What do you want me to say?

Did I like it that you went out with him? I'm not taking any notes here.

Something is wrong with Christine.

I've got a scotch in my hand.

I'll be damned if I'll apologize to you or anybody for that.

Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. You want to be treated like a sergeant,

then you act like a sergeant.

I hated it.

Hated feeling.

So what do old Tiffany do, run off with the quarterback?

We don't know.

Oh, Virginia's not talking. To tell you the truth, he's not doing much of

anything.

He'll get over it.

In six months, all I wanted him to do was stuff a sock in it. Now I want him

talk, he's not talking.

Hey, he got dumped, Mary Beth.

So today, it's the end of the world.

The next week, his hungry little hormones won't even remember a name.

He's so hurt.

Trust me on this one.

Huh? I know what I'm talking about here.

A little rejection is good for the soul.

Time heals all wounds.

A rolling teenager gathers no moss.

Mr. Potter seemed very happy to see you again.

Nice shooting, Mary Beth.

The man in the elevator today.

Gorgeous, terrific sense of humor and perfect teeth.

I didn't notice him. Are you accepting his invitation?

For what? Dinner sometime?

Don't know if you're impressed.

Why would he ask for your number?

He was being polite.

Mary did. As I remember it, you thought he was very interesting. Garth looks

great, Josie. I sat next to him at a French film festival.

After three nights of heavy breathing, he looked interesting.

I will never understand why you go to those things.

Logic's got nothing to do with it. I wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Potter

had a message waiting on your machine. All right, okay.

You're right. He probably won't call.

You're not really dating anyhow.

Right? Right.

David and I are seeing each other strictly as friends.

Right. You're just not going to let go of this one, are you? Did I say

Fine.

Just to make you happy, I'll check my mess.

Hey, you two taking the day off or what?

DA's riding my butt looking for your Murphy deposition.

And you said he wouldn't miss us.

We shot it over to him yesterday.

Yeah, well, he never got it.

Oh, this guy came in.

Said he wanted to look to see.

Thank you, Sergeant.

And how is Mr. Potter?

I'll be sure to ask.

What's that?

It's a computer heist in a 2 -1.

Looks like our first.

It's worth checking out.

Maybe we'll get lucky.

Speaking of which, have a nice evening.

Yes, tell Harvey Jr. to keep his chin up. There are lots of fish in the sea.

And girls.

Is Brad Potter, please.

Lucky the ref didn't toss him out.

Are you kidding?

The team gave him a game ball autograph.

That old man sounds like he was a hell of a guy.

Yeah, I thought he was.

Pop sure loved the Knicks.

My father still thinks the Knicks are something you play tennis in.

You know, it just so happens that I have two tickets for Friday's game.

Against Boston?

Courtside.

How are you with the refs? Oh, I'm merciless.

Good.

You got a date.

Taxi! Chris, that's okay.

I'll take you home. My car sits around the corner.

Come on.

Tony's away for the week.

I'm impressed.

Neighbors who actually look out for each other.

Could tell me you're some New York cynic.

No way.

I love the city.

May I?

Thank you.

I had a nice time, Brad.

Is there any chance that I might charm my way in for a drink?

Not tonight, I'm sorry.

I just like to take this kind of flow.

Flow it is.

Till Friday.

Day Friday.

Night, Chris.

Night.

Night. Night.

He's awake in there, Harvey.

The bed, sweetheart.

His light is on.

I guess he's awake, then.

It's hard to sleep with the light on.

Harv, I think we have to try and talk with him again.

Enjoy the quiet while it lasts, babe.

Mary Beth, I have talked to his door until I am blue in the face.

He'll come to us when he's ready.

What if he doesn't?

Then maybe you'll float away.

That's good, Harvey.

Our son is lying in there with a broken heart, listening to music about suicide,

and you're making jokes. That's good.

Dead and gone, Harvey.

What kind of a name is that? I hate that music, Harvey.

Everybody's got to handle it their own way, Mary Beth. May I board hair dye?

Hair dye.

Sure.

Jenny Langostini wouldn't go to the prom unless they had a mustache.

You dyed your upper lip.

No, no, no. I already had a mustache. You just couldn't see it unless the

was right.

So did this Langostini. Did she decide to go with you?

No, I was allergic to the dye, so my lip had swelled up big for a week, and I

had to wear a Band -Aid.

She didn't know what she was missing.

Do you like my mustache?

I love all your hair.

Yes, Chris.

Well, that's okay.

What's wrong?

Are you all right?

Now?

Okay.

I'm on my way.

I'll be there, Chris.

What is it? What are you doing?

Something is wrong with Christine.

Can't it wait till the morning?

I have to go, Horne.

Rick?

Yeah?

Coffee here. You want some coffee?

The new blend I got in that little shop over on the 8th.

The Jamaican blend.

What happened?

Don't.

What happened, Chris?

Are you hurt?

Did somebody hurt you?

Sorry, I can't help you with your drink. The guy in the cupboard is a little

bare right now.

He said the car battery died.

Oh.

He was so strong.

My arms.

I'm a strong woman, you know that.

Don't you?

But he held my wrist and I couldn't move my arms.

Oh, Chris.

Did somebody break in here?

Brad needed to use the telephone.

Brad?

Brad Potter?

Yeah.

His car wouldn't start, so he made a phone call.

And he raped me.

What? He raped me.

Just one more swab for the slide.

Relax now, please.

Relax. Drop your knees a little, okay?

That's fine. You do a thing.

Okay, Miss Cagney, another quick look around, make sure everything's all

Please, uh, open up.

Relax. Relax, Miss Cagney.

Is there any pain here?

No. Everything looks pretty good.

Doesn't appear to be any internal injuries.

Great.

Let me take this back for a moment.

Relax.

I want to do a pubic combing for evidence, and then we'll be finished.

Can you raise up a little, please?

Okay, that's good. Now down.

I need a little more room.

Thank you.

Relax, please.

We're almost done.

Remember, the rate counselor wants to see you before you leave.

I'll check back and I can discuss the test for VDH.

We'll need to keep your clothes. Did you bring a change?

I'm sorry, what?

Do you have any other clothing?

Yes, my friend.

Good. You can get up.

Looks like you're going to be fine.

I'm sorry this had to happen, Miss Gagin.

The detectives from sex crimes are here.

They're both men, Chris.

Look at the drawer.

Well, you could request a woman if that would be better for you. No, I don't

want anything that's connected to special treatment.

Only makes it worse.

Oh, boy.

Dee Dee's gonna love this one.

The department, too.

What am I doing here, Mary Beth?

You're taking care of yourself.

No scratches and no bruises.

Hell, the doctor said I'm going to be just fine.

You don't have to have bruises.

Well... Couple of sore wrists and a little semen don't add up to much.

You were raped, Christine.

He said he was going to kill me and marry Beth.

He grabbed me and rubbed me against the wall.

Bertha didn't even know what was happening.

He had this look on his face, so that... In the eyes, you know, it was this

hate.

I'm gonna kill you, bitch, if you don't do everything I tell you to.

Put his mouth.

And he whispered that he'd have fun watching me die.

So I let him drag me to the bed.

And I let him do whatever he wanted.

You did what you had to.

So what do you think, detective?

You got a solid case here?

How many date breaks have we seen ever get passed for a limb?

Things are changing all the time.

How many, Meredith?

You're a credible witness. It's the difference. You're a cop.

Right.

You did the right thing, Chris.

You're not going to let this bastard get away with it.

I got news for you, partner.

You already did.

6 '2", 6 '3", between 170 and 190 pounds.

He was fair complected, had brown hair and a mustache.

His eyes were dark. I believe they were brown. Sergeant. And I don't know any

more distinguishing marks to give you it now. Sergeant Kent, I think we've got

the general idea.

What Detective Mahoney means is we already have enough to get an address.

I just want to be sure.

Now, we'll pick him up, and then you can come on down and make a positive.

I'm sorry, I know this is difficult.

Let's just get on with it, please.

You said there was penetration.

I beg your pardon?

You said there was penetration.

Yes. Did he start a match? No.

Did he force you into oral corporate? No. Did he display any weapon?

I told you that he threatened me.

You said he would have fun watching you die.

That is correct.

That was the threat.

Well, what do you think?

That was one of them. But he never showed a gun or a knife, no weapon. He

have to.

Have you had sex with any other men in the last 72 hours?

No.

Well, when was the last time you had sexual relations with this man? I never

sex with him. Are you taking any notes here?

I'm just trying to get your story straight.

I think she's giving it straight. Only I'm still confused.

The sergeant said she let him kiss her.

Was there anything leading or suggestive in this kiss?

Feeling any better?

I can't find your sheets. Where are they? I'll make up your... No, no, I'll

it later.

Harvey would like this coffee.

I really ought to buy those fresh beans more often because we still have that

grinder that you gave us two Christmases ago.

I'm taking reports 19 years.

I'm talking to women.

How come I don't know what to say now?

Chris, I would do anything to make it so this never happened. Mary Beth, really,

I'm all right.

I just need to get a little sleep, that's all.

I wish you'd come back to Queens, stay the rest of the night.

I just can't talk about it anymore right now.

And you should get on to Harvey.

Wolf could take care of himself right now.

Well, so can I.

Oh, gee, Chris.

Invite me over. I could sleep on the couch. Mary Beth, listen to me.

I know you're trying to help me, but this is my home.

I have to learn to be safe here by myself.

I don't want to catch the phone guard duty at my front door.

Mary Beth?

Okay, Sarge.

And I appreciate everything you did.

I haven't done anything.

Yeah, you did.

Whatever you need call me whatever time I don't care promise

computer stores no the one six had a different mo

well i thought if there was a match that is what i'm trying to find out

well it's been a joy getting your cooperation too hello

what

can i do for you i just wanted to say

You know what kind of cop I think you are.

Ever in my thoughts.

I think you're one of the best.

And well, if there's something I could... What is the point, Victor?

I don't care what anybody says.

My book is still at the top.

I don't know if you see.

Maybe.

What do I see?

What Victor wants.

Nothing.

You didn't have to come in here today.

Yeah, I did.

I went by sex crime.

Mahoney and Cummins won't be dragging their feet on this one.

Can you come to my office, please?

fine lieutenant no i mean uh how you feeling i i just uh got the 49

now okay i

think i know what you're trying to prove i'm not trying to prove anything i

reported a crime wait hold on a minute i'm not talking about what i'm talking

about is what the hell are you even doing here If a woman has a thing like

happen to her, she should take some time off. I would rather be working. We have

a lead on the computer heist, and I'd like to... Lacey will handle the case.

Lieutenant, just don't do this to me, all right? It's going to be hard enough

with those people out there thinking I can't hack it.

I don't need you pulling the plug on me. Peggy, please.

I want to work.

See a counselor yet?

In the hospital.

I was supposed to go to a support group later today.

All right, Dagny.

Okay.

But I want you to listen to me and I want you to listen good.

I don't want you within ten miles of that scum.

If I hear one word... I'm not a vigilante, Lieutenant.

You're my second whip.

You let sex crimes handle this.

Why?

Understood? Yes.

Did they pick him up yet?

No.

I'm sorry as hell about this, Kate.

Well, that'll be all, Lieutenant.

Yeah.

I guess you couldn't get to your gun, huh?

It was in my dresser, where I always keep it.

Samuel said, guess you couldn't get to your gun, huh?

Like I was supposed to jump up and just shove it between his legs and pull the

trigger on that bastard.

When he climbed off of me, I couldn't move.

So I just let him walk right out the door.

You were in shock, Chris.

I don't want to get started in all this, Mary Beth. I know all about sex crimes.

Did the lieutenant put you on leave?

He said I could work, as long as I didn't work on this case.

You say anything about your partner sticking her nose in?

Sex crime's already staked out his apartment and his office.

He hasn't shown up either place.

What about his clients? I mean, a broker's always in touch, aren't they?

No clients. He's the president of the firm.

That's terrific.

I met that bastard, Harvey.

Seemed like a nice man to me. I didn't sense anything.

I told her to call him back. That music is gonna drive me insane!

He cannot hide up there in that room forever, Harv.

Wasn't that long ago you wish you could lock him up?

When? When did I ever want that?

First day of kindergarten.

That day the neighborhood bully wanted to knock his block off.

When he wanted to ride the subway alone.

You were so scared.

Yeah, you weren't.

Harvey, promise me that you'll finish this job, okay, tomorrow, because I

want these brushes sticking up my food all week.

I miss our son, Harvey.

He used to come to us. He used to let us help him.

I miss him too, Mary Beth.

And I kept going over and over in my mind.

There must have been something, you know.

There had to be something.

I don't know what I missed.

This isn't supposed to happen to me.

It happens to other women.

Like, uh, there are other... A woman I know named

Sarah Fiona Cobham.

She got raped.

I said to her once that I... I understood what she'd gone through.

I guess it was just so easy to say.

Why didn't you call me?

I needed some time.

What are you doing?

You shouldn't be staying here.

Wait a minute.

You stay with me for a while.

No, David.

Then I should stay here with you.

David, no. I can handle this myself. Please. You can't even sleep in your own

bed.

Hey.

We had dinner together.

Give us a date.

There's no need to explain.

I let him see me home.

It doesn't matter.

David, don't do this. Please don't act like this.

I kissed him.

Well, damn it, say it. Say something.

What do you want me to say?

Did I like it that you go out with him?

Listen, I'm sorry.

No! Don't touch me, all right?

Get away from me.

All I care about is you, Kirsten.

Thank God you're not hurt.

I was raped.

I can't hurt.

nightmare for you.

I really want to stay here with you if it would help.

No.

No.

Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.

It has been many years.

This is my last confession.

How long has it been?

I guess 17, maybe 18 years, Father.

What's troubling you?

I'm not sure, Father.

I... Don't be afraid.

I think I'm ashamed.

Ashamed of what?

I feel dirty.

What are you ashamed of, my child?

I'm raped, Father.

Do you feel responsible?

Joe, please.

Thank you.

Hello, Joe?

It's Christine.

I'm in trouble.

I've got a scotch in my hand.

No, not yet.

Well, then I need to talk.

You can't do that.

It's already done, Cagney.

You concentrate on your other cases.

With due respect, we're finally putting together a profile that could lead us to

an identification.

It doesn't matter. It's too late.

Too late according to whom?

These computer heads are catching the attention of the brass.

And Nelman thinks... Nelman?

Inspector Nelman thinks that you may be a little... Little what?

Preoccupied. And he feels a fresh perspective on this. Oh, get off it,

Lieutenant. This is all a bunch of bull. You want to be treated like a sergeant,

Cagney? Then you act like a sergeant.

I know that the two of you could have made this collar. You're doing such

solid work.

But that's not the point.

Exactly. What is the point?

Orders. Our orders.

And that's the way it is.

Turn over your casework to his Becky and Jordan.

Hey, she'll hold it a second.

Sir?

How's she holding up?

You want my truthful opinion, sir?

Well, what is this? I'm asking you, aren't I?

I think under the circumstances, Sergeant Cagney is doing remarkably

thanks to the department, sir.

I'm going to get out of here.

Yes, sir.

Fifty ones including the serial numbers and stolen merchandise, forensic

reports, and last but certainly not least, the fives through two ones.

It's grand larceny, Victor. I said, oh, screw it up. I didn't ask for this,

Cagney. I swear to you, he just dropped it on her laps.

What do you want me to do?

Make you find everything in order.

Look, if you and Lady did all the legwork, why don't you just take me...

off, Victor, please. I said you could take the assist. Get away from me.

just take the assist.

No!

And you wait.

You can share, Colin.

I don't want your pity.

Nobody blames you.

Drink, Victor.

I was raped.

I did not ask to be raped. I did not enjoy being raped.

I was raped.

That is sex against my will.

My will.

Or maybe the word that's bothering you is submission.

Well, for those of you who haven't caught the rumors yet, I did submit.

Because I wanted to stay alive.

And I thought he would kill me.

And I'll be damned if I'm going to apologize to you or anybody else for

So if there's any problem or any of you think I can't handle it out on the

streets, I want you to say it right now.

To my face.

It's all lies, you know, all this stuff about us being in control.

It's just crap.

Why do they say that to us?

It's so stupid.

I couldn't stop Charlie from dying.

I can't stop myself from wanting to have another drink.

Hell, I don't even have control over my own body. I mean, any bastard could just

walk in and have his... What is it?

Damn it! It is my body!

He had no right.

I was so frightened when he was on top of me, holding me down.

It was like panicking on me, and I was so scared.

There's nothing wrong with feeling scared, Christine.

I hated it.

I hate that feeling.

I hate the way I'm feeling now, too.

The new me, Mary Beth.

Huh? What do you think?

Three years old?

That's funny how that works.

You feel like a little girl.

What I see is a woman of great courage.

This was never your fault.

Christine.

Sergeant Cagg.

Sorry. Yes?

They picked up your man and they're taking him to the 8th. The DA wants to

you there.

Thank you, Detective.

Want some company?

Sure.

Call that a fashion statement.

Yeah, let's do it.

His attorney advised him against it, but he waived his right to a lineup because

he just wants to talk to you.

I'll bet he does.

I picked him up this morning coming into his office when he took a day off to

visit his parents.

Nice touch.

You don't buy that alibi of being with his family.

There's nothing to buy, Sergeant.

He doesn't deny having sex with me.

I'll be right here.

Chris, it's about time.

That's your client that advised this meeting's being recorded?

He has been so advised.

They picked me up for rape.

That is the complaint.

Come on, Chris.

Rape. Tell him, will you? That isn't a very funny joke.

It isn't meant to be funny.

Oh, my God.

You are serious.

I've heard of this kind of thing happening.

I think it's wisest for Mr. Paxton and myself to meet privately for a few

moments. No.

I want to know what the hell is going on here.

If this is some sort of private vendetta, it's a little extreme, don't

think? Look, I'm sure we're all agreed that this could turn into a very ugly

situation. So is rape, Mr. Nettles.

Yes, well, my client says you consented.

Well, your client is a liar. Sergeant. You more than consented, lady.

When you started unbuttoning my shirt and coming on to me, there wasn't a

lot of room for interpretation.

Let's all settle down here, shall we?

Now, I'm sure I don't need to tell the good sergeant what she needs for an

indictment. Let's just assume she had enough.

This is the kind of story the press just loves to exploit.

Then there's the lengthy trial.

All your time and efforts, not to mention the unfortunate embarrassment.

And for what?

The best you can hope for is sexual misconduct. A walk with a fine and

probation?

We might be willing to settle for that.

Oh, I'm sure you would.

Sergeant Cagney.

Yes, go ahead, Counselor. Take your time. You two talk about it.

I'm not cupping a plea. This guy is Mr. Clean, Cagney. No record. Even if we get

a rape conviction, he'll probably walk with a suspended sentence.

You don't know that. This way, we're guaranteed a conviction.

A misdemeanor?

And we avoid a lot of nasty press.

Not to mention helping a certain DA with his conviction record.

I'm going to let that slide, Sergeant. That man raped me.

Unless we go after him for what he did, right or wrong, all this crap is just

worth nothing.

Appointance rape. Do you have any idea what we're up against? I'll tell you

you're up against.

The alleged attack occurred two days ago.

Take a close look.

Do you see any sign of a struggle?

There might be a few scratches on my back, but I can assure you they didn't

there from her fighting me off.

You son of a bitch. I don't care what the papers say.

I don't care if it takes all year. I don't give a damn if I have to sit in

courtroom every day till hell freezes over.

I'm coming after you, mister, and I'm going to do everything in my power to

you away.

What did I tell you?

Cool one minute, hot the next.

I understand in prison they have a little different interpretation of

It's just like I said in my statement.

She got even worse after a few drinks.

You know how sloppy drunks can get, always taking off their clothes.

You probably don't remember.

I remember every single thing.

It's time to charge Mr. Potter with rape.

How'd it go?

I love it when they tie the noose around their own neck.

Would you mind telling me what the noose is?

Sure.

It's a little blood test. The hospital runs for trauma victims.

Looking for drugs or alcohol.

So?

I don't drink.

Not at all.

I'm a believer, Sergeant.

I'll get your hospital records.

It sounds like the lady won the first round.

Want to join me for the second?

What do you got in mind?

Go down town and see Nelman.

I like a woman with a mission.

I want our damn case back.
