Third Watch (1999–2005): Season 5, Episode 8 - Fury - full transcript

Previously on "Third Watch.."

You'll always have me.
I'll never change, Kylie.

You deserve a real home
and a mom. And me too.

Thank you so much.

Doc has been acting kind of funny lately.

What the hell is wrong with you?

'Somebody has to report him.'

'And if you guys don't
have balls to do it, I will.'

There's other ways to handle this, Eugene.

Screw this. I quit.

He said that you came to his house



and blamed him for Taylor's death.

Well, if he had gone to work that day

Taylor'd be alive.

You raped Sergeant Cruz?

'He's all yours.'

You are gonna pay for this.

You need to take some time.

I don't wanna be treated differently.

'Remember that meth
lab explosion last year?'

'Bosco and Cruz? The
guy who did it is a biker.'

'A Hell's Disciple named Gary
Barnes. They call him Animal'

'on the street.'

'Gary Barnes?'

'Guess whose preliminary
trial starts this afternoon?'



'Your younger sister Leticia.'

'You were present at the scene.
You witnessed her fatal injury?'

She died in my arms.

And you don't feel

'at all responsible for her death?'

Sector Charlie, RMP 9920

with a 1700 meal.

Sergeant Cruz will be in 1059.

Our brand new RMP.

- Bosco, Patrol Post 23.
- You got me off foot?

Meal at 1800 hours.

No, I'll be sergeant's operator, lieu.

Officer Fichter has been
assigned to drive Sergeant Cruz.

'That's it. Dismissed.'

Looks like Cruz is back in the game.

I'm being passed over for a rookie.

Maybe it's your winning personality.

- Coffee? - Oh.

Oh, no. I stay away
from cardiac stimulants.

Excuse me.

Caffeine operates using the same mechanisms

in the brain as amphetamines,
cocaine and heroin.

It can also make people irritable.

Trust me. Kim doesn't need
coffee to make her irritable.

Let's see how much if this new guy is late.

Who are we getting?

"To be determined."

- Probably another newbie.
- Great. Who rides with him?

Me. You get nature girl.

Oh.

Hey, guys.

Hey. You here to scare away the new guy?

No.

I am the new guy.

Hey.

Yeah?

- Are you alright? - Yeah, I'm fine.

What, something else?

No.

I'm just asking how you are.

Actually I'm sick of being asked how I am.

I don't need you to drive
me, I don't need your help.

And I damn sure don't need your sympathy.

Sorry I asked.

And don't forget your memo book.

I'll be coming by to sign it.

Alright, here we go. Round three.

- Can we give it a break? - Come on!

A little multiple choice. Multiple choice!

I got a multiple choice for you.

Did you and Judge Halsted..

A, kiss and say goodnight?

B, have breakfast together?

Or C, none of your damn business?

'Central to 55 Charlie.'

'Respond to an assault in
progress at Cranston Park.'

'...corner of Arthur and King.
Possible weapons involved.'

'Fifty-five Charlie responding.'

Cranston Park.

Move it!

Uh no, Doc. Carlos is running with Levine.

'I'll ride with Carlos.
You ride with Levine.'

But I already assigned everyone.

Adam 553 is my bus.

Come on!

Come on! Come on!

Get him!

Move aside! Move aside!

Move aside!

'Drop the knife!'

Get away from me!

Drop the knife.

Drop the knife and step aside!

This is 55 Charlie, we have an
armed suspect in Cranston Park.

Do not move. Drop the knife!

Drop the knife!

Davis, stay here. I'm gonna follow Cruz.

'This is 55 Charlie.'

'Sergeant's in foot pursuit'

'headed south on 196.'

'Copy that, 55 Charlie.'

No, no. I got him, I got him.

You take the order guy.

Alright, let's roll this guy.

- You got his neck? - Yeah.

Alright.

Alright.

Sixty palp.

- Pulse 120. - He's going into shock.

Start a line, saline, wide
open. I'll put him on oxygen.

BP 104 over 72.

Pulse 110.

Resps 26 a minute.

Oh, man!

Decreased on the left.

Got a tension pneumo.

Sixteen-gauge for needle decompression.

Hold still.

I got it, Bosco. I got it!

'He's under! Stand still!'

I got it.

- You got it? - I got it.

Alright, you guys can turn around now.

Who saw what happened?

Nobody saw anything?

You see how it started?

Yeah.

He touched his box.

He tried to change his station.

We'll get another line started on the bus.

Uh, get his, uh, legs elevated.

- I got this, Doc.
- Nah. Let me check something.

He's got a lung down. I'm gotta dart it.

Doc, they'll do a chest tube in the ER.

Hold on.

Doc, this is my patient.

- Doc. - Levine, give me some tape.

- Doc. - Hold on.

Now he's good to go. Make
sure you keep his legs elevated.

Oh... of course.

We've got one under for attempted murder

possession of a weapon.

ADA Mann is looking for you and Bosco.

She's upstairs.

- Hey. - Hey, what's up, Dianne?

- Got a minute? - Yeah.

Put him in holding.

Have a seat.

- You wanted to see me?
- Yeah, both of you.

Mm.

What's goin' on?

Gary Barnes wants a deal.

Are you telling me you wanna plea-bargain

with the man who killed my sister?

Mm, I didn't say I'm gonna take the deal.

Then what are you saying?

I'd like to hear what he's offering.

Talk to him.

He'll only talk to you.

Fifteen-year-old male, multiple
stab wounds in chest and arm.

Needled for a left pneumo.

BP 106 systolic, pulse 180 and resps 26.

Trauma 1, Kim.

He's got two liters of saline on board.

Okay, on my count.

One, two, three.

Where's Doc?

He's in the bus.

Did you see him out there?

You know, I think he was
just trying to be helpful.

- What's he doing back?
- He said he missed it.

Hell, I'll take that job.

Sitting behind a desk, 9 to 5.

Getting weekends off, no shift
work, no blood. He misses this?

Kim, maybe he doesn't
know how to do anything else.

Well, maybe Eugene was right.

Maybe he needs to take a breather.

Just give him some time.

Alright?

I'll talk to him.

Talk him into retiring.

Why me?

What happened to Letty..

I never meant for her to get hurt.

Oh, so this is "I'm sorry?"

You know what? Drop the act, Barnes.

Jury's not here.

I don't think that haircut

and half a shave's
winning them over anyway.

This doesn't need to be antagonistic.

Now that we're not on the stand?

We all have a job to do.

Mr. Barnes is trying to cooperate.

What do you want?

I can give you Richard Buford.

Pass.

He's runnin' a kilo a
week of black-tar heroin

from South America into New York.

And he's got a Mexican pipeline

hauling a million-and-a-half street value

of Ecstasy every three months.

Yeah? What do you get in exchange?

How much is Buford worth?

Zilch.

The FBI put him on their "Ten Most Wanted."

Then maybe they can help you.

As the victim's family, this becomes...

We don't need this piece
of crap to help us get Buford!

Then how come he's still out there?

Because I focused on you first.

Well..

Well, lawyers say if I bitch up

this'll reduce to an eight-ball.

That's pretty smart.

Eight years for killing a cop's sister.

Cruz!

- Cruz! - Bitch!

Did you promise this guy eight years?

I'm Michael Kirby, I'm with the...

FBI, I'm real familiar from with the MO.

Did you offer him eight
years for giving up?

- No. - 'At gate.'

Well, then why is he here?

You of all people should know
about the bureau's interests...

I don't give a damn about
the bureau's interest anymore.

Look, I read about what
happened to that meth house.

Exactly. You read about it.

Animal's still gonna do time.

But Buford..

If we get both of them?

Buford's expanded his drug
empire across state lines.

All the way up to Canada.

That makes him eligible to
be tried under RICO laws.

That buys mandatory life.

If we can get him.

You guys haven't so far.

Well, maybe if you had
followed bureau rules.

Bureau rules?

I'm what's left of the victim's family.

As far as I'm concerned,
there are no deals.

So, you-you really missed 15-year-olds

killing each other over a radio station?

Sitting behind a desk eight hours a day

watching grass grow.

Yeah, but sometimes
this stuff can get to you too.

Sometimes you need a break from it.

I've been on a break.

Hey, I'm happy to have you back on the job

but somebody should have probably told Kim.

Kim? This is about Kim?

She didn't know you were coming back.

- No one did. - So?

I'm just sayin' that, maybe
you should think about

easing back in your supervisory role.

You know what? Maybe
Kim should be less concerned

about promotions and more worried

about her-her medical training.

- No, I'm not... - No, no.

If she's got something to say

she should say it to my face.

- I'm looking for Carlos Neito.
- Yeah. He's right there.

Okay.

Who's that?

It's the woman who adopted my daughter.

Mrs. Kenny, what's wrong?

I, uh, came by to..

It's Kylie.

She's very sick.

It's hard to pass up a shot at Buford.

Drop it.

He's the one behind

the whole drug operation.

It's his car that killed
Taylor and Johnson.

He's the one supplying Animal.

He's a real bad guy.

They don't need your consent
to cut a deal with Barnes.

What? You want Animal to get off?

If the feds make a deal with him without us

we're gonna be cut
out of the investigation.

I don't care anymore.

You started this whole thing.
Now you just gonna walk away?

Three months ago, you
were banging down doors

squeezing witnesses, threatening dealers.

To hell with warrants and protocol.

Yeah, that was three months ago.

Yeah, what's different, hm?

Everything.

Why didn't just you tell me
you were working with the FBI?

We're gonna do this now?

Why? Why didn't you tell me?

Because you didn't need to know.

Oh.

Well, it would have kept us from ending up

in a room pointing guns at each other.

Yeah? Well, trusting me would have too.

'If you had just followed orders'

we would already have Buford by now.

But no. I gotta stay back in a room

with that bastard and listen to deals?

No.

I'll pass.

If you leave this alone now

you know the feds will
make the deal anyway.

You started this, you oughta finish it.

It is finished.

Yeah. But somewhere out there

right now, someone else's
sister or brother's thinking

about trying Buford's
dope for the first time.

'Kylie has idiopathic aplastic anemia.'

'Her blood cells are almost all damaged'

or present in abnormally small number.

And because of this, normal functions

of the immune response...

I'm familiar with the disease.

How bad is she?

It's advanced.

Eighty percent of
untreated children will die

from infection or bleeding

including pancytopenic complication...

You know what? I don't need
you to tell me how she can die.

I want you to tell me
how we're gonna save her.

Her best bet is a bone-marrow transplant.

From a biological donor.

I'll do it. I'll do anything.

Well, we can harvest
some of your bone marrow

and test it to see if it's a match.

If I'm not?

If we don't get a match

from a family member,
then she'll have to go

into a national pool for a donor.

Uh, there's about four million
samples on the database.

But even then the
chances of finding a match

are only about 30 percent.

But the possibility with a family member

brings that chance of a
match up to about 80 percent.

So, if there's anyone
else in your family...

Or in the mother's side?

Her mother..

Her biological mother is dead.

She has a sister in this city.

We need to get in touch with her.

So, after all this..

Come here.

What happens if we
don't find a match for Kylie?

Then.. then her prognosis is
only about six to eight months.

He gives you Buford in
exchange for 12 years.

Eligible for parole in eight.

No way parole in eight.

Sergeant Cruz, I handle the negotiation.

And if the information doesn't pan out

the deal is voided.

Because Animal here might be lying.

He pleads guilty to reckless
endangerment, he gets 15 years.

Eligible for parole in 12.

Done.

So..

Where do we find Buford?

He never stays in the same place

for more than two or three weeks at a time.

Right now..

He's staying at..

394, Avenue C.

'Apartment 1-G.'

The name on the bell is Cumberland.

What does he look like?

He's about average height.

Dark brown hair.

He has a scar

runs up to right side of his face.

You don't know what he looks like?

We'll need a SWAT team.

Whoa, G-man! One step at a time.

Alright? We need to sit on the place first.

Yeah, we need to run
the address through VCI

and NYSPIN, make sure
the address actually exists.

Yeah. So we don't walk into a set up.

Why would Animal set us up

when he would ruin the deal he just made?

You're looking for logic from these guys?

You know what? Why
don't you go take a break

and I'll finish filling this up.

Okay.

Go get yourself some foul-tasting

free-radical-killing
green tea or whatever it is

that you drink.

You should really think about
cutting back on the caffeine.

I'm gonna take a break.

What's with the brass?

Stabbed victim you brought earlier?

There was a TV crew here
covering it after you left.

Hi. You were at the basketball
court stabbing this afternoon?

Yes, sir.

- Nice job. - Oh, thank you.

- Zambrano, right? - Yes.

Supervisor at the 55?

Well, I was until you guys
sent Doc back to take over.

Parker? He's not a supervisor.

Well, no one told him that when he asked

to be put back in field.

Asked?

He was demoted.

You know, you never
answered me about Halsted.

We had coffee.

Just coffee?

What is wrong with you?

You gonna call her?

- Probably. - Yeah?

She's my friend, Davis.

Oh, she's your friend?

She's pretty.

She's smart, she likes you.

- What's the problem? - Oh, no problem.

Well, beautiful woman like
that, and you want to be her friend

I say there's a problem.

You know, if you spend half as much energy

on studying as you do worrying

about my personal
life, you'd ace this thing.

Can we have one meal

where I actually get to eat some chips?

Where are you going?

Um, I need to take a personal-leave day.

What?

My... uh, Kylie's sick.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I hope it's not too serious.

Duggan's gonna fill in for
me. He'll drive with Doc.

No. I want Doc riding with me today.

'Oh, real inconspicuous.'

'Car has FBI written all over it.'

You got to be kidding me.

Pull right up next to him.

Don't you think you guys
might attract a little attention

parking this boat next to a fire hydrant

in this neighborhood?

Park up the block. We'll
be across the street.

These guys know dick
about street investigation.

I'll scope it up.

I'll see if the mailman'll
give us anything.

Hey, you got the name on 1-G?

- I can't do that. - Come on.

Let me see the mail for that address.

I know that's not allowed.

- 'What did this guy do?'
- 'Killed a mailman.'

'I'm just saying..
People's mails. It's private.'

'I'm not asking to read the guy's mail.'

'I just want to see what the label says.'

This is Buford, coming up on the right.

Call for backup.

John Cumberland.

Cumberland? Anything on Buford?

'Alright, thanks.'

- That was him. - No, it wasn't.

- We're going in. - You guys, it's not him.

'I'm telling you.'

Would you listen to me, it is not him.

He didn't have a scar.

- You weren't looking. - Slow down.

Slow down.

Let's just back outta here, okay?

Look out.

The guy didn't have scar.

Cameron Jones.

Four priors, all for drug possession

selling and distributing.

Spent ten years in the can.

Last arrest was April.

Made bail with waiting trial.

This guy still might be
able to help us get to Buford.

If he makes it.

I don't know, it's gonna
have give us a plan B.

Yeah, let's go talk to the son of a bitch.

Have you ever been diagnosed with cancer?

No, no.

Any history of cancer in your family?

- Ah. - Mother side?

Father side?

I don't know.

How about siblings or extended family?

Aunts, uncles?

I grew up in Foster Care.

I don't know who my family is.

Alright.

Barnes, 3-4-9-0-3-2-7-3-7.

Give me prisoner Barnes.

Copy that.

What the hell's going on?

We got a situation in the yard.

We need lock-down. Lock-down, now.

What's going on?

Oh, no.

Hey.

Hey.

I got Dr. Hamil put a rush on, uh..

The cross match to see
if I'm compatible to Kiely.

Okay.

You alright?

Yeah.

It's funny, you know.

You adopt.

You give your child everything.

You start to feel like, she's..

Really yours.

And..

And then..

This happens.

So, what's the real reason you came back?

That's direct.

When have I ever not been?

Well, the brass wanted to do
whatever was gonna make me happy

so, here I am.

You catch any heat with
that thing with Eugene?

Ah, Eugene.

Listen, Carlos spoke to
me how you feelin', Kimmy.

And, I don't wanna step on
your toes or anything like that.

I mean, that kid yesterday

I saw something I could
do to make things better.

So I did it. That's why I got promoted.

But it's also wise sometimes
to piss people off, I guess.

I ran into Chief Rogers
at Mercy last night.

He told me you were demoted.

Why are you lying to all of us?

- Is he gonna make it? - Probably.

You get anything from him?

Nothing.

Doctor says you might
not make it out of surgery.

Even if you do, you're lookin'
at time that'll keep you away

until you're too old to care
whether they get out or not.

That's on top of your
trial for drug possession.

Why don't you tell us where Buford is

and maybe we can talk to DA for you.

Animal was shanked in the joint.

Cut him from ear to ear.

Now whether you tell us or not

that is gonna be our story.

So how long you think
you're gonna last inside, now?

You have a wife and kid in Brooklyn.

So if we get word out
of you right it on Buford

I wonder what will happen to them.

Screw you.

You give us Buford.

We'll take care of you and your family.

He's staying at a safe house, tonight.

One of his..

Crew owns it.

1245, 89 street.

Woodside.

Hey, where are you going?

Goin' to move in his house.

You come as long as
you don't get in the way.

As long as we don't get in the way?

Look.

Nice work on your part,
but it's a bureau case

We're gonna pull out Swats,
snipers, emergency service...

What about this guy's family?

What about 'em?

Are they going to get my kid?

We're going to pick them up.

I'll testify.

I'll write the statement.

I'll give you whatever you want.

Just tell us where your family is.

'Just a minute.'

Go, go!

'Hi, how're you doin'?'

I'm Officer Bosco.

This is Sergeant Cruz, NYPD.

We need you to come with us.

Uh, look it's, it's not a good time.

'Go.'

Your husband asked us to come and get you.

Um, that's alright.

Go! Go! Go!

We need you to put you
in protective custody okay.

So, why don't we get some clothes together.

'The house is empty.'

Hey!

Oh.

Hello.

Bosco!

10-13, 10-13, officers,
need assistance, shot fired.

10-13, 10-13, officers need
assistance, shot fired. 10-13.

'Copy that, Charlie. Help's on the way'

55 sergeant, 10-13.

'Shot fired.'

'Shot fired. 10-13.'

It's Boscorelli and Cruz.

You see anything.

Alright. I'm going.

Give me two.

Yeah.

- Ready. - Go! Go!

Go!

- You okay? - Yeah, you?

You okay?

He said he would kill my baby.

'Oh, my God. They are here.'

'Look, they left some bags here.'

- Who is it? - It's Rick Buford.

Front door.

Go upstairs.

Come on, upstairs.

'55..'

'We are inside the house,
southwest corner 1472'

armed inside the house.

Check him out.

We gotta move.

Oh, my God.

Hold on.

What are you... Doc!

Ah! Uh!

Are you out of your mind!

Grab the backboard.

What?

Jesus.

- Let's go. - I'll cover you.

No, I'll cover you, you guys go.

Let's go.

Come on. Take the baby and go.

He's got a fractured
pelvis. Feels crepitus.

- 'Left femur fracture.' - 'Resp 28.'

- 'Right femur fracture.'
- 'He's coming around.'

Sulli, on the roof.

Where's Bosco?

- Upstairs. - How many inside?

Two.

Sull... there's two inside.

Okay.

- Let's go get the doors.
- One, two, three.

Alright. You got it?

- 'Gonna need O2.' - Yeah and a lycin.

You ride, alright. I'm gonna drive.

This isn't over, doc.

Levine, you stay here.
We're going to Mercy.

- Davis. - What?

- You gotta take the baby. - What?

You're gonna have to take the baby.

I..

Officers need assistance, upstairs.

'Upstairs!'

'Officers need assistance now.'

Check it out.

'10-13, 10-13.'

'Get down, get down.'

Come on.

'You'll have to take the baby.'

Alright.

Let's go.

Officers need assistance.
Upstairs! Upstairs!

Upstairs!

Hey.

'Let's go.'

Get back to the bus. Go
back to the bus. Stay down.

'Stay down.'

Ah!

- You alright. - Yeah, I'm alright.

'He went out the back.'

- Stay with her. - 'Out the back.'

Ah.

You're under arrest.

Down on your knees.

Kneel down.

'Hands behind your head.'

Kneel down.

Ah!

Uh.

Crazy bitch!

Kneel down.

Hands behind your head.

Hands behind your head.

Okay, okay.

'Uh, uh.'

You gonna spend the
rest of your life in a joint.

I hope it's a long way.

Get him in a ambulance.

Great. Now what?

- I don't lie. - What?

You were saying that, uh,
I was lying to all of you all.

But I-I don't lie.

What are you talking about?

I'm back because I wanna be back.

No, you're here because you
crossed the line with Eugene.

No, I told the truth. Eugene killed Taylor.

Doc, you gotta talk to
someone. A professional.

About what?

You purposely ran over someone today.

He was shooting at Sulli and Davis...

So, what are you a cop
now? Your job is to take...

Whoa, whoa, I don't need
you to tell me what my job is.

I was doing this job long before

you even thought about being a paramedic.

Yeah, well, you're not doing it anymore.

You're screwing up, doc.

Alright.

What's this really about? Huh?

I mean are you trying to take my job?

Do you wanna be the supervisor that bad?

I am the supervisor.

I don't care, why you came back.

And I don't care, if you wanna make believe

this has nothing to do with Eugene.

And I don't care, if you're lying

so much that you
actually believe it yourself.

But let me make one thing clear.

My status is not gonna change.

And if you don't like
the way things are here

You'll be asked to be transferred.

- Transferred? - Mm-hmm.

Outta my house?

Yeah.

Kimmy, I was here when
you were hoping nobody'd

notice your life's exhibit
the home coming dance.

I made a mistake when I left.

The big mistake, but, I'm back now.

And I'm damn sure not gonna listen to you

try to validate a position
that you only hold

because I left.

You pull anything, like you pulled today..

Not only I'll write you
up but I'll make sure

they pull your certification.

Mr. Naito.

It's Nieto.

Mr. Nieto.

So, the test..

I'm sorry, you were no match for Kiely.

But I put her on the donor list.
