You think this is stealing? This isn't stealing.

You're new, Stahl. Just be cool.

A man once told me he could always tell crooked cops

by the stench and he was right. This place reeks.

Sit down!

Fact of life number one,

we got a nice business going here.

No! No!

I need just one to crumble and the rest will fall.

Do you realize that you're pointing a gun

at a New York City police officer?

Lucky me.

And that was the Mulligan, man, back to back.

And this is face to face with Harmon Hunter,

on the around-the-clock, all-jazz station, WJZA.

The time is late, the temperature too hot,

sizzling to be exact.

But now here is a little something to cool you down from the Count,

called Blues For Little Jazz.

They're gonna kill me, man!

There'd be no profit in killing you.

Yo, what's the house number here?

You saying you won't help me?

I am saying it is an area in which I could not be effective.

Man, I did an hour of Talkback with Hunter on you!

Odds against you? Need help?

Meshuggenah, here I am!

You made a deal with a loan shark.

Nobody twisted your arm.

Well, they are now!

You don't know these people.

Well, you do.

And you did when you signed the deal.

You're not being victimized, Mr. Hunter.

And I will not help you settle a bad debt.

Good debt, bad debt!

I'm not looking for a lesson in semantics here.

I need help!

Go to the police.

Oh, yeah, right.

Leave the city.

Man, do you think I can just fade into the woodwork?

I'm Harmon Hunter!

Sorry.

I never get tired of listening to that one.

Who found her?

My old lady.

First realized she wasn't picking up the mail.

And that smell there.

Any friends or relatives?

No, she lives alone.

Yeah, it's the last door. Door on your right.

Talk about ripe, huh?

We'll take it from here.

What've we got, Braxton?

Some old lady died.

I'll call it in. Where you going?

Check it out.

Check what out?

You're new, Stahl. Just be cool.

You might learn something.

You guys lost or something?

Lost? Does it look like we're lost?

I once found $6,800 under a mattress.

Hey, look, what are you doing?

That's not evidence. We're not dealing with a homicide.

She got a nice, logical mind. I like that.

I like you, Stahl. Let me take you to school.

This is probate.

You think the state needs more legal work?

You think this is stealing? This isn't stealing.

You heard the super. She ain't got anybody.

This ain't coming out of anybody's pocket.

Think about it.

There's nothing to think about. Put it back!

Or I'll blow the whistle so loud

it'll sound like John Philip Sousa.

This is not a game I play.

Well, hey, babe, you're already on the team.

Hey, Sergeant!

Hey, Officer Stahl!

Got out from behind the desk and now we never see you.

Hey!

Hey, Daddy, I got a problem.

Come on.

The day I started riding with Braxton,

they have been setting me up.

Every week, putting money into my savings account.

How can they do that without you knowing?

Banks care about who takes money out,

not so much about who puts it in.

They're going through a lot of trouble, huh?

That's what I'm thinking.

They're into more than just petty theft.

Oh, Daddy, what should I do?

I'd get away from them.

Put in for a transfer.

What, and just let them roll on, maybe sandbag another partner?

Well, what's your option?

Just your word against theirs.

Is that the kind of cop you want me to be?

Is that the kind of cop you were?

I never touched a dime in my life.

Yeah.

And it wasn't because I didn't have the opportunity.

Hey, they are putting it in my face.

I can't ignore it.

Hey, guys like these pull themselves down.

Leave them alone.

They'll come apart like a cheap sweater.

I can't walk away. That's not

why I became a cop.

This isn't a holy crusade.

It's just a job, Sandra.

Being a cop is just a job.

No, Daddy!

You're wrong.

You rat on your partners, you'll be a fink

and you won't be any kind of cop.

So, we go down there to check it out

and we go down to their hotel and we find out

that he's handcuffed to the bedpost, lying there.

Got some little naked teeny-bopper bimbo.

Lying on the floor naked next to him.

He got no gun, he got no shoes, he got no pants, he got no...

You live alone, don't you, Stahl?

I don't have time for this.

Oh, excuse me.

You think you got something somebody wants?

Man, I don't need this.

I'm not riding with you anymore.

You can tell the captain, or I will.

Give him any reason you want, but I'm gone.

Quiet.

It's a drug buy.

You bastard! You've got me riding shotgun for some dope deal!

No, no, no, it's not just insurance.

Nobody gets ripped off with four blue suits in the room.

Four?

Much grass, dude.

I'm out of here.

Where you going?

She says she wants a new partner.

Sit down!

Fact of life number one,

we got a nice business going here.

Number two, we intend to keep it.

Fact number three,

we've gone through a lot of trouble to include you on this.

Number four, give us any trouble and you're dead.

Okay, let's talk about the ground rules.

Whatever I say,

whatever I tell you, is between you and me.

If I want to call you off, you're off.

Don't humor me.

Don't listen for the cadence of a victim.

You won't hear it.

Now if, when I tell you everything you need to know,

the situation is too much for you to handle, tell me.

Don't hang me out further than I am already.

It's hard for me to believe

that you could have difficulty with anyone or anything.

I usually don't.

But this time you were taken by surprise.

Yeah.

See, I'm a cop.

New York City policewoman?

For the last four years.

Interesting.

Perhaps you better start at the beginning.

How deep do you think this is within the department?

It's just the three of them.

They are very careful about that.

Well, what do you want from me?

Best possible scenario?

Dream of dreams.

For them to fall, without Internal Affairs, the police commissioner,

the cop on the corner...

Especially the cop on the corner.

Even so much as hearing my name.

Which means you will not testify.

Stand on that. I will not testify.

I'd rather pack it in now.

Can you take on the New York City Police Department?

Can you equalize them?

Well, the department isn't dirty.

I think we'll be able to clean up the rest.

Hey, how're you doing?

Got some interesting items for you here today.

Tell me what you think.

Particularly this one.

What do you say?

Nice, eh?

Oh.

No, no, no. Look at this one.

Let me make you more at home.

Oh, you're getting old, McCall.

Thank God.

Are you happy?

Oh, I don't mean dictionary-defined happy.

I mean, do you wake up in the morning

and say to yourself,

I can't wait to devour this day?

Hey, hey, hey! Don't be afraid to admit it.

Listen to the kid, huh?

How're you doing, Tom?

You're gonna need some more ones here, huh?

How come you're always running short on the ones?

In touch with their physical bodies but they forgot about the other.

Now, please don't think I'm trying to sell you something.

Yeah, noticed a little, little here and there, here and there.

And then after a while it's Yankee Doodle Dandy on the cash register.

He said, "You're only as happy as you choose to be."

And we're not talking about...

Don't go too far man. Okay?

Huh? Huh?

What is that?

Well, are you?

Sorry, what?

Are you happy?

Oh, wonderful idea.

Hey! Hey!

Hey! How's it going? Any problems?

Christmas in July.

Glad to hear that.

I'm gonna get knee deep into it tonight.

Why stop there?

Hey, Braxton, if you change your plans...

Have you ever read Ram Dass?

Hackers' law. Pay phones are untraceable.

These Mickey Mouse systems really try me.

Hey, remember last year?

One chip falls, a 50-cent chip.

Strategic Air Command's ready to bat us out of the ball park.

Talk about a Mickey Mouse system.

What's that? There's a flag on the file.

Another user wants to know who's accessing.

Who put the flag then?

Another department.

Internal Affairs?

What about this other name? Otis Marcel.

Oops!

Don't bother. Deceased.

The file? No, the man.

Why would Otis Marcel

be on that file?

Pull out everything you can on him, will you?

You told me that Braxton's partner before you

was a cop called Otis Marcel.

The official report on Otis Marcel is

that he died in the line of duty.

How did you get access to an official report?

What's the party line on his death?

Word was Otis was aggressive.

Real hot dog. Walked right into a domestic.

He was with Braxton for only 53 days.

Could they have killed him?

I don't know.

Yeah, maybe.

I see what you're getting at.

He's got a lot to protect.

When they bought that bar a year ago,

it was virtually bankrupt.

This year they reported.

Reported $1,600,000.

Co-conspirators to murder?

That's a good collar.

Yes, it is.

I don't see how you get to it.

I'll get to it.

Will you get to it legally?

It'll stand up.

Freeze! Freeze!

All right, get him. Down on the ground.

Watch out!

He's got a gun!

Let's go!

Let's flush it.

Now spread.

Is it clear? Yeah.

Put it away. We'll check it out later.

Lieutenant! I've got the junk!

In the bathroom.

All right!

Come on, we've got to make a stop uptown.

You go. I'll head back and do the paperwork on this.

Hey, Jerry! Yeah.

Give me a lift back to the station.

Sure, hop in.

We gotta talk.

I've got nothing to say.

Come on, Stahl.

Let's clear the air.

You don't want a hassle. We don't want a hassle.

Hey!

If it's not gonna work out between us, that's cool.

Come on.

Come on.

Just a little dialog.

Toss her.

She's not wired.

Let me check.

Aerobicize plus!

I'm putting in for a transfer. You understand what I'm saying?

I don't care what you guys do!

Oh, yeah? I can accept that, Stahl.

But these guys don't know you like I do.

I want some information. It's easier to talk.

I want some PD information.

He told him I could clean this place up.

I don't care, you better get out of here.

That's right. You better get out of here.

He told me over there about it yesterday.

I'm not in. I don't care where you do your job.

You can do your job anywhere you want to do your job.

It's all right with me, but you just better get out of here.

'Cause I tell you I know. 'Cause I...

No! Wait!

No! Wait! No!

Hey, hey, it's all right. It's all right.

Just need a little attitude adjustment, that's all.

Now why you shot that bum is your business.

I don't know what you were doing.

It's okay, partner. It's okay,

'cause we're not gonna tell the ballistics department

they need to check your gun for a match-up.

That's nice.

We'll cover that later.

Sandra, don't just sit there wallowing in self pity.

It is self-defeating!

I will be all right. I need a few days.

I'll stay away. I'll call in sick.

And what then? Resign?

Would you let up? God.

They shot him.

Just shot him. What did you expect?

You knew they were capable of doing something like that.

Sandra, there are no surprises.

A man was killed.

You feel responsible.

Me? I did not shoot him!

I did not say guilty, I said responsible.

I should have gone into the captain's office the minute this started.

But you didn't.

We can still get them.

No, no. Not possible.

You cannot go up against the three of them.

I need just one to crumble

and the rest will fall.

Which one?

Your choice.

Braxton.

However,

if we are to nail them...

If we are really to nail them...

I know.

I've thought about it a lot.

I'm gonna have to stand up.

Yes.

There never really was a choice.

So what exactly do you need from the police department, McCall?

A safety net.

A safety net.

You broke the rules on this one.

Yeah, I know. I know.

I didn't set out headhunting cops.

You've got to believe that, Jefferson.

How solid a case are we gonna have on them?

Solid.

Because you don't get a lot of shots at a hard case like Braxton.

Then we'll have to soften him up and make this one count.

There are some very nice things here.

I can make you a good price on the lot.

No, no.

Just this one.

McCall?

Jimmy.

Who's paying for this, McCall?

I am.

Am I gonna have to bill you or what?

I'm going through a divorce.

Cash.

Man, I'm getting drained for money.

You know, with the agency, it used to be 30 days.

Now you got 60, 90 days.

I'm telling you, it's Reagan.

Hey, understand, I'm not trying to grind you on the price or nothing.

Do I determine the dosage by body mass?

With the hydrophilum, yeah.

But if you're gonna mix it with this fellow, then buckle up.

It'll fill someone's mind with terror.

Tell them what you want them to fear.

It'll be their worst nightmare.

Snakes eating snakes.

You got anything else, you let me know.

Not that it's gonna matter.

When she gets done with me, McCall,

there ain't gonna be nothing left but a grease spot.

Yeah.

All right, you want me? Come on.

You got a problem?

Who are you?

They don't show anything.

It's not what they show. They don't show anything.

It's not what they show.

It's that they got taken in the first place

and how he got them into the car.

I've got a $600 security system on that car.

And how he got this into the apartment.

So what's he want?

What have you been doing that we don't know about?

Nothing!

Braxie, there's got to be something.

I'm not into anything that you guys don't know about.

Bull! He's too serious about wanting a piece of you.

So, what are you saying?

Just that!

You stumble, you plant your face in alone.

I'm not eating the pavement with you.

That's him.

What do you want with me?

To see you crawl.

This guy clangs, Braxton.

Comes right in here and puts it to you.

What's this all about?

Did I do something to you?

'Cause if I did, I don't know about it. You just tell me.

Do I know you?

A man once told me he could always tell crooked cops by the stench.

He was right. This place reeks.

You know who told me that?

You tell me.

Otis.

Otis Marcel.

What's Otis to you, Uncle?

He said you three were on the take.

Any slimy job for money.

What's the matter? No response, no rebuttal?

I'll tell you what.

Let's go in the back room and talk.

You've been taking a lot of trouble following me around.

Taking those little pictures.

So, you obviously got a lot on your mind.

So, let's go back there and talk.

In time.

In time we will talk.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I have just had an exchange of words with three crooked cops.

They have already murdered one man and probably others.

But I want you to remember

exactly what each of them does when I leave.

Thank you.

Good night.

That's the guy who scared you, Braxton?

The guy's on a pass from Bellevue.

He's no cop.

Yeah, so what? What are you worried about?

He's somebody.

Makes no difference.

If he could've done something, he would have.

Do you see how easy that was, Braxton?

How does it feel

to be

dead?

You are scum!

You are scum!

You make everything you touch dirty!

And you made me lower than you are!

And that I will not forgive.

I do not forgive!

I do not forgive! I do not forgive!

I do not forgive! I do not forgive!

I do not forgive! I do not forgive!

I do not forgive!

You okay here?

Yeah.

You're too strung up.

I want this one. Bad.

Don't.

Don't want it too badly.

Good luck.

Man, you look ugly. What the hell happened to you last night?

It was those Swedish sisters.

No wonder those people never won a war.

How about you, Stahl?

You got lucky last night or what?

Yeah, Stahl.

You should come by the club some time.

We can fix her up with Guido. Tomato can!

Braxie!

What the hell happened?

Let's get him off the street.

Did anybody see me?

Man, you look like death warmed over.

So what happened?

That guy from last night.

What did he do? Doped me up

and shagged me down like a dog.

Why'd you let him do that to you?

Let him? I didn't let him do anything!

The guy's gonna put us all in the jackpot.

Maybe he just wants you, Braxton.

You were the one who killed Otis.

We were all there!

Then, it wasn't a domestic?

Smarten up!

Otis was looking to roll over like a Coney Island duck boat.

Okay, but what was Otis to this guy, if he's not a cop?

He's coming at us like this?

I'm not just gonna stand back and watch.

Hey, we get one.

It comes with the badge. We'll set him up!

So, set him up!

So, Officers Frank Sergi, Miguel Conterra

and Peter Braxton murdered Officer Otis Marcel.

Is that right?

What the hell are you doing?

I'm taking you down so hard the ground's going to shake.

See this?

Your button?

Come on, come on. Don't grandstand.

It's a wire. See him?

And them?

It's all on tape.

You're gonna crash and burn with us.

Stahl, move out of there!

Come on, Miguel, make your move. What do you got to lose?

Freeze!

You realize

that you are pointing a gun

at a New York City

police officer?

Lucky me.

You know, you have my respect, Officer.

It took a lot to do what you did.

It was worth it.

Whatever it will cost me.

When a cop stands up the way you did,

she doesn't stand alone for long.

Thank you.

All right, so two and a half weeks later, after everything imaginable...

I mean, the man has frostbite,

he has lost all of his provisions,

he has been attacked by his own Sherpa by mistake, all right?

They worked their way all the way across the Shan Mountains

and the little village where the Padre is waiting to be evacuated, right?

Yeah.

Now, the Padre will not budge.

He has had a revelation.

He has had an acute change of politics.

Oh, yes.

Latham always did have the knack

of invoking Murphy's Law, didn't he?

You know, the last time that you invited me over here for a drink

was right after Czechoslovakia.

Now I hope this is not quite that bad.

I just

needed to talk to an old friend.

That's all.

And I'm the closest thing you could find, right?

Yeah, well.

It is still there.

What?

Oh, the...

Evil.

McCall, it's not evil, it's a craft.

It's cunning, it's a...

It's an ability.

But as long as the objective is sane, it is not evil.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

I sometimes think

that if it just rained long enough,

it will wash the streets clean of all the filth.

But

it never does, does it?

And if it rained long enough...

I mean, it never does. It always stops.

And then the snakes come out to dry.

And it's just as filthy as it was before the rain started.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm all right.

I don't know where else to turn.

I've gone everywhere.

I saw your ad in the paper. "Odds against you."

Yeah, yeah, well, they're sure stacked on the other side.

Is anyone there?

Please! Help me!

I'm a dead man.

Please! Someone please, please answer.

I'm here.
