You don�t think he�s ill
in some way,

do you, Sorenson?

Andy? Nah.

Cruller, Eddie?

I just put them out.

Thanks, anyway.

Note I didn�t offer coffee.

I�d go through the roof.

Andy, thank goodness.

Danny: Morning.

How have you been?
How are you doing?

Okay. How are you doing?

Same old,
same old, Andy --

doing what I can,
working night watch.

I need to speak to you
immediately in private, Andy.

That�s the long
and short of it.

Back on them
nasal inhalers, Gibson?

No. Those inhalers
gave me heart palpitations,

besides making me agitated.
Why, do I seem agitated?

No, not compared
to a bank robber.

The first thing
I want to establish --

if you agree --

soup to nuts,
the whole thing�s on me.

You want me to
murder somebody, Gibson?

Because for 100 bucks,
it ain�t happening.

If I had murder money,
I know who i�d have hit --

that dickhead Jimmy elkins.

Four months it took me, Andy,

getting this girl to come up
from Philadelphia.

And Jimmy elkins --
that I ask one lousy favor

and who I have
held the bag for

more times than you
can shake a stick at --

this bum elkins
comes up m. I. A. On me

with eight
lousy hours notice.

Do I got to smack you
in the head

to get you to tell me
whatever it is

you�re trying to say
out of your mouth?

Andy,
my niece is in town --

my sweetheart
of a 38-year-old,

on-the-shy-side,
and plain-looking niece.

Absolutely not, Gibson,
if she was zsa zsa Gabor.

One of his doormen canceled.

He has to fill in.
Now, you tell me,

is that a legitimate excuse

with a girl who cared
for my older sister

through 16 years
of multiple sclerosis?

Good, good. Yeah,
toss in a fatal disease.

Elkins is an 86.

My niece bought
an outfit and shoes.

She�s a sweet girl.

You�re the most
decent guy I know.

No, no.

If you need it now,
my answer is no.

When can I hope
for an alternative?

I need a couple of hours.

I see.

I got to seek counsel.

You sure they�re in,
these people?

I�m going to get
some advice, Gibson,

and I need to see
can I get a sitter.

The $100�s yours regardless.

Go away. I will call you
in a couple of hours.

I�ll be your sitter.

Hey, lieu.

How�s it going, Gibson?

You know me.

Yeah, homicide in an apartment.
Looks gang-related.

I�ll page the others
to meet you.

Good. Homicide, Andy.

I�ll let you guys
get to work.

All right, Gibson.

Great guy, your partner.
One of the greats.

Take care. Be well.

I smelled something foul,
so I opened it up,

and I saw what you saw.

You recognize the d. O. A.?

You kidding me?
One good whiff, I did a 180.

Who lives there?

Ricky guerrero,
up until three weeks ago

when he got evicted.

Let�s go see
if you recognize him.

My paycheck don�t include
for crime fighting services.

Hey, we got
a homicide here, pal.

Come on.
Breathe through your mouth.

Man, I ain�t even
had my coffee yet.

How long you figure
the guy�s been dead?

About three or four days.

How�d he get it?
Back of the head.

There�s graffiti
on the wall

you�re going to
want to look at.

Is that Ricky guerrero?

After he�d been microwaved
on high for 10 minutes.

Ricky have steady company?

Mimi esquibel --

another winner.

Thanks for your help,
Mr. Upchurch.

We�ll be in touch

if we have
any other questions.

How do you do it?

Not for $1 million.

We�ll canvass.

Yeah, good.

Good morning.

Whoa.

Good morning.

Morning, Baldwin.

"P.r. Go home" I got,
the 9 inside a Jewish star.

What the hell is this "ntg"?

Nine Trey gangstas.

I don�t think
that�s a Jewish star.

That�s a Jewish star.

Six points.

All right, so we
eliminate the Israelis.

Steal your bailiwick
from the bias unit, Baldwin,

does this look like
a hate crime

or a gang hit to you?

Not really.

No matter what it looks like
to US mere mortals,

the bureaucratic notifications
have to go out.

The stench sure is trying

to yank that
hollandaise sauce back up.

Then do not visualize things

like licking a dirty ashtray

or chugging a gallon
of cooking oil, Greg.

Medavoy,
you barf on a d. O. A.,

you�re wiping him off.

Tough crowd.

-

-

okay, I got it.

Prints you asked for
come back confirmed

for a Ricky guerrero.

That�s who the super
thought he was -- the d. O. A.

Wouldn�t take too close
a look -- the super.

One to the back
of the head.

Diane and Jill
still on canvass?

Yeah.

Where�s Greg?

He�s on canvass, too.

So what are you
doing here?

Hate graffiti
on the walls.

"P.r. Go home"
above nine trey�s gang tag.

Nine trey�s a blood set.

Crime scene look like
a gang hit?

He could have been hooked
with a gang -- guerrero.

Yeah, the evicted puerto rican

half-assed pimp
and skell-junkie bum set.

Super said he booted guerrero
three weeks ago,

but he was halfway sure
guerrero come back

and squatted
with his girlfriend.

Halfway sure?

Completely sure,
but didn�t feel

like he was getting
paid enough

to do nothing
but look the other way.

He gave US the hooker-
girlfriend�s name.

We�re getting all her places
from b.C.I.

Work that,

and go ahead
and notify the bias unit

behind the graffiti.

I got to say the nine Trey tag
is pretty crude.

Maybe a kid trying
to catch a rep?

Yeah, it could be,

or a misdirect.

So go ahead and notify
lieutenant abner,

the bias unit.

Sure.

That�s some private thing,
bringing abner in.

Yeah.

I was trying to steer the boss
off the hate angle.

Steering the boss?

Very often,

the boss has unannounced
luggage in the boat.

And, times like that,

you let him steer,
and you just paddle

until you figure out
what�s in his suitcase.

Well, let me call
my former boss

over at the bias unit.

I didn�t realize you were
so involved with the sea.

Generations of sipowiczes
have been seafarers.

Come here.

Give me your opinion
on something.

Sure.

Is this about Gibson?

It is about Gibson.

What did he want?

Me to date
his disfigured niece.

She�s disfigured?

I guess
she�s not disfigured.

That�s not the point.

I�m asking,
relevant to my situation,

how does this stack up?

Going out on a date.

It�s not a date --
like keep the disfigured niece

from going off
the Chrysler building

�cause she comes
from Philadelphia

to get stood up
by Jimmy elkins,

and she�s a retiring type
to begin with.

Took care
of a sickly parent 16 years

and bought a new outfit
and shoes --

presuming
I could get a sitter.

Andy, is she
disfigured or not?

She�s not disfigured.
She�s plain.

As far as that goes,
i�m not Tyrone power.

I�m not William Holden,
all right?

I�m not Randolph Scott.

Presuming the sitter,

would you do Gibson
the solid?

Would you think this
would be all right?

I would, yeah.

You would?

Does it feel okay to you?

Hey, don�t start
that touchy-feely crap.

Go ahead, Andy.

It�s okay.

All right.
Thanks for the advice.

Sure.

Thanks a lot.

A black man has been dragged
behind a pickup truck

however many miles

until the flesh is torn
from his body.

Finally,
he gets his skull crushed

against a bridge abutment.

Bias unit catches.

At the crime scene,
examining the body,

I note in what is left
of the pocket

of the d. O. A.�s pants,

there�s no folding money --
not a single dollar.

Given the context,
do I involve a precinct squad --

yours, say, lieutenant --

to investigate
the robbery angle?

Nobody affiliated
with the nine treys

advertises like this
to the cops.

The hate graffiti
is also a misdirect.

Excuse me.

You don�t show
enough respect for my time.

If I hadn�t notified you,

when I ran this case
for comstat,

you�d have been working
the room.

If you believe
that�s why you called me,

the next time you�re looking
in the mirror,

ask yourself why young Jones
had to be present.

He took the pictures.

I would have thought
after 18 months

in my unit, detective,

spotting such
an obvious misdirect

might have been something
you�d have picked up.

Deciding what weren�t
hate crimes

is part of our work, too,
lieutenant.

You did like
having the information

and being the one
to make that call.

You do know how to hide,
son, don�t you?

That�s all of this
i�m going to have.

Shall we go on
to something else?

Should I go in there?

And do what, Baldwin?

You don�t want
to be a witness.

You don�t need
to go in there

unless you�re trying
to keep them

from murdering each other.

What�s open?

Not the coffee room.

Not the coffee room?

I am not Mimi esquibel.

You answer to Mimi,
we think you�re her.

Well, i�m not,
and I hope you assholes

smack me around plenty.

Count on that being
just around the corner.

Good.
I�ll build up my I. R. A.

Who�s in the coffee room?

Lieutenant fancy

and my old boss
from the bias unit

got the door closed.

Frank discussion.

Real frank.

Stay out here till you hear
something breaking.

Come here.

Don�t you want to call me Mimi
in front of more witnesses?

Don�t you ever
hand me my overcoat

or call me into a case
just to embarrass me

in front of a subordinate.

There was hate graffiti
on the walls

of a homicide crime scene.

It was an appropriate
notification.

What the hell
is your problem?

I am not going
to be betrayed

as a race-pimping bureaucrat

or some j. Edgar hoover-
type fanatic.

Jones worked with you.
He formed his own opinions,

not to say you didn�t
embarrass yourself

harassing him
in that squad room.

Did it ever occur to you
that sending him over here,

I might have been trying
to look out for Jones?

I didn�t think he was ready

to be looking at the world
out of my window.

And you respond
by trying to marginalize

and ridicule me

in his eyes?

I wasn�t.

I�m going to ask you
to believe me about that.

Well, I can�t.

I don�t.

Maybe you�ve been
looking out that window

too long yourself.

There�s that
patronizing quality again.

Now that you�ve seen fit
to lug me into this,

i�ll expect to be copied
on the paperwork.

Sure.

Copies to lieutenant abner
on all your paperwork.

Yes, sir.

Laura krebs.

Laura krebs.

I mean, don�t you people
keep records of who�s who?

We�ve got a unit devoted
to photographs exclusively,

which occasionally
misplaces them.

Say you�re not Mimi esquibel.
Say you�re Florence Henderson.

If I was Florence Henderson,

i�d have known that guy
I was married to

on "the Brady bunch"
was a fruit.

What do you got for US

connected to Ricky guerrero
that is dead?

Like i�ll let go that easy
on this false arrest.

You�re not arrested.

Cuffs -- cuffs are the tip-off
you�re a collar.

I want $1,000
to tell you what I know.

Do you know
who killed Ricky?

I know where
Mimi esquibel is.

Got to be a speed freak.
They�re deluded with grandeur.

You want $1,000 to tell US
where a hooker strolls?

Do you know?

How about we give you
50 bucks and don�t explore

what warrants you�ve got
under your real name,

which would explain why
you answered to Mimi

when we came to your door?

All right.

Now we�re in business.

And I am not
a speed freak.

Minimum, you�re one of them
voluntary pukers.

I am naturally thin.

Yeah, that�s what
the Japanese said

about all our soldiers
marching from bataan.

Where do we find
the true Mimi?

When do I find
the true $50?

That�s the second part
of the transaction.

Come on. I�ll show you.

Drop me off.

And if mimi�s kid
was involved,

that asshole Ricky
provoked him.

Put a name on mimi�s kid.

Isaiah.

Now, he is sweet enough
to eat.

I�ve got to talk to him.

When he wants you
to know something, d.,

a boss tells you.

Then i�m about
to make a mistake,

�cause I need to ask
what went on

between him
and lieutenant abner.

You will not be
the first person in history

to ignore my advice.

Can we talk about that beef
with lieutenant abner?

�cause it�s really
got me turned around.

Close the door.

Turned around how?

I was trying to be clear

I didn�t feel
this was a hate crime.

With that kind
of graffiti on the walls,

i�d have been derelict
not having him sign off.

So you weren�t looking
to pick a fight with him?

I don�t know
too many motives

that don�t have
a little of this

and a little of that
thrown into it, Baldwin,

and lieutenant abner and I
have our disagreements,

but I wasn�t looking
for hell to break loose.

Now I need
to ask you something.

Okay.

How different

was lieutenant abner�s
behavior today

from how you�ve seen him
over the last 18 months?

Lieutenant abner�s never been
shy about his opinions.

I�m not asking
about his opinions.

I�m asking if his behavior
was different.

Yeah.

He seemed pretty high-strung.

That level of agitation
was uncharacteristic?

Yeah, i�d say so.

All right.
Thank you very much.

Are you concerned
for lieutenant abner, boss?

Thanks, Baldwin.

Some juncture, someone
better start telling me

what the hell
this is involving.

Is that genuine snakeskin?

I got to call
on this other thing --

this other situation.

You guys cops or spies?

Come on, Mimi.
Agent 99�s waiting for US.

Yeah, yeah,
it�s me -- sipowicz.

All right, here�s my conditions,
Eddie -- non-negotiable.

"A" -- dinner exclusively
with no movie option.

"B" -- is she amenable
to Italian food or so forth,

some kind of normal cuisine?

All right.

Tell her ciresi�s around 8:00
or so forth?

No, no, you tell her.

I don�t want
to talk on the phone.

Yeah, i�ll meet her fresh,

and you�ll tell her
how to recognize me, all right?

The guy in the restaurant

looking most
completely miserable.

You, got time
for a little trim later?

Certainly.

Or don�t you
think I need one?

Never any harm
in a buff-up.

It was that bitch Laura
giving me up, correct?

Incorrect.

No, no, it was her
because here you come,

and she materialized
the other side of the street,

all busy,
looking up at the sky

like there�s some
meteor shower.

It was her.

Ricky guerrero.

Just when I thought
I couldn�t feel any worse,

I have to hear that name.

You and Ricky on the outs?

Way past that --
for weeks.

I hope I never
see that face again.

That�s where i�m at
with Ricky guerrero.

Weeks since you saw
Ricky last?

Weeks, months --
a long, long time.

Not long enough, though,
that�s for sure.

Well, brace yourself, Mimi.
Ricky�s dead.

My god.

Are you serious?

Let the first shock wave pass.

I wouldn�t have said
those things about him.

May his soul rest in peace.

So, Mimi, about 20 witnesses

put you in and out
of that apartment

you and Ricky squatted at
till three days ago.

Also known as the day
Ricky bought it.

Whoever�s saying
it�s not weeks

since I laid eyes
on Ricky is on drugs.

Mimi, awake.

What the hell�s
that about?

That�s my partner trying
to bring you out

of your dopey trance

this murder�s falling
on anyone but you, Mimi.

You were the last one
seen leaving the apartment

and you hated ricky�s guts --
your words.

You expect me
to give up my son?

What�s been happening
all this time,

mimi�s been protecting
a loved one.

Isaiah and Ricky
were always at each other.

Over what?

Electronics and whatnot.

Like who invented
the light bulb?

If, like, Ricky was
continuously boosting

my son�s Nintendo --

supporting his Jones.

And was he?

I�m not taking a position
on that or any murder.

Alls i�m saying --
I last saw Ricky living

with a spike
in his accustomed arm.

Isaiah, Mimi, or you�re
wearing the bull�s-eye.

Does he have to know
it came from me?

We�ll avoid that if we can.

And can I go back to work?

Not till we bring him in.

But he don�t
have to see me.

Hey, Mimi, just so we keep

your deep mother�s love
in perspective,

suppose we give you
the choice

of him finding out
you gave him up

but you get to stroll out
of here and score,

or he never finds out
it was you

but you got to sit here
and Jones.

Building across the street
from ricky�s --

Shawn mcsomething-or-other.

Second floor, I think.

Giving up her son --

that�s a rotten choice
to force on a mother.

Shut your mouth.

Did your sources mention
any specific individuals

in the nine treys
who may have done this?

No, man.

Watch your man work.

And this is
strictly confidential.

Okay.

Witnesses
in ricky�s building

say he and your mother
were boyfriend-girlfriend.

Okay.

Based on your knowledge --
and this is critical --

could Ricky guerrero
have been affiliated

with a rival gang
of the nine treys?

Hell, yeah. Easily.

Okay,
that�s vital information.

You knew him pretty good
through contact

he had with your mom.

Yeah, I knew him.

You stayed at his apartment
when your mom did.

Occasionally maybe, yeah.

So, based on your experience,

what kind
of a person was he --

good guy, bad guy?

Yeah, he was an asshole,

unless he was passed out
or needed something from you.

I�m trying to build
what we call

a character composite,
Isaiah.

Give me an example

of how this Ricky
was an asshole.

Okay, well, I come home,
and ricky�s all,

"you�re not going
to believe it.

Somebody broke in
and stole all our stuff."

All my stuff
he�s talking about,

�cause he already
sold all his for drugs,

so I get a new TV
and Nintendo,

and the next week --

"you�re not going
to believe it."

You tell your mom about this
or handle it on your own?

No, I handled it.

You stand up to him
and confront Ricky

on him selling
your possessions.

How did he respond?

He denied it,
but he�s got this smile

like he�s trying
not to laugh

or like he don�t
take me seriously.

Which, obviously,
he doesn�t.

No, like, he never did.

I can go out

and I can round me up
a new system,

but before I do,
I want him to admit it --

to admit that he chumped me
and he sold them for drugs,

but he wouldn�t.

And then he called me a name

that I told him never
to call me again,

and he promised me
that he wouldn�t.

What�d he call you?

Jackass.

That set you off,
getting called jackass?

He got really mad
at me one night

and he called me that.

Said that it was the baby

of a male donkey
and a female horse,

and no one wanted it
when it was born,

not the horses
or the donkeys,

�cause it was useless
and stupid.

And then he said
that it was just like me

because my mom is puerto rican
and my dad�s black.

But then guess what I did.

What?

I went to the library
and looked it up,

and I went back to Ricky

and told him
that he�s so stupid --

that a jackass
is the same as a donkey.

It was a mule
that�s what had happened

when a donkey did a horse.

"So there, man.
How stupid are you?"

He just laughed at me
and he said,

"whatever you say, jackass."

And he kept calling you
jackass, right?

Whenever he was mad

or my mom wasn�t around.

When you had that fight
over him stealing your stuff,

he called you jackass again.

Then you shot him, Isaiah.

And then I said,
"call me a jackass now,"

and he didn�t.

He didn�t open
his mean ugly mouth

to say nothing.

And then I put the graffiti
on the wall.

Did you think it was real
when you saw it?

Yeah, absolutely.

I wish my mom was here,

even if it was her
gave me up.

That�s a good interview.

He learned how to do that
from you.

I appreciate this, Arthur.

This was a generous gesture.

Why don�t we get together
for lunch this week,

pat me on the back?

Excuse me.

Jones was probably the first
adult African-American male

that made that boy feel
like he gave a damn...

And he was doing it
to get a confession.

So many lost.

So many lost.

You tell Jones good work.

You want to tell him?

No, no,
you have to tell him,

and tell him how
he can help that boy

with his confession

so it doesn�t go
so bad with him.

All right.

The boy who couldn�t stand
being called jackass.

Yeah, I know.

You know how
you get trapped

doing favors for friends?

That�s this.

I am cornered
like an alley rat

with the homely
stood-up niece

of Eddie Gibson.

You want to see

a humiliating amount of sweat
on a person�s forehead?

You watch me dine
with a stranger.

Anyways, ciresi�s does
a nice enough job,

and 9:15 i�ll be home,
9:30 at the latest.

The movie
I ruled out totally.

You know,
I don�t need to carry

the conversational ball here
on every play.

We�re done.

Or do you think
i�m making a mistake?

No, I don�t.

I think she�d be glad.

Hey, some interview, d.

Thanks, Greg.

Did you know
your old boss was watching?

No.

I was thinking maybe
it was your initiative

that prevailed on the boss
to Bury the hatchet.

No, I didn�t know
he was there.

Well, for what
it�s worth, d.,

I heard him say,
"good interview" --

abner.

Thanks.

You want to walk out
with me?

People will think
i�m your trainer.

No, you go ahead.

Yeah, all right. Night.

Good night.

The old boss
watched your interview.

He was proud of how
you handled yourself.

Sit down.

You say you�re worried
someone in this job

may be a danger
to himself.

A phone call to the early
intervention unit,

you better know
what you�re doing

to that person�s career.

They come take his gun
till they check him out,

and he has
a shadow over him

for the rest
of his time on the job.

You better know
what you�re doing.

Yeah.
Good night, Baldwin.

Good night.

He told me to be sure
to tell you he was proud.

Maybe I can call him
and tell him thanks.

Do that.

That�s a good idea.

Thanks.

I got to take care
of my ducks.

All done, Theo.

Aunt katie�s giving you
a good bath, son?

She picked my nose
with the washcloth.

Yeah, and I found
potatoes in there.

Ha ha.

Where i�ll be.

Thank you.

Where are you going
to be, daddy?

Daddy�s going out
for dinner.

Is it some
retirement racket?

This guy Eddie Gibson.

When I get back,
i�m asking your fishes,

did you tell them
good night by name?

Okay, daddy, I will.

I think I remember
Eddie Gibson.

He�s retiring?

I couldn�t begin
to explain it all to you,

what he asked me to do,
is how complicated it is.

I got four ducks
in the bath.

Let�s drop it, all right?

All right.

Anyways, i�ll try
not to be too late.

All right, Andy.

I promise
I won�t be, okay?

See you, squirt.

Daddy promises.

I heard him, baby.

You must be Andy.

How do you do?

I�m Cynthia.

How do you do?

I hope you weren�t
waiting long.

The cab driver couldn�t
find the restaurant.

How many tongues
you go through

trying to make him
understand?

Calamari�s good here, f.Y.I.

It was very nice of you
to fill in

on such short notice.

Don�t worry about it.

I�m afraid to think
what kind of pressure

my uncle Eddie
put on you.

Every cop keeps
a set of thumbscrews

just for this type situation.

Calamari�s one
of the specialties here,

if you like squid.

We can call this off, Andy.

I�ll go book shopping,
and you can do

whatever you really wanted
to do tonight,

and we�ll tell uncle Eddie
we had a good time

so he doesn�t feel bad.

Hey, put that out
of your mind.

No, really,
I enjoy book shopping,

and, um...

I�m not really that hungry.

"A" -- if i�m making
you uncomfortable,

don�t take that personal.

I haven�t been out to dinner

with circumstances like this
in a long time.

Plus when you�re not hungry,

that�s when
you�re supposed to eat

so you don�t overfill.

My little guy
is going to be asleep,

so at this juncture,

alls you�d be
keeping me from

is falling asleep
watching the news.

Okay, Andy.

Okay?

How�s their calamari here?

Hi.

How is he?

Fine.

He went to sleep
all right?

He was asleep by 8:30.

Anyways, thanks very much.

It�s all right.

You seem disturbed.

My feelings are hurt, Andy,
that you lied to me,

but that�s my problem
to deal with.

What was my lie
you�re saying I told you?

All right, I apologize.

As a favor to Eddie Gibson,

I took Eddie gibson�s niece
to dinner.

I don�t need to know that,
but I accept your apology.

I felt awkward.

I understand, Andy.

Something you could
misunderstand my motives on.

I understand.

Katie...

Hurting your feelings

is the last thing I want
in the world.

But sometimes
it has to happen,

but lying is hurtful
and it makes you angry,

and Theo heard it.

I�m sorry.

It�s all right.
You have to live.

I�ll try
and be more truthful,

then he won�t hear me angry.

I wished you�d dated me.

That�s my part in it.
I wished you�d dated me.
