All language subtitles for Cagney and Lacey s04e14 Rules of the Game.eng

You've got to be kidding, Coleman. Two
plastic ashtrays?

You're not even being reasonable.

Is that your ashtray? Yes, it is.

Who said life was reasonable, Cagney?
The serial number doesn't match the one

who was assigned here. I know. I
switched with his Becky.

20 years, hard labor. What you
disorganized snobs fail to realize is

And I quote,

NYPD regulation number 5C301 requires a
quarterly inventory to confirm all

department -issued goods are present as
assigned.

That means no trading, kiddies.

Yellow is Becky's new favorite color.

What those ashtrays accounted for,
Cagney? I don't even smoke, Coleman.

It's only two plastic ashtrays. How am I
supposed to know which?

Well, here's one.

It's a long serial number.

Look it, you've got to figure it out.
The point is that all issue not in use

to return to the property clerk's
department.

You understand? In other words, if you
can't come up with the goods, you have

reimburse the department.

It's that simple.

Looks like you're going to have to ice
Bloomingdale's account this month,

Cagney.

Oh, what a shame, Victor. And I had such
a nice birthday present picked out for

you. Really?

Underwear. With days of the week on it.

Studded in rhinestones.

I tell you what, Cagney.

I'm going to save Monday's and Friday's
just being.

Oh, no. I wouldn't want you to deprive
Bon Bon.

Can I walk with you?

And you believe Coleman? He's
hyperventilating over pencil stuff.

Oh, give the sergeant a break. He's
doing his job.

You two ready to handle a very hot
potato?

The reward for which is you get to keep
your jobs.

Oh, it sounds like a very good incentive
to meet her.

Certainly an offer we can't refuse.

Right. You know about the murder of the
Hungarian diplomat? I read the papers,

sir.

Well, what the papers didn't tell you is
the political pressure that we're

getting to solve this one fast.

Even the FBI's got their nose in on it.

Captain Jack Hennessy, the 21st, has
been assigned to head up a special task

force. You two got lucky.

How so, sir? Well, Hennessy is the
rising star of the department.

Guy made captain at the age of 35.

And now he's bucking for deputy
inspector.

That's great.

Why us?

I don't know why.

Ask him when you meet him.

Number one police plaza, 11 a .m. this
morning.

Thank you, sir.

Thanks again.

I hate this dress. Why do I wear this
dress?

Mr. and Mrs. Laszlo Tabori exited the
Blue Danube restaurant at 9 .30 in the

evening of April 3.

They were accosted by a gunman who,
without provocation or warning, shot Mr.

Tabori straight through the heart, stole
his wallet, and ran.

And the one thing we've got going for us
is there were six witnesses in the

vicinity. In addition to Mrs. Tabori,
two other couples and an off -duty

witnessed the crime.

What we have in our hands here appears
to be a random, cold -blooded... I did

say appears, Frank.

Gentlemen, let me introduce... And
ladies, excuse me.

Detective.

I stand corrected and duly chastised.

Mr. Frank Oppenheimer, our liaison
officer from the Federal Bureau of

Investigation.

Frank, do you have anything you want to
add?

I think it's imperative we not lose
sight of the very real potential of

political motivation in this case.

Well, I'd say it's a little early to
focus in on any one angle, wouldn't you

say? We know this man was a freedom
fighter in 1956 and turned on his

compatriots. A lot of enemies.

As they say, we have quite a list of
possibilities.

Detectives, your assignments read as
follows.

Feinstein and Hubble, you'll head up the
decoy teams.

Uh, Cagney, you'll partner with me in
field investigations.

And Lacey, you'll be the liaison officer
here at headquarters.

Cabot and Melaris, you... Yes.

Pardon me, sir, but I was wondering if
you could get a uniformed officer to

handle the office, and then I would be
available for the field work.

Well, Detective Lacey, I appreciate the
suggestion, but I've put you exactly

where I want you.

I need a trained detective who
understands procedures and priorities to

the witness statements and field
reports.

Now, Cabot and Melaris, you'll be
checking out the gang activity in the

Yeah. Dolan, Moore.

Well, why don't you keep the book for a
couple of days and study it, just to be

sure? I have already told you it
happened too fast.

But you are sure he was Caucasian?

I think so.

Maybe a Puerto Rican.

Did he speak with an accent?

Nothing.

He said nothing.

He said he was about 30.

Yes.

Young.

Average weight and height. Yes.

I didn't get a very good look at him.

Now, if you'll excuse me, please, I have
much packing to do.

Mrs. Tavori, we would appreciate it if
you wouldn't leave town until we get all

this wrapped up.

You must realize this has been very
unpleasant for me.

There isn't much I can do here.

Please understand.

Thank you very much.

So what do you think?

Traumatized, aloof, and reclusive?

Or she just doesn't like Americans?

I don't know. Right now, I'd say all of
the above.

What do you say we compare notes over a
couple of beers?

Find a place that has peanuts on the
side you're on. The kind that are

in the shell.

In the shell? Yeah.

Salted.

Salted in the shell.

Yeah. I'm serious, Mary. Bad time is
passing by, and we're not getting any

younger. Harvey, you're depressing me.

I just think we're kidding ourselves if
we don't face up to the fact that we are

not going to be here forever.

You know when you started getting morbid
like this? When Fast Betty died.

That's exactly what I'm talking about.
One of us could be next.

Do you know that if you don't leave a
will, the state could take everything?

Our money, Mary Beth?

They'll build a lousy store or
something.

Bob, the kind of money we have, they'd
be lucky if they get a drainpipe.

Yeah? Well, all I know is it's our money
and our stuff, and I don't want the

lousy government sticking its nose in
who gets it.

Not exactly Rockefeller, dear Harv. Now,
what have we got that anybody would be

interested in?

What about the golden candlestick?

Yeah, well, what are you going to do
with it?

I don't know.

Leave it to Eileen in Chicago.

Eileen? She's your third cousin.

My second cousin was removed.

You never even met her.

I know, but my mother left her the other
one.

Mary Beth, it is solid gold.

What is Harv Jr. and Michael going to do
with one candlestick? Break it in half?

They go down to the antique store and
sell it the same thing your second

from Chicago would do if she got her
hands on it.

Now, what about my bowling trophies?

Oh, well, I thought that we would
bequeath those to the Museum of Natural

History.

the M .O. of that mugger who's been
scoring on the east side.

Could be.

Good decision I made to bring you in on
this task force.

I'm happy to be here.

Had my eye on you for a long time,
Cagney.

That Don Juan killer.

Good, clean caller.

Oh, thank you.

No question in my mind.

I like to work with winners, Cagney.

People on the move.

You're moving pretty fast yourself,
Captain. I heard about your promotion.

Corruption.

Recommendation for promotion.

Final word on that won't be down for a
few weeks.

According to the grapevine, I hear
there's no contest.

You can't believe everything you get on
the grapevine.

For instance, the word came down that
you could be a pretty hard -headed prima

donna to work with.

Uh -huh.

But I figured that any ambitious female
is going to be fair game for that kind

of turkey.

Especially a very attractive one.

It doesn't bother me.

I can handle the temperament with the
talent.

Besides, I used to get those same kind
of shots when I was an up -and -comer.

I'd say here's to a perfect partnership.

To Jack Hennessey, Deputy Inspector.

Wait a minute. What about Equal
Opportunity here?

Here's to Chris Cagney.

What?

Okay.

To Christine Cagney, the first woman
chief of detectives.

The case could make the difference.

Thanks for the peanuts.

Hey, it's all for the earth.

Taxi! Hey, hold on. I'll give you a lift
home.

Oh, no, you don't want to buck the
traffic downtown at this hour. Oh.

Taxi! Okay, next time, then.

I'll have the police report ready for
you by Friday. Oh, Monday morning's

You got it. There is one thing you can
do for me by Friday.

What's that?

You can pick the time and the place for
me to take you to dinner.

Oh, thanks.

But I've got friends.

I warn you, I won't take no for an
answer.

Good night.

Good night.

Go home, please.

Yeah, I'm a little rusty on my Romanian,
Frank. Can you give us some shorthand

here? Probably, of course.

The communist press is having a field
day with this incident.

According to them, and I quote here, no
one is safe in the crime -infested

jungles of capitalist slums.

I'm telling you, they're manipulating
this for their own political advantage.

Oh, no question. But also, there's still
no evidence to indicate that this is

anything other than a street mugging.
Tom. Lacey.

With due respect, sir, I think maybe
we're overlooking the possibility that

something else could be behind this.

Maybe some personal motivation that we
haven't considered.

Like what?

Well, if I knew that, sir, the case
would be solved right now.

What am I dealing with here? A woman's
intuition?

No, sir.

I was presenting another possibility, is
all. Well, let's just say until there's

some hard facts to back it up that this
captain's intuition says you're barking

up the wrong tree.

Yes, sir.

All right, that's it. Let's get on with
it.

Detective Cagney, I want to read my
offer.

First, I thought of sushi and sake.

But who wants to eat at a bar?

And then I... Then I decided on
sauerkraut and a beer, but that's not

enough. Not to go.

I finally came up with pasta.

It's nice and romantic, a little
candlelight to bounce off those deep

of yours. Captain Hennessey. Oh, come
on. It's Jack, remember?

We've got to get serious about this.
Friday night's getting closer.

Jack, I already told you that I have
plans.

Well, look, if those plans are with some
other guy, then I'm just going to keep

you working late. You're going to have
to stand him up and settle for me. No,

that isn't it.

Well, if a lieutenant's bugging you
about reports, I'll get you out of it.

What are bosses for?

The truth is, Jack, I don't believe in
mixing business with pleasure anymore.

Anymore?

What that sounds like is that I'm paying
for some other cop's mistakes.

I don't think that's fair to you.

Well, you're not the only one
disappointed with the timing.

Well, I... Maybe when the case is over,
okay?

You should get to work when you call
them.

Excuse me.

Here's a big one -inch paper clip and
then a small one -inch paper clip.

Well, look who's here. One of the
special task force honchos.

Pass the throw, guys. I said that. I'm
trying to throw something.

Oh, I get it. Now you're treating the
big leagues here and have time for the

gang. Knock it off, Victor, okay?

See, Sarge, she never used to talk that
way.

Hold up a minute.

I'm looking for my claim check. I've got
to get there before the claim is

closed. Well, your trash can's missing.

I said we're packing.

Well, Cagney says that one's hers, so
yours is missing. Two dozen yellow pads

present and accounted for, sir.

I got you down to four. I used a couple.

Must be in my locker.

Your trash can?

I don't know where my trash can is,
Sergeant.

Maybe I never had a trash can.

Maybe my trash can was stolen.

Maybe I threw it away.

I hope I threw it away.

Here is an interesting question.

How do you throw away a trash can?

Very existential, Victor.

Very existential.

I think our man's allergic to decoys.

It's only a matter of time.

Patience, kid.

Patience. It's not my strong suit.

I'll look at it this way.

Investigation is just like any other
game.

You buy just enough time to find just
the right opener.

False strategy.

How do you think I moved up so fast in
the department?

A little roller skate.

I'm talking about playing it smart.

If you're serious about becoming the
chief of detectives, you should learn

rules of the game.

I'm doing okay.

Oh, yeah?

You're telling me that you're not
frustrated because you haven't made the

to the major cases squad yet?

Let me tell you the big jump on the
force room.

A few years back, I was under this
lieutenant who was a real hard case. He

wouldn't give me the time of day.

I did my homework. I found out he was a
racquetball freak.

So I honed up on my serve.

Just enough so he still had the edge.
Then I joined his club.

He got to know me, I got to know him.

See what I mean?

Sure.

Strategy. No, it's more than that.

Relationships.

Sometimes it pays to mix business with
pleasure.

Where are we supposed to meet Alvarez?

Bayside.

The witness says it's on its way home
from work.

One of the couple, Paramount, totally
contradicted each other. He said that

gunman had his raincoat buttoned.

Come on, Chris, get the rest.

What time is our witness due?

Must have gotten tied up.

Waiter.

A bourbon for me and for the lady.

Scotch? No, nothing. Thank you.

As of now, consider yourself officially
off duty.

Scotch.

You like calamari?

They serve it here pro diablo.

It's nice and spicy.

You know this restaurant very well.

It's one of my favorite spots.

Our witness isn't coming at all, is he?

Okay, I confess.

You caught me in the act.

You went to all this trouble just to
take me out to dinner?

I warned you, I don't take no for an
answer.

That's very flattering, Jack.

But when I say no, I mean no.

But sometimes you're open for a little
friendly persuasion, right?

I'm not playing games with you.

You don't have to act a tough cop with
me.

You can wear the pants in public and
private with me.

You can let them down.

You're way out of line, Captain.

I'm a man used to getting my own way,
Detective.

Not with me.

I'm still your superior officer.

And this wasn't part of the job
description.

Excuse me.

I'm not getting in bed with that book
off.

It can't hurt you to read about it, Mary
Beth.

Do you have any idea what type of
mailing list we're on now, thanks to

book?

Look here. Look at this here.

This is a kindly invitation from Oak
Knoll Meadows to invest in our very own,

quote, inflation fighter, family estate,
and memorial crypt.

Yup. Yup.

Hey, wait a minute. Look at this.

Free color family portrait if we order
within the next ten days.

Not funny, Hop.

I've got to study.

Study. I've got to read the New York
State Penal Code. Oh, well, I'm not

to stay in bed with that book.

Tough. You read your stuff, I'll read my
stuff. Mary Beth, this is important.

Well, this is important to her. This is
$5 ,000 more a year if I make sergeant.

Which will go directly to the state of
New York if we die without a will.

That's exactly what they want to see. If
you croak without a will, they soak you

with taxes. They do, Mary Beth. Honey,
the state of New York is not staying up.

late at night trying to figure out how
to get our money. How do you know that?

Is this another one of your conspiracy
theories? It is not a conspiracy theory.

Then what is it?

It's not.

Kisses.

I know what that is. That's Dr.
Rizzuto's complaining about the kid's

Hang on.

Ask who it is.

Hold your horses. It's Clip.

Hi, guys.

I'm sorry to bother you. Come on in.

I've got this paranoid cabbie waiting
downstairs. He won't leave Queens

cash in advance.

I need $25.

I just cashed a check today.

Thank you, Hardin.

Sit down.

Sorry, Mary Beth.

I noticed that you and Captain Hennessy
headed out together this afternoon. What

happened? Nothing a cold shower wouldn't
fix.

Oh, yup.

He wouldn't even take you home?

I wouldn't give him the satisfaction.

I just left him sitting there nursing
his bourbon and his bruised ego in the

restaurant. The problem is I didn't have
enough money for the camp here to get

back from Bayside.

I'm glad we were home.

He's so damn presumptuous.

One minute we're this great team, and
the next minute the guy's coming on like

ton of bricks.

Here you go, kiddo.

Oh, thanks, Harvey. I really appreciate
it. I'll...

Give Mary Beth the money on Monday. No
problem.

I got a book to read.

I better go.

Frankly, Christine, I have to admit I'm
not surprised.

I beg your pardon?

Well, it's no secret that you've been
the apple of this man's eye since he

brought us on the case.

He liked my work. What was I supposed to
do?

Make sure he knew that you weren't
interested.

I never led this man on, Mary Beth.

Well, as long as he's clear about that.

What do you think I'm doing on your
doorstep?

Thank you for the money.

Excuse me.

Good night.

Let's just make the decisions we need
to.

We put the will in the safe deposit box
and we forget about it.

Do we have to talk about this today?

It's a gorgeous day.

Boys, you're with your mothers. We're
walking in the park here.

Okay, okay. We won't talk about it
today.

We talk about it tomorrow, right?

Right.

Harv, if I died, would you get married
again?

Mary Beth, I thought we weren't going to
talk about this.

I wish you would. You wish I would what?

Get married again.

Oh, come on, Mary Beth. It's a
beautiful... No, I'm serious here, Harv.

to know that you were happy with
somebody.

Well, you are a hard act to follow.

For the boys. The boys need a mother.

The boys?

For the boys?

Okay, I'll remarry for the boys.

I wonder what type of woman you'd pick
up.

Probably blonde, huh? She always had to
think of blonde. Redheads. I like

redheads.

Redheads are nice.

This is a ridiculous conversation.

Blue eyes, little tiny waist. No, no, I
never went for blue eyes.

And young, too.

Older men marry younger women all the
time.

Mary Beth, I am a mature man. Yeah, so
you may as well go for it, Hoff. Go for

it? Okay, I'll go for it. I'll marry a
23 -year -old blonde with blue eyes and

very narrow waist. Are you happy?

Hoff? What?

If I die and you marry a 23 -year -old
bimbo, I'll kill you.

See you tonight.

Thank you.

Sure.

Agni?

Yes, Captain. I'll be right in.

You made a serious mistake, Peggy.

I don't think so, Captain.

I'm still your superior officer, a fact
which seems to slip your mind. Now sit

down.

Where's the ballistics report?

I... I put it on your desk Friday before
we left.

It's not here.

Well, I left it right on top. This kind
of negligence is very unprofessional.

Look, I know what I did. I put the thing
down.

Is this

because of

Friday night?

Friday night never happened.

Now, I want that ballistics report on my
desk by tonight.

Or else there are going to be serious
repercussions.

Come on.

Cagney and Lacey will continue in a
moment.

You've been moving in a man's world for
a long time now.

You should know already how to handle a
guy who's trying to work his way into

the good graces of a good -looking woman
like yourself.

Look at this Becky for crying out loud.

Victor, come on, Lieutenant, come on.
Victor Jobes.

This man is serious.

What's the difference? They both got the
same thing on their mind.

There's a big difference.

When a man's coming on to a woman, he
sends her a bottle of wine, a couple of

roses.

He doesn't start messing with her mind
and her career.

I'm telling you, it's not about sex with
that guy anymore, Lieutenant. He's into

power.

That's a strong accusation. You're damn
right it is.

And I'm not imagining it.

Well, I'm not saying that you are
imagining it, Hennessy.

It's just that... Well, I can understand
where a guy might misread the

situation.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that
you're leading the guy on. It's just

that...

You know, with men and women working
together nowadays, sex coming out from

behind closed doors, things are
different today.

One minute a joke is sexy, next minute
it's sexist. Where do you draw the line?

I draw the line at blackmail.

Because that's exactly what he's doing.

If I don't cooperate, all of a sudden my
job gets tough.

That isn't harmless flirtation.

That's sexual harassment.

Resigning from this task force is going
to solve your problem.

Well, don't you?

Let me lay it out alive for you, Keck.

The minute that the brass sees that
you're resigning from a plum assignment

this, your professional reputation is
going to take a nosedive.

I'm going to question your commitment,
your devotion to duty, and your

qualifications for advancement.

So he still wins.

Never mind him. You lose.

That's the point.

Okay, you listen to me, and listen to me
good.

I know you got ambitions, and I want to
see you get a chance to do something

about them.

Well, thank you, Lieutenant.

I have to interview a witness now.

Hey, what are you going to do?

Go ahead.

What have they

got

in there now?

Um, Al Alvarez, the waiter from the
restaurant.

Hennessy's wasting his time.

We've run up against this kind of thing
before. It's classy. Yes, sir.

Classy.

Yes, sir.

I've seen it a thousand times before.

Yes, sir.

I'll, um... What exactly is your
projection on the case, sir?

Well, it's simple.

Tabori fell from grace with his bosses,
and the party bigwigs decided to kill

two birds with one stone.

Assassinate him here, make it appear he
was an American assailant, and darken

the image of the United States.

The problem is that in a few days, the
only person who could break this case

us would be on her way back to Budapest.

You think that Mrs. Tabori is in on
this?

Oh, believe me, these governments have
their methods.

She wants to save her skin.

She's been warned not to cooperate.

Look what she said in her statement.

As I remember, so she didn't say much of
anything in her statement.

Exactly.

Wouldn't you or any other normal woman
have a lot to get off your chest if

seen your husband terminated in front of
your eyes?

Christine Oppenheim. Lacey, will you
check out this ballistics report and see

you can find any inconsistencies with
the witness statements?

Yes, sir.

I found it.

He's buried under some old DD -5s. Come
on, we have to go to the east side and

check out the decoy teams.

I have to finish Alvarez's statement.

Well, Lacey can handle that.

Pretty clear.

Come on, kid, get the lead out. We got
work to do.

Christine, the gunman said what?

I wrote it phonetically.

Alvarez didn't understand the words, so
he just repeated sounds.

Check it out, Lacey.

Yes, sir.

Come on.

I think it's time we buried the hatchet.
What do you say?

I mean it.

I had a lot on my mind lately.

I know I've come down on your little
heart a couple of times.

Let's wipe the slate.

Take the afternoon off, go have a couple
of beers, talk it over.

Then what?

I think... We'll just take it as it
comes. Put it out!

Hey, let's stop playing games.

You came on to me real friendly that
first night when you thought I could

some wheels for you. Now you're playing
the hysterical virgin when it's time to

pay the bill.

What bill?

I don't owe you anything except doing my
job.

Oh, come on. There was more going on
between us in this case than you know

I don't think my way to promotion.

You sure go to a hell of a lot of
trouble to advertise the merchandise for

someone who's not interested.

We both know what you want.

I want it exactly what I said.

Strictly business as long as we're
working together.

What? What is it, Jack?

You like guys to beg for it? Is that
what it turns on?

You'll never know, Hennessy.

Don't mess with me, Cagney. Come back
here.

I'm still the one responsible for your
evaluation on this job, and don't you

forget it.

Cagney!

You look at me.

I got him. Damn it.

Sorry.

Any guy I know?

Yeah, we're working for him.

You know what kicks me off?

I really thought I had this whole thing
under control.

I did everything that those women's
magazine articles tell you you're

to do.

I let him down gently.

Made sure this precious male ego knew
how flattered I was.

I was firm. I never faltered. Even in
the beginning when I thought I...

Oh, what a manner. I didn't make any
difference anyway.

You don't need that stuff anyway.

Ignore him for a thing. I can't. I can't
anymore, Mary Beth.

I've tried.

He's making sure I don't.

What are you talking about?

I'm scared about my file.

He could write down anything he wanted
there, and people will read it. They'll

think I'm a lousy cop.

Now, wait a second. I don't think...
Hey, Dee. Oh. You in there?

Telegrams or what? Yes, I'm in here,
Agent Oppenheimer.

Some professor from City College on the
phone.

Something about some translation.

Thank you. I'm coming.

You going to be all right? Yeah. Yeah?
Yeah.

Detective Lacey?

Yes.

Once again, please, sir.

Thank you very much, Professor Pavlov...
Professor.

Thank you.

Christine?

That was Professor Pavlov... Pavlovny.
He's the head of Slavic languages at Sid

College. Who?

It wasn't Russian.

What wasn't Russian?

The thing that Alvarez overheard, it's
Hungarian.

It translates, this is for you, my
darling.

Then the gunman knew the Taboris.

Apparently.

You know the man who killed your
husband, Mrs. Tabori?

His name is Belov Belosov.

We were students together in Budapest.

Laszlo, Bella and I, we fought for the
revolution.

We were young, idealistic.

We thought we could actually win.

We were throwing stones at Russian
tanks.

They crushed us like an army of ants.

Bella and I were planning to escape.

We were lovers.

You and Bella saw?

Yes.

Laszlo was jealous.

He informed against Bella to save his
own skin.

As soon as I saw him outside that
restaurant, I recognized him.

And I knew exactly what he was going to
do.

And I don't blame him.

You don't blame the man who murdered
your husband?

No.

It has always been a marriage of
convenience.

Don't you see I had no choice?

It's different for you here.

Your choices are easier.

You know something, Mary Beth?

There went a hell of a detective.

What was the big deal?

All I did was check out your report.

Like one of us has our heads on
straight.

You know what I think?

I think that Captain Hennessey is going
to be very crabby that we broke this

one.

You beat him on his own turf, Christine.

Not yet, I haven't.

Not as long as he can hold my job over
me.

He can't do that.

He's made it very clear that he can, and
he will.

Either I come across or I get a negative
rating on my evaluation report.

He's not going to get away with this.

I got his number, and I'm going to use
it.

I've got it all planned. I'm going to
set him up.

I'm going to make you believe I'm going
along with this, and I'm going to go to

his apartment with a wire, and I'm going
to get him on tape, live and loud.

That's illegal, Christine.

That's entrapment. No kidding.

That couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

No, Chris, you have to go through
channels on this one.

You have the law on your side.

You file charges against him,
discrimination charges for...

Sexual harassment? You don't think I
haven't already considered that? Well,

do it. You have to do it. He's using the
system against you. You turn it right

back on him. It is not that simple, Mary
Beth. I'd be challenging my superior

officer.

It would be my word against his.

And the lieutenant's word, right? You
talk to him.

Yeah.

Yeah, and Harvin, I can testify to when
you had to come back from Bayside in the

cab.

You get a diary for the dates and times
that he came on to you. Yeah, you know

what would happen if I do that?

I get a rep for being a hard case by
busting one of my own.

Charlie always told me, the one thing
you never do is rat on

another cop.

You're not ratting on another cop.
You're protecting your career.

The hell I am.

I'm putting my career on the line.

I'm jeopardizing my future, Mary Bethel.

I don't know if I'm ready to do that.

Well, yours is not the only future at
stake here, Christine.

Ten to one, you were not the first
female officer that he came on to.

So you're going to be the last one or
not?

Lieutenant wants to see you in the
interview rooms.

No idea. Just Cagney.

All right, Detective Cagney.

I think you know Captain Hennessy.

I thought it'd be a good idea if we
could clear a little air here.

Let me be frank.

I don't like the department's dirty
laundry adding public.

Granted, the two of you have a problem,
but I don't think either of you is

prepared for the gaffe if this thing
goes to trial.

If you go forward with the charges you
filed, Detective Cagney, you're bringing

your own character into question as much
as the captain's here.

And, Captain, I'm sure you already
realize that just the implication of any

wrongdoing on your part will jeopardize
your pending promotion to Deputy

Inspector.

As far as I can see, nobody wins.

Inspector, I'm surprised that a personal
misunderstanding could have been blown

out of proportion like this.

Basically, the problem is the different
sensibilities that work here.

You know how the guys like to kid
around, and they kid around.

But the women take it so seriously, and
then they get all worked up over

nothing.

Now, my book, Detective Cagney, deserves
a top -notch evaluation for outstanding

performance on the Tabori case.

I'm ready to back that up if she's just
willing to drop her complaint.

That seems fair to me.

I've already made it clear to Captain
Hennessey that I don't trade favors or

accept bribes.

We're trying to work out a settlement
here, Detective Cagney, one that both

parties can live with.

Well, I can't live with it, Inspector.

Captain Hennessey threatened me
professionally if I didn't sleep with

I call that blackmail.

And I think you should answer that.

I don't have to sit here. Sit down,
Captain.

There are times when personal ego and
reputation need to be reconsidered for

benefit of the department.

I think this suit is for the benefit of
the department, Inspector.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have filed the
charges.

And that's your final word?

Yes.

And I think we'd better stop wasting our
time and get back to work.

Are you, baby?

Michael said you were up here.

Yeah, I've just been thinking.

Yeah, me too.

And I think you're right.

And we'll do the will.

That's good, Mary Beth.

We'll do it tonight.

Tomorrow night. Tonight.

We dance.

Dance?

Tonight we dance because I decided we
are not going to die.

You know why?

Why?

Because we love each other too much.

That's why.

Oh.

That's the most romantic thing that you
ever said to me.

Thank you.

The most romantic thing.

Yeah, what was the first one?

Huh?

Boy.

What is this?

It's a voice portable record player.

Thank you.
