The audience liked it. See what the vultures say. The critics will love it. It's a wonderful play. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:31 | |
So was Low Maintenance Man - the reviews said it was derivative, pretentious... | 0:01:31 | 0:01:38 | |
Those were the best ones. I thought COPS were paranoid. It's paranoia palace. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:44 | |
Ooh... Listen, if I start drinking too much at this party and insult the investors, | 0:01:44 | 0:01:52 | |
will you arrest me? I'll take you into custody! | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
Christine Cagney - defender of peace and public morals - we thank you. | 0:01:55 | 0:02:01 | |
Here's to the good things in life. I'll drink to that. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
I'm glad that's over. I HATE first nights. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
Come on, you were wonderful. Oh, sweetheart. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 | |
What's wrong? | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
Stop the car! What's the matter? That man's working over that woman. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:46 | |
Can't you turn away? He has a knife. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
We do have a first night... Hey! Hey! Police! | 0:02:49 | 0:02:53 | |
Hold it! ..Are you all right? I guess you better follow them. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:59 | |
Get out of my way! Look out! | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
I don't believe this. Get out the way! | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
Look out! | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
Hold it! OK, baby - be cool! Get up! | 0:03:12 | 0:03:16 | |
Against the car! Be cool, babe. Against the CAR! Call for back up. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:22 | |
I'm innocent. Sure. I'm just doing my job. Roughing up women? | 0:03:22 | 0:03:28 | |
You want some money? Quiet! I got some money. Keep your mouth shut! | 0:03:28 | 0:03:33 | |
Come on, baby... | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
To the good things in life(!) | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
Baby, I'm innocent. UH! | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
..Be with you in a minute. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
What? Is that meat? No, but it gives you all... Vegetable? Yes, grains. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:57 | |
..Hey. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:58 | |
Hey, how was the big night? | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
It started out great, then it went downhill. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
The big opening night party? When we got there, it was over. What? | 0:04:05 | 0:04:10 | |
There was an assault and I was stuck for two hours booking a pimp! Josh must have been disappointed. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:18 | |
He was a good sport about it until the guy threw up on his tuxedo. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:23 | |
Oh, Christine... | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
GIGGLES Sorry. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:29 | |
Cagney! Nice outfit. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
Thanks. I liked it yesterday, too. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
What? Had yourself a little sleepover date? | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
Oh, kiss off, Isbecki! ..I wore my yellow sweater yesterday, didn't I? | 0:04:41 | 0:04:46 | |
Cagney, Lacey - end of hen party! | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
A baby was abandoned at St Joseph's. Find a line on the mother. Yes, sir. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:55 | |
We get a lot of abandoned babies here. The mothers are young - | 0:04:59 | 0:05:05 | |
15, 16, no money, no job. But this woman - she was no kid. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:10 | |
She had plenty of money - jewellery and clothes you'd die for and cash. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:15 | |
She posted five $100 dollar bills in advance. She brought the baby to see the doctor? | 0:05:15 | 0:05:21 | |
Complaining of lethargy - said the baby was too quiet. I wish I had that problem with my boys! | 0:05:21 | 0:05:28 | |
Dr Lewis examined the baby. She's totally deaf. Oh... | 0:05:28 | 0:05:33 | |
Just then, the mother went to the ladies' room and never came back. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:38 | |
Where's the little girl? Child welfare took her. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
Have you tried calling the mother? Yes. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
The number on the admitting form was Information at Port Authority. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:51 | |
Thank you. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
The address and work reference were fictitious too? The whole form. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:59 | |
The mother planned it. If the doctor confirmed the baby was deaf, she'd dump her. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:06 | |
Nice(!) I think I've seen everything, then I get a surprise. Oh, are you something? | 0:06:06 | 0:06:13 | |
So, what happens now? She'll stay here. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
Aaw! What is a gorgeous girl like you gonna do in a dump like this? | 0:06:16 | 0:06:22 | |
We do our best with limited funds. No offence. ..But YOU ought to be in pictures. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:28 | |
If you can find the parents and a judge to declare them unfit, | 0:06:28 | 0:06:34 | |
then we'll put her up for adoption | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
and hopefully find a family for a handicapped child. Lots of ifs. A foster home's free in two weeks. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:44 | |
Two weeks! That's a long time. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
What do you say, lovely? You wanna come home with me? | 0:06:47 | 0:06:51 | |
You gotta be kidding. Back off - I saw her first. It's our decision. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:56 | |
Mrs Rosenmeyer - would it be OK? It's VERY irregular. Oh, come on - | 0:06:56 | 0:07:02 | |
you've got some latitude. I'm a police officer | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
with a husband and kids. We're only talking two weeks here. Well... | 0:07:06 | 0:07:12 | |
I'll have to ask my supervisor. Tell her I was Den Mother for 17 Cub Scouts for a year. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:19 | |
(Are you out of your mind?!) | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
What's the matter? You've got enough - you've got two kids of your own and your work! | 0:07:22 | 0:07:28 | |
I won't fall down on the job. That's not what I meant. Then what? It's unprofessional. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:35 | |
Unprofessional? Yes. She's afraid of what the guys'll say. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:40 | |
Coleman and Isbecki would never do that. She's worried we'll look like bleeding-heart women. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:47 | |
You wanna get off it? See? | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
This is not the pound! You're not taking home a Christmas puppy. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:57 | |
This is a little, real person here! | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
I'm aware of that. Who'll take care of her while you're at work? Harve. ..Wait till you meet him. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:06 | |
Don't you think you should ask him? | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
Harvey loves babies. He doesn't have anything to do until the renovation next month. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:15 | |
She's not going to be any trouble. No trouble at all. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
Sure... | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
DRAMATIC MUSIC ON TV | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
ROARING Harve? | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
Yo! Hiya. Hiya, baby. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:38 | |
It's me. Don't look. I got something. Turn around, OK? | 0:08:38 | 0:08:42 | |
Turn around. OK, OK... | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
OK... | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
Hiya, men! | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
BOTH: Hi, Mom! I've got a surprise. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:53 | |
The show's almost over. Is it an Atari? Wow! | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
Get over here! | 0:08:57 | 0:08:59 | |
Stand by your father. OK? Ready? | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
Ta-da! | 0:09:04 | 0:09:06 | |
Ta-da-da...! A baby? Oh, gross! | 0:09:06 | 0:09:09 | |
Where'd you get her? She was abandoned and has agreed to stay with us for two weeks | 0:09:09 | 0:09:16 | |
until she gets a foster home. What's its name? I dunno. Atari? | 0:09:16 | 0:09:21 | |
No. ..Isn't she something? I knew you'd love her. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:25 | |
Say hi to Harve... Huh? | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 | |
Hand her over. Come on, Harve, let me hold her. Let me hold her. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:35 | |
HE BABY TALKS | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
Mmm... | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
I couldn't explain this to Christine. What's that? | 0:09:44 | 0:09:48 | |
That I miss holding a little person like this in my arms. She's a doll. Oh - diaper! | 0:09:48 | 0:09:54 | |
I'll get it. ..Harve? Hmm? It's my birthday next month. | 0:09:54 | 0:10:00 | |
I know. Like vintage wine - better every year. Huh, yeah(!) | 0:10:00 | 0:10:06 | |
But not any younger. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
We don't have forever, lover. If we want another baby, we'll have to do it soon. Wanna practise? | 0:10:08 | 0:10:16 | |
I don't know. It's a big decision. I keep going round and round. I don't know for sure. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:23 | |
I thought she could help us make up our mind, baby. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:27 | |
Kind of like a trial run, huh? | 0:10:27 | 0:10:30 | |
Harvey...get the diaper. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
Diaper, diaper, diaper! | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
Yeah... No, Petite Jolie - J-O-L-I-E. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:51 | |
Yes, they're the manufacturers. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
Yeah. OK, I'll wait. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
Where's the cops? I'm a taxpayer! | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
(Josh!) | 0:11:13 | 0:11:15 | |
..Uh... Oh, OK. Thank you anyway. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
Hi! | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
Do I take it that you've forgotten our lunch date? | 0:11:24 | 0:11:29 | |
Lunch...? No, no, I didn't forget lunch! You forgot. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:33 | |
I didn't. What kind of a bloody twit do you think I am? | 0:11:33 | 0:11:38 | |
Sorry. I've been so involved with this case. The only lead I have on this baby is her clothes. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:45 | |
Listen, let me take you away from all this - | 0:11:45 | 0:11:48 | |
just for an hour. I can't. I'm up to my bangs in this. Come on. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:53 | |
Why not? | 0:12:00 | 0:12:02 | |
What are partners for? | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
Take a seat. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
I'm not going to beat around the bush, Lacey. I don't think it's such a hot idea. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:25 | |
Sir...? The baby. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
Give it back before you're in too deep. This is experience talking. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:34 | |
Don't get involved personally in a case. I think I can handle it, sir. Good... I thought I could too. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:42 | |
An assault victim. We dated each other for a while and I... | 0:12:42 | 0:12:47 | |
Well, look - Lacey, can you handle it when you have to give the kid back? I'm set for it. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:58 | |
You got all the answers. Just don't let it interfere with your work! | 0:12:58 | 0:13:04 | |
No, sir. Thank you, sir. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
Champagne for lunch? What's the occasion? Big news. What? | 0:13:10 | 0:13:16 | |
..Sorry, I'm on duty. You're not going to toast my news with water? | 0:13:16 | 0:13:21 | |
What the hell - gimme a splash! ..What is it? | 0:13:22 | 0:13:26 | |
I've just signed a deal to do a new play in London this spring. That's fabulous! | 0:13:26 | 0:13:32 | |
Break a leg! Cheers, kid. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
So... | 0:13:38 | 0:13:39 | |
How about it? How about what? | 0:13:39 | 0:13:43 | |
Well... Tower of London, Hyde Park, walks along the Thames... Wait a second. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:50 | |
Don't turn me down till you've heard the deal. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
Since my divorce, I decided to keep everything light, and I've been hard to get close to. | 0:13:53 | 0:14:00 | |
Well, I'm not the easiest person to get close to, either. Well... | 0:14:00 | 0:14:06 | |
London is the chance for us to get closer. But I have a job. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:12 | |
It's my career. Don't give it up - just come over for a few weeks. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:17 | |
I don't get vacation time till July. You could arrange something? | 0:14:17 | 0:14:23 | |
It doesn't work that way. I have a partner, a caseload. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:28 | |
With this case, I can't just fly off to London! | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
I wouldn't be very good company right now. How much of yourself can you give to your work? | 0:14:33 | 0:14:40 | |
Don't you think you ought to live a little? You don't understand - I love my work. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:47 | |
How can you love chasing after pimps? | 0:14:47 | 0:14:51 | |
In a long dress and high heels? It's grim and depressing. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:55 | |
Last night at 3am you didn't find me grim. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
(No.) | 0:15:02 | 0:15:04 | |
Better get you back. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
..Check, please. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
What kind of milk are you using for the formula? Milk from a cow. Goat - | 0:15:13 | 0:15:18 | |
it's closer to human milk and you'll have fewer allergies later. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:23 | |
And don't neglect a good healthy dose of liquid kelp. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:27 | |
Kelp? It's processed seaweed - full of minerals. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:31 | |
And it simulates the sea-like in utero environment. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:36 | |
And acidophilus... for the promotion of friendly flora and to encourage elimination. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:43 | |
This baby doesn't need that encouragement. Ask Harve. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:47 | |
Sorry, Paul, I gotta go. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:50 | |
How was lunch? Why is nothing easy? We gotta go. I found the store. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:55 | |
What do you mean? Josh is the most exciting man I've ever met. That's a problem? | 0:15:55 | 0:16:02 | |
He thinks my work is grim. He's observant. We'll talk in the car. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:08 | |
Is it not the most precious? All hand work - even the buttonholes. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:16 | |
Very nice. Do you remember who purchased this? Yes, the mother. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:21 | |
She adored this combination. It's also a favourite of mine. She bought everything in those colours. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:29 | |
You have an address on her? I'll check. | 0:16:29 | 0:16:33 | |
This is cute. Isn't this adorable? Oh, yeah. Yeah. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:39 | |
My niece would look great in this. There's no price tags on anything. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:44 | |
I have it. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:47 | |
Thank you. Mrs Scott Jamieson? Uh-huh. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
I'll check the address. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
These are cute. How much are these here? | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
$24. For six? | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
For one. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:02 | |
Uh-huh... | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
The kid has got enough of these for now. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:08 | |
OK, thank you. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |
Park Avenue. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
That figures. Are we going? $24! Michael's entire layette didn't cost $24! | 0:17:14 | 0:17:21 | |
Michael got the better deal. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:26 | |
And you remembered to warm up the formula? ..Oh, come on, Harve - I'm not treating you like a bimbo! | 0:17:29 | 0:17:36 | |
Of course he remembered. And Harve, kelp - liquid kelp. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:41 | |
K-E-L-P. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:43 | |
I dunno, Harve... A health food store. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:47 | |
Yeah, OK... OK. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
Kiss that little lovely for me. Bye. Yes, Mr Coffman? | 0:17:49 | 0:17:54 | |
You'll be delighted to know that my clients, the Jamiesons, will co-operate 100%. How thoughtful(!) | 0:17:54 | 0:18:01 | |
We don't need their co-operation to make this charge stick. There's no abandonment. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:08 | |
The baby left at St Joseph's is not my clients' child. What are you trying to do? | 0:18:08 | 0:18:14 | |
Do you have any idea how hard it is to adopt a white, healthy infant? | 0:18:14 | 0:18:20 | |
We heard. The Jamiesons have been trying to adopt for three years. Finally, they found a source. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:27 | |
They were promised a perfect child. But they found her to be defective. Deaf. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:33 | |
That baby can't hear. Otherwise she's perfect. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:38 | |
They don't regard deafness a slight imperfection. They dumped her. Mrs Jamieson left her in a hospital. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:45 | |
How kind(!) Why are you wasting our time? | 0:18:45 | 0:18:49 | |
It's still abandonment with an adopted child. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
They never legally adopted the child. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:56 | |
It's difficult to effectuate a certain type of adoption in this city. Where did she come from? | 0:18:56 | 0:19:02 | |
They purchased her from a baby broker... The price was $35,000...cash. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:09 | |
Now, can we come to some sort of accommodation? | 0:19:13 | 0:19:17 | |
Sir, we got the name of the baby broker, we got the... Jamiesons. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:22 | |
They're gonna co-operate. Why can't we make the collar? I checked with the DA's office, | 0:19:22 | 0:19:29 | |
and they're not happy with the case. What do they want? | 0:19:29 | 0:19:33 | |
They want the natural parents of the baby that the broker has placed. So, we get criminal solicitation | 0:19:33 | 0:19:40 | |
AND the social services law violation. Legal smokescreens! I don't make up the laws. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:48 | |
I agree with them, so we're meeting the Assistant DA - | 0:19:48 | 0:19:52 | |
9am, the three of us tomorrow. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
Tomorrow? You can give her a hard time instead of me. | 0:19:55 | 0:20:00 | |
I can't go tomorrow. Why not? | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
It's supposed to be my day off. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
Josh rented a car and we were going to go away. What will I tell him? | 0:20:08 | 0:20:13 | |
That you have to work. You know how understanding he is about my work(!) | 0:20:13 | 0:20:18 | |
Christine, I hate to discourage you about a man, but maybe he's the wrong one for you. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:25 | |
Maybe everyone's the wrong one for me. Well, it must be ME. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:31 | |
I mean, if enough people tell you you're drunk, lie down. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:36 | |
You got to make compromises to be with a man. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:40 | |
A lot of compromises! | 0:20:40 | 0:20:43 | |
God, I hate compromises! | 0:20:44 | 0:20:47 | |
W P Jarvis - attorney. We've been trying to build a case against him. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:56 | |
The Jamiesons will testify that they purchased a baby from him. A jury might not convict on that. | 0:20:56 | 0:21:03 | |
I want him to solicit a mother to abandon her baby. We had a 16-year-old willing to testify. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:10 | |
DID have? She disappeared. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
We can't prove it, but Jarvis may have paid her off, or who knows? | 0:21:13 | 0:21:18 | |
Nice fella we got here(!) Jarvis solicits pregnant women at the welfare office. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:25 | |
Where do we come in? Assign a female officer - | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
padded out to look pregnant - waiting to be solicited. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:34 | |
We have to be very careful about entrapment. Let him make the first move. We get Rita Higuero? | 0:21:34 | 0:21:41 | |
Yes. A blonde officer is best. Huh? | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
Blonde, blue-eyed babies go for the most on the baby farms. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:48 | |
I'm not wearing a maternity dress with bows on! I'll send a male detective as a husband. | 0:21:54 | 0:22:00 | |
You have a blond detective? Oh, yeah. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:03 | |
Does HE have to be blond? | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
How's my blushing bride? Going home. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
Sounds good to me! Where are you going? Home with the little woman. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:18 | |
You have to be pregnant tomorrow, so I thought... Don't think! | 0:22:18 | 0:22:23 | |
Oh, you're back. There you go. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
Gorgeous! | 0:22:33 | 0:22:35 | |
OK. Oh, I don't know what to eat! | 0:22:35 | 0:22:40 | |
I feel like such a blimp. You look great. ..Doesn't she? | 0:22:40 | 0:22:45 | |
You look wonderful. I'm three pounds overweight. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:49 | |
So order the fish. It's great. We'll order it dry. Oh, why not?! | 0:22:49 | 0:22:54 | |
It's just so confusing - which diet to be on! | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
- First they say, "Forget carbs and eat protein." - Remember the water maven? | 0:22:57 | 0:23:03 | |
The worst! Noting but meat and so much water, your kidneys floated! | 0:23:03 | 0:23:07 | |
- Now they say meat raises your cholesterol. - What about cellulite? | 0:23:07 | 0:23:12 | |
You should see these thighs! When I saw that glorious bod, there was no cellulite! | 0:23:12 | 0:23:19 | |
Well... Hang on there a minute! | 0:23:19 | 0:23:21 | |
Before you get your duelling pistol, she appeared in the buff in the play we did off Broadway a few years ago. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:29 | |
Yeah. Oh, I'm not jealous! ..Do I look jealous? Do I? | 0:23:29 | 0:23:33 | |
I love it when you do your caveman number. Come on. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:38 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
Well, have you decided? | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
I don't know. I'm not real hungry. Oh, don't fast! | 0:23:43 | 0:23:48 | |
You'll lose it quick, but will gain it back just as quickly! Believe me! | 0:23:48 | 0:23:53 | |
I'm not dieting. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:55 | |
You're lucky! You don't have to be in front of a camera. It adds 10lb! | 0:23:55 | 0:24:00 | |
When I went out to the coast to do that picture with Clint, I asked for fresh salads in my dressing room. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:06 | |
You should've heard the uproar! | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
You would've thought I'd asked for my picture above the title! | 0:24:09 | 0:24:13 | |
Every suit in the studio descends, with cost sheets telling me the picture had gone over budget! | 0:24:13 | 0:24:19 | |
We're taking about a salad here! A little itsy-bitsy salad! | 0:24:19 | 0:24:24 | |
Why couldn't you just relax and enjoy yourself? Was I rude? You hardly said a thing. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:30 | |
I'm sorry, but dieting is not my favourite topic of conversation. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:34 | |
She babbled on for 45 minutes as if it's the best thing in the world! | 0:24:34 | 0:24:39 | |
You don't like that sort of people, do you? | 0:24:39 | 0:24:43 | |
Frankly, I find them very full of themselves and rather superficial. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:48 | |
Yeah, well, they're not as fascinating as cops(!) | 0:24:48 | 0:24:52 | |
But cops talk about REAL things! Yeah - pimps and junkies! That is a barrel of laughs(!) | 0:24:52 | 0:24:58 | |
Josh, I'm sorry! But I find it very difficult to deal with work | 0:24:58 | 0:25:03 | |
AND spend my entire evening consumed with her cellulite! | 0:25:03 | 0:25:07 | |
You can't live in the gutter just cos you work there. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:12 | |
What does that mean? Stop taking it home with you. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:16 | |
Where should I leave it?! I mean...! Wait a minute! | 0:25:16 | 0:25:20 | |
I see people eat dog food cos they can't afford a decent meal, and she's worried about losing weight?! | 0:25:20 | 0:25:26 | |
Different people live in different worlds! You CAN move between them! Oh?! How about selling children, | 0:25:26 | 0:25:33 | |
and she's worried about having a salad sent to her dressing room?! | 0:25:33 | 0:25:38 | |
Let me tell you something, pal. The next time somebody steals your bloody sports car, call an actress! | 0:25:40 | 0:25:46 | |
I just might. Wait. Where are you going?! | 0:25:48 | 0:25:51 | |
I thought you were gonna spend the night. Under the circumstances... | 0:25:51 | 0:25:56 | |
What circumstances?! I'm angry! I am not dead! | 0:25:56 | 0:26:00 | |
Not tonight. ..Got a headache(?) | 0:26:02 | 0:26:06 | |
Oh, well, I guess I'm just not in the mood. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:12 | |
Josh, come... | 0:26:13 | 0:26:16 | |
This just isn't gonna work for you and me, is it? | 0:26:19 | 0:26:22 | |
Well, frankly, I don't find you very appealing when you behave this way. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:28 | |
Really? | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
Well, isn't that terrific(?) | 0:26:31 | 0:26:33 | |
Good night. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
It must be tough to do, with both parents working. LAUGHTER | 0:26:53 | 0:26:58 | |
But you and Claudia are doing fine, right? I wouldn't go that far. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:03 | |
What do you do with Lauren? Daycare? Claudia's mother. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:07 | |
Daycare, baby-sitting... It's the logistics that kill you. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:12 | |
That bad, huh? You know the worst part? What? | 0:27:12 | 0:27:16 | |
The only one who knows if it's working out is Lauren, and she's too little to say. Don't worry. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:23 | |
When she's 13, you'll hear from her...constantly. Thank you(!) | 0:27:23 | 0:27:27 | |
The most important thing you can do is not to let them walk too early. I beg your pardon?! | 0:27:27 | 0:27:34 | |
Well, premature homolateral movement can cause severe switching in the cerebral hemispheres. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:40 | |
You know - right brain, left brain? | 0:27:40 | 0:27:42 | |
See that? ..His parents probably encouraged him to walk too soon. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:48 | |
Ah, here comes Ma and Pa Kettle now. How'd it go? Nothing! | 0:27:49 | 0:27:54 | |
Hey, Josie! So? ..We stood in line for six hours, not one bite. I tell you, my feet are killing me! | 0:27:54 | 0:28:00 | |
Hey, Lacey. You got one terrific partner there. You wanna trade? | 0:28:00 | 0:28:05 | |
I'll give you Petrie and two draft choices. No, thank you, Victor. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:10 | |
Six hours with Isbecki. You must've had a time. Oh, he's not so bad. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:19 | |
Actually, he's a good cop. He thinks I'm very interesting. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:23 | |
You had a fight with Josh. | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 | |
We just came to an understanding. What kind of an understanding? | 0:28:28 | 0:28:33 | |
He thinks actresses are more his type. | 0:28:33 | 0:28:36 | |
Oh. | 0:28:38 | 0:28:40 | |
Mmm, thanks. That feels so good. | 0:28:40 | 0:28:43 | |
I'm sorry, Chris. I don't care. It's not a big loss. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:47 | |
Harv's making his famous pot roast tonight. Wanna come join us? I think I'll get to bed early. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:53 | |
Yeah, you look a little tired. Yeah? Pregnancy'll do that to you! | 0:28:53 | 0:28:59 | |
Mary Beth? Hiya, gorgeous. Hiya, baby. | 0:29:03 | 0:29:07 | |
HE SIGHS | 0:29:08 | 0:29:10 | |
Where's Jeanie? Jeanie? | 0:29:21 | 0:29:24 | |
She's sleeping. | 0:29:25 | 0:29:27 | |
I thought you said we weren't gonna name her? | 0:29:27 | 0:29:31 | |
Make it too hard when... We have to give her up, yeah. | 0:29:31 | 0:29:36 | |
It's just, today, I thought about her as Jeanie. You know? | 0:29:36 | 0:29:40 | |
Er... Jeanie with the light brown hair. | 0:29:40 | 0:29:44 | |
Like that song. Let's adopt her, Harv. | 0:29:44 | 0:29:48 | |
Let's adopt her. I thought we were baby-sitting for two weeks here. | 0:29:48 | 0:29:52 | |
Is she a problem...? Slow down! Not for you, but what happens when I have to start work again? | 0:29:52 | 0:29:58 | |
I won't be here to watch her. We did it twice before. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:02 | |
No, my MOTHER did it twice! She starts a new job next week. So we get daycare! | 0:30:02 | 0:30:07 | |
How else do other families manage? Mary Beth, she's going to need special attention. The deafness! | 0:30:07 | 0:30:14 | |
It's not a problem now, but... There's special schools. We'll all learn sign language. | 0:30:14 | 0:30:20 | |
Oh, you don't wanna do it. Mary Beth, listen to me! She's a doll. I'm crazy about her! | 0:30:20 | 0:30:26 | |
But you and me, we are finally getting to a stage in our lives! | 0:30:26 | 0:30:30 | |
The boys'll be self-sufficient soon! We can go places! We can do things...! | 0:30:30 | 0:30:36 | |
You don't wanna do it! There's nothing more to say. Did I say no? | 0:30:36 | 0:30:40 | |
BABY CRIES She knows we're talking about her? Jeanie? Yeah. Nice name. | 0:30:40 | 0:30:46 | |
Honey? Either way, I love you. | 0:30:46 | 0:30:49 | |
CRYING CONTINUES OK, all right! We're coming! | 0:30:49 | 0:30:53 | |
Think it over. 18 more years, she'll be out of the house. | 0:30:53 | 0:30:57 | |
What? Are you two just gonna stand in line all day? | 0:31:07 | 0:31:11 | |
I'll handle this, honey. | 0:31:14 | 0:31:17 | |
You haven't completed these forms properly. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:24 | |
Oh, yeah? | 0:31:24 | 0:31:26 | |
Sorry. It's kinda new for us. It's embarrassing. I've never been out of work. This isn't right! | 0:31:26 | 0:31:32 | |
Let's get out of here, please... No need for the missus to have false pride! Not in her condition. | 0:31:32 | 0:31:39 | |
Yeah. Look, er... | 0:31:39 | 0:31:42 | |
It's possible I can help you out. ..Really help you out. None of this Mickey Mouse government stuff. | 0:31:42 | 0:31:49 | |
This guy's a lawyer. Helps people like you get back on their feet. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:54 | |
I'll call him. Tell him you're on your way over there. | 0:31:54 | 0:31:59 | |
Thank you very much. | 0:31:59 | 0:32:01 | |
How much do you need? Hmm? I thought you said there was trouble in lending money? | 0:32:01 | 0:32:08 | |
I've also been known to say that it's greater to give than receive, provided both sides do some giving. | 0:32:08 | 0:32:15 | |
There are a lot of fine people in this city. Rich, generous people. These folks have everything. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:22 | |
Save for one thing. | 0:32:22 | 0:32:25 | |
They don't have children. | 0:32:25 | 0:32:27 | |
Legal heirs to their fortunes. And they're grieving for it. | 0:32:27 | 0:32:32 | |
Look, Mother... | 0:32:32 | 0:32:34 | |
You have something growing in your belly that these folks would pay dearly to possess. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:42 | |
My baby?! I know that may sound a little hard, | 0:32:42 | 0:32:46 | |
but think of that child of yours growing up in a beautiful house with toys, clothes, college, computers... | 0:32:46 | 0:32:53 | |
Think of yourselves. Now, you're young. You will have other children. | 0:32:53 | 0:32:58 | |
This time, you'll have a $15,000 nest egg to see to the future. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:07 | |
You're saying you'll buy our baby for $15,000? Cash. | 0:33:11 | 0:33:15 | |
Plus all hospital and incidental expenses. | 0:33:15 | 0:33:18 | |
Did you get it? Loud and clear. ..Mr Jarvis, you have the right to remain silent. | 0:33:18 | 0:33:24 | |
If you give up that right, anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law... | 0:33:24 | 0:33:32 | |
You should've seen Cagney! She was great! Wide-eyed, sweet. | 0:33:37 | 0:33:42 | |
Then, all of a sudden, BAM! "OK, buster, you're under arrest." I thought he'd lose it there. | 0:33:42 | 0:33:48 | |
Come on. It was no big deal! Credit where it's due... Enough already! | 0:33:48 | 0:33:53 | |
The assistant DA is happy. She's filed Jarvis for conspiracy, child selling and criminal solicitation. | 0:33:53 | 0:34:00 | |
We got one welfare clerk, and they're seeing if they find others. What about the parents? | 0:34:00 | 0:34:06 | |
Child abandonment and endangering. We're bringing them both in. Did you get the file on Jeanie? | 0:34:06 | 0:34:12 | |
Yes. May I see it? | 0:34:14 | 0:34:17 | |
Ann Jessop. ..You're gonna arrest her? Yeah. | 0:34:25 | 0:34:30 | |
I'll bring her in. No, Lacey. The uniforms are making the collars. Please, sir... Lacey! | 0:34:30 | 0:34:36 | |
Forget it. | 0:34:36 | 0:34:38 | |
So, what do you think? Should I cut more off the top? | 0:35:11 | 0:35:15 | |
Harv and I decided we're gonna try to adopt her. | 0:35:17 | 0:35:22 | |
Oh, yeah? | 0:35:22 | 0:35:24 | |
That's wonderful! Lieutenant should've let me bring the mother in. For what? | 0:35:25 | 0:35:32 | |
So you can yell at her and threaten her? | 0:35:32 | 0:35:35 | |
I wanna see her! Mary Beth, don't see her! | 0:35:35 | 0:35:39 | |
It's only gonna make you feel bad. I'll never have peace with this! | 0:35:39 | 0:35:44 | |
I don't understand it! There's nothing to understand! | 0:35:44 | 0:35:48 | |
Some people you can't understand! Now, go home! You don't wanna be here when they bring her in. | 0:35:48 | 0:35:55 | |
No, I'm staying here. You're going out of your way to cause yourself pain, my friend. No! | 0:35:55 | 0:36:01 | |
Some day, Jeanie's gonna ask me, and I'll need something to say. | 0:36:01 | 0:36:06 | |
No way! | 0:36:20 | 0:36:22 | |
You keep that on my tab. | 0:36:22 | 0:36:25 | |
I ask you out, your my guest. | 0:36:25 | 0:36:27 | |
Here's to fighting crime and pursuing justice, | 0:36:28 | 0:36:32 | |
and if you don't know it, I'll hum a few bars(!) | 0:36:32 | 0:36:35 | |
Isn't that good?! You having fun? To tell you the truth, I'm not used to girls taking me out on dates. | 0:36:38 | 0:36:44 | |
Especially not you. | 0:36:44 | 0:36:46 | |
But I was... I was surprised when you asked me out. | 0:36:46 | 0:36:50 | |
Is that good surprised or bad surprised? | 0:36:50 | 0:36:54 | |
What do you think? I don't know! I'm asking! You might find me grim and depressing and unappealing! | 0:36:54 | 0:37:01 | |
That's a joke, right? | 0:37:01 | 0:37:03 | |
I never joke, Victor. | 0:37:03 | 0:37:06 | |
Let me ask you something. | 0:37:07 | 0:37:09 | |
What do you REALLY think of me? Is this serious? | 0:37:11 | 0:37:15 | |
Well, er... | 0:37:17 | 0:37:19 | |
I think you're really a looker. | 0:37:19 | 0:37:22 | |
I think you're funny. I think you're smart. | 0:37:22 | 0:37:25 | |
And I think you're a good cop. | 0:37:25 | 0:37:28 | |
Enough? More. | 0:37:28 | 0:37:30 | |
You're scintillating, captivating, | 0:37:30 | 0:37:33 | |
exciting, enchanting... | 0:37:33 | 0:37:36 | |
OK. Now for the acid test. Are you ready? | 0:37:36 | 0:37:41 | |
This is the question. | 0:37:42 | 0:37:45 | |
Would you throw me out of bed on a cold night? | 0:37:45 | 0:37:50 | |
That is the joke, right? | 0:37:52 | 0:37:54 | |
It was supposed to be a come-on. | 0:37:56 | 0:37:59 | |
Oh, I get it. I say yes, and you laugh in my face, right? Victor. Do you want me or not? | 0:37:59 | 0:38:06 | |
We are two consenting adults. So which is it? Your place or mine? | 0:38:07 | 0:38:12 | |
You've got hurt feelings. | 0:38:26 | 0:38:28 | |
Or something. | 0:38:30 | 0:38:32 | |
You don't want me. Not tonight, at least. | 0:38:32 | 0:38:37 | |
I'm gonna hate myself in the morning. | 0:38:42 | 0:38:45 | |
I'm Detective Lacey, Mrs Jessop. | 0:39:13 | 0:39:15 | |
Did they tell you you don't have to talk to me? | 0:39:17 | 0:39:21 | |
I just wanted you to know that my husband and I have been taking care of your daughter. | 0:39:21 | 0:39:27 | |
I never really saw her, you know. | 0:39:29 | 0:39:32 | |
They took her away in the delivery room. | 0:39:32 | 0:39:36 | |
What does she look like? | 0:39:38 | 0:39:41 | |
Pretty. | 0:39:42 | 0:39:44 | |
She's pretty. She's got big blue eyes, but I think they'll go brown. | 0:39:44 | 0:39:49 | |
And a healthy appetite. | 0:39:50 | 0:39:53 | |
Mrs Jessop? Did they tell you in the hospital that she's deaf? I don't care. I want her back! | 0:39:54 | 0:40:01 | |
You gave her away, Mrs Jessop. You sold her. | 0:40:01 | 0:40:05 | |
We were living in two rooms without heat! I already had two children! | 0:40:05 | 0:40:10 | |
They gave me...money. Yeah, $15,000. You should've hung around for the mark-up. | 0:40:17 | 0:40:24 | |
When they sold her again, it was 35(!) (Shut up!) | 0:40:24 | 0:40:28 | |
I didn't... I didn't really know her yet. Can't you understand that? | 0:40:31 | 0:40:36 | |
She was just... | 0:40:36 | 0:40:38 | |
..something inside of me! | 0:40:41 | 0:40:43 | |
I want her back! | 0:40:47 | 0:40:50 | |
That's for a court to decide. She's MY baby! What'll you do next time you can't make rent? | 0:40:51 | 0:40:58 | |
You're not gonna get her, you know. | 0:40:59 | 0:41:01 | |
I... The courts always decide in favour of the natural mother. Maybe! She's mine. | 0:41:01 | 0:41:08 | |
My Sarah. | 0:41:09 | 0:41:11 | |
Sarah?! That's the name that I gave her when I was carrying her. | 0:41:13 | 0:41:18 | |
It's a pretty name, isn't it? | 0:41:21 | 0:41:24 | |
Yes, a very pretty name. | 0:41:25 | 0:41:28 | |
Hey, lady... She needs more from you than a name. | 0:41:33 | 0:41:38 | |
I hope to God she gets it. | 0:41:40 | 0:41:42 | |
KNOCK ON DOOR | 0:41:56 | 0:41:59 | |
Yeah? It's Chris! | 0:42:01 | 0:42:04 | |
LOCK RATTLES | 0:42:04 | 0:42:06 | |
Hiya. Thanks for coming. Sure. | 0:42:06 | 0:42:09 | |
Sit down. | 0:42:09 | 0:42:11 | |
Where's Harvey? | 0:42:22 | 0:42:24 | |
He's getting her dressed. We got her a sweet outfit. Oh, yeah? Yeah. | 0:42:24 | 0:42:29 | |
So, why don't you keep her until the trial's over? | 0:42:29 | 0:42:33 | |
Oh, the bureau wants her in a foster home. So fight 'em! | 0:42:33 | 0:42:38 | |
No. Why not? | 0:42:39 | 0:42:41 | |
Her mother is not so bad! | 0:42:43 | 0:42:45 | |
Oh, it's easy to judge, Chris. It's easy to judge. How do I know what I would've done? | 0:42:45 | 0:42:51 | |
I know what you'd do. You'd eat dog food if you had to. | 0:42:51 | 0:42:56 | |
The court's won't give her to me. | 0:42:57 | 0:43:00 | |
The preference is the natural mother. | 0:43:00 | 0:43:04 | |
Well, at least that she's OK, though, huh? The mother? | 0:43:06 | 0:43:10 | |
Yeah. You can keep an eye on her. | 0:43:12 | 0:43:14 | |
Yeah. That's good. Yeah. | 0:43:14 | 0:43:17 | |
You and Harvey should have one the old-fashioned way, you know? Yeah? Mm-hm. | 0:43:20 | 0:43:26 | |
Oh... | 0:43:29 | 0:43:31 | |
Christine, I feel so sad. | 0:43:31 | 0:43:34 | |
SHE SOBS | 0:43:35 | 0:43:38 | |
KNOCK ON DOOR Mary Beth... Mrs Rottenmeyer. | 0:43:38 | 0:43:42 | |

Hello, come on in. Officer Lacey. Yeah, you remember Officer Cagney? | 0:43:45 | 0:43:49 | |
Harv! Mrs Rosenmeyer's here! HER VOICE BREAKS | 0:43:49 | 0:43:53 | |
Well, she looks like she's been very well taken care of. ..We really appreciate that. | 0:44:10 | 0:44:15 | |
So long, kid. Of all the gin joints in the world, you had to walk into this one. | 0:44:20 | 0:44:26 | |
I'll be thinking about you, Jeanie. | 0:44:35 | 0:44:38 | |
Poor little thing. She can't hear a word. That's what you think. | 0:44:38 | 0:44:42 | |
Bye, funny face. Oh... | 0:44:45 | 0:44:48 | |
There you go. And... Bye. ..thank you. | 0:44:48 | 0:44:52 | |
Have a beautiful life, Sarah. | 0:44:54 | 0:44:58 | |
