Pregnant?

It happens.

Maybe this time that you settle down and
this getting pregnant is like a sign or

something. Oh, it's wonderful.

Mary Bitts, those corny movies you
watch, they have warped your mind.

Men choose, 60, 70, 80 years old,
they're still deciding to have families.

Well, why do I have to decide now?

these stupid things anyway.

Not me.

21 minutes to. We're going to be late.
Why am I at a hose? Would you tell me

that? I don't know, Christine. I really
don't know. What's the matter with you?

You've been crazy all week. I'll tell
you what's the matter with me. Every

I put one of these things on, I shove my
foot right through it. Right through

it!

Terrific. I'll tell him about my morning
sleep insanity.

The hot water went out in the middle of
my shower.

Conditioner on my hair, of course.

And then... Oh, just... Ow!

And then I broke my coffee cup. Coffee
went all over my brand -new Italian

Check this out. This new miracle
cleaning fluid left a big ring. Look at

Probably permanent. It stopped the whole
thing off. I don't own a pair of socks

that even a hooker would wear. Here.
Right here. Like this here.

Let's go.

No, those are wet. Nice.

Oh, wait.

Hey.

These things are still soaking wet.

Listen, do you want to rehearse me,
Christine? You know how rattled I get in

court, okay?

Yeah, okay.

You're the assistant DA.

Mr. Wonderful himself.

All right. Detective Lacey, drawing your
attention to the dating question, under

what circumstances do you first recall
having seen Mr. George Poulianakis?

I first saw Mr.

Poulianakis. What is it?

Poulianakis.

Poulianakis. Poulianakis. Poulianakis.
Okay, let me start again, okay? Okay.

I first saw the victim.

No, objection.

What? I'm the defense attorney. Do you
need the alleged victim? These things

wet. Have you ever put on wet pantyhose
in a car?

Sorry.

I first saw the alleged victim.

when we were called to his house some 18
months, 22 days ago on East 20th

Street.

We've been there before. There were
prior incidents with Mr. Nolan.

Harassment of his tenants in an attempt
to get them to move so that he could

turn the place into a co -op. No,
objection again.

Still the defense attorney. That is
hearsay. Motion to strike.

Oh, hearsay. Would you please just
answer the questions as posed, Detective

Lacey? What did you see when you first
went into the apartment building?

Mr. Pooley on that, because this is a...

His door was locked.

What did you do?

My partner and I, well, actually, it was
one of my partners. Would you just get

on with the answer, please, detective?

Yes, sir.

We broke his door down.

Turning here. Hey.

Please tell the court why you broke
down, Mr. Foley and I.

Okay, we could hear moaning inside. And
also, there was this woman in there,

this Mrs.

Rose Skimmins, who had informed us.
Isn't that hearsay, Christine?

Just answer the questions, Detective.

Mrs. Rose Skimmins, who said that... I
don't get this, Christine. How come this

isn't hearsay, too?

Not introduced for truth of the matter,
sir.

How come you know all this stuff,
anyway? I'm asking the questions here,

Detective. Yes, sir. What was the
question?

Oh, wait, give me the keys. I left my
briefcase.

The question...

Why did you break down Mr. Polianakis'
door?

Because Mrs. Skimmins said that she
thought he was injured inside, so we

the door down.

And what did you see when you got in
there?

Oh, that was very sad. Object.

What? Registration to my client.

Mr. Polianakis was laying on his bed,
and he was half frozen with a cold, and

was badly beaten up. And the worst part
about it was he could not even get up

out of his bed and go for help, because
after Mr.

Wait, okay.

After? After Mr. Nolan. beat him up,
then he stole Mr.

Poulianakis' walker.

Objection. What?

Objection. Now I move for a misdrive.
No, wait, no, Christine. I told you I'd

get rattled in court.

Come on, everybody does. It's like
walking through a minefield. No, you

It doesn't matter anyway, Meredith.
We're going to get up there in the

The jury's already have asked for a
continuation.

No, the judge told him last time. This
was absolutely the last one.

Terrific. Come on.

People say to you, your check's in the
mail.

You probably believe that, don't you?

Excuse me.

There's a novelty there.

He does this French chocolate number.

Come on, Mac.

French chocolate, huh?

Sounds like a real prize, Victor.

Yeah, you know what she says to me last
night?

She says, Victor, where's this
relationship going?

That's a reasonable question.

Don't be a wimp, Marcus.

You know what I said?

I said, let's just, uh, let's see where
it goes, you know? Let's see what's

happening. No strings, no attachments.

You know what she says?

What does Bon Bon say, Victor?

She says she doesn't want to wind up in
three months sitting outside the 14th

Precinct in a parked car having the same
conversation.

Sharing that with me, Victor?

How do we know what's going to happen in
three months? I could be dead.

We all could be dead.

They've scheduled a sergeant's
examination.

Hey, Lieutenant, did you see this?

They scheduled a sergeant's examination
in three months. Yeah, I heard. That's

great. It's about time.

Well, they only give them every four
years.

Yeah, well, what's the odds?

A long shot is Becky, but it's worth it.
They give you five G's right off the

bat. $5 ,000 would certainly help
Lauren's college education.

College? Lauren's not even two people.

19 months, six days.

You seen the new picture?

Yeah, you showed that to me already.

I did.

How about you?

Yeah, yeah, sure.

Bon Bon Victor?

Bye -bye, Bon Bon.

You didn't even object.

You just rolled over and played dead.
Watch it, detective.

No, she's right, Mr. Bart. Leonard Nolan
has been out on bail all this time,

laughing up his sleeve at us. Are you
two through ventilating?

Good, because I'm not any happier about
this than you are. Then how come you

just sat there?

Nolan's lawyers are giving jury
instructions in federal court.

That means that we trail till Monday,
like it or not.

Comprende? No, I think it stinks.

Comprende?

Nolan's got battalions of million
-dollar -a -year lawyers, and we get

Well, how in the hell do we have a
chance with you?

Oh, thank you so much for that vote of
confidence.

Well, she didn't mean anything by it.
Yes, she did. Don't argue with him. But

doesn't bother me.

Because as it is, I'm going to beat the
posterior of Nolan's lawyers.

First reason being that I'm incredibly
skillful.

Second reason being, George Poliamakis
is one of the all -time great witnesses

to ever grace a courtroom. If he ever
gets the chance.

A face, a face like your favorite
grandfather, but a mind like a steel

They look like Attler the Hun if they go
after him, and I love it. I truly love

it.

I'm so glad you're happy.

Well, I'm glad that you're glad, but I
have one problem. What is that, sir?

Mr. Poliamakis did not show up today.

Well, the man is probably sick from all
the delays. He happens to be a 76 -year

-old semi -invalid, for Christ's sake.
He's been down here 20, 30 times. How

many times have we been here?

20, 30 times. She's beginning to get
boring. Please get her home. Yes, sir.

Paulianakis. Get him in court on Monday.
Yes, sir. First floor.

Christine, A, because he's on our side.
B, he's all we've got. I'm saying we

shouldn't go out of our way to
antagonize the man. I didn't go out of

got it.

That's an interesting distinction,
Christine.

We don't have to kiss up to him, and he
doesn't have to like us, because the

truth is, the press is going to be
covering that trial, and Mr. Wonderful

going to do anything to blow his big
opportunity, regardless of how he feels

about us.

I'm calling Mr.

Polianakis to find out why he wasn't
there.

All right, but don't take his head off,
okay? Just a little consideration, a

little respect. Thank you. Emily Post.

She's acting like a nutcase or what?

She seems all right to me. I don't know.

Hey.

Christine?

Hey, wait up.

Oh, yeah, she's fine. She looks fine to
me, too.

What?

Three days ago when he died last night.

Oh, man.

Oh, Jesus.

Hey.

Hey, Chris.

This is very sad about Mr. Pugliano.

I never saw you like this before.

What, something else, huh?

Oh, getting to be all at once. Oh, no.

I know what that's like.

I don't like to talk about your
problems, and I don't like to push,

want to cry it out? You go ahead. No,
really. Oh, go ahead. It's good for you.

It's okay. I really feel stupid. I'm
sorry. Oh, don't be silly.

That good cry sometimes is the best
thing for you.

You know, those tearjerker movies, I
could cry for hours.

And one time, when I was pregnant with
Michael, I cried.

I couldn't stop crying.

I cried a whole week.

Poor Harv. He thought that I was
miserable or something, but it was just

hormones, you know?

What?

You've got to give me a clue here or
something so I can help you. You got it.

What?

All I said was hormones.

Who, who, who is the father?

Mary Beth, let's not even talk about it,
all right? Just so you know who it is.

Yes,

I know who it is.

Look, maybe I'm, maybe I'm not.

I'm only a few days late.

How many days?

Two weeks. Two weeks? Two weeks? Don't
you yell at me.

Have you spoken to the father?

He's out of town on business.

There's telephones, Christine.

Mary Beth, look, you said you didn't
want to push.

I am concerned here. Now, who is it?

It's Neil.

Neil Riley?

The one with the wife who does not
understand him?

He's divorced.

Since when?

He was separated when I met him, Mary
Beth. I told you that. You never listen.

And what, he got divorced for you, huh?

No. He just got divorced.

You always really liked Neil.

So this is good.

It's great. No, no, I mean it. Maybe
this time that you settle down and this

getting pregnant is like a sign or
something.

Oh, it's wonderful.

Mary Beth, those corny movies you watch,
they have warped your mind.

Well, what would be so bad?

You're crazy for Neil, and you're so
good with children, Christine. I'm

not even pregnant. Now, don't. Then
you're starting again with that ostrich

routine with the head in the sand.

This is not going to go away, Christine.

You know, Mary Beth, I will probably get
my period today if we just stop talking

about it.

We've got a case that's going down the
tubes now. We've got to go see the dean.

uh, shows.

Where is he, anyway?

Obviously still in court. They haven't
broken for recess yet.

Not the D .A.

Neil Reilly.

Hong Kong.

I'm going to drop this.

All right, sir.

Okay, ma 'am. I'll see you in Judge's
Chamber this afternoon, okay?

Mr. Burke.

What are you doing here?

George Polianakis died last night.

Why does everything happen to me?

To you. Mr. Fulianakis died.

Well, we can kiss that case goodbye.

That was the defense strategy all along.

Keep continuing the case until the
eyewitness went senile or died.

Nice profession.

But, Mr. Burke, we still have Mr.

Fulianakis' transcript, or whatever you
call it, right, from the grand jury? We

can introduce that at trial, can't we?
Sure we can.

And then the defense lawyers can eat me
for breakfast.

No opportunity to cross -examine. No
opportunity to observe his demeanor in

courtroom. He could have been mistaken
in his identity. 76 years old, after

Memory problems as we grow older.

Reasonable doubt.

Not guilty.

Kiss it off, detective.

Kiss it off?

What do you mean, kiss it off?

The minute defense counsel hears about
Polianakis, they'll ask for a dismissal.

And?

I'm not going to oppose him.

How did I guess?

The reason I'm not going to oppose it is
to avoid double jeopardy attaching.

Wait, please, I don't understand, sir.
What are you saying?

If we go to trial and lose, that's it.

But on the other hand, if I dismiss
before the trial starts and you police

build me a winnable case, we can refile
the charges against Nolan at that time.

Well, that's not that continuance
business all over again. Well, sure,

you're worried about is taking a chance
and losing a big case with the press

looking at you.

So it's much easier to dump out a
template and blame it on the police

department. Our business is concluded.

No, wait, Mr. Burke.

Our case is fairly till Monday, right?

So if we come up with something by then,
would you be willing to go ahead with

it? Of course. But I need direct
evidence.

Preferably eyewitness testimony by a
reliable witness of good character.

Great. Maybe there was a convention of
nuns in the room.

Would you please get her out of here?
Yes, sir. You've got no problem with me.

We'll do what we can, sir.

We want to talk to you about Mr.
Polianakis.

Mind if we come in, ma 'am?

No.

Hello.

We were very sorry to hear about your
friend, Mrs. Skimmins. We know that you

and Mr.

Polianakis were very close.

Yes.

He was a wonderful man.

Thoughtful of life right up to the end.

Just sit down.

Thank you.

Just before they took him to the
hospital, he brought me a catalog from

museum. He said we'd go as soon as he
got better.

Then, of course, he never left the
hospital.

And I very seldom leave my room anymore.

So much crime these days.

Especially against old people.

Walking victims, that's what they say,
don't they?

Oh, could I get you some tea? Oh,
nothing, thank you. Thank you.

Chris, are you sure you don't need
anything?

No, thank you.

Mrs. Kimmons, we know it's been a long
time, but we would like you to try and

recall anything that you might have seen
or heard on the day Mr.

Polinakis was assaulted.

Well, I didn't see or hear anything. I
thought I explained all that to you

before.

Mrs. Kimmons, we have had a very
frustrating day.

The assistant DA has told us unless
another witness comes forth, he's going

throw this case out of court.

And Leonard Nolan, who beat up your
friend, will never be brought to justice

that crime.

What? I can't think it's as serious as
all that.

Why, you can bear witness to what Mr.

Polianakis said and the identification
that he made at your headquarters.

It's just not that simple.

It's nice and warm in here, huh?

Yes. So Mr. Nolan has not been fooling
around with the boilers anymore?

No, everything's very well tended.

He even painted the halls a few months
ago.

Nice guy.

I guess I'm lucky to have this
apartment.

A woman I know, when they changed her
place into a co -op, she had nowhere to

go.

At least I have a roof over my head.

I should count my blessings, shouldn't
I?

Yes, ma 'am.

Let's go.

Oh, that poor woman.

She's scared to death of everything.

Yeah, well, she better get ready.

No one's not going to harass his tenants
with this court case pending, but as

soon as it's settled, he's going to
throw them all out of here.

So where are we?

Nowhere.

Hey, it's late. You want to pick up on
this tomorrow?

Yeah. You okay?

Do me a favor, will you?

See a doctor or something.

There's laws against chocolate.

I suggest now that you've opened that.
No, no, please. I'd like to take this.

For a friend.

Maybe gift wrap.

You're cooking too, kid.

at least three days after a missed
period.

I did that.

Add contents of vial into test tube
which contains test chemicals.

First take morning urine.

Take first morning

Urine.

Drop one drop into test tube, shake
vigorously, place test tube in holder,

and leave undisturbed for two hours
before reading the results.

Hi. Why aren't you with the doctor?

Ignoring this will not make it go away,
Christine. Now you have to be

responsible here. We're talking about a
human life, a little...

Precious, dependent, little person,
Christine. Not some boyfriend you can

dump whenever you get tired of him. Mary
Beth. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I did not

intend to lecture you, Christine, but I
get so frustrated. Very frustrated.

I guess I'm not.

What do you mean, guess?

All right, I'm not.

Oh.

Not pregnant.

Well, that's good.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

What, what, you're not happy?

No, I am.

Especially under these conditions.

Ideal.

What?

I don't know.

I'm 38 years old, Mary Beth.

And the biological clock is just ticking
away here, and there's nothing I can do

to stop it.

And if I'm going to have a baby, I
better have one soon, or I'm never going

have one at all.

Last couple of days, I was talking to
it.

Why is everything so complicated?

Well, what is complicated? Get married.
You and Neil get married and have a

baby. Now, people do that every day. No,
I don't even want to have a baby. Well,

what are we talking about here, then?
What do you want? I don't know what I

want. What I don't want is somebody
telling me I can't have.

That's not fair.

Men choose, 60, 70, 80 years old,
they're still deciding to...

Decide now.

Because that's the way it is.

Come on, we're going to Rikers Island
this morning.

Yeah, Anthony Nunzio, that punk that's
working for Nolan, he went up for Stoney

Woods. We were in the middle of
something important here, Christine.

So we will discuss it on the way to
Rikers Island, all right? It will be a

totally captive audience, and you know
that's how you love it.

All right, I'm just trying to be a
friend here is all. If you're not

in that, then forget it. It doesn't
matter.

We've got a case that will be dismissed
by Monday if we don't get off our

behinds.

My personal traumas can wait on this
case for long.

Come on.

See, now they're both acting like sweet
geeks.

They say that's why women live longer
than men, Victor.

They don't keep everything in.

Actuarially speaking, you could live
eight years longer if you could learn to

let your emotions out the way women do.

No kidding.

Think about it, Victor. Eight more years
with Bon Bon.

Bon Bon's history. That's what you said
about Blanche. Who's Blanche?

Meet her May at 6th Avenue.

Hey, she's going to night school taking
up pharmacy.

All right, let's do some business.

Go.

Who calls itself the vermin?

You say that on Sunday, somebody stole
your mother's bank.

Why should I talk to you? I know my
rights.

You should talk to us because you were
stupid enough to get caught again.

Which makes you sort of an idiot.

And a prime candidate for the persistent
felons program.

So you think this is news to me?

So, that was just the bad news.

The good news is you'll be eligible for
Medicare when you get out.

Mr. Nunzio, in your statement before the
grand jury, you testified that you were

not present on the day of Mr.
Polianakis' assault.

You said, quote, Nolan handled that
himself. He said he was better with

So Mickey and I, we just did some little
jobs for him.

Busting up the boiler, tearing down some
mailboxes.

If I change my mind about that, are you
saying that maybe you could help me out

on this new beef?

No. What were you saying?

Depending on what you do for us.

What do you mean?

Actually,

that's wrong.

Because I was in the room when...

Nolan beat up the old guys. See, I
didn't know he was going to do it before

got there. And then after we started, I
asked him to stop.

Nolan is not a guy you want to mess
with.

So I was afraid to tell you all this.

Before.

Would you be willing to testify to that
in court?

When?

Let's go.

Okay.

What are

you

doing?

What are you doing?

I want to know what you are doing.

I am making a phone call. A personal
phone call.

I told you I would not call the DA until
we discussed it tomorrow.

Okay?

Sorry?

Uh,

yeah, Neil Riley, please.

Christine Kagan calling.

Oh, um, I thought it was too back today.

I see.

No, that's all right. Thank you. There's
no problem.

It's this damn case, Mary Beth. I just
hate it.

Remember when we first collared, Nolan?

Dory McKenna.

I'll tell you, I really loved that man.
I did.

But he was much more interested in
packing the white powder up his nose

was in me.

And now, Neil Reilly.

Yeah, his secretary just told me he's
still out of town on business.

And he's not.

What's the problem? I don't understand.

Because when she said it to me, I
thought she was lying.

Oh. It made me just so embarrassed.

Possessive.

Well, it happens.

But I hate being embarrassed. I just...
I just hate it.

Oh, now, wait here.

Don't tell me.

Christine Cagney has experienced a human
emotion.

A quick pick up the rug and sweep it
under again.

You want to come home and have dinner
with me instead? No, I'm having dinner

with Charlie tonight. Oh, nice.

Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow.

Say hi to your dad for me. No.

No, honest, Dad, it's okay.

I do... No, I do understand.

It wasn't even a big deal, honest. I
just wanted to talk to you.

Look at your face.

Yeah? Okay, no next week's good.

And put a buck in the slot machine for
me, okay?

All right.

Bye, Charlie.

Section 26501 of the penal law.
Possession of a checker stick or a kung

is criminal possession of a weapon in
the fourth degree, a class A

Now, did you know that, Marcus?

Yes.

What about a 170 .02?

Divestiture of jurisdiction by
indictment.

Now, what about the old 180 .45?

Sports bribes receiving.

Felony or misdemeanor?

Felony. Classy.

You know what your problem is, Mark?

You study too much.

You're going to turn into one of those
hunched old people who've got bad eyes,

no social life, or girls.

No more kids.

No more horseback riding.

Yes.

And with sergeant stripes.

Yeah, I said I'm fine.

All right.

Thank you very much. Morning, Christine.

How was your dad?

Thank you.

We went to Atlantic City.

about Nunzio's testimony.

You were what?

You told me that you would not talk to
him until we had talked about it

first. It doesn't matter.

Burke was not interested.

Oh.

Why not?

Because Nunzio's a junkie with a record
and his testimony would never hold up in

court.

What a surprise.

It doesn't matter because I think I'm on
to something else anyway. Do I want to

hear this, Christine?

Uh -huh.

Mrs. Skimmins.

Oh, wait, no, don't tell me.

We are going to...

We're going to get Mrs. Skimmins to tell
the truth.

Sit down.

Look at this.

In her original statement to us, she
said that she went down to Mr.

apartment, knocked on the door to pick
him up for their weekly trip to the

library. There was no answer. She became
very frightened, and so she called us.

Yeah. All right? That call has been
logged in here at 9 .48 a .m. on a

Now I've called the library.

And on Tuesdays and Thursdays, they do
not open until noon.

Well, maybe she went by his apartment
early.

Maybe. But I don't think so.

I think she saw something that
frightened her.

I think she saw Leonard Nolan let
himself into that apartment, shut the

and then she called us.

Good. You are good.

Right, because you're frightened?

Yes, I see and hear such dreadful
things. You make me very sad, Mrs.

and angry.

I mean, a nice woman like her, she feels
so frightened, she keeps herself a

prisoner in her own apartment.

This is the kind of thing that keeps me
going to my job every day, trying to

make things better.

Although sometimes it seems like it's
impossible even to make a dent, even.

I appreciate what you police are doing.

I'm glad someone's trying, at least. I
guess that's my point, I guess. You see,

trying at least is better than doing
something.

Frustrating. A bad man like Leonard
Nolan, he can take it, bend it, turn it

around, make the rest of us feel like
monkeys.

Poor Mr.

Polianakis. He got so frustrated going
to court time after time. I know. Do we

know? But I regret it because, you see,
the system was eventually going to work

because Mr. Polianakis was doing his
part. But when we don't have anybody to

help us, the truth is that we don't
really stand a chance.

Mrs. Skimmins, we know you're
frightened.

But the truth is, we need your testimony
in court.

Ma 'am, there's very few things I know
for sure in the world. But one of them

that Leonard Nolan brutally assaulted
Mr. George Poulianakis.

Had he not done so, maybe Mr.
Poulianakis would still be here today,

Leonard Nolan deserves to be punished
for that despicable act.

But the way things stand now, we're
going to have to wait for God to do it.

That is, unless you come forward, Mr.
Skimmins, and give us the help that we

need.

I thought Mr. Nolan come in, so I
hurried back into my apartment.

I looked through my peephole, and I saw
him going into Mr.

Polianakis' apartment.

How did he get in?

He used his passkey.

And then what happened?

Even through the door, I could hear Mr.

Polianakis crying out for help.

That's when I called you. Now, I know I
should have done something more, but I

didn't know what else to do.

You did fine, ma 'am.

Did you see Mr.

Nolan? Again that day?

Yes, I watched him come out of the
apartment. He was carrying Mr.

Polianakis' walker.

I waited till he'd gone.

Then I tried the door, but I guess Mr.
Nolan had locked it.

I called out to Mr.

Polianakis and said, Hold on.

There's help coming.

Then I went back to my apartment and
waited for the police to arrive.

Thank you, Mrs. Gimmons.

We know that that was hard for you.

Do we have a case?

Just one last question.

You never came forward before with this
information.

In court, the defense lawyer would want
to know why.

I'm not a brave woman, Mr. Burke.

For the last ten years, I haven't asked
much of life just not to be hurt.

I was afraid Mr.

Nolan would retaliate against me.

That's all I could think of.

I feel very sorry and ashamed.

That's not a way to live, is it?

Well, you're doing what needs to be done
right now.

Huh?

Huh?

We've got a case.

But if you don't mind, I'll need just a
few hours of your time to have your

statement transcribed.

Oh, don't worry about it, ma 'am. I'll
tell you what we'll do. We will come

and pick you up and take you home, okay?

Oh, that's very kind of you. But it's an
easy bus ride from here.

I was thinking I might like to stop at
the museum on the way. Good for you.

It's wonderful.

And you were wonderful. And if you need
anything, you just give us a call. I'll

tell you what, we'll pick you up for
court on Monday.

Eight o 'clock?

7 .15, we'll take you to breakfast.
That's a nice idea.

Have you ever had honey -baked ham and
eggs at Stan's? Fabulous. Forget Stan's.

Chez Maurice, espresso and crepes. You
like Belgian waffles?

Ladies, do you think we could discuss
menus on Monday?

Monday. See you then. And, by the way,
thanks.

So we did good. Yeah, we did good.

Very good.

You're wonderful with witnesses.

Honest, I really admire the way you
handle witnesses.

Yeah? Well, you were the one who put the
whole thing together, Christine.

So we're a terrific team.

This is true.

What do you say we go out and celebrate
how terrific we are?

Oh, you mean now?

What? Oh, you've got Harvey and the
kids, right?

No, I was just thinking that I would
study tonight for the sergeant's exam.

Tonight? You've got six months.

Oh, you'll probably study the night
before I'm passed, won't you?

Probably. Well, I need six months,
Christine. No.

Five months and 29 days, huh?

Tonight?

What do you say we get five?

Okay.

Can you believe that creep?

Weak script.

Mediocre concept.

But it complimented the production
value.

Doesn't anybody know what a producer
does?

Manny, sweetheart.

What? Walk and talk, Manny. Walk and
talk.

Did you call her?

Okay. Let's introduce St. Harvey.

Huh? The best man in America.

He's not a saint.

Okay. He's my sweetheart.

Okay.

Okay.

What about this Neil person?

Nothing. What?

Nothing? You told me to talk to him. I
did.

I talked to him this morning. He called
me to tell me how much he liked me.

Oh, that's not nothing. That's
something.

I'm so easy to be around.

I'm such an undemanding person.

And I'm a cactus.

I beg your pardon? I'm a cactus.

She's a fern.

Oh, his wife is a fern?

She's constant watering.

And I didn't mean any attention at all.
That's what you told me.

Nothing.

What a bastard.

I hope he gives a piece of your mind.

But it's not him. It's not him. What do
you mean it's not him? It isn't. Not

Neil is not disturbing of you, my
partner.

You know, I want you to think that every
man in the whole world is like that

miserable Neil.

No.

No, there's a good man out there for
you. I know it. Mary Beth, the truth is

wouldn't even know a good man if I ran
over him.

Bad luck. You had bad luck.

No, it isn't bad luck. I picked them.

Every single one of them. There's the
rug.

I chose them.

It was me.

That doesn't make sense.

It makes perfect sense because if I
chose them, then it takes all the

responsibility off of me to make a
permanent commitment to any one of them.

Okay.

wants to live alone that's okay that the
people do that but that isn't all i

want i don't want just that there's a
part of me there's a very big part of me

that would like to have a husband and a
baby like you and a family

somebody that i can connect with it it's
more than just me all by myself i'd be

a very good mother i know that i know
that No, you'd think I'd be a lousy

mother. I probably would. My kids would
end up on the couch, 20 years in

therapy, blaming me for everything.

And what about being the first female
police commissioner?

How do you handle all that? I don't know
how to do it. I don't know either.

It's very hard.

It's more than hard. It's impossible.

You know, I thought I had it all figured
out for myself.

I did. I liked everything that it was. I
just loved it.

And then... I didn't like anything that
I had no more. Everything new and

everything different.

And I don't know how to change it.

I don't know what it is anymore that I
want my breath. I'm very confused and I

just hate it.

Well, I, for one, am very proud of you.

What? I'm proud of you. I'm proud of you
because you didn't sweep it under the

rug.

You let it out and let it hit the air.

You gave sound to the thoughts.

Sound and air, and then you can start to
deal with it.

to be sick on the bar.

Are you going to be sick? No. No? No,
let's call Harvey. Let's call Harvey and

invite him to come down and join us.

You sweetheart, Harvey.

I love Harvey.

Yeah, here, thank you.

So what are you going to do?

What am I going to do about what?

Well, I mean, what do you think?

About what?

Your life.

Did you ever see Gone with the Wind?

Certainly. Remember Scarlett O 'Hara?

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

That was Fred Butler.

I know Scarlett and me.

I'm going to think about it tomorrow.
