Third Watch (1999–2005): Season 3, Episode 13 - Cold Front - full transcript

Feeling betrayed, Doc angrily confronts his former friend, Jerry Mankowitz, an attorney's investigator who tricked him into confiding vital information about a pending malpractice suit.

Previously on Third Watch:

Shut up. Don't shoot! It's suicide!

Don't shoot him!

Watch out. Give her to me.

Doc...

I told her to take the collar off.

And she wouldn't.

So I took over.

I popped it open, I slid the tube in

and I closed it right back up.

Carlos is home.



So, we'll have to be quiet.

Can you?

I'd expect by this time
tomorrow you're going to have

sole custody of your son.

I'm having trouble sleeping.

How about if I tuck you in?

Excuse me?

-== [ www.OpenSubtitles.com ] ==-

Nice.

Yeah.

You want to shower first?

No, you take it.

Supposed to hit ten below.

Yeah, looks it.



Hey, champ.

Hey, come on.

Let's go.

Daddy, the cold hurts my nose.

Oh, I know. Hurts mine, too.

Come on, let's get you to Grandma's fast.

Daddy's running late.

Mr. Doherty?

Oh, hey, Sister...

Rose.

Sister Rose, yeah, how you doing?

I want to ask about Joseph's coat.

Yeah, actually, uh, this is one of mine.

We couldn't find his this morning.

Ah.

Everybody thought it was cool. Yeah?

It doesn't quite fit, hmm?

Ah, maybe not.

But, uh, well, his will turn up.

It's got to be home someplace.

Or at Mrs. Doherty's?

Ah, no.

Actually, Joey stays with me now.

His, uh, his mom sees him every other...

We'll find his coat, Sister.

Please do, yeah.

I'll you tomorrow, Joseph.

You'll pick him up at rehearsal?

You got it.

Wait, rehearsal?

Uh, for the Easter Pageant.

You read about it in the newsletter.

Oh, yeah, yeah, the pageant.

Right, but Easter's

a couple months away. Six weeks.

We rehearse Tuesdays
and Thursdays, 2:30 to 4:00.

4:00.

Yeah.

Forgive me, my ears are about to fall off.

You stay warm, Joseph.

Come on.

What newsletter?

I don't know.

What's up with this Easter Pageant?

Is this something you want to do?

Heck, yeah.

They got me playing Jesus.

Jesus.

Oh... whew.

Oh, wow.

I can't work in this.

Ugh, I say we take
inside calls only, today.

Yeah.

That, or they can crawl to the bus.

And anyone on the street
who needs help is out of luck.

Extra layers today.

Yeah, preaching to the choir.

Damn it.

Hey, shouldn't you be stocking the bus?

What's that number look like to you?

Is that a four or a nine?

Who's "Timmy"?

It's... that's Tammy.

Tammy, the nurse.

I told you.

Me in the hospital?

Life-altering sex? Life-altering sex?

The silent scream...?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, ye

How could I forget that?

The chick may be an expert in the sack

but she's got no skill with a pen.

I keep getting some pizza place.

Could that eight be a three?

You know, maybe she
gave you a wrong number.

Why would she do that?

Oh, come on.

Oh, no, no, not a chance.

Trust me.

I left that girl wanting more.

Yeah, no doubt.

Oh, by the way, did I tell
you who I saw that night?

What night?

In the hospital.

Jerry Mankowitz.

Oh, yeah? Yeah, he was visiting

that kid in the halo, the recovering quad.

In fact, if, uh, I hadn't seen him

Nurse Tammy and I

might not have hooked up.

Wait a minute.

Jerry and Ryan Buckley?

Uh, is that the kid's name?

What was... what was he doing there?

I don't know.

The whole night was kind of a blur.

I mean, you know, she would...

Uh, hello, yes.

Is this Tammy?

Damn it.

Hey, did you... did you talk to Jerry?

I didn't get a chance.

We are talking about
the hottest nurse on staff.

Do you not

get that?

Ten after, Jimmy.

Sorry, Lou, I got held up.

Again?

Hey, Joey okay?

Oh, yeah, he's perfect.

Just dropped him off at your mom's.

Good.

You know, Jimmy, I sympathize with you

but you're not the only guy with a kid.

How often does Kim get him?

Uh, visits every other day.

Bedtimes are all mine

along with breakfast, getting
him to school, picking him up

a little supper, bath, homework...

Talk to Kim, have her pitch in more.

Oh, yeah, right.

I just took custody from the woman, Joe.

I can't be asking her for help already.

You took your kid from his own mom?

I'm just saying, a mother
losing custody is... pretty rough.

Mind your business.

How's Kim doing, anyway?

She's been, uh...

she's been pretty good, surprisingly.

I want to rip his heart
out. You'd never know

by the way you talk to
him. What else can I do?

He's the one holding all the cards.

For now, at least.

So you are appealing.

Oh, sure. As soon as I win the lottery.

Whoa.

What the hell...?

Just stay in the car, okay?

Help's coming.

Billy, call Con-Ed. Wellsbach, too.

Hi, sir.

How you doing?

Good.

All right, I want you to keep still, okay?

Especially your head.

How you doing, Alex?

So much for indoor calls only, huh?

Tell me about it.

All right, yeah, keep that head still.

Good, good.

A few of them said

they heard, like, this clangy noise

and then it just came down.

Defect in the metal.

Cold contracts it and makes it brittle.

Gas is on the right, pal.

Bosco.

You call for a tow truck, yet?

You asking me to?

I'm just asking you if you did.

No.

But I will.

What's up with him?

Oh, he's just had a rough few weeks.

Take a number.

What's with the big secret anyway?

It's not like you and Taylor were the first

people on the job to be dating each other.

Hey, that's how she wants it. She's weird.

Well, how's it going?

It's, uh...

you know, it's going.

Going, like, going, going, gone, already?

Nah, nah, I'm not
saying it's over, you know.

It's... it's okay.

I mean, the sex is...

down right freaky.

That, for the record, I didn't ask.

I don't know what it is.

I guess we just, don't
have a whole lot in common.

I thought we did.

Both losing our dads, you know.

Pretty much talked them
both to death all over again.

Ah.

But past that, we just

don't have much to say to each other.

I just can't get over it.

Taylor.

Yup.

If old man Angus was still alive...

What, her dad? What about him?

Ah, well, you know

he was just kind of old school.

Old school what?

He was a great guy, and more open-minded

than most of his contemporaries.

I'm just saying, with
his own daughter, he...

His own daughter? He'd
have a problem with it?

No, I'm not saying he'd
have a problem with it, I...

Do you have a problem with it?

Come on.

You're mind went there. Yeah, Davis

I got a big problem with it.

I don't know how I'm going to be able

to sleep at night

thinking about big, black you

with that sweet, little white girl.

Look, I'm just saying

why does it even have to come into it?

Like it doesn't come into it for you?

Did you tell your mother who you're dating?

I don't, what...

I don't tell talk to my mom
about the people I date.

Oh, but I say two words,
and you climb down my throat.

You think he really wouldn't
be happy about it, huh?

Look, I don't want to
speak for the dead, all right?

I'm just saying...

He was a man of his time, okay?

A man of his time.

A working class, white

man of his time... draw
your own conclusions.

55-Charlie, respond to a domestic

109 East 93, apartment 3-J.

Yeah, it has been a long time, Kathy.

I'll come by soon, I promise.

I don't know her last name.

Uh, Nurse Tammy.

She works at your hospital, fifth floor.

No, I have Jerry's cell number.

I need to see him in person.

Any idea where I can find him?

No, I-I-I don't want you
to connect me to her floor.

Just confirm a number that she gave me...

Her home number: 2-1-2...

He's working for a lawyer now?

Really?

Personal injury attorney.

I'm not asking you to
give out her number, lady.

Just confirm the one that she gave me.

Yeah, yeah, I'd love the address.

Did I say that slowly enough?

Okay, all right.

Yeah, thanks, Kathy.

Hello? All right.

Hello? You, too.

Damn it.

Can you believe that?

No.

No, I can't.

Whoo, ah! It just goes right to your bones.

Whoo.

How's your mom doing?

Not bad.

Gets out of the hospital tomorrow

take her back to the home.

Tatiana's okay with that?

Not at all.

Feels guilty as hell, no matter what I say.

What do you say?

Not much.

I feel like crap, too.

Oh, my goodness.

Oh, God...

Whoo! That is painful. Mm!

Is that thing working?

I don't think so.

There's no lights in here.

There's no heat either.

It's as cold in here as it is out there.

It is.

Hey...

Davis.

Hello?

Police.

Damn it.

Damn!

Hello? Police.

Up here.

Please, you have to get in there.

What happened to the power, ma'am?

Talk to the landlord.

Poor thing, she don't stop

to take a breath all afternoon, now.

We got a call for a domestic disturbance.

Yeah, and if I call in,
said a baby was crying

how fast you come?

Are you a friend, or...?

Just a neighbor.

Police!

I've been doing that. She don't answer.

What's the mother's name?

The grandmother, Mrs. Alvarez.

Mrs. Alvarez, it's the police.

She could be dead in there, for all I know.

Mrs. Alvarez?

It's all right, Danielle,
baby, we're coming.

Is there a fire escape?

Yeah, through there.

All right, I'm going to see what I can do.

Okay.

Her feet are like ice, man.

Mrs. Alvarez?

I didn't see her.

Come here, baby, come here. Oh, oh.

It's okay, sweetie.

It's okay. You all right?

Nothing, right?

Yeah. Here, cover her with that.

No sign of a struggle.

And no grandma.

This is 55-Charlie to Central.

We need a bus at this location

forthwith.

I mean, you know

granted, it's no great romance.

Chick catches her boyfriend messing around

needs a little revenge sex

and there's me, happy to help out.

But why'd she then go to the trouble

to write down the wrong
phone number afterwards?

It defies logic, you know?

Makes no sense.

You stay right here.

Jerry works at a pizza place?

Any major calls, I'll be right out.

You going to tell me what's going on?

Makes no sense at all.

Hey, Jerry, how you doing?

Doc.

You working for a lawyer now, huh?

Hmm? I guess you forgot to mention that

when I saw you last time.

Ryan Buckley's lawyer?

Hey, Doc, look, I was going...

Son of a bitch! You lied
to me right to my face!

Get off of me!

What's the matter with you?!

Why, Jerry?

Why would you do this?

It's just a job, okay?

And it's a job I need.

You'll see someday.

That pension doesn't go as
far as you think it's going to.

You set me up, man.

Jerry, you set me up.

I needed your side of what happened, okay?

I need to know all sides.

These lawyers pay me
for what I got up here.

They got me using what I know to...

To screw your friends.

That's what you're doing.

You're screwing your friends.

Look, I'm cold; are you cold?

If you think I set out
to hurt you, you're nuts.

All I do there is assess cases.

I review statements, I
make recommendations.

I help separate the real
claims from the frivolous ones.

Mmm. Real noble.

Yeah, it is.

I've cleared a few guys

and when I saw your name
come up on their "to do" list

I grabbed it.

I figured if I could help you out, I would.

So, you're helping me, now.

You sure you don't want one?

The claim against me...

Where does it stand?

There is no claim yet.

They're still going over a few things.

You screwed up.

On video, no less.

You've seen it?

Once the collar's on, it stays on...

That's first day stuff.

I know, I know.

On tape, Doc.

What can I do?

I don't know.

Hi, guys.

I didn't hear a call come in.

I got hungry.

Can I get a slice?

Carlos, we're, uh...

Long time. Carlos Nieto.

You grabbed my ass.

Carlos...

First day on the job

you grabbed my ass, pretending you were...

Pretending?

This guy, huh?

Yeah, he's a regular riot.

Come on, let's go.

Hey, Doc...

I'm surprised you remember.

My first day was your last.

That's the night

you got, uh...

Oh... sorry.

Didn't-Didn't mean to bring that up.

That's, uh...

Anyway, you look, uh, you look good.

Good thing Doc was there for you

'cause I was a mess.

What, did you set this up?

Huh?

Oh...

uh, nice place.

What did I say?

This isn't supposed to happen anymore.

Tenants have got rights.

Landlords can't just go around
turning people's utilities off.

Yeah, well, him do it.

Him want us out

so he can build condominiums.

Double the rent, fire the super.

All we can do is not pay him.

Ugh, it's like an icebox in here.

That would be the problem.

Hey, honey, come here.

Hey... oh, she's freezing.

Yup.

I'm going to warm you up, okay?

Let's cover you up here.

Come here.

Ooh.

That's frostbite.

Oh, my God.

We need warm blankets.

There's no heat, there's no gas, nothing.

In February?

Pulse, 130, resp's 28.

You know, it's not like
her to leave her like this.

She's a very nice lady.

You have no idea where
the grandmother might be?

Where are the mother and father?

The father's in jail
for killing the mother.

Mrs. Alvarez' daughter.

Danielle's all she have left now.

This keeps getting better, doesn't it?

I can go now?

Yeah, let me just get your information.

Wait a second.

Is there a laundry room?

Yeah, in the basement

but nothing don't work down there

for months now.

I'm going to go check it out.

All right.

Mrs. Alvarez?

Mrs. Alvarez?

Damn it.

Oh, my God.

Davis.

Davis, I've found her.

She took a breath, I saw it.

Think I found the problem.

Oh...

Squad's on the way, Kim.

We got to get her to a hospital and...

I've got

a sporadic beat.

No, no, no, Sully, no!

Don't do that! Why? We got to get her out!

But not like that!

Then how?!

I don't know

but it's got to be slow.

There's a method to it.

But if you break the ice
too close, she breaks with it.

Something like that.

You're not dead until you're warm and dead.

Which means what, exactly?

Well, if she's frozen,
she's not quite dead.

She's just...

stopped.

So what the hell do we do?

Son of a bitch!

Hey! Hey, why don't you
try your blinker next time?!

Look, Doc, slow down.

Look, if I said something
to Jerry I shouldn't have

I'm sorry.

You know, have you...
do you ever, ever consider

that maybe not everything is about you?

Well, yeah, I mean...

What, it's not?

The whole wide world

revolving around poor, little Carlos

and all his big problems.

I never said that.

Some little bimbo, one-night stand

gives you a wrong number...

Is that what keeps you awake at nights?

Hey, back off, all right?

Hello?

Doc...

Son of a bitch!

Hold on.

You just cut me off!

What?! Hey!

Get out the cab, then!

Why don't you do that?!

Yeah, you son of a bitch!

Better get out of there! Whoa!

Hey! Stop beeping, I'll get out the road

when I'm ready! Doc...

Doc! What?

It's Taylor. Sounds important.

Yeah?

Fire's pulling up now, Doc.

We got the girl stabilized, but, uh...

this grandmother?

It's a whole other story.

100 below out there

and these damn, snooty hotel bars

can't even serve a guy
a decent Irish coffee!

You should write a letter next time.

Ah...

Ow. Ow!

Step in.

Make me.

Well...

Oh, is that how it is?

Get the broad to fight
your battles for ya there

Officer... Boscorelli?

Guinea boy.

It figures.

Go sleep it off, old man.

Old man?

I'll kick your Italian ass, boy!

Hey, you okay?

Yeah. Why?

Why?

That.

He's a drunk. So what?

Look at me.

You're not yourself.

Yeah? Who am I?

Huh?

Oh, come on, give me a break.

Let's get this over with.

Any vitals at all?

How many bags of saline we got on board?

I don't know, a dozen.

Okay, give me the address where you're at.

Give them about five
minutes, and then bring them in.

You all right?

Doc, I can't leave here without Kim.

She'll be right out.

Boiler room, Doc.

Downstairs on the right.

You won't believe it.

Watch your step, Doc.

Yeah.

We were hoping

maybe you had dealt with
something like this before.

Something like it, but not quite.

MICU's prepping a room.

Any support we need, they're standing by.

Good.

What are her vitals?

I got a couple heartbeats before

but there's no place I can get a pulse.

We need to expose her neck.

You got to get going.

Taylor's waiting on you.

Oh, okay.

Well...

good luck.

She was still breathing

when I found her, Doc.

Breathing?

Yep.

How long?

I'd say 15 minutes.

Took two short, quick
breaths, like she was gasping.

Any idea how long she's been down here?

Ah, well, I don't know.

Davis, how long they'd say

the granddaughter was up there crying

before we got here?

Neighbor said all afternoon, right?

Four or five hours?

We're going to chisel

around her, Doc...

Pull her and the ice out together.

All right, but we-we
got to be careful, okay?

The blood in her extremities
is frozen right now.

Anything we move can shatter like glass

so let's just take it slow.

It's not easy heating up bags of saline

when it's 20 below outside.

Watch your footing, Nieto.

Oh, son of a bitch!

Ow! DAVIS: You all right?

No, I hit my... tailbone.

Somebody could have warned me.

Somebody could have listened.

What a day I'm having.

What is this, ice?

Oh, man!

Is she, uh...?

Get the saline.

Okay, warm enough.

Let's get to work.

Yeah, pull back

pull back.

Do you have any dry blankets?

Keep them close but not too close.

Make sure they're off
the surface of the ice.

Here you go, Doc.

We've got warm saline
going directly to the jugular

through two large bores.

Prep another bag.

Okay!

Get a screwdriver down there, all right?

There's the tach unit.

Coming through, other side.

That should help.

All right, here comes your heat.

Easy, easy.

Nothing.

No pulse.

Her skin is getting back some elasticity.

Let's get some more saline.

We're ready here, Doc.

All right.

Yeah.

Hold those.

On my count.

One... two...

three, lift.

Careful, watch your hand, watch your hand.

Got it? You got it?

Yeah.

You good from there?

Yeah. You got it under?

That's good.

Is that coming through?

All right, pull her.

Lombardo, pull that.

Yeah. I got it.

Okay?

One... two... three.

- Blocking her right here.
- Watch your hands there.

I got it! Easy.

Okay, easy, pull it over.

Watch out, watch out.

We're right here, we're right here.

Pull it down, pull it down.

More. Go.

Nice and easy.

Easy. Come on, come on.

Straighten her out, straighten her out.

Slow. Easy.

Lay it down nice.

There you go. Easy, easy.

There she is.

Whew.

Nice work, everybody.

We got a long way to go, Lou.

Let's get those heaters
as close to her as possible.

All right, you heard the man, guys.

Carlos, we got to refill these bags.

Got it.

Look, it's loosening up already.

I think we can start chipping away at this.

From the outside in, okay?

Remember, and no skin.

Little pieces at a time,
like you're an ice sculptor.

Doc... there's another one.

Three sporadic beats in the last minute.

All right, good. Good,
let's get her intubated.

All right. I'll start CPR?

Yeah, but remember...

I know, I know...

Nice and easy.

Okay. We'll have the paddles
by, just in case of V-fib.

Watch this.

Watch your back.

Check it out.

Still nothing?

Pulse is 50.

What?

Heart rate is slow

but more steady.

You're kidding.

Whoa. That's her.

Oh, my God. There she is.

She's back.

Not yet, not yet.

We still got to get her to the hospital.

Let's bring the board
in. Let's get her on there.

But keep her body straight.

Damn. When's it going to let up?

Let's go!

Watch your back.

Jimmy

I need you to drive.

You got it.

We'll lead you in.

All right.

Pulse is 46.

BP's 60/40.

Temperature's 89.

Temp's 89.

And rising?

Not much.

She's in V-fib.

300.

300. Clear.

Got her.

Sinus rhythm, maybe about 50.

Okay. Lidocaine.

70 in the pipes.

I'll get it. No.

I need you to take your clothes off.

What?

You heard me, take your clothes off

and get under the covers.

A-Are you kidding?

It's Boy Scout first aid.

Shared body heat, skin-to-skin.

Uh, I was never in the Boy Scouts.

Doherty?

I'm driving.

Hey, if don't get

her temperature up

we could lose her, okay?

So just take off

your shirt or something

and get under the covers with her.

Man...

this is...

You know, come on, man.

I am not asking you.

Freezing in here.

Then get under

the covers.

Okay.

Oh, man, she's like ice.

Well, that's the point.

I swear, if either of you
tell anybody about this...

Oh, are you kidding me?

When that lady pulls
through, she's got to know.

God, what I wouldn't do
for a camera right now.

Oh, man.

But I know we referred
him to Psych Services

after that thing with Hobart.

Yeah.

That's like expecting
that he'd actually go.

It's like this 9-11 counseling...

He's just skipping right over that.

And you think he needs it.

Yeah, it's like he's dead inside.

It's like he's just going
through the motions.

Any chance of him
hurting himself, or others?

No.

No.

You know I have to ask.

I know that, and that's
not what I'm saying.

I'm saying that I think

he just needs somebody to talk to.

Okay. I'll see that he goes then.

That'd be good.

And we never talked.

Even better.

Thanks, Lieu.

Her temperature's up: 95.8.

How's her heart?

No further arrhythmias

but, you know, she'd be a medical marvel

if there weren't some damage.

We'll know more in a few days.

Overall, besides the frostbite,
she's doing remarkably well.

Unbelievable.

No, no, just good medicine.

Well executed.

Hey, guys.

Hey. Hey.

Someone wants to see her grandma.

There's our girl.

Yeah. Hey, see?

There's your grandma.

And all those people?

They're helping her get better.

She's going to be good as new.

Okay?

Chalk up another one.

Yeah, way to go, man. Seriously.

I'm telling you, Doc,
you outdid yourself...

Come on, guys, just do me a favor, okay?

What?

Nothing.

Uh, tell Carlos I'll be right back.

All right.

Doc, good job today, man.

Yeah, nice going.

Kim, got a minute?

Yeah.

All right, I'll see you later, sweetie.

Okay?

Let's go back to your room.

What?

What?

Nothing.

Did you see where Kim went?

Great.

You think she knows I know?

I know she knows you know.

So, you knew about this Easter thing?

Yeah. It was in the newsletter.

Right.

Well, you know, rehearsals go until 4:00.

So I was thinking maybe since
you're off tomorrow anyway

you can, uh...

You checked my schedule?

I hope you don't mind. It's just, I...

No. I mean, not with this.

I'll get him.

If you want You will?

I can move around my Tuesdays and Thursdays

a lot easier than you can right now, so...

Yeah, that-that... that
would be a real big help.

Only if it's cool with you.

No. Yeah, it's very cool.

I hope I'm not laying too much on you.

What do you mean?

Ah...

You're doing a great job, Jimmy.

You think so?

I wouldn't say it otherwise.

I hate to admit, but
you've really surprised me.

I mean, the way you've juggled
Joey's schedule and yours

and the fact that you've
even considered mine

you know, it's...

You're really coming through.

Thanks.

Let's get back to the house, Jimmy.

Yeah, on my way, Lieu.

Sorry, I didn't mean to...

No, that's all right. I-I got to run.

So, we're cool?

You pick up Joey tomorrow?

Yeah. Every Tuesday and Thursday.

Thanks, Kim.

No problem.

What?

So much for ripping his heart out.

Look, I'll take what I can get.

And without an appeal

I got to make it work for me somehow.

That seemed to work.

It did, didn't it?

Hey. Hi.

Hey, yourself.

Oh, I see. You're just
blowing me off, then.

Blow you off?

Here.

Just tell me one thing.

Is that your correct phone number?

No.

It's 0-1-9-7.

Excuse me?

Is that why you didn't call me?

I did call...

that number and others.

I didn't write this.

What?! You did. I don't write this sloppy.

Neither do I.

You had a concussion.

And I seem to recall
you were a bit distracted.

Now, why are you limping?

Oh, this? It's nothing.

It's, uh...

It's just, you know, another
rescue-related injury.

Hmm... Took a bit of a fall.

On your butt?

Yeah, on my butt.

Shall I have a look?

Um... ooh.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, that would be good.

Follow me.

A long time since you rode in a bus?

Yeah, a long time.

Feels weird.

Good.

So, you feel comfortable just taking off

leaving your partner behind?

I have a radio. We're not that far.

You going to tell me where we're going?

We're here.

The river.

Bad enough you drag me out of bed

on the coldest night of the year.

What's next, cement shoes?

You don't remember this place?

What do you want?

You wouldn't believe how
many compliments I get.

How many people tell me how great I am

what a great job I do.

Best paramedic in the city.

Yeah, yeah, like that nonsense.

Especially after 9/11

you'd think they wouldn't try

to single out just one person.

That's not for me, man.

I'm just doing my job
like it was taught to me.

Hey, whatever you think
I taught you, my friend

you improved upon.

You think so?

Oh, yeah.

Let me tell you, Jerry

much as I'm sick of all that back-patting

I did something tonight that reminds me

why I do this job

why I occasionally love this job.

You should have seen me.

You'd have been proud.

I'm sure that's true.

Mmm.

It's because of what I learned from you.

The way you were treating that girl

that night here on the river.

Why you doing this?

Becky something, wasn't it?

How many years ago was that?

Right about here where we fished her out.

I remember you beating yourself up after

and wondering if-if maybe you hadn't been

in such a hurry to move her...

Hey, hey, I wasn't in any hurry.

Okay. All right.

Then maybe if you'd gone slower

if you'd taken a little more time

then there would have been
less damage to the heart.

Maybe she would have made it.

So, what is this?

The "I don't tell on you,
you don't tell on me"?

Tell what?

What happened at this river dies with me

because there's nothing to tell.

You were only doing your best, right?

Yeah, which isn't enough sometimes.

Monday morning quarterbacks,
they don't know that.

See, they spend hours

picking apart split-second decisions

but you, Jerry

you know what it's like
making tough calls out here

knowing that you have

to live with the outcome, good or bad.

It's the stupid tape.

If they didn't have you on tape, Doc...

It's irrefutable.

Is it?

Look, man...

tonight it...

it really hit me, man.

The idea that...

that this thing could cost me my job.

I mean, losing this, losing...

losing what I do.

All right, let me tell you, it's...

it's not easy.

No, Jerry, no.

I-It's... it's, uh...

it's so much bigger than that for me.

See, you got Kathy

the kids.

But me...

I got this...

and nothing else.

I mean, if I ain't got the job...

I mean, what the hell do I have?

What... what can I do?

Who the hell am I?

Oh, come on, Doc. You
got so much more than that.

No, Jerry, no!

I got nothing! No life!

I know I-I did wrong.

I admit it.

My life's at stake here, Jerry.

No, this thing can't cost me my life.

I don't know.

Jerry, let me give you a lift back.

No, no, no. I-I'll grab a cab.

Jerry...

Just leave me alone, okay?

I'm sorry.

Okay, just let me give
you a lift home, man.

Just let me give you a lift!

Hey, come on, Jerry!

Hey, come on, man!

Jerry! Jerry!
