All language subtitles for Hunter s03e02 Change Partners and Dance

You and Hunter are no longer partners.

Why? Tell me why.

You and Hunter have gotten too close.

So, uh, I guess we're going to be
partners?

Each a new partner. He was the target.
Can't you see that? I told you that's

crazy. 22 caliber pistol, silencer, one
shot in the head, one shot in the heart.

Rick, I cannot believe that you are
telling me that it is that easy just to

write us off.

Some things just are.

Separation will be permanent.

You want it right there?

Huh?

Yeah. Fine.

Have another.

I think you had enough.

What, are you worried about a lawsuit if
I drive home?

Don't worry.

I was going to call a friend anyway.

You should have gone ahead with the
plan. Instead, you doubled back behind

What is the matter? It didn't change
anything. We still got the guy.

That's not the point.

The point is why you doubled back behind
me.

I don't know what the big deal is.

The big deal is you cared more about me
than the plan. You are supposed to care

about your partner.

Hold on just a second, Leanne.

Look, we were very lucky last time. When
partners care too much about one

another, they put themselves in jeopardy
as well as the plan.

Hello. Hunter.

Dan Winslow.

Dan, you all right?

No.

I got to unload about something.

It's too drunk to drive.

I need to talk to someone.

It's got to be somebody I can trust.

Don't let me down.

Please.

Where are you?

Okay, I'll just stay there. I'll be
there in ten minutes, understand?

All right, look, so I was wrong. So I
made a mistake.

You don't have to jump all over me for
it. All you have to say is, please don't

do it again, and I won't.

Please don't do it again.

All right, I won't. Okay, eat all this
food.

I'm not going to eat all this food.

And by the time I get back, have this
all cleaned up. Everything.

Clean everything up.

Cooper Dan Winslet, see him? Ben, who's
asking?

This one out the back way.

Right before I got there, Wenzel walked
out the back, followed by a man who had

just entered the bar.

Does anybody there know this guy?

No.

And no two descriptions were alike.

First one of our guys to go this year.

First one in nine months.

Has all the ear markings of a
professional head like what?

22 caliber pistol silencer one shot in
the head one shot in the heart Wallet

watch was still on him when I found it
get on it.

I Guess I don't have to make any
motivational speeches on this one.

This is the vagabond chief Weiler

Three professional hits in the last 18
months with the same M .O., right down

leaving the murder weapon.

What are you two doing here so early?

Haven't left yet.

McCall had a hunch about the killing.
Seems as if they follow a pattern of

other killings in the area.

Yeah, the murderer gets close to his
victim. He pops him once in the head and

once in the heart with a .22. He
unscrews the silencer. All the weapons

fitted with silencers.

Yeah. He drops the weapon and he takes
off.

Well, a gun's a liability in case he
gets caught with it.

And he keeps the silence, sir, because
he can't buy one of those over the

counter. Do all the hits follow the same
pattern?

Yeah, the last one was four days ago. A
girl named Sarah Cameron stepped out of

her boyfriend's car in his underground
garage and... Only Sarah was clean as a

whistle. Is there an APB out on the
boyfriend?

Yeah.

Craig Borson. What about a connection
between Winslow and your other victims?

We don't have anything yet.

This is a real tail twister.

Have you talked to Winslow's partner
yet? He's due in this morning, first

Okay. Keep at it.

You ever thought about eating healthy?

You talk about healthy. This is very
healthy.

This is a completely well -balanced
meal.

That's not what I see.

No? What do you see?

I see a lot of calories.

And calories, I happen to love calories,
Hunter. They keep me alive, all right?

I see you got bacon there, sausage.

Bad combinations. I see a lot of
heartburn for you.

I happen to love everything that you
just said. And as far as heartburn, I

ever get heartburn.

It's not for my food.

Harry, good morning. Sit down.

Well, I'm sorry about Dan.

Yeah, it took me ten years to find a
partner that I could put up with in

Would you like some of McCall's food?

No, no thanks. I got no appetite.

Devane won't let me within shouting
distance of this investigation.

Too close to the eye, too emotional, all
that crap.

Look, I came down here to tell you guys
that I want to be involved.

If there's anything that I can do to
help, just let me know.

I'll do it on my free time.

Yeah, sure.

Well, do you think what happened to Dan
could have been a result of what you

were working on?

I've gone over and over. I don't think
so.

You know, I hate to say it, but if
Winslow was hit because of your

investigation, they could be coming
after you next.

I hope they try. I really do.

When's the last time you saw Dan alive?

We checked off duty at 6 o 'clock. He
called me from the bar. He was drunk. He

wanted to talk.

I was busy.

He didn't go?

Look, Hunter, every time Dan poured a
few cocktails, he always started in

Janet. Why did she divorce me? How can I
get her back? I gotta get her back. I

thought it was more the same old... I
don't think I'll ever

forgive myself.

It's, um...

It wasn't like we fell out of love. It
was more like we fell out of each

lives.

Nine years.

We grew in different directions, wanted
different things.

I guess I just got tired.

Tired of being a cop's wife.

It's not easy, you know?

Janice, did Dan mention anything that
was bothering him lately?

We haven't talked much since the
divorce.

But Dan always remembered my birthday
and our anniversary.

He'd send me little gifts and a note,
always asking me to come back to him.

Well, I wish I could be more help.

You've been a lot of help.

We're really sorry about Dan.

Rick. Just get whoever killed him,
please.

We will.

If you hear anything, you call us up.

Yeah, I will.

Yes, sir.

Are you sure it's Borson?

Great.

Hey, Hunter.

Hunter. Hey.

Hey.

What? No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no.
Keep him there until I get there, all

right? Yeah, and thank you.

Dee Dee, what Captain Devane wants to
see you.

Okay. Dee Dee.

Now.

Yeah.

I can't believe this. I can't believe
what you're telling me.

I'm sorry, but that's the way it is. You
and Hunter are no longer partners.

You'll both be assigned new ones.

Why? Tell me why.

I've been thinking about this since I
took over the division.

Conversation I had with Harry Trainor
about partnerships and friendships

it down. You and Hunter have gotten too
close.

That's not healthy in our profession.

Captain.

Send Korslan in.

Now, let's give it some time before we
start registering complaints, okay?

There will be no permanent partnerships
in this division, at least not while I'm

running it.

Any questions?

No, sir.

You two know each other?

No. Yes, sir.

Uh, yeah.

Causland, right? Yeah, we met at the
survival seminar last summer, right?

Right.

So, uh, I guess we're gonna be partners?

Yeah.

Yeah.

So let's go to work.

McCall, I'm gonna leave you two on the
Winslow case.

I got some other plans for Hunter.

Some coincidence, huh?

What, meeting here?

You know what I mean about her being
separated.

Oh, well.

I mean, 24 hours ago, we had this beef
about who backed up who where, and maybe

we're getting too close to each other,
and then today Devane just pulls a plug

on us just like that.

Rick.

This partner swap is just a coincidence,
isn't it? What else could it be?

Well, I mean, you didn't go to Devane
and say that you thought maybe...

We were getting too close and that you
needed some kind of a change.

Dee Dee, you are the best partner I've
ever had or ever will have.

I did not want this switch.

Okay, assuming that that is how it is.

What do we do?

What do we do? We do nothing. We've got
a captain with a very hard nose.

What are you saying? We don't do
anything.

You're not willing to fight for this?
You're willing just to call it quits?

it quits? What are you... Let me call it
quits.

Come on, you know Devane's reputation.
You know the way he works.

Ruth, I cannot believe that you are
telling me that it is that easy just to

write us off.

It's not that easy. Nothing is that
easy.

Some things just are.

It just is.

Look at me and swear to me that you did
not go and ask for this.

I did not go to Devane and ask for this.

Did not want this.

Well, you're not going to fight.

No.

In here, great.

Out there?

I've been spending a lot of time on why
Dan got dusted.

And? I checked every one of our files,
case by case.

Nothing. Well, maybe it's not a police
-related matter.

Yeah, I thought about that, but Dan got
along fine with it, Zach.

Didn't have any girlfriends or enemies.

In fact, the guy didn't have much life
outside the department.

I understand he went through a couple of
partners over the last couple of days.

You're not going to believe this. They
stuck me with Coslin.

The guy spent the last three years in
computers. Some green kid. Hadn't even

been to detective school yet.

Right off the bat, we're in this
situation with some crud.

And we get into a standoff with the guy,
right? We all got our weapons out. But

nobody fires a shot. Nobody.

Then this kid turns into mush right
after the guy surrenders.

Well, we've all done that, right?

Yeah, but did you ever puke in the
patrol car? The guy puked?

Next day, they give me Weber.

Dennis Weber?

Yeah. I swear, Hunter, I never saw a
flask or a bottle, but the guy was out

it from nine to five.

So I don't know. I figure I'll burn
through a dozen losers before I can find

partner I can put up with.

Well, read that, Harry.

No.

Yeah. Meet your new partner.

Devane did this this morning. He wants
me to make a detective out of you.

Wait a minute. That means you and McCall
got split up, right?

Well, Devane doesn't believe too much in
long -term partnership.

Well, okay, partner.

First thing you got to do is learn how
to handle your weapon.

You still use that? Yeah. Bill!

Well, you don't believe in shooting the
wound, do you?

If some sucker's dumb enough to pull a
weapon on me, I don't plan for him to

me.

Or my partner. Remember that.

I appreciate that.

Excuse me.

There are times when you have to take
someone alive, you know.

I mean, they may have some information
for you.

Or they may be a witness.

Or he just may owe you a lot of money.

But if it's very necessary... Just so
you don't think I'm

one -dimensional.

Well, now he's one -dimensional.

I want to see this McCall idiot.

Now, where is she? She has to go back to
school.

She has to learn she can't violate
people's rights. Now, where the hell is

You want to see me?

You want me to call?

Yeah. By what rule of law did you have
my client arrested?

We brought him in for questioning as a
material witness.

Material witness to what, for God's
sake?

His girlfriend was driving his car.

She took it back to his underground
garage parking area. She had short

hair cut very much like his. She had on
a jacket and jeans.

And when she stepped out of his car,
someone shot her once in the head and

in the heart with a silenced .22 pistol.

And we determined that that was a
professional hit gone wrong, and Mr.

over there doesn't seem to have any
comment on that.

Mr. Borson was on a plane to Reno. How
could he make a comment?

He was the target. Can't you see that? I
told you that's crazy.

I don't know. Somebody must have been at
the theater. I don't know. I only knew

her a couple of weeks.

Two days after that, the same killer
took down a police sergeant.

Now, I think that you know who that was,
Mr. Borson, and you'd be doing yourself

a big favor if you'd let us in on it. I
told her I don't know what the hell

she's talking about. All right, all
right.

I just found out you used to work over
Bartholomew's.

Yeah, I used to be the maitre d' at
Bartholomew's, so... Bartholomew's is a

known high roller sports book.

Oh, come on. With heavy action from
football to Formula One. You don't have

respond to that. If you're so damn sure
the place is dirty, why don't you close

it? We're talking about you, Mr. Borson,
and our mutual interest in who wants

you dead.

I already told you.

Nobody wants me dead, okay?

You're going to keep that attitude, huh?

Until he comes after you?

It is in your interest to help us.

Oh, get off it. Do I have to listen to
this?

Sergeant, unless you have further
information...

Well, the telephone's ringing off the
hook.

Everyone with a stripe on his sleeve has
got something to say about you two.

It's not funny, trainer.

A jewelry store full of hostages? You
two come on like Butch Cassidy and the

Sundance Kid. Wait a minute, Captain.
That psychopath in that store is about

kill everybody in it. We moved in like
clockwork and closed the clown out. I

swear this guy and I can read each
other's minds.

Let's get something straight.

There will be no more unauthorized
guerrilla operations.

You're not trained to defuse a hostage
situation. You leave that to the

negotiators and the SWAT teams.

And I want a full report from each of
you on my desk before you leave.

Sergeant, unless you have some
information to give me, this meeting is

You're making a stupid mistake by not
cooperating. We're trying to keep your

clients alive.

Hi.

Congratulations.

Oh, thank you.

Was that Borson?

Yeah. Did you tie him in with my
partner's death?

I think so.

Winslow was killed exactly the same way
Borson was supposed to be killed, only

they screwed up. What did they give you?

Stonewall. If I'd like to have a couple
minutes with him, I really would.

Yeah, we can take care of it, Harry.

Come on, Harry.

Hey, Coslin. Hold on to your lunch
today, pal.

40 James Enterprises?

Yeah, it's 40 there.

He ain't here just now, but if you want
to leave him a message... Listen, Kirby,

this is Sergeant McCall. I got to talk
to him. Do you know where he is?

I don't know, but for his special
friends, I can always find him. Okay, do

big favor. You find him, you tell him I
want to see him. I have a real important

job for him.

Okay. Thanks.

Do you have a reservation, sir?

Just tell Mr.

Bartholomew that Sporty James is here.

Sporty James?

Yeah, man, just go ahead and mention my
name, Sporty James, okay?

I know he's going to be happy to see me.
As a matter of fact, he might even give

you a raise.

Well, well, Sporty, been a long time.

I liked it that way.

Now, now, now, Mr.

Bartholomew, don't be so hateful, okay?

Just hear me out.

I've got some upper crust information.

Sort of the prime rib of gossip, you
might say.

Oh, and I'm not going to bargain with
you beforehand about the price, because

know that what I've got here is such hot
info, so you are bound to be

extraordinarily generous.

Not here. Not here.

Last table.

Last table?

You have two minutes, Sporty.

I suggest you omit the big words.

Like I said, you will not be
disappointed.

Now listen to this.

I was down to police headquarters today.

You know, just clearing up a little
misunderstanding.

When I look across the room, and who do
I see?

None other than Craig Borson himself.

Well, I know he used to work here,
right?

And word has it that, you know, he
didn't exactly quit because he was

mobile.

Am I right about that?

Well, okay, listen.

He had a lawyer with him, and he was
talking to two homicide detectives.

It's not for me, Sporty. It's nickel and
dime stuff.

Now, Mr. Bartholomew, Henry...

You see, I provide a commodity that has
value.

See, a highly specialized service that
you will surely need sometime in the

future. And I can't be running my
business on goodwill alone, you dig?

Thank you very much, Mr. Bartholomew.
You have made a very wise business

decision. And, you know, if you want to
talk... Further, you just call me, okay?

I don't know.

L -42, this is L -57.

We're rolling. Did he use the phone?

Negative, McCall. No calls in or out.

He is turning north on Whitworth. I'm
going to have to fall off.

Taking over.

All right, look, I'll catch up with you
just past Wilshire if it goes that far.

Anthony Scarlett.

There's a scalp I'd love to hang on my
belt.

Yeah, you and every other cop on the
block.

17 gambling and racketeering arrests.

No convictions.

These known associates read like a who's
who in West Coast gambling.

Yeah, I know.

Why don't you go get us a search
warrant?

Looking for what?

Wedding cards?

Oh, shoot.

Are you kidding?

He's not going to have anything
incriminating there. We're just going to

his cage and see what shakes loose,
Coslin.

I'm sorry.

Get any kind of search warrant in one.

Dan and I not only work together, we
party together. After the guy got

we took a trip to Hawaii that you
wouldn't have believed. They will be

movie about this one.

You like the islands, huh? Oh, yeah.

All right, man, I'm out of here. Thanks
for doing it. Hey, my pleasure. It's

customary for the senior member of the
firm to pick up the tab.

I'll get the name.

Okay. Hey, listen, Rick, tomorrow you
drive, okay?

Got it.

What the hell's going on?

I wanted to do this ever since you
called me to tell me that you blew it.

Now I find out it didn't just give me a
bummer. You scared Borson so damn bad

that you got his lawyer talking to the
cops, probably trying to cut a deal.

Just remember this. If I go down, you
land under me. Borson didn't give him

anything if he had you to heard from me.

Really? Then what's this broad name
McCall?

You know, served a warrant in my home
today?

It's a typical cop ploy to shake you up,
and it did.

I'm talking about cop boys.

What the hell happened to your partner?

He went soft. Finally, he develops a
conscience because we blew away Borson's

girlfriend by mistake.

I had to take him out. He would have
rolled over. Don't you see?

And you whack out a cop just like that.

I was covering your butt and mine, too.

Listen, my friend, you both got one foot
in the gas chamber because you turned

out to be a screw -up.

I'll take care of Borson. You do that,
and you get it right this time.

You got 36 hours.

Dot com.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute. You just
go walk into a bowling alley and blow a

guy away.

These things take time. You've got to
plan them. You've had the time. I don't

care how you do it. Just do it.

36 hours.

You could say hello to your dead partner
for me.

Good morning.

Morning.

Nut.

No, thanks.

Good for your feet.

Thanks, no.

You know, I don't think we'll ever get
used to walking by this desk.

Know what you mean.

Coslin, you know, Trina has a tendency
to push a little bit. I wouldn't let

bother her.

I don't.

I wasn't scared that night.

I had stomach flu.

Sergeant McCall, can I have a word with
you?

I'm looking for Mr. Borson. You haven't
found another unconstitutional way to

lock him up, have you? Oh, get off it,
Counselor. We're trying to keep your

client alive.

Obviously, neither of us appreciate your
interest. Are you saying that you don't

know where he is? No, I don't know where
he is.

And if you do, I suggest you let him
know that I have some very valuable

information that he would find real
interesting.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah. And what might that be?

Word on the street is that Borson is in
deep trouble.

Sergeant, you and I have been around the
block enough to know how reliable the

street is.

Yeah, well, we have a Captain Frazee up
in vice, and he tells us exactly the

same thing.

Let me run something by you, Counselor.

Do you know that in top -level gambling,
money hardly ever changes hands?

They play with credit.

Win or lose, their position is just a
line in the bookie's ledger. Now, the

time that the high rollers ever flash
the cash is when they want out of the

game. If they're down, they pay off the
balance. If they're up, they collect.

What's your point? My point is, a few
weeks ago, somebody laid a long odds bet

at Bartholomew's, and they won. They won
real big.

400 ,000 bucks.

Now, the guy wants his winnings, right?
So they send a messenger over with the

money. The only thing is, the messenger
doesn't arrive.

Because somebody kicked him over for 400
Gs.

Now, the boys at Bartholomew know it was
an inside job, and they have narrowed

it down to Mr. Borson, your client.

Sergeant, if you ran that by Mr. Borson,
even if it's cruel, which...

Do you think he's going to admit to any
of it? No.

But you and I both know that his next
move will surprise the better.

Detective Cosler.

Another thing.

You better hope we find him before they
do.

That was Dan Winslow's ex -wife.

She wants to see us.

Let's go.

What the hell happened to you?

Don't ask.

I'm asking.

Mistaken identity.

After you left the parking lot last
night, these two guys, uh... They pick

up, take me to the top of Mulholland to
meet their boss.

And? The idiots actually hit the wrong
guy.

They apologized to me after they let me
go. Can you believe this?

Did you file a report on this?

There's two guys that actually look
worse than me today.

You know, if what McCall told me was
true, I shouldn't even be sitting here.

They might miss you and hit me.

What am I supposed to do about it?

I can only give legal advice, but... It
seems to me you either disappear or you

make a right with Anthony Scarlet.

Now, I know him. I got him off on a
double homicide charge, scot -free.

He was guilty as hell.

I'm sorry, I'm just very confused.

And I want to do the right thing.

You're not.

Sergeant McCall, the reason I called you
is because I have information that may

help you find my husband's killer.

He made me his sole beneficiary, and
among other things.

that his lawyer gave me was a safe
deposit key.

I got a court order to open it this
morning.

There... There were $220 ,000 worth of
Treasury bonds inside.

How could he have accumulated that much
money on a detective's salary unless he

was... Unless he was what?

Unless he was doing something... not
right.

Like what?

Whatever Dan was.

Whatever he did, he did for what he
thought were good reasons.

I have to believe that.

I have no idea what it was.

But I want you to find whoever killed
him.

Whatever it takes.

This is Winslow. We'd like to get a look
at those bonds.

as soon as possible.

Hey, the quarter to one.

I know what time it is. I've been up all
night and I'm mad as hell because I

finally figured this whole thing out.

You know what I can't believe? The
really sad thing here is that you lied

You said you didn't have anything to do
with this breakup.

No, no, no, no, no. You see, what I said
was is I didn't go to Devane and ask

for the separation.

Oh, I see. Now we're going to have word
games here, huh?

This whole thing was a setup so that you
could be partnered with Trainor. What

are you talking about?

What do you mean what I'm talking about?
Cut the party line, Hunter. I know

what's going on. I figured it out.

Trainor's dirty. He's a wise guy with a
badge, and your job is to nail him.

Well, aren't you going to ask me how I
figured it out? How'd you figure that

out? I put two and two together, and I
get four. It's called brilliant police

work. Would you like a standing ovation
now?

How a... What about apologizing to me
for not telling me what was going down

here?

Well, in the words of our brand new
captain, he said, Hunter, if you let

in on this, the separation will be
permanent.

Oh, that's great.

Oh, I see. Okay, so I have to suffer so
that the game plan isn't blown. Is that

it?

I also found out that Dan Winslow was
dirty.

Yeah, well, I figured that.

Left his wife a whole batch of treasury
bonds.

Quarter of a million bucks worth.

Well, now what we have to do now is get
some solid evidence on Traynor.

Pretty hard to be dirty and not have
your partner know about it, you know?

He purchased...

The treasury bonds and six installments,
and it coincided with six head and

heart silencer hits.

The first three we knew about from L .A.
The other three I got off a C .I .I.

computer run. One was in Reno, one was
in Vegas.

And one in Hawaii.

You see, Trane and Winslow went to
Hawaii.

Two years ago, right? Two years ago,
that's correct.

I can't believe they were hit men on
retainer.

They sure were.

Well, we have a lot to work on now,
don't we, partner?

Want some coffee?

No, I don't want any coffee. Oh, good.
There is something I want, though. What

do you want?

I want to know that if, when, and if our
partnership ever does come to an end

here, that we are going to sit and we're
going to talk about it like normal

people, and we'll part as friends.

That's a good idea, partner.

And if you ever pull another stunt like
that again, I may not take you back. I

bet.

This is God.

Oh, Mr. Scarlett.

I have... I have to talk to you, Mr.
Scarlett.

What do you want?

I know I don't need to say this, but I
ripped off the 400 grand. I... I did.

And, uh...

I want to make it right.

Cut me some slack, Tony.

Give me a little time, and I'll hand
every last cent of it back to you. I

got $360 ,000 I'll give you right now.

I'll work off the other $40 ,000.
Anything you say, anything.

Come on.

Wouldn't you rather have the money than
my dead body?

Tony, I made a dumb mistake.

Believe me, I won't ever make another
one.

You got it with you?

No, but I can get it all I have to buy
this evening. You bring it to the secret

harbor restaurant in the marina. Right,
I know that place, yeah.

And you be there at six o 'clock sharp.

Okay, thanks.

Don't make me subscribe.

Thanks a lot.

You Mr. Borthen?

Yeah. You gotta call on the payphone
back there.

Hello?

Mr. Scarlett?

Mr. Scarlett?

in a shoot like that, McCall?

Same place you did.

We wanted you alive.

You'd have shot to kill, huh, Hunter?

You'd have killed me, wouldn't you?

I'll never know, will you?

Better this way, though.

You're gonna take Scarlett to the
penitentiary.
