ITEM 12.

THERE'S A MEMO OUT OF DIVISION
AS REGARDS A NEW PAMPHLET...

AVAILABLE FROM THE DEPARTMENT
OF OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH.

SAID PAMPHLET IS DESCRIBED AS
BEING "PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED,"

"MUST READING," AND IT'S FREE.

I CONFESS, I'M A BIT
IN THE DARK, HOWEVER,

AS TO ITS NATURE, CONTENTS-WISE.

UM, THE TITLE IS,

"YOU, YOUR LOVED ONES
AND 'GENTLE HERPS.'"

UH, SARGE, I THINK
THAT'S GENITAL, UH...

HERPES.

REGARDLESS, COMMANDER THOMPSON SEEMS TO
FEEL THAT LOVED-ONE-WISE AND HEALTH-WISE,

YOU'LL WANT TO KEEP THIS ONE
IN YOUR GLOVE COMPARTMENT.

ITEM 13.

OFFICER HILL HAS AN
ANNOUNCEMENT. OFFICER HILL.

THANKS.

THERE IS AN OPEN
MEMBERSHIP MEETING...

FOR THE BLACK OFFICERS
COALITION TO BE HELD...

AT THE MAIN CONFERENCE
HALL AT DIVISION, FRIDAY, 8:00.

UH, IF YOU... IF YOU
HAVE ANY QUESTIONS,

YOU CAN SEE... YOU CAN SEE ME.

ALL RIGHT. THE
LAST ITEM... ITEM 14.

WHAT IS THAT?

WHAT IS THAT?

OH. MICK, WOULD YOU
PLEASE SEE TO THAT?

TO ALL UNIFORMED OFFICERS,
CLASSES H-3 THROUGH H-5,

RECEIVING CHECKS YESTERDAY
IN THE AMOUNT OF $42,182...

AS OPPOSED TO
THEIR NORMAL $421.82,

PLEASE BE ADVISED
THAT DIVISION IS AWARE...

OF THE DOUBLE-DIGIT
COMPUTER GLITCH,

AND PERSONNEL ARE STERNLY WARNED AGAINST
ATTEMPTING TO CASH SAID INSTRUMENTS.

ALL RIGHT. THAT'S
IT. LET'S ROLL.

AND HEY. HEY! LET'S
BE CAREFUL OUT THERE.

WHAT ARE THEY DOING, LIEUTENANT?

OH, IT'S... IT'S TEXTBOOK
STRESS CONVERSION

TECHNIQUES OF THE
IMPERIAL JAPANESE MARINES,

PRIOR TO THEIR RAPE
OF MANCHURIA IN 1932.

THERAPY, DETECTIVE.

VENTING ONE'S RAGE THROUGH
THE MARTIAL ARTS DISCIPLINE.

JUST SEEMS TO ME LIKE YOU
GUYS ARE DOING IT ALL WRONG.

OH? WELL... AS YOU
WERE, GENTLEMEN.

MAYBE YOU'D LIKE TO SHOW US.

THERE, YOU SEE?

DISPATCH. WE HAVE A 9-11.

ARMED ROBBERY IN PROGRESS.

SEE SURPLUS STORE, CORNER
PEOPLE'S DRIVE, 124th STREET.

HEY, HEY, HEY, LaRUE. WHERE
YOU BEEN? SLEEPING UNDER A BUSH?

I CAN'T BEGIN TO EXPLAIN, MAN. WELL,
YOU BETTER. CAPTAIN'S LOOKING FOR US.

GIVE ME FIVE MINUTES
TO SPLASH MY FACE.

RENKO. RENKO, YOU'RE
GONNA BE TEAMED UP WITH

STAN GREBEY FOR THE
NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.

HE'S JUST TRANSFERRED OVER FROM
WASHINGTON HEIGHTS. YOU MEAN, STAN GREBEY?

WHAT ABOUT BOBBY HILL? BOBBY'S
ON SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT, PER DIVISION:

TWO DAYS OF B.O.C. RECRUITMENT,
HERE AND IN THE HEIGHTS.

I'M LOOKING FOR ANDY
RENKO. HE'S OVER THERE.

THANKS.

HEY, YOU RENKO?

WHY, YES, I AM. AND
YOU MUST BE, UH...

READ THE SIGN. COME ON. LET'S HIT IT.
WE'RE LATE. WELL, NOW, STAN THE MAN,

THAT'S NOT EXACTLY HOW ME AND
BOBBY HILL DO IT UP HERE ON THE DAY SHIFT.

YOU SEE, FIRST, I GOTTA
TAKE MY MORNING SIT-DOWN.

SO IF YOU'D LIKE TO HOLD YOUR WATER
FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES, I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

YEAH, SUIT YOURSELF, TIGER.

JUST AS I ARRIVED THIS MORNING I
RECEIVED A CALL FROM JERRY FUCHS.

IT WAS ABOUT YOU, J.D.

HE SAID YOU MISSED
YOUR MEET LAST NIGHT.

YEAH, THE DUDE NEVER
SHOWED. WHAT A TAP DANCE.

I MUST'VE LOOKED IN 10 DIFFERENT JOINTS. I
GOT ABOUT AN HOUR'S SLEEP. DON'T WORRY.

I GOT ANOTHER MEET
SET IN 45 MINUTES.

WE'LL STILL BE ABLE TO HIT
THE LAB THIS AFTERNOON?

COPACETIC, CAPTAIN. WARRANTS
ARE READY. EVERYTHING SHOULD GO.

OKAY. KEEP ME POSTED.

BETTER NOT BE JACKING
US UP ON THIS ONE, J.D.

I DON'T WANT TO BE WALKING INTO
A SHOOTIN' GALLERY. HEY, COME ON.

WOULD I DO THAT TO YOU?
WE'RE TALKING TRUST HERE.

NO, WE ARE TALKING
SURVIVAL, MAN.

COME ON. WOULD YA?

YOU KNOW, FOR A TWO-BIT OUTPOST
ON THE EDGE OF THE CIVILIZED WORLD,

THERE IS SOME FIRST-RATE TALENT
COMES THROUGH HERE. COME ON, MAN.

RAY, IF ANYONE WANTS TO KNOW,
I'M DOWN AT THE HOUSING AUTHORITY.

SEE IF THERE'S ANY WAY I CAN GET 'EM TO
DECLARE WAR ON THAT SOSA CHARACTER.

TALK TO ERNIE SILVERA DOWN THERE. HE LOVES
A LOST CAUSE ALMOST AS MUCH AS YOU DO.

I'LL TELL HIM YOU SAID HELLO.

OH! OH, HELLO, PRECIOUS.

OH. YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE.

- DEBBIE DOES DES MOINES.
- THANK YOU.

- WHAT'S THE OCCASION?
- I HAVE A PROBLEM.

SWEETNESS, WHAT'S THE MATTER?

OF ALL THINGS, A DOG.

GRACE. A DOG?

IN MY BUILDING, PHIL.

IT BARKS ALL NIGHT, AND THE
LANDLORD WON'T DO ANYTHING.

AND THE OWNER IS A MEAN, VICIOUS,
BEASTLY, INSENSITIVE HUMAN BEING.

I HAVE TRIED REASONING. I HAVE
TRIED TALKING. I HAVE TRIED...

IN DESPERATION, I FINALLY CALLED THE
POLICE, AND THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING EITHER.

I'M AT MY WIT'S END. I'LL GIVE
CHICK SPILLMAN IN MIDTOWN A CALL.

WORD DOWNTOWN IS THAT PAM
GILLIAM'S KILLER IS GOING TO WALK.

WHAT? THE P.D. WHO IS
WORKING ON THE CASE...

IS TELLING PEOPLE THERE'S
SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SEARCH.

FRANK, IF YOU GUYS BLEW
THIS ONE... OH, THAT'S CRAZY.

THE SEARCH WAS BY THE NUMBERS. I'M ON
MY WAY TO SEE THE ASSISTANT D.A. RIGHT NOW.

CAN I TAG ALONG? YOU WON'T EVEN
KNOW I'M THERE. SURE. COME ON.

I'M AFRAID, FRANK. NOT
THIS ONE. GOD, NOT THIS ONE.

NOW, I UNDERSTAND YOUR
SITUATION, PERSONNEL-WISE.

CHICK, WOULD YOU MIND
VERY MUCH IF I INTRUDE

MYSELF INTO YOUR
PRECINCT ON THIS ONE?

I OWE YOU, FELLA.

THE DOG'S OWNER IS BUCK
MULLINS, AND HE'S HOME UNTIL NOON.

MR. MULLINS, THIS IS SERGEANT PHIL
ESTERHAUS, METROPOLITAN POLICE.

WE HAVE A COMPLAINANT
NAMED GRACE GARDNER...

NAME CALLING IS NOT
GONNA SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

I ASSURE YOU, SIR, I AM
INDEED A POLICE OFFICER.

NOW, JUST A...

"FLOOZY." "BOZO." "BOGUS!"

EXCUSE ME, GRACE.

BATES, WHEN COFFEY TERMINATES HIS
ABLUTIONS, GO PICK THIS INDIVIDUAL UP.

SARGE, THIS IS IN MIDTOWN. I DON'T
CARE IF IT'S COSTA RICA. GO PICK HIM UP!

SORRY ABOUT LAST NIGHT,
MAN. LOST MY MONEYMAN.

BY THE TIME THE DEAL GOT ALL WIRED, YOU
WERE GONE, MAN. GOT YOUR FIRST PAYMENT?

HEY, NO SWEAT.

PUT IT IN THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT.

GONNA HAVE TO WAIT 48 HOURS NOW.

SAY WHAT? YOU NEVER SHOWED.
HAD ANOTHER CUSTOMER.

OH, MAN, COME ON. YOU
CAN'T DO THIS TO ME. I

DON'T MAKE THIS DEAL
TODAY, I'M IN THE TOILET.

WAITED TWO HOURS
LAST NIGHT. OH, MAN.

YOU KNOW WHAT DOMESTIC PROBLEMS
GUYS LIKE YOU CAUSE GUYS LIKE ME?

I STAY OUT PAST 2:00 IN THE MORNING, THE
WIFE THINKS I'M GETTING THE WHISTLE WET.

I DON'T NEED THAT, FLAKE-HEAD. HEY,
MAN, I CAN DIG IT, HUH? NEVER AGAIN.

I'M A BUSINESSMAN. ALL DAY I
DEAL WITH OTHER BUSINESSMEN.

I BET A JERK LIKE YOU CAN'T
EVEN GET MASTERCHARGE. HEY.

HEY, HEY, LOOK.
I SAID I'M SORRY.

YOU A JUNKIE? ALKIE?
WHAT? I TOLD YA, HUH?

IT WAS A SCREW UP.
DON'T FLUSH ME, MAN.

I'M GONNA BE A
GANGBUSTERS CUSTOMER.

GIVE YA A BREAK.

MEET ME AT THE PLACE, 4:00
SHARP. HEY, YOU GOT IT, BERT.

AND I REALLY APPRECIATE, HUH?

DO ME A FAVOR THOUGH. YEAH?

DO SOMETHING WITH
YOURSELF, WOULD YA?

YOU'RE AN EMBARRASSMENT
TO BE SEEN IN PUBLIC WITH.

THERE'S TWO WAYS TO GET OUT. FRONT'S
ON DELAWARE. THAT'LL BE TEPAZ AND O'KEEFE.

BACK IS ON TUDOR. THAT'S
WHERE THE DOBERMAN IS.

SIRWELL, YOU TAKE CARE OF THAT. BREAK IN
THESE WINDOWS. PETERSON'LL BE ON THE ROOF.

HOW MANY INSIDE? FIVE OR SIX.

WHAT'S THE CHANCES OF FIRE
ON THIS ONE? FAIRLY EXTREME.

VENTILATION'S THROUGH
WINDOWS AND VENTS ONLY.

THE PLACE IS LOADED WITH GOODIES,
AND THEY DON'T STEEL-CABINET A THING.

EH, YOU WANT ME TO TELL 'EM,
JER, OR YOU WANNA TELL 'EM?

UH, NO, GO AHEAD, HOWARD.

JER AND I FLUSHED OUT A
PHENYLCYCLOHEXYL PIPERIDINE FACTORY...

ON OHIO STREET LAST YEAR.

NOW, IT WAS YOUR, UH...

IT WAS YOUR CLASSIC BILATERAL
WAREHOUSE SIEGE MANEUVERS,

WITH 200 GALLONS OF ETHER.

BALLANTINE JUMPS THE GUN
AND FIRES IN A TEAR-GAS GRENADE.

YOU COULD OF HEARD THE
EXPLOSION HALF WAY TO UGANDA.

YOU-YOU REMEMBER, JER?
TWO OF THE PERPETRATORS

CAME SCREAMING
OUT THE FRONT DOOR...

LOOKING LIKE THEY'D HAD
ROMAN-CANDLE SUPPOSITORIES FOR LUNCH,

AND THE THIRD GUY...

THE THIRD GUY BROAD
JUMPS THROUGH THE

SECOND-STORY WINDOW INTO
THE GANSON STREET CANAL.

I'M SORRY, SORRY!

OH, JUDAS H., IT WAS FUNNY. OH!

ANYTHING ELSE TO ADD?

YEAH. THE CODE WORD IS "SOUP." I'LL
BE WIRED. I'LL GO IN THROUGH THE FRONT.

ON "SOUP" YOU GUYS
BOOT THE DOOR. THAT'S IT.

GOOD WORK, JOHN.
LOOKS LIKE WE'RE ALL SET.

ANY QUESTIONS?

OKAY, THAT'S IT. GOOD LUCK.

SARGE, WE GOT YOUR MR. MULLINS.

HE REQUIRE ANY BACKUP?

NO. NO.

WHERE HAVE YOU
GOT HIM? IN HOLDING?

NO, HE'S OVER BY YOUR
DESK. THE LITTLE GUY.

YOU'RE BUCK MULLINS? WHO WERE YOU
EXPECTING, THE OAKLAND HELL'S ANGELS?

OKAY, SARGE. I'M NOT MOVING, AND I'M
NOT GETTIN' RID OF MY DOG, AND THAT'S THAT.

MR. MULLINS, PLEASE.

MRS. GARDNER'S NOT ASKING
YOU TO DISLODGE YOUR CANINE.

MERELY LOWER HIS
DECIBEL RANGE, AS IT WERE.

I MIGHT ADD THAT YOUR BELLIGERENCE
TOWARDS HER COMPLAINTS...

HAS NOT EXACTLY
MOLLIFIED THE SITUATION.

WELL, LET ME ADD, SERGEANT, THAT
THE LADY IS NO ANGEL HERSELF, YOU KNOW.

YOU KNOW, EVER SINCE
HER HUSBAND DIED,

THE NOISES COMING OUT OF THAT
APARTMENT ARE UNBELIEVABLE.

NOISES? WHAT SORT OF NOISES?

SHE RUNS AROUND WITH A
SIX-AND-A-HALF-FOOT PALOOKA...

WHO MAKES A SOUND
LIKE A WOUNDED RHINO

THROUGH THE WALLS
EVERY TIME HE GETS EXCITED.

A WOUNDED... RHINO?

MM-HMM. YOU WANNA TALK ANIMALS?

THIS PUG AND MRS. GARDNER...

MAKE CALL OF THE WILD SOUND
LIKE A BABY SNOOKS ALBUM.

THEY OUGHTA BRING IN MARLIN
PERKINS FOR THE COLOR COMMENTARY.

TO GET BACK TO YOUR
DOG, MR. MULLINS...

OKAY, SARGE.
LET'S CLEAR THE AIR.

YOU WANNA KNOW THE REAL
HISTORY BEHIND THIS BEEF OF HERS?

THE STRAIGHT SKINNY?
THE FACT IS, LAST YEAR...

MRS. GARDNER
AND I HAD AN AFFAIR.

YOU... AND MRS. GARDNER?

SHE'S THE ONE THAT GAVE ME THE
DOG, A WEIMARANER NAMED FLOYD.

YEAH, HE WAS A PUP THEN, BUT
HE GOES A GOOD 90 POUNDS NOW.

THIS WOMAN IS BIZARRO
WITH A CAPITAL "B."

SHE GAVE ME LEATHER
SHEETS FOR MY BIRTHDAY.

DON'T GET ME WRONG, ALF. I'M NOT
TRYING TO PRESSURE YOU INTO ANYTHING.

I JUST THINK THAT YOU OUGHT TO
RECONSIDER. COALITION COULD USE YOU.

YOU LOOK UNCOMFORTABLE, BOBBY.
YOU REALLY LIKE WHAT YOU'RE DOING?

I WAS ELECTED TO AN OFFICE, ALF,
AND I ACCEPTED. SIMPLE AS THAT.

NOW, WHAT DO YOU SAY? YOU
GONNA COME TO A MEETING?

I'VE BEEN WITH THE DEPARTMENT
NEARLY 20 YEARS, BOBBY.

THIS PLACE IS A MODEL
FOR RACIAL EQUALITY...

COMPARED TO WHAT IT WAS,
LIKE WHEN I FIRST JOINED.

YOU COULD HAVE CUT IT WITH A
KNIFE BACK THEN. IT'S ALL RELATIVE, ALF.

THERE'S... REPORT OKAY?

THERE'S STILL A LONG WAY TO GO.

FORGIVE THE CLICHÉ, BUT IF YOU'RE NOT PART
OF THE SOLUTION, THEN YOU'RE PART OF...

YOU YOUNG BOYS THINK YOU DISCOVER ALL
THE PROBLEMS DRIVING TO WORK THIS MORNING.

WE HAD OUR OWN BIG
PUSH BACK IN 1968, BOBBY.

AFTER THE ENERGY DIED
DOWN AND THE TALKS STOPPED,

THE ONLY ONES THAT GOT HURT WERE
THE ONES THAT STUCK THEIR NECKS OUT.

I WAS ONE OF THEM. REAL
HOT PROSPECT IN MY DAY.

GOT MY WINGS CLIPPED, IF YOU
UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING.

ALF, I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T
MEAN TO IMPLY ANYTHING.

I LIKE YOU, BOBBY. I APPRECIATE WHAT
YOU AND THE COALITION ARE TRYING TO DO.

BUT I'VE GOT MY OWN
WAY OF DOING THINGS NOW.

HEY, BOBBY, WHERE'S ANDREW J.?

HOW IN THE HELL SHOULD I KNOW?

HEY, ELLIS. WAIT A MINUTE, MAN.

THE COALITION MEETING
IS JUST ON MY MIND, AND I...

SO BIG DEAL. SO YOU
WERE THERE LAST NIGHT.

IS THERE ANY LAW THAT
SAYS YOU CAN'T VISIT

YOUR FATHER IN THE
HOSPITAL TWO DAYS IN A ROW?

LISTEN TO YOU. HE'S BEEN IN THERE A
WEEK. YOU HAVEN'T BEEN TO SEE HIM ONCE.

WELL, THAT'S WHY I WANT TO
GO TONIGHT. COME ON, TRACE.

WE'LL JUST GET OURSELVES A SPAGHETTI
DINNER AND GO DOWN THERE AND VISIT HIM.

IT'LL BE ME AND YOU AND TOMMY AND
DAD... A REGULAR FAMILY GET-TOGETHER.

WE ALREADY HAD OUR ANNUAL
GET-TOGETHER, ANDY, LAST THANKSGIVING.

AS I REMEMBER, YOU SPENT THE
DAY WITH BOBBY HILL AND HIS FOLKS.

LOOK, I'M SORRY ABOUT
THAT. I KNOW YOU WENT

TO ALL THAT KIND OF
TROUBLE, AND I'M SORRY.

BUT I CANNOT TAKE EVENINGS
LIKE THAT... EVERYBODY

SITTING AROUND THE
HOUSE FOR EIGHT HOURS,

NOBODY TALKING TO ONE
ANOTHER, WATCHING DAD GET

MORE AND MORE DRUNK
AND MOODY OVER MOM DYING.

SO WHY ARE YOU SO ANXIOUS FOR
EVERYBODY TO GET TOGETHER NOW?

I DON'T KNOW. IT'S LIKE WE ALL
SORT OF SPLIT APART, YOU KNOW?

MAYBE I WASN'T READY FOR IT,
BUT I'M BEGINNING TO THINK THAT A...

A FAMILY SHOULD JUST STAY
TOGETHER NO MATTER WHAT.

DON'T YOU THINK IT'S A LITTLE
LATE FOR THAT NOW, ANDY?

LET'S HURRY IT UP, RENKO. WE
JUST GOT A 211 10 BLOCKS AWAY.

YOU JUST WAIT A MINUTE.

NEW PARTNER?

NOW, ARE YOU COMIN', OR
WHAT? I TOLD YOU, ANDREW.

I ALREADY MADE PLANS.

IF YOU CAN'T, YOU
CAN'T. SIMPLE AS THAT.

ANDY. YOU'RE AFRAID TO
SEE HIM ALONE. ISN'T THAT IT?

LET'S GO, RENKO.

BE COOL WITH THOSE THINGS, GUYS.

GANG KIDS. ROY AND MY
HUSBAND CHASED THEM OUT BACK.

HEY, WE WERE ONLY
KIDDING AROUND.

HEY, HE'S GETTIN' AWAY!

RIGHT THERE. YOU ALL RIGHT?

OW!

OH, MAMA.

ON YOUR FEET, PUNK!
AGAINST THE DOOR! GREBEY!

LOOK AT THIS, MAN! WHERE WERE
YOU, DAMN IT? I COULD HAVE GOT KILLED!

IT'S YOUR OWN FAULT FOR
TAKING OFF LIKE THAT, HOT DOG.

MAN, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO
BACK ME! THAT'S YOUR JOB!

I KNOW MY JOB, RENKO. SO JAM IT!

BOBBY WOULD'VE BEEN
HERE, YOU BIG SLOB.

FRANK.

COME ON.

THERE'S BEEN A TRAGIC,
HORRIBLE SCREWUP.

THAT'S THE ONLY WAY I
KNOW HOW TO DESCRIBE IT.

THE CITY'S CONTRACT WITH BARNEY'S
GARAGE EXPIRED SIX WEEKS AGO.

THE OWNER, KAZMAREK,
NEVER BOTHERED TO RENEW.

WHAT DOES THAT HAVE
TO DO WITH ANYTHING?

FRANK, DID YOU HAVE A SEARCH
WARRANT TO RETRIEVE THAT GUN?

OF COURSE NOT. WE GOT IT DURING THE
INVENTORY SEARCH, PURSUANT TO THE IMPOUND.

BUT THE CAR WAS TAKEN OVER TO
BARNEY'S, WHOSE LICENSE WAS EXPIRED.

SO, LEGALLY, THE CAR
WASN'T IN OUR POSSESSION.

NO POSSESSION, NO LEGAL IMPOUND, NO
REASON OR RIGHT FOR AN INVENTORY SEARCH.

OH, COME ON. JUST BECAUSE
SOME PAPERS WEREN'T SIGNED?

NO COURT'S GONNA THROW OUT A
MURDER WEAPON ON THE BASIS OF THAT.

NOT ONLY WILL THEY THROW OUT THE
WEAPON, BUT BRAGG'S CONFESSION AS WELL,

BECAUSE IT WAS COERCED THROUGH
OUR POSSESSION OF THE WEAPON.

I DON'T... I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.

I JUST... I JUST DON'T
BELIEVE IT. IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

I WOULDN'T BELIEVE IT EITHER.

BUT A MAJOR DRUG CASE
CAME DOWN TWO WEEKS AGO...

FRANZIA... REVERSED FOR
THE IDENTICAL REASON.

FRANZIA HIRED SOME
F. LEE BAILEY-TYPE...

WHO UNCOVERED THE QUIRK
ABOUT THE GARAGE LICENSE.

AND YOU DIDN'T APPEAL IT?

IMMEDIATELY. THE
NEXT DAY. WE LOST.

AND UNFORTUNATELY, FRANK, I CAN'T
PLACE THE BLAME ON MY OFFICE FOR THIS ONE.

AFTER FRANZIA, WE URGENTLY MEMOED DIVISION
NOT TO HAVE YOU USE LAPSED GARAGES.

APPARENTLY, THE MEMO
GOT PUT IN A DRAWER.

WAI...

YOU MEAN THIS GUY
COULD ACTUALLY WALK?

AS OF NOW, WE HAVE NO CASE.

IF WE INDICTED, THE SPEEDY TRIAL
RULES WOULD RUN AGAINST US.

WE HAVE TO LET HIM GO, AND
HOPE WE CAN BUILD SOMETHING.

SUPPOSE WE GET BRAGG TO TESTIFY
IN COURT AGAINST THE SHOOTER?

COUNSELOR. MR. BRAGG.

IF WILBUR WALKS, HE'S GONNA KILL YOU,
TYLER, BECAUSE YOU INFORMED ON HIM.

I KNOW HUMP ALL MY LIFE. I
CAN HANDLE IT, YOU KNOW?

OH, REALLY? YOU CAN HANDLE
BEING SHOT, HUH, TYLER?

YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE SHOT?
IN THE GUT, IN THE GROIN, IN THE FACE?

YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO TAKE A BULLET IN THE FACE?

BUT IF YOU TESTIFY AGAINST
WILBUR, HE'LL BE GONE.

AND I CAN PRACTICALLY
GUARANTEE YOU THREE YEARS MAX.

I SHOULD SIT INSIDE FOR THREE YEARS
WHEN I CAN WALK OUTSIDE THAT DOOR?

KNOW THIS, BRAGG. WE'RE GONNA MAKE
THIS CASE IF IT TAKES UNTIL YOU'RE DEAD.

WHO YOU KIDDING, CHIEF?

YOU AIN'T GOT SQUAT.

IF YOU COULD DO IT, YOU'D DO IT.

WHAT MY CLIENT'S INDICATING, CAPTAIN,
THAT IN HIS OWN BEST INTEREST HERE,

WHEN YOU DO HAVE
SOMETHING, WE'LL TALK BUSINESS.

"BUSINESS," MR. SCHWARTZ?
WE'RE NOT TALKING BUSINESS HERE.

WE'RE TALKING MURDER,
AND WE'RE TALKING JUSTICE.

YOU BELIEVE THAT, BRO? WHEN
THEY GOT NO BUSINESS TO TALK,

THEY START TALKING LIKE
IT'S FOR TIME MAGAZINE.

"I'M TALKING MURDER.
I'M TALKING JUSTICE."

THEY LOST THE MEMO IN A DRAWER?

THEY LOST THE MEMO IN A DRAWER,
AND THOSE ANIMALS ARE GONNA WALK?

JOYCE, THERE'S GONNA BE
JUSTICE FOR PAM GILLIAM.

I DON'T KNOW HOW,
EXACTLY, BUT THERE WILL BE.

NO, THERE WON'T. I DON'T
BELIEVE THAT AT ALL. NOT AT ALL.

IT'S THE FINAL TRAVESTY
OF EVERYTHING.

I'VE WASTED NEARLY THE
ENTIRE DAMN MORNING...

TAP DANCING WITH THOSE LOADS DOWN AT
HOUSING AUTHORITY. HOUSING AUTHORITY?

THE LANDLORD SITUATION
I TOLD YOU ABOUT, FRANK.

FIRST-RATE SHARK, THIS SOSA CHARACTER.
FORCES THE RENT-CONTROL TENANTS OUT,

THEN BRINGS IN NEW
PEOPLE AT TRIPLE THE RENTS.

SILVERA COULD NOT HELP YOU? WE WENT ROUND
AND ROUND, BUT THE BOTTOM LINE WAS NADA.

DO WE WANT TO DO ANYTHING? I GUESS THEY'LL
JUST HAVE TO TAKE IT TO RENTER'S COURT.

OH, GREAT. SO HE GETS CITED FOR A
COUPLE OF BUILDING-CODE VIOLATIONS.

ENOUGH CITATIONS PILE UP,
THEY CONDEMN THE BUILDING.

SOSA ABANDONS IT, COLLECTS
THE INSURANCE, AND WHO LOSES?

ALL THOSE HELPLESS PEOPLE,
THAT'S WHO. RIGHT OUT ON THE STREET.

YOU KNOW WHAT
THE REAL KILLER IS?

HE WAS LAUGHING WHEN I WAS UP THERE
YESTERDAY. HE KNEW I HAD NOTHING ON HIM.

WE'RE ALREADY TWO WEEKS
BEHIND IN OUR CASELOAD,

HENRY. AS BAD AS IT
IS, IT'S NOT OUR JOB.

IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT HAPPEN,
JUST LET IT GO. HENRY...

DON'T GIVE ME A PROBLEM NOW. COME
ON. RIGHT THROUGH THE DOOR. LET'S GO.

YOU STINKIN'... YOU WANNA
END UP IN EMERGENCY?

HUH? LET'S GO!

MRS. GARDNER? MRS. GARDNER.

IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND
WAITING DOWN IN ROLL CALL,

THE SERGEANT SAID THAT
HE'LL BE DOWN IN JUST A MINUTE.

IT'S RIGHT DOWN THE STAIRS...
I'VE BEEN THERE BEFORE, LEO.

BUT BUCK MULLINS?

THAT REPELLENT, LITTLE
FERRET-FACED TWERP.

IT WAS BARELY A WEEK AFTER SAM DIED,
DARLING. I WAS STILL IN A STATE OF SHOCK.

GRACE, HOW COULD YOU?

I DON'T FEEL I HAVE TO JUSTIFY
MY PERSONAL LIFE, PHIL...

PARTICULARLY WITH REGARD TO
EVENTS THAT OCCURRED BEFORE WE MET.

THE MAN WRITES COMIC
BOOKS FOR A LIVING.

I SUPPOSE IT WAS A SORT OF
POSTMORTEM LIBIDINAL URGE.

I FELT... VERY
ALONE AT THE TIME.

HE CAME UP TO BORROW
SOME DRAIN CLEANER LATE

ONE EVENING AND ENDED
UP STAYING THE NIGHT.

WELL, I DIDN'T PLAN IT THAT WAY.

TO THINK YOU
ACTUALLY SOLICITED MY

INVOLVEMENT IN THIS
SORDID PERSONAL EPISODE.

I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO
HUMILIATED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.

OH, DARLING, I'M SORRY.

BUT THAT HOWLING BEAST HASN'T
ALLOWED ME A PROPER SLEEP FOR WEEKS.

A PROPER PENANCE, I WOULD SAY.

AND WHO ELSE IN THAT BUILDING HAVE
YOU GIFTED WITH WEIMARANERS, HMM?

THE SUPERINTENDENT, PERHAPS?

I CAN SEE THIS IS
LEADING NOWHERE.

HOW ABOUT THE JANITOR? IS HE
SLEEPING ON LEATHER SHEETS TOO?

OH, FOR GOODNESS SAKE, PHIL! I
GOT THOSE LEATHER SHEETS AS A GIFT.

I DIDN'T LIKE THE GRAIN, AND
I DUMPED THEM ON MULLINS.

YOU GOT THEM AS
A GIFT? FROM WHO?

I SUPPOSE YOU'VE HEARD
OF THE GREEN BAY PACKERS?

OH, RELAX, PHIL.

IT WAS ONLY THE OFFENSIVE LINE.

MR. BUSTAMONTE?

- WHO IS IT?
- UH, SORRY.

IT'S, UH, SERGEANT GOLDBLUME.

- WHAT DO YOU WANT?
- I JUST WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

WELL, LISTEN. I DON'T HAVE
TIME TO TALK RIGHT NOW.

I'M MOVING OUT.

GOOD GOD, WHAT HAPPENED?

I RAN INTO AN
OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE.

MY FAULT FOR BELIEVING THERE
WAS ANYTHING I COULD DO ABOUT IT.

IF SOSA'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS, YOU
FILE THE CHARGES. I'LL PUT HIM AWAY.

I DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING
FOR YOU OR ANYBODY.

I CAN LIVE WITH THE FACE.

I CAN'T LIVE WITH ANYTHING
HAPPENING TO MY WIFE AND MY KID.

LISTEN, I CAME BACK BECAUSE I WANT
TO PUT THAT LITTLE TYRANT IN HIS PLACE.

THE ONLY WAY THAT'S
GONNA HAPPEN IS IF SOMEONE

TALKS TO A JUDGE... YOU,
ONE OF THE OTHER TENANTS.

HE THREATENED YOUR FAMILY!

NO ONE KNOWS BETTER THAN ME
HOW WELL THE POLICE CAN HELP.

WHERE IS HE?

IS HE IN HIS OFFICE?

HE'S ALWAYS THERE.

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE.

WHATEVER YOU'RE GONNA DO, UH,
WILL YOU WAIT TILL I GET OUT OF HERE?

- YEAH, BELKER.
- MICK. GOOD. THIS IS HENRY. YOU BUSY?

- ALWAYS. WHAT DO YOU WANT?
- I'VE GOT A SITUATION THAT
COULD USE A LITTLE ASSISTANCE.

I NEED YOU AND THE TWO
NOSEGUARDS FROM THE NIGHT SHIFT.

HOMER AND CYDEL? WHAT'S THE MATTER,
YOU LOSE SOME CATTLE ON THE EXPRESSWAY?

MICK, YOU EVER WISH YOU COULD GET
EVEN WITH YOUR HIGH SCHOOL BULLY?

- I DID.
- WELL, THIS IS GONNA BE BETTER.

SO HOW ARE THOSE DOUBLE
"A" MEETINGS COMING ALONG?

YOU'RE STILL GOING,
AREN'T YOU? THANKS.

UH, OFF AND ON.

UH, LET'S CHANGE
THE SUBJECT, OKAY?

YOU HAVE A PLANE
TO CATCH, OR WHAT?

YOU'VE BEEN EYEING THAT WATCH
OF YOURS EVER SINCE YOU SAT DOWN.

GOT A SPECIAL DUTY ASSIGNMENT.
- 00. NO BIG DEAL.

I... I DON'T WANT TO
TALK ABOUT THAT, OKAY?

YOU GOT A LOT OF NERVE,
YOU KNOW THAT, J.D.?

I DON'T HEAR WORD ONE FROM
YOU FOR OVER THREE WEEKS,

AND THEN SUDDENLY, FOR
SOME AS YET UNKNOWN REASON,

YOU CALL UP AND YOU WANT
TO MONOPOLIZE MY AFTERNOON.

I KNOW YOU GOT DRESSED UP,
AND I'M... AND I THOUGHT, "WHY NOT?

"LUNCH AT SOME
NICE, ROMANTIC SPOT.

MAYBE HE WANTS TO PICK UP WHERE WE
LEFT OFF." BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO GO OUT.

YOU DON'T WANT TO GO TO BED. WHAT
DID YOU COME UP HERE FOR ANYWAY?

I... I DON'T KNOW.
I-I'M A LITTLE SHAKY.

I JUST NEEDED SOMEBODY
TO TALK TO, I GUESS.

WELL, IF YOU'RE LOOKING
FOR A SURROGATE

CRUTCH TO GET YOU
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON, J.D.,

YOU CAME TO THE WRONG PLACE.

OH, YOU'RE REALLY
SOMETHING, YOU KNOW THAT?

I COME UP HERE FOR A LITTLE SUPPORT,
A LITTLE UNDERSTANDING. WHAT DO I GET?

I COULD'VE DONE BETTER
WITH A $20 HOOKER!

YOU'VE ALWAYS HAD MORE THAN YOUR
SHARE OF CHARACTER DEFECTS, J.D.

BUT UP TILL NOW, SELF-PITY
WASN'T ONE OF THEM. OH, YEAH.

I HATE TO SAY IT, BUT
YOU WERE A HELL OF A

LOT MORE ATTRACTIVE
WHEN YOU WERE DRINKING.

- WHAT DO YOU WANT?
- SERGEANT GOLDBLUME, MR. SOSA.

- I WAS HERE...
- YEAH, I REMEMBER. SO WHAT?

THOSE SAFETY VIOLATIONS I NOTICED ON
MY FIRST VISIT... THEY HAVEN'T BEEN FIXED.

- I THOUGHT I'D STOP BY
AND REMIND YOU.
- GET OUT OF HERE.

NOT THIS TIME, MR. SOSA. YOUR
SWEATY LITTLE REIGN OF TERROR IS OVER.

I'M THE LAW IN
THIS BUILDING NOW.

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT
SUPPOSED TO MEAN, HUH?

I'M KNOCKIN' YOU
OFF YOUR THRONE. OH.

YOU'VE INTIMIDATED THESE
PEOPLE LONG ENOUGH.

UP TILL NOW THE LAW'S BEEN ON YOUR SIDE,
BECAUSE IT'S BEEN SLACK AND INDIFFERENT.

THAT'S CHANGED.

NOW, YOU EITHER FIX THIS HELLHOLE,
MAKE IT A SAFE AND DECENT PLACE TO LIVE IN,

OR I'M GONNA SEE YOU GET MORE
TROUBLE THAN YOU CAN CAUSE.

OH, I'M... I'M SHAKIN'
IN MY BOOTS, JEW BOY!

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
TO DO BETTER THAN THAT!

NOW, YOU AIN'T GOT A LEGAL
LEG TO STAND ON. YOU KNOW THAT.

THAT'S WHY YOU BRUNG
ALONG THESE TYPES.

ALL YOU CAN DO IS TRY AND
SCARE ME, SEE? BUT I DON'T SCARE!

WHAT'S THE FIST FOR, SOSA? YOU CAN'T HIT
ME. I'M UNDER 65. NOBODY'S HOLDING MY ARMS.

A MAN LIKE YOU DOESN'T
HAVE THE GUTS TO START

A FAIR FIGHT. YOU
LITTLE PUNK! I'LL SHUT...

YOU SAW IT. ASSAULTING
A POLICE OFFICER.

HEY, YOU CAN'T DO THIS
TO ME! I GOT LAWYERS!

ALL RIGHT.

YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE
IN CUSTODY LOCKUP, SOSA?

PEOPLE LIVING IN
EACH OTHER'S STINK.

FOOD THAT LEAVES YOUR
GUT ACHING AFTER EVERY MEAL.

THE LICE ARE SO BAD THEY CRAWL UNDER
YOUR BEDSORES AND LAY THEIR EGGS.

AND YOU THINK YOU'RE TOUGH?

YOU HAVEN'T SEEN
ANYTHING TILL YOU'VE

SNUGGLED UP WITH AN
18-YEAR-OLD SOCIOPATH...

WHO'S JUST KILLED HIS
MOTHER WITH A TIRE IRON.

ASSAULTING AN OFFICER
IS ONLY FOR OPENERS.

I SWEAR TO YOU, SOSA, IF YOU HURT THESE
PEOPLE ONE MORE TIME, I'LL PUT YOU THERE.

DOESN'T MATTER WHAT
THE CHARGE IS. I'LL FIND ONE.

AND WHEN YOU'RE OUT,
I'LL COME AFTER YOU AGAIN.

YOU DON'T WANT THAT, SOSA.

TAKE IT FROM AN ANGRY
COP. YOU'D RATHER DIE FIRST.

I ALREADY GOT A
MEETING FRIDAY NIGHT.

SEEMS THIS NASTY FOX NAME OF TRUDY'S
LOOKING FOR CHARTER MEMBERSHIP...

IN THE THEODORE
CARTER OFFICIAL FAN CLUB.

HOW ABOUT YOU, JACK? YOU
BACKING OUT ON THE COALITION TOO?

I PROMISED MY OLD LADY WE'D GO TO
A MOVIE ON FRIDAY NIGHT. OH, YEAH?

AH, BUT... WHAT THE HELL?
I'LL TRY AND MAKE IT, OKAY?

CONFERENCE ROOM, 8:00.

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT
YOU'RE GOING THROUGH, BOBBY.

I'VE FACED SIMILAR RESISTANCE AS THE
ASSISTANT SECRETARY GENERAL OF WAD.

WAD? WOMEN AGAINST
DISCRIMINATION.

AND NOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN ELECTED
THE NEW VICE PRESIDENT OF THE B.O.C.,

I GUESS YOU CAN SAY
WE'RE SOUL MATES, HUH?

YEAH, I GUESS WE
COULD, MRS. FURILLO.

OF COURSE, OUR POLITICS ARE
SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THAN THE COALITION.

BUT IN TERMS OF POLITICAL INTENT,
WELL, I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU...

HOW MUCH WOMEN AND
BLACKS HAVE IN COMMON.

THE THING I REALLY WANTED
TO SAY TO YOU, THOUGH, WAS...

I THINK IT'S ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL
WHAT YOU'RE DOING FOR YOUR PEOPLE.

THANKS, MRS.
FURILLO. CALL ME FAY.

FAY, IT WAS NICE TALKING
TO YOU. AND BELIEVE ME,

IF THERE WAS EVER A PLACE THAT NEEDS
YOU, IT'S THIS WHITE, MALE-DOMINATED DUMP.

I MEAN, TURN AROUND AND LOOK. HOW
MANY BLACK OR FEMALE FACES DO YOU SEE?

RIGHT THIS WAY. OKAY.

- COME ON. RIGHT OVER HERE.
- EASE UP, JACK!

NOT NEARLY ENOUGH. RIGHT.
WHICH IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY...

WE'RE STAGING OUR FIRST SIT-IN AT
CHIEF DANIELS'S OFFICE ON WEDNESDAY.

A SIT-IN? CHIEF
DANIELS'S OFFICE? RIGHT.

WELL, WE'RE STILL IN NEGOTIATIONS
WITH HIS TOP AIDE ON QUOTA HIRING.

BUT, UH, IF ALL ELSE
FAILS, FILM AT 11:00.

LISTEN, WHATEVER YOU
DO, DON'T TELL FRANK.

HE WOULD ABSOLUTELY KILL ME.
BOBBY, YOU KNOW WHAT WE OUGHT TO DO?

WE OUGHT TO GET TOGETHER
FOR DINNER SOME NIGHT AND RAP.

YEAH, I'D LIKE THAT, FAY.

BOBBY!

I'M NOT ASKING YOU FOR
A DATE. I JUST THOUGHT...

WE COULD HAVE A REALLY
MEANINGFUL INTERACTION.

RECRUITING DRIVE,
FAY? NO, FRANK.

ACTUALLY, WHAT I WAS DOING
IS, I CAME BY TO ASK YOU...

IF YOU CAN TAKE FRANK
JR. ON WEDNESDAY EVENING.

THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE I'M GONNA
BE TIED UP. UH, GEE, I'M NOT SURE.

I... I'LL HAVE TO
CHECK MY CALENDAR.

I MEAN IT. CALL ME.

I ALMOST BOUGHT
IT OUT THERE, BOBBY.

IF YOU WEREN'T SO WRAPPED UP IN PLAYING
V.P. FOR THAT DAMN COALITION OF YOURS,

NONE OF THIS WOULD'VE HAPPENED.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I'M TALKING
ABOUT EIGHT INCHES OF RAZOR ACROSS MY ARM.

I'M TALKING ABOUT 16
STITCHES IN COUNTY GENERAL.

A FOOT MORE TO THE RIGHT, AND THEY'D BE
PUTTING A SHEET OVER ME RIGHT ABOUT NOW.

MAN, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH. I'LL LIVE, NO THANKS TO YOU.

YOU KNOW, I DON'T
UNDERSTAND YOU, BOBBY.

FOR THE LIFE OF ME, I
DON'T UNDERSTAND...

HOW SOME HALF-BAKED
POLITICAL GIG COULD BE

MORE IMPORTANT TO YOU
THAN YOUR OWN PARTNER.

COME ON, RENKO.

WE'VE ALREADY BEEN
THROUGH THIS, RENKO.

YOU KNOW THE SITUATION I'M IN WITH
THE COALITION RIGHT NOW AND ALL.

SAVE IT FOR THE
BROTHERS, BROTHER.

THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT
I'VE COMMITTED MYSELF TO, RENKO.

AND IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE THAT,
THEN IT'S JUST TOO DAMN BAD.

HEY, I'LL BE BACK WITH YOU OUT
ON THE STREET IN TWO LOUSY DAYS.

YOU SURE ABOUT THAT, MAN?

YOU'RE GETTIN' SO
ONE-TONE LATELY,

I WAS WONDERING IF YOU MIGHT NOT
PREFER A BLACK PARTNER NEXT TIME OUT.

HEY, WELL, MAYBE THAT
WOULDN'T BE SUCH A BAD IDEA!

TRACY SAYS THAT THEY'RE
ALMOST DONE WITH THE TESTS.

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR
ARM? LINE OF DUTY, POP.

SO YOU MUST BE PRETTY HAPPY
ABOUT GETTING OUT OF HERE.

WHAT DID THEY
SAY... THE DOCTORS?

HAVEN'T SAID NOTHING YET.

WELL, DO YOU NEED
ANYTHING? MONEY?

UNION PAYS FOR EVERYTHING. WORKED
MY WHOLE LIFE FOR A HOSPITAL BED.

DON'T SAY SOMETHIN'
LIKE THAT, POP.

YOU'RE GONNA BE OKAY. YOU'LL
SEE. YOU'RE A STRONG OLD GUY.

YOU KNOW, I, UH...
I DROVE BY THE...

OLD HOUSE ON DUTCH
STREET YESTERDAY.

BEEN A COUPLE OF YEARS.
THEY HAVE A TWO-CAR

GARAGE WHERE THE OLD
WISHING WELL USED TO BE.

THEN I SORT OF GOT TO THINKING
ABOUT, WELL... ABOUT MAMA,

AND ABOUT THE WAY THAT...

WE ALL SORT OF... LOST
EACH OTHER WHEN SHE DIED.

I GOT TO THINKING ABOUT THOSE...

BARBECUES WE USED TO HAVE
EVERY SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

REMEMBER THAT? YOU IN THAT OLD APRON WITH
THOSE CROSSED CHICKEN BONES. REMEMBER THAT?

OH, POP, THAT WAS ABOUT THE
BEST HOUSE A KID COULD GROW UP IN.

SO ME AND TRACY, WE WERE THINKING
THAT WE'D LIKE TO DO IT AGAIN...

HAVE A BARBECUE, ALL OF
US TOGETHER, THIS SUNDAY.

- THAT SOUND GOOD TO YOU? THIS SUNDAY?
- THAT'S FINE.

UH, WE COULD DO IT
SATURDAY IF YOU WANT TO. FINE.

- WHATEVER DAY'S GOOD FOR YOU.
- I DON'T CARE.

COME ON, POP. YOUR KIDS WANT TO SEE
YOU. DOESN'T THAT MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU?

I REMEMBER... REMEMBER?

REMEMBER WHO'S THE OLD MAN HERE.

BARBECUES ALWAYS
ENDED IN A FIGHT.

I THREW A HAM AT YOUR MOTHER ONCE.
NOBODY LIKED THE BARBECUES. I HATED 'EM.

WELL, YOU'RE GONNA COME ANYWAY.

AND THERE'S GONNA BE
POTATO SALAD AND COLESLAW,

AND YOU'RE GONNA SIT AT A TABLE
AND TALK TO YOUR KIDS, DAMN IT.

THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON ALL MY LIFE. I
DON'T THINK YOU GAVE SIX SMILES TO ME!

NOW, I KNOW I DIDN'T GROW
UP TO BE WHAT YOU WANTED.

BUT YOU NEVER DID TELL
ME WHAT YOU WANTED!

IT'S TIME FOR MY NAP.

I'M SORRY, DADDY.

I'M STUPID.

I GOTTA GET MY NAP, DOCTOR SAYS.

HEY, GOOD BUDDY. OKAY.

YOU WANNA WIRE ME FOR
SOME AM/FM? HE'S DRUNK.

I'M READY. WHAT'D YOU DO?

THAT'S IT. I'M PULLING THE
PLUG. NO, MAN. WE'RE SET TO GO.

YOUR PARTNER, THE TRIGGER ON
THIS OPERATION, IS FALLING ON HIS FACE.

- HEY, I'M READY. I'M HERE.
- GIVE ME THE WIRE. I'LL DO IT.

AND GET YOUR HEAD
BLOWN OFF? HOLLAND

DOESN'T KNOW YOU. HE'LL
RECOGNIZE THE MONEY!

WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO? I CAN
HANDLE THIS! SHUT UP, J.D., DAMN IT!

SHUT UP! SANCHEZ, STAY OFF THIS LINE
TILL YOU HEAR FROM ME. UNDERSTAND?

LET ME DO IT, CAPTAIN. I CAN TALK MY WAY
IN. I KNOW THE MENTALITY. IT'S NO BIG DEAL.

- YEAH, NO BIG DEAL.
- DO YOU WANNA BE THE COP
WHO MISSED THE BUST...

ON A FOUR-STAR DUST LAB
BECAUSE OF A LOUSY DRUNK HERE?

HUH? HUH?

YOU BRING DOWN LaRUE, YOU BRING
DOWN YOURSELF AND EVERYBODY HERE.

MAN, LISTEN...

ALL RIGHT, NEAL.
PUT ON A WIRE. UH...

- WHAT DO YOU WANT?
- HEY, MAN, JOHN SENT ME.

GOT THE MONEY. FIFTY GRAND.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

THE WHITE DUDE'S OUT.
POLITICS, BABE. I'M THE MAN NOW.

YOU THINK I'M STUPID?
THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM.

I'M HOLDING $50,000 THAT'S
GOTTA MOVE TONIGHT.

AND IF YOU DON'T WANT IT JUST
SAY SO, AND I'M GONE, MY MAN.

- I DON'T WANT IT.
- YOU GOT IT.

HOLD IT.

YOU TRY ANYTHING
AND I'LL KILL YA.

STRAIGHT AHEAD.

LAY THE MONEY DOWN ON THE
TABLE. WE CAN HAVE A COUNT.

OKAY, MY MAN. LET ME CHECK OUT
THE STUFF FIRST. RIGHT OVER THIS WAY.

STRAIGHT AHEAD.
YOU'VE GOT FOUR BOXES,

12 BOTTLES TO THE BOX... YOURS.

OR MAYBE I'LL JUST KEEP IT,
SMART STUFF, AND THE MONEY TOO.

- POLICE OFFICERS! OPEN UP!
- POLICE! DROP THE GUN!

LISTEN, CAPTAIN...
NO, NO, YOU LISTEN.

IF YOU THINK I'M GONNA STONEWALL
FOR THAT JERK, WELL, YOU'RE WRONG.

NEAL. I-I'M SORRY, MAN.

LOOK, I DON'T WANNA
SEE YOU FOR A WHILE, J.D.

HEY, HEY, HEY, NEAL. COME ON.

YOU CAN PUT THIS IN YOUR CAR.
- 00,

AT THE MAIN CONFERENCE HALL,
DIVISION. I'VE BEEN WATCHING YOU HIT ON...

ALL THE UNCLE CHOCOLATES AROUND
TOWN, AND DOING A SHUCK ON MY TYPES.

SO I JUST DROPPED BY TO
GIVE YOU ATTITUDE YOU MISSED.

I'LL GET BACK TO YOU.

YOU WANT TO CONTRIBUTE
TO THE COALITION, VERNON?

NOT REALLY. SEE, I'M GONNA SPLIT
IT LIKE A CHICKEN... AND YOU TOO.

YOU KNOW WHAT A JOB ACTION IS?

THAT'S WHEN THE EMPLOYEES PUT ON
THE SKIDS AND DO EVERYTHING BY THE BOOK.

SEE, NOTHING GETS DONE.

HALF THE BLACK OFFICERS ON THIS
FORCE ARE READY TO PULL A JOB ACTION...

IF THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE TO DO
TO GET PARITY IN THIS DEPARTMENT.

SEE, I'M GONNA SHOW YOU
WHAT REAL POWER CAN DO.

YEAH, YOU'RE A POWER
JUNKIE, AREN'T YOU, VERNON?

DOESN'T MATTER WHAT
THE ISSUES ARE, SO LONG

AS YOU GOT SOMEBODY
TO JUMP WHEN YOU SAY SO.

THE POINT IS, MY FRIEND, I HAVE
TAKEN A PERSONAL DISLIKE OF YOU.

YOU GOT NO CLASS, NO BRAINS, YOU
GOT NO GUTS, AND YOU GOT NO SOUL.

THE WORST KIND OF BLACK MAN IS ONE
WHO DUMPS ON HIS PEOPLE, AND THAT'S YOU.

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT! ALL RIGHT.
BREAK THIS UP. WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

NOTHIN'.

WILBUR HARMON WAS RELEASED TODAY

ON WHAT THE DISTRICT
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE...

IS CALLING A "PROCEDURAL
IMPROPRIETY."

DETAILS OF THE IMPROPRIETY
WERE NOT DISCLOSED.

HARMON WAS ARRESTED
LAST TUESDAY...

IN CONNECTION WITH THE SHOOTING
DEATH OF ATTORNEY PAMELA GILLIAM...

ARE YOU GOING TO WATCH HIM? AND WAS BEING
HELD IN COUNTY CORRECTIONAL FACILITY...

FOR FOUR DAYS PENDING
ARRAIGNMENT THIS AFTERNOON.

WE DON'T HAVE THE PEOPLE.

I GUESS THE THING TO DO NOW
IS JUST PUT IT OUT OF MY MIND.

YOU CAN DRIVE YOURSELF CRAZY
THINKING ABOUT THESE THINGS.

JOYCE, SOONER OR LATER THESE
GUYS SLIP UP. YOU KNOW THAT.

YOU MEAN WE'LL GET HIM WHEN
HE KILLS SOMEONE ELSE... MAYBE.

FRANK, THEY ARE BACK.

I'M SORRY. EXCUSE ME.

JERRY. ALL DONE, FRANK.

HALF A TON OF CHEMICALS AND
EQUIPMENT, AND, UH, SOME GUNS TOO.

ANY PROBLEMS?

TEXTBOOK OPERATION. IN AND OUT.

GOOD WORK, NEAL.
THANKS, CAPTAIN.

YOU, ESPECIALLY, J.D.
CONGRATULATIONS.

JUST STEALING MY
PAYCHECK, CAPTAIN.
