[theme music]

[coughing]

[panting]

[panting]

[panting]

Hey, Carmen.

[speaking in foreign language]

Look, I'm sorry to wake you.

I-- I thought you'd be up, getting ready for work.

No, everything's cool.

Yeah.

Listen, uh...

Do you think you could pick me up

another one of those prescriptions?

It's not a habit.

It's only the third time.

Please.

Thank you.

Okay.

I love you.

[instrumental music]

Where's Ed?

He didn't call you?

No, I wasn't home last night.

I left my phone in the car.

Hm, romance is distracting.

Torres had something personal. I don't think it was romance.

He'll meet us at the precinct.

The girl's name is Krista McCauley.

Krista McCauley. Isn't that that, um...

- Supermodel? Damn. - Mm-hm.

Someone sliced that beautiful face up?

[knocking on door]

- How's it going? - Fine, thank you.

- I'm Detective Williams. - Hello.

- This is Detective Moreno. - Valerie McCauley.

- I'm John McCauley. - How do you do?

Um, we're going to be working this case.

We need to ask your daughter some questions.

Oh, please.

- Hi, Krista. - Hi.

Think you can talk about it?

[sighs] It was so sudden.

He was hiding in the back seat.

- Had you locked the car? - Yes. Yes she had.

We came together. She left without me.

Alright, so, we'll check out the car.

How do you know it's a man?

Yeah, well...

He seemed so big.

And, um...

- He was wearing a ski mask. - How about the eyes?

Were you able to see the color or anything?

Black glasses.

Black gloves too.

I keep seeing that knife come at me.

Oh, honey.

Moreno: Do you remember what it looked like?

It was long...

bumpy handle...

and...

five little holes.

Five holes. Where?

- On the handle. - Are you sure?

How could he do this to me?

Honey, oh, honey.

- It's alright. - Oh, my God.

It's alright. It's alright.

It's alright.

I'm really sorry this happened to your daughter.

Yes. Well, it was bound to happen.

- Excuse me? - I'm sorry.

The business that she got her into it's totally corrupt.

Please, John, let it go.

This isn't exactly an everyday occurrence.

Listen, Mr. and Mrs. McCauley--

Uh, please. We're divorced.

You don't need a detective

to figure that one out.

And Krista lives with you?

Yes. I manage her.

- And you, Mr. McCauley? - Doctor McCauley.

J.C.: Doctor McCauley.

I live and I practice in Minnesota.

- She got custody. - Man 1: Valerie!

Oh, God...

Oh, God. I came the minute I heard.

Poor girl. When can I see her?

Are you okay? Are you okay?

Valerie: She's just too upset

to see anyone right now.

These are the detectives.

This is Mizak Rezami, the designer.

Hi. Do you have any leads?

Is there any idea who did this?

Ah, we just got the case, so.

Do any of you have ideas?

Oh, God, I can't even imagine

somebody doing something like this.

Thinking about it, sure, I've m*rder*d

millions in my mind, but...

actually doing it?

What about, um, enemies?

Ex-boyfriends? Obsessive fans?

[chuckles] No, lots of people envied her.

Yeah and Don was certainly upset when she left him.

- Oh. - Don?

Yes, Casaloma, her former agent.

The king of sleaze.

Why'd she leave?

Because he's found a new 15-year-old

that's wetting his whistle.

John, cut...

Mrs. McCauley?

Look here...

It's-- it's very complicated,

but when she left him, he lost a lot of money.

And so now you're the manager.

Yeah, but that was Krista's decision.

She just couldn't work with him anymore.

[sobbing]

That's okay, Valerie.

So is this, um, Casaloma guy as bad as everybody says?

He's a meat man.

The prettier the meat, and the younger

the more people will pay.

You pay him.

He's got the best eye in town.

Do you really think he'd slash Krista

just for firing him?

Oh, God, you know, I don't even

want to think about it, but...

he was very angry.

Did they argue or fight? Anything like that?

Everyone argues, everyone fights.

Hysteria is part of the business.

Look, you know...

I have seen Don slap his girls

to, like, calm them down.

Alright, so is there anything else

you could help us with, Rezami?

"Zahmi."

Actually, you know something, detective?

There may be something.

Undercover as a model?

That's interesting. Who thought of that?

Rezami, he thinks it's a good way

to investigate Casaloma.

[laughing]

You got a problem with that, Ed?

Hey, maybe because you're ugly. I don't know.

See, unlike certain people

he knows talent when he sees it.

Casaloma's supposed to be the best in the business.

- Not for long. - Alright, alright.

Your physical charms are not at issue here.

We caught a celebrity case.

The press is all over us like cheap perfume.

The DA wants an arrest now

so, Torres, you take the Casaloma

interrogation with Moreno.

And Williams and I will be with you in a minute.

Bye-bye, cutie.

Now, it's a good idea. I like it.

[sighs] Yeah. I don't know, though.

These celebrity cases are a pain in the butt,

but if it's a good way in, then I'll do it.

Well, maybe you'll get a new suit out of it.

Alright, you do what you have to do.

I'm going to let Moreno work with the girl

and I'll give Torres that knife thing.

Alright?

So you were sleeping with Krista McCauley

when she was 15 years old?

It would be against the law.

I was her agent.

Let's say you spent a lot of time with her.

Managing a career takes a lot of time.

So why'd she fire you?

I found a potentially hotter property.

So you talking about Rena, right?

Another 15-year-old.

Would you get to the point, please?

I'm a busy man.

We heard you used to beat Krista.

You've heard wrong.

I slapped her a few times, but it was

when she got out of control.

I hear beating happens more in your line of work.

Oh, yeah? Well, maybe you'd like to find out.

Make you mad when she fired you?

[chuckles]

Look.

Losing half a mil a year

would make anyone mad,

but I got a lot of wonderful clients.

But none as good as Krista.

Mm-hmm.

People, I did not do it.

So you either cut me lose

or I'm going to call my lawyer!

I don't like him.

I want you to find out what you can

and nail this scum

and I don't care if it's for spitting on the sidewalk.

[intense music]

[instrumental music]

Well, Don, here he is.

William Sires.

Very street.

Lots of attitude.

And we love that goatee.

You have a portfolio?

No, man. What you see is what you get.

Alright, William.

Let's see you walk.

Walk where?

Just...

- Just be yourself. - Alright, man.

Um, shorty, you want to stand over there for a sec?

- "Shorty?" - [chuckles]

Go ahead. It's alright.

So I'm walking like I like her, alright?

[clears throat]

Yo, what's up, baby? How you doing?

You thinking runway here, Mizak?

I've got a still sh**t this week.

Runway's not for another month.

I don't know.

- Yo, man, I'm out of here. - Ah, look, Don.

I'm going to use him anyway.

And, uh, if you don't want the commission

then I'll just go to Arlene or Bruce.

Rena?

Take William out for a minute

and keep him company.

Sure.

He likes you, William.

I can tell.

Yeah, well, if he doesn't want my flavor

I'll take it somewhere else.

That's the attitude, man.

Never let them think you care.

You his girl?

Well, he helps me out.

Building my career, you know.

Word.

So, uh...

he used to go out with that girl Krista, right?

Huh! That was sure yesterday's news.

That was cold what happened to her.

It's a cold world.

[intense music]

Hey, hear from Williams?

No, not yet.

But forensics thinks that knife was a balisong.

Balisong? What the hell's that?

It's a Filipino switchblade.

They're ill*gal here, but you can mail order

from two manufacturers.

- You contact them already? - They faxed me pictures.

It's a sharp knife. Cut her clean.

They missed all the big nerves and tendons.

Hey, pa. Um...

You remember detective Moreno, right?

[speaking in foreign language]

Listen, I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to get back to you.

No, it's alright. I was in the neighborhood.

I'm doing shopping for the bar.

Maybe we could talk.

I'll take these to Krista see if she can make an ID.

Do you want to take a walk?

Yeah.

So how you doing, pa?

Me? Fine.

I never felt this good in years.

- How about you? - Hey, I'm all good.

Yeah, I know.

Look, Eddie, I've been accused falsely many times

so I wanted to be sure that I was right

before I approached you.

What are you talking about?

About what's going on with you and those pills?

Did Carmen call you? Look...

Because if she did, she doesn't know what she's talking about.

E-- Eddie, I'm an addict. I can see.

Yeah? What-- what can you see?

I see secrets, lies and sooner or later

I see somebody getting hurt.

Yeah, well, you should know about that, right?

Eddie, I don't want to argue.

Well, good, because I got a crime to solve.

Look, Eddie, you went to the mat for me with Adolfo Guzman.

You were a true son. You helped me to change.

Look, pa, I appreciate your input,

but now is not the time, okay?

Eddie, I'm here.

[instrumental music]

[instrumental music]

[siren wailing]

Hey.

Hey.

This is from your mom.

She'll be right in.

- Mind if I sit down? - Oh, no. No.

How you doing?

[sighs] I don't know.

Up, down, all over the place.

Sorry. I heard what the doctor said.

What, that I get to play the lead

in the remake of "Scarface?"

Woman over PA: Doctor Nagashima to cardiology.

Um, do any of these look familiar to you?

Yeah, that one.

- This one? - Mm-hmm.

Okay.

Guess I'm pretty lucky I'm not dead.

[sighs] But that would be too easy anyway.

Whoever did this to me wanted me to suffer

for a very long time.

[speaking in foreign language]

I mean, like, you could be my partner, man.

- Yeah, yeah. Torres: What happened?

Them girls wear you out?

No, those girls are fine.

It's that Casaloma.

That guy'll run through his mother for a deal.

- Word. - You think he slashed Krista?

No, he'll have somebody else do his dirty work.

He's got these girls taking pills like jelly beans,

but they're all prescription, so it's kosher.

You can always get some quack to get you that stuff.

J.C.: Yeah, One of them OD'd a few years ago,

but nothing ever came of it, so...

What'd you guys find out?

Well, the knife is from Centurion Martial Arts Supply.

I'm gonna check out their mail order records tonight.

- What about the car? - A gift from Casaloma.

No forced entry, so probably somebody had the keys.

Alright, well, I'll go check in with lieutenant.

[chuckles]

Sorry for the crack about the pills.

Hey, it didn't bother me.

I think it's getting to be a problem.

You, too, huh? What, you been talking to my father?

[chuckles] Hey, what's happening, big man?

- How you doing? - What's up, man? I'm alright.

So, uh, you gonna take it to the hole

with the Garden this year or what?

- Oh, yeah, every chance I get. - Alright.

So, um, when the defense collapses

as it often does,

please pass the ball to these two.

You know, that's consistency right there.

Why, you giving up your badge for a coaching gig?

Hey, man, somebody's got to get you there, right?

- We'll take care of that. - Mm-hmm.

Whatever it is that you do, do make sure

you get some sleep tonight, you got a long season ahead of you.

I know you ain't talking about getting some sleep.

Hmm. You like that, huh?

- Oh, yeah, it's good. - Mm-hm.

Well, is she part of your police work?

Well, whatever she's part of

I'm sure she's a lot easier to guard than, uh, Jordan.

You better watch yourself, J.C.

Nice Rezami suit.

You're not one of those cop on the take?

No, never that.

Just working a case in the fashion world.

You better be careful of those models.

- You can't trust them. - [chuckles]

Sure you're not living a secret life?

Nope, no secrets.

I'm just a cop and a father.

- Pretty boring. - And the mother?

Uh, we're just friends, you know.

I pay my child support,

a little more now that she's been laid off

and we make decisions about my son.

Maybe you'll get to meet him sometime.

I'd like that. Think he'd like me?

Well, darling, I really find it almost impossible

to imagine anyone not liking you.

So what about your secret life?

Uh, not as boring as yours.

Well, why don't you tell me about it.

You'll learn everything in time.

You just have to be a little patient.

Buenos dias, hombre.

Hey. What, no modeling today?

Eh, Casaloma doesn't need me

so I figured I'd see how the other half lives.

Mm and grace us with your wonderful presence, right?

Hey. You get through the rest of that paperwork?

Yep. And I think I found something.

Balisong delivery to New York.

- You get home last night? - I had to work.

Well, a place on 113th. October 27?

Wasn't that a week before the attack?

Moreno: Let's go. - Nah, he moved already.

- I checked it out. - Who is he?

Trevor Dixon, he owns a survivalist store

on the West Side, he's real nut for that stuff.

- Let's do this. - We got a rap sheet on him?

as*ault for hire, criminal possessions

and he's got an outstanding warrant.

I'm coming with you, man.

I don't understand this, mom.

I thought you were my manager.

Honey, I am.

But Don and I just decided

to bury the hatchet for your sake.

Okay, Don, you want to tell her the proposal?

I think you're going to like this.

It's real simple, darling.

Your scar becomes a motif.

A motif? In what?

In fashion. It's a look.

I don't have the faintest idea of what you're talking about.

It's for after the plastic surgery, darling.

You'll still have a little scar,

but it won't be too bad.

Give you a dangerous look.

Guys use it all the time.

[intense music]

So what, Don Casaloma says

that the "Scarface" look is in and it's in?

Yes. People listen to me.

I can make trends happen.

Everybody knows the world's dangerous.

You'd personify it.

Honey.

Why don't you just take some time

and think about this?

You know what?

Why wait till the plastic surgery's over?

If they want danger, let's show them danger, right?

Is this dangerous enough for you?

[intense music]

Torres: Okay. I'm pulling up to the back of the store right now.

Moreno: 10-4.

We're going in.

No, I don't like that one.

[bell chiming]

I'll look around.

You need something?

We're looking for Trevor Dixon?

Who's looking for him?

Is he here?

His shift's almost over.

I'll check in the back.

[indistinct shouting]

[siren wailing]

He's heading up towards Broadway!



Hold up!

J.C.: Move it! Police! Moreno: Hey, move! Police!

- Watch out! - [grunts]

Police! Freeze! [g*nshots]

You alright?

- He's alive. Get an ambulance. - [phone ringing]

Yeah. Moreno.

Oh, no.

Yeah, as soon as we can. But, we got a perp down.

We need an ambulance.

Uh, fifteenth and tenth.

Yeah.

Krista McCauley just tried to k*ll herself.

She took every pill she had.

Moreno: And Casaloma was here too?

Valerie: It was his idea.

Vulture, how many times

had I tell you it was gonna end up like this.

It's your fault as much as it is his.

We can do without the sermon, please.

The main thing now is Krista.

It always has been, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm not the one who's been using her.

Look. She's going to be okay, right?

I'm sorry.

Her stomach's been pumped. Eddie, she'll be fine.

I'm leaving too.

I don't even want to be in the same room with you.

I didn't think it was such a bad idea.

Ohh. Just a way to get her back on her feet.

Well, you're going to have a lot of time to think about that.

[mellow music]

[sighs]

That girl... she could have been dead.

- Right? - Eddie.

How could I let it get this far?

You're not dead, Eddie.

That's not gonna happen to you.

- You're stronger than that. - Oh, am I?

First pain pills, right?

No big deal.

And then, and then speed just so I could stay awake.

And then at night I had to take reds

so I could fall asleep.

It hasn't been that long. You can stop.

Krista's only 17 years old.

She's had bad people running her life.

The department's got a program.

- You checked, huh? - Well, that's what friends do.

I guess I'll, uh...

I guess I'll talk to Cooper, right?

Yeah.

[instrumental music]

It turns out Trevor Dixon, yes, is a criminal.

Only problem is, it's the wrong crime.

But the balisong was delivered to him, right?

Yeah, the guy who bought it covered his face

to avoid identification.

- You believe that? - Yeah. I do believe that.

He's over at Bellevue prison ward singing his heart out.

He would love to ID the buyer

because he's looking at 40 years on two other beefs.

- Maybe he cut Krista himself. - No.

He was upstate sh**ting paint ba*ls at his buddies

making the world a safer place

for males with double-digit IQs'.

It's only for a few days...

until the cravings go away.

I was taking chances out there

and you don't deserve that.

Well, now you have a clean slate,

but you could have come to me.

Thought I could handle it.

I'm your partner, man.

Don't ever forget that.

Anyway, what are they telling you you need to do?

[sighs]

I'm gonna be in a voluntary modification program.

Meetings, counseling. The whole nine.

Yeah, but it is just pills, right?

They took the edge off, you know?

Not just from the pain, but...

things I couldn't get out of my head.

Like your pops?

You know, I would come home

from school sometimes

and he'd be nodding out in his chair, doped up.

He wouldn't even notice that I was home.

So, what would you do?

I would go to my room and plan.

Jimmy prayed, Carmen studied, but I... I would plan.

I would plan on how to get the hell out of there, you know?

You know what? [sighs]

You made it.

Yeah, part of me.

Stay out, man.

[instrumental music]

Well, how are you today, Detective Moreno?

You're looking very happy, Dr. McCauley.

Pretty flowers.

Yes. Well, I can't help but feeling glad

that the worst is over for my daughter.

You're taking her back to Minnesota?

Yes. I've arranged for counseling

and I'm going to be lightening my workload

so that I can be more of a father.

Yeah, she'll need that.

I understand you visited Casaloma's office

a couple of weeks ago.

Please, detective. He was sleeping with my daughter.

He was giving her drugs. I wanted it to stop.

I understand that, but why two weeks ago?

Another tabloid article.

And I'm sure you'll hear this.

I threatened him. I didn't touch him.

I just told him he should be at the bottom of the east river.

Believe me, there were times when I could have done that.

Someone else would have just taken his place.

Yes, I realize that...

and there was someone.

Krista's mother.

[instrumental music]

These are the contracts.

I make all your deals, and for that, I get 20%.

And you are mine for two years.

Damn. Two years. That's, that's a long time, man.

It's standard.

Well, you know, I've been

thinking about thinking this over.

I thought you'd thought it over.

Yeah, and over again.

I don't have time for games.

However much Mizak loves you, your type's a dime a dozen.

- Yeah, and so are yours. - That's where you are wrong.

Sign it. Together we'll make a lot of money.

You know, uh, I guess if I sign it tomorrow

we'll make just as much, right?

- It might not be here tomorrow. - Sure it will.

- What's up, shorty? - Hello.

Did you get demoted?

No, stupid. She's on a coffee break.

Uh-huh.

You know, I heard you in there.

You should have kicked his a*s.

Why would I do that? He's just trying to get over.

Just like everybody else.

I guess you got pretty upset though when he, uh,

decided he was going to take Krista back, huh?

- Why? She's nothing. - She got a car, didn't she?

- What did you get? - I'm not old enough to drive.

Besides, he drove it himself, half the time.

- I'll get one when I'm 16. - Yeah?

Then maybe you could take me for a little ride.

Maybe. If you're lucky.

- You know what I think? - What do you think?

I think Casaloma sliced up Krista.

See, a real slasher would have hacked her up.

This guy just cut her,

but he missed all the nerves, all the muscles.

He cut her just enough to leave a scar.

Well, maybe it just happened that way.

Yeah, or maybe it was planned...

down to the millimeter.

Just enough.

Think about that.

Sweet dreams.

And your room's just the same.

I haven't touched a thing since you left.

You even kept the China dolls from the state fair?

I kept everything.

[chuckles]

Minnesota...

Well, maybe it is boring,

but may be boring is what you need right now...

and some counseling

and you know, just taking it easy.

[sighs] Yeah, maybe.

Thanks for being here, dad.

[instrumental music]

[intense music]

You can't think I did this.

Well, actually we do think you did it.

I was with friends all night in Soho.

Mm-hmm.

You know I'd help you out, man.

So why don't you do just that, Rena?

Why don't you help us out here?

You know he was using you, right?

It went both ways. Heh.

Mm-hmm.

What are you going to do now?

I'm a model.

I've got money and friends.

All I need now is a moving van.

Well, you know all the magazine covers

and the money in the world isn't going to make you happy.

Well, who are you? Mother Superior?

[scoffs] No, but I am a mother.

And by the way, where's yours?

My parents didn't love me. Okay?

They turned me out

and some creepy foster parents would be even worse.

I'm doing the best I can, lady.

You're on the streets.

You know, it could be a whole lot worse.

J.C.: What about the keys to Krista's car?

J.C.: He stole the keys from Casaloma a couple of weeks ago.

Moreno: Man, I still can't believe it.

You know, I kept asking myself

"Who gets everything he wants out of this deal?"

I thought it might have been another agent

with another model.

Yeah, well, people are crazy.

- Dr. McCauley. - Detective Moreno.

You've probably seen detective Williams before...

pictures of him in Don Casaloma's office.

- Little moonlighting? - Undercover work, doctor.

Excuse me, I was on my way back to my hotel.

Good. The police are there as well.

- We found the keys. - To?

- Krista's car. - Listen up, doc.

You should know that you have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be

used against you in a court of law.

You're under arrest for the m*rder of Don Casaloma

and as*ault against your daughter, Krista.

I'd like to be the one to explain

my reasons to my daughter.

That's probably the last thing in the world she needs.

Ever since I was 25

I've been saving people with these hands.

I've even forgotten how many other lives I've saved.

And now you use those same hands to slice your daughter's face...

cut her up like she's a piece of meat.

That was your child.

Yes, but I cut perfectly.

I missed all the major nerves and muscles.

I simply did what was necessary

to get her out of that horrible business.

And I succeeded.

And you're smiling about this?

You know, I have a daughter who's a couple of years

younger than your daughter

and I've been through things with her

you can't even imagine

and the funny thing is, I know how you feel.

I think in your sick, twisted way

you thought you were protecting her.

See, I know Krista.

In six months, she would have been dead.

The clubs, the drugs, the sex...

and if that didn't k*ll her body

it would have destroyed her spirit.

So you're going to use that as your defense?

It's the truth.

Anyway, what does the law care?

The law gave her back to her mother

who pimped her out to Casaloma.

What does the law care what she'd be in ten years?

I had no choice.

I saved her life.

- You know I did. - So you got what you wanted.

Why'd you have to k*ll Casaloma?

Oh. Well, that was my gift to society.

Like an inoculation for the plague.

It's a good thing you're a doctor.

You're going to catch a great job up in Attica.

Take him to booking.

I didn't think it could get much worse for you.

I'm sorry to be the one to...

Well, you know.

I thought it myself a couple times.

Yeah.

Just for a second and then it went away.

He never was mad, though

and that's what didn't fit.

- Mad at who? - Mad at whoever did this to me.

He just kept saying that he felt bad

and that he wanted everything to be alright.

I guess he thought it was.

Well, is there anyone you can call?

Um...

I have an aunt who lives by the lake in Minnesota, and...

Well, she's always been good to me.

Will she come get you?

I think I'll go alone.

I got to start doing for myself, you know?

But don't shut out the world, Krista.

I mean, this stuff here is extreme... weird.

You got your whole life in front of you.

I guess I'll think about that by the lake.

It's not just your face.

It's going to take time.

I got to go.

Um... let me know how you're doing.

Okay.

You take care.

Thanks.

Eddie.

How you doing?

Truth, pa?

Always.

It's the new rule.

I'm feeling kind of shaky.

Yeah, well...

I'd offer you a drink...

but I don't think that's what you want.

Isn't tonight the night that you go, uh...

To the meeting? Yeah.

Yeah. I thought so.

I-- I thought I remembered that.

Actually, I was on my way.

You need a lift?

Is that what you want?

Yeah.

That's what I want.

Come on.
