Did you get a count on the wounds yet, Dolores?

I knew I'd forgotten something.

How many?

Two dozen, give or take.

Any defenses?

Left arm. He probably turned toward the door as he entered. The blade went

through the arm into the upper thorax.

He could have stopped right there.

He? It.

You ever in a good mood, Dolores? My corpses think I'm a laugh riot.

How long had the three of you been roommates?

I've been here about a year, and Karen and Amy moved in about ten months ago.

You found her?

I knocked on her door.

Sometimes in the morning I give her a ride to work.

Where do you work?

No, I don't. I'm a student.

Amy works.

She's a hairdresser.

I drive right by her salon.

It just doesn't make any sense.

He almost never does.

Your employment?

I'm a cocktail waitress part -time and student part -time.

Okay, you say you saw her before you went to bed. What time was that?

Around 11 o 'clock.

She was at the front door.

She was showing Tom out.

Tom is?

Amy's boyfriend.

They had an argument.

I know because I heard them yelling earlier.

I've got a partial shoe print on the balcony.

Good.

The guy I went out with last night is such a jerk.

Really?

Yeah, the check comes at dinner, and he looks it over, and he says it went $2

more. Is that wrong?

DeLorenzo.

Yeah, Captain, we should be ready to transport the body in a minute now.

What?

Yes, I will, right away.

What is it?

The hell?

Smile, partner.

You're on candid camera.

What? Nothing, I'm just getting a little tired of eating standing up.

Oh, yeah.

The day of reckoning has come, Jin.

Uh -huh.

We gotta make a decision.

I still have my apartment.

Yeah, I know that. With all my furniture.

Well, you have until the end of the month, right? Right, which is in two

My landlord said that I could sign a new lease if I want to.

You know what? I just got this place, you know.

You don't like it here?

I like it anywhere.

We just need to get settled someplace.

It's going to be here. We're going to live here. Fine.

Wonderful. I just want to move my stuff in.

Hmm.

What? You don't like my stuff? No.

You know, it's just a little, um...

Lived in. All right, we'll make a compromise then.

We'll get new stuff.

We'll get a new couch, a new dining room table, one that has chairs. Oh, God,

I'm starting to live like married folk.

We are married folks.

And like all good married folks, we should probably get our vacations.

Now, mine starts on the 8th. Hey.

You have this date circled. Is that when yours starts, too, on the 8th?

Um, no, I don't remember.

Well, could you find out? Because if we're going to make this happen, we've

to do it quick.

Yeah, sure.

We have to get out of here.

You know, go someplace, just you and me.

No weekend duty, no midnight pages, just us someplace.

You all right?

Yeah.

Let me do that.

Why don't we get Smile Project? Email.

Apparently, some of the more than 10 ,000 subscribers worldwide to the Girls

Cherry Street website record the live feed so they can edit juicier stuff.

Imagine their surprise this morning when they found themselves witnessing a

murder investigation.

Everyone wants to know the same thing. Was it real?

What a sicko.

So what do we got so far?

Victim's name is Amy Cabrera. She's 22, born in Los Angeles.

The suspect probably came through the victim's window, caught her in the bath,

multiple stab wounds, time of death was around midnight.

The roommate's all asleep, so they say.

No one else in the house?

Amy's boyfriend.

Apparently they had a fight earlier on and he left. Who's checking on the

boyfriend? Ginny and Magda. But here's the wild card. Is one of the roommates,

Rochelle, was the only one that knew about the cameras?

Yeah, she pointed them out to us after the alarm twisting.

There were six of them.

Total. All wired for sound.

One in each bedroom, one in the kitchen, one in the living room, and one outside

over the hot tub.

Match. So the question is, do the hidden cameras on the website have anything to

do with the murder?

Bringing Rochelle in for interrogation.

Let me know.

So if we can get this, can we get footage from around the time of the

Crime lab's working on enhancing it. The night vision image is pretty fuzzy.

There's not much detail.

I called my date a jerk on camera.

It's not on the website. I'll never know.

It is. He is a jerk.

Karen, I know this is hard, but we need your help.

Whoever killed Amy is still out there.

I don't know every name.

Just give us what you can. First name, physical description, how they knew Amy,

whatever you can remember.

You think whoever did this knew her?

It's a possibility.

The camera in my room could see everything, even at night.

No, not everything.

It was fixed on one area.

One area?

Your bed.

What should I tell my parents?

Amy was my friend.

I wouldn't do anything to hurt her.

Stop lying to her.

Sell her out.

Why didn't you tell us how it worked, Rochelle?

We want to know who was involved in the whole scam.

You're the only roommate that knew there were cameras in the house, so you must

know something.

I don't know.

Unless it was all a mistake.

And the killer intended to come through her window.

Tell us how it worked, Rochelle.

Excuse me.

Look at me.

I'm sorry.

And that makes it all right?

You hide cameras in my room, where I sleep, where I get undressed, where I'm

supposed to be safe, so millions of men can get off on watching me naked.

You use me.

I said I was sorry.

Give me more than half an hour. Help yourself to some coffee.

Help you?

Mommy Andrews?

Yeah. Step over there so we can talk to you.

Is this about Amy?

Yeah. Yeah, a buddy of mine saw it on the news. He called me this morning.

So you heard your girlfriend was dead and even so you decided to come to work?

I had to. Nobody to cover for me.

Besides, she wasn't really my girlfriend.

Amy and I...

fooled around, hung out, but that was all.

I've been seeing her like three, four weeks. It wasn't what I'd call a real

relationship. So did you and Amy fool around last night, Tom?

Yeah, I left around 11 and went home. Where's home?

Daly City. I've got a house there with a couple of the guys here from work.

Darren, what time did I get home last night?

Like 11 .30, a little before.

See, I was home.

All right, so you had sex with Amy, you went home, and you stayed home?

Right. What did you and Amy argue about last night, Tom?

I don't... You know, Tom, now would be a really good time to be truthful.

She wanted me to stay.

I wanted to go. It was no big deal.

No big deal?

You had sex with Amy with thousands of people on the planet watching you two on

the Internet, and that's no big deal? I don't know. That's kind of like a big

deal to me. What are you talking about?

He's sleeping with his murdered, and he's freaking selling tires.

Oh, he's scared. Please.

He has a fight with Amy. She winds up dead.

Thought he'd get dumb as a way out of it. Typical male behavior.

Then this isn't my hair from the blushing bride.

Yeah, well.

Oh, you know what? A friend of mine that I ran into says that he thinks he knows

Jack. Do you know when he went through the academy?

Uh, no. No?

Well, find out for me. Yeah. Okay.

I'll ask.

Is everything okay at home?

Yeah. Yeah.

Oh, Meg, please. Everything is fine.

It's, you know, whatever.

Typical nuisance stuff.

Furniture, vacation plans.

That's nuisance stuff?

No. All right, no.

Oh, whatever. You know what? It's great. Okay. All right.

He's incredible. He loves me. I love him.

All right.

Don't worry.

It's probably my fault.

So you knew that Karen and Amy were deliberately left out of the loop?

No, of course not.

Fine releases.

Amy Cabrera and Karen Lund.

Rochelle must have forged her signatures.

It's my fault for trusting her.

How many other houses do you have like Cherry Street?

Two at the moment.

Girls of Peach Street and Girls of Plum Lane.

Plum is down for renovation.

What about Cherry Street?

Well, I'm sick of what happened.

We probably won't be back online there for a while.

You know, let things cool down.

Okay, just so we have this straight. You buy houses, you wire them for audio and

video, and then solicit tenants who agree to live there under observation

the Internet?

Yeah, and it's all perfectly legal.

And perfectly profitable.

Knock on wood.

So you never actually met Amy Cabrera?

Uh, no.

Not in person.

So, any progress on catching whoever did this? We'll let you know.

Anything I can do to help?

Great, because we're going to need a list of your Cherry Street subscribers

presents.

Or we could get a search warrant.

These are computers go through this place inch by inch.

Also, where were you at 1221 this morning? Chicago. I jumped on a plane as

as I heard what happened.

Oh, and you can confirm that?

I will.

Look, I run clean sites. No bathroom frolic, no professionals.

Come on, inspectors, I didn't make the world. I just sell a product that people

want to buy.

God bless America.

When are we going to get some decent software in here?

Never. This is so dark ages.

This is so budget shortfalls.

What about the house?

It's owned by Peeping Tom Incorporated, Rochelle's name is on the lease, and the

rent is $1, and that's utilities included.

Not bad.

Yeah, especially split three ways.

Rochelle was greedier than that.

Peeping Tom paid her $4 ,000 in upkeep and expenses, expenses being mainly

parties, lots of parties.

Amy met Tom at one of those house parties.

He swore up and down neither him nor Amy knew they were online.

Showtime.

Where are the

other roommates?

Tucked safely in bed.

Lose them out.

Picture's still pretty grainy, isn't it?

Enhancements maxed out, audio and video.

Beyond this, we get into creative imaging, meaning fiction.

Let me tell you one thing, he knew the drill. What do you mean?

He knew the camera was there and how to avoid it.

Moving in anybody that was involved in installing the cameras or running the

website. Or anyone who ever logged on and watched.

Oh, 10 ,000 of them.

So we were hoping that you could pinpoint exactly what time Tom got home

Amy's last night, Darren.

Something wrong?

Okay, look, Tom's a friend, and he's kind of like my boss, and I know he

never do anything to hurt Amy.

But he did kind of lie to you guys.

What do you mean? He wasn't home by 11 .30 last night?

No, not about that.

When he got home, he turned on the computer so that he could watch him and

because he always liked to record the feed when he figured they were going

So you're saying that Tom knew about the cameras?

Yeah, we got the site at our house. I mean, we got a couple of them. It was a

bunch of single guys. Yeah, we get the picture.

But anyhow, one day Amy came into the store, and she was looking to buy some

tires, and she invited us to this party at the house. And then her and Tom

pretty much started dating right after that.

What happened after you watched Tom and Amy last night? I went to bed, and I

didn't see him after that.

Did Amy know about this website?

No.

Tom made me promise not to tell her.

He really...

Got off on that.

Any person who uses a concealed camcorder to secretly record another

without the consent or knowledge of that person with the intent to gratify the

lust, passions, or sensual desires is guilty of disorderly conduct.

I missed the meter.

Gee, let's bring up a parking ticket to go along with that and really throw the

book at him. We might do better with the audio taping part.

I'll talk to the DA.

Be nice if the law caught up with technology.

Yeah, we don't have enough crimes as it is. Let's invent some new ones. So

Wooten pretty much slides on this. He did send over that list of subscribers.

How many are local?

97.

How far?

Guys!

Jack Ellis.

Partner -in -law. How you doing?

Nice to see you. Hey.

Hi.

Well,

a buddy of mine told me about a furniture store that's going out of

It's great stuff, great prices, and I just wondered if you wanted to meet me

there after work.

Sure. Okay, good.

Here's the address.

I wrote it down for you. Thank you.

Hey, listen.

Meg asked me something this morning about you that I didn't know.

What's that?

When did you go through the academy?

I graduated in 89.

No, I don't know. It just sort of got me thinking. There's so many things I

don't know.

Were you into high school?

Your middle name, for that matter. God, I'm married to somebody whose middle

name I don't know.

Honey, there's all kinds of stuff that we don't know about each other.

We've got plenty of time to figure it out.

Don't forget now.

I bet I wouldn't. It's Lawrence.

What's that?

My middle name is Lawrence.

After my grandfather.

What's yours?

Louise.

Louise.

Okay. Well, now we know that.

Yep.

See you at 5 .30?

They close at 6.

a subscriber to the Girls of Cherry Street website?

I'll tell you, but please don't make this to my wife.

I want to fix things up.

Hi, Ms. Samuel Rotterdam, please.

That's me.

You're the subscriber to the Girls of Cherry Street website?

Who wants to know?

Yes?

Mr. Salton?

That's her.

Yeah, we have you on our list of subscribers for the Girls of Cherry

website. Yeah, absolutely.

So this was real.

Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?

Sure, yeah. Come on in.

Oh, um, what is it about Cherry Street that makes it so special?

Well, the girls, of course.

Totally natural and uninhibited.

Almost like they didn't know the cameras were there.

And the under -wrapped club material should have been better.

Under -wrapped club material?

Yeah.

Inspector, could you tell me... I mean, I had no idea that Terry Street was

right here in San Francisco.

Could you tell me where the actual house is?

I mean, not that I'd do anything. You could just drive by.

Uh, Mr. Fulton, can you tell me where you were this morning, approximately 12

.30 a .m.? Here?

I'm always here that time of night. That's when things heat up.

Hi.

Oh, hey, Dylan. How are you?

Okay.

Um... Magda, that's something for you.

Nate Basso, we met at Magda's wedding.

Hi, how are you?

You okay?

You look tired.

I was at the hospital.

Vampires wanted more blood.

Hey, would you do me a favor?

Would you let Magda know I left this for her?

I think she wants you to have that. I know, for cab fare. But she really can't

afford it.

I guess she went out on a case, huh?

Yeah. Something came up.

How are you going to get home?

The bus?

To your mom's house all the way in Oakland?

I'm used to it.

You know, I could take it.

I mean, I'd go that way anyway.

We're almost done here.

It's all right with you? Yeah, go. I can finish up here.

Thank you.

No problem.

You know, I really admire what you're doing, I think.

Like this son.

He's doing okay, right?

This son is great.

He's so great.

But please don't admire me.

Why not?

Hey, hey.

Whoa.

Here.

You don't know me, but there's one thing I'm pretty good at.

What's that?

Well, I happen to be a really good listener.

Is that so?

Yeah.

Creating, saying, doing well.

You talk, I listen.

I guess I don't have to go right home.

Are you going home?

Yeah.

I like it.

Well, you won't get a better value not in leather.

Oh, and did you notice the seat cushions? They have Velcro attachment.

No slipping.

That's great. What do you think?

Oh, well, it's comfy.

So is that a yes?

We have the same couch in midnight blue in the warehouse, if you're worried

about the color.

No, no, not worried. Well, if I might ask, what are the accent colors of the

room?

Can you give us a minute?

No problem.

Just that we do close in 20 minutes, and it is the final sale day.

Great.

I think we should do it.

You know, $700.

I need a couch, Jen. I know that, but... If you don't like it, just say you

don't. Jack, stop it, okay?

I like it. I do.

You can't decide right now. The color? The color is fine.

Jane?

We'll be right back.

Hey, hey. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I can't.

I can't do this.

Can't do what?

It's worth a mistake.

Buying furniture? What are you talking about? Everything, okay?

Everything is just happening really fast.

I'm here.

Ginny, I'm right here.

Talk to me.

Tom, there's something going on.

Tell me what it is.

Is it us?

You want out? Is that what it is?

Where did that come from? From you.

Not talking to me.

The truth is... I don't know the truth.

Do not walk away from me. Don't walk away from this.

You give so little.

Let me go.

I'm going to go.

Well, we timed it out, and the murder took place at 12 .22.

Tom was finished watching the replay of him and Amy having sex at around like 11

.45.

So it is possible that he did make it back to the house in time to kill her.

think it's likely?

We don't have a motive.

I mean, they did have an argument, but 23 stab wounds. I mean, Ginny and I

watched the videotape of the argument, and it really wasn't that bad.

On the other hand, he did know about the cameras.

Anything from the crime lab? It was all Amy's blood. They did find some dark

gray sweatshirt fibers that they could match to any of Amy's clothing, but it's

not much.

We're still checking up on the people from Peeping Tom that wired the house

all of Amy's ex -boyfriends.

And regarding the boyfriends, it's a long list.

We're even watching porno.

This is my favorite. I talked to a man named Donald Falcon yesterday.

Big Girls of Cherry Street fan.

So big that as a long -time subscriber...

He was offered access to the underwraps club. Which is what?

Basically a catalog.

Specialty tapes, personal letters. Oh, and items of clothing supposedly worn by

the women.

Clothing?

Underpanties. Used panties.

$40 a pair, and he's got quite a collection.

Billy Meade doing all that laundry, all those potential profits going right down

to the drain.

Wait a minute.

There's a camera in the bathroom.

Yep.

There are more than six cameras.

Okay, nothing.

So if it was about nothing, then why did you spend the night at your brother's?

I just couldn't face him.

Who fought with it?

What?

The fight. Did he do something or say anything, Meg?

Then what the hell were you fighting about? I told you.

Nothing.

Okay. Fine.

Whatever.

It isn't him.

It's me.

I'm freaking screwed up.

Well.

Jack has already figured that one out. Oh, thank you. Thanks a lot. You're

welcome.

Ginny, maybe you're just scared.

Scared of what?

I don't know.

Of losing him or blowing it or something.

Maybe.

I don't know why he stays with me.

I don't know why anybody does.

Well. You are screwed up.

The walk -around is self -destruct mode all the time, Jenny.

But you're worth it.

You're worth hanging in there for.

I'm sure Jackie figured that one out, too.

Right. Can you give me a minute?

Half the tech guys meet us there.

Hey, Nate.

I wanted to say thank you for driving Lily home the other night after work.

Oh, yeah. She was a little bit down.

Stopped and had a cup of coffee. Seemed to get better.

Well, I really appreciate it. Thank you.

Anytime.

We have one cup of coffee. That is a day. It wasn't a day.

Was it your idea?

Yeah.

You want me to pay?

Yeah, a couple bucks.

It wasn't a day.

You're seeing her again?

We didn't see each other the first time. You're really enjoying this, aren't

you?

So, uh... What did you guys talk about?

Our lives.

Anything in common?

What, you mean like I'm a cop and she's got a record?

No, but now that you mention it.

Look, you know, she's made mistakes. She paid for them. We all make mistakes.

What, you don't like her?

No, I do.

And she's Magda's sister, and I think she's doing a wonderful thing for Ben.

And I think she deserves our respect and support.

Great. So what's your problem?

Me? None.

I'm not dating her.

Can't do this.

You're so short on your desk here, buddy.

Let's see. Where did I put that?

Ah, there you go. Sorry about that.

That's awful when someone starts invading your privacy, screwing with

huh? You know, you'd save us a lot of time and a lot of trouble if you'd just

tell us where you kept the bathroom tape.

Excuse me?

Yeah.

I intend to cooperate fully.

Ah, there we go, Andrew.

Can I call you Andy?

Hey,

I said I intend to cooperate.

And we appreciate that.

So far, the charge is obstruction of justice.

You have the right to remain silent.

Now this is state -of -the -art.

Sound and motion activation, broadcast quality.

You know how much a rig like this would set you back?

There were two of them in the house, one in each bathroom.

We informed the local police about Plum Lane and Peach Street houses. We assumed

they had the same setup.

How did Wooten retrieve the data?

He paid a guy to come in the house when no one was home.

He'd take the disc, put in a new one, take it home, edit it, transfer it to

and there's your underwrapped club disc.

A private glimpse into the inner lives of the girls of Cherry Street.

I'm never going to be able to go into a ladies' room without examining the

ceiling first.

Got it.

Okay. No face, no hair color. We can ID the knife and the clothing.

We'll get an enlargement of the hand that's holding the knife.

Miss what?

Nobody knew about these cameras?

No one.

Karen, I need you to look.

How long is that camera and the one in my bathroom?

Probably since you moved in. Oh, my God.

Karen?

Who is he? Can you recognize anything?

These tapes they made of me and Amy and Rochelle. We can trace those tapes back

to the buyer, okay? And I promise you, we will get back most of them.

But not all.

So... Men out there.

Pervert.

Can see me whenever they want.

Do it again.

Who is he?

I'm gonna be sick.

Karen.

Tom, Amy's boyfriend has a sweatshirt like that.

He wears it all the time.

That incredible bastard!

How's it feel?

Who is this guy?

Look, I don't know who it is. I swear.

What about what he's wearing?

Wait, Tom wears a sweatshirt like that sometimes.

Yeah, according to Karen, too.

Karen knows about the bathroom cameras?

Yeah, she does.

What's wrong?

Karen was a virgin when she moved in.

She didn't date very much.

Mr. Wooten was on my case about her, and he said that unless there was more

accidents, she would have to go.

So I kind of threw her this party.

And? And, well, she didn't drink very much.

I kind of encouraged this guy I know to come on to her.

They did it in the bathroom.

And I know Mr. Wooten would be pissed, but he wouldn't.

I need a 408. Code 3.

That's right.

Female.

20s. Looks like she's clitoral.

Why'd you kill her, Tom?

Why not just break up with her?

How's Karen?

She's disabled. She lost a lot of blood.

I mean, how would any of us feel if we were 20?

Found out our first time had been videotaped and being sold all over the

How's it going in there?

I watched the recording. I went in my room and I went to bed.

See, our problem is no one can confirm that.

And meanwhile, your boots matched the print outside Amy's window.

With a gray hooded sweatshirt in your closet with Amy's blood all over it. I

didn't do it!

I don't know about those things. Somebody else must have... Somebody else

have been what?

Wearing your clothes?

What about your other roommates? Where were they?

Rick went to his girlfriend's, Darren. I'm not sure.

Darren was in his room.

No, he went out. That's not what he said. Then he's lying.

We saw him leave?

I heard his car start up.

How well did Darren know Amy?

Not as well as he wanted to. He tried to ask her out. She wasn't interested.

Give us a minute.

It's possible.

Darren uses the sweatshirt, hangs it back in Tom's closet.

And that would explain why Tom didn't wash it or get rid of the booze. I mean,

that bothered us a little. It also explains why Darren told us about Tom,

off the track. There's still no ironclad evidence linking Darren to the crime.

Or Tom, for that matter. He said he said.

Hey, check this out.

Lydia came through.

Darren was wearing a bandage like that the morning after the murder.

Go get him.

Derek, it's over.

All right.

Now!

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.

Go home.

What happened with Wooten?

Well, his next website's going to have to be from cell block A. He's looking at

8 to 10.

And Rochelle?

Probation, in exchange for her testimony against Wooten.

Justice is a beautiful thing.

I'll tell that to Karen and Amy's parents.

Well, you know, two blocks from here, women are dancing naked on tables for

tips. Is taking an internet shower any worse?

No, I think video is different. Once it's out there, you're not getting it

Night. Night.

You want to get dinner?

I can't.

I'm a date with a jerk.

I figure everybody deserves a second chance.

Just don't order the lobster.

Night. Night.

Hey, it's Nate.

What are you doing tonight?

If you don't like it, we can take it back.

figure out what our accent colors are.

Louise, huh?

Yep.

Hey, J .L .E.

What?

We have the same initials.

Jenny Louise Eckstein.

Jack Lawrence Ellis.

That's it, right?

I'm so sorry about last night.

This wasn't a mistake.

I just want you to be happy, Jenny.

And sometimes it feels like no matter what...

I do. You're just... not.

What's it gonna take?

Hi, Mom.

Oh, I didn't know anyone was here.

I like to come early.

My husband, he died three years ago.

I'm sorry.

He's my mom.

She died 23 years ago, the 8th of next month.

Oh.

She killed herself.

So young.

36 years old.
