00:15How long could he last in here? About eight to ten hours. Huh.
00:19This blowfish can inflate five times his present size, huh?
00:23You can threaten an enemy, impress a female blowfish.
00:30What's up?
00:32Black guy on the phone over there. Trouble?
00:35No, not trouble. I know.
00:40Best performing I ever had. You don't like this guy, Andy.
00:43Yeah, I like everybody.

01:03He just gets out of Attica.
01:05Calm, stop.
01:06You don't write. You don't call.
01:08I come out on the street with my partner here and you setting up for business.
01:11Bobby, man, I didn't even know you was downtown.
01:14Oh, you checking out this Lexus, huh?
01:16What? What Lexus?
01:17Oh, man, no. I'm just checking out the atmosphere.
01:20You looking to take off Columbia's now, Fernand?
01:22Because that's living pretty large.
01:27Damn it.
01:28Robert, man, you pop up like this, you ruin everything.
01:30Man, a couple more minutes, I'm done, I'm gone.
01:32Oh, well, you know how that goes, Fernand.

03:22Ray Collins.
03:23I'm with the Heider Task Force.
03:25Which is Detective Sipaworth's desk?
03:28Over there.
03:31I'll find all that information.
03:34How's it going, huh?
03:35Good.
03:36Who are you guys all with?
03:37Son, if I tell you that, I've got to kill you.
03:50Yeah?
03:51Sergeant Ray Collins, Lieutenant.
03:54NYPD detailed to the Heider Task Force.
03:56Yeah, I got the memo you'd be setting up here on the barge case.
03:59Two drug crews shooting out.
04:01The only casualty is a ten-year-old on her way to school.
04:06We got two empty rooms you can use in any crime.
04:09That's up on the third floor.
04:10Great.
04:11I know I owe you a detective.
04:13You need any logistical help?
04:15You gotta be kidding.
04:17We're federally funded, Lieutenant.
04:19We got new cars.
04:20We got new radios.
04:22Unlimited overtime.
04:23Yeah, state police are working with you, too.
04:25Everyone but the cavalry.
04:27We can't spend it fast enough.
04:30So how are you doing on the case?
04:33We're looking at some people.
04:35We're working back on the cruise.
04:36Thanks for the space.
04:38Yeah.
04:38Hey, Diane.
04:47Morning, boss.
04:48Yeah, morning.
04:49We got a high-intensity drug area unit working out of the squad.
04:53They're on the Barnes homicide?
04:54Yeah, it's a different kind of investigative work.
04:57They got federal money.
04:59They can go a lot farther into a case.
05:01I thought it might be a good experience for you working with them.
05:03Sure, I'd like that.
05:04The guy running the details from our job, Sergeant Collins,
05:08is going out and introduce yourself.
05:11I appreciate the look, Lieutenant.
05:13Yeah.
05:18Excuse me, young lady.
05:22You know how to spell fornicate?
05:24Never mind.
05:25Never mind.
05:26I'll just shorten it.
05:31You tread lightly through your thinking for me,
05:33turning this Ferdinand loose.
05:36Annie, we bring him in.
05:37I got to toss him.
05:37I know I'm going to find a gun.
05:39Parrish, they thought you'd take a weapon off a stick-up guy.
05:43He comes in on his own.
05:44He's off this piece.
05:45He's not looking at a collar.
05:47He's going to have a whole lot better attitude.
05:49You see those tracks in his hands?
05:51Yeah, he's been shooting up his whole life.
05:52Coke and dope both.
05:53So we know he's reliable.
05:55He'll show, Andy.
05:56And he'll make cases for us.
05:58I'll put the bag in the fresh water tank till I go home.
06:02This little guy inflates himself.
06:04Those goldfish will have a stroke.
06:06Yeah, huh?
06:07Yeah.
06:07Oh, man.
06:12Who's that?
06:13Some loudmouth crap artist.
06:16Hey, Andy.
06:17I'm just writing you an obscene note.
06:20How's it going there, Collins?
06:21So, this is Bobby Simone.
06:22Sergeant Ray Collins.
06:23Good to meet you, Sergeant.
06:25Dan Russell.
06:26Hi.
06:27Hi.
06:27How's it going, Diane?
06:28I just got some good news.
06:29My boss wants me to work with you guys on your task force.
06:32I knew I liked that guy.
06:36So, Andy, still closing down the bars?
06:41No, not too much.
06:43I've only met a few people in my life who drink me under a table,
06:46and this guy is one of us.
06:50Come on.
06:51So, this is where you landed, huh?
06:56Yeah.
06:56It's not bad.
06:57It's not bad for the precinct work.
06:59In.
07:02Yeah, look, uh, I'd stick around for more career evaluation.
07:06We've got to talk to this guy.
07:07Go on.
07:08Get out of here.
07:09Nice to meet you.
07:09Same here.
07:10Come on.
07:10Let's take the long way.
07:11We'll go through.
07:13Hey, Dan.
07:14Body in the basement on Hester Street.
07:16You want to work with us?
07:17The boss just assigned me to the task force on the Barnes homicide.
07:20Hey, good for you.
07:21That's great.
07:22James Martinez, Greg Medavoy, Sergeant Ray Collins.
07:25How's it going?
07:25Yeah, I noticed you got a Ranger jacket on here.
07:30Uh-uh, Miss Armandondo.
07:31Big Ranger fan.
07:32Yes, sir.
07:33I won this on a bet.
07:35So you got a stinker down on Hester Street.
07:38Yeah, yeah.
07:39We don't know how long it's been there.
07:40Yeah, you know, I used to own a couple of them loft buildings over there by Ludlow.
07:45Zoning regs wouldn't let me develop them the way I wanted to, so I said, to hell with this.
07:49I sold the two of them off, cleared myself A.D. large.
07:53Is that right, huh?
07:53Yeah.
07:54Anyways, we better get over there.
07:57So, Diane, think you could point me in the general direction of the anti-crime section?
08:04It's right upstairs.
08:05Okay, guys, let's go moving out.
08:08When did you own those lofts?
08:09Well, I sold them about five years ago.
08:12Made myself somewhere between $80,000 and $90,000.
08:15Watching you drink coffee makes my teeth hurt.
08:34I'm a fiend for sweets.
08:36Dope, cocaine, sweets.
08:40All I want is everything.
08:41Say, Ferdinand, what ever happened to that tall guy you used to hunt with?
08:48Antoine.
08:50He dead.
08:51Got the virus.
08:53Went real quick.
08:55A lot of guys got that bug now, man.
08:57Yeah.
08:59A lot of guys do.
09:06So, what do you got for show and tell?
09:09Rent's due, huh?
09:10First of the month, Holmes.
09:11How about I put two bodies on Marcus Edmonds?
09:17I mean, he dead now, so he passed mine now.
09:20You're going to give us paper clearances off Marcus Edmonds?
09:24Guy's been dead for four months.
09:26Every snitch in the city is still trying to put murders on him.
09:29Marcus liked this shot about 20 people before he caught a bullet his own self.
09:33I'm going to tell you about double LaGuardia Holmes, them bodies in the stairwell.
09:43Edmonds did those shootings.
09:44You already did.
09:45I got names, numbers.
09:48I know who was with him.
09:49I know the whole story behind that foolishness.
09:52All right, all right.
09:55We'll get back to that.
09:58How about something fresh?
09:59How about that bodega last month, Avenue B, where the counterman got shot?
10:07How about it?
10:08Fresh enough.
10:09Let's hear it.
10:11Shooter was Linwood Truett.
10:13Used to be with the Diamond and the Raw crew.
10:16They cut him loose when he kept messing up the count.
10:18The second man in that job was Andre Boyd.
10:21He been on Riker's last couple of weeks.
10:23Need a witness?
10:24She got Marlott of Weeks.
10:26She Boyd's girlfriend.
10:27She drove him there.
10:28Where's this Marlott of the alphabet?
10:31Alphabet City somewhere else.
10:33You'll find her through social services.
10:35She get a check.
10:38Can I get back to my own little drama now?
10:40Where are those Colombians you were looking to take off?
10:44Man, it's my business.
10:50Your business?

11:08Ferdinand, while you do business with your 38.

11:14My mistake.
11:16Niggas see that big gun come out, they don't argue.

12:40they do that for the first two years for purity this is where he must have made his offerings
12:47no pockets on his outfit i don't see no id look at this goats roosters
12:55a santero sacrifices to the ancient gods and catholic saints uses them for white magic
13:03no black magic though that's palomayombe you know all about this stuff yeah tio pepe my uncle was a
13:11santero on sundays you couldn't go into my cousin's basement without stepping on a rooster's head
13:17people from the neighborhood would come to my tio pepe to put a trabajito on their enemies
13:22what's a trabajito it's like a little work like a hex well how are we going to id this guy
13:30i'll call father ramos over at san luis's you call a catholic priest about a witch doctor
13:36they're not witch doctors greg spanish neighborhoods catholic priests tend to deal with these guys a
13:42little yeah live and learn life's not all ozzy and harriet yeah this is definitely not the nelson
13:53family rec room
13:55morris and regina caught that bodega homicide you see i told you about they're coming in on a
14:05four to one we can check out this woman in my letter who supposedly drove the getaway car turn it
14:10over to morris see when it gets in information the cia gave up on those laguardia homes homicides
14:16checks out putting those on marcus edmunds guys information is straight lewd always has been
14:21so you're gonna need anything from the snitch fund no uh-uh is he up on a charge he just got out
14:28did a three-year bid so what do you got over him he's probably doing some things that we don't want
14:35to know about give me a hint the bit was for sticking up drug dealers he's been doing his act
14:44longer than i've been on the job lou and i have never once heard of a civilian getting hurt i don't
14:49want this guy thinking he's got a free ride in my precinct he knows it's not like that meanwhile we
14:55get these clearances clearances are great
14:59you figure this ferdinand we're having the virus like it's still front at once yeah that's how i
15:13read it when you saw this guy was looking to take off a columbian you said he was stepping up
15:19he used to hit independence a lot of people have figured taking off a cali bag man an assisted
15:25form of suicide you think because maybe he's got the virus he's uh taking more chances he wants
15:31to risk getting his head blown off that's his problem but he may not be as careful with civilians
15:36as he used to be either i don't really figure him like that any but uh it may be worth a conversation

20:17palo mayombe huh
20:19what do you know about palo mayombe
20:22no i i i just heard the term
20:25could we take a look around at some of miguel's things
20:29oh
20:35oh
20:39Oh, Caldero, the ceremonial pot where the magic happens, and the prenders, the deer
21:05horns to bring the saints. Look at this. Come here. What? Rudolph Haysbert, New York Division
21:17of Parole and Probation, Manhattan office. Business card? With a date and time written
21:23on the back. See, they put something in the Caldero, which belongs to the person they're
21:28going to put the spell on. Yeah. Maybe Miguel became a Santero after a little stay in a
21:35joint. Unless he's hexing his Haysbert for a client. Mrs. Marquez, by any chance, was
21:46Miguel on parole? Why do you ask me such a question? I told you Miguel was a healer. Had he ever
21:53been arrested? Did he have an appointment with a parole officer? Un hombre de Dios, a man
22:00of God. But she's saying no, Greg. Okay. Yeah. I'm fine. I'm just inquiring.
22:21I gotta reach out to the CIA tomorrow. Make sure he's not in some kind of kamikaze.
22:26Why don't you have a glass of wine? No, I'm good. Trying to get you loose. Loose?
22:40You look like someone who needs to be taken advantage of. You're just pretty happy about
22:46this new sign, man. Glad Fancy likes my work. I don't know how much I'm going to learn from
22:53this Collins. Andy sure doesn't like him. He's kind of a blowhard. He doesn't like to get off
22:59his ass too much either. If we don't get something off these warrants tomorrow, he wants to go to
23:03wiretaps. Wiretaps? I don't figure that's how you're going to collar up on a street crew.
23:13You're being so good. You mean with you busting into a room full of bad guys tomorrow, backed by a boss who
23:20doesn't want to be in the building in the first place? I mean, not letting myself get all crazy behind
23:24that?
23:26Pretty much sums it up. Yeah, well, it's your world, Diane. I'm just trying to keep my
23:32little place in it nice and tidy.
23:37See, that gets me hot. You're being so evolved.
23:42You know, I guess I'm out of luck as he comes to waiting. Don't give up so easy.
23:52Hey, evening. Hi. Thanks. Can I tell you the specials?
23:57Um, yeah. For appetizers, we have a palanta prepared with a special, a shiitake mushroom sauce.
24:04Am I going too fast? Too fast?
24:11No, you're good. Good.
24:14A palanta prepared with a special, a shiitake mushroom sauce, main course, osso bucco.
24:21Mmm.
24:34See you next time!
24:49See you next time!
24:58I see your hands.
25:25All clear.
25:26Let's toss this place.
25:29Yeah, go ahead.
25:30Toss everything.
25:34Take a look in there.
25:36Check those cabins.
25:38Yeah.
25:46Yeah, I understand that the clinic's roster is confidential.
25:51No, look.
25:51If we didn't believe that people could be in danger from this guy, we wouldn't be asking.
25:55Okay.
25:56Linwood Truitt.
25:58Right.
26:00Well, we wouldn't be asking for confidential information except this guy's wandering in a murder investigation.
26:06We picked Truant's girlfriend up last night.
26:08A Marletta Weeks study registered into a methadone program.
26:14Okay, thank you.
26:14Without breaching confidentiality, can you just indicate if I came looking for him at your three o'clock pickup, would that be a waste of time?
26:23Uh-huh.
26:24How'd you do?
26:26Looked to me like we zeroed out, but I'm just an ignorant trooper.
26:32Knocked the hell out of some doors, though.
26:34I knew this is going to have to go to a wiretap.
26:37We are going to be working this in the summer.
26:40Now, go look for a fan.
26:43Well, better you can kiss my ass.
26:45Why, the criminal justice system is arresting old machine, and overtime pay is a necessary lubricant.
26:55Am I right, Andy?
26:57Detective Sipowitz, 15 Squad.
27:00We're looking at someone for a homicide.
27:01We think might give medicine at your clinic.
27:05And Linwood Truitt.
27:06Three up, three down, huh?
27:14Yeah, we were an easy inning.
27:17On one of the places, he wasn't all wrong.
27:19It's supposed to be this Marvin Freeland stash.
27:21The people we want were there.
27:22They just weren't holding.
27:24So you just keep looking.
27:27You're going to get involved on me again?
27:30Because I'll jump you right here.
27:31Uh, Detective, um, that, uh, black fella with the sweatshirt and sunglasses.
27:39Okay, Donna.
27:40Thanks.
27:54Right here.
27:59Don't you see I?
28:01My partner's.
28:03What's his name?
28:06Goose Tatum.
28:09Can't blame a guy for trying.
28:19Robert, you starting to remind me of my cousin Donnell.
28:23Yeah, how's that?
28:25Donnell, he a country boy.
28:27He used to come up from Carolina and spend a summer in a big city.
28:30First, it's good to see him, you know?
28:33By July, he got to acting all crazy, jumping bad.
28:36He'd be like, yo, cuz, you don't want a welcome now.
28:39I got to ask you something for a nap.
28:51You got that virus?
28:54I got caught up in that?
28:55Yeah.
28:56Sorry.
28:57I guess they ain't like I don't deserve it.
28:57All these years of running and gunning.
28:58I finally got tested at the Comstock.
28:59Felt like I knew the answer before they told me.
29:00This take-off with the Colombians that you're working on, you running a little wild with that?
29:05What you mean?
29:06You know what I mean?
29:06You know what I mean.
29:07Are you getting reckless?
29:12You think I'm looking to go out in the blaze of glory?
29:14No, man.
29:15I don't want to get thin in the home.
29:16But that happens.
29:17I carry it.
29:18You're a soldier, huh?
29:19I'm Viking Holmes.
29:21You know about this drug crew that stashes over on Rivington?
29:22The main name I got is some gangster named Freeland.
29:23You know about this drug crew that stashes over on Rivington?
29:24The main name I got is some gangster named Freeland.
29:26This more rent?
29:27The favor?
29:28I don't want to get thin in the home.
29:29I don't want to get thin in the home.
29:30No, man.
29:31I don't want to get thin in the home.
29:32But that happens.
29:33I carry it.
29:34You're a soldier, huh?
29:35I'm Viking Holmes.
29:36You know about this drug crew that stashes over on Rivington?
29:41The main name I got is some gangster named Freeland.
29:52This more rent?
29:53The favor?
30:03Marvin Freeland.
30:06He's only half gangster.
30:08The other half all punk.
30:10I hit his stash twice this year.
30:13We think Freeland's crew is part of the crossfire that killed this 10-year-old girl on Canal
30:18Street last month.
30:19Yeah.
30:20I see it on the news.
30:23Back in the day, player walk up, put the gun back to guy's head, make sure he hit the
30:30right nigga.
30:31Now you got fools, 15-2, clips, semi-auto spraying a whole damn street.
30:37You think you might talk to someone about this Freeland?
30:41Someone?
30:42Not the cop.
30:43Just give him some background on the crew.
30:45Robert, don't make me out a bitch.
30:47Ferdinand.
30:48I would relay it, but you're not registered as a CI.
30:51And this guy, he looks for reasons not to do his job.
30:54Dead girl his case?
30:57Yeah, okay.
30:58Appreciate it, Freeland.
30:59Peace guy gonna come.
31:00You alright with that?
31:01Yeah.
31:02Hey, Robert, do I look like that Unabomber?
31:03I'm Parole Officer Rudy Haysbert.
31:04Oh, I'm Greg Metavoy.
31:05Come on in.
31:06I'm Parole Officer Rudy Haysbert.
31:07Oh, I'm Greg Metavoy.
31:08Come on in.
31:09I appreciate you coming down.
31:11I assume one of my cases, when he does he do the correctá
31:14Whatever.
31:15Around this meeting.
31:16You alright with that?
31:17Yeah.
31:19Yeah.
31:20Your request, your brother must go on and get sick.
31:22Oh, should I get sick?
31:24Yeah.
31:25Hey, Robert, do I look like that?
31:31Oh, I'm Greg Metterboy.
31:34Come on in.
31:35Appreciate you coming down.
31:37I assume one of my cases went south.
31:40We'll talk over here.
31:42Oh, my partner, James Martinez.
31:45How's it going?
31:45This is parole officer Haysburg.
31:47You know, if you'd have told me which one of my parolees you were interested in,
31:51we could have done this whole thing on a phone.
31:53Well, actually, Mr. Haysburg,
31:56your card was found in the possessions of a homicide victim.
32:00I'm a Miguel Marquez.
32:03Is he a client?
32:08You don't know offhand?
32:09Offhand?
32:11I got a caseload of about 450 people.
32:15Hey, Marquez, Marquez.
32:19I got a marguerite.
32:22No Miguel.
32:24I have matches anyway.
32:26We got no arrest record for the guy.
32:27On the back of your card, it says, uh, March 14th, 9 a.m.
32:35March 14th.
32:43March 14th.
32:45Yeah, 9 o'clock slot, Gabriel Mota.
32:50He didn't post.
32:51And?
32:52And I violated him.
32:53It was his fourth no-show.
32:55If you find this guy, let me know.
32:57I'll flag a detainer.
32:59You got an address?
33:01If I can find a file,
33:04I got an address.
33:05Hey, Ray.
33:14Hey, Andy.
33:16In the market, Andy?
33:18No.
33:19I am ashamed to tell you
33:21how much money I've made the last two years.
33:24Congratulations.
33:25We got a guy here with background
33:26about the crew you're looking at.
33:28Oh, yeah?
33:30Is he registered?
33:31No, he's not registered,
33:32but he's robbed your people twice.
33:34We got our own informants.
33:36We don't need to be dragging
33:37everybody in the precinct into this case.
33:40This guy's got information.
33:42You mean your guy, huh?
33:45This is about turf, Ray?
33:46You think that we want a piece of your case?
33:49Anything your guy can tell me,
33:51I already know.
33:53So you're going after Ronnie Moe.
33:55Who?
33:59Ronnie Moe.
34:01You mean Ronald Carter?
34:03Yes, he is one of our people.
34:05You put a charge on Ronnie Moe,
34:07you want a hell of a police.
34:09I do my job.
34:10Because he'd been dead about six months.
34:13Got killed in the Bronx some ways.
34:16That's crap.
34:17Look, man,
34:18you're going after Marvin Freeland's crew.
34:19I'm here to tell you,
34:20Black Larry's a weak link.
34:23He runs Freeland's Stash House.
34:25And he's backing up
34:26ten-year federal parole.
34:29You put a charge on Larry,
34:31he'd be steady talking.
34:34We hit Larry's place this morning.
34:36It came up empty.
34:37Every time I hit Larry,
34:39I got plenty of dope and cane.
34:41The front part of his door hollered out.
34:48Are they still doing repairs
34:50on that last address?
34:51Yeah.
34:52Well, if he is stashed there,
34:56he couldn't have moved it.
35:00We're going to go back here.
35:02See how good your information is.
35:06I'll put it together.
35:08Better not be wasting my time.
35:10Yeah, you'd hate for that to happen,
35:11huh, Saj?
35:12Screw you, Saj.
35:14Sarge, all for you.
35:18Now, if you're right, Ferdinand,
35:19you're going to make my weak.
35:21Yeah, it'll be right.
35:22People tell you straight
35:23they got that big 44 in their mouth.
35:26This be it for a while, okay?
35:29Else you'll be heating me up.
35:32Take care of yourself out of the street.
35:33It'll be all right.
35:35Still got some veins up.
35:37Still like my sweets.
35:38We're about done when you radioed,
36:01installing a half hour.
36:03It's at the original door.
36:04Yeah.
36:10Get this over here.
36:11What's going on?
36:12Shut up.
36:13You know anything about this, Larry?
36:40Mm-mm.
36:41Mm-mm.
36:41Let's take a ride anyway.
36:45Come on.
36:49Let me see those hands again.
37:06I recognize this one.
37:07His name is Gabriel Mota.
37:09He came last month to my son, Miguel,
37:14for un trabajo.
37:15And what do they want the trabajo to do for him?
37:18Make him invisible.
37:21Invisible?
37:22Si.
37:23He wanted not to be seen.
37:25For what reason?
37:26For the police not to be able to see him.
37:30And your son made un trabajo for Gabriel Mota?
37:35Yes.
37:36Yes.
37:36He made this man invisible, see?
37:39Then he came back very angry because the police had stopped him in his car because his license plates were, how do you say, were exploded.
37:52They expired.
37:53Yes.
37:54Yes.
37:54He said, how can the police see him?
37:57And what did your son say?
37:59Well, he explained that un trabajo doesn't last forever.
38:03You have to keep coming back.
38:05And how did this man take the explanation?
38:09He doesn't stop being angry.
38:11So my son said, then go find yourself somebody else.
38:16Mrs. Marquez, the way you looked at these photographs, could you do the same with a group of men?
38:22Try to ID the Gabriel Mota?
38:25Yes.
38:26All right.
38:27Uh, see, we'll bring him into the station house, assuming he's visible to the officers that go looking for him.
38:37This man's federal, Larry.
38:39I'm NYPD.
38:41Reason I'm talking to you is because even with all that weight we found in your door, you could still keep this in state court.
38:48That means no mandatory minimums.
38:50State court's Rockefeller law.
38:52And last month, a 10-year-old girl named Janelle Barnes got caught in a crossfire on Canal Street.
38:59Gave up the right answers on her homicide.
39:02Maybe it's not clear the stash was in your possession.
39:05Then Rockefeller wouldn't apply.
39:08I need to hear a DA say it.
39:11You got the right answers on the Barnes homicide?
39:14Yeah, I can give you those.
39:19I'll get a DA.
39:22If somebody robs you a few times, Larry, you might want to figure a new place to keep your drugs.
39:31It's a gum bag.
39:42Why did you do that, Collins?
39:43I'll find the DA.
39:45Do what? I don't know what you're talking about.
39:47Do what? You just gave my CI to that asshole in that room in there.
39:50Who do you need?
39:53Well, from the 27, Detective Martinez and Medivoy wanted this guy picked up for an interview.
39:58Yeah, interview three down the hall there.
40:00Martinez and Medivoy and his squad.
40:02Thanks.
40:03I'll give him.
40:05Let me hit this guy.
40:07Ray, you told this black Larry it was off him getting robbed.
40:12We knew where to look for his stash.
40:15She's downstairs taking a statement.
40:17She'll be up in about 20 minutes.
40:18So, Simone's guy does us a favor, huh?
40:22He goes out of his way.
40:23Now, the thanks he's gonna get.
40:26The first time this Larry gets a message to a visitor, Simone's guy is gonna get whacked.
40:32You see my problem yet, Ray?
40:34You understand what my problem is now?
40:37Why, you guys get sick with your CI's.
40:40This is an unregistered informant.
40:43A stick-up man.
40:45He puts guns to people's head.
40:47Excuse me.
40:48But I'm not worried whether this guy makes it to his retirement party.
40:52Let me know when the DA gets here.
40:54You and your partner ought to hang him around in case this D.O.A.'s mother don't pick this Gabriel motor wrap.
41:22No problem.
41:23Hey, uh, did this guy indicate to you at all that he thought he was invisible?
41:29Invisible?
41:30Yeah.
41:30No, he just kept asking who we were real cops.
41:33Ah, you know why he was asking that?
41:35The guy bought a spell.
41:37Supposed to make him invisible to the police.
41:40No kidding?
41:41Yeah, homicide would like the guy for.
41:43D.O.A.'s a Santeria priest.
41:45This motor guy goes to him to cast a spell on his parole officer to make motor invisible to the cops.
41:51Yeah, so when he don't get satisfaction, he kills the Santeria priest.
41:56Goes looking for another Santeria guy, casts a better invisibility spell.
42:01What room's the guy in?
42:03One of your other detectives told my partner to put him in three.
42:06I'm gonna move this motor guy into the poker room before I bring down Mrs. Marquez.
42:11Yeah, good.
42:12So I guess the guy must figure he got beat twice on his spells, huh?
42:16Yeah, second priest didn't do any better for him than the D.O.A.
42:19Yeah, you see, James, uh, maybe that's still open to debate.
42:23I got an idea.
42:30Hey.
42:33Where'd this Gabriel Motor guy go?
42:36Well, I thought you said they had him in interview three.
42:38They said they left him in here.
42:40Those guys that brought him in here, were they actual cops or were they security guards?
42:44They were security guards.
42:45For God's sakes, Greg, what difference does it make whether they were cops or not?
42:49Yeah, yeah, we got bigger problems now.
42:54There's a suspect missing.
43:01Where could he have gone?
43:03You didn't forget to lock the door, did you, Greg?
43:05Oh, yeah, yeah, blame me.
43:08Well, I guess we gotta tell the lieutenant.
43:11Man, this is one conversation I'm not looking forward to.
43:14I mean, uh, what are we gonna say to him?
43:17You know, that, uh, that guy went invisible on us?
43:20I don't know.
43:27Hey, Gabriel.
43:30Uh, when you go down the hallway, don't forget to turn left.
43:33Yeah, and go, go on the door on the end there.
43:36That's where we run our lineups.
43:38You see me?
43:39Well, just the last little why you started to materialize.
43:43So, no, uh, lesson tonight, Brandy J?
44:01He's got an orientation like Trudy's job.
44:06Gonna give the heads up to Ferdinand?
44:08I'm not putting this guy up for hope.
44:11There was nothing in this family.
44:13Uh-huh.
44:14He was looking to help.
44:16That's all he was looking to do for it, man.
44:18And Collins winds up jamming him up.
44:20The world's on its ass when the stick-up guy's more stand-up
44:23than somebody you're working with.
44:29That idiot.
44:30How'd you do?
44:43Ah, this Larry gave up a shooter.
44:46From the other crew?
44:47Uh-huh.
44:48He said he was an eyewitness, and he agreed to testify.
44:51That's great.
44:52Downside, my boss just walked in to celebrate.
44:55Yes!
44:57It looks like he had a head start.
44:58Right-hand desk drawer.
45:00That's where I keep his bottle.
45:02Always my personal favorite.
45:04I don't know how guys drink without a purse.
45:07Andy, were you and he in uniform together?
45:10You were in the bag with Collins?
45:12No.
45:13He said you went through doors together,
45:16and you were in service together in Vietnam.
45:19I knew you were never detectives together.
45:24Excuse me.
45:24Excuse me.
45:28Oh, boy.
45:29Oh, my God.
45:30Hey, Ray.
45:32Hey, Andy.
45:33You ready to fall off the wagon, huh?
45:35Ray, could I, uh...
45:36Could I, uh, talk to you for a minute privately over here?
45:40For now?
45:41Yeah.
45:42No, just for a minute over here.
45:43Okay.
45:43What were you in, Nam?
45:541969.
45:55Oh, yeah?
45:56What unit?
45:58Americal 198.
46:00Yeah.
46:01What base camp?
46:03Some gook village outside of Saigon.
46:06What, you remember all the names?
46:08Yeah.
46:09Every one of them.
46:09Here's the deal, Ray.
46:14I don't know what the hell you get out of it,
46:17but as far as I'm concerned,
46:18you can tell people that you and me
46:20went through doors together, huh?
46:22You can tell them you own the World Trade Center
46:25and you are married to Marilyn Monroe.
46:27You feel free to tell people
46:29that you put every gangster since Legs Diamond behind bars.
46:34But, Ray, you cannot lie about what happened in Vietnam
46:40because that is an insult to people who were there
46:44and who did what had to be done.
46:46I was in Vietnam, 1969.
46:50In what capacity, Ray?
46:53A maintenance unit.
46:55Then you say that.
46:59You tell the truth or you don't say anything at all.
47:03Do you hear me, Ray, huh?
47:05Or do we need to take this outside?
47:06See, that has always been your problem, Sipowitz.
47:09That's why you're still doing precinct work.
47:12You never learn to lighten up.
47:13You say anything you want, right?
47:15But not about Nam.
47:17Right.
47:18Not about Nam.
47:23Eddie.
47:24Eddie.
47:25You just have beef.
47:31Yeah.

48:02They don't want to make one.
48:11Get this.
48:13They say they don't know each other.
48:15This one says he fell.
48:17That one said he got hit, but he's not sure by who.
48:19They don't want the police.
48:21They don't want the police.
48:21They don't know each other.
48:24They are.
48:26They don't know each other.

53:35Marvin Freeland had him cabbed, Collins, after he gave him up.
53:39You and me have had this little chat.
53:42I have got no tears for you, C.I.
53:46I will take a piss in his honor, though, if you will vacate the line of fire.
53:56He was a better guy than you ever thought about being.
54:03And I am on a job with you.
54:06We'll see for how long.
54:08Well, you go ahead.
54:09You bring up to office, Collins.
54:11You go ahead.
