? WHAT MONEY?
DIDN'T MELISSA TELL YOU?
SHE OWNS THE BAR NOW.
THAT WAS HER BROTHER'S BAR.
THAT'S NOT MELISSA'S.
BUT FARRELL'S DYING
DROPPED IT RIGHT
IN HER LAP.
LOOK IT--WHEN THEIR
DADDY DIED,
HE LEFT THE BUSINESS
TO FARRELL,
BUT HE LEFT THE LAND
THAT IT WAS ON
TO MELISSA.
AS LONG AS FARRELL
KEPT THAT BAR OPEN,
MELISSA COULDN'T
SELL OFF A SPOONFUL
OF THE DIRT.
UH, HOW MUCH
IS THIS LAND WORTH?
AROUND $2 MILLION.
I'M FINDING THIS KIND OF
HARD TO BELIEVE.
I'VE GOT A COPY
OF THE WILL WITH ME.
RIGHT HERE ON PAPER.
EVERYTHING REVERTS
DIRECTLY TO MELISSA.
YOU'RE BOTH
MILLIONAIRES.
[SIGHS]
WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE?
ALL I WANT IS THAT
MY KIDS DON'T
GO WITHOUT.
WHAT WAS RIGHTFULLY
THEIR FATHER'S OUGHT
TO GO TO THEM.
TWICE BEFORE, I'VE TRIED
TO BROACH THE SUBJECT
WITH MELISSA,
BUT SHE KEEPS
RUNNING OFF SOMEWHERE
TO MEET WITH THAT COP.
WHAT COP?
[WHISPERING]
Hi.
HI.
I BROUGHT YOU
SOME COFFEE.
REALLY?
MILK, ONE SUGAR.
THAT'S ALL?
I NEED MORE SUGAR.
A LOT MORE.
[TIRES SCREECH]
WALKER!
OPEN THIS FUCKING DOOR!
MELISSA, I KNOW
YOU'RE IN THERE!
MELISSA!
YOU BITCH!
YOU SET ME UP!
YOU SET ME UP!
COME ON!
[GUNSHOT]
[GRUNTS SOFTLY]
YOU...
DAMN SON OF A BITCH.
[EXHALES]
WHO AM I SPEAKING TO,
PLEASE?
SAL, THIS IS
LIEUTENANT WALKER.
CAN I SPEAK
TO CAPTAIN BROOKS?
THANKS.
HELLO, CAPTAIN. UH...
NO, SIR. THERE'S, UH--
I NEED AN O.S.I. TEAM
AND A CORONER AT MY
HOUSE. THERE'S BEEN
AN INCIDENT.
[SIGHS]
NO, SIR, I'M OK.
[SIGHS]
WELL, UH...
YARNELL MADE GOOD
ON HIS THREAT, SIR.
YES.
THANK YOU.
MELISSA...
HEY.
HE WAS GONNA KILL US.
MELISSA...
WE HAVE TO GET DRESSED.
UNDERSTAND?
HE WAS GONNA KILL YOU.
[PANTING]
COME ON.
ALL RIGHT, SWEETHEART.
COME ON.
LOOK...
WE CAN TAKE CARE
OF THIS 2 WAYS.
EITHER HE IS GONNA PUT
YOU THROUGH THE RINGER
OR I CAN...
I CAN FUDGE YOU THROUGH.
HOW?
YARNELL THREATENED ME
THE OTHER DAY AT
THE PRECINCT
IN FRONT OF A FEW MEN.
I COULD SAY
IT WAS SELF DEFENSE.
MATT, I'M SCARED.
ALL RIGHT, LOOK...
WE HAVE TO HURRY, OK?
'CAUSE THEY'RE
ON THEIR WAY.
WE'VE GOT TO HURRY.
YOU'VE GOT TO GET
DRESSED AND GO HOME.
WHEN THE POLICE
COME TO TELL YOU,
YOU'VE GOT TO
BREAK DOWN.
YOU WERE NEVER HERE. GO.
[TIRES SCREECHING]
[MEN TALKING QUIETLY]
Man: I DON'T KNOW.
THE TELEVISION WAS ON.
[CAR DOOR OPENS]
[CAR DOOR CLOSES]
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
MATTHEW.
HI.
I'M SORRY
FOR STOPPING BY.
I...
TRIED CALLING.
THE MACHINE WAS ON.
YOU OK?
TANNER WAS HERE. HE'S NOT
HANDLING IT TOO WELL.
OH.
CAN I COME IN?
I DON'T THINK THAT'S
A GOOD IDEA RIGHT NOW.
JUST FOR 5 MINUTES.
NO, MATT, I'M SUPPOSED TO BE
AT THE UNDERTAKER'S.
WELL, I WANT TO EXPLAIN
WHAT WENT DOWN IN THE
INVESTIGATION.
LOOK, I DON'T HAVE
THE TIME RIGHT NOW.
I THOUGHT IF ANYONE COULD
UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M GOING
THROUGH, IT WOULD BE YOU.
BUT I CAN SEE YOU'RE JUST
TOO CONCERNED WITH YOURSELF.
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
THIS WHOLE THING
IS TO PROTECT YOU.
I'M SORRY, MATT.
I JUST DON'T THINK
IT'S A GOOD IDEA THAT
WE SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN.
HEH.
I PUT MY WHOLE CAREER
ON THE LINE FOR YOU.
I WAS VULNERABLE.
I CAME TO YOU FOR HELP.
I DIDN'T WANT MIKE DEAD.
WELL, NEITHER DID I.
YOU KNOW? I MEAN,
YOU WERE THE ONE WHO
SHOT HIM, REMEMBER?
IT WAS YOUR HOUSE...
YOUR GUN.
YOU LIED ABOUT YOUR INVOLVEMENT
WITH THE VICTIM'S WIFE.
HOW ARE YOU GOING
TO EXPLAIN THAT?
HUH?
[SIGHS]
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
I'M SAYING THAT
IT'S OVER BETWEEN US, MATT.
IT'S OVER.
OH, MELISSA--
GOOD-BYE, MATT.
MELISSA--
WHO WAS IT?
MY COMPETITION?
DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH.
WHAT DID HE WANT?
GUESS.
HEH.
HE'S NOT GONNA BE
A PROBLEM, IS HE?
I DON'T THINK SO.
YOU SHOULD BE GLAD
I CAN'T GET UP AND
KICK YOUR ASS TO SUNDAY.
LOOK AT YOU.
YOU'RE A GODDAMN HIGH SCHOOL KID
WITH AN ACHING HEART.
IT'S NOT THAT, GIB.
I FUCKED UP, MAN.
EACH TIME THE O.S.I.
WALKED ME THROUGH
THE GODDAMN SCENE,
I WAS CHOKING ON
THE FUCKING LIES
I HAD TO FEED THEM.
SORRY.
YARNELL'S VOICE...
KEEPS NAGGING AT ME.
SHE'S DOING IT AGAIN.
I FEEL IT IN MY GUT.
OH, BULLSHIT.
YOU'RE FEELING SO GUILTY
ABOUT POKING THIS GUY'S WIFE
YOU'RE BEGINNING TO SEE
CONSPIRACIES IN YOUR CEREAL.
YOU'RE LETTING YOUR ACHING HEART
AND YOUR COCK-EYED DINGUS
LEAD YOU AROUND.
JUST LOSE THIS THING.
I WISH I COULD.
I KEEP...THINKING...
YARNELL WOULD BE ALIVE
TODAY IF I DIDN'T--
BUT YOU DID.
YOU GOT INVOLVED IN
A DOMESTIC SITUATION THAT
COULD ONLY END IN DISASTER.
DUST IT OFF
AND GO BACK TO WORK.
WELL...
PAPPY KNOWS BEST.
WALKER.
WALKER!
YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH.
THE O.S.I. REPORT CAME DOWN.
IT'S OK. AFTER I GAVE
MY STATEMENT, IT WAS A LOCK.
YOU KNEW THAT.
[ALMOST INAUDIBLY]
THANKS.

HELLO, MELISSA.
[SINGING IN SPANISH]
CAN I COME IN?
[MUSIC CONTINUES]
YOU LITTLE BITCH.
HOW DARE YOU COME HERE
ASKING FOR MONEY.
I'M ONLY ASKING FOR WHAT
WAS RIGHTFULLY FARRELL'S
IN THE FIRST PLACE.
HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT?
I'LL SETTLE FOR HALF.
HEH. YOU HAVE TO BE
JOKING. HEH.
HALF?
PUT IT IN A TRUST FUND
UNDER THE CHILDREN'S' NAMES.
I CAN'T THINK OF ONE
GOOD REASON WHY I SHOULD
GIVE YOU ANYTHING.
BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T,
I'LL CONTEST THE WILL.
I CAN TIE UP THAT MONEY
AND DRAG YOU THROUGH
THE COURTS FOR YEARS.
NOT ONLY A BITCH,
BUT A SCHEMING BITCH.
NO, MELISSA.
I'M JUST A GOOD MOTHER.
PLEASE. SPARE ME
THE SELF-RIGHTEOUS
BULLSHIT.
[EXHALES FORCEFULLY]
FINE.
[SIGHS]
I'LL HAVE THE PAPERS
DRAWN UP TOMORROW.
GREAT.
NOW, GET OUT
OF MY HOUSE.
WHY DON'T WE MEET AT
FARRELL'S CLUB TOMORROW?
GREAT. WHAT TIME?
HOW ABOUT 1:00?
FINE.
MUCH BETTER.
NOW, GET OUT OF MY HOUSE.
HEH.
GET OUT.
[DOOR CLOSES]
[WHISPERING]
Shit.
HEH.
WOMEN.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
MELISSA?
MELISSA, YOU'VE GOT
MY PAPERS IN THERE.
Melissa:
I TALKED TO HER.
SHE WANTS
HALF THE MONEY.
YEAH, SHE WAS HERE.
I THINK SHE'S GONNA
BE A PROBLEM.
OH, YOU'LL HAVE TO DO
SOMETHING ABOUT HER.
GET HER
OUT OF THE PICTURE.
GET HER OUT OF THE WAY.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
Matt: ONE SECOND.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
CAN I HELP YOU?
I'M CHARLENE LERNOUX.
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU
ABOUT MELISSA YARNELL.
WHAT ABOUT HER?
I THINK SHE IS GOING
TO TRY TO KILL ME.
WHERE'D YOU GET THIS?
WOULD YOU BELIEVE
IT WAS A BIRTHDAY PRESENT?
DO YOU REALLY EXPECT ME
TO USE THIS?
IF WE MAKE IT LOOK LIKE
A BREAK-IN, WHO WILL
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE?
COME ON.
IF WE MOVE NOW,
WE'LL STILL HAVE TIME.
WE'LL BEAT THEM
TO THE PUNCH.
AND I KNOW JUST THE MAN
WHO SHOULD HAVE A PIECE
OF THE ACTION.
WHO?
BILL TANNER.
HE WAS YARNELL'S PARTNER.
I WANT HIM
TO KNOW THE TRUTH.
Man, on machine:
THIS IS BILL TANNER.
LEAVE YOUR MESSAGE.
[BEEP]
Matt: BILL...
UH, THIS IS MATT WALKER.
I HAVE SOME IMPORTANT
INFORMATION.
PLEASE MEET ME
AT FARRELL'S CLUB.
YOU HAVE THE CROWBAR?
RIGHT HERE.
WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED,
DON'T PANIC.
JUST WALK SLOWLY
BACK TO THE CAR.
Charlene: HELLO?
MELISSA?
MELISSA!
OK, IF YOU'RE GONNA
PLAY GAMES,
I AM LEAVING.
AH!
DON'T YOU WANT YOUR MONEY?
Matt: HALPERIN!
[STRAINS]
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
ARE YOU OK?
YEAH.
[DOOR OPENS]
WE GOTTA CALL AN O.S.I TEAM.
MOVE AWAY FROM THERE
AND DROP THE GUN.
WHAT, ARE YOU DEAF?
MOVE AWAY FROM THERE
AND DROP THE GUN!
YOU DROP IT.
Bill: DON'T YOU MOVE!
I THOUGHT YOU AND YARNELL
WERE FRIENDS.
LIFE GETS COMPLICATED.
YEAH...
2 MILLION PLUS. NO WONDER.
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
TELL HIM.
IT SAYS SO IN THE WILL.
SHOOT HIM.
SHUT UP.
WITH THEM OUT OF THE
PICTURE, WE CAN HAVE IT
JUST THE WAY WE WANT IT.
I SAID SHUT UP!
TELL HIM WHO YOUR
BOYFRIEND IS, MELISSA.
[CHUCKLES]
NOBODY. I ALREADY
TOLD YOU THAT.
YOU'RE A LIAR.
I USED HIM. I HAD TO
USE HIM TO GET HER
OUT OF THE WAY.
YEAH.
THAT'S RIGHT. SHE USED HIM.
SHE USED ALL OF US.
TELL HIM, MELISSA.
[CHUCKLING]
HE'S LYING.
TELL HIM. TELL HIM!
Matt: LOOKING BACK ON IT ALL,
I GUESS THINGS ENDED UP
THE WAY THEY WERE MEANT TO.
CHARLENE SOLD THE BAR.
AT LEAST HER KIDS
ARE TAKEN CARE OF NOW.
GIBBY WENT AHEAD
WITH HIS RETIREMENT.
HE'S DOING FINE.
MY DAUGHTER FINALLY
CAME TO VISIT.
WE HAD A GREAT TIME.
OTHER THAN THAT, THINGS ARE
PRETTY MUCH THE SAME.
YOU KNOW, I HAVE THIS FEELING
I USED TO GET WHEN I WAS A KID.
I KEEP THINKING
SOMETHING'S GOT TO CHANGE.
IT'S LIKE GIBBY SAID.
I KEEP WONDERING
IF THIS IS ALL THERE IS.
MAYBE I'LL FIND OUT.
MAYBE TOMORROW.
