[Man]
Down here in paradise,

the wind can be
soft and sweet

and sometimes wicked.

It giveth,
and it taketh away.

There should be a billboard
on the state line

that says,
"Begin removing your clothes

and your inhibitions now."

It's like a third world country
full of many languages.

Everything and everybody

runs down here to paradise.

Down here, because you see,

we are at the bottom
of the nation.

It's a land
of beautiful people.

Also retirees and mermaids
and fugitives and tourists,

crazies, criminals,

and of course...cops.

[Man, singsong]
One and two
and step on a crack,

and break
your mother's back.

Charlie, what the hell
are you doing?

The trouble with you
is you was never a kid.

The trouble with you is you're
a hundred pounds overweight.

And your 70-year-old carc-ass

is going to go
right through the ceiling.

In the first place, I'm 59.

And I am full figured.

And you're cranky.

I'm not cranky.

We've been up all night
watching paint dry.

Well, the fresh white wall

is how we lure the wolf
into our trap.

I can't believe that
I'm on graffiti patrol.

You think it's easy
to get on graffiti patrol?

If I hadn't pulled a string,

we'd still be
playing cops and robbers.

Show some appreciation.

And would you take
a look at this, would you?

The Wolf is the Picasso
of the streets.

Did you know that the airbrush

has taken the place
of the paintbrush?

I don't care.

Well, once you learn
that it's not graffiti,

you'll appreciate it as art.

Wolf.
That's his tag.

Yip.

This wall
is like cheese to a rat.

Ha ha ha!

[phone rings]

[ring]

¿Qué?

¿Qué?

[speaking Spanish]

[man whining]

[Man]
Shut up.

[second man]
Shut up.

Hey, just nervous.
It's okay.

How about a little
show and tell action?

[speaking Spanish]

How about show some of
the stuff that he got?
What do you think, huh?

I just want to see some stuff.

Here's some stuff,
okay?

That's what I want to see.
That's what I'm talking--

How about some right now?
Can we do some right now?

No, first we do the do.

Oh, we're gonna do
the do, huh?

Glad I ain't
carrying this bag.

A man could get ideas,
huh?

The idea is not to get ideas.

I was just
thinking out loud, Mister.

So am I.

[Women speaking
in Spanish]

This-- That book's
the keys to the kingdom.

All that graphs
and science stuff.

It's not how much you eat,

it's what food
you put together.

No meat or proteins
with your starches.

And no fruits
with your vegetables.

It's all about combinations.

[wrapper crinkling]

What the hell are you doing?

What?

I ain't gonna
combine this with nothing.

Looks like a candy bar,
doesn't it?

I bought it down
at the health food store.

High energy. I need that.

Look now. Look.

[Charlie]
8:45 in the a.m.,

and already my shirt
is sticking to my ass.

Huh.

Something's going down.

Call for backup.

What do you mean
call for backup?

Call for backup.
I've got a hunch.

The last time
you had a hunch, I got shot.

Call it in, Charlie.
We're on graffiti patrol!

[scoffs]

I'm staying here.
I don't care.

What's he looking at?
He's got a hunch.
He's got a hunch.

God, he's right.

One Charlie Deuce.
We've got a snatch and grab.

Three male Latino suspects
on foot.

Harrison, south of 3rd.

Also need backup.

This is One Brady Seven.
We're four blocks away.

Police! Hold it!

[horn, tires squealing]

[Men speaking Spanish]

Be cool. Keep going.

[police radio chatter]

Is he coming?
[siren]

Graffiti police.

Sorry. Graffiti police.

[siren]

Hey, did you see
that mess in there?

What do you say
we sit this one out

and wait for the gunshots?
Call in our 20!

I don't like alleys.

There are too many corners,
dead ends.

Call it in, Charlie!
"Call it in, Charlie."

Why don't you wait for your
new partner to play cowboy?

One Charlie Deuce, we are in
a sector known as "Robert."

We have initiated
a foot pursuit.

Or at least my partner has!

Go. You go. Go.

Charlie!

What?

That way!

Oh, I'll never catch up.

Geez!

[yelling in Spanish]

Police! Get against
the wall and spread 'em!

Man, why are we running
from this old man here?

[speaking Spanish]

Up against the wall,
kid.

Do it.

Are you deaf?

No entiendo.

¿No entiendo?

No. No entiendo.

Ah.

Ohh!

A broken nose is better
than a broken life.

¿Entiendo?
Huh?

Yes, yes, yes.
I speak English.

Right.
Estás loco!
Te voy a matar!

Yeah! I am crazy.

What are you doing,
man?

You can't shoot a cop.

I want to.

You're crazy.

Ahh.

[dog barking]

[groaning]

Oh, ohh!

Where this case goes,
I'm going.

[groaning]
I think it's broken, man.

[gunshot]

Daryl, you go that way.

It's not over, Milk Eye!

[Man over radio]
Uh, Dispatch One Adam 17,

ETA two minutes.

[police radio chatter]

Looks like
the road's blocked.

[laughs] Yeah.

Ahem.

Uh--
Excuse me, sir.

Hey.
Hey.

I'm a golden oldie.

[Woman on radio]
One Adam 17,

give me an exact location
when you get there.

"Robert" sector, 20th Avenue.

We're sending paramedics now.

[Man over radio]
Uh, roger that, dispatch.

This is One Adam 17.

Captain on scene.
Request has been made.

11-35. Request has been made.

[Irish brogue]
Top of the morning
to you, Captain.

And where have you been?

Chasing my tail.

You didn't see any of this?

He's fast.

Since when
do partners split up?

Since my fat ass collapsed,
Captain, darling.

And where have you been?

Why'd you leave the scene?

Well, there were two perps.

One is dead.
The other one had a weapon.

Ran away. I chose to go
after the one that was alive

and had the weapon, Captain.

Charlie.

I thought you guys
were on graffiti patrol.

[Charlie] We were.
And it's not graffiti,

it's art.
[laughs]

♪♪ [piano]

[general chatter]

So what kind of a mood
do we be in this evening?

[sighs] A shooter.

Ew, you be in a blue mood.

Refreshing.

Hey, Trumpet.

What a day.

Give me a tiny triple.

How you doing, partner?

Come on.
You didn't kill that kid.

Hey, you don't want
my company?

Fine.

Now, he was a scumbag.

Sir, one of your
finer sensibilities

has always been allowing
your underlings

to spread their wings.

Is this your subtle way
of asking

whether you can be let in
on a Logan case?

Well, let's see.
The physical evidence
is inconclusive.

No confessions,
no witnesses.

Hey, I love it.

Counselor, when I was a cop,
I found that people

were more afraid
of cops than crooks.

Sir, people get
the police they deserve.

They deserve better.

Now, I've seen
the coroner's report.

It fits the story
we're going to tell

of a time bomb in blue.

With all due respect, sir,

it's just
that I don't think

that the excessive force
by itself

is going to play
in Logan's case.

I mean, it's become cliché.

Do you have a better idea?

[Sports Announcer]
It is gonna hit home.

It's a live ball,
belongs to it,
over the fence.

Wow, what a big play.

Holy Toledo.
A huge break.

What happened to
the combination diet?

What's a better combination
than beer and whiskey?

Hey, hey.

Oh, hey, how you doing?
Sorry, I didn't hear you knock.

What's the score?

[Logan]
No score. Two fumbles.

I got the over.

Want a beer, Adam?

No, thanks.

What...is this?

Uh, Logan's a painter.

Painting what?

What's it bring to mind?

Nothing.

Well, see, that's
what he had in mind.

Did you come over here
to be an art critic?

This is very confusing.

[laughs]

Mr. Barker's out
to clean up the department.

Again?

[all chuckle]

I know ya'll find it
very amusing, but--

But?

I think he's gunning for you.

For what?

How'd you get Pepe's blood
on your sleeves?

I was feeling
for his pulse.

That makes sense.

Paraffin test came back.

No powder or soot
on Pepe's hands.

Pepe never had a gun.

You know,
maybe Logan shot him

when he returned fire.
Thanks.

Then he's got a long arm
because the coroner's saying

the kid was shot
from less than 3 feet.

It had to be Milk Eye.

Right. Milk Eye.

I heard a shot.
On the way over there.

It had to be Milk Eye.

Logan, it'd be nice
if we could find the gun

that matches the other
casings at the scene.

Where are you
going with this, Adam?

You should think about
changing your story.

Hey, I ain't
married to my story.

You're his partner.
Who's gonna believe you?

They don't have a case.

Logan, how many times
has the Complaint Board

spanked you for being
a bad-ass cop?

He's been decorated
five times.

Spanked six.

Oh, it's not a bad record
for 25 years.

Hey, he could
take a polygraph.

Thanks.

It's inadmissible.

Well, it still
lessens the doubt.

I think I will have a beer.

We gotta talk about this.

[Logan]
Sounds like Hertz is going
to pin me with Pepe.

Hey, no gun, no Milk Eye,
no case.

Charlie, Hertz is
looking for headlines.

I've got to find Milk Eye.
We'll start in Little Havana.

♪♪ [salsa]

[whistling]

[whistles] Charlie!

We're working!

[scoffs]

Good Lord, Leo, you and I
walked a beat together.

I thought you were
going to be the D.A.

that us cops could call
a brother-in-arms.

Oh, Charlie,
it hasn't changed.

But cops have to
be accountable.

Equal law for all.

That's how we put it
30 years ago.

I know Logan
like I know my priest.

And no way he's a shooter.

You know you know what?

Character.
Look the word up.

Buy a dictionary,
if you can read.

Easy, Charlie.

Yeah, easy, Charlie.

My friends call me Charlie.

You're worse than a pup.

You're something
I scrape off my shoe.

Charlie, uh,

McQueen is
highly decorated,

but you and I both know--

[chuckling]--
the man is a loose canon.

As I recall,
your statement indicates

that you weren't even present

at the time of the shooting,
is that correct?

Leo, the kid had
a broken ankle.

Why would Logan shoot somebody
who couldn't even walk?

Oh, come on.

A certain opportunity
presents itself,

a certain person has to go.
Who cares about a cockroach?

I thought you said
this guy was smart.

Is that the best
you can come up with?
That's pretty light.

Is it? I'm smart enough to know
that when nobody's watching,

we all have our moments.

Now,
you think about that,

Detective Duffy.

You get that finger
out of my face,

or I'll stick it
where your mama
takes your temperature.

Good idea.

[Adam]
Mr. Barker's out
to clean up the department.

Ohh!

[Logan]
I didn't kill the kid.

[Adam]
Problem is Barker
thinks you did.

[Charlie]
They got no case.

It's circumstantial.
But it's election year.

Hertz doesn't care
about a trial.

Hey!

Maybe Logan shot him,
and he returned fire.

Then he's got a long arm
because the coroner's saying

the kid was shot
from less than 3 feet.

I think he's gunning for ya.

You have the right
to an attorney,

to have an attorney present.

Get off it.

What do you think
you're gonna do with those?

Put away the handcuffs, Higgs.

You don't need 'em.

Logan, I'm gonna need
your shield.

Higgs, he knows the way.

No way they make that case.

Ray Hertz ain't
the dullest knife in the drawer.

♪♪ [flamenco]

Compañero.How are you?

I was counting on being
a half a million
dollars richer.

I'm sorry. [laughs]

I still expect to be paid.

So, you said
over the telephone

you wanted to whisper
something in my ear.

Well, I just found out

there's 310 grand
in the bag.

According to my arithmetic,

that's $190,000 light.

[laughs]

Who...do you think?

Who do I think

or what do I think?

[laughs]

You tell me.

Hi. I'll have
a hamburger, well done.

Cute. Any news
on the two whiz kids?

Nothing.

Pepe must have been
hanging around with them.

Pepe is a dead end.

No names?

Uh, somebody called
with a couple gang names.

You know,
Chu Chu, Catarato.

Catarato.

Milk Eye.
That's something.

Listen.

I need you out of here.

Yeah.

That hamburger done?

You don't need
anymore hamburgers.

Hi.

Bang-bang, compañero.

[Man]
McQueen, your lawyer's here.

[sighs]
So long, Ron.

Good luck, Logan.

They could have
knocked me down

when I got the call
from Charlie.

I didn't think
I could afford you.

Charlie passed a hat.

Oh.

How's it feel being on
the other side of the law?

I'm not on the other side
of the law.

Don't get me mixed up
with those lowlifes
you get off all the time.

[scoffs]
I don't like cops.

Nobody does
until they need one.

You weren't my idea.
It was Duffy's.

Okay, I'll tell Charlie
to give the money back.

Whoa, whoa.

Sorry. Please.

Did you kill him?

I didn't think you guys
asked that question.

I am not a guy,
and I'm asking.

No.

Did you kill him?

Those things
on the side of your head--

that hold up your earrings--

do they work?

Okay. I believe you.

I don't think
they have a case.

Obviously, somebody
disagrees with you.

There's one thing.
I call the shots.

What I say goes.
I am your judge and jury.

I decide.
Have you got that?

A benevolent dictator.

It's the perfect
form of government.

I love beating men
at their own game.

Especially prosecutors.

Let's see about
getting you out of here.

Bail set at 500,000.

Next case.

[Bailiff]
Case number 7294--

the state versus Baranski.

See you in court.
You know he passed
the lie detector test.

So what?

Bad?

Bad.

What if you can't make bail?

They move you to a cell...

until you go to trial.

Maybe they'll
make us roommates.

[shouting, groaning]

Hold!

Chu Chu.
[coughing]

Yeah?

Once the bond of trust
is broken,

it's very difficult
to show mercy!

I don't happen to have
your money, Mr. Martin.

I swear!

We got split up.

The cops started chasing us.

God, I think my head's
gonna fall off.

[coughing]

Where's Catarato?

No sé, no sé.
I don't know!

Chu Chu...

¿dónde esta Catarato?

I'm telling the truth.

I swear I don't know.

[Man]
I don't believe him.

That's the problem.
I do.

Hey, McQueen.
You made bail.

Dave?
I'm Ron.

Oh, Ron.
That's all right.

I'm happy for you
anyway.

[laughs] I'm gonna
be here a while.

How about that light?

Oh, yeah.

Keep 'em.

Uno momento.

Just cool it.
Okay, listen.

Are you telling me I have to
put the original carburetor

and the air filter
back in the car

before I can get
a safety inspection?

[scoffs] I threw
the other part away.

'Cause it wasn't working.

They don't make
the originals no more!

Buddy, you can tell
your buddies down at the DMV

they can kiss my cherubic buns
because I won't--

Lord have mercy!

Look at you!
Give me some sugar!

Logan, you look good.

Oh, woof.
The lady is dangerous.

for you at church.

Been kneeling
a little myself.

Get on over there.

Do your business.

Yes, ma'am.

Mmm-mm.
Check it out.

Boy's still got back.

Did Charlie put up
the whole 50?

Mmm, who knows
anything around here?

Hello, Lalo.

You're due in court

How'd you like me

What do you want?

I'm looking for a last name
for a Catarato.

Hey man, there's a lot of
Cataratos around here, man.

Catarato Escobar, Catarato
Castro, Catarato Catarato.

Ai, aii.

I'm just looking for one man.

Yeah, but he uses many names.

How many got a milk eye?

Ai.
Huh, huh?

I don't hear that.

It's Catarato Estevez.

What?

Catarato Estevez!

Catarato Estevez?

Oh, thank you very much.

I want you to bump
any case you can

to get Logan on the docket.

Myler's
one hell of an attorney,
but she can be a witch,

and you can
substitute a "b" there.

I'm certain
you can hold your own.

You know, I realize there are
certain people who wonder why

you want to try this case
before the election,

but, like I said,
look at the polls.

Logan's serving a purpose.

This is not about
the election, Hertz.

It's about law and order.

[laughs] Thanks.

Nice evening.

So far.

Get in.

Since you asked so sweetly.

Oh, buenas noches,
Sergeant.

Bienvenidos.

Well I was waiting
for a bigger car.

A bigger car?

Godzilla! Very funny.

[laughs]
Would you like a big drink?

Well, only if the pretty guy
here is the waiter.

[laughs] A cop
with a feel for comedy.

How amusing.

I guess you know who I am.

Oh, I know
who you are, Mr. Martin.

I busted you a while back
for running a horse parlor.

That you did.
You certainly did.

That was a long time ago.

Well, not so long ago.
15 years.

You've risen
to the head of the class.

This country's
been good to me.

I got no complaints.

What's on your mind?

I've got a lot on my mind.

But I know that you're
a man in a hurry.

You want me to be laconic
and get to the point, huh?

I have no charm.

Besides, you have enough
charm for both of us.

Only when it hurts.

Where's my money?

Excuse me?

I'm your patron.

Patron?

Yeah, how the hell do
you think that you made bail?

You think Christmas
came early this year?

A half a million dollars
was in that bag

when it left my hands.

And only 310,000

was counted out by
your own forensic officers.

What's that got to do
with me?

You were the officer
at the scene.

That's what it has
to do with you.

Well, I was a police officer,

a bag man,

Chu Chu and Catarato.

That's true.

But you're the only bird
that we have in hand.

[laughter]

I would like to treat you

with the respect
and the dignity
that you deserve, but--

So when my boys
start asking you
"Where's the money?"

I suggest that you
answer them quickly

and honestly, hmm?

Well, then we have a problem

'cause I don't like it
when anybody touches me,

puts their hands on me

or my bird.

Pull over.

Have a beautiful evening.

[Logan]
You got lead in there?

Yeah, I do.

That's gonna slow your
hand speed down, isn't it?

Maybe not.

Oh.

What happened?

[gunshot]

[heartbeat]

[tires squealing]

Where's my money?

Half a million dollars
was in that bag

when it left my hands.

And only $310,000

was counted up by
your own forensic officers.

[grunting]

There was a police officer,
a bag man,

Chu Chu and Catarato.

Where's my money?

[gunshot]

[seagulls squawking]

Disoriented?

Yeah.

This couldn't be your place.

It's too feminine.

You have two cracked ribs.
Would you like to try for three?

You must have walked
three, four miles

before you fainted
at Charlie's door.

And that wasn't
very "macho" of you.

Yeah, it wasn't.

Did Charlie bring me here?

No, I did.

We thought
you'd be safer here.

I didn't think
he brought me here.

I mean, he couldn't have known
about all these...

these pillows.

I mean, why do women always
have these little pillows?

They're useless.

They're nice to look at,
but useless.

Relatable symbolism
for you, I assume.

The last guy who slept here,

it's been the last guy
who slept here.

That's cute.

Hey, Lefty.

Boy, you look so sweet.

How's my Rose of Tralee?

What do you want now?

You posted a bail bond
on a guy with a milk eye.

Nicknamed Catarato.

Tito Estevez.

I want to see his file.

Oh, our files
are sacred, honey.

Just like the one you took
from the precinct.

How much?

Why would I
give you the file?

Logan needs it.

How come?

If he wanted me to know,
I'd tell you.

Cute.

You know the best ten years
of an Irishman's life?

3rd grade?

[laughs]
One of these days I'll
find one you don't know.

Oh, you're lucky.
This is your lucky day.

He owes me some money.

[phone ringing]

I love you, Mama.

You just oughta.

Close that door behind you!

You were quite an athlete.

Excuse me?

At Charlie's place,
when I went to help him out--

He's got a shrine to your
football, boxing, track.

Oh. I wore a few sweaters.

Do you have any family?

Just Charlie.

No, I mean birth family.

The men I know love
to talk about themselves.

Oh, really?

Oh...

bounced around.

You were a runaway?

No. My father was a runaway.

I was only five years old.

But I could tell
he wasn't coming back.

I ran after him,
I tackled him.

Punched me in the nose.

My mother was never
quite the same after that.

And then I went from
foster home to foster home.

Where does Charlie come in?

Charlie kind of plucked me up
when I was about 16.

Talked to the coaches.

They gave me a second chance.

I figured it out.

Football hero
sometimes gets the girl.

He listens to
everything I say.

He even listens when
I haven't got anything to say.

He listens all the time.

And if your
birth father showed up?

I'd punch him in the nose,
go back to Charlie.

What are you gonna do when you
get too old to punch any noses?

Become a shepherd.

My brother used to get
in a lot of fights.

My father took him aside.

He explained to him,
"You get nothing with this.

You get everything with this."

Your father wasn't a cop.

[laughs]

I'll call Charlie.

Have him come pick me up.

Why?

Well, I can't sleep
on those dumb pillows again.

Oh, that's okay.

You can sleep on the couch.

Hi, I just let myself in.

Hi.
Oh, I'm starved.

Oh, I fixed this for you.
Oh, you shouldn't have.

How did you know
I was coming?

What'd you find out?

Well, I think I, uh...

I found Catarato's address.

How about you?

Martin says
the bag was light.

He thinks you took it.

I told him you took it.

Want to split it?

Good morning.

Hi.
Hi.

Um, where's this breakfast
you promised me?

Oh.
You know, 35 years,

he never even once
dropped a piece of bread
in a toaster for me.

Oh, marital problems?

Oh, yes.
Low blood sugar.

He's kind of grouchy.

You sleep okay?

No. You?

Best sleep in months.

I'm gonna jump in the shower.
I'll fix you breakfast.

Yeah, I'll make sure he does.

Almost as good as mine.

Oh, I, um,
I got this for ya.

Just in case, you know.

That way when they hit you,
you can shoot back.

Oh.

Love the flower.

Come on.
We've got work to do.

Who else could have
taken Martin's money?

A cop in the property room,
Catarato, me--

Did Catarato look like
he was packing dough?

Hell, I don't know.
I'm not sure anymore.

What about
Martin's bag man?

Oh, I think he's
with his maker.

[laughs]
Be funny if he did do it.

Yeah.

You know the only guy
that's going to get me off

is the shooter.

Yeah, Catarato.

You got it.

Buenas "duez."

If you took Martin's money,
would you still be in town?

Would you?

Here it is. Yeah.

All right.
Seven.

[buzzing]

What?
[cats meowing]

I'm Detective McQueen.

I'd like to ask you
a few questions.

You got any ID?

Yes, ma'am.

Got anything
with a picture on it?

Yes, ma'am.

Oh, I need my glasses.
Hold on.

Oh.

He's got black hair.

I know. It's an old--
it's an old picture.

That ain't you.

No, it is me.
No, it ain't you.

It is me.
I dyed my hair.

Why? Why?
Why'd you dye it?

You look much younger
when it was black.

Can we come in?

How about you, dolly?

You a cop, too?

Uh, a clairvoyant.

[laughs]

Well, let me put my cat up.

Okay, fellas, this way.

Now, watch your step.

Now you can meet
all my cats.

Here they are.

Oh, would you fellows
hanker for a beer?

Uh, no.
He's on the wagon

and I'm here
to lend moral support.

What's on your mind?

[cats meowing, screeching]

Uh, we're looking
for an ex-tenant.

He was here
about a year ago.
Apartment four.

If he ain't here now,
he don't exist.

Uh, please?

Oh, all right.

Let me see now...

Oh, yes. Number four's
been here nine months.

You can't reach back
nine months?

Well, who'd want to remember?

Precious, that cat is dead.

I knew that.

Maybe the owner
kept some records.

You're looking at her, honey.

At least, since
my better half kissed off.

Well, we won't waste
any more of your time.

Oh, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

I got some kind of a notice
from the DMV

about that unit, oh,
a few weeks back.

You're looking
for a girl, right?

Catarato is a girl.

You still have the notice?

Why would I?

Let's go.

I'm ready.
Are you sure
you don't want a beer?

No, no, I'm
a hard liquor man, myself.

Hey, dolly, I got that, too.

No, duty calls.

Charlie, you can stay
if you want to.

No, I gotta go.
I gotta go. Gotta go!

[laughs] Hmm.

Been a long day.
Crazy people out there.

Give me one for the road.
Right.

Let's help you get caught up.

On the tab.

There was about
60 candles all
over the place.

It was beautiful.

[speaking Spanish]

Well, Mr. McQueen.

Please, have a chair.

Oh, are you an aficionado
of flamenco dancing?

I was until I found out

José Greco
was born in Brooklyn.

[laughs]

Would you care to join me
in some paella marlina?

I've lost my appetite.

Oh. So have they.

Because their jaws
are broken, eh?

[laughs]

I should bounce them

but I'm too sentimental.

Someone tried to
kill me last night.

Hey, don't look at me.

Maybe you should
call the police, huh?

Or maybe it was the police.

Are you telling me that the
police are trying to kill me?

No. I'm saying that everybody
thinks you've got enemies.

[laughs]
If I had the money,
I wouldn't be here.

Yes, yes, yes.
I see.

But what about Catarato?

Why can't you find him?

I haven't got him yet.

But I'll get him.

[chuckles] Okay.

My boys are out of commission

so I guess
you're my only hope.

[laughs]

Come on. Come on!

My friend. Please.

Yes, yes. [laughs]

I just want one more
shot at you.

Tell him not to talk
with his mouth full.

Hey, McQueen!

Suerte.

Ms. Myler.
Mr. Hertz.

You're in
the big leagues, again.

I never left.

Sort of a turnaround,
you defending a cop.

Oh, I don't think so.

Seeing as sort of crooks
and cops are odd couples.

Oh, I wish I'd said that.

Oh, you will, Mr. Hertz.

Maybe for once
I'm on the same side as you.

Oh, come on.
Hear me out.

Barker wants this
to be the second crucifixion.

Now suppose I can
whittle him down

to a reasonable plea bargain.

I'm not saying I can't--

Oh, spare me
the soft sell, Mr. Hertz.

I've read
the ballistics report.

None of the casings near
the body match Logan's gun.

It's almost lewd,

you and Barker
pushing this into court.

Why if I didn't know better,

I would accuse you
of playing politics.

Don't ever say
I didn't try and help.

When I need your kind of help,

I will quit the bar.

Logan's going down.

We have more money
than he does.

Maybe.

If money can beat brains.

Good afternoon, Mr. Hertz.

That half performance chip
should be in mañana,Logan.

Nice to see you, Goober.

It's Davie.
Oh, that's right.

Davie Goober.

Thanks for
the window, Davie.

Yes, sir.

Goober smoocher.

Why the hell you gotta be
so tough on the kid for?

Oh, you caught that, huh?
Aah, it's chemical.

Listen, we got one car
that cross-checks

with three
outstanding parking tickets

at the cat lady's address.

Got one hot check
charged a couple of years ago,

and no home phone.

Registered to a Nyguen,
Nyguan, Nygu-- oh,
I can't pronounce it.

Asian.
Yeah, that's what I said.

Ah, old business phone.
We've got an address.

2512.
I know it.

Be right back.

I'll be right with you.

Okay.

May I help you?
Um, yeah.

I was looking for some
carnations or bird of paradise.

Funeral?

No, no.

I was just
trying to impress somebody.

What would you suggest?

A single black orchid.

Would that impress you?

I better just take
the single, black orchid.

We don't have any
in stock.

I'll be back.

Don't forget to check
the back door
and the thermostat.

You got that?
Yeah, sure.
Okay.

Good night.
Bye.

Move. Pervert.

Get your own window.

It's Catarato.

I'm going in.

[whispering]
Logan!

This guy's a two time loser.
Wait for backup!

Go back to the car
and call it in.

Hello, Milk Eye.

Get dressed.

Get up.

You took away my gun once.

You killed the kid.

What you expect?

Pepe was a crack head.

He slowed me down.

He was gonna tell on me.

What'd you do with my gun?

Got rid of it.

Where was the money going?

Same place
you pick up your check.

My precinct?

What about the money?

I was going to take the money
but then I saw that other cop.

What cop?

There was another cop
in the alley besides me?

I don't care if you
believe it or not.

How do you know
it was a cop?

Give me a break.

Logan, they're coming.
Backup's on its way.

Read him his rights, Charlie.

Come on, you know the drill.
Read 'em!

Young lady, you should know
better than to hang around--

Charlie, get out of--

Did you ever see anybody
that fast?

Did you see him
go out that window?

I couldn't believe it.

Load up, Charlie!
Take it easy. That's my car.

Shut up!

Take it easy!
Wait, this is my car!

Will you take it,
will you take it easy?

What, what, what's that?

[indistinct dialogue]

[siren]

Where you going?
Where you going?

You'd think espresso beans would
be stronger than French roast

but it's the other way around.

What were we talking about?

Higgs.

Higgs. Um, who knows?

On the surface,
he's a carbon copy of you.

You know,
he's been suspended.

For what?
Excessive force.

It seems someone filed
a complaint which was
a little shady.

So Higgs paid the guy a visit
and it escalated.

Sound familiar.

Yeah.
Higgs was the first cop
on the scene.

So?

So, how long was it
before he called it in?

How would I know?

There was me
and there was Logan.

And there was Higgs.

And there was me.

I was being polite, Captain.

Thank you.

Check that bag and see
if Higgs' prints are on it.

You're not intimating
he shot Pepe?

Captain, there was a lot
going on in that alley that day.

Just keeping an open mind.

Very good.

French roast.

You buy Milk Eye saw
another cop in the alley?

Charlie, Catarato's dead.

If Higgs is the cop
in the alley,

then I need him as a witness.

This place smells fishy.

And so does Higgs.

Oh, over there.

Look.

Yo! Higgs!

Sergeant.
Who died?

Or did you inherit that?

It was a drug auction.

Yeah, right.

Too bad I can't afford one.

This a social call
or what?

It's an "or what."
Be right down.

Oh. Look at this, will ya?

A drug auction?

He must have been the only one
who knew about the auction.

Hi. I'm single.

Been expecting you.

Is that a fact?

Somebody from downtown
called me and asked me
a bunch of dumb questions.

What do you remember
about the alley?

I put it behind me.

How come?

It never made sense.

How long was it between
the time you heard the shots

and found Pepe?

I didn't look at my watch.

Uh, maybe five minutes?

You sure?
Why do I have to be sure?

Just long enough.

What's that supposed to mean?

Don't be so defensive.

[laughs]
Look who's talking.

You just saw Pepe,
nobody else?

I would say Pepe
focused my mind.

What about the bag?

What about it?
Did you pick it up?

Why would I?

I know better than
to mess with a crime scene.

What are you so touchy about?

Why are you here?

Don't you know?
I've got a secret yen for you.

Did you know that
there was money

missing from that bag?

The money belonged to Martin.

Connie Martin?
Connie Martin.

And he says it was
stolen by a cop.

Yeah, like an arrogant cop.

Thinks everybody else
is stupid.

It's a sign of youth.

Better get your partner out
of here before I kick his ass.

You better bring your lunch.

Charlie, you mind
taking a walk?

Yes, I would.

Well, do it anyway.

Charlie's like a candle,

that's about burned
right down to the end.

Well, it won't happen to me.

Yeah.

You got a boat.

I wouldn't get too comfy
in that chair.

I think it fits rather well.

Yeah, it looks like we're
going to be around for a while.

Ready to drop the charges?

Oh, that was yesterday.

Uh, you're drooling.

[laughs] The only other
bullet casings matched this gun.

Which turned up in a dumpster

a few blocks away
from the crime scene.

Please.

Now, the surprise is that

we come to find out
that the gun is registered

to you.

You see, Ms. Myler,

it is in fact true
that cops and crooks

make odd couples.

You lied to me.

I didn't kill that kid.

Counselor, I would like
a moment with my client, please.

Not in my office.

Your office?

Counselor, Officer McQueen.

Please be seated.

Do you want your client
present for this?

I'd like to hear
everything you have to say.

Is this your gun,
Officer McQueen?

Don't answer that.

Yes, sir.

Shut up.

And these?

Yes, sir.

[whispers]
Logan, please.

Ms. Myler,

I think we had a case
before this gun was turned in.

And now our case
isn't any worse because of it.

Sir, I had
the perps cornered.

Took my eye off Catarato
for a moment.

He blindsided me.

And, uh, he took my gun.

Sorry, I didn't hear that.

He took my gun.

I had a backup.
I had another glock.

Ankle holster.

Are we supposed to believe
that super cop lost his gun

and his handcuffs, too?

I had-- I have

a hard time admitting that.

I have stepped over the line

a few times.

More than a few times.

Know what?

No matter what kind of spin
Ms. Myler puts on this,

I will be forced
to own up to a crime

that I did not commit.

I will be forced
to say I was a bad cop.

Please don't take my badge.

If someone was in the alley,

then he's got to be connected
to the money in the bag.

If that's true,
you better find him quick

because I think Barker's
going to go for the full boat.

Hmm.
What do you think?

Well, I'll chase
the money.

And...at the end
of the chase?

I haven't decided.

You're out of time.

When news of your gun
hits the press,

Hertz is not going to let
Barker sit on that

for more than a sunset.

I thought maybe you could
stall them for a day or two.

Plea bargain or whatever.

Maybe it'll help me.

If not, I'll do
whatever you decide.

I know you will.

I'm surprised you didn't
go over the table after Hertz.

So am I.

I tried to do it...

your father's way.

Good luck.

[Man]
Come on, Darrell,
you work here too.

[Man #2]
Get another car up here.

Give me one second.

Got to get this one
back on the road.

That's okay, you're
doing me the favor.

Someone tried to
kill me last night.

Maybe you should call
the police, huh?

Or maybe it was the police.

[gunshot]

Well, you'd think
these guys would take
better care of my cars.

So, Logan, you been
doing some of that
secret police stuff?

Logan?

That was quick.

Yeah.
Hold it.

I know that look.
What's going on?

Do me a favor. I want you
to go back to forensics.

See if they have
any smudged prints

on that bag
of Catarato.

Oh, come on.
Catarato wastes Pepe,

grabs 190 grand,

shoves it down his fly,
and then vaults
a nine-foot fence?

Just do it, pal.

El Capitan.

Hey hey.

How'd it go
at the DA's?

Complicated.

However, I got
a fresh lead.

That's a relief.

Yeah. I got
an anonymous phone call.

They want to meet
me tonight.

At Charlie's place.
They said they know who
the money is going to.

Also, I'm meeting
Catarato's sister.

I understand she's
very attractive.

I wouldn't know.
I'm a happily married man.

So was I,
a couple of times.

You sound a little hostile.

No. I'm feeling
real friendly.

I'll let you know
how it turns out.

If you got
any dates tonight,
boys, cancel them.

If you're the kind
of man I think you
are, you'll be here.

somebody tried to whack me.

I got a shot off.

Today, guess whose car
had a hole through
the license plate?

I'm tired of guessing.

It was our dear
Captain Gunther.

Yeah.

Catarato was
Gunther's snitch.

Says who?

I figure Gunther
told him to

watch his bag man.

And then Catarato decided to
go into business for himself.

Sounds like the...

the novice outwits
the master.

Well, almost.

Gunther's on the take
from Martin.

And Gunther may try
to kill me tonight.

But he wasn't the cop
in the alley.

And Gunther didn't
take the money.

I don't follow.

Uh, what about Higgs?

I've been running this
over and over
in my mind, Charlie.

Sometimes, you know,
you have to...

step back from the puzzle.

Get a look
at the people.

I still don't follow.

Whoever was in that alley

had everything to do
with taking the money.

You're way ahead of me.

Am I?

You see, there were
three people

that knew how much money
that bag was light.

Martin, Gunther, and me.

But you said something
this afternoon keeps
coming back to me.

You said,

"Catarato made off
with 190 grand."

So what?
So what?

So how did you know

exactly how much money
that bag was light?

How did you know
that, Charlie?

Unless it was you
that took the money.

[gunshot]

I swear,

I couldn't imagine
it would escalate.

Now, who'd have
thought they'd pin

Pepe on you?

When I was 16 years old,

a cop and his wife
came into my life.

You and Edie,
a ready-made family,

no strings attached.

And you taught me
self-respect and love.

I excelled.

I excelled,
didn't I, Charlie?

I loved you.

I trusted you.

You betrayed me.

[clank]

I betrayed myself.

All those things
you said I taught you...

I've lost.

I'm scared.

You know, sometimes,

when you're with
a disease this long,

some of us get infected.

And Edie, Edie--

And then there was just us,
just the two of us.

Look at all the millions we
turned in over the years.

Chances we've taken,
always at risk, for what?

Logan?

They're going to
give me a gold watch
and a piss-ant pension.

Let's go.
Logan, damn it, listen.

I'll say that I
stole the money.

I'll tell them
I killed the kid.

Catarato shoot Pepe.

And you skate.

How am I going to live
with that, Charlie?

I don't know.

No. There's no reason

for both of us to
end up behind bars.

What are you going to do?

You know, if Myler's
as good as she
thinks she is,

with an early
release, you--

you could be out
in less than a year.

I forgive you, Charlie.

I only hope you can
forgive yourself.

I know that I disappoint--

Don't say anything.

Now get out.

You broke my heart.

I know.

Where you going?

Hey! I never told you

Don't you want to know

Well, he has a right
to be mad.
