PREVIOUSLY ON HILL STREET BLUES.

WELCOME RANDALL BUTTMAN AND LAWRENCE SWAN.

I'M BUTTMAN.

I GET A RUSH OFF OF YOU

I HAVEN'T FELT FOR A LONG TIME.

DO YOU WANT TO TAKE ME HOME NOW?

WORD GETS OUT FAST

ABOUT HOW MANY FEATHERS YOU MANAGED TO RUFFLE

YOUR FIRST DAY ON THE JOB.

HEY, I DON'T HAVE AN EGG OUTFIT, SIR.

MY HUSBAND'S BEEN MURDERED.

L... LET GO.

ARE YOU S... SURE, LARRY?

ITEM SIX. PROSTITUTE KILLER.

HOOKER IN MIDTOWN WAS KILLED LAST NIGHT.

IT'S THE FIFTH IN FIVE WEEKS.

THE M.O. IS CONSISTENT.

WOMAN'S IN HER APARTMENT.

BLUDGEONED AND STRANGLED.

POINTS TO SOME JOHN DOING IT.

UH, BUT SO FAR, THIS IS ALL WE'VE GOT

FROM THE ONE SURVIVOR.

MALE CAUC. 18 TO 25.

SHORT HAIR. THAT'S NOT MUCH TO GO ON.

MIDTOWN'S RUNNING THE SHOW, BUT...

LET'S KEEP OUR EYES PEELED

IN THE HOOKER CORRIDORS, OKAY?

ITEM SEVEN.

FALLING PLASTER IN YOUR BATHROOM, LADIES.

SPREAD THE WORD. THERE IS NO PEEP HOLE INVOLVED.

- UH-HUH. - ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

NO, NO. NO. IT'S JUST DRY ROT.

NEXT ITEM. DAY TWO.

OPERATION DRUMSTICK. EH.

MICK BELKER UNDERCOVER

AGAINST FAST FOOD ROBBERIES.

TODAY'S POST. UNCLE FRIAR, NUMBER THREE.

- 116th AND UTICA. - - GETTING USED TO THE CHICKEN?

USED TO BE A CANDY STORE, IF I REMEMBER.

NOW, MICK, I KNOW YOU'RE NOT GONNA TOOT YOUR OWN HORN,

BUT HOW MANY COPS TOSSED INTO JAIL BY SOME WHACKO JUDGE

WOULD HAVE THE PRESENCE OF MIND

TO OVERHEAR A CHANCE REMARK

AND TURN IT INTO A CAPTURE OF A MURDER ONE SUSPECT?

HUH?

THAT'S A GOOD JOB, DETECTIVE.

REMINDING ALL PERSONNEL,

THERE'S A LECTURE HERE, UM,

END OF TOUR, TOMORROW.

GUY FROM LEGAL DIVISION IS, UM...

GONNA TELL US ABOUT HOW THE SUPREME COURT'S

TAKEN THE HANDCUFFS OFF ON SEARCH AND SEIZURE.

LET'S SEE HOW WE CAN MAKE THIS WORK FOR...

WORK FOR US.

I JUST GOT THIS.

PATROLMAN LAWRENCE SWAN.

ROOKIE.

RODE WITH SERGEANT BATES YESTERDAY.

HE HUNG HIMSELF THIS A.M.

IN REGARDS TO THIS,

SERGEANT BATES, OFFICERS HILL AND BUTTMAN,

DETECTIVE WASHINGTON... REPORT TO CAPTAIN FURILLO

IN HIS OFFICE AT 0730 HOURS.

WELL, WHAT DO YOU SAY?

LET'S GET OUT THERE. LET'S DO IT TO THEM

BEFORE THEY DO IT TO US.

ALL RIGHT.

"I HAVE BEEN VIOLATED, SHAMED, AND HUMILIATED

"BY PEOPLE I THOUGHT WERE MY FRIENDS.

"HOW IN HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO LIVE WITH THAT?

"HOW CAN I FACE PEOPLE EVERY DAY WHO ARE

"MAKING JOKES ABOUT ME BEHIND MY BACK?

"I'M BETTER OFF DEAD.

I'M JUST FINISHING WHAT THE REST OF YOU STARTED."

AND THEN IN A SEPARATE NOTE TO THE AUNT WHO RAISED HIM.

"YOU'RE BETTER OFF WITHOUT ME.

"ALL I WOULD'VE BROUGHT YOU WAS DISGRACE.

I LOVE YOU. I'M SORRY. I CAN'T EXPLAIN."

WHAT IN THE HELL WENT ON IN THAT BACK ROOM LAST NIGHT, BUTTMAN?

WHAT'S SWAN REFERRING TO?

HONEST TO GOD, IT WAS JUST A PARTY, CAPTAIN.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT THERE.

NEAL, THE MANAGER SAYS HE HAD TO ASK

YOU AND BOBBY TO COOL IT DOWN.

AND WE DID, CAPTAIN.

DID YOU SEE SWAN AT ALL?

NO.

ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES OF ANY KIND?

I CAN'T PROVE IT.

I DIDN'T SEE MONEY EXCHANGE HANDS,

BUT... IN MY OPINION,

OFFICER BUTTMAN WAS WITH A PROSTITUTE.

THE GIRL SHE'S REFERRING TO IS LOIS.

AND SHE TOLD ME SHE WORKED FOR THE TELEPHONE COMPANY.

- IN WHAT CAPACITY? - SIR, I DON'T KNOW.

IF SHE WAS A PROSTITUTE,

SHE DIDN'T ASK ME FOR ANY MONEY.

AT ANY TIME DURING THE EVENING, DID YOU SEE HER WITH SWAN?

NO, SIR, I DID NOT.

THERE'LL BE A FULL INVESTIGATION.

LUCY, I WANT AN HOURLY ON YOUR TOUR WITH SWAN YESTERDAY.

BUTTMAN, I WANT A 716 ON EVERYTHING

YOU DID AND SAW AT THE KUBIAK.

YES, SIR.

NEAL? DID YOU SEE THIS INDIVIDUAL LAST NIGHT?

LAST NIGHT?

YEAH. FOR A SECOND.

FIND HER.

DON'T THINK I DON'T SEE YOU UP THERE, MISTER.

OKAY. THAT'S IT.

I WON'T STAND FOR THIS.

THIS SQUAD GROUP SHOULD BE KEPT ON A LEASH.

UM, ANYTHING... ANYTHING WRONG, MRS. FURILLO?

WHEN A WOMAN CAN'T ENJOY THE SIMPLE RIGHTS OF PRIVACY

IN THE BATHROOM, I SHOULD SAY THERE IS.

THERE WAS SOMEBODY LOOKING DOWN AT ME.

WHERE FROM?

WHERE ELSE? THE CEILING!

I LOOKED UP. I HEARD A SOUND.

THERE'S AN EYEBALL STARING RIGHT DOWN AT ME.

YEAH, I'VE HEARD IT, TOO.

BUT MRS. FURILLO, WHO COULD BE UP THERE?

MY GUESS IS SOME PERVERT

CRAWLING AROUND, LOOKING FOR THRILLS.

MAINTENANCE ISN'T DUE TILL 2:00.

NO VISITORS ARE LOGGED IN.

UH, YOU SURE IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN INSECTS

OR MAYBE A LARGE RODENT?

WITH GLASSES?

WE HAVE A 9-11.

ARMED ROBBERY IN PROGRESS.

SEE SURPLUS STORE.

CORNER PEOPLE'S DRIVE.

124th STREET.

S.I.D. WILL COVER THE PRECINCTS.

EVERY ROOKIE WHO WAS AT THE KUBIAK.

GOOD, LET'S GET SOMEBODY INTERVIEWING OVER AT THE LODGE.

AND I WANT SWAN'S RECORDS FROM THE ACADEMY.

WANT HIS APPLICATIONS, MEDICAL, EVERYTHING.

MAYBE HIS HIGH SCHOOL FILES AS WELL.

YEAH, BUT FIRST THE ACADEMY. LET'S TRY TO ROUND UP HOWARD.

I WANNA TALK TO ALL OF YOU IN A MINUTE.

- CHIEF. - PITY, HUH, FRANK?

JUST A PITY.

A PROMISING YOUNG LIFE LIKE THIS.

- DREADFUL. - NOW I'LL HAVE TO MAKE A STATEMENT.

MIND IF I GET A GANDER AT THE SWAN SONG?

SWAN'S SUICID NOTE?

"ROOKIE HANGS SELF AFTER HAZING"

MAKES PAGE ONE, FRANK.

IT'S CRUCIAL WE DO NOT APPEAR TO BE

SITTING ON OUR THUMBS.

IT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN A HAZING, CHIEF.

HAZING USUALLY REQUIRES SENIOR OFFICERS.

FRANK. YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT,

AND NEITHER DO I.

KNOW WHAT I DO THINK?

THIS LARRY SWAN WAS A WIMP.

HAZING'S AS OLD AS THE HILLS, MON FRIEND.

HELL, WHEN I CAME UP, WE HAD A PARTY.

NURSES FROM ST. MARY'S.

I PASSED OUT ON PURPLE PASSIONS

WITH A DAMSEL IN A DeSOTO.

WOKE UP HANDCUFFED TO A HYDRANT

OUT IN FARMINGDALE.

NAKED RIGHT DOWN TO MY JOCK STRAP.

AND I DIDN'T COMMIT SUICIDE.

FULL BORE, FRANK.

I'M ABSOLUTELY SURE

I WAS GONNA SCORE, ALL RIGHT?

SO THE...

HOW'S YOUR HOMICIDE COMING?

WARREN REYNOLDS? NO WITNESS.

NO WEAPON. GOING NOWHERE FAST.

I UNDERSTAND THE VICTIM'S WIFE WAS IN HERE YESTERDAY.

YEAH, IT WAS AN UNRELATED INCIDENT.

I PUT HER STATEMENT ON YOUR DESK.

- IS SHE A SUSPECT? - NOTHING POINTS TO HER.

PERSONALLY, I THINK SHE'S HIDING SOMETHING.

THEN FOLLOW IT UP.

UH, CAPTAIN.

LOOK, I WAS WITH HER LAST NIGHT.

WITH WHOM?

THE VICTIM'S WIFE. CAROLINE REYNOLDS.

WITH HER?

I WAS THERE WHEN SHE GOT THE CALL ABOUT HER HUSBAND.

I KNOW HOW IT'S GOTTA LOOK, CAPTAIN.

WOMAN'S CAR GETS BUSTED INTO.

I PULL HER CASE. WE WIND UP BETWEEN THE SHEETS,

AND HER HUSBAND GETS WHACKED THAT SAME NIGHT.

IF IT SEEMED LIKE SHE WAS

TRYING TO HIDE SOMETHING, THAT WAS IT.

SHE THOUGHT I'D GET IN TROUBLE WITH THE DEPARTMENT.

WHAT YOU DO ON YOUR TIME IS YOUR BUSINESS, J.D.

WE DON'T HAVE A POLICY TO COVER SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

NEITHER DO I.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER NOT SEEING HER ANYMORE

UNTIL AFTER THE INVESTIGATION IS FINISHED.

AND I'D LIKE YOU TO GIVE A STATEMENT.

ABSOLUTELY. I'VE GOT NOTHING TO HIDE, SIR.

GOOD.

HOW ABOUT I GO WRITE THIS UP FOR YOU GUYS?

YEAH, THAT'D BE GOOD, J.D.

WHAT?

I'M GONNA RUN THE WIFE.

JUST FOR THE HELL OF IT.

GENTLEMEN?

UH. I JUST RECEIVED WORD LAST NIGHT

THAT THE PRECINCT HAS BEEN AWARDED

A FEDERAL STUDY GRANT.

OH. CONGRATULATIONS, FRANK.

- VERY GOOD. - WHAT'S THE AGENDA?

WELL, ITS STATED OBJECTIVE IS

COMPILATION OF DATA IN ORDER TO JUDGE

THE FEASIBILITY OF LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT INTERACTION

WITH CONSTITUENT CIVILIAN PATROL ORGANIZATIONS

IN THE BEHAVIORAL MANAGEMENT

OF HIGH-PROFILE RECIDIVISTS.

OUR FEDERAL TAX DOLLARS AT WORK.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

IT MEANS WE'RE SUPPOSED TO TRY TO PULL TOGETHER

STATISTICS TO SEE IF NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH GROUPS

CAN HELP US KEEP TABS ON HARDCORE REPEAT OFFENDERS.

IT RUNS, UM, SIX MONTHS.

EH, A REAL BOONDOGGLE.

THERE ARE ALSO $6,000 IN THE BUDGET

FOR A PROGRAM ADMINISTRATOR.

AND IN THE INTERESTS OF FAIRNESS,

I'D LIKE TO SUGGEST THAT THE THREE OF YOU

SPLIT THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND MONEY.

- WE AGREED? - SURE, WHY NOT?

WELL, I DON'T KNOW, FRANK.

DO YOU THINK IT'S WISE? A TROIKA

FOR ALL THAT PAPERWORK?

COME ON, HOWARD, TWO GRAND IS FILLING YOUR POCKET.

BUT I'M SAYING THAT, GIVEN THE SPECIFICATIONS,

MAYBE... MAYBE IT IS PROPERLY A ONE-MAN JOB.

FORGIVE ME, FRANK.

BUT I ALSO AGREE THAT A PROGRAM OF THIS NATURE

DEMANDS THE EFFORT OF A SINGLE DEDICATED ADMINISTRATOR

AND THE MONEY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

THAT'S RIGHT.

FINE. YOU DO IT, I'LL KEEP THE $2,000.

- ALL RIGHT. HOLD ON. - I'M SORRY. THAT'S HOW I FEEL.

SINCE WE CAN'T SEEM TO GET TOGETHER ON THIS,

I'M GONNA HAVE TO CHOOSE ONE OF YOU.

I'LL GIVE YOU MY DECISION AT THE END OF THE BUSINESS DAY.

FRANK, COULD... COULD I HAVE A LOOK AT THE COURSE FILES?

MAY I ALSO?

HAVE SOME COPIES MADE.

SHE'S BEAUTIFUL. SHE'S SMART.

SHE'S SENSITIVE. SHE'S AN AMAZING LOVER.

NOT TO MENTION THAT SHE JUST STRUCK IT RICH.

I GOT ONE THING TO WHISPER TO YOU, J.D.

TAX-FREE MUNICIPAL BONDS.

HEY, ARE WE JEALOUS HERE OR WHAT?

J.D., I'M GONNA REMIND YOU ONCE.

THAT THIS BEAUTIFUL AND SENSITIVE WOMAN

THAT YOU'RE SO DEEPLY IN LOVE

DIDN'T TELL YOU THE TRUTH ABOUT, LIKE...

LIKE, FOR OPENERS, THE FACT THAT SHE'S MARRIED.

HEY, I'M NOT DENYING WE GOT

A FEW THINGS TO CLEAR UP, NEAL.

BUT COME ON. THIS CAN BE THE MOST MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIP

I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE.

WELL, I THINK, UH, WHEN THE DUST SETTLES,

YOU SHOULD BE SEEING THE LOVER.

HEY, I'M GONNA TAKE HER TO LUNCH.

I'M GONNA TELL HER EXACTLY THE SAME THING.

COME ON, JOE.

HERE YOU GO, HONEY.

THAT VAN IS STILL OUT THERE, BOBBY.

- WHICH ONE? - THE ONE WE SAW THIS MORNING

WHEN WE COME OUT OF THAT PLACE...

DOREEN'S ON CENTRAL E. BLUE VAN.

THERE WAS A LOT OF VANS ON THE STREET THERE, RENKO.

IN THE MEANTIME, I HAVE A FEELING

I'M BEING FOLLOWED ALL MORNING LONG.

SON, CAN YOU PUT TWO MORE OF THEM FRIED CAKES

- IN MY ORDER, PLEASE? - MINE, TOO.

YOU FOUND BUTTMAN'S PARTY GIRL?

NEGATIVE. SHE'S NOT IN THE BOOKS.

AND NO ROOKIES CAME FOR HER?

KID FROM POLK AVENUE'S OUT ON PATROL.

- I'M LOOKING FOR 'EM NOW. - DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH.

WHERE'S BUTTMAN?

SAID HE HAD TO RUN A COUPLE OF ERRANDS.

HOW LONG HAS HE BEEN GONE?

I DON'T KNOW. ABOUT A HALF HOUR?

AND YOU GAVE HIM THE UNIT?

HE SAID HE'D BE BACK IN TEN MINUTES.

WHAT IF WE HAVE AN ALL-UNIT?

COME ON, LUCE. DON'T START PULLING RANK ON ME, ALL RIGHT?

HEY, I'LL PULL RANK WHEN I HAVE TO. IT'S MY JOB.

SORRY, JOE, THE LINE WAS A MILE LATE.

WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN, BUD?

I WAS AT THE BANK.

DID YOU NOTIFY THE STATION?

I CLEARED IT WITH JOE.

YEAH? YOU ASK ME, YOU WERE OUT THERE

CLEARING YOUR LAME STORY WITH YOUR BUDDIES.

- HEY. - GO AHEAD. SAY SOMETHING.

LIKE IT'S MY TIME OF MONTH.

COME ON. TAKE IT EASY, LUCE.

AM I MISSING SOMETHING HERE?

IS THIS "GET BUTTMAN"?

"CRUCIFY BUTTMAN"?

THE KID I WAS PARTNERED WITH YESTERDAY IS DEAD.

ON ACCOUNT OF SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE COVERING UP.

HEY, THAT'S OUT OF LINE. YOU GOT NO PROOF!

I DON'T NEED PROOF TO KNOW THAT SOMETHING HAPPENED.

THE GUY I SAW AT THE KUBIAK LAST NIGHT

WAS NOT GONNA GO HOME AND KILL HIMSELF.

WELL, I GUESS YOU WERE WRONG ABOUT THAT.

YOU'RE ON REPORT, BUTTMAN.

FOR LEAVING PATROL WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION.

FINE. AND I'M FILING A HARASSMENT COMPLAINT.

I DON'T NEED TO PUT UP WITH THIS.

- HEY, HEY, LITTLE BOY. - HEY, LUCE. LUCE.

- QUIET DOWN THERE. - GREAT.

IT'S IN YOUR JACKET, BABE.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH HER? SHE DOESN'T LIKE MEN?

HEY, DO ME A FAVOR, WOULD YA?

SHUT UP.

SHE STARTED IT.

YOU'RE A FRIED EGG UNTIL TEN.

YOU GET A HALF-HOUR BREAK, AND THEN YOU'RE A CHICKEN.

- GREAT. - THESE ARE FOR OUR

NEW BREAKFAST SPECIALS.

EGG'S LOW-PROFILE.

IT'S EASY-GOING.

IT'S SUNNY. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

YEAH. I THINK SO.

PEOPLE ARE GROUCHY THIS EARLY,

SO JUST HAND OUT THE COUPONS AND SMILE.

AND YOU DON'T WANT ME TO SAY

"BREAKFAST BONANZA AT UNCLE FRIAR'S"?

OH, SAY IT, SURE.

RELAX. LET THE COSTUME WORK FOR YOU.

HEY, MOE... PHONE CALL.

I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

- YOU ALL SET? - OH YEAH.

YOU LOOK GOOD.

BREAKFAST BONANZA AT UNCLE FRIAR'S!

FREE MEDIUM-SIZED COFFEE.

BREAKFAST BONANZA RIGHT HERE AT UNCLE FRIAR'S.

MEDIUM-SIZED COFFEE. BREAKFAST BONANZA AT...

DON'T COME NEAR ME. DON'T YOU TOUCH ME.

GET A JOB!

DAMN...

HEY, YO, RONNIE? RONNIE GARFIELD.

- YEAH? - NEAL WASHINGTON. HILL STREET.

I SAW YOU IN THE BACK ROOM IN THAT PARTY LAST NIGHT.

- YOU OPENED THE DOOR. - YEAH. I REMEMBER.

THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT.

HEY, LOOK, MAN. I JUST TALKED TO I.A.D.

I JUST TOLD THEM WHAT WENT DOWN.

I JUST SPENT TWO HOURS WITH 'EM.

I'M LOOKING FOR A GIRL WHO WAS BACK THERE.

A HOOKER BY THE NAME OF LOIS.

I DIDN'T SEE ANY HOOKERS.

I MEAN, I FEEL REAL BAD FOR LARRY,

AND I'M SORRY. WISH I COULD DO SOMETHING FOR HIM,

- BUT I CAN'T. - LISTEN TO ME, MAN.

I KNOW ALL ABOUT CODES OF SILENCE, YOU UNDERSTAND?

I KNOW ALL THE EXTRAS BECAUSE YOU'RE A ROOKIE.

BECAUSE YOU'RE BLACK.

NOW, YOU SEEM LIKE A GOOD KID.

NOW, YOU WANNA DO SOMETHING TO HELP SWAN?

AT LEAST HELP ME FIND THIS GIRL.

I NEVER SAW HER BEFORE A DAY IN MY LIFE.

- DID BUTTMAN BRING HER? - I DON'T KNOW WHO BROUGHT HER.

I'M SORRY. I DON'T KNOW ONE THING ABOUT IT.

MOST GUYS GONNA DO THEMSELVES IN,

THEY WAIT A COUPLE YEARS. LET THINGS STACK UP ON 'EM.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU COULD PACK IN TO ONE DAY ON THE JOB

MAKE YOU WANNA TAKE THE NECKTIE TRANSFER.

HE MUST'VE HAD A LOT GOING ON IN HIS MIND.

WHOO, HE MUST'VE HAD A NON-STOP CIRCUS OF HORRORS

AND EXTRA ADDED ATTRACTIONS.

WE GOT OURSELVES TWO JELLIES BACK THERE, DIDN'T WE?

YOU REALLY PACKING IT AWAY, RENKO.

MEDICINAL PURPOSES, BOBBY HILL.

- OH. - EVER SINCE THAT BABY'S COME,

MY BIORHYTHMS HAVE BEEN IN TRANSITION.

MY LITTLE DARYL ANN'S LIKE A LUNATIC

WITH THIS POST-MORTEM DEPRESSION STUFF.

POST-PARTUM, I THINK, ISN'T IT?

ALL I KNOW IS, EVERY TIME I LOOK AT HER,

SHE STARTS TURNING ON THE FAUCETS

LIKE SOMEBODY JUST KILLED HER DOG.

A MAN CAN'T STAY REGULAR IN AN ENVIRONMENT LIKE THAT.

LOOK. THIS BOY RIGHT HERE.

IS THAT IT?

- I DON'T KNOW. I SEE IT. - THE VAN. THE VAN WE SAW

- THIS MORNING, THAT WE DIDN'T TAIL? - YEAH?

WELL, WITH ALL THE HARD CRIMINALS

WE PUT AWAY OVER THE YEARS, I GUESS

IT'S A STRONG POSSIBILITY.

WHAT?

ALL RIGHT, LET'S HERE...

HEY, WHAT... WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

ALL RIGHT, GET OUT OF THAT VAN, EVERYBODY.

GET OUT OF THAT VAN, LADY. STEP OUT HERE.

EXCUSE ME.

OFFICER, LET ME EXPLAIN.

LYNN WILLIAMS, INVESTIGATIVE ACTION TEAM.

BARRY, SHOW THE OFFICER SOME I.D.

INSTIGATIVE ACTION TEAM?

HEY, YOU'RE ON CHANNEL THREE, AREN'T YOU?

THAT'S RIGHT. I GUESS WE'RE BETTER OFF

LEAVING THE UNDERCOVER STUFF TO YOU GUYS.

INVESTIGATIVE ACTION TEAM.

I SEEN YOU. I SEEN YOU DO THEM REPORTS.

- THE MORNING REPORTS. - RIGHT. YOU DID ONE

ON SOME FIREMEN, RIGHT?

THAT WAS PART OF OUR SERIES ON CITY EMPLOYEE PRODUCTIVITY.

RIGHT. WHAT'D YOU CALL THAT REPORT?

IT WAS CALLED "THE SEATS OF CITY GOVERNMENT."

"THE SEATS OF CITY GOVERNMENT."

ISN'T THAT CLEVER?

ISN'T THAT CLEVER, BOBBY HILL?

"THE SEATS OF CITY GOVERNMENT."

SO WHAT THE HELL YOU DOING FOLLOWING US AROUND, LADY?

YOU TRYING TO CATCH US GOOFING OFF?

- NOT AT ALL. - HEY, RENKO, JUST...

IF I RECALL CORRECTLY, THERE'S A COUPLE OF INDIVIDUALS

FROM THE SANITATION DEPARTMENT GOT FIRED

AFTER ONE OF YOUR HATCHET JOBS.

THEY WERE SPENDING THEIR AFTERNOONS IN A MASSAGE PARLOR.

THERE'S A LOT OF TENSION IN THEM JOBS.

- RICO, TAKE IT EASY. - HOW DO YOU TAKE OUT

YOUR TENSION, OFFICER? DONUTS?

OUR CONTRACT SPECIFICALLY CALLS FOR

- A MORNING COFFEE BREAK. - OH, COME ON.

FOUR DONUT SHOPS IN TWO AND A HALF HOURS?

FILM THIS! FILM THIS, LADY!

- HEY, W... WAIT! - DO YOU SEE THIS?

I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL FOR SIX WEEKS

WITH TUBES RUNNING OUT OF MY BODY

BECAUSE I WAS DOING MY JOB.

AND I WILL EAT MY DONUTS WHENEVER

AND WHEREVER THE SPIRIT MOVES ME.

- THANK YOU VERY MUCH! - GUY THINKS HE'S L.B.J.

HOW'D YOU LIKE IT IF I CAME AND SAT DOWN NEXT TO YOUR DESK

AND FILMED EVERY TIME YOU WENT TO THE POWDER ROOM

OR WENT UP THERE AND GET SOME WATER OR SOMETHING?

- HOW'D YOU LIKE THAT, LADY? - UH, MA'AM...

I THINK IT'S BEST IF YOU DIDN'T FOLLOW US AROUND ANYMORE.

YOU CAN BET ON THAT.

NICE TALKING TO YOU, OFFICER.

GET THIS VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD.

BOBBY HILL!

BOBBY HILL!

HEY, BUTTMAN.

LET ME GIVE YOU ONE MORE CHANCE TO MAKE THIS RIGHT.

WHERE'S LOIS?

YOU KNOW, GUY, YOU REALLY ARE GOOD WITH THAT TOOTHPICK.

I LIKE THAT.

COME ON, BUTTMAN.

YOU MAKE THIS TOO EASY, BUTTMAN.

JENNINGS OF I.A.D. SAYS THERE'S NOTHING ON THE GIRL

- FROM ANY OF THE ROOKIES. - BUTTMAN'S LYING, CAPTAIN.

I'M GONNA CHECK OUT THE MUG BOOKS.

CAPTAIN. LIEUTENANT HARMON. I.A.D. LINE TWO.

THANKS, STAN.

- FRANK, A MINUTE. - SURE, HOWARD.

YOU KNOW, I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT,

AND I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A REAL PITCH

FOR THIS FEDERAL STUDY IDEA.

IT SEEMS TO ME THERE'S A KERNEL OF A NOTION HERE

THAT COULD GALVANIZE OUR... OUR CIVILIAN POPULATION

INTO A SELF-PATROLLING RESOURCE

- OF UNPRECEDENTED... - HOWARD, DO YOU THINK

MAYBE YOU COULD JUST PUT THIS INTO WRITING?

OH, SURE. SURE. WHY NOT?

WHOA! JUDAS PRIEST.

NOW, YOU LISTEN TO ME, BOBBY HILL.

WHAT WITH WILD PARTIES

AND ROOKIES DECEASING THEMSELVES,

YOU DON'T THINK THE TOP BRASS IS GONNA

BE DISPOSED TOWARDS A WITCH-HUNT?

YOU'RE GONNA GIVE YOURSELF AN ULCER, RENKO.

I'M TELLING YOU, IF WE ARE SEEN

EATING OUR WEIGHT IN DONUTS

ON THE TELEVISION SET, IN THIS CITY,

WE'RE GONNA BE HUNG OUT TO DRY.

I ONLY HAD ONE, PAL.

DON'T SWEAT IT, RENKO.

MAYBE YOUR BELLY'LL SCARE HER OFF.

I'M LOOKING TOWARD A FUTURE

THAT IS CLOUDY WITH UNCERTAINTY.

NEWLY-MARRIED, NEWLY-FATHERED, AND NOW NEWLY-FIRED.

WOULD YOU JUST SHUT UP?

I'M GONNA TAKE CARE OF IT.

WHAT YOU GONNA DO?

I'M GONNA REASON WITH THE WOMAN. IF THAT DOESN'T WORK,

I'LL TRY HONESTY.

WHAT IF THAT DOESN'T WORK?

I DON'T KNOW. IF MY BACK'S AGAINST THE WALL,

THERE'S NO TELLING WHAT I MIGHT DO.

YES? HELLO, THERE. IS, UH...

IS LYNN WILLIAMS THERE?

OH, FRANK?

YEAH, RAY?

I'VE GONE THROUGH SWAN'S POLICE ACADEMY FOLDER.

- AND? - EVERYTHING IS IN ORDER.

HIS STAMMER WAS NOTED,

BUT JUDGED WITHIN TOLERABLE LIMITS.

AND UNLIKELY TO JEOPARDIZE PATROL EFFECTIVENESS.

ANYBODY OVER THERE EVER DO AN IN-DEPTH?

- APPARENTLY NOT. - THANKS, RAY.

FRANK?

ABOUT THIS ADMINISTRATIVE JOB.

YEAH, RAY?

I DID NOT WANT TO SPEAK TO YOU IN FRONT OF HOWARD AND HENRY

FOR FEAR OF APPEARING SELF-SERVING.

I UNDERSTAND.

WELL. THERE ARE THREE THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO SAY.

ONE. I WOULD VERY MUCH

LIKE TO HAVE THIS JOB.

I BELIEVE I CAN MODESTLY CLAIM

THAT MY EXPERIENCE WITH OUR COMPUTER SYSTEMS

MAKES ME THE MOST QUALIFIED.

THAT'S A GOOD POINT.

TWO. AND I DON'T MEAN TO BE CRITICAL,

BUT GIVEN THE NUMBER OF PLUMBS THAT HAVE GONE

TO OTHERS IN OUR PRECINCT,

PERHAPS IT IS FAIR THAT ONE SHOULD NOW COME TO ME.

THREE. WE HAVE JUST BEEN TOLD THAT ROSA'S COUSIN,

YOLANDA, IN MIAMI BEACH?

SHE'S SERIOUSLY ILL AND NEEDS MONEY

FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT.

I'M NOT HERE WITH HATS IN MY HANDS.

I'M SIMPLY STATING FACTS.

GEE, RAY, UH...

I'M SORRY ABOUT ROSA'S COUSIN.

THANKS, FRANK. THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY.

FRANK.

- AS WE DISCUSSED. - THANKS, HOWARD.

RAY.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE ME TO PUT SOMETHING IN WRITING...

AH, NO-NO-NO. YOU'VE MADE A VERY PERSUASIVE CASE, RAY.

I'M GLAD YOU THINK SO.

CAPTAIN. LINE FOUR.

- LOGAN, AT THE HEIGHTS. - THANKS, STAN.

FURILLO. YEAH, BUD?

THANKS, BUD.

ANOTHER HOOKER HOMICIDE OVER IN THE HEIGHTS.

SAME M.O. AS THE OTHERS?

HER NAME IS LOIS. LOIS JORDAN.

STAN, RAISE NEAL FOR ME, WOULD YOU, PLEASE?

GET HIM OVER THERE. SEE IF IT'S THE SAME GIRL

- WE'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR. - YES, SIR.

OKAY, OKAY, LET'S MOVE IT, FOLKS. COME ON.

LET'S MOVE IT BACK NOW. COME ON.

- WHERE IS SHE? - BED. WHERE ELSE?

NUDE. CLOTHES WERE ON THE CHAIR.

- FRIEND OF YOURS? - YEAH, RIGHT.

HEY, THANKS, RALEIGH.

LET'S GO, CLEAR IT AWAY.

UNCLE FRIAR'S. FREE SOFT DRINK

WITH EVERY BREAST YOU BUY.

THERE YOU GO, LADY.

UNCLE FRIAR'S!

FREE SOFT DRINK WITH EVERY BREAST YOU BUY.

THERE WE GO, MA'AM. FREE SOFT DRINK

WITH EVERY BREAST YOU BUY.

YEAH? GIVE ME ANOTHER ONE.

MR. CHICKEN CAN'T DO THAT, MA'AM.

HIS BOSS WOULD SQUAWK. ONE COUPON PER VISIT.

MY FEET HURT. YOU GONNA MAKE ME

LEAVE THE PREMISES AND WALK BACK?

LADY, IT'S ONE COUPON PER CUSTOMER.

YOU CHEAP CHICKEN...

LOUD-MOUTH HEN.

PARDON ME, WHAT DID YOU SAY, MR. PERSON?

HEY!

ROBBERY!

BACKUP TO OPERATION DRUMSTICK.

118 AND UTICA.

GET AWAY! GET AWAY FROM ME, MAN!

COME ON, GET OUT OF THERE!

YOU'RE A JERK! GET OUT OF THERE.

I'M A COP! COME ON. AND THAT, TOO.

- WHAT? - WHAT? WHAT?

WHAT AM I LOOKING AT HERE?

WHAT'S THIS?

RELAX, MAN.

- THAT'S THE ROAST? - THAT'S NOT MINE.

I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS IN THERE.

THERE'S A LOT OF HEROIN IN HERE, DIRTBAG.

THERE'S AT LEAST A HUNDRED GRAND OF HEROIN IN HERE.

HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHAT WAS IN THERE?

MIRANDIZE THIS JERK!

HOLD, SPREAD 'EM.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT.

PLEASE. PLEASE, HE CAME IN THE BACK DOOR.

I LEAVE IT OPEN BECAUSE OF THE HEAT.

UH, WAS HE SOMEONE KNOWN TO YOU?

NO, I NEVER SAW HIM BEFORE.

HEY, DID YOU CATCH HIM?

NO, I LOST HIM IN THE SUBWAY.

I'M SORRY.

GREAT. TAKE THE REST OF THE DAY OFF.

WE'RE SHUTTING DOWN.

HEY, CAN YOU TELL US HOW MUCH WAS TAKEN?

YEAH, HE EMPTIED ONE CASH REGISTER.

ABOUT 200 BUCKS.

UH... CAN YOU DESCRIBE THE WEAPON?

I DIDN'T SEE ANY WEAPON. IT HAPPENED TOO FAST.

WELCOME, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

TO THE TENTH ANNUAL...

YOU WON'T FIND A MORE POWERFUL ENGINE

IN THIS NEW CLASS.

TALK ABOUT POWER.

BUT LET'S TAKE A LOOK UNDER THE HOOD.

THAT'S A HIGH-LIFT V8.

FUEL-INJECTED AND COMPUTER-REGULATED

FOR MAXIMUM M.P.G. EFFICIENCY.

EXCUSE ME, MISS.

IS THIS AVAILABLE

WITH THE CRUSHED VELOUR INTERIOR?

YES. WE HAVE A BURGUNY, HARVEST GOLD,

AVOCADO, AND CORNFIELD BLUE.

AND IF I WAS TO MAKE A DOWN PAYMENT OF $6,000,

CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT THE PAYMENTS WOULD BE?

WELL, I'M SURE WE COULD WORK OUT A LITTLE MATHEMATICS ON THAT

IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE ONE OF OUR SALESPEOPLE.

SURE.

UH... I WAS JUST WONDERING ABOUT THE INTERIOR.

BECAUSE I WAS THINKING OF RE-DOING

MY CAR'S UPHOLSTERY.

OKAY. THANKS FOR STOPPING BY.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK, LIEUTENANT?

YOU WANNA TAKE HER FOR A SPIN?

UH, JUST LOOKING, THANKS.

OKAY.

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY.

- BYE. - BYE-BYE.

- HOWARD. - RAY.

MY ACCOUNTANT'S OFFICE IS HERE IN THIS BUILDING.

I WAS ON MY WAY TO TAKE ROSA OUT TO LUNCH.

MM.

GOOD-LOOKING CAR, ISN'T IT?

YES. VERY NICE.

THE CUSTOM INTERIOR.

THE EIGHT-CYLINDER ENGINE IS POWERFUL.

YET THE FUEL-EFFICIENT...

HE WAS A GAMBLER.

A WOMANIZER.

HE WOULDN'T COME HOME FOR WEEKS AT A TIME.

AND WHEN HE DID, HE WAS ABUSIVE.

VERBALLY.

PHYSICALLY.

SEXUALLY.

I'D ALREADY MADE UP MY MIND TO LEAVE HIM.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?

I DON'T KNOW.

I GUESS I WAS AFRAID IT WOULD SPOIL

WHAT WAS HAPPENING BETWEEN US.

I WAS WRONG, JOHN.

AND AS MUCH AS I HATE THE THOUGHT OF IT,

I DON'T THINK WE OUGHT TO SEE EACH OTHER FOR A WHILE.

YEAH. YEAH, I GUESS

THAT'S PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA.

JOHN, YOU ARE AN UNEXPECTED MIRACLE

IN MY LIFE.

YOU MAKE ME FEEL LOVED, PROTECTED.

BUT IF I'M GONNA START NEW, I'M GONNA HAVE TO BE HONEST.

AND IF WHAT I'VE DONE MEANS LOSING YOU...

WHAT? WHAT? ARE YOU KIDDING?

YOU'RE THE BEST THING THAT'S EVER HAPPENED TO ME.

WOULD IT BE AWFUL TO TELL YOU HOW MUCH I WISH WE WERE

IN BED TOGETHER RIGHT NOW?

HOLDING EACH OTHER? TOUCHING...

HEY, COME ON, YOU'RE MAKING ME CRAZY.

I WANT YOU NOW.

I WANT YOU A WEEK FROM NOW.

I WANT YOU A MONTH FROM NOW.

PLEASE WAIT FOR ME.

PLEASE?

I'M HERE.

- SHE'S A CITIZEN. - WHO?

CAROLINE REYNOLDS?

NARY A PARKING TICKET.

ARE YOU SURPRISED, OR ARE YOU JUST DISAPPOINTED?

I DON'T LIKE HER. I DON'T TRUST HER.

I THINK SHE'S A WRONG BROAD.

I THINK SHE MAY HAVE EVEN HAD HER HUSBAND KILLED.

THERE. I SAID IT.

PATS. IT'S A MARRIED WOMAN

HAVING A ONE-NIGHTER WITH A COP.

SO IT'S NOT EXACTLY MARY POPPINS.

IT'S NOT LIZZIE BORDEN EITHER.

CAPTAIN? I HEARD ABOUT THE HOOKER.

YEAH, NEAL'S I.D.'D HER.

THE M.O.'S THE SAME AS THE OTHERS, HUH?

THAT'S THE PRELIMINARY.

WELL, YOU KNOW, BUTTMAN WAS ALONE.

HE LEFT PATROL THIS MORNING FOR ALMOST AN HOUR.

IT COULD BE COPYCAT. THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING.

I CAN'T HELP THINKING THAT.

ALL RIGHT, WE'LL QUESTION HIM WHEN HE COMES IN.

I WAS JUST LOOKING FOR A FEW BUCKS, MAN.

MAYBE A COUPLE OF BAGS.

HOW'D YOU KNOW THERE'D BE SMACK THERE?

I HEARD ON THE STREET THEY WERE DEALING OUT OF THERE.

I JUST TOOK THE SHOT.

I SWEAR, I DIDN'T KNOW THERE'D BE THAT MUCH.

WHERE ARE WE?

IT'S UP TO HIM.

MANAGER DOESN'T KNOW YOU WERE BUSTED, HAROLD.

YOU JUST CONTACT HIM. TELL HIM YOU MADE A MISTAKE.

YOU WANNA GET BACK WHAT YOU TOOK.

MR. BAKER, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS.

YOU'LL BE PROTECTED, HAROLD.

YOU MAKE THE EXCHANGE, WE'LL BUST THE MANAGER OUTSIDE.

- HE WON'T EVEN KNOW YOU WERE INVOLVED. - I'M NOT CONVINCED THEY CAN

- GUARANTEE YOUR SAFETY. - YOUR CLIENT

CAN WORK OFF CHARGES HERE, COUNSELOR.

THREE OUTSTANDING B&E'S.

NOW GRAND LARCENY, POSSESSION.

- WE CAN PLEAD THAT DOWN... - WE'LL DROP ALL CHARGES.

I GOTTA GET BACK ON THE STREET.

I CAN GET YOU INTO THE COUNTY METHODONE PROGRAM

- IN A FEW DAYS. - I GOTTA FIX TODAY!

NOT A FEW DAYS FROM NOW.

IF YOU COOPERATE, YOU CAN WALK.

I'LL DO IT! I'LL DO IT.

DON'T BE AGREE WITH ME.

PLEASE?

IT'S YOUR DECISION.

WORK IT OUT. MICK?

HEY, YO. WHAT'S HAPPENING, TONY?

NEED A WORD WITH YOUR PARTNER.

HEAR THAT SOUND?

IF IT'S ON THAT HOOKER I ASKED YOU ABOUT,

SOMEBODY CAVED HER SKULL IN FIRST.

SO WHAT'RE YOU SAYING? YOU THINK I HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT?

WHAT HAPPENED IN THAT BACK ROOM, GARFIELD?

HEY, COME ON, RON, YOU CAN TALK TO ME.

I TOLD YOU NOTHING. I TOLD EVERYBODY NOTHING.

WELL, WHAT'S NOTHING IN YOUR BOOK, HUH?

- LOOK, YOU'RE NOT I.A.D. - HEY, WILL YOU GET IT

THROUGH YOUR HEAD THAT I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU, MAN?

THEN WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? I'M ROOKIE MEAT,

AND YOU'RE STANDING HERE? LOOK, I GOTTA LIVE WITH PEOPLE.

OH. WE TALKING CODE NOW. IS THAT IT, RONNIE?

THE GREAT COP CODE OF SILENCE?

NEVER RAT ON YOUR BUDDIES?

YOU KNOW, YOU CAN SAY IT'S NOT REAL ALL YOU WANT.

I KNOW IT'S REAL.

OKAY, WHO'S GONNA PROTECT ME IF I TALK TO YOU?

IF I TALK TO YOU, I'M FINISHED.

OH, THAT'S CRAP, MAN.

NOW, YOU COMING FORWARD IS THE LAST CHANCE YOU GOT

TO BECOME A DECENT COP.

LISTEN TO ME, RON. YOU GOT MY WORD, MAN.

YOU'LL BE TAKEN CARE OF.

SO YOU THINK BUTTMAN DID THAT GIRL?

- DID HE HAVE REASON TO? - LOOK, DON'T DANCE ME, ALL RIGHT?

- I GOTTA KNOW. - I DON'T KNOW.

BUT IF HE DID, YOUR SILENCE HAS LET HIM GET AWAY WITH IT,

AND THAT'S A FELONY, JACK.

YOU KNOW, I THINK I'M LOSING IT.

- I FEEL LIKE I'M GOING CRAZY. - HEY, LOOK, MAN.

IF YOU CAN'T TELL THE TRUTH. IF BUTTMAN OR WHOEVER ELSE

HAS YOU SO TIED UP THAT YOU DON'T SEE

THE HARM TO JUSTICE, THEN TO HELL WITH YOU, BROTHER.

BLOCKED IN, I CAN'T GET MY CAR OUT.

THIS BLACK CAR PULLING UP.

TWO OF 'EM.

THE, UH, DRIVER FITS... DESCRIPTION.

AND THE OTHER GUY'S A MONSTER.

THEY'RE JUST ENTERING THE BUILDING.

COPY. FOLLOW 'EM UP.

YEAH, OKAY. WE'RE ON OUR WAY.

HEY, OOPS...

HAROLD. JUST DO LIKE I SAID, ALL RIGHT?

IF THERE'S ANY TROUBLE, I'M GONNA BACK YOU UP.

OKAY. I'M ALL RIGHT.

- YOU'RE ALL RIGHT? - I'M ALL RIGHT.

YEAH.

HAROLD BAKER?

JUST A SECOND.

YEAH.

JUST A SECOND.

LET'S HAVE IT. OPEN IT UP. COUNT IT...

HEY, COOL IT... I HAVE THE MONEY, TOO.

JUST LIKE I PROMISED.

SO YOU'RE A CHAMP? IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT TO HEAR?

- WHAT'RE YOU DOING? - EXPECT ME TO THANK YOU, CHAMP?

POLICE! FREEZE.

ALL RIGHT, DON'T MOVE.

- FREEZE! - DON'T MOVE.

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE. HANDS UP.

DROP THE GUN.

- I'LL KILL HIM. - LET HIM GO.

- DROP IT. - DON'T BE STUPID.

- GREAT... THIS IS GREAT. - DROP IT!

YOU'RE DEAD, PUNK. YOU'RE...

SHUT UP.

- I'M GONNA FIND YOU. - OH, MICK,

- GET HIM OUT OF HERE. - MOVE IT, MOVE IT. GET DOWN.

WHAT ABOUT HIM, MICK?

HE'S GOT IMMUNITY.

YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN, KID.

WE NEED YOU FOR TRIAL, WE'LL CALL YOU.

IT IS RIGHT HERE.

- NATALIE? - WE GOT IT, BELKER.

OVER HERE.

GIVE THAT TO ME, UH-HUH? OH, HERE IT IS, RIGHT HERE.

DETECTIVE, UH, WE GOT A COP HERE.

HEY, HOLD ON A SECOND, MAN. OKAY?

CAN WE TALK SOMEWHERE?

HEY, I'LL CALL YOU BACK, MAN. HALF-HOUR.

RIGHT THIS WAY, CHIEF.

AND THEN SO, UM,

BUTTMAN WANTED, UH,

20 APIECE FOR THE GIRL.

AND... AND, UH,

I DON'T KNOW WHO PAID, BUT...

BUT I DIDN'T.

SEE. SEE, UM,

BUTTMAN SAID THAT SWANNY WAS A VIRGIN,

AND, UM,

HOW IT WASN'T RIGHT FOR A COP

TO BE A VIRGIN.

SO... BY THEN, SWAN COULD HARDLY TALK.

YOU KNOW, STAMMERING AND TRYING TO SAY HOW...

HOW HE WASN'T...

UM, SO BUTTMAN SAID,

"WE'RE ALL GONNA HELP HIM OUT."

BY WHICH HE MEANT, UM, TIE HIM TO A CHAIR

AND... AND TAKE HIS PANTS DOWN.

SEE, THAT WAS BUTTMAN'S IDEA.

BUT WE ALL DID THAT.

YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY'S SAYING HOW WE'D LIKE TO HAVE HELP.

LIKE SWANNY WAS.

BUT SWAN DIDN'T THINK IT WAS A JOKE.

Y'KNOW? IT...

HE WAS, UM...

HE STARTED CRYING, AND...

AND THEN SHE CAME IN.

UM, LOIS.

AND SHE...

AND SHE...

PERFORMED A SEXUAL ACT ON HIM.

I AM SO SORRY.

YOU KNOW, WE MEANT IT LIKE A JOKE.

SWEAR TO GOD.

SWAN... WE DID.

RANDALL BUTTMAN? YOU'RE UNDER ARREST

FOR PANDERING, CONSPIRACY TO ASSAULT,

AND RAPE.

TURN OVER YOUR SHIELD AND YOUR FIREARM.

DON'T MAKE IT HARD ON YOURSELF, BUTTMAN.

YOU'LL MAKE BAIL.

- JOE? - YEAH, WITH PLEASURE.

- HEY, JOE. - COME ON.

I DON'T SMELL RAT MEAT, DO I, GARFIELD?

I DON'T SMELL LAME NIGGER-BOY RAT MEAT,

DO I, GARFIELD?

TOUGH SPOT FOR THAT KID.

TOOK A LOT OF GUTS TO SPEAK UP.

WOULD'VE BEEN BETTER LAST NIGHT.

WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER ROOKIES?

I'LL TALK TO DANIELS. THE REST OF IT'S OUR I.A.D.

HOWARD? MY OFFICE.

RAY. HENRY?

GENTLEMEN, UM,

I WOULD'VE PREFERRED TO GO WITH MY ORIGINAL PROPOSAL,

BUT FAILING THAT,

I'VE HAD TO RESORT TO RATHER A MORE SUBJECTIVE CRITERIA.

SO, BASED SOLELY ON FINANCIAL NEED,

I'VE DECIDED THE SURVEY JOB SHOULD GO TO RAY.

NEED FOR WHAT, FRANK?

A LUXURY SEDAN WITH A CRUSHED VELOUR INTERIOR?

THAT IS A LOW BLOW, HOWARD.

DID HE TELL YOU WHAT HE NEEDED THE MONEY FOR?

- RAY? - FRANK,

MAY I HAVE A WORD WITH YOU ALONE?

HE'S GONNA PLUNK IT DOWN ON A FOUR-DOOR,

CORNFLOWER BLUE TOURING CAR.

THAT'S WHAT HE NEEDS IT FOR.

FRANK, FOR THE RECORD, I RAN INTO BOTH OF THEM

- COMING OUT OF THE AUTO SHOW. - AND I SUPPOSE YOU WANTED

A TEST DRIVE TO SEE IF YOU LIKED THE RADIO?

I DID NOT MISREPRESENT MY DESIRE FOR THE MONEY.

JUST A SECOND, WHAT WERE YOU DOING THERE?

MAYBE I HAD A DENTIST APPOINTMENT.

THERE ARE NO DENTISTS IN THAT BUILDING.

HIS OFFICE IS ACROSS THE STREET.

THERE SOME LAW AGAINST WINDOW SHOPPING?

- APPARENTLY YOU THINK SO. - RAY,

WHAT ABOUT ROSA'S COUSIN?

ALL MY LIFE, I HAVE FULFILLED EVERY OBLIGATION.

TO MY FAMILY. PROFESSIONALLY.

AND JUST ONCE, I WANTED SOMETHING FOR MYSELF.

WILL YOU CONDEMN ME FOR THAT?

CUT IT OUT.

I'M GIVING BACK THE GRANT. I'M JUST GONNA SEND IT...

I'M GIVING IT UP.

- FRANK. - END OF CONFERENCE.

END OF DISCUSSION, HENRY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

- FRANK. - NO, HOWARD.

I REGRETFULLY ACCEPT

THE CONSEQUENCES OF MY ACTIONS.

BUT IN TRUTH,

I DO NOT APOLOGIZE.

HOWARD.

- MS. DAVENPORT. - LIEUTENANT.

THAT BAD?

NOTHING A ROMANTIC DINNER COULDN'T CURE.

WANT SOME COMPANY?

EXCUSE ME, CAPTAIN.

HAROLD BAKER'S DEAD.

O.D.'D.

TRANSIT COPS FOUND HIM IN A BATHROOM

AT THE BUS STATION.

HE HAD TWO OF THOSE BALLOONS.

UH, GUESS HE LIFTED THEM, AND I DIDN'T SEE IT.

IT'S PRETTY PURE STUFF.

OKAY, MICK.

JOYCE?

HE WAS MY CLIENT, FRANK.

I CAN'T HELP FEELING HE WAS COERCED.

HE KNEW THE OPTIONS. HE WANTED TO BE BACK ON THE STREET...

THAT WAS NO OPTION.

YOU PUT A KID IN A CANDY STORE.

IT WASN'T THE OPERATION THAT KILLED HIM.

IT WAS THE PURITY OF THE STUFF HE TOOK.

IF WE HADN'T CAUGHT HIM, HE'D BE JUST AS DEAD BY NOW.

FOR THE RECORD, I THINK IT STINKS.

GET NO ARGUMENT FROM ME.

I WANNA LEAVE THIS ONE IN THE OFFICE.

NO ARGUMENT FROM ME, EITHER.

CAN WE GO HOME NOW?

- MA'AM. - THANK YOU.

- THANK YOU. - HERE YOU ARE, SIR.

I'D LIKE TO GET SOMETHING OUT ON THE TABLE.

- UP FRONT. - SHOOT.

ARE WE HERE SO YOU CAN TALK ME OUT OF A STORY?

NO, NOT AT ALL.

BECAUSE IF YOU ARE, I HAVE TO TELL YOU,

YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME.

MAN.

YOU'RE JUST GONNA HAVE TO TRUST ME WHEN I SAY

THAT WE'RE HERE BECAUSE I WANTED TO TAKE YOU TO DINNER.

YOUR PARTNER DIDN'T PUT YOU UP TO THIS?

MS. WILLIAMS, QUESTION MY MOTIVES

EVERY WHICH WAY.

THEY'RE GONNA STAND UP.

AT THE VERY LEAST, YOU OUGHTA SEE

WE'RE CAPABLE OF BETTER TABLE MANNERS.

OFFICER HILL.

BOBBY.

BOBBY.

THE ENTIRE TIME WE FOLLOWED YOU,

YOU NEVER ANSWERED A SINGLE CALL.

AND TO BE HONEST, YOUR PARTNER

SHOWED MORE INTEREST IN STUFFING HIS FACE

THAN TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS.

SOMETIMES THAT'S THE WAY A DAY GOES, YOU KNOW?

WE ANSWER THE CALLS WE GET.

I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYONE

EAT SO MANY DONUTS IN MY LIFE.

WITH A NEW WIFE, A NEW BABY,

RENKO'S UNDER A LOT OF PRESSURE RIGHT NOW.

HE DOESN'T DRINK MUCH. HE DOESN'T DO DRUGS.

- HE DOES DONUTS. - SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

EVEN SO, HE'S KIND OF A BLOWHARD, ISN'T HE?

SOMETIMES.

BUT HE IS MOSTLY, LYNN, IS A GOOD COP.

HE GOT TWO COMMENDATIONS FOR BRAVERY, AND HE'S

PROBABLY THE BEST FRIEND I HAVE

IN THE WHOLE WORLD.

NICE.

OKAY. SO I FIGURED...

MAYBE SOME KIND OF BRIBE OR SOMETHING WAS COMING,

AND I, YOU KNOW, BROUGHT IT.

AND I FEEL INCREDIBLY STUPID.

HERE.

TAKE IT.

I'M... REALLY SORRY.

BOY, DO I FEEL DUMB.

YOU READY TO ORDER YET?

YOU'RE NOT MAD?

DO I LOOK MAD?

A LITTLE.

A LITTLE.

YOU GIVE ME THE CHANCE, I'M THE FORGIVING TYPE.

- JOHN? - YEAH.

I'M SORRY. I SHOULDN'T HAVE CALLED,

BUT HE TERRIFIED ME.

IT'S OKAY. YOU DID THE RIGHT THING.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHETHER TO CALL THE POLICE OR WHAT.

HEY, WHAT AM I?

HE MUST'VE CALLED HALF A DOZEN TIMES.

HE DOESN'T SPEAK. I JUST HEAR HIM BREATHING.

LOOK, IF YOU WANT, WE'LL PUT A TRACE ON THE LINE.

DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT'S NECESSARY?

EH, THE TRUTH IS, THESE CREEPS...

THEY READ SOMETHING IN THE PAPER.

THEY'RE LIKE VULTURES. SCARY BUT HARMLESS.

YOU WANT ME TO STAY IN CASE HE CALLS AGAIN?

PLEASE, FOR A WHILE, AT LEAST.

MY PLEASURE, MA'AM.

I SAW SWAN'S AUNT TODAY.

HOW'S SHE DOING?

PRETTY BAD. GOT FOUR KIDS.

OF HER OWN.

I DON'T KNOW, SOMETHING LIKE THIS, REALLY...

HEY HEY HEY.

HEY, NEAL.

HEY, TOLD THE MAN FROM POLK AVENUE

GOTTA GET IN WITH SOME REAL COPS.

RON GARFIELD.

- LUCY BATES. HOW'RE YOU DOING? - PLEASURE.

- JOE COFFEY. HOW'RE YOU DOIN'? - GOOD. GOOD TO MEET YOU, JOE.

YOU'RE THE ONE WITH BUTTMAN, RIGHT?

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. YOU GOT THREE VOTES

- ON YOUR SIDE RIGHT HERE. - MM-HMM.

LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING.

YOU THINK BUTTMAN CROAKED THAT HOOKER?

I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T KNOW.

WELL, HIS ALIBI'S STILL HOLDING.

SOMEBODY SAW HIM IN THE BANK.

COME ON. TAKE A LOAD OFF. SIT DOWN.

YEAH, RIGHT. LET ME GRAB A BEER.

EVERYBODY COVERED?

- YEAH. - YEAH, I'M COOL.

EXCUSE ME.

HEY, LIPS.

I DON'T WANT THIS, BUTTMAN.

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY USED TO SAY IN THE WAR, DON'T YOU?

BIG LIPS SINK SHIPS.

WASN'T BIG LIPS, BUTTMAN. I THINK IT WAS LOOSE LIPS.

YEAH, WELL, BIG LIPS. LOOSE LIPS.

- IT'S ALL THE SAME TO ME. - HEY, MOVE IT ALONG, BUTTMAN.

BIG LIPS. BIG MOUTH.

YOU KNOW, IT ALL MAKES A LOT OF SENSE.

RANDY, WHY DON'T YOU GET OUT OF HERE?

YOU KNOW, JOE.

THE BROAD WITH SUNDANCE, I CAN UNDERSTAND.

BUT YOU... I THOUGHT YOU HAD SOME CLASS.

HEY. YOU KNOW WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOU, RANDY?

COMPARED TO YOU, WE ALL LOOK TERRIFIC.

- WE ALL LOOK CLEAN. - YOU LOOK LIKE A JERK, PAL.

- OKAY. - HEY...

HEY.

HEY HEY-HEY-HEY!

YOU WANNA TALK LIPS NOW, BUTTMAN?

YOU WANNA TALK FAT LIPS? YOU WANNA TALK MOUTHS?

YEAH, I'LL BE TALKING TO YOU.

AH, GET OUT OF HERE.

GET OUT OF HERE.

HEY, KID, YOU ALL RIGHT?

HUH?

YOU KNOW, YOU GOT ME INTO THIS THING.

WHAT AM I GONNA DO NOW?

YOU'RE GONNA LOOK AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR AND FEEL PROUD.

THAT'S WHAT YOU CAN DO, BUDDY.

JOHN?

JOHN? WAKE UP. THERE'S SOMEBODY DOWNSTAIRS.

- WHAT? - I HEARD A WINDOW BREAK.

- WHERE? - DOWNSTAIRS.

DON'T GO DOWN THERE!

CALL THE POLICE.

TELL 'EM IT'S A CODE SIX.

AND LOCK THIS DOOR BEHIND ME.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL.

HEY, I'M A COP. REMEMBER?

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE! POLICE!

SO I FINALLY SAID,

LOOK, TO HELL WITH IT. I MEAN, IF IT'S GONNA GIVE US

THIS KIND OF GRIEF, I'M JUST GONNA

REFUSE THE DAMN THING.

WHAT ABOUT THE $6,000?

GONE. GOODBYE.

HOW MUCH WORK DID THAT INVOLVE, FURILLO?

MM. SHUFFLING PAPERS.

COUPLE HOURS A WEEK.

SO.

6,000.

WHICH I COULD DO ON WEEKENDS.

MM-HMM.

I'M THINKING ABOUT HOUSES.

DOWN PAYMENTS.

SOLD, COUNSELOR.

A BOLD EXECUTIVE DECISION.

FURILLO.

YEAH, J.D.?

SHH.

WHERE ARE YOU?

I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

LARUE JUST KILLED SOMEBODY.
