Lacey, any rookie knows how to seal an evidence bag.

You can consider this an official oral reprimand.

I sealed the envelope, Christine.

Then it came open by accident.

Dory's a good cop. He knows what it means to tamper with evidence.

He helped Dory get off dope.

Yeah. What was he doing in a shooting gallery with half a gram of cocaine?

He's hooked. Still, you can see it when you look at him. And you too, Christine.

You're hooked on Dory McKenna, same as he is on drugs.

I know you want to ask me. What? Ask me about Driscoll. Ask me if I did it. You

don't know nothing!

Let me help you out.

Get yourself another partner. baby.

Britt?

What are you doing?

Nothing. Let's go back to school.

I don't know what it is. Maybe I can help you find it.

My jacket. Seems to have disappeared.

Oh, you see?

That's the trouble with you neat freaks.

You can't remember where you put things.

The jacket's in your closet.

Oh, yeah?

The only thing in my closet is a...

Bunch of very ugly shirts, Dory, none of them in my size.

That was after I tripped over your barbell.

You're right, I am a slob.

I am.

But I'm a slob.

Dory!

Dory, stop it. I'll clean up later.

I've got to go to work.

I'll clean up later, I promise. I have to go to work.

You have to let me go.

Be honest.

What? You think I'm crowding you?

No.

I don't know whose apartment this is sometimes.

But I do love having you here.

Don't worry. I have got to go. I have to meet Mary Beth at 6 .30.

Come on. Let me go. Come on.

Let me go.

Don't. Please.

Listen.

What do we think about changing all this, huh?

This?

Yeah.

The whole thing here.

If I sounded like I wanted out, I don't.

No, no.

I was talking about making things more permanent.

I mean, since I am here most of the time anyway.

You mean moving in together?

Well, a lot of people do it.

Some even like it.

Well, I think about it.

I do. More with you than anybody. You're not ready yet, right?

Do you hate me?

What do you think, huh?

And this doctor has more good news.

Back injuries are very unpredictable, he says.

So he wants Hoff to move as little as possible.

You know what that means?

I'm sorry, what?

He can't get out of bed.

For how long?

Until the muscle spasm stops.

Doctor couldn't say how long that would be.

$100 he charged for that.

So can't Harvey's mother help out?

You're in the Bahamas, remember?

She went on a cruise, plan Bingo. Oh, yeah.

Nursing the patient.

Cass.

Okay, everybody, heads up. They're on their way.

Ryan. No.

I'm cool, but it's my friend.

What happened to

you?

Oh, the biking.

Come on, get going, get going, come on.

Oh, what do we got here? What do you call this here, huh?

Dope, I call it.

You have the right to remain silent. Give me your hand.

You give up the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used

against you in a court of law.

You have the right to speak to an attorney and have an attorney present

questioning. If you so desire and can't afford one, an attorney will be

appointed for you, free of charge.

Of course I know who he is.

Possession, one count, cocaine.

Dory, it's crazy down here. No, I don't think she's come down. I just... I

thought you'd like to know.

You called Dory about the Driscoll thing?

It was a private conversation, wasn't it?

Why are we talking about my calling?

Driscoll was Dory's sponsor in the detox program.

I met him last fall at a softball game.

He helped Dory get off dope. Yeah.

What was he doing in a shooting gallery with half a gram of cocaine?

I don't know.

Neither does Dory.

Well,

I wish you hadn't called him, Chris. I mean, he can't do anything about it. It

makes you personally involved.

This boy has been like a brother to Dory. That's how he talks about him. I

thought he would like to know.

He was so persistent. Excuse me, ladies.

Did you fill out these reports?

Yeah, what?

I don't understand Chinese. Do you want to translate them for me?

It's not Chinese, Coleman. That's English.

You know what you have to call this?

A scratch?

Sorry. A superficial knife wound?

Intramuscular laceration.

Bail bondsman provides a legitimate service.

You leave your card on winos. I'm entitled to advertise.

And corpses.

Sold every once in a while. Take a long shot. We made the rate two hours ago.

How many of you hooked so far? I am arranging bail for 11 of your detainees.

Lieutenant, we're running out of holding space here. Well, tell it to the

taxpayers, Coleman.

I'm just trying to speed up the process.

Excuse me, do you have a quarter? My old lady keeps hanging up on me. Ask him,

will you? He makes more money than I do.

You got a minute?

That coke wasn't his.

Jimmy was trying to sponsor some guy for the program.

Who? Well, who knows?

He called himself Kevin Smith.

When Jimmy heard, he went back on speedballs.

He went to the gallery to get him out.

When you moved in, Kevin got away.

So it's all a big mistake?

How many perps have you collared who say exactly the same thing?

They weren't, Jimmy Driftwood.

Dory, look, I know what he means to you.

And I know he got you through a really rough time. He saved my life.

You think he's going to lie to me about something like this? I don't know.

Anyway, it's up to a judge now.

Yeah, sure.

Jimmy's an ex -user.

A persistent felon candidate.

The judge is going to listen real hard and then throw the key away.

Dory, I don't know what you want from me.

It's less than half a gram.

Two big possession charge.

Kind of gets lost in the shuffle every day.

I worked with him.

Hey, Chris.

I'll talk to you later.

I bet there is something floating in here.

It's probably a little piece of shell. Just filling it out, Mom.

My mother's softball age never had shells in them. Of course not. And they

weren't runny either.

She used to break up the toast in them for me.

Mom, you hurt your back, not your hands. You can break up toast.

Wouldn't be the same.

Mom, look what Harry Jr.

did. I did not.

Michael, those are school clothes.

It wasn't my fault.

Liar. You wouldn't give me the syrup. Don't you call your brother a liar. You

get in the bathroom. You're going to be late for school. You have to fight in

here. I wasn't fighting. He was.

Mary Beth, I need a pain pill.

Honey, you get another one in an hour and 26 minutes.

Oh, come on. You got to be kidding.

Somehow, Hoff, I'm not in the mood to kid.

Who was on duty in the evidence room, sir?

Minnelli. And he says it came to him just like that. I could have sworn it

secured, sir.

Yeah, well, it's not secure now.

The seal is broken.

The chain of evidence is broken, and the case is right out the window, and

Driscoll James D. walks.

Dammit, Lacey, any rookie knows how to seal an evidence bag.

Lieutenant. It was a zoo out there yesterday. I know that, and this

case is just a rinky -dink possession, but that is no excuse.

What was the purpose of this raid, Detective Lacey?

To apprehend suspects, sir.

To obtain information on dealers, sir. Right.

But we can't obtain information from people we can't keep.

Can we, Detective Lacey? No, sir.

Detective Lacey, you can consider this an official oral reprimand.

Yes, sir.

Get up.

Very good.

Hey, you know the old lady kept me up all night?

Hey, you didn't hear what went down, did you?

Hey, after I got in the door, there must have been about, I figure, 20 of them.

I think they had some kind of paramilitary thing going on.

They were all trained like soldiers.

Of course, at the beginning I was kind of tense, you know, but... Victor, I

don't have time to hear about a Clint Eastwood movie.

You really think this will make a good Clint Eastwood movie?

Victor, enough, okay?

Yeah.

See?

Oh, hi.

Oh. I got a card from the Guardian.

Just left Rome and it's on its way to Columbia.

No.

I just went down the evidence locker.

Dory was there yesterday.

His name's on the sign -up sheet.

So he had business there.

Boy, that's a big coincidence, huh?

I mean, one day Dory's in the evidence room, and the next day his friend's case

is thrown out.

Well, Mary Beth, he could have had a million reasons for being in that room.

He plays racquetball with Minnelli.

I sealed the envelope, Christine.

Then it came open by accident.

Dory's a good cop.

He knows what it means to tamper with evidence.

Does he?

Like he knew what it meant to be a responsible backup to me?

Or he knew what it meant to bring dope into my home?

Harv never forgave him, never!

Is that what all this is about?

Huh?

Something that happened two years ago?

Absolutely. Well, I'm real bored with it.

Dory kicked the habit. He has apologized.

Right. Now, I don't know what else he has to do to please you and old Harv.

The news is good, Mary Beth. You don't ever have to invite Dory or me to your

home for dinner ever again.

Isn't that great?

Shut up.

Listen, I'll meet you at Haggerty's tomorrow for breakfast.

You got it.

I'm glad it worked out, Jimmy.

News travels fast.

Jimmy

left

a message on my machine.

A lot of knots.

I know. It's not one of my ten best days.

Want to talk about it?

No, not really.

I ran into Frank Minnelli.

You said you came by to see him when he was on duty yesterday.

Oh, yeah.

Needed some lab reports.

Is that what's bothering you?

Jenny?

Yeah, it bothers me.

Well, it shouldn't. He was clean.

Well, we'll never know for sure.

You hear yourself?

You hear yourself?

That's why Jimmy never had a chance against the system.

It doesn't care that he's recovering from a disease.

It doesn't care that he's been busted by mistake. Just throw the junkie back in

prison with the rest of the garbage. And then you wonder why he starts using

again. Well, you're not really being very objective.

Objective? You want me to be objective?

The man spent more nights up with me than I want to remember.

I screamed at him. I hit him.

And still he stayed with me.

He wouldn't give up on me. And he wouldn't let me give up on myself.

Jimmy's done that for lots of people.

Still, the justice system would have sent him to hell anyway.

Still, you gotta... Still, you gotta break.

Just believe me, baby.

This is the best way it could happen.

I'm sorry the remote on the TV isn't working.

Then you have to watch soap operas until Hoff Jr. gets back from school.

Yeah, tomato soup.

In the thermos.

Yes, made with milk.

No, Hoff. I don't know what it's like to spend an entire week in bed, but I'd

certainly like to find out.

Goodbye.

Hiya.

Hiya.

Good morning, ladies.

I got this message for you about a half an hour ago.

Isn't that call you made in the raid two days ago? Yeah. That guy couldn't make

bail. They took him to Rikers.

Thanks, Coleman. No problem.

Ernie Cade. Let's make a deal.

I know why you roused at us.

It's not the little guy like me that you're interested in, is it?

wants to tell you who the sources are.

Am I right?

Yeah. But so far, all you've done is tap dance and scratch.

It's coke, Bucks.

I used to free base.

Not anymore.

You know what I think, Ernie?

I think you're playing games.

Well, now you haven't told me what you can do for me.

I'm facing a lot of... in here.

If your information checks out, then we talk about a deal.

Hey, I think I got a right to know.

Hey, take it or leave it.

Okay.

Yeah, okay.

They got a system for getting the stuff into the city.

I know something about their traps.

What?

move them around.

It's a different place every week, you know?

Movable drops.

That's it?

Great.

Thanks for wasting our time, Ernie. We just love driving out here for no reason

at all. No, no, no, wait, wait. That's not all. I can tell you. No, forget it!

You've been dancing us around here.

No, no, I swear I'm not. I swear on my mother's grave. Please.

He gets the stuff from the big man, and then he takes it and sells it. All of it

now.

He's black.

He's a classy guy.

A smooth talker.

You want to just give us the name, Ernie?

J .D.

I think his real name.

We'll be in touch.

And so then he says to me, hey, man, man, I want to talk to you.

So he says to me, man, mind you, he had about two feet of white powder on his

lip. He says, man, I swear I was just eating a sugar donut, sure enough.

Funny, huh?

Man, it was pathetic.

Because it's us.

You and me.

You know something, son?

It's harder for a cokehead to quit than any other kind of junkie.

But then I guess you know that already.

Today.

Man, I was sure I was going to give in.

You can do that if you want to.

I mean, you want to snort your brains out the rest of your life.

Well, you can trust me.

And the rest of the group.

But we'll always be right here.

We're your family now.

Thanks. All right, it's going to be all right, you hear?

It's going to be all right. Now you go on home and get some sleep.

I'll call you the first thing in the morning.

Well, hi.

Looking for Dory?

Or are you looking for me?

Dory.

Well, he left right after the meeting about 30 minutes ago.

Thanks. Hey, uh, wait a minute.

You know, we have never really talked.

Unless you count the other day when you both were reading me my rights.

I don't think we have much to talk about.

I mean, you don't take no bull, do you?

And you got Dory's number, and you're not afraid to fight.

Well, I'm like that, too.

You do this a lot?

Well, as much as I can.

You see, well, I was a hardcore user.

Look, why don't you come on in?

But one day, I lucked out.

And I got this program instead of prison.

And now, I'm just trying to give a little of it back.

Sometimes, well, it's not that easy.

Some of these people who are here at this meeting tonight, they'll be using

again in six months.

But every once in a while, somebody like Dory will walk through.

And it will stick, don't you know?

And it makes the whole thing worthwhile.

So you have a lot of people come through here?

Mm -hmm.

No username.

Ernie Cade?

Ernie Cade?

Of course.

Oh, Ernie.

He's my lowest cause.

Every week he tells me he's going to kick the hat.

Say, you're not really looking for Ernie, are you? I mean, he's not a bad

A little crazy, but he's not bad.

Hand me the notes.

Put down the phone in the kitchen and go... No, don't hang up, Michael.

I... Just a second.

Why did you tell me you were going to court this morning?

Michael, tell Daddy I'll call him right back. No, I... I don't want to hang up.

B. Culver, the purse snatch I collared when I was off duty.

Michael, Daddy didn't mean to say that word.

No, he... Michael, you know that he's not been feeling well.

Just a minute.

I think, uh... We should talk to Lieutenant about what we got from Ernie

What'd we get?

Not enough for a warrant.

He'd let us right out of his office.

Michael, tell Daddy I'll call him right back, okay?

You can't ignore or leave, Christine.

What leave, Mary Beth?

Ernie Cade's one of the biggest con artists in the world.

He's famous for phony tips.

Well, it's the only thing we have.

I'm late for court, so I don't have time to argue with you. I'll talk to the

lieutenant myself.

When I get back, you won't be back the whole day.

This is not your case. It is our case. We have nothing concrete, so spit on it

till I get back.

You're hating Pat, honey.

Yeah, about 30 of them. Heavily armed, combat trained.

You, Victor, as Becky single -handedly took him out, right?

Yeah. Can you think Robert Redford would do a TV series about a Polish cop?

I don't know. Yeah?

To get something for me. Yeah.

Hey, Lacey, I never showed you... Yeah.

Driscoll did make bail before his case was dropped. I remember the guy who

posted it for him when his name popped up on the computer.

Here it is.

McGinnis. Joseph T.

Funny kind of a guy, you know?

Didn't smile or nothing. Saw a Union trucker's card in his wallet.

Would you do one more favor for me, please? Like what?

McGinnis, Joseph T.

Where does he live or work?

You know, sergeants are very busy people. I know, I know.

I'll return the favor.

Can you keep his becky out of here?

Kind of a jerk lately, huh? You don't have to say it.

I have been.

Well, you're sick.

No excuse.

I'm going to do better.

I promise.

Hi, babe.

Hey, man.

Wait, what?

Do you want me to see it?

No.

little marshmallows.

What if I get you the big marshmallows and the scissors?

Christine said she needed a ride this morning.

Now she overslept. She's in the shower.

Well, come in, Mary Beth.

Relax.

We ought to be able to get through five minutes together.

You don't seem very relaxed yourself.

Look, I know you don't like me. I don't think this is the time or the place...

You and her don't like me, and I don't think you ever will, but that doesn't

give you the right to run Chris's life.

You have no right to say that that's what I'm doing. What are you pushing

thing with Jimmy for?

Because I trust him, and you don't trust me, and you don't want Chris to trust

me?

Maybe you think I'm, uh... I'm still using, huh?

I don't want to talk about it.

I guess Chris couldn't tell you that she saw Jimmy the other night, huh?

Yeah, that's right. She's not as self -righteous as you are. She doesn't

that he's lying just because the man was on drugs once.

Hi, Mary Beth. I'm sorry I'm late.

I'll see you in the car.

Professional. Talk it to a suspect without telling me. Driscoll is not a

suspect. Because you don't want him to be because you don't listen. He says you

don't know what you're talking about.

Lacey, got that information on the Driscoll case.

McGinnis is a truck driver. The union says he works on the island, Bellport.

Freight company called Pierce Transport.

Yell me.

Thank you.

This could link Driscoll to the move of the drop show Garcade told us about.

I don't know what I'm talking about.

What do you think you're doing?

I'm doing my job.

Your job?

Kate is our case. It isn't your case.

But it's okay if you talk to Driscoll without telling me.

I went to see Dory. That was not on purpose.

I don't know you anymore, Christine.

I followed up on Kate because I knew you wouldn't. Because you see, Dory McKenna

and you come up with some more excuses. Get off saying that.

If Jim Driscoll is dealing drugs, Dory is not involved in it.

Dory's on the edge.

A man I saw this morning could very well have tampered with evidence, and I

think he did. Because you want to think so.

What is it, are you jealous?

Is that it? I get something for myself that is outside this job, and you can't

handle it.

You're not even making sense.

Dory is not a perfect person, Mary Beth.

He is not the great Harvey Lacey.

And who'd want it?

I'm so sick of hearing about St. Harvey in your hallowed home.

Well, I know Dory, and he wouldn't lie to me.

He's lying to you.

He's lying to himself.

He's still sick.

He hasn't been on coke in over a year, and you know it. In his head. In his

head. He's hooked still. You can see it when you look at him.

What the hell do you know about it? And you too, Christine.

You're hooked on Dorian McKenna, same as he is on drugs.

Only you can't see it.

I don't have to talk to you.

Yes, you do. For God's sake, you watch it. Would you listen to the truth here

for once? Don't push. Get your hands off of me. This man could be guilty of a

serious crime.

And you.

You're willing to throw away your career and mine to protect him.

You're hurting a lot of people, Christine, and it's wrong. And you know

Fine, Mary Beth.

Fine. You know everything.

You know the whole truth now.

You don't know nothing.

So let me fix it for you.

Let me help you out.

You get yourself another partner, baby.

I've been on some big takeout.

This one's a cemetery.

Did you hear what I just said?

Yeah. Something about, um, truck driver, uh, selling Jimmy out.

Mm -hmm. He works for a freight company. We got a tip about movable drives.

Truck drivers can do that.

Of course that makes him a dealer, right?

Did you hear a coincidence?

There are too many of them, Dory.

Look at me.

We've got to talk.

You know, Jimmy's uncle owns a freight company.

He's a nice guy.

He bailed Jimmy out. He probably sent down one of his drivers.

But the uncle's involved.

Oh, God, don't you ever quit. That is my job. I'm not supposed to quit.

Okay.

Why don't you check out the freight company?

You'll probably find out you're wasting your time.

Maybe so.

Dory, don't talk to Driscoll.

Do you understand me?

Thanks for your voter trust.

I'll do the same for you sometime.

You want to talk to both of you together?

She's not back from lunch yet, sir.

You know, you and Cagney weren't exactly quiet this morning.

Matter of fact, I think they might have heard you up in the Bronx.

I'm sorry, sir.

No, no, don't be sorry.

Everybody knows partners are supposed to slug it out sometimes.

So, straighten it out?

I don't think so, no, sir.

We'll talk about, um...

Reassignment? I don't know, sir.

Maybe something temporary?

You want to talk about it at all?

I do, sir, very much.

But not without Cagney.

You know, I guess I could play marriage counselor here.

I could say all the things that I'm supposed to say about partnership.

I could tell you to give a little if you can, because she would, too.

But the truth is, Lacey,

I trust your judgment.

And Cagney's.

So, whenever you want to talk, I'm here.

I appreciate it, Lieutenant.

Should I shut the door? Yeah, please.

He wanted to talk to both of us together.

I'm ready now.

Okay.

We could check out the freight company ourselves.

And if there's anything there, then we could bring the lieutenant to it.

I could do that.

Coleman remembers McGinnis. He could give us a solid description.

You know, I don't know which way to go.

I mean, Wambaugh made big bucks off novels.

Maybe I should go that way, you know?

I mean, I could start with the raid.

Then add a lot of sect.

And then how I feel about standing alone between New York and the creeps out to

destroy it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And they'll make a miniseries out of it. Huh?

Looks like everybody's gone home.

Yeah, it's late.

We could give a couple hours, you know.

Save ourselves a trip later.

What did he say?

That could be McGinnis, huh?

What do you think?

It's not a drop. Why do you leave it here in the middle of nowhere? It's

It's locked.

We're going to need a warrant.

Somebody shows up with the key.

If you want to get a warrant, say so.

I said we'd stay.

I don't want to be right about Dory.

It's not important that I be right about Dory. It's important that I be able to

talk to you.

I talk to you.

Sounds like you're going to anyway.

I'm feeling ashamed of myself.

I'm ashamed I shoved in the ladies' room.

I'm ashamed I went behind your back to talk to Sergeant Coleman.

And I'm ashamed I said it was Harvey that never forgave Dory.

Because it was me.

I was holding on to bad feelings.

I acted small about it.

And I owe you an apology.

I'm sorry.

I said two more things.

I got a routine on evidence.

Make sure I do everything.

But that day we brought in Driscoll, what I have, I had half a dozen, nine,

envelopes.

Maybe I didn't stick it down right.

Maybe Minnelli screwed up.

Maybe the thing fell off a shelf.

Who knows?

Maybe Martians came down from the moon.

Blew the thing open.

Point is, I don't know.

And...

If Dory said to you he didn't do anything, and you believe him, so do I.

Last thing, okay?

If you want to go on still, working together,

which I hope you do,

you have to keep your mouth off my family.

You keep your mouth off mine.

Deal.

Deal.

Jeez, I'm starving.

I am too, actually.

Want to order out for pizza?

Where?

Let's see what's in the glove compartment.

let's do it

We got him at a drop.

Driscoll's a distributor.

Everything he's... Everything he's said.

All wrapped.

What he did for me.

Nothing.

Nothing.

It's to keep me from going back now, too.

There's you, Dory.

I can't trust me.

Why not?

Come on, Christine.

You don't even trust me.

You say you love me, but you don't trust me. I do.

Ask me.

I know you want to ask me. What?

Ask me about Driscoll.

Ask me if I did it.

I didn't, Christine.

I didn't.

I know how it looks.

I swear to God.

I did not fix the evidence.

You don't believe me?

I do.

I do believe you, Dory.
