CAN I HELP YOU?

I'M STEVEN EGAN. THIS IS MY WIFE SHERRIE.

HOW DO YOU DO?

WE THINK WE NEED TO TALK TO A DETECTIVE.

CAN I HELP YOU?

YES. I'M STEVEN EGAN. THIS IS MY WIFE SHERRIE.

I HEARD WHAT YOU SAID. YOU NEED A DETECTIVE.

OUR CHILD IS MISSING.

WE WOKE UP THIS MORNING, AND HE WAS GONE.

HE MUST HAVE GONE OUT AT SOME POINT DURING THE NIGHT.

WHY DON'T WE TALK ABOUT ALL THIS IN OUR COFFEE ROOM.

THIS IS MY PARTNER DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ.

HOW DO YOU DO?

HOW DO YOU DO?

HELLO.

SOME KIND OF REFRESHMENT?

NO, THANK YOU.

REFRESHMENT, MR. EGAN?

NO.

HERE'S A PICTURE OF MY SON.

I'M AFRAID THIS MAY BE MY FAULT.

HOW'S THAT?

NOT THAT WE HAD A FIGHT OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT.

BRIAN AND I ARE REALLY CLOSE.

WELL, WHY WOULD YOU BE SAYING

THAT YOU THINK IT MIGHT BE YOUR FAULT?

I THINK THIS IS PART OF ME TAKING HIM TO THE PARK,

THAT HE MADE A FRIEND THERE,

AND NOW HE'S GOT SOME NAIVE PETER PAN?ISH IDEA

ABOUT TAKING CARE OF THIS GUY.

AND THAT'S WHERE HE MAY HAVE GONE.

HOW OLD IS BRIAN?

HE'S JUST 8.

WHAT PARK ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?

TOMPKINS SQUARE PARK.

I WANTED BRIAN TO BE ABLE TO TRUST PEOPLE.

I THINK I'VE GOT THIS FADDISH

"UNDERSTAND EVERYONE AND TEACH YOUR KID TO UNDERSTAND EVERYONE

AND SEE THE OTHER GUY'S POINT OF VIEW..."

WHAT DOES THIS ALL HAVE TO DO WITH TOMPKINS SQUARE PARK?

HE BEFRIENDED THIS STRANGE HOMELESS GUY,

AND INSTEAD OF SAYING, "BRIAN, HE'S A PERFECTLY NICE GUY,

"AND I'M SURE THERE'S A REASON WHY HE IS THE WAY HE IS,

BUT AT THE SAME TIME, I'M NOT COMFORTABLE WITH YOUR BEING WITH HIM,"

I SAY, "GREAT," YOU KNOW?

"IT'S GREAT YOU'VE GOT A NEW FRIEND."

I'LL NEVER FORGIVE MYSELF IF SOMETHING'S HAPPENED.

WE DON'T KNOW ANYTHING'S HAPPENED.

ALL THIS CONCERN,

I EXPECT THAT YOU'VE LOOKED FOR HIM IN THE PARK.

BELIEVE ME, WE HAVE SCOURED THE PARK.

CAN YOU GIVE US A DESCRIPTION OF THIS GUY?

I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM.

YOU HAVEN'T SEEN HIM AT ALL?

I'M TELLING YOU, THIS IS MY FAULT.

WHY DON'T YOU STOP SAYING IT'S YOUR FAULT

AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS MY PARTNER'S ASKING YOU.

SIR, CAN YOU DESCRIBE THIS GUY FOR US?

I CAN GIVE YOU A PHOTOGRAPH OF BOTH OF THEM.

I DON'T THINK HE'S A DRUG USER OR A DRINKER.

IF I'D SENSED THAT,

EVEN I WOULD HAVE DRAWN THE LINE

AT BRIAN'S HAVING ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIM.

YOU KNOW HIS NAME?

I SHOULD HAVE SAID THAT. I'M SORRY. ISRAEL.

I JUST FEEL LIKE EVERY SECOND BRIAN IS NOT BEING LOOKED FOR

IS WASTED TIME.

HAS BRIAN EVER RUN AWAY BEFORE?

Mr. Egan: NEVER.

AND NEITHER OF YOU FEEL LIKE HE'S BEEN UNHAPPY RECENTLY.

MAYBE HE'S JUST ACTING OUT TO GET YOU WORRIED.

HONEY?

I DON'T FEEL HE'S BEEN UNHAPPY.

I HAVEN'T SEEN THAT.

RIGHT.

ORDINARILY THERE'S A 24?HOUR WAIT,

BUT, UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES,

WE'RE GONNA GO AHEAD AND CONTACT MISSING PERSONS.

AND YOU'LL START LOOKING FOR THIS ISRAEL?

YEAH,

WE'LL DO THAT.

CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE ME A MINUTE?

SURE. ALL THE TIME YOU NEED.

THE GUY TALKS TOO MUCH,

AND HE DON'T TALK ABOUT THE RIGHT THINGS.

THEIR KID'S STILL MISSING, ANDY.

D.O.A. BY THE WILLIAMSBURG BRIDGE.

HOW OLD?

20?YEAR?OLD FEMALE.

I THINK ME AND ANDY GOT ONE HERE, BOSS.

Mr. Egan: THANK YOU.

HOMICIDE BY WILLIAMSBURG BRIDGE.

YOU DON'T GIVE THAT PRICK A CHANCE BEING INVOLVED?

I GIVE HIM A CHANCE.

Man: OFFICER.

THEY FOUND HESTER MURDERED.

WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

HERSCHEL ROSENBLATT.

IT'S LOOKS LIKE SHE'S BEEN RAPED, ALSO.

MY POOR SISTER.

ALL RIGHT. GIVE US A MINUTE, HERSCHEL.

CONSTRUCTION WORKER FOUND HER THIS MORNING.

WHO TOLD THE HASIDS?

THE BROTHER HADN'T HEARD FROM HER FOR 3 DAYS.

I GUESS THEY WERE OUT LOOKING FOR HER

AND HEARD WE FOUND HER BODY OVER THE POLICE MONITOR.

BIG GIRL.

YEAH. HE SAID SHE WAS REAL SELF?CONSCIOUS ABOUT THAT.

SHE WALKED THIS BRIDGE EVERY DAY FOR EXERCISE.

DEFENSIVE CUTS ON THE ARMS.

SHE DIDN'T GO DOWN EASY.

LOOKS LIKE A HALF?ASSED TRY

AT SETTING THE BODY ON FIRE.

Uniform: YOU SAW THE BOTTLE.

YEAH. YOU DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S REAL,

OR THEM TRYING TO SELL THE SEX ASPECT.

Herschel: THIS IS MY FATHER.

ALL THE PICTURES. ALL THE TOUCHING.

WE'RE SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

WE CAN'T JUST CLAIM HER BODY?

OUR RELIGION ORDERS PROMPT BURIAL.

NO, WE CAN'T PERMIT THAT JUST YET.

THE MEDICAL EXAMINER HAS TO LOOK OVER THE BODY.

IT'S A REQUIRED PROCEDURE.

I'VE DONE READING ON YOUR BRANCH OF JUDAISM

CONNECTED WITH ANOTHER CASE.

I'LL ABSOLUTELY REQUEST AN AUTOPSY

WITH MINIMAL INTRUSION ON HESTER

CONSISTENT WITH WHAT THE CORONER NEEDS TO DO.

LET'S GET YOU IN A CAR AND GET YOU A RIDE HOME.

THANK YOU.

COME WITH ME, SIR.

DON'T TOUCH THEM, DIANE.

I WASN'T GOING TO, GREG.

I KNOW THEY DON'T LIKE STRANGE WOMEN TOUCHING THEM.

I, UH, READ UP ON THEM

WHEN ANDY AND I WERE WORKING THIS TORAH CASE.

UH, THE HASIDIM HAVE SOME VERY INTERESTING WRINKLES TO THEIR SECT.

YOU DON'T WANT ME DIPPING TOO DEEP

INTO MY STRANGE INFORMATION FUND, HUH?

IT JUST DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THIS HOMICIDE

HAD A BIG RELIGIOUS ASPECT.

NO, NO. THIS DON'T LOOK FAITH?RELATED.

SORRY.

HEY. SOMETIMES I BORE MYSELF.

IT'S THE HOMELESS GUY

THE MISSING KID'S FATHER WAS TALKING TO US ABOUT.

HASN'T SAID A WORD TO US SINCE WE PICKED HIM UP.

WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT'S ABOUT?

DON'T SEEM LIKE AN ACT,

BUT YOU'D THINK THE FATHER WOULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING.

I DON'T KNOW.

YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT NOTHING TO DRINK?

BUT YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M ASKING YOU?

SHOW ME WHAT I ASKED YOU.

CAN YOU WRITE, ISRAEL?

WRITE YOUR NAME DOWN HERE.

"ISRAEL."

DID YOU PRINT THAT, OR DID SOMEONE ELSE?

HE'S ASKING YOU, CAN YOU PRINT?

IF YOU CAN PRINT, PRINT SOMETHING.

ALL RIGHT. TAKE IT EASY. NO ONE'S GONNA HIT YOU.

WE JUST WANNA KNOW IF YOU CAN WRITE,

IF YOU CAN ANSWER OUR QUESTIONS.

YOU WANT YOUR BOOK?

I THINK HE HAD A BIBLE.

THIS?

WHAT?

WHAT'S THIS? WHAT'S THIS SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

"IT STOOD UPON 12 OXEN,

"3 LOOKING TOWARD THE NORTH

"AND 3 LOOKING TOWARD THE WEST

"AND 3 LOOKING TOWARD THE SOUTH

"AND 3 LOOKING TOWARD THE EAST.

"AND THE SEA WAS SET ABOVE UPON THEM,

AND ALL THEIR HINDER PARTS WERE INWARD."

THAT'S WHAT YOU WANTED US TO LOOK AT?

THAT DON'T MEAN NOTHING.

THIS IS ABOUT OXEN. THAT'S WHAT YOU WANTED US TO READ?

HEY!

A KID IS MISSING NAMED BRIAN.

DO YOU KNOW WHO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT?

DO YOU KNOW WHERE BRIAN IS?

BUT YOU KNOW WHO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

BRIAN'S A LITTLE BOY. DO YOU KNOW WHERE HE IS, ISRAEL?

WHEN'D YOU SEE HIM LAST? DID YOU SEE HIM TODAY?

YESTERDAY?

WHAT, 3 DAYS AGO? YOU SAW HIM 3 DAYS AGO.

WHO WAS HE WITH?

WAS HE WITH HIS MOTHER OR HIS FATHER?

ONE FOR THE MOTHER. 2 FOR THE FATHER.

HOW ABOUT YESTERDAY?? HIS MOTHER OR HIS FATHER?

YOU DIDN'T SEE HIM YESTERDAY.

ISRAEL, IS BRIAN ALIVE?

I DON'T THINK HE'S ACTING.

OH, HE'S HALF WACKY, BUT YOU GET KIND OF A HARMLESS HIT.

WHICH I DON'T THINK HE'S ACTING.

Bobby: WHAT WAS THAT WITH THE BIBLE?

NOTHING. I THINK IT'S LIKE A SECURITY BLANKET.

THIS GUY, HE POINTED TO SOME MESSAGE IN HIS BIBLE ABOUT OXEN,

BUT NEITHER OF US FELT LIKE IT MEANT ANYTHING.

DO YOU THINK HE'S INVOLVED WITH THE KID?

HE KNOWS THE KID. HE SAID SO.

SO HE'S NOT A MUTE.

I MEAN HE INDICATED HE KNOWS HIM.

YEAH. HE HASN'T SPOKE YET.

AND WE DON'T THINK THAT'S AN ACT?

HE MAY BE ABLE TO SPEAK,

BUT I DON'T THINK THAT HE'S HIDING ANYTHING BY NOT SPEAKING.

YEAH. HE'S TRYING TO ANSWER OUR QUESTIONS.

LIEUTENANT.

FANCY.

HE DIDN'T GRAB THIS KID?

I DON'T THINK HE DID.

BODY OF AN 8?YEAR?OLD BOY.

OH, GOD. OH, GOD!

I DON'T WANNA WORK THIS.

I SEEN TOO MUCH OF THIS NOW.

EVERYBODY ELSE IS WORKING THE OTHER HOMICIDE?

WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

I CAN TAKE SOMEBODY OFF THE OTHER.

I JUST HAD A MOMENTARY FEELING.

WHAT IS THIS, A KANGAROO COURT?

WHERE WE GOING?

VACANT LOT.

AROUND THE CORNER FROM TOMPKINS SQUARE.

THANK YOU.

THAT MISSING BOY

DETECTIVES SIMONE AND SIPOWICZ WERE LOOKING FOR,

HE TURNED UP MURDERED.

James: OH, GOD.

WANT TO RUN OURS FOR THE BOSS?

SURE.

THE MISSING BOY WAS THE D. O. A., HUH, BOSS?

YEAH. SOME UNIFORM PICKED UP A GIRL

TRYING TO BUY GAS WITH A CREDIT CARD

ISSUED TO HESTER ROSENBLATT.

THAT'S OUR D. O. A.

JILL'S GOT THE GIRL THEY COLLARED IN 3.

EXCUSE ME.

HEY.

[SPEAKING SPANISH]

THAT'S NOT GONNA DO ANY GOOD WITH US, EDIS.

HUMP A DOORKNOB, HOW ABOUT, LADY?

YOU EVER NOTICE PEOPLE THAT USE LANGUAGE LIKE THAT

LIVE LOUSY LIVES IN GENERAL, EDIS? HUH?

WHY DON'T YOU CUT ME A DAMN BREAK?

$10 WORTH OF GAS?? WHO CARES?

WE WANT TO KNOW WHERE YOU GOT HESTER ROSENBLATT'S CREDIT CARD.

MY MOTHER HAD IT UNDER HER MATTRESS WHERE SHE HIDES EVERYTHING.

LIKE I WASN'T GONNA LOOK THERE RIGHT OFF.

WHAT'S YOUR MOTHER'S NAME?

LUPE CHAVEZ.

THE BOTH HER AND HER BOYFRIEND ARE JUNKIES,

ALWAYS STEALING STUFF.

YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR MOM IS RIGHT NOW?

I KNOW HER HANGOUTS.

IF YOU HELP US PUT A NET ON HER,

WE'LL FORGET ABOUT THE 10 BUCKS.

WHAT DO YOU SAY?

I GOT NO LOYALTY TO HER.

SHE LEFT ME IN THE STREET A LONG TIME AGO.

OK. SO LET'S GO, THEN.

WE WANT TO TELL YOU SOMETHING, ISRAEL.

BEFORE WE TELL YOU, WE NEED YOU TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING.

BOTH OF US UNDERSTAND

SOMEONE'S EMOTIONS CARRYING THEM AWAY.

WE SEE THAT ALL THE TIME.

AND IT'S NOT SOMETHING ANYONE'S ANGRY ABOUT OR WHERE WE DISAPPROVE.

YOU SEE, PART OF OUR JOB

IS WHERE IF SOMEONE NEEDS HELP,

IF THEIR EMOTIONS HAVE CARRIED THEM AWAY, PART OF OUR JOB

IS STARTING THAT PROCESS.

NOW, JUST AS AN EXAMPLE THAT BEING CARRIED AWAY

ISN'T SOMETHING THAT WE HAVEN'T SEEN BEFORE,

DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ WANTS TO SHOW YOU SOME MAGAZINES.

THESE ARE MAGAZINES THAT IN THE COURSE OF OUR JOB

WE COME IN CONTACT WITH.

WHAT'S IN THERE WE'RE NOT UNFAMILIAR WITH

AND WE UNDERSTAND ABOUT.

AND IF SOMEONE WERE TO GO FURTHER THAN THAT...

WHERE THEIR EMOTIONS WOULD CARRY THEM AWAY...

WE UNDERSTAND THAT, TOO.

[WHIMPERING]

LOOK AT THESE, HUH? YOU LIKE YOUNG BOYS?

HUH? HMM? HMM?

[WAILING]

BRIAN'S DEAD, ISRAEL.

WE JUST FOUND HIM DEAD.

[CRYING]

DID YOU DO IT?

[WHIMPERING AND WAILING]

DID YOU DO IT WITH YOUR EMOTIONS OUT OF CONTROL?

[WAILING]

MR. AND MRS. EGAN, THANKS FOR COMING BACK IN AGAIN.

IS THERE ANY NEWS?

Simone: THERE IS SOME NEWS, YES.

WHY DON'T WE GO TALK IN THIS INTERVIEW ROOM.

IF YOU COULD JUST FOLLOW DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ.

PLEASE, IF YOU KNOW SOMETHING, WE WANT TO KNOW.

WE DID RECOVER THE BODY OF A YOUNG BOY THIS MORNING

IN A...LOT

NEAR TOMPKINS SQUARE PARK.

OH, NO...

IS IT BRIAN?

ARE YOU, UH, ABLE TO LOOK AT A PHOTOGRAPH?

[CRYING]

YES, OK.

YOU WANT TO PREPARE YOURSELF.

I UNDERSTAND.

[SOBBING]

THAT'S HIM.

THAT'S BRIAN. OH, GOD.

OH, NO!

OH, NO...

[SOBBING]

WHO DID THIS?

WAS IT THAT HOMELESS LUNATIC?

WE HAVE ISRAEL IN CUSTODY NOW.

DID HE CONFESS?

YOU WANT TO TAKE A MINUTE WITH YOUR WIFE, MR. EGAN?

I WANT TO KNOW IF YOU'VE ARRESTED THE BASTARD WHO DID THIS?

HE, UH, HASN'T BEEN ARRESTED YET,

BUT LIKE I SAY, HE IS IN CUSTODY,

AND WE ARE QUESTIONING HIM.

DID HE DO IT?

DOES HE ADMIT THAT HE DID IT?

WHERE DID YOU FIND BRIAN?

IN WHAT KIND OF PROXIMITY TO TOMPKINS SQUARE PARK?

HE WAS, UH, FOUND IN A VACANT LOT

AROUND THE CORNER FROM THE PARK.

PROBABLY NOT IN THE PARK,

BECAUSE THEY CLEAR THAT PARK OF VAGRANTS EVERY NIGHT.

AND WAS BRIAN SEXUALLY VIOLATED?

YES, HE WAS.

[SHERRIE CRYING AND MOANING]

DID ISRAEL EVER TALK WITH YOU?

I DON'T THINK HE TALKS.

BUT THAT'S PART OF WHAT DREW BRIAN TO HIM,

THIS BIG SHAMBLING CREATURE WHO DIDN'T SPEAK.

DID THAT DRAW YOU TO HIM?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WELL, THIS BIG, GENTLE GUY,

DID THAT REASSURE YOU THAT IT WAS ALL RIGHT

FOR BRIAN TO PLAY WITH HIM?

I...

I MUST HAVE GIVEN HIM THE MESSAGE IT WAS SAFE TO BE THERE.

[MOANING]

AND FOR THAT, I WILL NEVER FORGIVE MYSELF.

EXCUSE US.

DID, UH, DO YOU GUYS NEED ANYTHING?

CAN YOU GET US OUR SON BACK?

THIS TWISTED BASTARD'S GONNA LEAD US BY OUR NOSES

HOW TO MAKE THIS CASE.

SHUT UP, ANDY.

YOU DON'T THINK THIS GUY'S INVOLVED IN THIS?

I THINK HE'S INVOLVED, AND I THINK HE SMELLS THAT HE'S A SUSPECT.

HOW ABOUT SETTING THIS KID UP TO MEET THIS GUY, HUH?

HOW ABOUT SETTING UP THAT??THAT MUTE BASTARD FOR THE FRAME?

ANDY, HE HAS THOUGHT THIS THROUGH. HE IS VERY SMART.

AS SMART AS HE IS, HE'S NOT GOING TO LET US

GO TO BAT WITH HIM A MILLION TIMES.

ALL RIGHT, LOOK.

WE GO OUTSIDE FOR A MINUTE AND CLEAR OUR HEADS.

WE COME BACK WITH SOME SOFT DRINKS

SO THESE PEOPLE WON'T THINK WE'VE BEEN TALKING WITH THEM OUTSIDE??

I'M SORRY. WE NEED TO GO.

UH??UH, DON'T GO YET.

C?CAN WE JUST TALK WITH YOU

JUST A COUPLE OF MINUTES MORE?

MY WIFE IS DEVASTATED. WE NEED TO GO.

SURE.

W?WE'RE VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

CAN WE TALK AGAIN MAYBE LATER THIS AFTERNOON?

I'LL SEE WHAT THE SITUATION IS.

I THINK YOU HAVE SOMEONE YOU SHOULD BE TALKING TO.

WELL, WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT.

WE'RE DEFINITELY GOING TO BE LOOKING AT HIM.

MRS. EGAN, I'M??I'M SO SORRY.

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO LOSE A CHILD.

NO, MA'AM, I DON'T.

I'M VERY SORRY.

[BREATHING HARD]

I LET HIM SEE THAT I LIKED HIM.

I SCREWED THIS UP.

I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE WORKED THIS.

I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE WORKED THIS.

THIS ABOUT MY DAUGHTER EDIS?

SHE DO SOMETHING STUPID?

GOT CAUGHT USING SOME CREDIT CARDS

SHE SAID SHE FOUND UNDER YOUR BED.

THE WOMAN WHOSE NAME WAS ON THE CREDIT CARDS

WAS FOUND DEAD THIS MORNING, LUPE.

NOW, RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE YOU KILLED HER.

HEY, WHY COULDN'T IT HAVE BEEN EDIS KILLED HER?

SHE'S WHO HAD THE CREDIT CARDS.

EDIS DIDN'T KILL THAT WOMAN, LUPE,

AND PROBABLY YOU DIDN'T EITHER.

GET SMART.

THIS A BIG?TIME CASE FOR YOU, RIGHT?

'CAUSE I SAW IT ON THE TV.

RIGHT. THAT'S MAINLY 'CAUSE THE BODY WAS FOUND ON A BRIDGE.

GOOD VISUALS.

SO I COULD GET A WALK

IF I BROUGHT COOPERATION?

WELL, WE COULD TALK ABOUT SOME TYPE OF ARRANGEMENT.

YOU KNOW, MAYBE I GOT TO STOP PROTECTING HIM.

YOUR BOYFRIEND?

VICTOR.

HE'S A JUNKIE.

HE USUALLY JUST DOES ROBBERIES, BUT HE WENT FURTHER THIS TIME.

HE KILLED THE GIRL.

VICTOR DONE ROBBERIES BEFORE AT THE BRIDGE

WITH NO PROBLEM.

WITH THE JEWISH GIRL, IT GOES WRONG.

SHE'S HEAVY, YOU KNOW, AND PRETTY STRONG, FIGHTS BACK.

IT ENDS UP WITH VICTOR HAVING TO KILL HER AGAINST HIS WILL.

VICTOR TOLD YOU THIS?

HE WAS SCARED. HE NEEDED HELP.

HE WAS WORRIED YOU'D CONNECT THE MURDER

TO THE ROBBERIES HE'D DONE THERE.

I WANT A NEW LIFE, BUT THEN VICTOR GOES AND DOES THIS,

MAKES A MURDERER OUT OF HIMSELF.

I GOTTA DRAW A LINE, YOU KNOW?

WHERE IS VICTOR NOW, LUPE?

HE'S GETTING US PLANE TICKETS TO PUERTO RICO

WHERE MY GRANDMA IS.

WE'RE SUPPOSED TO LEAVE TONIGHT.

WHERE'S HE GETTING THE TICKETS?

I KNOW THE PLACE.

YOU'RE GOING WITH US,

POINT HIM OUT TO US.

YEAH. I CAN ACCEPT THAT.

LET ME START GOING THROUGH 61s, ROBBERIES ON THE BRIDGE

WE CAN MAYBE PUT ON VICTOR.

LET'S GO.

COME ON.

YEAH, I GOT IT ALL.

THANKS A LOT.

HI.

HOW'S IT GOING?

WADING OUR WAY THROUGH THE SCUMMERS

ON THIS HASIDIC GIRL'S MURDER.

HOW ABOUT YOU?

CRIME SCENE SAYS

OUR KID DEFINITELY WAS KILLED SOMEWHERES ELSE AND MOVED,

AND THAT HE SHOWED SIGNS OF ANAL SCARRING.

ARE THE PARENTS COMING BACK?

LAWYERED UP.

ANYWAYS...

ANYWAYS, WHAT?

ANYWAYS, DIANE WAS ASKING HOW THE CASE WAS GOING.

THAT LITTLE BOY WAS MOVED,

AND THEY THINK HE HAD BEEN VIOLATED OVER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.

NO SEMEN.

WHEN THE PARENTS GET HERE,

YOU MAKE A SHOW OUT OF DROPPING ME FROM THE INVESTIGATION.

YOU'RE TELLING THE FATHER WHATEVER I WAS THINKING,

HIM MAYBE BEING INVOLVED, BOBBY DIDN'T FEEL THAT WAY,

AND HIS POINT OF VIEW WINS OUT.

DON'T OVERSELL IT WITH HIM.

YOU KNOW HOW TO DO IT.

I TIPPED THE GUY I LIKED HIM.

YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU DID THAT OR NOT.

WE KNOW.

ANYWAY...MAYBE DIANE SPLITS THE MOTHER OFF.

DETECTIVES.

FOLKS, THANKS FOR COMING BACK IN.

DANIEL DAVIS. I'M REPRESENTING THE EGANS.

HOW DO YOU DO, SIR? THIS IS MY BOSS LIEUTENANT FANCY.

HOW DO YOU DO?

I'M SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

WE'RE GRATEFUL YOU'RE CONTINUING TO HELP US.

THE EGANS HAVE SOME IDEAS

ABOUT FOLLOWING UP ON THIS HOMELESS MAN

THAT THEY FEEL IS INVOLVED.

WE'LL BRING YOU UP TO SPEED ON THAT, AND, UH,

THIS IS DETECTIVE RUSSELL. SHE'LL BE TALKING WITH YOU NOW

ALONG WITH, UM, DETECTIVE SIMONE.

MR. AND MRS. EGAN.

DIANE RUSSELL. HOW DO YOU DO?

WHY DON'T WE GO IN THE COFFEE ROOM.

HOW YOU HOLDING UP?

FINE. THANK YOU FOR ASKING.

Russell: MAY I KNOW YOUR FIRST NAME?

SHERRIE.

SHERRIE, I'M SO SORRY ABOUT BRIAN.

ANYWHERE YOU LIKE, FOLKS.

DON'T YOU WANT TO TALK TO US

IN THAT ROOM WITH THE CELL?

WELL, MR. EGAN, YOU KNOW, EVERY DETECTIVE

HAS HIS OWN WAY OF CONDUCTING AN INVESTIGATION.

UH, I REALLY DIDN'T THINK IT WAS 100% APPROPRIATE

TO TALK WITH YOU AND YOUR WIFE IN THERE TO BEGIN WITH.

SO I GATHER DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ IS NO LONGER IN CHARGE.

I'M SURE THAT YOU'RE AWARE IT'S BEEN, UH, VERY DIFFICULT

TO TRY AND COMMUNICATE WITH THIS ISRAEL.

BUT WE HAVE ESTABLISHED A RAPPORT.

HAVE YOU CONFRONTED HIM?

NO, WE HAVEN'T CONFRONTED HIM AS OF YET.

WE'RE HOPING TO SAVE THAT FOR SOMETHING, UH, MORE PRODUCTIVE.

BUT WE'RE BEGINNING TO GET BACK SOME OF THE RESULTS

FROM THE LAB TESTS.

WHAT DO THOSE SHOW?

NO SURPRISES THERE, SIR.

BEATING AND SEXUAL ASSAULT.

ACTUALLY, WE'RE HOPING TO GET

SOME MORE SPECIFIC DETAILS FROM YOU

SO THAT WE CAN GO AT THIS ISRAEL WITH.

HAS HE INDICATED TO YOU WHERE HE SLEEPS?

BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, THEY THROW THEM OUT OF THE PARK AT NIGHT.

YEAH, WELL, WE PICKED HIM UP IN THE PARK,

AND HE HAD HIS POSSESSIONS WITH HIM.

IT SEEMS TO ME BRIAN AND I ONCE WALKED WITH HIM

PAST A RESIDENCE A BLOCK OR SO FROM...

WHERE YOU FOUND BRIAN??

AN UNOCCUPIED BUILDING??

AND HE SEEMED TO INDICATE HE SOMETIMES SLEPT THERE.

DO YOU REMEMBER ME MENTIONING THAT TO YOU, SWEETHEART?

YOU KNOW, THAT COULD BE VERY HELPFUL.

EVEN IF WE DON'T FIND ANYTHING THERE,

ONE MIGHT TELL THE SUSPECT THAT YOU DID FIND SOMETHING

AND MAKING HIM THINK THAT YOU HAVE EVIDENCE

THAT MIGHT ENCOURAGE HIM TO...TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENED.

BEFORE YOU TRY DECEPTION, WHY DON'T YOU CHECK

AND SEE IF YOU DO FIND SOMETHING THERE?

ABSOLUTELY.

WHY DON'T YOU SHOW US WHERE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT

AND THAT'S ABSOLUTELY WHAT WE'LL DO FIRST.

MAYBE YOU AND I, SHERRIE, COULD USE THAT TIME TO, UM,

TALK ABOUT OTHER ACQUAINTANCES BRIAN HAD?? JUST COVERING ALL THE BASES.

DO YOU MIND DOING THAT, HONEY?

NO.

DANIEL CAN STAY WITH YOU.

GOOD.

YOU SEE WHERE I MEAN, RIGHT?

THE PLACE ON THE CORNER.

Lupe: THE TRAVEL AGENT'S PLACE.

YOU THINK WE'RE DEAF, LUPE?

HOW MANY TIMES YOU GONNA TELL US?

I SWEAR HE'S COMIN'. I AIN'T TRYIN' TO SCREW WITH YOU.

WELL, IF HE DON'T COME SOON,

YOUR DEAL'S GONNA TAKE A LITTLE TRIP.

THERE HE GOES.

THERE HE GOES.

THERE HE GOES.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

I'M MAKING HIM SHOW UP.

THERE.

Medavoy: THAT'S VICTOR?

YOU SAW HIM BEFORE YOU CLOSED YOUR EYES, RIGHT?

HELL IF I DID!

WHAT'S SHE DOIN' WITH HIM?

Medavoy: WHO?

WHO'S THE GIRL WITH VICTOR?

Lupe: THAT'S INEZ.

Martinez: NOW, DON'T GET OUT, LUPE. STAY HERE.

HE'S SUPPOSED TO KEEP AWAY FROM HER!

LUPE, YOU STAY IN THIS CAR UNTIL WE HAVE VICTOR.

LET'S GO! HEY! WHAT'D I DO?

JUST RELAX. WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT AT THE STATION HOUSE.

VICTOR, WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?

OH, MY GOD, LUPE.

I'M GONNA KICK YOUR ASS, INEZ!

AND VICTOR'S, TOO!

OH, COME ON!

NO, WE RAN INTO EACH OTHER ON COINCIDENCE.

OH, AND THAT WAS A COINCIDENTAL KISS YOU GAVE HER, TOO, RIGHT?

Martinez: IN THE CAR, LUPE!

Lupe: YOU GOT A LOT OF EXPLAINING TO DO, VICTOR!

I THINK IT'S THIS ONE.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S TAKE A LOOK.

DEFINITELY LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY WAS LIVING HERE.

DO YOU SEE ANYTHING SIGNIFICANT?

YOU SAID THERE WAS ANOTHER PLACE, TOO?

WHAT'S THAT?

ARE THOSE BLOODSTAINS?

YEAH.

IT LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE.

TO SOME EXTENT, MAYBE WE'RE WASTING A LITTLE TIME

ASKING MRS. EGAN ABOUT OTHER SUSPECTS LIKE THIS.

ASKING MRS. EGAN ABOUT OTHER POSSIBILITIES,

EVEN IF ONLY TO RULE THEM OUT,

MAKES THE POSSIBILITIES WE DON'T RULE OUT STRONGER,

BUT I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO SAY.

I LOST A FAMILY MEMBER TO AN ACT OF VIOLENCE, TOO.

REALLY?

MY DAD.

IT WAS JUST DEVASTATING.

I'M SORRY.

WELL, I?I'VE HAD TIME.

IF BRIAN HAS TO BE GONE,

I WISH YOU'D HAD AT LAST THE LITTLE BIT OF HEALING TIME GIVES.

NOTHING'S GOING TO HEAL THIS. IT'S TOO TERRIBLE.

WE'RE NOT MADE TO BURY OUR CHILDREN.

OH!

OH, MY GOD. OH, MY GOD.

I CAN'T LIVE THROUGH THIS.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, SHERRIE.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

[QUIET SOBBING]

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

THIS SICK BASTARD, SHER.

HE HAD A PIECE OF BRI'S CLOTHING.

I DON'T CARE, I DON'T CARE.

I JUST WANT BRIAN BACK.

I CARE.

EXCUSE ME JUST A SECOND.

THIS GUY'S A MONSTER.

WHAT'S GOIN' ON?

THIS GUY IS A MONSTER, BOSS.

HE LEADS ME TO THE KID'S SHIRT.

I HOLD OFF SHOWING THAT I SEE IT FOR A SECOND

SO I CAN CHECK OUT HIS PLAY,

HE CAN'T HOLD BACK.

HE CAN'T WAIT FOR ME TO BRING CRIME SCENE OVER

SO THAT THEY CAN FIND IT.

NO, HE'S GOTTA BRING MY HAND TO IT, TO HIS OWN KID'S BLOOD!

NO WAY IT'S NOT A PLANT?

NONE. NO WAY.

THERE'S NO WAY THAT YOU CAN MISTAKE THE BUILDINGS.

HE FAKES GOING INTO THE WRONG BUILDING.

HE KNEW WHAT HE WAS GOING FOR WHEN WE'RE WALKING OUT THE CAR.

I WANT THIS GUY, BOSS.

HOW ARE WE GONNA GET HIM?

I GOT HER TO OPEN UP A LITTLE.

HOW ARE WE GONNA GET HIM?

BRING THAT ISRAEL DOWN.

MAKE THAT PRICK THINK HE'S OFF THE HOT SEAT.

DO YOU USUALLY CHANGE YOUR MIND SO OFTEN

ABOUT HOW TO CONDUCT AN INVESTIGATION?

SIR...

WHAT YOU WEREN'T ALONE IN FEELING MAY HAVE BEEN INAPPROPRIATE

IN DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ'S DEALING WITH A GRIEVING FAMILY MEMBER

CAN BE AN ASSET IN TALKING WITH A SUSPECT.

LET ME HAVE THAT.

WHAT IS THIS, ISRAEL, HUH?

THIS IS BRIAN'S SHIRT WITH BLOOD ON IT.

DON'T YOU BE MAKIN' NO GOO?GOO EYES LIKE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON!

THAT'S BRIAN'S BLOOD ON THAT SHIRT,

AND WE FOUND IT WHERE YOU SLEEP.

NOW, EITHER YOU START LETTING US KNOW THE TRUTH HERE,

OR YOU'RE GONNA HAVE A BIG PROBLEM WITH ME, YOU UNDERSTAND?

DO YOU UNDERSTAND, ISRAEL?!

[CRYING]

I DON'T KNOW THAT WE

NECESSARILY NEED TO BE HERE, STEVE.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

I NEED TO GET A SODA.

DOES ANYBODY ELSE WANT ONE?

HE'S DEAD! BRIAN'S DEAD, ISRAEL!

[CRYING]

ALL RIGHT, ISRAEL.

LOOK, WE GOTTA STRAIGHTEN THIS OUT.

WE GOTTA STRAIGHTEN THIS OUT.

[QUIET SOBBING]

NOBODY'S SAYING THAT YOU WANTED THIS TO HAPPEN.

SO THIS WOULD BE WHAT THEY CALL HARD COP/SOFT COP?

YES, YOU...

COULD DESCRIBE IT THAT WAY.

I KIND OF THINK THAT YOU REALLY LIKED BRIAN.

YOU DID.

BUT BRIAN'S DEAD, ISRAEL.

HE'S DEAD.

SOMEBODY KILLED HIM, MIGHT NOT HAVE WANTED TO,

BUT HE LOST HIS SELF?CONTROL.

HE LOST HIS SELF?CONTROL,

AND JUST FOR ONE MINUTE MAYBE,

HE COULDN'T CONTROL HIS EMOTIONS.

NOW IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN HELP BRIAN'S MOM AND DAD

GET SOME PEACE OF MIND OVER THIS?

STOP WASTIN' TIME! YOU TREAT HIM DECENT,

HE DON'T GIVE YOU NO COOPERATION.

THE DECENT PART'S OVER.

BELIEVE ME...

I'VE DEALT WITH GUYS BIGGER THAN YOU,

AND IT'S ALWAYS ME THAT LEAVES WALKIN'.

NOW...

ME AND DETECTIVE SIMONE

ARE GONNA GIVE YOU A FEW MINUTES TO THINK ABOUT THIS,

AND THEN WE'RE GONNA COME BACK, AND WHEN WE DO,

WE'RE GONNA ASK YOU SOME QUESTIONS

THAT YOU CAN NOD YOUR HEAD TO "YES" OR "NO."

AND I BETTER BE SATISFIED THAT I'M GETTIN' THE RIGHT KIND OF NODS,

OR AFTERWARDS YOU'RE GONNA BE LUCKY YOU CAN MOVE YOUR HEAD AT ALL.

I SEE WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT...

HIM BEING AN ASSET.

YES, UM...

DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ IS A PIECE OF WORK.

LUPE SAY ANYTHING ABOUT HER PART IN IT?

PRETTY MUCH PINNED IT ALL ON YOU, VICTOR.

THAT BITCH.

SHE TOOK PART, MAN.

SHE COVERED UP THE??THE FAT GIRL'S MURDER.

HEY!

THE FAT GIRL HAD A NAME...

AND A FAMILY

AND A WHOLE COMMUNITY THAT'S GRIEVING FOR HER RIGHT NOW.

YOU, UH, YOU TAKE THAT INTO ACCOUNT. MAYBE YOU DO YOURSELF SOME GOOD.

LUPE'S LOSING HER LOOKS.

THAT'S WHY SHE'S HATING INEZ SO MUCH.

THESE CRIMES WERE COMMITTED BECAUSE OF JUNK??

JUNK THAT LUPE'S ON SAME AS ME, MAN!

IF I WAS CLEAN, I WOULD'VE NEVER DONE IT!

Martinez: TELL US ALL ABOUT IT.

I'M TELLING LUPE'S PART, TOO.

DEFINITELY.

DON'T LEAVE THAT OUT.

THE WAY TO COLLAR EGAN IS THROUGH HIS WIFE.

IT MAY NOT BE CONSCIOUS, BUT SHE KNOWS WHAT HE DID.

WE GOTTA BUY TIME TO LET THAT WORK ON HER.

CANDIDLY, AS A PROSECUTOR,

I WOULD SALIVATE OVER GOING TO BAT AGAINST THE HOMELESS MUTE.

HAVE YOU LISTENED TO A DAMN WORD ANYBODY'S SAID?

I LISTENED TO WHAT EVERYONE SAID,

AND I CREDIT YOUR SUSPICIONS AGAINST THIS GUY EGAN.

I'M SAYING, IN TERMS OF EVIDENCE,

YOU COULD PRESENT AGAINST THE MUTE TODAY,

AND A GRAND JURY WOULD INDICT.

HE'S A CLEVER MAN. THAT'S HOW THIS GUY SET IT UP.

WONDERS WHY PEOPLE CALL HIM ASSHOLE.

QUIET, ANDY.

YOU WANT MY MORAL REACTION TO THIS GUY, DETECTIVE,

WE CAN HAVE A SEPARATE CONVERSATION.

YEAH, I'LL SEE CAN I CHANGE MY DINNER PLANS.

IS THERE AN ARGUMENT THE BEST WAY TO REASSURE THE HUSBAND

IS TO GO AHEAD AND ARREST THE HOMELESS GUY?

YEAH. YOU'LL SHUT THE CASE DOWN.

WHAT'S THAT GONNA DO TO ISRAEL?

SOUNDS LIKE HE'S SLEPT IN WORSE PLACES

THAN JAIL.

ACCUSE HIM OF THIS KID'S MURDER,

YOU'RE GONNA BREAK HIS HEART.

IF WE HAVE TO PUT HIM THROUGH SOME TEMPORARY CHANGES

TO GET THE FATHER LOCKED UP, ANDY,

THAT'S HOW IT HAS TO BE.

THIS EGAN IS RICH, AND HE'S GOT A GOOD LAWYER.

YOU REALLY THINK ARRESTING THIS ISRAEL'S GONNA GET THIS GUY CHARGED?

HOLD ISRAEL.

COOL THE HUSBAND OUT, SAYING THAT WE LIKE THIS ISRAEL,

BUT WE CAN'T CHARGE HIM JUST YET BECAUSE THEN WE WOULD HAVE TO GET HIM COUNSEL.

THAT'LL GET YOU SOME TIME WITH THE WIFE EXPLAINING IT.

I'D LIKE TO DO THAT WITH THE HUSBAND AND THE LAWYER IN LEFT FIELD.

WHO TELLS THIS ISRAEL HE CAN'T LEAVE?

THERE'S WORD, DETECTIVE?

WE ARRESTED THE MAN

WHO KILLED YOUR DAUGHTER, MR. ROSENBLATT,

AND, UH, WE GOT A CONFESSION FROM HIM.

I SEE.

YOU CAN REST EASY HE WON'T BE ON THE STREET ANYMORE.

UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES,

WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE MEDICAL EXAMINER

TO RELEASE YOUR DAUGHTER'S REMAINS

WITHOUT AN INVASIVE AUTOPSY.

YOU CAN GET HESTER IN THE MORNING.

I AM SO GRATEFUL TO YOU.

MY, UH, OUTSIDER'S UNDERSTANDING OF HASIDIC LAW, UH...

EVERYTHING POSSIBLE OF HESTER'S REMAINS IS TO BE COLLECTED?

IF HER BLOOD WAS SPILT, YES.

THIS IS, UH...

SOIL AND SUCH FROM THE AREA WHERE HESTER DIED.

I THANK YOU FOR THIS.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

WE'RE SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

NO ONE ELSE IN THE SQUAD WOULD'VE KNOWN TO DO THAT, GREG.

THANKS.

WHAT I SAID?? HOW I WAS GONNA HURT YOU??

DON'T BE AFRAID ABOUT THAT. YOU HEAR ME, ISRAEL?

[CLEARING THROAT]

YOU GOTTA STAY.

WE'LL, UH, WE'LL BRING YOU FOOD TO EAT,

THERE'S A LAVATORY DOWN THE HALL,

AND YOU'LL SLEEP ON THE COT HERE.

YOU LIKE THE RADIO?

I'LL TRY AND GET A RADIO BROUGHT UP HERE FOR YOU.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?

WE NEED TO KEEP YOU HERE,

BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THAT YOU DID ANY HARM TO THAT BOY.

HMM?

ANY FEELINGS ON BRIAN'S DAD?

WHAT DO WE GOT, MORE OXEN AGAINST THE WALLS?

"THE PROUD HAVE FORGED A LIE AGAINST ME,

BUT I WILL KEEP THY PRECEPTS WITH MY WHOLE HEART."

GIVE ME ANOTHER MESSAGE.

[CLEARING THROAT]

"AND SHE CALLED UNTO HER HUSBAND AND SAID,

"SEND ME, I PRAY THEE,

ONE OF THE YOUNG MEN AND ONE OF THE ASSES."

"AND HE SAID,

"WHEREFORE WILT THOU GO TO HIM TODAY?

IT IS NEITHER NEW MOON NOR SABBATH."

"THEN SHE SADDLED AN ASS AND SAID TO HER SERVANT,

"DRIVE AND GO FORWARD,

SLACK NOT THY RIDING FOR ME."

FOR A MINUTE THERE, I THOUGHT WE WERE ON TO SOMETHING

WITH THE PROUD LIES AND PRECEPTS.

ALL RIGHT. SOMEBODY'LL BE UP HERE WITH YOUR FOOD.

TRY AND GET SOME REST.

HOW'D HE TAKE TO BEING HELD?

SHOWED ME SOME RELEVANT SCRIPTURE,

GO FORTH ON AN ASS.

I SEE THE MOTHER 10:00 TOMORROW.

DOES SHE TRY LETTING HER KNOW WE DON'T LIKE THIS ISRAEL?

BACKING IT HOW, ANDY?

RIGHT NOW THE EVIDENCE POINTS HIM OUT.

LOOK, ON THE OTHER SIDE, ALL WE GOT NOW

IS THE KID BEING CHRONICALLY RAPED ON AN AUTOPSY,

WHICH THE HUSBAND IS GONNA HAVE

5 DIFFERENT DOCTORS THAT'S GONNA ARGUE THE OTHER WAY.

SO LET'S JUST STAND ME UP AGAINST A WALL

AND PUT A BULLET IN MY HEAD FOR SUGGESTING AN APPROACH.

NO, LET'S JUST SAY THAT I DISAGREE WITH YOUR SUGGESTION

AND NOT TRY TO TURN THIS INTO A CONVERSATION ABOUT YOU.

GOD FORBID YOU EVER MADE A MISTAKE.

YOU KNOW, ANDY, SOMETIMES, YOU ARE HIGH?MAINTENANCE LIKE A BROAD.

WHOA, OH, THIS IS REALLY HELPING ME THINK STRAIGHT.

[SIGHS IN ANGRY FRUSTRATION]

YOU FEEL BAD, I FEEL BAD FOR YOU.

I GOTTA FIND A BIBLE.

SHE KNOWS HE DID IT, AND HE KNOWS SHE DOES.

DON'T WAIT ON HIM TELLING YOU.

IT'S WAITING FOR HER BEHIND A DOOR.

HE'S TRYING TO GET HER TO STAY AWAY FROM THE DOOR

SO THE THING BEHIND IT DIES.

AND THE THING FRIGHTENS HER SO MUCH,

SHE'S LETTING HIM DO IT.

HOW DO YOU GET HER BRAVE?

SHE'S GOTTA FEEL THE THING WAITING FOR HER,

NEEDING HER TO LIVE.

BRIAN'S DEAD, BUT THIS IS STILL ALIVE.

[SIGHING]

I'VE GOTTA MAKE IT...

HER CHILD.

HORRIBLE AS IT IS...

COVERED WITH BRIAN'S BLOOD...

SHE'S GOTTA OPEN THE DOOR TO SAVE IT. I'VE GOTTA HELP HER...

OPEN THE DOOR.
