00:00:02,670 --> 00:00:10,670
Greetings from scOrp

2
00:00:26,670 --> 00:00:28,380
Come to Los Angeles.

3
00:00:28,790 --> 00:00:30,550
The sun shines bright.

4
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,920
The beaches are wide and inviting.

5
00:00:33,170 --> 00:00:37,010
And the orange groves stretch
as far as the eye can see.

6
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,100
There are jobs aplenty. Land is cheap.

7
00:00:41,350 --> 00:00:43,600
Every workingman
can have his own house.

8
00:00:43,850 --> 00:00:48,190
And inside every house,
a happy all-American family.

9
00:00:48,650 --> 00:00:50,860
You can have all this, and who knows?

10
00:00:51,730 --> 00:00:53,650
You could even be discovered...

11
00:00:54,070 --> 00:00:57,160
become a movie star,
or at least see one.

12
00:00:57,530 --> 00:00:59,780
Life is good in Los Angeles.

13
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,830
It's paradise on earth.

14
00:01:04,620 --> 00:01:06,710
That's what they tell you, anyway.

15
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:08,750
Because they're selling an image.

16
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,590
They're selling it through
movies, radio and television.

17
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,720
In the hit show, Badge of Honor,
the L.A. cops walk on water...

18
00:01:16,970 --> 00:01:18,800
as they keep the city clean
of crooks.

19
00:01:20,390 --> 00:01:22,890
You'd think this place
was the Garden of Eden.

20
00:01:23,140 --> 00:01:24,850
But there's trouble in paradise...

21
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,980
and his name is Meyer Harris Cohen,
Mickey C to his fans.

22
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,900
Local L.A. color to the nth degree.

23
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,360
And his number one bodyguard...

24
00:01:35,610 --> 00:01:37,320
Johnny Stompanato.

25
00:01:37,570 --> 00:01:40,370
Mickey C's the head of organized crime
in these parts.

26
00:01:40,660 --> 00:01:43,950
He runs dope, rackets and prostitution.

27
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,790
He kills a dozen people a year.

28
00:01:46,410 --> 00:01:49,000
And the dapper little gent
does it in style.

29
00:01:49,710 --> 00:01:52,340
And every time his picture's
on the front page...

30
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,590
it's a black eye for the
image of Los Angeles.

31
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,510
Because how can organized crime exist...

32
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,850
in the city with the best
police force in the world?

33
00:02:02,180 --> 00:02:03,640
Something has to be done.

34
00:02:03,930 --> 00:02:06,890
But nothing too original
because this is Hollywood.

35
00:02:07,980 --> 00:02:10,230
What worked for Capone
would work for the Mickster.

36
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,150
Mr. Cohen, you're under arrest.

37
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,690
Non-payment of federal income tax.

38
00:02:15,110 --> 00:02:18,950
But all is not well. Sending Mickey up
has created a vacuum.

39
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,910
And it's only a matter of time...

40
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,790
before someone with balls
of brass tries to fill it.

41
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,620
Remember, dear readers...

42
00:02:28,580 --> 00:02:30,170
you heard it here first...

43
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,880
off the record...

44
00:02:33,540 --> 00:02:35,300
on the q.t...

45
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,340
and very...

46
00:02:37,670 --> 00:02:39,380
Hush-Hush.

47
00:02:57,820 --> 00:02:59,780
You're like Santa Claus with that list.

48
00:03:00,070 --> 00:03:02,320
Except everyone on it's been naughty.

49
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,240
Guy's been out of Q two weeks.

50
00:03:07,410 --> 00:03:08,410
Leave it for later.

51
00:03:08,660 --> 00:03:11,750
We got to pick up the booze
and get it to the station.

52
00:03:14,290 --> 00:03:16,000
Hollywood, this is 6-Adam-7.

53
00:03:16,340 --> 00:03:20,170
Have Central send a prowler
to 4216 Evergreen.

54
00:03:20,420 --> 00:03:23,220
Assault arising
from a family dispute.

55
00:03:23,470 --> 00:03:25,140
We won't be here but
they'll see him.

56
00:03:34,860 --> 00:03:35,980
Quit your whining!

57
00:03:36,230 --> 00:03:38,440
Quit whining all the time!
It makes me sick!

58
00:03:38,690 --> 00:03:39,820
Shut up!

59
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,340
Who the hell are you?

60
00:03:56,710 --> 00:03:58,710
The ghost of Christmas past.

61
00:03:59,590 --> 00:04:01,130
Dance with a man for a change?

62
00:04:01,380 --> 00:04:02,930
You a smart ass?

63
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,780
You'll be out in a year and a half.
I'll get cozy with your parole officer.

64
00:04:21,030 --> 00:04:25,070
Touch her again, I'll have you
violated on a kiddie-raper beef.

65
00:04:26,740 --> 00:04:29,370
You know what they do
to kiddie rapers in Quentin.

66
00:04:38,750 --> 00:04:40,420
You got someplace you can go?

67
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,630
Go get yourself fixed up.

68
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:49,760
Merry Christmas.

69
00:04:50,470 --> 00:04:52,930
- Merry Christmas, ma'am.
- Let's go, Bud.

70
00:04:53,100 --> 00:04:54,440
The guys are waiting.

71
00:04:59,020 --> 00:05:01,030
What do you do on Badge of Honor?

72
00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:03,900
I'm the technical advisor.

73
00:05:04,150 --> 00:05:07,490
I teach Brett Chase how to
walk and talk like a cop.

74
00:05:07,950 --> 00:05:10,280
Brett Chase doesn't walk
and talk like you.

75
00:05:10,530 --> 00:05:12,750
That's because he's the
television version.

76
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,460
America isn't ready for the real me.

77
00:05:15,710 --> 00:05:18,420
Is it true you arrested Bob Mitchum?

78
00:05:19,290 --> 00:05:23,670
The Badge of Honor guys like to pretend,
but the real thing must be a thrill.

79
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:28,140
Why don't we go someplace quiet?
I'll give you the lowdown on Mitchum.

80
00:05:28,390 --> 00:05:30,720
Big V. Jack Vincennes.

81
00:05:31,060 --> 00:05:32,890
- May I have this dance?
- Of course.

82
00:05:33,140 --> 00:05:35,230
This is Sid Hudgens,
Hush-Hush magazine.

83
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,020
- Hello, Karen.
- Hello yourself.

84
00:05:39,690 --> 00:05:40,730
What that's about?

85
00:05:40,980 --> 00:05:44,490
Her name was in a piece we did,
"Ingenue Dikes in Hollywood."

86
00:05:46,820 --> 00:05:49,410
My friend just sold reefer
to Matt Reynolds.

87
00:05:49,660 --> 00:05:52,740
He's tripping the light fantastic
with Tammy Jordan.

88
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,160
Sorry, I lost you for a second.

89
00:05:56,410 --> 00:06:00,790
Contract players, Metro. Pinch them,
I do you up a nice feature next issue.

90
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,500
- Plus your usual $50 cash.
- I need another $50.

91
00:06:03,710 --> 00:06:07,050
Two 20s for two patrolmen,
a dime for the watch commander.

92
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:08,550
It's Christmas.

93
00:06:09,840 --> 00:06:11,140
No, it's not.

94
00:06:11,390 --> 00:06:13,510
It's felony possession of marijuana.

95
00:06:15,020 --> 00:06:18,480
Actually, it's circulation 36,000
and climbing.

96
00:06:18,730 --> 00:06:21,560
There's no telling where this will go.
Radio, television...

97
00:06:22,020 --> 00:06:25,730
Once you whet the public's appetite
for the truth, the sky's the limit.

98
00:06:30,910 --> 00:06:33,870
Sgt. Ed Exley, son of the
legendary Preston Exley.

99
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:35,740
Must be a hard act to follow.

100
00:06:37,370 --> 00:06:40,540
Why not make a mark elsewhere?
Why become a cop?

101
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,790
I like to help people.

102
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,590
We heard 2 officers
were assaulted this evening.

103
00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:48,590
- What do you think of that?
- Goes with the job.

104
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,680
Luckily, they're okay.

105
00:06:50,930 --> 00:06:52,850
Aren't you young to be
watch commander?

106
00:06:53,100 --> 00:06:54,100
It's only tonight.

107
00:06:54,510 --> 00:06:57,060
The married men have Christmas Eve off.

108
00:06:57,310 --> 00:06:59,180
That's a good lead for the story.

109
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:00,940
Merry Christmas, Captain.

110
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,060
- Captain Smith.
- Drop the formalities, Bobby.

111
00:07:04,230 --> 00:07:07,900
- It's Christmas Eve, call me Dudley.
- I got the story's title.

112
00:07:08,110 --> 00:07:10,900
I'm calling it
"Silent Night with the LAPD."

113
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,610
That's grand.

114
00:07:13,620 --> 00:07:16,540
Remember that's " Smith"
with an " S."

115
00:07:19,410 --> 00:07:21,370
Thank you, Merry Christmas.

116
00:07:21,870 --> 00:07:22,920
Hold on, lads.

117
00:07:26,210 --> 00:07:27,550
Merry Christmas.

118
00:07:30,340 --> 00:07:33,050
I saw the results
on the lieutenant's exam.

119
00:07:33,300 --> 00:07:35,010
First out of 23.

120
00:07:35,430 --> 00:07:39,060
What'll it be, then? Patrol Division?
Internal Affairs? What?

121
00:07:39,310 --> 00:07:40,930
Detective Bureau.

122
00:07:46,980 --> 00:07:48,570
You're a political animal.

123
00:07:48,820 --> 00:07:51,860
You have the eye for human weakness,
but not the stomach.

124
00:07:54,110 --> 00:07:55,240
You're wrong, sir.

125
00:07:55,490 --> 00:07:59,160
Would you be willing to plant evidence
on a suspect you knew to be guilty...

126
00:07:59,410 --> 00:08:01,250
to insure an indictment?

127
00:08:01,500 --> 00:08:03,540
- We've been over this.
- Yes or no?

128
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,920
Would you beat a confession
out of a suspect you knew to be guilty?

129
00:08:09,250 --> 00:08:12,090
Would you shoot a hardened
criminal in the back...

130
00:08:12,340 --> 00:08:15,470
in order to offset the chance
that some lawyer...

131
00:08:16,300 --> 00:08:17,760
Then for the love of God...

132
00:08:18,010 --> 00:08:19,720
don't be a detective.

133
00:08:19,970 --> 00:08:22,600
Stick to assignments where you don't
have to make those choices.

134
00:08:23,190 --> 00:08:25,190
Dudley, I know you mean well...

135
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,150
but I don't need to do it
the way you did... or my father.

136
00:08:30,530 --> 00:08:32,490
At least get rid of the glasses.

137
00:08:32,740 --> 00:08:35,450
I can't think of a man
in the Bureau who wears them.

138
00:08:44,620 --> 00:08:46,710
If I ever get held up,
you better be here.

139
00:08:52,670 --> 00:08:53,840
Hi, Nick.

140
00:08:54,090 --> 00:08:55,510
I need a delivery.

141
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,350
A case each of gin, rum, Scotch.

142
00:08:58,550 --> 00:09:01,060
Sounds like a hell of a party.
Be right with you.

143
00:09:20,030 --> 00:09:21,120
Merry Christmas.

144
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,910
Merry Christmas, Officer.

145
00:09:27,670 --> 00:09:28,710
That obvious?

146
00:09:29,540 --> 00:09:31,800
It's practically stamped
on your forehead.

147
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:33,920
There you go.

148
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,870
See what he wants, Buzz.

149
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,920
Get lost, why don't you?

150
00:10:23,260 --> 00:10:25,390
Down!
Get your fucking head down.

151
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,430
I got a license for that.

152
00:10:31,770 --> 00:10:34,480
Cut me some slack.
I used to be a cop.

153
00:10:34,730 --> 00:10:36,740
" Leland Meeks"?
Never heard of you.

154
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,530
They call me Buzz.

155
00:10:39,570 --> 00:10:42,950
I don't give a rat's ass.
Keep your head down.

156
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:44,990
And stay there... Buzz.

157
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,290
You okay?

158
00:10:49,750 --> 00:10:50,750
She's fine.

159
00:10:51,170 --> 00:10:52,500
I'm not asking you.

160
00:10:54,550 --> 00:10:55,590
Who hit you?

161
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,800
It's not what you think.

162
00:11:01,260 --> 00:11:02,260
What, then?

163
00:11:02,510 --> 00:11:04,970
You got the wrong idea.
I'm fine.

164
00:11:06,470 --> 00:11:08,640
But it's nice to know you care.

165
00:11:17,740 --> 00:11:18,740
Drive safely.

166
00:11:20,650 --> 00:11:21,740
What's going on?

167
00:11:25,830 --> 00:11:26,830
You know him?

168
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,000
Yeah, I've seen him around.

169
00:11:30,870 --> 00:11:32,420
He used to be a cop.

170
00:11:39,210 --> 00:11:42,130
They're sitting in the dark,
goofing on the Christmas tree.

171
00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:44,350
Put your camera right there.

172
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,890
When I walk out, get the
movie premiere in the background.

173
00:11:49,140 --> 00:11:52,020
I like it, I like it.
"The Movie Premiere Pot Bust."

174
00:11:52,270 --> 00:11:55,230
I don't want those goddamn
floodlights of yours in my eyes.

175
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,070
Consider it done.
You hear that, Chip?

176
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,570
Come on. Get down.

177
00:12:04,490 --> 00:12:05,490
Go! Pop them!

178
00:12:09,910 --> 00:12:11,120
Freeze! Police!

179
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:13,210
Jesus Christ!

180
00:12:13,460 --> 00:12:15,790
Come on.
Come on, let's go.

181
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,170
My family's coming...

182
00:12:17,420 --> 00:12:20,670
- It'll be a nice Christmas gift.
- Hi, Tammy. Hi, Matt.

183
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:21,920
Over here.

184
00:12:22,170 --> 00:12:24,130
- Just turn.
- Hold it. Got it!

185
00:12:25,180 --> 00:12:29,260
- The Movie Premiere Pot Bust!
- Take them. I'll get the evidence.

186
00:12:41,610 --> 00:12:44,070
" It's Christmas Eve
in the City of Angels.

187
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,450
And while decent citizens sleep
the sleep of the righteous...

188
00:12:47,700 --> 00:12:49,370
hopheads prowl for marijuana...

189
00:12:50,370 --> 00:12:53,660
not knowing that a man
is coming to stop them:

190
00:12:54,830 --> 00:12:57,420
Celebrity crime-stopper, Jack Vincennes.

191
00:12:57,790 --> 00:13:01,920
Scourge of grasshoppers
and dope fiends everywhere."

192
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:03,720
You like it?

193
00:13:06,390 --> 00:13:07,590
Yeah, subtle.

194
00:13:09,100 --> 00:13:10,100
What took you?

195
00:13:10,310 --> 00:13:13,310
My partner stopped
to help a damsel in distress.

196
00:13:13,560 --> 00:13:15,560
His priorities are all screwed up.

197
00:13:16,230 --> 00:13:18,110
Up to your old tricks again?

198
00:13:19,730 --> 00:13:23,530
Hollywood Jack, what brings you
to our humble station house?

199
00:13:23,780 --> 00:13:25,400
What are you doing here?

200
00:13:25,700 --> 00:13:27,610
You know, keeping the streets safe.

201
00:13:27,870 --> 00:13:30,280
Get these two dressed
and book them.

202
00:13:30,580 --> 00:13:33,160
- The party's upstairs.
- I'll be right up.

203
00:13:39,500 --> 00:13:40,500
What's that for?

204
00:13:40,630 --> 00:13:43,090
Aren't you watch commander tonight?

205
00:13:43,340 --> 00:13:44,340
Yeah. So?

206
00:13:44,470 --> 00:13:46,090
It's from Hush-Hush magazine.

207
00:13:46,340 --> 00:13:48,010
Buy yourself some loafers.

208
00:13:48,260 --> 00:13:50,760
No thanks, Jack.
You keep your payoff.

209
00:13:51,470 --> 00:13:52,640
I'm not interested.

210
00:14:00,810 --> 00:14:02,190
What's this?

211
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:03,610
Six spics.

212
00:14:03,900 --> 00:14:07,240
The Mexicans who assaulted
Brown and Helenowski.

213
00:14:07,490 --> 00:14:10,320
I hear Helenowski bled 6 pints,
Brown's in a coma.

214
00:14:10,570 --> 00:14:12,280
They've got bruises
and muscle pulls.

215
00:14:12,530 --> 00:14:13,660
It's not what I heard.

216
00:14:13,910 --> 00:14:15,160
Lock them up.

217
00:14:15,410 --> 00:14:20,250
Stens, you guys hear what those taco
benders did to Helenowski and Brown?

218
00:14:21,460 --> 00:14:25,960
Helenowski lost an eye, and they're
reading Brown his last rites.

219
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:31,010
Should make for a very
merry Christmas for them.

220
00:14:31,260 --> 00:14:32,260
Hey, guys.

221
00:14:32,470 --> 00:14:33,470
Guys.

222
00:14:33,850 --> 00:14:35,430
They brought the Mexicans in.

223
00:14:36,890 --> 00:14:38,140
They're downstairs.

224
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,320
- Let's do it.
- Come on. Let's get them.

225
00:14:46,190 --> 00:14:47,900
The party's upstairs.

226
00:14:49,700 --> 00:14:51,280
This doesn't concern you.

227
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:53,450
Come on, guys.

228
00:14:53,700 --> 00:14:54,830
You got work?

229
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,200
Go back.

230
00:14:57,540 --> 00:15:00,710
- Come on, it's Christmas, help me out.
- Move it!

231
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,170
I just got a few more questions.

232
00:15:03,500 --> 00:15:04,960
You don't have to be here.

233
00:15:05,590 --> 00:15:06,590
Go!

234
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,340
You better get your partner
before he kills somebody.

235
00:15:15,390 --> 00:15:17,470
Teach him a lesson!
Get him, Stens!

236
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,730
This is for ours, Poncho.

237
00:15:23,650 --> 00:15:24,650
Let me through!

238
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:27,780
He didn't do nothing!

239
00:15:28,030 --> 00:15:29,820
What are you looking at?

240
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,950
- Tell that Mexican to shut up!
- Move!

241
00:15:34,330 --> 00:15:35,370
You're sick!

242
00:15:37,660 --> 00:15:38,660
Stens!

243
00:15:41,330 --> 00:15:43,210
- Come on!
- Don't break it up!

244
00:15:43,750 --> 00:15:45,130
Get back! Get back!

245
00:15:45,630 --> 00:15:47,050
Fuck your mother!

246
00:15:47,300 --> 00:15:48,300
Fuck you!

247
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,300
Stop! That's an order!

248
00:16:02,350 --> 00:16:03,850
You're all in my report!

249
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,290
" Bloody Christmas."

250
00:16:25,790 --> 00:16:27,630
The press love to label.

251
00:16:29,130 --> 00:16:31,920
This is bigger than the police board.

252
00:16:32,170 --> 00:16:36,350
The grand jury's convening.
Indictments may be handed down.

253
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:37,970
Will you testify?

254
00:16:38,310 --> 00:16:39,310
No, sir.

255
00:16:42,230 --> 00:16:43,440
District Attorney Loew?

256
00:16:44,690 --> 00:16:48,150
You and Officer Stensland
brought the liquor to the station.

257
00:16:48,650 --> 00:16:50,280
Stensland was already drunk.

258
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:55,990
Appearing as a witness against him
could offset the damage to yourself.

259
00:16:56,950 --> 00:16:59,370
I won't testify against him
or anyone else.

260
00:16:59,910 --> 00:17:02,000
This man is a disgrace.

261
00:17:02,290 --> 00:17:05,960
Your badge and gun, officer.
You're suspended from duty.

262
00:17:07,460 --> 00:17:08,500
Dismissed.

263
00:17:26,730 --> 00:17:30,770
We need police witnesses to offset
the damage done to the Department.

264
00:17:31,070 --> 00:17:34,190
Justice has to be served.
Of course I'll testify.

265
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,330
I'm glad you feel that way.
Most of the men don't.

266
00:17:40,580 --> 00:17:43,200
They think silence and integrity
are the same.

267
00:17:43,620 --> 00:17:46,250
Not exactly the image of...

268
00:17:46,830 --> 00:17:48,630
the new LAPD we're creating.

269
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,800
Welcome to Los Angeles,
the city of the future.

270
00:17:52,050 --> 00:17:54,670
- May I make a suggestion?
- By all means.

271
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:59,140
The public will expect the Department
to sweep this under the carpet.

272
00:17:59,970 --> 00:18:01,100
Don't.

273
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,480
Shift the guilt to men with
secure pensions.

274
00:18:04,730 --> 00:18:06,350
Force them to retire.

275
00:18:07,810 --> 00:18:09,730
But somebody has to swing.

276
00:18:09,980 --> 00:18:15,030
So indict, try and convict
Richard Stensland and Bud White.

277
00:18:15,570 --> 00:18:17,240
Secure them jail time.

278
00:18:17,530 --> 00:18:19,070
The message will be clear.

279
00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:24,620
The new LAPD will not tolerate officers
who think they're above the law.

280
00:18:25,660 --> 00:18:28,580
Dick Stensland is an embarrassment
as a policeman.

281
00:18:28,830 --> 00:18:32,840
He's had rotten fitness reports
from every C.O. he's ever served under.

282
00:18:33,090 --> 00:18:35,090
But White is a valuable officer.

283
00:18:35,380 --> 00:18:36,920
White's a mindless thug.

284
00:18:39,090 --> 00:18:43,100
He's just a man who can say " yes" to the
questions I asked you the other day.

285
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,640
The Department and the public
need role models.

286
00:18:46,890 --> 00:18:49,940
Clean-cut, forthright men
the public can admire.

287
00:18:51,610 --> 00:18:52,610
Sergeant...

288
00:18:53,070 --> 00:18:54,690
I'll promote you...

289
00:18:54,980 --> 00:18:56,440
to Lieutenant.

290
00:18:56,690 --> 00:18:59,740
- Effective immediately.
- Detective Lieutenant.

291
00:19:01,870 --> 00:19:03,580
Ed, you're 30.

292
00:19:03,830 --> 00:19:07,370
Your father didn't make lieutenant
until he was 33.

293
00:19:07,660 --> 00:19:11,540
I know. I also know when he made
lieutenant, it was as a detective.

294
00:19:11,830 --> 00:19:14,130
Before we start polishing our laurels...

295
00:19:14,380 --> 00:19:16,960
it'd look better if we had
a corroborative witness.

296
00:19:17,460 --> 00:19:20,930
That won't be easy to come by.
The men hate a stool pigeon.

297
00:19:21,180 --> 00:19:22,720
Jack Vincennes.

298
00:19:23,180 --> 00:19:25,310
He hit one of the Mexicans.

299
00:19:25,970 --> 00:19:29,770
A veteran like Vincennes might
admit his own culpability...

300
00:19:30,230 --> 00:19:32,480
but not a fellow officer's.

301
00:19:33,150 --> 00:19:35,980
Jack's the technical advisor
on Badge of Honor.

302
00:19:36,230 --> 00:19:37,740
He lives for it.

303
00:19:37,990 --> 00:19:39,650
That's how to get to him.

304
00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:45,330
I'd like you to observe, Ed.

305
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,540
Call Sergeant Vincennes.

306
00:19:51,370 --> 00:19:52,750
Bright kid.

307
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:54,960
You may well reap the benefit...

308
00:19:55,460 --> 00:19:58,050
but are you prepared to be despised?

309
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,170
Yes, sir, I am.

310
00:20:02,260 --> 00:20:03,260
So be it.

311
00:20:09,430 --> 00:20:11,770
Sergeant, we'll get right to it.

312
00:20:12,310 --> 00:20:16,400
Nine civilian witnesses identified
you as hitting Ezekiel Garcia.

313
00:20:16,650 --> 00:20:22,030
But we have a witness who will name
names and testify that you hit back...

314
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:23,360
after being hit.

315
00:20:23,820 --> 00:20:25,950
You'll testify against 3 officers...

316
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,910
who've already earned their pension,
and plead ignorance about the rest.

317
00:20:31,370 --> 00:20:33,290
No thanks. I'm not a snitch.

318
00:20:33,540 --> 00:20:37,000
I'll guarantee a slap on the wrist,
a brief suspension...

319
00:20:37,250 --> 00:20:40,510
followed by a temporary transfer
from Narcotics to Vice.

320
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,680
Transfer out of Vice,
you're back on the show.

321
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:49,640
The show?

322
00:20:50,220 --> 00:20:51,850
Badge of Honor.

323
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,310
We need to tone down
your profile for a bit.

324
00:20:58,770 --> 00:21:02,990
I doubt you've ever taken
a stupid breath. Don't start now.

325
00:21:03,570 --> 00:21:04,820
Okay, I'll do it.

326
00:21:08,780 --> 00:21:10,160
The grand jury hears...

327
00:21:10,410 --> 00:21:12,540
your testimony tomorrow.
Dismissed.

328
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,840
And so it goes...

329
00:21:26,300 --> 00:21:28,100
Detective Lieutenant.

330
00:21:29,850 --> 00:21:32,350
Ace them at the
grand jury tomorrow.

331
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,350
Wear a smart-looking suit
and ace them.

332
00:21:36,270 --> 00:21:37,400
And Ed...

333
00:21:37,650 --> 00:21:39,270
Iose the glasses.

334
00:21:49,620 --> 00:21:52,410
So you're the stellar witness.

335
00:21:52,660 --> 00:21:56,210
I should have known.
What's the Chief throwing you?

336
00:21:56,580 --> 00:21:57,580
Throwing me?

337
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,670
What's the payoff?

338
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,300
You're the payoff expert.
I'm just doing my duty.

339
00:22:03,550 --> 00:22:07,090
Come on. You're playing an
angle here, college boy...

340
00:22:07,340 --> 00:22:10,470
so you don't have to hobnob
with the rank and file...

341
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,390
who'll hate you for snitching.

342
00:22:12,810 --> 00:22:15,390
If they make you detective, watch out.

343
00:22:15,890 --> 00:22:20,060
Some Bureau guys'll burn in this and
you'll be working with their friends.

344
00:22:20,310 --> 00:22:21,310
What about you?

345
00:22:22,020 --> 00:22:26,150
I'm snitching 3 old-timers who'll be
fishing in Oregon next week.

346
00:22:26,490 --> 00:22:28,410
Next to you, I'm clean...

347
00:22:28,660 --> 00:22:29,820
and smart.

348
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,660
Edmund J. Exley to chambers.

349
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,040
And remember...

350
00:22:36,120 --> 00:22:39,790
Bud White will fuck you for this
if it takes the rest of his life.

351
00:22:43,590 --> 00:22:45,170
Captain, what do you want?

352
00:22:46,340 --> 00:22:47,550
Call me Dudley.

353
00:22:48,090 --> 00:22:49,800
Dudley...

354
00:22:50,340 --> 00:22:51,340
what do you want?

355
00:22:52,510 --> 00:22:56,060
Look, lad, I admire
your refusal to testify...

356
00:22:56,430 --> 00:22:58,440
and your loyalty to your partner.

357
00:22:58,980 --> 00:23:00,650
I admire you as a policeman...

358
00:23:00,900 --> 00:23:05,400
and your adherence to violence
as a necessary adjunct to the job.

359
00:23:05,650 --> 00:23:08,950
And I'm impressed with your
punishment of women-beaters.

360
00:23:10,030 --> 00:23:11,160
Do you hate them?

361
00:23:13,830 --> 00:23:14,910
What do you want?

362
00:23:19,460 --> 00:23:20,920
They're yours.

363
00:23:22,210 --> 00:23:23,210
Take them.

364
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,260
There's no bill on me?

365
00:23:28,510 --> 00:23:30,970
- 4 witnesses recanted their testimony.
- Why?

366
00:23:31,220 --> 00:23:32,550
They had a change of heart.

367
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:33,800
And Stensland?

368
00:23:34,050 --> 00:23:35,640
Your partner's through.

369
00:23:35,890 --> 00:23:37,980
Scapegoat on the Chief's orders.

370
00:23:38,270 --> 00:23:40,140
A year from his pension.

371
00:23:43,310 --> 00:23:46,480
- Exley?
- Exley got what he wanted.

372
00:23:46,730 --> 00:23:50,110
As a politician he exceeds even myself.

373
00:23:50,900 --> 00:23:53,740
The Department needs
smart men like Exley...

374
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:55,660
and direct men...

375
00:23:56,370 --> 00:23:57,490
like you.

376
00:23:58,910 --> 00:24:02,920
Look lad, I need you for
an assignment the Chief's given me.

377
00:24:03,250 --> 00:24:05,590
A duty few men are fit for...

378
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,340
but you were born for.

379
00:24:08,130 --> 00:24:10,720
You'd be working
out of Homicide at City Hall.

380
00:24:10,970 --> 00:24:12,130
Homicide?

381
00:24:13,140 --> 00:24:14,600
Working cases?

382
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,390
Your talents lie elsewhere, Wendell.

383
00:24:18,930 --> 00:24:20,520
It's a muscle job.

384
00:24:21,770 --> 00:24:25,940
You'll do as I say and ask no questions.
Do you follow my drift?

385
00:24:27,190 --> 00:24:28,820
In Technicolor, sir.

386
00:24:31,530 --> 00:24:34,570
"Meet Tony Brancato
and Anthony Trombino...

387
00:24:34,820 --> 00:24:38,290
two rising lieutenants
in the Mickey Cohen rackets.

388
00:24:38,540 --> 00:24:41,410
With the dapper little gent in prison...

389
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,920
who knows how far they'll go?
The sky's the limit.

390
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:52,760
Oh, well. "

391
00:25:05,730 --> 00:25:10,190
"Meet Deuce Perkins,
Mickey Cohen 's narcotics lieutenant.

392
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:11,820
Could he be behind the hits?

393
00:25:12,610 --> 00:25:15,360
Is he consolidating
organized crime power?

394
00:25:21,500 --> 00:25:23,160
I suppose not.

395
00:25:28,670 --> 00:25:30,210
One thing's for sure:

396
00:25:30,460 --> 00:25:33,670
2-man triggers are punching the tickets
on the Mickster's muscle. "

397
00:25:43,060 --> 00:25:46,900
"Meanwhile, rumor has it the LAPD...

398
00:25:47,150 --> 00:25:51,980
has set up a not-so-Welcome Wagon
to dishearten the criminal element...

399
00:25:52,230 --> 00:25:55,490
from filling the void left by
Mickey's absence.

400
00:25:55,740 --> 00:25:58,660
When I know more, dear readers,
so will you.

401
00:25:58,910 --> 00:26:01,620
Off the record, on the q. t...

402
00:26:01,950 --> 00:26:03,500
and very...

403
00:26:03,750 --> 00:26:05,540
Hush-Hush. "

404
00:26:06,750 --> 00:26:10,710
With Mickey Cohen in prison,
Los Angeles is organized-crime-free.

405
00:26:11,050 --> 00:26:12,760
The Chief wants to keep it that way.

406
00:26:14,090 --> 00:26:17,090
In Cleveland, you're an
organized crime associate...

407
00:26:17,340 --> 00:26:21,140
in desperate need of re-education
in the ways of polite society.

408
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,350
I hear things.

409
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,520
Like those 2-men shooter teams.

410
00:26:27,770 --> 00:26:29,810
They're 86ing Cohen's lieutenants.

411
00:26:30,060 --> 00:26:31,570
What do you want?

412
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,190
We want you to go home.

413
00:26:38,820 --> 00:26:40,490
Picture-book smut, men.

414
00:26:40,740 --> 00:26:44,410
There's been a bunch of this
found at crime scenes lately.

415
00:26:44,660 --> 00:26:47,620
Quality ranges from piss-poor...

416
00:26:48,870 --> 00:26:49,870
to very well done.

417
00:26:50,710 --> 00:26:52,710
Look who's back from suspension.

418
00:26:53,500 --> 00:26:55,510
We're honored, Sergeant Jack.

419
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,130
Look at that.
The Great Jerk-Off Case of 1953.

420
00:26:59,510 --> 00:27:01,680
Is there someplace you'd rather be?

421
00:27:02,300 --> 00:27:05,430
Yeah, working Narcotics,
looking for Cohen's missing H.

422
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,770
Yeah, finding 25 pounds of heroin
would get you plenty of ink.

423
00:27:10,020 --> 00:27:13,110
You should've thought of that
before Bloody Christmas.

424
00:27:14,190 --> 00:27:17,900
Make a major case. It's the only way
you'll get out of here.

425
00:27:19,530 --> 00:27:20,910
Dismissed, gentlemen.

426
00:27:29,120 --> 00:27:31,080
Go get the facts, Jack.

427
00:27:31,330 --> 00:27:33,090
Just the facts.

428
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,010
Whatever you desire.

429
00:27:42,390 --> 00:27:45,010
Hi. I'd like to get a delivery
to Beverly Hills.

430
00:27:45,390 --> 00:27:46,390
I don 't know you.

431
00:27:47,020 --> 00:27:51,350
A friend just gave me this number
and I wanted to find out if there was...

432
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,360
Would you grab a reverse directory
and shag a name and address for me?

433
00:27:56,730 --> 00:27:58,530
Crestview-2239.

434
00:28:05,910 --> 00:28:08,120
Hush-Hush, off the record, on the q. t.

435
00:28:08,700 --> 00:28:10,210
Sid, it's Vincennes.

436
00:28:10,580 --> 00:28:13,830
Jackie, you back on narco?
I need some good copy.

437
00:28:14,210 --> 00:28:16,090
I have something going with Vice.

438
00:28:16,460 --> 00:28:17,880
Something juicy for the Sidster?

439
00:28:18,130 --> 00:28:20,380
Tracking porn.
Arty, high-class stuff.

440
00:28:20,670 --> 00:28:23,640
Know about Fleur-de-Lis?
Slogan's " Whatever you desire."

441
00:28:24,010 --> 00:28:25,510
No, I've heard bupkes.

442
00:28:25,890 --> 00:28:29,350
Get me some narco skinny.
I want to do an all-hophead issue.

443
00:28:29,730 --> 00:28:33,480
Shvartze jazz musicians and movie stars.
You like it?

444
00:28:33,770 --> 00:28:35,150
I'll talk to you later.

445
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,900
- What do you got?
- The number's not assigned.

446
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:39,280
Thanks, Ginger.

447
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:42,400
A bootleg.

448
00:28:51,660 --> 00:28:52,670
Take it easy.

449
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:54,380
Tough break, Stens.

450
00:28:54,750 --> 00:28:56,710
We're going to miss you.

451
00:28:57,090 --> 00:28:58,630
Raw deal, Stensland.

452
00:29:02,170 --> 00:29:03,800
Here comes the snitch.

453
00:29:15,060 --> 00:29:16,610
Sorry about that, Lieutenant.

454
00:29:33,660 --> 00:29:35,420
Stay out of trouble, Bud.

455
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,170
I got some time.
I'll buy you a drink.

456
00:29:40,460 --> 00:29:42,460
Rain check. I got a hot date.

457
00:29:44,510 --> 00:29:46,680
Who is she and
what did you arrest her for?

458
00:29:47,220 --> 00:29:48,510
It's confidential.

459
00:29:48,890 --> 00:29:53,640
Like that magazine that
Vincennes scams for. Hush-Hush.

460
00:29:54,940 --> 00:29:56,650
I'll see you later in the week.

461
00:29:57,350 --> 00:29:59,150
We'll do the town, on me.

462
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,400
Yeah. I'll bring
my wallet just in case.

463
00:30:06,860 --> 00:30:08,950
- See you tomorrow.
- Hang on a minute.

464
00:30:09,870 --> 00:30:11,240
I'll walk down with you.

465
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,500
Punk kid. Who is he
trying to impress?

466
00:30:23,550 --> 00:30:24,670
Yeah, I wonder.

467
00:30:25,050 --> 00:30:27,220
Got himself a real career going.

468
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,850
Sergeant Williams, pick up, please.

469
00:30:35,180 --> 00:30:36,730
Sergeant Williams?

470
00:30:40,060 --> 00:30:42,780
Is there anybody up there in Homicide?

471
00:30:43,900 --> 00:30:45,360
Anybody there?

472
00:30:47,740 --> 00:30:48,740
Lieutenant Exley.

473
00:30:48,990 --> 00:30:50,990
You've got a homicide downtown.

474
00:30:51,370 --> 00:30:54,120
- The Nite Owl Coffee Shop.
- I got it.

475
00:30:54,450 --> 00:30:55,500
It's mine.

476
00:31:07,220 --> 00:31:09,840
At least one person's dead.
I stopped for coffee...

477
00:31:10,220 --> 00:31:12,930
No one comes through
the front door. Understand?

478
00:32:49,230 --> 00:32:53,070
I want barricades both ends
of the street. Make sure...

479
00:32:53,530 --> 00:32:55,450
I took the call. It's my case.

480
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,200
You don't want it and you can't have it.

481
00:32:58,580 --> 00:32:59,580
I took the call.

482
00:32:59,830 --> 00:33:00,830
It's mine.

483
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,790
I'll make you my second-in-command.

484
00:33:04,170 --> 00:33:05,790
Captain, over here, please.

485
00:33:10,130 --> 00:33:14,470
The cook drew a gun and set it off.
The rest died in the men's room.

486
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:24,020
We got a total of 15 spent
12-gauge Remington shotgun shells.

487
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,400
I'm betting 3 men, 5-shot capacity
pumps, all of them emptying once.

488
00:33:28,770 --> 00:33:31,610
Excuse me, we got an I.D.
on one of the victims.

489
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:33,530
It's Dick Stensland.

490
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,700
At first, I thought
she was Rita Hayworth.

491
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:40,410
Yeah, me too.

492
00:33:50,210 --> 00:33:52,210
Hell of a way to avoid prison.

493
00:34:03,020 --> 00:34:04,230
What happened?

494
00:34:04,850 --> 00:34:07,270
Appears 3 men held up a coffee shop.

495
00:34:07,650 --> 00:34:10,400
The guy at the register pulled a .38,
so they killed him.

496
00:34:10,980 --> 00:34:12,610
Then they killed everyone else.

497
00:34:15,700 --> 00:34:18,570
Lieutenant, we're ready
with that Nite Owl I.D.

498
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,040
Is this your daughter?

499
00:34:26,870 --> 00:34:28,460
I don't know.

500
00:34:29,380 --> 00:34:31,880
We know this is difficult.
Take your time.

501
00:34:33,710 --> 00:34:35,840
It seems like my Susan.

502
00:34:36,090 --> 00:34:38,970
But my Susan was a blonde,
not a redhead.

503
00:34:39,350 --> 00:34:41,100
When was the last time you saw her?

504
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,560
Just before Christmas.

505
00:34:44,220 --> 00:34:47,100
We'd fought.
I didn't like her boyfriend.

506
00:34:47,730 --> 00:34:48,850
Mrs. Lefferts...

507
00:34:49,230 --> 00:34:51,570
does your daughter have
any distinguishing marks?

508
00:34:52,780 --> 00:34:55,570
You got the wrong idea, mister.
I'm fine.

509
00:34:56,570 --> 00:34:59,570
She has a birthmark on her hip.

510
00:35:05,540 --> 00:35:06,960
It's her.

511
00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:09,790
My baby.

512
00:35:13,130 --> 00:35:14,800
I'm sorry, Mrs. Lefferts.

513
00:35:16,090 --> 00:35:18,380
Who's in charge of this investigation?

514
00:35:18,930 --> 00:35:20,340
Captain Smith and myself. Why?

515
00:35:23,100 --> 00:35:24,350
"The Nite Owl Massacre. "

516
00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:26,350
Hyperbole aside...

517
00:35:26,730 --> 00:35:30,230
this is a heinous crime
that requires swift resolution.

518
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:32,360
Six victims.

519
00:35:32,610 --> 00:35:35,190
One of them, one of our own.
Dick Stensland.

520
00:35:35,610 --> 00:35:39,660
He was a Nite Owl regular,
in the wrong place at the wrong time.

521
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:41,990
Robbery is the likely motive.

522
00:35:42,240 --> 00:35:46,750
We have rubber glove smears
on the register and forensics...

523
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,750
tend toward a trio of shooters.
We do have one hot lead.

524
00:35:51,290 --> 00:35:53,090
Three Negro juveniles...

525
00:35:53,460 --> 00:35:56,920
were seen discharging shotguns
last night in Griffith Park.

526
00:35:57,300 --> 00:36:01,220
A park ranger I.D.'d them as driving
a 1948-1950 Mercury coupe...

527
00:36:01,590 --> 00:36:02,760
maroon in color.

528
00:36:03,430 --> 00:36:06,930
An hour ago a canvassing crew
turned up a news vendor...

529
00:36:07,270 --> 00:36:10,850
who saw a maroon Merc coupe
parked by the Nite Owl at 1 a.m.

530
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,110
DMV has come up with
a registration list of Merc coupes.

531
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,860
48 two-man teams will shake
three names apiece.

532
00:36:21,660 --> 00:36:24,160
Interrogations will be led by
Lt. Edmund Exley.

533
00:36:27,750 --> 00:36:29,040
Enough on that!

534
00:36:32,370 --> 00:36:35,880
Gentlemen, just go out and get them.
Use all necessary force.

535
00:36:37,210 --> 00:36:39,340
The people of Los Angeles demand it.

536
00:36:39,970 --> 00:36:41,180
Dismissed.

537
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,560
Why not just put a bounty on them?

538
00:36:53,980 --> 00:36:57,020
- Ready to roll?
- You take them. I got something to do.

539
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,150
What if one of these names...?

540
00:36:59,530 --> 00:37:00,900
Get somebody else.

541
00:37:01,860 --> 00:37:03,950
I got our assignments, Big V.

542
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,200
If we go by this list,
we'll never make this collar.

543
00:37:07,580 --> 00:37:11,580
I got a guy who knows what happens
south of Jefferson. He'll put us at 50-50.

544
00:37:12,500 --> 00:37:16,540
What are you doing? That's the same
thing that got you in trouble before.

545
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,210
I'll take those odds.

546
00:37:22,420 --> 00:37:23,760
We got it from here.

547
00:37:26,010 --> 00:37:28,470
You should bring along
a photographer.

548
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,900
I need an address on a customer
of yours. Her name is Lynn.

549
00:37:37,270 --> 00:37:38,980
- That's all I got to go on?
- Yeah.

550
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,780
You already know who I mean,
so cough it up.

551
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,320
There's a billing address
and a delivery address.

552
00:38:12,100 --> 00:38:13,770
Are you Pierce Patchett?

553
00:38:14,980 --> 00:38:16,150
I am.

554
00:38:18,270 --> 00:38:22,280
Are you soliciting for police charities?
Last time you called my office.

555
00:38:22,820 --> 00:38:25,610
Go on down to the driveway.
We'll talk there.

556
00:38:36,750 --> 00:38:38,170
What can I do for you?

557
00:38:39,290 --> 00:38:42,840
- Where were you last night?
- I was here hosting a party.

558
00:38:44,630 --> 00:38:46,220
Tell me about Dick Stensland.

559
00:38:46,590 --> 00:38:48,640
I don't know him, Mr....?

560
00:38:49,090 --> 00:38:50,350
Officer White.

561
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:52,680
You know Sue Lefferts?

562
00:38:53,140 --> 00:38:55,350
You know I do.
You saw me with her.

563
00:38:57,140 --> 00:38:58,690
How did you find me?

564
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,480
Nick's Liquor. This is where
Lynn Bracken's booze bills go.

565
00:39:03,860 --> 00:39:05,320
Of course.

566
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,370
Sue Lefferts died at the Nite Owl.

567
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:12,660
I'm investigating.

568
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,370
Everything all right?

569
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,710
Fine, Phillip, thank you.

570
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,420
What happened to the other guy?
Buzz.

571
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,010
Buzz Meeks no longer works for me.

572
00:39:28,380 --> 00:39:30,780
Lefferts looked beat-up Christmas Eve
but didn't act it. Why?

573
00:39:31,100 --> 00:39:35,180
I think she'd been hit in the face
with a tennis racket. She is... was...

574
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:36,770
a big doubles fan.

575
00:39:37,690 --> 00:39:40,560
You're a known associate of a woman
killed in a mass murder.

576
00:39:42,270 --> 00:39:45,730
- Want to go downtown to discuss it?
- Is this official?

577
00:39:46,650 --> 00:39:51,070
Somehow I have the feeling
this is more personal with you.

578
00:39:54,490 --> 00:39:55,870
All right, then...

579
00:39:56,870 --> 00:40:01,130
are you concerned about criminal
matters peripheral to the murders?

580
00:40:01,500 --> 00:40:04,750
- Not at the moment.
- So you're not obligated to report them.

581
00:40:07,210 --> 00:40:09,300
Why were Lefferts' eyes black?

582
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,390
I needed a Rita Hayworth
to fill out my little studio.

583
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:13,760
What little studio?

584
00:40:14,100 --> 00:40:17,600
Well, there's Gardner, Russell,
Monroe, Turner...

585
00:40:17,980 --> 00:40:20,100
Lynn Bracken is my Veronica Lake.

586
00:40:20,770 --> 00:40:23,060
I use girls that look like movie stars.

587
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,940
Sometimes I employ a plastic surgeon.

588
00:40:26,570 --> 00:40:28,940
When the work was done,
that's when you saw us.

589
00:40:29,860 --> 00:40:31,570
It's why her mom couldn't I.D. her.

590
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:34,620
Jesus fucking Christ.

591
00:40:34,870 --> 00:40:36,790
No, Pierce Morehouse Patchett.

592
00:40:39,250 --> 00:40:42,670
I sense you're on your best behavior,
but that's all I'm saying.

593
00:40:43,210 --> 00:40:45,130
If you persist,
we'll meet with my attorney.

594
00:40:46,380 --> 00:40:48,420
Would you like Lynn Bracken's address?

595
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:50,300
I got her address.

596
00:40:51,720 --> 00:40:53,640
Find Susan's killer, Mr. White.

597
00:40:54,300 --> 00:40:56,310
I'll give you a handsome reward.

598
00:41:01,730 --> 00:41:02,730
Whatever you desire!

599
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:12,820
I know you're not asleep.

600
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,120
What do you want?

601
00:41:17,490 --> 00:41:18,990
My 5 bucks.

602
00:41:19,370 --> 00:41:21,580
It was the only one I had.

603
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:23,000
Right now?

604
00:41:23,620 --> 00:41:25,960
Hey, dollface,
tell him to leave us alone.

605
00:41:26,340 --> 00:41:28,500
I understand.
Okay, fine.

606
00:41:30,130 --> 00:41:31,170
Oh, baby...

607
00:41:32,630 --> 00:41:33,800
bad news.

608
00:41:34,180 --> 00:41:35,180
You have to go.

609
00:41:35,510 --> 00:41:36,510
Go?

610
00:41:37,010 --> 00:41:40,310
Something very important has come up
and you have to go.

611
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,390
I'll make it up to you.

612
00:41:42,770 --> 00:41:45,190
I will, I promise.
Excuse me.

613
00:41:47,820 --> 00:41:49,190
Is it the cops?

614
00:41:53,860 --> 00:41:54,990
Miss Bracken...

615
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:56,360
I'm Officer White.

616
00:41:56,530 --> 00:41:58,990
I've been expecting you,
just not this soon.

617
00:41:59,370 --> 00:42:01,830
Pierce called.
He told me what happened to Sue.

618
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,170
Everything all right, doll?
Want me to get rid of him?

619
00:42:05,670 --> 00:42:06,670
Hit the road.

620
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:10,380
Maybe I will...

621
00:42:11,010 --> 00:42:12,380
maybe I won't.

622
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:16,390
LAPD, shitbird. Get out or
I'll have your wife come get you.

623
00:42:33,070 --> 00:42:34,490
- Officer.
- Councilman.

624
00:42:53,260 --> 00:42:56,590
- Would you care for a drink?
- Yeah, Scotch straight.

625
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:06,060
I was friendly with Sue Lefferts,
but we weren't friends.

626
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:07,770
Know what I mean?

627
00:43:08,230 --> 00:43:09,810
You sorry she's dead?

628
00:43:11,730 --> 00:43:13,110
Of course I am.

629
00:43:13,530 --> 00:43:15,280
What kind of question is that?

630
00:43:17,570 --> 00:43:19,700
You know why Pierce
is humoring you?

631
00:43:20,070 --> 00:43:22,330
Use words like that,
you might make me mad.

632
00:43:22,740 --> 00:43:23,790
But do you know?

633
00:43:24,240 --> 00:43:25,250
Yeah, I know.

634
00:43:26,410 --> 00:43:28,080
Patchett's running whores...

635
00:43:29,540 --> 00:43:31,380
cut to look like movie stars.

636
00:43:31,750 --> 00:43:35,010
And judging by his address,
something bigger on the side.

637
00:43:35,380 --> 00:43:37,130
He doesn't want any attention.

638
00:43:37,550 --> 00:43:40,970
That's right. Our motives are selfish
so we're cooperating.

639
00:43:41,350 --> 00:43:44,100
So cooperate. Why was
Susan Lefferts at the Nite Owl?

640
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,060
I don't know. I never heard of
the Nite Owl till today.

641
00:43:47,430 --> 00:43:48,430
How'd she meet Patchett?

642
00:43:48,690 --> 00:43:50,150
Pierce meets people.

643
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:54,320
Sue had dreams of Hollywood
and this is how they turned out.

644
00:43:54,940 --> 00:43:58,610
Thanks to Pierce,
we still get to act a little.

645
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,490
Tell me about Pierce.

646
00:44:01,990 --> 00:44:03,910
He's waiting for you to mention money.

647
00:44:05,290 --> 00:44:08,290
- Want some advice, Miss Bracken?
- It's Lynn.

648
00:44:08,790 --> 00:44:09,960
Miss Bracken...

649
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,290
don't ever try to fucking bribe me...

650
00:44:13,670 --> 00:44:15,990
or I'll have you and Patchett
in shit up to your ears.

651
00:44:17,130 --> 00:44:19,510
I remember you from Christmas Eve.

652
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,890
You have a thing
for helping women, don't you?

653
00:44:24,810 --> 00:44:26,470
Maybe I'm just fucking curious.

654
00:44:26,930 --> 00:44:30,140
- You say " fuck" a lot.
- You fuck for money.

655
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:34,020
There's blood on your shirt.
Is that an integral part of your job?

656
00:44:34,270 --> 00:44:35,860
- Yeah.
- Do you enjoy it?

657
00:44:36,230 --> 00:44:37,230
When they deserve it.

658
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:38,820
Did they deserve it today?

659
00:44:40,650 --> 00:44:41,650
I'm not sure.

660
00:44:41,950 --> 00:44:43,200
- But you did it anyway.
- Yeah.

661
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,200
Like the half dozen guys
you screwed today.

662
00:44:47,660 --> 00:44:49,580
Actually, it was only two.

663
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:53,920
You're different, Officer White.

664
00:44:54,290 --> 00:44:58,670
You're the first man in years who didn't
tell me I look like Veronica Lake.

665
00:44:59,050 --> 00:45:00,670
You look better than Veronica Lake.

666
00:45:06,390 --> 00:45:07,390
Pierce Patchett?

667
00:45:09,020 --> 00:45:11,730
He takes a cut of our earnings
and invests it for us.

668
00:45:12,100 --> 00:45:15,060
He doesn't let us use narcotics
and he doesn't abuse us.

669
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:19,280
Can your policeman's mentality
grasp those contradictions?

670
00:45:21,530 --> 00:45:23,700
He had you cut
to look like Veronica Lake.

671
00:45:24,070 --> 00:45:25,070
No.

672
00:45:25,660 --> 00:45:28,450
I'm really a brunette,
but the rest is me.

673
00:45:30,410 --> 00:45:32,870
And that's all the news
that's fit to print.

674
00:45:34,210 --> 00:45:36,090
It's nice meeting you.

675
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,090
- I'd like to see you again.
- For a date...

676
00:45:43,380 --> 00:45:44,550
or an appointment?

677
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:47,720
I don't know.

678
00:45:48,140 --> 00:45:51,680
- Lf it's a date, what's your first name?
- Forget I asked.

679
00:45:52,850 --> 00:45:54,270
It was a mistake.

680
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:16,290
Leonard Bidwell?

681
00:46:17,540 --> 00:46:19,420
Come down here and talk to us.

682
00:46:21,590 --> 00:46:22,800
How's the left these days?

683
00:46:23,420 --> 00:46:24,420
What's it to you?

684
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:26,260
I saw you fight Kid Gavilan.

685
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:28,260
I like your style.

686
00:46:30,890 --> 00:46:32,640
What do you want, Mr. Policeman?

687
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,980
You got a brother in Folsom.
I put him there.

688
00:46:36,350 --> 00:46:37,350
Until 1970.

689
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,480
How'd you like to make it 1960?

690
00:46:39,900 --> 00:46:42,150
I know the judge,
and Lieutenant Exley...

691
00:46:42,530 --> 00:46:44,530
is good friends with the D.A.

692
00:46:47,240 --> 00:46:50,490
We're looking for 3 colored guys
who like to pop off shotguns.

693
00:46:50,870 --> 00:46:52,830
One owns a maroon Mercury coupe.

694
00:46:53,290 --> 00:46:56,290
- Want me to snitch?
- Want to buy your brother 10 years?

695
00:46:56,670 --> 00:46:58,380
- It was 10 years?
- 10 years.

696
00:46:58,750 --> 00:47:01,840
You don't have to say anything,
just look at this list...

697
00:47:02,300 --> 00:47:03,670
and point.

698
00:47:06,130 --> 00:47:08,010
He's bad, so I'll just tell you.

699
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:09,800
Sugar Ray Collins.

700
00:47:10,180 --> 00:47:12,310
Drives a maroon '49 coupe.

701
00:47:12,930 --> 00:47:14,520
Beautiful ride.

702
00:47:15,270 --> 00:47:19,360
Don't know about shotguns,
but he gets his thrills killing dogs.

703
00:47:19,810 --> 00:47:20,980
He's righteous trash.

704
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,530
Look at that. It's five minutes
from here. Thanks.

705
00:47:26,820 --> 00:47:28,200
I'll hear from you...

706
00:47:29,370 --> 00:47:30,660
about my brother?

707
00:47:31,030 --> 00:47:33,160
Keep it up, Lenny. Up.

708
00:47:39,290 --> 00:47:41,420
There it is.
It's in the back.

709
00:47:58,890 --> 00:48:01,400
- One of ours.
- Shit, somebody beat us here.

710
00:48:07,530 --> 00:48:08,740
Damn it.

711
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:10,610
My glasses.

712
00:48:10,990 --> 00:48:12,120
You're kidding.

713
00:48:13,700 --> 00:48:15,580
Just don't shoot me.

714
00:48:24,550 --> 00:48:26,210
What are you doing here?

715
00:48:27,340 --> 00:48:28,920
We were in the neighborhood.

716
00:48:29,340 --> 00:48:32,760
- What do you got?
- Three 12-gauge pumps.

717
00:48:33,050 --> 00:48:34,050
And cash.

718
00:48:36,140 --> 00:48:38,730
So long, Vice.
Badge of Honor, here I come.

719
00:48:39,100 --> 00:48:40,730
Fuck you! This is our collar.

720
00:48:41,100 --> 00:48:42,100
Quiet!

721
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,940
I'm ranking officer here.
We go as a team. End of story.

722
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:52,360
Right.

723
00:48:53,740 --> 00:48:54,780
How many ways in?

724
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,240
Only one. Up the stairs.

725
00:48:58,750 --> 00:49:00,620
He's very serious.

726
00:49:15,300 --> 00:49:16,300
Police!

727
00:49:16,390 --> 00:49:17,390
Don't shoot!

728
00:49:19,390 --> 00:49:21,480
- Don't move.
- Shut up!

729
00:49:21,730 --> 00:49:22,940
Anxious, aren't you?

730
00:49:23,310 --> 00:49:24,310
Don't kill them.

731
00:49:26,610 --> 00:49:28,070
Back, back, back!

732
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:30,610
Get off me!

733
00:49:31,950 --> 00:49:33,320
Against the wall!

734
00:49:33,700 --> 00:49:35,370
- Put your hands up!
- Get over there.

735
00:49:36,620 --> 00:49:38,290
Shut up!
Hands behind your back!

736
00:49:39,620 --> 00:49:40,620
So...

737
00:49:41,250 --> 00:49:43,830
how's it feel
getting out of the office?

738
00:49:50,010 --> 00:49:51,470
This came from forensics.

739
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:53,220
" Burning clothes...

740
00:49:55,220 --> 00:49:56,510
Casitas Youth Camp..."

741
00:50:00,020 --> 00:50:01,730
It's crowded in here, White.

742
00:50:02,390 --> 00:50:04,100
These guys killed Stensland.

743
00:50:20,830 --> 00:50:23,540
The ejection marks on the shells
fired from the shotguns...

744
00:50:23,910 --> 00:50:26,880
are identical to those on the
shell casings found at the Nite Owl.

745
00:50:27,330 --> 00:50:29,170
I want confessions, Edmund.

746
00:50:29,630 --> 00:50:31,630
A night's stewing
has softened them up.

747
00:50:32,970 --> 00:50:34,380
I'll break them, sir.

748
00:50:54,740 --> 00:50:57,610
Are you sure golden boy
is up to the task, Cap?

749
00:50:58,370 --> 00:51:01,240
I think you'd be surprised
what the lad is capable of.

750
00:51:03,700 --> 00:51:05,620
You're 22, aren't you, Ray?

751
00:51:11,130 --> 00:51:12,880
Did an officer work you over?

752
00:51:15,300 --> 00:51:18,010
- You're 22, right?
- Why do you keep asking that?

753
00:51:18,390 --> 00:51:20,720
22 makes it a gas chamber bounce.

754
00:51:21,220 --> 00:51:23,430
You should've pulled this 2 years ago.

755
00:51:23,810 --> 00:51:26,980
Get life, do a little
Youth Authority jolt...

756
00:51:27,230 --> 00:51:28,980
transfer to Folsom a big man.

757
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:31,190
Get yourself a sissy.

758
00:51:31,690 --> 00:51:33,440
I don't truck with sissies.

759
00:51:36,450 --> 00:51:37,490
Louis.

760
00:51:38,240 --> 00:51:39,240
What?

761
00:51:40,820 --> 00:51:43,410
You did the Casitas
Youth Camp with Louis.

762
00:51:43,660 --> 00:51:47,410
Why you keep asking me about Louis?
His business is his business.

763
00:51:47,670 --> 00:51:51,000
Sugar, Louis told me
you went sissy up at Casitas.

764
00:51:51,420 --> 00:51:55,380
You couldn't do the time, so you got
a big white boy to look after you.

765
00:51:55,630 --> 00:51:57,260
Said they called you Sugar...

766
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,050
because you gave it out so sweet.

767
00:52:01,140 --> 00:52:05,180
Louis gave it up at Casitas.
I was the boss jock in my dorm!

768
00:52:05,430 --> 00:52:06,430
He was the sissy!

769
00:52:06,890 --> 00:52:10,850
Louis gave it up for candy bars!
He ain't got the sense of a dog!

770
00:52:12,020 --> 00:52:13,440
You like to shoot dogs.

771
00:52:13,940 --> 00:52:15,940
Dogs got no reason to live.

772
00:52:18,070 --> 00:52:19,410
What about people?

773
00:52:19,780 --> 00:52:21,370
What you trying to say?

774
00:52:21,870 --> 00:52:23,200
We got the shotguns.

775
00:52:23,580 --> 00:52:24,950
I don't own shotguns.

776
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:27,540
Why were you throwing clothes
in the incinerator?

777
00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:28,960
Say what?

778
00:52:29,420 --> 00:52:33,710
A neighbor said she saw you
throwing clothes in the incinerator.

779
00:52:34,090 --> 00:52:35,130
Doesn't look good.

780
00:52:35,590 --> 00:52:37,510
I ain't talking till I see a judge.

781
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,220
Were you on hop? You were
passed out when we arrested you.

782
00:52:41,590 --> 00:52:44,010
Ty and Louis fuck
with that shit, not me.

783
00:52:44,390 --> 00:52:45,970
Where do they get their stuff?

784
00:52:47,430 --> 00:52:48,430
Come on.

785
00:52:49,020 --> 00:52:52,100
Give me one to feed the D.A.
It'll make me look good...

786
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:56,030
and I'll say Sugar Ray's not a punk
like his sissy partners.

787
00:53:02,870 --> 00:53:05,030
Tell me where Jones and Fontaine...

788
00:53:05,450 --> 00:53:06,700
get their drugs.

789
00:53:09,790 --> 00:53:11,170
Roland Navarette.

790
00:53:13,580 --> 00:53:15,380
He runs a hole-up on Bunker Hill.

791
00:53:15,750 --> 00:53:17,670
And he sells red devils.

792
00:53:18,590 --> 00:53:20,090
Exley's good, I'll give him that.

793
00:53:20,470 --> 00:53:21,470
I'll take a break.

794
00:53:25,470 --> 00:53:28,350
You know, I'm talking
about the gas chamber...

795
00:53:29,390 --> 00:53:31,770
and you haven't asked me
what this is about.

796
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,150
You got a big " guilty" sign
around your neck.

797
00:53:39,990 --> 00:53:41,650
That was masterful.

798
00:53:42,150 --> 00:53:43,160
He's ready to go.

799
00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:53,580
Give Jones the newspaper.
I want him primed.

800
00:53:53,830 --> 00:53:56,210
Take the cuffs off so he can read it.

801
00:53:56,710 --> 00:54:00,300
Ray Collins just ratted you off.
Said the Nite Owl was your idea.

802
00:54:00,710 --> 00:54:04,890
I think it was Ray's idea.
You talk, I think I can save your life.

803
00:54:05,890 --> 00:54:08,600
6 people are dead,
and someone has to pay for it.

804
00:54:08,930 --> 00:54:11,770
Now, it can be you, or it can be Ray.

805
00:54:14,020 --> 00:54:15,770
Louis, he called you queer.

806
00:54:16,190 --> 00:54:19,940
- He said you took it up the ass.
- I didn't kill nobody!

807
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:23,400
Son...

808
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:27,830
you know what'll happen
if you don't talk.

809
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:31,000
You'll go to the gas chamber.
So admit what you did.

810
00:54:32,250 --> 00:54:33,830
I didn't mean to hurt her.

811
00:54:34,210 --> 00:54:36,960
- Maybe she's okay.
- Okay?

812
00:54:38,210 --> 00:54:41,510
They're in the morgue.
They were dead when you left them.

813
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:46,300
I just wanted to lose my cherry.
She don't die, so I don't die.

814
00:54:46,720 --> 00:54:49,140
She don't die, so I don't die.

815
00:54:49,510 --> 00:54:52,020
Louis, who's the girl?
What's her name?

816
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,180
Who are you talking about?

817
00:54:54,890 --> 00:54:56,560
Was she at the Nite Owl?

818
00:54:57,230 --> 00:54:59,570
Listen to me, was she at the Nite Owl?

819
00:55:06,990 --> 00:55:09,280
- This newspaper ain't shit!
- Where's the girl?

820
00:55:09,620 --> 00:55:10,620
You kill her?

821
00:55:11,370 --> 00:55:15,790
Louis lost his cherry, but things
got out of hand. You made her bleed.

822
00:55:16,170 --> 00:55:18,330
She bled on your clothes,
so you burned the clothes.

823
00:55:18,710 --> 00:55:19,710
Who said that?!

824
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:22,250
Now, listen to me.

825
00:55:22,630 --> 00:55:25,090
If she's alive, she's your
only chance.

826
00:55:25,340 --> 00:55:26,550
I think she's alive.

827
00:55:27,130 --> 00:55:28,390
Where is she now?

828
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:30,510
You leave her someplace?

829
00:55:32,100 --> 00:55:33,600
Tell me where she is!

830
00:55:35,730 --> 00:55:37,350
What're you doing?!

831
00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:38,810
Don't.

832
00:55:39,940 --> 00:55:40,940
White!

833
00:55:42,110 --> 00:55:44,150
1 in 6! Where's the girl?

834
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:45,900
I have this under control!

835
00:55:46,150 --> 00:55:47,530
Where's the girl?

836
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:59,210
Sylvester Fitch, 109 Avalon...

837
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,540
brown corner house, upstairs.

838
00:56:15,060 --> 00:56:17,270
- Just give me one minute.
- You got it.

839
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:24,860
Nobody moves.

840
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:27,400
We're going in the front.
Stay put...

841
00:56:27,650 --> 00:56:29,110
until I give the word.

842
00:58:54,680 --> 00:58:56,390
He went around back!

843
00:58:57,970 --> 00:59:02,060
I'm Lieutenant Exley. I'm sorry,
I need to know what time they left.

844
00:59:02,310 --> 00:59:04,640
Get her to the hospital.
Excuse me.

845
00:59:05,230 --> 00:59:06,600
Give your career a rest.

846
00:59:07,150 --> 00:59:08,270
Leave her alone.

847
00:59:08,650 --> 00:59:11,280
A naked guy with a gun?
Who'll believe that?

848
00:59:11,530 --> 00:59:13,240
Get the fuck away from me.

849
00:59:13,820 --> 00:59:18,240
- How will that look in your report?
- Like justice. That's what the man got.

850
00:59:18,660 --> 00:59:21,700
- Justice.
- You don't know the meaning of the word.

851
00:59:22,540 --> 00:59:25,750
You think it means getting
your picture in the paper.

852
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,210
Go after criminals for a change.

853
00:59:28,460 --> 00:59:30,590
Stensland got what he deserved
and so will you.

854
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:47,560
It's best to stay away
when his blood is up.

855
00:59:47,850 --> 00:59:49,310
His blood's always up.

856
00:59:50,900 --> 00:59:52,900
Perhaps you should
avoid him altogether.

857
00:59:53,820 --> 00:59:56,990
Raymond Collins, Ty Jones
and Louis Fontaine.

858
00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:59,950
They are considered
armed and dangerous.

859
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,910
Repeat. The Nite Owl
suspects have escaped.

860
01:00:03,410 --> 01:00:05,250
How'd they get out the window?

861
01:00:05,500 --> 01:00:07,330
They jumped from the 2nd floor.

862
01:00:07,580 --> 01:00:11,710
Girl said they left her at 12.
They could get to the Nite Owl by 1.

863
01:00:12,750 --> 01:00:16,130
The question was,
where did they get their drugs?

864
01:00:16,380 --> 01:00:18,340
I haven't gotten that far yet.

865
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:22,300
" Roland Navarette lives on Bunker Hill.
He runs a hole-up..."

866
01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:25,980
Anyone seen Jack Vincennes?

867
01:00:28,100 --> 01:00:29,520
Is something up?

868
01:00:29,900 --> 01:00:31,650
I need backup. Come on.

869
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:51,130
- What?
- Nothing. Let's go.

870
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,050
This should be it.

871
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:06,760
404.

872
01:01:28,500 --> 01:01:29,500
Nobody moves!

873
01:01:30,710 --> 01:01:31,710
Stay right there!

874
01:01:31,790 --> 01:01:33,670
- You're under arrest.
- Don't shoot!

875
01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:35,460
Please don't shoot!

876
01:01:35,710 --> 01:01:36,840
Don't move!

877
01:02:28,810 --> 01:02:29,810
There he is.

878
01:02:30,770 --> 01:02:32,020
You did good, kid.

879
01:02:32,390 --> 01:02:35,520
You should've seen this place.
Blood everywhere.

880
01:02:36,190 --> 01:02:38,570
Who would have thought?
Shotgun Ed.

881
01:02:39,570 --> 01:02:41,070
Somebody get him cleaned up.

882
01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:42,440
Come on.

883
01:02:45,740 --> 01:02:49,540
Edmund J. Exley
has amassed a brilliant record...

884
01:02:49,910 --> 01:02:52,230
in his 7 years with the
Los Angeles Police Department.

885
01:02:52,580 --> 01:02:55,500
Recently, he evinced
spectacular bravery in the line of duty.

886
01:02:55,870 --> 01:02:58,590
It is our privilege to present him
with our highest honor:

887
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:00,590
The Medal of Valor.

888
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:03,130
- What kind of car was it?
- It was a Ford.

889
01:03:03,510 --> 01:03:06,090
My husband always drove a Ford.
I know what they look like.

890
01:03:06,930 --> 01:03:09,470
Excuse me, ma'am.
Just the facts. Light or dark?

891
01:03:09,850 --> 01:03:13,520
Light. And that's really
all I remember, Officer.

892
01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,440
Thank you.
You've been a big help.

893
01:03:17,100 --> 01:03:18,610
Cut!
That's a print.

894
01:03:18,980 --> 01:03:20,320
Big Jack!

895
01:03:20,980 --> 01:03:21,980
He's back!

896
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:24,110
Jack's back.

897
01:03:57,350 --> 01:04:00,860
Tell Mr. Patchett I have no intention
of changing my vote.

898
01:04:12,580 --> 01:04:17,250
It may surprise some that an official
would admit to making a mistake...

899
01:04:18,210 --> 01:04:20,540
but after due consideration...

900
01:04:21,250 --> 01:04:24,340
I am changing my position
on the matter before the council.

901
01:04:26,300 --> 01:04:29,430
" Go west, America"
was a slogan of Manifest Destiny.

902
01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:33,350
Today is that last step westward
with no stop signs...

903
01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:35,890
no traffic signals, from downtown...

904
01:04:36,270 --> 01:04:38,230
to the beach in 20 minutes.

905
01:05:09,170 --> 01:05:11,300
What were you going to start with?

906
01:05:13,430 --> 01:05:14,850
Prostitution?

907
01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:17,890
Gambling?

908
01:05:21,350 --> 01:05:25,400
Go back to Jersey, sonny.
This is the City of the Angels...

909
01:05:25,690 --> 01:05:27,780
and you haven't got any wings.

910
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:52,930
Nice to see you again.
Take care.

911
01:06:30,380 --> 01:06:33,550
I wondered when you'd
knock on my door again, Officer White.

912
01:06:34,300 --> 01:06:35,300
It's Bud.

913
01:06:37,010 --> 01:06:38,060
Bud.

914
01:07:07,580 --> 01:07:08,590
Why me?

915
01:07:10,750 --> 01:07:11,880
I don't know.

916
01:07:48,580 --> 01:07:49,670
This election...

917
01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:53,170
is about the future of
law enforcement in Los Angeles.

918
01:07:53,550 --> 01:07:56,510
City Councilman Rogers
represents that future.

919
01:07:56,930 --> 01:07:58,510
So let's dig deep...

920
01:07:58,890 --> 01:08:02,470
and get a moral man re-elected.
Ellis Loew wants to say a few words.

921
01:08:06,690 --> 01:08:09,650
Thank you, Brett Chase.
The talented star of Badge of Honor.

922
01:08:12,150 --> 01:08:14,690
Let me tell you,
I am so thrilled to be here.

923
01:08:16,490 --> 01:08:17,490
Big V.

924
01:08:19,950 --> 01:08:21,490
Good to see you back.

925
01:08:21,870 --> 01:08:24,500
- How they hanging, Sid?
- Down around my ankles.

926
01:08:24,870 --> 01:08:26,620
You tight with the D.A., Jackie?

927
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:30,330
He tried to throw me
off the force last Christmas.

928
01:08:30,710 --> 01:08:32,170
How about some payback, big-time?

929
01:08:32,540 --> 01:08:37,130
Plus the usual $50 donation
to the Jack Vincennes retirement fund.

930
01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:40,760
- Did you know the D.A. was a swish?
- No kidding?

931
01:08:43,510 --> 01:08:46,480
Remember Matt Reynolds? Christmas Eve?
"The Movie Premiere Pot Bust"?

932
01:08:46,850 --> 01:08:49,350
- He just got off the honor farm.
- What's he doing here?

933
01:08:50,310 --> 01:08:52,690
Reynolds is acey-deucey,
not to mention broke.

934
01:08:53,070 --> 01:08:55,280
I'm getting him
to fuck the D.A. for $ 100.

935
01:08:55,650 --> 01:08:58,450
That's twice the $50
you got for wrecking his career.

936
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:02,700
- Come here, come here.
- Jesus, don't bring him...

937
01:09:07,750 --> 01:09:09,330
That's D.A. Loew right there.

938
01:09:14,710 --> 01:09:15,920
You need a drink?

939
01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:17,880
Yeah.

940
01:09:19,010 --> 01:09:20,050
Look after him.

941
01:09:20,430 --> 01:09:24,140
Matt, this is Jack.
No secrets between me and him.

942
01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:31,810
- How you doing?
- I'm okay. How're you?

943
01:09:32,100 --> 01:09:33,230
I'm good.

944
01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:38,110
Have we met before?

945
01:09:40,530 --> 01:09:41,570
Yeah.

946
01:09:42,820 --> 01:09:44,030
Was it at a party?

947
01:09:44,450 --> 01:09:46,160
It was something like that.

948
01:09:47,870 --> 01:09:49,410
Fleur-de-Lis party, right?

949
01:09:50,790 --> 01:09:51,830
Right.

950
01:09:52,620 --> 01:09:54,000
Fleur-de-Lis.

951
01:09:54,750 --> 01:09:56,590
" Whatever you desire."

952
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,510
Dope, hookers that
look like movie stars...

953
01:10:00,050 --> 01:10:01,840
Pierce Patchett has it all.

954
01:10:02,930 --> 01:10:04,640
You could say that again.

955
01:10:05,010 --> 01:10:07,430
Pierce, he's not like regular guys.

956
01:10:09,220 --> 01:10:10,430
I dig him...

957
01:10:12,100 --> 01:10:13,100
but you know...

958
01:10:14,190 --> 01:10:15,520
he scares me too.

959
01:10:16,400 --> 01:10:17,440
Really?

960
01:10:18,070 --> 01:10:19,070
How?

961
01:10:20,070 --> 01:10:24,870
When I came out to L.A. this isn't
exactly where I saw myself ending up.

962
01:10:26,330 --> 01:10:27,410
Yeah, well...

963
01:10:27,790 --> 01:10:28,870
get in line.

964
01:10:29,500 --> 01:10:31,460
Dutch courage, kid. Drink up.

965
01:10:36,460 --> 01:10:38,550
I don't think I should do this.

966
01:10:39,130 --> 01:10:41,220
It's not like you don't know how.

967
01:10:41,470 --> 01:10:45,970
Jack's connected to Badge of Honor.
Pull this off, you'll get a part.

968
01:10:46,350 --> 01:10:49,100
I smell a comeback, don't you, Jack?

969
01:10:51,850 --> 01:10:52,980
The D.A.'s free.

970
01:10:53,350 --> 01:10:55,850
Go introduce yourself. Go on.

971
01:10:56,310 --> 01:10:58,860
Tell him about the opening on the show.

972
01:11:00,150 --> 01:11:02,320
I'm pretty sure I can get you a part.

973
01:11:04,150 --> 01:11:09,280
But that's later on. Tonight, just
go over and pretend it's an acting job.

974
01:11:09,660 --> 01:11:10,910
Like show biz.

975
01:11:11,290 --> 01:11:12,370
Acting, that's it.

976
01:11:12,750 --> 01:11:13,750
Right.

977
01:11:13,870 --> 01:11:15,460
No one's going to know about this?

978
01:11:15,830 --> 01:11:16,830
No.

979
01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:20,340
It'll be our secret.

980
01:11:25,130 --> 01:11:27,550
- Show biz.
- That's it. Go on.

981
01:11:31,140 --> 01:11:32,770
Show biz.

982
01:11:34,850 --> 01:11:37,100
If Reynolds works his charms,
and he will...

983
01:11:37,350 --> 01:11:40,150
they'll be at the Hollywood
Center Motel, room 203.

984
01:11:40,400 --> 01:11:42,480
Meet me there at midnight
for a photo shoot.

985
01:11:43,650 --> 01:11:46,700
Maybe we can work in
the Hollywood sign this time.

986
01:11:48,070 --> 01:11:49,700
You know Pierce Patchett?

987
01:11:51,540 --> 01:11:53,080
I know what you know.

988
01:11:53,450 --> 01:11:57,710
He's rich. Invested in the freeways,
which'll make him richer. Why?

989
01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,050
I keep hearing rumors.

990
01:12:01,420 --> 01:12:04,670
High-class porn, drugs, hookers
that look like movie stars.

991
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:09,010
Patchett's what I call twilight.
He ain't queer or red.

992
01:12:09,510 --> 01:12:13,220
He cannot help me in my quest
for prime sinnuendo.

993
01:12:18,980 --> 01:12:22,940
As though Badge of Honor would
touch that guy with a 10-foot pole...

994
01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:26,320
after he's been Hush-Hush
cover boy twice in one year.

995
01:12:26,700 --> 01:12:27,740
See you soon.

996
01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:32,030
Midnight. I guarantee all kinds
of illegal activity.

997
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:06,440
Another, Jack?

998
01:13:51,910 --> 01:13:52,910
Kid?

999
01:14:00,910 --> 01:14:03,380
Come on, you don't have to do this...

1000
01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:37,490
Thank you for what you did for me...

1001
01:14:37,830 --> 01:14:40,370
for killing those animals
who raped me.

1002
01:14:40,790 --> 01:14:43,540
Will you thank Officer White
for me, please?

1003
01:14:43,790 --> 01:14:44,790
Sure.

1004
01:14:46,380 --> 01:14:50,300
Seeing him come through the door
is about the only thing I remember.

1005
01:14:50,550 --> 01:14:51,590
Thank God.

1006
01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:55,590
You remember what time
the Negroes left you?

1007
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:58,970
In your statement, you said
they left you at midnight.

1008
01:14:59,220 --> 01:15:00,310
They might have.

1009
01:15:05,850 --> 01:15:07,190
They " might" have?

1010
01:15:07,480 --> 01:15:11,030
I don't know what time they left me.
I wanted them dead.

1011
01:15:11,530 --> 01:15:14,820
Would anyone care that they
raped a Mexican girl...

1012
01:15:15,160 --> 01:15:18,080
if they hadn't killed those
white people at the Nite Owl?

1013
01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:21,410
I did what I had to do for justice.

1014
01:15:22,330 --> 01:15:23,620
Exley, over here.

1015
01:15:23,870 --> 01:15:24,920
Smile, Inez.

1016
01:15:26,630 --> 01:15:28,380
Is he your hero?

1017
01:15:29,090 --> 01:15:33,380
Fellas, how about this? " Rape Victim
Wheeled Out by Nite Owl Hero."

1018
01:15:39,180 --> 01:15:41,270
All they get is Veronica Lake.

1019
01:15:43,600 --> 01:15:45,810
I get Lynn Margaret Bracken.

1020
01:15:57,030 --> 01:15:58,070
" Bisbee"?

1021
01:16:00,410 --> 01:16:01,830
I grew up there.

1022
01:16:04,040 --> 01:16:08,420
I'm going back in a couple of years,
open up a dress shop.

1023
01:16:10,540 --> 01:16:13,630
The girls in Bisbee
need a little glamour.

1024
01:16:19,300 --> 01:16:20,800
Where'd this come from?

1025
01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:26,520
I was 12. My dad went after my mother
with a bottle. I got in the way.

1026
01:16:28,650 --> 01:16:30,110
So you saved her.

1027
01:16:31,650 --> 01:16:32,820
Not for long.

1028
01:16:36,070 --> 01:16:39,200
- I'm sorry. It's none of my business.
- He tied me to the radiator.

1029
01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:43,200
I watched him beat my mother to death
with a tire iron...

1030
01:16:45,750 --> 01:16:47,160
and he left me there.

1031
01:16:49,790 --> 01:16:52,670
Three days before
a truant officer found us.

1032
01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:57,720
They never found the old man.

1033
01:17:07,180 --> 01:17:09,060
Is that why you became a cop?

1034
01:17:09,940 --> 01:17:11,230
To get even?

1035
01:17:12,940 --> 01:17:13,980
Maybe.

1036
01:17:15,990 --> 01:17:17,360
Do you like it?

1037
01:17:20,780 --> 01:17:22,030
I used to.

1038
01:17:24,160 --> 01:17:26,910
Now it's all strong-arm,
sitting duck stuff.

1039
01:17:30,620 --> 01:17:34,460
If I could get a chance to work
Homicide like a real detective...

1040
01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:39,510
That prick, Exley.
He shot the wrong guys.

1041
01:17:40,180 --> 01:17:44,720
Whoever killed Stensland's still around.
I know it in here. I know it.

1042
01:17:45,470 --> 01:17:47,270
Something's wrong
with the Nite Owl.

1043
01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:49,730
I just can't prove it, that's all.

1044
01:17:51,060 --> 01:17:52,900
I'm not smart enough.

1045
01:17:55,020 --> 01:17:58,190
I'm just the guy they bring in
to scare the other guy shitless.

1046
01:18:01,530 --> 01:18:02,870
You're wrong.

1047
01:18:03,820 --> 01:18:06,240
You found Patchett. You found me.

1048
01:18:06,740 --> 01:18:08,450
You're smart enough.

1049
01:18:20,220 --> 01:18:23,260
Bud White. What brings you
down to the basement?

1050
01:18:27,060 --> 01:18:28,970
A couple of Nite Owl questions.

1051
01:18:29,220 --> 01:18:32,310
Don't know if you read the papers,
but that case is closed.

1052
01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:36,150
Anything bother you about it?

1053
01:18:36,900 --> 01:18:40,570
The fact that the pack-up boys haven't
hauled this shit out of here yet.

1054
01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:49,290
The suspects' 3 shotguns match
the strike marks on the shell casings.

1055
01:18:50,410 --> 01:18:52,080
What more do you want?

1056
01:19:03,970 --> 01:19:05,800
There's blood on the wall here.

1057
01:19:06,430 --> 01:19:08,890
I thought everyone got shot
in the men's room.

1058
01:19:09,140 --> 01:19:11,430
That is Stensland's blood.

1059
01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:17,480
Blow to the head. Probably unconscious
when they dragged him in the john.

1060
01:19:19,110 --> 01:19:20,440
They hit anyone else?

1061
01:19:20,690 --> 01:19:23,900
No, but he was a cop.
Probably tried to do something.

1062
01:19:27,830 --> 01:19:31,370
Grilled cheese, black coffee.
Someone was sitting next to him.

1063
01:19:35,500 --> 01:19:37,210
2 of the victims were women?

1064
01:19:37,500 --> 01:19:41,380
Yeah, Patti DeLuca, the night shift
waitress, and a Susan Lefferts.

1065
01:19:46,140 --> 01:19:47,850
Susan Lefferts.

1066
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:50,970
What about her?

1067
01:19:54,180 --> 01:19:55,480
You're welcome!

1068
01:20:01,610 --> 01:20:02,780
Mrs. Lefferts?

1069
01:20:03,150 --> 01:20:04,990
I'm Officer White, LAPD.

1070
01:20:07,950 --> 01:20:11,240
Tell me about the boyfriend.
The one you mentioned at the coroner's.

1071
01:20:11,490 --> 01:20:13,830
Susie, I told you
I didn't approve.

1072
01:20:14,460 --> 01:20:18,750
He was too old for you.
And you let him be fresh with me.

1073
01:20:20,630 --> 01:20:22,920
They came here one day
when I wasn't home.

1074
01:20:23,510 --> 01:20:25,170
Mrs. Jensen next door said...

1075
01:20:25,550 --> 01:20:28,970
she saw Susie's boyfriend
and another man...

1076
01:20:29,350 --> 01:20:31,010
and she heard a ruckus.

1077
01:20:31,810 --> 01:20:32,890
What was his name?

1078
01:20:33,180 --> 01:20:35,730
We weren't properly introduced.

1079
01:20:36,480 --> 01:20:38,650
He had a nickname, Muns or Luns.

1080
01:20:39,020 --> 01:20:41,480
Stens? Was it Stens?

1081
01:20:41,730 --> 01:20:42,820
Maybe.

1082
01:20:43,190 --> 01:20:45,190
- I don't know.
- Look at this picture.

1083
01:20:49,030 --> 01:20:50,120
That's him.

1084
01:20:50,530 --> 01:20:51,530
That's him.

1085
01:20:56,910 --> 01:20:59,250
You said a neighbor heard a ruckus.

1086
01:20:59,830 --> 01:21:00,830
Outside?

1087
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:02,000
Inside?

1088
01:21:03,210 --> 01:21:04,380
Outside.

1089
01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:08,590
And then Mrs. Jensen said
they kept going under the house.

1090
01:21:12,810 --> 01:21:15,100
You have to leave now, Officer.

1091
01:21:16,430 --> 01:21:19,810
- What's through here?
- Just a room full of old things.

1092
01:21:20,060 --> 01:21:21,900
Don't move that.

1093
01:21:24,400 --> 01:21:27,990
Don't mind the smell.
I think a rat died behind the wall.

1094
01:21:29,360 --> 01:21:30,780
My Susie was a good girl.

1095
01:21:31,530 --> 01:21:34,580
She was never in any
kind of trouble at all.

1096
01:22:45,980 --> 01:22:48,230
"Leland Meeks."
Never heard of you.

1097
01:22:48,610 --> 01:22:50,070
They call me Buzz.

1098
01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:58,370
Was it a rat?

1099
01:22:59,290 --> 01:23:01,040
Yeah, a great big one.

1100
01:23:03,460 --> 01:23:04,460
Here.

1101
01:23:05,460 --> 01:23:07,380
Compliments of the Police Department.

1102
01:23:24,520 --> 01:23:27,310
Stomach of the week
from a motel homicide.

1103
01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:31,150
Unemployed actor had frankfurter,
french fries, alcohol and sperm.

1104
01:23:31,400 --> 01:23:33,780
Hell of a last supper,
don't you think?

1105
01:23:34,030 --> 01:23:36,950
Anything bothering you
about the Nite Owl case?

1106
01:23:37,490 --> 01:23:39,450
The fact that you guys
won't let it go.

1107
01:23:40,660 --> 01:23:44,250
- What do you mean?
- Bud White grilled me on it today.

1108
01:23:45,420 --> 01:23:46,540
Bud White?

1109
01:23:47,290 --> 01:23:49,210
He's not as dumb as I thought.

1110
01:23:51,590 --> 01:23:54,220
Did he say where he was going?

1111
01:24:06,730 --> 01:24:08,520
Let my daughter rest in peace!

1112
01:24:08,770 --> 01:24:10,900
I just want to ask a few questions.

1113
01:24:11,150 --> 01:24:13,530
Officer White already checked
under the house.

1114
01:24:14,110 --> 01:24:15,200
Under the house?

1115
01:24:15,950 --> 01:24:18,160
- Where?
- Out back.

1116
01:24:19,740 --> 01:24:21,330
All he found was rodents.

1117
01:24:24,710 --> 01:24:28,630
I need an I.D. on this as soon as
possible. Talk only to me on this one.

1118
01:24:32,630 --> 01:24:33,630
I need your help.

1119
01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:37,220
I'm busy. Why don't you ask
your boys in Homicide?

1120
01:24:40,140 --> 01:24:42,850
I can't. I need someone
outside of Homicide.

1121
01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:46,310
I want you to tail Bud White.

1122
01:24:47,810 --> 01:24:49,980
Do me a favor. Leave me alone.

1123
01:24:51,190 --> 01:24:53,480
You make the 3 Negroes
for the Nite Owl killings?

1124
01:24:56,820 --> 01:24:57,820
What?

1125
01:24:57,990 --> 01:24:59,320
It's a simple question.

1126
01:25:01,530 --> 01:25:04,240
Why in the world
do you want to dig deeper...

1127
01:25:04,620 --> 01:25:06,410
into the Nite Owl killings...

1128
01:25:06,790 --> 01:25:07,870
Lieutenant?

1129
01:25:11,750 --> 01:25:13,130
Rollo Tomasi.

1130
01:25:15,340 --> 01:25:17,340
Is there more or do I have to guess?

1131
01:25:20,510 --> 01:25:22,550
Rollo was a purse snatcher.

1132
01:25:27,100 --> 01:25:29,060
My father ran into him off-duty.

1133
01:25:31,190 --> 01:25:34,150
He shot my father 6 times
and got away clean.

1134
01:25:35,780 --> 01:25:37,400
No one knew who he was.

1135
01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:40,450
I made the name up
to give him personality.

1136
01:25:42,320 --> 01:25:43,370
Your point?

1137
01:25:44,030 --> 01:25:46,660
Rollo Tomasi's the reason
I became a cop.

1138
01:25:47,580 --> 01:25:50,960
I wanted to catch the guys who
thought they could get away with it.

1139
01:25:52,540 --> 01:25:54,290
It was about justice.

1140
01:25:55,300 --> 01:25:58,170
Then somewhere along the way
I lost sight of that.

1141
01:26:02,430 --> 01:26:03,680
Why'd you become a cop?

1142
01:26:14,320 --> 01:26:15,940
I don't remember.

1143
01:26:22,780 --> 01:26:23,990
What do you want?

1144
01:26:24,740 --> 01:26:26,290
I want to solve this.

1145
01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:28,620
Nite Owl was solved.

1146
01:26:31,580 --> 01:26:32,750
I want to do it right.

1147
01:26:33,580 --> 01:26:35,840
Even if it means
paying the consequences?

1148
01:26:39,470 --> 01:26:41,180
All right, college boy, I'll help.

1149
01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:44,350
But there's a case your boys
in Homicide don't care about.

1150
01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:48,520
They think it's just another
Hollywood " homo" -cide. But I don't.

1151
01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:52,650
You help me with mine,
I'll help you with yours.

1152
01:26:53,230 --> 01:26:54,230
Deal?

1153
01:26:55,230 --> 01:26:56,230
Deal.

1154
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:30,520
Johnny Stompanato.

1155
01:27:31,810 --> 01:27:34,520
Officer Wendell White.
How's tricks, paesano?

1156
01:27:34,900 --> 01:27:36,400
I ain't your paesano.

1157
01:27:37,310 --> 01:27:39,360
I ain't in the snitch business anymore.

1158
01:27:39,690 --> 01:27:41,740
You know a guy named Buzz Meeks?

1159
01:27:42,950 --> 01:27:44,660
Works for Pierce Patchett.

1160
01:27:45,360 --> 01:27:46,450
Should I?

1161
01:27:47,950 --> 01:27:50,660
You're muscle for hire.
Meeks is muscle for hire.

1162
01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:52,250
You tell me.

1163
01:27:54,290 --> 01:27:56,080
Yeah, I remember now.

1164
01:27:56,460 --> 01:27:59,920
Meeks is a run-down ex-cop.
Same as you'll be some day.

1165
01:28:00,300 --> 01:28:01,760
That's all you'll get.

1166
01:28:02,630 --> 01:28:04,340
Keep your $20.

1167
01:28:09,970 --> 01:28:13,390
What do I get if I give you your
balls back, you wop cocksucker?

1168
01:28:17,770 --> 01:28:19,940
There was a rumor going around...

1169
01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,320
that Meeks had a line
on a large supply of H.

1170
01:28:25,490 --> 01:28:26,490
And?

1171
01:28:27,160 --> 01:28:28,410
And nothing!

1172
01:28:28,780 --> 01:28:30,330
He skipped out.

1173
01:28:42,840 --> 01:28:43,920
Bullshit.

1174
01:28:44,970 --> 01:28:48,090
How would Meeks get his hands
on a large supply of heroin?

1175
01:28:49,010 --> 01:28:50,100
You're right.

1176
01:28:50,350 --> 01:28:52,140
It's probably bullshit.

1177
01:28:52,510 --> 01:28:54,930
Even if he did,
he couldn't unload it.

1178
01:28:55,350 --> 01:28:57,810
Not without drawing
all kinds of attention.

1179
01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:02,270
Maybe that's why he's under a house
in Elysian Park not smelling too good...

1180
01:29:03,860 --> 01:29:05,070
paesano.

1181
01:29:57,660 --> 01:30:00,040
Maybe White's
not so dumb after all.

1182
01:30:13,430 --> 01:30:17,310
We got Rita Hayworth at the morgue,
and now Veronica Lake with White.

1183
01:30:17,930 --> 01:30:22,150
I think your case and my case
are connected. It's Fleur-de-Lis again.

1184
01:30:22,440 --> 01:30:23,520
Fleur-de-Lis?

1185
01:30:24,610 --> 01:30:26,070
" Whatever you desire."

1186
01:30:26,440 --> 01:30:27,440
Porno.

1187
01:30:27,940 --> 01:30:30,650
High-class whores
cut to look like movie stars.

1188
01:30:30,990 --> 01:30:34,410
Who knows what else? Reynolds,
the kid that got killed, was involved.

1189
01:30:34,780 --> 01:30:36,240
So is Pierce Patchett.

1190
01:30:36,620 --> 01:30:37,790
The millionaire?

1191
01:30:38,450 --> 01:30:40,330
I think we should talk to him.

1192
01:30:41,250 --> 01:30:43,130
First I want to brace Stompanato.

1193
01:30:59,520 --> 01:31:01,850
Want an autograph?
Write to MGM.

1194
01:31:02,850 --> 01:31:05,980
Since when do two-bit hoods
and hookers give out autographs?

1195
01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:07,520
What?

1196
01:31:07,780 --> 01:31:09,030
LAPD. Sit down.

1197
01:31:09,280 --> 01:31:11,400
Who the hell do you think you are?

1198
01:31:11,650 --> 01:31:13,030
Take a walk, honey.

1199
01:31:13,490 --> 01:31:16,580
- You're making a large mistake.
- Get away from our table.

1200
01:31:16,950 --> 01:31:17,950
Shut up.

1201
01:31:19,500 --> 01:31:21,700
A hooker cut to look like Lana Turner
is still a hooker.

1202
01:31:22,830 --> 01:31:25,250
- She just looks like Lana Turner.
- She is Lana Turner.

1203
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:28,590
She is Lana Turner.

1204
01:31:37,890 --> 01:31:39,560
How was I supposed to know?

1205
01:31:55,860 --> 01:31:59,540
I believe the Nite Owl's
your area of expertise, Mr. Exley.

1206
01:31:59,950 --> 01:32:02,410
I saw you on television
getting your medal.

1207
01:32:04,080 --> 01:32:05,210
And you're...

1208
01:32:05,710 --> 01:32:09,460
that other Hollywood
celebrity policeman, aren't you?

1209
01:32:10,550 --> 01:32:14,380
The Veronica Lake look-alike works
for you. She's one of your whores.

1210
01:32:15,840 --> 01:32:19,010
- A vulgar term.
- Why's she seeing Bud White?

1211
01:32:19,390 --> 01:32:22,890
Why do men and women
usually see each other?

1212
01:32:25,940 --> 01:32:28,440
Fleur-de-Lis.

1213
01:32:29,060 --> 01:32:30,770
" Whatever you desire."

1214
01:32:31,530 --> 01:32:32,940
An actor named...

1215
01:32:33,530 --> 01:32:34,530
Matt Reynolds.

1216
01:32:36,240 --> 01:32:37,240
Nothing?

1217
01:32:40,370 --> 01:32:42,080
We want some answers.

1218
01:32:44,910 --> 01:32:46,670
We all want something.

1219
01:32:49,080 --> 01:32:51,050
The guy's as cool as they come.

1220
01:32:53,590 --> 01:32:56,300
Lieutenant Exley,
come in, please. Over.

1221
01:32:57,550 --> 01:32:58,550
Exley.

1222
01:32:58,590 --> 01:33:01,470
The coroner wants to talk to you.
He says he has your I.D.

1223
01:33:02,140 --> 01:33:04,930
Tell him Sergeant Vincennes
is coming in to talk to him.

1224
01:33:05,310 --> 01:33:07,390
- I'll drop you at your car.
- Where are you going?

1225
01:33:07,770 --> 01:33:08,980
Lynn Bracken's.

1226
01:33:09,440 --> 01:33:13,940
To find out why Patchett has her seeing
Bud White. See you at the Frolic Room.

1227
01:33:14,780 --> 01:33:17,990
Oh, great. You get the girl.
I get the coroner.

1228
01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:31,000
Hush-Hush, off the record
and on the q.t.

1229
01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:37,380
I was just coming to see you.
Got that I.D.?

1230
01:33:37,630 --> 01:33:42,010
Thank God for dental records.
Stiff used to be a cop. Leland Meeks.

1231
01:33:42,260 --> 01:33:43,260
Buzz Meeks?

1232
01:33:43,430 --> 01:33:44,770
- You knew him?
- Of him.

1233
01:33:45,020 --> 01:33:48,690
He was around when I joined the force.
Bad rep. Thanks.

1234
01:33:49,310 --> 01:33:50,560
" Just the facts."

1235
01:33:50,810 --> 01:33:52,480
" Just the facts."

1236
01:33:55,990 --> 01:33:56,990
Anything else?

1237
01:33:57,280 --> 01:34:01,160
Leland Meeks worked Vice '39-'41.
I need to see his arrest records.

1238
01:34:08,370 --> 01:34:09,370
Miss Bracken...

1239
01:34:09,620 --> 01:34:10,830
I'm Lieutenant Exley.

1240
01:34:11,210 --> 01:34:12,210
I know.

1241
01:34:12,670 --> 01:34:14,710
Bud told me all about you.

1242
01:34:15,170 --> 01:34:16,260
Is that so?

1243
01:34:17,380 --> 01:34:19,260
And what did White have to say?

1244
01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:22,720
He said you were smart.

1245
01:34:23,510 --> 01:34:27,180
He also said you were a coward, and that
you'd screw yourself to get ahead.

1246
01:34:27,980 --> 01:34:30,060
Let's concentrate on my smarts.

1247
01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:35,360
Pierce Patchett made you, didn't he?
Taught you how to dress, talk and think.

1248
01:34:36,530 --> 01:34:38,360
And I'm impressed with the results.

1249
01:34:39,820 --> 01:34:41,030
But I need answers.

1250
01:34:41,410 --> 01:34:44,370
And if I don't get them,
I'll take you and Patchett down.

1251
01:34:45,160 --> 01:34:47,700
Pierce Patchett
can take care of himself.

1252
01:34:48,910 --> 01:34:50,750
And I'm not afraid of you.

1253
01:34:51,750 --> 01:34:54,250
And you forget one thing, Lieutenant...

1254
01:34:54,750 --> 01:34:57,210
Pierce also taught me how to fuck.

1255
01:35:01,090 --> 01:35:02,840
And he tells you who to fuck.

1256
01:35:03,340 --> 01:35:05,220
Why are you fucking Bud White?

1257
01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:08,600
What makes you think
I'm not seeing Bud because I want to?

1258
01:35:10,430 --> 01:35:13,650
It would be easier for you
if there was an angle, wouldn't it?

1259
01:35:14,560 --> 01:35:17,440
You're afraid of Bud because you can't
figure out how to play him.

1260
01:35:18,730 --> 01:35:21,820
He doesn't follow
the same rules of politics as you do.

1261
01:35:22,700 --> 01:35:24,320
It makes him dangerous.

1262
01:35:24,700 --> 01:35:25,780
I can handle Bud White.

1263
01:35:26,240 --> 01:35:27,240
Can you?

1264
01:35:31,410 --> 01:35:33,500
I see Bud because I want to.

1265
01:35:37,090 --> 01:35:40,300
I see Bud because
he can't hide the good inside of him.

1266
01:35:42,260 --> 01:35:44,890
I see Bud because he makes me feel
like Lynn Bracken...

1267
01:35:45,260 --> 01:35:48,470
and not a Veronica Lake
look-alike who fucks for money.

1268
01:35:50,770 --> 01:35:54,940
I see Bud because he doesn't
know how to disguise who he is.

1269
01:35:57,110 --> 01:36:00,610
I see Bud for all the ways
he's different from you.

1270
01:36:03,150 --> 01:36:05,110
Don't underestimate me.

1271
01:36:05,780 --> 01:36:08,660
The way you've
underestimated Bud White?

1272
01:36:15,250 --> 01:36:17,960
Fucking me and fucking Bud
aren't the same thing.

1273
01:36:18,460 --> 01:36:20,340
Stop talking about Bud White.

1274
01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:47,160
Come on.

1275
01:36:49,990 --> 01:36:51,160
Shit.

1276
01:37:04,670 --> 01:37:06,260
Jack Vincennes.

1277
01:37:07,340 --> 01:37:08,890
It's going on midnight.

1278
01:37:09,390 --> 01:37:11,060
I need 2 minutes, Dudley.

1279
01:37:11,560 --> 01:37:12,560
It's important.

1280
01:37:13,350 --> 01:37:17,560
Good thing for you my wife and daughters
are at the beach in Santa Barbara.

1281
01:37:20,860 --> 01:37:23,320
Do you remember Buzz Meeks?

1282
01:37:23,610 --> 01:37:25,820
A disgrace as a police officer.

1283
01:37:26,200 --> 01:37:30,240
Straight D fitness reports from every
C.O. he ever served under. Why?

1284
01:37:31,030 --> 01:37:33,790
12 years ago, he was on a vice roust
with Dick Stensland.

1285
01:37:34,160 --> 01:37:37,330
They questioned Pierce Patchett
about a blackmail scam.

1286
01:37:37,710 --> 01:37:41,750
Patchett had Sid Hudgens photographing
prominent businessmen with hookers.

1287
01:37:42,540 --> 01:37:45,380
Anyway, charges were dropped.
Insufficient evidence.

1288
01:37:45,760 --> 01:37:50,090
You were the supervising officer on
that case. Remember anything about it?

1289
01:37:51,510 --> 01:37:52,930
What's this about, boyo?

1290
01:37:53,850 --> 01:37:57,390
It has to do with a murder
I've been working with Exley on.

1291
01:37:57,890 --> 01:38:00,400
You're Narco, Jack, not Homicide.

1292
01:38:00,770 --> 01:38:02,770
Since when do you work with Exley?

1293
01:38:04,070 --> 01:38:06,320
It's a private investigation.

1294
01:38:08,530 --> 01:38:10,990
I messed something up.
I'm trying to make amends.

1295
01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:14,950
Don't start trying to do the right
thing. You haven't had the practice.

1296
01:38:22,630 --> 01:38:25,460
Buzz Meeks and Dick Stensland.

1297
01:38:28,720 --> 01:38:31,260
So, what does Exley make of this?

1298
01:38:31,930 --> 01:38:35,060
I haven't told him yet.
I just came from the records room.

1299
01:39:00,960 --> 01:39:03,040
Have you a valediction, boyo?

1300
01:39:09,470 --> 01:39:10,970
Rollo...

1301
01:39:12,130 --> 01:39:13,680
Tomasi.

1302
01:39:34,700 --> 01:39:38,120
Sergeant Vincennes was killed
by a .32 slug to the heart.

1303
01:39:38,490 --> 01:39:40,700
Time of death, approximately 1 a.m.

1304
01:39:41,410 --> 01:39:46,630
Although he was found in Echo Park,
forensics indicates the body was moved.

1305
01:39:47,670 --> 01:39:50,920
I want 2-man teams to scour
that entire neighborhood.

1306
01:39:52,010 --> 01:39:54,260
Our justice must be swift...

1307
01:39:54,640 --> 01:39:56,100
and merciless.

1308
01:39:58,390 --> 01:39:59,390
That is all.

1309
01:40:09,190 --> 01:40:11,030
Might I have a word with you?

1310
01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:17,200
We're trying to run down a lead
on an associate of Vincennes.

1311
01:40:17,570 --> 01:40:20,290
The records check has led to a dead end.

1312
01:40:20,660 --> 01:40:21,750
What's the name?

1313
01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:23,580
Rollo Tomasi?

1314
01:40:25,670 --> 01:40:27,540
You ever heard Vincennes mention him?

1315
01:40:30,550 --> 01:40:32,090
No. No, I haven't.

1316
01:40:36,890 --> 01:40:38,800
It's probably nothing. Still...

1317
01:40:40,060 --> 01:40:41,970
keep your eyes open, boyo.

1318
01:40:52,280 --> 01:40:54,860
I know it's unlikely, but suppose...

1319
01:40:55,240 --> 01:40:58,620
somebody had a lot of heroin,
who would they go to to move it?

1320
01:40:59,200 --> 01:41:01,160
White, in my office.

1321
01:41:01,540 --> 01:41:04,000
Captain. Look, just give me a name.

1322
01:41:04,910 --> 01:41:06,120
Mickey Cohen.

1323
01:41:12,250 --> 01:41:13,250
Captain?

1324
01:41:13,420 --> 01:41:15,920
I could use your fearsome
habits at the Victory Motel.

1325
01:41:17,430 --> 01:41:18,470
When?

1326
01:41:19,930 --> 01:41:20,930
Now.

1327
01:41:23,270 --> 01:41:24,810
Close the door, lad.

1328
01:41:32,440 --> 01:41:35,320
You're a bit of a
puzzlement to me these days.

1329
01:41:35,740 --> 01:41:37,910
You don't seem your old cruel self.

1330
01:41:38,610 --> 01:41:41,490
And I had such grand plans
for your future.

1331
01:41:41,740 --> 01:41:42,830
What plans?

1332
01:41:44,410 --> 01:41:48,290
You have your extracurricular
activities and I have mine.

1333
01:41:51,460 --> 01:41:54,510
We must have a clarification
session one of these days.

1334
01:41:55,630 --> 01:41:56,630
However...

1335
01:41:57,470 --> 01:41:58,630
right now...

1336
01:41:59,300 --> 01:42:02,510
we'll brace a man who may know
who killed Jack Vincennes.

1337
01:42:02,850 --> 01:42:04,520
So the question is...

1338
01:42:04,930 --> 01:42:06,430
can I count on you, lad?

1339
01:42:06,680 --> 01:42:08,390
- Yes or no?
- Yes, sir.

1340
01:42:13,610 --> 01:42:17,320
I want to know everything you and
Vincennes talked about last night.

1341
01:42:17,610 --> 01:42:19,570
Start with the I.D. on the corpse.

1342
01:42:19,820 --> 01:42:20,820
An ex-cop.

1343
01:42:21,240 --> 01:42:22,990
Leland " Buzz" Meeks.

1344
01:42:23,370 --> 01:42:24,540
An ex-cop?

1345
01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:26,580
Did Jack know him?

1346
01:42:27,330 --> 01:42:29,160
Only by reputation.

1347
01:42:35,380 --> 01:42:37,510
Wendell, this is Sid Hudgens.

1348
01:42:37,760 --> 01:42:40,470
I'm willing to cooperate.
No need to tie me down.

1349
01:42:40,840 --> 01:42:42,550
It's for your own safety.

1350
01:42:43,430 --> 01:42:46,770
What can you tell us
about Sgt. Jack Vincennes?

1351
01:42:47,020 --> 01:42:49,100
Hollywood Jack? The Big V?

1352
01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:52,400
I can tell you he's on
the night train to the Big Adios.

1353
01:42:56,690 --> 01:43:00,110
I had nothing to do with him
getting killed, if that's what you mean.

1354
01:43:00,490 --> 01:43:04,370
- But you were business associates.
- What's that got to do with anything?

1355
01:43:06,290 --> 01:43:08,370
Okay, so we worked together.

1356
01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:11,000
It was an information exchange.

1357
01:43:11,250 --> 01:43:15,500
I got him first-class collars, he got me
good stories. We were friends.

1358
01:43:15,880 --> 01:43:17,340
We'll drop that for now.

1359
01:43:17,840 --> 01:43:19,670
What about Pierce Patchett?

1360
01:43:19,920 --> 01:43:23,890
You think he had something to do
with Vincennes getting iced?

1361
01:43:24,800 --> 01:43:27,930
I'd like full and docile
cooperation on every topic.

1362
01:43:28,640 --> 01:43:31,020
Okay, okay, okay. All right.

1363
01:43:32,690 --> 01:43:35,480
Everyone knows Patchett's
worth a boatload.

1364
01:43:36,020 --> 01:43:37,730
But he has hobbies too.

1365
01:43:38,110 --> 01:43:40,570
He bankrolls B movies under the table.

1366
01:43:41,110 --> 01:43:42,610
And try this one on.

1367
01:43:42,990 --> 01:43:45,160
He's rumored to be a heroin sniffer.

1368
01:43:45,410 --> 01:43:48,330
All in all, a powerful
behind-the-scenes strange-o.

1369
01:43:48,620 --> 01:43:50,540
- And?
- And what?

1370
01:43:54,710 --> 01:43:58,340
Reciprocity, Mr. Hudgens,
is the key to every relationship.

1371
01:44:01,630 --> 01:44:03,130
He runs call girls.

1372
01:44:05,140 --> 01:44:08,100
Primo tail fixed up
to look like movie stars.

1373
01:44:10,980 --> 01:44:11,980
And?

1374
01:44:12,480 --> 01:44:13,940
Blackmail shit.

1375
01:44:14,850 --> 01:44:17,020
In my car, in the trunk,
under the rug...

1376
01:44:17,940 --> 01:44:22,110
Patchett got me to photograph this cop
screwing this gorgeous slut named Lynn.

1377
01:44:22,360 --> 01:44:24,450
She looks just like Veronica Lake.

1378
01:44:25,950 --> 01:44:26,950
Leave him!

1379
01:44:26,990 --> 01:44:28,580
I said leave him be!

1380
01:44:28,950 --> 01:44:30,290
Get him away from me!

1381
01:44:31,540 --> 01:44:32,540
Back off!

1382
01:45:16,710 --> 01:45:21,550
I wouldn't trade places with Exley right
now for all the whiskey in Ireland.

1383
01:45:25,720 --> 01:45:29,350
Dudley, I thought you were going to
let the dumb bastard kill me!

1384
01:45:30,180 --> 01:45:32,350
Learn to pull your punches
a little better.

1385
01:45:32,720 --> 01:45:34,680
You can uncuff me now, fellas.

1386
01:45:40,480 --> 01:45:41,690
Fellas...

1387
01:45:43,650 --> 01:45:44,650
we had a deal.

1388
01:45:44,820 --> 01:45:46,320
You, me, Patchett. We're a team.

1389
01:45:51,490 --> 01:45:52,740
Hush-hush.

1390
01:45:53,990 --> 01:45:55,870
- Anything?
- Nothing.

1391
01:45:56,250 --> 01:45:58,870
Meeks never made an arrest
the entire time he worked Vice?

1392
01:45:59,250 --> 01:46:01,040
Someone must've pulled the files.

1393
01:46:03,750 --> 01:46:05,550
What about the daily report books?

1394
01:46:05,920 --> 01:46:09,010
- They'd be buried in the basement.
- Find them.

1395
01:46:40,080 --> 01:46:41,580
You talk to Exley?

1396
01:46:42,170 --> 01:46:43,790
Come in out of the rain.

1397
01:46:45,960 --> 01:46:47,920
What happened with Exley?

1398
01:46:49,760 --> 01:46:51,010
Just come in.

1399
01:46:52,470 --> 01:46:55,060
Will you tell me
what happened with Exley?

1400
01:46:55,720 --> 01:46:56,970
We talked.

1401
01:46:57,640 --> 01:46:58,770
Tell me about him.

1402
01:46:59,020 --> 01:47:00,060
Later.

1403
01:47:01,020 --> 01:47:02,060
Now!

1404
01:47:05,360 --> 01:47:06,900
You fucked him.

1405
01:47:10,610 --> 01:47:11,950
You fucked him.

1406
01:47:12,780 --> 01:47:14,780
I thought I was helping you.

1407
01:48:05,830 --> 01:48:08,090
I'm glad you're here.
I need you to see this.

1408
01:48:17,720 --> 01:48:18,720
Wait.

1409
01:48:45,540 --> 01:48:46,960
Dudley killed Jack.

1410
01:48:47,710 --> 01:48:49,420
He wants you to kill me.

1411
01:48:52,630 --> 01:48:54,630
He showed you the photo, didn't he?

1412
01:48:55,470 --> 01:48:56,470
Didn't he?

1413
01:48:59,140 --> 01:49:01,100
Think! Goddamn you, think!

1414
01:49:03,850 --> 01:49:04,940
Get out!

1415
01:49:21,410 --> 01:49:23,620
I checked the daily report books.

1416
01:49:24,750 --> 01:49:28,080
Dudley, Buzz Meeks and
Stensland go way back.

1417
01:49:31,800 --> 01:49:33,550
I knew Stensland lied to me.

1418
01:49:36,680 --> 01:49:39,640
Lefferts' mother I.D.'d
him as Lefferts' boyfriend.

1419
01:49:41,510 --> 01:49:45,980
Stensland pretended he didn't know
Meeks or her the night that I met...

1420
01:49:47,440 --> 01:49:48,520
Lynn.

1421
01:49:49,560 --> 01:49:50,980
Stensland and Meeks...

1422
01:49:51,650 --> 01:49:53,150
what were they up to?

1423
01:49:54,110 --> 01:49:57,450
I don't know. But I think
Stens killed Meeks over heroin.

1424
01:49:57,990 --> 01:49:59,030
What heroin?

1425
01:50:05,080 --> 01:50:08,540
Johnny Stompanato told me
that Meeks had heroin for sale.

1426
01:50:08,960 --> 01:50:10,540
Meeks ends up dead.

1427
01:50:11,130 --> 01:50:13,250
Stensland dies at the Nite Owl.

1428
01:50:14,210 --> 01:50:15,880
It wasn't the Negroes.

1429
01:50:16,970 --> 01:50:18,930
The rape victim lied.

1430
01:50:19,470 --> 01:50:22,970
The first guys to the Mercury coupe
were Breuning and Carlisle.

1431
01:50:23,350 --> 01:50:24,720
Dudley's guys.

1432
01:50:25,270 --> 01:50:27,020
They planted the shotguns.

1433
01:50:27,270 --> 01:50:30,690
They'd have killed the Negroes too
if Jack and I hadn't shown up.

1434
01:50:31,560 --> 01:50:34,780
Dudley framed them because
they were Negroes and had records.

1435
01:50:35,070 --> 01:50:37,530
He knew there'd be no questions asked...

1436
01:50:39,070 --> 01:50:41,490
if they were killed resisting arrest.

1437
01:50:42,490 --> 01:50:44,830
Somehow it's all connected
to Jack's angle.

1438
01:50:45,490 --> 01:50:46,830
Sid Hudgens...

1439
01:50:47,410 --> 01:50:49,540
the pictures to blackmail
Ellis Loew...

1440
01:50:50,710 --> 01:50:51,960
A kid got murdered.

1441
01:50:53,130 --> 01:50:55,300
To figure it out,
we must work together.

1442
01:51:01,010 --> 01:51:02,720
Why are you doing this?

1443
01:51:04,720 --> 01:51:06,430
The Nite Owl made you.

1444
01:51:08,350 --> 01:51:09,980
You want to tear all that down?

1445
01:51:11,600 --> 01:51:13,270
With a wrecking ball.

1446
01:51:13,900 --> 01:51:15,690
Want to help me swing it?

1447
01:51:28,000 --> 01:51:30,000
Let's go see Ellis Loew.

1448
01:51:30,580 --> 01:51:33,290
Find out what
the District Attorney knows.

1449
01:51:41,340 --> 01:51:42,970
You can't go in there.

1450
01:51:45,260 --> 01:51:48,470
- Want me to call the police, Mr. Loew?
- Ask for Capt. Dudley Smith.

1451
01:51:48,680 --> 01:51:52,440
Tell him we're discussing an unemployed
actor's death at a Sunset Strip motel.

1452
01:51:52,690 --> 01:51:53,730
These are the police.

1453
01:52:00,490 --> 01:52:01,700
What do you want?

1454
01:52:01,950 --> 01:52:06,200
I want D.A. bureau men to tail Dudley
Smith and Patchett 24 hours a day.

1455
01:52:06,490 --> 01:52:09,830
I want you to get a judge to authorize
wiretaps on their home phones.

1456
01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:12,370
I want authorization
to check their bank records.

1457
01:52:12,920 --> 01:52:14,330
On what evidence?

1458
01:52:14,920 --> 01:52:16,630
Call it a hunch.

1459
01:52:17,840 --> 01:52:19,550
Absolutely not.

1460
01:52:19,800 --> 01:52:22,720
Dudley Smith is a highly-decorated
member of the department.

1461
01:52:22,970 --> 01:52:24,930
I won't smear his and
Patchett's name without...

1462
01:52:25,180 --> 01:52:26,550
Without what?

1463
01:52:26,970 --> 01:52:28,680
Them smearing yours first?

1464
01:52:29,060 --> 01:52:32,730
What do they have? Pictures of you
and Matt Reynolds with your pants down?

1465
01:52:35,100 --> 01:52:36,150
You have proof?

1466
01:52:36,860 --> 01:52:38,570
The proof had his throat slit.

1467
01:52:39,940 --> 01:52:42,110
So far, you're not denying it.

1468
01:52:43,450 --> 01:52:45,410
I won't dignify this with answers.

1469
01:52:45,660 --> 01:52:48,080
Now if you gentlemen will excuse me...

1470
01:52:48,330 --> 01:52:52,160
I have a press conference for Jack
Vincennes that I have to prepare for.

1471
01:53:02,510 --> 01:53:06,390
Unless you came to wipe my ass,
I believe we're through.

1472
01:53:11,060 --> 01:53:15,390
Don't pull that good-cop-bad-cop crap.
I practically invented it.

1473
01:53:16,190 --> 01:53:18,360
So what if some homo actor is dead.

1474
01:53:18,610 --> 01:53:21,650
Boys, girls. Ten of them
get off the bus to L.A. everyday.

1475
01:53:29,580 --> 01:53:30,830
Pull him off me!

1476
01:53:31,080 --> 01:53:32,080
I don't know how.

1477
01:53:35,960 --> 01:53:39,790
I know you think you're the A-number-one
hotshot, but here's the juice.

1478
01:53:40,040 --> 01:53:42,420
If I kill you, 10 lawyers
will take your place tomorrow.

1479
01:53:42,670 --> 01:53:44,510
They just won't come on a bus.

1480
01:53:58,440 --> 01:53:59,520
Okay!

1481
01:54:00,900 --> 01:54:03,110
Dudley and Patchett, they...

1482
01:54:04,230 --> 01:54:05,280
Oh, my God!

1483
01:54:05,570 --> 01:54:07,570
I wouldn't play ball so they set me up!

1484
01:54:07,820 --> 01:54:09,870
I gave in!
But the kid heard everything...

1485
01:54:11,370 --> 01:54:12,370
so they killed him.

1486
01:54:12,580 --> 01:54:13,580
Why?

1487
01:54:13,950 --> 01:54:17,330
- What are Dudley and Patchett up to?
- Taking over Mickey Cohen's rackets.

1488
01:54:17,580 --> 01:54:21,500
Because of those pictures
I couldn't prosecute them!

1489
01:54:21,880 --> 01:54:23,210
Oh, Jesus!

1490
01:54:23,460 --> 01:54:24,460
Help me up!

1491
01:54:33,560 --> 01:54:35,680
Is that how you ran
the good-cop bad-cop?

1492
01:54:38,270 --> 01:54:39,440
Patchett?

1493
01:55:14,890 --> 01:55:17,520
Looks like his bodyguard
had a conflict of interest.

1494
01:55:23,940 --> 01:55:25,320
Suicide note.

1495
01:55:25,570 --> 01:55:29,950
Says he killed Jack because Jack had
figured out his pornography scam.

1496
01:55:30,200 --> 01:55:32,320
Slicing himself open wasn't his idea.

1497
01:55:33,780 --> 01:55:35,200
2 of his fingers are broken.

1498
01:55:35,450 --> 01:55:36,450
They held him there.

1499
01:55:38,620 --> 01:55:39,620
Or drugged him.

1500
01:55:43,000 --> 01:55:44,750
Dudley's tying up his loose ends.

1501
01:55:45,630 --> 01:55:46,920
Patchett's dead.

1502
01:55:47,170 --> 01:55:48,800
He sent you after me.

1503
01:55:50,470 --> 01:55:51,680
Lynn.

1504
01:55:52,800 --> 01:55:53,970
West Hollywood Sheriff.

1505
01:55:54,220 --> 01:55:57,060
- They're closer than we are.
- I'll get the car. Keys!

1506
01:56:04,560 --> 01:56:07,150
We took her to the station
for safekeeping.

1507
01:56:08,190 --> 01:56:11,700
Hold her as Joan Smith.
And no one sees her unless I okay it.

1508
01:56:12,490 --> 01:56:14,200
Someone worked her over.

1509
01:56:14,450 --> 01:56:16,080
She wouldn't say who.

1510
01:56:21,250 --> 01:56:22,870
See you, Exley.

1511
01:56:26,090 --> 01:56:27,590
We should talk to Lynn.

1512
01:56:28,590 --> 01:56:29,800
You do it.

1513
01:56:30,460 --> 01:56:31,590
What will you do?

1514
01:56:34,840 --> 01:56:36,760
I'm going to talk to Sid Hudgens.

1515
01:56:37,510 --> 01:56:40,140
Compliment him on his
performance at the Victory Motel.

1516
01:56:40,390 --> 01:56:42,560
Remember, Bud, we need evidence.

1517
01:56:43,770 --> 01:56:45,230
I'll get the evidence.

1518
01:56:57,780 --> 01:56:58,780
Are you okay?

1519
01:57:01,540 --> 01:57:02,540
You okay?

1520
01:57:13,220 --> 01:57:15,180
Bud hates himself for what he did.

1521
01:57:16,470 --> 01:57:18,470
I know how he feels.

1522
01:57:20,810 --> 01:57:23,640
I need to know what you
can give me on Dudley Smith.

1523
01:57:25,730 --> 01:57:28,150
He's a police captain
in business with Patchett.

1524
01:57:28,810 --> 01:57:30,360
I've never heard of him.

1525
01:57:34,570 --> 01:57:36,160
Do you have a place to stay?

1526
01:57:37,910 --> 01:57:39,410
I'll be okay.

1527
01:57:46,040 --> 01:57:48,380
Nobody goes in without official I.D.

1528
01:57:53,090 --> 01:57:54,760
It's okay. Let him through.

1529
01:57:58,340 --> 01:57:59,720
What happened?

1530
01:58:00,260 --> 01:58:03,270
Someone beat him to death,
and stole a bunch of files.

1531
01:58:03,520 --> 01:58:05,520
Must have dug up garbage
on the wrong guy.

1532
01:58:05,930 --> 01:58:07,900
We got it narrowed down
to 1000 suspects.

1533
01:58:09,190 --> 01:58:10,480
Sergeant White...

1534
01:58:11,440 --> 01:58:13,070
dispatch got a call for you.

1535
01:58:13,320 --> 01:58:16,360
Lieutenant Exley wants you
to meet him at the Victory Motel.

1536
01:58:50,310 --> 01:58:51,900
You wanted to meet here?

1537
01:58:53,980 --> 01:58:57,030
- You called it. I thought Hudgens was...
- Hudgens is dead.

1538
01:59:08,460 --> 01:59:10,000
Let's get out of here.

1539
01:59:17,420 --> 01:59:18,800
It's too late.

1540
02:00:08,310 --> 02:00:10,390
You figured it was a set-up
but came anyway?

1541
02:00:10,640 --> 02:00:12,650
A lot of bad stuff happened here.

1542
02:00:13,190 --> 02:00:15,400
It's as good a place as any
for it to end.

1543
02:00:25,700 --> 02:00:26,740
Clip.

1544
02:00:31,870 --> 02:00:34,580
All I ever wanted
was to measure up to my father.

1545
02:00:35,670 --> 02:00:36,670
Now's your chance.

1546
02:00:39,340 --> 02:00:41,170
He died in the line of duty, didn't he?

1547
02:02:40,830 --> 02:02:42,040
Goddamn it!

1548
02:03:42,190 --> 02:03:43,190
You okay?

1549
02:03:43,810 --> 02:03:45,020
Yeah.

1550
02:04:03,540 --> 02:04:05,540
Come on. Easy.

1551
02:04:12,300 --> 02:04:13,300
Move!

1552
02:04:35,950 --> 02:04:37,370
Rollo Tomasi.

1553
02:04:40,830 --> 02:04:42,210
Who is he?

1554
02:04:43,040 --> 02:04:44,120
You are.

1555
02:04:46,420 --> 02:04:48,250
You're the guy who gets away with it.

1556
02:04:52,380 --> 02:04:53,470
Jack knew it.

1557
02:04:53,720 --> 02:04:55,010
And so do I.

1558
02:05:20,740 --> 02:05:22,450
Are you going to shoot me...

1559
02:05:23,750 --> 02:05:24,790
or arrest me?

1560
02:05:31,170 --> 02:05:32,420
Good lad.

1561
02:05:33,260 --> 02:05:35,180
Always the politician.

1562
02:05:35,800 --> 02:05:37,640
Let me do the talking.

1563
02:05:38,260 --> 02:05:41,310
After I'm done, they'll make you
Chief of Detectives.

1564
02:06:09,170 --> 02:06:10,880
Hold up your badge...

1565
02:06:11,170 --> 02:06:13,090
so they'll know you're a policeman.

1566
02:07:03,640 --> 02:07:06,480
You think you can talk
your way out of this, Lieutenant?

1567
02:07:09,100 --> 02:07:10,270
No...

1568
02:07:10,520 --> 02:07:12,110
but I can tell the truth.

1569
02:07:13,150 --> 02:07:14,980
During our investigation...

1570
02:07:16,110 --> 02:07:19,200
of events surrounding
the Nite Owl case...

1571
02:07:20,280 --> 02:07:23,700
Jack Vincennes, Bud White
and I learned the following:

1572
02:07:24,450 --> 02:07:26,910
Your golden boy's
throwing his whole life away.

1573
02:07:27,160 --> 02:07:28,660
The 3 Nite Owl suspects...

1574
02:07:29,620 --> 02:07:32,080
while guilty of
kidnapping and rape...

1575
02:07:32,880 --> 02:07:35,880
were innocent of the
multiple homicides at the Nite Owl.

1576
02:07:37,260 --> 02:07:39,170
The gunmen were most likely...

1577
02:07:39,430 --> 02:07:44,180
Los Angeles police officers
Michael Breuning and William Carlisle...

1578
02:07:44,430 --> 02:07:45,890
and a third man...

1579
02:07:46,600 --> 02:07:50,230
who may or may not have been
Captain Dudley Smith.

1580
02:07:51,310 --> 02:07:52,770
The objective:

1581
02:07:53,730 --> 02:07:56,360
The elimination of
another police officer...

1582
02:07:56,610 --> 02:07:58,400
Richard Stensland...

1583
02:07:59,320 --> 02:08:04,280
who, along with former LAPD officer
Leland " Buzz" Meeks...

1584
02:08:05,370 --> 02:08:09,080
also committed multiple homicides
on behalf of Captain Smith...

1585
02:08:09,750 --> 02:08:11,330
and then betrayed him...

1586
02:08:11,620 --> 02:08:13,830
over 25 pounds of heroin...

1587
02:08:14,960 --> 02:08:16,800
the retrieval of which...

1588
02:08:17,090 --> 02:08:20,130
was the ultimate motivation
behind the Nite Owl killings.

1589
02:08:23,340 --> 02:08:26,600
Beginning with the incarceration
of Mickey Cohen...

1590
02:08:27,010 --> 02:08:31,940
Capt. Smith has been assuming control
of organized crime in Los Angeles.

1591
02:08:33,810 --> 02:08:37,520
This includes the assassinations
of Mickey Cohen lieutenants...

1592
02:08:38,110 --> 02:08:41,280
the systematic blackmail
of city officials...

1593
02:08:42,910 --> 02:08:47,450
and the murders of Susan Lefferts,
Pierce Patchett, Sid Hudgens...

1594
02:08:48,870 --> 02:08:50,950
and Sergeant Jack Vincennes.

1595
02:08:54,210 --> 02:08:57,040
Captain Smith admitted as much to me...

1596
02:08:57,670 --> 02:08:59,590
before I shot him...

1597
02:08:59,960 --> 02:09:01,760
at the Victory Motel.

1598
02:09:03,970 --> 02:09:05,090
That's it.

1599
02:09:10,020 --> 02:09:12,020
The press will have a field day.

1600
02:09:13,640 --> 02:09:15,060
Christ!

1601
02:09:15,310 --> 02:09:17,610
It'll stain the Department for years.

1602
02:09:17,860 --> 02:09:18,860
Decades.

1603
02:09:20,070 --> 02:09:22,650
If we can get the kid to play ball...

1604
02:09:23,700 --> 02:09:25,490
who's to say what happened?

1605
02:09:26,620 --> 02:09:29,080
Maybe Dudley Smith died a hero.

1606
02:09:29,330 --> 02:09:31,910
- Good idea.
- Lf we get the press to play.

1607
02:09:39,750 --> 02:09:42,460
Want to tell me what
you're smiling about?

1608
02:09:47,930 --> 02:09:49,180
A hero.

1609
02:09:49,810 --> 02:09:51,470
How'd he know what we said?

1610
02:09:51,720 --> 02:09:53,350
He couldn't have heard us.

1611
02:09:57,190 --> 02:09:59,060
In this situation...

1612
02:09:59,440 --> 02:10:01,360
you'll need more than one.

1613
02:10:08,320 --> 02:10:13,200
It is my pleasure to present this award
to Detective Lieutenant Edmund Exley...

1614
02:10:13,830 --> 02:10:15,870
two-time Medal of Valor recipient.

1615
02:10:26,090 --> 02:10:30,050
Next year the LAPD
will move into its new facility.

1616
02:10:30,430 --> 02:10:32,100
With leaders like Edmund Exley...

1617
02:10:32,350 --> 02:10:35,430
the image of fat cops stealing apples
will be left behind...

1618
02:10:35,680 --> 02:10:39,560
and Los Angeles will finally
have the police force it deserves.

1619
02:10:53,490 --> 02:10:55,580
You just couldn't resist.

1620
02:10:55,870 --> 02:10:58,420
They're using me.
So for a while, I'm using them.

1621
02:11:00,460 --> 02:11:01,540
Come on.

1622
02:11:36,450 --> 02:11:37,750
Thanks for the push.

1623
02:11:59,560 --> 02:12:01,560
Congratulations, Lieutenant Exley.

1624
02:12:04,900 --> 02:12:06,980
Some men get the world...

1625
02:12:07,480 --> 02:12:11,070
others get ex-hookers
and a trip to Arizona.

1626
