Original subtitles

I can't stop the bleeding.

There's so much blood.

She's not breathing.

What should I do? Please help me.

Guys,

sit back. Sit back. We need them back.

You heard the boat, please.

There's some room here.

This is the 9 -1 -1?

Gunshot 1.

Let's keep moving. Poor little guy.

You didn't see any other cars go in and out, people walking by, anything?

No. I get on, the place is usually empty.

That's why I noticed the car right out.

I banged on the window, but it was pretty obvious she was dead.

And then you called security?

Huh, some security.

Hey, don't I get, like, your business card? You know, in case I remember

something? Are you admitting to withholding evidence?

No way.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Blood forced to the head, blood outside the car, probably killed there. We've

got a partial shoe print. That's a preliminary analysis.

Was she sexually assaulted?

No. That's preliminary also.

Hey, Doc. How's that call summon?

Oh, the body aches to the worst.

Got an Ann Mulaney, 23, single, Daly City, home address. She's a student at

Business Learning Center. That's here in the building.

Got a payroll check from a restaurant called Pier 74 and $82 in cash and a

watch. At least I think it's gold.

18 karat Cartier.

Expensive. Rolls out robbery.

I'm going back.

Fill me in later. I'm going to have to issue a press release at some point.

Mark Isaac.

Empty jewelry boxes.

Rolex. Like the captain said, definitely robbery.

Okay, first thing, we trace the serial numbers on the boxes.

Should we speak to some other students and professors while we're here? After

run down the stolen jewelry.

Assuming it's stolen.

You've got a college kid in a beat -up car with $50 ,000, $100 ,000 worth of

jewelry in the trunk.

I know it looks suspicious, but we're... We run the jewelry.

Is that you?

No, it's not me. Is that you?

No, it's not me.

Don't answer it. Let it go to her voicemail.

Message one.

You said 10 o 'clock.

Where's my damn stuff?

Either it's here by midnight or the deal's off.

5550178. That was your last... Ivan Rudnick, guaranteed pawn and loan.

busted him a couple of times for dealing in stolen goods.

You recorded that off her voicemail? How'd you get the code?

She kept it in her wallet. Not very bright.

Same place I keep mine.

We'd like to hold off on releasing the victim's identity. Monitor the cell

in case she gets any more business calls.

The woman lived with her brother. We should try to go to him first. What if

someone obvious?

What's obvious is she had a stolen watch on her wrist. The serial numbers on the

watch boxes match three jewelry store robberies in the last two months, all

unsolved, and she made at least one business deal from her cell phone that

know of.

Someone ripped her off, and then they killed her. We can go talk to whoever.

just don't tell them that she's dead.

You're figuring one crime leads to another, solve the robbery, solve the

Exactly. Still, it could be someone from her personal life.

Exactly.

And it's policy to notify the Knights of Kent as soon as possible.

I still go with my gut instinct.

Who was the last person to see her alive?

Probably someone from the business center.

She was there for a night course. Follow it up. What about the pawn shop?

It's worth a shot, but Rudnick didn't kill her. He called after she was dead.

We should go to her brother first.

Either it's my case or it's not.

Okay, your way.

Till 3 o 'clock and then we inform the brother.

What about the cell phone records?

They're coming.

Listen, next time you two disagree, I don't want to know about it.

Work it out.

So, give me the shirt version.

The dog was shot twice and dumped.

Witnesses? None so far. The woman who stops the rover lying on the side of the

road. Dog lover.

Has two Russian wolfhounds and a Pekingese, if you can imagine that.

Didn't you ever have a dog, Jenny?

I had a plant once.

It didn't make it.

Tax ID?

No collar, no tattoos, no implants. The victim is hanging on, but not talking.

Ballistics?

Smith and Wesson, 38. Look, Captain, I've been up half the night with this

nonsense, answering stupid questions for the press.

If it's all the same to you, I've got work. Yeah, you do.

Find the dog shooter.

You're joking.

The mayor wasn't joking when he called me at 6 a .m. this morning.

Pet owners vote, too.

Come on, what is this?

Penance for past sins. I'm the dog detective now.

This is page one news.

You took the call. You gave the interviews.

Your case.

Want to see me? It's a job for animal control.

We've set up a hotline. Calls have been coming in all morning. I promised the

mayor a task force.

You and Magda are it.

Freeway dog thing? Yeah.

Kind of sicko does this to a defenseless animal.

So just what is the penalty for attempted dogicide in this state?

We roll up a newspaper and hit the offender on the nose?

Cruelty to animals is a felony. It's punishable by up to three years in

If that doesn't work, we put the perp in the panel.

Can I help?

I don't know, can you? Well, I can certainly type a hell of a lot faster

that. Okay, you think that Harry did it.

Does Harry have a last name?

That's right. You're used to writing a desk, aren't you?

I'm used to using my head, if that's what you mean.

What makes you think the perpetrator was an Arab?

A lot of people have dark complexes. That doesn't make them all Arabs.

McDermott.

And why do you think that Harry... He hates dogs.

Yes, that is hard to fathom.

Does... Harry owned a gun, ma 'am. You misspelled carrot.

Thank God you're here to help us poor uneducated street cops with grammar and

such. Uh -huh. How many women exactly were in the car with him? No, ma 'am.

dog wasn't hit by a car. It was shot. Uh -huh.

Your Harry wouldn't do that.

Yes. I'm relieved, too.

Bye -bye.

Is there a dog anywhere in this story, sir?

Don't you think that I'm senior investigator and no one's ever right,

is wearing a little thin?

You've been here, what, two weeks?

Why don't you give it at least a month before you try to take over?

I'm not being rude. I'm asking a simple question, sir.

Sir?

Showtime.

Message one.

Hey, girl, it's Shelby.

Did Mr. Wonderful, uh, what's his name, Jason, from last Friday call?

Message two.

Where are you? It's Heather.

Listen, are we going tomorrow for sure? Let me know.

Oh, did your guy Jason call? Never should have done it on the first date.

That was your last... Great.

Did he call?

Who?

Mr. Wonderful.

No such thing.

Maybe he's not calling because he killed her.

Well, let's find him and ask him.

Becks couldn't have been that bad.

He's shy.

He needs time. Men need to be called. You can't expect too much.

Especially after you've slept with them.

What would you do if a guy doesn't call?

Oh, they always call.

They want to know me. They want to be part of my life. They want to share.

But if he didn't, I'd breathe a great big sigh of relief.

Of course, I liked him.

Then I'd just hunt him down and flash his tires.

Worth $1 ,000?

Mom.

It's a Vera Wang.

What do you do?

If you don't want to buy me a wedding dress, fine. What are we doing here? Of

course I want to buy you a dress.

But then reason.

Oh, wow.

Isn't that exquisite?

It's perfect for you.

Shall we try it on?

Mr. Pope? Yes? I'm Inspector DeLorenzo, SFPD. I'd like to ask you a few

questions. Yes.

What about? About one of your students, Ann Mulaney.

Did she attend class last night?

Yes. Ann was here.

Is she all right?

We're investigating her possible involvement in several recent robberies.

You have the wrong person.

And why do you say that?

Because she's one of my finest students.

Intuitive, smart, hardworking.

She had a late start in her education, but she's definitely going places, and

she wouldn't risk her future for anything.

Do you always get so involved in the personal lives of your students,

If I can.

Certainly if they show as much promise as Anne.

Are you married?

What does that have to do with anything?

I was just curious how much promise Anne actually showed you.

Was it really necessary to accuse him of having an affair with a student? We

weren't there to invite him to tea. He's not a legitimate subject. Sure he is.

We have over half a dozen students that say they went to coffee with him and

then he went home. We have their word for it and his. He had time to come back

here and kill her. You're telling me he didn't have the hots for her. That's not

a crime.

Oh, so I rattled his chain a little. So what?

Is he still a suspect?

No. And why do we know that? Because we didn't tell him that she was dead.

I can't tonight.

Okay, tonight.

And I'll be wearing sackcloth and ashes.

Hi, where's Amanda?

I'll call you back.

She's trying on a $5 ,500 dress.

And how are you, Mark?

Hanging in there.

I came to drop off a car.

I borrowed it.

Mine died again.

You know, I got to get back to work. Could you just tell her I came by? Sure.

You look different.

I'm supposed to look different on my wedding day, stupid.

Is it too much?

Oh, it's just right.

My fiancee.

It's bad luck to see the bride in her dress before the wedding.

The wedding's not till June.

So, uh, I parked the car up front and your mom has the keys.

Love you.

I love you, too.

Can I have a moment alone with my daughter, please?

Sure.

Take your time.

Go ahead.

Sing it. No, no, I have an idea.

Why don't we take the money that we would spend on the wedding and buy you

Mark... A car.

Something safe.

Something to elope in. Why are you doing this?

What? You know I want a traditional wedding.

Daddy thinks it's great.

You haven't done anything traditional in your life.

As for your father, he's not paying.

So who cares what he thinks?

What? You are not going to ruin this for me, Mom.

I love Mark, and we are getting married, and I don't care what you think.

I don't want this stupid crap.

Police Department. Inspector Eckstead speaking.

The dog who was shot?

Yes, ma 'am. Do you have any information about police nature?

Is Roger all right?

The dog's name is Roger?

Ma 'am?

Ma 'am?

Something?

No, no, no.

Blunt force trauma.

A flashlight and whatnot. Something like that.

Killed outside the car.

With no evidence of sexual assault.

Gee.

She was hit first with an open hand, slapped very hard, and more than once.

Rage. Could the blow that killed her have been unintentional, an accident?

That's doubtful. Her skull is crushed.

Death is instantaneous. Here.

Read all about it.

Ann Mulaney.

Definitely going places.

Not anymore.

Such sad faces.

I'm going to take them all home.

What are you doing?

I wish.

My mom hates dogs, and I need her to take care of Ben.

Someday.

Come on. Let's go see how our victim's doing.

How about you?

Am I interested in an animal companion?

Not once his house broken.

And has two legs.

Roger.

Roger!

I make six Jason calls so far.

This is all these people have to talk about? Yeah, it's not like us.

I met this guy once at a party, and we must have talked for hours, so I gave

my number.

Six months later, he calls me like it was the next day.

You should have gotten his number. Oh, I got his number.

So when did this Jason date of the century take place?

Friday.

Six days ago?

Game over.

Where's your sense of romance?

Defeated by my sense of reality.

Hey, Cap.

What do you think? You think this Jason guy is going to pick up the phone? We're

running two to one against.

Dennis Obradowski.

I went out with him just once before high school graduation.

He French kissed me goodnight and I let him fill me up.

Way to go, Captain.

I sat by the phone for two weeks after that.

Nothing. Never heard from him again.

Explain that.

He's a man.

Not a real man.

You know what? I think you should call him.

Obradovsky, how do you spell that?

No, it's too late.

I'd rather live with a phantom.

What phantom?

Red answer involved.

We traced the hotline caller who gave us the dog's name to a

public phone in an apartment building.

How is freeway dog doing?

This is my life.

Not that bad.

What? The dog's name is Roger, and I'll tell you how he's doing. If that woman

hadn't stopped and called 9 -1 -1, he'd be taking up space in a landfill right

now. Instead, we're getting 50 calls an hour, donations are pouring in, and the

press won't leave us alone.

Go figure.

Ten bucks three days, starting now if Jason doesn't call.

You're on.

See ya. Bye.

I'll be right out.

What's up, officers?

We're wondering if you've ever seen this dog.

Hell, yes.

Great. He's all over the news.

We met here in the building.

Here? No.

Me? I like dogs.

But the owner's dead set against them.

Mind if we look around?

No, help yourselves.

Thanks.

Ivan Rudnick, pawnbroker extraordinaire.

How do you want to play it?

Just follow my lead.

I can handle that.

Ladies, to what do I owe this pleasure?

You know, I can offer you the civil service discount on any merchandise in

humble shop.

Why'd you rip her off, Ivan?

I'm supposed to know what you're talking about?

Ann Mulaney.

Never heard of her.

Well, you called her on her cell phone last night.

She have merchandise for you?

We have it all on tape.

That Ann.

I believe she had some household appliances I was interested in.

Mm -hmm. Appliances like this?

Hey, that's very handsome.

We already have her in custody on the robberies, so that leaves you.

She came to me, offer me some nice items. Good stuff.

And so I quoted her a price as usual.

But first I said to her, I must verify ownership.

She never showed. That's all I know.

Hey, I run a very legitimate business.

Why don't I believe him? Because his lips are moving.

Hey, insults upon false accusations.

You're making my attorney a very happy man.

You have no new messages.

We're nowhere.

It's three o 'clock.

Could have worked. Close doesn't count.

Come on, let's go give the brother the bad news.

Would you check this out?

Uh -huh.

Oh, my gosh.

This is too funny.

No pep.

Like animal kingdom. How do they get away with it?

That's the thing. Nobody's even trying to keep it a secret.

Tobias Mulaney?

Yeah, I'm Toby.

What's this about?

Can we come inside and talk to you for a second?

Annie and me.

That's it.

That's the whole family.

Our mom took off when I was... 12, Annie was 17.

She took care of us.

Can you think of anyone who would have wanted to hurt your sister?

She had nothing but friends.

Everybody liked her.

You know, I knew something was wrong when she didn't come home last night. I

worried. I looked, I couldn't find her anywhere.

Can you tell us about the robbery?

What?

We found evidence of stolen goods in the trunk of your sister's car.

In her car?

Were you and your sister having money problems?

No.

I make Dean money at the garage. Annie's a waitress. She goes to school.

But Annie wouldn't do anything wrong.

I mean, we're not rich, but we get by, you know?

We could handle it.

It was just the two of us.

We're going to need you to identify the body. No, I can't.

We'll be there with you.

Do you know a friend of your sister named Jason?

No.

They went out on a date last Friday.

She stayed over at some guy's house.

Do you know if she had seen him again since then?

No chance.

Why not?

She'll like him.

That's not what her friends told us.

Maybe she got embarrassed.

She didn't usually sleep with guys. She hardly did.

Truth is, I think he kind of got weird with her.

You don't think that he...

You

called it. You said Jason was the guy.

He was just another name on the list.

I should have listened.

If we'd gone to the brother right away, like you said, we could have been

looking for Jason all this time.

He could be halfway to Never Never Land by now.

Well, this is a side I haven't saved.

What? Self -pity. Trust me.

I liked you better as an arrogant bitch.

You think I'd really just say so? I'm a big girl.

Look, when I found out I'd be working with you, I thought fantastic.

I get to learn from the best.

Except I really don't get to learn it all, do I? All I get to do is follow

lead.

Not my idea of partner.

You passed your exam. They handed you a star. Fine.

You deserve a shot. We ride together. We work cases together. That does not make

us partners.

That gets earned, honey. And you want the key to the city. Look somewhere

You got that? Oh, absolutely.

But let me tell you something. I don't sit on my hands, and I don't walk in

anyone's shadow.

I have an opinion, and you'll hear it.

And you can make calls, no problem.

But you better be right.

And by the way, I think you did blow it, honey.

Yes? Hi.

I was wondering if you've seen this dog in the building?

Um... Hello?

This woman is the police officer.

She's looking for a dog in the building.

It's hard to see.

We think his name is Roger.

They don't allow pets here. Are you sure you have the right address?

You haven't seen him? Like I said.

Maybe when you'd be out walking your dog, the two I saw you with earlier?

Sometimes. We walk our son's dog.

He lives close by. I can see how you might have been mistaken.

Yeah, that must be it.

Thank you.

Hi. I wonder if you can help us out. We're looking for the owner of this dog.

Uh, come in.

Let me get my glasses.

Sorry, I've never seen it before.

Okay, thanks for your time.

Didn't anyone tell you? They don't allow pets in the building.

That's what I've heard.

Hey, any revelations?

There's a lot of scared pet owners in this building.

How about you?

I think we need a new picture.

It's just such a shock.

And she's been here two years?

I started right after.

Do you know who? We're working on it.

We've been talking to everyone in her life. She recently dated a guy named

Jason. Did you know him? Jason, sure.

I mean, I never met him. The one who didn't call.

Could you describe him? Give us the last name? Maybe tell us where he lived?

None of us actually met him.

None of you?

Are you sure?

Do you have any idea how they met?

Here. Jason came in a couple weeks ago with a big group for lunch and waited on

them. You know, they're all suits.

You know, businessmen.

Anyway, he called her the next day and they went out that one time.

Um, they... We know they slept together.

Did she tell you what he did for a living? Tell you where he lived?

I think the marina?

No, no, I don't remember that.

The kind of car he drove, white, black, Asian, any physical description at all?

I think he might have been tall.

I'm not sure.

Okay. Thank you very much.

Thanks.

Inspectors? Yes.

Anne said that he was good in bed.

Really good.

Excuse me.

Didn't live in the marina. Businessman. Good in bed. Really good.

Narrows the field.

thing for roast beef, too, huh? All right.

All right.

What the hell?

By the way, Doc says you're going to be fine.

Yeah.

There you go.

That's a good boy.

Yeah.

You haven't found your owner yet.

No other person who shot you.

I'm working on it.

We're looking at this one apartment building.

Of course, there's no dogs around, right? Of course, everybody's

Yeah.

There you go.

There's a good boy.

There's a good boy.

We'll figure it out.

God.

Let's get kind of lonely in here.

Oh,

I was just going out. Why don't you just tell us about Roger when we were here

yesterday? I told you, I don't know anything.

What are you afraid of?

Nothing. We could bring Roger down here if you like. I mean, well, I mean, it'd

be painful, but I'm sure he's well enough to travel.

No, don't. I mean, it's a waste of time.

Oh, I just thought you might like to see him.

You know that cute little thing he does when he rubs his muzzle against your

legs?

It's really sweet.

Please leave me alone.

Of course, then he tries to rip your door down from the inside out.

Why don't you just tell us the truth, Evelyn?

Morning. Morning.

I made coffee.

No, thanks.

Well, you don't like my coffee. Why does that not surprise you?

No, I like your coffee. I think it's probably the best police station house

coffee ever produced on the planet Earth.

Is that what you want to hear?

Got cell phone records?

Incoming. I can read a phone bell.

What's that one?

A lot of those. Her house, her brother.

Work, campus, girlfriends, pawn shop.

Where's last Friday? Go back three or four weeks.

Nothing.

Maybe Jason decided to call her at home and for some reason she changed her

mind.

I'm going to check with her brother.

Wait.

You see something?

No.

It's what I don't see.

Instead of looking at who called, maybe we should look at who didn't.

We went back six months.

Toby typically called her four, five, six times a day, every day. The day

she was murdered, eight times.

The ME placed at the time of death between 1 and 2 a .m., but there were no

calls from the brother between midnight and 5 p .m. the following day. And he

said he was worried, looking everywhere for her, so why didn't he call?

Everyone else did.

He's got a juvenile record and a history of violence. No gang affiliations, but

everyone we spoke to said he's bad news. We'll figure him for the robbery.

Get a warrant.

Jeannie.

Um, I'll start the paperwork.

How's it working out?

It's not.

Call me intuitive.

What's the problem? She's not cutting it? Not up to your standards?

No, I didn't say that, actually. She's good.

She's smart.

It's just a personality thing.

We clash.

That can be good.

Keeps you on your toes.

I don't need someone to keep me on my toes.

Look, you're my closer.

I depend on you.

I also know you're going through a tough time. You lost a partner and a friend.

So tell me what you want.

If you don't want a particular person, I'll find you someone else.

You want to dump Angela?

She's gone.

But let's be straight about it.

I know what's wrong, and so do you.

She's good, but she's not thick.

No one is.

You've got a piece of that action, too?

Well, look who's here.

Extorting money from your tenants to allow them to keep their pets.

That's against the law.

I don't know who you've been talking to, but you're way off base.

Evelyn Corbett, apartment 115.

She got laid off from her job so she couldn't pay.

So you took her dog, Roger, shot it and dumped it to set an example?

Yeah, well, she's a burnout, okay?

I think she's back on drugs.

Besides, what dog?

She signed a lease saying she didn't have one.

You're a pretty sizable guy, aren't you?

Don't remind me.

Big, tough guy.

Picking on a bunch of desperate people.

Scaring them, squeezing them dry. I bet you love every sick minute of it.

Look, you're done. Because I got work to do.

You know what I see?

I see a big, dumb, coward.

As a matter of fact, I think you're so dumb, you probably still have the gun

used to shoot Roger in your apartment.

I'll tell you what. Why don't we get a search warrant and find out?

Just hold on.

Look, what do you want?

Maybe we can work something out here.

No go.

Come on.

Assaulting a police officer?

Attempted bribery of a police officer?

Harlan Cooper?

I think you're under arrest.

Look what I got.

Damn cops.

What cops, honey?

Huh? It's just you and me here. You got something to say to me?

Resisting arrest.

Thank you very much.

Now I'm done.

He's at the garage. We're moving in.

Copy.

Toby. Tobias Mullaney, you're under arrest for the murder of Anne Mullaney.

have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used

you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney.

If you can't afford one, one will be provided for you.

Take him away.

I don't have to talk to you until my lawyer gets here.

I wish you wouldn't.

I don't want to hear your lame excuses.

Don't say work, because it doesn't matter.

We searched your house.

We found your sister's blood on a pair of your shoes that matched the prints at

the murder scene.

It's over.

What a waste.

Yeah, no kidding.

First the sister gives up half her life to take care of this kid, and then she

gets killed for it.

She should have dumped you years ago. She said she never wanted to see me

I needed her to help me sell my stuff and pay off the guys I bought the jobs

from. You don't mess around with guys like that. What? She was too busy to

out her brother? No, she was getting an education.

She was going to have a better life.

She made me beg.

She said, okay, she'd help me one last time, but then she was out of my life

good. What about me? What was I supposed to do?

Push her, maybe slap her around. What'd you hit her with, Toby?

It was an accident.

I didn't mean to kill her.

Careful. He's still got a while to go before he's healed.

Does he need medical attention and medicine?

I suppose.

I can't afford that.

Look, I can't keep him.

There'll be a new manager. I'll be evicted. I mean, this is my home.

Please understand.

Look, you and the other tenants who own pets could talk to the building owner.

I mean, there's enough of you.

When I got him, he was so little and cute.

Now look at him.

All right, I'll take him back to the shelter.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

Come on, boy.

Bye, Roger.

Come on.

You can make a nice pair.

We're a pair, all right.

To keep each other company.

That works, huh? You take them back home, set some ground rules.

You give it a try. What do you think?

Remember that plant you had?

Right.

Look.

Aunt Emily.

She bought you the dress?

Sure. She can afford it. No sweat.

She said she'd help pay for the other wedding expenses, too.

I don't need my sister's help to...

Pay for my daughter's wedding. Okay, fine, Mom, whatever.

Isn't it spectacular?

He's always confessing to the DA. They think in murder, too.

No more than he deserves.

Amen.

If I left you out of the loop before, I'm sorry.

I'm a big girl. Good.

You need to be on this job.

Look, are you dropping me as partner or what? I'm assuming the captain gave you

an option.

I thought I'd let it ride for now.

It's okay with you? It's all right with me. Is it all right with you? I said it

was.

Tomorrow we bus a poncho.

C .D.

Yeah.

You were right about the cell phone being the key.

You were right about the brother.

Hey. Hey.

How's the dog?

Uh, pooch paradise.

When we got back to the shelter, there was a line of cars waiting to adopt him.

He'll go to a good family. I love happy ending. Yeah.

One for the road.

Message one.

Anne, hi, it's Jason.

I'm so sorry I didn't call. I had a family emergency.

I had to fly back to Atlanta on the spur of the moment and I didn't have your

number with me.

I hope you can forgive me.

I'm not the kind of guy you must have thought I was.

Anne, I've been thinking about you a lot.

only the one time so far, I think we could be great.

I think you're special, and I almost wish we hadn't slept with each other.

There's more than that going on.

Anyway, call me soon.

Can't wait to see you.
