Street Justice (1991–1993): Season 1, Episode 5 - Tables Turned - full transcript

so

the stakeout was terminated at 10 30 pm

without appearance of either of the

suspect vehicles

before wasting valuable police time

we should try to square our informant

story with common sense

[Music]

police how badly it hurt

i'll be all right let's get him

[Music]



hands

[Music]

[Music]

you made

[Applause]

so

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

so

[Applause]

[Music]

she couldn't identify her attacker

because she was in shock



objection he's not a doctor he can't

testify to her medical condition

sustained she just been raped of course

she couldn't

sergeant pedro please just answer the

question before you

when did you first observe the defendant

jack walker in the garage

just before i found miss peck he was

moving away from her car

and when did you see him next when he

tried to run me over with his car

he tried to run you over with his car he

came around a corner i identified myself

he didn't stop i had to shoot out his

tire

please continue even then he continued

to resist

i had to chase him down in the garage

thank you sergeant boudreau

nothing further

of course he didn't stop most of us

wouldn't

not for a large crazed black man holding

a gun over us objection his race is

completely irrelevant

i wasn't crazed for all jack walker knew

sergeant boudreau was about to attack

him that is absurd

all right enough let's move on

are you sure the man you saw moving away

and the man in the car were the same

absolutely your report describes the man

is wearing a trench coat

while the other man in the car wasn't

didn't you find that odd

he must have left it on another level so

how come it's never been found

he was the same man your own report

indicates otherwise

he was the only man in the garage that

garage has an area of over 30

000 square feet he was in the vicinity

he didn't stop when i ordered him to

indicating to me

that he had something to hide indicating

to me that he was the wrong man in the

wrong place at the wrong time

walker was the only man any place thank

you sergeant pedro there's nothing else

now i'm sure that sergeant boudreau

thought he was doing the right thing

and i'm certainly not here to argue the

legitimacy of his tactics

but what's beyond argument is his utter

failure to link jack walker to an attack

on jesse peck

there is no case against my client there

is no reason for jack walker to suffer

further

the charges should be dismissed thank

you

ms spector the defendant's presence

at the crime scene and his subsequent

behavior are clearly indicative of his

guilt

the people submit that the defendant's

claim be denied

i'm sorry i don't see the people's case

you get some real evidence specter you

can refile

short of that i suggest you keep looking

mr walker you're free to go

court dismissed

don't think i'm anti-police

it's not my fault that your case was

full of holes

i know exactly what you're thinking that

woman would represent the devil for the

right fee

you have no idea what i'm thinking

if i don't represent jack walker there's

a line of lawyers waiting to take my

place

whatever that [ __ ] through the night you

know something boudreaux

you're a lousy loser

i hear that a lot

[Music]

okay hey there get you a couple more all

right be right back

here

take this to table seven but that one is

hers

oh i got him

hey heard you had a rough day in court

not really i was out of the rain

they bought me lunch good

later

i don't know how you do it do what

let it go so easily for me i'd be going

crazy about now

that would tend to spill over into the

rest of my life yeah but he raped that

girl and now he could

walk in here order a beer and we'd have

to serve him

doubtful he'll be walking in here oh it

gets me as he can

guys like him walk free and women have

to be scared i know how you feel

no you don't when you lock up at night

all you have to worry about are cash

receipts but a woman

we catch guys like jack walker we should

make sure they can't do it again

how do we do that oh i don't know

i'll think of something

[Music]

so

so

jack what are you doing here i was just

driving in my car

suddenly i was in your neighborhood so i

figured i'd drop in

you should have called you weren't here

how did you get in

the manager i explained that we were

friends

yeah for services rendered you're

expensive but worth every cent

mailing it to my office would've been

fine well that's a little impersonal

considering what we've been through

together

i figured since our professional

relationship was over we could continue

on another level

please leave chuck you make me feel a

little uncomfortable about my other

reason for coming but

what the hell you might as well have it

i'd rather not are you sure

i went to the best lingerie store in

town

yeah you look great in this

go victoria

go now

[Music]

i really should be going

last thing i want to do is wear out my

[Music]

welcome

[Music]

[Music]

you know your snitch gives a whole new

meaning to amateur knight and dixie

doesn't surprise me michelle hell so

people learn to be patient

you know trainer if hope were money you

could retire them all

i don't get it it doesn't matter

what's so funny seems to have a visitor

maybe she wants to thank some crazed

black man for helping her out in court

yesterday

a gift for me from jack walker

thoughtful of him last night he was

waiting in my apartment i'm not exactly

sure how he got in

he paid my fee and gave me this then he

left

and you don't think that's strange

sorry counselor that calls for

conclusion on my part

they're gonna make this easy are you

okay i find it strange but not illegal

i think he's gonna rape me

why a feeling

did he touch you no did he threaten you

no did he harm you in any way

no then what are you basing this on

if you'd been there you'd understand

that's no reason to arrest him trust me

i know this man

then tell me about him tell me about him

and jessie pink

you know that's confidential and last

night wasn't

last night was different actions leading

to future crimes aren't subject to

attorney-client relationships

based on what you're telling me he's

done nothing wrong

so there's nothing you can do i'm afraid

not

you're really loving this aren't you

not at all miss langford not at all

thank you

he wants attention but if you give him

an ounce you're asking for trouble

i'm afraid it may be too late for that

you better make sure he doesn't so you

get upset

what a coincidence i was just thinking

about you

and here you are well the mushroom salad

jack walker's acting up that's your

department

walker

yeah he's hassling victoria langford

wait a second

yes brady she was his lawyer and now

he's after her

oh that's what they call poetic justice

well he hasn't done anything

yet well then what do you want from me

just keep her company oh i don't know

i think malloy needs me here come on

adam it's awful busy

come on guys she's scared big time

okay but you owe me big time you name it

[Music]

and grady she's really nervous

don't do anything to make it worse

[Music]

yes yeah greedy jameson adam boudreau

semi

you have identification yeah sure

it's a driver's license yeah it's the

only thing i have with my picture on it

where's your badge what badge you're not

a policeman no you got that right

pedro said an amateur

hey if we're gonna have an argument can

we have it inside your apartment

[Music]

okay you're asking for trouble with

these open

i was just getting ready to close those

and that could use a deadbolt they're

coming to install one tomorrow

okay check the bedroom

i've got safety locks on the windows and

there's no other way in

kitchen the same have we ever met

no why because i get the feeling that

i've somehow offended you

boudreaux said he was gonna send help i

thought that meant a professional

yeah well considering the way you

treated him lady you're lucky he's

sending you a warm body

which i imagine is your major

qualification

look he wants me to keep an eye on you

that's what i'm gonna do whether you

like it

or not not

fine i will be outside the front door

just

yell if you have a problem oh

it's nice meeting you too

[Music]

strong and uh very hot

thanks

it's not much by way of

it's a apology

how did you sleep not at all

now we have something in common

about last night i forget it apology

accepted

it's just i'm scared i'm not used to

being scared

nobody is not to mention the fact that

you

probably hate having to depend on

someone

yes and i'm not too thrilled you can see

that

i promise not to tell anyone

want to see you again

depends on what pedro wants

next time you'll sleep on the couch

deal thanks

if you need me i will be at malloy's bar

on third street

get the hell out

right here he was standing right here

what do you think you're doing hi

jack walker i don't think social hour is

over

there's the exit um not until i met my

broker

broker i'm looking at a unit in this

building you are not

moving into this building forgive me i

don't think that's for you to say

pretty let him go no way

he's trying to provoke you it's working

maybe now you'll be leaving

[Music]

you took a shot at me first i

specifically asked you to call me

no time for that fast reflexes

slow brain

you know i barely touched him just

enough to scare him you did

right in the pines office why pine

walker knows you work for me so what

he's claiming you're acting as an agent

of the department

come on you got to be kidding right

i'm afraid not you made me look bad you

made us

all look bad i'm telling you he swung at

me first

after you pushed him no after he pushed

me

after you blocked his path come on b

come on whose side are you on anyway we

have to do this thing by the book

these days more than ever good except

nobody

ever gave me a copy i'll make sure you

get one

all right all right

so i wanted to show off a little bit

what are we gonna do now maybe lankford

can get some kind of restraining order

good in the meantime i'll keep my eye on

her i don't think so

no from a distance i promise

walker sees you anywhere in the vicinity

he slams us in the court

she's gonna do her bee

just a matter of time and then he's

gonna do her

your move

[Applause]

victoria your office said i'd find you

here victoria please i just want to talk

stay away jack would you just hear me

out no

i need your help what you need is a

psychiatrist preferably in prison

i overstep my bounds with that gift all

right

i'm sorry it's more than that and you

know it

i want to sue bedro and the police

department for harassment you want to

sue them

it's the kind of high-profile case you

love you weren't certifiable you'd be

funny that's uncalled for

i'm warning you you don't stay away from

me you're going to get a look at

lawsuits close up and personally

i want to be your client again the only

way i'd have you for a client is if i

worked in a mortuary

you defended me you believed in me i

deserve more than this from you

what's

ah not at the moment any idea when he'll

be arriving

never it's like a summer storm he comes

in out of nowhere

shakes things up a bit moves on sounds

like you know better than he's

comfortable with

not as well as i'd like can i get you

something white wine

you got it the precinct said he was

planning on stopping by here

oh this is business no well yes of

course

it's business well i'm malloy

langford victoria langford

are you the lawyer yes

as boudreau told you he mentioned you

were having a problem

his words no mine

well it's more than a problem well

whatever

so who died and made you a judge

[Music]

you're right it's none of my business

but you can't understand how a woman

would defend a rapist

i said you were right and because i do i

deserve to be attacked is that it

if i were a man it would be different

right yes it would that's crap

i'm entitled to make a living just the

same as any man it's not what i'm saying

oh the hell it isn't look

i sell drinks but if i see someone's

hand too many i won't sell them anymore

even if it's bad for business

not the same thing oh yes it is it's

called being responsible

all right hi victoria

the issue of medicine yep

yes

i need to talk to you i'm all yours

in private

sure

he asked me to be his lawyer again to

sue your department

what's that all about he's playing with

me toy that's what he does

what he did with jesse peck

can you please protect me i talked with

the lieutenant

he can't authorize it what about using

grady

that's too risky now so what are you

telling me that i'm on my own

the way things stand i'm afraid so

no not at all

from the time i came into the station

you've been reveling in it when you

first showed up yeah i flashed on what

goes around comes around

that was then now this is eating me up

just as much as it is you

you're not the one he's after it's true

but my end of the law is supposed to be

there to keep you safe meanwhile you're

in keeps me from doing that

there's no damn thing i can do

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

uh

[Applause]

[Music]

uh

again victoria not

[Applause]

yet

she can't prove it was walker so she

packed and left

where'd she go she wouldn't say

after all this she doesn't trust you why

should she

i couldn't do anything to help her so

walker won

at least he won't get to hurt her but he

won

and he's out there somewhere laughing at

you and laughing at me probably cruising

for his next

victim that's the part that tears me up

langford's safe but there's some other

woman out there that's not well more

than one boudreau more than one

question for you what is a walker wants

most

sex wrong power along with control

why because he's weak and he proves his

strength by dominating women

so if we lose his control he cracks

wide open i don't make that happen

carefully very carefully

[Music]

okay i know you want to see some

performance before you commit so

what i recommend is a test run and say

50 stories and in one week you will see

results won't believe

look at the success we've had in chicago

montreal

i didn't order that i don't mind

that chardonnay is his favorite places

nice meeting you i'm sergeant adam pedro

metropolitan police

the reason i'm here is because i owe

jack an apology

you see i'm the crazy cop that arrested

him

jack what is he talking about what is it

you want boudreaux

what is it i want

jack i want to apologize

for wrongly accusing you of raping that

woman

for making you suffer unreasonably

apology accepted now do you mind leaving

first to toast to jack walker

an innocent man

i have real criminals to catch

nice meeting you

and i'll be seeing you soon jack

[Music]

so

hey somebody i'm trapped in here

come on

[Music]

up to

up to it's harassment

suggesting i'm insincere

high places
