1
00:00:36,302 --> 00:00:39,294
- Hey, how's it going, chief?
- Big day.
2
00:00:46,913 --> 00:00:48,175
Here you go.
3
00:00:48,381 --> 00:00:51,111
Beer and bagel.
4
00:00:53,820 --> 00:00:57,085
You know, it's gonna be cold tonight.
You should find a shelter.
5
00:00:57,257 --> 00:01:00,249
I'm good. Squared away.
6
00:01:09,769 --> 00:01:11,703
You on the list?
Yeah.
7
00:01:11,905 --> 00:01:12,929
Hi.
8
00:01:13,106 --> 00:01:14,596
- Is he gonna be your guest?
Yeah.
9
00:01:14,774 --> 00:01:15,934
- Thanks.
Yeah, yeah.
10
00:01:16,109 --> 00:01:17,599
All right.
11
00:01:29,322 --> 00:01:30,346
Hey.
12
00:01:30,523 --> 00:01:33,048
- Here it is, here it is.
- Here we go, here we go.
13
00:01:33,226 --> 00:01:35,660
- Take them.
- All right.
14
00:01:35,829 --> 00:01:37,319
Hey.
15
00:01:37,497 --> 00:01:40,796
- To the greatest city in the world.
- And to the men who built it.
16
00:01:40,967 --> 00:01:42,025
To the Cassidys.
17
00:01:43,570 --> 00:01:44,730
Yeah!
18
00:01:49,175 --> 00:01:50,665
Oh, that's nice.
19
00:02:07,227 --> 00:02:08,922
Man, it's freezing out here.
20
00:02:09,095 --> 00:02:11,689
I'd jump into the Hudson River
to get away from those cows.
21
00:02:11,865 --> 00:02:13,162
How did we lose the hot chicks?
22
00:02:14,601 --> 00:02:17,593
Hey. Check this guy out.
23
00:02:18,404 --> 00:02:21,339
Yo! Are you pimping your crib?
24
00:02:23,409 --> 00:02:25,343
What's the best part
about dating the homeless?
25
00:02:26,045 --> 00:02:27,171
Hey, I'm asking you.
26
00:02:27,614 --> 00:02:29,673
You can drop them off
wherever you want.
27
00:02:29,849 --> 00:02:32,579
- Ha-ha-ha. Good.
- I don't want any problems.
28
00:02:32,752 --> 00:02:34,913
Well, it's a little late for that.
29
00:02:35,088 --> 00:02:39,525
You live on the street.
You got problems.
30
00:02:39,692 --> 00:02:41,387
Hey, what's that?
31
00:02:42,996 --> 00:02:44,122
What did you steal?
32
00:02:44,297 --> 00:02:46,060
- It's mine.
- Come on, if it's yours,
33
00:02:46,232 --> 00:02:48,359
you would've pawned it by now.
Is that a medal?
34
00:02:48,535 --> 00:02:50,059
Here, let me see it.
35
00:02:50,937 --> 00:02:52,871
Oh...
36
00:02:57,243 --> 00:02:59,609
Come on, man. Give it up.
It doesn't belong to you.
37
00:03:00,513 --> 00:03:03,141
- Oh!
- Oh.
38
00:03:03,449 --> 00:03:04,882
Oh, you got beer on his coat.
39
00:03:05,051 --> 00:03:07,076
This is a 3,000-dollar camel hair,
dirtbag.
40
00:03:30,410 --> 00:03:33,470
You stay where the hell I put you,
loser.
41
00:03:39,786 --> 00:03:41,048
Oh.
42
00:03:42,155 --> 00:03:43,417
A service medal.
43
00:03:44,090 --> 00:03:46,320
Some vet's gonna thank me.
44
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,484
You think he's okay?
45
00:03:48,661 --> 00:03:50,128
Yeah, he's fine. I just winged him.
46
00:03:50,296 --> 00:03:52,560
Cas, your coat is jacked.
47
00:03:52,932 --> 00:03:54,263
Aww.
48
00:03:57,937 --> 00:03:59,370
Come on. Come on.
49
00:03:59,572 --> 00:04:01,506
Let's get out of here. Come on.
50
00:04:01,674 --> 00:04:02,936
Come on.
51
00:04:04,344 --> 00:04:05,936
Let's go.
Go! Go!
52
00:04:14,887 --> 00:04:16,718
- Hey, what do we got?
Hey, Danny.
53
00:04:16,889 --> 00:04:19,289
Call came in as a 54 unconscious.
54
00:04:19,459 --> 00:04:21,518
By the time the sector car arrived,
guy was dead.
55
00:04:21,694 --> 00:04:23,059
- Who called it in?
- Janitor.
56
00:04:23,229 --> 00:04:24,719
Works in that building
across there
57
00:04:24,897 --> 00:04:27,798
- and he found the body at 0330.
- All right, where's the janitor?
58
00:04:27,967 --> 00:04:29,992
Had to get his grandkids
ready for school.
59
00:04:30,169 --> 00:04:31,193
- What?
- Yeah.
60
00:04:31,371 --> 00:04:33,498
You let a witness walk away
from a homicide?
61
00:04:33,673 --> 00:04:36,403
Come on, we got the guy's pedigree.
We know where he works.
62
00:04:36,609 --> 00:04:38,509
- It's not like the vic's going anywhere.
- I don't care if it's the mayor,
63
00:04:38,678 --> 00:04:40,839
you don't let a witness walk away
from a homicide.
64
00:04:41,014 --> 00:04:43,505
Let's check the surrounding blocks
for surveillance video.
65
00:04:43,883 --> 00:04:46,351
- Where's this door lead?
That's the Brass 9 Club.
66
00:04:46,519 --> 00:04:48,544
Is there anyone in there
that I could speak to?
67
00:04:48,721 --> 00:04:50,382
No, it closed at 3 a.m.
They were all gone
68
00:04:50,556 --> 00:04:52,490
by the time the call came in.
69
00:04:56,062 --> 00:04:58,053
"Semper Fi."
70
00:04:58,631 --> 00:05:00,895
This guy's a Marine.
71
00:05:02,835 --> 00:05:04,996
Jack, this guy's a Marine.
72
00:05:05,772 --> 00:05:07,103
- Really?
- James Phelps.
73
00:05:07,273 --> 00:05:10,174
- Run down the next of kin from that.
- Yeah.
74
00:05:10,343 --> 00:05:11,867
- Where's the wagon?
- We're waiting.
75
00:05:12,045 --> 00:05:14,707
- How long you been waiting?
- Long time, Dan.
76
00:05:15,515 --> 00:05:17,449
Yeah, it's Detective First Grade
Daniel Reagan.
77
00:05:17,650 --> 00:05:21,108
We're waiting on an ME wagon
at 54th and 12th. What's your holdup?
78
00:05:21,287 --> 00:05:22,379
I don't give a damn what...
79
00:05:22,555 --> 00:05:24,580
Hey, you get your ass down here now,
okay?
80
00:05:24,757 --> 00:05:26,952
I got a dead Marine lying in an alley.
81
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,754
Well, do better than your best.
82
00:05:31,264 --> 00:05:32,288
All right.
83
00:05:33,366 --> 00:05:34,628
That's not James Phelps.
84
00:05:34,801 --> 00:05:36,792
- What?
- I just ran him through HIDTA,
85
00:05:36,969 --> 00:05:40,200
and Phelps was killed in action
in Afghanistan in 2009.
86
00:05:41,274 --> 00:05:42,536
Who the hell is this guy?
87
00:05:44,544 --> 00:05:47,104
What's he doing
wearing a dead Marine's dog tags?
88
00:06:19,278 --> 00:06:20,302
- Hey.
- Morning.
89
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,072
Hey.
Morning.
90
00:06:22,248 --> 00:06:25,649
- Nice surprise.
- Well, I thought I'd ride in with you.
91
00:06:25,818 --> 00:06:27,843
Well, I'll enjoy your company.
92
00:06:28,020 --> 00:06:30,454
- Coffee?
- No, I'm good.
93
00:06:30,623 --> 00:06:31,749
Have you seen the Ledger?
94
00:06:31,924 --> 00:06:34,984
No. Pop always gets it first,
for the sports page.
95
00:06:35,161 --> 00:06:36,321
That's right.
96
00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:38,658
Ray Curston's column.
97
00:06:39,365 --> 00:06:42,334
He makes it sound
like you're leveraging all this hero stuff
98
00:06:42,502 --> 00:06:44,026
to make a run for city hall.
99
00:06:44,237 --> 00:06:47,263
- Where did this come from?
A poll came out yesterday,
100
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,000
showing your approval ratings
are twice that of the mayor's.
101
00:06:50,443 --> 00:06:52,809
Well, a police commissioner,
if he's doing his job right,
102
00:06:52,979 --> 00:06:55,470
will always have higher poll numbers
than his mayor.
103
00:06:55,648 --> 00:06:59,846
I don't think the mayor sees it that way.
Not with double his numbers.
104
00:07:00,019 --> 00:07:01,384
You think he's behind this?
105
00:07:02,121 --> 00:07:04,055
It wouldn't surprise me.
106
00:07:04,257 --> 00:07:06,191
He doesn't like to stand
in anyone's shadow,
107
00:07:06,359 --> 00:07:07,792
and you've cast a pretty long one,
108
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,554
especially
after the assassination attempt.
109
00:07:10,897 --> 00:07:13,195
This is libel. Francis,
what are you gonna do about it?
110
00:07:13,366 --> 00:07:16,199
Well, as your daughter first
and as a lawyer second,
111
00:07:16,369 --> 00:07:17,996
I urge you not to respond.
112
00:07:18,171 --> 00:07:22,232
If I got upset every time somebody did
a negative piece about me, I'd be...
113
00:07:22,408 --> 00:07:23,966
The mayor?
114
00:07:24,143 --> 00:07:25,167
And I'm not.
115
00:07:25,978 --> 00:07:29,505
Okay, Dad, I know, but I know you.
116
00:07:29,682 --> 00:07:33,277
And if the mayor is going around
making you sound like a glory hound,
117
00:07:33,686 --> 00:07:35,244
you're not gonna just sit there,
118
00:07:35,421 --> 00:07:38,219
so, what are you gonna do?
119
00:07:40,927 --> 00:07:42,690
I'm gonna finish my coffee.
120
00:07:42,862 --> 00:07:46,161
And then I'm going to enjoy
a nice ride into town
121
00:07:46,332 --> 00:07:48,163
with my lovely daughter.
122
00:07:51,604 --> 00:07:53,538
How are we doing
on the vic's prints?
123
00:07:53,706 --> 00:07:54,730
I have an expedite on it.
124
00:07:54,907 --> 00:07:56,875
If he was military,
it's gonna pop pretty quick.
125
00:07:57,043 --> 00:07:58,442
With that tattoo, he was a Marine.
126
00:07:58,611 --> 00:08:00,545
- Stay on top of the prints.
- I'll go check.
127
00:08:00,713 --> 00:08:03,546
Hey, Reagan. It's the guy
who found your vic in the alley.
128
00:08:03,716 --> 00:08:05,013
Hey. Thanks for coming down.
129
00:08:05,184 --> 00:08:07,675
- Yeah.
- You told the responding officers
130
00:08:07,854 --> 00:08:10,379
this man was killed
between 2:45 and 3:30, is that right?
131
00:08:10,556 --> 00:08:12,786
- Yeah.
- The victim, did he have any beefs
132
00:08:12,959 --> 00:08:15,587
you know about, problems
with someone else living in the street?
133
00:08:15,761 --> 00:08:16,955
Not that I ever saw.
134
00:08:17,129 --> 00:08:18,960
- Drug problems, ever see him using?
- No.
135
00:08:19,131 --> 00:08:21,565
Well, he was pretty banged up
from the war,
136
00:08:21,734 --> 00:08:24,430
so sometimes he gets
on the prescription meds.
137
00:08:24,604 --> 00:08:26,697
Okay.
Anybody else live in this alley?
138
00:08:26,873 --> 00:08:29,569
Just a woman. A girl, really.
139
00:08:29,742 --> 00:08:31,403
Maybe 20.
140
00:08:31,577 --> 00:08:32,601
Sissy.
141
00:08:32,778 --> 00:08:37,044
She was gone when I came down
and I found the body.
142
00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:39,375
Okay. Him and this woman,
were they a couple?
143
00:08:39,552 --> 00:08:42,578
No.
But he always looked out for her.
144
00:08:42,755 --> 00:08:45,986
Can you work with our sketch artist,
come up with a description of Sissy?
145
00:08:46,158 --> 00:08:47,648
- Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
- Thank you.
146
00:08:47,860 --> 00:08:53,799
You know, I came back from Nam,
had a couple of shaky years.
147
00:08:53,966 --> 00:08:55,297
I never hit the street.
148
00:08:56,269 --> 00:08:59,761
But let me tell you,
there but for the grace of God.
149
00:08:59,939 --> 00:09:00,997
Amen to that, brother.
150
00:09:01,874 --> 00:09:03,398
Yeah.
151
00:09:04,577 --> 00:09:05,976
I got it. Come on.
152
00:09:11,817 --> 00:09:13,182
Hey.
153
00:09:13,386 --> 00:09:15,354
Prints came back
from the Department of Defense.
154
00:09:15,521 --> 00:09:17,785
We have a positive ID on the vic.
It's Michael Oates.
155
00:09:18,424 --> 00:09:20,915
No next of kin listed
on his military records,
156
00:09:21,093 --> 00:09:24,585
but there is a Kimberly Lane
that is listed as an emergency contact.
157
00:09:24,764 --> 00:09:27,255
All right. Look,
this guy was a Marine brother, Jack.
158
00:09:27,433 --> 00:09:29,458
I'm gonna make the notification
on my own.
159
00:09:32,138 --> 00:09:35,107
He was the most popular kid
in school.
160
00:09:37,443 --> 00:09:39,308
Everyone loved him.
161
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,907
But he never had it easy.
162
00:09:43,182 --> 00:09:44,877
Why's that?
163
00:09:45,051 --> 00:09:46,848
His dad worked in the freight yards.
164
00:09:47,019 --> 00:09:49,044
He was killed in an accident
when Michael was 6.
165
00:09:50,356 --> 00:09:52,881
His mom died
when he was still in high school.
166
00:09:53,059 --> 00:09:55,687
He pretty much raised himself.
167
00:09:56,295 --> 00:09:58,422
What happened to Michael
after the war?
168
00:09:58,998 --> 00:10:02,991
He came back from that third tour
in Afghanistan two years ago.
169
00:10:03,669 --> 00:10:05,193
He was a changed person.
170
00:10:06,038 --> 00:10:10,498
He had some trouble with pain pills,
and then drinking.
171
00:10:10,876 --> 00:10:14,368
He was in and out of therapy
for posttraumatic stress.
172
00:10:17,883 --> 00:10:19,316
When's the last time
you saw him?
173
00:10:19,719 --> 00:10:21,584
Three months ago.
174
00:10:21,954 --> 00:10:24,684
I drove him up to rehab in Vermont.
175
00:10:24,890 --> 00:10:26,824
He signed himself out
after two days.
176
00:10:28,761 --> 00:10:30,888
It was kind of like a last straw
for me.
177
00:10:32,832 --> 00:10:35,494
He left me these
when he moved out.
178
00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:36,896
His medals.
179
00:10:41,774 --> 00:10:44,208
Couple of Bronze Stars.
180
00:10:44,377 --> 00:10:45,708
Purple Heart.
181
00:10:46,278 --> 00:10:47,336
Hell of a Marine.
182
00:10:48,681 --> 00:10:51,047
The only one he kept
was the Silver Star.
183
00:10:51,684 --> 00:10:53,049
Michael had a Silver Star?
184
00:10:53,352 --> 00:10:55,286
For bravery in combat.
185
00:10:55,488 --> 00:10:57,046
He never let it out of his sight.
186
00:10:57,223 --> 00:11:00,090
He didn't have a Silver Star with him
when we found him.
187
00:11:00,393 --> 00:11:02,623
He never would have let that go.
188
00:11:03,863 --> 00:11:07,629
He had a dog tag, though.
Another Marine, a James Phelps.
189
00:11:08,134 --> 00:11:11,570
- Do you know who that was?
- Michael's best friend.
190
00:11:12,304 --> 00:11:14,363
They grew up together.
191
00:11:14,540 --> 00:11:16,440
Enlisted together, fought together.
192
00:11:18,277 --> 00:11:19,642
James didn't make it home?
193
00:11:26,252 --> 00:11:27,981
I hope you're gonna find out
who did this
194
00:11:28,154 --> 00:11:30,588
and make them pay
for what they did.
195
00:11:33,125 --> 00:11:35,116
Semper Fi.
196
00:11:40,933 --> 00:11:44,096
DCPI is not scheduled to be back
from vacation until next Thursday.
197
00:11:44,270 --> 00:11:46,670
But he offered to return sooner
if this story blows up.
198
00:11:46,839 --> 00:11:51,606
No. He's earned his time off.
I'll handle the press till he gets back.
199
00:11:53,045 --> 00:11:55,411
I'll need five minutes
without interruption.
200
00:11:56,082 --> 00:11:57,572
Yes, sir.
201
00:12:05,624 --> 00:12:07,421
- Hey, Dad.
- Hey, got a minute?
202
00:12:07,593 --> 00:12:09,288
For the police commissioner,
of course.
203
00:12:09,462 --> 00:12:11,487
For your father and a fellow Marine.
204
00:12:12,298 --> 00:12:13,322
Okay.
205
00:12:13,499 --> 00:12:16,866
I pulled Oates' citation
for his Silver Star.
206
00:12:17,069 --> 00:12:21,938
He was wounded and under heavy fire,
but he saved six of his men.
207
00:12:24,110 --> 00:12:25,702
And one didn't come home.
208
00:12:25,878 --> 00:12:27,607
Yeah, he's a...
209
00:12:28,180 --> 00:12:29,477
He was a hell of a Marine, Dad.
210
00:12:30,683 --> 00:12:31,843
How are you doing?
211
00:12:32,017 --> 00:12:33,575
I'm good. I'm just working the case.
212
00:12:34,453 --> 00:12:36,318
I just thought
213
00:12:36,489 --> 00:12:39,083
knowing what happened to him
over there might get to you.
214
00:12:39,391 --> 00:12:41,154
Just trying to find the killer, Dad.
215
00:12:41,327 --> 00:12:43,158
Just keep your head
and build your case.
216
00:12:43,863 --> 00:12:47,629
What are you saying? You're worried
I'm too pissed off to work the case?
217
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,291
Is that it? Because honestly,
and with all due respect,
218
00:12:50,469 --> 00:12:54,303
if it was me that was the victim,
I'd want the most pissed off detective
219
00:12:54,473 --> 00:13:00,070
- trying to figure out who did it to me.
- When a cop catches a case like this,
220
00:13:00,246 --> 00:13:01,304
he eats it and sleeps it.
221
00:13:03,415 --> 00:13:06,213
He can disappear from his own life.
222
00:13:06,552 --> 00:13:07,678
I got it, Dad.
223
00:13:07,853 --> 00:13:12,722
If you find yourself on your third beer
with the TV on and the door closed,
224
00:13:12,892 --> 00:13:15,622
put it down, turn it off,
225
00:13:16,262 --> 00:13:18,389
and go find Linda and the kids.
226
00:13:19,765 --> 00:13:22,563
Yeah. I appreciate it.
227
00:13:24,570 --> 00:13:27,198
Hey, Reagan, come here.
228
00:13:27,373 --> 00:13:30,274
I've been going through the video
from around the crime scene area.
229
00:13:30,442 --> 00:13:34,572
This is from a security camera
two blocks away from the alley.
230
00:13:34,747 --> 00:13:36,681
It's 3:15. It's right in our time frame.
231
00:13:37,016 --> 00:13:38,916
Whoa, hold that.
Can you zoom in on him?
232
00:13:39,084 --> 00:13:40,346
Mm-hm.
233
00:13:41,887 --> 00:13:44,253
I'm gonna bet that's blood
on his coat.
234
00:13:46,192 --> 00:13:49,593
All right. Here we go.
235
00:13:50,262 --> 00:13:52,594
- Hot off the presses.
- Yeah.
236
00:13:52,765 --> 00:13:54,699
My brother is really pushing hard
on this case.
237
00:13:54,867 --> 00:13:56,801
Hey, the victim was a Marine.
238
00:13:56,969 --> 00:13:58,800
- They never leave each other behind.
- Yeah.
239
00:13:58,971 --> 00:14:01,439
I know Danny spent some time
overseas with the Corps.
240
00:14:02,308 --> 00:14:03,536
He never talks about it.
241
00:14:04,443 --> 00:14:07,469
Guys who saw combat usually don't,
in my experience.
242
00:14:09,715 --> 00:14:11,273
My grandfather made it back
from Korea,
243
00:14:11,450 --> 00:14:15,181
my dad from Vietnam,
and Danny from Iraq.
244
00:14:15,454 --> 00:14:18,287
My junior year, I went to Europe.
I think it was the first time
245
00:14:18,457 --> 00:14:21,483
a man in my family left America
without a rifle in his hands.
246
00:14:21,694 --> 00:14:22,888
A regular diplomat.
247
00:14:25,698 --> 00:14:28,963
Last night?
Huge party for this major developer.
248
00:14:29,134 --> 00:14:30,658
Guys were spending
so fast and hard,
249
00:14:30,836 --> 00:14:32,736
it was like they were mad
at their money.
250
00:14:32,905 --> 00:14:34,236
What was the occasion?
251
00:14:34,406 --> 00:14:36,340
You know the West Gate Towers
over on 10th?
252
00:14:36,508 --> 00:14:39,477
Yeah, it's a Cassidy project.
The family built half the city.
253
00:14:39,645 --> 00:14:41,806
Those are the guys.
It was their topping off.
254
00:14:43,015 --> 00:14:46,075
They had a brief program,
then it was pretty much a bacchanal.
255
00:14:46,252 --> 00:14:49,813
- Place was rocking till we closed at 3.
- Got a security camera in the alley?
256
00:14:49,989 --> 00:14:51,752
Are you kidding? No.
257
00:14:52,258 --> 00:14:55,318
Only cameras they're paying for here
are pointed at the cash registers.
258
00:14:56,095 --> 00:15:00,031
All right, how about this guy?
Do you recognize him from last night?
259
00:15:00,232 --> 00:15:04,328
Uh... Yeah. Yeah, he's some sort of
PR guy for the Cassidy Group.
260
00:15:04,503 --> 00:15:06,767
He gave a speech.
It was pretty funny stuff.
261
00:15:07,139 --> 00:15:08,367
This comedian, he have a name?
262
00:15:12,811 --> 00:15:15,803
This is the program for the event.
263
00:15:16,248 --> 00:15:17,442
That's him.
264
00:15:17,616 --> 00:15:21,484
"Ian Seroy, VP for Communications
at Troy Cassidy Group, U.S.A."
265
00:15:26,292 --> 00:15:28,157
Ground floor in the back.
266
00:15:28,694 --> 00:15:30,059
I'm looking for lan Seroy.
267
00:15:31,630 --> 00:15:32,995
Hey.
268
00:15:33,565 --> 00:15:35,692
Uh... He didn't make it in today.
269
00:15:35,868 --> 00:15:38,666
- Is he sick?
- No. Actually, he just hasn't shown up.
270
00:15:38,837 --> 00:15:41,965
- I figured he must be sleeping it off.
- Is he that kind of guy?
271
00:15:43,575 --> 00:15:46,567
- You have an address for this guy?
- Sure.
272
00:15:51,550 --> 00:15:52,847
What happened to your hand?
273
00:15:53,285 --> 00:15:55,810
I work on construction sites.
You always get dinged.
274
00:15:55,988 --> 00:15:59,583
I worked as a mason tender as a kid.
I never saw a white hat lift a finger,
275
00:15:59,792 --> 00:16:01,157
never mind get dinged on a site.
276
00:16:01,327 --> 00:16:02,692
I'm a hands-on guy.
277
00:16:02,861 --> 00:16:05,091
I bet you are. What's your name?
278
00:16:05,297 --> 00:16:07,857
Phelan. Mark Phelan.
I'm the project manager.
279
00:16:08,033 --> 00:16:09,660
Okay, take my card.
280
00:16:09,835 --> 00:16:11,234
If he shows up, give us a call.
281
00:16:11,670 --> 00:16:13,103
Sure.
282
00:16:19,345 --> 00:16:20,744
Ian Seroy.
283
00:16:20,913 --> 00:16:22,437
We hear you make great speeches.
284
00:16:22,614 --> 00:16:25,583
Yeah. I'd love to hear
what you gotta say now.
285
00:16:25,751 --> 00:16:27,343
You have the right to remain silent.
286
00:16:27,519 --> 00:16:29,612
Anything you say can and will be used
against you in a court of law.
287
00:16:29,822 --> 00:16:30,914
Great luggage.
288
00:16:38,564 --> 00:16:40,623
You'll put a rush on that for us,
won't you?
289
00:16:40,833 --> 00:16:42,323
Thank you.
290
00:16:44,970 --> 00:16:46,460
- So, killer...
- Stop that.
291
00:16:46,638 --> 00:16:48,367
- Stop what?
- Calling me killer.
292
00:16:48,540 --> 00:16:49,564
What's your dress size?
293
00:16:51,143 --> 00:16:53,236
My what?
- She said what's your dress size.
294
00:16:53,412 --> 00:16:55,642
I'm a public relations professional.
295
00:16:55,848 --> 00:16:58,373
- I've got...
- You've got what?
296
00:16:58,717 --> 00:17:00,207
You got in over your head, huh?
297
00:17:00,953 --> 00:17:02,443
Huh?
298
00:17:04,556 --> 00:17:05,614
Are you crying?
299
00:17:05,791 --> 00:17:06,951
- He's crying.
- He is crying.
300
00:17:07,126 --> 00:17:10,095
What are you crying about?
What are you crying about?
301
00:17:10,262 --> 00:17:12,992
You crying about what you
and your two friends did last night?
302
00:17:13,165 --> 00:17:16,066
Beat a man and leave him to die.
Is that what you're crying about?
303
00:17:16,235 --> 00:17:20,433
It was the drinking. The whole...
Everything just... It just went...
304
00:17:20,606 --> 00:17:22,073
- Went? Went what?
- It went...
305
00:17:22,241 --> 00:17:24,732
- It went...
- It's okay. Just tell us.
306
00:17:24,910 --> 00:17:28,744
It just... It went so wrong.
307
00:17:29,148 --> 00:17:31,241
I was caught in the scrum,
308
00:17:31,417 --> 00:17:34,944
and people,
they were throwing fists and insults.
309
00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:36,485
The next thing you know, the...
310
00:17:36,822 --> 00:17:38,187
A man was dead?
311
00:17:41,393 --> 00:17:42,655
It's okay.
312
00:17:43,028 --> 00:17:44,655
It's okay.
313
00:17:45,597 --> 00:17:49,260
I'm sorry. We get a little emotional
sometimes, you know.
314
00:17:49,435 --> 00:17:50,663
You understand?
315
00:17:51,703 --> 00:17:54,672
We know you didn't do it alone,
okay?
316
00:17:57,009 --> 00:17:58,874
It was Mark Phelan.
317
00:17:59,044 --> 00:18:01,137
Right. And?
318
00:18:01,513 --> 00:18:04,175
And Cassidy.
319
00:18:04,349 --> 00:18:05,839
- Your boss.
- My boss.
320
00:18:06,018 --> 00:18:08,145
Yeah.
The boss. Everything just...
321
00:18:08,487 --> 00:18:10,148
It just went so out of control.
322
00:18:10,322 --> 00:18:12,153
- Yeah.
- I didn't mean it.
323
00:18:12,324 --> 00:18:14,485
I swear, I didn't mean it.
I'm not that kind of guy.
324
00:18:14,793 --> 00:18:18,024
I didn't mean to hurt anyone.
325
00:18:18,197 --> 00:18:19,221
Right.
326
00:18:19,431 --> 00:18:21,991
Those are famous last words, killer.
327
00:18:27,940 --> 00:18:31,842
Hey, Phil.
Getting awful tough on the Knicks.
328
00:18:44,056 --> 00:18:45,216
Drink, commissioner?
329
00:18:45,390 --> 00:18:46,687
Love one, Ray.
330
00:18:46,859 --> 00:18:49,555
But if I did, I'd have to read
about being a candidate
331
00:18:49,728 --> 00:18:51,662
for Betty Ford in your next column,
so no.
332
00:18:52,664 --> 00:18:54,325
I had impeccable sources.
333
00:18:54,500 --> 00:18:56,058
Really? Who?
334
00:18:56,902 --> 00:18:58,767
All due respect, no.
335
00:19:00,272 --> 00:19:03,605
You could have called me.
You could have called my DCPI.
336
00:19:04,209 --> 00:19:06,200
Well, there's nothing to deny or rebut,
Frank.
337
00:19:06,378 --> 00:19:08,676
It's just a kind of think piece.
338
00:19:09,681 --> 00:19:10,705
That's what you call it.
339
00:19:11,683 --> 00:19:13,947
Humor me here, Ray.
340
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,451
I will give you a description
of your source
341
00:19:16,622 --> 00:19:17,680
and you nod if I'm right.
342
00:19:18,190 --> 00:19:20,124
Oh, come on, Frank,
you know I can't do that.
343
00:19:21,293 --> 00:19:24,524
What I know
is you need access to my office
344
00:19:24,696 --> 00:19:26,789
a whole lot more than anyone else's.
345
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:30,230
What I know
is "Headless Body in Topless Bar"
346
00:19:30,402 --> 00:19:31,926
is a lot more your bread and butter
347
00:19:32,104 --> 00:19:34,538
than "Mayor Promises
Prompt Snow Removal."
348
00:19:34,706 --> 00:19:36,799
You can't eighty-six me,
commissioner.
349
00:19:37,009 --> 00:19:38,533
No, I can't.
350
00:19:38,877 --> 00:19:40,640
But, Ray,
351
00:19:41,246 --> 00:19:46,081
isn't it really all about how promptly
your phone calls are returned?
352
00:19:47,719 --> 00:19:51,246
Around 40, new in town,
easy on the eyes?
353
00:19:52,391 --> 00:19:53,415
What do you need me for?
354
00:19:53,592 --> 00:19:56,652
Well, unlike some,
355
00:19:56,828 --> 00:19:59,490
I like to make sure my sources
are solid
356
00:19:59,665 --> 00:20:01,633
and my facts are correct
before I commit.
357
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,062
Now you're pushing.
358
00:20:04,236 --> 00:20:05,635
Office in the hall.
359
00:20:13,812 --> 00:20:17,441
When I hired you,
you told me that you were intelligent.
360
00:20:18,150 --> 00:20:19,344
Well, you lied, dumb-ass.
361
00:20:19,551 --> 00:20:21,348
- Troy Cassidy.
- Yeah, that's me.
362
00:20:21,553 --> 00:20:22,747
Just hang on a second.
363
00:20:22,921 --> 00:20:24,752
Call the guy back,
get him to do this again.
364
00:20:24,923 --> 00:20:26,788
Because this is crap. I mean...
365
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,990
If he doesn't like it, he's finished,
and so are you.
366
00:20:31,163 --> 00:20:34,326
I said Troy Cassidy.
367
00:20:37,202 --> 00:20:39,636
Excuse me. I thought
you were from the carpenters' union.
368
00:20:39,805 --> 00:20:41,830
You're not half as funny
as you think you are.
369
00:20:42,007 --> 00:20:44,635
In fact, you're under arrest
for homicide.
370
00:20:45,177 --> 00:20:47,441
That's ridiculous.
I haven't done a damn thing.
371
00:20:47,613 --> 00:20:49,444
They say
when something bad happens to you,
372
00:20:49,615 --> 00:20:51,378
the first reaction is denial.
373
00:20:51,583 --> 00:20:53,676
Something real bad
is happening to you.
374
00:20:53,852 --> 00:20:55,479
You got caught.
375
00:20:55,654 --> 00:20:57,451
So your instincts
are right on the money.
376
00:20:57,623 --> 00:20:59,215
Let's go.
377
00:21:00,125 --> 00:21:01,956
- Call the lawyer.
- Let's go.
378
00:21:11,903 --> 00:21:13,734
I had the pleasure
of meeting Larry and Curly.
379
00:21:14,740 --> 00:21:16,970
Now I get to talk to Moe.
380
00:21:18,143 --> 00:21:20,236
Understand you left the club
with the other Stooges.
381
00:21:20,412 --> 00:21:22,505
I left by myself.
382
00:21:22,681 --> 00:21:24,979
Really? What time was that?
383
00:21:25,150 --> 00:21:27,175
I don't wear a watch. Around 3.
384
00:21:27,886 --> 00:21:29,581
Three o'clock.
385
00:21:29,755 --> 00:21:32,417
Right around the time a man happened
to be killed outside the club
386
00:21:32,624 --> 00:21:34,819
where you were throwing yourself
a little party, huh?
387
00:21:34,993 --> 00:21:36,187
It's a violent city.
388
00:21:36,361 --> 00:21:37,726
And you're a violent man.
389
00:21:39,131 --> 00:21:40,996
So we got a problem.
390
00:21:41,166 --> 00:21:45,398
Your pal lan Seroy says
you and Mark Phelan killed that man.
391
00:21:45,570 --> 00:21:47,231
Right in an alley behind the club.
392
00:21:47,406 --> 00:21:49,237
- That's nonsense.
- Is it?
393
00:21:49,408 --> 00:21:52,536
Besides, Seroy is a putz. And he'd tell
you anything you wanna hear.
394
00:21:52,711 --> 00:21:54,440
But Phelan, I'd believe it.
395
00:21:54,780 --> 00:21:57,772
I think he has a record.
I think he's even been to jail.
396
00:21:57,949 --> 00:22:00,349
- And yet you hired him.
- My father did.
397
00:22:00,519 --> 00:22:04,011
He believed in second chances,
but I think the guy is shady.
398
00:22:04,523 --> 00:22:06,218
Now, is that just a coincidence
399
00:22:06,391 --> 00:22:09,724
that he takes off the minute you guys
walk off the job site this morning
400
00:22:09,895 --> 00:22:11,954
when you came to look for Seroy?
401
00:22:12,164 --> 00:22:13,654
He probably killed that bum.
402
00:22:14,700 --> 00:22:18,636
That bum
was a high school football star
403
00:22:18,804 --> 00:22:20,965
and a class valedictorian.
404
00:22:21,173 --> 00:22:23,539
And he gave up a scholarship
to fight for his country
405
00:22:23,709 --> 00:22:26,177
to protect cowards like you.
406
00:22:26,778 --> 00:22:28,370
He was a Marine.
407
00:22:28,947 --> 00:22:31,415
Sounds like he made
a lot of bad choices in life.
408
00:22:31,817 --> 00:22:33,614
Maybe so.
409
00:22:34,753 --> 00:22:36,778
You know, one day real soon,
410
00:22:36,955 --> 00:22:40,982
you're gonna be a lonely, rich boy
cowering away in punk city,
411
00:22:41,393 --> 00:22:43,987
terrified every day of your life.
412
00:22:44,629 --> 00:22:45,891
And I'm gonna come visit.
413
00:22:47,132 --> 00:22:49,430
I'm gonna ask you
about the choices you made.
414
00:22:51,570 --> 00:22:54,630
And we'll see what kind of smart-ass
answers you got then, tough guy.
415
00:22:57,809 --> 00:22:59,003
Lawyers are here.
416
00:23:02,614 --> 00:23:05,606
Two lawyers. Must be nice having
Dad's money at your beck and call.
417
00:23:05,784 --> 00:23:08,514
- You know I make my own money?
- Yeah, and I'm Jay-Z.
418
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,154
This way, tough guy.
You're not going home yet.
419
00:23:11,323 --> 00:23:12,950
Open up.
420
00:23:16,027 --> 00:23:17,085
Get inside.
421
00:23:17,262 --> 00:23:19,856
- Keep him cuffed.
- You're a real tough guy
422
00:23:20,031 --> 00:23:21,589
with a badge and a gun, aren't you?
423
00:23:21,767 --> 00:23:24,201
Maybe you'll find out one day.
424
00:23:24,369 --> 00:23:25,961
You want him? Go see a judge.
425
00:23:26,138 --> 00:23:28,504
- You are in over your head.
- I'm in over my head?
426
00:23:28,673 --> 00:23:32,666
I didn't kill a Marine.
You don't like it, sue me.
427
00:23:36,748 --> 00:23:40,184
What are you talking about? Ian Seroy
admitted him and the other two guys,
428
00:23:40,352 --> 00:23:41,478
they killed Michael Oates.
429
00:23:41,653 --> 00:23:43,280
It was Cassidy
who was the ringleader.
430
00:23:43,455 --> 00:23:45,286
You know better than I do
that in this state,
431
00:23:45,457 --> 00:23:47,186
uncorroborated
codefendant testimony
432
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,520
is not admissible.
Doesn't mean a damn thing.
433
00:23:49,694 --> 00:23:52,060
Can we hold the guy for a day at least?
Please?
434
00:23:52,264 --> 00:23:54,164
You see those lawyers
trailing behind him?
435
00:23:54,332 --> 00:23:56,300
They are not legal aid attorneys
436
00:23:56,468 --> 00:23:58,663
just fresh off the boat
from Hucklebuck Law School.
437
00:23:58,837 --> 00:24:01,203
So two fancy suits
with nice haircuts show up,
438
00:24:01,373 --> 00:24:02,533
my sister is backing down?
439
00:24:02,707 --> 00:24:04,698
No. I'm just waiting for my brother
to show up
440
00:24:04,876 --> 00:24:07,174
with some evidence
I can actually use to nail the guy.
441
00:24:08,814 --> 00:24:11,749
Okay. This Phelan guy,
his doorman called,
442
00:24:11,917 --> 00:24:14,579
said he saw him go out the back door
of his apartment building.
443
00:24:14,786 --> 00:24:16,651
Great. Let's go.
444
00:24:17,355 --> 00:24:18,982
I'll put him through the system.
445
00:24:20,325 --> 00:24:23,920
- It will buy you a day.
- That's the sister that I know and love.
446
00:24:34,239 --> 00:24:35,729
Where's he going?
447
00:24:39,611 --> 00:24:41,340
Come on.
448
00:24:47,219 --> 00:24:48,914
Let me see your hands!
449
00:24:49,087 --> 00:24:52,022
I said put your hands
where I can see them!
450
00:24:52,624 --> 00:24:55,024
Ain't a rat hole on Earth
you can hide from me, scumbag.
451
00:24:55,527 --> 00:24:56,789
Turn around.
452
00:24:56,962 --> 00:24:58,327
- Spread your legs.
- Uhn!
453
00:24:59,364 --> 00:25:01,764
- I was not running from anything.
Really?
454
00:25:01,933 --> 00:25:03,560
You just wake up one morning
and decide:
455
00:25:03,735 --> 00:25:06,067
"Hey, I'm gonna get a one-way ticket
to Johannesburg"?
456
00:25:06,404 --> 00:25:08,872
Your pal lan Seroy
put you front and center at the scene
457
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,806
of an assault that turned into murder.
Found your blood type at the scene.
458
00:25:12,978 --> 00:25:15,947
Probably from your little battle wound
there.
459
00:25:16,781 --> 00:25:17,941
So, what are we gonna find?
460
00:25:18,116 --> 00:25:20,050
We gonna find
that DNA is a match to you, huh?
461
00:25:20,619 --> 00:25:22,280
Because you can lie all you want,
punk.
462
00:25:22,454 --> 00:25:24,217
But the DNA never lies.
463
00:25:28,226 --> 00:25:29,625
What happened?
464
00:25:30,295 --> 00:25:31,489
Why did you kill him?
465
00:25:34,966 --> 00:25:38,800
He was harassing us,
begging in our face, all aggressive.
466
00:25:38,970 --> 00:25:40,562
I told him to step off.
467
00:25:40,739 --> 00:25:41,763
Hmm. Step off.
468
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,970
The guy swung at me,
and Seroy started punching him.
469
00:25:45,143 --> 00:25:48,169
The guy was a handful.
Like, almost crazy.
470
00:25:48,380 --> 00:25:50,245
So I went to pull him off.
471
00:25:50,515 --> 00:25:52,915
But he fell to the ground.
472
00:25:53,084 --> 00:25:54,108
Maybe he hit his head.
473
00:25:55,654 --> 00:25:56,882
So it was just you and Seroy?
474
00:25:58,256 --> 00:25:59,746
What about your boss Cassidy?
475
00:26:00,325 --> 00:26:01,986
Cassidy?
476
00:26:02,427 --> 00:26:03,587
I said what about Cassidy?
477
00:26:04,029 --> 00:26:05,997
Cassidy wasn't even there.
478
00:26:21,313 --> 00:26:24,373
Hey.
We got a DNA match on Phelan
479
00:26:24,549 --> 00:26:26,483
- and nothing on Cassidy.
- Figures.
480
00:26:26,651 --> 00:26:28,516
It's all starting to make sense now.
481
00:26:28,687 --> 00:26:31,053
A bunch of cell phone calls
between Cassidy and Phelan.
482
00:26:31,222 --> 00:26:33,315
Started right after we went
after Seroy.
483
00:26:33,491 --> 00:26:35,186
Buddies getting their stories straight.
484
00:26:35,360 --> 00:26:37,294
We can't prove anything
on these phone calls.
485
00:26:37,462 --> 00:26:40,727
I know. Why would Phelan lie
for a scumbag like Cassidy?
486
00:26:40,932 --> 00:26:42,991
If your daddy gave you
a hundred million dollars,
487
00:26:43,168 --> 00:26:45,295
you'd probably use it
to keep you out of prison.
488
00:26:45,470 --> 00:26:47,802
Hey, look at this.
I came up with five assault complaints
489
00:26:47,973 --> 00:26:49,497
against Cassidy
over the last decade.
490
00:26:49,674 --> 00:26:51,403
Charges dropped
on every one of them.
491
00:26:51,576 --> 00:26:54,170
What?
- Yep. This vic lost an eye.
492
00:26:54,346 --> 00:26:56,974
This one
was in a medically induced coma.
493
00:26:57,148 --> 00:26:59,013
Victims refused to testify.
494
00:26:59,184 --> 00:27:00,742
Cassidy is paying off his victims.
495
00:27:00,952 --> 00:27:02,214
Yeah. Looks that way to me.
496
00:27:02,387 --> 00:27:03,979
Yeah. And this time, the victim died,
497
00:27:04,155 --> 00:27:06,350
- so he's paying off accomplices.
- Right.
498
00:27:08,326 --> 00:27:09,759
That girl.
499
00:27:10,395 --> 00:27:13,159
We've gotta find this girl, Sissy.
She was in the alley that night.
500
00:27:13,331 --> 00:27:16,198
She probably saw the whole thing.
And if Cassidy is paying off Phelan,
501
00:27:16,368 --> 00:27:18,768
it's the only way we're gonna make
a case against him.
502
00:27:27,779 --> 00:27:30,077
In your line of work,
I suppose you get used
503
00:27:30,248 --> 00:27:31,772
to uncomfortable silences.
504
00:27:32,484 --> 00:27:35,009
It's like a muscle you develop.
505
00:27:36,855 --> 00:27:38,789
Nifty little job of recycling.
506
00:27:38,990 --> 00:27:40,753
- Recycling?
- You come to me
507
00:27:40,925 --> 00:27:43,519
with some flattering offers
for magazine profiles.
508
00:27:43,695 --> 00:27:45,754
I decline, you call Ray Curston
509
00:27:45,930 --> 00:27:47,989
to make it sound
like they were my idea.
510
00:27:48,433 --> 00:27:50,128
I suppose that's one way
to look at it.
511
00:27:50,301 --> 00:27:51,359
You got another way?
512
00:27:51,536 --> 00:27:52,628
Dozens. It's what I do.
513
00:27:53,371 --> 00:27:55,896
I don't wanna get into a spitting contest
with you.
514
00:27:57,108 --> 00:27:58,871
The title on my card, Frank...
515
00:27:59,044 --> 00:28:00,102
May I call you Frank?
516
00:28:00,278 --> 00:28:02,439
Apparently, you think you can
call me anything.
517
00:28:02,614 --> 00:28:05,583
It reads deputy press secretary,
Office of the Mayor.
518
00:28:05,750 --> 00:28:07,615
Does your press secretary go off
to the media
519
00:28:07,786 --> 00:28:09,447
with a spin
you didn't personally approve?
520
00:28:09,621 --> 00:28:11,145
Not if he wanted to keep his job.
521
00:28:12,123 --> 00:28:13,613
I like my job, Frank.
522
00:28:13,792 --> 00:28:15,726
I like the city it's brought me to.
523
00:28:15,894 --> 00:28:18,089
And I'd like to think you know
this wasn't my idea.
524
00:28:19,431 --> 00:28:23,026
What I wanna know is
when you pushed back,
525
00:28:23,735 --> 00:28:25,828
when you told him
that slanting me like that
526
00:28:26,037 --> 00:28:29,905
would be stark-naked not true,
what did he say?
527
00:28:32,444 --> 00:28:34,412
You think too much of me,
commissioner.
528
00:28:34,679 --> 00:28:36,977
Oh, I don't think we're in any danger
of that.
529
00:28:38,416 --> 00:28:39,781
I owe you one.
530
00:28:41,352 --> 00:28:45,448
Well, as we used to say
when I was a kid:
531
00:28:45,623 --> 00:28:48,751
Nice to see you,
wouldn't wanna be you.
532
00:28:58,970 --> 00:29:00,164
Sissy.
533
00:29:00,338 --> 00:29:01,999
- No, it's okay.
- No. Leave me alone.
534
00:29:02,173 --> 00:29:04,641
It's okay. I knew you'd come back
to honor Michael.
535
00:29:04,809 --> 00:29:06,606
We just wanna talk about Michael,
okay?
536
00:29:07,112 --> 00:29:09,637
We just wanna find out
what happened to him.
537
00:29:09,814 --> 00:29:11,873
- We just want to talk.
It's all right. Come on.
538
00:29:12,083 --> 00:29:13,345
You come with us?
539
00:29:13,518 --> 00:29:15,281
You saw all three of them hit him,
right?
540
00:29:15,453 --> 00:29:17,182
Which one did what?
541
00:29:17,355 --> 00:29:20,017
This one was the worst.
- Why?
542
00:29:20,492 --> 00:29:23,586
Michael was fighting with this one,
543
00:29:24,462 --> 00:29:27,363
and this one hit Michael in the head
with a bat.
544
00:29:28,366 --> 00:29:31,631
And then Michael wasn't moving
anymore.
545
00:29:31,803 --> 00:29:34,897
A bat. Like a baseball bat?
Where did this bat come from?
546
00:29:35,106 --> 00:29:38,041
It was Michael's.
He kept it for protection.
547
00:29:38,209 --> 00:29:39,733
And this guy hit him with it.
548
00:29:39,911 --> 00:29:41,173
What did they do with the bat?
549
00:29:41,346 --> 00:29:43,337
Leave it, take it with them?
Can you remember?
550
00:29:43,515 --> 00:29:45,039
Took it, I think.
551
00:29:45,216 --> 00:29:46,683
Okay. Anything else?
552
00:29:48,987 --> 00:29:53,424
When they were running away,
they were all laughing.
553
00:30:04,435 --> 00:30:08,929
Look, I'll get coverage from the scene
and the surrounding area.
554
00:30:09,140 --> 00:30:12,166
- We'll find it.
- I know.
555
00:30:15,780 --> 00:30:17,543
I understand.
556
00:30:17,715 --> 00:30:19,273
Thanks.
557
00:30:22,687 --> 00:30:24,018
That was my boss.
558
00:30:24,556 --> 00:30:27,047
Sissy's statement gives us
another piece of the puzzle,
559
00:30:27,225 --> 00:30:29,420
but we could use
that physical evidence.
560
00:30:29,594 --> 00:30:30,720
I'll find the bat.
561
00:30:30,895 --> 00:30:34,695
Well, hopefully you can find the bat
and there will be some useable prints.
562
00:30:34,866 --> 00:30:37,801
I'm doing the best I can. Would it be
possible to get just a little love
563
00:30:37,969 --> 00:30:39,459
maybe from your people?
Just one time?
564
00:30:40,038 --> 00:30:42,734
I can put Sissy in a hotel,
get her cleaned up.
565
00:30:42,907 --> 00:30:45,398
I can work with her
on how to give a credible testimony.
566
00:30:45,577 --> 00:30:50,605
But she is still a homeless girl
with a record of prostitution and drugs.
567
00:30:50,782 --> 00:30:53,250
Come on.
This girl has no reason to lie.
568
00:30:53,418 --> 00:30:56,114
She is going to get destroyed
on the stand.
569
00:30:56,921 --> 00:30:59,389
If Cassidy walks,
you can't try this case again.
570
00:30:59,557 --> 00:31:00,581
Double jeopardy.
571
00:31:01,292 --> 00:31:05,092
If you want me to put Sissy on the stand,
roll the dice with her, I will do it.
572
00:31:05,263 --> 00:31:07,754
Just make sure you can handle
both outcomes.
573
00:31:11,636 --> 00:31:14,434
I've had convictions on weaker cases,
but half the time,
574
00:31:14,606 --> 00:31:17,006
it's because the defendant shows up
with a public defender
575
00:31:17,208 --> 00:31:18,835
that's completely burnt out.
576
00:31:19,010 --> 00:31:20,773
Well, I like to think
we're in the business
577
00:31:20,945 --> 00:31:23,072
of leveling the playing field for victims
but...
578
00:31:23,248 --> 00:31:25,739
What burns me
is every one of Cassidy's lawyers
579
00:31:25,917 --> 00:31:28,613
- is a former prosecutor.
- Law school is expensive.
580
00:31:28,786 --> 00:31:31,516
- Gotta pay student loans somehow.
- Yeah.
581
00:31:31,723 --> 00:31:37,958
And here we have cheesecake
from Junior's.
582
00:31:38,129 --> 00:31:40,427
- Wow.
- Mm. Ooh.
583
00:31:40,598 --> 00:31:43,158
I remember the summer they opened,
1950.
584
00:31:43,334 --> 00:31:45,825
I had 16-inch biceps.
585
00:31:47,272 --> 00:31:50,639
The Dodgers were in a playoff run.
"Mona Lisa" was playing on the radio.
586
00:31:51,476 --> 00:31:53,205
When does Nicky get back
from her dad's?
587
00:31:53,378 --> 00:31:55,812
- I gotta pick her up later.
- Wait till she hears you got her tickets
588
00:31:55,980 --> 00:31:57,607
to American Idiot on Broadway.
589
00:31:57,982 --> 00:31:59,711
- No, babe.
- You okay?
590
00:31:59,884 --> 00:32:01,351
Yeah.
Barely said anything.
591
00:32:01,519 --> 00:32:03,384
Yeah. Tough case to shake, honey.
592
00:32:04,255 --> 00:32:06,621
It's true that guy was wearing
his best friend's dog tags
593
00:32:06,791 --> 00:32:08,349
- when you found him, Danny?
- Yeah.
594
00:32:08,526 --> 00:32:13,327
Yeah, he's the guy he couldn't save
the night he earned his Silver Star.
595
00:32:13,498 --> 00:32:14,658
What's a Silver Star?
596
00:32:14,832 --> 00:32:17,960
It's one of our country's
highest awards for bravery in combat.
597
00:32:18,136 --> 00:32:20,127
Like a trophy for football?
598
00:32:20,471 --> 00:32:21,995
No, Sean.
599
00:32:22,173 --> 00:32:25,040
It's not at all like that.
There are some things we do in life
600
00:32:25,209 --> 00:32:27,837
that are more important
than the things we do for fun.
601
00:32:28,579 --> 00:32:30,774
Are you gonna catch the bad guys,
Dad?
602
00:32:31,716 --> 00:32:34,241
Yeah. I'm gonna do my best.
603
00:32:34,419 --> 00:32:36,512
Kind of like I always tell you
and your brother.
604
00:32:36,688 --> 00:32:39,919
If you believe in something,
you keep fighting for it, no matter what.
605
00:32:40,091 --> 00:32:42,025
That's what your grandpa
always taught me.
606
00:32:42,193 --> 00:32:43,387
And Pop taught me.
607
00:32:43,561 --> 00:32:44,653
Down the generations.
608
00:32:46,364 --> 00:32:50,698
I guess that makes catching
the bad guys the right thing to do.
609
00:32:50,868 --> 00:32:52,358
Mm-hm.
610
00:32:54,572 --> 00:32:56,199
Excuse me, Dad.
611
00:33:01,446 --> 00:33:07,214
When you see yourself in a victim,
it really eats away at you.
612
00:33:08,252 --> 00:33:12,279
You've been a million miles away
these past few days.
613
00:33:12,457 --> 00:33:14,448
What's going on?
614
00:33:19,397 --> 00:33:21,422
There was this one night.
615
00:33:23,134 --> 00:33:25,728
I was out on patrol in Iraq.
616
00:33:25,903 --> 00:33:27,336
I sprained my ankle.
617
00:33:30,041 --> 00:33:32,339
Stepped in a ditch or something,
I don't know.
618
00:33:32,910 --> 00:33:34,275
Anyway, I was fine.
619
00:33:34,445 --> 00:33:37,642
I got back to the fire base, iced it up.
No problem.
620
00:33:38,950 --> 00:33:43,410
The next day, they sent somebody else
out in my place.
621
00:33:45,556 --> 00:33:47,456
Bobby LaRue.
622
00:33:48,593 --> 00:33:51,153
I called him Chuckles, you know?
623
00:33:52,397 --> 00:33:54,729
- Like the candy Gramp likes.
- Like the candy.
624
00:33:57,735 --> 00:34:00,397
Sweetest hillbilly kid you ever met.
625
00:34:02,173 --> 00:34:04,869
He was out about 20 minutes,
you know,
626
00:34:07,912 --> 00:34:11,006
before a sniper put a round
through his neck.
627
00:34:17,321 --> 00:34:19,186
He was 19.
628
00:34:24,996 --> 00:34:27,021
Stupid kid.
629
00:34:31,402 --> 00:34:32,596
It should've been me.
630
00:34:32,770 --> 00:34:34,169
No.
631
00:34:34,338 --> 00:34:35,771
No.
632
00:34:36,007 --> 00:34:40,467
Some days I look at you,
and I look at my boys.
633
00:34:43,481 --> 00:34:44,709
And I just think:
634
00:34:44,916 --> 00:34:48,545
"Did that 19-year-old kid
have to give his life
635
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,914
so I could have all this?"
636
00:35:09,173 --> 00:35:11,004
Troy Cassidy.
637
00:35:12,877 --> 00:35:14,674
My lawyer says
you can't come near me.
638
00:35:14,846 --> 00:35:17,144
I don't see any lawyers around.
639
00:35:17,548 --> 00:35:18,572
What do you want?
640
00:35:18,983 --> 00:35:22,441
Thought about what you said.
So I left my gun and badge behind.
641
00:35:23,454 --> 00:35:25,422
Just stay away from me.
642
00:35:25,590 --> 00:35:27,581
Where you going, huh?
643
00:35:27,758 --> 00:35:29,726
- What do you think you're doing?
- What do you think you're doing?
644
00:35:30,228 --> 00:35:32,059
Not so tough now it's one-on-one.
645
00:35:32,230 --> 00:35:33,595
Who do you think you are, huh?
646
00:35:33,764 --> 00:35:37,325
I'm the guy who's gonna make you pay
for your sins once and for all.
647
00:35:37,502 --> 00:35:39,231
Hey!
Once and for all.
648
00:35:39,403 --> 00:35:40,427
- Take it easy.
Get off.
649
00:35:40,605 --> 00:35:42,903
- Take it easy. Take it easy.
- Get off me!
650
00:35:43,074 --> 00:35:44,098
- You all right?
- Yeah.
651
00:35:44,275 --> 00:35:47,244
I'm gonna get you.
One way or another.
652
00:35:47,411 --> 00:35:48,503
- Easy.
- I'm on the job.
653
00:35:48,679 --> 00:35:50,169
- Take care of your guy.
Live here?
654
00:35:50,348 --> 00:35:52,043
Take it easy, man.
- I own the building.
655
00:35:52,216 --> 00:35:54,980
You don't wanna get jammed up
over this clown.
656
00:35:59,724 --> 00:36:02,716
Getting inside a perp's head
is a good, solid tactic,
657
00:36:02,894 --> 00:36:05,954
but still, you're lucky
those were old-school cops.
658
00:36:06,130 --> 00:36:08,428
All I wanted to do
was to let Cassidy know
659
00:36:08,599 --> 00:36:10,931
that he's not out of reach,
he will never be out of reach.
660
00:36:11,269 --> 00:36:13,203
If you can't keep your emotions
in check,
661
00:36:13,371 --> 00:36:16,272
I will sit you down
just like I would anybody else.
662
00:36:17,575 --> 00:36:18,940
I lost my head.
663
00:36:19,944 --> 00:36:22,378
You know,
I saw the smug look on Cassidy's face,
664
00:36:22,547 --> 00:36:24,572
and just thinking
that a guy like him can get away
665
00:36:24,749 --> 00:36:26,410
with killing a Marine
like Michael Oates.
666
00:36:26,584 --> 00:36:28,882
We all know what he went through
over there.
667
00:36:29,053 --> 00:36:31,385
To think he could walk
through that hell storm
668
00:36:31,556 --> 00:36:32,887
and come back here
and end up dead
669
00:36:33,057 --> 00:36:34,957
like a dog in the streets
of his own city?
670
00:36:35,126 --> 00:36:38,254
Taking Cassidy down
will not bring Michael Oates back,
671
00:36:38,429 --> 00:36:40,795
and it will not give you answers
to what happened in Iraq.
672
00:36:41,599 --> 00:36:44,090
What it will do
is bring a killer to justice,
673
00:36:44,268 --> 00:36:46,065
and that has to be enough here.
674
00:36:48,406 --> 00:36:52,308
Look, Cassidy has got money,
but he's not a professional killer.
675
00:36:52,476 --> 00:36:55,536
He made mistakes.
676
00:36:55,813 --> 00:36:57,906
It's up to you to make him pay for it.
677
00:36:59,684 --> 00:37:01,345
Yes, sir.
678
00:37:04,689 --> 00:37:06,782
That the stuff from the search
of Phelan's loft?
679
00:37:06,958 --> 00:37:09,984
- Yeah, sarge.
- Crying shame if a punk like Cassidy
680
00:37:10,161 --> 00:37:12,595
- gets away with murder.
- Well, we got two choices.
681
00:37:12,763 --> 00:37:15,254
Get Phelan to tell the truth or come up
with physical evidence
682
00:37:15,433 --> 00:37:17,867
that ties Cassidy
to the scene of the crime.
683
00:37:18,169 --> 00:37:19,830
- What is it?
- It's a taxi receipt
684
00:37:20,004 --> 00:37:21,164
from the night of the murder.
685
00:37:21,339 --> 00:37:23,102
Times out around the time
of the killing.
686
00:37:23,808 --> 00:37:25,173
Greedy son of a bitch.
687
00:37:25,343 --> 00:37:27,038
Phelan used a taxi
for a getaway car.
688
00:37:27,211 --> 00:37:28,974
- Gotta find this cab driver.
- All right.
689
00:37:29,513 --> 00:37:32,380
The mayor finishes his remarks
and hands off to the commissioner.
690
00:37:32,583 --> 00:37:35,177
The commissioner awards the plaque,
a few softball questions,
691
00:37:35,353 --> 00:37:37,116
- and we're out.
- If you get any questions
692
00:37:37,288 --> 00:37:39,119
about me running for mayor,
you'll take them.
693
00:37:41,325 --> 00:37:42,986
- I will?
- Say it was a misunderstanding
694
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:44,525
on your part.
695
00:37:44,695 --> 00:37:45,992
That sounds like an order.
696
00:37:46,163 --> 00:37:48,495
No, it's just a friendly request.
697
00:37:49,634 --> 00:37:51,795
I can't pretend to speak for you.
698
00:37:51,969 --> 00:37:53,732
Recent history suggests otherwise.
699
00:37:58,409 --> 00:38:00,707
- Give us a moment.
- Certainly.
700
00:38:05,249 --> 00:38:06,739
I'm not sure I'm following you here.
701
00:38:06,917 --> 00:38:09,977
Your press office fed Ray Curston
with an impression of me
702
00:38:10,154 --> 00:38:12,247
that we both know
to be wildly inaccurate.
703
00:38:12,423 --> 00:38:15,358
No. That's just Ray
on a slow news day, stirring the pot.
704
00:38:15,526 --> 00:38:17,517
That's not what happened.
705
00:38:19,196 --> 00:38:20,220
End of the day,
706
00:38:20,398 --> 00:38:22,491
we're both in the people business,
Frank.
707
00:38:22,667 --> 00:38:25,363
Once in a while,
you take one for the team.
708
00:38:25,770 --> 00:38:28,034
I never really thought of us
as a team.
709
00:38:28,572 --> 00:38:29,869
No? The last time I looked,
710
00:38:30,041 --> 00:38:33,101
they don't hold elections for sheriff
in this town.
711
00:38:33,277 --> 00:38:34,608
It's an appointed position.
712
00:38:34,779 --> 00:38:36,576
It's appointed by me.
713
00:38:36,747 --> 00:38:38,044
I know that.
714
00:38:38,215 --> 00:38:40,410
Okay, so you give a little
and you get a little.
715
00:38:40,584 --> 00:38:41,846
I gave. What do I get?
716
00:38:42,019 --> 00:38:44,453
You get to be
my police commissioner.
717
00:38:51,729 --> 00:38:52,957
Excuse me.
718
00:38:53,164 --> 00:38:56,361
Your boss said the guy who does the
overnights called in sick on Thursday.
719
00:38:56,534 --> 00:38:58,092
Says you did a double in his place.
720
00:38:58,269 --> 00:39:00,260
- That's right.
- We spoke to a cab driver
721
00:39:00,438 --> 00:39:02,531
that said he took this man here,
waited for him.
722
00:39:02,707 --> 00:39:03,731
Do you know who this is?
723
00:39:03,908 --> 00:39:05,933
That's the project manager.
Mark Phelan.
724
00:39:06,110 --> 00:39:08,943
- That's right.
- He came by at 3:30.
725
00:39:09,113 --> 00:39:10,671
He ran in, said he'd be a minute.
726
00:39:11,082 --> 00:39:13,312
- What did he do?
- Went into the office for a minute.
727
00:39:14,785 --> 00:39:18,221
And when he was leaving, he tossed
a Hefty bag into the dumpster.
728
00:39:18,989 --> 00:39:21,048
This dumpster right here?
729
00:39:22,493 --> 00:39:23,983
When was the last time
they picked up?
730
00:39:24,195 --> 00:39:26,129
Every Monday.
The guy should be here any minute.
731
00:39:26,897 --> 00:39:28,956
You find a bat in there?
732
00:39:29,767 --> 00:39:31,496
Not a bat.
733
00:39:32,636 --> 00:39:33,728
Something better. A coat.
734
00:39:36,140 --> 00:39:37,198
It's covered with blood.
735
00:39:39,977 --> 00:39:42,502
TKC. Troy Kennedy Cassidy.
736
00:39:45,449 --> 00:39:46,939
Son of a bitch.
737
00:39:47,485 --> 00:39:50,648
Okay. Let me run this into the car.
738
00:39:51,756 --> 00:39:53,121
Where's Troy Cassidy right now?
739
00:39:53,424 --> 00:39:54,448
Up on ten.
740
00:39:54,625 --> 00:39:56,092
Up on ten, huh?
741
00:39:59,930 --> 00:40:02,421
Absolutely not. Abso...
742
00:40:04,301 --> 00:40:07,031
Listen. I have to go, call you back.
743
00:40:07,338 --> 00:40:09,704
What the hell do you want now?
744
00:40:09,874 --> 00:40:11,102
Look familiar?
745
00:40:14,345 --> 00:40:17,678
You're under arrest for the murder
of Michael Oates. Now turn around.
746
00:40:18,749 --> 00:40:19,943
Turn around.
747
00:40:26,757 --> 00:40:28,987
I was hoping
you'd do something stupid.
748
00:41:04,895 --> 00:41:07,659
Now how the hell do you like it, huh?
How does it feel, huh?
749
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,698
You like getting hit
when you're down?
750
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:17,302
Here, wanna see how he felt?
751
00:41:18,075 --> 00:41:19,508
Huh?
752
00:41:36,527 --> 00:41:38,461
- Reagan.
- It's okay.
753
00:41:38,629 --> 00:41:41,427
It's all right. Just cuff him.
754
00:41:41,599 --> 00:41:43,260
Just cuff him.
755
00:41:48,472 --> 00:41:50,599
Eternal rest grant unto him,
oh, Lord,
756
00:41:50,774 --> 00:41:53,299
and may perpetual light
shine upon him.
757
00:41:53,477 --> 00:41:56,310
May he rest in peace. Amen.
758
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,472
May his soul and all the souls
of the faithful departed,
759
00:41:59,650 --> 00:42:02,847
through the mercy of God,
rest in peace.
760
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,953
In the name of the Father,
and of the Son,
761
00:42:06,123 --> 00:42:08,853
and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.
762
00:42:38,789 --> 00:42:42,452
If I didn't have this family,
who's to say that wouldn't be me?
763
00:42:42,993 --> 00:42:44,984
You do have us, Danny.
764
00:42:45,162 --> 00:42:47,426
Never forget that.
