Original subtitles

Oh, my God.

Can you hear me?

Okay.

It's going to be all right.

I swear to you, you're going to be okay.

Just hold it there.

I'm going to get you off this roof.

Look at those.

$59 .95.

Why would you wear pink boots?

Well, that's not the point. They're on sale.

This is real Italian leather.

I don't need pink boots.

So die them.

The ones you got have got to be three years old.

You have to be very comfortable, and they were a present from hard.

That is nostalgia, Mary Beth. We're talking bargains here. Look at this.

morning, sir.

Shopping today or working?

Working, Lieutenant.

Good, because I got a real sweetheart here for you.

This guy's knocked over four liquor stores in the past three months, all

midtown. His M .O. was daylight, mirror, sunglasses, and a small caliber gun.

This came over from the 8th? Yeah, he started there, but now he seems to like

better. The 8th prison never got an idea on him. Well, he doesn't exactly

encourage witnesses.

One store owner gave him static, he got a bullet in the gut for his trouble.

Sounds charming.

Yeah, hey, but come on, who's always griping on the only given grounders?

Now, this guy is mean.

So don't say I don't do you any favors.

Lieutenant. Yeah. Have you seen this? What's this?

Weight inspection.

Second notice. What weight inspection?

What second notice?

He threw the first one away, too.

All officers are hereby put on notice of inspection six weeks from above date.

At that time, any officer not conforming to departmental height -weight

standards that specified herein will be placed on modified assignments until

such time as said standards are adhered to.

Have you seen the gut on him?

Back in Lansing, there's a liquor store robbery in progress, 41st and 8th.

Honoré! The suspect described as male, location, 6 feet tall, approximately...

Come on, move it!

What is going on? I can't believe this. You wonder why I picked downtown in

broad daylight?

Where are we? 10th and 40th. Pull over, pull over, pull over.

Get out of here.

Oh, my God.

I've got to turn you over.

Can you hear me?

Let me see it.

Let me see it, Chris.

Okay.

Okay.

It'll be all right.

I swear to you, you're going to be okay.

I'm going to... I'm going to get you off this roof, Chris.

You hear me?

I'm going to get you off this roof.

Now, hang on there.

Just hold it there.

Dr. Phillips, please call nurse. No word yet?

No, sir.

I was thinking of so long. Hey, don't worry.

We all know how strong Christine is. She's going to make it.

Charlie, I'm so sorry. Hey, Mary Beth, now come on.

We're cops. It goes with the territory. Remember Talavert?

It's going to be okay.

Cagney? Christine Cagney? Any family members here? Yeah.

I'm, uh, I'm Charles Cagney.

I'm Christine Cagney's father.

She's in ICU.

She's okay?

She's lost several units of blood.

Bullet managed to miss her heart and lung.

Barring complications, she should be out of here in two weeks.

Can we see her?

Tomorrow. She won't be awake till then. No, no, no. I'm her father. I want to

see her now. I won't even know you're there.

Just want to look at her. Okay.

Down the hall to your left, second door.

Just the father.

Oh, yeah, oh, yeah.

Esposito, Emilio Esposito.

Ready? Would you quit sneaking up on me? You could give a person a heart attack.

Come on. Put that stuff down. Let's talk.

Bob, I'm cleaning the refrigerator here. Could you leave me in peace, please?

No. No, no. When you clean refrigerators at three in the morning, you need to

talk. I don't want to talk. You need to. You need to get it out. Bob, stop.

Christine getting hurt was not your fault, Mary Beth. There is no reason for

to feel guilty.

All of a sudden, you're a psychiatrist.

Yeah, there's some things I know. I should have been there for her, Harv.

were there. Behind her.

Harv, he'd be always behind her. Right behind her. Oh, come on, babe. Don't

on, babe, me. You didn't let her down. I don't believe it. Chris doesn't believe

it. Not for a second.

Oh, now you read minds.

Harv, I got a refrigerator to clean here.

As soon as I can see her.

All right, you tell her I'll be there at 7 o 'clock.

Yeah, and tell her we all miss her here.

Thanks.

She had a good night.

She's doing real good.

Anybody see my case file?

I got it.

Look, we can ask for this.

You cannot do this to me. You see?

With due respect, Lieutenant, you cannot take me off this case.

There's a lot of crime in this city, Lacey.

Concentrate on your other cases.

I want to locate the man that shot my partner. I understand that. And that's

exactly why I took you off the case.

Please, Lieutenant, this one belongs to me, and you know that. We had the thing

15 minutes. Christine was on him, and I owe it to her.

Lacey, I got that.

But what Cagney Hunter does, you can't work the case alone.

I can start the legwork, sir. She'll be back in two, three weeks. Oh, well,

that's great.

That's great. Now, what's going to happen in the meantime when a guy hits

huh? You're going to explain it to the victim's families?

All right, then give me another detective to work with. Anybody else?

What do you think, I got detectives coming out of my ears?

Please, Lieutenant, will you work it out for me?

All right.

I'll think about it.

But not until you get out of here.

Now!

I'm fine, Chris.

Did you tear my sweater?

Yeah.

Did you see anything?

You said... Mary Beth, I told you to get a new pair of boots.

What?

See, my heel came off.

And I took that header down the stairs.

That's how come you hit that corner by yourself.

I feel very bad, Chris.

I burned those lousy boots.

You'll see.

Something good comes out of everything.

It was an accident.

I couldn't sleep last night, Chris.

I kept seeing that roof.

Me too.

Would you get a look at that guy?

I nailed him.

I think Mary Beth in the lake.

He looks so familiar.

Leave it for now.

How much pain?

Well, I went by your place.

I picked up a few things.

I got them.

Oh, you know, cosmetics and toothpaste.

Nonsense.

Thanks very much.

I got a ton of messages here that came in last night.

Oh,

a big group.

Cops and civilians.

Mostly men.

Charlie. Oh, your dad?

He was here yesterday.

First thing.

He's washed his way into ICU to see you.

I guess it wasn't a barrel of halves.

You know, Charlie, he likes to have a good time.

Rest, all right?

Rest and get strong.

And I'll come by, see you in the morning.

I'm going to get that bastard for you, Chris.

Doctor says you need two weeks.

Two weeks.

One week.

I'll bet you a pair of pink boots.

You're right.

Anybody thinks this is funny is going to be directing traffic in Sheepshead Bay.

You're

going to have

to take some more drastic measures, Bert.

Watch it, Coleman.

Did I say anything?

I'm sorry to be late, sir, but you wouldn't believe the traffic near the

hospital. You're going to have to cut down on the visiting hours because

got something that's going to take a lot more of your time now.

Sir? A string of liquor store robberies.

Liquor stores?

Oh, yes, sir.

It's in my office.

Come on.

Hello.

I'm Mary Beth Lacey.

Well, hello.

Steve Bennett.

Detective First Grade, late of the 8th Precinct, temporarily your partner, and

the pleasure is all mine.

Tom? Yeah?

Gotta get up, don't you?

Yeah, I'm up.

I'm up.

I'm up.

I'm up.

I'm up.

Morning.

Hey,

gee, your hair looks real nice, Mary Beth.

Did you do something different?

No, no, same as usual.

Honey, you got any cash?

The boys need lunch money.

In my wallet.

I'll get it.

I'm taking five dollars.

What's all that gook on your eyes?

Gook?

It's mascara, huh? I put that on every morning.

Your new partner, you said he's up for retirement, so what does that make him,

about 60?

No, uh, 46.

47? He's through, though. Made his 20 years. Yeah? Good for him.

What does he look like?

Oh, nice looking.

Very fit.

Hey.

Is that a new outfit, babe?

Well, I got this sweater from your mother three Christmases ago.

The skirt I bought at Macy's on sale last Labor Day. Well, you look very

Thank you very much.

So, what's he like? Is he married?

Divorced.

Harvey, the man, and I are working together.

Working together, that's it. Did I say anything?

Give me a kiss, Harvey.

Hmm.

New perfume?

One of our witnesses said the guy has an accent.

Now, Beth, why don't you put the file away, okay? I mean, it's our lunch

Now, one other witness mentions an accident.

Yeah, well, half these witnesses can't even speak English. Here, here, here.

This is bad for your digestion.

Enjoy your lunch.

You know, maybe you're going to learn something from me, huh?

Oh, oh?

You've got to slow down a little bit or you're going to burn yourself out.

Homemade baklava.

The best.

Oh, no, thanks. Anyway, I could need another thing. Oh, it's okay. Just leave

it.

You gotta taste this stuff. It's incredible.

I really don't want any.

You gotta at least try it.

Huh? Come on.

One bite.

You'll insult Demetrius.

Delicious. Demetrius!

He's an artist, isn't he? We gotta go.

Excuse me.

May we have a check, please?

No. My friend Detective Bennett knows never a charge from New York's finest.

Oh, well, that really isn't necessary.

Or lawful, sir.

Never argue with your host.

Thank you, Demetrius.

A couple of stuffed grape leaves and some baklava. I mean, we're not talking

major corruption here, Detective Lacey. I'll drive.

Well, let's go.

Let's go.

Thank you.

So it's different working with a guy?

Yeah, it's different, all right.

Like how?

Oh.

He always assumes he's the one that's going to drive.

Well, I bet you're not the world's best driver.

And when we're interviewing witnesses, I ask questions. They answer him like I'm

his assistant or something.

Well, it's not his fault.

Okay, all right. So that stuff is not a big deal.

His attitude, I don't like.

Dad?

What do you mean?

We've got a shooter out there.

All this one cares about is eating lunch and getting home at five.

I thought you liked getting home at five.

This is different.

You never got home at five with me.

You didn't realize how good you had it with me, did you?

I realized.

This is nice.

From your dad?

No. Tom.

It's horrible.

Who's Tom?

Uh, security's in.

There's 50 bucks, I bet you.

Charlie hasn't called or anything.

Did you try him?

No answer.

Um, maybe something came up.

Maybe.

Two Jolly Donuts, an orange soda.

Right here.

What? It's nothing but refined carbohydrates, Coleman.

Bacon and egg sandwich, chocolate milk?

Yup. Pure cholesterol.

Cream cheese and laksana bagel. Yeah, that's me.

Do you know how much sodium there is in that?

It's a cardiovascular time bomb. Looks like breakfast to me.

What is this, huh?

A squad room or a diner?

Well, if you see him anywhere, will you tell him to call his daughter at the

hospital? Thank you. Good morning.

And how are you on this bright and loverly day, eh? Give me those witness

statements from the liquor store.

Oh, Detective Lacey.

You've got to slow down.

You've got to learn to enjoy life.

Smell the flowers.

Nice.

Statements?

First thing this morning.

Scout's honor.

Here, let me see this for you.

Coleman, how come I didn't get this before?

I just found it. The new night man took it last night.

He thought you were the one who was in the hospital.

What have we got?

This is Coleman Garcia in the Bronx.

I think she remembers something.

Well, why can't you come down here?

I've got a sick child and no telephone.

Uh -huh.

There's always one, right?

You know, years ago, this senile old guy hauls me all the way out the far rock

away, three times.

The only thing is, once I got there, he could never quite remember why he

called. Mrs. Garcia does not sound to me like a senile old guy.

She said she thinks she remembers something. Now, you want to haul us all

way up to the Bronx on that?

That's what they pay us for.

Yeah, well, I don't know about you, but I got 15 things to do right here.

Bennett, maybe she's really got something.

Yeah, and it'll still be there in an hour.

Besides, with mid -morning traffic, it could take us the whole morning just to

get up there.

What are you worried about, missing lunch?

Beats a drive up to the Bronx.

Thank you, detective.

Come on.

Is she always such a hot dog?

Not a match made in heaven.

You never heard of Peek -A -Boo?

Do you have a gun?

Uh -huh.

Well, tell him not to get too comfortable.

I wouldn't say he looks too comfortable.

No, Mary Beth is busting his chops.

Really? Yeah, the guy's dogging it.

It's hard to believe.

A friend of mine over at the 8th says he's been decorated four times.

That guy Bennett? Yeah.

Well, he's due to retire. Maybe suffering from short -timers disease.

It reminds me of my old sergeant, the guy who broke me in.

He had one week to his retirement. He answers a routine domestic disturbance

call, takes three shots to the chest, and dies.

Like that.

Say,

we'd better get back.

Christine, I hope our visit cheered you up. Thanks for coming, guys.

I feel better.

Yeah.

I'll see you later. Hey, Becky.

Can I talk to you privately?

All right, Victor.

Bye -bye. Shall I lock the door?

Victor, sit down.

I don't remember too much.

I was very frightened.

And this man's face, like with mirrors, was like a horror picture.

Excuse me, Mrs. Garcia. You said you thought you remembered something.

If we could skip to that, we could get out of your hair a lot quicker.

You take your time, Ann.

I dreamed about it.

That's when I remembered.

I kept seeing his hand.

The hand with the gun in it.

There was something on his hand.

A tattoo, I think.

Words or a picture? A fish.

Are you sure?

Maybe a bird.

Do you remember the color?

Black, maybe dark blue.

It was very hard to tell.

Ma 'am, if you had to take a guess, what would you say that tattoo was?

A fish.

That's what I think it was.

A fish with...

Fins. With big fins.

Big fins.

It's probably a 57 Chevy.

Not funny.

Anybody ever tell you you take everything too seriously?

Yeah, I take my job seriously. I take it seriously when people make fun of

witnesses. Hey, give me a break.

You're acting like this fly ball is some kind of a jaywalker or something. He

shot two people. He could have killed my partner.

Uh -huh.

Is that why you're pushing so hard?

Look, handle your guilt in your own time, okay?

You're making me crazy, too. I'm doing my job.

I'm doing mine.

And I got a great place for lunch.

This is Central. Do you read me?

This is 312. Go ahead, dispatch.

You want to

go?

What are you doing here?

Hey, Mary Beth. I was looking all over for you.

Shh.

I'm going antsy in my room. I can't stand her. She's got to walk. Come on,

with me.

But your doctor said you're only supposed to walk around your room. I got

lady for a doctor.

So? How you doing on her case?

He hit another liquor store.

And?

One dead.

But we got a witness. Remember the tattoo?

Well, that's great.

Did you have it checked out?

Well, uh, there wasn't too much to check. She was a little fuzzy on the

So, how about a sketch artist? Did you get one?

Hey, you're supposed to be concentrating on getting well.

Oh, come on. I got doctors all over the place to tell me to do that. Did you get

a sketch artist?

Christine! Oh, don't Christine me, Mary Beth. I'm so bored here.

You are crazy. I don't want... You're a crazy person.

You are a sick woman. You're recovering from major surgery. You're supposed to

be getting rest.

Then you shouldn't yell at me. I'm a very sick person. You're supposed to be

getting rest. But you get...

Hello. Hi there.

This is my partner.

Yes, we've met, haven't we?

That's my other mother.

Would you get back to your room, please?

Gotta go.

Bring me a moldy milk.

You want some friendly advice?

What?

Don't.

He chewed me out twice in five minutes.

I think he's using rage as a food substitute.

What do you want?

Sir, I understand it wasn't a very good time. Good time?

I got a mug city councilman, a bomb scare, and a chimpanzee loose at PS

I'm supposed to handle all that on a boiled egg and a piece of dry toast?

Don't talk... to me about good times.

I'll come back later, sir. Wait a second.

What about the liquor store case, huh? I'm starting to get helpful phone calls

from City Hall.

Uh, well, sir, that's exactly what I want to talk to you about, sir. Yeah?

I'm having a little trouble with Detective Bennett.

What kind of trouble?

Well, I want to be fair about this, sir, but I think he's a little cautious.

A little too quick to be skeptical of evidence.

That's an indictment?

That sounds to me like a good cop, that's what.

Sounds like LaGuardia or yourself.

Do you know what makes your partnership with Cagney work?

Huh? Sir?

Some teams make it, some don't.

The ones that do are almost always made up of opposites.

Cagney eggs you on, you slow her down.

But between the two of you, you get the job done. Excuse me, sir, but what does

it have to do with me and Bennett? What it's got to do with you and Bennett is

that every good partnership needs a hot dog, that's what.

And with Cagney in the hospital, you are it.

Yes, sir.

The board here tells me that Charlie hasn't been in a hospital to see Cagney.

I called him three times, sir. No answer.

Think he's tying one on?

I don't know, sir.

Surprise.

What'd you do, rob a hearse? No, I got a cousin in the business.

If anybody finds out that they're missing, I do not know you.

Just get them back as soon as you can.

Don't worry.

Uh, what about your end?

What?

Oh.

Hmm.

Monica Brandt. R .N.

555 -4392.

You sure she's the one?

The rat head? Yeah, the one with the legs that just don't quit. I wouldn't

Hey, it's only because you're out of commission. I mean, if you weren't out

commission, we'd party just like we used to. You dare tell her I had anything to

do with this?

She'll never answer my call button again.

Hey,

did you get anything from ballistics?

Yeah, well, the bullets from all three victims match. They're from the same

weapon, but it's not an own gun, so...

What about you? You get anything at the hospitals on this leg injury?

Nothing. I guess none of the eyewitnesses panned out either, huh?

I talked five out of ten of them into coming down.

One couldn't make up his mind at all. The other four picked out four different

pictures. Two serving time, one deported, one deceased.

What about the tattoo lady?

Liz Garcia?

Uh -huh. She couldn't make it.

Her kid was too sick.

Nobody else mentioned a tattoo.

Well, that figures.

Which doesn't mean there wasn't one.

I say we should run a computer check. On what?

Every fish, bird, and flower we got?

If they can arm robbery priors, that'll narrow it down to what?

20 ,000, 30 ,000 suspects?

Detective Lacey, 14th Squad.

Mary Beth?

I told you, I never forget a face.

So Blevins is our man because three years ago he happened to wear mirrored

sunglasses, right?

James Ray Sonny Blevins, male Caucasian, 36, brown and brown, 5 '11", 165

pounds. That fits the description.

Drives a lot of guys.

Triers include possession of narcotics, six armed robberies, four in liquor

stores. Well, some partner you got there, a regular psychic, huh?

Identifying marks.

Shark tattoo, back of the right hand. Ho, ho, ho.

She's not psychic.

She's good.

Thank you, Jim.

There was parole officer. Where is he?

Hey, Kinsale.

Split from here, I don't know, two months ago. And I'll tell you, I haven't

the pleasure since.

Well, why haven't you sworn out a warrant for his arrest?

It happens that I did.

And it also happens that the last time I heard there was something like 300 ,000

outstanding warrants in the Big Apple.

Huh? Is that right?

Yeah. Sure it is.

So when do you figure he'll get blood? Somewhere around maybe 1987?

We'll get to him this afternoon if you can tell us where he is. Hey, like I

you, I don't have the man's address.

Yeah, sure.

Well, thanks a lot.

Hey, hey, could you work with us here, please?

Lampel, huh? You got to know something about the guy.

Friends, hangouts, anything.

I don't know. I don't know.

Well, he's got to have it.

Hey, I can tell you who his connection used to be.

Okay.

That's a start.

Wait a second. Wait a second, will you? I think we should at least coordinate

this with narcotics.

removed the paperwork in time.

Meanwhile, Blevins knocks over another liquor store.

Yeah, terrific.

So, in the meantime, we hang our tails out there with no backup, right? All

we're going to do is sit in the car across the street from his connections

apartment. We wait. If he shows up, then we call some uniforms for backup. We go

and we make a collar.

I don't like it.

You wouldn't like it if we had the National Guard for backup.

What?

I'm sick of arguing with you. I'm sick of pushing you.

I'm going to stake the place out tonight myself, with or without you. You know

something? I don't think it makes a difference.

Because you're a poor excuse for a partner.

I'm going to the hospital.

I'll take the train.

handled it wrong.

I didn't say that.

What would you have done?

I'd have told him to get his act together and get lost.

That's what I told him.

I'm going on my own.

You're a kid.

No, I'm not kidding.

That's what you do, isn't it?

Christine Candy doesn't wait around for backup.

She comes on like gangbusters.

First one through the door, she even solves cases from a hospital bed.

Hey, Meredith, come on.

No. I'm killing myself here trying to solve this case and you get the only

leaves laying on your back.

So? So, so, I know you're the one that got shot, but I'm hurting too.

Well, you think I don't know that?

I do know that.

It happened to us and there's nothing I can do to fix it.

You want to be my partner?

Yes.

You fixed it.

Jesus, it's worse than being married, huh?

How the hell do I know?

Well, you yell.

Sometimes you yell and then it clears the air.

Well, the air's pretty clear around here right now.

Do your nails.

I gotta go.

Do me a favor.

What? Don't go out there and try and prove anything tonight.

Oh, me?

Yeah, when's the last time you saw him?

Okay.

Thanks, Patty.

Got 86 from Patty's last night.

If I know Charlie, he's hitting every bar on the west side.

What's the name of that cop bar in that old garden?

McGinty's, 49th and 8th. You think he's there?

My guess is that he's working his way right up 8th Avenue.

How does anybody eat this garbage?

Well, cottage cheese is protein, and vegetables are roughage.

Paul, do you think maybe one chili dog would make a difference?

Don't do it.

Don't do it.

Come on. One lousy chili dog.

Bert, a chili dog is suicide.

Gave me half to death.

How long you been here?

Four hours, twelve minutes.

Thought you could use some coffee.

Thanks.

No,

thanks.

I, uh, paid for it.

So the dying guy says to the priest, hey, at this point, I don't want to

antagonize anyone, huh?

Hey, Mick, do it again, will you?

I gotta go, Charlie.

Where you going? Where you going?

Hey,

Bert. How you doing, Johnny? You don't get down here too much anymore.

What are you drinking?

Oh, no, no. I didn't come over here for a drink. Are you still undue? Hey, one

little nip won't hurt you.

Johnny.

Why haven't you been to see your daughter?

You know, she's really more your daughter now than mine, Bert.

That's a lot of garbage.

I was walking in that hospital room the other night, Bert.

She had one of the tubes coming out of her.

My heart fell on the floor, Bert.

I couldn't handle it.

So you hide out in the bar getting loaded? That's a lousy way to face it. I

couldn't stand Santa like that, Bert. She's my baby.

She's my baby and she hurt and I can't make her go away.

Ain't nothing I can do for her.

I'll tell you what you can do for her, Charlie.

You can go home and sober up.

And tomorrow, first thing, you put a smile on that dumb Irish mug of yours,

you go to that hospital and you see your daughter.

That's our boy.

Sure. How many junkies could there be in the city of New York with mirror

sunglasses and a bad leg?

This is Bennett and Lacey, 14th.

We need uniform backup at 138th and Fletcher. Do you copy?

138th and Fletcher.

10 -4.

Are you okay?

Are you cold?

I'm glad you're here.

Beats watching the late show.

Damn it.

He's leaving already.

To miss the connection.

Wait a second.

It's a busy night.

They're picking up the cash.

Uh -uh.

We'll never catch them in this heap.

Give me your hat.

What are you doing?

Cover me.

Hey, Sonny!

Hey, wait up, man.

Hey, baby. Stay cool.

It's me.

Hey, Sonny. Who is that guy? Hey, baby. He's a nerd, man.

Hey, hey, hey, leave me. Go. Hey, Sonny.

I swear I'll take out the gate.

Get your hands where I can see them.

Don't breathe.

Get on the car.

Get on the car!

What were you doing?

I never could stand high -speed chases.

They make the car sick.

Pat him down.

What do you think?

They're gorgeous.

Why don't you call your doctor into letting you out on Friday?

We negotiated.

Did you ever look at his teeth?

They're perfect.

I don't believe this.

Well, I got this thing about teeth.

Anyway, I got to come back for a checkup.

And then about my scar.

Listen, Mary Beth, I figured while I was with the plastic surgeon, you know, as

long as he's in the area, what do you think if I have a little... Christine!

Well, it's a thought.

There's Samuel.

Is he in a better mood?

No, worse.
