Andy:
previously on nypd blue...

What are you thinkin’?
Don could be dead.
Simmons might have k*lled him.

We don’t know that.

Oh, god. Oh!

Harrison was convinced his wife
was having an affair

With a detective in the squad.
Do you know anything about it?

I run a clean squad.

If you want to waste your time
trying to prove otherwise,

Be my guest.

No point in that, is there?

Would you mind if the rest
of us joined you and connie?

I appreciate it, but if you
have something else to do...

Squad sticks together.
We’re a team.

You’re on the team.

I think that your mom is ill,

And that she
needs medical help,

But you gotta tell me
what she’s doing to you

To make that happen.

Does she touch you?

I guess.

How long I gotta be
at this place?

A few days ‐‐ till things
settle out with your mom.

Who’s clark?

Me.

And you’re james?
Yeah.

Come on, we’ll get you
something to eat.

See you soon, james.

What did we just do?

Victim’s josie toms.
Fiancé walked in on it.

Perp bailed out the window,
fled down the fire escape.

What’s the fiancé’s name?

Ray morrison.

Hi, josie.

Detectives connie mcdowell,
rita ortiz.

Ray: she’s pretty
freaked out right now.

I’m okay.

Rita: if you don’t mind,
we’ll need to talk in private.

All you need to know
is lenny ganno!

Hey, take it easy.

Lenny ganno?

Yeah, it was him
jumping out the window!

I saw his face,
and I saw his ass!

He lives on ludlow.
He delivers pizza for damico.

How do you know him?

He’s my second cousin.
He comes over sometimes.

That son of a bitch!

Mr. Morrison, we really
need to talk to josie alone.

No, i’m fine.
I just want to k*ll him!

Just let them
do their job, ray.

Rita: mr. Morrison,
let’s step over here.

You can tell me
what you saw, all right?

Just take it easy.

What time did you
leave for work this morning?

I had to hold him back
from going after that guy.

He was gonna k*ll him.
Really k*ll him.

Connie: tell me what happened.

I was getting ready
for nursing school.

Then this lenny rings
the bell.

He says that ray borrowed
some tools he needed back,

So I let him in to get them,
but he started pawing at me.

And then he tackled me,
and I couldn’t get him off.

Did he have a w*apon?

No.

Did he strike you?

He tore open my robe...

And held me down.

And he r*ped me.

Is it normal for ray to be home
around this time?

He forgot his wallet.

And in the past, you’d only
seen lenny at this apartment

Or did you
socialize at all?

Why?

I’m just wondering how
he’d know you were home alone.

Ray: look, lenny ganno!
Lenny ganno!

Just go find him!

Mr. Morrison, you’ve
gotta calm down!

Are we done here?
He’s going crazy.

You need to get to the hospital
for a r*pe kit.

Yeah, while lenny
skips town, right?!

Look, we’ll have guys
look for lenny

While we’re getting you
to the hospital, okay?

Why don’t you go
put something on?

[ Sniffles ]

And we’re gonna need
that robe.

What happened to his eye?

He’s not saying. James!

Think maybe
somebody hit him?

I ask him who did it,
he looks at the ground.

Didn’t I ask you
to watch out for him?

If he won’t do his part,
there’s nothing I can do.

I’m not psychic.

Hey.

What happened?

Nothing.

If you say who hit you,
they’ll keep him away.

It’d get worse.

You don’t know that.

Did my mom see the judge
this week?

They say when she’ll
get out?

The judge said that she’ll
need 24‐hour care for a while.

How long?

Till the doctor
says she’s better.

A week? A year?

Hopefully, not too long,
james.

Did you talk to my
aunt irene?

Yeah, I guess she’s got a real
small apartment,

And there wouldn’t be enough
room for you.

That doesn’t mean
i’m out of ideas.

It’s been three weeks.

I really want
to get out of here.

[ Pager beeping ]

Uh, I gotta make this call.
Sit tight.

I got class.

James.

Yeah?

I’m not forgetting about you.

Okay.

I got you some magazines.

They steal them.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Her dog dig it up?
Yeah, but she didn’t
see anybody around here.

Her main concern is that her dog
might have caught some disease

From chewin’
on the corpse’s hand.

What’s up with crime scene?

They’re supposed to be
here by now.

We’ll start a canvass.

Morning.

What do we got?

You’re looking at it.

Female?
Or a kid.

Got a pajama top
on under her sweatshirt.

Wish I could just get it out
of there already.

Where’s crime scene?

Notified. Late.

[ Sighs ]

You stop by and see kilik?

Yeah. He’s
getting his ass kicked.

We gotta do something
for this kid.

Like what, take him home?

I don’t know, maybe.

You’re talking
out of your ass.

We put him there,
and he’s gonna come out
on a gurney.

You want to get yourself
worked up about it,

You get yourself worked up.

There’s nothing we can do.

It’s about time.

Missing persons says your d.o.a.
Matches a girl reported missing

Yesterday morning in
chinatown ‐‐ a wan yi kwan, 14.

Her parents been notified?

On their way in.

Mcdowell and ortiz?

Responding to a r*pe.

My sister’s
stopping by today.

Coming in from boston?
Yes.

I look forward to meeting her.

[ Telephone rings ]

John: 15th squad.

Gibson’s sons
were foster kids.

Eddie gibson?

He adopted them
out of the program,

And I know he took
in other kids.

He might have some pull
as far as placing kilik.

You’ll call him?

If it stops you moping.

Man: anti‐crime to squad.

Guy moving towards
the alley in a blue hat.

Not him.

Squad to anti‐crime ‐‐
not our guy.

I hope you don’t
think i’ve been rude

Not asking
about the funeral.

I wanted to respect your
privacy, so...

Thanks, but I guess
I put it away.

It was fine ‐‐ no major traumas,
a lot of speeches.

And you?

His sister called
a few days before

Asking would I mind
not speaking.

Ouch.

No, it gave me a chance

To listen to what the others
were saying.

You know, good things,
funny memories.

It took away
some of the bitterness.

I got a minute alone
with the casket, made my peace,

Closed the book.

Now you move on.

Right back
to the dating pool.

[ Chuckles ]
i’m kidding.

I know, but I have thought
about it, and i’m dreading it.

It’s pretty dreadful.

How do you deal with it?

I guess I just
take things as they come.

Thanks for asking
about the funeral.

Anti‐crime to squad.

Guy in a black leather jacket
and blue jeans coming your way.

That’s him.

Crime, move in.

Freeze! Police!

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

Okay.
Okay, no problem.

This how you always
get into your place, lenny?

I got a crazy man after me.
He’s trying to k*ll me.

What are you doing?

What’s this all about?
What did I do?

We’ll talk about it
at the station house.

Why don’t you have a seat,
mr. And mrs. Kwan?

Can we get you anything?

She not speak english.
Talk to me.

[ Speaks chinese ]

You filed a missing‐persons
report on your daughter, wan yi?

Yes.

[ Speaks chinese ]

It says here the last time you
saw her was two days ago.

Yes.

Where was that?

At home.

She was going to work
before school.

[ Speaks chinese ]

Was there a fight?

Was your daughter angry
when she left?

She no like getting up early
to go to work before school.

Had she ever
run away before?

No. Sometimes she
come home late.

American friends.

We’re gonna show you
a photo, mr. Kwan.

It may be your daughter.

Now, the girl in the photo
is dead, so prepare yourself.

Wan yi!

Wan yi!
[ Speaks chinese ]

Mr. Kwan: it’s wan yi.

What happened to her?!

We don’t know yet.

[ Shouting in chinese ]

My wife say, "talk to the boy
named travis henning."

He want to be wan yi
boyfriend.

We’ll look into it.

[ Crying ]

We’re very sorry.

Hey.

How were the parents
on your d. O. A.?

They gave us a boyfriend
we’re looking into ‐‐

Travis henning.

You find out why the d. O. A.
Was wearing her pajamas?

She worked at a restaurant
before school.

I guess she woke up
too tired to take them off.

John.

You’re early.

Somehow, there wasn’t traffic
on the ride from kennedy.

Everyone’s working cases,

So I need to introduce you
right away.

Lieutenant tony rodriguez,
my sister delia.

Nice to meet you.

Detectives greg medavoy,
baldwin jones, john clark,

And andy sipowicz.

John talks very highly
of you all,

And he always refers to you
as a good friend,

So it’s nice
to finally meet you.

Yeah, you too.
Good to meet you.

Okay, grand tour?

Can we get
some coffee first?

Sure.

Everyone seems nice.

They’re great.

Detective sipowicz has the son
you baby‐sit for?

Yeah ‐‐ theo.

John, I wanted to talk
to you about dad.

I knew it.

I knew you didn’t come down here
to see where I work.

I knew you’d ambush me
about dad.

When I talk to you about him
on the phone, you hang up.

I wonder why, delia.

He’s sick, john.
He’s really sick.

Please don’t do this to me.

Do what?
What am I doing?

I’m just telling you
that your father is sick

And he’s in the hospital.

He’s got congestive
heart failure.

He came to new york to see a
specialist at jefferson memorial

About the possibility
of a valve operation,

But the doctor’s
not optimistic.

It could be weeks.

It could be a few days.

I thought you should know.

Okay.

So now I know.

Whatever differences
you and dad have had ‐‐
differences?!

Considering what he’s up
against, maybe you should try.

Did he ask to see me?

I’m not gonna see him.
I’m sorry.

And you can tell him that
if he even cares,

But i’m not gonna see him.

If he dies, I just don’t
want you to regret this
the rest of your life.

The way he treated me,
the things he said,

Cutting off contact ‐‐

The only thing I regret
is not coming out to dad sooner

And getting it over with.

Do you know how much
this hurts me

That the two of you
don’t talk?

I know.

I‐i’m sorry.

I’ll send flowers.

I’ll send a card.

I won’t give him the chance
to reject me all over again.

Okay.

But do you understand
where i’m coming from?

I do, I just ‐‐

Okay.

Okay, so I think
I know what this is about.

The failure‐to‐appear warrant?
The parking tickets.

Partially.

I swear I didn’t skip out
on my court date.

I just completely forgot.

Where were you this morning?

What does that have to do
with the warrant?

Do you know a josie thoms?

Yeah.

You see her this morning?

Maybe.

Where’d you maybe see her?

This not about the warrant?

What happened when you saw
josie this morning?

Nothing wrong.
Nothing illegal.

r*pe’s illegal, or did you
forget that, too?

What?

r*pe?

I r*ped her?

So she tore your clothes off
and held you down?

Whoa.
Held her down?

She’s saying it was r*pe,
and your cousin ray,

Seeing you tear ass down the
fire escape, supports it.

No.

Tell us what happened
or you’re done, lenny.

She invites me over!
Check the phone records!

"Invites" as in this
wasn’t the first time?

Once or twice a week for,
like, two months.

Can anyone back you up
on that?

Just check the phone records!

You’re cousins with her fiancé.
It could have been him calling.

Oh, man, I didn’t r*pe her!

Yes, I was banging her,

And, yes, I scooted out the
window when ray showed up,

But did you see that guy?

He’s a psychopathic k*ller!

Ray’s a k*ller?

He k*lled a cat.

When we were kids,

He threw my aunt’s cat
against the wall and k*lled it.

I don’t want to end up
like that,

And i’m sure she didn’t either,
which is why she’s lying.

I swear,
I didn’t r*pe her.

You’re going in
for the warrant. Get up.

What about the r*pe?

You’re gonna be staying here
for a while.

Just keep your mouth
shut for now.

[ Handcuffs click ]

The number for jefferson
memorial hospital?

Never mind.

Hey, interview three,
will you?

Sure.

John: uh, the lieutenant
had to go to 1‐pp.

He wanted me to tell you

That the m. E.’S preliminary
report on the d. O. A.

Was manual strangulation.

All right, thanks.

Anything other
than the purse in there?

We got some comics
and cds, a sandwich.

Hey, hey.
Look who’s back.

John.

Good to see you,
detective.

Thanks for coming in,
gibson.

I was already out and about,
but next week, full duty.

What’s up?

Wanna talk in the back?

Following you.

Everything all right?

Fine, thanks.

This can’t be good.

Nothing like that.

Are you still involved
in the foster program?

You got any contacts
with them?

A few folks know my name.
What’s it about?

We got a 15‐year‐old boy
sexually abused by his mother.

She’s presently
in an institution.

Kid’s in a youth facility.

Where he’s having a real
hard time.

We’re thinking if he’s
not in a decent home soon,

He’s gonna get hurt bad
or lose his mind.

This is a good kid.
No record.

We came across him when his best
friend got m*rder*d.

Some tough breaks.

So you know anyone
who could help out?

You want me to make calls?
Is that it?

Or give us the names
and we’ll make the calls.

I’m getting the feeling
there’s more to it than that.

What more could there be?

You know my sons
were foster children.

I can’t help thinking you
brought me in here

To lay on the sob story
about your "good kid"

Hoping i’d
take him in myself.

You’re a million miles off.

Now i’m supposed to not
ponder this kid all night,

Not worry is he getting b*at
to death or losing his marbles?

That wasn’t anywhere near
the intention, gibson.

Well, it was the result, and I
just don’t think I can do it.

You know, it’s not even
my decision.

Mary keeps the house.
She’s the mom.

I have to talk to her,
and we’re not so young anymore.

For now, eddie, how about just
the names of who to call?

Yeah, okay.
I’ll get them to you.

I just, uh...
I got a soft spot for kids.

’Cause you’re
a fine american.

Don’t butter me up.

Thanks, eddie.

You know a wan yi kwan,
travis?

Yeah, we’re friends.

When’d you see her last?

A couple days ago.

Where?
I was walking her home.

Her parents don’t
remember seeing you.

I walk her till
she’s a block away.

I don’t deal
with her parents.

Why not?

They don’t like us
hanging out.

We did not have sex.

No, huh?

No, so if her parents or whoever
are saying that we did,

Well, we didn’t.

You happen to stop by
the vacant lot on 15th and c?

We walked past it.

You and wan yi duck in there
and not have sex?

No. I told you,
we never had sex.

You and wan yi get
into a fight about something?

Maybe she didn’t put
out for you?

We went behind a building,
and we started kissing,

And we’ve made out before.

And, you know,
I put my hand down there,

And she freaked out
and started crying.

And you kept her quiet
by putting your hands
around her neck.

No! She ran home.

We found wan yi’s body
in the vacant lot
this morning.

No way.

What happened, travis?

No way!

We can help you out,
but you gotta tell us the truth

About how it got out
of hand.

What? How what
got out of hand?

I didn’t k*ll wan yi!
Are you crazy?!

How’d her purse get
into your backpack, travis?

I’d hold onto it for her

’Cause her parents didn’t
allow her wearing makeup.

You got a temper?
No.

We looked at your record.

We read how you
sank a pair of scissors

Into a classmate last month.

What about he had a Kn*fe
and he was arrested, too?

Who’d want to hurt
wan yi, then?

Her family!
They hated her!

Why?

She was a second daughter,
and they wanted to have a son.

You can’t have three kids
in china or some kind of deal,

So they shoved her off
on her aunt.

And then her parents
had a son,

But when they wanted
to come out to the u. S.,

The chinese government
said they had to leave
with all their children,

So they had to take
wan yi back.

Look, they hated her.

Her sister was always
telling her to run away,

How wan yi was bringing
down the family,

And her parents were always
b*ating on her ass.

Her older sister
goes to st. John’s?

Yeah.

I didn’t k*ll wan yi.

I loved her.

Any luck finding lenny?

Yeah, we got him in.
Take a seat.

So what do you
want with me?

This morning, you said
you never saw lenny socially.

You sure that’s the truth?
Yeah.

You never called lenny
and asked him to come over?

Just you and him, alone?

No.

There’s some discrepancies in
your story that say different.

We got sources who say you were
getting together for two months.

Who said that?

I’d be more concerned
with looking at a collar

For trying to send a guy to jail
who didn’t do anything wrong.

There’s nothing wrong
with r*pe?

Only if it
actually happened.

What’s your relationship like
with your fiancé?

It’s fine.

Has he got a temper?
No.

So this morning, that was
the first you’ve seen of it?

He had a right to be mad.

When he gets mad,
does he get dangerous?

I don’t know.

Josie, lying about the r*pe
gave ray time to cool off

And get some distance
between him and lenny.

That worked
for the time being,

But now you gotta make things
right by telling the truth.

Or we’ll find somebody who
saw you and lenny together.

We’ll prove you’re lying.
Don’t let it get that far.

This was nothing
against lenny.

What happened?

Lenny lost his mom two
months ago,

And I was trying
to be some comfort.

You were having
consensual sex. Then what?

Ray came in, and he would
have k*lled us both.

So maybe I did lenny
a favor.

He might see it differently.

Am I still getting arrested?

We’ll see.

Write what happened.

Did you kick the suspect,
lenny ganno?

He’s a collar on a
failure‐to‐appear warrant.

And how do we feel
about collaring josie thoms?

Do it.

Her defense will say she
thought her life was in danger.

Well, mention how lenny ganno
could have got sh*t.

And she wouldn’t
have been in danger

If she hadn’t been screwing
around in the first place.

This is a grown woman
who knew what she was doing

And cost us
at least 24 man‐hours.

She’s a collar.

I’ll draw it up.

We’ll give josie the news.

Coffee?

How have you been?

Busy.

You?

Same.

It’s not right we don’t
talk even to say hello.

I guess we’re
finding our way.

I know I still got
some things to get past.

I admit, I could have handled
the pregnancy better.

I wasn’t ready for it.

We just hadn’t been
together long enough.

Maybe.

I still think about you.

I think about you, too,
but we need this time.

I should get going.

I’m gonna say hello
when I see you.

I’ll say hello back.

We’re very sorry about what
happened to your sister.

Thank you.

So you’re a freshman
at st. John’s.
Yes.

But you live at home,
yes.

So you were around?

I mean, you saw your
sister every day?

I guess so.

You get along
with your sister?
Sure.

You know anybody
who’d want to hurt her?

She’d hang out with trash,

And she had this stupid
boyfriend, travis.

Talk to him.

How were things around the house
for your sister?

Fine. Why?

She got along
with your parents?

Yes. Talk to travis.

Clark: we’re hearing that wan yi
didn’t have a happy home life.

We hear that you two
didn’t get along at all.

So?

I’m just curious why you’d
lie about that to begin with.

None of your business,
maybe?

Dead people happens
to be our business.

Okay. So maybe
there were arguments.

Over what?

I don’t know.
Things.

Over your parents not wanting
to bring wan yi out from china?

Did you tell your sister
to run away,

That you’d be better off
without her?

Yes, because that was the truth.
She was a stranger to us.

Now there are three
children to pay for.

Wan yi needed to leave.

At 14 years old?
She was ruining everything.

Did you have something to do
with your sister getting k*lled?

No.

Do you know anybody
who was involved?
No.

We’re gonna find out.
Talk to travis.

We are.

Good.

Now, I have a midterm
in three hours.

I have to go.

When a sibling’s m*rder*d,

Schools usually let
midterms slide.

I have to go.

Then go.

Connie: other daughter
give you anything?

Something’s up
with that family.

We need to talk
to the dad again.

Connie: medavoy and jones
are heading over

To talk to both employers
of the dad.

The m.e. Just finished the
autopsy on your d. O. A.

He found fresh scars on her back
crisscrossing older ones.

Could they tell how old?

No, but she’d been getting
b*at for a while.

I’ll page medavoy and jones,

Fill them in before they
talk to the dad.

John?

Come on.

Yes?

What’s going on?
What’s the matter?

Nothing.

Your sister comes in,
and since then,

You act like you’ve
been poleaxed.

What happened?

Is this about your,
uh, boyfriend?

My dad.

What about him?

He’s dying.

I’m sorry
to hear that, john.

I don’t know what to say.
Where is he?

Here.

Have you seen him yet?

No.

You waiting till end of tour?
Get over there.

I’m not going.

Why not?

We don’t talk.

I thought you had a good
relationship with your dad.

I lied about that.

I just didn’t want to have
to revisit the whole thing.

So you’re not close.

We haven’t spoken
in five years.

Over you being gay?

Yes.

Okay, now, listen.

Me and andy jr., We hadn’t
talked in a long time, either.

Each of us thought that
the other one was dug in.

I thought he hated me
because I let him down,

But as soon as I saw him ‐‐
which he took the initiative,

And I will always be
so thankful that he did ‐‐

All the garbage
just went away.

My father doesn’t
consider me his son anymore.

I just picture him asking me
to leave, having me removed.

John, you have a tendency
of over‐thinking things,

Going worst‐case scenario.


Because i’ve been hurt a lot
in my life, detective.

Yeah. I know what
you’re saying.

My mom and I were always close,
and she always knew,

And I guess she
was a buffer between us,

But after she passed,

The things he said to me...

Guys of my generation,
a lot of us,

We got our views,

And that’s the way it is,

But I do know
that if you were my kid

And we hadn’t talked
in all that time

And I could sense my ride
coming to the end,

I’d want to see you
if was able to say so or not.

[ Sighs ]

[ Door opens ]

Excuse me, sir.
I’m looking for mr. Kwan.

Mr. Kwan?

We need to have a minute
with you.

No time.

You need to make some time.

No time, and you need to go.
Make me lose my job.

We have questions regarding
the death of your daughter.

She gone.
Nothing I can do.

Still have wife and two children
to make money for.

Mr. Kwan, we’re gonna talk,

So it’s either here and you can
go right back to work,

Or we’re gonna
take a drive.

I told the other two policemen
everything already.

What kind of a relationship did
you have with your daughter?

Everything fine.

You ever have
to punish her?
No.

Who did?
No one.

Wan yi happy girl.
That’s a lie, mr. Kwan.

There were problems
with wan yi at your home.

No problems.

If you’re gonna keep lying,
you’re coming in with us.
I have to work!

And we have to find out who
k*lled your daughter.
Or do you give a damn?

I am sad, but I don’t
know how she die,

And there is nothing I can do
now except keep working.

You can also start
telling the truth,

’Cause your daughter
had marks on her back

From being beaten
over a long period of time.

Did you hit her?

When she come home late or wear
makeup like a whore.

When did you see her last?

Two days ago.
She not come home.

We call police
the next day.

We stopped by
your other job.

You were an hour late
to work two days ago.
Where were you?

Late because I
have two jobs,

And everyone needs money,
and I get no sleep.

And more problems
with more problems.

If there was an accident,
if something went wrong...

I don’t know
what happened to wan yi.

And now I have to work
or we go live on the street.

Clark: all right.

I’ll let him know.
We’ll see you.

Greg and baldwin said the dad
was sandbagging them.

They ask
about the whip marks?

He admitted he hit her,

But they don’t have enough
to bring him in.

We gotta get the mom
in here.

I’ll work on getting
a translator.

Detective sipowicz?
Eddie gibson.

[ Clears throat ]

How’s it going, gibson?

Yeah, you made
your point earlier.

All right,
but at some point,

Will you realize that nobody
asked you to do that?

Okay, let me see
if I can arrange that

And i’ll call you back.

All right, gibson. Bye.

He wants to meet us and james
for pizza later.

He said he got provisional
approval from his wife
to take the kid in,

But he’s gotta
meet him first.

Like an audition?
I don’t know.

What if they
don’t get along?

What am I gonna tell james then,
"tough luck. See ya around"?

Then he’s just back
where he started.

More like 10 steps back.

You want me to cancel it?

Excuse me.

Hey, what’s this about josie
getting locked up?

Sit down.
We’ll tell you about it.

I want to know where you get off
accusing my girl of lying.

She told you that?
She called you?

Josie!
Take it easy, pal.

Sit down, ray.

No, i’m getting her out
of here.
Hey, hey!

Ragh!
Aah!

Agh!

[ All grunting ]

Ohh!

Andy: again!

Ohh!

Is rita all right?

Somebody get an ambulance
down here!

Son of a bitch.

Grab him.
Son of a bitch.

[ Handcuffs click ]
man: ...an ambulance...

Tony?

Captain fraker.

Hell of a thing here.

Yeah, it was.

I heard mcdowell and rita ortiz
got banged up.

Both are fine.

Good. Wish I could say the same
for ray morrison.

I just got back
from the hospital.

He’s got 40 stitches
in his head.

I guess that’s the price
you pay.

Captain, we’re
working a child homicide,

So is there anything
I can do for you?

My guys interviewed ray morrison
before he went to surgery.

He’s saying you
b*at him for nothing.

He assaulted detective mcdowell
before anyone made a move.

Let’s say that’s true.

Did you really
need five detectives

And a fire extinguisher
to bring him down?

I guess we could’ve
drawn our g*ns and sh*t him.

Either way you cut it,
his injuries are excessive.

Captain, did you get
a good look at morrison?

When he was being
wheeled to surgery

To get his scalp
put back together.

If you’d have
seen him standing

6’6" Carrying
300 pounds of muscle,

You wouldn’t think
what we did was excessive.

Then let’s put that aside

And address him saying the
att*ck was unprovoked

And he just came in to express
concern for his fiancée.

His fiancée called him saying
she’d been locked up

Because we said she
was lying.

This is your side of it.

That’s the girlfriend’s
statement admitting it.

Mcdowell and ortiz
had a conversation with her.

Captain, I don’t know what you
think we got going here

Or what your beef is,
but this is legit.

Only the perp
will say otherwise.

Is there anything else
I can help you with?

No. Looks good.

I want a 49 detailing
everything that happened

On my desk first thing
tomorrow.

See you around.

Introduce yourself.
Tell her you’re gonna
be translating.

[ Speaks chinese ]

Andy: we’re gonna be honest
with you, mrs. Kwan.

[ Speaks chinese ]

We know you didn’t want to bring
wan yi with you from china.

[ Speaks chinese ]

And that caused problems
here in america.

We know that she was abused
for a long time.

[ Speaks chinese ]

We know this
from the scars on her back.

[ Speaks chinese ]

Now, we’re gonna
find who k*lled wan yi.

The people who help us
by being honest help themselves.

[ Speaks chinese ]

Those who lie
get hurt even worse.

[ Speaks chinese ]

You have a young son
at home.

You have a daughter
in college.

They count on you.

Don’t hurt them by lying.

Did your husband b*at wan yi
two days ago?

[ Interpreter speaks chinese ]

[ Speaks chinese ]

No.

Did things
get out of control?

Someone in your family
is lying,

And if you all try
and cover up for them,

Everyone will
be hurt ‐‐ everyone.

[ Speaking chinese ]

[ Speaks chinese ]

What’d she say?

She k*lled wan yi.

[ Speaking chinese ]

What’s she saying?

You’re supposed to be
translating.

Her daughter
tore her family apart.

They lost their restaurant.

Everything went wrong
since they brought her back.

How’d you k*ll her?

Hey, you’re supposed to be
keeping up here.

[ Speaks chinese ]

Is that a lie to protect
your husband?

[ Interpreter speaks chinese ]

[ Speaks chinese ]

"No, wan yi’s my fault."

Who buried her in the lot?

[ Speaks chinese ]

[ Speaks chinese ]

"My husband when
everyone was asleep."

That’s why ‐‐
don’t translate this.

That’s why he was late
for work, probably.

Was your husband home
when you k*lled her?

[ Speaks chinese ]

"No, this is my fault.

I gave him two daughters."

[ Speaking chinese ]

"When I had wan yi,

I should have done like the
others in my...village."

[ Speaks chinese ]

What?

She wishes she would have
drowned her daughter

When she had her.

So your husband or your older
daughter were not involved

In punishing wan yi
leading up to her death?

[ Speaks chinese ]

[ Speaks chinese ]

No.

[ Speaking chinese ]

"She brought a curse
to my family.

I had to stop it."

[ Crying ]

Valerie: and she’s
not covering for her husband?

No, I don’t think so.
Her details were exact.

Everyone’s story fits.

But we can charge the husband
with disposal of the body.

We’re inclined not to.

Because?

He’s a working stiff.
He panicked, covered
for his wife.

Clark: there’s two other
kids that get screwed

If they lose their dad
as well.

The guy’s working two jobs.

We don’t charge a man
for burying his daughter

And lying about it,
but we do charge a woman

For filing a false police
report while fearing
for her life?

Take a look at the squad.

That’s the result of her
dicking us around all day.

Your call.

I stand behind
both decisions.

Valerie: fine. Good night.

Right?

Absolutely.

Andy, it’s your frog
pencil holder.

Gimme that.
Aww...

Burial at sea or...

A little super glue.

She’ll be fine.

She?

He’s had it
for a long time.

Too long.

Hey.

Hey.

That’s your stuff?

Yeah, i’m all packed up.

Okay.

I shouldn’t have?

Come here.

I told you on the phone
we’re just gonna meet the guy.

Yeah, so he’ll take me in.

We gotta see how the meeting
goes before anything’s decided.

How the meeting goes?

We gotta see how you get along,
and you might not like him.

Anything’s better than this.

I hear you, but there’s
other considerations,

Like how he feels.

You mean maybe he won’t
like me, is that it?

We just gotta
see how you get along.

He’s not gonna like me.
Come on, james.

No, this is a bad idea.
I shouldn’t go.

You gotta go.

I just don’t want your
expectations too high

If it doesn’t work out.

Sign that.

Good for the night.

See you tomorrow, james.

All you gotta do
is be yourself.

Everything will be fine.

I’ll just leave this.

No.
We’re bringing it.

Come on.

Is he sleeping?

No, he’s up.

Did you tell him
I was coming?

No.

Do you want me
to come in with you?

No, i’m fine.

I’ll be right here.

John!

Dad.

How are you feeling?

Okay, considering.

It’s good to see you.

It’s good to see you, too.

This is a really good hospital.
You’ll get excellent care.

Good.

For so long, dad,
i’ve wanted to talk to you,

And i’m sorry it took this
to bring us together again,

But it would mean so
much to me

If we could put it all
behind us.

I don’t want to talk
about that.

If you came here to see me,
fine, i’m glad you did.

But if you’re gonna push your
lifestyle in my face again,

Then you should
turn around and leave.

I didn’t come here
to make you feel bad.

Good.

Then don’t.

You’re in my prayers, dad,

And I hope you
make a full recovery.

So that’s it?
You’re leaving?

You can’t talk about anything
else other than being gay?

It’s hard to communicate
with you

If you don’t accept me
for who I am.

How about you accepting me
for who I am, for how I feel?

I do accept you
for who you are.
I always have.

But never once an apology
for what you put me through,

The humiliation.

I wish the best for you, dad.

How’d it go?

I’ll call you later.

John...

[ Clears throat ]

Oh, jeez, here we go.

Clark: how’s it going,
everybody?

You remember my partner,
andy sipowicz?

And eddie gibson,
james kilik.

How’s it going, kid?

Nice to meet you, sir.

Have a seat.

Yeah.

Anybody have a preference
on toppings?

We ordered.
Pepperoni.

Is that good
for you, james?

Yeah, it’s perfect.

So, james, you
like to watch football?

Yeah.

Who’s your favorite player?

Uh...i guess
I don’t watch that much.

James is a pretty
devoted gamer.

Why don’t you tell him
about that?

I like video games.

What, like pong?

That’s an old one.
My kids had pong.

The noise drove me insane.

[ Sighs ]

I can cook.

[ Clears throat ]
what do you like to cook?

Uh, spaghetti...

Um, mac and cheese...

And, uh, ramen noodles.

All in my top 10.

Your mom didn’t cook?

No, I cooked for her.

I liked it.

Did you ever
use a sandwich maker?
No.

It’s like a shirt iron
for a sandwich.

First, you butter your bread,
lay on your ham and cheese

Or turkey, whatever
your preference,

Slide it in the iron,
flatten it for two minutes,

And voilà, grilled ham
and cheese.

I like grilled ham
and cheese.

’Cause you’re a fine
american.

I’m pretty clean, too.
I can do my own laundry.

Don’t worry about that.

My wife got the cleaning
down to a science.

So...you interested in coming
and staying with us?

Yeah.

Two rules ‐‐ living room’s
off limits.

That’s not just for you.
No one goes.

Break one of the boss’s
little glass unicorns

And there’s hell to pay.
Avoid it.

Okay.

Second, when you finish ‐‐
toilet seat down always.

That’s it.

Great, here we go.

All right,
I gotta head out. Theo.

All right, andy.

I’ll see you around,
james, huh?

Um, thank you for all
your help.

Sure.

Gibson: dig in.

Hey, we need
some soda, huh?

Gibson: three sodas.
