He told me about the lump that he found in your breast.

0:00:030:00:06

You want to talk about how WE'D feel in case maybe I have breast cancer?!

0:00:060:00:10

OK. In case maybe I have breast cancer? You go first.

0:00:100:00:14

I don't want it, Harv!

0:00:140:00:16

I don't want tubes and machines.

0:00:160:00:18

I don't want the boys remembering me sick like that.

0:00:180:00:22

It doesn't matter how I feel about it!

0:00:220:00:24

It matters how YOU feel!

0:00:240:00:26

Harvey...

0:00:260:00:27

I'm scared of dying.

0:00:270:00:30

I... I don't want to mess up your life.

0:00:300:00:33

Mess up my life? Mary-Beth, you ARE my life.

0:00:330:00:38

Lacey.

0:02:150:02:17

Morning. It's good you came in early. I'd like to talk to you in my office.

0:02:170:02:21

Sit down.

0:02:290:02:30

You noticed anything going on with Cagney, lately?

0:02:330:02:37

-I don't know what you mean, sir.

-Well, is she worried about anything?

0:02:370:02:41

-Has she something heavy on her mind?

-No. Why?

0:02:410:02:45

Well, I don't know anything about, uh, female problems -

0:02:450:02:49

medical things like that...I...

0:02:490:02:51

Well, I was looking for the Benedetto file on her desk this morning...

0:02:530:02:58

and her drawer was open and I saw a bunch of these.

0:02:580:03:02

You know, Lacey,

0:03:030:03:05

I don't pry into the private lives of my officers,

0:03:050:03:08

but if she's got cancer she shouldn't be reading about it, she should be doing something about it.

0:03:080:03:13

Do you know if she is?

0:03:130:03:15

It's not Cagney, sir. It's me.

0:03:160:03:18

She got those for me -

0:03:200:03:22

persuaded me to see a doctor, which I did Friday. They say my n...

0:03:220:03:27

Anything I can do?

0:03:280:03:30

No, sir, thank you. I see a surgeon today - he says what comes next -

0:03:300:03:35

if it's OK with you? It shouldn't take longer than my lunch hour, sir.

0:03:350:03:39

Sure, anything you want, you take it.

0:03:390:03:42

Um, actually, do you want to take some real time off?

0:03:420:03:45

No, sir, I'd like to keep working as usual.

0:03:450:03:48

-Lacey?

-Yes, sir?

0:03:500:03:51

Anything you want... you be sure and let me know.

0:03:510:03:55

Yes, sir.

0:03:560:03:58

Hi.

0:04:330:04:34

I'm scheduled for a mastectomy on the 26th. It's called a modified radical.

0:04:350:04:40

They remove the breast and the lymph glands under the arm.

0:04:400:04:44

Oh, what the hell, Christine, uh?

0:04:460:04:48

Maybe no-one will notice. I mean, well, they weren't much to speak of.

0:04:480:04:52

I have to admit that this one is Harv and the boys' favourite.

0:04:520:04:56

Hell, if I'd known this I'd never have quit smoking(!)

0:04:560:05:00

-Oh, help me, Christine, these are jokes.

-What about a second opinion?

0:05:000:05:04

You said, "Take care of it." Everybody said, "Take care of it", so, the sooner the better.

0:05:040:05:09

I took care of it.

0:05:090:05:11

He's not the only doctor in New York.

0:05:110:05:14

He's...he's a very expensive surgeon, Christine. He's highly recommended.

0:05:160:05:20

He's got a wall full of diplomas.

0:05:200:05:22

He says I get a mastectomy.

0:05:240:05:26

GENERAL OFFICE NOISE AND CHATTER

0:05:340:05:37

-Mrs Taggart, how's Kevin?

-What gives you the right to go round messing with people's lives?

0:05:460:05:52

-I came to tell you I don't appreciate it.

-Mrs Taggart, please sit down.

0:05:520:05:56

You don't know Kevin and me, and neither does that social worker!

0:05:560:06:00

YOU went right ahead because YOU think you know what's best for us!

0:06:000:06:04

Mrs Taggart, I don't know what you're talking about.

0:06:040:06:07

They took Kevin away from me and put him in juvenile detention!

0:06:070:06:11

And then they waved your report in my face

0:06:110:06:13

and told me I was an unfit mother!

0:06:130:06:15

Well, Mrs Taggart, sometimes the City has to investigate cases like yours.

0:06:150:06:20

Cases like mine?! We are people, me and my son, and I am sick to death

0:06:200:06:25

-of you treating me like dirt!

-Mrs Taggart, there are things that we can do.

0:06:250:06:29

You lost me my son.

0:06:320:06:34

I think you did enough!

0:06:340:06:36

Look, Mr Cartman is responsible for kids like Kevin Taggart.

0:06:460:06:50

They found six dime bags of heroin on him when they undressed him at the hospital.

0:06:500:06:55

-What did you expect us to do?

-He's eight - maybe he didn't know what it was.

0:06:550:06:59

I've seen overdoses not much older and so have you.

0:06:590:07:02

-He was carrying heroin.

-That doesn't prove neglect by the mother, ma'am.

0:07:020:07:07

Come on! You had the initial contact.

0:07:070:07:09

"There was some evidence Mrs Taggart had hit the child

0:07:090:07:13

-"as punishment for being out late."

-Yeah.

0:07:130:07:15

-I think she smacked him.

-But it could have been worse.

0:07:150:07:19

I don't think it was.

0:07:190:07:21

All right, even if we can't prove abuse,

0:07:210:07:24

she leaves him alone an average of five hours a day, sometimes much more -

0:07:240:07:28

as you mention in your report!

0:07:280:07:30

She works. She can't afford daycare.

0:07:300:07:32

Do you wanna know the last time we heard that?

0:07:320:07:35

A month ago from a woman who was also a possible child abuser.

0:07:350:07:39

We didn't get the kid out.

0:07:390:07:41

She strangled him with a lamp cord.

0:07:410:07:44

Studying late last night again?

0:07:520:07:54

I've enrolled in on one of those three-night courses.

0:07:540:07:58

Sergeant School?!

0:08:010:08:04

-You gotta be kidding!

-Look,

0:08:040:08:06

-as hard as it may be for you to believe, I really want to pass this exam.

-So do I,

0:08:060:08:12

-but you're psyching up for it all wrong.

-Yeah?! Sure(!)

0:08:120:08:16

D'you know what I did last night?

0:08:160:08:18

I went over to Bon Bon's.

0:08:180:08:21

She cooked me a thick, juicy steak.

0:08:210:08:23

She served me imported beer.

0:08:230:08:26

She kept me warm while I was watching the ball game,

0:08:260:08:28

-then we drifted to the bed.

-I don't need to hear this.

0:08:280:08:32

It's the one thing I know won't be on the exam.

0:08:320:08:35

That's uniform. On the Michaelson stakeout, Crosson with Vinowicz and Cagney and Lacey for back-up.

0:08:370:08:43

Oh, no, no, scratch Lacey.

0:08:430:08:45

-No long hours of extra duty for Lacey until further notice.

-Is she sick?

0:08:450:08:49

-What, I got to give you a reason for every order?! Just do it, Coleman.

-Yes, sir.

0:08:490:08:54

Our report made her look bad - admit it, Christine.

0:08:550:08:58

How do we know she doesn't abuse him? How?

0:08:580:09:01

-We didn't see it!

-Neither did anyone else.

0:09:010:09:03

A social worker takes three hours to evaluate a case.

0:09:030:09:07

It doesn't mean it didn't happen.

0:09:070:09:09

I think that Eleanor Taggart loves her son.

0:09:090:09:12

-I saw her face when you took him out of that hole.

-Are we supposed to say we made a mistake on the report?

0:09:120:09:18

-We put what we saw.

-On that basis they took Kevin away from his mum. She's got nobody on her side.

0:09:180:09:23

Except you -

0:09:230:09:25

who's, obviously got some wonderful idea.

0:09:250:09:28

What?

0:09:290:09:31

OK...

0:09:310:09:32

Willy gave Kevin dope. He could be independent,

0:09:320:09:35

-or part of the dope ring which works the neighbourhood.

-It's possible.

0:09:350:09:39

Narcotics have been on this for three, four months - they got nowhere.

0:09:390:09:43

If the kid leads them to an arrest, the judge might find in the mother's favour?

0:09:430:09:48

Maybe.

0:09:490:09:51

In the meantime, I wouldn't mind busting Willy Smoke, or the people he works for.

0:09:510:09:56

Yeah.

0:09:560:09:58

I bet he wasn't holding when you talked to him. I want to finish this one.

0:09:580:10:03

BALL GAME ON TV

0:10:160:10:18

-You see that? He charged and they didn't even call it!

-So?

0:10:180:10:22

-What a rip-off!

-Whoa!

0:10:240:10:26

-Take it easy, Michael! Just cos... you don't take advantage.

-He didn't mean nothing by it. It's all right.

0:10:260:10:32

Michael, come here and sit by me. Come on. Come on.

0:10:330:10:36

Listen, we want to have a special dinner tonight because I want to talk to you.

0:10:390:10:44

Now, I promised that I would never lie to you.

0:10:440:10:47

I know that you know something's been going on.

0:10:470:10:50

You've a right to know what it is.

0:10:500:10:52

I don't want you to be scared, all right?

0:10:540:10:57

I saw the doctor today. I'm to have an operation.

0:10:570:11:00

What kind of operation?

0:11:000:11:03

Well...I have a lump in my breast.

0:11:030:11:06

The doctor says my breast has to be removed.

0:11:060:11:09

That's what happened to Bobby Vitello's mother.

0:11:100:11:14

Bobby's mother died. Are you going to die?

0:11:140:11:17

No, sweetheart. Oh, don't think that.

0:11:170:11:19

Of course I'm not going to die. Jeez!

0:11:190:11:22

HORN BLAST

0:11:350:11:37

IMPATIENT HORN BLASTS

0:11:370:11:40

Hey! What's the matter?! Can't you read?! Detective parking only - deliveries are out at the front!

0:11:460:11:52

-Oh, take it easy, lady. I'm just going to be a minute.

-That's some answer when you're breaking the law!

0:11:520:11:58

-There was a garbage truck out there!

-Listen, you...

0:11:580:12:01

-you're lucky I don't have you hauled out of here!

-You're a real prize lady!

-Same to you, you crud bum!

0:12:010:12:07

-Crud bum?!

-Get in your car and back it up!

0:12:070:12:10

REPETITIVE BLASTS FROM VAN HORN

0:12:100:12:14

Move it!

0:12:140:12:15

ME?! Me back up?! YOU back up!

0:12:150:12:18

-Hurry up! I got things to do!

-Yeah?!

0:12:180:12:21

You know what you're dealing with?! I'm a cop!

0:12:210:12:24

What do I care what you are! I'm from...

0:12:240:12:27

You came from Jersey! Go back to Jersey!

0:12:270:12:30

Ready?! Back it up!

0:12:300:12:33

BACKGROUND CHATTER AND DISCUSSION

0:12:350:12:38

Sorry I'm late, I had to go to court.

0:12:390:12:41

The traffic was lousy and there's a fathead parked in our space.

0:12:410:12:45

-I mean, it's a police...

-Lacey.

-..station. You'd think they'd obey the signs, right, sir?

-No problem.

0:12:450:12:50

Have a good day, Lacey.

0:12:500:12:52

-Hi, how are you doing?

-It's not been my favourite morning, Christine.

-Well.

0:12:550:12:59

-What's that?

-We're asked to testify at the Kevin Taggart custody hearing.

-Oh, good.

0:12:590:13:04

-Has Taggart decided to call Legal Aid?

-No, we've been called as witnesses for the City.

0:13:040:13:09

We'll have to find Willy Smoke.

0:13:100:13:13

-You should get another opinion about the mastectomy.

-We talked about this.

0:13:150:13:20

No, we didn't. I've been reading and they all say you should have a second opinion.

0:13:200:13:25

You tell me to hurry, get something done. Now you suggest seeing more doctors. I want to get it over with.

0:13:250:13:31

Why are you being so stubborn?! You're more stubborn than I am!

0:13:310:13:35

What does it take to see one more doctor?!

0:13:350:13:37

-Arguing won't pay for it.

-I'll pay for it!

0:13:370:13:40

What if the doctor says the same as the first guy?

0:13:400:13:43

Well, you took a shot.

0:13:430:13:45

Oh, give me a break! You said you wouldn't be back.

0:13:490:13:52

-We need Willy Smoke. Has he been in recently?

-Not since you hassled him.

0:13:520:13:56

Do you know where he might be?

0:13:560:13:58

-I mind my own business.

-Corelli, you know everything that goes on here.

0:13:580:14:02

Maybe you'd tell us more if we took you down for questioning. That'd take hours - maybe days.

0:14:020:14:07

You're a real sweetheart, you know(!)

0:14:070:14:09

Mr Corelli, you heard something about Willy Smoke, am I right?

0:14:090:14:13

Why not save everybody a lot of grief, OK?

0:14:130:14:16

-All I heard was I wouldn't be seeing him around no more.

-He left town?

0:14:160:14:21

Yeah. Maybe...

0:14:210:14:24

-Kevin said he didn't know what he was carrying.

-Which I don't believe.

0:14:240:14:28

-Corelli says Willy Smoke is out of town.

-Which I DO believe.

0:14:280:14:32

-If I'd known we'd be on a hike, I'd have worn different shoes.

-Should've took him in when you had him.

0:14:320:14:38

-Have you ever heard of probable cause?

-Hello,

0:14:380:14:41

-I'd like to talk about the roster.

-About what?

-Let's go into my office.

-We can talk about it here, sir.

0:14:410:14:47

I think you ought to consider taking that time off.

0:14:470:14:50

-Maybe come in afternoons for a while.

-Lieutenant, I already explained that's not necessary.

-Please...

0:14:500:14:56

Sir, if that's all, I got a lot of work to do. What is this, here?

0:14:560:15:00

What's this - the City dump?

0:15:000:15:02

-Who left this here?

-Come on, let me give you a hand.

0:15:020:15:05

Will you please stop walking on eggs around me!

0:15:050:15:08

I have cancer. I have breast cancer.

0:15:160:15:20

And so Coleman won't have to take any bets on it, it's this one here - left one, OK?

0:15:200:15:25

That satisfy everybody's curiosity?

0:15:270:15:29

I have to have an operation, but I don't want people treating me like I'm some kind of freak.

0:15:300:15:35

I would appreciate it if everybody would just forget about it, please.

0:15:360:15:41

-What's it gonna look like, Harv?

-Eh?

0:16:070:16:10

I'm trying to imagine what it's gonna be like.

0:16:130:16:16

It's gonna be OK.

0:16:180:16:20

I wasn't sure.

0:16:280:16:30

I know that you like to look at me.

0:16:330:16:35

You like to look at my breasts.

0:16:370:16:39

I couldn't take it, Harv.

0:16:420:16:45

I'll see it in your eyes.

0:16:450:16:47

There's nothing...

0:16:480:16:50

nothing they can do to you that would make you any less beautiful to me.

0:16:500:16:55

100 multiple-choice questions is no big deal.

0:17:080:17:11

It's like a season of major league games.

0:17:110:17:13

You win a third, lose a third and the rest is up for grabs.

0:17:130:17:17

It's the day after tomorrow, Victor. You haven't even cracked a book.

0:17:170:17:21

Bon Bon reviewed me all weekend

0:17:210:17:24

-and then I reviewed her.

-I'm sure you got a lot done.

0:17:240:17:27

I don't have to worry! The written test is part one. In part two, I've got it made.

0:17:270:17:32

Oh, yeah(!) Well, how do you figure that?

0:17:320:17:36

-It's simulated situations.

-Right.

0:17:360:17:38

-They video-tape our responses.

-Uh-huh.

0:17:380:17:40

Now, with a profile like this, how can I not make a sergeant, eh?

0:17:400:17:45

I'm already late for work, you know, so you can come here and lie to me.

0:17:540:17:58

We're not lying. If Kevin helps us get the dealers it may help in your custody case.

0:17:580:18:03

Could make it worse. Would look bad if Kevin knew he was carrying drugs.

0:18:030:18:08

-Come on, he knew...

-You think he knew?

0:18:080:18:10

-If he admits to it, they take him away - case closed - but you get your big bust and promotion.

-Mrs Taggart!

0:18:100:18:16

If he says nothing, maybe I've got chance to keep him.

0:18:160:18:19

Then what happens? What if Willy Smoke comes back with more money, and you lose Kevin to the street -

0:18:190:18:24

this time forever?

0:18:240:18:26

Every time I trust you people, I get hurt.

0:18:330:18:36

Mrs Taggart, I don't think the City should take your son away from you.

0:18:360:18:40

I believe this could help you and him. And the car is right over there.

0:18:400:18:45

Brought you something.

0:19:060:19:08

I thought you might be missing it.

0:19:080:19:10

That's Darryl Strawberry. He got his autograph last summer at a baseball game.

0:19:100:19:15

That's his idol.

0:19:150:19:17

What's the matter, baby?

0:19:210:19:24

I can't keep it here, Momma, someone will steal it.

0:19:240:19:27

-Did you hear him? You think I don't do better than this?

-Mrs Taggart,

0:19:280:19:32

we're here to help...please.

0:19:320:19:36

Kevin?

0:19:400:19:42

They want to ask you some questions, honey.

0:19:460:19:49

I want you to answer up, OK?

0:19:490:19:51

OK.

0:19:510:19:52

Hi, Kevin.

0:19:520:19:54

Hi.

0:19:540:19:56

-How are you doing?

-All right.

0:19:560:19:59

Listen, Kevin... when we were down that hole together

0:19:590:20:02

I said I couldn't get you out without your help

0:20:020:20:06

and you helped me.

0:20:060:20:08

Detective Lacey and I, we need your help again.

0:20:080:20:11

We need you to tell us about those packages you were carrying for Willy Smoke.

0:20:130:20:18

Do you know what was in those packages?

0:20:180:20:20

He gave you money, didn't he?

0:20:220:20:24

Did you deliver drugs for him?

0:20:240:20:26

Kevin, we know he did.

0:20:270:20:29

-I ain't no stoolie.

-Now, you listen to me, Kevin Taggart!

0:20:290:20:32

Maybe I made some mistakes, but Momma loves you

0:20:320:20:36

and I tried to teach you what was right.

0:20:360:20:38

-Now, you did wrong for that Willy Smoke...

-Momma, we needed the money.

0:20:380:20:43

Not that kind of money, baby.

0:20:430:20:45

Now, you DID wrong, and you gotta face up to it and tell these ladies the truth.

0:20:450:20:51

I know it's hard, baby,

0:20:510:20:53

but there comes a time in EVERYBODY'S life

0:20:530:20:56

when they have to do HARD things.

0:20:560:20:58

Now, it's not fair

0:20:580:21:00

but that's the way it is.

0:21:000:21:02

I'm scared, Mom.

0:21:040:21:06

Oh, baby.

0:21:060:21:08

You don't have to be scared, baby.

0:21:090:21:11

You just tell these ladies the truth, and you don't have to be scared.

0:21:110:21:16

Kevin, you knew what was in those packages, didn't you?

0:21:160:21:20

Six hours on the computer and we get zilch.

0:21:330:21:36

I mean, how many perps can there be with an alias of Bandana?!

0:21:360:21:40

-Maybe he's Colombian, or something.

-Kevin never said anything about an accent.

0:21:400:21:45

I think we ought to try and find that bar.

0:21:450:21:49

Mary Beth, you just went off shift 15 minutes ago.

0:21:490:21:52

-The kid said he lives over a bar with a big blue sign.

-We don't know its name. We don't know where it is.

0:21:520:21:58

He said it was up town and the name has something to do with blue.

0:21:580:22:02

OK, do you know how many bars that covers between here and the Bronx?

0:22:030:22:07

-You're in no shape to work late tonight.

-I can handle it, Christine.

0:22:090:22:13

Want to come, or want me to drop you off somewhere?

0:22:130:22:16

All right, it's almost midnight. We've hit ten bars. Are you ready to call it a night?

0:22:180:22:23

-Hey, you, I'm talking to, we've got three more to check on.

-Mary Beth, it'll be there tomorrow.

0:22:230:22:28

The hearing starts at 4pm.

0:22:280:22:30

-I don't think you should be pushing yourself like this.

-Look, you wanna...go home?

0:22:300:22:35

I'll finish it myself.

0:22:350:22:37

The hell you will!

0:22:380:22:40

-So what d'you say? If we give it a half hour.

-There's the apartment above it, exactly like Kevin said.

0:22:440:22:50

This is it.

0:22:500:22:52

He could be there.

0:22:530:22:56

Look at this - a man with a bandana.

0:23:120:23:15

I think Mr Bandana's open for business.

0:23:260:23:28

This is car 21.

0:23:280:23:30

Repeat, this is car 21.

0:23:300:23:32

Request uniform backup at 632, West One into Twenty-Third Street.

0:23:320:23:36

'Roger, car 21.'

0:23:360:23:38

POLICE! Stay where you are!

0:23:500:23:52

Mary Beth!

0:23:580:24:00

Freeze, you bastard! I swear to God, I'll take you out the game.

0:24:240:24:28

You'll not mess up any more little kids - no more.

0:24:300:24:33

GIVE ME THIS HERE!

0:24:370:24:41

Mary Beth!

0:24:430:24:45

APPROACHING SIRENS

0:24:450:24:47

Are you all right?

0:24:490:24:51

What the hell are you trying to prove here?! Are you trying to kill yourself?!

0:24:520:24:57

Do it on your own time, Mary Beth!

0:24:570:24:59

Listen, you want to keep ignoring the people who care about you?

0:25:030:25:08

You're gonna be dead anyway!

0:25:080:25:10

I'm glad you came to us. So many women never get a second opinion - it's really a good idea.

0:25:210:25:26

I disagree with your surgeon, Mrs Lacey.

0:25:270:25:30

I'm going to consult my colleague, who's a radiation therapist, but I'm sure she'll concur.

0:25:300:25:35

I don't think a mastectomy is necessary at this point.

0:25:350:25:39

-Why not?

-Because your lesion is small, less than 2cm diameter,

0:25:390:25:43

and it's in the outer quadrant of the breast,

0:25:430:25:46

and that's the simplest location for a lumpectomy.

0:25:460:25:51

And what, exactly, is that?

0:25:510:25:53

Just what it sounds like. We excise the lump

0:25:530:25:56

and a little of the surrounding tissue,

0:25:560:25:58

and do a biopsy of the lymph glands under the arm.

0:25:580:26:02

Now, if those are free of cancer

0:26:020:26:04

the patient is allowed to heal... oh, one to two weeks.

0:26:040:26:08

Then treat it externally with radiation,

0:26:080:26:12

five days a week, for five weeks.

0:26:120:26:14

-That's done on an outpatient basis.

-I won't have to stay in hospital?

0:26:140:26:18

You can even continue working. These are relatively simple procedures.

0:26:180:26:23

After that there's a two-week waiting period and the patient's readmitted to hospital

0:26:230:26:27

and several hollow tubes...

0:26:270:26:31

of radioactive material are implanted in the breast.

0:26:310:26:35

They're left two or three days and then removed.

0:26:350:26:37

Now, this is done under anaesthesia but it's a fairly low-risk procedure.

0:26:370:26:42

-The other doctor said I had to have chemotherapy.

-But only if the tumour has spread to the lymph glands.

0:26:420:26:48

If it hasn't, radiation is MUCH easier.

0:26:480:26:52

It has very few unpleasant side effects. A mild rash is the worst.

0:26:520:26:56

It's something like a sunburn that eventually disappears.

0:26:560:26:59

Oh, and most patients usually feel some fatigue.

0:26:590:27:02

And after the radiation, what then?

0:27:030:27:06

We'll give you a checkup, two weeks after the implant, for any sign of infection.

0:27:060:27:10

Then I see you monthly for a while. Then regular checkups for five years.

0:27:100:27:15

Why didn't the other surgeon tell me about all this?

0:27:150:27:18

Why did he say that my breast definitely had to come off?

0:27:180:27:22

Some surgeons still think that mastectomy is the only way to treat breast cancer.

0:27:220:27:27

Not all of them have experience of a lumpectomy.

0:27:270:27:30

Now, if this were California, or Massachusetts,

0:27:300:27:33

your surgeon must inform you about other treatments - it's state law.

0:27:330:27:37

So, it just depends on the doctor you go to?

0:27:370:27:40

I'm afraid so. Some doctors are sceptical about radiation therapy.

0:27:400:27:44

They remember the old techniques when it was more primitive. We've come a long way since then.

0:27:440:27:49

I've the same chance of survival with this operation as with the mastectomy?

0:27:490:27:54

This is still a relatively new procedure,

0:27:540:27:57

but most of the studies indicated that this type of carcinoma, caught as early as we have -

0:27:570:28:02

and that's the main key, early detection - there's no measurable difference in the recurrence rate.

0:28:020:28:08

Lucky you came in when you did.

0:28:110:28:13

-Well, that's great!

-Yeah.

0:28:150:28:18

-That's a lot better than that other doctor told you.

-Good news, huh?

0:28:180:28:22

-Yeah.

-Yeah, if they find that it...

0:28:220:28:25

it didn't spread to the lymph nodes...

0:28:250:28:28

I wonder how they tell you, huh?

0:28:290:28:31

Anyways, it may be all right.

0:28:310:28:33

So, when are you going to do it?

0:28:340:28:36

Tomorrow morning. Yeah, I wanted to stay late, Christine, uh, for Eleanor Taggart,

0:28:360:28:41

but the doctor couldn't work it out. So, I have to check in this hospital this afternoon, um...they do tests.

0:28:410:28:46

It's no problem. I'll take care of the hearing.

0:28:460:28:49

That's what I'm worried about, Christine.

0:28:490:28:52

Mary Beth, I have to tell the truth as I saw it.

0:28:530:28:56

Yeah.

0:28:570:28:59

I'm gonna miss the sergeant's exam.

0:29:070:29:09

-So, you take the next sergeant's exam.

-Right.

0:29:100:29:13

What's four years?! You know, I'm looking forward to calling you Sergeant Cagney.

0:29:130:29:19

Sergeant Christine would do.

0:29:200:29:22

Probably turn out to be the type to take advantage of rank, right?

0:29:220:29:26

Absolutely.

0:29:260:29:29

Absolutely.

0:29:290:29:31

Oh, dear.

0:29:430:29:45

-Not so bad, huh?

-Huh?

0:29:500:29:53

-You don't have to do that, Harv.

-It's all right.

0:29:530:29:56

-Harvey?

-Yeah?

0:30:020:30:04

There's a lasagne in the freezer. Ask Muriel to take it out in the morning and defrost it.

0:30:040:30:09

-Hey, babe, my mother knows how to defrost lasagne.

-Sure.

0:30:090:30:13

-She'll probably want to cook anyways.

-Yeah.

0:30:130:30:16

You know, Michael can get around your mother.

0:30:180:30:21

-She won't make him wear his retainer.

-So? His teeth won't fall out!

0:30:210:30:25

-It's important that he wears...

-Mrs Lacey.

0:30:250:30:28

-Yes?

-I'm from the friendly folks at Haematology.

0:30:280:30:31

-We'd like to invite you downstairs for some blood tests.

-What's wrong with her blood?

-Nothing, OK.

0:30:310:30:36

We have to do some routine blood studies.

0:30:360:30:39

It's required for all patients having surgery.

0:30:390:30:42

Madam, your car!

0:30:420:30:44

This won't take long. You can wait here.

0:30:510:30:54

I'm going to need you to testify to the condition of the Taggart apartment, Detective.

0:31:200:31:24

Um, basic tenement, right?

0:31:240:31:26

-Well, I...

-Filthy, roach heaven?

-.. No, I wouldn't say that.

0:31:260:31:30

-Any evidence of alcohol or drugs?

-Not that I saw.

-But there could be?

0:31:300:31:34

-Was there any nourishing food in the house - fruit...?

-Kevin?

0:31:340:31:38

-I wasn't looking in...

-Don't push me!

-I didn't touch you!

-You can't do that!

0:31:380:31:43

He's doing his job. You can't talk to Kevin, it could ruin his testimony.

0:31:430:31:47

-She can see him after, right?

-Well, we'll see.

-Nobody has the right to keep me from my son!

-Stop it!

0:31:470:31:53

Sit down!

0:31:530:31:55

Now, you've got to calm down, because you're not making it any easier on yourself by fighting him.

0:32:040:32:09

-Look, I understand. I have a bad temper myself.

-You don't have to talk down to me, lady.

0:32:110:32:16

-Wait a minute! I wasn't talking down to you.

-I know you look at me and you think I'm nothing.

0:32:160:32:21

Well, let me tell you, from where I started, I'm doing OK.

0:32:210:32:25

I didn't say differently, did I?

0:32:250:32:28

But you go around judging me.

0:32:280:32:30

What gives you the right to say that I'm not a good enough mother for my son?

0:32:300:32:34

The point is to protect the children.

0:32:340:32:37

I would never hurt my son, not ever, I love him.

0:32:370:32:40

Now, I made the best home that it was possible for me to make. You could see that. Couldn't you see that?

0:32:400:32:45

BELL RINGS What do you want me to do?

0:32:480:32:52

Do you want to see me beg, is that what you want?

0:32:520:32:56

Well, I don't have any pride, when it comes to Kevin. I'll do anything I have to do to keep him.

0:32:560:33:01

Please.

0:33:010:33:03

Please, don't let them take my son from me. Pl...

0:33:030:33:07

(..please.)

0:33:080:33:09

I asked you, Kevin, if your mother ever hits you.

0:33:140:33:17

-She spanks me sometimes.

-With what?

0:33:170:33:20

Her hand.

0:33:200:33:21

Does she ever hit you harder than a spanking? Does she ever hurt you?

0:33:210:33:25

-No, I already told you!

-I think we've established the point Mr Waters.

0:33:250:33:29

Have you any further questions for Kevin?

0:33:290:33:32

No, your honour. The City calls Detective Christine Cagney -

0:33:320:33:36

shield number 763.

0:33:360:33:38

-Raise your right hand. Swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth?

-I do.

0:33:430:33:47

-Detective Cagney, you and your partner, Detective...

-Lacey.

0:33:530:33:57

..Detective Lacey were called to the Taggart apartment on the 12th of this month. Is that correct?

0:33:570:34:03

-Yes.

-And, on this occasion, your report states

0:34:030:34:06

-that you suspected Mrs Taggart of abusing her child?

-Yes.

0:34:060:34:10

Excuse me, your honour, this is not a trial,

0:34:150:34:18

-it's a hearing to decide what's best for Kevin. I've something to say that might save time.

-Go ahead.

0:34:180:34:24

Thank you, your honour.

0:34:240:34:26

When we first had contact with Mrs Taggart and Kevin, I believed that Kevin was neglected

0:34:280:34:33

and might have been abused.

0:34:330:34:35

My partner and I have had some time to spend with the Taggarts since then. We both feel, now...

0:34:350:34:41

..that Eleanor Taggart... did the best she could under very difficult circumstances.

0:34:420:34:48

If I were a single parent in her situation, I'm not sure I could have done better.

0:34:500:34:55

Both my partner and I...

0:34:560:34:59

feel it would be wrong to break this family up, your honour.

0:34:590:35:03

Mrs Taggart is a working mother who's had difficulty in providing daycare for her child.

0:35:070:35:12

If the Department of Social Services could handle...

0:35:120:35:15

that matter,

0:35:150:35:17

we...believe that...Mrs Taggart should retain custody of Kevin.

0:35:170:35:21

Hey, you're gonna be so stale, you won't care if you pass or not!

0:35:310:35:36

I just want to finish this section, Lieutenant.

0:35:360:35:38

Hey, I got a real problem here.

0:35:410:35:43

Our entire relationship's on the line here. I'm talking serious crisis.

0:35:440:35:49

Victor, I'm busy, OK?

0:35:490:35:51

Well, it's quite a moral question, anyway.

0:35:520:35:55

-Bon Bon wants me to come over and make sure the sheets stay warm, right?

-Right.

0:35:550:35:59

-But we got the sergeant's exam tomorrow.

-Mm-hm.

0:35:590:36:02

Like Montana and all those guys, they got the same problem

0:36:020:36:07

every Saturday night. Would they go ahead with the lady of their choice,

0:36:070:36:13

or...do they conserve their energy for the big game on Sunday?

0:36:130:36:18

As far as I'm concerned it's a matter of priorities.

0:36:180:36:22

What's important in your life?

0:36:220:36:24

Do you know what I mean?

0:36:240:36:26

-Victor, get up.

-Hmm?

0:36:310:36:33

Stand up, Victor.

0:36:330:36:35

Some guys just can't take the pressure.

-Can I come in?

-Sure!

0:37:460:37:48

Gee, too bad, huh? Harv just went down for a coffee - he could've brought you some.

0:37:500:37:55

Lacey, I...just wanted to stop by before tomorrow and...

0:37:550:37:59

..tell you to hang in there, Lacey.

0:38:000:38:02

I am, sir, thank you.

0:38:150:38:19

Thank you, sir. Excellent news.

0:38:190:38:21

Lieutenant, I'm sorry I yelled at you in front of the whole squad. I know you were trying to help, sir.

0:38:230:38:28

Forget it. The important thing is that you get through this,

0:38:280:38:33

and that you come back to work.

0:38:330:38:35

Or, uh...

0:38:350:38:36

..it'll sure be hard without you.

0:38:390:38:41

Thank you, sir.

0:38:420:38:44

-You get well soon, huh?

-Yes, sir.

0:38:500:38:54

-And get some rest now, huh, Lacey?

-Yes, sir.

-Good...

-Hi!

-Hi, Chris.

Hiya, Christine! You look terrific!

-Fine.

0:39:380:39:43

I tried to call you last night,

0:39:430:39:45

when I got in, but they said it was too late.

0:39:450:39:48

How did it go, at the hearing?

0:39:480:39:50

They awarded Eleanor Taggart custody...

0:39:500:39:53

..pending review by Social Services. Neuwirth said she'd handle daycare.

0:39:540:39:59

You stuck up for her, didn't you, Christine?

0:39:590:40:01

I told the truth.

0:40:020:40:04

She stuck up for Mrs Taggart. She went to bat for her.

0:40:040:40:08

You're a terrific human being, Christine.

0:40:100:40:13

You're a peach.

0:40:160:40:18

You're stoned.

0:40:180:40:20

0:40:210:40:22

You're stoned.

Does he look exactly like that, um...whatshisname, Harv?

0:40:390:40:43

-You know...that teacher I had at school with boss eyes.

-Mr Cavanagh.

-Mr Cavanagh. Christine Cagney.

They're ready for you at the pre-op. The nurse will get you all set.

0:40:500:40:54

The orderlies will be in in a minute, Mrs Lacey.

0:40:590:41:02

Christine, get outta here.

0:41:040:41:06

I'm gonna stay, Mary Beth.

0:41:060:41:08

-There's the sergeant's exam, Christine!

-I don't wanna go now.

0:41:090:41:13

Christine, get the hell outta here!

0:41:130:41:17

-Break a leg.

-Christine!

0:41:220:41:25

What?

0:41:250:41:27

Don't forget

0:41:270:41:29

section one hundred and twenty...

0:41:290:41:32

..oh, whatever.

0:41:350:41:37

Divestiture of juris...

0:41:400:41:44

..juris...?

0:41:480:41:50

Diction.

0:41:510:41:53

She's SO smart.

0:42:010:42:03

Hello.

0:42:530:42:54

Degrees of homicide, I did OK.

0:43:170:43:20

I went completely blank on the difference between first degree forgery and second degree.

0:43:200:43:25

Second degree is possession of an instrument that's specified in section 170/10.

0:43:250:43:30

Thanks, Marcus(!)

0:43:310:43:33

Rub it in.

0:43:330:43:35

What's taking so damn long, anyway?

0:43:350:43:37

TANNOY: X-ray, please report to Emergency. X-ray to Emergency.

0:43:430:43:48

Biopsy on the lymph glands was negative.

0:44:010:44:05

She's OK.

0:44:060:44:08

-She's fine.

-Hey, that's terrific.

0:44:080:44:11

We'd have been real short-handed without her.

0:44:110:44:14

-So, can we see her?

-Tomorrow, OK?

0:44:140:44:18

Yeah, that's terrific. That's great. What do you say, we go down to Flannery's now, we celebrate - on me?

0:44:180:44:23

-I'd give anything for that. You coming, Victor?

-I'm a little tired tonight.

0:44:230:44:28

I'm supposed to go see Bon Bon for a little celebration, you know, but...I think I'll crash instead.

0:44:280:44:33

You didn't do so well in the written portion, huh?

0:44:340:44:37

No.

0:44:370:44:39

Part two is the video simulation.

0:44:390:44:42

With a profile like that... how could you not make sergeant?

0:44:430:44:48

-Harv?

-Yeah?

-Come on, do you want to join us?

0:44:490:44:51

-Maybe in a while.

-Yeah, we'll be there a while - Flannery's.

0:44:510:44:55

-Flannery's?

-Yeah.

-OK.

0:44:550:44:57

There's someone here to see you.
