Always the way, isn't it?

You're at your desk all Morning, doing your job.

The one minute you take to Goof off, and the boss walks in.

There's nothing wrong with Taking a break once in a while.

It's just I can't help feeling

I'm up here on sort Of consignment.

One mistake, and I'm Shipped back downstairs.

What an unexpected pleasure.

Oh, go on. They're The best kind.

Oh, you know my Friend darryl driscoll?

Sure. Mr. Driscoll.

Hello, sergeant.

Is captain miller available?

I'll see if I can, Um, scare him up.

Thank you.

Don't worry. It'll be just fine.

Hello, sergeant wojciehowicz.

Yeah. Hi. How you doing?

You're looking good.

Um... Thanks.

You, uh, you look good yourself.

Can I get in on this?

Excuse me.

Ah, driscoll, marty. Been a long time.

Oh, too long.

My, you've certainly done some Lovely things with this room.

Could we stop perpetuating The stereotype for a moment

And get on with this?

He's been under such a strain.

Okay.

Barn, call from Dispatch. We got a jumper.

I'll break his fall.

Some guy's on top of The washington arch.

The washington arch? Um... All right, harris.

Hey, captain, this Is quite urgent.

We can talk in my office.

Come on, harris... You and me.

Oh, just a second.

Barn?

Barney, I'm expecting this Really important phone call.

Could dietrich maybe...

Harris, there's a Jumper out there.

Oh! Sure.

That's all I need is a jumper.

Maybe it's your broker.

As you can see,

It grants me visitation Rights every other weekend

Plus a full month with Jason every summer.

Second paragraph.

Thank you, marty.

Appears to be in order.

Well, I wish someone would Tell that to my ex-wife.

I take it she's not In compliance?

She won't even let Me talk to jason,

Much less have a day with him.

Who died and made her queen?

I was able to see him on a Regular basis until recently.

Then suddenly She just cut me off.

I'm still unclear what it Is exactly you want of me.

Well, jason starts his Winter vacation tomorrow.

He goes to wykoff academy Over on lafayette street.

Are you familiar with it?

I'm afraid not.

You know it. They all Wear those cute blazers.

Well, I'm supposed to Get him for the two weeks.

Now eleanor says He has to go with her

To visit his grandparents.

She's taking him to detroit.

I mean, talk about child abuse.

I want that enforced before She packs him off to motown.

I'm afraid this is not Really in our jurisdiction.

Custodial disputes are a Matter for family court.

Well, this is a fine How-do-you-do.

Try to understand. Jason is my only son.

Mr. Driscoll, I'm...

Captain, my chances of having Another are incredibly slim.

Nil, in fact.

Yeah?

To answer your question, We're gonna be reorganizing

And updating both the Detective and precinct files,

Weeding out obsolete And duplicate records,

Cross-referencing By crime and criminal,

Interfacing and coding All pertinent information.

I was thinking of doing that.

Any questions?

You putting on weight?

Here!

So I go back to court,

Get another order, She ignores it,

I go back to court again?

I'm afraid that's the system.

Morning, captain.

Zatelli.

Oh, hi, there.

Hey, how you doing?

You work here?

Yeah, that's right.

Excuse me. I'll be right back.

Captain, thank You for your help.

Look, I'm sure You'll be able to...

Martin, we're going.

Inside, space cadet.

Sergeant, I had no intention Of jumping, you know.

Yeah, I know.

The only reason I was up there

Was that my Coordinates were off.

That's not such a bad outfit.

Marty.

Certainly nothing To kill yourself over.

Is this our jumper?

Not getting off that easy.

This is adam boyer. This is captain miller.

- hello. - mr. Boyer.

He was just sitting on top Of the washington arch.

Well, I hadn't planned On materializing

At that particular location.

Materializing?

Better tell him Where you're from.

Denver.

Um... What year?

Yeah, that's 2037 a.D.

How are the broncos doing?

They moved, huh?

He's a time traveler.

Well, that's just Part of my job.

I'm a cultural historian At columbia university.

I specialize in The latter 1900s.

I just came back to Gather some additional data

On the prevailing Social attitudes, mores...

You know, this type of thing.

You realize we don't Believe a word you're saying.

Of course. That's Why I can tell you.

Mr. Boyer, we're gonna need

Some, uh, additional Data on you.

Fine, fine.

I have some questions for You, too, if you don't mind.

Harris?

Could you take a Statement from mr. Boyer?

Oh, sure, barney.

Mr. Boyer,

Take a seat right Over here, please.

Groovy.

Oh, did that come back?

Actually, if you think about it,

None of us know the future,

So we can't say for sure

That some day, somehow,

The technology of time Travel might not be developed,

And then someone like mr. Boyer

Could be able to Travel back into our time.

That's true.

You know, there's just No talking to you anymore.

You know, this is all Very fascinating to me.

Tell me, this...

Is this real wood?

What's your date of birth?

October 13, 1993.

The postwar baby boom.

Yeah.

The mail, sir.

Thank you, zatelli.

You're welcome. Anything else, sir?

Not from me.

Hey, you know that Guy this morning?

I just seen him around.

You probably know Him better than I do.

Zatelli, don't you Think it would be wiser

If it came from you voluntarily

Instead of as a result

Of some stupid chance Meeting like this morning?

This morning? That was a fluke.

You can't keep It up indefinitely.

Why not? Nobody here knows.

I do.

Hey, I trust you.

Zatelli, that's very flattering,

But I can't guarantee That one of these days

In casual conversation,

Unwittingly, I May say something.

Like what?

Like "Zatelli's gay."

That'll do it, sir.

You can use the phone here If you want to call a lawyer.

Lawyer?

Oh, I'd forgotten. You still have them.

Hmm?

They were outlawed in '98.

No kidding?

Yes, yes.

All legal matters are Handled by realtors.

12th precinct. Sergeant harris.

Oh, yeah. Hey, man, look.

I've been trying to get In touch with you all day.

No. Unh-unh. Look. Forget about blue chips.

I've decided to go Heavy into gold.

Hmm...

Uh, yeah, I'm leaning Toward bullion.

You know, no coinage fees.

Hey, look, I'll get back To you in a minute, okay?

Something I should know?

Well, medicine hat in canada,

They struck gold in '81, I think it was, yeah.

Tons of it came out.

Price plummeted back Down to $35 an ounce.

Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho!

For a second, I almost Forgot you're crazy!

Okay.

Yeah.

How you doing?

Hey.

We just got a call from The wykoff academy.

Yeah?

That guy, mr. Driscoll.

Yes?

He tried to snatch his Son from the playground.

Oh, lovely.

What's he doing with a kid?

I'm not criticizing, barn.

I'm just surprised.

He's a fruit.

I'll take dietrich.

Yeah. Fine.

See? No problem.

And so, ron, you see,

With the price of gold Virtually worthless,

The world economy Simply collapsed.

That's nice.

It wasn't until '84

That gold is replaced As the world's standard

By another commodity.

Which was?

Zinc.

Zinc?

Get in there.

Zinc!

Yes, harris?

Barney, we have a seriously Deranged person out there.

I hope you're Referring to mr. Boyer.

Oh, barn, the man Talks gibberish.

Run a check on him?

I tried.

And?

Well, no record of him.

Name didn't check out. Prints don't check out.

He probably phonied up the I.D.

Must have.

Anyway, I've put in A call to bellevue.

Bellevue?

Yeah, something the matter?

No, no, no, no.

I never heard you Refer to it that way.

Usually you use a More colorful term,

Like "The enchanted kingdom,"

"Fantasy island."

Have you ever heard Of medicine hat?

Medicine hat?

I don't get it.

Just get inside, marty.

I know the way.

I have a right to See my son, sergeant.

Who's arguing with you?

You gentlemen look familiar.

Déjà vu.

They walked in,

Snatched him off The basketball court.

The gym teacher stopped them.

She didn't have to be so rough.

That was a stupid thing to do.

Captain, since no one Here would lift a finger

To get my son, what Other option did I have?

Well...

Now, why didn't I think of that?

I called mrs. Driscoll at work.

She's coming down To press charges.

Do we have to Drag her into this?

All right. We're gonna Have to book you.

Fine.

Marty, I believe you Know the procedure.

They never let you Forget, do they?

You're the same one who Booked me that last time,

- right, sergeant? - mm-hmm.

I enjoyed it very much.

Was it good for you?

Well, look,

I was thinking of holding Off on gold for the time being.

No. No stocks.

No. No treasury bonds, either.

Um... I was thinking of zinc.

Yeah, zinc.

What's it going for these days?

37 1/2 cents... A pound?

Uh... Yeah, well, look,

I might be willing to, you know, Spring for a couple of tons.

What the hell were you doing?

You have pulled Some stupid stunts,

But I don't believe this one.

Yes?

You had a wife and a kid... You know, a nice family.

It just seems like So much to give up

For something that might Just turn out to be a... A fad.

We're not talking about The hula-hoop, sergeant.

Maybe you just didn't give

Heterosexuality a fair shake.

I mean, if you'd just hung In there a little longer,

Applied yourself, you Might have got the hang of it.

Look, I had the hang of it.

The point is, I was just Going through the motions.

Was resolved in The years to come.

What with the overpopulation And dwindling resources,

Homosexuality was accepted

And even encouraged As a mode of behavior.

You're gonna have to make Your mind up on this thing.

Well, if he could Just change his ways.
