(NARRATOR)
PREVIOUSLY ON
HILL STREET BLUES...

WHO'S THERE?

(POUNDING TABLE)

THOUGHT IT WAS A PROWLER.

HE POINTED A GUN.

LOOK, THERE'S NO QUESTION

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO MOVE ON PEREZ,

THE POINT IS WE GOT A
SEPARATE AND LEGITIMATE

ENDANGERMENT COMPLAINT
AGAINST THE MOTHER.

TAKE A LITTLE HEAT
OFF THE DEPARTMENT, RIGHT?

IS SHE FREE TO LEAVE?

NOT AT THIS TIME.

YOU SHOT MY BOY.

I'M SORRY.

I WANT SOME OF YOUR
PEOPLE, FRANK,

UNDERCOVER IN ONE
OF THOSE SEX PALACES.

I'M GONNA HIRE COPS?

FOUR OF US.

OZZIE CLEVELAND'S
A REAL NICE GUY,

I JUST DON'T SEE HIM
AS THE MAYOR OF THE CITY.

YOU RAIDED A PORNO
SUPERMARKET

AT MIDTOWN THIS MORNING.

IT'S A CHEAP SHODDY ATTEMPT

TO PUT A FEATHER IN
CANDIDATE DANIELS' CAP

ON ELECTION DAY.

MAYBE YOU'LL LET ME
TAKE YOU OUT TO DINNER.

OH, YEAH?

(NARRATOR)
AND NOW TONIGHT ON
HILL STREET BLUES.

(TRASH CAN CLATTERS)

I TOOK THE HEAT OFF
THIS DEPARTMENT

AND OFF FLETCHER DANIELS.

I DID WHAT HAD TO BE DONE.

WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME?

YET LOSE A HATCHET MAN

AND NOW YOU WANT TO
DISAVOW ANY RESPONSIBILITY.

YOU WANT IT BOTH WAYS.

THAT IS PATENTLY UNTRUE.

NOW DON'T LOOK AT HER, NICKY.

SHE KEEPS LOOKING AT ME,

NOW WHERE'S MY STUFF?

OH, LORD, I'M GREEN.

(VARIOUS CONVERSATIONS)

ITEM SIX,
THE EMILY POST BANDIT.

DEE-DEE, PLEASE.

SAID FELON HIT THE HILL
AGAIN YESTERDAY,

MAKING A FORCED WITHDRAWAL
FROM A SAVINGS AND LOAN

ON WEST 116TH STREET.

ONCE AGAIN WITNESSES REMARK
THIS PERPETRATOR

HAS IMPECCABLE MANNERS.

THEY WERE TAKEN BY
HIS FREQUENT USE

OF "YES, MA'AM," AND
"NO, MA'AM,"

WHILE RECEIVING THE TELLER

OF THEIR CASH
DRAWER'S CONTENTS.

THEY WERE CHARMED BY
HIS KEEPING HIS HARDWARE

DIRECTED AT THE FLOOR.

- (LAUGHTER)
- PRESUMABLY BECAUSE

IT'S IMPOLITE TO POINT.

AND BY HIS APOLOGIES
ON DEPARTURE

FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE
HE MIGHT HAVE CAUSED.

A SPECULATIVE TALLY

WOULD PUT THE NUMBER OF
JOBS THIS GENTLEMAN'S PULLED

- AT 27 IN THE LAST MONTH.
- (CHEERING, WHISTLING)

THERE IS NO REASON HIS
PULLEY TEST OUGHT

TO PROMPT AN EQUAL
DEFERENCE FROM THE POLICE.

NOW YOU'VE BEEN GIVEN
A DESCRIPTION SHEET.

STUDY IT, CATCH HIM.

ITEM SEVEN,
DETECTIVES DUCK,

LARUE AND WASHINGTON

CONTINUED THEIR MISSION
AND THE INFAMOUS

AND OCCASIONALLY INFECTIOUS

8TH STREET PORN PALACE,

"MURRAY'S WONDERLAND"
TO BE REJOINED LATER

IN THE A.M. BY
LIEUTENANT HUNTER.

NOW IT'S NECESSARY
FOR ME TO MENTION

THAT SINCE THIS
OPERATION BEGAN,

CERTAIN PECULIAR ITEMS
HAVE SURFACED

ABOUT THESE PREMISES.

FOR EXAMPLE, THIS
ALL-LEATHER

- (OOHS AND AHS)
- MEGA-STUDDED HEADPIECE.

(JEERING)

MY CONSIDERABLE OPEN-MINDED
SPECULATION IT IS NOT

HEADGEAR FOR SHOWERING.

(LAUGHTER)

AND THIS CORRECTIONAL DEVICE.

(JEERING)

IS NOT A NON-TOXIC,

NON-POLLUTING ROACH KILLER.

(LAUGHTER)

ALTHOUGH I ADMIT
SEVERAL OF OUR ROACHES

HAVE BEEN NAUGHTY
OF LATE.

(LAUGHTER)

AND THIS ILLUSTRATED
AUTOBIOGRAPHY

OF EIGHT-MILLIMETER
FILM GREAT

- ANGELA ANXIOUS.
- (CHEERING)

ENTITLED
IT HURTS, BUT I LOVE IT.

(LAUGHTER)

NOT ON THE
CITY LIBRARY'S LIST

OF RECOMMENDED READING.

I ASK THE GUILTY PARTY
OR PARTIES

DISSEMINATING THESE
SOUVENIRS

TO CEASE OR RISK HAVING
HIS OR HER MIND

WASHED OUT WITH SOAP

BY YOURS TRULY UPSTAIRS.

ITEM EIGHT IS AN UPDATE
ON OFFICER MICHAEL PEREZ.

I'M AFRAID NO VISITORS ARE
BEING ALLOWED AT THIS POINT.

THE ADDRESS IS
POSTED UPSTAIRS.

I'M SURE WE CAN ALL
SPARE A FEW SECONDS

TO DROP A CARD
OR A NOTE.

NOW YOU'RE ALL HERE
BY APPRISED

OF TWO FUNDS, ONE FOR
THE PEREZ FAMILY,

AS YOU KNOW THEY WERE
FEELING THE PINCH

PRIOR TO THIS SITUATION,

AND THE OTHER DAY
MRS. DORIS ROBSON,

WITH FUNERAL EXPENSES
FOR HER SON.

OFFICER SCHNITZ
IS TAKING THE DONATIONS.

ITEM LAST.

NOW IT'S ONE MORE DAY
TILL THE ELECTION.

IT'S BEEN MY
PERSONAL OBSERVATION

THAT THE TOPIC HAS BEEN
A SOURCE OF HEATED

HALLWAY DEBATE.

A DEBATE IS HEALTHY,

BUT LET'S KEEP IT AMIABLE.

LET'S GIVE OUR FELLOW
GROWN-UPS A CHANCE

TO MAKE AN UNCOERCED
WELL-THOUGHT-OUT DECISION.

OKAY, THAT'S IT,
LET'S ROLL.

AND LET'S BE VERY
CAREFUL OUT THERE.

(VARIOUS CONVERSATIONS)

THINK I'LL GO BY
AND SEE MARIA

JUST TO LET HER KNOW
WE'RE THINKING ABOUT MIKE.

SAY, LEO, YOU GOT
CHANGE FOR A TWENTY?

- TEN EACH, PLEASE.
- LATER.

- (SIGHS)
LITTLE STAB AND MURDER.

- (HILL) HERE, GIVE ME
THE CLASSIFIED SECTION.

WHEN'S HE CHECKING
YOU OUT?

THIS AFTERNOON.

WHAT'S THE IDIOT
GRIN FOR?

YOU'RE NOT MAKING EXCUSES

TO SEE YOUR SQUEEZE,
ARE YOU, LUCE?

I DON'T HAVE
TO MAKE EXCUSES.

- WE HAVE A DATE TONIGHT.
- YEAH.

AND THE SERGEANT THREW
THIS AWAY FOR A REASON.

I WAS GOING
TO THROW IT BACK.

MM-HMM, SURE YOU WERE.

HOW COULD SHE DO THAT?

TONGUE DEPRESSORS.

OH, AH-AH.

(WOMAN ON POLICE RADIO)
WE HAVE A 911.

YEAH, I NEED TO
PHONE MY DIVISION.

GO RIGHT AHEAD.

WELL, RAMON, YOU GOING
TO WATCH THE DEBATE?

YES, CHIEF.

RAY I'M SORRY ABOUT OUR
HARSH WORDS THE OTHER DAY.

I KNOW YOU'VE GOT
A SHOPPING LIST.

IT IS NOT A SHOPPING LIST.

A LEGITIMATE AGENDA THEN,

THINGS YOU WANT
FOR YOUR CONSTITUENCY.

MY PEOPLE, CHIEF, I AM NOT
RUNNING FOR OFFICE.

YOUR PEOPLE THEN.

RAY, WHAT I'M TRYING
TO SAY IS I LISTEN.

I JUST CAN'T GIVE YOU
SPECIFICS AT THIS TIME.

WHAT I CAN OFFER YOU

IS A RIDE TO THE DEBATE

LIMO?

I'M TAKING MY BEST CAMPAIGNERS
BY CHAUFFEURED LIMOUSINE.

WHEN WE'RE THERE
I WANT YOU IN THE FRONT ROW.

I NEED TO KNOW
YOU'RE ON THE TEAM, RAY.

I'M SORRY, CHIEF, I CAN
NO LONGER PROMISE THAT.

THEN I MAY HAVE TO BREAK
A PROMISE OF MY OWN.

IF THAT COSTS ME
MY CAPTAIN'S SEAT,

SO BE IT.

SO OZZIE CLEVELAND
GOT TO YOU, DID HE?

NO ONE GOT TO ME,

NOT CLEVELAND, NOT YOU.

I JUST HAVE TO THINK.

GIVE MY SEAT TO SOMEONE ELSE.

CHIEF I THINK YOU SHOULD

BE IN ON THE STATUS SESSION

WITH DEPUTY CHIEF MAHONEY

ABOUT THE ROBSON SHOOTING.

I'M A LITTLE RUSHED FOR
TIME THIS MORNING, FRANK.

YOU AND DENNIS HANDLE IT.

CAN YOU GET ME A BUST
AT THAT PORN PALACE

BY FOUR O' CLOCK, FRANK?

THAT'S OUR PLAN.

WELL?

UH, CLEVELAND'S UP
THREE POINTS

IN WINCHESTER, FIVE
POINTS IN EASTLAKE,

THREE POINTS
IN THE RIVER DISTRICT,

AND AS FOR
THE BLACK COMMUNITY--

LET ME SEE THAT.

UNBELIEVABLE.

IT'S A HORSE RACE.

I MEAN HE ISN'T REALLY
EVEN ORGANIZED YET.

MY HUNCH IS PEOPLE
JUST LIKE THE GUY.

MORNING, CHIEF, FRANK.

DON'T EVER RUN
FOR OFFICE, DENNIS.

I'M AN ISOLATED MAN

LOCKED INSIDE AN ELECTRONIC
TOWER OF BABEL.

WE'RE HOLDING
THE FORT, CHIEF.

LET'S GO, FRANK.

THERE'S DEFINITELY ENOUGH
TO HOLD THIS ROBSON WOMAN

FOR THE GRAND JURY,
DON'T YOU THINK SO, FRANK?

NO, I DON'T.

I THINK THEY'LL DISMISS.

I THINK THEY SHOULD.

WELL EVEN IF THEY DO,

EVEN IF THEY DO,
WE'VE GOT THE WORD OUT

ON THAT WOMAN.

WE GOT THE STORY OUT,

THAT CHILD WAS LEFT ALONE.

WHO ARE WE TRYING
TO CONVINCE, DENNIS?

I TOOK THE HEAT OFF
THIS DEPARTMENT,

AND OFF FLETCHER DANIELS.

I DID WHAT HAD
TO BE DONE.

WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME?

BECAUSE I KNOW I'M RIGHT.

I KNOW THAT'S WHAT
HE WANTED TO DO.

YOU'RE PROBABLY
CLOSE THERE.

I THINK HE WANTED
IT DONE.

(DOOR OPENS)

(VARIOUS CONVERSATIONS)

CAN I HELP YOU?

I KNOW WHERE SOMEBODY IS?

WHO?

YEAH, BUT I GOT TO BE
SURE OF SOME THINGS FIRST.

DON'T ARREST ME.

ARREST ME AND I DON'T
TELL YOU ANYTHING.

AND I WANT A METHADONE
PROGRAM, STET, RIGHT NOW.

YOU PROMISE ME
OR I DON'T SAY ANYTHING.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME, MISS?

DESIREE, DESIREE HANDEL.

WELL IT'S LIKE

SOME IDEA

ABOUT WHO THIS SOMEBODY IS,

WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING

TOO BAD, YOU CAN MAKE
A BUCK IN THIS RACQUET.

I COULD TEACH YOU
THE BUSINESS.

NOT INTERESTED.

HEY WAIT A MINUTE.

TELL ME SOMETHING.

WHAT'S THE WORST PAIN
IN THE WORLD?

WHAT'S THE ABSOLUTE
WORST THING

A HUMAN BEING
CAN BE MADE TO SUFFER?

I DON'T KNOW, MURRAY.

UH, TORTURE.

LONELINESS.

MURRAY'S COMBATS LONELINESS.

SO DO CHURCHES, MURRAY.

HEY!

QUINCY GONNA KNOW.

HE CAN READ MY EYES,

MAYBE HE'S GOT YOU
BELIEVING THAT,

WE'RE GONNA BUST

HEY, HEY, LOOK.

SHE'S JUST A LITTLE
HUNKY, BABE.

OH YEAH, SURE, COME ON
LET'S GET HER

COPASETIC TO ME.

THIS BROAD WAS SO HAPPY

I WASN'T GOING

THE OTHER DRAWER,

AND SHE GAVE ME
THAT MONEY TOO.

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT?

(LAUGHS)

I TOLD DESIREE ABOUT IT.

WE GOT HIGH, AND SHE SAT

PORTIONS OF MY UNDERNEATH.

NOW IF YOU CAN FIND
SOMETHING THAT MIGHT BE

HOLDING MISS ROBSON
FOR THE GRAND JURY.

(JUDGE)
DISTRICT ATTORNEY,
THREE DAYS AGO

I RECALLED TELLING YOU
THAT WHEN WE GOT TO

THE PARTICULARS
OF THIS CASE,

YOU BETTER SHOW ME
SOMETHING OF SUBSTANCE.

WHAT YOU'VE PRESENTED HERE

LEADS ME TO CONCLUDE THAT

YOUR PROSECUTION OF
THIS WOMAN IS NOTHING MORE

THAN AN ATTEMPT TO PROTECT
THIS CITY FROM A POTENTIALLY

EXPENSIVE CIVIL ACTION.

SIR, I FIND THAT OUTRAGEOUS.

I AM APPALLED.

DEFENDANT PLEASE RISE.

THE CHARGE OF FELONY CHILD
ENDANGERMENT, DISMISSED.

CHARGE OF CHILD
ABANDONMENT, DISMISSED.

I FEEL SO SORRY.

THANK YOU, YOUR HONOR.

INVOLVED IN THIS ACTION,

I REGRET I'M NOT EMPOWERED
TO SENTENCE YOU

TO A LITTLE HUMANITY.

THERE'LL BE A LOT OF
PRESS OUTSIDE.

IF YOU LIKE WE CAN TRY
AND GO AROUND.

IT DOESN'T MATTER?

DORIS THERE'S NOTHING
PREVENTING YOU

FROM BRINGING A SUIT
AGAINST THE CITY.

AND THERE'S EVERY REASON
AT THIS POINT

TO SAY YOU SHOULD.

YOU'D BE MY LAWYER?

I'M AFRAID I'M NOT ALLOWED.

BUT I'LL GIVE YOU SOME NAMES
OF SOME VERY GOOD PEOPLE.

IF THEY DON'T PAN OUT,

I'LL GIVE YOU A FEW MYSELF.

HEY, HOW'RE YOU DOING?

YEAH.

THANKS.

WHAT A BUSINESS.

(GASPS)

YOU'RE ALL SET UP

NOW I THINK YOU CAN
SAFELY SAY

IT HAS A STREET VALUE
OF $2.5 MILLION.

WHAT?

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM,
DETECTIVE?

IT'S JUST A KILO CHIEF.

STEP ON IT FIVE TIMES

AND IT'S STILL ONLY WORTH
HALF A MILLION.

DAMN IT, SOMEBODY
GIVE ME A NUMBER.

SAY A MILLION.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I'LL
BEGIN WITH A STATEMENT.

OPERATION PIT BULL,

OUR LONGSTANDING UNDERCOVER
INVESTIGATION OF

DRUG TRANSACTIONS IN
THE PORNOGRAPHIC TRADE,

SPECTACULAR RESULTS.

WE'VE BROKEN A
MAJOR DRUG RING,

AND NETTED A QUANTITY
OF HEROIN WITH AN ESTIMATED

STREET VALUE OVER WELL
IN EXCESS OF

ONE-AND-A-QUARTER
MILLION DOLLARS.

I'D LIKE TO SPECIFICALLY
COMMEND THE WORK

OF DETECTIVE SERGEANT
NEAL WASHINGTON.

UNDER WHOSE LEADERSHIP
OPERATION PIT BULL

RACKED UP SUCH
IMPRESSIVE RETURNS.

TRULY ONE OF THIS DEPARTMENTS

DEATH OF MURRAY KAPLAN?

FAY, HOW NICE TO SEE YOU.

(WOMAN)
CHIEF, HOW ABOUT
KISSING THE BABY, CHIEF?

OH, SURELY.

HERE, COME ON, I REMEMBER
HOW TO DO THIS.

SHE'S BEAUTIFUL.

THANK YOU.

UH, WHO'S THE LUCKY FATHER?

JUDGE PAUL GROGIN.

SECRET MARRIAGE?

I'M A SINGLE MOTHER.

I'M PROUD OF IT.

A LITTLE LATE.

CHIEF, WHAT'S YOUR
POSITION ON CITY AID

TO UNWED MOTHERS?

WELL, CERTAINLY WE SUPPORT

THE NOTION OF MOTHERHOOD.

FAY, I'M RUNNING
A LITTLE LATE.

WAIT A MINUTE, LET ME
TELL YOU SOMETHING, MISTER,

THIS CITY'S POSITION ON
AID TO SINGLE MOTHERS STINKS.

I MEAN HAVE YOU ANY IDEA

WHAT AN UNWED MOTHER
HAS TO GO THROUGH?

I MEAN THE FRUSTRATION
OF BEING SHUNTED

FROM ONE AGENCY TO
THE OTHER LIKE

MEAT IN A SAUSAGE FACTORY.

I THINK IT'S TIME THAT
SOMEBODY PAID SOME ATTENTION.

FAY, NOT NOW, PLEASE.

YES.

WHEN, THEN?

I MEAN WHEN IS THIS CITY

GOING TO COME OUT
OF THE DARK AGES?

AND WHEN ARE
WE GOING TO GET

AN ENLIGHTENED ADMINISTRATION

WILLING TO COME OUT
FOR SIMPLE HUMAN RIGHTS

FOR ALL WOMEN,
SINGLE AND OTHERWISE?

FAY, THESE ARE SUBSTANTIVE
QUESTIONS, WHICH I INTEND

TO ADDRESS, UNFORTUNATELY
THE TIME ALLOTTED

TO CANDIDATES RARELY PERMITS
A PERSONAL REPLY.

EXCUSE ME.

(REPORTER)
CHIEF, HOW LARGE WAS

THIS NARCOTICS RAID?

(REPORTER #2)
WHAT'S THE WORD ON THE DEATH

OF MURRAY KAPLAN,
THE OWNER.

WHOA, YOU LOOK LIKE
A BOILED LOBSTER, SON.

BOBBY, I HAVE
MUTILATED MYSELF.

NO, IT'S SORT OF LIKE
BRIGHT RED NOW.

I'M NEVER GONNA BE
THE SAME MAN AGAIN.

WELL, COME ON,

(LAUGHS)

THIS IS ALL GOING
DOWNTOWN NOW.

RIGHT.

NICE BUST, DETECTIVE.

A CITIZEN GOT KILLED, SIR.

WELL, HE WAS A CITIZEN.

OUR WORK ISN'T OFTEN NEAT

SOMETIMES PEOPLE GET HURT.

WILL YOU EXCUSE ME,
SIR, PLEASE.

IN A MINUTE, I WANT
TO MEND A FENCE WITH YOU.

HEY IF THE CHIEF

THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE
YOU'LL BE CALLING ME "BOSS."

NO, SIR.

WHAT? SORRY, I...

IF YOU BECOME CHIEF,

THAT'S WHEN I START
LOOKING FOR A NEW JOB.

NOW HOLD ON.

NOW PLEASE LISTEN TO ME, SIR.

I'VE SEEN THE WAY YOU'VE TRIED
TO HURT PEOPLE UP HERE,

AND I'LL TELL YOU THE TRUTH,

I'D RATHER WORK FOR THE GUY
WHO RAN THAT SLEAZE JOINT

AND I ALREADY TURNED
THAT JOB DOWN.

NOW PLEASE, EXCUSE ME, SIR.

PRETTY VAGUE.

...NEWS FROM KURT ROBINSON
OF THE HERALD.

"MAY WE HAVE YOUR REACTION

"TO THE SHOOTING OF
FIVE-YEAR-OLD

"JIMMY ROBSON BY
A POLICE OFFICER.

"SPECIFICALLY TO
THE DEPARTMENT'S HANDLING

"OF THE OFFICER INVOLVED

"AND TO THE BRINGING
OF CHARGES

AGAINST THE DEAD
BOY'S MOTHER."

CERTAINLY.

THE INTERNAL AFFAIRS
INVESTIGATION

OF OFFICER PEREZ
IS ONGOING.

THEIR FINDINGS ARE DUE
WITHIN THE WEEK.

PENDING THOSE, ANY COMMENT
BY ME WOULD BE PREMATURE.

AS FOR THE CHARGES
AGAINST MRS. ROBSON,

I WOULD LIKE TO READ A COPY
OF A LETTER FOR THE RECORD,

SENT TO JUDGE OBERMAN,
SUPERIOR COURT

YESTERDAY MORNING.

"DEAR, SIR.

"OCCUPIED AS I HAVE BEEN
WITH THE CURRENT CAMPAIGN,

"I'VE HAD TO DELEGATE MANY
DAY-TO-DAY RESPONSIBILITIES

"OF THE DEPARTMENT.

"WITHOUT SECOND-GUESSING
THE JUDGMENT OF THOSE

"WHO BROUGHT THEM, PLEASE
NOTE THAT THE PURSUANCE

"OF THE CHARGES AGAINST
MRS. DORIS ROBSON

"OCCURRED WITHOUT MY
PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OR CONSENT.

"I PERSONALLY
ABHOR THIS ACTION,

WILL BE A FACTOR

"IN YOUR DELIBERATIONS.

"THE CITY OF WHICH
I WOULD LIKE TO BE MAYOR,

"WILL NOT BRING CHARGES
AGAINST DORIS ROBSON.

"SINCERELY,

FLETCHER DANIELS."

DID YOU OR DID YOU NOT
BEFORE THE DEBATE

ASK ME NOT TO POLITICIZE
THE ROBSON SHOOTING?

A TRAGEDY OF THIS MAGNITUDE
TRANSCENDS POLITICAL--

DID YOU OR DID YOU NOT

APPRISE ME OF THAT
LETTER BEFORE NOW?

I DIDN'T SEE IT AS
NECESSARILY GERMAINE TO--

WHAT PURPOSE DOES
MAKING YOUR LETTER PUBLIC

SERVE YOU NOW?

ON AN ISSUE AS
SENSITIVE AS THIS

THE PUBLIC HAS
A RIGHT TO KNOW--

(CLEVELAND)
I SAW YOU AT
THE HILL STREET STATION

WHEN THE DECISION
WAS MADE

TO PURSUE THAT CHARGE,
CHIEF DANIELS.

(DANIELS)
NOW JUST A MINUTE, OZZIE,

ARE YOU CALLING ME A LIAR?

CALL IT WHAT YOU LIKE.

IT'S CLEAR, YOU LET LOSE
A HATCHET MAN

AND NOW YOU WANT
TO DISAVOW

ANY RESPONSIBILITY.

YOU WANT IT BOTH WAYS.

THAT IS PATENTLY UNTRUE.

(CLEVELAND)
YOU DIDN'T KEEP
YOUR WORD, FLETCHER.

A WOMAN LOST HER SON,

A POLICEMAN'S LIFE
AND CAREER

ARE IRRETRIEVABLY DAMAGED.

AND THE PUBLIC DESERVES
BETTER FROM US

THAN PIOUS, SELF-SERVING,
RATIONALIZATION

AT THE EXPENSE
OF INNOCENT LIVES.

I HAVE NO QUARREL WITH THAT.

I WAS SIMPLY... I WAS TRYING

TO INDICATE MY POSITION...

WILL HAVE TO CLEVELAND
THAT ROUND ON POINTS.

THAT WAS NO DECISION, HOWARD,

THAT WAS A KNOCKOUT.

TAKE UP THE REINS.
