Sal, gorgeous, sympathetic person. A couple of very large coffees, please.

Coming up.

Oh, Evan.

How did I ever let things get to this critical state? What early warning sign

did I miss?

Look, Harv, love by definition is never predictable.

Conventional or easy.

That's all peachy. But you're talking comic coffee here, man.

Harv, do you think I'd be willing to walk down this road with Cassidy unless

was, like, deadly serious?

Thank you, Sal.

I don't know, brother. Would you?

Not a chance. Not a chance. I know what's at risk.

So we'll set up surveillance here?

Okay, good.

Uh -oh, looks like Stacy's on the warpath.

Why would she be on the warpath?

I don't know, but I'm getting out of here. I think you're right.

All right, what's happening?

Hi. Hi.

About what?

You know what.

And I know you. You haven't looked into this woman yet, have you?

Despite what you said, you haven't investigated her.

As a matter of fact, you're wrong.

I did look into this woman, and she happens to be very nice.

You spoke to her?

Yes, I did. That was not part of our arrangement. You had no right to do

Excuse me. Aren't you overreacting here? No. The problem is you're

underreacting. Big time.

What's wrong with you?

Perhaps you should let me finish, Counselor.

I arranged for the lady to come by and meet with us later to explain what this

is all about.

Before she ever sets eyes on Nick.

Oh, I'll be there.

Why are you copying this attitude?

Who's copying the attitude?

I should have never mentioned this to you.

Eight. Good.

Fine. Fine.

Bye. Bye.

Joe, bye.

I'm in love with her. You know, I think about her all the time.

I'm prepared to live with consequences.

in between.

Recognized anyone?

No, man. These guys, they just totally opened up on us for no reason. They had

reason. I'm telling you, Nash, I've never seen these guys before in my life.

it was absolutely random.

I'm not saying they had a reason to shoot Harvey.

I'm saying they had a reason to shoot a cop. Or at least they thought they did.

Barney. Hey, Nash, how are you?

You tell me.

Oh, he's one of yours?

Yeah. Well, the bullet was small.

I'm guessing .22 caliber and uncharacteristically it passed right

shoulder. So he's going to be fine.

That's lucky.

How long are you going to keep him?

Overnight. Don't worry. He'll get a good night's rest and some hospital jello.

Oh, yum.

See ya. See ya.

Ah, now that's a good look. Please, no gifts, no prying.

I hear next year we'll all be wearing the mummy.

Well, I told Evan that too much caffeine could kill us, but he had to stop for

the second cup.

What happened, Harvey?

What happened is... You didn't see it coming?

Hell no. I was going to ask this girl where she got her belly button tattoo or

something, Nash, and then she's pulling the trigger.

Rookie mistake. I'm sorry.

Why are you apologizing?

Cortez? Yeah, Sarge?

I got my gun.

Yeah, I heard.

Okay, great. Thanks.

Listen, the getaway car was registered to a Bennett Cole who's a junior in high

school.

school girl and her metalhead boyfriend. I can't wait for that to get around.

Well, look at the bright side. What bright side? They could have been in

high school.

Nurse, hallucinogenics, please.

So you guys, what can I do?

Jello, baby.

We got it. See you later.

All right.

Nurse Nicole there, Bubba? Oh, my damn allergies are acting up again.

What in the hell is that?

A science project?

I'm a germ conscious.

Inga read this thing about how germs are pests.

You know what the number one thing you can do for health is?

Uh, celibacy.

That's number two.

Wash your hands.

No doubt.

So, uh, what's up with this woman who wants to get in touch with Nick, man?

Beats the hell out of me. We're gonna meet with her and find out.

Hey, you know, uh, you might have a sibling out there you didn't even know

about, you know?

Hear that story about the guy who was sleeping with this woman turned out to

his long -lost sister?

Well, but you've got to cut back on the Jerry Springer.

Hey, maybe we're related, man. You sound Latino?

Too late.

You're already my brother.

Si, como no.

Nash. Michelle.

What's up?

This kid that we got over here, his name is Bennett Cole.

It turns out that his car got boosted out of the Emerson High School parking

yesterday morning.

His principal confirmed it.

Michelle? Go over to the high school and get Evan the yearbooks for a couple

years back.

Go through all the pictures.

We could get lucky.

Our shooters could be or were former students.

And check and see if they've got a kid print program.

I'm on it.

Meantime, stay on this kid.

He might not even know what he knows.

Hey,

Joe. National Run?

Uh, he's out on the fantail with Stacy.

Not to be disturbed.

I got the yearbooks.

Okay, well, just give them to me. I'll drop them by Evans on my way home. Okay.

The commander left all of his papers to the academy at Annapolis.

And when I was going through his thing, I found these.

He never got your letters?

No. I never got his, thanks to my father.

He didn't approve of Nick. He thought I could do better.

And as the commanding officer,

of the naval base at Pearl Harbor, I'm quite sure that he was responsible for

Nick's being transferred in the spring of 44.

He liked to point out the fact that the reason I never heard from him again was

because Nick was only interested in one thing.

It's a touching story, Ms. Porter, except for the fact that my father was

engaged to my mother at the time. I was 17 years old.

I was far from home.

We were at war.

I won't allow you to punish me for that, Miss Bridges.

So, this is about getting your letters to Nick 50 years later?

No. No.

When I was going through the commander's things, I also found this.

It's a recommendation for your father to receive the Navy Cross.

It's all there.

All the paperwork.

Incredible. I'm ashamed to say that the commander, my father, buried the

request.

For extraordinary heroism in combat.

Leyte Gulf, Philippines, October 25, 1944.

Did you ever hear about this?

No word.

I felt Nick at least deserved to know what happened.

And what do you get out of it?

The last word.

Well, I might have married your dad.

If... My father hadn't meddled.

And although it irrevocably changed my life, I survived. I married.

I had kids.

I have grandkids.

But learned anything, it's that we're far more resilient than we think when we

have our hearts broken.

You still haven't answered my question.

I'd like very much to see your dad, Miss Bridget.

To give him these few things.

If it's all right with you and your brother.

Excuse us.

That's maybe the most tragically romantic story I've ever heard.

Yeah.

I guess you're changing your tune a little, huh? Yeah, I am. I can't believe

Well, I guess we're gonna deliver some long overdue mail.

Yeah, I bought those yearbooks to buy us something down in the living room.

Great, great, thanks.

Hey, did you check on Harvey?

Huh? Harvey, you know, at the hospital, did you check on him?

Oh, right, right, right. Yeah, yeah, I talked to him down there. Everything's

fine. I say he's getting better.

When's he get out?

Look, Joe, I'm taking a shower here. Do you think maybe we can talk about it

later? Oh, excuse me.

Is there a problem?

Problem? How did it go down?

How did what go down?

You know exactly what I'm talking about.

No, I don't know what you're talking about.

Because if I did know what you were talking about, I'd have to tell Ness.

Because I can't keep a secret from him.

And that would not be good for you or me.

Joe, that's not the kind of music I want to deliver to you, ever.

Joe, Joe, you gotta help me here, bro.

Oh, bro, I'll help you out. I got some advice for you.

Either tend yourself or transfer out. But whatever you do, do it quickly.

Hey, nice man.

Boys and girls.

Thank you, Michelle.

Wait, baby, please. There's a sling man walking here.

Harvey, welcome back. We missed you.

Really? You're not just saying that?

Of course not.

I'm still checking, boss.

Check faster.

Yes, sir.

Yes? That was the principal at Emerson.

We got a match on the kid print program.

Isabella Cuffold dropped out two years ago.

Isabella Cuffold, Evan, 96.

Got it.

That's her, that's her.

I got her parents' address.

You watch those doors?

Got it.

That's the guy.

That's them.

Ready?

Yeah.

Hey, Nick.

Hey, son.

What are you doing home?

Well, I've got some stuff for you.

We met with this woman who apparently you used to know.

Miss Julia Ann Porter.

Julia?

How did that happen?

Well, she was looking for you.

And she tracked you down through Stacy.

She wanted you to have this.

Which is what?

It's a letter of recommendation for you to be awarded the Navy Cross.

She found it in her father's things after he died.

How come you never told me about that?

I was on a ship. My war stories don't amount to anything.

The boys, the Marines, took those islands. They had the stories.

I read this, Nick.

It says in here that you shot down a Japanese kamikaze pilot who was about to

bomb the bridge of the ship.

The Admiral's flagship.

Is that true?

That's true.

Well, what happened?

It says you read it.

Well, I did read it. Tell me.

I was on the USS Phoenix, Admiral Berkeley's flagship.

It was part of the 7th Fleet.

We were standing off a hellacious battle.

Guns blasting, planes getting shot down everywhere.

It's a terrible thing to say, but you could look out and in a way it was

beautiful. The planes' acrobatics, the trails of gun and cannon fire, the

bursting of aircraft in the air.

I noticed this sand -colored plane was coming right for us.

It was strange because nobody else seemed to get what was happening.

I wasn't a gunner, but I was on a four -deck near the port side.

I just ran over to the thing and started firing.

I hit it.

First the wing fell off, and I hit it again.

I got it good.

And 30 yards short of the ship, it plowed into the sea.

Damn.

You saved your ship.

Well, I didn't do anything that anybody else wouldn't have done.

I just got to the gun first.

Nick, how many men would have died on that ship if the plane had crashed into

it?

A lot of good men would have died.

I can still see the face of that pilot when that plane hit the water.

Um, Nick, there's some letters in here, too, that you might find interesting.

They're letters that you sent to Julia that she never received and letters that

she wrote to you that you never got.

Unopened.

Her father intercepted them.

He never liked me.

I got that.

Whoo! What is that funky smell?

That wouldn't be B .O., would it?

Smuggling pneumonia?

Ronnie, is he downwind?

Hard to tell you with all these backdrafts in here.

Joe. Grab that end of the tape.

My pleasure. Go that way.

All right.

Now then, we can make this quick.

We know you managed Nolan Boyd. We're looking for a follower of the band.

As a matter of fact, this guy right here.

You've got your arm around.

Do you fear God?

Let me tell you something, stinkbait.

You don't answer my question, you're going to fear me a lot in a minute.

Satan.

Satan.

Satan.

Oh, I get it. You want to make your one phone call now, huh?

I need a name.

You're getting a bath.

Right there.

You can't do that.

The hell I can't.

That water's 50 degrees. I can't swim.

Well, then, if you can't swim, the water temperature don't make any difference.

Do it now.

Excellent point.

Want to call Satan now?

Floyd Jonovich.

Who's he?

He's part of the scene.

Floyd's the craziest, most totally rage -filled follower of the band we've ever

had.

You guys were pals, huh?

We both modeled our lives after Charlie Manson.

He managed a band.

Comforting.

Hey, Ben.

Don't flinch or I'll blow your head off.

Nice place you got here. Those are decorated.

You can have a seat. Right over here. Come on.

What do you want?

So, Sarah.

Can I call you Sarah?

No.

What an incredible color on you. Are you a winter? You are, aren't you?

Oh, did you know, this is totally funny story, but did you know that your

husband tried to do me in the Xerox? No. Oh, yeah.

Hey, you just stay away from her. Watch it on your left finger.

Look at that. Nice, huh?

Shoot on this.

Come on. Let me show you something out here.

We are going to have so much fun.

Morning, Nick.

Morning, Tom.

Coffee?

Did you get any sleep last night?

Not much.

Thanks.

I never meant to hurt your mother, Nash.

I know. Of course I told her, but you know how she was.

Mm -hmm.

Probably never mentioned it again, I suppose.

Not a word.

She still agreed to marry me.

Nick, I... I was in love with Julia Nash.

I loved your mother, too, and God knows I did.

But... Julia... There was just something about her.

The one that got away, huh?

Maybe.

But I would have married her.

been for her old man.

You kids never would have been born.

Dick, you don't have to apologize to me.

I'm not. I just can't get my mind around the idea.

Those letters, what might have been.

Looking at you here, how sad.

Can I be and how thankful at the same time?

Me?

Oh.

You look like somebody I used to know.

Maybe I am.

Death metal heads they struck again, this time aloft and soma.

Who's our friend here?

Unnamed. Found on the premises.

My guess is he's not talking, huh?

I guess they brought her along to take part in whatever sick ritual they're

into. Tell me what happened at the mansion.

Double homicide.

The homeowners, Ben and Sarah Tanner.

Both of them shot.

With my gun.

Harvey.

You cannot take this personally.

They didn't need your gun. They were going to do it anyway.

Nevertheless, man.

Hey, you want to feel better?

Let's get these bastards.

I guarantee a serious attitude improvement.

Okay.

They, uh... They took the Tannin's Jaguar for their getaway. And I already

it on the hot sheet for the watch commanders on the next shift.

All right.

What else you got?

I know you've got something else.

The victim, Ben Tannen, he ran a wireless communications company.

I look into the employment records and I noticed he often used this ready -to

-assist temp services.

Found that in Isabella's room.

It's a pay stub.

She worked for ready -to -assist. Two weeks ago, last summer, Tannen's office.

You are the man, brother.

You're awesome, man.

I think we finally got ourselves a motive. My guess is they have a grudge

Mom was on it, the former boss. Now the trick is to figure out who's next.

Yeah, we find out who Floyd and Isabella have some big problem with, right?

Exactly. Don't worry, Nash, because I ain't going home until we get them.

Don't overdo it. Evan, come over here.

Evan. Okay, wait a second. Let me go first, okay?

I just, I wasn't the one that wanted to tell you, okay? But she insisted on

telling you, even though that you know and I know and everybody else knows that

Joe can't keep her secret. Okay? I just wanted to say that I'm a changed man.

And I'm totally committed to making this thing work. And I absolutely will not

let this interfere with our working relationship or our job relationship or

of that stuff. And I just wanted to, you know, hopefully get your blessing.

Thank you, sir.

Joe. Hmm? What?

Yeah?

Guess what?

What? I just had the most interesting conversation with ever.

Uh -huh. Yeah.

I called him over to tell him to keep an eye on Har when he's in this state, and

he started babbling about something else, including that you can't keep a

from me.

Uh -huh.

Uh -huh.

And yet you do have a secret, don't you? Uh -huh.

Is that uh -huh or uh -uh?

I don't have a secret because I forgot what it is I saw for this exact reason.

What did you forget?

That, um... Evidence keeping with your daughter?

That's not a good joke.

It's not a joke.

Cassidy? Hey, Dad.

We have to talk.

Who told you?

Who cares?

Hell, it could have been anybody, because apparently everybody knows but

Wait a minute.

Yeah, Nash.

The grudge list.

Uh -huh, talk to me. I'd say we got us a primo candidate.

Name? Roy Janovich, Floyd's father. We were going through some Isabella stuff.

We found some song lyrics, probably a spec song for Null and Void. Mm -hmm.

It was entitled Burn the Old Man Down. It had a number of references to a Roy,

although Roy is a common rhyming word. Did you run Roy Janovich through CIC?

That's a good idea. Hold on, I'll do it right now.

All right, now then. Take your phone call, Dad. We have nothing at all.

Oh, I think we do.

You cannot come in here and tell me how to live my life. Wait a minute, sister.

Don't you launch your missiles yet.

No, he's clean. No record.

I'm an adult.

Find him, okay?

Even better, my personal goal is to get you an address for Floyd himself.

Don't realize that, Dad.

Great, keep me posted. Hold it.

When you go to college, sometime in the next few months, you can make all the

adult decisions you want to make.

In the meantime, I'm your father.

And I'm going to give you my strong opinion that this thing with Evan is not

smooth move. It's a bad move.

Oh, yeah?

I'm not going to college in the next few months, Dad.

Oh, really?

And when were you going to enlighten me?

Sometime in the next damn millennium?

I auditioned for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. They offered me a six -month

contract in Ashland. I think I'm going to take the job.

I don't think you are.

You see, you've had your year off before college, and now you are damn skippy

going to college. This is not your decision.

Do you remember me?

I'm your father, and I'm not going to stand around and watch you throw your

away. There's nothing you can do about it. Yeah?

Just watch me.

You watch me.

What's the matter, son?

You look terrible.

I just found out that Cassidy's dating Evan.

And?

Well, I just went over there to talk to her about it and... Nash, she's

a good kid.

The hay's in the barn, as they say.

You raised her, you've got to trust she's got the smarts to do the right

Oh, and that's another thing.

College?

She's not even going to go to college now.

It's a nightmare.

Well, I'm quite certain that if...

You went over there. You didn't leave without letting her know your opinions.

This is true.

Then you've done all you can do now.

Come on.

We've got some fish to do for lunch here.

I saw that.

This time we go to the doctor.

What's the doctor going to say that those genius dentists didn't? I don't

to sit in an emergency room all day.

What, are you crazy?

I've shot half the people that get treated in there.

Probably go right to the front of the line.

Well, even so, look.

It's feeling bad at night, and then it feels better in the morning, so... Let's

wait until tomorrow.

Hey.

Fine. Whatever you want to do. Because I'm finished telling anybody what to do.

I need you out of here now. Come on, let's go.

No,

no, no, no, no!

Well, well.

What do we got here? What's your name?

Roy Johnovich.

What the hell is this?

Well, Roy, we got a warrant here for your son, Floyd.

He doesn't live here.

That's his sick idea of a joke.

I've got nothing to do with Floyd.

He is your son, right?

I didn't raise him. I don't talk to him.

I've got my own wife and family.

That wasn't the question.

He is your biological son, right?

Yes.

I'm sick and tired of being harassed by the cops for the crap he pulls. He's not

my responsibility.

Now let me go.

Well, you're just a wonderful role model, aren't you, Roy?

Well, you should be glad to see us.

Yeah, why?

Well, because our research shows that Floyd's on his way over here to take

ass out.

We could be friends. It'll be nice.

You have an address on his mom?

Nope, I don't.

Well, look what we have here. Bennett, we see you again.

You know this cop? I talked to him at the police station about my car.

Floyd's your brother, right?

Half -brother.

Floyd stole my car? Did you see him? What'd I tell you? Shut up.

How do we find Floyd?

in real life, trust me. Now it's time for you to start doing some rational

thinking, Isabella.

Eat me!

You ever heard of Carter Faye Tucker?

She'd be on death row, but now her cell's available.

Give her a drift.

I killed my mother, and I killed Tanner and his wife, too.

Floyd had nothing to do with any of it.

That's my statement.

I got a secret for you.

I'm going to get Floyd.

Because I know who his next hit's going to be.

It's either his dad or Bennett.

Wrong.

I'm not wrong.

When he shows up to see them, he's going to see me.

Then I'm going to save the state a little money if you get my drift.

You've had your last conversation with him.

You won't even be able to say bye.

You'll never get him!

Yes. Change, I want you to get some clothes out of property. I want to set

hook on Isabella, and you're the bait.

I know she's going to try to warn Floyd, so your job is to get us the number.

Got it? Sure, no problem.

Now get out of my face. Get out of here.

Everybody except for you.

That little girl means more to me than anything in the entire

world.

I understand that.

Good.

Love that.

Hi. Hi.

I don't want to fight with you.

Me either.

But I do have something I want to say.

So go ahead.

Every parent has hopes and dreams for his child.

So what do you do when he or she does

something that you don't think is right?

Maybe you gave her credit for making responsible decisions.

All right.

Maybe you're right.

But it would be worse if I didn't tell you how I felt about something as

important as college.

And who I fell in love with.

Well, it's a bit more subjective, I guess.

But I'm probably still going to weigh in on it.

In fact, I can almost guarantee you that I won't be able to help myself.

Daddy, you might not like this thing with Evan, but I love him.

Okay. And I have to see where it goes.

Fair enough.

So how clenched are your teeth?

Pretty clenched.

That's okay.

I also wanted to tell you that I spoke to the drama professor over at Berkeley,

and it turns out there's a lot more opportunity to do stuff over there than

thought.

Meaning?

I turned the Oregon Festival down.

I'm going to go to Berkeley in September.

That's... That's good.

Don't hide it. If you want to be gleeful, be gleeful.

All right.

Yes.

Danny, hold up. Yeah, I'll call you.

How'd it go? How'd it go?

Oh,

baby, thank you very much. One -handed hug here. I'll run a reverse on it. I'll

give Nash and Joe a call.

I'm going to take six or seven pain pills.

Harvey, you're not here. I'm not here. You didn't see me. You're right, I

didn't. I had to come.

I had to say that. Where is he? Watchman's trailer, middle of the

This is Tennant's Jaguar. He's here, Nash.

His squad is set up and ready.

All right, good.

Harv, dial him up.

Doesn't have to be Houdini to get out of this one.

Yeah. Hello, Floyd.

Guess what?

What? Party's over.

Come and get me then!

Uh, we can do that.

Good! Bring him up!

More than barrier.

You've got exactly one minute to walk out of there with your hands high.

Personally, I don't give a rat's ass whether you do it or not.

That makes two of us.

Block's running.

He's up to something.

Okay, Harv.

At least the dog's a war.

Squad, that's a go. That's a go.

Barb, get him out of there.

Get him out of there now.

Abort. You read me? Abort now.

Get out of here. Go back.

Well,

I guess Isabella was right.

Barb, Heaven.

Check and make sure all the guys are okay.

Nash, you're late. Where's Dad?

He's getting changed.

Relax, we're going to be fine. Wow, you look great. Look at you. Frank, so do

you.

Here I am.

Ready or not.

Nick, you look incredible.

Do you still fit into your old uniform?

We cheated.

Stacy had it tailored.

What's the matter?

I'm sure it's just a bad case of nerves.

Why does this have to be such a big deal?

Because it is a big deal.

What's the matter with you?

All right.

Can I sit down a minute?

Nick?

Dad? Nick? Oh, my God, now.

Nick? Stacy, call 911.

Nick?

Hey, are you okay?

I need to connect to 8555 Sacramento Street.

My father's collapsed.

Yes. Are you with me, Dad?

Thank you.
