NYPD Blue (1993–2005): Season 12, Episode 17 - Sergeant Sipowicz' Lonely Hearts Club Band - full transcript

PREVIOUSLY ON "NYPD BLUE"...

GETTING PROMOTED TODAY?

YEAH.
SERGEANT SIPOWICZ.

YOU CLOSED THE DEAL.

IF I STARTED DOING THIS
FOR REAL,

IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT.

WHAT ABOUT DOING IT
FOR REAL?

I DON'T KNOW, BRIGID.

MAYBE WE SHOULD JUST HAVE
A DRINK AND TALK ABOUT THAT.

MEANTIME, SEE IF YOU CAN'T
CLOSE ANOTHER DEAL.

Man: ATTEN‐HUT!



PRESENT...HUNH!

ALL RIGHT, STEP ASIDE.
HOMICIDE.

HOW LONG YOU BEEN WAITING
TO SAY THAT TO ME?

FIRST THING I THOUGHT OF
WHEN I WOKE UP.

HEY, SARGE.

HE TOOK ONE IN THE CHEST.
NO SIGN OF A STRUGGLE.

MY GUESS ‐‐
FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH ‐‐

THEY EITHER TOOK HIM BY SURPRISE
OR SHOT HIM FROM A DISTANCE.

ANYTHING MISSING?

CHECK WITH THE GIRLS.

MAKE SURE YOUR MEN
SECURE THE CRIME SCENE.

IS THAT GONNA BE
THE LAST ONE TODAY

OR YOU GOT
A FEW MORE SAVED UP?

NO, THAT'S IT.



WHAT DO WE GOT?

NAME'S LESTER BAKEWELL ‐‐
HE'S AN ARMY RECRUITER

HERE TO MAKE A PRESENTATION
AT THE SCHOOL.

HOW DID THE JOB COME IN?

SECURITY GUARD HEARD SHOTS
AROUND 7:15.

THAT'S THE PARTNER. SHE WAS
IN THE SCHOOL WHEN IT HAPPENED.

NAME'S ANGELA PAYSON,
STAFF SERGEANT.

YOU SHOULD GET IN TOUCH WITH
THEIR C. O. AT FORT HAMILTON.

I GOT IT.

WE'LL START A CANVASS.

SERGEANT PAYSON,
I'M DETECTIVE CLARK.

TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED HERE.

SERGEANT BAKEWELL AND I ARRIVED
A LITTLE AFTER 7:00.

I WENT IN TO MAKE SURE
THE AUDITORIUM WAS OPEN.

WHEN I GOT BACK,
I SAW THAT HE'D BEEN SHOT.

DID YOU SEE ANYONE
HANGING AROUND OUTSIDE?

NO, SIR.

ANYTHING YOU CAN TELL ME
ABOUT SERGEANT BAKEWELL?

HE'D BEEN ASSIGNED TO
THE RECRUITING OFFICE
HERE THE LAST TWO YEARS.

HE WAS JUST
AN OUTSTANDING INDIVIDUAL,

AND I HATE THAT HE'S LYING
OUT THERE IN THE OPEN.

I KNOW.
THEY HAVE TO TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS.

LET'S FINISH UP
SO WE CAN COVER HIM.

[ SCHOOL BELL RINGS ]

I'D LIKE TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE
ABOUT MY UNCLE WHO'S MISSING.

HOW LONG
HAS HE BEEN MISSING?

FOUR DAYS.

DETECTIVE JONES
WILL TALK TO YOU.

YEAH, RIGHT THIS WAY.

HE'S ACTUALLY MY GREAT‐UNCLE.
HIS NAME'S GIUSEPPE CAMPO.

WE'RE BASQUE.

DO YOU THINK
SOMETHING HAPPENED TO HIM?

IT'S NOT LIKE HIM
TO BE MISSING FOR FOUR DAYS.

WHERE DOES HE LIVE?

SHELTERS, MOSTLY.

HE'S HOMELESS?

YEAH, HE LOST HIS APARTMENT
TWO YEARS AGO.

HE HAD A STROKE, AND THE
HOSPITAL BILLS CLEANED HIM OUT.

I'VE BEGGED HIM TO STAY
WITH ME ‐‐ HE WON'T.

IS THERE ANY ONE PART OF TOWN
HE STAYS IN?

NO, HE DOESN'T TELL ME.

HE MEETS ME AT VENIERO'S
EVERY MORNING.

I GIVE HIM CLOTHES
IF HE'LL TAKE THEM.

I MAKE SURE HIS MetroCard
HAS MONEY ON IT.

IS THERE SOMEONE ELSE
HE MIGHT HAVE GONE TO SEE?

I'M ALL THE FAMILY HE'S GOT
IN THIS COUNTRY.

ANY REASON SOMEONE
WOULD WANT TO HURT HIM?

NO, HE'S JUST
A SWEET OLD MAN.

THIS IS HIM.

I BOUGHT HIM THAT KNICKS HAT
AND SCARF FOR CHRISTMAS.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT,
HE'S A BASKETBALL FAN.

WE CAN CHECK THE HOSPITALS
TO SEE IF HE'S BEEN TREATED

IN AN EMERGENCY ROOM.

THERE'S NO GUARANTEE
WE'RE GONNA FIND HIM.

YOU'LL TRY, RIGHT?

RIGHT.

DETECTIVE JOHN CLARK ‐‐

WARRANT OFFICER STEVEN NUTTING,
ARMY C. I. D.

HE'S HANDLING THE INVESTIGATION
FOR THEM.

WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?

TOO SOON TO TELL. IT COULD
HAVE BEEN AN ABORTED ROBBERY.

SOMEBODY LOOKING TO STEAL
AUDIO‐VISUAL EQUIPMENT

COULD HAVE FOUND IT WITHOUT
A SOLDIER STANDING GUARD.

IT COULD HAVE BEEN
A SPUR‐OF‐THE‐MOMENT THING.

THAT HOUR OF THE MORNING,
IT'S PRETTY DESERTED.

I WOULDN'T GET MY HOPES UP
FOR WITNESSES.

FAMILY'S BEEN NOTIFIED?
THEY'RE IN GEORGIA.

A CHAPLAIN
AND A FIELD‐GRADE OFFICER

HAVE BEEN SENT DOWN
FROM FORT BENNING.

WE'RE LOOKING INTO
THE D. O. A.'s BACKGROUND?

THERE'S A GOOD FRIEND HE SERVED
WITH ‐‐ WORKS FOR THE MTA.

WE'RE MEETING WITH HIM
LATER.

THE DEAN OF STUDENTS
OF THE SCHOOL'S INSIDE.

WE'LL ASK HIM
IF THERE'S STUDENTS

WE OUGHT TO BE LOOKING AT.

WHY DON'T YOU SET STEVE UP
AT SIPOWICZ'S DESK.

SURE.

HAS THERE BEEN
ANY OPEN HOSTILITY

TOWARD MILITARY RECRUITERS
AT THE SCHOOL?

THERE HAVE BEEN A COUPLE
OF DEMONSTRATIONS ‐‐

FOR THE MOST PART,
PEACEFUL.

WHAT PART
WASN'T PEACEFUL?

WE HAVE ONE YOUNG MAN

WHOSE BROTHER WAS KILLED
IN IRAQ FOUR MONTHS AGO.

HE TRASHED THEIR TABLE AND MADE
WHAT YOU COULD CONSIDER THREATS,

ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T TAKE THEM
SERIOUSLY AT THE TIME.

ANY INDICATION THAT THIS STUDENT
HAD ACCESS TO FIREARMS?

LAST MONTH, HE GOT INTO
AN ARGUMENT WITH A CLASSMATE

AND THREATENED
TO SHOOT HIM.

WE SUSPENDED HIM
FOR TWO WEEKS.

WHEN I SPOKE
TO THE FATHER,

HE TOLD ME THAT THEY DID HAVE
A GUN IN THEIR APARTMENT ‐‐

A RIFLE,
I THINK HE SAID.

PAUL HAD SHOT IT MANY TIMES,
ACCORDING TO HIM.

SAID HE GOT A MERIT BADGE
IN MARKSMANSHIP

FROM THE BOY SCOUTS.

WHAT'S THIS BOY'S FULL NAME,
MR. DIXON?

PAUL CORBELLI.
[ SIGHS ]

AND I HOPE TO GOD
HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS.

WHAT DO YOU GOT, SARGE?

YEAH, YOU PUT IT OUT
OVER THE RADIO ‐‐

YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
A MISSING PERSONS

WEARING
KNICKS PARAPHERNALIA?

KING TUT HERE JUST GOT PICKED UP
FOR MARIJUANA POSSESSION.

THAT'S A WHITE MALE
WE WERE LOOKING FOR.

I KNOW THAT, MEDAVOY.

BUT UNLESS YOU THINK TUT'S
ON SPIKE LEE'S CHRISTMAS LIST,

MAYBE YOU OUGHT TO ASK HIM
WHERE HE GOT THAT STUFF FROM.

ALL RIGHT, WHY DON'T WE GO TALK
IN HERE FOR A SECOND, KING.

WHAT I GOT TO DO
THAT FOR?

WE WANT
TO ASK YOU SOMETHING.

YOU AIN'T NEVER
PEED IN THE STREET?

YOU'RE HERE
FOR MARIJUANA.

WHICH THEY ONLY FOUND
ON ACCOUNT

THEY WAS HARASSING ME
FOR URINATION.

AND THIS WHOLE THING
GETS EXCLUDED ‐‐ EX POST FACTO.

DON'T BE RUNNING OFF
AT THE MOUTH OUT HERE.

THEY SAID TO COME WITH THEM ‐‐
YOU COME WITH THEM.

Medavoy:
WE'RE LOOKING FOR SOMEBODY

WHO WAS LAST SEEN
WEARING A HAT LIKE THAT.

THESE HATS
ARE EVERYWHERE.

AND THE SCARF
AND THE JACKET.

THEY MINE.

WHERE'D YOU GET THEM?

I DON'T KNOW
WHERE I GOT THEM.

I HAD THEM.
I HAD THEM FOR YEARS.

THEY LOOK NEW.

YES, THEY DO LOOK NEW.
YOU KNOW WHY THAT IS?

I TAKE CARE OF THEM.

WE FIND THE GUY
WHOSE CLOTHES THESE ARE,

IT'S GONNA BE
A BAD DAY FOR THE KING.

HOW BAD?

BAD.

WELL, A GUY GIVE ME THEM.

LET'S GO.
WHAT DID I DO?

STOP WASTING OUR TIME
AND TELL US THE TRUTH.

I GOT MY COAT TOOK ‐‐
THE TRUTH!

I GOT MY COAT TOOK.
I GOT MY SHIRT TOOK.

I WAS EXPOSED
TO THE ELEMENTS.

WHERE WAS THE GUY
YOU TOOK THEM OFF?

IN THE DUMPSTER.

WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM?
NOT A DAMN THING!

HE WAS OUT.

I TOOK WHAT I TOOK,

AND THEN I SPREADED
THE GARBAGE OVER HIM

SO HE WOULD NOT BE EXPOSED
TO THE ELEMENTS,

WHICH I DIDN'T
HAVE TO DO.

AND THEN
I CLIMBED ON OUT.

LET'S GO.

WHERE WE GOING?

YOU'RE GONNA SHOW US
THE DUMPSTER.

KEEP AN EYE ON THIS GUY
WHILE WE GET OUR COATS.

GOOD CALL, SARGE.

WHERE WERE YOU AROUND 7:00
THIS MORNING, PAUL?

HOME.
ANYONE THERE WITH YOU?

MY FATHER ALREADY LEFT
FOR WORK.

MY MOTHER'S DEAD,
SO NO.

WE KNOW ABOUT
YOUR BROTHER, PAUL.

UH‐HUH.

IT'S TOUGH TO LOSE
SOMEONE THAT CLOSE.

LAST MONTH,
YOU THREATENED TO SHOOT

ANOTHER STUDENT
AT YOUR SCHOOL.

THAT WAS JUST TALK.

YOUR FATHER HAS A HUNTING RIFLE
REGISTERED IN HIS NAME.

YEAH, I BROUGHT IT TO SCHOOL
IN MY BACKPACK.

ARE YOU BEING SARCASTIC?

THAT TELLS ME YOU'RE NOT
TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY.

WHERE'S THE GUN NOW?
I HAVE NO IDEA.

THIS WAS AN AMERICAN SOLDIER
MURDERED ON AMERICAN SOIL.

DO YOU BLAME THE ARMY
FOR YOUR BROTHER'S DEATH?

I BLAME A LOT OF PEOPLE.

WE KNOW YOU DEMONSTRATED
TO KEEP THE RECRUITERS OUT.

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?
THEY TAKE MY PICTURE?

YOU WERE OBSERVED BEHAVING
IN A THREATENING MANNER.

I THOUGHT
WE HAVE FREE SPEECH.

ISN'T THAT WHAT MY BROTHER
GOT KILLED DEFENDING?

WHEN'S THE LAST TIME
YOU WERE OUT OF THIS COUNTRY?

I THINK MAYBE WE NEED
TO FAMILIARIZE HIM

WITH SOME OF THE INTERROGATION
TECHNIQUES WE HAVE AVAILABLE.

LIKE WHAT?
STAND UP.

JUST TELL US WHEN THE LAST TIME
WAS YOU WERE OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

LAST SUMMER.

WHERE DID YOU GO?

SPAIN AND MOROCCO.
WHERE DID YOU GO
IN MOROCCO?

MARRAKECH.
WHO PAID FOR THE TRIP?

I PAID FOR PART OF IT.
MY GRANDMA PAID FOR PART OF IT.

YOU'RE LYING! STAND UP!
I'M NOT LYING!

YOU'RE GONNA KEEP STANDING
UNTIL YOU TELL US THE TRUTH.

WE'RE GONNA GET YOUR FATHER'S
GUN AND KNOW IF IT WAS FIRED.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO TO YOU?

YOU HATED THOSE RECRUITERS,
DIDN'T YOU?

DIDN'T YOU?!

THEY GOT MY BROTHER
TO ENLIST.

MY BROTHER GOT KILLED!
HOW DO YOU THINK I FEEL?!

DID YOU SHOOT
THE RECRUITER, PAUL?

NO, SIR.

YOU'RE GONNA STAY ON YOUR FEET
A LONG TIME, SON.

CAN I TALK TO YOU
OUTSIDE, STEVE?

YOU DON'T WANT ME TO CATCH YOU
SITTING DOWN WHILE WE'RE GONE.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
HE'S READY TO GO.

I THINK YOU'RE COMING ON
A LITTLE STRONG.
IT'S FIRST AND GOAL,
JOHN.

IT'S NOT FIRST AND GOAL.
YOU GOT A SCARED KID.

HE'S 17 YEARS OLD.
AND HE'S SCARED.

GOOD. I WANT HIM SCARED.

WHY DON'T WE GET HIM TO RELAX,
AND WE'LL GO AT HIM AGAIN.

I GUESS SINCE WE'RE ON YOUR
TURF, I GOT TO DEFER TO YOU.

I APPRECIATE THAT.

SO WHAT DO WE DO NOW?

TELL HIM
TO GET OFF HIS FEET

AND WE'LL GET BACK TO HIM
IN A LITTLE WHILE.

THAT WAY, HE STARTS THINKING
THAT WE'RE BOTH HIS FRIENDS.

THAT'S THE LAST THING
I WANT HIM THINKING.

BUT YOU GOT IT.

EMERGENCY SERVICES HAS GOT
A JUMPER ON THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE.

THEY'RE GONNA BE A WHILE.

SO WE GOT TO SEARCH THIS
OURSELVES?

I DON'T WANT TO GO
IN THERE.

I'LL GO IN.

I JUST WISH I HAD A CHANGE
OF CLOTHES AT THE HOUSE.

OH, HAVING A CHANGE OF CLOTHES
BRINGS IT AROUND TO ME?

DID I SAY THAT?

EHHH.

ALL RIGHT. HERE.

THAT PROTECTIVE LAYER OF GARBAGE
IS THERE, LIKE I SAID.

YEAH, KING, IT IS.

JUST WHAT I WANTED TO DO
WHEN I GREW UP.

[ SIGHS ] MAN.

HERE'S JOHNNY.

OH, HE DEAD, RIGHT?

OH, YEAH.

I DON'T KNOW IF I'VE MENTIONED
THIS TO YOU BEFORE,

BUT I THINK YOU LOOK GREAT
IN A UNIFORM.

THANKS, JOHN.

GOT A COPY OF THE 61
ON THE SHOOTING.

HOW COME
YOU'REBRINGING IT UP?

FIRST OFFICER'S BUSY.
I THOUGHT I'D TAKE CARE OF IT.

WHAT?

NOTHING WRONG
WITH WANTING TO VISIT, ANDY.

ANY MOTIVE
ON THE SHOOTING?

NOTHING SO FAR.

ANYTHING
ON THE D. O. A.'s BACKGROUND?

IT'S JOHN'S CASE.
I DON'T KNOW.

[ SIGHS ]

ANYBODY BEEN ASSIGNED
TO MY DESK?

THEY GOT THE ARMY C. I. D. GUY
USING IT,

BUT IT'S JUST TEMPORARILY.

WE'RE DUE IN COURT.

WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

I'LL TAKE HIM
UP TO ANTICRIME.

SHOULD HAVE
AIRED HIMSELF OFF

IF HE KNEW HE HAD
TRIM WAITING FOR HIM.

SHUT YOUR MOUTH.

WHAT DID YOU FIND,
MEDAVOY?

THE GUY HE TOOK THE HAT OFF
IS D. O. A.

KING TUT
LOOK GOOD FOR IT?

WE'RE WAITING TO HEAR FROM
THE M.E. ON CAUSE OF DEATH.

WE FOUND
THIS BOOK OF MATCHES ON HIM.

I'LL TALK
TO THE SECTOR COPS.

MMM...

YOU DO STINK.

I HAD TO GO
IN A DUMPSTER.

WHY?

YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW.

YEAH.
YOU'RE PROBABLY RIGHT.

HERE.

WHAT'S THIS?

OPEN IT.

WOW.

"SCOFIELD REALTY."

"GREG MEDAVOY, SALES."

WHEN YOU'RE READY.

THIS IS A REALLY NICE THING,
BRIGID.

I DIDN'T BUILD A REAL‐ESTATE
BUSINESS IN MANHATTAN

BEING TENTATIVE.

NO ONE WOULD EVER
ACCUSE YOU OF THAT.

ANYWAY, GIVE ME A CALL.

YEAH.

LET ME WALK YOU OUT.

HAVE A SEAT.

PAUL HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH
THAT RECRUITER GETTING SHOT.

WHAT TIME DID YOU LEAVE
FOR WORK THIS MORNING?

ABOUT 6:30.

WHERE WAS YOUR SON
WHEN YOU LEFT?

SLEEPING IN HIS BED. HE'S NOT
THE EASIEST KID TO WAKE UP.

YOU OWN A GUN?

I HAVE AN OLD HUNTING RIFLE ‐‐
REMINGTON 3006.

WHERE DO YOU KEEP IT?

IN MY BEDROOM CLOSET.

WHEN'S THE LAST TIME
YOU SAW IT THERE?

I DON'T KNOW.

YOUR SON EVER TALK TO YOU ABOUT
HOW HE FELT TOWARD THE ARMY?

WHAT HE SAYS, HE SAYS
BECAUSE OF HIS BROTHER.

WHAT DOES HE SAY?

BRIAN WAS WHO HE LOOKED UP TO ‐‐
MORE THAN ME.

BRIAN WAS EVERYTHING
TO THIS KID.

DOES PAUL KNOW
HOW TO USE A GUN?

HE LEARNED
IN THE BOY SCOUTS.

WHAT ARE THE CIRCUMSTANCES
SURROUNDING HIS TRIP TO MOROCCO?

HE AND A FRIEND SIGNED UP WITH
SOME STUDENT‐TRAVEL PROGRAM.

WHY MOROCCO?

THEY GOT IT IN THEIR HEADS
THEY WANT TO GO THERE.

DO YOU HAVE ANY OBJECTION
IF WE TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR GUN?

NOT AT ALL.

WE'RE ALSO GONNA NEED TO TAKE
A LOOK AT YOUR SON'S COMPUTER.

IF HE'S BEEN ASSOCIATING

WITH ANY SUSPECTED
TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS,

WE'RE GONNA FIND THAT OUT.

EVERY WEB SITE ‐‐
WE'RE GONNA KNOW ABOUT IT.

THE BEST WAY TO HELP YOUR SON
IS TO TELL US THE TRUTH.

I'M TELLING YOU
THE TRUTH.

IT IS POSSIBLE YOUR SON COULD BE
CONCEALING THINGS FROM YOU.

I RAISED MY BOYS
TO LOVE THEIR COUNTRY,

AND I GOT ONE
WHO DIED FOR IT.

AND THERE AIN'T A DAY
THAT GOES BY

WHEN ME AND HIS BROTHER
DON'T THINK OF HIM.

I STILL LOVE MY COUNTRY,
THOUGH.

DOES YOUR SON?

EVEN IF HE DON'T, HE WOULD NEVER
CAUSE ANOTHER FAMILY

TO GO THROUGH
WHAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH.

I'M WALKING AROUND TALKING
TO MYSELF SINCE I FOUND OUT.

YOU GUYS WERE CLOSE?

WE HATED EACH OTHER
AT FIRST.

HE'S FROM VALDOSTA, GEORGIA.
I'M FROM WASHINGTON HEIGHTS.

THOUGHT HE WAS JUST
ANOTHER CRACKER ASSHOLE.

THEN WE GOT DUG IN TOGETHER
OVER IN DESERT STORM,

AND WE SAVED EACH OTHER.

YOU STAY IN TOUCH?
MM‐HMM.

SO WHAT WAS
GOING ON WITH HIM?

HE WAS LOOKING AT A PROMOTION
TO MASTER SERGEANT.

THEY WERE GONNA SEND HIM TO
LANGUAGE SCHOOL TO LEARN ARABIC.

JUST FOUND HIMSELF A '66
CHEVELLE HE WAS GONNA RESTORE.

AND HE WAS IN LOVE.

DON'T GET MUCH BETTER
THAN THAT.

WHO WAS HE IN LOVE WITH?

I DON'T THINK HE'D WANT ME
BROADCASTING THAT.

I'M SURE HE'D WANT US
TO FIND OUT WHO KILLED HIM.

HE WAS IN LOVE
WITH THIS CHICK HE WORKED WITH.

YOU KNOW HER NAME?
ANGELA.

THEY DIDN'T WANT IT TO GET OUT
'CAUSE THEY WORKED TOGETHER,

AND HER DIVORCE
WASN'T FINAL.

HE SAID IT WAS FOR REAL.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP,
SERGEANT.

HI, UH...

WHY DON'T WE GO
BACK IN HERE.

PLEASE, HAVE A SEAT.

YOUR UNCLE'S DEAD.

THE MEDICAL EXAMINER SAID
HE PROBABLY DIED

THREE OR FOUR DAYS AGO.

THEY'LL KNOW MORE
AFTER THE AUTOPSY.

WHERE DID YOU FIND HIM?
THE LOWER EAST SIDE.

JUST LYING DOWN
IN THE STREET?

HE WAS IN A DUMPSTER.

SORRY.

DID SOMEBODY KILL HIM?

IT'S POSSIBLE.

WE WON'T KNOW UNTIL WE HEAR
FROM THE MEDICAL EXAMINER.

THIS IS WHAT I WAS AFRAID
WAS GOING TO HAPPEN TO HIM.

THERE'S A MATCHBOOK
FROM A RESTAURANT ‐‐ ZAZO.

IS THAT SOMEPLACE
YOUR UNCLE WOULD HAVE GONE?

NO.

HE WAS IN A DUMPSTER
BEHIND THERE.

HOW DID YOU FIND HIM?

WE GOT LUCKY.

SOMEBODY WAS PICKED UP WEARING
THAT KNICKS HAT YOU GAVE HIM.

DID HE KILL HIM?

WE'RE NOT SURE
ANYONE KILLED HIM.

WHAT DID HE HAVE ON HIM?
A COMB? A CRUCIFIX?

A FEW DOLLARS
AND A MetroCard?

WE'LL LET YOU KNOW
WHEN WE HEAR SOMETHING.

DO YOU NEED A RIDE
ANYWHERE?

NO, I THINK I'M JUST
GONNA TAKE A WALK.

WHERE DO WE STAND
WITH THE KID?

I DON'T THINK HE DID IT.

WE HAVE A DIFFERENCE
OF OPINION ABOUT THAT.

WE JUST TALKED TO
ONE OF THE D. O. A.'s FRIENDS.

BAKEWELL AND HIS PARTNER
WERE HAVING AN AFFAIR.

YOU TALK TO HER HUSBAND?
I'M GONNA GET AHOLD OF HIM.

I HOPE TO GOD WE'RE NOT ABOUT
TO PUT THESE PEOPLE

THROUGH GOSSIP‐MONGERING
FOR NO GOOD REASON.

YOU GO WHERE
THE FACTS TAKE YOU.

WHERE THE FACTS HAVE TAKEN US
IS TO AN INDIVIDUAL

WHO FITS THE PROFILE
OF NATIVE‐BORN ENEMY COMBATANT

TO A "T."

I DON'T KNOW WHY
WE'RE NOT STAYING WITH THAT.

WE'RE CHECKING OUT HIS ALIBI,
PURSUING OTHER POSSIBILITIES.

IF IT WERE UP TO ME, I'D BE
PUTTING HIS FEET TO THE FIRE.

MAYBE THAT'S WHAT
YOU'LL WIND UP DOING.

FOR NOW, YOU NEED TO TALK TO
SERGEANT PAYSON AND HER HUSBAND.

THAT'S IT.

YEAH? ALL RIGHT.

THANKS.

MEDAVOY.

I TALKED TO THE GUYS WHO HEAD
THE SECTOR THAT RESTAURANT'S IN.

THEY RESPONDED TO A COMPLAINT
LAST WEEK INVOLVING THE MANAGER

AND A STREET GUY WHO MATCHED
THE DESCRIPTION OF YOUR D. O. A.

WE'RE JUST ON OUR WAY
OVER THERE.

THERE YOU GO.

THERE'S A FOOTMAN CALLING
FOR A SUPERVISOR.

HE'S GOT ONE UNDER
AT 13th AND 3rd.

I'M ON MY WAY.

HEY,
HOW ARE YOU DOING?

I'M ALL RIGHT.

SOMEBODY CALL YOU
TO COME IN?

I'M SUPPOSED TO TALK
TO DETECTIVE CLARK.

UPSTAIRS TO THE LEFT.

THANKS.

CAN YOU THINK OF ANYONE

WHO MIGHT HAVE HAD A GRUDGE
AGAINST SERGEANT BAKEWELL?

NO.

DO YOU KNOW
IF HE OWED ANYONE MONEY?

IF HE WAS A GAMBLER?
NEITHER OF THOSE THINGS.

WHAT WAS THE NATURE
OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO HIM?

WE WORKED TOGETHER.
WE WERE FRIENDS.

THAT'S IT?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHY YOU'RE ASKING ME THIS.

WE RECEIVED INFORMATION
YOU WERE HAVING AN AFFAIR.

HOW IS THAT RELEVANT?

MAY NOT BE.

IT JUST HELPS IF WE HAVE ALL
THE INFORMATION IN FRONT OF US

SO WE KNOW
WHAT WE'RE DEALING WITH.

LES AND I
WERE SEEING EACH OTHER.

WE DIDN'T PLAN ON IT.

WE DIDN'T WANT IT TO HAPPEN,
BUT IT DID.

WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING
ABOUT THAT BEFORE?

I DON'T THINK
IT'S RELEVANT.

DOES YOUR HUSBAND KNOW?

MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE BEEN
SEPARATED FOR EIGHT MONTHS.

OUR DIVORCE WILL BE FINAL
THIS JUNE.

DOES HE KNOW?

YES.

WHEN DID HE FIND OUT?

ABOUT A YEAR AGO.

HE SUSPECTED SOMETHING WAS
GOING ON, AND I DIDN'T DENY IT.

I BEGGED HIM TO FORGIVE ME.
I STOPPED SEEING LES.

I PUT IN FOR A TRANSFER.

I TRIED TO BE A PERFECT WIFE,
BUT I WASN'T ONE ‐‐

NOT TO CARL.

I TOLD HIM
HE COULD HAVE EVERYTHING.

I WAS FILING FOR DIVORCE.

HOW DID HE REACT?

HE WAS SAD.

I WAS SAD.

WE'VE BOTH BEEN DOING OUR BEST
TO BE CIVIL TO EACH OTHER

AND GET ON WITH OUR LIVES.

IS YOUR HUSBAND
IN THE SERVICE?

RETIRED.

WHERE DOES HE LIVE?

COMMACK.

WE'RE GONNA NEED
HIS PHONE NUMBER.

TELL HIM I'M OKAY.

YOU THE MANAGER?

WON'T HAVE A TABLE
UNTIL 10:30.

WE DON'T WANT A TABLE.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

YOU RECOGNIZE HIM?

NOPE.

WE GOT A REPORT
YOU GOT INTO A FIGHT WITH HIM.

WHO SAID THAT?
SOMEONE WHO SAW YOU.

WOULDN'T BE CAROL BURNETT'S
EVIL TWIN, WOULD IT?

WHO?

SHE'S THIS LUNATIC
WHO LIVES UPSTAIRS.

SHE'S TRYING TO GET US
KICKED OUT OF THE BUILDING.

ARE YOU SAYING YOU DIDN'T HAVE
A FIGHT WITH HIM?

I'M SAYING I DON'T REMEMBER.
HUMAN FLOTSAM COME AND GO.

IF THEY MAKE PROBLEMS FOR ME,
I MAKE PROBLEMS FOR THEM.

I DON'T CLUTTER MY BRAIN
TRYING TO REMEMBER FACES.

THIS GUY MIGHT HAVE DIED
THAT NIGHT.

OH.
SORRY TO HEAR THAT.

THAT WOULD MAKE YOU THE LAST
PERSON TO BE SEEN WITH HIM.

WHAT ARE YOU SUGGESTING ‐‐
THAT I KILLED HIM?

WHAT POSSIBLE REASON
WOULD I HAVE FOR DOING THAT?

YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT THIS IS
A HOMICIDE INVESTIGATION.

THAT MEANS WE'RE GONNA TALK
TO YOUR WHOLE STAFF

AND EVERYONE
UP AND DOWN THE BLOCK.

IF ANYONE SAYS
YOU PUT YOUR HANDS ON HIM,

YOU BECOME
SUSPECT NUMBER ONE.

THAT MEANS IF THERE'S
ANYTHING YOU HAVE TO SAY,

NOW WOULD BE THE TIME
TO SAY IT.

THE ONLY THING
I HAVE TO SAY

IS THAT I HOPE THIS IS SOME
LONG‐LOST ROCKEFELLER COUSIN

OR RON PERLMAN'S UNCLE,

'CAUSE I HATE TO THINK WITH
EVERYTHING GOING ON IN THE CITY,

YOU GUYS ARE SPENDING
THIS MUCH TIME

TRYING TO FIGURE OUT
WHO DID WHAT TO SOME BUM.

WE NEED A STAFF LIST
WITH CONTACT NUMBERS.

HMM, NO RESPONSE.
DULY NOTED.

WHAT DO YOU GOT?

I'M ABOUT TO WRITE THIS GUY UP
FOR BEING DOUBLE‐PARKED.

WHEN HE COMES OUT OF THE
BUILDING, HE STARTS IN ON ME.

I GIVE HIM HIS WARNING.

WHEN HE WOULDN'T STOP,
I PUT THE CUFFS ON HIM.

WHEN I GET MY TURN?

I'LL BE RIGHT WITH YOU.

DID HE PUT HIS HANDS
ON YOU?

I THINK IT WAS HEADED
IN THAT DIRECTION.

BUT IT HADN'T HAPPENED?

NO.

ALL RIGHT.
WHAT'S YOUR STORY?

I WORK FOR THE MEDICAL LAB.

I COME HERE EVERY DAY
TO PICK UP THE BLOOD SAMPLES

FROM THE DOCTORS' OFFICES.

IT TAKES ME 30 SECONDS.

I WALK IN, I GRAB THE BOX,
AND I WALK OUT.

WHAT DID YOU SAY
TO THE OFFICER?

I SAID, "I'M TRYING
TO MAKE A LIVING."

THAT'S IT?

I TRIED TO SHOW THE MAN RESPECT
WHEN I FIRST CAME OUT.

I TOLD HIM,
"I GOT OVER 30 STOPS TO MAKE.

THERE'S NO PLACE TO PARK."

I DON'T LEAVE MY CAR BUT FOR
A MINUTE, BUT HE DON'T LISTEN.

HE SAY, "IT'S TOO LATE."

THAT'SWHEN I GOT MAD.

ALL RIGHT.
STEP BACK HERE A SECOND.

COME HERE.

[ SIGHS ]
IS THAT TRUE WHAT HE SAID?

PRETTY MUCH.

WHAT DO YOU
WANT TO DO HERE?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

DO YOU WANT TO CREATE
A SITUATION?

THIS IS A WORKING MAN.
HE'S NOT STICKING NOBODY UP.

YOU'RE GONNA COST HIM TWO DAYS'
WAGES WITH THAT TICKET,

AND THEN WHEN HE GETS MAD,
YOU'RE GONNA COLLAR HIM?

WHAT SHOULD I HAVE DONE?

YOU SEE HIM GO INSIDE
THE BUILDING ‐‐ YOU WAIT.

IF HE'S IN THERE FOR A WHILE,
THEN YOU WRITE HIM UP.

IF HE COMES RIGHT BACK OUT
AGAIN, YOU TALK TO HIM.

WHAT DO I SAY?

TELL HIM YOU'RE TRYING
TO KEEP TRAFFIC MOVING.

IF HE'S A RIGHT GUY,
YOU BE A RIGHT GUY.

ABOUT HOW LONG DO I WAIT
WHILE HE'S IN THE BUILDING?

[ SIGHS ]
FIVE MINUTES.

I'M SORRY.

IT'S THE KIND OF THING YOU GET
A FEEL FOR AFTER A WHILE.

WHAT DO I DO NOW?

GIVE ME THE SUMMONS.

GO OVER THERE,
TAKE THE CUFFS OFF,

TELL HIM TO HAVE
A NICE DAY.

YES, SIR.

I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE RETIRED
FROM THE MILITARY?

YEAH ‐‐ ARMY.

WHAT RANK
DID YOU RETIRE AT?
COLONEL.

YOU HEARD WHAT HAPPENED
THIS MORNING?

I DID.

DID YOU KNOW
SERGEANT BAKEWELL?

YEAH.
HOW DID YOU KNOW HIM?

NO WAY TO SAY IT
BUT TO SAY IT.

HE AND MY SOON‐TO‐BE EX‐WIFE
WERE SEEING EACH OTHER.

WE HAVE TO ASK YOU THIS,

BUT WHERE WERE YOU BETWEEN
7:00 AND 8:00 THIS MORNING?

I WORK FOR THE NASSAU
COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT.

FROM ABOUT 7:30 ON, I WAS
OBSERVING A PREPAREDNESS DRILL

AT ST. CATHERINE'S HOSPITAL
IN ROCKVILLE CENTER.

AND THERE'S PEOPLE
WHO CAN VOUCH FOR THAT?

SURE.
IT'S JUST FOR THE REPORT.

I UNDERSTAND.
HOW'S ANGELA DOING?

SHE'S DOING OKAY.

I'M AWFUL SORRY
THIS HAS HAPPENED.

WHEN'S THE LAST TIME
YOU SAW SERGEANT BAKEWELL?

I RAN INTO HIM AT ANGELA'S
WHEN I WAS DROPPING THINGS OFF.

THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN
ABOUT A MONTH AGO.

HOW WAS THAT?
WE CONDUCTED OURSELVES
LIKE GENTLEMEN.

HOW ARE YOU AND YOUR WIFE
HANDLING THE DIVORCE?

WE'VE HAD OUR MOMENTS.

PROBABLY BOTH SAID SOME THINGS
WE'VE REGRETTED,

BUT ONCE YOU COME TO THE
CONCLUSION THE MARRIAGE IS OVER,

YOU MAKE YOUR PEACE
WITH IT.

WE'RE GONNA NEED THE NAMES OF
THOSE PEOPLE FROM THE HOSPITAL.

I'M GONNA HAVE TO CALL YOU
FROM MY OFFICE.

I JUST MET THEM TODAY.

YOU'RE THE HOSTESS
AT ZAZO?

MM‐HMM.

WERE YOU WORKING NIGHTS
LAST WEEK?

I WAS.

DO YOU RECALL
ANY INCIDENTS?

UH...LIKE WHAT?

LIKE ANY ALTERCATIONS
OUTSIDE THE RESTAURANT.

THIS IS ABOUT
OUR FEARLESS MANAGER?

WAS HE
IN AN ALTERCATION?

CONSTANTLY.

ARE YOU GONNA TELL HIM
I SAID THAT?

NO, NOT IF YOU DON'T
WANT US TO.

DO YOU RECOGNIZE
THIS GUY?

UM...

YEAH, I DO.

WAS HE ONE OF THE PEOPLE
THAT YOUR FEARLESS MANAGER

WAS IN AN ALTERCATION WITH?

THAT'S NOT WHERE
I RECOGNIZE HIM FROM.

I'VE SEEN HIM
HANGING AROUND THE KITCHEN.

I THINK HE WAS FRIENDS
WITH NESTER.

WHO'S THAT?

HE CLEANS UP
FROM MIDNIGHT TO 6:00.

WHAT CAN YOU TELL US
ABOUT HIM?

WELL, I KNOW
HE'S BEEN IN PRISON.

AND I KNOW
HE DOESN'T LIKE IT

WHEN SOMEONE MOVES HIS MOP
OR MOP BUCKET OR ANYTHING

'CAUSE I'VE SEEN HIM GO
STARK‐RAVING NUTS THE NEXT DAY.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT HIS
RELATIONSHIP IS WITH THIS GUY?

NO IDEA.

WE APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.

OH. ANYTIME.

ANDY...

YOU GOT A MINUTE?

YEAH, SURE.

[ SIGHS ]

THE ARMY GUY I'M WORKING WITH
LIKES THIS HIGH SCHOOL KID.

WHO DO YOU LIKE?

D.O.A. WAS BANGING HIS PARTNER,
WHO WAS MARRIED

TO THIS EX‐MILITARY GUY SHE WAS
IN THE PROCESS OF DIVORCING.

YOU TALK TO HIM?

HE SAID
ALL THE RIGHT THINGS.

THE ONLY THING
BOTHERING ME

WAS THEY'VE BEEN SEPARATED
NINE MONTHS ‐‐

HE'S STILL WEARING
HIS WEDDING RING.

MAY OR MAY NOT BE
SIGNIFICANT.

SIGNIFICANT MAY OR MAY NOT MEAN
HE COMMITTED MURDER.

THIS KID LOST HIS BROTHER
IN IRAQ.

HE KNOWS HOW TO SHOOT.

HE SHOWS
SOME ANTISOCIAL TENDENCIES.

I CAN'T EXCLUDE HIM.

WHAT'S THE D. O. A.'s PARTNER
GIVING YOU?

SHE ADMITTED TO THE AFFAIR AFTER
WE GOT IT FROM SOMEBODY ELSE.

I'D GO AT HER AGAIN.

WITH WHAT?

MAKE HER THINK YOU'RE ABOUT
TO COLLAR THIS HIGH SCHOOL KID.

[ SIGHS ]

AIN'T THE SAME
WORKING THE CASE WITHOUT YOU.

TELL YOUR PARTNER
WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

DON'T SANDBAG HIM.

LET HIM THINK
YOU'RE LISTENING TO HIM

THE SAME AS YOU WANT HIM
LISTENING TO YOU.

ARE YOU SURE THIS AIN'T JUST FOR
TODAY YOU'RE WORKING DOWN HERE?

GO ON.
GET OUT OF HERE.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

NESTER DUARTE?

YEAH.

DETECTIVES JONES AND MEDAVOY.
WANT TO LET US IN FOR A MINUTE?

WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?

LET'S TALK INSIDE.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

YOU KNOW THIS GUY?

NO.

HOW MUCH TIME YOU GOT LEFT
ON YOUR PAROLE?

FIVE YEARS, NINE MONTHS.

THINK WHETHER LYING IS GONNA
GIVE US GROUNDS TO VIOLATE YOU,

AND THEN LOOK AGAIN.

YEAH, I KNOW HIM.

HE'S A HOMELESS GUY.
SEEN HIM AROUND THE RESTAURANT.

HOW WELL
DO YOU KNOW HIM?

JUST SEEN HIM AROUND.

YOU'VE HAD NO CONTACT
WITH HIM AT ALL?
NO!

WHY ARE WE HERE,
NESTER?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

SOMEBODY TOLD US
THEY SAW YOU TALKING TO HIM ‐‐

HANGING AROUND WITH HIM.

WE KNOW YOU'RE LYING
ABOUT THAT.

WHAT ELSE ARE YOU GONNA
LIE TO US ABOUT?

[ SIGHS ]
I KNEW THIS WAS COMING.

[ CHUCKLES ]

JUST TELL US THE TRUTH.

CAME BACK AROUND THE KITCHEN
ABOUT A MONTH AGO,

ASKED IF HE COULD WORK
FOR FOOD.

I HEARD THE ACCENT.
I ASKED HIM IF HE WAS BASQUE.

IS THAT WHAT YOU ARE?
RIGHT.

SO I SAID I'D GIVE HIM
SOMETHING TO EAT.

HE SAID HE HAD
TO WORK FOR IT,

SO I TOLD HIM
HE COULD SWEEP THE ALLEY.

HE STARTED COMING
EVERY NIGHT.

HE'D SWEEP
AND THEN WE'D EAT.

AND I'D LISTEN TO HIM
TALK ABOUT ORTHEZ.

WHAT'S ORTHEZ?

WHERE HE WAS FROM.
YOU KNOW?

WHERE MY GRANDFATHER
WAS FROM.

I EVEN MANAGED TO SAY
A FEW WORDS TO HIM IN EUSKARA.

THAT'S A BASQUE LANGUAGE.

HOW DID HE WIND UP
IN THE DUMPSTER, NESTER?

LAST TUESDAY, HE CAME IN, AND HE
SAID HE DIDN'T FEEL SO GOOD.

SO I TOLD HIM
THAT HE COULD GO LIE DOWN

ON THE COT
WE KEEP IN THE BACK.

WHEN I WENT IN TO CHECK ON HIM,
HE WAS DEAD.

YOU MOVED HIM?

THEY WOULD HAVE FIRED ME
IN A SECOND

IF THEY FOUND OUT
WHAT I WAS DOING WITH HIM.

SO I SAID A PRAYER
OVER HIM,

AND I SLUNG HIS BODY
OVER MY SHOULDER,

AND I CARRIED IT OUT
TO THE DUMPSTER,

AND I JUST THREW HIM IN.

ARE YOU GONNA VIOLATE ME?

LET'S GO DOWN TO THE PRECINCT
AND FIGURE IT OUT.

I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT
THEY'D GIVEN YOU R&R

FOR THE REST
OF THE WEEK.

I KNEW I DIDN'T
WANT TO GO HOME,

SO I FIGURED I MIGHT AS WELL
COME BACK HERE.

WELL, YOU'LL BE GLAD TO KNOW,
WE GOT THE GUY.

WHO IS IT?

HE'S A STUDENT
AT THE HIGH SCHOOL.

WHY DID HE DO IT?

HIS BROTHER WAS KILLED
IN KARBALA LAST YEAR.

HE GOT IT IN HIS HEAD
THAT WHATEVER ARMY RECRUITER

GOT SENT TO HIS SCHOOL NEXT
DESERVED TO PAY THE PRICE.

BASICALLY, HE BECAME
AN ENEMY COMBATANT.

HAS HE ADMITTED IT?
NOT YET.

HOW DO YOU KNOW
HE DID IT?

RIGHT NOW,
IT'S MOSTLY CIRCUMSTANTIAL.

HE HAD MADE THREATS
AGAINST RECRUITERS IN THE PAST.

HE HAD ACCESS TO
A HIGH‐POWERED RIFLE,

WHICH WE'RE DOING
BALLISTICS COMPARISONS ON.

HE'D BEEN IN MOROCCO,

AND WE'RE GETTING WEBSITE
TRAFFIC FROM INTERNET RECORDS.

THAT DOESN'T PROVE
HE DID IT, THOUGH.

IT GIVES US ENOUGH FOR THE D.A.
TO GO TO THE GRAND JURY.

WHICH, AT THIS POINT, IS ALL
OUR BOSSES ARE LOOKING FOR.

DOES THAT MEAN HIS NAME
WILL BE IN THE PAPERS?

YEAH. IT'S HIS OLD MAN
I FEEL BAD FOR.

ONE SON'S KILLED,
THE OTHER SON'S A MURDERER.

I DON'T KNOW IF THIS
IS RELEVANT OR NOT, BUT...

YOU HAVE TO KNOW
SOMETHING ABOUT MY HUSBAND.

WHAT'S THAT?

HE'S BEEN HAVING
A TOUGH TIME.

WITH THE DIVORCE?

WITH THE DIVORCE
AND ME SEEING LES.

THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU SAID
THE LAST TIME WE TALKED TO YOU.

I DON'T THINK HE WOULD DO
ANYTHING LIKE THIS.

WHEN YOU SAY "TOUGH TIME,"
WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?

PHONE CALLS IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT,

COMING IN HERE
AND MAKING A SCENE...

DID HE THREATEN YOU
IN ANY WAY?
NO.

DID HE THREATEN
SERGEANT BAKEWELL?

HE MADE IT PRETTY CLEAR

HE DISAPPROVED
OF WHAT WE WERE DOING.

AND I SAID THIS WASN'T
THE PLACE TO DISCUSS THAT.

HE TURNED AND WALKED OUT
LIKE IT WAS DRILL AND CEREMONY.

HIS FACE WAS RED.
HIS EYES WERE STRAIGHT AHEAD.

DOES YOUR HUSBAND
HAVE A GUN?

[ SIGHS ]

HE HAS A RIFLE, SIR.

HEY, WE GOT THE REPORT FAXED
FROM THE M. E.'s OFFICE.

GIUSEPPE DIED
OF A BRAIN ANEURYSM.

WHAT ABOUT THE BRUISES
ON HIS FACE?

LIKELY TO HAVE HAPPENED
WHILE HE WAS IN THE DUMPSTER.

WE SHOULD GET DENISE IN.

THIS WAY.

I JUST HAD A COUPLE MORE THINGS
TO ASK YOU ABOUT.

WHATEVER YOU NEED.

I COULDN'T HELP
BUT NOTICE ‐‐

YOU'RE STILL WEARING
YOUR WEDDING RING.

I'M A CREATURE OF HABIT.
I GOT USED TO WEARING IT.

SOON I'LL GET USED TO
NOTWEARING IT.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN THE OFFICE
WHERE YOUR WIFE WORKS

AND CONFRONTED HER
AND SERGEANT BAKEWELL?

FROM THE WAY
YOU'RE ASKING THE QUESTION,

I HAVE TO ASSUME
YOU KNOW THE ANSWER.

I DID GO THERE.

I HAD A FRANK DISCUSSION
WITH THE BOTH OF THEM

ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE DOING,
AND I LEFT.

YOU'VE ALSO KEPT UP
A STEADY BARRAGE

OF PHONE CALLS AND E‐MAILS
TO YOUR WIFE.

I STILL HAVE FEELINGS
FOR THE WOMAN, DETECTIVE.

WHY WAS THERE A RIFLE IN
THE TRUNK OF YOUR CAR, COLONEL?

YOU WENT IN MY CAR?

WE GOT A SEARCH WARRANT
TO GO IN YOUR CAR.

HOW DID YOU GET
A SEARCH WARRANT?

YOUR WIFE SAID YOU HAD A RIFLE
AND YOU BEHAVED IN A MANNER

THAT ALLOWED US
TO GET ONE.

[ CHUCKLES ]
I GUESS IT'S FAIR TO SAY

THAT LOYALTY'S NOT HER
MOST PROMINENT CHARACTER TRAIT.

MUST HAVE HURT
TO REALIZE THAT.

IT HURT LIKE HELL.

I SUCKED IT UP AND MOVED ON.
NEXT QUESTION.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO
WHEN BALLISTICS COMES BACK

THAT IT WAS YOUR RIFLE USED
TO KILL SERGEANT BAKEWELL?

THEN I WOULD SUGGEST
YOU GET ANOTHER BALLISTICS LAB,

BECAUSE THERE'S NO WAY IN HELL
THAT IT'S TRUE.

I WENT THROUGH
YOUR 201 FILE, COLONEL.

YOU DID THREE TOURS OF DUTY AS
COMMANDER OF A COMBAT ARMS UNIT.

I SPOKE TO SOMEONE
WHO SERVED IN THAT UNIT.

YOU LOOKED OUT FOR YOUR MEN ‐‐
PUT YOURSELF AT RISK.

I DON'T THINK
THE DETECTIVE'S INTERESTED

IN LISTENING TO YOU
BLOW SMOKE UP MY ASS!

WHAT I CAN'T UNDERSTAND IS HOW
YOU CAN TAKE OUT ONE OF OUR OWN.

UNLESS YOU THOUGHT THAT WAS
THE ONLY WAY TO GET HER BACK.

YOU THINK I WANT HER
WHEN SHE'S GRIEVING ANOTHER MAN?

I DO NOT.

IN TIME, SHE'D FORGET HIM.

I'M NOT WAITING MY TURN
FOR SLOPPY SECONDS,

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU
WHEN YOU RETIRED, COLONEL?

HOW DO YOU GO
FROM A BRAVE SOLDIER

TO A SIMPERING COWARD
WHO SHOOTS AN UNARMED SOLDIER

AND THEN LIES ABOUT IT?

I DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER TO YOU,
JUNIOR WARRANT OFFICER NUTTING!

CARL...

I DON'T HAVE
A MILITARY BACKGROUND,

BUT BASED ON WHAT I KNOW
ABOUT YOUR RECORD,

IT SEEMS LIKE
YOUR SENSE OF HONOR

OUGHT TO CAUSE YOU
TO TELL US THE TRUTH ‐‐

NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID,
NO MATTER WHY YOU DID IT.

I THOUGHT WE WERE GONNA BUILD
A WORLD FOR OURSELVES ‐‐

ANGELA AND ME.

I CAME BACK FROM OVERSEAS
TO HAVE A HOUSE AND A YARD,

TO RAISE CHILDREN.

THAT'S WHAT I FOUGHT MY WAY
THROUGH HELL TO GET BACK TO.

THEN I HUNG UP MY UNIFORM

BECAUSE IT WAS TIME
TO MAKE A DECENT LIVING.

TIME TO STAY IN ONE PLACE.
TIME TO ENJOY OUR LIFE TOGETHER.

I EARNED THAT RIGHT.

I PUT IN MY TIME,
AND I EARNED THAT RIGHT.

AND THIS GUY
TOOK IT AWAY FROM YOU?

[ SIGHS ]

I SET UP ON THE LOCATION
WHERE I KNEW HE'D BE.

AS SOON AS I HAD
A CLEAR SHOT,

I TOOK HIM OUT.

WHAT DID HE THINK
WAS GONNA HAPPEN?

BOSS, JUST WANTED
TO LET YOU KNOW

THE PARTNER'S HUSBAND
WENT FOR IT.

WHERE'S NUTTING?

HE'S TELLING
HIS COMMANDING OFFICER.

THAT'S GOOD WORK,
DETECTIVE.

CLEARED THIS ONE
WITHOUT SIPOWICZ.

NOT REALLY.

JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW
SOMEONE ELSE CONFESSED.

YOU CAN TAKE
YOUR SON HOME NOW.

IS THE GUY
FROM THE ARMY STILL HERE?

YEAH.

MY SON WOULD LIKE
TO SAY SOMETHING TO HIM.

HE WAS JUST DOING HIS JOB.

ARE YOU GONNA TALK TO THE FAMILY
OF THE GUY THAT GOT KILLED?

YEAH, I'LL PROBABLY
PUT A CALL IN TO THEM.

WILL YOU TELL THEM FOR ME
THAT I'M SORRY?

ESPECIALLY IF HE HAS
A YOUNGER BROTHER.

YEAH,
I'LL LET THEM KNOW.

[ SNIFFLES ]

I GOT YOUR MESSAGE.
WHAT DID YOU FIND OUT?

COME IN.

YOUR UNCLE DIED
OF A BRAIN ANEURYSM.

WHAT IS THAT?

IT'S WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS
IN ONE OF YOUR ARTERIES.

FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND,
IT'S VERY QUICK.

SO NOBODY KILLED HIM?

NO.

I GUESS THAT'S BETTER,
THEN, RIGHT?

I'D SAY SO.

YOU SHOULD ALSO KNOW
THAT HE MADE A FRIEND

DURING THE LAST MONTH
OR SO OF HIS LIFE.

WHO WAS THAT?

A GUY WHO WORKS
AT A RESTAURANT KITCHEN.

YOUR UNCLE WOULD SWEEP,
AND HE'D GIVE HIM FOOD.

ANOTHER BASQUE.
OH, YEAH?

YEAH. HE EVEN SPOKE
A LITTLE EUSKARA TO HIM.

OH, HE MUST HAVE BEEN
IN HEAVEN.

IT WAS SOMETHING, ANYWAY.

YEAH.

THANK YOU.

SURE.

CALL IT A DAY?

YEAH.

BALDWIN?

YEAH.

I THINK I'M GONNA PUT IN
MY PAPERS.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

I THINK IT'S TIME.

BECAUSE OF BALE?

NO.

THOUGH HE DID
GET ME THINKING.

TRUTH IS, I'VE BEEN UP NIGHTS
OVER THIS.

I DON'T THINK
I'M EVER GONNA LOVE A JOB

AS MUCH
AS BEING A DETECTIVE.

BUT I GOT AN OPPORTUNITY
OPENING UP.

I THINK I COULD HAVE
A LIFE WITH BRIGID.

I THINK SHE WANTS
TO BE WITH ME.

AND I'M NEVER GONNA HAVE
ANOTHER CHANCE LIKE THAT.

GREG, I, UH...

I NEVER HAD A BETTER PARTNER
THAN YOU.

BUT...
YOU GOT TO BE HAPPY.

AND IF YOU GOT A CHANCE TO GO
FOR SOMETHING BETTER, THEN...

I THINK THAT'S GREAT.

[ SIGHS ]

I SHOULD TELL THE BOSS.

YEAH.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

CLARK GONE?

YEAH, HE HAD TO GO OVER
TO CENTRAL BOOKING.

YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED
WITH HIS CASE?

THE HUSBAND OF THE D. O. A.'s
PARTNER WENT FOR IT.

THAT'S THE ONE
JOHN WAS LIKING.

HE'S GOT SOME GOOD INSTINCTS,
THAT BOY.

HOW COME YOU'RE HERE
SO LATE?

WE WERE IN COURT ALL DAY. HAD TO
GET CAUGHT UP ON PAPERWORK.

WE MISS YOU, ANDY.
