Hey, how'd your meeting go?

It's over, Donna.

Marie and I finally signed off

on a money settlement and a custody arrangement.

I feel like a thousand-pound weight's off my back.

Now you can get on with your life.

Yeah! Yeah. And that's how I feel, like, uh, like I can finally turn a page.

You look great today.

Thanks.

So do you.

(SNIFFS)

And that perfume you've been wearing, drives me wild.

Gregory! (EXHALES) Remember where we are.

I can't help it.

Whenever I'm around ya, I just... I just wanna...

Excuse me.

(SIGHS)

- Can you sign this for me right here? - (INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

Morning, Detective.

Counselor.

On the Andretti stabbings,

his lawyer's all over me for your paperwork.

Yeah, all right, well, here.

You can tell him that this is every piece of paper that I got,

except I'm still trying to find those two Kleenexes

I sneezed in at the crime scene.

Thanks.

Uh... (CLEARS THROAT) ...Counselor.

In terms of our conversation the other night,

I don't want you feeling pressured with that.

- I don't. - My point is, it's not imminent.

I mean, it doesn't have to be.

Could be way, way down the road, you know,

if you, uh, wanted that at all.

Andy, the nicest thing that's ever happened to me

is you asking me to be your wife.

I just want to settle into it before we make any decisions.

Well, that's... that's smart. That's good.

- FANCY: Andy. - ANDY: Uh, good morning.

- SYLVIA: Lieutenant. - FANCY: Hi, Sylvia.

- Um, Theresa Carlin... - Domestic abuse. Yeah, I took her 61.

She's a homicide. Neighbor found her body in her apartment.

Son of a bitch.

- Medavoy, Martinez, we got a homicide. - ANDY: I knew it.

That son of a bitch.

Detective Adrienne Lesniak.

I'm supposed to report to Lieutenant Fancy.

DONNA: I think he's busy just for the second.

LESNIAK: No problem.

ANDY: That son of a bitch killed her.

- Excuse us. - No problem.

(MUSIC CONCLUDES)

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

The Lower East Side's going to be a change from the 27.

I grew up in Bay Ridge, Lieutenant. I did my time in uniform in Bed-Stuy.

- I'm comfortable among the great unwashed. - (CHUCKLES)

(SIGHS) Lieutenant, on the reason I was transferred...

That's not my concern.

Unless it interferes with your work for me.

It won't. That relationship is finished.

(TELEPHONE BUZZING)

Yeah.

Yeah, okay.

We got another homicide.

- Excuse me a second. - Mm-hmm.

Thanks.

FANCY: Hey, John.

Sorry, Lieutenant. I took Janice to the probation hearing.

That domestic violence victim

- Andy worked a couple of weeks ago... - Mm-hmm.

...showed up a homicide.

- Mrs. Carlin. - Mm-hmm.

And we just had another homicide in Chinatown.

- Mm-hmm. - Um,

- that's the new transfer. Lesniak. - KELLY: Right. Okay,

- I'll work the Chinatown with her then. - Okay.

Lieutenant, you better take this.

DONNA: He'll be right with you.

Fancy.

Yeah. Okay.

That shooting in Chinatown...

an off duty cop.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

I'm going to ask you to work with Detective Sipowicz.

- Our PAA will give you the address. - LESNIAK: Okay.

Adrienne Lesniak, John Kelly.

- How do you do? - Hi.

Donna, give Detective Lesniak the address on Andy's homicide,

and have Medavoy and Martinez 10-1 the squad

- and move over to the Chinatown shooting. - DONNA: All right.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

FANCY: Who is he?

Paul Van Pool, Central Park Precinct.

He interrupted a burglary in progress, had his shield out.

We got a description of a male Asian

from a witness who tried to stop the shooter.

Guy slipped out of his jacket

and took off on foot towards Canal Street.

- FANCY: Is that the witness? - Right here. Yeah.

Hey John, take him back to the station house,

see what you can get.

Also, inventory the contents of the jacket.

And move that line back. Get those people out of here.

We're going to need a Chinese cop.

Yeah, I'll get, um, Harold Ng from the robbery squad.

Has anyone contacted the chaplain's unit on notification of kin?

- Not yet. - Okay. Let me go do that.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

MARTINEZ: Is there anything else?

FEMALE VOICE: The guy hit her all the time.

I heard her screaming on Christmas Eve, for God's sake.

But in terms of last night and this morning,

you didn't actually hear anything?

- No. - MARTINEZ: Okay, well, thanks.

- You've been very helpful. - Sure.

Detective Martinez? Adrienne Lesniak. I'm your relief.

Welcome aboard. Uh, Detective Medavoy already left.

Let me introduce you to Detective Sipowicz.

Make sure you get pictures of the glass on the floor there around that window

and that, uh, bogus ransack on the dresser.

- Andy, this is Detective Lesniak. - How you doing?

Fancy wants me on the canvas at that Chinatown shooting.

And the neighbor she says Mr. Carlin called her from work around 10:00 a.m.

and asked her to come over and put a note on the refrigerator

that he was going to be working late.

So that prick could establish his alibi.

Carlin told her neighbor he'd been calling his wife, but there was no answer.

The neighbor had a key, and she let herself in,

- and she found the body. - Okay.

- You better get over to Chinatown. - Okay.

- Nice meeting you. - LESNIAK: Same here.

So I understand you took

a domestic violence complaint on this victim.

Yeah.

(SIREN WAILING)

See, not all that damage is recent.

Her jaw is half off 'cause it's broken on both sides.

That's from about a month ago.

Eyes are swollen shut. See that chipped tooth? That's old.

Her husband gave her that after he lost his Super Bowl bet last year.

(SIGHS)

He really beat you to a pulp this time, didn't he, Theresa?

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

ANDY: All right, you finish taking statements around here,

and then canvass the block.

- Get to everybody, you understand? - Where are you going?

I'm going to pick up the husband, unless you got a problem with that.

No, I don't have a problem with that.

Then do me a favor, Detective Lesniak. Don't you worry where I'm going.

Just worry about what you got to do. Are you getting my drift?

Yes, I get your drift.

(FOOTSTEPS RECEDING)

All right, yeah, I'll hold. All right.

MARTINEZ: Donna, could you get me a pencil?

DONNA: Sure.

- You done with those notifications? - Yeah.

Where are you?

I got a sketch artist in there with the witness,

but he didn't get a very good look at him.

Contents of the jacket?

Uh, house key, Medavoy's making a copy of that,

and uh, we got a phone number on this guy Shen,

and a lottery ticket.

James is on the phone with the commission right now.

Lieutenant, we're getting a lot of calls from off duty cops

from the Central Park Precinct,

volunteering to help with the investigation.

Uh, take their names and tell them we'll contact them if we need them.

Okay.

- Hey, Johnny, how are you? - Hey, Harold.

- How's it going, Lieu? - How you doing, Harold?

Let me tell you, when I first hear a Chinese guy shoot a cop,

I say, "What, you kidding me?"

Chinese afraid of police. Must be real scumbag, you know?

We get him, we kick his ass, eh, Johnny?

Yeah, definitely. Definitely.

JAMES: Yeah, the lottery ticket was bought at the Chinese herb store on Mott Street.

Okay. James Martinez, Harold Ng from robbery.

- Nice to meet you. You new here? - Hi.

No.

I bust cases with all these guys.

John, Greg, Andy Sipowicz,

- you know, with these guys. - Keep me posted.

Yeah, okay. All right, Harold and I are going to talk to Shen.

When Greg gets back, you go to the herb store.

All right. We'll see if anyone can ID the sketch.

All right good. Harold, you know what?

You know, I think you need to speak a little slower

so people understand. You know what I mean?

- No problem. - KELLY: All right, buddy. Good.

- HAROLD: Let's do it. - Yeah.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Chef will be right out.

Johnny, you see Tommy Lew?

The famous heroin importer.

He's head of Top Sung Tong.

Chef not going to talk until Tommy give, "Okay."

So we need his permission to our job then.

I'll go over and explain the situation. Tong don't want police trouble.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Go talk to him.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

KELLY: Show him the number.

Tell him we know it's his.

Tell him we found it in the jacket at the crime scene.

Other chefs come to me. I help find work in Chinese restaurants.

I give them my number, they give me theirs.

You remember writing it on that piece of newspaper?

Yeah. The guy I write it for never tell me his name.

KELLY: Do you still have the number he gave you?

- Back in the kitchen. - KELLY: Let's go take look.

Hey, Harold, you think this is going to be okay with Tommy?

- He cooperating with us. - KELLY: Yeah. He's a great man.

(CROCKERY CLATTERING)

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

MARTINEZ: Nobody at the herb store could make an ID off the sketch.

MEDAVOY: Did you get anything off that phone number?

Traced it to a pay phone inside. Let's go.

- MEDAVOY: Hey, how you doing, Harold? - How are the wife and kids?

MEDAVOY: (CHUCKLES) The kids are fine. The wife and I are getting divorced.

HAROLD: Oh. After I divorced my second wife, she called first wife,

they get together, try to tell my third wife not to marry me.

She's almost told me to screw off.

Got to keep ex-wives apart, remember that.

(MAN SPEAKING CHINESE)

HAROLD: Excuse us.

That's it.

MARTINEZ: Should we start knocking on doors?

- You have that key, Greg? - Should we get a search warrant?

I don't want to waste a whole day on one

if this ain't the place.

Okay, why don't you guys grab some air?

A cop got shot, John.

None of us is going to have a problem with seeing what's in there.

You don't see what you don't have to see, Greg.

I'll be right outside. Go ahead.

All right. Be careful.

Come on, guys.

- (DOOR KNOCKS) - KELLY: Police.

(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)

KELLY: Anyone home?

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

Get the warrant.

KELLY: Hey! Hey! Yo! Hey! Hey! Stop!

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - Who's this guy? Who's this guy?

- Do we know this guy? - No.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

- You speak English? - (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE)

- (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE) - You speak English? What's he saying?

- HAROLD: He didn't do anything. - KELLY: Tell him who we are.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE)

- This is all he had on him. - (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE)

- Got him? - These keys match.

- The keys match. - HAROLD: Yeah. Let's go.

- (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE) - KELLY: Here we go.

We'll talk about it down at the station. Let's go.

Harold and I will do the interview.

You guys want to get started on that warrant?

Yeah, sure.

James, you want to get uh,

- get it started? - You got it.

Has Lieutenant Fancy said anything to you?

No. Maybe he's going to let it slide.

You know that Detective Lesniak, who just got transferred?

- You know why she got transferred? - Why?

Office romance.

Gregory, this is all my fault.

If anyone was in flagrante, it was me.

I should have kept this from happening,

but what did I do instead? I tempted you.

Look, whatever happens...

we're in this together.

I... I just can't imagine coming to work every day

- and not seeing you. - MALE VOICE: Hey, Detective.

I know what you gotta be thinking, Detective.

You... you busted me for beating Theresa.

You got to be thinking that I killed her.

I'm not going to lie to you, Victor.

I uh... (CLEARS THROAT) ...got a situation here

where there's a history of domestic violence.

Now the wife's dead. I... I got to consider you a suspect.

I know what it looks like, but I did not kill Theresa. I swear.

Yeah, look, the day we had our talk at that courthouse,

I, uh, I thought I got through to you.

With God as my witness, I never laid a hand on her after that.

I... You gave me a wake-up call, Detective.

You know, I was, uh, married myself once.

I know what it's like.

You get frustrated,

and sometimes you do things that afterwards you regret...

but... that's a... that's a long way from beating somebody to death.

I swear to God

I didn't kill her.

I loved her.

And we got this apparent break in at your place.

Used to be a nice street.

Now you got Africans, junkies.

I've been worried about something like this for a long time.

You see anybody suspicious when you left your apartment this morning?

Actually, I did.

I... I seen these two brothers hanging around

across the street at the liquor store.

Can you give me their description?

Black as the inside of your hat.

- Anything else about them you remember? - I don't know. Uh...

maybe I could look at some pictures.

How are you doing for time?

I mean, uh, you probably got a lot of arrangements to take care of.

Oh, no, Detective. I owe it to Theresa

to do whatever I can to help find whoever did this.

I called the ME to expedite the autopsy so your wife's remains

can be returned to you as soon as possible.

Oh, I appreciate that.

Let me set you up with pictures.

Ask him why he ran from us this morning.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

He's illegal. Thought we were INS.

Why was he at the apartment?

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

- HAROLD: Visiting a friend. - What does the key go to?

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

He doesn't know.

Ask him if he knows anything

about the cop getting shot in Chinatown this morning.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

No.

No? You guys just spoke for five minutes. What's going on, Harold?

He wanted to know why I'm working with you white ghosts.

- Why don't you just be straight with me? - I just was.

Okay...

maybe he will change his tune after he's picked out of the lineup.

Tell him that.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

DONNA: Detective...

Mr. Woo's lawyer is here.

(CHUCKLES) Detective Kelly.

Stephen Cheng, Detective.

How do you do?

I'd like to see my client Woo Shu Kwan.

Hmm. How do you know we have that person in custody?

Friends of his saw you pick him up.

Well, Mr. Woo has not asked for the services of an attorney yet.

A member of his family has asked me to represent him.

- Who would that be? - Mr. Woo's uncle.

I don't know why you're here, Counselor,

but you're going to have to do better than that.

John, can we talk a minute?

Sure.

Tong send the lawyer to get Woo to confess,

- get it over with. - They're going to get him to confess.

They do something for him,

You know, maybe lighten up on the money he owe when he come over,

give money to the guy's family back in China. Or whatever.

Mm-hmm. Or get him to confess to protect the real guy.

We found the key on this guy, Johnny.

Who put the key on him, Harold?

Tommy Lew is not going to make my case for me.

You understand?

Uh, you know what? I'm going to need more proof

that you represent the family, so bring the uncle in. Okay?

Thanks for your time, Detective.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

- What did you get? - No one saw anything at the building.

These are the no answers. I'll go re-canvass tomorrow.

All right. Let me have those. Get the husband looking at photos.

Let me know if the lying prick comes up with an ID

Are you going to get pissed off if I ask you where you're going?

Back to re-canvass.

There's a vote of confidence.

Detective Lesniak, you got a bunch of calls from a Detective Abruzzo.

I tried telling him you were tied up with a case.

Thanks.

How's it going on your case?

Dinner's going to have to be late.

Let's just bag dinner then.

I feel bad about this woman.

You did what you could.

I got to go.

- Hey. - Yeah.

If you want to talk, I'll be up late.

FANCY: Hey, John.

The Chief of Detectives is going to make a statement to the press.

He wants to know if we're calling Woo a suspect.

Well, as far as the lineups are concerned, I think it's a maybe, Lieutenant,

but I'd like to keep him in the tank overnight, let him get a little more tired

take a shot at him in the morning.

- Okay. On showing up late this morning? - Yeah I... I...

If I could just make the time up now, that'd be great.

Well, my point is, don't have Andy sign you in.

That's the kind of thing Haverill's looking for.

Yeah. Okay.

- How's Harold Ng doing? - Harold Ng, doing great.

- All right. Good night. - Good night.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Hey, how are we doing?

Okay. (CHUCKLES) How's your case?

Yeah, I think we got a direction.

The husband on my homicide picked out a couple of photos.

- Hmm. You believe him? - No.

One's in the joint, the other one I'm going to question

at his parole officer's tomorrow.

Couple of us are going out for a beer. You wanna come along?

Thanks. Yeah.

How about you, Harold? You wanna go out for a beer?

Yeah. Sure.

- We'll talk later. - Okay.

Harold, uh...

this Tommy Lew thing, you know, I got my bosses squeezing my shoes,

and, uh, maybe I got my back up.

Yeah, Johnny. I understand, but no boss own me, Tommy Lew especially.

Understand that, too, okay?

- Okay. Give me a minute. - HAROLD: Yeah.

- (INDISTINCT CHATTER) - (MAN CHUCKLING)

Hey, Harold, tell her about the possum case.

- Possum case? - MEDAVOY: Yeah.

It's a great story. Come on, Harold. You tell it great. Come on.

Go ahead. Come on.

- Go ahead. - Okay.

Me and this other guy working on a kidnapping, all right.

Kidnapper send a ransom note.

You know, letter cut out of newspaper, glue on paper,

spell out, if you ever want to see

what his name ever again... like old movie... whole nine yards.

Anyway, we got to make the massive drop on the woods, right?

Only we got nothing to put the money in, you know, only barbecue bag.

And the guy love barbecue. Eat the rib all day, right?

Everybody follow me?

- (ALL CHUCKLE) - Yeah, we're with you, Harold.

Come on, we're with you.

So we put money in barbecue bag,

hide the bag in the woods like the kidnapper tell us.

Possum smell barbecue, eat the money, ten-thousand dollars.

- (ALL CHUCKLE) - HAROLD: Everybody follow me?

- Yeah. - Hey.

Guy down at the station house said you might still be here.

- Hey, John. - Hey, Jimmy.

I understand you're working that, uh,

- cop shooting. - Yeah.

- Well, good luck with that. - Thanks.

Adie, uh, you got a moment to talk?

Sure.

JIMMY: Hey, we got to catch up with each other someday, yeah?

- Talk later. - You got it.

- Who was that? - LESNIAK: What do you want?

JIMMY: For you to return my calls.

That was Jimmy Abruzzo.

We went through the homicide course together.

- She didn't look too happy to see him. - Yeah.

They were in the 27 together. Nobody knew they were involved.

Sector car answered a disturbance call.

They were having a knockdown, drag out, so.

- That's why she got transferred. - JIMMY: Don't be such a...

- Just listen to me. All right? - Get out of here!

What? You think this is over for you? It's not.

- JIMMY: You still love me. - Be right back.

- LESNIAK: Get your hands off me. - JIMMY: I'm not letting you go.

Wait a minute, guys. Guys. Everything okay?

- She's Okay. - Yeah? I asked her.

I'm fine.

I think you need to take off, Jimmy.

Yeah, I think you should go hump yourself John.

Butt out, John.

I don't need anybody protecting me, all right?

My problems are my problem.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

- HAROLD: Hey, Andy. - (INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Looking good. Something about you different.

How's it going, Harold?

Where are the cigarettes? All the time you smoking.

I quit.

Must be it. Careful. You get fat like Goodyear Blimp.

It's nice to see you, too, pal.

- Johnny, you ready to talk to this guy? - KELLY: Yeah. Let's go.

- Doing all right? - (SNIFFS) Yeah.

- KELLY: Good morning. - Morning.

This guy Carlin picked out from the mug books,

I'm going to talk to him in his parole officer's.

Ask him about the Grassy Knoll in Dallas or the whereabouts on the Lindbergh Baby.

Look, Detective, um, I thought about this real hard last night,

and I'm unable to remember what I did to piss you off,

so if you're running some guilt trip about this lady dying,

please do not make it my problem.

Do you moonlight as a shrink?

No. This job is hard enough,

and it does not include you batting me around

like I'm some inflatable punching clown.

So what I'm going to do is, is I'm going to go question this guy,

even if it's just to rule him out.

Meanwhile, I would appreciate it

if you would take your attitude and shove it up your ass.

KELLY: Okay, well, he's had the whole night to think about it,

and we're putting this together, so we need a statement

and his description of the events.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

He said he doesn't know anything.

Hmm. Well, tell him that I'm certain

he didn't kill this police officer intentionally,

but I need a statement, and I need his description of the events.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

HAROLD: He said he doesn't know anything.

(DOOR KNOCKS)

- What's up? - That lawyer,

Mr. Cheng, wants to talk to you again.

Where's Uncle Woo?

Hi, Detective. Mr. Woo Hong Lee, my client's uncle,

was too infirm to be here.

This notarized letter authorizing me to represent his nephew should suffice.

I also have a letter from the uncle's doctor

attesting to his poor health.

Wait here.

Tell him there's a lawyer outside who says he's been hired by his uncle.

Ask him if he wants him to represent him.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - No.

Okay, tell him that I want him to tell the lawyer that. All right?

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

KELLY: Let's go.

Ask him.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

What'd he say?

He said the Tong want to help him and his family.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

He wants the lawyer now.

- I'd like some time with my client. - Okay, Counselor, fine,

but we get no sacrificial lambs in here.

If he confesses to me, I better believe it. Got it?

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

(DOOR KNOCKS)

ANDY: Excuse me, ma'am. Detective Sipowicz.

Oh, yeah, Detective. I saw you the morning of the murder.

I'm the one who found Mrs. Carlin.

- Right. You live in this apartment? - No. Irene Polotto lives here.

I do her grocery shopping for her. She's a shut-in.

She's been out and about a lot. Nobody ever answers the door.

She can't hear you knock. She's deaf.

This is how I let her know I'm here.

I flick the switch.

It's okay, Irene.

This man's a police officer.

He was wondering if he could ask you some questions about Theresa.

Oh.

She reads lips, so speak slowly and clearly.

I'll put these away.

(ANDY SIGHS)

Ma'am, I'm Detective Sipowicz.

I'm hoping you can help us with our investigation.

I'll certainly try.

Were you home the morning of the murder?

Yeah, but I didn't know anything was wrong

until I looked out the window and I saw all the police cars.

Did you see the victim's husband that morning?

I saw him leave for work.

What time would that have been?

Well, I'm not sure exactly.

But it must've been early because I was feeding my pigeons

on the window sill,

and they get very impatient if I don't feed them before 9:00,

especially Tommy.

Was there anything unusual about Mr. Carlin's behavior?

Did he seem agitated?

No. Uh, listen, do you mind if I sit down? My knee. I got a bum knee.

Please, please, sit.

So...

he walked out the door and headed for the subway, is that right?

Yeah. After he threw out the garbage.

- What garbage? - He was carrying a garbage bag.

- Doesn't this building have a trash chute? - (SCOFFS) Sometimes it backs up.

Did you happen to see where Mr. Carlin took that bag of garbage?

Yeah. To the building next door, across the alley.

- Thank you. You've been very helpful. - Yeah.

(WOO SPEAKING CHINESE)

I went to worker's apartment owned by Mr. Fong.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

- Mr. Fong owns a restaurant. - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

All his illegal workers live there.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - I live there, too.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

Until Mr. Fong fired me for no reason.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

I knew someone who lived there who has a gun.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - I wanted to sell it for a lot of money.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

HAROLD: I went out the door.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

- HAROLD: Saw the policeman. - (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE)

- I got scared. - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

I never touched a gun before.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

Never thought... Now I kill a man.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

HAROLD: I owe 30 thousand US dollars being smuggled in the US.

- (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE) - HAROLD: The trip took two months.

- (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE) - Locked in the hold of a cargo ship.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - Squeezed in with 300 men.

- (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE) - No toilet.

- (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE) - No water to wash hand or bathe.

- (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE) - Everyone was sick.

Who do you owe the 30 thousand to?

Excuse me. What case are we working on here, Detective?

Ask him how he lost the jacket.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

- HAROLD: Someone tried to stop me. - (SPEAKING CHINESE)

HAROLD: Grabbed me by my jacket.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - I didn't want to shoot him, too.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - HAROLD: I slipped out of my jacket

and ran towards Canal Street.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

I came to America to earn money to send money home.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

- After I arrive, I could not find work. - (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE)

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - HAROLD: No money to send home.

(WOO SPEAKING CHINESE)

- I lived any way I can, in filth... - (WOO SPEAKING CHINESE)

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - ...always dirty.

In China, it's never like this. Worse than animal.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - HAROLD: I'm sorry.

- (SPEAKING CHINESE) - I'm very sorry.

(SPEAKING CHINESE)

I never wanted to hurt anyone.

Okay.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

- I buy it. - Yeah.

Uh, I'll bring the guy down and book him,

then come back and finish up the paperwork.

- Good job, Harold. - Okay, Lieu.

The jacket sold you, huh, Johnny? How the guy grabbed the jacket?

That's right. You brought this one home, Harold.

Hey, Johnny.

Dead cop... if this was the guineas looking to keep the pressure off,

then give up the guy who really did it, would you have a problem with that?

Not if he were guilty.

Maybe you would have seen it a little easier.

I needed the help.

(SCOFFS)

Anyway, maybe this will keep Haverill off your back, huh.

Maybe.

- Thanks. - Yeah.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

Where's the other detective?

She said there was some more mug shots for me to look at.

I don't think that'd be the best use of your time right now.

Sit down. Sit down.

I want to bring you up to date on a couple things.

Your, uh, African perpetrator theory... That didn't pan out.

I ID'd the two guys I seen hanging around in front of the building.

One's in the joint,

and the other was at his job all day yesterday.

- His parole officer verified it. - I know what I saw.

We're kind of questioning that whole break-in theory now.

The place was torn up. It was ransacked.

I'll tell you, that window was broken out.

There was busted glass all on the sidewalk.

That meant that somebody had to break it from the inside.

Plus...

what do you make of this?

They're size 12. You look like you're about a 12.

Does that look like dried blood to you, huh?

Looks like dried blood to me.

There's some bloody overalls in here too.

You made a real mess of things, didn't you?

So there's blood on them. I work in a meatpacking plant.

There's blood all over the place in a meatpacking plant.

The DNA tests are gonna prove that that's your wife's blood.

If that's my wife's blood, then whoever did this took my clothes

and put them in her blood afterward.

Yeah, and then they threw them in the next building's trash chute,

where your neighbor saw you drop a bag.

I dropped a bag of garbage. Sometimes our chute gets backed up.

You killed her, you scumbag son of a bitch.

You beat her to death!

And now I got to give you one last chance to confess and make it easier on yourself!

And I'm hoping you're too stupid to do that!

'Cause the harder it is for you, the happier I'm gonna be!

So are you gonna tell me the truth now, or are you gonna make me happy?

Ticktock, Victor. What's it gonna be?

- I'm missing happy hour. - You prick. You prick!

- Let go of me! - You prick!

You killed her! You shut your mouth

- or I'll shut it for you. - Get off of me!

Shut up!

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

- You were watching? - Is that Okay?

Nursemaid this guy.

I got to clear my head.

I'll tell you, Mr. Carlin, I wouldn't want to be you right now.

Hey, that wacko just hit me.

He touches me again, and he goes to jail.

I don't think that's gonna happen.

I've worked with that detective for a lot of years.

These situations always go down the same way.

You'll wind up in the emergency room pissing blood,

and I'm looking at 12 hours of paperwork explaining how you resisted arrest.

You can't let him do that.

(CHUCKLES) I can't control him.

My advice to you is give the guy what he wants,

or it's going to be a long night for the both of us.

- We got ourselves a cop. - FANCY: Yeah.

Can you make the case off the bloody clothes?

I can't put the guy in the clothes. I...

I didn't recover the bag for 36 hours.

LESNIAK: He doesn't like you. You know that.

Whatever he is, he's gonna be coming back through that door any minute.

CARLIN: He can't do that to me.

Excuse us, Detective Lesniak.

All right.

Beep beep, Carlin.

Beep beep? I know about you, Sipowicz. You're a psycho.

All right, we're going to start all over again,

only this time I brought my lie detector with me.

Every time my lie detector goes beep beep, you're going to get smacked.

I... I want to be interviewed by somebody else.

This is your first question. On the morning your wife was killed,

- what time did you leave the house? - Leave me alone.

What time did you leave the house?

- Eight o'clock. - ANDY: Very good.

- What did you do when you went outside? - I went to work.

- Beep beep! - I went to work!

- Beep beep! - No... I... I... took the garbage out,

and I, uh, took it to the building next door,

- and then I went to work. - Very good.

And what was in the garbage you put out?

Uh... just garbage.

Beep beep.

- Just garbage. - Beep beep!

Oh, no. Oh, all right. (SNIFFLES)

It was clothes.

And then you threw them in the trash next door?

That's right. (SNIFFLES)

I did not intend for her to die.

What you don't know is that I... I was provoked on a... a daily basis,

and... and the outcome of what happened was...

was... was the result of that.

(SIGHS)

You start writing.

Beep beep.

(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)

Medavoy, come see me.

I'll be right there, sir.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Let's say two people in the station house were having a romantic relationship...

and let's say I were to find out about it.

I'd have to get at least one of them transferred out. Are you aware of that?

Uh, yes, I am, sir.

So, if anyone was to engage in that kind of a relationship,

and if they didn't want to get transferred,

I think they'd be very careful about

how they acted around each other, wouldn't you?

Uh, yes, I would.

I'm sorry.

Well, as far as I know, you haven't done anything to be sorry for.

And I want you to keep it that way.

Uh, right.

Thank you, sir.

Good night.

Good night.

HAROLD: Hey, Johnny, you want to type this?

KELLY: Your job, Harold.

Carlin tape his statement?

For a drunk, he's got a good memory.

Now there's a guy who wants my ass so bad, he can taste it.

Well, he can taste my ass, too, while he's at it.

- Good night. - Good night.

You know what? You want to get some dinner?

Uh, I was kind of hoping Sylvia might stop by later.

That's okay. How did Lesniak do?

- She did good. - LESNIAK: Night.

KELLY: Good night.

- Here's my fives. Night. - ANDY: Okay.

Good night. Uh, nice job with that interview.

Nice talking to you.

So does Kelly's paperwork look okay?

Yeah.

Let's announce we got our cop shooter.

Hasta la vista, Andy.

- Yeah, take it easy, Harold. - Yeah.

See you, Lieu.

Hey, good job, Harold!

John Kelly did some good job.

He's some damn good cop. Night.

Why don't you people just put on cheerleading outfits?

Tough to fire someone who just brought down a cop killer.

- FANCY: Night, Andy. - Yeah. Good night.

Carlin confessed.

Yeah.

Ah, that poor woman.

Yeah.

So, uh,

did you figure out that new place for us to eat?

Why don't we just go to my place, and I'll cook you something?

Nah. I don't want to put you out.

But you want to marry me.

Yeah.

Do you see anything strange about that?

No.

I mean, eventually, we'd start eating at home.

What's your point?

Andy, when you proposed,

I got the feeling that you thought if we were married,

that it would fix something.

I don't want to get married feeling like something needs to be fixed.

- In other words, you're saying no. - I'm not saying no...

but I do think we need to get comfortable

- with each other. - Comfortable?

I intend to get married...

and I don't want anyone else in my life right now but you.

I want us to get there. But we're not there yet.

Yeah. Okay.

SYLVIA: Look...

I'm hungry.

So just come over for dinner, Okay?

You already got food there?

No, I'll have to shop, but I go shopping all the time.

I meant to say maybe we could go shopping together.

Sure.
