DROP IT! COME ON!

PREVIOUSLY, ON HILL STREET BLUES...

MAN CAME OUT WITH A PIECE, HARRY.

WE HUNTED THE GUY.

HEY, LIEUTENANT, UH, IS IT TRUE THAT

HORSES CAN'T SEE ANYTHING DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THEM?

DO YOU THINK THAT YOU, UM, WOULD MARRY ME?

I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA GIVE ME THE BOOT,

SURE AS ANYTHING.

DO YOU, JESUS EMILIO MARTINEZ,

TAKE THIS WOMAN TO BE YOUR LAWFUL WEDDED WIFE?

YEAH, I DO.

I NEED US BACK TOGETHER SO MUCH.

WE HAVE BEEN SEPARATE.

OKAY. LET ME GET THROUGH THE REST OF THIS, PLEASE.

WHAT DO YOU SAY, HUH? ITEM 11.

MORE GANG VIOLENCE.

NIGHT SHIFT REPORTS.

ANOTHER DRIVE-BY SHOOTING.

3:00 AM. THIS TIME ON GYPSY BOY'S TURF.

NO CASUALTIES.

CAPTAIN SAYS THAT YOU CAN EXPECT REPRISALS.

IT'S GONNA BE THIS BAD AND WORSE UNTIL THEY

SIGN SOME OF THOSE TREATIES.

ALSO, SAME ITEM. WE GOT A GANG SUMMIT.

RIGHT HERE. ROLL CALL

NINE HUNDRED HOURS THIS MORNING.

PURPOSE IS TO LOWER TEMPERATURES AND I GUESS, TO LET THEM

AIR SOME OF THEIR GRIPES.

NOW, SOME OF THOSE GRIPES ARE GONNA BE AIMED RIGHT

AT THIS MARCUS PEABODY.

THAT'S THE GUY THAT MAYOR CLEVELAND

HAS APPOINTED THE HEAD

OF THE YOUTH CORPS SUMMER JOBS PROGRAM.

MOST OF US CAN REMEMBER THE HONORABLE MR. PEABODY

AS A MEMBER OF THE BLOOD.

WHAT IS... THE GUY PUTS ON A SUIT AND ALL OF A SUDDEN,

HE'S A CITIZEN, RIGHT?

COFFEY, WHY DON'T YOU SAY THAT RIGHT TO HIS FACE?

HE'S GONNA BE AT THE GANG SUMMIT.

YOU AND RUDY WILL BE BABYSITTING.

ALSO, GIVE ME MACLAY AND KAYSACH ON THAT ONE.

MOVING RIGHT ALONG.

ITEM 12.

STRAIGHT FLUSH.

ONCE AGAIN, WE GOT YOUR UNSAVORY CRIMINAL ELEMENT

STRONG-ARMING YOUR LOCAL BAR OWNERS.

THIS TIME IT'S TO GETTIN' THEM TO INSTALL

SOME OF THE LATEST AND THE STATE OF THE ART,

ELECTRONIC GAMBLING DEVICES.

NOW, WHAT WE'RE TALKIN' ABOUT HERE

IS YOUR BASIC COMPUTERIZED VIDEO POKER GAME.

WE GOT DETECTIVE BELKER ON THIS ONE, AND WE GOT

OFFICERS, HILL AND RENKO, ASSIGNED UNDER COVER.

WE'RE HOPIN', IN FACT, THAT BELKER CAN INFILTRATE

THE WHOLE ORGANIZATION.

GUYS, WORD OF CAUTION.

DON'T DRAW TO AN INSIDE STRAIGHT.

ALL RIGHT!

ITEM 13. BUDGET CUTS.

CITY COUNCIL JUST PUBLISHED A LIST

OF PROPOSED DELETIONS TO THE NEW BUDGET.

AND I AM REAL SORRY TO SAY THAT IT LOOKS LIKE

THE EQUINE UNIT IS IN BIG TROUBLE.

HOWEVER, LIEUTENANT HUNTER IS GONNA BE ADDRESSING

THAT VERY SUBCOMMITTEE THIS MORNING.

AND HE FEELS, OR HE'S PRETTY SURE ANYWAY...

THAT AS HE SAID, HE CAN TALK SOME

HORSE SENSE INTO THE NAYSAYERS.

ALMOST DONE GUYS.

JUST GOT A COUPLE MORE ITEMS, PERSONAL NATURE.

MICK BELKER REMINDS ME TO REMIND YOU THAT

THE CHESSBOARD ON HIS DESK IS THE FOCUS OF AN ONGOING

SERIOUS CONTEST BETWEEN HE AND LT. HUNTER.

SO, DON'T TOUCH THE PIECES.

CHESS? THEY CAN'T EVEN PLAY TIC TAC TOE.

OKAY. ALSO, ANDY RENKO WANTED ME TO ANNOUNCE

THAT HE KNOWS THAT SOME OF HIS GROOMSMEN

HAVE NOT YET HAD THEIR TUXEDO FITTING.

NOW, NOW, NOW. THE GROOM DON'T WANNA,

UH, UH, LEAD ANYBODY DOWN THE AISLE,

LIKE SCHOOL BOYS IN NOTHIN' BUT, UM...

JOE COFFEY AND, UH, MY BEST MAN, UH...

COME ON. ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.

ALL RIGHT, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE.

IT'S AT SAM WATERLOO'S ACRE OF TUXEDOS

1797 WEST POLK, Y'ALL. 1797 WEST POLK.

LAST ITEM. ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.

IT'S BEEN PRETTY GOOD.

THIS WARM STREAK LOOKS LIKE IT'S GONNA LAST

FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER WEEK.

NOW, IT'S COME TO MY ATTENTION

THAT SOME OF YOU SUN-LOVERS HAVE BEEN

USING THE ROOF OF THIS VERY BUILDING

AS A KIND OF PERSONAL SOLARIUM.

WHAT YOU DO WITH YOUR LUNCH

IS WHAT YOU DO.

BUT I HAVE HERE, YOUR BASIC MEMO

FROM DIVISION.

IT SAYS THAT ONE OF THEIR COPS

JUST WENT OVER OUR ROOF YESTERDAY

AND SAW TWO OFFICERS, ONE MALE AND ONE FEMALE,

SUNBATHING IN THEIR UNDERWEAR.

ALL RIGHT! GIVE ME A BREAK,

WILL YOU PLEASE?

YOU WANT ME TO GO UP THERE AND PADLOCK THAT DOOR?

GOT IT? THAT'S IT. LET'S ROLL.

AND LET'S BE CAREFUL OUT THERE, HUH?

- WHERE'S YOUR PARTNER? - LATE.

THIRD TIME IN A WEEK, MAN.

- WHITE GUY. - MM-HMM.

HOW DEAD HE LOOK?

DOCTOR GAVE HIM A COUPLE MORE WEEKS.

YO, HARRY, WHAT'S THE MATTER?

THE WORST, MAN.

THE WORSE START ON A DAY.

THAT METER... NAH.

I REAR-ENDED A GUY AND GUESS WHAT?

HE DIED. NO INSURANCE.

MY INSURANCE IS UP. UH-OH.

WE TALKIN' WHIPLASH? WE TALKIN' WHIPLASH,

TONSILS, APPENDICITIS,

SHOOTING PAINS. I WANNA KILL HIM.

YOU MEAN, THE GUY YOU'RE GONNA BE WORKING FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?

FLOYD JOYNER'S LOOKIN' FOR ME.

I TOLD HIM TO COME UP HERE.

HEY, HEY. LOOK, BOY.

ANYTIME YOU FEEL LIKE DOING SOME POLICE WORK,

WE GOT THREE SHELVES OF MENDOZA FILES

TO GO THROUGH, OKAY?

MY GOODNESS, MICK. YOU AMAZE ME.

YOU BRING TO THE BOARD PREDATORY INSTINCTS

AND, UH, A KIND OF NAIVE GUSTO

THAT IS MARVELOUS TO BEHOLD.

OCCASIONALLY, REMINISCENT OF THE RAW, NATIVE ENERGY

OF A YOUNG CASABLANCA.

A SICILIAN DEFENSE OPENING THESE

BROAD CORRIDORS TO YOUR BISHOPS.

THE BOLD THRUST OF YOUR QUEEN'S SIDE PAWNS.

BUT UNFORTUNATELY, MICK, AS YOU HAVE HERE,

THE YOUNG CASABLANCA OFTEN FELL VICTIM

TO HIS OWN EXCESSES.

SPEED AT THE EXPENSE OF STRATEGY.

BRUTE, A SHOW OF POWER,

AT THE EXPENSE OF FINESSE.

IN SPITE OF WHICH I MAINTAIN THAT

IF YOU WOULD TAKE THE TIME

TO REFINE YOUR GIFTS, MICK,

YOU HAVE ALL THE MAKINGS OF A FIRST-RATE PLAYER.

CHECKMATE.

WE HAVE A 911.

ARMED ROBBERY IN PROGRESS...

♪♪

♪♪

HI, TODD COURTNEY WITH THE P.D.'S OFFICE.

I'LL BE HANDLING MS., UH, DAVENPORT'S CASELOADS.

EXCUSE ME.

DAVENPORT BEING CALLED TO TRIAL?

UH... YEAH. MUST HAVE.

SHE, UH, PHONED THE OFFICE AND ASKED SOMEBODY

TAKE HER CASE INTERVIEW.

I DON'T WANNA HEAR NO BABY-TALK.

MARTINEZ, TABLE OF FOUR.

I THINK I CAN RELISH IT.

RELISH WHAT?

THE LOOK ON THAT GEEK'S FACE WHEN I RIDE DOWN ON HIM

FROM THE SADDLE OF AN ARABIAN STALLION.

THE HORSE RACE STRIKES AN ALMOST SUPERSTITIOUS

FEAR INTO YOUR UNEDUCATED CITY-DWELLING GROUND TYPES.

LOOK AT CORTÉS.

AND THE SUBJUGATION OF THE AZTECS.

DETECTIVE H. GARIBALDI, PLEASE.

SO, JOYNER, YOU WANNA COME TALK?

WELL, GO RIGHT OVER HERE, PLEASE.

IT'S A CRIME, YOU KNOW?

WHAT YOU DID.

OPERATIN' WITHOUT NO INSURANCE.

IT'S ALSO A CRIME, MR. JOYNER,

IF YOU EXAGGERATE AND YOU PERJURE YOURSELF ABOUT YOUR INJURIES.

NOW I HIT YOU GOIN' ABOUT TEN MILES PER HOUR.

I'M UNEMPLOYED, GOT THREE KIDS TO FEED,

AND SOME COP, WITH A JOB, GOES AROUND HAVIN' ACCIDENTS

WITH NO INSURANCE.

LOOK, IF YOU GET ME AN ESTIMATE FOR YOUR CAR

AND YOU SEND ME THE DOCTOR BILLS,

I'M GONNA MAKE SURE YOU GET PAID.

HEY, I DON'T WANT YOU TO...

SWEAT BLOOD.

I DON'T WANNA SUE NOBODY NEITHER, BUT...

I'M-I'M IN TROUBLE, AND YOU COPS ARE RESPONSIBLE.

HOW'S THAT, MR. JOYNER?

BUSTED A COUPLE NIGHTS AGO, ON MY WAY HOME FROM A GAME,

COP SAID SOMETHIN' ABOUT A ROBBERY.

TOOK ME BACK TO A LIQUOR STORE.

WHITE KID, WORKED BEHIND THERE, SAYIN' I'M THE ONE.

AND YOU HAD DOUGH ON YA?

FROM SHOOTIN' THE CRAPS.

AND I HAD A GUN.

WHICH I HAVE A PERMIT FOR!

LAST GIG WAS SECURITY GUARD, YOU KNOW?

YEAH, WELL, THE COPS, YOUR P.D.,

THEY CHECK OUT THE CRAP GAME TO FIND ANY WITNESSES?

A FLOATIN' GAME LIKE THAT,

YOU'LL NEVER SEE THEM DUDES AGAIN.

WELL, MR. JOYNER, DO YOU HAVE A CRIMINAL RECORD?

ONE CONVICTION, 12 YEARS AGO,

FOR FIGHTIN', BUT THAT'S-THAT'S IT.

DETECTIVE, I AM INNOCENT.

I MEAN, THE GUY SAID HE WAS ROBBED FOR 200.

I HAD 400 ON ME.

WHAT I'M DOIN' ROBBIN' HIM IF I'M HOLDIN' $200?

YOU COULD'VE ROBBED SOMEPLACE ELSE BEFORE...

OH, COME ON. GIVE ME A BREAK!

I GOT A WIFE AND THREE KIDS TO FEED.

ALL I'M ASKIN' IS YOU HELP ME WITH THIS

AND I'LL DROP MY WHOLE INJURY CASE.

YOU FORGET YOU EVER SAID THAT, OKAY?

NO, NO, NO. I WILL NOT

FORGET I SAID THAT.

PLEASE. I CANNOT GO TO PRISON

FOR SOMETHING I DID NOT DO.

ALL RIGHT, LOOK. I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.

IF THE ARREST REPORT BACKS UP WHAT YOU SAY

THEN I'LL INVESTIGATE. NOW, I'M NOT GONNA

GET YOU OFF. I'M NOT GONNA CHANGE ANYTHING.

INVESTIGATE.

YOU INVESTIGATE.

AND YOU'LL GET NO LAWSUIT FROM ME, BROTHER.

SIMPLE LOGIC OF WAR, CAPTAIN.

TREATIES EXPIRE, AND PEOPLE TRYIN' TO JOCKEY FOR POSITION,

BE IN POWER, IN THE NEW TREATIES.

I'M FULLY AWARE OF THE REASONS FOR THESE INCIDENTS.

I'M HERE TO TELL YOU ALL, THERE NOT GONNA BE TOLERATED.

WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IS TO UNDERSTAND IS...

JOCKEYIN' AIN'T GONNA PAY.

IT'S LIKE IN MY JOB PROGRAM.

AIN'T NO WAY

ANYBODY DOES TROUBLE, THEY GONNA GET A JOB.

AND LIES LIKE A BLOOD.

EXCUSE ME?

EVERYBODY KNOWS WHERE THE PROBLEM'S AT, PEABODY,

WITH A CAPITAL "P."

YOU'RE GIVIN' THE JOBS TO THE BLOOD

AND YOU'RE SELLIN' THE JOBS OUT.

JOBS GO TO WHO'S QUALIFIED, MAN.

LIES.

YOU'RE LYIN'.

PREVIOUS WEEK, THIS INDIVIDUAL AND I

HAD A SITUATION.

DUDE GOT NOISY. I HAD TO ADMINISTER

AN AMOUNT OF DISCIPLINE.

AIN'T THAT RIGHT, ERNESTO?

HAD TO PUT YOU IN LINE, DIDN'T I?

YOU LOSE YOUR COLORS, PUNK?

WHAT'S DUMBER THAN A DIABLO IS A DIABLO

- WITHOUT HIS JACKET, MAN. - MARCUS TOOK HIS JA-CKE-TA.

A LOT OF JACKETS. A LOT OF TIMES.

GONNA BRING YOU DOWN, MA... YOU UNDERSTAN...

YOU...

NATALIE?

SEE HOW YOU THINK THIS READS.

"TO MISPLACED LOVE...

"ALTHOUGH THE MILES MAY SQUASH THE SMILES

"WE SHARED SO LONG AGO,

"AND YOU'RE IN VEGAS, AND I'M NOT,

"MY HEART STILL ACHES FOR YOU SO.

"SO, ROLL THE DICE.

"I'LL TAKE THAT CHANCE AND TEND THE WINDOW'S LIGHT.

"BUT IF YOU CRAP OUT,

JUST REMEMBER, I'LL ALWAYS BE HERE."

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I WA... I WANNA WORK ON THE END A LITTLE.

IT'S CUTE, LEO.

CUTE? WELL, I MEAN IT'S NICE.

SO, YOU LIKE IT? YEAH.

ARE YOU GONNA SEND IT THEN?

MAYBE I SHOULD WORK ON IT SOME MORE.

IT COULD ONLY GET BETTER.

YOU'RE RIGHT. THE ENDING

DEFINITELY NEEDS A LITTLE MORE OOMPH.

I DON'T KNOW.

HAS IT MADE ANY PROGRESS?

IT'S THE POWDER KEG.

GET ME A BREAKDOWN OF YOUTH CORPS' JOB OFFERS.

BY GANG. IF POSSIBLE, RACIAL.

LUCKY THEY STOPPED YOU, CHUMP.

YOU COME AROUND LOOKIN' FOR A JOB THE RIGHT WAY,

MAYBE YOU GET IT.

WHAT'S UP, MAN?

I HAVE TO PAY YOU OFF?

GO AHEAD.

BE THE FOOL, MAN.

AW, MAYBE YOU'RE THE FOOL, PEABODY.

I SEE YOU BUSTED, MAN. LET HIM GO, MAN!

HEY, LET HIM GO, MAN! I'LL TAKE CARE OF HIM!

I CAN TAKE CARE OF HIM! HEY, 'NESTO!

STOP ACTIN' LIKE A KID.

YOU GOT SOMETHIN' TO SAY TO ME, MAN?

I'M WEARIN' THE COLORS. I'M A MEMBER HERE.

AND I'M GETTIN' NOTHIN' FROM YOU.

YOU AIN'T DOIN' NOTHIN'.

WHAT DO YOU NEED?

I NEED THE DIABLO LEADER

TO BE A MAN.

BIG TALK FOR A KID, 'NESTO.

AW, THE HELL WITH YOU, MAN!

YOU AIN'T GONNA DO NOTHIN'.

I HEARD MARCUS.

HE SAID HE'D GIVE YOU THE JOB.

NOW, YOU WANT ME TO GO TO HIM

AND SAY, "DON'T GIVE HIM THE JOB."

WHAT DO YOU HAVE, BRO?

WHAT KIND OF SATISFACTION DO YOU WANT?

IT'S NOT THE JOB, MAN!

LET'S GO HOME.

NO!

THEY'LL GET OVER IT...

I SAY, THE HELL WITH YOU!

MR. BRANDON?

YEAH?

AH.

JIMMY LASTARZA.

WE TALKED ON THE TELEPHONE.

RIGHT.

SO, WHAT'S THE MATTER? WHY THE LONG PUSS?

WELL, UH...

NOT SURE I WANT THOSE POKER MACHINES.

YOU'RE NOT SURE? WELL, THAT'S WHY I'M HERE.

I THOUGHT I MIGHT BE ABLE TO PERSUADE YOU.

SO, I BROUGHT ALONG THESE, UM...

STATISTICS.

YOUR GUY ALREADY SHOWED ME THE BROCHURE, MR. LASTARZA.

IT'S, UH... NOT THE PROBLEM.

THAT'S WHY I GOT MAD AT HIM.

HE DON'T KNOW HOW TO CLOSE.

BUT, UH...

WASN'T EXACTLY HIS FAULT, MR. LASTARZA. I MEAN, UH...

HEY, MR. BRANDON. MR. BRANDON.

YOU'RE LOOKING AT ANOTHER SOURCE OF REVENUE.

I MEAN, I HAVE 37% INCREASE

IN REPORTED PROFITABILITY,

WHICH, BETWEEN ME, YOU, AND A LAMPPOST,

CASH BUSINESS LIKE THESE MACHINES,

I MEAN, WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME

YOU HEARD A GUY REPORT HIS LAST DIME OF PROFIT?

I'D LOVE TO MAKE THE DOUGH. IT'S FRANKLY, UH...

I'M AFRAID TO GET INVOLVED.

WITH WHAT'S THAT, WALLY?

WITH YOU FELLAS.

WALLY... LOOK.

I HAD TROUBLE GETTIN' THIS LICENSE.

I DID A TWO-YEAR BIT WHEN I WAS A KID.

THERE'S ALL KINDS OF TROUBLE, WALLY.

STATISTICS SHOW THAT VARIOUS THINGS CAN HAPPEN

IF YOU DON'T MAKE THE INSTALLATIONS.

DON'T START WITH THE THREATS.

STATISTICS...

DON'T LIE.

SUDDENLY, I MEAN, THERE'S A DROP-OFF OF SALES.

CLIENTELE ARE GOING ELSEWHERE, WHICH HAS THE POKER MACHINES.

TO INCIDENTS OF THE SMALLEST...

WEAR AND TEAR.

TO INCIDENTS OF YOUR PHYSICAL LAYOUT.

PAGE? HEY, COME ON!

ALL THE WAY TO FLAME.

THAT'S ENOUGH.

LOOK AT THIS.

A BUTT-IN-SKI.

YOU KNOW, SOMETHIN'?

ANYBODY CAN HAVE AN INCIDENT.

JOEY! JOEY!

I'LL CUT HIS NOSE OFF! JOEY! JOEY...

THAT'S MY FACE, JOEY. JOEY. JOEY, MY FACE.

LAY BACK.

NOW, MR. BRANDON HAD SPECIFIC RESERVATIONS,

WHICH YOU ARE NOT HELPING.

HOW DO YOU WANT ME TO HELP?

WALLY!

I'M AFRAID OF LOSING CONTROL OF MY JOINT.

WELL, WE'LL PUT IT ON A TRIAL BASIS.

HE PUTS 'EM IN FOR A MONTH.

AFTER THAT, HE CAN HAVE 'EM REMOVED,

NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

GREAT. GREAT.

50% A PIECE.

WALLY? ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

WALLY! OKAY!

ALL RIGHT, YOU GOT A DEAL.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

MIKE.

MIKE WHAT?

FLESHER. YOU HIS PARTNER?

HE'S GOT A NOTE WITH ME.

I'M JUST SUPERVISIN' MY INTEREST.

YOU WANT I SHOULD GO FOR THE MACHINES?

YEAH, GO GET THE MACHINES, JOEY.

YOU'RE AN EXCITABLE GUY, MIKE.

WELL, I DON'T WISH TO SOUND PREJUDICED,

SIR, BUT...

TAKE A LOOK AT THAT.

I CALL THAT ONE OF THE MOST

STATELY STEEDS THAT EVER TOOK BITS BETWEEN TEETH.

I'M TO UNDERSTAND YOU PURCHASED THE HORSE?

YES, AND I WISH TO DONATE HIS SERVICES TO THE CITY

ALONG WITH $5.00 PER DIEM TOWARDS HIS STABLE COST.

MAY I ASK WHY YOU ARE MAKING THIS OFFER?

UH, BUDGETARY EFFECTIVENESS IS MY LANGUAGE TOO, GENTLEMEN.

COMPARE THE BENEFITS TO THE COMMON WELL

OF THIS PARTIALLY SUBSIDIZED EQUINE STRIKE FORCE,

VERSUS THE NUMEROUS BUDGET ITEMS

CONTAINED IN HERE, WHICH CONSTITUTE

LITTLE MORE THAN PITCHING TAX DOLLARS

INTO A BLAST FURNACE.

BUDGETARY ADIPOSE, GENTLEMEN,

MOST EVIDENT IN LINE

OF 39B, FUNDING BILINGUAL EDUCATION

FOR PEOPLE WHO'S FIRST AND LAST LANGUAGE

WILL ALWAYS BE PRE-VERBAL.

OR, UH... 57J,

COUNSELING SERVICES FOR UNWED MOTHERS?

GENTLEMEN, PLEASE.

PROVIDE THEM WITH SCARLET LETTERS IF YOU WILL...

HEY! JUST WAIT ONE MINUTE, BUSTER!

EXCUSE ME, FAY?

YOU'VE ALREADY SPOKEN, MA'AM.

YES, I KNOW. BUT YOU KNOW,

YOU NEVER LET ME FINISH.

AND-AND BESIDES, I... WHAT I WANNA SAY IS THAT

THAT IT'S REALLY UNFAIR TO PUSH ONE PROGRAM

BY BELITTLING THE UNWED MOTHERS PROGRAM.

IT'S OUR JOB TO DECIDE WHAT'S FAIR HERE, MA'AM.

AND YOU MAY HAVE NOTICED THAT LT. HUNTER HAS THE FLOOR NOW.

- THANK YOU. - UH, EXCUSE ME, ONE MINUTE, HOWARD.

BUT I WONDER IF THESE GENTLEMEN WOULD BE PREPARED TO GIVE UP

SOME OF THEIR GOODIES.

YOU KNOW? LIKE THEIR RAISES, THEIR JUNKETS TO TOKYO

WHICH HAPPENS TO BE OUR SISTER CITY OF THE ORIENT.

AND HAS MUCH TO OFFER IN THE WAY OF RAPID TRANSIT

AND MANUFACTURING EXPERTISE.

RIGHT, NOT TO MENTION CHEAP PEARLS

AND FREE VACATIONS FOR THE WIVES.

YOU KNOW, UNWED MOTHERS GET NO GOODIES, GENTLEMEN.

UH, THE HORSE HAS A LONG AND NOBLE HISTORY

OF CONFLICT RESOLUTION.

IF YOU ARE SO EAGER TO SEE HOW OTHER PEOPLE LIVE,

I SUGGEST YOU TAKE A JUNKET UP TO SOUTH DECKER.

VISIT AN UNWED MOTHER LIVING IN THAT SQUALOR.

WITH NO HEAT, NO FOOD, NO MONEY, AND MOST IMPORTANT,

NO HOPE FOR HER CHILD'S FUTURE.

YOU KNOW THAT THE TAX MONEY SPENT ON ONE OF YOUR WIVES'

PLANE TICKETS COULD FEED THEM BOTH FOR MONTHS.

MA'AM, YOU'RE ENTIRELY OUT OF ORDER.

YOU HAVE USED UP YOUR ALLOTMENT OF TIME.

I DON'T CARE!

I REFUSE TO SIT IN SILENCE WHILE YOU LET GENERAL CUSTER HERE

CONVINCE YOU TO DO FOR HORSES

WHAT YOU WON'T DO FOR HUMAN BEINGS!

FOR THE FINAL TIME, NEITHER OF THOSE ISSUES

AS BEEN DECIDED.

HOWEVER, DESPITE WHAT YOU MAY THINK OF THIS COUNCIL,

COMMON SENSE SHOULD TELL YOU THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO ROB

UNDERPRIVILEGED CITIZENS SO THAT A HANDFUL OF POLICEMEN

CAN PLAY "RIDE 'EM COWBOY."

THAT'S VERY REASSURING.

THANK YOU.

LT. HUNTER, I BELIEVE YOU HAVE ONE MINUTE LEFT.

UH, JOURNEY WITH ME NOW, BACK TO THE STREETS OF ANCIENT ROME.

OFF TO A WINE-TASTING, HUH?

SO, YEAH...

I'VE BEEN HELD UP ABOUT SIX, EIGHT TIMES

IN TWO YEARS. LOOK. EXCUSE ME, IF I LOST COUNT.

WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME?

FOUR TIMES IN THE LAST FOUR MONTHS.

LOOK, I'M A LIQUOR STORE.

I'M THE ONLY CASH MACHINE IN TOWN.

SO, WHAT'S NEW?

MAYBE YOU NEED A NEW SET OF GATES.

A NEW NEPHEW. THEN GATES.

UH, THAT'D BE SAMMY MORSE? AM I RIGHT? IS HE WORKIN' TODAY?

NOW, THAT'S THE $64,000 QUESTION.

YOU WANNA MAKE YOURSELF USEFUL?

WHY DON'T YOU FIND SAMMY, AND I CAN GO TO LUNCH.

MY PAPERWORK INDICATES THAT MR. MORSE PHONED IN

THE LAST FOUR ROBBERIES.

OH, HE'S GOOD AT THAT. HANDING OVER MY TILL.

BUT ASK HIM TO PUT THREE CASES OF STOLI

IN THE BACK, AND HE COMES OUT WITH THE COUGHS,

HE'S GOT THE DRIPS, PLUS HE'S GOTTA GO OUT

FOR FRESH AIR. AND PLUS, IF YOU GO COUNT THE STOCK

THE NEXT DAY, THERE'S ONLY TWO CASES.

LOOK IT, DON'T GET ME STARTED HERE.

OKAY. SO, WHY DON'T YOU GET RID OF THE GUY?

I'M GONNA GO TO MY SISTER'S HOUSE

WITH THANKSGIVING DINNER AFTER I FIRE HER LITTLE SAMMY?

OKAY. LOOK, WOULD YOU DO ME A FAVOR?

IF MR. MORSE COMES IN TODAY, WOULD YOU HAVE HIM CALL

DET. GARIBALDI, AT THIS NUMBER?

SURE.

IF HE COMES IN SOMETIME THIS YEAR.

MR. BRANDON?

MR. FRANCO.

WALLY BRANDON.

BUT WHERE'S THIS MIKE?

THAT'S THE GUY I WANNA MEET.

I'M RIGHT HERE.

YOU'RE MIKE?

YEAH. WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

NICE TO MEET YOU. LESTER FRANCO.

NICE TO MEET YOU, LESTER.

SO, MR. BRANDON, I UNDERSTAND

WE GOT A TRIAL MARRIAGE.

30 DAY, NO FAULT, ARRANGEMENT.

- RIGHT. - RUN IT DOWN FOR HIM, JIMMY.

WELL, THE MACHINES DON'T PAY OFF WHEN SOMEBODY WINS.

GOTTA PAY THEM FROM YOUR REGISTER.

WHICH THE MACHINES TRACK THE PAYOFFS.

DON'T CHEAT YOUR PARTNERS.

YOU PARTNERS WITH THIS FELLOW, MIKE?

NO, I JUST MADE HIM A LOAN TO GET STARTED.

YEAH, JIMMY TELLS ME, UH...

YOU MIGHT HAVE SOME INTEREST IN MAKIN' SOME OTHER LOANS.

YOU MIGHT WANNA PUT SOME DOUGH ON THE STREET.

IT'S A DEFINITE POSSIBILITY.

BECAUSE WE HAVE WAYS TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN.

WE HAVE A STEADY STREAM OF LOAN APPLICATIONS,

WHICH WE GET FROM MANY...

COUPLE OF SODAS AT THAT MACHINE OVER THERE, PLEASE.

RIGHT DOWN.

TWO SODAS.

WHAT DO I DO NOW?

- BUCK AND A HALF. - ALL RIGHT.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

I GOT TWO KINGS, AN ACE, AND TWO LITTLE ONES.

WELL, PUSH THE BUTTONS UNDER WHAT YOU WANNA KEEP,

PUNCH DRAW, AND YOU'LL GET A COUPLE MORE CARDS.

OKAY.

- YOU PLAY THOSE? - AH, TOO HARD FOR ME TO STOP.

I'M THAT WAY WITH COOKIES.

OH, MY GOD. LOOK AT THIS!

- WHAT HAPPENED? - FULL HOUSE.

SEE THAT? THOSE MACHINES, THEY'LL LOSE.

AT WHAT?

PAY HIS 30 TO ONE. PAY THE MAN OFF, WALLY.

HEY, PAY THE MAN, WALLY.

ALL RIGHT, THAT'S IT.

THIS ESTABLISHMENT IS CLOSED.

OH, MAN.

LADY, LADY. WHAT IS THE DEAL HERE?

THIS BAR IS BEING PADLOCKED FOR VIOLATION

OF THE STATE LIQUOR LAW OF GAMBLING ON THE PREMISES...

- MA'AM, NO, NO. - MA'AM, YOU DON'T...

- NOW DON'T GIVE ME A HARD TIME, SIR. - LADY...

LADY, WHAT ABOUT MY 30 TO ONE?

YOU CAN TURN IT INTO 30 DAYS IF YOU LIKE, PAL.

OH, I CAN, CAN I?

INTERFERING WITH THE STATE LIQUOR AUTHORITIES.

- THIS IS A TRAVESTY! - ANDY. ANDY!

THIS IS A MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE. YOU HEAR ME?

OKAY, EVERYBODY OUTSIDE, SIR.

I SAID A MISCARRIAGE.

ARE YOU THE OWNERS HERE?

- NO. - NO, MA'AM.

I SUGGEST YOU LEAVE.

SEE THIS, MIKE. YOU SEE, THIS IS

A GREAT ARGUMENT FOR DIVERSIFICATION.

LET'S, YOU AND I, TALK.

THERE WAS AN ENSUING SCUFFLE, DURING WHICH MARCUS BACKED

OFFICER DAVIS INTO A SHARD OF GLASS.

INADVERTENTLY?

IT APPEARED SO.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

YEAH, IT'S, UH... JUST A BAND-AID CUT.

RUDY, ANY OBJECTIONS IF WE DON'T BRING CHARGES?

NO, NONE HERE.

I GRABBED THE GUY. IT GOT A LITTLE HOT.

IT HAPPENS.

OKAY, THANKS. THAT'S ALL.

THANK YOU.

I APPRECIATE THAT, FRANK.

MR. MAYOR, I HAVE TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

I THINK YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PEABODY.

FRANK, WE BOTH KNOW THIS KID'S BACKGROUND.

HE'S COME A LONG WAY.

I WANNA GIVE HIM THE SHOT. I'D LIKE TO SEE HIM WORK OUT.

SO WOULD I, BUT IN THE MEAN TIME, HIS TEMPER ASIDE,

I KEEP HEARING ALLEGATIONS OF CORRUPTION.

HE'S HIRING ONLY MEMBERS OF HIS OWN GANG.

WILL YOU CHECK THAT OUT FOR ME?

WE'RE DOING THAT.

HOW ARE YOU DOING ON THE TREATY RENEWAL?

WE'RE TRYING.

I NOTICED A BUMP IN INCIDENTS.

ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN THEY'RE ABOUT TO EXPIRE.

CAN I TAKE PEABODY WITH ME?

YEAH. WE SHOULD BE RELEASING HIM SOON.

THANKS, FRANK.

SINCE WHEN DO YOU PEOPLE MOVE ON A PLACE WITHOUT NOTIFYING US?

I COULD ASK YOU THE SAME QUESTION.

THERE'S A SLIGHT DIFFERENCE.

NOT ONLY DID YOU COMPROMISE AN OPERATION,

YOU PUT OFFICERS AT RISK.

WHICH WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED IF I'D KNOWN

- THE GUYS WERE IN THERE... - BUT YOU WOULD'VE KNOWN

HAD YOU BOTHERED TO CHECK.

OKAY. SO THE LEFT HAND OUGHTA KNOW WHAT

THE RIGHT HAND IS DOING.

AND MAYBE THAT WOULD BE THE CASE,

IF IT WASN'T FOR THE FACT THAT THE LEFT HAND HAS BEEN

KNOWN TO DIP INTO THE WRONG POCKETS.

I SUPPOSE, TO THE SPOTLESS RECORD OF YOUR DEPARTMENT.

OKAY.

SO, NOW WE BOTH SEE HOW THE SITUATION COULD HAPPEN.

LET'S GET ONE THING STRAIGHT. THIS ISN'T JERRY FUCHS

YOU'RE DEALING WITH NOW.

WHATEVER HAPPENED BEFORE IS HISTORY.

I DON'T WANNA HAVE OUR PEOPLE JEOPARDIZED

- BECAUSE OF IT. - OKAY, I HEAR YOU.

I STILL HAVE PEOPLE OUT THERE, AND I DON'T WANT YOU ANYWHERE

NEAR THEM. IN FACT, I WANNA KNOW EVERY MOVE

- YOU MAKE FROM HERE ON OUT. - OKAY! ALL RIGHT.

SORRY ABOUT THE MIX UP.

FRIENDLY CROWD, UP HERE.

SEE YOU LATER.

MR. BRANDON, I'M TRYING TO GET UP TO SPEED ON WHAT...

YOU'RE TRYING TO GET UP TO SPEED?

I GET APPROACHED BY SOME MUSCLE GUYS,

AND I COME TO YOU PEOPLE, AND I WIND UP CLOSED.

AND MY LICENSE IS GONE.

MY BEST UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THE STATE

LIQUOR AUTHORITY WAS UNAWARE THAT WE HAD AN UNDERCOVER.

WHY DON'T ALL YOU PEOPLE SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE?

DON'T YOU ALL TALK BRIBE?

NOW, LOOK!

WE'RE GONNA DO THE BEST WE CAN

TO GET YOU OPEN AS FAST AS WE CAN.

GREAT! AND WHO'S GONNA PUT FOOD ON MY TABLE MEANTIME,

- AND PAY MY BILLS. - I'M REALLY VERY SORRY ABOUT THAT.

BUT I CAN PROMISE YOU, WE'RE GONNA TRY TO STRAIGHTEN IT OUT.

THAT'S IT? YOU'RE GONNA TRY.

THAT'S IT!

I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED.

LET'S GO BE A CITIZEN!

THAT GUY'S REALLY GETTING A BUM SHAKE.

NO ARGUMENT, MICK.

IS YOUR COVER AHOLD?

YEAH, I THINK SO.

HOW DID YOU LEAVE IT WITH THEM?

I'M SUPPOSED TO GO TO THIS OTHER JOINT, THIS AFTERNOON.

EXCUSE ME, NEAL.

NEAL, CAN I TALK TO YOU FOR A SEC?

YEAH, SURE. I'LL TALK WITH YOU LATER, CHERRY, OKAY?

ALL RIGHT, I PULLED ALL THE PAPERS.

NOW, THIS FLOYD'S A CLEAN FAMILY GUY.

AND THE LIQUOR STORE CLERK IS A BUM.

HEY, LOOK, YOU HAVEN'T EVEN TALKED TO THE GUY, HARRY!

RIGHT! HE DIDN'T CALL.

NOW, I'M TELLIN' YOU HIS OWN UNCLE THINKS HE'S A TOTAL BUM.

FROM THE DESCRIPTION, HE SOUNDS LIKE A DRUGGIE.

LOOK, I'M GONNA RUN HIS P.C.I.

HARRY, CAPTAIN WANTS TO SEE YOU RIGHT AWAY.

NATALIE, I'VE BEEN WORKIN' ON THE POEM.

DO YOU WANNA HEAR THE NEW VERSION?

DO I HAVE TO?

I REALLY PUNCHED IT UP.

LEO, LOOK, I REALLY HATE SAYIN' THIS, YOU KNOW?

BUT I THINK YOU'RE KIDDING YOURSELF.

YOUR WIFE BOUGHT A TICKET TO VEGAS,

AND IT WAS ONE-WAY.

YEAH.

I MEAN, YOU OUGHTA GET ON WITH YOUR OWN LIFE.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

WHAT DO YOU DO AT NIGHT?

I DON'T KNOW.

GOT MY DICE BASEBALL SET.

YEAH?

YEAH, THERE'S A HOT PENNANT RACE ON.

SO, THAT'S A PLUS.

YOU EVER PLAY IN AN AWAY GAME?

WHAT?

WHY DON'T YOU PLAY AT MY BALLPARK TOMORROW?

YOU LIKE CHICKEN IN A POT?

IT'S ONLY LEFTOVERS, BUT...

IT'S BETTER THE SECOND TIME.

LEO!

I'M PULLING THE DUTY LIST.

THERE'S SHOTS FIRED DOWN AT THAT JOB CORPS STOREFRONT.

YEAH, SURE.

YES, THE COURT CALLED.

YES, HE'S ANGRY.

CLAIMS YOU'RE TRYIN' TO GET HIM FIRED.

- NOT TRUE, CAPTAIN. - WHAT WERE YOU DOING THERE?

AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION...

YOUR ONGOING INVESTIGATION?

I ALSO RECEIVED A CALL FROM O'MALLEY ON THE NIGHT SHIFT.

HE CLAIMS YOU'RE TRYING TO MIX IN ON HIS CASE.

YEAH, WELL, IF HE'D DONE SOME POLICE WORK ON IT, THEN I WOULDN'T HAVE TO.

YEAH, I SPOKE TO O'MALLEY. I DIDN'T GO BEHIND HIS BACK.

AND HE TOLD YOU, POLITELY, TO BACK OFF.

WELL, I'M TELLIN' IT A LITTLE LESS POLITELY.

WHAT HAPPENED THIS MORNING BETWEEN YOU AND THE DEFENDANT,

FLOYD JOYNER?

HAD A LITTLE FENDER BENDER.

MY INSURANCE WAS EXPIRED.

PUTTING ASIDE THAT THAT'S A V.T.L. MISDEMEANOR,

HOW THE HELL DO YOU THINK IT LOOKS WITH YOU OUT THERE,

TRYING TO CLEAR THE GUY OF A RAP?

WHAT'S NEXT? PLEA BARGAINING HOOKERS IN THE BACKSEAT?

WAIT. THERE'S NO DEAL BETWEEN ME AND MR. JOYNER, CAPTAIN.

I THINK THAT THE MAN IS INNOCENT.

I SAY THERE IS A DEAL, WHETHER YOU AGREE TO IT

IN WORDS OR NOT.

STAY AWAY FROM IT.

- THE MAN IS INNOCENT... - STAY AWAY!

HEY!

HE'S GOT A GUN! HE'S CRAZY!

LACUNO, WHAT HAPPENED?

THIS PUNK KID COMES IN AND SAYS

HE HAD AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE MARCUS.

- MARCUS PEABODY? - RIGHT.

- BUT WHO'S THE KID? - DIABLO, THAT CRAZY FREAK

THAT JUMPED HIM THIS MORNING.

I KNEW SOMETHIN' WAS WRONG WITH THAT DUDE.

I KNEW SOMETHIN' WAS WRONG.

MARCUS DIDN'T LET HIM IN, THOUGH, YOU KNOW?

SO, HE GOES IN.

- STARTS SHOUTIN'. - YEAH, UNIT 2203...

WE HAVE A HOSTAGE SITUATION AT THE YOUTH CORPS JOB CENTER.

THE DIABLO KID HAS MARCUS PEABODY.

HEY! YOU TELL

JESUS MARTINEZ, IF HE DON'T WANNA TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS,

I'M GONNA DO IT! DO YOU HEAR ME?

I'LL KILL HIM!

SOMEBODY BETTER GET MARTINEZ IN HERE.

I'M TAKIN' CARE OF BUSINESS!

IS IT MANAGEABLE IN TERMS OF BACK-UPS, HENRY?

SEEMS TO BE FOR NOW.

ALL RIGHT, THEN. HOWARD SHOULD BE THERE IN ABOUT 20 MINUTES.

ANY KIND OF BREAK, FRANK.

I THINK WE'RE GONNA GET THE KID OUT.

SERGEANT.

- SERGEANT. - IRWIN. JUDGE WACHTEL.

WHAT'S THE CEREMONY, FRANK? YOU CALL ME ALAN.

THIS IS GONNA SHOCK YOU, FRANK.

WE HAVE BEEN HAVING COMMUNICATIONS PROBLEMS

- AMONG THE ENFORCEMENT ARMS. - MORE?

I... MORE THAN THE S.L.A. FOUL UP AT YOUR UNDER COVER BAR?

NO.

I GUESS YOU COULD TAKE THIS AS ALL PART OF SAME FOUL UP.

WE HAVE BEEN MOVING ON LESTER FRANCO.

THE ONE PRODUCTIVE FACT THAT CAME OUT OF

A SHOUTING SESSION I HAD WITH THOSE S.L.A. PEOPLE

THIS AFTERNOON, WAS THAT YOU ALSO HAVE BEEN MOVING

- IN ON LESTER FRANCO. - DAMN IT, IRWIN.

THIS KIND OF CRAP IS NOT FUNNY.

I HAVE MEN OUT THERE AT RISK.

FRANCO APPROACHED WACHTEL TO TOSS THE SOUTH FERRY BUST

- ON THESE VIDEO POKER GAMES. - WHATEVER THEY EXPECTED, FRANK,

BASED ON HEAVEN KNOWS WHAT PAST HISTORY,

DOROTHY WACHTEL DID NOT RAISE A CORRUPT JURIST.

ALAN HAD AGREED TO WEAR A WIRE ON THESE GUYS.

WE HAD ARRANGED A MEETING FOR TONIGHT AT THE LUCKY DUKES.

SO HELP ME, I THINK I'M BECOMING AN EXCITEMENT JUNKIE.

THIS SHOULD'VE BEEN COORDINATED EARLIER, FRANK.

WE ARE TRYING TO COORDINATE NOW.

WE HAVE MOVED THE LIQUOR AUTHORITY'S PROCEEDING

ONTO ALAN'S DOCKET. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE

WE'RE NOT GOING TO BUMP INTO ANYTHING OF YOURS.

I'LL CALL YOU AT THE END OF BUSINESS.

HEY, LET'S NOT COP AN ATTITUDE, FRANK!

I'M THE ONE THAT'S GOIN' ON TO THE FRONT LINES.

I'M HAVING BELKER INVENTORY HIS COVER.

- I'LL CALL YOU WHEN I KNOW. - FINE. GOOD.

I'M SORRY.

I'M SORRY, FRANK. I R... I REALLY AM. I'M...

I'M-I'M SURE BELKER'S PLAYIN' HARDBALL TOO.

- ALAN. - HEY! WE'RE ALL ON THE FRONT LINES.

JUDGE!

NEAL!

NEAL, LOOK AT THE P.C.I. ON THE LIQUOR STORE CLERK.

I'VE GOT NEWHAVEN, CONNECTICUT.

LARCENY, ONE. HE COPPED TO THE MIS.

DOPE, HEROIN, ANOTHER LARCENY, ONE, ALL DISMISSED.

CALL NEW HAVEN AND SEE WHAT IT WAS?

- NOT YET. - AW, HARRY!

SIT DOWN, MAN.

NOW, YOU DO MENDOZA, OKAY?

IT'S A NICE PLACE.

HOW COME IT'S NOT OPEN?

WELL, WE DON'T LIKE TO STAY OPEN TOO LONG, MIKE.

FOUR HOURS A NIGHT.

I USE IT MORE LIKE AN OFFICE, MIKE.

WE'VE BEEN HERE NOW FOR MORE THAN 16 YEARS.

- GIMME A SEVEN AND SEVEN, WOULD YOU? - COMING RIGHT UP.

THIS ONE, THE LIQUOR AUTHORITY DON'T CLOSE.

YOU HAD NO INKLING THEY WERE AFTER YOU?

NONE, WHATSOEVER.

BECAUSE USUALLY YOU CAN SMELL SOMETHING LIKE THAT

IN THE WIND.

WHATEVER.

STEP INTO MY OFFICE.

YOU KNOW, WE THINK WE CAN OPEN YOU UP AGAIN PRETTY QUICK.

HOW YOU GONNA DO THAT?

SOMETHING WITH THE JUDICIARY.

IN THE MEANTIME, WE WANT YOU TO GET WELL AGAIN.

WE WANT TO PUT YOUR MONEY TO WORK.

GOOD. GOOD.

'CAUSE I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU FIGURED I WAS BAD LUCK.

THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS THAT, MICHAEL.

I DON'T BELIEVE IN IT.

WE PROVIDE YOU WITH APPLICANTS,

AND COLLECTION ASSISTANTS.

WE MAKE LOANS UP TO TEN G'S.

YOU GIVE US THREE POINTS A MONTH.

ANYTHING OVER THAT, YOU PAY US TWO AND A HALF.

I DON'T NEED ANY HELP WITH COLLECTIONS.

TOUGH GUY.

SUPPOSE YOU GET A POSTCARD FROM FLORIDA.

YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH HELP, MICHAEL.

YOU CAN NEVER BE TOO WELL CONNECTED.

I'M IN.

ATTABOY.

HEY, HEY, HEY! SORRY. JUST ABOUT TO CLOSE FOR A FEW MINUTES.

LET'S CLOSE THEN.

HEY, NO. SERIOUSLY.

SAMMY MORSE, RIGHT?

WHO, UH... WANTS TO KNOW?

GOT A FEW QUESTIONS.

WHAT'S THE MATTER? YOU GOT A COLD, SAMMY?

AW, MAN. I TALKED TO YOU GUYS A HUNDRED TIMES ALREADY.

EVER BEEN TO NEW HAVEN, SAMMY?

SEE, WE MADE A FEW CALLS TO NEW HAVEN COPS.

FOUND OUT YOU WORKED IN A LIQUOR STORE, RIGHT?

- WA-WAIT A MINUTE. - ABOUT THIS LARCENY BIT,

IS THAT RIGHT, WHAT THEY SAY YOU WERE DOING, SAMMY?

SKIMMIN' THE TILL LIKE THAT.

- HEY, I WASN'T... - YEAH, CLAIMED THAT

SOMEBODY KEPT HOLDIN' YOU UP.

NO, I...

BOTH TIMES THEY FOUND THE CASH IN YOUR CAR.

SIX MONTHS LATER, YOU GET BUSTED ON THE SAME SHOT IN ALBANY.

- HEY, I GOT MY RIGHTS... - ONLY COST YOU THREE MONTHS, MAN.

BUT NOW YOU'RE DOIN' IT HERE, SAM.

AND IT'S YOUR THIRD TIME AROUND TOO.

YOU KNOW, YOU COULD GO AWAY FOR A PRETTY GOOD STRETCH, MY MAN?

HEY, SAMMY.

HEY!

TEDDY, WHAT'S HAPPENIN', MAN?

HEY. HEY. EY, I WAS JUST LOOKIN' TO GET THE...

OH, NO GOOD BRO. HEY, WHAT'S A MATTER?

YOU DEALIN' FOR SAMMY? HEY, DON'T GET NERVOUS, SAMMY.

JUST PUT YOUR HANDS ON THE COUNTER. YOU TOO, MAN.

OH, MAN! THIS IS LAME! BOOZE IS LEGAL.

OOH, LOOK IT HERE.

- LOOK A HERE, MY MAN. - AW, MAN.

UH-HUH. PRETTY EXPENSIVE HABIT YOU GOT HERE, SAMMY.

YOU HAVE TO DIG PRETTY DEEP IN YOUR POCKET, DON'T YOU?

YOU HAVE TO DIP INTO YOUR UNCLE'S POCKET TOO, AIN'T THAT RIGHT?

- YEAH. - WHAT'S THAT?

- CAN'T HEAR YOU, SAMMY. - YEAH! YEAH! I SAID, "YEAH!"

UH-HUH. NO STICK UP, RIGHT?

JUST SAMMY, PICKIN' UP THE TAB FOR HIS JONES.

PUT YOUR HEAD BACK DOWN ON THE COUNTER.

YOU TOO, CHUMP.

YOU LOOK PRETTY TIRED TO ME.

LISTEN, 'NESTO.

YOU DO THE RIGHT THING, BRO.

THAT'S RIGHT. THEY'LL BE OTHER DAYS BETTER THAN THIS.

YOUR GRIEVANCES HAVE BEEN HEARD, ERNESTO.

I PROMISE YOU, SOMETHING'S GONNA BE DONE ABOUT YOUR SITUATION.

NOBODY HAS TO GET HURT.

NO! NO MORE DAMAGE.

STATUS?

HENRY'S GOT THE KID'S POSITION.

HIS ADRENALINE IS RUNNING DRY.

WE CAN GET HIM OUT, FRANK.

HOW'S PEABODY?

HE'S ALL RIGHT. WE CAN HEAR HIM.

WHO'S THE CHUMP?

UH, ERNESTO MONTE BLANCO. HE'S A DIABLO.

PICKED AT HIM THIS MORNING. KID TOOK A SWING AT HIM.

HENRY?

YOU GOT FRIENDS OUT HERE.

HE WANT ANYTHING SPECIFIC?

HIS DIGNITY BACK.

THAT'S RIGHT.

ERNESTO, ARE YOU READY TO DO WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT NOW?

DID MARCUS PROVOKE THIS IN ANY WAY?

NOT THAT WE KNOW OF. THE IMPRESSION IS

PEABODY'S STANDING HIM DOWN.

HE'S PUTTING IT DOWN. HE'S COMING OUT.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, DON'T SHOOT!

ALL RIGHT. IT'S COOL. IT'S COOL!

CHUMP MADE A MISTAKE.

- HOWARD. - VALENTINE!

COPY, DAVIS!

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

GET HIM THE HELL OUT OF HERE.

HE'S FINISHED.

GET ME THE HELL OUT OF HERE TOO.

YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT, I TOOK THE CHANCE, MAN!

HE ALREADY FIRED ON ME TWICE.

WAIT A SEC! WAIT A SEC.

HADN'T HE INDICATED HE WAS ABOUT TO SURRENDER?

HEY, MAN. LOOK, I'M NO MIND READER.

THE KID HAD A PIECE ON ME.

MY UNDERSTANDING WAS HE'D LOWERED THE GUN!

HEY, LOOK, I SELF-DEFENDED MYSELF, ALL RIGHT?

ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT?

NOW, I WAIT FOR YOU, AND MAYBE YOU TALK HIM INTO THIS OR THAT.

OR MAYBE I'M DEAD.

THERE WAS A STRUGGLE, AND THE GUN WENT OFF!

PERJURY. FILING A FALSE POLICE REPORT.

POSSESSION WITH INTENT TO SELL.

UH-UH, THIS WAY, GENTLEMEN.

NEAL!

CAPTAIN WANTS TO SEE YOU.

OKAY, LIEUTENANT.

HOWARD?

WHAT'S WRONG, HOWARD?

I HAVE JUST HEARD THAT THE EQUINE RAPID DEVELOPMENT FORCE

HAS BEEN FILLED BY THE BUDGET ACTS.

WELL, I'M SORRY.

BY HEAVENS, RAYMUNDO, AM I TO BE MASTERED

BY THESE BLUE-PENCILED, WHEELING, MEALY MINDS?

MUST MY JOY HAVE OCCUPATIONAL SANCTION?

LIFE IS TOO SHORT.

JOY TOO SELDOM TO COME BY.

APOLLO'S DEAD.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND, HOWARD.

APOLLO.

- WHAT IS APOLLO? - APOLLO! APOLLO, MY HORSE.

IF THE CITY COUNCIL DOESN'T WANT HIM,

I DO. AND I'M GONNA KEEP HIM.

YEAH, WELL, THE HELL WITH YOU, YOUR HONOR!

WHERE'S FURILLO?

HEY, FORGET IT, MARCUS.

I WANT FURILLO.

YOU'RE NOT GETTIN' HIM SO JUST LIGHTEN UP.

HE TOOK MY JOB, MAN. HE SHUFFLED ME OUT.

YEAH, BECAUSE YOU KILLED THAT KID, HUH?

HEY!

- KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF ME! - NO, MARCUS!

NO, MARC... NO MORE TEMPER!

GET OFF OF ME!

I GOT HIM. I GOT HIM.

- GET OFF ME MAN! - I GOT HIM! I'LL TAKE CARE!

WOULD YOU LIGHTEN UP, MARCUS.

YOU LIGHTEN UP, OR YOUR HEAD IS BUSTED, AND YOU'RE GONE.

TOM.

WHATEVER YOU SAY. WHATEVER YOU WANT.

YOU JUST DON'T GET YOURSELF JAMMED, UNDERSTAND?

I MEAN, YOU KNOW THE MAN TOOK MY JOB.

I JUST TALKED TO THAT TOM MAYOR, ON THE PHONE, MAN.

HE ALREADY TOOK MY JOB.

AND YOU TALK ABOUT JAMMIN' ME UP.

OKAY, WELL, I'M SORRY ABOUT THAT.

WILL YOU RELAX?

- TAKE A DEEP... - I WAS... I WAS DEFENDIN' MYSELF.

YEAH, TAKE IT EASY.

ALL RIGHT.

FURILLO! YOU SATISFIED, MAN, HUH?

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANTED? WHAT'D YOU TELL HIM, HUH?

YOU TELL HIM "PEABODY'S TOO STREET?"

- MARCUS! MARCUS! - PEABODY CAN'T KEEP CONTROL, HUH?

MARCUS.

LISTEN TO ME.

YOU ALREADY MADE TWO MISTAKES TODAY.

NOW YOU CAN'T... WIN THIS ONE!

YOU CAN'T WIN, MAN. NOT NOW!

YOU JUST MOVE ON.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?

MOVE ON!

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, MAN.

I WAS TRYIN' TO HELP.

UNDERSTAND YOU MADE A SMART BUST.

YEAH. THANK YOU, SIR.

NOW GIVE ME 30 SECONDS ON WHY I SHOULDN'T

TRANSFER GARIBALDI.

I DON'T KNOW, CAPTAIN.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD.

WHAT'S THE COUNTS?

BECAUSE HE DOESN'T LISTEN.

BECAUSE HE HANDLES HIMSELF LIKE A KID.

AND BECAUSE, MAYBE, HE GETS HIS PARTNER CAUGHT IN THE SWITCHES.

ABOUT THAT LIQUOR STORE THING, CAPTAIN...

I WENT BACK THERE ON MY OWN HOOK.

DID SOME CALLIN', DECIDED HIS COMPLACENCE WAS BAD.

BY THE WAY, I CHECKED WITH O'MALLEY,

AND THAT GUY?

HE WAS COOL, ONCE I LAID IT OUT FOR HIM.

OKAY, I'LL KEEP HIM.

HARRY'S OKAY, CAPTAIN. MAYBE HE GETS A LITTLE CUTE SOMETIMES, YOU KNOW?

BUT... HE'S GOTTA GET TAUGHT.

IT'LL BE YOUR JOB 'TIL JD GETS BACK.

I'LL TRY, CAPTAIN. YOU KNOW?

GOOD.

'CAUSE I LIKE HARRY, NEAL.

I THINK HE'S A BRIGHT, CONCERNED GUY.

BUT HE REAR-ENDED A CITIZEN. HIS INSURANCE IS EXPIRED.

A WHOLE DAY'S GONE BY, AND IT'S PROBABLY STILL EXPIRED.

I HEAR YA, CAPTAIN.

MISS DAVENPORT. LOOKING GOOD.

HERE. PUT THIS ON.

- WHAT IS IT? - TUXEDO.

- WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL DAY? - NEVER MIND WHERE I'VE BEEN.

THIS IS FOR THE SUMMER LOVE BENEFIT.

REMEMBER? THE NEED OF CHILDREN,

WHO HAVE TO GO TO SUMMER CAMP?

I THOUGHT THE DEAL WAS I'D BUY THE TICKETS

IF WE DIDN'T HAVE TO GO.

WELL, WE DECIDED TO GO.

WE DID?

I'M SORRY, FRANK.

I MEAN, I KNOW I TOOK THE LIBERTIES, BUT

I JUST FELT LIKE DANCING.

YOU REALLY MIND?

NO, IT'S OKAY.

SERIOUSLY?

JO, IT'S ALL RIGHT.

WE CAN STOP AT MURPHY'S ON THE WAY BACK AND GET A BURGER?

YOU GOT IT.

WE CAN STOP AT MURPHY'S ON THE WAY OVER AND GET A BURGER?

- FORGET THAT. - CAN WE STOP AT MURPHY'S...

GO ON! GO CHANGE.

OKAY.

NOW, YOU LOOK HERE, SUCKA.

I'VE DONE TOO MUCH COVERIN' IN MY TIME.

SO, IF YOU GONNA MAKE IT UP HERE,

YOU GONNA MAKE IT FAST, YOU DIG IT?

HARRY. NEAL.

- CAPTAIN. - CAPTAIN.

KEN AND BARBIE.

YOU FUNNY DUDE, YOU KNOW THAT?

PEOPLE LIKE YOU.

I LIKE YOU.

BUT YOU COULD GO EITHER WAY, HARRY,

AND EVERYBODY UP HERE KNOWS IT, MAN.

♪♪

I'VE NEVER DONE ANYTHING LIKE THAT BEFORE.

MY SISTER CRIED.

I DROVE TO THE SHORE.

AND I RENTED A ROW BOAT.

AND I HAD LUNCH IN THIS... IN THIS LITTLE OUTDOOR CAFE.

IT WAS WONDERFUL, FRANK.

I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT COURTROOMS,

OR SQUAD ROOMS ALL DAY.

GOOD FOR YOU, JOYCE.

THANK YOU, IRWIN.

IRWIN.

WE COULD ALL TAKE A LESSON FROM FRANK.

OR WE COULD ALL TAKE A DRINK.

OR WE COULD ALL TAKE A FLYING...

NO, IT'S MINE.

BACK IN A MINUTE.

- FRANK. - HELLO.

IRWIN.

JOYCY.

ONE HOUR, 46 MINUTES TO D-DAY.

WE'RE WORKING WHAT I'M TENTATIVELY CALLING

"OPERATION VID-SCAM."

A LITTLE DISCRETION, ALAN.

WE'RE ALL OFFICERS OF THE COURT HERE, IRWIN.

LIGHTEN UP.

I'M WEARIN' A WIRE.

YOU'RE ALSO WEARING A WIG.

WELL, THEY'LL BE EXPECTING IT.

THEY'LL THINK I'M A JUDGE TAKING A BRIBE.

THEY'LL THINK I'M SCARED.

THEY'LL THINK I THINK I'D BETTER BE INCOGNITO.

ERGO...

RUG-GO.

GOOD THINKING, ALAN.

GOTTA TRY IT, BERNSTEIN.

GIVES THIS BALDY THE WHOLE OTHER

DIMENSION OF SEXUALITY.

IT'S ALSO WARM.

I HAVE TO GO.

WHY?

I HAVE A MASSACRE ON MY HANDS.

I'M REALLY SORRY.

DO YOU WANT TO STAY?

YES.

I'LL SEE YOU TO A CAB, FRANK.

GO GET 'EM, FRANK.

IT'S ME.

"GIVE 'EM HELL WACHTEL."

IRWIN. JUDGE WACHTEL.

DON'T WAIT UP FOR ME. I'M GONNA BE LATE.

SHOOTOUTS.

GANG WARS. COVERT OPERATION.

OH, GOD. I LOVE IT.

FRANK EVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE TIME

I WORE A MIKE IN MY BRASSIERE?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT A STEAMER IS?

NO.

I GET CARRIED AWAY WHEN I BET.

AND IF I START TO LOSE, I GET STEAMED.

I START TO BUILD MY BETS UP.

MR. FRANKLIN, DOES THIS MAN LOOK LIKE A HEAD DOCTOR?

I'M JUST SAYIN', OKAY?

SO, THE BOOKIE LETS ME PLAY, MAN.

HE LETS ME GO TO A THOUSAND A GAME.

DOES THIS MAN LOOK LIKE

YOUR BOOKMAKER, MR. FRANKLIN?

I NEED THREE THOUSAND. AND I CAN PAY IT BACK

I CAN PAY IT BACK TO YA IN-IN ABOUT SIX WEEKS.

THAT'LL HAPPEN WHEN IT HAPPENS.

THE ONLY THING THIS MAN HAS GOT TO KNOW,

THAT EVERY MONDAY, UNTIL IT'S PAID UP,

YOU'RE HERE WITH AN ENVELOPE,

WITH EITHER MYSELF OR JOEY DESOTO.

HEY, HEY. WHAT TIME DO YOU WANT ME HERE, MONDAY?

EXCUSE ME. I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

NATURE CALLS.

HAS IT OCCURRED TO YOU YOU'RE FRISKING A JUDGE?

I GOT MY INSTRUCTIONS, YOUR HONOR.

- HEY! - HEY, MIKE.

WHAT KINDA MICKEY MOUSE IS THIS, HUH?

ANYBODY COULD WALK IN HERE.

MR. FRANCO SAID "SEARCH HIM."

OH, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO? SEARCH HIM OR KISS HIM?

GET THE DOORJAMB. GO ON. GO ON!

I'M WARNING YOU.

I'M TICKLISH.

I KNOW.

TWO DEAD. FIVE WOUNDED, ONE CRITICALLY.

- BYSTANDER. - WHO STARTED IT?

THEY CAME IN TO PAY BACK THE BLOOD ABOUT...

20 DIABLOS IN FOUR CARS.

THE BLOOD WERE EXPECTING TO AMBUSH HIM HERE.

FIRST GUNFIRE, THEN HAND-TO-HAND IN THE STREET.

DIABLOS GOT MESSED UP PRETTY BADLY, YOU KNOW?

HEY, WE GOT HIM, MAN! WE KILLED HIM!

THEY DRAGGED HIM AWAY!

THE TYRANTS, BLOOD TOOK OFF.

WHERE'S JESUS?

NOBODY KNOWS.

THEY SAY HE WASN'T ANY PART OF IT.

HERE'S A PIECE OF NEWS.

MARCUS PEABODY WAS WITH THE BLOOD.

THREE WITNESSES SAW.

ALL RIGHT. A.P.B. ON PEABODY.

EVERYBODY ON THE NIGHT SHIFT OUT ON THE STREET.

I'M GONNA KILL HIM, MAN!

YOU GET HIM OUT OF HERE!

HI.

HI.

IT'S A QUARTER TO TWO.

NO ONE IN THE PLACE. JUST ME AND YOU.

JOYCE.

DON'T JOYCE ME.

YOU LEFT.

AFTER YOU LEFT, I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME.

GREAT. RUB MY NOSE IN IT.

I'M NOT RUBBING YOUR NOSE IN ANYTHING.

BUT AFTER YOU LEFT...

I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME.

I LAUGHED. I DANCED.

IT FELT GOOD.

YOU COULDN'T DO THAT BEFORE I LEFT?

ALL I KNOW IS...

FROM THE MOMENT I WALKED AWAY FROM WORK THIS MORNING...

TRITE NOW.

EVERY MOMENT I'VE HAD ALONE...

I'VE BEEN HAPPY.

SOUNDS AS IF YOU DON'T MEAN ALONE.

YOU MEAN WITHOUT ME.

PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME THE HEAVY, FRANK.

I'M NOT THE HEAVY.

BUT, YES.

I LOVE YOU, PIZZA MAN.

I JUST NEED SOME TIME BY MYSELF.

WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I'M TALKING ABOUT OUR LIVES. I'M TALKING ABOUT THIS...

DAY IN AND DAY OUT, MAYHEM.

THIS WORLD THAT'S GOT NO UPSIDE.

AS FAR AS I CAN SEE, ANYWAY.

THAT WE WORK IN.

WE BRING HOME.

YOU MEAN OUR JOBS OR OUR LIFE TOGETHER?

DON'T YOU SEE HOW INTERTWINED THEY'VE GOTTEN?

I'VE KNOWN YOU FIVE YEARS, FRANK.

WE HAVEN'T TAKEN MORE THAN A LONG WEEKEND'S VACATION.

LOOK AT TONIGHT.

JOYCE, THEY'RE RUNNING WILD THEY'RE KILLING EACH OTHER.

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? SAY...

"EXCUSE ME, I HAVE A DRESS BALL TO GO TO?"

I'M NOT SAYING YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE GONE.

I UNDERSTAND YOUR PRIORITIES.

IT'S JUST THAT I... I CAN'T TAKE IT, RIGHT NOW.

I NEED A BREAK.

WHAT IF WE TOOK A VACATION?

YOU KNOW HOW...

YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES

WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IT AND NEVER TAKEN IT.

WHAT DO YOU REALLY WANT?

I WANT YOU NOT TO HATE ME FOR SAYING THIS.

I NEED A COUPLE OF WEEKS... OFF.

MINIMUM.

I NEED...

TO BE ABLE TO COME HOME ME.

AND ONLY ME.

I NEED FOR US TO BE SEPARATE.

LIKE THE OLD DAYS.

I GUESS THAT'S WHAT WE'LL HAVE TO DO.

I FEEL HORRIBLE ABOUT THIS, FRANK,

BUT I CAN'T.

I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT I'M REALLY FEELING.

I THINK WE BOTH DO.
