PREVIOUSLY ON "NYPD BLUE"...

I JUST PUT IN MY PAPERS.

SO TAKE IT EASY.

I'LL SEE YOU AROUND.

YOU BETTER HOPE NOT.

WHEN THEY WERE SERVICING THE CAR,

THEY FOUND A LISTENING DEVICE.

WHOEVER TALKED MY SON INTO THAT CAR

KNEW THINGS TO SAY TO HIM.

IF CRIMES HAVE BEEN COMMITTED,

THEY'RE TO BE INVESTIGATED BY THE SQUAD OR I. A. B.

THEY'RE NOT TO BE INVESTIGATED BY YOU PERSONALLY.

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO YOUR KID,

I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

IF I FIND OUT YOU'RE LYING,

I'M COMING DOWN ON YOU HARDER THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE.

I DON'T WANT TO WORK WITH YOU NO MORE.

YOU DON'T WANT ME? I DON'T WANT YOU.

WE GET A DIVORCE.

RIGHT, LET'S LET IT GO AT THAT.

DROP DEAD!

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

YEAH, SIPOWICZ.

WHERE IS HE?

I'M ON MY WAY.

TALENT POOL IS GETTING A LITTLE THIN AROUND HERE,

MY FRIEND.

MIGHT BE TIME TO HEAD HOME.

OH, TRYING TO GET RID OF ME OR WHAT?

NOT AT ALL.

OKAY, THEN, GIVE ME ANOTHER BEER.

HEY, ANDY.

ARE YOU DONE?

CLUB SODA FOR MY FRIEND.

I DON'T WANT NO CLUB SODA.

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

WHAT "GO"? IT'S NOT EVEN LAST CALL YET.

HOW'D YOU KNOW TO FIND ME HERE?

I WAS WALKING MY DOG. I SAW YOU THROUGH THE WINDOW.

YOU GOT A DOG?

JOHN, IT'S TIME TO GO.

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

SECOND OF ALL, GIVE ME MY KEYS.

YOU AIN'T GETTING YOUR KEYS.

GIVE ME MY KEYS. THOSE ARE MY KEYS.

COME ON, JOHN, GET UP.

GET OFF OF ME!

HE GETS READY TO LEAVE, CALL HIM A CAB.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

YOU DON'T WANT TO STICK AROUND AND COUNSEL ME, HUH?

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.

[ GUNSHOTS ]

YOU HIT?

I'M ALL RIGHT.

WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

I DON'T KNOW.

STAY DOWN.

I GOT THIS, ANDY. STAY THERE.

[ GROANS ]

SOMEBODY CALL AN AMBULANCE.

CALL AN AMBULANCE!

I SAW CONNIE DOWNSTAIRS.

SHE SAYS YOU'RE GOING TO WORK?

COUPLE OF STITCHES, I'M FINE.

WHERE'S THE BOSS?

HE WENT BACK TO THE HOUSE WITH ORTIZ AND MURPHY.

SO WHAT WERE YOU DOING AT THE BAR AT THAT HOUR,

IF YOU DON'T MIND MY ASKING?

GOT A CALL FROM THE HOUSE

THAT CLARK WAS HAVING A PROBLEM.

IT WAS LEGIT?

IN THE SENSE THAT HE WAS HAVING A PROBLEM?

YEAH.

BUT YOU DON'T KNOW WHO CALLED THE HOUSE?

NO.

I WONDER IF WHOEVER'S BEEN DOING HARASSING

UPPED THE ANTE.

I DOUBT IT.

THE WAY THIS GUY'S GOTTEN TO ME, IF HE WANTED TO KILL ME,

HE WOULDN'T TAKE SOME WILD SHOTS OUTSIDE A BAR.

I GUESS IT'S POSSIBLE HE WAS GOING FOR CLARK.

MAYBE.

UNLESS IT WAS RANDOM.

LET'S GO.

YOU KNOW DETECTIVE JOHN CLARK?

YEP.

YOU SAW HIM IN THE BAR LAST NIGHT?

OH, YEAH.

DID YOU NOTICE ANYTHING HE MIGHT HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN?

A FIGHT, AN ARGUMENT.

TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH, I WAS KIND OF BUSY LAST NIGHT.

AH, THE HELL WITH IT.

HE WAS A PAIN IN THE ASS LAST NIGHT,

SAME AS HE'S BEEN A PAIN IN THE ASS

FOR THE LAST FOUR OR FIVE WEEKS RUNNING.

WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?

GETTING LOADED, SLOPPY, GETTING INTO ARGUMENTS.

IT'S ONE THING AFTER ANOTHER.

DID SOMETHING SPECIFIC HAPPEN LAST NIGHT

THAT MIGHT HAVE LED TO SOMEBODY COMING BACK WITH A GUN?

I WOULDN'T DOUBT IT.

ALL I CAN TELL YOU

IS THAT I WISH YOU'D ENCOURAGE HIM

TO DO HIS DRINKING SOMEPLACE ELSE,

BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO BE CALLING FOR SOMEBODY

TO COME AND PICK HIM UP EVERY NIGHT.

YOU'RE THE ONE WHO CALLED?

RIGHT, I'M THE ONE THAT CALLED.

AND I HATE LIKE HELL TO HAVE DONE IT.

BUT AT A CERTAIN POINT, ENOUGH'S ENOUGH.

CAN YOU TELL US ANYONE SPECIFIC

WHO CLARK MIGHT HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH?

NO.

IS THERE ANYONE WHO COULD TELL US?

SEE, I HATE THIS.

A DETECTIVE WAS SHOT LAST NIGHT.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME THAT, I KNOW.

[ SIGHS ]

LISTEN, I GOT A GUY WHO'S WORKING THE DOOR ??

HE'S AN OFF?DUTY COP.

HE GOT OFF BEFORE THE SHOOTING.

MAYBE HE SAW SOMETHING BEFORE HE LEFT.

WE NEED TO TALK TO HIM.

I KNOW YOU DO, ONLY I AIN'T GIVING HIM UP.

I'LL TALK TO HIM, EXPLAIN THE SITUATION.

HE WANTS TO COME IN, IT'S UP TO HIM.

THAT'S NOT GONNA WORK.

AND IF WE HAVE TO FIND HIM ON OUR OWN,

BOTH OF YOU ARE GONNA HAVE A PROBLEM.

HOW ARE YOU, DETECTIVE?

I'M ALL RIGHT.

WE NEED YOU IN ONE PIECE AROUND HERE, PLEASE.

I KNOW.

THERE ARE SOME FRIENDS TO SEE YOU.

I SHOWED THEM TO THE COFFEE ROOM.

WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING HERE?

WE'RE DOING THE SAME THING YOU'D BE DOING.

Woman: CAN WE MAYBE GO OUT FOR A CUP OF COFFEE?

CAN'T WE DO IT HERE?

UH, SURE, YEAH, THAT'S OKAY.

SO, WHAT BRINGS YOU?

WE CARE ABOUT YOU.

WE CARE ABOUT YOU, AND WE LOVE YOU.

YOU HAVE A HOME GROUP.

THAT MEANS THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE THERE

WHEN YOU GET INTO TROUBLE.

ARE YOU UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT I STARTED DRINKING?

THE IMPORTANT THING IS WHAT COMES NEXT.

WHO TOLD YOU THAT?

I WANT TO KNOW.

I GOT A CALL. FROM WHO, AL?

WHAT DO WE SAY, ANDY? PRINCIPLES BEFORE PERSONALITIES.

Woman: THE WHO DOESN'T MATTER.

LISTEN, SOMEBODY ?? FOR WHATEVER REASON ??

HAS BEEN PLAYING SOME KIND OF GAME WITH ME.

THEY SENT STUFF TO ME, THEY TALKED TO MY KID.

THIS IS PART OF THAT.

YOU STILL DON'T PICK UP A DRINK.

I DIDN'T PICK UP A DRINK!

IF YOU DID, YOU DID.

[ SIGHING ]

ALL RIGHT, THANKS FOR COMING, GUYS.

I APPRECIATE IT.

YEAH.

WHAT CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT LAST NIGHT, DETECTIVE?

IT WAS A PRETTY UNEVENTFUL NIGHT, UNTIL THE END.

THERE WAS APPARENTLY ENOUGH AN EVENT BEFORE

SO THE BARTENDER PUT IN A CALL TO GET YOU TAKEN OUT OF THERE.

IF IT'S THE GUY I THINK IT IS, HE'S GOT A THING ABOUT COPS.

I WOULDN'T PUT TOO MUCH INTO IT.

HOW MUCH HAD YOU HAD TO DRINK?

A FEW BEERS.

YOU HAVE ANY ALTERCATIONS WITH ANYONE?

THAT WOULD LEAD TO A SHOOTING, NO.

ANY ALTERCATIONS AT ALL? NO, SIR.

I'LL EXPECT YOU TO BE FORTHCOMING

THROUGH THE COURSE OF THIS INVESTIGATION, DETECTIVE.

ABSOLUTELY.

PROBABLY YOU GOT OTHER THINGS ON YOUR MIND RIGHT NOW,

BUT SHOULD YOU WANT TO GET INTO IT,

I GOT BACK SOME INFORMATION ON HOW IT IS

YOUR CREDIT CARD WAS USED TO ORDER THAT CHILD PORNOGRAPHY.

HOW?

A REQUEST FOR A CREDIT HISTORY

FROM A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR.

HATCHER?

HIS AGENCY. I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS HIM DIRECTLY.

THANKS, GREG.

DOESN'T THIS MAKE YOU LIKE HIM MORE FOR THE SHOOTER?

NO.

STILL THINK IT WAS MORE LIKELY INTENDED FOR CLARK.

OR RANDOM.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I FIGURED I WAS BETTER OFF COMING INTO WORK

THAN STAYING HOME AND GOING OVER THINGS IN MY HEAD.

YOU CAN REALLY TAKE THE DAY OFF.

I'LL JUST CATCH UP ON SOME PAPERWORK, TAKE IT EASY.

I'M FINE.

WELL, IF YOU'RE UP TO IT,

I KNOW INTERNAL AFFAIRS WANTS TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT IT.

I'VE JUST GOTTA RUN DOWN TO FILL A PRESCRIPTION.

WHATEVER YOU NEED.

HOW IS IT?

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

I GUESS YOU GOT TO WORRY ABOUT INFECTION, RIGHT?

I CHANGE THE DRESSING, IT SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM.

ANDY, I'M REALLY SORRY ABOUT THIS.

IT'S OKAY.

I WAS THE ONE CARRYING ON, AND YOU GET SHOT.

I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW BAD THAT MAKES ME FEEL.

IT'S NOT LIKE YOU SAW IT COMING.

I GOTTA RUN OUT OF HERE FOR A SECOND.

I'LL BE BACK IN A LITTLE WHILE.

[ CLEARS THROAT ] EXCUSE ME?

HOW'S THE SERVICING IN THESE SECURITY CAMERAS?

NO COMPLAINTS.

ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THE COMPANY?

YEAH. THEY'VE BEEN GOOD.

I'VE GOT TO LOOK INTO THEM FOR MY STORE.

YOU MIND TELLING ME WHERE THEY'RE LOCATED?

I THINK THEY'RE ON THE WEST SIDE.

ANDY, QU?? PASA?

YOU GOT A MINUTE?

WELL, FOR YOU ?? ANYTIME.

ANDY SIPOWICZ, JESSICA SIMPSON.

STAN!

DOESN'T SHE LOOK LIKE JESSICA SIMPSON?

I DON'T KNOW WHO THAT IS.

YOU'VE GOTTA GET OUT MORE. TALK TO ME IN MY OFFICE.

MAKE YOURSELF COMFORTABLE, DEAR.

HON, SEE IF SHE WANTS ANYTHING.

COME ON.

DID I HEAR THAT YOU GOT SHOT LAST NIGHT?

IT WAS NOTHING.

WELL, "SHOT" AND "NOTHING" DON'T EXACTLY GO TOGETHER.

WERE YOU ON A CASE?

WHY'D YOU DO A CREDIT CHECK ON ME, STAN?

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

MY CARD WAS USED TO ORDER CHILD PORNOGRAPHY,

AND A REQUEST FOR A CREDIT HISTORY

CAME FROM THIS OFFICE.

YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT WASN'T YOU?

WE HAVE 27 LICENSED PRIVATE INVESTIGATORS WORKING HERE.

THERE'S BAD BLOOD BETWEEN YOU AND ME.

THERE'S NO BAD BLOOD BETWEEN ME AND THEM.

I DIDN'T DO IT.

THIS GOES INTO MY PERSONAL LIFE.

IF YOU APPLIED FOR A LOAN,

MAYBE SOMEONE WAS DOING A CREDIT CHECK

ON BEHALF OF A CLIENT.

I DIDN'T APPLY FOR ANY LOAN.

A MORTGAGE, A NEW JOB OF SOME KIND?

NONE OF THAT.

OKAY.

THE PROBLEM IS THAT, EVEN IF I ASK AROUND,

WHAT IT'S GONNA COME BACK TO

IS THAT THE CREDIT?HISTORY REQUEST WAS MADE

ON THE BEHALF OF A CLIENT.

YOU KNOW AS WELL AS I DO

THAT THOSE ARE CONFIDENTIAL RELATIONSHIPS.

I WANT TO KNOW WHO REQUESTED THAT INFORMATION.

LET ME SEE WHAT I CAN COME UP WITH ??

AS A PERSONAL FAVOR.

Martens: WHAT TIME WAS IT THAT YOU WENT TO THE BAR?

I GOT THERE ABOUT 2:30.

WHERE HAD YOU BEEN UP TO THAT POINT?

HOME.

KIND OF LATE TO BE GOING OUT, NO?

I GOT A CALL FROM THE DESK SERGEANT

SAYING SOME GUYS WERE GIVING DETECTIVE CLARK A HARD TIME.

I WENT DOWN THERE TO SEE IF I COULD BE OF ANY ASSISTANCE.

HOW DID THE DESK SERGEANT KNOW THIS?

HE GOT A CALL FROM THE BARTENDER.

YOU GET A LOT OF 2:00 A. M. CALLS

ABOUT DETECTIVE CLARK?

THIS WAS THE FIRST.

OKAY.

SO YOU GOT THERE. NOW WHAT?

THINGS HAD CALMED DOWN, I TALKED TO DETECTIVE CLARK.

THEN THE TWO OF US WALKED OUT TOGETHER.

WAS DETECTIVE CLARK IMPAIRED AT THAT POINT?

NO, HE WAS NOT.

IN YOUR OPINION, HE WAS FIT FOR DUTY.

ABSOLUTELY.

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN YOU GOT OUTSIDE?

WE GOT MAYBE 15 YARDS, I HEARD 3 SHOTS,

AND I WAS HIT.

DETECTIVE CLARK TOOK COVER, HE CHECKED MY CONDITION,

TRIED TO ASCERTAIN WHERE THE SHOTS CAME FROM.

WHEN THAT FAILED, HE CALLED FOR AN AMBULANCE.

WAS IT DETECTIVE CLARK'S FEELING

THAT THE SHOOTING WAS RELATED

TO WHOEVER HAD BEEN GIVING HIM A HARD TIME EARLIER?

HE DIDN'T KNOW.

LIEUTENANT, HAS DETECTIVE CLARK DEMONSTRATED ANY BEHAVIOR

THAT YOU BELIEVE MIGHT HAVE RESULTED IN THE SHOOTING?

NOT THAT I'VE OBSERVED.

THIS DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE A PATTERN?

NO.

OKAY.

WE'RE GONNA LET YOU CARRY THE BALL ON THIS ONE.

BUT THE FILES GET CC'd TO I. A. B.,

AND IF YOU INTERVIEW ANYONE ON THE JOB, LET US KNOW.

OBVIOUSLY, IF THERE'S ANY SIGN OF POLICE MISCONDUCT,

WE'LL NOTIFY I.A.B. IMMEDIATELY.

GOOD.

I APPRECIATE YOU LETTING ME DO THIS IN HERE,

INSTEAD OF UNDER YOUR BOSS' NOSE.

WE APPRECIATE YOU COMING IN.

THEY FIND OUT YOU'RE WORKING IN A BAR,

THEY COULD HURT YOU.

Murphy: NOBODY'S LOOKING TO HURT YOU.

WELL, BEING A COP, I COULDN'T SIT BACK

AND NOT SAY ANYTHING.

SOMEONE GOT INTO IT WITH DETECTIVE CLARK?

RIGHT.

WHICH WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THE FIRST TIME.

I MEAN, NOT FOR NOTHING.

HE GETS A LOAD ON, HE STARTS IN.

STARTS IN HOW?

HE COMES ON STRONG WITH THE GIRLS,

WHETHER THEY'RE WITH SOMEONE OR NOT,

GETS CHESTY WITH WHOEVER.

I CUT HIM SOME SLACK, 'CAUSE HE'S ON THE JOB.

WHAT ABOUT LAST NIGHT?

WELL, LAST NIGHT, I'M NOT SURE.

I KNOW HE WAS GETTING VERY FAMILIAR WITH THIS GIRL,

AND THEN SOME GUY COME IN AND GOT INTO IT WITH HIM ABOUT HER.

THEY GOT INTO A FIGHT?

THINGS WERE DEFINITELY HEADING IN THAT DIRECTION.

SO I STEPPED IN, TOLD THE GUY HE HAD TO LEAVE.

THE GIRL LEFT WITH HIM.

HOW PISSED OFF WAS HE WHEN HE LEFT?

HE WAS PLENTY PISSED OFF.

WHETHER IT WAS AT THE GIRL OR AT CLARK,

THAT I DON'T KNOW.

ANY IDEA HOW WE CAN GET IN TOUCH WITH THIS GIRL?

I DON'T, BUT ONLY 'CAUSE CLARK WAS INSIDE THE 10?YARD LINE

RIGHT THERE IN THE BAR.

THERE'S A CHANCE HE MIGHT KNOW HOW TO GET IN TOUCH WITH HER.

THANKS FOR THE HELP.

LOOK, GUYS, YOU GOTTA KEEP MY NAME OUT OF THIS.

WE'LL DO OUR BEST.

GOT A SECOND, JOHN?

HE KNOW ANYTHING?

HE SAID YOU GOT INTO IT WITH SOME GUY OVER A GIRL. NO.

Murphy: HE SAID YOU WERE MAKING OUT WITH SOME GIRL,

A GUY SHOWED UP, AND HE HAD TO GET BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU.

DID IT OCCUR TO YOU THAT WAS HIS VERSION?

WHAT'S YOUR VERSION?

I WAS TALKING TO A GIRL, A GUY SHOWED UP,

HE WAS A LITTLE MIFFED.

I BOWED OUT GRACEFULLY, THAT WAS IT.

THIS GIRL YOU WERE TALKING TO, ANY IDEA HOW WE CAN CONTACT HER?

WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO CONTACT HER?

WE'RE CONDUCTING AN INVESTIGATION HERE, JOHN.

YOU'RE RIGHT, YOU'RE RIGHT.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

[ SIGHS ]

LET'S SEE.

HERE.

YEAH, I THINK THAT'S FROM LAST NIGHT.

CAN I HELP YOU?

YOU DO SECURITY?SYSTEM INSTALLATIONS?

WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?

HIGH?END, PROFESSIONAL?GRADE EQUIPMENT.

YOU CARRY THAT?

SOMEBODY YOU WANT TO NAIL?

THE OWNER AROUND?

HEY, GUY, YOU KNOW, I CAN HELP YOU WITH WHATEVER YOU NEED.

LET ME TALK TO THE OWNER.

HEY.

YOU INSTALLED A SECURITY SYSTEM AT THE I.P.I. AGENCY?

I DON'T DIVULGE THAT KIND OF THING, DETECTIVE.

ALL RIGHT.

WHAT CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT THIS BUG?

IT'S A TTS 2400.

LOSES A LITTLE RANGE IN BAD WEATHER.

OTHER THAN THAT, EXTREMELY DEPENDABLE.

YOU SELL THEM?

YEAH.

WHO'D YOU SELL THIS ONE TO?

DETECTIVE, DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE NATURE OF MY BUSINESS?

I DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT.

I WANT YOU TO GO THROUGH YOUR RECORDS.

I WANT THE NAME OF THE PERSON THAT YOU SOLD THIS TO.

WHEN PEOPLE COME TO ME,

THEY COME TO ME WITH AN EXPECTATION

OF ABSOLUTE CONFIDENTIALITY.

IF I HAVE TO GET A COURT ORDER,

I'M GONNA TEAR THIS PLACE APART.

ANY ILLEGAL WIRETAPPING, SPYING, OR STALKING

DONE WITH ANY OF YOUR EQUIPMENT, I AM GONNA NAIL YOU FOR.

YOU AND I BOTH KNOW,

AS LONG AS WHAT I SELL IS LEGAL TO SELL,

THERE'S NO CRIMINAL LIABILITY BASED ON WHAT'S DONE WITH IT.

NOW, I'M USED TO DEALING WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT, DETECTIVE.

PLEASE DON'T TRY TO INTIMIDATE ME.

SOMEBODY'S AFTER ME.

THEY KNOW THINGS ABOUT ME.

THEY PLANTED THIS IN A CAR I USE

AND GOT INFORMATION FROM MY PERSONAL LIFE

AND USED IT WITH MY 8?YEAR?OLD SON.

WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?

HE GOT INTO A CAR WITH A STRANGER,

GOT RIDDEN AROUND AND DROPPED OFF.

THAT WAS THIS TIME.

SERIAL NUMBER'S STILL INTACT.

I'LL GO THROUGH MY RECORDS,

I'LL CALL YOU WITH WHOM I SOLD IT TO.

THANK YOU.

WHEN IT COMES TO KIDS, ALL BETS ARE OFF.

WHERE WERE YOU LAST NIGHT, CHRIS?

Christine: I WAS WORKING ON A PAPER AT THE LIBRARY,

AND THEN I MET SOME FRIENDS TO GO EAT.

WHERE WAS THAT?

THIS PLACE, THE OLD STAND, WHERE WE GO TO SOMETIMES.

DID YOU MEET ANYONE AT THE OLD STAND?

I DON'T KNOW, LIKE WHO?

LIKE A GUY?

I TALKED TO A GUY FOR A LITTLE WHILE.

IT WASN'T A BIG DEAL.

DO YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND WHO SHOWED UP LAST NIGHT

AND GOT INTO AN ARGUMENT WITH THE GUY YOU WERE TALKING TO?

NO, I DON'T.

CHRISTINE...

A DETECTIVE WAS SHOT OUTSIDE OF THE OLD STAND LAST NIGHT.

NOW, WE DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT.

I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT.

THIS GUY YOU WERE TALKING TO ??

WHO WE UNDERSTAND YOU WERE MORE THAN JUST TALKING TO ??

MAY HAVE BEEN THE INTENDED TARGET.

IF IT WAS YOUR BOYFRIEND

WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SHOOTING,

THE BEST WAY TO HELP HIM IS TO LET US KNOW THAT.

I TOLD YOU, I DON'T HAVE A BOYFRIEND.

CHRISTINE, STOP IT.

WE HAVE AN EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT OF A GUY SHOWING UP

AND PULLING YOU OUT OF THE BAR.

OH.

THAT WAS MY FATHER.

WHY WAS YOUR FATHER THERE?

BECAUSE I'M UNDERAGE, AND I WAS USING A FAKE I. D.,

WHICH I GUESS NOW I'LL GET BUSTED FOR.

ACCORDING TO HIM, I'VE ABUSED DRUGS AND ALCOHOL,

AND I SHOULDN'T BE DRINKING, PERIOD.

HOW'D HE KNOW YOU'D BE AT THIS BAR?

HE TRACKED ME DOWN.

HE MANAGED TO WALK IN

RIGHT WHEN I HAPPENED TO BE KISSING THIS GUY,

WHO I'M SURE I'LL NEVER SEE AGAIN,

THANKS TO MY FATHER TOTALLY HUMILIATING ME.

THAT'S MY DAD.

HE DROVE YOU HOME? RIGHT.

WHAT'D HE DO AFTER THAT?

I DON'T KNOW.

SMOKED A MILLION CIGARETTES, SAT AT THE KITCHEN TABLE.

HE CAME INTO MY ROOM TO MAKE SURE I WAS STILL THERE.

DID HE LEAVE THE HOUSE?

NOT THAT I KNOW OF.

WHOA. WAIT A MINUTE.

ARE YOU THINKING IT WAS HIM THAT SHOT SOMEBODY?

WE DON'T KNOW YET.

OH, NO. HE WOULD NOT SHOOT ANYBODY.

HE DOESN'T HAVE A GUN!

NOT THAT YOU KNOW OF.

NO, HE WOULD NOT SHOOT ANYBODY!

OH, MY GOD, HE'S MY FATHER, OKAY?

HE WAS JUST WORRIED ABOUT ME.

HE ?? HE IS DOING THE BEST THAT HE CAN TO RAISE ME

SINCE MY MOTHER SPLIT.

HE WAS JUST LOOKING AFTER ME.

IS THERE ANYONE WHO CAN VOUCH FOR YOUR FATHER BEING HOME

BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 2:00 AND 3:00 A. M.?

YEAH, I CAN.

I GOT UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.

I WENT ?? I WENT TO HIS ROOM.

I WANTED TO SEE IF HE WAS STILL MAD AT ME.

HE WAS ASLEEP, SO I DIDN'T WANT TO WAKE HIM.

WAS HE THERE IN THE MORNING?

YEAH. YEAH, HE WAS THERE IN THE MORNING.

HE'S ALWAYS THERE IN THE MORNING.

HE MADE ME BREAKFAST.

HE WENT TO WORK.

YOU BURT?

WHAT DO YOU NEED?

FIRST THING I NEED

IS FOR YOU TO GET YOUR HEAD OUT FROM UNDER THAT DASHBOARD.

AIN'T THERE ANYBODY BEHIND THE COUNTER?

YOU EVER INSTALL ANYTHING BESIDES STEREOS?

LIKE WHAT?

LIKE A BUG. LIKE THIS BUG.

I NEVER SAW IT BEFORE.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO BE THINKING ABOUT

WHEN THE GUY THAT SOLD IT TO YOU

PICKS YOU OUT OF A LINEUP.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

WHEN THAT HAPPENS,

YOU'RE GONNA NEED ALL THE HELP YOU CAN GET.

WHO TOLD YOU TO INSTALL THIS?

I ?? I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T KEEP TRACK.

WAS IT STAN HATCHER?

I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT ILLEGAL

TO HAVE THESE INSTALLED IN YOUR OWN CAR, ALL RIGHT?

WAS I MISINFORMED ABOUT THAT? IF SO, I'M SORRY.

WAS IT STAN HATCHER?

YEAH.

WHAT DID HE TELL YOU?

IT WASN'T ENOUGH I THOUGHT MY WIFE WAS GOING OUT ON ME,

I HAD TO RUN UP A $5,000 BILL FOR HIM TO PROVE TO ME SHE WAS.

HE SAID HE'D WIPE OUT THE BILL?

YEAH.

WHAT ELSE DID YOU DO FOR THE 5 GRAND?

NOTHING.

I DIDN'T MONITOR THE TRANSMISSIONS FROM THE THING,

HE DID.

THAT'S RIGHT, HE DID.

HE GATHERED INFORMATION

BASED ON CONVERSATIONS THAT TOOK PLACE IN THAT CAR.

AND THEN SOMEONE USED THAT INFORMATION

TO TALK AN 8?YEAR?OLD BOY INTO TAKING A RIDE.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING, THAT THAT WAS ME?

THAT 8?YEAR?OLD BOY WAS MY SON.

AND IF HE HAS TO,

HE WILL DEFINITELY PICK YOU OUT OF A LINEUP.

KIDNAPPING IS A CLASS?A FELONY

IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BURT!

DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH PRISON TIME YOU'RE LOOKING AT?!

DO YOU WANT TO HEAR WHAT HE TOLD ME?

HE SAID SOME WOMAN WANTED TO CONVINCE HER HUSBAND

THEY WERE VULNERABLE, CONVINCE HIM THAT

WHATEVER THEY SPENT FOR SECURITY WAS WORTH IT.

HATCHER TOLD ME TO PICK UP THE KID,

DRIVE HIM AROUND FOR 15 MINUTES, AND DROP HIM OFF.

HE TOLD ME THE KID'S MOTHER KNEW ALL ABOUT IT.

DID HATCHER GIVE YOU A SHIELD TO USE?

I SWEAR TO GOD, I WASN'T MEAN TO THE KID.

I THOUGHT OF SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED A WHILE BACK.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT HAS TO DO WITH THIS OR NOT.

WHAT'S A WHILE BACK?

TWO, THREE WEEKS AGO.

SOMETHING TO DO WITH JOHN CLARK?

THIS GUY WAS COMING INTO THE BAR FOR A WHILE,

SORT OF A SEMIREGULAR ?? SHORT, NERDY.

IF I HAD TO GUESS, I'D SAY HE WAS AN ACCOUNTANT,

WORKED FOR AN INSURANCE COMPANY, LIKE THAT.

THERE WAS THIS GIRL HE WAS WORKING, A LOOKER ??

TALL, BLONDE, GREAT BODY, CAREER?TYPE.

UNLESS HE HAD A LOT MORE MONEY THAN HE WAS SHOWING,

NOT THE TYPE HE WAS USED TO SCORING WITH.

BUT WHEN I SAY HE WAS WORKING HER,

I MEAN BUYING HER DRINKS, DINNER.

IT LOOKED FOR A WHILE THERE LIKE HE WAS DOING HER TAXES.

CLARK BEAT HIM TO THE PUNCH?

HE GOT UP TO GO TO THE BATHROOM,

CLARK MOVED IN LIKE A PANZER DIVISION.

I REMEMBER WATCHING THE GUY COME BACK TO HIS SEAT,

TRY TO STAY IN THE GAME,

THEN HAVE CLARK AND THE BROAD WALTZ OUT OF THE PLACE TOGETHER.

WASN'T THIS A COUPLE WEEKS AGO?

UNTIL LAST NIGHT, THE GUY STAYED AWAY.

HE HAVE ANY CONTACT WITH CLARK LAST NIGHT?

NOT THAT I SAW.

I THOUGHT I SHOULD JUST MENTION HE CAME IN LAST NIGHT.

AND YOU'RE THINKING THE GUY MIGHT HAVE NURSED SOMETHING

ALL THAT TIME?

I SAW HIS FACE THE NIGHT CLARK TOOK OFF WITH THE GIRL.

HE COULD NURSE THIS FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.

WE NEED THE NAME OF A GIRL, JOHN.

YEAH? ONE WITHOUT NORMAL APPETITES?

YOU MET ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO IN A BAR, THEN WENT HOME WITH HER.

TALL BLONDE, LATE 20s, EARLY 30s.

SHE SUPPOSED TO BE THE SHOOTER NOW?

THERE'S A GUY YOU MIGHT HAVE PISSED OFF BY TAKING HER HOME.

I HAVE NO IDEA OF ANY OF THAT.

SHE'S LIKE A LAWYER OR SOMETHING.

THIS WAS WHEN?

ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO.

SHE MIGHT HAVE BEEN WITH A GROUP FROM HER OFFICE,

WHO SHE LEFT TO GO SIT WITH THIS GUY.

WHO SHE LEFT TO BE WITH YOU.

BLONDE.

YEAH, I REMEMBER HER.

HER NAME WAS CORRINE ?? OR COLETTE.

LET ME TELL YOU, GREG,

THIS IS ONE YOU'D SELL YOUR FAMILY INTO SLAVERY FOR.

LAST NAME?

NEVER KNEW HER LAST NAME.

YOU KNOW WHERE SHE LIVES?

YEAH, LONDON TERRACE.

THAT'S LIKE A SQUARE BLOCK, LONDON TERRACE.

YEAH, SHE HAD A CORNER APARTMENT.

IT WAS 9th AVENUE AND 23rd STREET.

WE TOOK THE STAIRS, IT WAS ON THE THIRD FLOOR.

THAT OUGHT TO DO IT.

GET IN THE CAR.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

GET IN THE CAR OR I'M GONNA KILL YOU RIGHT HERE.

THOUGHT YOU COMING TO ME FOR HELP

SIGNALED A NEW SPIRIT OF COOPERATION.

YOU THOUGHT WRONG. GET IN.

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

GET OUT. NO.

GET OUT!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

DON'T YOU SAY ANYTHING.

THERE MAY BE SOME DOUBT IN YOUR MIND WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF.

I'M HERE TO PUT THAT DOUBT TO REST.

ANDY, TAKE IT EASY.

I SAID DON'T SAY ANYTHING!

NOW, YOU HAVE RESENTMENTS AGAINST ME, I UNDERSTAND THIS.

TO YOU, THEY'RE JUSTIFIABLE. TO ME, THEY'RE NOT.

THAT'S NOT GONNA BE RESOLVED BETWEEN US,

AND THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO

WITH WHAT I'M ABOUT TO TELL YOU.

YOU INVOLVED MY FAMILY.

YOU CROSSED THE LAST LINE.

THIS GUN IS UNTRACEABLE.

YOU INVOLVE THEM AGAIN, I WILL USE IT TO KILL YOU.

DO YOU BELIEVE I'M CAPABLE OF THAT, STAN?

YEAH.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE SERIOUS

ABOUT ANYTHING IN MY LIFE?

YOU'VE GOT A GUN TO MY NECK. I GET THAT YOU'RE SERIOUS.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

YEAH, I UNDERSTAND.

OH!

HEY, JOHNNY.

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WORKED HERE.

YEAH.

THESE DETECTIVES LEFT THEIR CARDS FOR ME.

IT'S IN ?? IT'S IN REGARD TO A CASE.

WHAT KIND OF CASE?

THEY'RE GONNA HAVE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT IT.

YOU CAN'T? NO, NOT REALLY.

HEY, GUYS.

THEY'RE GOOD GUYS.

THIS IS DETECTIVE MEDAVOY, DETECTIVE JONES.

CORRINE.

O'MALLEY.

WHY DON'T WE GO IN HERE? IT'LL BE MORE COMFORTABLE.

OKAY.

WOULD YOU LIKE SOMETHING TO DRINK?

I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH INTERNAL AFFAIRS.

THEY WANT YOU IN RIGHT AWAY.

WHAT IS IT THIS TIME?

THEY WOULDN'T SAY OVER THE PHONE.

YOU KNOW THE OLD STAND, RIGHT?

UH?HUH.

WELL, WE'RE TRYING TO LOCATE A GUY

YOU MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN TO BE FRIENDLY WITH IN THERE.

WHO'S THAT?

WELL, WE DON'T KNOW HIS NAME.

DOES HE HAVE A PARTICULARLY DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTIC?

WE KNOW HE'S SHORT.

NOT BIG ON SHORT.

AND, UH, HE WAS COVERING YOUR BAR TAB

UP UNTIL THE NIGHT THAT JOHN CLARK CAME ALONG.

I DON'T NEED ANYONE TO COVER MY BAR TAB, DETECTIVE.

WELL, WE'RE NOT SAYING YOU NEEDED HIM TO.

WE'RE JUST SAYING HE DID.

YOU GOT TO BE FRIENDLY WITH HIM OVER A PERIOD OF TIME,

AND IT'S POSSIBLE THAT HE WAS HELPING YOU OUT WITH SOMETHING,

MAYBE YOUR TAXES.

LARRY MATELKA.

AND IT WASN'T MY TAXES.

IT WAS A REAL?ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST

HE WAS EXPLAINING TO ME IN EXCRUCIATING DETAIL.

WHAT ABOUT HIM?

WELL, DO YOU KNOW WHERE HE LIVES?

GOD, NO.

KNOW WHERE WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIND HIM?

HE MUST HAVE GIVEN ME HIS CARD AT LEAST SIX TIMES.

WANT ME TO SEE IF THERE'S ONE I HAVEN'T THROWN OUT?

YEAH, THAT'D BE GOOD.

I'M SURE IT'S IN HERE SOMEWHERE.

Sipowicz: THIS GUN IS UNTRACEABLE.

YOU INVOLVE THEM AGAIN, I WILL USE IT TO KILL YOU.

DO YOU BELIEVE I'M CAPABLE OF THAT, STAN?

Hatcher: YEAH.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE SERIOUS

ABOUT ANYTHING IN MY LIFE?

HE WAS WEARING A RECORDER?

EVERY TIME YOU TALKED TO HIM.

AFTER LAST NIGHT'S INCIDENT,

HE TURNED OVER TAPES AND TRANSCRIPTS

WITH TIMES, DATES, AND LOCATIONS.

ARE YOU INTERESTED IN HEARING WHAT HE WAS DOING TO ME

OR DOESN'T THAT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE?

SERGEANT MARTENS IS DOING

EXACTLY WHAT HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE DOING, DETECTIVE.

I SUGGEST YOU TRY TO RESPOND WITHOUT THE ATTITUDE.

ALL RIGHT, FORGET ABOUT THE SMALL STUFF.

MY TIRES GET SLASHED, MY FISH GET POISONED,

MY CREDIT CARD GETS USED TO BUY CHILD PORNOGRAPHY,

MEMBERS OF MY AA GROUP GET CONTACTED

AND TOLD LIES ABOUT ME.

WE'LL FORGET ABOUT ALL THAT.

WHEN MY 8?YEAR?OLD SON GETS TALKED INTO A CAR BY A STRANGER

WHO KNOWS THINGS ABOUT MY FAMILY

BECAUSE I'VE BEEN BUGGED,

THAT TAKES IT TO A DIFFERENT LEVEL.

HATCHER DID THAT?

HE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR HAVING IT DONE.

I GOT A STATEMENT FROM THE GUY HE HAD APPROACH THEO

AND INSTALL THE BUG.

YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT MULTIPLE FELONIES HATCHER COMMITTED.

THAT'S RIGHT.

WHICH IS WHY THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN APPROACHED

IN AN OFFICIAL CAPACITY, INSTEAD OF THE WAY YOU DID IT.

IT'S A LITTLE TOUGH TO HOLD BACK

WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR KID.

I'M SURE IT IS.

AND I DON'T TAKE ANY PLEASURE IN DOING WHAT I HAVE TO DO.

WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT, JERRY?

MENACING, RECKLESS ENDANGERMENT ??

IT'S UP TO THE D. A. WHETHER THEY FILE CRIMINAL CHARGES.

I'D SAY AT A MINIMUM, THOUGH,

WE'RE LOOKING AT A DEPARTMENTAL TRIAL.

WOULD YOU DO ME A FAVOR AND HOLD ONTO THIS UNTIL TOMORROW?

TOMORROW WILL BE IT.

Medavoy: YOU KNOW A BAR CALLED THE OLD STAND, LARRY?

ON 3rd AVENUE?

YEAH, I KNOW IT.

YOU BEEN THERE RECENTLY?

I STOP IN FOR A DRINK ONCE IN A WHILE.

YOU STOP IN RECENTLY?

I MAY HAVE STOPPED IN RECENTLY.

WHY IS THAT OF INTEREST TO THE POLICE,

IF YOU DON'T MIND ME ASKING?

THERE'S AN INCIDENT INVOLVING THIS GIRL.

WE WANTED TO SEE IF YOU KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

WELL, WHO'S THE GIRL?

CORRINE O'MALLEY.

BLONDE?

RIGHT.

BEEN THERE, DONE THAT, BOUGHT THE T?SHIRT, NEXT.

WELL, WE HEARD THAT

YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN STUCK ON HER THERE FOR A WHILE.

THIS IS NEW YORK.

TOO MANY FISH IN THE SEA TO GET STUCK ON ANYBODY.

SO THERE NEVER CAME A POINT YOU GOT IRRITATED

THAT YOU SPENT ALL THIS TIME AND ALL THIS MONEY ON HER,

ONLY TO HAVE ANOTHER GUY SWOOP IN AND SCORE?

WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT ANOTHER GUY?

WELL, THE THING ABOUT A BAR, LARRY,

THERE'S OTHER PEOPLE THERE.

PEOPLE SAW YOU TRYING YOUR DAMNEDEST WITH THIS CHIC.

BUILDING UP WHAT

YOU MUST HAVE AT LEAST THOUGHT WAS A RELATIONSHIP.

LAST THING I'M INTERESTED IN.

SOMETHING THAT WOULD LEAD TO SOMETHING?

NO WAY. I'M ON THE PROWL. HERE TODAY, GONE TOMORROW.

WHAT HAPPENED, LARRY? YOU GO TO THE BATHROOM,

SUDDENLY, IT'S THE OTHER GUY SHE'S LOOKING AT.

THE OTHER GUY SHE GOES HOME WITH.

MORE POWER TO HIM.

IS THAT WHAT YOU THOUGHT?

HE'S A PLAYER, I'M A PLAYER.

YOU'RE NOT A PLAYER.

GO AHEAD, GREG, I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

WHY AM I NOT A PLAYER?

BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT.

YOU'RE A GUY WHO WANTS WOMEN TO LIKE HIM,

AND YOU GOT YOUR FEELINGS HURT.

YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME.

I WENT OUT WITH A HOOTER'S WAITRESS,

AND I BROKE UP WITH HER.

OH, MY GOD, THAT'S HIM.

Jones: ARE YOU SURE?

DEFINITELY. THAT'S HIM.

ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU. YOU MIND WAITING BY THE BENCH?

WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?

DID YOU REALLY THINK YOU COULD SHOOT SOMEBODY

IN THE MIDDLE OF NEW YORK AND NOT HAVE ANYONE SEE YOU?

I DIDN'T SHOOT ANYBODY!

THAT GENTLEMAN WAS IN HIS APARTMENT

ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE BAR.

HE WAS AWAKE, SMOKING A CIGARETTE.

HE LOOKED OUTSIDE, AND HE SAW YOU.

LISTEN TO ME, LARRY.

YOU SHOT A COP.

NOW, WE DON'T THINK YOU'RE A BAD GUY.

WE THINK YOU'RE A GOOD GUY WHO DID A DUMB THING

UNDER EMOTIONAL DURESS.

NOW, YOU GET IN FRONT OF IT, A JUDGE WILL UNDERSTAND.

YOU KEEP STONEWALLING, YOU'RE LOOKING AT SERIOUS TIME.

HE ACTED LIKE I WASN'T EVEN THERE.

WHO DID?

I ACTUALLY DO NOTICE IT WHEN PEOPLE IGNORE ME.

MOST PEOPLE DO.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT MOST PEOPLE.

I KNOW THAT, ON THOSE RARE OCCASIONS

WHEN I GET INVITED TO DINNER AT SOMEONE'S HOUSE

OR I'M ATTENDING A WEDDING OR A BAR MITZVAH,

AND DISAPPOINTMENT REGISTERS ON THE FACE

OF WHOEVER IT IS ASSIGNED A SEAT NEXT TO ME, I NOTICE IT.

I DON'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT, BUT I NOTICE IT.

WELL, WHAT THIS GUY DID IS A LOT WORSE THAN THAT.

SO I WENT HOME, CRAWLED INTO MY HOLE

AND PROMISED MYSELF I'D NEVER SET FOOT IN THAT BAR AGAIN.

UNTIL THE OTHER NIGHT.

I THOUGHT MAYBE SHE'D BE THERE.

MAYBE SHE'D BE WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED TO ME.

INSTEAD, YOU SAW HIM.

WITH HIS HANDS ALL OVER SOME OTHER GIRL.

WHERE WAS THE GUN, LARRY?

IN MY APARTMENT.

I WENT TO GET IT, I CAME BACK.

I LOOKED IN THE WINDOW, AND I SAW HE WAS STILL THERE.

I WAITED ACROSS THE STREET.

WHEN HE CAME OUT, I SHOT AT HIM.

IS THAT OFFICER HURT BAD?

HE'S GONNA BE OKAY, BUT YOU COULD HAVE KILLED HIM.

OH! I'M VERY SORRY.

[ CRYING ]

CHIEF, I ASKED YOUR NEPHEW TO BE HERE,

SO THAT IF ANYTHING DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ TOLD ME ISN'T TRUE,

HE CAN SET IT STRAIGHT.

FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND,

DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ HAS PUT HIMSELF IN A WORLD OF HURT.

THAT MAY BE.

IT'S A SHAME.

IT IS A SHAME, ISN'T IT?

BROUGHT IT ON HIMSELF.

SEE, THAT'S THE PART I THINK YOUR UNCLE

MIGHT WANT TO MAKE HIS OWN DETERMINATION ABOUT.

WELL, WHAT IS IT DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ IS SAYING?

A CREDIT?HISTORY REQUEST,

CONCLUSIVELY ATTRIBUTED TO YOUR NEPHEW'S AGENCY,

ENABLED DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ'S CREDIT CARD TO BE USED

TO ORDER CHILD PORNOGRAPHY IN SIPOWICZ'S NAME.

THAT TRUE?

I DIDN'T DO IT.

HE'S BEEN GIVEN A STATEMENT BY A BURT SAVARO,

WHICH I'VE SEEN, THAT DESCRIBES HOW YOUR NEPHEW

PRESSURED HIM INTO PLANTING AN ILLEGAL LISTENING DEVICE

IN DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ'S DEPARTMENT CAR,

AND THEN USING INFORMATION DERIVED FROM THAT BUG

TO TALK DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ'S 8?YEAR?OLD SON INTO HIS CAR.

WHY WOULD I DO ALL THIS?

I THINK YOU DID IT TO DESTROY SIPOWICZ'S CAREER

THE SAME WAY YOU THINK HE DESTROYED YOURS.

STARTED SMALL TO GET HIM NERVOUS AND PARANOID.

AND YOU WERE CAREFUL, BUT NOT TOO CAREFUL,

SO, WITH A LITTLE DIGGING, IT LED BACK TO YOU.

AND THEN, WHEN YOU HAD HIS KID SNATCHED

AND SIPOWICZ DID WHAT YOU KNEW HE WOULD DO,

YOU WERE WAITING THERE WITH YOUR TAPE RECORDER.

WHO'S THIS GUY, PERRY MASON?

SHUT YOUR MOUTH, STAN.

BASED ON WHAT WE BOTH KNOW

ABOUT YOUR NEPHEW'S PREVIOUS CONDUCT, CHIEF,

DOES WHAT I SAID SEEM ALL THAT UNLIKELY?

[ SIGHS ]

WHAT DO YOU PROPOSE AS A SOLUTION, LIEUTENANT?

BURY WHATEVER THERE IS ON DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ,

IN RETURN FOR WHICH, NO CRIMINAL CHARGES

ARE FILED AGAINST YOUR NEPHEW ??

ASSUMING DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ IS WILLING.

HE THREATENED ME WITH A GUN. I HAVE PROOF OF THAT.

AND HE HAS PROOF YOU COMMITTED A HALF A DOZEN FELONIES.

YOU WANT TO GO HEAD?TO?HEAD, STAN?

YEAH, I WANT TO GO HEAD?TO?HEAD.

I WANT TO TAKE THAT SON OF A BITCH DOWN, ONCE AND FOR ALL!

IN WHICH CASE, HERE'S WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN ??

SIPOWICZ WILL VERY LIKELY GET FIRED OFF THE JOB,

POSSIBLY HAVE CHARGES BROUGHT, WON'T GET CONVICTED,

WON'T DO TIME.

YOU, ON THE OTHER HAND,

WILL ABSOLUTELY BE BROUGHT UP ON CHARGES,

WILL MAKE AN UNSYMPATHETIC DEFENDANT,

AND WILL DEFINITELY DO TIME.

I'D PLAN ON 8 TO 10 YEARS.

CAN WE TALK ABOUT THIS PRIVATELY?

HERE IS THE ONLY WAY YOU'LL AVOID THAT ??

YOU DON'T GET TO LIVE IN NEW YORK ANYMORE.

YOUR AGENCY'S GOT AN OFFICE IN MIAMI.

THEY'LL PUT THROUGH THE PAPERWORK

TO GET YOU A P.I. LICENSE IN FLORIDA,

AND THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE GONNA LIVE.

YOU DON'T GOT NEAR SIPOWICZ FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.

AND, IF YOU'RE SMART,

YOU'LL KEEP YOUR CONTACT WITH ME TO A BARE MINIMUM.

LIEUTENANT, I THINK OUR BUSINESS HERE IS CONCLUDED.

CLARK? IN MY OFFICE.

YOU WANT TO BE HERE?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

THE WAY YOU'VE BEEN CONDUCTING YOURSELF

LEAVES ME WITH THE IMPRESSION YOU DON'T WANT TO BE HERE.

I WANT TO BE HERE.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO SHOW ME.

THE CLEARANCE RATES ON MY CASES

ARE AS HIGH AS THEY'VE EVER BEEN, BOSS.

I'M TALKING ABOUT YOU COMING IN HUNG OVER,

HITTING THE BARS AT NIGHT, SLEEPING AROUND,

AND NEARLY GETTING YOUR PARTNER KILLED.

YOU THINK I DON'T FEEL BAD ABOUT THAT?

I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU FEEL. I CARE WHAT YOU DO.

FROM THIS POINT FORWARD,

I FIND YOU GOING OUT ON A JAG AT NIGHT,

I'M TRANSFERRING YOU OUT OF MY SQUAD.

YES, SIR.

[ KNOCK AT DOOR ]

COME IN.

WE'RE FINISHED.

IF YOU'RE WILLING TO LET WHAT YOU HAVE ON HATCHER GO,

THE TAPE RECORDINGS WILL DISAPPEAR.

WHAT DOES HATCHER SAY?

HATCHER'S GONNA DO WHAT HE'S TOLD.

THAT MEANS RELOCATING OUT OF NEW YORK,

STEERING CLEAR OF YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

FINE.

THAT'S IT, THEN.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

I APPRECIATE YOU INTERCEDING LIKE THIS, LIEUTENANT.

I DON'T WANT YOUR APPRECIATION.

AFTER ASSURING ME

THAT YOU WOULDN'T FREELANCE THE SITUATION WITH HATCHER,

YOU DID EXACTLY THAT.

I GUESS, AT A CERTAIN POINT,

MY EMOTIONS GOT THE BETTER OF ME.

I UNDERSTAND, WHICH IS WHY I WENT TO BAT FOR YOU.

WHAT I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND

IS HOW CONTEMPTIBLE I FELT DOING IT.

I DON'T TAKE ANY SATISFACTION IN BROKERING DEALS.

I LIVE BY RULES. I HONOR MY COMMITMENTS.

WHILE YOU REMAIN IN MY COMMAND, YOU WILL DO THE SAME.

IF YOU ASSUME THAT YOU'VE WON ME AS A CONFEDERATE

AND ACT ON THAT ASSUMPTION,

YOUR LEAVING THE JOB MAY COME SOONER THAN YOU THINK.

THAT'S ALL.

HEY.

JOHN.

YOU FEEL LIKE GOING TO THE GYM?

I CAN'T.

AN HOUR, 45 MINUTES?

CAN'T DO IT, JOHN.

HOW 'BOUT DINNER?

LISTEN, MAN ??

I DON'T WANT TO MAKE UP ANY PHONY EXCUSES,

AND I DON'T WANT TO PREACH TO YOU,

BUT THE WAY YOU'VE BEEN ACTING BOTHERS ME.

IT DISRESPECTS THE PEOPLE YOU WORK WITH,

IT DISRESPECTS THE JOB.

AND YOU'RE SO SCREWED UP, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REALIZE IT.

I GUESS THAT'S A NO FOR DINNER.

THAT'S RIGHT.

YOU PUT THROUGH THAT REQUEST FOR REASSIGNMENT?

DIDN'T GET A CHANCE.

CAN I ASK IF MAYBE YOU COULD HOLD OFF?

I MEAN, IF THERE'S NOT SOMEBODY

THAT YOU'RE SET ON WORKING WITH

OR TILL YOU FIND SOMEBODY

THAT YOU'RE SET ON WORKING WITH?

I WOULD MAKE EVERY EFFORT

TO NOT BEHAVE THE WAY I'VE BEEN BEHAVING.

I KNOW THAT PROBABLY RINGS A LITTLE HOLLOW RIGHT NOW,

BUT IF YOU COULD JUST KIND OF STRUGGLE ALONG WITH ME...

WE'LL TRY IT.

THANK YOU.

I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.
