What a night.

What happened?

What did we do?

Should I worry?

You're a big help.

( Sighs )

( Chuckles )

Oh. That's a pretty sight.

Hey, uh,

you got any more stuff?

I got to get right.

I'm talking to you.

man:
Yea, though I walk

through the valley
of the shadow of death,

I will fear

no evil, for thou art with me.

Thy rod and thy staff,
they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies.

Thou anointest my head with oil.

My cup runneth over.

Surely, goodness and mercy

will follow me
all the days of my life.

And I will dwell in the house
of the lord forever.

Amen.

Amen.

I love you.

( "Amazing grace" continues )

( Typing )

Damn.

What's up?

It's just I had
a message yesterday

that Martin wanted to meet me
this morning.

He hasn't called to confirm,

and I can't reach him.

Oh, well, hey, you know Martin.

Maybe he had a hot
date last night.

he'd never let sex
interfere with money,

especially my money.

( Footfalls nearby )

Excuse me.

My sister, walking
personal problem.

( Whispers ):
come on.

What happened to you?

I woke up at martin's--
I don't know how I got there.

There was blood
all over the place.
What?

What have you
done, China?

I think I k*lled him, Jen.

martin's dead?
Yeah.

All right...
Go to your room.

Let me finish, and then
we'll talk about it.

Jen...

I feel really bad.

Do you think...
there's some codeine

in the cabinet.

( Police radio chatter )

Okay. Thanks a lot, ladies.

( Camera clicks )

( Police radio chatter )

Martin case.

Had a nice going-away party
for himself.

We found some long, dark hairs
on the pillows

some semen stains, and prints
evident on the Brandy bottle.

It's cognac, actually.

What's the difference?

About a hundred bucks.

Okay, these blood stains.

What do you think--
possible struggle?

No.

Blood here
and no place else.

Except here and the doorknob.

So he was k*lled here

and somebody got careless
on the way out.
Mm.

Hmm...

Bunch of b*rned matches,
no cigarette butts.

Ooh. dr*gs.

( Sniffing )

Phew... heroin.

And a very good year.

Possible drug k*lling.

Or a party gone bad.

Look what I found
in the bathroom.

Anything you get
off the computer

will be thrown out
without a warrant.

Well, I don't speak
computer, anyway.

Well, I do.

Remind me
to get a warrant.

Did you find
something you like?

Playa originals.

Very trendy.

It's just a bikini,
what's the difference?

( Typing )

About a hundred bucks.

( Police radio chatter )

Hey, where you going?

( Overlapping conversing )

Decker stark. Thought
I was done with you

when I left vice.

This just turned
into a bad day.

Well, your bad day just started.

Out of the car.

( Grunts )

I was just out
for a little drive.

Yeah, right.

We just pulled
a drug-related homicide

out of this building.

What's your
connection?

I'm just a private citizen
on a public street.

Unless you've got a specific
reason for hassling me,

I've got places to be.

Then you better get there
before I change my mind.

( Starts car )

( Tires screech )

So, you want to tell me
what that was about?

That was
about nothing.

You coming?

( Woman laughing )

Hi, are you
Sascha?

Palm beach homicide.

what are you,
about a size three?

Good eye.

Thanks...
It's my job.

And I'd put you at about a nine.

( Chuckles )

Thanks.

Do you recognize this?

It's a
special order.

I could make one to fit you.

Not on my salary.

Do you remember
who you made this for?

China McNeil.

Are you sure?

Positive.

Excuse me.

Do you know her?

Yeah... uh, she's tied
to that white trash

in the red corvette.

I tried to help her out,
and I thought I'd succeeded.

Two ghosts
around one m*rder.

You know,
you don't need a partner.

You need an exorcist.

( Camera clicking in distance )

( Phone ringing )

Rita, go home.

And do what, cap?

come in my office
for a minute, all right?

( Sighs )

Yeah, cap.

You got to take

a little breather to come
to grips with this thing.

Maybe a little therapy.

One of those
support groups.

Sit around twisting Kleenex with
a bunch of weeping widows, cap?

That's really not my style,
thanks.

I got to get on with my life;
That's what Chris would want.

Rita?

( Sighs )

Yeah.

Whatever you want,

you know that I support
you all the way.

Thanks.

Anything you need,

you just let me know.
Okay.

Thank you.
All right.

Holly:
How are you doing,
lieutenant?

uh... actually I'm
getting a little tired

of everyone asking
how I'm doing.

Listen, why don't you guys
bring me up to speed, hmm?

Okay, victim's a guy
named Martin case.

He came out of
the casino business.

He had a racketeering charge
a couple of years ago.

He comes up clean in Florida,
except for one minor detail.

He was Danielle Demarco's

business manager.

Ah-ha, there's

a familiar name.

Michael:
Oh, yeah,
big-time drug action.

I mean, set-ups
all over the place.

Never touches the stuff herself;
Always comes up clean.

O.C.B. Thought
they had her last year,

and then,
the evidence disappeared,

and then, the lead investigator

conveniently
fell or jumped

or was pushed from the floor
of an -story building.

Cop k*ller, huh?

yeah, but it's
just a connection, Rita.

You know, we don't know for sure
if it's
I'd like

your files on my desk
in minutes, okay?

Rita, hold on a second.

No, I'm chief of detectives--

I can assign whoever
I want to this case.

I'd like to assign myself.

I got to overrule you
on this, Rita.

price and Rawlins
are handling the case.

( Sighs )
well...

I guess that's
what you meant

by supporting me
all the way, captain.

Thank you.

I want a quick turnaround
on this one.

We already filed for a warrant
for Martin case's records.

We've got prints

all over the place,
a few probable suspects--

the lab's running
matches right now.

You don't have to do that.

China?

Hello, Holly.

The fingerprints,
they're mine.

we went out for drinks, uh,
then dinner in coconut grove.

Yeah, a great cajun place.

We had-- what do you call it?--
Like, soup

with all the seafood
and spices and stuff.

Gumbo?

Yeah, that's it.

And we had
a lot to drink,

gumbo?
And we were dancing,

and we must have danced
for hours.

Fast dances, slow dances...

Hey, China,
what happened

after all the gumbo
and the dances and the drinks?

Well, uh, we went back
to his place,

and we had some more drinks

and then, he made love to me
until the sun came up.

( Chuckles )

Well, in that case, you were
getting it on with a corpse.

um, the coroner
puts the time of death

around : a.m.

You had a blackout,

didn't you?

I think, maybe, I...

I can't remember.

i-i just know
that I couldn't k*ll anyone.

Oh, come on, sure you could,
you know?

You drank a lot of cognac,
smoked a lot of tar

had sex, got a little
rough, and then...

Boom! Kn*fe...

Comes out of nowhere.
No!

( Sighs )

I swear, I mean,
I came in here by myself

because I wanted
to help.

Then why did you leave the scene
in the first place?

I don't know.

I mean, I got so scared,
I just...

please, Holly,
you got to help me.

Please.

Look, I know you feel
a personal tug here,

but you got to be
blind to miss this.

You have got to understand

she suffers from blackouts.

Oh, come on,
I don't buy that crap.

Look, what do buy is
that she is a pathological liar.

She doesn't even know

what reality is, Michael,
so she invents one.

You want reality?

Fine, her fingerprints
are all over.

her hair color
matches the specimen.

So what?

And the victim is connected
to organized crime.

Look, she came here
on her own volition,

she is not a flight risk,
she doesn't even

have a motive...
That we know of.

Come on, Holly.

Even an L.A. jury
would convict her.

I'm sending this down
to county attorney.

Let them make the call.

You know I'm right.

Doesn't mean I like it any more.

( Sighs )

Hey.

Michael:
Danielle DeMarco?

Palm beach homicide.

Homicide?

Really? I'd have made you guys
for vice cops.

What was your relationship
with Martin case?

Why the past tense?

Holly:
He turned up

with a Kn*fe in his chest.

Martin's dead?

and you think
I had something to do with it?

It crossed our minds, yeah.

She's cute.

You should sink her in lucite
and make her into a key chain.

um, we're not done
with our little talk.

If you had anything,

we'd be on our way downtown.

We were hoping
you could

help us eliminate
you as a suspect.

Where were you
around : a.m.

Night before last?

Now you're starting to bore me.

If you want to talk,
get a warrant.

Wow.

stark:
Easy, baby, easy.

I'm here now, and I'm gonna
take good care of you.

Hey.

Hey, what the hell
is going on here?

Made her bail,
I'm taking her out of here.

No way!

Whoa! Let it go.

Let it go, partner.

My lawyers gonna
rip you to shreds.

Just lay off, all
right, cockroach?

China, listen to me.

If you go with him
this time,

you have blown it with me
for good.

( Sighs )
Please.

Try to understand, I...

forget her;
She's not your friend.

Son of a bitch!

Whoa, whoa, whoa,
we can't save everybody.

But I can't just let
her go, not with him!

You can't stop her, either.

Come on, have
a drink, baby.

I'm not thirsty.

You know what I need.

Come on, honey, you
know I don't keep
anything in my club.

Let's go to your place.

You take care of me,
and I'll take care of you.

You're k*lling me, baby.

But I love you too much
to let you k*ll yourself.

Well, isn't this
a Kodak moment?

What the hell
is she doing here?

She's got nowhere else to go.

Please, don't be mad, Jen

I'm not mad; I'm disgusted.

Look at you.

Leave her alone.

Oh, you should talk.

You're the reason
she is what she is.

No, please, don't fight.

I'm not worth it.

China!
no, let her go.

What?
you heard me.

We have more important
things to discuss.

Like what?

Get real, Jen.

( Starting engine )

( Tires screech )

China!

China, wait!

Oh.

Michael:
Yeah, yeah, okay, okay.

Just keep me posted,
will you?

Judge issued a warrant
for Martin case's records

computer guys
are working on it right now.

Get this: They're all in code.

Mob accountants
working in code.

I mean, whatever happened
to the little fat guy, right?

Green visor, ledger sheets.

That went out with cigarettes
and trench coats.

It's the lab report.

Clear set of prints
on the Kn*fe.

Hear a match in your voice.

China McNeil.

but, Michael, I am talking
absolutely pristine impressions

of all four fingers
on her right hand.

Someone wrapped her hand
around that Kn*fe.

we still got
to pick her up, Holly.

Let the lawyers
fight that battle.

So what are we waiting for?

( Rock music playing )

( Patron wolf whistles )

( Wolf whistles continue )

Hey, Decker.

How's the nod, man?

It's good stuff?

I can hear
my mother's heartbeat.

Where is she?

My mother?

Baltimore.

( Coughs )
where the hell

is China?

Gone. F.O.

Took off in my car.

Where did
she go, man?

she didn't file
a flight plan, man.
that's it.

You're going to jail.

Hey, where?

( Sighs )
She was sick.

She went to get well,
that's all I know.

Well, you better pray that
nothing's happened to her.

I do.

I pray that every day.

Michael:
You okay?

I don't want to see her
go down the drain, Michael.

Well, that's pretty much
up to her, isn't it?

Yeah, yeah.

Look, um, I know
I've been hard to deal with.

This isn't about China.

It's about my sister, Beth.

Your sister?

How does she
figure into this?

She was a junkie.

She was five years
younger than me,

more like a daughter, really,

because my parents weren't,
you know, around,

so I took care of her.

And she got hooked on the junk
when she was about .

I kept saving her,

she kept slipping, and...

And then one day she...
She slipped,

and she fell over the edge.

She OD'd the night I got
my gold shield.

You never get
over that, do you?

No.

No, you just get through it
and you get past it.

I'm so sorry.

Thanks.

You know, I'm the one
who should be sorry.

I have been wrapped
so tight...

Hey, it's okay.

Being partners means

never having to say
you're sorry.
Wrong.

( Laughing ):
Being a partner means always
having to say you're sorry.

Dispatcher ( Over radio ):
L , dispatch.

L , go ahead.

report a visual
on your red corvette.

Suspect vehicle is located
in the alley

off the block of division.

- , L , L responding.

That's only a few blocks
from here.
Let's hit it.

( Siren blaring )

China!

China, damn it!

Get her out, get her out.
Come on.

Come on, come on,
watch her head.

I got it, I got it.
Watch her head.

Okay, okay.

There's no pulse, call - - !

( Dials cell phone )

Come on, China.

It's detective price,
palm beach homicide.

I have a possible narcotics OD.

In respiratory
arrest

at east
division street,

west palm.

Does she have a pulse?

Her pulse is weak and irregular,
no air exchange

continuing rescue breathing.
all right.

Did you get that?

come on, China,
damn it, come on!

( Coughing )

That's it baby,
that's it, that's it.

Oh. That's it.

good for you.
( Coughing )

( Siren blaring )

Hey... oh, come on.

You saved her
life, you know?

Yeah.

( Sniffles )

But for how long?

What are you guys
doing here?

Michael:
We brought you in.

Woman ( Over pa system ):
Dr. DeLuca to neurology...

How'd you know? I mean...

How'd you find me?
It's not important.

( Chuckles )
wow!

Talk about a train wreck.

First,
I wake up in bed

with a dead guy, and
then I end up here.

You feeling better?

Oh, yeah, great,
never better.

Look, China,

whoever k*lled Martin case
did it knowing

that you'd be with him,
and that you'd black out.

It's a classic set-up.

I can't remember it.

It's gone, wiped clean, blank.

Help us
get back there.

if you can
remember that night...

But I don't.

Hospitals give me
the creeps.

Too many sick people.

I got to get out.

Where are
you going?

I don't know, just...

Out.

Okay.

Okay, okay...

Why don't we go back
down to that alley?

Maybe then, you can finish
the job you started.

Huh?

Come on, my treat.

That's not what I want.

What do you want, China?

I want you to leave me
the hell alone.

I'm sick-- don't you get it?
I'm sick!

Yes, but you can
get better!

If you want to.

You don't know
what it's like.
No.

No, I haven't
walked in your shoes,

but I know that path.

And I know
that it's rocky

and it's slippery as
hell, but I also know

that you can get over it.

You can do it,
I know you can.

Don't you think
I've tried?

Look, I am willing...
To reach out to you

but you've got
to help me.

It's up to you...

Please, reach out to me.

( Woman speaking indistinctly
over pa system )

You look fabulous, dear.

How are you, Holly?

Jennifer, this
is my partner

detective price.
Hi.

Jennifer McNeil.

Are you happy, China?

The police are
in our lives.

That must make you
feel very proud.

I'm sorry.

Are you?

You don't look sorry.

You look pathetic.

Well, she's had a tough day.

You see, she's had a lot
of tough days.

She still doesn't quite seem
to get it.

There's an awful lot
of people out there

that have tried
to help.

Isn't that right, Holly?

I know you've tried.

Tried?
Have I ever.

I've tried tough love, no love,

lots of love.

You name it, I've done it.

If there's anything else
out there,

just tell me,
and I'll do it.

This is not about dr*gs
this time.

We're dealing with a homicide.

Well, isn't that lovely?

You're really moving up
in the world, China.

We think she might be
a material witness.

Last I heard, she was a suspect.

No, we think she was set up.
really?

Where are you taking her, then?

Back to the crime scene.

See if we can't jog her memory
a bit.

( Laughs )
The queen of blackouts.

Good luck.

Hey, why don't you just give her
a break, lady?

Save the advice.

Look, we're trying

to get her into a rehab.

That'd be the third one
in five years.

Yeah, well, we think she's ready
this time.

Please, Jen...

I want to go with them.

I want
to try this time.

Really try.

That's amazing.

You can still break my heart.

Uh, can't we do this
some other time?

The sooner
you face this,

the sooner
we're out of here.

Can I have some water?

Yeah, sure.

You okay?

You remember being here?

Yeah...

just when I woke up
in the morning and...

He was over there...
all bloody.

Relax,
relax, China.

All right.

I want you to take me
through this night

frame by frame.

Dinner, uh...

A really fancy French place
in Miami.

whoa, what happened
to gumbo in coconut grove?

look, I told you,
I can't remember, this is...

All right, all right...

Relax.

This isn't pass or fail.

We'll go slow.

Thanks.

Let's forget about dinner.

( Both sigh )

After...

you're back here
at the apartment,

and then
what happened?

Why don't you
close your eyes?

sometimes that
helps me remember.

all I remember
is wanting to get high.

Martin had the tar.

We smoked some...
Cooked some up.

But he wanted something, too.
all right.

all right,
so you went to bed with him.

I needed
to get high,

and, uh... he was... nice.

After that?

You're both asleep.

There's
someone else here.

Take your time.

someone...
Someone's taking my hand...

And squeezing it shut.

I can't, I can't see them...

I can't...
Focus, China-- who was
in the room with you?

Someone...

Lots of hair, dark hair--
lots of long, dark hair.

All right, you see him,
who is it?

I don't know! Look...

I can't do this.

Leave me alone.

( Door slams )

Long, dark hair.

Danielle DeMarco?

I mean, maybe

she caught him skimming,
decided to punish him?

no. She seems
more like the type

who'd hire someone
to deal out her punishment.

Decker stark's
got long, dark hair.

And he has a thing for China.

That would give
him a motive, too.

If he found out Martin case

was swapping dr*gs
for sex with China?

So, pick a drug dealer.

Yeah, no kidding.

Decker, Danielle...

Jen:
Don't stop.

Don't ever, ever stop...

( Giggling )

I love you.

I love you so much.

Don't go there, babe.

But I do love you.

Tell me
you love me, too.

I just need to hear it,
even if you don't mean it.

If that's
what you want...

Yes, baby, say it.

( Flatly ):
I love you.

I love you, Jennifer.
( Laughing )

I love you.

Well, all the world's a stage,
huh, kids?

( Groaning )

What the hell
are you doing here?

Trying to save my ass,
Casanova.

I can see you're
up to your old tricks.

Jennifer, what would your little
sister say?

Ask me if I give a damn.

I want my money
out of the cleaners.
What?

When?

Immediately.

now, yesterday.
It's all tied up!

I can't just liquidate
like that at a moment's notice.
She's right.

There's too much heat
after martin's m*rder.

You wouldn't happen to know
anything about that,

would you,
Danielle?

You are so full of it, Decker.

Martin was my friend.

Friends k*ll each other
all the time.

( Chuckles )
we ought to have
a drink one day, Decker.

Just to see

who carries
a bigger stick.

( Chuckles )
I'm sure you'd win
that contest.

hours, Jennifer.

You're asking
the impossible.

I can't get your money
out of my businesses

for a month, minimum!

If you could just...
it sounds like

a personal problem--
just do it.

Drink this.

Orange juice?

I don't think
I can keep it down.

Yeah, it's got
karo syrup in it.

It helps with the shakes.

( Sighs )

You're doing great.

No, you are.

I'm just along
for the ride.

You know, it only works
if you want it to, China.

I can't do it for you.

I know.

You must miss
your sister a lot.

Yeah, I do.

Yeah, she was, um,
she was way too young to die.

Way too young.

I'm not afraid to die.

Sometimes
I wish I would.

Well, if you
keep this up,

you're going
to get the chance.

I'm telling you,

there is nothing
romantic about it.

It's ugly
and repulsive

and meaningless.

You need to go
to the bathroom?
Mm-hmm.

Come on, right here.

( Knock at door )
yeah, who is it?

It's Michael.

hey.
Hey.

Where's China?

She's getting sick.

Oh.

They cracked the codes
on case's books.

It's about money laundering.

And the owner
of the cleaners?

Jennifer McNeil.

Jennifer?

How does she
tie into this?

Well, she runs Decker
and Demarco's drug profits

through her legitimate
businesses.

You think China
knows about this?

It's doubtful, I mean,
she barely knows her own name.

And the dark hairs

that we recovered
from the scene?
Yeah?

Dacron.

From a synthetic wig.

That's right.

Whoever set up China
was wearing a disguise.

Well, she's
going to be happy

to hear about that.

Mmm, yeah.

Hey, China.

( Knocking )

China?

( Knocking )

Is there a problem?

( Door opens )
( Water running )

She's gone,
out the window.

Come on,
we got to go.

( Panting )

China, stop!

Michael:
china!

( Tires screeching )

What the hell?

Are you trying
to k*ll yourself?

( Weeping )
Holly, please,
I'm so sick...

Yeah, yeah? So am I!

You know, you are going

straight into
a rehab right now.

No more B.S.

I just... I don't
think I can make it.

Michael:
Look, you're gonna

shake this out
down at woman's central,

because we can't baby-sit
you anymore.

I want to get better,
I really do.

I'm just...
I'm just so afraid.

Sure you are.

There are no guarantees, babe.

But you have to really,
really want this.

I do.

More than anything...

Please, help me.

Please.

( Sobbing )

okay, honey,
just hold that.

who do we notify
in the event of an emergency?

an emergency?
What emergency?

Oh, you know...

walls melting,
bugs crawling, the usual.

You can call me.

holly Rawlins,
palm beach P.D.

Is she in custody?

No, this is strictly voluntary.

We just gave her
a ride.

( Sighs )

Rita?

Yeah?
What are you doing?

I decided it was time

to get a little order
around here.

I'm gonna start with my files.

Oh, fine, do you want somebody
to help you with those?

No, I am
the only one

who knows where they go.

I got to do this

all by myself.

Rita, the files can wait.

I got to
get this behind me,

otherwise, I'm just gonna
have this hanging over my head.

yeah, fine.
Whatever you want.

You know what, captain?

Don't patronize me, okay?

I wasn't, Rita, I was...

Okay.

Look, I have got

a big caseload here,
I've got a lot of files

that I have got to get in order

otherwise, I'm going
to be falling behind...

I know, Rita.

I miss him, too.

( Sighs )

( Drops object )

So, how would you rate
china's chances?

Statistically,
about a hundred to one.

Well, how about
instinctively?

God, I don't know.

You can hope,
you can pray,

but you never
know for sure.

( Phone ringing )

Price.

Where?

( Police radio chatter )

Ahh...

All right, one fresh
track on her on arm.

No other marks on her.

Here we go.

I'll be damned.

Would you look at
that, a bloody glove.

So, the thieves fall out.

k*ller takes out Martin,
pins it on China.

So far, so good.
Right.

but then things
get a little hot,

and Danielle, she gets nervous.

She's got
to go, too.

but only after China
gets set up as su1c1de.

China didn't OD Herself,
someone helped her.

listen, if China
remembers anything...

She's still
a thr*at.

To who, to Decker?

Jennifer?

The k*ller wore a dark wig.

So... it's
the only one

without dark hair.

Hang tight, I'm sending someone
to pick you up

and get you to a meeting.

Hold on a second.

China's gone.

What are
you saying?

She left.

split, out the door,
against medical advice.

How long ago?

Maybe minutes.

Just like that?
Alone?

No, her sister came for her,
said she was

taking her home.

China:
Why are you doing this?

Jennifer:
'cause I know
you're sick.

I just want to
make you feel better.

I'm going to take you
to a beautiful place.

Full of magic.

Here you go, baby.

What are you doing?!

Just giving her
what she wants.

What are you, crazy?

you want to k*ll her?
As if that would be

such a great loss.
china:
I'm sorry.

I love you, Jen.
Save it.

You don't even have
the brain cells

to know what love is.

Don't listen to her.

She's sicker than you are.

Decker,
you're such a fool.

you created her,
take a good look.

Are you proud
of yourself?

Come on, babe,
we're out of here.

I'm not letting you
leave with her.

Watch me, let's go.
why?!

Because I love her,
can't you see that?

No, you don't;
You love me.

You told me.
because you

begged me to,
you pathetic bitch.

I did it all for you-- for us!

Martin found out.

I took care
of him, didn't I?

you k*lled Martin?
What did he

find out, Jennifer?

That I was moving money

from Danielle's account
into yours.

You're a
multi-millionaire, Decker.

You don't even know it.

You used China as cover.
I had to.

She was in the way...
she was in our way.

Let's go.

You never have to come
back here.

( Police siren blaring )

Jen:
No, no, I'm not going
to let you do that!

( Gasps )

Not now!

Holly:
Jennifer, drop it.

Michael:
Drop it, Jennifer!

Don't make us
say it twice.

It's too late, Jennifer,
just let her go.

Back off!
I swear I'll k*ll her.

Either one of us
can take you down.

Now, drop the Kn*fe.

Not another step!

I'll cut her.

( Groaning )

Decker!

( Crying )

No.

( Sniffling )

How am I supposed
to do this, Chris?

How am I supposed to raise
our baby all by myself?

You... you promised me

that it would be you and me
forever.

You remember that?

I will always carry a piece
of you around in my heart.

I'm never going to let you go.

You know, I can...

I can feel you alive
inside of me,

inside our child.

( Chuckles )

I can't wait
to see your smile and...

Hear your laugh again.

I know you're with me.

I just...
I just miss you so much.

I just need you to come to me
in my dreams

and... just hold me
for a while.

( Car approaching )

( Sighs )

Ah... how
you doing?

We shouldn't
have to come here

to be with him, cap.

No, there's nothing fair
about this at all.

( Sniffles )

Rita...

He loved you
more than life itself.

He's never going to get
to see his baby, captain.

I've, um...

I've been trying to think
of the words to tell you

to explain
what I have to do.

I know your
heart, Rita.

You don't have to say it.

Where are you going to go?

( Chuckles )
I don't know.

I just know
I can't stay here.

I... I can't let anything
happen to the baby, cap.

It's the last piece
of Chris I have.

Anytime, anywhere,
for any reason,

I'm there, know that.

Okay.

Do you know how special
you are to me, Rita?

Oh, cap...

Yeah.

You'll call the minute
you go into labor?

Day or night, east coast
or west coast, you promise?

I promise.

You know, Chris and I wanted
to ask you and Frannie

if you would be
the godparents.

We thought you'd never ask.

Good.

Rita?

Yeah.

Please...

Please take care
of yourself, Rita.

You're taking a big piece
of my heart with you.

I love you, Harry.

Rita, I love you.

You, um...

You give Fran
a kiss, okay?

Sure.

Bye.
