I love her so much, Chris, I can't even think about losing her.

Whatever it is, we'll blow over. The best marriage in America is not

finished.

How could you do a thing like that? How could you go to Christine with something

like that? I don't understand that, Hoff. Mary Beth, will you talk to me?

Talk? Yes. You want to talk about how we'd feel in case maybe I have breast

cancer? Okay.

In case maybe I have breast cancer, you go first.

Even if it is cancer, no one said you are going to die. Yeah, maybe I'll get

lucky. Huh, Hoff?

Maybe they just cut me in pieces and pumped me full of chemicals.

Mary Beth is a cancer specialist, and I think you should see him now.

Harvey, I'm scared of dying.

Go back to sleep babe.

I'm just getting a little bicarb.

Chris?

I didn't wake you, did I?

It's Harvey. Harvey Lacey.

I'm really sorry to bother you this time of night.

You don't have a date or anything, do you?

I need to talk to you, Chris.

No, no, not now.

Can I meet you tomorrow for lunch?

Or how about after work?

It's very important.

Yeah?

Okay.

Yeah, I'll find it.

Thanks a lot, Chris.

Look, I don't want Mary Beth to know about this, okay?

Please, Chris, this is just between the two of us.

Okay?

Thanks.

I'll see you tomorrow, then.

Six hours in court.

I'm telling you, the man should be removed from the bench.

No probable cause?

I've been a cop 14 years. I know probable cause, believe me.

Yeah.

Rupert, are you all right?

I'm fine. Why?

I'm not even weird lately.

Weird? What does that mean?

Quiet.

You're supposed to be quiet in court.

You don't speculate, you don't accumulate. What can I do for you, sir?

$10. Nice action. Thank you very much. You know, we're down to the home stretch

here, kiddies.

You changed the odds again.

You got Petrie to give you money to pass the sergeant exam, and you got me at 5

to 1 again.

Well, you're calling the way I seem.

Your eyes need checked.

If I'm not the heavy favorite, I don't know who is. Only what yourself is,

Becky. And if people don't start picking up on your action, those odds are gonna

get even longer.

Thank you. What can I do for you, sir? Five on Lacey, five on Rabinowitz,

please. You got it. And?

20 on his Becky. That ought to hold the line for now.

Section 12-783 of the patrol guide strictly prohibits gambling on

department property, Coleman. Yes, sir.

Put me down for 10 on Cagney and 5 on Blomquist. Yes, sir.

Ladies. Lieutenant.

Ladies, care to make a bet? The window is now open for the sergeant stakes.

No, thanks. I don't feel very lucky today.

What are the odds?

Completely ridiculous.

He's got me at 5 to 1.

Oh.

When he gets a tender one, let me know.

Excuse me.

It's after 5 o'clock. I thought you left 20 minutes ago.

I've got things I want to finish here.

I'll let it wait till morning. That's what I'm going to do.

I won't take long.

I thought I was the workaholic around here.

Get caught up.

Lacey, 14th.

Yes, I remember, ma'am.

Please, tell me your name and address.

And your son's name?

How old is Kevin, Mrs. Tagan?

And he was due home when?

What, did you check with the neighbors?

What about his friends, ma'am?

All right.

All right, we're gonna need to come over there.

Uh, half hour tops.

All right, ma'am.

Half hour?

Eight-year-old.

Never came home from school.

Mother sounds very upset. She kept our card from some community action meeting.

Well, let the other shift take it. We're supposed to be of duty here. I know

those guys. They're gonna put her off till tomorrow.

You're probably right.

I'll go.

You don't have to go, Christine.

Oh, hey, I gotta stay uptown anyway.

Do you think I like worrying about you every time I go to work? Do you feel

like a big man scaring me half to death?

I have a good mind just to wear you out.

Sounds like we wasted a trip.

I hope so.

Who is it?

Detective Lacey, Mrs. Taggart.

It's Detective Kage.

I should have called you back. I'm sorry.

He walked in here about ten minutes ago.

I'm really sorry you took up your time coming over here.

Kevin knows better than to act like that.

I'm sure he does, ma'am.

I've told him till I'm out of breath that he's supposed to come home right

after school and stay here.

Now, you apologize to these ladies for making them come out of their way.

Did you hear me?

Yes, ma'am.

I'm sorry.

Hey, don't mention it.

I guess I shouldn't have panicked, but when I got home and nobody had seen him

for hours, I just didn't know what else to do.

You work, Mrs. Taggart?

I'm a typist for a company downtown.

Work late a lot?

Take overtime whenever I can get it. So you leave your son alone after school?

He used to go to a daycare center, and then they cut the funds and closed it

down. What about Kevin's father?

You find him and ask him about that.

Mrs. Taggart, if he can't get a babysitter, maybe a neighbor could look

after him. Look, lady, they have their own problems. Now, Kevin is plenty old

enough to stay here by himself.

worked out this time.

Kevin, don't you go scaring your mother anymore.

You hear me?

Ma'am?

So you think she really belted him?

I hit Harv Jr. once when he broke the rules.

Parents smack kids, you know, it happens.

This is a great place to leave an eight-year-old by himself.

What kind of choices does she have?

Hey.

Harv has got some kind of a business dinner tonight. A contractor or

something. The boy's out with Brenda. You want to go eat?

You and me?

Yeah. I could maybe spring for a bottle of wine.

I'd love to.

But I've got this date.

Oh.

Somebody new.

No. It's not a date date. It's a blind date.

I thought you always hate blind dates. I do.

Remember Mr. Siegel, my plumber?

Well, it's his nephew, and he's been trying to fix us up over about six

months now.

He's a corporate lawyer.

As I recall, you also swore off lawyers.

I did.

But a good plumber's hard to find.

Yeah, you got that right.

Hi. Hi. Sorry I'm late.

It's okay. I'm glad you made the time to come. You can't believe it. Tonight, of

all nights, Mary Beth wanted to have dinner.

You didn't tell her you were meeting me here. Oh, no, no, no. I made up a great

story.

Well, it was an okay story, but I think she bought it.

It looks like it'll be well before they seat us, huh? Yeah.

You want a drink?

Oh, I'd love one. Six hours in court.

Oh,

thank you.

Scotch on the rocks, please.

I got two, bartender.

Hey, take it easy. I thought you told me New Year's you had a two-beer limit.

Yeah.

Now, the best memories of the worst blind date I've ever had are those of

Howie Newtonberger.

Howie Newtonberger? Yes.

I was in college. You'll like him, my roommate says. He's athletic.

Was he a football player?

Howie? Don't be ridiculous. He was captain of the golf team.

Six foot six, 120 pounds, soaking wet, which he was a lot since he sweats so

much.

Anyway, he said four words to me.

Hello. Two, please. Good night.

And then when he kissed me, he split my lip open with his braces, and I had to

have three stitches.

Poor guy.

Whatever happened to him?

Howie? Poor Howie?

Poor Howie became an oral surgeon, lives in a mansion in Beverly Hills.

He's married to Miss Nebraska.

I doubt they kiss much.

Anyway,

Harvey, enough about me. Let's talk about you.

You call me up in the middle of the night. You want to have a secret

meeting. You tell me not to tell Marybeth.

And I sit here boring you for a half hour with stories of having Nudenberger.

You know, I proposed to Marybeth in a restaurant.

Not like this, though.

Second time before she said yes.

She ever tell you that?

Yeah. Yeah. Well, when she said she'd marry me, I must have jumped five feet

in the air, knocked over a waiter, spilled a whole plate of ravioli down

her suit.

I love her so much, Chris, I can't even think about losing her.

Harvey, what are you talking about?

You and Mary Beth have the best marriage in America.

I know that to be a personal fact.

Whatever it is will blow over. The best marriage in America is not finished.

It's not us. It's her.

Mary Beth. She hasn't been herself lately.

Thought she was worried about the sergeant's exam or some case you two

were on.

Then we were in bed ten days ago, and I found what I thought was a lump in her

breast.

I asked her about it. She said it was nothing. She didn't need to see a

doctor. It was cyst or something.

Normal for that time of month.

Maybe it is. So how come I never noticed it before?

And how come she got out of bed, locked herself in the bathroom?

She won't talk to me. She puts me off.

Chris, I am scared it is something serious, and Mary Beth won't admit it.

I came to you because I don't know what to do.

We're a day and a half behind because of yesterday.

It's not yet warm, and you dragged me up here to have lunch. What is going on? I

had a craving for fresh air.

Don't you ever feel that way? It's great. Oh, look, this is nice. Now that

I've got three million things to do, Christine, I've got no time for picnics.

Hey, Mary Beth, I'm buying, okay?

So don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

Now, you want a turkey on rye, but they were out of it, so I got you a

pumpernickel. Fine.

Why am I eating it here?

Because the park was the most private place I could think of.

I went by the women's center today on my way in.

And I got you these.

Breast cancer?

Yeah.

Harvey didn't have a business dinner last night, Marybeth. He had dinner with

me.

And he told me about the lump he found in your breast.

He told you about that, huh?

He had no right to do that.

Now, don't be angry with him. Come on. The man is worried sick about you.

Because Harv's been harping on me about this. I told him I'd go see a doctor.

Well, you did. Yeah.

Well, what did he say?

Who?

The doctor.

You know how hard it is to get a doctor to see you these days? Plus, they charge

an arm and a leg. So you didn't make an appointment.

There's nothing wrong, Chris, okay? There's nothing the matter with me.

You know, I was going over the Valdez case last night. I think we should open

that one up again.

I can recommend a doctor to you that my aunt saw when she had a similar problem.

Thank you.

Valdez is lying.

I'm telling you, Christine, we should go back and talk to that brother.

Yeah, that's pretty good

For God's sake, Harv, can't you do a couple things around here when you know

I'm going to be late?

Dinner is going to be an hour at least. You got that?

Playing video games. What are you so mad about?

You have to ask?

How could you do a thing like that? How could you go to Christine with something

like that?

I don't understand that, Harv. I didn't know what else to do.

No, I told you it's normal. I told you don't worry. Mary Beth. No, no, it's my

private business.

You had no right to do that.

Michael wants to know if you're going to finish the game.

Later.

Go into your room, finish your homework, both of you.

I already did mine. Double check it!

Close the door.

Babe, please, let's sit down and talk about this.

No.

I said this to Christine. I'm going to say it to you.

There's nothing to talk about because there's nothing wrong.

So you and her can go run somebody else's life and leave mine alone.

Well? What?

Did you see the doctor?

I didn't have time for a scene.

Michael's air infection's acting up again.

It's not about work. I don't want to hear about it, all right?

License.

I will be right there.

Eleanor Taggart is here to see us.

Kevin didn't come home.

When, last night?

I didn't want to call you because of the last time. I was so sure he'd show up,

but this morning I just didn't know what else to do. Mrs. Taggart, we're going to

do what we can to find your son.

Kevin's never done nothing like this before. You know he's only eight years

old. And I just keep getting this picture of somebody picking him up off

the street. You know you hear about things like that on television.

Please, ma'am, I understand.

I got kids myself, okay? So you try and calm down, because we need your help. We

need some information, all right? Some questions.

Where was he last seen and when?

Yesterday afternoon after school.

That third grade class hasn't had a regular teacher in months.

Mrs. Lowry's husband was transferred.

She moved, and we've had difficulty keeping a regular teacher.

Well, sir, what about Kevin's classmates?

Any particular kids he hangs out with?

Detective, this is a very overcrowded school.

Now, I'm not sure I could pick out Kevin Taggart from a crowd.

Much less tell you who his friends are.

What, you got a headache? No, sinus.

Oh, my husband gets that sometimes.

That can be very painful.

Mr. Berwyn, we'd like to look in Kevin's locker.

I mean, maybe there's something there to tell us where he is. I'd have to open

his locker for you, and I can't do that without a search warrant.

Come on, it would take us a day to get one. I'm sorry, but the school system

just went through a lawsuit about this. We have very specific guidelines.

Now, I can call and ask for an exception, but it's not going to do you

any good.

Believe me, it's what happened the last time.

Right. So we get a search warrant.

Sir, try sleeping with a vaporizer.

My husband swears by that.

We should have a warrant by tomorrow noon.

And we're having flyers made up with that picture you gave us of Kevin.

Uniformed officers are going to hand that out. Plus we also put his name and

description in the national computer file.

Thanks. I walked all over the neighborhood yesterday.

I walked for blocks.

I know. It's a hopeless feeling, ma'am. Why would he go and do something like

this to me?

You know I missed two days out of work already?

And I talked to my supervisor, and she tells me that I might not have a job to

come back to. Mrs. Taggart, did you buy this for your son?

It doesn't belong to Kevin.

He doesn't have anything like that. Well, I found it stashed way under his

bed. Where do you think he got the money to pay for it? So what are you trying to

say? He stole it?

My son doesn't steal.

Nobody says he didn't. Ma'am, would you excuse us?

We'll have to go apply for that warrant when the Tucker's office closes 5 o

'clock. Come on, Christine.

We'll be in touch.

You heard her.

She's more worried about her job.

She's not thinking straight. Her kid's been missing 23 hours. Maybe he wouldn't

have if she'd taken better care of him. Easy to say.

on Mary Beth.

We know she hit him at least once.

She leaves him alone for hours every day. If I tell you if he didn't boost

that radio, I'll eat it. So what are you saying? He ran away?

If that's true, then how come he didn't take his brand new radio?

Now, I was a latchkey kid myself before they called it that.

After my father took off, my mother had to go to work. I was by myself every day

after school from I was eight.

I didn't turn into a thief, and I didn't run away from home. This is completely

different, Mary Beth. Why?

Because I'm white.

No. And you know I didn't mean that.

Look, why don't we just drop it, okay? I want to... I want to give you something

here.

It's the name and telephone number of a doctor. The one I told you about. Mary

Beth is a cancer specialist, and I think you should see him now.

Listen to me. I know you're frightened. I'll go with you if you want me to.

Mary Beth, will you talk to me?

Talk? Yes. You want to talk about how we'd feel in case maybe I have breast

cancer? Okay.

In case maybe I have breast cancer, you go first.

Thanks for the check, Christine.

It's faster if only one of us goes apply for the warrant, and so I will go

downtown and you find out whether or not the flyers are ready.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, thanks anyway, Benny. I just thought I'd check.

Listen, when the flyers hit the streets, maybe you can put one up on your

newsstand for us.

Huh?

Oh, yeah, yeah, right, right. Next to the girly magazines is good, Benny.

You're right. Everybody will notice it there.

Yeah, yeah. I've got to go. Bye.

You know, I know a guy who once flunked the exam four times.

Did he ever make sergeant?

Oh, yeah, on the fifth try.

Listen to this.

The department notified him of his promotion a year later.

Two days after he died.

He beat that?

I bet your Petrie heard that story.

Look at him.

The sergeant's exam isn't till the 22nd.

He's been cramming like this for months.

That's why the smart money's on Petrie.

What are you talking about? He's gonna burn out. You know the first thing he

said to me this morning?

No.

What is the number of uniformed officers usually assigned to the presidential

motorcade? You could ask that, you know.

Hey, they can ask anything. It's 100 questions. But it can't be that hard.

It's the second part, the videotaping that's gonna separate the men from the

girls. Right, Cagney?

Yeah, right.

Good morning.

Uh, the rest of these went out with the morning shift.

They're gonna distribute them and then canvass the ten-block radius around the

school. Thank you, Sergeant.

Oh, also, they hooked you up a hotline here this morning. Good.

If that warrant is ready, then we can get into Kevin's locker by 11.

Good morning, Mary Beth.

Morning.

Detective Lacey, 14th Squad.

Yeah, I'm calling to check about a search warrant I applied for yesterday.

Case number 182551.

Yeah, I'll hold.

Now, believe me, Mr. Berwyn, I appreciate your problem here, but we're

all civil servants, right? We're just working for the city. My prime concern,

madam, are for these children.

Well, we're concerned, too, sir, about this one kid.

By the way, did you ever try that vaporizer? No, I didn't.

have a chance to i told you my husband swears by it right uh-huh yeah you know

you're aware you have to sign for whatever contents you remove right you

know there's two types of those vaporizers you got the wet steam and dry

steam yeah for different times of the year wet steam is better in the winter

geez he's neat for an eight-year-old huh he's rich too

there's over 200 here mr berwin You know where the kids hang out after

school?

Hey,

so things been going pretty bad, huh, Mama? You gotta come to this joint to

get a date?

Hey, you come with me and I show you a real good time.

I bet you're broad like you could use it.

Probably right.

So, you know this kid? His name's Kevin Taggart.

What's it worth to you, baby?

You shut your face, you.

That's a kid here. He could be hurt.

Hey, he could be dead. So what?

Hey, listen, whoever you are, I'm not real patient, all right? And you're not

a lot of help.

What for? You never help me.

Maybe you could tell me who he hangs with.

You run this place?

Yeah. And what do you want to do, put me out of business? I don't need cops

raiding through here.

I don't think we caught your name.

Corelli. This kid is missing.

Don't know him.

You sure?

I only work here, lady. I'm no social worker.

Yeah. You're a nice, simple, honest guy, right?

You can suck his money out of kids below the poverty line for a living.

It's called free enterprise, lady, because it's a free country.

And it has laws.

And it has city ordinances.

And you better be on the right side of every single one of them from now, Mr.

Corelli, or you're in deep trouble.

All right.

Our name and phone number's on this sheet.

Why don't you stick it somewhere so people can see it?

So that's it?

That's all you're going to do to try to find him?

Believe me, Mrs. Taggart, if we could be doing anything else, we'd be doing it.

But it's been almost three days.

I guess you don't send cops out there to look for a low-income child.

Ma'am, even if we had the personnel, we don't know where else to look for him.

He could be anywheres. Look, if he was rich and white, I'd tell you where he'd

be. He'd be home, because you'd move heaven and earth to try to find him.

Hey, lady, I'm getting real tired of your attitude. We're doing everything we

can. We got nothing to go on.

Nobody knows where your son goes or what he does after school.

So what are you trying to say to me? You think I neglect him?

I just don't understand how you can leave a child. You're damn right you

don't understand.

You make a nice salary paid you by the city. You can afford a babysitter or

private daycare.

I make 80 cents above minimum wage. I take home less than $130 a week. And I

got a choice, right? Big choice.

I can either pay for daycare or pay my rent.

Mrs. Tiger, there's city agencies that... Uh-huh.

Charity. Welfare. The ADC and food stamps is the same as I make for 40

hours.

I want Kevin to grow up on handouts. So I went out and I got myself trained and

I got a job so he could see somebody standing on their own two feet.

And what did it get me?

People going around here telling me I'm a bad mother because I don't want to

stay home on welfare?

Well, you ask yourself, lady, what would you do if you were me?

Nice job.

Perfect end to a perfect day.

So what'd you expect?

She's got a hell of a mind trying to do it all by herself. Come on, everyone's

got problems. This kid that matters here.

I didn't know how to fill out some of those questions.

That's all right.

Have a seat. Doctor will be with you shortly.

Thank you.

Mrs. Lacey?

It's my business.

Damn it, it isn't. What is so hard, Mary Beth? You talk to the doctor, you get it

over with.

Yeah? Well, you don't have to go there.

You don't have to go there and sit there and look at your future in some little

brochures with a special holder about cancer and dying. No one said dying.

Even if it is cancer, no one said you are going to die. Yeah, maybe I'll get

lucky. Oh, Harv, maybe they'll just cut me in pieces and pump me full of

chemicals. And you live, and you get better. That is all that is important.

No, I don't want it, Harv.

I don't want tubes and machines.

I don't want the boys remembering me sick like that.

You fall apart when I get the flu.

What the hell? You're going to deal with cancer?

I'll deal with it.

Call in the doctor.

I'm calling Christine and we're getting you there first thing in the morning.

Mary Beth, no discussion. This isn't just you. We are in this together.

Harvey.

I'm scared of dying.

I... Would you hold on to me for a minute and then make the phone call?

It's Becky, 14th.

No, Mrs. Dineen, we haven't heard from you. Petrie, 14th Precinct.

Yeah, hang on one second. I can get that information for you.

Peggy, 14th.

Yes, Mr. Crowley. Listen, I've been thinking.

Trouble with the cops is something I don't need in my kind of business.

I take it your memory got better.

Yeah, right.

Flip got it.

This guy comes in here when the kids are here sometimes after school, but he

ain't no kid. He's maybe 17 or 18.

I thought it was kind of funny him hanging around with them.

You think Kevin Taggart with him?

Yeah, but this guy is Willie Smoke.

Now, do me a favor.

Don't hassle him on the premises, okay?

Give me a description, Mr. Curley.

We got nothing to talk about.

Yeah, we do, Willie.

Kevin Taggart.

Missing kid. Eight years old.

You were seen with him.

Kevin who? Hey, I never heard of him. Wait a minute. I'm not finished with

you. Well, I'm finished with you.

What the hell is this? You're going to tell me about Kevin Taggart whether you

want to or not.

I already told you I don't know no Kevin. Don't drive me, Willie.

You pay him and your other little friends to run dope. That's what

happened to Kevin, isn't it?

Now he's your mule. You sent him out on a delivery. He never came back again.

All right, Willie.

You got nothing on me. I'm not holding. You can check me. I'll do more than

that. You tell me what you know about Kevin Taggart, I'll make you the poorest

pusher in New York. I already told you, lady. I don't know what you're talking

about.

you four go around to the front, room to room, door to door, any place. Someone

could be hiding or could be hidden.

You two go around the back in case they pluck somebody out.

Okay, I'll take that. What have we got? Kevin Taggart was sent to this address.

They think it might be a shooting gallery.

Three days. You think he's still there?

This is the last place he was seen. You got a better idea?

I'll take that side.

Okay, there's another door behind that crane there, is there, Becky?

Wait,

Mary Beth, come here. How are you feeling?

What did Berenger say?

They took what they call a needle biopsy. They took some fluid out of the

lump, and they'll know something tonight.

Are you okay? You didn't have to come out here. Yeah, it's sore a little, but

that's all. It's not a big deal. I did it, okay?

Gagney! Lacey!

I got something you should look at here.

I got thinking.

What happens if the kid comes along here?

Taking a shortcut?

It's dark.

And he slips.

Let's take a look.

He's here.

He's here.

He must have fallen through these boards.

He's here!

Call for emergency services!

Kevin!

Answer me if you can!

Kevin!

We're down here three days and three nights.

If it's cold, he's got hypothermia.

What about this incinerator shaft?

If we can hear him, then he must be pretty close to us.

I can't see to the bottom, but it doesn't look blocked. It might work.

It might work.

Victor, what are you doing? You can't fit in there. Give me that. Give it to

me.

Let's see if you give way.

Put you inside.

Yeah, right.

Right, you have the address. We're going to need the paramedics, emergency

services division. We have one individual trapped. It's a juvenile.

10-4, car 21.

You found him?

Yeah, there's a big hole back of that stuff there. Christine's going down

after him.

Go ahead. I'll wait here for emergency services.

Thanks.

How is it down there?

You don't want to know.

How's it going?

I don't know.

Not terrific.

You must be cold.

Not as cold as that kid down there.

This is the mother of a little Kevin Taggart.

Mrs. Taggart, could you give us a statement? Tell us, how do you feel

knowing that your son is trapped down there? Leave me alone. Leave her alone.

Leave her alone.

Leave her alone. Leave her alone.

Leave her alone. Leave her alone. Leave her alone. Leave her alone. Leave her

alone. Leave her alone. Leave her alone. Leave her alone. Leave her alone. Leave

her alone. Leave her alone. Leave her alone. Leave her alone.

Leave her alone. Leave her alone. No, no, no. I'm afraid you can't go up

there. It's not safe.

Is he all right?

He's alive, and we'll get him out.

Have you got the sound on?

Okay. Come over here. We're going to do the stand-up piece from the corner.

We're still waiting to see what the condition of the boy is.

He's been missing for approximately three days, and from all reports,

apparently he's trapped in some kind of...

What are you doing, Kevin?

I'm cold.

I know.

Listen, Kevin, I'm gonna need your help to get you out of here.

Okay?

Get your eyes off of me. Just start very slowly.

Over here in my direction.

All right, very slow. Now stop!

All

right.

Start again.

Slow.

Kevin, give me your hand.

Nice and easy.

Very slowly.

Put your hand out.

Stretch as far as you can. Just try.

That's it. Try a little harder.

Stretch it out. Try.

Try, Kevin.

You can do it. Come on.

Try.

Becky, what is this? Sparkling paint thinner?

That's being generous.

Hey, don't knock it. It's $4.95 a bottle.

I think you overpaid.

I didn't know they made champagne in New Jersey.

My cousin Eddie courted the market.

Lacey, it's for you. On three.

Hey, look at this here.

Topping our local news, an eight-year-old boy was... Lacey? Here it

comes. Here it comes.

Excuse me, Lieutenant.

Kevin Taggart had been trapped for three days in the air shaft of the rubble of a

recently demolished building.

Today, risking his own life... Detective Chris Cagney of Manhattan's 14th... His

life? ...managed to crawl into the collapsed basement and bring Kevin out.

The boy fortunately suffered only minor injuries.

According to a police spokesperson, his reason for being near the condemned

building was not... Now everybody thinks I'm Miss Becky.

Worse than that. They think I'm you.

I understand, doctor. Thank you.

Thank you,

doctor.

Let me tell you something else.

I didn't worry about it.

Marybeth?

I see the surgeon Monday.

Dr. Beringer's office made the appointment for me.

I got his name here somewhere.

Dr. Berger said the surgeon will tell me what treatments are indicated.

Talk like that the whole time.

This guy's the surgeon?

Does that mean you have to be operated on?

Have the breast removed.

Yeah, he said it couldn't be done. Yeah.

If you touch me now, I'm going to break apart, okay? I don't know what else to

do for you. Don't do anything. I don't want you to do anything. I'll take you

to the surgeon. You missed work already.

You missed my day's work already.

I'll figure it out.

You missed my day's work already.

I don't want to depend on you for everything.

I... I don't want to mess up your life.

Mess up my life?
