Times are tough.

We all know that.

My job as mayor is to give you more for
that. More jobs, more services, more

peace and quiet so that you can live
your lives free of pollution, free of

tape, and free of crime.

And you deserve more.

Now, lest anyone say that I'm promising
pie in the sky, let me point out that

unlike my opponent, I not only promise,
I deliver.

Now I know what they do with the
restaurant leftovers.

Shh. These people are paying a thousand
bucks for this stuff. So? I paid 50

bucks for this waiter's outfit.

What a waste of a babysitter.

Come on, honey. We're here. Let's enjoy
ourselves.

You look like a million bucks.

Thanks.

I haven't worn this dress since the last
time we went out dancing.

I'm worth that anyway.

Why don't we sneak out of here right now
and go dancing?

You gotta stay.

You'll end in sport, remember?

Come on.

Honey, I don't know you.

Oh, I'm sorry.

When you smile, you look like Audrey
Hepburn.

Oh, thank you. Oh, thank you.

What are you drinking? I'm okay, really.
No, no, please, I insist.

No, I'm fine.

The lady says she's fine. She's fine.

Really now? And who might you be? I'm
Tony Scali.

Well, Mr. Scali, there's... Ah.

Excuse me, Mr. Scali. Mr. Scali?

I need a drink.

You okay?

Yeah, thanks.

I just love this dress.

In the mouth, obviously.

From the northern watershed of the
Mondelez Mountains.

Smoky.

With a pito con a ferro.

Glendronach. It's amazing.

You can distinguish Coke from Pepsi, I
suppose.

Sure. That.

I find amazing.

At last, a woman who appreciates fine
whiskey.

Excuse me, I couldn't help overhearing.

May I shake the hand of a fellow
connoisseur?

May I?

Len Fiddick.

You got it.

Voila.

Charles, baby. Right you are.

Bartender, your three best friends.

Come now.

No peeking.

My Portuguese grandfather used to quote
the great poet Pessoa.

In the land of bridges, the bridge is
more real than the shores it doth

So it is.

What is she talking about?

Oh, Don.

What are you going to have to look so
happy about?

Be right back.

Better be.

Boss?

You got here fast. What?

Sea level.

I'll talk to you later, Mona.

That

was

quick.

Thanks, Ronnie.

It's pretty messy in there.

She was getting in her car. Saw the
blood.

Called it in about 10, 15 minutes ago.

All right, let's see what we got.

Okay.

Hey. What?

This guy made a pass at Rachel not even
an hour ago.

You're kidding.

No, those look like razor cuts.

This guy hit on Rachel?

Don't worry, I got an alibi.

The mayor was putting me to sleep.

Why, with about a hundred other people.

Now, if we hurry, we can probably catch
this guy.

Yeah, that's the guy.

Picked up just a real good looker. They
let out maybe half an hour ago.

You think you could describe her?

Sure. She's not the kind you forget.

Brick. Real classy.

Big hair.

Blue dress that fit like a second skin.

Legs up to her armpit.

I thought it was getting real lucky.

All right, get everyone you got. Spread
them out. This woman could still be in

the area.

Hey, Tony.

Uh, Truesdale, wasn't he here for the
mayor's fundraiser? Hey, Shana, give me

minute. Look, we're going to need you to
come down to the precinct, help us put

together a picture of this woman, okay?
As soon as I get off. Did you get a look

at the killer? You're off now.

Come on, Shana, this is business.

Come on, Tony, I got a live shot at 11.
Give me a break.

What's the dope, Shana?

Truesdale really here for the mayor's
fundraiser?

Watch the news.

Eastbridge is a peaceful place where
people live safe, productive lives, free

from the scourge of big city crime.

Harrison Truesdale paid $1 ,000 to hear
Mayor Hinton say these words tonight.

Only moments later, he was savagely
murdered on the way to his car.

Have the police detained any suspects,
Shana?

No, then it seems the police are playing
this one very close to the chest.

I will say, however, this is the first
time I've seen Commissioner Scali at a

crime scene in a tuxedo.

Thank you, Shana.

Mayor Hinton's opponent, Clayton
Crandall, had a few choice words for the

Oh, I'm sure.

It's clear that the mayor is incapable
of providing a crime -free environment,

even for her own fundraiser.

All my future functions will be
protected with private security, so you

and hear me speak, free of fear.

And it won't cost you $1 ,000 either.

I wouldn't charge $1 ,000 either if my
wife owned all the pulp mills in upstate

New York. Come on, Louise.

The press is getting their jollies out
of this one. Tomorrow they'll find

someone else to make fun of. Crandall's
not going to let this one drop.

He'll Willie Horton me to death with it.
I've already got the weekend shifts

working on this one, and first thing
Monday I'm going to have every available

man working on the case.

We can't wait until Monday.

By Monday I'll have dropped three
points, maybe five.

I'm already over budget this month.

I'll find the money. You find the
killer.

If you want to make a case for a bigger
budget, this is your chance.

I know her.

What's her name?

Leah Shriver.

No, man.

It's Courtney Cox.

How are we supposed to ID anybody with
this? All right, you guys, listen up.

I know it's Sunday and we all got things
we'd rather be doing, but let me put it

to you this way.

If you want squad cars, just start in
the winter.

If you want radios that don't cut out on
you...

If you want a squad room with lockers
that lock and showers that shower, then

let's find this woman.

Check all the upscale bars.

Check hairdressers. Check anything in
town that's remotely British.

Airlines, trade reps, car shows.

You're late for something again.

Oh, uh, Paulie, anybody turns up
anything, you call me. Anything at all.

Hey, over here.

Hey, Karen.

Hey.

Good to see you. Looks right to you.

Great, huh?

That's how you're supposed to look
coming from Florida.

The car's over here. Yeah, yeah, I know.
I saw you drive by.

Right, of course.

Fine.

Hey, can you relax?

We're a big -time police department.
We've got patrol cars and everything.

That's old habit.

It looks like a nice town, nice safe
place to live.

Some days more than others.

Oh, you got a case?

I always got a case.

Come on, let me know. Tell me, tell me.
You thought you were retired.

What? You know what cops like me do
after we retire, huh? We spend our time

showing up, cops are still working.

I may take you up on that one.

Anytime, anytime.

When are you going to get older? The
same time you start telling the truth.

shit.

Hey, you've got to be David.

Huh? Yeah, I'm Terrence Boyle. You don't
remember me.

Heck, I don't.

Mom and Dad talk about you all the time.
They do?

Absolutely. How about that?

Now, I have to run him over to the
country club. He's taking golf lessons

some friends.

Golf? Yeah.

Samantha Mason asked him. Oh, golf.

See you later.

Hey, let me take you to your room. Yeah,
yeah, yeah.

And this is Irish pasta.

I learned after moving to Florida that
if you wanted good pasta, you had to

it yourself.

Tony's parents just love it down in
Florida.

Oh, yeah?

How long have you been down there?

A little over a year. Wait.

It loses its charm.

I could never understand what Cora saw
in that play.

It's so... flat.

I'm really sorry that we missed the
funeral.

Yeah, well, so did everybody else in New
York.

That storm wiped out the whole East
Coast.

I appreciated your letter, though.

I, uh...

Took her out to the cemetery and read it
to Cora.

You know how we felt about her.

Yeah, well, she felt the same way.

Well, come on, come on, eat the pasta,
huh?

I look upon leftovers as a sign of
rejection.

Hey,

you okay?

Oh, yeah, sure.

Yeah, I have trouble sleeping sometimes.

Cop movies? You still watching cop
movies? Yeah, I know. I can't get enough

them. Never good.

Everything from Little Caesar to Evil
Weapon 345.

Give me a romantic comedy every time.
Yeah, but you know what I love most of

They're so sure that they're going to
solve the crime.

Why shouldn't they be? They've already
read the last page of the script.

You know, just once I'd like to see him
be like you were on your first day at

homicide. You mean so nervous I felt
like I was going to throw up? Yeah.

You remember what I told you?

Sure, you said, kid, don't worry, if you
screw up on the job, I'll adopt you.

Yeah, I would have, too.

Yeah, you turned out just fine.

So,

how's retirement agreeing with you?

Oh, uh, I had like a $2 stay.

That's one of the reasons why I came up
to busy.

Well, it's not that I need a job, a
regular job.

But I was hoping that maybe you might
need a

consultant, some...

kind, you know, or maybe just a little
part -time thing like that, you know,

like... See,

it isn't that I need a large salary. I
got my pension, you know, and my save.

Oh, let me think on it for a while.

Look,

you can tell she's lying through her
teeth.

I'm going to go

back to bed. Good night.

See you in the morning.

Yeah, sleep good.

The mayor called me first thing this
morning. Don't tell me she loses the

election. It's awful.

Something like that. Kind of nice having
all that power.

Thank you so, so much. Hotel security
found him. If I'm just passing on the

word.

I'm so embarrassed. I mean, maybe I left
the keys in the ignition. I usually

never do that.

That's the way they found it.

It counts of me.

Is it all right?

I don't know. You should check it over
when you pick it up.

Yes, of course.

Okay,

thank you. Thank you. It's a good idea.

Checking all of Truesdale's known
associates.

Anybody he's had business dealings with.

He married?

Divorced three times.

Checked the ex -wives.

Maybe he missed a couple of alimony
payments.

And anyone he might have been dating.
Maybe there were some angry boyfriends.

Hey, hey. That sure beats the old age
seven.

Not really. They just paint it more
often.

Harry Boyle, this is Ronnie Lopez.

Hey, nice to meet you. Yeah, you're
absolutely right.

Well, I thought maybe I'd have time for
lunch.

Sure, if you don't mind, it's standing
up. Just like old times.

I'll let you know how those names check
out, all right, boss?

Thanks, Ronnie.

Boss?

Boss?

Yeah, as in bureaucracy, you ought to
stop someplace.

Boss!

A collector?

I'm thinking about it.

You gotta think.

Don't.

It's for life.

The way to say this is my body.

There's no other like it.

No other person inside it but me.

Never heard it stated better. Don't
move.

There.

You do have the gift.

Proud to wear your art, sir.

Yeah, well, you slip your Rolex on his
gun.

Oh, that has grace, class.

It's your style.

I was thinking about putting it here.

Perfect.

Harvest, the lady would like a tattoo.

My treat.

Insist.

Let me start your collection.

Are you sure about this now?

It's gonna feel like you stuck your boob
in a wasp nest.

Make the rose small and black.

And make the thorns big and sharp.

You want fast?

You call me?

Hey, still dealing coffee cups around on
a crime scene there, Pence?

Without you to ride my ass, what do you
think?

Tony told me you were coming to visit.
Yeah, I had to find out if he remembered

anything that I taught him. Nah, he
makes it up as he goes along. You guys

through with this stand -up. You want to
let me know what we got here?

Malcolm Smithfield, hot shot stockbroker
with a biker fantasy.

Should have stuck the junk bars.

Whoa, whoa, wait a minute.

Tony.

I want you to look at these scratches.

Yeah.

Finger distance.

Yeah, four on each side.

Bruises, deep cut on each side.

Thumbnails, where the thumbs would be.

You think that could have happened
before he got on the bike? No, no

Not with the way his eyes are gouged
out.

All right, Paul, check the scene inch by
inch. We've got a murder here.

Someone must have been on the back of
the bike with him, jumped off when he

slowed down. I'll check out any friends
he might have had, or non -friends.

Right. And check the state police for
dangerous vagrants, roadside killings,

other places.

What have we got here, Tony?

Oh, come on. I thought we had this place
robed off. I thought I heard the word

murder. Come by the precinct when we're
done here. Two murders back to back. Are

we in the grip of a crime wave here?

Hey, Tony, here, huh?

Detective Pentangeli, will you please
escort these fine protectors of the

interest out of our restricted area?

Come on, Shane.

You know better. Let's go.

What do you make of this, huh?

Skin's still irritated.

Could be fresh.

Uh -huh.

Tattoo Paula?

Uh -huh.

Nice to have you visiting. Nice to be
here.

What's this I hear about two murders?

Night before last. Guy at a hotel
parking lot.

Same killer?

M .O.'s completely different.

Well, I was doing serial killing down in
Florida. I learned that it's not the

difference that counts.

It's the similarities.

Okay.

They were both older men. Well to do.
Anything else?

Not so far.

Okay, then. I'll check out this Evel
Knievel wannabe, and then I'll hang out

with Paulie for a while, and maybe we
can check into some tattoo parlor. All

right. Help yourself.

Thank you.

a crisis of confidence.

Prominent Eastbridge citizens are being
slaughtered in public. We don't trust

our public officials and we don't feel
safe in our homes.

Scali. Hi, honey. You real busy?

Busy enough. There was another killing.

I know. I heard.

Well, you think you're getting stuck at
the office forever?

I shouldn't be. We've got people
working.

To tell you the truth, dinner's not
ready and I have all these math tests to

grade. Do you think you could pick up
David at the country club on your way

home? Absolutely.

You sure it's no trouble?

Positive. You're a dog.

Hey, Nada.

I'll see you at home.

Gally. Goyle here. You'll never guess
where I'm calling from.

Tattoo Paula? Good guess. Me and Tommy.

You ought to make it a threesome.

121 Franklin.

All right, I'm on my way.

Hey, Tony.

Tony, Arvis here.

Arvis, Tony.

Arvis is some remarkable artiste.

Do I know you?

I don't think so.

I ever do you?

Of all the people you've never done,
trust me, I'm number one on your list.

What do we got?

Arvis here did the victim's tattoo.

A fine chain of barbed wire around the
left wrist.

I charge by the hour for that one.

Arvis, listen, tell him who else you
did, huh?

Oh, yeah, I picked up this babe.

Young woman.

Pretty. I said, a babe.

I already tried that.

No go.

Nah. This one don't look like no one
would have a rose tattooed on her boob.

Well, I'd like to bring in a police
artist. Maybe he can help put together a

likeness. Same guy did that piece of
crap?

Could be a waste of time, huh? Tony,
Tony, are the theories an artist?

Sure.

Stupid of me. Sorry.

Do you think you could draw a likeness
of the woman you tattooed?

She'll jump right off the page, man.

Skin of paper, it's all the same.

Hello

there.

Hi.

I'm Vicki Day, new personal trainer for
some of the guys.

They don't have you down.

Gosh, they should. Didn't they call?

Not since I've been here.

Late already.

It's my first day.

How about if I get them to call you when
I get up there?

Please?

Okay, go ahead.

You're a funny guy.

Hey man,

when you want to learn how to play real
golf, you let me know.

Wait, I'll show you this dumbass.

It's that guy.

I've forgotten what jerks 14 -year -olds
are.

They're just trying to impress the girl.

She's pretty, don't you think?

Oh, my son certainly seems to think so.

Oh, he's one of the jerks.

That's not what I meant.

Um, I mean, I'm sure you're very proud
of them.

I sure am.

Hey, sorry about that.

I'll see you guys later.

Okay.

Bye. See you guys.

Come on, David.

You didn't have to come.

I could have gotten a ride with
Samantha.

Are you stuck with your old man?

I just don't want to be an
inconvenience. I'm very impressed by

of consideration.

Get in the car.

I was thinking, as a police
commissioner, you should hit him up for

car.

What's wrong with this car?

I don't know.

Kind of like a box on wheels.

And you'd like to see me in something
slicker?

Nothing wrong with slick.

This wouldn't have anything to do with
you getting your license next year.

What would make you think that?

Just driving a slicker car doesn't make
you slicker.

Doesn't hurt.

Doesn't help.

Look, you're just saying that because
you don't care whether you're slick or

not.

True enough.

But any car I had, you couldn't drive
anyway.

I couldn't.

Of course not. This is city property.

You'll be driving your mom's car.

Oh.

You know, mom's been driving that heat
for a long time. Maybe you should trade

it in and get, like, a four -wheel drive
type vehicle.

What's wrong with right here?

They'll see us.

Come on. Who?

Victim's head was bashed in.

We found the bloody golf club.

Belonged to the victim.

No prints.

Any foot impressions?

Too many.

This place was well trampled on before
we got here.

No sign of a struggle.

I'll say there's no sign of a struggle.

Yeah, with his pants around his knees.

He must have come back here to make a
little whoopee.

I'll ask around, see if there were any
female strangers in the area.

He didn't come out here to play whoopee
by himself.

Hey, lookie here.

One single footprint.

Yeah, deep.

Yeah, rough around the edges.

Yeah, like he was hopping around on one
foot trying to work his pants off. Yeah,

and then wham! He goes down.

Yeah, check that blood spatter. The
killer stood right back here.

Well, and that would be the first blow.

Came in from the side like so.

From the angle of it, it looks like the
killer was shorter than him.

Uh -huh.

Eddie, come around this way.

Don't walk in that area.

Well, another older man, probably with a
woman. You're going to look pretty

smart. I always look pretty smart.

Why can't they get these people out of
here?

Mayor?

I want a full report.

All right, Louise, you got your photo
up. Now you mind if we do our jobs,

please? No one would be more thrilled if
you did your job.

Where do we stand?

Look, as soon as we're finished here,
I'll let you know.

Tony, I got something here.

Guard at the front gate says he let an
unknown woman onto the grounds yesterday

afternoon. Said she was a personal
trainer.

Description? Short blonde hair,
wraparound sunglasses, high -pitched

voice. You know, like those trainers on
TV.

Any distinguishing marks? I mean, scars,
birthmarks?

Yeah. She had a tattoo right about here.

So you were right.

Who are you?

This is an old friend of mine, Terry
Boyle from NYPD. He's consulting on the

case. Yeah, I work with some serial
killers out in Florida.

Any contact with the FBI Behavioral
Science Unit?

Yeah, plenty.

What do you write about?

Well, ma 'am, I just said they might
consider similarities.

See, until now we weren't sure whether
we had a serial situation.

Now we know.

Mr. Boyle, a delight having you here,
and I hope you'll hang around.

It helps having a specialist, doesn't
it?

Put short blonde hair on the biker pic.
Spread it around. Maybe we'll find out

something more.

Keep it up, Tony.

Did the guard recognize the car?

He said it was a gray four -door, maybe
a year or two old. Well, let's try to

get a fix on the car.

Damn it. Why? Why? I talked to this girl
yesterday, right over there. She was

right in front of me.

Got a young woman, late 20s, slim,
medium height, attractive.

She's good at disguises. She might be an
actress.

Yeah. Yeah, each time she kills, she's
like she's playing another role.

Well, that's highly atypical of a serial
killer. Serials usually take the same M

.O., don't they? You ever heard of one
who hasn't got their own signature? No,

not until now.

Here, have a seat.

Do you have any idea what we can do to
trip her up?

Well, she's obviously very intelligent.

These murders may be irrational, but
they're not self -destructive acts.

She's not going to give herself away.

Yeah, when we do catch her, she'll
probably be the shy type where the

can't believe that she could ever cause
so much trouble.

Are you telling me that we just have to
get lucky?

Something like that.

Do you have any other questions?

No, that'll do it.

I'd like to be of assistance.

We give him the facts and he tosses us
the luck.

Can you blame him?

No, no.

But we're going to make ourselves black
and blue hitting on the same old facts.

How's about we go and get some new ones?

Good idea.

Mrs. Grady reported a bullet hitting a
fence the night of the first murder.

That's old man Parker next door,
shooting squirrels with a .22.

Somebody plowed the stop sign on Peach
and Willoughby. How many times did you

put that sign up from last year? Three,
four?

Here's a woman reports her dog missing.
Turns up, a winner at the kennel club.

Dog didn't have multiple stab wounds,
did it?

How can a woman lose a prize winning
pooch like that? I bet it eats off her

china, sleeps in a bed.

Come to think of it, I had one kind of
like that.

Only no dog.

A woman comes in here and says she lost
her car.

Almost like she put it down somewhere
and couldn't find it. We got a stack of

theft reports.

No, this was different.

She seemed kind of confused.

There's something about it.

There it is. It showed up at the
Stanfield Hotel the morning after the

Hey, she drove a gray four -door just
like they saw at the country club.

Her age is about right. What did she
look like?

Really shy.

Almost like if you didn't step on her,
you wouldn't know she was there.

Hey, here she is.

Don't spook her.

Hey!

Hey! Hey!

We've got an accident at 4th and
Bigelow. It's going to tie up traffic

Take alternate route through downtown.

Now the news desk, if they get their
butts down, you're stacked.

They've got a primo piece of tape for
the 10 o 'clock show.

We're looking at a foot chase heading
into the park.

I'm too old for this.

You're too old for this.

The leg's on the other side.

You stay here. Keep it from doubling
back. I'm going to cut her off.

Yeah, right.

for obstruction of justice.

Here, go ahead and arrest me. If you
look, you get a good shot of this.

If you think reporting the news is
interfering in your business, go ahead,

me up.

Are you saying you lost the suspect?

Was this a suspect in the multiple
murders?

I should have run her in.

No.

You did right to walk up. There's got to
be a way to keep them from interfering.

Honey, they won't stop.

You know they won't stop.

You're right.

I know.

Wouldn't it be nice if they just laid
off for a little while?

Don't tell me you've been talking to
Searchlight News.

They wanted a comment.

Tony, can't you remember there's an
election coming up? Look, I signed on to

a police commissioner, not a campaign
manager.

Well, you gave them their lead.

Commissioner threatens press.

I can just see the pic now.

The little brunette with her arms out
for cuffing. I was just trying to do my

job. I know that.

But if I back you, the media's going to
gabble on about nothing but how their

lily -white purity's been defiled by
jackbooted thugs in my administration.

By the time they get off it, the
election's going to be over.

Louise, where are you headed with this?

What I want is to get you out of the
line of fire.

What you want is to win the election.

Well, the two things are not mutually
exclusive.

I want to put your friend in charge.

What's his name?

Boyle? You want to put Boyle in charge?

Yeah, he's perfect.

He's had experience in this kind of
thing. But there's no precedent for this

kind of thing. This is totally
irregular.

Fine. It'll look like we're pulling out
all the stops to catch the killer.

You're just so close to nailing her.

This won't do anything to slow that
down. Except it's a major slap in the

to my department, Louise.

It's certainly not intended that way.

Tony, it's not personal.

It's politics.

Yeah.

in this world or the next.

You've got to do it.

No, and help them kick your ass, kick
you out. No, forget it.

Look, you said one thing right.

This isn't about me. It's about catching
a murderer.

Look, if you say no, she's just going to
put someone else in, and I just assume

it'd be you. No, no way, no.

Same kind of crap that I had to put up
with out in St. Petersburg.

The DA's bucking for governor, so we
want some perp's head on a platter, and

when I don't give it to him, he
substitutes mine.

That's what got you off the force? Yeah,
booted me right into retirement.

Look, Terry, I need for you to do this
for me.

You need me to...

Where does some hack politician get off
deserving

this kind of loyalty, huh?

It's not for her.

It's for three murder victims.

So I'm in charge of this investigation.
I can do whatever I want, right?

Whatever you think will further the
investigation.

Good. I want Tony working with me.

If you want to keep Tony involved, I
have no problem with that.

But you handle all the dealings with the
press.

No, that's the other thing. I don't talk
to the press. It's part of the job. If

they misquote me, I sound like a racist,
sexist, hooligan pig.

And if they quote me accurately, it's
worse.

Have a nice day.

Are you Emily Daniels?

You're not from the insurance company,
are you? That would be too fast.

Insurance?

No, we're from the police department.

Yes, there's been a little trouble in
the area. We're just checking things

It's purely routine.

Well, okay.

Come in.

You were expecting an insurance agent?

I just returned from the hospital. I
thought you might be investigating my

claim. Are you all right?

No, I'll be fine. Just a little
accident.

What happened?

Well, I burned myself rather badly, but
it's silly of me.

How did it happen?

Well, one of those stupid household
accidents, I suppose.

How can I help you?

Have you ever seen this woman before?

She looks kind of familiar.

Maybe I passed her in the street or
something.

Is it possible that she lives in the
building?

Oh, I don't know. It's a very big
building.

If you don't mind me saying, that's a
very nice hairdo you have.

Oh, thank you.

Do you ever wear it differently?

I mean, do you ever wear it long?

The reason why I'm asking is my wife
keeps talking about cutting it that way.

I was never crazy about the idea, but if
it comes out like yours... Oh, well,

you know, I just got it cut like this.

Personally, I find it a little short.

Hey, hey, there's got to be a story
behind this, huh?

Well, that was my father's.

He died just last month, and I haven't
had a chance to do anything with it yet.

Oh, yeah, sure.

I mean, it's really nice that you got
something like this, something that he

used day in and day out to remind you of
him.

Have you got the razor?

I did.

I seem to have misplaced it. Would you
like us to help you? Thank you very much

for your time.

Yeah.

You will watch out for that burn.

And if you happen to remember where you
saw the woman before, please give us a

call.

Mm -hmm. Thank you.

Missing razor? Flat brown sunglasses.

She looked like the woman you spoke to
at the country club, huh, Frank? I

couldn't swear to it.

Voice was completely different.

Yep,

she was in here.

Dr. Ross, didn't you see a young woman
this morning about a burn?

You don't need that. I've seen you on
the news.

Oh, this woman you treated, did she
really burn herself?

Severely. She'll need grafts. She's
lucky, though. It was a relatively small

area. Any evidence of a tattoo?

That's impossible to tell. How did it
happen?

Now, that was the odd part. She didn't
seem to know. I mean, the burn was

by boiling water, but she didn't have
the vaguest idea how she poured boiling

water on herself.

No, Daniel was a contender. Except for
one thing. She doesn't act like she did

it. So she's a good actor.

Look, I had a case a few years back, a
guy with two personalities. One didn't

know what the other was doing. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, they all say that. Listen,

suddenly it was dark, and then when I
came out of it, there was a .45 in my

hand, and my boyfriend had six slugs in
his chest. No, this guy was genuinely

two different people.

Tony, one, two, six.

Daniels is my pick.

If we toss her a place, I'll bet we come
up with something.

And if we don't, then we've spooked her
for good. I say we put a tail on her and

wait for her to make a move.

Tony, Tony, Tony, you don't have all the
time in the world.

You need a perp right now. We can't take
the chance of tipping her off.

I say that we play the hand we're dealt
with today.

Two weeks from now, you could be out of
a job.

I say we wait.

Okay. Okay, okay.

We'll put a tag on her.

Maybe we'll get a break.

We'll certainly do for one.

Yeah.

D3 Lopez, suspect leaving apartment.

We'll follow on foot.

Copy.

Please don't follow me around.

Didn't anyone ever tell you that's rude?

Well, the good news is that the lady of
a thousand personalities hasn't killed

anyone today. The bad news is that she
made her tail.

Lopez? He followed her into a
supermarket. She rammed him with a

So what? He has bruised buns and wounded
pride.

But the point is, we're blown.

So I guess it's plan B. How soon can you
get a search warrant?

Soon enough.

How many people do you think we're going
to need?

We? We? What do you mean, we? This is
all your gig.

Wait a minute. You're in charge of this
investigation. I find anything, they're

going to have cameras all over me.

Exactly damn right. Exactly as it should
be.

Tony, you didn't want to play politics,
but as long as they're going to drag you

onto the field, you might as well play a
little offense, huh?

Maybe you're right.

Oh, and don't forget Rule 47A. No matter
how arrogant they are, there's no place

that they can hide something that we
haven't already looked at one time or

another.

Hmm?

This is a warrant to search your
premises, Miss Daniels.

Why? We're looking for evidence of a
crime.

You think that I committed a crime?

We're looking for evidence one way or
the other.

Can I call my lawyer?

Of course, but that won't stop the
search.

Those books are alphabetized by author.

running clothes that fit the description
the blue dress recently dry clean just

like the bartender described what about
shoes shoes running shoes

check for traces of blood yeah what it
means is they can go through your entire

apartment you sign this please it's an
inventory list of the things we're

with us did you find what you're looking
for is there something we missed

Sure, son.

What is it?

It's a straight razor.

What?

We were hoping that you'd be able to ID
this blood for us. I can give you a

blood typing.

DNA will take a little longer, though.
The victim's blood type was AB negative.

Lucky break. It's the rarest type there
is. We've got about 200 units of blood

here. I doubt that we've got two that
are AB negative.

Now, if we get a match for A and a match
for B, then it's AB.

How can you tell it's a match?

It's the blood clumps together.

Yes for B.

Now for RH, positive or negative.

Here it is.

Can I have a look? Sure.

How do you know if it's negative or
positive?

Same as the blood typing.

Clumping is positive. But if the blood
cells are evenly spread, it's negative.

Negative.

The blood type is AB negative. We've got
it.

Eastbridge finds itself owing a giant
debt of gratitude to Commissioner Tony

Scali.

Are you charging her with all the
murders, sir? When are you going to

Commissioner Scali, how did you break
the case?

I didn't break any case.

But word is, you were the one who found
the decisive evidence.

This case was cracked by a group of
highly trained professionals working

together. But weren't you the one who...
You know what your trouble is, Shana?

You're always looking for a hero or a
goat.

Now, that might make for a great copy,
but it doesn't reflect the way the job

really done.

The fact of the matter is we're just a
bunch of hardworking people who are

trying to keep this a decent place to
live. Exactly how do you plan to do

What kind of sentence do you expect for
the girl, sir? The girl is in charge of

all of this.

Now that this horrible crime has been
put behind us, this election campaign

focus on the real issues confronting
this city.

Yeah, like re -electing Madame May. Like
the re -election of the proven

leadership and expertise of my
administration.

As Commissioner Scali said... We're hard
-working pros.

...in the name of hard -working
professionals.

Serving the public.

Oh,

you have got Mayor Speak -Not.

Here, now, boy, you begin to think like
bull.

Well, here's to the most dedicated
citizen.

To east of Westbridge.

Well, you have to forgive me, gentlemen.

I have the responsibility for improving
the educational level of our entire

country. Oh, well.

In other words, it's time for the
teacher to go to sleep.

Good night, love. Good night.

Okay, Tony.

Just a few minutes, Rachel, okay?

Hey.

Hey, you feel good.

Yeah, I do.

You still carry a case around in your
stomach?

Not so much anymore. It's sort of moved
around to my back. Yeah, me too, me too.

You know, it used to be when I was
working on a case, there'd be a knot

my shoulder blades the size of a rocket
you're brawling.

And then, when the case broke, it'd just
dissolve away.

Like you put an elk or something in a
glass of water.

You know, it's funny the way the mind
works.

And we tossed that woman's apartment.

Couldn't find a thing.

I'm out the door. I'm on the way out.
And bing. I remember that bus that we

in the Bronx with that accountant's wife
that was dealing coke on the side. You

remember that?

Oh, yeah, yeah. The one who was so upset
at us because we were daring to waste

her time.

Uh -huh. And she used to keep her stash
in the detergent. Yeah.

Well, it just popped back into my mind.
Well, everything's back there in the old

computer, you know.

It's funny how it kicked in like that.
Well, it's a good thing it did.

I mean, got the mayor off your back.

Ah, Louise is okay. She's always backed
me up in her own way. She would have

dumped you in a minute. She would have
tossed you to the wolves and laughed as

they were feeding on your bones. Oh,
she's not like that. They're all like

What do you mean? They're all like that.

34 damn years.

Dumped. Washed away. Wiped away.

With one damn phone call.

And they would have done exactly the
same thing to you, too, except they

get the chance.

Jeez.

Remember the expression on that woman's
face, that housewife's face, when you

found her stash?

She started screaming about the
Colombian cartel. They're going to carve

with a rusty blade.

Remember?

Oh, boy.

That made me feel good running her in
like that.

Almost as good as it feels right now.

Well, hey, come on. You want to help me
finish this, huh?

I don't think so.

Your case is solved, but I have a few I
have to get to tomorrow.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bye, pal. Good night.
Good night.

Are you okay?

Sure. Just having trouble going to bed.

I thought you'd conk right out tonight.

Me too.

You remember when David tried out for
Little League and he had that coach who

had been in the minors and he was going
to make his kid into a big leaguer no

matter what? You remember that?

Yeah, that was very upsetting.

That's the way I felt with Boyle
tonight.

Like he was living through me.

I don't think this has to do with Boyle.

You're just not used to being the hero
for once.

Why am I the hero, huh?

Why did I find the razor, not Boyle?

Because you did the search.

And whose idea was that?

Terry's, and a very good idea. Well, you
know that.

Yeah, too good.

And where do I find the razor?

Same place I found dope with Boyle at
one of our biggest cases.

What are you saying?

I'm saying somehow Terry knew I'd look
there.

Now, Tony, you broke this case. You got
a clean win.

Why are you having so much trouble
taking yes for an answer?

I don't buy it.

Hey.

Who's the worrier in this family?

You are.

Am I worried about them?

No.

Then go to sleep.

You can agonize about it in the morning.

No, the mere Papadakis was there any
time she was there. But she did go out.

went to the store. Yeah, and I was on
the tail the whole time.

You followed her.

What?

What I need to know, Charlie, is did
Boyle come in here yesterday?

Yeah, he was looking to get into the
Truesdale car.

Say, I need to double -check a few
things.

How'd you know?

Unlucky guess.

Sometimes I see people come and go,
sure.

Did you see an old man, medium build,
who doesn't belong to the building

slipping in or out in the last couple of
days?

No.

But he could have.

I'm just a super.

If I see anyone, it's an accident.

Do you live at the Hampton Court
apartment at 1243 North Dickmore?

I do.

Have you ever cut anyone with a razor?

No. Have you ever killed anyone?

No.

Have you ever attacked anyone on a
motorcycle?

No. Excuse me.

We have to talk.

The polygraph was her idea.

She is a world -class liar.

Tell me something, Harry.

That first day... Yeah?

When you first left the apartment...
Yeah?

Did anyone go back up there?

No. No one from the department?

No. Like I said, no. Check the logs.

When she left the apartment, Lopez
followed her. Anybody could have went

there. Yeah, so what?

So...

You didn't go over there.

Tony, what is this all about?

There's an ATM machine across the street
from my place.

So what?

So it has a surveillance camera, you
jerk.

First time when he comes out, see?

Pick up a straight razor at some pawn
shop, and you get the blood out of

Truesdale's car.

This is crazy.

I checked.

That seat was soaked. It's still wet.

Why are you doing this?

I want you to tell me the truth.

We both know she's guilty. Not until the
jury says so. All you've got to do is

keep your mouth shut.

Oh, man, what are you saying?

I'm saying help yourself.

Let others help you. I don't need that
kind of help. Oh, yes, you do.

Do you know what would have happened if
you hadn't nailed her? I told you.

This is not like what happened to you in
Florida.

This male will stand behind me when it
counts. Right.

Because it's easier to stab you from
back there.

You better leave, Terry.

Leave right now.

Ladies and gentlemen, this false arrest,
this travesty of justice is a blatant

ploy by Desperate Mayor and her
commissioner to manipulate the election.

It will be the mandate of our office to
protect the rights of people like Miss

Daniels here.

How could you do this to me? Oh, Louise,
this isn't about you. It's about

tainted evidence.

Don't make me wait till after the
election to get noble.

I did what I had to do and you do what
you have to do. Yeah, right. Like I'm

really going to fire you after spending
the last 24 hours sending a walk on

water.

I would like to commend Commissioner
Scali's decision and his boldness and

integrity. And I'm proud to support his
decision. We're an administration that

believes in the rule of law above all.

Commissioner Scali, will there be any
disciplinary action? action taken

the police officers?

Will there be any suspensions?

There'll be a full and complete
investigation.

If any charges are appropriate, they'll
be brought.

In the meantime, the mistake has been
corrected. Thank you very much. That's

all.

Terry.

It's lemon chicken.

I'm sorry, Rach. I gotta go.

Go where?

Back to Florida.

Tonight? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, maybe
tonight.

How come you're rushing off?

I, uh... Something came up. Terry has to
get back.

Yeah, I gotta get back.

We'll have some chicken at least.

Terry has to go now.

The cab's waiting for him. Yeah, I gotta
go.

You can drive him after dinner?

Um... Maybe... Maybe he has other...
Yeah, I got other plans, baby.

Yeah.

It's real, real nice renewing our
acquaintance. Me too.

I never had a son.

Rachel.

You, uh, you can keep them fat and
fatty, will you?

I'll try my best.

Go on.

Uh, what?

Whatever you think of me, I was doing it
for you.

I know.

It still doesn't help.

Please spare the lectures. I've been
lectured by experts.

Fair enough. Just do me a favor.

Don't leave town for a couple of days.

For what?

So if I turn something up, I don't have
to extradite you. You're not going to

turn up anything.

Don't bet on it.

Just like that.

You're going to forget all the years we
had?

I remember them.

You're the one who forgot the rules.

You don't get it, do you? They changed
the rules.

Not for me.

You don't adapt, they're going to eat
you for breakfast.

I can live with that. Yeah, but not what
I did. No.

When in the hell did you get so
righteous?

I was always that way, Perry.

I thought you knew me better than that.

You want to bust me?

I'll be at the motel on Route 35.

You got two days.

After that, you can extra diet up your
kazoo.

Look, I've been staring at all of these
and thinking, what if they're different

women, but they're all still Emily
Daniels?

Let me explain. A couple of years ago, I
had this case.

Guy, it was like he was two different
people.

Is it possible that Emily Daniels is a
multiple personality?

Could be.

If she was a multiple personality,
wouldn't she think she's innocent?

I mean...

She wouldn't have any recollection of
doing the crimes, right?

Possibly not.

Multiples are usually severely abused as
children. Their world is unbearable, so

they invent whole new lives to get away
from it.

So to get to the truth, I've got to
bring out the murderer's personality?

No, not necessarily.

Multiples usually have a caretaker
personality.

It's one that knows what all the others
are doing.

Often it's a little child, since that's
when the multiple was last a fully

integrated human being.

Well, how do I reach this?

caretaker personality. Is this some sort
of trigger?

It could be. It's a sound, a smell.

Something associated with the childhood,
most likely.

Thanks, Doc. Thanks very much.

My lawyer said I didn't have to talk to
you. Well, you don't.

You have no legal right to be here.

Ms. Daniels, I'm the one who protected
your legal rights by letting you go.

I didn't kill anyone.

I know that.

Now, what's this about?

Well, first off, I wanted to apologize
for the way this case has been handled.

I can't go into a store to buy a quart
of milk. People look at me like I'm a

monster.

Are these you folks?

Yes.

This must be very hard on your mom, huh?

Where were they here? It looks like a
marina.

Well, what does it matter?

Why are you here?

I told you.

I wanted to see if I could make up for
the way you've been treated.

How's the burn?

Oh, the doctors say that it's doing as
well as they could expect.

I'll need a graft.

Oh, I'm sorry. That's too bad.

If you think you can keep me from suing
the city, well, I, you know, you'll have

to talk to my lawyer.

Still haven't figured out what to do
with this, huh? Please don't touch it.

Oh, that smells wonderful.

Must remind you of your father. Oh, that
must feel great.

Please don't.

Please. Well, try it yourself.

who am i talking to uh my name is
jessica and

i have to go to the bathroom

Did you find what you need?

Not about you.

Look, Emily Daniels is a multiple
personality.

So you were right, so?

There are four other personalities,
three of whom are killers. And one of

killers is about to emerge again.

Oh, fine, fine.

You put a tail on her long enough.

I wish she'll make her move, maybe.

As you pointed out before, I'd rather
not wait.

See, when the killers come out, they go
after older men. Think about the other

victims.

You need a decoy, huh?

Well,

not me, my buckhole, not me. You know,
she's already seen me.

Emily has seen you.

But I'm willing to bet the other
personalities haven't. You'd make that

Yes. And put my life at risk?

Look,

if you don't want to help, I understand.

I thought you knew me.

Better than that.

Speak to me, Lopez.

She's on the move.

Okay, boss, I think this is it.

Fish house restaurant.

Roger, we're on our way.

Excuse me.

Do you have a light?

Oh, no, I'm terribly sorry. I don't. I
stopped smoking a long time ago.

Are you waiting for someone?

No. Personally, I hate to eat alone.

I always feel that people are staring at
me thinking, well, he stood up again.

I know what you mean.

How about if we sat at the same table
and ate alone?

If it makes you feel more comfortable.

You're British, aren't you?

Yes, I thought so.

Yes, well, that's my mother country,
too. I came over when I was a baby.

But I wish I could have kept your
delightful accent.

It's lovely to hear it again.

Be some piece of work.

Thank you.

Oh, dear.

What is it? Oh, this coffee. Cheap,
stale beans, inadequately roasted.

I've tasted better.

Impossible to get a decent, first -rate
cup of coffee in this town, wouldn't you

say?

Very hard to find. Yeah.

Do you know what I do?

No, no, don't you laugh. Don't laugh.

I have the green beans flown up from
Costa Rica, Colombia, and I roast them

myself.

Oh, the aroma. The sweet scent of
roasting coffee is just on a... A guy

drink mud and not know the difference.

Anything worthwhile is worth caring for.

Wouldn't you agree?

Why don't you stop up at my place and
I'll brew you the perfect

cup of coffee.

That's very generous of you.

Luscious.

Full -bodied, you've never tasted
anything like it.

I promise.

Let me freshen up.

Excuse me.

At the tone,

the time will be... Oh, sorry, I'll be
delayed this afternoon.

You really ought to wear a better
tailored suit.

What are you, my dear, the fashion
police?

Let's get out of here.

Sure, whatever you say.

Let's clear the game without the gun.

No, I don't think so.

She's got his gun.

Men always like to drive, don't they?

Why don't you drive?

Lopez, you take the first shift.

Copy that.

Hanging on your every word.

Keep the channels open. Be careful. He's
got his gun.

We're going south

on Cedar.

So, uh, where are we going? Back to your
place?

I thought not.

Okay, well, so then where are we going?

We'll find out when we get there.

You seem a little uneasy.

Is something bothering you?

What is it, the gun?

I can assure you I only use it for self
-defense.

That's what I'm using it for.

Yeah.

Well, we will take her to Frontier
Boulevard unless she turns off.

John, here.

Sign says on the way to the reservoir.

Well, does that sound like a good place
to you?

Sure, let's go to the reservoir.

Lopez, head for the reservoir. Move it.

So, you want to talk about it?

About what?

I don't know.

Whatever is bothering you.

Well, men like you.

It could bother him.

Oh, I was attracted to you.

Is that a crime?

No.

But what you were planning on doing,
that's the crime.

What is that?

Is that what I think it is? Sounds like
Chicago.

We show ourselves, so do we.

What's your name? I don't even know your
name.

Does that matter?

You're going to pull that trigger. I
should at least know who's kissing me

You're wearing a wire!

He's going to try to kill the others.
Help, boy!

Don't do it!

Emily! Emily, listen to me!

Stop! Don't! Emily, don't do it!

You're Jessica, aren't you?

Let me help. We can fight the others
together.

You can't stop them.

But I can.

No!

No!

It's gonna be all right.

You know, the doctor says you should
wait a couple of days before traveling.

I think I'll recoup better at home.

Home? I never thought I'd ever hear
myself calling Florida home.

Well, stranger things have happened.

Yeah.

Yeah, well, I figure that I don't have
to worry about extradition.

How hard did you try?

Hard enough to know I could never make a
case.

Yeah, well, I may be crazy, but I'm not
stupid.

Speaking of which...

What do you think is going to happen in
the trial of our Miss Multiple

Personality? That'll be up to the
shrinks and the lawyers to decide.

Yeah, she was always killing her father,
huh? Over and over.

She couldn't get revenge for what he'd
done to her.

So pieces of her broke off and took it
out on other victims.

So what did he do?

You don't want to know. No, you're
right. I don't want to know.

Well, if you ever get down to Florida to
visit your parents, maybe you'll think

it was slipping over for a couple of
days, too.

St. Petersburg.

Yeah, that'd be good.

Tony, I only wanted good for you.

I know.

Try to remember it all, huh, Tony?

Not just the last two days.

That's right.
