PREVIOUSLY ON "NYPD BLUE"...

IT'S TIME TO GO, JOHN.
I'LL DRIVE YOU HOME.

FIRST OF ALL,
I SAY WHEN IT'S TIME TO GO.

SECOND OF ALL,
GIVE ME MY KEYS.

I WANT MY KEYS.

COME ON, JOHN, GET UP.

GET OFF OF ME.

GIVE ME THOSE DAMN KEYS!

YOU'RE IN NO CONDITION
TO DRIVE, JOHN.

YOU WANT TO STAY HERE AND KEEP
MAKING AN ASS OUT OF YOURSELF,

GET HOME BY CAB.

YOU WANT TO BE HERE?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I'M TALKING ABOUT YOU COMING
IN HUNG OVER,

HITTING THE BARS AT NIGHT,
SLEEPING AROUND,

AND NEARLY GETTING
YOUR PARTNER KILLED.

I FIND YOU GOING OUT
ON A JAG AT NIGHT,

I'M TRANSFERRING YOU
OUT OF MY SQUAD.

DID YOU PUT THROUGH THE REQUEST
FOR REASSIGNMENT?

I DIDN'T GET A CHANCE.

COULD I ASK IF MAYBE
YOU'D HOLD OFF?

I'D MAKE EVERY EFFORT
NOT TO BEHAVE

THE WAY I'VE BEEN BEHAVING.

WE'LL TRY IT.

THANK YOU.

WHAT DO WE GOT?

STABBED IN THE CHEST.

WHO'S THAT?

WIFE AND KIDS.

HAVE SOMEONE TAKE 'EM BACK
TO THE HOUSE.

I'M AT A STOP.
I HEAR SCREAMING.

I TURN AROUND, BUT I CAN'T SEE
WHAT'S HAPPENING.

THE GUY GOES OUT
THE REAR DOOR.

SOMEONE SAYS, "THAT'S HIM."

DID YOU GET A LOOK AT HIM?
RUNNING AWAY.

HAD ON A WHITE SWEATSHIRT
WITH THE HOOD UP.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE.

WHITE, BLACK ‐‐
WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?

SPANISH DUDE
WITH A GOLD CROSS EARRING.

YOU'RE ALREADY ON THE BUS
WHEN THE GUY GETS ON?
YEAH.

WHAT DOES HE DO?

SITS DOWN ACROSS
FROM THE DEAD GUY.

SEEM LIKE THEY KNOW
EACH OTHER?
NO.

DID THEY SAY ANYTHING
TO EACH OTHER?
NOT THAT I SAW.

SO THIS GUY, FOR NO REASON,

HE JUST GETS UP AND STABS HIM
IN THE CHEST?

THEY WAS EYEBALLIN'.

THAT'S IT?

THE GUY GETS ON,
COMES TO THE BACK OF THE BUS,

CHECKS EVERYBODY OUT.

LOOKS AT ME, RIGHT?

I AIN'T NO PUNK, AND I AIN'T
GOTTA PROVE NOTHIN' TO NOBODY.

LOOKS AT THIS GUY.

HE LOOKS BACK AT HIM,
EVEN WITH ‐‐

HE GOT HIS WIFE
AND HIS KIDS WITH HIM.

HE'S STARING HIM DOWN.

NEXT THING I KNOW,
THE GUY STICKS HIM.

DEAD GUY'S EYES GET ALL BIG.

WIFE'S SCREAMING, KIDS CRYING.

DAMN, MAN.

HE'D HAVE JUST LOOKED AWAY, NONE
OF THAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED.

ALL RIGHT, IF WE NEED YOU TO
I. D. ANYBODY,

WE'LL LET YOU KNOW.

OFFICER.
MAN, HE'D BE HOME NOW.

YEAH.

[ SIGHS ]

DAMN.

MY DAUGHTER'S LOOKING
TO BUY A HOUSE.

OH, YEAH?

IN MASSAPEQUA.

OH, THAT'S NICE.

ON A CUL‐DE‐SAC.

THAT'S GOOD, A CUL‐DE‐SAC.

YEAH, WELL,
IT'S GOOD IF I CAN SWING IT.

THAT'S GOTTA BE A BIG NUMBER,
RIGHT?

YEAH, WHICH MEANS I GOTTA FIND
SOMETHING PART TIME.

IF YOU HEAR OF ANYTHING ‐‐

WELL, THIS GUY TALKED TO ME

ABOUT WORKING THE DOOR
AT HIS BAR.

YOU GONNA DO IT?

NO, I'M NOT.
MORNING, JOHN.

TALK TO HIM ABOUT ME.

GREG, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S
SOMETHING YOU WANT TO DO.

OF COURSE I WANT TO DO IT.
IT'S PERFECT.

YEAH, BUT IT TAKES A CERTAIN
[CLEARS THROAT] DISPOSITION.

WHAT, YOU DON'T THINK I CAN TAKE
CARE OF MYSELF?

THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M SAYING.

HEY, ANDY,
CAN I TAKE CARE OF MYSELF?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS.

I CAN HANDLE MYSELF.

[ SIGHS ]

WE SHOULD PROBABLY CANVASS
THE AREA AROUND HAUSER STREET

WHERE THE GUY GOT ON.

[ SIGHS ]

YOU ALL RIGHT?

FAMILY GETS ON A BUS
TOGETHER.

BEFORE THEY GET TO THEIR STOP,

THE WHOLE WORLD GOES
IN THE TOILET.

YEAH, THIS IS A TOUGH ONE.

I THINK WE SHOULD ALSO CHECK
WITH TRANSIT,

SEE IF THERE'S ANY PATTERNS
HAPPENING ON BUSES.

HEY, JOHN, I'M NOT THERE YET,
OKAY?

NOT WHERE?

NOT TO THE POINT
OF MAKING CHECKLISTS.

IT'S AN INVESTIGATION.
I KNOW IT'S AN INVESTIGATION.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME
IT'S AN INVESTIGATION.

I'M AT THIS A LONG TIME.

WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM, ANDY?

THE PROBLEM IS ‐‐

THE PROBLEM IS THAT'S THERE'S
TWO LITTLE KIDS AND A WIFE

THAT GOT LEFT.

THAT'S A HOMICIDE FOR YOU.

OH, YEAH, THAT'S GOOD.

YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I WANT
TO HEAR RIGHT NOW.

SOME SLOB LIKE ME
WHO GETS SNUFFED OUT

FOR WHAT I PROMISE YOU
IS NO REASON AT ALL,

AND THOSE POOR PEOPLE THAT HE
WAS LOOKIN' AFTER,

THEY GOT TO SPEND THE REST
OF THEIR LIVES

DIGGING THEMSELVES
OUT OF SOME HOLE.

I DON'T NEED YOU TO POINT OUT
THE CONSEQUENCES

OF SOMEONE GETTING KILLED.

I GET THAT IT'S MORE

THAN ONE LESS SETTING
AT THE DINNER TABLE.

YOU WANT TO BE A COMEDIAN,
BE A COMEDIAN OUT THERE.

[ SIGHS ]
LET'S GO SEE THE BOSS.

THEY DUMPED
THE METRO CARD READER.

WE'RE WAITING
FOR THE RESULTS.

WHAT WE GOT GOING IS THAT
THE BUS DRIVER I. D.'d THE PERP

BEING AMONG THE LAST TEN OR
EIGHT PASSENGERS TO GET ON.

HOW MUCH OF A DESCRIPTION
DO WE HAVE?

IT'S A MALE HISPANIC,
MID TO LATE 20s.

CLEAN‐SHAVEN,
GOLD CROSS IN HIS RIGHT EAR.

ANY CHANCE
HE KNEW THE VICTIM?

NOT WHAT WE'RE GETTING.

SO YOU'RE GETTING
IT WAS A STARE DOWN.
RIGHT.

NO PRIOR ACQUAINTANCE
WITH THE VICTIM OR HIS WIFE?

WE'RE GONNA INTERVIEW THE WIFE,
SEE WHAT SHE SAYS.

GIVE US A MINUTE,
WILL YOU, JOHN?

HOW'S IT WORKING OUT
WITH YOU TWO?

GOOD.

PROBLEMS ARE MANAGEABLE?

YEAH.

ANY AFTEREFFECTS
FROM THE SHOOTING?

I CAN'T EVEN FEEL IT
ANYMORE.

I'M NOT JUST TALKING
ABOUT PHYSICAL.

NOTHING'S GOING ON OTHERWISE.

SOMETIMES IT SINKS IN
AFTERWARDS.

I'M GOOD...BOSS.

THANKS, THOUGH.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

THIS HAS BEEN
SOME HORRIFIC DAY.

GETTING ROBBED ISN'T FUN.

THERE ARE THINGS
THEY COULD HAVE TAKEN

THAT I WOULDN'T HAVE
REACTED TO.

EVEN THOUGH IT IS A STORE,

AND I AM IN THE BUSINESS
OF SELLING THESE THINGS,

I GET ATTACHED.

THAT TEA SERVICE ‐‐ I FEEL LIKE
PART OF ME IS MISSING.

I GOT A TEA SERVICE
IN LONDON.

ALL IT'S MISSING
IS THE CREAMER.

SILVER?

MINTON CHINA.

WHAT PATTERN?

AUTUMN FESTIVAL.

I LOVE AUTUMN FESTIVAL.

WE'RE READY FOR YOU,
MR. PROSSER.

NICE CHATTING WITH YOU.

UH, CAN I GET YOU SOMETHING?

UH, COFFEE, WATER?

COFFEE WOULD BE WONDERFUL.

CREAM AND SUGAR.

HOW MUCH INVENTORY'S MISSING,
MR. PROSSER?

THERE ARE PIECES WORTH
UPWARDS OF $300,000.

BETWEEN THE TILT‐TOP TABLE
WHICH WAS HEPPLEWHITE,

THE SLIPPERED CHAIR,
THE TEA SERVICE,

THE QUEEN ANNE MIRROR,

WHOEVER DID THIS KNEW
WHAT THEY WERE TAKING.

HOW'D THEY BREAK IN?

THEY PUNCHED OUT THE LOCK
ON THE FREIGHT ELEVATOR.

CAME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT,
NO ONE AROUND.

THEY HAD ALL THE TIME
IN THE WORLD.

HOW'D THEY GET
IN THE BUILDING?

BUILDING SECURITY IS A JOKE.

WE COMPLAIN ENDLESSLY,
BUT NOTHING EVER CHANGES.

AND WHY SHOULD IT?

THEY GET THEIR RENT FIRST
OF THE MONTH NO MATTER WHAT.

WE'RE GONNA WANT A LIST OF PAST
AND PRESENT EMPLOYEES.

FINE, NO PROBLEM.

ONE THING I WILL SAY,
HOWEVER,

IS THAT I AM AN EXCELLENT
JUDGE OF CHARACTER.

I DON'T BELIEVE ANYONE I HIRED
WOULD HAVE DONE THIS.

WELL, IT'S A PLACE TO START.

OF COURSE.

OH, THANK YOU.

Sipowicz:
ALL RIGHT, THANKS.

JOHN, WHY DON'T YOU GIVE US
A HAND HERE?

UH...

MAYBE JOHN CAN SHOW THE KIDS THE
FISH WHILE WE TALK FOR A MINUTE,

IF THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

YEAH, GO WITH THE MAN.

GO LOOK AT THE FISH, HONEY.

THERE'S SOME QUESTIONS WE HAVE
TO ASK, MRS. PEREZ.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]
PLEASE DON'T TAKE OFFENSE.

DID YOUR HUSBAND HAVE ANY
ASSOCIATION WITH GANG MEMBERS,

DRUG DEALERS,
ANYTHING LIKE THAT?

NOTHING.

MANNY WORKED SECURITY AT THE
KING PLAZA SHOPPING CENTER ‐‐

NEVER MIXED UP IN NOTHING.

CAN YOU TELL US ANYTHING MORE
ABOUT THE GUY THAT ATTACKED HIM?

[ SIGHS ]

JUST THAT HE WAS SOMEBODY
TO STAY AWAY FROM.

I COULD SEE
THAT HE WAS ANGRY.

MAYBE HE WAS ON DOPE.

I SEE SOMEBODY LIKE THAT,

I DON'T HAVE NOTHING
TO DO WITH HIM.

BUT MANNY WAS MANNY, THOUGH.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

HE DON'T LET NOTHING GO.

SO HE STARED AT MANNY.
MANNY STARED BACK.

NO, HE CHECKED ME OUT FIRST,

AND THEN MANNY LOOKED AT HIM,

AND HE LOOKED AT MANNY,

AND IF I HADN'T GOT ALL BUSY
WITH THE KIDS,

I WOULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING
TO MANNY.

I WOULD HAVE MADE HIM STOP.

HOW DOES THAT LEAVE YOU
AS FAR AS EXPENSES GO?

LIKE WHAT?

RENT, UTILITIES, GROCERIES.

WE DIDN'T HAVE
NO LIFE INSURANCE.

I GOT A JOB AT THE DRUG STORE,

BUT THE BENEFITS,
THEY AIN'T KICKED IN YET.

WHAT ABOUT MANNY'S JOB?
THAT DIDN'T LEAVE BENEFITS?

I DON'T KNOW.
I GOTTA TALK TO THEM.

MAKE SURE YOU TALK
TO THEM TODAY.

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT,
TAKE IT EASY!

I'M SORRY.

I, UH, I GOT A SISTER.

SHE LIVE IN PEEKSKILL,

AND SHE WANT ME TO GO MOVE UP
THERE WITH HER.

THE KIDS WOULD HAVE
THEIR COUSIN.

YOU SHOULD DO THAT.

YOU SHOULD MOVE UP THERE
WITH HER.

YOU TAKING CARE
OF YOUR MOM, HMM?

THAT'S GOOD.
TAKE CARE OF HER.

YOU EVER WORK AS A BOUNCER,
GREG?

MANY TIMES.

WELL, I GOTTA BE HONEST
WITH YOU, GREG,

AND I DON'T MEAN THIS TO BE
DISRESPECTFUL TO YOUR ABILITIES,

BUT I USUALLY LIKE
A BIGGER MAN AT THE DOOR.

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING.

DURING MY YEARS
IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT,

I'VE TAKEN DOWN MY SHARE
OF HEAVYWEIGHTS.

WELL, WHENEVER POSSIBLE,
THE IDEA IS TO AVOID THE FIGHT.

WELL, I CAN DO THAT, TOO.

I'M SURE YOU UNDERSTAND
THE TREMENDOUS LIABILITY

IF PEOPLE GET INJURED.

OF COURSE I CAN.

[ SIGHS ]

I THINK A LOT OF YOUR PARTNER,

AND I TAKE THIS RECOMMENDATION
SERIOUSLY,

BUT I JUST NEED TO FEEL
THAT IF A SITUATION ARISES,

YOU CAN DIFFUSE IT WITHOUT
RESORTING TO PHYSICAL FORCE.

[ SIGHS ]

MR. McGOWAN, I'VE BEEN A POLICE
OFFICER FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS.

I'VE ENCOUNTERED ALL KINDS OF
PEOPLE, ALL KINDS OF SITUATIONS.

THE FACT THAT I HAVE
THE RECORD THAT I HAVE,

THE FACT THAT I'M SITTING HERE
RIGHT NOW,

MEANS THAT I KNOW
HOW TO DO JUST THAT.

"FORCED ENTRY" WOULD BE
THE CORRECT NOMENCLATURE?

WHAT COULD YOU TELL US ABOUT
ISMET VUKATCH?

OH, REALLY VERY LITTLE.
HE USED TO WORK HERE.

HE LEFT TO TAKE ANOTHER JOB.

DID HE LEAVE ON GOOD TERMS,
BAD TERMS?

OH, TOTALLY GOOD TERMS.

HIS UNCLE GOT HIM A JOB

TAKING CARE OF A SMALL
APARTMENT BUILDING,

WHICH IS THE FIELD A LOT
OF ALBANIANS GRAVITATE TOWARDS,

AND THAT WAS THAT.

I HOPE YOU'RE NOT THINKING
OF IZZY AS A SUSPECT.

IT TURNS OUT HE HAS
SOME PRIOR ARRESTS.

ANYTHING OTHER THAN YOUTHFUL
INDISCRETION?

BURGLARY.

I'D BE VERY SURPRISED
IF HE WERE INVOLVED IN THIS.

WE'RE GONNA WANT TO SEE WHATEVER
RECORDS YOU HAVE ON HIM.

OH, IT WOULD BE TOTALLY
OUT OF CHARACTER

FOR HIM TO DO SOMETHING
LIKE THIS.

WE'LL HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH
HIM, CROSS HIM OFF THE LIST.

I'VE HEARD THAT IF YOU DON'T
SOLVE A CASE

WITHIN THE FIRST 48 HOURS,

YOU MORE OR LESS GIVE UP
ON SOLVING IT.

[ SIGHS ] THESE ARE SOME
BIG‐TICKET ITEMS, MR. PROSSER.

I THINK WE'LL GIVE IT A LITTLE
LONGER THAN THAT.

[ SIGHS ]
OH, THANK YOU.

[ SIGHS ]

I APPRECIATE THAT.

IF YOU COULD JUST PULL
THOSE RECORDS.

I ALSO HAVE SOMETHING FOR JOHN
WHO WORKS WITH YOU.

I WONDER,
COULD YOU GIVE IT TO HIM?

SURE.

I'D LIKE TO WRAP IT,
THOUGH.

THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT
RECEIVING AN UNWRAPPED PRESENT

THAT'S DESPERATELY SAD IN A WAY,
DON'T YOU THINK?

METRO CARD INFO CAME BACK.

ANYTHING?

WELL, FIVE OF THE TEN WERE
BOUGHT WITH CREDIT CARDS.

I FIGURE THAT'S NOT LIKELY
OUR GUY.
RIGHT.

THESE ARE THE OTHER FIVE.

OF THOSE FIVE, LET'S SEE,

ONE GETS ON AT 86 AND LEX,
7:30 A. M.,

BACK AT THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE,
5:30 P. M.,

MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

WORKIN' STIFF.

ANOTHER ONE'S GRAND CENTRAL,
8:30, 9:00 A. M.,

AND BACK AT RECTOR STREET
6:30, 6:45 P. M.,

MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

ANOTHER ONE.

63rd DRIVE, REGAL PARK,
7:00 A. M..

137th STREET,

ANYWHERE BETWEEN 3:00 P. M.
AND 9:00 P. M.,

MONDAY, TUESDAY, THURSDAY.

CITY COLLEGE STUDENT.

AND THIS ONE ‐‐ 45th STREET,
SUNSET PARK,

8:00 A. M. MORE OR LESS,

AND THEN DeKALB AVENUE
10:30 A. M. EVERY MONDAY.

THAT'S A PAROLE CHECK‐IN.
YOU THINK?

THERE'S A PAROLE OFFICE
ON DeKALB AVENUE.

WHAT'S HE DOING THE REST
OF THE TIME?

ALL OVER THE PLACE.
HOW ABOUT AT NIGHT?

14th STREET, ESSEX STREET,
CANAL STREET.

[ CHUCKLES ]
AND HE STAYS UP LATE ‐‐

NOT THAT YOU CAN GO BY THAT,
NECESSARILY.

START CANVASSING
THOSE STATIONS.

GOT A ROBBERY OF A VIDEO STORE
AT KNIFE POINT.

VICTIM STABBED.

MEDAVOY AND JONES,
GO TO THE CRIME SCENE.

SIPOWICZ AND CLARK,
HEAD TO THE HOSPITAL.

YOU USED TO WORK
FOR GERARD PROSSER.

IS THAT RIGHT, ISMET?
YEAH.

ANY PROBLEMS?

NO, UH, NO PROBLEM.

HOW COME YOU LEFT?

I WORK IN BUILDING NOW
WITH MY UNCLE.

SOME STUFF GOT TAKEN OUT OF
MR. PROSSER'S STORE, ISMET.

I DON'T TAKE NOTHING.

A BUNCH OF OLD FURNITURE.

MAYBE YOU DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT IT WAS.

I DON'T KNOW NOTHING
ABOUT THIS.

IS THIS A NEW LEAF
YOU TURNED OVER?

WE KNOW YOU USED TO STEAL.

YOU WERE CONVICTED OF BURGLARY,
RECEIVING STOLEN PROPERTY.

WHEN I FIRST COME TO THIS
COUNTRY, I DO CRIMES.

I DON'T DO CRIMES NOW.

HERE'S WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN,
ISMET.

WE'RE GONNA GO WITH YOU
TO YOUR APARTMENT.

WE FIND ANY STOLEN GOODS,
YOU'RE GOIN' AWAY,

AND WITH YOUR RECORD,

WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT
SIX MONTHS OR A YEAR.

OKAY, I'M TELLING YOU,
I DID NOT TAKE ANYTHING.

GERARD'S GONNA MEET US
AT THE APARTMENT.

YOU'VE GOT ANYTHING OF HIS IN
THERE, NOW'S THE TIME TO SAY.

PICTURE FRAME.

YOU TOOK ‐‐
YOU TOOK A PICTURE FRAME?

IT'S FOR MY DAUGHTER.

[ SIGHS ]

NO ONE'S LOOKING TO HURT YOU
OVER A PICTURE FRAME, ISMET,

IF THAT'S ALL IT IS.

THAT'S IT.
IS JUST PICTURE FRAME.

HE SUSTAINED
A PUNCTURED LUNG

AND SIGNIFICANT INTERNAL
BLEEDING.

WE'RE STABILIZING HIM BEFORE
GOING INTO SURGERY.

WE'LL JUST BE A MINUTE
WITH HIM.

RIGHT THERE.

HOW YOU DOIN', ANDY?

I'VE BEEN BETTER.

I'M DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ,
ALSO ANDY.

THIS IS DETECTIVE CLARK.

WE'D LIKE TO TALK TO YOU
FOR A MINUTE IF WE COULD.

SURE.

HAD YOU EVER SEEN
THIS GUY BEFORE?

I DON'T KNOW.

HE LOOKED LIKE A LOT OF GUYS
THAT DON'T WORK FOR A LIVING.

WOULD YOU KNOW HIM
IF YOU SAW HIM AGAIN?
OH, YEAH.

TELL US HOW IT HAPPENED.

HE CAME IN.

HE MADE LIKE HE WAS
LOOKING AROUND,

THEN HE CAME UP THE COUNTER.

HE TOOK OUT A KNIFE.

HE TOLD ME TO GIVE HIM
WHAT WAS IN THE REGISTER.

I SAID, "NO."

HE STABBED ME.

WHAT, YOU AN OWNER
OF THE STORE?

YOU WOULD THINK,
WOULDN'T YOU?

$8.50 AN HOUR.

[ SIGHS ]

WE'RE HOPING YOU CAN GIVE US
A DESCRIPTION.

MAYBE YOU CAN WORK
WITH A SKETCH ARTIST.

TAKE A LOOK
IN MY JACKET POCKET.

WHAT AM I LOOKING FOR?

CELL PHONE.

I BANGED OFF A PICTURE OF HIM
AS I WAS GOING DOWN.

I DON'T KNOW
IF I GOT HIM OR NOT.

[ SIGHS ]

GIVE ME THAT.

THIS HIM?

YEAH, THAT'S HIM.

THAT'S GOOD WORK, MAN.

WE'RE GONNA NEED TO HOLD ON
TO THIS, ALL RIGHT?

WE'RE READY FOR HIM.

SEE YA.

TAKE CARE.

Sipowicz:
DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE IT UP.

WASN'T THINKING
ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES.

HE PROBABLY WASN'T
THINKING AT ALL.

HE JUST DIDN'T WANT
TO GIVE IT UP.

MALE, HISPANIC,
GOLD CROSS EARRING,

KNIFE USED IN BOTH INCIDENTS.

YOU GOTTA LIKE THE ODDS
IT'S THE SAME GUY.

TALK TO THEM
AT THE PAROLE OFFICE.

YEAH, I'LL TELL THE BOSS
WHERE WE'RE GOING.

HEY, GUYS...

YOU WANT TO STOP BY TONIGHT
AT McGOWAN'S?

I GOT IT COVERED.

HOW'S THAT?

I'M WORKING THE DOOR.

YOU'RE THE BOUNCER?
RIGHT.

WOW.
WHAT?

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU DID
THAT KIND OF WORK.

[ SCOFFS ] EAT AND DRINK FOR
NOTHING ‐‐ END OF THE SHIFT,

WALK OUT WITH A BUCK AND A HALF
IN MY POCKET, A BABE ON MY ARM,

[CHUCKLES] MAYBE.

SOUNDS GOOD.

ANY TIME AFTER 7:00.

YOU PLANNING ON DOING THAT?

I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT'S ALL THIS BUSINESS
ABOUT REIGNING IT IN,

NOT GETTING HAMMERED AT NIGHT ‐‐
THAT'S FINISHED NOW?

HEY, IT'S GOOD YOU FOUND
SOMETHING TO YELL AT ME ABOUT.

OTHERWISE,
YOU'D NEVER TALK TO ME.

I GOT A LOT ON MY MIND, JOHN.

OH, WELL, JOIN THE CLUB.

[ SIGHS ]
GO GET THE CAR.

YES, MEIN FUHRER.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, MEDAVOY?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WORKING IN A BAR
IS AGAINST REGULATIONS.

[ SCOFFS ]
NOBODY CARES ABOUT THAT.

THIS NEW BOSS WE GOT'S
OUT OF I. A. B.

YOU DON'T THINK
HE'S GONNA CARE?

THERE'S MILLIONS OF GUYS
WORKING BARS, ANDY.

YOU'VE DONE IT YOURSELF.
YOU'RE NOT ME.

WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

[ SIGHS ]

LOOK, YOU'RE A BRIGHT GUY.

YOU COULD DO A LOT BETTER
THAN WORKING IN A SALOON.

I'M NOT TOUGH ENOUGH
IS WHAT YOU MEAN.
MEDAVOY.

THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SAYING,
I'M NOT TOUGH ENOUGH.

IT'S NOT A MATTER
OF BEING TOUGH.

I GOT A GOLD SHIELD,
ANDY, SAME AS YOU.

AND WHEN YOU GOTTA DEAL WITH
SOME DRUNK WHO GOES 240,

AND NOTHIN' MEANS NOTHIN',

WHAT GOOD IS THAT SHIELD
GONNA DO YOU?

HEY, I PUT TOO MUCH OF MY LIFE
INTO THIS JOB

TO HAVE YOU AND YOUR PARTNER,

AND FOR ALL I KNOW,
EVERYONE ELSE AROUND HERE

THINKING THAT I NEED SOMEONE
TO WIPE MY NOSE FOR ME.

WHOEVER I GOTTA DEAL WITH,
I'LL DEAL WITH 'EM.

THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT.

[ SIGHS ]

HELLO.

ARE WE MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE
IN OUR SPARE TIME?

[ LAUGHS ] I WISH.

YOU JUST HAPPENED TO FIND
A MINTON CREAMER

IN AUTUMN FESTIVAL?

I KEEP A LOT OF MINTON
OPEN STOCK.

IT HAPPENED TO BE IN THERE.

WELL, IT WAS INCREDIBLY
THOUGHTFUL,

AND I WANTED TO THANK YOU
IN PERSON.

KEEPING A LARGE INVENTORY
HAS ITS REWARDS.

OKAY, I AM GOING TO BE
SHAMELESSLY FORWARD

AND RISK MAKING BOTH OF US
TOTALLY UNCOMFORTABLE.

ARE YOU SEEING ANYONE
AT PRESENT?

NO, I'M NOT.

THEN MAY I INVITE YOU TO LUNCH
WITH ME TODAY?

YES, YOU MAY.

FRANKIE ROSALES.

HE'S ONE OF YOURS?

DID THREE AND A HALF YEARS IN
CLINTON, GOT OUT LAST MARCH.

CAN WE SEE THE FOLDER?

PLEASE,
MAY WE SEE THE FOLDER?

HE'D BEEN WORKING A LOADING‐DOCK
JOB DOWN IN WILLIAMSBURG.

THAT THE HOME OF RECORD?

YEAH, FRANK LIVES
WITH HIS SISTER.

MISS LITZ, WILL YOU BE
ACCOMPANYING US?

UM, I'LL GET MY COAT.

WELL, I FELL IN LOVE WITH ALL
THINGS TUSCAN WHEN I WAS 25.

AND NOW YOU HAVE A FARM THERE.

ABOUT A MILE FROM WHERE
DELLA ROBBIA HAD HIS STUDIO.

ONE MINUTE YOU'RE AN ANTIQUE
DEALER IN NEW YORK.

YOU GET OFF THE PLANE,

AND NOW YOU'RE A GENTLEMAN
FARMER IN TUSCANY.

[ CHUCKLES ]

UNFORTUNATELY, IT DOESN'T KEEP
GOING ON GOOD LOOKS ALONE.

I'M SURE IT DOESN'T.

I CAME THIS CLOSE TO LOSING
EVERYTHING, WHICH I WILL NOT,

UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,
ALLOW TO HAPPEN.

WELL, HOW DID IT GET
TO THAT POINT?
I DON'T KNOW.

A BILL FROM THE ITALIAN
TAXING AUTHORITY

COMING AFTER A DISASTROUS YEAR
IN SALES MAYBE.

MY GRANDFATHER HAD A FARM.

OF COURSE, IT WAS IN WISCONSIN,
NOT TUSCANY,

BUT I REMEMBER
WHAT IT DID TO HIM

WHEN HE COULDN'T HOLD
ONTO IT ANYMORE.

MMM, WELL, THANK GOD FOR ‐‐
COME SI DICE ‐‐ INSURANCE?

GRAZIE.

SO...WHO IS THIS JOHN IRVIN
PERSON ANYWAY?

I JUST PUT HER DOWN,
IF WE COULD TALK QUIET.

HAVE YOU SEEN YOUR BROTHER,
LINDA?

I THINK HE'S AT WORK.

THIS IS DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ,
DETECTIVE CLARK.

DO YOU MIND IF WE JUST TAKE
A LOOK AT HIS ROOM?

HE'S NOT DOING NOTHING BAD,
MISS LITZ.

NOBODY'S SAYING HE IS,
LINDA.

THIS IS JUST A NORMAL VISIT.

BE MY GUEST.

OKAY, NOW, SEE...

HE SHOULDN'T HAVE THIS
CRACK PIPE IN HIS ROOM, LINDA.

OTHER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN IN HERE.
THAT AIN'T HIS.

WHERE CAN WE FIND HIM,
MISS ROSALES?

MY NAME AIN'T ROSALES,
IT'S SANCHEZ.

OKAY, WHERE CAN WE FIND HIM,
MISS SANCHEZ?

DID YOU TRY HIS WORK?

HEY, MARGARET, HOW OFTEN WILL
MISS SANCHEZ GET TO SEE HER BABY

WHEN SHE GETS LOCKED UP
FOR BEING AN ACCESSORY?
WHAT?

NOBODY IS GOING TO LOCK YOU UP,
LINDA,

BUT IN ORDER FOR PAROLE
TO WORK WITH YOUR BROTHER,

YOU HAVE TO COOPERATE
WITH US NOW.

THERE'S A BASEMENT APARTMENT
ACROSS FROM THE PINK HOUSES.

WHAT'S THE ADDRESS?
I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT'S THE ADDRESS, LINDA?
HEY!

IT'S ON THE CORNER OF SNEDIKER
AND PITKIN.

YOU'RE COMING ON A LITTLE
STRONG, DON'T YOU THINK?

OH, I HAVE A VERY SENSITIVE
NATURE ONCE YOU GET TO KNOW ME.

[ SCOFFS ]
WHAT IS THIS GUY'S PROBLEM?

[ CHUCKLES ] SWEETHEART, DON'T
TALK ABOUT ME LIKE I'M NOT HERE.

JOHN, TAKE IT EASY.

OH, I SHOULD TAKE IT EASY?

I'M GONNA GO SETTLE
HER DOWN.

YOU TELL ME
THAT IN FRONT OF HER?

YOU'RE OUT OF LINE, JOHN.

DID SHE GIVE UP THE ADDRESS?

YOU TALK TO A PAROLE OFFICER
LIKE SHE'S SOME BIM,

YOU'RE OUT OF LINE.

OH, MR. SENSITIVITY.

ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO ADD
TO MY LIST OF CHARGES?

LET'S GIVE THE PLACE A QUICK
TOSS, THEN HIT WHERE HE IS.

WHATEVER YOU SAY.

I'M GONNA TAKE THE DOOR.

WELL, HE'S IN VIOLATION.

YOU DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO.

WHY DON'T YOU WAIT BY
THE STAIRS, MISS LITZ,

MAKE SURE NO ONE COMES DOWN,
THANK YOU.

YOU'RE GONNA LET ME
GO IN FIRST.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

IT'S JUST THE TWO OF US NOW.

YOU'RE SNAKEBIT
OFF GETTING SHOT.

YOU GOT TOO MUCH ON YOUR MIND.

I'M GOING IN FIRST.
STAND BEHIND ME, JOHN.

OH, YOU GOT SOMETHING
TO PROVE, RIGHT?
SHUT UP.

OKAY, OKAY,
GET YOURSELF SHOT.

DROP THAT GUN!
OH, DON'T SHOOT ME.

DROP THAT GUN!
DON'T SHOOT ME.

DROP THAT GUN!

OH, HI.

HEY, JOHN.

IS THERE SOMEONE CLOSE TO BEING
ARRESTED IN THAT BURGLARY?

THERE'S A SUSPECT.

WE BOTH HAVE OUR DOUBTS
ABOUT HIM.

THE REASON I ASK

IS THAT I HAD LUNCH
WITH GERARD PROSSER TODAY.

UH‐HUH.

I HATE GOING BEHIND
SOMEONE'S BACK.

I JUST ALWAYS TRY TO BE
STRAIGHTFORWARD WITH PEOPLE.

WELL, DID HE SAY ANYTHING?

HE SAID HE HAD A VERY
DIFFICULT YEAR FINANCIALLY.

WHAT ELSE DID HE SAY?

SEE, NOW I FEEL LIKE
I'M GETTING HIM INTO TROUBLE,

AND HE MIGHT BE TOTALLY
INNOCENT.

IF HE'S TOTALLY INNOCENT, THEN
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

I REALLY LIKE THE GUY.

HE SAID, "THANK GOD
FOR INSURANCE."

HE SAID IT IN A WAY

THAT MADE ME THINK HE MIGHT
HAVE DONE SOMETHING WRONG.

I'LL GET HIM BACK IN.

OR HE COULD HAVE
JUST BEEN SAYING

THAT IN A YEAR
OF BAD THINGS HAPPENING,

HE GOT ROBBED,
WHICH IS ONE MORE BAD THING,

BUT THAT HE HAD INSURANCE...

AND WASN'T THAT LUCKY?

YOU'RE RIGHT.

COULD BE NOTHING MORE
THAN THAT.

WE THOUGHT YOU'D BE HAPPY
TO KNOW ISMET'S OUR GUY.

NATURALLY, HE SAYS
HE'S INNOCENT,

BUT WE THINK THERE'S ENOUGH
EVIDENCE TO INDICT HIM.

WHAT KIND OF EVIDENCE?

CONFESSED TO TAKING
A SILVER PICTURE FRAME

WE FOUND IN HIS APARTMENT.

8x10
WITH FLUTED PILASTERS?

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT FLUTED PILASTERS ARE,

BUT 8x10 SOUNDS RIGHT.

OH, IT'S NOT SILVER,
IT'S PEWTER,

AND I MAY HAVE TOLD HIM
THAT HE COULD TAKE IT.

HOW IS THAT EVIDENCE THAT HE'S
RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT WAS STOLEN?

SHOWS INCLINATION
AND OPPORTUNITY.

OH, I DON'T THINK IT SHOWS
ANY SUCH THING.

PUT THAT TOGETHER
WITH HIS RECORD ‐‐

IT'S A SLAM DUNK TO CONVICT.

CAN WE BACK UP A SECOND?

OH, WE ALSO THINK
YOU STAND A CHANCE

OF GETTING
THE MERCHANDISE BACK.

I'M NOT CONCERNED
ABOUT THAT RIGHT NOW.

EITHER HE STASHED IT
OR FENCED IT.

IF HE HELPS US TO LOCATE IT, HE
STANDS TO DO HIMSELF SOME GOOD.

MAYBE KNOCK A FEW YEARS
OFF HIS SENTENCE.

I DON'T WANT ISMET CHARGED
WITH THIS.

MR. PROSSER, YOU COME TO US WITH
A CRIMINAL COMPLAINT,

WE INVESTIGATE, GATHER EVIDENCE,
AND TURN IT OVER TO THE D. A.

UNLESS THERE'S SOMETHING YOU
WANT TO TELL US.

OH, GOD.

WHERE DO I BEGIN?

DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE STOLEN
MERCHANDISE IS, MR. PROSSER?

I REALLY FELT
THAT WITH ENOUGH TIME,

I COULD MAKE EVERYTHING RIGHT.

YOU TOOK THE MERCHANDISE.

YOU PUNCHED OUT THE LOCK.

YOU REPORTED IT STOLEN.

ALL OF THE ABOVE.

[ SIGHS ]

WHERE WERE YOU THIS MORNING,
FRANKIE?

I WENT TO SEE A GUY ABOUT
A JOB THIS MORNING.

A JOB WHERE?

AT A NAVY YARD, MAN,
A WAREHOUSE JOB.

MAN, YOU ARE LUCKY.

[ CHUCKLES ] WHAT,
THAT HE HAD BAD AIM?

FOR STARTERS, YEAH.

LOOK, MAN, NO UNIFORM,
NO I. D., MAN.

AS FAR AS I KNEW,
YOU GUYS WAS BURGLARS.

ENTIRELY REASONABLE YOU DIDN'T
HEAR US YELLING WE WERE COPS.

THAT HAPPENS.

THERE'S AN ARMED ROBBERY
WE SHOULD AT LEAST TALK ABOUT.

I DON'T KNOW NOTHIN' ABOUT THAT.

SOMEBODY WHO LOOKED
A LOT LIKE YOU

WAS IN THE STORE
AT THE TIME,

BUT THAT MIGHT BE
A WITNESS CONFUSED

ABOUT WHO WAS ACTUALLY
ROBBING THE PLACE.

OH, I'M SUPPOSED TO HAVE
ROBBED SOMEPLACE?

WERE YOU ON A BUS
THIS MORNING?
WHY?

WE HAD THIS INCIDENT
ON A THIRD AVENUE BUS.

GUY GETS INTO AN ALTERCATION
WITH SOME GUY,

ENDS UP STABBING HIM.

IT WASN'T ME.

THE GUY WHO GOT STABBED WASN'T
EXACTLY A CHOIRBOY.

IN ALL LIKELIHOOD, YOU WERE
JUST DEFENDING YOURSELF.

I THOUGHT I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
ROBBING SOME STORE.

RIGHT, AND YOU CAN'T BE IN
TWO PLACES AT THE SAME TIME.

OH, WAS THEY
AT THE SAME TIME?

WHAT?
WHAT'S THAT?

IDENTIFIED AS THE KNIFE USED
ON THE BUS,

FOUND AT YOUR SISTER'S
APARTMENT.

IT WAS A FIGHT, RIGHT?
COME ON, MAN.

YOU GUYS ARE RUNNING GAME
ON ME, MAN.
NO GAME.

IT'S JUST YOU KEEP TELLING US
IT WASN'T YOU.

YOU DIVERT OUR ATTENTION
TO PROVING IT WAS.

INSTEAD OF HELPING YOU.

OH, YOU'RE GONNA HELP ME?

IS IT YOUR KNIFE?

OH, NO, TELL ME FIRST
HOW YOU'RE GONNA HELP ME.

SAY IF IT IS.
ALL RIGHT, IT IS.

THE GUY WAS A LOT BIGGER
THAN YOU, RIGHT?

I DON'T BACK UP OFF OF THAT.

YOU'RE SCARED ‐‐
SCARED, THOUGH.

NO, I AIN'T SCARED OF NOBODY.

NOTHING WRONG
WITH BEING SCARED, FRANKIE.

COME UP AGAINST SOMEBODY
TOUGHER, WE'RE ALL SCARED.

OH, NO, HE WASN'T TOUGHER
THAN ME.

OH, HE THOUGHT HE WAS.

OH, HE BE ALL EVIL‐EYE,

AND HE'D SPREAD OUT
WITH HIS LITTLE WIFE AND KIDS,

AND HER FEEDING 'EM ORANGES,

AND HIM LOOKING STRAIGHT BACK
AT ME LIKE I'M ON HIS BUS?

DON'T EVEN GIVE ME
THE SIMPLE RESPECT TO LOOK AWAY

EVEN THOUGH I TOLD HIM WITH MY
EYE, "YOU GOTTA LOOK AWAY."

HE'S SAYING, "THIS ALL MINE."

NO, I DON'T THINK SO, SON.

THAT'S WHEN I GO,
"WHAP, WHAP, WHAP"!

AND I WALK OFF.

AIN'T NOTHIN' YOURS NO MORE.

CAN I TALK TO HIM
FOR A SECOND?

SURE.

APPARENTLY, OUR TUSCAN SOJOURN
WILL HAVE TO WAIT.

YOU WERE READY TO LET SOMEONE
ELSE GO TO PRISON?

NO, THAT WAS NEVER
MY INTENTION.

YOU THOUGHT IT WOULD
JUST GET WRITTEN OFF

TO INSURANCE COMPANY PROFIT
AND LOSS?

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT I WAS HAVING
LUNCH WITH SHERLOCK HOLMES.

I THINK A LITTLE BIT
MAYBE YOU DID.
OH, REALLY?

THIS IS ON SOME SUBCONSCIOUS
LEVEL, DR. FREUD?

I THINK YOU'RE A GOOD PERSON,
GERARD.

I THINK YOU FELT BAD ABOUT
WHAT YOU WERE DOING

AND WANTED TO TELL SOMEONE.

THAT'S A NICE IDEA, JOHN.

UNFORTUNATELY,
THAT'S ALL IT IS.

I ASKED YOU TO LUNCH

BECAUSE I HAVE A THING
FOR BLONDS.

WHATEVER I MAY HAVE SAID

THAT CAUSED YOU TO RUN AND TELL
CAGNEY AND LACEY,

YOU CAN CHALK IT UP
TO THE WINE.

SORRY TO DISILLUSION YOU.

GOOD LUCK.

YEAH, WELL,
RIGHT BACK AT YOU, SAILOR.

SHALL WE, LADIES?

ROSALES WENT
FOR THE HOMICIDE.

WE NEED TO GET HIM DOWN
TO CENTRAL BOOKING,

THEN TALK TO THE RIDING D. A.

WHAT ABOUT THE ROBBERY?

WE SHOWED HIM THE PHOTOGRAPH.
HE WENT FOR THAT, TOO.

I NOTIFIED THE BOROUGH
ABOUT THE SHOT FIRED.

WE'LL HAVE TO INTERVIEW
WITH THE DUTY CAPTAIN,

BUT I READ THE REPORT ‐‐ I KNOW
THERE'S NO PROBLEM WITH IT.

YOU DID SOME GOOD WORK TODAY.

THANKS.

WELL, WELL, WELL,
LOOK WHO'S HERE.

HOW'S IT GOIN', GREG?

HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DRINKING?

UH, I DON'T KNOW,
A GIN AND TONIC.

CAN WE GET A G & T
FOR MY FRIEND OVER HERE, TOMMY?

IT'S QUIET.

IT'S EARLY YET.

SO WHAT DID ANDY HAVE TO SAY
ABOUT YOU DOING THIS?

TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH,

I DON'T REALLY CARE
WHAT ANDY HAD TO SAY.

[ CHUCKLES ] HE'S A WORRIER.

YEAH, WELL, LET HIM SWEEP
HIS OWN SIDE OF THE STREET.

YOU HAVE DINNER YET?

NO, I'M GONNA GRAB
SOMETHING LATER.

I JUST WANTED TO STOP BY
FOR A MINUTE.

HAVE SOMETHING HERE.

CAN WE GET A MENU OVER HERE,
TOMMY?

YES, SIR.

IRISH BAR FILLED
WITH STINKIN' YUPPIES!

I HAD THE SKIRT STEAK
JUST BEFORE ‐‐ EXCELLENT.

WHAT ARE YOU, LAWYERS,
STOCKBROKERS?

RIGHT.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, "RIGHT"?
WHICH IS IT?

HEY, MAN,
WE'RE JUST HAVING A DRINK.

[ Mockingly ] HEY, MAN,
WE'RE JUST HAVING A DRINK.

HAVE IT
WITH THE SAUTéED ONIONS.

WE'RE LAWYERS, OKAY?

OH, WHAT,
YOU HAD THE DAY OFF,

SO YOU THOUGHT YOU'D WEAR
YOUR MATCHING LEATHER JACKETS?

WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?

WHY IS SHE DOIN'
ALL THE TALKING, FAGGOT?

YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING HERE,
GREG?

CAN I BUY YOU A DRINK?
I BUY MY OWN DRINKS.

I'M HERE IF YOU NEED ME,
GREG.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

YOU'RE BOTHERING THESE PEOPLE.
I GOTTA ASK YOU LEAVE.

HEY, HE'S ALL RIGHT.

YOU'RE THE BOUNCER?

RIGHT.

YOU MUST WORK CHEAP.

YOU CAN FINISH YOUR DRINK,
BUT THEN YOU GOTTA GO.

OR WHAT?

OR I GOTTA DO
WHAT I GOTTA DO.

YOU PUT YOUR HANDS ON ME,

AND I'M GONNA BREAK YOUR ARM.

I'M TALKING TO YOU
LIKE A GENTLEMAN.

MY JOB IS TO GET YOU OUT
OF THIS BAR.

ONE WAY OR ANOTHER,
I'M GONNA DO THAT.

HOW YOU DOIN', ANDY?

GOOD...ANDY.

HOW YOU DOIN'?

YOU FEELING ALL RIGHT?

WITH ALL THE DOPE I GOT GOING,
I FEEL GREAT.

I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU
WE GOT THE GUY.

OFF THE PICTURE?
RIGHT.

NO KIDDING.

YOU DID GOOD WITH THAT
DICK TRACY PHONE.

THANKS.

HE'S GOING AWAY FOR A LONG TIME,
THIS GUY.

THAT'S GOOD.

AND YOU'RE GONNA WALK OUT OF
HERE LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED.

YEAH, THEY SAY TWO WEEKS
IF THERE'S NO INFECTION.

PROBABLY BETTER TO HAND OVER THE
MONEY IF IT EVER HAPPENS AGAIN.

YEAH.
THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING.

ALL RIGHT.

YOU TAKE CARE, ANDY.

HEY, CAN I ASK YOU A FAVOR?

SURE.

MY PHONE HAS ALL MY FRIENDS'
NUMBERS IN IT.

SOME OF THEM MIGHT BE TRYING
TO CALL ME.

I'LL SWING BY THE HOUSE
AND PICK IT UP.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT
TONIGHT.

I'LL BE BACK IN AN HOUR.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

[ SIGHS ]

HEY.

ALL RIGHT, THIS IS JUST THE
STRESS OF THE JOB DOING THIS.

THINK ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE.
IT'LL PASS.

UM...

WHAT'S, UH ‐‐

WHAT'S THE TOTAL NUMBER
OF LOCKERS IN HERE?

18.

IF I PUT MY HAND ON YOU,
IS IT GONNA GO THROUGH?

TRY IT.

LOOK, IF I'M NOT DREAMING,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

YOU CALLED ME.

NO, I DIDN'T CALL YOU.

YOU JUST SHOWED UP
IN THAT HOSPITAL BED.

YOU GAVE ME A HELL OF A SCARE,
LET ME TELL YOU.
THAT WASN'T ME.

THAT WAS YOUR IMAGINATION
REACHING OUT TO ME.

SO HERE I AM.

IN THE FLESH, SO TO SPEAK.

SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

ANYONE ELSE COMING IN,
WOULD THEY SEE YOU?
NO.

THEY WOULD JUST THINK
THAT YOU WERE CRAZY,

STANDING HERE TALKING
TO YOURSELF.

AND THEY'D BE RIGHT.

I'M STANDING HERE TALKING
TO A GHOST.

YOU ARE GOING THROUGH
AN UNUSUAL TIME.

TELL ME ABOUT IT.

YOU TELL ME.

WHAT'S IT LIKE?

WHAT, BEING DEAD?

YEAH.

IT'S OKAY.

PEACEFUL.

YOU KNOW STUFF ABOUT US?

LIKE WHEN YOU'RE GONNA DIE?
YEAH.

YOU REALLY WANT
TO KNOW THAT?

IF THAT GUY'S GUN
DON'T MISFIRE,

I'M LAID OUT
AT GLEASON'S FUNERAL HOME.

SO, YEAH, I WANT TO KNOW.

I'M NOT AFRAID TO DIE.
I KNOW LIFE IS SHORT.

I JUST WANT TO KNOW
HOW SHORT.

ANDY, IF LIFE WERE SHORT,
I WOULDN'T BE HERE.

LIFE IS LONG.

YOU KNOW THIS?
LIFE IS LONG?

IT'S LONG IN POSSIBILITIES.
IT'S LONG IN THOSE YOU AFFECT.

IT'S LONG IN WHAT LIVES ON
AFTER YOU'RE GONE.

YEAH, THAT MUCH I KNOW.

[ SIGHS ]

TELL ME WHAT TO DO, BOBBY.

I GOT A NEW BOSS, PROBABLY GONNA
EASE ME OFF THE JOB.

I GOT A WIFE
AND THREE LITTLE KIDS.

I'M TOO OLD TO START AGAIN.

I'M TOO OLD TO CHANGE.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THE HELL TO DO.

SURE YOU DO.

HEY, YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S BEEN
HANGING AROUND UP THERE

WITH THEM SAINTS
AND PROPHET TYPES.

YOU TELL ME.

BE A TEACHER.

YEAH, GOOD.

THERE'S AN IMAGE.

ANDY SIPOWICZ BEHIND A DESK,

YELLING AT 30 KIDS
THROWING SPITBALLS.

OR MAYBE JUST FOUR KIDS.

THREE'S ENOUGH, TRUST ME.
NO MORE KIDS IN MY LIFE.

WHAT ABOUT YOUR PARTNER?

CLARK'S A GROWN MAN.

WHO LOST ONE FATHER

AND SCARED TO DEATH
HE'S GONNA LOSE ANOTHER ONE.

I CAN'T TAKE THAT ON.

YOU ALREADY DID.

HE DON'T WANT ME BEING
HIS FATHER.

YEAH, HE DOES.

WHEN THE KIDS ARE
AT THEIR WORST,

THAT'S WHEN THEY NEED YOU
THE MOST.

IT'S TOO LATE.

I FEEL LIKE I LOST HIM
ALREADY,

JUST LIKE I LOST ANDY JR.
AND SYLVIA AND YOU.

I CAN'T GO THROUGH
THAT AGAIN.

SPOT HIM THE MISTAKES, ANDY,

AND TEACH HIM TO RIDE OUT THE
LOSSES, AND YOU WON'T HAVE TO.

YOU THINK THE BIG GUY WILL LET
UP ON YOU 'CAUSE OF YOUR LOOKS?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO SERVE A
PURPOSE WHEN YOU'RE DOWN HERE.

THE BIG GUY, AS IN GOD?

WHEN YOU NEEDED HIM THE MOST,
HE WAS RIGHT THERE FOR YOU.

YOU'RE SAYING
THERE'S ACTUALLY A GOD?

YES, ANDY, THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT I'M SAYING.

IT'D BE NICE IF HE GAVE ME
THE HIGH SIGN ONCE IN A WHILE.

I THINK THAT'S
WHAT HE'S DOING.

HOW COME I'M SO AFRAID,
BOBBY?

'CAUSE YOU THINK TOO MUCH
ABOUT WHAT'S AHEAD OF YOU.

YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU OWE,
THE PEOPLE WHO DEPEND ON YOU,

WHAT YOU OWE THE JOB,
WHAT YOU OWE YOURSELF.

AND YOU'RE AFRAID
THAT YOU WON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME

TO MAKE GOOD ON ALL OF IT.

YOU DIDN'T.

MY LIFE WAS EXACTLY AS LONG
AS IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE.

NOT AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED.

I NEVER GOT OVER NOT HAVING YOU
IN THE WORLD WITH ME.

I AM IN THE WORLD WITH YOU,
ANDY.

NO, YOU'RE NOT,
NOT LIKE IT WAS.

NO, NOT LIKE IT WAS.

I WISH WE COULD GO BACK
TO THEN.

WE COME WHEN WE ARE CALLED,
ANDY.

I GOTTA ASK YOU...

DO YOU SEE ANDY JR.?

HE'S FINE.

WHAT ABOUT SYLVIA?

ALSO FINE.

DO YOU SEE THEM?

NO, IT DON'T WORK LIKE THAT,
BUT I KNOW ‐‐ THEY'RE FINE.

I KNOW YOU'RE IN THEIR HEARTS.

AND THIS LITTLE CHAT
THAT WE'RE HAVING ‐‐

CAN WE MAKE THIS
A REGULAR THING?

I'M ALWAYS AROUND
IF YOU NEED ME.

WHAT, ARE YOU GONNA BE LIKE
MY GUARDIAN ANGEL?

SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

I MISS YOU, PARTNER.

I MISS YOU, TOO.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

GOD BLESS, ANDY.

[ CLARK SIGHS ]

I'LL BE OUT OF YOUR WAY
IN A SECOND.

WANT TO GRAB SOMETHING
TO EAT?

YOU WANNA?

YEAH.

[ SIGHS ]

I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE, JOHN.

I'M RIGHT HERE WITH YOU.
