Benson and Stabler work with a Special Frauds Unit detective who believes that an heiress murdered her parents and could be a sociopath.
male announcer:
IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM,
SEXUALLY BASED OFFENSES ARE
CONSIDERED ESPECIALLY HEINOUS.
IN NEW YORK CITY,
THE DEDICATED DETECTIVES
WHO INVESTIGATE
THESE VICIOUS FELONIES
ARE MEMBERS
OF AN ELITE SQUAD
KNOWN AS
THE SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT.
THESE ARE THEIR STORIES.
- MORNING!
MR. AND MRS. GILLETTE!
IT'S MIKE!
UH, DO YOU WANT ME TO LOAD
THE LUGGAGE NOW?
UM, TRAFFIC'S REALLY HEAVY.
WE SHOULD BE LEAVING NOW.
[dog barking]
HELLO.
YOU FILTHY BUGGER.
YOU ARE NOT GETTING
INTO MY NICE, CLEAN CADDY
COVERED IN...
IT'S BLOOD.
MRS. GILLETTE?
UM, ARE YOU OKAY?
HELLO?
SIR?
I-IT'S MIKE.
[gasps]
- BERT AND ELAINE GILLETTE--
THE FAMILY CHAUFFER
FOUND THEM AN HOUR AGO.
MURDER-SUICIDE IS DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE, SO I CALLED YOU.
- HUSBAND OFFS HIS WIFE,
LIES DOWN BESIDE HER,
SHOOTS HIMSELF.
- BLOOD SPATTER'S CONSISTENT
WITH THAT SCENARIO.
JUST WAITING FOR WARNER
TO GET HERE AND CONFIRM.
- HEAD'S HACKED UP
PRETTY GOOD.
LOOKS LIKE AN AXE.
- WE FOUND THIS HATCHET
BY THE FIREPLACE.
THE GUN WAS ON THE BED
BY HIS HAND.
- HUBBY HAS A GUN?
WHY'D HE TURN HIS WIFE
INTO CHOPPED LIVER?
- YOU'VE NEVER BEEN MARRIED.
- MISS, YOU CAN'T
GO IN THERE.
- DON'T TELL ME
WHAT I CAN'T DO!
THEY'RE MY PARENTS.
- MS. GILLETTE...
- MOTHER.
- MS. GILLETTE...
I NEED YOU
TO WAIT OUTSIDE, OKAY?
- [sobbing]
- COME ON.
- WHAT HAPPENED?
- WE THINK YOUR FATHER
KILLED YOUR MOTHER
AND THEN TOOK HIS OWN LIFE.
- COME ON.
- OH, MOTHER,
WHY DID HE DO THIS TO YOU?
- WARNER CALLED,
SAID YOU DUCKED OUT
ON THE GILLETTE CASE
BEFORE SHE GOT THERE.
- YEAH, WE HAD TO TAKE
THE DAUGHTER HOME.
- YOU INTERVIEW HER?
- WE TRIED.
SHE WAS A BIT OF A MESS.
- LITERALLY.
- WARNER ALSO TOSSED
YOUR MURDER-SUICIDE THEORY.
THE GUNSHOT WOUND
TO DADDY WARBUCKS' HEAD
IS INCONSISTENT
WITH SELF-INFLICTION.
NO RESIDUE ON THE HAND.
- SO IT'S A DOUBLE HOMICIDE.
- AND OUR PERP
IS ON THE LOOSE.
- AND WE'RE KNEE-DEEP IN IT.
THE GILLETTES GAVE GENEROUSLY
TO THE POLICE ATHLETIC LEAGUE,
WERE MAJOR CAMPAIGN DONORS
TO THE MAYOR,
AND HAD THE POLICE COMMISSIONER
ON SPEED DIAL.
THEIR POLITICAL PALS
WILL BE CRAWLING UP MY ASS.
- IT'S NOT
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ANYMORE.
TURF IT TO HOMICIDE.
- ALREADY TRIED.
THE PC SAID THE GILLETTES
WERE SPECIAL VICTIMS.
- 'CAUSE THEY WERE RICH,
POWERFUL, AND CONNECTED.
- AND WE'RE STUCK WITH IT.
GO BACK TO THE CRIME SCENE
WITH FRESH EYES,
SEE WHAT EVIDENCE
YOU CAN FIND.
- ONE PANE OF GLASS
WAS CUT OUT.
EASY TO REACH IN
AND OPEN THE LOCK.
- YOU MISSED FORCED ENTRY.
- WE PROCESSED
THE BEDROOM FIRST.
IT LOOKED LIKE
A MURDER-SUICIDE.
- WE CAME
TO THE SAME CONCLUSION.
- WELL, THE BREAK-IN
DIDN'T TRIGGER THE ALARM.
- INDIVIDUAL PANES
AREN'T WIRED.
THEY WANTED IT TO LOOK NICE.
THEY GOT LESS SAFE.
- BUT EVEN STILL,
THE ALARM SHOULD HAVE GONE OFF
WHEN THE WINDOW WAS OPENED.
- CHECKED
WITH THE SECURITY COMPANY.
THE SYSTEM
WASN'T ARMED LAST NIGHT.
RECORDS SHOW THE GILLETTES
USUALLY SET IT AROUND 11:00.
- BEFORE THEY GO TO BED.
- THAT MAY PUT
THEIR TIME OF DEATH AT 10:00.
KILLER KNOWS THEIR ROUTINE.
- AND MUST HAVE
REALLY HATED THEM
TO HACK ONE UP
AND BLOW THE OTHER'S BRAINS OUT.
- MAYBE THE DAUGHTER
KNOWS WHO.
- MY FATHER DIDN'T DO IT?
- FORENSICS
PROVE IT CONCLUSIVELY.
I'M SORRY WE SUGGESTED IT.
- OH, I'M JUST RELIEVED.
IT MADE NO SENSE THAT DADDY
WOULD DO SOMETHING SO TERRIBLE.
- CAN YOU THINK
OF ANYONE WHO WOULD?
- I CAN'T IMAGINE ANYONE
WANTING TO HURT MY PARENTS.
THEY WERE PATRONS OF THE ARTS.
THEY GAVE MILLIONS TO CHARITY.
THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE EVEN
BEEN HERE.
- WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
- THEY WERE SUPPOSED
TO GO TO FLORIDA LAST NIGHT.
MOTHER WAS GETTING
OVER THE FLU,
AND I TOLD THEM
THAT SHE SHOULD REST ANOTHER DAY
BEFORE THEY TRAVELED.
- AND WHO ELSE KNEW THAT THEY
WERE GOING ON VACATION?
- EVERYONE.
THEY GO TO OUR HOUSE
IN SANIBEL ISLAND EVERY YEAR,
RIGHT AFTER CHRISTMAS,
AND STAY UNTIL EASTER.
- ANYONE ELSE KNOW
THAT THEY HADN'T LEFT YET?
- ME, THE STAFF,
A FEW FRIENDS.
BUT I TOLD YOU--
EVERYONE LOVED MY PARENTS.
IT MUST HAVE BEEN A BURGLAR.
- WELL, NOTHING WAS TAKEN.
AND BURGLARS,
THEY GRAB AND GO.
THEY'RE NOT GONNA HANG AROUND
AND STAGE A MURDER-SUICIDE.
THIS WAS PERSONAL.
- OH, GOD.
OH, GOD, THE KILLER
IS AFTER ME TOO.
- WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
- I WAS OUT SHOPPING
THE OTHER DAY,
AND I HAD
THIS STRANGE SENSE
THAT SOMEONE
WAS FOLLOWING ME.
AND I-I TURN AROUND,
AND I'D SEE HIM
DUCK BEHIND SOMETHING.
- CAN YOU DESCRIBE HIM?
- SUNGLASSES,
DARK HAIR--
HE WAS--HE WAS
TOO FAR AWAY FROM ME
TO GET A GOOD LOOK.
- WHEN DID YOU SEE HIM?
- WEDNESDAY.
- AND WHERE EXACTLY
DID YOU GO?
- UH, A COUPLE OF BOUTIQUES
ON MADISON,
A JEWELRY STORE,
AN ART GALLERY I ADORE--
ZANSKY-DANICH IN CHELSEA.
- MS. GILLETTE--
LOVELY WOMAN.
EXQUISITE TASTE.
- AND SHE WAS HERE
ON WEDNESDAY?
- AND MONDAY.
IF SHE'S NOT BUYING
SOMETHING NEW,
SHE'S SELLING SOMETHING
FROM HER PERSONAL COLLECTION.
IN THE LAST YEAR,
SHE ACQUIRED A DZUBAS
AND SOLD US A ROTHKO.
- SO YOU WOULD DESCRIBE HER
AS A GOOD CUSTOMER.
- THESE DAYS, A GOOD CUSTOMER
IS ANYONE WHO EVEN WINDOW-SHOPS
AND SPENDS MONEY,
LOTS OF IT.
- THAT'S UNFORTUNATE.
- THAT'S AN INSTALLATION PIECE.
PATRICE COMES TO US
FROM THE SAATCHI IN LONDON.
TALENT LIKE HERS IS VERY RARE.
- I'LL BET.
- SO WEDNESDAY,
WHEN MS. GILLETTE DROPPED BY,
UM, YOU SAW HER COME IN?
- I OPENED THE DOOR MYSELF.
- ANYONE COME IN AFTER HER?
- NO, IT WAS
A QUIET AFTERNOON.
TWO OR THREE OTHER CLIENTS,
BUT NO ONE I DIDN'T KNOW.
- WOULD YOU MIND
LETTING US TAKE A LOOK
AT YOUR SECURITY TAPES?
- WE DON'T HAVE ANY.
SPENDING A MILLION DOLLARS
IS A VERY PRIVATE EXPERIENCE,
ESPECIALLY FOR SOME
OF OUR MORE ECCENTRIC CLIENTS.
THEY DON'T WANT
A HARD SELL.
- OR CAMERAS RECORDING
THEIR SPENDING HABITS.
- HELL, YES, WE GOT CAMERAS.
THE SMALLER THEY MAKE 'EM,
THE MORE WE INSTALL.
MY BROTHER RUNS OUR SECURITY
IN THE BACK.
RIGHT NOW HE'S PROBABLY
EYEBALLING YOU
ON A DOZEN DIFFERENT SCREENS.
- HE EYEBALL
ANNE GILLETTE RECENTLY?
- ANNIE?
OF COURSE.
SAW HER JUST THE OTHER DAY.
- SHE'S A REGULAR?
- AND A VERY CLASSY LADY.
OLD SCHOOL, YOU KNOW?
GLAMOROUS.
LOVES TO BUY ICE.
LOVES TO WEAR IT.
BEST OF ALL,
LOVES TO PAY FOR IT IN CASH,
LIKE SHE DID
WHEN SHE WAS IN ON WEDNESDAY.
BOUGHT ONE OF THESE
BEAUTIFUL DIAMOND-ENCRUSTED
LADY BULGARIS.
- UH, WHEN ANNIE
WAS IN HERE THE OTHER DAY,
YOU NOTICE ANYONE
FOLLOWING HER?
- THERE WAS A FELLOW--
DARK-SKINNED.
DON'T TELL ME ANNIE
WAS MUGGED.
- NO, NO, NO.
MS. GILLETTE IS FINE.
BUT SOMEONE MAY HAVE
BEEN TAILING HER.
- WHICH IS WHY
WE'D LIKE TO SEE
YOUR SECURITY FOOTAGE
FROM WEDNESDAY.
- I'LL DO YOU ONE BETTER.
THE WHOLE SHEBANG'S
DIGITIZED.
I'LL BURN YOU A DISK.
- I THINK THAT COULD BE HIM.
- WELL, WE'VE GOT THAT SAME MAN
ON SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS
FROM THREE OF THE SHOPS
THAT YOU VISITED ON WEDNESDAY.
- HE FOLLOWED YOU IN.
HE BOUGHT NOTHING.
AND HE LEFT 30 SECONDS
AFTER YOU DID.
- SO I WAS RIGHT.
HE WAS WATCHING ME.
HE MUST HAVE FOLLOWED ME
TO MY PARENTS' HOUSE
AND KILLED THEM.
- WHY DO YOU THINK
HE TARGETED YOUR FAMILY?
- MY PICTURE'S
ALWAYS IN THE PAPER.
I ATTRACT
ALL KINDS OF ATTENTION
FROM MEN
WHO WANT MY MONEY.
HOW ARE YOU EVER
GOING TO FIND HIM?
- WE KNOW WHERE
HE'S GONNA BE TOMORROW...
FOLLOWING YOU.
- YOU WANT TO USE ME...
AS BAIT.
I'LL HIRE BODYGUARDS.
- NO, DON'T.
THAT'LL SPOOK YOUR SHADOW.
- YOU'RE ASKING ME
TO LURE HIM OUT, UNPROTECTED.
- WE WILL BE WITH YOU
EVERYWHERE YOU GO.
AND WHEN WE SEE HIM,
WE'LL GRAB HIM.
- THE AFRICAN-MAHOGANY CASKETS
WILL BE FINE,
BUT THE HANDLES
MUST BE SOLID BRONZE.
- WE'LL NEED
TO SPECIAL ORDER THEM.
- THEN DO IT.
MAKE EVERYTHING PERFECT.
THEY'RE MY PARENTS.
- OF COURSE, MS. GILLETTE.
I'LL SEE TO IT MYSELF.
- SPOT HIM YET?
- NO SIGN.
- HE COULD HARDLY FOLLOW HER
INTO THE FUNERAL HOME.
WHAT'S HE GONNA DO, PRETEND
HE'S SHOPPING FOR COFFINS?
- MAYBE HE MADE US
AT THE CEMETERY OR THE FLORIST.
- IN THESE OUTFITS?
- OLIVIA, I NEED YOU TO PLACE
SOME CALLS FOR ME.
- SEE? EVEN SHE FORGOT
WE'RE COPS.
LOOK, I'M GETTING SICK
OF THIS PLAYACTING.
IF HE'S FOLLOWING HER,
WE WOULD HAVE SEEN HIM BY NOW.
- WE GOT ONE MORE STOP.
- AS FOR THE HYMNS,
YOUR MOTHER WAS PARTICULARLY
FOND OF ROCK OF AGES
AND ABIDE WITH ME.
- FINE.
- EL, I'VE GOT MOVEMENT
AT 3:00.
- ANNE, YOU LOOK PALE.
YOU NEED TO REST.
IS THERE SOMEPLACE PRIVATE
YOU COULD TAKE US?
- I'M FINE, OLIVIA.
PLEASE DON'T FUSS.
- HOW MANY PALLBEARERS
ARE CUSTOMARY?
- HEY!
POLICE--FREEZE.
TURN AROUND.
- THAT'S HIM!
- GUN!
- GET HER OUT OF HERE!
- OH, MY GOD,
PLEASE DON'T LET HIM KILL ME!
- LET'S GO, LET'S GO.
- DON'T MOVE.
- [British accent]
IN THE RIGHT INSIDE POCKET,
YOU'LL FIND SOMETHING
OF INTEREST.
- YOU ON THE JOB?
- ASHOK RAMSEY,
SPECIAL FRAUDS.
- MM-HMM.
TURN AROUND.
- WHY ARE YOU TAILING
ANNE GILLETTE?
- BECAUSE SHE'S A KILLER.
DIDN'T YOU KNOW?
- I'VE BEEN TAILING
ANNE GILLETTE
FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS.
- YOU DID A LOUSY JOB.
YOU GOT MADE BY A LADY
WHO LUNCHES.
- WHO'S BEEN LEADING
YOU AND YOUR PARTNER
ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE.
- DID YOU SEE HER
MURDER HER PARENTS?
- I WASN'T FOLLOWING HER
THAT NIGHT.
MY CASE FOCUSED
ON HER DAYTIME ACTIVITIES.
- WELL, LET'S TALK
ABOUT THOSE.
ACCORDING TO YOUR C.O.,
SPECIAL FRAUDS
HAS NO OPEN INVESTIGATION
INTO ANNE GILLETTE.
- IT'S OFF THE BOOKS.
- BY WHOSE AUTHORITY?
- THE CHIEF OF DETECTIVES.
- YOU'RE RUNNING A SHADOW OP?
- THAT'S WHAT THE MAYOR WANTS.
- HIZZONER
AND THE CHIEF OF Ds, HUH?
YOU'RE, UH,
PRETTY WELL CONNECTED.
- NOT AS WELL AS THE GILLETTES.
I HAD TO INVESTIGATE ANNE
SUB ROSA,
SO HER FAMILY
COULDN'T QUASH THE CASE.
- WHY WERE YOU AFTER HER?
- FOR EMBEZZLEMENT.
- THE GILLETTE FORTUNE
WASN'T ENOUGH?
- ANNE HAS EXPENSIVE TASTES.
HER TRUST FUND RAN OUT,
SO SHE USED HER SEAT ON
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION BOARD
TO SUPPLEMENT HER INCOME--
STOLE $3.5 MILLION.
- WELL, THAT WOULD KEEP,
UH, MISS THING IN DIAMONDS
FOR QUITE A WHILE.
THIS IS FOR YOUR SCRAPBOOK.
YOU GOT ENOUGH PROOF
THAT SHE DID THAT?
- NOT YET.
BUT WHEN I SHOW YOU MY FILE,
I THINK YOU'LL BE CONVINCED.
- SO YOU CAN MAKE HER
FOR A THIEF.
THAT'S A BIG JUMP TO MURDER.
- IS IT?
SHE'S THE SOLE HEIR
TO HER PARENTS' ESTATE.
IT'S WORTH OVER $200 MILLION.
- WELL, THAT'S
A LOT OF MOTIVE.
SHE'S BROKE, DESPERATE,
AND ALL THAT MONEY
IS JUST OUT OF HER REACH.
- YOU'RE NOT IN CUFFS.
LET ME GUESS--
ONE OF US?
- LIV, ASH RAMSEY,
SPECIAL FRAUDS.
- OH, SO WE REALLY DO HAVE
A MODERN-DAY LIZZIE BORDEN.
- ONLY THIS TIME,
MOMMY ONLY GOT TEN WHACKS.
- [scoffs]
HOW DID YOU GET ONTO HER?
- MY OFFICE IS AT ONE P.P.
I'LL CATCH YOU UP
ON THE WAY DOWNTOWN.
- ANNE TRIED OUT THREE TIMES
FOR THE OLYMPIC
EQUESTRIAN TEAM...
UNSUCCESSFULLY.
SHE THEN OPENED
AN ART GALLERY,
WHICH CLOSED AFTER SHE FORGOT
TO PAY TAXES FOR FIVE YEARS,
FOLLOWED BY A STINT
AS AN INTERIOR DECORATOR
THAT RESULTED
IN SIX LAWSUITS--
ALL OF THEM SETTLED PRIVATELY.
- IT SOUNDS LIKE
SHE HASN'T FOUND HERSELF,
BUT WHY WOULD
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION
WANT HER ON THE BOARD?
- DADDY GAVE THEM $10 MILLION.
- I GOT MY DAUGHTER A JOB AT
TARGET, DIDN'T COST ME A DIME.
- I'M SURE YOUR DAUGHTER'S
MORE QUALIFIED
TO SIT ON
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION BOARD.
ANNE WAS DISCREETLY KICKED OUT
OF THREE PREP SCHOOLS.
SHE FINALLY GRADUATED
FROM A GIRL'S FINISHING SCHOOL
IN SWITZERLAND,
WHERE SHE RECEIVED CREDIT
FOR FLOWER ARRANGING.
- SO POOR LITTLE RICH GIRL
CAN'T CUT IT IN THE REAL WORLD,
BUT SHE'S SMART ENOUGH
TO STEAL $3 1/2 MILLION.
THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.
- DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ANNE.
SHE'S INCREDIBLY SMART.
BUT SHE DOESN'T PLAY
BY THE RULES.
- HOW'D SHE SCAM
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION?
- THEIR RECORD KEEPING
IS ABYSMAL--
NO COMPUTERIZED FILES.
THEY JUST WRITE CHECKS
TO DESERVING ORGANIZATIONS.
- I'LL SAY.
$300,000
FOR THE BED-STUY ART LEAGUE.
500K TO THE WASHINGTON HEIGHTS
CHILDREN ORCHESTRA?
WELL, MAYBE SHE'S JUST
OVERLY GENEROUS.
- NONE OF THESE
ORGANIZATIONS EXIST.
BANK ACCOUNTS
WERE OPENED FOR EACH
WITH FORGED DOCUMENTS,
THE FUNDS DEPOSITED.
- AND THE CASH WITHDRAWN
AS SOON AS THE CHECKS CLEAR.
- THE FOUNDATION DIDN'T NOTICE
UNTIL MR. PRESTWICK
MADE A VISIT TO
THE CHINATOWN FOLKLORIC BALLET
AND WOUND UP IN A PET SHOP.
THEY WERE EMBARRASSED
AND WANTED A QUIET INVESTIGATION
SO AS NOT TO SCARE OFF
FUTURE DONORS.
- ANYONE AT THE BANK
I.D. ANNE?
- NO, THE ACCOUNTS WERE ALL
OPENED BY A WHITE MAN, 40s...
OTHERWISE UNMEMORABLE.
- WELL, HER ACCOMPLICE
HAD TO HAVE SHOWN I.D.
PATRIOT ACT
REQUIRES VERIFICATION
OF ALL THE ACCOUNT HOLDERS.
- BUT WITH A CHARITY,
ALL YOU NEED
ARE THE 501-C3 PAPERS.
- HOW'D YOU KNOW
ANNE WAS DIRTY?
- THE FRAUD BEGAN
AS SOON AS SHE JOINED THE BOARD.
RIGHT AFTER EACH PHONY CHECK
WAS CASHED,
SHE WENT ON SHOPPING SPREES.
I'VE BEEN TRACKING
HER SPENDING.
SHE'S ALMOST OUT OF FUNDS.
- SO YOU'VE BEEN TAILING HER,
HOPING SHE'D GO BACK
TO HER ACCOMPLICE FOR A TOP-UP.
- BUT SHE COULDN'T--
SHE KNEW YOU WERE FOLLOWING HER,
MUST HAVE REALIZED
THE FOUNDATION WAS ON TO HER.
- MAYBE SHE WENT
TO MOMMY AND DADDY FOR MONEY.
THEY SAID NO.
SHE OFFED 'EM.
- CLASSIC RED-COLLAR CRIME.
WHEN SOME WHITE-COLLAR CRIMINALS
ARE CONFRONTED
OR FEAR THEY'RE
ABOUT TO BE CAUGHT,
THEY CAN TURN VIOLENT.
MOST COMMON TARGETS
ARE THE PARENTS.
- RAMSEY!
GET OUT HERE!
- ONLY TIME I HEAR
THAT VOICE
IS WHEN I'M ABOUT
TO BE BENT OVER.
- CHIEF MULDREW...
AND MR. PRESTWICK--
IT'S A PLEASURE.
- SUSPEND YOUR INVESTIGATION
INTO THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION.
- BUT, SIR--
- THE MONEY'S BEEN REPLACED.
A BOARD MEMBER HEARD
OF OUR PREDICAMENT,
PLEDGED TO COVER OUR LOSSES.
- ANNE GILLETTE.
- THE DONOR WISHES
TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS.
- SIR, A CRIME
WAS STILL COMMITTED.
- IT'S ALL BEEN
A MISUNDERSTANDING.
- AND MR. PRESTWICK WOULD LIKE
THE FOUNDATION'S FILES BACK.
LOAD UP THE RECORDS.
WHAT'S SPECIAL VICTIMS
DOING DOWN HERE?
- WE'RE JUST HITTING UP ASH
TO JOIN US IN A FOURSOME,
A LITTLE GOLF TOURNAMENT--
SVU VERSUS NASSAU SEX CRIMES.
- OH, WELL, RAMSEY WOULD MAKE
A HELL OF A RINGER.
- ARE YOU SURE
YOU WOULDN'T LIKE A FULL REPORT
OF MY FINDINGS?
- IT'S NOT NECESSARY.
I'M SO SORRY
WE TROUBLED YOU.
- GOOD LUCK ON THE LINKS.
- THAT'S SIX MONTHS OF HARD WORK
GOING DOWN THE TOILET.
- CHIEF OF Ds
DIDN'T SHUT DOWN OUR CASE.
YOU WANT TO NAIL
ANNE GILLETTE?
WORK WITH US ON IT.
- THE MINUTE YOU QUESTION HER,
MULDREW WILL PAY
YOUR SQUAD A VISIT.
- NOT IF WE QUESTION HER
AS A VICTIM.
LADY DID SAY
SHE HAD A STALKER.
- AND WE CAUGHT YOU.
- I'M SO GLAD
YOU ARRESTED HIM.
DO YOU THINK
HE KILLED MY PARENTS?
- I DO, BUT IT WOULD HELP US
NAIL HIM
IF YOU COULD ANSWER
SOME QUESTIONS.
- ANYTHING YOU WANT TO KNOW.
WELL, THIS IS GRIM.
I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU WORK
UNDER THESE CONDITIONS.
- BUDGET CUTS.
WE'RE USED TO IT.
BUT WE'RE LOSING A LOT
OF DOMESTIC-VIOLENCE
SHELTER BEDS,
COUNSELING FOR RAPE VICTIMS.
- PERHAPS I CAN ARRANGE
FOR A GRANT
IN MY PARENTS' NAME.
- WELL,
THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL.
BUT, OF COURSE,
FIRST WE'D HAVE TO CONVICT
YOUR PARENTS' KILLER
TO AVOID
ANY CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
- OF COURSE.
SO YOU ARE CHARGING HIM
WITH MURDER.
- OH, I'D LOVE TO,
BUT WE DON'T HAVE
ENOUGH EVIDENCE.
- BUT YOU HAVE HIM ON TAPE
AT THE STORES WHERE I WAS.
I MEAN, I-I-IT CAN'T BE
A COINCIDENCE.
- NO, BUT WE HAVE NOTHING
TYING HIM TO YOUR PARENTS' HOUSE
OR TO THEIR MURDERS.
YOU DON'T HAVE
ANY FINGERPRINTS? NO DNA?
- HE MUST HAVE WORN GLOVES.
- THIS IS TERRIBLE.
- WELL, DON'T WORRY,
MS. GILLETTE.
HOMICIDE CASES NEVER CLOSE.
SO IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME...
BUT WE WILL CONVICT
YOUR PARENTS' KILLER.
- I KNOW HE DID IT.
I JUST WISH THERE WAS SOME WAY
WE COULD PROVE IT.
- YOU SAID THAT YOUR PARENTS
NEVER MENTIONED
BEING FOLLOWED OR WATCHED.
- NOT TO ME.
- UH-HUH.
IS THERE ANYBODY
THAT THEY MAY HAVE TOLD?
- OUR BUSINESS MANAGER,
NATE HARTMAN.
HE HANDLES
ALL OF OUR FAMILY'S AFFAIRS.
- I'LL TALK TO HIM.
- YES, UM...
LET ME CALL HIM FIRST.
HE'S A REAL STICKLER
ABOUT CONFIDENTIALITY.
YOU CAN RING NATE
IN THE MORNING
AFTER I'VE SPOKEN WITH HIM.
I'M VERY TIRED.
I'D LIKE TO GO HOME NOW.
- WELL, LET ME DRIVE YOU.
UM, WE CAN FINISH UP
OUR QUESTIONS ON THE WAY THERE.
- YOUR PARTNER'S GOOD.
- ANNE SEEMS PRETTY CONFIDENT
NATE WILL LIE FOR HER--
GOT TO BE HER ACCOMPLICE.
- BUSINESS MANAGER
WOULD KNOW HOW TO EXPLOIT
THE FOUNDATION'S
PRIMITIVE ACCOUNTING
AND OPEN DUMMY ACCOUNTS.
- LET'S HIT HIM BEFORE THEY GET
THEIR STORIES STRAIGHT.
- WHAT'S THE EMERGENCY?
IS ANNE OKAY?
- YOU SEEM WORRIED ABOUT HER.
HAVE, UH, YOU TALKED
TO HER TONIGHT?
- NO. BUT I'M CONCERNED
ABOUT HER SAFETY,
AFTER WHAT HAPPENED
TO BERT AND ELAINE.
- DO YOU KNOW
ALL THE GORY DETAILS?
- JUST THAT THEY WERE MURDERED
IN THEIR BEDS BY BURGLARS.
THAT'S WHAT ANNE TOLD ME.
- AND YOU ALWAYS BELIEVE
WHAT ANNE SAYS.
- OF COURSE.
UH, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
- IN A SHORT WHILE,
YOUR PHONE WILL RING.
ANNE IS GOING TO ASK YOU
TO LIE FOR HER.
- ANNE WOULD NEVER DO THAT.
SHE'S A GENTLE SOUL.
SHE'S SCRUPULOUSLY HONEST.
- WHO'S BEEN ROBBING THE
PRESTWICK FOUNDATION BLIND...
WITH YOUR HELP.
[phone ringing]
- NATE, IT'S OVER.
- UHH...
- YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL.
- UNLESS YOU ANSWER THAT PHONE
AND DO EXACTLY WHAT WE SAY.
- PUT IT ON SPEAKER.
[beep]
- HELLO, ANNE?
- NATE, IT'S SO HORRIBLE.
THE POLICE KNOW
WHO KILLED MY PARENTS,
BUT THEY DON'T HAVE
ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO ARREST HIM.
YOU HAVE TO SAY YOU SAW HIM
FOLLOWING THEM.
- ANNE--
- JUST LISTEN.
YOU'LL DESCRIBE HIM.
INDIAN, DARK HAIR,
WELL-DRESSED,
MENACING, DANGEROUS.
YOU SAW HIM
WATCHING THE HOUSE.
BERT AND ELAINE
SAW HIM TOO.
THEY WERE FRIGHTENED.
THEY ASKED YOU FOR ADVICE.
- YOU WANT ME TO LIE?
- I WANT JUSTICE
FOR MY PARENTS,
AND YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE
WHO CAN DELIVER IT.
I WILL SEE YOU TOMORROW,
DARLING, AT THE FUNERAL.
[beep]
- NOW WHAT HAPPENS?
- YOU TALK.
WE LISTEN.
- SHE TOLD ME
IT WAS A TAX DODGE,
THAT THE FOUNDATION KNEW.
I DIDN'T KNOW
SHE WAS STEALING.
YOU GOT TO BELIEVE ME.
- YOU DON'T HAVE TO CONVINCE ME,
JUST A GRAND JURY...
THE D.A., A JUDGE.
- I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.
- WHY'D YOU DO IT, NATE?
- I LOVED HER.
AND I THOUGHT SHE LOVED ME.
- WE GOT HER.
- ON AN EMBEZZLEMENT CASE
THAT WAS SHUT DOWN
SIX HOURS AGO.
WE STILL DON'T HAVE
ANNE GILLETTE FOR MURDER.
- WE HEARD HER
TELL NATE HARTMAN TO LIE.
- SHE CAN CLAIM
SHE WAS DISTRAUGHT,
AFRAID THAT THE MAN
SHE BELIEVED MURDERED
HER PARENTS WOULD WALK.
- WHO ARE YOU, CABOT?
- JUST KEEP WORKING
THE HOMICIDE.
- RIGHT, AND SHE GETS WIND,
SHE'S GONNA BUY HERSELF
A PRIVATE ISLAND
AND FIGHT EXTRADITION
UNTIL WE'VE RETIRED.
- CAPTAIN,
LET US PICK HER UP
BEFORE YOU GET THE CALL
TELLING US TO STAND DOWN.
- CHARGE HER WITH WITNESS
TAMPERING AND MAKE A SPLASH.
ANNE WON'T BE ABLE
TO HUSH THIS UP
IF IT'S ALL OVER
THE FRONT PAGE.
- IT WAS A LOVELY SERVICE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
- THIS IS VERY BAD TIMING,
DETECTIVES.
WE'RE ON OUR WAY
TO THE GRAVE SITE.
- WITH A STOP AT THE TOMBS.
- YOU'RE A COP?
- ANNE GILLETTE,
YOU'RE UNDER ARREST
FOR OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE,
WITNESS TAMPERING.
- WHAT WITNESS?
- NATE HARTMAN.
- YOU BITCH.
YOU SET ME UP.
- YOU HAVE THE RIGHT
TO REMAIN SILENT.
ANYTHING YOU SAY CAN
AND WILL BE USED...
- ANNE LAWYER UP?
- NO.
BUT HALF THE SOCIAL REGISTER
SAW US COLLAR HER.
SOMEBODY'S GONNA
CALL HER LAWYER.
- BETTER GET IN THERE
BEFORE HE SHOWS UP.
- ANY IDEAS
ON HOW TO PLAY HER?
- SHE'S A SOCIOPATH,
SO SHE'LL WANT CONTROL.
- SO WE WON'T GIVE HER ANY.
- NO, GIVE IT TO HER,
IN SPADES.
MAKE HER FEEL COMFORTABLE.
- SO SHE SLIPS UP.
- CAPTAIN CRAGEN!
- OVER HERE, QUICK.
- YOUR PET COPS
FINALLY WENT OFF THE DEEP END.
ARRESTING ANNE GILLETTE
AT HER PARENTS' FUNERAL?
- THEY WERE OBEYING
MY DIRECT ORDER, SIR.
- YOU KNEW I ORDERED
DETECTIVE RAMSEY
TO CLOSE HIS CASE.
- I DIDN'T THINK THAT TRUMPED
A DOUBLE HOMICIDE.
- THIS ISN'T A MOMENT
FOR YOU TO THINK.
YOUR DETECTIVES DIDN'T ARREST
ANNE GILLETTE FOR MURDER.
PENNY-ANTE WITNESS TAMPERING
IS ALL I HEARD.
- FOR NOW.
- AND YOU CAN PROVE
THAT SHE'S THE KILLER?
- NOT YET.
- THEN WHY THE HELL
DID YOU ARREST HER
IN THE MIDDLE
OF PARK AVENUE?
- SHE'S DANGEROUS.
- IS THAT YOUR CLINICAL OPINION,
DR. HUANG?
- DO YOU WANT ME
TO USE BIGGER WORDS?
FINE, SHE'S A PSYCHOPATH
WITH EXTREMELY VIOLENT--
- STOP SHOWING OFF.
[sighs]
- BRING HER DOWN FOR MURDER,
AND I'LL BACK YOUR PLAY.
BUT...SCREW THE POOCH,
AND I'M GONNA LET
THE CRAP ROLL DOWNHILL.
- THEY BETTER CRACK HER,
OR WE'RE GONNA HAVE
A LOT OF SHOVELING TO DO.
[door closes]
- THREE AGAINST ONE?
YOU ALL HARDLY PLAY FAIR.
- LET'S TALK ANYWAY.
- TO YOU TWO?
CERTAINLY NOT.
JUST HIM.
SHOO.
[door closes]
- WE HAVEN'T BEEN
FORMALLY INTRODUCED.
ANNE GILLETTE.
- ASHOK RAMSEY.
- RAMSEY.
IS YOUR MOTHER SANA RAMSEY?
- YES.
- YOU HAVE HER EYES.
WE USED TO RUN INTO EACH OTHER
ALL THE TIME IN LONDON...
MUTUAL FRIENDS.
- I'LL PASS ON YOUR REGARDS.
- WHO IS THIS GUY?
- NO, YOU WON'T.
YOU HAVEN'T SPOKEN IN YEARS.
WHY IS THAT?
- OVERSEAS CALLS
ARE EXPENSIVE.
- NOT ANYMORE.
AND YOU COULD AFFORD IT,
EVEN IF THEY WERE.
- WHY ARE YOU
SO INTERESTED IN ME?
- BECAUSE WE'RE TWO OF A KIND--
THE PRODIGAL CHILDREN.
- WE'RE NOTHING ALIKE.
- AREN'T WE?
YOU CAME ACROSS THE POND
TO ESCAPE YOUR FAMILY,
SLUMMING AS A COP,
PRETENDING TO BE SOMEONE ELSE.
I KNOW ALL ABOUT IT, DARLING.
AND SOONER OR LATER,
YOU'LL FLY BACK TO THE NEST.
- AND KILL MY PARENTS,
LIKE YOU KILLED YOURS?
- OH.
[chuckles]
THE SHRINKS
HAVE A WORD FOR THAT--
PROJECTION.
- I DON'T WISH
MY PARENTS DEAD.
- OH, DROP THE ACT.
WE ALL DO.
IT'S A TERRIBLE BURDEN,
GROWING UP RICH.
THEY GIVE US TOO MUCH,
THEY GIVE US TOO LITTLE.
BUT IN THE END,
THERE'S ALL THAT MONEY WAITING
WHEN THEY'RE DEAD.
- AND YOU WERE TIRED
OF WAITING.
- TIRED--YES.
BUT ONLY TIRED.
YOU WILL FIND
PLENTY OF WITNESSES
THAT WILL TELL YOU
I SPOKE OF BEING FRUSTRATED,
BUT SO IS PRINCE CHARLES,
AND HE HASN'T OFFED
HIS MOTHER...
YET.
- I DON'T COVET
WHAT MY PARENTS HAVE.
- YOU'RE STILL LIVING
IN THAT ADOLESCENT PLACE,
WHERE YOU REJECT THEIR WORLD,
TRYING TO PROVE
THAT YOU'RE YOUR OWN MAN.
BUT SOONER OR LATER,
THEY WILL LURE YOU BACK IN.
YOUR MOTHER IS...
QUITE SEDUCTIVE.
- YOU KNOW NOTHING.
- I KNOW MORE THAN YOU THINK.
- THAT LADY LIKES
TO PLAY WITH HER FOOD.
- BEFORE SHE STARTS
TAKING BITES.
- HER ATTORNEY'S HERE,
AND I DON'T THINK HE'S USED
TO SEEING HIS CLIENT
LOCKED IN A CAGE.
- I'M YANCEY WINTHROP,
MS. GILLETTE'S COUNSEL.
- YOU'RE WELCOME TO HER.
- FIRST, I'D LIKE A FEW WORDS
WITH YOU TWO.
- SAVE YOUR SPEECH
ABOUT HOW WELL-CONNECTED SHE IS.
I DON'T GIVE A DAMN.
YOU GOT TEN MINUTES BEFORE
I TAKE HER TO CENTRAL BOOKING.
- WHERE'S MY CLIENT?
- RIGHT THIS WAY.
- I SUPPOSE I SHOULD EXPLAIN.
- LOOK, NO NEED.
I HATE THE BITCH
AS MUCH AS YOU DO.
- IT'S HARDLY WORTH
BOOKING HER.
TWO MISDEMEANORS
FOR WITNESS TAMPERING?
SHE'LL WALTZ
OUT OF ARRAIGNMENTS ON LOW BAIL
THE MINUTE THE JUDGE GAVELS.
- WELL, WE GOT NOTHING
ON THE MURDER.
- WE COULD GET A FELONY CHARGE
IF NIGEL PRESTWICK COOPERATES
ON THE EMBEZZLEMENT.
- OKAY. DOES HE HAVE
ANY WEAKNESSES WE CAN LEVERAGE?
- HE'S A MILQUETOAST--
TYPICAL FIFTH-GENERATION
WASP ELITE.
INBREEDING'S
MELTED THEIR BRAINS.
- THERE'S GOT TO BE SOMETHING.
I MEAN, IS HE A TAX CHEAT,
A PHILANDERER?
- JUST A CHEAPSKATE.
NIGEL BILLS ALL HIS PERSONAL
EXPENSES TO THE FOUNDATION.
IT PAYS HIS DUES AT
THE YALE CLUB, THE CENTURY CLUB,
AND SOMETHING CALLED
THE DONATIEN SOCIETY.
WHAT DID I MISS?
- UH, MR. MILQUETOAST
IS NOT SO VANILLA.
HOLD OFF ON TRANSPORTING ANNE.
LET'S GO TALK TO PRESTWICK.
- I TOLD YOU, DETECTIVE,
I CAN'T PRESS CHARGES,
OUT OF RESPECT
FOR BERT GILLETTE'S--
- SHH, LET'S CUT
TO THE CHASE, NIGEL.
MAY I CALL YOU NIGEL?
YOU SEE, NIGEL,
I KNOW THAT MEN HAVE NEEDS.
BUT WHEN A WIFE
CAN'T FILL THOSE NEEDS,
MEN HAVE TO LOOK ELSEWHERE.
- YES.
- BUT SOMETIMES
THOSE NEEDS...
ARE MISUNDERSTOOD...
JUDGED UNFAIRLY BY SOCIETY.
ON YOUR KNEES, WORM.
NOW!
GET UP.
- [whimpers]
- YOU OWE ME
A NEW PAIR OF BOOTS.
- THIS PICTURE'S WORTH
TEN PAIRS OF PRADA.
- PLEASE...DELETE IT.
- I WILL...
AFTER YOU PRESS CHARGES ON
ANNE GILLETTE FOR EMBEZZLEMENT.
- YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE ASKING OF ME.
THE SCANDAL
WILL RUIN THE FOUNDATION.
DONORS WILL LOSE RESPECT FOR--
- YOUR WIFE IS GONNA
LOSE RESPECT FOR YOU
AFTER SHE FINDS OUT
ABOUT YOUR DIRTY LITTLE FETISH.
YOU THINK YOU'RE
PRETTY CLEVER THERE,
NAMING YOUR SECRET SOCIETY
AFTER THE MARQUIS DE SADE?
DONATIEN ALPHONSE FRANCOIS?
- YOU CAN PROTECT ANNE,
OR YOU CAN SAVE YOUR OWN SKIN,
BUT YOU CAN'T DO BOTH.
- YOU SEE, BECAUSE LAST YEAR,
WE ARRESTED TWO SADISTS
WHO WERE MEMBERS
OF YOUR LITTLE CLUB.
AND I REMEMBER,
WE SEIZED A WHOLE LOT OF VIDEOS.
YOU KNOW, WE SHOULD CHECK
THE EVIDENCE LOCKER
TO SEE IF OUR FRIEND
NIGEL HERE IS ON TAPE,
BECAUSE I SPECIFICALLY REMEMBER
THERE WAS ONE ON NAZI ROLE--
- ENOUGH!
I'LL DO IT.
- I THOUGHT SO.
AT LEAST WE GOT ANNE
ON A FELONY EMBEZZLEMENT CHARGE.
- NOT THE WORLD'S BEST CASE.
PRESTWICK TOLD THE CHIEF OF Ds
IT WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING.
DEFENSE COUNSEL
WILL CALL THAT A RECANT.
- WE'VE GOT
THE BUSINESS MANAGER.
- NATE HARTMAN'S
A COCONSPIRATOR,
SO HIS TESTIMONY
REQUIRES CORROBORATION,
UNLESS WE GO FEDERAL.
- DID YOU GO TO LAW SCHOOL?
- LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS.
- NOT A LOT
OF MBAs ON THIS JOB.
- ECONOMICS AND MATHEMATICS
IMPOSE ORDER ON CHAOS.
- LIKE POLICE WORK.
LEARNING SOMETHING NEW
ABOUT YOU ALL THE TIME.
- I MET THIS WOMAN
FROM THE U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE
AT THE OPERA.
I'VE BEEN MEANING TO CALL HER.
- GOOD THING YOU DIDN'T ASK ME
TO TAKE THIS CASE A YEAR AGO.
AFTER 9/11, ALL OUR MANPOWER
WENT TO ANTITERRORISM.
- THE U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE
HAS JURISDICTION
OVER BANK FRAUD.
YOU'RE ALL WE HAVE LEFT.
- HOW SOLID'S YOUR EVIDENCE?
- I SPENT SIX MONTHS
ON A FORENSIC ACCOUNTING
OF THE FOUNDATION'S BOOKS.
I'VE GOT AFFIDAVITS
FROM EVERY BANK,
PLUS A MATCH
BETWEEN EMBEZZLED CASH
AND ANNE GILLETTE'S
EXPENDITURES.
- AND THERE'S THE RUB.
- YOU DON'T WANT TO GO
AFTER ANNE GILLETTE.
- HER PARENTS HAVE GIVEN
MILLIONS TO POLITICIANS.
- HER DEAD PARENTS,
WHO SHE KILLED.
- WHICH YOU CAN'T PROVE.
- BUT WE WILL, AND WHEN WE DO,
YOU CAN FOLD THE HOMICIDE
RIGHT INTO YOUR CASE.
SHE TRIED TO COVER UP THE THEFT
WITH HER PARENTS' CASH.
THE CASES
ARE INEXTRICABLY LINKED.
- HOMICIDE'S THE BIG SHOW.
BUT THEY'RE USUALLY
STATE CASES.
DO YOU KNOW
HOW MANY FEDERAL PROSECUTORS
GO THEIR ENTIRE CAREER
WITHOUT EVER TRYING A MURDER?
- GIVE ME THE FILES.
I'LL DRAFT A WRIT
MOVING ANNE GILLETTE
INTO FEDERAL CUSTODY.
- THANK YOU, CAMILLA.
- AND SHE'LL SPEND
THE NIGHT AT RIKERS.
YOU CAN MOVE HER DOWN
TO MCC TOMORROW.
- I'LL GIVE ELLIOT
THE GOOD NEWS.
- READY TO GO?
- DON'T TOUCH ME.
- YOU WANT TO EXPLAIN THE DRILL
TO HER HIGHNESS?
- ANNE, DEAR, IT'LL ALL BE OVER
IN A COUPLE OF HOURS.
WE'LL POST BAIL--
- YEAH, NO, I DOUBT THAT.
WORD IS THAT
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION
HAD A CHANGE OF HEART.
- NIGEL TURN AGAINST ME?
NEVER.
- WELL, MY PARTNER
CAN BE PRETTY PERSUASIVE.
YOU'RE BEING ARRAIGNED
ON FELONY BANK FRAUD,
WHICH MEANS
IT'S OFF TO RIKERS WITH YOU.
- YOU'RE NOT PUTTING ME
IN A CELL.
YANCEY, DO SOMETHING!
- I'LL TRY.
BUT IT MAY BE UNAVOIDABLE.
ARE THOSE REALLY NECESSARY?
- WELL, YOU KNOW,
STANDARD PROCEDURE.
I'M SORRY THEY'RE NOT
DIAMOND-ENCRUSTED,
BUT THE BEDAZZLER,
IT WENT AWOL.
- YOU HAVE NO IDEA
WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF, DETECTIVE.
- I SAW YOUR MOM'S BODY.
- IF YOU REALLY BELIEVE
I COULD DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT
TO SOMEONE I LOVE...
WHAT DO YOU THINK
I COULD DO TO SOMEONE YOU LOVE?
- LIV AND ASH BACK YET?
- UH, NO. SHOULD BE
ABOUT ANOTHER 20 MINUTES.
WHY?
- CAN YOU HAVE THEM TRANSPORT
ANNE TO RIKERS?
I'M GONNA TAKE
A LITTLE LOST TIME RIGHT NOW.
- WELL, WHAT'S GOING ON?
- IT'S PROBABLY NOTHING.
- WHATEVER IT IS, IT WAS ENOUGH
TO GET YOU RATTLED.
- ANNE THREATENED MY FAMILY.
- WELL, I WOULDN'T CALL
THAT NOTHING.
- YEAH, WELL, I DON'T THINK
SHE HAS THE REACH TO GET
ANYTHING DONE FROM THE INSIDE,
BUT JUST TO BE SAFE,
I'M GONNA TAKE KATHY
AND THE KIDS
OVER TO HER SISTER'S
IN JERSEY.
I'M PROBABLY
OVERREACTING, BUT--
- I DON'T THINK SO.
HUANG THINKS
SHE'S EXTREMELY LETHAL.
YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY.
WE'LL HANDLE THE PRISONER.
ANNE TUCKED IN
FOR THE NIGHT?
- OH, CORRECTIONS GAVE HER
THE PRESIDENTIAL SUITE.
- THOSE YOUR FIVES
ON THE HOMICIDE?
- YEP. I'M JUST, UH, PUTTING
THE CHERRY ON TOP
BEFORE I GIVE IT TO THE FEDS.
- GOOD,
'CAUSE YOU'RE OFF THE CASE.
- WHAT?
- WE GOT A BIG PROBLEM.
- WITH ME?
- AND YOUR BUDDY,
ASH RAMSEY.
[pounding on door]
- COME ON, COME ON!
ASH!
- I HEARD YOU
THE FIRST 30 TIMES.
NOW, BUGGER OFF.
- ASH, IT'S OLIVIA BENSON!
- DON'T YOU EVER SLEEP?
- YOU DIDN'T ANSWER YOUR PHONE.
- SO YOU ASKED TRUCK ONE
TO BOOM MY DOOR?
- THEY'RE HERE
TO PROTECT YOU.
ANNE GILLETTE
JUST TOOK OUT A HIT ON US.
- AN INFORMANT AT RIKERS
RATTED ANNE OUT.
SAID SHE WAS BUYING
A CONTRACT ON US.
DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S MADE
CONTACT YET WITH A HIT MAN,
BUT CRAGEN DOESN'T WANT
TO TAKE ANY CHANCES.
- HENCE THE PLATOON
OUTSIDE MY DOOR.
- OLIVIA, GOOD TO SEE YOU.
THANKS FOR THE FILES, ASH.
[clears throat]
GOOD NIGHT.
- GOOD NIGHT.
- DON'T SAY IT--
CONFLICT OF INTEREST,
GROSS IMPROPRIETY,
COMPROMISING THE CASE.
- YOU COULD HAVE KISSED HER
GOOD NIGHT.
- I DIDN'T MAKE HER CLIMB
DOWN THE FIRE ESCAPE.
- [laughs]
OKAY.
- [clears throat]
SO HOW MUCH ARE WE WORTH?
- 100 GRAND.
- THAT'S ALL?
- FOR BOTH OF US.
- I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
SHE'D DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
- KILLING YOUR PARENTS
IS ONE THING, BUT...
MURDERING TWO COPS?
THAT'S A WHOLE NOTHER
BALL GAME.
- NOT FOR A PSYCHOPATH.
WE HAVEN'T SEEN
THE REAL ANNE GILLETTE YET,
JUST SHADOWS AND MASKS--
THE GRIEVING DAUGHTER,
THE FRIGHTENED VICTIM,
THE VIXEN, THE SOCIALITE.
- SO SHE'S GOOD
AT PLAYING PARTS,
BUT GREEDY AND THIEVING
DOESN'T MAKE HER A PSYCHOPATH.
- NOT ALL PSYCHOPATHS
ARE MURDERERS AND RAPISTS.
SOME NEVER COMMIT A CRIME.
THEY'VE ADAPTED THEIR AMORALITY
TO FIT INTO SOCIETY.
- LIKE YOUR FRIENDS
ON WALL STREET?
- WHO BETTER TO LEVERAGE
THE BUYOUT OF A COMPANY
WITHOUT GIVING A DAMN
ABOUT THE PEOPLE
WHO LOSE THEIR PENSIONS
ALONG WITH THEIR JOBS?
- YEAH, BUT IT'S NOT
THE SAME THING.
THEY DIDN'T BREAK THE LAW.
THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN EMBEZZLEMENT AND RAPE.
- OH, ABSOLUTELY.
RAPISTS GET 18 YEARS IN ATTICA.
WHITE-COLLAR CRIMINALS
GET 18 MONTHS IN CLUB FED.
I'M SICK OF WATCHING MY PERPS
GET SOFT TIME.
- SO WE BETTER MAKE SURE
THAT ANNE GILLETTE
GOES DOWN FOR MURDER.
- YOU'RE BOTH OFF THE CASE.
IT'S TOO DANGEROUS.
- YOU CAN'T REASSIGN US.
- IT'S ALREADY DONE.
YOU TOO, ELLIOT.
WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT KIND
OF ASSOCIATES ANNE GILLETTE HAS
OR WHETHER SHE HAS SOMETHING
IN PLAY ALREADY.
- WE PROMISED THE U.S. ATTORNEY
WE'D TRANSFER HER
TO THE FEDERAL JAIL TODAY.
- LET THE MARSHALS SERVICE
HANDLE THE PRISONER.
IT'S WHAT THEY DO.
- CAPTAIN, WHY DON'T YOU LET US
PICK HER UP FROM RIKERS
AND TRANSFER HER DOWN
TO LOCKUP AT FOLEY SQUARE?
- COUPLE OF HOURS, MAX.
- NO.
IT'S DONE.
- YOU GOING SOMEWHERE?
- OH. JUST GOT
A FEW ERRANDS TO RUN.
- OH, YEAH?
YOUR, UH...
DRY CLEANER HAVE, UH,
ANGER ISSUES?
- LIV, DON'T DO THIS.
- I'M NOT GONNA LET THAT BITCH
SCARE ME OFF.
- MAYBE YOU SHOULD.
I SENT MY FAMILY AWAY.
- THEY'RE CIVILIANS.
I GOT A JOB TO DO.
- ASH RAMSEY
PUT YOU UP TO THIS?
- NO. IT'S MY IDEA.
- WAIT A MINUTE.
WAIT A MINUTE.
AND YOU'RE JUST GONNA
DEAL ME OUT?
- I'M TRYING TO PROTECT YOU
FROM THE FALLOUT.
- WHILE YOU AND SIR G.Q.
JUST COWBOY IT UP, HUH?
- YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH ASH?
- NO, BUT YOU'RE MY PARTNER.
IF ANYBODY HAS YOUR BACK,
IT SHOULD BE ME.
- EL, IT'S FINE.
I CAN HANDLE ANNE GILLETTE.
YOU HANDLE THE CAPTAIN.
- KICKED UP TO THE FEDS.
I SUPPOSE
I SHOULD BE FLATTERED.
HOW ARE
THE FEDERAL FACILITIES?
- MARTHA STEWART CALLED IT
"GOING TO YALE."
- WELL, CLEVER MARTHA.
AT LEAST IT'LL HAVE
A BETTER CLASS OF PRISONER.
THIS PLACE IS FULL
OF THE MOST AWFUL WOMEN.
AND I HEAR
I'LL GET TO WEAR BLUE.
IT'S MUCH MORE FLATTERING
WITH MY COLORING.
I'M A SUMMER, YOU KNOW.
- WE ALL SET?
- SHALL WE?
- WHERE ARE WE?
- QUEENS.
- NO WONDER
I'VE NEVER BEEN HERE.
[tires screech]
- GO, GO, GO!
[horn honks]
STAY IN THE CAR.
[machine gunfire]
- COME ON, LET'S GO!
LET'S GO!
[tires squealing]
- WELL, THIS ISN'T
THE WALDORF.
BUT THEN AGAIN,
THE CONCIERGE
MIGHT HAVE OBJECTED
TO YOUR ATTIRE.
- YOU WANT TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE,
THERE'S THE DOOR.
- HOW ABOUT A RIDE TO
THE WESTCHESTER COUNTY AIRPORT?
THERE'S A JET WAITING.
- SURE. AS SOON AS I GET
THE REST OF MY MONEY.
- I TOLD YOU I'D WIRE IT
INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.
DON'T YOU TRUST ME?
- LOOK, LADY.
I JUST ICED TWO COPS FOR YOU.
I DON'T TRUST YOU ANY FURTHER
THAN I CAN THROW YOU.
- FINE.
I'LL MAKE THE CALL NOW.
- NO. NOT THAT PHONE.
NEVER KNOW
WHO MIGHT BE LISTENING.
- FIRST IT'S MY BOOTS.
NOW IT'S MY SHIRT.
[dialing phone in background]
- WE'LL GO SHOPPING.
- YOU MIND
IF WE WRAP THIS UP FIRST?
[line trilling]
- BONJOUR.
- BONJOUR. BANQUE DU GENEVE?
- OUI.
- OUI.
[speaking French]
- LOOK AT HER.
SHE'S ENJOYING THIS.
- THAT'S CORRECT.
ALL DONE.
WHERE ARE MY MANNERS?
MY FATHER ALWAYS TOLD ME
TO SEAL EVERY BUSINESS DEAL
WITH CHAMPAGNE.
DO YOU THINK THIS DUMP
HAS ROOM SERVICE?
- THEY DO NOW.
I HAVE TO SAY, WHEN MY CELL MATE
TOLD ME SHE KNEW A HIT MAN,
I HAD NO IDEA
YOU'D BE SO ATTRACTIVE.
- I'M THE TOTAL PACKAGE.
- I WISH I'D MET YOU SOONER.
YOUR SKILLS
WOULD HAVE COME IN HANDY.
- IN KILLING YOUR PARENTS?
- I DIDN'T.
- RELAX, BABY.
YOU'RE AMONG FRIENDS.
BUT AN AX--
THAT'S OLD-SCHOOL.
- YOU DIDN'T KNOW
MY MOTHER--
THE CONSTANT JUDGMENT,
THE CARPING.
AND THEN THE BITCH
TRIED TO TELL MY DADDY
TO CUT ME OUT OF THE WILL.
I HAD HIM WRAPPED
AROUND MY FINGER FOR YEARS.
BUT MOTHER
WAS OUT TO GET ME,
ALWAYS WHISPERING
NASTY THINGS IN HIS EAR.
I DIDN'T WANT HIM DEAD, BUT--
- COLLATERAL DAMAGE.
- EXACTLY.
[laughs]
YOU KNOW,
YOU SHOULD COME WITH ME...
DARLING.
I COULD ALWAYS USE A MAN
WITH YOUR SKILLS.
THE POSSIBILITIES FOR US
ARE ENDLESS.
RIO IS ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL
THIS TIME OF YEAR.
85 AND SUNNY,
AND CARNIVAL IS STARTING SOON.
[knocking on door]
- WHO IS IT?
- ROOM SERVICE.
- IT'S ABOUT TIME.
YOU BASTARD!
- YOU'LL BE TAKING
THIS TRIP ALONE, DARLING.
- GET OFF OF ME!
GET OFF OF ME!
I WILL KILL YOU.
I WILL KILL YOU ALL!
GET OFF OF ME!
GET OFF!
- FINALLY
THE MASK COMES OFF.
- WE GET TO SEE
THE REAL ANNE GILLETTE.
- WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?
IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM,
SEXUALLY BASED OFFENSES ARE
CONSIDERED ESPECIALLY HEINOUS.
IN NEW YORK CITY,
THE DEDICATED DETECTIVES
WHO INVESTIGATE
THESE VICIOUS FELONIES
ARE MEMBERS
OF AN ELITE SQUAD
KNOWN AS
THE SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT.
THESE ARE THEIR STORIES.
- MORNING!
MR. AND MRS. GILLETTE!
IT'S MIKE!
UH, DO YOU WANT ME TO LOAD
THE LUGGAGE NOW?
UM, TRAFFIC'S REALLY HEAVY.
WE SHOULD BE LEAVING NOW.
[dog barking]
HELLO.
YOU FILTHY BUGGER.
YOU ARE NOT GETTING
INTO MY NICE, CLEAN CADDY
COVERED IN...
IT'S BLOOD.
MRS. GILLETTE?
UM, ARE YOU OKAY?
HELLO?
SIR?
I-IT'S MIKE.
[gasps]
- BERT AND ELAINE GILLETTE--
THE FAMILY CHAUFFER
FOUND THEM AN HOUR AGO.
MURDER-SUICIDE IS DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE, SO I CALLED YOU.
- HUSBAND OFFS HIS WIFE,
LIES DOWN BESIDE HER,
SHOOTS HIMSELF.
- BLOOD SPATTER'S CONSISTENT
WITH THAT SCENARIO.
JUST WAITING FOR WARNER
TO GET HERE AND CONFIRM.
- HEAD'S HACKED UP
PRETTY GOOD.
LOOKS LIKE AN AXE.
- WE FOUND THIS HATCHET
BY THE FIREPLACE.
THE GUN WAS ON THE BED
BY HIS HAND.
- HUBBY HAS A GUN?
WHY'D HE TURN HIS WIFE
INTO CHOPPED LIVER?
- YOU'VE NEVER BEEN MARRIED.
- MISS, YOU CAN'T
GO IN THERE.
- DON'T TELL ME
WHAT I CAN'T DO!
THEY'RE MY PARENTS.
- MS. GILLETTE...
- MOTHER.
- MS. GILLETTE...
I NEED YOU
TO WAIT OUTSIDE, OKAY?
- [sobbing]
- COME ON.
- WHAT HAPPENED?
- WE THINK YOUR FATHER
KILLED YOUR MOTHER
AND THEN TOOK HIS OWN LIFE.
- COME ON.
- OH, MOTHER,
WHY DID HE DO THIS TO YOU?
- WARNER CALLED,
SAID YOU DUCKED OUT
ON THE GILLETTE CASE
BEFORE SHE GOT THERE.
- YEAH, WE HAD TO TAKE
THE DAUGHTER HOME.
- YOU INTERVIEW HER?
- WE TRIED.
SHE WAS A BIT OF A MESS.
- LITERALLY.
- WARNER ALSO TOSSED
YOUR MURDER-SUICIDE THEORY.
THE GUNSHOT WOUND
TO DADDY WARBUCKS' HEAD
IS INCONSISTENT
WITH SELF-INFLICTION.
NO RESIDUE ON THE HAND.
- SO IT'S A DOUBLE HOMICIDE.
- AND OUR PERP
IS ON THE LOOSE.
- AND WE'RE KNEE-DEEP IN IT.
THE GILLETTES GAVE GENEROUSLY
TO THE POLICE ATHLETIC LEAGUE,
WERE MAJOR CAMPAIGN DONORS
TO THE MAYOR,
AND HAD THE POLICE COMMISSIONER
ON SPEED DIAL.
THEIR POLITICAL PALS
WILL BE CRAWLING UP MY ASS.
- IT'S NOT
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ANYMORE.
TURF IT TO HOMICIDE.
- ALREADY TRIED.
THE PC SAID THE GILLETTES
WERE SPECIAL VICTIMS.
- 'CAUSE THEY WERE RICH,
POWERFUL, AND CONNECTED.
- AND WE'RE STUCK WITH IT.
GO BACK TO THE CRIME SCENE
WITH FRESH EYES,
SEE WHAT EVIDENCE
YOU CAN FIND.
- ONE PANE OF GLASS
WAS CUT OUT.
EASY TO REACH IN
AND OPEN THE LOCK.
- YOU MISSED FORCED ENTRY.
- WE PROCESSED
THE BEDROOM FIRST.
IT LOOKED LIKE
A MURDER-SUICIDE.
- WE CAME
TO THE SAME CONCLUSION.
- WELL, THE BREAK-IN
DIDN'T TRIGGER THE ALARM.
- INDIVIDUAL PANES
AREN'T WIRED.
THEY WANTED IT TO LOOK NICE.
THEY GOT LESS SAFE.
- BUT EVEN STILL,
THE ALARM SHOULD HAVE GONE OFF
WHEN THE WINDOW WAS OPENED.
- CHECKED
WITH THE SECURITY COMPANY.
THE SYSTEM
WASN'T ARMED LAST NIGHT.
RECORDS SHOW THE GILLETTES
USUALLY SET IT AROUND 11:00.
- BEFORE THEY GO TO BED.
- THAT MAY PUT
THEIR TIME OF DEATH AT 10:00.
KILLER KNOWS THEIR ROUTINE.
- AND MUST HAVE
REALLY HATED THEM
TO HACK ONE UP
AND BLOW THE OTHER'S BRAINS OUT.
- MAYBE THE DAUGHTER
KNOWS WHO.
- MY FATHER DIDN'T DO IT?
- FORENSICS
PROVE IT CONCLUSIVELY.
I'M SORRY WE SUGGESTED IT.
- OH, I'M JUST RELIEVED.
IT MADE NO SENSE THAT DADDY
WOULD DO SOMETHING SO TERRIBLE.
- CAN YOU THINK
OF ANYONE WHO WOULD?
- I CAN'T IMAGINE ANYONE
WANTING TO HURT MY PARENTS.
THEY WERE PATRONS OF THE ARTS.
THEY GAVE MILLIONS TO CHARITY.
THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE EVEN
BEEN HERE.
- WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
- THEY WERE SUPPOSED
TO GO TO FLORIDA LAST NIGHT.
MOTHER WAS GETTING
OVER THE FLU,
AND I TOLD THEM
THAT SHE SHOULD REST ANOTHER DAY
BEFORE THEY TRAVELED.
- AND WHO ELSE KNEW THAT THEY
WERE GOING ON VACATION?
- EVERYONE.
THEY GO TO OUR HOUSE
IN SANIBEL ISLAND EVERY YEAR,
RIGHT AFTER CHRISTMAS,
AND STAY UNTIL EASTER.
- ANYONE ELSE KNOW
THAT THEY HADN'T LEFT YET?
- ME, THE STAFF,
A FEW FRIENDS.
BUT I TOLD YOU--
EVERYONE LOVED MY PARENTS.
IT MUST HAVE BEEN A BURGLAR.
- WELL, NOTHING WAS TAKEN.
AND BURGLARS,
THEY GRAB AND GO.
THEY'RE NOT GONNA HANG AROUND
AND STAGE A MURDER-SUICIDE.
THIS WAS PERSONAL.
- OH, GOD.
OH, GOD, THE KILLER
IS AFTER ME TOO.
- WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
- I WAS OUT SHOPPING
THE OTHER DAY,
AND I HAD
THIS STRANGE SENSE
THAT SOMEONE
WAS FOLLOWING ME.
AND I-I TURN AROUND,
AND I'D SEE HIM
DUCK BEHIND SOMETHING.
- CAN YOU DESCRIBE HIM?
- SUNGLASSES,
DARK HAIR--
HE WAS--HE WAS
TOO FAR AWAY FROM ME
TO GET A GOOD LOOK.
- WHEN DID YOU SEE HIM?
- WEDNESDAY.
- AND WHERE EXACTLY
DID YOU GO?
- UH, A COUPLE OF BOUTIQUES
ON MADISON,
A JEWELRY STORE,
AN ART GALLERY I ADORE--
ZANSKY-DANICH IN CHELSEA.
- MS. GILLETTE--
LOVELY WOMAN.
EXQUISITE TASTE.
- AND SHE WAS HERE
ON WEDNESDAY?
- AND MONDAY.
IF SHE'S NOT BUYING
SOMETHING NEW,
SHE'S SELLING SOMETHING
FROM HER PERSONAL COLLECTION.
IN THE LAST YEAR,
SHE ACQUIRED A DZUBAS
AND SOLD US A ROTHKO.
- SO YOU WOULD DESCRIBE HER
AS A GOOD CUSTOMER.
- THESE DAYS, A GOOD CUSTOMER
IS ANYONE WHO EVEN WINDOW-SHOPS
AND SPENDS MONEY,
LOTS OF IT.
- THAT'S UNFORTUNATE.
- THAT'S AN INSTALLATION PIECE.
PATRICE COMES TO US
FROM THE SAATCHI IN LONDON.
TALENT LIKE HERS IS VERY RARE.
- I'LL BET.
- SO WEDNESDAY,
WHEN MS. GILLETTE DROPPED BY,
UM, YOU SAW HER COME IN?
- I OPENED THE DOOR MYSELF.
- ANYONE COME IN AFTER HER?
- NO, IT WAS
A QUIET AFTERNOON.
TWO OR THREE OTHER CLIENTS,
BUT NO ONE I DIDN'T KNOW.
- WOULD YOU MIND
LETTING US TAKE A LOOK
AT YOUR SECURITY TAPES?
- WE DON'T HAVE ANY.
SPENDING A MILLION DOLLARS
IS A VERY PRIVATE EXPERIENCE,
ESPECIALLY FOR SOME
OF OUR MORE ECCENTRIC CLIENTS.
THEY DON'T WANT
A HARD SELL.
- OR CAMERAS RECORDING
THEIR SPENDING HABITS.
- HELL, YES, WE GOT CAMERAS.
THE SMALLER THEY MAKE 'EM,
THE MORE WE INSTALL.
MY BROTHER RUNS OUR SECURITY
IN THE BACK.
RIGHT NOW HE'S PROBABLY
EYEBALLING YOU
ON A DOZEN DIFFERENT SCREENS.
- HE EYEBALL
ANNE GILLETTE RECENTLY?
- ANNIE?
OF COURSE.
SAW HER JUST THE OTHER DAY.
- SHE'S A REGULAR?
- AND A VERY CLASSY LADY.
OLD SCHOOL, YOU KNOW?
GLAMOROUS.
LOVES TO BUY ICE.
LOVES TO WEAR IT.
BEST OF ALL,
LOVES TO PAY FOR IT IN CASH,
LIKE SHE DID
WHEN SHE WAS IN ON WEDNESDAY.
BOUGHT ONE OF THESE
BEAUTIFUL DIAMOND-ENCRUSTED
LADY BULGARIS.
- UH, WHEN ANNIE
WAS IN HERE THE OTHER DAY,
YOU NOTICE ANYONE
FOLLOWING HER?
- THERE WAS A FELLOW--
DARK-SKINNED.
DON'T TELL ME ANNIE
WAS MUGGED.
- NO, NO, NO.
MS. GILLETTE IS FINE.
BUT SOMEONE MAY HAVE
BEEN TAILING HER.
- WHICH IS WHY
WE'D LIKE TO SEE
YOUR SECURITY FOOTAGE
FROM WEDNESDAY.
- I'LL DO YOU ONE BETTER.
THE WHOLE SHEBANG'S
DIGITIZED.
I'LL BURN YOU A DISK.
- I THINK THAT COULD BE HIM.
- WELL, WE'VE GOT THAT SAME MAN
ON SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS
FROM THREE OF THE SHOPS
THAT YOU VISITED ON WEDNESDAY.
- HE FOLLOWED YOU IN.
HE BOUGHT NOTHING.
AND HE LEFT 30 SECONDS
AFTER YOU DID.
- SO I WAS RIGHT.
HE WAS WATCHING ME.
HE MUST HAVE FOLLOWED ME
TO MY PARENTS' HOUSE
AND KILLED THEM.
- WHY DO YOU THINK
HE TARGETED YOUR FAMILY?
- MY PICTURE'S
ALWAYS IN THE PAPER.
I ATTRACT
ALL KINDS OF ATTENTION
FROM MEN
WHO WANT MY MONEY.
HOW ARE YOU EVER
GOING TO FIND HIM?
- WE KNOW WHERE
HE'S GONNA BE TOMORROW...
FOLLOWING YOU.
- YOU WANT TO USE ME...
AS BAIT.
I'LL HIRE BODYGUARDS.
- NO, DON'T.
THAT'LL SPOOK YOUR SHADOW.
- YOU'RE ASKING ME
TO LURE HIM OUT, UNPROTECTED.
- WE WILL BE WITH YOU
EVERYWHERE YOU GO.
AND WHEN WE SEE HIM,
WE'LL GRAB HIM.
- THE AFRICAN-MAHOGANY CASKETS
WILL BE FINE,
BUT THE HANDLES
MUST BE SOLID BRONZE.
- WE'LL NEED
TO SPECIAL ORDER THEM.
- THEN DO IT.
MAKE EVERYTHING PERFECT.
THEY'RE MY PARENTS.
- OF COURSE, MS. GILLETTE.
I'LL SEE TO IT MYSELF.
- SPOT HIM YET?
- NO SIGN.
- HE COULD HARDLY FOLLOW HER
INTO THE FUNERAL HOME.
WHAT'S HE GONNA DO, PRETEND
HE'S SHOPPING FOR COFFINS?
- MAYBE HE MADE US
AT THE CEMETERY OR THE FLORIST.
- IN THESE OUTFITS?
- OLIVIA, I NEED YOU TO PLACE
SOME CALLS FOR ME.
- SEE? EVEN SHE FORGOT
WE'RE COPS.
LOOK, I'M GETTING SICK
OF THIS PLAYACTING.
IF HE'S FOLLOWING HER,
WE WOULD HAVE SEEN HIM BY NOW.
- WE GOT ONE MORE STOP.
- AS FOR THE HYMNS,
YOUR MOTHER WAS PARTICULARLY
FOND OF ROCK OF AGES
AND ABIDE WITH ME.
- FINE.
- EL, I'VE GOT MOVEMENT
AT 3:00.
- ANNE, YOU LOOK PALE.
YOU NEED TO REST.
IS THERE SOMEPLACE PRIVATE
YOU COULD TAKE US?
- I'M FINE, OLIVIA.
PLEASE DON'T FUSS.
- HOW MANY PALLBEARERS
ARE CUSTOMARY?
- HEY!
POLICE--FREEZE.
TURN AROUND.
- THAT'S HIM!
- GUN!
- GET HER OUT OF HERE!
- OH, MY GOD,
PLEASE DON'T LET HIM KILL ME!
- LET'S GO, LET'S GO.
- DON'T MOVE.
- [British accent]
IN THE RIGHT INSIDE POCKET,
YOU'LL FIND SOMETHING
OF INTEREST.
- YOU ON THE JOB?
- ASHOK RAMSEY,
SPECIAL FRAUDS.
- MM-HMM.
TURN AROUND.
- WHY ARE YOU TAILING
ANNE GILLETTE?
- BECAUSE SHE'S A KILLER.
DIDN'T YOU KNOW?
- I'VE BEEN TAILING
ANNE GILLETTE
FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS.
- YOU DID A LOUSY JOB.
YOU GOT MADE BY A LADY
WHO LUNCHES.
- WHO'S BEEN LEADING
YOU AND YOUR PARTNER
ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE.
- DID YOU SEE HER
MURDER HER PARENTS?
- I WASN'T FOLLOWING HER
THAT NIGHT.
MY CASE FOCUSED
ON HER DAYTIME ACTIVITIES.
- WELL, LET'S TALK
ABOUT THOSE.
ACCORDING TO YOUR C.O.,
SPECIAL FRAUDS
HAS NO OPEN INVESTIGATION
INTO ANNE GILLETTE.
- IT'S OFF THE BOOKS.
- BY WHOSE AUTHORITY?
- THE CHIEF OF DETECTIVES.
- YOU'RE RUNNING A SHADOW OP?
- THAT'S WHAT THE MAYOR WANTS.
- HIZZONER
AND THE CHIEF OF Ds, HUH?
YOU'RE, UH,
PRETTY WELL CONNECTED.
- NOT AS WELL AS THE GILLETTES.
I HAD TO INVESTIGATE ANNE
SUB ROSA,
SO HER FAMILY
COULDN'T QUASH THE CASE.
- WHY WERE YOU AFTER HER?
- FOR EMBEZZLEMENT.
- THE GILLETTE FORTUNE
WASN'T ENOUGH?
- ANNE HAS EXPENSIVE TASTES.
HER TRUST FUND RAN OUT,
SO SHE USED HER SEAT ON
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION BOARD
TO SUPPLEMENT HER INCOME--
STOLE $3.5 MILLION.
- WELL, THAT WOULD KEEP,
UH, MISS THING IN DIAMONDS
FOR QUITE A WHILE.
THIS IS FOR YOUR SCRAPBOOK.
YOU GOT ENOUGH PROOF
THAT SHE DID THAT?
- NOT YET.
BUT WHEN I SHOW YOU MY FILE,
I THINK YOU'LL BE CONVINCED.
- SO YOU CAN MAKE HER
FOR A THIEF.
THAT'S A BIG JUMP TO MURDER.
- IS IT?
SHE'S THE SOLE HEIR
TO HER PARENTS' ESTATE.
IT'S WORTH OVER $200 MILLION.
- WELL, THAT'S
A LOT OF MOTIVE.
SHE'S BROKE, DESPERATE,
AND ALL THAT MONEY
IS JUST OUT OF HER REACH.
- YOU'RE NOT IN CUFFS.
LET ME GUESS--
ONE OF US?
- LIV, ASH RAMSEY,
SPECIAL FRAUDS.
- OH, SO WE REALLY DO HAVE
A MODERN-DAY LIZZIE BORDEN.
- ONLY THIS TIME,
MOMMY ONLY GOT TEN WHACKS.
- [scoffs]
HOW DID YOU GET ONTO HER?
- MY OFFICE IS AT ONE P.P.
I'LL CATCH YOU UP
ON THE WAY DOWNTOWN.
- ANNE TRIED OUT THREE TIMES
FOR THE OLYMPIC
EQUESTRIAN TEAM...
UNSUCCESSFULLY.
SHE THEN OPENED
AN ART GALLERY,
WHICH CLOSED AFTER SHE FORGOT
TO PAY TAXES FOR FIVE YEARS,
FOLLOWED BY A STINT
AS AN INTERIOR DECORATOR
THAT RESULTED
IN SIX LAWSUITS--
ALL OF THEM SETTLED PRIVATELY.
- IT SOUNDS LIKE
SHE HASN'T FOUND HERSELF,
BUT WHY WOULD
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION
WANT HER ON THE BOARD?
- DADDY GAVE THEM $10 MILLION.
- I GOT MY DAUGHTER A JOB AT
TARGET, DIDN'T COST ME A DIME.
- I'M SURE YOUR DAUGHTER'S
MORE QUALIFIED
TO SIT ON
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION BOARD.
ANNE WAS DISCREETLY KICKED OUT
OF THREE PREP SCHOOLS.
SHE FINALLY GRADUATED
FROM A GIRL'S FINISHING SCHOOL
IN SWITZERLAND,
WHERE SHE RECEIVED CREDIT
FOR FLOWER ARRANGING.
- SO POOR LITTLE RICH GIRL
CAN'T CUT IT IN THE REAL WORLD,
BUT SHE'S SMART ENOUGH
TO STEAL $3 1/2 MILLION.
THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.
- DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ANNE.
SHE'S INCREDIBLY SMART.
BUT SHE DOESN'T PLAY
BY THE RULES.
- HOW'D SHE SCAM
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION?
- THEIR RECORD KEEPING
IS ABYSMAL--
NO COMPUTERIZED FILES.
THEY JUST WRITE CHECKS
TO DESERVING ORGANIZATIONS.
- I'LL SAY.
$300,000
FOR THE BED-STUY ART LEAGUE.
500K TO THE WASHINGTON HEIGHTS
CHILDREN ORCHESTRA?
WELL, MAYBE SHE'S JUST
OVERLY GENEROUS.
- NONE OF THESE
ORGANIZATIONS EXIST.
BANK ACCOUNTS
WERE OPENED FOR EACH
WITH FORGED DOCUMENTS,
THE FUNDS DEPOSITED.
- AND THE CASH WITHDRAWN
AS SOON AS THE CHECKS CLEAR.
- THE FOUNDATION DIDN'T NOTICE
UNTIL MR. PRESTWICK
MADE A VISIT TO
THE CHINATOWN FOLKLORIC BALLET
AND WOUND UP IN A PET SHOP.
THEY WERE EMBARRASSED
AND WANTED A QUIET INVESTIGATION
SO AS NOT TO SCARE OFF
FUTURE DONORS.
- ANYONE AT THE BANK
I.D. ANNE?
- NO, THE ACCOUNTS WERE ALL
OPENED BY A WHITE MAN, 40s...
OTHERWISE UNMEMORABLE.
- WELL, HER ACCOMPLICE
HAD TO HAVE SHOWN I.D.
PATRIOT ACT
REQUIRES VERIFICATION
OF ALL THE ACCOUNT HOLDERS.
- BUT WITH A CHARITY,
ALL YOU NEED
ARE THE 501-C3 PAPERS.
- HOW'D YOU KNOW
ANNE WAS DIRTY?
- THE FRAUD BEGAN
AS SOON AS SHE JOINED THE BOARD.
RIGHT AFTER EACH PHONY CHECK
WAS CASHED,
SHE WENT ON SHOPPING SPREES.
I'VE BEEN TRACKING
HER SPENDING.
SHE'S ALMOST OUT OF FUNDS.
- SO YOU'VE BEEN TAILING HER,
HOPING SHE'D GO BACK
TO HER ACCOMPLICE FOR A TOP-UP.
- BUT SHE COULDN'T--
SHE KNEW YOU WERE FOLLOWING HER,
MUST HAVE REALIZED
THE FOUNDATION WAS ON TO HER.
- MAYBE SHE WENT
TO MOMMY AND DADDY FOR MONEY.
THEY SAID NO.
SHE OFFED 'EM.
- CLASSIC RED-COLLAR CRIME.
WHEN SOME WHITE-COLLAR CRIMINALS
ARE CONFRONTED
OR FEAR THEY'RE
ABOUT TO BE CAUGHT,
THEY CAN TURN VIOLENT.
MOST COMMON TARGETS
ARE THE PARENTS.
- RAMSEY!
GET OUT HERE!
- ONLY TIME I HEAR
THAT VOICE
IS WHEN I'M ABOUT
TO BE BENT OVER.
- CHIEF MULDREW...
AND MR. PRESTWICK--
IT'S A PLEASURE.
- SUSPEND YOUR INVESTIGATION
INTO THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION.
- BUT, SIR--
- THE MONEY'S BEEN REPLACED.
A BOARD MEMBER HEARD
OF OUR PREDICAMENT,
PLEDGED TO COVER OUR LOSSES.
- ANNE GILLETTE.
- THE DONOR WISHES
TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS.
- SIR, A CRIME
WAS STILL COMMITTED.
- IT'S ALL BEEN
A MISUNDERSTANDING.
- AND MR. PRESTWICK WOULD LIKE
THE FOUNDATION'S FILES BACK.
LOAD UP THE RECORDS.
WHAT'S SPECIAL VICTIMS
DOING DOWN HERE?
- WE'RE JUST HITTING UP ASH
TO JOIN US IN A FOURSOME,
A LITTLE GOLF TOURNAMENT--
SVU VERSUS NASSAU SEX CRIMES.
- OH, WELL, RAMSEY WOULD MAKE
A HELL OF A RINGER.
- ARE YOU SURE
YOU WOULDN'T LIKE A FULL REPORT
OF MY FINDINGS?
- IT'S NOT NECESSARY.
I'M SO SORRY
WE TROUBLED YOU.
- GOOD LUCK ON THE LINKS.
- THAT'S SIX MONTHS OF HARD WORK
GOING DOWN THE TOILET.
- CHIEF OF Ds
DIDN'T SHUT DOWN OUR CASE.
YOU WANT TO NAIL
ANNE GILLETTE?
WORK WITH US ON IT.
- THE MINUTE YOU QUESTION HER,
MULDREW WILL PAY
YOUR SQUAD A VISIT.
- NOT IF WE QUESTION HER
AS A VICTIM.
LADY DID SAY
SHE HAD A STALKER.
- AND WE CAUGHT YOU.
- I'M SO GLAD
YOU ARRESTED HIM.
DO YOU THINK
HE KILLED MY PARENTS?
- I DO, BUT IT WOULD HELP US
NAIL HIM
IF YOU COULD ANSWER
SOME QUESTIONS.
- ANYTHING YOU WANT TO KNOW.
WELL, THIS IS GRIM.
I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU WORK
UNDER THESE CONDITIONS.
- BUDGET CUTS.
WE'RE USED TO IT.
BUT WE'RE LOSING A LOT
OF DOMESTIC-VIOLENCE
SHELTER BEDS,
COUNSELING FOR RAPE VICTIMS.
- PERHAPS I CAN ARRANGE
FOR A GRANT
IN MY PARENTS' NAME.
- WELL,
THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL.
BUT, OF COURSE,
FIRST WE'D HAVE TO CONVICT
YOUR PARENTS' KILLER
TO AVOID
ANY CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
- OF COURSE.
SO YOU ARE CHARGING HIM
WITH MURDER.
- OH, I'D LOVE TO,
BUT WE DON'T HAVE
ENOUGH EVIDENCE.
- BUT YOU HAVE HIM ON TAPE
AT THE STORES WHERE I WAS.
I MEAN, I-I-IT CAN'T BE
A COINCIDENCE.
- NO, BUT WE HAVE NOTHING
TYING HIM TO YOUR PARENTS' HOUSE
OR TO THEIR MURDERS.
YOU DON'T HAVE
ANY FINGERPRINTS? NO DNA?
- HE MUST HAVE WORN GLOVES.
- THIS IS TERRIBLE.
- WELL, DON'T WORRY,
MS. GILLETTE.
HOMICIDE CASES NEVER CLOSE.
SO IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME...
BUT WE WILL CONVICT
YOUR PARENTS' KILLER.
- I KNOW HE DID IT.
I JUST WISH THERE WAS SOME WAY
WE COULD PROVE IT.
- YOU SAID THAT YOUR PARENTS
NEVER MENTIONED
BEING FOLLOWED OR WATCHED.
- NOT TO ME.
- UH-HUH.
IS THERE ANYBODY
THAT THEY MAY HAVE TOLD?
- OUR BUSINESS MANAGER,
NATE HARTMAN.
HE HANDLES
ALL OF OUR FAMILY'S AFFAIRS.
- I'LL TALK TO HIM.
- YES, UM...
LET ME CALL HIM FIRST.
HE'S A REAL STICKLER
ABOUT CONFIDENTIALITY.
YOU CAN RING NATE
IN THE MORNING
AFTER I'VE SPOKEN WITH HIM.
I'M VERY TIRED.
I'D LIKE TO GO HOME NOW.
- WELL, LET ME DRIVE YOU.
UM, WE CAN FINISH UP
OUR QUESTIONS ON THE WAY THERE.
- YOUR PARTNER'S GOOD.
- ANNE SEEMS PRETTY CONFIDENT
NATE WILL LIE FOR HER--
GOT TO BE HER ACCOMPLICE.
- BUSINESS MANAGER
WOULD KNOW HOW TO EXPLOIT
THE FOUNDATION'S
PRIMITIVE ACCOUNTING
AND OPEN DUMMY ACCOUNTS.
- LET'S HIT HIM BEFORE THEY GET
THEIR STORIES STRAIGHT.
- WHAT'S THE EMERGENCY?
IS ANNE OKAY?
- YOU SEEM WORRIED ABOUT HER.
HAVE, UH, YOU TALKED
TO HER TONIGHT?
- NO. BUT I'M CONCERNED
ABOUT HER SAFETY,
AFTER WHAT HAPPENED
TO BERT AND ELAINE.
- DO YOU KNOW
ALL THE GORY DETAILS?
- JUST THAT THEY WERE MURDERED
IN THEIR BEDS BY BURGLARS.
THAT'S WHAT ANNE TOLD ME.
- AND YOU ALWAYS BELIEVE
WHAT ANNE SAYS.
- OF COURSE.
UH, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
- IN A SHORT WHILE,
YOUR PHONE WILL RING.
ANNE IS GOING TO ASK YOU
TO LIE FOR HER.
- ANNE WOULD NEVER DO THAT.
SHE'S A GENTLE SOUL.
SHE'S SCRUPULOUSLY HONEST.
- WHO'S BEEN ROBBING THE
PRESTWICK FOUNDATION BLIND...
WITH YOUR HELP.
[phone ringing]
- NATE, IT'S OVER.
- UHH...
- YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL.
- UNLESS YOU ANSWER THAT PHONE
AND DO EXACTLY WHAT WE SAY.
- PUT IT ON SPEAKER.
[beep]
- HELLO, ANNE?
- NATE, IT'S SO HORRIBLE.
THE POLICE KNOW
WHO KILLED MY PARENTS,
BUT THEY DON'T HAVE
ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO ARREST HIM.
YOU HAVE TO SAY YOU SAW HIM
FOLLOWING THEM.
- ANNE--
- JUST LISTEN.
YOU'LL DESCRIBE HIM.
INDIAN, DARK HAIR,
WELL-DRESSED,
MENACING, DANGEROUS.
YOU SAW HIM
WATCHING THE HOUSE.
BERT AND ELAINE
SAW HIM TOO.
THEY WERE FRIGHTENED.
THEY ASKED YOU FOR ADVICE.
- YOU WANT ME TO LIE?
- I WANT JUSTICE
FOR MY PARENTS,
AND YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE
WHO CAN DELIVER IT.
I WILL SEE YOU TOMORROW,
DARLING, AT THE FUNERAL.
[beep]
- NOW WHAT HAPPENS?
- YOU TALK.
WE LISTEN.
- SHE TOLD ME
IT WAS A TAX DODGE,
THAT THE FOUNDATION KNEW.
I DIDN'T KNOW
SHE WAS STEALING.
YOU GOT TO BELIEVE ME.
- YOU DON'T HAVE TO CONVINCE ME,
JUST A GRAND JURY...
THE D.A., A JUDGE.
- I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.
- WHY'D YOU DO IT, NATE?
- I LOVED HER.
AND I THOUGHT SHE LOVED ME.
- WE GOT HER.
- ON AN EMBEZZLEMENT CASE
THAT WAS SHUT DOWN
SIX HOURS AGO.
WE STILL DON'T HAVE
ANNE GILLETTE FOR MURDER.
- WE HEARD HER
TELL NATE HARTMAN TO LIE.
- SHE CAN CLAIM
SHE WAS DISTRAUGHT,
AFRAID THAT THE MAN
SHE BELIEVED MURDERED
HER PARENTS WOULD WALK.
- WHO ARE YOU, CABOT?
- JUST KEEP WORKING
THE HOMICIDE.
- RIGHT, AND SHE GETS WIND,
SHE'S GONNA BUY HERSELF
A PRIVATE ISLAND
AND FIGHT EXTRADITION
UNTIL WE'VE RETIRED.
- CAPTAIN,
LET US PICK HER UP
BEFORE YOU GET THE CALL
TELLING US TO STAND DOWN.
- CHARGE HER WITH WITNESS
TAMPERING AND MAKE A SPLASH.
ANNE WON'T BE ABLE
TO HUSH THIS UP
IF IT'S ALL OVER
THE FRONT PAGE.
- IT WAS A LOVELY SERVICE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
- THIS IS VERY BAD TIMING,
DETECTIVES.
WE'RE ON OUR WAY
TO THE GRAVE SITE.
- WITH A STOP AT THE TOMBS.
- YOU'RE A COP?
- ANNE GILLETTE,
YOU'RE UNDER ARREST
FOR OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE,
WITNESS TAMPERING.
- WHAT WITNESS?
- NATE HARTMAN.
- YOU BITCH.
YOU SET ME UP.
- YOU HAVE THE RIGHT
TO REMAIN SILENT.
ANYTHING YOU SAY CAN
AND WILL BE USED...
- ANNE LAWYER UP?
- NO.
BUT HALF THE SOCIAL REGISTER
SAW US COLLAR HER.
SOMEBODY'S GONNA
CALL HER LAWYER.
- BETTER GET IN THERE
BEFORE HE SHOWS UP.
- ANY IDEAS
ON HOW TO PLAY HER?
- SHE'S A SOCIOPATH,
SO SHE'LL WANT CONTROL.
- SO WE WON'T GIVE HER ANY.
- NO, GIVE IT TO HER,
IN SPADES.
MAKE HER FEEL COMFORTABLE.
- SO SHE SLIPS UP.
- CAPTAIN CRAGEN!
- OVER HERE, QUICK.
- YOUR PET COPS
FINALLY WENT OFF THE DEEP END.
ARRESTING ANNE GILLETTE
AT HER PARENTS' FUNERAL?
- THEY WERE OBEYING
MY DIRECT ORDER, SIR.
- YOU KNEW I ORDERED
DETECTIVE RAMSEY
TO CLOSE HIS CASE.
- I DIDN'T THINK THAT TRUMPED
A DOUBLE HOMICIDE.
- THIS ISN'T A MOMENT
FOR YOU TO THINK.
YOUR DETECTIVES DIDN'T ARREST
ANNE GILLETTE FOR MURDER.
PENNY-ANTE WITNESS TAMPERING
IS ALL I HEARD.
- FOR NOW.
- AND YOU CAN PROVE
THAT SHE'S THE KILLER?
- NOT YET.
- THEN WHY THE HELL
DID YOU ARREST HER
IN THE MIDDLE
OF PARK AVENUE?
- SHE'S DANGEROUS.
- IS THAT YOUR CLINICAL OPINION,
DR. HUANG?
- DO YOU WANT ME
TO USE BIGGER WORDS?
FINE, SHE'S A PSYCHOPATH
WITH EXTREMELY VIOLENT--
- STOP SHOWING OFF.
[sighs]
- BRING HER DOWN FOR MURDER,
AND I'LL BACK YOUR PLAY.
BUT...SCREW THE POOCH,
AND I'M GONNA LET
THE CRAP ROLL DOWNHILL.
- THEY BETTER CRACK HER,
OR WE'RE GONNA HAVE
A LOT OF SHOVELING TO DO.
[door closes]
- THREE AGAINST ONE?
YOU ALL HARDLY PLAY FAIR.
- LET'S TALK ANYWAY.
- TO YOU TWO?
CERTAINLY NOT.
JUST HIM.
SHOO.
[door closes]
- WE HAVEN'T BEEN
FORMALLY INTRODUCED.
ANNE GILLETTE.
- ASHOK RAMSEY.
- RAMSEY.
IS YOUR MOTHER SANA RAMSEY?
- YES.
- YOU HAVE HER EYES.
WE USED TO RUN INTO EACH OTHER
ALL THE TIME IN LONDON...
MUTUAL FRIENDS.
- I'LL PASS ON YOUR REGARDS.
- WHO IS THIS GUY?
- NO, YOU WON'T.
YOU HAVEN'T SPOKEN IN YEARS.
WHY IS THAT?
- OVERSEAS CALLS
ARE EXPENSIVE.
- NOT ANYMORE.
AND YOU COULD AFFORD IT,
EVEN IF THEY WERE.
- WHY ARE YOU
SO INTERESTED IN ME?
- BECAUSE WE'RE TWO OF A KIND--
THE PRODIGAL CHILDREN.
- WE'RE NOTHING ALIKE.
- AREN'T WE?
YOU CAME ACROSS THE POND
TO ESCAPE YOUR FAMILY,
SLUMMING AS A COP,
PRETENDING TO BE SOMEONE ELSE.
I KNOW ALL ABOUT IT, DARLING.
AND SOONER OR LATER,
YOU'LL FLY BACK TO THE NEST.
- AND KILL MY PARENTS,
LIKE YOU KILLED YOURS?
- OH.
[chuckles]
THE SHRINKS
HAVE A WORD FOR THAT--
PROJECTION.
- I DON'T WISH
MY PARENTS DEAD.
- OH, DROP THE ACT.
WE ALL DO.
IT'S A TERRIBLE BURDEN,
GROWING UP RICH.
THEY GIVE US TOO MUCH,
THEY GIVE US TOO LITTLE.
BUT IN THE END,
THERE'S ALL THAT MONEY WAITING
WHEN THEY'RE DEAD.
- AND YOU WERE TIRED
OF WAITING.
- TIRED--YES.
BUT ONLY TIRED.
YOU WILL FIND
PLENTY OF WITNESSES
THAT WILL TELL YOU
I SPOKE OF BEING FRUSTRATED,
BUT SO IS PRINCE CHARLES,
AND HE HASN'T OFFED
HIS MOTHER...
YET.
- I DON'T COVET
WHAT MY PARENTS HAVE.
- YOU'RE STILL LIVING
IN THAT ADOLESCENT PLACE,
WHERE YOU REJECT THEIR WORLD,
TRYING TO PROVE
THAT YOU'RE YOUR OWN MAN.
BUT SOONER OR LATER,
THEY WILL LURE YOU BACK IN.
YOUR MOTHER IS...
QUITE SEDUCTIVE.
- YOU KNOW NOTHING.
- I KNOW MORE THAN YOU THINK.
- THAT LADY LIKES
TO PLAY WITH HER FOOD.
- BEFORE SHE STARTS
TAKING BITES.
- HER ATTORNEY'S HERE,
AND I DON'T THINK HE'S USED
TO SEEING HIS CLIENT
LOCKED IN A CAGE.
- I'M YANCEY WINTHROP,
MS. GILLETTE'S COUNSEL.
- YOU'RE WELCOME TO HER.
- FIRST, I'D LIKE A FEW WORDS
WITH YOU TWO.
- SAVE YOUR SPEECH
ABOUT HOW WELL-CONNECTED SHE IS.
I DON'T GIVE A DAMN.
YOU GOT TEN MINUTES BEFORE
I TAKE HER TO CENTRAL BOOKING.
- WHERE'S MY CLIENT?
- RIGHT THIS WAY.
- I SUPPOSE I SHOULD EXPLAIN.
- LOOK, NO NEED.
I HATE THE BITCH
AS MUCH AS YOU DO.
- IT'S HARDLY WORTH
BOOKING HER.
TWO MISDEMEANORS
FOR WITNESS TAMPERING?
SHE'LL WALTZ
OUT OF ARRAIGNMENTS ON LOW BAIL
THE MINUTE THE JUDGE GAVELS.
- WELL, WE GOT NOTHING
ON THE MURDER.
- WE COULD GET A FELONY CHARGE
IF NIGEL PRESTWICK COOPERATES
ON THE EMBEZZLEMENT.
- OKAY. DOES HE HAVE
ANY WEAKNESSES WE CAN LEVERAGE?
- HE'S A MILQUETOAST--
TYPICAL FIFTH-GENERATION
WASP ELITE.
INBREEDING'S
MELTED THEIR BRAINS.
- THERE'S GOT TO BE SOMETHING.
I MEAN, IS HE A TAX CHEAT,
A PHILANDERER?
- JUST A CHEAPSKATE.
NIGEL BILLS ALL HIS PERSONAL
EXPENSES TO THE FOUNDATION.
IT PAYS HIS DUES AT
THE YALE CLUB, THE CENTURY CLUB,
AND SOMETHING CALLED
THE DONATIEN SOCIETY.
WHAT DID I MISS?
- UH, MR. MILQUETOAST
IS NOT SO VANILLA.
HOLD OFF ON TRANSPORTING ANNE.
LET'S GO TALK TO PRESTWICK.
- I TOLD YOU, DETECTIVE,
I CAN'T PRESS CHARGES,
OUT OF RESPECT
FOR BERT GILLETTE'S--
- SHH, LET'S CUT
TO THE CHASE, NIGEL.
MAY I CALL YOU NIGEL?
YOU SEE, NIGEL,
I KNOW THAT MEN HAVE NEEDS.
BUT WHEN A WIFE
CAN'T FILL THOSE NEEDS,
MEN HAVE TO LOOK ELSEWHERE.
- YES.
- BUT SOMETIMES
THOSE NEEDS...
ARE MISUNDERSTOOD...
JUDGED UNFAIRLY BY SOCIETY.
ON YOUR KNEES, WORM.
NOW!
GET UP.
- [whimpers]
- YOU OWE ME
A NEW PAIR OF BOOTS.
- THIS PICTURE'S WORTH
TEN PAIRS OF PRADA.
- PLEASE...DELETE IT.
- I WILL...
AFTER YOU PRESS CHARGES ON
ANNE GILLETTE FOR EMBEZZLEMENT.
- YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE ASKING OF ME.
THE SCANDAL
WILL RUIN THE FOUNDATION.
DONORS WILL LOSE RESPECT FOR--
- YOUR WIFE IS GONNA
LOSE RESPECT FOR YOU
AFTER SHE FINDS OUT
ABOUT YOUR DIRTY LITTLE FETISH.
YOU THINK YOU'RE
PRETTY CLEVER THERE,
NAMING YOUR SECRET SOCIETY
AFTER THE MARQUIS DE SADE?
DONATIEN ALPHONSE FRANCOIS?
- YOU CAN PROTECT ANNE,
OR YOU CAN SAVE YOUR OWN SKIN,
BUT YOU CAN'T DO BOTH.
- YOU SEE, BECAUSE LAST YEAR,
WE ARRESTED TWO SADISTS
WHO WERE MEMBERS
OF YOUR LITTLE CLUB.
AND I REMEMBER,
WE SEIZED A WHOLE LOT OF VIDEOS.
YOU KNOW, WE SHOULD CHECK
THE EVIDENCE LOCKER
TO SEE IF OUR FRIEND
NIGEL HERE IS ON TAPE,
BECAUSE I SPECIFICALLY REMEMBER
THERE WAS ONE ON NAZI ROLE--
- ENOUGH!
I'LL DO IT.
- I THOUGHT SO.
AT LEAST WE GOT ANNE
ON A FELONY EMBEZZLEMENT CHARGE.
- NOT THE WORLD'S BEST CASE.
PRESTWICK TOLD THE CHIEF OF Ds
IT WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING.
DEFENSE COUNSEL
WILL CALL THAT A RECANT.
- WE'VE GOT
THE BUSINESS MANAGER.
- NATE HARTMAN'S
A COCONSPIRATOR,
SO HIS TESTIMONY
REQUIRES CORROBORATION,
UNLESS WE GO FEDERAL.
- DID YOU GO TO LAW SCHOOL?
- LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS.
- NOT A LOT
OF MBAs ON THIS JOB.
- ECONOMICS AND MATHEMATICS
IMPOSE ORDER ON CHAOS.
- LIKE POLICE WORK.
LEARNING SOMETHING NEW
ABOUT YOU ALL THE TIME.
- I MET THIS WOMAN
FROM THE U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE
AT THE OPERA.
I'VE BEEN MEANING TO CALL HER.
- GOOD THING YOU DIDN'T ASK ME
TO TAKE THIS CASE A YEAR AGO.
AFTER 9/11, ALL OUR MANPOWER
WENT TO ANTITERRORISM.
- THE U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE
HAS JURISDICTION
OVER BANK FRAUD.
YOU'RE ALL WE HAVE LEFT.
- HOW SOLID'S YOUR EVIDENCE?
- I SPENT SIX MONTHS
ON A FORENSIC ACCOUNTING
OF THE FOUNDATION'S BOOKS.
I'VE GOT AFFIDAVITS
FROM EVERY BANK,
PLUS A MATCH
BETWEEN EMBEZZLED CASH
AND ANNE GILLETTE'S
EXPENDITURES.
- AND THERE'S THE RUB.
- YOU DON'T WANT TO GO
AFTER ANNE GILLETTE.
- HER PARENTS HAVE GIVEN
MILLIONS TO POLITICIANS.
- HER DEAD PARENTS,
WHO SHE KILLED.
- WHICH YOU CAN'T PROVE.
- BUT WE WILL, AND WHEN WE DO,
YOU CAN FOLD THE HOMICIDE
RIGHT INTO YOUR CASE.
SHE TRIED TO COVER UP THE THEFT
WITH HER PARENTS' CASH.
THE CASES
ARE INEXTRICABLY LINKED.
- HOMICIDE'S THE BIG SHOW.
BUT THEY'RE USUALLY
STATE CASES.
DO YOU KNOW
HOW MANY FEDERAL PROSECUTORS
GO THEIR ENTIRE CAREER
WITHOUT EVER TRYING A MURDER?
- GIVE ME THE FILES.
I'LL DRAFT A WRIT
MOVING ANNE GILLETTE
INTO FEDERAL CUSTODY.
- THANK YOU, CAMILLA.
- AND SHE'LL SPEND
THE NIGHT AT RIKERS.
YOU CAN MOVE HER DOWN
TO MCC TOMORROW.
- I'LL GIVE ELLIOT
THE GOOD NEWS.
- READY TO GO?
- DON'T TOUCH ME.
- YOU WANT TO EXPLAIN THE DRILL
TO HER HIGHNESS?
- ANNE, DEAR, IT'LL ALL BE OVER
IN A COUPLE OF HOURS.
WE'LL POST BAIL--
- YEAH, NO, I DOUBT THAT.
WORD IS THAT
THE PRESTWICK FOUNDATION
HAD A CHANGE OF HEART.
- NIGEL TURN AGAINST ME?
NEVER.
- WELL, MY PARTNER
CAN BE PRETTY PERSUASIVE.
YOU'RE BEING ARRAIGNED
ON FELONY BANK FRAUD,
WHICH MEANS
IT'S OFF TO RIKERS WITH YOU.
- YOU'RE NOT PUTTING ME
IN A CELL.
YANCEY, DO SOMETHING!
- I'LL TRY.
BUT IT MAY BE UNAVOIDABLE.
ARE THOSE REALLY NECESSARY?
- WELL, YOU KNOW,
STANDARD PROCEDURE.
I'M SORRY THEY'RE NOT
DIAMOND-ENCRUSTED,
BUT THE BEDAZZLER,
IT WENT AWOL.
- YOU HAVE NO IDEA
WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF, DETECTIVE.
- I SAW YOUR MOM'S BODY.
- IF YOU REALLY BELIEVE
I COULD DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT
TO SOMEONE I LOVE...
WHAT DO YOU THINK
I COULD DO TO SOMEONE YOU LOVE?
- LIV AND ASH BACK YET?
- UH, NO. SHOULD BE
ABOUT ANOTHER 20 MINUTES.
WHY?
- CAN YOU HAVE THEM TRANSPORT
ANNE TO RIKERS?
I'M GONNA TAKE
A LITTLE LOST TIME RIGHT NOW.
- WELL, WHAT'S GOING ON?
- IT'S PROBABLY NOTHING.
- WHATEVER IT IS, IT WAS ENOUGH
TO GET YOU RATTLED.
- ANNE THREATENED MY FAMILY.
- WELL, I WOULDN'T CALL
THAT NOTHING.
- YEAH, WELL, I DON'T THINK
SHE HAS THE REACH TO GET
ANYTHING DONE FROM THE INSIDE,
BUT JUST TO BE SAFE,
I'M GONNA TAKE KATHY
AND THE KIDS
OVER TO HER SISTER'S
IN JERSEY.
I'M PROBABLY
OVERREACTING, BUT--
- I DON'T THINK SO.
HUANG THINKS
SHE'S EXTREMELY LETHAL.
YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY.
WE'LL HANDLE THE PRISONER.
ANNE TUCKED IN
FOR THE NIGHT?
- OH, CORRECTIONS GAVE HER
THE PRESIDENTIAL SUITE.
- THOSE YOUR FIVES
ON THE HOMICIDE?
- YEP. I'M JUST, UH, PUTTING
THE CHERRY ON TOP
BEFORE I GIVE IT TO THE FEDS.
- GOOD,
'CAUSE YOU'RE OFF THE CASE.
- WHAT?
- WE GOT A BIG PROBLEM.
- WITH ME?
- AND YOUR BUDDY,
ASH RAMSEY.
[pounding on door]
- COME ON, COME ON!
ASH!
- I HEARD YOU
THE FIRST 30 TIMES.
NOW, BUGGER OFF.
- ASH, IT'S OLIVIA BENSON!
- DON'T YOU EVER SLEEP?
- YOU DIDN'T ANSWER YOUR PHONE.
- SO YOU ASKED TRUCK ONE
TO BOOM MY DOOR?
- THEY'RE HERE
TO PROTECT YOU.
ANNE GILLETTE
JUST TOOK OUT A HIT ON US.
- AN INFORMANT AT RIKERS
RATTED ANNE OUT.
SAID SHE WAS BUYING
A CONTRACT ON US.
DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S MADE
CONTACT YET WITH A HIT MAN,
BUT CRAGEN DOESN'T WANT
TO TAKE ANY CHANCES.
- HENCE THE PLATOON
OUTSIDE MY DOOR.
- OLIVIA, GOOD TO SEE YOU.
THANKS FOR THE FILES, ASH.
[clears throat]
GOOD NIGHT.
- GOOD NIGHT.
- DON'T SAY IT--
CONFLICT OF INTEREST,
GROSS IMPROPRIETY,
COMPROMISING THE CASE.
- YOU COULD HAVE KISSED HER
GOOD NIGHT.
- I DIDN'T MAKE HER CLIMB
DOWN THE FIRE ESCAPE.
- [laughs]
OKAY.
- [clears throat]
SO HOW MUCH ARE WE WORTH?
- 100 GRAND.
- THAT'S ALL?
- FOR BOTH OF US.
- I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
SHE'D DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
- KILLING YOUR PARENTS
IS ONE THING, BUT...
MURDERING TWO COPS?
THAT'S A WHOLE NOTHER
BALL GAME.
- NOT FOR A PSYCHOPATH.
WE HAVEN'T SEEN
THE REAL ANNE GILLETTE YET,
JUST SHADOWS AND MASKS--
THE GRIEVING DAUGHTER,
THE FRIGHTENED VICTIM,
THE VIXEN, THE SOCIALITE.
- SO SHE'S GOOD
AT PLAYING PARTS,
BUT GREEDY AND THIEVING
DOESN'T MAKE HER A PSYCHOPATH.
- NOT ALL PSYCHOPATHS
ARE MURDERERS AND RAPISTS.
SOME NEVER COMMIT A CRIME.
THEY'VE ADAPTED THEIR AMORALITY
TO FIT INTO SOCIETY.
- LIKE YOUR FRIENDS
ON WALL STREET?
- WHO BETTER TO LEVERAGE
THE BUYOUT OF A COMPANY
WITHOUT GIVING A DAMN
ABOUT THE PEOPLE
WHO LOSE THEIR PENSIONS
ALONG WITH THEIR JOBS?
- YEAH, BUT IT'S NOT
THE SAME THING.
THEY DIDN'T BREAK THE LAW.
THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN EMBEZZLEMENT AND RAPE.
- OH, ABSOLUTELY.
RAPISTS GET 18 YEARS IN ATTICA.
WHITE-COLLAR CRIMINALS
GET 18 MONTHS IN CLUB FED.
I'M SICK OF WATCHING MY PERPS
GET SOFT TIME.
- SO WE BETTER MAKE SURE
THAT ANNE GILLETTE
GOES DOWN FOR MURDER.
- YOU'RE BOTH OFF THE CASE.
IT'S TOO DANGEROUS.
- YOU CAN'T REASSIGN US.
- IT'S ALREADY DONE.
YOU TOO, ELLIOT.
WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT KIND
OF ASSOCIATES ANNE GILLETTE HAS
OR WHETHER SHE HAS SOMETHING
IN PLAY ALREADY.
- WE PROMISED THE U.S. ATTORNEY
WE'D TRANSFER HER
TO THE FEDERAL JAIL TODAY.
- LET THE MARSHALS SERVICE
HANDLE THE PRISONER.
IT'S WHAT THEY DO.
- CAPTAIN, WHY DON'T YOU LET US
PICK HER UP FROM RIKERS
AND TRANSFER HER DOWN
TO LOCKUP AT FOLEY SQUARE?
- COUPLE OF HOURS, MAX.
- NO.
IT'S DONE.
- YOU GOING SOMEWHERE?
- OH. JUST GOT
A FEW ERRANDS TO RUN.
- OH, YEAH?
YOUR, UH...
DRY CLEANER HAVE, UH,
ANGER ISSUES?
- LIV, DON'T DO THIS.
- I'M NOT GONNA LET THAT BITCH
SCARE ME OFF.
- MAYBE YOU SHOULD.
I SENT MY FAMILY AWAY.
- THEY'RE CIVILIANS.
I GOT A JOB TO DO.
- ASH RAMSEY
PUT YOU UP TO THIS?
- NO. IT'S MY IDEA.
- WAIT A MINUTE.
WAIT A MINUTE.
AND YOU'RE JUST GONNA
DEAL ME OUT?
- I'M TRYING TO PROTECT YOU
FROM THE FALLOUT.
- WHILE YOU AND SIR G.Q.
JUST COWBOY IT UP, HUH?
- YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH ASH?
- NO, BUT YOU'RE MY PARTNER.
IF ANYBODY HAS YOUR BACK,
IT SHOULD BE ME.
- EL, IT'S FINE.
I CAN HANDLE ANNE GILLETTE.
YOU HANDLE THE CAPTAIN.
- KICKED UP TO THE FEDS.
I SUPPOSE
I SHOULD BE FLATTERED.
HOW ARE
THE FEDERAL FACILITIES?
- MARTHA STEWART CALLED IT
"GOING TO YALE."
- WELL, CLEVER MARTHA.
AT LEAST IT'LL HAVE
A BETTER CLASS OF PRISONER.
THIS PLACE IS FULL
OF THE MOST AWFUL WOMEN.
AND I HEAR
I'LL GET TO WEAR BLUE.
IT'S MUCH MORE FLATTERING
WITH MY COLORING.
I'M A SUMMER, YOU KNOW.
- WE ALL SET?
- SHALL WE?
- WHERE ARE WE?
- QUEENS.
- NO WONDER
I'VE NEVER BEEN HERE.
[tires screech]
- GO, GO, GO!
[horn honks]
STAY IN THE CAR.
[machine gunfire]
- COME ON, LET'S GO!
LET'S GO!
[tires squealing]
- WELL, THIS ISN'T
THE WALDORF.
BUT THEN AGAIN,
THE CONCIERGE
MIGHT HAVE OBJECTED
TO YOUR ATTIRE.
- YOU WANT TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE,
THERE'S THE DOOR.
- HOW ABOUT A RIDE TO
THE WESTCHESTER COUNTY AIRPORT?
THERE'S A JET WAITING.
- SURE. AS SOON AS I GET
THE REST OF MY MONEY.
- I TOLD YOU I'D WIRE IT
INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.
DON'T YOU TRUST ME?
- LOOK, LADY.
I JUST ICED TWO COPS FOR YOU.
I DON'T TRUST YOU ANY FURTHER
THAN I CAN THROW YOU.
- FINE.
I'LL MAKE THE CALL NOW.
- NO. NOT THAT PHONE.
NEVER KNOW
WHO MIGHT BE LISTENING.
- FIRST IT'S MY BOOTS.
NOW IT'S MY SHIRT.
[dialing phone in background]
- WE'LL GO SHOPPING.
- YOU MIND
IF WE WRAP THIS UP FIRST?
[line trilling]
- BONJOUR.
- BONJOUR. BANQUE DU GENEVE?
- OUI.
- OUI.
[speaking French]
- LOOK AT HER.
SHE'S ENJOYING THIS.
- THAT'S CORRECT.
ALL DONE.
WHERE ARE MY MANNERS?
MY FATHER ALWAYS TOLD ME
TO SEAL EVERY BUSINESS DEAL
WITH CHAMPAGNE.
DO YOU THINK THIS DUMP
HAS ROOM SERVICE?
- THEY DO NOW.
I HAVE TO SAY, WHEN MY CELL MATE
TOLD ME SHE KNEW A HIT MAN,
I HAD NO IDEA
YOU'D BE SO ATTRACTIVE.
- I'M THE TOTAL PACKAGE.
- I WISH I'D MET YOU SOONER.
YOUR SKILLS
WOULD HAVE COME IN HANDY.
- IN KILLING YOUR PARENTS?
- I DIDN'T.
- RELAX, BABY.
YOU'RE AMONG FRIENDS.
BUT AN AX--
THAT'S OLD-SCHOOL.
- YOU DIDN'T KNOW
MY MOTHER--
THE CONSTANT JUDGMENT,
THE CARPING.
AND THEN THE BITCH
TRIED TO TELL MY DADDY
TO CUT ME OUT OF THE WILL.
I HAD HIM WRAPPED
AROUND MY FINGER FOR YEARS.
BUT MOTHER
WAS OUT TO GET ME,
ALWAYS WHISPERING
NASTY THINGS IN HIS EAR.
I DIDN'T WANT HIM DEAD, BUT--
- COLLATERAL DAMAGE.
- EXACTLY.
[laughs]
YOU KNOW,
YOU SHOULD COME WITH ME...
DARLING.
I COULD ALWAYS USE A MAN
WITH YOUR SKILLS.
THE POSSIBILITIES FOR US
ARE ENDLESS.
RIO IS ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL
THIS TIME OF YEAR.
85 AND SUNNY,
AND CARNIVAL IS STARTING SOON.
[knocking on door]
- WHO IS IT?
- ROOM SERVICE.
- IT'S ABOUT TIME.
YOU BASTARD!
- YOU'LL BE TAKING
THIS TRIP ALONE, DARLING.
- GET OFF OF ME!
GET OFF OF ME!
I WILL KILL YOU.
I WILL KILL YOU ALL!
GET OFF OF ME!
GET OFF!
- FINALLY
THE MASK COMES OFF.
- WE GET TO SEE
THE REAL ANNE GILLETTE.
- WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?
