00:02:21Hey, I'm sorry, baby.
00:02:51Why does it have to be every single night? You never want to be with me.
00:02:55Duty calls, Joanne.
00:02:58You promised you'd stay home tonight.
00:03:01Hey, what would you rather have? Me loafing around here?
00:03:05Or maybe it'd be nice to have some money in the bank, okay?
00:03:08You said you wouldn't work nights anymore.
00:03:11Look, I got a shitload of pressure on me right now, okay?
00:03:15Payments just went up on the ex-wife's house. This place is killing me. Two cars.
00:03:20Don't start with me, okay?
00:03:23Why not? You never finish with me.
00:03:33Hey, why don't you take a tranquilizer, okay? Go to sleep. I'll be back in a few hours.
00:03:39David, I don't want to go to sleep. I want to feel you touch me.
00:03:44I want to feel like you still love me.
00:03:48That's all I ever wanted.
00:03:50I don't care about the cars, the money.
00:03:53I just want you to be with me.
00:03:56I need you.
00:03:57You...
00:04:02I know you do.
00:04:03And I'll be back in a few hours, okay?
00:04:11After I married David, I didn't really have any friends to turn to.
00:04:16I had always been sort of a loner.
00:04:20My parents...
00:04:23Forget it.
00:04:24I just had David.
00:04:26What about your parents?
00:04:28What about them?
00:04:29Did you talk to them?
00:04:31My parents just couldn't be bothered.
00:04:34Nothing I did ever pleased them.
00:04:37They thought I was a big mistake.
00:04:40I just wanted them to love me.
00:04:43Did you begin to feel that nobody loved you, including David?
00:04:47David thought he had to give me things.
00:04:50That's how he showed his love.
00:04:51He had to provide.
00:04:53And when money started getting tight, he got frustrated and withdrawn.
00:04:58Everything was about the money.
00:05:01He just let it tear him up inside.
00:05:04Yeah, six grand.
00:05:06I tried to buy a plunker and I'm looking at a shiny new convertible.
00:05:12What do you need a new car for, man?
00:05:15You're married. It's over for you.
00:05:17Fuck you, Rod.
00:05:21Look.
00:05:23I didn't need a new car to get this.
00:05:24What is it?
00:05:26Remember the blonde back at La Brea?
00:05:28No.
00:05:30It's her number. She gave it to me.
00:05:31My husband was in the next room, for Christ's sakes.
00:05:34I know, man.
00:05:35You kept him busy for me. I appreciate it.
00:05:38Gee.
00:05:39What is it with you?
00:05:40You've been my partner less than a month and this is, what, the third time?
00:05:44Your regular horndog tennis.
00:05:46That's what I like about domestic disturbances.
00:05:49You got all these sex-hungry housewives out there.
00:05:52You gotta try it sometime, man.
00:05:55Oh, thank you.
00:05:57You got all I can handle back now.
00:05:58You got a bad attitude.
00:06:01That's why we gotta take advantage of this shit, you know?
00:06:07Something I'm gonna write a book about it.
00:06:09Yeah, we'll write the TV. That's where the bugs are.
00:06:12See, there you go, man. You got money on the brain.
00:06:15You gotta lighten up.
00:06:17Let's go back to the boulevard.
00:06:18I got something this year's speed.
00:06:24What do we got here? A titty bar?
00:06:25Sure got it.
00:06:27Maybe I'll get lucky and run into Lamberti and Hernandez.
00:06:30Friends of yours?
00:06:31Hardly.
00:06:33These guys are dirtbags, all right?
00:06:35They call themselves talent agents for exotic dances.
00:06:38They deal in flesh and drugs.
00:06:40Recruit young girls, get them high, abuse them, turn them into hookers.
00:06:43Ecstasy is that drug of choice.
00:06:46Biggest deal is around.
00:06:48I have a dream.
00:06:49Just to bust these guys big time.
00:06:50Gigantic policy.
00:06:56Might have a bust out with you.
00:06:58No.
00:06:59Yeah, they're cold.
00:07:01At your service.
00:07:02Officer Tennyson, my new partner.
00:07:04William Lamberti.
00:07:06I always like to see cops here.
00:07:08Can I offer you a drink?
00:07:13Nah.
00:07:14I'll just take the liquor license.
00:07:16Bullshit.
00:07:18You guys have been coming here for years and you're usually the last people to leave at night.
00:07:22Strictly in the line of duty, sir.
00:07:24Strictly in the line of the fact that I got the best tits in town.
00:07:28Hey, kid.
00:07:31You got an honest face.
00:07:36I'll let his apocalypse book to myself.
00:07:41Yeah, well,
00:07:42You're a nice guy.
00:07:45Taking care of her.
00:07:46Bringing her a break.
00:07:48If I can afford to.
00:07:51Afford to the...
00:07:55Is that the license, sir?
00:07:59Well, you know, I don't really own this place.
00:08:01This is the owner here.
00:08:03Who wants to see your liquor license.
00:08:05Come to one.
00:08:10Yeah, so why don't you take that over to your friend, Fletcher Ross.
00:08:14You do know that asshole, don't you?
00:08:16Mr. Ross has the city's best interest at heart.
00:08:20He does what you mean.
00:08:22Yeah, well, he'd be right here, right now,
00:08:26sticking a tent spot off that chick's ass before the run from there.
00:08:28He sent you, too.
00:08:30I haven't seen him in months.
00:08:32Well, when you do see him,
00:08:35why don't you tell him if he touches this place?
00:08:38I will get every hooker, every stripper, every pimp,
00:08:43the register to vote.
00:08:45I'll take him out of those fucking hands.
00:08:47Shouldn't be too hard, Bill.
00:08:49Every one of them's on your payroll.
00:08:51We know.
00:08:52Get him all.
00:08:53Bill, every one of them's on your payroll.
00:08:56We know it.
00:09:13Get them all.
00:09:19Yeah.
00:09:21How's business?
00:09:22Number one is still growing.
00:09:24You said for the cops?
00:09:26No.
00:09:27No, they came there to see the girls.
00:09:29No, our reputation.
00:09:31Listen, I want this place drug-free.
00:09:35Don't worry.
00:09:37Everybody here knows I'm going to hold a lot tougher than a fucking DJ.
00:09:43They got something special for you upstairs.
00:09:47Guillermo, you always know what I like.
00:09:50Yeah.
00:09:59Appreciate that.
00:10:09Can you believe that asshole Lamberti?
00:10:21Yeah.
00:10:22That prick probably makes more money in a month than I'll save my lifetime.
00:10:28I'll save my lifetime.
00:10:32Tell me something, David.
00:10:35When you walk into a place like that, are you thinking to yourself, why the fuck am I married?
00:10:39No, because Joanne's worth ten of them.
00:10:44Ten?
00:10:46That's pretty incredible.
00:10:48So is she, pal.
00:10:49I wonder what she says about you?
00:10:52She says I'm all she needs.
00:10:56I'm picking it because I was depressed.
00:11:01The main thing it did was loosen me up.
00:11:02Can you elaborate?
00:11:03I thought about having sex with a lot of guys a lot of different ways.
00:11:16I thought about seducing a room full of prim guys like judges and lawyers and doctors.
00:11:25And they couldn't resist my charms.
00:11:31And they turned into animals.
00:11:34Not literally, but wild sex creatures.
00:11:39And they'd start taking me by force.
00:11:42And passing me around from man to man.
00:11:44And, um, I thought about seducing a young guy who's never had sex before.
00:11:55And I just have to teach him everything.
00:11:59And I thought about sex with a beautiful woman.
00:12:03And couples.
00:12:05Um, no idea.
00:12:07Why make you feel so good?
00:12:09Shut up and you'll be out of here in an hour.
00:12:10Now there's plenty of time for us.
00:12:12Let's get up here.
00:12:14Imagine being cooped up with her for five minutes.
00:12:19Not a prize, huh?
00:12:21Yeah, a booby prize.
00:12:41I got it right there.
00:12:42Just like...
00:12:43I met David a year ago.
00:12:46It was a Tuesday.
00:12:47I met David a year ago. It was a Tuesday. I was driving to work. I had this shift at
00:13:03this cocktail lounge. I was late, so I guess I was speeding. He pulled me over and he gave
00:13:09me a traffic ticket. A week later, he paid my fine. He left his wife and that was that.
00:13:17The first few months, David was incredible. I had never had a man treat me so well. It
00:13:28was like we were one person. When the money got tight, we started having problems. He
00:13:36was always worried about being able to pay the bills. The mortgage on the house, it was
00:13:40way too high. So he worked more. We had less time together. I made up this total
00:13:47fantasy life. I made up all these men who paid attention to me. When did that end?
00:13:54It didn't. And so the relationship got worse. So I decided I was going to make
00:14:03David pay attention to me like he did when we were first together.
00:14:10So listen to me like that somebody just put my business on the page. What?
00:14:14And so this is a decision that I picked them on the page. What did you feel?
00:14:18Today I heard that I did find myself in peace because I was going to make a
00:14:32Let's go.
00:14:33Let's go.
00:14:54Joanne!
00:15:02Councilman Fletcher Ross officiated at groundbreaking ceremonies for the Angelico shelter for abused
00:15:17children.
00:15:18Ross described the shelter as one more facet of his Clean Up Our City campaign.
00:15:22...in many areas thought to be strongholds of Mayor Garibaldi.
00:15:52Do you think you look good?
00:15:57The goddamn television is out!
00:16:12He must have felt rejected.
00:16:15He was really withdrawn.
00:16:18I thought that he was unhappy with me and that he'd grown tired of me.
00:16:23I didn't know that we were on the verge of a breakthrough in our relationship.
00:16:27I kept going...
00:16:36Who is it?
00:16:37Intercontinental cable.
00:16:39You reported a problem?
00:16:41Do you need to come inside?
00:16:42Yeah, I need to check all the connections inside and out.
00:16:57Do you want something to drink?
00:16:59Uh, no thanks.
00:17:03Are you sure?
00:17:04Ah, if it's not too much trouble.
00:17:14No trouble at all.
00:17:17So what do you got?
00:17:20What would you like?
00:17:24What's your husband drink?
00:17:27Beer, I guess.
00:17:28You got her.
00:17:30You got her.
00:17:31You got her.
00:17:33You got your partner.
00:17:34Her Cooper...
00:17:35Your wife.
00:17:37So what'll it be?
00:17:42He's a cop.
00:17:44That's right.
00:17:45A boy's fantasy come true...
00:17:49So he's always gone, fighting crime.
00:17:51Sounds dangerous.
00:17:54I like danger.
00:18:01I... I'm married.
00:18:03We have a lot...
00:18:06He liked to watch.
00:18:22That's what really turned him on.
00:18:25That was the secret.
00:18:27Watching me have sex with other men.
00:18:30Doing everything nasty with them.
00:18:33He loved it all.
00:18:36That's how it all got started.
00:18:38Whose idea was the ad? Yours or his?
00:18:41Mine, I think.
00:18:43I'd said it as a joke, but...
00:18:45David was all for it.
00:18:47The money, ever.
00:18:49It was like therapy for both of us.
00:18:52I know this is going to sound strange to a lot of people,
00:18:55but it saved our marriage.
00:18:58And we were two people who loved each other very much.
00:19:01We still did.
00:19:06We have power.
00:19:08Aha!
00:19:10Smile for me, baby.
00:19:12All right.
00:19:13How about parting those lips?
00:19:15Wow.
00:19:16You look fantastic.
00:19:30I'm nervous.
00:19:31Yeah.
00:19:32Me too.
00:19:33You sure you want to go through with this, Joanne?
00:19:37So enjoy yourself and...
00:19:38Remember, I'm right in the next room.
00:19:39Okay.
00:19:40I think he's here.
00:19:41I love you.
00:19:42I love you.
00:19:43I love you.
00:19:48You sure you want to go through with this, Joanne?
00:19:53So enjoy yourself, and remember, I'm right in the next room.
00:19:58Okay.
00:20:00I think he's here.
00:20:08I love you.
00:20:18Hi, Ken.
00:20:27Court went a little longer than I expected.
00:20:30Come on in.
00:20:33This is for you.
00:20:39What a nice choice.
00:20:41Well, I only pay for the best.
00:20:48You're a lawyer?
00:20:58You could say that.
00:21:00What would you say?
00:21:02I guess I would say I'm an assistant DA.
00:21:06I'm impressed.
00:21:09Well, some girls find my position intimidating.
00:21:13Come on, a sexy guy like you.
00:21:22Do you have some glasses for this?
00:21:25Wouldn't you be more comfortable in the bedroom?
00:21:29Actually, if you don't mind, Joanne, do you mind if we just talk for a while?
00:21:37I have no idea.
00:21:46I wish.
00:21:49I interrupted.
00:21:54You were talking about your job.
00:21:57Job.
00:21:58You really want to know?
00:22:05Yeah, Mrs. Cole.
00:22:07I really want to know.
00:22:10He was...
00:22:12Totally unselfish.
00:22:17He really got into how I felt.
00:22:20He kept touching me.
00:22:22Stroking me.
00:22:24Until I thought I was going to explode.
00:22:28It's weird.
00:22:30But it was all about making me feel good.
00:22:35Maybe he came here tonight to prove he could make someone else happy.
00:22:40Yeah.
00:22:41Or maybe he was just looking to get laid.
00:22:44And that was great.
00:22:46The two of us were together, completely together.
00:22:49Well, not exactly just the two of you.
00:22:54How many others were there in the beginning?
00:22:57At first it was one or two a week.
00:23:00Kiss me, baby.
00:23:18Kiss me, baby.
00:23:23Kiss me, baby.
00:23:32Kiss me, baby.
00:23:38Come in.
00:23:42Nice to meet you.
00:23:43Thanks for having us.
00:23:45Pleasure.
00:23:46Pleasure.
00:24:16I love you.
00:24:46Yeah, ma'am, interesting pre-sample.
00:25:13For me?
00:25:14You got it.
00:25:16I knew that she was me if I hadn't found a way to get out.
00:25:26But I found a way to be happy.
00:25:29And David loved me.
00:25:31We could have gone on like that for the rest of our lives.
00:25:40Yeah, David.
00:25:42William Lamberti here.
00:25:44Listen, I need your help, guy.
00:25:46I wonder a lot of heat.
00:25:48Got Fletcher Ross sent over some jerk yesterday.
00:25:51So what?
00:25:52Well, so I need you to get him off my back.
00:25:57Look, I know how you like to watch my girls dance.
00:26:01I'm a generous man when it comes to favors.
00:26:03I'm not asking for anything for you.
00:26:05I don't need anything from you.
00:26:07So go screw yourself.
00:26:09I know it's time to tell you what I think of y'all.
00:26:13What's that all about?
00:26:15Eh, nothing.
00:26:16Just, uh, some lunatic.
00:26:18Can you believe these bastards want to cut our pay?
00:26:21Like we don't have enough to put up with around here?
00:26:23Hey, it happens every year.
00:26:25It's just talk.
00:26:26We put our lives on the line every day for these assholes,
00:26:29and look what we get back, huh?
00:26:31I should have gone to medical school like I wanted to.
00:26:33It's only money.
00:26:35I thought all you cared about was money.
00:26:37Rod, there's some things in life money just can't buy.
00:26:40Like what?
00:26:41Love.
00:26:42And the perfect woman.
00:26:47Come on in.
00:26:48Thanks.
00:26:55You're a friend of Judge Keaton's?
00:26:57Yes.
00:26:58He was right about you.
00:27:11You're a lawyer?
00:27:16Me?
00:27:17No.
00:27:18I'm a doctor.
00:27:19Really?
00:27:20What kind?
00:27:21I'm a heart specialist.
00:27:23Keeps you healthy.
00:27:25Is that true?
00:27:27Sure.
00:27:31Here's to our health.
00:27:41I think we'll keep them on.
00:28:01They always take such good care of themselves.
00:28:05There's some things money just can't buy.
00:28:09Parker was saying the same thing today.
00:28:12Shh.
00:28:28We have a deck chair.
00:28:29You tired or what?
00:28:31You got that one right.
00:28:33What's officer I'm not getting paid shit burning for?
00:28:37Well, it's not money, so you figure it out.
00:28:40Oh, yeah.
00:28:41The big date.
00:28:42So how was she?
00:28:44Question is, how wasn't she?
00:28:48Does that mean she was good?
00:28:51Good?
00:28:52Oh, man.
00:28:53She did everything.
00:28:54There's not one thing she didn't do.
00:28:57You're gonna fill a crap.
00:28:58She was probably 55 with loads of kids.
00:29:03Let me tell you something, partner.
00:29:07She did things that your wife would never, ever do.
00:29:11So why didn't you tell me about it?
00:29:14It was wild.
00:29:17It lasted for hours.
00:29:19Rod was a great partner for both of us.
00:29:20And David didn't mind?
00:29:21No.
00:29:22Did he ever get tired of watching?
00:29:23Not really.
00:29:24But after a while, he wanted me to watch with him so we could make love in front of the screen.
00:29:38And basically, he wanted to do what we saw.
00:29:42I would be the woman on the screen.
00:29:45And he would be the man.
00:29:47Or whoever.
00:29:49And that way, we could share the benefits of our education.
00:29:53I'll be there as soon as I can.
00:30:00Hmm?
00:30:01So, just make sure the tabs on the tape aren't broken.
00:30:04And press play and record.
00:30:06Good.
00:30:07See you later, baby.
00:30:08Forget it, Dave.
00:30:10I never met a woman who could work a VCR.
00:30:12This is no ordinary woman.
00:30:23If people don't lock their doors, I guess they want you to come in.
00:30:36I didn't know it was unlocked.
00:30:38Are you who I think you are?
00:30:43Wait.
00:30:44Wait.
00:30:45I didn't do nothing, officer.
00:30:48Dave.
00:30:51This lady invited me here.
00:30:54She done anything to you?
00:30:56No.
00:30:57You sure?
00:30:58I just want him to go.
00:31:04So this lady's your girlfriend?
00:31:06Or is it your wife?
00:31:08That night really scared me.
00:31:11Up until then, it had been people I liked.
00:31:14Civilized people.
00:31:16Certainly nobody I had to be afraid of.
00:31:20David knew that things would never be the same after that.
00:31:24He tried to pretend that things would go back to normal, but...
00:31:29I saw a friend of yours tonight.
00:31:32I think he could help us.
00:31:35Hey, officer.
00:31:36It's, uh, William.
00:31:37You know?
00:31:38William Tell or William Not Tell, if you're lucky.
00:31:41Huh?
00:31:42Hey.
00:31:43Holy foolin'.
00:31:44It's Lemberti.
00:31:45Boy, have I got a great deal for you.
00:31:47So give us a call here.
00:31:49We'll have to talk to you real soon while this is all refreshing and everybody's buying.
00:31:52Okay?
00:31:53Ciao, baby.
00:31:54So who's the guy, Lemberti, who called?
00:32:17You heard that one, huh?
00:32:20Mm-hmm.
00:32:25Guy's nobody.
00:32:26Scum.
00:32:27Forget it.
00:32:32What was that weird message all about?
00:32:34Nothing I can't handle.
00:32:47Are you into politics or you just like my campaign?
00:33:03Well, I like what you do for women.
00:33:06And looking around the office, I see that, um, you hire mostly women.
00:33:12I do what I can.
00:33:18I believe that, um, politicians can make a difference.
00:33:24And they're not out for themselves how everybody says they are.
00:33:28Well, maybe we can use you a little more.
00:33:33Well, feel free to call me anytime.
00:33:37End over time is no problem.
00:33:39Good.
00:33:40Sometimes I do need extra help at night.
00:33:44Oh, sorry, Fletch.
00:34:02I didn't know if anyone was here.
00:34:03Hello, David.
00:34:04How you been?
00:34:05Diane, can you give me a cup of coffee, will you please, Black?
00:34:09Yes.
00:34:14Thanks for you.
00:34:19Business as usual, eh, boss?
00:34:21You gotta keep the followers happy.
00:34:23Especially around a lichen tap, huh?
00:34:25Yeah, those lemmings, too.
00:34:26Hey, David, I'm in kind of a tight schedule.
00:34:29What can I do for you?
00:34:31Actually, Fletch, I think it's something I can do for you.
00:34:35Really?
00:34:36The guys and me have been talking, and, uh, we've decided, you know,
00:34:39you've done some real good things for the force over the years.
00:34:41And, uh, we sure like to see you become the next mayor.
00:34:45Use all the support I can get.
00:34:48And so we want to start helping you close down some of them damn strip clubs.
00:34:52Get in there, look for violations, make it real difficult for the customers to enjoy themselves, you know?
00:34:58What's the catch?
00:35:02We're worried about pay cuts.
00:35:04Don't worry, David.
00:35:05There'll be no pay cuts.
00:35:12Here's your coffee, sir.
00:35:14Diane, there's some foolers in the Goober account in the outer office.
00:35:16Would you get those for me, please?
00:35:17Yes.
00:35:22You sure can pick them.
00:35:25You still married?
00:35:26Yeah.
00:35:28I heard you got married again.
00:35:30Yeah.
00:35:33You don't seem too thrilled about it.
00:35:35No, it's okay.
00:35:36It's a good arrangement.
00:35:37But, uh, there's some things in life you gotta leave home to get, if you know what I mean.
00:35:42Yeah.
00:35:43Tell me about it.
00:35:44Heck, I was with some girl last night, I gotta tell you.
00:35:47You know, I've always had a weakness for beautiful women, but this one was flawless.
00:35:53But I should put you on.
00:35:54Hey, wait a minute.
00:35:57Tell me about her.
00:35:58What, the wife?
00:35:59Little dickhead.
00:36:00The girl last night.
00:36:02Oh, that's the damnedest thing.
00:36:05I saw about it in a newspaper, an ad.
00:36:08What, an out-call service?
00:36:10No, no.
00:36:11This is a freelance situation.
00:36:14Very exclusive.
00:36:23I have had everything I ever wanted.
00:36:26Then go home.
00:36:28You don't need me.
00:36:29You know who I am, do you?
00:36:30I'm a pretty important man, lady.
00:36:31I keep this whole damn city running smoothly.
00:36:32Son of a bitch.
00:36:33Hey, great.
00:36:34Oh, fucking great.
00:36:35I'll tell you, just great.
00:36:36And plenty of close-ups.
00:36:37Yeah.
00:36:38I love it.
00:36:39You know what I feel?
00:36:40I love it.
00:36:41I love it.
00:36:42You know what I feel?
00:36:43I love it.
00:36:44I love it.
00:36:45I love it.
00:36:46I love it.
00:36:47I love it.
00:36:48I love it.
00:36:49I love it.
00:36:50I love it.
00:36:51I love it.
00:36:52I love it.
00:36:53I love it.
00:36:54I love it.
00:36:55I love it.
00:36:56I love it.
00:36:57You know what I feel?
00:36:59I feel, uh, vindicated.
00:37:02I thought you would.
00:37:04You know, I see it.
00:37:07There's two things that make the world go round.
00:37:10One is sex.
00:37:12And money.
00:37:14And we're in the same business.
00:37:16You and me.
00:37:17And your wife.
00:37:19We got the same animal instincts.
00:37:22You know what I mean?
00:37:24There's two kinds of animals.
00:37:26The ones that eat.
00:37:27And the ones that get eaten.
00:37:29You know what I want to see?
00:37:32I want to see Fletcher Ross mauled.
00:37:37And then eaten.
00:37:39Can you dig it?
00:37:42You're getting ahead of yourself.
00:37:45First, we gotta discuss terms.
00:37:47Terms?
00:37:48What are you talking about, terms?
00:37:49The tape's yours.
00:37:50For 50 grand.
00:37:51In cash.
00:37:52By Friday.
00:37:53What are you, nuts?
00:37:54I thought I was talking to a reasonable man.
00:37:55Where the fuck do you think I'm gonna get a hold of 50 grand?
00:37:56You got connections.
00:37:57Hey.
00:37:58Why should I give you a goddamn nickel?
00:37:59It's your ass that's on the line.
00:38:00All I gotta do is take this tape to the cops.
00:38:01And I know plenty of cops.
00:38:02Yeah, me too.
00:38:03And that got me thinking.
00:38:04I mean, I've been on the force, what?
00:38:05Seven years?
00:38:06Seven years?
00:38:07Seven years?
00:38:08And I know plenty of cops.
00:38:10Yeah, me too.
00:38:11And that got me thinking.
00:38:12I mean, with that one, seven years?
00:38:13Seven years, seven years without one reprimand.
00:38:19So who they're gonna believe?
00:38:21You?
00:38:22Or me?
00:38:23You got any proof?
00:38:24Yeah.
00:38:25How long?
00:38:27Let me go.
00:38:28And that got me thinking.
00:38:29I mean, I've been on the force one.
00:38:31Seven years.
00:38:32Seven years without one reprimand.
00:38:35So who they gonna believe?
00:38:37You?
00:38:38Or me?
00:38:39You got any proof?
00:38:40Yeah!
00:38:41I got the air.
00:38:45I don't mean shit.
00:38:47Oh, yeah, you got the word of Emelcio Hernandez.
00:38:50But I bet you 50 grand.
00:38:53You couldn't get that twisted, son of a bitch,
00:38:56anywhere near a police station.
00:39:00Stay in touch, huh?
00:39:11Don't you think you should tell me what's going on?
00:39:26Try your tea. Tell me if I made it too strong.
00:39:30Are you blackmailing Fletcher Ross?
00:39:34Personally? No.
00:39:38But if it suits our purposes to help one of his enemies,
00:39:41then who cares?
00:39:43Guy's a first-class prick.
00:39:46David.
00:39:48Joanne.
00:39:51You're looking at a good, clean cop, okay?
00:39:54Nobody puts the screws on me.
00:39:56On us.
00:39:58Just turn your tables, okay?
00:40:03I don't know.
00:40:05In fact, I wouldn't worry about it if I were you,
00:40:08because it's all taken care of.
00:40:10Rather neat little piece of work on my part.
00:40:16Open wide.
00:40:24Beautiful.
00:40:25I had my doubts.
00:40:36I trusted David to work things out.
00:40:39It was beyond his control.
00:40:41Lamberti was as determined to keep himself in action as we were.
00:40:45As a policeman, David should have known.
00:40:47If you bring the streets into your home,
00:40:49you can't control what's going to happen.
00:40:51What if he changes his mind?
00:40:54Hmm.
00:40:55He's a businessman.
00:40:56He'll take the easy way out.
00:40:57What about Ross?
00:40:58Ha!
00:40:59Fletcher's no fool.
00:41:00He'll find some new cars to focus in on.
00:41:01Someone's here.
00:41:02He's a friggin' dyke!
00:41:04Let me talk to her.
00:41:05Then get rid of that.
00:41:06Joanne, it's Ingrid!
00:41:07Ingrid, what is it?
00:41:08Please, darling, I have to talk to you.
00:41:10It's very important.
00:41:11I can't talk to you.
00:41:12Not now.
00:41:13You have to leave.
00:41:14I tried calling.
00:41:15Look, I have tickets.
00:41:16I'm taking the tickets.
00:41:17I'm taking the tickets.
00:41:18I'm taking the tickets.
00:41:19I'm taking the tickets.
00:41:20I'm taking the tickets.
00:41:21I'm taking the tickets.
00:41:22What?
00:41:23What is it?
00:41:24Ingrid, what is it?
00:41:25Please, darling, I have to talk to you.
00:41:26It's very important.
00:41:27I can't talk to you.
00:41:28Not now.
00:41:29You have to leave.
00:41:30I tried calling.
00:41:31Look, I have tickets.
00:41:32I'm taking you to France.
00:41:33I've got everything planned.
00:41:34You don't have to worry about the thing.
00:41:35Ingrid, I can't leave.
00:41:36Not now.
00:41:37How about that?
00:41:38Why, you're close.
00:41:39I'll take care of you.
00:41:40I can't.
00:41:41But I love you.
00:41:42Ingrid, no!
00:41:43Ingrid, guess what?
00:41:44We're not interested in your fucking problem.
00:41:47David, what do you think you're doing?
00:41:49What do you think you're doing?
00:41:50What do you think you're doing?
00:41:51This is an emergency.
00:41:52Please help me.
00:41:53I saw a man at the house.
00:41:54He's my friend.
00:41:55He's got a gun.
00:41:56Yes.
00:41:57650 Paloma Avenue.
00:41:58In, uh, Woodland Hills.
00:41:59Yes.
00:42:21Where the hell was she gonna take you?
00:42:34France.
00:42:35That's gotta be him.
00:42:40Okay, you let him in.
00:42:42Just make sure he's alone, alright?
00:42:44Hey.
00:42:45Hey.
00:42:46Hey.
00:42:47Yeah.
00:42:48Glad you could make it.
00:42:49You got all of it?
00:42:50Every cent.
00:42:51Well, I guess you're the girl that started all the fuss.
00:42:53You got all of it?
00:42:54Every cent.
00:42:55Well, I guess you're the girl that started all the fuss.
00:43:08Hello.
00:43:10I'm sorry.
00:43:11You got all of it?
00:43:13Every cent.
00:43:14Well, I guess you're the girl that started all the fuss.
00:43:19Don't fuss.
00:43:21Hello.
00:43:26I understand you're gonna become a big video star.
00:43:29Unlock the case, Lombardi.
00:43:32You can offer me a drink?
00:43:34Just open the goddamn case.
00:43:38David.
00:43:40If we're gonna be partners,
00:43:44you gotta learn to trust me.
00:43:49Face your eyes.
00:43:56Okay, fix them.
00:43:58Rise.
00:44:00Rise and rise.
00:44:04Just pull the gun out of your back.
00:44:06Throw it over there.
00:44:08Don't touch it.
00:44:10It's right here.
00:44:11You watching?
00:44:13It's going down.
00:44:15It's down.
00:44:17Now, give me the tape.
00:44:18A thing.
00:44:20There better be a tape.
00:44:22Of course, it's a fucking videotape.
00:44:28All right.
00:44:29You're in the briefcase.
00:44:3150 grand.
00:44:34You snake.
00:44:36Take me.
00:44:46Now, stop it.
00:44:47Here we go.
00:44:48Please.
00:44:49Don't shoot! Don't shoot!
00:44:51It's my partner.
00:45:01What the fuck's going on here, David?
00:45:03That maniac broke into my house.
00:45:05What?
00:45:07What?
00:45:09What?
00:45:11What?
00:45:13What?
00:45:15What?
00:45:17This is your house?
00:45:19It was after my wife.
00:45:21Your wife?
00:45:23Who's gonna kill me, Rod.
00:45:25Why don't you tell them about the blackmail scam?
00:45:27Tell them about the videotapes?
00:45:29With your wife making it with all of her gentlemen friends?
00:45:33Let's talk about this at the station, huh?
00:45:35Yeah, if I talk, I tell them everything.
00:45:37Hear me?
00:45:39Then that's how it goes down, partner.
00:45:41Let's go.
00:45:47Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:45:57Might be, uh, um...
00:46:01And how did you feel when the media got hold of your story?
00:46:07I didn't realize that was such a big deal.
00:46:11I didn't know our story would attract so much attention.
00:46:15I wasn't prepared for any of it.
00:46:17And from what I hear, there are dozens of public and private figures
00:46:21that would do just about anything to keep their name out of it.
00:46:25I wouldn't know anything about that.
00:46:35Uh, I can't comment about that at this time.
00:46:37Our office is not ready to release any information about the case,
00:46:39so there's been a full review.
00:46:41What can you tell us about the videotapes?
00:46:43I can't comment.
00:46:45But the people who have seen the tapes have identified many of the people involved.
00:46:47What are you saying about that?
00:46:49I, uh, can't comment.
00:46:51Well, what about Fletcher Ross?
00:46:53No comment.
00:46:54What about the black book?
00:46:55No comment.
00:46:56Mr. Craven, these people are witnesses to a crime,
00:46:57and under state law, their names have to be made public.
00:46:59Are you aware of that?
00:47:00Wait a minute.
00:47:02What crime?
00:47:03Mr. Van Horn, as a Cole's attorney,
00:47:05you should be well aware of the charges being brought against them.
00:47:08Prostitution and extortion.
00:47:10There is no prostitution.
00:47:13No extortion.
00:47:15No crime of any kind.
00:47:17What about the videotapes?
00:47:19Okay, I'll come to that.
00:47:21What about the black book?
00:47:23I'll answer all your questions.
00:47:25Just give me a chance to tell the truth.
00:47:28What has been characterized as a crime perpetrated by the Cole's is actually a tragedy.
00:47:35What has been called perverseness is underneath all the tar and feathers really a love story, pure and simple.
00:47:42What we have here is a loving couple, compatible in every way except in the bedroom.
00:47:49Joanne Cole suffers from excessive sexual desires, nymphomania, a medical condition.
00:47:56Induced and exacerbated by the use of the drug Primac, which was prescribed to her by a medical doctor.
00:48:03Because of the deep love that this couple felt for one another, they dealt with this blow to their marital stability in a sane and rational way.
00:48:15Accommodation.
00:48:17If this had been a wasting illness, David Cole would be praised for supporting his wife's needs.
00:48:23He would have been called a hero and she would have been a saint.
00:48:26She took her treatment, her therapy in a safe environment, a clinical environment entirely under the supervision of her husband.
00:48:36They needed and depended on one another because they loved each other.
00:48:41There's a black book with names and dates and dollar amounts.
00:48:45Heaps of videos of judges, politicians and lawyers in bed with your client.
00:48:49How does all this square with your therapy defense?
00:48:51These other people, their names, their prestige were irrelevant to the Cole's.
00:48:57The camera was David's way of assessing his wife's condition.
00:49:02It was as clinical as an X-ray or an MRI.
00:49:07Look, I hope that everybody who hears the Cole's story will recognize the commonality of it
00:49:13and perhaps relate it to travails in their own lives.
00:49:17Then I think the public will react generously.
00:49:20Not just with sympathy, but with understanding.
00:49:24Mr. Van Hort, Van Hort!
00:49:27They sell t-shirts with your picture on it. You've been on radio shows. You've been on national television. You're a celebrity now.
00:49:48It's incredible, isn't it?
00:49:50Now that you've accepted the plea bargain, are you going to put all this behind you?
00:49:54No. I think it'll be kept alive for a long time.
00:50:00Why?
00:50:02Because I think it fulfills a need.
00:50:05I think a lot of people would like to experience my story firsthand, but they can't. Or they won't.
00:50:11And so the more details they hear, the more real the experience becomes to them.
00:50:17What about the videotapes? Did Fletcher Ross's resignation and withdrawal from the mayor's race have anything to do with you?
00:50:24All I know is what his statement said. That he had some sort of medical problem.
00:50:30Beyond that, I wouldn't presume to comment on his motives.
00:50:34So what are your plans?
00:50:39Our plans?
00:50:41We've had a lot of nice offers.
00:50:44I think we're going to go to Barbados for a while.
00:50:48I think we'll work things out on the beach. Have some fun.
00:50:52You're welcome to join us if you'd like.
00:50:55Well, if you had a chance to do it all over again, would you do it again?
00:51:06I'd leave out a few things, but overall, sure.
00:51:11I got what I always wanted, didn't I?
00:51:14Which was?
00:51:17Love.
00:51:22Well, I guess that sums it up.
00:51:24Is there anything else you wanted to say?
00:51:27Yeah.
00:51:29Hi, Mom and Dad, if you're watching.
00:51:52We'll see you next time.
00:51:53Bye.
