0:01:21 > 0:01:23MUSIC DROWNS OUT SPEECH
0:01:45 > 0:01:48No, Dr Stanley, not since you called this morning.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Yes, Dr Stanley.
0:01:51 > 0:01:52Mm-hmm.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56We still have the number at the University and the lab.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57Physics Department, right.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Right, right.
0:02:03 > 0:02:04Goodbye, Dr Stanley.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Two days since his car was broken into
0:02:10 > 0:02:13and he can't understand why the thief isn't public enemy number one.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15I hate these pandy andy cases.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Christine, what do you think of this here?
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Fixer upper in Floral Park.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Super clean, four bedrooms.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24Quote, "needs a woman's loving touch to turn this house into a home,"
0:02:24 > 0:02:25unquote.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27- What do you think?- "Fixer upper"?
0:02:27 > 0:02:30I think that's real estate for "falling apart".
0:02:30 > 0:02:32160,000?
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Hey, you get what you pay for, Mary Beth.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37That's what I was hoping.
0:02:37 > 0:02:38PHONE RINGS
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Detective Lacey, Fourteenth Squad.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Oh, hello, Mrs Jacoby. Yes, this is perfect timing.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Yeah. I was just looking through the latest listings.
0:02:49 > 0:02:50Fresh Meadows?
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Oh, we do know the neighbourhood, yes. Yes, I...
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Ah, Victor, this is a second honeymoon.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Cagney, what do you think?
0:02:58 > 0:02:59- Second honeymoon?- Yeah.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03- Paradise Island in the Bahamas is very romantic.- Mmm.
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Scuba-diving ain't bad either.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06I bet you're a water sign.
0:03:06 > 0:03:07Excuse me?
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Your sign. Scorpio, Pisces, Cancer, right?
0:03:10 > 0:03:14Victor, you sound like a throwback to those singles bars in the '70s.
0:03:14 > 0:03:15I bet she's a Scorpio.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18- They always get real cranky when they don't...- I'm an Aries, OK?
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Aries? You're kidding.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23You know, my younger sister is an Aries and wonders
0:03:23 > 0:03:25if she's a reincarnation of Anne Boleyn.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27So when is your birthday, Cagney?
0:03:27 > 0:03:29When's yours, Newman?
0:03:29 > 0:03:31February 3rd, 1958.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33- 1958...?- Aquarius. Aquarius, they are always...
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Oh, you are depressing, Newman.
0:03:35 > 0:03:39So, you have a birthday coming up pretty soon, huh?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Yeah, Cagney, when is your birthday?
0:03:41 > 0:03:45- Exactly.- Maybe I'll send you some flowers, Cagney.
0:03:45 > 0:03:46Be still, my heart.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52This won't make the front page but considering how slow the week
0:03:52 > 0:03:55- has been, I guess it's better than nothing, right?- Who's offering?
0:03:55 > 0:03:56What you got, Sergeant?
0:03:56 > 0:03:58A 61-head paper, courtesy of the 40th Precinct.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01They're holding a suspect who was found with the goods.
0:04:01 > 0:04:02What do you know? Dr Stanley got lucky.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05Yeah, the suspect didn't. He's in the emergency room at Sisters of Hope.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08It's a nice name for a hospital, it's kind of uplifting, you know?
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Now, we give pursuit and this cowboy tries to outrun us.
0:04:14 > 0:04:15Now, we're really travelling when
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Mario Andretti here fails to make a corner.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20He wraps himself around a telephone pole, knocks himself out.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22The guy sitting next to him - a white male -
0:04:22 > 0:04:25jumps out of the passenger side and takes off like a bird.
0:04:25 > 0:04:26A white male who takes off
0:04:26 > 0:04:28- like a bird, did you get...? - 19-20, medium build, 5ft 8",
0:04:28 > 0:04:32light hair cut in a shag, real snappy dresser.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33Two preppy - not my style.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35"Very yuppie." The store owner told us.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37- Hey, isn't everybody?- Thank you, Officer.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Ah, Marshall G. Owens. Sorry, Sarge, your suspect is unconscious
0:04:41 > 0:04:43and currently undergoing medical testing.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Now, Dr Giordano told us he'd let us know as soon as soon as he is
0:04:46 > 0:04:47available for interrogation.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Well, until he lets US know, do we have an idea on the suspect's...
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Jimmy Wilkins, aged 18, occupation - student.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54We found a university ID card.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56- Stolen goods in the car?- Six car stereos sent to the clerk,
0:04:56 > 0:04:59one small metal suitcase sent to the police lab with the DD45A
0:04:59 > 0:05:01for analysis.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03Well, thank you very much, Officer Owens.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05We aim to please, ma'am.
0:05:05 > 0:05:06Mm-hmm, thank you.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- Got something, huh?- Yeah, where the hell do they get these rookies?
0:05:13 > 0:05:16No, I'm talking about the kid running out on his friend.
0:05:16 > 0:05:17When his buddy is hurt and all.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Makes you wonder why he took out of there so fast.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23His buddy's probably got a yellow sheet six feet long.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Just doesn't want to get nailed again, I guess.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29So, tonight Mrs Jacoby's taking us to see this four-bedroom,
0:05:29 > 0:05:32two-and-a-half bath, at Fresh Meadows.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Which is really Flushing,
0:05:34 > 0:05:36but she says Fresh Meadows is more desirable.
0:05:36 > 0:05:37Did you ever hear that?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Uh-uh.
0:05:39 > 0:05:40Oh.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Well, she says the owners are very motivated.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Can't sell the sucker, huh?
0:05:45 > 0:05:47She didn't say that exactly.
0:05:47 > 0:05:48They just lowered the price?
0:05:48 > 0:05:5110,000, which is good for us, we figured.
0:05:52 > 0:05:53You know, for such a terrific house,
0:05:53 > 0:05:56how come they're having a hard time unloading it?
0:05:56 > 0:05:57You got to think about that.
0:06:03 > 0:06:04Mary Beth...
0:06:06 > 0:06:08..think I'm getting crow's feet?
0:06:08 > 0:06:09You?
0:06:11 > 0:06:12Of course not.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16No, I mean right here.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Under my eye, see?- Let me see.
0:06:21 > 0:06:22Those are laugh lines.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27I hate it when you're kind.
0:06:28 > 0:06:29You're cheerful tonight.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32I don't know why I bought this, I hate mauve.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34I think you look very snazzy... except for the wrinkles.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00What do you think?
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Younger?
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Thought you only wore those when you go to bed at night.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08The more I wear them, the better my bite.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13Ah, Christine, I always thought your bite was fine.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15It's your bark that needs a little work.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Almost funny, Mary Beth.
0:07:23 > 0:07:24Almost.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33This is one of the loveliest options of the house.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37The all-purpose finish basement.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50Solid, linoleum floor. There's even a little guest bathroom.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Oh, look. It's a marble sink, look.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57And, there is plenty of room for Harvey to build a patio
0:07:57 > 0:08:00in the backyard without hurting the maple tree, so that we can
0:08:00 > 0:08:02barbecue in the summer.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Like at Brian's house.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Well, not exactly like Brian's house because there's no pool.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09But there is a bathtub and a shower,
0:08:09 > 0:08:11and I'm not talking about a shower over the bath,
0:08:11 > 0:08:14I'm talking about a separate stall shower with these tiles,
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Christine, that are...
0:08:16 > 0:08:18And wait till you see...
0:08:18 > 0:08:20the breakfast nook.
0:08:20 > 0:08:21Ha-ha.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22Well, I don't know, Mary Beth.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25This sounds like Fresh Meadows' answer to the Palace of Versailles.
0:08:25 > 0:08:26Yeah.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29So, are you and Harvey going to make an offer, or not?
0:08:29 > 0:08:30We already did. Ah!
0:08:30 > 0:08:35- Oh, that's great!- Wait, they still might not accept.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38I mean, they could say no, or they could make a counteroffer,
0:08:38 > 0:08:41which they may do because we came in under what they were asking.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45On the other hand, like Mrs Jacoby says, these owners
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- are very motivated.- Motivated, yeah.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51We've got kind of an unusual situation here.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53We understand that Mr Wilkins is still
0:08:53 > 0:08:55in a very serious condition, Doctor.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Yes, well, more serious than we thought.
0:08:57 > 0:08:58He has regained consciousness?
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Briefly, but he went out again about an hour ago.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04I went over the lab tests with pathology to make sure
0:09:04 > 0:09:06we didn't make any mistake.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08They say there's no chance of an error.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10The nurse said that he has a cerebral haemorrhage.
0:09:10 > 0:09:11Inoperable, yes.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15That's small-time compared to this baby.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Wilkins has plutonium in his bloodstream.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20Sir?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22The man's radioactive.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25I'd sure like to know how he got that way.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35We can't talk in there, I can't disturb my colleagues.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Oh, Dr Stanley, I can understand why they'd be disturbed.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Hearing about the burglary, my partner means.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Did you find my suitcase?
0:09:46 > 0:09:50Yes, we did. The thieves had broken into it and those papers -
0:09:50 > 0:09:53your Bible papers that you were so concerned about it - they're gone.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55But guess what the pathologist did find
0:09:55 > 0:09:57when he examined that suitcase of yours in the lab?
0:09:59 > 0:10:01It's contaminated with plutonium.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03So is the kid who stole it.
0:10:03 > 0:10:07Dr Stanley, you neglected to tell us you were transporting plutonium.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10I put it in a regulation type B lead phial.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14- I took every precaution. - There are federal statutes, Doctor,
0:10:14 > 0:10:17controlling the transportation of hazardous materials.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Have you any idea the kind of red tape I'd have to put up with
0:10:20 > 0:10:21to get government clearance?
0:10:22 > 0:10:25I am already behind schedule and I can't afford that.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28I'm up for my grant renewal.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30I don't care if you're up for a Nobel prize, there is
0:10:30 > 0:10:32missing plutonium somewhere out there because of you.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35How the hell am I supposed to know that my car is
0:10:35 > 0:10:36going to get broken into?
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Five minutes is all I left it.
0:10:40 > 0:10:41Five minutes.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47The man is a physicist, you think he would have known better.
0:10:47 > 0:10:48Week is picking up.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Oh, gee, I guess it is.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- Looks like someone beat me to it, Sergeant.- I bet they're from David.
0:11:01 > 0:11:06- Oh, isn't that lovely? - "Happy birthday, love Brian"?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- Kiss off, Newman.- That's sweet. Who is Brian?
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Some guy who likes to throw his money around to impress women.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Who needs them?- Come on, Cagney, what's he got that I don't?
0:11:14 > 0:11:15Probably wears wing tip shoes.
0:11:15 > 0:11:16Sure he's not married,
0:11:16 > 0:11:19and just keeping a sweet-looking blonde on the sly?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Hey, that's no way to be talking about Christine's big brother.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Brian is your big brother?!
0:11:26 > 0:11:29- Excuse me, Victor. - Tough for single girls, huh?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32- Have you tried computer dating services, Cagney?- Out of my face, OK?
0:11:33 > 0:11:37I love the heat of a woman's anger, don't you, Victor?
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Chris, I didn't mean to say anything before.
0:11:40 > 0:11:41That's OK.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Are you and David celebrating tonight?
0:11:44 > 0:11:48- Brian is always early.- Actually, my birthday isn't till Thursday.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Are you and David celebrating Thursday night?
0:11:50 > 0:11:51No, Mary Beth, we are not.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54David doesn't know it's my birthday.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56And that's fine.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Oh, Christine, I know you're shy about your birthday, but I...
0:11:59 > 0:12:02I'm not shy about it, I just... think it's silly to make
0:12:02 > 0:12:05a big deal out of something that's really not that big a deal.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07You are sounding like you're over the hill
0:12:07 > 0:12:09because you're going to be 39 years old.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11I am not over the hill.
0:12:12 > 0:12:13On the other hand,
0:12:13 > 0:12:16I am up high enough where I'm getting a pretty good view.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19You're thinking very old-fashioned here, Christine, you know that?
0:12:19 > 0:12:21All the magazine articles say that a woman does not
0:12:21 > 0:12:23even start her prime until she's 40 years old.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26And all those glamorous actresses say exactly the same thing,
0:12:26 > 0:12:27and take a look at them.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Laugh lines only.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Linda Evans is 43 years old, already.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- That is four years older than you... - All right, Mary Beth.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- ..and I heard Joan Collins was 68... - All right, Mary Beth.
0:12:36 > 0:12:37Take a look at Lena Horne.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39I mean, the thing I love about birthdays is that it's a
0:12:39 > 0:12:43kind of a once a year time when your whole life passes before your eyes.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49That's what they say about people who are drowning.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58And Agent Hornby would like to assist us in every way possible.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02Any plutonium theft, of course, falls under federal jurisdiction.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Normally, we work in conjunction with NEST.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06NEST?
0:13:06 > 0:13:07Nuclear Emergency Search Team.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09Ah.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12But, according to the documentation that you brought back
0:13:12 > 0:13:15certifying the small amount of plutonium missing,
0:13:15 > 0:13:17I think we can handle this among ourselves, don't you?
0:13:17 > 0:13:20- No doubt in my mind. - We'll do our best, sir.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Good, good.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24We'd like to take advantage
0:13:24 > 0:13:27of the expertise of the local police department.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30No question you have information sources we don't.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31Can't argue with that.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38As Lieutenant Samuels knows, we like to maintain a very low profile.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42I prefer to work behind-the-scenes.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45- As discreetly as possible. - We know that, Agent Hornby.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47We've all worked with federal agents before.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Sir, exactly how are you going to assist us, sir?
0:13:51 > 0:13:54I will observe and analyse your investigation, making pertinent
0:13:54 > 0:13:55suggestions when necessary.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58What you're saying is you want us to be your beard.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01That's one way of looking at it, Sergeant, um...
0:14:01 > 0:14:02Cagney.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Of course.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09I won't forget that again.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13Think we all understand each other here.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Now...
0:14:16 > 0:14:17CLEARS THROAT
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Presuming these thieves didn't know what they had...
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Excuse me, sir, but we figure they must have.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26From the papers that Dr Stanley said were in the suitcase.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29Why else would Wilkins' partner take the time to grab the phial?
0:14:29 > 0:14:30He was being chased by two cops.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Then you'd better find his accomplice and determine
0:14:32 > 0:14:34what he intended to do with it.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40Pertinent suggestions - give me a break.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Christine, he might turn out to be very helpful here.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46How many cases have we had like this?
0:14:46 > 0:14:50So it's missing plutonium, so what? It's the same procedures.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Can't let him intimidate you, Mary Beth.
0:14:53 > 0:14:54Ah-ha.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Detective Lacey, Fourteenth.
0:15:00 > 0:15:01Yes, Dr Giordano.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03He's conscious but he's still in critical condition.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05You're going to have to make it brief.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08The plutonium made his condition a lot worse?
0:15:08 > 0:15:10No, not yet anyway. It moves a lot slower than that.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13But with the kind of dosage he had, the plutonium will catch up
0:15:13 > 0:15:14with him, all right.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17- Is it fatal?- We're talking lung cancer - first anyway.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Maybe bone cancer, too.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22First, his weight will drop, then he'll start coughing blood.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Do you have any idea how he contracted this plutonium?
0:15:24 > 0:15:26- He snorted it.- Dear Lord.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Silvery white powder, he said.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31I guess he was already coked up when he tried it.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33The ultimate high, huh?
0:15:33 > 0:15:34His family's in here with him now.
0:15:37 > 0:15:38MACHINE BEEPS
0:16:00 > 0:16:03Now we know who we're looking for - one Dan Gorham.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05Dropout student and aspiring plutonium dealer.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09Oh, I don't know, Christine, about Gorham selling this stuff.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12From what that kid said about Gorham, he would've sold anything.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14They were on their way to meet friends when the car crash.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16The shape Wilkins is in, I don't think he's lying.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Figure that kid.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Parents are uptown people, they care about their son,
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I mean, anybody could see that.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26What makes a boy with everything start breaking into cars?
0:16:26 > 0:16:30- Easy money.- Easy money? What do you mean?
0:16:30 > 0:16:33The privileges he was born with... And he threw it away.
0:16:33 > 0:16:34He didn't care.
0:16:35 > 0:16:36I hate it when people don't care.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Dan Gorham's brother says he and you used to be roommates...
0:16:39 > 0:16:41I already spoke to radiation control.
0:16:41 > 0:16:42..not since last semester...
0:16:43 > 0:16:46They told me that the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions...
0:16:46 > 0:16:47..I see, thank you very much.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Yes, I do understand it's after hours, but if you could...
0:16:51 > 0:16:52Hello?
0:16:57 > 0:16:58You have anything on Gorham?
0:16:58 > 0:17:01Like the parents said, they didn't know many of his friends.
0:17:01 > 0:17:02Old girlfriend says he started
0:17:02 > 0:17:04running around with a different crowd,
0:17:04 > 0:17:07- thought maybe he was dealing dope. - Nope, just plutonium.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09- Bigger profits.- We don't know that.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12We don't know a damn thing, Mary Beth.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14How am I supposed to find out how this guy can sell this stuff if
0:17:14 > 0:17:16government agencies won't give me a straight answer?
0:17:16 > 0:17:19What about that person from the Department of Health
0:17:19 > 0:17:20who said they'd call you back?
0:17:20 > 0:17:24Oh, yeah, get this - all I have to do is fill out a 49
0:17:24 > 0:17:27with my superiors and then I can submit my questions in writing.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29And after I do that, they'll get back to us.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32I wish we were talking drugs.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Dealers, sources, at least we'd know where to start.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Well, burning the midnight oil tonight, Detectives?
0:17:37 > 0:17:38Hiya, Lynn.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42I see that reporters can't keep decent hours either.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Certainly not when we're trying to get a line
0:17:44 > 0:17:47on how some small-time thief got himself contaminated with plutonium.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Contaminated with what?
0:17:52 > 0:17:53Come on, Cagney.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55I've got very reliable sources.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59I understand the plutonium is still missing.
0:18:01 > 0:18:02Detective Lacey,
0:18:02 > 0:18:04if there's missing plutonium out there,
0:18:04 > 0:18:06the people in the city need to know about it.
0:18:06 > 0:18:07Lynn, you know better than to ask us
0:18:07 > 0:18:10to comment on an ongoing investigation.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13I'm talking about more than some poor guy like Wilkins who
0:18:13 > 0:18:15happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time
0:18:15 > 0:18:19and gets himself exposed to the stuff.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21Do you have any idea what you've got?
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Look, I'm quoting here,
0:18:25 > 0:18:29"There is a shortage of plutonium available for the construction
0:18:29 > 0:18:31"of nuclear warheads."
0:18:33 > 0:18:36That tells me there's quite a buyer's market out there.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38You got your major powers.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40You've got your terrorists.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42You've got your enterprising extortionists.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Maybe a crazy college kid with a genius IQ.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48Think you've been watching too many James Bond movies, Sutter.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53Do you know how much plutonium ends up being unaccounted for every year?
0:18:53 > 0:18:56- I'm sure you're going to tell us. - I wish I could.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01I'm a hotshot reporter with a major metropolitan newspaper
0:19:01 > 0:19:05and I can't get the facts. Nobody is talking.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07Now, this stuff ends up somewhere.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09I'd sure like to know where, wouldn't you?
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Great, Sutter.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Why don't you go on and save the world and just let us do our job?
0:19:18 > 0:19:20From the doctor told me about radiation,
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Wilkins was lucky he didn't make it.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25What are you talking about?
0:19:26 > 0:19:27He died.
0:19:28 > 0:19:29An hour ago.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Why the hell weren't we notified?
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Well, maybe you should get permission from the
0:19:34 > 0:19:36federal authorities to check it out, Sergeant.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39From what I hear, there the ones running your case so far.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47Agent Hornby, we did not give any information to the press.
0:19:47 > 0:19:48So where did the leak come from?
0:19:48 > 0:19:51You and your partner both listed plutonium contamination
0:19:51 > 0:19:52on the original 61.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55So, obviously the press has an informant on the NYPD payroll.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59I'd like to know your source to make that assumption.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01- Then where did the leak come from? - The hospital?
0:20:01 > 0:20:04The press knew about Wilkins' death before we did, for crying out loud.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07I don't have time for conjecture, I'm looking for results.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09You want results? Good idea.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11Why don't you use some of that federal clout of yours
0:20:11 > 0:20:14to get us into the Nuclear Regulatory Commission?
0:20:14 > 0:20:17And I thought you had everything under control, Sergeant. I guess not.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19I'll get us an appointment this afternoon.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Lieutenant, please impress upon your detectives
0:20:21 > 0:20:24the requirements of the agency - no problems, no publicity.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Otherwise we'll have to re-examine our cooperation with the NYPD.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30Agent Hornby,
0:20:30 > 0:20:34let me impress upon you that my detectives know how to do their job.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47You told him, Lieutenant.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Isn't there some place you got to go, Sergeant?
0:20:58 > 0:21:00If people would just inform themselves,
0:21:00 > 0:21:02they wouldn't be nearly so intimidated by nuclear technology.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05That's exactly what we're trying to do.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08You were telling us about the plutonium 238, Mrs Delicath.
0:21:09 > 0:21:14In simple terms, it's primarily used to power satellites.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17In simple terms, what would be the market for this kind of plutonium?
0:21:17 > 0:21:18Beats me.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21It's not weapons grade. All it's good for is research.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23- Not nuclear research? - Not in this country.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Other countries, then?
0:21:25 > 0:21:26Not officially.
0:21:26 > 0:21:27How about unofficially?
0:21:27 > 0:21:30The way my people work is,
0:21:30 > 0:21:33we like to focus on the immediate facts of this case.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Let's not get into some long-term speculation.
0:21:36 > 0:21:40I would like to hear what Mrs Delicath has to say, sir.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Look, it's no secret, there are a number of foreign nations
0:21:43 > 0:21:45eager to expand their knowledge of nuclear technology.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48Build their own bomb, you mean?
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Mm, stands to reason they'd be in the market for any plutonium
0:21:50 > 0:21:51they could buy.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53By the time they find out it isn't weapons-grade,
0:21:53 > 0:21:55it's too late for a refund.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57We're going off in a direction that's very unlikely.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01But the plutonium 238 itself is harmless?
0:22:01 > 0:22:03I wouldn't say that.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Accidents could happen if the wrong people got hold of it.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07The wrong people?
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Terrorists.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Well, even this kind of plutonium could be added to a standard
0:22:12 > 0:22:14TNT bomb to engineer some sort of radioactive fallout.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17All sorts of possibilities for demented minds.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21We really don't have time for this kind of speculation.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24You come in here taking my time, Agent Hornby.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27I'm not going to sugar-coat the facts to make them go down easier.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Pounding the pavement with Hornby breathing down our neck
0:22:34 > 0:22:36and not a damn thing to show for it.
0:22:36 > 0:22:37Let's go over it again.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40And then he blames us, saying the publicity on Wilkins' death
0:22:40 > 0:22:42is driving Gorham into the woodwork.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Hell, it should be driving him to a hospital to find out
0:22:44 > 0:22:46whether or not he was contaminated.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49Well, Wilkins said he was the only one that snorted the stuff.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Quote, "Gorham started to touch the phial
0:22:51 > 0:22:55"but he changed his mind and went and washed his hands," unquote.
0:22:55 > 0:22:56See, that's what I'm talking about.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58He knew enough to be scared.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01What he doesn't know is how much of that stuff he's been exposed to.
0:23:02 > 0:23:07So, if he thinks that Wilkins died because of the contamination,
0:23:07 > 0:23:10then he should be trying to get help.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Tomorrow, we start checking emergency rooms.
0:23:17 > 0:23:18Yeah, tomorrow.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22FAIRGROUND MUSIC PLAYS
0:23:24 > 0:23:26I brought you here for the best fish and chips in Coney Island,
0:23:26 > 0:23:28not corn dogs.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32- It's my party. - Ha-ha-ha.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36Do you know how many times you asked me to bring you here
0:23:36 > 0:23:37on your birthday when you were a kid?
0:23:38 > 0:23:40A lot.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43After, we'll go to Maurie's and shoot a few games of pool,
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- just like the old days. - Maurie's?- Mm-hmm.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47I didn't know that was open anymore.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Are you kidding? Maurie's, where I taught you to shoot pool?
0:23:49 > 0:23:53Come on, it hasn't been that many years.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55It seems like it sometimes.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59Rough week at work?
0:24:00 > 0:24:02It's not an easy case.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03Can't Samuels give you some backup?
0:24:03 > 0:24:05The backup I have I'd like to get rid of.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14It's not so simple anymore.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16- Want to take a walk? - Yeah, yeah, sure.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26It's not like the good old days, Charlie.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28When you used to bring me down here.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30No, honey, it wasn't simple then, either.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32You were just a kid, that's all, you didn't know any better.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36Now that you're grown up, it's a whole different world.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37Yeah.
0:24:37 > 0:24:38It sure feels that way.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Hey, happy birthday, baby.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45- Thanks, Charlie.- Ha-ha.
0:24:48 > 0:24:49MUSIC PLAYS
0:24:52 > 0:24:53- Are you ready?- Yeah.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Here we are, ha-ha-ha.
0:24:58 > 0:25:02I don't believe it, when did they put this thing in here?
0:25:02 > 0:25:03Oh, you must be disappointed, Chris.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08I don't know, Charlie.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11You always said we should keep up with the times.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Tell you what, I'll challenge you to a game of Pacman.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Hey, that's my birthday girl. You're on.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19What the hell is Pacman?
0:25:19 > 0:25:20I'll show you.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28I'm going to go and check on the baby.
0:25:28 > 0:25:29Honey, she just got to sleep.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32I want to be sure she didn't kick her blankets off. I'll be very...
0:25:32 > 0:25:34- Sweetheart.- ..quiet.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Hey, Mike, I said 'bed' ten minutes ago.
0:25:38 > 0:25:39Harvey, TV time's over.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45- It was a lousy programme anyway. - Don't be a hard case, Harvey.
0:25:45 > 0:25:46Goodnight, sweetheart.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55So peaceful.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57It's amazing how she can shut the whole world out.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59- Goodnight, Mom. - Goodnight, sweetheart.
0:26:00 > 0:26:01Hey!
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Want to say goodnight to your mother?
0:26:05 > 0:26:08What, just because you're 16 you're too big to kiss me goodnight?
0:26:08 > 0:26:09- Goodnight, Mom.- Come here.
0:26:11 > 0:26:12Goodnight.
0:26:19 > 0:26:20I thought that once we found a house
0:26:20 > 0:26:22he'd start feeling happier about moving.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Before it was only talk - now he knows it's for real.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26It's going to be hard for him, Harvey.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31Having to transfer schools and making new friends.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34Mary Beth, I went to four different schools. Each time I made it work.
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Harvey will too.
0:26:37 > 0:26:38- Honey...- Yeah?
0:26:38 > 0:26:42- You're always reading those news magazines.- Hmm?
0:26:43 > 0:26:47I don't know anybody that pays more attention to that stuff than you do.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53Harvey, before I started working on this case I'm working on,
0:26:53 > 0:26:55do you remember ever reading anything about there being
0:26:55 > 0:26:57plutonium missing?
0:26:58 > 0:27:00What do you mean by missing?
0:27:00 > 0:27:02What do you mean, what do I mean by missing?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04Gone. Lost.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07Not there for bed-check when they lock up at night.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Yeah, I think I might have heard of something like that before.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12You MIGHT have?
0:27:14 > 0:27:17Does that make you a little nervous, Harvey?
0:27:17 > 0:27:20Mary Beth, it doesn't do any good to think about that kind of stuff.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24I wish I didn't have to think about some of the things
0:27:24 > 0:27:27I heard about today, but that doesn't make it go away.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31Mary Beth...
0:27:32 > 0:27:35..the government and the scientists - they are the ones
0:27:35 > 0:27:36running the show.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40People like you and me - we don't have a thing to say about it.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42Harvey, you don't really believe that?
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Do you know how lucky we are to keep the genie in the bottle this long?
0:27:45 > 0:27:47They can't do it forever though.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Well, what the heck does that mean?
0:27:49 > 0:27:51You and I are making a new home for our family.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53I'm planning on a future.
0:27:54 > 0:27:59Mary Beth, we are all sitting ducks. If somebody presses the wrong button.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02It is a fact of life, just like babies being born,
0:28:02 > 0:28:03you just got to learn to live with it.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05The way it was, soldiers fought the wars,
0:28:05 > 0:28:07today, everybody is a target.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Men, women, kids - it doesn't matter.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12The big balloon goes up - it's all over.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Well, that's terrific, Harvey.
0:28:15 > 0:28:16With a big balloon out there,
0:28:16 > 0:28:18why do we bother getting up tomorrow morning?!
0:28:18 > 0:28:20You're going to wake up the baby.
0:28:20 > 0:28:21We may as well give up right now.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Will you calm down about this?
0:28:23 > 0:28:25The way you tell it, we might as well put our hands over our head,
0:28:25 > 0:28:27bend over and kiss our tales goodbye!
0:28:27 > 0:28:30Go in there and tell that to your brand-new baby daughter.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47I am telling you, this is our best shot.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50We've combed every emergency room from the Bowery
0:28:50 > 0:28:52to Washington Heights and there's nobody that comes close
0:28:52 > 0:28:53to Gorham's description.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57- We still have the West Side to cover, sir.- Not on my time.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59Ladies, it isn't working.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01So what, we go back and show Gorham's picture
0:29:01 > 0:29:03to every panhandler on 42nd Street?
0:29:03 > 0:29:06Your reliable informants, Sergeant, let's see how reliable they are.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09Our informants do not know the street value of plutonium.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11Hell, they don't even know what plutonium is.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14I'm not interested in a wild goose chase here.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16You're not interested in anything!
0:29:16 > 0:29:18Sergeant, if your local resources keep coming up dry,
0:29:18 > 0:29:22then maybe it's time to take a new approach with a new team.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27Do you love it? We do all the legwork
0:29:27 > 0:29:29and he takes the credit with the brass in Washington.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32- No-one's taking credit for anything until we find Gorham.- Yes, sir.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36With the publicity on Wilkins' death, I was sure he would...
0:29:36 > 0:29:38Publicity on Wilkin's...?
0:29:38 > 0:29:40You know, Cagney, that's where we've gone wrong.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43It should be targeted at Gorham.
0:29:43 > 0:29:46If he didn't care about his buddy then Gorham might come crawling
0:29:46 > 0:29:49out of the woodwork if he thought he was the one that was contaminated?
0:29:49 > 0:29:51Well, I think it is our duty to alert Gorham
0:29:51 > 0:29:54that he should definitely seek medical attention!
0:29:54 > 0:29:58The six o'clock news and every newspaper - as soon as possible.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00- What did I start here? - What?! Lieutenant!
0:30:00 > 0:30:02What, using the press to smoke out a perp?!
0:30:02 > 0:30:04You said - we do, we've done it before.
0:30:04 > 0:30:05Yeah.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08Not when the federal authorities have instructed us
0:30:08 > 0:30:09to keep a low profile.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12Mary Beth, Hornby has been using the 14th like errand boys.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15Coming in here, running us around, telling us what to do...
0:30:15 > 0:30:18Cagney, come on, you're a professional.
0:30:18 > 0:30:19When are you finally going to learn that
0:30:19 > 0:30:21you've got to work with the powers that be?
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Well, Lieutenant, you said.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27- He could steal this from us any time he wanted.- Yeah.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29Yeah, he can do that.
0:30:31 > 0:30:35Sir, I think that Lynn Sutter may be interested in helping us here.
0:30:35 > 0:30:36- You think so, huh?- Yes, sir.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44Hornby's worried about a press leak.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47I'll give him a press leak.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49555 2424, sir.
0:31:00 > 0:31:01What time do you have?
0:31:03 > 0:31:05Six minutes later than the last time you asked me.
0:31:08 > 0:31:10That late edition came out three hours ago.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12And what do you want to do? You want to notify all the
0:31:12 > 0:31:14ERs and clinics in all the five boroughs again?
0:31:16 > 0:31:19Why don't you go on home? I'll call you if something comes in.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21No, I told Harvey it'd be a late night when he called.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25- He sounded so anxious, that's all. - So go home!
0:31:26 > 0:31:29This case is as important to me as it is to you, Sergeant.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31It's silly for the two of us to be sitting around here
0:31:31 > 0:31:32waiting like this.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34So you go home!
0:31:36 > 0:31:37You are so stubborn.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39Look who's talking.
0:31:42 > 0:31:43Tell you what...
0:31:44 > 0:31:46..I'll flip a coin.
0:31:46 > 0:31:50- Heads - I stay, tails - you stay, all right?- All right.
0:31:52 > 0:31:53You win!
0:31:56 > 0:31:58- Does that mean I stay? - No, it means you go.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01- Christine... - Mary Beth, Harvey's waiting.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04This is your sergeant speaking!
0:32:07 > 0:32:09I think the fix was in.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Nobody said life was fair, Mary Beth.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Hi.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21Congratulations, Mrs Lacey.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24Let me be the first to welcome you to your new residence
0:32:24 > 0:32:25in Fresh Meadows.
0:32:28 > 0:32:29We got the house?
0:32:29 > 0:32:31I made them an offer they couldn't refuse.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36- Oh, Harvey, I can't believe it. - Oh, baby.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39I can't believe it.
0:32:40 > 0:32:42- Our own house?!- Our own house.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44Oh, you know what Mrs Jacoby calls it?
0:32:44 > 0:32:47She calls it, "an investment in our future."
0:32:48 > 0:32:49Our future, Mary Beth.
0:32:51 > 0:32:52Here's to our future.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55SHE WEEPS
0:32:56 > 0:32:58You know the first thing I'm going to build, Mary Beth?
0:32:58 > 0:33:01I'm going to build a backyard barbecue and then,
0:33:01 > 0:33:04then I'm going to build a tree house for Michael.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07And then I'm going to build a sandbox for Alice.
0:33:07 > 0:33:09How's Harvey Jr dealing with the news?
0:33:09 > 0:33:11Not terrific.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15In fact, I think he would probably be glad to see his mother right now.
0:33:43 > 0:33:44Break your eardrums wearing that thing.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47I'll survive.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50You'll survive starting a new school, too.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53Harvey, we're not going to be that far away.
0:33:53 > 0:33:56You can invite your old friends over any time you like.
0:33:56 > 0:33:57It's not the same!
0:33:59 > 0:34:01Mom, I don't care about a new house.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05I don't care if I have to share my room with Michael.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09- Why do we have to move? - Because we want something better.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Yeah.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13And what if you and Dad hate the neighbours?
0:34:13 > 0:34:15What if the house starts falling apart?
0:34:15 > 0:34:17- What if...? I just...- Sweetie,
0:34:17 > 0:34:21sometimes when you want something very badly, you have to take risks.
0:34:21 > 0:34:22And you don't know if everything
0:34:22 > 0:34:24is going to turn out to be the way you want.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27And that's the scary thing - you don't know.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29But you can't let that stop you.
0:34:29 > 0:34:33I think that if you want something badly enough you have to try things.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36And hope, and trust that they turn out to be all right.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38PHONE RINGS
0:34:38 > 0:34:39It's not going to be all right, I know it.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43Hey, I know that everything does not have a happy ending.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45But I think we have to believe in it anyways.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48How else could we go on,
0:34:48 > 0:34:50if we don't believe that everything is going to be OK?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54KNOCK ON THE DOOR
0:34:54 > 0:34:56I'm sorry to interrupt - Chris said it's urgent.
0:34:56 > 0:34:57Thanks.
0:35:00 > 0:35:01It's our family, Harvey.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05We have too much at stake for any one of us to let the other one down.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09It's going to be a big change.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11But to make it work, we all have to commit to it, Harve.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14You're in this too.
0:35:14 > 0:35:15It's up to you too.
0:35:19 > 0:35:20Be strong, baby.
0:35:31 > 0:35:32Yeah, did you get anything?
0:35:32 > 0:35:34People's Free Clinic on West 23rd Street, Mary Beth.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38A 19-year-old fitting Dan Gorham's description is currently
0:35:38 > 0:35:40undergoing lab tests for plutonium poisoning.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43I'm having uniforms bring him in.
0:35:43 > 0:35:44You'd better call Hornby.
0:35:46 > 0:35:47Chris... I heard.
0:35:54 > 0:35:55- I love you.- Love you.
0:35:59 > 0:36:00SIRENS IN DISTANCE
0:36:03 > 0:36:06I'm not saying anything until I get the results of those lab tests.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13Hey, I touched that damn phial too, you know.
0:36:13 > 0:36:14But you didn't snort the plutonium.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17According to the doctor, you're safe enough.
0:36:18 > 0:36:19Where is he?
0:36:19 > 0:36:22You're welcome to another body search, lady.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25You think you're real smart, don't you, Gorham?
0:36:25 > 0:36:27A lot smarter than the other punks we get in here, right?
0:36:27 > 0:36:30Cos you got a couple of semesters of college under your belt?
0:36:30 > 0:36:33Cos your parents have some fancy address in Scarsdale?
0:36:33 > 0:36:35I bet they're real proud of their son, the thief.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38Yeah, thief is one thing. But he runs out on his pal.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40Danny boy here didn't care.
0:36:40 > 0:36:41He's got the plutonium.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44You can get a lot more money for that
0:36:44 > 0:36:46than you can fencing car stereos right, kid?
0:36:46 > 0:36:48And that way he didn't have to split the profits
0:36:48 > 0:36:49with poor dumb Jimmy.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52Yeah, that was real convenient that car crash wiping out your buddy.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57- No wonder you left him there to die.- Hey, I couldn't help him.
0:36:57 > 0:36:58Did you try?
0:37:01 > 0:37:04You ever think about what plutonium can be used for?
0:37:04 > 0:37:05How many people can be hurt?
0:37:05 > 0:37:09One person died already, he can't wait to be responsible for more.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12I thought you were a lot smarter than this, Gorham.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14Stealing plutonium is a federal offence unless,
0:37:14 > 0:37:17of course, you like the idea of sitting on your butt
0:37:17 > 0:37:19for the next 20 years in a federal penitentiary.
0:37:25 > 0:37:27What's in it for me?
0:37:29 > 0:37:30Less time, maybe.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35That's not enough.
0:37:35 > 0:37:36You help us...
0:37:37 > 0:37:39..we'll let you know what we can do for you.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44I already sold it.
0:37:46 > 0:37:47Who did you sell it to?
0:37:47 > 0:37:50A guy a buddy of mine set me up with.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52He said he could move it to some overseas contacts.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59- Where did you set up the deal? - The guy's office.
0:38:00 > 0:38:01- Queens.- Where in Queens?
0:38:07 > 0:38:11- There ain't been nobody in this place in over six months.- Looks it.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13Told you this place was a dump.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15Look, this is where I met the guy, I swear it.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23Damn thing.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26Brand-new set and the law stiffs me.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28Can't trust nobody nowadays.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35CARS BEEP
0:38:35 > 0:38:37We think that Gorham is telling the truth, sir.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39He is too smart to lead us down the garden path when
0:38:39 > 0:38:40his tail's on the line.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42So the landlord is lying?
0:38:42 > 0:38:44Maybe, maybe not.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46The man Gorham met could have been a former tenant.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48Could have been a friend of a tenant with a key.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50Forensics has already dusted for prints, Lieutenant.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52They must've come up with something.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54I've already ordered the results on to Washington.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56We've done all we can here, Lieutenant.
0:38:56 > 0:38:57WE?
0:38:57 > 0:39:00My people are prepared to assume full authority on this.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02You can't do that!
0:39:02 > 0:39:03- Cagney...- What?
0:39:03 > 0:39:04Cagney, please.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08Hornby, I think our detectives have got a handle on this now.
0:39:08 > 0:39:09Damn right, we do.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14What the hell are you talking about? This case gets more out of control
0:39:14 > 0:39:15by the minute.
0:39:15 > 0:39:19Thanks to the NYPD, last night the Gorham case was a headline story
0:39:19 > 0:39:22on every newscast in the city.
0:39:22 > 0:39:25Hornby, in my judgment that was the right decision.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Worked, didn't it?
0:39:27 > 0:39:31A delicate case like this requires sensitivity and discretion.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33There is certain information the public can't deal with.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36What information is that, Agent Hornby?
0:39:38 > 0:39:41I think there is something else bothering Agent Hornby.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Like the fact that the plutonium is still missing.
0:39:45 > 0:39:49That's going to be embarrassing, isn't it?
0:39:49 > 0:39:52Thank you, Lieutenant, for your cooperation in this case.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55I assure you it will remain high on our priority list.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57So, how long before somebody sells that plutonium
0:39:57 > 0:39:59to the highest bidder?
0:39:59 > 0:40:02Detective Lacey, this really isn't your problem.
0:40:02 > 0:40:03It isn't my problem?
0:40:04 > 0:40:07Dan Gorham fenced that poison 28 blocks from my home.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10What the hell do you mean it's not my problem?
0:40:10 > 0:40:12This is exactly the kind of attitude that breeds overreaction.
0:40:12 > 0:40:14Getting emotional like this...
0:40:14 > 0:40:15Well, somebody better get emotional
0:40:15 > 0:40:17cos we're talking people's lives here!
0:40:17 > 0:40:19I assure you, Detective.
0:40:19 > 0:40:23This will be handled by experts in these kinds of cases.
0:40:23 > 0:40:25They'll keep it under control.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28Now, if you'll just step aside and let us get on with our work.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30I don't believe you, Hornby. Not anymore.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32You're not going a damn thing about it, but I am.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34I'm going to do something about it!
0:40:34 > 0:40:36- Lacey...- I apologise, Lieutenant, I'm sorry.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39But there's craziness out there and nobody is doing
0:40:39 > 0:40:42anything about it because somebody else is supposed to be in charge!
0:40:42 > 0:40:44We'll monitor this case as best we can,
0:40:44 > 0:40:46I promise you that we're not going to forget it.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50I'm not only talking about this case, sir.
0:40:50 > 0:40:51PHONE RINGS
0:40:54 > 0:40:55I don't know what I'm going to do...
0:40:55 > 0:40:58but I'm going to find out.
0:40:59 > 0:41:00I'm going to find out what to do.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03Er, excuse me for interrupting, Lieutenant.
0:41:03 > 0:41:06There's a parcel over here for Sergeant Cagney.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08Oh, I'll get it later, Coleman.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11Erm, it requires your signature, Cagney.
0:41:14 > 0:41:16Excuse me.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24- Sergeant Christine Cagney?- Oh, yes.
0:41:24 > 0:41:28Detectives Newman, Isbecki, Petrie, Corassa, Sergeant Coleman
0:41:28 > 0:41:30asked that I give you the following message...
0:41:30 > 0:41:32You'd better sit down for this one, Sarge.
0:41:32 > 0:41:35Happy birthday, baby!
0:41:35 > 0:41:38I'm your...Mr wonderful.
0:41:41 > 0:41:45# A cowboy in love On the trail of life
0:41:45 > 0:41:49# In my parked car, Under the stars... #
0:41:49 > 0:41:53- This was your idea, right? - Isbecki even wrote the lyrics.
0:41:53 > 0:41:57# Happy birthday to you. #
0:42:06 > 0:42:09Ah, happy birthday.
0:42:09 > 0:42:10ALL: Happy birthday.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19- It's called an agave plant.- Ah.
0:42:19 > 0:42:21AKA, a sanctuary plant.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23I first saw them when Harvey took me and the boys
0:42:23 > 0:42:25to the botanical gardens a couple of weeks ago.
0:42:25 > 0:42:28And the special thing about this plant
0:42:28 > 0:42:30is that it blooms only once in 20 years.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32Well, something to look forward to.
0:42:32 > 0:42:34Thank you.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36I'll get you something grand, you know,
0:42:36 > 0:42:38for next year, for the big 4-0.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41But, anyways, for now,
0:42:41 > 0:42:45here's to your 39th birthday - long may she wave.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48She already wove, Mary Beth.
0:42:48 > 0:42:50Huh?
0:42:53 > 0:42:55This is my 40th.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57Oh, no, Christine.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59I distinctively remember last year when I took you to
0:42:59 > 0:43:00that Chinese restaurant.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03Some place between the egg rolls and the pork you told me
0:43:03 > 0:43:04you were 38.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06- I lied.- You lied?
0:43:06 > 0:43:07Well, it was a white lie.
0:43:08 > 0:43:13There wasn't really much point, I was just sort of...kidding around.
0:43:13 > 0:43:15For one year?
0:43:15 > 0:43:16It's not like you said you were 29.
0:43:17 > 0:43:19Or 35 even.
0:43:19 > 0:43:21For one year, you lied?
0:43:21 > 0:43:22What? I didn't lie.
0:43:24 > 0:43:26It wasn't a lie.
0:43:26 > 0:43:27It was an omission.
0:43:29 > 0:43:31Besides, at my age, every year counts.
0:43:33 > 0:43:34Yeah, I guess so.
0:43:35 > 0:43:37So what are you coming clean now for?
0:43:38 > 0:43:42I don't know. It's a sign of maturity, I guess.
0:43:42 > 0:43:44- Ha-ha-ha.- Ha-ha-ha.
0:43:44 > 0:43:4540, huh?
0:43:47 > 0:43:50Those do make you look younger.
0:43:50 > 0:43:51Yeah?
0:43:54 > 0:43:56Well, like you said, Mary Beth, I'm in my prime.
0:43:58 > 0:44:00Probably should start acting like it, huh?
0:44:02 > 0:44:03Thank you.
0:44:07 > 0:44:09I don't know, Mary Beth.
0:44:11 > 0:44:13Saturdays are going by faster than they used to.
0:44:15 > 0:44:16Huh?
0:44:18 > 0:44:22Well, when I was a kid I hated going to school on my birthday.
0:44:24 > 0:44:25So I'd count ahead to see which years
0:44:25 > 0:44:27my birthday would land on a Saturday.
0:44:30 > 0:44:347th, 14th, 21st...
0:44:34 > 0:44:39And, um...next one coming up will be my 42nd.
0:44:39 > 0:44:41Not so far away.
0:44:43 > 0:44:45I like Saturdays.
0:44:45 > 0:44:47Must make more of them.
0:44:47 > 0:44:49Me too.
0:44:54 > 0:44:57- Here's to your new house, Mary Beth.- Yeah.
0:44:57 > 0:44:59And to...more Saturdays,
0:44:59 > 0:45:00Christine.
