Original subtitles

Four. Five.

Six. Seven.

Get back here, Sloan!

Is he here? No.

It's all over, Dad.

You all right? I'm fine, and I'm very pleased to see you.

Where the hell's Karn?

He jumped off about three miles back.

Jenkins, he's gone.

Get the men on the track.

We're going to walk the rails all the way back to L .A. if we have to.

All right.

Let's start at the beginning.

A train slowed down and he jumped off. He's hurt. How hurt, damn it?

Knock it off, Delaney.

He's been through enough for one day. The day's not done yet.

I said back off.

You're through with him now.

You hear me?

You just earned yourself a departmental hearing, hot shot.

Send me an invitation.

No wonder you never get a promotion.

Don't you start with me. Sorry.

Oh, man.

I knew I was going to miss it all.

I had to hitch a ride back to town in this truck hauling bell peppers out of

Bakersfield. Then I get back, there's a ticket on my windshield.

Can you believe... You know, enough about that. How's George?

You mean, where's George?

He escaped again, Jesse.

Come on.

Listen. Can you drive me back home?

Yeah, no problem.

Okay. You gonna be all right? Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks. See you later. Hope you're

not in trouble.

You can't wait to get back home.

Uh, miss, have you ever been to Oxnard?

Oxnard?

See, we were one, two, three.

That's where we were.

Pleasant trip?

Not bad.

There were a couple of tricky moments crawling along the side of the car with

this arm.

Did you, uh... Did you, uh... Is he gonna hit me again? No, no, Jesse's a

healer, not a fighter.

Let's go.

Okay?

What are we going to do with him?

We're going to kidnap him.

Only you could do this, Mark. What?

Only you could get grabbed out of a hospital at gunpoint and then return to

guy as a new best friend.

We just have to get to know each other a little better, that's all.

That's why you came here for your little get -together?

He would have died out there, believe me.

Besides, you know, with George missing, whoever killed his wife is very worried

right now.

Worried enough to make a bad move?

You have a devious mind, Amanda.

Not looking too bad here, George.

Yeah, well, you're in a good clinic here.

Well, it's just temporary.

George, the fastest way to get you out of all this is to start looking for your

wife's killer.

Look in that journal. Ah, I'm telling you, Marjorie wrote everything down.

She got killed because she found something dangerous out about our club.

The club?

You know something, Jesse?

You're getting a little puffy around the middle. I bet your cholesterol's going

through the roof, isn't it?

So you think I should check out some health facilities, huh? That's exactly

I was thinking.

All right.

What about this guy Bridger?

He's a greedy leech.

He makes Margie's first three videos.

And then when the sales take off, he hires a high -run attorney and files

for 50 % of all rights. He claimed the whole thing was his idea.

Where does the lawsuit stand now? I have no idea.

Well, I can't let Jesse have all the fun.

What's Bridger's first name?

King.

Very unassuming.

Okay, that's two good starting points right there.

Now, I want to look at the trial transcripts, and I want to look at the

files. Steve can help me with that.

But, Mark, are you going to tell Steve about it? Well, eventually, yeah.

Hey, how eventually? Because I think that's him coming up the stairs.

Amanda, get George in the laundry room.

He's asleep.

Dad?

Yeah? In here.

Hi. Hi.

Hey, Jesse, what happened to you?

Oh, just a few cuts and bruises from jumping off the train.

Where's Amanda? I saw her car outside.

There's something in my throat.

Any word on George Karn?

Nothing. They did a five -mile grid, but he slipped.

How's Delaney taking it?

How do you think?

You know, Steve, I spent the better part of a day glued to George Karn.

He didn't do it. He didn't kill his wife.

Uh -oh.

Why not?

Because the minute he escaped, he went straight to the one thing that he

would prove his innocence.

This journal and what it was in it.

I don't think he did it, and I'm going to prove it.

Well, I learned a long time ago that nothing I can say is going to change

mind, so I'm going to bed.

Yeah, why don't we call it a day?

Go sleep well.

Oh, and if you want to help George Carlin, you better step on it. He's

three states away by now.

We're like three rooms.

Yes, Chrissy, what is it?

There's someone here to see you, Mr. Bridger.

A young lady.

Oh, yeah?

How's her face?

Beautiful. She, uh, positively glows.

Oh, no kidding. I like that.

Stu and I will be right out.

And that is how you get to see Mr. Bridger.

Is he always like this? Mm -hmm. And can he jerk with him? He'll hit on anything

moving. Oh, wait till he gets a load of me.

How do you do? I'm King Bridger, and this is my lawyer, Stu Havlick, and you

are? Amanda Livingston.

Yes, well, let's get right to it.

I have a great idea for a maternity video.

Not really my line.

The script's all written? Yeah.

Well, $300 ,000 from investors, and I have to tell you they were thrilled to

know that I was coming to talk to you.

Because let's face it, you are the king of self -help videos. Oh, you are

absolutely right.

However, there is one concern.

What concern?

Yes, we understand that you ended up suing Margie Carr.

I don't like talking about the dead, but Margie was an ungrateful little witch,

okay? She was nobody when she came to me. Those videos?

That was pure Bridger, the makeup, the costumes, the sets, even the exercises,

that whole leg kick thing, that was mine. You see, Mrs. Livingston, there

unfortunately no formal contract, which led to a great deal of confusion about

rights and royalties. I see.

So, would the lawsuit be ongoing?

Oh, absolutely.

Do you expect to win?

Yeah. Well, maybe Margie Karn's death helped.

I mean, with the president of Karn Enterprises.

Oh, Mr. Bridger's case might be less vigorously contested. That's correct.

Listen, I've got to run. Set up an appointment here with Havoc. He'll show

the standard contract.

Chrissy, where's my camera bag?

It's right over there.

Thank you.

Ow! My damn filter is killing me. I can hardly sleep at night.

Free weights, pool and spa on the roof.

I noticed you guys have a lot of security cameras around here. Oh, hold

from the people who built the place.

I was a little paranoid.

Poor Margie Karn, right?

Considering what happened, I guess she had a right to be paranoid.

Yeah, poor Margie.

And I was her manager, too.

Really? Hey, I noticed that you guys decided to keep the name Karn Power

even after her death.

Well, the new owners thought they should stay with the name recognition.

All that'll change soon.

Hi, Wendy Sawyer.

Hi, Jesse Travis.

What's going to change soon?

People are going to forget that Margie Karn ever existed.

I'm working with King Bridger. Got a video coming out myself.

Really? Well, I look forward to seeing it. You won't be disappointed.

You a new member?

Yeah. No.

I mean, well, I haven't decided.

Good. Cute guy like you. I love it.

Is everything ready for the video shoot tomorrow?

Two o 'clock.

All right.

Come on by if you want a better look.

See ya.

Not one bit shy, is she?

No. No, she's not shy.

Don't let the sex kitten stuff fool you. There's Dracula under all that mascara.

Hey, is she one of the new owners?

No. Wendy just acts like she owns everything.

Actually, she's one of our trainers.

But her agenda is to be a lot more.

She hovered around the edges of Margie's career, just waiting for her chance at

stardom. You could practically hear her drooling.

Really?

So did George Karn sell his shares in the club, too?

Yeah. Had to.

For legal fees, I hear.

Who owns it now?

Some conglomerate.

Don't worry about who owns it. It's the best gym in town. Come on. I'll show you

the roof.

George?

I got some nice thick steaks.

I can do them rare. I can do them well done. Anything in between is a little

shaky.

I fell.

Ah, my breathing's not so good.

George, you are burning up.

Well, you know something? All things considered, you're in pretty decent

X -rays look good. Lungs healing.

Arms stable. Got those ribs taped.

The fastest physical I ever had. Best one I ever gave, too.

Now all we've got to do for the next few hours is get you quiet.

Why are you running down the hall?

I wasn't running. I was walking briskly.

You know what's happening, don't you?

What's happening? No. What?

You don't know?

Listen to this.

I was told that Mr.

Klosterman was in radiology, but he wasn't.

Then I was told that Mr. Binder was in the lab. He wasn't.

Then apparently Mr.

Rittenhouse was supposed to report to physical therapy. And he didn't.

No. So what's happening?

They don't exist.

I checked with admissions.

We don't have a Klosterman, Binder, and Rittenhouse.

It's that woman.

What woman?

Young man, I believe we are under a spell.

Voodooism is hanging over this hospital like a black curtain, and I'm the

curtain rod.

But that's another story.

Are you all right?

Of course not. Why do I look all right?

Is there anything I could do for you?

Yes. Yes.

But this is in the strictest of confidence.

Not a word.

To no one. Never.

I want you to be my eyes and my ears.

Check out these phantom patients.

Together we can solve this and lift this curtain of doom.

Right. I'll do what I can.

Definitely the curtain rod.

Norman's on a witch hunt. He's looking up all those aliases he made up for Mr.

Karn. I'm done with the exams. I just need a room for him.

Boy, I swear, just when you think that guy can't get any weirder, he's now

convinced that some voodoo woman has put a jinx or a curse on the hospital.

Of course.

That's what we'll put. George, it's absolutely Norman -proof.

Mark, I'd like you to meet someone.

Certainly.

Nice. Dr.

Mark Sloan. Ah, your friend.

How do you do?

She's crazy about you.

Well, feeling is mutual.

You're searching for something.

Yes. Murderer.

Well, you must look up, not down.

I'm sorry. I don't quite understand.

Well, often I don't either.

Just something I feel.

That's great. Hey, Doc, can I tell you what I found out today? Oh, me too.

Excuse me.

I'm first.

Okay, this King Bridger is a real character.

Slice of heaven.

A serious ego problem, not to mention a libido problem, too, I gather.

Anyway, he's still suing. He expects to win, and his attorney as much as admits

that Margie's death might help the case. Hey, let me check him out some more.

He's shooting a video for someone who is, and I quote, going to make people

forget that Margie Card ever existed.

The name is Wendy Sawyer, and I heard that she cannot wait to jump into

Fitness queen void created by Margie's death.

Understudy kills star.

Could happen.

How do you expect to get close to a video shoot? Wendy said I was cute.

Well, then that's a done deal.

It's a good start, and then I sneak in.

Hey, by the way, they sold Karn's place.

New owners, but the same managers.

Well, that was quick. Who bought it? I don't know, some group or something.

Public record.

I could get those at the courthouse. They've got company.

Lieutenant!

You hear we didn't find George Karn? I did.

You sure he jumped off that train, doctor?

Well, I don't know where else would he be. Well, that's what I was asking

myself. Also, I was asking myself why a man matching your description and a

young blonde guy were seen at a railroad sighting in Ventura County.

Well, I have no idea.

You're nosing around, doctor.

Nosing around?

You got your scout troop out asking questions.

Well, let me ask you one last question. Are you familiar with obstructing

justice, harboring a fugitive?

Those are felonies. That they are.

And if I find out you're involved in either one, we're going to have

quite a dance.

Can you hide him for a few more hours?

Yeah. Then what?

Well, then George takes another trip.

Wendy, what is this?

The elephant march? I mean, can't you even count?

And while I'm at it, who is the idiot in blue?

Everybody, take a break.

And Wendy, get over here.

Dr. Livingston, I presume.

You've probably heard that one before.

Once or twice.

So you've decided to use Mr.

Bridger, hmm?

Actually, I'm not sure that's going to work out.

Second thoughts on your video?

I have a second thought about a number of things.

I found out that your firm did the incorporation work for Sunlight

and they bought Carnes Power Health, I believe.

They did. I know it well.

Mr. Bridger is currently involved in litigation against the Karn estate.

I know. I find it terribly confusing because your firm is representing

Enterprises and is also suing the company that Sunlight bought.

Sounds like a tangled web, doesn't it? Sounds like conflict of interest.

No, no, not at all. The case that I'm overseeing for Mr.

Bridger is only targeted at the late Ms. Karn's video assets.

The sale of her other assets are being handled by a junior partner here. It's a

completely separate matter.

Does that explain that?

No, not quite.

Who is Sunlight Enterprises?

It's a law firm -client relationship, you know. Just like the doctor -patient

relationship, I presume.

Well, let's see. I could always petition the Secretary of State. It is... Public

record after all.

Yes, ma 'am? Would you have Mr. Mathis bring in the carn file, please?

Right away.

Seeing you at the postage.

Well, you certainly are thorough when you begin a business venture, huh?

Actually, I'm looking for a murderer.

One more. Come on.

That's it.

Good. Okay, one more.

That's it.

Great. Thanks. Give it to me.

That was good, Chuck.

At home, work on those squats and leg lifts.

Excuse me.

Are you Didi Harris?

Yeah. Hi. Can I help you? I'm Dr. Mark Sloan. I could use a doctor after that

session.

Six sets of dumbbells.

Speed jumping, six three -minute rounds, and then pull -ups.

Well, you sure look great after doing all that.

Your hair's still neat.

Fitness secret.

It's not real.

Oh, I see.

You know, I'm kind of surprised you still conduct these sessions.

Personally, I mean, you own the place and everything.

What are you after, Doctor?

Matter of fact, I'm with the police department. I just need some

Seems like you have quite a bit already.

You know, I own this place.

At least part of it.

But you call yourself the manager, don't you? Mm -hmm. Yeah, I'm an owner

-manager, and I do both jobs better than the last group.

Oh, George and Margie Karn?

Margie, mostly.

As far as I'm concerned, George was dead wood.

When Margie died, I wanted to keep the club going, so I found a few investors

and bought it.

The place is doing twice the business that used to.

I gather you're doing well.

Oh, I noticed the big Mercedes in your spot when I drove in.

You don't miss much, do you, Doctor?

Hi, Didi.

Checking the layout for the shoot tomorrow.

Is that Wendy Sawyer?

The one and only.

She work here?

I let Wendy use the facility as a home base.

A place like this needs a face, a personality.

So I let her have the limelight. She can chat up the customers, the press.

Me, I'm just an old weightlifter trying to turn a buck.

Oh, I've got a three o 'clock. Any more questions, doctor?

No, do you mind if I look around?

Oh, have a ball.

Let me know what that keen eye of yours picked up.

She would have weighed 125 pounds.

We've been struggling to.

It's funny, I never really considered a weight rack to be particularly scary

before. Well, thank God you're all right, Mark.

Theory's right.

Oh, somebody is very nervous.

When exactly are you going to tell Steve about this?

Uh, later.

Oh, that's exact.

Hey, but you know what? It doesn't matter, because this thing is over.

Bridger's got the hair trigger, and he's also got the motive.

Margie Carton's video sold over 4 million units last year at $29 .95 a

so... You know, you do the math.

Is somebody here?

See? It's me.

And I brought a friend.

Say hello to my buddy, Mr. Search Warren.

Guess what we found out in your trash can.

Look familiar?

Maybe you better look again.

George Karnes' shirt.

Where is he, Sloan?

I have no idea.

Jenkins, cuff this man.

Sir. All right, look, you can't... No,

you can't.

Mark, don't worry. We will get you out of this.

Better stop by the bank. Bail is going to be steep on this one.

Mark Sloan, you are under arrest for aiding and abetting a fugitive from

justice. Jacob's reading his rights.

You have the right to remain silent. To give up this right to remain silent.

What

size are

those shoes?

Got a cigarette?

No. I'm a doctor.

You're better off without one, you'll know that.

You know, I could get you one of those nicotine patches.

Did I ask for a patch? No, just a little free medical if I should have it.

Like that mark there on your arm, for instance. That's probably tinea corpus.

What's that supposed to mean?

A ringworm.

Well, I could, for instance, get you some of that anti -fungal cream.

Fungal? Bail time!

Oh, there he goes.

Jesse, that's good.

Cow.

Look, here's your stuff.

Thanks. I had Steve do a little run on Mr. Bridger.

Come up dirty? Oh, like a coal miner's pants. Hit through your temper problems

and get the three assault charges all on women.

And this is the guy who hated Marjorie Karn for cutting him out of a fortune.

And the guy who hung around her health club. Still does.

Want to meet him? Oh, absolutely.

I can't believe Delaney's throwing you in this pit.

Well, I did have George's shirt.

Although technically you didn't have George.

No. Uh, we need to talk.

How big is your apartment?

This is ridiculous. I am getting a flare off Wendy's face. What did you use for

makeup? Mylar?

All right, take a break.

Ow. Ow.

My shoulder.

Excuse me, may I see you for a moment? Oh, what now?

I'm a doctor. I noticed you had a little pain there. I thought maybe you could

take a peek at it. Ow!

Get away from me.

How long have you had that?

A year.

A year?

Ow!

Don't. Touch me again. Sorry.

We should have brought Steve.

Why? Why? Because of Bridger. He's the murderer.

He didn't push anybody off any roof.

Unless he had a winch.

He's got a torn rotator cuff.

He's had it for quite a while now.

Probably has trouble picking up soap in the shower, much less lifting a 125

-pound woman over the side.

You know, Jesse, all of the witnesses at the trial were from the street, from

below.

Hey, isn't it odd with all those office buildings up there that somebody didn't

see something?

You know, maybe Amanda's priestess was right.

You want me to do something?

Yeah. Right away, sir.

What do you want me to do?

Norman. Mr. Briggs.

Norman. I'm so glad I found you. I have a couple of messages here from Jesse for

you. It's regarding the mystery patient.

That was an objective of confidence.

Well, you know Jesse.

He told you our whole conversation?

Yeah, about being your eyes and your ears. Yeah. Anyway, apparently Mr.

Klosterman and Mr. Rittenhouse were walking through Friends of Mark, but

weren't registered. And Mr. Bender was a typo at admitting. Mr. Windu and he's

in room 313.

Oh, that's it then?

Let's sit back. No, actually, I'm curious about your purse.

How are your hands?

Never better.

They still bother you, don't they?

Here, this will help.

It's just an aloe cream.

Why are you so frightened of me?

You think I practice what?

Black arts?

Never crossed my mind.

Well,

I do sometimes feel things.

Like your friend, Dr. Sloan.

He's on the right track now.

He should stay on the hunt.

I can't tell him.

And you?

Do you have some financial concerns?

No.

A tax audit.

Ah, yes.

You will win.

I will?

Plandunk.

Use the cream.

It's usually correct.

I'm writing a book. A book? How interesting.

I thought you were here about insurance.

How much collision coverage do you carry, by the way?

None, actually.

Just liability.

Not good.

Actuaries show that drivers under 30 are most in need of collision.

Well, excellent.

So, about the book you're writing?

Yeah, it's sort of a cross between In Cold Blood and Reverse LaFortune. I call

it Fit to Die, The Margie Karn Story.

Terrible tragedy.

She was way underinsured.

So, how can I help you?

Well, actually, I'm trying to talk to anybody who might have seen something

day. You're number 87.

Well, I don't have anything new, you know.

Just what I told the police.

You spoke with the police? Oh, yeah. I gave them a whole statement.

I gather I was one of the few people working here on a Saturday.

I was going over one of my accounts, Mrs.

Fenner's term life. Beautiful.

Now, there's something you should look into.

Term life.

Term life. Term life.

Excellent. Um, yeah. Would you mind reviewing that statement with me?

Nothing, really. I gather it didn't figure in their investigation.

You know, they caught the husband right at the scene.

Did you see Mr. Karn? No, actually, I saw someone else leave before Karn got

there and, you know.

Can you describe him?

Yes, I can. But just a glance and from this angle. I was looking straight down.

What I saw was the haircut.

The haircut?

Mm -hmm. Short and blonde.

Like mine? Oh, no, no, no. Really blonde.

Light, light blonde.

Light, light blonde. Mm -hmm. Wow.

Thank you very much, Mr. Alfredson. You have a beautiful smile. You know, I

could put you in a whale of a dental program.

You put him where?

Dad, I'm a police lieutenant. You can't hide a convicted felon at my house. I

know that. That's why I took him to Jesse's. Have you considered the

consequences of this?

Uh, public disgrace, loss of my medical license, jail. Yeah, yeah, those are the

ones.

Steve, have you ever believed in somebody so much or something so much

you'd do anything to help them? You walk out on the ledge.

Yeah, all I'm saying is when you're out on that ledge, it can be a long fall.

You know, the trick is to look up, not down.

What does that mean?

It was something I just heard recently.

Hey, come on in. Hi.

Uh, Lieutenant, thank you for coming. Mr. Curran, I am not even here, okay?

Jesse? So how do you like my place, huh?

A lot of love here. A lot of love.

Well, I was going to take down some of this stuff, but I, uh... You didn't have

the heart?

I didn't have the time.

Who lived here before, anyway?

Mary Hart, I think.

Okay, let's see what Jesse found out. She was Karen Valentine.

Uh, Jesse and I went through the transcripts, but we didn't come up with

anything. Yeah, nothing.

Not a single word from anybody about a person with short, very blonde hair.

And that description doesn't match anybody that we're looking for.

Unless they're wearing a tupe.

George, you remember that picture I asked you about at Margie's studio?

Yeah, it was taken a couple of years ago.

Right.

That's it.

Jesse, I could kiss you.

Why? Because you just found Margie Carnes' killer, that's why.

Come on, Steve, let's go.

What are you doing here?

Shouldn't you be out taking care of this? And next time, knock before you

into my house.

A -M -C -D -O -O -L. Where have I seen those things before?

Trouble just follows you around, Ed Sloan.

Yeah, both of you.

You can take a hike.

This is a homicide, Delaney.

My area. My case.

You can call downtown if you want to.

Delaney, how did you get on this?

My father and I found the body. Ann called it in.

She's officially listed as a part of the Karn case.

She should be. She murdered Margie Karn.

Really?

She also shoot herself?

Where's the gun?

My bet is George Carlin did this.

You're tampering with evidence, Doctor. You're just born nosy. Leave her things

alone.

What do we got?

Single shot.

No shell.

Looks like she put up a struggle before she got killed.

Steve, why don't we leave these gentlemen to finish their job?

Let him kick me off a crime scene?

No way.

First intelligent thing your father ever said and you're ignoring it?

Hey, Lieutenant.

Those news guys want a statement.

Sound away.

Margie's Video Studio. That's where I've seen these tapes before. And the

writing's the same.

Very neatly printed.

Can't figure out why would Dee Dee have Margie's tapes?

Two women who've done soaps.

I am too.

You're a soap junkie?

I dabble a little bit.

Oh, guess who?

An escaped felon stood at large. We're looking into that possibility.

So do you think George Karn killed Miss Harris?

It's possible.

Anything further would be speculation.

Now, what Margie's got here are names. Nick and Sharon, then 324 -420.

They've got to be clients.

No, no. Not client characters.

Nick and Sharon are stars in The Young and the Restless.

But the numbers, I don't... Payday counters.

Oh, George, you were right all along.

It was in the journal.

What do you got in there, Y &R? Go to 324.

Okay, now, this Sharon and Nick stuff is really good.

You see, Nick loves Sharon. He wants to marry Sharon, except Sharon was hooked

up with this real low -life Matt.

Now, Matt's doing all he can to keep those two apart.

In fact, recently, Matt got shot, and he's telling everyone Nick did it. Nick

did not do what everyone thinks Nick did it. He may have to go to jail. Okay,

320, play from now. She'll want to be with me. This has nothing to do with

Is that Sharon?

Yeah, isn't she pretty?

She's a poor girl. She has a lot of problems.

Wrong side of the track.

It's a really good scene. I want to see this.

You say you're worried about going back to jail.

You're going to run off?

Run away forever and you won't let me go with you? Oh, this is it. 324, this is

it.

Whoa.

Oh, God.

It's a porno flick.

Uh, worse, worse. I think that's real.

Hey, man, you shouldn't be watching that. Get out of the way. Yes, do.

Stop that.

I mean, freeze it.

Oh, holy cow, that's Dee Dee.

That guy.

Oh, my God.

It's Havlik, Bridger's lawyer.

But where are they? Looks like they're in a doctor's office.

That's a massage table.

Our club.

The security cameras.

Amanda, I think maybe you should go see Mr. Havlik again.

Oh, I think I've seen enough of Mr.

Havlik this evening already.

Mr. Havlock, may I have a minute of your time, please? I'm sorry. It'll only

take a second. I'm a bit tied up right now.

If you don't mind, we can talk here. If you don't mind your friend knowing about

you and your dead sex partner.

He's a joker.

Hey, could you just give us five minutes?

Thanks.

Are you crazy?

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about tapes that I saw of you and Dee Dee Harris in the health

massage room.

Gave no meaning to personal training.

There are tapes?

Mm -hmm.

VHS.

Extended play.

Where in God's name did you get them?

Margie Karn's video studio.

Yeah, I guess she recorded them off of her security cameras.

Oh, God, I told Dee Dee it wasn't safe.

So, how much is this going to cost us, huh?

Huh? Oh, please, don't play coy, Dr. Livingston. If you've seen tapes, you

very well who's on them. Did you recognize a few of the faces, huh?

Yeah, I sure did.

Yeah, congressmen, movie stars, sports figures, a lot of very high -profile

people stand to be ruined by what you've got. You'll make a fortune in

blackmail. I guess that's why Dee Dee kept them.

No, no, I'm here purely about her murder.

Her...

Her murder?

Mm -hmm. Oh, my God, woman, no, no.

I didn't kill her.

No, I guess not, if this was the first you knew about the tapes.

Oh, and there were so many others on them.

Excuse me, I have to talk to Mark.

Come on in.

Where's the tape?

Gone.

Gone? What, you... Gone? The whole box.

They're not at D .D. Harris' house, and they're not in the evidence lockup.

Delaney's the only one who could have taken them.

So now we know who killed D .D., how are we going to prove it?

I went back to the news footage last night, Delaney's press conference.

Got some blow -ups.

This was taken at the scene of D .D.'s death.

What does this prove?

Well, I didn't get it either, but then it hit me.

Everything we need to know is right here.

Closing the book on Karn.

Back burner.

Perp's on the run, remember?

Uh -huh.

What about D .D. Harris' murder?

That going on the back burner, too?

Hard to do anything with all the evidence that's missing.

Yeah.

Something missing?

Lots of videotapes.

Proof of the sex ring that D .D. Harris was running out of Margie Karn's gym.

Disappeared right after we left her apartment.

Seems like a lot of things have fallen through the cracks lately.

We got a witness in one of the high -rights who's overlooking the health

Seems his statement didn't make it into the investigation file either.

That's two of your cases.

I'd go real careful here if I were you, Sloan.

If you were me, Delaney, D .D. Harris would be in jail for Markey's murder,

dead.

You caught George on that roof red -handed, didn't you?

But you were too good of a cop to just buy it and go home, so you kept looking.

Witnesses in the high -rise took you to Dee Dee. So what happened?

She confessed?

Tell you she killed Margie to cover up her hookers?

Keep her in your mouth.

Okay, I will. You broke Dee Dee, found out about the kind of dough she was

making from her powerful client, and decided to let the poor bastard you

arrested take the fall.

And then you became Dee Dee's new partner.

Did what, a 60 -40 split, maybe?

But even that wasn't good enough.

It wasn't Delaney.

You got nothing but mouth, Sloan.

Nothing.

And if things are missing, they're going to stay missing.

Forever.

Meanwhile, the story gets around to the bunch of bull from a bitter cup who got

busted for interfering with the capture of a felon on that train.

See you at the IA hearing.

Can't wait.

Sloan here.

This old man's on the phone looking for him. Something about D .D. Harris.

I'll take it.

Hello, Dr. Sloan.

This is Officer DeMarco. What can I do for you?

Steve's not here at the moment, but I can take a message for him.

Okay, sure. I'll have him come over.

Video studio.

1318.

Waterfoot Street.

Got it?

No problem.

Steve?

Good evening, Doctor.

I was waiting for my son.

Couldn't make it.

I'll take whatever you've got for me. Hey!

What do we got here, Doc?

What are you up to?

You get it, don't you?

You're a clever man, Doc.

No lapel pin when you arrive on the scene, but you're wearing it before you

leave Where was it?

on the floor Lost in the shag carpet near the closet Then you shot her shame

he had a good thing going It was you she was afraid of She started telling me I

was going out with her Easiest thing was to pop her and pin another killing on

corn Now you you're a different problem

Take a ride, Doc.

Funny, Doc, this is how it all started for you in the first place.

You try anything funny, I'll kill you right here.

Freeze!

Take the gun off my father or I'll take your head off your shoulders.

You all right?

I am out of the professional hostage business as of now.

Thank you.

Hi, guys. Hi.

Hey. Well, it looks like Jesse's roommate is moving out, Dad. I had to

and say thanks.

Doc, you saved my life in more ways than one.

Both of you did. Well, it was a life worth saving, George.

You're not thinking about leaving with my sweater, are you?

The retrial's all set. Starts next week. Good. How about the kidnapping charges?

Rumor has it the prosecution has an uncooperative hostage.

I simply felt like taking a ride with my friend George that day, that's all.

See you later.

See you. Take care, George.

All right, Marguerite.

You take care, all right, sweetie?

And you, Maya.

I hope to see you again someday.

I'd like that.

I may be around the hospital, actually.

Any patient?

No. Sort of a job.

Hi. Hi.

Busy for lunch?

No. Good. I've got some stock I'd like you to look over.

Oh, your treat?

See? The woman knows everything.

I cannot wait for the goat dance Friday night.

Norman's rash gone?

Yeah, he used some of that cream and disappeared.

Oh, wow.

Well, maybe she can invent a cream where the rash stays, yet Norman... Don't do

that. Oh.
