I didnt know wedding dress shopping could be so fun.

JANKO: For who?

Come on, you look beautiful

in everything.

With a little more champagne, I might want to try one on.

Not so fast. Youre not getting married

before youre 30.

You did.

Yeah. Exactly.

JANKO: Ive never met Jack.

Do you guys get along?

We got along great

when we were both in the D.A.s office.

We couldnt get enough of each other.

But then when he became

a defense attorney, we never saw each other, and it...

just went south from there.

Because you never saw him,

or because you guys didnt work together anymore?

A little bit of both.

Oh.

So... everything was good

up until you guys decided to stop working together?

Mm, its a little more complicated than that.

Oh.

Do you need help in there?

(Erin and Nicky gasp)

Beautiful!

Gorgeous! Just...

wow!

Wow.

ERIN: Ah,

so gorgeous.

Oh, wow, thats...

its-its too much.

Yeah, thats... thats a little pricey.

But you only live once.

Right.

Yes. Shes right. You should get it.

NICKY: Definitely.

You think?

Yes.

Yes.

ERIN: How do you feel?

(laughs): I dont know.

Huh?

BAKER: Heres your schedule for the rest of the day.

What about it?

So, theres your 11:00 a.m.

Well, thats a conflict right there. Okay.

We got to move...

Push that.

Detective Baker. Lieutenant Gormley.

Frank.

Nice turnout-- but you always bring a crowd.

Anything I can do to help.

Well, we... we happen to be shy a few volunteers

to be pen pals to the incarcerated.

Oh, Im kind of busy putting them away, Kevin.

Im not sure Id also have the time to write to them.

Well, its either that or sign up

for the soup kitchen every other Sunday.

Well, Ill let you know.

Guy over there glad-handing,

theres something about him.

Aw, its just the old cop in me.

What awards he getting?

Youre kidding.

Nope.

The Saint Teresa Award, which you endorsed him for.

The hell I did.

Excuse me?

The heck

I did.

Frank, your face

and your quotes praising his work

are plastered all over his website.

Introduce me.

Liam.

You know Commissioner Reagan, of course.

(chuckles): Well...

who doesnt?

But I dont know you.

So, howd the dress shopping go?

Fun. Expensive.

Nostalgic.

Nostalgic for your own?

Yeah. I had so much fun at ours.

I had fun at mine, too, but...

it was

so

over-the-top.

I mean, we literally came up through the floor.

Smoke machines, the whole bit.

We had a five-piece band at ours.

We danced the whole night.

Who knew it was all downhill from there?

It wasnt

all

downhill.

Jack.

Frank,

Henry, Joe...

Danny and Jamie-- I had warnings from all five of them.

You did not.

I did.

I swear.

They are a tough bunch.

JACK: Imagine marrying their only daughter

and sister.

Im lucky Im alive to tell it.

What brings you down here?

I was wondering if you could look into a friends complaint.

She was robbed about two weeks ago.

Is there a suspect in custody?

No arrests. And she, uh, she tried following up,

but shes getting the runaround.

We can look into it.

Thatd be great. I appreciate it.

And her names Collette Dawkins.

If we find something, well give you a call.

Thanks.

Mm-hmm.

Do not say it, Erin.

Just please look into it.

I dont know why you always fall for this guy.

Im not falling for anything.

He asked for assistance in a case.

That guys always got an angle.

Its a white dress with a sweetheart neckline.

I thought you werent supposed to tell me what it looks like.

Do you have any idea what a sweetheart neckline is?

None.

Exactly.

I cant help it, Im just so excited.

Not as excited as you seem to be

that Im your driver today.

It just kind of threw me when you volunteered.

I thought youd be happy.

(sighs)

Dont you miss

riding together sometimes?

Yes.

Stop, please!

(tires screech)

I need help! I need help!

Hey, what happened?

He collapsed.

I called 911, but theyre not here.

Okay, okay.

Did he choke on anything?

No.

Please, do something.

Lets get him to St. Benjamins. Come on.

Okay, okay.

I got you.

Here, let me get you in the front.

Whats his name?

Jeremy.

Hey, Jeremy, you there? You in there, bud?

Hail Mary...

(siren wailing)

23-year-old Meredith Davis. Lives alone.

Found her about 20 minutes ago.

Suicide note?

I didnt see one.

No forced entry. No.

And the super let us in.

BAEZ: Were gonna need to talk to him.

WOMAN: Excuse me.

OFFICER: Maam. Maam!

WOMAN: Officer, Im her mother.

Maam, I cant...

Meredith. Meredith?

She blew past me.

My daughter?

Were very sorry, maam.

Youre not gonna want to go in there.

Looks like a suicide.

(gasping, shuddering)

Officer Reyes, please escort her down.

Have an EMS look at her, help her out.

Come with me, please.

(stammering, sobbing)

Come with me.

Theres a woman outside

that says she has some information about the victim.

Great. Why dont you let her in, too?

The woman over there. Names Maggie Gibson.

She claims she knows what happened to the vic.

All right. Thanks.

Excuse me, miss. Detective Reagan.

This is my partner, Detective Baez.

Were told you have some information

that might be helpful to us.

Yes.

The young woman upstairs, the one that killed herself?

Mm-hmm.

She didnt die from suicide.

She was murdered.

Are you a family member?

Im just a concerned citizen.

Do you even know the woman upstairs? No.

Yet you know that she was murdered.

Im positive.

Uh-huh. And you know this how?

Because she told me.

She told you that somebody wanted to kill her?

She told me that somebody did kill her.

Are you saying you talk to the dead?

Actually, the dead talk to me.

(clears throat)

And youre convinced that our suicide is actually a homicide?

No question.

And you know this because after she was killed,

she told you that she was murdered.

Im a medium.

In my world, thats called a scam artist.

Im not looking for money, Im looking for justice.

Right. Justice for a woman that you dont know

and you never met.

Thats right.

Not for nothing,

but the only people who show up at a crime scene

are typically the friends and family,

which weve already established youre not,

or psychos, or the perp.

So, which one are you?

Neither.

Where were you between the hours

of 5:00 and 9:00 a.m. today?

I was at my apartment on 69th, a few blocks away.

Anyone we can check that with?

This has all my information.

Please feel free to check whatever you like.

Can I speak with the family?

No. Leave the family alone.

The locket is important.

What locket?

The locket she was wearing when she died.

You find that locket, youll find the killer.

♪

(sighs) And whats this guys scam?

GORMLEY: Grand larceny.

Posing as a charity that helps people

who couldnt otherwise afford it to check something

off their bucket list before they die.

And the money comes from...

Private and public grants,

crowdfunding websites and social media.

And were certain that goes into his pocket?

We havent had time to track down

all his alleged good deeds, but safe to assume.

Does he have a record?

28 months for a previous grand larceny.

Do you want to know what you said?

No.

"There is no more worthy charity

"than the Last Hurrah,

and no more charitable man than Liam Norris."

Okay.

Oh, and I want to know the minute he gets here.

Hes here.

Hes early.

His temperature?

Hot.

Oh, boy.

Ill just go...

I want this guy Norris prosecuted

to the full extent of the law.

Well, I guess that answers my question

about whether the archdiocese wants to press charges.

Just make sure he gets put away for the max.

Well, look, if he skimmed more than $1,000

off his bogus charity--

and Ill bet 1,000 that he did--

hes likely guilty of grand larceny.

Good.

And what is with the fire and brimstone, Kevin?

He lied.

(scoffs) He used the Church for his own good.

And I thought he was helping people,

not rewarding himself.

Frank,

this story simply cannot get out.

You mean the one where you dont vet the people

you give awards to?

There were testimonials, there were photos,

there were videos.

I-I dont want to see myself on the front page of the paper

being mocked for giving a humanitarian award to a shyster.

The Catholic Church cant afford any more bad publicity.

This is not that.

Do I have to explain to you, of all people,

how much, well, how much good the Church does

for the impoverished of this city?

Then why are you, Kevin?

Do you realize how bad this is gonna look if it gets out?

How much its going to damage the good that we do?

Who is gonna want to support the charities we run

that feed the poor and house the homeless?

Look, its most likely gonna end up in a plea deal.

Hell do jail time cause of his record,

no trial, and hopefully no story.

"Hopefully"?

Well, I cant promise.

But Ill do everything I can

to keep it out of the paper.

Youve got to do

more than that, Frank.

I can no longer tolerate people using the Church

for their own profit.

Thanks for dropping by.

Mrs. Rodriguez?

Weve stabilized him.

(sighs)

But he couldve died.

Why didnt he have his insulin?

Hes diabetic?

He was in diabetic shock

because he didnt get an insulin shot today.

I gave it to him this morning.

Lets see the insulin that you gave him.

Uh, its at home.

I need to see my son.

JAMIE: If you give us permission to go

and get the insulin,

then you can stay here and see your son.

Whatever, its in the kitchen.

(keys jangle)

I just want to see Jeremy, please.

Stay with her at all times.

It could be an honest mistake.

She lied.

I want ACS on this.

Well notify Child Services.

Great, cause we need to protect him

from his own mother.

Thank you for coming in.

So, you believe she-she would never...

Youll look into it, right?

I promise you, as soon as we get any more information,

well call you right away.

You see this locket?

She never took it off.

It was my grandmothers and then my mothers

and mine. I gave it to her on her 21st birthday.

And its missing.

Okay, um...

well see what we can do.

Do you mind if we hold onto this?

Gonna have this officer take you home, all right?

Thank you.

Youre welcome.

Danny.

Its a coincidence. Come on.

Theres no signs of forced entry,

and this girl, she had a history of problems

with nobody anywhere, ever.

Yeah, but we dont have a suicide note, either.

Is there any security cameras on the building?

None that work, so I have security footage

from surrounding buildings.

Ill get the popcorn.

Did anyone

ever tell you that youre really annoying?

Pretty much everyone.

You have called me

five times about Meredith Daviss autopsy,

including on my personal phone.

And did you come down here to tell me that I annoy you,

or do you have some information about that autopsy?

I came here to tell you that Meredith Davis

had a contusion on her head.

Postmortem.

No.

So youre saying

she got into a fight before she died?

Im saying that she sustained blunt force trauma to her head.

Figuring out if thats accidental or intentional

is your job.

Okay. Thanks for coming down.

Stop calling me.

And thats when he punched me in the face.

Can you send me a copy of this?

Of course.

How do you know Jack?

Social media.

Social media. Hows that?

You meet on Facebook or something?

OkCupid.

Youre dating him?

We went on some dates.

Are you two serious?

Hes got his eye on someone else.

If she was hit hard enough,

maybe she went unconscious.

Yeah.

But then shed have to get hoisted up there

and make it look like a suicide.

Youd have to stand on something,

which could be possible.

Hey, while youre here, why dont you, uh,

dust off the toilet seat

and the, uh, bathtub.

See if theres another footprint

that doesnt belong to Meredith.

♪

Danny.

Looks a little big

for Merediths foot, dont you think?

Huh.

Maybe the mothers intuition was right.

Or the mediums.

Thank you so much for inviting me up, Commissioner.

I cant tell you what an honor it is.

Im afraid that perhaps you and I got off on the wrong foot.

Perhaps.

Look, I understand...

You have committed

criminal impersonation and identity theft

against the New York City Police Commissioner

and the Catholic Church, and that is just for starters.

Nah.

No, no. May I sit?

Nah.

Okay.

Oh, I, uh, brought you a token of my esteem.

You know, this is all a big misunderstanding.

Now, my charity helps worthy cases

fulfill their dreams.

When this is cleared up, youll be thanking me.

For using my name without my knowledge or permission?

I bet you would endorse my foundation

once you understand what we do.

Oh, I understand what you do.

Youre a grifter.

No, I am an imperfect man

who changed his ways before it was too late.

And I decided that my legacy

would be to help others check a box on their bucket list.

Good. So, you will give us your financial records.

Well, you keep in mind

that every foundation pays their employees.

Youre the only employee.

I have overhead.

And I have lawyers, as does the archbishop,

and charges we can press.

And what good would come of that?

I am giving you 24 hours

to submit your charitys financial statements.

I have nothing to hide.

Is everything out of your mouth a lie?

That must be exhausting.

Thank you, Commissioner. I wont let you down.

I wont hold my breath.

JANKO:

Just saying, what if we didnt work together anymore?

What if we werent in the same profession

and in the same station house?

And?

Well, what if this,

our-our chemistry, our relationship,

what if thats what its based on? On work?

And what if we didnt have that?

Eddie, where is this coming from?

Is that why you wanted us to ride together today?

Me? No. Course not.

Im just saying...

Doc.

Doctor,

did you get the test results back?

Weve examined the vial and the syringe

that you found at the apartment.

Mm-hmm.

Neither of them

contained traces of insulin.

Could there be a mistake with the medication?

I see parents neglect their kids every damn day of the week.

Ive admitted him to the pediatric ward.

At least there I know hes safe. For now.

(elevator bell dings)

(sighs)

My assistant said you called. I was in court.

Yeah, so she said.

Hey, I-I really appreciate your help with the Dawkins case.

I bet you do.

Something wrong?

You could have mentioned shes your girlfriend.

Shes not my girlfriend. Shes my ex.

"Ex" as in...?

Uh, as in we dated for a while.

A while?

Maybe half a dozen dates.

Uh, thats what single men do, Erin. We date.

Yeah, you left that part out.

I asked you

to help because she was victimized

and no one was doing anything about it.

Jack to the rescue.

I really dont know what youre mad about.

Youre dishonest, Jack.

Every time I start trusting you,

you do something like this.

Every single time.

Whered you get the insulin?

I dont have to talk to you.

Your son couldve died.

Leave me alone. Im working.

All right, we leave you alone, youre gonna end up

in an interrogation room

charged with endangering the welfare of your child.

Is that what you want?

I gave him the insulin, and no one believes me.

You gave him water.

What are you talking about?

We tested it. You injected Jeremy with water.

I bought insulin.

Insulin costs $191

for one vial. Im a single mom.

I dont have health insurance. You do the math.

Well, whod you buy it from?

Someone told me I can get prescriptions cheaper online.

So I did. I paid cash.

He met me in Williamsburg,

gave me the insulin and disappeared.

Who? You have his number?

(voice breaking): A woman from Child Services

told me that theyre gonna take my son away from me.

Not if you can help us prove it wasnt your fault.

I would never do anything to hurt him.

Never.

We believe you.

Thats where I bought it from.

What do you got?

Crime scene got the shoe print, and a few specs of blood,

but no fingerprints other than Merediths.

How about a match on the blood?

Its a partial profile, which is gonna make it impossible

to pinpoint the suspect.

Impossible? Nothings impossible.

Weve been up against greater odds before, believe me.

Okay, well, not impossible, but a little help would be nice.

Help? What do you mean, help?

I asked Maggie to meet us at the apartment.

Maggie.

The medium.

I know who she is.

You really want to encourage that whacko?

She said shed get a better read if she was in the place

where the crime took place.

Great. Maybe we should bring some tarot cards,

and they might tell us who killed Meredith Davis.

MAGGIE: There was a struggle...

DANNY: Which is what typically occurs

between two people when ones trying to kill the other one.

He was trying to kiss her, and she hit him.

She hit him here. He was bleeding, here.

And then, she went for the phone,

he grabbed her, he pushed her.

She didnt want to die.

Yeah, most people dont.

He has her locket.

You cant give us any kind of description of him?

No, just a, a uniform.

A gray uniform. Thats all I know.

Okay, well, how about a name?

First name, last name, a name on the uniform,

of the company he worked for?

Cause thats what would really be helpful here.

Right. Well, it doesnt work that way.

Oh, okay. How does it work?

Oh, right. You prey on people when theyre most vulnerable.

Im sorry that you dont believe,

but thats your problem, not mine.

My only problem is that youre wasting our time

with all this mumbo jumbo.

Okay, we have a case

to solve here, and we got work to do, so, Im done.

You know,

I find that people who dont believe in my gift are the ones

that are most afraid of it.

Im not afraid of your gift, okay?

Like I said, I got work to do.

Whos Linda?

What did you say to me?

Is that your wife?

You should probably go.

Danny...

No. Really.

You should go.

This is Antoine Reynard, 26, from Rosedale, Queens.

Thats the guy who robbed your ex.

I picked him up this morning.

We can charge him with robbery in the second degree

and assault if your friend can ID him.

Thank you, Anthony.

Im sure Collette will be very, very grateful.

You two need anything else?

I got work to do on a case.

Which one?

Any.

Ill make one up.

Take care, Jack.

Thanks again.

I just want you to know

that I had no ulterior motives in this case.

I wanted to help her out because it was the right thing to do.

Oh, please.

Sorry.

Do the Reagans have a monopoly

on good deeds to, uh... to fit in with the self-righteousness?

Dont make this about my family, Jack.

Im a single man. Im allowed to date.

Didnt say you couldnt.

Then, what is the problem?

I cant be expected to be faithful

if you and I are not even in a relationship.

Right. We just have booty calls.

Erin,

I dont understand what you are mad at here.

Why couldnt you have just said, "Shes my ex"?

Because

I didnt think it was relevant.

You didnt think it was a problem

to ask me to get involved in a criminal case

where the victim is your girlfriend

so you can make points with her?

The only woman

that Ive ever tried to make points with is you.

But it is impossible

to live up to your expectations.

And-and thats the Reagan way.

You raise the bar so high

that absolutely nobody can live up to it.

Hey, mission accomplished.

I dont know. I just dont believe it.

JANKO: Well, what about

those psychics that help police close cold murder cases?

Baloney.

So, you think the medium is scamming you?

Yes, pretty much.

NICKY: But wait a minute.

What is she really getting out of it

if shes not making any money off of it?

I dont know what shes getting out of it.

Maybe attention. Who knows?

Not all scams are about money.

Disagree. Well, I got a guy running a fake charity,

I could care less what his motivation is.

Is that that bucket list thing you were talking about?

Yeah.

See, that Im all in.

I love bucket lists.

Whats on yours?

Nothings on my bucket list.

Nothing?

Got everything I want, seen too much as it is.

(laughs)

DANNY: Im with you, Dad.

Though with all the speeding through the streets of New York

Ive done in my career, I would like to try my hand at Le Mans.

(laughter)

Thats it?

Its in France,

and Id have to drive for Team Porsche. Thats a lot.

I got at least a dozen things that I want to do.

Youre 16. Id hope so.

Such as?

Skydive over Mount Everest.

Ski the Alps.

DANNY: Hmm. Thats great.

Except you dont ski.

Ill learn.

Id like to sing backup at a Taylor Swift concert.

Oh.

Id like to surf in Tahiti.

I would also like a million followers on Instagram.

SEAN: Know a great way to do that?

Skydive over

Mount Everest.

(laughter)

JAMIE: Also,

I want to sleep in one of those huts

on the water in Bora Bora.

Mm. Mm.

Well, a real nature boy, arent you?

We could do that on our honeymoon.

HENRY: Just dont have

the ceremony there.

I dont want to travel that far for it.

What about you, Pop?

Top of my bucket list?

Mm-hmm.

Dont kick the bucket.

(laughter)

Come on.

Well, I always wanted to visit the Vatican.

Well, Betty and I-- we were supposed

to do it on our 50th,

but, uh, then she got sick,

and, uh, we had to cancel.

Did you know

Pop always wanted to go to the Vatican?

You know, he never mentioned it.

Thats my biggest fear--

that Ill get old and regret the things I didnt do.

Anything in particular?

You know, our jobs--

one of the side effects is that it makes us doubt everyone,

even the ones closest to us.

Occupational hazard.

I know you dont like Jack.

That is correct.

Sorry.

I know you have a soft spot for him, always have.

It just makes me wonder if maybe part of the problem

was the way I handled things with him.

Strike first, and ask questions later.

No, you have high expectations.

Theres nothing wrong with that.

Were just so trained to look for the bad in people

that maybe if we let it...

it stops us from seeing the good.

Youre saying our jobs can make us immune

to seeing the good in people?

Im saying thats the danger.

Jack accused me of having expectations

that were unrealistic.

(laughs)

And what do you think?

(sighs)

I think its not so much about lowering standards

as it is...

admitting that no ones perfect.

Least of all us.

Mrs. Rodriguez.

Uh, you didnt have to come all the way down here.

When I saw your message...

I just wanted you to know

that we confirmed your story about the fake drugs.

You arrested them?

Lets just say were working on it.

Oh, thank God.

I was so worried you wouldnt believe me and Id lose my son.

I just hope that you can help us, testify against them.

I will, whatever I can do.

How can I thank you for all youve done?

Please.

And your partner, too.

And for that incredible donation.

Donation?

You both have been so generous.

Just, just...

All right, okay.

Have you been here all night?

Only since midnight.

Its 8:00 a.m.

Yeah, well, couldnt sleep.

Had six more hours of video surveillance to go through.

Somebody had to do it,

so I did it.

Well, why didnt you call me?

Danny, Im really sorry I dragged a medium into this.

It was so stupid.

Its okay.

But when she mentioned Linda...

Its okay.

I made a little discovery last night.

Theres a, uh, food delivery service.

They deliver to Merediths neighbor in apartment 2B.

And...?

A security camera

up the block recorded footage of the van.

I ran the plates.

The driver of the route that day was Steven Nagy.

Okay?

Steven Nagy, registered sex offender.

You just have to sign here,

stating that you IDd number three

as the person who robbed and assaulted you.

You have no idea what this incident did to me.

I am so happy its over.

Well, Im glad we could help.

I dont know how to thank you.

Well, Jacks the one you should really be thanking.

Funny, he said the same thing about you

when I tried to thank him.

You two should really get together already.

What... what is that supposed to mean?

DAWKINS: Even when we dated,

all he talked about was you.

Its the reason I broke up with him.

Its like there were three of us in the relationship.

Keys...

Howd it go?

14 arrests.

Im so stoked we were able to shut them down.

No other mother has to go through

what Mrs. Rodriguez had to.

And, miraculously,

she received a donation covering the next years worth

of insulin.

Oh, really?

Thats nice.

Would you know anything about that?

I decided I didnt need the most expensive dress in the shop.

And that is exactly why I love you.

Not because we work in the same place

or at the same job or in the same building.

Besides, if I just wanted

to date a female cop, theres plenty in this precinct

to choose from.

Oh, Id like to hit you so bad right now.

But you cant.

But you can meet me at Donovans in an hour.

You can hit me there.

DANNY: Uh, were looking

for information on a Steve Nagy. He work here?

Uh, hes been with us about six months.

Six months. Uh, okay. How about on, uh, January 8th?

You have any records if he worked that day?

Uh, he worked that day,

but he left early cause he got injured.

Injured how? He got a gash

on his cheek, from a branch that fell on him.

Hmm. Okay, uh, is he working today?

Wed like to talk to him.

Um, he starts work in five minutes,

so he should be here any minute now.

Thanks.

Steve Nagy?

Detective Reagan, my partner,

Detective Baez. You mind stepping out of the vehicle?

We got a few questions.

Hey. Hey. Hey!

Hey!

(tires screeching)

What are you doing?

Im calling his cell phone.

(phone ringing)

Stop following me.

We just want to talk to you, Steven, thats it.

You want to arrest me.

(tires screeching)

Hang on.

Why dont we both just slow down

and we can talk about this face-to-face?

I swear to God, I didnt mean it.

You didnt mean what?

(horns honking)

DANNY: Hey, slow down your car.

Okay? Just pull over and lets talk about it.

(shouts)

He still there?

I just wanted her to stop screaming.

Okay, Steve, look, take it easy.

Okay, well talk it out together.

Well figure something out, okay?

Now, heres what I need you to do.

I want you to turn off the ignition,

throw the keys out the window,

put your hands on the dashboard, all right?

Can you tell her family... that Im sorry?

No, youre gonna tell her family that yourself,

you understand me?

(gasps)

Steve?

Hes gone.

Dont worry, Im not working.

They froze all my assets.

I did that.

Are any of those pictures real?

Did you come all the way out here just to rub it in?

It was on my bucket list.

All of em.

And I got the notes to go with them.

Well, then Id have to hire a handwriting expert to verify.

Okay. You know, Im just gonna

stand here and take it, does that work for you?

Yeah, that works.

Vince DAmato, 29th Infantry

at D-Day, Omaha Beach.

You got him, two of his vet buddies airfare and a driver

to the American Cemetery over there

about a month before the cancer took him.

Yes, I did. You saying I didnt?

No.

Heres what I dont get.

Instead of just having them driven there,

you had the driver take them down to the beach

so that they could climb up the bluffs,

same as they did in 44.

And then you arranged for the guards

to look the other way when they came over the wall.

Who does that?

They said it was something theyd really remember.

Well, Im sure they did.

What I mean is, who thinks like that?

Well, me. So?

Well, it seems you have some good in you, Mr. Norris.

You used that vivid imagination

of yours to go above and beyond

what those old men could possibly imagine.

And in doing so, you gave them,

pretty much, a last hurrah.

Is this a trap?

You will return all the money you got,

minus a reasonable salary.

Agree to probation

and two years community service.

Which you can work off at the Last Hurrah,

which will be run by an outside agency, not you.

No jail time?

Well, if you dont abide by the conditions,

the charges will be reinstated immediately.

You will be looking at a lengthy sentence.

Dont blow it.

Why are you doing this for me?

(inhales)

Well, someone I know and trust reminded me

that sometimes people deserve a second chance.

I dont know what to say.

Dont say anything.

Probably be a lie anyway.

Commissioner... thank you.

And that pen you gave me doesnt work.

(chuckles softly)

Ill have what hes having.

Howd you know I was here?

I followed the trail of broken hearts.

Very funny.

You were right, Jack.

Youre a single man and you can date whomever you want.

I just thought you could have given me

the history before I took the case.

And would you have rejected the case

if I had told you?

No.

But I may have given it to a junior A.D.A.

So, in the future,

if you need a favor for someone youre dating

or someone you want to impress,

maybe you can be a bit more forthcoming.

I will be more forthcoming.

Actually, no, dont ask me for favors

for people youre dating or you want to date.

Okay, done.

Is that it?

The, uh, requests?

No.

Okay.

Uh, what else do I have to do?

Have dinner with me.

I can do that.

I mean, go figure, the guy actually helped some people.

73, to be exact.

Where are you going with this?

Mr. Norris has agreed to a plea deal

for community service and probation.

If he keeps his nose clean, he wont do jail time.

Which is the exact opposite of what I asked.

Sorry.

Well, since when am I the man

looking for justice and retribution

and youre the one advocating leniency?

Hey, its your own fault; thats what 16 years

of Catholic school will do to you.

Well,

didnt Catholic school teach you to respect your elders?

Oh, dont give me that.

Frank, I asked for two things:

that Norris pay for his crimes

and that you keep it out of the press.

And I am keeping it out of the press.

And the archdiocese is going to fold

Last Hurrah into its charity umbrella.

We have enough charities.

Oh, come on, its in the black, Kevin,

and I cant think of better publicity for you.

And thats the end of it?

And Norris stays on.

Hes not trustworthy.

Well, hes a lost soul in need of saving.

Isnt that your guys bread and butter?

Thats a lot of asks.

Well, Im not done.

Could you get me an audience with the Pope?

For my dad?

Why wouldnt Henry ask me himself?

Because hed never ask.

And because its a surprise.

Ah.

Well, you ask a lot.

Its in giving that we receive.

Oh, now youre gonna quote St. Francis?

Hes as good a guy as any.

(chuckles) Well, in that spirit, congratulations, Frank.

You have just been chosen as the new chairperson

of the Rikers Island Pen Pal Committee.

Come on, Kevin, those inmates dont want to hear from me.

Meetings are every Monday at 8:00

in St. Stephens, starting next week.

See you then.

God bless.

(door opens, closes)

(doorbell chimes)

Oh, Detective Reagan.

Uh, do you want to come in?

No, no. Thank you.

Just wanted you to know we found Merediths killer.

In fact,

I just dropped off the locket to her mother.

Im happy that her family will know the truth.

Me, too.

We have something in common, you and I.

We do?

Mm-hmm.

We both speak for the dead.

Mm-hmm.

Well, the leads you gave us were very helpful.

So, thank you for that.

But youre still skeptical.

Lets just say I... prefer to stick to facts.

Before, when I brought up your wifes name, Im so sorry.

I didnt know that it would hit such a chord.

You know...

Not for nothing, but everybody knew about my wifes death.

I mean, it was all over the news,

you couldve looked it up.

But I didnt.

And she didnt die.

She was murdered.

I dont want your help.

I have no interest

in communicating with the dead, okay?

My wife knows how much I love her.

She says she loves you more.
