[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS ]

Medavoy: GOOD MORNING, JOHN.

UH, EDWARD MILLER. GEORGIA DRIVER'S LICENSE.

SHOT IN THE CHEST.

WHO FOUND HIM?

MANAGER. WE'RE ABOUT WRAPPED UP HERE, ACTUALLY,

SEEING AS WE'VE ALREADY BEEN HERE FOR HALF AN HOUR.

DO WE KNOW WHAT THE D. O. A. WAS IN TOWN FOR?

NO, NOT YET.

WHAT, UH, WE'RE NOT BATHING ANYMORE?

I RAN OUT OF RAZORS. REMIND ME TO PICK SOME UP.

THERE'S NO FORCED ENTRY.

D.O.A. HAD ALL HIS MONEY ON HIM.

PHONE RECORDS?

MANAGER'S FAXING 'EM.

RITA AND THE NEW GIRL ARE GONNA RUN THEM.

GAY JOHN SAYS SHE SEEMS REAL NICE.

YOU WORE THOSE SAME CLOTHES YESTERDAY.

ACTUALLY I BOUGHT ABOUT 10 OF THIS IDENTICAL OUTFIT.

THAT WAY, EACH MORNING

I DON'T HAVE TO WASTE TIME WONDERING WHAT I'M GONNA WEAR.

I THINK I READ EINSTEIN DID THAT SAME THING.

YOU HEAR THAT? EINSTEIN. DUDE WAS A GENIUS.

WHY DON'T YOU GUYS START KNOCKING ON DOORS, HUH?

SO, UH, OUT ALL NIGHT AGAIN?

[ SCOFFS ] WHICH YOU'VE NEVER DONE.

DOESN'T SUIT YOU, JOHN.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

I GOT IT HANDLED. THANKS, THOUGH.

LAURA MURPHY.

SHE TRANSFERRED OVER FROM APPLICANT INVESTIGATIONS.

ANDY SIPOWICZ.

HEY.

GREG MEDAVOY. BALDWIN JONES.

JOHN CLARK.

HOW'S IT GOING?

GREAT. LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU GUYS.

WELCOME ABOARD.

THANKS.

CAME FOR YOU THIS MORNING.

D.O.A. WAS SINGLE, NO KIDS.

I TALKED TO A NEIGHBOR OF HIS IN SAVANNAH.

SHE SAID HE'S A RETIRED DOCTOR,

CAME TO NEW YORK TO RESEARCH A BOOK.

ANYTHING ON THE HOTEL PHONE RECORDS?

ONE CALL TO AND FROM A LARRY PREGITZER.

HE'S ON HIS WAY IN.

SO YOU WERE A DETECTIVE IN APPLICANT INVESTIGATIONS?

RIGHT.

DOING BACKGROUND CHECKS ON PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BE COPS?

EVERYBODY RAGS ON THAT UNIT.

'CAUSE YOU DON'T DO ANY CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS,

AND YOU'RE NOT ON THE STREET.

I DID THREE YEARS IN UNIFORM UP AT THE 7?5,

SO DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME OUT ON THE STREET.

OH, DON'T LISTEN TO HIM.

WE'RE GLAD TO HAVE YOU HERE, LAURA.

P.A.B.?? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

NO IDEA.

WE JUST GOT A CALL ON A HOMELESS D. O. A.

ANY WORD ON WHEN THE NEW LIEUTENANT'S SHOWING UP?

IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SOMETIME TODAY.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?

THAT'S, UH?? THAT'S A DEAD RAT, ANDY.

RUN THIS RETURN ADDRESS. SEE IF IT EVEN EXISTS.

YOU GOT THIS?

YEAH, WE'RE COVERED. GLAD TO HAVE YOU HERE.

THANKS.

P.A.B.?? WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN?

I DON'T KNOW.

[ SNICKERS ]

THIS IS FUNNY TO YOU?

COME ON, IT'S PROBABLY A JOKE BY TOMMY DOYLE

OR ONE OF THE GUYS YOU USED TO WORK WITH.

OH!

THEY'LL LET ANYBODY IN THIS PLACE.

WHAT'S UP, KID?

MY PARTNER, RITA ORTIZ. THIS IS TED KIO.

TED AND I WERE AT THE ACADEMY TOGETHER.

A DETECTIVE IN THE SQUAD.

YEAH, FIRST DAY.

HOW DID YOU LAND A PLUMB JOB LIKE THAT SO QUICK?

MY BOSS AT APPLICANT INVESTIGATIONS,

HE PROMISED TO FAST?TRACK ME IF I GAVE HIM TWO YEARS THERE.

LUCK OF THE IRISH OVER HERE.

YOU HANDLING THIS JOB?

YEAH, D. O. A.'s SEAN O'LEARY, SHOT THREE TIMES.

I'D SEEN HIM AROUND, HAD TO ROUST HIM A COUPLE TIMES??

HIM AND THIS OTHER CHARACTER NAMED KING TUT.

IS THAT KING TUT?

NO, THAT'S ROAD DOG, A. K. A. JASON KEYS.

HE FOUND THE D. O. A., THEN FLAGGED DOWN A RADIO CAR.

DID YOU KNOW THE D. O. A.?

YEAH, HE WAS A REAL BRO, TOO.

DID YOU SEE HIM LAST NIGHT?

WE WERE KICKING IT WITH THESE COUPLE OF SQUARES.

THEY WERE ON, LIKE, THIS FIELD?TRIP THING.

BUT THEY HAD MONEY. THEY WERE PAYING FOR STUFF.

FIELD?TRIP THING?

YES?? HOMELESS OUTREACH PROGRAM, STREET RACE??

SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I DON'T KNOW.

IT WAS A GUY AND A GIRL, REAL SQUARES.

D.O.A. HAVE ANY BEEF WITH ANYONE?

THERE'S ALWAYS BEEFS OUT HERE.

ANYTHING SPECIFIC? NO.

HE WAS A REAL BRO. HE SHARED WHAT HE HAD.

HE HAVE A STREET NAME?

YEAH, THE ILLNESS.

HIS NAME IS SEAN. THEN IT WAS CHRON,

THEN CHRONIC, THEN CHRONIC ILLNESS...

THEN THE ILLNESS.

GOT IT.

IF YOU COULD STICK AROUND A LITTLE BIT, WE'D APPRECIATE IT.

WE WERE GONNA HEAD TO FRISCO TOMORROW.

WE'RE REALLY SORRY.

HEY, THIS KING TUT THE D. O. A. HUNG OUT WITH,

THINK YOU CAN GET YOUR HANDS ON HIM?

FOR YOU? ANYTHING.

OH, YOU'RE THE BEST.

[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS ]

I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT HAPPENED.

YEAH, I'M SURE IT WAS A BIT OF A SHOCK.

HOW LONG DID YOU KNOW DR. MILLER, MR. PREGITZER?

HE WAS OUR FAMILY DOCTOR MANY YEARS AGO,

AND WE STAYED IN TOUCH SINCE.

DID YOU KNOW HE WAS IN TOWN?

HE CALLED ME FROM THE HOTEL HE WAS STAYING AT.

HE MENTION WHAT HE WAS DOING IN TOWN?

SIGHTSEEING.

HE MENTION A BOOK HE WAS WORKING ON, MAYBE THE SUBJECT MATTER?

NO, NO, NOT TO ME.

DID ED TALK ABOUT ANY PROBLEMS HE WAS HAVING OUT HERE

OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT?

HE WAS SINGLE. HE NEVER MARRIED.

[ SIGHS ]

YEAH. GO AHEAD, MR. PREGITZER.

HE TOLD ME LAST NIGHT THAT HE MET A WOMAN IN A BAR,

AND WHEN THEY GOT BACK TO HIS ROOM, SHE WANTED MONEY,

WHICH WAS A SHOCK TO HIM.

HE TOLD ME THAT SHE YELLED AT HIM FOR WASTING HER TIME

AND MADE A FEW THREATS AND LEFT.

HE SAY WHICH BAR HE MET HER?

NO, NO, BUT I ASKED HIM HOW OLD SHE WAS, THOUGH.

AND HE SAID SHE WAS IN HER 30's.

WELL, I TOLD HIM [CHUCKLES] "ED, YOU'RE 70 YEARS OLD.

"NO OFFENSE, BUT DO YOU REALLY THINK A YOUNG WOMAN

"IS GONNA GO BACK TO YOUR HOTEL

AND YOU HAD NO IDEA THAT SHE WAS A PROSTITUTE?"

HE CLAIMS HE DIDN'T.

HE ALWAYS HAD A BIT OF AN EGO, THOUGH.

HE MENTION ANYTHING ELSE IN YOUR CONVERSATION THAT MIGHT HELP US?

NO. IF I REMEMBER ANYTHING, I'LL GIVE YOU A CALL.

THANKS FOR COMING IN, MR. PREGITZER.

HIT UP THE NIGHT CLERK AGAIN AT THE D. O. A.'s HOTEL,

SEE IF HE KNOWS THE NAMES OF THE PROSSES THAT WORK THE PLACE.

SOUNDS GOOD.

NEW LIEUTENANT'S GONNA BE SHOWING UP SOON.

I GOT A RAZOR IN MY LOCKER. YOU MIGHT THINK ABOUT SHAVING.

EH, I'LL WAIT TO SEE IF HE HAS A PROBLEM WITH IT.

BUT YOU KNOW WHO I'M TALKING ABOUT.

OH, YEAH, YEAH, THE ILLNESS. YEAH, HIS REAL NAME IS SEAN.

YEAH, HE'S A NICE ENOUGH KID,

BUT HE'S A PAIN IN THE ASS WHEN HE GETS DRUNK, THOUGH.

DID YOU SEE HIM LAST NIGHT?

IN THE AFTERNOON, NOT LAST NIGHT.

ANYBODY AFTER HIM?

WHY SHOULD I TELL YOU THAT?

OH, I DON'T KNOW, 'CAUSE HE'S DEAD?

YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES

I FELT ONE OF Y'ALL'S NIGHTSTICKS IN MY RIBS?

I AIN'T HELPING YOU PEOPLE.

KING TUT, MY PARTNER, RITA ORTIZ.

CAUGHT THE KING ON A BAD DAY HERE.

SAYS HE DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING.

WITNESS SAID THE D. O. A.

WAS HANGING AROUND TWO WHITE KIDS ON A FIELD TRIP.

NAME OF THE ORGANIZATION MIGHT HAVE BEEN STREET RACE.

YOU HEARD OF IT?

COME ON. DON'T THINK OF IT AS HELPING A COP.

THINK OF IT AS HELPING A FRIEND.

I AIN'T FRIENDS WITH NOBODY.

YOU FRIENDS WITH 20 BUCKS?

STREET EMBRACE. THAT'S WHAT THEY CALL IT.

A BUNCH OF GUILTY RICH PEOPLE

WHO PRETEND THEY HOMELESS ON THE WEEKEND.

[ CHUCKLES ] AND THEY CALL ME CRAZY.

IS STREET EMBRACE A LOCAL THING?

NOW, HOW IN THE HELL WOULD I KNOW?

ARE WE THROUGH UP IN HERE? 'CAUSE I GOT PLACES TO BE.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

HEY, TED, KEEP AN EYE ON KING TUT, WILL YOU?

YOU GOT IT.

THANKS.

[ SIGHS ]

THIS GUY'S SAYING IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A HOOKER INVOLVED.

D.O.A.'s CELL PHONE DUMP COME BACK YET?

YEAH, A COUPLE CALLS TO AN ERIC PREGITZER.

GUY'S RELATED TO THE GUY WE JUST TALKED TO.

THE SON?

HE'S ON HIS WAY IN.

LISTEN, IF YOU, UH, HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, FEEL FREE TO ASK.

I'LL BE HAPPY TO HELP ANY WAY I CAN.

THANKS. I'M SURE I'LL HAVE A TON OF QUESTIONS.

WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO BE A COP?

I ALWAYS WANTED TO BE ONE.

IT JUST DIDN'T MAKE MY DAD AND MY BROTHERS TOO HAPPY.

THEY'RE NOT BIG ON YOU BEING ON THE JOB?

THEY'RE ALL FIREMEN.

AY, AY, AY.

IF YOU GOT A BEEF WITH FIREMEN, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT.

LIEUTENANT THOMAS BALE. HOW'S EVERYONE DOING TODAY?

P.A.A. JOHN IRVIN.

NICE TO MEET YOU. LAURA MURPHY.

RITA ORTIZ. BALDWIN JONES.

GREG MEDAVOY. JOHN CLARK.

ANDY SIPOWICZ.

SO YOU'RE ANDY SIPOWICZ. I HEARD A LOT ABOUT YOU.

I'LL NEED A FEW MINUTES TO GET SETTLED IN,

THEN YOU CAN CATCH ME UP ON ANY CASES YOU'RE WORKING.

LATER I'LL CONDUCT INDIVIDUAL ORIENTATION SESSIONS.

I'VE HEARD THE NAME BALE FROM INTERNAL AFFAIRS.

YOU RELATED?

THAT'S ME.

I REALIZE THAT CARRIES A CERTAIN STIGMA,

BUT I THINK YOU'LL FIND ME TO BE AN EXCELLENT BOSS.

[ SIPOWICZ SIGHS ]

TIME TO START COVERING YOUR ASS WOULD BE RIGHT ABOUT NOW, GUYS.

ON THE RAT PHONE TRADING RAT STORIES WITH HIS RAT BUDDIES.

HEY, LET'S GIVE HIM A CHANCE. HE SEEMS??

THE DEAD RAT.

SOMEBODY MUST'VE KNOWN THIS GUY

WAS GONNA BE OUR LIEUTENANT SOON.

YEAH, YEAH, I GET IT. [ SIGHS ]

HA HA, THAT'S FUNNY.

I TALKED TO A LADY

AT THE LAST HOSPITAL ED MILLER WORKED IN DETROIT.

HE WAS LET GO OVER PERSONALITY ISSUES.

APPARENTLY HE BOUNCED FROM HOSPITAL TO HOSPITAL.

SHE ALSO SAID THAT MILLER

USED TO BE A PROMINENT SEXOLOGIST IN THE '60s.

SEXOLOGIST? Y?YOU MEAN LIKE SEX??

LIKE AN EXPERT ON SEX OR SOMETHING?

EASY THERE, KILLER.

I'M JUST ASKING.

WHERE YOU OFF TO?

OH, UH, WE CONTACTED THE STREET EMBRACE ORGANIZATION.

IT'S RUN OUT OF THIS SELF?AWARENESS FELLOWSHIP PLACE.

A DESCRIPTION OF ONE OF THE GIRLS WHO PARTICIPATED,

A ZOE PRENTICE, MATCHES WHAT WE GOT FROM A WITNESS.

I'LL NEED TO KNOW THESE THINGS.

YOU WERE ON THE PHONE.

INTERRUPT ME NEXT TIME.

SURE.

SORRY.

NO PROBLEM.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ] Irvin: 15th SQUAD.

HI. HEY.

ERIC PREGITZER'S ON HIS WAY UP.

NO ONE AT MILLER'S HOTEL SAW HIM IN THE LOBBY BAR.

NO ONE SAW HIM WALKING THROUGH THE LOBBY WITH THE WOMAN.

DID YOU CATCH ALL THAT, LIEUTENANT?

I DID. THANK YOU.

I RAN ERIC'S ADDRESS. CHECK THAT OUT.

ERIC, WE WANTED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT DR. ED MILLER.

MY DAD TOLD ME WHAT HAPPENED.

WELL, WE SAW ON DR. MILLER'S CELL PHONE RECORDS

THAT HE HAD SOME CALLS INTO YOU YESTERDAY.

WHAT WAS HE CALLING YOU ABOUT?

SUGGESTIONS AND WHAT TO DO IN NEW YORK, YOU KNOW.

HE WAS OUT HERE BY HIMSELF.

DID YOU GIVE HIM ANY SUGGESTIONS AS FAR AS PLACES TO GO??

YOU KNOW, RESTAURANTS, BARS, LIKE THAT?

NO, MORE LANDMARK?TYPE STUFF, YOU KNOW??

THE MET AND GUGGENHEIM.

HEY, ERIC, IN GOING THROUGH SOME OF THE CHECKLIST THINGS WE DO,

YOU KNOW, WE RAN YOUR ADDRESS

TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY CRIMES OR POLICE RESPONSES,

AND IT SAYS HERE YOU TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE THREE YEARS AGO.

THAT'S RIGHT.

THAT'S A PERSONAL MATTER, OBVIOUSLY,

BUT WHAT JUMPED OUT WAS THAT IT WAS DR. MILLER WHO DIALED 911.

THAT'S RIGHT.

WAS HE STAYING WITH YOU?

NO.

IT WAS ACTUALLY KIND OF AN IRONIC SITUATION.

I WAS GOING THROUGH A BREAKUP,

AND IT WAS JUST A REAL LOW POINT FOR ME.

SO I DID SOMETHING REALLY STUPID,

AND DR. MILLER WAS IN TOWN,

AND HE HAPPENED TO STOP BY AFTER I DID IT.

I'M GLAD HE DID 'CAUSE IT SAVED MY LIFE.

SEE, THAT LOOKS A LITTLE ODD TO US.

NO.

I MEAN, I CAN SEE HOW IT MAYBE DOES, BUT IT'S NOT.

ERIC, I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR A LONG TIME.

I'M PRETTY CERTAIN WE'RE NOT GETTING THE WHOLE STORY

AS TO WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT DR. MILLER.

ARE YOU THINKING I KILLED HIM?

WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD I DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?

WERE YOU MORE THAN JUST FRIENDS?

OH, MY GOD.

YOU GUYS ARE REALLY TRIPPING NOW. NO.

DR. MILLER WAS A LONELY OLD GUY

AND DIDN'T KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE.

AND HE JUST KIND OF, LIKE, CLUNG TO MY FAMILY

FOR SOME REASON.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO TELL YOU.

WHERE WERE YOU LAST NIGHT?

WORK AND THEN HOME.

WE'RE GONNA NEED YOUR INFORMATION, IF YOU DON'T MIND.

SO, THE STREET EMBRACE.

YEAH, OH, MY GOD. WHAT A GREAT EXPERIENCE.

YOU GUYS THINK WE HAVE IT ROUGH, RIGHT?

IN YOUR TRAVELS THE LAST FEW DAYS,

DID YOU COME ACROSS A YOUNG HOMELESS GUY

NAMED SEAN O'LEARY?

HIS STREET NAME WAS THE ILLNESS.

YEAH, YEAH, I TALKED TO HIM A LITTLE BIT.

HE WAS GONNA LEAVE FOR SAN FRANCISCO TODAY.

THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

SEAN WAS SHOT AND KILLED LAST NIGHT.

FOR REAL?

YEAH.

OH, MY GOD.

DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT?

NO.

WOW, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT.

WHILE YOU WERE GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER,

SEAN DIDN'T MENTION ANYONE HE WAS AFRAID OF?

HE WAS WITH THIS HARD?CORE GROUP OF HOMELESS STREET KIDS

CALLED THE GUTTER PUNKS.

AND THERE WAS THIS OTHER SUBGROUP CALLED THE CRUSTY PUNKS

THAT THEY DIDN'T GET ALONG WITH.

AND THERE'S ALWAYS THE OLD?TIMER HOMELESS GUYS.

BUT I THINK HE GOT ALONG WITH THEM.

IT IS, LIKE, WILD TO SEE.

BUT NO NAMES? NO.

WHO WAS THE GUY YOU WERE HANGING OUT WITH

WHO WAS ALSO WITH STREET EMBRACE?

CHARLIE, I THINK.

DID YOU GUYS EXCHANGE NUMBERS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT?

NO.

SEE, THE RULES ARE, WHEN YOU SHOW UP,

YOU CAN'T BRING ANY MONEY OR PERSONAL BELONGINGS

OR FOOD OR ANYTHING.

THEY REALLY WANT YOU TO EXPERIENCE BEING HOMELESS.

WE HAD TO BEG AND SLEEP IN SHELTERS.

SEAN'S FRIENDS SAID YOU AND CHARLIE

WERE BUYING THINGS FOR THE GROUP.

I CHEATED A LITTLE. I BROUGHT SOME CASH.

THE PROBLEM WE'RE HAVING IS THE INFORMATION CHARLIE GAVE

TO THE ORGANIZERS OF THE STREET EMBRACE??

HIS I. D., HIS PERSONAL AND CONTACT INFO??

ALL OF IT WAS FAKE.

BUT IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE FIND HIM.

WHILE YOU GUYS WERE HANGING OUT,

DID HE MENTION ANYTHING IN CASUAL CONVERSATION

ABOUT HIS FAMILY OR WHERE HE LIVED,

WHERE HE HUNG OUT, ANYTHING?

NO, 'CAUSE, YOU KNOW, I WASN'T REALLY INTERESTED IN HIS STORY.

I WAS MORE INTO THE STORIES OF THE HOMELESS PEOPLE.

THEY'RE NOT ALL DRUNKS, YOU KNOW.

SOME OF THEM HAD FAMILIES AND COLLEGE EDUCATIONS.

IT'S REALLY SAD.

WELL, IF YOU THINK OF ANYTHING...

SURE.

OH, SOUNDS LIKE A FUN WAY TO SPEND THE WEEKEND, HUH?

CAN I GIVE YOU SOME ADVICE, LAURA?

SURE.

IT'S HARD ENOUGH FOR A FEMALE ON THE JOB TO GET RESPECT.

ONE OF THE WAYS TO LOSE IT

IS IF YOU'RE FLIRTATIOUS WITH THE GUYS.

THEY'LL JUST RUN WITH IT. THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW??

WHO WAS I FLIRTING WITH?

I'M JUST SAYING AS A GENERAL OBSERVATION.

WELL, YOU DIDN'T GENERALLY OBSERVE ME FLIRTING WITH A GUY

'CAUSE I DIDN'T AND I DON'T.

IF THEY DO, IT'S USUALLY HARMLESS,

AND I LET IT SLIDE, AND I DON'T MAKE A BIG DEAL OUT OF IT.

YEAH, I KNOW ALL ABOUT THAT APPROACH,

AND WHAT I'M SAYING IS IF YOU ACT LIKE THAT,

YOU LEAVE YOURSELF OPEN FOR A PROBLEM DOWN THE ROAD.

KEEP IN MIND HERE, RITA,

THIS IS MY FIRST DAY IN THIS SQUAD.

THIS ISN'T MY FIRST DAY ON THE JOB.

HEY, YOU GOT YOUR STYLE, I GOT MINE.

I'VE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH A GUY

IN A WORK SITUATION EVER.

THE ONLY PROBLEMS I'VE EVER HAD

ARE WITH OTHER WOMEN ON THE JOB.

AND I DON'T KNOW WHY IT HAS TO BE LIKE THAT.

I'M JUST GIVING YOU ADVICE. TAKE IT OR DON'T TAKE IT.

KIDS?

TWO DAUGHTERS, FULL GROWN?? UH, ONE MARRIED.

YOU?

NO, STILL LOOKING FOR MRS. RIGHT.

WELL, DON'T BE ASKING ANY FEMALE ADVICE FROM ME,

LIEUTENANT.

WHOO, SWING AND A MISS

WHEN IT COMES TO UNDERSTANDING THE FAIR SEX.

SO, YOU'RE 55, GREG?

THAT'S RIGHT.

HOW MUCH LONGER DO YOU PLAN ON BEING ON THE JOB?

IS THAT A HINT OR SOMETHING?

NO, NO, NO, NO. NOT AT ALL.

YOU AND DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ ARE THE ELDER STATESMEN HERE,

AND I LOOK FORWARD TO LEARNING FROM YOU GUYS.

IT'S JUST I'VE ENCOUNTERED A LOT OF COPS WITH YOUR YEARS

WHO ARE GETTING OUT BECAUSE IT'S DIFFERENT NOW.

A LOT OF THOSE GUYS HAVE HAD A HARD TIME ADJUSTING TO THAT.

I?I CONSIDER MYSELF A STRONG DETECTIVE.

I PLAN ON DOING THIS AS LONG AS I CAN.

GOOD ATTITUDE.

LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU, GREG.

YEAH, YEAH. YOU TOO, LIEUTENANT.

ME AND YOU MIGHT HAVE A REAL PROBLEM WITH THIS GUY, ANDY.

MIGHT?

NO, I'M TALKING ABOUT,

LIKE, IN TERMS OF HIM WANTING YOUNGER DETECTIVES

HE CAN MOLD HOW HE WANTS.

WHAT DO YOU GOT?

I'M 90% SURE THIS IS ACCURATE.

ERIC PREGITZER, THE SON??

10 YEARS AGO, HE LEGALLY CHANGED HIS NAME FROM CYNTHIA.

GET OUT.

I SWEAR TO GOD.

SO, HE WAS A WOMAN? 10 YEARS AGO?

I DON'T KNOW TOO MANY GUYS NAMED CYNTHIA.

THE D. O. A., YOU WERE SAYING

THAT THIS IS SOME BIG EXPERT SEX GUY?

YEAH.

WE GOT TO GET ERIC BACK IN HERE.

HEY, BALLISTICS GOT A MATCH

OFF ONE OF THE SLUGS FOUND IN YOUR HOMELESS D. O. A.

IT CAME BACK TO A GUN

REGISTERED TO A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR

NAMED CHARLES ISADORE.

COMPARISON CAME OFF A SHOOTING HE WAS INVOLVED IN,

BUT, UH, HE KEPT HIS PERMIT.

THAT'S CHARLIE.

LET'S GO GRAB HIM UP.

WE SHOULD TALK TO THE BOSS FIRST, RIGHT?

YEAH, HE, UH?? HE TOLD ME HE LOVES INTERNAL AFFAIRS JOKES.

YOU KNOW, BREAK ONE OUT WHEN YOU'RE IN THERE.

YEAH, RIGHT.

[ PAGER BEEPING ]

I GOT TO BUZZ THIS CHICK BACK REAL QUICK.

YOU WANT TO CALL ERIC FOR ME? THANKS.

HEY, CHIEF, WE'RE WORKING A HOMICIDE.

TWO MINUTES.

LET'S ME AND YOU GET A CUP OF COFFEE, HMM?

IT'S ALMOST DONE BREWING.

YOU KNOW, I REALLY DON'T NEED A SECOND CUP, ANYWAY.

[ SIGHS ]

I'VE BEEN PUTTING MYSELF IN YOUR SHOES, AND, UH...

YOU'VE HAD A REAL TOUGH RUN, JOHN...

WITH YOUR DAD AND THEN JENNIFER.

THOSE ARE TWO BIG LOSSES,

AND ANYBODY WOULD REACT TO THAT.

AND I FEEL LIKE I'VE GIVEN YOU AN APPROPRIATE AMOUNT OF TIME

FOR YOU TO GRIEVE AND DO WHAT YOU NEED TO.

BUT THERE COMES A POINT WHEN IT AFFECTS YOUR WORK

AND IT AFFECTS THE PEOPLE YOU WORK WITH,

AND, I MEAN, ARE YOU TRYING TO PISS ME OFF?

'CAUSE YOU'RE DOING A HELL OF A JOB.

IF YOU WANT ME TO CALL ERIC PREGITZER, I WILL.

THERE'S NO USE FLYING OFF THE HANDLE.

IT'S MORE THAN THAT, AND YOU KNOW IT.

NOW, YOU'RE WALKING AROUND HERE LIKE A SKEL,

HITTING ON THIS NEW GIRL LIKE SOME LECH.

WHOA, I'M JUST MAKING CONVERSATION.

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU'RE TALKING TO?

EVERYTHING YOU JUST LISTED,

IT'S GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH HOW I'M PERFORMING MY JOB.

I MEAN, HAVE I BLOWN OFF ONE DAY OF WORK?

HAVE I SANDBAGGED IT IN ONE INTERVIEW?

HOW MANY NIGHTS YOU BEEN OUT TYING ONE ON IN THE STREETS?

LISTEN TO WHAT YOU JUST SAID.

'CAUSE IT'S GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH WORK.

THAT'S ME OUT HAVING A GOOD TIME, WHICH I'M ENTITLED TO.

SO IF YOU'VE GOT WORK?RELATED ISSUES WITH ME,

LAY IT OUT.

BUT IF IT'S GOT ANYTHING TO DO

WITH HOW I SPEND MY TIME AFTER I PUNCH OUT OF THIS PLACE,

I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT.

GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER, JOHN. I MEAN IT.

HAD A LITTLE TROUBLE FINDING YOU, CHARLIE.

THE INFO YOU GAVE TO STREET EMBRACE WAS ALL FAKE.

YEAH, I DIDN'T WANT THEM HITTING ME UP FOR FUND?RAISERS.

I JUST WANTED TO EXPERIENCE THE TWO DAYS AND LEAVE IT AT THAT.

WHAT WENT WRONG WITH SEAN O'LEARY?

NOTHING. WHY?

ONE OF THE SLUGS THEY PULLED OUT OF SEAN'S DEAD BODY

MATCHES A GUN REGISTERED TO YOU.

SO LET'S SKIP THE TAP DANCE AND GET TO WHAT HAPPENED.

WHAT HAPPENED, CHARLIE?

ZOE?? YOU KNOW, HER DAD'S GOT MAJOR BUCKS.

WELL, SHE GETS THIS WILD HAIR TO GO ON THE STREET EMBRACE

BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO FIND HERSELF.

WELL, PISS OFF, DADDY. WHO THE HELL KNOWS?

BUT HER DAD CALLS MY AGENCY,

SAYS HE'S LOOKING FOR A YOUNG GUY TO DO THE STREET EMBRACE,

SHADOW HIS DAUGHTER,

KEEP HER OUT OF TROUBLE WITHOUT HER KNOWING IT.

SHE NEVER KNEW YOU WERE P. I.?

END OF THE FIRST NIGHT, SHE MADE ME.

I GUESS HER DAD HAD DONE THIS BEFORE.

BUT SHE WAS COOL WITH IT.

ALL SHE TELLS ME IS NOT TO GET IN HER WAY.

SO HOW'D YOU GET MIXED UP WITH SEAN O'LEARY?

IT WAS THE SECOND NIGHT, AND WE WERE ALL HANGING OUT.

SEAN, THE ILLNESS, WHATEVER THE HELL HIS NAME IS,

HE WANTS TO SCORE SOME DOPE.

SO ZOE, SHE PULLS OUT SOME CASH,

WHICH SHE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAVE, AND SHE FRONTS HIM.

HE COMES BACK WITH SOME CRACK. SHE WANTED ECSTASY.

BUT ONCE HE PUT THAT PIPE IN FRONT OF HER,

SHE TOLD ME NOT TO INTERFERE.

WHAT WENT WRONG?

WELL, I GO OFF TO TAKE A PISS, AND THEN I HEAR SCREAMING.

SO I COME RUNNING BACK, AND I SEE ZOE YELLING AT HIM,

CALLING HIM A NO?GOOD BUM, A PIECE OF GARBAGE.

I GUESS HE MUST'VE MADE A MOVE ON HER.

'CAUSE HE SAYS, "YOU'D BE LUCKY TO HAVE SEX WITH ME,

YOU UGLY PIG."

THAT'S WHEN HER EYES GO WIDE,

AND SHE TURNS TO ME AND SAYS, "SHOOT HIM."

HE WAS HIGH AS A KITE.

SO YOU SHOT HIM.

HELL, NO. I TELL HER, "LET'S GET OUT OF HERE."

BUT SHE KEEPS SCREAMING AT ME TO SHOOT HIM,

AND HE KEEPS LAUGHING AND CALLING HER AN UGLY PIG.

I CAN BARELY KEEP MY EYES OPEN

'CAUSE I HAVEN'T SLEPT IN THE LAST TWO DAYS.

AND THEN, FOR A SECOND,

IT LOOKED LIKE SHE WAS GONNA CHILL OUT.

SO THEN I GUESS I LET MY GUARD DOWN.

'CAUSE THE NEXT THING I KNOW,

SHE'S GOT MY GUN, AND SHE'S POINTING IT AT THE ILLNESS,

DARING HIM TO SAY IT AGAIN.

HE DID.

SHE SHOT HIM...THREE TIMES.

WHAT'D YOU DO AT THAT POINT?

I TOOK THE GUN FROM HER.

I TOLD HER THAT SHE NEEDED TO GO HER WAY AND THAT I'D GO MINE,

AND HOPEFULLY THIS WOULDN'T COME BACK TO BITE US IN THE ASS.

HELL OF A STORY THERE, CHARLIE.

I WISH I COULD'VE PREVENTED IT.

I WISH I NEVER WOULD'VE TAKEN THAT JOB.

AND GOD KNOWS, WHAT THE HELL MADE HER WANT TO HANG OUT

WITH A BUNCH OF WINOS FOR A WEEKEND,

BUT THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED.

YOU'RE GONNA NEED TO STICK AROUND.

YEAH, I KNOW.

THERE'S NO EASY WAY TO BROACH THIS, ERIC,

SO I'LL JUST LAY IT OUT.

YOU CHANGED YOUR NAME LEGALLY 10 YEARS AGO, RIGHT?

THAT'S RIGHT.

AND SINCE IT WAS A FEMALE NAME YOU HAD BEFORE,

THAT WOULD INDICATE YOU HAD A SEX CHANGE, RIGHT?

WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?

YES OR NO? YEAH.

IN LOOKING INTO DR. MILLER'S BACKGROUND,

WE SAW THAT HE WAS A SEX AND GENDER EXPERT BACK IN THE DAY.

DID DR. MILLER PERFORM YOUR SEX?CHANGE OPERATION?

ERIC?

ERIC.

I THINK I'M GONNA THROW UP.

I'M OKAY.

WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT WITH DR. MILLER?

I DON'T KNOW. I DIDN'T KILL HIM.

DID HE OR DIDN'T HE

PERFORM YOUR SEX CHANGE 10 YEARS AGO?

NO, I?I HAD IT DONE HERE IN THE CITY

BY A DR. RICHARD BROUSSAR, AND YOU CAN CHECK.

ERIC...WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON HERE?

NOTHING. I DON'T KNOW.

I WAS AT HOME LAST NIGHT.

THIS ISN'T GOING AWAY. WE'RE NOT GOING AWAY.

SO JUST TELL US WHAT HAPPENED. WE CAN HELP YOU.

I WAS AT HOME WATCHING TELEVISION,

AND THEN I WENT TO WORK.

I WROTE ALL THAT DOWN THE LAST TIME??

NO ONE CAN CONFIRM

WHETHER YOU WERE HOME BY YOURSELF OR NOT.

I DIDN'T KILL DR. MILLER.

YOU'VE BEEN CARRYING AROUND THIS BIG SECRET

FOR 10 YEARS.

YOU THOUGHT IT WAS ALL BEHIND YOU.

THIS LONELY OLD MAN COMES BACK INTO YOUR LIFE

AND MAYBE BLACKMAILS YOU FOR MONEY

OR TO DO THINGS FOR HIM THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO DO.

HMM?

NOW, IF SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPENED, ERIC,

IT'S ALL VERY UNDERSTANDABLE YOU REACTED IN A BAD WAY.

I WORK MY JOB. I MIND MY OWN BUSINESS.

I NEVER HURT ANYBODY IN MY LIFE.

I MEAN, THAT IS THE GOD'S HONEST TRUTH.

CHARLIE'S OUT OF HIS MIND?? OUT OF HIS MIND.

WHICH PART ARE YOU DISPUTING?

UH, THE PART WHERE I SHOT THAT GUY.

I MEAN, ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THAT'S RETARDED.

NOT IN A MILLION YEARS WOULD I DO THAT.

HOW'D SEAN O'LEARY GET KILLED THEN?

I DON'T KNOW. YES, WE WERE HANGING OUT.

YES, I SMOKED A LITTLE,

AND YES, I PROBABLY SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN DOING THAT.

BUT AFTER SEAN TRIED TO FORCE MY HEAD DOWN ON HIS CROTCH

AND AFTER HE CALLED ME THOSE NAMES,

I STARTED CRYING, AND I TURNED AROUND, AND I BOLTED.

SO, CHARLIE SHOT HIM?

I'M NOT SAYING THAT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

BUT WHEN I LEFT, CHARLIE AND SEAN WERE STANDING THERE.

ALL RIGHT.

SINCE IT'S YOUR WORD AGAINST CHARLIE'S,

AND THE BULLET MATCHES HIS GUN, THIS FALLS ON CHARLIE.

HE'S GETTING CHARGED WITH MURDER.

YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT?

OF COURSE I'M NOT OKAY WITH THAT...

BECAUSE, IN A WAY, CHARLIE WAS STANDING UP FOR ME.

BUT I LEFT. I DIDN'T SHOOT THAT GUY.

ALL RIGHT, THEN.

WE'RE GONNA NEED YOU TO WRITE THAT UP.

WHERE YOU AT?

THE SON COPPED TO THE SEX CHANGE,

BUT HE'S STILL DENYING INVOLVEMENT.

SO WE GOT HIS DAD COMING IN, AND WE'LL GO AT HIM AGAIN.

WHERE'S THE SON NOW?

IN THE COFFEE ROOM.

WE'RE LETTING HIM CALM DOWN A BIT.

IT'S FOR YOU, DETECTIVE.

SIPOWICZ.

WHO IS THIS?

SAY WHO YOU ARE, YOU BIG PUSSY.

HELLO?

P.A.B. AGAIN.

THAT'S ALL THE GUY SAID?? P. A. B.

JOHN, SO A SEARCH FOR ANYBODY WITH THE INITIALS P. A. B.

EITHER ON THE JOB OR IN THE SYSTEM.

WHAT'S P. A. B.?

I DON'T KNOW.

ANYTHING STAND FOR P.A.B. THAT YOU KNOW OF?

POLICE ATHLETIC?? NO, I DON'T KNOW. SORRY.

LET'S ASK GRIZZLY ADAMS HERE...

REFERRING TO THE STUBBLE YOU GOT GOING.

I'LL BE CLEAN?SHAVEN TOMORROW.

THAT'D BE APPROPRIATE.

Ortiz: WE GOT A LITTLE BIT OF A DEADLOCK HERE, BOSS.

THE BODYGUARD'S PUTTING IT ON ZOE.

ZOE'S SAYING SHE WALKED AWAY

WHILE THE BODYGUARD AND THE D. O. A. WERE STILL ARGUING.

THEY'RE BOTH DUG IN ON THEIR STORIES.

THE BODYGUARD'S DOWNSTAIRS IN A CELL.

ZOE'S IN INTERVIEW THREE.

WE'RE GONNA LET THEM THINK ABOUT IT A WHILE.

RELEASE THE GIRL. KEEP HIM IN CUSTODY.

GET THE D. A.'s OFFICE HIP

AND LET THEM DECIDE HOW THEY WANT TO PROCEED

'CAUSE I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO AN OVERTIME SITUATION

IF THEY'RE BOTH DUG IN.

WE'RE NOT ANGLING FOR OVERTIME.

FINE, BUT JUST GIVE IT TO THE D. A.

PROBLEM IS, WE TEND TO BELIEVE THE BODYGUARD.

INCLUDE THAT IN YOUR CONVERSATION WITH THE D. A.

BUT BASED ON JUST THE FACTS,

THEY'LL GO FOR A DEAL, WHICH MIGHT BE A RAILROAD.

THIS WAY, MR. PREGITZER.

GIVE IT TO THE D. A.'s OFFICE.

LET THEM DECIDE WHAT THEY WANT TO DO.

YOU'RE COVERING FOR YOUR SON, AREN'T YOU, MR. PREGITZER?

WHEN DR. MILLER CALLED LAST NIGHT,

IT WASN'T ABOUT SOME WHORE WHO GOT THE WRONG IDEA

BECAUSE WE LOOKED INTO IT,

AND THERE'S NO INDICATION OF ANY OF THAT HAPPENING.

OKAY, THEN HERE'S WHAT HAPPENS.

THIS CASE GOES TO A GRAND JURY. THIS CASE GOES PUBLIC.

AND THAT SECRET

THAT ERIC HAS BEEN WORKING SO HARD TO KEEP A LID ON,

EVERYBODY'S GONNA KNOW.

DO YOU WANT THAT FOR YOUR SON?

ERIC'S BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH AS IT IS...

MORE THAN ANY PERSON SHOULD HAVE TO ENDURE.

DID DR. MILLER KNOW ABOUT THE SEX CHANGE?

DID HE PERFORM IT?

HE DID THE FIRST ONE.

WHICH FIRST ONE?

WHEN ERIC WAS AN INFANT.

WHEN HE GOT CIRCUMCISED, THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT.

WHAT KIND OF AN ACCIDENT, MR. PREGITZER?

THE DEVICE THAT THEY USED WAS ELECTRIC.

THERE WAS A MALFUNCTION, AND HE WAS BURNED.

THE WHOLE ORGAN WAS?? IT WAS GONE.

AND, UH, DR. MILLER??

HE CAME INTO YOUR LIFE AT THAT POINT?

HE HEARD ABOUT IT SOMEHOW. HE APPROACHED ME AND MY WIFE.

HE HAD THIS THEORY ABOUT NATURE VERSUS NURTURE,

AND, WELL, HE ASSURED US IT WOULD WORK.

SO HE PERFORMED THE SURGERY ON ERIC?

YES.

AND IT WAS PART OF DR. MILLER'S THEORY

THAT ONCE WE COMMITTED TO IT, WE COULD NEVER TELL ERIC.

WELL, THAT DIDN'T WORK.

IN HIS HEART, ERIC ALWAYS KNEW THAT HE WAS A BOY.

AND SO FINALLY, WE TOLD HIM WHEN HE WAS 18.

THREE YEARS AGO, ERIC TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE.

DR. MILLER WOULDN'T LEAVE HIM ALONE.

WHEN DR. MILLER CALLED HIM

AND SAID HE WAS COMING OVER FOR A TALK,

THAT WAS TOO MUCH FOR ERIC TO TAKE.

THAT'S WHEN I TOLD HIM

THAT IF HE EVER TRIED TO CONTACT ERIC AGAIN, I'D KILL HIM.

ARE YOU COVERING FOR YOUR SON, MR. PREGITZER?

NO. I WENT TO DR. MILLER'S HOTEL LAST NIGHT.

I KNOCKED ON THE DOOR.

HE ANSWERED IT, AND I SHOT HIM.

ALL RIGHT.

SEE, I'D FORGIVEN DR. MILLER FOR WHAT HAPPENED BACK THEN.

WE AGREED TO IT. IT SEEMED LIKE THE ONLY OPTION.

BUT WHEN HE KEPT POPPING UP INTO ERIC'S LIFE,

WELL, I WARNED HIM.

HE WOULDN'T LISTEN.

WHY WOULDN'T HE LEAVE YOUR SON ALONE?

I DON'T KNOW. I MEAN, HE WAS OBSESSED.

IT WAS LIKE ERIC WAS HIS FRANKENSTEIN OR SOMETHING.

HE KEPT WANTING ERIC TO GO PUBLIC

SO THAT HE COULD GO DOWN IN HISTORY, I GUESS.

[ SIGHS ]

I DON'T KNOW.

ALL RIGHT, LISTEN TO ME.

WE'RE GONNA GO TALK TO ERIC TO CONFIRM THIS.

ONCE WE DO, WE'RE GONNA COME BACK HERE

AND HELP YOU WITH YOUR STATEMENT.

OKAY.

WHAT'S UP, TED?

REMEMBER YOU ASKED ME

TO KEEP AN EYE ON THAT KING TUT CHARACTER?

YEAH. ANYTHING?

DID YOU GIVE HIM ANY MONEY FOR COOPERATING?

20 BUCKS. WHY?

I JUST SAW HIM WALK INTO A HOTEL NEARBY

WITH ALL?NEW GEAR AND A HOOKER ON HIS ARM.

WHICH HOTEL?

THE CAMDEN ARMS OVER ON SECOND.

YOU OWE ME A COLD ONE FOR THIS.

YOU GOT IT.

Clark: IS THAT WHAT HAPPENED?

MEANING WHAT?

YOU DID THIS, AND YOUR DAD IS COVERING FOR YOU.

NO.

YOU WERE HOME LAST NIGHT.

DR. MILLER?? HE CALLED ME

AND SAID HE WAS PLANNING ON WRITING A BOOK

ON THE SURGERY, ON MY LIFE, HOW HE SAVED ME.

HE NEVER GOT IT. HE'D JUST NEVER ADMIT IT.

I ALWAYS FELT I WAS A BOY.

HERE I WAS WEARING A DRESS, GETTING TEASED,

JUST WISHING I WAS DEAD.

EVERY YEAR I'D GO, AND I'D HAVE THESE THERAPY SESSIONS WITH HIM,

AND I'D TELL HIM THESE THINGS, AND HE WOULDN'T LISTEN.

EVEN AFTER MY PARENTS TOLD ME,

AND EVEN AFTER I HAD MY SEX CHANGED BACK,

HE'D NEVER ADMIT THAT HE WAS WRONG.

HE NEVER APOLOGIZED.

DID YOU KNOW YOUR DAD

WAS GONNA GO OVER THERE LAST NIGHT?

NO.

ALL I DID WAS TELL HIM THAT DR. MILLER HAD FOUND ME AGAIN,

AND HE WANTED TO WRITE THE BOOK.

MY DAD SAID HE'D TAKE CARE OF IT.

WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TO MY DAD NOW?

WE'RE GONNA DO EVERYTHING WE CAN

TO SEE IF THIS CAN GO DOWN AS MANSLAUGHTER.

I DON'T BLAME MY DAD FOR WHAT HAPPENED TO ME AS A KID.

I MEAN, THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO.

A?ALL I'M SAYING IS, HE'S NOT A KILLER.

HE'S NOT A BAD GUY.

BUT DR. MILLER WOULDN'T LEAVE ME ALONE.

ALL RIGHT. WAIT HERE, OKAY?

I GOT AN IDEA HOW TO WORK THIS, SO JUST FOLLOW MY LEAD.

FINE.

Clark: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?

WAIT OUTSIDE. I'LL BE WITH YOU IN A MINUTE.

WE'D LIKE TO HAVE A QUICK WORD WITH YOU, LIEUTENANT.

IN A MINUTE. NOW, WAIT OUTSIDE.

NO. WE REALLY NEED TO TALK...NOW.

I'M NOT GONNA SAY IT AGAIN, DETECTIVE.

NOW, GET OUT OF HERE.

[ SIGHS ]

WHERE'D YOU GET THE MONEY FOR ALL THIS?

I TOLD YOU. I HAD A SCRATCHER THAT PLAYED OFF BIG.

WHERE'D YOU BUY IT?

AT A BODEGA.

WHERE? ALBUQUERQUE!

WHERE IN THE HELL DO YOU THINK I BOUGHT IT?

HERE IN THE CITY.

LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING, KING.

WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE HEADED TO

IN THE NEXT FIVE MINUTES??

BACK OUTDOORS OR DOWN TO AN 8x10 CELL?

AND I'M NOT JOKING.

I AIN'T GOT NO MONEY. IT'S ALL GONE.

AND YOU AIN'T GETTING THAT BACK.

WHERE DID YOU GET IT?

FROM THIS WHITE CHICK NAMED ZOE

THAT WAS HANGING OUT WITH THE ILLNESS LAST NIGHT.

WHY'D SHE GIVE IT TO YOU?

OKAY, NOW IF THE SITUATION HAD BEEN JUST REVERSED,

AND THAT HAD BEEN ME LAYING DOWN THERE SHOT,

AND THE ILLNESS HAD BEEN OFFERED CASH,

HE WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME DAMN THING.

SO I AIN'T GOT NO GUILT ON MY CONSCIOUSNESS.

WHY DID ZOE GIVE YOU MONEY?

I WAS HEADED BACK UP TO THE SQUAT LAST NIGHT,

AND I SEE THIS CRAZY BITCH POINTING A GUN AT THE ILLNESS

AND YELLING, "SAY IT AGAIN. SAY IT AGAIN."

WELL, HE MUST'VE SAID WHAT HE WASN'T SUPPOSED TO SAY

'CAUSE SHE WENT POW, POW, POW, AND THE ILLNESS WAS DOWN.

AND I JUMPED BACK IN THE SHADOWS.

AND THE DUDE THAT WAS WITH HER,

HE CAME UP AND SAID SOMETHING TO HER

AND TOOK THE GUN AND BOOGIED,

AND SHE JUST STOOD THERE.

AND I WALKED UP TO HER,

AND I SAID, "GIRL, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE HELL YOU JUST DONE?"

AND WHAT'D SHE SAY?

SHE'S YIPPING AND YELLING ABOUT WHO KNOWS WHAT.

GIRL WAS HIGH, Y'ALL.

SHE PROMISED ME MONEY IF I KEPT HER SECRET.

AND I SAID I HAD TO THINK ABOUT IT.

SHE SAID, "$5,000 CASH,"

AND I SAID I WAS DONE THINKING ABOUT IT.

AND I MET HER

IN FRONT OF THE LIQUOR STORE ON BLEECKER STREET 10:30 A. M.

'CAUSE SHE SAID SHE HAD TO WAIT TILL HER BANK OPEN.

WAIT HERE.

BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING, THE TIMING OF THAT SUCKED,

AND I'M SORRY FOR THAT.

OBVIOUSLY, I WOULD HAVE PREFERRED

THAT WE'D HAD A CHANCE TO TALK

ABOUT A SCENARIO LIKE THAT BEFORE IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED.

WHAT WAS YOUR PROBLEM WITH WHAT HAPPENED?

HOW EXACTLY WERE YOU GONNA HELP HIM WITH HIS STATEMENT?

WERE YOU GONNA SUGGEST

THAT THE D. O. A. WAS THREATENING TO KILL HIM WHEN HE DIDN'T?

WERE YOU GONNA TELL HIM TO SAY THAT THE D. O. A. CAME AT HIM

IN A THREATENING MANNER WHEN HE HADN'T?

DID YOU NOT HEAR WHAT THE SON WENT THROUGH?

I DID, AND IT'S MESSED UP.

AND IF THIS GOES TO TRIAL, THE JURY WILL HEAR IT, TOO,

AND THEY'LL DO THEIR JOBS.

ARE YOU GONNA TAKE STATEMENTS FOR US NOW?

HMM? TYPE THE FIVES, TESTIFY IN COURT?

NO. BECAUSE NOW WE'RE CLEAR,

AND SOMETHING LIKE THAT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH CONTACT YOU'VE HAD

WITH THE REAL WORLD

WHILE YOU WERE OUT THERE LOCKING UP COPS.

I HAD PLENTY OF CONTACT.

OKAY. HAVING DONE THIS FOR A WHILE??

MAKE ANOTHER COMMENT LIKE THAT AGAIN, AND YOU KNOW?

WE'RE GONNA HAVE A REAL PROBLEM.

I'M SORRY. THAT CAME ACROSS WRONG, LIEUTENANT.

IT'S JUST THAT WHEN YOU DEAL WITH A WIDE SPECTRUM OF PEOPLE,

YOU SOMETIMES COME ACROSS A GOOD PERSON

WHO DID A BAD THING.

THOSE PEOPLE DESERVE CONSIDERATION.

AND BEING ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT CONSIDERATION

HAS BEEN A LONG?STANDING TRADITION

IN THE NEW YORK CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT.

THIS STATION IS THE ONLY PLACE IN THE WHOLE SYSTEM

WHERE JUSTICE IS REALLY DONE.

IN A FENDER BENDER, MAYBE.

BUT NOT WHEN IT INVOLVES MURDER.

IN THAT CIRCUMSTANCE, YOUR JOB AS A DETECTIVE

IS TO ASCERTAIN WHAT HAPPENED AND THEN DOCUMENT WHAT HAPPENED.

YOUR JOB IS NOT TO REINTERPRET

OR RE?CREATE THE FACTS OF A HOMICIDE AS YOU SEE FIT.

I'M SORRY, BUT THIS CONVERSATION IS OVER.

KICK THE SON, PROCESS THE DAD.

WE'RE DONE, GUYS.

[ CLEARS THROAT ] I GOT 32 YEARS ON THIS JOB.

I ALWAYS PLANNED ON LEAVING ON MY TERMS,

AND THAT DAY'S NOT TOO FAR AWAY.

BUT IF I CAN'T DO MY JOB, ONE THAT I CAN LIVE WITH MORALLY,

THEN I'M OUT THE DOOR.

EVENTUALLY THAT'S A DECISION THAT EVERY COP HAS TO MAKE.

IT'S NEVER AN EASY ONE.

ANDY, YOU DRIVE YOUR CAR TODAY? YEAH.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA LIKE THIS.

YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.

[ SIGHS ]

P.A.B.

WHAT'S IT SAY?

ANDY.

"PAYBACK'S A BITCH."

THIS ISN'T A JOKE.

WHERE'S ZOE?

WITH HER ATTORNEY.

WE'LL GET HER TO CENTRAL BOOKING AFTERWARDS.

DESK SERGEANT TOLD ME YOU HAD A COP KEEPING AN EYE ON A WITNESS.

YEAH. COP'S NAME WAS TED KIO.

THAT'S REALLY HEADS?UP.

I'LL PUT A GOOD WORD IN FOR YOU WITH THE CHIEF.

OR YOU COULD JUST PUT A GOOD WORD IN FOR TED.

HE DID ALL THE LEGWORK.

WELL, IT WAS A LITTLE ROCKY TODAY,

BUT IT'S IMPORTANT THAT YOU ALL KNOW SOMETHING.

NO DISRESPECT TO FORMER BOSSES,

BUT I WAS SENT HERE TO REPLACE SERGEANT GIBSON

BECAUSE IT'S THE DEPARTMENT'S PERCEPTION

THAT THIS IS A ROGUE OUTFIT.

SO I COME WITH A SPECIFIC MANDATE FROM MY BOSSES

TO MAKE THIS SQUAD REFLECT TODAY'S JOB, TODAY'S POLICING.

AND IT'S GONNA HAPPEN.

SO I ASK THAT YOU JOIN ME IN ACCOMPLISHING

WHAT I'VE BEEN INSTRUCTED TO DO.

IN RETURN, YOU'LL HAVE MY COMPLETE ALLEGIANCE AND SUPPORT.

IF YOU ELECT NOT TO, YOU WON'T BE WORKING HERE ANYMORE.

I'M AFRAID IT'S THAT SIMPLE.

AND I HOPE THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN FOR ANYONE HERE.

HAVE A GOOD NIGHT. I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

[ LAUGHS ]

ALL RIGHT, CAN IT, JOHN.

HOW PERFECT WAS THAT, HUH?

WE'RE SO SCREWED.

I'M ON MY LAST NERVE AS IT IS,

SO LOSE THE STUPID GRIN

OR I'M GONNA JUMP ACROSS THIS DESK.

ALL RIGHT, GUYS. COME ON.

MAYBE I SHOULD TAKE OFF, THEN.

GOOD IDEA.

YOU GOT THE FIVES?

YOU HURRY UP AND GET YOUR ASS INTO HAPPY HOUR.

READ MY MIND.

HEY, FIRST?DAY BEER CELEBRATION ON ME.

I'M FINE. THANKS, THOUGH.

ALL RIGHT.

WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO, ANDY?

[ SIGHS ] NOTHING.

I AIN'T CHANGING A DAMN THING.
