GIVE ME A BREAK.
COME ON, GUYS.
THIS IS MY COUSIN.
WE'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
HOW ABOUT LOSING THE CUFFS?
SUMANSKI'S COUSIN WAS HIT
BY A CAR THIS MORNING.
THAT'S HIS OTHER COUSIN,
D. O. A.'S BROTHER, AND A FRIEND.
THEY MIXED IT UP A LITTLE
WITH THE DRIVER AT THE SCENE.
HEY, ANDY.
HEY.
SARGE.
I JUST GOT WORD ‐‐
I'M BACK TO FULL DUTY.
CONGRATS.
YEAH, THANKS AGAIN, ANDY.
THERE'S THE SON OF A BITCH
KILLED TERRY!
HEY! HEY!
Andy: HEY, HEY, STEVE!
STAY OUT OF THIS.
Man: GRAB HIS ARMS.
Man: BRING HIM DOWN.
WHAT THE HELL
IS GOING ON HERE?
THE SON OF A BITCH
KILLED MY BROTHER!
HOW MANY TIMES YOU GOING
TO LET THIS GUY ATTACK ME?
TAKE THIS MESS
UPSTAIRS TO THE SQUAD.
GET HIM
UP TO INTERVIEW THREE
AND TAKE THESE TWO
INTO THE POKEY.
SUMANSKI,
YOU STAY OUT OF THIS.
HE'S MY COUSIN.
WE JUST LOST HIS BROTHER.
YOU STAY OUT OF IT
TILL YOU HEAR FROM ME.
WHAT, I CAN'T
HANDLE MYSELF?
YOU NEED TO KEEP
YOUR HANDS OFF PEOPLE
FOR A WHILE, GOT IT?
OKAY.
I NEVER GOT
INTO A FIGHT
WHERE I DIDN'T
BREAK MY WATCHBAND.
GOT A ROBBERY
AND STABBING
OVER AT THE PAST TIMES
ANTIQUES MARKET.
VICTIM'S
CAPTAIN BASS'S WIFE.
OH, JEEZ.
E.M.S. IS
TAKING HER TO BELLEVUE.
YOU WANT US
TO MEET HER THERE?
YOU AND GREG
CHECK OUT THE CRIME SCENE.
DIANE CAN GO
OVER TO BELLEVUE.
I'M GOING TO CALL THE BUREAU,
SEE IF I CAN FIND CAPTAIN BASS.
SO, WHAT HAPPENED
DOWNSTAIRS?
WE GOT
A VEHICULAR HOMICIDE.
A.I.S. IS THERE NOW,
BUT THE FIRST COP
ON THE SCENE
HAS WITNESSES SAYING
IT WAS ACCIDENTAL.
BUT WHAT HAPPENED
DOWNSTAIRS?
IT WENT DOWN
RIGHT IN FRONT
OF THE D. O. A.'S BROTHER
AND FRIEND.
THEY GO AFTER THE DRIVER,
KNOCK HIM AROUND,
PUT A GARBAGE CAN
THROUGH HIS WINDSHIELD,
THEN THEY CROSS PATHS
AGAIN DOWNSTAIRS ‐‐
ANOTHER DONNYBROOK.
HOW'S SUMANSKI
INVOLVED?
THE D. O. A. AND THE BROTHER
THAT FLIPPED OUT,
THEY'RE
SUMANSKI'S COUSINS.
AND HE'S LOOKING
FOR A LITTLE RHYTHM?
SO, HOW'S THE DRIVER?
WELL, HE'S PISSED
BUT, YOU KNOW, SHOOK UP.
INJURED
IN THE FIGHT?
NOTHING BROKEN.
SEE IF SUMANSKI WILL COVER
ANY DAMAGES TO THE CAR
AND, IF SO,
TRY AND GET THE DRIVER
TO COME OFF THE ASSAULT.
HE SAW HIS BROTHER
DEAD ON THE STREET, OKAY,
SO HE LOST IT
A LITTLE.
WE'RE GOING TO TRY
AND WORK THIS OUT.
IF NOT FOR ME,
THEN FOR MY DAD,
WHO HAD 32 YEARS
ON THE JOB
AND BASICALLY
RAISED TERRY AND STEVE
WHEN THEIR DAD DIED
20 YEARS AGO.
WE'RE DOING THIS
FOR YOU.
NOW, CAN WE
TELL THE DRIVER
THAT YOUR COUSIN
AND HIS BUDDY
ARE GOING TO COVER
THE DAMAGES TO HIS CAR?
HELL, YES.
WHATEVER YOU NEED.
SORRY TO HEAR
ABOUT YOUR COUSIN.
THANKS.
I'LL BE
ON THE AIR, JOHN.
OKAY,
LIEUTENANT.
WHY DON'T YOU WAIT HERE?
WE'LL GO TALK TO THIS GUY.
IS FANCY HIP
TO ALL THIS?
YEAH.
GREAT.
HEY, IT WAS HIS IDEA
YOU COVERING EXPENSES
TO GET THE DRIVER
OFF THE ASSAULT.
DOES HE KNOW
THE DRIVER'S BLACK YET?
WHY DON'T YOU KEEP
YOUR MOUTH SHUT
AND QUIT WHILE YOU'RE
AHEAD, SUMANSKI?
[ DOOR OPENS ]
HOW YOU FEELING?
LIKE I'VE BEEN
BEAT UP TWICE TODAY.
THEY CAN'T DO THAT,
MAN.
THEY WERE OUT OF LINE.
NO ONE'S SAYING THEY WEREN'T.
THIS WAS
AN ACCIDENT.
THAT GUY JUMPS RIGHT OUT
FROM BETWEEN TWO
PARKED CARS,
AND I HAD
NO TIME TO STOP!
YEAH, ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION
IS DOWN THERE RIGHT NOW
GETTING STATEMENTS
FROM WITNESSES.
WELL, I'M TELLING YOU,
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.
MAYBE I CAN
UNDERSTAND THOSE GUYS
GETTING HEATED
ON THE STREET,
BUT THAT NONSENSE
DOWNSTAIRS, MAN ‐‐ NO WAY!
THOSE GUYS
THAT CAME AT YOU,
ONE OF THEM IS THE BROTHER
OF THE GUY WHO DIED.
YEAH. I HEARD.
THEY'VE CALMED DOWN NOW,
AND THEY WANT TO TAKE CARE
OF ANY DAMAGES TO YOUR CAR,
AND IF YOU
NEED TO GET LOOKED AT,
I'M SURE THEY'LL COVER
ANY HOSPITAL COSTS.
THEY'RE JUST SAYING THAT
BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT ME
TO PRESS CHARGES
AGAINST THEM, RIGHT?
RIGHT?
HE FOUND HIS BROTHER
DEAD ON THE STREET.
WHO KNOWS HOW ANY OF US
WOULD REACT TO THAT?
WELL, HOW DO I KNOW
THEY WON'T COME LOOKING
FOR ME LATER?
THEY WON'T.
I'LL MAKE SURE OF IT.
HE JUST
RAN IN FRONT OF ME!
WHAT DO YOU
WANT TO DO, MR. MACKEY?
WHATEVER.
YEAH, UH...
TELL THEM
I'M COOL IF THEY ARE.
THANKS.
MRS. BASS?
I'M DIANE RUSSELL
FROM THE 15th DETECTIVE SQUAD.
MY HUSBAND IS CAPTAIN BASS.
DO YOU WORK FOR HIM?
HE'S
OUR ZONE COMMANDER.
WHERE IS HE?
HAS HE BEEN NOTIFIED?
HE'S ON HIS WAY
WITH MY LIEUTENANT.
DOCTOR SAID IT WAS OKAY
IF I ASKED YOU A FEW QUESTIONS,
IF THAT'S
OKAY WITH YOU.
I'VE ALREADY
TOLD WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE UNIFORMED
OFFICERS.
WELL,
COULD YOU TELL ME?
A BLACK MAN CAME
INTO MY SHOP TO ROB ME,
AND HE STABBED ME
IN THE ARM.
IT WAS ABOUT 9:15.
I CAME IN EARLY
TO DO SOME PAPERWORK.
THIS IS THE PAST TIMES
ANTIQUE MART ON 2nd AVENUE?
NO, I HAVE
MY OWN SHOP.
THEY GIVE US ALL KEYS
TO THE FRONT DOOR
SO WE CAN COME AND GO
ON OUR OWN TIME.
DID YOU SEE ANYONE ELSE
IN THE BUILDING
YOU DIDN'T RECOGNIZE?
NO. I DID SEE JOSIE.
SHE SELLS AUTOGRAPHS
ON THE GROUND FLOOR.
WAS THE MAN WAITING THERE
WHEN YOU GOT TO YOUR SHOP?
NO. I WAS WORKING
IN THE BACK,
AND WHEN I CAME OUT
TO USE THE RESTROOM,
HE WAS
GOING THROUGH MY BAG.
NEXT THING I KNEW,
HE PULLED OUT A KNIFE
FROM HIS RIGHT POCKET,
AND HE CUT ME,
AND I FELL DOWN.
THEN HE TOOK
SOME SILVER GOBLETS
AND STUCK THEM
IN HIS COAT
AND RAN AWAY.
CAN YOU
DESCRIBE THIS GUY?
LIKE I SAID, HE WAS BLACK,
AND I THINK HE WAS BIG,
BUT I WAS TRYING
TO LOOK AWAY
SO HE WOULDN'T KILL ME.
CLIFFORD,
IT WAS A NIGHTMARE.
I THOUGHT I WAS DEAD.
IT'S OKAY, NIKKI.
NOW, CALM DOWN.
IT'S ALL OVER.
I LOST BLOOD!
HOW CAN I
EVER GO BACK THERE?
NOT ENOUGH
HE ROBS HER.
HE'S GOT TO CUT
A HELPLESS WOMAN.
THE STITCHES HURT,
AND I THINK MY MEDICATION
IS WEARING OFF.
COULD YOU
FIND A DOCTOR?
SURE.
I WANT A FULL‐COURT PRESS
ON THIS, ARTHUR.
WHOEVER DID THIS,
I WANT THE GUY.
YEAH.
COUNSELOR.
AM I
IN THE WAY?
YEAH, BUT WE'LL LET IT
SLIDE THIS TIME.
THANKS.
YOU NEED US?
NO. I JUST CAME BY
ON THAT PEDESTRIAN STRUCK,
BUT SORENSON AND SIPOWICZ
APPARENTLY HAVE IT
ALL WORKED OUT.
MUST BE BREAKING
YOUR HEART,
NOT HAVING TO DO
SIX HOURS OF PAPERWORK.
YEAH, I'LL TRY
AND GET OVER IT.
I'VE GOT TO GO
TAKE A STATEMENT.
UH, SAY, D.,
I'VE GOT THESE TWO TICKETS
FOR TOMORROW,
FOR THIS DOO‐WOP NIGHT
THEY'RE HAVING
AT THE CHANTICLEER,
BUT KATIE'S DOING
A PLAY AT SCHOOL.
I‐I NOTICED YOU GOT
SOME DOO‐WOP CDs
IN YOUR TRUCK.
YOU DID, HUH?
GO AHEAD, TAKE 'EM.
WELL, BACK TO WORK.
SO, UH, AHEM ‐‐
SO, YOU LIKE DOO‐WOP?
IF YOU'RE ASKING ME OUT,
I DON'T THINK SO.
OH, I'M NOT
ASKING YOU OUT.
I'D JUST HATE TO SEE
THESE TICKETS GO TO WASTE.
I DON'T THINK SO.
WHY NOT?
I MEAN, FOLKS
IN HIGH‐STRESS JOBS LIKE OURS
GOT TO RELAX SOMETIMES,
AND I DON'T SEE
WHAT YOU'D HAVE AGAINST ME
AND YOU KICKING BACK.
WELL, PROBABLY NOTHING,
EXCEPT US INTERACTING
SO CLOSE IN OUR JOBS,
THE CHANCES OF SOMETHING
AWKWARD HAPPENING
IS GOOD REASON
FOR US NOT KICKING BACK.
SO, WHAT TIME
SHOULD I PICK YOU UP?
DIDN'T YOU HEAR
WHAT I SAID?
WELL, YOU SAID YOU'VE GOT
NOTHING AGAINST GOING OUT.
THERE'S JUST AS MUCH CHANCE
WE'D HAVE A GOOD TIME.
8:00.
WEAR SOMETHING NICE.
DON'T WORRY
ABOUT ME.
YOU GOT A MINUTE?
SURE, PARTNER.
HOW LONG YOU BEEN
WORKING THAT ONE UP?
WORKING WHAT UP?
I HAD A COUPLE OF TICKETS
I COULDN'T USE...
GREG.
I FIGURED YOU TWO
COULD USE A LITTLE NUDGE.
MM‐HMM.
DID YOU ASK HER?
THAT'S
NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.
CRIME SCENE
DUSTED FOR PRINTS?
YEAH. NO PRINTS
ON THE KNIFE.
THE BUILDING HAS SECURITY
CAMERAS AT THE ENTRANCES.
WE GOT THE MANAGER
ON HIS WAY IN NOW
WITH VIDEOS.
WE'LL ALSO CHECK THE 61s
FOR ANY SIMILAR PATTERNS
IN THE AREA.
CAPTAIN BASS WANTS US
TO KEEP HIM POSTED.
BOSS,
LET ME RUN SOMETHING
PAST YOU.
ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO,
MRS. BASS WAS CAUGHT
IN A FIRE
WHERE SHE WAS WORKING.
YEAH. I REMEMBER.
I WAS IN UNIFORM.
DEPARTMENT ASSIGNED ME
TO NURSEMAID MRS. BASS.
THERE WAS NEVER ANY EVIDENCE
TO SUBSTANTIATE THIS,
BUT ONE OF THE DETECTIVES
ON THE CASE
SAID THEY ALWAYS FELT
SHE MIGHT HAVE
SET THAT FIRE HERSELF.
DIANE, YOU GOING WHERE
I THINK YOU ARE WITH THIS?
LET'S JUST WORK THE CASE,
END OF STORY.
RIGHT.
THIS IS MY DAD BILL.
BILL.
RETIRED
FROM THE JOB.
DID ALL MY TIME
IN BROOKLYN.
GOOD TO MEET YOU.
EXCUSE ME.
SORRY TO HEAR
ABOUT YOUR NEPHEW.
HE WAS
LIKE MY SON.
UH, STEVE'S GIRLFRIEND
MISTY.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
HI.
SO, WHAT'S GOING ON?
WE SMOOTHED IT OUT
WITH THE DRIVER.
HE WON'T BE
PRESSING CHARGES.
SO STEVE AND TEDDY
CAN GO?
YEAH.
THANK YOU.
Misty: YOU OKAY?
YEAH.
YOU'RE GOING HOME,
GUYS.
Andy: NOW,
THIS WAS AN ACCIDENT.
TERRY RAN RIGHT OUT
IN FRONT OF THAT CAR.
E.M.S., THEY SAID THEY
SMELLED ALCOHOL ON TERRY.
HAD YOU GUYS
BEEN DRINKING?
A LITTLE, YEAH.
WELL, WE STRUCK THE SET
OF THE SHOW
WE WERE WORKING ON.
WE WORKED ALL NIGHT.
WE CELEBRATED A LITTLE.
WAS TERRY DRUNK?
I GUESS MAYBE HE WAS.
EITHER WAY, THIS IS
OVER WITH, RIGHT?
THIS DRIVER, HE STEPPED UP
IN A BIG WAY
BY NOT BRINGING CHARGES.
WOULD HE BE AMENABLE
TO AN APOLOGY?
YOU HEARD ME.
I'LL GO SEE.
IF EITHER OF YOU TWO
SEE HIM ON THE STREET
AND EVEN LOOK FUNNY
AT HIM,
WE'RE LOCKING YOU UP.
I GOT IT.
I LOST MY BROTHER,
AND I LOST MY HEAD,
AND I'M SORRY.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT...
OKAY.
AND I'M SORRY
YOU LOST YOUR BROTHER.
Andy: ALL RIGHT.
COME ON.
I'LL GET YOU HOME.
THANKS.
SURE.
AND, UH,
TELL LIEUTENANT FANCY THANKS.
[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]
CAPTAIN.
HOW'S YOUR WIFE DOING?
SHE'S IN A PANIC.
SHE CAN'T SLEEP.
THEY HAD TO KNOCK HER OUT
WITH DRUGS.
SHE SAYS SHE'S NEVER
GOING BACK TO WORK
AS LONG AS THAT MANIAC'S
OUT THERE.
SO SHE'S
STILL IN THE HOSPITAL?
YEAH, THEY'RE KEEPING HER
OVERNIGHT.
WHERE ARE WE
WITH THIS CASE?
MEDAVOY AND JONES
ARE WAITING
FOR THE MANAGER
OF THE ANTIQUE MART
TO LOOK THROUGH
SECURITY TAPES.
LET THEM WORK
THROUGH THE NIGHT.
I'M AUTHORIZING
ANY OVERTIME.
YOU NEED ANY HELP
FROM OTHER UNITS,
I'LL TALK TO THE CHIEF
OF DETECTIVES MYSELF.
I THINK
WE CAN HANDLE IT.
NO, I'M NOT SAYING
ANY DIFFERENT.
I'M JUST SAYING,
DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO.
YEAH. I UNDERSTAND.
GOOD.
ANY DEVELOPMENTS,
I WANT TO BE KEPT UP TO SPEED.
ABSOLUTELY.
JOHN BIZETTI.
I RUN THE PAST TIMES
ANTIQUE MART.
MR. BIZETTI,
HAVEN'T I SEEN YOU
ON "THE ANTIQUE TREASURE HUNT"
APPRAISING OLD TOYS?
8:00 P. M. SUNDAYS.
I NEVER MISS IT.
I'VE GOT SOME PIECES
I WOULD LOVE
TO HAVE SOMEONE TAKE
A LOOK AT SOMETIME.
NOT THIS HIPPO?
NO, I'VE GOT
SOME LEAD SOLDIERS
AND ONE OF THOSE OLD
TEDDY BEARS STUFFED WITH STRAW.
HERE'S MY CARD.
CALL ME.
I'M HERE TO SEE
DETECTIVE JONES.
UH, DETECTIVE JONES.
JOHN BIZETTI
FROM THE ANTIQUE MART.
THESE ARE FOR YOU.
OKAY.
MY PARTNER
DETECTIVE MEDAVOY.
HOW ABOUT
WE GO IN HERE?
HOW'S SHE DOING ‐‐
MRS. BASS?
SHE'S, UH,
STABLE FOR THE MOMENT.
I DID CONSIDER SHUTTING DOWN
FOR THE REST OF THE DAY,
BUT THERE'S A FLOCK
OF BUYERS IN TOWN
FOR THE AMERICAN FURNITURE
SHOW AT THE ARMORY.
WELL, WERE YOU
AROUND THIS MORNING
WHEN MRS. BASS
GOT ATTACKED?
NO. LAST NIGHT
I STAYED OVER
VISITING MY SISTER
IN ASTORIA.
BESIDES SECURITY
AND THE JANITORS,
WHO ELSE YOU GOT
WORKING IN THE BUILDING?
WE HAVE OUR OWN MEN
HANDLING STOCK AND DELIVERIES.
I BROUGHT A LIST
OF NAMES AND ADDRESSES.
SELLING CUPS AND PLATES,
YOU WOULDN'T THINK
MRS. BASS WOULD BE
A PRIME TARGET
FOR THIEVES.
MRS. BASS DEALS
IN 19th CENTURY
BLACK LABEL BELLEEK CHINA
FROM NORTHERN IRELAND.
YOUR AVERAGE THIEF
MIGHT NOT KNOW
THERE ISN'T MUCH DEMAND.
I JUST MEANT IT WASN'T
SOMETHING YOU COULD PAWN EASY,
LIKE JEWELRY.
THIS IS THE FILE
WE KEEP ON SHOPLIFTERS,
THOSE WHO AREN'T
OTHER ANTIQUE DEALERS.
I TAKE A PHOTO,
GET WHATEVER
PERSONAL INFORMATION I CAN.
I THEN HAVE THEM SIGN
A FORM SAYING
IF THEY'RE FOUND
ON THE PREMISES AGAIN,
THEY WILL BE CHARGED
WITH CRIMINAL TRESPASS.
THAT'S VERY ORGANIZED.
THANK YOU.
IN THE YELLOW BAG
YOU'LL FIND
TAPES FROM
OUR SECURITY CAMERAS
COVERING
THE PAST THREE WEEKS,
DATED AND COLOR‐CODED
BY FRONT OR REAR ENTRANCE.
IF YOU CAN HELP US
WITH THAT COLOR CODING,
WE SHOULD START
WITH THE ONES FROM YESTERDAY.
I GOT TO TAKE
THEO TO THE DOCTOR.
NOTHING'S WRONG?
NO. IT'S JUST
HIS CHECKUP,
BUT HE FEELS BETTER
IF I'M THERE WITH HIM.
LOST TIME, JOHN.
SURE. WHAT TIME DO YOU
NEED ME TONIGHT FOR THEO?
UH, LET'S SAY 6:00.
LOOK, JOHN, YOU GOING
TO BABYSIT THEO
ON ANY REGULAR‐TYPE BASIS,
YOU'RE GOING TO GET PAID,
AND I WON'T HEAR
ANOTHER WORD.
SEE YOU AT 6:00.
I WAS WONDERING,
WOULD YOU LIKE TO GRAB
A COCKTAIL LATER?
MAYBE YOU COULD BRING
THAT LEAD SOLDIER.
I'D LOVE TO, BUT I HAVE
ANOTHER ENGAGEMENT.
WELL, IS IT SERIOUS?
NO, I'M JUST BABYSITTING.
HOW AWFULLY DOMESTIC.
YOU'VE GOT MY CARD.
HEY, DIANE,
YOU GOT A MINUTE FOR ME?
SURE.
I'M, UH, I'M GLAD
YOU'RE BACK TO FULL DUTY.
YEAH. THANKS.
YOU KNOW, BEING OFF
AND GETTING BACK ON
HAS GIVEN ME SOME TIME
TO CLEAR MY HEAD.
MAYBE THAT'S
A SILVER LINING.
DIANE, I KNOW I'VE
BEHAVED BAD TOWARD YOU,
AND YOU
DIDN'T DESERVE THAT.
DANNY, NEITHER ONE OF US
BEHAVED ANY WAY TO BE PROUD OF.
I JUST HOPE
WE CAN STILL BE FRIENDS.
I'M NOT GOING TO KEEP ON
MOPING AROUND HERE
LIKE I'M SOME SICK PUPPY.
IF I CAN'T COME THROUGH
WITH MY PART
LIKE I'M
A MATURE ADULT,
AND IT KEEPS ON
MAKING YOU UNCOMFORTABLE
LIKE IT HAS BEEN,
THEN IT'S ON ME
TO BE THE ONE TO LEAVE.
NO ONE WANTS YOU
LEAVING HERE.
I'M NOT SAYING
IT'S WHAT YOU WANT.
I'M SAYING IT'S MY PROBLEM
TO DEAL WITH.
OKAY.
THANKS.
ARE YOU SURE
THIS DOESN'T BOTHER YOU?
NOT AT ALL.
I MADE THAT VASE
A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO.
YEAH?
IT'S NICE. HOBBY?
NO. I TOOK A CLASS.
I, UH, I BEEN THINKING
ABOUT DOING THAT MYSELF,
LEARN ITALIAN
OR SOMETHING.
I'VE BEEN SAYING THAT
FOR A COUPLE
OF DECADES, THOUGH.
I'D BEEN SAYING IT
FOR 16 YEARS.
THAT'S WHEN I MOVED
MY MOTHER IN WITH ME.
SHE WAS SICK.
YEAH. I REMEMBER
EDDIE MENTIONED
SOMETHING ABOUT THAT.
M.S. SHE DIED
TWO YEARS AGO THIS JULY.
THAT'S HARD.
I STRUGGLED
A LITTLE BIT,
WHETHER OR NOT TO PUT HER
IN A HOME.
I DON'T REGRET IT
AT ALL.
SAYS A LOT
ABOUT YOU, CYNTHIA.
THE ONLY THING WAS,
I‐I MISSED OUT
ON OTHER THINGS.
YEAH, SURE.
AND THEN,
WHEN SHE WAS GONE,
I REALIZED THAT
DEFINITELY IT WAS TIME
TO DO THE THINGS
I COULDN'T BEFORE,
LIKE TAKE
A POTTERY CLASS
OR LEARN
HOW TO TANGO.
TANGO, HUH?
HOW'D THAT GO?
UH,
CLUMSILY,
BUT I TRIED IT.
YOU'VE GOT TO WATCH OUT
FOR THEM TANGO INSTRUCTORS.
LOW‐RENT LOTHARIOS,
MOSTLY.
I HAD A CASE ONE TIME,
THIS GUY, UH,
DAVID, HE WAS MILKING
THIS 60‐YEAR‐OLD WIDOW
FOR 30 GRAND.
I USED TO CALL HIM DAVE,
JUST TO PISS HIM OFF.
SO, ANYWAY,
THAT'S MY NEW THING.
I DON'T LOOK BACK
AND THINK ABOUT WHAT
I COULD HAVE DONE,
AND I DON'T PUT IT OFF.
I REALLY
WANT TO LIVE NOW.
SO WHAT'S NEXT
ON YOUR LIST ‐‐
BUNGEE JUMPING?
YOU'RE NEXT
ON MY LIST, ANDY,
BUT I JUST
RAN OUT OF NERVES,
SO, IF YOU WANT THIS,
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO MAKE THE NEXT ‐‐
CALL US OUT AT 7:00
IN THE MORNING
FOR A BAR BRAWL?
BAR BRAWL
FEATURING THE BROTHER
OF THE GUY GOT KILLED
IN THE STRUCK PEDESTRIAN
YOU CAUGHT YESTERDAY.
Danny: THAT'S STEVE RIORDAN,
SUMANSKI'S COUSIN?
NO, THAT'S BILLY SPRAUL,
WHO LOST A FIGHT TO RIORDAN,
ALTHOUGH IT WASN'T
MUCH OF A FIGHT, I GUESS.
I GOT WITNESSES SAYING
IT WAS OVER INSIDE 15 SECONDS.
WHERE'S RIORDAN NOW?
NOT HERE.
GROWING
A MUSTACHE, HUH?
LITTLE BROTHER TELLS ME
IT'S GOING GOOD
WITH YOU AND MY NIECE.
WE'VE HAD
SOME NICE DINNERS.
JUST WANTED TO GET THIS
OUT OF THE WAY UP FRONT.
WHEN YOU TWO
GET HITCHED,
YOU CAN CALL ME
UNCLE EDDIE.
MESSIN' WITH YOU.
HA HA.
SHANE CHAMBERS.
THIS IS HIS JOINT.
YOU KNOW
STEVE RIORDAN?
KIND OF.
HOW ABOUT
THIS BILLY SPRAUL?
YEAH, A LITTLE BIT.
HIM AND RIORDAN
HAVE ANY HISTORY?
MAYBE.
THEY KNEW EACH OTHER.
YOU SEE
HOW THE FIGHT STARTED?
DIDN'T.
YOU GOT ANY IDEA
WHAT THAT WAS ABOUT?
NOPE.
YOU TRY
STOPPING THEM?
THEY TOOK IT
OUTSIDE.
THESE IRISH BARTENDERS,
YOU CAN'T SHUT 'EM UP.
CAN I GO NOW?
NO. GO WAIT INSIDE.
ALL RIGHT,
LOOK FOR RIORDAN,
AND IF HE'S IN THE WIND,
CALL SUMANSKI.
SUMANSKI'S GETTING CALLED
NO MATTER WHAT.
I'LL TRY
TO REACH RIORDAN.
HEY, ANDY,
ALL KIDDING ASIDE,
I HOPE IT WORKS OUT
FOR YOU TWO.
GIBSON, WE JUST
BEEN HAVING DINNERS.
DON'T BE GETTING YOUR
TUX PRESSED OR NOTHING.
ABSOLUTELY,
BUT SO AS YOU KNOW,
CYNTHIA
REALLY LIKES YOU.
YEAH, AND I
LIKE HER, TOO.
SHE'S AT THAT AGE,
RIGHT?
SO IF YOU'RE
JUST LOOKING TO, YOU KNOW,
HAVE A LITTLE
GRAB‐ASS,
MAYBE YOU'LL
SAVE HER SOME TIME,
BUT, HEY, I'M NOT TRYING
TO GET IN YOUR BUSINESS HERE.
GOD BLESS.
HOPE IT WORKS OUT.
I NEED TO TALK
TO YOU GUYS.
YEAH? WE BEEN NEEDING
TO TALK TO YOU, TOO.
MY COUSIN STEVE
GOT IN A FIGHT.
YOU DIDN'T GET NONE
OF THE MESSAGES WE LEFT YOU?
I'VE BEEN UP
SINCE 5:00 A. M.
DEALING WITH STEVE.
WHERE IS HE NOW?
I'VE GOT HIM
AT A HOTEL.
HE'S SCARED
OUT OF HIS WITS
THINKING THE FIGHT HE WAS IN,
THE GUY MIGHT HAVE DIED.
HE DID.
YEAH, I JUST FOUND THAT OUT
WHEN I WALKED IN.
STEVIE ONLY THREW
A COUPLE OF PUNCHES,
TOTAL FREAK ACCIDENT.
IF IT'S AN ACCIDENT,
THEN WHY AIN'T HE HERE?
I'M LETTING HIM SOBER UP
WHILE I FEEL IT OUT
WITH YOU GUYS.
WERE YOU THERE?
NO. I WAS AT THE TOWN LOUNGE
WITH ALL OF THEM,
BUT I BAILED BEFORE THEY
WENT TO O'LEARY'S.
BUT STEVIE'S SAYING ‐‐
WE DON'T WANT TO HEAR
STEVIE'S VERSION FROM YOU.
YOU'VE GOT AN HOUR
TO PRODUCE YOUR COUSIN,
OR YOU'LL BE
OBSTRUCTING AN INVESTIGATION.
DO I NEED TO GET HIM
A LAWYER?
YOU TELL US.
THIS WAS AN ACCIDENT.
THEN GO GET YOUR COUSIN
AND WE'LL WORK IT OUT.
Y'ALL KNOW HOW TO RUIN
A MAN'S MORNING.
DON'T WORRY.
YOU'LL BE GETTING
A FORMAL LETTER OF APOLOGY
IN THE MAIL.
I WAS GOING TO GET ME
SOME BREAKFAST IN BED.
SO, WHERE WERE YOU
YESTERDAY MORNING, JESSE,
SAY, 9:30?
IN BED
WITH MY OTHER
MAIN GIRLFRIEND SHAUNA.
"OTHER MAIN GIRLFRIEND"?
OOH, MY MAN HERE.
SO, UH, SHAUNA'S PREPARED
TO TELL US
THAT YOU WERE
WITH HER?
SURE.
SO, I GUESS
WHERE YOU WEREN'T
WAS THE PAST TIMES
ANTIQUE MART.
ANTIQUES! DO I LOOK
LIKE I'M INTO ANTIQUES
TO YOU?
WELL, WE'VE GOT YOU
ON VIDEOTAPE
GOING INTO THE PLACE
YESTERDAY MORNING AT 9:05.
OH, PAST TIMES.
I JUST KNOW IT
AS PAST TIMES,
THE KNICKKNACK PLACE.
ANTIQUE PART KIND OF ‐‐
KIND OF CONFUSED ME.
YOU ALL RIGHT?
YOU NEED A MINUTE?
YEAH, I WAS THERE
BROWSING.
SO, UH,
WHAT ABOUT THIS, UH,
PIECE OF PAPER
BANNING YOU FROM THE PLACE
THAT YOU SIGNED
THREE WEEKS AGO
WHEN THEY THREW YOU OUT
FOR STEALING WALLETS?
DIDN'T DO MUCH GOOD,
NOW, DID IT?
JESSE, IT'S BETTER YOU TELL US
WHY YOU WERE THERE,
'CAUSE IF YOU DON'T,
WE'VE GOT OUR OWN STORY
EXPLAINING IT.
YEAH, AND WHAT
WOULD THAT BE?
YOU WERE ATTACKING
A LADY IN HER SHOP,
ROBBING HER
AND STABBING HER.
WHEW. ALL RIGHT,
WELL, THEN,
I'LL TELL YOU WHY I
WAS THERE, ALL RIGHT?
THE ANTIQUE MART FOLKS
GET IN THERE EARLY,
TOSS DOWN THEIR PURSES,
GO HIT THE RESTROOMS
THINKING NO ONE'S THERE
BUT THEMSELVES.
SO YOU WERE THERE YESTERDAY
GRABBING UP WALLETS?
ONE WALLET OFF THAT OLD LADY
WITH THE AUTOGRAPH SHOP,
BUT HOLD UP.
WAS THERE REALLY
A LADY STABBED,
OR DID I JUST GET
WORKED INTO ADMITTING
I STOLE A WALLET?
YEAH, SHE GOT STABBED,
AND WHEN SHE COMES IN,
ARE YOU WILLING TO STAND
IN THE LINEUP?
HELL, YEAH.
WHATEVER I CAN DO
TO HELP YOU GUYS LOOK
THE OTHER WAY ON THAT WALLET.
WHERE'S THIS WALLET NOW?
I STUFFED IT
BEHIND
THE THIRD‐FLOOR RADIATOR,
MINUS SOME CASH
AND A CREDIT CARD
THAT MAYBE
GOT USED ONCE.
HAD THESE GUYS
WORK LATE LAST NIGHT.
THEY GOT BACK ON IT
EARLY THIS MORNING.
I APPRECIATE THAT.
WE BROUGHT IN
ONE SUSPECT
OFF THE SECURITY TAPE,
BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK
LIKE HE'S THE GUY.
WE ALSO GOT
AN EX‐EMPLOYEE ON TAPE,
RIGHT TIME FRAME.
GOT FIRED TWO WEEKS AGO
FOR STEALING A JADE STATUE
FROM THE STOCKROOM.
BUILDING MANAGER SAID
HE GOT REAL ANGRY,
MENTIONED SOMETHING
ABOUT PAYBACK BEING A BITCH.
AND THIS GUY
WASN'T HOME LAST NIGHT,
SO WE'RE GOING TO GO
LOOK FOR HIM NOW.
ALL RIGHT.
GO AHEAD AND DO THAT.
YOU'RE DOING
EVERYTHING YOU CAN?
ABSOLUTELY.
'CAUSE I GOT ENOUGH
ON MY MIND ALREADY.
I GOT IT COVERED.
WHY DON'T YOU
GO BE WITH YOUR WIFE?
NO, I JUST ‐‐
I JUST
CAN'T SIT THERE,
NOT WHILE HER ATTACKER'S
STILL OUT RUNNING AROUND.
IT'S GOING
TO BE ALL RIGHT.
YOU CAN TRUST
THESE GUYS.
LET'S GO.
SIT DOWN.
WHAT HAPPENED
AT O'LEARY'S LAST NIGHT?
WELL, BILLY WAS TELLING ME
TO KEEP MY VOICE DOWN.
HERE I AM, MOURNING
MY BROTHER'S DEATH,
SO WE TOOK IT OUTSIDE.
WHY'D YOU RUN?
I WAS LOADED,
AND I DIDN'T KNOW
HE WAS HURT THAT BAD,
OR I WOULD HAVE STAYED.
WHOSE IDEA WAS IT
TO TAKE IT OUTSIDE?
I'M NOT SURE.
ALTHOUGH I'M NOT SAYING
IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN MINE,
IT'S JUST ‐‐ WHAT WITH SEEING MY
BROTHER DEAD
EARLIER ON THE STREET
THAT DAY ‐‐
QUIT BRINGING UP
YOUR DEAD BROTHER
AS AN EXCUSE,
ALL RIGHT?
YOU SPENT THAT
ON ASSAULTING THE DRIVER
OF THE CAR YESTERDAY.
YEAH, I KNOW
I'VE BEEN AN ASSHOLE,
BUT I SWEAR
I'LL QUIT DRINKING.
JUST, PLEASE ‐‐
JUST GIVE ME
A BREAK HERE.
NAPOLEON RAPP?
WHY, WHAT YOU WANT?
YEAH, WE NEED YOU
TO COME DOWN
AND ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS.
NO. NO WAY.
GO GET HIM!
HEY! COME HERE!
YOU ALL RIGHT, GREG?
YEAH, I'M FINE.
WHAT THE HELL ARE
YOU THINKING, ASSHOLE?
YEAH, I HOPE
THAT BIZETTI'S HAPPY NOW.
MAN, HE TOLD ME
I WAS GOING TO JAIL.
I'VE JUST BEEN WAITING
FOR SOMEONE TO COME AND GET ME.
YEAH, WHO ARE WE
TALKING ABOUT, NAPOLEON?
BIZETTI ‐‐ JOHN BIZETTI.
THE GUY WHO RUNS
THE PLACE I WORK,
OR USED TO WORK.
LOOK, MAN,
I'M SORRY ABOUT KNOCKING
YOU DOWN, OKAY?
I MEAN, YOU JUST WAIT
AND WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO COME,
YOU'RE LOOKING
OVER YOUR SHOULDER,
AND WHEN IT FINALLY COMES,
YOU'RE STILL FREAKED OUT.
WELL, HOW COME
YOU GOT FIRED?
I USED TO WORK THEIR SECURITY
FOR TWO YEARS.
SIX MONTHS BACK,
THE PLACE GETS SOLD.
THE NEW OWNERS
GIVE US THIS BIZETTI.
GETS OUT HIS BROOM,
WANTS A BETTER IMAGE,
ONE BY ONE, HE STARTS
MOVING OUT THE OLD CREW
FOR THESE PRETTY BOYS.
BIZETTI TOLD US
YOU STOLE A JADE
INDONESIAN STATUE.
HE KNOWS I DIDN'T
STEAL THAT STATUE.
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO,
THROW AWAY MY JOB
SO I CAN STICK
SOME UGLY‐ASS GREEN ELEPHANT
ON MY TV?
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS
PROBABLY TOOK THAT STATUE.
IT HAPPENED ON MY WATCH.
THAT'S WHY BIZETTI SAYS
I DID IT.
I'M TELLING YOU,
I DIDN'T TAKE IT.
SO IF YOU DON'T
WORK THERE NO MORE,
WHAT WERE YOU DOING
BACK THERE YESTERDAY MORNING?
SURVEILLANCE TAPE SHOWS YOU
COMING IN AT 9:17.
I WENT TO PICK UP
MY SEVERANCE CHECK.
THAT'S IT.
YOU LEFT
A HALF‐HOUR LATER.
TOOK YOU THAT LONG
TO GET YOUR CHECK?
THE WOMAN IN ACCOUNTING
SAID SHE WAS HAVING PROBLEMS
WITH HER PRINTER.
CALL HER UP.
SO WHILE SHE'S FUTZING
WITH THE COMPUTER,
IS THAT WHEN YOU
SLIPPED DOWN TO LEVEL "B"
TO GET A LITTLE SOMETHING
EXTRA FOR YOUR TROUBLE?
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
ONE OF THE MERCHANTS
WAS ROBBED AND STABBED
THE SAME TIME
YOU WERE THERE.
BIZETTI JUST DOESN'T QUIT,
DOES HE?
LOOK, I WAS A SECURITY GUARD
THERE TWO YEARS,
PROTECTING THOSE PEOPLE.
NOW I'M A ROBBING,
STABBING MANIAC.
WE'RE GOING TO CHECK
WITH ACCOUNTING,
MAKE SURE
YOU WERE THERE.
NAPOLEON, IF YOU DIDN'T
DO NOTHING WRONG,
WHY DIDN'T YOU
JUST COME WITH US?
WHY SHOVE A COP?
I TOLD YOU ‐‐
I FREAKED OUT.
NOW I'M GOING
TO WIND UP IN JAIL
FOR SOMETHING
I DIDN'T EVER DO.
MAY I HELP YOU?
I'M HERE TO SPEAK
TO A DETECTIVE.
REGARDING...
WHAT HAPPENED OUTSIDE
O'LEARY'S THIS MORNING.
WHAT ABOUT IT?
RIGHT THIS WAY, MA'AM.
WERE YOU THERE?
EXCUSE ME, OFFICER.
RIGHT THIS WAY,
AND YOU CAN HAVE
A SEAT IN HERE.
DETECTIVES, THERE'S
A WOMAN IN THE COFFEE ROOM
WHO WANTS TO TALK
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED
AT O'LEARY'S
THIS MORNING.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
SIT DOWN.
DID SUMANSKI HEAR
WHAT SHE CAME IN FOR?
I'M DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ.
THIS IS DETECTIVE SORENSON.
I'M TRACY THOMAS.
HAVE A SEAT.
BILLY SPRAUL DIED OUTSIDE
O'LEARY'S THIS MORNING?
THAT'S RIGHT.
AND A GUY
NAMED STEVE RIORDAN
WHO HIT HIM
KILLED HIM?
THAT'S RIGHT.
DO YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENED
BETWEEN THOSE TWO
AT THE TOWN LOUNGE,
THE BAR THEY WERE AT
BEFORE O'LEARY'S?
WHY DON'T YOU
JUST TELL US?
I WAS AT THE TOWN LOUNGE
WITH MY HUSBAND,
AND THIS STEVE,
WHO I DON'T KNOW,
HE'S AT THE BAR
WITH FRIENDS,
AND HE'S GETTING LOUD,
AND ONE OF THE THINGS
HE WAS GETTING LOUD ABOUT
IS THE NIGGER
WHO KILLED HIS BROTHER
THAT MORNING,
AND MY HUSBAND ‐‐
WE WERE THE ONLY
BLACK PEOPLE IN THIS PLACE,
SO I CALMED HIM DOWN,
AND I ASKED FOR THE CHECK,
BUT BILLY,
WHO I DO KIND OF KNOW,
HE GOES OVER TO STEVE,
AND HE ASKS HIM
TO SHOW A LITTLE RESPECT
FOR THE PEOPLE
AT THE BAR,
MEANING US.
STEVE GOES OFF ON BILLY.
DID THEY FIGHT?
NO.
BILLY LEAVES,
AND STEVE, I MEAN ‐‐
HIS FACE WAS RED,
HE WAS SO ANGRY,
AND HE SAID HE WAS
GOING TO KILL BILLY
IF HE EVER
SAW HIM AGAIN.
I HEARD IT,
AND SO DID MY HUSBAND,
BUT HE DOESN'T WANT
TO GET INVOLVED.
HE DOESN'T
EVEN KNOW I'M HERE.
STEVE USED THOSE WORDS
SPECIFICALLY?
"IF I EVER SEE
THAT ASSHOLE AGAIN,
I'LL KILL HIM."
WHAT'S WITH
THE GRIM LOOKS HERE?
YOU NEED TO GET
YOUR COUSIN A LAWYER.
I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE
GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.
THAT'S BEFORE WE GOT
THE REAL STORY.
AND WHAT STORY'S THAT?
GET A LAWYER.
WE'LL HOLD HIM ‐‐
I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT'S BEEN SAID.
OR ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE ME
HEAR IT FROM SOMEBODY ELSE?
APPARENTLY, YOUR COUSIN SAID
HE WAS GOING TO KILL BILLY
AT THE TOWN LOUNGE.
ACCORDING TO WHO ‐‐
THAT BLACK CHICK YOU GOT
STASHED IN THE COFFEE ROOM?
CAREFUL, SUMANSKI.
NOW YOU BETTER START
BEING CAREFUL.
WELL, THIS IS CRAZY.
TELL ME I GOT
TO GET HIM A LAWYER NOW,
AFTER YOU'VE ALREADY
TAKEN HIS STATEMENT?
YOU'RE SELLING ME ICE
IN THE WINTER HERE, GUYS.
WHERE'S THE HELP?
THE HELP WAS GETTING HIM
KICKED FOR YOU YESTERDAY,
WHEN THIS HOTHEAD SHOULD HAVE
BEEN COOLING OFF IN A CELL,
AND THE HELP WAS
WHAT WE WERE TRYING TO DO
BEFORE WE FOUND OUT HE SAID
HE WAS GOING TO KILL BILLY
IF HE SAW HIM AGAIN.
FIRST WE LOSE HIS BROTHER,
NOW THIS.
GET THAT LAWYER.
LISTEN, UH, BOSS,
I DON'T WANT YOU
TO TAKE THIS THE WRONG WAY,
BUT SOMETHING KEEPS
BOTHERING ME ABOUT THAT KNIFE.
DIANE ‐‐
IT'S NOT
A BUSHWHACKER'S KNIFE.
IT'S A FILLET KNIFE.
IT SO HAPPENS
THERE'S A FANCY KITCHEN STORE
A BLOCK
FROM THE ANTIQUE MART.
I WENT DOWN THERE,
AND TWO DAYS AGO,
THEY SOLD ONE
EXACTLY LIKE IT TO MRS. BASS.
SHE CHARGED IT.
YOU'RE IMPLYING
SHE CUT HERSELF?
GREG AND BALDWIN ‐‐
ARE THEY GETTING ANYWHERE
WITH SUSPECTS
FROM THE SECURITY TAPES?
I'M NOT GOING TO APPROACH
CAPTAIN BASS ON THIS
BASED JUST OFF
WHAT YOU'RE GIVING ME.
THEN LET ME
GO TALK TO HER.
ARE YOU SURE
YOU WANT TO DO THIS?
IT COULD KICK OFF
A DUST STORM,
MIGHT NOT BE GOOD
FOR ANYONE.
BOSS, IF THIS WASN'T
A CAPTAIN'S WIFE,
WOULD WE EVEN BE HAVING
THIS CONVERSATION?
WOULD YOU BE TELLING ME
NOT TO GO
REINTERVIEW THE VICTIM?
OKAY. GO TALK TO HER.
MRS. BASS, UH...
YOU DON'T REMEMBER ME,
DO YOU?
YOU'RE THE DETECTIVE
WHO CAME YESTERDAY
TO ASK ME QUESTIONS.
I MEAN,
WE'VE MET BEFORE THAT.
10 YEARS AGO, WHEN YOU WERE
INJURED IN THE FIRE,
I WAS ONE
OF THE POLICEWOMEN
ASSIGNED TO YOU
AT THE HOSPITAL.
OH.
I WAS HOPING WE COULD TALK
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY.
I'VE ALREADY
TOLD YOU EVERYTHING.
YOU SAID WHEN YOU CAME IN
ON THE MAN
WHO WAS ROBBING YOUR STORE,
THAT HE PULLED OUT
A KNIFE.
YES, THE ONE HE USED
TO STAB ME IN THE ARM.
DO YOU OWN A KNIFE
LIKE THAT AT HOME ‐‐
A 6‐INCH FILLETING KNIFE
WITH A MOTHER‐OF‐PEARL HANDLE?
NO, MY KNIVES
HAVE BLACK HANDLES.
THAT'S A RECEIPT
FROM THE DeVILLE‐WINN STORE
FOR A KNIFE YOU BOUGHT THE DAY
BEFORE YOU WERE ATTACKED.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
MRS. BASS,
THIS KNIFE IS IDENTICAL
TO THE ONE YOU WERE STABBED
IN THE LEFT ARM WITH.
YOU'RE RIGHT‐HANDED,
AREN'T YOU?
DOES MY HUSBAND
KNOW YOU'RE DOWN HERE
ASKING ME
THESE KINDS OF QUESTIONS?
YOUR STORY DOESN'T
ADD UP, MRS. BASS.
WE'VE CHECKED OUT EVERYONE
WHO ENTERED AND EXITED
THAT BUILDING YESTERDAY
THAT FITS THE DESCRIPTION
YOU GAVE US.
NONE OF THEM ROBBED
AND ATTACKED YOU.
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?
BECAUSE YOUR HUSBAND'S
GOT DETECTIVES WORKING
AROUND THE CLOCK TRYING
TO FIND WHO DID,
AND HE'S GOING TO HAVE THEM
KEEP ON WORKING
AND TAKING IN INNOCENT PEOPLE
FOR QUESTIONING,
BUT THEY'RE NOT GOING
TO FIND ANYONE, ARE THEY?
NO, I SUPPOSE THEY'RE NOT.
WHY DID YOU DO IT?
I JUST ‐‐ I JUST ‐‐
WANTED HIM TO SEE ME,
TO PAY ATTENTION TO ME.
[ SOBBING ]
SHE WENT FOR IT, BOSS.
ALL OF IT?
THIS AND THE OTHER THING.
HOW DO YOU WANT
TO HANDLE IT?
PUT DOWN ON YOUR PAPERWORK
"ALL LEADS EXHAUSTED."
GREG, BALDWIN.
YOU CAN CUT LOOSE
THAT EX‐EMPLOYEE.
HOW COME?
DIANE'S CLOSING OUT
THE CASE.
ALL LEADS EXHAUSTED.
BOSS, WE HAVEN'T GONE THROUGH
ALL THE VIDEOS YET.
GREG ‐‐
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SEE
ANYTHING ON THAT VIDEO.
BOSS, THAT EX‐EMPLOYEE
NAPOLEON,
WHEN WE PICKED HIM UP,
HE RESISTED.
PUT THAT BRUISE THERE
ON GREG.
YOU WANT TO COLLAR HIM
ON THAT?
NAH, WE CAN
CUT HIM LOOSE.
HERE COMES CAPTAIN BASS.
WHERE ARE WE
WITH THE CASE?
SIT DOWN FOR A MINUTE,
CAPTAIN.
I WANT YOU TO KNOW
ANYTHING I'M SAYING
STAYS IN THIS ROOM.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
DETECTIVE RUSSELL SPOKE
WITH YOUR WIFE AT THE HOSPITAL.
WHY AREN'T YOU
INFORMING ME?
THE KNIFE YOUR WIFE SAID
WAS USED TO STAB HER ‐‐
SHE BOUGHT THAT
HERSELF.
WHAT?
SHE TOLD DETECTIVE RUSSELL
SHE STABBED HERSELF
AND SHE MADE UP THE STORY
ABOUT BEING ROBBED.
SHE ALSO ADMITTED
TO STARTING THAT FIRE.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING,
ARTHUR?
CAPTAIN, NO ONE
IS LOOKING TO HURT YOU.
THIS IS ABOUT HELPING
YOUR WIFE.
YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN HER
WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG.
SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL,
SOPHISTICATED,
AND SHE WAS IN LOVE
WITH ME ‐‐ A COP.
SHE ALWAYS SAID
I MADE HER FEEL SAFE.
NOW...
SHE NEEDS YOUR HELP.
THAT'S WHAT SHE'S
LOOKING FOR.
YEAH.
I GOT MY 20 YEARS.
MAYBE I SHOULD
PUT IN MY PAPERS.
JUST GO BE
WITH YOUR WIFE NOW.
DON'T WORRY
ABOUT ALL THE REST OF IT.
I OWE YOU.
NO. NO, YOU DON'T.
PEOPLE ALWAYS SAID
YOU WERE A NATURAL LEADER
AND THAT YOU ALWAYS
PUT YOUR PEOPLE
AHEAD OF YOURSELF.
NOW I KNOW
HOW THEY FEEL.
[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]
[ RING ]
HELLO?
HEY, HOW'S IT GOING?
I WAS GOING TO CALL,
BUT THE DAY JUST SLIPPED
AWAY FROM ME.
NO, NOT AT ALL.
NO, I'M SORRY
IT CAME ACROSS LIKE THAT.
HEY, I RAN
INTO YOUR UNCLE TODAY.
DID HE TELL YOU?
NO, JUST ‐‐
JUST GENERAL CHITCHAT.
NO, NO,
NOTHING ABOUT THAT.
YEAH, I DID, TOO.
NO, YOU WEREN'T.
YOU KNOW, I'VE BEEN WANTING
THAT TO HAPPEN MYSELF,
SO, NO, YOU DIDN'T
JUMP THE GUN OR NOTHING.
CAN WE READ, DADDY?
UM, JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE,
THEO, ALL RIGHT?
I'LL BE RIGHT IN.
WHO'S THAT?
I SHOULD REALLY
GET GOING, OKAY?
WELL, LET ME SEE
HOW THE WEEK SHAPES UP.
YEAH.
YOU, TOO. BYE.
OKAY, BUDDY, COME ON.
LET'S GO READ.
WHO WAS THAT?
THAT WAS A FRIEND
OF DADDY'S. COME ON.
WHAT FRIEND?
UH, A FRIEND FROM WORK.
JOHN?
NO, NO, IT WAS, UH,
ANOTHER FRIEND.
DADDY'S GOT A COUPLE
OF FRIENDS, JUST LIKE YOU.
IS IT THE FRIEND YOU GO
HAVE DINNER WITH ALL THE TIME?
NOT ALL THE TIME,
BUT YEAH.
COME ON.
YOU WANT TO GO READ?
WHY CAN'T THEY
HAVE DINNER HERE?
BECAUSE WHEN GROWN‐UPS
GET TOGETHER,
THEY TALK
ABOUT GROWN‐UP STUFF,
BUT WE CAN DO THAT ‐‐
HAVE DINNER.
CAN AUNT KATIE
COME TOO?
UH...
LET'S YOU AND ME
GO READ, OKAY?
WE'LL DEAL WITH ALL THAT
LATER.

ANYTHING?
PURSE SNATCHED.
GIVE ME A BREAK.
COME ON, GUYS.
THIS IS MY COUSIN.
WE'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
HOW ABOUT LOSING THE CUFFS?
SUMANSKI'S COUSIN WAS HIT
BY A CAR THIS MORNING.
THAT'S HIS OTHER COUSIN,
D. O. A.'S BROTHER, AND A FRIEND.
THEY MIXED IT UP A LITTLE
WITH THE DRIVER AT THE SCENE.
HEY, ANDY.
HEY.
SARGE.
I JUST GOT WORD ‐‐
I'M BACK TO FULL DUTY.
CONGRATS.
YEAH, THANKS AGAIN, ANDY.
THERE'S THE SON OF A BITCH
KILLED TERRY!
HEY! HEY!
Andy: HEY, HEY, STEVE!
STAY OUT OF THIS.
Man: GRAB HIS ARMS.
Man: BRING HIM DOWN.
WHAT THE HELL
IS GOING ON HERE?
THE SON OF A BITCH
KILLED MY BROTHER!
HOW MANY TIMES YOU GOING
TO LET THIS GUY ATTACK ME?
TAKE THIS MESS
UPSTAIRS TO THE SQUAD.
GET HIM
UP TO INTERVIEW THREE
AND TAKE THESE TWO
INTO THE POKEY.
SUMANSKI,
YOU STAY OUT OF THIS.
HE'S MY COUSIN.
WE JUST LOST HIS BROTHER.
YOU STAY OUT OF IT
TILL YOU HEAR FROM ME.
WHAT, I CAN'T
HANDLE MYSELF?
YOU NEED TO KEEP
YOUR HANDS OFF PEOPLE
FOR A WHILE, GOT IT?
OKAY.
I NEVER GOT
INTO A FIGHT
WHERE I DIDN'T
BREAK MY WATCHBAND.
GOT A ROBBERY
AND STABBING
OVER AT THE PAST TIMES
ANTIQUES MARKET.
VICTIM'S
CAPTAIN BASS'S WIFE.
OH, JEEZ.
E.M.S. IS
TAKING HER TO BELLEVUE.
YOU WANT US
TO MEET HER THERE?
YOU AND GREG
CHECK OUT THE CRIME SCENE.
DIANE CAN GO
OVER TO BELLEVUE.
I'M GOING TO CALL THE BUREAU,
SEE IF I CAN FIND CAPTAIN BASS.
SO, WHAT HAPPENED
DOWNSTAIRS?
WE GOT
A VEHICULAR HOMICIDE.
A.I.S. IS THERE NOW,
BUT THE FIRST COP
ON THE SCENE
HAS WITNESSES SAYING
IT WAS ACCIDENTAL.
BUT WHAT HAPPENED
DOWNSTAIRS?
IT WENT DOWN
RIGHT IN FRONT
OF THE D. O. A.'S BROTHER
AND FRIEND.
THEY GO AFTER THE DRIVER,
KNOCK HIM AROUND,
PUT A GARBAGE CAN
THROUGH HIS WINDSHIELD,
THEN THEY CROSS PATHS
AGAIN DOWNSTAIRS ‐‐
ANOTHER DONNYBROOK.
HOW'S SUMANSKI
INVOLVED?
THE D. O. A. AND THE BROTHER
THAT FLIPPED OUT,
THEY'RE
SUMANSKI'S COUSINS.
AND HE'S LOOKING
FOR A LITTLE RHYTHM?
SO, HOW'S THE DRIVER?
WELL, HE'S PISSED
BUT, YOU KNOW, SHOOK UP.
INJURED
IN THE FIGHT?
NOTHING BROKEN.
SEE IF SUMANSKI WILL COVER
ANY DAMAGES TO THE CAR
AND, IF SO,
TRY AND GET THE DRIVER
TO COME OFF THE ASSAULT.
HE SAW HIS BROTHER
DEAD ON THE STREET, OKAY,
SO HE LOST IT
A LITTLE.
WE'RE GOING TO TRY
AND WORK THIS OUT.
IF NOT FOR ME,
THEN FOR MY DAD,
WHO HAD 32 YEARS
ON THE JOB
AND BASICALLY
RAISED TERRY AND STEVE
WHEN THEIR DAD DIED
20 YEARS AGO.
WE'RE DOING THIS
FOR YOU.
NOW, CAN WE
TELL THE DRIVER
THAT YOUR COUSIN
AND HIS BUDDY
ARE GOING TO COVER
THE DAMAGES TO HIS CAR?
HELL, YES.
WHATEVER YOU NEED.
SORRY TO HEAR
ABOUT YOUR COUSIN.
THANKS.
I'LL BE
ON THE AIR, JOHN.
OKAY,
LIEUTENANT.
WHY DON'T YOU WAIT HERE?
WE'LL GO TALK TO THIS GUY.
IS FANCY HIP
TO ALL THIS?
YEAH.
GREAT.
HEY, IT WAS HIS IDEA
YOU COVERING EXPENSES
TO GET THE DRIVER
OFF THE ASSAULT.
DOES HE KNOW
THE DRIVER'S BLACK YET?
WHY DON'T YOU KEEP
YOUR MOUTH SHUT
AND QUIT WHILE YOU'RE
AHEAD, SUMANSKI?
[ DOOR OPENS ]
HOW YOU FEELING?
LIKE I'VE BEEN
BEAT UP TWICE TODAY.
THEY CAN'T DO THAT,
MAN.
THEY WERE OUT OF LINE.
NO ONE'S SAYING THEY WEREN'T.
THIS WAS
AN ACCIDENT.
THAT GUY JUMPS RIGHT OUT
FROM BETWEEN TWO
PARKED CARS,
AND I HAD
NO TIME TO STOP!
YEAH, ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION
IS DOWN THERE RIGHT NOW
GETTING STATEMENTS
FROM WITNESSES.
WELL, I'M TELLING YOU,
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.
MAYBE I CAN
UNDERSTAND THOSE GUYS
GETTING HEATED
ON THE STREET,
BUT THAT NONSENSE
DOWNSTAIRS, MAN ‐‐ NO WAY!
THOSE GUYS
THAT CAME AT YOU,
ONE OF THEM IS THE BROTHER
OF THE GUY WHO DIED.
YEAH. I HEARD.
THEY'VE CALMED DOWN NOW,
AND THEY WANT TO TAKE CARE
OF ANY DAMAGES TO YOUR CAR,
AND IF YOU
NEED TO GET LOOKED AT,
I'M SURE THEY'LL COVER
ANY HOSPITAL COSTS.
THEY'RE JUST SAYING THAT
BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT ME
TO PRESS CHARGES
AGAINST THEM, RIGHT?
RIGHT?
HE FOUND HIS BROTHER
DEAD ON THE STREET.
WHO KNOWS HOW ANY OF US
WOULD REACT TO THAT?
WELL, HOW DO I KNOW
THEY WON'T COME LOOKING
FOR ME LATER?
THEY WON'T.
I'LL MAKE SURE OF IT.
HE JUST
RAN IN FRONT OF ME!
WHAT DO YOU
WANT TO DO, MR. MACKEY?
WHATEVER.
YEAH, UH...
TELL THEM
I'M COOL IF THEY ARE.
THANKS.
MRS. BASS?
I'M DIANE RUSSELL
FROM THE 15th DETECTIVE SQUAD.
MY HUSBAND IS CAPTAIN BASS.
DO YOU WORK FOR HIM?
HE'S
OUR ZONE COMMANDER.
WHERE IS HE?
HAS HE BEEN NOTIFIED?
HE'S ON HIS WAY
WITH MY LIEUTENANT.
DOCTOR SAID IT WAS OKAY
IF I ASKED YOU A FEW QUESTIONS,
IF THAT'S
OKAY WITH YOU.
I'VE ALREADY
TOLD WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE UNIFORMED
OFFICERS.
WELL,
COULD YOU TELL ME?
A BLACK MAN CAME
INTO MY SHOP TO ROB ME,
AND HE STABBED ME
IN THE ARM.
IT WAS ABOUT 9:15.
I CAME IN EARLY
TO DO SOME PAPERWORK.
THIS IS THE PAST TIMES
ANTIQUE MART ON 2nd AVENUE?
NO, I HAVE
MY OWN SHOP.
THEY GIVE US ALL KEYS
TO THE FRONT DOOR
SO WE CAN COME AND GO
ON OUR OWN TIME.
DID YOU SEE ANYONE ELSE
IN THE BUILDING
YOU DIDN'T RECOGNIZE?
NO. I DID SEE JOSIE.
SHE SELLS AUTOGRAPHS
ON THE GROUND FLOOR.
WAS THE MAN WAITING THERE
WHEN YOU GOT TO YOUR SHOP?
NO. I WAS WORKING
IN THE BACK,
AND WHEN I CAME OUT
TO USE THE RESTROOM,
HE WAS
GOING THROUGH MY BAG.
NEXT THING I KNEW,
HE PULLED OUT A KNIFE
FROM HIS RIGHT POCKET,
AND HE CUT ME,
AND I FELL DOWN.
THEN HE TOOK
SOME SILVER GOBLETS
AND STUCK THEM
IN HIS COAT
AND RAN AWAY.
CAN YOU
DESCRIBE THIS GUY?
LIKE I SAID, HE WAS BLACK,
AND I THINK HE WAS BIG,
BUT I WAS TRYING
TO LOOK AWAY
SO HE WOULDN'T KILL ME.
CLIFFORD,
IT WAS A NIGHTMARE.
I THOUGHT I WAS DEAD.
IT'S OKAY, NIKKI.
NOW, CALM DOWN.
IT'S ALL OVER.
I LOST BLOOD!
HOW CAN I
EVER GO BACK THERE?
NOT ENOUGH
HE ROBS HER.
HE'S GOT TO CUT
A HELPLESS WOMAN.
THE STITCHES HURT,
AND I THINK MY MEDICATION
IS WEARING OFF.
COULD YOU
FIND A DOCTOR?
SURE.
I WANT A FULL‐COURT PRESS
ON THIS, ARTHUR.
WHOEVER DID THIS,
I WANT THE GUY.
YEAH.
COUNSELOR.
AM I
IN THE WAY?
YEAH, BUT WE'LL LET IT
SLIDE THIS TIME.
THANKS.
YOU NEED US?
NO. I JUST CAME BY
ON THAT PEDESTRIAN STRUCK,
BUT SORENSON AND SIPOWICZ
APPARENTLY HAVE IT
ALL WORKED OUT.
MUST BE BREAKING
YOUR HEART,
NOT HAVING TO DO
SIX HOURS OF PAPERWORK.
YEAH, I'LL TRY
AND GET OVER IT.
I'VE GOT TO GO
TAKE A STATEMENT.
UH, SAY, D.,
I'VE GOT THESE TWO TICKETS
FOR TOMORROW,
FOR THIS DOO‐WOP NIGHT
THEY'RE HAVING
AT THE CHANTICLEER,
BUT KATIE'S DOING
A PLAY AT SCHOOL.
I‐I NOTICED YOU GOT
SOME DOO‐WOP CDs
IN YOUR TRUCK.
YOU DID, HUH?
GO AHEAD, TAKE 'EM.
WELL, BACK TO WORK.
SO, UH, AHEM ‐‐
SO, YOU LIKE DOO‐WOP?
IF YOU'RE ASKING ME OUT,
I DON'T THINK SO.
OH, I'M NOT
ASKING YOU OUT.
I'D JUST HATE TO SEE
THESE TICKETS GO TO WASTE.
I DON'T THINK SO.
WHY NOT?
I MEAN, FOLKS
IN HIGH‐STRESS JOBS LIKE OURS
GOT TO RELAX SOMETIMES,
AND I DON'T SEE
WHAT YOU'D HAVE AGAINST ME
AND YOU KICKING BACK.
WELL, PROBABLY NOTHING,
EXCEPT US INTERACTING
SO CLOSE IN OUR JOBS,
THE CHANCES OF SOMETHING
AWKWARD HAPPENING
IS GOOD REASON
FOR US NOT KICKING BACK.
SO, WHAT TIME
SHOULD I PICK YOU UP?
DIDN'T YOU HEAR
WHAT I SAID?
WELL, YOU SAID YOU'VE GOT
NOTHING AGAINST GOING OUT.
THERE'S JUST AS MUCH CHANCE
WE'D HAVE A GOOD TIME.
8:00.
WEAR SOMETHING NICE.
DON'T WORRY
ABOUT ME.
YOU GOT A MINUTE?
SURE, PARTNER.
HOW LONG YOU BEEN
WORKING THAT ONE UP?
WORKING WHAT UP?
I HAD A COUPLE OF TICKETS
I COULDN'T USE...
GREG.
I FIGURED YOU TWO
COULD USE A LITTLE NUDGE.
MM‐HMM.
DID YOU ASK HER?
THAT'S
NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.
CRIME SCENE
DUSTED FOR PRINTS?
YEAH. NO PRINTS
ON THE KNIFE.
THE BUILDING HAS SECURITY
CAMERAS AT THE ENTRANCES.
WE GOT THE MANAGER
ON HIS WAY IN NOW
WITH VIDEOS.
WE'LL ALSO CHECK THE 61s
FOR ANY SIMILAR PATTERNS
IN THE AREA.
CAPTAIN BASS WANTS US
TO KEEP HIM POSTED.
BOSS,
LET ME RUN SOMETHING
PAST YOU.
ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO,
MRS. BASS WAS CAUGHT
IN A FIRE
WHERE SHE WAS WORKING.
YEAH. I REMEMBER.
I WAS IN UNIFORM.
DEPARTMENT ASSIGNED ME
TO NURSEMAID MRS. BASS.
THERE WAS NEVER ANY EVIDENCE
TO SUBSTANTIATE THIS,
BUT ONE OF THE DETECTIVES
ON THE CASE
SAID THEY ALWAYS FELT
SHE MIGHT HAVE
SET THAT FIRE HERSELF.
DIANE, YOU GOING WHERE
I THINK YOU ARE WITH THIS?
LET'S JUST WORK THE CASE,
END OF STORY.
RIGHT.
THIS IS MY DAD BILL.
BILL.
RETIRED
FROM THE JOB.
DID ALL MY TIME
IN BROOKLYN.
GOOD TO MEET YOU.
EXCUSE ME.
SORRY TO HEAR
ABOUT YOUR NEPHEW.
HE WAS
LIKE MY SON.
UH, STEVE'S GIRLFRIEND
MISTY.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
HI.
SO, WHAT'S GOING ON?
WE SMOOTHED IT OUT
WITH THE DRIVER.
HE WON'T BE
PRESSING CHARGES.
SO STEVE AND TEDDY
CAN GO?
YEAH.
THANK YOU.
Misty: YOU OKAY?
YEAH.
YOU'RE GOING HOME,
GUYS.
Andy: NOW,
THIS WAS AN ACCIDENT.
TERRY RAN RIGHT OUT
IN FRONT OF THAT CAR.
E.M.S., THEY SAID THEY
SMELLED ALCOHOL ON TERRY.
HAD YOU GUYS
BEEN DRINKING?
A LITTLE, YEAH.
WELL, WE STRUCK THE SET
OF THE SHOW
WE WERE WORKING ON.
WE WORKED ALL NIGHT.
WE CELEBRATED A LITTLE.
WAS TERRY DRUNK?
I GUESS MAYBE HE WAS.
EITHER WAY, THIS IS
OVER WITH, RIGHT?
THIS DRIVER, HE STEPPED UP
IN A BIG WAY
BY NOT BRINGING CHARGES.
WOULD HE BE AMENABLE
TO AN APOLOGY?
YOU HEARD ME.
I'LL GO SEE.
IF EITHER OF YOU TWO
SEE HIM ON THE STREET
AND EVEN LOOK FUNNY
AT HIM,
WE'RE LOCKING YOU UP.
I GOT IT.
I LOST MY BROTHER,
AND I LOST MY HEAD,
AND I'M SORRY.
IT WAS AN ACCIDENT...
OKAY.
AND I'M SORRY
YOU LOST YOUR BROTHER.
Andy: ALL RIGHT.
COME ON.
I'LL GET YOU HOME.
THANKS.
SURE.
AND, UH,
TELL LIEUTENANT FANCY THANKS.
[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]
CAPTAIN.
HOW'S YOUR WIFE DOING?
SHE'S IN A PANIC.
SHE CAN'T SLEEP.
THEY HAD TO KNOCK HER OUT
WITH DRUGS.
SHE SAYS SHE'S NEVER
GOING BACK TO WORK
AS LONG AS THAT MANIAC'S
OUT THERE.
SO SHE'S
STILL IN THE HOSPITAL?
YEAH, THEY'RE KEEPING HER
OVERNIGHT.
WHERE ARE WE
WITH THIS CASE?
MEDAVOY AND JONES
ARE WAITING
FOR THE MANAGER
OF THE ANTIQUE MART
TO LOOK THROUGH
SECURITY TAPES.
LET THEM WORK
THROUGH THE NIGHT.
I'M AUTHORIZING
ANY OVERTIME.
YOU NEED ANY HELP
FROM OTHER UNITS,
I'LL TALK TO THE CHIEF
OF DETECTIVES MYSELF.
I THINK
WE CAN HANDLE IT.
NO, I'M NOT SAYING
ANY DIFFERENT.
I'M JUST SAYING,
DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO.
YEAH. I UNDERSTAND.
GOOD.
ANY DEVELOPMENTS,
I WANT TO BE KEPT UP TO SPEED.
ABSOLUTELY.
JOHN BIZETTI.
I RUN THE PAST TIMES
ANTIQUE MART.
MR. BIZETTI,
HAVEN'T I SEEN YOU
ON "THE ANTIQUE TREASURE HUNT"
APPRAISING OLD TOYS?
8:00 P. M. SUNDAYS.
I NEVER MISS IT.
I'VE GOT SOME PIECES
I WOULD LOVE
TO HAVE SOMEONE TAKE
A LOOK AT SOMETIME.
NOT THIS HIPPO?
NO, I'VE GOT
SOME LEAD SOLDIERS
AND ONE OF THOSE OLD
TEDDY BEARS STUFFED WITH STRAW.
HERE'S MY CARD.
CALL ME.
I'M HERE TO SEE
DETECTIVE JONES.
UH, DETECTIVE JONES.
JOHN BIZETTI
FROM THE ANTIQUE MART.
THESE ARE FOR YOU.
OKAY.
MY PARTNER
DETECTIVE MEDAVOY.
HOW ABOUT
WE GO IN HERE?
HOW'S SHE DOING ‐‐
MRS. BASS?
SHE'S, UH,
STABLE FOR THE MOMENT.
I DID CONSIDER SHUTTING DOWN
FOR THE REST OF THE DAY,
BUT THERE'S A FLOCK
OF BUYERS IN TOWN
FOR THE AMERICAN FURNITURE
SHOW AT THE ARMORY.
WELL, WERE YOU
AROUND THIS MORNING
WHEN MRS. BASS
GOT ATTACKED?
NO. LAST NIGHT
I STAYED OVER
VISITING MY SISTER
IN ASTORIA.
BESIDES SECURITY
AND THE JANITORS,
WHO ELSE YOU GOT
WORKING IN THE BUILDING?
WE HAVE OUR OWN MEN
HANDLING STOCK AND DELIVERIES.
I BROUGHT A LIST
OF NAMES AND ADDRESSES.
SELLING CUPS AND PLATES,
YOU WOULDN'T THINK
MRS. BASS WOULD BE
A PRIME TARGET
FOR THIEVES.
MRS. BASS DEALS
IN 19th CENTURY
BLACK LABEL BELLEEK CHINA
FROM NORTHERN IRELAND.
YOUR AVERAGE THIEF
MIGHT NOT KNOW
THERE ISN'T MUCH DEMAND.
I JUST MEANT IT WASN'T
SOMETHING YOU COULD PAWN EASY,
LIKE JEWELRY.
THIS IS THE FILE
WE KEEP ON SHOPLIFTERS,
THOSE WHO AREN'T
OTHER ANTIQUE DEALERS.
I TAKE A PHOTO,
GET WHATEVER
PERSONAL INFORMATION I CAN.
I THEN HAVE THEM SIGN
A FORM SAYING
IF THEY'RE FOUND
ON THE PREMISES AGAIN,
THEY WILL BE CHARGED
WITH CRIMINAL TRESPASS.
THAT'S VERY ORGANIZED.
THANK YOU.
IN THE YELLOW BAG
YOU'LL FIND
TAPES FROM
OUR SECURITY CAMERAS
COVERING
THE PAST THREE WEEKS,
DATED AND COLOR‐CODED
BY FRONT OR REAR ENTRANCE.
IF YOU CAN HELP US
WITH THAT COLOR CODING,
WE SHOULD START
WITH THE ONES FROM YESTERDAY.
I GOT TO TAKE
THEO TO THE DOCTOR.
NOTHING'S WRONG?
NO. IT'S JUST
HIS CHECKUP,
BUT HE FEELS BETTER
IF I'M THERE WITH HIM.
LOST TIME, JOHN.
SURE. WHAT TIME DO YOU
NEED ME TONIGHT FOR THEO?
UH, LET'S SAY 6:00.
LOOK, JOHN, YOU GOING
TO BABYSIT THEO
ON ANY REGULAR‐TYPE BASIS,
YOU'RE GOING TO GET PAID,
AND I WON'T HEAR
ANOTHER WORD.
SEE YOU AT 6:00.
I WAS WONDERING,
WOULD YOU LIKE TO GRAB
A COCKTAIL LATER?
MAYBE YOU COULD BRING
THAT LEAD SOLDIER.
I'D LOVE TO, BUT I HAVE
ANOTHER ENGAGEMENT.
WELL, IS IT SERIOUS?
NO, I'M JUST BABYSITTING.
HOW AWFULLY DOMESTIC.
YOU'VE GOT MY CARD.
HEY, DIANE,
YOU GOT A MINUTE FOR ME?
SURE.
I'M, UH, I'M GLAD
YOU'RE BACK TO FULL DUTY.
YEAH. THANKS.
YOU KNOW, BEING OFF
AND GETTING BACK ON
HAS GIVEN ME SOME TIME
TO CLEAR MY HEAD.
MAYBE THAT'S
A SILVER LINING.
DIANE, I KNOW I'VE
BEHAVED BAD TOWARD YOU,
AND YOU
DIDN'T DESERVE THAT.
DANNY, NEITHER ONE OF US
BEHAVED ANY WAY TO BE PROUD OF.
I JUST HOPE
WE CAN STILL BE FRIENDS.
I'M NOT GOING TO KEEP ON
MOPING AROUND HERE
LIKE I'M SOME SICK PUPPY.
IF I CAN'T COME THROUGH
WITH MY PART
LIKE I'M
A MATURE ADULT,
AND IT KEEPS ON
MAKING YOU UNCOMFORTABLE
LIKE IT HAS BEEN,
THEN IT'S ON ME
TO BE THE ONE TO LEAVE.
NO ONE WANTS YOU
LEAVING HERE.
I'M NOT SAYING
IT'S WHAT YOU WANT.
I'M SAYING IT'S MY PROBLEM
TO DEAL WITH.
OKAY.
THANKS.
ARE YOU SURE
THIS DOESN'T BOTHER YOU?
NOT AT ALL.
I MADE THAT VASE
A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO.
YEAH?
IT'S NICE. HOBBY?
NO. I TOOK A CLASS.
I, UH, I BEEN THINKING
ABOUT DOING THAT MYSELF,
LEARN ITALIAN
OR SOMETHING.
I'VE BEEN SAYING THAT
FOR A COUPLE
OF DECADES, THOUGH.
I'D BEEN SAYING IT
FOR 16 YEARS.
THAT'S WHEN I MOVED
MY MOTHER IN WITH ME.
SHE WAS SICK.
YEAH. I REMEMBER
EDDIE MENTIONED
SOMETHING ABOUT THAT.
M.S. SHE DIED
TWO YEARS AGO THIS JULY.
THAT'S HARD.
I STRUGGLED
A LITTLE BIT,
WHETHER OR NOT TO PUT HER
IN A HOME.
I DON'T REGRET IT
AT ALL.
SAYS A LOT
ABOUT YOU, CYNTHIA.
THE ONLY THING WAS,
I‐I MISSED OUT
ON OTHER THINGS.
YEAH, SURE.
AND THEN,
WHEN SHE WAS GONE,
I REALIZED THAT
DEFINITELY IT WAS TIME
TO DO THE THINGS
I COULDN'T BEFORE,
LIKE TAKE
A POTTERY CLASS
OR LEARN
HOW TO TANGO.
TANGO, HUH?
HOW'D THAT GO?
UH,
CLUMSILY,
BUT I TRIED IT.
YOU'VE GOT TO WATCH OUT
FOR THEM TANGO INSTRUCTORS.
LOW‐RENT LOTHARIOS,
MOSTLY.
I HAD A CASE ONE TIME,
THIS GUY, UH,
DAVID, HE WAS MILKING
THIS 60‐YEAR‐OLD WIDOW
FOR 30 GRAND.
I USED TO CALL HIM DAVE,
JUST TO PISS HIM OFF.
SO, ANYWAY,
THAT'S MY NEW THING.
I DON'T LOOK BACK
AND THINK ABOUT WHAT
I COULD HAVE DONE,
AND I DON'T PUT IT OFF.
I REALLY
WANT TO LIVE NOW.
SO WHAT'S NEXT
ON YOUR LIST ‐‐
BUNGEE JUMPING?
YOU'RE NEXT
ON MY LIST, ANDY,
BUT I JUST
RAN OUT OF NERVES,
SO, IF YOU WANT THIS,
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO MAKE THE NEXT ‐‐
CALL US OUT AT 7:00
IN THE MORNING
FOR A BAR BRAWL?
BAR BRAWL
FEATURING THE BROTHER
OF THE GUY GOT KILLED
IN THE STRUCK PEDESTRIAN
YOU CAUGHT YESTERDAY.
Danny: THAT'S STEVE RIORDAN,
SUMANSKI'S COUSIN?
NO, THAT'S BILLY SPRAUL,
WHO LOST A FIGHT TO RIORDAN,
ALTHOUGH IT WASN'T
MUCH OF A FIGHT, I GUESS.
I GOT WITNESSES SAYING
IT WAS OVER INSIDE 15 SECONDS.
WHERE'S RIORDAN NOW?
NOT HERE.
GROWING
A MUSTACHE, HUH?
LITTLE BROTHER TELLS ME
IT'S GOING GOOD
WITH YOU AND MY NIECE.
WE'VE HAD
SOME NICE DINNERS.
JUST WANTED TO GET THIS
OUT OF THE WAY UP FRONT.
WHEN YOU TWO
GET HITCHED,
YOU CAN CALL ME
UNCLE EDDIE.
MESSIN' WITH YOU.
HA HA.
SHANE CHAMBERS.
THIS IS HIS JOINT.
YOU KNOW
STEVE RIORDAN?
KIND OF.
HOW ABOUT
THIS BILLY SPRAUL?
YEAH, A LITTLE BIT.
HIM AND RIORDAN
HAVE ANY HISTORY?
MAYBE.
THEY KNEW EACH OTHER.
YOU SEE
HOW THE FIGHT STARTED?
DIDN'T.
YOU GOT ANY IDEA
WHAT THAT WAS ABOUT?
NOPE.
YOU TRY
STOPPING THEM?
THEY TOOK IT
OUTSIDE.
THESE IRISH BARTENDERS,
YOU CAN'T SHUT 'EM UP.
CAN I GO NOW?
NO. GO WAIT INSIDE.
ALL RIGHT,
LOOK FOR RIORDAN,
AND IF HE'S IN THE WIND,
CALL SUMANSKI.
SUMANSKI'S GETTING CALLED
NO MATTER WHAT.
I'LL TRY
TO REACH RIORDAN.
HEY, ANDY,
ALL KIDDING ASIDE,
I HOPE IT WORKS OUT
FOR YOU TWO.
GIBSON, WE JUST
BEEN HAVING DINNERS.
DON'T BE GETTING YOUR
TUX PRESSED OR NOTHING.
ABSOLUTELY,
BUT SO AS YOU KNOW,
CYNTHIA
REALLY LIKES YOU.
YEAH, AND I
LIKE HER, TOO.
SHE'S AT THAT AGE,
RIGHT?
SO IF YOU'RE
JUST LOOKING TO, YOU KNOW,
HAVE A LITTLE
GRAB‐ASS,
MAYBE YOU'LL
SAVE HER SOME TIME,
BUT, HEY, I'M NOT TRYING
TO GET IN YOUR BUSINESS HERE.
GOD BLESS.
HOPE IT WORKS OUT.
I NEED TO TALK
TO YOU GUYS.
YEAH? WE BEEN NEEDING
TO TALK TO YOU, TOO.
MY COUSIN STEVE
GOT IN A FIGHT.
YOU DIDN'T GET NONE
OF THE MESSAGES WE LEFT YOU?
I'VE BEEN UP
SINCE 5:00 A. M.
DEALING WITH STEVE.
WHERE IS HE NOW?
I'VE GOT HIM
AT A HOTEL.
HE'S SCARED
OUT OF HIS WITS
THINKING THE FIGHT HE WAS IN,
THE GUY MIGHT HAVE DIED.
HE DID.
YEAH, I JUST FOUND THAT OUT
WHEN I WALKED IN.
STEVIE ONLY THREW
A COUPLE OF PUNCHES,
TOTAL FREAK ACCIDENT.
IF IT'S AN ACCIDENT,
THEN WHY AIN'T HE HERE?
I'M LETTING HIM SOBER UP
WHILE I FEEL IT OUT
WITH YOU GUYS.
WERE YOU THERE?
NO. I WAS AT THE TOWN LOUNGE
WITH ALL OF THEM,
BUT I BAILED BEFORE THEY
WENT TO O'LEARY'S.
BUT STEVIE'S SAYING ‐‐
WE DON'T WANT TO HEAR
STEVIE'S VERSION FROM YOU.
YOU'VE GOT AN HOUR
TO PRODUCE YOUR COUSIN,
OR YOU'LL BE
OBSTRUCTING AN INVESTIGATION.
DO I NEED TO GET HIM
A LAWYER?
YOU TELL US.
THIS WAS AN ACCIDENT.
THEN GO GET YOUR COUSIN
AND WE'LL WORK IT OUT.
Y'ALL KNOW HOW TO RUIN
A MAN'S MORNING.
DON'T WORRY.
YOU'LL BE GETTING
A FORMAL LETTER OF APOLOGY
IN THE MAIL.
I WAS GOING TO GET ME
SOME BREAKFAST IN BED.
SO, WHERE WERE YOU
YESTERDAY MORNING, JESSE,
SAY, 9:30?
IN BED
WITH MY OTHER
MAIN GIRLFRIEND SHAUNA.
"OTHER MAIN GIRLFRIEND"?
OOH, MY MAN HERE.
SO, UH, SHAUNA'S PREPARED
TO TELL US
THAT YOU WERE
WITH HER?
SURE.
SO, I GUESS
WHERE YOU WEREN'T
WAS THE PAST TIMES
ANTIQUE MART.
ANTIQUES! DO I LOOK
LIKE I'M INTO ANTIQUES
TO YOU?
WELL, WE'VE GOT YOU
ON VIDEOTAPE
GOING INTO THE PLACE
YESTERDAY MORNING AT 9:05.
OH, PAST TIMES.
I JUST KNOW IT
AS PAST TIMES,
THE KNICKKNACK PLACE.
ANTIQUE PART KIND OF ‐‐
KIND OF CONFUSED ME.
YOU ALL RIGHT?
YOU NEED A MINUTE?
YEAH, I WAS THERE
BROWSING.
SO, UH,
WHAT ABOUT THIS, UH,
PIECE OF PAPER
BANNING YOU FROM THE PLACE
THAT YOU SIGNED
THREE WEEKS AGO
WHEN THEY THREW YOU OUT
FOR STEALING WALLETS?
DIDN'T DO MUCH GOOD,
NOW, DID IT?
JESSE, IT'S BETTER YOU TELL US
WHY YOU WERE THERE,
'CAUSE IF YOU DON'T,
WE'VE GOT OUR OWN STORY
EXPLAINING IT.
YEAH, AND WHAT
WOULD THAT BE?
YOU WERE ATTACKING
A LADY IN HER SHOP,
ROBBING HER
AND STABBING HER.
WHEW. ALL RIGHT,
WELL, THEN,
I'LL TELL YOU WHY I
WAS THERE, ALL RIGHT?
THE ANTIQUE MART FOLKS
GET IN THERE EARLY,
TOSS DOWN THEIR PURSES,
GO HIT THE RESTROOMS
THINKING NO ONE'S THERE
BUT THEMSELVES.
SO YOU WERE THERE YESTERDAY
GRABBING UP WALLETS?
ONE WALLET OFF THAT OLD LADY
WITH THE AUTOGRAPH SHOP,
BUT HOLD UP.
WAS THERE REALLY
A LADY STABBED,
OR DID I JUST GET
WORKED INTO ADMITTING
I STOLE A WALLET?
YEAH, SHE GOT STABBED,
AND WHEN SHE COMES IN,
ARE YOU WILLING TO STAND
IN THE LINEUP?
HELL, YEAH.
WHATEVER I CAN DO
TO HELP YOU GUYS LOOK
THE OTHER WAY ON THAT WALLET.
WHERE'S THIS WALLET NOW?
I STUFFED IT
BEHIND
THE THIRD‐FLOOR RADIATOR,
MINUS SOME CASH
AND A CREDIT CARD
THAT MAYBE
GOT USED ONCE.
HAD THESE GUYS
WORK LATE LAST NIGHT.
THEY GOT BACK ON IT
EARLY THIS MORNING.
I APPRECIATE THAT.
WE BROUGHT IN
ONE SUSPECT
OFF THE SECURITY TAPE,
BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK
LIKE HE'S THE GUY.
WE ALSO GOT
AN EX‐EMPLOYEE ON TAPE,
RIGHT TIME FRAME.
GOT FIRED TWO WEEKS AGO
FOR STEALING A JADE STATUE
FROM THE STOCKROOM.
BUILDING MANAGER SAID
HE GOT REAL ANGRY,
MENTIONED SOMETHING
ABOUT PAYBACK BEING A BITCH.
AND THIS GUY
WASN'T HOME LAST NIGHT,
SO WE'RE GOING TO GO
LOOK FOR HIM NOW.
ALL RIGHT.
GO AHEAD AND DO THAT.
YOU'RE DOING
EVERYTHING YOU CAN?
ABSOLUTELY.
'CAUSE I GOT ENOUGH
ON MY MIND ALREADY.
I GOT IT COVERED.
WHY DON'T YOU
GO BE WITH YOUR WIFE?
NO, I JUST ‐‐
I JUST
CAN'T SIT THERE,
NOT WHILE HER ATTACKER'S
STILL OUT RUNNING AROUND.
IT'S GOING
TO BE ALL RIGHT.
YOU CAN TRUST
THESE GUYS.
LET'S GO.
SIT DOWN.
WHAT HAPPENED
AT O'LEARY'S LAST NIGHT?
WELL, BILLY WAS TELLING ME
TO KEEP MY VOICE DOWN.
HERE I AM, MOURNING
MY BROTHER'S DEATH,
SO WE TOOK IT OUTSIDE.
WHY'D YOU RUN?
I WAS LOADED,
AND I DIDN'T KNOW
HE WAS HURT THAT BAD,
OR I WOULD HAVE STAYED.
WHOSE IDEA WAS IT
TO TAKE IT OUTSIDE?
I'M NOT SURE.
ALTHOUGH I'M NOT SAYING
IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN MINE,
IT'S JUST ‐‐ WHAT WITH SEEING MY
BROTHER DEAD
EARLIER ON THE STREET
THAT DAY ‐‐
QUIT BRINGING UP
YOUR DEAD BROTHER
AS AN EXCUSE,
ALL RIGHT?
YOU SPENT THAT
ON ASSAULTING THE DRIVER
OF THE CAR YESTERDAY.
YEAH, I KNOW
I'VE BEEN AN ASSHOLE,
BUT I SWEAR
I'LL QUIT DRINKING.
JUST, PLEASE ‐‐
JUST GIVE ME
A BREAK HERE.
NAPOLEON RAPP?
WHY, WHAT YOU WANT?
YEAH, WE NEED YOU
TO COME DOWN
AND ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS.
NO. NO WAY.
GO GET HIM!
HEY! COME HERE!
YOU ALL RIGHT, GREG?
YEAH, I'M FINE.
WHAT THE HELL ARE
YOU THINKING, ASSHOLE?
YEAH, I HOPE
THAT BIZETTI'S HAPPY NOW.
MAN, HE TOLD ME
I WAS GOING TO JAIL.
I'VE JUST BEEN WAITING
FOR SOMEONE TO COME AND GET ME.
YEAH, WHO ARE WE
TALKING ABOUT, NAPOLEON?
BIZETTI ‐‐ JOHN BIZETTI.
THE GUY WHO RUNS
THE PLACE I WORK,
OR USED TO WORK.
LOOK, MAN,
I'M SORRY ABOUT KNOCKING
YOU DOWN, OKAY?
I MEAN, YOU JUST WAIT
AND WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO COME,
YOU'RE LOOKING
OVER YOUR SHOULDER,
AND WHEN IT FINALLY COMES,
YOU'RE STILL FREAKED OUT.
WELL, HOW COME
YOU GOT FIRED?
I USED TO WORK THEIR SECURITY
FOR TWO YEARS.
SIX MONTHS BACK,
THE PLACE GETS SOLD.
THE NEW OWNERS
GIVE US THIS BIZETTI.
GETS OUT HIS BROOM,
WANTS A BETTER IMAGE,
ONE BY ONE, HE STARTS
MOVING OUT THE OLD CREW
FOR THESE PRETTY BOYS.
BIZETTI TOLD US
YOU STOLE A JADE
INDONESIAN STATUE.
HE KNOWS I DIDN'T
STEAL THAT STATUE.
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO,
THROW AWAY MY JOB
SO I CAN STICK
SOME UGLY‐ASS GREEN ELEPHANT
ON MY TV?
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS
PROBABLY TOOK THAT STATUE.
IT HAPPENED ON MY WATCH.
THAT'S WHY BIZETTI SAYS
I DID IT.
I'M TELLING YOU,
I DIDN'T TAKE IT.
SO IF YOU DON'T
WORK THERE NO MORE,
WHAT WERE YOU DOING
BACK THERE YESTERDAY MORNING?
SURVEILLANCE TAPE SHOWS YOU
COMING IN AT 9:17.
I WENT TO PICK UP
MY SEVERANCE CHECK.
THAT'S IT.
YOU LEFT
A HALF‐HOUR LATER.
TOOK YOU THAT LONG
TO GET YOUR CHECK?
THE WOMAN IN ACCOUNTING
SAID SHE WAS HAVING PROBLEMS
WITH HER PRINTER.
CALL HER UP.
SO WHILE SHE'S FUTZING
WITH THE COMPUTER,
IS THAT WHEN YOU
SLIPPED DOWN TO LEVEL "B"
TO GET A LITTLE SOMETHING
EXTRA FOR YOUR TROUBLE?
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
ONE OF THE MERCHANTS
WAS ROBBED AND STABBED
THE SAME TIME
YOU WERE THERE.
BIZETTI JUST DOESN'T QUIT,
DOES HE?
LOOK, I WAS A SECURITY GUARD
THERE TWO YEARS,
PROTECTING THOSE PEOPLE.
NOW I'M A ROBBING,
STABBING MANIAC.
WE'RE GOING TO CHECK
WITH ACCOUNTING,
MAKE SURE
YOU WERE THERE.
NAPOLEON, IF YOU DIDN'T
DO NOTHING WRONG,
WHY DIDN'T YOU
JUST COME WITH US?
WHY SHOVE A COP?
I TOLD YOU ‐‐
I FREAKED OUT.
NOW I'M GOING
TO WIND UP IN JAIL
FOR SOMETHING
I DIDN'T EVER DO.
MAY I HELP YOU?
I'M HERE TO SPEAK
TO A DETECTIVE.
REGARDING...
WHAT HAPPENED OUTSIDE
O'LEARY'S THIS MORNING.
WHAT ABOUT IT?
RIGHT THIS WAY, MA'AM.
WERE YOU THERE?
EXCUSE ME, OFFICER.
RIGHT THIS WAY,
AND YOU CAN HAVE
A SEAT IN HERE.
DETECTIVES, THERE'S
A WOMAN IN THE COFFEE ROOM
WHO WANTS TO TALK
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED
AT O'LEARY'S
THIS MORNING.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
SIT DOWN.
DID SUMANSKI HEAR
WHAT SHE CAME IN FOR?
I'M DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ.
THIS IS DETECTIVE SORENSON.
I'M TRACY THOMAS.
HAVE A SEAT.
BILLY SPRAUL DIED OUTSIDE
O'LEARY'S THIS MORNING?
THAT'S RIGHT.
AND A GUY
NAMED STEVE RIORDAN
WHO HIT HIM
KILLED HIM?
THAT'S RIGHT.
DO YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT
WHAT HAPPENED
BETWEEN THOSE TWO
AT THE TOWN LOUNGE,
THE BAR THEY WERE AT
BEFORE O'LEARY'S?
WHY DON'T YOU
JUST TELL US?
I WAS AT THE TOWN LOUNGE
WITH MY HUSBAND,
AND THIS STEVE,
WHO I DON'T KNOW,
HE'S AT THE BAR
WITH FRIENDS,
AND HE'S GETTING LOUD,
AND ONE OF THE THINGS
HE WAS GETTING LOUD ABOUT
IS THE NIGGER
WHO KILLED HIS BROTHER
THAT MORNING,
AND MY HUSBAND ‐‐
WE WERE THE ONLY
BLACK PEOPLE IN THIS PLACE,
SO I CALMED HIM DOWN,
AND I ASKED FOR THE CHECK,
BUT BILLY,
WHO I DO KIND OF KNOW,
HE GOES OVER TO STEVE,
AND HE ASKS HIM
TO SHOW A LITTLE RESPECT
FOR THE PEOPLE
AT THE BAR,
MEANING US.
STEVE GOES OFF ON BILLY.
DID THEY FIGHT?
NO.
BILLY LEAVES,
AND STEVE, I MEAN ‐‐
HIS FACE WAS RED,
HE WAS SO ANGRY,
AND HE SAID HE WAS
GOING TO KILL BILLY
IF HE EVER
SAW HIM AGAIN.
I HEARD IT,
AND SO DID MY HUSBAND,
BUT HE DOESN'T WANT
TO GET INVOLVED.
HE DOESN'T
EVEN KNOW I'M HERE.
STEVE USED THOSE WORDS
SPECIFICALLY?
"IF I EVER SEE
THAT ASSHOLE AGAIN,
I'LL KILL HIM."
WHAT'S WITH
THE GRIM LOOKS HERE?
YOU NEED TO GET
YOUR COUSIN A LAWYER.
I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WERE
GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.
THAT'S BEFORE WE GOT
THE REAL STORY.
AND WHAT STORY'S THAT?
GET A LAWYER.
WE'LL HOLD HIM ‐‐
I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT'S BEEN SAID.
OR ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE ME
HEAR IT FROM SOMEBODY ELSE?
APPARENTLY, YOUR COUSIN SAID
HE WAS GOING TO KILL BILLY
AT THE TOWN LOUNGE.
ACCORDING TO WHO ‐‐
THAT BLACK CHICK YOU GOT
STASHED IN THE COFFEE ROOM?
CAREFUL, SUMANSKI.
NOW YOU BETTER START
BEING CAREFUL.
WELL, THIS IS CRAZY.
TELL ME I GOT
TO GET HIM A LAWYER NOW,
AFTER YOU'VE ALREADY
TAKEN HIS STATEMENT?
YOU'RE SELLING ME ICE
IN THE WINTER HERE, GUYS.
WHERE'S THE HELP?
THE HELP WAS GETTING HIM
KICKED FOR YOU YESTERDAY,
WHEN THIS HOTHEAD SHOULD HAVE
BEEN COOLING OFF IN A CELL,
AND THE HELP WAS
WHAT WE WERE TRYING TO DO
BEFORE WE FOUND OUT HE SAID
HE WAS GOING TO KILL BILLY
IF HE SAW HIM AGAIN.
FIRST WE LOSE HIS BROTHER,
NOW THIS.
GET THAT LAWYER.
LISTEN, UH, BOSS,
I DON'T WANT YOU
TO TAKE THIS THE WRONG WAY,
BUT SOMETHING KEEPS
BOTHERING ME ABOUT THAT KNIFE.
DIANE ‐‐
IT'S NOT
A BUSHWHACKER'S KNIFE.
IT'S A FILLET KNIFE.
IT SO HAPPENS
THERE'S A FANCY KITCHEN STORE
A BLOCK
FROM THE ANTIQUE MART.
I WENT DOWN THERE,
AND TWO DAYS AGO,
THEY SOLD ONE
EXACTLY LIKE IT TO MRS. BASS.
SHE CHARGED IT.
YOU'RE IMPLYING
SHE CUT HERSELF?
GREG AND BALDWIN ‐‐
ARE THEY GETTING ANYWHERE
WITH SUSPECTS
FROM THE SECURITY TAPES?
I'M NOT GOING TO APPROACH
CAPTAIN BASS ON THIS
BASED JUST OFF
WHAT YOU'RE GIVING ME.
THEN LET ME
GO TALK TO HER.
ARE YOU SURE
YOU WANT TO DO THIS?
IT COULD KICK OFF
A DUST STORM,
MIGHT NOT BE GOOD
FOR ANYONE.
BOSS, IF THIS WASN'T
A CAPTAIN'S WIFE,
WOULD WE EVEN BE HAVING
THIS CONVERSATION?
WOULD YOU BE TELLING ME
NOT TO GO
REINTERVIEW THE VICTIM?
OKAY. GO TALK TO HER.
MRS. BASS, UH...
YOU DON'T REMEMBER ME,
DO YOU?
YOU'RE THE DETECTIVE
WHO CAME YESTERDAY
TO ASK ME QUESTIONS.
I MEAN,
WE'VE MET BEFORE THAT.
10 YEARS AGO, WHEN YOU WERE
INJURED IN THE FIRE,
I WAS ONE
OF THE POLICEWOMEN
ASSIGNED TO YOU
AT THE HOSPITAL.
OH.
I WAS HOPING WE COULD TALK
ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY.
I'VE ALREADY
TOLD YOU EVERYTHING.
YOU SAID WHEN YOU CAME IN
ON THE MAN
WHO WAS ROBBING YOUR STORE,
THAT HE PULLED OUT
A KNIFE.
YES, THE ONE HE USED
TO STAB ME IN THE ARM.
DO YOU OWN A KNIFE
LIKE THAT AT HOME ‐‐
A 6‐INCH FILLETING KNIFE
WITH A MOTHER‐OF‐PEARL HANDLE?
NO, MY KNIVES
HAVE BLACK HANDLES.
THAT'S A RECEIPT
FROM THE DeVILLE‐WINN STORE
FOR A KNIFE YOU BOUGHT THE DAY
BEFORE YOU WERE ATTACKED.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
MRS. BASS,
THIS KNIFE IS IDENTICAL
TO THE ONE YOU WERE STABBED
IN THE LEFT ARM WITH.
YOU'RE RIGHT‐HANDED,
AREN'T YOU?
DOES MY HUSBAND
KNOW YOU'RE DOWN HERE
ASKING ME
THESE KINDS OF QUESTIONS?
YOUR STORY DOESN'T
ADD UP, MRS. BASS.
WE'VE CHECKED OUT EVERYONE
WHO ENTERED AND EXITED
THAT BUILDING YESTERDAY
THAT FITS THE DESCRIPTION
YOU GAVE US.
NONE OF THEM ROBBED
AND ATTACKED YOU.
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?
BECAUSE YOUR HUSBAND'S
GOT DETECTIVES WORKING
AROUND THE CLOCK TRYING
TO FIND WHO DID,
AND HE'S GOING TO HAVE THEM
KEEP ON WORKING
AND TAKING IN INNOCENT PEOPLE
FOR QUESTIONING,
BUT THEY'RE NOT GOING
TO FIND ANYONE, ARE THEY?
NO, I SUPPOSE THEY'RE NOT.
WHY DID YOU DO IT?
I JUST ‐‐ I JUST ‐‐
WANTED HIM TO SEE ME,
TO PAY ATTENTION TO ME.
[ SOBBING ]
SHE WENT FOR IT, BOSS.
ALL OF IT?
THIS AND THE OTHER THING.
HOW DO YOU WANT
TO HANDLE IT?
PUT DOWN ON YOUR PAPERWORK
"ALL LEADS EXHAUSTED."
GREG, BALDWIN.
YOU CAN CUT LOOSE
THAT EX‐EMPLOYEE.
HOW COME?
DIANE'S CLOSING OUT
THE CASE.
ALL LEADS EXHAUSTED.
BOSS, WE HAVEN'T GONE THROUGH
ALL THE VIDEOS YET.
GREG ‐‐
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SEE
ANYTHING ON THAT VIDEO.
BOSS, THAT EX‐EMPLOYEE
NAPOLEON,
WHEN WE PICKED HIM UP,
HE RESISTED.
PUT THAT BRUISE THERE
ON GREG.
YOU WANT TO COLLAR HIM
ON THAT?
NAH, WE CAN
CUT HIM LOOSE.
HERE COMES CAPTAIN BASS.
WHERE ARE WE
WITH THE CASE?
SIT DOWN FOR A MINUTE,
CAPTAIN.
I WANT YOU TO KNOW
ANYTHING I'M SAYING
STAYS IN THIS ROOM.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
DETECTIVE RUSSELL SPOKE
WITH YOUR WIFE AT THE HOSPITAL.
WHY AREN'T YOU
INFORMING ME?
THE KNIFE YOUR WIFE SAID
WAS USED TO STAB HER ‐‐
SHE BOUGHT THAT
HERSELF.
WHAT?
SHE TOLD DETECTIVE RUSSELL
SHE STABBED HERSELF
AND SHE MADE UP THE STORY
ABOUT BEING ROBBED.
SHE ALSO ADMITTED
TO STARTING THAT FIRE.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING,
ARTHUR?
CAPTAIN, NO ONE
IS LOOKING TO HURT YOU.
THIS IS ABOUT HELPING
YOUR WIFE.
YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN HER
WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG.
SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL,
SOPHISTICATED,
AND SHE WAS IN LOVE
WITH ME ‐‐ A COP.
SHE ALWAYS SAID
I MADE HER FEEL SAFE.
NOW...
SHE NEEDS YOUR HELP.
THAT'S WHAT SHE'S
LOOKING FOR.
YEAH.
I GOT MY 20 YEARS.
MAYBE I SHOULD
PUT IN MY PAPERS.
JUST GO BE
WITH YOUR WIFE NOW.
DON'T WORRY
ABOUT ALL THE REST OF IT.
I OWE YOU.
NO. NO, YOU DON'T.
PEOPLE ALWAYS SAID
YOU WERE A NATURAL LEADER
AND THAT YOU ALWAYS
PUT YOUR PEOPLE
AHEAD OF YOURSELF.
NOW I KNOW
HOW THEY FEEL.
[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]
[ RING ]
HELLO?
HEY, HOW'S IT GOING?
I WAS GOING TO CALL,
BUT THE DAY JUST SLIPPED
AWAY FROM ME.
NO, NOT AT ALL.
NO, I'M SORRY
IT CAME ACROSS LIKE THAT.
HEY, I RAN
