PREVIOUSLY ON "NYPD BLUE"...

THE JURY FOUND YOUR DAD NOT GUILTY.

IF HE'S BACK ON THE STREET, HE MIGHT COME AFTER ME.

MICHAEL'S GOING TO HAVE AN ORDER OF PROTECTION AGAINST YOU

BY THE END OF THE DAY.

YOU LOVE HIDING BEHIND THAT BADGE, DON'T YOU?

DO YOU WANT TO TAKE A SWING?

ASSAULT ON A POLICE OFFICER? I DON'T THINK SO.

YOU COMPROMISED A MURDER CASE.

NO, A DEFENSE LAWYER GOT LUCKY.

CONSORTING WITH A WITNESS WAS INAPPROPRIATE ENOUGH.

KEEPING IT FROM ME SO THAT I COULDN'T TAKE THE STINK OFF YOU,

THAT IS UNFORGIVABLE.

CLARK'S A GROWN MAN.

HE DON'T WANT ME BEING HIS FATHER.

YEAH, HE DOES. SPOT HIM THE MISTAKES, ANDY.

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

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

GOD BLESS, ANDY.

WANT TO GRAB SOMETHING TO EAT?

YOU WANT TO? YEAH.

[ SIGHS ]

I DIDN'T EXPECT TO BE SITTING HERE LIKE THIS.

I DON'T WANT TO KEEP GOING AROUND LIKE WE'VE BEEN.

MY FAULT.

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

NO, I'VE BEEN A JERK. I KNOW THAT.

HERE YOU ARE, SIR.

COME ON, LET'S EAT.

I MEAN, I REALLY KNOW IT. YOU KNOW?

I'M REALLY SORRY FOR IT.

JOHN, I DON'T DOUBT THAT YOU'RE SORRY FOR IT.

I DIDN'T DOUBT IT WHEN YOU TOLD ME BEFORE.

I JUST CAN'T GO AROUND FEELING THE WAY I'M FEELING.

WHICH IS WHY YOU'RE TRYING NOT TO FEEL ANYTHING AT ALL.

DRINK, SLEEP AROUND...

[ CLEARS THROAT ] ANYTHING TO TAKE THE EDGE OFF.

KIND OF WORKS, YOU KNOW, UNFORTUNATELY.

YEAH, YEAH, IT WORKS FOR A WHILE ANYWAY.

THAT'S WHY WE DO IT.

PROBLEM IS, AT A CERTAIN POINT, IT STOPS WORKING.

THEN WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO ANYTHING ELSE.

[ SIGHS ]

WISH I COULD HAVE DONE THINGS DIFFERENT.

I WISH I'D SAID TO MY OLD MAN HOW MUCH HE MEANT TO ME.

I WISH I'D TRIED HARDER WITH JEN

SO MAYBE SHE WOULDN'T HAVE GONE OUT THE WAY SHE DID.

YOU DID TRY.

I JUST CAN'T LOSE ANYBODY ELSE, ANDY.

I CAN'T HAVE ANYBODY ELSE CHECK OUT ON ME.

I JUST DON'T WANT ANYTHING ELSE TO GET TAKEN AWAY.

SOME THINGS GET TAKEN.

SOME THINGS GET GIVEN IN THEIR PLACE.

WHAT YOU GOT TO DO IS JUST STICK AROUND.

[ INHALES DEEPLY ]

I WILL IF YOU WILL.

YOU GOT A DEAL.

LUCY WELKER.

SAYS A GUY GRABBED HER AND PULLED HER INTO THE ALLEY,

STARTED PUNCHING HER.

HE ROB HER? NO.

ANY SEXUAL ASSAULT?

SAYS HE JUST GAVE HER THE BEATING AND TOOK OFF.

WHO CALLED IT IN?

DELI OWNER DOWN THE STREET. HE DIDN'T SEE THE GUY, THOUGH.

THANKS. THANKS.

MISS WELKER, DETECTIVES SIPOWICZ AND CLARK.

WANT TO TELL US WHAT HAPPENED?

I ALREADY EXPLAINED TO THE OTHER POLICEMAN.

YEAH, IT'D BE GOOD IF YOU EXPLAIN IT AGAIN.

COULD I GET A BLANKET OR SOMETHING?

I'M REALLY COLD.

YEAH, HERE.

OH, THANK YOU.

SO, CAN YOU TELL US WHAT HAPPENED?

I LEFT MY APARTMENT AND WAS GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE

WHEN THIS MAN GRABBED ME AND PULLED ME IN THE ALLEY.

HE THREW ME AGAINST THE WALL AND STARTED HITTING ME.

DID HE SAY ANYTHING? NO, HE JUST KEPT HITTING ME.

THEN SOMETHING MUST HAVE SPOOKED HIM, BECAUSE HE RAN OFF.

WHAT DID HE LOOK LIKE?

LIKE ONE OF THE HOMELESS YOU SEE AROUND ??

BIG HAIR, A BIG, BUSHY BEARD, LIKE A LION.

WHITE LION, BLACK LION?

WHITE.

DO YOU KNOW HIM FROM AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD?

NO, I'VE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE.

WOULD YOU RECOGNIZE HIM IF YOU SAW HIM AGAIN?

I'M NOT SURE.

DID YOU NOTICE ANYTHING ABOUT HIM ??

SCARS, WHAT HE WAS WEARING?

IT HAPPENED SO FAST.

I THINK HE WAS JUST CRAZY, YOU KNOW.

ALL RIGHT, WE'LL TALK TO YOU AGAIN IN A LITTLE WHILE.

MAYBE SOME MORE WILL COME TO YOU THEN.

MEANTIME, THEY'LL CHECK YOU OUT AT THE HOSPITAL.

OH, I JUST WANT TO GO HOME.

DON'T WORRY, THEY'LL TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOU.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR COAT.

NO PROBLEM.

WHITE, HOMELESS GUY, LOOKS LIKE A LION.

IT SOLVES ITSELF.

HEY.

GOOD MORNING!

OUCH.

I HAD A LITTLE TROUBLE AT McGOWAN'S LAST NIGHT.

WHAT HAPPENED?

A GUY SHOWS UP. HE STARTS MAKING PROBLEMS.

I TRY TALKING TO HIM. THAT DIDN'T WORK.

NOW I GOT MY HANDS ON HIM. I'M MOVING HIM OUT THE DOOR.

SITUATION'S WELL UNDER CONTROL,

WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, HIS GIRLFRIEND ??

5 FOOT NOTHING ?? HITS ME WITH A LEFT HOOK.

THE LITTLE ONES ARE TOUGH, GREG.

THIS WOMAN COULD FIGHT PROFESSIONALLY.

SHE GOT YOU GOOD.

I FEEL LIKE I GOT A NEON SIGN ON MY FACE.

YOU KNOW, A LITTLE MAKEUP COULD HELP. YOU THINK?

I GOT A FEW THINGS IN MY BAG, MIGHT BRING THE SHINE DOWN.

DETECTIVE JONES, BOBBI KINGSTON IS HERE.

HEY, BALDWIN.

I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE ALL RIGHT TO BRING HER BACK.

I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND. IF YOU'RE BUSY, I CAN JUST ??

OH, NOT A PROBLEM. COME ON, GREG.

COFFEE?

UH, THANKS.

I WAS GOING TO GIVE YOU A CALL.

MICHAEL'S GOT A GAME THURSDAY NIGHT,

AND HE'D LOVE IF YOU COULD COME SEE HIM PLAY.

OH, SURE.

SO, WHAT'S UP?

BALDWIN, I'M NOT HERE AS YOUR CASEWORKER.

MORE AS A FRIEND. OKAY.

MICHAEL'S DAD HAS FILED A PETITION WITH THE COURT.

HE'S REQUESTED A HEARING TO MODIFY THE PLACEMENT ORDER.

ALL RIGHT, WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

WELL, IN ALL LIKELIHOOD,

IT MEANS HE'S GOING TO ASK FOR CUSTODY.

YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.

HE'LL START OUT WITH SOMETHING LESS ?? VISITATION PROBABLY ??

BUT HE WOULDN'T BE DOING ALL THIS

IF HE WASN'T ULTIMATELY AFTER CUSTODY.

CRAIG KILLED MICHAEL'S MOTHER. HE NEARLY KILLED HIS AUNT.

YOU CAN'T TELL ME THE COURTS ARE GOING TO CONSIDER

GIVING MICHAEL BACK TO HIM.

I CAN'T TELL YOU WHAT THE COURTS ARE GOING TO DO,

BUT HE WAS NOT CONVICTED OF EITHER CRIME.

AND AS A MATTER OF PRINCIPLE,

THE RIGHTS OF THE BIOLOGICAL PARENT ARE GIVEN WEIGHT ??

A LOT OF WEIGHT.

WHEN'S THE HEARING?

THIS AFTERNOON.

HOW COME SOMEBODY DIDN'T TELL ME ABOUT THIS BEFORE?!

THEY DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU AT ALL.

AS FAR AS THE COURTS ARE CONCERNED,

YOU'RE JUST A PLACE FOR MICHAEL TO STAY.

YOU KNOW THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT IS WITH MICHAEL AND ME.

THAT'S WHY I'M HERE.

WHAT CAN I DO?

WELL, YOU NEED A LAWYER,

SO I'M GOING TO GO BACK AND GET YOU SOME NAMES,

AND THEN LET'S JUST SEE WHAT HAPPENS AT THE HEARING.

THANKS FOR DOING THIS.

SURE.

WHAT'S THIS ONE?

HE DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE HIS NAME,

JUST THAT HE HAD SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT CONSTITUTES "IMPORTANT."

LIEUTENANT, I GOT A SITUATION AT HOME.

I GOT TO TAKE SOME LOST TIME.

EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT? MY FOSTER SON ??

HIS FATHER'S TRYING TO COME BACK INTO THE PICTURE,

AND THERE'S A HEARING I NEED TO ATTEND.

ANYTHING WE CAN DO?

NO, BUT THANK YOU.

DO WHAT YOU GOT TO DO.

DESK SERGEANT SAID WE HAD AN ASSAULT.

RIGHT, THAT'S OURS. A HOMELESS GUY BEAT UP A WOMAN.

SHE GIVE A DESCRIPTION WE COULD PUT OUT?

THAT'D BRING IN HALF THE BUMS IN THE CITY.

WE'RE GOING TO SEE IF SHE DOES BETTER WHEN SHE'S CALMED DOWN.

LET ME KNOW AFTER YOU TALK TO HER AGAIN.

THAT'S QUITE A SHINER, GREG.

HOW'D YOU GET THAT?

I, UH, SLIPPED IN THE TUB.

REALLY? YEAH.

HOW DOES THAT GIVE YOU A BLACK EYE?

WHEN I WENT DOWN, I CAUGHT MY EYE ON THE SPOUT.

BAM.

WELL, SOUNDS PAINFUL.

YEAH, 2 INCHES ANOTHER WAY, I COULD HAVE LOST THE EYE.

WELL, YOU TAKE CARE OF THAT.

I WILL.

[ SIGHS ]

WHAT?

WHEN YOU SLIPPED,

WAS THERE A GUY LYING IN THE TUB WITH HIS FIST COCKED?

EXCUSE ME, I NEED TO TALK TO THE DETECTIVES

WHO CAUGHT THE LUCY WELKER CASE.

THAT'S OURS.

DETECTIVE CLARK. COUNSELOR.

I HEARD SHE WAS BEATEN UP. THAT'S RIGHT.

SHE SAY WHO DID IT? A HOMELESS GUY.

IS THERE SOMEPLACE WE CAN TALK?

[ CLEARS THROAT ] RIGHT THIS WAY.

LUCY WELKER IS SUPPOSED TO TESTIFY FOR ME THIS AFTERNOON

IN A FELONY MURDER CASE.

I'M ASSUMING SHE DIDN'T MENTION THAT.

NO, SHE DIDN'T.

I CALLED THE HOSPITAL WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THE ATTACK,

AND THEY TOLD ME THAT SHE WALKED OUT

WITHOUT THEM HAVING A LOOK AT HER.

SHE'S NOT AT HOME. SHE'S NOT ANSWERING HER CELL.

I THINK SHE'S ON THE RUN.

WHAT'S THE CASE?

THE ABERDEEN WAREHOUSE FIRE. YOU KNOW IT?

IS THAT WITH THIS KORENSKY GUY? RIGHT.

WHO'S HE?

HE SELLS, LIKE, DISCOUNT ELECTRONICS ?? TVs, VCRs ??

BUT HE'S A BAD GUY.

TORCHED ONE OF HIS WAREHOUSES FOR THE INSURANCE.

HOW'D HE GET CHARGED WITH HOMICIDE?

IS THAT WHERE THE FIREMAN DIED? RIGHT.

WHAT DOES LUCY WELKER GIVE YOU?

SHE WAS KORENSKY'S SECRETARY.

SHE SAW HIM PUTTING CANS OF ACCELERANT INTO HIS CAR.

HOW BADLY WAS SHE HURT?

SOME BRUISES. NOTHING BROKEN.

SHE HAVE ANY RELATIVES OR FRIENDS IN THE AREA ??

PEOPLE SHE'D GO TO?

SHE HAS A SISTER IN BASKING RIDGE, NEW JERSEY.

OTHER THAN THAT, NOBODY I KNOW OF.

WE'LL GET ON IT.

IF YOU DON'T MIND,

I'D LIKE TO PUT SOME OF OUR D. A. INVESTIGATORS ON IT, TOO.

WE CAUGHT THE CASE. WE GOT IT.

NONETHELESS. IS THERE A PROBLEM HERE?

FRANKLY, LAST TIME I WORKED WITH YOU TWO,

IT REALLY DIDN'T TURN OUT TOO WELL.

WE'RE IN OR WE'RE OUT. YOU WANT THE CASE, TAKE IT.

OTHERWISE, LET US DO OUR WORK.

KEEP ME POSTED.

SURE.

COUNSELOR...

MY PARTNER WASN'T THE PROBLEM LAST TIME.

I WAS, AND, UH, I'M SORRY FOR THAT.

IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

YOU HAVE MY WORD.

IF YOU WANT ME TO BELIEVE THAT, SHOW ME.

UNDERSTAND MR. KORENSKY'S UNDER NO OBLIGATION

TO ANSWER ANY OF YOUR QUESTIONS.

HE'S AGREED TO SPEAK WITH YOU SOLELY

OUT OF CONCERN FOR MISS WELKER'S WELL?BEING.

APPRECIATE IT.

SHOULD I DEEM ANY QUESTION INAPPROPRIATE,

I WILL CUT OFF THIS INTERVIEW IMMEDIATELY.

ARE WE CLEAR? SURE.

I'M SICK WHAT HAPPENED TO HER.

HOW LONG HAS SHE WORKED FOR YOU? THREE YEARS MAYBE.

KNOW ANYONE WHO WOULD WANT TO HURT HER?

FOR WHAT? FOR ANYTHING.

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

YOU HAVE CONTACT WITH HER RECENTLY?

[ CHUCKLES ] GUYS, LOOK WHERE I AM.

IT'S NOT LIKE SHE'S BEEN VISITING.

YOU EVER CALL HER?

OF COURSE NOT. THAT WOULD BE INAPPROPRIATE.

YOU HAVE CONTACT RECENTLY WITH ANYONE ELSE ??

YOUR BROTHER, PEOPLE FROM WORK?

SIMON, DON'T ANSWER THAT.

WHAT, THEY DON'T HAVE THE PHONE RECORDS?

I TALK TO SOMEBODY FROM WORK EVERY DAY.

I GOT A BUSINESS TO RUN.

I DON'T LET NOTHING STOP ME FROM DOING THAT.

YOU TALK TO ANYBODY AT WORK ABOUT LUCY?

FELLAS, WE ARE DONE.

IF YOU THINK I'M GOING TO LET YOU STICK

A WITNESS?INTIMIDATION CHARGE ON MY CLIENT, YOU ARE MISTAKEN.

THE BEST, I GOT HERE.

LET'S GO.

I DON'T HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FIRE,

AND I DON'T HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS.

IT'S JUST COINCIDENCE SHE GETS BEAT UP

THE SAME DAY SHE'S GOING TO TESTIFY AGAINST YOU?

DETECTIVE, I SAID WE'RE DONE!

WHAT'S THE MATTER, YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH PROBLEMS?

WHAT ARE THEY BOTHERING ME FOR?

YOU LEAN ON WITNESSES, YOU'RE ONLY GOING TO MAKE IT WORSE.

GIVE LUCY MY BEST.

WHERE ARE WE WITH LUCY WELKER?

CHECKING PLANES, TRAINS, AND AUTOMOBILES.

NOTHING FROM THE AIRLINES YET.

ME AND JOHN ALSO HAVE BEEN LOOKING INTO KORENSKY.

WHAT HAVE YOU FOUND?

HIS FATHER STARTED A BUSINESS. SIMON TOOK IT OVER.

HE'S BEEN ARRESTED

FOR GOING AFTER SOMEBODY WITH A BASEBALL BAT.

THEY DROPPED THE CHARGES.

HE ALLEGEDLY THREW A GUY OUT A WINDOW.

HE SURVIVED. ALSO DROPPED THE CHARGES.

ABOUT A HALF A DOZEN MORE THAT FOLLOW THE SAME GENERAL PATTERN.

WHAT'D YOU GET WHEN YOU TALKED TO HIM?

CHESTY PRICK LAUGHED AT US.

I JUST SPOKE TO THE PORT AUTHORITY POLICE.

LUCY WELKER BOUGHT A TICKET ON A BUS TO BASKING RIDGE.

SOON AS YOU GOT HER, GIVE ME A CALL. ALL RIGHT.

CAN I HELP YOU?

JAMES McGOWAN TO SEE LIEUTENANT BALE.

LIEUTENANT?

MR. McGOWAN, COME IN.

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY.

I DON'T BELIEVE I'VE SEEN YOU IN MY BAR, LIEUTENANT.

NO, YOU HAVEN'T.

WE SERVE A LIBERAL GLASS FOR NEW YORK'S FINEST.

AND CHARGE FULL PRICE, I HOPE.

[ Chuckling ] ALWAYS.

SO, IF YOU DON'T MIND MY ASKING, WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?

MR. McGOWAN, WE HAVE CERTAIN RULES IN THE DEPARTMENT.

ONE IS THAT AN OFFICER CAN'T BE EMPLOYED BY A BAR.

I RECEIVED AN ANONYMOUS TIP

THAT ONE OF MY DETECTIVES IS WORKING AS A BOUNCER FOR YOU.

IT'S A LIE, SIR, FLAT?OUT.

GREG MEDAVOY ISN'T YOUR BOUNCER?

GREG? NO?

A CUSTOMER, FOR SURE, BUT THAT'S ALL.

SO, HE DIDN'T GET THAT BLACK EYE WORKING FOR YOU?

NO, WE HAD A BIT OF A DONNYBROOK LAST NIGHT, AND GREG MIXED IN,

BUT THAT WAS STRICTLY AS A FRIEND.

I'D LAY MONEY THAT THE GUY WE HAD TO PUT OUT

WAS THE ONE WHO CALLED.

MR. McGOWAN, I SPENT A NUMBER OF YEARS

WORKING IN THE DEPARTMENT'S INTERNAL?AFFAIRS DIVISION.

THAT GAVE ME A PRETTY GOOD EAR FOR WHEN SOMEONE'S LYING TO ME,

SO I'M GOING TO REPEAT MY QUESTION.

AND IF YOU LIE TO ME AGAIN,

YOU CAN EXPECT THE STATE LIQUOR AUTHORITY AND THE VICE SQUAD

TO BECOME A CONSTANT PRESENCE AT YOUR BAR ??

SO MUCH SO THAT EVENTUALLY YOU'LL PADLOCK THE DOORS

AND WALK AWAY.

NOW, LET'S START AGAIN.

IS GREG MEDAVOY WORKING AS A BOUNCER FOR YOU?

HE KILLED THIS BOY'S MOTHER.

HE WAS ACQUITTED. HE GOT A GOOD LAWYER.

THE ACQUITTAL MEANS THAT THE CRIME NEVER HAPPENED.

IF YOU COULD HAVE SEEN WHAT HE DID TO THAT WOMAN ??

AS FAR AS THE COURT IS CONCERNED, IT'S A NONISSUE.

NOW, YOU SAID THERE'S AN AUNT.

CRAIG BEAT HER UP WHEN MICHAEL WAS STAYING WITH HER.

WILL SHE TESTIFY TO THAT? I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T KNOW. SHE'S SCARED OF HIM.

I'M STILL TRYING TO GET IN TOUCH WITH HER.

ANY CHANCE SHE COULD ATTEND THE HEARING THIS AFTERNOON?

PROBABLY NOT.

WE CAN'T BRING UP THE ATTACK

UNLESS THERE'S SOMEONE TO TESTIFY TO IT.

CRAIG DID TIME IN PRISON.

HE WAS ARRESTED FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.

WE NEED SOMEONE TO TESTIFY

TO HIS CURRENT PROPENSITY FOR VIOLENCE.

YOU KNOW, AFTER YOU CALLED, I SPOKE TO BOBBI KINGSTON.

SHE SAID YOU WERE THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO MICHAEL.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT,

BUT I THINK WE HAVE A PRETTY GOOD SITUATION.

SEEING CRAIG IS JUST GOING TO MESS HIM UP.

I UNDERSTAND.

DO YOU THINK THE COURT WILL GIVE CRAIG CUSTODY?

CUSTODY'S NOT THE ISSUE TODAY,

SO LET'S JUST DEAL WITH WHAT'S IN FRONT OF US.

WORST CASE, CAN THEY GIVE HIM CUSTODY?

COULD THEY? YES.

HE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT MICHAEL.

HE JUST WANTS TO GET BACK AT ME.

I GOT TO DO WHATEVER I CAN TO STOP THIS.

ALL RIGHT.

I'LL GET IN TOUCH WITH JUDGE COLISH

AND LET HIM KNOW WE'LL BE AT THE HEARING.

THANK YOU.

[ GASPS ]

LUCY, STOP!

STOP, LUCY!

OH, NO!

LET GO!

LET ME GO!

PLEASE HELP ME!

LUCY, CALM DOWN.

PLEASE HELP ME! HEY, LET HER GO!

TAKE IT EASY. WE'RE POLICE OFFICERS.

IS SHE UNDER ARREST?

SIR, JUST LET US DO OUR JOB.

I WANT TO KNOW, IS SHE UNDER ARREST?!

HEY, ASSHOLE, YOU WANT TO GET LOCKED UP?!

FOR WHAT?! OBSTRUCTION OF GOVERNMENTAL ADMINISTRATION!

YOU GUYS GOT A NAME FOR EVERYTHING, DON'T YOU?!

I'M TELLING YOU, KEEP TALKING, YOU'RE GOING IN.

TELL THEM YOU COULDN'T FIND ME. TELL THEM I WAS ALREADY GONE.

LUCY, JUST CALM DOWN.

I REALLY NEED TO SEE MY SISTER.

RIGHT NOW, YOU HAVE TO COME WITH US.

OKAY.

YOU GUYS MIGHT WANT TO GET IN HERE.

CAN I FINISH WHAT I'M DOING?

THE BOSS IS LAYING INTO HER PRETTY GOOD.

I GOT TO CALL YOU BACK.

SO I THINK YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET IN THERE.

[ SIGHS ]

THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY HAS DECLARED YOU A MATERIAL WITNESS

IN THE CASE, MISS WELKER.

THAT MEANS THAT, SHOULD YOU TRY TO RUN AGAIN,

YOU'LL BE PLACED IN CUSTODY.

AND IF WE HAVE TO, WE'LL PUT YOU IN THE CIVIL JAIL.

HEY, BOSS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO MAKE IT ANY CLEARER.

TAKE OFF AGAIN, AND WE'LL ARREST YOU.

DETECTIVE CLARK, I'M UNDER ARREST?

ONLY IF YOU FLEE.

OH, MY GOD.

BOSS, SHE NEEDS A MINUTE.

SHE NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND HER STATUS.

[ SOBBING ]

LET ME KNOW WHEN SHE'S READY TO TALK.

LUCY.

AM I REALLY UNDER ARREST?

NO, YOU'RE NOT.

I'M SORRY I RAN AWAY.

YOU WERE SO NICE TO ME, TOO.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT REALLY HAPPENED THIS MORNING?

I SHOULD CALL MY SISTER. SHE'S EXPECTING ME.

OKAY, YOU CAN DO THAT IN A MINUTE,

BUT, LUCY, WHO WAS IT THAT ASSAULTED YOU THIS MORNING?

[ SIGHS ] OH.

I'VE SEEN HIM AROUND THE OFFICE.

HIS NAME IS LOU DE SILVA.

HE TOLD ME THAT IF I TESTIFIED AGAINST SIMON,

HE'D CUT MY THROAT, AND THEN HE HIT ME.

I KEPT ASKING HIM TO STOP,

BUT HE JUST KEPT HITTING ME.

IT'S OKAY.

I CAN'T TESTIFY. I CAN'T.

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PUT ME IN JAIL.

NO, WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO THAT. I'M SCARED.

GOD, I'M SO SCARED.

[ SOBS ]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, CRAIG?

I'M VARNISHING THIS BENCH.

WHEN I'M DONE,

I'M GOING TO VARNISH THAT ONE.

MICHAEL AND ME, WE GOT A STABLE SITUATION.

THE BEST THING FOR HIM WOULD BE FOR YOU TO LEAVE US ALONE.

I'M HOPING THAT MEANS SOMETHING TO YOU.

I SHOULD HAVE COME AND TALKED TO YOU MAN?TO?MAN ABOUT THIS,

BUT MY LAWYER DIDN'T THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA.

TELL YOU THE TRUTH, I WAS A LITTLE AFRAID TO SEE YOU.

THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT RIGHT. YOU DESERVE BETTER, MY BROTHER.

WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON HERE? WHAT ARE YOU AFTER?

I WANT TO SEE MY SON.

OKAY, YOU GOING TO TELL ME YOU FOUND GOD?

YOU BEEN SAVED?

NOT GOING TO BRAG ABOUT IT, BUT I'M NOT THE MAN I USED TO BE.

THAT MAN LIVED IN A BOTTLE.

WASN'T SOBER TWO DAYS IN A ROW FROM THE AGE OF 13.

HURT A LOT OF PEOPLE.

I GOT TO ANSWER FOR WHAT HE DID, BUT I AIN'T HIM.

I'VE BEEN CLEAN AND SOBER SEVEN MONTHS.

DON'T LIVE IN A BOTTLE ANYMORE.

THE BOTTLE ACCOUNT FOR YOUR WIFE GETTING BEAT TO DEATH?

I DIDN'T DO THAT. MICHAEL SAYS DIFFERENT.

MICHAEL'S ANGRY AT ME. HE GOT A RIGHT.

THAT DON'T MAKE EVERYTHING HE SAYS THE TRUTH.

THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOU AND ME, CRAIG.

I KNOW MICHAEL'S TELLING THE TRUTH.

JONES, I'M NOT TRYING TO COME BETWEEN YOU AND MICHAEL.

I JUST WANT TO BE A PART OF MY SON'S LIFE.

THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

I GOT NO FIGHT WITH YOU,

BUT THERE'S THINGS I NEED TO DO, BEING HIS FATHER.

HOPE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT.

JONES?

I'M GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU DONE.

I'M LOOKING FOR A LOU DE SILVA.

IS THIS THE CORRECT NUMBER?

I'M WITH THE NEW YORK STATE TAXATION AND FINANCE OFFICE.

MR. DE SILVA'S DUE SOME MONEY,

AND WE DON'T KNOW WHERE TO SEND IT.

IT'S ABOUT $1,200.

ALL RIGHT, GREAT, WE'LL SEND SOMEONE OUT.

AND HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO SIGN FOR IT,

SO WE'RE GOING TO NEED TO SEE SOME I. D.

MM?HMM, THANK YOU.

WHERE'S HE NOW?

LONG ISLAND CITY. HE'LL BE THERE IN HALF AN HOUR.

HI, MY NAME'S JANET WELKER. I'M LOOKING FOR MY SISTER.

YEAH, DETECTIVES SIPOWICZ AND CLARK.

WE'RE WORKING YOUR SISTER'S CASE.

IS LUCY HERE? IS SHE ALL RIGHT?

SHE'S OKAY. SHE'S UPSTAIRS SLEEPING NOW.

DETECTIVE MURPHY WILL FILL YOU IN.

WE'LL BE BACK LATER. JOHN, SIGN US OUT.

HI. THIS IS DETECTIVE ORTIZ. SHE'S WORKING THE CASE, TOO.

HOW DO YOU DO? WOULD YOU LIKE SOME COFFEE?

TEA, IF YOU HAVE IT.

WHY DON'T WE GO BACK HERE?

AS SOON AS I GOT LUCY'S MESSAGE, I GOT ON THE TRAIN.

DOES SHE TELL YOU MUCH ABOUT WORK?

[ CHUCKLES ]

I KNEW, FROM THE START, IT WOULD BE TROUBLE.

THIS KORENSKY SOUNDED JUST DREADFUL.

SOME PEOPLE ARE EQUIPPED TO DEAL

WITH THE KORENSKYS OF THIS WORLD.

MY SISTER'S NOT ONE OF THEM. SHE'S FRAGILE.

NOT MUCH IN THE SELF?CONFIDENCE DEPARTMENT, UNFORTUNATELY.

I THINK THIS WAS MORE THAN A FAILURE OF SELF?CONFIDENCE.

I'VE SEEN HER IN SIMILAR SITUATIONS ??

ADMITTEDLY, NONE QUITE SO DRAMATIC.

I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S UP TO TESTIFYING.

I BLAME OUR FATHER.

WHAT DID HE DO?

HE DRANK, YELLED.

OUR MOTHER WAS DEAD.

LUCY WAS THE ONLY ONE LIVING WITH HIM,

SO IT ALL FELL ON HER, AND SHE JUST TOOK IT.

I TRIED TO PROTECT HER WHEN I WAS THERE,

BUT ONCE I WENT AWAY TO SCHOOL, THAT WASN'T VERY OFTEN.

DID HE HIT HER?

OH, YEAH.

WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL SOMEONE ?? THE POLICE?

[ CHUCKLES ]

PEOPLE LIKE US DON'T DO THAT.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

WE GOT TO HEAD DOWN TO FAMILY COURT.

WHAT FOR?

YOUR DAD ASKED FOR A HEARING IN FRONT OF THE JUDGE.

WHY?

HE'S ASKING FOR VISITATION RIGHTS WITH YOU.

YOU'RE KIDDING? NO.

TELL THE JUDGE I DON'T WANT IT. THAT'S WHAT MATTERS, RIGHT?

IT'S A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT, MICHAEL.

IT'S NOT COMPLICATED FOR ME.

BECAUSE IT'S YOUR DAD, THE JUDGE IS GOING TO HEAR HIM OUT.

BUT HE'S ALSO GOING TO HEAR FROM YOU, ME, AND BOBBI.

MY DAD'S PRETTY GOOD AT PERSUADING PEOPLE

WHEN HE WANTS TO.

THINK THE JUDGE IS GOING TO GO ALONG WITH IT?

I CAN'T SAY IT COULDN'T HAPPEN.

MAN.

WELL, NO ONE'S TALKING ABOUT CUSTODY, THOUGH, RIGHT?

NO.

BUT IT COULD COME UP LATER.

I DON'T BELIEVE IT.

BUT THAT'S NOT AN ISSUE TODAY.

ALL WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS SHOULD HE BE ABLE TO SEE YOU.

I DON'T WANT TO SEE HIM, AND I DON'T WANT TO LIVE WITH HIM.

ONE THING AT A TIME, OKAY?

[ SIGHS ]

I WANT TO STAY WITH YOU.

THEN YOU'RE STAYING WITH ME.

THAT'S A PROMISE.

I DON'T CARE WHAT THE JUDGE SAYS.

THEN THAT'S THE WAY IT'S GOING TO BE.

[ SIGHS ] COME ON, WE SHOULD GET GOING.

SIT DOWN, LOU.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WANT.

I AIN'T DONE NOTHING. NO?

WHERE WERE YOU AT 7:00 THIS MORNING?

I WAS IN BED.

WHO'S GOING TO BACK THAT UP?

MY GIRL.

WHO WE KNOW IS AN UPSTANDING CITIZEN.

YOU ASKED.

I DON'T THINK SO, LOU.

I THINK YOU WERE OUT ON THE STREET,

BEATING UP A NICE LADY NAMED LUCY WELKER.

DON'T KNOW HER. NEVER SEEN HER.

THAT'S FUNNY. SHE'S SEEN YOU.

IN ABOUT FIVE MINUTES,

SHE'S GOING TO PICK YOU OUT OF A LINEUP.

THEN SHE'S BLIND AS A BAT OR LYING.

THIS AIN'T NO PENNY?ANTE ASSAULT CHARGE.

IT'S WITNESS INTIMIDATION. THAT'S MINIMUM A 10?YEAR BIT.

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

TAKE OFF YOUR CLOTHES, LOU.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I SAID, "TAKE OFF YOUR CLOTHES."

YOU GOING TO VIOLATE ME?

NO, NO SUCH LUCK.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE YOUR CLOTHES TESTED,

BECAUSE WE'RE BETTING THAT YOU'RE STUPID ENOUGH

NOT TO HAVE CHANGED THEM SINCE YOU BEAT ON THAT WOMAN.

WE FIND HER BLOOD ON THEM, YOU'RE DONE.

[ SIGHS ] OKAY.

OKAY, LOOK, MAYBE I HIT HER INADVERTENTLY,

BUT IT WASN'T NO WITNESS INTIMIDATION.

WHAT WAS IT?

I WAS GOING AFTER HER PURSE.

YOU DIDN'T TAKE HER PURSE.

I SAW SOMEBODY COMING. I PANICKED.

I'M NEW TO THIS.

YOU'RE RAISING THE BAR ON STUPID, LOU!

I'M TELLING YOU WHAT HAPPENED.

YEAH, YOU JUST HAPPENED TO TRY AND ROB THE WOMAN

WHO'S ABOUT TO TESTIFY AGAINST YOUR BOSS?

FIRST I HEARD ABOUT THAT.

WE KNOW KORENSKY PUT YOU UP TO THIS.

YOU WANT TO HELP YOURSELF, YOU GIVE HIM UP.

THANKS FOR THE ADVICE.

I GIVE UP KORENSKY, AND I'M DONE.

FORGET HELPING MYSELF.

WHATEVER TIME I GOT TO DO FOR ASSAULT,

I'LL DO STANDING ON MY HEAD.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN IF YOU GIVE UP KORENSKY, YOU'RE DONE?

NOTHING.

I DON'T MEAN NOTHING BY THAT.

MEDAVOY.

[ SIGHS ] YES, SIR?

COME INTO MY OFFICE.

CLOSE THE DOOR.

SIT DOWN.

DETECTIVE, THIS IS THE PATROL GUIDE.

YOU HAVE A COPY, RIGHT? YES, SIR.

SECTION 120.14 ??

"OFF?DUTY EMPLOYMENT IS PROHIBITED

"WHEN IT INVOLVES EMPLOYMENT IN ANY PREMISES

"LICENSED BY THE STATE LIQUOR AUTHORITY,

PURSUANT TO THE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL LAW."

IS THAT PAGE MISSING FROM YOUR COPY?

NO, SIR.

SO YOU KNEW YOU WERE VIOLATING DEPARTMENTAL REGULATIONS

WHEN YOU WENT TO WORK AT McGOWAN'S?

SIR, IF I COULD JUST EXPLAIN.

I RECEIVED AN ANONYMOUS ALLEGATION

THAT YOU WERE WORKING THERE.

I'VE CONFIRMED THAT ALLEGATION.

AS A RESULT, I'VE REFERRED THE MATTER TO INTERNAL AFFAIRS.

YOU'RE GOING TO SEND ME TO THEM?

NO, DETECTIVE, YOU'RE SENDING YOURSELF THERE.

THE GUIDE COULDN'T BE CLEARER.

YOU CHOSE TO IGNORE IT FOR A COUPLE OF HUNDRED BUCKS

AND ALL THE WATERED?DOWN SCOTCH YOU COULD DRINK.

STILL, LIEUTENANT, ALL RESPECT,

I'M NOT THE FIRST GUY TO DO IT, NOT BY A LONG SHOT.

YOU'RE THE FIRST UNDER MY COMMAND.

I'M NOT TRYING TO BE HARSH, BUT YOU'VE GIVEN ME NO CHOICE.

I TOLD THE SQUAD HOW I WANTED TO RUN THINGS.

YOU DIDN'T LISTEN. I TRIED GIVING RIPS.

THEY DIDN'T GET YOUR ATTENTION, SO HERE WE ARE.

BOSS, I?I WORKED THERE A WEEK.

I DON'T CARE.

I EXPECT YOU TO CARRY OUT YOUR DUTIES

WHILE THIS MAKES ITS WAY THROUGH THE SYSTEM.

IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE, DETECTIVE?

NO, SIR.

THEN WE'RE DONE.

[ DOOR OPENS, SLAMS ]

[ WATER RUNNING ]

[ DOOR OPENS ]

YOU OKAY, MEDAVOY?

HE CLEANED MY CLOCK, ANDY.

HE CLEANED IT GOOD.

I'M GOING TO WIND UP GOING TO THE TRIAL ROOM.

HE SAID THAT?

LOOK AT ME. MY HANDS ARE SHAKING.

THEY'RE GOING TO DUMP ME BACK TO UNIFORM.

55 YEARS OLD,

I'M GOING TO BE ON THE STREET AGAIN.

WHY IS HE DOING IT?

I BROKE THE RULE. THAT'S WHAT HE SAID.

ONE WHOLE WEEK I WORKED AT THAT PLACE.

HE DOESN'T WANT ME HERE, ANDY.

[ SIGHS ] WHAT AM I DOING HERE?

MEDAVOY, LISTEN TO ME.

YOU'RE GOING TO GET THROUGH THIS.

YEAH? YEAH.

END OF THE DAY, YOU'RE GOING TO BE RIGHT BACK WHERE YOU STARTED.

SO WHAT?

SO A COUPLE OF YEARS FROM NOW,

SOMEBODY CAN COME IN AND FIND ME AT MY DESK

WITH MY HEAD IN A PUDDLE OF COLD COFFEE?

IS THAT WHAT I'M FIGHTING FOR, ANDY?

YOU GOT TO DECIDE WHAT YOU WANT.

YOU WANT TO PUT IN YOUR PAPERS, YOU'VE EARNED THAT RIGHT.

YEAH.

YEAH, I GOT TO THINK.

GO HOME, GET SOME REST.

CALL YOUR DELEGATE, FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO.

YEAH.

YEAH, THAT'S GOOD ADVICE.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

YOUR HONOR, MR. WOODRUFF IS GAINFULLY EMPLOYED

AND HAS ESTABLISHED A STABLE HOME,

AS THE PAY STUBS AND RENT CHECKS WE PROVIDED SHOW.

HE REGULARLY ATTENDS MEETINGS OF ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS

AND HAS BEEN CLEAN AND SOBER FOR SEVEN MONTHS.

HE ACKNOWLEDGES A LESS?THAN?PERFECT PAST,

WHICH IS WHY HE'S ASKING FOR THE CHANCE

TO REPAIR THE DAMAGE HE'S DONE

AND REBUILD A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS SON.

THANK YOU, MISS FRIEDMAN.

I HAVE AN APPLICATION FOR INTERVENTION

FROM MICHAEL'S FOSTER PARENT, MR. BALDWIN JONES.

ARCHIE DAY, REPRESENTING MR. JONES, YOUR HONOR.

JUDGE COLISH, WE OBJECT.

MR. JONES HAS NO LEGAL STANDING IN THIS MATTER.

MISS FRIEDMAN, THE ONLY STANDARD HERE

IS BEST INTEREST OF THE CHILD.

PARTICULARLY SINCE THERE'S BEEN NO LAW GUARDIAN

APPOINTED YET,

I HAVE NO OBJECTION TO HEARING HIM OUT.

YOUR HONOR, WE SUBMIT

THAT MR. WOODRUFF'S PETITION SHOULD BE REFUSED.

HE IS A CONVICTED FELON WITH A HISTORY OF VIOLENT BEHAVIOR,

AND HE WAS CHARGED WITH MURDERING MICHAEL'S OWN MOTHER

IN MICHAEL'S PRESENCE.

HE WAS ACQUITTED, AND WE STRENUOUSLY OBJECT

TO THESE KINDS OF PREJUDICIAL STATEMENTS.

IT'S OUT OF BOUNDS, MR. DAY. KEEP GOING.

MR. WOODRUFF'S VIOLENT HISTORY

FAR OUTWEIGHS HIS RECENT, BRIEF,

AND NOT ALTOGETHER CONVINCING STINT

AS AN UPSTANDING CITIZEN.

IN ADDITION,

MICHAEL HAS TESTIFIED AGAINST HIS FATHER IN OPEN COURT.

AND AS HIS CRIMINAL RECORD SHOWS,

MR. WOODRUFF RESPONDS BRUTALLY TO THOSE WHO OPPOSE HIM.

ANY CONTACT WITH HIM WOULD PRESENT A GRAVE PHYSICAL

AND PSYCHOLOGICAL THREAT TO MICHAEL.

YOUR HONOR, CRAIG WOODRUFF SERVED HIS TIME IN PRISON

AND MET EVERY CONDITION OF HIS PAROLE.

SHOULD HE BE PUNISHED FOR THAT?

THAT'S NOT WHAT WE'RE SAYING.

MR. JONES AND HIS ATTORNEY, FOR REASONS OF THEIR OWN,

MAY NOT BE CONVINCED,

BUT WE HAVE AFFIDAVITS FROM THOSE WHO ARE,

WHO KNOW MR. WOODRUFF ?? HIS MINISTER, HIS EMPLOYER.

FORTUNATELY, WE'RE NOT DECIDING CUSTODY HERE.

THE ONLY QUESTION BEFORE US

IS WHETHER MICHAEL SHOULD HAVE SOME MINIMAL CONTACT

WITH HIS SOLE SURVIVING PARENT.

MR. WOODRUFF HAS SUBMITTED AMPLE EVIDENCE

OF A CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES.

ABSENT EVIDENCE OF A CURRENT PROPENSITY TO VIOLENCE

ON HIS PART,

I DON'T SEE ANY GROUNDS TO DENY THE PETITION.

PENDING PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS OF THE PARTIES,

I AM GRANTING PETITIONER ONE SUPERVISED VISIT A WEEK.

THANK YOU, JUDGE.

IF I HEAR YOU'VE ABUSED YOUR PRIVILEGE IN ANY WAY,

THAT'S THE END OF IT.

DO WE UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER, SIR?

I KNOW I GOT A LOT TO PROVE, JUDGE.

I'M GRATEFUL FOR THE CHANCE TO SEE MY BOY.

[ SIGHS ]

[ SIGHS ]

THANK YOU.

HI, LUCY.

OH, I CAN'T DO THIS.

NOW LISTEN TO ME.

AS SOON AS WE START, I'M GOING TO PUT YOU ON THE STAND.

THE CLERK IS GOING TO SWEAR YOU IN.

THEN I WILL START ASKING QUESTIONS.

IT'LL BE JUST LIKE WE DISCUSSED.

HOW LONG WILL IT LAST? I CAN'T SAY.

THE DEFENSE HAS TO ASK THEIR QUESTIONS.

CAN'T THIS BE CONDUCTED IN THE JUDGE'S CHAMBERS ??

SOMEWHERE AWAY FROM WHERE HE'S SITTING?

HE HAS THE RIGHT TO BE PRESENT WHEN LUCY TESTIFIES. OH, GOD.

HE CAN'T COME ANYWHERE NEAR YOU. HE CAN'T TALK TO YOU.

ALL HE CAN DO IS SIT THERE.

HE'LL BE LOOKING AT ME.

JUST DON'T LOOK AT HIM, LUCE.

I REALLY DON'T THINK I CAN DO THIS.

LUCY, I'M GOING TO STAY HERE.

IF YOU START TO GET NERVOUS ABOUT SIMON, LOOK AT ME.

FOCUS HERE. TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED.

YOU'RE GOING TO BE IN HERE?

RIGHT IN FRONT.

OKAY.

THE JUDGE KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED THIS MORNING.

I CAN GET A CONTINUANCE UNTIL TOMORROW IF YOU NEED IT.

NO, I WANT IT OVER WITH.

THANKS FOR STICKING AROUND.

NO PROBLEM.

[ SIGHS ]

MICHAEL, IT'S ONLY AN HOUR.

A LOT CAN HAPPEN IN AN HOUR.

BOBBI WILL BE WITH YOU THE WHOLE TIME, ALL RIGHT?

CRAIG DOES ANYTHING OUT OF LINE, SHE'LL BE ALL OVER HIM,

AND YOU KNOW HOW TOUGH SHE CAN BE.

IT WON'T BE THAT OBVIOUS.

IT'LL BE THE WAY HE SAYS SOMETHING, A LOOK.

SHE WON'T SEE IT.

THEN YOU COME TELL ME, AND I'LL LET HER KNOW.

I DON'T SEE WHY YOU CAN'T BE THERE.

WHY DO THEY GET TO SAY WHAT I GOT TO DO WITH MY LIFE?

BECAUSE THEY'RE THE COURT.

AFTERWARDS, WE'LL GO GET A PIZZA AND RENT A MOVIE.

HOW ABOUT THAT?

CAN WE GO TO JOHN'S? OH.

BUT IF YOU THINK YOU'RE PUTTING PINEAPPLE ON A PIZZA I'M EATING,

YOU GOT ANOTHER THINK COMING.

THAT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.

MICHAEL, ARE YOU READY?

HE'S NOT MY DAD.

HE'S JUST THIS GUY WHO KILLED MY MOM.

YOU GOT TO DO THIS, SON.

COME ON, BABY.

HEY, HOW'D IT GO?

LUCY DID GREAT.

I WAS REALLY NERVOUS AT FIRST. THEN IT WENT AWAY...A LITTLE.

I WAS SO PROUD OF YOU.

HOW'D THE CROSS GO?

THEY DIDN'T GET TO IT. WHAT HAPPENED?

THE DEFENSE ASKED FOR AN ADJOURNMENT.

THEY'LL DO THE CROSS TOMORROW.

I DON'T SEE HOW THEY CAN DO THAT.

IT SEEMS SO UNFAIR.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN IN TERMS OF PROVIDING PROTECTION?

THAT'S WHAT WE CAME HERE TO STRAIGHTEN OUT.

SHE'S NOT DONE TESTIFYING. SHE STILL NEEDS PROTECTION.

I DON'T WANT ANYBODY RACKING UP OVERTIME ON THIS.

GIVE IT TO THE NIGHT WATCH.

WOULD THAT MEAN DIFFERENT POLICE OFFICERS?

NO. BOSS, I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT OFF THE CLOCK.

YOU'RE GOING TO WORK THROUGH THE NIGHT, PULL A SHIFT TOMORROW?

I'LL BE FINE.

UP TO YOU.

I JUST HAVE TO GRAB SOME THINGS.

WHY DON'T YOU AND YOUR SISTER WAIT DOWNSTAIRS.

I'LL BE THERE IN A MINUTE.

OKAY. OKAY.

WILL YOU BE IN COURT TOMORROW? ABSOLUTELY.

I'LL SEE YOU THEN.

MAYBE I'LL RUN OVER THERE WITH YOU.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT.

YEAH, I'LL JUST CHECK OUT HER APARTMENT

AND GET HER SET UP FOR THE NIGHT.

IT'S ON MY WAY HOME.

NO, IT'S NOT.

SURE, IT IS.

SO YOUR BOSS IS SENDING YOU TO THE TRIAL ROOM.

BOY, YOU MUST HAVE PISSED HIM OFF GOOD.

I DON'T KNOW HOW.

SEE WHAT THEY PUT ON THE TABLE.

MAYBE YOU TAKE SOME KIND OF RIP AND BE DONE WITH IT.

JUST TELL ME THIS.

SINCE WHEN IS WORKING A DOOR AT A BAR

SOMETHING YOU GET SENT TO THE TRIAL ROOM FOR?

LOOK, AS YOUR DELEGATE,

I'M REQUIRED TO INFORM YOU THAT WORKING IN A BAR,

YOU'RE IN VIOLATION.

UNOFFICIALLY, IF THEY CAME DOWN ON EVERYONE

WHO'S DONE WHAT YOU'VE DONE, THEY WOULDN'T HAVE ENOUGH COPS

TO PATROL THE STATEN ISLAND FERRY.

THIS GUY IS ON A MISSION, IS WHAT IT IS.

HE'S LOOKING TO CLEAR OUT OLD GUYS LIKE ME.

YOU GOING TO EAT THAT ROLL?

TAKE IT.

YOU THINK THEY'LL DUMP ME BACK TO UNIFORM?

IN A TRIAL ROOM, ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE.

24 YEARS ON THE JOB, I'M GOING TO FINISH UP WALKING A BEAT.

DON'T GET AHEAD OF YOURSELF.

DO YOU EVER FEEL

LIKE MAYBE YOU'RE TRYING TO HANG ONTO SOMETHING

THAT MAYBE DIDN'T WANT YOU ANYMORE?

ME PERSONALLY?

IF I PUT IN MY PAPERS,

WHAT AM I LOOKING AT COMPENSATION?WISE?

HOW MANY YEARS YOU GOT? 24.

24 YEARS ?? YOU GET HALF PAY, PLUS CHANGE.

YOUR BENNIES STAY THE SAME. [ SIGHS ]

YOUR CO?PAY GOES UP A LITTLE.

YEAH, I CAN'T MAKE IT ON HALF A PAYCHECK.

I WAS HOPING TO PUT IN AT 3/4.

THAT'S ANOTHER 11, 12 YEARS UNLESS YOU GOT A DISABILITY.

NO SUCH LUCK.

ANY CHANCE THERE'S TROUBLE WITH THE TICKER?

WHY?

IF A DOCTOR SAYS YOU NEED A STENT,

THE DEPARTMENT CONSIDERS IT A DISABILITY,

AND THAT PUTS YOU OUT ON IMMEDIATE 3/4 PAY.

WHAT'S A STENT?

A LITTLE THING ?? IT KEEPS THE CARDIAC ARTERY OPEN.

YOU DON'T EVEN NOTICE IT'S THERE.

AND THAT GETS YOU 3/4? TAX?FREE, NO LESS.

YOU CAN GO TO A DOCTOR AND ASK FOR ONE OF THESE THINGS?

IT'S LIKE GETTING A FILLING.

I KNOW TWO GUYS DONE IT THIS YEAR ALONE.

YOU GOING TO EAT THAT BUTTER?

TAKE IT.

A STENT.

BRASS RING, MY FRIEND.

ALL CLEAR.

KEEP THE CURTAINS DRAWN ?? ALL OF THEM.

AND IF SOMEBODY KNOCKS, DON'T OPEN THE DOOR,

EVEN IF IT'S SOMEBODY YOU KNOW.

NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY?

TELL THEM TO TRY NEXT DOOR.

ALL RIGHT.

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

HERE.

HELLO?

NO, WE'RE NOT INTERESTED.

NO. THANKS ANYWAY.

SALESMAN.

I NEED TO SIT DOWN.

JUST DON'T THINK ABOUT IT, LUCE.

MY HEART'S GOING SO FAST, I'M NOT GOING TO SLEEP A WINK.

LUCY, COME HERE.

COME HERE.

SEE THAT CAR ACROSS THE STREET? MM?HMM.

THAT'S MY CAR.

I'LL BE SITTING IN THERE ALL NIGHT.

CALL ME ON MY CELL, I'LL BE UP HERE IN 15 SECONDS.

ALL RIGHT?

OKAY.

YOU'RE GOING TO BE FINE. I PROMISE.

ALL RIGHT.

[ SIGHS ]

THAT WAS A HANG?UP?

I DIDN'T THINK SHE NEEDED TO KNOW.

WHATEVER PAY PHONE IT CAME FROM, I'LL GET IT DUMPED.

[ CLEARS THROAT ] YOU GOING TO BE OKAY?

YEAH.

I CAN COME BY AND SPELL YOU.

OH, I GOT IT, THANKS.

HERE.

THIS IS A TOOTHBRUSH, TOOTHPASTE, RAZOR.

YOU'LL NEED THEM, COME MORNING. YEAH, THANKS.

I FIGURE YOU PROBABLY DIDN'T HAVE ANY OF THAT IN THE CAR.

YEAH, YOU GOT THAT RIGHT.

ALL RIGHT, I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW, JOHN.

YEAH.
