MUSIC DROWNS OUT SPEECH

0:01:210:01:23

No, Dr Stanley, not since you called this morning.

0:01:450:01:48

Yes, Dr Stanley.

0:01:490:01:51

Mm-hmm.

0:01:510:01:52

We still have the number at the University and the lab.

0:01:520:01:56

Physics Department, right.

0:01:560:01:57

Right, right.

0:01:590:02:01

Goodbye, Dr Stanley.

0:02:030:02:04

Two days since his car was broken into

0:02:080:02:10

and he can't understand why the thief isn't public enemy number one.

0:02:100:02:13

I hate these pandy andy cases.

0:02:130:02:15

Christine, what do you think of this here?

0:02:150:02:17

Fixer upper in Floral Park.

0:02:170:02:19

Super clean, four bedrooms.

0:02:190:02:21

Quote, "needs a woman's loving touch to turn this house into a home,"

0:02:210:02:24

unquote.

0:02:240:02:25

-What do you think?

-"Fixer upper"?

0:02:250:02:27

I think that's real estate for "falling apart".

0:02:270:02:30

160,000?

0:02:300:02:32

Hey, you get what you pay for, Mary Beth.

0:02:320:02:35

That's what I was hoping.

0:02:350:02:37

PHONE RINGS

0:02:370:02:38

Detective Lacey, Fourteenth Squad.

0:02:380:02:40

Oh, hello, Mrs Jacoby. Yes, this is perfect timing.

0:02:420:02:45

Yeah. I was just looking through the latest listings.

0:02:450:02:47

Fresh Meadows?

0:02:490:02:50

Oh, we do know the neighbourhood, yes. Yes, I...

0:02:500:02:53

Ah, Victor, this is a second honeymoon.

0:02:530:02:55

Cagney, what do you think?

0:02:550:02:58

-Second honeymoon?

-Yeah.

0:02:580:02:59

-Paradise Island in the Bahamas is very romantic.

-Mmm.

0:02:590:03:03

Scuba-diving ain't bad either.

0:03:030:03:04

I bet you're a water sign.

0:03:040:03:06

Excuse me?

0:03:060:03:07

Your sign. Scorpio, Pisces, Cancer, right?

0:03:070:03:10

Victor, you sound like a throwback to those singles bars in the '70s.

0:03:100:03:14

I bet she's a Scorpio.

0:03:140:03:15

-They always get real cranky when they don't...

-I'm an Aries, OK?

0:03:150:03:18

Aries? You're kidding.

0:03:180:03:20

You know, my younger sister is an Aries and wonders

0:03:200:03:23

if she's a reincarnation of Anne Boleyn.

0:03:230:03:25

So when is your birthday, Cagney?

0:03:250:03:27

When's yours, Newman?

0:03:270:03:29

February 3rd, 1958.

0:03:290:03:31

-1958...?

-Aquarius. Aquarius, they are always...

0:03:310:03:33

Oh, you are depressing, Newman.

0:03:330:03:35

So, you have a birthday coming up pretty soon, huh?

0:03:350:03:39

Yeah, Cagney, when is your birthday?

0:03:390:03:41

-Exactly.

-Maybe I'll send you some flowers, Cagney.

0:03:410:03:45

Be still, my heart.

0:03:450:03:46

This won't make the front page but considering how slow the week

0:03:490:03:52

-has been, I guess it's better than nothing, right?

-Who's offering?

0:03:520:03:55

What you got, Sergeant?

0:03:550:03:56

A 61-head paper, courtesy of the 40th Precinct.

0:03:560:03:58

They're holding a suspect who was found with the goods.

0:03:580:04:01

What do you know? Dr Stanley got lucky.

0:04:010:04:02

Yeah, the suspect didn't. He's in the emergency room at Sisters of Hope.

0:04:020:04:05

It's a nice name for a hospital, it's kind of uplifting, you know?

0:04:050:04:08

Now, we give pursuit and this cowboy tries to outrun us.

0:04:110:04:14

Now, we're really travelling when

0:04:140:04:15

Mario Andretti here fails to make a corner.

0:04:150:04:17

He wraps himself around a telephone pole, knocks himself out.

0:04:170:04:20

The guy sitting next to him - a white male -

0:04:200:04:22

jumps out of the passenger side and takes off like a bird.

0:04:220:04:25

A white male who takes off

0:04:250:04:26

-like a bird, did you get...?

-19-20, medium build, 5ft 8",

0:04:260:04:28

light hair cut in a shag, real snappy dresser.

0:04:280:04:32

Two preppy - not my style.

0:04:320:04:33

"Very yuppie." The store owner told us.

0:04:330:04:35

-Hey, isn't everybody?

-Thank you, Officer.

0:04:350:04:37

Ah, Marshall G. Owens. Sorry, Sarge, your suspect is unconscious

0:04:370:04:41

and currently undergoing medical testing.

0:04:410:04:43

Now, Dr Giordano told us he'd let us know as soon as soon as he is

0:04:430:04:46

available for interrogation.

0:04:460:04:47

Well, until he lets US know, do we have an idea on the suspect's...

0:04:470:04:50

Jimmy Wilkins, aged 18, occupation - student.

0:04:500:04:52

We found a university ID card.

0:04:520:04:54

-Stolen goods in the car?

-Six car stereos sent to the clerk,

0:04:540:04:56

one small metal suitcase sent to the police lab with the DD45A

0:04:560:04:59

for analysis.

0:04:590:05:01

Well, thank you very much, Officer Owens.

0:05:020:05:03

We aim to please, ma'am.

0:05:030:05:05

Mm-hmm, thank you.

0:05:050:05:06

-Got something, huh?

-Yeah, where the hell do they get these rookies?

0:05:100:05:13

No, I'm talking about the kid running out on his friend.

0:05:130:05:16

When his buddy is hurt and all.

0:05:160:05:17

Makes you wonder why he took out of there so fast.

0:05:170:05:20

His buddy's probably got a yellow sheet six feet long.

0:05:200:05:23

Just doesn't want to get nailed again, I guess.

0:05:230:05:25

So, tonight Mrs Jacoby's taking us to see this four-bedroom,

0:05:270:05:29

two-and-a-half bath, at Fresh Meadows.

0:05:290:05:32

Which is really Flushing,

0:05:320:05:34

but she says Fresh Meadows is more desirable.

0:05:340:05:36

Did you ever hear that?

0:05:360:05:37

Uh-uh.

0:05:370:05:39

Oh.

0:05:390:05:40

Well, she says the owners are very motivated.

0:05:400:05:43

Can't sell the sucker, huh?

0:05:430:05:45

She didn't say that exactly.

0:05:450:05:47

They just lowered the price?

0:05:470:05:48

10,000, which is good for us, we figured.

0:05:480:05:51

You know, for such a terrific house,

0:05:520:05:53

how come they're having a hard time unloading it?

0:05:530:05:56

You got to think about that.

0:05:560:05:57

Mary Beth...

0:06:030:06:04

..think I'm getting crow's feet?

0:06:060:06:08

You?

0:06:080:06:09

Of course not.

0:06:110:06:12

No, I mean right here.

0:06:140:06:16

-Under my eye, see?

-Let me see.

0:06:160:06:19

Those are laugh lines.

0:06:210:06:22

I hate it when you're kind.

0:06:250:06:27

You're cheerful tonight.

0:06:280:06:29

I don't know why I bought this, I hate mauve.

0:06:290:06:32

I think you look very snazzy... except for the wrinkles.

0:06:320:06:34

What do you think?

0:06:580:07:00

Younger?

0:07:000:07:02

Thought you only wore those when you go to bed at night.

0:07:020:07:04

The more I wear them, the better my bite.

0:07:060:07:08

Ah, Christine, I always thought your bite was fine.

0:07:090:07:13

It's your bark that needs a little work.

0:07:130:07:15

Almost funny, Mary Beth.

0:07:200:07:22

Almost.

0:07:230:07:24

This is one of the loveliest options of the house.

0:07:300:07:33

The all-purpose finish basement.

0:07:350:07:37

Solid, linoleum floor. There's even a little guest bathroom.

0:07:450:07:50

Oh, look. It's a marble sink, look.

0:07:500:07:53

And, there is plenty of room for Harvey to build a patio

0:07:530:07:57

in the backyard without hurting the maple tree, so that we can

0:07:570:08:00

barbecue in the summer.

0:08:000:08:02

Like at Brian's house.

0:08:020:08:04

Well, not exactly like Brian's house because there's no pool.

0:08:040:08:06

But there is a bathtub and a shower,

0:08:060:08:09

and I'm not talking about a shower over the bath,

0:08:090:08:11

I'm talking about a separate stall shower with these tiles,

0:08:110:08:14

Christine, that are...

0:08:140:08:16

And wait till you see...

0:08:160:08:18

the breakfast nook.

0:08:180:08:20

Ha-ha.

0:08:200:08:21

Well, I don't know, Mary Beth.

0:08:210:08:22

This sounds like Fresh Meadows' answer to the Palace of Versailles.

0:08:220:08:25

Yeah.

0:08:250:08:26

So, are you and Harvey going to make an offer, or not?

0:08:260:08:29

We already did. Ah!

0:08:290:08:30

-Oh, that's great!

-Wait, they still might not accept.

0:08:300:08:35

I mean, they could say no, or they could make a counteroffer,

0:08:350:08:38

which they may do because we came in under what they were asking.

0:08:380:08:41

On the other hand, like Mrs Jacoby says, these owners

0:08:410:08:45

-are very motivated.

-Motivated, yeah.

0:08:450:08:48

We've got kind of an unusual situation here.

0:08:480:08:51

We understand that Mr Wilkins is still

0:08:510:08:53

in a very serious condition, Doctor.

0:08:530:08:55

Yes, well, more serious than we thought.

0:08:550:08:57

He has regained consciousness?

0:08:570:08:58

Briefly, but he went out again about an hour ago.

0:08:580:09:01

I went over the lab tests with pathology to make sure

0:09:020:09:04

we didn't make any mistake.

0:09:040:09:06

They say there's no chance of an error.

0:09:060:09:08

The nurse said that he has a cerebral haemorrhage.

0:09:080:09:10

Inoperable, yes.

0:09:100:09:11

That's small-time compared to this baby.

0:09:110:09:15

Wilkins has plutonium in his bloodstream.

0:09:150:09:17

Sir?

0:09:190:09:20

The man's radioactive.

0:09:200:09:22

I'd sure like to know how he got that way.

0:09:230:09:25

We can't talk in there, I can't disturb my colleagues.

0:09:320:09:35

Oh, Dr Stanley, I can understand why they'd be disturbed.

0:09:360:09:39

Hearing about the burglary, my partner means.

0:09:390:09:41

Did you find my suitcase?

0:09:440:09:46

Yes, we did. The thieves had broken into it and those papers -

0:09:460:09:50

your Bible papers that you were so concerned about it - they're gone.

0:09:500:09:53

But guess what the pathologist did find

0:09:530:09:55

when he examined that suitcase of yours in the lab?

0:09:550:09:57

It's contaminated with plutonium.

0:09:590:10:01

So is the kid who stole it.

0:10:010:10:03

Dr Stanley, you neglected to tell us you were transporting plutonium.

0:10:030:10:07

I put it in a regulation type B lead phial.

0:10:070:10:10

-I took every precaution.

-There are federal statutes, Doctor,

0:10:120:10:14

controlling the transportation of hazardous materials.

0:10:140:10:17

Have you any idea the kind of red tape I'd have to put up with

0:10:170:10:20

to get government clearance?

0:10:200:10:21

I am already behind schedule and I can't afford that.

0:10:220:10:25

I'm up for my grant renewal.

0:10:250:10:28

I don't care if you're up for a Nobel prize, there is

0:10:280:10:30

missing plutonium somewhere out there because of you.

0:10:300:10:32

How the hell am I supposed to know that my car is

0:10:320:10:35

going to get broken into?

0:10:350:10:36

Five minutes is all I left it.

0:10:370:10:39

Five minutes.

0:10:400:10:41

The man is a physicist, you think he would have known better.

0:10:440:10:47

Week is picking up.

0:10:470:10:48

Oh, gee, I guess it is.

0:10:520:10:54

-Looks like someone beat me to it, Sergeant.

-I bet they're from David.

0:10:550:10:58

-Oh, isn't that lovely?

-"Happy birthday, love Brian"?

0:11:010:11:06

-Kiss off, Newman.

-That's sweet. Who is Brian?

0:11:060:11:08

Some guy who likes to throw his money around to impress women.

0:11:080:11:11

-Who needs them?

-Come on, Cagney, what's he got that I don't?

0:11:110:11:14

Probably wears wing tip shoes.

0:11:140:11:15

Sure he's not married,

0:11:150:11:16

and just keeping a sweet-looking blonde on the sly?

0:11:160:11:19

Hey, that's no way to be talking about Christine's big brother.

0:11:190:11:22

Brian is your big brother?!

0:11:220:11:24

-Excuse me, Victor.

-Tough for single girls, huh?

0:11:260:11:29

-Have you tried computer dating services, Cagney?

-Out of my face, OK?

0:11:290:11:32

I love the heat of a woman's anger, don't you, Victor?

0:11:330:11:37

Chris, I didn't mean to say anything before.

0:11:370:11:40

That's OK.

0:11:400:11:41

Are you and David celebrating tonight?

0:11:410:11:43

-Brian is always early.

-Actually, my birthday isn't till Thursday.

0:11:440:11:48

Are you and David celebrating Thursday night?

0:11:480:11:50

No, Mary Beth, we are not.

0:11:500:11:51

David doesn't know it's my birthday.

0:11:520:11:54

And that's fine.

0:11:540:11:56

Oh, Christine, I know you're shy about your birthday, but I...

0:11:570:11:59

I'm not shy about it, I just... think it's silly to make

0:11:590:12:02

a big deal out of something that's really not that big a deal.

0:12:020:12:05

You are sounding like you're over the hill

0:12:050:12:07

because you're going to be 39 years old.

0:12:070:12:09

I am not over the hill.

0:12:090:12:11

On the other hand,

0:12:120:12:13

I am up high enough where I'm getting a pretty good view.

0:12:130:12:16

You're thinking very old-fashioned here, Christine, you know that?

0:12:160:12:19

All the magazine articles say that a woman does not

0:12:190:12:21

even start her prime until she's 40 years old.

0:12:210:12:23

And all those glamorous actresses say exactly the same thing,

0:12:230:12:26

and take a look at them.

0:12:260:12:27

Laugh lines only.

0:12:270:12:29

Linda Evans is 43 years old, already.

0:12:290:12:31

-That is four years older than you...

-All right, Mary Beth.

0:12:310:12:34

-..and I heard Joan Collins was 68...

-All right, Mary Beth.

0:12:340:12:36

Take a look at Lena Horne.

0:12:360:12:37

I mean, the thing I love about birthdays is that it's a

0:12:370:12:39

kind of a once a year time when your whole life passes before your eyes.

0:12:390:12:43

That's what they say about people who are drowning.

0:12:460:12:49

And Agent Hornby would like to assist us in every way possible.

0:12:550:12:58

Any plutonium theft, of course, falls under federal jurisdiction.

0:12:580:13:02

Normally, we work in conjunction with NEST.

0:13:020:13:04

NEST?

0:13:040:13:06

Nuclear Emergency Search Team.

0:13:060:13:07

Ah.

0:13:070:13:09

But, according to the documentation that you brought back

0:13:090:13:12

certifying the small amount of plutonium missing,

0:13:120:13:15

I think we can handle this among ourselves, don't you?

0:13:150:13:17

-No doubt in my mind.

-We'll do our best, sir.

0:13:170:13:20

Good, good.

0:13:200:13:22

We'd like to take advantage

0:13:220:13:24

of the expertise of the local police department.

0:13:240:13:27

No question you have information sources we don't.

0:13:270:13:30

Can't argue with that.

0:13:300:13:31

As Lieutenant Samuels knows, we like to maintain a very low profile.

0:13:330:13:38

I prefer to work behind-the-scenes.

0:13:380:13:42

-As discreetly as possible.

-We know that, Agent Hornby.

0:13:420:13:45

We've all worked with federal agents before.

0:13:450:13:47

Sir, exactly how are you going to assist us, sir?

0:13:470:13:51

I will observe and analyse your investigation, making pertinent

0:13:510:13:54

suggestions when necessary.

0:13:540:13:55

What you're saying is you want us to be your beard.

0:13:550:13:58

That's one way of looking at it, Sergeant, um...

0:13:580:14:01

Cagney.

0:14:010:14:02

Of course.

0:14:040:14:06

I won't forget that again.

0:14:060:14:09

Think we all understand each other here.

0:14:110:14:13

Now...

0:14:150:14:16

CLEARS THROAT

0:14:160:14:17

Presuming these thieves didn't know what they had...

0:14:190:14:21

Excuse me, sir, but we figure they must have.

0:14:210:14:23

From the papers that Dr Stanley said were in the suitcase.

0:14:230:14:26

Why else would Wilkins' partner take the time to grab the phial?

0:14:260:14:29

He was being chased by two cops.

0:14:290:14:30

Then you'd better find his accomplice and determine

0:14:300:14:32

what he intended to do with it.

0:14:320:14:34

Pertinent suggestions - give me a break.

0:14:370:14:40

Christine, he might turn out to be very helpful here.

0:14:410:14:44

How many cases have we had like this?

0:14:440:14:46

So it's missing plutonium, so what? It's the same procedures.

0:14:460:14:50

Can't let him intimidate you, Mary Beth.

0:14:500:14:53

Ah-ha.

0:14:530:14:54

Detective Lacey, Fourteenth.

0:14:570:14:59

Yes, Dr Giordano.

0:15:000:15:01

He's conscious but he's still in critical condition.

0:15:010:15:03

You're going to have to make it brief.

0:15:030:15:05

The plutonium made his condition a lot worse?

0:15:050:15:08

No, not yet anyway. It moves a lot slower than that.

0:15:080:15:10

But with the kind of dosage he had, the plutonium will catch up

0:15:100:15:13

with him, all right.

0:15:130:15:14

-Is it fatal?

-We're talking lung cancer - first anyway.

0:15:140:15:17

Maybe bone cancer, too.

0:15:170:15:19

First, his weight will drop, then he'll start coughing blood.

0:15:190:15:22

Do you have any idea how he contracted this plutonium?

0:15:220:15:24

-He snorted it.

-Dear Lord.

0:15:240:15:26

Silvery white powder, he said.

0:15:260:15:28

I guess he was already coked up when he tried it.

0:15:280:15:31

The ultimate high, huh?

0:15:310:15:33

His family's in here with him now.

0:15:330:15:34

MACHINE BEEPS

0:15:370:15:38

Now we know who we're looking for - one Dan Gorham.

0:16:000:16:03

Dropout student and aspiring plutonium dealer.

0:16:030:16:05

Oh, I don't know, Christine, about Gorham selling this stuff.

0:16:050:16:09

From what that kid said about Gorham, he would've sold anything.

0:16:090:16:12

They were on their way to meet friends when the car crash.

0:16:120:16:14

The shape Wilkins is in, I don't think he's lying.

0:16:140:16:16

Figure that kid.

0:16:170:16:19

Parents are uptown people, they care about their son,

0:16:190:16:21

I mean, anybody could see that.

0:16:210:16:23

What makes a boy with everything start breaking into cars?

0:16:230:16:26

-Easy money.

-Easy money? What do you mean?

0:16:260:16:30

The privileges he was born with... And he threw it away.

0:16:300:16:33

He didn't care.

0:16:330:16:34

I hate it when people don't care.

0:16:350:16:36

Dan Gorham's brother says he and you used to be roommates...

0:16:360:16:39

I already spoke to radiation control.

0:16:390:16:41

..not since last semester...

0:16:410:16:42

They told me that the Nuclear Regulatory Commissions...

0:16:430:16:46

..I see, thank you very much.

0:16:460:16:47

Yes, I do understand it's after hours, but if you could...

0:16:470:16:50

Hello?

0:16:510:16:52

You have anything on Gorham?

0:16:570:16:58

Like the parents said, they didn't know many of his friends.

0:16:580:17:01

Old girlfriend says he started

0:17:010:17:02

running around with a different crowd,

0:17:020:17:04

-thought maybe he was dealing dope.

-Nope, just plutonium.

0:17:040:17:07

-Bigger profits.

-We don't know that.

0:17:070:17:09

We don't know a damn thing, Mary Beth.

0:17:090:17:12

How am I supposed to find out how this guy can sell this stuff if

0:17:120:17:14

government agencies won't give me a straight answer?

0:17:140:17:16

What about that person from the Department of Health

0:17:160:17:19

who said they'd call you back?

0:17:190:17:20

Oh, yeah, get this - all I have to do is fill out a 49

0:17:200:17:24

with my superiors and then I can submit my questions in writing.

0:17:240:17:27

And after I do that, they'll get back to us.

0:17:270:17:29

I wish we were talking drugs.

0:17:300:17:32

Dealers, sources, at least we'd know where to start.

0:17:320:17:35

Well, burning the midnight oil tonight, Detectives?

0:17:350:17:37

Hiya, Lynn.

0:17:370:17:38

I see that reporters can't keep decent hours either.

0:17:380:17:42

Certainly not when we're trying to get a line

0:17:420:17:44

on how some small-time thief got himself contaminated with plutonium.

0:17:440:17:47

Contaminated with what?

0:17:500:17:52

Come on, Cagney.

0:17:520:17:53

I've got very reliable sources.

0:17:530:17:55

I understand the plutonium is still missing.

0:17:570:17:59

Detective Lacey,

0:18:010:18:02

if there's missing plutonium out there,

0:18:020:18:04

the people in the city need to know about it.

0:18:040:18:06

Lynn, you know better than to ask us

0:18:060:18:07

to comment on an ongoing investigation.

0:18:070:18:10

I'm talking about more than some poor guy like Wilkins who

0:18:100:18:13

happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time

0:18:130:18:15

and gets himself exposed to the stuff.

0:18:150:18:19

Do you have any idea what you've got?

0:18:190:18:21

Look, I'm quoting here,

0:18:230:18:25

"There is a shortage of plutonium available for the construction

0:18:250:18:29

"of nuclear warheads."

0:18:290:18:31

That tells me there's quite a buyer's market out there.

0:18:330:18:36

You got your major powers.

0:18:360:18:38

You've got your terrorists.

0:18:380:18:40

You've got your enterprising extortionists.

0:18:400:18:42

Maybe a crazy college kid with a genius IQ.

0:18:420:18:45

Think you've been watching too many James Bond movies, Sutter.

0:18:450:18:48

Do you know how much plutonium ends up being unaccounted for every year?

0:18:490:18:53

-I'm sure you're going to tell us.

-I wish I could.

0:18:530:18:56

I'm a hotshot reporter with a major metropolitan newspaper

0:18:580:19:01

and I can't get the facts. Nobody is talking.

0:19:010:19:05

Now, this stuff ends up somewhere.

0:19:050:19:07

I'd sure like to know where, wouldn't you?

0:19:070:19:09

Great, Sutter.

0:19:100:19:12

Why don't you go on and save the world and just let us do our job?

0:19:120:19:15

From the doctor told me about radiation,

0:19:180:19:20

Wilkins was lucky he didn't make it.

0:19:200:19:23

What are you talking about?

0:19:230:19:25

He died.

0:19:260:19:27

An hour ago.

0:19:280:19:29

Why the hell weren't we notified?

0:19:300:19:32

Well, maybe you should get permission from the

0:19:320:19:34

federal authorities to check it out, Sergeant.

0:19:340:19:36

From what I hear, there the ones running your case so far.

0:19:360:19:39

Agent Hornby, we did not give any information to the press.

0:19:430:19:47

So where did the leak come from?

0:19:470:19:48

You and your partner both listed plutonium contamination

0:19:480:19:51

on the original 61.

0:19:510:19:52

So, obviously the press has an informant on the NYPD payroll.

0:19:520:19:55

I'd like to know your source to make that assumption.

0:19:560:19:59

-Then where did the leak come from?

-The hospital?

0:19:590:20:01

The press knew about Wilkins' death before we did, for crying out loud.

0:20:010:20:04

I don't have time for conjecture, I'm looking for results.

0:20:040:20:07

You want results? Good idea.

0:20:070:20:09

Why don't you use some of that federal clout of yours

0:20:090:20:11

to get us into the Nuclear Regulatory Commission?

0:20:110:20:14

And I thought you had everything under control, Sergeant. I guess not.

0:20:140:20:17

I'll get us an appointment this afternoon.

0:20:170:20:19

Lieutenant, please impress upon your detectives

0:20:190:20:21

the requirements of the agency - no problems, no publicity.

0:20:210:20:24

Otherwise we'll have to re-examine our cooperation with the NYPD.

0:20:240:20:27

Agent Hornby,

0:20:280:20:30

let me impress upon you that my detectives know how to do their job.

0:20:300:20:34

You told him, Lieutenant.

0:20:450:20:47

Isn't there some place you got to go, Sergeant?

0:20:470:20:49

If people would just inform themselves,

0:20:580:21:00

they wouldn't be nearly so intimidated by nuclear technology.

0:21:000:21:02

That's exactly what we're trying to do.

0:21:020:21:05

You were telling us about the plutonium 238, Mrs Delicath.

0:21:050:21:08

In simple terms, it's primarily used to power satellites.

0:21:090:21:14

In simple terms, what would be the market for this kind of plutonium?

0:21:140:21:17

Beats me.

0:21:170:21:18

It's not weapons grade. All it's good for is research.

0:21:180:21:21

-Not nuclear research?

-Not in this country.

0:21:210:21:23

Other countries, then?

0:21:230:21:25

Not officially.

0:21:250:21:26

How about unofficially?

0:21:260:21:27

The way my people work is,

0:21:270:21:30

we like to focus on the immediate facts of this case.

0:21:300:21:33

Let's not get into some long-term speculation.

0:21:330:21:36

I would like to hear what Mrs Delicath has to say, sir.

0:21:360:21:40

Look, it's no secret, there are a number of foreign nations

0:21:400:21:43

eager to expand their knowledge of nuclear technology.

0:21:430:21:45

Build their own bomb, you mean?

0:21:450:21:48

Mm, stands to reason they'd be in the market for any plutonium

0:21:480:21:50

they could buy.

0:21:500:21:51

By the time they find out it isn't weapons-grade,

0:21:510:21:53

it's too late for a refund.

0:21:530:21:55

We're going off in a direction that's very unlikely.

0:21:550:21:57

But the plutonium 238 itself is harmless?

0:21:590:22:01

I wouldn't say that.

0:22:010:22:03

Accidents could happen if the wrong people got hold of it.

0:22:030:22:05

The wrong people?

0:22:050:22:07

Terrorists.

0:22:070:22:09

Well, even this kind of plutonium could be added to a standard

0:22:090:22:12

TNT bomb to engineer some sort of radioactive fallout.

0:22:120:22:14

All sorts of possibilities for demented minds.

0:22:150:22:17

We really don't have time for this kind of speculation.

0:22:170:22:21

You come in here taking my time, Agent Hornby.

0:22:210:22:24

I'm not going to sugar-coat the facts to make them go down easier.

0:22:240:22:27

Pounding the pavement with Hornby breathing down our neck

0:22:310:22:34

and not a damn thing to show for it.

0:22:340:22:36

Let's go over it again.

0:22:360:22:37

And then he blames us, saying the publicity on Wilkins' death

0:22:370:22:40

is driving Gorham into the woodwork.

0:22:400:22:42

Hell, it should be driving him to a hospital to find out

0:22:420:22:44

whether or not he was contaminated.

0:22:440:22:46

Well, Wilkins said he was the only one that snorted the stuff.

0:22:460:22:49

Quote, "Gorham started to touch the phial

0:22:490:22:51

"but he changed his mind and went and washed his hands," unquote.

0:22:510:22:55

See, that's what I'm talking about.

0:22:550:22:56

He knew enough to be scared.

0:22:560:22:58

What he doesn't know is how much of that stuff he's been exposed to.

0:22:580:23:01

So, if he thinks that Wilkins died because of the contamination,

0:23:020:23:07

then he should be trying to get help.

0:23:070:23:10

Tomorrow, we start checking emergency rooms.

0:23:110:23:13

Yeah, tomorrow.

0:23:170:23:18

FAIRGROUND MUSIC PLAYS

0:23:190:23:22

I brought you here for the best fish and chips in Coney Island,

0:23:240:23:26

not corn dogs.

0:23:260:23:28

-It's my party.

-Ha-ha-ha.

0:23:300:23:32

Do you know how many times you asked me to bring you here

0:23:330:23:36

on your birthday when you were a kid?

0:23:360:23:37

A lot.

0:23:380:23:40

After, we'll go to Maurie's and shoot a few games of pool,

0:23:400:23:43

-just like the old days.

-Maurie's?

-Mm-hmm.

0:23:430:23:45

I didn't know that was open anymore.

0:23:450:23:47

Are you kidding? Maurie's, where I taught you to shoot pool?

0:23:470:23:49

Come on, it hasn't been that many years.

0:23:490:23:53

It seems like it sometimes.

0:23:530:23:55

Rough week at work?

0:23:580:23:59

It's not an easy case.

0:24:000:24:02

Can't Samuels give you some backup?

0:24:020:24:03

The backup I have I'd like to get rid of.

0:24:030:24:05

It's not so simple anymore.

0:24:110:24:14

-Want to take a walk?

-Yeah, yeah, sure.

0:24:140:24:16

It's not like the good old days, Charlie.

0:24:240:24:26

When you used to bring me down here.

0:24:260:24:28

No, honey, it wasn't simple then, either.

0:24:280:24:30

You were just a kid, that's all, you didn't know any better.

0:24:300:24:32

Now that you're grown up, it's a whole different world.

0:24:320:24:36

Yeah.

0:24:360:24:37

It sure feels that way.

0:24:370:24:38

Hey, happy birthday, baby.

0:24:400:24:43

-Thanks, Charlie.

-Ha-ha.

I don't believe it, when did they put this thing in here?

Oh, you must be disappointed, Chris.

0:25:020:25:03

I don't know, Charlie.

0:25:060:25:08

You always said we should keep up with the times.

Tell you what, I'll challenge you to a game of Pacman.

Hey, that's my birthday girl. You're on.

What the hell is Pacman?

I'll show you.

I'm going to go and check on the baby.

0:25:260:25:28

Honey, she just got to sleep.

0:25:280:25:29

I want to be sure she didn't kick her blankets off. I'll be very...

0:25:290:25:32

-Sweetheart.

-..quiet.

0:25:320:25:34

Hey, Mike, I said 'bed' ten minutes ago.

0:25:350:25:38

Harvey, TV time's over.

0:25:380:25:39

-It was a lousy programme anyway.

-Don't be a hard case, Harvey.

0:25:410:25:45

Goodnight, sweetheart.

0:25:450:25:46

So peaceful.

0:25:530:25:55

It's amazing how she can shut the whole world out.

0:25:550:25:57

-Goodnight, Mom.

-Goodnight, sweetheart.

0:25:570:25:59

Hey!

0:26:000:26:01

Want to say goodnight to your mother?

0:26:020:26:05

What, just because you're 16 you're too big to kiss me goodnight?

0:26:050:26:08

-Goodnight, Mom.

-Come here.

0:26:080:26:09

Goodnight.

0:26:110:26:12

I thought that once we found a house

0:26:190:26:20

he'd start feeling happier about moving.

0:26:200:26:22

Before it was only talk - now he knows it's for real.

0:26:220:26:25

It's going to be hard for him, Harvey.

0:26:250:26:26

Having to transfer schools and making new friends.

0:26:270:26:31

Mary Beth, I went to four different schools. Each time I made it work.

0:26:310:26:34

Harvey will too.

0:26:340:26:35

-Honey...

-Yeah?

0:26:370:26:38

-You're always reading those news magazines.

-Hmm?

0:26:380:26:42

I don't know anybody that pays more attention to that stuff than you do.

0:26:430:26:47

Harvey, before I started working on this case I'm working on,

0:26:490:26:53

do you remember ever reading anything about there being

0:26:530:26:55

plutonium missing?

0:26:550:26:57

What do you mean by missing?

0:26:580:27:00

What do you mean, what do I mean by missing?

0:27:000:27:02

Gone. Lost.

0:27:020:27:04

Not there for bed-check when they lock up at night.

0:27:040:27:07

Yeah, I think I might have heard of something like that before.

0:27:070:27:10

You MIGHT have?

0:27:100:27:12

Does that make you a little nervous, Harvey?

0:27:140:27:17

Mary Beth, it doesn't do any good to think about that kind of stuff.

0:27:170:27:20

I wish I didn't have to think about some of the things

0:27:210:27:24

I heard about today, but that doesn't make it go away.

0:27:240:27:27

Mary Beth...

0:27:300:27:31

..the government and the scientists - they are the ones

0:27:320:27:35

running the show.

0:27:350:27:36

People like you and me - we don't have a thing to say about it.

0:27:360:27:40

Harvey, you don't really believe that?

0:27:400:27:42

Do you know how lucky we are to keep the genie in the bottle this long?

0:27:420:27:45

They can't do it forever though.

0:27:450:27:47

Well, what the heck does that mean?

0:27:470:27:49

You and I are making a new home for our family.

0:27:490:27:51

I'm planning on a future.

0:27:510:27:53

Mary Beth, we are all sitting ducks. If somebody presses the wrong button.

0:27:540:27:59

It is a fact of life, just like babies being born,

0:27:590:28:02

you just got to learn to live with it.

0:28:020:28:03

The way it was, soldiers fought the wars,

0:28:030:28:05

today, everybody is a target.

0:28:050:28:07

Men, women, kids - it doesn't matter.

0:28:070:28:09

The big balloon goes up - it's all over.

0:28:090:28:12

Well, that's terrific, Harvey.

0:28:130:28:15

With a big balloon out there,

0:28:150:28:16

why do we bother getting up tomorrow morning?!

0:28:160:28:18

You're going to wake up the baby.

0:28:180:28:20

We may as well give up right now.

0:28:200:28:21

Will you calm down about this?

0:28:210:28:23

The way you tell it, we might as well put our hands over our head,

0:28:230:28:25

bend over and kiss our tales goodbye!

0:28:250:28:27

Go in there and tell that to your brand-new baby daughter.

0:28:270:28:30

BABY CRIES

0:28:300:28:31

I told you.

0:28:330:28:35

BABY SCREAMS

0:28:350:28:36

I am telling you, this is our best shot.

0:28:450:28:47

We've combed every emergency room from the Bowery

0:28:470:28:50

to Washington Heights and there's nobody that comes close

0:28:500:28:52

to Gorham's description.

0:28:520:28:53

-We still have the West Side to cover, sir.

-Not on my time.

0:28:530:28:57

Ladies, it isn't working.

0:28:570:28:59

So what, we go back and show Gorham's picture

0:28:590:29:01

to every panhandler on 42nd Street?

0:29:010:29:03

Your reliable informants, Sergeant, let's see how reliable they are.

0:29:030:29:06

Our informants do not know the street value of plutonium.

0:29:060:29:09

Hell, they don't even know what plutonium is.

0:29:090:29:11

I'm not interested in a wild goose chase here.

0:29:110:29:14

You're not interested in anything!

0:29:140:29:16

Sergeant, if your local resources keep coming up dry,

0:29:160:29:18

then maybe it's time to take a new approach with a new team.

0:29:180:29:22

Do you love it? We do all the legwork

0:29:250:29:27

and he takes the credit with the brass in Washington.

0:29:270:29:29

-No-one's taking credit for anything until we find Gorham.

-Yes, sir.

0:29:290:29:32

With the publicity on Wilkins' death, I was sure he would...

0:29:330:29:36

Publicity on Wilkin's...?

0:29:360:29:38

You know, Cagney, that's where we've gone wrong.

0:29:380:29:40

It should be targeted at Gorham.

0:29:400:29:43

If he didn't care about his buddy then Gorham might come crawling

0:29:430:29:46

out of the woodwork if he thought he was the one that was contaminated?

0:29:460:29:49

Well, I think it is our duty to alert Gorham

0:29:490:29:51

that he should definitely seek medical attention!

0:29:510:29:54

The six o'clock news and every newspaper - as soon as possible.

0:29:540:29:58

-What did I start here?

-What?! Lieutenant!

0:29:580:30:00

What, using the press to smoke out a perp?!

0:30:000:30:02

You said - we do, we've done it before.

0:30:020:30:04

Yeah.

0:30:040:30:05

Not when the federal authorities have instructed us

0:30:050:30:08

to keep a low profile.

0:30:080:30:09

Mary Beth, Hornby has been using the 14th like errand boys.

0:30:090:30:12

Coming in here, running us around, telling us what to do...

0:30:120:30:15

Cagney, come on, you're a professional.

0:30:150:30:18

When are you finally going to learn that

0:30:180:30:19

you've got to work with the powers that be?

0:30:190:30:21

Well, Lieutenant, you said.

0:30:210:30:23

-He could steal this from us any time he wanted.

-Yeah.

0:30:230:30:27

Yeah, he can do that.

0:30:270:30:29

Sir, I think that Lynn Sutter may be interested in helping us here.

0:30:310:30:35

-You think so, huh?

-Yes, sir.

0:30:350:30:36

Hornby's worried about a press leak.

0:30:420:30:44

I'll give him a press leak.

0:30:440:30:47

555 2424, sir.

0:30:470:30:49

What time do you have?

0:31:000:31:01

Six minutes later than the last time you asked me.

0:31:030:31:05

That late edition came out three hours ago.

0:31:080:31:10

And what do you want to do? You want to notify all the

0:31:100:31:12

ERs and clinics in all the five boroughs again?

0:31:120:31:14

Why don't you go on home? I'll call you if something comes in.

0:31:160:31:19

No, I told Harvey it'd be a late night when he called.

0:31:190:31:21

-He sounded so anxious, that's all.

-So go home!

0:31:230:31:25

This case is as important to me as it is to you, Sergeant.

0:31:260:31:29

It's silly for the two of us to be sitting around here

0:31:290:31:31

waiting like this.

0:31:310:31:32

So you go home!

0:31:320:31:34

You are so stubborn.

0:31:360:31:37

Look who's talking.

0:31:370:31:39

Tell you what...

0:31:420:31:43

..I'll flip a coin.

0:31:440:31:46

-Heads - I stay, tails - you stay, all right?

-All right.

0:31:460:31:50

You win!

0:31:520:31:53

-Does that mean I stay?

-No, it means you go.

0:31:560:31:58

-Christine...

-Mary Beth, Harvey's waiting.

0:31:580:32:01

This is your sergeant speaking!

0:32:020:32:04

I think the fix was in.

0:32:070:32:09

Nobody said life was fair, Mary Beth.

0:32:090:32:11

Hi.

0:32:170:32:19

Congratulations, Mrs Lacey.

0:32:190:32:21

Let me be the first to welcome you to your new residence

0:32:210:32:24

in Fresh Meadows.

0:32:240:32:25

We got the house?

0:32:280:32:29

I made them an offer they couldn't refuse.

0:32:290:32:31

-Oh, Harvey, I can't believe it.

-Oh, baby.

0:32:340:32:36

I can't believe it.

0:32:370:32:39

-Our own house?!

-Our own house.

0:32:400:32:42

Oh, you know what Mrs Jacoby calls it?

0:32:420:32:44

She calls it, "an investment in our future."

0:32:440:32:47

Our future, Mary Beth.

0:32:480:32:49

Here's to our future.

0:32:510:32:52

SHE WEEPS

0:32:530:32:55

You know the first thing I'm going to build, Mary Beth?

0:32:560:32:58

I'm going to build a backyard barbecue and then,

0:32:580:33:01

then I'm going to build a tree house for Michael.

0:33:010:33:04

And then I'm going to build a sandbox for Alice.

0:33:040:33:07

How's Harvey Jr dealing with the news?

0:33:070:33:09

Not terrific.

0:33:090:33:11

In fact, I think he would probably be glad to see his mother right now.

0:33:120:33:15

Break your eardrums wearing that thing.

0:33:430:33:44

I'll survive.

0:33:450:33:47

You'll survive starting a new school, too.

0:33:480:33:50

Harvey, we're not going to be that far away.

0:33:510:33:53

You can invite your old friends over any time you like.

0:33:530:33:56

It's not the same!

0:33:560:33:57

Mom, I don't care about a new house.

0:33:590:34:01

I don't care if I have to share my room with Michael.

0:34:020:34:05

-Why do we have to move?

-Because we want something better.

0:34:060:34:09

Yeah.

0:34:090:34:11

And what if you and Dad hate the neighbours?

0:34:110:34:13

What if the house starts falling apart?

0:34:130:34:15

-What if...? I just...

-Sweetie,

0:34:150:34:17

sometimes when you want something very badly, you have to take risks.

0:34:170:34:21

And you don't know if everything

0:34:210:34:22

is going to turn out to be the way you want.

0:34:220:34:24

And that's the scary thing - you don't know.

0:34:240:34:27

But you can't let that stop you.

0:34:270:34:29

I think that if you want something badly enough you have to try things.

0:34:290:34:33

And hope, and trust that they turn out to be all right.

0:34:330:34:36

PHONE RINGS

0:34:360:34:38

It's not going to be all right, I know it.

0:34:380:34:39

Hey, I know that everything does not have a happy ending.

0:34:400:34:43

But I think we have to believe in it anyways.

0:34:430:34:45

How else could we go on,

0:34:460:34:48

if we don't believe that everything is going to be OK?

0:34:480:34:50

KNOCK ON THE DOOR

0:34:520:34:54

I'm sorry to interrupt - Chris said it's urgent.

0:34:540:34:56

Thanks.

0:34:560:34:57

It's our family, Harvey.

0:35:000:35:01

We have too much at stake for any one of us to let the other one down.

0:35:020:35:05

It's going to be a big change.

0:35:060:35:09

But to make it work, we all have to commit to it, Harve.

0:35:090:35:11

You're in this too.

0:35:120:35:14

It's up to you too.

0:35:140:35:15

Be strong, baby.

0:35:190:35:20

Yeah, did you get anything?

0:35:310:35:32

People's Free Clinic on West 23rd Street, Mary Beth.

0:35:320:35:34

A 19-year-old fitting Dan Gorham's description is currently

0:35:340:35:38

undergoing lab tests for plutonium poisoning.

0:35:380:35:40

I'm having uniforms bring him in.

0:35:410:35:43

You'd better call Hornby.

0:35:430:35:44

Chris... I heard.

0:35:460:35:47

-I love you.

-Love you.

0:35:540:35:55

SIRENS IN DISTANCE

0:35:590:36:00

I'm not saying anything until I get the results of those lab tests.

0:36:030:36:06

Hey, I touched that damn phial too, you know.

0:36:100:36:13

But you didn't snort the plutonium.

0:36:130:36:14

According to the doctor, you're safe enough.

0:36:140:36:17

Where is he?

0:36:180:36:19

You're welcome to another body search, lady.

0:36:190:36:22

You think you're real smart, don't you, Gorham?

0:36:220:36:25

A lot smarter than the other punks we get in here, right?

0:36:250:36:27

Cos you got a couple of semesters of college under your belt?

0:36:270:36:30

Cos your parents have some fancy address in Scarsdale?

0:36:300:36:33

I bet they're real proud of their son, the thief.

0:36:330:36:35

Yeah, thief is one thing. But he runs out on his pal.

0:36:350:36:38

Danny boy here didn't care.

0:36:380:36:40

He's got the plutonium.

0:36:400:36:41

You can get a lot more money for that

0:36:420:36:44

than you can fencing car stereos right, kid?

0:36:440:36:46

And that way he didn't have to split the profits

0:36:460:36:48

with poor dumb Jimmy.

0:36:480:36:49

Yeah, that was real convenient that car crash wiping out your buddy.

0:36:490:36:52

-No wonder you left him there to die.

-Hey, I couldn't help him.

0:36:540:36:57

Did you try?

0:36:570:36:58

You ever think about what plutonium can be used for?

0:37:010:37:04

How many people can be hurt?

0:37:040:37:05

One person died already, he can't wait to be responsible for more.

0:37:050:37:09

I thought you were a lot smarter than this, Gorham.

0:37:090:37:12

Stealing plutonium is a federal offence unless,

0:37:120:37:14

of course, you like the idea of sitting on your butt

0:37:140:37:17

for the next 20 years in a federal penitentiary.

0:37:170:37:19

What's in it for me?

0:37:250:37:27

Less time, maybe.

0:37:290:37:30

That's not enough.

0:37:330:37:35

You help us...

0:37:350:37:36

..we'll let you know what we can do for you.

0:37:370:37:39

I already sold it.

0:37:420:37:44

Who did you sell it to?

0:37:460:37:47

A guy a buddy of mine set me up with.

0:37:470:37:50

He said he could move it to some overseas contacts.

0:37:500:37:52

-Where did you set up the deal?

-The guy's office.

0:37:560:37:59

-Queens.

-Where in Queens?

0:38:000:38:01

-There ain't been nobody in this place in over six months.

-Looks it.

0:38:070:38:11

Told you this place was a dump.

0:38:110:38:13

Look, this is where I met the guy, I swear it.

0:38:130:38:15

Damn thing.

0:38:220:38:23

Brand-new set and the law stiffs me.

0:38:230:38:26

Can't trust nobody nowadays.

0:38:260:38:28

CARS BEEP

0:38:330:38:35

We think that Gorham is telling the truth, sir.

0:38:350:38:37

He is too smart to lead us down the garden path when

0:38:370:38:39

his tail's on the line.

0:38:390:38:40

So the landlord is lying?

0:38:400:38:42

Maybe, maybe not.

0:38:420:38:44

The man Gorham met could have been a former tenant.

0:38:440:38:46

Could have been a friend of a tenant with a key.

0:38:460:38:48

Forensics has already dusted for prints, Lieutenant.

0:38:480:38:50

They must've come up with something.

0:38:500:38:52

I've already ordered the results on to Washington.

0:38:520:38:54

We've done all we can here, Lieutenant.

0:38:540:38:56

WE?

0:38:560:38:57

My people are prepared to assume full authority on this.

0:38:570:39:00

You can't do that!

0:39:000:39:02

-Cagney...

-What?

0:39:020:39:03

Cagney, please.

0:39:030:39:04

Hornby, I think our detectives have got a handle on this now.

0:39:050:39:08

Damn right, we do.

0:39:080:39:09

What the hell are you talking about? This case gets more out of control

0:39:110:39:14

by the minute.

0:39:140:39:15

Thanks to the NYPD, last night the Gorham case was a headline story

0:39:150:39:19

on every newscast in the city.

0:39:190:39:22

Hornby, in my judgment that was the right decision.

0:39:220:39:25

Worked, didn't it?

0:39:250:39:27

A delicate case like this requires sensitivity and discretion.

0:39:270:39:31

There is certain information the public can't deal with.

0:39:310:39:33

What information is that, Agent Hornby?

0:39:330:39:36

I think there is something else bothering Agent Hornby.

0:39:380:39:41

Like the fact that the plutonium is still missing.

0:39:420:39:45

That's going to be embarrassing, isn't it?

0:39:450:39:49

Thank you, Lieutenant, for your cooperation in this case.

0:39:490:39:52

I assure you it will remain high on our priority list.

0:39:520:39:55

So, how long before somebody sells that plutonium

0:39:550:39:57

to the highest bidder?

0:39:570:39:59

Detective Lacey, this really isn't your problem.

0:39:590:40:02

It isn't my problem?

0:40:020:40:03

Dan Gorham fenced that poison 28 blocks from my home.

0:40:040:40:07

What the hell do you mean it's not my problem?

0:40:070:40:10

This is exactly the kind of attitude that breeds overreaction.

0:40:100:40:12

Getting emotional like this...

0:40:120:40:14

Well, somebody better get emotional

0:40:140:40:15

cos we're talking people's lives here!

0:40:150:40:17

I assure you, Detective.

0:40:170:40:19

This will be handled by experts in these kinds of cases.

0:40:190:40:23

They'll keep it under control.

0:40:230:40:25

Now, if you'll just step aside and let us get on with our work.

0:40:250:40:28

I don't believe you, Hornby. Not anymore.

0:40:280:40:30

You're not going a damn thing about it, but I am.

0:40:300:40:32

I'm going to do something about it!

0:40:320:40:34

-Lacey...

-I apologise, Lieutenant, I'm sorry.

0:40:340:40:36

But there's craziness out there and nobody is doing

0:40:360:40:39

anything about it because somebody else is supposed to be in charge!

0:40:390:40:42

We'll monitor this case as best we can,

0:40:420:40:44

I promise you that we're not going to forget it.

0:40:440:40:46

I'm not only talking about this case, sir.

0:40:470:40:50

PHONE RINGS

0:40:500:40:51

I don't know what I'm going to do...

0:40:540:40:55

but I'm going to find out.

0:40:550:40:58

I'm going to find out what to do.

0:40:590:41:00

Er, excuse me for interrupting, Lieutenant.

0:41:010:41:03

There's a parcel over here for Sergeant Cagney.

0:41:030:41:06

Oh, I'll get it later, Coleman.

0:41:060:41:08

Erm, it requires your signature, Cagney.

0:41:080:41:11

Excuse me.

0:41:140:41:16

-Sergeant Christine Cagney?

-Oh, yes.

0:41:210:41:24

Detectives Newman, Isbecki, Petrie, Corassa, Sergeant Coleman

0:41:240:41:28

asked that I give you the following message...

0:41:280:41:30

You'd better sit down for this one, Sarge.

0:41:300:41:32

Happy birthday, baby!

0:41:320:41:35

I'm your...Mr wonderful.

0:41:350:41:38

# A cowboy in love On the trail of life

0:41:410:41:45

# In my parked car, Under the stars... #

0:41:450:41:49

-This was your idea, right?

-Isbecki even wrote the lyrics.

0:41:490:41:53

# Happy birthday to you. #

0:41:530:41:57

Ah, happy birthday.

0:42:060:42:09

ALL: Happy birthday.

0:42:090:42:10

-It's called an agave plant.

-Ah.

0:42:160:42:19

AKA, a sanctuary plant.

0:42:190:42:21

I first saw them when Harvey took me and the boys

0:42:210:42:23

to the botanical gardens a couple of weeks ago.

0:42:230:42:25

And the special thing about this plant

0:42:250:42:28

is that it blooms only once in 20 years.

0:42:280:42:30

Well, something to look forward to.

0:42:300:42:32

Thank you.

0:42:320:42:34

I'll get you something grand, you know,

0:42:340:42:36

for next year, for the big 4-0.

0:42:360:42:38

But, anyways, for now,

0:42:380:42:41

here's to your 39th birthday - long may she wave.

0:42:410:42:45

She already wove, Mary Beth.

0:42:450:42:48

Huh?

0:42:480:42:50

This is my 40th.

0:42:530:42:55

Oh, no, Christine.

I distinctively remember last year when I took you to

0:42:570:42:59

that Chinese restaurant.

0:42:590:43:00

Some place between the egg rolls and the pork you told me

0:43:000:43:03

you were 38.

0:43:030:43:04

-I lied.

-You lied?

0:43:040:43:06

Well, it was a white lie.

0:43:060:43:07

There wasn't really much point, I was just sort of...kidding around.

0:43:080:43:13

For one year?

0:43:130:43:15

It's not like you said you were 29.

0:43:150:43:16

Or 35 even.

0:43:170:43:19

For one year, you lied?

0:43:190:43:21

What? I didn't lie.

0:43:210:43:22

It wasn't a lie.

0:43:240:43:26

It was an omission.

0:43:260:43:27

Besides, at my age, every year counts.

0:43:290:43:31

Yeah, I guess so.

0:43:330:43:34

So what are you coming clean now for?

0:43:350:43:37

I don't know. It's a sign of maturity, I guess.

0:43:380:43:42

-Ha-ha-ha.

-Ha-ha-ha.

0:43:420:43:44

40, huh?

0:43:440:43:45

Those do make you look younger.

0:43:470:43:50

Yeah?

0:43:500:43:51

Well, like you said, Mary Beth, I'm in my prime.

0:43:540:43:56

Probably should start acting like it, huh?

0:43:580:44:00

Thank you.

0:44:020:44:03

I don't know, Mary Beth.

0:44:070:44:09

Saturdays are going by faster than they used to.

0:44:110:44:13

Huh?

0:44:150:44:16

Well, when I was a kid I hated going to school on my birthday.

0:44:180:44:22

So I'd count ahead to see which years

0:44:240:44:25

my birthday would land on a Saturday.

0:44:250:44:27

7th, 14th, 21st...

0:44:300:44:34

And, um...next one coming up will be my 42nd.

0:44:340:44:39

Not so far away.

0:44:390:44:41

I like Saturdays.

0:44:430:44:45

Must make more of them.

0:44:450:44:47

Me too.

0:44:470:44:49

-Here's to your new house, Mary Beth.

-Yeah.

0:44:540:44:57

And to...more Saturdays,

0:44:570:44:59

Christine.
