Hey, Mike. What's goin' on?

- We got a problem, Bobby.
- Come here.

BOBBY: What's up?

Patsy Ferrara's in trouble.

- They got him down at the 64th Precinct.
- He's locked up?

He punched a guy. Some Salvadoran
that works at Tommy Frumento's place.

He was peein' on the sidewalk

- outside of Tommy's coffee shop...
- Patsy was peein'?

- Busboy comes out to stop him...
- Hi.

...and he clocked him real good.

- Well, was he drunk?
- No.

He's, uh... his mind is slippin',
I think, Bobby.

No. All right? That's just Patsy.
I mean, too many hooks.

No. I... I know what's Patsy.
I'm tellin' you, this is different.

A couple of days
he forgot to come to work.

I mean, I try to talk to him,
it's like he ain't even all there.

So, Tommy couldn't reach out
to this busboy?

My guess, not. The guy got a cop.

All right. Let...
let me make a few phone calls.

Mikey, Patsy's still got a job with you,
right? I mean, I can say he works for you.

MIKE: He's always got a job
with me, Bobby.

I... I'm just tellin' you
what's the situation.

- All right, Mikey.
- Okay. Hey, how's your birds?

My... my birds are all right.
How about yours?

Yeah, they're all right. I gotta get back.

BOBBY: All right.

ANDY: What's up?

Ah, the old guy that, uh, taught me birds,
he took a collar in the 64.

Patsy Ferrara. Club fighter?

- Used to fight at Sunnyside?
- BOBBY: Yeah.

He fought some ranked guys.
Yeah, he fought Archie Moore.

We got an abduction on Tenth and First.

A guy got snatched off the street
in broad daylight.

Everybody on it.

- We might have a lead...
- Okay, Andy.

I'll catch up with you, all right?

Probably a Colombian drug dealer.
I ain't gonna run any red lights.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

(THEME MUSIC CONCLUDES)

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

The victim was comin' out
of that pastry shop

when two guys with ski masks
jumped out of a gray van.

They bludgeoned the driver,
then grabbed him up.

Name is Bernard Kaiser.
He's some kind of heavy hitter.

- I got eyewitnesses right here.
- Anybody get a plate?

Yeah, four numbers. I put it out
with a description of the van.

- That's the driver?
- Yeah. Larry Simms is his name.

- Victim's a legit guy with juice.
- Yeah, we're gonna have company.

- You want us to canvass?
- Yeah.

You better let the boss know

- he ought to call Aiello.
- I'll check the car out.

Yeah.

Larry Simms, I'm Detective Sipowicz.

Look, you guys gotta find Mr. Kaiser.
He's got a bad heart.

ANDY: All right, tell me what happened.

Uh. Mr. Kaiser likes to stop
at this bakery every morning.

They got some kinda
fat-free muffin that he likes.

He goes in there by himself?
No bodyguards or anything?

He... he's not like that.
He's like a regular guy, only rich.

I mean, I'm supposed to look after him
as much as he lets me.

- ANDY: And these guys came at you?
- Yeah, out of a dark gray van.

And one of the gorillas
swung a tire iron at my head.

Describe the gorilla.

- Uh. Stocking mask. Uh, blue ski cap...
- WILLIAM: I'm Director of Security...

- ...uh, gloves, white guy.
- That's the guy you want to talk to.

Huge, 6'4". I didn't get much of a look
at the other guy.

He was wearin' a ski hat, too, though.

William Crawford, director of security
for the Kaiser Companies.

- Mr. Crawford, I am sorry...
- You talk later.

You're in charge here?

- Yeah. Detective Sipowicz.
- Well, we gotta move on this fast.

Mr. Kaiser's got a heart condition.

Uh. Feels like an audiotape.

Well, that's probably the ransom demand.

I got a tape deck in my car.
We can hear it right now.

- Who's this?
- REPORTER: Detective, over here.

REPORTER 2: Detective, can you make
a statement about the case?

Uh. Well, you know,
we'd do better at the station house.

- It's only a few blocks away.
- I want the FBI notified.

Right. We do that in kidnappings.

Come on. Let's finish looking at the car.

I used to be in the Bureau.

So, I... I know what kind of technology
and manpower they can bring to bear.

Oh, they got massive technology.

ADRIENNE: This way. Upstairs.

(TELEPHONE RINGING IN DISTANCE)

If, uh... if you two gentlemen
can wait in here.

I'll be right back.

- (GLASS CLATTERING)
- Donna.

- Hi, Greg.
- (EXHALES) You surprised me.

I'm back from my course.

Yeah, y... y... you sorta snuck up
on me there.

Uh. Just suddenly being
at the refrigerator.

- Hmm.
- (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

DONNA: So, how have you been?

- Very well. Yeah.
- DONNA: Good.

Yeah. We had an abduction.

I'm... I'm just gonna be, uh,
interviewing some witnesses.

- Do you need the room?
- Eventually. Um. Uh. Toast your Danish.

(CHUCKLES)

So, y... you're, um...

you're all versed in computers now?

- The information superhighway?
- It, um, was a word processing class.

Oh, that special skill, huh?

- How's your family?
- Very well. The girls.

Yeah. Uh. Jamie made All-Star.

- Hmm.
- Her soccer league. Yeah.

And Marie and me, that area,
you know, that's more or less

resumed being an utter disaster.

- (CHUCKLING)
- I'm sorry.

Ah, you don't have to be sorry.

It's that some people
are meant for disaster.

- (SIGHS HEAVILY)
- Yeah.

Anyway, uh, yeah, it's, uh...
it's good to see you.

- Thank you.
- Y... your Danish done?

DONNA: Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I'm gonna go get,
uh, the witnesses now.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

DISTORTED VOICE OVER TAPE:
Meet our conditions or Bernard Kaiser

will die.

Prepare three million dollars
in used 20-dollar bills.

Put the money in three suitcases.

We will call with further instructions.

The man had no sense

on the subject of personal security.

You could talk
till you were blue in the face.

- What kind of distortion is that?
- Computer-generated voice.

They got software now
that'll speak whatever you type into it.

Now, we got two people
at the corporate headquarters

waitin' on the follow-up phone call.

Two from Homicide at Kaiser's condominium,
and two from Major Case

at the home in Connecticut.

The phones are trapped at each location,
and we're still canvassing

on Tenth Street.

Out of here we follow up
on witness statements,

and go through
the company personnel records.

That is, if Mr. Crawford's
ever gonna produce 'em

- for us.
- The FBI comin' in?

They've been notified.
Right now, it's our investigation.

(PAGER BEEPING)

Ah, chief of D's. Can we put this
on hold for a few minutes?

- Yeah, sure.
- All right.

Detective Russell on line two.
She says it's urgent.

- Thanks, Donna.
- DONNA: Detective Simone,

- Tommy Frumento to see you.
- ARTHUR: Yeah, hey, Diane, what's up?

- ARTHUR: Okay.
- BOBBY: Give me two minutes with this guy.

Yeah, I'll let you know what you miss.

ARTHUR: Yeah. Yeah,
I know the FBI will get to process this.

Tommy, appreciate you comin' in.

Yeah, well, I don't appreciate
Patsy pissin' on my place.

Yeah. Come out here for a second.

Tommy, you gotta know
that wasn't personal.

Tell that to the guy whose face he busted.

- Did this busboy lay hands on him at all?
- Maybe he gave him a shove, I don't know.

But the point is, on top of doin'
what he was doin' on the sidewalk

while I got people
in there eatin' breakfast,

Patsy turns around, gives my guy
a hard shot to the face.

Busboy all right?
He had to go to the hospital?

Uh, no. He... he... he didn't wanna lose
a day's pay.

But he wanted Patsy charged?

He wanted him charged.
That's... that's... that's his position.

Look, I tell you the truth, Bobby.
Every morning, the guy sits in my joint

45 minutes with a coffee and a Danish.

Half the people he talks to
he don't even know.

All right. What if we get Patsy to promise
not to come around anymore?

You think the busboy will cool out?

I don't know. Uh.
I... I might be able to talk to him.

Well, that would be great, Tommy.

- You know, I... I got a business to run.
- BOBBY: Yeah, I understand that.

Let me explain things to Patsy.

Yeah, I'm...
I'll try to cool out the busboy.

- How's your birds?
- Good.

Okay. Uh. You gotta excuse me, man.

Yeah, you... you should come
around yourself sometime, Bobby.

- Got great haddock on Tuesdays.
- Yeah.

Bill Crawford.

- I was at the Bureau for 22 years.
- Uh-huh.

Frederick Wilson, Inspector.
Assistant special agent in charge.

MALE INSPECTOR: I just spoke
with chief of detectives.

FREDERICK: He told you we're taking over?

- Yeah.
- Really? All our cases?

MALE INSPECTOR:
Have you met Lieutenant Fancy?

How you doin'?

We've relieved your people
at Kaiser's office

- and both places of residence.
- My detective just called and told me.

I'm sorry for the delay in apprising you.

- Excuse me.
- These witnesses from East Tenth Street?

Mm-hmm. You want our interview notes?

We'll reinterview. But sure.
Round them up. Get 'em down to our office.

The perpetrators have made second contact.

We'll have instructions
about the money drop

- at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.
- You trap the call?

- Covered.
- Well, that's the original ransom demand.

FREDERICK: Could I have that, please?

- Certainly.
- Will you want liaison on the money drop?

Sure. We'll give you a call.

Gentlemen...
grateful for your cooperation.

Lieu, um, I need to put in
for some lost time.

We're not busy here.

Hello, Miss Donna Abandando. Remember me?

- Vaguely.
- Steven Ronald Richards. Nice to see you.

- Who do you wanna see, Steve?
- Well, not to be so mysterious about it,

but, Donna, what's about to happen

for me, I mean,
this is like a turnabout in luck

so strong, I don't know,

like, what to do with myself.
(CHUCKLES, SNIFFS)

Which would make you want to see who?

Right. Of course.
Actually, Martinez. Detective.

Steve Richards. Remember me?
About a year back I helped you

with that, uh, pawn shop robbery.
The guys,

- they had the fake noses with the, uh...
- Groucho glasses.

Hey! I led you to those guys, remember?

- JAMES: I remember you, Steve.
- STEVE: Yeah.

Yeah. One of the scumbags
offered you a cut.

You were ready to sell us down the toilet.

Well, uh... (LAUGHS) That's good.

Yeah. Well, I'm a different man today,
Detective. Let me start by saying,

I am totally straight.
Not a parking citation.

- Nothing. Last ten months? Check me out.
- Yeah. What do you need here, Steve?

That guy this morning
who got snatched?

I got information

- put you with a player in that.
- JAMES: Mm?

- STEVE: Uh-huh.
- Talk me outta my doubts.

(CHUCKLES) Detective, come on.
In context of our history,

for me to come here and run somethin'?

You guys would beat the ass off me,
and I would, you know...

totally deserve it, right?

Anyway, Steve, it looks like
the FBI's takin' over this case.

- Oh, the Bureau is, huh?
- He got somethin' on the kidnapping?

Yeah. I do. Yes, I do. Absolutely.

Steve nearly burned us
on a case last year, Andy.

Yeah, but I nearly burned you,
but my information was solid.

Is that a fair appraisal? Right?

My name's Sipowicz.
I'd be interested in hearin' what you got.

Pleasure to meet you, Sipowicz.
Steve Richards.

Glad to know you, Sipowicz.
(CLEARS THROAT)

I hear the, uh, FBI
is takin' over. Is that... is that a fact?

(CLEARS THROAT) Yes. Uh. We have.

STEVE: Oh, I see.

'Cause I could break this case for you.

Mm-hmm. Right money,
I could break this case wide open.

- Why don't we talk in here, uh, Steve.
- Absolutely.

So, I'd rather this weren't,
you know, a footing.

You know, like, who's gonna show
their thing first.

You know, what I mean?
I mean, we're adults.

No need to act that way, am I right?

On the other hand, you know, um,

some aspect with specifics
in terms of, like,

- a money figure, I'd, uh, be grateful.
- The kidnap victim was rich, Steve.

And he's got a heart condition.

- You wanna sit down?
- Meaning, reason for optimism, you know,

with family gratitude or, like,
a willingness to generosity, right?

- Well put.
- Hmm.

Let me ask ya, um,
how would that translate...

with specific figures?
Any indication there?

I don't wanna seem impatient, Steve,

but, uh, you're in a situation
where you could get struck.

That's fine. Fair.
I... I'm sorry. No problem.

Let me partially expose myself.

I was, uh, outside OTB yesterday...

- Which office?
- Grand Street.

- ANDY: Mm-hmm.
- Which I bet...

and I'm outdoors...

'cause the secondhand smoke
is a menace.

And I'm, like, three feet
from this public pay phone,

and I overhear this, you know, fragment.

Guy says...

"Why are you gonna grab him
in the daylight?"

- From the guy on the telephone?
- STEVE: Exactly.

So, now, what, I am totally interested,
correct? Then I hear him say...

"And you're gonna take him at the bakery?"

- And, uh, you can pick this guy out.
- I could absolutely pick this guy out,

and he's a gambling degenerate,
you know, with reliable whereabouts.

He'd still be gambling even if he just,
uh, kidnapped someone?

Actually, I'm suggesting an aspect of,
uh, knowledge on his part for...

possibly, uh, not actually participating
in the snatch.

Can we discuss a specific money figure
at this time, please? (SLURPS)

- What are you lookin' for?
- (GULPS)

A hundred-thousand dollars.

Is that... I mean, uh... uh,
that's probably, you know, uh,

more than you're used to hearing. I mean,
it's a lot of money, you know, actually...

That shouldn't be a problem
if your information is productive.

- No.
- No, I don't see it as a problem. None.

- Not at all.
- Mm. Not in my opinion. No.

No.

(INHALES DEEPLY) Oh, my gosh,
I need some vodka.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

- MALE OFFICER: There you go.
- BOBBY: Thanks.

Hey, Patsy.

Ah, Bobby Simone.

- Come on. Let's get out of here.
- I'm arrested. They said I hit a guy.

Yeah. Uh. Look, Patsy,
you're gonna get a DAT,

a Desk Appearance Ticket.
I'll explain outside.

How's your birds?

They're good.
Come on. I'll tell ya outside.

Man, I gotta get back to work.
Fat Mike's gonna kill me.

The second time I was ever collared.

They had me the chicky once

when they stole some copper wire
off a construction site.

- Nah, you were the lookout?
- I was 11.

Did my old man smack me.
Never again. Birds and boxing.

So, Patsy, tell me about this here,
you know, outside Tommy's.

Well, I guess, I hit a guy
outside of Tommy Frumento's.

But why did that guy
start shovin' like that?

Well, you were pissin' out in front
of the coffee shop there.

No, just don't you start sayin' that.
That's everyone sayin' that.

I'd remember doin' somethin' like that.

- So, you don't remember doin' it, huh?
- I didn't do it. Now, don't start

- with this "not remembering."
- BOBBY: All right.

This is us right here, Patsy.

- PATSY: So, how's your birds doin'?
- They're good.

I gave ya your first bird.
You remember that?

Oh, yeah. I do.

I gotta get back to work.

No, Patsy.
Uh. Mike, he gave you the day off.

What do I got the day off for?

We're gonna go see a doctor.

No, sir. No.

They see an old pug like me,

they figure they're gonna
make a few bucks.

Right away,
they start findin' things wrong

- where there ain't even nothin' wrong.
- Look, Patsy, I...

I wanna see that you're examined,

- all right?
- I'm not gonna go see a doctor!

- Now, that's enough!
- All right.

I gotta get to work.

All right. (SNIFFS)

But, see, Patsy, um, we still
gotta go over back to my precinct,

you know, 'cause, um, the DA,
he's gotta sign off on your case.

I thought I just got
some kind of a ticket.

Yeah, but the DA,
he's still's gotta sign off, you know?

I don't mean to be irritable.
I know you're tryin' to help.

- No, I know.
- PATSY: Too many punches.

- BOBBY: It's all right.
- I do better with birds.

(CHUCKLES) Come on.

MALE ANNOUNCER OVER RADIO: The FBI
has now confirmed earlier reports

that the man abducted today
on East Tenth Street was Bernard Kaiser,

publisher of American Business Magazine,

and that the Bureau
has taken control of the case.

That's your team they're talkin'
about there, uh, Agent Sipowicz.

Yeah, say goodbye to Bernard Kaiser.

DIANE: You should've seen them come
sweepin' into Kaiser's office.

Took our equipment off the phones
like we were janitors.

The one thing those guys are good at
is usin' their elbows.

Well, my reason for optimism
with the victim, uh,

the grab was fairly well-executed,
and the family is willing to pay ransom.

It's the FBI, Medavoy. The guy croaks.

Eh. Differing opinions.
That's why there's chocolate and vanilla.

You wanna back up
that good feeling you got?

- Mm?
- Amazing. Same when I was in Vice.

Every time we staked out OTB,
guys wound up bettin'.

Twenty buck mind bet, the guy makes it.

- A mind bet?
- An imaginary bet.

How about 50 actual dollars?

All right. Twenty-five real dollars
as... as a vote against negative thinking.

He spotted him.

Excuse me. I'm lookin'
for Wallin's pharmacy?

- Nah, I don't know any...
- DIANE: Around here somewhere?

- No. No. Hey... hey, what's goin' on?
- We're goin' for a ride.

- Where we goin'?
- We're goin' to the station house.

- Let me get my bet down.
- No.

- Just do a mind bet.
- A what?

- Yeah, he is. Okay.
- PATSY: I had some bruise and battering,

- but I never once lost my teeth.
- Thanks very much.

PATSY: I boxed Archie Moore.

I fought Harold Johnson.

- Both title holders.
- Is that so?

Yeah. (LAUGHS) If he thought
he could make a buck,

my manager would put me in
against anybody. Archie Moore?

Harold Johnson? I weighed 154.
They were light heavies.

- Ah. I gave Bobby his first bird.
- That's right.

Them birds keepin' you outta trouble,
Bobby?

Yeah, they are.

Listen, um, that DA
is gonna come here in a few minutes

- to do that interview for your release.
- (GRUNTS)

- They gotta do that, huh?
- Yeah,

- In this type of release they got to.
- ANDY: Bobby, uh...

Hey, excuse me one minute, Patsy.

This skell might have somethin' to do
with Kaiser gettin' grabbed.

- You wanna be an FBI guy?
- I thought you were the FBI guy?

With the other moron.
This guy already saw my shield.

Yeah, all right.

- Hey, Diane.
- Huh?

Patsy Ferrara.

- Who taught you birds?
- Yeah. He's, uh...

he's gettin' confused.

I'm havin' Doc Mondzac
come up here to examine him.

Patsy thinks Mondzac's a DA.

- Now I'm confused.
- Well, Patsy won't talk to doctors, right?

So, uh, he got jammed up in the 6-4.
So, I told him that the DA

has to come up here to talk to him

- before they let him go.
- DIANE: Oh.

- BOBBY: Can you do me a favor?
- DIANE: Uh-huh.

Can you keep an eye on him until, uh,

- this doc comes up here?
- Yeah, sure.

- I'd like to get to know him anyhow.
- Yeah, 'cause I gotta be an FBI agent

for Andy. Patsy.

I gotta do somethin' for a few minutes.
This is Detective Russell.

- Diane. Pleased to meet you, Patsy.
- How do you do? Patsy Ferrara.

Uh. Diane's gonna stay
with you for a while

until, uh, DA Mondzac comes
and does this interview.

- PATSY: All right. Bye.
- DIANE: Mm-hmm.

- I'm just talkin' to this young lady here.
- Patsy fought Archie Moore.

That DA I gotta talk to, uh...

is he a jerk?

- No. No.
- (PATSY CHUCKLING)

He's one of our best guys.

- James Sampson...
- Robert Simone.

He's aware
that this is a federal situation?

- Th... this is so crazy.
- BOBBY: Our information

is that you're connected
to the Kaiser abduction, James.

I don't even know who that is.
I got seven dollars in my pocket.

For God's sakes, I'm a clubfoot.
How am I gonna kidnap somebody?

- (SIGHS) You know Steven Richards?
- (SCOFFS)

Son of a bitch. Steve Richards
gave me to you guys?

Why would he do that?

All I did with Steve Richards
was buy a cell phone.

Now, what kinda trouble
is he tryin' to beat?

You made an abduction call
off of that phone?

- JAMES: I didn't make calls. I sold it.
- Was it a cloned phone?

Yeah, it could've been.

I sold it to a guy from OTB.

A guy named Pete.
I don't know his last name.

- Is he there all the time?
- No, off and on. Uh.

He said he was lookin' to buy a phone.
I knew Steve moved phones.

I had a couple bucks in my pocket.
I figured I'd get in the middle.

(SCOFFS) Lot of good it did me.
I tapped out at the Meadowlands.

You know
what the stolen phone number was, James?

JAMES: I don't know dick.

I bought the phone from Steve
at the Greek's. I sold it at the OTB.

Ah, take off, Jimmy.

You tell Steve he's a scumbag,
puttin' me in this type of jackpot.

Yeah, yeah. He'll be filled with remorse.

- (SIGHS)
- (DOOR CLOSING)

Somethin' in this,

if I can get through the manure
in that Steve's head.

BOBBY: Good night.

You guys'll work liaison

with the Bureau tomorrow
on that nine o'clock ransom call?

- Yeah, okay.
- Maybe we can detail their cars.

- How's it goin'?
- Hi.

(SIGHS)

- Where's Patsy?
- Um. He left.

- BOBBY: He left?
- I didn't wanna try to stop him, Bobby.

- He was really upset.
- He made you for a doc?

No. But he was very agitated

and anxious. And after we talked
a little while, he walked out.

I'm afraid your concerns
about senility are probably justified.

I found a way to have him try to tell me
the month, the president's name.

His short-term memory
is definitely impaired.

Oh, man.

PET scan of his brain
will give a definitive diagnosis,

but as a practical matter,

I think it's safe to assume
that it's early Alzheimer's.

- All right. Thanks for comin' up, Doc.
- DR. MONDZAC: Sure. Look.

This gerontologist at NYU is doing
some funded research.

Now, maybe Patsy can get in the program.

- Thanks a lot.
- DR. MONDZAC: Sure.

- Buh-bye.
- Bye.

- Oh, tell James Martinez hello.
- Yeah, I will.

DR. MONDZAC:
Put some ice on that shoulder.

Clean underwear tomorrow.
We're goin' to the bureau.

- Yeah, Andy. Goodnight, man.
- DIANE: Goodnight.

- What's the matter with your shoulder?
- Uh, Patsy

- repositioned me in the coffee room.
- He laid hands on you?

He just moved me so he could get out.
He didn't mean any harm.

I don't... I don't know
what I'm gonna do about this guy.

People get old, Bobby. They get sick.

My dad wasn't really talkative, you know?

I mean, he worked really hard, and...

he'd come home after work, and...

he'd always be fixin' things.

Patsy, he, um...

he'd been retired, like, ten years
when I first started knowin' him.

- Retired from fighting?
- BOBBY: Yeah.

He had this job in the Parks Department.

You know, people would pull the slats
outta the concrete benches in the park.

And the anchors,
they would come out, too...

- Mm.
- ...that held the wood to the concrete.

Patsy is the guy
that would fix those anchors.

I'd stand there,
would hold the chisel for him,

and he would hammer in these new holes,
and screw in those slats.

He let me talk to him all the time.
And he would talk back, you know?

And then we'd have our sandwiches,
our lunch. And... and then afterwards...

when he was done, you know, we'd go up
on the roof and fly his birds.

I just wish there was somethin'
I could do, you know?

Let's go home.

(MELANCHOLY MUSIC PLAYING)

You know, he's gonna forget
he ever showed me those birds.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

All right.
Once the drop point's established,

we'll deploy two-man units
along appropriate access points.

- In addition...
- What was the beep?

(SIGHS) Martinez.
Him and Greg are bringin' Steve up.

FREDERICK: Our oversight will be discreet.

(CLEARS THROAT) Uh. Local component
understand their roles?

The subjects say
they'll execute Kaiser if they see

one police helicopter or radio car.

- (TELEPHONE RINGING)
- FREDERICK: Here we go.

FREDERICK: Go ahead.

Yes.

Uh. Y... yes, I have.

11:30.

Uh. A... all right. I can make that work.

Uh. H... how will Mr. Kaiser be released?

- Is he safe? I... is he in good cond...
- (DIAL TONE RINGING)

The drop's on the Triborough Bridge...

At the Bronx,
Upstate New York, bound toll plaza.

There's a note
with Kaiser's location at the drop site.

All right. Let's break down by teams.
We'll reconvene. Money team's here.

(OVERLAPPING CHATTER)

Regular beehive.

BOBBY: Andy.

- Agent Sipowicz. How's it goin'?
- Where you been, Steve?

Ate Thai food last night.
Got food poisoning.

Thought it was curtains, man.

All this for Jimmy Steps,
all this activity?

- No, Steve.
- Agent!

It's not from Jimmy Steps.

- Agent!
- You didn't hear that guy callin'

from no pay phone, Steve.
What you did was sell him a phone

- with a cloned number.
- Oh, boy.

This is one more chapter
how Steve spends his life

- steppin' on his johnson.
- BOBBY: See, Steve.

You could have earned on this.

All you had to do
was tell us a straight story...

on how that phone
was involved in the grab.

I couldn't... I couldn't give up
my uncle. My uncle...

- Your uncle did the kidnapping?
- No, he just

- traffics somewhat in phones.
- Then shut up about your uncle.

Steve, we need to know how you knew...

that the phone was bein' used
in the kidnapping, all right?

I fabricated overhearin' Jimmy
'cause I was uncertain about particulars,

but I knew that phone was involved.

- And I wanna know how.
- (BREATHES SHAKILY)

All right. I'm at Our Lady Queen of Peace

- yesterday, the church?
- Oh...

I was. I was talkin' to Father DiLeo.
Two FBI guys come in, right?

- They say they're tracin' a c...
- GREG: Psst. Psst.

(STEVE GRUNTING)

Tracin' a cell phone
that was registered to the parish.

They say the ransom call
was made on that phone.

You and your uncle cloned a priest's phone
and sold it to some skell?

No harm to the father.

They don't charge you
for fraudulent calls.

Anyway, I'm watchin' TV, right,

and I see on the news,
it's this big-shot guy that got grabbed.

And I'm thinkin',
"Hey, you know, this is it.

"This is, you know,
for one time in my life.

"Steve Richards got a little...
a little something,"

which is, I know who had that phone,
which was Jimmy Steps.

- And now, you're tellin' me Steps sold it.
- You know a guy named Pete from OTB?

Oh, Pete Bielski?

- That's who Steps sold it to?
- You know him?

Well, yeah. Um. No... no, you know,
he's not exactly a regular. I know him.

- If you'll take your seats, please.
- Hey, Andy.

All right. Uh. Run the guy through BCI.

- Pete Bielski?
- Yeah.

If that zeros out,
take Steve over to the OTB.

- See if he can pick him out.
- Yeah, okay. Let's go, Steve.

I'm surprised Pete's involved.
He's wrapped up pretty tight, Detective.

Uh. Agent Sipowicz, I'm still
in line for compensation, right?

Come on. Let's go, all right?

Depends, if they count on brain death.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

A hell of a setup, isn't it?

You get the out-of-town
ball games on this thing?

BILL: There's a car approaching.
Looks like it could be our guy.

- I'm opening the trunk...
- Here we go.

- BILL: ...getting the suitcases.
- All right. This is it.

Here we go. Stand by all units.

BILL: I'm putting the suitcases
into his trunk now.

- What the hell?
- BILL: He's makin' a U-turn!

MALE VOICE: I'm switching
to southbound camera, lane eight.

BILL: He's headed back the other way

towards the toll booth!
Who we got southbound?

- Look. Look at this. Look at this.
- BILL: Repeating.

Subject's headed southbound.

All right. Can you get us
a license plate number

- on that subject vehicle?
- BILL: Yeah.

Uh. New York plates,
M-E-D-7-5-1. Repeating.

- Michael, Eddie, David, 7-5-1.
- (TELEPHONE RINGING)

All right. Initiate a pursuit.

- Available units to respond. Southbound.
- Yeah, okay.

That tag number's been
out of use for five years.

BILL: You got somebody
pickin' 'em up southbound?

All right. Raise your local PD units
for a southbound pursuit.

It'll take 'em a few minutes.
They're clear of the area.

Yeah, we didn't want to put
the victim in jeopardy.

MALE OFFICER: Units four and five
going through toll plaza now.

FREDERICK:
Do you have an eyeball on them?

MALE OFFICER: No, we don't.

Put the bullet right here.

- It's the humane thing to do.
- How do you get the heat?

It's the FBI's screwup. All we could do
was stand around scratchin' our nuts.

Why did we give it up to the FBI?

Gotta be a fall guy for that, right? Hmm.

No word on the victim?
No message where to find him?

- Nothing'.
- We might have a lead on the cell phone

- used for the ransom call.
- How live?

It's a cloned phone.
There's the hump that sold it.

We think it got moved to the kidnappers
a couple of skells down the line.

Yeah, so far, we got it
traced to a Pete Bielski.

Uh. BCI kicked him out with two collars.
Uh. We got his address from the DMV.

- Roust him.
- We gotta notify the FBI?

Screw the FBI.

- Martinez...
- Hey, sit still, Steve.

- Just wanted to...
- Just sit down. Sit down.

Agent Sipowicz, any word?

We're gonna try to grab Bielski
at his place.

If he's not there, you're gonna help us
look for him at OTB.

Oh, that's no problem.
I cleared my calendar.

Any idea if he carries a gun?

Well, that really
wouldn't be my impression. Uh.

Thumbnail? I'd describe Pete
as cautious, nervous,

- you know, a careful-type person.
- Go back and sit down.

Detective Simone, a Fat Mike called.

He said to tell you that Patsy
hadn't come to work.

(SIGHS) All right. Thanks, Donna.

- Poor man, huh? He's gettin' confused.
- Yeah.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Over here.

- (DOOR KNOCKING)
- Pete!

- PETE: Yeah?
- New York City Police.

PETE: New York City Police, huh?

- (POLICE SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE)
- (FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

- (GUN COCKS)
- (BREATHES HEAVILY)

- BOBBY: You Pete Bielski?
- Yeah. You wouldn't want the wrong guy.

- ANDY: Anybody else livin' here?
- PETE: No.

All right. Relax, Pete.
We're gonna take you

down to the station house. We wanna talk

- to you about a few things, all right?
- Nope. Nope.

Screw you guys.

Oh, good.
That's a good opening attitude, Pete.

- Come on. Let's go.
- No! I said, no!

- Hey.
- Look, I wouldn't say

anything. You don't believe that?
(BREATHES DEEPLY) Then do it here.

We'll tell you where this conversation
is gonna be, okay?

Yeah? Like Jersey,
and I wind up in the weeds?

- Here you go.
- BOBBY: Hey!

- PETE: It's not a gun. (GRUNTING)
- BOBBY: Hey!

- (BILLS THUDDING)
- That's the 2,800.

Now, I keep my mouth shut,
and I don't want the money.

Otherwise, do it here.

And tell those bastards
to go screw themselves.

- You think we're gonna shoot you.
- Yeah.

Well, who do you think sent us
to shoot you, Pete?

Those guys you sold that phone to, right?
Because you can put them with the kidnap.

Look, just stop messing
with my head, all right?

- Just do what you gotta do.
- BOBBY: Pete.

Hello? We are the cops, okay?

(CHUCKLES)

(BREATHES DEEPLY, WHIMPERS)

(SNIFFLING)

- You guys are really cops?
- Yeah.

And we're lookin' for a real guy,

got grabbed
before he turns up really dead.

All right? So, let's go over
to our real station house,

okay, Pete? Come on.

Thank God. I thought you guys
were here to kill me.

You get that feelin' a lot, huh?

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Some situation, huh, Pete?

Go away, Steve.

- Hopin' he recognizes someone. Kidnappers.
- Go away.

Offhand, Detective, Pete becomin' involved
in your misdemeanor,

does that disqualify him
from reward eligibility?

If... if we don't find the guy alive,
Steve, I wouldn't expect too many rewards

- to be passed out.
- Oh, absolutely.

'Cause, uh,
live rescue's our first priority.

First priority, gentlemen, live rescue.

Why weren't we notified
you were moving on a suspect?

Did you bring the personnel photos
from Kaiser's company?

We want to talk to the suspect
at our office.

- He can look at the photos there.
- I can't believe this.

You people blow the money transfer.

God only knows
what condition the victim's in,

- or if he's even still alive.
- This is our case.

Do I have to call the U.S. attorney
to get the suspect turned over?

- You want the U.S. attorney?
- Dial nine for an outside line.

Lieu?

It's okay.

- We got the dump on Bielski's home phone.
- Come on.

Bielski says these guys did call him
between 8:30 and 9:00 three nights ago.

Phone log has two incoming
calls around that time.

one's from his mother,
the other one's from a pay phone

outside an army post in Suffolk.
The post is abandoned.

- Let's take a look.
- We're gonna drive out there

with you, Lieutenant.

You don't wanna work out
who's gonna lead the caravan?

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

Lieu, that's the money car.

Check it out.

A couple of you guys, see if you
can get around the other side.

Lieu, this food is fresh.

BERNARD: (MUFFLED) Let me out!

Help me!

Help! I'm in here.

- Help me!
- Help me move this.

BERNARD: (MUFFLED) I'm in here!

(BOTH GRUNT)

We need the cuff key.

- (GROANS)
- Bernard Kaiser?

- Yes.
- Here we go.

- BOBBY: You all right? (GRUNTING)
- BERNARD: Yeah, I think so.

- BOBBY: Can you get up?
- Mr. Kaiser. Thank God.

- Can you stand?
- Thank God!

- Here you go. (GRUNTS)
- OFFICER: Is he injured?

Fan out. Check out
the rest of the building.

It was Kerry and Edmonds.

- Did you... did you pay the ransom?
- Yes, sir! We did.

Then they're gonna be in Bimini.

- WILLIAM: Let's get you outta here.
- Oh. (SNIFFS) Brilliant.

Clean getaway to a place
got no extradition.

Bureau's got 'em lulled
into a false sense of security.

- Get outta my face.
- Now, you put a field operation together.

Some paratroopers, couple dozen
rough terrain vehicles...

- Get away from me.
- ...AWACS, spy planes.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Hello. Congratulations.
Desk sergeant told me victim's alive.

- Congratulations. Wonderful job.
- That's right.

- Mr. Kaiser's safe, right?
- Yeah.

- Okay! Yes.
- Do me a favor, Steve, you know?

- Sit down? Right here. Good job.
- JAMES: Yes.

- You're gonna hyperventilate.
- He's safe, though, right?

- JAMES: Yeah.
- Everything's good. Congratulations.

Congratulations.
Victim's safe. Wonderful job.

- Thanks, Steve.
- STEVE: Wonderful job. Wonderful job.

Oh, Agent. Um. Are you an agent
or a detective? 'Cause...

I may have misled you
a little there, Steve.

Well, that's no problem.
Whatever your personal joke...

Well, I'm very relieved
to hear you say that.

Well, I just hope, uh, you know...
(CLEARS THROAT)

...a reward wasn't humorous,
you know, some aspect

of a reward... Um. Excuse me, sir.
How are you?

- How you doin'?
- Good.

Um. We haven't had any
really specific contact.

Although, I do recognize your authority

- from, you know, Donna, so forth.
- Yeah.

- Steve Richards. How are ya?
- How you doin', Steve?

Pleasure. Pleasure.
Curiosity on my part, just naturally, uh,

you know, where my information
was central...

You were involved with this case?

Oh, God, yes. Yes, centrally,
and if I can just find out, you know,

where I stand in terms of, you know, um...

(GASPS, EXHALES) I'm feeling
somewhat light-headed.

I really don't know when I've dined last.
I just, you know, general curiosity...

Forty grand.

Forty grand?

Forty... (SPLUTTERS)
Get outta town. Forty grand for me?

- I don't know. Maybe they were kiddin'.
- (SPLUTTERS) Kidding?

- Nah, it's real.
- It's... it's real?

(SMOOCHES) God bless you,
and this country.

Oh! That's all I have to say.
Forty thousand!

- Don't ever kiss me again, Steve.
- STEVE: I won't. I can't believe this.

- BOBBY: Steve, come here.
- STEVE: Yes.

BOBBY: Get on the other side
of the gate here.

Oh!

BOBBY: Call this guy
Crawford about the reward,

- all right?
- Yeah. Yes.

(CHUCKLES) I'm rich.

- (CHUCKLES) Can I use this phone, please?
- BOBBY: Mm-hmm.

(EXHALES, WHISPERS) Get yourself together.

- Nice goin', guys.
- Yeah, worked out good, right?

Listen, uh, I got the five,
if you wanna take off.

- BOBBY: Hey, thanks.
- Patsy Ferrara stopped by.

Oh, yeah? Did he apologize to you?

I don't think he even remembered
what happened. But, um...

said he had a bird for you.

(SCOFFS) Gimme a second.

Yeah, so, may I ask,
is that... is that reportable income?

Uh-huh.

- Great job, Andy.
- ANDY: Yeah, thanks.

- Yeah, yeah. Good work.
- ANDY: Yeah.

GREG: Hey, Andy?

(ANDY SIGHING)

So... (CHUCKLES)

...I told ya I h... h... had a feelin',
didn't I, Andy,

- that... that the... the guy'd survive?
- ANDY: Yeah, that's right.

So, uh, with him surviving, you know,
like I predicted, um...

(EXHALES)
W... we made that bet, right, Andy?

Wai... wai... wait.
Wait a second, Medavoy.

You're sayin', I helped effect the rescue

of this hostage, and in so doing,
it cost me 25 bucks?

- That's how you think it should go? Huh?
- Andy, Andy.

- ANDY: Huh?
- You knew you caught the case

- wh... when you made the bet. Am I wrong?
- (SIGHS)

- Tell... tell me if I'm wrong.
- I gotta go.

- Later, guys.
- Night.

You're absolutely right, Medavoy.

Yeah. I mean, you know,
if it had went the other way,

I'd have definitely paid the debt.

- You got any money?
- Excuse me. One second.

- You got 25 dollars?
- (COUGHS) Detective, please.

If 25 bucks you think
is all you're gettin',

wait till that reward money comes through.

- I can't take reward money.
- (RECEIVER CLATTERING)

Oh. Well, um...

I don't have any actual currency
on my person

- at this time. Maybe two somethin'...
- (COINS CLINKING)

- or two forty maybe.
- ANDY: Uh-huh.

Wait. I'm gonna write you
the biggest IOU you've ever laid eyes on.

Where's the biggest sheet
of paper you got?

I want you to take this money, Medavoy.
Purchase some Preparation H.

And I want you to shove
the change up your tushie.

GREG: Thanks, Andy.

Napkin.

Steve Richards owes Detective Sip...

How would you spell Sipowicz? S-I...

I'll just wing it.

P...

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

- Hi, Bobby.
- Hey, what's goin' on, Patsy?

I was at your work today.
Did they tell ya?

BOBBY: Yeah.

You talked to this detective here.

- How are ya, Miss?
- Hello, Patsy.

Patsy, you laid hands
on Detective Russell.

- PATSY: What?
- BOBBY: You remember that?

- (PIGEON COOING)
- Well, I apologize then. I'm sorry.

All right, Patsy.

Surprised at myself.

DIANE: Why don't you give me the keys.
I'll go up. Patsy, I'll talk to you later.

- It's a pretty bird.
- Yeah.

Yeah. I brought this over.

Bobby, is... is this your bird?

Nah. Uh-uh.

Come home with my flock.
It's got no band on it

- or nothin'. I thought maybe it's yours.
- Nope.

Gotta face some facts here, Patsy.

- You're forgetful now. That's just true.
- Ah.

BOBBY: You know, and this doctor
that I was tellin' you about,

he... he'd be willin' to work with you.

I got no money for doctors.

It's a program over at NYU, Patsy.

I don't think you're gonna have to pay
for anything.

The hell with that, Bobby. I know
what goes on in them places.

Patsy, this is happenin'
whether you admit it or not.

Now, we ought to just face that fact,
and then find out what we can do about it.

I'm gonna make that appointment for you.

Well, yeah, you probably better.

And then, you know, we start makin' lists,
you know, of places you gotta be.

- Geez.
- W... we'll buy alarms, and...

(PIGEON COOING)

Time flies, huh?

And the birds fly.

(CAGE DOOR UNLOCKING)

He'll be home before I will.

Remember I taught you that?

I remember everything, Patsy.

I'm gonna go home.

All right. I'll come by
and see you tomorrow.

PATSY: Okay. I'll be at Fat Mike's.

Okay, Patsy.
