AND THAT'S A WRAP

ON A NEW PIECE BY THE LUNATICS.

TELL US WHAT YOU THINK

AND GIVE US A CALL HERE AT K-H-A-R-T.

THAT'S K-HART, THE STATION WITH HEART.

I'M JOE DANCER AND YOU'RE LISTENING TO

DANCER IN THE MORNING.

THE NUMBER TO CALL IS...

HI.

HI!

EXCUSE ME?

I SAID YOUR TAN'S BEAUTIFUL.

SORRY, I'M JUST HERE FOR THE EXERCISE.

JELLY DONUT.

WANT SOMETHING?

NO, THANK YOU, I HAD BREAKFAST.

A BOWL OF GRANOLA, FRESH-SQUEEZED JUICE,

CUP OF HERB TEA,

ALL AFTER MY RUN THIS MORNING.

YOU KNOW, THAT DONUT IS EQUIVALENT

TO 4 SPOONFULS OF SUGAR.

YOU JUST ADDED MORE TO YOUR COFFEE.

YOU FINALLY GOT THAT DATE

WITH THE GIRL FROM THE HEALTH CLUB.

HOOKER, YOU'RE NOT GETTING ENOUGH FIBER.

FIBER? FIBER.

ROMANO, DID ANYBODY BUG YOU THIS MORNING

WHEN YOU BREWED YOUR HERB TEA

AND CRUNCHED YOUR GRANOLA?

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.

AS A POLICEMAN, I HAVE VERY FEW RIGHTS LEFT,

BUT ONE OF THEM IS THE RIGHT

TO EAT MY JELLY DONUT IN PEACE.

SO GO GET OFF YOUR GRANOLA

AND DO SOME PUSH-UPS OR SOMETHIN'.

TOO MUCH SUGAR, MAN.

SEE WHAT IT'S ALREADY DONE TO YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE?

UNITS IN THE VICINITY AND 4-ADAM-30.

A POSSIBLE ATTACK IN PROGRESS,

AT THE ATHLETIC FIELD,

4-0-4 NORTH CYPRESS.

4-ADAM-30, YOUR CALL IS CODE 3.

TELL 'EM THEY FOUND US.

4-ADAM-30, ROGER.

STOP! STOP!

DOWN THERE.

CHECK THE BUSHES FOR THE VICTIM.

HEY, WHAT ARE YOU...

4-ADAM-30, REQUESTING AMBULANCE AT OUR CALL CODE 3.

HEY, HEY, HEY, YOU! WAIT, THAT'S MY CAR.

4-ADAM-30 NOW WESTBOUND ON ELLENDALE.

YOU ALL RIGHT IN THE CAR?

YOU IN THE TRUCK?

4-ADAM-30, REQUESTING TRAFFIC UNIT,

HEAVY DUTY TOW AND STREET MAINTENANCE

AT CARLSBAD AND CROWLEY.

PURSUIT TERMINATED.

BIG FOOT AGAIN.

3RD RAPE WE'VE HAD THIS MONTH,

AND WE'RE JUST 1 PRECINCT.

WHAT IS HAPPENING OUT HERE?

THE RAPISTS ARE OUT ON BAIL, ROMANO.

THE JURIES ARE LOCKED UP.

RAPISTS AREN'T FOUND GUILTY ANYMORE,

THEY'RE FOUND DISTURBED.

THEN WE SPEND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS

TRYING TO CURE 'EM,

AND WE FORGET THE NAMES OF THE VICTIMS.

THE DETECTIVES WILL DO THE BEST THEY CAN

TO FIND THE MAN WHO ASSAULTED YOU.

AND I'LL BE HERE ANYTIME YOU WANT A WOMAN TO TALK TO.

OK, MICHELE?

SGT. CONRAD, I'VE TOLD HER

YOU'LL BE THE CASE DETECTIVE

AND I'VE COVERED THE PRO-SOCIAL CHECKLIST

WITH HER.

AT LEAST SHE'S BEEN TOLD WHAT TO EXPECT

IN TERMS OF POST-EVENT DEPRESSION OR PSYCHO-TRAUMA.

BUT I'D GO EASY.

SHE'S REALLY BEEN THROUGH IT.

OK, OFFICER, PUT IT IN YOUR REPORT.

THE NEW RULES HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED.

THERE'S GOOD REASON FOR THOSE RULES, SERGEANT.

STACY, HE'S BEEN THROUGH THE SAME TRAINING AS YOU.

IT JUST DIDN'T TAKE...

I'LL TAKE CARE OF HIM.

OK, MISS, NOW I'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE.

I KNOW IT'S A TOUGH GO,

BUT WE GOTTA GET TO THE BOTTOM LINE.

THE MORE TIME THAT GOES BY,

THE HARDER IT'S GOING TO BE TO NAIL THIS GUY

THAT ATTACKED YOU.

I WISH IT WOULDN'T ALWAYS TAKE A WEEK TO GET 'EM TO OPEN UP.

STACY HAD THE RIGHT APPROACH.

WHY DON'T YOU TRY IT?

YOU TRY IT.

I'VE GOT BETTER USE FOR MY TIME.

I EXPECT ALL THE REPORTS ON MY DESK

BY 1:00 THIS AFTERNOON.

IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT MY FATHER

THINKS CONRAD IS AT THE TOP OF THE DETECTIVE HEAP.

YOUR DAD RUNS THE PRECINCT, STACY,

AND I RESPECT HIS OPINION,

BUT THERE ARE HEAPS AND THEN THERE ARE HEAPS.

AND RIGHT NOW YOU'RE THINKING

NOTHING COULD HAPPEN TO YOU

THAT'S WORSE THAN WHAT YOU'VE JUST BEEN THROUGH.

I KNOW IT'S BEEN ROUGH.

I KNOW IT MUST'VE BEEN A NIGHTMARE.

I KNOW THAT YOU MIGHT NOT BE READY

FOR THOUGHTS OF CONSOLATION.

BUT, MICHELE,

YOU'VE GOT TO HOLD ON TO THE FACT THAT YOU'RE ALIVE.

YOU'VE GOT A... A FULL LIFE AHEAD OF YOU.

I KNOW YOU'RE A FIGHTER.

SO DON'T QUIT NOW. DON'T GIVE UP.

PLEASE.

I WAS BORN RIGHT HERE IN THIS HOSPITAL.

WHAT AM I GOING TO TELL MY MOTHER?

WE'LL CONTACT YOUR MOTHER

AND WE'LL TALK TO HER.

WE'LL BRING HER HERE.

YOU KNOW, I'M 22 YEARS OLD.

AND FOR 22 YEARS,

I'VE WAITED FOR THE RIGHT MAN TO COME ALONG.

IT'S NOT VERY FASHIONABLE, YOU KNOW?

I KNOW.

22 YEARS FOR THIS.

HUP, 2, 3, 4.

HUP, 2, 3, 4.

HUP, 2, 3, 4.

NICE, HOOKER, REAL NICE.

SO WHAT IS IT NOW, HOOKER?

3 BLACK AND WHITES YOU'VE TRASHED

SINCE THEY LET YOU BACK OUT ON THE STREET?

4.

THE HIGH PRICE OF FIGHTING CRIME.

WELL, BACK TO THE WARS.

YOU KNOW, HOOKER, THIS PSYCHOLOGY CLASS

WE TOOK ON RAPE VICTIMS HELPED,

BUT THIS IS MY FIRST REAL EXPERIENCE.

I LEARNED A LOT.

THEN WE ALL BENEFITED, STACY.

HOOKER!

WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW

HOW LONG I'VE BEEN WAITING? WOULD YOU?

IT'S NICE TO SEE YOU, MR. HATFIELD.

YOU GUYS EVER ON TIME?

55 MINUTES TO GET TO MY PLACE

WHEN I FIRST REPORTED MY CAR STOLEN

AND NOW I WAIT ONE HOUR,

EXACTLY ONE HOUR, FOR YOU TWO TO COME IN OFF YOUR WATCH.

WELL, SOME THINGS CAME UP, MR. HATFIELD.

ANY NEWS ON YOUR CAR?

YOU'RE ASKING ME THAT?

THAT'S THE REASON I CAME HERE TODAY,

TO ASK YOU THAT.

WELL, WE'VE HAD A BUSY DAY,

BUT WE FILED THE REPORT THIS MORNING

AND AUTO THEFT WILL TAKE IT FROM THERE.

BRAND-NEW MERCEDES.

38,000 DELIVERED. GONE.

JUST GONE,

RIGHT FROM MY DOORSTEP.

I PAY ENOUGH TAXES

TO SUPPORT A PLATOON OF YOU PEOPLE,

AND I HAVE NOT SEEN ONE PATROL CAR

ON MY BLOCK IN OVER 6 MONTHS.

NO WONDER CRIME IS RAMPANT.

WELL, IT MIGHT HAVE HELPED, MR. HATFIELD,

IF YOUR CAR WAS LOCKED AND THE KEYS WEREN'T LEFT IN IT.

WHAT'S THAT GOT TO DO WITH ANYTHING?

I WANT ACTION!

I WANT THIS THIEF PUT AWAY FOR 20 YEARS.

YES, SIR. AUTO THEFT IS JUST DOWN THE HALL.

3RD DOOR ON YOUR LEFT.

OVER HERE?

YES, YES, SIR.

BE ANOTHER HOUR.

I WONDER IF I LOCKED MY CAR THIS MORNING?

BELIEVE ME, HOOKER, IT WOULDN'T MATTER.

I'VE SEEN YOUR CAR.

PARDON ME, OFFICER.

THE, UH, OFFICER OUTSIDE SENT ME IN HERE.

HOW CAN I HELP YOU, SIR?

SOMEONE'S BEEN FOLLOWING ME.

FOLLOWING?

OK, THAT'S DETECTIVE HANSON. HE HANDLES FOLLOWINGS.

WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A SEAT DOWN THE HALL AND I'LL SEE IF HE'S IN.

WE TURNED THAT 4 BLOCK AREA

INCLUDING THE JOGGING TRACK INSIDE OUT

AND NOTHING.

KING KONG FOOTPRINT, MIRRORED SUNGLASSES.

ANY DOUBT THIS IS BIG FOOT?

YOU GOT A DESCRIPTION FROM HER.

AND A WEEK EARLY, CONRAD.

THIS GUY'S IN GREAT SHAPE, I'LL SAY THAT FOR HIM.

HE RAN OUT OF THERE LIKE A BOLT OF LIGHTENING.

PROBABLY EATS A LOT OF FIBER.

"MALE, CAUCASIAN, 30s, "6-2, 190,

"BROWN HAIR, MIRRORED SUNGLASSES,

WHITE SLEEVELESS T-SHIRT, BLUE SHORTS."

FITS ALL THE OTHER ASSAULTS, LIKE YOU SAID,

RIGHT DOWN TO THE MIRRORED SHADES,

WHICH IS WHY NONE OF THE OTHER VICTIMS

HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GIVE US

ANYTHING MORE THAN A VAGUE DESCRIPTION.

THE SUSPECT ATTACKED THE VICTIM FROM BEHIND WHILE SHE WAS JOGGING.

OVERPOWERED HER,

DRAGGED HER INTO THE BUSHES.

WITNESSES FOUND HER RADIO HEADPHONES ON THE TRACK,

HEARD THE SOUNDS OF STRUGGLE.

IT'S BIG FOOT, ALL RIGHT.

EVERY RAPE HAS OCCURRED BETWEEN 7 AND 9 A.M.

WHOEVER THIS GUY IS, HE'S SHARP.

WE'RE NOT DEALING WITH AN AMATEUR.

THERE'S GOT TO BE A PATTERN BUILDING SOMEWHERE.

I WOULDN'T BE TOO SURE OF THAT, HOOKER.

THIS CASE IS A LITTLE MORE COMPLEX

THAN THE ONES YOU RUN INTO IN THAT BLUE SUIT.

OH, YOU THINK SO, HUH?

I KNOW SO.

I'VE RUN EVERY POSSIBLE M.O. THROUGH THE COMPUTER.

I'VE NEVER HEARD OF A COMPUTER MAKING AN ARREST.

HAVE YOU?

LET ME WORRY ABOUT HOW I HANDLE MY CASE. OK, HOOKER?

BE NICE IF YOU PICKED UP THE PACE A LITTLE.

YOUR BOARD'S GETTING A LITTLE FULL.

ARE YOU STICKING YOUR NOSE IN WHERE IT DOESN'T BELONG AGAIN, HOOKER?

WELL, THAT'S A MATTER OF OPINION, CAPTAIN.

WELL, THE NEXT WATCH IS COMIN' ON.

TALK TO THEM.

I WANT AN F.I. ON EVERY JOGGER THAT OWNS A PAIR OF SNEAKERS.

IN THE WORKS, CAPTAIN.

YOU AND, UH, CONRAD DON'T SEEM TO BE

BEST OF FRIENDS, HOOKER.

HE'S GOT 2 DEGREES

AND THE AMBITION TO MAKE LIEUTENANT IN 6 YEARS OR LESS.

WELL, THAT'S NOT NECESSARILY BAD.

WELL, IT IS IF IT'S YOUR PRIORITY.

WELL, I LIKE CONRAD.

HE'S A TOUCH OVER-ZEALOUS, A LITTLE HIGH-STRUNG,

BUT I THINK HE'S A GOOD COP.

AND I LIKE AMBITION.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD GET YOURSELF A POUND OF IT, HOOKER.

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY NEXT MONTH,

WHY DON'T YOU SURPRISE ME.

YOU JUST, STAY OUT OF CONRAD'S HAIR, MISTER, ALL RIGHT?

NOW HE'S GOT ENOUGH MEDIA PRESSURE ON HIM

WITH BIG FOOT WORKING OUR PRECINCT.

NOW YOU GOT IT?

YES, SIR. ANYTHING FOR THE CORPS, SIR.

I THINK SHERIDAN'S STARTING TO LIKE YOU.

HE'S GOT GOOD TASTE.

♪

SHERIDAN.

WHAT MAY I ASK, IS THIS?

DANCERCISE, SERGEANT.

DANCERCISE?

THIS, MAY I REMIND YOU, IS A POLICE ACADEMY,

AND YOU ARE NOT THE ROCKETTES.

WHAT'S A ROCKETTE?

IT'S BEEN APPROVED ON AN EXPERIMENTAL BASIS.

I DON'T THINK YOU WANT TO ASK

WHO APPROVED IT, HOOKER.

LISTEN, DON'T KNOCK. IT'S NOT SO BAD.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO JOIN IN,

GET THAT OLD BOD YOU'VE BEEN DESTROYING FIRMED UP.

THE WORLD IS ON THE BRINK OF FALLING

INTO THE HANDS OF CRIMINALS

AND THE NEW COPS ARE DOING DANCERCISE.

REMEMBER, YOU HEARD IT HERE...

CARRY ON, SHERIDAN.

BIG FOOT, THE RAPIST, HAS STRUCK AGAIN

AND ONCE AGAIN, ELUDED THE POLICE.

COME ON, YOU GUYS IN BLUE,

THERE ARE LADIES IN DANGER OUT THERE.

LET'S GET IT TOGETHER.

HE MAY HAVE A POINT.

INCREASE IN SEX CRIMES, INCREASE IN RAPES.

WHAT'S CAUSING THIS, LADIES?

MY PRODUCER SAYS YOU'RE LOOKING TOO FOXY.

TOO PROVOCATIVE.

SEXY DRESS, SEXY WAYS, NEW MORALITY.

IS HE RIGHT? LET'S TALK IT OVER, GIRLS.

HELLO, K-HART, JOE DANCER SHOW,

LET'S TALK.

UH-HUH.

AND, UH, YOUR AGE?

ARE YOU SINGLE?

DO YOU LIVE ALONE?

YOU HAVE A VERY SEXY VOICE, LADY.

UH-HUH. YOU'RE WELCOME.

MAN, TODAY'S ROLL CALL

WAS LIKE WALKING BAREFOOT ON RAZOR BLADES.

WITH THE BRASS AND MEDIA HEAT

THAT SHERIDAN'S TAKING BECAUSE OF BIG FOOT,

SAFETY VALVE HAD TO POP SOMETIME.

ONLY TODAY HE LET THE WHOLE BOILER GO ON US.

JUST THE FACT THAT AN ANIMAL LIKE BIG FOOT

CAN FEEL FREE TO ROAM THE STREETS

AND DO WHAT HE'S DONE,

I JUST HOPE WHEN HE'S NAILED,

THE SAME HEAT GOES ALL THE WAY UP THE LINE

TO THE JUDGES WHO FEEL HIS KIND NEED UNDERSTANDING

INSTEAD OF BEING PUT IN A CAGE.

YEAH, I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.

YOU SAID YOU WERE GOING TO TALK TO MICHELE.

UH, HOW'S SHE DOING?

WELL, I TRIED TO GET HER A FEW TIMES LAST NIGHT,

TWICE THIS MORNING. NO ANSWER.

WELL, MAYBE SHE WENT OUT OF TOWN.

YEAH. MAYBE SHE'S NOT ANSWERING HER PHONE.

NOW THERE'S A PLACE

WE MIGHT GET SOME BIG FOOT ANSWERS.

HEY, ARNIE!

JUST THE MAN I'M LOOKING FOR.

HOW'S BUSINESS, ARNIE?

MY BUSINESS AIN'T NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, HOOKER.

WELL, THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE WRONG, MISTER.

WE'RE VERY INTERESTED IN YOUR SLEAZY BUSINESS.

HEY, WE'VE BEEN THROUGH ALL THIS BEFORE, YOU GUYS,

AND I'M PROTECTED HERE BY A CITY ORDINANCE.

YOU KNOW, ARNIE, MY EX-WIFE DRIVES BY HERE

ON THE WAY TO THE MARKET EVERY DAY.

AND MY 12 YEAR OLD,

SHE WALKS PAST HERE ON THE WAY TO SCHOOL.

MY LITTLE GIRL,

SHE RIDES BY ON THE SCHOOL BUS

ALONG WITH ALL THE OTHER 8 YEAR OLDS,

AND ME, I DRIVE BY HERE

AT LEAST 8 TIMES A DAY ON PATROL.

AND WHEN I THINK OF MY KIDS

AND MY EX-WIFE LOOKING AT THIS FILTH

AS PART OF THEIR LIVES, I GET VERY ANGRY.

WHEN MISERABLE SCUM LIKE YOU

CAN INVADE A DECENT COMMUNITY AND DIRTY IT

AND ATTRACT ALL THE OTHER GRIME

THAT GROVEL INTO YOUR LITTLE SEX SHOP.

LOOK, HOOKER,

JUST TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT, HUH?

I WANT TO CLOSE YOU DOWN, ARNIE.

BUT YOU'RE PROTECTED.

SO, I'LL TAKE THE NEXT BEST,

THE SCUM THAT VISIT YOU. THE SEX OFFENDERS, LIKE YOU.

HEY, I DON'T DO THAT STUFF.

SEX OFFENDERS LIKE YOU, ARNIE.

I'M AFTER ONE.

HE'S 6 FOOT 4.

HE WEARS MIRRORED SUNGLASSES.

HE'S GOT FEET THAT YOU CAN WADDLE IN.

HE'S A RAPIST AND I WANT HIM.

I WANT YOU TO HELP ME FIND HIM.

AND IF YOU DON'T,

I WON'T JUST DRIVE BY HERE ANYMORE,

I'LL PARK RIGHT OUTSIDE.

AND I'LL EAT MY LUNCH IN THE CAR.

AND I'LL SMILE AT ALL THE SEX OFFENDERS

AND I'LL CHECK THE REGISTRATION

OF ALL THE SCUM THAT COME IN AND VISIT.

CLEAR?

YOU'RE HARASSING ME, HOOKER.

NO, I'M NOT.

NOT YET ANYWAY.

LOOK, HOOKER...

OK, HOOKER.

ALL RIGHT, GIVE ME A BREAK, WILL YA?

I'LL... I'LL KEEP MY EYES OPEN.

THANKS, ARNIE.

EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS.

HATFIELD'S GOT HIS MERCEDES BACK.

HOW ABOUT THIS, FELLAS?

I FOUND HER RIGHT IN THE DRIVEWAY THIS MORNING.

WITH THIS. LOOK AT THIS.

THIS WAS ON THE WINDSHIELD.

"DEAR SIR,

"I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE HOSPITAL

"WITH MY PREGNANT WIFE.

"IT WAS TO BE OUR FIRST-BORN.

"MY CAR BROKE DOWN.

"I WAS DESPERATE, SO I TOOK YOURS.

"I'VE FILLED THE TANK AND HAD IT WASHED.

"PLEASE ACCEPT THESE 2 BOX SEAT TICKETS

TO THE RAMS 49ers GAME."

HOLD ON, THERE'S MORE. "P.S. IT'S A BOY."

YOU CAN'T GET TICKETS FOR THAT GAME. IT'S A SELLOUT.

BUT, I GOT 'EM.

KINDA RESTORES YOUR FAITH IN YOUR FELLOW MAN, DOESN'T IT?

YES, SIR, IT SURE DOES.

WE'LL CANCEL THE STOLEN REPORT.

WELL, MAYBE WE BETTER STILL TALK TO THE DETECTIVES.

OH, NO, NONSENSE.

THERE'S NOTHIN' TO TALK ABOUT.

AND LISTEN, GUYS, WHEN IT COMES TIME

TO SELL TICKETS TO THE POLICEMAN'S BALL, RIGHT,

CHESTER HATFIELD IS YOUR MAN.

WELL, THANK YOU, SIR.

YOU CAN BE FIRST ON HIS DANCE CARD.

HOW MUCH DO YOU GET FOR REFERRALS

TO YOUR HEALTH CLUB?

HOOKER. WHAT?

YOU ARE NOT TAKING ME SERIOUSLY.

COME ON.

I MEAN, HEY, IT'S YOUR LIFE. HOW MUCH?

IT'S YOUR BODY. FIBER, HOOKER. FIBER...

HOW MUCH DO YOU GET FOR REFERRALS?

I DON'T KNOW. $15, $20.

YOU DON'T KNOW?

YOU'RE HUSTLING ME TO GET A MEMBERSHIP

TO YOUR HEALTH CLUB SO YOU CAN GET A DISCOUNT,

AND YOU DON'T KNOW?

HEY, YOU WANT TO PORK OUT? YOU WANT TO FALL APART? GO AHEAD.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKIN' ABOUT, FALL APART?

I'M THE SAME WEIGHT I WAS WHEN I WAS A ROOKIE.

SAME BELT SIZE.

WELL, MAYBE A NOTCH OR 2 MORE, BUT, I MEAN, THAT'S...

SURE, YOU LOOK FINE, BUT IT'S HOW YOU FEEL.

I... I... I FEEL LIKE A JELLY DOUGHNUT.

OH, HOOKER.

THERE'S A GREAT PLACE RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.

LOOK.

DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?

I SURE DO.

LOOKS LIKE OUR MAN.

I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING. I DIDN'T RAPE THOSE WOMEN.

ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?

I'M NOT SAYING ANYTHING TILL I TALK TO A LAWYER.

SHUT UP AND WE'LL GET TO THAT REAL FAST.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT.

IF YOU GIVE UP THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT,

ANYTHING YOU SAY CAN...

AND WILL BE HELD

AGAINST YOU IN A COURT OF LAW.

DO YOU WISH TO GIVE UP THE RIGHT

TO REMAIN SILENT, MR. STEVENS?

NO, UH, UH, I DON'T WANT TO REMAIN SILENT ANYMORE.

I GOT IT ON MY CONSCIENCE, YOU KNOW?

WHAT YOU DID TO THOSE GIRLS?

I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT THEM.

YOU HAVE CONSULTED WITH MR. JACKSON HERE,

OF THE PUBLIC DEFENDER'S OFFICE,

AND YOU ARE AWARE OF YOUR RIGHTS?

YES.

BUT, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT NOW,

ABOUT WHAT I DID TO ALL THOSE WOMEN.

ALL RIGHT, MR. STEVENS,

THEN LET'S START WITH YESTERDAY.

I CAN'T REMEMBER THE EXACT ADDRESS.

I WAS JOGGING AND I SAW HER.

SHE WAS PRETTY.

VERY PRETTY.

I JOGGED AROUND THE TRACK BEHIND HER.

SHE HAD A... A HEADPHONE.

A... A RADIO, I THINK.

I CAME UP FROM BEHIND,

DRAGGED HER INTO THE NEARBY BRUSH.

I'VE SEEN ENOUGH.

EXCELLENT OBSERVATION ARREST, ROMANO.

PROVES THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ALERT PATROL WORK.

THANKS, CAPTAIN,

BUT SERGEANT HOOKER IS JUST AS RESPONSIBLE.

OH, OF COURSE HE WAS.

WOULD YOU GET ME CHIEF GRANT AND ALERT THE PRESS ROOM.

LOOKS LIKE WE MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO ANNOUNCE.

GOOD WORK, ROMANO.

SOMETHING'S WRONG.

YOU COULD SAY THAT.

YOU COULD DEFINITELY SAY THAT.

THERE YOU GO, HOOKER.

ALL THE FIELD INTERVIEW CARDS IN THE NAME OF STEVENS.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

TIP OF AN ICEBERG.

LISTEN TO THIS.

"SUSPECT OBSERVED LOITERING AT SCENE OF FATAL ACCIDENT.

"SUSPECT OBSERVED NEAR POLICE GARAGE.

"SUSPECT CONFESSES TO A CHILD KIDNAPPING,

"THEN RETRACTS STATEMENT

AFTER CHILD AND REAL KIDNAPPER ARE FOUND."

LET'S PULL THE STEVENS' PACKAGE.

SO WHAT, HOOKER? I'VE SEEN THESE.

THEY DON'T MEAN A THING.

THE MOST SIGNIFICANT THING ABOUT STEVENS'S LIFE

IS HIS 3 YEARS IN THE NAVY AND THAT WAS 18 YEARS AGO.

HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A PERMANENT ADDRESS.

SO? THE MAN'S A CLASSIC CASE.

THIS IS HIS ONE SHOT AT FAME,

AND HE DOESN'T CARE WHAT IT COSTS.

EVERYTHING ABOUT THAT MAN FITS, HOOKER,

INCLUDING THE SIGNED CONFESSION.

WHAT IS WITH YOU, CONRAD? WHAT'S DRIVING YOU?

ME? WHAT'S EATING YOU?

THE FACT THAT YOUR PARTNER SPOTTED HIM?

DON'T WORRY, HOOKER, I'LL MAKE SURE YOUR NAME GETS IN THE PAPERS, TOO.

THAT'S A CHEAP SHOT.

WE HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM HERE?

NO REAL PROBLEM, CAPTAIN.

HOOKER JUST SEEMS TO THINK

THAT STEVENS ISN'T BIG FOOT.

HE ONLY ISN'T BIG FOOT, HE'S NOBODY.

HE HAS A HISTORY OF TRYING TO CONFESS TO OTHER CRIMES.

NOW LOOK, STEVENS IS THE ONLY ONE

WITH INSIDE KNOWLEDGE ON BIG FOOT.

WE NEVER GAVE OUT ANY INFORMATION ON THE M.O.

BUT HE KNEW ABOUT THE HEADPHONES,

THE 2 JOGGERS WHO WERE WITNESSES,

AND THE 4 LOCATIONS.

HE KNEW IT ALL, HOOKER.

THERE COULD'VE BEEN A LEAK,

SOME OTHER WAY THAT STEVENS GOT THE INFORMATION.

I TOLD YOU ONCE AND I'LL TELL YOU AGAIN, HOOKER,

YOU JUST LEAVE THE CONCLUSIONS TO THE DETECTIVES. OK?

THE REPORTERS ARE WAITING.

NOW THE MATTER IS... THE MATTER IS CLOSED, MISTER.

UNDERSTOOD?

WE'RE LIVE HERE AT THE ACADEMY PRECINCT

WHERE CAPTAIN DENNIS SHERIDAN

AND THE CASE INVESTIGATOR DET. SGT. WAYNE CONRAD

ARE ABOUT TO MAKE A STATEMENT. LET'S LISTEN.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,

WE'RE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THE ARREST TODAY OF A SUSPECT

IN THE BIG FOOT RAPIST CASE.

NOW, SERGEANT CONRAD WHO'S HANDLING

THE CASE WILL SUM IT UP FOR YOU.

SERGEANT?

YES. UH, WE'LL BE TAKING THE SUSPECT

INTO ARRAIGNMENT TOMORROW.

THE WOMEN OF THE CITY WHO HAVE LIVED IN FEAR

OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS

CAN FINALLY BREATHE A SIGH OF RELIEF.

WE HAVE BIG FOOT IN CUSTODY. IT'S OVER.

THE VICTIM MAKE A STATEMENT?

SHE WAS SITTING ON THE FLOOR OF HER CLOSET

CRYING WHEN WE CAME IN.

THE PARAMEDICS THINK HER JAW HAS BEEN BROKEN.

HOW'D HE GET IN?

SLIDING GLASS DOOR.

AND THERE'S A VERY LARGE FOOTPRINT OUT THERE.

A LOT OF RAPISTS HAVE BIG FEET, ROMANO.

NOT ALL OF THEM ARE BIG FOOT.

YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?

HE'S NEVER HIT THIS LATE IN THE DAY.

HOOKER, BE A GOOD BLUE SUIT

AND SHAKE THE AREA FOR ANY WITNESSES.

ALREADY BEEN DONE, CONRAD.

AN OLD MAN TENDING HIS GARDEN

SAW THE SUSPECT AND THE CAR.

COUGAR, BROWN AND TAN.

LAST 3 NUMBERS OF THE LICENSE PLATE, 352.

ANYTHING ELSE

THE GOOD BLUE SUITS CAN DO FOR YOU, CONRAD?

22 BLOCKS FROM THE LAST RAPE.

WHERE'S THE PATTERN?

HOW IS BIG FOOT PICKING THESE GIRLS?

I DON'T KNOW, BUT THERE'S GOT TO BE A LINK SOMEWHERE.

WELL, MAYBE WITH THE A.P.B. OUT, SOMEBODY'LL SPOT THE COUGAR.

YOU BETTER GET IT IN GEAR.

YOU'RE GONNA BE LATE FOR TAMMY.

YOU'RE RIGHT. I'M MEETING HER AT THE HEALTH CLUB.

YOU GO TO A HEALTH CLUB ON A DATE?

YEAH. WE EXERCISE A LITTLE THERE,

THEN GO TO HER PLACE AND, UH...

EXERCISE A LITTLE THERE.

YOU KNOW, HOOKER, MAYBE THAT'S WHY YOUR EX DIVORCED YOU.

NOT ENOUGH EXERCISE.

THAT WASN'T THE REASON, JUNIOR.

CONRAD, BURNING THE MIDNIGHT OIL?

I FIND IT MORE BENEFICIAL

THAN WARMING A STOOL AT THE NEIGHBORHOOD TAVERN, HOOKER.

THEN I SUSPECT YOU DON'T WANT ME TO SAVE YOU A PLACE?

CONRAD, HEY, COME ON,

YOU KNOW STEVENS ISN'T BIG FOOT.

WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO RELEASE HIM?

WE HAVE A SIGNED CONFESSION

AND WE'RE CONTINUING TO BUILD A CASE.

I FINALLY GOT THROUGH TO MICHELE FORREST, HOOKER.

SHE DIDN'T SOUND TOO UP YET,

BUT SHE SAID SHE'D LIKE TO TALK TO YOU.

YOU WANT ME TO COME ALONG?

AND HAVE TAMMY START WITHOUT YOU?

THANKS, STACY.

TAMMY?

EXERCISE INSTRUCTOR.

WHO IS... WHO IS IT?

SGT. HOOKER.

HOW YOU DOING, MICHELE?

HOW DOES IT LOOK?

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET YOU AT WORK FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS.

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

I'M TAKING MY VACATION.

MICHELE,

THERE ARE ABOUT 50 REFERRAL SERVICES

IN THIS CITY THAT CAN BE A LOT OF HELP.

HERE'S A NUMBER OF A HOTLINE

THAT'S RUN BY LADIES JUST LIKE YOU.

THEY'VE BEEN THROUGH WHAT YOU'RE EXPERIENCING.

AND THEY'RE GONNA TELL YOU

THAT WHAT YOU'RE FEELING IS NORMAL.

THEY WANT TO HELP YOU AND THEY CAN.

WILL THEY BE THERE

WHEN... WHEN BIG FOOT'S DEFENSE ATTORNEY

ASKS ME HOW MANY MEN I'VE SLEPT WITH?

OR WHEN THEY ASK ME WHETHER OR NOT I ENJOYED IT?

THEY CAN'T ASK YOU THAT.

NOT ANY MORE.

THAT'S ONE LAW THAT'S BEEN CHANGED FOR THE GOOD.

BUT HE'LL STILL GET REASONABLE BAIL

AND A DOZEN CONTINUANCES, WON'T HE?

HE MIGHT.

BUT IF HE DOES, I'LL BE RIGHT THERE

HELPING YOU RAISE HELL ABOUT IT.

I WANT YOU TO HELP YOURSELF.

I WANT YOU TO CALL THAT NUMBER.

AND IF YOU'RE NOT AT WORK TOMORROW MORNING,

I'M GONNA COME HERE AND I'M GONNA FIND OUT WHY.

SERGEANT.

I... I KNOW YOU'RE RIGHT.

I'LL... I'LL GET MY ACT TOGETHER.

I PROMISE.

THAT'S A GIRL.

THE REASON WHY I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU,

IS THERE ON THE TABLE BY THE DOOR.

WHEN I WAS ATTACKED,

ONE OF THE JOGGERS WHO CALLED YOU

WAS NICE ENOUGH TO GET MY THINGS TOGETHER.

BUT WHEN THEY WERE RETURNED TO ME,

THAT WAS WITH THEM.

I SAW HIM PUT IT DOWN

WHEN HE CAME AFTER ME.

IT'S HIS.

BIG FOOT'S.

I CAN'T WAIT.

BEAN SPROUT SALAD, SOYBEAN CASSEROLE.

DON'T FORGET THE PAPAYA SURPRISE.

AND DON'T FORGET

OUR SOAK IN THE HOT TUB AFTER DINNER.

HOW COULD I?

IT'LL BE MY FIRST TIME IN HOT WATER

WITH THE POLICE.

NOW, SINCE YOU HAVEN'T HAD YOUR RUN TODAY,

YOU TAKE 5 AND I'LL GET THE CARROT JUICER JUICING.

5 MILES?

IT'LL BE THE FASTEST 5 IN HISTORY.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING THERE?

WELL, THERE IT IS.

RIGHT OFF THE GIRL'S PATIO FLOWER BED.

AND THEY SAY, IF THE SHOE FITS...

DON'T PUSH, HOOKER.

BIG FOOT'S NOT THE ONLY MAN IN TOWN

WHO WEARS A SIZE 13.

IS IT SO HARD FOR YOU TO ADMIT

THAT YOU GOT THE WRONG MAN BEHIND BARS?

IN YOUR OPINION, SERGEANT.

CONRAD.

THE BAG THAT BIG FOOT LEFT BEHIND

AT MICHELE'S RAPE

HAD A GLASS CASE FOR PRESCRIPTION SUNGLASSES.

STEVENS DOESN'T WEAR PRESCRIPTION GLASSES.

ROMANO'S DESCRIPTION OF THE CAR FITS

THAT OF THE OLD MAN TENDING THE GARDEN, A COUGAR.

BROWN, TAN.

YOU GOT ANOTHER FOOTPRINT.

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? ANOTHER PIN ON THE MAP?

WHAT I'M WAITING FOR, HOOKER,

IS AN EX-DETECTIVE

WHO'S REGRESSED BACK TO ROUTINE PATROL

TO GET OFF MY BACK.

THEN STOP GOING AFTER HEADLINES

AND GO AFTER FACTS!

WELL, UH, WHAT ARE THE RESULTS?

IT'LL TAKE LAB COMPARISONS TO BE POSITIVE,

BUT THERE ARE CERTAIN SIMILARITIES.

DO WE HAVE BIG FOOT IN JAIL OR DON'T WE?

THERE'S A GOOD POSSIBILITY WE DON'T.

I THINK IT'S, UH, TIME

WE REEVALUATED THE SITUATION, CONRAD.

ARE YOU FINISHED HERE?

I HAVEN'T INTERVIEWED THE GIRL.

HOOKER AND ROMANO CAN TAKE CARE OF THAT.

I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU IN MY OFFICE.

I'M SORRY.

I JUST HAVEN'T EVER SEEN ANY OF THESE MEN BEFORE.

HEY, LOOK, YOU TRIED.

I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO TRY REMEMBER SOMEBODY

YOU MIGHT HAVE SEEN BEFORE.

TO THINK THAT HE WAS RIGHT THERE.

HE BROKE IN.

IF YOU HADN'T COME ALONG,

OH, GOD, I HATE TO THINK WHAT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED.

SHEILA, WHAT ABOUT ANY UNUSUAL CONTACTS

YOU'VE MADE WITH MEN RECENTLY?

QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR... YOUR PERSONAL LIFE?

OR... OR, UH, ANYBODY AT WORK?

MAYBE JUST A CASUAL REMARK?

NOTHING.

I JUST MOVED DOWN HERE 6 WEEKS AGO.

I KNOW TAMMY BETTER THAN I KNOW ANYONE AT WORK.

YOU KNOW,

I WAS LISTENING TO A TALK SHOW THE OTHER DAY.

THEY WERE SAYING THAT GIRLS PROVOKED THESE THINGS,

IT MADE ME SO MAD I ACTUALLY CALLED IN.

YEAH, I HEARD THE SAME SHOW.

HOOKER.

YOU KNOW AN... AN ARNIE SHARP?

YEAH, A SLEAZE WHO RUNS A PORNO SHOP.

WELL, HE LEFT A MESSAGE FOR YOU.

"HAVE OVERSIZED CUSTOMER WHO WEARS MIRRORED SUNGLASSES.

"TRIED TO SELL HIS CAR TO ME TODAY AT CUT RATE.

"BROWN AND TAN COUGAR.

"NO LICENSE, CALLS HIMSELF DONNIE.

"HE DIGS GIRLIE MAGS.

NOW, LAY OFF, HOOKER."

MAKE ANY SENSE?

A GREAT DEAL OF SENSE.

HAVE AUTO THEFT START CHECKING ALL OUTLETS

FOR USED CARS.

HERE'S THE V.I.N.

I'LL CALL A TOW.

YOU'RE DOING SLOPPY WORK, HARRY.

IT S GONNA BUY YOU A ONE-WAY TICKET.

THIS CAR'S AS HOT AS A BAREFOOT ARAB

AND YOU'VE GOT NOTHING BUT CHUMP EXCUSES.

I HAD NO CRIMINAL INTENT, SERGEANT.

ON MY MOTHER'S GRAVE.

YOUR MOTHER'S DOING 1-TO-2 FOR FORGERY.

YOU WANNA JOIN HER OR YOU WANNA COUGH IT UP?

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

UH, HE WAS, UH, TALL, KINDA GOOD LOOKING GUY.

UH, KIND OF BLONDE HAIR.

UH, HIDING BEHIND THOSE COOL HAND LUKE MIRRORED SHADES.

HE WANTED TO DUMP THE CAR IN A HURRY.

I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S JUST A HUNCH,

BUT SHEILA MENTIONED SOMETHING

THAT MIGHT LINK THESE GIRLS TOGETHER.

WELL, LOOK, SUSPICION AND A HUNCH AREN'T THAT DIFFERENT.

LEARN TO TRUST THEM, JUNIOR.

OK.

THEN LET'S GO SEE MICHELE FORREST.

MICHELE, BEFORE THE ATTACK,

DID YOU TALK TO ANYBODY ABOUT RAPE?

NO, NOT REALLY.

I MEAN, MY GIRLFRIENDS AND I TALKED ABOUT IT

BECAUSE IT WAS ON THE NEWS.

HOW ABOUT HERE AT THE STORE OR ON THE PHONE?

ANYWHERE?

WELL, THE DAY BEFORE WHEN I WAS IN THE BACK...

NO, IT'S NOT IMPORTANT.

LET US DECIDE THAT.

OK. I WAS TAKING INVENTORY AND LISTENING TO THE RADIO.

THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT WOMEN WHO LIVE ALONE.

DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT STATION?

K-HART.

MICHELE, DID YOU CALL IN?

I TALKED TO THE PRODUCER, BUT I DIDN'T GET ON THE AIR.

WHAT DID YOU TALK ABOUT?

WELL, HE ASKED ME MY NAME, IF I WAS SINGLE,

WHAT KIND OF JOB I HAD.

THEY WANTED TO TALK TO YOUNG PROFESSIONALS.

HE SOUNDED NICE.

DID HE ASK YOUR ADDRESS?

YES. I... I GAVE IT TO HIM.

HE SAID IT WAS STATION POLICY TO HAVE IT,

BUT IT WOULDN'T GO OUT ON THE AIR.

YOU DON'T THINK HE LIED?

IT'S A MESSAGE WE TRY HARD TO GET OUT,

ESPECIALLY TO YOUNG WOMEN.

DON'T GIVE ANY INFORMATION OUT

ABOUT YOURSELF UNLESS YOU KNOW

EXACTLY WHO IT IS YOU'RE TALKING TO.

I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A COINCIDENCE.

SAME STATION, K-HART.

WE HEARD IT AT STACY'S DANCERCIZE.

THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT RAPE.

AND THE HOST SAID THE PRODUCER THOUGHT

THE WOMEN PROVOKED ATTACKS.

YEAH.

WHEN SHEILA MENTIONED IT, I THOUGHT MAYBE.

BUT NOW MICHELE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I THINK WE'RE GONNA HAVE

A LITTLE HEART-TO-HEART TALK WITH THEM.

PUBLIC TRIAL.

THAT WAY EVERYONE WILL KNOW WHAT YOU ARE.

A MARATHON RUN AND THEN THIS.

YOU GOT HIM, HOOKER.

YOU REALLY GOT HIM.

YEAH. I GOT HIM.

I GUESS HE JUST RAN OUT

OF FIBER.

I'M TELLING YOU, SHE SURE... HOOKER.

MR. HATFIELD, YOU ALL RIGHT?

NO, AS A MATTER OF FACT, I'M NOT ALL RIGHT.

THE DETECTIVES HAVE BEEN AT MY HOUSE MOST OF THE DAY.

DETECTIVES? WHY? WHAT'S WRONG?

YOU MEAN NO ONE'S TOLD YOU?

NOBODY TELLS US ANYTHING, MR. HATFIELD.

WELL, I TOOK MY WIFE TO THE RAMS GAME

THE OTHER NIGHT. THE GIFT TICKETS, REMEMBER?

AND WE WERE GONE AROUND 4 HOURS.

AND WHEN WE CAME HOME,

THE HOUSE WAS CLEANED OUT.

OH, NO.

YOU MEAN THEY... THEY TOOK IT ALL.

COUCHES, CHAIRS, TABLES, LAMPS,

CURTAINS, RUGS. EVEN LIGHT BULBS.

GONE! 11 ROOMS, COMPLETELY EMPTY.

WE'RE VERY SORRY, MR. HATFIELD.

YOU SHOULD BE.

YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN IT WAS A SETUP.

WHAT DO WE PAY YOU FOR?

YOU WERE SWORN TO PROTECT AND SERVE.

YES, SIR, AND WE HAVE SOME PROTECTING AND SERVING TO DO.

I BELIEVE THIS MAN

HAS A DESK OFFICER TYPE PROBLEM.

I HAD A HUNCH HE MIGHT.

IT'S NOT THE END OF THIS, HOOKER. WHEN I'M DONE HERE,

I'M CALLING MY ATTORNEY.

YOU KNOW, HOOKER,

I HAD NO IDEA YOU COULD RUN THE WAY YOU DID.

RUNNING'S NOT ALL PHYSICAL, JUNIOR.

YEAH, YEAH, YOU... YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT.

THE CONTEST BETWEEN YOU AND BIG FOOT

BECAME VERY PRIMAL.

IT WAS NO LONGER A CHASE

BETWEEN PEACE OFFICER AND FELON.

IT WAS A CLASSIC STRUGGLE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL.

THAT'S... THAT'S VERY DRAMATIC, ROMANO.

LET ME GUESS.

FIRST IT WAS TAMMY AT THE HEALTH CLUB

AND NOW YOU'RE BACK TO SHANNON,

THE ASPIRING ACTRESS, RIGHT?

YEAH, WELL, I MAY HAVE BUMPED INTO HER LAST NIGHT.

WELL, GOOD FOR YOU.

I BUMPED INTO A PEPPERONI PIZZA LAST NIGHT.

DOUBLE CHEESE AND NO FIBER.
