I can't believe you're being so cavalier about turning on 20 grand.

I don't like the circumstances.

What circumstances?

This is just a rich couple who've lost their pet. I mean, you know, Coochie's

like a member of the family.

You wouldn't turn on a missing persons gig, would you? I don't do pet gigs.

You don't do pet gigs?

No, don't do pet gigs. That's what I just said.

Since when? I never heard this rule.

Since oh, about 90 seconds ago.

Coochie is the cat's name?

She was named by their five -year -old daughter. Hey, man, you wouldn't turn

down a little five -year -old girl who's lost her kitty. Look at that.

You're not getting to me.

You can't get to me. I got a heart of steel.

Slow down. The house is right up there.

Good. Then we can stop bypass on the gig and be back at the office in 15

minutes.

Oh, my God. I can't believe what we're seeing.

What? Do you see that?

Look. It's Goofy.

This is the easiest 20 grand you ever made. I'll eat your upholstery.

Hey, all right. No sudden moves. Get out of the car. I can do better than that.

I won't get out at all.

Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty.

You know what? Maybe you should have told him no fast moves.

Don't worry. I'll get him.

Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty.

here kitty come on yeah that's good that's it come on come on come on kitty

on come on come on over here

25 years, I've never heard you use that voice.

You know, for 20 grand, you might want to help me.

How about if I cut him off at the pass?

All right, I'll go up here.

That was a nice party, honey, but can you believe Jenkins?

Yeah, well, he's a show -off.

Major Dominguez, we've had an auto robbery at Green and Larkin. We need

paramedics right away.

Gotcha. Are you okay? Oh, my God. It's okay. It's all right.

Nice. I'm going to call the trauma team and get some patrol units out there.

It's all right. It's all right. We're the good guys.

We're the good guys. Okay.

Ran the dead guy's license for the DMV. His name and address belong to another

dead guy.

He's even got an organ donor. I know. You've got to love a crook with a cunt.

Hey, Robbery Homicide said this is the third strong -arm robbery this month,

they're not carjackers. They're not taking cars. They're hitting wealthy

-goers for their jewelry and cash.

All right, tell Robbery we'll take him. I'm loving that. I want to get these

guys. Harvey, I know I hit the guy that got away. Probably in the shoulder. All

right, we'll get a blood match, and I'll bullet in all the ERs and the clinics.

The victims were coming from a local fundraiser on the hill. The wife was

wearing a canary diamond necklace worth $700 ,000.

Plus a $60 ,000 watch where it's sorted rings and five grand in cash.

Not bad for an afternoon drive, huh?

It's not the company.

Oh, no, it's been having me getting much sleep lately, man.

There's some hideous kid out riding up and down the street in a beat -up Camaro

doing 80 miles an hour.

You get the license number?

No, it's too quick.

By the time I get to the window, he's already turned the corner.

I mean, what if Lucia's out front playing, you know? Oh, man, don't even

about that.

I'll tell you what you do. Call down to traffic.

Get a hold of Iron Mike.

He'll take care of it.

Iron Mike.

Iron Mike. All right, thanks.

Don't look now, Nashman, but either we're in trouble or you're being

Oh, well, Miss Cruz, are you lost, found, or just in the mood for some sea

My sister's pregnant.

Oh, that's... That's not great.

She's a nun.

That could be a problem, huh?

I know you guys do detective work of duty, so I want to hire you to find out

the father is.

She's not saying who the father is? Oh, no, she's saying.

She's saying it's a virgin birth.

A virgin birth, you say?

Uh, you know, this, uh, it sounds like it might be a family matter, Belinda, or

possibly a church matter, but I don't think it's something we want Joe and I

involved in, do you?

So I should just accept what she's saying?

Is that what you're saying?

What?

Um, hold that thought.

Yeah.

Bigger prints came back on our dead guy, Jesse Marcello, a filly. He had a

jacket as long as the Freedom Trail, armed robbery, possession of stolen

grand theft auto.

Also, the guy you wounded, Nash, he was pumping AB neg, very rare. Only two

blood banks in the city stock, and I checked both.

Divisadero is three pints low.

Take Rachel. Taken.

Um, Belinda, how important is this to you?

Very.

Okay. We'll look into it.

That'll be interesting.

Divine paternity.

Mr.

Pipkin? Yes.

How you doing?

Inspectors McCabe and Leak, SFPD. We understand that three pints of AB

went missing this afternoon.

We were told you might know something about that.

Will you excuse me just a moment? I have some plasma on the centrifuge.

What did he say? Plasma on the centrifuge?

Mr. Pipkin!

Whoa!

Mr. Pipkin?

Stay right there.

Okay, don't shoot.

Yeah, buddy, put the skunk down, okay? I did it for Gordon.

It was all for Gordon.

Fine. This is Gordon?

Yeah. He's not well.

Mr. Pipkin, we're not going to hurt the skunk or you, so maybe you can put him

down. Yeah, why don't you just tell us what happened to the AB neck?

I traded it to Gordon's vet in exchange for treatments.

I'll take care of that little girlfriend of yours in Baltimore.

Understand me?

Yeah, I get it.

What about Jimmy?

Jimmy's getting fixed up right now. Then we take him out of here with us. For

now, we're tight. Got it?

Got it. There he is.

Isn't it wonderful how the Lord chose our church for this wonderful miracle?

Well, sister, he doesn't believe in miracles.

Oh, no, no. With all due respect, I just don't believe in this miracle.

I don't blame you. If the Lord himself wandered in off the streets, I suspect

many of us would not believe it was him.

Uh -huh. Well, just on the off chance that this isn't a virgin birth, do you

know of anyone around here that could be the father? Well, I thought you might

ask that. There's Takashi Shimomura, the gardener. He's 85.

Then there's Kendrick, the executive assistant, if you know what I mean.

Oh, he's gay?

Extremely. Uh -huh.

adopted. Who's that?

Oh, that's Father Tim. He's passionate about music. He loves to rehearse with

our group.

That was great.

Let's call it a day.

There she is.

Sister Victoria.

Sister Victoria.

Thanks, Sister. We can take it from here.

Captain, Sister Victoria's situation is a sublime gift to all mankind and a

blessed event.

You must not feel ashamed to play the doubting Thomas in all of this.

Right.

Come along, Brother Thomas.

Angel?

Hello, Nash.

Joe.

Nash Bridges.

She told me you'd come.

Well, your sister wanted us to talk with you about your

condition.

Yes, I know what she's looking to do and why.

Look, sister, we don't mean any disrespect.

It's just your... Well, given your condition and what it might mean to the

church... Let me stop you.

This is simple.

I woke up one day and I felt something.

Something I never felt before that I knew could only be one thing.

I went to the drugstore, bought a kit, and the result was positive.

Since I haven't broken my vow of chastity, there can only be one

right?

Sister, have you thought about what this might mean when it gets out?

What could happen to the church, everyone here, to you, your family?

We just want to give you a chance to think about that and think about the

What you and Belinda are looking for, Mr. Bridges, you're not going to find.

In fact, what you do find may challenge your faith.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

He's nice.

Oh, yeah, he's very nice. Angel, what's your involvement in this? Same as yours,

Nash. How's that?

I'm still your guardian angel.

Angel, answer the question.

I just did.

Excuse me.

Inspectors Leak and McCabe SFPD.

We're looking for the doctor you know where he is.

We have a warrant.

She's warning us. What

the

hell? Relax, lie down. Son of a bitch is operating on him right here.

He can't have gotten far. Ronnie will get him. He's really bleeding. We've got

to stop it.

Harvey, you know how to take a pulse?

Yeah. All right then, do it.

Put gloves on.

Put pressure here.

And then take the top, okay?

All right, all right, take it easy, take it easy. Easy, easy, easy.

I got it, I got it, I got it.

Give me a second.

About 130.

He's gone.

Ronnie, get the paramedics on the phone. Tell them we have a white male, 30,

with a gunshot wound to the shoulder. He's bleeding and hypotensive.

Blood pressure 70 over 40, pulse 130. Gotcha.

Gotcha. Gushing over here.

All right, move over, move over. Hand me that mask.

Right there.

Right there. Take the white male, 30, gunshot wound to the shoulder, bleeding

and hypotensive.

The last thing I'm going to do is cut down. Find me a bag of saline. You've

to get fluids in this bag. McCabe, what are you doing?

Do it or he's going to die. Harvey, do it. All right.

Officer Bridges.

No, I'm sorry, you have the wrong extension. Hold.

Antoine, line two, some guy from administration.

Inspector Babcock.

Uh -huh.

No, no, no, no, that is not correct. According to the letter I received, I

no benefits.

Yeah, yeah, but it was supposed to roll over from Bayview, not Embarcadero.

Wait, what?

That suspension ended over a year ago. What does that have to do with...

Look, my benefits rolled over from Embarcadero to Bayview, and I want them

rolled over to the SIU.

Don't make me tell you again.

Hello, Nick.

Hi, John.

You remember Angel?

He's going to sleep on the couch until I can get him into the shelter.

Yeah, sure I do.

Well, my other son Bobby promised he'd be over later to help me with this.

Bobby's not going to come over, Nick.

You know that, don't you?

I know it.

That'd be impossible, wouldn't it?

I don't know what I was thinking.

Oh, yes, thank you. Angel, you're welcome.

Come on over here. I want to ask you a question.

I want you to tell me the truth.

No mumbo -jumbo, no platitudes, no angel speak.

Just the truth.

Always do, Nash.

I want you to tell me that you're not the father of Sister Victoria's baby.

How could I be?

Angel. I believe you're having a crisis of faith, Nash.

Otherwise, you would be open to the possibility that this pregnancy might be

miracle.

The only thing that's miraculous about this pregnancy is that I got talked into

investigating it.

Now, I'm fairly sure that I know how women get pregnant.

And it isn't metaphysical. It's biological.

So I'm thinking that since you've been roosting over there at the rectory, you

might know more than you think.

You spend your life gathering facts, Nash.

It's your job. You gather facts. You build a case.

You solve mysteries.

But sometimes the mysteries of life do not fall to such simple equations.

Well, I'll be damned.

I have been working on this for two days, and I've suddenly got the whole

finished.

Good morning, Doctor.

Can we not make a big deal out of this, please?

We got a very good pair of hands here, Ditch. I'm sure.

How's the patient this morning? Alive and kicking.

And fully lawyered up.

Oh.

They plan on paying me.

Oh, joy.

Ira Buck's bomb.

Take a breath, Captain. My client's not well enough to talk, thanks to you.

What, you got something against Mix? You had to shoot him? He shot at me first.

Allegedly. And as I recall, the mood I was in at the time, he's lucky to be

lying here at all.

Oh, enough of your self -congratulatory spewing, Captain.

I got to get to my son's bar mitzvah. You know what? I'm sorry, Ira, but I'm

on your son's schedule.

Do you know how much this party's cost to me?

Do you know how many incredibly wealthy heavy hitters are going to be there?

No to both questions.

My son's take should be $75 ,000 minimum.

I'm happy for you, but I'm not going anywhere, and neither are you, until

client talks to me. Are you crazy?

I ain't telling him nothing.

You think I'm stupid?

If he tells you the names of his partners, they kill him and I end up

Bucket. Just tell him about the caterer.

I told you that in conference.

The caterer? What caterer?

Hey, hi.

Inspector Dominguez.

Officer Mike Willis in traffic.

Hey, thanks for coming over, Mike. Listen, I got this problem.

Traffic problem?

Yeah. The speeder. He's up and down here like crazy. You know, it's a family

neighborhood and I got a little daughter.

Say no more.

Got three of my own.

All I want them to do is grow up secure in the knowledge that they're protected

by the purity and simplicity of the MPSL.

Maximum posted speed limit.

Right, right.

All anyone ever has to say to Mike Willis is, all right, Mike, bring peace

neighborhood.

Okay.

All right, Mike, bring peace to my neighborhood.

Done. All right.

I didn't become a priest to score chicks, I assure you.

Then why did you call us down here?

Let's just say I heard something in confession.

Uh, do you want to give us a hint?

I'm sorry. The seal of confession is inviolable.

Uh -huh.

Well, then, uh, why are we here?

I can tell you this.

The key is above you.

If you look hard enough, you will find the answer.

I'll tell you something.

If people like him were a little less obtuse, you wouldn't be able to get a

in mass.

Yeah, well, obtuse or not, he just gave us a clue.

Divine intervention.

Wait, wait. You can't break into my sister's room. She's a nun.

She's a pregnant nun. If she can bend the rules, so can we.

Check that director over there. What are we looking for?

The answer to our prayer.

Oh, my.

Nash?

we found Victoria's secret.

If you'll pardon the pun.

Oh, there he is over there.

Hold on.

What's going on? What's going on is you're going to get rid of that storm

trooper you brought in.

You, with the cane.

Hold on, you're jaywalking.

Oh, and by the way, these are yours.

Do you have a driver's license?

No, I don't have a driver's license.

Can I see some form of ID? Is there something wrong with you?

Hey, Joseph.

We just talked to this caterer. He definitely knows more than he's telling

Problem is, he's not telling us anything.

Uh -huh. Is there anything going on? Yeah, big to -do at the Pacific Heights

this afternoon.

Reception for some internet geek. Lots of money.

Okay, good. Let's set up on it. Cool.

in 20 seconds.

We're rolling.

Open the door now!

Open the door!

Open up!

What? I know!

Here, here, here!

It's for money. Give it to me now. Look, look, we can work something out, can't

we? You've got any representation, right?

Say goodbye.

Arlene, give me the tatchel, please.

Here.

Go, go.

You know, people have been talking.

About what?

Why you've moved around so much.

In the department.

You're not going to tell me, are you?

Maybe someday.

All units, car robbery in progress. Jackson and Laguna, code three.

That's our guys, not here someplace else. Damn.

Fox 5?

I hope this camera doesn't exist.

Where the hell were you guys ten minutes ago?

Getting my nails done. You like them? Hey, Ira, let me guess. Two SUVs, a box

and the whole thing was over in 50 seconds.

If you're such a mind reader, why weren't you here?

Guess what, Ira?

You just got jacked by a client's crew.

What? Oh, yeah.

Mazel tov, Ira.

What do you got for us, Harvey? Okay, Jared Cosgrove, our suspect hater. He's

got a brother who's a big party planner in Philly.

He employs a party photographer, and that photographer sent us these goods,

which should give us a very good idea of who's in this crew.

Okay, we don't have all the real names, so I took the liberty of making a few

up. These guys we know, Rooster and Tan Man, our captured guy and our dead guy,

respectively, Jimmy McDonald, Chessie Marcello.

This guy I like to call Captain Cook because they make him cook, you know,

the time. This dude had to make up some names. Suave Bola, look at his hair.

And, um, low IQ.

Because, look, these eyes, way too close together.

Oh, and this guy, Blackbeard, he's the leader.

Uh -huh.

Interesting work, Harvey. Well, thank you. You know, all the scissors training

in kindergarten really played off. I get it. So this is a list of the fancy

parties that the crew worked posing as caterers.

Smart plan.

Yeah, my question is, if they know we're on to them, why are they still in town?

Maybe they got something set up that's too juicy to walk away from.

Maybe. Captain, phone call.

Thank you.

Good afternoon, sweetheart.

You remember me?

Captain Bridges, SIU. I speak English.

My attorney already told you guys I'm not talking.

Well, you know what? That's funny. That's why I brought your attorney with

Ira.

Hey,

you know what? Ira, he told us that you told him not to talk to us.

Hey, he's an attorney.

All right, all right, Ira.

Get down.

names of the guys in your crew, Jimmy.

Starting with the guy that you called with the tip for the bar mitzvah.

What are you talking about? I didn't call anybody.

They have the number here from the hospital phone records, genius.

Roger Smith.

That's the leader right there?

Yeah. All right, what about the rest of these guys?

Bruce Philly. You know that guy?

Now, where did we find them?

I don't know.

I'm telling the truth.

We were at the Leonard Hotel.

If anybody got killed or captured, the contingency was always to move.

All right, where's the loot?

Same thing.

Where'd you put it?

In a field out by Candlestick Park.

That's like real pirates, huh?

I guess.

Joe, let's give this guy Roger Smith a call.

You're telling me my kid's bought Mitzvah money? It's hidden out by the

where 85 ,000 49er fans go past every weekend?

You're too stupid for me to represent you.

Hey, the hiding places were always good.

I'm going to hide my knee in your nuts.

Ira, step down.

I'm trying to make a phone call.

Who's this?

Yeah, hi, this is Captain Bridges, SIU.

Now, I'm calling you on the phone. How far away do you think I am from getting

you? Far enough.

Hey, do me a favor.

If my friend Jimmy's still around, tell him his wife and kid are dead for him

telling you my name.

One more thing, Captain.

You get in my way, I'm going to make you dead, too.

Be careful, Bubba.

I ain't easy to kill.

I don't think he was happy to hear from me.

I don't know why.

uh joe don't be stupid

dr addison to nurses station three west dr addison good news

dude attorney ira bucksbaum here he's agreed to represent you pro bono for

for free really why would he do that i'm gay and i think you're hot i'm gay Ira,

all attorneys do a certain amount of pro bono work. Yeah, I mean, we could get

you a public defender.

Your choice. You got about ten seconds.

I did 36 months in Lompoc because of a public defender. I'll pay Ken.

Excellent choice. My client agrees to give you the location of the next

in exchange for 36 months on a war farm and five years probation.

All right. The DA is willing to accept that plea. Just sign here.

Signing.

Done. All right. Tell him.

What? No way.

Look, you don't back out of an agreement with the DA.

No way.

He didn't make an agreement.

Hey, that's not the way the DA's gonna see it. Oh, dude, now he's gonna push

thing all the way to trial. Oh, yeah, I mean, now you're gonna face maximum

sentencing guidelines. You'll be lucky if you get off with less than 45 years.

Look, if there was ever a time to listen to your attorney, this is it. Take the

plea.

Can't wait. You've taken too long, man. No, sorry, that's it.

Okay, okay, okay!

Video Heights, tomorrow afternoon.

Who's getting hit?

Everybody.

Hello, Joe.

Hey, Nick.

Hey, Angel.

Is Nash around?

Well, he just called from the car.

You know, said he was going with that Belinda girl to church. What's up?

Yeah, what's up?

Oh, nothing, except he almost got me kicked out of my own neighborhood.

This Nazi traffic cop he turned me on to, he's terrorizing everybody in the

street, except for the guy I wanted to catch.

Sounds like you need a more viable solution to your problem.

Obviously.

Nice shot.

Well, why don't you build a speed bump, Joe?

Well, I'm just fresh out of hot tar and all the equipment it would take, Nick.

Ah, hell, we can fix that.

Easy, son.

We're right up on top there.

That's it right there. What a honey of a bum.

Don't you think it's a little high?

Listen to me, Joe.

My best friend Scotty in the Navy was a CB.

Now, he built through the swamp a 10 ,000 -foot runway quicker than you could

bagel over bread.

I still think it's a little high.

Joe, if you know anything about asphalt, You know, it settles.

So what do we do now?

Oh, we go have a cool one. We wait for it to dry.

Angel, want a beer?

Not while I'm on duty.

Easy, easy.

Wake up. Here he comes.

I hear him.

I hope it's settled.

To quote Psalm 24, who has the right to climb the mountain of Yahweh.

Let's go to her.

Oh, my God. Let me handle this.

May I see your license and registration, please?

What if I were to give you a second chance?

First, you must promise never to speed in your car.

I promise.

Next, you must promise never to drive on this street again.

Never.

I promise.

Now start the car and get out of here before I change my mind.

Thank you.

Yours? Yeah.

I found them in the FIU van.

Thanks.

Hey, man, um, what's up? Because, uh, don't tell me those are vitamins,

I know they're not vitamins.

Look, what you know and what you think you know are two different things, okay?

Now, I appreciate you picking them up, but don't jump to conclusions.

Antoine, how can I not? Easy.

Just don't.

Captain, somebody here to see you.

You and your partner, did you drop off this picture?

You work at the Enigma bar? Yeah, yeah, I've been looking for Victoria for weeks

now.

Why don't you come on over here and have a seat? Is she okay?

Yeah, she's fine.

How'd you find me?

Uh, cab company.

Dropped her off at your bar about a dozen times, I think.

Yeah, I know.

I tried the cab company. They won't tell me anything.

Well, she started coming by about three months ago, and we struck up a

friendship. She wouldn't tell me the details of her life, but I fell in love

with her anyway.

She's incredible, funny, beautiful, no weird habits.

Well, she's got one habit.

Victoria?

Victoria,

what's going on?

I'm pregnant.

That's why you never came back?

Victoria, I looked for you everywhere.

I didn't know what to do.

I lied to you. I'm so ashamed.

Oh, that is an understatement.

Miss homecoming queen, Miss perfect, holier -than -thou nun girl.

Easy, sister.

Oh, my God. You're a nun.

That's right.

What do you want me to say, Belinda?

I snuck out and I fell in love.

Yeah, I don't know what's gonna happen and I don't care even the baby's not

mine. I'll raise it as my own What do you mean the baby is yours?

That's impossible What are you talking about is impossible?

I'm infertile Now that's a miracle

Five seconds.

Ten -four.

Why don't you guys give it up first?

We got two suspects downstairs in the patrol cars chasing Blackbeard. They

him somewhere in Potrera Hill. He's probably headed straight for the loot.

Nobody's given up that location yet? Nah.

Run a game on him. Better do it pronto, then. Muy pronto.

Well, Miss Cruz.

So, Brad, I'm a sister of getting married.

I can't believe it.

It really was a miracle, huh?

Well, dumb luck.

You see, Brad is the father of that child.

Well, not if it's feral.

He's infertile, not feral.

And occasionally, people in that category can get off a good shot.

That's what you wouldn't believe.

Is this you doing a 180?

Well, maybe. I've just learned to accept things the way they are, mister.

Well, I agree with the lesson if I don't agree with you.

Here's the check for the case.

Thank you.

Sorry, I can't accept payment for a case that has plausible, miraculous

explanations.

Okay.

See you around.

I hope so, too.

Hey, Jason.

How's the shoulder?

Screw off.

That's cool.

I'd be pissed off, too, if my buddy sold me out. Nobody sold me out.

Well, yeah.

Why was there a whole busload of cops waiting for you?

Guess who got away without a scratch?

With a scratch.

He's probably digging it up right now.

Your buddy over there, Suave Bola, he's telling us where the stash is right now.

As soon as he does that, Jason, you're up the creek without a paddle.

You won't say nothing.

Really?

Sure looks like you're saying something to me.

You're a Broncos fan?

Oh, dude, you live in Philly. How can you be a Broncos fan? Why do you keep

talking to me about football?

Oh, you like football.

What kind of game are you running on me?

No game.

Yeah, he's singing like Enrique Iglesias.

Too bad, Jason, you lose.

Wait, wait.

I tell you where the loot's buried, what do I get?

Your buddy Jason, he's telling my partner Joe everything about where the

and how your crew ran.

I don't need you.

I thought we could kill some time, talk football.

What does he get the deal?

What kind of deal did he make?

Treasure Island.

Charleston's Cove. By the staircase.

A 15 feet south of the staircase, Harf. It's all in the details, man. Pick them

up. Will do.

X marks the spot.

What you got there, Roger? Hurry up. We all want to see what's inside.

What can we say, Rog?

You got a mutiny on your bounty here.

Have you seen this?

Mysterious disappearance speed bump.

Okay. Your neighbor told a Chronicle reporter that they saw a speed bump on

street at around, oh, midnight, and then it was mysteriously gone by 3 a .m.

It's a miracle, huh?

Probably the same miracle that got the tar on Nick's shoes, huh?

Yes, ma 'am. Didn't you learn anything from the Victoria gig?

Like what?

Some things are best left unexplained.

Angel! I was just thinking about you.

I know.

As a matter of fact, I was going to come looking for you. I know.

Will you stop saying that?

If I said that every time somebody said something, they'd think I could read

minds, too.

Probably not.

All right, fine. Look, I want to ask you something.

As a matter of fact, I want to ask you for a favor.

Stay around and look after Nick.

Yeah, well, yeah.

He, you know, he seems to do better when you're around. I mean, you know that.

I can't cue you farther, Nash.

That's not what I'm asking.

It's not how it works.

How what works.

All I can tell you is your father likes to fish.

That's what you're going to leave me with?

That's all you need.

Hello, son.

What you got there?

This would be a brand new saltwater rod and reel.

It's for you, Nick.

I'll be damned.

This is the exact one that I was looking at in the catalog.

I know. I noticed.

Want to go try it out?

You want to go fishing now?

You mean now?

Sure, why not?

Son, you know what time it is.

Does it really matter, Dad?

I'll go get the gear.
