I'M JUST UP HERE WORKING ON THE LIEUTENANT'S SHOOTING.

HOW WE DOING WITH THAT?

WE GOT INFORMATION FROM THE GUY WE COLLARED.

THE ADDRESSES HE GAVE US ARE LEGIT,

BUT WHOEVER WAS THERE HAD MOVED OUT.

I SAW YOU LOOKING AT THE CLUB.

SHOULD WE BRING YOU UP TO SPEED?

WHEN YOU GET TO IT, YOU GET TO IT.

I CAN MAKE COPIES OF WHATEVER YOU NEED.

JUST DON'T BURY ME IN PAPERWORK, NOW.

JUST LET ME KNOW.

SO, ANY OF YOU GOLFERS?

UH, MY DAD PLAYS.

GREATEST GAME IN THE WORLD. GREATEST GAME EVER INVENTED.

LIEUTENANT, I GOT SOME CALLS I GOT TO MAKE.

YEAH, SURE, GO AHEAD.

NO ONE HERE PLAYS, HUH?

NAH.

HER NAME'S FARAH AMAR.

LOOKS LIKE SHE WAS STABBED IN THE CHEST.

YOU THINK?

HOW'D THE JOB COME IN?

NEXT?DOOR NEIGHBOR CALLED IT IN.

HIS NAME'S CHARLES LUSK.

THAT HIM OVER THERE? YEAH.

WAIT TILL YOU GET A LOOK AT THE OUTFIT ON THIS GUY.

YOU CHARLES LUSK? YES.

WHAT HAPPENED THIS MORNING?

I HEARD MUSIC COMING THROUGH THE WALLS.

I KNOCKED ON THE DOOR. THERE WAS NO ANSWER.

THE DOOR WAS OPEN. I WENT IN.

HOW EARLY WAS IT?

ABOUT 8:00.

HOW WELL DID YOU KNOW HER?

WE TALKED ABOUT MUSIC, SINCE ETHNOGRAPHIC FOLK MUSIC

IS WHAT I'M PURSUING MY DOCTORATE IN.

WAS IT UNUSUAL FOR HER TO BE PLAYING MUSIC?

AT THAT HOUR? YES, IT WAS.

AND YOU WERE GOING IN TO ASK HER TO TURN IT DOWN?

I DO MEDITATION AT THAT HOUR, AND I WAS IRRITATED.

WAS FARAH MARRIED? YES.

CAN YOU TELL US ANYTHING ABOUT HER HUSBAND?

I THINK HE WAS A CAB DRIVER. HE WAS GONE A LOT.

ANY PROBLEMS BETWEEN THEM?

I REALLY HATE BEING PUT IN THE POSITION

OF COMMENTING ON SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

NO ONE'S GONNA QUOTE YOU.

ALL RIGHT.

I DID HEAR ARGUING,

THOUGH IT WAS HER HUSBAND WHO DID MOST OF THE YELLING.

ANY IDEA WHAT ABOUT?

THEY SPOKE IN ARABIC. I HAVE NO IDEA.

UM, I'M SUPPOSED TO SEE DETECTIVES.

DO YOU KNOW WHICH ONE?

MISCHA, WE'RE GOING IN THERE.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

YOU COMING?

WHY DON'T YOU TWO TALK TO HIM?

'CAUSE IT'S A COP SHOOTING, IF ANYONE EXPECTS

ARNOLD PALMER IN THERE TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON,

I GOT TO AT LEAST TRY TO BRING HIM UP?TO?DATE.

HOW YOU DOING, MISCHA?

OKAY.

SO, YOU MADE BAIL.

WHAT AM I ASKED TO COME HERE FOR?

WE NEED MORE INFORMATION. HAVE A SEAT.

I HAVE NO MORE.

I TOLD YOU EVERY PLACE I KNOW SERGEI GO TO.

THAT IS NOT TRUE.

100% IS TRUE.

WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE HE DOES BUSINESS WITH?

HE HAVE SEPARATE OPERATION FROM ME.

I DON'T GET INVOLVED HIS BUSINESS.

HE DON'T GET INVOLVED MY BUSINESS.

COME ON, HE WAS IN YOUR APARTMENT.

I TELL YOU ABOUT SISTER, NO?

I TELL YOU ABOUT GIRLFRIEND.

FOR THIS, I GET D. A. GO EASY. YOU SAY.

NOW I'M OUT ON A LIMB WITHOUT PADDLE.

FOR WHAT?

WELL, YOUR CASE STILL HAS TO COME TO TRIAL.

AND YOU WERE COOPERATIVE AT FIRST, WHICH IS GOOD.

YOU'RE NOT BEING COOPERATIVE NOW. THAT'S BAD.

AS FAR AS SERGEI IS CONCERNED, YOU ALREADY FLIPPED.

YOU'RE ALREADY ON OUR TEAM.

WE BOTH NEED SERGEI BEHIND BARS.

OKAY.

YOU WANT SOMETHING FROM MISCHA.

WELL, MISCHA WANT SOMETHING FROM YOU.

SUSPENDED SENTENCE ONLY ?? NO JAIL.

WORK WITH US, MAYBE THAT'S WHAT THE D. A. WILL RECOMMEND.

D.A. TELL ME FROM HORSE'S OWN MOUTH.

OTHERWISE, I TAKE MY CHANCE IN COURT.

MISCHA NOT SO STUPID, LIKE YOU THINK.

[ Egyptian accent ] CAN YOU TELL ME WHY I'M HERE, PLEASE?

YOUR WIFE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT THIS MORNING.

WHAT KIND OF ACCIDENT?

WE'RE CHECKING INTO THAT. HAVE A SEAT.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

WHERE WERE YOU THIS MORNING, MR. AMAR?

DRIVING MY TAXICAB.

YOU LEFT YOUR APARTMENT AT WHAT TIME? 6:00.

WAS YOUR WIFE THERE?

SHE MADE FOR ME BREAKFAST.

WHAT KIND OF ACCIDENT WAS SHE INVOLVED IN?

YOUR WIFE WAS KILLED, MR. AMAR.

[ GASPS ]

HOW YOU KNOW THIS?

WE'RE INVESTIGATING HER DEATH.

SHE WAS MURDERED IN YOUR APARTMENT.

[ Voice breaking ] HOW DID IT HAPPEN?

SHE WAS STABBED.

[ SOBBING ]

HOW WERE YOU AND YOUR WIFE GETTING ALONG, MR. AMAR?

GOOD. FINE.

[ SIGHS ] PERFECT.

WE'VE HEARD FROM PEOPLE IN YOUR BUILDING

THAT YOU USED TO ARGUE QUITE A BIT.

YOU THINK IT MEAN I KILLED HER?

WE'RE NOT SAYING THAT. IBRAHIM DID THIS!

WHO IS THAT? HE KNOW HER FROM EGYPT.

HE WANTED TO MARRY HER, BUT HE HAS NO MONEY.

HIS FAMILY HAVE NO MONEY, SO THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN.

HER FAMILY ALSO HAVE NOTHING.

THEY LIST HER IN AGENCY.

I MAKE ARRANGEMENTS.

WHAT KIND OF ARRANGEMENTS?

I PAY DOWRY. I PAY AGENCY FEES.

I BRING HER HERE TO BE MY WIFE.

IBRAHIM FINDS OUT SHE'S HERE. NOW HE COME.

HOW DID HE FIND OUT?

HER GIRLFRIEND TELL HIM.

DID HE MAKE CONTACT WITH HER?

YES, HE DOES. AND I HAVE HIM IN MY HOME.

I SHOW HIM HOSPITALITY.

THEN, I FIND OUT HE CALL FARAH,

ASKED HER TO SEE HIM BY HERSELF,

TO BEHAVE IN A MANNER ALTOGETHER UNACCEPTABLE

FOR A MARRIED WOMAN.

DID THEY HAVE A ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP?

NO!

ABSOLUTELY.

BECAUSE OF THE SITUATION,

I...SAY HE NOT WELCOME IN MY HOUSE.

BECAUSE SHE'S A GOOD WIFE, SHE TELLS HIM.

SO THIS IS WHAT HE DOES.

HE SAY TO HIMSELF...

"IF I CAN'T HAVE HER, NOBODY CAN HAVE HER."

HOW YOU DOING?

ALL RIGHT.

WHAT ARE THEY SAYING?

TOOK OUT THE SPLEEN. IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL.

THEY EXPECT THE KIDNEY SHOULD HEAL COMPLETELY.

THAT'S GREAT.

WHERE ARE WE WITH THE SHOOTER?

I'M HOPEFUL WE GET SOMETHING OUT OF THIS RUSSIAN.

NOTHING'S PANNED OUT SO FAR?

NOT SO FAR.

HOW'S THE NEW BOSS?

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

UH, UH, HE'S ?? HE'S ALL RIGHT.

YEAH?

HE'S...A GOLFER.

CAN YOU WORK WITH HIM, NOTWITHSTANDING THAT?

HE'S JUST KEEPING YOUR SEAT WARM.

MAYBE NOT.

WHY? SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE ON THE MEND.

THERE'S NERVE DAMAGE.

THERE MAY BE A LOSS OF MOTOR CONTROL ON MY LEFT SIDE.

THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE I'M NOT GONNA BE COMING BACK.

I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT.

YOU MIGHT HAVE TO GET USED TO THE GUY.

I DON'T HAVE TO GET USED TO HIM.

ONCE I GET THE GUY THAT SHOT YOU, I'M BACK DOWNSTAIRS.

YOU EVER THINK YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE THE COMMAND YOURSELF?

NO.

I'M NOT SAYING THEY'D GIVE IT TO YOU, BUT IF I MADE A CALL,

GIVEN THAT IT'S SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES,

IT'S A POSSIBILITY.

I'M NOT CUT OUT TO BE A BOSS, TO COMMAND A SQUAD.

YOU TOOK THE SERGEANT'S TEST.

AND THAT WAS PROBABLY A STUPID IDEA.

I DON'T HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A BOSS.

I DON'T WANT TO BE A BOSS.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL I WAS THINKING.

I'VE BEEN A DETECTIVE SINCE I WAS 31 YEARS OLD.

I SHOULD HAVE STAYED A DETECTIVE.

UNTIL WHEN?

UNTIL I DIED. UNTIL I HIT MANDATORY RETIREMENT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT MADE ME THINK I COULD DO SOMETHING ELSE.

MOMENTARY WAVE OF OPTIMISM?

MORE LIKE TEMPORARY INSANITY.

YOU TALK TO YOUR WIFE ABOUT THIS?

WHY? SO SHE STARTS THINKING IF IT WEREN'T FOR HER AND THE KIDS,

I'D RETIRE ALTOGETHER?

SHE STARTS FEELING GUILTY AND TAKES MY PROBLEMS ON HERSELF?

WHAT GOOD IS THAT?

WELL...

I DON'T PRETEND TO BE AN AUTHORITY ON MARRIAGE.

I WAS SET TO TAKE THE CAPTAIN'S TEST NEXT MONTH.

FOR SURE, THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN?

I WON'T SAY I DON'T HAVE MY DARK MOMENTS THINKING ABOUT IT.

I'M SURE YOU DO.

BUT EVEN THROUGH THOSE DARK MOMENTS, THOUGH,

I KNOW THE VERY BEST THING I CAN DO FOR MYSELF

IS TO TURN TOWARD THE POSSIBILITIES THAT EXIST NOW.

IT MAY NOT BE WHAT I PLANNED.

IT IS WHAT HAPPENED.

I GUESS THAT'S A GOOD WAY TO LOOK AT IT.

IT'S A HEAVY LIFT CALLING THE CHIEF OF DETECTIVES

TO RECOMMEND YOU FOR A COMMAND.

I'M NOT ASKING YOU TO DO THAT.

I'M NOT SAYING HE'D LISTEN,

AND I'M SURE AS HELL NOT GONNA MAKE THE CALL

UNLESS IT'S SOMETHING YOU WANT.

BUT I THINK YOU DO HAVE IT IN YOU TO BE A BOSS.

I THINK YOU'D BE THE RIGHT BOSS FOR THIS SQUAD TO HAVE.

I SHOULD PROBABLY GET SOME SLEEP.

[ SIGHS ]

TAKE CARE, LIEUTENANT.

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

I'M NOT TRUSTING THEM TO TELL ME WHAT GIVES.

WHAT GIVES IS THIS ?? WE FIND YOUR FRIEND YESENIN

BASED ON INFORMATION THAT YOU PROVIDE US WITH,

I RECOMMEND A SUSPENDED SENTENCE.

WE FIND HIM BASED ON ANYTHING ELSE,

CROSS YOUR FINGERS, HOPE FOR THE BEST.

I ALREADY PROVIDE.

YOU GAVE UP TWO ADDRESSES WHERE NO ONE WAS HOME.

IS MY FAULT?

NO. THE GUN AND THE STOLEN MERCHANDISE ARE YOUR FAULT.

YOU GOT TO HELP US FIND HIM.

I TAKE BIG RISK HERE!

IF YOU WEREN'T TAKING A RISK, WE WOULDN'T BE TALKING TO YOU.

EITHER YOU TELL US WHAT YOU KNOW OR STOP WASTING OUR TIME.

[ SIGHS ]

HE BRING GIRLS FROM RUSSIA.

IF HE'S HIDING, HE MIGHT GO CHECK UP ON THEM.

WHERE WOULD WE FIND THESE GIRLS?

HE DON'T TELL ME WHERE HIS GIRLS.

THAT'S NOT VERY MUCH HELP, IS IT?

I KNOW HE HAS DEAL WITH COVENTRY HOTEL,

WHERE HE SENDS GIRLS.

A DEAL WITH WHO?

HIS NAME MACKLIN. I MEET HIM BEFORE SERGEI.

I PUT THEM TOGETHER.

IS GOOD NOW?

WE'LL SEE.

WHICH ONE OF YOU IS IBRAHIM?

[ Egyptian accent ] ME. I'M IBRAHIM.

WE NEED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT FARAH.

WHAT ABOUT HER?

WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION HERE.

WHEN'S THE LAST TIME YOU SAW HER?

WHY?

THINK ABOUT IT.

I DON'T REMEMBER. WHY YOU ASKING ME?

SHE'S DEAD.

HOW CAN YOU THINK I KILL THIS WOMAN?

WE'RE TALKING TO EVERYONE WHO KNEW HER.

WHAT TIME DID YOU GET TO WORK? 6:30.

IS THERE ANYONE WHO CAN CONFIRM THAT?

IT WAS THE DRIVER FROM THE TIMES.

AND THERE WAS SAMI, WHO WORKS AT THE NEWSSTAND.

UNLESS YOU THINK BECAUSE HE'S ARAB, HE'D LIE.

WE DON'T THINK THAT.

DID YOU TRY TO PERSUADE FARAH NOT TO GET MARRIED?

YES.

SHE WENT THROUGH WITH IT.

SHE HONORED HER PARENTS. SHE DID WHAT THEY TOLD HER.

I WAS IN NO POSITION TO OFFER WHAT AMAR COULD,

SO I HAD TO ACCEPT THAT THIS IS THE WAY IT WAS GOING TO BE.

YOU WEREN'T HAPPY ABOUT IT.

NO, I WAS NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT.

BUT I UNDERSTAND THE DIFFICULTY OF HER POSITION,

SO I TRIED TO BE A FRIEND ONLY.

YOU CAME TO THE UNITED STATES TO BE FRIENDS WITH HER?

COME ON, IBRAHIM. THAT'S NOT EVEN VAGUELY CREDIBLE.

I CAME HERE TO WIN HER BACK.

WHEN I CAN'T DO THAT, I SATISFY MYSELF TO BE A FRIEND ONLY.

ALSO TO BETTER MYSELF IN THE WAY THAT OTHERS DO.

IS THAT WHAT THE PHONE CALLS AND THE VISITS WERE?

YES. SHE NEEDED A FRIEND.

FOR AMAR, HIS MOST TREASURED POSSESSION

WAS HIS TAXI MEDALLION.

FARAH WAS A DISTANT SECOND.

THAT MUST HAVE MADE IT FRUSTRATING FOR YOU,

TO LIVE WITH THE FACT THAT SHE WAS HIS.

MANY THINGS ARE FRUSTRATING.

YOU LEARN TO ACCEPT THEM AS GOD'S WILL

AND GO ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS.

IS THAT WHAT YOU DID? YES.

THINK WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANT TO BE LYING

ABOUT ACCEPTING GOD'S WILL.

NOT TO MENTION YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH A MURDER VICTIM.

THAT'S HOW PEOPLE BECOME SUSPECTS. THEY LIE.

[ Voice breaking ] OKAY.

IT HAPPEN.

WE DON'T PLAN ON IT,

BUT ONE DAY, SHE COME OVER AND WE HAVE RELATIONS.

WAS THAT THE ONLY TIME?

ALL MY LIFE.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SAW HER?

TWO DAYS AGO. SHE CALLED ME IN THE DAYTIME.

SHE WAS SAD.

SHE WAS LONELY.

SHE MISSED HER PARENTS...

HER BROTHER, HER SISTERS.

I WENT OVER THERE TO BE WHATEVER COMFORT I COULD.

WHAT DID THAT CONSIST OF?

DRINKING TEA AND TALKING. THAT'S ALL.

AMAR CAME HOME EARLY

AND DECIDED IT WAS SOMETHING ELSE ENTIRELY.

HE CURSED ME. HE MADE ACCUSATIONS ABOUT BOTH OF US.

SHE CALLED THE NEXT DAY IN TEARS

AND SAID IT KEPT UP THROUGH THE NIGHT.

IT'S AMAR WHO DID THIS. THERE IS NO DOUBT.

WE'LL BE TALKING TO HIM AGAIN.

WHEN IT COMES TIME TO MAKE BURIAL ARRANGEMENTS...

SHE SHOULD BE SENT BACK TO EGYPT, TO HER PARENTS.

THAT'S UP TO HER HUSBAND.

WHAT IF HER HUSBAND KILL HER?

I'M NOT SURE.

IF IT'S POSSIBLE, PLEASE,

COULD YOU TELL WHOEVER IS IN CHARGE OF THAT...

...THAT I WOULD LIKE TO PAY.

[ SOBS ]

MR. MACKLIN?

WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?

WE'RE LOOKING FOR SERGEI YESENIN.

IS HE A GUEST?

NO, HE'S THE PIMP YOU WORK WITH.

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

HOW LOUD DO YOU WANT THIS CONVERSATION TO GET?

COULD WE TALK OVER HERE?

ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE COME THROUGH HERE.

ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE DROP NAMES.

IF YOU TELL US YOU DON'T KNOW THIS GUY,

WE'RE GONNA TAKE YOU OUT IN CUFFS.

IS WORKING GIRLS GOING TO HOTEL ROOMS

SOMETHING WE'RE CRACKING DOWN ON?

IT'S ILLEGAL. WE CAN CRACK DOWN ON IT WHENEVER WE WANT.

OKAY, SORRY. NOBODY TOLD ME.

I'M THE GUY GUESTS ASK WHEN THEY WANT ONE,

SO I HAVE THE CONTACTS.

NOW I WON'T DO IT ANYMORE.

THE GIRLS SERGEI SENDS OVER, WHERE DOES HE KEEP THEM?

THAT, I WOULDN'T KNOW. ALL RIGHT, TURN AROUND.

WAIT. THEY COME HERE. I DON'T SEND PEOPLE THERE.

YOU NEVER GOT THROWN A FREE ONE? NEVER.

YOU'RE LYING. TURN AROUND.

I DON'T THINK YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ARREST ME ON.

THINK AGAIN. SERGEI SHOT A COP.

THAT MEANS WE CAN GO AS FAR AS WE WANT IN ANY DIRECTION.

AND IF YOU DON'T THINK WE'RE GONNA TIE YOU UP FOR A WHILE,

YOU'RE CRAZY, WHETHER OR NOT WE CAN MAKE IT STICK.

YOU KNOW, THIS GUY SCARES ME TO DEATH.

THE SOONER WE LOCK HIM UP, THE SOONER HE STOPS BEING A THREAT.

IS HE GONNA FIND OUT IT COMES FROM ME?

NOT FROM US.

THERE'S AN APARTMENT BUILDING ON YORK AVENUE

BETWEEN 68th AND 69th.

HE KEEPS AN APARTMENT THERE.

LARABIE'S THE NAME ON THE BUZZER.

DON'T GO CALLING OVER THERE TO WARN THEM.

WHAT, ARE YOU CRAZY?

I'M NOT GONNA PISS YOU GUYS OFF, BELIEVE ME.

[ Russian accent ] WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

SHUT YOUR MOUTH!

THIS IS LEGITIMATE BUSINESS.

POLICE!

COULD I SPEAK WITH YOU, PLEASE?

I HAVE A SPECIAL SITUATION.

GET HIM DRESSED. GET HIM OUT OF HERE.

COME ON.

THERE'S NO ONE ELSE HERE.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME? VARENKA.

VARENKA WHAT? BULGARIN.

VARENKA, WE'RE LOOKING FOR SERGEI.

I DON'T KNOW WHO THAT IS. YOU'RE TAKING A RIDE.

[ SPEAKING RUSSIAN ]

SHE HAS TO GO TO THE BATHROOM. TAKE HER.

NO, SHE NEEDS PRIVACY. IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

UH, OFFICER, MY WIFE'S COMING OUT OF SERIOUS DEPRESSION.

YOU THINK WE COULD SPARE HER FINDING OUT ABOUT THIS?

WE'RE NOT GONNA CALL YOUR WIFE.

AFTER HE GETS DRESSED, TAKE HIM DOWNSTAIRS.

THANK YOU. DON'T TOUCH ME.

HIM, YOU TREAT GOOD.

COME ON, NATASHA.

HOPE WE'RE NOT INTERRUPTING.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

THIS IS WHERE YOU COME TO PRAY?

THIS IS WHERE I COME MOST DAYS WHEN I'M WORKING.

I CAN'T GET TO THE MOSQUE UP ON 96th STREET.

I CAME TODAY TO FORGET IT'S NOT LIKE MOST DAYS.

WE SPOKE TO IBRAHIM.

DID HE ADMIT TO KILLING HER? NO.

YOU SAID THE LAST TIME YOU SAW HIM WAS A MONTH AGO.

SOMETHING LIKE THIS, YES.

IT WAS TWO DAYS AGO.

HE SAID YOU CAME HOME, FOUND HIM THERE, AND GOT PRETTY ANGRY.

YOU ACCUSED HIM AND YOUR WIFE OF HAVING AN AFFAIR.

IT'S TRUE.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO COME WITH US NOW, MR. AMAR.

WHY?

WE WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU ANYMORE.

I LOST MY WIFE TODAY.

PLEASE, GIVE ME CONSIDERATION TO ALLOW ME TO BE BY MYSELF.

SORRY.

[ Russian accent ] I COME FROM RUSSIA FOR MODELING.

NOW I STUDY FOR REAL?ESTATE LICENSE.

BUT YOU'RE WORKING FOR SERGEI.

I DON'T KNOW WHO THIS IS.

WHO DO YOU WORK FOR?

I DON'T WORK FOR ANYONE.

DO YOU HAVE AN AD IN THE PAPER?

NO, I DON'T HAVE AD.

YOU STAND AROUND HOTEL BARS? YOU STAND ON THE STREET CORNER?

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

WHERE DO THE MEN COME FROM WHO PAY TO HAVE SEX WITH YOU?

[ Voice breaking ] I DON'T KNOW.

SOMEONE TELL THEM TO CALL ME, AND THEY CALL.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY COME FROM.

ELENA, WITH ONE PHONE CALL, I CAN HAVE IMMIGRATION HERE,

AND YOU CAN FIND YOURSELF GETTING SENT BACK TO RUSSIA.

WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME?

'CAUSE YOU'RE LYING. I KNOW YOU'RE AFRAID OF SERGEI.

IF YOU TELL US WHERE WE CAN FIND HIM,

HE'LL NEVER KNOW IT CAME FROM YOU.

I DON'T KNOW WHO THIS IS.

[ Ukrainian accent ] I STUDY TO BE STOCKBROKER.

WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU SAW HIM, PANYA?

I DON'T KNOW WHO IT IS ?? SERGEI.

YEAH, YOU DO. BECAUSE I'M FROM UKRAINE?

NO, I THINK BECAUSE HE'S YOUR PIMP.

I DON'T KNOW WHO THIS IS.

YOU WERE ARRESTED FOR PROSTITUTION.

YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL, AND WHEN YOU COME OUT OF JAIL,

YOU'RE GONNA BE SHIPPED BACK TO THE UKRAINE.

I DON'T WANT.

THEN TELL ME WHERE I CAN FIND SERGEI.

I DON'T KNOW SERGEI.

WE'LL PROTECT YOU.

MY MOTHER AND MY BROTHER IN ODESSA,

YOU'LL PROTECT THEM, TOO?

I DON'T KNOW SERGEI.

SEE, THE GIRLS MIGHT GET OFF WITH A SLAP ON THE WRIST.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET OFF SO EASY.

YOU'RE GOING UP ON PANDERING CHARGES.

IF WE FIND OUT YOU HAD ANYTHING TO DO

WITH BRINGING THESE GIRLS INTO THE COUNTRY,

YOU MIGHT BE LOOKING AT UNLAWFUL IMPRISONMENT,

SMUGGLING, FEDERAL RACKETEERING, ALL KINDS OF THINGS.

I AM SUCH BIG FISH LIKE THIS,

MAYBE THEY BUILD ME MY OWN PRISON.

NO, THEY GOT THE PRISON ALREADY.

YOU DON'T SCARE ME, OKAY?

WHICH MAKES YOU MORE STUPID THAN BRAVE,

BECAUSE THIS GUY YOU'RE PROTECTING SHOT A COP.

THAT MEANS IF YOU HELP US FIND HIM, YOU CAN WALK OUT.

I DON'T HELP YOU DO NOTHING.

THOUGHT YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET AN UPDATE

ON WHERE WE ARE WITH THE LIEUTENANT'S SHOOTING.

SURE. COME ON IN.

I'M JUST TRYING TO GET THIS THING TO WORK.

GIVE ME THE BAROMETRIC PRESSURE, TEMPERATURE, AND DEW POINT,

AND IF I KNEW HOW TO SET THE DARN THING,

IT'D GIVE ME THE PHASES OF THE MOON.

TURNS OUT THE SHOOTER DOES A BRISK BUSINESS

IN THE PIMP TRADE.

WE TOOK IN A FEW OF HIS GIRLS.

THIS IS A RUSSIAN? YEAH.

YOU KNOW VINNIE GRECO OVER AT THE FIRST DEP'S OFFICE?

NO.

I KNEW HIM OUT AT THE 111. HE OWNED A RUSSIAN CAR.

WE'RE PROBABLY GONNA HAVE TO SIT ON THIS APARTMENT

AND HIS SISTER'S PLACE IN REGO PARK.

CALLED A ZIL.

WHAT IS?

THEY MAKE A CAR CALLED THE ZIL. THAT'S THE CAR VINNIE BOUGHT.

ANYWAY, YOU WERE SAYING?

UH, JUST THAT THERE MIGHT BE SOME OVERTIME INVOLVED.

AS LONG AS YOU GOT THE PAPERWORK TO BACK IT UP.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A COP GETTING SHOT, RIGHT?

KNOCK YOURSELF OUT.

YOU WERE LOOKING FOR ME?

YEAH, COULD YOU SEE IF WE HAVE ANY DOUBLE?A BATTERIES?

SURE. BRUCE, RIGHT?

JOHN.

JOHN. SORRY.

I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED.

THAT SOUNDS GOOD.

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO ABOUT THE 61s?

I HAVE A FEELING

OUR NEW LIEUTENANT DOESN'T WANT TO BE BOTHERED WITH THEM.

JUST LEAVE THEM WITH ME.

WHAT'S WRONG?

EVERYTHING'S GREAT.

YOU SEEM UPSET.

I GUESS I JUST DON'T SEE THIS PLACE AS ONE BIG LEGO SET

WHERE PEOPLE ARE INTERCHANGEABLE.

JOHN, PEOPLE MOVE AROUND, PEOPLE RETIRE.

IT'S NOT ALL THAT UNUSUAL, WHAT'S HAPPENING.

I KNOW.

I ALWAYS MAKE THE MISTAKE OF GETTING OVERLY ATTACHED.

BELIEVE ME, IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME.

THERE'LL BE SOME NEW FACES. YOU MIGHT LEARN TO LIKE THEM.

SEEING YOU GO...

SEEING DETECTIVE MEDAVOY GO...

HAVING THIS NEW LIEUTENANT ??

WHO, I HAVE TO SAY, I DO NOT CARE FOR ?? IS TOO HARD.

I KNOW PEOPLE MOVE AROUND. I KNOW PEOPLE RETIRE.

THERE'S JUST SOMETHING ABOUT THISPLACE AND THESE PEOPLE.

OR MAYBE IT'S...

THE PARTICULAR TIME IN MY LIFE WHEN I WAS HERE.

WHATEVER IT IS, I DON'T WANT TO SIT AT THAT DESK OUT THERE

IF IT'S ALL GONNA BE DIFFERENT.

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?

PUT IN FOR A TRANSFER.

CROSS MY FINGERS

THERE'S ANOTHER PRECINCT WHERE I'LL BE MADE TO FEEL

AS MUCH A PART OF THINGS AS I WAS HERE.

AND HOPE I DON'T GET TOO WEEPY THINKING ABOUT IT.

HOW COME YOU COULDN'T MEET A GIRL HERE IN NEW YORK?

I WANTED A MUSLIM GIRL.

THERE'S MUSLIM GIRLS HERE.

IT'S NOT YOUR BUSINESS WHY I DO THIS.

UNFORTUNATELY, IT IS OUR BUSINESS, MR. AMAR.

WE'RE DETECTIVES INVESTIGATING YOUR WIFE'S MURDER.

I WANTED A WOMAN WHO FOLLOW KORAN TEACHINGS.

SUCH AS WHAT?

THAT SHE BE CLEAN, THAT SHE WEAR HIJAB,

THAT SHE NOT GIVE HERSELF TO ANYONE BUT HER HUSBAND.

AND YOU PAID A LOT OF MONEY TO HAVE THAT, DIDN'T YOU?

I DON'T THINK ABOUT THE MONEY.

THE FLAG HAD TO DROP ON THAT METER A LOT OF TIMES

FOR YOU TO MAKE ENOUGH MONEY TO BRING HER OVER HERE.

DID YOU FEEL LIKE YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN GYPPED?

SHE WASN'T WHO YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GETTING.

SHE WANTED FRIENDS OF HER OWN. SHE MISSED HER PARENTS.

MAYBE SHE WANTED TO LEAVE THE APARTMENT WITHOUT THE HIJAB.

SHE NEVER GO OUT WITHOUT HER HIJAB.

MAYBE SHE DIDN'T WANT CHILDREN.

MAYBE SHE WOULDN'T HAVE SEX WITH YOU.

AND MAYBE YOU FOUND OUT SHE'D GIVEN HERSELF TO ANOTHER.

YOU THINK ALL WOMEN ARE LIKE YOU ??

UNABLE TO RESIST TEMPTATION, UNABLE TO REMAIN CLEAN,

EVEN IF THE WORLD AROUND THEM IS UNCLEAN?

SHE WAS UNCLEAN HERSELF ?? IN YOUR MIND, AT LEAST.

SHE HAD GIVEN HERSELF TO ANOTHER.

AS BAD AS SHE MIGHT HAVE FELT, THERE WAS NO UNDOING THAT.

MAYBE SHE DIDN'T FEEL BAD ENOUGH.

MAYBE SHE DIDN'T FEEL BAD AT ALL.

I DON'T SAY ANYTHING ELSE TO YOU.

I DON'T TALK TO YOU ANYMORE.

HEY, WHAT'S THIS?

LUM'S SENT OVER FOOD IN HONOR OF GREG'S RETIREMENT.

WOW.

DID YOU FINISH THE KUNG PAO?

THERE'S A WHOLE OTHER THING OF IT OVER THERE.

BRIGID COMING, GREG?

Greg: SHE WOULDN'T MISS IT FOR ALL THE RICE IN CHINA.

I BET SHE'S EXCITED.

YEAH.

Clark: ALL RIGHT.

OKAY, THANKS.

THAT WAS B.C.I.

VARENKA'S PRINTS IN THERE JUST CAME BACK.

HER REAL NAME'S DASHA.

HER MARRIED NAME IS KASANOV, AND HER MAIDEN NAME'S YESENIN.

SHE'S SERGEI'S SISTER.

LET'S GO TALK TO HER AGAIN.

"YOU WILL BE TRAVELING AND COMING INTO A FORTUNE."

THANKS, CAROLYN.

YOU GOT IT.

STEP OUTSIDE, DASHA.

WHAT IS THIS "DASHA"?

YOUR PRINTS CAME BACK.

WE KNOW YOU'RE SERGEI'S SISTER, SO YOU CAN DROP THE ACT.

I THINK I STAY HERE.

WE UNDERSTAND YOU'RE NOT GONNA

GIVE YOUR BROTHER UP TO SAVE YOURSELF,

SO LET'S TRY ANOTHER REASON.

US GOING TO PICK HIM UP IS HIS BEST SHOT AT COMING OUT ALIVE.

BECAUSE YOU CARE SO MUCH FOR HIS WELFARE?

YOU MAY FIND THIS HARD TO BELIEVE, BUT I ACTUALLY PREFER

NOTKILLING SOMEONE I'M GOING TO ARREST.

I DO FIND HARD TO BELIEVE.

THERE'S COPS ALL OVER THE CITY LOOKING FOR HIM.

HE'S NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO STAY HIDDEN FOREVER.

THE SAME THING'S GONNA HAPPEN THAT HAPPENED LAST TIME.

HE'S GONNA COME OUT, GUNS BLAZING,

AND NOW THEY'RE GONNA BE READY FOR HIM.

HE'S AS GOOD AS DEAD.

WHAT WILL YOU DO DIFFERENT?

HOPEFULLY, WE'LL BE ABLE TO

TALK HIM INTO SURRENDERING PEACEFULLY.

THERE'S NO GUARANTEE HE'LL DO IT.

WHAT IS A GUARANTEE

IS WE'RE GONNA DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO AVOID HURTING HIM.

THAT IS NOT THE CASE WITH EVERY COP IN THE CITY.

BUT WE NEED YOUR COOPERATION.

WHY SHOULD I TRUST YOU?

BECAUSE WE'RE TELLING YOU YOU CAN.

WE'RE NOT GONNA GET OURSELVES KILLED.

WE'RE NOT GONNA GET INNOCENT BYSTANDERS KILLED.

BUT UNLESS YOUR BROTHER LEAVES US ABSOLUTELY NO CHOICE,

WE'RE GONNA BRING HIM IN UNHARMED.

YOU HAVE MY WORD.

HOLD IT, SERGEI!

HE'S COMING!

HOLD IT, HOLD IT! HOLD YOUR FIRE!

WATCH IT!

[ SIREN WAILS ]

TAKE IT EASY, SERGEI! TAKE IT EASY!

NOW, THERE'S FIVE COPS OUT HERE.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET AWAY. THROW YOUR GUN OUT.

[ Russian accent ] SO YOU CAN KILL ME?

NOBODY'S LOOKING TO KILL YOU.

WE TALKED TO YOUR SISTER.

SHE CALLED YOU BECAUSE, MORE THAN ANYTHING,

SHE WANTS YOU TO GET OUT OF THIS ALIVE.

EVEN IF IT'S IN PRISON, SHE WANTS TO VISIT YOU,

WRITE TO YOU,

LOOK FORWARD TO THE DAY WHEN YOU GET OUT.

I GAVE HER MY WORD THAT I WOULD TRY TO TAKE YOU ALIVE.

DON'T MAKE HER HAVE TO IDENTIFY YOUR BODY.

NOW, BACK OFF.

BACK OFF.

COME ON, GET OUT.

GET THE GUN.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

HEY.

YOU WANT TO HEAR THE TRANSLATION

OF THE LAST ENTRY AMAR'S WIFE MADE IN HER JOURNAL?

"GOD, PLEASE BE OF COMFORT TO THE PEOPLE I'M LEAVING BEHIND ??

"TO MY PARENTS, TO MY SISTER AND BROTHERS,

"TO MY HUSBAND, ADEEB.

"IT IS ALTOGETHER UNFITTING

"THAT YOU SHOWER LOVE AND AFFECTION ON ONE SUCH AS MYSELF,

"ONE INCAPABLE OF APPRECIATING IT.

"PEOPLE HAVE TRIED TO MAKE A PLACE FOR ME,

"BUT THERE IS NO PLACE.

"HERE IN THIS WORLD, THERE IS NO PLACE.

GOD BLESS ME AND FORGIVE ME."

WHAT DOES THE M.E. SAY ABOUT THE WOUNDS?

NOT INCONSISTENT WITH BEING SELF?INFLICTED.

I GUESS WE NEED TO TALK TO HER HUSBAND.

YEAH.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

WE JUST GOT YOUR WIFE'S JOURNAL

BACK FROM THE POLICE DEPARTMENT TRANSLATOR.

UM...YOU MIGHT WANT TO READ HER LAST ENTRY.

WE'RE SORRY.

CHARGE ME.

YOU DIDN'T KILL HER.

YES!

I KILL HER.

I BRING HER HERE.

I DON'T PROVIDE FOR HER A GOOD LIFE.

I DON'T TAKE AWAY HER SADNESS.

[ SOBS ] I'M RESPONSIBLE.

DO YOU WANT TO CALL SOMEONE TO COME MEET YOU HERE?

OR WE COULD TAKE YOU HOME, IF YOU LIKE.

THE HADITH IS THE WORD OF THE PROPHET.

IT SAYS IN HADITH, IF SOMEONE TAKES THEIR LIFE

BY STABBING THEMSELF WITH A PIECE OF IRON,

THEY WILL BE STABBING THEMSELVES...

FOREVER IN HELLFIRE.

[ SOBS ]

THIS IS WHY CHARGE ME ??

FOR HER PARENTS, AT LEAST, NOT TO KNOW.

WE CAN'T CHARGE YOU WITH A CRIME YOU DIDN'T COMMIT.

FOR HER PARENTS.

I DON'T KNOW.

WANT TO SIT WITH THEM FOR A WHILE?

I DIDN'T GET A GOOD ENOUGH LOOK AT HIM.

I CAN'T BE SURE WHICH ONE OF THESE IS HIM.

SO... COME TO ANY DECISIONS?

ABOUT THE SQUAD COMMAND, YOU MEAN?

YEAH. DO YOU WANT ME TO MAKE THE PHONE CALL?

I GUESS THE THEORY IS,

SOMEONE FROM WITHIN A COMMAND

REDUCES THE TRANSITION PERIOD.

IS THAT A YES?

IF YOU WERE TO MAKE THE CALL AND THINGS PLAYED OUT,

WHICH I UNDERSTAND IS A LONG SHOT...

...I GUESS I COULD SEE MYSELF MOVING INTO THAT POSITION.

POSITION OF SQUAD COMMANDER?

RIGHT.

DOES THAT MEAN YOU WANT ME TO MAKE THE CALL?

I ONLY WANT YOU TO DO IT IF YOU'RE COMFORTABLE DOING IT.

YES OR NO?

YEAH.

WHAT DID THE LIEUTENANT SAY?

HE COULDN'T MAKE A POSITIVE I. D.

WE DON'T HAVE TO TELL THAT TO SERGEI.

DID YOU TALK TO HIM YET?

WE WERE WAITING FOR YOU.

WHY DON'T YOU GUYS DO IT.

YOU'RE WORKING THE CASE.

IT'S YOUR CASE. I'M JUST HELPING OUT.

UH, YOU GOT A SECOND?

THE HOMICIDE WE'RE WORKING TURNS OUT TO BE A SUICIDE.

IT'S A MAJOR SIN TO KILL YOURSELF IF YOU'RE MUSLIM.

THE HUSBAND IS SO UPSET ABOUT THE FAMILY FINDING OUT,

HE'S ASKING US TO MAKE IT A HOMICIDE AND CHARGE HIM.

THERE ANY WAY WE CAN AVOID PUTTING IT ON PAPER

THAT IT WAS SUICIDE?

[ SIGHS ]

LEAVE IT OPEN FOR A MONTH AS A HOMICIDE.

THEN RECLASSIFY IT AS A SUICIDE AND CLOSE IT OUT.

BY THAT TIME, NO ONE WILL BE LOOKING TO SEE WHAT IT IS.

WE CAN AT LEAST TELL HIM HER PARENTS WON'T FIND OUT.

YOU JUST GOT TO RUN IT BY THE BOSS.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

LIEU?

WE GOT A SITUATION

WHERE THIS EGYPTIAN GIRL CAME BACK AS A SUICIDE.

BECAUSE OF CULTURAL CONSIDERATIONS,

IT'D BE GOOD TO MAYBE KEEP THAT OUT OF THE OFFICIAL RECORD.

WHAT EGYPTIAN GIRL?

THE CASE WE CAUGHT THIS MORNING.

THE HUSBAND SENT FOR HER IN AN ARRANGED MARRIAGE.

SHE'D BEEN ENGAGED TO SOMEONE ELSE,

WHO WOUND UP FOLLOWING HER OVER HERE.

THEY WOUND UP HAVING AN AFFAIR. THE HUSBAND FOUND OUT.

WHETHER BECAUSE OF GUILT OR DEPRESSION

OR SOME COMBINATION OF THE TWO, SHE KILLED HERSELF.

THAT'S ?? THAT'S A LOT OF DETAIL, NOW.

YEAH, IT'S JUST THAT WE FEEL CONFIDENT IT'S A SUICIDE

BECAUSE THERE'S A JOURNAL ENTRY IN THE GIRL'S HANDWRITING

THAT INTELLIGENCE JUST TRANSLATED AS A SUICIDE NOTE.

THE M. E.'s OFFICE SAID THE KNIFE WOUNDS

COULD BE SELF?INFLICTED.

DO YOU HAVE THIS COVERED?

YEAH.

THEN THAT'S ALL I NEED. I'M A BIG?PICTURE GUY.

I DON'T NEED THE WHO, WHAT, WHY, AND HOW.

IF YOU SAY IT'S COVERED, IT'S COVERED.

THAT'S HOW I OPERATE.

ALL RIGHT.

YOU UNDERSTAND, WE DON'T NEED YOU TO SAY ANYTHING.

THE LIEUTENANT PICKED YOU OUT FROM PHOTOGRAPHS,

AND THE D. A. HAS EVERYTHING THEY NEED TO GO TO TRIAL.

[ SCOFFS ]

SUIT YOURSELF.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN, PICK ME OUT?

HE LOOKED AT YOUR PICTURE

AND SAID, "THAT'S THE MAN WHO SHOT ME."

IT WAS A MISTAKE.

HE WAS 5 FEET AWAY. YOU THINK HE DOESN'T RECOGNIZE YOU?

WE KNOW WHAT IT WAS LIKE 'CAUSE WE WERE THERE.

A LOT OF YELLING, LOT OF GUNS ?? PRETTY CHAOTIC.

YOU MIGHT HAVE SQUEEZED OFF A ROUND WITHOUT EVEN MEANING TO.

IF THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED, YOU GOT TO SAY IT.

LET'S GO.

WHAT IF I DON'T KNOW HE IS POLICE?

WHO DID YOU THINK HE WAS?

I HAVE ALL KINDS ENEMIES IN THIS COUNTRY.

OKAY.

SO YOU OPEN A DOOR, YOU SEE A GUY WITH A GUN,

YOU FIGURE HE'S ONE OF THEM?

WHY NOT?

THAT'S WHY YOU SHOT HIM?

100%.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO WRITE DOWN THAT YOU SHOT HIM.

SELF?DEFENSE, YES?

YOU COULD CALL IT THAT.

WHEN I CAN SEE MY SISTER?

AS SOON AS YOU FINISH YOUR STATEMENT.

WOULD ANYBODY NOTICE IF WE SNUCK OUT NOW?

[ CHUCKLES ] MEDAVOY MIGHT.

OH, MEDAVOY WOULD DEFINITELY NOTICE.

WE DON'T HAVE TO BE THE LAST TO LEAVE, THOUGH.

PROMISE?

I PROMISE.

ANYBODY HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY?

YEAH, I COULD USE A FEW TOASTS.

UH, TO MY PARTNER...

TO MY FRIEND.

AND, GREG, I KNOW YOU MAY NOT THINK SO,

BUT MOST OF WHAT I LEARNED ABOUT BEING A DETECTIVE,

I LEARNED FROM YOU.

AND I'M GONNA MISS BEING IN THAT CAR WITH YOU.

I'M GONNA MISS YOU DUMPING ALL THE PAPERWORK OFF ON ME.

I'M EVEN GONNA MISS WAITING FOR YOU TO ORDER IN RESTAURANTS.

I'M GONNA MISS IT ALL, BUDDY.

ME TOO.

CHEERS.CHEERS. CHEERS.

CHEERS.

UH...

AS I LOOK AROUND THIS TABLE...

I REALIZE THAT, UH...

YOU PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MY CO?WORKERS,

MY FRIENDS.

[ SIGHS ] THAT'S BIG.

AS LONG AS I LIVE,

I'LL NEVER STOP BEING GRATEFUL FOR HAVING WORKED WITH YOU.

HERE'S TO YOU GUYS,

AND HERE'S TO THE GUY WHO INVENTED THIS JOB.

HERE'S TO YOU, GREG.

HERE'S TO YOU, BUDDY.

GOD BLESS, GREG.

[ CHUCKLES ]

CONGRATULATIONS, DETECTIVE.

UH, THANKS, CHIEF. [ CHUCKLES ]

UH, BRIGID SCOFIELD, THIS IS CHIEF DUFFY ??

CHIEF OF DETECTIVES.

HOW DO YOU DO?

VERY NICE TO MEET YOU.

COULD YOU EXCUSE ME?

TALK TO YOU FOR A SECOND?

SURE.

[ SIGHS ]

I DON'T KNOW WHETHER TO CHALK IT UP

TO LIEUTENANT BALE BEING ON PAIN MEDICATION,

BUT I GOT A CALL FROM HIM

RECOMMENDING YOU TAKE OVER THE SQUAD.

YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT?

YEAH, CHIEF. I ASKED HIM TO MAKE THE CALL.

YOU ASKED HIM?

HE OFFERED, BUT THEN I TOOK HIM UP ON HIS OFFER.

SO YOU'RE SERIOUS ABOUT THIS? YEAH.

YOU REALIZE I GOT A DOZEN BOSSES AHEAD OF YOU,

ALL WAITING TO TAKE OVER THE SQUAD?

DON'T GET ME WRONG, ANDY. YOU'RE A GREAT DETECTIVE.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU'RE READY TO BE A C. O.

I GUESS THAT'S AN EVALUATION YOU'LL MAKE FOR YOURSELF, SIR.

OKAY.

IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.

NOT NOW. YOU'VE BEEN A SERGEANT FOR 10 MINUTES.

YOU'RE BASICALLY UNSUPERVISABLE.

I DON'T GET IT. WHAT THE HELL WAS BALE THINKING?

MAYBE HE THOUGHT I'D MAKE A DECENT BOSS.

I'D MAKE A DECENT HEAD COACH FOR THE GIANTS.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M THE MAN FOR THE JOB.

I GOT TIME IN THE BUREAU.

EVERY BOSS ON THE LIST HAS TIME IN THE BUREAU.

I KNOW THE SQUAD.

WHICH COULD BE A DETRIMENT TO YOUR COMMAND.

[ SIGHS, CLEARS THROAT ]

THIS SQUAD HAS BEEN THROUGH A BUNCH OF COMMAND CHANGES

OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS.

EVERY TIME, THEY GOT TO GET ADJUSTED TO A NEW BOSS

WITH A NEW MANAGEMENT PHILOSOPHY.

THEY CAN DO IT. THEY HAVE DONE IT.

BUT IT TAKES SOMETHING OUT OF THEM.

INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ON WORKING THEIR CASES,

THEY'RE THINKING ABOUT WHERE THEY STAND WITH THE NEW GUY ??

WHETHER HE'LL HURT THEM OR NOT.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LEAVE?

THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

WHO SAYS? I DO.

COMMANDING THIS SQUAD, TEACHING THEM,

KEEPING THEM OUT OF HARM'S WAY, THAT'S MY LAST JOB.

I DON'T WANT TO GO ANYWHERE FROM THERE.

I'M NOT LOOKING FOR ANY MORE PROMOTIONS.

THERE'D BE NOTHING ELSE I'D EVER WANT TO DO.

[ SIGHS ]

ANYWAY, THERE'S MORE QUALIFIED CANDIDATES.

SO BE IT.

YOU WANT THIS JOB?

YES, SIR.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

THEY WANT YOU ON THE DAIS, CHIEF.

I'LL BE RIGHT UP.

[ SIGHS ]

OKAY. IT'S YOURS.

DON'T MAKE ME REGRET THIS.

[ UTENSILS CLINKING ON GLASSWARE ]

I'D LIKE TO THANK EVERYONE FOR COMING.

THIS IS ONE OF THOSE OCCASIONS THAT'S HAPPY AND SAD BOTH.

HAPPY ON ACCOUNT OF WE'RE CELEBRATING THE CAREERS

OF DETECTIVES TOMMY DOYLE FROM QUEENS HOMICIDE,

RICK TIRELLI FROM THE BARRIER SECTION,

AND GREG MEDAVOY, 15th SQUAD.

WE WISH THEM WELL AS THEY EMBARK ON NEW ENDEAVORS,

ENJOY THEIR RETIREMENT, AND SO FORTH.

AT THE SAME TIME,

WE'RE SAD 'CAUSE WE'RE LOSING THE DISTINGUISHED SERVICE

THESE THREE MEN PROVIDED ALL THESE MANY YEARS.

AS YOUR CHIEF, I SALUTE YOU.
