The rocks would take him to the Bottom of the inlet.

The rocks would take him to the Bottom of the inlet.

Not these stones. There's just Not enough of them.

- they're too small. - sure Would've been nice

To have been able to take a look At the body,

Might have tossed them over.

Might have tossed them over.

Hmm.

I just...

He's picked this spot, okay?

Full public view, right?

Full public view, right?

It's kind of like a big gesture,

Guaranteed that people are going To notice,

Yet the time's been taken

To eliminate all identifying Marks, right?

So on one hand, he's trying to Attract attention.

On the other hand, he's trying To create some kind of mystery Or...

Hey, phil. Phil.

Excuse me.

Hey, dominic, how you doing?

Are you still handling that Case,

The mutiny and the sailors and All that?

Am I still handling it? Yeah, Listen to this.

Am I still handling it? Yeah, Listen to this.

I'm interviewing these guys for The immigration case, right?

One of them gets confused about A question I ask,

One of them gets confused about A question I ask,

- and he says something about Stowaways... - stowaways?

So I ask, "Stowaways?" and he Clams right up.

So, I go, "Okay," you know, "File that one upstairs,"

And then, a couple of hours Later,

Another sailor mentions Something about stowaways,

And I get the guy in the room,

- and I say, "Hey--" - maria, Maria.

- and I say, "Hey--" - maria, Maria.

Did you get a good look at that Body

That came in last night with the Suit?

I haven't had time. I'm in a Rush.

I haven't had time. I'm in a Rush.

- I'm off to see the chief. - The chief of police?

What's all that about?

Well, I'm on my way now. I'll Tell you later.

Okay, I'll call-- what's all That about? What about the Stowaways?

So there's a conversation Between them and the Translators,

And they ask, "Can we talk Without getting in trouble?"

And I say, "Yeah,

And I say, "Yeah,

"There's attorney-client Blah-blah-blah,

Don't worry about it."

They're pulling out of the port Out there in china,

And somewhere in the middle of The pacific,

And somewhere in the middle of The pacific,

They discover there's stowaways On board.

- I know where this is going. - The captain,

He decides that he doesn't want The stowaways on board,

And he's going to dump them Over.

So where's this going?

Well, so then there's a whole Kafuffle goes on.

That's what the mutiny was About.

Okay, so, did they throw them Overboard?

Okay, so, did they throw them Overboard?

No, no. I mean, not according to What the sailors say.

The sailors say

The stowaways landed here in Vancouver

And went over the same night as The first mate.

So the stowaways were on the Freighter

- when I was on the freighter? - Apparently.

My god.

My god.

So, like I say, thanks for the Referral.

- yeah. Oh, no problem. - next Time,

Send me some clients with some Cash.

Send me some clients with some Cash.

A client with cash doesn't want You as a lawyer, phil.

Yeah, right. Thank you.

Reason I called was, I was look Over--

Have a seat.

I was looking over the roy Cardinale autopsy.

I was looking over the roy Cardinale autopsy.

Can I get you something to Drink?

No, I'm fine. Roy cardinale.

That was the young man who died

That was the young man who died

Down near the train tracks.

Coffee, water, tea, ice tea?

No, I'm fine, really.

Uh, is there a problem with the Autopsy?

Maybe.

I got to...

Cut back on the coffee myself.

Cut back on the coffee myself.

Yeah, the crown looked at it,

And they're doubtful they can Bolster a homicide charge off The evidence.

And they're doubtful they can Bolster a homicide charge off The evidence.

Oh.

Maybe a coffee.

Sure.

Sure.

Now, you found evidence

Of massive head injuries...

Just black.

Just black.

And these injuries...

Were due as direct result

Of a severe beating by an object

That you surmised to be a blunt Instrument of some sort.

Correct.

Correct.

But in actual fact,

He was killed because of massive Trauma,

Blood loss,

Because of the train.

The train severed his leg.

Right.

The beating, previous to the Train...

The beating would have caused Disorientation,

Possible loss of hearing--

He wouldn't have heard the Train, possibly--

And a detached retina,

Which would have caused Blindness, or partial blindness,

Which would have caused Blindness, or partial blindness,

Would have limited his Peripheral vision.

Unfortunately, the crown Disagrees.

They don't feel that they can, Uh...

They don't feel that they can, Uh...

Bring homicide charges.

Well, if you're asking me to Have another look,

I could do that.

I could do that.

Would you mind?

Just have another look at your Findings,

And if you can find anything More

That can bring me to help me Persuade the crown,

That would be terrific.

Well, I was pretty thorough the First time,

But I'll go over what I have,

But I'll go over what I have,

And if I have anything to add,

Then I can write it up.

No need for that.

Just, uh, give me a call

Just, uh, give me a call

And we'll go from there.

Okay.

I've been talking to the crown

I've been talking to the crown

About the roy cardinale file,

And it doesn't look

Like they're going to support

A homicide charge.

Really?

I find that surprising.

Well, even if we had someone in Custody

For the beating,

Considering the circumstances,

They think it would probably Come down

- to misadventure. - "Misadventure"?

We're looking at a few cops for This beating.

We're looking at a few cops for This beating.

How the hell's that "Misadventure"?

Well, whatever it turns out to Be,

I'm sure that the department

Will be bringing down the Appropriate charges.

You're giving it to internal?

Right.

What if it turns out

He was thrown in front of the Train?

He was thrown in front of the Train?

Are these new allegations that I Haven't heard about?

No, but it seems as if there's Been,

In addition to the beating,

Some active interference with The evidence

Some active interference with The evidence

By one of the officers.

Which will all be good to have On record

For the appropriate charges.

I'm going to hand the file over To internal,

I'm going to hand the file over To internal,

And they can deal with it.

Well, if that's the way you Think it should go,

That's your call.

For now, that's the way it is.

[maria]: turns out the meeting With the chief

Was mostly about an autopsy Report

He wanted me to review again.

He wants you to review again?

What case is that?

Uh, roy cardinale.

Uh, roy cardinale.

He was killed by a train after Taking a beating.

Just one second now.

He wants you to look at that Again?

What did bill jacobs say, now?

What did bill jacobs say, now?

Uh, he said the crown wasn't Convinced

They had enough to proceed with Homicide on the evidence.

Well, we ruled on that case.

Well, we ruled on that case.

That wasn't my case. That was Lou's case.

What did we rule?

Homicide.

Homicide, and the chief wants New evidence.

Yeah, it seems so.

Yeah, it seems so.

Well, what business is it of His?

Why is this coming from bill Jacobs' office,

Not from sergeant kurtz?

- uh... - sorry.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Anyway, I'm going to take Another look,

And I'm going to get to your Suicide

Oh, the mayor's office.

Could you see if you can book me A meeting with him?

I sure can.

Can I tell him what it's about?

Because he always wants to know.

Tell him I need to talk to him.

So, you're working on your book Again? That's good.

- yeah, I finished the second Draft. - that's great.

I'm asking a few people to take A look at it.

Just a couple of questions about Danny zinn.

Yeah, I reviewed the file after You called.

Oh, good, good, good.

You know a young woman named Sue.

Right.

Now, we don't have a last name On record

For this sue.

Is she officially a confidential Informant,

Or am I missing the paperwork on That?

Not official, no.

She wasn't up for that, so I had To use her as I could.

She wasn't up for that, so I had To use her as I could.

She seems to be the source

Of a lot of the information you Were using there.

Right.

Well, she knew danny and his Girlfriend.

Well, she knew danny and his Girlfriend.

Who you found later,

Also shot to death,

In the basement of a rooming House

Uh-huh.

I went over your notes.

I didn't find anything there.

I didn't find anything there.

Yeah, I'm not sure I checked That out.

Let's talk about your other Source there.

That would be detective brian Curtis.

Now, this c.I.--

Well, not officially a c.I., so We'll call her your snitch--

Your snitch sue,

She gave you a lot of Information

On detective curtis.

She made some allegations of his Drug use.

- is that correct? - that's Right.

- is that correct? - that's Right.

And you double checked these Sources

And confirmed the information?

Well, it wasn't easily Confirmed,

But one of the sources was Danny's girlfriend,

So I tried to confirm it, but Didn't have any luck there,

And then she was killed.

That would bring us to another Victim,

A rick prentiss.

That was another of detective Curtis' snitches.

That's right. His throat was Cut.

Bringing to three

The number of detective curtis' Snitches

That have ended up as homicide Cases.

Right. You see the pattern?

Right. You see the pattern?

Had you developed any other Sources on these cases

- other than this sue? - uh, no.

- other than this sue? - uh, no.

Uh, you know, it's a tight World,

You know, the real street scene, The low track, the young girls.

I mean, it's hard to get inside That one.

Well, I'd like to talk to sue,

And I'd appreciate it

And I'd appreciate it

If you could hook that up for Me.

I can try.

I'm not sure she'll be all that Eager to cooperate.

He's got some bruising under his Arms,

The fleshy part, there, here, You see?

That's both sides.

That's both sides.

Both sides, like somebody Grabbed him.

You see, these might be from Fingers,

Like somebody gripping him.

Oh, yeah. Well, it's fairly Pronounced.

It could be from somebody Picking him up by both arms.

Somebody would have seen that

If it happened on the bridge.

It was pretty late.

There's less traffic on that Bridge

That time of the morning, eh?

Hmm.

Hmm.

Seems very unusual.

Have you identified him yet?

Yeah, he's italian, a banker.

Yeah, he's italian, a banker.

Did you let homicide know about This?

About the bruising? Did they see That?

Yeah. They're going to come Over and take a look.

Yeah. They're going to come Over and take a look.

You've got a good one here.

Oh, yeah. This is something.

How are you doing with the, Uh...

That second look at the roy Cardinale case?

I'm actually just getting into It--

It's been a bit of a busy day--

But these are the x-rays here,

If you want to have a look.

They're up right here?

You can see

You can see

This kid had a couple of cranium Fractures

That are just nasty.

Oh, yeah, I see those.

Mm-hmm,

And what I didn't notice before

Was a couple of very loose rear Molars,

In addition to the missing front Teeth.

In addition to the missing front Teeth.

I don't know if you can tell, But I can.

Right in here? You're telling me This is something new

That wasn't in the initial...

That wasn't in the initial...

Yes, the obviously missing front Teeth,

That's from a frontal blow,

But the molars,

That could indicate a severe Enough blow

To cause a concussion,

To cause a concussion,

Because the teeth transfer the Blow,

And they resonate the blow

Into the brain.

That's a concussion.

Yeah, and I didn't draw Attention to that

In my initial write-up,

But if he did suffer a Concussion,

Then that could add some weight

To the homicide argument.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay, this is pretty good.

I was going to send this over to The chief.

You want to have a look at it First?

Well, sure I do, but...

I'd love you to be able to maybe Find

Something else you can do,

Another procedure,

Until you send this over to Bill.

But it's unlikely she's going to Respond.

You know who brought her in?

Someone from the ministry of Health,

I believe.

When she first came in,

Did you have much contact with Her?

Well, there aren't too many of Us,

So I got to know her a little, Yeah.

How bad was her dementia?

I mean, was she coherent about Her life at all?

"A little girl's crying, a Little girl's crying,

Somebody help her, somebody help Her," like that.

She's a few years your senior.

Yeah, I was 20 and she was 30 When we got together.

Yeah, I was 20 and she was 30 When we got together.

So you want to explain to me

How you figure this is still Your house?

Well, I paid for it,

That's how.

When I left, I told my wife

She could live there as long as She was alive,

She could live there as long as She was alive,

And anyway, when I'd get through Town here,

I'd drive by, and I'd never Stop, just look,

And that's how I found out she Was in a home,

So I decided to stay and sell The place.

So you're fixing it up to sell It?

So you're fixing it up to sell It?

Yeah, redoing the bathroom.

You want to tell us about the Baby you found in there?

Yeah, that was a shock.

Yeah, that was a shock.

I suspected something like that A long time ago.

You suspected something? What do You mean by that?

You suspected something? What do You mean by that?

Well, I used to work the mines Up in smithers,

And so I was gone a lot, and...

I don't think she was even my Daughter.

You think your wife had the Child by someone else?

Yeah, well, I thought something Was going on,

Yeah, well, I thought something Was going on,

And one time, I came back Unexpected,

And I thought she was a little Heavy,

So I asked her about it,

And she just said she was Putting on weight.

So you're suggesting that she Had the baby by someone else

So you're suggesting that she Had the baby by someone else

- while you were out of town, Working on the mines? - yeah.

What do you think happened in There?

Well, I think maybe she got Scared

Of what might happen when I Found out,

And she decided after she had The baby she didn't want it.

You think your wife was capable Of something like that?

I do now.

I do now.

Do you think that your wife...

Let the baby die or killed her?

I think that's probably what Happened.

I think that's probably what Happened.

Why did you throw the baby out In the garbage, then?

I figured if I reported the Child dead,

Then maybe you might think I had Something to do with it,

And donna wouldn't have been Able to tell the truth.

Is this the truth, what you're Telling us now?

- yes, it is. - you realize that Your wife

- yes, it is. - you realize that Your wife

- can't confirm or deny any of This. - I know.

- now you probably think I did It. - yeah, well, you can see

How we would think something Like that.

Yeah, you're up there, you find Out she's having an affair,

You're working in the mine to Pay for the house,

She's fooling around behind your Back,

Then she tries to tell you that This is your child?

I don't know, but yeah, that'd Be pretty hard to take.

I don't know, but yeah, that'd Be pretty hard to take.

Maybe that was too much for you.

I didn't kill the baby.

I only found out about it when I Opened that wall there.

I only found out about it when I Opened that wall there.

Okay, let's get you back in the Car.

You can come with us and we can Get this straightened out.

You can come with us and we can Get this straightened out.

You want to meet us downtown?

Does it ever stop with you?

Does what ever stop with me?

Does what ever stop with me?

The roy cardinale case.

What, are we seeing another Alleged conspiracy here?

I think we are.

Last year, it was that darcy...

Last year, it was that darcy...

The aboriginal woman from the Needle exchange.

- darcy charlie? - yes.

Well, the point is, we've been Down this road before,

And it came to a dead end.

I don't know if I would Characterize it

In those words exactly... Watch Your hand.

The autopsy on roy cardinale Clearly states

- the cause of death was blood Loss. - agreed.

The man was hit by a train--

Agreed, but prior to being hit By the train,

He was beaten up by two, three, Maybe four cops.

He was beaten up by two, three, Maybe four cops.

Well, that is a beating, not a Homicide.

I think the whole point here

Is that the cops should not be Investigating themselves, and They are.

And who would you suggest, if Not people who are trained

- in this kind of investigation? - an independent committee?

Yes, like they have in toronto, I suppose.

Like they have in all sorts of Places, including toronto.

Well, if you want my point of View,

Well, if you want my point of View,

It's not going all that well in Toronto.

It hasn't made cases like this Any easier--

I didn't think the point was to Make things easier.

I thought the point was to Reveal

I thought the point was to Reveal

The truth and circumstance.

Last year it was darcy charlie,

This year it's roy cardinale.

A pattern's emerging.

Yeah, the police close ranks

When their own are involved.

The pattern I'm referring to is Your tendency

To conflate separate incidents Into conspiracy theories.

To conflate separate incidents Into conspiracy theories.

Every idiot knows

Pattern breaks down into Incident.

Which remains theoretical

Which remains theoretical

Until empirically proven, and That's my point.

These things remain in limbo, Unresolved, using up valuable Resources,

These things remain in limbo, Unresolved, using up valuable Resources,

- while you could be cleaning up Other work on your desk. - hang On a minute.

Before we get into my clearance Rate,

Let's just look at the Ramifications of this police Behavior.

You don't think there's a loss Of public confidence in the Police force?

Oh, well, that's new to me. Now There's a loss of public Confidence.

Yeah. The pig farm?

The missing women fiasco's Hanging over our head

The missing women fiasco's Hanging over our head

Like a black and dark Thundercloud.

You don't think it is? You don't Think that leads

To lack of public confidence?

You see? Look! You just Conflate everything.

Ai-ai-ai-ai-ai.

I'm going to be honest with you, Dominic,

Because I think all of this Comes from the fact that you Failed

To secure the job as chief of Police.

To secure the job as chief of Police.

Oh, come on, give me a damn Break, bob.

That's got zero to do with this. Zero.

Well, for once, we agree.

We agree on that,

Because this has zero to do

With your job as coroner for This city.

Hang on a minute, okay? Let's Just...

Can you give me the coroner's Act?

Hey, hey! That is not necessary!

Do not use this histrionic with Me. It won't work.

- I just want to refresh-- - Please!

Use that on someone who's Unfamiliar

With your mode of bloody Argument!

Prevention of death.

Prevention of death.

Public assessment of fact.

That's our job. Isn't that our Job?

Tell me if I'm wrong.

You can make recommendations--

You can make recommendations--

By all means, make Recommendations--

But internal police Investigation

Is not included in our mandate.

No thanks, helen. Thank you.

No thanks, helen. Thank you.

Okay, I've got a recommendation.

Let's not roll over on this, Given the fact

- that it's a new police Administration in office. - hold On a second.

- that it's a new police Administration in office. - hold On a second.

Is this or is it not about the New police chief?

Because now I am very confused!

All right, okay, look--

All right, okay, look--

Thank you, no, helen. Thank you.

Look, the guy rides into office

Because he solicits the rank and File

By telling them they're going to Have their hands free

To do police work,

And he cons the police board Into thinking

They'll get a good night's Sleep,

And now he's got a chance to Send out a message.

Finally, we're going to see him Delivering on his promises,

And I'm concerned about what Kind of a damn message this is

And I'm concerned about what Kind of a damn message this is

That he's sending out.

But meanwhile, you've been Stepping willy-nilly

Outside the boundaries of this Office.

Outside the boundaries of this Office.

Last week, it was the sailors' Mutiny,

This week, it's a police Investigation.

How many enemies do you want to Make, dominic?

This is why you didn't get the Job as police chief.

Don't you get it?

Don't you get it?

Can't you read the signs here, Man?

I'm not going to say anything More, okay?

That's it, I'm going to walk out Of your office.

That's it, I'm going to walk out Of your office.

I'm biting my damn tongue.

I'm walking out of your office.

I just want to ask you, just to Think about it, okay?

Just to think about what kind of Damn message

This is sending out to the World.

That's it, I'm done.
