05x14 - Dr. Hoof and Mouth

Post by bunniefuu »

I went to dr. Rose's office
last night.

He puts me in the chair,
and while I was under

I believe he took
advantage of me.

I can't believe they picked me
for this dentist undercover.

There's nothing wrong
with my teeth.

- You mentioned 44,000?
- We're talking 44,

- We're talking
political stepping stone.
- When would you want me?

How long have you been
an addict?

All the time.

- Mama.
- You'll be by yourself now.

Maybe I'll see you
when you get out, all right?

I got this judge
to sign some papers

That make me your
legal guardian.

[Jablonski]
item 4...

After yesterday's
unfortunate incident,

Mike perez is on
indefinite suspension.

Palazzi rides with frame
today

And until further notice.

One more word
about mike perez.

Now, it's my guess this
poor guy was going around

With a lot of pressure
inside.

The lid on the kettle
never got raised.

The pressure
kept building up.

That's n.g., People.

You gotta let
the pressure out.

And for what it's worth,
I hope you'd feel

That jablonski is a place
where you can do that.

That jablonski's
here to listen.

Ongoings...

Uh, mike belker is
on an arson undercover

At the dante projects

And mayo, garibaldi,
larue and washington

Continue out of precinct
on operation molar.

Hey, a pop today, folks.

- Camera's rolling, detective.
- Cute.

Item 6: as of this a.m.,

Andrew renko is your new
pba representative.

[Cheers and applause]

Thank you very much.

Uh, every redress
will be handled--

Item 7: the sign-up sheet
for the spring bowling league

Is on the board upstairs.

You'll notice at the top
of said sheet

The john hancock
of yours truly,

Who, without giving
the tootski to his own bugle,

Will admit to being
the mainstay

Of the last year's
league victorious

Polk avenue kincoys.

What do you say, folks?

Let's have a top-notch
kegeling group this year.

Let's get out there and
bring home the hardware.

- [Cheering]
- okay, okay, that's it.

Let's get out there,
let's do it to them--

Wait a minute,
wait a minute.

I want to say something about
the way I turn you out.

When I say "let's do it to
them before they do it to us,"

I'm saying let's be
a good cop out there.

Let's do our job before
the bad guys do theirs

'Cause it's damn sure
they're gonna be doing theirs.

That's what I mean.

That's the last time
I'm gonna say what I mean.

I never meant abridge
a citizen's rights,

I never meant go
trigger-happy, anything else.

I'm 27 years with the force,

With great pride in one
discharge of a w*apon

And that was
in the air, thank god.

Anyway, have a good shift.

And with the aforementioned
in mind, let's do it to them

- Before they do it to us.
- [Cheering]

Morning, mrs. Furillo.

Detective, are you gonna
bust dr. Rose today?

- No pun intended.
- We hope so.

Hey, this pervert's
history, mrs. Furillo.

You know, the only good thing
I can say for the guy

Is he's got great taste
in who he molests.

[Sighs] you're a slug,
detective larue.

You pay a compliment.

Well, that's very sweet
of you to offer, ma,

I don't think it's
a good idea, though.

Because I'm a grown man
and I have my own life

And I don't think I should
come live with you.

Ma.

Ma! Ma!

We will talk about this
later.

In the mean--
no, listen to me.

I do not want you planning
I'm gonna move in, all right?

Yes.

I know the room's
exactly how I left it.

Leo.

I gotta go, ma.

I love you, too.

Goodbye.

How is mother belker, mick?

They're knocking down
my building,

She wants me
to move in with her.

Oh, good, uh,
first impressions.

- Quick.
- It's a nice trailer.

It's a recreational vehicle.

Barring any glitches I'm taking
ownership this morning.

Great, it's nice.

Use it in good health.

Listen, if you're
free for lunch

I'd be delighted to
have you come aboard, huh?

Listen, I tell you what,

We can have lunch
and christen the galley.

- What do you say?
- Yeah, I guess I can make it.

[Hunter]
good for you, mick.

Ms. Davenport,
when's the new job start?

First thing monday morning.

My replacement,
connie chapman.

Sgt. Lucy bates.

- Sergeant.
- Connie.

Good luck, you're gonna
need it up here.

Thanks.

Sergeant, you got a minute?

Yeah.

I'll be with you
in a moment.

See if I can
promote a cup of coffee.

I had a phone call yesterday
from fabian's mother.

She wants him back, lucy.

Tell her to forget
about it, no way.

She's looking for a lawyer.

I referred her
to legal aid.

What does she think, she can
just waltz in off the street

Between tricks and pick up
fabian away from me?

Is that what she thinks?
Who does she think she is?

Sergeant, please,
don't k*ll the messenger.

If I were you I'd call
ruth morganstern

At the youth authority.

She can advise you
better than i.

Yeah, but can his mother
really do this?

I mean, can they really
take fabian away from me?

Lucy, I'd call right away.

[Siren blaring,
police radio chatter]

[Maudlin piano]

♪♪

[Siren blaring]

- Hit and run.
- I just saw it.

I saw the other car
drive off.

He went through
that stop sign--

Come here, tell me
about it over here.

[Woman]
he just drove out of here.

How are they? Are they
gonna be all right?

Just take it easy, sir.

Are they all right?

- [Sobbing]
- look over here, sir, sir.

Yeah, the first
three letters, a-s-p.

That's all I saw.

I didn't see anything
except the man.

[Sobbing] she's dead,
they all are.

- 593.
- Sir, try to take it easy.

[Man]
I saw him, he looked
right at us.

[Hill]
okay, it's okay, sir.

[Renko]
bobby hill, bobby hill.

- Jerome simmons.
- How are the children?

Bobby, if he owns this car
he's got warrants--

Grand larceny
and a bail jump.

Registered to someone
named simmons?

- Jerome simmons?
- That's him.

The guy loses
his whole damn family.

How are we supposed
to bust him?

Hey, hey, hey!

Does he need
medical assistance?

Well, he has head cuts,
maybe a concussion.

- We oughta take him in for--
- let's just get on it.

- Get on it.
- My babies are my life.

Please don't tell me
all my life is gone.

Some warrants have fallen
on you, sir.

I'm afraid we're gonna have
to place you under arrest.

I don't care about that.

I just want to know
if my babies are dead.

[Sobs] are they gone?

Is chantel gone?

- Come on, let's get him out.
- [Renko] okay, let's go.

Let's just go!

[Sobbing] oh, god!

- Take him in.
- Oh, god.

All my family's gone.

[Hill]
renko, let's go.

Renko!

And it's g-rated
so far, neal.

He's working on her mouth.

Whoa, whoa, hold the phone.

[Chuckles] oh, man,
this guy is a sicko.

- Ohh.
- Biting the shoe?

Uh-huh, I guess
that's what they mean

By a conscientiously applied
program of oral hygiene

With regular
professional care.

Mm-mmm-mm,
let's take him.

Hey, wait a minute,
what for, man?

Come on, what,
molesting a shoe?

Now hold on-- what,
here-- here we go.

Here it is, all right.

Northern migration,
uh-huh, one button.

Uh-huh, two buttons,
the blouse is open.

Uh-oh, he's in
the rose garden--

- Oh, come on, let's take him.
- Now wait a minute.

Now seriously, neal, I want
to make sure we got enough.

- Hey, we got enough--
- now wait, now just wait.

Oh. Ohh!

All right, all--
hello, mama.

All ri-- all right,
all right, now, now, now.

- Go to the mouth.
- Whoa!

All right, police, you're
busted. Move away from her.

- What's the meaning of this?
- You're under arrest.

- Sexual battery.
- Battery? I--

- Just massaging my patient.
- All right, save it, twitchy.

The whole thing's
on videotape.

- Are you okay, patsy?
- I wouldn't mean to harm her.

- [Moaning]
- i-- at all.

Officer, nothing like this
will ever happen again.

You have my solemn promise.

You got that right.

Please don't put me
through this right now.

Hey, come on, doc, you gotta
use your feet.

Theodore rose, leo,
sexual battery, attempted r*pe.

Address?

Picked him up
at 6752 river drive.

- Need your residence, doc.
- The disgusting dr. Rose.

Hey-- a tremendous
mistake's taken place.

That's right,
and you made it.

I'm the one that
fingered you, you creep.

- You--
- [schnitz] address, sir.

1317 Fenton street.

- That's heather hills.
- Good work, neal.

Mayo's the one
who did great, captain.

So what did you do
to det. Mayo?

- Did you give her the gas?
- No, no.

- You all right?
- Yeah, I think so.

I think maybe she should
lie down, captain.

- No, no, I'll be okay.
- Take an hour, patsy.

Come on.

Henry,
let's get rose's files,

Track down his other
female patients,

See if any of them
has a grievance.

Maybe they'll come in
and swear a complaint.

- All right.
- [Fay] what'd he do to her?

[Washington]
the usual things,
mrs. Furillo.

Hey, hey, some not so usual.

Have you checked
your shoes, mrs. Furillo?

Are those the ones you were
wearing yesterday?

[Gasps] bite marks?

Ohh! You-- you filth.

Leo, leo, I'm gonna trade
the camera for the vcr.

I want to make sure
this came out okay.

- The viewing room's empty.
- I'll be upstairs.

No one under 18 admitted.

Captain,
heights just found that car

From the hit and run
abandoned in an alley.

Forensics
is going over it now.

- Registration?
- Carl barnett,
suburban address.

He called it in stolen
8:30 this morning.

Excuse me, stan.

[Renko]
you have to stand
right here, mr. Simmons.

This is jerome simmons.

Uh, mr. Simmons,
I'm capt. Furillo.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Mr. Simmons,
come on in here.

Captain, he saw the driver.

He's willing to give
a statement.

- Good.
- How do you want to handle it?

The warrants fell off, bobby,
I can't help that.

Book him? Captain--

Look, let him make any
phone calls he has to make

And I'll ask the d.a.
How he wants to proceed.

Dr. Rose?

Yes, here I am.

Dr. Molester.

I'm joyce davenport,
this is ms. Chapman.

- How do you do?
- Doctor.

Why did you request
the public defender, doctor?

I can't imagine
you're indigent.

"Imagine?" [Sighs]

The book on dr. Ted rose
is squarely into chapter 11.

I see.

No, I don't think you do.

There's just-- no income
can withstand an obsession.

I mean, it's nothing
for me anymore to--

To go through four or five
dozen capezios in a week.

[Stifling laugh, coughs]

I'm going to ask
the district attorney's office

To let you be evaluated
for probation

In a psychiatric
program, doctor.

Thank you, i--

Could that mean that maybe
I wouldn't have to go to jail?

We'll keep you apprised.

Oh, I want you to know...

...how hard and long
I've fought this thing.

I-- I mean, I gave up
a second-year residency

In podiatry
because of this.

[Chuckling]

Oh, I'm sorry.

You know, you got a lot
of attitude, lady,

For somebody with
occluded bicuspids.

Mr. Simmons, you're gonna stay
with officer renko and myself

Until you can be seen
by an attorney.

We're not gonna put you
in a holding cell, sir.

You can go out here
in the squad room,

Maybe you can use
the telephone to call somebody.

- What for?
- I expect you have
some people to call.

I don't want
to call nobody.

I just want you to take a g*n
and sh**t me in the head.

- Now, now, sir--
- let me sh**t myself

- And be with my family!
- Mr. Simmons.

[Sobbing] I see 'em.

- I see my family.
- Jerome!

Jerome, listen!

Who is there to call?

Who's there to make
the arrangements?

She-- she got people.

Okay, okay, now
let's just go call them.

Come on, now.

Excuse me.

Uh, ruth morganstern,
youth authority.

Sgt. Bates is expecting you.

Thank you.

Right, thanks.

The stolen car's owner is on
his way over from the heights

To pick up his 802s.

Put simmons downstairs.

I don't want them bumping
into each other.

Right.

Forensics brought this in
from the cadillac, captain.

Somebody's brown bagging it.

A bottle of scotch, empty,
some kind of a scarf.

Henry, put the scarf
in property.

Dust the bottle for prints
and run the car owner's sheet.

Right away.

Forensics said the car must've
been doing 40 miles an hour.

What kind of a guy takes out
a family and drives away?

She's completed
a rehab program,

She's secured
a place to live,

She's working nights
in a downtown office building.

She is apparently
off dr*gs for good.

You bet your life savings
on that?

No, but she's
the boy's mother.

The court would lean
heavily

Towards placing him
with his natural parent.

And what if I want
to fight it?

Well, a separate action
to have her declared unfit

Would take an attorney,
could drag on for months,

And you'd be out of pocket
several thousand at a minimum.

So what?

I feel like I'm fighting
for his life.

I can't tell you
what to do, sergeant,

But I can ask you
if you care about fabian

As much as I think you do,
what good can possibly come

From a bitter and protracted
legal fight

Between the only two people
who ever really cared about him?

What'd she say?

Uh, that there would be
a big court battle

That would cost
a lot of money,

Which I can't afford,

And I'd probably
lose him anyway.

Hey, look, luce,

I could give you
a couple of thou.

I mean, if that would help.

I got that money from vegas,
I didn't do anything with it.

That's very sweet of you,
thank you.

I mean it, luce.

Anything you need,
anything at all.

[Sighs]

I'm gonna lose him,
joe, yet.

You know, I've only
had him two months.

And I can't remember what
my life was like before.

It's okay, it's okay.

I had some last concern

About manageability
in the city traffic.

Oh, that vehicle is
ultra-manageable, lieutenant.

It's a pleasure to drive.

As well as
gasoline consumption.

It's-- it's not a sipper,
I can't lie to you.

On the other hand,

I think we know we're not
gonna be fooled anymore

By guys in bed sheets
yelling crisis

And trying to blackmail
the greatest nation

On the face of this earth.

'Cause, listen, I'm not saying
it's gonna be cheap,

But fuel is going
to be plentiful.

It's going to be available
to you as the consumer

Because, hey, we're not
gonna put up with that
malarkey anymore.

[Woman, over p.a.]
Mr. Cohen, phone call, line 3.

Yes, well, uh...

Lieutenant...
[Chuckles]

How do I stand with you?

I mean, last tuesday
you walked off of this lot

I thought we had a sale.

I filled out all the papers
and everything--

Well, to be perfectly candid,

I intend to drive off
of your lot today

In this vehicle.

You do? Good for you.

I have a-- a check
in my pocket

In the amount
that we discussed.

You've got a check,
that's good.

Yes.

It's just that miniscule,

Last little twinge
of uncertainty.

[Laughs] which you would not
be an intelligent buyer

If you didn't have.

Lieutenant,
what brought you here?

Oh, patrol unit
dropped me off.

No, no, I'm saying in point
of original interest,

Uh, why did you
come to this lot?

Well, I was interested in
buying a mobile home.

And is this the unit that caught
your eye, your attention?

Correct.

[Chuckles] in other words,

What I see here is an adult
with a legitimate desire

And I see an opportunity
to fulfill that desire.

Wait, wait, I'm not gonna
get all "little house on
the prairie" on you,

But... [Sighs]

That's the reason maurice
farnsworth is in this business

Is to put those two things
together.

Now here's what
I want you to do.

I want you to sign
these papers,

I want you to
give me that check,

And I want you to get in
that unit, you rv owner.

[Chuckles]

By golly.

I'm gonna do it.

Good for you, go for it!

Oh, judas.

You know, it was just that
last little bit of worry

About city driving
and-- and parking.

No problem.

Can I have the check,
please?

Sure to fire right up.

I put a gallon in
last night.

- What a guy.
- Ohh.

- How do you feel?
- Like a million dollars.

That's just
for the interest.

Oh! Only kidding.

Just showing you
a good time.

You ever drive one of
these babies before?

Oh, sir, I've driven a t*nk
in my country's service.

- Oh, say no more.
- Yeah.

- [Engine starts, revs]
- bon voyage, lieutenant.

Yeah.

[Whistling]

- Mrs. Dewitt?
- [Baby crying]

What do you want?

I'm lucy bates.

I've been taking care
of fabian.

I know who you are.

I ask what you want.

If you'd just let me in
maybe we can talk about that.

I'm clean.

I know that.

Please, let me in.

Why didn't you
come to me first?

You got your police friends.

Maybe you even know
the judge.

And maybe you'd try and frame me
up and send me back to jail.

Nobody is trying
to frame you.

Cops have done worse
than that to me.

Mrs. Dewitt...

I know you love fabian.

I'm asking you to consider
what's best for him.

What's best for him
is to be with his mama.

I have given him
the first stable home

He's ever had in his life.

He's doing real well at school
and he's got his friends.

If you love him,
realize what he's got now.

He don't have his mother.

Now which mother
are we talking about,

The one who's been a junkie
all her life

Or the one that's been
clean for a couple of weeks?

46 Days, lady,

And each one of them
'cause of that boy

And what he mean to me.

Now I don't have to
explain myself to you.

I'm-- I'm grateful
for what you've done,

But it's time for me to get
my family back together.

What kind of family life
you gonna have

Working nights
as a cleaning woman?

I am working the only
honest job I can get.

I'm sorry,
I shouldn't have said that.

You're gonna make me
come get my boy

Or you're gonna
do the right thing?

I'll have to ask
fabian that.

He's gonna have to choose.

Blood don't choose, miss.

Blood just is,
and he's mine.

Frank, they just finished
the canvas

Of the accident scene
for additional witnesses.

No better description
of the hit and run driver.

- Thanks, henry.
- Barnett,

The guy who reported
the car stolen,

Has three drunk drivings
on his b.c.i.

- Is that right?
- Also a disorderly conduct,

Pleaded down from solicitation
at 95th and market.

Okay, I want to question him
when he gets in.

Excuse me, lieutenant, uh,
a patient of dr. Rose is here.

Thanks.

Frank, frank...

Forensics could not lift
usable prints

From the stolen cadillac.

- The hit and run tragedy?
- Yes, sir.

- Chief.
- I was just in the heights.

They tell me we locked up
the surviving father.

Mm-hmm, and warrants fell.

Excuse me a second,
will you, ray?

Of course, chief.

What kind of warrants?

Well, a year-old
larceny charge

And a bail violation.

How bad was the larceny?

Henry-- no large.

Frank, I don't see what good
could be served pursuing those.

The man gets his family
wiped out,

We throw him
in the hoosegow.

They'd love it
on the 5:00 news.

Why don't I talk
to irwin bernstein?

He's not inclined to come down
hard on simmons.

Good, good for irwin.

We're gonna make
the hit and run?

Too early to tell.

The whole family bites it,
it's gotta hurt.

We'll keep you posted.

You know, since cora
and I split up,

I've gotten a lot more
in touch with my feelings.

Leo, you want to see
how bent the world is?

You take a look at this tape
of mayo with dr. Bing-wam.

I can't believe
what some guys--

You reviewed the tape, j.d.,
Or are you selling tickets?

Well, I had to make sure we got
enough to prosecute, didn't i?

Yeah, I want to see it,

Or is viewing time all booked up
for fraternity row screenings?

Hey, you take a look
at the tape

Before you cop
an attitude, patsy.

I mean, this guy rose is
over the left field fence.

[Scoffs] chicks today.

Zero sense of humor.

Congratulations on that
dr. Hoof and mouth, detective.

Thank you, sir.

- Was that our decoy?
- Right, sir, det. Mayo.

Nice set of wheels, huh?

The guy went out in style.

Yes, sir.

Excuse me, my name
is carl barnett.

My car was
stolen this morning.

Right, uh, would you
come with me, sir?

Actually I just
need the theft reports

For my insurance carrier.

Yeah, just, uh,
just come with me, sir.

- Why?
- Captain wants to see you.

Okay, thank you,
I appreciate your coming up.

You know, $120 pair
of pumps ruined,

And I thought I had mice.

When did you first notice
that your car was missing,
mr. Barnett?

Uh, we'd slept in.

I came downstairs
around, uh, 8:15.

They'd broken into the garage.

I called the police
right away.

- At 8:28?
- That sounds right.

You say they were all k*lled,
there were no survivors?

There was
one survivor.

Was anybody in the house
with you, mr. Barnett?

- My wife.
- She'll verify that?

We were together since
6:00 last night.

Look, is there a problem?

Well, you have
an arrest sheet here.

Conviction for
disorderly conduct

Which began as solicitation
of an undercover policewoman

At 95th and market streets
last april.

What's that got to do
with the price of eggs?

You also have
a history of arrests

For driving while impaired.

My drinking problem
is under control, captain.

I've been in a program

And I happen to be managing
very effectively.

- Not that I follow--
- which makes you a drunk driver

Who has been arrested in
the accident's general area
in the past.

What the hell does my past
got to do with this, captain?

- My car was stolen!
- So you said.

I'm afraid we're gonna have to
ask you some more questions,
mr. Barnett.

This is extraordinary.

Given your attitude
I'm not sure

I'm inclined
to answer more questions.

I'm afraid we'll have
to insist.

I'm afraid I'm gonna
have to contact my lawyer.

You certainly have
that option.

Ray, would you show
mr. Barnett to interrogation?

What-- hold on, hold--

Hold on a second.

Look, I'm afraid
I have a temper.

I, um...

I'm sure you have
to ask these questions.

I think I should contact
my lawyer,

But I'll try
to be cooperative.

[Furillo]
good.

Under the circumstances,

If you were to enter
a plea of guilty

I'd think we could
get you probation

And immediate release.

Mr. Simmons?

However you want to do.

I can only imagine the pain
you must be feeling now.

What I would like
to do is help you

Dispose of these
other matters

So you can bury your dead.

Ms. Davenport, we're
putting together a line-up.

We'd like your client
to view it.

A line-up? For who?

I'd presume
they've got a suspect

In the hit and run
accident.

Let's go.

I want to see him.

Let's go.

I'm phillip potter
representing carl barnett.

Uh, capt. Furillo, counselor.
Have a seat.

Your client decided
to go ahead without you.

Take your marks.

All the way to the end.

Lift your head,
number four.

Face front.

m*rder*r! m*rder*r!

m*rder*r!

[Sobbing] m*rder*r!

[Clamoring]

Get him away from me!

Get him away
from me!

[Man]
hey, get him off of me!

My wife!

I'm seeing my babies.

- Stop, stop!
- Jerome!

[Wailing]

And the only drawback
is the parking, mick.

I'm lucky this lot is within
hailing distance of my building.

Uh-huh.

[Chuckles]

There you go, mick.

Ahh.

Yes, strong and content

I travel the open road,

Going where I list,

I am my own master,
absolute and total.

I gotta find an apartment.

You know, I've decided
to name it pegasus.

Pegasus, mick,
pegasus for freedom.

Pegasus for chosen flight.

I didn't look before
because I thought

I was moving in with somebody.

Hmm, oh, yes.

L'affaire tataglia.

Now you won't
believe this, mick,

But do you know what I think of
when I blow the horn?

A riverboat captain.

I think of myself
on the mississippi.

[Rattling and creaking]

You there.

What do you want, man?

It would behoove you to inscribe
this vehicle in your memory.

It belongs
to a police officer.

- A cop, huh?
- A cop, correct.

Myself, in fact, and I don't
wish to see you

In proximity of
the pegasus again.

Now scat.

Do you mind if I get
my jack back, jack?

Well, I certainly don't
want my rv on a tilt.

Be quick.

Big man, lot of big words.

Sir, our lunch
is getting cold.

Well, that's too bad,
big words,

'Cause you live around here,
everything is cold.

Well, maybe I could arrange
a warm jail cell for you.

And maybe I could arrange
a few flat tires for you.

Did you say you're gonna
park this here?

Uh, counselor?

I'm phillip potter,
counselor,

Representing carl barnett.

I was wondering if I might have
a brief word with your client.

My client's identification
was clear, mr. Potter,

If your intention
is to shift blame here.

No, it's not our intention
at all.

I simply wanted
to speak with mr. Simmons

To discuss the area of
potential liability.

- Mm-hmm, well, I'll ask.
- Many thanks.

- What the hell's going on
in the viewing room?
- What's the problem?

The problem is there's
three guys up there

Watching the tape
of my undercover.

What'd you do,
charge 50 cents a head?

Hey, I showed a couple
of guys the tape, pats.

There's few enough
laughs around here.

Oh, forget keeping
evidence secured.

Didn't you ever hear
of common decency?

Hey, would you keep
your-- your shirt on?

Oh, you're a jerk, larue.

You're as bad
as the creep we busted.

Hey, what are you gonna do,
pats? Are you gonna hit me?

- Hey, hey!
- Patsy, patsy!

In my office.

- Hey, j.d.
- What?

What are you doing,
you showing mayo's tape?

Yeah, I showed the tape.

You with the legion
of decency too?

No, I'm somebody
might take your head off.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah!

Hey, hey, hey, hey,
chill out, man!

And you, zip it up.

- What do you want to do?
- I don't know.

I mean, we're cops together.

What is the guy's
problem?

He has an emotional age
of around 9.

You know, I think
he even let the camera sh**t

Longer than he needed to.

Well, that part's
debatable, patsy.

But if you want to file
a grievance against larue

For making a peep show out of
the evidence I'll support you.

Thanks, captain, I think
I oughta handle it myself.

Captain, something
you oughta hear.

I'm saying I wasn't sure
that was the man.

I decided I wasn't sure.

You were damn sure
about an hour ago, jerome.

You wanted to k*ll barnett.

I'm telling you
what I decided.

Just a case of mistaken
identity, huh?

That's right.

Jerome, we know barnett's
lawyer talked to you.

So what?

So maybe he helped you
change your mind.

You want another line-up,
you want to see him again?

No.

I don't want to see him.

- Jerome, don't--
- come on, ray.

Frank, he betrays
his own family.

- What else do we have?
- Not much.

Barnett's wife is here.

I'm sure her statement
will support her husband's.

Will you listen to this?

Officer hill has just talked
the williams funeral home

Into giving all their
services free of charge

To simmons' family.

Simmons just withdrew
his identification.

- You're kidding.
- Andy, get me the scarf
you found in barnett's car.

I want to show it
to his wife.

Take it easy.

Take it easy.

How much did he give you,
jerome,

To make you
change your mind, hmm?

Who are you?

Where do you get off
asking me that?

That was your family that
d*ed out in the street, man.

- You can't accept money.
- Don't tell me what I can't do.

I gotta take my eyes out.

I gotta take out
seein' them on the street.

Blood money won't
help you do that.

Jerome,
this just isn't right.

If there's a right
and wrong,

You think I'm alive
and them getting cold,

As good as she was,
as weak as I am?

As beautiful as those
little babies was?

Man, you get out of here.

You just leave me alone.

I'll tell you one thing.

I don't believe you loved them
as much as you say.

You get out of here.

If you loved them,
you couldn't do this.

You wouldn't.

You wouldn't let that man
barnett

Back out on the street again
to k*ll another man's family.

- You get out of here!
- You hear me?

You hear me, jerome?

You can stand
as high as you want,

But don't say that
you loved them.

Get him out of here!

Bobby.

I'm done.

He was with me
all last night,

From early evening
until this morning

When he discovered
his car had been stolen.

Is that your scarf,
mrs. Barnett?

No.

It was found in your
husband's car this morning.

I suppose it might
be mine.

Or it might belong to
whoever stole the car,

Or someone who was in the car
after it was stolen.

I don't think your husband
was with you last night.

I think he was out
cruising, drunk.

And on the way
home this morning,

He hit and k*lled a woman
and two little children.

No.

Then he drove a couple
of blocks further,

Abandoned the car,
took a gypsy cab home,

Called and reported the car
had been stolen.

That's a cruel thing
to say to me and it's not true.

And I think you're going
through hell right now

Because you know you're
covering up for a k*ller.

Captain, I'm a mother.

I feel ver--

I'm very sorry for what
happened to that family.

You're also a wife.

You with the blue jacket.

Yeah, you, stop right there.

- [Siren whoop]
- follow this guy.

No point saving
your books either.

Pull over.

Not so fast, pal,
not so fast.

Get your hands
up in the air.

- How you doin', fabers?
- Hey, joe.

- How you doing?
- I'm all right.

Hey, will you do me a favor?

Sit in the car
and keep my seat warm.

If I don't get a doughnut
I'm gonna die,

- And watch that lady in there.
- All right.

- Fabe.
- Hey, luce, what's going on?

Not much.

Luce, you're america's
worst damn liar.

- Watch that language.
- Sorry.

So here's the deal--

Your mom is done
with the rehab program.

She's off dr*gs,
she got a job,

And now she wants you
to come home with her.

She wants me back?

Yeah.

She's really off
the dr*gs?

So far, yeah.

What if she goes back
on them, and then what?

And what about school?

I was starting
to get into it.

You gotta go to school,
fabian, that's the law.

Dang.

- Hey!
- [Man] where you going?

Espera un momento.

Hey!

Hey, wait up.

Will you talk to me?

If you don't want to go back
you just say so.

- I'll fight it.
- Of course I want to go back.

I love my mom,
she needs me.

And what about
what you need?

You should think about
that for a change.

It ain't that simple.

I'm going back.

Okay.

You mad at me?

How can I be mad at you?

I love you.

I love you too.

Well, if anything goes wrong

You know you got a room
at my place.

♪♪

There are check-ins
for dr. Rose

Into three
psychiatric programs.

That's not bad for a last
day's work, counselor.

Acceptable?

For purposes
of evaluation, yeah.

As an alternative
to incarceration,

Nah-nah nah-nah.

All right, let's see what
the reports have to say.

I understand you used gas

Only on female
adult patients, doctor.

I am deeply ashamed,
your honor.

I am turning
my entire practice over

To my associate,
dr. Krantz,

Until I've completed
psychological rehabilitation.

I'm also planning
a trip to israel

To do charity work
in a kibbutz.

[Stifles a laugh]

Don't book passage tonight.

Tonight it's the pokey.

You deserve a taste
anyway.

100,000 Cash or bond,

Short date
for probation report.

[Gavel bangs]

[Bailiff]
recess will be called
after two more cases.

Anyone here not on
court business we ask--

Nothing, if a girl was with
barnett we couldn't find her.

You want to hold simmons
in a few days,

See if his memory
gets back on track?

So when he gets out
he can recant again?

Det. Mcconnell, division.

The chief's office would like
to see the evidence

In the rose case.

49 On the calendar,
jerome simmons.

Grand larceny
and failure to appear.

[Judge wachtel]
all right, what have we
got here?

This is the individual who
lost his family, your honor.

[Judge wachtel]
oh, yeah.

[Bailiff]
year-old charges.

[Judge wachtel]
you got any problems with
r.o.r., Mr. Bernstein?

No, your honor.

Mr. Simmons?

If I release you today,

Are you going to return
for your hearing date?

Yes, your honor.

Released on recognizance.

You're free to go,
mr. Simmons.

I'm sorry for your loss, sir.

Okay.

- Next.
- Carl barnett.

Three counts
vehicular manslaughter.

Unsigned complaint,
your honor--

- Sit down.
- They're done with me.

Watch,
watch what you did.

Sit.

Your honor, my client has
a preliminary statement.

[Judge wachtel]
okay.

What happened this morning,
your honor, was a deep tragedy

For the family of
jerome simmons,

But I'm also concerned with
the gestapo police tactics

Which have caused
needless emotional trauma

For myself and mrs. Barnett.

We were bystanders
at this event.

But others have tried
to cast us as participants.

- Now...
- Are you listening, jerome?

...as a businessman and
a member of this community...

That's what you're
turning loose.

...my good name and reputation
are important to me,

And I resent what's been
done this day to tarnish them.

Application, mr. D.a.?

For dismissal without prejudice
to renew, your honor.

[Sighs] so done.

Next.

[Bailiff]
docket number jn1143,
sally bunzel.

Solicitation
and attempted robbery.

[Man]
sir, I told you all smoking
materials must be extinguished.

Captain.

Can't we get barnett
on the bribe?

We know he bought simmons off.

They'll just contend it's
an out-of-court settlement.

- But it isn't, captain.
- There's no civil liabil--

It'll still hold up
legally.

Damn it.

Excuse me.

Patsy.

Hey, pats,
pats, you got a minute?

Don't worry about it, larue,
I'm not gonna bring charges.

Thanks, I just want you
to know

That I didn't let it go
any more in rose's office

Than I thought we needed
for the case.

And so far as me
showing the tape to the guys,

Hey, I'm a jerk but I'm
a jerk with everyone.

When does this get
interesting, j.d.?

I'm just trying
to say I'm sorry.

Look, j.d., The job's
tough enough,

But it's three times
harder when I have to deal

With this kind of crap
from my own side.

I got you.

So, uh... We okay?

We'll live.

Ms. Davenport, phone.

Thanks, leo.

Thank you all very much.

Det. Mayo, you have

- Det. Mayo.

[Whispers] the chief.

Hello, chief.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you very much, sir.

Well, um, I'm not sure.

Um, can I get back
to you?

Yes, as soon as possible.

What?

Daniels just asked me out
for dinner next week.

- Hi, mick.
- Sarge.

Do any good with that
arson undercover?

Mm-mmm, the perez thing
might have scared him off.

Maybe we ought to shut it down
for a while.

I think it was good what you
said in roll call this morning.

I think that was
a good thing to say.

- As regards being available?
- Yes.

Well, I thought I'd say it.

You let people know that
you're available to talk.

I'm certain there's
people that want it.

So, how are things?

What,
do you mean with me?

Mm-hmm.

They're all right,
nothing I can't handle.

How's that little snip
of a girl,

That, uh, that cute
little girl from the heights?

- You mean robin tataglia?
- Yeah.

It's over with us,
that's finished.

I didn't know her
at all, I'd just--

I'd just see her come up
here occasionally.

In addition
I'm being evicted.

- What?
- Yeah, I'm being
evicted shortly.

What does it mean?

It means you look
for another place.

- Absolutely.
- You find another place.

You find another place,
you find another girlfriend.

Yeah, well, you handle
the situation.

You bowl, mick?

Well, i...

What about pinochle?

Not for a long time.

[Chuckles]

We're having team pinochle
tonight

Over at st. Bart's.

Mrs. Fysjeffski
crapped out on me.

Gotta look through
the want ads.

Another time.

Maybe some other time.

Thanks for the offer.

Thanks for the talk.

Hello, fabian.

Hi, mama.

Uh, this is all his stuff.

And he has to be at school
at 8:30 in the morning,

And he's still got some
homework he's got to do.

I'll see he does it.

Well, then, this is
mrs. Morganstern's number.

She's with
the youth authority.

She can be of help, if you
need anything at all,

Just call her, or me.

- I gotta get going.
- Uh, ms. Bates.

I ain't done so well
by my son to date.

I understand I gotta
prove myself.

I want you to know I will.

Okay.

Hey, you're gonna call me
once in a while?

Okay.

A man who doesn't look out
for his family is nothing.

No excuses, no wrong served,
either you do or you don't.

You did the best you could
but, hell, you did more.

Come on, bobby, why don't you
come over and have dinner
with me and daryl ann?

I'm gonna stay here
for a while.

Come on, man,
let's go have some bacon.

[Laughing]

- Staying?
- No, I don't think so.

Yeah, at least
if I had fought it,

I would've known if I
could've kept him or not.

That's a lot of baloney,
that would've just hurt him.

I really blew it.

Hey, no way, luce.

You were great,
you were great for that kid.

He was so sweet,
he was such a sweet kid.

Look, I know it's gonna be
hard being without him,

So if it
makes it any easier,

You oughta know that you
probably saved a life.

Yeah, maybe two lives.

So you feel terrific
now, huh?

Come on.

- I feel terrific.
