00:00:20I'm going to take a look at the 33 B. Flower Lane.
00:00:35400 B. Flower.
00:00:45Taxi!
00:00:50845 23rd Street.
00:00:58You got it.
00:01:20You okay back there, miss?
00:01:24Yeah, why wouldn't I be?
00:01:26It's a nasty neighborhood.
00:01:28Yeah, well, maybe I'm a nasty girl.
00:01:30Okay.
00:01:40Dan.
00:01:43You sure you okay back there?
00:01:45Look, I don't feel much like conversation, so could you just drive, please?
00:01:51Okay.
00:02:00It would be healthy for both of us if you keep your eyes on the road.
00:02:10Sure.
00:02:11Sure.
00:02:41Did you do me a favor?
00:02:42Cut across the tent?
00:02:55Why the hell not?
00:02:56Do me a favor, cut it across the tent?
00:03:07Why the hell not?
00:03:23Hey, Chris.
00:03:26Can I ask you something personal?
00:03:28Sure, fire away.
00:03:31How far would you go?
00:03:33How much evil would you commit for somebody you love?
00:03:37What?
00:03:41Would you kill someone?
00:03:45For somebody you love?
00:03:47Yes.
00:03:50I don't know, it depends.
00:03:52I just did.
00:03:52Did what?
00:03:56Murdered a man.
00:03:59Why are you telling me this?
00:04:02I was just goofing.
00:04:05I just wanted to see how you react.
00:04:12See ya.
00:04:13Hold on, wait.
00:04:14Wait a minute.
00:04:15Hey!
00:04:16Come here!
00:04:17Hey!

00:04:19Come on, let's go!
00:04:21Hey!
00:04:22Hey!
00:04:22Hey!
00:04:23I'm so sorry!
00:04:24Come here!
00:04:24Let's go!
00:04:25Hey!
00:04:25Get out!
00:04:26Hey!
00:04:26Hey!
00:04:27Holy shit, who we got here, Chris Morgan, the Chris Morgan, scumbag
00:04:57rat bastard of the year. This piece of crap belong to you? Yeah. You got a license, of course.
00:05:05Of course. So this is what you're doing now, huh, Morgan? Pushing a hack around the city?
00:05:10I'm on personal leave from the department. A woman just jumped her fare.
00:05:14Good for her. So this is the canary of the 4-5 house. The guy talking to internal affairs.
00:05:20I didn't say anything to internal affairs, pal. Yeah, now I'm Elvis's love child.
00:05:27There you go. Have a nice day.
00:05:34Hey, Morgan, you better fix that door.
00:05:57Hey, Morgan, you better fix that door. Yeah, you better fix that door. Yeah, you better fix that door.
00:06:04Hey, Morgan!
00:06:25Hey!
00:06:27You scared the hell out of me.
00:06:29Scared the hell out of you.
00:06:31What are you doing here?
00:06:33I got lonely, so I thought I'd come over and wait.
00:06:36Yeah?
00:06:37Mm-hmm.
00:06:38I guess I must have nodded off.
00:06:40Mm-hmm.
00:06:41It's OK.
00:06:42It's OK.
00:06:43It's OK.
00:06:44It's OK.
00:06:45It's OK.
00:06:46It's OK.
00:06:47It's OK.
00:06:48It's OK.
00:06:49It's OK.
00:06:50It's OK.
00:06:51It's OK.
00:06:52It's OK.
00:06:53It's OK.
00:06:54It's OK.
00:06:55It's OK.
00:06:58It's OK.
00:06:59It's OK.
00:07:00Have I been ignoring you?
00:07:01You haven't called me in two days.
00:07:03I'm sorry.
00:07:25Good afternoon, Mrs. Truitt.
00:07:26Hello.
00:07:27I need a necklace to go with these earrings.
00:07:31You know, I think I have the perfect thing for you, Mrs. Truitt.
00:07:35Hi.
00:07:36Hello.
00:07:37Hello.
00:07:38Have we met?
00:07:39Oh, yeah.
00:07:40The other night, you were wearing a blue dress.
00:07:41Oh, at the Abbey.
00:07:42No.
00:07:43In my cab.
00:07:44No.
00:07:45In my cab.
00:07:46No.
00:07:47No.
00:07:48No.
00:07:49No.
00:07:50No.
00:07:51No.
00:07:52No.
00:07:53No.
00:07:54No.

00:08:03No.
00:08:04No.
00:08:05In my cab.
00:08:06You beat me for my fare.
00:08:09Mrs. Truitt.
00:08:10I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:08:13Obviously, you have more of an impression on me than you.
00:08:16As in, how much evil would you commit?
00:08:20Remember that?
00:08:23Miss, call security, please.
00:08:25Miss, don't bother.
00:08:28Miss.
00:08:29Miss.
00:08:30Miss.
00:08:31Miss.

00:08:54Miss.
00:08:55Miss.
00:08:56Miss.
00:08:57I just want what I earned.
00:09:27All right, so listen, mate, there's a tortoise walking down the road.
00:09:39He's got $200.
00:09:40He's going up the pubs.
00:09:57Hey, I'm going to get you.
00:10:15I'll take a drive.
00:10:16Let's just let them know.
00:10:21We'll have to start talking quick.
00:10:27Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:10:34Oh, oh, oh.
00:10:38Feels so right, so right.
00:10:47Two hearts drip on an ocean.
00:10:53Suddenly found a paradigm
00:10:58Lost in a moment of emotion
00:11:04Lost in the measure of the night
00:11:09And it feels so right with you
00:11:15It feels so right with you
00:11:23Why you never felt like this before
00:11:31When you're making love
00:11:34Not with anyone
00:11:36I never knew that love could be this way
00:11:42Like it is with you
00:11:45Cause this time is true
00:11:48Oh this time is true
00:11:53It feels so right with you
00:12:10It feels so right with you
00:12:15It feels so right with you
00:12:23It feels so right with you

00:12:39It feels so right
00:12:41It feels so right
00:12:44You know it feels so right

00:13:00You know it feels so right
00:13:01You know it feels so right
00:13:02You know it feels so right
00:13:03You know it feels so right
00:13:04You know it feels so right
00:13:05You know it feels so right

00:15:53945 24th Street.
00:15:55945 24th Street.
00:15:57I'll get you reassigned to my unit.
00:15:59I could use someone like you, someone I can trust.
00:16:02Sounds great, but I just don't see help me.
00:16:04Hey, I've been 16 years in this department.
00:16:06I'm bucking for captain.
00:16:08I know whose ass is to kick and whose ass is to kiss.
00:16:10You're a good honest cop, Chris.
00:16:12Sometimes that's not enough.
00:16:15What you doing here, anyway?
00:16:17I'm just bird-dogging someone.
00:16:19Yeah? Who's that?
00:16:20Kerry Truett.
00:16:21That's a pretty ritzy circle for a cop, huh?
00:16:24How do you know her?
00:16:26I drove her around town one time.
00:16:28Oh. Want to meet her husband?
00:16:30No, I wouldn't know what to say to her.
00:16:32Well, that's all right.
00:16:33He probably don't have too much to say to you, either.
00:16:38Could you tell me where you were last night?
00:16:42I was performing.
00:16:44At the, uh, Abbey Club?
00:16:48That's right.
00:16:50Till about what time would you say?
00:16:521 a.m.
00:16:53Mm-hmm.
00:16:54Now, was this your profession, singing?
00:16:56Yes, I just started again.
00:16:58Again?
00:16:59When Charles and I married two years ago, I had to quit.
00:17:02He said it would be undignified for his wife.
00:17:05Would that be the reason that you separated?
00:17:09He contributed.
00:17:11He was twice my age, you know.
00:17:12We had very different ideas.
00:17:14Did he have any enemies?
00:17:16Lieutenant Charles is worth $25 million.
00:17:19That much money buys you plenty of enemies.
00:17:22Really?
00:17:23I would think it would buy your friends.
00:17:25Depends how you spend it.
00:17:30I see.
00:17:33Well, if there's anything else you can think of that might help us,
00:17:35I'd appreciate a call.
00:17:37I might have more questions for you later on.
00:17:39I got a man here that'll take you home.
00:17:44Thanks for coming in.
00:17:56Listen up, Chris.
00:17:57Yeah.
00:18:00Words on the street that a gun from, uh, Detroit's been paid to whack a Metro cop.
00:18:04Well, I guess we should all watch our backs.
00:18:09Well, only those of us that are involved in the corruption scandal down in the docks.
00:18:14They say the guy's already been paid 20 grand.
00:18:18I hear you.
00:18:19Thanks, Lieutenant.
00:18:20You know, I need to apologize to you about running out on your failure the night.
00:18:36I-I opened my wallet and I had no money.
00:18:39I panicked.
00:18:41Listen, uh, when I picked you up, you told me that you just killed a man.
00:18:46That's right.
00:18:47And?
00:18:48And the next thing I said was that I was just goofing around.
00:18:52It was just one of those silly things you say that turns out to have a tragic irony.
00:18:57Well, you told Lieutenant Kavanaugh that you would perform until 1 a.m. on Friday morning.
00:19:01But, uh, it doesn't ring true because I picked you up at 11.30 on Thursday night.
00:19:07I lied to your lieutenant.
00:19:10Why?
00:19:13I had a fight that night with the owner of the club, Mickey, and-
00:19:15Well, what'd you fight about?
00:19:16He wants to fuck me.
00:19:20I see.
00:19:21There are a lot of men I wouldn't mind going to bed with. Mickey's not one of them.
00:19:26I didn't ask.
00:19:28But you wanted to know.
00:19:30So why'd you come tonight?
00:19:48Wanted to hear you say it.
00:19:50Just couldn't stay away, huh?
00:19:51Look, I just, you know, like to experience new things. Meet new people.
00:19:57And what new thing did you experience tonight?
00:20:02Did you sing as good as you look?
00:20:04You're too kind.
00:20:07Well, maybe I've become a fan.
00:20:08Oh, I have enough fans.
00:20:11Yeah, well, maybe I'm your biggest fan.
00:20:14My husband was my biggest fan.
00:20:16My husband was my biggest fan.
00:20:46You live here?
00:20:48The only time I'm ever in places like this when someone's been robbed, raped, or murdered.
00:20:53So, do you intend on coming to the club again?
00:20:57I told you, I'm hooked. I'm a fan.
00:21:00My biggest fan, right?
00:21:01Sure.
00:21:02Yeah.
00:21:05Look, do us both a favor, okay?
00:21:08Stay away from me.
00:21:11Please.
00:21:14Thanks for the ride.
00:21:32The incident occurred at 1301 Anaconda near the pier.
00:21:54A gambling raid in a warehouse on the dock?
00:21:58That's correct.
00:21:59The plainclothes division affected the operation.
00:22:02I was in uniform on my regular shift.
00:22:04When did you first see the alleged amount of cash?
00:22:07Immediately. It was on the table in the kitchen.
00:22:09And why did you think there was approximately $400,000?
00:22:12I watched them count it.
00:22:14Who is them?
00:22:23A few uniformed men, a couple of detectives, property clerk.
00:22:28And the next day you learned that it was, uh, inventoryed at the 45th precinct at $39,000?
00:22:36That's right.
00:22:38Any chance you were mistaken?
00:22:40None.
00:22:41You want to talk about some names?
00:22:46I don't even want to be here.
00:22:49But you are here, aren't you?
00:22:51Mike, what's your client's current status with Metro PD?
00:22:55It's personal leave without pay.
00:22:56It seemed advisable since there's about one death threat a day.
00:22:59Only one.
00:23:02Well, that's not too bad.
00:23:05Chris, how long have you been on the force before this incident?
00:23:08Thirteen months.
00:23:10Lucky thirteen, huh?
00:23:12And you're aware that any police officers convicted of lifting confiscated cash would go to prison?
00:23:17I'm aware.
00:23:18And you know that you can be subpoenaed to testify?
00:23:20Christ, yes, I know.
00:23:23You didn't touch any money yourself?
00:23:28I'm a cop.
00:23:30I arrest people for stealing.
00:23:34Of course.
00:23:36As your learned legal counsel, I'm going to remind you how an illegal gambling bust works, right?
00:23:44I don't want to hear...
00:23:45Everyone.
00:23:46Prosecutors, detectives, judges, they've all got a piece of that pile.
00:23:50You know what else?
00:23:51What?
00:23:52The Spick, who was running the dice game.
00:23:55He had his money back in his pocket before he even got home that night.
00:23:58And since the game was crooked with let-back suckers, he took a dive anyhow.
00:24:02So don't you get it? Justice gets served.
00:24:05Mike, if you're gonna keep talking, why don't you tell me something I don't already know?
00:24:08I'll tell you something you don't know.
00:24:09You don't ever put honest numbers in a locker room.
00:24:12You know what? That's bullshit.
00:24:14I've been in and out of this filthy system, and I know how it works.
00:24:18I'm telling you, get back to Jacoby.
00:24:21You tell him you made a mistake. He's right, and you made a mistake.
00:24:25I know what I saw.
00:24:27Look at this. An honest cop.
00:24:31In theory, I respect you. In reality, I think you're a jerk.
00:24:36How the hell am I gonna help you?
00:24:38How the hell am I gonna help you?
00:24:40I think we're the one...
00:24:41Am I the one for you?
00:24:42Am I the one for you?
00:24:43Is this love that we're making?
00:24:45Am I the one for you?
00:24:48Is this love that we're making?
00:24:52Oh baby, tell me true
00:24:55Cause my heart's really breaking
00:24:59Am I the one for you?
00:25:04Tell me true, am I the one?
00:25:15Another one, another one
00:25:23Another one, another one
00:25:32Is this love that we're making?
00:25:35Am I the one for you?
00:25:45Mr. Fuller would like the pleasure of your company, mate
00:25:54Who's Mr. Fuller?
00:25:55He's the owner
00:25:56Hello again
00:26:03My, but you do get around
00:26:05Don't you know those things are bad for your health?
00:26:15Probably not as bad as you're gonna be
00:26:20And what kind of a greeting is that?
00:26:22By most standards a pretty chilly one
00:26:26So what am I to conclude from the fact that you're here again?
00:26:30That I still have a fan?
00:26:32Well that's part of it
00:26:34What's the other part?
00:26:37Find out why your husband was killed
00:26:40Who did it?
00:26:43You and I should chat
00:26:46Be at my house tomorrow night for dinner
00:27:13Hey, Chris Morgan, just the guy I wanna see
00:27:28Lieutenant Cavanaugh
00:27:29Hold it, hold it man
00:27:30Gotta lose the Vivaldi
00:27:32Lieutenant Cavanaugh said you call?
00:27:34No, I love crap like this
00:27:38You will too
00:27:39The Truett case, eh?
00:27:41Yeah
00:27:42Well, here's Charlie right now
00:27:44Two bullets through the frontal cranial lobe
00:27:47Right here
00:27:48Kaboom
00:27:49Kaboom
00:27:50Tiny but powerful little MF of a gun
00:27:52Yeah, I can see that
00:27:5325 caliber
00:27:55Now normally we'll see 22 caliber for Sicilian hits
00:27:58And larger caliber for street business
00:28:00You know, Marielitos and Jamaicans
00:28:02So there's an unusual fire
00:28:04This is a Derringer
00:28:06Really?
00:28:07Really
00:28:08Very distinctive
00:28:10Cadaver caddies bring us 2,500 snus a year
00:28:13And I don't see two with a Derringer
00:28:15Damn, look at this, look at this
00:28:21You see that? Look real close
00:28:23Powder burns?
00:28:24Powder burns?
00:28:25Heavy powder burns came us alley
00:28:27Killer pushed the gun in the victim's face and shot him
00:28:31Then when Herr Truett was on the ground
00:28:33Sorry Charlie
00:28:35Second shot was fired
00:28:37You can tell by the exit wounds
00:28:39Back of the head
00:28:41Large portions of bone, scalp and brain still missing
00:28:45Either bull recovered?
00:28:46Not in our lap
00:28:47I assume that they're out there somewhere in our fair city
00:28:50Along with a hunk of Charlie's skull
00:28:52You didn't find anything at the crime scene?
00:28:54We don't even know where he was shot
00:28:56Brutal
00:28:57Apparently the body was moved
00:28:59Well, she must be a strong girl
00:29:01To move the body herself
00:29:03That, or she had help
00:29:05Derringer's a woman's weapon
00:29:09And when a man gets shot that close by a woman
00:29:11It's gotta be a woman he knows
00:29:13And one who hates him real bad
00:29:22So what did your lieutenant say when you told him I lied?
00:29:33I didn't tell him you lied
00:29:35And all the things I said that night about having killed a man?
00:29:39I never brought it up
00:29:41Well that seems strange
00:29:43You're policemen, aren't those relevant details?
00:29:45Well, I hoped that in time you would explain them to me
00:29:49Adequately
00:29:52Have I?
00:29:56No
00:30:00So what I said that night has remained our secret
00:30:04That's right
00:30:08You really are very beautiful
00:30:10Don't hold back, Chris
00:30:15But you are
00:30:19My late husband used to tell me that I should be declared illegal in blue
00:30:23He said that I looked so good when I wore blue
00:30:25That I was dangerous
00:30:27I could get a man to do anything
00:30:40The nights are gone forever
00:30:44Ooh
00:30:46They will never be
00:30:49Again
00:30:55Um, can I have a sketch on the rock?
00:31:03Oh gosh, I'm sorry
00:31:05It's okay, no problem
00:31:07I'm just...
00:31:09Thanks
00:31:11I'm just a bit of a clutch tonight
00:31:24Here, let me help you
00:31:27You okay?
00:31:30Thanks
00:31:33Mr. Fuller showing you a good time?
00:31:35What?
00:31:36Mr. Fuller
00:31:41Oh, yeah?
00:31:45You a friend of his?
00:31:46No, are you?
00:31:50Look, do you wanna leave here?
00:31:54Oh...
00:31:56That's sweet, but...
00:31:59I'm with Mickey tonight
00:32:00Oh, no, no, I don't mean like that
00:32:01I mean...
00:32:02Do you want me to get you out of here and take you home?
00:32:06I'm just...
00:32:08Here you go, sweetie
00:32:09I'll get no strings for you and me
00:32:12Misses your pretty face, he does
00:32:14We're having a conversation
00:32:16Is there anything else you wanna tell this police officer, darling?
00:32:19Is there anything else you wanna tell this police officer, darling?
00:32:20Is there anything else you wanna tell this police officer, darling?
00:32:23There you have it then
00:32:25I just...
00:32:26That comes in the...
00:32:27Come on
00:32:28You...
00:32:29You...
00:32:30You...
00:32:31You...
00:32:32You...
00:32:50Jesus said that girl was terrified
00:32:52Bossy, uh...
00:32:54Pays for her
00:32:56Well, that makes sense, didn't?
00:32:58Why else would they hang out with a scumbag like that?
00:33:07Wanna get out of here?
00:33:08Can we go?
00:33:09Sure
00:33:25Get out of the car
00:33:44Get out of the car
00:33:47What?
00:33:55The car
00:33:58No...
00:34:00The car
00:34:06The car
00:34:07No
00:34:09The car
00:34:15The car
00:34:17She's a big boy
00:34:18She's a big boy
00:34:20The car
00:34:22Do you have time for a drink?
00:34:33Sure.
00:34:34Where?
00:34:35It's my favorite place.
00:34:37My treat.
00:34:38You'll see.
00:34:52Carrie, where are you taking me now, huh?
00:35:00Come on, trust me.
00:35:18This is my favorite place.
00:35:22I've come here to think.
00:35:23Yeah?
00:35:24Ma'am.
00:35:30Isn't this the most incredible view?
00:35:41Cold.
00:35:41You got an arm?
00:35:43Sure.
00:35:43So, has it occurred to you that I might have been involved in my husband's death?
00:35:54Of course.
00:35:56And what if I was?
00:35:58I'd arrest you.
00:35:59But if I killed one man, I'd kill another one, wouldn't I?
00:36:03I don't know, would you?
00:36:04Me and my sister, when we were little girls, we had big dreams of writing novels, murder
00:36:14mysteries, always with a valiant woman doing it, and a really evil man.
00:36:21Is your sister a writer?
00:36:23She would have been.
00:36:25She died eight years ago.
00:36:27Oh, I'm sorry.
00:36:29Oh, I'm sorry.
00:36:40You like that, don't you?
00:36:42Yeah.
00:36:43Mm-hmm.
00:36:46I'd like you more like this.
00:36:48I'd like you more like this.
00:37:18Do you ever wear a uniform?
00:37:26Until recently, I did.
00:37:29I bet you look good in blue, huh?
00:37:32As opposed to illegal?
00:37:34Yeah.
00:37:36You know, the cops use that term, too, illegal in blue, but it means something different.
00:37:41It means to break department discipline, to do something in uniform that no cop should
00:37:46ever do.
00:37:47He went illegal in blue, they would say.
00:37:49Meaning he ended up dead or in jail, right?
00:37:53Half the time someone goes illegal in blue, they get away with it.
00:37:57And the other half?
00:37:58Like you said, dead or in jail.
00:38:00It's like homicide statistics, you know?
00:38:02Half the cases get solved.
00:38:04The other half...
00:38:04Like the killer walks.
00:38:06Right.
00:38:10So, if I got away with one murder, I might not expect to get away with a second.
00:38:16Like the
00:38:29in jail, I might not expect to get away withcepcion.
00:38:30I think I'm scared of...
00:38:33The other half...
00:38:35Oh, my God.
00:39:05Oh, my God.
00:39:35Oh, my God.
00:40:05Oh, my God.
00:40:35Oh, my God.
00:41:05Oh, my God.
00:41:36Chris.
00:41:36Can you tell me what you're doing in Mrs. Stewart's apartment at 5 a.m. in the morning?
00:41:43She asked me to give her a lift home from the club.
00:41:48Uh-huh.
00:41:48And what time was that?
00:41:51Uh, about 1.30 a.m.
00:41:54That's a hell of a long cup of coffee for four hours, huh?
00:41:58Can I mention something that's very crucial to you?
00:42:00I went out on a goddamn limb to have you transferred to my command.
00:42:03You play by the rules, and you're my golden boy.
00:42:06You make me look like a jerk, and I swear to God, I'll bury you in shit deeper than you ever knew existed.
00:42:10Got that?
00:42:12I got it.
00:42:16I got it.
00:42:16I got it.
00:42:18I got it.
00:42:23I'm waiting for love.
00:42:23I have waiting for love.
00:42:28I have waiting, waiting for love.
00:42:32I'm waiting, waiting for love.
00:42:36Maybe love has found me.
00:42:40Maybe love has found me.
00:42:44Maybe love has found me alone.
00:42:55Maybe love has found me alone.

00:46:22Why are you leading him on?
00:46:23I have no reasons.
00:46:24Do you?
00:46:26I wouldn't do it if I didn't.
00:46:30Well?
00:46:32Well, what?
00:46:33Are you fucking him or not?
00:46:35Oh, my, but we're blunt.
00:46:37Look, I just want to know where I stand.
00:46:39Well, why don't I tell you?
00:46:40I'm a very moral girl, Chris.
00:46:42I only screw one man at a time,
00:46:44and I screw him so well that he couldn't possibly screw anybody else.
00:46:48Currently, that man is you.
00:46:50Satisfied?
00:46:55Yes.
00:46:56Damn right you are.
00:47:09Did you know your husband was killed with a derringer?
00:47:12Was he?
00:47:12Two shots at close range.
00:47:21One while he stood, the other while he was on the ground.
00:47:30How do you know?
00:47:31From the forensics report.
00:47:33They can tell all that?
00:47:35All that and more.
00:47:37Carrie, give me the...
00:47:37Oh, you mean like this?
00:47:39Bang.
00:47:46You know,
00:47:47the woman who murdered him
00:47:50may have been wearing a blue dress.
00:47:53Maybe.
00:47:54Maybe not.
00:47:56And what makes you think it was a woman?
00:48:01Just do.
00:48:03Oh, yeah.
00:48:06Know anyone who owns a derringer?
00:48:10I own him.
00:48:14Where is it?
00:48:17Come on in, Lieutenant.
00:48:19What's in your neighborhood?
00:48:21You don't mean to be dropping in, do you?
00:48:22No.
00:48:23It's on your mind.
00:48:23I wanted to talk to you without anybody else.
00:48:26It's okay, huh?
00:48:27Sure.
00:48:31You're going to get it?
00:48:35No, I already know the messages.
00:48:37Hey, this is Chris.
00:48:37Leave a message, he'll call you back.
00:48:39Dust off your best suit, Morgan.
00:48:40You're going to make a great-looking corpse.
00:48:43I'll return my calls later.
00:48:46The Truett case.
00:48:48What's new?
00:48:50I was going to ask you the same thing.
00:48:52Oh, we got a few things.
00:48:55I'm anxious to get her, you know.
00:48:57Get her?
00:48:57What do you think she is, an innocent woman?
00:49:00You tell me.
00:49:02Well, her name is Carrie Lennox.
00:49:06Pennyless kid from Dublin, Ohio.
00:49:09She could sing up a storm.
00:49:11Give wealthy old guys an instant hard-on.
00:49:14Two very useful talents that neither of us have.
00:49:16came to town, made a beeline for Charlie boy, married him.
00:49:22He gets snuffed just a short while before the divorce is finalized.
00:49:26Guess who inherits.
00:49:27So you're saying the money's the motive?
00:49:29Big surprise, huh?
00:49:32You're going to think they drink.
00:49:33Yeah, it's in the kitchen.
00:49:34Help yourself.
00:49:35Thanks.
00:49:35So how'd you come up with all this background?
00:49:40Well, you were my suspect.
00:49:41I got detectives on the job.
00:49:45You know, Gary's not the only one with financial motives.
00:49:50Truett had a silent partner.
00:49:52What was his name?
00:49:53Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know.
00:49:55Slimy-limey from the Abbey Club.
00:49:57Yeah.
00:49:58So he gets control of the club, so what?
00:50:00Well, it's something, isn't it?
00:50:01It's chicken shit, Chris.
00:50:04What's one million compared to 25?
00:50:07Besides, how did you find out about that?
00:50:10Oh, while your detectives are out thinking around,
00:50:13I was working on the case.
00:50:15Good boy.
00:50:17You got any ice?
00:50:18Well, why don't you open the freezer
00:50:19and see if you can find any?
00:50:20You're the detective.
00:50:22You're starting to get a little smart-assed.
00:50:24I like that.
00:50:25Well, I've been hanging out with you.
00:50:31Gary's a major arrest, Chris.
00:50:33We bust her and we both look good.
00:50:35I'm a captain.
00:50:37You, my lecherous young friend, you,
00:50:40will make detective.
00:50:42You play your cards, right?
00:50:47I know you've been in her house.
00:50:50I assume you've been bopping her.
00:50:52Tell me, is she as good as she looks?
00:50:59Moreover, can you get yourself invited back in?
00:51:01Why?
00:51:05Snoop around a little.
00:51:08Are you asking me to do an illegal search, Lieutenant?
00:51:11Hey, it's not illegal if she invites you in, pal.
00:51:15We need the location where she shot him.
00:51:17Maybe a witness can put her at the scene.
00:51:20Most of all, we need the murder weapon.
00:51:21The Derringer.
00:51:23Yeah, well, I'll keep my eyes open.
00:51:25You better keep your eyes wide open, pal.
00:51:28She put two slugs in her husband's kisser.
00:51:29Don't tell him what she'll do to you.
00:51:31I don't know about that, Lieutenant.
00:51:32She tried to warn me about the hitman.
00:51:33Well, try it with a different spin.
00:51:35Suppose she was the one who paid for the hitman.
00:51:38And then she makes herself look good by trying to stop it.
00:51:40She wins either way, right?
00:51:41Or maybe she goes down to the parking lot,
00:51:44making sure the job is finished.
00:51:46And then she's surprised to see that it's not.
00:51:49Think with your head, Chris.
00:51:50I'm with your dick.
00:51:51You live longer.
00:51:52Lieutenant Cavanaugh warned me about you.
00:52:09Oh, really?
00:52:09What did he say?
00:52:12That you killed your husband.
00:52:14So who knows what you'll do to me?
00:52:15How much do you know about your own lieutenant?
00:52:21Well, he's my first commanding officer, fair-minded, straight as an arrow.
00:52:27Well, he's not as honorable as you think.
00:52:32How would you know?
00:52:33He's been here.
00:52:35Here?
00:52:36Yes, asking questions.
00:52:42Well, it is his case.
00:52:45He was asking questions about you and me.
00:52:47I'm just warning you.
00:52:52Yeah, well, maybe I don't need to be warned.
00:52:55Maybe I can decide about people for myself.
00:52:59I hope so, lover.
00:53:17Chris Morgan, who wants to know?
00:53:23Lieutenant Howard Lyle, Internal Affairs.
00:53:25Detective Bruce Harris, Detective Leon Weber.
00:53:27Yeah, so?
00:53:28We've got a search warrant for your apartment.
00:53:31Want to have your lawyer present?
00:53:33No, it's not necessary.
00:53:35All right, let's get on with it.
00:53:44You must be leading some exciting life, Morgan.
00:53:46We had this place staked out for 12 hours before you showed up.
00:53:50Yeah, well, maybe you should have made an appointment.
00:53:53I never thought of that.
00:53:56What's this?
00:53:57It was in your freezer.
00:54:01What?
00:54:07You know, if these serial numbers match the ones that were inventoried from 1301 Anaconda,
00:54:13uh, officer, you're, uh, you're in a shitload of trouble.
00:54:23Chris, your fingerprints are the only ones on this.
00:54:26From when I unwrapped it?
00:54:29I don't know.
00:54:32Maybe you'll get 12 mongoloids.
00:54:33They'll all believe you.
00:54:34So, how we doing in here?
00:54:40You son of a bitch.
00:54:44Relax, Chris.
00:54:45Oh, shit, I can't believe this.
00:54:47Even though you're too green to understand it, you're gonna realize I've done you a fave.
00:54:51A fave?
00:54:51Well, thank you very much, you piece of shit.
00:54:55Chris, everything can work out very nicely.
00:54:59This is a case nobody wanted, remember?
00:55:01Frank, just get to it, all right?
00:55:03Just keep your shirt on, will ya?
00:55:04Officer Morgan, in conjunction with the June 10th arrests at 1301 Anaconda,
00:55:17you've drawn up your statement of retraction.
00:55:21You will acknowledge that your logbook was in error.
00:55:24Packets of $50 bills that you alleged you now believe to have been $5 bills.
00:55:29The tens you mistook as hundreds.
00:55:31It works out to $39,000 instead of $390,000.
00:55:37A rookie's error.
00:55:39Oh, this is bullshit.
00:55:42As your legal counsel, I advise you to sign it.
00:55:45In return, this $5,000 disappears to a public works fund.
00:55:54There will be no record of your arrest, much less this meeting.
00:55:58You take a few days of personal leave.
00:55:59Come back on Monday for a new assignment.
00:56:04In your personnel file will be a commendation from Captain Schneck and myself.
00:56:08Aren't you gonna read it?
00:56:18You know, I'm the only friend you've got in this room.
00:56:21Who the hell do you think wrote the goddamn thing?
00:56:22You know what?
00:56:31Fuck you.
00:56:32Oh, Chris.
00:56:33Fuck you, too.
00:56:34Fuck all of you guys.
00:56:35You wanna take me down?
00:56:37Go ahead.
00:56:38I'm going down anyway.
00:56:39But you know what, fellas?
00:56:41Now before I take every cop who stole money out of that warehouse with me,
00:56:44and anybody in this room who's trying to cover up their crime,
00:56:47I'm gonna make this a fucking media circus.
00:56:50That's right.
00:56:51You may not go to jail, but your cops will.
00:56:53And I'll tell you what, before I'm through,
00:56:55I will get you so much ink in the press
00:56:56that it will take years before you can watch the newsprint
00:56:59from your respective careers.
00:57:00This meeting is over.
00:57:19Ah, shit.
00:57:30Oh, shit.
00:58:00Oh, shit.
00:58:30Why don't I save you some time?
00:58:35What is it that you're looking for?
00:58:37A derringer.
00:58:40That's all this is to you, huh, Chris?
00:58:42Just another case.
00:58:43That's not it at all.
00:58:45Oh, but it is.
00:58:47You want the details.
00:58:49How I shot him, when, and why.
00:58:52I wanted to discover that you hadn't.
00:58:54When I came to the city, I went to work for Mickey.
00:59:02Through Mickey, I met Charles.
00:59:05And long before I married him, I knew I would kill him.
00:59:08Why?
00:59:10What, you don't know?
00:59:13I want to hear it from you.
00:59:16Men like Charles Truitt get away with murder every day,
00:59:19in one form or another.
00:59:20I know.
00:59:22I convinced Charles that Mickey and I were having an affair.
00:59:29Were you?
00:59:30No.
00:59:32But I convinced him that we were.
00:59:35And the suspicion drove him crazy.
00:59:38So he followed me.
00:59:40That was the night you picked me up in your cab.
00:59:42Do you remember that?
00:59:42I remember.
00:59:47I shot Charles 15 minutes before you and I met
00:59:50in an alley off Carmine.
00:59:55One shot while standing.
00:59:59The second while he was on the ground.
01:00:06Where's the gun, Carrie?
01:00:09You can build your career on this, Chris.
01:00:12I don't want to.
01:00:17Get your evidence and then come back and make your arrest.
01:00:42I don't want to.
01:00:43I don't want to.
01:00:44I don't want to.
01:00:45I don't want to.
01:00:47I don't want to.
01:00:48I don't want to.
01:00:49I don't want to.
01:00:50I don't want to.
01:00:51I don't want to.
01:00:52I don't want to.
01:00:53I don't want to.
01:00:54I don't want to.
01:00:55I don't want to.
01:00:56I don't want to.
01:00:57I don't want to.
01:00:58I don't want to.
01:00:59I don't want to.
01:01:00I don't want to.
01:01:01I don't want to.
01:01:02I don't want to.
01:01:03I don't want to.
01:01:04I don't want to.
01:01:05I don't want to.
01:01:06I don't want to.
01:01:07I don't want to.
01:01:08I don't want to.
01:01:09It's a perfect match.
01:01:28Charlie Truitt, meet the rest of your head.
01:01:30And I heard you found to spend bullet, too, so your case is nearly made.
01:01:34Yeah, well, I don't have the murder weapon yet, but I think I know where to find it.
01:01:37Well, that's too bad.
01:01:39Why do you say that?
01:01:41I read the newspapers.
01:01:43She's quite a looker.
01:01:45I don't usually do this, but I'm rooting against you on this one.
01:01:51There you go. See you later.
01:02:07Amen.
01:02:08Amen.

01:02:23Amen.
01:02:24Amen.
01:02:24Amen.
01:02:38Excuse me, I'm a police officer.
01:02:51A couple of questions I'd like to ask you.
01:02:53About what?
01:02:54About your girlfriend, Laura Flanagan.
01:02:55Hello, darling.
01:03:08Hello, Mickey.
01:03:14I've waited a long time for this, Carrie.
01:03:23I've waited a long time for this, Carrie.
01:03:28So where do you want to do this, huh?
01:03:32Over there.
01:03:48Mickey, you remember a girl about eight years ago named Michelle?
01:03:53No, why would I?
01:03:54Well, this one killed herself, Mickey.
01:03:55Yeah?
01:03:57Yeah.
01:03:58Oh, what a shame.
01:04:00Seems every few years the same thing seems to happen, doesn't it?
01:04:03Did you know that most of the girls that come here are from the local Catholic school for women?
01:04:10What does that tell you, eh?
01:04:12I help pay their tuition, and they get to live out the fantasies that they've been secretly harboring for the past ten years.
01:04:19You think that's funny?
01:04:20Girls get into this out of their own free choice.
01:04:25Then they get all upset with what they've done, don't they?
01:04:28So who's to blame?
01:04:29Well, certainly not me.
01:04:31I mean, that's why it's called suicide, isn't it?
01:04:33See, the victim herself is responsible.
01:04:35Oh, Jesus, you're so bloody beautiful.
01:04:43No.
01:04:45Leave them on your legs.
01:04:46I want to lick every inch of you.
01:04:54Now, come here.
01:04:55I've definitely waited too long for this.
01:04:58It's all right.
01:05:00How do I look in blue, huh, Mickey?
01:05:03Illegal.
01:05:04It's all right.
01:05:28I don't care.
01:05:28Where were you when my sister could have used an honest cop, huh?
01:05:43There's no such thing as an honest cop.
01:05:50Yeah.
01:05:51So you figured it out?
01:05:55One of the girls at Laura Flanagan's memorial service told me.
01:06:01I got the whole story.
01:06:03Chris, come on.
01:06:05You came to this town with only one thing in mind.
01:06:08To avenge your sister's death.
01:06:10And you worked everything into the perfect position.
01:06:12And your husband's share of the club referred to Mickey with his death,
01:06:19so Mickey helped you murder your husband.
01:06:22And then part of the payment for that
01:06:23was that you had to sleep with Mickey.
01:06:27No.
01:06:29That's what Mickey thought.
01:06:31But you had other plans.
01:06:34So you're going to arrest me now?
01:06:36No.
01:06:36No.
01:06:42I need the gun, Carrie.
01:06:44No, Chris.
01:06:45Just stay out of it.
01:06:47Are you kidding?
01:06:50Don't you know how things work in this city?
01:06:55Now.
01:06:58How do things work?
01:07:12Well, she's quite a lady, Mrs. Truett.
01:07:20She cleared you were very involved in me, you know.
01:07:23Well, after all, you and her were an item.
01:07:32Well, there you are, Chris.
01:07:36The world exactly the way you want it.
01:07:39Bad guys lose.
01:07:40Good guys win.
01:07:41Justice prevails.
01:08:11It's colder than a witch's tit out here.
01:08:21You're a hell of a romantic, Cavanaugh.
01:08:23Just give me the statement.
01:08:24You couldn't have chosen someplace inside?
01:08:26Someplace where they serve coffee?
01:08:28I'm a romantic.
01:08:29Oh, come on.
01:08:36You're not going to read it, are you?
01:08:38What, did you guys stick something in here you don't want me to see?
01:08:40It's the same copy that your attorney verified.
01:08:43You miscounted the stash.
01:08:4539 Gs instead of 390.
01:08:46Sign it.
01:08:47What about the 5,000 in my freezer?
01:08:51What five grand?
01:08:52Ah, those knuckleheads in the property room.
01:09:03I can't believe they misplaced such an important piece of evidence in a murder case.
01:09:07The only piece of evidence.
01:09:11Well, if you've got to take so long, maybe you're not doing the right thing, huh?
01:09:14Good guys win, bad guys lose.
01:09:31Justice prevails.
01:09:34Hey, Cavanaugh.
01:09:36We got your pen.
01:09:44We got to take so long, maybe you're not doing the right thing.
01:10:14She was my baby sister, Chris.
01:10:24We used to play in the park together, braid each other's hair.
01:10:29They didn't just kill her, they destroyed her.
01:10:35They made her hate herself so much that she didn't want to live anymore.
01:10:42And I was willing to pay any price.
01:10:44I didn't expect anybody to come in and save me.
01:10:58I did what I had to do.
01:11:03We all do what we have to do.
01:11:05We all do what we have to do.
