hey McCall what'd you do get turned down

by every single guy in the precinct

there are only two excuses I'll accept

for being late for an appointment either

you were in the hospital in intensive

care you are already dead you just and

me boy yes sir you better you'll find

yourself back in the joint now get out

of here

it keeps doing that he's not gonna get

out of here but I have a pension fund

well it's gonna be a miserable job with

people like that every day all right

miss Sloan

I'm Sergeant Rick Connor this is my

partner DeeDee McCall how do you do hi

mr. Colson said you'd be stopping by

today yeah for the file on James Dupree

did you get it oh yes it's some place

here dismiss I started work on Monday

and they dumped me mr. Walsh's entire

caseload on trees you can say oh here it

is I don't know if I really should let

you have this Roley files are

confidential you know and they're only

available to the parole department alone

they're on our side mr. Donaldson

my responsibility slow

sorry about that these kids come in here

fresh out of college is this all you got

on this somebody free character is a

rundown of his arrests and convictions

and his parole record and if he reported

regularly and on time his job records

like that we've got so many cases that

if we kept a full jacket on each parolee

we wouldn't have room for anything else

not a very solid citizen is it the

system was running the way it should

they'd have given in the gas chamber the

first time Jerry Walsh was a real good

man so if you don't bring Despres back

alive nobody's gonna say boo Paul are

you sure Sonny did this well I know

Jerry was after him for a couple of

months to throw his butt back in prison

for parole violation I've got a tip last

night he was back in town he went out

after him you know what's weird about

this when Jerry got the phone call he

said he wasn't gonna go after the brick

it's too dangerous

dan kidded him about it remember so he

changed his mind

you sure about that look he was killed

not two blocks from big Adso bar which

is weird to pray was last night and he

was after to pray for a couple of months

I mean he had a real burn on putting

Sonny back in the slammer he talked

about it all the time

I mean Dupree isn't exactly what you'd

call one of nature's noblemen but

Jerry's dealt with worse we all have but

if it was a Dan then I could understand

it

dan Colson he's a real hard case yeah

where is Colson I called him he said he

was gonna be here he went out a little

while ago I think he went after Sonny

himself and I'll tell you something if

he finds him they're gonna need to pick

up what's left of him with a blotter

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

Donnie said hi Sammy I reckon enjoy the

fire

[Music]

[Music]

where is it where said it please don't

hurt my face I want sunny where is they

don't know don't give me that I own

little garbage now you let me know

what's happening if someone's gonna get

hurt it just may be you but if you so

much as blink now just take it easy and

drop the gun right back on the bed

now clasp your hands behind your head

attaboy

what's going on here who are you people

don't worry about a business to tree

with the police if you're the cops were

on the safe back up wait a minute now

I'm a parole officer I'm dad Colson my

creds are in my in my right hand pocket

of my jacket he broke in here he didn't

ring her anything he just smashed in the

door you saw what he did don't worry

he's not gonna hurt either you or your

child

what's the idea treating these people

like this Colson who the hell do you

think you are her husband killed a

parole officer my buddy for 20 years and

she's harboring him Duprey is only a

suspect right now Colson now you may

have probable cause to come in here but

not to terrorize these people bust this

place up he's a parole violator now I

have the right to bust in any place I

want where I think he's hiding

Sonny didn't violate his parole he's got

a regular job he's leading a straight

life sure can I think my hands down huh

still doesn't give you any right to

terrorize a woman and a child Colson

listen before you two start shedding

tears for these people you ask yourself

how many cops are dead because some

parole officer was too soft guys like

Sonny and his family hey Colson more

cops get hurt because jerks like you

butt into their business so why don't

you butt out

I mean breaking into my house and

terrorizing us like that why didn't you

arrest him well I know it isn't much of

a consolation but the law gives him that

right look I know Sonny broke the law

and he has to pay for that but he never

meant to hurt anybody and to put him

under the thumb of a man who's a worse

criminal than he ever was mrs. Dupree do

you know that your husband hasn't

checked in with his parole officer in

the last five or six weeks that's not

true

Sonny goes every Wednesday morning at

10:00 like clockwork ask mr. Walsh his

parole officer well I'm afraid we won't

be able to do that you see Jerry Walsh

was murdered last night

Oh God

mrs. Dupree where was Sonny last night

he was home if he wasn't at home and

you're lying don't you only make it

worse for both of you yeah minutes

before Jerry was murdered last night

your husband was seen leaving a bar just

two blocks away Sonny didn't do it he

couldn't he's not a killer well he did

kill a girl and he did go to jail for it

he was drunk and he ran her down and she

died look I'm grateful to you for

stopping that man but I don't have

anything more to say to you so please go

please thank you

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

time I ask you questions you it's a nice

and polite well if it isn't Sergeant

hearts and Sergeant flowers the Miranda

twins you read any good writes lately

hey Colton what the hell are you doing

around there my job hunter oh come on

the county doesn't pay you to beat up on

people can't fight back they're garbage

I'm trying to keep the streets clean

give me a break okay let me tell you

something once and once and for all this

is now a homicide investigation

that makes it my turf you stay off of it

hey I've got jurisdiction here as much

as anybody that scum killed my buddy now

you stay off me I'm gonna run you over

[Music]

hey Sammy let me talk to you for Mila Oh

first Coulson and now you my day is made

Hey look man if you know where sunny is

in your covering form you could be up

for obstruction of justice justice guys

on parole he's a punching bag for

anybody with a badge to work out on and

you wonder why cops get killed are you

saying you off his parole officer

because I got punched out don't put

words in my mouth

I didn't talk to Coulson and I ain't

talking to you so bug off lady huh you

gotta be kid

Terry Walsh was like a father to Sonny I

mean it they were like like father and

son Sonny couldn't that killed him Sonny

couldn't have killed anybody

yeah but its first conviction what's the

kill on that girl he killed a girl

he was drunk out of his mind and he

didn't see her in a crosswalk and oh

come on I saw Walsh's file on the guy

had him down as a three-time convicted

rapist and one of the rapes included

murder

that's crazy outer Jerry's the guy

brought Sonny to me he got me to hire

him he told me what he had done he's

told me where he was at and said all the

guy needs is a job and he'll be okay

and that's just the way it was Sonny

never took a drink never missed a day's

work as far as I know he never missed a

single day's reporting to Jerry yeah how

come he's not here where is it I don't

know maybe sick you want someone maybe

can help you you talked to Ramos

him and Sonny are real tight you asked

him

so how'd you do with Ramos not even

squat think I should try it not sway

sitting room you know what really

bothers me what got to Sonny's here

we've got a Jekyll and Hyde yeah yeah me

take a look at this

the guys in the parole office turn us on

to a Sonny who is a killer rapist has

been nailed three times violated his

parole and killed this Bo to stay out of

the slammer right right and then we

talked to his wife and Sam Lubbock and

Ramos and they gave us this Sonny who's

a hard-working loving devoted father

whose only crime was committed while it

was in an influence so what you're

saying is you think that maybe a Walsh

is trying to frame Sonny it's worth

checking into

yeah go ahead I want to stick around

here and see if Sonny shows up and if he

doesn't I want to see if Ramos and San

leave me to him okay I'm gonna camp Oh

see if you get a tat put on Dupre's

phone in case he calls his wife

oh and hunter listen Friday night

we're Thai okay we're going someplace

real nice

jack sister how old is she how old she

was

I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for

so long sergeant Paul but I had to run

this through the computer three times

and it's still wrong what's the problem

manslaughter well then why is the guy

smart here sunny you're adding

kidnapping assault resisting arrest of

suspicion of murder you're digging

yourself a pretty big hole here I didn't

kill him

he was seen leaving big Ed's last night

minutes before Walsh was killed I've got

a witness to that don't talk to him

Sonny he's only gonna twist what you say

all around and set you up

look Ramos why don't you go outside and

get some fresh air and clear your fat

head I'll clear your head man up there

real good look I got enough problems

without that why'd you go downstairs and

see if anyone's hanging around give me a

gun he tries something Sonny yeah Holly

he's good people Ramos

I got a raw deal and they made him a

little crazy look Sonny I ran a full

make on you and all I could come up with

a flock of five Oh Tuesday one

conviction for a vehicular homicide now

since you've been out on parole even

clean us know now why does Walsh have

you down as a three-time convicted

rapist and a parole abscond er it was a

trap and I was a bait he said there was

some guy out there murdering parolees

some nut who thought he was protecting

the public from the rapists and the

murderers that the system was putting

back on the streets what did he say who

we thought it was no he just said that

the guy it already murdered six parolees

and that if he you know if he could set

me up so he went after me he could nail

him and you went along with that hey

Jerry turned my life around if it wasn't

for him I'd be falling down drunk I mean

no wife no kid no job nothing I'd have

done anything that man asked so what

went down last night Sonny early in the

day Jerry called me and told me he

thought the time was right he gave me a

phone number and told me the call at 10

o'clock that night and asked for

said not to pay any attention to what he

said it was a phone it's just to go to a

bar he'd mentioned in the conversation

there's called big Ed's and I was be

sure to leave it at 1:30 on the nose

start heading east so he said he'd be

there it wasn't a worry

[Music]

I thought the footsteps I heard behind

me were Jerry's but I couldn't be sure

what if it wasn't what if he couldn't

make him for some reason

[Music]

I wanted to yell out I wanted to jump up

and grab that guy by the throat and bash

his head against the walls but I

couldn't move I couldn't breathe I was

like I was frozen there behind the

garbage cans did you see the guy yeah I

saw almost as clear as I see you was it

damn Colson

he was another parole officer to work

with Walsh he's supposed to be his

friend I don't know and I never saw him

up there and Jerry never told me about

but if it's the guy who killed Jerry I

can ID him get me out of here Sonny come

on you what so you can take me in yeah

no dice look there's a one-off for your

arrest I've got to take you in

besides I need you to finger Colson so I

can nail him and who's gonna believe me

sorry hunter the guy who killed Jerry's

out after me I'll take my chances on my

own hey wait a minute you're not gonna

leave me in here hooked up like this

I don't need it that'll hold you I don't

need this sorry hunter hey Sonny

half new player deals okay to check and

raise anything goes as long as you don't

get caught how about a little people off

the stud only people off the side I was

why he killed him isn't it because he

found out it was you hey Sonny Dupree

killed Jerry Walsh and everybody knows

about it no we playing cards here or

ends I want to tie up first but when I

do I'll know where to find you you're

running a bluff hey damn it hunter I

one resent what you're doing to Dan now

either you back off and I'm gonna file a

complaint well that's your prerogative

Weikart but if I was you I'd read that

printout first

it's got Sonny to freeze rap sheet on

without essential files not the one

Walsh dummied up to nail the murderer

but freeze a drunk driver let me see it

I'll get it yeah
