What happened?

Lounge singer rehearsing for the
Valentine's party.

Went down during It Had to Be You,
toppled right into the drum set.

Carter? Dead.

Hold her head up, Max.

My guess, heart attack, but she could
have asphyxiated in the microphone.

Looks like she choked trying to eat it.

Witness that she fell face first,
jamming it up her mouth.

There.

Testing, testing.

Good equipment.

Who is she?

Uh, Marla Melrose.

Things mostly show tunes.

Bartender said she was pretty good.

Take her to the morgue.

Autopsy?

Not unless there's something suspicious,
Carter.

Okay, move in.

Lift her up.

Let's get her to the morgue.

Type in the case number, like that, and
punch it up, whatever you want.

Can this thing punch up Wesley Snipes?
You wish.

Hey,

what's going on?

Oh, Kimberly was giving me lessons on
the computer.

Yeah, we were trying to punch up Wesley
Snipes.

Kimberly, could you excuse us for a
second?

Oh, sure. I've got to go anyway.

I'll call you later.

Okay.

Did I do something wrong?

Um, no.

Not really. There's just something I'm
concerned about.

This probably goes without saying, but
I'm the district attorney.

Hey, I'm just saying that 90 % of my
cases are against Douglas Wambaugh,

Kimberly's boss.

So you cannot be sharing our work
product with her.

I mean, if I send you to find a case and
you ask Kimberly to help you look for

it, Douglas Wambaugh knows what cases
we're relying on. Oh, I would never do

that. She was just showing me some
general stuff.

Okay. Well, just remember, we're the
prosecution, they're the defense. We're

against each other.

Got it.

Mr. Littleton?

Are you unhappy with my work?

No. Not at all. Why do you ask that?

I don't know. The first few weeks seemed
great, but lately there's been, like,

some tension or something.

You've been doing great work, Aisha.

Okay.

Do you think you could restack those
books for me? That's kind of a big pile

right there.

Okay.

I always wanted to sing.

I've always felt emotion can be accessed
better through music.

My background is science, so sometimes I
can be emotionally impotent. It helps

if I put on Tony Bennett.

I hope you get to sing for God.

in there. She's got to be in town.

Where's Jill? I need Dr. Brock. What's
going on? This woman, I pronounced her

dead earlier.

She's not dead, but she could have a
concussion.

What? She's alive.

She's got a bump on her head.

Melrose.

Marla Melrose.

Nightclub singer.

Went down during It Had to Be You. Dead,
now not dead.

I know she was dead. I don't
mispronounce.

I got state coroner of the year back to
back.

I don't mispronounce. All right.

Carter.

Ma 'am, how do you feel?

I've got a headache.

Well, you seem fine, but we're going to
check you out, and then maybe we can

check you out.

All right, would you take her inside,
please? Okay.

She's not dead, Carter.

Got it.

It's your imagination.

No, it's not.

You want to think that because you like
him, Aisha. You keep saying how sexy he

is. I only said that once. Look.

I know when a man likes me, okay? I've
had my mother's friends look at me like

that. I know.

He's the district attorney.

He would never... I'm not saying he's
going to do anything. I'm just saying

he's been looking at me in that way, and
he's been different the last few weeks.

He's gotten... Gotten what?

Kimberly, some singer died in Ocali's.

Microphone stuck deep in her esophagus.
Get the police report.

There could be somebody to sue.

Tragic.

Last three weeks, he's gotten what?

I don't know, shy or something.

I was stacking some books, and I caught
him looking right at my ass with one of

those mm -mm -mm kind of... Let me ask
you something.

Do you think he'd ever ask me out?

You want him to, don't you?

No, I'm 18. He's, what, 30. That's not
such a big deal.

It's a pretty big deal.

What about you and Kenny Lockers?

That was okay.

That's different.

Why?

Well, Kenny... John Littleton is the D
.A. It's just different.

Look, I've gone out with guys older than
him, okay? I could go out with him.

Why can't I?

Me?

Don't panic, Kenny. It's not like a
date. I just thought we could go

as, you know... Dates?

Not date dates, just escorts.

It's a Valentine's party. It's for
charity.

I mean, I'm not going with anybody.
You're not going with anybody.

There's no circus in town, so it's not
likely that you will run into a triple

contortionist scene between now and
Thursday.

You know, I just thought we could go
together.

That would be it?

Yeah, that would be it.

Max, I don't know that I could do that.

Why not?

Why not?

You know why not.

I don't. Tell me. You know. You just
want me to tell you. I don't know. And

don't tell me what I do know and what I
don't know. You don't want to be dates?

Fine. But don't be inventing excuses
that don't exist. Not interested?

That's all you have to say.

Done.

Problem is, I am interested.

Don't get me wrong.

We're no match, you and me, but who's
kidding who? We admit we fantasized

over...

Sometimes it's hard for me to work side
by side with you every day. I get

temptations. We go to a party, you dress
nice, maybe I take some punch.

So you have impulses.

That doesn't mean you have to act on
them.

Part of being an adult is recognizing
what you want and then running as fast

you can in the opposite direction.

That's exactly what I'm doing. I'm going
in the opposite direction here.

Fine. Sorry I brought it up.

Fine.

How long are we going to play this game,
Kenny?

You know, maybe we should just get it
out of our system.

We almost did that night Rachel came in.
Maybe we should just... Is that what

you want?

Well, you said it's distracting you from
your work.

Maybe for the sake of... You know, we
should just extinguish the curiosity so

that we can both, you know, move on.

So that's what this Valentine party's
about.

Extinguishing curiosity.

You know what?

You can forget the whole thing.

I just thought we could go to the party
as friends, but it's stupid. I mean, if

you're not mature enough to handle that,
I won't be stupid enough to... Max, if

you want something to happen, just say
it.

I don't want anything to happen.

I just thought we could go in the same
car.

You know, right, Cher?

What are you doing?

Something I think about every day.

You know, I just wanted to go to the
party together.

Platonic.

Friends.

I'm off duty.

Me too.

Well, we could... Go.

Yeah, go.

That would be really good.

We should, you know... Go?

Yeah. Oh, go.

Good night.

Good night.

See you. Good night.

Well, your EKG is normal, and your blood
pressure is 120 over 80.

You struck me in a Ziploc bag?

That was an oversight.

So was I dead or not?

Well, I believe that you were.

You had no pulse, and you weren't
breathing.

This phenomenon has happened before, but
to be honest with you, I can't explain

it. We should probably check you for a
mitral valve prolapse, something that

could have stopped your heart.

I heard a voice tell me to go back.

Go back?

Then I opened my eyes and I saw you.

Just for today Let me love you

Just for tonight I'll close

my eyes

And when I open them, my world will be
all right.

It couldn't hurt anyone.

It wouldn't hurt anyone.

Just for today.

I want to hold you just for tonight.

for pronouncing you dead. It's not like
me.

It's okay.

The important thing, I guess, is I'm
alive.

Yeah.

Tony Bennett, huh?

I beg your pardon?

When I was zipped up in the bag, I heard
you say you needed Tony Bennett to help

with your emotions.

You heard that?

That's why I got into music, too.
Singing kind of helped to unlock what

inside of me. I get shy talking to
somebody, but if I can use music... I

to be a singer when I was little.

I was in choirs, but... Oh, boy.

I wish I could sing like you.

Well,

how about singing with me at the
Valentine's party?

I always like to call up a local
resident for a duet. It sort of adds a

flavor to the night.

I can't sing in front of living people.

Well, find something in your range. You
can do it. You'll kill them.

Then you can pronounce them all dead.

I put a checkmark next to all the
witnesses I plan to call in the

case. You think you could read and
summarize those statements for me?

Yeah. Okay, if I could get that back by
Friday, that would be great.

What?

Can I talk to you a second?

Yeah, have a seat.

No, I think I better stand, because this
might be kind of hard to say.

Okay.

Aisha.

What's going on?

Okay, look.

I'm just going to say it.

You're probably going to fire me, but
I'm just going to say it anyway.

I think you're attracted to me.

You know, sexually.

Why do you think that?

I can just tell.

It's okay, because I'm attracted to you,
too.

Really attracted.

This isn't an appropriate... You work
for me, Aisha. This is not an

conversation. I'm 18, you know. I've
probably been 18 since I was 13. Aisha,

don't be ridiculous.

Come on.

Are you attracted to me?

No, of course not.

I'm not attracted to you. You're in high
school. You work for me.

I'm not attracted to you. That's crazy.

Of course not.

Okay.

Sorry.

Guess I'll get back to work.

Okay.

Incident report has to be changed so the
woman isn't dead anymore.

It's Max's. I'll give it to her.
Whatever.

Give what to me?

Incident report on Marla Melrose.

Got to upgrade her to being alive.

Okay.

I'll take care of it.

Okay, thanks.

Hi.

Hi. How's it going?

How's it going?

What?

That's what you say to me, how's it
going?

I say that to you every day, Max.

Well, Kenny, it's not exactly just
another day.

It is to me.

When we talk?

I knew it.

I knew it.

I knew if we slept together, you'd want
to talk.

I knew it.

We had a deal, Max.

It was just curiosity.

That's what we agreed. It wouldn't
change. Nothing between us. We had a

What? And I break the deal by just
saying hi the morning after?

You didn't just say hi.

You said you wanted to talk.

What do you want to talk about? What
does every woman want to talk about the

after? Their feelings.

Well, I've got too much work today, Max.
If you've got feelings, leave me out of

them. You said you wanted to get stuff
out of our system. We got a lot of stuff

out. It was great. It was incredible.
But today we're back at work.

That's exactly the way I want it.

Good.

Good.

DNA forensics. Have you read this?

No.

You should.

When you're in my arms

And I feel you close to me Life's what
it's supposed to be

I'm in love and you are my song

You're my memory.

Melody, melody.

Oh, shoot, sorry.

That's okay.

I keep worrying about the note. I keep
forgetting the words. No, no, no, you're

good, Carter. I'm thinking about taking
you on the road. I think I'll keep my

day job.

Come on, here we go. Get ready.

Sing it.

Let everybody know I found you.

Aisha, you obviously caught me off
guard.

And, um...

Well, I've been thinking, since you were
so candid with me, I feel I owe you the

truth.

I am very attracted to you.

And it's been getting stronger and
stronger since you've been here.

I mean, that you've noticed.

I hope I haven't done anything to impose
myself on you or make you feel

uncomfortable. I can just... But even
so...

And I don't like it.

I don't think you should work here
anymore.

It's not a good situation.

Hey, Mac, about that book you read.

Later. Excuse me. Please, take your hand
off of me.

You see, that's exactly why I was
against the idea. Going to bed, it

everything. This has nothing to do with
that. It has to do with the insulting

way that you treated me after.

But what I'm trying to tell you is if
there was no before, there wouldn't be

after, and you wouldn't be insulted.

Is that really what you think?

Yes, I do.

I have seen chauvinism. I've even seen
it in you before, so I probably

be shocked.

But you give pigs a bad name.

I don't want to be your squeeze.

I don't want to be your deputy partner.
I don't want to be your friend.

Have you got that, Kenny?

I'm sure as I walk away, you'll
rationalize my reaction with some

like she must have gotten her period.

Well, try and absorb this through your
thick, misogynist skull. And you can

that word up later. When it comes to
you, I will be having my period for the

rest of my life.

Try and enjoy the rest of yours.

I was in the neighborhood.

I thought we could relive our Supreme
Court day over a cup of coffee.

Uh -huh.

Well, anyway, while I'm here, Aisha was
talking to Kimberly in my office.

Sometimes I overhear, probably because I
listen with my ear to the door.

Wombos have always been nosy.

You can't fire somebody because you're
sexually attracted to her.

That's illegal.

You representing her, Doug?

She's not going to sue, and I'm not here
as a lawyer.

I'm here as your friend.

Is that why you fired her?

Look, she is a high school girl, all
right? She made a sexual advance toward

And, yes, I admit I find her very
attractive, but I am the district

Now, do you think it's really wise for
me to work side by side with this girl

alone?

It doesn't make sense, I agree.

But to send somebody away because you
like her, well, that seems funny, too.

Can I get a word with you?

Here's two.

Rob's dead.

Hey, let go of me! What is this?

What is this, caveman, cavewoman? That's
exactly your speed, Kenny.

I told you my speed, and you know what,
Max?

I may be a chauvinist, but I'm not a
liar. I told you it was all about sex

nothing more. That doesn't mean you
can't be courteous.

I didn't charge in demanding a
relationship. I said hi.

Hi. And you look at me like I'm... I
know you, Max.

Maybe you said hi, but I know you. There
was hope, and what happens now, and

when do we get together again, all
wrapped up in that high.

You're out of your mind.

I know you.

Don't lie to me.

I'm not looking for what you're looking
for.

What I was looking for, I already got.

That makes me a chauvinist?

Fine. But at least I was honest.

For me, it's about near -death and death
experiences.

There are a lot of accounts of people
who say that they died and came back. I

was going to give it to you when we
rehearsed, but since you came over...

You're so sweet. Thank you.

You know, I'm a very spiritual person.

Some people think I'm crazy. I believe
in UFOs and... Me too. I do. I always

have.

Don't think I'm strange for asking you
this, but... Do you chase tornadoes?

You do.

Somehow I knew you did.

Do... Do you?

Yeah.

That's why I choose to live in the
Midwest every summer.

Carter... Forgive me for being bold. I'm
too crazy.

But... Maybe when God sent me back, he
sent me back to meet you.

I can't even believe I'm sharing this
with you, but I gotta talk to somebody.

You have feelings for this woman?

Well, she's only 18.

I mean, I'm old enough to be her... What
would people say if I started dating a

high school girl? I mean, that's insane.

Do you care what people say?

Yes. I'm the district attorney. I'm
supposed to set an example in this town.

If I start running around with a...

You know, I'm supposed to be setting an
example.

Sounds like you have a problem, Counsel.

As to why you're coming to me with it, I
don't have a clue.

Look, what would you think if... You

see, this is ridiculous.

She's young and beautiful, that's all.

It's probably just my testosterone
talking, you know what I mean?

Not really.

I don't usually converse with mine.

And if this were just a hormone issue,
you wouldn't be here.

I have my career.

I'm not going to jeopardize it over some
silly infatuation. That's crazy.

Well, you might be right.

I'm a man, damn it. And what I want most
in a woman is sex. That's what I wanted

in you. I was open about it, and I'm not
going to apologize. Yeah, Kenny, that's

what you keep shouting about. Problem
is, you're shouting just a little too

loud. You want to know what I think? I
think you're the liar.

Because what happened between us in that
bed, it wasn't just sex. It wasn't just

sport. Oh, here we go. Oh, yeah, here we
go. You can't even look at me, Kenny.

Look at me.

You think you know me?

I know you. I looked into your eyes. I
looked right into you and I saw it.

I went into that bed to get laid,
period.

But that's not what happened.

You were making love to me. That wasn't
just fun between the sheets. You were

making love.

That's what you wanted to see.

Why would I want to see that? You're a
Cro -Magnon. You think I want some

Neanderthal to fall in love with me? I'm
not in love with you. Then what the

hell was happening in that bed?

Sex. Bang, bang, sex.

You know...

You're the liar. You can shout and jump
and bang -bang all you want, but you're

the liar.

It's always worked before.

It's all right.

No, no, no, it's not all right.

It's always been both responsive and
rigorous.

Maybe it's the setting, the morgue, a
room of death. Maybe it picked up on

I've always been rigorous.

Sweet little man, it's okay.

This just isn't my style, this kind of
impulsiveness. My pattern of extended

courtships. It's possible I need
planning. It's just that when you said

chased tornadoes, I... I lost myself.

Extended courtships, huh?

I like the sound of that.

Carter, is something wrong?

I don't know. I'm sorry.

Don't. Don't be sorry. Come on.

The party's going to start in about an
hour.

It's Valentine's Day.

Hey, let's go.

Where's Kimberly?

Oh, she's meeting us there.

She got a date?

Not that I know of.

Hi.

Hey.

Do you think you could help me? Sure.

Sit. Oh, thanks. You look gorgeous, Max.

Thank you.

What are you looking at?

Leftovers.

Mac, if you ever hit me again, I swear
I'll hit you back. I promise you.

Gee, you lied again.

I didn't lie.

Just because I was passionate in bed
with you doesn't mean I'm in love with

I am late for a party.

Look at me.

Who's turning away from who now?

Mac, please listen to me.

best friend I've got.

You may be my only friend.

I never would have risked.

I never would have risked that.

This isn't fair.

You wanted to go to bed.

You wanted to have sex.

And I end up losing everything.

I lose my best friend in life.

If you cared for me as much as I do for
you, you never would have raised that.

You never would have taken the chance.

I couldn't live another day without
taking the chance.

I've been in love with you for three
years.

I smiled when you dated the twins.

When you had the affair with Rachel.

This year you go out with Kimberly.

I supported you all the way.

But inside I was dying.

Dying.

I know I risked our friendship, Kenny.

I know.

But please don't tell me who ends up
with nothing here.

I admitted the truth.

And that's something.

You know, I've been to bed with men I
didn't love.

Sometimes it's even been wild passion.

I know the body language.

The head's turn.

The neck's arch.

But when it's just that, you never
connect with the eyes.

But you and me, Kenny, we never took our
eyes off each other.

I saw a man who loves me.

Now, I wanted to see that. That's... No
question.

But I thought...

When

you're in my arms, and I feel you close
to me,

Like what it's supposed to be.

I'm in love. And you are my song. You're
my melody.

You're every dream I've locked away.

My whole world came alive today.

You walk into my life.

And you are my song.

Sing it.

Let everybody know.

That people love to sing about.

Hi.

Hello.

I was just in the neighborhood. I
thought we could relive our Supreme

trip.

Mr. Wambaugh told me about his visit.

Yeah, and this would be the follow -up,
right?

Can I sit?

I'm not real great at being blunt, so...
Well... You know, the

amazing thing about Aisha is how
intuitive she is.

She instantly picked up that she made me
nervous at first.

She read me so perfectly.

And her read on you is that you like her
a lot.

A lot.

True?

Yeah, it's true.

Look, I know she's young, but she's much
older than her years.

Don't you think... I don't know, that
you owe it to yourself to just see if

there could be something between you
two?

There couldn't be.

Why not?

Because I wouldn't allow for it.

You see, I have this very practical
side.

And my job, you know, I need my
credibility. My reputation bears on

try.

That means sometimes I have to ignore
these feelings that...

I think you should just call her.

I won't.

And you're in my arms.

Oh, you are magnificent.

Carter, you are great. Great, Carter.
Oh, how wonderful.

believe I died here. Yeah.

Potter, what would you think about me
staying here in Rome?

Well, that would be terrific.

This is a great community.

Well, you know what I mean. I don't mean
to be way out there, but I think I was

reborn in Rome.

I was reborn to be with you.

Marla, I... I think you're a fantastic
woman. I

can't ever remember hitting it off with
anybody so quickly.

I'm not attracted to you.

That's what happened in the morgue
tonight. The brain signal that tells you

you know...

get aroused, it never happened.

I don't think a man ever said that to me
in a bar before.

I think you're a beautiful woman. I know
it.

Yeah, well, I'm sorry. I thought we were
getting along.

We were. We are.

You can't imagine how this makes me
feel. I finally find a woman who likes

things I like. She's funny.

She's smart and pretty.

Everything I'm looking for, but the
chemistry.

Funny thing.

You're sweet, Carter. An honest man.

Plenty things.

You know, I care about you, too.

In fact, there's a lot of times that I
even wish that... Wish what?

That... I don't want an equal.

It's not my... You know what my idea of
the perfect wife is?

She looks great.

We have good sex.

She's a fantastic mother.

Holds me when I cry, which is maybe once
a year, tops.

When she wants to talk about something
deep, we invite her sister over.

The two of them stay in the kitchen
while I go watch football.

That's me.

Never in a million years would you stand
for it.

Nope, I wouldn't.

I need to be in control.

With you, I wouldn't be.

So you're scared.

Of what?

Losing your life?

You were making love to me, weren't you,
Kenny?

Was it just me?

No.

Then what are you so afraid of?

That you'd leave.

We'd be together and then you'd leave
and I don't think I could handle that.

You really want to try this?

Yeah.

Just for today Let me love

you Just for tonight I'll

close my eyes And when I open them My
world

to wake
