All language subtitles for NYPD Blue (1993) - S09E04 - Hit the Road, Clark (1080p HULU WEB-DL x265 LION)

Previously on "NYPD blue"...

You�ve all met John Clark.
He�s been assigned to our squad.

I�m sure you�ll make him
feel at home.

Welcome aboard.

Thanks.

Clark: I know it�s a tough day.

Andy.

Sorry about missing
the funeral.

How�d it go?

How�d it go?
They buried him.

Eddie: You Clark?

Eddie Gibson.

I read about you
in the paper.

Who you working with?

Connie mcdowell and Andy.
Is that so?

Yeah, I figure
work with your kid,

maybe you and me
get to hang out.

What�d you get?

It�s a possible break-in,

but the husband�s alibi
doesn�t check.

Tell me about the husband.

You figure you were gonna clear
this case on your own?!

What are you talking about?!

Gilmore at t. A. R. U. Says
detective Clark

called telephone security
on our phone dump!

I never called anyone!

Man.

Boss, this is on me.

My dad asked me about the case,
and I told him.

But not in a million years
did I think he would --

it was me who screwed up.

I won�t have this
in my squad.

What�s the problem?
You�re not a drunk.

I won�t let him
turn you into one.

Get out of here, Clark.

Shut your mouth.

If your kid wants to follow,
he will, but you leave now.

Shut up,
you miserable drunk.

You gotta go now.

Get away from me, John.

Dad, just go.
We�ll talk at home.

Johnny on the spot.

Yeah, I was up anyway.
Got some coffees over there.

Employee of the month --
you got my vote.

She a pros?

It looks like it.

Hispanic, three shots to
the head, small caliber.

Any I. D.?

Just a necklace
and a leather jacket.

Crime scene should
be here in an hour.

Hasn�t been here
too long.

No more than a day.

Nothing to canvass, I guess.

Still, you and Baldwin
take a walk around.

See if there�s a park building
or construction workers.

All right.

She�s got a unicorn tattoo
on her back,

so i�ve got vice running it
through their database.

This situation
with your old man --

I got it taken care of.

So he�s not gonna be coming
around the squad anymore,

let alone interfering
with cases.

Hey, I worked
with your old man?

He�s not the type
to walk away from things.

He�s walking away from this
�cause we hashed it out,

and yesterday --
it�s not gonna happen again.

Come here.

Instead of everybody
getting all aggravated,

why don�t you go work
with your dad up in the Bronx?

They got crimes
up there, too.

�cause this is where I want
to work, and i�m ready.

If you don�t want to partner up
with me because of my dad

or some other reason

that don�t have anything to do
with what kind of cop I am,

then just make the call,
all right?

Just get it over with.

Talk to anybody
in any command I worked for.

Ask them how I do my job.
Look at my arrest record.

I built up solid informants
in this precinct.

And I never been

in front of the civilian
complaint review board.

You never put your
hands on a guy?

No, nobody who didn�t
know they deserved it.

I�ll have your back
on the streets, you know that.

I don�t come
dragging into work.

If you don�t type good,
i�ll take care of the fives.

I show up every day,

and I want to learn
how you do it.

So what do you want to do?

All right.

All right.

Got it. Thanks.

How you doing, Eddie?

Fine, lieutenant.

Primed and ready
to get back on the chart.

I was just on the phone
with captain o�leary.

Me and Timmy go way back.
We were cops together.

That�s what he said.

Me and him been in the emerald
society since we got on the job.

Great guy, great captain.

You�re assigned
to my squad now.

Yes, I am,
and i�m absolutely ready

to bring my 28 years
experience along with me.

I look forward
to working with you.
I�ve heard nothing but...

Haven�t heard one
bad thing about you.

If I don�t know this job
by now, after 28 years,

i�ll never know it,
am I right?

I hear you.

So, why the change?

You were on night watch
the last 10 years, right?

Actually, 12,
and I enjoyed my time there

�cause it gave me more time
with my family,

and New York City at night --
no need for explanation there.
Sure, sure.

But i�m third grade still,

and we both know you
don�t get a grade bump
working night watch.

So, I put in the work
like everybody else.

Why shouldn�t I reap
maximum benefits?

I gotta build up
my pension, right?

Well, that�s as good
a reason as any, I guess.

Well, we got a doa.

Right out of the gates.
Let�s do it.

I�ll put you with mcdowell.

The blonde?
Yeah.

Lead the way.

Okay, thanks.

They just I. D.�d the prints
on that dump job.

Comes back to a correction
officer at rikers --

Linda velez.

Andy said it looked
like a dead pros.

Apparently not.

Where are they?

On their way back.

Have them respond to rikers
and interview her co-workers.

We got another doa.
Okay.

You know Eddie Gibson.

Sure, from night watch.

Formerly.

Eddie�s been assigned
here now.

Great.

You two take it.
I gotta notify the borough.

Eddie.
Lieutenant.

If it�s all the same with you,
I spent five years in highway,

so I know my way
around a steering wheel.

You can drive if you want.

Here we go.

Here�s his file --

Dario Jenkins.

What was his beef
with Linda?

Linda found a joint
in his bunk.

But apparently Dario felt she
dissed him in front of his crew.

I don�t know, I never got
the whole story,

but it escalated, he assaulted
her, said he was gonna kill her.

That got him
an extra six months.

Right away
I took her off the tiers

and put her in administration.

And he was released
a month ago?
Yeah.

He�s the only prisoner I can
think of who�d do something.

I sent her home with a police
radio since he got out.

How was Linda otherwise?

She was a competent officer.

How about personally?

I don�t know how much I can
really give you on that.

Well, give it a shot.

Linda was a little...Odd.

A little odd? What are we
supposed to do with that?

There was no behavior that
warranted my intervention

or anything that
interfered with her job.

We�re investigating
her murder.

I�m aware of that.

So don�t filter information
through your job.

Let�s concentrate
on ours right now.

The only thing I know that may
have to do with who killed her

is Dario Jenkins.

So, basically,
you�re covering your ass

in the event
of any civil litigation.

I�m not saying I don�t have a
responsibility to my department.

Thanks.

I hope you guys are gonna do
the right thing and treat this

like a law-enforcement officer
being killed, which she was.

Baldwin:
Well, as luck would have it,

our responsibility
to our department

is to try to solve
every case we catch.

Thanks for your help.

No hurry.

Just a murdered colleague.

So you worked it out
with your old man

is what you�re telling me.

Yeah. Yeah,
we worked it out.

�cause no matter what,

you�re always gonna
have him as a dad, right,

and you may not always
be a detective.

That�s true.

Wanna really piss
these people off?

Call �em guards.
They�ll give you --

god�s up in heaven.
We�re officers here.

Yeah. Exactly.

Detectives sipowicz, Clark.

Officer Campos.

We�re sorry
about your friend.

Yeah, I am, too.

You know her long?

About a year --
ever since she�s worked here.

You friends outside of work?

Not too much,
but we were tight, you know?

There�s only a couple
of female officers.

You worked a shift
with Linda yesterday?
Yeah.

She say what her plans
were last night?

It was her birthday.

I didn�t even know
until she told me.

She was going over
to some guy javier�s place --

Javier Lopez.

Javier her boyfriend?

She thought so.

Sounded like
he was playing her.

They fight a lot?

From what she said, yeah --

mostly about her
wanting to be serious

and him just wanting sex,
but would he have killed her?

I don�t know.

There are a lot of guys
in here for murder

that I would�ve
never thought could do it.

She seeing any other guys?

She hooked up here and there,
I guess, but I don�t know who.

She have a second job?

She volunteered
at some animal rescue.

She would always do
weird stuff like that.

Like what else,
other than saving animals?

Like she�d always
be on some crazy diet,

and she�d do it full on
and then just stop cold,

and then,
a couple weeks later,

she wanted to be
a massage therapist,

so she started
taking a course.

But then she really
got into ice skating

and took some lessons
for a while,

and then she
was into religion
for a hot minute.

She was a trip,

but she was a good person,
and she did her job,

and she sure as hell
didn�t deserve this.

What do you got?

Blunt object and strangled.

I.d.?

Sandy wessner.

Anybody else live here?

Kid�s room.
No kid, though.

Who called it in?

Neighbor lady
down the hall.

She�s in her apartment.

I�ll get that.

Okay.

Which apartment?

Officer: I�ll show you.

Gibson: Pam departo.

Pam here used to check in
on the doa pretty regular --

has a key.

Sandy has m. S. --

getting a lot better,
but I still check in on her.

When did you see her last?

Last night.
She ducked her head in.

She see anybody
come or go?

You see anybody come or go?

No.

My god.

It�s starting to hit me now.

Did Sandy have children?

A daughter -- Janie.

Janie at school?

Yeah, I guess so.

She stays mostly with sandy�s
mother �cause of the m. S.

Any men in her life?

Her ex-husband Roy...

But they been separated
now over a year.

He still come around?

Not much.
It�s been better for Sandy.

Because...?
Well, they fought a lot.

They both drank a lot, and...

But i�m not saying --

no. No, no.
We�re just asking.

A Roy wessner?

Yeah. Look, I-I gotta go.

Thank you, miss departo.

Let�s go find this ex-husband.

I�m thinking maybe we should
do a quick canvass first,

see if anybody saw anything
last night.

We can do that, sure.

Great.

Come here.

Look, I know there�s
a lot of guys on this job

don�t like partnering up
with women.

But I worked with some dynamite
broads through the years,

so don�t you even think twice
about where i�m coming from.

I won�t even think twice.

If any physical stuff comes in,
don�t worry, i�ll handle it.

Wow.

I don�t know what to say.

...thanks.

A good friend of mine
owns this Irish pub

on the lower east side --
a lot of trouble in the joint,

so he likes having
cops around --

we can get lunch on the arm
over there today no problem.

Great corned beef.

In here.

Sit down, Javier.

Linda velez -- you know her?

Yeah.

When�s the last time
you saw her?

Last night she came by
my apartment.

What for?

To get laid. What�d she say?

What happened at your
apartment with Linda?

She comes knocking on my door,
won�t go away,

singing my name out, so,
finally, I open up.

She�s wearing this leather
coat...And not much else.

Got a bottle of champagne
in her hand.

I tell her, "come back
some other time."

Is that how you left it?

Yeah, until she comes
walking back crying,

carrying on about how it�s
her 30th birthday

and how she wants to spend
this special night with me.

It ain�t happening.
Then she left.

She say where
she was going?

No, and I didn�t ask.

She come back?
No.

What�d you do after she left?

I handled my business.
I had company.

Who?

This girl I picked up
at happy hour.

She was in my bedroom
when Linda came over,

and I didn�t want Linda
to come inside.

I didn�t want her
to see that.

Big of you.

What was her name?
Gina, I think.

You get her number?
She took mine.

You better hope she
calls, Javier.

What�s going on?

Linda�s been murdered.

No way, man.

No way I got anything to do
with something like that.

Can anybody aside
from your mystery hump

vouch for your
whereabouts last night?

Nah, man.

After she left,
I was watching TV.

Maybe check
with the cable company.

Maybe they keep records

of what you�re watching
when you�re watching it.

That�s good, Javier.

And while we�re at it,
we�ll double-check,

make sure the moon�s
not made of cheese for you.

Doa�s watch was broken
at the scene.

Lab verified
the watch was working
until the crystal broke.

So what was the time
of the attack?

8:45 a. M., lieu.

You locate her ex?

Still looking.

But the doa�s mom�s
on her way in.

We�ll see
what she knows.

She heard yet?

Yeah, neighbor
broke the news.

What?

They found her car.
The gal from rikers.

All right, let�s go.

This idiot in the pokey,

get somebody from anticrime
to sit on him.

We like him?
He�s a contender.

The prisoner who
had a beef with our doa,

he took a collar
in Jersey two weeks ago.

They verified he�s still in.

Andy!
I�m assigned here now!

How?

Lieu here
says you been slacking.

Needed me to come in
and remind you how it�s done.

I can�t deal with this now.

Go, get outta here.

Welcome aboard, Eddie.
Thanks, kid.

Blood on the driver�s seat.
This is where she got it.

"From zero to bitch
in 3.5 seconds."

"Save the trees --
wipe your butt with an owl."

What the hell
are you talking about?

Bumper stickers.

Pathetic.

There�s a tall boy.

Crime scene
been notified yet?
They�re on the way.

You don�t see that many
bumper stickers anymore.

What are the pictures of?

A cat.

What, the whole roll?

Same cat.

Hey, Andy,
pop the trunk, will you?
Yeah.

What do they pay correction
officers these days?

Enough so you don�t
have to hoard aluminum cans.

That�s just being
environmentally conscious.

Some people
would applaud that.

Here�s a store receipt
from last night --

a couple of digits,
but the name�s blurred.

That�s enough to put
into the computer,
get the store.

I�ll call John,
have him do it.

Get homicide down here
to help with the canvass.

Why don�t you check
with the sector car
from last night?

See if they had
any radio runs.

You have a feeling this chick
wasn�t playing with a full deck?

That�s not our department.
Just check with the sector car.

Hey, guys...

You the owner?

Yeah.

You working here last night?

I work here every night.
I own the place.

You remember a hispanic woman,
leather coat?

She come in here to buy
a tall boy about 11:15.

What does she look like?

Like this.

She dead?

She�s taking a face-first nap
in the middle of a vacant lot.

I don�t know nothing
about it.

Well, there�s a receipt
in her car from this bodega
last night for a can of beer.

Hey, this is a murder
investigation.

Don�t get yourself
in the middle of it.

She was parked out front.

Who bought the beer?

This neighborhood guy.

He comes in, he says
there�s a girl outside

wearing nothing
but a leather coat,

and she wants to party,
and do I want in on it.

Did you?

No, man. I got a wife upstairs.
I got a business to run here.

But I did go outside

just to make sure the guy
was telling the truth

about her being naked
underneath the coat.

He wasn�t lying.

What happened after you
declined the hump?

I came back inside the store

and I think I saw him get
in the car with another guy

and drive off.

What�s the guy�s name
who bought the beer?

I don�t know. Black guy.

He come in a lot?

Yeah, all the time --

beer, smokes,
lottery tickets.

We�re gonna figure out a system
for you to I. D. Him for US

when he comes in the store.

No way, man.
No way?

All you have to do is let US
know when it�s him.

We�ll grab him up
outside the store.

He�ll never know you
had anything to do with it.

I gotta think
about this, man.

If I come behind that counter,

how many things am I gonna find
that you ain�t supposed to have?

Hey, I can�t protect myself?

Okay, what�s your name?

Ramun de jesks --

ramun, things
are about to get ugly...

For you.

Okay, but you grab him
away from my store.

Notify Jones and medavoy.

Let them know
we need to set up.

All right.

Detective mcdowell
or Gibson?

Mrs. Folander?
Yeah.

Come on in.

Can we get you
something to drink?

No, i�m fine.

So, I guess your daughter�s
neighbor already told you?

Yeah.
We�re very sorry.

You didn�t do it.
No, ma�am.

Still,
it must be very hard.

I�ve cried so many tears --
things she went through

you wouldn�t wish
on your worst enemy.

I�m just, drained.

I�m numb.

When did you see Sandy last?

Couple of days ago.

I brought Janie by.

When did you
talk to her last?

Then. You got anything
on who might�ve done this?

We�re just starting out
our investigation.

Actually, we�re trying to find
sandy�s ex-husband, Roy.

Roy.

Do you know
where we can find him?

Produce section of this
market gerety and sons.

At least, he was a couple
of weeks ago.

What was their relationship
like -- Roy and sandy�s?

Rock and a hard place,

with my granddaughter
in the middle.

We pulled his record,
and there are some incidents

where police responded
and Roy was arrested.

Yeah.

Did they fight a lot?

Every chance they got.
Roy is a mean drunk.

He says he quit,

but he�s about as honest
as a two-peckered politician.

Sounds like a real peach.

You don�t even know.

Any other men
in sandy�s life?

I doubt it.

M.s., alcoholic, unemployed --
she wasn�t exactly a catch.

Anybody Sandy
was afraid of?

She mention anyone
like that to you?

Herself.

So, I heard there was a little
fracas at mac�s last night.

Sorry I missed it.

It was nothing.

Heard Andy threw a few
at the new kid�s dad.

You might wanna
check your sources.

Come on -- did he?

Roy wessner?

Yeah.

Detective mcdowell...
Gibson.

This what I think it is?

You want odds?

I�m not paying child support

if I can�t see
my damn child.

Will you please
hear me out first?

Sure.

I tried to get custody
when Sandy got too sick,

but no --
sandy�s mom gets Janie

�cause i�m the no-good asshole

that left Sandy
�cause she had m. S.,

which is a lie.

It was sandy�s drinking and
depression that drove me out.

The judge doesn�t
wanna hear my side.

Now i�m supposed
to chip in with the bills?

When�s the last time
you saw Sandy?

Couple months.
I came by for dinner.

That�s the only way I get
to see my little girl --

on the sly.

You stop by sandy�s
this morning?

No.

Where were you?

Loading the truck.
What�s with the questions?

Who was with you?

Nobody -- by myself.
What are you guys here for?

Sandy�s dead.

We�re sorry.

S-She have a seizure
or something?

She was murdered, pal.
What?

Yeah, and you�re gonna
have to come in with US.

You think I killed her?

We�re not saying that,

but, you gotta come in
until we sort this out.

Are you kiddin� me?
From where we�re standing,

you got a history
of beating her.

Those were slaps to get her
to quit beating on me.

You can�t verify
where you were this morning.

This is unbelievable.
I�m gonna lose my job.

If you didn�t do this --
I didn�t.

Then we�ll personally vouch
for you with your boss.

Am I -- am I
getting cuffed here?

If it stays friendly, no.

I don�t like getting cuffed.

Then keep it friendly.
Let�s go.

Testing, 1, 2, 3 --
you there still or what?

This guy.

Hey, listen,
I been thinking, --
don�t think.

Instead of me saying what
he�s wearing when he leaves,

i�ll give you a head start
and say, "want some jerky?"

While he�s still
in the store. You got that?

We got Jimmy Olsen now.

You still out there or what?
Honk your horn or something.

If he blows this,

your job is to keep him 15
feet from me at all times.

I�ll see what I can do.

We gonna get some
of these lotto tickets.

Woman: You better make sure
you get the right ones.

Yo, ramun! Give me
10 of those scratchy
lotto tickets.

What�s up, ramun?

Stayin� low.

Want some jerky?

Here we go.

No, you have to pay
for it.

You smoking rock now or
something?

Later, ramun.

Jerky! Jerky!
Number 67 -- red shirt,

black pants.
You out there?!

Jones, medavoy,
move in -- go, go!

You know what?
You keep...

What?

Let me just do my thing,
all right,

the way I do my thing.

What the hell y�all doin�...

My god!!

Get in the car.

Shut your mouth!
Call the cops!

Police! Somebody
kidnapped my boyfriend!

Police!

What have you got?

Phone dump came back
from sandy�s apartment.

There were three calls in
and two calls out this morning,

all to and from
the same number.

Run that number
through the calls directory.

I did. It�s sandy�s
mom�s apartment.

She said she hadn�t
talked to Sandy

since she saw her
a couple days ago, right?

Right.
I�m gonna have her come in.

There you go.

Keep me posted on that.

I�m still waiting
on an explanation

why y�all couldn�t come talk
to me like a human being

instead of treating me
like a damn bag of laundry.

Linda velez.

Don�t know her.

Hispanic, leather trench
coat, naked underneath.

What�s she saying now?

She�s a little unhappy
with what happened last night.

What�s she saying -- rape?
Well, it was her idea.

She called me
up to the car.

She opened her coat
and showed me her naked ass.

She had the champagne.

What is she saying to you?

How was it her idea?

She rolls up,
says, "let�s go."

I mean, it was like it
was too good to be true.

And just in case it was,

I said, "can I bring
somebody else?"

So I run in
and asked the bodega guy,

and he says no,

and then I see my boy Gerald
coming up the street.

And, hell, gerald�s
down for anything.

And that�s it.

Where�d you have sex?

At my grandma�s.
She�s nearby.

Was your grandma home?

Yeah, but she don�t
wake up for nothing.

How did you leave it?
Walked outside.

Gerald asked her for a ride,
and she gave it to him.

I walked over
to my girlfriend�s spot.

What�s gerald�s last name?

What is this bitch saying?

She wanted it,
and we gave it to her.

And we didn�t hear no complaints
out of her last night.

Trust me, me and Gerald
didn�t do nothing wrong.

One of you did.

Damn.

Gerald�s last name?

Damn.

His last name,
or this falls on you!

Winters --

Gerald winters.

Write down his places.

Thanks for coming back,
Mrs. Folander.

I haven�t got a sitter, so if
you could make it quick --

absolutely.

Come on, Janie.

Actually...

Just a sec.

We�ll be talking about
details of sandy�s death,

and I don�t know if it�s
something Janie should hear.

She can wait right here.

Our p. A. A., John,
will keep an eye on her.

She�ll be fine, ma�am.

I promise.

Okay.

You sit right here...
With John.

Okay, sweetheart?

Okay.
Okay.

Where?

Right this way.

Eddie,
I gotta take care

of that thing real quick.
I�ll be right in.

John: How are you?

My mom went to heaven.

I heard.

I�m very sorry.

Hi, Janie.

I�m Connie.

Hi.

Do you want a soda
or something?

I�m supposed
to stay here with John.

He�ll come with US.

Come on.

So, Janie...

How long have you
lived with your grandma?

I don�t know.

Well, I guess you had to,

�cause your mom�s
been sick?

She has multiple sclerosis.

Did your mom want you
to move back in with her?

But your grandma really
wanted you to stay with her

�cause...she loves you
so much?

Were you with your grandma
this morning?

She take you to school?

We went to my mom�s house
first, but she wasn�t home.

So... you and your
grandma went

to your mom�s house
first and then to school?

Did you go with your grandma
to see if your mom was home,

or did you stay in the car?

I stayed in the car.

She�s in heaven now.

I know she is.

I know.

She�s not sick anymore,
she�s happy,

and she�s looking down
on you right now.

John�s gonna stay in here
with you now, okay?

Okay.

Is Janie all right?

She�s fine.

This is what we know,
Mrs. Folander...

You went to your daughter�s
house this morning,

and something went wrong.

You didn�t mean it to,
which is important,

because then it
wasn�t premeditated.

What is this?

You need to tell US
what happened,

because if you don�t
and force this to trial,

they�re gonna put Janie
on the stand

and make her testify
to everything,

including how she waited in
the car while you went up --

you talked to her?

Don�t put your
granddaughter through this.

Don�t traumatize her more
than she already has been.

Tell US what happened.

We�ll do everything we
can to help you

and protect Janie.

You don�t know the hell
that I went through

with my daughter.

You�re right. We don�t.

So tell US.

She wasn�t fit to live,
let alone raise a child.

She told me she
wasn�t fit to live --

that she wanted to die.

Did she want to die

when you went over there
this morning?

Or was that more
about what you wanted?

She didn�t know
what she was doing.

Janie wanted to stay
with me.

She�d cry in the car every
time she had to go back.

Sandy got the court order
just so she wouldn�t be alone.

I convinced her yesterday
not to go through with it.

Then she called me
this morning

and said that she�d
changed her mind.

Which you weren�t up for.

So I-I went over there,

and I-I begged her...

Not to ruin
this little girl�s life,

or move in with US.

But no!

And as a mother...

To both of them,
I had to make a choice.

And so I did.

And that�s not ruining
this little girl�s life?

Don�t you judge me.

I�m not, ma�am.

They got someone
who�ll do that later.

Whatever.

Whatever, man. Whatever.

Get these cuffs off me --

why don�t you shut up?

Take a seat.

Sit down.

What happened last night?

Nothing happened, man.

Hey, you�re in here
for a reason, Gerald.

We didn�t pick you
random off the street.

Her name was Linda velez,

in case nobody bothered
with introductions.

We got witnesses saw you
and Jermaine

take her into grandma�s
apartment.

And we got witnesses saw you
and Linda leave in her car.

Witnesses like what?
Jermaine?

You got bigger problems
than who saw you do it.

Man, listen, look, I had
a good time, all right?

All I wanted was a ride to
the party I was on my way to

before she scooped me
and Jermaine up

and put US every which way
but on her head.

What happened after that
is all on that crazy, yo.
Nobody else.

You�re talking
about a New York City
corrections officer,

so watch your mouth.

Okay, okay.

Let me tell you
what happened, then.

She pulled a gun on me.

Yeah -- a gun.

So guess who went
into survival mode?

Me.

Why would she pull a gun
on you, Gerald?

I don�t know.
We�re driving down the block,

talking about this club,
ballistics, we�ve both been to,

when out of the blue,
she just starts flipping,

like, "where�s my gold
necklace?"

Hell if I know.
I ain�t take it.

So then she pulls over,
yanks a gun out on my ass.

Put it right in my face.

So I said, "this necklace
that you were worried about

is right around your neck."

So then she feels it,
calms down, lowers the gun,

starts talking
about ballistics again

like nothing even happened.

Bitch was crazy.

Just stick to what
happened

and leave your opinions
of her out of it.

So i�m looking at this gun.
It�s in her lap.

I�ve never seen a gun
like that before --

no hammer on it.
It�s an ill gun.

So I told her i�d give her
100 for it.

She said nah, she needed it
for the job,

which I ain�t know meant
"corrections officer."

So I told her,
"pretend like you lost it."

She said she couldn�t do it.

She�d get a 10-day rip for it,
whatever the hell that meant.

She put it back
in her pocket.

She starts staring
out the window,

all spaced-out like.

That�s when
I pulled out my gun,

shot her three times
in the head.

So you could take her gun?

I ended up
taking the gun, yeah.

Where is it?
At my apartment.

Where�s yours?

It�s with it. Look, I didn�t
know that she was an officer.

It�s all right to kill her
if she wasn�t?

She pulled a gun out on me!

Was she pointing a gun
at you when you shot her?

Come on, it�s real simple.

In my book,
you don�t pull a gun

on somebody you�re
not prepared to shoot.

Was she pointing the gun
at you when you shot her?!

No, but she had it
in my face up until then!

And like I said,

you pull out a gun,
that�s saying something to me.

And it don�t say nothing

that they put it back
in their pocket?!

We�re talking about
up in Harlem world, man.

You pull a gun on somebody,
there�s consequences.

That�s how it goes.

Yeah?

Well, you�re gonna learn
about some consequences.

I don�t know.

Come on.

What is it you don�t know?

How much she�s responsible
for getting herself killed.

You feel he shot her
in self-defense?

No.

Did he have an alternative

when she put the gun
back in her pocket?

Someone could argue that
he might have thought

she was gonna
pull her gun out again.

We just interviewed him.
He didn�t say that.

Things people have
been saying about her --

the defense attorney�s
gonna claim she was crazy.

What are we gonna say?

That�s assuming we put
all that in the fives.

Listen, this is your case.

When you type it up,
it�ll say,

"in the company of
detective Andy sipowicz."

You get called to testify
when it goes to trial,

so you gotta make
the decision that sits right.

But I am telling you
right now,

if you put in
all these opinions

about how people thought
maybe she was half wacky,

this guy walks.

I don�t care if she stood
around with a candle in her hand

calling herself
the statue of Liberty,

she put her gun away.

Her animosity was gone,
and he was out of danger.

But he went ahead
and he shot her for her gun,

which he took.

So you gotta decide.

I need to think about it.

Did he go?

Yeah.
Yeah, he, --

he killed her
for her service revolver.

He wanted to buy it.
She declined.

She showed it to him,
or he found it?

It�s junior�s case.
Let him run the specifics.

You taking the mother
to central booking?

Gibson�s still
processing her downstairs.

We...flipped for it.

What�s he doing
out of night watch?

He�s on day tour now,
like he�s got a right to do.

And he didn�t get
bounced out of there?

Nope. And I asked around.

Great. We got one guy
in diapers,

the other one in depends.

If you like,
i�ll take Clark,

and you can partner
with Eddie.

If I have to partner with that
stiff, i�ll kill myself.

You okay with Gibson for now?
It�s not like we got a choice.

Sure.

But you owe me.

Least you won�t
have to pay for a meal.

Where�s the grandkid?

John irvin�s with her
up in the crib.

Boss...i�ll be back in
a little bit if that�s okay.

Yeah. What do you wanna do
with the girl?

Connie: We ran the dad.

No record other
than the two domestics.

He got a job.

He�s got genuine concern
for his daughter.

Court records show he tried
repeatedly to get her back.

Your call.

I think we should
put them back together.

Do it.

And let the bureau
of child services know.

Where�s Clark going?

Hopefully not to run
this case by his old man.

Thanks for meeting me.

Is there a break
in the case?

We�ve got somebody
that we�re looking at.

And it�s not the guy
that she was seeing.

He had nothing to do
with it.

I wanted to talk some more
about Linda --

her personality.
Okay.

Things that people who
knew her have said, --

well, it�s painted a picture

of someone who
was maybe a little...Off.

That�s got something to do
with how she died?

Well, we got a "he said,
she said" thing going on.

Okay.

Did Linda...Ever blow up,

like lose her temper
for no reason?

She could get bitchy
with people sometimes,

but nothing
out of the ordinary.

Were you ever afraid of her?
No.

Anybody you know
ever afraid of her?
No.

She ever threaten anybody?

Not that I know of.

Did she ever say anything
about being overwhelmed?

You mean like --
like suicidal?

Yeah.

No.

Not to say she didn�t get
really dark moods sometimes.

Did she ever seek any help,
talk to someone?

That was the thing people
would say about her --

that maybe she
should get some help.

But no one ever
suggested it to her?

That�s a big thing,
telling someone that.

I mean, this is someone
who held a job,

paid her rent.

It comes down to it,

you just gotta let people
live their lives.

Thanks for your help.

So what was
the "he said" part

about why she got killed?

It�s looking like
maybe it was a robbery.

I�m sorry.

She pulled her gun on him?

Yeah. She thought he stole
her necklace,

but it got resolved
when she put it back
in her coat.

So he wasn�t in imminent
danger when he shot her?

No.

Anything to explain
what she was doing

out in a leather trench
banging guys off the street?

Upset with getting dumped
by this guy she was seeing,

it looks like.

Took it hard, didn�t she?

Anything else I need to know
that isn�t in the statement?

No, it�s all in there.

Write it up...

And i�ll
take it from there.

Will do.

So you�re okay with this?

Yeah...i�m fine.

My wife call?

No. Where�s Connie?

I got her gassing up
the car.

You what?

All those arson fires --
the smell of gas --

I don�t care for filling up.

And she does?

She didn�t seem upset
when I told her to do it.

You told her?

Boy, you got some balls.

Mr. Female sensitivity
over here!

Gibson, you�re
gonna work here,

you gotta pull your own.
This ain�t the vampire squad

where you can
sleep half the tour.

Thank you, first-grade
detective Andy sipowicz,

for informing lowly me

how to work properly
in the squad.

Is that what this
is all about?

Me making first grade?

No, but you got a problem
with me trying to move up?

I got a problem with you
being a pain-in-the-ass loafer.

When you were on night watch,
I could take you for 15
minutes a week.

But working
in our slot�s different.

You better rise
to the occasion.

Maybe you didn�t hear
I cleared a homicide today.

You cleared it?

I�d like to know
what you did on that case.

And I set my niece up
with this guy.

How crazy am I?

You okay with the fives?

Got it.

The thing that really pisses
me off about Andy --

whoa.

Wrong guy, Eddie.
You got the wrong guy.

I don�t wanna hear about it.

This is how we roll

with sportscenter
with Dan Patrick...

Hi, pop.

I don�t know if you heard

about the corrections
officer at rikers,

but we caught it.

What�s -- what�s going on?

What�s with the bags?

You�re such a great
detective already,

i�m sure you can
figure it out.

Are you kidding me?

It�s time you left.

You know, i�ve seen you
overreact to things before,

but...

You don�t wanna
talk this out?

You staying at the 15th?

Yeah.

Then there�s nothing
to talk about.

You don�t think that this
is taking it too far?

Who took it too far,
John? I did?!

You disrespect me
in front of other cops.

You choose to work
with that bum sipowicz

against my advice.

You wanna live
your own life,

you go live it.

You go make
your own mistakes.

I just hope they don�t
cost you your job...Or worse.

If I forgot anything,
you leave a message,

i�ll see it�s dropped off
at your squad.
