THE BOUGHT AGENT OFF WHICH PIECE SALVO WINDS UP GETTING.
YOU TOLD ME SOMETHING MAYBE 18 MONTHS AGO.
"EVERYTHING'S A SITUATION.
" MEANING YOU'RE IN A SITUATION RIGHT NOW.
CAN'T EXPLAIN RUNNING THAT PLATE.
I KNOW WHAT THE F.
B.
I.
IS DOING.
I KNOW THEY'RE LOOKING AT JOE SALVO.
-NOW WHY DON'T THEY WANT MY OFFICE TO KNOW THAT? - ASK THE F.
B.
I.
- TAKE IT EASY.
- HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO TAKE IT EASY? THERE'S RATS ALL OVER THIS OFFICE, THIS GUY'S IN TROUBLE, AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! HOW'S IT GOING? WE EXPECT YOU'LL BE CONTACTED THIS MORNING BY SERGEANT MARTENS'S SUPERIOR AT I.
A.
B.
LIEUTENANT SHANNON.
WE WANT YOU TO AGREE TO AN INTERVIEW.
IF LIEUTENANT SHANNON ASKS, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE YOU KNOW JOEY SALVO, BUT YOU REFUSE TO COOPERATE FURTHER.
YOU WANNA SEE IF HE TAKES THAT TO SALVO? - IS SHANNON WHO YOU'RE LOOKING AT? - YOU DO YOUR PART.
- WE'LL FIGURE OUT WHERE THE PIECES FIT TOGETHER.
- HEY, ASSHOLE.
MY INTERVIEWER YESTERDAY ASKED ME ABOUT SALVO.
SERGEANT MARTENS ASKED YOU? YES, THAT'S RIGHT.
SO MARTENS, KNOWING ABOUT THIS OPERATION, HE DIDN'T GO BACK TO SALVO.
YOU DON'T PICK THAT UP ON YOUR BUG.
SO MARTENS IS OFF YOUR WORRY LIST, RIGHT? SHANNON SHOULD BE CALLING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SHIFT.
IF HE TAKES IT BACK TO SALVO, I'M DONE HERE.
WELL, THAT'D BE A BIG THING FOR US, FINDING OUT WHO'S GIVING INFORMATION TO SALVO.
YEAH, SO THAT YOU CAN SAY, "I DIDN'T ACTUALLY SAY YOU WERE DONE.
" I'M TELLIN' YOU, THIS GUY BITES, I'M DONE.
THAT'S MY LIEUTENANT'S COPY-- WHAT I DID AND WHO ASKED ME.
HE BITES, I'M DONE.
YOU COULD USE SOME REST.
I STAYED UP LATE MAKING SURE I GOT EVERYTHING RIGHT.
LIEUTENANT.
- YOU MIND HOLDING ON TO THAT? - NO.
IF YOU WANT, I'LL VERIFY THE SEQUENCE AND SIGN IT.
YOU WOULD DO THAT? YEAH.
I DO WHAT I CAN.
[ Rings .]
THIS IS SIMONE.
YEAH.
HOW'S IT GOING THERE, LIEUTENANT? GOOD MORNING.
HOW'S HE DOING? I HAVEN'T TALKED TO HIM SINCE YESTERDAY.
YEAH, GOOD.
WHAT, YOU WANT ME TO PUT A GUN ON HIM, MAKE HIM TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON? WE GOT A DUMP JOB.
HOMELESS GUY CALLED IT IN.
A WALLET AND DRIVER'S LICENSE BY THE D.
O.
A.
[ Shutter Clicking .]
[ Sighs .]
CHRISTINE LAKOS.
WHAT'S THAT COMING OUT OF HER MOUTH? YOU SEE THAT WITH STROKES, HEART ATTACKS? YOU FIGURE SHE FELT ONE COMING ON, SO SHE RAN IN HERE? -[ Shutter Clicking .]
- YOU FOUND HER? I FOUND HER AND CALLED 911.
LUCKY IT WAS A FREE CALL, 'CAUSE, UH, I DON'T EVEN HAVE A QUARTER.
ALL RIGHT.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT HOW SHE GOT HERE? MMM, MAYBE, UH, A WHITE CAR DUMPED HER, UH, WHAT KIND OF WHITE CAR? UH, MAYBE A TOYOTA.
DROVE UP AND DUMPED HER OUT.
GONE IN THE SPACE OF TWO MINUTES.
THE GUY DRIVING WASN'T GOOD WITH A STICK SHIFT.
WHAT'S YOUR NAME? MOE.
I LIVE HERE.
RIGHT NOW I'M GONNA BUY SOME BREAKFAST.
- POPPED BLOOD VESSELS IN HER EYES.
- SMOTHERED? WASN'T ROBBED OR RAPED.
WE GOTTA FIGURE OUT WHAT THAT WAS COMING OUT OF HER MOUTH.
MM-HMM.
AND LET'S KEEP TALKING LIKE WE'RE ROBOTS, OKAY, ANDY? PROVE WE'RE UPSET ABOUT BOBBY.
DON'T OPEN A MOUTH TO ME.
YOU THINK I'M NOT UPSET? I'M UPSET.
WE DON'T HAVE TO GET MISERABLE WITH EACH OTHER 'CAUSE WE'RE NOT ABLE TO HELP.
WE DON'T HAVE TO SCREW OURSELVES UP HERE.
NO.
- CAN I HELP YOU? - YES, I'VE BEEN ASSAULTED AND ROBBED.
I'M UP, GINA.
I'M DETECTIVE MARTINEZ.
CAN I HELP YOU? YES.
I-I STOPPED TO HELP SOMEONE ON ONE OF YOUR CITY'S FAIR STREETS AND GOT ROBBED AND STOMPED FOR MY TROUBLES.
- I'M SORRY THAT HAPPENED.
WHAT'S YOUR NAME? - JOHN HIGHSMITH.
COME ON IN.
GREG.
THIS IS JOHN HIGHSMITH.
HE GOT ROBBED AND STOMPED.
HOW DO YOU DO, MR.
HIGHSMITH? COME ON.
HOW BADLY DID YOU GET HURT, MR.
HIGHSMITH? WHY? MUST I PASS SOME SUFFERING TEST BEFORE YOU'LL ACT ON MY COMPLAINT? UH, WE'RE-WE'RE TAKING THE COMPLAINT.
IT DETERMINES HOW WE WRITE IT UP.
EVERY BONE IN MY BODY IS BROKEN.
THOSE KIDS SURE DIDN'T HURT YOUR SMART MOUTH TOO MUCH, DID THEY, MR.
HIGHSMITH? WE UNDERSTAND YOU'RE UPSET.
UH, IT'S NOT GONNA HELP ANYTHING TAKING A LOUSY ATTITUDE.
I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE PUBLIC THEATER.
ABOUT 50 FEET AHEAD OF ME A YOUNG BLACK MAN BEGAN SCREAMING THAT HIS FRIEND WAS HAVING AN EPILEPTIC FIT.
AS I HURRIED TO HELP, THE ONE WHO WAS SCREAMING SUDDENLY GRABBED HIS HAND BACK, LOOKING AS IF HE'D BEEN BITTEN BY THE BOY WHO WAS HAVING A SEIZURE.
ALL RIGHT.
AND-AND THE GUY WHO WAS BITTEN ASKED YOU FOR SOMETHING TO PUT IN HIS FRIEND'S MOUTH TO KEEP HIM FROM SWALLOWING HIS TONGUE? I GAVE MY WALLET TO THE ONE BOY WHO WASN'T HAVING A SEIZURE.
THEN THE VICTIM-- THE ONE ON THE GROUND-- SUDDENLY KICKED ME.
THE OTHER ONE STRUCK ME ON THE BACK OF THE NECK.
AND AS I LAY THERE ON THE GROUND, THEY BOTH KICKED ME AGAIN AND AGAIN.
COMPLETELY GRATUITOUS.
DID YOU GET A DECENT LOOK AT THESE GUYS? BLACK.
PUNKS.
TEENAGERS.
MAYBE LEARNED THEIR STOMPING TECHNIQUES INSIDE THESE WALLS.
- WHAT? - HOW DO YOU INTEND TO PROCEED, GENTLEMEN? - WHAT DID YOU SAY JUST A MINUTE AGO? -SORRY.
I'VE HAD A BAD MORNING.
NOT QUITE UP TO THE MISREPRESENTATION OF MY FEELINGS THAT WOULD GET YOU ON BOARD.
HERE'S WHERE I CAN BE REACHED.
I ABSOLUTELY INTEND TO PRESS CHARGES.
GREG, THIS IS THE MAGAZINE THAT WROTE WE WERE LIKE A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY'S POLICE FORCE.
YES, I WAS WAITING FOR THIS PART.
OH, YES.
HUH.
I DON'T READ YOUR MAGAZINE, BUT OUR LOCAL PAPERS DID EXCERPTS, - SHORTEN THE WORDS UP.
- MMM.
PROUD PROLETARIAN IGNORANCE.
WE BETTER BE EXTRA CAREFUL IF WE COLLAR THESE GUYS.
-PROTECT THEIR RIGHTS.
- SO DO I FORGET ABOUT RETRIEVING MY WALLET? OH, NOT AT ALL, MR.
HIGHSMITH.
UH, WE'LL TRY AND STOP THE BEATINGS AND BRIBE-TAKING LONG ENOUGH TO SEE IF WE CAN TRACK IT DOWN.
I'LL BE INTERESTED TO SEE IF YOU DO.
DICKHEAD.
[ Chattering .]
[ Knocks .]
JOHN SHANNON.
HOW'S IT GOING, LIEUTENANT? HOW ABOUT YOU AND I GET THIS THING STRAIGHTENED AWAY, HUH? I'M FOR THAT.
GOOD.
I'VE BEEN THROUGH YOUR FILE.
YOU'RE NOT A WRONG COP.
YOU RAN A PLATE WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION.
CAME UP NO HITS, COVERED, ISSUED TO ANOTHER AGENCY.
WERE YOU, UH-- YOU KEEPING UP YOUR COMPUTER SKILLS? I GOT NOTHIN' PAST WHAT I TOLD SERGEANT MARTENS.
HMM.
WHICH WAS NOTHING.
THE LOAN-OUT AGENCY'S THE F.
B.
I.
THE OPERATION'S ON A HALFWAY HOOKED-UP, STICKUP GUY, JOE SALVO-- FIRST COLLAR'S IN THE 27 WHEN HE WAS 17.
- YOU FOUND ALL THAT OUT, HUH? - YEAH.
WHERE YOU GREW UP-- - YOU KNOW JOE SALVO, BOBBY? - YEAH, I DO.
WAS SALVO WORRIED SOMEONE HAD HIM UP? ASKED YOU, OLD TIMES, WOULD YOU RUN THAT PLATE? I KNEW JOE SALVO GROWING UP.
I GOT NOTHIN' TO SAY TO THE REST OF IT.
PRETTY INNOCENT REQUEST, ASKING YOU TO RUN A PLATE FOR HIM.
MAYBE HE TOLD YOU IT WAS ABOUT ROMANCE.
NO ONE'S TO SAY YOU KNEW WHAT HIS ACT WAS ANYMORE.
- I GOT NOTHIN' MORE TO SAY.
- NO MATTER HOW MUCH THAT HURTS YOU? I'M FROM THE STREET TOO, BOBBY.
I CAN RESPECT HOW YOU FEEL, BUT THIS AIN'T THE STREET NO MORE.
YOU WANNA SHOW ME SOME RESPECT, LIEUTENANT? DON'T HUSTLE ME LIKE I'M A SKELL.
ALL RIGHT, YOU'RE DONE.
D.
O.
A.
GOT SUFFOCATED.
PLUS THERE'S SOME FOREIGN KIND OF FOAM COMING OUT OF HER MOUTH.
M.
E.
's CHECKING IT OUT FOR POISON.
OH.
AH.
CAN I HELP YOU, SIR? UH, NO.
IN JUST A MOMENT.
I'M FIGHTING OFF A MIGRAINE.
[ Clears Throat .]
D.
M.
V.
SHOWS THE VICTIM, UH, OWNING A WHITE CELICA.
MATCHES THE CAR SHE WAS DUMPED FROM.
WHO GAVE YOU THAT? HOMELESS GUY.
[ Sipowicz .]
UH, ONLY OTHER THING HE SAID WAS-- [ Groans .]
THE, UH-- THE DRIVER WAS A MALE.
WASN'T USED TO DRIVING A STICK.
WE'LL REACH OUT TO THE D.
O.
A.
's NEXT OF KIN, TALK TO HER NEIGHBORS.
CHRISTINE LAKOS, DUMP JOB, HOMICIDE, 26.
-WANNA WORK IT WITH THEM? - SURE.
OKAY.
-MAY I HELP YOU, SIR? - I'M JUST A LITTLE NAUSEOUS.
I'LL BE WITH YOU IN A MINUTE.
FIGHTING OFF A MIGRAINE.
HOW'S IT GOING THERE, GUYS? - HI.
- HOW'S IT GOING WITH YOU? HALF A CHANCE, MAYBE THIS THING'LL LET UP.
- IS THAT RIGHT, BOBBY? - YEAH.
MAYBE THESE PEOPLE JUST GOT WHAT THEY WANTED.
[ Sipowicz .]
MAYBE THESE PEOPLE DID, HUH? - MAYBE THESE PEOPLE ARE THE C.
I.
A.
? - BUSTED.
SO IF THESE PEOPLE GOT WHAT THEY WANT, MAYBE WE GET A COPIOUS RUNDOWN WHAT THE HELL HAS BEEN GOIN' ON.
I ACTUALLY MADE SOME NOTES.
MY NAME IS HERBERT WENTZEL.
I'M A PHYSICIAN.
AND I NEED TO SPEAK TO A DETECTIVE IN CONFIDENCE.
- DETECTIVE, THIS IS DR.
HERBERT WENTZEL.
- WE'LL MANAGE.
DETECTIVE SIMONE.
HOW CAN I HELP YOU? I'M A PSYCHIATRIST.
I'M CONCERNED ABOUT A PATIENT, CHRISTINA LAKOS.
WHY? I BELIEVE MISS LAKOS IS GRAVELY AT RISK BY HER OWN HAND OR FROM A LOVED ONE.
UNLESS I'M CERTAIN A CRIME'S INTENDED OR ACTUALLY HAS TAKEN PLACE, I CAN'T DISCLOSE THE BASIS OF MY CONCERNS.
HOW WOULD YOU SUGGEST WE ACT ON THOSE, UH, CONCERNS? WHAT I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT SHE MISSED HER LAST APPOINTMENT.
I WOULD TALK TO HER LOVED ONES.
I BELIEVE THIS IS THE SISTER'S PHONE NUMBER AND ALSO HER FATHER'S.
HE LIVES IN A DIFFERENT PLACE? I WOULD TALK TO BOTH OF THEM.
ASK HER WHEREABOUTS? FORM IMPRESSIONS OF THEM BASED ON YOUR CONVERSATIONS TO SEE IF SHE WAS REALLY AT RISK.
THANKS FOR THE HEADS-UP.
IT WASN'T A HAPPY MISSION.
MAYBE IT'LL TURN OUT SHE BLEW THE APPOINTMENT TO, UH, GO SHOPPING.
DETECTIVE, I'M NOT SANGUINE THAT THAT'LL BE THE OUTCOME.
D.
O.
A.
's SHRINK.
GOT REASON TO BELIEVE SHE'S IN DANGER.
TELL HIM THERE'S A REASON TO BELIEVE SHE'S SUFFOCATED DEAD WITH SOME KIND OF FOAM COMING OUT OF HER MOUTH? I DIDN'T WANNA GIVE THAT UP TO HIM YET.
-WAS HE ON THE EAR WHEN YOU WERE RUNNING THE CASE FOR THE BOSS? -COULD'VE BEEN.
'CAUSE HE WAS LAYING THAT DOCTOR-PATIENT PRIVILEGE STUFF ON PRETTY THICK.
SAYIN' WE OUGHTA BE LOOKING AT THE D.
O.
A.
's LOVED ONES.
WHICH HE SAYS HE DON'T KNOW SHE'S DEAD YET.
- I'M CALLING HER PARENTS.
WANT ME TO HANG UP? - WE WANNA BE LOOKING AT 'EM.
I'LL LET THE BOSS KNOW WE'RE GOING OUT.
ACTUAL DETECTIVE WORK.
I LIKE THIS.
DRAIN CLEANER.
POOR GIRL.
I HOPE SHE WAS SUFFOCATED BEFORE THEY POURED THAT INTO HER.
M.
E.
SAYS THAT'S HOW IT WENT.
-[ Knocking .]
-[ Man .]
WHO? NEW YORK CITY DETECTIVES.
MR.
ALBERT LAKOS? WHAT'S IT ABOUT? - CAN WE TALK INSIDE? -[ Lock Clicks .]
I'M DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ.
THIS IS DETECTIVES SIMONE AND RUSSELL.
- WE HAVE SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR DAUGHTER CHRISTINE.
- COME.
- IS SHE SICK? - WHEN DID YOU SEE CHRISTINE LAST, MR.
LAKOS? ABOUT A WEEK.
SHE TALK TO THE MOTHER EVERY MORNING.
IS THAT BY TELEPHONE? ON THE TELEPHONE.
DID YOU TALK TO YOUR DAUGHTER THIS MORNING? [ Speaking Greek .]
NOT THIS MORNING.
CHRISTINE MISSED A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT THIS MORNING.
UH, PSYCHIATRIST.
SIX-FIGURE INCOME.
SPEND MONEY FOR THAT, HUH? - WHAT DO YOU DO FOR A LIVING, SIR? - PLUMBER.
MY BACK'S HURT.
DID YOU AND YOUR DAUGHTER HAVE SOME KIND OF DISPUTE? YOU SAID THAT SHE ONLY TALKS TO HER MOTHER.
WELL, HOW A DAUGHTER AND MOTHER TALK.
SHE COMES FOR DINNER.
I SEE HER THEN.
GET OUT IF YOU DON'T SAY WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
WE'RE SORRY TO HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS, MR.
AND MRS.
LAKOS.
CHRISTINE WAS INVOLVED IN A VIOLENT INCIDENT THIS MORNING.
[ Mr.
Lakos .]
OH, MY GOD.
SHE WAS FOUND DEAD.
[ Gasps .]
OH, MY GOD.
[ Cries, Speaks Greek .]
[ Cries .]
[ Mr.
Lakos .]
WHO HURT HER? WE'RE TRYING TO FIND OUT.
WHO HURT MY CHILD? [ Greek .]
IS MY OTHER CHILD ALIVE? [ Mrs.
Lakos Crying .]
-WE'RE GOING TO TALK TO HER NOW.
-[ Simone .]
WE'RE SURE SHE IS.
WE'RE GONNA TO HAVE TO ASK YOU NOT TO CONTACT YOUR DAUGHTER UNTIL WE'VE SPOKEN TO HER.
WHY DON'T I STAY HERE? WE'RE SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS, SIR.
WHO HURT MY CHILD? [ Greek .]
[ Laughing .]
PLAYIN' BASKETBALL'S A CRIME NOW, THE WAY THEM GUYS SWOOPED ON US.
-YOU EVER HEAR OF SCHOOL, JAMAL? -OH! SO YOU GUYS MUST BE THE TRUANT OFFICERS.
- YEAH, WE'RE TRUANT OFFICERS.
- OR WAS IT THEM GUYS THAT PICKED US UP? THOSE WERE COPS FROM SPECIAL FRAUDS, JAMAL.
AND YOU AND WARREN ARE COLLARS FOR THE SAME CRAP THEY POPPED YOU FOR TWICE ALREADY.
YO, I THOUGHT THEY WAS HEALTH COPS.
YOU KNOW, POP MY BOY WARREN FOR BEING EPILEPTIC.
[ Laughing .]
YOUTHFUL OFFENDER.
- YOU THINK YOU'RE SUPERMAN, RIGHT, JAMAL? - A REAL NICE CAPE HIS FIRST STRETCH AT RIKERS ONCE HE'S BENT OVER AND BUSTED OPEN.
[ Laughing .]
[ Shutter Clicks .]
- HEY, HE CAN'T DO THAT WITHOUT OUR PERMISSION.
- HEY, WARREN, PERMISSION THIS.
VERY GRATEFUL.
SURE.
- HOW'S IT GOING, MR.
HIGHSMITH? -[ Medavoy .]
WE CAN TALK HERE.
- RIGHT THERE, SIR.
- [ Coughs .]
WE'VE, UH, CONTACTED OUR SPECIAL FRAUDS UNIT, DESCRIBED YOUR COMPLAINT.
THEY PICKED TWO KIDS UP WORK THAT HUSTLE IN THAT GENERAL AREA.
I SEE.
WE HAD 'EM BROUGHT OVER.
THEY'RE LOCKED UP DOWN THE HALL THERE.
- WELL, SHALL WE SEE IF I IDENTIFY THEM? - WE CAN'T REALLY DO THAT.
THESE KIDS ARE PRETTY WISE.
THEY WON'T AGREE TO A LINEUP.
AND IF WE EVEN ASK, THEY'LL LAWYER UP.
BEING THEY'RE MINORS, WE'RE NOT EVEN ALLOWED TO KEEP THEIR PHOTOGRAPHS ON FILE.
HAVE YOU BROUGHT ME HERE TO EXPOSE ME TO YOUR SCALDING CONSTITUTIONAL IRONIES? OUR POINT MORE WAS TO LET YOU KNOW WE HAPPEN TO GOT PHOTOS OF THESE KIDS.
YOU PICKING 'EM OUT ISN'T GONNA SEND THEM TO PRISON OR ANYTHING, BUT IF WE KNOW IT'S THEM, AT LEAST WE CAN TRY AND GET YOUR WALLET BACK.
WELL, YES.
YES, I WOULD LIKE TO GET IT BACK.
CERTAIN PERSONAL EFFECTS.
ANY MONEY LEFT, MAYBE YOU COULD BUY A SELF-IMPROVEMENT TAPE, BEIN' NICER SO OTHER PEOPLE DON'T WANNA HIT YOU WITH A BRICK.
[ Chuckles .]
ARE YOU GOING TO SHOW ME THE PICTURES? LOOK THROUGH THESE.
THESE ARE THE TWO.
ARE THOSE THEY? - ARE THOSE THE TWO YOU HAVE IN CUSTODY? - YES, THOSE ARE THEY.
GO SPREAD SOME CHEER ELSEWHERE, MR.
HIGHSMITH.
WE'LL LET YOU KNOW IF WE GET YOUR WALLET BACK.
- HEY, BOSS.
- HEY, UM, THAT PSYCHIATRIST IS WAITING FOR YOU UPSTAIRS.
YEAH, WE'LL NEED TO TALK FURTHER WITH HIM.
HARD TO LIKE THE D.
O.
A.
's OLD MAN FOR BEING INVOLVED.
WHERE THIS DOCTOR WAS POINTING YOU? THE FATHER WAS PRETTY TORN UP.
ANYTHING OFF THE D.
O.
A.
's SISTER? SOME KIND OF BUYER AT A DEPARTMENT STORE.
SHE WAS GONE, BUT WE'LL TRY AGAIN.
RUSSELL WAS WITH THE PARENTS SO WE COULD KEEP THE SISTER'S NOTIFICATION FRESH, BUT WE TOLD HER TO COME BACK.
DIANE'S ALREADY UPSTAIRS.
YOU KNOW SHE DRIVES LIKE A MANIAC? I GOT YOUR MESSAGE.
IS THERE NEWS? WHY DON'T WE TALK IN HERE, DOC? YOU WERE CLOCKED GOING 87 MILES AN HOUR COMING BACK HERE.
YOU CAN HAVE A SEAT RIGHT HERE.
THIS IS QUITE A CONSIGNMENT OF MAN AND WOMAN POWER.
WELL, DOCTOR, YOU WERE RIGHT THAT MISS LAKOS WAS IN DANGER.
WE FOUND HER BODY A LITTLE WHILE AGO.
OH, NO.
THIS TYPE OF SITUATION, DEPARTMENT LIKES TO USE AS MUCH MAN AND WOMAN POWER AS THEY CAN.
THIS IS WHAT I WAS AFRAID OF.
I WAS LITERALLY GETTING SICK OVER THIS POSSIBILITY.
[ Simone .]
WELL, KNOWING SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED TO MISS LAKOS, DOCTOR, WOULD YOU MIND TELLING US A LITTLE MORE ABOUT WHY YOU WERE SO WORRIED? ABSOLUTELY.
THIS TAKES THE ETHICAL GLOVES OFF TO A MUCH GREATER EXTENT.
THIS WAS A DEEPLY DEPRESSED A HISTORY OF FAMILY ABUSE.
- ABUSIVE HOW? - INCESTUOUS CONTACT WITH THE MALE PARENT OVER A PROTRACTED PERIOD, STRONGLY REPRESSED.
I HATE TO USE A LOT OF PROFESSIONAL JARGON, BUT THERE'S A NEXUS BETWEEN DEPTH OF REPRESSION AND DEGREE OF DEPRESSION.
- SHE WAS SUICIDAL? - WE'D IDENTIFIED AND WERE ADDRESSING THESE CATHEXES IN AN INCREASINGLY POSITIVE FASHION.
BUT SHE ABSOLUTELY HAD THE CAPACITY TO KILL HERSELF.
AND HOW DO YOU THINK SHE'D HAVE DONE THAT? OBVIOUSLY, TO THE EXTENT HER SELF-HATRED WAS GENERATED BY HER CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES, SHE WOULD FEEL ENORMOUS ANGER TOWARDS HER FATHER.
SHE MIGHT DETAIL HER GRIEVANCES IN A LETTER THAT SHE WOULD CERTAIN WOULD BE FOUND.
HER FATHER'S A PLUMBER.
YOU THINK SHE MIGHT SWALLOW DRAIN CLEANER? OH, THAT'S REMARKABLE.
IS THAT WHAT SHE DID? THAT IS HEARTBREAKING AND REMARKABLE.
AS FAR AS THE MEDICAL EXAMINER CAN TELL, THE BIGGEST REMARKABLE THING ABOUT THAT WAS HER DOING THAT AFTERSHE SUFFOCATED HERSELF.
THE DRAIN CLEANER WAS INTRODUCED POSTMORTEM? SOMEONE DID THE INTRODUCTIONS AFTER THEY CROAKED HER.
- NOT MUCH LATENT CONTENT IN THAT, IS THERE? - WHAT DID YOU SAY, DOCTOR? IF SOMEONE WERE TO BE GUILTY OF A CRIME IN A MOMENT OF PASSION, AND THEN BE FILLED WITH SELF-RECRIMINATION AND REGRETS, THERE WOULDN'T BE A MUCH MORE DRAMATIC WAY TO POINT THE AUTHORITIES TO HIMSELF AS THE CRIME'S PERPETRATOR THAN PUTTING DRAIN CLEANER DOWN HIS DAUGHTER'S THROAT.
YOU'RE SAYING HER FATHER DID THE MURDER.
AND SINCE HE WAS A PLUMBER, WHAT HE DID AFTERWARDS WITH THE DRAIN CLEANER, THAT WAS A WAY OF HIM CONFESSING? UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, I THINK THE CANONS OF MY PROFESSION WOULD NOT PRECLUDE MY SAYING THAT I THINK THE FINGER OF SUSPICION POINTS TO CHRISTINE'S FATHER.
- SO THAT WOULD BE A YES? - [ Sighs .]
-[ Phone Ringing .]
-[ Siren Wailing In Distance .]
THANKS FOR COMING IN, DOCTOR.
WE'LL LET YOU KNOW WHAT DEVELOPS.
- YOU MUST PROMISE TO DO THAT.
- GO ON.
GET OUT OF HERE.
YEAH, WE PROMISE.
YOU ALL RIGHT? IT'S BAD.
[ Grunts .]
DETECTIVE, YOU'RE UNDER SUSPENSION.
I NEED YOUR GUN, YOUR SHIELD AND YOUR I.
D.
WHAT ARE THE CHARGES? YOU'LL BE SERVED WITH THE CHARGES BEFORE THE TRIAL COMMISSIONER.
YOU GOT A SECOND GUN ON YOUR 10 CARD.
YEAH, THE SECOND GUN IS IN MY LOCKER.
I'M GONNA GO GET IT WITH HIM.
WHAT HAPPENED? I DID WHAT THEY WANTED.
I DON'T KNOW, BOBBY.
I DON'T KNOW.
- WHAT ARE THEY DOIN' TO YOU? - I'M SUSPENDED, ANDY.
WHY? I DIDN'T DO NOTHIN' WRONG.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, BOSS.
I'M GONNA TELL YOU SOMETHING RIGHT NOW.
THIS HAD TO BE WHAT THEY WANTED AND WHERE THEY WERE GOING ALL ALONG.
[ Panting .]
NOW THEY GOT ME SAT DOWN.
THEY'RE GONNA BE COMIN' BACK AT ME WITH SOMETHIN' MORE.
[ Sighs .]
[ Slams .]
[ Chattering .]
SO YOU WANT TO TAKE IT? SET UP A FEMININE RAPPORT? HOW ABOUT WE SEE HOW IT LAYS OUT WITH HER, ANDY? - YEAH.
EXCUSE ME FOR TRYING TO HAVE A PLAN.
- ANDY, STOP IT.
EXCUSE ME.
DETECTIVES.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR ANNA LAKOS.
MAY I HELP YOU? MISS LAKOS? YES? I'M DETECTIVE RUSSELL.
THIS IS DETECTIVE SIPOWICZ.
IS THERE SOME PLACE WE COULD TALK? WHAT'S IT ABOUT? HAVE YOU BEEN IN TOUCH WITH YOUR PARENTS? - NO.
- COULD WE TALK SOMEWHERE MORE PRIVATE? PLEASE.
JUST TELL ME.
I'M SORRY TO HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS, BUT YOUR SISTER, CHRISTINE, WAS THE VICTIM OF A HOMICIDE THIS MORNING.
[ Crying .]
NO.
DO THAT SOMEPLACE ELSE.
CAN I GET YOU SOME WATER? [ Crying Continues .]
WHAT HAPPENED? [ Russell .]
MISS LAKOS, YOU HAVEN'T SPOKEN WITH YOUR PARENTS IN THE LAST FOUR OR FIVE HOURS? - NO.
-WE NOTIFIED THEM THIS MORNING.
WE THOUGHT BY NOW THEY WOULD HAVE CONTACTED YOU.
DID YOU TELL THEM NOT TO? MORE OR LESS BUT-- IF YOU TOLD THEM NOT TO, THEY WOULDN'T.
WHO HURT HER? IT'S NOT CLEAR RIGHT NOW.
[ Crying Continues .]
DID SHE HAVE ANY ENEMIES? SOMEBODY SHE DIDN'T GET ALONG WITH? A BOYFRIEND OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT? MY SISTER WAS RAPED SIX MONTHS AGO.
SHE HADN'T HAD A BOYFRIEND SINCE.
WAS HER ATTACKER CAUGHT? SHE DIDN'T BRING CHARGES BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T WANT OUR FATHER TO FIND OUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED.
DID SHE KNOW HER ATTACKER? COULD HE HAVE DONE THIS TO HER TOO? IT WAS SOMEONE SHE WORKED WITH.
HE MOVED TO SEATTLE.
I HAVE TO BE WITH MY PARENTS.
I DON'T-- I DON'T THINK MY DAD CAN LIVE THROUGH THIS.
DID SHE TALK TO YOU ABOUT SEEING A PSYCHIATRIST? A-A LITTLE.
SHE WAS HURT SO BADLY BY WHAT HAD HAPPENED.
[ Russell .]
EMOTIONALLY? YEAH.
IT HAD JUST TORN UP HER FEELINGS ABOUT HERSELF.
I DON'T KNOW IF A DOCTOR COULD'VE DONE HER ANY GOOD.
I'M SORRY.
I CAN'T HELP YOU.
I HAVE TO GO BE WITH MY FAMILY.
YOU'VE BEEN A LOT OF HELP.
WE'RE SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.
HEY, GINA.
HEY.
DETECTIVE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE SAYING, BUT I KNOW YOU WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG.
- THANKS.
WHERE'S THE BOSS? -IN THE LAVATORY.
AND THOSE F.
B.
I.
SONS OF BITCHES ARE IN THE COFFEE ROOM.
- HEY, GUYS.
- HEY.
- ANYTHING WE CAN DO, BOBBY? - IT'S GOTTA SORT ITSELF OUT, GREG.
AS FAR AS THAT GOES, THEY GOTTA SORT THEIRSELVES OUT.
'CAUSE THERE'S NO CHANCE IN THE WORLD THIS IS ANYTHING BUT A HUMMER BEEF.
SO WHERE ARE YOU WITH THOSE JUVENILES? THE VICTIM MADE A PHOTO I.
D.
THAT'S INADMISSIBLE.
THESE KIDS ARE TOO SMART TO STAND IN A LINEUP.
WE'LL LET 'EM GO.
COOL 'EM OUT A LITTLE MORE BEFORE WE TRY FOR THE GUY'S WALLET.
BOBBY.
F.
B.
I.
's IN THERE.
THE OTHER SHOE, HUH? YEAH.
YOU WANT ME TO BRING 'EM IN HERE? UH-UH.
LET 'EM MAKE THEIR PLAY.
OKAY.
- I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY SUSPENDED YOU.
- YEAH.
AND IF YOU PISSED IN MY EAR, YOU WOULD TELL ME IT WAS RAINING.
THE GUY THAT SUSPENDED ME, - THAT'S THE SAME GUY YOU'RE LOOKING AT FOR BEING WRONG.
- I KNOW.
- WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN? - WE'RE NOT A HUNDRED PERCENT SURE.
YOU'RE NOT-- YOU'RE NOT SURE? THAT SHANNON COULD MOVE AGAINST YOU SO FAST MAKES US WONDER IF SALVO'S GOT A SECOND HOOK.
OH, MAN.
OH, MAN.
YOU ARE GETTING YOUR JOB BACK.
I PROMISED YOU THAT.
YOU SEE, THIS IS ON THE STREET NOW.
IF I GET MY JOB BACK, PEOPLE OUT THERE ARE ALWAYS GONNA WONDER DID I CUT A DEAL.
WAS HE A WRONG GUY AND DID HE JUST RAT SOMEBODY OUT TO SAVE HIS ASS? WHEN YOU GET BACK ON THE JOB, BELIEVE ME, WE'LL DO SOME SPIN CONTROL FOR YOU.
JUST SHUT UP, MAN! JUST-- [ Breathes Deeply .]
YOU SHUT UP.
OH.
AS LONG AS IT'S FALLEN LIKE THIS-- YOU SUSPENDED, SALVO'S I.
A.
B.
HOOK TELLING HIM YOU'RE A STAND-UP GUY-- WE FIGURE YOU COULD SNUGGLE UP WITH JOE NOW PRETTY GOOD.
[ Laughs .]
YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I FIGURED YOU'D FIGURE.
YOUR CALL, OF COURSE.
Y'ALL WANNA PLAY LIKE THIS, MAN, WE GOTTA APPEAR BEFORE A MAGISTRATE.
[ Laughing .]
[ Martinez .]
KEEP RUNNING IT, JAMAL.
WE'LL TAKE A LOOK AT HOW MANY YEARS YOU'VE BEEN 15.
YO, GO AHEAD.
CHECK MY BIRTH CERTIFICATE, MAN.
YEAH.
WHERE'S IT GOING ANYWAY? WE AIN'T DO NOTHIN' WRONG.
MAYBE YOU'RE NOT TOO KEEN ON HAVING YOUR CERTIFICATE LOOKED AT TOO, HUH, WARREN? ALL WE'RE LOOKING FOR IS A LITTLE COOPERATION, IF YOU GUYS WOULD STOP STYLIN' FOR A MINUTE.
- WELL, LET'S HEAR IT.
- A GUY WE KNOW LOST HIS WALLET.
WE'RE NOT LOOKING TO JAM ANYONE FOR THAT, PUT ANYTHING IN EVIDENCE.
ALL WE WANT IS AN IDEA WHERE YOU GUYS WOULD GUESS-- [ Yawns .]
IF SOMEONE LIKE THAT DID LOSE A WALLET, WHERE WOULD WE GO TO LOOK FOR IT? YO, I DON'T WHAT Y'ALL TALKIN' ABOUT.
WHEN THE GUY LOSE IT? YESTERDAY, AROUND THE PUBLIC THEATER.
GAVE IT UP TO A GUY STOPPING HIS FRIEND'S SEIZURE.
GUY WHOSE WALLET IT WAS FORGOT TO ASK FOR IT BACK.
THERE'S AN OPEN BUILDING AROUND THE CORNER ON FOURTH STREET.
IT HAS AN EMPTY BASEMENT.
WE COULD LOOK THERE.
GUY MIGHT STILL HAVE HIS PERSONAL EFFECTS.
MIGHT-- MIGHT BE DOWN THERE.
YEAH, WELL, YOU KNOW, NOBODY PUT A GUN TO MY HEAD, RIGHT? YEAH, SURE.
SAME PLACE AS BEFORE.
YEAH.
GOOD.
- GET MY SECOND GUN BACK? - YEAH.
YEAH, I'LL GET IT BACK.
LOOK, LIEU, UH, YOU DON'T WANNA HEAR ME TELL 'EM WHAT'S GOING ON, YOU OUGHT TO WALK AWAY.
DO WHAT YOU FEEL IS RIGHT.
WHO BROUGHT YOU BACK? F.
B.
I.
SCUMBAGS.
SO ME AND DIANE, WE'RE OUT AT DINNER.
THIS GUY JOEY SALVO SENDS OVER A BOTTLE OF WINE.
THE STICKUP GUY? WHICH ME AND HIM KNOW EACH OTHER GROWING UP.
TURNS OUT THE F.
B.
I.
HAS HIM UP.
THEY ASKED ME TO COOPERATE IF SALVO TRIES TO REACH OUT.
JOB SAYS WHAT? DO WHAT THE F.
B.
I.
WANTS.
SO SALVO REACHES OUT FOR A PEDIGREE ON A PLATE.
I RUN THE PLATE.
BOOM.
HERE COMES MARTENS FROM I.
A.
B.
"WHY DID YOU RUN THE PLATE?" BUT IT DON'T BOTHER ME, 'CAUSE I KNOW THE JOB'S GOT MY BACK.
- OH, YEAH.
- COME TO FIND OUT THE JOB IS LOOKING WITH F.
B.
I.
, DOES SALVO HAVE A HOOK AT THE RAT SQUAD? BUT THEY CAN'T TELL THE RAT SQUAD TO BACK OFF OF ME.
THAT WOULD TIP SALVO THAT HE'S UP.
SO BOBBY GETS SUSPENDED INSTEAD.
WHERE DO THESE F.
B.
I.
PRICKS GET THE BALLS TO CALL YOU BACK IN? THEY WANTED TO LET ME KNOW-- SINCE I'M OUT ON MY ASS ANYWAY-- THEY THINK THAT MY BEST NEXT MOVE WOULD BE TO TURN THE SHEETS DOWN WITH SALVO.
OH.
THEY WERE TAKING YOU THERE ALL THE TIME, BOBBY.
THEY KNEW IF YOU HAD ANY CHOICE, YOU WOULDN'T GO AS FAR AS THEY WANTED WITH SALVO.
TWO OF YOU WENT OVER THE INS AND OUTS OF THIS THING PRETTY THOROUGHLY, HUH? THEY SAID I COULD TELL ONE PERSON, ANDY.
[ Clears Throat .]
YOU DONE LETTING 'EM TELL YOU WHAT YOU CAN AND CAN'T DO NOW? BUT I'M NOT DONE LETTING 'EM THINK THEY CAN.
-[ Footsteps Approaching .]
-[ Sipowicz .]
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT, MARTENS? [ Clears Throat .]
I'M SUSPENDED.
[ Sipowicz .]
YOU'RE SUSPENDED? IS THAT RIGHT? YEAH.
THEY SAID SOMEONE'S WRONG IN OUR UNIT.
THEY DON'T WANNA TIP HIM HE'S HOT.
I GET SUSPENDED SO THE WRONG GUY DROPS HIS GUARD.
- 'CAUSE THEY KNOW I'M RIGHT.
- WHERE IS JUSTICE, HUH? YOU CAN TELL ME WHO THEY'RE LOOKING AT.
IT'S A TOUGH SITUATION.
I DON'T THINK I CAN HELP.
WELL, DON'T YOUR HEART BLEED? - YOU WANNA SEE IF THAT'S YOURS? -[ Highsmith .]
YES.
YES.
YES, IT'S MINE.
HANK, COULD YOU RELEASE THOSE PUNKS IN THE POKEY? SURE.
FAMILY PHOTOS, YOU SEE.
UH-HUH.
STILL A BIG MONEY WAD IN THERE WHEN WE FOUND IT, BUT WE TOOK THAT.
THERE WERE NINE DOLLARS IN MY WALLET, DETECTIVE, WHICH I AM SURE WERE TAKEN BY THOSE YOUNG THIEVES.
WANNA SIGN THIS? APPRECIATIVE AS I AM, DETECTIVES, I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT ANY OF TODAY'S EVENTS REFUTE OUR ARTICLE'S CONCERNS ABOUT COERCION OF SUSPECTS OR SELECTIVE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS.
THERE GOES MY NIGHT'S SLEEP.
THAT BIG VOCABULARY, MR.
HIGHSMITH, THERE'S GOTTA BE "GOOD-BYE" IN THERE.
QUITE RIGHT.
[ Chattering .]
UH-OH.
I THINK I FEEL ANOTHER ONE COMIN' ON.
- [ Grunting .]
-[ Jamal .]
OH, DAMN, MAN! HE BIT MY FINGER! OH, MAN! EXCUSE ME, MISTER, YOU GOT SOMETHIN'? CAN YOU HELP A BROTHER OUT? PLEASE! - HANK, GET 'EM OUTTA HERE.
- [ Laughing .]
ALL RIGHT, COME ON.
LET'S GO.
COME ON.
MOVE IT.
MOVE IT.
[ Laughing Continues .]
MMM.
IS THAT ON? I'M NOT GONNA WEAR IT.
I'M GONNA BE TRANSMITTING ALL OVER THE PLACE.
I GONNA HAVE THEM GIVE ME A BODY RECORDER.
WHAT YOU GOTTA DO, STOP LETTIN' 'EM MOVE YOU AROUND.
YEAH, OKAY.
IF THIS IS THEIR GAME, BOBBY, YOU'RE SCREWED.
YOU MAKE IT SO THERE IS NO GAME.
WE GOTTA PUT STINK ON THE OPERATION.
WE HAVE GOT TO INITIATE PREEMPTIVE STINK.
LIKE HOW, ANDY? HOW DO WE INITIATE THAT? YOU COLLAR THIS ASSHOLE.
BIG PICTURE IN THE PAPER-- YOU AND SALVO AT ARRAIGNMENT.
NOW YOU SHOWED YOU'RE STRAIGHT.
YOU'RE NO USE TO SALVO, THE BUREAU, THE RAT SQUAD, OR THE JOB MAKING YOU GO UNDERCOVER.
YOU'RE USELESS FOR NOTHING BUT US GOIN' BACK TO WORK.
ANDY, IF THEY KNOW THAT I'M AGAINST THEM, ANYTHING THAT I DO, THEY'LL TRY TO TURN IT AROUND.
HOW THEY GONNA TURN THAT? YOU'RE PUTTING BRACELETS ON SALVO.
HOW? SUPPOSE THEY PUT OUT THAT I SET UP THE COLLAR, AND THEN I ASK MONEY FOR SALVO TO DROP THE CHARGES? NO, ANDY.
THEY GOTTA THINK THAT I'M COOPERATING WITH THEM.
I WORKED THIS PRICK SALVO ON THE ROBBERY SQUAD.
THIS IS A GENUINE BADASS.
THANKS FOR THE TIP, ANDY.
I WATCHED THIS GUY TAKE OUT A KID WITH A BASEBALL BAT WHEN WE WERE 15.
CITIBANK STICKUP-- THREE GUYS FROM HIS CREW-- THEY SHOWED UP DEAD.
THE PIE DON'T NEED TO GET CUT UP SO SMALL.
THIS IS SALVO.
[ Knocking .]
I KNOW IT IS.
- THE SHRINK'S BACK? - THEY GOT YOU WEARING A KEL? I'M NOT WEARING A KEL.
I'M GONNA WEAR A NAGRA.
YEAH, THAT'S THE CHOICES THEY LEFT HIM, WHAT KIND OF RAT EQUIPMENT TO USE.
SIT DOWN.
WHAT A GRIM ENVIRONMENT TO HAVE TO WORK IN EVERY DAY.
YEAH, THANKS FOR THE BIG CONCERN.
WHAT DEVELOPMENTS WITH CHRISTINE? PAST BEING MURDERED? IT DOESN'T ELUDE ME YOU'RE BOTH TAKING PROVOCATIVE TONES.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT TREATING CHRISTINE FOR HER EMOTIONAL PROBLEMS ABOUT HAVING BEEN RAPED? SINCE THE PERSON WHO ATTACKED CHRISTINE HAS MOVED TO ANOTHER PART OF THE COUNTRY, I'D SUGGEST WHAT'S MORE PERTINENT TO YOUR HOMICIDE INVESTIGATION IS THE INCEST ISSUES WITH HER FATHER-- THE RAPE REEXPOSED-- AS I'VE ALREADY BROUGHT TO YOUR ATTENTION.
YOU SURE WANNA PUT PRISON STRIPES ON THIS GIRL'S FATHER, DON'T YOU, DR.
WENTZEL? MY WANTS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
YOU WOULDN'T HAVE HAD ANY "WANTS" GOING ON WITH CHRISTINE, WOULD YA, DOC? GOOD DAY.
[ Huffs .]
I'M GOING TO FILE CHARGES FOR WHAT YOU JUST DID.
MAYBE WE'LL SHARE A CELL.
WHAT IN HEAVEN'S NAME IS GOING ON HERE? THIS GIRL'S FATHER DIDN'T KILL HER.
YOU THINK NOT? YEAH, WE THINK NOT.
AND IF HE DIDN'T, THEN WITH THE DRAIN CLEANER AND SUCH GETTING FORCED INTO HER AFTERSHE'S ALREADY DEAD-- EVERYTHING BUT "A PLUMBER DID THIS" GETTIN' PAINTED ON HER FOREHEAD-- THAT LEADS US TO THINK MAYBE SOMEBODY'S FRAMIN' HIM.
AND THEN HERE COMES YOU, CHECKING IN SIX AND SEVEN TIMES AN HOUR, LEST WE FORGET WE SHOULD BE LIKING THIS GUY FOR KILLING HER.
I CHECKED IN INITIALLY TO INFORM YOU OF MY MISGIVINGS, - AND SUBSEQUENTLY AT YOUR REQUEST.
-[ Russell .]
DOCTOR, EVERYTHING WE'VE HEARD, THIS GIRL AND HER FATHER ADORED EACH OTHER.
COMPOUNDING HER SENSE OF BETRAYAL ON RECOVERING THE INCEST.
YOU KNOW, I'M-- I'M GROVELING TO MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT ANY COMPETENT PRACTITIONER WOULD-WOULD RECOGNIZE INSTANTLY.
- YEAH? WHY? - I'M GONNA LEAVE, DETECTIVE, AND THEN NEITHER OF US WILL HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR MY BEHAVIOR.
[ Mutters .]
THIS IS LUDICROUS.
I'M NOT EVEN GONNA ASK FOR AN ATTORNEY.
THAT'S HOW LUDICROUS THIS IS.
HOW DID YOU TRY TO HELP CHRISTINE, DOC? OH, AS IF YOU'VE ANY REAL INTEREST.
THIS YOUNG LADY FELT PROFOUNDLY DEFILED.
I'LL DISCLOSE TO YOU THAT THIS YOUNG LADY WAS A VIRGIN, AND ONE FELT DEEP SYMPATHY FOR WHAT SHE EXPERIENCED.
SHE HAD BEEN RAISED A CERTAIN WAY.
VERY STRONG FAMILY VALUES, VERY LOVING FAMILY.
GENUINE BELIEF IN THE COUNTRY.
AMERICA'S PROMISE.
DO YOU SEE? VERY TOUCHING.
I CAME FROM AN IDEALISTIC RAISING MYSELF.
VERY LOVING, AFFECTIONATE, DEEPLY MORAL PERSON.
- THIS IS YOU? - NATURALLY, I-- [ Sighs .]
I WAS RESPONSIVE TO CHRISTINE'S UPBRINGING AND-- AND HER QUALITIES OF CHARACTER.
I'M NOT A GREAT BELIEVER IN COINCIDENCE, BUT MISS LAKOS CAME TO SEE ME NINE DAYSEXACTLY AFTER MY MOTHER PASSED.
AND WHEN SHE WAS FINALLY ABLE TO DISCUSS IT, THE SEXUAL ASSAULT THAT, UH, SHE REPORTED BY HER FELLOW WORKER HAPPENED TO HAVE OCCURRED TWODAYS AFTER MY MOTHER'S PASSING.
THAT'S SOME COINCIDENCE.
OH, YOU CAN IMAGINE ONE'S REACTION.
IN SO MANY WAYS THE AGE IN WHICH SHE HAD TO LIVE FLAUNTED OR MADE IRRELEVANT.
AND IN THAT SENSE, DEEPLY, DEEPLY DEFILED HER VALUES AS WELL, AND SENSE OF HERSELF, JUST AS CHRISTINE HAD FELT DEFILED.
[ Russell .]
THIS IS YOUR MOM? SOME OF THAT FUELED MY EFFORTS TO TREAT CHRISTINE.
[ Voice Cracking .]
BUT I OBVIOUSLY WAS NO GOOD AT IT, SO THE CLEANSING TECHNIQUE, SO FORTH-- [ Bangs .]
WHAT ARE YOU, A HUNDRED PERCENT NUT JOB? - ANDY-- - WAS THIS ONE OF YOUR CLEANSING TECHNIQUES, KILLING THIS GIRL? - MY GOD, YOU'RE A SICK MAN.
- I'M A SICK MAN? WHAT IS A CLEANSING TECHNIQUE, HMM? IS IT POURING DRAIN CLEANER DOWN HER THROAT? OR IS THAT A FRAMING TECHNIQUE AFTER THE CLEANSING TECHNIQUE? WHAT IN HEAVEN'S NAME IS GOING ON HERE? IT'S OBVIOUS YOU'RE UNDER A LOT OF STRAIN, DOCTOR.
- WHAT IN HEAVEN'S NAME IS GOING ON HERE? -MY GUESS, SICK TWITCH YOU ARE, THIS GIRL REMINDED YOU OF MOM'S GREAT QUALITIES.
AND YOU WANTED TO DO WHATEVER "CLEANSING TECHNIQUES" GOT YOUR CHUBBY GOING WITH YOUR OLD LADY.
AND WHEN CHRISTINE WOULDN'T LET YOU, YOU CROAKED HER! -YOU THINK YOU'RE A PSYCHIATRIST.
- NO, I'M A POLACK DETECTIVE KNOWS YOU GET AWAY WITH MURDER, YOU LEAVE THE CRIME SCENE AND YOU GO ABOUT YOUR LIFE.
IT'S YOU-- YOU INTELLIGENT TYPES.
YOU ALWAYS GOTTA PROVIDE AN ALTERNATE SUSPECT, LIKE THIS POOR GIRL'S FATHER.
AND YOU LEAD US BY THE NOSE TO THEIR DOOR.
[ Hits Table .]
YOU DECLINED A LAWYER IN FRONT OF A WITNESS, DOC.
AND YOU AIN'T LEAVIN' THIS ROOM UNTIL YOU GIVE IT UP.
NOW, DO YOU WANNA SAVE YOURSELF SOME ACHES AND PAINS HERE? [ Knocking .]
[ Door Opens .]
DID HE GO? [ Lock Clicks .]
YOU TALK ABOUT CRAZY.
THEY STILL DIDN'T BRING THE NAGRA YET? IS IT ON? NO.
LET YOU ACT LIKE A MAN, THEN THEY TRY TO TURN YOU INTO SOME BOY.
WHO SAID THAT? SOME SKELL.
OH, MAN, I FEEL LIKE A WINDUP TOY.
YOU'LL BEAT 'EM, BOBBY.
YOU'LL PLAY 'EM AND BEAT 'EM, AND THEY'LL NEVER EVEN KNOW.
YEP.
NOW IT'S JUST DETAILS, RIGHT? LOCK THE DOOR TO THE SQUAD ROOM.
[ Siren Wailing In Distance .]
[ Both Moaning .]
[ Moaning Continues .]
[ Chattering .]
[ Phone Ringing .]
BOBBY.
[ Moaning Continues .]
HEY, YOU GOT SOME HELL OF A JOB.
YEP.
[ Scoffs .]
PUT YOUR ASS ON THE LINE EVERY DAY, PEOPLE THROWIN' SHOTS AT YOU LEFT AND RIGHT.
THEN YOUR BOSSES DO THAT.
ANYWAYS-- YEAH, ANYWAYS, I PUT YOU IN THAT JACKPOT, BOBBY.
WHY DON'T YOU LET ME LOOK OUT FOR YOU NOW? YEAH, WELL, IT'S NOT LIKE I'M BURIED IN JOB OFFERS, YOU KNOW, SO-- OH, YOU GOT NO JOB OFFER.
YOU GOT A JOB, ALL RIGHT? ALL RIGHT.
I APPRECIATE THAT, JOE.
YOU KNOW, FROM TIME TO TIME, WE MAY "TECHNICALLY" VIOLATE SOME LAWS-- [ Gunshots .]
[ Tires Squealing .]
- YOU ALL RIGHT? - ANDY.
GET OUTTA HERE! WHAT HAPPENED? I MADE A LEFT ON MULBERRY AND THIS IS WHAT I SAW.
WHAT DID YOU DO? OH, MY GOD.
OH, MY GOD.
- THEY GOT NO GAME NOW.
GET OUT! - WHAT DID YOU DO? -I'LL TELL 'EM WHAT I SAW.
- YOU GET OUT! I KNOW WHAT I DID.
[ Siren Wailing .]
- THEY'RE COMIN'.
WILL YOU GET OUTTA HERE? - ANDY, GET OUTTA HERE! YOU BETTER LOSE THAT TAPE.
[ Siren Continues .]
[ Siren Stops .]
DON'T MOVE.
