5
00:00:11,012 --> 00:00:13,412
<i> These are their stories.</i>

6
00:00:28,529 --> 00:00:30,529
A Sunday night, huh?

7
00:00:30,531 --> 00:00:34,166
If you were off,
    this what you'd be doing?

8
00:00:34,168 --> 00:00:37,302
I'd be tuning my Harley...
or Mary Louise.

(<i> laughs</i> )

10
00:00:38,539 --> 00:00:40,172
Come on.

11
00:00:40,174 --> 00:00:41,273
Break it up.

12
00:00:41,275 --> 00:00:42,541
Just relax.
You'll get in.

13
00:00:42,543 --> 00:00:44,176
It's not a problem.

14
00:00:44,178 --> 00:00:45,244
Get the manager out here.

15
00:00:45,246 --> 00:00:47,146
Is there a problem?

16
00:00:47,148 --> 00:00:48,514
You got excessive
             noise, loitering...

17
00:00:48,516 --> 00:00:50,449
my feet are moving.
            Not me--

18
00:00:50,451 --> 00:00:52,151
Peter, come on!

19
00:00:52,153 --> 00:00:54,253
I was talking
               to the policeman.
Where are you going?

20
00:00:54,255 --> 00:00:56,155
The car's over there.
We got to go home.

21
00:00:56,157 --> 00:00:57,156
At midnight?
                        Come on.

22
00:00:57,158 --> 00:00:59,158
Let's go to Nirvana.

23
00:00:59,159 --> 00:01:01,159
It's time to go home, Peter.
                   It's not time
                     to go home.

24
00:01:01,162 --> 00:01:02,394
Give me a kiss.

25
00:01:02,396 --> 00:01:05,164
I don't want
    to give you a kiss.

26
00:01:05,166 --> 00:01:06,398

(<i> screams</i> )

28
00:01:09,437 --> 00:01:12,137
Nobody saw her
at the club.

29
00:01:12,139 --> 00:01:14,506
invisible out here?
What? Was she

30
00:01:14,508 --> 00:01:18,410
Tore the necklace so hard,
           it took skin with it.

31
00:01:18,412 --> 00:01:20,479
Lois Ryder, 16 East 85.

32
00:01:20,481 --> 00:01:22,381
Off the park. Nice.

33
00:01:22,383 --> 00:01:24,116
Saperstein, 3-6.

00:01:24,118 --> 00:01:26,368
Phil Cerreta,
                     Mike Logan.

35
00:01:26,369 --> 00:01:28,619
What's the matter, you
           don't get enough work
               in your own turf?

36
00:01:28,622 --> 00:01:31,623
Hit her in the head,
     maybe a baseball bat?

37
00:01:31,625 --> 00:01:33,425
Took the jewelry,
left the credit cards?

38
00:01:33,427 --> 00:01:35,561
Case closed.
You got the guy booked?

39
00:01:35,563 --> 00:01:38,163
Last six weeks,
     two within ten blocks.

40
00:01:38,165 --> 00:01:40,132
I didn't see it
     on the boroughs sheet.
No, no, no.

41
00:01:40,134 --> 00:01:42,301
We don't want the M.O. out.
     We gagged it downtown.

42
00:01:42,303 --> 00:01:44,236
The guy hits them with a bat,
    takes the jewelry

43
00:01:44,238 --> 00:01:45,237
leaves the cards.

44
00:01:45,239 --> 00:01:47,239
What do you got?

45
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,240
Hits them with a bat,
       takes the jewelry

46
00:01:49,243 --> 00:01:50,309
leaves the cards.

47
00:01:50,311 --> 00:01:52,111
We got nothing.

You were in the
country all weekend?

51
00:03:20,634 --> 00:03:23,435
I-I had to get
the roof fixed.

52

Who cares if the roof

Mr. Ryder?

55
00:03:41,522 --> 00:03:43,922
Do you know
what your wife

56
00:03:43,924 --> 00:03:46,525
would have been doing
tonight?

57
00:03:46,527 --> 00:03:50,462
I talked to her this morning.

58
00:03:50,464 --> 00:03:53,298
She and I talked,

59
00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:57,302
and she said
she might go to the movies,

60
00:03:57,304 --> 00:04:00,672
and I told her not to walk.

61
00:04:00,674 --> 00:04:02,407
The movie,

62
00:04:02,409 --> 00:04:04,376
Mr. Ryder--

63
00:04:04,378 --> 00:04:07,446
would you know which one
            that would be?

64
00:04:07,448 --> 00:04:09,715
She likes the 69th Street Twin.

65
00:04:09,717 --> 00:04:11,750
Mr. Ryder, do you
                  happen to have

66
00:04:11,752 --> 00:04:14,386
a photo of her
           that we could borrow?

67
00:04:14,388 --> 00:04:16,788
Daddy...

68
00:04:17,858 --> 00:04:20,759
Daddy, is something wrong?

00:04:25,499 --> 00:04:27,799
Where's Mommy?

People committing suicide

72
00:04:35,609 --> 00:04:38,744
Not exactly what New Yorkers
      want to see in the winter.

73
00:04:38,746 --> 00:04:41,546
We sold 86 tickets.

74
00:04:41,548 --> 00:04:43,849
One to her?

75
00:04:43,851 --> 00:04:49,354
I'm so bored I'm working
with my eyes closed.

76
00:04:49,356 --> 00:04:51,423
Okay, thanks.

77
00:04:54,428 --> 00:04:57,429
Six more bars,
       four Korean fruit stands.

78
00:04:57,431 --> 00:04:58,830
Nobody saw her.

79
00:04:58,832 --> 00:05:00,432
What's he got?

80
00:05:00,434 --> 00:05:02,367
Suicide.

81
00:05:02,369 --> 00:05:04,369
In Swedish.

00:05:09,643 --> 00:05:11,877
She ate an hour before
           she died-- meat, huh?

85
00:05:11,879 --> 00:05:13,512
Maybe she found
          an art house

86
00:05:13,514 --> 00:05:15,480
that served carpaccio
      with her cappuccino.

87
00:05:15,482 --> 00:05:17,749
Hey, you find semen
              in the vagina, you
                  don't call us?

88
00:05:17,751 --> 00:05:20,419
Nobody said it was rape--
there's no sign of rape:

89
00:05:20,421 --> 00:05:21,920
no tearing, no abrasions...

90
00:05:21,922 --> 00:05:23,655
Her husband was out of town.

91
00:05:23,657 --> 00:05:25,390
to know that?
I'm supposed

92
00:05:25,392 --> 00:05:27,459
What am I, his travel agent?

93
00:05:27,460 --> 00:05:29,527
What time
                  did she do it?
Before midnight last night--

94
00:05:29,530 --> 00:05:32,147
sperm cells were dead
this morning.

95
00:05:32,148 --> 00:05:34,765
And after midnight Friday--
I found acid phosphatase,
seminal fluid.

96
00:05:34,768 --> 00:05:37,469
Disappears 48 hours
after intercourse.

97
00:05:37,471 --> 00:05:40,505
Of course, it's also found
in cauliflower juice.

98
00:05:40,507 --> 00:05:44,443
Oh, I think we can
         rule out a cauliflower.

99
00:05:44,445 --> 00:05:45,811
Your friend Saperstein
    from the three-six?

100
00:05:45,813 --> 00:05:48,613
Jewelry from one
      of the other murders

101
00:05:48,615 --> 00:05:51,883
turned up in the diamond
    district-- not traceable.

102
00:05:51,885 --> 00:05:55,787
Why does she go to a late movie
with two little kids at home?

103
00:05:55,789 --> 00:05:57,656
Maybe because she<i> had</i>
two little kids at home.

104
00:05:57,658 --> 00:05:58,790
And because she has
                  a housekeeper.

105
00:05:58,792 --> 00:06:01,493
She's not going
        to tell the housekeeper

106
00:06:01,495 --> 00:06:02,861
where she's going?

107
00:06:02,863 --> 00:06:04,529
She had dinner,
she had sex.

108
00:06:04,531 --> 00:06:05,764
Spells boyfriend.

109
00:06:05,766 --> 00:06:07,532
Maybe a lovers' quarrel?

110
00:06:07,534 --> 00:06:09,968
Or the husband wasn't gone
      for four days.

111
00:06:09,970 --> 00:06:12,871
Well, it would be nice to know
   who she was sleeping with.

112
00:06:12,873 --> 00:06:14,806
You're gonna have
     to go see the husband.

113
00:06:14,808 --> 00:06:16,808
Boy, if it wasn't him

114
00:06:16,810 --> 00:06:21,046
this is a lousy time
to bring him that kind of news.

115
00:06:21,048 --> 00:06:22,981
My son's under sedation.

116
00:06:22,983 --> 00:06:24,816
This is not a good time.

117
00:06:24,818 --> 00:06:27,552
We really do have
        to talk to him.

118
00:06:27,554 --> 00:06:29,988
The children, the
         funeral arrangements...

119
00:06:29,990 --> 00:06:31,857
he's very upset.

120
00:06:31,859 --> 00:06:33,592
Mr. Ryder,
      sorry to bother you.

121
00:06:33,594 --> 00:06:35,761
If we could just
    have a minute privately.

122
00:06:35,763 --> 00:06:38,530
The family
            is in this together.

123
00:06:38,532 --> 00:06:41,500
CERRETA:
                I really
                don't think...

124
00:06:41,502 --> 00:06:43,502
No.

125
00:06:43,504 --> 00:06:45,470
We'll talk.

126
00:06:45,472 --> 00:06:47,873
Your wife--
    there's medical evidence

127
00:06:47,875 --> 00:06:50,509
that indicates that she had
       intimate relations

128
00:06:50,511 --> 00:06:52,677
in the 48 hours
        before she died.

129
00:06:52,679 --> 00:06:55,046
Well, that's impossible.
             Um...

130
00:06:55,048 --> 00:06:58,583
I went to Southampton
          on Thursday.

131
00:06:58,585 --> 00:07:01,920
Well, if it wasn't you...

132
00:07:01,922 --> 00:07:04,055
What are you saying?

133
00:07:04,057 --> 00:07:07,526
My wife was having an affair?

134
00:07:07,528 --> 00:07:09,494
I'm sure Lois

135
00:07:09,496 --> 00:07:11,863
was doing no such thing.

136
00:07:11,865 --> 00:07:13,031
If we could track
         her movements

137
00:07:13,033 --> 00:07:15,567
we might find a witness
         to her murder.

138
00:07:15,569 --> 00:07:17,135
It can't be.

139
00:07:17,137 --> 00:07:20,071
I know my wife.
                   It's possible
              the lab was wrong.

140
00:07:20,073 --> 00:07:23,008
If you would just
              take a blood test,
             we'd know it's you,

141
00:07:23,010 --> 00:07:25,510
We don't have to look for
     someone that doesn't exist.

142
00:07:25,512 --> 00:07:27,045
My daughter-in-law
is dead,

143
00:07:27,047 --> 00:07:29,714
my grandchildren
don't have a mother,

144
00:07:29,716 --> 00:07:33,585
and you want to drag my son
through some cheap scandal.

145
00:07:36,023 --> 00:07:38,790
I don't think so. No.

146
00:07:38,792 --> 00:07:41,159
LOGAN:
<i> So, you tell me,</i>
      <i> what's the big deal</i>

147
00:07:41,161 --> 00:07:42,761
about taking
                   a blood test?

148
00:07:42,763 --> 00:07:44,029
Your wife just died.

149
00:07:44,031 --> 00:07:45,897
Maybe you don't
like being asked

150
00:07:45,899 --> 00:07:48,133
to prove that she
         wasn't sleeping around.

151
00:07:48,135 --> 00:07:50,836
Maybe he didn't want us to know
  he saw her over the weekend.

152
00:07:50,838 --> 00:07:52,571
Your guy Ryder--
      draft bait Vietnam.

153
00:07:52,573 --> 00:07:54,573
Joined the National Guard,
      Dan Quayle Brigade.

154
00:07:54,575 --> 00:07:56,575
The army found
his DD-214.

155
00:07:56,577 --> 00:07:57,776
Blood type "A."

156
00:07:57,778 --> 00:07:59,578
Doesn't match the semen.

157
00:07:59,580 --> 00:08:01,713
So why won't he take the test?

158
00:08:01,715 --> 00:08:04,333
Like I said--

159
00:08:04,334 --> 00:08:06,952
grieving husband, privacy,
 maybe he just don't like cops.

160
00:08:06,954 --> 00:08:08,753
wouldn't match.
                Maybe he knew it

161
00:08:08,755 --> 00:08:10,789
Didn't want us to know
      she had a boyfriend

162
00:08:10,791 --> 00:08:12,123
and that he had a motive.

163
00:08:12,125 --> 00:08:14,793
I'll tell you one person
who saw her before she died--

164
00:08:14,795 --> 00:08:16,761
the boyfriend.

165
00:08:16,763 --> 00:08:18,063
Where do you have her last?

166
00:08:18,065 --> 00:08:20,799
The housekeeper says
         the hospital--

167
00:08:20,801 --> 00:08:22,868
Carnegie Hill,
volunteer work.

168
00:08:22,870 --> 00:08:24,703
What are you waiting for?

169
00:08:24,705 --> 00:08:27,105
I need people
    to hold patients' hands.

170
00:08:27,107 --> 00:08:30,075
Most volunteers, they want
to work the resale shop

171
00:08:30,077 --> 00:08:32,944
on Madison--
first dibs on the used Adolfos.

172
00:08:32,946 --> 00:08:35,113
So you didn't know
Mrs. Ryder well?

173
00:08:35,115 --> 00:08:36,848
Ryder money built
                  this hospital.

174
00:08:36,850 --> 00:08:38,650
Lois should've been part
         of that crowd,

175
00:08:38,652 --> 00:08:40,051
but she didn't understand
           the game.

176
00:08:40,053 --> 00:08:42,821
Worked the pediatric
                cancer ward.

177
00:08:42,823 --> 00:08:46,024
Did she ever tell you
about her life?

178
00:08:46,026 --> 00:08:48,760
LOGAN:
We think she had

179
00:08:48,762 --> 00:08:50,195
a boyfriend.

180
00:08:52,032 --> 00:08:53,765
I wouldn't know.

181
00:08:53,767 --> 00:08:56,034
CERRETA:
Miss Phillips...

182
00:08:56,036 --> 00:08:58,837
you can either tell<i> us</i>
or a grand jury.

183
00:08:58,839 --> 00:08:59,971
He's married.

184
00:08:59,973 --> 00:09:01,106
He has kids.

185
00:09:01,108 --> 00:09:02,908
Leave him out of it.

186
00:09:02,910 --> 00:09:04,175
He's already in it.

187
00:09:04,177 --> 00:09:06,177
What's his name?

188
00:09:09,149 --> 00:09:12,684
Joel Friedman,
      chief of pediatrics.

189
00:09:15,756 --> 00:09:17,122
Lois Ryder.

190
00:09:17,124 --> 00:09:19,124
Of course I knew her.

191
00:09:19,126 --> 00:09:22,027
She volunteered
        at the hospital.

192
00:09:22,029 --> 00:09:24,896
Were you with her
                   Sunday night?

193
00:09:24,898 --> 00:09:27,766
I don't know
   what you're talking about.

194
00:09:27,768 --> 00:09:29,968
We'll make it easy
for you.

195
00:09:29,970 --> 00:09:32,137
Sunday night,
                     Lois Ryder,

196
00:09:32,139 --> 00:09:34,773
you, together.

197
00:09:34,775 --> 00:09:38,743
Do you want us
                     to tell you
your rights?

198
00:09:38,745 --> 00:09:40,812
Who is it, honey?

199
00:09:43,016 --> 00:09:45,150
Uh, I'll get my coat.

200
00:09:45,152 --> 00:09:48,219
CERRETA:
     <i> We want a blood test.</i>

201
00:09:48,221 --> 00:09:51,056
And if you're not going
to give it to us

202
00:09:51,058 --> 00:09:52,924
we'll get a court order.
               Relax, gentlemen.

203
00:09:52,926 --> 00:09:54,993
Joel.

204
00:10:00,767 --> 00:10:04,035
I was with her.

205
00:10:04,037 --> 00:10:07,072
We'd been seeing
                      each other

206
00:10:07,074 --> 00:10:09,774
about five months.

207
00:10:09,776 --> 00:10:12,043
Normally, I...

208
00:10:12,045 --> 00:10:14,779
I wouldn't see her
        at my apartment.

209
00:10:14,781 --> 00:10:16,281
She called.

210
00:10:16,283 --> 00:10:18,049
She wanted to talk.

211
00:10:18,051 --> 00:10:19,985
CERRETA:
Her husband says

212
00:10:19,987 --> 00:10:22,053
they were happily married.

213
00:10:22,055 --> 00:10:24,322
Really?

214
00:10:29,062 --> 00:10:31,162
No.

215
00:10:31,164 --> 00:10:34,933
No. There's a picture
      in the Ryder house.

216
00:10:34,935 --> 00:10:37,902
Lois told me.

217
00:10:37,904 --> 00:10:41,172
His grandmother on a camel,
          Egypt, 1930.

218
00:10:41,174 --> 00:10:44,075
In 1930, her grandmother
      was scrubbing floors

219
00:10:44,077 --> 00:10:46,211
in East Orange, New Jersey,

220
00:10:46,213 --> 00:10:50,815
and the Ryders
   never let her forget that.

221
00:10:50,817 --> 00:10:53,118
I can't be involved in this.

222
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:57,022
Did her husband know
       about the affair?

223
00:10:59,993 --> 00:11:04,029
I saw him last month
   at a hospital fund-raiser.

224
00:11:04,031 --> 00:11:06,031
He smirked at me.

225
00:11:06,033 --> 00:11:07,832
He knew.

226
00:11:10,137 --> 00:11:14,272
Lois didn't understand
      what she was doing.

227
00:11:14,274 --> 00:11:17,042
I did.

228
00:11:17,044 --> 00:11:20,045
I was there
to make him jealous.

229
00:11:20,047 --> 00:11:21,179
He's cooperating.

230
00:11:21,181 --> 00:11:23,214
He didn't kill her.

231
00:11:23,216 --> 00:11:26,051
I know it.
                    You know it.

232
00:11:33,894 --> 00:11:35,026
She's using him.

233
00:11:35,028 --> 00:11:36,895
Maybe he loses
                     his temper.

234
00:11:36,896 --> 00:11:38,763
The elevator man says
the doc's wife got home

235
00:11:38,765 --> 00:11:40,131
40 minutes after
Lois Ryder left.

236
00:11:40,133 --> 00:11:42,133
He was waiting
at the door for her.

237
00:11:42,135 --> 00:11:43,802
That gives him just
              about enough time.

238
00:11:43,804 --> 00:11:45,270
Fire escape dumps
      into a locked yard,

239
00:11:45,272 --> 00:11:47,806
there's a tall fence--
      so the doc goes out,

240
00:11:47,808 --> 00:11:49,274
climbs the fence,
clobbers Lois Ryder,

241
00:11:49,276 --> 00:11:52,243
hauls her body from the west
     side to the east side

242
00:11:52,245 --> 00:11:55,146
and gets home just in time
    to kiss his wife hello?

243
00:11:55,148 --> 00:11:58,149
What is he, Houdini?
                           Yeah.

244
00:11:58,151 --> 00:12:02,120
The doc here says that
            Ryder knew about him

245
00:12:02,122 --> 00:12:05,223
and Ryder said
                 he<i> didn't</i> know.

246
00:12:08,028 --> 00:12:09,260
I knew.

247
00:12:11,164 --> 00:12:17,102
I just didn't see why the rest
of the world had to know.

248
00:12:17,104 --> 00:12:19,638
<i> We</i> had to know.

249
00:12:19,639 --> 00:12:22,173
He was one of the last
        people to see her alive.

250
00:12:22,175 --> 00:12:23,975
My granddaughter--

251
00:12:23,977 --> 00:12:26,177
should she read
                in the newspaper

252
00:12:26,179 --> 00:12:28,179
about her mother's
                infidelity?

253
00:12:28,181 --> 00:12:30,949
And especially
        with someone so foreign.

254
00:12:30,951 --> 00:12:33,218
Yes. He's from the west side.

255
00:12:33,220 --> 00:12:36,221
You know what I mean--
   he was not of our element.

256
00:12:36,223 --> 00:12:40,091
No Jewish doctors
      in your crowd, huh?

257
00:12:40,093 --> 00:12:42,060
LOGAN:
               Mr. Ryder, let me

258
00:12:42,062 --> 00:12:43,995
ask you something.

259
00:12:43,997 --> 00:12:45,864
Your wife's affair--

260
00:12:45,866 --> 00:12:48,333
you didn't have a problem
            with it?

261
00:12:48,335 --> 00:12:52,003
Look, this thing
    with Dr. Friedman--

262
00:12:52,005 --> 00:12:54,472
my wife and I discussed it.

263
00:12:54,474 --> 00:12:56,207
It was ending...

264
00:12:56,209 --> 00:12:58,476
and frankly,
i don't think

265
00:12:58,478 --> 00:13:01,246
he was very happy about it.

266
00:13:04,351 --> 00:13:06,217
First, Ryder sends us
to the movies

267
00:13:06,219 --> 00:13:08,086
but his wife
didn't go to the movies.

268
00:13:08,088 --> 00:13:10,221
Then he points
                  at the doctor.
         It's all crap,

269
00:13:10,223 --> 00:13:12,435
and it's all coming
                     from Ryder.

270
00:13:12,436 --> 00:13:14,648
So maybe he came into town early
and surprised the wife.

271
00:13:14,649 --> 00:13:16,861
Give us six guys, and
       this time we canvass with
             Ryder's photograph.

272
00:13:16,863 --> 00:13:19,230
Six guys-- why don't I just hire
       the Russian army?

273
00:13:19,232 --> 00:13:21,466
They're not busy.
            Don, first we do the
             doc's neighborhood,

274
00:13:21,468 --> 00:13:23,101
then we do Ryder's
                   neighborhood,

275
00:13:23,103 --> 00:13:24,969
and then we do where
                  she was found.

276
00:13:24,971 --> 00:13:29,140
Just give us
                 Profaci and Li.

277
00:13:29,142 --> 00:13:31,109
One shift.

278
00:13:34,981 --> 00:13:37,148
(<i> car horns honk</i> )

279
00:13:37,150 --> 00:13:41,152
I got a guy saw Ryder
   driving a newsdelivery truck.

280
00:13:41,154 --> 00:13:43,054
Now, it was either Ryder

281
00:13:43,056 --> 00:13:46,157
or it was a black guy
        looked exactly like him.

282
00:13:46,159 --> 00:13:50,061
I got a guy saw a U.F.O.
                     Pick up Li.

283
00:13:50,063 --> 00:13:52,430
Go home and say hello
              to Shirley for me,

284
00:13:52,432 --> 00:13:53,898
all right, Profaci?

285
00:13:53,900 --> 00:13:55,133
I'll see you, Phil.
                  Yeah.

286
00:13:55,135 --> 00:13:57,936
LOGAN:
          Phil! Phil!

287
00:13:59,139 --> 00:14:02,140
I love New York
this time of year.

288
00:14:02,142 --> 00:14:05,143
What, do you got somebody
           who saw him the night
                    she was hit?

289
00:14:05,145 --> 00:14:08,079
Not quite.
Come meet Mr. Lewis.

290
00:14:08,081 --> 00:14:09,414
Nice-looking lady.

291
00:14:09,416 --> 00:14:12,283
For me, a little old,
but great cheekbones.

292
00:14:12,285 --> 00:14:14,152
Tell him about the boys.

293
00:14:14,154 --> 00:14:17,155
Couple of weeks ago, two kids,
they're renting porn--

294
00:14:17,157 --> 00:14:20,191
<i>Vibrating Vixens.</i>
There ought to be a law.

295
00:14:20,193 --> 00:14:21,292
There<i> is</i> a law.

296
00:14:21,294 --> 00:14:22,493
Anyway, they're talking

297
00:14:22,495 --> 00:14:25,463
about the baseball bat guy,
the mugger.

298
00:14:25,465 --> 00:14:27,298
she comes in all the time.
The lady with the cheekbones,

299
00:14:27,300 --> 00:14:28,466
Art movies.

300
00:14:28,468 --> 00:14:30,301
Mrs. Ryder.
The one
in the picture.

301
00:14:30,303 --> 00:14:33,438
She gets upset,
she turns to the guy with her...

302
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:34,505
Mr. Ryder.

303
00:14:34,507 --> 00:14:36,040
She's all riled up.

304
00:14:36,042 --> 00:14:37,442
"What's wrong with society?"

305
00:14:37,444 --> 00:14:38,576
"Life is unfair."

306
00:14:38,578 --> 00:14:40,311
"No wonder they mug people."

307
00:14:40,313 --> 00:14:42,580
He says, "Can we finish
the speech when we get home?"

308
00:14:42,582 --> 00:14:44,949
Me, I say they ought
to get shot.

309
00:14:44,951 --> 00:14:48,019
Ryder knew
about the mugger.

310
00:14:48,021 --> 00:14:50,188
Thanks a lot.

311
00:14:50,190 --> 00:14:53,057
Now we know why he didn't want
to take the blood test.

312
00:14:53,059 --> 00:14:55,193
He didn't want us
to look for the boyfriend.

313
00:14:55,195 --> 00:14:57,996
We find the boyfriend,
               we find out Ryder
                knew who he was.

314
00:14:57,998 --> 00:15:01,165
He knows who he is,
he knows where to look
for his wife.

315
00:15:01,167 --> 00:15:03,067
He waits outside
the doc's apartment.

316
00:15:03,069 --> 00:15:06,170
That's Riverside Drive,
    11:00, nobody on the street.
Cracks her skull.

317
00:15:06,172 --> 00:15:09,107
Brings her over here
        across town, dumps her
in<i> this</i> neighborhood.

318
00:15:09,109 --> 00:15:12,110
Copycatting the mugger.
             And then figures we
             drop it right here.

319
00:15:12,112 --> 00:15:14,479
One more mugger victim--
           too bad. Case closed.

320
00:15:14,481 --> 00:15:17,448
My ass-- case open.

321
00:15:19,986 --> 00:15:21,452
1:00 A.M., he pulls in.

322
00:15:21,454 --> 00:15:23,521
Yeah, you know,
I just come on.

323
00:15:23,522 --> 00:15:25,589
Ryder says he came
     straight from Southampton--
         nothing says he didn't.

324
00:15:25,592 --> 00:15:28,092
"Traffic on a southern state,"
he said. Like I care.

325
00:15:28,094 --> 00:15:29,560
Not your favorite customer, huh?

326
00:15:29,562 --> 00:15:31,996
I get in, I want
to park the car--
                   he's yakking.

327
00:15:31,998 --> 00:15:33,531
His rent-a-place
                in the islands--

328
00:15:33,533 --> 00:15:36,234
the roof's broken,
      the pool's too hot.

329
00:15:36,236 --> 00:15:39,170
In the winter, I'm lucky
 if I get to Park Avenue South.

330
00:15:39,172 --> 00:15:41,139
Mr. Ryder--
is he always so cordial?

331
00:15:41,141 --> 00:15:43,641
I got to just sit
  in the cold car and listen.

332
00:15:43,643 --> 00:15:44,642
Cold?

333
00:15:44,644 --> 00:15:45,944
The car was cold?

334
00:15:45,946 --> 00:15:47,211
It was freezing.

335
00:15:47,213 --> 00:15:48,646
Thanks a lot.

336
00:15:48,648 --> 00:15:50,581
What is it to Southampton,
two hours?

337
00:15:50,583 --> 00:15:53,151
I go six blocks in my car,
and it overheats.

338
00:15:53,153 --> 00:15:56,154
He hit his wife,
then he went and sat
             in some coffee shop

339
00:15:56,156 --> 00:15:58,556
a couple of hours till
         the shift changed here.

340
00:15:58,558 --> 00:16:00,525
You want to canvass
10,000 coffee shops?

341
00:16:00,527 --> 00:16:02,660
I want to get
               in that damn car.

342
00:16:02,662 --> 00:16:05,563
Only if we impound the
         car, Ryder's gonna know
          we're sniffing around.

343
00:16:05,565 --> 00:16:07,131
I'm gonna dance
for the warrant.

344
00:16:07,133 --> 00:16:08,633
They can do it here.

345
00:16:12,605 --> 00:16:14,105
No blood in the car.

346
00:16:14,107 --> 00:16:15,707
Must have bagged her head.

347
00:16:15,709 --> 00:16:18,209
But C.S.U. tweezers
picked up fibers

348
00:16:18,211 --> 00:16:19,744
from Mrs. Ryder's sweater.

349
00:16:19,746 --> 00:16:21,579
Yeah, but where's
              that gonna get us?

350
00:16:21,581 --> 00:16:23,014
Even $800 cashmere sheds.

351
00:16:23,016 --> 00:16:24,666
It's her car.

352
00:16:24,667 --> 00:16:26,317
There's bound to be fibers
       from her clothes.

353
00:16:26,319 --> 00:16:29,020
In the trunk?

354
00:16:29,022 --> 00:16:30,254
Paul, I can guarantee it.

355
00:16:30,256 --> 00:16:31,889
He waits outside
           Friedman's apartment.

356
00:16:31,890 --> 00:16:33,523
He hits her, he drags
           the body across town,

357
00:16:33,526 --> 00:16:35,760
he dumps it, he makes it
            look like a mugging,

358
00:16:35,762 --> 00:16:38,029
he tells us she was
             down at the movies.

359
00:16:38,031 --> 00:16:39,731
It's a good story.
No evidence.

360
00:16:39,733 --> 00:16:42,033
We can barely convict
Ryder of lying.
           What about the fiber?

361
00:16:42,035 --> 00:16:43,668
It could have been there
for months.

362
00:16:43,670 --> 00:16:44,669
The car was cold.

363
00:16:44,671 --> 00:16:45,737
It wasn't bloody.

364
00:16:45,739 --> 00:16:47,472
want us to do?
Paul, what do you

365
00:16:47,473 --> 00:16:49,206
Hit every sporting goods store
     in the five boroughs,

366
00:16:49,209 --> 00:16:51,509
find a clerk who sold
    a middle-aged man a bat?

367
00:16:51,511 --> 00:16:52,777
Hey, hey, hey,
last time I looked

368
00:16:52,779 --> 00:16:55,613
we all got our paychecks
      from the same place.

369
00:16:55,615 --> 00:16:57,315
He is not the enemy.

370
00:16:57,317 --> 00:16:59,617
Give us something.
Like motive.
       Well, there's the affair,

371
00:16:59,619 --> 00:17:03,221
but the doc says that Ryder
   didn't even care about it.
                          Ryder?

372
00:17:03,223 --> 00:17:04,655
I guarantee he cared
     that his wife's lover

373
00:17:04,657 --> 00:17:06,724
was Jewish.
            Oh, come on,

374
00:17:06,725 --> 00:17:08,792
who cares about the religion
of the guy your wife is boffing?

375
00:17:08,795 --> 00:17:10,561
The Ryders.

376
00:17:10,563 --> 00:17:11,629
You heard what she said.

377
00:17:11,631 --> 00:17:13,798
"Not in our element."

378
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,666
An affair--
is that motive?

379
00:17:15,668 --> 00:17:18,236
What was going on
in the marriage?

380
00:17:18,238 --> 00:17:20,171
She must have told somebody.

381
00:17:20,173 --> 00:17:22,673
Let's get photostats
        of her datebook.

382
00:17:24,144 --> 00:17:28,079
K. Drinks, the Algonquin.

383
00:17:31,818 --> 00:17:35,386
Kent, lunch.

384
00:17:35,388 --> 00:17:37,388
K. Meeker.

385
00:17:37,390 --> 00:17:39,257
Dinner.

386
00:17:39,259 --> 00:17:40,658
Lutece.

387
00:17:43,063 --> 00:17:45,296
Kent, lunch.

388
00:17:45,298 --> 00:17:47,598
Le Perigord.

389
00:17:48,735 --> 00:17:51,803
What do we got,
another boyfriend?

390
00:17:51,805 --> 00:17:53,771
Lois and I?

391
00:17:53,773 --> 00:17:56,240
No. Just friends.

392
00:17:56,242 --> 00:17:58,376
Are you friends
                with Mr. Ryder?

393
00:17:58,378 --> 00:18:01,612
Prep school. We were
on the swimming team,
St. Luke's.

394
00:18:01,614 --> 00:18:03,147
I'm almost family.

395
00:18:03,149 --> 00:18:04,649
How about Mrs. Ryder?

396
00:18:04,651 --> 00:18:07,285
Is she<i> almost</i>
                   family, too?

397
00:18:07,287 --> 00:18:11,155
Lois was killed by a mugger,
isn't that right?

398
00:18:11,157 --> 00:18:13,691
This time that you spent
              with Mrs. Ryder...

399
00:18:13,693 --> 00:18:15,593
She came to me because...

400
00:18:15,595 --> 00:18:19,097
Let's say my pedigree
was marginally better than hers.

401
00:18:19,099 --> 00:18:21,165
She needed advice--
her marriage.

402
00:18:21,167 --> 00:18:22,700
What's wrong with it?

403
00:18:22,702 --> 00:18:24,435
Lois figured it went bad

404
00:18:24,437 --> 00:18:26,637
when Jonathan's mother
left the wedding reception

405
00:18:26,639 --> 00:18:27,738
before the florist did.

406
00:18:27,740 --> 00:18:29,440
My mother doesn't like my wife.

407
00:18:29,442 --> 00:18:31,676
I stopped worrying
        about that 20 years ago.

408
00:18:31,678 --> 00:18:34,345
<i>You</i> are not
Jonathan Ryder.

409
00:18:34,347 --> 00:18:37,348
You know,
  when we were in prep school

410
00:18:37,350 --> 00:18:39,183
he wasn't doing well.

411
00:18:39,185 --> 00:18:40,651
His mother comes up.

412
00:18:40,653 --> 00:18:42,720
There's a new
Ryder building.

413
00:18:42,722 --> 00:18:44,455
Suddenly his grades are fine.

414
00:18:44,457 --> 00:18:46,324
She never let him
forget that.

415
00:18:46,326 --> 00:18:47,425
That he was a screw-up?

416
00:18:47,427 --> 00:18:48,693
Takes its toll.

417
00:18:48,695 --> 00:18:51,229
He once booted the cat
        across the room.

418
00:18:51,231 --> 00:18:52,430
Did he ever boot his wife?

419
00:18:52,432 --> 00:18:53,865
Worse.

420
00:18:53,867 --> 00:18:58,436
Lois told me he offered her
    three million to leave.

421
00:18:58,438 --> 00:19:00,438
Just handed her a paper.

422
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,407
"Hi, honey. Sign this. Go away."

423
00:19:03,409 --> 00:19:05,143
She loved him.

424
00:19:05,145 --> 00:19:08,746
She wanted a marriage counselor.

425
00:19:08,748 --> 00:19:10,915
Yeah, but he could get a divorce
    with her or without her.

426
00:19:10,917 --> 00:19:12,817
Her share of joint property--

427
00:19:12,819 --> 00:19:14,285
in the neighborhood

428
00:19:14,287 --> 00:19:15,319
of 20 million.

429
00:19:15,321 --> 00:19:17,655
Unless she just happened to die.

430
00:19:17,657 --> 00:19:18,973
Jonathan?

431
00:19:18,974 --> 00:19:20,290
Doesn't have the giblets.

432
00:19:20,293 --> 00:19:22,226
Mama cut them off years ago.

433
00:19:22,228 --> 00:19:25,663
Maybe you should ask Barbara
 Ryder where<i> she</i> was that night.

434
00:19:25,665 --> 00:19:27,782
Ryder should have popped
           his mother

435
00:19:27,783 --> 00:19:29,900
and told her where to get off.
                  You the expert
                  on lousy moms?

436
00:19:29,903 --> 00:19:33,404
As a matter of fact,
i am.

437
00:19:33,406 --> 00:19:35,373
Mrs. Ryder's
           necklace and bracelet

438
00:19:35,375 --> 00:19:37,508
pawned in Chelsea, identified
  from insurance company photos.

439
00:19:37,510 --> 00:19:39,710
Who pawned them,
Jonathan Ryder's mother?

440
00:19:39,712 --> 00:19:43,247
Well, I really don't think she
frequents the New Era Pawnshop.

441
00:19:43,249 --> 00:19:45,183
When did that jewelry
            come in?

442
00:19:45,185 --> 00:19:47,451
Morning after the murder--
               pawn shop got our
                flier yesterday.

443
00:19:47,453 --> 00:19:48,920
Are we making this up?

444
00:19:48,922 --> 00:19:50,788
Was she killed by a mugger?

445
00:19:50,790 --> 00:19:53,824
Why don't you find
            the guy and ask him?

446
00:19:57,764 --> 00:19:59,764
CLERK:
    <i> What's with the muscle?</i>

447
00:19:59,766 --> 00:20:01,933
I saw the circular
and I called.

448
00:20:01,935 --> 00:20:05,236
I'm going to eat the money
I gave that creep.

449
00:20:05,238 --> 00:20:07,438
Since when have you become
        so law-abiding?

450
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,541
Since I did one-to-three
for receiving.

451
00:20:10,543 --> 00:20:13,511
My wife likes me home
for the holidays.

452
00:20:13,513 --> 00:20:16,214
Okay, good. Thanks.

453
00:20:16,215 --> 00:20:18,916
Hey. Hey, your Mr. Everett
who pawned the jewelry? Bad I.D.

454
00:20:18,918 --> 00:20:20,851
His license was stolen
        three weeks ago.

455
00:20:20,853 --> 00:20:23,421
The law says get an I.D.
I got one.

456
00:20:23,423 --> 00:20:25,790
Oh, yeah? Did you look
     at the picture on it?

457
00:20:25,792 --> 00:20:27,458
What color was he?

458
00:20:27,460 --> 00:20:28,526
White.

459
00:20:28,528 --> 00:20:30,561
No. The real Mr. Everett
           is black.

460
00:20:30,563 --> 00:20:32,496
You didn't look too good.

461
00:20:32,498 --> 00:20:35,967
Mikey, this guy
                 laid out $4,000

462
00:20:35,969 --> 00:20:38,236
on a fake I.D.--
              what do you think?

463
00:20:38,238 --> 00:20:40,271
I think he's probably got
    other stolen stuff here.

464
00:20:40,273 --> 00:20:41,739
I think I should open
           the safe.

465
00:20:41,741 --> 00:20:45,309
He had a wild look.
Th... This guy is crazy.

466
00:20:45,311 --> 00:20:46,477
He could kill me.

467
00:20:46,479 --> 00:20:48,446
I don't want trouble.

468
00:20:48,448 --> 00:20:50,348
From him or from us?

469
00:20:50,350 --> 00:20:52,316
Who's it going to be?

470
00:20:52,318 --> 00:20:53,918
Give me the name.

471
00:20:57,457 --> 00:21:01,792
I guess the middle class really
is moving out of New York.

472
00:21:01,794 --> 00:21:03,561
Fourteen.

473
00:21:08,501 --> 00:21:10,501
(<i> knocking</i> )

474
00:21:10,503 --> 00:21:11,936
Henry Willard?

475
00:21:11,938 --> 00:21:14,005
New York City Police!

476
00:21:15,508 --> 00:21:17,375
Go to it, big guy.

477
00:21:19,912 --> 00:21:21,579
(<i> man yelling</i> )

478
00:21:28,921 --> 00:21:30,855
No.

479
00:21:33,459 --> 00:21:34,925
Tough guy, huh?

480
00:21:34,927 --> 00:21:38,462
Guess we interrupted
his recreation.

481
00:21:38,464 --> 00:21:41,365
MAN:
    Come on, get out of here.

482
00:21:41,367 --> 00:21:42,533
Henry. Henry.

483
00:21:42,535 --> 00:21:44,035
Your driver's license.

484
00:21:44,037 --> 00:21:46,070
Your I.D.
at the pawnshop, Henry?

485
00:21:46,072 --> 00:21:48,039
You mugged a guy
to get them.

486
00:21:48,041 --> 00:21:49,573
Not to mention,
        mugging the lady.

487
00:21:49,575 --> 00:21:51,042
She's in pretty bad shape.

488
00:21:51,044 --> 00:21:53,377
You better hope
        she can't identify you.

489
00:21:53,379 --> 00:21:54,945
I found that
                     stuff, man.

490
00:21:54,947 --> 00:21:56,647
On Mrs. Ryder.

491
00:21:56,648 --> 00:21:58,348
In a Dumpster,
         Penn Station somewhere.

492
00:21:58,351 --> 00:22:00,451
Middle of the night,
   I was high, I don't remember.

493
00:22:00,453 --> 00:22:02,520
You're a real specimen, Henry--

494
00:22:02,522 --> 00:22:04,522
stupid, drugged, and violent.

495
00:22:06,426 --> 00:22:07,992
Thanks.

496
00:22:07,994 --> 00:22:09,994
Okay, Henry.

497
00:22:09,996 --> 00:22:13,998
These are the insurance photos
of the jewelry.

498
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,433
Pay attention!

499
00:22:15,435 --> 00:22:17,902
This is the bracelet.

500
00:22:17,904 --> 00:22:20,438
This is the necklace.

501
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,606
This is the pin.

502
00:22:22,608 --> 00:22:23,974
Over here!

503
00:22:23,976 --> 00:22:25,509
Where's this pin?

504
00:22:25,511 --> 00:22:27,645
There was no damn pin.

505
00:22:27,647 --> 00:22:29,013
Henry,

506
00:22:29,015 --> 00:22:31,082
don't you want us
to tell the D.A.

507
00:22:31,084 --> 00:22:32,416
that you cooperated?
Huh? Huh?

508
00:22:32,418 --> 00:22:35,019
Get me a lawyer.

509
00:22:36,089 --> 00:22:38,055
Mr. Willard's yellow sheets.

510
00:22:38,057 --> 00:22:39,957
B and E,
                 mugging, crack.

511
00:22:39,959 --> 00:22:42,493
He mugs for jewelry,
      sells it for drugs.

512
00:22:42,495 --> 00:22:43,594
I got a problem.

513
00:22:43,596 --> 00:22:44,995
The guy's a wacko.

514
00:22:44,997 --> 00:22:46,530
He swung a table at us.

515
00:22:46,532 --> 00:22:48,366
I don't see the
              problem. Book him.

516
00:22:48,368 --> 00:22:49,600
A table,
not a baseball bat.

517
00:22:49,602 --> 00:22:52,470
There wasn't a bat
in the room.

518
00:22:52,472 --> 00:22:55,573
What's, he gonna buy a new bat
every time he mugs someone?
              Listen to this.

519
00:22:55,575 --> 00:22:59,076
Bracelet, diamonds,
  made by Harry Winston, 1979.

520
00:22:59,078 --> 00:23:00,511
Appraised 18 grand.

521
00:23:00,513 --> 00:23:04,081
Necklace, diamonds
and rubies, 30 G's.

522
00:23:04,083 --> 00:23:05,983
Harry Winston, 1985.

523
00:23:05,985 --> 00:23:10,454
Pin, silver. A thousand bucks,
    Lucien Peller, 1931.

524
00:23:10,456 --> 00:23:12,890
Yeah?
 Well, suppose Mr. Congeniality
            in there

525
00:23:12,892 --> 00:23:15,009
is telling us the truth.

526
00:23:15,010 --> 00:23:17,127
He found the expensive necklace
  and bracelet in the Dumpster

527
00:23:17,130 --> 00:23:18,963
but not
    the thousand-dollar pin.

528
00:23:18,965 --> 00:23:21,132
Ryder. He threw
the new stuff away.

529
00:23:21,134 --> 00:23:22,533
It was only money.

530
00:23:22,535 --> 00:23:24,535
The pin was an heirloom.

531
00:23:24,537 --> 00:23:27,705
You telling me he killed her,
      then started feeling

532
00:23:27,707 --> 00:23:29,473
a little sentimental,
         kept the pin?

533
00:23:29,475 --> 00:23:30,975
The city house

534
00:23:30,977 --> 00:23:32,510
the country house,
<i>and</i> the mother's house.

535
00:23:32,512 --> 00:23:34,478
This time<i> you</i> dance
for the warrant.

536
00:23:41,754 --> 00:23:44,722
Tennis rackets, skis,
      polo mallets, and...

537
00:23:44,724 --> 00:23:46,157
What is this?

538
00:23:46,159 --> 00:23:47,191
A lacrosse stick.

539
00:23:47,193 --> 00:23:49,660
My son hasn't played
in years.

540
00:23:51,164 --> 00:23:53,464
You mind if I use
        your phone again?

541
00:23:53,466 --> 00:23:54,598
Not at all.

542
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,033
No baseball bats.

543
00:23:56,035 --> 00:23:58,602
You should wait
                for my attorney.

544
00:23:58,604 --> 00:23:59,937
Yes, ma'am.

545
00:23:59,939 --> 00:24:02,206
The law says
we don't have to.

546
00:24:02,208 --> 00:24:04,642
Get me Detective Li, please.
            Thanks.

547
00:24:04,644 --> 00:24:06,210
Hey. Logan.

548
00:24:06,212 --> 00:24:08,579
You find anything?

549
00:24:08,581 --> 00:24:10,981
Oh. Thanks.

550
00:24:10,983 --> 00:24:13,117
Nothing
on the other side of town.

551
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,186
Ryder says
    they wrinkled his suits.

552
00:24:15,188 --> 00:24:16,220
Yeah?

553
00:24:16,222 --> 00:24:18,489
Well, he may not
be wearing them

554
00:24:18,491 --> 00:24:19,957
for a while.

555
00:24:19,959 --> 00:24:23,027
Pin, silver, 1931.

556
00:24:33,573 --> 00:24:35,706
Docket number 5231.

557
00:24:35,708 --> 00:24:37,708
<i>The people v. Jonathan Ryder.</i>

558
00:24:37,710 --> 00:24:39,910
The charge is murder
        in the second degree.

559
00:24:39,912 --> 00:24:41,745
How does the defendant plead?

560
00:24:41,747 --> 00:24:43,547
Not guilty.

561
00:24:43,549 --> 00:24:45,549
The people seek
 substantial bail, Your Honor.

562
00:24:45,551 --> 00:24:47,117
The charge is murder.

563
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,053
So I heard, Mr. Robinette.

564
00:24:49,055 --> 00:24:50,721
Mr. Webber?

565
00:24:50,723 --> 00:24:52,690
Your Honor, Mr. Ryder is
           a well-established...

566
00:24:52,692 --> 00:24:53,757
i know who he is.

567
00:24:53,759 --> 00:24:54,925
500,000.

568
00:24:54,927 --> 00:24:56,660
He can afford it.

569
00:24:56,662 --> 00:24:58,696
Usual travel restrictions.

570
00:24:58,698 --> 00:25:00,831
(<i> gavel bangs</i> )

571
00:25:03,603 --> 00:25:07,004
Paul, Mr. Ryder's mother,
                    his sister--

572
00:25:07,006 --> 00:25:10,841
they were all playing bridge
        the night of the murder.

573
00:25:10,843 --> 00:25:11,909
Alibi witnesses.

574
00:25:11,911 --> 00:25:13,878
Bridge? Three of them?

575
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,648
I believe a computer
        made up the fourth hand.

576
00:25:17,650 --> 00:25:19,850
Is the computer
    going to testify, too?

577
00:25:19,852 --> 00:25:22,820
Well, who do you
                and Stone have?

578
00:25:22,822 --> 00:25:25,990
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir?

579
00:25:25,992 --> 00:25:27,691
Anything to avoid it.

580
00:25:27,693 --> 00:25:29,960
I don't want to testify.

581
00:25:29,962 --> 00:25:33,097
A murder trial
                isn't a matter

582
00:25:33,099 --> 00:25:34,832
of personal convenience.

583
00:25:34,834 --> 00:25:38,102
My daughter comes home
    at 3:00 in the morning.

584
00:25:38,104 --> 00:25:42,072
My son wants to know
why his mother won't talk to me.

585
00:25:42,074 --> 00:25:44,808
They'll turn my life
    into tabloid headlines.

586
00:25:44,810 --> 00:25:46,810
What do you need me for?

587
00:25:46,812 --> 00:25:49,880
Your affair,
  Mr. Ryder's awareness of it,

588
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:53,083
what time Mrs. Ryder
            left your apartment.

589
00:25:53,085 --> 00:25:55,853
I don't know anything
       about the murder.

590
00:25:55,855 --> 00:25:57,855
If you cared for Mrs. Ryder...

591
00:25:57,857 --> 00:26:00,891
I loved her.

592
00:26:00,893 --> 00:26:03,627
I wanted to marry her.

593
00:26:03,629 --> 00:26:04,995
My kids...

594
00:26:04,997 --> 00:26:06,997
I couldn't leave my wife.

595
00:26:06,999 --> 00:26:09,066
She wouldn't survive.

596
00:26:09,068 --> 00:26:12,202
I'm on the board
        of six Jewish charities.

597
00:26:12,204 --> 00:26:17,207
I... I know that sounds stupid,
            but...

598
00:26:17,209 --> 00:26:19,577
that's my life.

599
00:26:19,579 --> 00:26:23,180
If you don't testify,
  I'll cite you for contempt.

600
00:26:25,084 --> 00:26:28,085
I can't bring her back.

601
00:26:28,087 --> 00:26:31,221
I want to salvage
    what's left of my life.

602
00:26:31,223 --> 00:26:33,090
Cite me for contempt.

603
00:26:33,092 --> 00:26:34,959
I'll pay the fine.

604
00:26:34,961 --> 00:26:38,228
My lawyer said
      you won't put me in jail.

605
00:26:43,836 --> 00:26:45,903
BARBARA:
         <i> Mr. Robinette,</i>

606
00:26:45,905 --> 00:26:49,073
we thought it would be
        more convenient for you

607
00:26:49,075 --> 00:26:50,741
if you saw us together.

608
00:26:50,743 --> 00:26:53,744
Your lawyer said you wouldn't
see me any other way.

609
00:26:53,746 --> 00:26:55,179
Oh, there must be
          some misunderstanding.

610
00:26:55,181 --> 00:26:57,848
I hope we can dispose
of this situation.

611
00:26:57,850 --> 00:27:00,017
Why don't we sit down.

612
00:27:00,019 --> 00:27:04,221
We left Jonathan's house
       just after 11:00.

613
00:27:04,223 --> 00:27:06,256
Did you notice the time, too,
        Mrs. Dickey?

614
00:27:06,258 --> 00:27:08,158
Jane never wears a watch.

615
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,894
I've tried to convince her
                for years.

616
00:27:10,896 --> 00:27:13,664
You left your brother's house

617
00:27:13,666 --> 00:27:14,932
with your mother.

618
00:27:14,934 --> 00:27:17,768
Jane's staying with me
        in the country.

619
00:27:17,770 --> 00:27:20,904
We were so sorry
      to hear about Lois.

620
00:27:20,906 --> 00:27:22,740
BARBARA:
May I be frank,

621
00:27:22,742 --> 00:27:25,109
Mr. Robinette?

622
00:27:25,111 --> 00:27:27,144
I'm very worried about my son,

623
00:27:27,146 --> 00:27:30,881
as I'm sure your mother
would worry about you.

624
00:27:30,883 --> 00:27:34,018
Jonathan's been accused
            of a horrible crime.

625
00:27:34,020 --> 00:27:37,921
I spoke with him this morning.

626
00:27:37,923 --> 00:27:40,090
He hasn't left his house
                        in days.

627
00:27:40,092 --> 00:27:42,760
JANE:
Now that you have our statement

628
00:27:42,762 --> 00:27:45,062
you'll drop the charges,
        won't you?

629
00:27:45,064 --> 00:27:47,197
We are certain it was 11:00.

630
00:27:47,199 --> 00:27:51,168
My late husband
        insisted I be punctual.

631
00:27:51,170 --> 00:27:55,139
I always know the time.

632
00:27:55,141 --> 00:27:58,042
Think they'll hold up
         on the stand?
Paul says

633
00:27:58,044 --> 00:28:00,678
the sister's just like Ryder,
    under his mama's thumb.

634
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,981
She's convinced her daughter
    to commit perjury.

635
00:28:03,983 --> 00:28:06,717
She drove her son
to kill his wife.

636
00:28:06,719 --> 00:28:08,752
The paper Ryder asked
               his wife to sign?

637
00:28:08,754 --> 00:28:11,255
You wonder why she didn't take
      the three million to walk?

638
00:28:11,257 --> 00:28:12,690
Paragraph seven.

639
00:28:12,692 --> 00:28:15,192
He wanted her
to give up the kids?

640
00:28:15,194 --> 00:28:18,062
Sure. To them,
      the mother is disposable.

641
00:28:18,064 --> 00:28:19,296
The children are Ryders.

642
00:28:19,298 --> 00:28:22,032
She went, they stayed.
            Lovely.

643
00:28:22,034 --> 00:28:24,034
Why didn't Ryder burn this?

644
00:28:24,036 --> 00:28:26,904
we were looking for it.
Didn't know

645
00:28:26,906 --> 00:28:29,973
We got it from
his corporate lawyer.
           They let you have it?

646
00:28:29,975 --> 00:28:31,308
It's attorney work product.

647
00:28:31,310 --> 00:28:33,110
Ryder wrote that himself.

648
00:28:33,112 --> 00:28:34,812
They can't claim privilege.

649
00:28:34,814 --> 00:28:37,081
Couldn't have got it
              from Ryder anyway.
Why not?

650
00:28:37,083 --> 00:28:38,015
You're gonna love this.

651
00:28:38,017 --> 00:28:39,750
His mother said he was home.

652
00:28:39,752 --> 00:28:41,285
They went to serve
             a subpoena on him--

653
00:28:41,287 --> 00:28:43,053
not in the city
                or Southampton.

654
00:28:43,055 --> 00:28:45,055
The housekeeper gave
            me the limo service.

655
00:28:45,057 --> 00:28:47,291
Dropped him and
              the kids at J.F.K.

656
00:28:47,293 --> 00:28:48,992
Sun Air terminal.

657
00:28:48,994 --> 00:28:50,160
International.

658
00:28:50,162 --> 00:28:52,730
Ryder has a winter house?

659
00:28:52,732 --> 00:28:54,798
Two. Palm Beach--
                where he isn't--
                   and Barbados.

660
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,968
The bail conditions say
     he can't leave the country.

661
00:28:57,970 --> 00:28:59,136
He broke bail.

662
00:29:01,173 --> 00:29:04,975
JUDGE:
        <i> It looks to me</i>
        <i> like your client</i>

663
00:29:04,977 --> 00:29:06,977
was fleeing this jurisdiction.

664
00:29:06,979 --> 00:29:09,179
Mr. Ryder had no intention
          of flight, Your Honor.

665
00:29:09,181 --> 00:29:12,116
He wanted to get his children
            away from the press.

666
00:29:12,118 --> 00:29:13,851
I put people in jail

667
00:29:13,853 --> 00:29:16,220
because they don't have
        25¢ for bail.

668
00:29:16,222 --> 00:29:18,055
Mr. Ryder thinks the rules

669
00:29:18,057 --> 00:29:20,023
don't apply to him?

670
00:29:20,025 --> 00:29:21,992
I advised him
               it was all right.

671
00:29:21,994 --> 00:29:23,160
At worst, a
            technical violation.

672
00:29:23,162 --> 00:29:24,361
Bad advice, Counselor.

673
00:29:24,363 --> 00:29:26,130
Very bad advice.

674
00:29:26,132 --> 00:29:30,868
I've got a technical solution
for your technical violation.

675
00:29:30,870 --> 00:29:32,236
Mr. Ryder likes islands?

676
00:29:32,238 --> 00:29:35,172
I've got one for him--
            Rikers.

677
00:29:35,174 --> 00:29:36,840
This is ridiculous.

678
00:29:36,842 --> 00:29:37,975
Your Honor...

679
00:29:37,977 --> 00:29:39,109
Bail is revoked.

680
00:29:39,111 --> 00:29:41,145
Ryder in jail for two months?

681
00:29:41,147 --> 00:29:44,882
His idea of a rough weekend
is a picnic with warm champagne.

682
00:29:44,884 --> 00:29:47,885
Do you think he'll start
   blabbing to his cell mate?

683
00:29:47,887 --> 00:29:49,186
By the trial,
  he'll be a blithering idiot.

684
00:29:49,188 --> 00:29:51,054
So let's put an informant
          in the cell.

685
00:29:51,056 --> 00:29:52,823
We'll never survive on appeal.

686
00:29:52,825 --> 00:29:54,024
Sixth Amendment
       right to counsel.

687
00:29:54,026 --> 00:29:56,026
The Supreme Court is clear--
if the informant

688
00:29:56,028 --> 00:29:58,896
doesn't elicit anything,
                it's admissible.

689
00:29:58,898 --> 00:30:00,430
Who's available to send in?

690
00:30:00,432 --> 00:30:03,100
An armed robber,
        a rent-gouging landlord.

691
00:30:03,102 --> 00:30:05,269
Both of those
      are ripe for deals.

692
00:30:05,271 --> 00:30:07,037
Go with the armed robber.

693
00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:09,273
Ends up in front of a jury

694
00:30:09,275 --> 00:30:11,375
get more sympathy
        than a landlord.

695
00:30:11,377 --> 00:30:13,076
I know what you want.

696
00:30:13,078 --> 00:30:15,112
I'll get it.
                    You will not
                       "get it."

697
00:30:15,114 --> 00:30:17,047
You will not ask Mr.
            Ryder any questions.

698
00:30:17,049 --> 00:30:19,049
You will not say
                 "good morning."

699
00:30:19,050 --> 00:30:21,050
And if he tries to confess,
I should break out of the cell?

700
00:30:21,053 --> 00:30:25,055
If you mess this up,
you'll be very sorry
you cut a deal with me.

701
00:30:25,057 --> 00:30:27,958
Ryder<i> mentions</i> his wife,
you avert your eyes,
say nothing.

702
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,328
You don't trust me,
           put in a robot with a
      tape recorder in his head.

703
00:30:31,330 --> 00:30:34,031
If I could, I would.

704
00:30:36,435 --> 00:30:38,368
<i>Cashmere fibers in the trunk</i>

705
00:30:38,370 --> 00:30:41,038
matched fibers from the sweater
        Mrs. Ryder was wearing,

706
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,940
beyond any doubt.

707
00:30:42,942 --> 00:30:45,409
Was the pattern
   of the fibers distinctive?

708
00:30:45,411 --> 00:30:48,178
Well, they were spread in a
      band about three feet long

709
00:30:48,180 --> 00:30:50,247
and pulled out at the base,

710
00:30:50,249 --> 00:30:53,951
as if they'd been wrapped
     around something heavy

711
00:30:53,953 --> 00:30:55,018
and dragged.

712
00:30:55,020 --> 00:30:56,420
Your witness.

713
00:31:02,094 --> 00:31:03,894
Mr. Medill, your report

714
00:31:03,896 --> 00:31:06,129
notes traces
                of naphthalene.

715
00:31:06,131 --> 00:31:07,097
What is that?

716
00:31:07,099 --> 00:31:09,366
Dry-cleaning fluid.

717
00:31:09,368 --> 00:31:13,937
This ticket from the Seaview
         Cleaners in Southampton

718
00:31:13,939 --> 00:31:16,106
itemizes clothes
            removed from storage

719
00:31:16,108 --> 00:31:18,942
two weeks before
                Mrs. Ryder died.

720
00:31:18,944 --> 00:31:21,111
Do any of those
                listed items

721
00:31:21,113 --> 00:31:24,147
match the type
              of fiber you found

722
00:31:24,149 --> 00:31:25,115
in the trunk?

723
00:31:27,519 --> 00:31:30,888
There's a pink cashmere sweater.

724
00:31:30,890 --> 00:31:33,957
This fiber pattern--
        could it have been made

725
00:31:33,959 --> 00:31:36,326
by a bundle of clothes
removed from storage

726
00:31:36,328 --> 00:31:37,995
and put in a trunk

727
00:31:37,997 --> 00:31:40,163
with a pink sweater
                  on the bottom?

728
00:31:40,165 --> 00:31:43,000
Dry cleaners wrap
       their clothes in plastic.

729
00:31:43,002 --> 00:31:44,434
And if the plastic ripped?

730
00:31:44,436 --> 00:31:47,204
I suppose so.

731
00:31:47,206 --> 00:31:50,073
You suppose what,
                     Mr. Medill?

732
00:31:50,075 --> 00:31:53,977
It could be consistent, yes.

733
00:31:53,979 --> 00:31:56,046
Thank you.

734
00:31:57,149 --> 00:31:59,183
And after Mrs. Ryder
left the hospital

735
00:31:59,184 --> 00:32:01,218
do you recall whether she was
wearing any jewelry or not?

736
00:32:01,220 --> 00:32:03,186
There was a pin on her coat.

737
00:32:03,188 --> 00:32:05,255
She wore it all the time.

738
00:32:07,393 --> 00:32:10,060
I'm showing you
people's exhibit

739
00:32:10,062 --> 00:32:11,194
Is this the pin?

740
00:32:11,196 --> 00:32:13,096
That looks like it, yes.

741
00:32:13,098 --> 00:32:15,432
Thank you.
No further questions.

742
00:32:19,138 --> 00:32:21,171
Miss Phillips...

743
00:32:21,173 --> 00:32:25,075
does this resemble
the pin Lois Ryder was wearing?

744
00:32:26,312 --> 00:32:28,111
It's similar.

745
00:32:30,082 --> 00:32:31,381
And this?

746
00:32:36,355 --> 00:32:39,089
Yes, it does.

747
00:32:39,091 --> 00:32:43,026
And the pin
in this photograph?

748
00:32:43,028 --> 00:32:44,194
Your Honor,
objection.

749
00:32:44,196 --> 00:32:45,529
Where did he get these?

750
00:32:45,531 --> 00:32:48,165
Gentlemen.

751
00:32:50,502 --> 00:32:53,270
Excellent question,
Counsellor.

752
00:32:53,271 --> 00:32:56,039
If you had those things produced
to create confusion...

753
00:32:56,041 --> 00:33:00,444
The Ryder family had four
nearly identical pins
made in 1931.

754
00:33:00,446 --> 00:33:02,412
The insurance agent
that identified

755
00:33:02,414 --> 00:33:04,348
the one Lois Ryder
was wearing

756
00:33:04,350 --> 00:33:06,350
made a mistake--
he'll testify to that.

757
00:33:06,352 --> 00:33:09,086
It's a very
             convenient mistake.
Well, easy one to make.

758
00:33:09,088 --> 00:33:11,254
How did that pin end up
       in Barbara Ryder's house?

759
00:33:11,256 --> 00:33:16,059
She took it to wear to her
daughter-in-law's funeral.

760
00:33:16,061 --> 00:33:17,561
JUDGE:
          Mr. Webber,

761
00:33:17,563 --> 00:33:19,496
if you don't back this up,
         you're looking

762
00:33:19,498 --> 00:33:23,166
at a character committee
         investigation.

763
00:33:23,168 --> 00:33:24,501
Objection overruled.

764
00:33:26,372 --> 00:33:29,473
Now, Miss Phillips,
I ask you again--

765
00:33:29,475 --> 00:33:31,441
are you absolutely certain

766
00:33:31,443 --> 00:33:36,113
which of these pins
Mrs. Ryder was wearing?

767
00:33:36,115 --> 00:33:39,116
I think
        it was the first one.

768
00:33:39,118 --> 00:33:40,317
Really?

769
00:34:00,339 --> 00:34:02,472
Which is the first one?

770
00:34:15,187 --> 00:34:16,787
Hell of a case
      of reasonable doubt.

771
00:34:16,789 --> 00:34:18,522
You still think
                Ryder's guilty?

772
00:34:18,524 --> 00:34:20,223
Some of that stuff is bunk--

773
00:34:20,225 --> 00:34:22,125
the cleaners,
    the ripped plastic bag.

774
00:34:22,127 --> 00:34:24,261
Yeah, well, the
              pins are not bunk,

775
00:34:24,263 --> 00:34:26,263
and the alibi witnesses
                   are not bunk,

776
00:34:26,265 --> 00:34:29,366
and this is probably
the lousiest staff work
I've ever seen.

777
00:34:29,368 --> 00:34:31,768
You want me to fire somebody?
Would that make you happy?

778
00:34:31,770 --> 00:34:34,738
The man is arrogant,
he's stupid-- he's
gonna get away with it.

779
00:34:34,740 --> 00:34:37,541
That fellow you planted in
his cell-- what's he getting?

780
00:34:37,543 --> 00:34:40,577
Ryder's teaching him
how to play bridge.

781
00:34:40,579 --> 00:34:42,712
How to play br...

782
00:34:47,619 --> 00:34:49,786
This is people's exhibit

783
00:34:49,788 --> 00:34:51,354
Do you recognize it?

784
00:34:51,356 --> 00:34:53,857
It's one of a set
of four pins.

785
00:34:53,859 --> 00:34:55,592
My father had it made.

786
00:34:55,594 --> 00:35:00,330
WEBBER:
What is the history
      of these four pins?

787
00:35:00,332 --> 00:35:02,666
BARBARA:
      My daughter has two.

788
00:35:02,668 --> 00:35:04,267
Lois had two.

789
00:35:04,269 --> 00:35:06,403
She was wearing one
         when she died.

790
00:35:06,405 --> 00:35:08,271
That one is missing.

791
00:35:08,273 --> 00:35:10,407
I borrowed this one
         from Jonathan.

792
00:35:10,409 --> 00:35:13,610
Why did you borrow
your dead daughter-in-law's pin?

793
00:35:16,782 --> 00:35:19,783
I wanted to wear it
       to Lois's funeral.

794
00:35:19,785 --> 00:35:23,120
I wanted to have
   something of hers near me.

795
00:35:23,122 --> 00:35:24,855
Thank you.

796
00:35:28,127 --> 00:35:32,162
Mrs. Ryder, where were you
when this photo was taken?

797
00:35:33,899 --> 00:35:36,299
At Lois's funeral.

798
00:35:36,301 --> 00:35:38,368
Would you show me
where the pin is?

799
00:35:38,370 --> 00:35:40,770
I can't.

800
00:35:40,772 --> 00:35:44,374
It was high on the left side
       under the collar.

801
00:35:44,376 --> 00:35:46,810
You can't see it.

802
00:35:46,811 --> 00:35:49,245
STONE:
  Isn't it true that your son
    gave you the pin to hide

803
00:35:49,248 --> 00:35:50,614
after the funeral
         so the police

804
00:35:50,616 --> 00:35:51,648
wouldn't find it in his house?

805
00:35:51,650 --> 00:35:54,251
No, that is not true.

806
00:35:54,253 --> 00:35:56,853
And isn't it true that<i> this</i>
   is the pin that Lois Ryder

807
00:35:56,855 --> 00:35:58,388
wore when he killed her?

808
00:35:58,390 --> 00:36:01,625
If my son had killed Lois,
           Mr. Stone,

809
00:36:01,627 --> 00:36:03,860
I would be leading the pack
          against him.

810
00:36:03,862 --> 00:36:07,330
Lois was a Ryder, too.

811
00:36:07,332 --> 00:36:08,865
Are we winning?

812
00:36:08,867 --> 00:36:11,101
Like we won Pearl Harbor.

813
00:36:11,102 --> 00:36:13,336
We have another rowboat
with a pee shooter
to add to the fleet.

814
00:36:13,338 --> 00:36:14,871
A club in Bridgehampton.

815
00:36:14,873 --> 00:36:16,406
Mrs. Ryder likes
the piano player.

816
00:36:16,408 --> 00:36:18,642
"The Girl From Ipanema."
She always requests

817
00:36:18,643 --> 00:36:20,877
Which would annoy him,
but she's a good tipper
after four drinks.

818
00:36:20,879 --> 00:36:23,480
He's pretty sure
               she was there the
            night of the murder.

819
00:36:23,482 --> 00:36:25,749
Pretty sure?
That's the<i> good</i> news--
he has no idea

820
00:36:25,751 --> 00:36:27,884
when she walked in--
could have been 10:00,

821
00:36:27,886 --> 00:36:29,819
when she swears
                 she was playing
              games with Johnny.

822
00:36:29,821 --> 00:36:32,322
Or it could've been 12:00,
when Johnny was on his way

823
00:36:32,324 --> 00:36:34,457
not to kill his wife.
               Great, we put him
                    on the stand

824
00:36:34,459 --> 00:36:36,293
as a rebuttal witness--
       if Webber forgets

825
00:36:36,295 --> 00:36:38,495
to cross-examine,
         we're all set.

826
00:36:38,496 --> 00:36:40,696
But if this plays out,
       we won't have to.

827
00:36:41,900 --> 00:36:44,334
Everything's going
his way, Adam--
we got to shake him up.

828
00:36:44,336 --> 00:36:47,370
By telling Webber you're
gonna indict mother Ryder
       for perjury and accessory

829
00:36:47,372 --> 00:36:49,806
based on the testimony
              of a piano player.

830
00:36:49,808 --> 00:36:52,409
I offer to reconsider
if he pleads to manslaughter.

831
00:36:52,411 --> 00:36:54,377
And this piano player
       does not remember

832
00:36:54,379 --> 00:36:56,446
when Mrs. Ryder
                got to the bar.

833
00:36:56,448 --> 00:36:58,248
She knows when she got there.

834
00:36:58,250 --> 00:37:01,451
If it<i> was</i> after midnight,
     her alibi story holds.

835
00:37:01,453 --> 00:37:04,421
That's the beauty of it--
 it only works if she's lying.

836
00:37:04,423 --> 00:37:07,257
All this to get Ryder excited.

837
00:37:07,259 --> 00:37:09,926
And he's not going
to like the picture

838
00:37:09,928 --> 00:37:12,996
of his mother in jail.

839
00:37:12,998 --> 00:37:16,266
Suppose I have a witness
        that puts her elsewhere?

840
00:37:16,268 --> 00:37:17,400
"Suppose"?

841
00:37:17,402 --> 00:37:18,935
Do you or don't you?

842
00:37:18,937 --> 00:37:21,271
Well, don't do the
             deal, and find out.

843
00:37:21,273 --> 00:37:23,440
Even at her age,
                she'll do time.

844
00:37:23,442 --> 00:37:25,275
You shouldn't be dealing.

845
00:37:25,277 --> 00:37:26,810
You should be apologizing.

846
00:37:26,812 --> 00:37:31,381
I'll consider manslaughter one
            for him.

847
00:37:31,383 --> 00:37:34,818
Otherwise, it's accessory
      and perjury for her.

848
00:37:34,820 --> 00:37:37,487
They could be
    in neighboring prisons

849
00:37:37,489 --> 00:37:39,489
with a joint card room.

850
00:37:39,491 --> 00:37:43,293
Don't wait by the phone.

851
00:37:46,465 --> 00:37:48,999
Ryder won't crack. 34 Hours.

852
00:37:49,001 --> 00:37:51,868
So, Webber's been in
            to see Ryder twice.

853
00:37:51,870 --> 00:37:54,437
I know you didn't like it.

854
00:37:54,439 --> 00:37:57,941
If he takes the deal,
                    I'd say yes.

855
00:37:57,943 --> 00:37:59,809
If he takes the deal

856
00:37:59,811 --> 00:38:02,279
I'll start buying
lottery tickets.

857
00:38:02,281 --> 00:38:04,014
I got to go home.

858
00:38:04,983 --> 00:38:06,983
Mr. Stone.
                           Yeah?

859
00:38:06,985 --> 00:38:10,387
You've got a call from Rikers.
It's Morgan.

860
00:38:10,389 --> 00:38:11,454
What did you guys do?

861
00:38:11,456 --> 00:38:13,490
Put angel dust
                in his caviar?

862
00:38:13,492 --> 00:38:14,991
What did he say?

863
00:38:14,993 --> 00:38:16,960
First, nothing.
           A relief.

864
00:38:16,962 --> 00:38:20,530
I had enough bulletins
     from the society page.

865
00:38:20,532 --> 00:38:23,500
Then he asks me the longest term
       I'd done upstate.

866
00:38:23,502 --> 00:38:25,402
I said a nickel.

867
00:38:25,404 --> 00:38:27,937
He says he might do eight to 25.

868
00:38:27,939 --> 00:38:29,806
You didn't ask
                  any questions?

869
00:38:29,808 --> 00:38:31,841
I put a magazine
in my mouth.

870
00:38:31,843 --> 00:38:34,411
He gets weepy,
          says mother was right,

871
00:38:34,413 --> 00:38:35,512
he's a total foul-up.

872
00:38:35,514 --> 00:38:36,980
Couldn't kill his own wife

873
00:38:36,982 --> 00:38:39,082
without getting mother
        sent to jail.

874
00:38:39,084 --> 00:38:40,784
Not bad, huh?

875
00:38:40,786 --> 00:38:42,352
Then he's crying

876
00:38:42,354 --> 00:38:44,054
his brains out.

877
00:38:44,056 --> 00:38:46,890
Starts talking about the bat--
the bat and Alison.

878
00:38:46,892 --> 00:38:47,891
Who's Alison?

879
00:38:47,893 --> 00:38:48,992
His little girl.

880
00:38:48,994 --> 00:38:52,495
Oh. Says maybe
       it's for the best.

881
00:38:52,497 --> 00:38:54,931
How could he face her anyway?

882
00:38:54,933 --> 00:38:56,499
Then he shuts up.

883
00:38:56,501 --> 00:39:00,003
I take the magazine
out of my mouth and call you.

884
00:39:00,005 --> 00:39:03,373
I'm going to set up a
          hearing with the judge
              on Monday morning.

885
00:39:03,375 --> 00:39:05,375
You tell him exactly
               what you told me.

886
00:39:06,545 --> 00:39:09,646
I always tell the truth.

887
00:39:15,454 --> 00:39:17,454
ROBINETTE:
         It's not good.

888
00:39:17,456 --> 00:39:19,356
Oh, no, please.

889
00:39:19,358 --> 00:39:21,358
Don't tell me Morgan died.

890
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:22,992
Bad case of memory loss.

891
00:39:22,994 --> 00:39:24,994
He says he made it all up.

892
00:39:24,996 --> 00:39:26,896
There was no confession.

893
00:39:26,898 --> 00:39:29,999
Barbara Ryder got to him.

894
00:39:30,001 --> 00:39:31,835
Morgan's wife--

895
00:39:31,837 --> 00:39:34,137
emergency visit
            to Rikers yesterday.

896
00:39:34,139 --> 00:39:36,940
You talk to her?

897
00:39:36,942 --> 00:39:38,875
She's done time herself.

898
00:39:38,877 --> 00:39:40,410
She's got a lawyer.

899
00:39:40,412 --> 00:39:42,445
I wonder how much
            they paid him

900
00:39:42,447 --> 00:39:44,447
to do another two years.

901
00:39:44,449 --> 00:39:46,416
Mistrial?

902
00:39:48,153 --> 00:39:50,453
He gave us Ryder's daughter.

903
00:39:50,455 --> 00:39:52,489
<i>He tampered with a witness!</i>

904
00:39:52,491 --> 00:39:55,692
Put away your slingshot, Stone.
       I never talked to Morgan.

905
00:39:55,694 --> 00:39:58,428
Who visited his wife?
Larry, if you tampered
with a witness

906
00:39:58,430 --> 00:40:01,398
I will personally appear
at your disbarment hearing.

907
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,566
Judge, a threat
        in these circumstances?

908
00:40:03,568 --> 00:40:05,468
Come on,
get off of it.

909
00:40:05,470 --> 00:40:07,003
We're off the record.

910
00:40:07,005 --> 00:40:08,405
But I must tell you, Ben,

911
00:40:08,407 --> 00:40:10,490
I don't like jailhouse
          informants.

912
00:40:10,491 --> 00:40:12,574
They always<i> say</i>
  they keep their mouths shut.

913
00:40:12,577 --> 00:40:14,577
I wouldn't have admitted it
            anyway.

914
00:40:14,579 --> 00:40:17,180
In that case, I'd like
an order to examine
Ryder's daughter, Alison,

915
00:40:17,182 --> 00:40:19,082
as a potential witness.

916
00:40:19,084 --> 00:40:21,151
An eleven-year-old
              to testify against
her father?

917
00:40:21,153 --> 00:40:24,454
It's indecent-- not to mention
    fruit of the poisonous tree.

918
00:40:24,456 --> 00:40:27,157
If the so-called confession
              isn't admissible,

919
00:40:27,159 --> 00:40:29,592
neither is anything
            stemming from it.

920
00:40:29,594 --> 00:40:31,594
Come again, Counselor?
 He learned about the daughter

921
00:40:31,596 --> 00:40:33,463
from a confession
     you say doesn't exist.

922
00:40:33,465 --> 00:40:35,465
According to you,
  there is no poisonous tree.

923
00:40:35,467 --> 00:40:38,468
He had an informant
                in the cell.

924
00:40:38,470 --> 00:40:40,136
<i>U.S. v. Ceccolini.</i>

925
00:40:40,138 --> 00:40:42,672
Supreme Court
               allowed a witness

926
00:40:42,674 --> 00:40:45,475
discovered by an
                 illegal search.

927
00:40:45,477 --> 00:40:47,010
They certainly showed
       greater reluctance

928
00:40:47,012 --> 00:40:49,512
to suppress a live witness
    than physical evidence.

929
00:40:49,514 --> 00:40:54,117
All right, gentlemen,
this court is issuing an order.

930
00:40:54,119 --> 00:40:56,619
The people will get
   a psychiatric examination

931
00:40:56,621 --> 00:40:58,488
of Mr. Ryder's daughter.

932
00:40:58,490 --> 00:41:00,657
Thank you, Your Honor.

933
00:41:00,659 --> 00:41:03,092
We were going to Barbados.

934
00:41:03,094 --> 00:41:06,196
after Mommy died.
        It was after...

935
00:41:06,198 --> 00:41:11,201
he wanted his bat.
      Craigie, my brother,

936
00:41:11,203 --> 00:41:14,237
It wasn't in the toolroom.

937
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,506
Craigie was crying.
Daddy...

938
00:41:16,508 --> 00:41:18,775
we lost it at the beach,
           Daddy said

939
00:41:18,777 --> 00:41:20,610
but I didn't think so.

940
00:41:20,612 --> 00:41:26,649
I saw it after the summer.
  Daddy said we did, but I...

941
00:41:26,651 --> 00:41:30,520
I think I did.

942
00:41:30,522 --> 00:41:32,188
When Mommy left that day
            OLIVET:

943
00:41:32,190 --> 00:41:34,624
she was going to the hospital
          and told you

944
00:41:34,626 --> 00:41:37,660
do you remember
    what pin she was wearing?

945
00:41:37,662 --> 00:41:40,530
It was mine... when I grew up.
            ALISON:

946
00:41:40,532 --> 00:41:43,967
the special one.
        Mommy always wore

947
00:41:43,969 --> 00:41:47,237
How was it special?
            OLIVET:

948
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,205
I don't know.

949
00:41:49,207 --> 00:41:52,075
She said it was a secret.

950
00:41:52,077 --> 00:41:55,011
She said she'd tell me someday.

951
00:41:57,516 --> 00:42:01,217
I think she knows
her father killed her mother.

952
00:42:01,219 --> 00:42:03,219
She can't deal with it.

953
00:42:03,221 --> 00:42:05,255
She's useless
                as a witness.

954
00:42:05,257 --> 00:42:07,991
She can talk about the bat.

955
00:42:07,993 --> 00:42:10,560
She won't hold up
on the stand.

956
00:42:10,562 --> 00:42:12,262
SCHIFF:
                The jury
                will love you.

957
00:42:12,264 --> 00:42:15,198
She said there was a secret.

958
00:42:16,735 --> 00:42:21,271
Who did Lois Ryder
      tell her secrets to?

959
00:42:21,273 --> 00:42:22,805
They bought a witness.

960
00:42:22,807 --> 00:42:24,541
They committed perjury.

961
00:42:24,543 --> 00:42:26,676
I've been following the trial.

962
00:42:26,678 --> 00:42:28,811
Do you know anything

963
00:42:28,813 --> 00:42:31,314
about the jewelry
she was wearing?

964
00:42:32,717 --> 00:42:35,251
You know,
your lawyer was wrong.

965
00:42:35,253 --> 00:42:37,320
I'll cite you
for contempt.

966
00:42:37,322 --> 00:42:40,189
I'll send you to jail.

967
00:42:40,191 --> 00:42:43,326
I'm not sure
    that's the worst thing

968
00:42:43,328 --> 00:42:45,728
that could happen to me.

969
00:42:45,730 --> 00:42:49,132
Tell that to me
after you see Jonathan Ryder

970
00:42:49,134 --> 00:42:50,266
at the next hospital
fund-raiser.

971
00:42:50,268 --> 00:42:52,335
(<i> big sigh</i> )

972
00:42:57,342 --> 00:43:00,343
I worked occasionally
       on Sunday nights.

973
00:43:00,345 --> 00:43:03,146
My wife accepted that.
In the course
of your affair,

974
00:43:03,148 --> 00:43:05,248
did you ever have
any indication

975
00:43:05,250 --> 00:43:08,284
that Mr. Ryder knew
of his wife's infidelity?

976
00:43:08,286 --> 00:43:10,620
Lois would...
        uh, Mrs. Ryder...

977
00:43:10,622 --> 00:43:12,755
she would call her husband.

978
00:43:12,757 --> 00:43:14,857
She would give him excuses.

979
00:43:14,859 --> 00:43:16,693
They were ridiculous.

980
00:43:16,695 --> 00:43:18,328
Two times in a row

981
00:43:18,330 --> 00:43:21,764
she told him she was going
            to the Monet exhibit

982
00:43:21,766 --> 00:43:23,199
at the Met.

983
00:43:23,201 --> 00:43:25,768
The Monet exhibit
             was already closed.

984
00:43:25,770 --> 00:43:28,771
Did you ever meet
Jonathan Ryder?

985
00:43:28,773 --> 00:43:32,342
I saw him at hospital
    fund-raising events.

986
00:43:32,344 --> 00:43:34,310
Did he ever indicate

987
00:43:34,312 --> 00:43:36,913
that he knew where you lived?

988
00:43:36,915 --> 00:43:40,149
FRIEDMAN:
        Once. He told me
      he didn't understand

989
00:43:40,151 --> 00:43:42,719
why a doctor would live
on the west side.

990
00:43:42,721 --> 00:43:46,289
He said, "Riverside Drive...

991
00:43:46,291 --> 00:43:50,326
not very safe over there."

992
00:43:50,328 --> 00:43:53,262
STONE:
Now, the last time
you saw Mrs. Ryder

993
00:43:53,264 --> 00:43:57,800
do you recall
what jewelry she was wearing?

994
00:43:59,204 --> 00:44:01,204
Her wedding ring,

995
00:44:01,206 --> 00:44:03,206
a necklace,

996
00:44:03,208 --> 00:44:05,408
a bracelet, and a pin.

997
00:44:14,352 --> 00:44:17,687
Dr. Friedman,
here are three pins.

998
00:44:17,689 --> 00:44:19,322
Do you recognize

999
00:44:19,324 --> 00:44:21,391
any of them?

1000
00:44:34,372 --> 00:44:37,206
That's the one
that Lois was wearing.

1001
00:44:37,208 --> 00:44:39,375
STONE:
Let the record indicate

1002
00:44:39,377 --> 00:44:43,379
that he identified
people's exhibit

1003
00:44:43,381 --> 00:44:45,248
Let the record so indicate.

1004
00:44:45,250 --> 00:44:47,784
Why did you pick that one?

1005
00:44:47,786 --> 00:44:50,820
Mr. Ryder's grandfather
        had four of them made.

1006
00:44:50,822 --> 00:44:53,823
This one was for his daughter,
              Jonathan's mother.

1007
00:44:53,825 --> 00:44:55,224
She told Jonathan

1008
00:44:55,226 --> 00:44:57,326
it would be
                for his wife...

1009
00:44:57,328 --> 00:45:01,998
before... he married Lois.

1010
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,200
But how did you identify it?

1011
00:45:08,373 --> 00:45:13,309
The initial "B" is etched
    into one of the leaves.

1012
00:45:15,980 --> 00:45:20,416
When Lois got married,
       she asked Jonathan

1013
00:45:20,418 --> 00:45:23,419
to have an "L"
    etched in opposite it--

1014
00:45:23,421 --> 00:45:26,756
"L" for Lois.

1015
00:45:26,758 --> 00:45:28,424
She waited two years.

1016
00:45:30,228 --> 00:45:33,229
She finally had it done herself.

1017
00:45:33,231 --> 00:45:36,232
Her mother-in-law
      never knew about it.

1018
00:45:38,403 --> 00:45:40,770
Lois always...

1019
00:45:44,242 --> 00:45:46,876
Lois always wanted to add an "A"

1020
00:45:46,878 --> 00:45:49,946
for when her daughter
         would wear it.

1021
00:45:54,853 --> 00:45:56,052
STONE:
Thank you.

1022
00:45:56,054 --> 00:45:57,520
No further questions.

1023
00:45:59,958 --> 00:46:02,391
On the sole count
       of the indictment,

1024
00:46:02,393 --> 00:46:04,327
the charge of murder

1025
00:46:04,329 --> 00:46:06,929
in the second degree,
how does the jury find?

1026
00:46:10,268 --> 00:46:12,769
We find the defendant guilty.

1027
00:46:12,771 --> 00:46:15,304
(<i> cheering and applause</i> )

1028
00:46:20,812 --> 00:46:22,879
Had a call from a lawyer

1029
00:46:22,881 --> 00:46:25,348
representing
            Dr. Friedman's wife.

1030
00:46:25,350 --> 00:46:27,083
She filed for divorce.

1031
00:46:27,085 --> 00:46:30,486
Wants copies of anything
her husband said to us.

1032
00:46:30,488 --> 00:46:32,054
Another generation

1033
00:46:32,056 --> 00:46:34,323
of Ryders.

1034
00:46:40,265 --> 00:46:42,331
God help them.
