Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:09,024 --> 00:01:15,213
Night Falls on Manhattan
2
00:02:41,993 --> 00:02:45,693
My name is McGovern.
Mr. McGovern to you.
3
00:02:46,497 --> 00:02:50,247
I am the Assistant to the Assistant
Deputy Administrative Assistant to...
4
00:02:50,335 --> 00:02:52,410
the District Attorney of New York County.
5
00:02:53,004 --> 00:02:56,420
You are in training as Assistant
District Attorneys of New York County.
6
00:02:56,591 --> 00:02:59,213
And my Assistant title is a hell of a
lot higher than your Assistant title.
7
00:02:59,928 --> 00:03:03,427
So watch your asses you're out of here.
You passed your bar exams and 're here...
8
00:03:03,516 --> 00:03:05,424
because you didn't get a decent offer
after law school...
9
00:03:05,476 --> 00:03:06,850
and you got to start someplace.
10
00:03:06,892 --> 00:03:09,348
I know what you got in mind. You'll do
your time here because...
11
00:03:09,437 --> 00:03:11,513
you got to have something on your resume.
12
00:03:11,939 --> 00:03:14,099
One or two of you figure maybe you'll
get lucky, maybe Alan Dershowitz,
13
00:03:14,192 --> 00:03:16,185
maybe Bruce Cutler will see you...
14
00:03:16,277 --> 00:03:19,694
in court one day waiting for their cases
to come up and your career will be made.
15
00:03:20,406 --> 00:03:23,111
Most of you just want a stepping stone
to some Wall Street law office...
16
00:03:23,201 --> 00:03:25,277
or a divorce firm with society clients.
17
00:03:25,370 --> 00:03:28,454
You're in it for the money.
Don't give me any crap about justice...
18
00:03:28,540 --> 00:03:31,991
the law, the sacredness of your duty,
blah blah, blah.
19
00:03:32,086 --> 00:03:34,124
You're out of here as fast as
a decent offer comes around
20
00:03:34,213 --> 00:03:36,584
you figure you can
do better chasing ambulances.
21
00:03:37,299 --> 00:03:39,422
Listen, you're going to fight judges
that don't give a shit,
22
00:03:40,551 --> 00:03:42,046
cops in court only to see how much
overtime they can rack up...
23
00:03:42,137 --> 00:03:45,304
rapists, gonifs, teenagers who shot
a guy over a pair of sneakers...
24
00:03:45,390 --> 00:03:48,510
scam artists, pimps, lunatics
who think they should be outside...
25
00:03:48,602 --> 00:03:51,009
walking around Central Park
trying to diddle seven-year-old kids.
26
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:53,307
So now we know the truth.
27
00:03:55,274 --> 00:03:59,568
Okay, your case load may run
forty cases at a time.
28
00:04:00,238 --> 00:04:03,653
You read your entire New York Penal
Code and your ECAB manual.
29
00:04:07,787 --> 00:04:10,788
There are five divisions in
the Rackets Division.
30
00:04:12,626 --> 00:04:16,919
Construction Industry Task Force.
Official Corruption Unit.
31
00:04:17,630 --> 00:04:19,707
Organized Crime.
32
00:04:19,884 --> 00:04:22,836
I'll set bail at five hundred dollars.
- Your honor...
33
00:04:23,554 --> 00:04:25,796
this woman knifed
a store security guard.
34
00:04:25,889 --> 00:04:27,300
Come on, counselor.
35
00:04:27,391 --> 00:04:31,969
Five hundred dollars to her is like
fifty-thousand to us. Have a heart.
36
00:04:32,979 --> 00:04:36,396
You weren't just caught with a nickel,
bag, Ed. You got to help me help you.
37
00:04:37,985 --> 00:04:39,563
I can get you into Rehab.
38
00:04:40,363 --> 00:04:42,983
You want to die in some toilet
with a spike in your arm?
39
00:04:43,071 --> 00:04:44,271
Fuck you.
40
00:04:44,324 --> 00:04:46,815
I represent the law
you show me respect, do you hear me?
41
00:04:49,788 --> 00:04:52,196
You want to die in some toilet with
a spike in your arm?
42
00:04:57,295 --> 00:04:59,621
Why do you think you should be released,
Mr. Agonostes?
43
00:04:59,714 --> 00:05:04,342
I signed myself in,
I can sign myself out...
44
00:05:04,427 --> 00:05:09,339
I signed myself in
I can sign myself out.
45
00:05:09,809 --> 00:05:12,726
I signed myself in,
I can sign myself out...
46
00:05:12,811 --> 00:05:16,227
We cannot let these people run wild
in the streets.
47
00:05:17,941 --> 00:05:22,569
I know you will do right by the people
of New York. Thank you.
48
00:05:27,577 --> 00:05:28,774
Your honor...
49
00:05:34,874 --> 00:05:35,905
Excuse me.
50
00:05:37,002 --> 00:05:39,493
Hi. Sorry I'm late, the judge kept...
51
00:06:15,708 --> 00:06:19,705
I got to cut down on the coffee.
I'm like a goddam pipe:
52
00:06:19,795 --> 00:06:21,870
I drink it, piss it out
five minutes later.
53
00:06:22,339 --> 00:06:29,006
I keep telling you: decaff, decaff.
- I've tried it. I'd rather piss.
54
00:06:33,225 --> 00:06:34,256
You know...
55
00:06:36,187 --> 00:06:37,894
I'm still not used to it.
56
00:06:40,525 --> 00:06:44,107
Every time we got to hit the door.
You're a lucky son of a bitch.
57
00:06:44,195 --> 00:06:46,271
You know,
I haven't slept for two nights?
58
00:06:48,115 --> 00:06:50,108
Well, I think maybe
I got no imagination...
59
00:06:50,159 --> 00:06:52,151
'cause I never think of
nothing going wrong.
60
00:06:52,244 --> 00:06:55,328
I sleep like a baby
no butterflies.
61
00:06:57,959 --> 00:07:01,743
Maybe 'cause I got you to protect me.
Yeah, yeah.
62
00:07:03,673 --> 00:07:08,380
Or maybe you're just stupid.
- I'm definitely stupid.
63
00:07:12,097 --> 00:07:14,671
But I'm also bigger than you, so why
don't you let me hit the door this time?
64
00:07:14,767 --> 00:07:17,721
Listen, you big slob,
how many times do I have to tell you?
65
00:07:17,811 --> 00:07:19,804
You're the junior member of the firm.
66
00:07:20,606 --> 00:07:23,476
The little guy goes first,
okay?
67
00:07:27,780 --> 00:07:31,944
That bastard could be up there now,
counting money. Listen...
68
00:07:33,411 --> 00:07:35,902
if we go in tonight, you and me,
we go fast. Right?
69
00:07:35,996 --> 00:07:38,120
Everybody wants this bastard.
70
00:07:38,624 --> 00:07:41,411
We got all three goddam precincts
coming together...
71
00:07:41,503 --> 00:07:43,211
on the four corners of this one block.
72
00:07:43,380 --> 00:07:46,630
I don't want any of those pricks from
the six-four, the six-five...
73
00:07:46,716 --> 00:07:48,793
horning in on this, right?
74
00:07:49,385 --> 00:07:51,543
We did the fucking work,
we get the fucking collar.
75
00:07:52,512 --> 00:07:53,757
What about back-up?
76
00:07:53,848 --> 00:07:56,386
We got the warrant. We're the ones
sitting here getting hemorrhoids
77
00:07:56,474 --> 00:07:58,099
we get the collar.
78
00:08:00,855 --> 00:08:04,603
You think Shmuelie the stoolie's going
to show up tonight, or what?
79
00:08:06,068 --> 00:08:09,105
He's a junkie.
How can you trust a junkie?
80
00:08:10,030 --> 00:08:13,815
You going to buy one some day,
you come on me like that.
81
00:08:15,328 --> 00:08:18,531
Well, fuck you, cop.
You think it's easy, huh?
82
00:08:18,664 --> 00:08:20,741
I'm crawling here so nobody spots me
and you think it's easy.
83
00:08:20,791 --> 00:08:22,867
You're breaking my heart, scumbag.
84
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,250
You just knock next time, or I'm going
to take your fucking head off.
85
00:08:25,297 --> 00:08:27,668
Why you talking to me like that, huh?
86
00:08:28,341 --> 00:08:31,426
Liam, why's he talking to me like that?
87
00:08:31,553 --> 00:08:34,803
Because really he loves you, Samuel.
You're our favorite rat.
88
00:08:34,931 --> 00:08:38,300
He's rough on you 'cause he doesn't want
the other rats we got to get jealous.
89
00:08:39,226 --> 00:08:43,934
Oh yeah, well fuck you too.
- Cut the bullshit. What've you got?
90
00:08:44,315 --> 00:08:46,391
Well, maybe I got nothing.
91
00:08:48,152 --> 00:08:51,735
Here, dick-head.
Get the fuck out of here.
92
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:56,903
He's up there now.
93
00:08:58,162 --> 00:09:01,911
He's up there now: apartment 3D.
- Alone?
94
00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:04,576
I don't know.
He may have got some guiff with him.
95
00:09:05,461 --> 00:09:07,040
Is he carrying?
96
00:09:07,380 --> 00:09:11,129
Come on. Jordan Washington don't make
a move without a rocket in his pocket.
97
00:09:12,803 --> 00:09:17,381
Get the fuck out of here.
- Hey, you guys are swell, really swell.
98
00:09:17,724 --> 00:09:20,345
I hope he gives you one in the kneecap.
Huh? Boom.
99
00:09:26,608 --> 00:09:29,395
Okay?
Let's go.
100
00:09:29,944 --> 00:09:31,687
Liam, I want to call for back-up.
101
00:09:31,778 --> 00:09:35,314
We'll have him trussed up like a deer
on a fender by the time they get here.
102
00:09:37,451 --> 00:09:39,990
Seven-four. This is Allegretto.
We got a fix on Jordan Washington.
103
00:09:40,079 --> 00:09:43,081
1-1-1-7 Barnard Street, apartment three,
David.
104
00:09:43,208 --> 00:09:47,205
We got two plain-clothes going in
with warrant. Send back-up. Come heavy.
105
00:10:54,237 --> 00:10:57,024
Ten-thirteen.
- Ten-thirteen. Location?
106
00:10:57,116 --> 00:11:01,279
Ten-thirteen. We got an officer down,
1-1-1-7,Barnard.
107
00:11:01,370 --> 00:11:03,860
1-1-1-7 Barnard.
108
00:11:41,660 --> 00:11:44,115
All right, now,
I want one man here...
109
00:11:44,204 --> 00:11:46,826
You two around the back.
And you do not give orders around here.
110
00:11:46,874 --> 00:11:48,950
This is my...
- Fuck you, I got a man bleeding up...
111
00:11:49,001 --> 00:11:51,158
Then get the hell up there and help him.
Now.
112
00:12:15,486 --> 00:12:18,570
What the fuck are you doing?
Get the fucking ambulance here.
113
00:12:18,780 --> 00:12:21,900
Fuck you, I'll come there and shoot you
myself. Get the fucking thing here.
114
00:12:21,992 --> 00:12:26,535
Okay, where the fuck is he, huh?
- The window. Down the fire escape.
115
00:12:32,002 --> 00:12:34,494
I'll go up, you go down.
- All right.
116
00:12:41,887 --> 00:12:45,670
Where's the light switch.
- Shit, it's dark.
117
00:12:48,810 --> 00:12:52,476
Charlie, don't go up on that roof alone.
- Got you, got you.
118
00:12:52,564 --> 00:12:53,893
All right, easy.
119
00:13:18,256 --> 00:13:21,175
Hit the deck.
- I think it came from up there.
120
00:13:26,306 --> 00:13:27,420
Charlie.
121
00:13:40,571 --> 00:13:44,403
It's all turned around.
Where the hell's the door?
122
00:14:10,268 --> 00:14:12,094
We need one in the back.
123
00:14:13,812 --> 00:14:15,640
It's about fucking time.
124
00:14:40,881 --> 00:14:43,088
All right, get him in there.
Let's go, come on.
125
00:14:47,012 --> 00:14:48,921
Come on, lock it up.
Lock it up.
126
00:15:03,528 --> 00:15:06,315
E.S.U., come on.
Come on.
127
00:15:07,241 --> 00:15:09,566
Take it round the back.
Round the back.
128
00:15:10,995 --> 00:15:13,201
Move it.
Come on, round the back.
129
00:15:15,959 --> 00:15:19,541
Over here.
- Lights, lights, I can't see.
130
00:15:26,010 --> 00:15:28,418
I've got his home number,
his wife's coming.
131
00:15:38,940 --> 00:15:42,890
Hey, get a radio over here.
Anybody got a radio that's working?
132
00:15:50,743 --> 00:15:53,115
Come in Schneider,
Ramirez, do you read me?
133
00:15:54,789 --> 00:15:57,706
God, that poor guy.
- Yeah, he should get a Police Medal.
134
00:15:57,793 --> 00:15:59,867
- It's too late for that.
135
00:16:18,230 --> 00:16:22,892
All the goddam tax money in this city
and we couldn't get an auditorium here?
136
00:16:30,533 --> 00:16:35,528
All right. I've just had a meeting with
the Mayor and the Police Commissioner
137
00:16:36,748 --> 00:16:39,285
We're going to get this son-of-a-bitch
in seventy-two hours...
138
00:16:39,375 --> 00:16:41,451
or a lot of you are going to be
looking for jobs.
139
00:16:42,044 --> 00:16:46,208
We got three dead cops, one cop
we don't know if he's going to live...
140
00:16:46,299 --> 00:16:49,548
and the biggest dope dealer in the city
got away in an NYPD car.
141
00:16:50,010 --> 00:16:52,846
We had a fuck-up
of historical proportions...
142
00:16:53,098 --> 00:16:57,510
and three Precinct Captains are joining
the homeless, I kid you not. Okay...
143
00:16:58,269 --> 00:17:00,096
So what is the District Attorney,
that's me...
144
00:17:00,189 --> 00:17:02,264
for you new kids on the block,
doing about it?
145
00:17:02,356 --> 00:17:06,058
On direct instructions from the Major,
every detective...
146
00:17:06,153 --> 00:17:09,652
in our investigating division is to
drop what he is working on and...
147
00:17:09,864 --> 00:17:13,779
to report to the Six-four, the Six-five
and the Seven-four to work with them.
148
00:17:13,869 --> 00:17:16,442
You're supposed to be the best
the best detectives in the city and...
149
00:17:16,538 --> 00:17:18,615
we're goddamn well going to see
if that is true.
150
00:17:20,125 --> 00:17:24,039
For the rest of you, in the Trial
Division or on the Executive Staff,
151
00:17:24,295 --> 00:17:28,791
if a cop or a detective needs a search
warrant at 3 A.M.. you're to type it up...
152
00:17:28,966 --> 00:17:33,214
go to the judge's house, pull him off
his wife or whoever else he's on top of...
153
00:17:33,304 --> 00:17:34,585
and get it signed.
154
00:17:34,889 --> 00:17:39,302
If anybody calls for a definition of
"probable cause", "reasonable suspicion"
155
00:17:39,352 --> 00:17:40,515
"stop and search",
156
00:17:40,562 --> 00:17:45,224
you look it up and fax it to him in
three minutes, or your ass is mine.
157
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,476
And you bend the fucking rules
158
00:17:47,570 --> 00:17:51,946
I don't want any goddamn civil-liberties
subtleties here.
159
00:17:52,199 --> 00:17:56,493
We get this cop-killing son-of-a-bitch,
and I'll deal with the ACLU later.
160
00:17:56,578 --> 00:17:57,907
Do you hear me?
161
00:18:02,209 --> 00:18:07,121
Who the fuck are you? Why are you late?
- Sean Casey, sir.
162
00:18:08,674 --> 00:18:13,833
I was at the hospital with my father.
- Oh, my God. Come here, kid.
163
00:18:15,889 --> 00:18:19,008
First, how is he?
164
00:18:21,102 --> 00:18:24,222
He's critical, but he's stable.
165
00:18:25,524 --> 00:18:27,516
They think the operation went well.
166
00:18:29,236 --> 00:18:30,612
How bad was he hit?
167
00:18:30,945 --> 00:18:35,157
He got three bullet wounds and there
were a lot of slivers from...
168
00:18:36,202 --> 00:18:38,489
you know, damage from the door
there's some in his eyes.
169
00:18:39,413 --> 00:18:44,158
You gave blood?
- Yes. Twice.
170
00:18:47,212 --> 00:18:51,590
You hear that, you dead-asses?
This kid just gave his blood. Twice.
171
00:18:52,259 --> 00:18:56,471
So, get to work. Get to work.
Now, come on.
172
00:18:56,847 --> 00:19:01,508
Sean. Elihu.
In my office.
173
00:19:02,185 --> 00:19:05,388
Sean, I'm Elihu Harrison.
Sorry to meet under these circumstances.
174
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,223
Come on, I'll show you
the way to Morgy's office.
175
00:19:07,316 --> 00:19:09,985
It's down the hall.
Over here.
176
00:19:16,116 --> 00:19:17,658
Right. I know.
177
00:19:19,327 --> 00:19:21,284
Here, sit, sit, sit.
178
00:19:23,582 --> 00:19:28,125
Have you eaten anything? It's all right.
- No.
179
00:19:30,381 --> 00:19:34,295
Eileen, call downstairs.
Two eggs over light, bacon very crisp...
180
00:19:34,844 --> 00:19:39,421
toasted bagel, butter and jam, and
a large pot of coffee. Get it here fast.
181
00:19:40,224 --> 00:19:42,300
Does the... Oh, Eli, you want anything?
- No, thanks.
182
00:19:42,351 --> 00:19:44,427
Does the hospital know how to reach you?
183
00:19:46,771 --> 00:19:49,346
I think I left an office number.
184
00:19:49,607 --> 00:19:53,143
Sean, nobody's going to answer
your phone, if you're not there.
185
00:19:55,697 --> 00:19:58,271
Eileen, if there are any calls from
the hospital for S. Casey...
186
00:19:58,367 --> 00:20:00,240
transfer them here.
187
00:20:01,411 --> 00:20:05,955
So kid, tell me: is he conscious?
- Not yet.
188
00:20:06,667 --> 00:20:08,908
But the operation,
it went well?
189
00:20:09,754 --> 00:20:14,581
Well, I think that's what they said.
They use so many technical terms, I...
190
00:20:15,593 --> 00:20:19,886
Eileen, call Dr. Pritzker. Tell him
I want a no-bullshit report on Sean's...
191
00:20:19,973 --> 00:20:21,716
Excuse me, your father's first name?
- Liam.
192
00:20:21,808 --> 00:20:25,592
Liam? Liam Casey.
And to keep me informed.
193
00:20:26,186 --> 00:20:28,476
Pritzker's the head of surgery
194
00:20:28,563 --> 00:20:29,430
Thank you, Mr. Morgenstern.
195
00:20:29,524 --> 00:20:33,142
Morgy. Morgy to you, but not in front of
those assholes you came in with.
196
00:20:34,611 --> 00:20:36,769
How old are you, kid?
- Thirty-three.
197
00:20:37,447 --> 00:20:39,571
You're older than the rest of
your class. How come?
198
00:20:39,657 --> 00:20:41,734
Right after college...
- What college?
199
00:20:42,244 --> 00:20:43,489
St John's.
200
00:20:44,163 --> 00:20:45,954
Right after St John's,
I joined the force...
201
00:20:45,998 --> 00:20:47,824
but I was trying to get
my law degree at night.
202
00:20:48,625 --> 00:20:50,666
I was working three shifts
it took a long time.
203
00:20:52,170 --> 00:20:53,499
Do you hear that?
204
00:20:54,214 --> 00:21:00,502
Not like you, Eli. No ivy walls, no cute
little co-eds with high tits, tight asses.
205
00:21:02,014 --> 00:21:05,383
Eli here, his folks have a private seat
reserved for family members...
206
00:21:05,476 --> 00:21:06,721
at Harvard Law School.
207
00:21:06,977 --> 00:21:09,515
Morgy's still angry I didn't have to
go to City College.
208
00:21:09,606 --> 00:21:12,476
You're goddamn right: in this office,
it pays to know the street.
209
00:21:14,402 --> 00:21:17,818
You know the street, kid.
- I know the street.
210
00:21:18,781 --> 00:21:20,240
- I'll bet you do.
211
00:21:23,327 --> 00:21:24,951
Okay.
212
00:21:27,998 --> 00:21:32,577
Sean, you know why you're here?
213
00:21:34,129 --> 00:21:37,582
Not really, Mr. Morgenstern.
- Morgy.
214
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:39,710
Morgy, you're being very kind.
215
00:21:40,011 --> 00:21:44,506
It's not in my character
I always want something in return.
216
00:21:45,057 --> 00:21:48,343
Right, Eli? You don't mind if I call
you Eli, right?
217
00:21:48,436 --> 00:21:50,513
Elihu, I don't know,
it's almost hard for me to say.
218
00:21:50,604 --> 00:21:53,013
But Eli, it's more Hamish.
219
00:21:53,732 --> 00:21:56,983
Hamish, it's a word of my people. Means...
- Cozy.
220
00:21:57,736 --> 00:22:02,732
To feel at home with,
it's why your people use chintz. Sean...
221
00:22:04,077 --> 00:22:07,991
When we capture Jordan, and we will,
he's going to be tried.
222
00:22:08,082 --> 00:22:10,239
It's the easiest case
this office will ever have.
223
00:22:10,498 --> 00:22:12,955
He left one empty gun behind
his prints are on it.
224
00:22:13,002 --> 00:22:14,282
I'll bet you whatever you want...
225
00:22:14,337 --> 00:22:17,586
ballistics will find bullets in one of
those four cops that came from that gun.
226
00:22:17,965 --> 00:22:22,674
He's the worst dope dealer in Harlem.
A murderer of his own people. A monster.
227
00:22:22,761 --> 00:22:26,711
As I say, easiest case this office will
ever have. I hope they get him alive.
228
00:22:28,559 --> 00:22:31,181
'Cause I want him put on trial
by this office.
229
00:22:33,231 --> 00:22:35,104
And you know who the prosecutor's
going to be?
230
00:22:38,487 --> 00:22:40,941
You Sean you're going to try him.
231
00:22:43,116 --> 00:22:44,907
That's right: you, Sean.
232
00:22:47,537 --> 00:22:49,743
You're looking at me like I'm crazy.
233
00:22:50,248 --> 00:22:53,284
Morgy, with apologies to you, Sean...
234
00:22:54,419 --> 00:22:57,206
Morgy, this is a giant case.
235
00:22:57,713 --> 00:23:01,248
Sean has never tried anything like this,
in size or importance.
236
00:23:01,675 --> 00:23:04,926
Mr. Morgenstern, Morgy,
Mr. Harrinson's right.
237
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:07,712
I mean, I'm new at this.
A mistake could ruin the case.
238
00:23:07,807 --> 00:23:10,297
There's no problem here
my son could win this case.
239
00:23:10,392 --> 00:23:12,801
And he's not out of high school.
And is stupid.
240
00:23:13,396 --> 00:23:15,472
This case isn't complicated.
241
00:23:15,564 --> 00:23:17,522
Morgy, are you serious?
242
00:23:17,567 --> 00:23:19,939
You can always tell when I make a joke.
I'm the guy who laughs loudest.
243
00:23:20,111 --> 00:23:22,020
Sir... Morgy...
- Look, kid:
244
00:23:23,489 --> 00:23:26,693
Whose father is laying up there with
tubes coming out of every hole he's got?
245
00:23:26,868 --> 00:23:30,532
Whose blood is flowing in his veins,
now, this minute?
246
00:23:31,414 --> 00:23:33,490
And who put him there?
247
00:23:34,751 --> 00:23:35,866
Case closed.
248
00:23:35,961 --> 00:23:39,910
Food is here. Shall I bring it in?
- No, put it in DiAngelo's office.
249
00:23:40,006 --> 00:23:44,252
Kid, go eat. There's a couch in there.
DiAngelo's in Florida on vacation.
250
00:23:44,344 --> 00:23:48,341
Eat, grab some kip. I'll wake you
if there's any word from the hospital.
251
00:23:49,682 --> 00:23:52,387
You got a career-making case coming up.
- Thank you.
252
00:23:59,943 --> 00:24:01,271
Why are you doing this?
253
00:24:02,445 --> 00:24:08,281
He's at the top of his class.
I don't know. I got a feeling about him.
254
00:24:10,079 --> 00:24:11,536
You mean that?
255
00:24:13,540 --> 00:24:18,783
You bet your guy as I do.
- You realize I'll have to resign?
256
00:24:20,255 --> 00:24:21,879
So? Resign.
257
00:24:22,299 --> 00:24:24,836
Morgy, I'm Senior Trial Counsel.
258
00:24:25,385 --> 00:24:27,461
Turning this over to anybody but me
is an insult...
259
00:24:27,512 --> 00:24:29,755
that's incredibly damaging to me,
to my career.
260
00:24:30,057 --> 00:24:33,472
Turning it over to an ADA with eight
months experience's more than insulting.
261
00:24:33,559 --> 00:24:37,509
It's shocking, humiliating, unacceptable.
- Listen to me you prick.
262
00:24:37,897 --> 00:24:41,182
You think I don't know what's going on?
The walls have ears, my friend.
263
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:44,562
Those little planted stories in
the papers? Morgenstern is old...
264
00:24:44,654 --> 00:24:47,441
Morgenstern's has got heart problems.
Morgenstern's lost his touch.
265
00:24:47,531 --> 00:24:51,482
That's your work, Eli.
You and that goddamn PR firm you hired.
266
00:24:51,578 --> 00:24:55,492
And you thought I didn't know? I got
lots of friends, Eli. People owe me.
267
00:24:55,957 --> 00:24:58,033
You're going against me in the primary.
268
00:24:58,168 --> 00:25:00,125
If I whip your ass, and I'll...
269
00:25:00,212 --> 00:25:01,587
you'll return to the party
of your people...
270
00:25:01,630 --> 00:25:03,208
and make the run against me that way.
271
00:25:03,257 --> 00:25:06,376
And you think I'm to hand you a career
making case so you can destroy me?
272
00:25:06,468 --> 00:25:08,544
What do you think, I'm an idiot,
you momser?
273
00:25:08,762 --> 00:25:10,553
That's a word of my people.
274
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,182
You want to know what it means?
275
00:25:12,682 --> 00:25:14,640
Come here...
Bastard.
276
00:25:18,481 --> 00:25:20,768
So, if he lives...
277
00:25:21,691 --> 00:25:24,098
you've got your hero cop as a witness,
278
00:25:24,193 --> 00:25:28,025
being questioned by
his heroic self-made son.
279
00:25:28,114 --> 00:25:30,736
You've got Rivera, Oprah,
280
00:25:30,993 --> 00:25:35,738
maybe even Charlie Rose explaining
how you made this heart-warming choice.
281
00:25:36,790 --> 00:25:38,498
Do you think I'm an idiot?
282
00:25:38,958 --> 00:25:41,034
Let me give you
three words of my people.
283
00:25:41,629 --> 00:25:43,004
Go fuck yourself.
284
00:25:45,507 --> 00:25:47,002
Up your ass.
285
00:26:08,655 --> 00:26:09,686
Hey.
286
00:26:13,452 --> 00:26:14,946
How you doing, Nails?
287
00:26:17,664 --> 00:26:19,123
Nails?
288
00:26:21,376 --> 00:26:26,168
Nails. I used to call you that,
remember? A long time ago.
289
00:26:28,383 --> 00:26:29,581
Nails?
290
00:26:32,388 --> 00:26:34,676
Remember?
Whenever you wanted me to do something.
291
00:26:36,392 --> 00:26:39,013
You used to say:
"Nail it, son".
292
00:26:41,648 --> 00:26:44,933
As long as I can remember.
You'd pitch me a ball in the park...
293
00:26:45,860 --> 00:26:51,281
you'd say: "Here, nail it, son".
Remember?
294
00:26:52,658 --> 00:26:55,860
Had a tough exam:
"Nail it, Seano"
295
00:26:58,496 --> 00:26:59,955
I liked it.
296
00:27:00,582 --> 00:27:04,876
Never said it to anybody else.
That's why I called you that.
297
00:27:05,671 --> 00:27:07,414
I got it.
298
00:27:07,464 --> 00:27:09,421
- Good, Pop.
- Remember.
299
00:27:10,677 --> 00:27:13,213
I liked you calling me that.
300
00:27:20,728 --> 00:27:22,637
Something terrific has happened.
301
00:27:29,236 --> 00:27:32,936
When they get Washington, Pop, guess
who's going to prosecute him?
302
00:27:37,203 --> 00:27:38,483
It's me, Pop.
303
00:27:42,123 --> 00:27:44,829
Whole career opening up.
304
00:27:53,343 --> 00:27:57,342
Guess who the chief witness is going
to be, Pop?
305
00:27:57,723 --> 00:28:01,175
You.
First on the scene
306
00:28:02,562 --> 00:28:06,939
First to go down. You're going to be on
the stand and am to ask the questions
307
00:28:09,485 --> 00:28:11,276
My God, Sean.
308
00:28:13,198 --> 00:28:17,526
Everything your mother and I worked for.
- I know that.
309
00:28:21,371 --> 00:28:23,199
It's going to happen Pop.
310
00:28:30,630 --> 00:28:32,375
They're kicking me out
311
00:28:35,260 --> 00:28:38,297
You get some rest, okay?
- Sean,
312
00:28:42,811 --> 00:28:45,051
Nail the son-of-a-bitch.
313
00:28:49,317 --> 00:28:51,025
I will, Pop.
314
00:28:57,825 --> 00:28:59,617
I love you.
315
00:29:25,060 --> 00:29:28,097
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
- Morning, Sam.
316
00:29:29,315 --> 00:29:31,225
I have an announcement to make
317
00:29:32,986 --> 00:29:37,279
I have agreed to defend
Jordan Washington.
318
00:29:39,075 --> 00:29:42,693
So you know where he is?
- Yes, yes, I know where he is.
319
00:29:42,955 --> 00:29:47,166
I want to arrange for a quiet surrender
to the District Attorney's office.
320
00:29:48,209 --> 00:29:50,831
How and when did you contact
each other?
321
00:29:51,128 --> 00:29:53,750
Through an intermediary, Don.
- Talking about defense...
322
00:29:54,048 --> 00:29:57,383
What possible defense do you plan to
offer in this case?
323
00:29:58,428 --> 00:30:01,464
You working for the DA's office, Bill?
Your paper certainly does.
324
00:30:01,556 --> 00:30:04,511
You're usually so willing to talk, Sam.
Why are you being so coy?
325
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,097
No, no, you're all going to have to
just wait for the trial.
326
00:30:07,186 --> 00:30:10,353
And let me assure you
that we want a trial.
327
00:30:11,691 --> 00:30:16,233
In fact... Emily, would you send
Mr. Washington in, please.
328
00:30:18,197 --> 00:30:20,274
You've had him here the whole time?
How long?
329
00:30:20,367 --> 00:30:22,359
Does the DA know that he's here?
330
00:30:28,250 --> 00:30:30,242
Jordan, now's your chance to make
a statement:
331
00:30:30,293 --> 00:30:32,120
What's the plea going to be?
332
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,880
My client will not answer
any questions.
333
00:30:38,385 --> 00:30:41,255
Would you take off your shirt and
lower your trousers, please?
334
00:30:50,397 --> 00:30:54,476
Notice, ladies and gentlemen,
that he is completely unmarked.
335
00:30:54,609 --> 00:30:58,820
Turn around, please.
There are no bruises, no breaks of skin.
336
00:30:58,904 --> 00:31:03,732
I'd like you to notice the kidney area,
which is a favorite police target...
337
00:31:04,119 --> 00:31:07,986
and also the buttocks and the genitals.
Thank you very much.
338
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,865
We are delivering Jordan
in perfect condition.
339
00:31:12,377 --> 00:31:14,454
We've a car waiting downstairs.
340
00:31:14,504 --> 00:31:16,995
We're going downtown now
to deliver Mr. Washington...
341
00:31:17,256 --> 00:31:18,751
to District Attorney Morgenstern.
342
00:31:19,802 --> 00:31:23,467
We'd like you all to come along
as witnesses, so...
343
00:31:24,097 --> 00:31:27,513
we can all be sure that Mr. Washington
shows up for his first day of trial...
344
00:31:28,101 --> 00:31:31,221
in exactly the same condition
as you see him here today.
345
00:31:40,571 --> 00:31:43,323
He's bringing Washington down here
to surrender.
346
00:31:43,409 --> 00:31:46,078
That fucking Vigoda
just wants to rub our noses in it.
347
00:31:46,410 --> 00:31:48,866
We couldn't capture him.
He surrendered voluntarily.
348
00:31:49,205 --> 00:31:50,830
Well, fuck Vigoda.
349
00:31:50,916 --> 00:31:52,326
Lawrence, you get your men down there
and...
350
00:31:52,626 --> 00:31:55,116
when that car turns into Worth Street
you stop it,
351
00:31:55,210 --> 00:31:57,916
you drag the black son-of-a-bitch
onto the street and cuff him.
352
00:31:58,006 --> 00:32:00,675
I want four officers,
one on each arm, one on each leg...
353
00:32:00,758 --> 00:32:03,595
to drag that man into the building,
and throw him in a fucking cell.
354
00:32:03,678 --> 00:32:05,755
That's what I promised the people
of this city...
355
00:32:05,848 --> 00:32:07,507
and that's what they're going to get.
356
00:32:07,599 --> 00:32:11,549
I'm not going to let that little
commie shyster humiliate this office.
357
00:32:11,895 --> 00:32:16,190
And if he gets in the way, arrest him.
For obstruction of justice.
358
00:32:21,029 --> 00:32:23,106
Here they come.
359
00:32:23,616 --> 00:32:25,738
Wave them through, guys.
Wave them through.
360
00:32:31,998 --> 00:32:34,286
Lieutenant,
I'm surrendering my client.
361
00:32:34,375 --> 00:32:38,077
You're obstructing justice
There is no need for that.
362
00:32:38,379 --> 00:32:40,787
You are obstructing justice.
You.
363
00:32:41,048 --> 00:32:46,886
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Damn it.
Get the cameras over to the car.
364
00:32:49,516 --> 00:32:54,973
This is completely unnecessary and
excessive use of force.
365
00:33:05,323 --> 00:33:07,897
Channel 11's legal expert,
Joshua Field.
366
00:33:07,993 --> 00:33:10,910
Well, District Attorney Morgenstern
has had a disaster.
367
00:33:10,997 --> 00:33:13,534
What was supposed to be a quiet surrender
of Jordan Washington...
368
00:33:13,624 --> 00:33:15,616
turned into a three-ring circus.
369
00:33:15,708 --> 00:33:18,579
There could be grounds
for a change of venue appeal at minimum.
370
00:33:25,719 --> 00:33:29,419
What the hell do you want?
- You've buried yourself.
371
00:33:30,474 --> 00:33:31,885
I've come to gloat.
372
00:33:33,226 --> 00:33:35,635
You know as well as I,
Vigoda's a great attorney.
373
00:33:35,729 --> 00:33:39,264
If he's defending Washington,
you've got something to worry about.
374
00:33:40,108 --> 00:33:41,686
That's beside the fact...
375
00:33:41,776 --> 00:33:44,268
you'll have every black militant
and left-wing group in the city
376
00:33:44,363 --> 00:33:46,439
blocking every bridge,
disrupting every highway and...
377
00:33:46,532 --> 00:33:49,652
screaming police brutality
under your window every night...
378
00:33:49,744 --> 00:33:52,115
when you're trying to get some sleep.
And...
379
00:33:52,413 --> 00:33:55,615
he'll eat your hero-cop lawyer alive.
380
00:33:56,500 --> 00:33:57,781
Fuck you.
381
00:33:57,835 --> 00:34:02,331
I'm withdrawing my resignation.
Thanks for taking your time accepting it.
382
00:34:02,673 --> 00:34:06,006
You, my Hebraic friend,
are in trouble on this case and...
383
00:34:06,092 --> 00:34:10,588
I can't wait to see you take the fall.
Good night.
384
00:34:15,644 --> 00:34:16,723
Just ran riot.
385
00:34:27,072 --> 00:34:29,908
This is Liam Casey.
Please leave a message.
386
00:34:30,493 --> 00:34:33,944
Hey, Pop, I hope this means you're
sleeping, not out dancing somewhere.
387
00:34:33,996 --> 00:34:36,073
Tomorrow's the big day. Wish me luck.
388
00:34:43,506 --> 00:34:45,084
Hey, Morgy,
this is Sean.
389
00:34:46,259 --> 00:34:48,963
I just call to say how much I appreciate
everything you've done for me...
390
00:34:49,011 --> 00:34:51,087
and that I won't let you down.
391
00:34:58,646 --> 00:35:00,934
Mr. Casey your opening statement.
392
00:35:15,830 --> 00:35:18,285
Your honor, ladies and gentlemen of
the jury, I'm going to be very brief.
393
00:35:20,460 --> 00:35:22,831
This city just recently buried
three police officers.
394
00:35:25,757 --> 00:35:28,212
A fourth is recovering from
three bullet wounds.
395
00:35:30,136 --> 00:35:34,550
One of the dead officers was shot
by another unidentified officer...
396
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,512
because of the confusion created
by the defendant's actions.
397
00:35:39,103 --> 00:35:42,223
The other two dead officers
and the wounded police officer...
398
00:35:42,314 --> 00:35:44,389
had bullets in their bodies
that came from...
399
00:35:44,942 --> 00:35:47,231
the defendant's gun.
It's that simple.
400
00:35:48,028 --> 00:35:51,314
The case against the defendant
is defined by three gravestones...
401
00:35:51,406 --> 00:35:53,150
and a set of crutches.
402
00:35:54,911 --> 00:35:58,326
I've no doubt of our proof and
I've no doubt of your eventual verdict
403
00:35:58,831 --> 00:36:00,373
Well, thank you.
404
00:36:00,917 --> 00:36:03,075
Mr. Vigoda.
- Your honor,
405
00:36:03,795 --> 00:36:07,044
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
Mr. Casey has stated the facts...
406
00:36:07,132 --> 00:36:10,085
and we don't dispute
one word of what he said.
407
00:36:11,344 --> 00:36:16,931
However, you have to be crazy
to shoot three cops...
408
00:36:17,767 --> 00:36:21,183
and Jordan Washington
is not crazy.
409
00:36:23,524 --> 00:36:27,602
What Mr. Casey has left out is that
my client was fighting for his life.
410
00:36:28,861 --> 00:36:34,152
What my client has left out is that
my client was going to be executed.
411
00:36:36,118 --> 00:36:38,906
What Mr. Casey
has left out...
412
00:36:40,122 --> 00:36:45,627
is that cops from three precincts,
the six-four, six-five and seven-four,
413
00:36:45,712 --> 00:36:51,085
were in business with my client and
had been for years.
414
00:36:53,011 --> 00:36:59,464
And, as in so many businesses,
there was a falling out among partners.
415
00:37:00,352 --> 00:37:04,812
Somebody was offering a better price
for the protection services...
416
00:37:04,856 --> 00:37:06,932
that these precincts were providing...
417
00:37:07,192 --> 00:37:11,689
When my client refused
to go along with that new price,
418
00:37:11,739 --> 00:37:13,813
it was decided that he had to go.
419
00:37:16,367 --> 00:37:21,160
Why do you think three precincts
responded to that call.
420
00:37:22,874 --> 00:37:27,202
J. Washington knew what was happening
when he heard footsteps in the hall.
421
00:37:27,378 --> 00:37:30,083
And he was not going to sit idly by...
422
00:37:30,172 --> 00:37:33,293
and wait for his executioners
to destroy him.
423
00:37:33,343 --> 00:37:35,134
Now, it is true:
424
00:37:35,178 --> 00:37:37,669
Jordan Washington fired
through that door.
425
00:37:38,347 --> 00:37:41,882
And it is true that bullets
from my client's gun...
426
00:37:42,143 --> 00:37:46,307
took the lives of two more
New York City cops.
427
00:37:46,438 --> 00:37:52,145
But their dying began well before
that tragic night.
428
00:37:53,238 --> 00:37:58,659
Their deaths began on the day that
corrupt cops...
429
00:37:59,244 --> 00:38:02,328
agreed to protect dope dealing
in Harlem.
430
00:38:07,251 --> 00:38:11,083
Now, I grieve for
those dead policemen.
431
00:38:11,589 --> 00:38:15,919
As far as I know,
they were not part of any conspiracy.
432
00:38:16,011 --> 00:38:20,138
But I cannot let a man go to jail
for the rest of his life...
433
00:38:20,390 --> 00:38:24,553
for doing what is acknowledged
as a man's most basic right:
434
00:38:25,104 --> 00:38:28,056
the right of self-defense.
435
00:38:32,694 --> 00:38:33,725
Thank you.
436
00:38:39,492 --> 00:38:42,066
Vigoda's witness list includes 17 cops
from the six-four, the six-five...
437
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:43,780
and the seven-four.
438
00:38:43,873 --> 00:38:47,573
What do you mean, don't worry?
- Because it's bullshit it's a theory.
439
00:38:47,626 --> 00:38:48,373
Theories are crap.
440
00:38:48,585 --> 00:38:52,416
He wants to confuse and divert the jury.
Don't let him divert you.
441
00:38:52,505 --> 00:38:55,626
Three dead cops, one seriously wounded.
That's your case.
442
00:38:55,676 --> 00:38:59,293
Cops on the take, Morgy.
- No kidding? Thanks for the information.
443
00:38:59,888 --> 00:39:01,963
Washington had to be paying somebody.
444
00:39:02,057 --> 00:39:04,974
Will you stop worrying about it?
That's another question. Take one.
445
00:39:05,060 --> 00:39:07,137
That's another trial.
This one is about...
446
00:39:07,228 --> 00:39:09,137
Three dead cops, one seriously wounded.
I know.
447
00:39:09,230 --> 00:39:13,180
Oh, Eileen, I told you not spicy.
Damn.
448
00:39:13,861 --> 00:39:16,731
So you were completely occupied
with Detective Casey...
449
00:39:16,822 --> 00:39:19,823
and you really knew nothing...
about what was going on in the streets?
450
00:39:20,450 --> 00:39:22,242
Yes, sir, that's correct.
451
00:39:22,786 --> 00:39:25,703
Thank you, detective.
Your witness.
452
00:39:27,541 --> 00:39:29,368
Detective Allegretto, have you ever
heard of the name Kleinhoff?
453
00:39:30,419 --> 00:39:32,875
Who?
- Kleinhoff.
454
00:39:34,048 --> 00:39:36,882
No, not that I can recall.
- Thank you. That's all.
455
00:39:38,217 --> 00:39:39,961
The witness is excused.
456
00:39:43,599 --> 00:39:45,259
Detective Liam Casey
457
00:39:53,984 --> 00:39:57,933
Do you swear to tell the truth, the
whole truth and nothing but the truth?
458
00:39:58,279 --> 00:39:59,311
I do.
459
00:40:20,886 --> 00:40:22,464
Good morning, Detective Casey
460
00:40:25,140 --> 00:40:26,420
Morning Counselor.
461
00:40:28,602 --> 00:40:32,682
You're assigned to seven-four precinct?
- Yes, sir.
462
00:40:32,731 --> 00:40:34,973
How long have you been there?
- Nine years.
463
00:40:35,067 --> 00:40:37,818
You've been a detective for how long?
- Twenty years.
464
00:40:38,070 --> 00:40:41,070
And how long have you been a policeman?
- Thirty-six years.
465
00:40:41,156 --> 00:40:42,900
Thirty-six years.
466
00:40:42,991 --> 00:40:45,067
So, you're well past
your eligibility for retirement?
467
00:40:45,161 --> 00:40:47,237
Oh, they'll have to carry me out.
468
00:40:47,538 --> 00:40:49,162
In fact they almost did.
469
00:40:51,834 --> 00:40:54,206
Can you tell us how you became involved
with the defendant?
470
00:40:55,462 --> 00:40:57,621
We all knew him: Jordan Washington.
471
00:40:57,714 --> 00:41:03,836
I mean, the word on the street was.
kingpin, top dog, numero uno, M.M.
472
00:41:03,930 --> 00:41:06,930
M. M?
- Yeah, Mean...
473
00:41:07,475 --> 00:41:09,017
Yes?
474
00:41:10,729 --> 00:41:14,178
Mean Motherfucker.
That's what we called him: M.M.
475
00:41:15,357 --> 00:41:18,025
And how did you specifically
get involved in the pursuit of him?
476
00:41:18,944 --> 00:41:22,692
Well, me and my partner, that's Joey
Allegretto, we have us a snitch.
477
00:41:23,073 --> 00:41:25,647
Naturally, I can't tell you his name.
- We understand.
478
00:41:25,742 --> 00:41:29,822
One day, six-seven months ago...
we learned that the defendant...
479
00:41:29,914 --> 00:41:32,072
if we got lucky,
we'd see him coming in or out.
480
00:41:32,916 --> 00:41:36,036
So you cased that house for two and
a half weeks, all day and all night?
481
00:41:36,128 --> 00:41:37,504
Damn near.
482
00:41:39,381 --> 00:41:42,502
Oh, I mean, a couple of times
we'd miss some hours.
483
00:41:42,802 --> 00:41:45,472
Once we both got sick from
some bad-hero sandwiches.
484
00:41:45,554 --> 00:41:47,345
Things like that.
485
00:41:48,224 --> 00:41:53,930
Didn't you ask for help from precinct
- In narcotics, you got to be careful.
486
00:41:55,189 --> 00:41:57,265
On a good lead,
you don't want too much ord out.
487
00:41:57,316 --> 00:41:59,024
What did you then do?
488
00:41:59,777 --> 00:42:02,267
We got lucky.
Sunday night the snitch showed.
489
00:42:02,362 --> 00:42:06,491
That's Sunday 13 October?
- Yes, sir. So now, we're in business.
490
00:42:07,241 --> 00:42:10,529
So then, you had absolutely no knowledge
of what was going on outside?
491
00:42:10,704 --> 00:42:12,781
The next thing I saw was you...
492
00:42:12,873 --> 00:42:15,329
standing by my bed
in ICU at Metropolitan.
493
00:42:16,543 --> 00:42:19,877
Thank you, Detective.
Your witness, Counselor.
494
00:42:21,131 --> 00:42:23,255
Good afternoon, Detective Casey.
495
00:42:25,219 --> 00:42:27,377
You on sick leave now?
- Yes, sir.
496
00:42:27,471 --> 00:42:29,013
What's the prognosis?
497
00:42:29,099 --> 00:42:31,386
Pretty good: six to eight months,
I'll be as good as new.
498
00:42:31,476 --> 00:42:32,720
I'm glad to hear it.
499
00:42:35,230 --> 00:42:37,518
I only have two or three areas
that I'd like to cover.
500
00:42:38,024 --> 00:42:40,894
You had a warrant?
- Yes.
501
00:42:41,611 --> 00:42:45,774
Now, something that you said
has made me curious.
502
00:42:45,823 --> 00:42:48,528
This thing about
not getting any help...
503
00:42:48,616 --> 00:42:51,108
during what must have been
an arduous...
504
00:42:51,203 --> 00:42:54,406
even tortuous surveillance.
505
00:42:54,498 --> 00:42:55,909
You testified...
506
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,285
"On a good lead,
you don't want too much word out".
507
00:43:01,297 --> 00:43:04,547
What did you mean by that?
- Narcotics are complicated.
508
00:43:04,842 --> 00:43:07,713
The fewer people know about
what you're doing, the better it is.
509
00:43:08,387 --> 00:43:11,139
Does that apply to your fellow officers?
- Objection, you honor.
510
00:43:11,223 --> 00:43:13,217
The charge here is murder,
not police corruption.
511
00:43:13,268 --> 00:43:15,390
The defense may tie the two together,
your honor.
512
00:43:16,228 --> 00:43:19,479
A line of questioning you opened up,
cancelled, overruled.
513
00:43:19,566 --> 00:43:21,688
You may answer, Detective Casey.
514
00:43:22,652 --> 00:43:23,980
You have to be careful.
515
00:43:26,823 --> 00:43:31,984
I don't understand. You mean narcotics
information is a two-way street?
516
00:43:32,746 --> 00:43:35,318
That police officers can be informed
about dealers...
517
00:43:36,457 --> 00:43:38,995
and dealers can be informed
about police officers?
518
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,914
I'm not sure I get the question.
519
00:43:43,006 --> 00:43:46,754
Well, then...
regretfully, I must be blunt.
520
00:43:49,304 --> 00:43:51,925
Were you afraid that
if you involved any other officers...
521
00:43:52,015 --> 00:43:55,134
one of them might get word
to Jordan Washington?
522
00:43:55,601 --> 00:43:57,475
Like I said, you got to be careful.
523
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,356
I'm sorry to press you, Detective,
but I must ask you to answer...
524
00:44:00,439 --> 00:44:02,729
either yes or no.
525
00:44:04,820 --> 00:44:05,851
Yes.
526
00:44:07,822 --> 00:44:11,986
Since you didn't share this information
with men of your own precinct...
527
00:44:12,077 --> 00:44:14,614
you didn't share it with officers
in any other precinct.
528
00:44:15,538 --> 00:44:18,540
Am I correct?
Yes or no.
529
00:44:19,835 --> 00:44:21,661
I shared it with nobody.
530
00:44:22,503 --> 00:44:26,631
Except your partner.
- Except my partner.
531
00:44:29,261 --> 00:44:30,884
I just have one more question.
532
00:44:32,137 --> 00:44:33,715
You ever heard of the name Kleinhoff?
533
00:44:36,351 --> 00:44:40,431
Not that I know of.
- He's an ex-police officer.
534
00:44:41,064 --> 00:44:44,183
In fact, the records indicate that...
535
00:44:44,276 --> 00:44:47,644
both of you served in the same precinct
for a period of some two weeks.
536
00:44:48,572 --> 00:44:51,691
It was a long time ago,
about twenty years.
537
00:44:52,325 --> 00:44:55,444
Kleinhoff,
does that name sound familiar?
538
00:44:56,246 --> 00:45:00,706
No, counselor.
Like you said, a long time ago.
539
00:45:02,585 --> 00:45:06,204
I understand.
Thank you, that's all.
540
00:45:06,297 --> 00:45:09,915
7-4-7. Allegretto. We got a fix on
Jordan Washington: 1-1-1...
541
00:45:10,009 --> 00:45:11,836
Shall I play it for you again,
Lieutenant?
542
00:45:12,553 --> 00:45:15,922
We hear Detective Allegretto very
clearly calling into the 74th precinct.
543
00:45:16,015 --> 00:45:18,803
Why did men from the 64th precinct
respond?
544
00:45:19,643 --> 00:45:23,392
They thought more help might be needed.
- More help.
545
00:45:24,357 --> 00:45:28,022
But just a few seconds had elapsed
before your men responded. Why?
546
00:45:28,111 --> 00:45:30,399
How did your men know
that more help was needed?
547
00:45:30,697 --> 00:45:34,647
Did I hear you correctly, Sergeant?
Men of the six-five responded...
548
00:45:34,743 --> 00:45:36,818
because
an "officer down" call had come in?
549
00:45:37,204 --> 00:45:38,235
Yes, sir.
550
00:45:38,497 --> 00:45:40,952
But the "officer down" call
did not go out...
551
00:45:40,999 --> 00:45:44,000
until almost two minutes after
the original call came in...
552
00:45:44,044 --> 00:45:46,452
and men from the six-five
were already on their way.
553
00:45:46,546 --> 00:45:50,710
How do you explain that?
You drove, and I quote:
554
00:45:51,176 --> 00:45:54,876
"like a bat out of hell".
Why?
555
00:45:55,431 --> 00:45:57,506
It was a big collar.
We wanted in on it.
556
00:45:59,183 --> 00:46:01,640
Finally, someone gives me
a straight answer.
557
00:46:03,313 --> 00:46:07,014
You were how old at this point?
- Six or seven.
558
00:46:08,567 --> 00:46:12,482
And this was your fifth foster home?
- I don't know, I lost count.
559
00:46:13,281 --> 00:46:15,487
What about brothers and sisters,
Mr. Washington?
560
00:46:15,575 --> 00:46:20,997
Five of us we got split up early.
No foster home wanted five kids.
561
00:46:21,497 --> 00:46:23,824
You were the youngest?
- That's right.
562
00:46:26,085 --> 00:46:27,829
Where was your mother
during this time?
563
00:46:30,215 --> 00:46:34,427
All over.
Mama was all over.
564
00:46:35,637 --> 00:46:38,093
She was a user,
an addict.
565
00:46:40,851 --> 00:46:44,719
What happened to her?
- I don't know.
566
00:46:47,273 --> 00:46:50,724
Father?
- I never knew him.
567
00:46:51,570 --> 00:46:55,567
How old were you, Mr. Washington,
when you hit the streets permanently?
568
00:46:56,116 --> 00:46:59,070
Maybe ten.
- How did you live?
569
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,236
I became a runner.
570
00:47:02,580 --> 00:47:04,490
A drug runner?
- That's right.
571
00:47:05,418 --> 00:47:09,747
Could you give us a description of
how you lived over the next few years?
572
00:47:12,508 --> 00:47:15,508
I kind moved up
I learned where the money goes.
573
00:47:15,594 --> 00:47:18,002
Then I got busted and
did two and a half in Elmira.
574
00:47:18,305 --> 00:47:21,307
And when you got out?
- Carved out a piece of turf for myself.
575
00:47:22,184 --> 00:47:26,930
Took it, one block at a time.
Nobody's stopping me.
576
00:47:27,940 --> 00:47:30,775
So now you were a full-time dealer.
- That's right.
577
00:47:33,111 --> 00:47:35,187
In your experience, Mr. Washington...
578
00:47:36,072 --> 00:47:39,987
What's the most important thing
a full-time dealer needs?
579
00:47:40,035 --> 00:47:41,862
Three different things:
580
00:47:41,912 --> 00:47:45,032
a place to buy it, a place to sell it,
and protection.
581
00:47:45,332 --> 00:47:50,574
Protection from other dealers?
- No, see, I takes care of that myself.
582
00:47:50,670 --> 00:47:53,126
Protection from what?
- All of this shit.
583
00:47:54,675 --> 00:47:58,803
How do you protect yourself from this?
- Well, how do you do anything?
584
00:48:01,223 --> 00:48:02,254
Money.
585
00:48:05,435 --> 00:48:09,386
Who is Kurt Kleinhoff?
- Ex-cop. My bag man.
586
00:48:09,482 --> 00:48:11,973
Meaning the one who pays everyone off?
- That's right.
587
00:48:12,860 --> 00:48:15,815
Can you tell us how that works?
- First of the month...
588
00:48:15,905 --> 00:48:18,859
Kleinhoff go out with a little black
satchel, look like a doctor bag...
589
00:48:18,950 --> 00:48:22,033
stops by the bar, the precinct and
the pizza parlor and pays off cops.
590
00:48:22,119 --> 00:48:24,526
So much for the patrolman,
so much for the sergeant...
591
00:48:24,622 --> 00:48:27,955
lieutenant, captain...
592
00:48:28,667 --> 00:48:32,285
How much?
- Six hundred grand a year.
593
00:48:34,340 --> 00:48:36,416
How much?
594
00:48:36,467 --> 00:48:39,468
Six hundred grand a year: fifty grand
a month, three precincts to pay off.
595
00:48:39,971 --> 00:48:43,221
And those precincts were?
- Six-four, Six-five, Seven-four.
596
00:48:44,266 --> 00:48:46,342
Could you give us the names
of the officers involved?
597
00:48:46,435 --> 00:48:49,270
Objection, your honor. The defendant
was not present at the alleged pay-off.
598
00:48:49,356 --> 00:48:51,811
We must not take his word on this,
he must not name names.
599
00:48:51,900 --> 00:48:53,144
Sustained.
600
00:48:55,694 --> 00:49:00,108
Who is Carlos Alvarez?
- Guy trying to take over my operation.
601
00:49:00,199 --> 00:49:02,773
How did he try?
- See, he moved the ante up.
602
00:49:02,869 --> 00:49:05,704
He offered the cops six hundred
and fifty grand a year.
603
00:49:05,788 --> 00:49:08,908
So my police friends tried
to shake me down for another fifty.
604
00:49:08,999 --> 00:49:12,617
I said "No, get the fuck out of here.
Once that shit starts, I'm finished.
605
00:49:12,711 --> 00:49:16,579
So I said no, and I figured
I'd take care of Alvarez my own way.
606
00:49:16,965 --> 00:49:20,003
And did you?
- No, see, I never got the chance.
607
00:49:20,552 --> 00:49:22,710
Alvarez figured
I'd be coming on after him...
608
00:49:23,638 --> 00:49:25,098
so he tell the cops and...
609
00:49:25,140 --> 00:49:27,430
they don't want to give up that fifty
so they come on after me.
610
00:49:27,518 --> 00:49:31,136
And that was the night of October 13th?
- Yeah.
611
00:49:32,231 --> 00:49:34,804
But I knew what was happening
maybe a month before that.
612
00:49:36,486 --> 00:49:38,561
Kleinhoff say:
613
00:49:39,155 --> 00:49:42,571
"First time they find you,
they coming on after you".
614
00:49:44,369 --> 00:49:47,654
We're perfectly aware that you grew up
amid conditions that were heartbreaking.
615
00:49:48,873 --> 00:49:52,243
Let me ask you something. Remember
the first time you hit somebody?
616
00:49:55,546 --> 00:49:58,666
No. It seems like I'm always hitting
or being hit.
617
00:49:58,757 --> 00:50:01,545
Oh yes, because you say in
your testimony here, and I quote:
618
00:50:01,635 --> 00:50:05,218
"I've carved out a piece of turf
for myself I took it" end quote.
619
00:50:05,305 --> 00:50:07,133
That must have taken a lot of hitting,
didn't it?
620
00:50:10,228 --> 00:50:11,259
Did it?
621
00:50:12,063 --> 00:50:16,559
When you were expanding your drug empire
and I quote: "one block at a time"...
622
00:50:16,651 --> 00:50:18,275
did you ever kill anybody?
623
00:50:18,319 --> 00:50:20,395
Your honor, I am instructing my client
not to answer that question...
624
00:50:20,446 --> 00:50:22,321
on the grounds of self-incrimination.
625
00:50:22,364 --> 00:50:24,440
Are you pleading the Fifth Amendment,
Mr. Washington?
626
00:50:27,787 --> 00:50:30,195
Yes.
- Did you ever order anyone killed?
627
00:50:30,248 --> 00:50:32,122
Same instructions, your honor.
Fifth Amendment.
628
00:50:32,167 --> 00:50:35,701
When you were in jail for assault with
deadly weapon, did you kill anybody?
629
00:50:35,753 --> 00:50:37,830
Fifth Amendment.
- When your turf was firmly established,
630
00:50:37,922 --> 00:50:41,873
when you were now numero uno, top dog,
kingpin, M.M., did you order anyone...
631
00:50:41,969 --> 00:50:44,339
Fifth fucking Amendment.
- Enough of this.
632
00:50:44,470 --> 00:50:47,424
We'll ask questions and wait for
responses in a civilized way.
633
00:50:47,473 --> 00:50:50,842
Your honor, the prosecutor is bating...
- Sit down, Mr. Vigoda.
634
00:50:50,936 --> 00:50:53,223
I'll run this courtroom with no help
from you nor anyone.
635
00:50:53,771 --> 00:50:56,476
Continue, Mr. Casey.
- Thanks your honor.
636
00:50:56,565 --> 00:51:00,313
Let's go to the night of the shootout.
Sunday, October 13th.
637
00:51:00,737 --> 00:51:04,605
Did you hear Detectives Casey and
Allegretto coming up the stairs?
638
00:51:04,866 --> 00:51:07,108
When you fired fifteen shots
straight at the door...
639
00:51:07,202 --> 00:51:09,277
did you see Detective Casey go down?
640
00:51:09,997 --> 00:51:11,372
The door was there.
641
00:51:11,415 --> 00:51:13,822
But by the end of your fusillade,
the door was in pieces.
642
00:51:13,917 --> 00:51:16,622
Did you see Detective Casey get hit?
- No.
643
00:51:16,795 --> 00:51:19,001
Did you see any blood?
- No.
644
00:51:19,089 --> 00:51:21,295
When you got down to the basement,
did you see two policemen?
645
00:51:21,424 --> 00:51:22,669
Oh, yeah.
646
00:51:22,717 --> 00:51:25,802
Did you see their faces before firing?
- Yeah.
647
00:51:28,307 --> 00:51:31,424
Were they young or old?
- I don't know.
648
00:51:31,642 --> 00:51:33,718
You just said you saw their faces.
649
00:51:34,688 --> 00:51:37,142
Not clear.
- Which is it: yes or no?
650
00:51:38,024 --> 00:51:40,063
I don't know.
651
00:51:40,110 --> 00:51:43,228
When you fired your.357 Magnum,
did you see where the bullets hit?
652
00:51:43,488 --> 00:51:46,939
Where did they hit?
- One in the head and one in the body.
653
00:51:47,033 --> 00:51:49,072
Was there blood?
- Oh, yeah.
654
00:51:49,118 --> 00:51:50,150
Lots of it?
- Yeah.
655
00:51:50,286 --> 00:51:53,204
Let me ask you something.
Did any get on your tiny white sneakers?
656
00:51:53,289 --> 00:51:54,452
Motherfucker.
657
00:51:56,251 --> 00:51:59,537
Remove the defendant.
Remove the defendant.
658
00:52:03,133 --> 00:52:04,675
Get him out of here.
659
00:52:14,979 --> 00:52:16,353
Jury's on the way.
660
00:52:18,856 --> 00:52:22,191
Two hours: good or bad sign?
- Good sign, but who knows?
661
00:52:27,281 --> 00:52:29,690
Guilty on all five charges.
662
00:52:48,345 --> 00:52:53,008
Can you believe this?
- Okay, everybody.
663
00:52:56,644 --> 00:52:58,852
Well did I smell it,
huh?
664
00:53:00,523 --> 00:53:04,853
You all thought I was nuts,
but I knew this kid had it, had it all.
665
00:53:05,446 --> 00:53:08,232
Sean, come on up here. Sean Casey.
- Yeah.
666
00:53:08,739 --> 00:53:09,771
Come on.
667
00:53:16,832 --> 00:53:22,122
A boundless love of the truth and
an instinct for the jugular vein.
668
00:53:22,212 --> 00:53:24,703
That's what makes
a great prosecutor.
669
00:53:26,466 --> 00:53:31,508
And I cannot think of a better moment
to announce my run for re-election.
670
00:53:33,849 --> 00:53:37,431
I'm glad that opposing counsel
has seen fit to join us here tonight.
671
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:39,346
Welcome, come on, welcome.
672
00:53:40,606 --> 00:53:45,232
I may offer Sam Vigoda the chairmanship
of my fund-raising committee.
673
00:53:45,319 --> 00:53:49,447
He should live so long.
All right, have a good time.
674
00:53:53,409 --> 00:53:54,869
Mr. Mayor.
675
00:53:56,662 --> 00:53:59,580
Sir, Sean Casey. Sean,
Mayor Williams.
676
00:53:59,666 --> 00:54:03,533
Congratulations, Mr. Casey. I couldn't
imagine this is your first major case.
677
00:54:03,587 --> 00:54:05,663
Brilliantly done. Brilliantly.
678
00:54:05,797 --> 00:54:07,874
Where's your father?
- He's in the back.
679
00:54:07,924 --> 00:54:10,547
Liam. Over here.
- Mr. Casey.
680
00:54:44,877 --> 00:54:49,090
I never knew I'd be helping
the prosecution.
681
00:54:51,968 --> 00:54:56,630
I'm Peggy Lindstrom.
- Yeah, I know.
682
00:54:56,973 --> 00:55:00,508
We met once in an elevator.
I work for Sam Vigoda.
683
00:55:01,187 --> 00:55:06,429
One of twelve irreplaceable assistants.
- I know that I saw you at the trial.
684
00:55:08,819 --> 00:55:10,017
Sit.
- Hi.
685
00:55:10,112 --> 00:55:12,402
How are you?
- Fine.
686
00:55:16,619 --> 00:55:22,123
I don't know if you can make it erect.
- I think I can.
687
00:55:26,128 --> 00:55:30,755
Classy car.
- I'm lucky: my parents have money.
688
00:55:32,843 --> 00:55:35,464
Where are we going?
- Home.
689
00:55:36,180 --> 00:55:38,636
I live in Queens.
- I don't.
690
00:55:51,612 --> 00:55:53,106
You're a miracle.
691
00:55:53,155 --> 00:55:56,109
I know. But only to people that
I want to like me.
692
00:55:56,825 --> 00:55:58,653
How do you decide?
- Instinct.
693
00:55:59,161 --> 00:56:03,028
I couldn't believe what I was seeing
when you cross-examined Washington.
694
00:56:03,166 --> 00:56:06,700
I knew I was watching
the start of a great career...
695
00:56:06,794 --> 00:56:09,914
I knew that, at the least,
I wanted to get you into bed.
696
00:56:11,090 --> 00:56:15,041
How come you don't wait to be asked?
- I hate that coy bullshit.
697
00:56:15,679 --> 00:56:19,094
I live my life as openly and
as honestly as possible.
698
00:56:19,181 --> 00:56:22,016
You're completely attractive.
- I know.
699
00:56:23,310 --> 00:56:27,558
So now you get 3.00 A.M.
scrambled eggs, I get ice-cream, and...
700
00:56:27,648 --> 00:56:30,649
I hope I'm impressing you enough
so that we can see each other again.
701
00:56:32,195 --> 00:56:34,435
I'm very impressed:
we'll see each other again.
702
00:56:34,947 --> 00:56:39,408
And still...
tonight wasn't casual for me.
703
00:56:43,205 --> 00:56:46,456
Well, it started casual for me.
I was a little loaded.
704
00:56:47,251 --> 00:56:50,502
There's a beautiful and sexy woman,
well, what's there to lose?
705
00:56:56,636 --> 00:56:58,712
Right now, it feels like
the beginning of something.
706
00:57:01,140 --> 00:57:02,552
Can you spend the night?
707
00:57:06,979 --> 00:57:09,849
Impelliteri is setting
the sentencing date tomorrow.
708
00:57:10,149 --> 00:57:11,892
I should show up in my other suit.
709
00:57:11,984 --> 00:57:14,061
See? The first heartbreak already.
710
00:57:14,111 --> 00:57:16,862
I'll make up for it.
- How?
711
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,524
I don't know.
712
00:57:23,204 --> 00:57:25,280
Good eggs.
713
00:57:28,334 --> 00:57:30,410
What did you find?
- Forget about it.
714
00:57:30,461 --> 00:57:32,252
Nothing left of that joker
but a skeleton.
715
00:57:32,296 --> 00:57:34,373
God only knows how long
he's been down there.
716
00:57:34,424 --> 00:57:36,416
Poor kids were crabbing.
717
00:57:36,509 --> 00:57:39,344
One of their lines got snagged.
How do you like that?
718
00:57:50,941 --> 00:57:52,683
On the first charge...
719
00:57:57,821 --> 00:57:59,897
Would you stand,
Mr. Washington?
720
00:58:05,663 --> 00:58:08,118
On the first charge,
the death of Patrolman Finney...
721
00:58:08,207 --> 00:58:11,125
the sentence is
twenty five years to life with no parole.
722
00:58:11,961 --> 00:58:15,460
On the second charge,
the death of Patrolman Katz...
723
00:58:15,549 --> 00:58:18,170
twenty-five years to life, no parole.
724
00:58:19,010 --> 00:58:22,425
On the third charge,
the wounding of Detective Casey...
725
00:58:22,514 --> 00:58:24,590
twenty-five years to life, no parole.
726
00:58:25,266 --> 00:58:27,140
On the fourth and fifth charges...
727
00:58:27,227 --> 00:58:29,979
fifteen to twenty-five years each,
with no parole.
728
00:58:30,063 --> 00:58:32,056
Sentences to run consecutively.
729
00:58:32,148 --> 00:58:33,857
Goodbye, Mr. Washington.
730
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:36,897
You know that floater
you fished out last week?
731
00:58:37,237 --> 00:58:42,610
We finally got an ID on him.
NYPD medical: name of Kleinhoff
732
00:58:42,824 --> 00:58:45,493
And that man is Pat Distefano.
733
00:58:45,660 --> 00:58:49,444
And if we stick together,
we can win it all.
734
00:58:50,416 --> 00:58:54,081
We can win it all.
We got it.
735
00:59:01,718 --> 00:59:03,794
Hell of an acceptance speech.
- Oh, fuck.
736
00:59:03,845 --> 00:59:05,091
Morgy, Morgy.
737
00:59:05,431 --> 00:59:07,589
Turn him over.
Turn him over.
738
00:59:10,978 --> 00:59:12,971
Let's stop fucking around.
739
00:59:13,063 --> 00:59:15,637
Now, I'm sure you've each got somebody.
whose name you'd like to put up.
740
00:59:15,941 --> 00:59:19,393
And we're only two hours away
from the six o'clock news.
741
00:59:19,487 --> 00:59:21,396
Now I've got an idea.
742
00:59:21,572 --> 00:59:23,612
Morgy's in ICU.
743
00:59:24,325 --> 00:59:26,733
I'd like to ask you for prayers
for him tonight.
744
00:59:27,369 --> 00:59:29,741
But we are a party rich in talent.
745
00:59:30,163 --> 00:59:31,990
I would like to place in nomination...
746
00:59:32,457 --> 00:59:36,157
and I would be proud if you accept it
by acclamation...
747
00:59:36,253 --> 00:59:38,874
For the office of District Attorney,
I nominate...
748
00:59:39,048 --> 00:59:41,206
Sean CASEY.
749
01:00:02,571 --> 01:00:07,565
I wish she could've seen it.
I wish she could've heard it.
750
01:00:10,580 --> 01:00:14,116
I sure hope she knows.
- She knows.
751
01:00:16,419 --> 01:00:18,244
Yeah, I think you're right.
752
01:00:19,463 --> 01:00:21,704
She's got to be as proud as I am.
753
01:00:23,676 --> 01:00:26,511
Well, I hope she wasn't disappointed.
- In what?
754
01:00:27,346 --> 01:00:29,422
She always had hopes of me joining
the church.
755
01:00:29,515 --> 01:00:32,006
I know she wanted me to.
- Tempted?
756
01:00:32,601 --> 01:00:37,264
I was.
We were blessed, Pop.
757
01:00:39,942 --> 01:00:41,401
That's the word.
758
01:00:43,904 --> 01:00:45,731
We were blessed.
759
01:00:45,823 --> 01:00:48,659
You got to try it on. Yeah.
- Looking good on you.
760
01:00:48,701 --> 01:00:50,777
Sean, Vigoda on two.
761
01:00:55,500 --> 01:00:56,531
Hello?
762
01:00:56,584 --> 01:00:59,455
I know you're busy,
but it's important that we meet.
763
01:00:59,545 --> 01:01:01,621
Okay, what's good for you?
764
01:01:01,715 --> 01:01:04,251
Well, I'll meet you anytime you want,
but Sean...
765
01:01:04,926 --> 01:01:07,298
someplace where neither of us
can wear a wire.
766
01:01:08,470 --> 01:01:12,136
You heard that the body they fished out
of the river turned out to be Kleinhoff.
767
01:01:15,604 --> 01:01:19,018
If you win, I want you to pursue
that murder.
768
01:01:20,191 --> 01:01:21,983
As soon as you can...
769
01:01:22,067 --> 01:01:24,736
use the Investigation Division
of the DA's office.
770
01:01:25,570 --> 01:01:29,189
Going through any precincts is not
the best way to find what you look for.
771
01:01:29,283 --> 01:01:31,525
Sooner or later you're going to run
into dirty cops.
772
01:01:33,496 --> 01:01:35,654
You're not telling me
you believed your defense?
773
01:01:38,418 --> 01:01:40,458
You heard the tapes,
you heard the testimony.
774
01:01:40,545 --> 01:01:43,961
Total chaos on the street that night.
- All right, Jordan Washington is scum.
775
01:01:49,304 --> 01:01:52,423
Sometimes I just get so sick inside.
776
01:01:54,142 --> 01:01:55,173
So...
777
01:01:57,853 --> 01:01:59,727
so discouraged,
you know?
778
01:02:01,607 --> 01:02:06,519
I feel like we have to just give up
on an entire generation.
779
01:02:08,323 --> 01:02:11,277
Lock them up and throw away the key.
780
01:02:11,367 --> 01:02:14,238
Am I hearing this from
the last of the 60's radicals?
781
01:02:17,373 --> 01:02:18,833
Are you conning me?
782
01:02:23,337 --> 01:02:26,043
Yes to the first and not to the second.
783
01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:32,797
Why'd you take the case?
784
01:02:32,889 --> 01:02:35,925
Because I was after something else.
- What?
785
01:02:36,851 --> 01:02:40,516
Sean,
the first rule of the drug world:
786
01:02:40,772 --> 01:02:44,022
"There can't be that much money around
without dirty cops".
787
01:02:44,108 --> 01:02:46,184
That's what I wanted to get to.
788
01:02:47,903 --> 01:02:49,979
Why?
Who appointed you?
789
01:02:53,827 --> 01:02:55,699
My 15 year old daughter...
790
01:02:57,789 --> 01:02:59,413
when she O.D. ed.
791
01:03:03,837 --> 01:03:06,125
You know when your kid dies
before you...
792
01:03:06,340 --> 01:03:09,210
it's not the natural order of things.
793
01:03:11,762 --> 01:03:14,513
Your whole life changes.
794
01:03:25,942 --> 01:03:30,438
When I was a cop with the 103 in Queens,
four cops got caught on the pad.
795
01:03:31,489 --> 01:03:34,905
It was nothing big:
the usual C-note a month.
796
01:03:38,163 --> 01:03:41,827
But I remember
I was ducking into the station house...
797
01:03:41,917 --> 01:03:44,490
because I didn't want to
get cornered by the reporters.
798
01:03:45,795 --> 01:03:50,505
I didn't want to get caught on camera,
because I was ashamed.
799
01:03:52,719 --> 01:03:55,838
In the meantime those four cops
were being brought in by their buddies...
800
01:03:56,597 --> 01:03:59,006
They had their coats over their hands
so their cuffs wouldn't show
801
01:03:59,100 --> 01:04:01,888
they had their heads ducked down low,
so nobody would recognize them.
802
01:04:05,273 --> 01:04:09,650
I remember feeling I wanted to
pull their heads up by their hair...
803
01:04:11,530 --> 01:04:13,605
so everybody could see.
804
01:04:14,657 --> 01:04:19,200
Because a cop like that...
is the scum of the earth.
805
01:04:21,539 --> 01:04:24,292
You get me real evidence,
I'll follow it wherever it leads.
806
01:04:25,711 --> 01:04:33,007
Wherever?
- Yeah, wherever.
807
01:04:33,927 --> 01:04:36,003
- You're a romantic.
808
01:04:38,806 --> 01:04:40,266
And I think you're blushing.
809
01:04:44,270 --> 01:04:46,940
It's the heat.
- It's not the heat.
810
01:04:47,733 --> 01:04:50,271
You're blushing.
I think I'm going to vote for you.
811
01:04:52,905 --> 01:04:56,654
Your final statement, Mr. Harrison.
You have two minutes.
812
01:04:57,243 --> 01:05:00,278
Though constantly taking
the high moral ground...
813
01:05:00,370 --> 01:05:03,869
Mr. Casey's naivet' keeps trapping him
in the depths of, well...
814
01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:07,373
to put it mildly,
questionable behavior.
815
01:05:07,752 --> 01:05:10,125
He's in the midst of an affair
with someone.
816
01:05:10,630 --> 01:05:13,038
No, no, no. Please, please, listen.
817
01:05:13,132 --> 01:05:15,422
I don't bring this up as a smear.
It's just that...
818
01:05:15,510 --> 01:05:18,428
the person he's involved with,
works for a law firm...
819
01:05:18,513 --> 01:05:21,468
that has been a consistent enemy
of law and order in this city.
820
01:05:22,392 --> 01:05:24,848
In two instances,
traffic was stopped for hours...
821
01:05:24,936 --> 01:05:28,020
once at the Brooklyn Bridge
and once at the Queens Midtown Tunnel.
822
01:05:28,399 --> 01:05:30,641
They've represented
the pushcart peddlers...
823
01:05:30,734 --> 01:05:33,605
who drive away business from
legitimate, tax-paying merchants.
824
01:05:33,737 --> 01:05:37,272
Welfare cheats, corrupt local school
boards, in other words...
825
01:05:37,367 --> 01:05:40,485
all the elements that have made
life in this city almost unlivable.
826
01:05:40,661 --> 01:05:42,619
The District Attorney's office is...
827
01:05:42,705 --> 01:05:44,994
the representative of law and order
in this city.
828
01:05:45,540 --> 01:05:47,498
Who do you want
sitting in that chair?
829
01:05:47,751 --> 01:05:52,044
A newly graduated, naive lawyer
with one easy victory behind him?
830
01:05:52,381 --> 01:05:55,002
A man who sees nothing wrong with
an involvement in a law firm...
831
01:05:55,091 --> 01:05:57,168
that has, at times, brought this city
to its knees?
832
01:05:57,970 --> 01:06:02,678
Or the calm, reasoned, objective
point of view of someone...
833
01:06:02,724 --> 01:06:06,010
who's devoted 18 years of public service
to this city and its people?
834
01:06:07,562 --> 01:06:08,594
Thank you.
835
01:06:11,317 --> 01:06:12,561
Mr. Casey?
836
01:06:15,696 --> 01:06:18,531
I'm not even going to respond to
the personal attack...
837
01:06:18,616 --> 01:06:21,107
other than to say that
we are sort of living in sin
838
01:06:21,201 --> 01:06:24,487
because she won't marry me:
I've asked.
839
01:06:26,958 --> 01:06:30,327
I would like to address what I think
Mr. Harrison here's really talking about.
840
01:06:31,587 --> 01:06:34,458
We are all perfectly aware of
the complete loss of respect...
841
01:06:34,549 --> 01:06:36,374
that exists for government today,
particularly the law.
842
01:06:36,466 --> 01:06:38,922
Well, I believe that
the system can work.
843
01:06:39,762 --> 01:06:42,087
But you, all of you,
need one basic reassurance:
844
01:06:42,180 --> 01:06:44,932
you need to know that
the law applies to everyone equally.
845
01:06:45,017 --> 01:06:48,516
Rich, poor, black, white, yellow,
brown, witness, jury...
846
01:06:48,604 --> 01:06:52,553
perpetrator, victim, cops, judges,
Wall Street, welfare...
847
01:06:52,608 --> 01:06:54,731
All everyone equally.
848
01:06:55,737 --> 01:06:58,440
The party ticket I am running on
may not like what I'm saying...
849
01:06:58,488 --> 01:06:59,817
but I'm telling you how I feel.
850
01:07:00,116 --> 01:07:02,024
There will be only one standard:
851
01:07:02,118 --> 01:07:04,157
Did that person break the law?
852
01:07:04,870 --> 01:07:07,741
If I am elected,
the law will exclude no-one.
853
01:07:07,831 --> 01:07:11,283
All, everyone,
will be equal before the law.
854
01:07:11,377 --> 01:07:13,454
Just like it says on the building.
855
01:07:13,505 --> 01:07:15,128
Thank you.
856
01:07:28,144 --> 01:07:30,219
Do we have to go back?
857
01:07:31,230 --> 01:07:35,014
You do.
Big campaign stops tomorrow.
858
01:07:35,109 --> 01:07:38,524
Right.
This place is magic.
859
01:07:40,198 --> 01:07:43,234
For what it's worth, I never thought
I'd want a place like this.
860
01:07:44,285 --> 01:07:46,823
Until this morning,
while making coffee for you.
861
01:07:47,622 --> 01:07:50,160
It's worth a lot
you make very good coffee.
862
01:07:51,626 --> 01:07:53,084
I think we should get married.
863
01:07:59,968 --> 01:08:01,166
Will you marry me?
864
01:08:06,432 --> 01:08:08,555
Let's not push it
marriage wasn't great for me.
865
01:08:08,643 --> 01:08:10,719
You weren't married to me.
866
01:08:12,395 --> 01:08:15,147
How was your meeting with
Vigoda?
867
01:08:20,404 --> 01:08:21,863
It was interesting.
868
01:08:24,199 --> 01:08:27,070
I can't tell you the content of it.
- I understand.
869
01:08:27,704 --> 01:08:31,072
When you're the D.A.
we may wind up on opposite sides a lot.
870
01:08:31,165 --> 01:08:33,241
We'll have lots of secrets
from each other.
871
01:08:33,334 --> 01:08:34,828
I hate that.
- So what do you suggest.
872
01:08:36,420 --> 01:08:38,413
I suggest
we tell each other everything.
873
01:08:41,300 --> 01:08:44,587
We'll leave it up to the other person
to decide whether to use it.
874
01:08:46,097 --> 01:08:48,553
God, you like to make things difficult.
875
01:08:50,226 --> 01:08:54,271
Why not just keep quiet?
- That's also an option.
876
01:08:57,775 --> 01:08:58,805
Come in.
877
01:09:01,444 --> 01:09:03,521
Thanks for coming in, Mr. Casey. Of
878
01:09:03,614 --> 01:09:05,939
Of course, we've seen each other around
for months, but never really met.
879
01:09:06,200 --> 01:09:08,276
I'm Captain Lawrence, Head of
Investigation for the D.A.'s office.
880
01:09:08,369 --> 01:09:09,567
Of course.
881
01:09:09,663 --> 01:09:12,118
This is my assistant,
Lieutenant Gentile.
882
01:09:12,165 --> 01:09:12,829
How are you, Counselor.
- Hi, how are you.
883
01:09:12,915 --> 01:09:17,078
You did a hell of a job.
I'll be working for you after November.
884
01:09:17,544 --> 01:09:21,958
This is Lieutenant Wilson, Internal
Affairs. Wilson, will you take over?
885
01:09:27,138 --> 01:09:29,215
Harbor Police fished out what
was practically a skeleton...
886
01:09:29,308 --> 01:09:31,383
in the East River some months ago.
887
01:09:32,644 --> 01:09:36,262
Dental records identified
the body as Kurt Kleinhoff.
888
01:09:38,775 --> 01:09:41,100
A few days later we obtained
a copy of a small black address book,
889
01:09:41,277 --> 01:09:43,270
I can't tell you how.
890
01:09:44,114 --> 01:09:47,150
The address book had the names of
fifteen police officers.
891
01:09:50,745 --> 01:09:53,318
The fifteen officers were, and are
presently, in the Six-four,
892
01:09:53,414 --> 01:09:55,490
the Six-five and the Seven-four.
893
01:09:56,125 --> 01:09:59,873
As of yesterday at four o'clock, we've
officially taken over the investigation.
894
01:10:00,130 --> 01:10:03,379
That's what we're here for
that's what our department does.
895
01:10:04,009 --> 01:10:06,381
One of our first investigations is
to find out...
896
01:10:06,428 --> 01:10:08,467
how many officers named in that book...
897
01:10:08,513 --> 01:10:11,134
were present at
the Jordan Washington shoot-out.
898
01:10:12,184 --> 01:10:18,139
Do you know if Kleinhoff was dirty?
- We don't know. Yet.
899
01:10:18,649 --> 01:10:21,484
But we sort of kept tabs on him
after he left the force.
900
01:10:21,568 --> 01:10:23,644
He was always around drugs,
on the fringes.
901
01:10:23,737 --> 01:10:26,062
Where there was dope and dealers,
there was Kleinhoff.
902
01:10:26,573 --> 01:10:30,239
We were getting close when he floated
up. No point looking for the killer
903
01:10:30,368 --> 01:10:32,776
forensics can't give us a hint of
how he died.
904
01:10:33,872 --> 01:10:35,947
So why am I here?
905
01:10:37,375 --> 01:10:42,120
One of the names in the book was
Joey Allegretto. Your father's partner.
906
01:10:42,631 --> 01:10:47,790
We have to bring him in, Sean, but we
don't want to hurt you or your campaign.
907
01:10:48,386 --> 01:10:50,960
And God knows, we don't want to hurt
your father.
908
01:10:51,681 --> 01:10:54,599
We thought it might be worthwhile for
you to talk to him first.,
909
01:10:54,684 --> 01:10:56,760
Maybe it's something,
maybe it's nothing.
910
01:10:56,937 --> 01:11:00,021
But if it's something,
maybe he'll talk to you.
911
01:11:00,691 --> 01:11:03,016
Then maybe we can see if there's a way
of exercising some damage control...
912
01:11:03,693 --> 01:11:05,402
on this whole mess.
913
01:11:06,738 --> 01:11:09,443
And I'm supposed to report back to you,
is that it?
914
01:11:10,867 --> 01:11:15,494
If I were you, I'd do it, Mr. Casey.
It's better to know than not know.
915
01:11:18,250 --> 01:11:20,243
Anybody else you want me to talk to?
916
01:11:23,379 --> 01:11:24,708
Not at the moment.
917
01:11:38,979 --> 01:11:42,561
What the fuck, they don't give you
an office? We got to meet out here?
918
01:11:43,858 --> 01:11:46,017
Come here. How you doing?
919
01:11:50,366 --> 01:11:54,114
What's the matter?
What's the matter with you?
920
01:11:54,786 --> 01:11:56,696
I'd never wear a wire on you, Joe.
921
01:12:01,334 --> 01:12:03,411
I'm sorry.
922
01:12:05,047 --> 01:12:09,210
I know that, I'm sorry.
Come on, come here, I'm sorry.
923
01:12:15,932 --> 01:12:19,881
It's just that ever since Kleinhoff
floated up...
924
01:12:19,937 --> 01:12:21,894
everybody's a little tense,
that's all.
925
01:12:24,107 --> 01:12:27,856
Why are they tense, Joey?
- Oh, people are talking.
926
01:12:28,488 --> 01:12:31,606
What are they talking about?
- Internal Affairs getting involved.
927
01:12:31,699 --> 01:12:33,027
Your office.
928
01:12:33,450 --> 01:12:34,778
People are edgy.
929
01:12:36,537 --> 01:12:40,665
Joey, you said at the trial
you didn't know Kleinhoff.
930
01:12:41,083 --> 01:12:44,748
Yeah, well, I lied.
- Why?
931
01:12:46,046 --> 01:12:49,214
'Cause committing perjury's a hell easier
than admitting you know Kleinhoff.
932
01:12:49,342 --> 01:12:51,085
Well, what are you going to do?
You going to report me?
933
01:12:55,681 --> 01:12:59,549
I'll report as little or as much
of this conversation as I want to.
934
01:12:59,642 --> 01:13:01,718
That's the deal
935
01:13:03,939 --> 01:13:06,774
You don't know Internal Affairs.
You think that's the deal.
936
01:13:07,609 --> 01:13:11,524
I'm the next D.A. of this city
that's the deal.
937
01:13:11,613 --> 01:13:12,644
Okay.
938
01:13:15,826 --> 01:13:18,199
I'm asking, Joe: you a dirty cop?
939
01:13:20,331 --> 01:13:24,578
Never.
- Why is your name in Kleinhoff's book?
940
01:13:28,464 --> 01:13:33,540
Didn't know he had a book. Anyway he
tried to call me a couple of times.
941
01:13:33,803 --> 01:13:36,887
I always said no.
- Why didn't you go after him?
942
01:13:37,765 --> 01:13:39,473
The truth?
- Yeah.
943
01:13:39,517 --> 01:13:41,225
I didn't have the balls.
944
01:13:41,269 --> 01:13:44,471
He meant a lot of money to many cops.
I figured I'd keep my own nose clean...
945
01:13:44,562 --> 01:13:46,639
and that's that.
946
01:13:47,691 --> 01:13:49,398
Did he try to reach my father?
947
01:13:52,279 --> 01:13:55,565
Look at me.
Did he try to reach my father?
948
01:13:57,493 --> 01:14:02,866
I swear to you.
As far as I know your father's clean.
949
01:14:07,085 --> 01:14:08,461
Okay?
950
01:14:10,923 --> 01:14:12,382
Why here?
951
01:14:12,466 --> 01:14:14,459
You swear to me on Mama's grave
you're clean on this Kleinhoff business.
952
01:14:14,510 --> 01:14:16,302
Kleinhoff?
- Kleinhoff?
953
01:14:16,387 --> 01:14:18,794
You know damn well who Kleinhoff is.
Don't look at me that way.
954
01:14:18,889 --> 01:14:22,934
He had his hands all over some cops in
the Six-four, Six-five and Seven-four.
955
01:14:23,478 --> 01:14:26,313
Swear to me right here, Pop, right here,
you're clean.
956
01:14:27,691 --> 01:14:31,274
I swear to you at your mother's grave.
I'm clean.
957
01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:33,435
Why did you lie at the trial?
958
01:14:34,321 --> 01:14:36,942
Joey's already told you.
- Joey told you about our meeting?
959
01:14:37,032 --> 01:14:38,361
Of course.
960
01:14:40,034 --> 01:14:42,491
What about Joe?
- He's clean.
961
01:14:44,123 --> 01:14:48,832
Why's his name in Kleinhoff's book?
- Kleinhoff tried to reach him.
962
01:14:50,380 --> 01:14:53,297
Joey comes to me and asks me
what should he do...
963
01:14:55,134 --> 01:14:58,503
I told him I didn't want to touch it,
so he turned him down.
964
01:14:59,138 --> 01:15:01,013
How do you know?
- How do I know what?
965
01:15:01,058 --> 01:15:02,255
That he turned him down?
966
01:15:03,767 --> 01:15:05,179
He's my partner.
967
01:15:08,857 --> 01:15:09,888
I'm sorry.
968
01:15:13,319 --> 01:15:14,778
I'm sorry, Pop.
969
01:15:19,283 --> 01:15:23,861
He's clean, Captain Lawrence.
- Thank you, Sean. Glad to hear it.
970
01:15:26,164 --> 01:15:29,700
Sean's talked to him:
says Allegretto's clean.
971
01:15:29,794 --> 01:15:31,869
That's what I'd expect him to say.
972
01:15:34,549 --> 01:15:37,466
It's nine o'clock: results.
Let's go.
973
01:15:38,970 --> 01:15:43,133
Let's go to our correspondent Colleen H.
with our special election coverage.
974
01:15:43,683 --> 01:15:47,763
With voting just ended, we've already
got our first victory of the evening.
975
01:15:47,853 --> 01:15:51,722
And considering how close the polls were
it comes as a big surprise.
976
01:15:51,817 --> 01:15:55,814
According to our exit polling,
Sean Casey will win easily over his...
977
01:15:55,903 --> 01:15:57,980
Congratulations, Sean.
978
01:15:59,366 --> 01:16:02,070
...sixty-four percent of the vote,
by our projections.
979
01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:05,280
Though not quite that conclusively,
it looks by early count that...
980
01:16:05,330 --> 01:16:07,950
Mayor Williams should also
waltz in comfortably.
981
01:16:11,836 --> 01:16:13,912
It can't go on like this.
Can it?
982
01:16:14,755 --> 01:16:17,247
One wonderful thing happening
after another.
983
01:16:17,675 --> 01:16:21,838
In my experience, no.
It can't go on like this.
984
01:16:22,806 --> 01:16:24,881
What's been your experience?
985
01:16:24,974 --> 01:16:28,592
Oh, nothing brutal.
In fact, on the whole, I'm lucky.
986
01:16:29,103 --> 01:16:32,768
It's just that I keep picking guys that
I expect to be perfect
987
01:16:32,857 --> 01:16:34,934
I don't mean money and looks:
like you.
988
01:16:35,026 --> 01:16:40,612
Just perfect. And then we get close and
the flaws show up.
989
01:16:41,241 --> 01:16:45,239
I guess that's my flaw
expecting Lancelot.
990
01:16:45,704 --> 01:16:47,993
You haven't picked wrong with me, Peggy.
991
01:16:48,498 --> 01:16:51,949
I know, and it frightens me even more.
992
01:16:52,043 --> 01:16:54,534
What if you're everything I hoped for
and...
993
01:16:57,215 --> 01:16:59,088
What?
And what?
994
01:17:01,552 --> 01:17:06,178
And it turns out
I'm not good enough for you?
995
01:17:10,352 --> 01:17:13,307
If I'm not, I don't want to know that
about myself.
996
01:17:29,748 --> 01:17:31,242
Will you marry me?
997
01:17:34,002 --> 01:17:37,786
Maybe. I want to.
998
01:17:39,592 --> 01:17:41,086
But I'm scared.
999
01:17:42,719 --> 01:17:46,668
Can we at least live together?
In the same place?
1000
01:17:50,351 --> 01:17:54,051
Okay, your place or mine?
- Whichever.
1001
01:17:55,982 --> 01:17:58,817
Mine.
- Good choice.
1002
01:17:59,569 --> 01:18:03,020
But don't give up yours.
- Yet.
1003
01:18:08,078 --> 01:18:10,200
No, I don't recognize
the name Kleinhoff.
1004
01:18:10,955 --> 01:18:16,412
I've had over 1000 officers working
under me in my command for 32 years.
1005
01:18:16,712 --> 01:18:21,338
How do you expect me to remember a name?
- 'Cause he was paying you every month.
1006
01:18:21,716 --> 01:18:23,792
If you're clean, you got no reason
to be so nervous.
1007
01:18:23,843 --> 01:18:25,837
Are you kidding me?
1008
01:18:26,013 --> 01:18:28,338
You know what it means to even be
called in here?
1009
01:18:29,225 --> 01:18:32,842
You got pictures? What've you got?
- We don't have to tell you anything,
1010
01:18:32,935 --> 01:18:35,011
you have to tell us.
1011
01:18:35,229 --> 01:18:37,899
Bullshit, if you had pictures,
you'd be shoving them into my face,
1012
01:18:37,982 --> 01:18:39,857
so you could turn me into a rat.
1013
01:18:40,109 --> 01:18:42,435
I don't know nothing about knocking off
Washington.
1014
01:18:42,529 --> 01:18:45,898
I will not answer any questions unless
a PBA lawyer is present.
1015
01:18:46,408 --> 01:18:50,536
I'd like you to repeat that.
Just one time outside this room.
1016
01:18:52,288 --> 01:18:53,867
You'd be swallowing your teeth by now.
1017
01:18:54,375 --> 01:18:56,367
I swear I'm innocent.
1018
01:18:58,545 --> 01:19:02,757
Kill Jordan Washington?
Are you crazy?
1019
01:19:06,094 --> 01:19:09,795
Not a crack.
- Mr. Casey.
1020
01:19:10,932 --> 01:19:15,180
It always starts this way.
Everybody's innocent.
1021
01:19:15,813 --> 01:19:19,976
They're all lying.
If their lips are moving, they're lying.
1022
01:19:20,442 --> 01:19:23,360
Within a week, somebody'll come in
to make a deal for himself...
1023
01:19:23,444 --> 01:19:25,853
then the whole house of cards collapses.
1024
01:19:26,448 --> 01:19:28,073
They're going down.
1025
01:19:41,213 --> 01:19:42,245
Come heavy.
1026
01:19:46,594 --> 01:19:48,669
Barnard Street, apartment 3-David.
1027
01:19:48,762 --> 01:19:50,470
We got two plain-clothes going in
with warrant.
1028
01:19:50,556 --> 01:19:52,762
Send back-up. Come heavy.
1029
01:19:54,977 --> 01:19:56,008
Hi.
1030
01:20:01,526 --> 01:20:03,185
Sean?
- Yeah?
1031
01:20:03,277 --> 01:20:05,352
- One of your perks...
1032
01:20:06,279 --> 01:20:10,111
Well, if there's anyone you want
as your secretary...
1033
01:20:10,910 --> 01:20:15,203
I mean, you should have who you want.
- Eileen, I'd like you to stay on, please.
1034
01:20:15,288 --> 01:20:18,658
I need all the help I can get.
- I'd be honored.
1035
01:20:20,544 --> 01:20:23,332
Eileen, you know
where the warrant might be?
1036
01:20:23,421 --> 01:20:25,747
The one that Joey and my father had?
1037
01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:27,792
It's in that stack I just brought you.
1038
01:20:27,885 --> 01:20:32,761
All the documentation is chronological,
so it should be, right at the top.
1039
01:20:33,057 --> 01:20:35,263
That's a Xerox,
you know where the original might be?
1040
01:20:35,309 --> 01:20:37,385
Who signed this?
- Impelleteri.
1041
01:20:37,478 --> 01:20:39,850
Could have gone back to his office,
or floating around the 74th precinct.
1042
01:20:39,939 --> 01:20:42,644
Do you want me to locate it?
- Please.
1043
01:20:42,734 --> 01:20:45,224
Could take a couple of days.
- Okay.
1044
01:20:55,204 --> 01:20:56,483
Hi.
- Hi.
1045
01:21:07,008 --> 01:21:08,502
How you feeling, Morgy?
1046
01:21:10,052 --> 01:21:13,801
Lousy.
What else do you want to ask me?
1047
01:21:16,892 --> 01:21:21,804
I came to thank you.
I owe a lot to you.
1048
01:21:21,897 --> 01:21:23,854
Don't thank me.
I might not have done you a favor.
1049
01:21:26,903 --> 01:21:29,109
It'll start soon, you'll see.
1050
01:21:30,864 --> 01:21:32,773
What'll start?
- The pressure.
1051
01:21:33,576 --> 01:21:35,865
In fact, from what I heard,
it's started already.
1052
01:21:39,582 --> 01:21:41,621
What did you hear?
1053
01:21:41,666 --> 01:21:43,623
Internal Affairs, they're pressing you?
1054
01:21:47,381 --> 01:21:49,041
How did you hear it?
1055
01:21:49,133 --> 01:21:53,677
People owe me.
How bad is it?
1056
01:21:55,055 --> 01:21:57,132
I don't know yet.
1057
01:21:57,475 --> 01:21:59,550
This Internal Affairs business:
I'm afraid to go through the door.
1058
01:21:59,643 --> 01:22:01,553
I don't know what to expect.
1059
01:22:02,063 --> 01:22:04,351
Expect the worst, so prepare yourself.
1060
01:22:04,440 --> 01:22:07,856
Everybody's going to want a piece of you
now that you're elected.
1061
01:22:09,696 --> 01:22:11,771
Leaves you in a damn good position, kid.
1062
01:22:11,864 --> 01:22:14,486
When they grab for you,
when they go for that piece of you...
1063
01:22:15,243 --> 01:22:17,816
you get something back.
1064
01:22:17,912 --> 01:22:19,988
You always get back more than you gave.
1065
01:22:20,540 --> 01:22:23,661
You hear me, kid?
More than you gave.
1066
01:22:23,751 --> 01:22:25,910
What are you saying to me? It's going
to be one big deal I'm making?
1067
01:22:26,003 --> 01:22:32,088
No, a hundred little ones. A thousand.
Deal after deal after deal after deal.
1068
01:22:32,176 --> 01:22:35,592
It's not why I became a lawyer.
- Who cares why you became a lawyer.
1069
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:38,756
Only you nobody else gives a shit.
1070
01:22:38,850 --> 01:22:41,803
Why? You want clean hands?
Become a priest.
1071
01:22:45,898 --> 01:22:48,815
Look, kid, what you're searching for,
you're not going to find it.
1072
01:22:48,901 --> 01:22:50,977
Not in this place, not at this time.
1073
01:22:51,154 --> 01:22:53,027
Maybe no place at any time.
1074
01:22:59,287 --> 01:23:01,031
But you'll be better than most.
1075
01:23:02,832 --> 01:23:05,158
That's what you're going to have
to be satisfied with.
1076
01:23:05,251 --> 01:23:07,410
Get the hell out of here, please.
You're depressing me.
1077
01:23:08,589 --> 01:23:11,838
Come on.
- Oh, God.
1078
01:23:11,926 --> 01:23:13,632
Please.
1079
01:23:20,558 --> 01:23:22,597
I'd kiss you,
but you're an ugly bastard.
1080
01:23:31,653 --> 01:23:35,152
So, what do you think, Lieutenant?
Can I do myself some good here?
1081
01:23:36,658 --> 01:23:39,694
You're the first to come forward,
I'm sure we can help.
1082
01:23:39,786 --> 01:23:42,359
But I'll need corroboration
for everything you tell us.
1083
01:23:44,373 --> 01:23:47,375
I don't see a problem.
My old partner, Estevez?
1084
01:23:47,460 --> 01:23:53,962
You had him in here.
For a deal, he'll talk.
1085
01:23:57,805 --> 01:24:03,344
Good. But that's it.
After the two of you, no more deals.
1086
01:24:08,731 --> 01:24:12,183
I'm saddened to announce the indictment
this morning of five police officers on
1087
01:24:12,276 --> 01:24:16,190
on charges of bribery and
dealing in narcotics.
1088
01:24:16,281 --> 01:24:18,950
Their names are in the press release
you've been given.
1089
01:24:19,283 --> 01:24:21,609
The indictments are the result of
a two month investigation.
1090
01:24:21,703 --> 01:24:23,779
by the Internal Affairs Division.
1091
01:24:23,997 --> 01:24:27,449
The investigation was conducted by
Lieutenant Wilson.
1092
01:24:27,668 --> 01:24:32,164
Any more cops to come, Sean?
It's an ongoing investigation.
1093
01:24:32,213 --> 01:24:35,131
You're an ex-cop, Mr. District Attorney.
How do you feel?
1094
01:24:35,384 --> 01:24:36,415
Lousy.
1095
01:24:38,053 --> 01:24:42,003
I notice that three of the five names
were in the 74th precinct.
1096
01:24:42,642 --> 01:24:45,014
Isn't your father
in the 74th precinct?
1097
01:24:47,563 --> 01:24:50,018
If there's anything I hate
as much as a dirty cop...
1098
01:24:50,107 --> 01:24:54,186
it's a scandal-mongering reporter
looking for a sensationalist story.
1099
01:24:55,027 --> 01:24:57,103
Your smear of a good cop...
1100
01:24:57,531 --> 01:25:00,864
a cop who almost gave his life
for this city is despicable.
1101
01:25:01,952 --> 01:25:03,279
You find that funny?
1102
01:25:06,247 --> 01:25:08,074
Having said that, I can tell you that...
1103
01:25:08,124 --> 01:25:10,615
this investigation will go
wherever the evidence leads.
1104
01:25:10,711 --> 01:25:12,121
This press conference is over.
1105
01:25:17,676 --> 01:25:20,843
Eileen, any word on the warrant?
- Oh, I forgot to tell you.
1106
01:25:20,929 --> 01:25:23,005
We can't find any trace of the original.
1107
01:25:24,808 --> 01:25:27,299
How come?
- Happens all the time.
1108
01:25:33,526 --> 01:25:35,602
I'll clear this.
- Here, let me help you.
1109
01:25:35,653 --> 01:25:37,728
- I got it, thanks. Just sit there.
1110
01:25:37,988 --> 01:25:42,234
Like you to volunteer
after all the hard work's done, right?
1111
01:25:42,325 --> 01:25:44,401
Making the roast beef,
that's when I could've used you.
1112
01:25:44,495 --> 01:25:46,701
Peeling potatoes, scraping the carrots.
1113
01:25:46,787 --> 01:25:49,077
Sit there and drink your Guinea Red.
I'll take care of it.
1114
01:25:49,165 --> 01:25:52,120
It was great, Pop.
When did you learn how to cook?
1115
01:25:52,210 --> 01:25:54,037
Oh, after your mom died.
1116
01:25:54,588 --> 01:25:56,710
Days off got so damn lonely
around here.
1117
01:25:59,050 --> 01:26:01,043
But people were nice.
1118
01:26:01,553 --> 01:26:03,630
They kept on inviting me
for Sunday dinner.
1119
01:26:03,722 --> 01:26:06,474
I knew I'd have to invite them back
and restaurants round here ain't great.
1120
01:26:08,352 --> 01:26:13,144
Also, I tend to drink a little too much
in a restaurant, I don't know why.
1121
01:26:14,024 --> 01:26:18,188
So I started cooking.
Made my days off go faster.
1122
01:26:19,321 --> 01:26:22,238
And I could repay my neighbors like
a civilized man.
1123
01:26:23,284 --> 01:26:27,612
Go ahead, don't wait for me.
I'll just get some milk.
1124
01:26:28,997 --> 01:26:31,405
I can't take credit for that pie,
I'm afraid.
1125
01:26:32,083 --> 01:26:34,836
It's store bought,
but Casey heated.
1126
01:26:39,299 --> 01:26:42,419
There we go. Want some coffee?
- Yeah.
1127
01:26:43,220 --> 01:26:48,559
So, Sean, you wanted to see us,
and we wanted to see you.
1128
01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:52,929
So what's up?
- Go ahead, take it.
1129
01:26:55,232 --> 01:26:56,311
You first.
1130
01:27:01,739 --> 01:27:05,571
Okay, we got a little favor to ask you,
Seano.
1131
01:27:09,664 --> 01:27:15,084
Tough one, Pop?
- For you, I guess it will be. Go ahead.
1132
01:27:17,253 --> 01:27:20,338
I guess the only thing to do is say it.
- Right.
1133
01:27:24,136 --> 01:27:25,879
Got caught with my hand in
the cookie jar.
1134
01:27:29,100 --> 01:27:33,595
Whose cookie jar?
- Oh, Kleinhoff.
1135
01:27:35,438 --> 01:27:38,274
Somebody ratted me out to Internal
Affairs and they called me in.
1136
01:27:38,359 --> 01:27:39,604
How long you been on the take?
1137
01:27:41,445 --> 01:27:44,019
About four years.
- How much?
1138
01:27:45,407 --> 01:27:49,820
Over the whole time, I don't know,
about sixty or seventy grand.
1139
01:27:51,206 --> 01:27:52,285
Grand jury?
1140
01:27:54,792 --> 01:27:58,291
Yeah, in about two or three weeks.
1141
01:28:00,339 --> 01:28:05,215
What do you want me to do about it?
- Joey's offered to co-operate.
1142
01:28:05,803 --> 01:28:08,756
I told them, you know, they got me.
1143
01:28:09,097 --> 01:28:12,467
That fucking prick Wilson turned me down.
He says he's got everybody he needs.
1144
01:28:12,559 --> 01:28:14,635
Talk to him, Sean. He could use Joey.
1145
01:28:14,728 --> 01:28:16,722
One more witness never hurt
the prosecution.
1146
01:28:16,773 --> 01:28:18,682
He'll listen to you. You're the D.A.
1147
01:28:18,774 --> 01:28:22,689
It's a personal thing with that fucking
prick he's been after me for years.
1148
01:28:22,820 --> 01:28:25,311
About eight, nine years ago...
- Bullshit, bullshit.
1149
01:28:26,282 --> 01:28:28,405
You might as well be selling
dope yourself.
1150
01:28:29,034 --> 01:28:32,155
Sean, don't.
- What do you mean, don't.
1151
01:28:32,246 --> 01:28:34,785
Don't what, Pop?
Don't tell him he's a scumbag?
1152
01:28:35,207 --> 01:28:38,043
That he's a disgrace?
What about it, Pop?
1153
01:28:38,126 --> 01:28:41,081
You tell me: what do you want me to do?
- Sean, he's my partner.
1154
01:28:41,172 --> 01:28:44,755
Right, hold it. Just hold it.
I don't want you two to...
1155
01:28:45,593 --> 01:28:47,670
I mean, that's just not right.
1156
01:28:49,305 --> 01:28:52,674
Yeah, I'm your partner,
but this is your son.
1157
01:28:53,893 --> 01:28:56,265
And I don't want to cause no bad feeling
between you two.
1158
01:28:58,188 --> 01:29:01,973
And you, you can stop worrying, 'cause
he had nothing to do with anything.
1159
01:29:02,068 --> 01:29:04,737
There is no way I'm going to talk to
Internal Affairs about him.
1160
01:29:07,572 --> 01:29:12,366
What if I had something new to offer?
- Something new to offer? Like what?
1161
01:29:15,498 --> 01:29:19,959
There were eight cops who...
- Eight cops who what, Joey?
1162
01:29:23,005 --> 01:29:26,173
What?
- Talked about taking out Washington.
1163
01:29:33,183 --> 01:29:34,760
My God.
1164
01:29:36,893 --> 01:29:38,970
Including you, Joey?
1165
01:29:40,439 --> 01:29:42,515
Yeah, including me.
1166
01:29:43,984 --> 01:29:46,143
That night of the shoot-out,
they all came...
1167
01:29:46,238 --> 01:29:48,312
And they were there the night of.
the shoot-out, weren't they?
1168
01:29:48,530 --> 01:29:51,401
Including the two rat-fucks that
turned me into Wilson.
1169
01:29:51,492 --> 01:29:53,569
The two rat-fucks? Rat-fucks?
1170
01:29:55,455 --> 01:29:57,780
You took money from
Harlem's biggest dealer...
1171
01:29:57,832 --> 01:29:59,706
you committed perjury at his trial...
1172
01:29:59,750 --> 01:30:03,250
you engaged in a conspiracy to kill him
when he wouldn't cough up more dough
1173
01:30:03,296 --> 01:30:06,415
and now you're offering to turn in seven
other cops in order to save yourself...
1174
01:30:06,508 --> 01:30:08,584
and you have the nerve
to call them rat-fucks?
1175
01:30:11,096 --> 01:30:14,429
You were a cop, Joe, and
now you're garbage, you're nothing.
1176
01:30:15,350 --> 01:30:19,098
I hope some crazy junky takes you out
in an alley one night.
1177
01:31:03,774 --> 01:31:06,976
Sean, I didn't know.
- Vigoda was right.
1178
01:31:10,155 --> 01:31:13,903
It's funny, you spend years with
a partner, you live...
1179
01:31:14,909 --> 01:31:18,990
sometimes you die together.
But you don't know him.
1180
01:31:22,750 --> 01:31:25,206
Was Jordan Washington
the only honest witness at the trial?
1181
01:31:28,298 --> 01:31:30,290
You mean, did I lie about anything?
1182
01:31:34,387 --> 01:31:35,762
Course not, Pop.
1183
01:31:44,898 --> 01:31:46,061
Did you?
1184
01:31:58,996 --> 01:32:00,275
The warrant.
1185
01:32:05,293 --> 01:32:07,785
That's what I came to see you about.
1186
01:32:10,548 --> 01:32:12,625
What about it?
1187
01:32:13,552 --> 01:32:15,840
The day of the stake-out,
I made out a new one.
1188
01:32:15,887 --> 01:32:18,592
The old one expired the day before.
I made out a new one...
1189
01:32:18,681 --> 01:32:22,549
signed Impelliteri's name.
Nobody checks a signature.
1190
01:32:23,103 --> 01:32:26,852
Why? Pop, why?
1191
01:32:28,192 --> 01:32:29,223
Well...
1192
01:32:32,405 --> 01:32:36,450
Nail it, son.
Remember?
1193
01:32:38,451 --> 01:32:40,361
We were this close...
1194
01:32:41,538 --> 01:32:44,159
this close to nailing
that son-of-a bitch.
1195
01:32:46,085 --> 01:32:48,325
Snitch said he was going to show
that weekend.
1196
01:32:50,380 --> 01:32:54,046
Get an extension.
- It was a Friday.
1197
01:32:55,093 --> 01:32:58,427
Go find a judge at 3 o'clock on a Friday
- No, you could have found one, Pop.
1198
01:32:58,513 --> 01:33:02,974
How many judges do you think I know?
Huh? And I don't trust half of them.
1199
01:33:05,687 --> 01:33:07,347
I wanted Jordan Washington.
1200
01:33:09,566 --> 01:33:15,237
You don't know how bad I wanted him.
Biggest fucking collar of my whole life.
1201
01:33:16,115 --> 01:33:19,032
And that bastard, murderer,
1202
01:33:20,244 --> 01:33:22,070
A man who destroys his own people
1203
01:33:22,120 --> 01:33:24,197
They did it to him.
Now he was doing it to others.
1204
01:33:24,248 --> 01:33:27,582
And there were fifteen cops helping him.
- Don't give me that shit.
1205
01:33:28,252 --> 01:33:33,756
Six hundred thousand dollars a year?
Six hundred thousand dollars a year?
1206
01:33:35,800 --> 01:33:37,627
How many can resist that?
1207
01:33:40,596 --> 01:33:42,886
How many doctors, lawyers...
1208
01:33:42,975 --> 01:33:45,133
the bastards who put the gas tanks
in the wrong place?
1209
01:33:45,269 --> 01:33:50,393
Those fucks that buy boats with
other people's life savings.
1210
01:33:50,483 --> 01:33:53,816
Tell me, who can resist six hundred
thousand dollars?
1211
01:33:59,533 --> 01:34:05,120
I'll tell you who: twenty-seven thousand
other cops on the force, that's who.
1212
01:34:05,873 --> 01:34:08,577
Or maybe it's twenty-six thousand or
twenty-five thousand.
1213
01:34:08,667 --> 01:34:14,337
Or maybe it's twenty thousand. But it's
more than the rest of the goddam country.
1214
01:34:18,094 --> 01:34:21,962
And to top it all off, two of us go in,
me and Joey.
1215
01:34:22,764 --> 01:34:28,517
Two of us go through that door because
we want Jordan Washington.
1216
01:34:30,731 --> 01:34:33,400
Only Jesus Christ stopped me from
killing him on the spot.
1217
01:34:35,319 --> 01:34:40,610
And you think I'm going to let him walk,
when all I got to do is go down the hall,
1218
01:34:41,617 --> 01:34:45,615
Make a copy, smudge it up a little.
Leave it on my desk.
1219
01:34:48,958 --> 01:34:51,034
I'll be sure I'd rather do time than
not do what I did.
1220
01:34:51,085 --> 01:34:52,877
It can happen, Pop.
1221
01:34:55,507 --> 01:34:58,210
You can do time and Jordan'll walk
if word gets out.
1222
01:35:05,433 --> 01:35:07,176
I need some wine.
1223
01:35:08,729 --> 01:35:15,014
I still got it. The warrant.
The original. The outdated one.
1224
01:35:16,443 --> 01:35:20,227
I got kind of superstitious. I wanted
the jacket around me to remind me
1225
01:35:20,322 --> 01:35:22,399
how close I'd come to dying.
1226
01:35:27,287 --> 01:35:28,866
How lucky I've been after...
1227
01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:34,784
you know how many years?
- Thirty-seven.
1228
01:35:34,879 --> 01:35:36,955
Thirty-seven.
1229
01:35:38,924 --> 01:35:41,214
When I left the hospital, they gave me
my clothes back.
1230
01:35:41,302 --> 01:35:43,379
The jacket and shoes are all that's left.
1231
01:35:43,471 --> 01:35:47,385
The shirt, the pants, they had to cut
them away. I reached in the pocket...
1232
01:35:48,476 --> 01:35:50,219
and there it was.
1233
01:35:55,692 --> 01:35:58,063
Jesus Christ, what a mess
I've brought to you.
1234
01:36:03,240 --> 01:36:08,661
I think I'm going to head home now, Pop.
- Listen, Sean,
1235
01:36:11,999 --> 01:36:13,541
If you can't live with this...
1236
01:36:17,171 --> 01:36:20,872
you know, just keeping a secret
about the warrant, just tell me.
1237
01:36:22,843 --> 01:36:24,967
I don't want you to carry the burden.
1238
01:36:25,555 --> 01:36:27,630
I'll go in and tell them I did it.
1239
01:36:27,723 --> 01:36:30,296
I don't want you to go against your
feelings, because you know what's right.
1240
01:36:31,853 --> 01:36:38,023
I'm just an old cop who maybe should
have been put out to pasture long ago.
1241
01:36:39,445 --> 01:36:41,851
There's so much going on
I just don't understand anymore.
1242
01:38:21,796 --> 01:38:23,290
Joey's dead.
1243
01:38:25,800 --> 01:38:27,378
He shot himself.
1244
01:38:40,565 --> 01:38:43,981
How did you hear?
- Morning news, driving down here.
1245
01:38:47,655 --> 01:38:50,408
Did he leave a note?
A note, did he leave a note?
1246
01:38:50,492 --> 01:38:52,568
They didn't say.
1247
01:38:52,828 --> 01:38:53,990
Frank?
- Yeah?
1248
01:38:54,079 --> 01:38:55,787
Can I use your phone?
- Sure.
1249
01:39:01,127 --> 01:39:03,204
Can't have Pop hear it alone.
1250
01:39:03,297 --> 01:39:06,582
This is Liam Casey.
Please leave a message. Thank you.
1251
01:39:08,259 --> 01:39:09,290
I got to get out there.
1252
01:39:20,814 --> 01:39:23,020
Pop. Pop.
1253
01:39:30,366 --> 01:39:31,397
Pop?
1254
01:39:33,285 --> 01:39:34,316
Pop?
1255
01:39:36,287 --> 01:39:38,197
Pop. Pop.
1256
01:39:48,676 --> 01:39:52,045
Peggy, he's not here.
I want to get to the office, come on.
1257
01:39:52,137 --> 01:39:54,214
Just in case he calls.
1258
01:40:05,984 --> 01:40:07,644
You want me to come up with you?
1259
01:40:10,072 --> 01:40:12,147
I'll get some work done.
1260
01:40:12,490 --> 01:40:15,112
Hey, whose car?
- Mine.
1261
01:40:15,201 --> 01:40:16,744
Then move it.
1262
01:40:17,412 --> 01:40:20,946
Sean, are you all right?
- Yeah.
1263
01:40:37,099 --> 01:40:39,222
Detective Casey, nice to see you.
1264
01:40:39,643 --> 01:40:42,597
I'm real sorry
I had to call you at home, your honor.
1265
01:40:43,271 --> 01:40:44,931
Thanks for seeing me.
- No big deal. Come on in.
1266
01:40:44,982 --> 01:40:46,013
Thank you.
1267
01:40:55,200 --> 01:40:56,659
Come in.
1268
01:41:03,917 --> 01:41:06,041
Is this what I think it is?
1269
01:41:10,299 --> 01:41:11,793
What do you think it is?
1270
01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:15,880
During the trial, there was
a Xerox of the arrest warrant.
1271
01:41:15,972 --> 01:41:19,970
As soon as I saw this
I knew this was the original...
1272
01:41:21,144 --> 01:41:23,979
and that there is probably
a difference between the two.
1273
01:41:26,691 --> 01:41:29,478
Is there?
- Yeah.
1274
01:41:32,528 --> 01:41:35,316
The date was changed and the signature.
1275
01:41:38,409 --> 01:41:41,744
You going to take it to Vigoda?
- I have to.
1276
01:42:03,353 --> 01:42:07,849
I can't. Hear.
I work for him and I'm in love with you.
1277
01:42:18,158 --> 01:42:20,235
I'm the D.A. and
I'm not to destroy evidence.
1278
01:42:20,286 --> 01:42:21,910
It's happened before.
1279
01:42:24,414 --> 01:42:26,372
It wasn't supposed to happen to me
1280
01:42:26,417 --> 01:42:28,742
It's not supposed to happen to any of us
1281
01:42:36,135 --> 01:42:37,961
That's the story, your honor.
1282
01:42:41,974 --> 01:42:47,099
So I came to turn myself in.
- Wow.
1283
01:43:38,782 --> 01:43:39,813
Hello?
1284
01:43:40,407 --> 01:43:42,068
Mr. Casey?
- Yes.
1285
01:43:42,118 --> 01:43:44,194
Impelliteri here.
1286
01:43:45,706 --> 01:43:47,781
Your dad's sitting here with me.
1287
01:43:47,874 --> 01:43:51,159
He's just told me some cock and
bull story about an arrest warrant.
1288
01:43:52,588 --> 01:43:54,330
It seems to me he's confused.
1289
01:43:54,380 --> 01:43:57,749
I distinctly remember filling out
the warrant for him on the raid day.
1290
01:43:58,634 --> 01:44:00,710
What was that date again, Liam?
1291
01:44:02,054 --> 01:44:06,218
October 13th.
- Right, October 13th.
1292
01:44:06,267 --> 01:44:08,937
I can remember it as clearly as
if I were doing it now.
1293
01:44:11,356 --> 01:44:13,478
I was so excited at the idea that
we might bring in Jordan Washington,
1294
01:44:13,566 --> 01:44:15,642
I couldn't wait to fill it out.
1295
01:44:16,110 --> 01:44:18,648
I wished him good luck, I remember that.
1296
01:44:18,738 --> 01:44:21,857
He told me there's another warrant.
floating round. Do you have it?
1297
01:44:22,284 --> 01:44:24,360
Yes, your honor.
1298
01:44:24,451 --> 01:44:26,825
Get rid of it.
I've got the original right here.
1299
01:44:27,414 --> 01:44:30,414
It must have been sent to the house
instead of the office.
1300
01:44:30,500 --> 01:44:32,576
I'll bring it in with me today.
1301
01:44:37,007 --> 01:44:38,417
Thanks, your honor.
1302
01:44:44,555 --> 01:44:49,182
Your honor, may I speak to my father,
please?
1303
01:44:49,810 --> 01:44:51,269
Your son wants you.
1304
01:44:54,399 --> 01:44:56,226
Hey, Seano.
1305
01:44:56,317 --> 01:45:02,569
Pop. Pop?
Did you hear about Joey?
1306
01:45:03,534 --> 01:45:05,609
No.
1307
01:45:10,415 --> 01:45:12,491
What?
1308
01:45:12,834 --> 01:45:14,910
It's bad news, Pop.
1309
01:45:47,118 --> 01:45:50,618
So I'm quitting.
- Why quit?
1310
01:45:53,042 --> 01:45:57,121
Because I can see where it's going:
I owe Impelliteri,
1311
01:45:58,714 --> 01:46:00,540
I don't know who my father owes.
1312
01:46:01,508 --> 01:46:04,343
I owe Peggy. Peggy owes you
for not bringing you the warrant.
1313
01:46:04,427 --> 01:46:06,503
It'll go on forever.
1314
01:46:06,639 --> 01:46:12,179
Oh, goddamn it. Sean, things never
work out as simply as you want them to.
1315
01:46:15,189 --> 01:46:20,728
If Peggy had brought me that warrant,
I don't know that I would have used it.
1316
01:46:23,322 --> 01:46:26,572
I mean it I was after dirty cops,
I got dirty cops.
1317
01:46:26,658 --> 01:46:28,734
Why should I let
that animal back out on the street?
1318
01:46:28,827 --> 01:46:33,287
What about his rights?
- Oh, I'm not perfect.
1319
01:46:34,916 --> 01:46:37,408
I never thought I was perfect.
Do you think you're perfect?
1320
01:46:40,880 --> 01:46:42,292
Not any more.
1321
01:46:44,426 --> 01:46:47,796
My name is McGovern.
Mr. McGovern to you.
1322
01:46:48,722 --> 01:46:51,428
I'm the Assistant to the Assistant
Deputy Administrative Assistant to
1323
01:46:51,516 --> 01:46:53,592
the District Attorney of New York County.
1324
01:46:55,020 --> 01:46:57,262
We're starting something new this year.
1325
01:46:58,315 --> 01:47:01,186
The District Attorney will be giving
the opening orientation lecture.
1326
01:47:01,277 --> 01:47:03,269
Ladies and gentlemen,
District Attorney Casey.
1327
01:47:14,623 --> 01:47:16,948
Eight months ago I was ready to resign.
1328
01:47:18,501 --> 01:47:22,167
It was all so much more complicated
than I imagined.
1329
01:47:24,842 --> 01:47:29,089
It started when I was an ADA,
just as you hope to be soon.
1330
01:47:31,348 --> 01:47:33,424
My first time out,
first time in Night Court...
1331
01:47:33,517 --> 01:47:35,594
I had eighteen cases to handle.
1332
01:47:36,019 --> 01:47:38,096
And as you'll soon find out,
you have to arraign your perps...
1333
01:47:38,189 --> 01:47:40,264
within
twenty-four hours of their arrest.
1334
01:47:43,110 --> 01:47:44,902
One half hour before court...
1335
01:47:44,945 --> 01:47:47,353
I finally got all my yellow sheets
down from Albany...
1336
01:47:47,406 --> 01:47:49,565
and the first guy up
I've never seen him before...
1337
01:47:50,451 --> 01:47:55,196
but his yellow sheet shows he's got
one prior conviction for robbery.
1338
01:47:56,832 --> 01:48:00,876
But I don't know if he mugged an old
lady in an alley to feed his habit...
1339
01:48:01,878 --> 01:48:05,461
or he stole food from a supermarket
to feed his kids.
1340
01:48:10,012 --> 01:48:12,171
And later I got involved in a case
where...
1341
01:48:12,223 --> 01:48:15,638
breaking the law was more just
than upholding the law.
1342
01:48:18,646 --> 01:48:20,473
And upholding the law killed a man.
1343
01:48:23,692 --> 01:48:26,977
I don't have to prepare you for a job
where circumstances are black and white.
1344
01:48:27,780 --> 01:48:30,271
I was lucky I had a case like that
to launch my career.
1345
01:48:32,118 --> 01:48:34,525
But you're going to spend
most of your time in the grey areas.
1346
01:48:36,706 --> 01:48:39,622
Out there, that's where you're to come
face to face with who you really are.
1347
01:48:42,752 --> 01:48:44,829
That's a frightening thing to ask of you.
1348
01:48:45,797 --> 01:48:48,039
It might take a lifetime to figure out.
1349
01:48:48,884 --> 01:48:50,923
For me, I know I have two things.
1350
01:48:53,305 --> 01:48:55,760
I know I still have complete faith
in the law.
1351
01:48:58,936 --> 01:49:01,011
And I also know I'm fallible.
1352
01:49:01,814 --> 01:49:04,684
And I just hope
God is not finished with me yet.
1353
01:49:07,319 --> 01:49:11,073
For you, it's going to depend on
who you are right now.
1354
01:49:11,110 --> 01:49:13,150
If you're in it for the hustle...
1355
01:49:13,201 --> 01:49:17,578
I guarantee you,
you're going to come across a case...
1356
01:49:18,081 --> 01:49:22,458
that you actually believe in
and you're going to lose it.
1357
01:49:24,003 --> 01:49:26,576
It's going to break your heart
and you'll be damned.
1358
01:49:27,798 --> 01:49:29,957
If you think you're a saint,
I guarantee you...
1359
01:49:30,050 --> 01:49:32,802
you're going to come across a case where
you're going to have to make a deal...
1360
01:49:32,886 --> 01:49:34,962
and you're going to win it.
1361
01:49:36,683 --> 01:49:38,342
And that'll break your heart...
1362
01:49:41,186 --> 01:49:42,646
and you'll be damned.
1363
01:49:44,607 --> 01:49:47,228
So you might as well believe in it
from the beginning.
1364
01:49:48,110 --> 01:49:50,269
Hurts less that way.
1365
01:49:55,910 --> 01:50:00,288
If you get tired, get out,
because I'll fire you.
1366
01:50:01,373 --> 01:50:03,450
If you find that the funny stories are
starting to matter more than the case,
1367
01:50:03,543 --> 01:50:05,452
get out or I'm going to fire you.
1368
01:50:07,381 --> 01:50:10,500
And if, God forbid, you wake up one day
and you just don't care anymore...
1369
01:50:10,550 --> 01:50:13,005
then please, just get out.
1370
01:50:13,804 --> 01:50:15,594
Because then I'm going to really
have to fire you.
1371
01:50:19,767 --> 01:50:22,008
But if you're ready to take
that kind of risk...
1372
01:50:25,814 --> 01:50:27,012
welcome.
1373
01:50:29,527 --> 01:50:31,983
And as an old retired cop
used to say to me:
1374
01:50:35,004 --> 01:50:36,710
'Nail it.'
1375
01:50:38,151 --> 01:50:40,774
And good luck to you all.
