Do you believe this, captain . Do you believe hed go this far . What are you talking about . I knew lieutenant buntz was a loose cannon, but i never thought hed go endangering peoples lives. You think lieutenant buntz had something to do with this fire . Were very close to filing charges on the evidentiary theft. The coke came from the suitcase. How do you figure a guy like that, huh . Maybe he wants to bring the whole house down with him. Lieutenant shipman. Raised the possibility of arson ive been told they can show me the spot on the fuse box where the current overloaded that heights file is on its way. Thanks. If you have enough to arrest buntz for stealing evidence, go ahead. Whats with the angry tone of voice . Otherwise, leave us alone captain whats our status . Your, uh, power is hit bad. You got the wet, and you got the stink. Ive also got a serial killer and an i. A. D. Investigation in progress. If its possible not to relocate, thats how id like to proceed. Now. Your base structure is holding up. The only area that id make a question mark is back there in the corner. [ sighs ] otherwise, you should be all right. Dispatch. We have a 911 Armed Robbery in progress, surplus store, corner of peebles drive and 124th street. [ slow piano music plays ] [ sighs ] are we following some organized regimen here, sergeant, as to cleanup . Well, uh, everyone handles the area they work in. I guess were lucky the joints still standing. Only temporarily. No doubt they will level and rebuild. No kidding. Lieutenant. Sergeant. Melancholy event, hmm . When does the new building go up, chief . Not my department, sergeant. [ telephone ringing ] gentlemen. Two seconds on another matter. Charges filed yet on our friend buntz for stealing that cocaine . Not yet. I want them filed. Talk to i. A. D. I want our losses cut with that throwback so, what page are you on with these hooker murders . What page he and his task force are on. Oh, penzickis stuck. Theyve been on page one since the unit was formed 10 months ago. Were just doing what mortals can. Which obviously does not include catching the killer frank. I know todays a logistical nightmare, but i want you fullbore on that maniac. Detective penzickis got us up to speed on what the task force has developed. Im sure that was a highly informative conversation. Did you show them the piece in the Law Enforcement monthly where were second from the to in multiple, unsolved homicides . I got it here somewhere, chief. Detective penzickis is here to cooperate with you, captain, under your supervision and lieutenant goldblumes, if you catch my drift. I understand theyve decided to level the precinct house, put up another building. Yeah. I suppose a fire is the sort of nudge the bureaucracy needs to modernize, huh . [ scoffs ] what a guy. You know, its baffling, dont talk to me about letters of appeal, mister you i. R. S. People garnished my paycheck right out of left field. Now, my wife has to buy groceries i want to know who to talk to yes, i will wait. The coffee areas off limits, sid whats left of it. The guys name is freddie jerome. I got him positioned to come forward. All i gotta do is grease the wheel a little. What are you saying . Youre gonna bribe the guy to lie so buntz gets off . No i got him positioned to come forward to tell the truth. Whats the matter . You think lieutenant buntz did this . its hard to know what to think. Well, im telling you lieutenant buntz did not pinch a suitcase full of soda. I know. I tried to talk him into doing it. Whatever, sid. A sawbuck is all i got. Thats excellent. And, uh. 25. Is this to help lieutenant buntz . Yeah. I thought you and buntz didnt get along. I got, uh. 16 bucks. 16 . 16 bucks. Hey, norm. Norman, you promised. Out of my way. Norman lieutenant buntz, its my understanding that you are suspended and denied these premises. Leave me alone. Fay. Fay, listen, no. No, dont redeposit ill go by the bank tonight after i pick up frank jr. Ill give you a new check. All right . Im sorry. Well, of course itll never happen again. It never does. [ clears throat ] yeah. Thank you. Captain. Norman, im wondering what youre doing here. What good do you think you can do . Im going over and over it in my head, captain. Im not getting an honest call from this i. A. D. Guy. Cant we get something going up here, some sort of shadow investigation . That is so far out of policy. To investigate the evidence loss, the theft. We dont have venue. Captain, look. I explained to shipman the money in my apartment. He didnt question that. He he seemed to accept that. Then they suspend me. Obviously they feel they have more than theyre saying. If they have more, its crap, because i didnt do anything what do you think . Im playing it right down the middle. Well, thats because its what a captain does. And, uh. I, uh. I had a few scrapes, a few officer involveds. But, captain. One thing you ought to know about norm buntz, which is why i didnt do this, captain. Its why it dont even make sense. I dont need the money, captain. Guys who do this [sighs] theyre either jammed up or its what they like. They like having lots of money. What i like. Is people dont screw around with me. Thats a. And b i like being a cop. Ill have a look into this on my own. But its the best i can do. You go home. You go home and stay there. [ sighs ] look, how about i just stick around norman. Home. Home and stay there. Now. [ indistinct conversation ] [ dog barking ] we were on sector patrol, lieutenant. That bag lady held us. I guess she found the bodies while she was going through the garbage. These i. D. S on the bodies . Yes, sir. Bobby. Andy. Lieutenant, were not gonna get very much from that lady. Do you fellas want to do door to door in the surrounding buildings . I do not know why people trash the area surrounding their own domicile. Lab and forensics, please. You got it, lieutenant. They probably worked dekker and 103rd. You should probably start there. You want more time . Any thoughts . Yeah, just ones i dont wanna have. Hold that for me, would you, please . I think its like the other killings, but, uh. You know, different. I dont think its the same guy. Copycat . Mmhmm. Listen. Im the fella behind the eight ball on this one, lieutenant. I am the last guy to ask about this stuff, you know what i mean . Mmm. Thanks. Yeah. Why wouldnt i feel okay . Aside from the fact that i got a cashflow problem which would make old mother hubbard blush, and the fact that im in the middle of a divorce, my existence on this planet is just fine. Oh, man. Got a flat. [ sighs ] [ telephone rings ] yes . The initials on this motion hearing are those judge levines . I mean, levine is harold, right . That doesnt look like an h. Thats because its an n. Thats judge laurings initials. Judge nathan lauring b4. This cocaine hearing was supposed to be in b7. Thats judge levines court. Yeah, but levine gets backed up, and if its light in another part of the courthouse, they shoot the excess over there. And the Court Officers on this list are they levines or laurings . Maykowski, burton. Levines. B7. So this record doesnt actually tell us which Court Officers handled the evidence in this case. We make the records up when the hearingready case exits the hub courtroom. Thats 90 a day i have to know who laurings Court Officers are. [ sighing ] well, that would be no, no, i dont mean that. I mean in this case. Oh, man, captain. Youre talking an hour and a half to go through a mans career is at stake here. [ sighs ] . . If youre on medicare, remember, the open Enrollment Period is here.

Theres a guy named benedict at the heights who was trying to steal my snitch. Hoping to build a case. And cohoe . They were damn partners.

I know times a factor meaning your client knows we can get the same information from his running mate, detective benedict. In which case, hypothetically speaking, you could be giving away the head guy to bag a lonely accomplice. Obviously, your lowly accomplice here is the guy who broke into a suitcase for which another cop has been wrongly accused. Well, if thats what you want to settle for, but youll be missing 3 4 of the players no games. What does he got . I gotta walk. Off the force okay. But no charges. No way a free walk. A free walk is too cheap. You wouldnt say that if i told you theres also a highranking Police Official involved here, and we can give him to you. What official . Doing what . In the thick of it. Who . [ scoffs ] no. Lieutenant. We can add. With internaldivision responsibilities. Come on, cohoe. If you have something to tell us but i wanna make sure i walk. If this is as big as you say, and if it sticks, then you walk. Thats all we can offer. Well, as a matter of fact, thats all we wanted. Go ahead. Shipman. Lieutenant shipman . Lieutenant jim shipman.

Docket n695611 detective Michael Benedict charged with grand larceny, possession of controlled substance, this is after consultation . Correct. My client expects a bond to be posted. Long date. Next. Docket n695599 lieutenant norman buntz, felonious possession of a weapon. People are asking 100,000. Why . Why . Because daniels spoke to morrissey. On bail for buntz . No. But his nose is so far out of joint, frank, over this whole business. Ill run interference with the chief. Irwin, please. What the case is worth, buntz can make. Good thing private practice awaits. 10,000 . Your honor, i misread my papers. People ask 10,000, 10 cash alternative. Can defendant make that . Yeah. You wish to Say Something more, lieutenant .

I say no crawling on my belly through human waste. Thats why they made horse racing. Detective. I got a bunch of telephone messages for you. Everything okay at home . No, it isnt. Its my mother. Detective, nothing gives me greater pleasure than revising upwards my opinion of one of my men. Lieutenant, im very proud. Thank you. Book him. Be gentle. Hes somebodys son and brother, huh . Im from the fire marshalls office, chief. If i could have a couple minutes these reporters are on deadline. Boys, ill keep my statement simple. The soulsatisfying vocation it is. Greens responsible for last years string of pianowire murders . From my understanding, thats a rather complicated situation. I wouldnt want to prejudice any juries. But i will say that im breathing easier. What about reports that theyre tearing down hill street . New buildings gonna have a sauna and pingpong rooms and well, i havent actually seen any plans. Theyre tearing the old building down . Yeah. Jeez. This building came through the fire like a champ. Ly said the building is coming down . I thought lieutenant hunter said they were gonna level the whole thing. I guess hes just saying his own opinion. Gentlemen, ladies, lets understand each other. Given the budget crunch, if old is sound, then old is better. But i repeat its not my department. Didnt you come here to get the story on a historic and heroic arrest . Norman. Lieutenant. Thanks. Yes, ive been there non carborundum and all that. Howd you get by, howard . What, the humiliation of unjust demotion . I stood there in front of everybody in front of the judge, cops. As if i was a thief or a pimp. Well, youre neither. Youre a man. Naked, shivering, everything in the world taken from you, youd still be that. You believe that . Oh, yes. Ive had to. Norman. People like daniels dont give a rats dropping about people like you and i. Are we supposed to pin a medal on him . He, in fact, was a decorated cop. Am i right . And his jackets as thick as the yellow pages. People, without prejudging anybody, ill say this once the department is not afraid to sort out its bad apples. You wouldnt be going after buntz to broaden the focus away from your busted internal affairs man, would you . Absolutely not. Each will be dealt with. In buntzs case, he carried a weapon and assaulted a man while under suspension allegedly, of course. Please, people. On this day, when we should all be relieved and proud that a vicious killer has been brought to ground, lets not dwell on the departments thieving, bullying, greedy, lawless few. Youre saying im finished, arent you . Sir, if i have anything to say about it, you are. [ crowd murmuring ] pear. Sorry. Philip asleep . What is it . Its okay. I found the tax receipts right where they were supposed to be. [ voice breaking ] she saved everything. Wrapping paper. Rubber bands, she saved. Keys to nothing.

Dont you think this is something for me to do . After all this time, i could never bring myself to get near this stuff. [ breathes deeply ] i put in one box. Thats what well show to philip when hes old enough to know who his grandma was. The rest of this stuff. Its junk. It goes. What is it . Its a passbook. She opened up an account nine years ago for her grandchildren. Thats where all the money i gave her wound up. Thats philips now. She never said. And you know what . [ laughs ] she never declared the interest. I dont know what the hell im gonna tell them um, im officer hill. I was here before. Ii brought something for your. Little one. I got it at the fastfood. Lionel. Look what the nice man gave you a clown cup. Hey. Hes shy. Yeah. You are. I remember from a long time ago. Thats why i came back. Iive been trying to remember you, but i cant.

You know, the day we had, dinner like that was just the thing. That was some beautiful meal you ordered, sal. Its no big deal. A couple of basic rules to remember what color wine goes with what.

Like an archaeologist, im exploring the dawn of organized crime. What will i find . W what the hell . Its a corpse ladies and gentlemen, could this have happened . Did we discover some final ghoulish entry in the ledger of abe calabresis victims . [ grunts ] hey where am i . Its its a miracle ladies and gentlemen, im beginning to smell a calculated effort by an envious power structure to embarrass an investigative reporter. Who sent you, buddy . [ coughs ] nobody hey, you can go with envious power structure if you want to, mr. Dinapoli. Im sticking with its a miracle. Hi, sis. Ill apologize, you know . Believe me, sid, a sincere apology, theres no way daniels doesnt reconsider. Hmm. Kidding myself, arent i . Well. Chief of police you busted him in the chops. [ exhales deeply ] im finished. I dont know. Theyre not filing any criminal complaints. Am i right . Theres no charges for assault. No. Theyre making do with what they got against me carrying that piece. All right. So its a misdemeanor beef. Theres no way on the planet youre looking at any time. You dont get it, do you . What . I, uh. Cant be a cop. The rest dont make any difference. Hey, norm. You understand . What are you doing . Oh, take a walk. [ sighs ] think about what im gonna do with the rest of my life. Company . No, sid. Okay. But im gonna stay here till you get back, though. Thanks. E. One of them orangeflavored big pops . Yeah, if i remember. Only if its on the way. [ rings ] hello. Okay. I get the idea. Thanks for trying. Good night. Buntz is out. Couldnt keep the punch out of the papers, hmm . Nope. Give it a month or two to settle down. Its not the kind of thing daniels forgets. Youre feeling guilty as hell.
