you

Thank you.

Corrigan Snitch is really nervous.

I told him we'd protect his men as best
we can. Hey, we ought to call it off.

You and the DA's office have been
playing tag with Frank Deal for years.

can put him away.

I'd feel a lot better if I could have
questioned the witness before this bus

goes down.

He's not your usual sleazy snitch.

Oscar made a few mistakes, served his
time. That's why he's working with

Corrigan, to make up for what he did. In
a few minutes, we'll hand a cold

-blooded killer over to you, along with
a witness who'll have enough names,

dates, and places to put him on ice
forever.

Hey, Oscar, cool it, man. You're shaking
like a junkie. I'll be okay.

You've got to calm down.

Theo's sharp.

He'll get hinky if he reads you nervous.

Yeah, yeah, don't worry.

Look, I'll make it work.

But I gotta meet with you later, Jim.

Tell you about something I picked up
from Dio.

It's dynamite.

The sitting center about halfway down.

Okay. Romano, you and Stacy cover the
rear exits.

Jim, you take the lobby.

Bill, you stay in the car.

Booker, come on. This is my case.

This isn't the Mekong Delta, pal.

You're stuck behind lines now.

What's your problem, Oscar?

No problem, Frank.

No problem.

Just being careful, like you said.

Tell me who the mark is, give me the
money, and it's done.

Well, uh, there's this guy.

Big guy, see?

He's a guy on the south side.

Mean, you know?

So you gotta be careful.

What's going on, Oscar? What the hell
are you so jumpy about?

Come on, man.

Hang on.

Hold it Frank.

You got no place to go.

You're dirt, Dio.

And you're headed for the garbage heap.

You've got cop.

You've got bologna and a stick.

Hooker!

Our witness.

He's dead.

Oscar Barr is still going to bury you.

Killing him is going to put you away
from murder one.

First, you've got no weapon.

Second, I want to call my lawyer. Well,
I'll give you a dime.

Because whether we find the gun or not,
you're still going to need him.

Take him.

Hands on your head.

Damn,

I knew it was wrong.

We're asking too much of him.

Not we, me.

I called the shots on this one.

Yeah, you sure did.

Did he have any relatives?

Sister.

I'll break the news to her myself.

No.

I'll take care of it.

You've been enough already.

Nobody in the audience saw the shooting,
Hooker. You've got no eye wits and

probably no case. Wrong. I'm going to
book him for murder. Did you see D .O.

fire the gun? No, I didn't. But I saw it
run for where Oscar was shot.

Yeah, and you know what he's going to
say? He's going to claim he was running

because he was afraid that somebody was
trying to shoot him, too.

I know he did it, and I saw him with an
object in his hand, which he threw away,

which had to be a gun.

Can you swear it was a gun?

That's not going to stand up unless you
can produce the weapon. No, I can't.

But you can hold him for another 72
hours.

What are you going to accomplish in 72
hours? I'm going to get out there and

start digging and keep on digging until
I find enough to put D .O. away for

good. Divisional Vice says Angie Quine
is still tricking on the boulevard.

I'll ask him to ease up on the boulevard
for the next couple of days. He

wouldn't want him to scare Angie into
hiding.

D .O.'s ex -girlfriend?

If she's your angle, you're wasting your
time.

She can nail Dio's butt to a cell, Mr.
Parker. She knows more about him than

Oscar Barr did. Forget it. She's a clam.
We've been trying to get her to

cooperate for months.

Yeah, but this is the first time Dio's
had a date with a grand jury. And maybe

can get Angie to see that she has a
responsibility to put him away.

A prostitute with a public conscience?
Come on, spare me hooker.

Hustling is what she does, not what she
is.

Phil, believe me, this girl is different
from all the other girls on the street.

I still don't like it.

Hey, Phil.

We've waded through too many rice
paddies together. Don't be afraid of

repeat whales.

You are talking, Nam.

I'm talking here and now. This is a
different kind of war.

Yeah, but it's still a war. And we can
win this battle if we get the support we

need.

I don't believe you.

What do you want me to do? Make sure we
stay assigned to the DA's office for the

next few days and keep Dio in custody.

I'll give it a try.

Thanks, Phil.

We'll get out of the street and start
looking for Angie.

Jim, we had a second shot at nailing
Dio.

We should have just let Oscar Barr
testify and not used him as a decoy.

your contact was the only way we had of
getting Dio to surface. It was the only

way and you know it. Maybe.

And maybe if Oscar wasn't so easy to
lean on, we would have found another

Long ago.

I thought Oscar was with you.

Is something wrong?

I need to talk to you, Lorraine.

Okay, come in.

What's wrong?

It was a shooting.

Oscar, he was shot.

He didn't make it.

Oh, God.

You're telling me that you got my
brother killed?

Damn it!

That sweet little guy.

Why didn't you just leave him alone?

Lorraine, Lorraine.

I'd give anything if it hadn't happened.

Don't tell me that.

He was working for you, doing what you
asked him to.

And he was scared to death.

But no, you kept pushing.

He's pushing his duty button. I didn't
kill him.

Frank Dio did.

Lorraine, listen to me.

You're not hurting alone.

I care about Oscar, too.

Well, put that on his tombstone.

I deserve anything you want to say to
me.

But Oscar died trying to take a killer
off the streets.

Do you think I care about that? Oscar
did.

Look, I know the pain you're going
through right now.

But Oscar was really involved in trying
to bring Dio down. He said he had to

tell me something.

It was dynamite.

Lorraine, do you know what that was?

Get out!

Lorraine, think about Oscar.

I am thinking about him.

He's cold and dead in the morgue. Now
you get out!

Lucy. Go bye -bye, Hooker. I gotta be
careful who I'm seeing with. My partner,

Vince Ramone.

Pleased to meet you.

Don't get too friendly, Junior.

It could cost you.

You don't get nothing for free in this
life, Junior.

Ain't that the truth?

Like the time I let you dump your purse
before the vice boy said hello?

Here it comes.

The payback.

I'm looking for Angie Quiet.

Come on, Hooker. Give me a break.

Sounds like he already did.

Hooker. If it wasn't for Angie, I'd be
in Calvary Cemetery today.

You can't expect me to turn her in.
You'd be doing her a favor.

I'm trying to find Angie before Frank
Dio's boys get to her.

I don't want to bust her. I'm trying to
keep her alive.

Come on.

The Excelsior.

Room 520.

Thank you, Dissy.

Consider your account paid in full.

I don't work vice anymore, Hooker.

So to what do I owe the displeasure?

We got a court order with your name on
it, Angie.

Grand jury wants a few hours of your
time.

Oh, yeah?

What about?

We bust a frank deal.

When the jury hears what you know about
him, they'll indict him.

He'll be wearing prison gray for the
rest of his life.

Over my dead and severely mangled body.

Which is what'll happen if I say word
one about Dio. We're not here to debate

it.

We'll go to your place, pick up some
things. You're gonna be sequestered for

few days.

You can force me to go to the grand
jury, Hooker.

But there's no way you're gonna make me
talk.

Hooker, my little sister's inside.

Doesn't know what I do for a living.

Is there anyone else that can take care
of you, sister?

She's gonna have to come with me.

I don't think that's a good idea, Angie.

What about Stacy?

Call her.

See if she'd mind having a guest for a
few days.

We can't hit her while she's with the
cops.

She's gonna be with the cops from now
until she testifies.

Frank wants her dead.

She's dead.

Mary.

Angie. Oh, you're home early.

Yeah.

What's wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

This is Sergeant Hooker. How do you do?
Pleasure to meet you. What's he doing

here? Your sister has a special job to
do for the police department.

Sounds scary.

Nothing to worry about, sweetheart.

It's just that you're going to have to
stay with someone while I'm gone. A

friend of mine.

Policewoman. She'll be by to pick you up
soon.

Come on, Mary.

We can pack together.

Okay.

Corgan and Stacy are on the way.

Okay.

You stay with Mary until I get here.

Get out.

Let's try it one more time.

On the night of December 12th, you and
Dio left for Reno's with Salucci, who

found one hour later, executed.

All I remember about that night, the
pasta was too al dente.

I told you we'd get nothing from this
lady.

Angie.

Angie, there's no way to make friends.

I don't need a friend.

You're wrong.

The only one I ever needed was my
father.

Nobody special, just a watchman at the
tuna cannery.

Understand me, Hooker?

He's the only one.

I'm trying to make you use your head
before Dio blows it off.

If I testify, he'll kill me for sure.

He'll kill you either way. He's already
proven that.

Your only chance is to help the grand
jury put him away.

You know I'm right.

I hate it.

You're right.

Then you'll testify?

Yeah.

All right, Angie.

I've got to put you someplace where
you'll be safe.

You have a choice.

Take my hands.

Where'd those dumps go?

This place is world class.

You'll be safe. That's what's important.

I'll need a story on the desk clerk to
keep him happy.

Try laying a bottle of Ripple on him.
Keep him happier.

You gotta protect me, Hooker.

I'm scared.

You were right. I've got reasons to
live, even if my life doesn't look like

much.

You know what your problem is?

You don't belong on the streets.

I get around, I see things, talk to
people.

Like that kid you got into emergency
detox when she OD'd.

So what?

Anybody do that?

No, not just anybody.

And you're smart, too.

You knew enough to get your kid sister
in a bad home. How come you can do so

much good for other people and not for
yourself?

Who was the man who messed up your life,
Angie?

What's that, an educated guess?

He was a doctor.

Told me he'd send me to nursing school.

Marry me as soon as he divorced his
wife.

Taught me to hate doctors almost as much
as I hate cops.

Well, by the time we get you in front of
a grand jury, you'll learn to love us.

I'm going bananas trying to figure who
tipped Dio's man.

Maybe the vice guy Stacy talked to let
it slip.

It'd be better than finding out Dio has
a connection in the department.

We've got to cover all our bets. I'd ask
Corrigan to pull Frank Dio's file and

see if any interesting names show up on
his record.

And Angie is staying here until we find
out.

Not without insulin, I don't.

What insulin?

I'm a diabetic, like my father.

I've got an insulin kit with me and
enough for one more shot.

I'll need another one in six hours.

I'll go pick some up. I'll be back
before then.

I can't believe you've got the guts to
face me again.

And if you think that paying for Oscar's
funeral changes anything, forget it.

That's not why I did it.

Conscience money.

But I couldn't afford to do it myself,
so why not?

We said it all last time. What do you
want now?

What I asked you before.

Anything Oscar may have known about Dio.

Go ask Oscar.

Look, Lorraine, there are more people
involved in this besides you and me.

There's a girl who's willing to talk to
the grand jury, tell them enough to put

Dio away.

But Dio's men are ready to try to hit
her once. Now, I'm worried about keeping

her alive.

I told you I don't know anything.

I think you might. Now, come on,
Lorraine.

I don't know.

I mean, I don't know if it means
anything.

Well, come on, tell me.

After Oscar talked to Dio on the phone,
before he went to meet him, He told me

Dio was bragging he had a marker.

A marker he was maybe gonna call in
after 20 years.

20 years?

Dio was a kid 20 years ago.

I know.

Doesn't make sense.

Oh, it does if you're a syndicate.

Marker's good any time.

But who could owe Frank Dio from that
long ago?

That's all Oscar said.

Thanks, Lorraine, for trying.

Take a ride on the Reading Railroad. If
you pass, I'll collect $200.

Now I own all of them. You're going to
leave me a drink.

Want a cola?

No, thanks.

Hello? You okay?

Yeah, where are you?

A place even the roaches avoid.

Put Mary on. Angie wants to talk to her.

Okay. Mary?

Hello? Angie?

How you doing, kid?

Fine, but I'm worried about you.

Listen, I told you there's nothing to
worry about.

I'm in good hands.

Mary, listen to me.

I want you to stick close to that
policewoman, okay?

She's going to take care of you.

Are you sure you're all right?

Listen, baby, I gotta go, okay?

I love you.

Love you, too.

Daisy, I changed my mind. Could I have
that cola?

Coming right up.

Frontier Hotel.

Hello?

Frontier Hotel.

Hunter, wait a second.

What's going on?

I just heard you pulled Angie out.

Yeah, well, she's stashed.

With Dio's hoods, can't get a second
crack.

Where can she be safer than right here
at the precinct? A lot of places, if I'm

right about Dio having a contact in the
department.

I still think you're out of base on
that.

Where are you holding her?

I'd like to play that close to the vest.

I can understand that, but she's out of
my authority. I've still got to be able

to tell the DA where his witness is.

Frontier Hotel. Don't tell him unless he
asks.

You bet.

the mustache takes the blonde on a
cruise to Acapulco.

I've seen it before.

Maybe there's something else on. I'll
get the TV lifted.

Okay.

Mr. Sheridan on a land line.

4M30. Roger.

Hello?

Stace, what's up?

Mary's gone. She snuck out on me.

I searched the building and put out an
APB on her.

Damn.

I'm sorry, Hooker.

Search the neighborhood.

I'll call the hotel and see if Angie has
any idea where she might be headed.

Who is it? It's me, Mary.

Angie, are you in there?

What are you doing here?

I was worried about you.

How did you get away from Stacy?

It wasn't her fault.

I snuck out.

I'll let her know.

There's an opening there.

As soon as we see something move, we
blow her away.

Angie, what's going on? Why are you
staying in this place?

Well, I just happen to have some
information that the police want.

What kind of information?

Mary, get away from the window.

Are you all right?

Glass in my eyes. I can't see.

4 -Atom -16 officer needs help.

Frontier Hotel.

Shots being fired. Use caution.

Sniper on rooftop.

Keep this over your eyes, and whatever
you do, don't rub them. Yeah.

And you'll be safe if you stay here with
the police, okay?

Angie! Shh!

You can't.

You can't. I'll come back for you just
as soon as I can, okay?

Where are you going, Angie?

What the hell are you doing?

six maggot you haven't got any more

it's a long way down to the street you

haven't got a chance

A voice on the phone. A voice belonging
to Frank Dio.

What's a Frank Dio?

We have to find Angie.

Do you know where she went, Mary?

Angie didn't say where she was going.

Are you sure, honey?

I'll take Mary back to my place. Just
wanted to make sure you're okay.

Thanks.

This is how you protect a witness?

Looks like a shooting gallery in here.
Hey, we were getting shot at too,

We're trying to make your case for you.
You come around here complaining after

the smoke clears?

Don't talk to me like that. Hey, guys,
we're all on the same side.

Yeah, but it looks like our side's
taking all the casualties.

You got a man with combat fatigue,
Hooker. He doesn't belong in the

We're all a little uptight. It's the
second time Dio's men have found us.

about uptight.

What if the DA finds out we've lost
another witness?

We'll get Angie back.

And when we do, she'll talk. I need hard
evidence.

I'll land you or give you his bologna on
a stick.

Matt said you were here.

You're not gonna like what I just heard.
Parker turned Dio loose.

It figures.

Parker's the leak.

Your buddy from NAMM?

Yeah, and I took my partners down with
me. What's Parker's tie to Dio?

Parker, alias Tommy D 'Amico, ran with
Dio when they were kids.

After he served county camp time in his
teens, he changed his name and enlisted.

Hey, wait a minute. That's what Oscar
Barr was trying to tell his sister,

20 -year -old marker.

He's had his hooks into Parker all this
time.

Junior, you go with Jim. Pick up some
insulin.

Angie's going to need it within the
hour, if we can find her. Where are you

headed? I have an outside chance to stop
the deal.

Meet me at Stacy's.

They've been killed. What are you
talking about? I'm talking about a

who's tipped off deal to every one of
our moves.

A sleaze named Tony D 'Amico.

Oh, Hooker, Hooker, please, please let
me explain.

My partner.

My friends. They were in jeopardy
because I trusted you.

I'm your friend, too, who pulled you out
of the shell hole in the Delta. You

saved me. I saved you. That's what war
is all about.

Doesn't it count for something? Yeah, it
counts for something.

It counts for this.

Listen, you.

Your career is already down the tubes.

You don't call Pio and his dogs off of
Angie.

You're going down with them.

Accessory to murder one.

I can't, Hooker. I can't. I can't.
Please believe me.

It's out of my hands.

Then you better pray that we find it
before they do.

She was going.

Think, Mary.

Was there any place she would go to be
alone or where she'd feel safe?

I don't know.

Honest. They got Angie's insulin.

She's already overdue.

Corgan's out looking for Lucy to see if
she knows where Angie went, but we have

run out of time.

Wait.

Angie said where she was going, she
would get the insulin she needs.

That could be any hospital or doctor.

Or her father.

Angie said he was a diabetic, too.

Her father, where does he live?

I don't know.

But I know where he works. The tuna
canner, it's worth a shot.

Hey!

You, pick a hike.

What do you want from me?

Where's Angie?

How should I know?

Maybe Sal can help you remember.

I'm sorry.

I got scared.

What about your father?

And the incident?

He isn't here.

Is Mary okay?

She's fine. It's you we're worried
about.

Mary's all that matters.

She's my daughter, Hooker.

Not my sister.

She's my whole life.

You never told her.

It's me. You've got to promise me.

You'll take care of my baby.

And keep my secret.

Promise me, Hooker.

Promise me. I promise you.

But you're going to make it.

Mary needs you.

I'll get the answer.

Looking for this, Hooker?

I'm going to leave it in your car.

All you have to do is come and get it
before it goes up in smoke.

What the hell is going on out there?

Dio and his men just blew up our car.

They got us surrounded.

What about the insulin?

It was in the car.

How long do you figure before they rush
us?

I don't think they will. Dio knows about
Angie's diabetes.

All he has to do is wait until we try
and get her out of here.

Great.

To get past that army out there, we're
going to need a tank.

I think I just found one.

Give me a hand.

Everybody get back, please. Come on, get
back.

Get back.

Lucy, what happened?

I couldn't help it.

They were going to kill me.

Dio and a man looking for Angie.

What'd you tell them?

To Cannery.

She used to go there to see her father.

There's an ambulance coming.

That's going to be a rough ride.

Get her to a hospital.

Your future is worth bologna on a stick.

She's a very lucky lady. One more hour
and she could have been in a diabetic

coma, maybe even dead.

It cost you, Angie.

But your testimony is going to convict
Theo in all counts.

Well, that's something.

I'll be talking to a federal marshal.

They can get you into a witness program.

Give you a new identity.

A chance at a fresh start with Mary.

I've been thinking.

Maybe I should find a good foster home
for Mary.

Get out of her life before she finds out
what I really am.

I don't believe what I'm hearing. Is
this the girl that stood up to Dio?

I thought you were a fighter. Do you
mind just once not kicking tail when you

don't see it my way? I'll tell you what
I do see.

You and Mary love each other, need each
other.

What she needs is a good, straight life.

Well, then give it to her.

Get into the witness program. Learn to
be a nurse.

Turn your life around.

Really?

Think I can do it?

Hey, Angie.

One thing you've got to know about me. I
may not always be right, but I'm never

wrong.

She's a tough lady.

She's always been tough.

And you're right, Ramon.

She's on her way to being a lady.
