All language subtitles for NYPD Blue (1993) - S05E02 - Alls Wells That Ends Well (1080p HULU WEB-DL x265 LION)

Morning, detectives.

And a very good morning
to you.

What's the story?

Bar's robbed,
one of the stickup men
shot this guy.

From the look of it,
he must have been trying
to get out.

Caught it in the back
of the head.

"Jerome Lester."

40 bucks
in his wallet.

That's why he ran.

What you mean?

Take a look
at this guy's shoes.

40 bucks meant
a lot to him.

Figure he risked his life
for 40 bucks?

Might've been worth
the gamble, you know?

Can I go now?
I gotta get my daughter
off to school.

You know this guy?
I don't know him.

You see who shot him?
Nope.

Wasn't looking.

They shot the hell
out of him,
didn't they?

Can I leave now?
I gotta get to work.

Nobody's leaving.

Well, how long you
gonna keep me here?

You know,
the least you can do
is buy the drinks.

Forget it.
Just get out of here.

New York's finest.
Don't say much for New York.

Go on.
Get out of here.

Any of
the other ones here

gonna be
sober enough
to make a statement?

All right,
cut out the drinking.

Well, it's a little late
for that.

You should have
suspended service

the minute
you walked in here.

They saw the guy get shot.
They all need a drink.

These are
your hard-core boozers
in here this early.

You're making
excuses for them?

All of them got
their own excuse.

No, I'm just saying.

One thing I hate
is a drunk witness.

Look out.

Detective.

Any of this police technique
coming back to you?

Hey, sir,

put the bottle down.

I'm detective sipowicz.

This is
detective Simone.

We wanna know
what happened here.

And don't be giving
these people no more drinks.

There was 3 of them.

One of them came
around the bar

and emptied
the cash register.

Then they shot the man,
and they all ran out.

Why'd they shoot him?

They just shot him.

They told us,
"don't nobody leave,"

and that's why
they shot him.

He was leaving?
That's right.

So what did
this guy look like,

the one that
pulled the trigger?

Tall,
had a hat on.

A black hat.

It was a brown hat.

A black hat.

Never mind his hat.
What about the guy?

Was he white,
black, or what?

Black. It was
all 3 of them black.

They was
3 hard-looking guys,
I tell you that.

They would have killed me
in a second.

How about
their ages?

Looked to me
about 30.

Uh, nothing
out of the ordinary
as far as appearances.

Run-of-the-mill,
as far as looks go.

Anyone over here
recognize these guys?

No.
No.

Maybe from drinking here
before.

I never seen them.

- How many shots fired?
- One.

2.
It was one!

All right. Stop bickering
about the shots, all right?

I knew I shouldn't
have asked that.

Everybody get some I.D.
on the table here.

We're gonna need to
take down your names.

He was wearing
a brown hat

with one of them
little bird feathers...

Sir! Sir! Sir!

We're done
with the hat, ok?

You gonna tell me
you actually missed this?

Would've had to
beat it out of me.

Let's see some I.D.

I didn't really
see him that good.

He came out
from behind me.

I didn't even know
he was there.

And I'd just unlocked
my door

and he grabbed me

and he pushed me in...

And he had his hand
over my mouth.

He got me down
on the floor,

and he said he'd kill me
if I screamed.

Now, the cop said
you told him

you could tell
the assailant was white.

I saw him when he left.

It was really dark,

it was really dark,

but the light was
coming in from the street.

Can you remember
anything else about him?

He had, um... an earring,

like a hoop.

And he had
stubble whiskers.

Oh, he looked...

He looked like he was
maybe late 20s.

He much taller
than you?

Well, it seemed
like he was, but...

He wasn't real big.

Maybe 6 feet?

Yeah, I guess he was.

I'm not going back
to that hotel.

I was only staying there
till I found an apartment.

Now I don't know
where to go.

I don't even know
if I want to live
in New York anymore.

Where is your home,
Molly?

Providence.

I mean, I haven't
been here that long.

I just got a job here,

but maybe I'll quit
and move back
to Rhode Island.

Only I can't
face my parents.

This will kill them.

But I'm afraid to go
back to that hotel.

You've seen a counselor
here, haven't you?

Yeah. She came in here
a little while ago.

You should call
your parents.

When you're ready
to leave here,

they could
come for you

and go get
your things.

Would you
call them for me?

Sure, I'll call them.
What's their number?

Look, I don't want them
to know yet.

Let me just think
about this a little more.

Ok.

Can I help you?

Yeah. I wanna speak
to the detectives
at the bar.

Detective sipowicz.

Will bartlett.

I was at the bar.

Something was wrong
with what the people
were saying.

Uh, so, why don't you
come on in here.

Sit down.

How do you mean, wrong?

Well, I seen the man
get shot,

and it wasn't
one of them
stickup guys

who done it.

It wasn't, huh?

I mean, everybody
say it was,

but I know
what I seen.

It was
emmit purcell.

Who's that?

He comes in
every now and again,

some kind of jail guard
on Rikers Island.

You know him?

Don't know him good.

Talked to him
a time or two.

Was he with
these stickup guys?

No. He had nothing
to do with them.

He was just
having a drink,

and I was down at
his end of the bar

and I seen
what happened.

They was sticking
the place up,

and I see purcell's
holding a pistol.

And he went
and shot that man.

Now, the robbers,
they took off.

Purcell, he lit out
the back.

But everybody's
talking how
the robbers done it.

Now, I don't know
whether I should
stay quiet or what.

But it was purcell
shot the man.

So the customers
covered up for him?

Nah. Most of them
had their head down.

Plus they're drunks.

You know where we can
find this guy purcell?

No, sir, I don't.

But you are sure about
what you're saying here?

I know what I seen.

I'm a situational
drinker,

unlike them others.

Forgive me.
I don't inquire
about the situation.

Let call the inspector
general's office
at corrections.

You guys gonna
need me anymore?

We got your address,
right?

Yeah. He took it down
at the bar from my
driver's license.

So we got that
if we need you.

Am I gonna have
to testify?

We're not sure yet.

Listen, we appreciate
your coming in.

Yeah. Sure.

Listen,

I don't know what
purcell had in mind,

but him shooting
that man,

that had to have
been a mistake.

This is detective Simone
over at 15th squad.

I'm doing a check on one
of your officers,

a purcell.

How's your rape victim?

Oh, lousy.

Raped her
and gave her
a bad beating.

White male, maybe late 20s.
Hoop earring.

Matches the other rapes.

It's gotta be
the same guy.

They oughta have
a security guard
in that hotel,

but the landlord
don't give a damn.

He's living
someplace in Europe.

Probably
on the riviera.

A month between the first
and second rape.

Only a week between
this and that one.

Hang on.

Jill.

Greg.

What's going on, lieu?

Diane and James are
working another rape
at that hotel.

I want you in there
on surveillance.

You can set up
in a couple of rooms.

They gave us
permission before.

Place got a video
surveillance system?

They got an old
system in there,

but they never
bother using it.

We checked that out
on the last rape.

All right. I'll send
tarr and rue over there.

They can hook up monitors
to the whole system.

Ok, get over there
and start now.

Ok, boss.

Just got a tip
a corrections officer

was the shooter
in our bar homicide.

You think he was part
of the stickup team?

Uh, no. He was just
in there drinking.

A guy named purcell.
Works out at rikers.

Inspector general's office
said he's been out sick
for the last 2 months.

Gets to the bars
pretty early
for a sick man.

We'll go
talk to him.

Maybe this guy
was mistaken,

'cause everybody
else in the joint

said one
of the skells
blasted the guy.

Hey, Bobby.

Good to see you
working.

Yeah. Thanks, lieu.

Let me call this guy.

Good morning, James.

Good morning.

I hope I didn't
worry you.

Where are you
gonna be safer
than at your mother's?

I was using
the time to think.

Yeah, I figured
as much.

And, uh, I'd like
to tell you that...

I'd very much like
to accept your proposal.

You just made me
the happiest guy
in america, Gina.

And I would very much
like to accept.

Consider it done.

We, uh, owe
each other a kiss.

Minimum.

Mr. Purcell, this is
detective Bobby Simone.

I'm calling from the 15th squad.

We're investigating
an automobile report.

The witness gave us
your license number.

No, sir, I don't
know anything

about an incident
at a bar.

No. I was told
to contact you

about a traffic accident.

That's right.

Hey, James.

Let's go.

Would it be
convenient for us
to come around now?

Great. Great.

Great.

He bought it?

He bought it.

Well, so long.

What was that?

That's this.

Mr. Purcell?

What
do you want?

Detective Simone.
We spoke on the phone.

Some other time.

I can't come
to the door.

Probably too drunk.

Open up, Mr. Purcell.
Come on.

We'll straighten this out
real quick.

Detective Simone.

This is detective
sipowicz.

I'm... I'm not focusing.

Detective's shield, huh?

What's the matter
with you?

My head's swimming.
I'm not feeling good.

All right. You said
something about
a traffic accident?

Yeah. Why don't you
let me explain
why we're here.

I can prove
it wasn't me,

'cause I don't
drive no more.

Why don't you
be quiet

and listen to what
my partner's gonna
tell you?

We want to know
what happened

at that bar this morning,
Mr. Purcell.

Yeah, even if you said
you didn't on the phone.

Yeah, well, we got
some witnesses

that put you there
and told us some things,

and we need to hear
your side.

Well, I was in there,
that's true enough.

You see a robbery
happen?

It's kind of hard to say
what all went on there.

They was robbing
the place.

Did you recognize them?

I don't remember.

You don't remember
if you recognized them?

Yeah, uh-huh.

Hey, hey. Pay attention.

I'm asking, did you
recognize them?

Um... no.

You drunk?

I'm kinda vague.

I might have had
2 or 3 drinks.

Did you see
the shooting happen?

Mr. Purcell?

Shooting.

Yeah, the shooting.
There was a shooting
there.

Did you see it
happen?

This your weapon?

Uh, yes.
I'm a corrections officer.

Rikers Island.

That's right.

Did you have this
with you at the bar?

Well, I take it
when I go out.

You got an expended round
in here, purcell.

You want to tell me
about that?

Hmm? When'd you
fire this bullet?

When did you fire
this bullet?

I'm asking you
for some answers!

A customer got
shot dead in that bar,

which we got a witness
says he saw you shoot.

Now you better
start explaining
this empty casing.

Look... look...

I'm a dying man.

I got cancer of
the pancreatic gland...

And they can't operate.

Do you hear
what I'm saying?

And I'm loaded
on pain medication.

I was drinking
in there,

and I took
my medication.

And that was
a bad combination.

Just set my head
swimming.

I was in a confusion
when they pulled
that holdup.

They was threatening
to shoot people,

and I thought somebody
oughta put a stop to it.

Is that what you
were trying to do?

I was gonna
pop one of them.

Oh, man...

You were thinking
clear enough

to leave the bar
after you did it.

There was a commotion.

Nobody even stopped me,

so I wasn't even sure
if I'd done it or not.

This is going
to ballistics.

You gotta come in.

If I went and killed
a customer having a drink,

I don't know how
I'm gonna live with that.

Look, we're gonna
have to take you in
to the station house

so we can sort
this whole thing out.

I don't wanna die
in the lockup.

Now don't go
thinking like that.

Come on, let's go.

Come on.

Take what you need
with you.

What's wrong?

I killed an innocent man,
didn't I?

What about
your medication?

You need
to take that?

You want a drink
of some kind?

No.

What am I supposed
to do now,

write up my confession?

Collect yourself
a little there.

We'll come take
your statement.

Keep an eye
on him.

You know
a good trait in me?

Guy could have a hatchet
splitting his forehead,

mortal illness
like this guy,

I'll land hard on them
for their drinking.

Him being so sick,

maybe they'll
decline prosecution.

You wouldn't wanna
make book on that?

Detective.

Hey, what's up, Gina?

Bellevue reported
they had a black male
come into emergency

with a bullet wound.

Gina?

You got any good news
you might wanna confess?

You might wanna
talk to James.

'Cause you were
the subject

of a lot of smiles
and signifying before.

You should probably
talk to him.

What this was...

Martinez is doing
the right thing.

Look, purcell's not
going anywhere.

We should go
check this guy
at bellevue out.

"Black male with
a gunshot wound."

Here's a once-
in-a-lifetime event.

We went to work on him
as soon as he showed up.

He was losing
considerable blood.

We got most
of the bullet out.

He's still got
a fragment inside.

Did anybody
come in with him?

No. He walked in
by himself.

How you feeling,
Mr. Wells?

Oh... about as, you know,

about as good as you
can expect, considering.

Much pain?

Nothing I can't handle.

I wouldn't want
no more, though.

These gentlemen are from
the police department.

Detective Simone
and, uh...

Sipowicz.

How'd you come
to get shot, levon?

That's what
I been wondering.

Don't make no sense.

I mean, I'm walking
down the street

looking to get me
some orange juice,

and this car come around
and boom... I'm hit.

You see who did it?

Guy hanging out
a window.

You got any idea why
he was shooting at you?

Just 'cause
I was there, I guess.

I mean, you know,
drive-by thing.

It looked like, um...

Like a puerto rican
dude.

Him and the driver both.

Any witnesses
see this happen?

Nah. It wasn't
nobody around.

It was down there
below Houston street.

How'd you get yourself
to the hospital?

I hailed me a cab.

Mm-hmm.

Nobody's around, but a cab
just happened to come by.

You ever been in trouble
with the law, levon?

Um, nothing to speak of.

I mean, short of
a speeding ticket

or something like that.

This guy that shot you,
what'd he look like?

Describe him.

He was...

A young...
Puerto rican guy.

If you saw him again,
you think you'd
recognize him?

I guess. I wasn't...

I didn't really try
and study him.

You know, I was...

Really wondering about
what the hell had just
happened to me.

I didn't know, maybe
I was gonna die.

But the doc, you know,

he did a great job.

How about showing me
where the phone is?

Sure. Uh, there's one
right down the hall.

Take care
of yourself, levon.

Right.
Thank you.

Doc.

Say you waited
a few hours

before you took the rest
of that bullet out.

Could he walk
out of here?

He could.

I'm not sure how responsible
it would be to let him.

There was a homicide
in a bar this morning.

This guy fits
the description.

We got the witnesses.

All we need is time
to put him in a lineup.

Then you could
have him back here,

you can do all
the surgery you want.

You got the authority?

As long as
in my judgment,

I'm not endangering
the patient.

So, what does
your judgment
tell you, doc?

If he starts bleeding,

you have to bring him
right in.

Definitely.

All right. Go ahead
and take him.

I like this guy's ethics.

Oh. I'd better
get some coffee.

Get me one,
too, huh?

Black, huh?

Yeah.

It's a woman
coming in.

Yeah. I don't
like mine black.

I used to take it
with cream and sugar.

She's out of view.

Now I'm restricting
my calories.

I've been taking it
with low-fat milk

and just a dash
of sugar.

Course of the day,
that makes a big
difference.

She's in the elevator.

Abby, now, she says
renouncing coffee

is one of the big
adjustments

of her entire pregnancy.

Hey, who's that guy?

Where'd he
come from?

That's him.

Possible suspect
just entered
the elevator.

There's a girl
in there.

They're going up.

Yeah. We see him.

It's the fifth floor.

Let's go.

Help!

Police!

Aah!
Hey, let her go!
Let her go!

Let her go!
You gonna shoot me?
You gonna shoot me?

Get your hands
staybehind your back.
Down!

Shut up, or
I will shoot you.
Don't shoot.

Are you ok?
Are you hurt?

Uhh!

All right! Ooh!

- You all right?
- Get up.

Sit down.

Ahh!

Ohh! Man, I don't
feel too good.

Just hang in there.
In a minute or two,

you'll be able
to point out the guy
who shot you.

Go on in, guys.

We doing this now?

Yeah.

What's goin' on?

Uh... we gotta run
this other lineup first.

Why don't you just
sit there? You can be
one of the fillers.

I'm not standin'
in no damn lineup.

You told me
I was supposed to be
lookin' at a lineup.

Just do me a favor.
To hell with
some favors.

What's the matter?
You ain't got nothin'
to hide, do you, levon?

No, I got nothin'
to hide, but...

Then just sit there.
You're not feeling good,

and we need an extra
guy. What's the problem?

What's the problem?

We're trying to I.D. a guy
who was copping a feel
on the subway.

Ohhh.

That's real sick, man.

I never did nothin'
like that before.

Ever. I mean... and...

You know that,
and I know that.

You ain't
got nothin'
to worry about.

You just fillin'
up a seat.

Move your leg over,
man.

You heard me.

Oh. Here. Let me
straighten that
out for you.

All right.

Somebody in here
is sick, and I hope
he get caught.

Set.

All right. Like I said,
this is a one-way glass.
They can't see ya.

I want you to
take a good look
at each one of 'em.

If you recognize anybody,
you tell us which number and
where you recognize him from.

All right?
All right.

Let's do it.

Number 2.
He was one of 'em.

You sure?
Yeah. He was
right in my face yelling
he was gonna kill me.

He shoot
the customer?

No. It was one
of the others
that did it.

You see this guy
here get shot?
I didn't know
he got shot.

Maybe they shot him
someplace else.

All right,
hold number 2.
The rest can go.

Number...

Numb...
You lyin' bitch!

Sit down!

I never pinched you
on no subway!

You never seen me before,
and you know it!

Why don't you come out here
and look me in my face,

tell me that I felt...

That it?
That's it, until
we get the other two.

These stupid cops
have got us all mixed up!

I shouldn't
even be here!
Shut that guy up.

Shut up!

That bitch is lying!

I never put my hands
on her! None of this
is gonna stick!

The judge'll
throw this
outta court!

Tryin' to run some
stupid-ass frame-up
like this.

You ain't
got nothin'.

Oh, nothin'.

No. You just
got picked out

by the witness
at that bar
on second Avenue,

and we got
7 other witnesses

that saw you
pulling that stickup.

You think they're
gonna forget a face
like you got?

Sit down.

I'm weak
from losin' my blood,
and you harassin' me.

I don't know
about no stickup.

You're looking
at first degree murder.
We're harassing you.

I never murdered
nobody!

Well, who knows?
That may be true.

If it is, you need
to clear this whole
thing up for us,

'cause right now
you are looking
at the death penalty.

They wanna croak
somebody for this,
levon,

but it don't
have to be you.

You give us who
pulled the trigger,
we'll go to the D.A.

And get
this murder charge
off you.

Will you
give me light time
on the robbery?

We will do our best.
D.A. tends to listen
to us.

Son of a bitch...
Put me in a hospital.

I'm... I'm the victim.

How did you happen
to get shot there, levon?

In the bar.

You got shot
at the bar.
Yeah.

We went in there.
One of those damn fools
was so high,

he didn't know
what he was doin'.

We was all high
when we went in there.

I don't even know
what really happened.

Your partner
is stupid enough
to shoot you.

Why in the hell
are you gonna want to
take the fall for him?

'Cause this is all
coming down on you.

Who did the shooting
in there, levon?

Give us a name.

They kill you
with a needle
full of poison...

I know how
they do you!

It's a dude
named Perry willits
did the shootin'.

Who else was there?
I gotta give you
him, too?

Yeah, you gotta
give us him, too.
What do you think?

We don't come up
with these guys, you
don't get no deal.

It's Richie day.

Where we gonna
find these guys?

I don't know
where they gone.

Dropped me off
at the hospital and
went off someplace.

How about your cut
of the money?

I'm supposed
to pick it up
from them later on.

They got a beeper number
I was gonna call.

You trust these guys
are gonna be
waiting for you?

I don't know.
Maybe I don't.

What's
the beeper number?

I want to see
this D.A. first.

You'll see the D.A.
when we got something
to offer him.

What's
the beeper number?

Over there.

Can I say something,
please?

That's what
we're here for.

I'm just sorry about
this whole thing, ok?

It was more just
like a misunderstanding.

Oh.

Well. Then that ought
to take care of it.

Look, I liked
her looks, ok?

I... I just wanted
to talk to her.

I just went about it
the wrong way.
Yeah.

Yeah, I guess attempted
rape isn't the best way
to introduce yourself.

Hold it. You think
I'm tryin' to rape
that girl, you're wrong.

There've been 3 rapes
committed in that hotel.

So what? That wasn't me.
I never done it, never will.
I'm not interested in that.

Look, i'm
into consensable sex.

Even pay for it
if I have to.

Is this a kind of joke
or something?

Look, it was a robbery,
pure and simple.

I saw this girl
at the atm machine.

She took out
about $100 at least,
so I followed her.

I was gonna take her purse
right then and there, boom,

but there's too many
people around.

So she ducked
into the hotel.

I'm thinkin' I'll rip her
off from there. That's all.
No, Barry.

That's not what happened.
You were gonna rape her
like you did the other two.

And you're gonna go away
for most of your life

if you don't start
thinking about copping
a plea right now.

Look, I'm nothin'
but a thief.

I'm nonviolent.
I couldn't
even do a rape.

I'm not made
like that.

I'm a lover,
not a rapist.

You're a liar.
That's what you are.

All right,
we got Barry's sheet.

Robbery, shoplifting,
purse snatching,
petty larceny of a dog.

A dog?

This dog followed me.

Huh. With you
pulling the leash?

I was taking the dog back
when I got busted.

The point is, you see
any rapes on there?

No.

No.

Huh?

I'm nothin'
but a two-bit thief.

Can't you see
that you got
the wrong guy here?

I'm gonna run over
to the hospital.

Yeah. Do that.

Levon. You're just
leaving the hospital
now. Ok?

Hello.

Yeah, it's me.

Well, they patched me up.
I'm about to get
outta here right now.

Where we gonna meet at?
I gotta get my money.

Huh? No,
it wasn't no trouble.

I just told 'em
it was a drive-by.

Yeah, they asked me
some questions,

but they was
some dumb cops.

Hey, look, man,
where you at?
I... I'll come by.

No. No, I don't want
to do that, man.
I'm weak, you know?

Why don't you
wait out front?

Yeah, why I gotta stand up
in my condition, man?

All right.
Ok. All right. Look...

I'll be there, all right?
I gotta get my money, man.

All right.

Where they gonna be?

This, uh...

Bar down there
on the corner.
Half hour.

What corner?

Down around Allen
and... and somethin'.

Allen and somethin',
huh?

You know how many
bars they got on
Allen and somethin'?

Why are you
so much trouble, man?

It's the pastime bar.

Why didn't you say so?

I didn't... didn't I
just tell him that?

Wait! First you said
I wasn't gonna even
have to be there.

Now I gotta stand
on the corner.

You agreed to it.
I had to.

They gonna know
I ratted 'em out now.

Make contact?

Yeah. We're
picking 'em up.

Hey. You better not go
back on your word to me

'cause now
I gotta be there
when they get busted.

I shoulda never
had nothin'
to do with this.

Don't worry about it.
We're gonna grab you up
to make it look real good.

Ok, you're gonna
need backup.

Medavoy and kirkendall
are in the house.
Take them.

All right.
We got half an hour.
We gotta get going.

Come on.
Let's go, levon.
Let's go.

I got do everything
for you, man.

Come on, hurry up.
Let's go downtown
and get shot, right?

Come on, let's go.
Walk a little slower.
Come on.

Yeah, I appreciate it.
Ok.

Hey.

How'd it go
at the hospital?

Marlene wasn't sure
this Barry was the guy.
He give anything up?

No. He's, uh,
sticking to his story.

I gotta say,
he's kinda convincing.

Any possibility he was
going after her purse
like he said?

I guess it's
possible, yeah.

Would you come
over here?

I ordered this stuff
from Jersey

a couple of weeks ago.
Sex offenders?

Yeah. I was going
through it, and
I came across this guy.

He's got the look.

His name's
Stanley houser.

He just got
out of the joint
4 months ago.

He was in
for attempted rape.

You know
where he is?

Yeah. He's here
on the lower east side.

I talked
to his parole officer.

He's working
as a dishwasher
in this restaurant.

It's not very far
from the Harding hotel.

We better bring
this guy in.
Thanks.
Sure.

I need a minute.
I gotta go
to the John.

James.

Hey. How's it going
with your suspect?

We know he did this assault
today, but we're not sure
he did the earlier rapes.

I want to tell you
how happy I am.

I am, too, Gina.

Now that we've decided,
I wish we were
married right away.

You do?

How about we see if we
can make that happen?

Hold it right there!
Get your hands up.

Get your hands up!
Don't move!
Don't move.

Put your hands
where I can see 'em!

Turn around!
Hands above your head!
He's got a gun!

Ow! That hurts, man!
Hands behind you!

Get 'em up!

Look, man,
don't make it
look so good, man.

Don't tell 'em
nothin', levon.
Shut up! Gimme your hand.

Whatever it is,
I didn't do it, man!
Quit pushin' me!

What's your badge
number? You'll be
walkin' a beat.

You'll
be cleanin' toilets,
messin' around with me.

Get down.

You like
that dish-washing job?
Yeah, it's, uh...

Grunt work,
but I don't mind.
I want to work.

Have a seat.

You want a soda
or something?
No.

So, uh...
Why am I here?

What do you want?

What were you doing
last night, Stanley?

I had the day off.
I just slopped around.

You went out,
didn't you?
Yeah.

I went out.
I just messed round.

Doing what?

Uh, nothin'.

I, uh...

Went for a walk.
Watched the action.

You mean, like,
uh... women?

No. Just
whatever there was.

Then I went
to a movie.

What movie
did you see?

Well, I didn't
really see it.

I, uh...
Changed my mind.
I didn't go in.

Oh.

That walk you took.

You pick out a woman
and follow her?

Come on,
what do you think,

I see a good ass
and follow it around
the rest of the night?

Did you follow
a good ass?
No!

Did you follow
anybody?

No! I don't like
where this is goin'!

All right?

You're thinkin'
somethin' filthy
about me,

and I just want
to do my job

and mind
my own business,

but you got
a prejudice
against me

'cause
I'm a former felon,
all right?

Well, pardon me if I've
treated you unfairly!

Now, were you
in the Harding hotel
last night?

I don't know that place!
I never been there
in my life.

Well, somebody who
looks like you was there.
Yeah, well, who says?

The woman you raped!

Same guy
that raped 2 other
women in there.

We're gonna bring in all
3 women, and they're gonna
have a good look at you.

They're not gonna have
no memory problems.
You can bet on that.

And I gotta tell ya...
There's nobody the jury
hates like a rapist.

A judge,
he's been around
plenty of them.

They show remorse
for what they did,

he can understand
as human beings
that they've

lost control
and made a mistake.

A jury... no.

They're gonna be
out for blood.

Can I talk
to you alone?

Yeah. Yeah, let me go
do something else.

How'd you like 12
on a jury like her?

12 women.

It's been known
to happen.

Ask me, Stanley,
what you need
is a male judge.

But you gotta
show remorse.

A lot of guys
don't think
it's important,

but let me tell ya,
it's important...

If you show remorse
and they think
you want to change.

But you gotta be
genuine.

Stanley. Do you know
what remorse means?

Yeah. You gotta be, uh...
You gotta be real sorry.

Right. If you
don't feel it, you gotta
make yourself feel it.

What you need to do
is write it out

and explain to the judge
how it happened.

They were young once.

They know how a guy
can go around thinking
about it all day,

streets full of girls,
maybe get drunk,
get a little crazy.

You lost control,
and you're sorry
about what happened.

I really am sorry.

There you go.

Now you're
expressing the pain
that you caused.

I am. I am.

And... I was drunk,
like you said,

and... and, uh...

I'm sorry
if I hurt anybody.

I feel... remorse.

Ok. Now you're ready
to explain it to a judge.

You're off the hook
for the rape, Barry.

Thank god.
I told you
it wasn't me.

I was just
stealin' her purse.

You're being charged
with that,

also assault
and resisting arrest.

Plus every dog missing
in Manhattan. We're taking
a hard look at you.

Now, come on.
We're going to the tombs.

Then i'm
getting married.

Ok. Thanks a lot.

Yeah. Blue ribbon
for speed.

How's chatter-mouth?

Now they're not sure
if they wanna
go for the bullet.

But he's all right?

Bullet in the dead guy
wasn't purcell's.

No?

Crime lab just give me
the ballistics.

It's a .25.
Purcell's gun's a .38.

So the bullet in levon
is from purcell.

Shots must've went off
at the same time.

That's got to be
some big load
off purcell's mind.

Oh, yeah.
Now he won't have
a care in the world.

Purcell.

How you
feeling there?
Doing better?

Uhhh...

My head's better.

I'm not woozy.

But I just can't get
no peace over this thing.

I'm ready to talk
if you ready
to write it down.

You don't have
to make no confession.

You're
going home.
They giving me bail?

You don't need none.
You're free.

What about
the innocent man I shot?

We got back
the ballistics.

Shows shots fired
from 2 different guns.

One of the guys
stuck the place up

went to the emergency room
with a gunshot wound.

The bullet they took
from his shoulder
was from your gun.

Wh-what about
the dead man?

One of the stickup guys
shot him.

I didn't...

I didn't see it.

The way we figure it...

Uhh...

You didn't hear
the other gun go off

'cause, uh, you shot
about simultaneous
with the stickup guy,

plus your senses
being dulled.

I had a few drinks,

and I remember
I took my medication,

and I hadn't had
no breakfast,

so I shouldn't have been
carrying a gun like that.

Truth is, without you
shooting that skel
in the shoulder,

we probably
wouldn't have found
none of them.

Even so, from now on,
you should leave
that gun home.

Oh, that's...

That's a weight off me,
knowing I didn't
kill nobody.

Well, we're glad enough
to be able to tell you.

You think they gonna
need me in court later on?

We'll keep you posted
on that.

Why don't you go home now
and get some rest?

You know... I would like
to write up a statement,

though I don't know
how much longer
I'm gonna be here.

You know,
I'm knocking off.

Why don't I
give you a ride?

Yeah. We're both
knocking off.

Come on.
We'll give you
a ride home.

Ohh...
Ha ha ha!

I think this is
the honeymoon suite.

No. I seen pictures.
This isn't it.

Well,
it's a honeymoon suite.

Ah...

The one time I thought
my uncle being
a degenerate gambler

would actually
work out a plus.

The suite's fine,
James.

Yeah.

No reason
we should allow
room disappointment

to overshadow
the occasion.

I'm glad we did it
like this.

No saying
if you decide later

we can't have
a second ceremony
for the families.

It's our marriage.
It's our baby.

It's our life together.

That sounds like a plan.

Husband and wife now.

I can undress
in front of you.

Whoa. If I had known that,
I would've really insisted.

Your sweet belly.

Say "I love you"
to your child.

I love you.

And I love your mother.

That was nice,
set them compartments up
for his medications.

Left field how he is,
he'll probably use 'em
for dinner utensils.

Yeah.

Anyways, uh...

Good to be back
working with you.

Same here, Bobby.

Good night, partner.

See you tomorrow.

You take care.
I'll see you tomorrow.
