0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Hiya.- Hiya.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18That nicer than the alarm?

0:02:20 > 0:02:22Huh?

0:02:26 > 0:02:29- What are you doing? - Listening for the baby.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33- There's nothing to hear for months. - My kid's smart, a fast learner.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38There, there. Did you hear that? Huh?

0:02:39 > 0:02:43- Yeah.- Ah!- It's my stomach growling. I'm starving.

0:02:43 > 0:02:48I tell you what, you stay right there, I'll make breakfast for us.

0:02:48 > 0:02:52Blueberry waffles, Canadian bacon, strawberries and cream. Hm?

0:02:54 > 0:02:56- You know what I would really like? - What?

0:02:58 > 0:03:02A four-minute egg and a piece of rye toast.

0:03:02 > 0:03:03Four-minute egg?

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Four-minute egg.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Four-minute egg, I don't know.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Mary Beth, I would appreciate it

0:03:10 > 0:03:12if you got some strange cravings like other women.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14- OK, honey.- Ah!

0:03:16 > 0:03:20- Harv?- What?- Can you whip up some moo goo gai pan for me?

0:03:20 > 0:03:22SHE CHUCKLES

0:03:27 > 0:03:30This is a pretty interesting menu, Marcus.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33Except it doesn't have the usual English translation.

0:03:35 > 0:03:39- You seen Cagney yet? - Aren't you expecting somebody, sir?

0:03:39 > 0:03:41No.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46This is a nice place. I just might take someone here for dinner myself.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53Marcus, what the hell is, er...calamari aglio olio?

0:03:53 > 0:03:57Calamari, Victor. That's squid with garlic.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01What about lumache di mare?

0:04:01 > 0:04:04Lumache di mare. Snails from the sea.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Here she comes.

0:04:14 > 0:04:18Here they are, boys and girls, your basic counterfeit jeans.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21Give me a couple of minutes to make my buy before you move in.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25Remember, the magic words are hand-stitched pockets.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28Come on, let's go!

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Stay ready, Marcus. These guys are bruisers.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42Excuse me?

0:04:53 > 0:04:56I can't believe it. Looks just like the real thing.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Nice. Real nice.

0:04:58 > 0:05:03- Give me that!- No! No! - Give it to me!- No! No! No!

0:05:05 > 0:05:07Hey, you!

0:05:07 > 0:05:10You got any with hand-stitched pockets?

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Lady, can you hear me? I'm a cop!

0:05:12 > 0:05:15Nobody's going to hurt you! I'm a cop, I've got her.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20All right, now listen, listen. She's all right, I've got her.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26I just really love the hand-stitched pockets.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Take this here and put pressure. Keep putting pressure on there.

0:05:33 > 0:05:37You, come here. Put that under her head.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39Keep her talking, keep her awake.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42You hang on, lady, we're going to get you out of here.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49Car 21 to Central, request an ambulance at 8th and Mercer.

0:05:49 > 0:05:50Repeat, 8th and Mercer.

0:05:50 > 0:05:54Do you have any others with hand-stitched pockets?

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Look, lady, how many times have I got to tell you?

0:05:57 > 0:06:00What you see is what you get.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05Oh, I sure love the hand-stitched pockets.

0:06:05 > 0:06:0610-4.

0:06:14 > 0:06:15Stop! Police!

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Victor! Enough!

0:06:41 > 0:06:44SIRENS WAIL

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Mouth open, mouth open.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55How many pairs are you going to buy? How many?

0:06:55 > 0:06:57100 pair

0:06:57 > 0:07:00of Cavalli jeans?!

0:07:00 > 0:07:04And no collar. What do you suggest I tell Samuels?

0:07:04 > 0:07:06Tell him your troops deserted you.

0:07:06 > 0:07:10I'm still stuck with 100 pairs of jeans.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13The lady that was stabbed, she died.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16- Oh, man, that stinks. - Yeah, it stinks.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19Why did she put up such a fight for her purse, anyway?

0:07:19 > 0:07:22- She should've let it go.- She just cashed her Social Security cheque.

0:07:24 > 0:07:28Well, at least we got the guy who did it, thanks to that busboy.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30Yeah. Eduardo Carrena. He was great, wasn't he?

0:07:30 > 0:07:32That perp was twice his size, beating the hell out of him.

0:07:32 > 0:07:36- And that little guy held on.- And he didn't hesitate, not for a second.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38He saw a stabbing, took off after the guy.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41- Not many people would've done that. - Doesn't sound like a New Yorker.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43SHE LAUGHS

0:07:43 > 0:07:45No, I'm serious here, Christine.

0:07:45 > 0:07:49I think Eduardo Carrena deserves some recognition for what he did.

0:07:49 > 0:07:53He helped us catch a murderer and he risked his own life doing it.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55What do you want to do, give him a medal?

0:07:56 > 0:08:00Yeah. That's exactly what I want to do.

0:08:02 > 0:08:03APPLAUSE

0:08:03 > 0:08:07On behalf of the Community Watch programme, Austin Grande!

0:08:13 > 0:08:16For outstanding heroism in assisting police officers

0:08:16 > 0:08:18in the city of New York, Eddie Carrena.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22- APPLAUSE - Eddie!- OK, Eddie, baby!

0:08:24 > 0:08:26- Isn't this terrific?- Very nice.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29- It makes you kind of proud, like it's your kid.- I know what you mean.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35SHE SPEAKS SPANISH

0:08:39 > 0:08:40Gracias, senora.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44For service to the city of New York, Christopher Elcrook.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46APPLAUSE

0:08:50 > 0:08:53- You must be very proud, Eduardo. - Please, call me Eddie.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55You're Americanising yourself. Good for you.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58Now, where are you from originally?

0:08:58 > 0:09:02Well, um...we lived in Detroit for a while and then we came to New York.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06Eddie, you risked your life in order to apprehend a killer.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08Can you tell us why?

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Well, wherever I live, I'm going to try to make it a better place.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17This is Joyce Farren, together with Eddie Carrena, Honours Day 1985.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19OK, boys, let's get the other recipients.

0:09:19 > 0:09:23- Thank you, Mr Carrena. Good luck to you.- Thank you very much.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25Hey!

0:09:27 > 0:09:29Mr Carrena, on behalf of the 14th Precinct,

0:09:29 > 0:09:31I'd like to thank you for what you did.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Thank you very much. Everybody is so nice.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35But I don't think I'm so special.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Oh, yes, sir, you are. You're a real hero.

0:09:38 > 0:09:43Well...maybe I think I'm just an ordinary hero, yes?

0:09:45 > 0:09:48Good luck, huh? Take care of each other.

0:09:51 > 0:09:5340 a pair for a label on a tuchas.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56I agree, Lieutenant. I don't care what's sewn onto the pants,

0:09:56 > 0:09:59it's what's poured into the pants that interests me.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Well, the city of New York spent a small fortune on counterfeit

0:10:02 > 0:10:05designer jeans and not one damn pair is going to fit me.

0:10:05 > 0:10:09It would be nice if you could make a few collars, just to balance things out a little bit.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12You know, Lieutenant, this guy saw cops just crawling

0:10:12 > 0:10:15out of the woodwork the first time. Personally, I think he's suspicious.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17Maybe we ought to turn this over to the OCCB.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Oh, nice try, Cagney, nice try.

0:10:19 > 0:10:20Sure, yeah, pass up a tough one

0:10:20 > 0:10:23just so you don't spoil your conviction percentage, huh?

0:10:23 > 0:10:26- Would I do that, Lieutenant? - Come on, Cagney.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30You have already spent too much of this precinct's money to cut and run.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34I want you to set up another drop with this fence and this time, nail him!

0:10:34 > 0:10:36Yes, Lieutenant.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43You know how risky this is for me?

0:10:43 > 0:10:46There are millions at stake in the counterfeit designer clothes racket.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48They find an informant, they cut him up.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51- We understand.- Too thin to fry! - We understand, Mr Fong.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53You messed up.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58You're right, Mr Fong, I was wrong. All right?

0:10:58 > 0:11:01It was just some bad luck. It won't happen again.

0:11:01 > 0:11:06- You hesitated...Sergeant Cagney? - Sergeant, that's right.

0:11:06 > 0:11:07Sergeant, huh?

0:11:07 > 0:11:11He who hesitates meditates from a horizontal position.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13Do you want to help us out here or not?

0:11:13 > 0:11:17These creeps cost me 1,000 a week in sales! Huh?

0:11:17 > 0:11:20You know, I used to sew fake designer clothes

0:11:20 > 0:11:24for 2 a day at a Taiwan sweatshop. So what?

0:11:24 > 0:11:28Now some chump going to put me out of business here in America? Huh!

0:11:28 > 0:11:30- Maybe God is punishing me. - We will fix it, Mr Fong.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33Do you want to help me out, or shall I just get somebody else?

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Why don't you just level with me?

0:11:35 > 0:11:39All right, but you better not screw up again, or we're all history.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41We'll find him, Mr Fong.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45A fake business card won't be enough to fool him any more.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49This time he'll want to meet you at your own boutique.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52- How am I supposed to get a boutique? - Well, that's your problem!

0:11:54 > 0:11:57Hey, you call me when you find a shop.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59I'll contact him then, but only then!

0:11:59 > 0:12:05- Otherwise, it's a royal waste of time.- Thank you, Mr Fong.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18We could ask Samuels to rent us a space.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21Oh, come on, he's not going to give us another nickel for this sting.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24And where are we going to get the merchandise?

0:12:24 > 0:12:25We could clean out your closet.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28You've got enough stuff to fill a boutique.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30- Major exaggeration. - Statement of fact.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Are we dead in the water here, or do you have a better suggestion?

0:12:35 > 0:12:38Yes. Let's figure it out over a glass of milk.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41- OK. I'll treat.- Oh, no, Christine, that's not necessary.

0:12:41 > 0:12:46Just because you've got a closet like Marie Antoinette doesn't mean you have to treat.

0:12:46 > 0:12:49- It's a glass of milk.- Want to try that place Eddie Carrena works?

0:12:52 > 0:12:54That's almost 25 blocks from here for a glass of milk?

0:12:54 > 0:12:57Christine, the man is our only witness.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00We should see if he received his subpoena yet.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25- Two for lunch?- Could you sit us near Eddie Carrena's station, please?

0:13:26 > 0:13:29- I'm sorry, but that's impossible. - I beg your pardon?

0:13:31 > 0:13:33Some immigration agent saw Eddie on TV.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36They came in here yesterday and took him away.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08HE SIGHS

0:14:12 > 0:14:14Mary Beth, it is 2:00am.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17- Harv, what do you think of that sofa? - Well, it's...

0:14:17 > 0:14:19I'm figuring out what we'll do when the baby comes.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21I think we're going to need a sofa bed.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24We come in here, we get rid of that coffee table.

0:14:24 > 0:14:27End table goes here, this one goes there.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30TV goes over there and the bookshelf...

0:14:31 > 0:14:34What do you think we ought to do with that bookshelf, Harv?

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Mary Beth, the baby will sleep in our room for a while.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39- After that, we will just get a bigger place.- Right.- Right.

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Now, would you just please stop playing interior decorator?

0:14:42 > 0:14:44- I'm not done, Harv. - Would you stop lifting this stuff?!

0:14:44 > 0:14:47This stuff is heavy. Would you please come to bed?

0:14:47 > 0:14:49Harvey, I'm trying to work something out.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51Let me tell you what you're trying to work out.

0:14:51 > 0:14:53What happened to Eddie is not your fault!

0:14:53 > 0:14:55What about his wife and kids?

0:14:55 > 0:14:58Think how afraid they must be tonight being separated like that.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Mary Beth, you cannot make it all better tonight.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Where do you think he is, Harv?

0:15:02 > 0:15:04I tried every damn detention centre.

0:15:04 > 0:15:05They've never of Eddie Carrena.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07They said maybe he was still in process,

0:15:07 > 0:15:09whatever the hell that means.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11You think they shipped him back already?

0:15:11 > 0:15:13Honey, you could not help what happened.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16If I hadn't have decided that he needed some stupid medal then the INS

0:15:16 > 0:15:18would never know that he existed.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20- I have to find him.- Not tonight.

0:15:21 > 0:15:22OK? Not tonight.

0:15:24 > 0:15:25Come to bed.

0:15:25 > 0:15:26OK?

0:15:48 > 0:15:50He's our only eyewitness.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53Looks like you folks got here just in the nick of time.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56It would have been bad news if I had blown your case for you.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58We were just about to put him on the bus to the airport

0:15:58 > 0:16:00- and send him home. - Home?- Chile.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03- You guys work pretty fast. - The whole process takes three days.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Oh, by the way he'll still have to spend his nights here even

0:16:06 > 0:16:08when he's testifying for the grand jury.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12- No bail?- No chance. Besides, we're doing you a favour.

0:16:12 > 0:16:13You can't deny him bail.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Look, Eddie knows we're shipping him

0:16:15 > 0:16:17back to Chile as soon as he testifies.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19If we let him go on his own recognisance you'll never

0:16:19 > 0:16:20see him again.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23And your killer'll be walking the streets.

0:16:33 > 0:16:34You got ten minutes.

0:16:39 > 0:16:40Mr Carrena, sit down.

0:16:44 > 0:16:45Please.

0:16:55 > 0:16:56Hello, Eddie.

0:16:58 > 0:17:02Is there something that we can get for you, or anything you need?

0:17:10 > 0:17:15- Did you tell them?- Tell them what? - About my wife and children.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17- We wouldn't do that to you. - You are the police.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19That isn't part of our job.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36- I'm sorry.- It's OK.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39It's just that I'm afraid.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42- We understand.- Do you?

0:17:45 > 0:17:47If I go back to Chile they will kill me.

0:17:49 > 0:17:54- What?- I was a member of one sindicato de trabajadores.

0:17:54 > 0:17:55Labour Union.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59All we wanted to do was make things better for us.

0:18:01 > 0:18:02There was a lot of trouble.

0:18:04 > 0:18:05We had to leave the country.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09We can never go back there.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14When we come to this country I said to Adelita...

0:18:17 > 0:18:22..here, we are going to be free.

0:18:23 > 0:18:24Free.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29But I guess freedom is like gold.

0:18:30 > 0:18:31There's just not enough for everybody.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35That's not true, Mr Carrena.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38But sometimes we have to fight for it.

0:18:39 > 0:18:43Now, a murder trial takes months. Months.

0:18:43 > 0:18:47And we have plenty of time to find you a great attorney.

0:18:47 > 0:18:48Christine has a lawyer friend.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52I'm sure he know some experts in the immigration field.

0:18:52 > 0:18:53I don't have money to pay.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Well, a lot of these men work pro bono.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59Pro bono means for good. It means they work for nothing.

0:18:59 > 0:19:03And if we can't get them to do that we'll figure out a way to pay for it.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Mr Carrena, you have friends here.

0:19:07 > 0:19:08There is hope.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12Isn't that so, Sergeant Cagney?

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Yeah.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22Thank you, my friends.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Yeah.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39That's right. Normal bail procedures don't hold for illegals.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42They're not citizens so they don't possess our civil rights.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44What if the trial goes six, seven months? A year?

0:19:44 > 0:19:46That's what we call tough luck.

0:19:46 > 0:19:51If the immigration judge wants to Eddie will spend every one of those nights in cells.

0:19:51 > 0:19:54- Locked up.- He has a family. - They can visit him.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56They can't visit him in an INS detention centre.

0:19:56 > 0:20:00- They're illegals also.- Things are tough all over. What can I say?

0:20:01 > 0:20:03- Hey, the trial will buy the kid some time, right?- Time?

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Labour certification takes two to three years.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09Of course, that's a useless strategy as you have to be able to

0:20:09 > 0:20:12prove there are not enough qualified Americans to fill Eddie's job.

0:20:12 > 0:20:17That may work with aerospace engineers but waiters, no.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19He can't go back to Chile. He might get shot.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Look, what about political refugee status?

0:20:21 > 0:20:24Only works with people running away from our enemies, not our friends.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26Let me understand this.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Getting shot by our enemies is not OK.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30- Getting shot by our friends is OK? - Look, I'm just a lawyer and

0:20:30 > 0:20:33I'm telling you they're never going to grant them refugee status.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36I don't have time to pursue a strategy that can't work.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39Hey, I've got a full desk too. So you tell us what WILL work.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44Are you on a first-name basis with any senators or Congress people?

0:20:45 > 0:20:46- No.- You?

0:20:49 > 0:20:50Not any more.

0:20:50 > 0:20:54My suggestion, get to know the legislator of your choice

0:20:54 > 0:20:55and pronto.

0:20:55 > 0:20:57The way I see it, the only way you'll be able to save Eddie is to

0:20:57 > 0:20:58get a private bill.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01One that applies only to his special set of circumstances passed

0:21:01 > 0:21:03through the Senate or the House of Representatives.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07Maybe Eddie's act of heroism will get the attention of one

0:21:07 > 0:21:09of these politicos and we get the ball rolling.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11I'll do the best I can from this end of it.

0:21:11 > 0:21:16- What are the chances of a bill like this passing?- Oh, slim and none.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20TRAIN THUNDERS

0:21:29 > 0:21:34Look, I know how you feel. And we did what we could. Right?

0:21:34 > 0:21:36We're not social workers.

0:21:37 > 0:21:40What are you saying? Don't get too concerned?

0:21:40 > 0:21:42We're the reason he's in there.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45The hell we are. We didn't bring Eddie to America.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48He came here of his own free will, illegally.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52You want to turn this into one of your guilt trips - fine, Mary Beth,

0:21:52 > 0:21:53but do not lay it on me.

0:21:59 > 0:22:00I feel for the guy.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04It's no reason for us to go on some mission of mercy.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06We've got our own job we have to do.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08It's not a question of mercy, Christine.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10It's a question of justice.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13Mary Beth, I feel sorry for all of the broken-hearted

0:22:13 > 0:22:15people of the world too and would love to see them

0:22:15 > 0:22:18come to America, but the sad truth is they can't.

0:22:18 > 0:22:19There aren't enough jobs.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22There's not enough of this good life to go around.

0:22:22 > 0:22:25Hell, we've got tens of thousands of immigrants illegally

0:22:25 > 0:22:27pouring into this country every day.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30Willing to work for close to zip and taking jobs from our citizens.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33Now, I know people like poor old Eddie deserve a break

0:22:33 > 0:22:35but somewhere it's got to stop.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39100 years ago they were saying that about people named Cagney.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41Whatever happened to "Give me your poor

0:22:41 > 0:22:43"and huddled masses yearning to be free"?

0:22:43 > 0:22:46They're standing in unemployment lines.

0:22:50 > 0:22:51Can you drop me at the subway, please?

0:22:53 > 0:22:54Oh, come on...

0:22:54 > 0:22:56I want to deliver Mr Carrena's message to his wife

0:22:56 > 0:23:01and I wouldn't want to force you to go on another mission of mercy.

0:23:03 > 0:23:06- Over here.- What's the address?

0:23:22 > 0:23:24PEOPLE SHOUT IN SPANISH

0:23:44 > 0:23:46MUSIC PLAYS

0:24:03 > 0:24:06Adelita? Adelita?

0:24:08 > 0:24:09Que tal?

0:24:12 > 0:24:15- Where are they?- Flew the coop.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18We've been waiting around here for them to return.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20They left most of their stuff but no luck.

0:24:21 > 0:24:24- I don't think they're coming back here.- Come on, Mary Beth.

0:24:24 > 0:24:26Let's get out of here.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29You must get a real kick out of your work, huh?

0:24:29 > 0:24:31- Hunting down innocent women and children.- Mary Beth.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34Look, I do my job just like you do yours.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38Besides, we didn't want to see a family split up.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42A real humanitarian, aren't you?

0:24:42 > 0:24:44Detective Lacey.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57- Hey, Lacey. You going to have amniocentesis?- Huh?

0:24:58 > 0:25:01The amniocentesis test for your baby, are you going to have it?

0:25:01 > 0:25:02What's it to you?

0:25:06 > 0:25:08Never mind, Sergeant. I get it.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14- Mary Beth, where have you been? - I tried everywhere I could think of.

0:25:14 > 0:25:18Social services, legal aid, welfare, Latino organisations.

0:25:18 > 0:25:21Mrs Carrena and her children have disappeared through a crack somehow.

0:25:21 > 0:25:22Can you let it go for now?

0:25:22 > 0:25:25We have to meet Astrid at a coffee shop in eight minutes. Let's go.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Yeah, right.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31Lacey, wait a second.

0:25:33 > 0:25:39- Here.- What's that for?- Give it to Eddie's wife or his lawyer.- Thanks.

0:25:41 > 0:25:42Don't tell anybody, OK?

0:25:44 > 0:25:46- Thank you, Victor. - Mary Beth, let's move it.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49We only need your shop for a couple of hours.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51Business can go on as usual.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53Mary Beth gets to play the sales girl and she's thrilled.

0:25:53 > 0:25:55Right, Mary Beth?

0:25:55 > 0:25:59- Oh, yeah. Thrilled.- You're trying to tell me there's no danger here?

0:25:59 > 0:26:02No, the guy just wants to check us out to make sure we're legit.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05There's not going to be a drop so there won't be any bust.

0:26:05 > 0:26:06Nothing's going to happen.

0:26:06 > 0:26:07Listen,

0:26:07 > 0:26:10if it weren't for you I might still be walking the streets somewhere.

0:26:10 > 0:26:12You guys gave me a break.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16But setting some guy up for a fall, that's...

0:26:17 > 0:26:18That's just not my style.

0:26:31 > 0:26:36OK, you win. What can I say, my place is your place.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45Oh, now, this would be good on me, huh?

0:26:46 > 0:26:48Uh-huh. In about a year.

0:26:50 > 0:26:51Thank you very much, Christine.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00Nope. Not even with 50% off. That's two weeks' groceries.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04- Good morning.- Good morning.

0:27:07 > 0:27:10- Nice place you got here. - Yes, thank you.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13- Is there someplace private we could talk?- Certainly.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15- How about right in the back there? - All right.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21Oh, Miss Mary Beth, watch the floor, would you?

0:27:25 > 0:27:28- Yes, ma'am.- Mary Beth, would you like to help this gentleman?

0:27:28 > 0:27:29I'll be right back.

0:27:33 > 0:27:38- May I help you, sir?- Yes, do you have this in a size 16?

0:27:38 > 0:27:40I think we do.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42Yes.

0:27:43 > 0:27:49Yes, here it is. This is a very pretty dress. Very feminine.

0:27:49 > 0:27:50- Yes.- She'll love this.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55- What would you recommend to complement this ensemble?- Um...

0:27:57 > 0:27:59Well, maybe a belt would offset...

0:28:03 > 0:28:06- Or maybe a scarf? - What about pantyhose?

0:28:06 > 0:28:08This colour is so unique I don't think we'd want

0:28:08 > 0:28:10any of the traditional shades, do you?

0:28:11 > 0:28:16Oh, no. Certainly not. Perhaps something in a purple?

0:28:17 > 0:28:18Purple?

0:28:19 > 0:28:21You think we'd look good in that?

0:28:21 > 0:28:25Yes, I think a purple would go great with our eyes.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31I'd have melted into the wall-to-wall carpet.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35Reminds me of this story of this guy I went out with once.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37- You've not going to believe this one.- Was this the senator?

0:28:37 > 0:28:39I don't want to hear it. PHONE RINGS

0:28:39 > 0:28:40Detective Lacey, 14th.

0:28:43 > 0:28:45Yes. I've got it.

0:28:45 > 0:28:49No, of course not, Father. Right away. Thank you.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54- Christine, let's go.- What's up? - That was Father Tate.

0:28:54 > 0:28:58Remember the priest that helped us find that Salvadoran woman last year?

0:28:58 > 0:29:02He's got Eddie's wife and kids in a safe house. They're illegals.

0:29:07 > 0:29:09Come on.

0:29:09 > 0:29:12Mary Beth, I have to stay here and wait for a call from Astrid.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15Garth's supposed to be calling the boutique at any time to

0:29:15 > 0:29:18let us where he's going to be making the drop.

0:29:19 > 0:29:21This is police work, Mary Beth.

0:29:24 > 0:29:26Whereas what I'm doing is social work, right?

0:29:31 > 0:29:32Mary Beth!

0:29:36 > 0:29:37Good luck.

0:30:13 > 0:30:15Nice to see you again, Detective Lacey.

0:30:15 > 0:30:17- Nice to see you, Father.- George.

0:30:18 > 0:30:24No-one stays here for very long. It's...just a way station.

0:30:24 > 0:30:26The campesino comes to see me in the church,

0:30:26 > 0:30:28thinking I can offer him sanctuary.

0:30:28 > 0:30:31What he doesn't know is sanctuary hasn't been honoured

0:30:31 > 0:30:32since the 14th century.

0:30:34 > 0:30:35So I have to bring him to places like this.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40Where do they go after they leave here?

0:30:40 > 0:30:43Well, we try to set them up in someplace decent, somewhere.

0:30:44 > 0:30:45Find them a job,

0:30:45 > 0:30:48work through the legal system, if we can.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50There's hope for a better life for many of them.

0:30:52 > 0:30:54I guess what we do best is buy them some time.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58But a few of them, the most endangered ones,

0:30:58 > 0:31:01have to stay on the Underground Railway for a while.

0:31:01 > 0:31:03What? You mean like slaves in the Civil War?

0:31:03 > 0:31:04Same idea.

0:31:04 > 0:31:07It's kind of an interfaith network of safe houses.

0:31:07 > 0:31:11But don't let anyone hear you say that you heard that from me.

0:31:11 > 0:31:15The US Attorney's office is coming down pretty hard on us right now.

0:31:15 > 0:31:16HE LAUGHS

0:31:16 > 0:31:18What did you expect, Detective? The Ritz?

0:31:20 > 0:31:23I can't exactly take up a collection at Mass

0:31:23 > 0:31:25to fumigate an illegal safe house,

0:31:25 > 0:31:28so we have to learn to live with our furry brethren.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33Adelita?

0:31:33 > 0:31:35Padre Tate y Senora Lacey.

0:31:37 > 0:31:41Adelita, Senora Lacey trae un mensaje de parte de su esposo.

0:31:44 > 0:31:45I'll leave you now.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48Um...I don't speak too much Spanish, Father.

0:31:48 > 0:31:50Well, she doesn't speak too much English, either.

0:31:50 > 0:31:53- So you'll do fine. - Stick around, huh?

0:31:53 > 0:31:56No, I'm on duty tonight, so I have to keep an eye out.

0:31:56 > 0:31:58Go on. You'll be fine.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05Senora, I want you to know,

0:32:05 > 0:32:07su esposo esta bien.

0:32:07 > 0:32:08Oh! Mi esposo...

0:32:10 > 0:32:12Cuando saldra?

0:32:12 > 0:32:14Cuando lo puedo ver?

0:32:14 > 0:32:15Oh. Um, no comprendo.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17Um...slower.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19- Hablar mas lento, OK?- OK.

0:32:21 > 0:32:25When...I...see...mi esposo?

0:32:26 > 0:32:28When? Um...

0:32:28 > 0:32:30Well...I don't know when.

0:32:33 > 0:32:38But Eddie wanted me to tell you that you're in his dreams

0:32:38 > 0:32:40and you're in his heart.

0:32:43 > 0:32:46Lord...here we go. Um...

0:32:46 > 0:32:50Esta en sus suenos y en su corazon.

0:32:52 > 0:32:53And, um...

0:32:55 > 0:32:56He longs to hold you.

0:32:58 > 0:33:02Uh...hold you, Adelita, eh...

0:33:02 > 0:33:04En su brazos?

0:33:04 > 0:33:06- LAUGHING:- Eduardo...

0:33:06 > 0:33:07Y que mas?

0:33:07 > 0:33:12Um, well, he says that he loves you all very much.

0:33:12 > 0:33:13In Spanish, that would be...

0:33:13 > 0:33:14Love.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16Si.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18Uh...todos mucho.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20And, um...

0:33:21 > 0:33:24He said you'll all be together again soon

0:33:24 > 0:33:25in a happier place.

0:33:25 > 0:33:27En espanol, por favor.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30Oh, si. Um...uh...

0:33:30 > 0:33:32Pronto...

0:33:32 > 0:33:36estaran juntos en un lindo lugar...

0:33:38 > 0:33:40- Your Spanish is very good. - Yeah?

0:33:43 > 0:33:45Gracias. Muchas gracias.

0:33:46 > 0:33:50Um...this...this is for the children, OK?

0:33:50 > 0:33:52Es usted muy generosa.

0:33:52 > 0:33:56And I want you to know everything's going to work out.

0:33:57 > 0:34:00We'll find a way. We'll find a way.

0:34:02 > 0:34:03- OK.- OK.

0:34:07 > 0:34:08OK.

0:34:12 > 0:34:14Mr Dalton?

0:34:14 > 0:34:18Mr Dalton, I want to apologise for my bad manners.

0:34:18 > 0:34:20It's OK. I get it all the time from the bleeding hearts.

0:34:20 > 0:34:24- I was wondering if you could do us a favour, sir.- What's that?

0:34:24 > 0:34:27When Eddie finishes testifying, can we take him to lunch?

0:34:29 > 0:34:31What, you got a thing for this guy?

0:34:31 > 0:34:33No. Eddie's got a "thing" with his immigration lawyer.

0:34:36 > 0:34:39OK. But if he flies the coop, it's on you.

0:34:39 > 0:34:40Yes, sir. Thank you.

0:34:44 > 0:34:45What we've got here, people,

0:34:45 > 0:34:48- is the world's greatest living witness.- Yeah?

0:34:48 > 0:34:51That classy Latin manner, those deep, honest eyes -

0:34:51 > 0:34:53ladies and gentlemen, I give you Steady Eddie Carrena,

0:34:53 > 0:34:55the answer to an overworked DA's prayer.

0:34:55 > 0:34:58I just did what any normal citizen would do in this country, yes?

0:34:58 > 0:34:59Honey, you blew 'em away in there!

0:34:59 > 0:35:02That legal aid lawyer still doesn't know what hit him.

0:35:02 > 0:35:03The man is fantastic.

0:35:03 > 0:35:05Does he leap tall buildings in a single bound?

0:35:05 > 0:35:07Super-Witness! You got it.

0:35:07 > 0:35:08I owe you one, ladies.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11Legal aid's defending a major sleaze-bucket

0:35:11 > 0:35:13and I got somebody my momma would take to church.

0:35:13 > 0:35:16You have a good lunch, you hear?

0:35:16 > 0:35:19And put it on the DA's tab. You guys earned it.

0:35:20 > 0:35:22I think she likes you.

0:35:23 > 0:35:24Let's go.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27Thanks.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35OK - the trial is for real.

0:35:35 > 0:35:38It won't actually begin for about six months,

0:35:38 > 0:35:40so we've bought our precious time.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43So then I stay in jail for another six months?

0:35:43 > 0:35:46Look, it's better than being shipped back to Chile, right?

0:35:47 > 0:35:51Yeah. Now, we've finally made a little progress.

0:35:51 > 0:35:54We've got some local representatives interested in your case

0:35:54 > 0:35:57and I think we may have one of our honourable senators lined up.

0:35:57 > 0:36:00- No kidding! - Looks like that.

0:36:00 > 0:36:02I'm trying to play it from the angle

0:36:02 > 0:36:04that Eddie's performing a major public service living here,

0:36:04 > 0:36:07not to mention the fact he's a decorated hero

0:36:07 > 0:36:09and politicians, they just love that stuff -

0:36:09 > 0:36:12you know, election time, minority vote,

0:36:12 > 0:36:14sharing the limelight, all that good stuff.

0:36:14 > 0:36:17I've arranged for a reporter we know to come and talk to you.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19She wants to do a human interest story on you.

0:36:19 > 0:36:21There's nothing like a little publicity

0:36:21 > 0:36:24to grease up the old wheels of justice.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26You just hang on for a little while longer.

0:36:26 > 0:36:28I think we may be able to nail down the senator,

0:36:28 > 0:36:31the trial ought to give us plenty of time.

0:36:31 > 0:36:32Eddie! Eddie!

0:36:32 > 0:36:34What's wrong with her?

0:36:34 > 0:36:37Eddie Carrena, I want to shake your hand.

0:36:37 > 0:36:40- You are one fantastic witness.- Yes?

0:36:40 > 0:36:42Damn right! We kicked their butt so bad,

0:36:42 > 0:36:45legal aid is ready to accept anything I offer.

0:36:45 > 0:36:47And my boss thinks I'm such a hot number,

0:36:47 > 0:36:49he's moving me up to the Sandrelli case.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51- My career is made! - Wait a minute.

0:36:51 > 0:36:52What are you saying, here?

0:36:52 > 0:36:56This murder's never going to trial. We made a deal.

0:36:56 > 0:37:00We'll wrap it up this afternoon. Congratulations!

0:37:47 > 0:37:50We, uh...just heard the news.

0:37:50 > 0:37:52Look, it isn't easy for us, either.

0:37:53 > 0:37:55I'm sorry, Eddie.

0:37:55 > 0:37:57We'll file for an extension, Mr Carrena,

0:37:57 > 0:37:59just like Mr Phelps said, OK?

0:38:01 > 0:38:03Thank you very much for everything you've done.

0:38:05 > 0:38:06Oh, Eddie, I'm so sorry.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11- Good to see you, Eddie. - Muchas gracias.

0:38:13 > 0:38:14Let's go, Eddie.

0:38:22 > 0:38:24- Agh!- Oh!

0:38:25 > 0:38:27WOMAN SCREAMS

0:38:28 > 0:38:29Eddie!

0:38:34 > 0:38:35- No!- Don't shoot!

0:38:35 > 0:38:37He's not a criminal!

0:38:53 > 0:38:55He's got guts, I'll give him that.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58Lacey!

0:38:59 > 0:39:00Thank you.

0:39:04 > 0:39:07Oh...you did this. I oughta punch you out.

0:39:07 > 0:39:09Watch who you're talking to. Sergeant Cagney, NYPD.

0:39:09 > 0:39:12- What the hell's going on?- Booking somebody. What's it look like?

0:39:16 > 0:39:18OK, what is this?

0:39:18 > 0:39:21- That hooker called. - Gave us the location of the drop.

0:39:21 > 0:39:23- You weren't around, so... - Somebody had to make the collar.

0:39:23 > 0:39:25I couldn't find you.

0:39:25 > 0:39:27I bet you looked real hard, didn't you, Isbecki?

0:39:27 > 0:39:29Christine? Father Tate called.

0:39:29 > 0:39:31Eddie's wife and kids have disappeared from the safe house.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35Nice work, guys. Real nice.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43- You think she's mad? - Mm-hm.

0:39:45 > 0:39:48- This is my third pitcher. - Am I impressed?

0:39:48 > 0:39:50You're going to float out of here, Victor.

0:39:50 > 0:39:53Yeah. Just like my collar.

0:39:53 > 0:39:54Right place at the right time.

0:39:54 > 0:39:56That's the essence of police work, Sergeant.

0:39:56 > 0:39:58They used to call that "lucky."

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Hey, Lieutenant?

0:40:02 > 0:40:05What do you say we innovate a new departmental procedure?

0:40:05 > 0:40:09What do you say we show one arrest on my jacket and one...?

0:40:09 > 0:40:10Sorry, Cagney.

0:40:13 > 0:40:16I mean, what kind of a life are they going to have?

0:40:16 > 0:40:18It's not enough he's an illegal alien.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20Now he's a fugitive from justice, too.

0:40:20 > 0:40:25- Assaulting an INS agent. - Two INS agents.

0:40:25 > 0:40:29That's a federal wrap. FBI will be on his tail.

0:40:30 > 0:40:33Well, where do you go? Where do you hide?

0:40:33 > 0:40:35How's he going to find his family?

0:40:35 > 0:40:37Why couldn't we have just left the guy alone?

0:40:37 > 0:40:38It's a mess, all right.

0:40:38 > 0:40:40I'll find him. I swear I will.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44His wife and his kids, too.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47They can hide in my apartment. Smuggle them to Canada.

0:40:47 > 0:40:51I'll finance their case all the way to the Supreme Court, if I have to.

0:40:53 > 0:40:54God, I'm depressed.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05INS just called.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07They got hold of some FBI files on a Father George Tate.

0:41:07 > 0:41:09You know him, right?

0:41:09 > 0:41:12- Yes.- They think maybe he's hiding Eddie Carrena.

0:41:12 > 0:41:13Found a couple of addresses to check out

0:41:13 > 0:41:15and one of them is in our precinct.

0:41:15 > 0:41:19INS wants a police liaison, so I figured he's your guy.

0:41:19 > 0:41:20You want to be there, right?

0:41:22 > 0:41:23Thank you, Lieutenant.

0:41:25 > 0:41:27Oh, Lacey, do me a favour, will you?

0:41:27 > 0:41:29- Make sure they treat Eddie right. - Yes, sir.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33What do you think you're doing, Isbecki?

0:41:33 > 0:41:36- I'm going with them.- Why? Haven't got work of your own?

0:41:36 > 0:41:39- Want me to give you more? - Lieutenant, it's important to me.

0:41:39 > 0:41:41It's important to me, too. It's being handled.

0:41:41 > 0:41:42You got your own work to do.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44Hey! I've completed all the DD files for today,

0:41:44 > 0:41:46returned all the necessary...

0:41:46 > 0:41:48SIREN BLARES

0:41:52 > 0:41:55Hey! Detective Mary Beth Lacey, 14th squad.

0:41:55 > 0:41:56This is Sergeant Cagney.

0:41:56 > 0:42:00- Agent Ollicker, FBI.- Agent Ollicker, those shotguns will not be necessary.

0:42:00 > 0:42:01This suspect is known to us,

0:42:01 > 0:42:04he was decorated for heroism by the City of New York.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07Detective, it doesn't matter if he was decorated by Ronald Reagan.

0:42:07 > 0:42:08He assaulted two immigration agents.

0:42:08 > 0:42:10In our considered judgment, he's dangerous.

0:42:10 > 0:42:13Now, shall we get on with this? Let's go, boys...

0:42:13 > 0:42:16Would you hang on a second? I have instructions from my Lieutenant.

0:42:16 > 0:42:19Agent Ollicker, we are officials of the City Of New York

0:42:19 > 0:42:20and you can't just roar in here...

0:42:20 > 0:42:22You going to listen to her?

0:42:22 > 0:42:23Agent Dalton!

0:42:25 > 0:42:28Dark up here! Give me some flashlights!

0:42:28 > 0:42:30Agent Dalton, can you get through to that man?

0:42:30 > 0:42:32- He's in charge. - Well, what are we supposed to do?

0:42:38 > 0:42:40Let's get it over with, huh?

0:42:45 > 0:42:47OK, kick it in.

0:42:55 > 0:42:56This place looks deserted.

0:42:56 > 0:42:58If we missed him here, he's long gone.

0:42:58 > 0:42:59Come on.

0:43:09 > 0:43:10FLOORBOARDS CREAK

0:43:34 > 0:43:36CAT MEOWS

0:43:37 > 0:43:38Almost gave me a heart attack.

0:43:38 > 0:43:40Well, must have been the cat we heard. Come on.

0:43:43 > 0:43:46Chris, there's nobody up here. Let's go, huh?

0:44:11 > 0:44:12Yeah, I guess you're right.

0:44:15 > 0:44:17SOMETHING CREAKS

0:44:26 > 0:44:27Let's go, please.

0:44:38 > 0:44:40You have anything up there?

0:44:40 > 0:44:43We're clearing out. You got anything, Cagney?

0:44:50 > 0:44:51Cagney?

0:44:53 > 0:44:54(Nothing...)

0:44:58 > 0:44:59Nothing!
