My god.
Burning suspects? 15 pages of this crap, and yet you never once used your firearm in the line of duty.
Why not? Self-control.
Aren't you apologetic at all, harry? Not really.
And why is that? Sometimes you gotta do a wrong to make things right.
I'm not so sure rory bemmel would agree with that sentiment.
What's it gonna be, counselor? You gonna lock me up and swallow the key? What? You saved a senator's child, harry.
That's a pretty big bargaining chip.
100 hours.
Community service.
But say good-bye to your badge and your pension.
Son of a bitch.
FIFTEEN YEARS LATER Yo, harry? Yo, harry? You get those caffeine pills I left you? You know I got you the cherry chewable ones.

You know that means take 10.
We got something here! Lovebirds comin' your way, harry.

This will help with the divorce proceedings.
How much do I owe you, mr.
Bender? And 4,000 to destroy the other tape.
What other tape? - Oh, douglas! - Oh, baby.

Sweet, right? Bam, bam, bam! I thought I told you, no guns on the job.
Come on, harry, it's for protection.
You know, there are a lot of sickos out there.
It's for protection.
I never want to see that gun again.
You understand? I'm not kidding around.
All right.

You got it.
"Officer.
" I'll catch you in the A.
M.
Bender investigations? Thanks, tom.
Mr.
Bender? I'm meredith king.
Of course.
Have a seat.
I've got a very serious problem.
I hope I can be of help.
My husband is is having an affair.
Maybe more than one.
I'm not sure.
He brings them back to our home when I'm gone.
I often work nights.
I'm a social worker for the city.
I'm sorry.
I want you to give me the evidence, mr.
Bender.
The evidence i need to make him pay.
Well, that's my job, mrs.
King.
Making them pay.
Give me your address.
I'll have a van out front to eyeball the place.
A van? No, no.
Jack would notice a van outside the house.
He already thinks that I know.
That's pretty much how we do things.
There's a place, a house across the street.
It's vacant.
That's perfect, right? That'll work.
Thank you.
Thank you for helping me.
Great.
Great.
Close the door, man.
Harry, I've seen some hellholes in my day.
This looks like the helliest and the holiest.
Oh, god.
I never thought I'd be looking forward to that nasty old van.
Stop the chatter.
It's not great, but set up the remote video here on a three-hour loop.
I'm gonna go find a better angle upstairs.
You got it.
You know what? Now, that I look at it, we might be able to fix this place up.
Make it into something nice, you know? Yo, harry! I'm finished down here! Yeah, I'll be there in a minute.
Got a good angle up here! Take the van, go down the road, and find a good surveillance spot.
Be discreet! "Discreet"'s my middle name.
I hope so, pal.
All right, so, it's 10:00, harry.
Still nobody home.
Guess he's banging her at the office tonight.
Yo, harry.
I was wonderin'.
You, uh, you ever get, you know, hot, excited listening in on all these little trysts? James, shut up.
So, wifey's keeping you happy then, huh? What was that? I said, "so, wifey's keeping you happy then, huh?" No, no.
I'm picking something up here.
Where? From the house? Before he could even open h is mouth, this guy starts hitting him.
I got a light on.
Second floor.
I don't see it, harry.
Second floor.
Far side.
Someone is in her house.
How? I didn't clock any cars coming by Aren't you getting this? I got nothing but an empty house.
Before he left, he kicked him.
Once in the head, and then in the ear.
This guy's a monster.
Must have been an auto timer, radio frequencies, something.
Just keep your eye on the front door this time.
All right? Can you do that? Harry.
I swear to you.
Nobody went into that house.
James, someone's in here.
Where? Where you are? That old house? Yo, harry, you find anyone? Let's go! Let's go, go! - What the hell are you doing here? - Nothing.
- Not good enough.
What are you doing here? - Piss off, old man.
Answer me.
It was a dare.
It was just a dare! - A dare? - To stay the night.
