HOW�S IT GOING, GREG?

I�M A SOLO ACT.

MORNING, ANDY.

YOU LOOK LIKE HAM WITHOUT CHEESE.

I�M A SOLO ACT WITHOUT JAMES NEXT TO ME.

GUY HAD BEEN IN THE DRUGSTORE. LOOKS LIKE HE WAS GOING TO HIS CAR.

CLERK WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT CAME FORWARD.

YOU SEE THE SHOOTER?

WHEN I HEARD THE SHOT, I RAN OUTSIDE

AND THEN CALLED 911.

ANYONE SUSPICIOUS IN THE STORE JUST BEFORE?

I DIDN�T SEE ANYONE.

AW, JEEZ.

ROBBED. DID YOU GET HER NUMBER?

YEAH, ALL HER INFORMATION.

THANK YOU. WE�LL BE CONTACTING YOU LATER.

Woman: SORRY.

FRANCIS XAVIER COLLINS.

GOD. HE�S A COP!

YOU DIDN�T GO THROUGH HIS POCKETS?

WE�RE NOT SUPPOSED TO.

ALL RIGHT.

YOU DIDN�T SEE THIS BULGE ON THE SIDE OF HIS SHIRT?

MILLER, LET ME GET THE COMMAND CHIEF NOTIFIED.

IF WE GO THROUGH THEIR POCKETS, HE BREAKS OUR BALLS.

HAD A QUARTER FEELING THIS WAS A COP.

SO DID MILLER, ANDY.

HOW ARE YOU DOING, JILL?

ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER, I GUESS.

I KEEP WAITING TO HEAR A BETTER IDEA.

ARE YOUR MOM AND YOUR BROTHER OKAY?

WAS THAT ONE OF THEM BEEPING YOU LAST NIGHT?

YEAH, THEY�RE OKAY.

I ASSUME DON MADE IT OUT OF TOWN,

OR I ASSUME HE WOULD HAVE REACHED OUT FOR MORE MONEY.

YOU�RE WEARING BOBBY�S RING.

YEAH, I�M WEARING IT.

NEVER SAW YOU DO THAT BEFORE.

15th SQUAD. DETECTIVE RUSSELL.

NO, BUT, I CAN RELAY THE INFORMATION.

-RIGHT.

HI, GOOD MORNING. I�M HERE TO SEE LIEUTENANT FANCY.

IS HE EXPECTING YOU?

I WAS TRANSFERRED TO THIS SQUAD.

THERE�S LIEUTENANT FANCY�S OFFICE.

Fancy: THEY�RE ON THEIR WAY BACK.

I�LL CALL IF THEY HAVE ANYTHING.

ALL RIGHT.

LIEUTENANT FANCY, I�M BALDWIN JONES.

GOOD TO MEET YOU.

I�M TRANSFERRING TO YOUR SQUAD.

I GUESS SOMEONE MISSED MAKING A PHONE CALL.

NOT THE FIRST TIME THAT�S HAPPENED ON THIS JOB.

ANYWAYS...

SO, BIAS INCIDENT INVESTIGATIONS UNIT.

YES, SIR. WE ACCOMPLISHED A LOT,

BUT I WANTED INTO SOME REAL SQUAD WORK.

I JUST FOUND OUT WE GOT AN OFF-DUTY COP D. O. A.

HOW�D THAT HAPPEN?

LOOKS LIKE A ROBBERY IN THE STREET.

ALL RIGHT, LET ME GET YOU INTRODUCED. GOOD.

TRACK DOWN THAT COMMUNICATIONS PROBLEM

LATER ON.

D.O.A. SHOT IN THE BACK AND ROBBED. NO WITNESSES.

WE GO THROUGH HIS EFFECTS, COME UP WITH A SHIELD.

FRANK COLLINS, WORKED NARCOTICS IN MANHATTAN SOUTH.

CHAPLAIN�S OFFICE IS TRACKING DOWN HIS WIFE.

THIS IS BALDWIN JONES. HE�S COMING INTO THE SQUAD.

ANDY SIPOWICZ. HOW�S IT GOING?

JOE PAVELKA SAYS HELLO.

GOOD TO MEET YOU, DANNY.

DIANE RUSSELL. MY PARTNER, JILL KIRKENDALL.

BALDWIN JONES. HOW YOU DOIN�? HEY.

GREG MEDAVOY, BALDWIN.

GOOD TO MEET YOU, GREG.

WHAT�S THAT? Fancy: ANONYMOUS TIP.

THE D. O. A. AND HIS PARTNER WERE HAVING AN AFFAIR. COME ON.

PHONE LINES GO DOWN

BEFORE THE TIPSTER CONVEYED IF THAT WAS RELEVANT?

GET THE PARTNER. FIND OUT WHAT COLLINS WAS WORKING ON.

IT�S GONNA BE SKELLS DID THE HOMICIDE.

YOU AND SORENSON GOT TO RUN THE TRIANGLE DOWN.

NARCOTICS AND VICE CAN HELP CHECK THE TRACE.

IF COLLINS WAS INVOLVED WITH HIS PARTNER, ANDY,

HIS WIFE WON�T WANT TO BE TALKING TO FEMALE DETECTIVES.

ARE WE BORING YOU?

NO.

I�M GOING TO WANT BALDWIN PARTNERED WITH GREG.

THAT�LL BE YOURS.

COME ON,

LET�S GET YOU SITUATED HERE.

EXCUSE ME. EXCUSE ME.

I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU.

YEAH, SAME HERE, BALDWIN.

"JOE PAVELKA SAYS HI." YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, DON�T YOU?

I�D NEED A SECOND CUP OF COFFEE.

BALDWIN OVER THERE WORKED IN THE BIAS UNIT.

YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS.

EVERY WORD FROM NOW ON YOU GOT TO DRY-CLEAN.

FRUIT, WINK, WOP --

GET THEM ALL OUT.

I�M DONE. I SAID MINE OVER MY MORNING CEREAL.

HE�S STAND-OFFISH, TOO. DID YOU GET THAT IMPRESSION?

THIS WAS MY FORMER PARTNER JAMES MARTINEZ�S DESK.

AND THIS WAS HIS CHAIR.

JAMES WENT ON TO BECOME A SERGEANT.

IS THAT RIGHT?

YOU WANT TO TRY IT OUT, BALDWIN?

LOOK AT THAT. IT FITS YOU GOOD.

YOU KNOW,

I GOT TWO COUSINS LIVE IN BALDWIN, LONG ISLAND,

WHICH IS PROBABLY A LONG SHOT WHERE YOUR NAME�S DERIVED.

MY MOMS NAMED ME AFTER THE WRITER JAMES BALDWIN.

HEY. "INVISIBLE MAN."

NO, ACTUALLY, RALPH ELLISON WAS THE BLACK WRITER THAT WROTE "INVISIBLE MAN."

YEAH. JAMES BALDWIN.

"GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN."

THERE YOU GO, GREG.

NO, �CAUSE MY WIFE TOOK THIS COURSE --

MY FORMER WIFE --

AND SHE HAD HER BOOKS STACKED ON OUR NIGHT DRESSER.

SO, ARE WE HEADING OUT SOON?

YEAH, ANY MINUTE NOW.

IF YOU DON�T MIND, I LIKE BEING CALLED D.

D.? GOOD.

YEAH, AND, I LIKE GOING WITH GREG.

OKAY.

Greg: HERE WE GO.

SEE YOU LATER, GUYS.

WAS GREG STYLING?

BALDWIN JONES.

SORRY I DIDN�T SAY HI EARLIER. I WAS NERVOUS.

JOHN...IRVIN.

HUMPH. THIS MARTINEZ WITH HIS CAREER AMBITIONS.

HOW�S IT WORKING, MY FRIEND?

WHAT�S GOING ON, DANNY?

WHAT�S GOING ON, J. B.?

SUN CAME UP, AM I RIGHT?

LEAVE OUR HEARTS HOME, BRING OUR BALLS TO THE STREET.

THAT�S DISRESPECTFUL.

�CON PERMISSIMO?

NO, WHY DON�T YOU STAND AND TELL ME WHAT YOU GOT?

JIMMY IPPOLITO.

I GOT -- I SAW SOMETHING AROUND THAT COP.

I NEED SOME HELP TO MOVE HIM.

HOW YOU GOING TO MOVE JIMMY IPPOLITO?

TRYING TO GET ME DIVULGING TRADE SECRETS.

JUST THROW ME THE FINANCE, DANNY, AND LEAVE ME TO MY WILY WAYS.

JIMMY IPPOLITO�S A JUNKIE.

SO WHAT?

ARE YOU GOING TO USE TO MOVE HIM?

WHY SHOULD I USE? I�LL DO MY ACT, HE�LL DO HIS.

ARE YOU HIGH NOW, J. B.?

WHAT, DID WE SUDDENLY INTRODUCE A MORALS CLAUSE?

WHEN DID YOU START USING AGAIN?

I ADMITTED NO GUILT -- A.

I THOUGHT WE WERE ON THE TRAIL OF A COP KILLER.

WE ARE. YOU LET YOUR JONES BRING YOU IN HERE LYING.

MY SMALL SLIP STRIKES JIMMY IPPOLITO BLIND.

IF JIMMY IPPOLITO SAW WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT COP,

HE�D BE UP HERE LOOKING TO EARN.

BEAT IT, J. B.

BEAT IT?

WALK OUT

AND GET STRAIGHT BEFORE I SEE YOU AGAIN.

YEAH, WELL, MAYBE JIMMY IPPOLITO�S NOT UP HERE

BECAUSE HE�S NOT GULLIBLE LIKE CERTAIN OTHER PEOPLE,

ALL RIGHT, DANNY,

WHO�S HIS FRIEND?

OR CUT HIM SOME SLACK WHEN HE SLIPS.

GOOD LUCK FINDING YOUR COP KILLER.

PEOPLE AROUND HERE

GOT THEIR VALUES ALL UPSIDE DOWN.

Man over Recording: FRANK COLLINS WAS CHEATING ON HIS WIFE.

HE WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH LISA MARANTZ.

LOOK AT THAT PART OF HIS DEATH.

WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN? "LOOK AT THAT PART OF HIS DEATH"?

NO ONE AT THEIR STATION RECOGNIZED HIS VOICE.

TALKING THROUGH A HANDKERCHIEF.

THAT�S SOME GOSSIPING JERK,

DON�T KNOW DICK ABOUT THIS HOMICIDE.

YOU SAYING WE SHOULDN�T LOOK AT THE ANGLE?

FEMALE PARTNER COULD�VE HAD A JEALOUS BOYFRIEND.

WIFE COULD�VE HIRED SOMEONE.

AND LET�S NOT RULE OUT THEM TWO LAS VEGAS FRUITCAKES

WITH THEIR MAGICAL TIGER ACT FOR POSSIBLE SUSPECTS.

DON�T WORRY. WE�LL COME DOWN ON THE PARTNER AND WIFE

LIKE A TON OF BRICKS.

HI.

GOING TO BE THE PARTNER.

GOT THAT SHIFTY LOOK ABOUT HER, TOO.

ARTHUR FANCY.

HOW�S IT GOING, LIEUTENANT?

SO I GUESS MY PHONE�S NOT OUT OF ORDER.

YEAH, BALDWIN JONES. THAT�S RIGHT.

THIS IS LISA MORANTZ.

ANDY SIPOWICZ.

I WAS FRANK COLLINS� PARTNER.

DANNY SORENSON. APPRECIATE YOUR COMING OVER.

COME ON. LET�S TALK IN HERE.

REST OF YOUR SQUAD�S OUT?

YEAH, THEY�RE OUT WORKING THIS.

45 MINUTES.

FINE.

YOU GUYS GOT A DIRECTION?

NOT YET.

SOME LOUSY RANDOM FLUKEY STREET CRIME.

YEAH, ROBBERY�S A DEFINITE POSSIBILITY.

ANYONE YOU GUYS LOCKED UP WHO HAD A HARD-ON FOR FRANK

GET PAROLED OR MAKE BAIL?

NO. BEEN RACKING MY BRAIN.

ANY SITUATION FRANK MIGHT HAVE BEEN IN

THAT COULD HAVE MADE HIM VULNERABLE?

WHAT�S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

WE�RE LOOKING FOR DIRECTIONS.

WELL, DON�T LOOK IN THAT ONE. FRANK WAS AN HONEST COP.

NO, THAT�S WHAT EVERYONE SAID.

HOW LONG WERE THE TWO OF YOU PARTNERED?

ALMOST NINE MONTHS.

FRANK YOUR FIRST?

MY FIRST PARTNER 3/4�d OFF A RUPTURED DISC

SEVEN WEEKS AFTER WE STARTED.

FRANK HAD A DISC TWICE THAT BAD.

HE�D BEEN HIDING IT FOR FIVE YEARS SO HE COULD KEEP WORKING.

HE HAVE ANY FAMILY PROBLEMS?

ANYTHING THAT MIGHT GIVE US A DIRECTION?

FRANK LOVED HIS FAMILY.

HE LOVED HIS WIFE, AND HE LOVED HIS KIDS.

ANY BROTHERS OR SISTERS HE HAD PROBLEMS WITH?

PAIN-IN-THE-BALLS IN-LAWS?

NO. I DON�T KNOW.

HE DIDN�T HAVE NO PROBLEMS, OR YOU DON�T KNOW?

DON�T THINK HE HAD ANY.

I DIDN�T QUIZ HIM ON HIS FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS.

YOU PARTNER WITH SOMEBODY, YOU DON�T NEED TO QUIZ THEM.

I DON�T KNOW ANY PROBLEMS HE HAD, OKAY?

HEY, LISA, YOU GOT A BUS TO CATCH?

YOUR PARTNER JUST GOT SHOT.

HEY, SCREW YOU, SAYING THAT TO ME! COME ON, ANDY.

NO, BUT SHE�S RESENTFUL WE GOT TO ASK QUESTIONS.

I�M A LITTLE UPSET MY PARTNER GOT KILLED,

ALL RIGHT, ASSHOLE?

I DON�T MIND IF YOU�RE A LITTLE UPSET.

MIND IF I�M TRYING TO CLEAR A COP HOMICIDE?

YEAH, AND I DON�T WANT IT SOLVED.

REALLY? WHY?

WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT TO KNOW?

BECAUSE I�M OUT OF HERE.

JEEZ, LET ME RUSH TO THINK.

WERE YOU INVOLVED WITH FRANK, LISA?

IS THERE ANYTHING WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT?

MAN.

NO, IS THAT UNHEARD OF?

SCREW YOU, ALL RIGHT?

IN ALL THAT SCREWING, I�M NOT HEARING A "YES" OR "NO."

I�M DONE WITH HIM. I DON�T ANSWER NO MORE QUESTIONS FROM HIM.

WERE YOU AND FRANK ROMANTICALLY INVOLVED?

FRANK WAS MARRIED, AND I HAVE A BOYFRIEND.

WHO? JACK GORMAN AT THE 3-4.

I�M WAITING TO HEAR HER SAY

SHE WASN�T SCREWING HER PARTNER.

YOU PRICK.

YOU PRICK! GOD!

MY GOD.

MY GOD.

YOU WOULDN�T BE THE FIRST, LISA.

IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT HAPPENED,

I SWEAR TO GOD.

ALL RIGHT.

ALL RIGHT.

ARTHUR.

YOU SHOW ME A LOT OF INITIATIVE.

THIS WON�T TAKE LONG.

COORDINATING ON A CASE WITH THE FEDS.

ON THIS TRANSFER...

BALDWIN JONES.

YEAH.

WANT TO TELL ME

WHY YOU DIDN�T GIVE ME A PHONE CALL?

DON�T MAKE TOO MUCH OF IT, ARTHUR. I HAD IT ON MY TO-DO LIST.

-

WASN�T A LOT TO SAY, ANYHOW.

BIAS UNIT WASN�T A GOOD FIT,

AND I KNEW BALDWIN WAS GOING TO THE RIGHT COMMAND.

WAS HE A DISCIPLINE PROBLEM?

NO.

WHAT MADE THE FIT BAD?

WHEN IT WAS TIME TO SWALLOW OR SPIT

ON WHETHER OR NOT TO FIND A HATE COMPONENT,

BALDWIN STILL TENDED TO CHEW.

HE SAW COMPLEXITY

WHERE I FELT A SIMPLER STANDARD SHOULD APPLY.

YOU AND HE DISAGREED.

WE DISAGREED.

HOW IS THE 15th, ARTHUR?

HOW�S, UM...

SIPOWICZ.

YEAH. SIPOWICZ.

HOW IS HE COMING ALONG?

STILL DOING HIS JOB.

NOT THAT HIS TYPE OF RACIST PRICK EVER DOES,

OR YOU�D EVER HOLD HIM TO IT,

BUT I GUESS HE HAS YOU TO THANK FOR THAT.

I GUESS WE ALL HAVE YOU TO THANK.

THANKS FOR THE RECOMMENDATION ON JONES.

DID I RECOMMEND HIM?

A GOOD COP HAS TO KNOW HOW TO LISTEN.

I�M PRETTY BUSY HERE, ARTHUR.

Andy: ANYWAYS, THAT�S ACCOMPLISHED.

THIS GIRL COLLINS WAS RIDING WITH

ADMITTING THAT SHE AND COLLINS WERE INVOLVED

EVEN THOUGH THAT DON�T HAVE DICK TO DO

WITH HIM BEING KILLED.

HOW LONG YOU GOING TO WASH?

I�M FINISHED NOW. I�M GOING OVER TO DRY.

MIDDLE OF THE INTERVIEW,

THE PARTNER MENTIONED DATING A COP AT THE 3-4 JACK GORMAN.

MAYBE LOOK AT HIM FOR A JEALOUSY MOTIVE?

SHE MENTIONED THE 3-4 COP TO STEER US OFF.

SHE HADN�T ADMITTED TO SLEEPING WITH HER PARTNER

AT THAT POINT.

WE�RE STILL GOING TO BRING THE 3-4 COP IN JUST TO BE THOROUGH.

MRS. COLLINS IS HERE.

YOU SAID TO LET YOU KNOW IMMEDIATELY.

YEAH, BECAUSE NOW WE GET TO MAKE THE WIDOW MISERABLE

ASKING HER A BUNCH OF QUESTIONS

THAT DON�T HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PRICE OF EGGS.

GO AHEAD. JUST GO AHEAD.

OKAY.

SHEESH. LOOKS LIKE HE WAS ON ONE OF THEM

CARNIVAL TORTURE WHEELS

WHERE THOSE GUYS THROW THOSE DAGGERS AT YOU.

ANYTHING COMING OFF THE SWEEPS?

NOT YET.

ANYWAYS, THAT WAS DEFINITELY THE RIGHT ALLOCATION,

PUTTING OUR CRACK NEW MANPOWER OUT THERE.

FIRST DAY ON THE SQUAD,

WOULD YOU HAVE ASSIGNED HIM ONE OF THOSE FAMILY INTERVIEWS?

GOT AN ANSWER FOR EVERYTHING,

THIS GUY.

ANDY, BREATHE.

I DON�T DO THAT STUFF.

I�M ANNE COLLINS.

ANDY SIPOWICZ. I�M SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

THIS IS OFFICER WALSH KEEPING ME COMPANY.

MY PARTNER DANNY SORENSON.

SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS, MRS. COLLINS.

I KNOW YOU HAVE TO.

I DIDN�T WANT TO TALK TO YOU IN MY HOUSE.

BE MORE COMFORTABLE IN OUR COFFEE ROOM?

-

BRIEFLY AS WE CAN, MRS. COLLINS,

THERE ANYONE YOU FEEL WE SHOULD BE TALKING TO

CONCERNING YOUR HUSBAND�S DEATH?

NO.

I WISH HE DIED HAPPIER,

IN HIS MORE NATURAL HAPPINESS.

THAT�S THE ONLY THING.

I SEE.

FRANK WAS SO GOOD,

AND HE HAD A LOT OF HAPPINESS,

AND HE WAS A WONDERFUL DAD.

IS THAT SO?

AND THAT HE SHOULD DIE UNHAPPY

AND FEELING BAD ABOUT HIMSELF

IS WHAT I�M REALLY SORRY FOR.

WHAT WAS IT MAKING HIM UNHAPPY?

IN HIS PERSONAL CONDUCT AND WAY HE LOST CONTROL.

IN A RELATIONSHIP?

HE LOST CONTROL OF HIS BEHAVIOR,

AND HE KNEW THAT I COULD TELL,

AND THE HARDER HE TRIED TO CONTROL IT,

THE MORE ASHAMED HE�D BE AND UNHAPPY...

AND EVEN THE BOYS GOT WHERE THEY COULD TELL,

EVEN THOUGH HE KEPT UP WITH

WHAT THEY�D DO TOGETHER.

DID IT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIM DYING --

THE OUT-OF-CONTROL RELATIONSHIP?

SHE�S NOT SELFISH.

SHE WAS SORRY IT WAS HAPPENING.

SHE�S NOT A SELFISH GIRL.

TO HAVE TO DIE

BEFORE HE CAME BACK TO HIMSELF IS...

THANKS VERY MUCH FOR COMING IN.

PROBABLY JUST SOMETHING BAD THAT HAPPENED --

SEEING HIM COME OUT OF THE GROCERY OR SO FORTH.

SOMEONE JUST ON THE STREET.

THAT�S HOW WE�RE GOING TO GO AT IT.

THE DAY FEMALE COPS GOT ASSIGNED

AS PARTNERS IN RADIO CARS,

THE WIVES DEMONSTRATED OUTSIDE POLICE HEADQUARTERS.

LIKE THAT WAS THE DAY GUYS INVENTED CHEATING.

DON�T TAP THE TANK.

I WASN�T TAPPING THE TANK.

YOU WERE THINKING ABOUT TAPPING THE TANK.

THIS TOMAS IS IN A BAR.

A LITTLE WHILE AFTER COLLINS GETS SHOT,

A GUY HE�S SEEN AROUND COMES TO HIM AND SAYS HE WANTS TO COP.

WHICH ISN�T THE OTHER GUY�S USUAL ACT.

TELLS TOMAS HE DID A BAD THING.

IF TOMAS WILL BRING IT BACK, HE�LL PAY $15 FOR A $10 BAG TO GET HIMSELF RIGHT.

TOMAS SCORES THE BAG, BRINGS IT BACK --

GUY DON�T WANT THE DOPE NO MORE.

HE HAD A COUPLE OF DRINKS IN HIM.

HE�S CALMED HIMSELF DOWN,

PRESUMABLY NOT FEELING AS MUCH REMORSE

ABOUT THE BAD THING HE DID THIS MORNING,

I.E. POSSIBLY MURDERING A COP

IS WHAT TOMAS IS THINKING,

AND, WE FEEL IT�S WORTH A SHOT.

WE GOT A NAME?

NO NAME, BUT TOMAS SAYS EVERY TIME HE�S IN THE BAR,

THIS GUY IS, TOO.

SO THAT�S PROBABLY WHERE WE CAN REACH HIM.

WE GOT TOMAS FOR POSSESSION.

SAYS HE�LL PICK THE GUY OUT FOR A WALK AND 500.

$500 IF THE GUY�S RIGHT FOR THE MURDER.

YEAH, 500 IF HE�S RIGHT.

GET BACKUP FROM ANTI-CRIME.

COME ON. I�M GOING TO GET YOU INTO SOMETHING UNRECOGNIZABLE.

NOT LIKE WHAT HE�S GOT ON.

HEY, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH WHAT I GOT ON?

BEFORE I�D PUT A SHIRT LIKE THAT ON,

I�D THROW MYSELF UNDER THE "A" TRAIN.

DON�T HIT HIM, ANDY. I THINK THEY GOT TO USE HIM.

I THINK THAT�S ONE OF YOUR NICEST PATTERNS.

HOW.

POLICE! NOBODY MOVE! HANDS WHERE WE CAN SEE THEM.

GET YOUR HANDS ON THE BAR.

YOU CAN�T EVEN HAVE A DRINK WITHOUT THE COPS BUSTING IN.

HEY, HAVE WE GOT A WARRANT ON YOU? NO, MAN. I�M CLEAN.

DO YOU WANT TO GO TO JAIL? NO.

DO YOU WANT TO GO TO JAIL?-

SHUT UP AND TURN AROUND.

OKAY, READY.

I�M SCARED. I�M SCARED.

IT�S OKAY. JUST RELAX.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS, THE UNKNOWN COMIC?

WHAT DID I TELL YOU? MAN, I LOVE HIS STUFF.

TURN AROUND.

Greg: JUST POINT.

THAT�S HIM.

WHAT�S GOING ON? WHAT DID I DO?

SHUT UP. WHAT YOU BOTHERING ME FOR?

GET ALL YOUR ANSWERS DOWN AT THE STATION.

COPS COME IN, DISTRACT US WITH THE UNKNOWN COMIC,

COLLAR MY HOMEBOY WITH THE RAGGEDY HOOD

AND THAT CHEAP-ASS WINDBREAKER.

YOU NEED TO CHECK YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR, MY BROTHER.

MAN, I�M LOOKING GOOD.

ANDY, HAVE YOU GOT A MINUTE?

YOU SURE THAT�S ALL YOU�LL NEED?

I�LL HOLD THE FORT.

WHAT�S THE MATTER?

UM, THAT BURNED-UP D.O.A. FROM LAST NIGHT IN THE 27th?

DON�T FORGET DECAPITATED.

I�VE GOT AN IDEA WHO THAT WAS,

A PRETTY GOOD IDEA...

AND IF IT WAS A GUY

WHERE THERE WAS NO UPSIDE, REALLY,

ANYONE KNOWING WHO IT WAS

AND A BIG DOWNSIDE EMOTIONALLY, YOU KNOW,

WHERE A SURVIVING FAMILY MEMBER�S FEELING

ABOUT HERSELF AND HER WHOLE FAMILY SITUATION

WOULD BE SO MUCH BETTER WITHOUT KNOWING

HOW IT WAS THIS GUY HAD DIED

OR THAT HE HAD DIED,

WOULD YOU TELL HER WHO HE WAS

AND WHAT HAD HAPPENED?

WHAT WOULD IT DO TO YOU NOT TELLING HER?

WHAT WOULD IT DO TO ME?

CARRYING IT AROUND, YOU DIDN�T.

I-I�M NOT THE ONE

I�M WORRIED ABOUT RIGHT NOW, ANDY.

IF IT WAS ME...

PRETTY SOON I WOULDN�T LIKE SEEING HER NO MORE,

WORKING NEXT TO HER.

EVERYTHING WOULD REMIND ME OF THE SECRET.

WOULD YOU BE WILLING

TO, LET THE RELATIONSHIP GO BAD THAT WAY --

THE PARTNERSHIP?

THANKS.

I�M ALSO AVAILABLE FOR CHECKERS.

YOU�LL KNOW HOW TO DO IT.

WHAT�S UP?

WANTS ME TO FIX A TICKET.

JACK GORMAN.

ANDY SIPOWICZ. MY PARTNER DANNY SORENSON.

Danny: THANKS FOR COMING OVER. SURE.

HAVE A SEAT.

YOU HEARD ABOUT THIS COP HOMICIDE?

YEAH.

Danny: FRANK COLLINS.

YEAH, I HEARD.

LISA MORANTZ THAT WAS PARTNERED WITH COLLINS SAID THE TWO OF YOU WENT OUT.

WE STOPPED FOUR MONTHS AGO.

SORRY FOR THE PERSONAL QUESTION.

WHOSE IDEA WAS STOPPING?

WHOSE DID SHE SAY?

SHE SAID IT WAS HER IDEA.

OKAY, THEN. I GO ALONG WITH THAT.

YOU KNOW WHO SHE GOT INVOLVED WITH SUBSEQUENT?

NOT REALLY, NO.

YOU WEREN�T INTERESTED?

NO.

SHE SAID SHE GOT INVOLVED WITH COLLINS.

OKAY, THEN SHE GOT INVOLVED WITH COLLINS.

DO YOU WANT US TO LIKE YOU FOR THIS HOMICIDE?

I�M NOT INVOLVED IN THIS HOMICIDE

AND LISA�S PERSONAL LIFE ANYMORE.

YOU ACCOUNT FOR YOUR TIME THIS MORNIN�?

I�M A DOORMAN AT THE WORCHESTER.

I�M ON VIDEOTAPE TILL 7:00 A. M.

THE D. O. A. WAS CALLED IN AT 7:15.

OKAY, THEN I�M A SUSPECT.

I DROVE 80 MILES AN HOUR FROM MIDTOWN,

AND I GOT LUCKY FINDING THE GUY ON THE STREET.

I KILLED THE PRICK OVER MY EX-GIRLFRIEND

FALLING IN LOVE WITH HIM.

THANKS FOR COMING IN.

HOW BAD�S LISA TAKING IT?

SHE�S TAKING IT HARD.

TOTALLY BLIND ALLEY.

JOSH, CAN YOU HELP BALDWIN A MINUTE,

PUT THIS GUY IN THE POKEY?

THIS CAME IN.

BALDWIN�S SOME EFFICIENT, CALLING AHEAD

TO RUN THIS DARNELL JAMES THROUGH BCI?

HOW YOU GOING TO GO AT HIM?

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

THINK MAYBE WE SHOULD SEE WHAT KIND OF CHOPS HE�S GOT?

MIGHT AS WELL.

HE FALLS DOWN AT ALL, THIS BALDWIN, I�M THERE TO STEP IN.

HOW DO YOU WANT TO WORK HIM?

GO AHEAD AND TAKE HIM.

LET�S SEE WHAT KIND OF CHOPS YOU GOT.

YOU SHOT A COP, DARNELL.

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

YOU SHOT A COP.

I DIDN�T SHOOT NOBODY!

COME WALKING IN ON MY DRINKIN�,

BRINGING SOME FOOL WITH HIS HEAD IN A BAG.

IT WAS A COP YOU SHOT, AND HE DIED.

I DIDN�T ROB ANYBODY OR SHOOT ANYBODY --

COP OR NO COP.

LIE, DARNELL, I�M GOING TO BUST YOU UP.

I AIN�T GOING FOR SOMETHING I DIDN�T DO.

Baldwin: YOU�VE GOT TO SHOW ME YOU DIDN�T MEAN FOR IT TO BE A KILLING.

YOUR MAN GOT HEARING PROBLEMS.

IT�S THE ONLIEST WAY YOU�RE GOING TO BEAT EXECUTION.

IS THAT MY ACT, SHOOTING A DAMN COP?

YOU GOT MY SHEET RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU.

I SEE TWO STREET STICKUPS.

YOU SEE A SINGLE DAMN TIME A GUN WAS FIRED?

YOU GONNA LET THAT SPEAK FOR YOU?

SHOW HOW THIS WAS AN ACCIDENT, OR SIT THERE ACTIN� A FOOL?

SHOOTING ANY DAMN PERSON AIN�T MY ACT.

AND PUTTING ME SHOOTING A COP OVER SOME CHUMP CHANGE?

YOU MUST THINK I�M A DAMN IDIOT.

HOW MUCH MONEY WAS IT GOT STOLE FROM THIS GUY?

AAH!

I TOLD YOU NOT TO LIE, DARNELL.

YOU STOLE MONEY. YOU KNOW HOW MUCH YOU TOOK.

THINK I�M GOING TO STAND FOR YOU BEATING ON ME?

WHAT IF I ASK FOR A DAMN LAWYER?

ASK FOR A SYRINGE. YOU KILLED A COP.

WITHOUT EXPLANATION OR REMORSE,

YOU�RE A DEAD MAN.

GET UP AND SIT DOWN.

MAKE ME BELIEVE THIS HAPPENED

WITHOUT YOU MEANING IT, DARNELL.

I�LL STAND UP IN COURT WITH YOU

AND I�LL SAY THAT TO THE JUDGE.

WILL YOU, MY BROTHER?

YOU SHOOT HIM BY ACCIDENT?

I DIDN�T SHOOT HIM AT ALL! DON�T HIT ME. DON�T HIT ME.

THE DAMN GUN JUST WENT OFF ON ME.

MY GUN�S A LITTLE POO-PUTT .22,

TWO NIGHTS AGO I TOOK OFF SOME FOOL,

HE HAD A DAMN .380 AUTOMATIC IN HIS BELT.

THAT�S WHAT KILLED MY MAN.

YOU GOT THAT RIGHT.

IT WAS THE GUN THAT KILLED HIM.

THE DAMN GUN WENT OFF

WHILE ALL I WAS DOING WAS COCKING IT.

THAT�S THE WHOLE DAMN THING THAT HAPPENED.

THINK I WANT TO SHOOT SOMEBODY IN THE BACK?

THAT AIN�T MY ACT.

THINK I WANT TO SHOOT A DAMN COP?

I NEED THE HAIR-TRIGGER .380

TO MAKE ME BELIEVE YOU, DARNELL.

YOU GOING TO TAKE ME TO IT?

THAT�S A NICE INTERVIEW.

YOU�D HAVE LIKED TO SEE WHAT KIND OF LEFT HE�S GOT.

HEY, BALDWIN.

HEY, GREG.

I WAS CHANGING A DAMN TYPEWRITER RIBBON.

I GOT INK ALL OVER MY HANDS.

D., RIGHT?

YOU WANT ME TO CALL YOU D.

IT AIN�T NO BIG THING.

NO, NO, I-I�LL GET IT.

I�M GOING TO TAKE MY RUN.

YEAH?

HEADQUARTERS, I RUN THE FDR TO THE 59th STREET BRIDGE.

HERE I�M GOING TO TRY IT UP TO 72nd STREET.

STRETCH IT OUT A LITTLE?

WELL, YOU�RE A GROWING BOY.

ANYWAYS, I WAS GOING TO INVITE YOU

FOR A SANDWICH OR A BITE TO EAT,

BUT THAT�S OBVIOUSLY OUT.

WANT TO GO OUT?

NO, GO AHEAD AND TAKE YOUR RUN.

I CAN TAKE MY RUN IN THE MORNING.

NO, THAT�S SOME GOOD DISCIPLINE ROUTINE.

PROBABLY I SHOULD BE DOING SOME RATIONAL EQUIVALENT

OF THAT MYSELF.

WELL, KEEP ME COMPANY A FEW BLOCKS.

NO, NO, NO.

WE�D WIND UP AT BELLEVUE.

HEY, I-I FEEL WE WORKED GOOD.

I...

I APPRECIATE YOU EXTENDING YOURSELF TO ME, GREG.

WELL, I-I FELT THAT WAS, VERY RECIPROCAL,

COMPLETELY CANDID.

ALL RIGHT. YEAH.

HERE WE GO.

HEY, BOSS.

EXCUSE ME.

WE�VE GOT A RUNNER IN THE SQUAD.

D. HERE�S A RUNNER.

GOOD NIGHT.

NIGHT.

WE�LL BE MORE FUN TOMORROW

WHEN WE�RE NOT PINNED TO OUR DESKS.

ALL RIGHT.

HAVE YOU GOT A MINUTE? SURE.

I-I�LL JUST SAY GOOD NIGHT. SEE YOU TOMORROW.

YEAH, SEE YOU TOMORROW, GREG.

I�LL SEE YOU TOMORROW, PARTNER.

ALL RIGHT.

I FINALLY HOOKED UP WITH LIEUTENANT ABNER.

I�M NOT A BOSS-HATER, LOO.

PEOPLE HAVE HONEST DISAGREEMENTS.

DID HIM NOT CALLING HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH ME?

THERE�S A DETECTIVE IN THIS SQUAD

YOUR OLD BOSS THOUGHT

I SHOULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING ABOUT A LONG TIME AGO.

NOT CALLING IS JUST HIS WAY OF REMINDING ME --

HIS WAY OF SAYING I�M NOT ON THE TEAM.

I TAKE PEOPLE AS I FIND THEM, BALDWIN.

I TRY TO DO THAT, TOO.

I TRY TO LIVE LIKE THAT.

ANYWAYS, UM, I�LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

WE�RE GOING TO HAVE TO WALK DOWN THESE STAIRS TOGETHER.

YEAH, SOMETIMES I JUST TALK

TO HEAR MY OWN VOICE.

THE VOICE ON THAT 911 TAPE, ANDY --

THAT DIDN�T SOUND LIKE THIS GORMAN WE INTERVIEWED, DID IT?

NO.

TO ME IT DIDN�T SOUND LIKE HIM, EITHER.

THE NEW GUY�S GOOD.

BALDWIN -- A NAME LIKE THAT, HIS MOTHER WAS SETTING HIM UP

FOR A CHILDHOOD OF FISTFIGHTS.

I�M FIGURING HER NAMING HIM JOE

MIGHT HAVE RUBBED YOU WRONG, TOO.

BALDWIN.

BALDWIN.

YOU COLLARED UP?

A SKELL WENT TO ROB FRANK. HE WOULDN�T GIVE IT UP.

THE CASE IS GOOD?

YEAH.

AS FAR AS OUR CONVERSATION, LISA,

NOTHING�S GOING IN ON THAT.

AS FAR AS THAT CONVERSATION,

I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND HAVING TO TAKE A CERTAIN TONE.

I LOVED FRANK.

IF I�D BEEN INVOLVED,

I WOULD HAVE WANTED YOU TO GO AT ME LIKE THAT.

ANYWAYS, THERE�S NOTHING ON ANY OF THAT ASPECT.

I FEEL LIKE HE...

WAS PUNISHED FOR WHAT I MADE HIM DO.

NO.

DON�T PUT YOURSELF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE UNIVERSE.

FRANK�S WIFE DON�T BEAR YOU NO ILL WILL, LISA.

SHE TOLD US THAT -- HER OWN WORDS.

GOD.

SHE SAID, "HIS PARTNER IS NOT A SELFISH GIRL."

WHERE�S THE SKELL?

DOWNSTAIRS.

I DON�T THINK I SHOULD SEE HIM.

AS FAR AS THAT JACK GORMAN, THAT COP FROM THE 3-4...

WHAT DID JACK SAY?

JUST CONFIRMED YOUR INFORMATION --

THAT THE TWO OF YOU�D HAD A RELATIONSHIP,

THAT FOR WHATEVER REASON IT STOPPED,

AND, YOU KNOW, HE JUST ASKED AFTER YOU.

NO FIVE ON THAT, EITHER.

Okay.

SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

HI.

CAN WE GO IN HERE?

JILL...

ALL YOU�VE BEEN THROUGH WITH DON

AND KNOWING WHAT HE CHOSE

AS FAR AS WHAT KIND OF LIFE HE WAS LOOKING AT,

WHAT KIND OF THINGS COULD HAPPEN

LIVING THAT KIND OF LIFE...

ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN TO DON.

ISN�T THAT RIGHT?

YEAH.

AND IF THAT HAPPENED,

HOW MUCH WOULD IT BE IMPORTANT TO KNOW ABOUT THAT?

I�M ASKING BECAUSE YESTERDAY AFTER YOU WENT TO SEE DON

AND DID WHAT YOU FELT YOU NEEDED TO DO FOR HIM,

YOU SAID YOU FELT LIKE YOU PAID A RANSOM,

THAT YOU AND THE BOYS COULD BE FREE NOW

SO SOME NEW JOLT WOULDN�T BE AROUND THE CORNER...

WHERE THE DETAILS COULD BREAK YOUR HEART AND THE BOYS�.

WOULD THERE BE ANY POINT

IN KNOWING THE DETAILS

IF SOMETHING HAD HAPPENED TO DON?
