The Unusuals (2009): Season 1, Episode 9 - The Apology Line - full transcript

The detectives investigate the tape of a confession hot-line and attempt to solve murder of a naked man who was shot while running down the street.

2nd squad.

10-11 in progress
at carmine's on orchard,

Where dispatch had the
worst date of her life

With bonnie denablio's
cousin ricky.

Ricky, wherever you are,
this one's for you.

Did you know it was illegal

To give a monkey's a
cigarette in new jersey?

That's why their monkeys
live longer than ours.

Come out?

Think if he was going to,
He would have by now.

Then there's that.



That's not our guy but should

we...

I-I wouldn't.

Stay down.

The shooter's gone!

What do you think?

Medium caliber handgun,
five shots fired,

One in our Car

One in the wall over here,

and Three on our victim

Okay.

Here's what I think.

A jealous husband come home

Finds the vic in bed with his wife.



She's cheating on him.

Starts chasing him

Ok which means our killer
had to live somewhere nearby

I'll have uniforms comb a 5 block radius

see what we can find.

Poor naked dead guy.

No one should have to go out like that

I' gonna call CSU,
see if we can't get an I.D.

On the naked guy.

I'm going to the bathroom

unburn the image of guy
hairy ass off my brain.

Why would you do that

Hi man

Hey man, this is gonna sound weird,
but do you smell horses?

Yeah, you're right.

That sounds weird.

More like manure smell.

You don't smell that?

No.

No.

You know,
I used to ride in High school

Girl horses, not the stallions.

They freak me out... you know,
the size of them.

You know,
I just have a hard time

Even imagining you on horses

Yeah, there's a lot of
things about me that would

Surprise you.

Beaumont... call
We just got a call....

A B&E on Elderage.
Got it, Sarge

Ok

Walsh

On the phone Eddie

Eddie, uh,
a fax came in for you earlier.

Ha ha. It's...
It's very funny. It...

Everyone should go back to work now.

Alvarez, I need you to
finish those booking sheets.

Sir...
Now, eddie.

Detective.

Counselor.

Are you still dating
davis nixon?

Yeah, why?

No reason.
Just...

Eddie and I had dinner
at two doors last night.

Davis was there.

Oh, yeah.
Hang dinner with his mom.

Casey, he wasn't...
with his mom.

I mean, I'm sure it was just...

Oh, no, it's fine.
It's fine.

Maybe it was his sister.

No, he doesn't have a sister.

Okay, um...

I just...
thought you should know.

2nd squad,
this is dispatch

Reminding you
that the handcuffs

Are for official
police business only.

Mr. Fore, I'm detective beaumont.
This is detective cole.

Someone broke into your
apartment last night?

They stole my apologies.

My apologies.

My tapes.
They stole my tapes.

You mean porn?

Jeremy has a service,
the apology line.

People call in.

Come in, come in.
Uh...

And who are you?

Stephanie taft, the girlfriend.

I put up flyers
around the city.

I-I have an answering machine,
and people call.

Most have been living
with guilt for years.

Last week's tape is missing.

You called the cops because
somebody stole a cassette tape?

You have to understand Detective

The service is very important to jeremy.

It's a way for people
to make amends

For the things they've done
wrong, the damage they've done.

Surely there are things
in your life

You wish
you could apologize for.

H-Hold on a second.

You're saying the people
on these tapes,

They confess to crimes?

Crimes, affairs,
anything they feel guilty about.

Class "a" felony
for a cassette tape?

That must be some apology.

Got an I.D. On our naked
guy... Byron maint.

He lives up on columbus.

You okay?

What? Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, I'm fine.

So, do you want to
go see his place?

Who?

Oh, yeah, sure. Yeah.

Walsh? Yeah, I know
that was you... My desk?

Your desk?
Oh, yeah.

You have to dry-Clean
those things, eddie.

Otherwise, they shrink.

Okay, not funny.

No, it... It is funny,
just not to you.

Hey. You gonna let him
get away with that?

No. You're right.

I'm... I-I should tell
sergeant brown.

Tell sergeant brown?
No. No.

You got to pay walsh back.

No, see, eddie alvarez
doesn't believe

In humiliating people
for sport.

It's not for sport.
It's for respect, eddie.

Practical jokes
are about fitting in.

Listen, people around here

Think you think
you're better than them,

So they prank you
to cut you down to size,

Show you
you're nothing special.

Okay, so, why reciprocate?

To show them
you are one of them,

That you're part of the group.

Hmm.
Listen.

You prank walsh,
really prank him,

You'll get respect, trust me.

you ever sleep
with another man's wife?

What?

Just a question... You know,
the... The naked guy.

I'm just making conversation.

Well, I hooked up with
a baseball groupie once

After an away game.

Charlene... something.

Then, about halfway through,
her boyfriend came home.

So I got to jump out the window

And end up on the roof
in my underwear.

And charlene?

Oh, she finishes
with her boyfriend.

Yeah, it's a heartwarming
story of love and trust.

Well, this is an upscale
address for a naked guy.

Yeah.

His wife inside?

Oh, yeah.

What the hell
is wrong with everybody?

Ma'am.
Hello.

I want the gun.

When you catch him, the man who
killed my husband, I want the gun.

Mrs. Maint, we...

I'm going to melt it down.

I'm gonna make sure no
one ever uses it again.

Mrs. Maint...

When a gun is recovered from
a homicide investigation,

It's marked as evidence.

And after the trial,

A private company,
escorted by police,

Drive it to a facility in
queens where they put it

In an incinerator
and melt it down.

I just don't know what
I'm gonna do without hi

Mom?
Are these the detectives?

Um, I'm gonna...
I'll get going, okay?

I'll call you later.

Okay.

Uh, mrs. Maint,
uh, amanda,

Do you have any idea why byron

Would be on old fulton
road early this morning?

Our family owns a chain
of drugstores.

Byron ran the business
mostly from home.

But last night, he said he had
a business meeting.

You're nudists?

Naturalists.

We believe in total openness.

S-So, uh,
was byron dressed

When he left this morning?

Yes!
We're not freaks!

Amanda, please.

Mom. Give me a moment to
talk to the detectives.

I'll be right up.

You have to excuse her.
She's very upset.

She doesn't share your beliefs.
She's 18.

She wanted to go to school,
be a normal girl.

Byron fought it.

I told him it was just a phase.

Oh, byron.

You want to pull the phone
record for the apology line

While I listen to these tapes?

Explain to me how apologizing
to an answering machine

Makes people feel any better
about what they've done.

Well, have you ever
gone to confession?

When I was 6.

Well, confession is salvation.

It's to be naked
in front of god

And know that no matter what
you've done, he loves you.

Smelling horses everywhere.

Whores?

Not whores, horses.

I don't want to think about
what my life would be like

If I smelled whores everywhere.
Uh-Huh.

Are you listening to me?

Do you know how hard it is to
get clown makeup off a bone saw?

Listen. I, uh...

I'm ready to get the m.R.I.

Detective, what part
of "I can't help you"

Don't you understand?

The new york city
medical examiner's office

Does not have
an m.R.I. Machine.

You know why?

Because if we need to look
inside somebody's head,

We use this.

Okay. Okay.

Look,
give me the m.R.I.,

You never got to talk to me
again.

Great.

Meet me at memorial
hospital at midnight.

Memori hospital.

Midnight.
Don't be late.

Hey.
This is a treat.

I, uh... I didn't think
I was allowed to see you

When you're working.

I ordered some tea.
Do you want something else?

No. Tea's good.
Hmm.

So, how's your mom?
Good.

You know,
my dad retired last year,

And he's...
He's driving her crazy.

Where did you go for dinner?
A place in soho.

Oh, yeah? Which one?
Are you interrogating me?

No, I, uh... I prefer to think
of this as an interview.

Interrogation implies...
torture.

You didn't just invite me to
lunch because you miss me.

And you didn't go to dinner
with your mom last night.

No. I was on a date.

Awesome.
What's her name?

Casey, look.
We never said we were exclusive.

Oh, that's fine.

I just spent all day crouched
over a bloated, naked corpse.

I want to see
how the other half lives.

I've been working a lot.

So was I.
We make time for what matters.

Wait a minute.

What, are you... Are you
actually blaming this on me?

Is that
what you're trying to do?

You're trying to say it's
my fault that you went out

And went on a date
with some blond slut?

How did you know she was...

Cop.

Her name is lisa.
She's a lawyer.

That's wonderful.
She's nice to me.

She doesn't bit my head off every time
I suggest we go to a nice restaurant.

I don't bite your head off.
No, but I can tell the minute we get ere

That you can't wait to leave.

That's because they're all,
you know, pretentious people.

Like me.

I like you, casey.
I really do.

But you've made it very
clear that I embarrass you.

That is not true.

I'm a smart guy.
I work hard. I'm well-Paid.

I give a lot of money
to charity.

So if I want to live
in a nice apartment

And eat at a fancy restaurant,
that's my choice.

I had no idea you were
so unhappy with me.

Will you stop it?

I've been crazy about you
since you were 18.

Now, how do you think
it makes me feel

That I know that you like me
best when I'm not being myself?

You know what?
I'm not hungry.

Uh, what are we doing
in the interview room?

I thought we were gonna
prank walsh.

Have a seat.

Okay.

Let me ask you.

Do you know why walsh is great
at playing practical jokes?

He's a great cop.

I'm a great cop.

You're an efficient cop.

You know what's keeping
you from being great?

You're a terrible liar.

Thank you.

No, eddie.

You don't get it.
All great cops are great liars.

They have to be.

Half the job is getting
people to tell them things

That they don't want to
tell you.

How do we convince them
to do that?

We lie.

We trick. We prank.

That... That's coercion.

Okay.

Eddie...

You know the trick to,
uh... lying?

Selling the lie.

It's the same with a prank.

There comes a moment
in every great prank

When you got to sell it.

A moment's hesitation,
an eye flicker,

And, you know,
if you're gonna prank walsh,

You, my friend,
are gonna have to sell it.

Think you can do that?

Oh, yeah.

Watch and learn.
- Mm

Detective.

Amanda maint's boyfriend, eah?

Yeah... Woody.
Listen, can I talk to you?

You should know I'm not in a
very friendly mood right now

Vis-?-Vis men.

Okay.

Mostly because they're liars,

And they make you feel
bad about yourself

When all you're trying to do is

Be the best person
that you can be.

Is this a bad time?
'Cause I could come back.

No, have a seat.

So, what's going on?

Uh, well, last week, I was
by the house to see amanda,

And her dad was outside
being hassled by this guy.

Looked kind of serious.

Describe him.

Uh, he was maybe 6'2",

Mean.

I mean he looked mean.

And they were arguing.
But I-I couldn't hear.

6'2", look... Looked mean.

That's not... That's not
really a lot to go on.

Well, he had this weird
license plate on his car...

"No you."

"No you."

Except with an "I"
instead of a "y."

N-O-I-O-U?

He must be pretty mad
they spelled "you" wrong.

Uh, do you know
what an I.O.U. Is?

No.

"I owe you."

Not getting it.

All right, never mind.
I'll check this out.

Thanks.
Yeah.

"No I.O.U."

I'm guessing you're
in the loan business?

I've been known
to help a man in need.

Like byron maint?

Byron maint.

Oh, it's this guy.

You had an argument with him in
front of his house last week?

Right.
Yeah?

This is him this morning.
Hey, whoa, no.

I don't know nothing
about that.

He owe you money?
Miss a payment or two?

No, no. We had words 'cause
I wouldn't lend him money.

Why not?
We're in a credit crunch.

In the old days, I'd throw cash
to anyone who asked.

But now, I mean, you just can't
trust people these days.

The truth is, I'm going back to
school to get a nursing degree.

There's no money in money
anymore.

So where were you at
8:00 a.M. This morning?

In class
with 30 other students.

Any idea why byron would
need to borrow money from you

In the first place?

I don't know.
But he was desperate.

And whatever fat man was into,
he needed money fast.

I know it's too late,

But I want to say I'm sorry

I'm sorry I believed you

When you said that woman
was your cousin.

Sarah,
I know it's too late,

But I wanted to say I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I ever loved you.

So many years,
so many mistakes.

How many lies
do you have to tell

Before everything you are
is just a lie?

This boy is officially done
laying low.

I'm back, baby.
No.

No, yes.
And it's gonna be epic.

We are gonna own
this town, brother.

I don't do that anymore, frank.

God has shown a better path for me

Yeah, but you didn't call god,
did you, navan?

You called me.

I'm sorry I said
that I didn't mind...

This isn't a game, frank.

You killed kowalski,

And you put my partner
in the hospital!

You're acting like I'm
the problem here, navan.

Every time I help you out,
do you say, "thank you, frank"?

Can anybody save me,
or do I have to save myself?

Hey.

I pulled the apology line phone
records for that missing week.

The callers are coming in
this afternoon.

These tapes are incredible.

People call this number
and apologize

For all of the terrible things

That they have done
in their lives.

It doesn't work that way,
henry.

You don't just get to say
you're sorry and move on.

That's why we have prisons.

What's up?

So, uh, traffic control
found byron's car.

Had the uniforms search
it... They found this.

Baby laxatives, huh?

Do the maints have a baby?
No.

Byron have a baby
with another woman?

Maybe that's why he needed
money so badly. Maybe.

Why don't you circle back to the
family and see what they say?

Okay.

Amanda, I truly am sorry
for your loss.

I don't want you to think
that my partner and I

Were being insensitive
or judging your father

For the way he chooses...
No, I have a weird family.

Why do you think I fought so
hard to get out, go to school?

Oh, I get it.
Trust me.

Your parents were nudists?

No. No, no, no, no.
They were not.

But...

Um, well, I know what it's like

To be an outsider
in the family, you know?

Yeah.

Listen, we found baby laxatives
in the back of your dad's car.

So?

Did he have a...
another child, maybe?

A baby?

I don't think so.

You don't think so?

He's been acting
really weird lately.

And then last week,
I-I picked up the phone,

And he was on there,
talking to some woman.

What did he say?

He just kept saying,

"What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?"

We're not supposed to be here,
so we have to make this fast.

Strip. Again?
What is it with you?

Nothing metal
goes inside the machine.

That includes watches,
buttons, zippers.

You know, this would be a lot
less awkward if you stripped, too.

When you're done,
lie down on the m.R.I.

I'm just gonna be next door.

Wait, uh, h-Hey.

What?

I don't know. I, uh...

For a guy with so many tattoos,
you really are a big baby.

You know, it's a good thing
all your patients are dead.

What is that supposed to mean?

It means I have a brain tumor,

And I just told you
I was scared,

And you have no people skills.

You're right.
I'm sorry.

Thank you.

You're a big boy.

Very brave.

I'm taking my pants off now.

I don't take my socks off.

So, we have
this case... The apology line?

And it got me thinking about
things that I've done in my life

That I never apologized for.

Yeah, like making me
go to the opera?

Hey, you said you liked that.

No.

I was just trying to have sex
with you.

Well, I was gonna have sex
with you no matter what.

What?

No, I mean like my mom.

I-I ran away
from home once,

And I was gone for six days.

And she must have been
terrified.

And I never said I was sorry.

I don't know.

Don't you have things
you feel guilty about?

I kicked a girl
out of my car once.

It was after a party,

And a girl I had been
dating for a year...

Caught her in the coatroom,
making out with some other guy

So she was giving me a
hard time on the way home,

So I pulled over
and said, "get out."

She cheated on you.
I would have thrown her out.

No, but it was wrong.
It was 2:00 in the morning.

It was...
the middle of nowhere.

I should have took her home,
then broke up with her.

But it felt good.

Here's to things
that make you feel good.

All right.

I'm... I'm a mess.

And I think I'm a little drunk.

Well, that's good.

'Cause I'm a little turned on.

You are?
I am.

So, what happens
if I get really drunk?

I may lose my mind.

Let's go.

Hey, is it supposed to
sound like a bag of rocks

Being thrown down
a flight of stairs?

That's better.
Are you done?

We have to go. Now.

What did you find?

There's a security guard coming.
I can't get caught with you.

Oh, don't worry about it.
I'll just badge him.

I could have my license revoked,
not to mention I'll get fired.

It's all right.
Relax.

Duck.
What?

I just have...
What, are you... Come on.

Go.
Can I just get my pants on, please?

Come on.

What are you doing?!
Let me just put my pants on!

This is ridiculous.

No, no, no!
In here!

What's your problem?

"Stephanie taft."

She called the apology line.

And who are you?

Stephanie taft, the girlfriend.

Hey.

Hey, baby.

Hey, lover.

Geez!

What?

Don't get all bashful
on me now, tiger.

Oh, god.

Get...

Where's beaumont?

You really don't remember?

Well, she must have left
around 1:00,

And that's when you called me.

I have to say,
I was pretty surprised

But tickled.

Wait.
We didn't...

Oh, oh, oh, yes, we did.

You were very gentle.

Oh-Ho-Ho, this is... This is
... This is about the desk.

It's about...
It's about the desk.

Okay, so you're...
You're getting me back.

It's...
It's a prank, right?

Beaumont...
She... She let you in

When I was passed out
or... Or something.

It's okay, jason.
You don't have to pretend.

I-I know that the reason
you've been riding me

All these months
is because deep down...

You've wanted a piece of this.

I'm gonna go...

Into the diner...

make myself
a nice cup of coffee.

And, uh... I suggest,

If you know
what's good for you, eddie,

You'll be gone when I get back.

Okay.

I'm gonna grab a shower first

If you want to scrub my back.

Jason.

Guess not.

Oh, that was friendly.
I mean, I liked it.

Surprising.
So, uh, oddly aggressive.

Rough, even. I mean,
not that I minded.

Hey, don't you want to say
something?

I'm talking a lot.

I have to go.

Shouldn't we, uh...?

No.

Hey.

What about my, uh, m.R.I.?

I mean, uh...
you find anything?

I'll call you.

Can I get you something?

No. Thank you.

We pulled the phone records
for the missed calls

And all the people who called
the apology line last week.

My partner's talking to them
right now.

Your number came up.

That must have been a mistake.

No.

It says here you called
the apology line

From your cellphone last
tuesday just after midnight.

Please don't tell jeremy.

He doesn't listen to the tapes?

He's a few weeks behind.
We get so many calls.

What did you apologize for?

I love jeremy,

But he gets so obsessed
with these tapes.

Sometimes I think he loves
strangers more than he loves me.

Why not talk to him directly?

Jeremy has nothing
but forgiveness

For the people who call that
stupid answering machine.

But he's not so good
with real people.

I thought if I called the line,

He might really listen to me
for once.

But then I got scared,
and I took the tape.

You know,

Some people believe you
have to apologize to god

For the mistakes you've made.

God's not the one we hurt.
It's each other.

Hey.

Mm. Not so loud.

What?
You tie one on last night?

So, listen. I got ahold of
byron maint's credit report.

Mm-Hmm.
The guy was in serious debt.

Turns out the naked guy
had a spending addiction.

Is that a thing?
Apparently.

He was in debtors
anonymous for six months.

His drugstores
were all bankrupt,

And the bank was about to
foreclose on his house.

Hey, jason.

Um, hot water's a little wonky.

You might want to get
the heater checked.

Detective.

Ooh, hot coffee.
See you later, hot stuff.

Don't say a word.

Did he just call you
"hot stuff"?

Walsh.

Yeah.

Uh-Huh.
Okay. Yeah. Thanks.

Wow. Now we know what the
baby laxatives were for.

I'm sorry.

I just cannot get past
the "hot stuff."

All right, shut up.
Listen.

Byron maint tested positive
for cocaine.

Which is cut
with baby laxatives.

How much coke
was in his system?

Oh, it wasn't in his system.
It was all over his body.

The guy was covered in coke.

So now we know how he was
planning to get out of debt.

Byron maint was a drug dealer.

Yeah.

So, how often was your boss,
byron maint, in the store?

He came by every week.
We talked mopeds.

We were both moped enthusiasts.

Nice.

The clerks at the other store

Said that he spent
most of his time here.

Do you know if byron ordered
any merchandise in bulk?

Byron? No, he...
He was a front-Office guy.

We found a box of baby
laxatives the back of his car.

Baby laxatives?

You sound surprised.

No, it's just I fired a
guy a few months back.

I caught him stealing
a case of baby laxatives.

He was double-Ordering,
sneaking the stuff out at night.

Do you have a name
for that guy?

Ralph...

Chapelle.

1013 rivington, number 6.

"6." Okay.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Hey. How did it go
this morning?

Oh, you should have seen
the look on walsh's face.

It was priceless.

All right, hey.

Hey, I hope you thanked
beaumont for letting you in.

Oh, done and done.

Hey, I, uh... I sold it.
I really did. I sold it.

There was even a moment

Where walsh thought
we actually had... sex.

That's awesome.
Yeah. It was crazy.

Nice, buddy.
I'm proud of you.

Yeah, well, uh, thanks, man.

I couldn't have... Couldn't
have done it without you.

Hey, you know,
I talked to walsh earlier.

Yeah? And he said, uh,
straight out, you won.

Yeah?

Yep. Said
he's throwing in the towel.

Wouldn't be surprised if he made
you some kind of peace offering.

But listen.
Walsh is a proud guy.

So if he comes to you,
offers you a truce,

Try be gracious...
Don't rub it in his face.

You got to be a good winner.
Okay.

All right.
All right.

You got me.

Hey.

Hey. Hey.
Where the hell you been?

I had sex with a girl.

What? Who?

The m.E. Last night,
this morning.

What, the chick
with the man hands?

No. God, no.

The little one...
Dr. Crumb... Monica.

Nice. Whoa.

Nice. Tell me you made
her wash her hands first.

Yeah, 'cause I was gonna take
her tongue out of my mouth

To tell her to scrub up.

Ew. It's your body.
Whatever.

Uh, where did you do it,
the morgue?

Supply closet.

Yeah.

You and I have never been in a
relationship at the same time.

It's gonna be... weird.

Yeah, I don't know that
I'd call it a relationship.

What would you call it?

I'll get back to you on that.

All right.

So, davis is dating
another woman.

Oh, yeah?
Yeah.

He says I only like him best
when he's not being himself.

You think I'm a snob?

Well, I think it's hard
to date civilians.

They have jobs.

We are the job.
They don't get that.

Yeah.
I like him. I do.

I just...
The life he wants to lead...

Dinner parties
and real estate... Ugh.

It's so empty to me.

There's nothing wrong
with having money, case.

You know, people just want
to live a comfortable life

And be happy.

Are you happy?

Yeah, I am.
Because I know myself.

I think your problem is,
is that you're still two people.

You're the cop
and the rich girl.

And until you can accept
where you come from

And who you really are,

I think it's gonna be
pretty hard to be happy.

At least I didn't sleep
with alvarez.

Hey, come on.

Ralph chapelle.
Number 6.

Ralph?

Hi.

Uh, is this 6?

Across the hall.
This is 9.

Uh, should we maybe...

Yeah, that's a lot
of paperwork.

Have a good night.

Mrchapelle,
it's the police. Open up.

Shots fired!
1013 rivington! Number 6

Go, go, go, go!

Do you know who this is?

Yeah, it's the bad guy.

It's ralph chapelle...

The boyfriend of the
naked guy's daughter?

Please don't tell amanda.

You know, looking around,
I can kind of guess

How byron maint got
coated in cocaine.

Promise me you're gonna
let me talk to amanda

Before you tell her, all right?

You mean, before we tell her

You murdered her father
and tried to kill two cops?

Yeah, that sounds really bad
when you say it out loud.

I'm gonna make a deal with you.

You tell us the whole story,

And we'll talk to amanda
for you.

Maybe you could get a goodbye
squeeze in a conjugal trailer.

That's an idea.
Okay, listen.

Week after I get booted
for stealing, right?

Mr. Maint from the
drugstore comes to me,

Wants to make me a deal.

He said that he'd front
me some cash for coke

And that he could get me
whatever I need to cut it,

Then we'd split the profits.

Why would he do that?
I don't know.

Something about...
losing his house...

Debts.

He seemed pretty desperate.

Honestly, I don't really listen
to people when they talk.

Yeah.

Uh, this person that you killed,
um, he was naked. Why?

Dude,
he was always naked.

The minute
he came into my house,

He had to take off
his clothes...

Like his religion or something.

I did not want to look at that,
you know?

How... How did you
meet amanda?

I was out one day,
and, uh, I see byron.

He's got this girl with him.

Oh, she's just so beautiful.

The top of my head
just blows right off.

So I figure out where she lives,
and follow her.

And then figure out
where she hangs out,

And, uh, get all dressed up,
and, uh, I meet her.

We started dating.

Then two days ago, she invites
me to meet her folks.

And this morning, her dad
shows up, and he's pissed.

He says no way is his daughter
gonna date a drug dealer.

Like, are you...
That's just crap, man,

Because I'm more than
just a drug dealer!

You know, I read.
I'm a libra.

Look, see? See that?

Sometimes I make stuff
out of wood.

Okay, ralph, look here.
Uh, you pulled the gun.

Dude, the guy took off.
He's naked.

He's running down the street.
What do you want me to do?

You know, all I'm thinking
the whole time is,

"I can't let him tell amanda.

I can't...
I ca

caN't lose amanda."

So, uh, you do realize
that not in a million years

Is she ever gonna
kiss you again.

Yeah.

No, just... You just have
him call me back, please?

Okay, thank you.

Hey, eddie.

Sergeant brown asked me to go
to this v.I.P. Funeral tonight,

Uh, some advisor to the mayor.

I'm not good at those things.

I mean,
is there any way that, uh...

That you can go in my place
and represent the squad?

Really?
Yeah.

Y-Yeah.

I-I would be honored.

Oh, great. Thanks, man.
I really appreciate that.

I'll send you the address.

No, thank you.
I... owe you one.

Not all of us
get to start over, son.

Some of us get dirt
in our stockings.

We live out in the cold.

What?

I'm sorry, frank.

I'm sorry that...

That I got a second chance,
and you didn't.

I'm sorry that I wasn't
strong enough to save you.

Maint family service room 3

Hi, uh, I'm here
for the maint funeral...

Byron maint.

Yes, sir.

Um, as per the family's wishes,

No clothes are allowed
in the reception area.

No... clothes?

No, sir.

So he bought it?

Wals oh, yeah.
Are you kidding me?

A v.I.P. Funeral.
He nearly peed himself.

Thanks for your help, man.

Yeah. A good prank...
is a beautiful thing.

Yeah, it is.

Hey, uh, was that your idea...

Alvarez getting in bed with me?

Nope.
It's all eddie.

That was good.
I'll give him that.

Wonder what eddie's
doing right now.

Thank you, andrew.

Hi.

Hey.

So, um...

I thought about what you said,

And I...
I think you're right.

I think you should
be with lisa.

I broke it off with lisa.

You did? Why?

All she wanted to do was
go to fancy restaurants

And talk about real estate.

We're not normal...
You and me.

You're a rich girl that's trying
to live a blue-Collar life,

And I'm a...

I'm the guy whose father
was a mailman,

Who works on wall street.

I kind of like that about you.

Girls like lisa...
You know,

I never know whether
they like me or my money.

Yeah.
I know how that feels.

But you got to
lower your guard.

You got to let me be me.

That's what walsh says...

that I got to
stop being two people...

The cop and the rich girl.

Yeah, he's a smart man.

Yeah, he is.

So, what do we do now?

I could use some ice cream.

Oh, I love ice cream.

And maybe afterwards,
we can, uh...

Drive around in your car
with the siren on.
