Thank you.

You breaking that robbery?

What's the matter? Don't you have enough
cases of your own?

Plenty.

Now it is, maybe one of my snitches hurt
something. Well, I think we got it

covered, Sloan.

Just trying to be helpful.

Don't worry. If we need any help, we'll
let you know.

Got an appointment, Sloan?

Following up a lead in a Janessa case?

Black coat.

You slow?

Yeah. Lloyd Schroeder, Internal Affairs.

Thanks for coming. Yeah.

So you're with the 15th, huh?

I was there for six long years.

Thank you.

Edge Greenwood still have?

Oh, yeah.

This isn't easy, but I don't have any
choice.

So you think you found some dirty cops?

Four detectives in my division. What
makes you so sure?

Snitch I've been running the past couple
of years, put me on him.

What did he give you?

Name of the defense.

I busted him and he wouldn't roll over,
but everything he had came from

burglaries they investigated.

You're going to have to do better than
that.

Last Friday I overheard him discussing a
burglary.

When I checked the reports on Monday, I
saw that it didn't go down until

Saturday night.

All right.

Anything else?

A couple of them have been throwing
money around.

One of them bought a new vet, and now
they've got a plane.

Stuff like that. All right, all right.
Do you have names?

Gene Vickers.

Jim Michaels.

Rick Hughes and Bob Cole.

You know any of them?

Yeah.

Yeah, I went to the academy with
Vickers.

Sounds like him.

Look, you did the right thing keeping
this informal.

I'll take it from here.

I'm going to look at this personally.

Here we go.

Four aces. Strike again.

All right.

Here you go.

I don't think I'll bother to count it. I
got two words for you guys.

Steve Sloan.

And that boy scout?

You're damn right.

He's been asking too many questions.

Well, we're still going to hit, aren't
we?

We got one little change.

More of this nickel -dime stuff. We're
going to make one big score and fold our

pens.

How big a score?

Half a million dollars apiece.

Doing what?

Exactly.

Excuse me.

I don't know. Maybe we'll invest in a
little real estate.

Bang, bang.

Maybe you should buy a lottery ticket if
you're feeling lucky.

Well, well, well.

Looks like everybody's a winner.

It's nice to see the old gang still
together.

How's the poker game?

Yeah, we're not seeing anything without
a lawyer.

Oh, come on, Eugene.

Is that any way to talk to an old
friend?

I just want to see how the guys are
getting along.

Nice Corvette, Hughes.

Nice tie, Schroeder.

Thanks. I understand Bobby over here has
got himself a new airplane, huh?

Of course, there are these ugly rumors
that you boys got some side action

You see, internal affairs just... Well,
they wouldn't be doing their job if I

didn't investigate.

Oh, bless you, Schroeder.

Thank you.

I'm the only thing between you and some
serious jail time.

Huh?

Schroeder, are you saying you want in?

Well, as long as we're playing poker,
uh, excuse me.

Yeah, you can deal me in for, uh...

I don't know.

Maybe... How about an equal share?

What?

Mark got admitted?

Uh, Norman, I'm a little busy right now.

I've got a lot of stuff.

Listen, compadre.

I am here to help you.

Protect you.

Make this a great place for you to do
whatever it is you do.

But I also have a hospital to run here,
if you know what I'm saying.

No.

That memo I sent you about the cost
overruns on office supplies, you never

signed it.

Supplies? You know, I was going to do
that, Norman. We ran out of pens.

It's a joke, Norman.

I know.

I know, and very amusing.

But here's how the card lay out. I was
hired to whip this hospital back into

shape. And the bottom line is the bottom
line.

I need your support on this.

How's that?

Listen, amigo.

People around here seem to look up to
you. So we scratch each other's back. We

both feel good.

I'll try to remember that.

One more thing, Mark. I realize this is
a teaching hospital, which means bands

of students roaming around, learning, I
suppose.

But could you ask them not to smile so
much?

Medicine is a serious business.

It doesn't look good.

I'll go to work on it, Norman.

What did Briggs say to you just now?

I'm not sure.

Well, the word on the floor is that he's
talking about firing the pediatric

nurses. That'd be terrible.

Well, I'm going to check it out before I
take any action. Action? What kind of

action?

I'm the new head of the Nurses'
Grievance Committee.

What Nurses' Grievance Committee?

The one I'm going to organize.

I'm the union representative here.

Don't forget.

How you doing? Hey.

Listen, about that, uh, that business we
were discussing the other day, I looked

into it, and I really don't think
there's anything there.

Are you sure? Hey, yeah, I got my own
sources, too, right?

Look, if you're uncomfortable with the
15th, ask Greenwood to give you a

transfer. Otherwise, I suggest that you
just, uh, you know, put it out of your

mind.

Hey, uh, gotta go. You take care.

What have you done up here?

He and I got you some baskets.

I just put a ham in there, and it better
be consumed, or I'm not going to waste

any more food on you.

What's the matter with you?

I got a call at home this morning.

Briggs fired those five pediatric
nurses.

Well, it's got to be a mistake.

Well, it better be.

Look, go on. Go to the hoop. I'm done
here.

Thank you for the ham.

Sure.

You okay?

Yeah.

Want to talk about it?

Talk about what?

What ever it is that's bothering you.

I'm just an open book to you, all right?

What's happening?

Well, I've been suspicious of a couple
of detectives at the precinct.

I think they may be committing
burglaries.

Oh, serious accusation.

You talk to anybody at Internal Affairs?

That's just the problem.

Schroeder, the internal affairs guy,
just blew me off.

Didn't believe you.

I don't know. I hate to sound paranoid,
but I got a strong feeling something's

not right here.

Well, you don't trust this Schroeder.

Speak of the devil.

That's Schroeder's number.

I'll be right back. Hey.

I'll be there in about an hour.

Schwerter?

Schroeder? Police!

Open up!

Okay, I'm on the job.

Guy, I'm in homicide at the 15th. My
ID's in my back pocket.

Check inside.

What's going on?

We had a report of gunshots.

Gunshots?

I was out cold. I didn't hear a thing.

There's a body on the floor in the
bathroom.

Looks like he's been shot.

That's him.

I saw him go in there just before I
heard the shot.

Detective Sloan, I'm placing you under
arrest.

I don't know which of you decided to
take out Schroeder, but it wasn't part

the plan.

Well, maybe the plan needed changing.

You did it?

No, I didn't.

And I don't want to know who did.

What difference does it make anyway?
Pitting on Sloan was a good idea. Killed

two birds with one stone.

Besides, how do we know you didn't do
it?

You had just as much reason as the rest
of us.

Well, whether we like it or not, we're
joined at the hip right now. There's

nothing better to jeopardize this
operation.

Even though everything's clear, you'll
need something for the pain.

That's no joke.

I can't believe how someone set me up.

I'm surprised Greenwood let me go on my
own recognizance. Well, he's known you

for a long time.

Boy, it looks bad, though.

They say it was your gun that killed
Schroeder. Uh -huh.

Did they also mention that the money
that was stolen from the evidence room

found in my locker?

I don't believe this.

Oh, at least you know it was one of
those four police officers because any

of them could have had access to your
locker.

Yeah.

Well, I better get over to the precinct
and see the captain.

Listen, why don't you stay at my house a
while?

Before. Well, won't your place be
running amok with the press?

Yeah, you're right.

Good idea. Thanks. See you. I forbid
this meeting.

Fine, Mr. Briggs. We're having it
anyway.

What is going on here?

As the shop steward of Nurses Local 498,
I'm informing our hospital

administrator that our grievance
committee is meeting.

You're informed.

I'm going.

Stop her before she ferments a nursing
rebellion.

Norman, I think maybe you shouldn't have
fired those nurses.

I'm not firing. I'm downsizing. All
major corporations are doing this.

An amigo.

I'll try to learn from you.

The board of directors has made it
clear.

Either I downsize the nursing staff or
make cuts elsewhere.

What kind of cuts?

Closed ER.

Closed neonatal.

Dump your elder life program.

You're not serious. Completely. I am a
man drowning in red ink.

Throw me a life -beservice loan.

Norman, I'll do better than that. I will
arrange a meeting with local 498 shop

steward. Dolores? No, I have difficulty
in communicating with her. A complete

difficulty. Norman, you have got to give
her a chance.

You and Dolores, you'll sit down at a
table. You will reason together.

You will work out a solution. Do you
think that she will listen to reason?

I do.

Dolores is a reasonable person, and it's
her job to negotiate with you.

Besides, what is your alternative?

Chaos?

Rebellion?

Country reports to the board?

All right, go on, I'll do it. Good,
good.

Hey, Mr. B.

Hi, Jack. Listen, I heard what happened
to Steve.

Listen, if there's anything I can do,
any way I can help out, you let me know,

okay?

Listen, there just might be.

I'm going to run over and look at the
crime scene right now. You want to come

along? Absolutely.

Great.

Really think you're going to get away
with this, Vickers?

I don't know what you're talking about,
Sloan.

Like hell you don't.

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

That's enough! Get back to work, now!

Sloan, in here.

For what it's worth, I don't think you
did this.

Well, I appreciate that, Ed.

But I'm suspended.

Until this is over, yes.

Well, it's not over.

Not by a long shot.

Hey, if you need help, you know where to
find me.

You boys got a warrant?

The crime scene is available to the
defense, Officer Sloan, and you're

to be home.

Did you seriously think I was going to
sit back and do nothing?

I see he dragged you into this, too.

It wasn't hard to do.

Steve, what happened here?

I don't know. I got knocked out the
minute I walked in.

I came to in this couch. Schroeder was
already dead.

And they used your gun?

Mm -hmm. And they stuck it back in my
holster. Did you find anything?

No, I just got here myself.

I found something.

I know this name.

What, T.

Raffanti?

Yeah, I went to school with Tommy
Raffanti.

Haven't seen him in years.

I'll tell you something, he knew some
serious people.

Serious? Oh, yeah.

Yeah, serious.

Oh, that's worth checking out.

Well, somebody could have come in and
out this door and the manager would have

never even noticed.

Steve? In the bathroom.

What are you looking for?

Just checking to see if anybody dropped
anything.

You know, like they struggled for the
gun.

Did you see anything?

No. Wait a minute.

What's this?

Is that Schroeder's?

Well, he didn't have it on the last time
I saw him.

And it's not mine.

Let me see that.

Look at this snap.

Like it's been stretched almost to the
breaking point.

Almost as if someone yanked it off
someone's wrist.

If we can find out who was wearing this,
we might just have our killer.

Man, that bracelet didn't even come
close to fitting Schroeder.

Now what do we do with it?

Well, if not Schroeder's, it could have
come off the wrist of the killer.

And just maybe it left an abrasion or
scratch of some kind.

Listen, Mark, I got Derek covering for
me tomorrow.

Where are you going?

I'm going to look up my old pal Tommy
Rafante.

See if he knows anything.

Jack, I appreciate this.

And so does Steve.

Forget about it, Mark. Please.

I was praying for murder. He'd help me,
right?

I'll see you later.

And besides,

it's not your fault your son became a
cop.

Some kids, they just, I don't know, they
just turn out bad, that's all.

What

is

all this?

I brought dinner.

Oh.

Barbecued meat byproduct.

My friend, this is going to be sautéed
salmon in a mild beurre blanc sauce.

This is going to be rice pilaf,
asparagus vinaigrette. Huh?

Did we get the rice out of the oven?
Sure.

Mmm.

I can't believe I did that. It's a tough
place. We don't need the ricer. I am

sorry. Oh, man.

Look at that.

What a mess.

Paper towels.

That bracelet didn't fit. Schroeder did
it. No.

I sure wish I knew if it fit one of
those four detectives.

You know, somebody ought to talk to
them.

Yeah.

Someone like you?

Yeah. Look, you can't argue with me this
time.

None of those guys, they're certainly
not going to talk to you. Dad, I don't

want you taking any chances. I won't.

Tell me about them.

All right.

Did you say smoked salmon?

Oh, no.

Okay, that's it.

How about some barbecued meat
byproducts?

And asparagus vinaigrette.

Okay.

We're going to pair you off and put you
through the course over there.

It was once a tea room when this was an
apartment store.

Remember to wear your goggles, because
even though the bullets are plastic,

can sting.

Now we have one, two, one, two, one,
two, one, two, one.

We have an odd number here.

Here's the partner now.

Oh, no, I'm not a police officer.

Come on, Dr. Stallone. You're the
medical consultant to the department.

We'll do just fine.

I don't think I'm the kind of partner
you'd want to choose for this kind of

work. Now, the idea is there are two
suspects hidden in this mop warehouse

somewhere. We have to drop them before
they can get us.

Now you're armed and dangerous. Well,
I'm not much of a gun, I have to tell

Well, there's just paint inside of
pellets.

Don't worry.

Well, too bad about you, boy.

Once upon a time, he was a pretty good
cop. Oh, he still is.

Well, I guess that depends on your point
of view.

Well, somebody else shot Schroeder and
framed Steve.

Can you prove that?

No, I can't.

But there are other people who had
motives.

Oh, yeah?

Who, for instance?

You knew Schroeder fairly well, didn't
you?

We worked in the same precinct for a
couple of years. You not only worked in

same precinct, you were in a narcotics
unit that Schroeder organized.

So what?

He cited you repeatedly for infractions
of discipline.

As a matter of fact, he put so many
black marks on your record, it cost you

promotion ever.

You'd like to play cop?

Hmm? No.

But I'm going to prove my son innocent
no matter what it takes.

Where were you the night Schroeder was
shot?

Working overtime on this, Doc.

Say, listen.

There's other guys around here
somewhere.

Yeah. Check over there.

I told you I wasn't very good.

You're going to play being a detective.

Perhaps you'd better learn.

Thanks for your advice.

Wait a second.

Is that yours?

I hate jewelry.

Oh.

Well, I guess you better find out who
else it might belong to.

Hi, have you seen Dolores? She's in Mr.
Briggs' office. Thank you.

How is it going?

Do you call threatening to fire every
nurse in this house that are

Do you think threatening to strike is a
compromise?

Hang on to this, Mr. Briggs. If my
nurses walk off, you'll be flattening it

under the patients yourself.

That woman is Jimmy Hoffer in her dress.

Well, at least you got the issues out in
the open, Norman.

I find you completely responsible for
this, Lone.

Not quite the kind of negotiation I had
in mind.

What do you say, Gene?

Jack Stewart, what are you doing here?

I was just over at Delaney's.

Sounds like old times, huh?

Except Delaney's isn't exactly the place
you find doctors.

How'd you know I got through medical
school?

Uh, I kept track, you know.

And, uh, besides, that's what you
wanted, and, well, you always get what

want. Yeah, I wish.

You look good. How you doing?

I'm keeping busy, you know.

Yeah, good. Working at the flower shop.

Well, you always like flowers, right?

Yeah,

I like them a lot better when someone
sends them to me, but... You haven't

changed an inch, huh?

I think so.

It's been a while, hasn't it?

Yeah.

Listen, you, um... Have you seen Tommy
Rifanti around?

Uh, yeah, he's still around. You looking
for him?

Yeah, I got, uh... A friend of mine has
a problem, and, uh... I thought maybe

Tommy could help.

Well, um... I gotta go, but, uh... Come
by sometime.

I will.

Hey, pal, off the car.

Detective Vickers, isn't it?

Who are you?

Mark Sloan.

Oh, yeah.

Steve's dad.

Sure.

Are you looking for me?

As a matter of fact, yes. I left several
messages, but you never called me back,

so I thought I'd catch you as you go on
duty.

I got a lot of work to do.

I really have to talk to you.

Get in.

What exactly is it you want to talk to
me about?

Steve did not kill Schroeder.

I am trying to find out who did.

Well, good for you.

Where are we going?

Well, I've got to clear up a little
something.

So what do you want from me?

Well, first of all...

Where were you when Schroeder was
killed?

Well, that's none of your business.

Look, I'm only making it my business
because my son's been accused of that

murder and I think he's innocent.

Okay, Madeline.

Where are they?

What do you got for me?

Doc, give her 50 bucks.

Huh? Come on, it's the price of
admission.

Where are they?

Room 12.

Thanks.

I only got three twenties. You're going
to have ten back.

I'll give it to you in trade, sugar. No,
you keep the change.

Look, Doc, will you get real?

Why would I want to kill Schroeder?

Because he's had an affair with your
wife.

But you are pushing your luck.

You recognize that?

I've never worn one of those in my life.

Where are you going?

Hey!

Don't do anything foolish.

I mean that.

It'd be better for you and better for
me, Regent.

You better stay together.

You better... Now look, in just a minute
that detective... Oh, boy.

Don't move. I'm telling you.

Now get out.

Don't let this guy go in.

What was that shot?

Well, I mean, these two separated. I
fired the gun. I didn't mean... I'm

Can you give me a ride back?

You are taking a cab. A cab?

Madeline, do you remember me from in the
lobby? I gave you all my money. Do you

owe me $5 for a cab?

Get lost!

Well, maybe I'll have better luck with
Cole and Hughes than I did with those

other two detectives. You eliminated two
of them, at least as far as that

bracelet's concerned.

Can I get in here for a second?

Well, I've only got the one bathroom.

So, uh, what did Jack find out?

Well, the name he found could be a
possible connection between Schroeder

mob.

Well, maybe that connection will lead
us.

To the others.

You know you can cut yourself like that?

Dad, I've been shaving for 20 years.

Has it been 20 years?

Boy, where'd the time go?

Why, it seemed like yesterday you needed
a stool just to look over the sink.

Why, I used to bounce you on my knee
when you were just a little tot.

In the long...

Dad, why don't you go put your teeth in
or something?

Okay. Where are they?

Hope the dog didn't take them.

Dog's been dead for 20 years.

Detective Cole?

That's me.

You're Steve Sloan's dad, right?

That's right. How'd you know that?

I'm a terrific detective.

Besides, I saw you at the precinct last
month. Oh.

Get in.

There's no front seat in here.

Yeah, I know. Get in the back.

Oh.

Where are we going?

I have to get rated on precision
driving.

Hang on.

There's no seatbelt back here.

No kidding.

Detective, do you know someone named
Tommy Rafonte?

No. Why, should I?

Well, he might have had something to do
with Detective Schroeder's death.

You mean he was in on it with Steve?

No, Steve didn't do it.

Really?

Why don't we just cut through this? What
do you want with me?

Tell me about Schroeder.

I barely knew him.

Well, weren't you in Schroeder's
narcotics squad?

Yeah, but that doesn't mean we were
friends.

This is the pursuit test.

Might get a little bumpy.

Didn't he desert you in the drug raid?
You were almost killed.

Then what?

Maybe you found an opportunity for
revenge.

Yes, could I take your pulse?

Professional curiosity.

Sure.

Actually, I prefer the other wrist
there.

So would you tell Detective Hughes I'd
like to see him?

Why would he want to see you?

Well, I found something he showed in his
apartment.

Quite interesting.

Tell him to give me a call.

Very good pulse.

Another day at the office, right? That's
right.

No, thanks. You stay,

Tommy.

Jack.

I hear you're a doctor.

I'm impressed.

You're looking good.

Taking care of myself.

I hear you're looking for me.

Yeah, I am.

A friend of mine who, uh, took a couple
of taps.

You're the wrong guy, Jack.

Excuse me, Mr. Rafati.

On Mr. Michael's phone, he said 3 p .m.
would be just fine.

Thanks, Mitch. Yes, sir.

What makes you think I could help you?

Well, my friend told me that, uh, you
got some juices somewhere in the

department.

Maybe you can ask him to pull some
strings.

Your friend's misinformed.

I don't know any cops.

Very good.

For old time's sake, a little advice.

You don't need a friend with that kind
of trouble.

Getting involved could be very
unhealthy.

You know what I mean.

Jack.

What a surprise.

I was just leaving.

Oh, yeah.

You two used to go out together.

Yeah, a long time ago.

I'll see you later.

Maybe we'll get together sometime.

Yeah, real soon.

What was that all about?

Nothing.

Did you call for me, Norman?

Sloan, do something.

The nurses are in the cafeteria taking a
strike vote. Oh, I'm sorry to hear

that. Sloan, talk to them.

Reason with them.

They like you.

They'll listen to you.

You're my best, Norman.

Thank you.

Listen up, everybody.

Listen up.

Word is, half of us are getting fired.

And whoever's left is going to be doing
double duty.

Half lose their jobs, half get broke to
death, and the patients get half the

care. Now, does this make any sense?

Dr.

Sloan, what are you doing here?

Did Mr. Briggs ask you to talk to us?
Yes.

Just a minute. Just let me say something
here.

I know you're all very angry, and I can
certainly understand why.

But the plain, bottom -line truth is
that this hospital's budget has been

be called a hospital if the patients
don't get the care they need?

No. Can the patients get the care they
need if there aren't enough nurses?

Well, no.

Are we going to accept this? No.

We want to pick up the goods Friday.

No problem.

You can pick it up at 1 o 'clock sharp.

Hey,

do you have any transportation and
storage facilities?

We'll have it secured by then.

But all you've got to concern yourself
with is making sure the goods are there

when they're supposed to be.

Looking for something, Detective Hughes?

You're Dr. Sloan, aren't you?

Yeah, Vickers and Michaels told me all
about you. Oh, I'll bet they did. Your

friends have been having some fun at my
expense.

What was it you wanted to see me about,
Dr. Sloan?

Where were you when Schroeder was
killed?

Tell me something, detective. What are
you up to?

Did Schroeder figure it out? Is that why
he got killed?

You want to know why Schroeder was
killed?

You ask your son.

Oh, I did.

That's how I found out about Schroeder's
private file.

What private file?

The one you're here looking for.

The one with photographs of you and some
underage girls.

The one that Schroeder's been using to
extort money from you.

This one.

The very existence of this gives you
enough reason to want to exterminate

Schroeder.

The grills never said they were miners.

Schroeder covered it up and then he
turned around and demanded money.

I hated Schroeder's guts.

But I didn't kill him.

You see, Dr. Sloan, if I was a killer, I
could drop you right now and no one

would ever know the difference.

Well, all except for the people I told
that I was coming here.

To meet you.

Like I said, I'm not a killer.

Does this mean anything to you?

Never seen it before.

Let me see your wrists.

My wrists?

And why should I do that, Dr. Sloan?

Because you want this envelope.

Well.

Hmm.

If I have any further questions, I'll
get in touch.

Who's there?

Viacom.
