0:01:28 > 0:01:31Welcome to the world of con games.

0:01:31 > 0:01:37For your amusement, we've come up with an interesting variation

0:01:37 > 0:01:39on the old handkerchief switch.

0:01:39 > 0:01:44The player approaches her pigeon at banks.

0:01:44 > 0:01:51- Yeah?- We have to hang around a bank all day just to be hit on!?

0:01:51 > 0:01:57- So?- We've 10,000 banks in this city. It's a needle in a haystack.

0:01:57 > 0:02:01More like TWENTY needles in a haystack.

0:02:01 > 0:02:09Our player is easy to spot. She'll be wearing purdah, the black Arabic dress with a veil.

0:02:09 > 0:02:14At home, she can't take money OUT of the bank without a man's say-so.

0:02:14 > 0:02:21Our pigeon wants to show how easy it is by taking her OWN money out of the bank.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25HIGH-PITCHED: America, what a wonderful country!

0:02:25 > 0:02:28That's when the switch takes place.

0:02:28 > 0:02:34The player asks the pigeon to hold the money while she gets the rest.

0:02:34 > 0:02:39Well, you want to prove you're legit so you put your money in with hers.

0:02:39 > 0:02:45Excuse me, sir, but this is a part that never makes sense to me.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47Right! It doesn't make any sense.

0:02:47 > 0:02:52But people fall for it, to the tune of millions a year.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55< Have you a name on the Arab lady?

0:02:55 > 0:03:00That's the cute part. She's only POSING as an Arab.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04Her real name is Hilda Rosenbloom.

0:03:04 > 0:03:10- He never answered me!- He did. He said it made no sense.

0:03:10 > 0:03:15- Thank you (!)- The whole assignment makes no sense.- Quit belly-aching!

0:03:15 > 0:03:21It's only a day and a half. Tuesday is the sexual harassment hearing.

0:03:21 > 0:03:24Let the whole Department hear it!

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Sorry...

0:03:26 > 0:03:31We've been sniping at each other all week and I AM on your side...

0:03:31 > 0:03:36Probably my fault. The hearing has me on edge. What you got?

0:03:38 > 0:03:42- Manutto's trial continues.- Oh! - Harve senior is going bowling.- Huh!?

0:03:42 > 0:03:45- And Muriel won 20 at bingo.- Oh!

0:03:45 > 0:03:50I love the discretion(!) He reads your messages out loud!

0:03:50 > 0:03:57- YOU'VE not had a gentleman caller for days.- YOU can be replaced! - Never! Oh, there's something else.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Not interested.

0:03:59 > 0:04:06D.I. Knelman wants you. Want me to tell you what it's about or do you want it to be a surprise?

0:04:12 > 0:04:16- Inspector.- Afternoon, Detective.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19Bert, could you leave us alone?

0:04:31 > 0:04:35So, Cagney... Oh, please, sit down.

0:04:39 > 0:04:44- I hear you took the Sergeant's exam. - Yes, sir.- Feeling confident?

0:04:44 > 0:04:46I'm hoping for the best.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49Good. Good, good, very good.

0:04:50 > 0:04:55This is stupid, my beating around the bush.

0:04:55 > 0:05:00I know how strongly you feel about this sexual harassment thing.

0:05:00 > 0:05:04Damn right I feel strongly about it!

0:05:04 > 0:05:10Hennessey threatened my career if I didn't sleep with him.

0:05:10 > 0:05:15I understand that and I sympathise.

0:05:18 > 0:05:23I've got a political job, there's no getting around that.

0:05:23 > 0:05:30I concern myself with the public's image and perception of the police force.

0:05:30 > 0:05:37If the media gets hold of this, know what that does to our image?

0:05:37 > 0:05:40- Yes, sir.- To YOUR Department.

0:05:40 > 0:05:45Being a second-generation cop, you're here for the long haul.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49What's good for us is good for you.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52What happens to Hennessey?

0:05:52 > 0:05:57Effectively, he HAS been punished. He'll never be Deputy Commissioner.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00You've blown him out of the water.

0:06:00 > 0:06:10- I want to make sure this sort of thing never happens again. - He has assured me that it won't.

0:06:10 > 0:06:18Look, Cagney, I know this is hard, and not really fair,

0:06:18 > 0:06:21but what I'm asking you

0:06:21 > 0:06:31is to maybe sacrifice your personal and justifiable hurt and anger for the good of this Department.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36You'll think about it, won't you?

0:06:36 > 0:06:39That's all I'm asking.

0:06:45 > 0:06:52I don't know. It seems such a long time ago now. And in the end nothing happened.

0:06:54 > 0:07:01I've tried talking to other women who worked with Hennessey. None of them want to get near me.

0:07:01 > 0:07:08- You think he harassed one of them? - Don't know. I've got the last one to talk to tonight.- Then what?

0:07:11 > 0:07:17Maybe Knelman's right. I'm sure Hennessey's got the idea by now.

0:07:19 > 0:07:24- So you told him you'd drop it!? - I told him I'd think about it.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26- What'll you do?- Think about it.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31- LACEY SLAMS DOOR - You're unhappy.

0:07:31 > 0:07:37- No! I make no judgements. It's not my life.- That never stopped you!

0:07:37 > 0:07:43- Hey!- I said no more sniping - I forgot.- As usual!- THAT'S sniping!

0:07:43 > 0:07:46OK...

0:07:46 > 0:07:49- We'll call the truce on Monday.- OK.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52You got a date?

0:07:52 > 0:07:59- It's a neutral question.- Yeah. After I talk to this woman tonight, I'm dining with my father.- Oh.

0:07:59 > 0:08:04On Monday, I promise, you'll think I am Little Mary Sunshine.

0:08:04 > 0:08:09Do you know the meaning of the term "fat chance"?

0:08:11 > 0:08:16- I've got till Monday. - If you live that long!

0:08:16 > 0:08:18A Scotch rocks, please.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22- Coffee and cream.- You still on duty?

0:08:22 > 0:08:27- No, I'm a...recovering alcoholic. - We could have gone somewhere else.

0:08:27 > 0:08:32No, I've been on the wagon 6 years. I can take it or leave it.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Who am I kidding(?)

0:08:37 > 0:08:40I'm sure it wasn't easy.

0:08:40 > 0:08:48Em...Paula, I'm sure you've heard that I've pressed charges against Captain Hennessey.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50Yeah...I've heard.

0:08:50 > 0:08:58- Had you a similar problem with him? - Well, if I did, what difference would it make?

0:08:58 > 0:09:05He's worked with lots of women; I'm the only one who's reported a problem...

0:09:05 > 0:09:13So, I was wondering... if I'm the only one... maybe I should just drop it.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21Thanks.

0:09:25 > 0:09:30The D.I. says I should drop it for the good of the Department.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42You gonna talk to me, Paula?

0:09:46 > 0:09:48I don't know.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Thanks for your help.

0:10:02 > 0:10:08- I'll call the Deputy Inspector; he'll be a very happy man.- Wait!

0:10:13 > 0:10:16Did he proposition you?

0:10:16 > 0:10:18It came out of nowhere.

0:10:18 > 0:10:25I'm no Miss America. He never even acted like he LIKED me.

0:10:25 > 0:10:26- When?- Last month.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30He said he'd recommend me for my shield if I...

0:10:30 > 0:10:33"went along" with him.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Well?

0:10:35 > 0:10:37What do you mean, "well"?

0:10:37 > 0:10:41I don't know how to ask... Did you?

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Once...

0:10:44 > 0:10:48Then he left me alone.

0:10:48 > 0:10:54Look, here's the phone number of the lawyer at the D.E.A.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58- No.- What do you mean...? - I won't testify.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00I CAN'T.

0:11:00 > 0:11:08A guy promised you promotion if you come across! And you didn't even GET it!

0:11:08 > 0:11:13I'm on the promotion list. He did exactly what he said he would.

0:11:15 > 0:11:19So you got what you bargained for.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22No wonder you won't rock the boat.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27Help me...

0:11:34 > 0:11:36I gotta go.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47BANGING ON DOOR >

0:11:49 > 0:11:55Charlie, I'm sorry! I'm late. I got stuck with somebody...

0:11:57 > 0:12:00No, please! Give me five minutes!

0:12:00 > 0:12:05- Just 5 minutes... - Get out, Hennessey!

0:12:05 > 0:12:10I want to apologise. I-I don't know what made me act that way.

0:12:10 > 0:12:16But now I realise how badly I offended your personal belief.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19- Nice act(!)- It was stupid...

0:12:21 > 0:12:24Bad judgement, nothing else.

0:12:24 > 0:12:29I can't help that you're a beautiful woman and I was lonely.

0:12:29 > 0:12:34I was attracted to you and deluded myself that you liked me, too.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37Anyway...I am deeply...

0:12:37 > 0:12:40t-truly sorry.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43It'll never happen again, I swear.

0:12:43 > 0:12:47- Tell that to Paula Eastman(!) - PHONE RINGS

0:12:47 > 0:12:54- I beg your pardon?- You remember Officer - about to be detective - Paula Eastman?

0:12:54 > 0:12:58I didn't even know her first name!

0:12:58 > 0:13:03A month ago, AFTER I pressed charges! How stupid can you be!?

0:13:03 > 0:13:07Did she say...!? It's a nightmare!

0:13:07 > 0:13:10Charlie? Hold on.

0:13:10 > 0:13:15Nice performance! When they throw you out you can fall back on that!

0:13:15 > 0:13:19- There's the door. - Cagney, I'm warning you.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22No more Mr Nice Guy(?)

0:13:22 > 0:13:24You'll be sorry.

0:13:24 > 0:13:29You don't learn. I don't like threats.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33I won't beat you, I'll crucify you!

0:13:33 > 0:13:36Get out! GET OUT!!

0:13:41 > 0:13:46Pop, hang up the phone and dial 911. It's an emergency.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49It's your father!

0:13:49 > 0:13:52Great social life, Cagney(!)

0:13:57 > 0:14:02Hello, Pop? No, no, don't hang up. It's all right. I'm all right.

0:14:02 > 0:14:10No, you don't have to call anyone. where THE HELL have you BEEN? I expected you 15 m-minutes a-ago!

0:14:12 > 0:14:17How do you hang around a bank for 6 hours!?

0:14:17 > 0:14:23You walk in. You walk out. You read brochures.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26Our con artist is gonna be there.

0:14:26 > 0:14:33Will you look at this outfit! Do I look "housewifey" enough(?)

0:14:33 > 0:14:35I'M no expert!

0:14:35 > 0:14:38- You know more than- I- do!

0:14:38 > 0:14:40I did not mean to be sniping.

0:14:40 > 0:14:45OK, maybe I AM an expert. You look, em...

0:14:45 > 0:14:47..OK.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51LACEY SOUNDS HORN

0:14:51 > 0:14:54I'm going through with the hearing.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58Oh, I'm glad. Was it Charlie?

0:14:58 > 0:15:00- Huh?- Charlie.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04No, he tried to talk me out of it.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09In HIS day cops stuck together.

0:15:09 > 0:15:14- Well, times have changed. - Not according to Charlie.

0:15:14 > 0:15:19"Nobody fights the bosses and wins." There's my bank.

0:15:20 > 0:15:25- So what decided you? - It's a long story. Tell you later.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28Will you pick me up at 3.15?

0:15:28 > 0:15:31- I gotta meet my lawyer at 4.30.- OK.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38- We'll talk then.- Yeah.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42- Have a nice day.- Don't say that!

0:15:42 > 0:15:49- What?- I'm about to face a dozen bank tellers who're gonna INSIST I "have a nice day".

0:15:49 > 0:15:55- Right, have a ROTTEN day. - Now it feels like Monday! See you.

0:15:56 > 0:16:01- Lady, got a quarter for a coffee? - No, but I'll get by(!)

0:16:16 > 0:16:23I hate to bother you, but could you tell me what that number is?

0:16:23 > 0:16:27One thousand, three hundred, twenty seven, fifty three.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- 1 - 3 - 2 - 7 - 5 - 3.- Thank you.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33I guess it's time for bifocals.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36Have you noticed, in the phone book,

0:16:36 > 0:16:40that the numbers get smaller every year?

0:16:40 > 0:16:45- I know what you mean, ma'am. - My husband - rest in peace -

0:16:45 > 0:16:4972 years old and perfect 20/20 vision.

0:16:49 > 0:16:55He was a smart man, my George. He's left me set up real nice.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58- That's good. You're lucky.- I am.

0:16:58 > 0:17:05- But I'd give it all up, just to have my George back. - I know what you mean.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08I'm sorry to have chatted on.

0:17:08 > 0:17:14- You're nice to take time to talk to an old lady.- No, I enjoyed it.

0:17:14 > 0:17:19I'd love to buy you tea. If you have the time...

0:17:19 > 0:17:23I gotta be somewhere in 26 minutes.

0:17:23 > 0:17:28- Another time maybe.- Maybe. That's nice, thank you.- Thank you.

0:17:28 > 0:17:33- Have a nice day.- Same to you.

0:17:33 > 0:17:37The closest I came to an Arab woman was a herd of Hare Krishnas!

0:17:37 > 0:17:44- #- Hare Krishna, hare Krishna...- # - God, I have such a headache!

0:17:44 > 0:17:48- Cagney.- Not now, Victor. - They called me to testify.- Why!?

0:17:48 > 0:17:52You've got nothing to do with this!

0:17:52 > 0:17:56Anything you want me to say is OK.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Thanks.

0:17:58 > 0:18:06I don't like it when someone tries to force someone. It takes all the fun out of the game.

0:18:06 > 0:18:11- That's half-way enlightened! - Don't spread it around, OK ?

0:18:15 > 0:18:20With an unexciting assignment it's all attitude.

0:18:20 > 0:18:27- You can make it fun, or a drudge. - I love it when you get philosophical(!)- Is that sniping?

0:18:27 > 0:18:30Observation of character.

0:18:30 > 0:18:35- OK, be as negative as you want. - I- had a wonderful day.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39I talked to a lovely older woman.

0:18:39 > 0:18:45A lonely widow with money, and I was glad that I was there.

0:18:45 > 0:18:54- She's exactly the type of person our con would take advantage of. And that nice man I...- Mary Beth!

0:18:54 > 0:18:59You could use a nice, solid man. He lives in Queens.

0:18:59 > 0:19:04- He prepares actuarial tables. - Sounds exciting(!)

0:19:06 > 0:19:09- You're such a snob!- THAT'S sniping!

0:19:09 > 0:19:11Observation of character.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21What!?

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Something good?

0:19:25 > 0:19:27It's Dory.

0:19:29 > 0:19:38- McKenna...?- He wants to see me for dinner tonight. - Dory McKenna...! Are you two...?

0:19:38 > 0:19:43- I've not seen him since we split up.- Ahh!!- Don't start!

0:19:43 > 0:19:48Your face lit up like a Christmas tree when you got that message.

0:19:48 > 0:19:54- He's a good friend. It would be nice to see him...- Take it easy!

0:19:55 > 0:20:02- I've an appointment with my lawyer and I can't go looking like this. - Take it easy!

0:20:04 > 0:20:10A few questions - just so I don't get any nasty surprises tomorrow.

0:20:10 > 0:20:11Sure.

0:20:11 > 0:20:15- You've been on the job how long? - 14 years.

0:20:15 > 0:20:21- Ever filed a claim like this?- Never. - Faced a situation like this?- No.

0:20:21 > 0:20:28- Never!?- I've had men come on to me. Some just joking, some serious.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31But I've never been threatened.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33How many men?

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Em... I don't know.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41- Ever have sex with any of them?- No!

0:20:41 > 0:20:47You've never had sex with anyone in the Department?

0:20:47 > 0:20:51One man. We were engaged, sort of.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56I don't see how this is relevant.

0:20:56 > 0:21:02Hennessey's lawyer can ask you ANYTHING he wants.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05- You date a lot, Cagney?- Some.

0:21:05 > 0:21:13- Where do you meet the men you date? - Where...?- Do you go to bars? - I don't believe this...!

0:21:13 > 0:21:18- Do you pick up men in bars? - Every night! Mostly sailors(!)

0:21:18 > 0:21:26- 7 or 8 at a time. - I'm glad you find this amusing! - I thought you were on MY side.

0:21:26 > 0:21:29- I am!- Your questions are insulting.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Then don't get on the witness stand!

0:21:34 > 0:21:38It's a silly assignment, Harve,

0:21:38 > 0:21:43but it's kinda nice to talk to real, ordinary people.

0:21:43 > 0:21:47If you only see cops and criminals

0:21:47 > 0:21:50you get a warped outlook, you know?

0:21:50 > 0:21:52- Sure.- I mean...

0:21:52 > 0:21:58You think the world is rotten when you deal with the rotten part.

0:21:58 > 0:22:05Like someone who lives in a desert and forgets there's something as pretty as a tree. Right?

0:22:05 > 0:22:11- Why are you smiling?- You remind me why I wanted to marry you.

0:22:11 > 0:22:16You were getting very itchy and I wouldn't let you scratch!

0:22:16 > 0:22:19You think THAT'S why...?

0:22:19 > 0:22:24- Yeah, the first time. - I asked you because I LOVED you.

0:22:24 > 0:22:31- I wanted to be sure you meant it. - I did!- The SECOND time.- BOTH times!

0:22:31 > 0:22:37By the second time I'd made sure you knew you'd not be disappointed.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40What if I didn't ask a second time?

0:22:40 > 0:22:46- I was sure you would. - I better watch what I say. - Don't say anything.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49I almost had gin...

0:22:49 > 0:22:52- Mary Beth...- Shut up, Harve.

0:22:52 > 0:23:01- I would still have respected you. - Oh, good, good. I could use a little LESS respect now...!

0:23:01 > 0:23:06- I was surprised to get a subpoena. - We weren't a state secret, Dory.

0:23:06 > 0:23:13I guess they're gonna try to make a big deal about our...relationship.

0:23:13 > 0:23:18- I guess... - I wanted to talk to you first

0:23:18 > 0:23:20and figure out what to tell them.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23Tell them we had a good time.

0:23:23 > 0:23:29- THAT would be the truth.- Yeah. - The WHOLE truth, "so help me, God".

0:23:33 > 0:23:36- Oh.- I'll get that.- Oh!- Chris!

0:23:36 > 0:23:37- No!- Cagney!

0:23:40 > 0:23:42OK.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Only if you let me reciprocate.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48After the trial I'LL cook for you.

0:23:48 > 0:23:55I bought all those damn cookbooks when we lived together. I gotta use them!

0:23:57 > 0:24:00I'd like to, Chris, I really would.

0:24:00 > 0:24:05Except, see, eh... Maggie and I are seeing each other again.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15The children must be very happy.

0:24:15 > 0:24:20- They're on Cloud Nine. - I'm happy for you.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23I really a-am...

0:24:25 > 0:24:28She was lovely. A very nice lady.

0:24:36 > 0:24:41- I wish I could go to the hearing with you.- I know.

0:24:41 > 0:24:48- The lawyer said I had to be excluded till after I testify. - Yeah, I guess so.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52- You've to be there at two?- Yeah.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55I gotta go and change.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58Are you scared?

0:24:58 > 0:25:00No, I'm OK.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03Must've had a lousy time with Dory.

0:25:03 > 0:25:09- I was wondering when you'd ask. - All right, forget it!

0:25:10 > 0:25:13He went back to his ex-wife.

0:25:13 > 0:25:22- Oh.- I'm happy for him.- Oh. - I thought we weren't going to snipe at each other any more?

0:25:29 > 0:25:35Hey, Chris, I'll be outside the hearing room at 5 o'clock.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37Thanks, Mary Beth.

0:25:38 > 0:25:43- A quarter for a cup of coffee, lady? - Are you here every day?

0:25:43 > 0:25:50The three secrets to a successful business: location, location and location.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I'll remember that!

0:25:56 > 0:26:00- Nice to see you again.- Oh, hi!

0:26:00 > 0:26:03I forgot something yesterday.

0:26:03 > 0:26:08- Are you opening a new account? - There's so many it's confusing.

0:26:08 > 0:26:13My accountant explained it to me, so I'd be happy to help you.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16- It's all right.- It's my pleasure.

0:26:16 > 0:26:20My apartment is just down the block.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23That's very kind, but...

0:26:23 > 0:26:28I entertained all the time when George was alive.

0:26:28 > 0:26:33But you become a widow and people just...drift away.

0:26:33 > 0:26:38Well...I could be there by 3.30, and I have to leave by 4...

0:26:38 > 0:26:44That's all right. Even half an hour would mean a great deal to me.

0:26:47 > 0:26:54My partner and I were reassigned and shortly after that I filed the charges.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57Have you seen Capt. Hennessey since?

0:26:57 > 0:27:05- Yes. Last Friday he came to my apartment and threatened me not to go forward with this.- I see.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08No further questions.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Detective Cagney,

0:27:10 > 0:27:16- this "occasion"...? It happened at your apartment?- Yes.

0:27:16 > 0:27:23Since you harbour such antipathy to Capt. Hennessey, why let him in?

0:27:23 > 0:27:28I answered the door without looking and he FORCED his way in.

0:27:28 > 0:27:33A police officer who opens the door without looking(?)

0:27:33 > 0:27:36- I was expecting someone.- Oh, I see!

0:27:36 > 0:27:40- My father.- Of course.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43I wonder, do you colour your hair?

0:27:45 > 0:27:46What...?

0:27:46 > 0:27:52Do you colour your hair to make yourself more alluring?

0:27:52 > 0:27:57- What has that to do with anything!? - Answer the question.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04- I highlight it.- Thank you.

0:28:04 > 0:28:10- And is THAT the way you usually dress for work?- More or less.

0:28:10 > 0:28:16- Don't you usually wear tight jeans? - I usually wear a nun's habit(!)

0:28:16 > 0:28:20- Detective!- Can't I say anything!?

0:28:20 > 0:28:24Your attorney has time for rebuttal later.

0:28:24 > 0:28:29- Have you had a venereal disease? - No. Have you?

0:28:29 > 0:28:34Detective, YOU brought these charges and if you won't co-operate

0:28:34 > 0:28:37we can dismiss the case right now.

0:28:37 > 0:28:43- Understand?- Yes, sir, I understand. - Very good. You may continue.

0:28:43 > 0:28:47- How many men have you slept with? - What!?

0:28:47 > 0:28:52You are not suggesting that you are a virgin...?

0:28:52 > 0:28:54No.

0:28:54 > 0:28:59Then how many men have you been to bed with?

0:29:00 > 0:29:03I-I don't know how to answer that.

0:29:03 > 0:29:09Let's make it easier. How many men have you slept with THIS year?

0:29:11 > 0:29:16Was it more than a platoon or less than a battalion?

0:29:16 > 0:29:19I object to the tone of the questions!

0:29:19 > 0:29:21Over-ruled.

0:29:26 > 0:29:34I lived with a man most of this year. I dated a couple of others.

0:29:34 > 0:29:36Mh-hm.

0:29:40 > 0:29:46I thought of moving to one of those retirement places in a warm climate.

0:29:46 > 0:29:51I had a friend moved to Arizona, started painting;

0:29:51 > 0:29:56never drew a line in her life and now she sells to a gift shop.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59I have no talent like that.

0:29:59 > 0:30:03My teacher said... KNOCK ON DOOR >

0:30:05 > 0:30:08I wonder who that could be.

0:30:10 > 0:30:14I haven't had a visitor since forever.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19­ Aunt Grace, I'm sorry to bother you.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21Come in, my dear.

0:30:21 > 0:30:25I'm sorry. I should have called first.

0:30:25 > 0:30:29Don't apologise! This is my niece.

0:30:29 > 0:30:35- Amanda, meet my friend, Mary Beth. - How do you do?

0:30:35 > 0:30:39What is it? You seem troubled.

0:30:39 > 0:30:42- I could leave.- No, please don't.

0:30:42 > 0:30:45I didn't know who else to go to.

0:30:45 > 0:30:54I was trying to get a cab when this really UGLY man leaped right in front of me and hey jumped right in...

0:30:54 > 0:30:58AMANDA: Only, he dropped this envelope.

0:31:04 > 0:31:10I counted it. It's 42,000.

0:31:15 > 0:31:20Well...we'll have to turn it over to the police.

0:31:20 > 0:31:23Wait. There's a list in here.

0:31:23 > 0:31:28"One kilo MJ." That's marijuana, isn't it?

0:31:30 > 0:31:35"Two grams C." That's cocaine, I think. He must be a drug dealer!

0:31:35 > 0:31:39GRACE: We have to turn the money in.

0:31:39 > 0:31:42AMANDA: But don't you see!?

0:31:42 > 0:31:49There'll be publicity and he'll come looking for me, knowing that I can identify him.

0:31:49 > 0:31:54I never thought of that. What do you think?

0:31:57 > 0:32:00I...em...don't really know, ma'am.

0:32:00 > 0:32:08I've got an idea. Call your boss, Mr Singleton. He's a lawyer. He'll know what to do, won't he?

0:32:08 > 0:32:11Yes, ma'am, he probably will.

0:32:13 > 0:32:19And the old lady persuaded him to split it, giving YOU a share?

0:32:19 > 0:32:24Then he thought we should each put up 10,000 "good faith" money.

0:32:24 > 0:32:29Proof that we won't go on a suspicious spending spree.

0:32:29 > 0:32:34The classic pocket-book scam. The "drug money" is a nice touch.

0:32:34 > 0:32:39- When do you give him the 10 grand? - Tomorrow morning.- No sweat.

0:32:39 > 0:32:43Eh, I have to be downtown at five.

0:32:43 > 0:32:46Go ahead. You did great.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50- Be here at 8 for the cash and back-up.- Yes, sir.

0:32:50 > 0:32:56- Think this is Hilda Rosenbloom with a new MO?- No way.

0:32:56 > 0:33:04- You are such a perfect pigeon, you have pulled in an ENTIRELY different scam(!)- Thank you, sir.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12You like to kid around with her?

0:33:12 > 0:33:19- How do you mean?- Tell jokes?- Sure. - Maybe flirt a little, make a pass?

0:33:19 > 0:33:21Sometimes, kidding around. >

0:33:21 > 0:33:27- It kinda gets on her nerves. - Sometimes she kids you back?- Yeah.

0:33:27 > 0:33:33She'll tell an off-colour joke? Come on, she's no prude, is she?

0:33:33 > 0:33:37- She kids on.- About sex? - Just foolin'.

0:33:37 > 0:33:43- Did YOU ever have sex with her? - Me?- Yeah.- No.- Never wanted to?

0:33:43 > 0:33:47Well...I...no.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52- You never thought about it?- Maybe.

0:33:52 > 0:33:55You've propositioned her, though?

0:33:55 > 0:34:00- This is personal, your Honour. - You will answer the questions.

0:34:03 > 0:34:06Well, I've asked her out.

0:34:06 > 0:34:13- And you've made innuendos to her about wanting to have sex? - ..OK, the answer's "yes"!

0:34:13 > 0:34:20- She made the same kind of innuendo right back to you?- No, not really.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22What did she do!?

0:34:22 > 0:34:28- She was drunk. It meant nothing. - What didn't?- What she said.

0:34:28 > 0:34:33- She was drinking...depressed... - I know what that's like.

0:34:33 > 0:34:38- Did she say she wanted to sleep with you?- But she didn't mean it.

0:34:38 > 0:34:42She was lonely. I'm telling you! >

0:34:44 > 0:34:47She didn't mean anything! >

0:34:47 > 0:34:50Anyway, I told her "no". >

0:34:51 > 0:34:55You must live up to your word.

0:34:55 > 0:34:59Put the money away for a few months.

0:34:59 > 0:35:04I wouldn't even open the envelope. Amanda...

0:35:04 > 0:35:10< If something happens you can say you got the money from me.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12Isn't that right?

0:35:12 > 0:35:14Grace...

0:35:15 > 0:35:18AND... Mrs Lacey...

0:35:20 > 0:35:23Oh, thank you, Mr Singleton.

0:35:24 > 0:35:30Oh, I've given you an envelope with my letterhead on it. I'll put it in another envelope.

0:35:30 > 0:35:37- Oh, that's all right.- I insist. Prevention is better than cure.

0:35:37 > 0:35:40We should take no chances.

0:35:40 > 0:35:46These drug men are animals. I don't want to put you at risk.

0:35:48 > 0:35:50Thank you.

0:35:50 > 0:35:55- I feel better now. - < That concludes our business.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58Mrs Lacey...?

0:35:58 > 0:36:02- I forgot - you're all under arrest. - Aw, NO!

0:36:02 > 0:36:04What!?

0:36:04 > 0:36:09Mrs Stakowiski! Last time I saw you you ran a gypsy game in Harlem.

0:36:10 > 0:36:14CHAOTIC RECRIMINATIONS

0:36:14 > 0:36:17What is that paper doing there!?

0:36:20 > 0:36:26- Did she ever complain to you about Capt. Hennessey?- Many times.

0:36:26 > 0:36:33On one occasion she was so worried that she cried. Things have to get very tough for her to cry.

0:36:33 > 0:36:41- Could the witness be admonished to keep her comments to herself? - So admonished.

0:36:41 > 0:36:46Yes, sir. Another time she arrived at my apartment needing taxi fare.

0:36:46 > 0:36:55He'd told her a witness would meet them at a restaurant. It was a lie, to lure her there.

0:36:55 > 0:37:01When she refused him, he became so abusive she had to take a taxi.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04What state was she in?

0:37:04 > 0:37:11She was upset that she couldn't get through to him that she wanted a professional relationship.

0:37:11 > 0:37:15- Conclusion and hearsay!- Over-ruled.

0:37:17 > 0:37:21- No further questions. - Detective Lacey...

0:37:21 > 0:37:28- is your partner a good cop? - In my opinion, the best. - She's effective?- Very.

0:37:28 > 0:37:34- She gets what she wants?- Yes. - No matter what it takes?

0:37:34 > 0:37:36I wouldn't say that.

0:37:36 > 0:37:42Have you seen her flirt to get what she wants?

0:37:43 > 0:37:48I...wouldn't say...

0:37:48 > 0:37:53I have a statement from one Douglas Burdinski,

0:37:53 > 0:37:59who Detective Cagney agreed to date in order to exchange information.

0:37:59 > 0:38:03- It's no big deal... - Has she many boyfriends?

0:38:07 > 0:38:09- Some...- She go out a lot?

0:38:09 > 0:38:12She's young and healthy. Why not?

0:38:12 > 0:38:16Does she drink on these dates?

0:38:16 > 0:38:19I don't know. I'm no chaperone.

0:38:19 > 0:38:29- But you've seen her come in to the precinct with a hangover? - No, sir.- Never?- Maybe once.

0:38:29 > 0:38:35Once, I see. Did she ever tell you she wanted to date Capt. Hennessey?

0:38:35 > 0:38:41- No.- Never?- No!- She never told you she found the Captain attractive?

0:38:41 > 0:38:47- You are under oath.- ..I recall she said she thought he was, yes.

0:38:47 > 0:38:54- Thank you... - But she didn't want to date him, because they worked together.

0:38:54 > 0:38:59- He's putting everything in the worst light!- Thank you.

0:39:01 > 0:39:04Go on, Captain Hennessey.

0:39:04 > 0:39:09I WAS attracted to her. After all, I'm human.

0:39:09 > 0:39:14I'm divorced and I'd like to find a nice girl to be with.

0:39:14 > 0:39:22I have a policy never to date the women I work with. But this was a temporary assignment.

0:39:22 > 0:39:29I thought I'd pursue it only when we weren't working together any more.

0:39:29 > 0:39:33- What happened at the restaurant? - We had a drink.

0:39:33 > 0:39:40She joked about not being turned on by her partner before. I laughed, because her partner was a woman.

0:39:40 > 0:39:46She asked me if I felt the same way and if I wanted to sleep with her.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49- How did you respond?- (He's lying!)

0:39:49 > 0:39:54I said "Yes", as soon as we weren't working together any more.

0:39:54 > 0:40:00She said "Why put off till tomorrow what feels good today?"

0:40:00 > 0:40:03- Then what?- Well, I'm no saint.

0:40:03 > 0:40:09- She...put her hand on my leg. - You're a damned liar!

0:40:09 > 0:40:13- Sit down!- But he's LYING!

0:40:13 > 0:40:16Admonished. Sit DOWN, Detective!

0:40:18 > 0:40:26- DID you go to bed with her? - I probably would have except for what she said then.

0:40:26 > 0:40:33She said she could take care of my...libido, and I could take care of her career.

0:40:33 > 0:40:39She wanted an assignment on Major Cases for going to bed with me.

0:40:39 > 0:40:44- That was instant turn-off.- Bastard!

0:40:44 > 0:40:46You filthy, lying...

0:40:46 > 0:40:50Detective, you are close to contempt!

0:40:50 > 0:40:54These outbursts do your case no good.

0:40:54 > 0:40:56You will be seated and be quiet.

0:40:56 > 0:41:04- I will not tolerate another of these outbursts. Counsellor, continue.- Thank you.

0:41:04 > 0:41:08Now, you're back in the restaurant.

0:41:08 > 0:41:15Detective Cagney has suggested exchanging sexual favours for professional ones. Then what?

0:41:15 > 0:41:21- I came down hard on her.- How? - Well, I'm naive but I'm no fool.

0:41:21 > 0:41:30I said the whole thing made me sick, like I was a john and she a hooker. She got mad and stormed out.

0:41:30 > 0:41:35Next day she said "Nobody calls me a whore and gets away with it!"

0:41:35 > 0:41:38Thank you.

0:41:39 > 0:41:45It stinks. But 5 years ago it was impossible to call a man like this.

0:41:45 > 0:41:50Now it's only ugly and maybe in 5 years it'll be fair.

0:41:50 > 0:41:58- I'm putting my career on the line and come off looking like I need penicillin!- It wasn't that bad.

0:41:58 > 0:42:07I tell rape victims to testify for the good of all women and to stop feeling like a victim!

0:42:07 > 0:42:12I should call them up and apologise!

0:42:12 > 0:42:21- When something like this happens you have no choice but to get up and tell the truth.- Come on!

0:42:21 > 0:42:26You saw him! It's not stopping him one bit!

0:42:30 > 0:42:35- (Damn it!) - Hey, take it easy.- Damn him!

0:42:35 > 0:42:43Why don't you come and have dinner? Harve is defrosting some of that famous spaghetti sauce of his.

0:42:43 > 0:42:49There's nothing like starch when you're depressed. Christine!

0:42:49 > 0:42:54Christine...! I HATE when she does this!

0:42:55 > 0:42:58Em...one more.

0:42:58 > 0:43:02No, forget it... Cheque, please.

0:43:15 > 0:43:21- How'd you find me?- I'm a detective. Can I come in?- My boy's sleeping.

0:43:21 > 0:43:26- What if I promise not to scream (?) - I've nothing more to say to you.

0:43:26 > 0:43:34Look, I know you must feel lousy about what's happening. Why else would you hang around that court?

0:43:52 > 0:43:57No answer! I tried her home and the precinct.

0:43:57 > 0:44:02- She's not here by 9.30, that's it. - She'll be here.

0:44:02 > 0:44:05I was a steamroller last night.

0:44:05 > 0:44:11It's a shame. With her corroboration I think we could have nailed him.

0:44:11 > 0:44:14She'll be here.

0:44:14 > 0:44:20- Let's get it over with. - Lambs to the slaughter! - Not that bad.

0:44:20 > 0:44:27True. They could've found Sister Angela. She'd have told them I kissed Larry Sadoff in 3rd Grade!

0:44:27 > 0:44:30Cagney...!

0:44:38 > 0:44:44- Paula Eastman, Sergeant Ledding and Mary Beth Lacey.- Hi.- Hi.

0:44:44 > 0:44:47Officer, thank you for coming.

0:44:47 > 0:44:51- Still our word against his. - BOTH of us.

0:44:54 > 0:44:56Ready?

0:44:56 > 0:44:59- We're ready.- OK.
