0:01:13 > 0:01:15CAR HORNS BLARE
0:01:25 > 0:01:30I don't mind getting up at dawn for court. But when the judge continues it
0:01:30 > 0:01:37cos the lawyer isn't organised, it ticks me off! Oughta be used to it. I never get used to it!
0:01:37 > 0:01:44A man robs a drugstore, six witnesses ID him, the lawyer says he needs to get his case together!
0:01:44 > 0:01:50He doesn't HAVE a case! We'll lock him up. I want to lock the lawyer up. See how he played the judge?
0:01:50 > 0:01:54I don't think Judge Burns noticed. He was napping. CLUNKING
0:01:54 > 0:02:00If Isbecki didn't fill this tank, I'll kill him. It's half-full!
0:02:00 > 0:02:02CAR SPLUTTERS Great(!)
0:02:13 > 0:02:17CAR HORN BEEPS Hey, go around us!
0:02:22 > 0:02:29What do you think? Could be the fuel pump, could be the carburettor, could be the manifold.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33You know what you're talking about? Yeah. Sort of.
0:02:33 > 0:02:40I'm calling the police garage. Great, Mary Beth(!) Some grease monkey will ride up like John Wayne
0:02:40 > 0:02:46and say, "What seems to be the problem, little ladies?" Can it fix the car, Christine?
0:02:47 > 0:02:53"Well, well, well... Two of New York's finest little ladies in distress."
0:02:58 > 0:03:01DOGS BARK
0:03:01 > 0:03:08Everything will be fine... In broad daylight, on 48th Street, he pulls out a rifle and starts shooting.
0:03:08 > 0:03:16We are doing the best we can. Tessie has stopped eating, she won't go for her walk... Poor little thing!
0:03:16 > 0:03:21Yeah, poor Tessie... DOG SQUEALS Hey, I'm just making nice!
0:03:21 > 0:03:26We're trying to do what we can! SQUEALING Sorry, I didn't mean...
0:03:28 > 0:03:35This is the squad room, Monsieur Benoit. Our detectives operate out of here. How you doin', La Guardia?
0:03:35 > 0:03:41Fine. That's my boy. We have an excellent pension programme for our older police officers.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44SQUEALING AND BARKING
0:03:44 > 0:03:49Please, please... I'll take care of everything. I'm a dog-lover, too!
0:03:49 > 0:03:56Everything is going to work out fine. Just give me a little time... Bert... Bert, you got a minute?
0:03:56 > 0:04:03Just a minute, Daniels. ..My best detectives are on it! Community relations are important to us.
0:04:03 > 0:04:10What can I do for you? Monsieur Yves Benoit from the Public Relations Office of the Paris Police.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14M Benoit, Lt Bert Samuels, 14th Precinct. How you doin'?
0:04:14 > 0:04:20Very pleased to meet you. M Benoit is here to observe police procedure in New York, as part of a programme
0:04:20 > 0:04:27of co-operation between Paris and Washington. He asked to observe a typical precinct.
0:04:27 > 0:04:35What better place than the 1-4? I know you'll take care of him, show him how a top-notch team operates.
0:04:35 > 0:04:42I am swamped with cases. I got no time! Terrific. He'll be in the middle of things, front-row seat.
0:04:42 > 0:04:49M Benoit! I'll leave you in Lt Samuels' capable hands. If there's anything he can do, let him know.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53Au revoir, Monsieur. Thank you. Thanks, Bert.
0:04:56 > 0:05:01- Well, uh... would you like a cup of coffee? - That's very kind, Lieutenant.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05There's some over there. Help yourself.
0:05:05 > 0:05:12We could be here for DAYS! Relax. They're sending somebody now. Don't count on it. This is the police!
0:05:12 > 0:05:19I don't want to hear one word about women and cars! Why should he make a crack? These department mechanics
0:05:19 > 0:05:26are all clowns. I took my sports car in, one suggested I turn it in for an automatic station wagon!
0:05:26 > 0:05:29GUNSHOT You hear that?
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Small-calibre pistol. GUNSHOT
0:05:37 > 0:05:43I'm a police officer. What happened? In here! Get inside your apartment. Stay out of the hall!
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Police! Open up!
0:05:51 > 0:05:52POLICE!
0:05:52 > 0:05:57Backup? No, let's go in. We heard gunshots.
0:05:57 > 0:06:02Police officers! Back away from the door, put your hands in the air.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Good. Everybody...! Good.
0:06:05 > 0:06:11We heard gunshots from this apartment. We're making a movie. Anybody fire this gun?
0:06:11 > 0:06:14No, it's just a prop. Just makes noise, no bullets.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Everybody put their hands down.
0:06:25 > 0:06:32Do you have a filming permit from the City? It's not for commercial distribution. It's a student film.
0:06:32 > 0:06:38I have an idea what type of film it is. It's not educational, and it's also illegal, even WITH a permit.
0:06:38 > 0:06:45We're going to walk out of here, pretend we didn't see any of this. Next time, we run you in.
0:06:45 > 0:06:51Does everyone understand that? Hey! Don't you have anything better to do than hassle artists?
0:06:51 > 0:06:57Do you want me to seize the film? We can see how "artistic" it is!
0:06:57 > 0:07:04I thought only MEN cops got a kick out of harassments. We could book everyone... No, Officer. Thank you.
0:07:17 > 0:07:24OK, what was that? We should have made the collar! We book 'em, they get out on their own recognisance,
0:07:24 > 0:07:31it's years to go to trial and they skate out on the First Amendment. Artistic freedom! It's pornography!
0:07:31 > 0:07:37Porno collars are a big waste of time. ..Well, look who finally got here!
0:07:44 > 0:07:47You ready for this?
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Excuse me! We're the officers that made the call!
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Figures.
0:08:07 > 0:08:14Pornography is against the law. The Supreme Court can't even agree on a definition of pornography,
0:08:14 > 0:08:20much less a municipal judge! In this city alone, 17,000 hookers were arrested.
0:08:20 > 0:08:25You guess how many of them they convicted! 12. That's right.
0:08:25 > 0:08:31So it's a lousy collar, it's low-priority. It's a victimless crime. Victimless crime, sure(!)
0:08:31 > 0:08:36They should enforce the law, or repeal it! You got my vote. Now, we got robbers to deal with.
0:08:36 > 0:08:44How can you be sensitive to children and not care about animals? I don't like dogs. Dogs are people, too!
0:08:44 > 0:08:50No, they're dogs - or they'd be called people. A guy's shooting at them. We gotta put him away!
0:08:50 > 0:08:57He used a BB gun. The dogs aren't injured. Why's he shooting at dogs? For not using pooper scoopers.
0:08:57 > 0:09:04Pooper scoopers? Portable waste-disposal system. Nothing like American technology!
0:09:04 > 0:09:10I'm running a check on all the known psycho collars in the last three years.
0:09:10 > 0:09:15Psycho collars? Yeah, fruitcakes with records. How interesting.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18What is the name of that attractive brunette woman?
0:09:18 > 0:09:23You mean the blonde, don't you? No, the other one.
0:09:23 > 0:09:29She's married. She wouldn't even fool around. Det Mary Beth Lacey. Thank you.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Thank you very much.
0:09:34 > 0:09:41I hope I am not disturbing you, Det Lacey. My name is Yves Benoit. How do you do? What can I do for you?
0:09:41 > 0:09:48I'm here from the Paris Police to observe the precinct. Well, welcome. Meet my partner, Christine Cagney.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52How do you do, Mrs Cagney? It's Miss Cagney, or Ms.
0:09:52 > 0:09:58"Detective" would do. Please, excuse me. ..So, do you have many women detectives on the force?
0:09:58 > 0:10:03Not as many as I'd like, but it got better the last four or five years.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18Perhaps you would like to 'ave a drink after work? Oh, thank you!
0:10:18 > 0:10:25Thank you, but my husband, Harvey, will be waiting dinner at home. Of course. Perhaps some other time?
0:10:25 > 0:10:27You never know!
0:10:27 > 0:10:30Excuse me.
0:10:33 > 0:10:38What do you think? About what? About Benoit! He's cute, isn't he?
0:10:38 > 0:10:45Nice teeth, and I didn't see a ring on his finger. Well, Mary Beth, if you're having trouble with Harv...
0:10:45 > 0:10:52I'm talking about YOU! I made it very plain to him I'm married. That has never stopped a Frenchman!
0:10:52 > 0:10:59He was just being polite. I am the soul of discretion. Not a word to Harvey. Christine, stop. Ssh! Stop!
0:10:59 > 0:11:05Mmm! Mmm! Stop it! Cagney, Lacey! Where are those DD5s on the supermarket hold-up?
0:11:05 > 0:11:12The car broke down on the way back. And there was this pornography business. Pornography business?
0:11:12 > 0:11:19There were some shots fired. They were not shots! They were blanks for filming. Anybody injured? No!
0:11:19 > 0:11:26But, since there appeared to be an illegal movie... I get it. Cagney wants to score points on Vice.
0:11:26 > 0:11:33That's not true! I said we'd leave, which is what we did. Next time, we run them in. That's good for you(!)
0:11:33 > 0:11:39But I want to see those reports on my desk. I need 'em two hours ago! Yes, sir.
0:11:46 > 0:11:52I mean, they don't have men with moustaches that keep their socks on any more. I know that.
0:11:52 > 0:11:59Harv and I went to one of those... X-rated movies. We left after ten minutes. How did I guess that(?)
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Oh, don't tell me. You like them!
0:12:02 > 0:12:08No, I... Actually, they're very repetitious, but some of them are OK! OK?
0:12:08 > 0:12:12How can you call garbage like that OK?
0:12:12 > 0:12:17It is not rape, or murder. If people want to watch it, they have a right to! This IS America!
0:12:17 > 0:12:22Well, I don't like it! So we ban it, cos Mary Beth doesn't like it?!
0:12:22 > 0:12:26I don't understand how OTHER people like it!
0:12:26 > 0:12:33Why not? Cos it doesn't happen in a bed in Queens, under the sanctity of holy matrimony?! Wait a minute!
0:12:33 > 0:12:39Who made YOU God? Or the arbiter of everyone else's morals? I didn't mean that. You could've fooled ME!
0:12:39 > 0:12:45It's not a victimless crime. That's all I'm trying to say. It degrades women, it degrades everybody.
0:12:45 > 0:12:52So don't look at 'em. I can't avoid it! It's everywhere - billboards, TV... Half-naked women being used
0:12:52 > 0:12:59to sell anything from cars to cola! Sexual merchandising. "Buy this, you get the woman, too!" It stinks.
0:12:59 > 0:13:04I don't like it, and YOU shouldn't like it, either. Have you finished?
0:13:04 > 0:13:09Yeah, for the moment. Good. I'm going home. ..Good night.
0:13:33 > 0:13:40The dog was with you in your cab? Yeah, for extra protection. I stop to let him out to do his business,
0:13:40 > 0:13:47and, next thing I know, he's barking bloody murder! Did you see who shot at him? No, I thought he was dead.
0:13:47 > 0:13:53We'll canvas the area for witnesses. 59th St and Lexington. You got 200 people you can talk to.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Close your eyes.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Voila!
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Fancy! That's a croissant!
0:14:01 > 0:14:07How nice! Much better, of course, in Paris. The same's true of bagels.
0:14:07 > 0:14:13I mean, they don't taste the same outside New York. It's the water. Have you ever been to Paris?
0:14:13 > 0:14:21Me?! No! Harv and I... We've been to Florida, Atlantic City, the Jersey Shore. That's about it.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25Tell me, where do you get your hair, uh...
0:14:25 > 0:14:28How do you say...? Designed?
0:14:28 > 0:14:33Done. We say "done". Um, a little place on Casino Boulevard.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36It's very alluring.
0:14:36 > 0:14:43HI! Uh, Mr Benoit just brought me a croissant. Wasn't that nice? Good morning, Mr Benoit. Good morning.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47PHONE RINGS I'll get it. Det Lacey, 14th.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Who?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Sir, slow... Just talk slower, sir.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Yeah. Talk slower, sir.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58What?
0:15:02 > 0:15:09Well, did you look closely? All right, just sit tight, don't touch anything. We're on our way. Yeah.
0:15:09 > 0:15:16Remember that apartment we were at yesterday? 732 Clinton? A tenant called. There's a naked man...
0:15:16 > 0:15:19in the...doorway of Apartment 102.
0:15:19 > 0:15:24What's he doing? Nothing. Laying there, face-down, not moving.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Fascinating.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32MAN: All right, move it along here. Back up for us.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43Detectives Cagney and Lacey. ..Anything?
0:15:43 > 0:15:48Nothing on the surface. No bullet holes, knife wounds or bruises.
0:15:48 > 0:15:54Identifying marks? The best I can do is an abdominal scar, right side.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Give us a call after you work him up. You got it.
0:16:03 > 0:16:08Even took the sheets. Won't take long to dust for prints in here!
0:16:08 > 0:16:15We should have made the collar. Could have prevented it. Maybe. He could have died of natural causes.
0:16:15 > 0:16:21Come on - he was naked! So? So, they were making pornographic movies yesterday! Remember?
0:16:21 > 0:16:28People and movie cameras and lights! Where did they all go? How come nobody called an ambulance?
0:16:28 > 0:16:34The answer to that's obvious. I don't think it's obvious! Come on, we'll talk to the Super.
0:16:34 > 0:16:39Like nothing ever happened... Like we imagined the whole thing.
0:16:43 > 0:16:50What did the landlord say? He paid the rent with cash, a month in advance. Get a name? JD Salinger.
0:16:50 > 0:16:57Did you run it? It's a phoney, sir. Salinger was a writer. He was very hot in the '50s.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Yeah?
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Oh, yeah!
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Bert?
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Hello, Bert. Cagney, and uh...?
0:17:08 > 0:17:15Lacey. Lacey, right. How are we doing with our observer? I got him observing Det Isbecki on a dog case.
0:17:15 > 0:17:22Good. Bread-and-butter police work. Speaking of which, why not have our two ladies take him out to lunch,
0:17:22 > 0:17:30someplace typically New York? We'll pick up the tab. We're busy. I'm sure it can wait an hour, Lacey!
0:17:30 > 0:17:36I'm Cagney. Right. ..I want him to go back to Paris with a good idea of how this department operates.
0:17:36 > 0:17:43Going to lunch isn't police work! It IS in Paris, believe me! Those people know how to live.
0:17:43 > 0:17:50When I was there in '81 with the Chief, I put on five pounds! They have pastries that are lethal!
0:17:50 > 0:17:56Could we talk? Sure. ..Keep up the good work. Not now. We are up to our ears... How do you like that?!
0:17:56 > 0:18:03We get ordered to lunch! So why don't you go? I don't want to go! I'd feel guilty!
0:18:03 > 0:18:09What is wrong with lunch?! I'd feel guilty going out when we have this John Doe thing to follow up.
0:18:09 > 0:18:17I'll handle John Doe. YOU talk French! YOU think he's cute! He seems to be VERY taken with you.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20Heads, you go. Tails, I go.
0:18:23 > 0:18:29You go. Two out of three? You are a police officer! If he gets out of line, you cuff him.
0:18:29 > 0:18:35If he offers you a Cognac in his hotel room, play it by ear.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Ha, ha(!)
0:18:38 > 0:18:43You want some onions? You like onions? Oh, please! I like onions.
0:18:45 > 0:18:53And there. Is that enough? Yes. Good. Thank you. Do you come here often? Only when I get a table(!)
0:18:54 > 0:19:02So, Mr Benoit, how do you like New York so far? Call me Yves. And what is your prenom? Your pre-name?
0:19:02 > 0:19:07Mary Elizabeth. Very pretty name. Almost as pretty as you.
0:19:10 > 0:19:17Do you have a family in France? I have two daughters and a wife. Would you like to see a photo? Oh, yeah!
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Let me take this here. Thank you.
0:19:19 > 0:19:25Voila! Are those your daughters? Catherine. Agnes. They're adorable.
0:19:25 > 0:19:30My wife's name, Marie-Louise. She's very lovely. Thank you.
0:19:30 > 0:19:35We have, um...how do you say...? An understanding.
0:19:35 > 0:19:40Thank you. ..She has a lover, who she sees every Tuesday evening.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42How interesting.
0:19:42 > 0:19:50Do you and Henry...? Harvey. Harvey! Harvey. Do you, perhaps, have an understanding, too?
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Harv bowls Tuesday nights. Oh!
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Fascinating!
0:20:00 > 0:20:05Heart attack? Are you going to write it up as natural causes?
0:20:05 > 0:20:09It was very fun. ..I, uh...gotta get to work.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13OK, we'll get back to you if we get a make on him. Thank you.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Hello!
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Hiya.
0:20:22 > 0:20:28That was the medical examiner. The boy died of a heart attack, precipitated by an overdose
0:20:28 > 0:20:35of amyl nitrate. Did he have a heart condition, or was he just doing poppers? No heart condition.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41OK, we got something. Let's talk to somebody in Vice. We got NOTHING!
0:20:41 > 0:20:48A man makes an illegal movie, ODs on a drug that's supposed to be for heart patients, and winds up dead.
0:20:48 > 0:20:54He's left alone and nobody helps him! There's a crime here! Not according to the Statute Book.
0:20:54 > 0:21:01All right, we got a dead John Doe! Wait a minute... What if somebody forced him to take poppers?
0:21:01 > 0:21:05That's murder! We have to talk to the people who made the movie.
0:21:05 > 0:21:11OK, so we go talk to Vice! That's what I said. Come on! Isn't that what I said?!
0:21:16 > 0:21:21We've got a $5-billion-a-year underground industry.
0:21:21 > 0:21:28Cash transactions, no records, dummy corporations, tax shelters... Things of that type.
0:21:28 > 0:21:35Who makes these films? Most of it's mob-financed. There are some straight investors, who don't care.
0:21:35 > 0:21:42We're trying to ID a John Doe who was acting in a film. Not easy. Most don't use their real names.
0:21:42 > 0:21:48Some have a dozen. He overdosed on amyl nitrate. Could someone force him to take it? Hard to prove.
0:21:48 > 0:21:55But it happens, doesn't it? Yeah. Some directors will do anything to get a film shot. Can you help us?
0:21:55 > 0:22:02Maybe. I'll, uh...run some of the films for you. A lot of these actors work over and over again.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06If you... Excuse me. If you see somebody you recognise...
0:22:08 > 0:22:14..we'll match him to the film. We got files on most of the studios. Excuse me. We appreciate your help.
0:22:14 > 0:22:21I gotta warn you, though, there's not a hell of a lot of close-ups... on their faces. Thank you.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Pretty monotonous, isn't it? Who's the guy?
0:22:31 > 0:22:37His name on the credits is Randy Stud. He also works under the name of Johnny Hunk.
0:22:37 > 0:22:44His real name is Stanley Perlmother. We collared him twice. He walked both times, First Amendment.
0:22:44 > 0:22:51What do you think? It isn't him. Look - he's so indifferent. It's like another day at the office!
0:22:51 > 0:22:56To him it is. $100 a day, maybe a little coke on the side.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02I'm going outside for a minute, OK?
0:23:15 > 0:23:17How you doin'?
0:23:26 > 0:23:29Can you freeze that?
0:23:39 > 0:23:44Hey! You want to come and take a look? I think I found the woman.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51Well, that's 12c. "Discover a way they could get six pennies from 12c."
0:23:51 > 0:23:54KNOCK ON DOOR
0:23:56 > 0:24:00Who is it? Linda Mack? Yeah.
0:24:00 > 0:24:01Police.
0:24:10 > 0:24:15You might remember us from yesterday. 732 Clinton.
0:24:15 > 0:24:20What is it? We want to talk to you, Mrs Mack. That's my...my daughter.
0:24:22 > 0:24:28Would you be more comfortable talking at the station? All right...come in.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Hiya!
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Excuse me. ..Jessie, why don't you go in my room and watch TV?
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Come on, it's OK.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49Uh...sit down. Thank you.
0:24:51 > 0:24:56Fractions, huh? I got a kid in the fourth grade, too.
0:24:58 > 0:25:05What is this? Mrs Mack, one of the men that you were with in that apartment yesterday turned up dead.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09He OD'd on poppers, died of a heart attack.
0:25:09 > 0:25:15Nobody called an ambulance, or a doctor. He was found laying in the doorway.
0:25:15 > 0:25:21Anybody force him to take those poppers? I don't know. I wasn't there. How come?
0:25:21 > 0:25:29I finished that film yesterday. What did they do today? I don't know! I was in rehearsal for another film.
0:25:29 > 0:25:36They probably got somebody else to work with him. Do you know who he was? Bill something.
0:25:36 > 0:25:42I don't think that's his real name. I never worked with him before. And the director? HIS name? Jim. Jack.
0:25:42 > 0:25:48I dunno. I met him at a party a few weeks ago. What do you want from me?
0:25:48 > 0:25:54We want to find out the circumstances of the man's death! I wasn't there, so I don't know. OK?
0:25:59 > 0:26:05Chase this up, will you? ..You got the name of the porno distributor, you go after him - what do you get?
0:26:05 > 0:26:12A criminal-negligence homicide - IF you prove foreknowledge. He wasn't there when it happened!
0:26:12 > 0:26:18I still want to serve him, sir. So you serve him. Then what? Two years from now, you go to court,
0:26:18 > 0:26:25half the witnesses are out of state, and you got some little assistant DA at $25,000 a year arguing liability
0:26:25 > 0:26:31against the hotsy-totsy law firm that he's got on retainer! THEN what?! Then we'll have done our job.
0:26:31 > 0:26:36Ah! ..Hey, what's the matter with this machine?
0:26:43 > 0:26:45Thanks, Josie.
0:26:49 > 0:26:56Lacey, why don't you help out Isbecki and Petrie on the dog case? Oh, that's THEIR collar, sir.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00That's very funny! Their COLLAR! Unintentional, sir.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Mary Beth...
0:27:06 > 0:27:09I think our John Doe just got a name. Yeah?
0:27:09 > 0:27:12Missing Persons sent 'em over.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15Parents?
0:27:15 > 0:27:21Mm-hm. Mr and Mrs Harris. Their son, Norman... He's not called them in a week.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25The description matches? Right down to the appendectomy scar.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Oh, Lord...
0:27:30 > 0:27:37How old was he? 19. Honours student at Brooklyn College, captain of the swim team...
0:27:37 > 0:27:42and his parents say that he "did a little acting", when he had time.
0:27:47 > 0:27:53Magnoliaphyta rosalis. Excellent specimen. It's gorgeous! And therapeutic.
0:27:53 > 0:28:00Pliny the Elder lists 32 remedies for illnesses - made from rose petals. Who gave it to her? Harvey!
0:28:00 > 0:28:04Chateau Perigueux '66?! Hardly Harvey's style!
0:28:04 > 0:28:09Morning! Morning! Hiya. Hi! Look what someone left on your desk.
0:28:09 > 0:28:14Probably one of your many admirers, got the wrong desk. It has a note.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23It's in French.
0:28:23 > 0:28:27Want me to translate it? Uh, no. No, thanks.
0:28:28 > 0:28:33Lacey, uh...you want to serve the porno distributor? Yes, sir!
0:28:33 > 0:28:36There it is. Thank you, sir.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38So...do it!
0:28:38 > 0:28:42Thank you, sir! That's good. Let's go!
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Come on, let's go! OK!
0:28:47 > 0:28:54Another witness to interview, Isbecki(?) Hey... You got a lovely little red leash.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57DOG WHIMPERS Sit, sit, sit...
0:29:00 > 0:29:02Good dog...
0:29:04 > 0:29:07Muffin. M-U-F-F...
0:29:07 > 0:29:10Victor! What are you doing?
0:29:10 > 0:29:17Victim profile report. ..I-N. Where's the owner? She's out parking her car.
0:29:17 > 0:29:23Victor, you're losing it. OK, Muffin...what went down out there?
0:29:23 > 0:29:29This is garbage. It's a judgment against YOU, Mr Belden. Reckless endangerment and negligence.
0:29:29 > 0:29:36You're kiddin'. A man died making one of your films. And you want to go against me? Yes. Lots of luck(!)
0:29:36 > 0:29:43As a distributor, you may be liable for criminal-negligence homicide. Sure(!) Listen, you want to serve me
0:29:43 > 0:29:50for distributing obscene material, you at least got a court date. See? Two dozen obscenity judgments.
0:29:50 > 0:29:56Every one will be thrown out. THIS won't even go to trial. We'll let the DA's office decide that.
0:29:56 > 0:30:04They're going to love this one(!) Criminal-negligence homicide! Who supplies you with the films?
0:30:04 > 0:30:10I don't have to answer that. We can subpoena that information. You want subpoenas? Got a drawer full.
0:30:10 > 0:30:16Do you want us to let Organised Crime look into this? Oh, come on! Does this look like a mob operation?
0:30:16 > 0:30:23Ladies, I'll save you a lot of time. Mermaid Productions is legit. 100%. You want to subpoena my books?
0:30:23 > 0:30:30They're clean enough to eat off. We want to locate the people making a film at 732 Clinton.
0:30:30 > 0:30:36You want to go watch a little(?) You pay these people, don't you? I pay them very well.
0:30:36 > 0:30:43So you have records, employee forms, W4S. W4s? Yesterday was payday. I got a drawer full of them.
0:30:43 > 0:30:50IRS had me down for a tax audit. My returns are clean. Congratulations. Want to check my rest rooms?
0:30:50 > 0:30:57I'm sure they're very clean, Mr Belden. Vincent Moslovsky. 79, West 43rd. He's the director?
0:30:57 > 0:31:04He calls himself a director. He's a flake. Who's this guy? Carpenter. What's HE do? Electrician.
0:31:04 > 0:31:09This guy? Calls himself an actor. This one? Calls himself a grip. And? The grip's friend.
0:31:09 > 0:31:17Who's that? He's a cousin of the first grip. You got two grips? Mary Beth... You got actors? Yeah.
0:31:17 > 0:31:24At the bottom, you got actors, actresses... At the bottom, you got actresses. ..OK, all right.
0:31:24 > 0:31:31It happened so suddenly. We were right in the middle of a scene, and this guy starts gasping for breath.
0:31:31 > 0:31:38Suddenly, he just keels over! We thought he was kidding! Why didn't you call an ambulance? He was dead!
0:31:38 > 0:31:45Mr Moslovsky, if he was dead, how did he drag himself out the door?! I don't know. We panicked.
0:31:45 > 0:31:52Nobody said a word. We packed up and we split. And left him to die. No, I thought he was already dead.
0:31:52 > 0:31:59Whose idea was it for him to take the poppers? Not ME! Not to make your film better? I don't do drugs.
0:31:59 > 0:32:05I asked if someone forced HIM to do it! I didn't make him take aimies. I'm not responsible. Who IS?
0:32:05 > 0:32:12I'm a film-maker! I stay behind the camera and say, "Action!" I don't participate. I just film it.
0:32:12 > 0:32:20Oh, I get it! He don't participate. He photographs it! I'm an artist. I don't make value judgments.
0:32:20 > 0:32:27You decided Norman Harris was dead, and left him on the floor. That's a value judgment! Give me a break.
0:32:27 > 0:32:34I really don't need this type of hassle! If you knew how difficult it was to try to shoot a film...
0:32:34 > 0:32:41I am talking about ANY film! Who else was there? My electrician, my sound man, two grips,
0:32:41 > 0:32:48and the co-star. I want their names and addresses. I don't HAVE them! Nobody uses their real names!
0:32:48 > 0:32:53This film you're editing - is this from Tuesday? Yeah!
0:32:53 > 0:32:58Would you like to see a little bit? There's a fabulous close-up here.
0:32:59 > 0:33:03Listen, what I did was, I backlit her face,
0:33:03 > 0:33:08to bring out the cheekbones. We've seen enough, thank you.
0:33:08 > 0:33:13Wait - you haven't seen the camera move yet. Is this yesterday? Yeah.
0:33:13 > 0:33:18I come in real tight, and I hold the frame. She WAS there Tuesday.
0:33:28 > 0:33:35Let's go talk to her tomorrow. Mary Beth, we served Belden with the judgment. We know what happened.
0:33:35 > 0:33:42He was not forced to take poppers. I want to know why she lied. Like a lot of people in this business,
0:33:42 > 0:33:49she didn't want to get involved! Can you take the car back and sign me out? Maybe I can salvage dinner.
0:33:49 > 0:33:56Yeah, OK, but I'm going to see Linda Mack in the morning. What IS it with you? Some personal vendetta?!
0:33:56 > 0:34:01Hey, taxi! Who's the one that's always saying, "Make the collar"?
0:34:01 > 0:34:07We made the damn collar. We served the papers! We can't be responsible for everyone's morality!
0:34:07 > 0:34:14Taxi! I'm not a prude. I think sex is beautiful and important, not a package that's sold like potatoes.
0:34:14 > 0:34:21I'm sick of this "victimless crime" thing. We got a lot of victims. Norman is the only one that died,
0:34:21 > 0:34:27but Linda Mack has a child, doesn't know what her mother does. That's a victim. ..Oh, off-duty.
0:34:27 > 0:34:34Isbecki is a victim if he thinks women just want someone in tight pants. Every poor slob that pays $5
0:34:34 > 0:34:40and thinks what he sees on screen is what a woman wants in bed...is a victim! We got a lot of victims.
0:34:40 > 0:34:47I got a crazy idea I want to keep going till somebody tells me why nobody called the paramedics
0:34:47 > 0:34:52when the kid is dying of a heart attack! So, are you with me here?
0:34:54 > 0:34:59Yeah. Thank you, Chris. I appreciate that.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01OK.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03Have a good time, huh?
0:35:04 > 0:35:07I'll see you tomorrow.
0:35:16 > 0:35:22Cherie, j'etait tres occupe. Je n'ai pas eu un moment libre depuis mon arrive.
0:35:23 > 0:35:29Mais non! Je t'assure, ma cherie! Je ne pense qu'a toi.
0:35:38 > 0:35:44Hiya! I know, Harvey, I know! I got hung-up on this porno thing.
0:35:44 > 0:35:50Yeah. I already signed out, OK? Keep the lasagne warm. ..OK. Love you.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53Bon soir!
0:35:53 > 0:35:57Oh, hi. Is Harry...bowling tonight? Harvey.
0:35:57 > 0:36:04No, he's home. He's keeping my lasagne warm. A coincidence. I was just speaking to my wife in Paris.
0:36:04 > 0:36:10Must be late in Paris! It's 2.30 in the morning. She's keeping the lasagne warm for ME!
0:36:17 > 0:36:23We have an old saying in France. "Marriage is so difficult that it takes three people to make it work."
0:36:23 > 0:36:30You don't say! You know, I have not yet taken a horse-and-buggy ride in Central Park.
0:36:30 > 0:36:35It's a lovely evening. There's a touch of spring in the air.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40I must be with you tonight.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Oh, Yves...
0:36:43 > 0:36:47I never thought anybody would say that to me.
0:36:47 > 0:36:52I cannot believe that no-one has ever said that to YOU before.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54Oh, Yves...
0:36:54 > 0:36:57you got the wrong lady.
0:36:57 > 0:37:02And, on top of that, your timing is crummy. Crummy?
0:37:02 > 0:37:07Crummy? "Crummy" is an American word for the type of case I'm on.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09Anyways, uh...
0:37:09 > 0:37:12thank you very much.
0:37:12 > 0:37:17You...you are so nice. I thank you for the flower, and the French...
0:37:17 > 0:37:24I gotta go now. Uh, bye...con dios. You're confident the lasagne will still be warm when you get home?
0:37:24 > 0:37:30Oh, no, I don't like to heat it up. It dries out. The cheese on top gets kind of rubbery.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32Pity.
0:37:32 > 0:37:36It really is much better the next day.
0:37:37 > 0:37:41KNOCK ON DOOR
0:37:41 > 0:37:45Mrs Mack? Who is it? Detectives Cagney and Lacey.
0:37:45 > 0:37:50Leave me alone! Open up, ma'am, or we'll come back with a warrant.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52CHAIN JANGLES
0:37:56 > 0:38:00What happened to you? Tell us about the beating.
0:38:00 > 0:38:07It was just another scene. Got out of hand. Director kept telling the guy, "More, more!" Moslovsky?
0:38:07 > 0:38:10No. We got that film yesterday.
0:38:14 > 0:38:19Different film, different director. And you couldn't stop it? I tried!
0:38:19 > 0:38:25But he kept telling the guy to hit me harder, and saying, "Beautiful!" Dear God!
0:38:25 > 0:38:28It's going to sell a lot of tickets.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32Mrs Mack, why did you lie to us about Tuesday?
0:38:32 > 0:38:36I don't remember Tuesday. It was the day Norman Harris died.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43I gave him CPR...
0:38:43 > 0:38:49but it didn't work. So you DID do something? Didn't do any good, so we just got the hell out.
0:38:49 > 0:38:56Was the camera rolling? I don't know. What DO you know? Can you tell us anything? No! That's it!
0:38:58 > 0:39:04Let's get out of here. ..Are you going to file charges against the guy who beat you up?
0:39:04 > 0:39:08And the director. It'd be the last time I worked.
0:39:08 > 0:39:16You'd let yourself get beat up and it's business as usual? Can YOU pay my rent? ..May I ask you something?
0:39:16 > 0:39:23You have a daughter. What will you tell HER? That I got mugged. You got worse than mugged, lady!
0:39:23 > 0:39:26A man assaulted you, another man photographed it.
0:39:26 > 0:39:31People will watch it in a movie theatre! How d'you feel about that?
0:39:34 > 0:39:37OK, how do you feel about this?
0:39:37 > 0:39:44Some guy sees your film. He thinks, "That's what women really want," and goes and rapes your daughter.
0:39:44 > 0:39:50Leave her out of this! She's IN it, whether you like it or not! We ALL are. You could charge them.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54You could make a difference. It's not going to stop it!
0:40:02 > 0:40:07So, Linda, did you like being raped today? I wasn't raped. Really(?)
0:40:08 > 0:40:15I was beaten up. You were raped, lady! You submitted to something against your will! You were raped!
0:40:15 > 0:40:22I got paid for it, didn't I? Lucky you(!) What happens next time, when the director doesn't yell "Cut!"
0:40:22 > 0:40:30and the guy beats you to death? Now your kid is an orphan. How much is THAT worth to you? Mom, I'm home!
0:40:33 > 0:40:35Mom, what happened? It's OK.
0:40:35 > 0:40:38Did you hurt her?
0:40:40 > 0:40:43No, Jessie. They're cops.
0:40:43 > 0:40:45It's OK.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47Mommy's fine.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50I just had a little...
0:40:50 > 0:40:52accident.
0:41:03 > 0:41:09That is one tough lady. I don't understand how she can live with it. Forget it, Mary Beth.
0:41:09 > 0:41:16No, I can't forget it, Christine. I go home every night and, no matter how bad a day it was, I think,
0:41:16 > 0:41:23"At least we took a little inch of crud off the city." It'll be back tomorrow, but we're treading water.
0:41:23 > 0:41:28Know what I feel like right now? I feel like the crud is winning!
0:41:38 > 0:41:45Do you want to talk about it? No. You've been walking around here all night like you want to slug someone.
0:41:46 > 0:41:50I'm tired, Harv. I'm going to go to sleep.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59You know, I can make you feel better.
0:41:59 > 0:42:03No. Guaranteed. We don't have to say a word.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06I said no, Harv. No means no.
0:42:06 > 0:42:11No doesn't always mean no! Well, tonight, it means no!
0:42:11 > 0:42:14It's this porno case, huh?
0:42:14 > 0:42:16Yeah. ..Hmm?
0:42:16 > 0:42:21Hey. Hey... I don't want to talk about it, Harv. Did you make the collar?
0:42:21 > 0:42:27I don't want to talk about it! No means no! So I get shut out? Yes!
0:42:27 > 0:42:29That's great(!)
0:42:31 > 0:42:36Mmm? Harvey, would you just get over your side of the bed? A little hug?
0:42:36 > 0:42:41No, Harv, nothing! Get over your side of the bed and go to sleep!
0:42:41 > 0:42:43SHE SOBS
0:43:02 > 0:43:09These witness statements from the hold-up are contradictory. Yeah. Let's re-question the employees.
0:43:09 > 0:43:14It's been nearly a week. Mmm. Maybe someone's memory got better. Maybe.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23I'm afraid I have to say goodbye.
0:43:23 > 0:43:28Oh, so soon? I have business in Paris tomorrow. Well, bon voyage.
0:43:28 > 0:43:32Farewell, Mary Elizabeth. So long, Yves.
0:43:32 > 0:43:40Perhaps some other time? I don't think so, but I hope Marie-Louise kept her lasagne warm for you.
0:43:40 > 0:43:45Will you please tell Herbert that he is a very lucky fellow? I will.
0:43:58 > 0:43:59Herbert?!
0:44:15 > 0:44:21The dog collar. Looks like a tough customer! To use your expression,
0:44:21 > 0:44:26maybe we got ONE up on the crud today! Yeah, maybe. Let's go.
0:44:28 > 0:44:35Maybe we'll get lucky. Maybe. Maybe some guy woke up this morning with a complete description of the perp.
0:44:35 > 0:44:42Yeah! Maybe he'll do the paperwork, too! And the bad guy will go to jail. That'd be nice! Yes.
0:44:42 > 0:44:46Can you tell me where I'd find Detectives Cagney and Lacey?
0:44:58 > 0:45:01Maybe we're TWO up on the crud.
