‐ I WANT TO BE ABLE TO TELL YOU WHAT'S GOING ON IN MY LIFE. ‐ YOU GOT THAT TOO.

THEY START BITING HOLES IN EACH OTHER'S NECKS. LET ME TALK TO HIM.

THANKS.

[ MAN ] WE CAN ORDER ANYTHING WE WANT OFF OF HERE?

IT'S NOT ALL DRIED OUT, IS IT? PREMIUM CUT.

FLASH‐BROILED WITH A LITTLE BUTTER TO ORDER.

I'LL TAKE THAT, MEDIUM RARE,

MASHED POTATOES, FRENCH BEANS AND SOME GRAVY.

GOOD CHOICE. DETECTIVE STILLWELL‐‐

UH, IN A MINUTE, KELLY. I GOTTA FINISH UP HERE.

DO YOU WANT THAT GRAVY ON THE MEAT OR ON THE POTATOES, OR BOTH?

I WANT IT ON THE MEAT, BUT I DON'T WANT IT ROLLING IN THE VEGETABLES.

YOU WANT IT ON THE SIDE, IN A LITTLE CARTON.

‐ SOMETHING LIKE THAT. ‐ YEAH.

UH, JUDGE SAYS IF YOU DON'T WANT DESSERT,

YOU GOTTA SO STATE IN FRONT OF WITNESSES.

NO, I WANT DESSERT. YEAH. YEAH.

YEAH, I'LL, UH‐‐ I'LL CATCH UP WITH HIM LATER.

ALL RIGHT. I'M SAYING IT NICE, DETECTIVE, BUT I'M SAYING IT.

EITHER YOU STRAIGHTEN THIS ASSHOLE OUT, OR I'M HANGING HIM WITH THE LIEUTENANT.

OKAY, GOT YOU, SARGE.

[ PHONE RINGING ]

[ CLEARS THROAT ] HEY. HEY. WHAT'S GOIN' ON?

WE GOTTA TALK TO STILLWELL. HE'S TAKING LUNCH ORDERS AGAIN.

WHOA. EXCUSE ME, KELLY. WE DON'T GOTTA DO ANYTHING.

HEY, DETECTIVE. HEY, MARTINEZ.

WHAT'S GOIN' ON, KID? NOT MUCH. GOT A MINUTE FOR ME, DETECTIVE?

YEAH, SURE. I'LL CATCH YOU LATER.

OVER HERE.

WHAT'S UP? A COUPLE OF THINGS, YOU KNOW.

SOME FAMILY STUFF TO DEAL WITH,

PLUS I GOT A SITUATION IN REGARDS TO ANOTHER COP.

‐ WHAT SITUATION? ‐ HE'S A BAD COP.

HE'S CLEANING TENANTS OUT OF A RENT‐CONTROLLED BUILDING.

HE'S ROBBING PEOPLE. HE'S HARASSING 'EM. HE'S BEATIN' 'EM UP.

HOW ARE YOU INVOLVED? HE'S THE SUPER AT MY BROTHER'S BUILDING.

I'M STAYING THERE A LITTLE WHILE.

THE GUY WAS JUST IN MY FACE THIS MORNING.

AND HE SAYS HE'S ON THE JOB? YEAH, AFTER I SHOWED HIM MY BADGE.

THEN HE GETS ALL FRIENDLY, SAYS DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE RENT BEING ON TIME.

STARTS TALKING ABOUT THROWING A FEW BUCKS MY WAY.

WHOA. I'M NOT GONNA TELL YOU DON'T BRING HIM UP ON CHARGES,

BUT, UH, YOU GOTTA KNOW THIS IS A BIG STEP, MARTINEZ.

YEAH. I MEAN,

I DIDN'T JOIN THE DEPARTMENT TO BUST OTHER COPS.

THAT'S HOW PEOPLE END UP ON THE RAT SQUAD.

ALL RIGHT. YOU THINK YOU CAN TALK TO THIS GUY MAN‐TO‐MAN? WHAT'S HIS NAME?

‐ HANLAN. HE'S OUT OF THE 33‐‐ ‐ YOU THINK YOU CAN TALK TO HIM, STRAIGHTEN HIM OUT?

WELL, MAYBE I‐I COULD TRY THAT.

THAT OUGHTA BE YOUR FIRST STEP.

YEAH.

THAT'S PROBABLY WHAT I OUGHTA DO. OKAY.

THANKS, DETECTIVE.

YOU MOVED INTO YOUR BROTHER'S PLACE? YEAH, I MIGHT DO THAT.

YOU NEVER TOLD ME WHAT HE DOES. ROBERTO?

YEAH. HE'S STILL FEELING HIS WAY ALONG.

STILL LOOKING FOR HIS NICHE.

HEY, KEEP ME POSTED ON THIS OTHER SITUATION.

WILL DO. THANKS FOR THE ADVICE. YEAH.

YO, KELLY. WHAT DO YOU NEED?

YOU GOT PLANS FOR LUNCH? I CAN BE HAD.

ANDY AND I WANNA TAKE YOU OUT. IT'S A DATE.

WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO PROVE HERE, JOHN?

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO RAISE THIS GUY OVER AGAIN.

‐ YOU DON'T THINK HIS STUFF IS STARTING TO GET WEIRDER? ‐ I DON'T KEEP REAL CLOSE TABS.

I MEAN, STILLWELL WANTS TO BE A PRACTICAL JOKER, LOSE HIS PAYCHECK GAMBLING,

‐ THAT'S WHY THEY FOUGHT THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR. ‐ HEY, GUYS.

[ CLEARS THROAT ] YOU THINK PRESEASON PRO BASKETBALL'S A SUCKER'S BET?

I DON'T FOLLOW IT THAT CLOSELY. WE ORDERED.

I GAVE MINE IN THE BACK. ANDY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING THERE?

WHAT? WE CAN'T TAKE YOU ANYWHERE. WHOOP.

‐ [ LAUGHING ] ‐ SO WHAT'S THE OCCASION?

IT'S PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA TO STOP TAKING LUNCH ORDERS FOR THE HOLDING CELL.

WAIT A SECOND. YOU DON'T THINK THAT'S FUNNY? YEAH.

‐ I THINK YOU'VE HAD A GOOD RUN WITH IT. ‐ WELL, IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT,

YOU'RE REALLY ASKING THE SARGE TO CLEAN UP THE MESS AFTERWARD.

ALL RIGHT. THAT'S A POINT. I'LL MAKE IT RIGHT WITH THE SARGE.

I'LL LIGHTEN UP ON IT. WAIT.

‐ EARN YOUR TIP. JETS GET SEVEN AT THE BILLS. ‐ THE BILLS.

‐ YOU'RE NUTS. JETS WIN ON THE FIELD. ‐ OH, THE BILLS COVER.

GO BACK TO MAH‐JONGG, YOU HUMP!

[ LAUGHING ] HE ALWAYS UNTIES MY SHOELACES.

SO, UH, HOW'S YOUR LOVE LIVES? OR WAIT.

YOU DONE REBUKING ME? THAT'S IT.

‐ LOVE LIFE'S A LITTLE SLOW. ‐ DITTO.

HOW'S LILA? GOOD. WE GOT A LITTLE ROCKY PATCH COMING UP.

IS THAT RIGHT? I TOOK OUT A LOAN...

ON OUR PENSION ON SOME REAL ESTATE THING IN NEW MEXICO.

TURNED OUT TO BE BOGUS. SHE DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT IT YET.

[ SIGHS ] I DON'T PLAN ANY BIG SEXFEST...

THE NIGHT WE HAVE THAT LITTLE TALK. HOW BAD WAS THE HIT?

‐ I'D SAY, UH, ALL OF IT. PRETTY MUCH ALL. ‐ THAT'S ROUGH, ART.

AH, BALLS. ALL'S I NEED'S A 12‐TEAM PARLAY, AND I'M SQUARE.

[ CHATTERING ]

[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING ]

YOU THINK THE OLD MAN COULD'VE HAD A HEART ATTACK OR A STROKE?

SURE, BEFORE OR AFTER HE FELL THROUGH THE RAILING?

LET'S GO.

WATCH YOUR STEP. I TOLD YOU, DETECTIVE.

I TOLD YOU THIS HANLAN WAS A BAD GUY. TAKE IT EASY, MARTINEZ.

THAT OLD MAN KEPT AN EYE OUT ON MY BROTHER. HE LOOKED OUT FOR HIM.

IT'S AN OLD BUILDING. I GUESS THE RAILING COULD'VE LOOSENED ON ITS OWN,

BUT THERE'S SOME FRESH SCREWDRIVER MARKS WHERE THE BRACKETS WERE.

THE LADY OVER HERE SAYS THAT MRS. VICARIO IN 207...

SUFFOCATED THREE MONTHS AGO FROM THE GAS IN HER STOVE.

SAYS THAT THE WINDOWS IN HER APARTMENT WERE SHUT IN THE MIDDLE OF JULY.

SHE THINKS THE SUPER DID THAT TOO.

DID SHE HAVE ANY RUN‐INS WITH HIM PERSONALLY? NO. I ASKED HER THAT.

IS YOUR BROTHER AROUND? NO, NOT RIGHT NOW.

NO POINT IN DUSTIN'. GUY'S THE SUPER.

FINGERPRINTS ON THE BANISTER WOULDN'T PROVE ANYTHING ANYWAY.

I CALLED HANLAN'S PRECINCT. HE'S DOIN' A 4‐TO‐12.

I DON'T WANNA TALK TO HIM ON THE JOB, SO WE'LL TALK TO HIM TOMORROW. ALL RIGHT?

HE DID THIS. I'M TELLING YOU, HE DID THIS. HE'S A BAD GUY!

I HEAR YOU, MARTINEZ, AND WE'RE GONNA DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. COME ON.

[ SIREN WAILING ]

[ CHATTERING ]

[ CAR HORN HONKING, TRAFFIC NOISE ]

[ PEOPLE CHATTERING ]

LAURA! HEY. HEY.

SORRY I HAD TO CANCEL LUNCH YESTERDAY, BUT‐‐ NO PROBLEM.

HEY, JUST LIKE LAW SCHOOL‐‐ JUNK FOOD ON THE FLY. YEAH.

SO ARE YOU ALL SETTLED IN? YOU GOT YOUR BOXES UNPACKED? PRETTY MUCH.

THE ASSISTANT D. A.'S AREA IS A LITTLE LIKE KAFKA, NO?

YEAH, MY OFFICE IS IN KIND OF A LONG ROW.

SO THE GROUP OF CASES I'M WORKING STARTED WITH A COUPLE OF STREET‐LEVEL DOMINICAN DRUG DEALERS.

THEY KEEP GOING DOWN LIKE DOMINOES, I KEEP GOING UP.

I'M NOT TWO CONVICTIONS AWAY FROM BEING THE TOP...

NARCOTICS PROSECUTOR IN THE FIVE BOROUGHS,

WHICH MEANS I GOT 47 OTHER PROSECUTORS WHO WOULD LOVE TO SEE ME FALL ON MY FACE.

I WANT YOU TO KEEP ME FROM DOING THAT.

I'M SECOND SEAT INTERVIEWING WITNESSES.

YOU'LL PICK IT RIGHT UP. YOU WERE ALWAYS SMARTER THAN I WAS.

ONCE YOU GET USED TO THE DIRTY WATER, YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THE WORK.

I CAN GET USED TO DIRTY WATER. YOU SEE THAT?

THAT IS U. S. ATTORNEY GOLDFARB.

HE CONTROLS A WITNESS WE NEED. WE'RE PITCHING HIM TOMORROW.

IN MY LARCENOUS HEART, I'D LIKE TO BUY HIM A BOX OF THOSE $10 TORCHES HE SMOKES.

MY ADVICE WOULD BE: DON'T DO THAT.

SEE? YOU'RE GONNA BE ESSENTIAL.

[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS ]

[ SIREN WAILING ]

[ PEOPLE CHATTERING ]

YOU JOHN KELLY? YEAH.

JACK HANLAN. HEY, JACK. THANKS FOR COMIN' IN.

ANDY SIPOWICZ, JACK HANLAN. HOW YOU DOIN'?

COME OVER HERE, JACK.

YOU WANT COFFEE, JACK? NO. NO, THANKS.

I KNEW A JOHN KELLY WITH THE 25 WHEN I WAS COMING UP.

THAT WOULD'VE BEEN MY FATHER. AND YOU CAN BE PROUD OF THAT.

HE WAS A WARRIOR, YOUR OLD MAN. A REAL OLD‐TIME BULL.

STAND‐UP ALL THE WAY.

SO YOU'RE, UH, WORKING AS A SUPER IN THIS BUILDING WHERE THE OLD MAN DIED YESTERDAY?

YEAH. GOD, YOU MUST'VE BEEN JUST A KID WHEN YOUR DAD PASSED.

I WAS 11.

WE'LL NOT SEE HIS LIKE AGAIN SOON.

WELL, WHAT WAS IT YOU WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT THE ACCIDENT, JOHN?

WE LOOKED FOR YOU AT THE BUILDING. I WAS WORKING THE NIGHT TOUR.

I FELT HORRIBLE ABOUT THE OLD GUY FALLING THROUGH THE RAILING.

ANY OTHER PROBLEMS AT THAT BUILDING?

THE USUAL‐‐ A FEW BREAK‐INS,

JUNKIES ROBBING PENSIONERS ON CHECK DAY.

I SMACK 'EM AROUND A LITTLE BIT JUST TO KEEP 'EM IN LINE.

ASIDE FROM SOME VANDALISM, UH, THERE HASN'T BEEN MUCH ELSE.

WELL, WE HEARD THE LANDLORD WANTS THE TENANTS OUT.

[ LAUGHS ] SURE. AND HE DOESN'T WASTE MONEY ON IMPROVEMENTS.

BUT I KEEP THINGS RUNNING AT A BASIC LEVEL.

PEOPLE MOVE OUT GRADUALLY.

WE DON'T HAVE DOBERMANS IN THE HALLWAYS AT NIGHT OR ANYTHING.

WE HEARD COMPLAINTS ABOUT CONDITIONS.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE MY TO‐DO LIST?

IT'S HELL KEEPING UP, ESPECIALLY THE BOILER.

THAT BOILER IS A BASTARD.

[ SIREN CHIRPING ]

HOW ABOUT YOUR BOILER, SIPOWICZ? I HEARD YOU TOOK A FEW SHOTS NOT LONG AGO.

I GET UP AND DOWN THE STAIRS.

[ LAUGHING ]

YEAH, THESE YOUNG GUYS TODAY.

THEY TAKE A WHACK LIKE THAT, IT'S INSTANT DISABILITY RETIREMENT.

THEN THEY SPEND THE REST OF THEIR LIVES TELLING EVERYBODY...

WHAT A GREAT HERO THEY ARE, LIKE THIS KID FROM HERE I MET‐‐

MARTINEZ.

YEAH, YEAH, SOME NAME LIKE THAT.

HIS BROTHER LIVES IN THE BUILDING.

HE'S ONE OF THE JUNKIES I WAS TELLING YOU ABOUT. WE HAD A LITTLE RUN‐IN.

‐ WELL, UH, ANYTHING ELSE I CAN TELL YOU? ‐ THAT'S ABOUT IT.

OKEYDOKE, THEN. OH, IF YOU GOT A FREE NIGHT, KELLY,

LET'S HAVE A BEER.

I'LL TELL YOU A FEW STORIES ABOUT YOUR OLD MAN YOUR MOTHER DOESN'T KNOW.

THANKS FOR THE OFFER.

SURE, ANYTIME. KEEP THE WIND AT YOUR BACK.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, WHAT DO I THINK? THIS LYIN' DONKEY SCUMBAG SON OF A BITCH.

YOU DON'T FIGURE YOUR OLD MAN AND HIM WOULD'VE BEEN RUNNIN' BUDDIES?

‐ MY OLD MAN WOULDN'T STAND AT THE SAME BAR WITH THIS GUY. ‐ YOU THINK HE CROAKED THIS GUY?

YOU KNOW HE DID. AND HE'S GONNA WALK ON IT, ISN'T HE?

COME ON. WE'LL RUN IT FOR THE LIEUTENANT.

JOSELITO, IF YOU SEE HIM, WOULD YOU CALL ME UP?

PLEASE, ALL RIGHT? IT'S REAL IMPORTANT.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

BECAUSE I WANT MY EYES ON YOU WHEN I ASK YOU WHAT'S GOING ON.

NOW, YOU KNOW YOUR COUSIN ROSA'S KID'S BEING CHRISTENED ON SUNDAY?

YEAH, I'M GONNA BE THERE. WHAT ABOUT YOUR BROTHER?

I DON'T KNOW IF HE CAN MAKE IT. I CALLED HIS PLACE OF WORK.

THEY SAY HE'S NOT THERE ANYMORE. THE JOB AND HIM, IT WASN'T A FIT.

I TOLD YOU, I'M WATCHING YOU. AND I'M TELLING YOU THE TRUTH.

YOU MOVE OUT OF THE HOUSE. YOU'RE LIVING AT HIS PLACE.

YOUR MOTHER'S WORRIED, WHICH IS GETTING TO ME. WHAT'S GOING ON?

I DON'T KNOW. I'M NOT SURE.

HE'S YOUR LITTLE BROTHER. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO TAKE CARE OF HIM.

I KNOW! I'M TRYING!

[ KELLY CHATTERING ]

COME HERE. COME HERE.

COME HERE.

IF THIS WASN'T YOUR PLACE OF WORK AND YOUR BOSS OVER THERE...

AND THESE OTHER PEOPLE HERE,

I'D STAND YOU UP AGAINST THE WALL AND KNOCK THE CRAP OUTTA YOU.

HE'S YOUR LITTLE BROTHER. I'M TRYING TO TAKE CARE OF HIM.

NOW, YOU TELL MAMA HE'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT.

PAPI, THIS IS DETECTIVE JOHN KELLY.

THIS IS MY FATHER HECTOR. NICE TO MEET YOU.

LIKEWISE.

I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER. OKAY.

GOT A CHRISTENING ON SUNDAY. HE GETS ALL WORKED UP.

LIEUTENANT WANTS TO SEE YOU. ALL RIGHT.

YEAH, I'LL CALL YOU RIGHT BACK.

YOU ASKED TO BE KEPT APPRISED ON THIS INCIDENT AT YOUR BROTHER'S BUILDING.

‐ YES, SIR. ‐ WELL, KELLY AND SIPOWICZ BOTH THINK YOU'RE RIGHT.

THE COP WHO'S THE SUPER IS NO GOOD.

THEY BOTH THINK HE'S PROBABLY RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT OLD MAN,

BUT HE'S COVERED.

THERE'S NO WITNESSES, NO CONCLUSIVE PHYSICAL EVIDENCE.

‐ THEN I WANT TO GO FORWARD ON THE OTHER STUFF. ‐ WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I WANT TO NOTIFY INTERNAL AFFAIRS ON WHAT THIS GUY'S BEEN DOING‐‐

THE BRIBE HE OFFERED ME, HOW HE BEAT MY BROTHER.

YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DO THIS?

YEAH. I KNOW THIS IS A BIG STEP.

DETECTIVE KELLY AND I TALKED ABOUT IT BEFORE. I WANT TO DO IT.

[ SIGHS ] UH, I‐‐

I KNOW A GUY IN I. A. D. LET ME REACH OUT TO HIM.

DETECTIVE JOHN KELLY.

I CALLED YOUR OFFICE. THEY SAID YOU STILL COME OUT HERE.

GIVE MYSELF A RECITAL HERE THREE, FOUR TIMES A WEEK.

HOW YOU DOIN', KEVIN? HOW'S KAREN?

SHE GOT A LITTLE GRAY, FEW LINES AROUND HER EYES. I LIKE IT.

KIDS? EH.

TERRY'S, UH, GOING TO ST. MALACHI'S NOW, DOING GOOD. BRIAN'S 14.

ALL HE CAN THINK ABOUT IS JUST WHAT YOU'D EXPECT HIM TO, PLUS FOOTBALL.

‐ WHAT HAPPENED WITH YOU? ‐ YOU REMEMBER LAURIE?

YEAH. THE GIRL I WAS SEEING? YEAH, I MARRIED HER.

IS THAT SO? I LIKED HER.

YEAH, WE, UH‐‐ WE SPLIT UP A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. YOU KNOW.

SORRY TO HEAR IT.

SO, JOHN,

YOU HERE TO RENEW OUR BIG FRIENDSHIP, OR... DID YOU MAYBE WANT SOMETHING?

[ PLANE FLYING OVERHEAD ]

WE GOT A BAD COP, KEVIN.

A YOUNG GUY I WORK WITH, JAMES MARTINEZ, WANTS TO BUST HIM.

I WAS HOPING YOU COULD HANDLE THE CASE. THAT'S WHAT I DO.

HE'S GOING TO GET A LOT OF EXPOSURE WHEN YOU GUYS MAKE THE COLLAR.

SO YOU WANT TO KNOW CAN WE KEEP HIM LOW‐PROFILE...

SO HE DOESN'T SPEND THE REST OF HIS CAREER QUARANTINED IN I. A. D...

WITH A BUNCH OF CRAPHOUSE RATS AND SNITCHES SUCH AS MYSELF?

I NEVER PASSED JUDGMENT ON YOU. YEAH. LOOK HOW CLOSE WE STAYED.

THAT WAS YOU. YOU PUT IN FOR I. A. D.

AND YOU WEREN'T MORE COMFORTABLE WITH THAT, RIGHT?

FOR HAVING TO HANG AROUND WITH A COP WHO POPPED A FELLOW OFFICER.

DIDN'T YOU DO WHAT YOU THOUGHT WAS RIGHT? DIDN'T YOU?

YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT! AND I'D DO THE SAME THING TODAY.

I KNOW THAT.

I DIDN'T COME OUT HERE TO DIG ALL THIS UP AGAIN.

YOU WANT TO KNOW CAN I HELP YOUR FRIEND MARTINEZ.

I CAN KEEP HIS NAME OUT OF THE PAPERS UNTIL THE TRIAL.

THEN IF THIS BAD COP PLEADS OUT, MARTINEZ' NAME MAY NOT GET PUBLISHED AT ALL.

I'D APPRECIATE THAT.

THEN NO ONE WOULD KNOW WHAT HE DID EXCEPT, OF COURSE,

EVERYONE IN THE DEPARTMENT THIS BAD COP TALKS TO.

AND TELLS THEM HOW THIS LOUSY RAT SNITCH SPICK MARTINEZ...

OUT OF THE 15 PRECINCT SET HIM UP.

EXCUSE ME, KELLY.

I HAVE TWO DEAD HEROIN DEALERS, THE COLON BROTHERS,

BOTH TAKEN OUT BY AGOSTO REYES.

THIS REYES PUT $100,000 WORTH OF SMACK ON THE STREET EVERY MONTH.

YOUR PROTECTED WITNESS WAS HIS SUPPLIER.

FOR SECURITY PURPOSES, WE'RE CALLING OUR WITNESS THE ROACH.

‐ THE ROACH? ‐ YES.

THIS GUY I'M TRYING TO PUT AWAY, REYES,

PROBABLY HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH THE ROACH REGARDING THESE MURDERS.

EVERYBODY'S ASKING FOR THE ROACH‐‐

HARTFORD, ATLANTIC CITY, EVERYBODY.

HOW ESSENTIAL IS THE ROACH'S TESTIMONY TO YOUR CASE?

IT WOULD MAKE IT BULLETPROOF.

WE'D ONLY NEED A COUPLE DAYS' INTERROGATION AND PREP, THEN MAYBE ONE DAY OF TESTIMONY.

WE'RE PREPARED TO BE FULLY FLEXIBLE REGARDING ANY OF THE DEMANDS ON HIS TIME.

THAT'S A PRECONDITION OF ACCESS TO THIS WITNESS.

I'LL ALSO SEE THAT THE U. S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE IS LAVISHLY CREDITED...

FOR FACILITATING THIS PROSECUTION.

THANKS FOR THE KISS, BUT WHAT YOU JUST OFFERED SO GENEROUSLY,

THAT'S ALSO A PRECONDITION OF ACCESS TO THIS WITNESS.

WOULD YOU MIND WAITING OUTSIDE A MINUTE, PLEASE?

[ WOMAN ] IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S JUST FINISHING UP‐‐

[ SIGHS ]

SO HOW DO YOU THINK I DID IN THERE?

YOU WERE GOOD. YOU DON'T THINK SO?

IF WE GET THE ROACH, I THINK SO.

CAN YOU TELL ME WHO GAVE HIM THE STUPID CODE NAME LIKE THE ROACH?

I DID.

IF YOU'LL STEP BACK IN, WE CAN START WORKING OUT YOUR ACCESS.

[ PHONE RINGING ]

[ CAR HORN HONKING ]

HERE'S THE 1606. TAKE THESE BACK, ALL RIGHT? SURE, SARGE.

I JUST MISSED THE BROOKLYN NUMBER 427. I HAD 815.

WHAT DO YOU WANT, STILLWELL? SARGE, I OWE YOU AN APOLOGY.

UH, I WENT A LITTLE OVERBOARD ON THAT FOOD GAG,

AND I JUST WANT TO SAY IT'S FINITO. END OF STORY.

YEAH? WELL, I WAS THIS NEAR TO TAKING YOU TO THE LIEUTENANT.

AND I APPRECIATE THAT YOU DIDN'T. SQUARE?

YEAH, SURE.

THANKS, SARGE.

DO YOU HAVE ANYONE WHO CAN CORROBORATE THE INCIDENTS YOU'VE ALLEGED?

ONE 80‐YEAR‐OLD GUY WHO COULD HAVE DONE IT IS DEAD.

YOU SAID YOUR BROTHER WAS ALSO A VICTIM OF HARASSMENT.

‐ WOULD HE BE AVAILABLE TO GIVE A STATEMENT? ‐ EVENTUALLY, YEAH.

‐ WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? ‐ WELL, HE'S NOT AVAILABLE. I'M NOT SURE WHERE HE IS.

WE HAVE NO CASE UNLESS WE CAN GET HANLAN ON RECORD.

‐ HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT WEARING A WIRE? ‐ I DON'T WANT TO.

THEN WE CAN'T PROCEED.

I SAID I DON'T WANT TO. I DIDN'T SAY I WOULDN'T.

THIS GUY MADE AN OLD MAN DIE. HE PROBABLY KILLED AN OLD WOMAN TOO.

HE ABUSED MY BROTHER. I DON'T WANT TO, BUT...

IF IT TAKES WEARING A WIRE TO POP THIS GUY, THEN THAT'S WHAT I'M GONNA DO.

[ TYPEWRITER KEYS CLACKING ] [ PEOPLE CHATTERING ]

[ PHONES RINGING ]

OH, MAN, THAT'S THE GEAR. THEY'RE GONNA PUT A WIRE ON THE KID.

THIS IS NO GOOD. HE'S A BIG BOY, JOHN.

MM‐MM, NO GOOD.

[ SIREN WAILING ]

[ KNOCK AT DOOR ]

‐ HOW ABOUT WE HOLD OFF ON THIS? LET ME TALK TO THE GUY. ‐ THIS ISN'T YOUR PROBLEM.

MARTINEZ, HANLAN WANTS TO DRINK WITH ME, PISS IN MY EAR A LITTLE.

‐ MAYBE I CAN GET HIM TO TALK ABOUT THE OLD MAN. ‐ WILL YOU WEAR A WIRE?

NO. BUT IF I CAN GET HIM TO COP TO THE CRIME,

MAYBE I CAN FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MAKE IT STAND UP IN COURT.

DO IT.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

[ SIREN WAILING ] [ PHONE RINGING ]

YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO ON THIS. YOU'RE NOT PLANNING TO KILL THIS GUY, ARE YOU?

‐ NO. ‐ WHO'S DRIVING?

HEY, SIPOWICZ, KELLY, CHECK THIS OUT. IT'LL JUST TAKE A SECOND.

YOU GOTTA HEAR THIS. GO ON, PAL.

TELL THESE DETECTIVES WHAT YOU JUST TOLD ME.

WELL, UH, I WAS WAITING AT A BUS STOP...

WHEN THESE TWO WOMEN OFFERED ME A LIFT HOME.

THEY WERE YOUNG, ATTRACTIVE, VERY FRIENDLY,

SO NATURALLY I ACCEPTED. GO ON. THEN WHAT?

THEY DROVE DOWN UNDER THE WESTSIDE HIGHWAY,

AND THEY PARKED THERE AND...

ORDERED ME TO REMOVE MY CLOTHES AT GUNPOINT.

AT GUNPOINT. YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS. TELL 'EM.

I WAS HUMILIATED.

THEY FORCED ME TO... YOU KNOW, PLEASURE ONE OF THEM.

AND? AND, AND?

I EXPERIENCED... AN UNWANTED EMISSION.

THIS BEING THE FIRST OF SEVERAL UNWANTED EMISSIONS...

INTIMIDATED OUT OF THIS‐‐ THIS RAMPANT BULL OF A MAN.

DON'T YOU THINK YOU OUGHT TO TAKE THIS KIND OF COMPLAINT IN THE INTERVIEW ROOM?

THE INTERVIEW ROOM? NOBODY'D BELIEVE ME IF I CAME OUT WITH A STORY LIKE THIS.

‐ SKIP TO THE NEXT EMISSION. ‐ DO I HAVE TO?

YEAH, YOU HAVE TO.

OKAY, SO NOW THE OTHER ONE ORDERS ME TO DO THE SAME TO HER‐‐ THE SEXUAL THING.

‐ AND HE'S COERCED OUT OF YET ANOTHER EMISSION. ‐ UH, WE GOTTA GO.

DO YOU BELIEVE THIS GUY? HE'S GOT SO MANY EMISSIONS, HE'S GONNA NEED A SMOG CERTIFICATE!

YOU BAGGER! YOU'RE 60! YOUR BUTT HANGS DOWN THE BACK OF YOUR KNEES!

YOU OUGHTA THROW YOURSELF ON THE FLOOR AND THANK GOD...

YOU CAN MAKE UP STORIES LIKE THIS!

I'M NOT GONNA TAKE THIS! I'M GETTING OUTTA HERE! HEY! WAIT A SECOND.

‐ HEY, ART. ‐ WHERE YOU GOING?

HEY, HEY! I WANT YOU TO SHOW THESE COPS THE ABUSED ORGAN IN QUESTION!

COME BACK HERE AND LAY OUT THAT AWESOME WOOD RIGHT HERE ON MY DESK!

‐ [ PHONE RINGING ] ‐ [ SIREN WAILS ]

YOU SHOULD SEE YOUR GUYS'‐‐ [ LAUGHING ]

IF THIS ISN'T THE LAST SUPPER‐‐ [ LAUGHING ]

HEY! HEY, IT'S A JOKE. I HIRED THE GUY.

[ LAUGHING ] OH, YOU SHOULD SEE YOUR FACES.

[ LAUGHING ] MY LAST 180 BUCKS!

I CLEANED OUT THE ACCOUNT, BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!

OH, I LOST URINE, IT WAS SO FUNNY!

I'M TELLIN' YA, I GOTTA GO CHANGE MY SHORTS. WHOO!

ART. ART. ART.

HEY. HEY.

HOW'S IT GOIN', LIEUTENANT? IT'S OKAY. HOW YOU DOIN'?

FINE. YOU WANNA STEP IN MY OFFICE?

HEY, LIEUTENANT‐‐ NO, COME ON, COME ON.

COME ON, LIEUTENANT. JUST HAVING SOME FUN HERE.

THAT ISN'T WHAT I SAW, ART.

W‐‐ WELL, YOU THINK IT GOT A LITTLE TOO OUT OF LINE?

[ PHONE RINGING ] ART, I WANT YOU TO GIVE ME YOUR GUN.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? WHY?

BECAUSE I THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEA.

WHY? YOU GONNA TAKE ME TO THE PUZZLE HOUSE?

‐ GONNA TAKE ME TO PSYCH SERVICES? ‐ THAT'S RIGHT.

COME ON. LIEUTENANT.

COME ON, ART. GIVE ME THE GUN.

EH‐‐ EH‐‐

WE'RE OFF TO SEE THE WIZARD.

[ KNOCKING ON DOOR ] HANLAN, YOU IN THERE?

WHO NEEDS ME? IT'S JOHN KELLY, JACK.

I CALLED YOUR PRECINCT. THEY SAID YOU WERE OFF.

FIGURED MAYBE YOU'D FIND ME HERE, HUH? EXCELLENT POLICE WORK.

CAN I OFFER YOU A LITTLE LIQUOR DRINK? SURE.

COME ON IN.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR, JOHN?

YOU WANT TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR FATHER?

I'D LIKE THAT.

WELL, HE MIGHT HAVE MADE CHIEF OF DETECTIVES IF HE HADN'T GOT SHOT.

YOU WANNA KNOW WHY? BECAUSE HE KNEW THE JOB.

NOT THE MANUAL, THE JOB. SIT DOWN.

BACK THEN, WE HAD AN IRISH DEPARTMENT. WE HAD SOME GUINEAS.

WE HAD JEWS. WE HAD A FEW NIGGERS, BUT IT WAS AN IRISH DEPARTMENT.

AND THIS CITY WAS LIVEABLE. HARLEM, BEFORE THE '64 RIOTS, YOU COULD WALK DOWN THE STREET.

YOU COULD DO YOUR SHOPPING. YOU COULD TALK TO THE SPADES LIKE PEOPLE.

THEY EVEN TREATED EACH OTHER LIKE HUMAN BEINGS.

YOU'RE A YOUNG GUY, KELLY. YOU GREW UP IN A DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT...

IN A DIFFERENT CITY.

YOU PROBABLY THINK I'M A RACIST.

I THINK YOU'RE A LOUSY BARTENDER.

[ SCOFFS ] I'M TRYING TO PAINT A PICTURE FOR YOU OF THIS CITY,

THE DEPARTMENT YOUR OLD MAN WAS PART OF.

HE, UH‐‐ HE SET A STANDARD FOR HIMSELF AND FOR THE PEOPLE ON THE STREET.

EVERY SCUMBAG CRIMINAL OUT THERE KNEW THERE WAS A LINE.

AND IF HE CROSSED IT, HE WAS IN TROUBLE. NOT TOO MANY CROSSED IT.

AND IF THEY DID, THEY NEVER DID IT TWICE.

HOW DID IT FEEL LIVING IN THE PERFECT SOCIETY?

IT'S ALL RIGHT. JOKE AROUND.

BUT IF SOME SKELL RAPED AN OLD LADY, HE MIGHT FIND HIMSELF THROWN OFF A ROOF.

THAT WAS CALLED OFFICER DISCRETION BACK THEN.

MY OLD MAN EVER THROW ANYBODY OFF A BUILDING?

I WOULDN'T KNOW. THAT'S NOT THE POINT THAT I'M TRYING TO MAKE.

WHAT WAS IT LIKE TO WORK WITH HIM?

I ONLY SAW HIM AT THE CRIME SCENES. WE NEVER WORKED ONE‐ON‐ONE.

I WAS ON PATROL. HE WAS A DETECTIVE.

BUT EVERYBODY KNEW WHAT KIND OF A GUY HE WAS.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE BUDDIES.

I SAID I KNEW HIM. WE ALL KNEW HIM.

WE KNEW WE COULD COUNT ON EACH OTHER.

[ SIGHS ] I GOT A PROBLEM, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I THINK YOU DID SOMETHING TO THE OLD MAN UPSTAIRS.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? THAT OLD GUY FELL. THAT WAS AN ACCIDENT.

NAILS WERE PULLED, FRESH SCREWDRIVER MARKS.

YOUR PRINTS WERE ALL OVER THAT BANISTER. THAT'S A MAKABLE CASE.

YOU'RE A BETTER DETECTIVE THAN THAT.

IF THEY LIFTED ONE PRINT OFF THAT BANISTER, THEY LIFTED 50.

OTHER TENANTS DESCRIBED A PATTERN OF HARASSMENT.

THE OLD MAN IS DEAD. WHAT AM I GONNA DO ABOUT THIS?

YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT YOU CAN DO? HAVE ANOTHER DRINK, GO HOME AND PUT IT OUT OF YOUR MIND.

I CAN'T DO THAT. I KNOW WHAT I KNOW.

WHAT IS THIS, KELLY? IS THIS A SHAKEDOWN? YOU WANT MONEY TO MAKE THIS GO AWAY?

‐ YOU OFFERING ME MONEY? ‐ FOR WHAT? I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WRONG!

‐ WHAT KIND OF MONEY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? ‐ HOW MUCH IS IT WORTH TO YOU?

WELL, I THINK I CAN SEE MY WAY CLEAR...

TO A THOUSAND DOLLARS, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

‐ YOU DID IT, DIDN'T YA? ‐ I DID NOTHIN'! THE OLD MAN FELL!

NOBODY FEELS WORSE ABOUT IT THAN I DO!

YOU DIDN'T DO IT, BUT YOU'RE OFFERING ME A THOUSAND DOLLARS.

YOU CAN MAKE THIS THING GO AWAY.

I CAN'T CHANGE WHAT HAPPENED. I WISH I COULD.

‐ IT MAKES ME... SICK. IT KEEPS ME AWAKE. ‐ IT SHOULD.

NO! YOU DON'T GET TO POINT YOUR FINGER AT ME!

YOU DON'T GET TO JUDGE ANOTHER MAN'S LIFE, OR WHAT HE HAD TO DO!

‐ WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PUSHING AN OLD MAN THROUGH A RAILING. ‐ HE WASN'T PUSHED! HE FELL!

‐ YOU LOOSENED IT. ‐ I‐I DO WHAT I HAVE TO DO TO MAKE A LIFE!

AND AN OLD MAN HAD TO DIE OVER IT? JACK, COME ON.

THIS IS JOHN KELLY'S SON. MAKE ME UNDERSTAND.

LOOK, I'M 56 YEARS OLD! NOBODY'S LOOKING OUT FOR ME!

THESE PEOPLE HERE, THEY GIVE ME $600 UNDER THE TABLE AND A PLACE TO STAY!

‐ THAT DOESN'T LET YOU OFF THE HOOK. ‐ WHAT DO YOU WANT, 2,500?

‐ I WANT YOU TO TELL ME YOU DID IT. ‐ ALL RIGHT!

I PULLED NAILS! I LOOSENED THE BANISTER!

AND IF IT EVER GETS BACK TO ME, I'LL DENY I EVER SAID IT.

AH, NOBODY WANTED THE OLD GUY TO DIE.

NOBODY‐‐ NOBODY FEELS WORSE ABOUT IT THAN ME.

ARE WE ALL RIGHT NOW?

YEAH.

GIVE ME A DAY TO GET THE MONEY.

FORGET THE MONEY. IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY.

I KNOW THIS IS A LOT FOR YOU TO BURY,

BUT IN MY HEART I KNOW I WOULD DO THE SAME THING FOR YOU, JOHN KELLY'S SON.

YOUR HAND, JOHN?

THAT'S IT.

YOU DID THE RIGHT THING. YOUR OLD MAN WOULD BE PROUD OF YA.

HE WOULD'VE UNDERSTOOD. I THINK HE WOULD.

I KNOW HE WOULD.

I KNOW HE WOULD!

[ TRAFFIC NOISE ]

[ MAN CHATTERING IN HALLWAY ]

HOW'D YOU DO?

[ TAPE REWINDING ] GOT HIM. TAKE ME HOME BEFORE I PUKE.

[ SIREN CHIRPING ]

HEY, KELLY! WHEN ARE YOU GOIN' OVER TO THESE GUYS?

WHEN ARE YOU GONNA FIND YOUR RIGHT HOME AT I. A. D.?

AT LEAST THEY ADMIT THEY'RE SNITCHES. THEY DON'T SIT AND DRINK WITH YOU...

AND THEN RAT ON YOU!

YOU'RE A LOUSY STOOL PIGEON, A CONVENT SNITCH,

AND YOU PISSED ALL OVER YOUR FATHER'S GRAVESTONE!

DON'T MENTION MY FATHER'S NAME AGAIN, YOU MURDERING SON OF A BITCH.

‐ THIS WOULD MAKE HIM SICK! ‐ SHUT UP, HANLAN.

GET HIM UPSTAIRS. [ GRUNTING ]

EVERYBODY IN THE DEPARTMENT'S GOTTA KNOW...

WHAT A PISSY LITTLE SCHOOLGIRL YOU ARE!

GET UP THOSE STAIRS, HANLAN. YOU'RE MAKING A FOOL OF YOURSELF.

WE'LL SEE WHO'S THE FOOL, KELLY!

I GOTTA SEE SOME PAPERWORK.

ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.

ALPHONSE GIARDELLA?

I'M JAMES CRAIG. THIS IS LAURA MICHAELS.

MR. CRAIG, MS. MICHAELS.

I ARRANGED FOR SOME REFRESHMENTS.

OYSTERS. VERY SENSUAL. [ SLURPING ]

[ SMACKING LIPS ] YOU SPILLED SOME JUICE ON YOUR SHIRT.

OH. I'M NUTS.

I KNEW I SHOULD'VE HAD THE FRIED CALAMARI. I'M SORRY.

SIT DOWN. SIT DOWN.

I'LL BE RIGHT WITH YOU. I JUST GOTTA MAKE A QUICK CHANGE.

PUNKS, WEAKLINGS, ASS BANDITS‐‐ THEY ALL WORSHIP SUCCESS.

BUT SOMETHING ELSE, MR. CRAIG‐‐ THEY ROOT FOR FAILURE.

FIGURE IT OUT, HUH? I GUESS YOU KNOW.

YOU GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE ON YOUR OWN SIDE ROOTING FOR YOU.

‐ WELL, I'M GONNA WIN MY CASES. ‐ HE'S GOT A "SCREW YOU" ATTITUDE,

YOUR BOSS, JUST LIKE ME.

I WANT YOU TO START WITH YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE DOMINICAN, AGOSTO REYES.

I DON'T HAVE RELATIONSHIPS WITH KNUCKLE BOUNCERS.

I DEALT SOME SMACK TO THE 'YOM IS ALL.

HE USED MAYBE FOUR KEYS A MONTH, MAYBE THREE, FOUR PERCENT OF MY PIE.

HE EVER MENTIONED HIS DEALINGS WITH JESUS AND RIGOBERTO COLON TO YOU?

ONE MONTH HE PICKS UP HIS FOUR KEYS, COMES BACK FOUR DAYS LATER.

I SAY, "NICE WORK, REYES. QUICK TURNAROUND."

REYES TELLS ME IT'S NOT LIKE THAT AT ALL.

HE SAYS HE FRONTED THESE COLON BROTHERS THE WHOLE FOUR KEYS,

AND THEY COME BACK WITH A STORY ABOUT BEING RIPPED OFF.

AT THIS POINT AGOSTO REYES TELLS ME‐‐

HE BECOMES VERY INDIGNANT ON MY BEHALF.

HE SAYS, "I WHACKED BOTH THOSE SONS OF BITCHES."

THOSE WERE HIS EXACT WORDS, "I WHACKED BOTH THE SONS OF BITCHES"?

YEAH, YEAH, HIS EXACT WORDS. [ SLURPING ]

[ CRAIG ] WHAT WAS YOUR RESPONSE?

WHAT DO I CARE ABOUT HIS STORY?

HE GETS TAKEN OFF, THAT'S HIS PROBLEM.

HE WHACKS THE COLON BROTHERS, THAT'S HIS PROBLEM.

OKAY, MR. GIARDELLA, THAT'S GOING TO BE VERY HELPFUL.

YOU KNOW, AGOSTO REYES... [ CLEARS THROAT ] WAS ONLY ONE OF MY PEOPLE.

I GOT A LOT OF OTHERS. YOU GOT ABOUT HALF OF 'EM IN YOUR JAIL.

THOSE CASES BELONG TO OTHER PROSECUTORS, OTHER JURISDICTION.

YEAH, BUT I LIKE WORKING WITH YOU.

I FEEL VERY COMFORTABLE AND AT MY EASE.

NOT TO MENTION YOU'RE THE MOST ATTRACTIVE D. A. I'VE SEEN IN MY LIFE.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S TRUST THAT COMES WITH A CONTINUAL RELATIONSHIP.

MAYBE I COULD TELL THE U. S. ATTORNEY IT'S MY PREFERENCE...

TO DEAL WITH YOU PEOPLE. [ WINE POURING ]

BUT WHAT I KNOW, YOU COULD BE IN A POSITION HERE, MR. CRAIG.

[ CAR HORN HONKING ]

[ PHONES RINGING, PEOPLE CHATTERING ]

‐ HEY. ‐ HEY.

HEY, UH‐‐ I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU DID, DETECTIVE.

‐ NO PROBLEM, MARTINEZ. ‐ NAH, I KNOW WHAT YOU DID FOR ME.

WHAT'S GOIN' ON WITH YOUR BROTHER?

I CAN'T TALK TO YOU ABOUT THAT.

COME HERE. YOU CAN TALK TO ME.

[ PHONE RINGING ]

HE'S GOT, UH, A SUBSTANCE ABUSE PROBLEM.

WHAT KIND? NARCOTICS, YOU KNOW.

HEROIN.

HE'S MY LITTLE BROTHER. I'M SUPPOSED TO TAKE CARE OF HIM,

AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

[ PHONE RINGING ]

WHEN WE WERE KIDS, WE WERE AT YANKEE STADIUM...

THE DAY REGGIE HIT THREE HOME RUNS IN THE SAME GAME.

DID YOU KNOW MARTINEZ IS REGGIE JACKSON'S MIDDLE NAME? NO.

WE CUT UP A PIECE OF GRASS.

HE'S STILL GOT THAT. HE TAKES CARE OF IT.

I KNOW HE'S NOT GONE. THE DOPE HASN'T EATEN HIM UP YET.

DON'T BE AFRAID TO REACH OUT TO HIM.

YOU READ ALL THAT STUFF ABOUT TOUGH LOVE, LETTING 'EM HIT ROCK BOTTOM?

DON'T BE AFRAID TO REACH OUT TO HIM.

OKAY? OKAY.

I WISH I COULD BE MORE HELPFUL THAN THAT.

YOU HELPED ME PLENTY, DETECTIVE.

REALLY.

THANKS AGAIN.

[ PEOPLE CHATTERING ] [ PHONES RINGING ]

HEY, JOHN, COULD I TALK TO YOU FOR A MINUTE?

SURE.

THIS THING WITH THE, UH, BAD COP,

UH, IT'S, UH, IT'S‐IT'S NOT EXACTLY SITTIN' RIGHT.

‐ LET'S TALK ABOUT IT. ‐ I MEAN, NOT THAT HE SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN BROUGHT IN,

BUT, UH, I MEAN, WE'RE NOT I. A. D., YOU KNOW? [ CHUCKLING ]

ANYWAY, UM,

IF YOU'D LIKE TO SAY SOMETHING THAT MIGHT HELP, I WANNA LISTEN.

YOU'LL LISTEN, MEDAVOY, HUH? YOU COME UP, CLEARING YOUR THROAT...

LIKE A SENATOR, SAYING YOU'LL LISTEN?

HE DOESN'T HAVE TO SAY DICK TO YOU. ANDY.

THE COP KELLY PUT AWAY KILLED AN 80‐YEAR‐OLD MAN.

HE LET HIM FALL THROUGH A BALCONY AND BREAK HIS NECK. HE CROAKED ANOTHER LADY,

SUFFOCATED HER WITH GAS FOR MONEY TO CLEAR OUT AN APARTMENT BUILDING.

I SAID I WANTED TO LISTEN! I WANTED TO LISTEN.

KELLY STOOD IN FOR A KID WITH TWO YEARS ON THE JOB WHO WAS GONNA HAVE TO WEAR A WIRE,

AND THAT WOULD'VE PUT THAT KID ON THE RAT SQUAD.

KELLY DID THE RIGHT THING.

AND IF YOU OR ANY OTHER ONE OF YOU GUYS GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT,

YOU CAN SEE ME IN THE PARKING LOT RIGHT NOW.

‐ YOU TOOK ME ALL WRONG! ‐ [ KELLY ] ANDY, THAT'S ENOUGH.

YOU NEVER GIVE ME A CHANCE TO‐TO‐‐ TO EXPLAIN WHAT I'M SAYING.

MEDAVOY, HOLD IT.

I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU WERE TRYING TO SAY, OKAY, AND I APPRECIATE THE OFFER.

HOW ABOUT PIZZA AND BEER ANY NIGHT THIS WEEK? HOW ABOUT TOMORROW NIGHT?

MY KID'S GOT A PIANO RECITAL TONIGHT. FINE.

PASS THE WORD‐‐ I'M BUYING. ANYBODY WHO WANTS TO COME CAN COME. OKAY?

FAIR ENOUGH.

[ PEOPLE CHATTERING ]

‐ COME ON. ‐ [ SIREN WAILING ]

HEY, MARTINEZ.

HEY, SARGE. [ PHONE RINGING ]

THERE'S A KID DOWNSTAIRS, GOT PINCHED IN A DRUG BUST.

HE SAYS HE'S YOUR BROTHER.

I GUESS YOU GOTTA DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO, HUH, SARGE?

HE WASN'T HOLDING. IT'S A LOITERING BEEF.

I COULD WALK HIM OUT THE BACK DOOR.

I'LL HOLD HIM TILL THE SHIFT'S OVER. I'LL PICK HIM UP.

THANKS, SARGE.

WHAT'S THIS? WHAT YOU STOPPIN' HERE FOR?

I WANNA TALK TO YOU ABOUT ROBERTO.

WELL, THIS IS A HOSPITAL. DID SOMETHING HAPPEN TO HIM? IS HE HURT?

WHAT'S HAPPENING? WHAT'S GOING ON? HE'S SICK, PAPI.

HE'S IN THE CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY UNIT.

WHAT THE HELL IS A CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY UNIT?

IT'S WHERE THEY HELP PEOPLE ADDICTED TO DRUGS.

WELL, YOU GO IN. PAPI.

LOOK, I DON'T LIKE JUNKIES, I DON'T WANNA SEE A JUNKIE‐‐

ROBERTO IS SICK, PAPI, AND HE NEEDS US!

NO, NO, HE'S A JUNKIE. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?

AND JUNKIES DON'T GET BETTER. YOU GOT IT?

OKAY, PAPI, I'LL GO IN. YEAH, YOU GO IN.

I'LL SEE HIM. YEAH, YOU'LL SEE HIM.

YOU CAN WAIT HERE, OKAY? WHEN I COME BACK OUT, THEN WE CAN DRIVE AWAY.

YEAH, OKAY. OKAY?

DAMN!

JAMES!

JAMES, WAIT.

WE'LL DO IT TOGETHER, OKAY? IT'S BETTER.

OKAY.

[ BLOWING ]

HOW ARE THEY TREATIN' THE KID? [ SIREN WAILING ]

IT'S GONNA BE OKAY. THAT'S GOOD.

I'M THINKING, KELLY‐‐

I'M THINKING MAYBE THERE'S BEEN A LITTLE PROGRESS IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AFTER ALL.

I REMEMBER 15 YEARS AGO A ROOKIE COP WALKS INTO A D. O. A. SCENE,

SEES HIS PARTNER TAKING MONEY OFF A DEAD PERSON AND PUTTING IT INTO HIS POCKET.

AND FOR GIVING HIM UP, THIS ROOKIE IS HUNG OUT TO DRY BY EVERY COP ON THE JOB.

YOU CAN SEE HOW NICE IT WAS FOR ME...

WATCHING YOU BUST YOUR ASS FOR THAT KID.

I WISH IT COULD HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT FOR YOU, KEVIN.

YOU STILL GO TO THE EMERALD SOCIETY? NO.

NO, I CAN'T DRINK LIKE THAT ANYMORE. I DON'T GO.

NO ONE WILL TALK TO ME.

THEY'RE ALL AFRAID THEY'LL GET DRUNK, CONFESS THEIR SINS AND I'LL ARREST THEM.

YOU KNOW, I DON'T CARE ABOUT NO ONE TALKING TO ME.

I KNEW THAT WOULD HAPPEN WHEN I BUSTED THAT COP.

BUT I ALWAYS WANTED TO PLAY IN THE EMERALD SOCIETY PIPER'S BAND,

AND NOT ONE OF THOSE BASTARDS WILL RECOMMEND ME.

I'M THE BEST PIPER IN THE DEPARTMENT, AND NOBODY KNOWS IT...

EXCEPT A BUNCH OF CROAKERS.

YOU KNOW WHAT "PIOBRACHT" IS, KELLY? NO.

WELL, LISTEN.

THIS IS CALLED "PIOBRACHT."
