Whoa, what's going on?
Hold on, hold on.

Okay, what's going on?
I haven't had a chance
To look at him.

- you're heading out, huh?
- we got another call.

- we got another call.
- so?

We already had the guy
On the gurney when he died.

You want to take
A look at him?

Not out here in the middle
Of the street, I sure don't.
That's not an option.

What do you want us to do?
We didn't want to dump him
Back on the bed.

That'd have been an option.
Let's put him in the back
Of the ambulance.

I'll take a look at him
Back in there, okay?

You understand
What happened, right?

We were getting ready
To take him to the hospital
When he died.

Put him in the back
Of the ambulance.
I'll be right with you.

- we got another call.
- I got you. I'm waiting
For 'em.

- what's happening here?
Were you at the scene?
- yes, sir, I was.

There was a couple
Of witnesses. They were
Shooting up with him,

But they didn't
Know what to do when
He wouldn't respond.

- where are the witnesses?
- upstairs. My partner's
Looking after them.

Best news I've had
All night-- get your
Partner to stay up there,

- I'll be right with you
As soon as I--
- all right.

Could you get the lights
Off of my car?

- okay, thanks. Sorry, eh.
- hey, no problem.

Hey, rick, ricky, ricky,
Ricky, rick, rick.

Come on, answer.

Wake up!

Rick, it's sue.

It's susan.

I'm inside.
Your door was open.

Rick, wake up!

That's kevin, and that's anne.

- this is the coroner.
- how you doing?

I understand
That you two
Were shooting up

With the victim
Earlier today,
Right?

Do you know
What you were shooting,
Where you got it?

It's heroin.
Bought it on the street,
Pigeon park.

Which dealer?
I'm not a cop. I've got
To know which dealer it is

In case it was bad dope.
Then I can get it
Off there, eh.

I don't know nothing.

Is she with us?
Were these people
Checked by paramedics?

No, I don't think they did.

Wait, were you using
The same needle, the same
Product?

What's your name
Again?

Kevin.

And the victim's name,
What was the victim's name?

Uh...

I don't know,
I don't know.

You don't know...

But you were using the same
Product and the same needle,
Am I right?

- yeah, yeah, we did.
- [ pager beeping ]

Okay, well, it's looking
Like a hospital trip
For these two, okay?

I want to see if you get
The same paramedics
Back here.

Take them down to the hospital
And get them checked over.

I can't stay.
Can you stay until
That happens?

Oh, yeah.

Brilliant, okay.
I'll be in touch.

Thanks, guys.

- hey.
- hey.

You found me.

Yeah, sorry, I slept in.

It's all right.

I actually had a nightmare
In the middle of the night,

Got up for an hour
Just to deal with it.

What was it about?

Da vinci was police chief,

And there was a sudden
Upturn in drug overdoses,

And the city-- oh, man--

The streets were literally
Full of dead people.

It was like the plague.
It was freaky.

You know, maybe it's because
He's italian--

I associate the plague
With italy, da vinci...

Could be.
So how did it end?

So he asked me to help him
Move a body out of the way

So he could show me something,
And the arm came right off.

Woke up screaming.

What a night.

Bummer.

- how about you?
- oh, I slept like a rock.

You're doing a lot
Better than you were
Earlier this year.

Yeah, it's been nice
Waking up down there...

Salt in the nose,
Rain on the roof.
It's always a good day.

Hmm.

- this is it, huh?
- this is it.

- the injection site?
- that's it.

Handy
For the dealers.

They just line up
Down the block and wait
For customers.

Yeah, well, looks like
That's what they're
Doing right now.

You guys just walked
Right through it.

You guys heard anything
About any bad dope
Out in the street?

Nothing more than usual.

What does that mean?
Have you or not?

No, I haven't heard
A lot.

Well, if you do, let me know.
I've got to be in the loop.

Yeah, no problem, yeah.

You know
What I have heard?

Everywhere they set up
Safe injection sites,

They attract more addicts
From everywhere around.

Yeah, I've heard that, too.
I just haven't seen any
Good proof on that.

I think something like this
Is going to get people all
Nervous, all stirred up.

Other people can roll with it.
It's an experiment. We've got
To wait and see.

Good luck with it.
I hope it's worth
All the money.

Boy, me too.
Maybe we can get more
Uniforms out on the street

With all the money
We save on health care
With this program, eh?

Here's the guy
To take it up with
Right here.

Nice-- nice job.
It's pretty close.

- nice to see you.
- how you doing?

- good to see you.
- you look great.

- thanks.
- thank you.

A couple of our supporters
There?

Yeah, I think that's kind
Of what they said, yeah.

Anyway, you want to go
And have breakfast up here,

Or do you want to go
Down to my place,
Down at vic's?

- vic's.
- down to vic's.
Okay with you?

- it's good for me.
- okay.

So what do you want to hear?
You want to hear
The latest

From our friends south
Of the border, or what
The tourism board has to day?

Oh, boy. Let me guess.
They're not exactly
Thrilled

About the kind of press
We've been receiving.
Am I right?

Well, let's just say
They'd like it even better

If every time
The safe injection site
Was mentioned,

It was also mentioned
That we still have
A beautiful city.

Well, we're bound to hear
Stuff like that

For the next couple,
Three years, anyway.

I know you're probably
Not too big on this idea,

But it'd be good to find
Some counter spin stories

And start putting those
Out in the press.

You mean, "That sort
Of tragedy that could have
Been prevented

If something like this
Had existed

"Before my kid got gripped
By the evil heroin," that
Kind of thing there?

That's right.

- I'm losing my appetite.
- oh, gosh.

I hate it
When I see that angle

Portrayed
In the newspaper,
Pertaining to this.

It makes the whole thing
Feel so desperate.

Well, what can I say?
People identify with other
People's stories.

It'd really help if you
Came up with a couple
Of names.

Okay, let me work on it.
What else?

You want to hear
What they're saying
In washington about the site?

Do I?

"State-sponsored suicide."
I think that was the phrase.

State-sponsored suicide...

State-sponsored suicide--
I'm reading between
The lines,

I'm hearing
They're reacting
To state sponsors.

Is that the case?
Is the state in?

Well, let's see, let's see,
The feds are in,

The province is in,
And we're in, so...

We're in? Everybody's in?
We have all the money?

Enough for a year.

A full year now,
A real year?

- yeah.
- oh, that's great.

That's awesome.
Wow.

Okay, breakfast
Is on me.

We've got top floor
On the right here.

Young lady here says

She went up
To visit a friend
And found him.

I have her
In the cruiser.

Hello, there.

- it's your friend upstairs?
- yeah, uh-huh.

- you want to tell us
About how you found him?
- do you know angela?

She's a homicide detective.
You know her?

Yeah, sure,
I know her.

Can you call her
And tell her

That sue is here
And rick is dead?

Yeah, I can do that.

Is there anything
That you can tell me?

No, I just came by
For a visit, and his door
Was open.

And when was that?

That was this morning,
A couple of hours ago.

Did you touch anything
In the apartment?

I might have.
I sat on the bed
And tried to wake him up.

Oh, gee, there he is.
Please don't let him
See me.

Take her around the corner.
Be discreet.

Okay.

Hey, wait up.

Go on up, rose.

Detective curtis, vice.
What's-- what's going on?

We're just going in
To take a look. What's
Your interest?

I've got an informant
Who lives upstairs.
Mind if I walk with you?

Yeah, I mind.

You can wait down here,

But we want to take
Our little walk-through first.

What's the problem?

There's no problem.

We just want
To take a look ourselves.

- okay?
- okay, fine.

Excuse me.

- what's with him?
- don't-- don't do that.

Don't do that.
Okay, don't touch me.

I'm sorry, sir,
I'm under instructions.

There's a young lady
Named sue, in a cruiser,
Asking for you.

She's around the corner.
She found the body.

Okay.
Around the corner?

Yeah, she saw that guy
There and she freaked
Right out.

- okay, I'm going
To go find her.
- yeah.

You want to take
A walk with us
And fill us in?

Yeah, I'll be in in a sec.
I'm just going to check in
On him.

[ mick ] :
Hey, brian.

- hey, mick.
- what's going on here?

-- if I know, man.
I've got... I think
My guy's up there.

They're shutting me out.
What's with the attitude?

He's just an old warhorse,
That's all.

So this guy upstairs,
He's what to you?

He's an informant,
Small-time dealer.

Mm-hmm. Okay.
Any insights you could share?

Yeah, I've got some insights.

He's a... He's a bit
Of a rip-off artist...

He probably tried it
With the wrong people.

They're going to want
To know that.

Yeah, they're going
To want to know.

You saw, man, right?
I'm trying to help him
Out here,

And the guy's
All... In my face.

Yeah, that's just
Old school, right? You know
What that's about.

So who's this guy?

His name's rick.
He's got a girlfriend,
Brenda.

She's -- up
With the councilman,

A guy by the name
Of jack pierce.

This guy pierce,
He comes to me a while
Back, right,

Says that this guy rick,
He's putting the squeeze
On the girlfriend,

Can I help him out,
Check out his record.

Give me a sec here,
I just want to...

I should be up there.
This is-- this is
Ridiculous.

Get some of this down here.

Is she in there?

[ knocks ]

[ car door opens ]

- hey.
- hey.

You all right?

I think so, yeah.

You found him this morning?

- uh-huh.
- that's rough.

So what happened? Did you
Touch him? Did you touch
The body at all?

No, I just sat on the bed,
And I realized he was dead,

And I just ran
And got out of there.

Okay,
Why don't you stay
In the car, lie down.

I have to go upstairs
And take a look.

Uh... It wasn't this morning
That I found him.

It was last night,
About 11:00, 11:30.

I came by to score something,
And that's when I found him.

Oh, gee.

You told the officer
It was this morning.

I was scared.

Then I realized
Probably nobody found him,

So I came back and called
From the corner store.

Okay.

Stay put. Lie down.

I'll be back in a while
To talk to you.

Hey, sorry you had
To find him like that.

Keep an eye on her.

Bob.

- oh, hey, dominic,
Got a minute?
- for you, always.

So your interview
With the police board
Must be imminent.

It's imminent.
It's next week, I think.

Have you considered
What might happen

Given the remote possibility
That you actually get the job?

The remote possibility,
I've considered it, yeah.

Well, it's good to have
A contingency plan.

So if you do become
The next chief of police
Of our fair city,

What can we expect?

Probably a sudden
Rash of cardiac arrests
The morning it's announced,

Followed by an exodus
To ontario.

I think it'll be
Business as usual
For a while.

And who do I get
To replace you in your
Present capacity?

I gave you a list.
You don't like anybody
On there?

I don't know
Anybody on the list,

And besides, I venture
To say you're a hard act
To follow.

Thank you. There's no point
In starting a eulogy.
I haven't left yet.

But we really should discuss
Who's going to fill
Your shoes, okay?

- okay.
- what's happening
With darcy charlie?

You know I lost
That witness in that accident
In the alley there.

- behind the dumpster, right?
- behind the dumpster,

I got a call last week.
I might have another witness.

- so the saga
Continues, then.
- the saga continues.

What's he saying?

He's saying he's been holed up
For a few days with the flu
At a girlfriend's place.

I think we're going to have
To weasel out of him

Who exactly that is,
And we'll check it out.

I'm sure
He's got a theory
Of what happened.

Oh, yeah,
Yeah, yeah.

Remember
Councilman jack?

Hmm, threw a little mud
His way, did he?

Threw a little mud his way,
Threw a little mud a lot
Of people's way,

Including sue there,
Your friend.

- what?
- yeah, yeah.

Let's step
Inside, though.

I feel like he can read
My lips through the back
Of my head here.

- thanks.
- thanks.

So what's brian saying
About me?

He's saying that you were
Partying with rick last night
In gastown.

A few different people
Saw you.

He's lying.
You don't believe him,
Do you?

He's promoting
A couple of different
Scenarios

About who might've killed
Rick. You're one of them.

I didn't do anything.

All I did
Was find him like that.

Well, it's just a heads-up.

You need to retrace
Your steps last night
Before you went to rick's,

Find somebody
Who's going to remember you.

Well, I had a regular john
Last night,

But I don't think
He's going to back me.

Well, I'll talk to him
If you want.

I'm just letting you know
That brian might try
To push this

To where we can't protect you.
You understand?

I hear you.

Okay.

You know how
To reach us, right?

Call me anytime,
Okay?

Yeah, I'll be fine.

Thanks for the ride.

[ sighs ]

Jack pierce.

[ annoyed sigh ]

Can we talk to you
For a minute?

It's getting
Pretty late.

- can it wait?
- not really.

Why don't we get in the car
And go for a ride?
It won't take long.

A ride.

Can you give me a hint
What this is about?

Yeah, it's about a friend
Of your girlfriend's.

He was murdered
Last night.

Rick?

Rick?

Yeah. Yeah, come on,
Let's go.

[pierce ]:
I never meant anything by it.

I just... I asked him,

Could he...
Look up his records

And just see
How many charges rick had,

You know,
Just...How bad a guy
He was, you know?

I guess I was really
Checking out brenda's past.

I knew they had a relationship.

I was...

I was jealous,

Jealous and angry
That brian was trying

To put the squeeze on me
With the...

Framing me
With the cocaine thing,

And I...

I just did something
Really stupid.

I asked him...

I asked him,
Could he just make rick
Go away.

What did you mean by that?

I meant go away,
Back to ontario,

Or wherever the hell
He came from, that's
What I meant.

You know what I think?

I think
You should get yourself
A lawyer

And tell him what you told us.

Tomorrow,
We'll have another
Conversation.

[ pierce ]: brenda's going
To be pretty shook up
That he's dead.

I'm already feeling jealous,

Because she's going to cry
About him.

The poor guy's dead,
And I'm still jealous.

[ mick ]:
That's pretty low.

Weren't we just here?

Yep, last night.

Just last night?

Okay, I'm not crazy,
Then, I guess.

[ chuckles ]

Wait a minute,
I know these two.

These are the two
From the other night.
This is kevin and anne.

- yeah, that's them.
- I thought I sent them
To the hospital. Didn't I?

You told us to stick around
Till the paramedics
Came to take them.

Yeah, and you told me
The paramedics came.

Well, no, I mean,
The paramedics did come,

And then we got a call,
So we had to leave.

- oh, so you didn't actually
See them take them.
- no, sorry.

This is terrible.

Here.

- you got any evidence
Bags with you?
- yeah.

Let's get the rest
Of what's in there
Tested.

Sure.

Is that a flap there?

Yeah, there's one down there.
There's a flap.

We don't know
If it's the right one,
Though.

There's two here.

- well, let's just test
Both of them.
- all right.

- you've got it?
- sure.

Do you know the names
Of those two paramedics
That were here?

I can find out
Pretty quick.

Okay, see if we can
Get them over here.

I wouldn't mind
Talking to them.

Sure.

Remember how they were saying--
This guy was saying

He didn't know
Who sold him his dope?

Yeah, I remember.

I'd love to know
Who sold him his dope.

We looked them over.
They were okay.

Their vitals were good.
They were just coming off
Their dope.

That wasn't
What I asked you.

I asked you to take them
To the hospital.

I didn't ask you
To check them over.

We had another call,
A vehicle accident on the
Burrard street bridge.

The driver went through
The windshield. It was
A real mess over there.

But that's right
On the way to st. Paul's.

You could have come,
Taken your accident victim
To the hospital,

Come back here and dealt
With what I asked you to do,
Couldn't you?

What were we supposed to do?
They refused to go
To the hospital.

We couldn't force them to go.

- okay, okay, they resisted?
- yeah.

That's a perfectly
Reasonable explanation.
I'm satisfied.

The hospital is the last
Place they wanted to go.

Can we start there next time.
That's all I wanted.

- okay.
- sorry about them.

I know, it's terrible.
I'm sorry.

Hey, I think
I might have a line on who
Was selling them the dope.

Oh, that's good news.

Okay, let's go.

I got the same story
You did.

Brian had a bad flu,
Holed up with some girl
Named wendy.

She's a clerk in traffic.
I got her number
If you need it.

Oh, good.
Yeah, give it to me.

We'll check her out
On the q.T., thanks.

So how's he doing?

What's his mood like
Lately?

Down, depressed, quiet.

Not his usual effervescent,
Ugly son-of-a- -- self.

So what's going on
With this investigation
Into brian,

This undercover thing?

Is that pretty much ground
To a halt, or what?

What with rick being dead,
Yeah.

Right.

Well, I'm assuming
That you still need me
To ride with him,

Let you know
What he's up to.

Yeah, we're kind
Of counting on that.
Is that a problem for you?

Well, you're going
To owe me, that's all
I can say.

You have no idea
What it's like riding
With this guy every day.

I can imagine.

We appreciate it.

I'll be in touch.

All right,
See you tomorrow.
Thanks.

Thanks.

Councilman?

Yeah, councilman.

Kevin and anne...
It's kevin and anne.

I just want to know,
Do you know who sold them
Their dope?

Yeah.

Will you tell me?

I'm not a cop.

Some guy in pigeon park,
New guy.

I hadn't seen him
Around before.

He's been there
Every day for a week now.

Oh, okay.

Did you get your dope
From him, too?

No, I've got
My regular connection.

Would you maybe take a walk
With me and you could
Point him out to me?

- that's not going to make--
- I'm not looking to bust
This guy.

I want him to step
On his dope. That's all
I'm looking for here.

He's obviously got
Some bad dope, or he's
Mixing up his packages.

He's got coke going out
For heroin, heroin--

I don't know what he's doing,
But it's got to stop.
People are dying here.

He's not going to be there now
Anyways. I saw him take off
A while ago.

What about tomorrow?
Would you go with me tomorrow?

No one's going to see you.
Just point him out and go.

- yeah.
- yeah?

Yeah.

Great, what room
Are you in?

- room 401.
- 401?

Don't knock too early.

- okay. Hey, thanks.
- yeah.

No, I mean it.

Hey, hold up!
Excuse me!

Hey, excuse me.

Gee, you don't hear me
Yelling for you there?

Yeah, what?

What is the matter
With you?

You know, you should be
Careful, jumping in front
Of me like that.

I've got big feet.
I could have stepped on you.

I am trying to help you
With your homicide, okay?

I have some information
For you.

Yeah? Well, I don't have
To kiss your -- for it,
Do I?

Actually, yes.
Why don't you just do that?
Why don't you kiss my --?

- bend over
And drop your drawers.
- okay, whoa.

What is it?
What do you got?
Let's hear it.

The girl who found rick, sue,
She's a hooker.

You know that, right?
She's got a big habit.

Her and rick are tight,
Really tight.

I heard they were out partying
The night he got killed.

I thought it might be
Something you might want
To know.

Thanks, we'll pass it on
To angie and mick.

No, no, it's not gonna work.
I already spoke to angie's
Partner.

I gave him the whole story,
They're not going to do
Anything about it.

- really? Why?
- because she's angie's
Snitch.

What is the matter with you?
You don't reveal that.

You don't give up
Somebody's snitch--

Angie has a reason
Not to look too close at sue.

She's going to protect her,
As we all would.

Anything else?

I'm trying to
Help you out here.

I don't understand
The attitude, I really don't.

Rick was a good source for me.
I'm going to miss him.

Hi.

Look what I got.

- oh, great, thank you.
- bagels...

- cappuccino.
- oh, latte.

- okay, I'll have it.
- no, it's okay.

- um...
- I've got to go.

Okay, your meeting
With the mayor has been
Moved to tomorrow...

- tomorrow?
- ...At his office for lunch.

Lunch? No, no.
You know what he favors,

Is those little sandwiches
With the crust cut off.

And willa edwards called
Centerfrom the native .

She may have a witness
For you for the darcy
Charlie thing.

She does? That's great news.
Maybe it's going to be a good
Day after all, eh?

She said to call her
As soon as you get in,
So that's it for now.

Okay, I'll call her
On my cell-- hey, maria,
Maria,

Did you get that syringe
And that flap I left you
Last night?

You didn't get--
I left you a note.
You didn't get my note?

Oh, I couldn't read it.

I have it here.
I was going to call you.

Why can't you read that?
No problem.

- well--
- look at that.

"Analysis,"
"Syringe."

Yeah, okay,
This must be an "A" here,

And I guess
That must be a "Y."

Yes, well..

Well, there might be some
Residue we can pull off
The syringe,

But the flap looks
Like it was licked clean.

Well, just do
What you can, I guess.

Does it have anything to do
With the three o.D.S
We've got?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah,
That reminds me.

Can you do some blood work
On those as well?

I've got
This weird feeling
About this one.

You want to foot the bill
For full autopsies
Or just the screen?

- just the drug screen.
- what time did you drop
This off, anyway?

- I left at 1:00 last night.
- it wasn't that bad,
2:00, 2:30.

Did you get any sleep at all?

The usual,
Like that three hours,

And then I wake up,
And I wondered,

"Do I feel okay?
Did I sleep at all?
Should I stay up now?"

I don't even know anymore,
It's like a dilemma,

And I walk around all day,
Going, "How do I feel?

Do I feel good,
Or do I feel tired?"
And I don't even know.

Sounds like
My sleeping habits.

Yeah?

I'll get this over
To the lab.

Tell them to put
A rush on it.

I'll tell them
You said that and
Listen to them laugh.

Dominic,
Got a minute?

I already gave you one
Minute, so this is going
To have to be a second minute.

Right. Uh...
Constable klochko,
Remember him?

Oh, yeah,
I remember him.

He's number two or three
On my all-time son-of-a---
List.

That's the guy who said
I messed up that o.D.

A couple of months back,
Remember him?

Then I find out he's
A friend of bill jacobs.

Well, you'll be happy
To know that he's recanting.

He's now saying
You didn't mess up
The debra moyer o.D.,

That he was mistaken.

He's pulling the complaint?

Yeah, he phoned me up
At home this morning,
Woke me up.

- how he got
My number I have no idea.
- why is he doing that?

- I don't know.
I thought you could tell me.
- I don't know, it's bizarre.

He's putting that
Out on the street,
That sue's my informant?

That's what he told us.

Unbelievable.

Yeah, so tell me more
About this brian.

What else do you know
About him?

Yeah, okay, well,
It goes back a ways
With him.

I'm pretty sure
He's been involved

In several murders
Of his own informants.

We had a sting set up
That involved rick,

Which we thought could nail
Brian, or at least take him
Off the street.

Now that rick's dead,
We've got to find
A new strategy.

We've got one angle
We're still working.

Brian's been putting
The squeeze on a councilman
Named jack pierce.

We figure, you know,
Pierce might be a way
Back into this.

I know pierce.
Da vinci had me look
Into his girlfriend.

She's a stripper, ed
To work at the number five.

Her name's brenda.

Jack's talking
To his lawyer today.

We're hoping
That he'll testify

If we can still put together
Something on brian.

Maybe you should talk
To his girlfriend.

If anybody can get pierce
To do anything, it's her.

We've got to talk to her anyway
About rick, so...

Okay.

Thanks for the heads-up
About sue. I appreciate it.

Yeah, no problem.

Hey, I've got
To tell you guys...

Guys like this brian,
You know,

If you can't get him
One way, there's
Another way--

You might have to play
On his side of the street
For a while.

You know
What I'm saying?

Yeah, yeah, I've thought
About going down that road
A few times.

See you.

What's the witness's name?

- john samuels.
- okay.

He was there that night,
Across the street.

He saw the cops
Break up the needle exchange.

Did he see what happened
To darcy charlie,

Or did he just observe
The general melee there?

- no, he says he saw her.
- great.

The best I could do was
Get him to talk to you,

So you'll have
To do the rest.

- that's no problem.
- okay.

And that's him
Over there.

- this gentleman here?
- yeah.

Okay, I really appreciate
This. I can't tell you
How much.

I guess
I kind of owe you.

I've finally decided
To endorse your bid on chief.

- you did?
- mm-hmm.

Well,
I owe you twice.

You'll have
To get it together
Pretty quick,

Get a letter out there--
My meeting comes up in less
Than a week to have any impact.

- okay, I'll get it out
By the end of the day.
- that is so great.

I guess we'll have
To get together and
Have a meeting,

And you let me know
What it is you want, eh?

I've got to get
The job, though.

Well,
I'm counting on it.

Mr. Samuels,
This is the coroner.
I was telling you about him.

I'm getting something to eat.
Are you hungry?

- uh, no, I don't have
Much of an appetite.
- okay.

If you don't mind,
I wouldn't mind just walking
A little while.

I've got a meeting
To go to over there.

Sure, we'll walk.
Let's walk.

- thanks again.
I'll give you a call later.
- okay.

- see you.
- thanks again.

See you, yeah.

So what can you tell me
About what you saw

At the...
At the carnegie center

When the needle exchange
Was raided there?

I saw those cops
Hurt some people.
I saw them hurt darcy.

- you saw them hurt darcy?
- yeah.

Would you be willing
To testify to that
At an inquest?

- [ laughs ]
- what?

You must have
Some sorry -- case
If you're counting on me.

Well--

Look, I've got
No credibility.

I did eight years
For killing a guy,

And I've been a thief
And a drug addict
Ever since.

I got addicted
In prison.

That doesn't really hurt
Your credibility with me.

- are we going here?
- yeah.

Yeah, well, the reason
I'm talking to you
About it

Is I've got to make
A bunch of things right.

Anyway, that's what
They tell me if I'm going
To stay straight,

But trouble is the idea
Of testifying against cops
Scares me.

I've got stuff that
They caught me for,

And the stuff
That they never
Caught me for,

And I don't want them
Looking too hard at that.

Yeah, well, I'm afraid
There's not much I can offer
In the way of protection.

Yeah, well, I wouldn't want
Your protection if you could
Offer it.

It's the whole point
About sobriety, right?

Facing your demons?

Oh, yeah, yeah,
It is, yeah.

Look,
I'll tell you what.

I'll pray on it,
And I'll let you know.

Okay,
I'd appreciate that.

This is where
I've got my meeting.

- yeah.
- you want to come in?

You want to say
A prayer with me?

I'd like to, I've got
To go, though. I've got
Stuff I've got to do.

- okay, well,
Some other time, then, eh?
- okay.

Well, maybe--
Maybe a quick one.

It wouldn't hurt.

That's her right there,
Isn't it?

It looks like her.

Hello, brenda.
It's brenda, right?

- yeah.
- yeah?

I'm detective leary.

Detective kosmo
Of vancouver homicide.

I was wondering
If you just had a couple
Of minutes for us.

- is this about rick?
- yes, it is.

- you find out
Who killed him yet?
- not yet, we haven't, no.

We understand you and rick
Were pretty close.
Is that right?

He was my boyfriend, yeah.

That was how long ago?

- well, we never really
Completely broke up.
- really?

Because we understand now
You're living with jack pierce.
Is that right?

I was.

I just came by
To grab the rest of my stuff.

- I moved out last night.
- why is that?

No particular reason.

You know, we talked
To jack last night.

- did he tell you about that?
- yeah, he said.

Yeah,
He had an interesting story
About how brian curtis...

Well, you know brian curtis,
Vice cop.

Yeah, I know him.

How brian planted some dope
In jack's apartment

And put the squeeze
On the two of you,

And then jack asked him
To check up on rick for him,
You know,

"You scratch my back,
I'll scratch yours,"
Kind of thing?

Jack asked him to kill rick.
That's what happened.

We talked to him about it.
He says he didn't do that.

He's going to say that,
Isn't he?

We were hoping maybe
You could help us prove it
One way or another.

Why would I do that?

For rick.

I'll think about it.

Appreciate that.

[ screaming ]

What's your name?

Huh?

[ screaming ]

Go ahead, go ahead and scream.

[ engine struggling ]

[ tires screeching ]

I thought we had
An understanding.

I thought we had
A relationship.

You find rick's body,
And what do you do?

You call me first?

No, you don't
Call me first.

You call that angie, --,

And then I get there,
I get there,

And you run away.

You take off
Like you're scared of me.

You make me look bad
In front of everybody...

[ gasps ]

[ crying ]

And I don't like that.

Huh? I don't like that.
I don't like that
At all.

You -- me.

You're -- me.

You're telling everybody

That I was with rick
The night he died,
And I wasn't.

Hey, okay,
I can make that all go away.

The people who said
They saw you with rick--

I was mistaken.
They got it wrong.
I can give you an alibi.

I can give you whatever it is
That you need,

But why should I, huh?
Why should I do that?

What have you done
For me lately?

You killed rick.

You have a choice.

Now, it's either going to be
You, or it's going to be
The councilman,

But one of you is going
To go down for rick's murder,
You hear me?

Now, I can make that happen.
You know that I can make that
Happen,

So which is it going to be?
You or him?

Huh? Come on.
Let's hear it, let's hear it.
You or him?

What do you want me to do?

That's better, okay.

Okay, I'm going
To be calling you,

And when I do,
I want you to go back

Into the councilman's
Apartment--

It's okay, sweetheart,
It's okay.

You are going
To sneak in there,

You are going to hide
Something in there for me
And come back out,

And tell me where you hid it,
Just like before
With the dope.

You remember that?
Is that a yes or a no?

Yes.

All right, turn around.
Turn around.

[ keys jingling ]

See, everything's okay now.
Okay, there you go.

I'll be in touch...

In touch.
That's a good girl.

Okay.

Okay.

You know, three people
Have o.D.'d using that
Stuff you're selling.

Three people.
You don't care about that?

Whoa.

I've been using the same
Myself, okay,

And I haven't had
Any problems with it.
Yeah.

Well, then, maybe you're
Selling-- maybe you're
Selling...

Heroin to people
Who want coke.
Are you doing that?

No, man, it's just heroin.

Okay, well,
All I'm asking you to do

Is just to stop selling it
Just long enough

Until I can get it
Properly tested.

I can't do that, I can't.

Okay, then,
I have to have you
Arrested,

And I have to have you held
Until I can get it tested.

That takes one,
Maybe two weeks.

- who knows now?
- whoa, wait a sec'.

It's just your regular.
That's all you're going
To find out.

- stop selling it.
- I'm almost out, anyway.
I've just got a bit left.

Let me buy it off you.

You want to buy it from me?

I'll buy it.
How much altogether?

I'll give you what I've got
For 200 bucks.

200 bucks?

Okay, I'll need
A bank machine.

There's one over there.

Well, okay,
Let's go.

One stroke across his throat
Right to left.

That severed
His wind pipe and jugular
At the same time.

Would that take a lot
Of strength to do that?

No, not necessarily.

It would depend on
How sharp the weapon was,

And this looked
To be pretty sharp.

Could you tell
If he put up a struggle?

No, I don't think so.
There weren't any
Defensive wounds.

He had a lot of heroin
In his system,

So he could have been asleep
Or maybe unconscious
When it happened.

Oh, and there's
Evidence of semen
Around the mouth.

I'll leave that to you
To speculate on.

I'm having some
Dna tests run on it,

And that should
Tell us something.

Thank you.

Thank you,
Doctor.

Anytime.
Keep the change.

[ da vinci ]:
Are you ready to come forward
With any of this?

- I don't know.
- huh?

Well, I guess-
I guess I am.

I spoke to my lawyer.

It's... It's all
Unraveling.

It's just all
Unraveling.

Brenda left the apartment
The other night

- in tears.
- she took off?

Yeah, she accused me
Of telling brian to...

To kill rick.
It's a mess.

Boy.

I'm just
In a tailspin.

So I guess this is probably
A pretty bad time to ask you

To endorse my candidacy
For the chief of police, eh?

Yes, yes, it would.

I mean--

Under any other
Circumstances,
I'd be happy to do it,

But right now,
I'm afraid I'd sink you.

You've just been getting
Led around by your --

This whole last year,
Can't you see that?

Sure, you've done
Some pretty stupid things,

You've said
Some stupid things,

But, jack, honestly,
I don't believe--

I don't think
Many people believe
You're the type of man

That's going to get
Somebody killed.

Well, I appreciate
You saying that.

No.

I know what it's like
To get-- to be deluded,
Get manipulated.

You know, you're--
When you're at your
Most vulnerable state,

You fall for people's --,

Because you're lonely,
You're in love, whatever--

Hey, dominic.

Hey, claire, look at that.
I'm right ahead
Of time, right?

- I'll be right in.
- see you inside.

Okay, beautiful.

Prime example.

That's the mayor's assistant.

That's the mayor's
Assistant.

You having a thing with her?

Only in my mind,
Only in my mind,

But in reality,

Well...

I'd better get going,
Or I'll be late to yet
Another meeting

Where I've got to make
A complete idiot out of myself.

Hey, thanks for the words.

No problem.

Don't do anything stupid
On me, okay, jack?

Oh, I think
I've filled my quota.

If you want to get together
And kill a bottle of scotch,
Call me.

- I will.
- okay.

Well, listen, listen,

For what it's worth,

I think you're going
To make a...

A pretty good
Chief of police.
I mean that.

Well, thanks, jack,
But for what it's worth,

Your judgment
Has been a little off lately,

So I'm not going to listen
Too carefully.

You okay?

So...

If I said,
"Open it a week from today,"

You think you could have it
Up and going for then?

A week today?

Well, yeah,
I'm just waiting for money
At this point, really.

Yeah, well, like I said,
That's all in the works,
So...

So I could open it?

What about your search
For a parent,

Someone to do a "There
But for the grace of god"
For us?

Oh, you really want
To do that?

It doesn't sit that well
With me.

Well, we have to counter
The negative publicity.

I don't know.

I don't know if I want
To put somebody through that.

Well, it's not
Your choice, really.

- is it?
- what?

You ask them,
Then it becomes
Their choice.

Oh, yeah?

All right, well,
I'll keep my ears open.

Good.

Councilman.

I know, yes,
I was supposed to call you,

But I was speaking
With my lawyer,

And we're still considering
Our options.

Did we give you
The impression that
You had any options?

Because you don't, really.
You need to come forward
With what you told us,

And talking to your lawyer
Is not going to stop
That from happening.

- are you arresting me?
- are you willing
To cooperate?

I wouldn't have told you
About brian if I wasn't
Willing to do it.

I just-- my lawyer says
It's my word against his,

And you're going to need more
To prove extortion.

Okay, but the wrinkle
With that there, jack,

Is that right now,
You're a suspect
In a homicide.

You're aware
Of that, right?

Yeah. Yes.

Well, from what brian
Is saying,

You've got
A pretty good motive.

Yeah, I know, but he's lying.

Yeah, we think so, too,

And maybe
We've got a way

To prove that
One way or the other

And also get him
On the extortion.

Now, if we could do that,
Would you help?

I just want to make it
All right...

If I can.

Okay, so if we were
To ask you to wear
A wire on brian,

What would you say
To that?

A wire?

Yeah.

Jeez.

You know, we may not
Get brian.

Oh, don't say that.

Just telling you
What I'm thinking,
That's all.

We've got
The councilman's testimony.

Come on, that right there
Is going to help us out.

We believe he did that,
But we don't actually know
Brian's done anything.

Somebody had to see him
Going into rick's apartment

Rick is his snitch, though.
He's got every legitimate
Reason

To be having meetings
With him, right?

And when rick's dealing,

He's got people coming
In and out of there
All day, every day.

Any one of them
Could have had
The opportunity.

What happened
To the new optimistic mick
All of a sudden?

I'm just telling you
What I'm thinking.

We might not get him...

Right?

It's not the end of the world.

How can you say that?

I mean, he's like
His own little terror squad,

Killing people at will.

We think he's done maybe two,
Three of his informants now?

Yeah.

Well, he'll get his.

It might not be us who gets him,
But he'll get his.

You know what I hope?

I hope he steps out
In front of a bus,

And, bam,
Goodbye, son of a --.

That's what I hope.

Here's
The coroner now.

Mr. Da vinci,
This is joanne chavez,
Kevin's mother.

- mrs. Chavez.
- how do you do?

I just want to tell you
How sorry I am
For your loss.

Thank you...
Very much.

Um, I--I understand

You were concerned
About my kevin,

And...

What's this?

I mean, about how he died,

And I just wanted you
To see this.

Uh... This letter
Was delivered

By one of his street friends
Early this morning,

And I don't want you
To read it,

Or I don't want
To read it to you--

There are some personal
Things in it--

But I wanted you
To know what it said.

See, my kevin
And his girlfriend, anne,

They grew up together.

They went to grade school
And high school.

You know, we always thought
They'd get married, right?

Mm-hmm.

Anyway, they got
Into the dope.

I'm sure that's a story
You're-- you're
Familiar with.

They tried to quit,
But they could never seem
To do it,

And... I guess that's just
What this letter says,

That they... Just couldn't
Fight it anymore,

And they didn't want
To live like this,
And...

So my kevin decided
That he would...

Give a fatal...

A fatal dose of heroin
To anne and then
To himself,

And that's what he did,
I guess.

I thought
You should know.

Well, thanks...
Thanks for telling me.

Um, I'm just gathering up
Their things,

And I assume
That's all right.

Sorry?
Oh, yeah, sure, it's fine.

Okay, I'll let you know
When you can claim your...

Claim the bodies, too.

Thank you.

Mrs. Chavez...

I was just wondering...

Well...

- what you just told me...
- yes.

It was extremely moving...

And I appreciate that...

Pretty rough.

Yeah.
