- That's Jennifer, down there.

- Gonna wrap tonight, Stace.

Trail's getting cold, I can feel it.

- She's scared, I can feel that.

- Tell her that's the least of her worries if she's

involved in a homicide.

- I have been leaning on her. - Lean harder.

- Jim, we don't even know for sure if she knows anything

about the murder. - If she's not

involved, she can't be hurt.

If she's an innocent bystander, you'll be doing her

the biggest favor of her life.

- OK.

Jennifer, you were identified as being with

the murder victim in this club and later at his hotel

on the night he was killed.

- I told you.

I met Charlie Janelle for the first time in my life

that night.

I was home alone when he was shot.

In bed, asleep, you've got to believe me.

- I do.

But what you're not telling me is how you met him.

Who introduced you?

- I'm not involved in a murder.

- You're still avoiding the question.

How did you meet him?

- It was a favor.

- What do you mean, a favor?

- Stacy, look, it's a long story, and I've got

an appointment.

Why don't I come back about midnight,

and I'll tell you what I can then?

I promise. - OK.

But I'm gonna hold you to that promise.

The whole story, Jennifer, I want it.

♪ Yeah, he looked so fine,

♪ Yes, I'm gonna make him mine

♪ And when he walks me home

♪ Da do ron-ron-ron, da do ron-ron

♪ Yeah, he looked so fine,

- I said I'd meet you outside.

- You were late.

Mr. Bender doesn't like to keep those special

clients of his waiting.

- Does he always follow you around?

- Let's go.

(rock music)

- Did she spill it? - Nope.

- Then why'd you let her go?

- She said she'd be back, and I trust her.

- Jennifer.

Peter Weston called, he told me what had happened.

He was very worried and sorry.

Very sorry.

- Don't try to sell me that.

Michelle told me about this guy from New York and his belt.

You knew he was like that when you set the date,

didn't you?

- Jennifer, it's over now, forget it.

I'll get you the best doctors.

I'll make you the hottest model in town.

- Send me back to another sick buyer.

Or another Charlie Jinelle.

- I told you, I had nothing to do with Jinelle's murder.

- And I wanted to believe you.

- Peter said you threatened to go to the police.

And now you doubt my word about Jinelle?

(ominous music)

Jenny, you could ruin everything I've worked for.

(intense music)

- [Woman] Four Adam 34, Adam 30 see the security guard

regarding a dead body discovered at Industry and Fourth.

Handle code three.

- We're Adam 30, that's a roger.

(sirens blaring)

- I found her just lying here.

- [Vince] Hooker, I think I know this girl.

- Stacy was pumping her for information on the

Jinelle killing.

- OK, so she didn't show like she promised.

- Yeah, I noticed.

We spent the night spinning our wheels,

when we could have used the time to track

some other leads. - Four X 16.

Meet four Adam 30 at the Harvard Pier,

Industry and Fourth, a possible 187 victim

connected to your investigation.

- 16, roger.

(sirens blaring)

- Jennifer.

God.

- I forgot to put us code six.

- Looks like someone worked her over before she was shot.

- Jim was right.

I should never have let her go.

- My point is we could have brought her in.

- OK, but what would we have gotten out of it?

- At least a set of prints to verify her name.

- Her name was Jennifer Carson.

She came from Idaho to be a model,

worked in the garment district at Glitter Fashions

and lived with her roommate.

I did find out something about her.

- But is any of it the truth?

- Name and Idaho part is.

I just talked to her parents, they're taking it

real hard. - Did they give you

her address or her roommate's name?

- Parents haven't talked to her since she left for here.

Anything from the lab?

- Ballistics ties the bullet that killed her to the same

gun that killed Charlie Jinelle.

How's that grab you? - Any more background

information on Jinelle? - Nothing.

But here's the real zinger.

Lab pulled out some old ballistic tests because the pattern

looked familiar.

Remember the old Willie Rupert case about two years ago?

Turns out it's the same gun Willie used to blow away

his crazy neighbor.

A nine millimeter H and KP seven.

We had it in custody and the state auctioned it off

after Willie's trial.

- Jim, why don't you and Stacy track that gun down?

- We're staying with the case?

- Detectives asked you to follow up on Jennifer.

I argued we should see the whole thing through.

- After last night, I appreciate the shot, Hooker.

- Last night had nothing to do with it.

You made a judgment.

You were asked to gain the lady's confidence,

and you did. - And now she's dead.

- All right.

Dig in.

We'll compare notes later.

You and I are gonna hit Glitter Fashions.

(upbeat music)

They're all yours.

- My kind of suspects.

- Ivan Bender.

- Are you the owner? - That's correct.

What can I do for you?

- We're investigating a homicide.

The victim was shot.

She may have worked with you.

- Good God.

It's Jennifer Carson.

- Then she did work for you.

- Yes, but I can't fathom how it could have happened.

Do you know who did it?

- Not yet.

I need to know everything you can tell me about her,

Mr. Bender. - I don't know how

I can help you.

Models tend to be transient.

Hoping to be the next Christie Brinkley until they

find out how hard the work is.

Let me see what I can dig up for you.

(chattering)

Like I said, there's not much to go on, but you're

quite welcome to keep it.

Is there anything else, officer?

- No.

- Come on.

Back to work.

Come on, girl.

- The photo above Tanfers, the girls say her name's

Nicole Gardner, Jennifer's roommate.

She has a modeling job at Bremington Park this morning.

- Well, let's give her another job.

Answering some questions.

- I know about that cop Hooker.

Once he catches a scent, he never lets go.

- He's not gonna smell anything.

With Jinelle out of the way, Jennifer was my only threat.

- You keep sending expensive favors to buyers

like Peter Weston, problems are gonna keep happening.

Even without Jinelle.

- So, you and your friend Palansky make sure

those problems continue to be solved.

That's what I pay you for.

(snapping)

- Hey, Charlie, can we take a break?

- Excuse me.

You mind if I ask you a few questions about a model

you might have photographed?

Her name's Jennifer Carson.

- I can't believe this.

I mean, Jennifer, dead, killed like this.

- What can you tell me about her?

- She was a freelance model.

Started sharing an apartment with me a few weeks ago.

We weren't that close, just business acquaintances.

That's all there is to tell.

- I don't think so.

I ran a make on you before I got down here, Nicole.

It said prostitution.

Now it's possible from the marks on Jennifer Carson's

body, she was into the same thing when she was killed.

So I'm asking you, who pushed Jennifer?

The pimp?

Did she find her own tricks?

- You're asking the wrong lady, Sergeant.

That arrest record you found was a one time mistake.

Look around you.

Johnny's one of this town's leading photographers,

not some lousy trick.

So if you don't mind, I make 200 an hour standing

in front of that camera, so you are costing me money.

- I'll try to remember that.

But it's hard.

All I keep seeing is some young girl who came here

from a small town in Idaho six months ago.

She arrived with stars in her eyes and she left

with a bullet in her chest.

If you hear who Jennifer might have been sent to

last night or any other time, I'm interested.

(dramatic music)

They shared rooms, worked out of the same modeling agency

and both possibly connected to some kind of prostitution.

I think Nicole Gardner's our strongest link to

finding out who killed Jennifer Carson.

- Then let me work her. - What makes you think

you can get anything more out of her than you did

Jennifer Carson? - All I want to do

is try, and going under is the one way I know how.

- Nicole might open up to another model.

All right.

Hit their haunts, the garment district.

Start working your way in.

But carefully.

- You got it.

- The FBI return on our first victim, Charlie Jinelle,

says he's from Newark.

A record of embezzlement, extortion, and arson.

Send a teletype.

Get a who's who.

- I tracked the murder weapon.

CS Bowman, only he's a she.

She's the one who bought the gun at auction,

to protect herself from her ex.

Only he stole it from her.

Two time loser.

Deke Bowman.

We had his probation officer track him.

- Speaking of which, that probation officer hit the

jackpot, Bowman's down at his favorite watering hole

right now. - You got an address?

Let's shake some answers loose before Stacy gets too

deep into the firing zone.

(tense music)

- Hi. - Hi.

- You took your time.

Romaine, no dressing. - Thank you.

- Hi. - Hi.

- You're getting to be a regular fixture around here.

- This is where you're supposed to get noticed, isn't it?

- As good as any other place in the garment district,

I suppose.

Can I see your portfolio? - Sure.

Maybe you can give me some tips.

- Sit down.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Nice.

These aren't bad.

Get these to the right places, you'd work.

Camera loves you.

- There's too many head shots.

You should try to get more of a variety.

- Don't I wish.

I can't afford new pictures.

Can't even make this month's rent.

- We know of an opening.

Nicole, she's about the same type as Jennifer.

- Well, Andre does need someone to fill in for

Wednesday shot. - Listen, I'm desperate.

What do you say?

- 10 to one, that's our cowboy.

Deke Bowman.

(sirens blaring, dramatic music)

- All right, out of there.

Come on.

Hands behind your neck.

- Hooker, there's a ton of grass in here.

- No reason to jack me up like this, man.

- I can think of one great reason.

Two people murdered with your gun.

(saxophone music)

- What do you think? - Very nice.

I'm glad you found her, Nicole.

We've invited an exclusive group of buyers

for the fashion show tomorrow.

I want you to make them hungry for our merchandise,

Stacy, all of it.

- I appreciate the chance, Mr. Bender.

I'm really strapped for money.

Almost desperate, in fact.

- Your number one buyer, Peter Weston out back.

I think he's nervous about what happened to the lady

he beat up.

- I wanted to be sure that Jennifer's all right.

She seemed very upset when she left me.

I guess I got a little rough, and I haven't seen her

around at any of the garment shops.

- After we talked, she decided to go back to Idaho.

She just needed a change.

- I'm not a sadist, Andre.

I just sometimes I get carried away.

- We all do, Peter.

Everything's just fine.

You just concentrate on large orders of my merchandise

at the show tomorrow, and I'm sure the other models

you come to admire won't be as easily as scared as Jennifer.

- Then you do know other girls who won't--

- We have a beautiful new blonde I'm putting into

the Ming outfit.

- All right, thank you.

I'll call you back.

- Those Jersey feds move in slow motion.

Two days I've been waiting for an associate's list

on Charlie Jinelle. - They have their

case load, too, what are you gonna do about it?

- Right.

Yeah, I know, I know.

- How's Stacy?

- She's connected to Nicole, and picked up at least

one modeling job at Glitter Fashions.

- Well, that's great.

Let's hope she scores big.

- Let's hope she can handle what she's getting into.

I worry.

- Sure doesn't show lately.

- Hey, listen, in my opinion, she made a bad judgment call

that night with Jennifer, you want me to give her

an accommodation for that? - How about the benefit

of the doubt?

Jim, what is bugging you?

You've been on the edge ever since

Jennifer Carson was killed.

- Arraigned with $100,000 bail?

Set behind a couple of kilos of grass?

- Guess I convinced the judge.

Maybe I can reconvince him if I knew where that

P seven nine millimeter revolver is.

Or we can go back to the lockup.

- Look, what do you want from me?

I sold it, OK?

- Before or after Jennifer Carson was killed?

- Hey, man, I'm just a five and dime guy.

I'm not a vulture.

See, I don't dig dead bodies.

Especially mine.

- OK. - Besides.

The guy'll kill me if I snitch.

- Take him to the cell and lock it tight.

- OK, OK, look.

Name is Palansky.

Ziggy Palansky.

- Ziggy, sure.

You do keep company in the sewer.

Where can I find him?

- I'd have to ask around.

- I'll get you a telephone.

(upbeat saxophone music)

- A buyer saw your pictures and asked about you.

This fee will cover a couple of month's rent

and groceries for the family.

- Yours?

- Yeah, Davey's mine all right.

He stays with his grandmother during the week

when I work nights.

I don't get to spend as much time with him as I'd like,

but that'll all change as soon as I put enough cash

away to buy him some freedom.

- I hear you can really make the bucks at the night

sessions, I can use that kind of money.

Any chance you could-- - Stick to the day job, Stacy.

- You nervous, Stacy?

- A little. - Good.

A little fright pumps up the flair.

Now, when you're out there, I want you to save

a special smile for the man sitting in his usual spot

on the end of the runway.

He's my best customer.

- Andre, who was that guy you had Stacy smile at?

- Like I said, one of my best customers.

The one who's gonna make the difference for all of us

this season. - Some of the girls

are talking about a guy sitting at the end of the ramp

last year who looks just like him.

He got heavy handed with Michelle, remember?

- Michelle's an airhead, you know that as well as I do.

That's why I had to let her go at the end of the season.

- Andre, I want the truth.

Was that man Jennifer's last date?

- No, he was not.

And that is a bad route to go.

Look, I haven't even asked Stacy to talk to him,

let alone date him.

But somebody's got to make him feel at home.

- Oh, so he can make the big buy of the season,

well, no thank you.

- I'm sorry you feel that strongly.

Especially as you're supporting that boy and mother

of yours all by yourself.

Must be expensive.

- You'd drop me?

We have another problem.

This time, I want you to take care of it, personally.

- Your kid here is already a daredevil, Nicole.

- Hmm, it's an inherited trait.

His daddy had no fear.

He was a fireman, died on duty.

Unfortunately, I've got to get him back to my mother's

earlier than I expected today.

- Personally entertaining one of Bender's clients?

- It's part of the job, you get used to it.

- So Bender can sell a car load of clothes?

What happens when you end up on the short end,

like Jennifer Carson?

- Jennifer was out on her own.

- How do you know that? - I know, that's all.

- Just like I know why I was passing out special smiles

for special customers today?

- OK.

The thought did cross my mind that Bender sent her

to some kind of a creep, but he didn't.

- You asked him? - Yes.

- You believed him?

Great.

- I will know for sure this afternoon when I find out

for myself if that guy you smiled at is or isn't

that kind. - Nicole, you can't.

- I don't have a choice. - Yes, you do.

For your sake and Davey's.

What you're planning to do alone is too dangerous.

- There's no other way, don't you understand?

- Yes there is.

I'm a cop, Nicole.

- You're what?

- You've already told me enough to make me know we've

got to stop Bender and these sick guys he caters to.

I just need you to get me in the door.

Will you do that?

Will you help me?

(dramatic music)

- Four Adam 30 on Tack One to 90.

- 90, go. - Dispatch said

you had a message.

- Stacy found out that Bender set Nicole up to trick

with a garment buyer who could be Jennifer's killer.

I'm meeting them at the Carriage Inn,

you want a piece of it?

- Negative, we picked up a lead on Ziggy Palansky.

If he connects us with a buyer, we'll make it a party.

- Roger, I'll keep you informed on my end.

(saxophone music)

(engine stuttering)

- Ziggy Palansky.

(grunting)

Out. - Ow, ow.

- Number's been filed off.

Check the trunk, probably has a dozen more.

Specializes in untraceables, don't you, Ziggy?

- Stop.

- Don't you, Ziggy?

- You broke my hand.

- Only because I need you.

Otherwise I'd have blown you out the door,

does that give you any idea how bad I want to talk

to you?

- 10 of 'em.

- Well, there's only one sale of interest on the agenda

today, Ziggy.

An H and K P seven nine millimeter.

- Looks like you hit a home run, Hooker.

- Hey, I lost that one last week in a poker game

to a friend of mine.

- That's very good.

Now follow it up with a name and location.

- I'm gonna get a parole beef behind these guns.

- Maybe I'll see if your PO is understanding.

Or I might just load you up even further

with that attempted assault just now.

- Ernie Hanks.

Lives right here with me.

He's not here now though.

- Where do I find him?

Speak, Palansky, or you want to hold hands all the way

back to the station?

(grunting)

(beeping)

- [Woman] Four Adam 16 B30 on Tap Two.

- Go, 30.

- Corgon.

That's no garment buyer that Stacy and Nicole are meeting.

Name's Ernie Hanks.

Palansky fingered him as the most recent owner

of the gun that shot Jennifer Carson.

- You think Bender is using Hanks to set Nicole up?

- We can't afford to wait to find out.

(sirens blaring, dramatic music)

(knocking)

- No. - Come on in.

We're gonna talk. - Police.

(gun shooting, siren blaring, dramatic music)

(gun shooting)

Still breathing.

(siren blaring)

- Get an ambulance.

(gun shooting)

(thudding)

(saxophone music)

- How's Nicole, any change? - She's still unconscious,

but her vitals are better.

Doctors say her chances are good.

- Thank God.

- Did you get the rundown on Hanks?

- Hired muscle.

We know he was tied to Bender, but we have no proof

that Bender put him onto Nicole or Jennifer.

- Nothing that links him to the Jinelle murder?

Any sign of that P seven nine millimeter?

- The feds finally came through with at least

one tie to Bender.

Charlie Jinelle used to work for Bender

in a sleeves garment manufacturing outfit

that was torched last year.

- Suggests all kinds of motives, but still no proof.

- So, it's up to me to keep pushing.

- The first happens right here, with the medical staff.

Nicole is hanging by a thread, right?

- Hey, Stace.

When we get this wrapped, you and I have to have

a long talk. - OK.

But sometimes I don't understand where you're coming from.

I mean, I thought Hooker was tough as my training officer,

but you-- - Sometimes I don't know

where I'm coming from myself.

Just be careful, huh?

Then we'll talk.

- This is an exact reflection of our stores.

Young, exciting.

Sexy.

Give me a triple order and a full spread of sizes, hm?

- Don't pass on this one, Peter.

It looks really special on blondes.

- You know, Stacy's got a tough enough job to do

out there without you laying more pressure on her.

- Hey, Romano, why don't you just let me handle Stacy,

and you worry about what your senior partner

thinks of your work?

- Pulling rank?

Well, do those two stripes give you the privilege

to abuse people?

- Hey, listen. - Hey, hey, knock it off,

you guys.

What the hell's the matter with you?

- I don't know, ask him.

- I don't need Romano second guessing what the hell's

going down in my car.

- Maybe it's time to face the possibility that what's

eating you isn't Stacy.

What was her name, Teresa?

It was in your background investigation when you

transferred in from San Francisco.

- All right, it did enter my mind.

I let my faith and sympathy for Teresa get in the way

of good, common street sense.

Stacy did the same thing with Jennifer Carson,

and she's got to learn.

- And Stacy made a judgment call, just like you did.

- Teresa never did intend to get me any information

on the people behind her out call prostitution operation.

I let her go on a lot of promises.

- And that makes you responsible for the overdose

that killed her?

She shot up by choice.

Just like Jennifer decided to turn tricks.

Their choice, not yours, not Stacy's.

- Then why do I feel responsible?

- Because you cared.

- I didn't know that, Jim.

I'm sorry.

- Stacy cared, too.

And she kept on trying, sometimes faith in people's

all you have to go on.

And you have to go with what's in your gut,

you don't always win.

- Hooker has Palansky to arraign, and we have

a lady cop to keep an eye on.

What do you say we get to it, pal?

- There's a man with a mustache sitting at the front

edge of the runway.

He's the one Bender wanted me to save the big smile for

at the last show.

- Great, I'll check him out.

Listen, about the talk we were gonna have.

- Oh, I don't think we have to.

I phoned Hooker about an hour ago, he told me what's

been on your mind.

Maybe we've both learned something.

- Your date this evening?

- Well, he's asked, but I haven't said yes yet.

- Good.

Because I think I found a more profitable way for you

to spend the rest of the afternoon.

How would you like to entertain my most valuable buyer

until he leaves town?

For cash.

Lots of cash.

- Well, why not?

Just let me tell Jim I can't make it and I'll change

and get my stuff.

- This dress is what we're selling.

And your stuff doesn't match.

I'll take charge of your things personally.

We'll see you get them in the morning.

Now, your date is waiting for you in a limousine out back.

- OK.

- You look like you've just lost your best friend.

Maybe a willing substitute would do?

- I was supposed to get the name of the buyer

who was sitting here for my boss.

And the quicker I do that, the quicker I'm on my own time.

- He's New York's own Peter Weston.

My competition.

Very big in the business.

Not my type.

Bizarre, you know.

You, on the other hand.

- I'll be right back, don't go away.

Where's Stacy?

- I think you've been stood up in favor of business.

Andre just put her in a white limo out back.

(dramatic music)

- Stacy's been picked up.

It might be our guy.

Supposed to be in a white limo, did you see it?

- Nothing.

You don't have any idea where she's going?

- No, she could be with a New York buyer named

Peter Weston.

Described as bizarre.

This 16 requesting a clear frequency for a crime broadcast.

- That friend of Stacy's, do you know anything about him?

- Only that I'd take him off her hands, any night

of the week. - I bet you would.

- I'll see you tomorrow.

- And we've set up an area search for the limo.

She's disappeared into thin air, Hooker.

- All right, I'll get research going on limousine services

and city hotels for Weston.

You get an APB out on that white limo.

- Roger, we're on it.

(ominous music)

- You know, you're very beautiful.

And clothes do make a difference.

But I suspect you look even more stunning without them, hmm?

Right by the pool.

Convenient, isn't it?

- Let me make you comfortable.

- The closet is right there.

(beeping)

- [Woman] Four Adam 30, academy precinct reports

your search request on Peter Weston indicates

an individual of that name registered

at the Pebble Sands Hotel, bungalow seven.

- 30 Roger, I'm rolling, code three.

(sirens blaring, dramatic music)

- 16, inform 30 that Officer Sheridan is burned.

Suspect Bender possibly en route to the same location.

We're backing.

- You know what I like?

I like pretty girls who enjoy an adventure.

- You don't want to hit me with that.

- It's all part of the game, Stacy.

- The same game you played with Jennifer Carson?

You used that same belt on her, didn't you?

And then you killed her. - No.

- Yes.

You shot her and then you dumped her body.

- No.

She was a lovely girl, I didn't.

Who are you, what are you trying to do to me?

- I'm a police officer, Mr. Weston.

You're under arrest.

- Jennifer was alive when she left her.

And I swear, I didn't want to hurt her.

She was a lovely, sweet girl.

Sometimes I just, sometimes,

I just get, I lose control of myself, I just lose control.

Help me, please, I need help.

- I'll help you.

But you have to help me.

- That beautiful girl, and he said she just went away,

went back home. - Who said?

Bender?

Tell me, it was Bender, wasn't it?

- Yes, it was Bender, Stacy.

But nobody except the three of us is ever gonna know it.

Jennifer.

Nicole.

Charlie Jinelle.

(sirens blaring, dramatic music)

They were all a threat to me and everything I was

trying to build, and now you.

- P seven tells most of the story.

Just never figured out the Jinelle motive.

- He was trying to shake me down for that fire

I collected on to start my business out here.

Now you know.

You can both take it with you.

- What are you saying?

- I'm leaving the police with a remorseful sex offender

and his last victim.

- All right, Bender, drop it.

- Get out of my way.

(gun shooting)

(grunting)

(gentle music)

- Got a minute?

- Are you kidding, come on in.

You are the first friendly face I've seen around here.

Everyone else in uniform wants to poke me or prod me

or take my temperature.

- Well, I just happen to have someone with me

who's dying to make his first hospital visit.

Want to see him?

- Oh, yes.

- Come on in.

- Mommy, Mommy. - Baby.

- Come here.

(laughing)

- Baby. - Davey said

he's gonna look out for you from now on.

Gonna make his job easy?

- Guaranteed, Hooker.

That's guaranteed.

- So, do you think she's gonna give up the life?

- I think so.

Of course, I do have a habit of being optimistic

about people I like.

- That's a good habit for a cop to keep,

don't you think, Corrigan?

- I can get behind that, damn straight.

We'll talk.
