His wallet was on the floor
next to his pants and jacket.

No money, some credit cards.
License says Jay Markowitz.

Markowitz for Men. Hmm.
I've seen this guy on TV.

"We got portlies, we got longs."
He did his own commercials.

Oh yeah? Well, now we know
what he did for breakfast.

He probably took it first.
She's got three in the upper torso.

Two in the side for him,
probably when he was heading for cover.

Jeez, how could people screw
in that kind of racket?

Super said she'd been here two months.

She just got divorced.
She asked for an extra dead bolt.

Said her ex was pissed off.
Didn't want him busting through her door.

I guess it was still
on the super's to-do list.

I... I can't hear a damn thing here.

We got a ladder down
on the fire escape.

- Where's Medavoy?
- He's started the canvass.

He's talking to one of the neighbors.

Give me the list of names
for re-canvass.

- I'm gonna check the alley.
- Yeah!

Yeah, see Miss Novak, most...
Most of the other tenants were out.

That's why it's important
that we talk to you.

Yes, but I doubt that I can help you.

Oh, boy, these... These plant allergies
I got are really kicking in.

You... You... You didn't see anything, uh,
out in your alley earlier?

- I didn't. No.
- Uh, here... Here's our Detective Simone.

Hey, Bobby!

I'm having quite an allergic reaction.
You think you could finish up?

- Yeah. Go ahead, Greg. You okay?
- Uh, I think my throat's closing down.

Hi. I'm Detective Simone.

Joyce Novak.

Were you acquainted
with the female victim,

- she lived across there in the alley?
- Alicia Glover?

No, I told the detective I don't think
I knew her.

Uh, Jay Markowitz?
That name sound familiar to you?

He was, uh, visiting Miss Glover.

No.

And her apartment had fresh flowers in it

kind... Kind of like these right here.

- Hyacinth.
- Huh.

She could've bought them here.

I just didn't know her by name.

Could I ask you a favor, Detective?

Would you mind checking the security
of my back door? I... I live here alone.

Well, we really don't think
it was an intruder that did these crimes.

Uh, it looks like
there was a personal motive, but...

Excuse me, ma'am. I'll check it for you.

I think you're fine here.

Uh... If you're worried, maybe a...

dog might not be a bad idea.

- Preferably one that barks.
- Yeah.

So, did Detective Medavoy ask you
if you've seen any unusual activity

out there in the alley,
anyone moving quickly?

Yeah. Yeah, he asked.

Uh-huh.

But you didn't see anything?

No.

All right, Miss, uh, Novak.

If you can remember anything
that relates to the homicides

or, uh, you hear anything
that you think might be helpful.

Yeah, I'll call you.

That'd be great.

Can I offer you some flowers

for your home security advice?

No, they'd just kind of sit around
in the squad room all day.

Thanks.

Male and female croaked mid-hump.

Door was broken down.
We found a snub-nosed .38

in a paper bag in a trash can
in the alley.

- Five spent shells, no prints.
- The, uh, male was Jay Markowitz,

that guy who sold men's clothes on TV.

"We got portlies, we got longs?"

Yeah. That's the guy.

Female was Alicia Glover.
It was her place.

Super said she had a rough divorce.
She was afraid of her ex.

We got a line on him?

Arnold Glover. He's on vacation.
Be back tomorrow.

Uh, this Markowitz
had two, uh, Mastercards, uh,

an American Express, and a Visa Gold.
Uh, we got calls out on them.

- Anything off canvass?
- Six workmen outside. Nobody saw anything.

You know, I interviewed this woman
that seemed a little hinky.

She had a pretty good view of the alley
behind the building.

- I wanna try her again on re-canvass.
- All right.

- Hey, James.
- Yeah?

I see you signed up to represent
the precinct in the boxing tournament?

Yeah. I boxed intramural in school.
I thought I might give it a shot.

Yeah, I boxed a little Golden Gloves.

- Is that right? You gonna enter?
- Yeah.

Nah. I don't need to borrow trouble.

We ought to work out some, you know?

- Spar a little bit. Ooh.
- Bop.

Let me know when.

I'll remember that.

Detective! Hello!

John! How's it going?

- Is this the PAA's desk?
- That's it right there.

John Irvin, Andy Sipowicz.

Good to meet you.

Yeah. How's it going?

Uh, Detective Simone and I know each other
from One Police Plaza.

- Is that so?
- I'm temping

until your Miss Abandando returns.

John, you know you... You look like
you got a little sun there.

Oh. It... It went
right through the sunscreen.

The, uh, Gay Officers Action League
is open to civilian assistants.

We were on a junket in Puerto Rico.

15th Detective Squad.

One moment. Detective, it's for you.

Thanks so much.

John, I never got to tell you
how much I appreciated

you sending that card when my wife died.

Ah, I know what it's like to lose people
who are close.

- How are you doing?
- I'm okay, thanks.

Um, I'm always unsettled the first day
in a new job situation.

- It's good to see a familiar face.
- You'll be all right.

Are you okay? Yeah.

What's going on, Andy?

Some people owned a candy store
in Brooklyn.

I worked there when I was a kid.

Went to school with their sons.

Someone stuck them up.

Moe wasn't there, but Sonia got killed.

Seventy-six-year-old woman.
They shoot her in the chest.

- Where was this?
- Um, Park Slope.

Uh. The 6-4. I... I knew this family
since I was a kid.

- You want to go over there?
- Yeah, we're covered on this.

Yeah, I'd like to, uh,
the family's pretty upset.

Excuse me.

Lieu, that's the woman I wanted
to reinterview on those homicides.

- All right.
- Detective Simone?

How's it going, Miss Novak?

Do you have a moment for us to talk?

Sure. Come on in. Have a seat.

I'm not proud of what I have to tell you,
Detective.

What's that?

I wasn't honest at my apartment

I did see something that could help
with your case.

I'd like to know what that is.

I... I hope you understand.
I... I was frightened.

Sure, I do. And I'm glad you had
second thoughts about coming in.

I was in the yard about 9:15.

I gather that's just after
the murders happened?

- That's right.
- I heard someone running down the alley.

I looked up and I saw a man.

- Get a good look at him?
- I think I got a pretty good look.

Uh, he was about five-foot-11,
uh, thick eyebrows,

clean shaven. Wide nose,
like it might've been broken sometime.

That's, uh, an excellent description.

Did you get a chance to see
what he was wearing?

No jacket.

A white shirt that wasn't tucked in.

And he was carrying something in his hand,
like a small brown paper bag

which he threw into the trash can.

So, uh, do you think
that this might be helpful?

I think it'll be very helpful, Miss Novak.

And again, I'm really glad you came in.

Good.

She's gone, Andy.

I'm sorry, Dave.

Dad's over here.

It's Andy Sipowicz, Dad.

Andy.

I'm sorry for your loss, Moe.

What did I tell you when you were
a boy, Andy,

- if someone came in with a gun?
- Empty the register.

If they can carry the register out
on the back, that's fine, too.

When I'd leave you working in the store,
didn't I tell you that?

I guess Sonia wouldn't give it to them.

She wouldn't give them the money.
That's what must've happened.

I was supposed to be working.
I had shortness of breath.

So, here's what we got so far.

I'm gonna go talk
to this Detective a second, Moe.

It's 41 years, we were never held up.

We know these kids
since they were able to walk.

We'd give them an extra scoop.
Let them read the comics and everything.

Later on, they looked out for us.

I mean, every other place got hit,
but not us.

- Yeah.
- Dad, let Andy go talk to this Detective.

Excuse me just a second, Moe.

Where's Ernie?

He's lying down. You'll see him later.

All right. Let me know.

- How's it going, Detective?
- What do you got?

Uh, no witnesses in the store.
One guy in the streets

- saw a male come out in a ski mask.
- He get in a car?

Yeah. He ran around the corner.
Guy thought he was around five-ten.

The crime scene lifted some prints
off the counter.

- We might get a hit off those.
- There's a methadone clinic

a block and a half down.
Might have some candidates.

Yeah, I know. I'm gonna check it out.

I spoke to the one son, David.
I guess the other's under sedation.

Ernie, yeah.

If he's up to it, I'd like to bring
the old man in, you know

whatever background I can get.

I'd like to be there
for the interview.

Yeah, absolutely. Whatever you want.

You used to work in that store, huh?

- Yeah. When I was a kid.
- Yeah, that's what the son said.

Uh, listen I'm gonna follow them
to the station house.

All right.

This woman could turn it for us, Lieu.
We found out from his office

that the victim's ex-husband
left for Atlantic City two days ago.

So, maybe he slips back today
with a clean piece, pops the ex

and the new boyfriend,
heads back to the beach,

comes back here in time for work
tomorrow morning.

Description the woman gave
fits the ex-husband?

Got his photo from the DMV.
Description's on the money.

DA's coming in for a formal statement
while it's fresh.

- She'll look good to a jury.
- Mm-hmm.

- Detective Simone seems very nice.
- Detective Simone is a gentleman.

We worked in the same building
several years ago,

and he was going through
a very difficult time.

His wife was very ill,
but he still always had a friendly word

- whenever we crossed paths.
- Is his wife better now?

Oh, no. She passed about a year ago.

ADA Costas. I'm here to take a statement.

- How's it going?
- Good.

- This is Ms. Joyce Novak.
- Sylvia Costas, how do you do?

If you don't mind, I'd like ADA Costas
to hear what you saw.

- All right.
- My office likes to interview

important witnesses as early
in the process as possible.

I understand.

That way your memory's fresh,
and we keep continuity with the police.

There's something I didn't tell you,
Detective.

Mm-hmm.

Well, that's fine,
we'll get all the information down.

In terms of what is
on your statement, Ms. Novak,

the man was five-foot-ten, thick eyebrows,
clean shaven, with a crooked nose?

A white shirt, no jacket,
and a brown paper bag in his right hand.

You have a very specific memory.
That's good.

How far away from him
would you say you were?

About 40 feet.

- Do you ever wear glasses?
- No, I don't.

That's the "A" answer.

Excuse me.

What's the additional information,
Ms. Novak?

I think the man saw me.

- Hmm. What makes you think that?
- Well, I... I should say I know he saw me.

He looked at me right in the eye
as he ran past.

I just wouldn't let myself admit it
because it scares me.

Well, how did he react when your eyes met?
I mean, did he stop? Did he say anything?

No, he just kept running.

Is there anything else that, uh,

could be pertinent
that you haven't told us, Miss Novak?

No. That's everything, uh,
I know I should've said this before.

Do you think I'm in danger?

I want to talk to ADA Costas for a minute,
and I'll be right back.

Well, thank you for your cooperation,
Miss Novak.

As the case develops,
I'm sure we'll see each other again.

Be right back.

You said on the phone
that she didn't originally come forward?

Yeah. You'd think that
when she did come in,

saying she was seen would be
the first thing that she'd talk about.

Yeah. Well, that doesn't discredit her,
but it does worry me a little.

Her description of the bag
fits how you found the gun?

Yeah. Paper bag in the trash can.

Look, I, uh, I think
she's probably reliable.

Saying she was seen, she may be looking
for a police guard.

Think she's got someone in mind?

- All right, keep me posted.
- Okay.

All right, Miss Novak,
uh, you're finished for now.

We appreciate you taking the time.

I thought you wanted to talk to me
about whether I was in danger.

- When did I say that?
- Just before that woman left.

Oh, you mean the ADA.
Oh, yeah, that's right.

I... I believe that you're safe
in your apartment,

but if you have a friend or a relative
that you'd rather stay with,

that... That'd be fine.

I thought... the police
might give me protection.

- That what you want?
- I'd prefer it, yes.

- I really have no one to stay with.
- Fine. We'll, uh, get you a motel room.

If that's what you think is necessary.

We'll get you a room.
We'll get you a female detective

to stay with you, all right?

And you think
that's sufficient precaution?

Oh, yeah, absolutely.
They do a lot of this.

We were doing more on lottery tickets
than on the ice cream.

I mean, sometimes there was a line.
You'd think it was Radio City.

Somebody won out of the store last year,
a 25-thousand-dollar ticket.

So, after that, it became the lucky place.

Mr. Neiberg, would there have been checks
or money orders in the register?

I don't know,
there's always a few money orders.

We wouldn't have checks till Friday.

So, you're looking for something to trace?

What about a gun?
Did you keep a gun in the store?

Just the bat behind the counter.

She must have tried to take that to him.

That's the bat that they found
lying next to her.

I had that bat since you swept the floors.

Excuse me a second, Mr. Neiberg.

Detective, can I talk to you?

One of those prints
off of the countertop...

four hits from VCI,
three guys with narcotics collars.

I'll check those against
that methadone clinic.

I know how this other guy is,
this James Matlow.

We used to call him Jimmy Socks
'cause his feet stank.

- Don't really fit, does it?
- Bad checks.

Ernie.

Hey, Andy, I... I should've figured
you'd be here.

- I'm so sorry about your mother.
- I know.

Ernie Neiberg, Detective Savino.

- I'm sorry about your mother.
- I appreciate you coming in.

She's gone, Ernie.

- What am I gonna do? What are we gonna do?
- I don't know, Pop.

- Why didn't she give them the money?
- I... I don't know.

Are you done with my father?

Yeah. Mr. Neiberg, you gonna try
and think for me.

None of those kids were mad at us.

Just if anyone comes to mind.

When's the last time either of you saw
Jimmy Matlow... Jimmy Socks?

- When he moved out of the neighborhood.
- Uh-huh.

You remember Jimmy Matlow, Moe?

- No.
- Jimmy Socks, Dad.

- I don't remember him.
- The kid with the stinky feet.

Well, he doesn't remember.
What difference does it make?

They found his prints on the counter.

- Jimmy Matlow? J... Jimmy Socks?
- Yeah.

Oh, he was in the store three nights ago.

Yeah. Remember I was watching the store
for you, Pop.

Jimmy Socks came in.

He was in the neighborhood.
He stopped in to say hello.

I got to get back.

I'll keep, uh, I'll keep in touch
with this through Detective Savino.

We're gonna keep Detective Sipowicz
posted right along.

- Thanks for seeing us through this one.
- Yeah. I'm sorry.

- I'll call you.
- Moe...

you be strong for Sonia, all right?
That's what she would have wanted.

She was talking about you the other day,
Andy.

She said she cut your name
out of the paper.

- Take care of your dad. Yeah.
- Yeah. He'll be all right.

Excuse me a second.

See if you can reach out
to this Jimmy Matlow

before these people
leave the station house.

You didn't like the younger brother's
answer?

Uh. It's... It's probably okay,
but I, uh, I'd like to talk to Matlow

before him and Ernie get a chance
to get their heads together.

- Right, I'll call you when we pick him up.
- Yeah.

- Want to hit the gym, Lieu?
- No. I got to get home.

- I'm gonna get those gloves back on you.
- Yeah, all right.

- Good night, Bob.
- Night, James!

So, Lesniak is sitting on your witness?

Mm-hmm. We'll look to grab up
this Arnold Glover tomorrow morning

when he gets back from Atlantic City.

What do you make of her changing
her story?

Well, the only thing was
the guy seeing her.

She stayed straight on everything else.

Changing her story on the guy
seeing her is pretty big.

- Yeah.
- I don't want to get down the road

with this woman to have her wind up

telling us she knows
where Jimmy Hoffa is.

Well, I don't know, Lieu,
that would be a nice case to clear.

- Good night.
- Good night, Lieutenant.

So, how'd it go today?

It went fine, Detective.
I feel very settled in.

- Yeah? That's good.
- Good night, guys.

- Yeah! Good night, Detective.
- Good night, Bobby.

Of course, uh, you don't want
to get too settled in.

No. I understand Miss Abandando's
expected back.

Yeah, you probably don't want to be using
her clerical materials or so forth.

No. Uh, we're all very particular
about that kind of thing.

Yeah. 'cause,
uh, she's definitely expected back.

Arnold Glover?

What's up?

Uh, there's been an accident
involving your ex-wife.

Let's go down to the station house,
we'll fill you in on what we know.

I'm not interested in what you know

and I don't care what happened
to my ex-wife.

Well, let's go
to the station house anyway.

I was in Atlantic City, I got nothing
to say to you guys.

Look, Arnold, what do you want to do,

you wanna go like a gentleman
or a skell, huh?

Want me to cuff you out here
and throw your ass in the back of the car?

My lawyer is Doris Kaplan
of Kaplan, Moser, and Garfein.

Yeah. We know Doris. Come on. Let's go.
Come on.

Yeah. Just the serial number.

How'd we do on those junkies?

I'm just gonna talk to the last one.
The other two alibied out.

Guy you know is in Interview Two.

- Jimmy Matlow.
- There's no warrant,

we couldn't grab him up till he left
his house this morning,

but I doubt he's talked to this Ernie

'cause his phone's been disconnected
for two months.

What's he think it's about?

We told him his plates got reported
in a car accident.

Andy.

How's it going, Jimmy?

I don't know what’s going on,
they got me here

for some traffic accident
I don't know nothing about.

Well, you're...
You're in this precinct now.

Why don't you talk with James, Detective,
maybe you can clear this up?

- Yeah, okay.
- All right.

How's it going, Andy? How you been?

Okay, Socks.

Socks.

You're the only person
who still calls me Socks.

I been okay recently.

I had a few speed bumps with the law
four or five years ago.

This here, I... I don't know anything
what this is about.

Jimmy, when did you see the Neibergs last?

The candy store people?

Gee, it's been a while.

How long?

- What's going on, Andy? What's this about?
- Answer my question.

I'm going to guess... Two years?

If I ain't here for a traffic accident,
what the hell am I in here for, Andy?

Sonia Neiberg got shot
in a stickup, Socks.

You're kidding me.

She's dead.

Who have you spoke to?
Moe and the boys, they must be sick.

Your fingerprints are on the counter
in that store.

Hey, Andy, your fingerprints are probably
on that counter from when we was kids.

Mm-hmm. Those prints aren't from
when we were kids.

Sonia wiped that counter down every night.

Oh, come on, Andy. You're talking
about Sonia and Moe,

talking about David and Ernie.

These are people I know,
people I care about.

I don't like how this is going, Jimmy.

I... I'm going to tell you
the absolute truth

and explain why I didn't previously.

I was in there three nights ago.

Now, listen to me... Listen to me.

This is exactly why I was reluctant
to say.

I got a record, Andy. I can't afford
to get in trouble on things.

Why would you get in trouble
for saying you were in that store?

Hmm?

All right, all right.

Here's the absolute truth.

I did stop by there three nights ago
to say hello to Ernie.

That's how my prints probably got
on the counter.

Why did you stop?

- I... I saw his car out front.
- How do you know what kinda car he drives?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Did you go and meet him three nights ago
and come back yesterday, Socks?

Andy, on my mother's eyes, I swear,
I'd never do anything like this.

You remember my catcher's mitt, Socks?

Catcher's mitt?
What are you talking about?

You remember my new catcher's mitt
showing up in your locker at school?

Andy, what are you bringing that up
here for, now, huh?

I never knew how that got in there.

You swore on your mother's eyes then, too.
Hmm?

Something happened in that store,
and you were involved in it.

Look in my eyes.

Now you tell me. You are going to tell me.

Let's get it over with.

Okay, bye-bye.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

- Where's Detective Simone?
- In the locker room.

The locker's unisex.

- Hey.
- Good morning.

Is she going to a party afterwards?

She's kind of a strange broad.

- Yeah?
- She seems pleasant enough,

and then you get a big
Leona Helmsley hit.

Well, we brought
the suspect in.

James and Greg are setting the lineup now.

Let's see how it goes.
Thanks for sitting with her, Adrianne.

- No problem.
- How's it going today, Miss Novak?

So, you brought in a suspect.

We are going to run a lineup,
see if you recognize anyone.

Come on in here and have a seat.
I'll explain to you how it goes.

You're wrong about flowers.
They'd brighten up your desk.

I'll bring you in some.

So, uh...

there'll be six people sitting in a room.

You'll be looking
through a one-way mirror.

They won't be able to see you,
so you can get as close to the window

- as you need to. I'll be there with you.
- Good.

So will my boss, the ADA,
and a defense attorney.

Now, I'm not looking
to coach you here, Ms. Novak, but...

If you don't start calling me Joyce,
I'm out of here.

Okay.

I'm not looking to coach you, Joyce,

but I do need you to understand
the legalities

where if a witness says something
like, uh,

"This might be the person
or maybe that was him,"

legally that's as good as saying,
"I didn't recognize anybody."

- No if, ands, or buts?
- No if, ands, or buts. That's right.

We should be set up to go
in a little while, uh,

can I get you something to drink?

Is the coffee here as yummy
as that instant in my motel room?

Yeah, those places really aren't the Ritz,
are they?

How do you take it?

I'll come with you. I'll fix it myself.

You, uh, sleep all right
last night?

First pajama party in a while.

Detective Lesniak snore?

I thought maybe you'd know.

No. Uh, we've never guarded
a material witness together.

So, am I the only person
who saw your suspect?

I'm not allowed to answer that.

I know these people were shot.

Would it be better
if instead of seeing him carry a bag,

I saw him carrying a gun?

Did you see him carrying a gun?

Well, I might have seen a gun
if it might make it easier for you.

Joyce, the only thing that's gonna make
my job easier here

is you saying the absolute truth.
Lying could jeopardize this whole case.

- Don't be angry with me.
- I'm not angry.

- I'm just trying to help.
- Well, that doesn't help,

you making things up.

You know, I've put myself
to considerable trouble here.

I know you have. And I appreciate that.

It might be considerable trouble and risk
continuing to cooperate.

Yeah.

Well, that's why I want to keep this

as straightforward
as possible here, Joyce.

Okay? No embellishing on anything.

Here.

Oh, hi. We got the fillers, Bobby, uh

- We're ready when you are.
- I'm not sure I'm ready.

Just give us a second here, Greg.

Sure.

What's up? You want to take a minute?

I'm not sure I want to do this at all.

- Joyce, let's try to calm down here, okay?
- I'm perfectly calm.

I'm just not sure I want to put myself
through all this.

All right, I'll tell you what. Let's, uh,
put the lineup off for a little while.

Why don't you and me go and, uh,
have a little lunch...

try to sort all this out?

And then if you feel up to it afterwards,
we can run the lineup.

All right.

Let's sort it out.

Okay.

I'm gonna just talk to my boss,
and then we're out of here.

Okay, here we go.

Lieu, can I talk to you for a second?

I'll be in the coffee room.

- We got more problems with this woman.
- She changed her story again?

She offered to.

Now, look, I know she saw this guy.
I know she can pick him out.

I've just gotta hold her together.

All right, so I want to stall the lineup,
you know, take her for some food.

If she's psycho, I don't want you
positioned where she can lie

about what you did or said.

I've got to take her myself.

- That's what she's looking for?
- I can handle it. She's not that bad.

Lieu, she's our only witness.

Miss Novak was saying this lineup
has been postponed?

Yeah, we're having a little trouble
finding fillers,

so, I, uh, I thought I'd take Joyce out
for a quick lunch. You ready?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, thanks.

Ernie Neiberg's on his way up.

Hey, sure you want to do this?

Do I look like I want to do it?

I'm just saying, maybe I should
take the interview.

No, I got to do it.

Hey, Andy. Detective.

How's it going, Mr. Neiberg?

What did you need to talk to me about?

Let's go in there.

My dad's lousy.

I... I want to get back as soon as I can.

Oh, yeah? You're worried about your dad?
You're worried about him?

We got to figure how to take care
of your dad, Ernie,

'cause Socks gave it up.

- What are you saying?
- What do you mean what am I saying?

Socks gave it up.

Him doing the stickup,
and you putting him up to it.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You're gonna... you're gonna stand there
and you're gonna lie to me, hmm?

I know you didn't want your mother
to be hurt.

You get ready to tell me the truth.

Then we got to figure out
how to keep your father alive

when he hears about this.

You know I would have sprang
for a sit-down.

I like hot dogs.

The Umbrella Café. Hmm.

Let's sit over there.

- Thanks, Morrie.
- Okay.

I'm glad we got out.

You know, there are some things
that I wanted to tell you that I, uh...

I really couldn't say
in the station house.

In terms of some feelings that I may have.

What kind of feelings?

Joyce, when I'm on a case,

no matter how I may begin to feel
about somebody on a personal level,

as hard as that may be for me,

I've got to put those
personal feelings to the side.

In other words, they don't allow you
to have a personal life?

You got to understand
that if the defense... if they prove

that there's a relationship
between a witness and a detective,

then your credibility's shot, so is mine.

Well, they might suggest collusion.

Collusion. Exactly.

My boss, he's already uncomfortable
about the two of us.

I mean, he senses something.

He's thinking about
taking me off the case.

I don't want that.

I don't want that either, Joyce.

That's why we have to keep this
on a professional level.

You know, this whole thing...
It'll be over inside of a year.

So, you do have feelings for me?

I won't talk about my personal feelings
at this point, okay?

- I don't want to presume what yours are.
- While the case is going on.

- While the case is going on, that's right.
- But afterward?

Well afterwards,
that's a whole different ball game.

Then I can say
how I really feel about you.

All right. I understand.

- Do you?
- Yeah.

How do you feel about the lineup?

You ready to go back in there?

You'll be with me?

I'll be standing there right next to you.

What am I gonna do, Andy?

What am I gonna do?

Maybe you should just put a bullet
in my head.

Ernie, let's get through this. Sit down.

Look, my father was supposed
to be there, all right?

My father was supposed to be there.

He always said he'd give it up.

- I don't know if you remember that.
- Yeah.

"If they can take the cash register
on their back,

"let them take it," he says.

But...

He had pains in his chest,
so Mom made him go home.

And so, it was her behind the counter.

She was not supposed to be there.

I... I don't know why Socks had
a loaded gun.

He said it was to back people off,
and he slipped when she swung the bat.

Well, that's not good enough, okay?

That's no excuse.

There was not supposed to be violence.

They were going to take the store, Andy.

I owed Shylocks.

I couldn't go
to my folks again.

But you could rob them?

Four or five thousand would have
backed them off.

You gotta write it down, Ernie.

So...

is this some kind of a...

manslaughter type thing, and,

- some kind of an involuntary type thing?
- Write up a statement, Ernie.

They'll figure out a charge.

Now, on your dad...

do you wanna talk to him if they'll let me
take you over there?

No, I can't face him. He wo...

...I... I can't see him.
You tell him what happened.

Yeah. Yeah, all right.

But on the uh, charge...

they might go for something involuntary?

Do you recognize anyone, Miss Novak?

Yes, number four.

Where do you recognize
number four from?

I saw him yesterday at about 9:15 a.m.,

running through the alley
outside my apartment.

He had a brown paper bag
in his right hand

and he threw the bag into a trash can.

Everyone but number four can go.

Everybody but number four.

- I'd like to see my client.
- Go ahead.

Okay, thank you, everybody.
You can go now.

Has Detective Simone walked you
through the next few days?

Whether or not they deal, you'll have to
testify before the grand jury

within 72 hours.

- You think they might deal?
- No, it's possible.

From my point of view the more quickly
this is resolved, the better.

I can understand your feelings.

- You'll hold him in custody now?
- Yeah.

Then I'd like to move back
to my apartment.

I think that makes sense.

I don't have a car.
Can Detective Simone take me home?

Yeah.

Here we go.

Come to arrest me, Andy?

- Make me go to the funeral home?
- Moe, a few things have developed.

With who killed her?

Jimmy Matlow. We found his print
on the counter.

Jimmy Matlow.

- He did it?
- Sit down.

Ernie's talked to me, Moe.

He said he put Jimmy up to it.

We had to take Ernie into custody.

It was the gambling. It was the bets.

Moe...

I want you to know that...

Ernie came to me.

He came forward on his own.

He did?

He never wanted this to happen.

What'll they do to my son Ernie?

He's locked up.

Forever? He'll never get out of jail?

It's not settled yet, Moe.

All his life people did for him.
That's why this has happened.

So it's not his fault, right, Dad?

Because everyone did for him
his whole life,

this isn't his fault either?

He killed Ma!

He didn't pull the trigger.

Ma's dead.

David... I know you want to take care
of your dad now, right?

Maybe, uh, help him lie down.

Yeah, Dad.

Let... let's go home. Come on.

Why don't you give me the keys?

I'll close the store.

I won't go to the funeral home yet.

No one's asking you to go
to the funeral home, Dad.

I won't see Ernie yet.

All right, all right. Whatever you decide.

But if I do see him...

Don't ask me to forgive him yet.

Yeah, this, uh, all looks okay, too.

- Thanks for the ride.
- Sure.

So, can I uh, be your chauffeur
at the grand jury, too?

You're hired.

I'm hired, huh?

- You know one of my best qualities?
- And what's that?

I know how to keep a secret.

- Mm-hmm?
- Uh-huh.

We're here alone.

I won't tell if you won't.

- We can't do this, Joyce.
- Why?

Don't you think you can trust me?

- No, it's not that.
- What? You think I'd get you into trouble?

Accuse you of something if you didn't do
what I wanted?

You think I'd blow your case?

Look, we're not going to do anything here.

All right?

Nothing's going to happen.

And I... I need for you
to understand that.

I need for you to work with me on this.

- I just... Look, I got... I got to work.
- Wait, wait, wait.

I'll work with you.

We'll find a way to work it out.

- Good.
- That's good.

- Don't go yet.
- No, I... I really...

No, just a second.

Can I put that on my desk?

That's what it's for.

Ah, that's great.

That's great.

So I'll, uh...

I'll talk to you later then, huh?

Good.

I'll let you know about the grand jury.

What's going on?

How's your... Brooklyn situation?

It's done. How's our Manhattan situation?

Uh, Detective Simone's witness made an ID
on that double homicide.

I think he's in the locker room.

Hey, how's it going?

I'm going to do a 4:00 to 1:00,
make up for the day.

That case went down...

That dead woman.

- These are your friends in Brooklyn?
- One of the boys set it up.

One of her sons.

He set up a stickup, and it went bad.

I'm sorry, man.

That homo out there said you collared up.

What a head case my witness is.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah. Horny, mean...

three quarters nuts.

I tell you, you meet her on the outside,
you'd think she was a catch.

Yeah, this... this is a great job.

You get to see people at their best.

If this family had to deal
with a cop, Andy,

they're probably glad it was you.

There are few enough things
you'd like to keep how they were.

That candy store would have been
one of them.

Good night.

Good night.

Uh, is Detective Simone gone?

Yeah, he just walked out.

Uh, he's left.
Can I have another detective help you?

Uh, no. I can't give that information out.

Uh, you can try him here tomorrow.
He's gonna be here till 4:00.

All right.

Personal call.
