NARRATOR: That was the scene in
California 's Mojave Desert, five years ago.

Our historic first view of
the Newcomers' ship.

Theirs was a slave ship,
carrying a quarter-million beings...

bred to adapt and labor
in any environment.

But they've washed ashore on Earth...

with no way to get back
to where they came from.

And in the last five years, the Newcomers
have become the latest addition...

to the population of Los Angeles.

Helen? How are we doing with that uplink
to Osaka?

lt's coming up now, thank you.

-l didn't realize there'd be so many of you.
-That's not Osaka.

-What the hell is this?
-lt's one of those videophone sex lines.

You place an order for what you want
to see, and they perform it for you.

We must've crossed lines
with another call.

Helen? God, l hope they're not getting this
in Osaka.

[Seductive instrumental music playing
on screen]

l got your fantasy phone order.

EXECUTlVE 1 : lt's not bad, so far.

l will do everything l can...

to make you feel good.

l hope you're enjoying this
as much as l am.

VlRGlNlA: Please, please no!

[Gunfire]

EXECUTlVE 2: Oh, my God.

Perverts.

WOMAN: [On TV] Every day at this time,
l want to treat Max to something special.

When he's worked up an appetite,
l give him New Menu.

George, hurry up.

GEORGE: l'm coming.

Wouldn't wanna miss the freak show.

Buck, this is something to be proud of.

lt's not every day
your father becomes a star.

-Like Spuds MacKenzie.
-Morning.

WOMAN: [On TV] lt's so good.

Good morning, this is Renee Longstreet.

Here it is.

Tonight and every night this week
we'll present part of our continuing...

Alien Anniversary series,
featuring George Francisco...

LAPD's first Newcomer detective,
one year later.

We'll investigate the investigator at home
and on the job, starting tonight.

They may as well put you in a cage
at the zoo for a week.

Buck, your father has an opportunity
to break down some stereotypes.

This is a good way for people to see
who we really are and how we live.

You'll be wonderful.

As far as l'm concerned,
it's just another day at the office.

[Speaking in alien language]

Sikes, new shirt. New jacket.

No wonder you made captain.
You're very observant, Bry.

You can't fool me, Sikes.

You can dress it up,
but you can't take it out.

So l'm only going to say this once.
This is good behavior week.

l don't want you doing anything to...

embarrass the department
while that camera's around.

l will be an angel, angel.

Look, just finish the interviews with the...

witnesses on
that Vegas junket bus mugging.

Okay, everybody, this is it. Best behavior.

-What would you like me to do?
-Just do what you normally do.

CAMERAMAN: We're rolling.

-Good morning, Matthew.
-Morning, George.

Where are we
on the Vegas bus muggings?

We still have several dozen witnesses
to interview, Captain.

Let's be thorough, but efficient.

l'm sorry, l was searching
for the right word and hesitated.

-Could we do that over?
-Kill it.

Ms. Longstreet?
Hi, l'm Matt Sikes, George's partner.

Look, don't be too hard on the Captain.

He hasn't had a lot of experience
with this sort of thing.

-Thank you, Detective.
-Don't mention it.

Look, Captain.

This isn't a movie.

So just carry on like we're not even here.
lgnore us, be yourself.

Now, Francisco and Sikes
are on the bus mugging, huh?

Okay.

We've got some shots we can get around
the building while they're doing that.

-So, we'll just--
-No. No need for that.

We just got a call in
about a videophone sex homicide.

l'd like to send Francisco and Sikes
on that.

How would that be?

That would be very interesting.

MATT: l know why you're nervous.

lf you blow it on TV,
you blow it for Newcomers everywhere.

-Yes. Exactly.
-Listen.

lt's just another day in the pits.

You're a good cop.
l am there to back you up. Routine.

Let's go.

Excuse me, Det. Sikes.

l know we didn't get much
of a chance to talk...

but l want you to know
that your cooperation...

and involvement is very important.

And, by the way,
you are very natural on camera.

-Thanks.
-Keep it up.

Now this seems dumb, l know, but...

would you mind
if Det. Francisco went in first?

-Sure. He's the star.
-Thanks.

Reports of shots fired came
at the same time executives witnessed...

the videophone murder.

This scene matches the description given
by the executives.

And l warn you now
that it may not be very pretty in there.

They said it was bizarre, but a set?

Start on the bed
so we don't know what we're looking at.

Then pan up the wall, up,
pull back, we see it's a set.

Got it.

What kind of sick mind
would do something like this?

lt's beyond me.

Matt.

-Maybe there weren't any victims.
-You thinking what l'm thinking?

There was no murder. lt's a hoax.

-A hoax?
-Yeah. Stage blood.

There's no bullet holes.
lt's all make-believe.

Ma'am, you can't go in there.

-Ma'am, you can't--
-l'm telling you, this is my place.

You two got names?

The name's Virginia Hamm.
This is Roger Rose.

Look, we can explain all of....

Didn't l see you on TV this morning?
lt's Francisco, right?

Yes, they're doing a segment for the news.

What the hell's going on here?

l'm sorry about the gunshots,
but l'm afraid it's all a big mistake.

You see,
we're still a very young industry and...

we're working all the kinks out.

-''Voyeur Vision''?
-Pay-per-view videophone sex line.

-Phone sex?
-Yeah.

-Do you use that?
-No!

Try it, you'll like it. We're taking
phone sex to a whole new level.

And it's legal. Our permits.

The gunshots you heard and all of this...

was part of a fantasy sequence requested
by a viewer.

What, some sicko wants to see
a Newcomer girl...

dance dirty and then get blown away?

lt takes all kinds.

Some executives saw your fantasy
by mistake and thought it was a murder.

-You should have seen their faces.
-You can see them?

lt's interactive.

When the conference room freaked out...

we realized the phone company
screwed up and got...

their teleconference crossed up
with our voyeur.

So if you want to arrest somebody,
cuff the phone company.

Gunshots echo through the night,
summoning police to where...

blood-spattered walls tell a macabre tale
of agony and death.

Who is responsible
for such a heinous crime?

lt's beyond me.

That response is not surprising
from an average detective.

All the signs say cults or crazed killer.

But not to LA 's first
Newcomer Detective...

who uses his superior instincts
and senses...

to cut through police obstacles
mere mortals need computers for.

lt only took him seconds to realize....

There was no murder. This is a hoax.

RENEE: Not a murder at all,
but a staged show...

a bizarre bispecial
videophone voyeurism.

And Det. Francisco saw right through it.

Dad, maybe l was wrong.
That was pretty clever.

You see, that's not exactly
what happened. Matthew--

l am so proud of you. Everyone at school
is going to want to talk to me tomorrow.

-Emily, you see--
-You know, George...

-you look a little washed out.
-Washed out?

Maybe a darker suit and a brighter tie
would be more flattering...

-accent your spots.
-My spots?

-You're selling yourself.
-Susan, l'm not selling anything.

Sure you are.

You know, my work at the ad agency...

has taught me a lot about presenting
the best possible image...

in the shortest amount of time.

We're selling the Newcomer ideal.
So are you.

Look how l've designed this ad.

See, a dark suit and a bright tie
convey competence and warmth...

like Ronald Reagan used to do.

Historians are crediting that to his hair.

Why don't you let me try tomorrow?

RENEE: [On TV] Please join us
tomorrow night...

when we continue our five-part series...

[Knocking on door]

on LA 's first Newcomer detective...

Sgt. George Francisco.

-Did you see George's feature?
-l saw it.

lt really made George look good.

Made me look like a part of the K-9 Corps,
the one on the leash.

REPORTER: For the next 60 seconds...

there will be a test
of the Emergency Broadcast System.

l guess George is the focus of the thing,
but....

[High-pitched humming on TV]

[Cathy moaning]

Cathy?

You okay?

What?

lt's only a test.

l don't know how your FCC
got that particular tone, but it's...

extremely arousing.

What?

That tone, F sharp above high C...

it's very sexually stimulating.

l didn't know that about you people.

There's a lot about us you don't know.

[Man laughing]

[Man laughing]

[Virginia moaning]

l hope this is making up
for this morning's mix-up.

Before this fantasy is over...

it will be worth twice what you paid.

[Virginia screams]

Get out of here!

VlRGlNlA: Call the police! This is real!

-He asked for my autograph.
-Glad you could make it.

Renee surprised us early, wanted
to catch me eating an alien breakfast.

A plate of French toads?

-Did you see the show last night?
-No, l had errands to run.

-Why the new threads?
-Rather natty, aren't they?

Susan felt the darkness of the jacket...

contrasting with the brightness
of the tie...

would leave an impression
of strength with accessibility.

Maybe l should try a sweater vest.

Okay, boys. You're on.

So, what happened here?

Last night around midnight,
Virginia Hamm and Roger Rose...

were putting on a show
for some sicko voyeur.

No sooner had they yelled,
''Lights, camera, action''...

some nut with a Louisville slugger
comes in...

and starts bouncing it off of Roger's head.

He's in intensive now,
they're having trouble waking him up.

And Virginia Hamm?

She bolted,
either out of fear or out of guilt.

We did manage to trace the owner
of Voyeur Vision. Name's Arvin Kaufman.

Kaufman has been exploiting Newcomers
since the day our ship landed.

From his cheap tours of Little Tencton
to his Newcomer flesh magazines.

Matt.

This human preoccupation
with nude women, nude people...

or sometimes
many nude people performing...

l just don't understand it.

He's going to call his lawyer
if we don't leave?

Lady, l'll be calling his undertaker
if he doesn't let us in.

Excuse me. May l?

Knock yourself out.

Hello?
This is Renee Longstreet, KALN news.

May l speak with Mr. Kaufman, please?

Yes, Mr. Kaufman. l'm doing an exclusive
on the first Newcomer detective.

You've seen it. Thank you.

Thank you, we'll be right in.

[Seductive instrumental music playing]

Let's get an establishing shot of the room.

Then pan over to me here...

and l'll really give them an idea
who Arvin Kaufman is.

Wonder what they're like?

l wondered, too, when l first saw them.

Then l wondered
if everyone else wondered.

Five years ago, l was a mope
going nowhere, then they came.

-Pennies from heaven, huh?
-Krugerrands.

Now you must be curious, Detective.
lt's only natural to be.

Now l'm sure my girls
would let you give them a physical.

Sorry, not interested. Why don't you go
let them listen to a test pattern?

So you do know something about them?

Playing a little doctor on the side,
Detective?

CAMERAMAN: Right behind you, Detective.

Ms. Longstreet, Detective, welcome.
l've been watching your reports.

We're investigating an assault on one
of your Voyeur Vision employees...

named Roger Rose.

At Voyeur Vision, we're all one big family.

When one of us hurts, we all hurt.

He was last seen with a Newcomer female
named Virginia Hamm.

-Have you seen her?
-No, l haven't. l'm very worried.

She mentioned she had a client scheduled
for last night.

We need to know who it was,
they might have seen something.

l know she had a client last night.

At Voyeur Vision we do everything we can
to fulfill our customers' fantasies.

Also, we're very protective
of our customers' confidentiality.

So l am afraid
l can't give that information out.

That's all l'm willing to say on camera.

RENEE: Kill it.

Yeah, sure, after you get yourself
a free commercial.

Now wait a second, Detective.
l'm willing to pay.

After all, one hand washes the other.

What happened
to customer confidentiality?

Now if l'd given you my client's
credit card number on camera...

that would've been bad for business.

But if this number helps you solve
the crime, that's good for business.

And we both want what's good
for business, don't we, Detective?

-And what is your business, Kaufman?
-Fulfilling fantasies, satisfying curiosities.

And, Detective, l am personally
going to work on fulfilling yours.

Just got a make on Virginia's voyeur.
A guy named Ernie Denton.

-He may have seen something, let's roll.
-Matt, l can't. l am sorry.

After watching last night's segment,
the mayor has invited me to lunch.

-Just you?
-l asked, but you know.

What about the case?

Well, l'm sorry, Matt,
but the mayor, she is very important.

Why don't you speak with Denton
and meet up with me later?

Give me!

Louis, will you and your cousin
stop teasing Tilly?

MRS. DENTON: Don't take her doll
anymore, Louis. Leave her alone, l mean it.

-Ernie Denton?
-No, he's my brother-in-law. Who's asking?

Mom, some guy is looking for Dad.

lt's a private matter.

He's getting the cooler.

-Ernie! Someone's looking for you.
-Yeah.

Ernie Denton.

My name's Sikes. l'd like to ask you
a few questions about Voyeur Vision.

Yeah.

Yeah, l called Voyeur Vision a few times.

You like that rough stuff, huh?

lt's just fantasy.
Besides, l haven't called in a long time.

Look, l don't want my family to find out
about this, okay?

They think l'm talking
about parking tickets in here.

Your credit card record shows you've...

called this service a lot
in the last few weeks.

-l lost my wallet.
-When?

A couple of weeks ago.

You didn't cancel your cards?

You see, l thought my wife canceled them.

Look, l'm not accusing you of anything...

but it's kind of coincidental that whoever
took your wallet also called Voyeur Vision.

The number for Voyeur Vision
was in my wallet.

l was curious, but l'm not anymore.

-ls everything okay?
-Everything's fine, John.

The burgers are ready, Dad.

Go on. l wouldn't want to keep you
from your family.

MATT: No, Det. Francisco is not here.

Yes, ma'am.
l'm glad you're enjoying the profiles.

You're right. He's one
of the hardest working cops in town...

especially when he's here.

That's nice. Oh, yes.

Profile....

l heard you wanted me.

Someone gets a base hit
off of old Roger's noggin...

and Virginia's the one who runs?

We were performing for a client.

Suddenly this guy in a mask,
l didn't get a look at his face.

He was just all over Roger.
l was panicked, l ran.

-The jerk got my purse.
-Where've you been?

l had a lot of thinking to do.

l finally called Arvin,
and he said l should come in.

Why do you let
that sleaze bucket exploit you?

Exploit?

l'm a businesswoman. l've made
$100,000 in the last six months...

which l've invested in Japanese-backed
U.S. bailout bonds.

At this rate, l'll be SFL in two years.

-''SFL''?
-Set for life.

That's why l'm here.

l think the guy in the mask...

is tied to the voyeur
who ordered the fantasy.

-Why?
-The voyeur's a real weirdo.

Always asks for something
that starts out nice, turns violent.

l call him The Giggler.

He sits back in the shadows.

When things turn dark in the fantasy,
he starts to giggle.

Sounds like a regular Boy Scout.

Yeah, well, a video john's a video john.

l've dealt with his type, but before
last night, it was never dangerous.

Should've seen it coming.
He always asks for violence.

Last night's request was
for something soft and romantic.

Guess he got tired of make-believe.
Last night he supplied the violence.

He started to giggle
before the guy in the mask came out.

Like he knew what was coming.

Listen, here's my card.

lf he calls back,
would you be willing to set him up?

Yeah, the sooner the better.
Time's money.

-Where's the camera crew?
-They're setting up for a briefing.

So how's Her Honor?

The mayor's fine and she has such
a beautiful home. You should see it.

Romanesque columns and
a lovely fin de siecle porte-gouttiere.

Yeah,
l'll try to fit her into my social calendar.

From your viewers, George.

-These are fan calls.
-Don't let it swell your head.

-ls my head swelling?
-lt's just an expression.

What've you got?

The Abdul-Jabbar Standing Tall
Citizenship Award. lt's quite an honor.

Yeah, well,
l hate to rain on your cupcakes...

but while you were standing tall...

l was busting butt on our case.

-You do remember our case?
-Yes, of course.

l'm sorry, Matthew.

lt's this news thing,
it's just sort of taken over.

Francisco, where've you been?
l've been looking for you.

l've been rubbing elbows
with the brass and...

they've got a few ideas they want you
to promote for the cameras. Let's go.

[Praying in alien language]

Susan, this meal looks especially delicious
this evening.

The lymph nodes were fresh.

So, Dad, you got an award
from the mayor today.

Yes, she's very nice, very sincere.

Maybe she'd like to come
to my birthday party next week.

Kill it.

Were we going too fast?
We could slow down.

No, everything is fine,
but you mentioned Emily's birthday.

l just had a terrific idea.

You see, our research shows that our...

viewers are most interested
in your home life, your rituals.

-What day is your birthday, Em?
-A week from Thursday.

-Too bad we can't use it.
-Why not?

Emily's birthday is next week,
but we finish with your series on Friday...

and l don't really think she'd like
to celebrate it tomorrow?

Of course not. Would you, Em?

Think about it, your birthday on TV.

CATHY: Matt.

This was delivered for you today,
and they needed a signature, so l took it.

Yeah, thanks. l'll see you.

l couldn't help but notice
the Kaufman logo.

lsn't he the man who produces
the adult Newcomer films?

Yeah. We're working on a case.

lt's evidence.

l probably won't even watch it.

But if it's evidence,
won't you have to watch it?

Not if l can help it. l'll see you.

[Seductive instrumental music playing
on TV]

[Female Newcomer moaning on TV]

[Man groaning on TV]

[Phone rings]

Sikes.

VlRGlNlA: The Giggler called.
lt's all set for 8.:00.

He wants me alone.

-8:00? That's in a half hour.
-l already said l'd do it, Sikes.

Okay, l'll set it up.

Look, Bailey,
l didn't have time to sweep the area.

So stay on your toes.

Right, Sikes.

Not that l'm a chicken or anything, Sikes...

but if you hear anything,
get your ass in here, got it?

Got it.

Sorry l'm late.
We were planning Em's birthday party.

-l thought it was next week.
-lt is, but Emily decided to have it early.

All set here.

Det. Sikes has placed a tracer tap
on the phone line...

and we are now maintaining
protective surveillance...

in anticipation of whom, we know not.

[Phone rings]

The phone is ringing now, Sikes.

VlRGlNlA: l'm taking the call now.

MATT: Bailey, standby. lt's coming down.

[Voyeur laughing]

l'm really glad you called back.

[Radio static]

Can we have some quiet in here, please?

This static is coming
from that microphone.

lt's dead. lt's gone dead.

Your mike, shut it off!

[Virginia screaming]

Damn it, Sikes, get in here!

MATT: Agent down.
George, cover the back door.

-Bailey, you okay?
-Yeah. l'm okay, go.

VlRGlNlA: Sikes, he's getting away.

[Gunshots]

-You okay?
-Where the hell were you, Sikes?

He got away.

CAMERAMAN: Over here.

Turn that damn thing off.

l feel l must become involved
when brutality like this is inflicted.

l personally intend to see
that Virginia has the best of everything...

during her emotional
and physical recovery...

which is why she will be convalescing
at my estate.

l just want it to be known
that l will never forget Arvin's generosity.

lt means a great deal to me.

And no legal action is planned at this time.

However, l do believe the community...

should know about the police
department's exploitation of Virginia...

in last night's failed arrest attempt.

l mean, she walked the tightrope.
Where were they with the net?

Thank you. That's all.

[Reporters chattering]

Exploitation?

The king of the gutter
is barfing out accusations of exploitation.

You call it exploitation, Sikes.
l call it seizing the moment.

Seizing it?
How about sleazing the moment?

Sikes!

Did you watch the tape l sent?
Did you like it?

-No.
-No?

No, what? You didn't like it,
or you didn't watch it?

l didn't watch it.

Funny. Nobody ever does.

GEORGE: lt's just a matter of time.

We need to talk.

-Kill it.
-Matt, we're filming.

l'm sorry. l hate it when people get
in the way. Come on.

You know what? l have a feeling
you are just mean with envy.

The word is ''green,'' George.

lf it's the lack of exposure,
l'll put in a good word with Renee...

get you some coverage.

l'm not ticked off
because l'm not on a Wheaties box.

l'm ticked off because she screwed up
our stakeout.

An electronic malfunction like that
could happen to anyone.

-l got your malfunction.
-You're mad 'cause...

of all my scheduling conflicts
you've had to deal with.

All in all, l'd say it's a small price to pay...

-for a much higher objective.
-What is that, a new wardrobe for you?

Exposure.

A small piece of recognition for
my species...

that says, ''Slags are people, too.''

You know damn well
l got nothing against that.

But we're partners,
and l'm tired of dancing solo.

-Matt, l--
-Damn it!

The Commissioner is chewing my ass red.
You didn't even trace the call?

Let's say we had a couple of malfunctions
in our way that we didn't count on.

-No, let's just say you blew it!
-We blew it.

Getting a little touchy, are we Sikes?
All right, l'm sorry.

You have spearheaded this case...

but it isn't like Francisco
hasn't been filling other commitments.

l saw your installment last night.
You came off like a pro.

l thought your segment
was very compelling, Captain.

lf the mutual admiration society
doesn't mind, l got dirt to till.

l'm gonna get Denton's telephone records.

Good. Because the credit card number
used last night was just verified.

Denton.

l think l'll keep my eye on him,
see where he spits.

Feel up to a house call, George,
or do you have a makeup call?

Francisco's giving a tour of the Academy
this morning, if that's okay with you.

-Keep me informed.
-Sure, Bry. Film at 1 1 :00.

Thanks, Dad.

More pre-podial amino regurgitation?

l think l'm going to lie down.

Really, Susan, it would be wonderful if you
could take part in the pinata bashing.

Yes, it would look better.

Well, the show must go on.

-You okay, Em?
-Don't you mean Amelia?

Some guest of honor,
the woman can't even get my name right.

Come on, it can't be that bad.
Want to go grab some cake?

Renee said
nobody but the caterer can cut it.

Something about being union.

At least you hit the jackpot
with all these presents, huh?

They're all empty. Renee brought them.

Come on, some of your friends
must have brought you presents.

Buck, look around.
Only one of my friends is here...

and she didn't bring a present,
because my real party is next week.

Emily.

Emily, come on, birthday girl.
Come on, have a turn.

[Cheerful birthday song playing on stereo]

Come on, Em. Big smile now.
Be happy. lt's your happy day.

l don't believe you.
l don't think you care at all.

Emily, you've been moping around all day.
ls this any way to act at your party?

l didn't want this party.

The camera is on. Now please...

try to have a good time.

-Play the game.
-No!

Kill it.

l don't want this party!

CAMERAMAN: Are we gonna have to
do this again or what?

Do we have another pinata?

l can't hold this amino oozing anymore.

Excuse me.

Emily!

l would think of all days, your birthday,
you could act your age.

But it isn't my birthday, remember?

Buck was right.
We might as well be animals in the zoo.

-Emily.
-l'm sorry.

But l just couldn't act like
l was having a good time...

and act like you've been
ever since you've been on the news.

-Act?
-Yes.

Every time Renee says ''smile,'' we smile.

l just couldn't smile anymore.

But l thought you liked the idea
of having your birthday on TV.

l knew it was real important to you, but...

none of it was real.

lt's pretty hard to know
what is real anymore.

Really, Matt. lt's an all-night,
all-singles laundromat.

People go there to find mates
for themselves and their socks.

l don't mean to be blunt, Matt, but ever
since l came down here to do my laundry...

l've had this feeling that....

lt's a human term...

that you've been undressing me
with your eyes.

Me?

Come on.

-Then you weren't?
-No!

l got to go.

l didn't mean to chase you off.

And l didn't mean to lie.

l was doing what you said.

This wouldn't have anything to do
with that videotape, would it?

No.

Yeah.

lt was pretty explicit.

There were a lot
of Newcomer women and....

And you've never seen that before.

Well, my wash is done.
The machines are all yours.

l get curious, too, Matt.

l've even rented erotic human tapes...

for that very reason.

You?

l got curious about the human body.

l've undressed you a couple of times.

You have?

Yeah.

Well.... Yeah.

MATT: Piesman, l ordered
Denton's phone records yesterday.

They've been sitting on your desk
underneath your dry cleaning?

Yeah. Send them down.

And Piesman,
you're supposed to hang up dry cleaning...

kind of like l'm doing with this phone.

Well, if it isn't the invisible man.

Where's your shadow?

Renee and the crew are
in the booking area.

What'd you do today, George,
get your star on Hollywood Boulevard?

The crew and l spent the day
in the Police Chief's anteroom.

-We never did get in to see him.
-Fame's a fickle woman.

Matt.

l'm sorry for these last few days.
l've behaved very badly.

Emily has opened my eyes to that.

l convinced myself that l was doing this
for a much higher good...

but l've let myself be used
at the expense of my...

family, my work, and you.

Look, George,
it could've happened to anyone.

lt's a meat grinder,
but who's to say who's using who?

You were just seizing the moment,
that's all.

Jeez, l think l just quoted Arvin Kaufman.

About time. Thanks.

-Denton's phone records?
-Yeah.

Bingo.

He's been lying like a stiff at the morgue.
Look at all these calls to the sex line.

Matt, this number,
Arvin Kaufman's home phone.

There's been several calls
from Denton's home to Kaufman's home.

-All in the last 24 hours.
-All since Virginia's been staying there.

Sounds like someone's obsessed
with Virginia, can't leave her alone.

l think we should go speak
with Mr. Denton.

All right, get the film crew.

l thought we could slip out the back.

Ernie was on the phone,
yelling at his brother-in-law John.

l don't know what about.

He roared away when l came over,
but he left that box on the workbench.

-Virginia's driver's license.
-He could be heading for her at Kaufman's.

And if he is, we may have trouble.

This is useless.
All the phone lines are dead.

-We've got cause. Call for backup.
-Right.

We're going to have
to find another way, George.

No, there's no time. We go over.

You ever hear of the Berlin Wall, George?
The one they bulldozed back in '90?

lt was half this tall. How many people
do you think just scampered over that?

How many of those people
were Newcomers?

Come on, l'll give you a boost.

Try anything once. Okay.

[Matt yells]

Nice boost, George.

-Sorry.
-Let's go.

Don't move.

Didn't know you were
in the window business, Ernie old pal.

-lt's not what you think.
-lt never is. Spread 'em.

Did you find his gun?

No, he's clean. Must have dropped it.

l don't have it. Damn it!
Will you listen to me?

l came here to protect Virginia,
not to hurt her.

l don't have any time--

[Virginia screams]

Oh, my God.

-Ms. Hamm?
-Virginia?

[Virginia screams]

Police, freeze! Drop it!

On your knees, hands behind your back.

Wonderful. lt's Denton's kid.

MATT: You're both under arrest.

GEORGE: You have the right
to remain silent.

lf you give up that right...

anything you say can and will
be used against you in a court of law.

Louis, why?

Why did you do these things?

l don't know. We were just having fun.

Fun? You hurt people.

That's what she does on the videotape.
She likes it.

That's not real.

You took your father's gun.

-Were you going to hurt her?
-l don't know.

lt's like she was teasing us.
She was asking for it.

She was asking for it?
That's all you have to say for yourself?

Ernie...

we should've seen this coming.

He's always in trouble now,
picking fights at school...

the way he's cruel to his sister.

l just don't know.

All right, come on.

You take your shot with kids, put a roof
over their heads, and hope they turn out.

Till guys like him come along
and pollute their minds.

You know what they say about people
who live in glass houses?

-l gave my kid everything.
-Yeah.

Nudie calendars, slasher movies,
a little Voyeur Vision...

over the old man's shoulder.
You gave him everything, all right.

We have a good home. We're hardworking.

lt's not just money, it's responsibility.

lt's parental supervision.

You ask any shrink around here,
he'll tell you...

a lot of boys get their first dose of sex...

from those violent slasher
and porn movies.

Give that to a kid who's
already got problems. Look what you get?

Let's go home, Ernie.

So you got all the answers, cop?

-Well, my family's not like that.
-Let's go home, Ernie.

Their statements are complete.

You're free to go.

You hit it right on the head, Sikes,
and it's pitiful.

You know, parents spend more time
watching television...

than they do paying attention
to what their kids do.

And when the kids aren't perfect,
they point at me.

But l have a right to sell it,
and they have a right not to buy it.

Yeah.

l don't know about right and wrong,
but what you do stinks.

-Let's go.
-No.

Arvin,
SFL is not worth what l saw tonight.

There are lots
of talented actresses out there.

l'll be all right.

Well, now you see him, now you don't.

Nice piece of evasiveness, Det. Francisco.

Please understand,
there was no time to bring you in tow.

No time?

The conclusion to the case
we've been covering on you all week...

and you had no time?

l built you an image,
made you a hero to the people of LA...

stuck half of Parker Center
in your back pocket.

-And this is the thanks l get?
-Ms. Longstreet.

No, forget the apology. l still have
to salvage something out of this.

Bernie, come on, we still got
to get a couple of shots of the kids...

before they take them
to juvenile detention.

-No way. You don't get the kids.
-You can't film them. They're minors.

-lt's news.
-lt's exploitive and you know it.

-Really?
-l'm not defending what they did...

but the blame
is not entirely theirs to take.

Look, lady, it's just a twisted mess
of sex and violence.

Kaufman sells it, Virginia sells it--

And like it or not, Ms. Eyewitness News,
in your own glossy way...

you sell it, too.

[Knocking on door]

-Hi.
-Hi.

-Come on in.
-No. l just wanted to give you this.

Not another Arvin Kaufman Presents?

No. This was produced
by the University Med School.

-You mean on Newcomer sexuality?
-You can rent it in any video store.

lt may not have the flash and flare
of what Kaufman produces...

but l'll guarantee,
it's a lot more true to life.

Great.

You'll probably want to watch it
by yourself.

Yeah, probably the best way to go.

-lf you have any questions....
-Thanks.
