00:00You
00:13Got security for the president's visit. I was shorthanded as it is. So until further notice
00:22All days off and vacations are hereby canceled
00:31Before I get to the last item, I'd like to interject a personal observation
00:36Seems that we've reached a new low graffiti wise
00:39in both the men's and women's
00:43lavatory
00:47Organization of mature men and women I suggest that we
00:52Clean up our eyes
00:54Our vocabulary at the very least
01:01The anonymous bathroom poet breasts is generally spelled be are he
01:18All right last item a
01:21Belka's collar the other day turned out not to be the rapists
01:25Increase patrols in the area. We have three more daylight attacks over the last day and a half
01:32Let's add Waverly and Clark Hill and rank go to the park
01:37What this animal yesterday
01:42Let's roll let's be careful
01:54I
02:09Know I know you want to know about a new partner and you want to know about your transfer to plan close
02:15Catch me later
02:16Sergeant you got a deal with us. It's not going away. It's not what you think. I give you my word
02:22I talked to the captain today in the meantime. I expect you both to go right on serving your fellow, man
02:31Okay cowboy you heard the man got that cowboy
02:52I
03:22You
03:52I
04:18Thought I smell that tobacco blend of yours
04:22What is that stuff it's called Dutchman's gold my tobacconist imports it from Indonesia
04:28Great aroma, huh? You might start thinking about Indonesia Frank some little dugout up in the bamboo if I were you I'd consider it
04:36Why is that Oh Judas priest Frank
04:39You've got the commander-in-chief on the front burner and you're standing around here with your pants down around your support hose
04:44So the words out is it the word?
04:46Hell, I know it. You know it every geek with a wild hair knows
04:53No go on I don't support the man's gutless politics, but he is the chief executive
04:59Security plans are already in the works Howard. I'm sure you'll be notified in due course
05:06Blowing brown smoke at me Frank
05:14What is the operational tableau it's still tentative Howard
05:19But
05:21They'll most likely land the chopper in the south end of st. James Park from there they'll proceed on foot into the avenues
05:29You know, it's a wonder they can buckle their chinstraps much less run a government
05:33Frank a Steyr SSG hits from a thousand yards and they're common as dirt. I don't wear that hard Frank
05:39Look around here. You got your tenements both occupied and empty. You got your commercials both occupied and empty
05:45Oh well within that range Judas priest you're inviting any misfit with a sniper's mentality to take a whack at the chief executive Howard
05:53Could you have some people in this precinct aren't even American citizens? They're illegal foreign perverts and malcontents
06:00They don't even use our language
06:03Howard could you sum this up for me? I'm running late
06:05Give the order Frank and I'll have the entire precinct evacuated in 18 hours
06:11You won't find a cockroach between here and the reservoir Howard
06:14The whole idea is for the president to meet the public
06:18Review conditions appear himself
06:21Demonstrate his concern for the disadvantaged. He can't do that Howard if you evacuate the population
06:27Folly Frank pure and senseless folly. No Howard politics. Who knows? Maybe some good will come of it. I do appreciate your input
06:44I
07:01Sister and her husband live in a brownstone. He paid two hundred thousand bucks for
07:05You ought to see it. He's got his taste in his kidneys, man
07:09But when I asked him to lend me a lousy five grand at 12% the nerd looks me right in the eye and says
07:16John your family. What can I do? I'm cash poor. Yeah, man, I can identify with that
07:23Difference is my brother-in-law's got a half a million in rolling stock sitting in the middle of his parking lot
07:28That's a seven-digit credit line. Thanks
07:31All I know man is that you got a cut it loose
07:34Or you never get peaceful like me
07:37You take my camera man. Look at us. You're an ex-jock one good knee
07:41I'm a 34 year old hot dog living in a two-room efficiency
07:45I got a closet full of clothes. My car is financed up the wazoo and I got a 38 strapped to my ankle
07:51What is it at?
07:52Gee, man, you know, I was in a good mood just two minutes ago
08:04I
08:34I
08:36I
09:01Time for once I'm impressed. Yeah. Come on. Let's get it done
09:06Yeah, let's do it
09:36I
10:06I
10:33Take it easy take it easy. I'm undercover
10:36All of us check my back pocket regular undercover convention down here
10:48McAfee detective sergeant
10:54Out of the vision
10:57Congratulations
10:59Just screwed up an entire operation
11:01No way man, you saved that one for the folks downtown
11:05Put the bracelets on you want to screw up some more put the bracelets on sergeant
11:13You're an intelligent man
11:18Yeah, oh
11:22Go on you want
11:2750 grand half is yours
11:29If you're as intelligent as I think you are. I
11:33Think it's time you learn the facts of life
11:36There was in a copper division above the rank of sergeant who isn't into some very serious money
11:49Okay, then we go
12:03I lost the sucker. I got a good look at him though. You read him. He's right. Yeah, he read me his rights
12:17It's cool babe, we'll nail them next time out. Okay? Yeah. Yeah, I guess so
12:28Okay, okay, let's move it
12:32Okay, okay, take a seat chief. I want my phone call when the lawyer down here first we booked then you call sit down
12:40I got some antacids downstairs you mind
12:45So I look a little peaky do you always I'll be right back
12:57Fairly how's it going? All right
13:02I
13:33Don't think he's gonna have time to visit buildings on
13:35From what I know of the president's itinerary
13:38I don't think he's gonna have time to visit buildings on Bud Turf and Shamrock
13:45Yeah, I kind of figured that you were gonna say something like that so let me just come right to the point, okay
13:50No tour no treaty, you know, I got a deal with the Catholic Urban Coalition. I don't even have to be here
13:58You know, we didn't want to parlay with you hoagies in the first place, you know, man, please
14:03if we're all willing to bend a little you said we were here to negotiate a treaty but all this white
14:11Meat's trying to do is suck canal water man. The president is on a very tight schedule
14:17Visiting to ghetto dwellings would be a duplication of effort
14:22Man's got a point boys
14:24He's seen one rat see them all. Okay, look look. I
14:28I
14:30Cannot believe that there aren't mutualities of interest to be explored here
14:38Mutual I'm sorry mutualities of interest as for instance in the Jefferson Avenue basketball court
14:46What about the court boundaries dummy boundaries the line between the blood and the shamrock runs through midcourt
14:55That's true, he's got a gentleman what I think mr. Abdul Hasim is trying to explain is that the boundary in question
15:04Prohibits full court play. Yes. Look it's very simple. You see you give us full court and
15:11We'll let the president cross our turf to get to you
15:16See, this is a problem with full court. See they won't you stop bringing in like that frag
15:21Check radio, I'm telling you monkey

15:34Think I did I'll tell you what we're gonna give you Mondays and Fridays for a month a month
15:39You're gonna give us a month Mickey. You know what? I think we just gonna have to take that court off your hands
15:47How about
15:49One month with an option for a second month

24:19Never forget that and you better not either
24:29I
24:59I
25:18Hello is Debbie there. Well, hi, this is Mick Belker
25:24Mick Belker Rose Belker's son. Didn't your mother warn you I'd be calling
25:31Mothers
25:33Well, I
25:36Think your mom told my mom that you were expecting me to call you for a date. So I
25:41Know you don't need a date. You probably get dates up the wazoo. I
25:47Didn't mean it the way it sounded that's just the police expression. Could you hold on for just a minute, please?
25:54I
26:05Debbie I know you're probably busy. I'm just calling to get it over with
26:12You're not busy
26:16Why do you want to do that this week
26:20Pick me up. I got my own car
26:25No
26:29The neighborhood's a little hairy cab might not want to come up here, right?
26:35I'm
26:37Looking forward to it, too
26:39All right
26:40Yes, we're coordinating security for the president's walking tour
26:45Now I'm not taking a cheap shot Dave, but this precinct is operating at less than full strength
26:50We've got two fresh homicides and boy is this rotten
26:56No, sorry, not you Dave a letter. I just received
27:01All I'm saying is that with 11 men out with the flu on top of everything else I got a real blip it on my
27:07hands
27:10Yeah, we'll do the best we can thanks
27:13No dice. The only extra body they're sending us is the police decorator again. I don't understand why Phil doesn't like her
27:20Donnie woman
27:22Faye Farrello, please
27:24Ray, would you excuse me? Just a second? Sure
27:29Are you all right Frank? Yeah. Yeah, I just have to make a personal call
27:36Faye this is really the lowest
27:40What do you think I got a Swiss bank account with a million bucks squirreled away, yeah, well, let me tell you something fake
27:51I
27:55Let her
27:56Can they really do what he says garnish your wages? No
28:00There are laws that protect you from that sort of thing. Then what the hell is she trying to do? I
28:05Think she's trying to bully you into paying more child support. I'm broke
28:09I don't have any more and even if I did that kind of thing is blackmail, isn't it?
28:14There are two kinds of divorces Frank
28:16In one kind a couple breaks up splits the property works out the custody of the kids
28:23And goes their separate ways in the other kind the two people break up split the property work out the custody of the kids
28:30And then continue to scratch at all the problems that itch them in their marriage
28:34The only difference is they do it long distance between their lawyers
28:39What kind of divorce do you have?
28:42What should I do
28:45Well, you can respond with a lawyer's letter of your own but that will necessitate a response from her lawyer
28:51Etc. Etc at infinitum and the only people who will get your money will be the letter writers
28:58Or the two of you can sit down like two adults and review the situation I'm extended to the limit as it is
29:08Have you gotten a raise in those two years
29:10Just cost of living as Faye
29:15All right, I surrender I don't talk to her
29:21Don't do it for me Frank do it for your son and yourself
29:33You've made a hell of a marriage counselor counselor
29:36Remember this bracelet
29:40Got it in that little antique shop. Mm-hmm first weekend we ever spent together Oh
29:51Gold suits you to have important
29:55I love you
29:58And I love that bracelet
30:01But it's not doing either if it's any good sitting on my wrist
30:05No, no, no
30:08I'd knock my watch before I let you do that. Can I offer you alone?
30:16I
30:19Don't know
30:21Can I offer you alone
30:27Understand something Joyce if my son needed an operation or something like that, I'd jump on your offer in a second
30:35But you're right this is between Faye and me and I don't want you in the middle
30:46I see you tonight
30:49Can you promise you won't run out on me when that buzzer goes off I
30:54Don't want to promise something I might not be able to deliver
30:58Fair enough
31:00Let me think about it and call you later
31:04They love you moneybags
