by understanding the other man's point of view. and when it came time for me to lead, i saw too many sides of every questioio and then i didn't have the courage to quit. when my prison was taken from me, instead of leaving as i should have i, took this scrap, this joke of a job. i don't think that's what the job has to be, but if that's the way you feel about it, maybe you should resign. you don't understand how s to keep any job, to f fr the unknown, but you're right, i should. help me be brave. hey, you're going to wear out, j.d. i hate polygraphs. you know, you ain't the one taking it. how do you think he's doing, neal? i'll only be guessing, man. i'm telling you, even if he's guilty, this max emily's the kind of nervous little twitch

's a tough read. on 16 different capipil acts, he demonstrates guilt or guilty knowledge. so we're in business. but his reaction to ththtest question was so idiosyncratic that the baseline's bizarre. well, you're not dealing with a flake here, guys. well, where do we stand, mr. bernstein? he either did it or he's a can't-be-tested. your man is definitely a possible, on schneider, wintrope, carter. thanks for all the help. where we going, j.d.? we are dropping a dime to certain journalists in my acquaintance. ththguy didn't exactly give us the full speed ahead, you know. ut the polygraph guy, neal. they're dealing with a total bing-bong, and they want him to test like the man in the street. i think we better wait for forensics and the family witnesses. captain said take it by the numbers. hey, the numbers i'm thinking about all got dollar signs in front of them, neal. yeah, jerry wilmont please. you should have seen this guy out there. this guy was great. well done, stanislaus. oh, i just got lucky out there. after all, it's not like it's the first perp i ever saw. are you kidding. i could barely keep up with this guy. what's the matter, son?

messiness. you know, armchair quarterbacking. to get used to being on the sidelines, isn't it? message for me? forensics wants you to call them, detective. say, sarge. neal, stan just made a collar. no kidding. yeah, i just got lucky. once a cop, right? jimmy, j.d. larue. it's a business call. career call maybe for both of us. out an exclusive on a possible mass murderer, jimbo. yeah, me and neal washington popped him a few hours ago. what? yes, i did call jerry wilmont before i called you. but jerry wilmont couldn't buy my groundrules for the slant of the piece. so now instead of having his hands wrapped around maybe the hottest mass murder story since that creep in florida, jerry wilmont's got his hands wrapped around the morning courrier express. j.d. in a minute, huh. hang up. just a second, jim.

yeah, what about it? well, forensics says we've got problems. ah, i'll get back totoou, jimmy. something came up on another case. what problems? they say this pipiure of max emily with the schneider kid, they say it might be a composite. what composite, where's the join? they say it might be a picture of a picture, j.d. well, that's crap. uhuhuh. easy, that the schneider boy's father. mr. schneider. i was told therereight be information about my son, about his killer. well, we have a possible suspect, sir. might recognize him. oh, yeah, fine. we'll set up a lineup. of course, even if you didn't recognize him, that wouldn't necessarily mean anything. i know, the idea's been the killer probably wasn't known by our family. that's right, i mean, this guy could still be a canandate. ludicrous. unfathomable. hope and pray, sal. that's all we can do now is just hope and pray.

i mean, nothing's happened so far we can't fix. lieutenant, maybe ththhitter's split. lose his 20 g's. who's going to fix things for my sister, doria, huh? forget your sister. is that old man there worth ruining your life over? bubuz: that's russo with her boyfriend dominick. mr. donatelli should've asked me to bid the work. buntz: mr. donatelli's expression is called the oops look. like, oops, did i overplay my hand? o. she plays it out, huh. got to give her credit for her stones. you know, it might do her some good to hear some of that, lieutenant. he's coming out. i want your men on either side of the door. but keep t tm off. tony, put the gun down! i don't know, i don't know what to do. got a clear shot, lieutenant. give him to us.

all right, all right, come on. a jim girardi calling you, detective, from the post gazette. tell him i died. i thought it finally was going to be over. i thought i'd finally know how we lost tommy. look at this, frank -- can you believe this? man says he's leaving. ief daniels. did you know about this, frank? ray said at lunch he decided to resign. bolt from the blue. chief, both of us know i have not been happy, not doing a very good job. a transitional adjustment, ray. you're too hard on yourself. ave been. i have been angry and disappointed. it is better for m to quit look, it's your call. if it's what you want, i certainly won't prevent it.

hell of a guy, eh, frank? nice take dodo on uncle john. sometimes at night, i have dreamt of killing that man. do you get caught? what is it with you? guys like uncle john wind my watch. patrick. makes the day go quicker. mrs. murphy. what? what you said to me before. i'm laughing but i'm not amused. so now what are you trying to say to me, that i'm so much older than you are? no, no i was just remembering, that's all. i liked mrs. murphy. hey, mr. goldfarb. name is bibiao. oh, right, bilbao.

uh-huh, uh-huh. where is the afflicted party? right over this way. renko... you got a lot of nerve. i'm here to assist you, officer. he's going to take it off of you, renko, not that anything was ever on you. yeah, yeah, gogo go on. okay. okay, what am i supposed to do? okay. okay, what are you going to do? you ain't going to believe it, neal. i'm in the john, trying to decide not to rip off my a a and beat myself to death with it. i find that telephone number i lost, the chick i went out with last night. see that, lover, every cloud has a silver lining. no, neal, i callll the number. no good? disconnected. maybe she had a social disease.

something we should get to about the death of steven mercker, lieutenant, about your involvement with steve. is that a dilemma for you? what dilemma? that he was a friend of yours, a good friend, a close friend. that's right. you must disapprove of this vigilante. wa-wa-wait a second. i don't see steve that way. go aheadd steve had a dream. to see our streets free of terror. to w wte. he wrote in obscurity. he got a lot of slaps in the face and rejections, but it didn't stop him. and that was why steven was heroic. because despite all that discouragagent, he stayed true to his dream. and have you read this brave man's pages?

worthy of the hero who wrote them, then. yes. i have a feeling steven merker had a very good friend in you, lieutenant. lieutenant goldblume is reluctant to bring this up, but the man sitting here, himself, played the role of hero at the blantant street hostage situation today, involving the famous, or perhaps i should say notorious, uncle john petruzzi. a lot of us feel a lot safer and perhaps a little bit prouder knowing our city has law enforcement officece of the caliber of the gentleman i'm sitting next to. [ applause ] don's guest tomorrow night are health experts dick and laine coppernaul. how was henry? good. don chesler thinks the cici is safer with cops like him on the force. job for you, furillo. how are the benefits? it's a spot needs kneading.

ahh, mmm, brother. all those years of making dough. [ laughing ] actually he wasn't. who wasn't what? henry wasn't good. i mean, he was fine, but i just kept thinking how lonely and uptight he seemed. you know what henry needs? yep. let's get into that benefit package. nice spot, lieutenant. thank you. his stuff stinks, huh? what do you mean? your friend's writing. i could see you get those scared deer's eyes when i asked if it was any good. night, dot. night, don.

oh, boy. no, i mean it. you were right there. so many guest get all tied up in the buzz. whereas i don't really know what that means. so don't take a compliment. i still don't know how you got me to do this. well, it's what i'm good at. i know what you need now, too. yeah, what? well, aren't you still feeling pretty wound up, jazzed? a drink, minimum. you mean at least one drink? i'm not sure what i mean. undercover is different. because if you're good at it, most times nobody else knows the inside of what you did. so you got to know.

it's not for everybody. it's what i want to be. this will l lp. i'll take you back to your car now.

le rich kids ie phase, their parents are gonna set them up with jobs. your niece is a bright girl. she'll be all right. i said loudspeaker ] pull over.
