Previously on Hill Street Blues.

Who's there?

I thought it was a prowler. He pointed a gun.

Look, there's no question we're going to have to move in Perez. The point is,

we've got a separate and legitimate endangerment complaint against the

Take a little heat off the department, right? Is she free to leave?

Not at this time.

He shot my boy.

Sorry. I want some of your people, Frank, undercover in one of those sex

palaces. I'm going to hire cops?

Four of us.

Ozzie Cleveland's a real nice guy. I just don't see him as the mayor of the

city. It's a cheap, shoddy attempt to put a feather in candidate Daniels' cap

election day. Maybe he'll let me take you out to dinner.

Yeah.

Item six, the Emily Post bandit. D .D., please.

Said felon hit the hill again yesterday.

making a forced withdrawal from a savings loan on West 116th Street.

Once again, witnesses remarked his perpetrator's impeccable manners.

They were taken by his frequent use of yes ma 'am and no ma 'am while receiving

the teller of a cash drawer's contents.

They were charmed by his keeping his hardware directed at the floor,

because it's impolite to point, or by his apologies on departure for any

inconvenience he might have caused.

A speculative tally would put the number of jobs this gentleman's pulled at 27

in the last month.

There is no reason his pulley test ought to prompt an equal deference from the

police. He'll be given a description sheet.

Study it.

Catch him.

Item seven.

The people of Bethlehem, Washington, continue their mission at the infamous

Murray's Wonderland to be rejoined later in the a .m.

by Lieutenant Hunter. Now, it is necessary for me to mention that since

operation began, certain peculiar items have surfaced about these premises. For

example, this all -leather metal studded headpiece.

I consider it of open -minded speculation it is not headgear for

is not a non -toxic, non -polluting roach killer.

Although I admit several of our roaches have been naughty of late.

And this illustrated autobiography of 8mm film great Angela Ancious

entitled It Hurts, But I Love It.

On the City Library's list of recommended reading.

I ask the guilty party of parties disseminating these souvenirs to cease

having his or her mind washed out with soap by yours truly upstairs.

Item 8 is an update on Officer Michael Perez.

I'm afraid no visit is being allowed at this point. The address is posted

upstairs. I'm sure we can all spare a few seconds to drop a card or a note.

They were all here by a prize of two funds.

One for the Perez family.

As you know, they were feeling the pinched pride of the situation.

And the other day, Mrs. Doris Robeson, with funeral expenses for her son,

Officer Schnitz is taking the donations.

Item last.

Well, it's one more day till the election.

It's been my personal observation that the topic has been a source of heated

hallway debate.

A debate is healthy, but let's keep it amiable.

Let's give our fellow grown -ups a chance to make an uncoerced, well

-out decision.

Okay, that's it. Let's roll.

And let's be very careful out there.

Take a moment to go by and see Maria, just to let her know we're thinking

Mike. Say, Leo, you got a change for 20?

Ten each, please.

Give me the glass. There's a murder.

When's he checking you out? What's that for now?

What's the idiot grin for?

You're not making excuses to see your squeeze, are you, Lucy? I don't have to

make excuses. We have a date tonight.

And the sergeant threw this away for a reason. I was going to throw it back.

Sure you would.

How can she do that?

Tongue depressors.

We have a 911.

I'm Rugby and Progress.

C -Strip West Door, Corner People's Drive, 124th Street.

Will you take care of this, please?

It's not unusual.

New candidates generate new interests.

Ray? Morning. Good morning.

Mr. Whitcamp would like to use the computer facilities for a few minutes,

it's all right with you. Yeah, I need the phone link of the division.

Go right ahead.

Well, Raymond, can I watch the debate?

Yes, Chief.

Ray, I'm sorry about our harsh words the other day. I know you've got a shopping

list. It is not a shopping list.

A legitimate agenda, then.

Things you want for your constituency.

My people, Chief.

I am not running for office. Your people, then. Ray, what I'm trying to

I'll listen.

I just can't give you specifics at this time.

What I can offer you is a ride to the debate in my limo.

Limo?

I'm taking my best campaigners by chauffeured limousine.

When we're there, I want you in the front row.

I need to know you're on the team, Ray.

I'm sorry, Chief.

I can no longer promise that.

Then I may have to break a promise of my own.

If that cost me my captaincy, so be it.

So Ozzie Cleveland got to you, didn't he? No one got to me. Not Cleveland, not

you. I just have to think.

Give my seat to someone else.

Chief, I think you should be in on the status session with Deputy Chief Mahoney

about the Rhapsody.

I'm a little rushed for time this morning, Frank.

You and Dennis handle it.

Well?

Cleveland's up.

Three points in Winchester, five points in Eastlake, three points in the River

District, and that's for the black community.

Unbelievable.

It's a horse race.

I mean, he isn't really even organized yet.

My hunch is, you know, people just like the guy.

Morning, Chief. Frank?

Don't ever run for office, Dennis.

I'm an isolated man locked inside an electronic tower of babble.

We're holding the fort, Chief.

Let's go, Frank.

There's definitely enough to hold this Robson woman for the grand jury. Don't

you think so, Frank? No, I don't.

I think they'll dismiss.

I think they should.

Well, even if they do... Even if they do, we got the word out on that woman.

got the story out.

That child was left alone.

What were you trying to convince, Dennis?

I took the heat off this department and off Fletcher Daniels.

I did what had to be done. Why are you telling me?

Because I know I'm right.

I know that's what he wanted to do.

You're probably close there.

I think he wanted it done.

Can I help you?

Somebody is.

Who?

Yeah, well, I gotta be sure of some things first.

Don't arrest me.

Arrest me and I don't tell you anything.

And I want a methadone program.

Today. Right now.

You promise me or I don't say anything.

What's your name, miss?

Desiree.

Desiree Handel.

It's like this, Desiree. Unless you give us some idea about who this somebody

is, we can't do anything.

The Emily Post bandit.

We talk about him on TV.

You tell us where we can find him. I'll see you get an improvement.

Today. No screwing around.

And I want a lawyer to make sure you guys do like you promised.

That too.

He's a junkie. He has to get high this afternoon, so he's doing it back this

morning. What's his name? What bank?

Nicky.

Nicky Kasner.

He said a bank on Jefferson.

There's four on Jefferson. Which one?

I don't know.

One he did before.

Hey, where's my lawyer?

For you, Mr. Jefferson.

This guy.

Some prior relationship to you?

Steaks, that's all.

I'm through.

It only takes so much.

Hey, I give you a five, you give me change for a one.

What's that?

All right, all right, all right. Lighten up.

Won't you feed this guy?

I've been watching you, kid.

You've got a real flair for this type of work. You ever think of quitting the

cops? No.

Too bad. You can make a buck in this racket.

I could teach you the business.

I'm not interested.

Hey, wait a minute.

Tell me something.

What's the worst pain in the world? What's the absolute worst thing a human

being can be made to suffer? I don't know, Murray.

Torture. Loneliness.

Murray's combat's loneliness.

So do Church's, Murray.

So do ball games.

So do libraries and social clubs. And so does Murray's.

Granted, Murray's takes a slightly different angle, but... Excuse me,

Murray's Animal Kingdom?

Renamed Murray's World of Alternative Lifestyles, third floor.

Thanks.

Maybe you're one of the lucky ones with a wife and kids to go home to. A lot of

people got nothing. They go to a little room every night, eat a frozen dinner

and watch TV.

All the while, they're crying inside for somebody to love them.

Me, I tried to give them something to hold on to in the dark.

Murray, I gotta tell you, that's very poetic.

I don't know, maybe you're an all right guy.

But what you got here, Murray, this ain't right.

Kid, to each his own taste.

Murray wants everybody to be happy, irregardless of what that involves.

It's a wonderful world.

Quincy, go now.

He can read my eyes and nose when I'm scared.

Look, maybe he's got you believing that, but it ain't true.

It's going to work. We're going to bust that sucker clean.

Hey, hey, hey, look.

She's just a little hunky, babe. Oh, yeah, sure. Come on, let's get her

downstairs for some air. Hey, haven't you ever heard the hill street battle

Never fear, J .D.'s here.

You seem pretty copacetic to me.

Just watch your driving, Robert.

I'm perfectly capable of scoping this situation out by myself.

Excuse me, Sherlock.

Take a right here, go by First Citizens.

Looks like we're going to spend this entire day just driving around in a car

doing nothing. Since when did that matter to you?

What's this here?

Michael, don't...

How come it's all over Renko instead of him?

Mind your mind, you beeswax, Leo. Let's book him.

Whoa! My goodness, you're greener today.

You're using too much fertilizer, Andy. I'm telling you. What you laughing

about? Who, me? I'm not laughing.

I need someone to take a customer over to the county for methadone treatment.

We're going anyway.

She told you, didn't she?

I have not got the slightest idea who you're talking about, bud.

Dye got me first time, too, man.

Sniff it when it's wet, you get a little high.

Is that so?

Perhaps you could enlighten me and tell me how I can get this dye off of me.

Turpentine. Turpentine.

Supreme Omer.

Excuse me, I got to go and take care of this now.

Let's do some fingerprints.

Yes! We did something like that on LARP in the Delta.

Hey,

you work your side of the fence, I work mine.

Just dig it. No reason for everybody to hate everybody.

As long as you get your junk, right, Nick?

Hey, I'm not asking for the state of Montana.

He's been advised?

Yep.

Family post bandit.

Say something polite, Nicky. Come on, give me a break.

What a heck of a run.

Hey, look, I'm sorry. I mean, I didn't mean to make you guys look like jerks.

Look, I was telling the arresting officer my problem is I'm going to need

fixed pretty soon.

Federated Bank on 25th Street, Nicky, October 21st.

That girlfriend of mine, can you believe that?

I mean, what's in it for her if she goes and does something like that?

The Certified National Bank on Utica, October 10th. Know anything about that?

I'm going to need to get fixed, ma 'am. You don't know anything about the

Certified National Bank?

Look, Officer Detective, you got the pictures you figured out.

What am I going to do, lie to you?

I got a $700 a day habit, and I support her, too.

By robbery?

No, by selling pencils.

Hey, I never harmed anybody, right?

Hell.

I would walk in, and I'd be so nice.

People couldn't give me enough of their money.

There was this one time.

There was this one time this broad was so happy I wasn't going to shoot her.

She reached into the other drawer, and she gave me that money, too.

Can you believe that?

I told Desiree about it.

We got high, and she sat in the car and watched me do a liquor store. What

liquor store?

It's true what they say about love, man. It stings. What, Lickistore?

Hey, look, Detective, I'm obviously talking here, so give me a little

right?

I'm gonna need to get fixed next few hours, all right?

Put him on the bus.

Um, hey, Detective, I mean, so you had a bad morning, I can relate to that. I

mean, look at the morning I've had.

Sorry, I'm not gonna fix you, Nicky.

Excuse me, Mr. Post.

I have tried industrial dye and I have tried turpentine.

You've got to use pumice stone with turpentine.

I don't think you get the idea. You see, apparently this dye has gone through my

uniform and discolored certain portions of my underneath.

Now, if you could find something that might be a little milder on me, a little

less... Hey, you know, maybe there is.

But I just don't know what it is. You better start thinking. Are you out of

mind? You better start thinking what it is. Look at me, man. Look at me.

I'm sorry.

He said you loved me. And now you go do something like this. I do love you,

Mickey. I'm sick.

You left me. You left me too long. You were playing with me. I loved you. And

now you go do something like this. My client was promised that she'd be taking

me to Cali right away. I'm sick.

You left me too, Daddy. All right.

Well,

she's on the map.

Hey, can you do something about her disposition?

Shut up, Joe.

Where's Desiree?

They're going to keep her here. She has an abscess or something.

I'll see you tonight.

Hey, where are you taking her?

I mean, does this guy spring or what? Shut up, John.

I'll submit a list for your approval.

He's nice.

So you like him, huh?

What did I just say?

Do me a favor. Button this up.

Got you.

And so, based on evidence before the court, Your Honor, the people believe

is enough to warrant... Holding Miss Robson for the grand jury.

Mr. District Attorney, three days ago I recalled telling you that when we got to

the particulars of this case, you better show me something of substance.

What you've presented here leads me to conclude that your prosecution of this

woman is nothing more than an attempt to protect this city from a potentially

expensive civil action. Sir, I find that outrageous.

I am appalled.

Defendant, please rise.

Charge of felony child endangerment, dismissed.

Charge of child abandonment, dismissed.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you, Your Honor.

As for the individuals in the police department and D .A.'s office involved

this action, I regret I'm not empowered to sentence you to a little humanity.

Process ten minutes.

There will be a lot of press outside.

If you like, we can try and go around.

It doesn't matter.

Doris, there's nothing preventing you from bringing suit against the city.

And there's every reason at this point to say you should.

You'll be my lawyer.

I'm afraid I'm not allowed.

But I'll give you the names of some very good people.

If they don't pan out, I'll give you a few myself.

Hey, how you doing?

Huh? Come here.

Yeah, you look like you're doing good. I'm fine.

That's swell.

Take it easy, okay?

Quincy's taking his time. She's getting ready to climb into a basket.

Excuse me, uh, Murray?

No,

no, no. He's not in his office.

That's all right.

I'll find him. Thanks.

No,

no, no, no, no, no. Man, this is too good.

Nice to see you. You look great.

Well, you look great yourself.

So, been keeping busy?

I think you know that I was suspended from law practice for six months.

Yeah, yeah. I heard.

John, it was a blessing.

Hey, that's great.

I'd never been so depressed in my whole life. I was actually contemplating

suicide.

And then with the help of a tremendously sensitive and caring therapist, I began

to rethink the fundamental assumptions of my life.

No kidding. You see, my therapist told me I had to go back to my early

childhood, act out my gender confusion so I can redefine my masculinity.

Uh -huh.

In a dress.

This is not a flirtation with a gay lifestyle, John. I want to stress that.

hey. Okay? Sure.

No. My therapist says this is just a phase.

We have to crawl before I can walk.

You're, uh...

Do your therapists work here?

No. No, I'm here on business. The owner's a client.

Murray? Yeah, you guys have put him in a rather ticklish situation. He wants a

little help in the legal rapids.

Gotta go. Hey, great, great seeing you. Oh, it's great seeing you, Tom.

Look, I'm back in circulation if you need an attorney.

Top of my list, Al.

You don't open this. You don't even talk.

Bust get there, he be waiting. Got that?

Don't move.

Ambulance is on its way.

This is going to cost me.

Crews are all set up. Now, I think you can safely say it has a street value of

.5 million.

What? What's the problem, Detective?

It's just a kilo, Chief. Step on it five times and it's still only worth half a

million. Dammit, somebody give me a number. I'd say a million.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'll begin with the statement.

Operation Pitbull has today netted spectacular results.

We've broken a major drug ring. and netted a quantity of heroin with an

estimated street value of well in excess of one and a quarter million dollars.

I'd like to specifically commend the work of Detective Sergeant Neil

under whose leadership Operation Pitbull racked up such impressive returns.

Truly one of this department's and the city's finest.

Shake hands again.

You and me were there, weren't we?

Must have been exciting.

The operation is... What's the word on the deathbed? How nice to see you.

Chief, how about kissing the baby, Chief?

Oh, surely.

Come on. I remember how to do this.

Little fella.

Excuse me, please.

What's your name, ma 'am? Faye Farillo.

And this is Catherine Elizabeth Farillo. Are you Catherine Farillo's wife?

Oh, no. We've been divorced for some time.

She weighs seven pounds, seven ounces soaking wet, and she's healthy as a

She's beautiful. Thank you. Who's the lucky father?

Judge Paul Grogan.

Secret marriage?

I'm a single mother.

I'm proud of it.

Faye, I'm running a little late.

Chief, what's your position on city aid to unwed mothers?

Well, certainly we support the notion of motherhood. Faye, I'm running a little

late. Wait a minute.

Let me tell you something, mister.

This city's position on aid to single mothers stinks.

I mean, have you any idea what an unwed mother has to go through? The

frustration of being shunted from one agency to the other like...

Like meat in a sausage factory? I think it's time that somebody paid some

attention. Not now, please.

When, then?

I mean, when is this city going to come out of the dark ages? And when are we

going to get an enlightened administration willing to come out for

rights for all women, single or otherwise?

These are substantive questions which I intend to address.

Unfortunately, the time allotted to candidates rarely permits a personal

Excuse me.

Chief, how large was this narcotic spray? The owner.

Oh, you look like a boiled lobster, son. Bobby, I have mutilated myself.

I have removed most of the skin from my southern half.

Is this still green?

No, it's sort of like bright red now.

I'm never going to be the same man again.

Well, come on. I'll race you to the car.

Our work isn't often neat sometimes.

People get hurt.

Will you excuse me, sir, please?

In a minute. I want to mend the fits with you.

If the chief gets elected, there's a good chance you'll be calling me boss.

No, sir.

What? Sorry.

If you become chief, that's when I start looking for a new job.

Oh. Now, please listen to me, sir.

I've seen the way you've tried to hurt people up here, and I'll tell you the

truth. I'd rather work for the guy who ran that sleaze joint, and I already

turned that job down. Now, please.

Excuse me, sir.

My figures indicate the completed pavilion will pump $25 million into our

economy. Giving points to SWCC, Howard? Current budget overruns... Carriage and

grooming, Henry, and the facts of electronic life.

...by no later this time next year.

Commander Cleland?

I'm afraid I'm not up to date on the figures concerning the pavilion.

Sorry, I didn't have time.

If it brings jobs, I'm for it. Pretty vague.

The question is from Kurt Robertson of the Herald.

May we have your reactions to the shooting of five -year -old Jimmy Robson

police officer, specifically to the department's handling of the officer

involved and to the bringing of charges against the dead boy's mother?

Certainly.

The internal affairs investigation of Officer Perez is ongoing.

Their findings are due within the week.

Pending those, any comment by me would be premature.

As for the charges against Mrs. Robson, I would like to read a copy of a letter

for the record sent to Judge Oberman's Superior Court yesterday morning.

Dear sir, Occupied as I have been with the current campaign, I've had to

delegate many day -to -day responsibilities of the department.

Without second -guessing the judgment of those who brought them, please note

that the pursuance of the charges against Mrs. Doris Robson occurred

prior knowledge or consent.

I personally abhor this action and hope this will be a factor in your

deliberations. The city of which I would like to be mayor would not bring

charges against the Doris Robson.

Sincerely, Fletcher Daniels.

Did you or did you not before the debate ask me not to politicize the Robson

shooting? A tragedy of this magnitude transcends political ground. Did you or

did you not apprise me of that letter before now?

I didn't see it as necessarily germane. What purpose does making that letter

public serve you now?

On an issue as sensitive as this, the public has the right to know. I saw you

the Hill Street station when the decision was made to pursue that charge,

Daniels. Now, just a minute, Archie. Are you calling me a liar?

Call it what you like.

It's clear. You let loose a hatchet man and... And now you want to disavow any

responsibility. You want it both ways. That is patently untrue. You didn't keep

your word, Fletcher. A woman lost her son.

A policeman's life and career are irretrievably damaged.

And the public deserves better from us than pious, self -serving

at the expense of innocent lives.

I have no quarrel.

I was simply... I was trying to indicate my position. I'll have to give

Cleveland that round on points.

That was no decision, Howard. That was a knockout.

It is the decision of this court that Mr. Donald Quincy be detained without

bail. Return date in the Superior Court will be in one week.

Bailiff.

Docket number 1 -9 -9 -4 -3 -6, Nicholas Kasner. 22 counts of 1 -6 -0 -5.

Robbery in the first degree.

Mr. Kasner is allegedly the Emily Post robber. Your Honor.

If you're thinking murder, too, on Quincy and Masters, you're whistling

downwind.

See, you want to get them to cop to a manslaughter, simple possession, you'll

get the same aid attendant you serve anyway.

Case is on for bail setting.

Defendant is indigent.

Representation by public defenders... Allen?

Allen Wachtell?

Representing the estate of the late Murray Kaplan.

I'm not tossing the criminal charges just so you can begin suing us in civil

court. Excuse me, do I have to point out to you that Murray Kaplan died a hero

for this city?

Is this the gratitude he gets from pauperism for his wife and his children?

You're in my way. Al, come on.

Excuse me.

What's the problem here?

No problem, Your Honor.

Counselor Wachtell?

Yes, sir.

Good to see you back in court.

If you've got a moment, I'd like to see you in chambers.

Certainly.

See the heart of things, Irwin.

See what would have been best for Murray Catholic.

Okay, come on, come on.

You were giving me a hard time.

I don't even give you the benefit of the doubt.

You know, sometimes I think you're really coming along.

I mean, I think you're really developing a sense of warmth.

Something wrong, Joe?

Uh -uh.

So then why are you sitting there like you've got a broken neck?

You know those little black spots that float around in your eye, and no matter

how hard you try, you can never look at one?

Yeah.

Well, I got one balanced right in the middle, and I'm looking right at it.

That's great, Joe. That's really good. Maybe the sergeant should put this in

roll call. That's good.

Unbelievable.

The guy escapes.

Turn right here. It's faster.

We got on a woman in there. We got a unit doing the alien back.

We're to the dry cleaners. It's her house. What'd she say?

He doesn't like the interior decor.

We'll have a field phone set up and a jiffy. Oh, even as we speak here, throw

the switch and dial zero.

What are the demands?

120 milligrams of dilaudid.

I explained to Mr. Kasdan that the police do not supply narcotics. Mickey!

She's got nothing in here, man.

Nicky, come on out of there. We'll get you to a hospital. They'll take care of

business.

Don't rag me, man. Don't.

You get it in here or I'll take care of business in here.

How much do you need?

I told you, 150 milligrams of dilaudid.

I heard 120.

120,

Ben. Now get it in here.

How's Mrs. Redding?

She's cool for now.

She's better than that cop.

He's alive.

Keep on this.

Everything's going to be okay.

Listen, now, I need something from you.

Why don't you give me a little of that cool you showed me before?

You both need that now. You understand me, Nicky? This broad, she keeps looking

at me.

I don't know.

You see?

You see there?

You see?

Then don't look at her, Nicky. Don't pay any attention.

She keeps looking at me. Now, where's my stuff?

Okay.

I'm going to try and get it.

Take it easy.

You deployed?

Ready when you are, HG.

Not yet.

Not yet.

What's it like?

I can bring them both out, Frank.

Kasner and the woman.

I'm with you.

But I gotta get them high.

Frank?

I'm listening.

He wants 120 milligrams of Dilaudid. I contacted his girlfriend. I'm having her

brought here. But she said it's his right dosage.

Frank, it's all he wants.

Sort of.

Sort of, right.

I'll try to get your clearance, Henry. Frank, don't hang me up with him.

I'll call you back in two minutes.

Straight shooting, Frank. How did I do?

Straight shooting? He bloodied my nose once or twice, no question.

But on the issues, the man is a functional illiterate. People are going

that, don't you agree?

I think he licked you.

He's a damn Robson thing.

He hung me out to dry.

Never should have mentioned that letter.

Einstein's idea.

Chief, we have a situation over on Jefferson. I'd like to get your

authorization. Frank, I want your best recollection. Was I involved in a single

policy decision on the Robson matter?

Not to my knowledge. You're damn right. Good for you.

We're going to hit that hard in the morning papers, Frank. I did not make

decision one. Chief, it was Mahoney.

Guys off the deep end.

Thinks he knows my secret soul.

Well -intentioned as Dennis may have been, he has made a botch of this

department's... Decision -making, that has got to come out. Meaning you're back

to making decisions?

Candidate or not, I think I have to take up the reins.

We have an addict holding a hostage over on Jefferson.

He's demanding narcotics.

Narcotics? Henry believes they could buy us some lives.

Henry does?

I believe we ought to authorize.

Well, I have to trust your judgment, Frank. Go ahead, then.

Chief, we have some talking to do.

Gotta go.

We're clear on Robson.

Lieutenant Goldblum.

What did you think, Ray?

It was an interesting debate, Chief. I missed you, Ray. I'm sorry you weren't

there. I am, too.

That Robson business, I thought Ozzie was a little out of line.

Coming down to the wire, Ray, time to stand up and be counted.

I'm sorry, Chief.

I decided to vote for Ozzie. That could be a mistake you'll regret.

If it is, I will live with it.

Your Davis just called in. They've got it. They're on their way.

Talk to Nicky.

Nicky! Shut up! Shut her up! I got it!

Shoot.

Nicky?

Nicky, I've got it.

Give it to you.

I did it for you.

It's coming.

It's getting to me.
