00:30All right, move.
00:44Fine, let's go.
00:45You sure?
00:45I stood up fine, let's go.
01:00You all right?
01:18Yeah, yeah, I'm getting used to it.
01:25Let's go.
01:30Let's go.
02:00Let's go.
02:30Let's go.
02:59Let's go.
03:00Let's go.
03:01Let's go.
03:02Let's go.
03:03Let's go.
03:04Yeah, yesterday afternoon, the fire marshal declared an arson.
03:08The M.E. made the fireman's death a homicide.
03:11So it's our case?
03:12Yeah, the marshal was investigating as an informant who says he knows a way to get to the torch through a bartender who's a low-rent drug dealer.
03:20The fire marshal reached out to the fire marshal.
03:21The fire marshal reached out to the chief of detectives for an undercover to buy into the bartender.
03:26They're sending someone over from OCCB.
03:28Vinnie Greco's, Vinnie Greco's, the fire marshal.
03:29Vinnie Greco's, the fire marshal's office.
03:33Who are we getting on undercover?
03:34Who are we getting on undercover?
03:38I don't know.
03:39The chief of D's put it together.
03:40Gentlemen!
03:41I'm Jerry Hauser, fire marshal's office.
03:45Yeah, Arthur Fancy, Bobby Simone, James Martinus.
03:48What's happening?
03:49He says you two know each other?
03:51Bet we do.
03:52How's it going, Ben?
03:53You can't fancy me.
03:54We're like childhood chums.
03:56So, he says he's got a way to the torch?
03:59No, I can get you to the bartender who got the torch burn medicine.
04:03You want the torch, you gotta close that deal yourself.
04:06The bartender's name is Curtis Cangelosi, a skill, a small-time dealer.
04:11Got big.
04:12So, day after the fire, I'm in a bar, Rossano's, where Cangelosi's mixing drinks.
04:19I'm making a deposit in the laboratory when the door opens.
04:23Now, out of habit, I lift my feet up in the store so the incoming party's unaware I'm dumping out.
04:28In walks Cangelosi with this fella, Tony, and Tony's thanking Curtis for some burn medicine Curtis got.
04:36Schmoozing around in the subsequent back and forth, I can't move this bartender for more specifics on Tony.
04:45But I hear inklings from other acquaintances that this guy sets fires.
04:51Which strikes me a credible explanation how his fingers got burnt and how my path crossed here with Marshal, uh...
04:58Hauser.
04:59You want us to buy into the bartender and pop him?
05:02Buy into him for some coke, that's right, to leverage him on ID'ing the torch.
05:06Okay.
05:07It's our homicide now.
05:09We'll back up your undercover and then conduct the interviews.
05:13So, um...
05:14Who's the undercover?
05:15She's supposed to be here.
05:17As soon as she gets here, you can move.
05:18It's a pleasure, Arthur.
05:21James, James.
05:22Thanks a lot.
05:24So, uh...
05:25Hey, you fellas, you want some refreshments?
05:27Hey, hey.
05:28Where you going?
05:29What?
05:30No under-refreshments.
05:31Very big of you to offer, though, Vinnie.
05:33I always look.
05:34If there's a coin cup or something, I'm happy to contribute.
05:41You get the license of that truck to hit you?
05:44We were just talking to the wheel man.
05:46No.
05:47Lou gave you that china?
05:48I'm telling you, Bobby.
05:49You're supposed to be working on footwork timing.
05:52Yeah.
05:53We get into that ring, it's like World War III.
05:55I feel like I'm boxing Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
05:57What, you talk to him about it?
05:58I'm afraid if I complain, he'll hit me again.
06:03Good morning, Sarge.
06:04Mr. and Mrs. Delgado, it's a little early, but, uh, I guess we can head over, huh?
06:18I want my wife to talk to you about the trial.
06:21Now, remember, I explained, this isn't the trial today.
06:24This is what we call the Wade hearing on how you ID'd the suspects.
06:28My wife is afraid.
06:30What are you afraid of, Mr. Delgado?
06:33If these robbers will kill our dog just to frighten us, what will they do to me if I say in court they were who did the robbery?
06:42Uh, see, we couldn't prove that Burke and Gallagher murdered their dog.
06:47It was them, telling me not to testify that they had robbed us.
06:52I believe you, Mrs. Delgado, I'm just saying that we couldn't prove it.
06:56But I went and I talked to these guys, didn't I?
06:58And we moved away.
07:00And I understand that they haven't been in touch with you since then.
07:03I-I'm afraid now they will come to harm us.
07:07I reminded her what you said about doing the right thing as citizens.
07:11But she is worried.
07:12She doesn't want these men to find us.
07:16After the hearing this morning, after you've told them how you made the IDs in a week, this case is going to trial.
07:23If it'll make you feel better, I can put you in a hotel between now and then.
07:26No.
07:28No hotel.
07:29Mrs. Delgado, this hearing is part of what's going to put these men in jail.
07:34And afterwards, if you want me to ride you home.
07:36No, we have a car.
07:38It's a good thing you're doing here.
07:40You should be proud of yourself.
07:43You should be real proud of your wife.
07:48You ready to go over there?
07:54Okay.
07:55What's your name?
08:22John.
08:23John.
08:24You wearing fruit juice?
08:26I do use a scented soap by Karl Lagerfeld, if you know who that is.
08:30No, I don't know, but now I know what this Lagerfeld guy smells like.
08:35Can I help you?
08:36Detective Russell, I'm from OCCB.
08:38I'm supposed to see a fire marshal Hauser or Lieutenant Fancy.
08:41Yeah, the meeting's over, but I'll let him know you're here.
08:44Bobby Simone.
08:45I'll be working back up with you.
08:47Diane Russell.
08:48Good to meet you, Diane.
08:49Where can I change?
08:50Locker room's right over there.
08:52Thanks.
08:53Mm-hmm.
08:54I gotta use the bathroom.
08:55Hold it.
08:56Hold it.
08:57When I turn around blink your lights if you can hear me.
09:14When I turn around, blink your lights if you can hear me.
09:26Maxine!
09:28I'm going to dream about where that mic is hit on you tonight.
09:32Shut up. I don't need to hear anything from you until we're inside.
09:35Roger, 10-4, no problem.
09:39Case!
09:40Booth one available.
09:42Hey, Vinnie.
09:44Curtis, this is my friend Diane. She's down from Stampton.
09:49Pleased to meet you.
09:50You too.
09:53I'll have a bloody Maria. Make it with gold.
09:57Curtis, no. You got that Herodora stuff. Make it with that.
10:02So, what do you think of my friend here?
10:05You know, I'm very large in Connecticut.
10:07Yeah, I'd say your friend deserves better than to be in this place.
10:10Yeah, I know, but I wanted a sample of flavor of the neighborhood.
10:14I have a family function later on over on Halston Street.
10:22Hey, Diane.
10:24Yeah?
10:25Maybe Curtis can help you out with that quandary you got.
10:28You got a quandary? I'm the guy you should talk to, Diane.
10:31Diane. I help a lot of people.
10:33Yeah. Bartenders take an oath, you know, like lifeguards.
10:37Vinnie, I don't even know Curtis.
10:41Well, he's a stand-up guy.
10:43Why aren't you a stand-up guy?
10:44Oh, yeah. All the way.
10:46You ask him.
10:49Me?
10:52Diane's looking to score some blow, you know, maybe half a lid.
10:57That's not all for me.
10:59I told my girlfriends I could get some because Vinnie here...
11:02Come on, come on.
11:03Yesterday, my guy, he zigs when he should have zagged.
11:06He left us high and dry.
11:07Yeah, I don't know.
11:11Well, if you can't, that's fine.
11:14I don't want to jam you up.
11:16You make a decent bloody Maria, Curtis.
11:24I'll have another one.
11:27I guess I could make a couple of calls.
11:31There you go, Curtis.
11:32Yeah?
11:33Yeah.
11:34Cool.
11:37See?
11:42Number two.
11:43Okay.
11:44Thanks.
11:45That was interesting.
12:07You sample it?
12:15Uh, no.
12:16I don't use.
12:17And, uh...
12:18Here's your change.
12:19There's only 400.
12:21You're gonna get rich that way, Curtis.
12:23Yeah, well, this was just a favor.
12:25So, uh...
12:26Hey, get off for eight.
12:27How long do you think your family reunion's gonna go?
12:29Uh, I'm not sure.
12:31Oh, what am I?
12:32Upholstery?
12:32I was thinking maybe I could buy you a drink.
12:34You know, um, I'll tell you what.
12:36If I get done over there, then I'll stop in.
12:38I think you made an impression on Curtis.
12:40Well, if this has my number at the bar, I'm at home.
12:43Okay, thanks.
12:44And, uh, if it doesn't work out for tonight, maybe I could drive up to Sanford sometime.
12:49I know a place that makes a hell of a bloody Maria.
12:51All right, thanks, Curtis.
12:53The man's in love!
12:55Curtis, be good!
12:56Yeah, I'll see you, Vinny.
12:58Here we go.
12:59Let's take a minute.
13:00Curtis, police officers, you're nervous.
13:10Don't move.
13:11What for?
13:12Put your hands up there.
13:14Talk about the station.
13:15What did I do?
13:19Yeah, what did I do?
13:20Come on, come on.
13:24Stop.
13:30D.A.'s agreed not to charge him on the sale if Cangellosi cooperates.
13:43He'll deal.
13:43Yeah, he should.
13:44He's no hard ass.
13:46How did we notice Cangellosi's the wrong guy?
13:49That's the information I got from the informant.
13:51I just checked the BCI.
13:52He's got no record.
13:54Maybe he beat us a few times.
13:55He's never been arrested.
13:56Not even a speeding ticket.
13:58Record or no record.
13:59Okay, we got a homicide to clear.
14:01If Cangellosi's clean, like you say, I'm sure he'll cooperate.
14:05How about if he doesn't cooperate?
14:07Then we hung a felony on a legitimate guy.
14:10Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
14:11I'm not ahead of myself.
14:13I don't like turning innocent people into criminals.
14:15How many model citizens you know can get their hands on half an ounce of cocaine in 20 minutes?
14:20If Cangellosi cooperates, fine.
14:22But if he doesn't give the other guy up, I'm not going to testify against him at a trial.
14:26Well, now that we know your future plans, Detective Russell, how about you and Detective Simone go flip this guy so we don't wind up in that box, all right?
14:35Well, I don't think I'm going to give you too many lines in this interview.
14:48That's a good idea.
14:51Yeah, because, uh, well, you might pull your piece and try to break this guy out.
14:55So, Curtis, like I told you, in the car you can have an attorney present if you want.
15:13But before you decide that, I want you to know what we got and how maybe you can do yourself some good.
15:18But I told you, I've never sold drugs in my life I don't even use.
15:24Yeah, well, you sold today.
15:25I did you a favor.
15:28I can't believe this.
15:29I get picked up for doing a favor?
15:31See, you call it doing a favor.
15:32We call it one to three in the state penitentiary.
15:35I don't believe this.
15:38Why'd you do this to me?
15:39You want to know what happened?
15:43I'll tell you what happened.
15:45She walked into the bar that...
15:48Her and that Vinny.
15:50Was he part of setting me up?
15:51Vinny's in custody, Curtis.
15:53Anyways, she gives me some sob story.
15:56She needs some cocaine for her girlfriends.
15:58And I guess Vinny was trying to do her a favor.
16:00So, I tried to do her a favor.
16:03I make a phone call.
16:04Then, she wants me to go with her because she's scared.
16:07Then, she wants me to take the money and give it to the guy.
16:12I do everything she asks.
16:14I don't take a cent.
16:15I give her a hundred change because I'm such a big dealer.
16:18And I walked away.
16:19Yeah, that's how it happened.
16:21That's a felony.
16:23All right.
16:24You help us out.
16:27Maybe.
16:29Maybe we're in a position to help you.
16:31Maybe you're looking at a suspended sentence.
16:34Come on, sit down.
16:37Help you out how?
16:42We're looking at a guy who committed a crime that resulted in a death.
16:45You can help us make our case.
16:48What guy?
16:49Your friend Tony, who had his hand burned last week.
16:52Tony Medici?
16:54He sells mini blinds.
16:56Curtis, when he came in with his hands burned the other night, when he got you to bring
17:00him some burn medicine, Tony got his hands burned, tortured in a building.
17:04Now, firemen died in that fire.
17:06That's murder, Curtis.
17:07That's what your friend Tony did.
17:09He said it was a hot water heater.
17:11We want you to get Tony talking on tape about the fires he set, Curtis.
17:15That's your way out of this.
17:17I'm not going to set up a friend of mine.
17:23That's what you do, not me.
17:25Now, you're in a situation here.
17:27Your way out is to cooperate.
17:31Now, if it turns out that this Tony didn't do it, and you cooperated so that we could find
17:35that out, I think you'd still be looking at a walk.
17:40I'm going to give you a little time to think about this.
17:42You want something to eat?
17:45We'll get you something.
18:02Go on over to Ray's.
18:03You want something?
18:04Yeah, I want the entire menu, but the answer's no.
18:09I've got to lose a couple of pounds for this wedding.
18:13Detective, I'm too.
18:20Zipwoods.
18:25All right.
18:26All right, take it easy.
18:27Take it easy, Mr. Delgado.
18:29I'll be right there.
18:32James.
18:32Those sons of bitches grabbed that woman.
18:35I'll be right there.
18:36I'll be right there.
18:36I'll be right there.
18:36I'll be right there.
18:36I'll be right there.
18:37I'll be right there.
18:37I'll be right there.
18:38I'll be right there.
18:38I'll be right there.
18:39I'll be right there.
18:40I'll be right there.
18:40I'll be right there.
18:41I'll be right there.
18:41I'll be right there.
18:42I'll be right there.
18:42I'll be right there.
18:43I'll be right there.
18:44I'll be right there.
18:45I'll be right there.
18:46I'll be right there.
18:47I'll be right there.
18:48I'll be right there.
18:49I'll be right there.
18:50I'll be right there.
18:51I'll be right there.
18:52I'll be right there.
18:53I'll be right there.
19:54There you go.
20:18Come on.
20:26You're going to tell if I have another wine for you?
20:27I didn't see anything.
20:28I don't mean to put you in a position.
20:32No, you're not.
20:32How long have you been doing this?
20:42Uh, three years.
20:43I used to work undercover, you know, on a couple of cases.
20:49It was just for a couple of days at a time.
20:51I know it's a whole lot different when you have a permanent assignment.
20:57It grinds, being under all the time.
21:00Yeah.
21:00You know, I didn't mind taking down the bad guys.
21:05Even the ones I liked, I took them down too.
21:08But then, um, after a while you start asking yourself, how much of what these guys have done is my doing?
21:19I mean, would they even be here if I didn't put them here and...
21:24I don't know.
21:26And then something like this, like a totally legitimate guy...
21:32No, you see, but I think this guy is not going to go down.
21:37Seriously, I think he's going to help us out.
21:38Well, if he does, he's going to help me, because I'll go on suspension before I go on the witness stand against this guy.
21:50Enough's enough.
21:55You should get back.
22:08Have a seat.
22:32Up the slats.
22:34No, I can't eat.
22:35So you and this Tony go way back, huh?
22:40We were kids in the same neighborhood.
22:44You know, when you were sitting here talking about him before, it reminded me of this buddy of mine.
22:49Guy from the neighborhood.
22:51We were very tight when we were kids.
22:53About a couple of months back, he gets all jammed up.
22:56I help him out.
22:58A week later, he's in another jam.
23:02Curtis.
23:03I had to realize that he was not the kid that I knew anymore.
23:08I'm not going to wear a wire.
23:11You understand that?
23:12You're trying to do the right thing.
23:14We all want to do that.
23:15How's what you people did to me the right thing?
23:18Oh, Curtis.
23:19We can sit here and we can all disagree about what happened to you, but I'm going to tell you something right now.
23:23This does not have to end up with you in jail.
23:26Now, we are doing what we can to see that that doesn't happen.
23:29But I want you to think about something.
23:33An innocent man was killed in this fire.
23:35He died for doing his job.
23:39Now, this buddy of yours, Tony, he told you what?
23:42That he got his hands burned on some hot water heater?
23:45Right?
23:45You believe that?
23:47Yeah, I do.
23:48Mm-hmm.
23:48If you went and you talked to him and you wound up feeling different about the way he got those burns,
23:56then I would expect you to feel different about talking to us.
23:59Now, I'm not saying that you wear a wire on him.
24:01I'm not saying that you give him up.
24:03All I'm saying is that you might think differently about giving up an address.
24:06On the other hand, you walk out that door there and you happen to see your friend Tony
24:12and you wound up absolutely convinced that he had nothing to do with this,
24:16then I wouldn't expect to see you again.
24:19What do you mean when I walk out that door?
24:22Are you letting me go?
24:23Well, there's no charge that's been filed against you yet, Curtis.
24:27I'm not saying it won't be.
24:28I'm not saying they won't decide to file later on down the line.
24:31But for right now, yeah, you're free to go.
24:32I don't know what exactly you want.
24:42I want you to do what your conscience tells you to do.
24:51You don't want that pizza.
24:52You're free to go.
25:02I took guts.
25:07I took a shot, Ray.
25:09How do you let that guy walk?
25:12But you want this guy in the joint or you want to bring his buddy?
25:14We had leverage.
25:15No, we had squat.
25:17Now, that is a legitimate guy.
25:18You back him up against the wall, I guarantee you he'd do time before he gives up his friend.
25:24Marshall, look, I know that you lost one of your own here.
25:26I'm trying to make this work.
25:28I think this is how we should play it.
25:30Now, this guy doesn't come back.
25:31You want to reinstate charges?
25:32That's still a way we can go.
25:36You let me know what breaks.
25:37Absolutely.
25:38Why don't we go get a beer?
25:49Um, then I can decide how I feel about you saving my career here.
25:55Oh, Bobby, you give me a hand with something?
25:57Yeah, excuse me.
25:58What's up?
26:00Martinez and me found a Delgado woman's body all burnt up.
26:04Her teeth were all snapped out and her fingertips were cut off.
26:09It was Burke and Gallagher, those bastards she was going to testify against, grabbed her up.
26:14You want to go sit on the houses?
26:16Yeah.
26:17Yeah.
26:19Another time, huh?
26:20No problem.
26:22Nice working with you.
26:23Yeah.
26:24Yeah.
26:27Give me a second.
26:28I'm going to take a piss.
26:29I had her husband make her testify.
26:37That was her duty as a citizen.
26:39Good night.
26:59Thanks for going out there.
27:25Hey, no problem.
27:27Do you need any help on these interviews?
27:29I know these guys from working up the original case.
27:33Okay.
27:40Good morning, Marshal.
27:45Listen, since we can't get to the torch through the bartender,
27:48I say we set up a circumstantial arson-for-profit case against the building owner.
27:53I wouldn't quit on the torch, Marshal.
27:55And don't give up on this bartender yet.
27:57I think I'm not counting on the bartender, and I found my own way to the torch.
28:00Oh, yeah?
28:01Yeah.
28:01The building's owner is a guy named Martin Lasky.
28:03When the case was in my office, I ran a TRW check documenting all fire losses claimed by Lasky
28:09and other fires over the past ten years.
28:11I rechecked last night, and one of the other buildings is a joint ownership with a guy named Leo Medici.
28:19This Tony's his nephew.
28:21My guys are sitting on a couple of spots now trying to pick him up.
28:24You see, I ran a BCI check on Tony last night, and he's got no record.
28:29What are you telling me?
28:30You don't think he's a torch?
28:31Whoa.
28:32Well, I'm just giving you some information.
28:34Come on, let's get a couple of coffee.
28:35No, it's okay.
28:38I know where it's at.
28:46Morning, John.
28:48Hey.
28:48Can you, um, can you give me that OCCB number?
28:54Sure.
28:55One second.
28:59Hey.
29:00How's it going?
29:02All right.
29:02Yeah?
29:03I thought your boss would have you working on something else.
29:06Well, my boss thought you might want me to make another buy.
29:09Oh, yeah?
29:09Yeah.
29:11That's what I told him.
29:16Have a seat.
29:16Um, looks like we have another way of getting to this torch.
29:25What if, uh, Curtis doesn't come back?
29:27Detective, you still want that OCCB number?
29:29Oh, John, thanks.
29:33You know someone else at OCCB?
29:37No.
29:38Just you.
29:43That female undercover's got some moxie, huh?
29:46Yeah.
29:47Yeah.
29:49I, um, I'd be happy to pick her up if they let her out of her detail.
29:54Check with her command.
29:56She's had a 57 in for the last couple of months, trying to get out of undercover.
30:01I'll check with the chief of D's.
30:03See if it's got to be a one-for-one.
30:05I got him if you want to go change.
30:13Yeah, all right.
30:14Thanks, Greg.
30:15Yeah, no problem.
30:23Stand up.
30:24How'd you get that mud on your clothes?
30:35This, I don't know.
30:36Get your clothes off.
30:40Get your clothes off and put them on that chair.
30:48Pants, too.
30:48Police labs are going to analyze that dirt.
31:00They'll pinpoint exactly where it comes from.
31:04It comes from where that woman got burned.
31:07No.
31:07Did Gallagher kill that woman's dog?
31:13That's a separate matter.
31:14There's no charges on it.
31:15You just tell me the truth.
31:18Oh, no, I didn't.
31:18Did Gallagher kill that dog to frighten the Delgado so Mrs. Delgado wouldn't testify on seeing you guys rob her house?
31:28No.
31:28I'm giving you a chance to help yourself.
31:34Did Gallagher kill that woman like he killed that dog to stop her from testifying against him in the trial?
31:41No.
31:41No, he didn't do it.
31:44It wasn't him, and we wasn't scared of no trial.
31:46Who told you not to be scared, huh?
31:49It wasn't Gallagher.
31:51It was Gallagher.
31:52And you believe everything he tells you to believe, and you would do everything that he tells you to do.
31:58No, I don't always do what he tells me to do.
32:00Yeah?
32:01When was the last time you said no?
32:06Never mind.
32:17Let me tell you something, Burke.
32:19You and I both know Gallagher is smart.
32:22You and I both know that before anything happens to Gallagher, it's going to happen to you.
32:27Now, he'll set you up to be the patsy on this.
32:30Before that happens, you had better get some smarts of your own.
32:34I don't know.
32:34I don't know.
32:35No.
32:39...
32:39I don't know.
33:09You know what this is about, Gallagher, right?
33:15I'm not saying nothing, because I haven't done nothing.
33:18It's not about what you've done. It's about what your friend Burke did.
33:22I don't know nothing about that.
33:24I'm opening the door for you, Gallagher.
33:27Your friend's got half a brain.
33:30You strike me like maybe you're smart enough to step through the door I'm opening for you.
33:35And what door is that?
33:37Burke had dirt from the lot where that woman got burned all over his clothes.
33:43We know what he did to that woman, and we know that you were with him.
33:48I haven't seen Burke.
33:49I got evidence that puts you at the scene where Mrs. Delgado got murdered.
33:55I got a witness that saw you and Burke shove her in a car.
33:58Didn't see me. I wasn't there. I haven't seen Burke.
34:02Listen to me. I look at you, and I look at Burke.
34:08Burke's got that dirt all over his clothes, and on his hands, you got no dirt at all.
34:14Who do you think I think did this crime?
34:16If you know he did it, what do you need me for?
34:19I need a witness.
34:20And that'd be me.
34:24You want me to be a witness to what Burke did?
34:28Did you see him kill her, Gallagher?
34:30I'm trying to save your life on this.
34:33You think I'm a moron like him?
34:35You think I'm going to put myself at the scene?
34:37As a witness, I'm asking for a witness statement, not a confession.
34:42A witness statement.
34:47Sure.
34:49Like I don't know what acting in concert means.
34:52Like I don't know, just being there puts me away, too.
34:57I'm dealing with a real first-rate mind, aren't I?
35:03Good enough for you.
35:06Hey, James.
35:07Yeah?
35:08I'll talk to you a minute.
35:09Sure, man.
35:10Yeah, I think I'm going to take a pass on sparring tonight.
35:13Oh, yeah?
35:15Yeah, in fact, James, my schedule's getting pretty crowded.
35:18I think we better pass on working out together.
35:21All right.
35:22If that's what you want.
35:23Yeah.
35:24Thanks for working out with me.
35:25Yeah, I'm sorry things got rough in there a few times.
35:29Hey, we're different weight classes.
35:31You probably don't realize your own strength.
35:33Yeah.
35:33To tell you the truth, Lou, I sometimes felt like you got a little carried away.
35:38Well, I don't disagree.
35:40I don't think we should keep sparring.
35:42Okay.
35:43There's no problem.
35:45Hey, James.
35:46Yeah?
35:47You need a manager?
35:51Oh, uh, detective, there's a Curtis Cangulosi downstairs.
35:55He wants to talk to you.
35:56All right.
35:5715th, 10th squad, can I help you?
36:01Hey, who are you?
36:03Cangulosi.
36:03How's it going, Chris?
36:15Yeah.
36:16I'm back.
36:17And I talk with my friend.
36:19Come on upstairs and we'll talk.
36:21Am I under arrest?
36:23No, we just, uh, just wanted to hear what you got to say.
36:27That's all.
36:27You know how wrong you guys are?
36:29You know that all the grief you put me through was for nothing.
36:32What did Tony tell you?
36:33He was at that fire.
36:35You know why?
36:36He was pulling doors open, yelling for people in the apartment next door to get out.
36:40So why did he tell you he got burned by a water heater?
36:43Did you understand?
36:46He didn't tell me how he got burned.
36:49He just said he had an accident.
36:52I met it up before about the hot water heater.
36:54Why didn't he tell you the truth when he showed up with those burns, Curtis?
36:57Unless maybe he didn't want to put himself at the crime at all, because maybe he didn't just happen by there.
37:04Maybe he was there with his trusty gasoline cam like his uncle asked him to be.
37:08That's not what happened.
37:09Listen, this guy's my friend, and he explained what he was doing there.
37:16Curtis.
37:18What'd he say when you told him that we'd been talking to you?
37:21That's when he explained.
37:24And I'll tell you, after the ride you people gave me, I understand why he didn't go near you.
37:29Now, are you filing charges against me?
37:34No, no one's filed charges against you yet, Curtis.
37:37Thanks for your cooperation.
37:45I'm out of here.
37:54You're back here again, huh?
37:56Yeah.
37:56I told him, Tony.
37:57I told him why you were there.
38:05All right.
38:10Thanks, guys.
38:12I'm Detective Simone, Tony.
38:14This is Fire Marshal Hauser.
38:16Detective Russell.
38:16Now, your name has been brought up in an investigation into a fire last week on 7th Street.
38:23In what regard?
38:24Your Uncle Leo.
38:25He's the owner of that building?
38:27No.
38:28He's partners with Martin Lasky and some other buildings Lasky owns.
38:31So what?
38:32We got you at the scene, Tony.
38:35Leaving that building at the time the fires broke out.
38:38You guys brought back Curtis Cansel O.C. again, huh?
38:42You're the girl that tried to help out with that soda problem?
38:45Listen to me here, Tony.
38:46What are you people trying to do to this poor mutter?
38:48I wouldn't call him a mutter.
38:50He stood up pretty good for you.
38:52Did he explain what I was doing there?
38:53Oh, yeah.
38:54You were walking by your part-owner-uncle's building when it just happened to catch on fire
38:59and you burned your hands, knocking on door after door, trying to get people out.
39:03And that makes me a bad guy.
39:05Hell, no, it doesn't make you a bad guy, Tony.
39:07It just makes you a bad arsonist.
39:09That fire must have gone up before you were ready.
39:14All right.
39:15Here's what happened.
39:17One time.
39:19I'm standing up front of my house, which was downwind that night.
39:22I smell smoke.
39:24I see flames.
39:25So I get over there as quick as I can, see if I get some people out of there.
39:29Well, being there the way you were with all that heroic conduct,
39:32you could have helped out on that investigation.
39:34I'm sorry.
39:35I didn't see nothing.
39:36By the time I get there, the places I've gone.
39:38Well, how is it that you got your hands burned then, Tony?
39:41Exactly.
39:43I fell down after I kicked down the door.
39:45I don't know what I hit.
39:46You didn't get him dropping a match into a pool of gasoline?
39:50Look, I've come down here with those guys.
39:53I thought maybe I could be with some help.
39:55But I could see that's not going to be the case.
39:58Wait a minute.
39:59Where are you going?
40:01What, am I under arrest?
40:03No.
40:04Get out of here.
40:04Want something to eat now, Burke?
40:29Because if they get you down there, it might be a while before you're near any food.
40:35Without down where?
40:37Come on, Burke.
40:39Gallagher did just what we knew he was going to do.
40:42He gave you to us all the way.
40:45I'll tell you.
40:47He's got a nice eye for detail.
40:49How you cut off the dog's head and put it on their porch with him asking you not to.
40:56Chopping off that woman's fingers while she was still alive.
41:00Knocking her teeth out while she's screaming all the time for mercy.
41:05That's headline stuff, Burke.
41:07No, no, no, no.
41:08That's going to earn you an injection courtesy of my hero, Governor Pataki.
41:13He's lying.
41:13He's lying.
41:14You can only do it by injection now, huh?
41:16He's lying.
41:16Just like at the vet.
41:17He's lying.
41:18Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
41:22If I knock their teeth out, you should go ask Gallagher why he's got that lady's gold teeth in his apartment.
41:35Where in his apartment?
41:38He knocked her teeth out and he has them in a coffee can.
41:48Lieutenant, that half-wit Burke says Mrs. Delgado's teeth are over at Gallagher's apartment.
42:01That would give us enough corroboration to arrest.
42:04I'm going to get a search warrant authorization.
42:06Yeah.
42:07Yeah, I understand it.
42:07All right.
42:08Whatever you can do to help me out on this.
42:09Okay, I got to get back to you.
42:14Hey, what's going on, Curtis?
42:15Yeah.
42:16I want to tell you something, all right?
42:18Sure.
42:18Come on, sit down.
42:19I'm going to tell you something.
42:21I want you to tell Tony Medici something.
42:24Ask him a question.
42:25What's that?
42:27What?
42:27What do you want me to ask him?
42:30You ask him this.
42:32You ask...
42:33You ask him.
42:38Maybe I am a loser.
42:40Maybe I'm never going to be anything more than a bartender.
42:44What difference does it make where a loser like me makes drinks, right?
42:49But you ask him this.
42:51A, I never threatened a friend.
42:55Or called him a moron.
42:56Or told him that his life was garbage.
42:58Did Tony come to see you, Curtis?
43:00Because I don't have to think that my life is a waste.
43:04Is number one.
43:07I mean, it's pretty obvious that I don't always see every angle, right?
43:12I mean, I didn't realize that your pretty lady friend was a cop, right?
43:15And I tried to help her out.
43:17And I got hung up for that.
43:19And now I get called a $5 an hour loser and told that I got to leave town.
43:26Because I tried to do somebody a favor.
43:29And he thinks that I'm trying to jam him up.
43:32Screw him and screw New York.
43:34What happened, Curtis?
43:35Did he threaten you?
43:36I'll tell you something.
43:37I have been in several cities that I like as good as New York, with better weather.
43:45And you tell him, you tell him, if I'm such a loser, how come I'm going to be tending bars someplace where he can't find me?
43:55And he is where he is because of what him and his uncle did.
43:59Curtis, Curtis.
44:00What did he say?
44:04Let's just say that I don't really believe that he was there by accident.
44:10His uncle wasn't out of town.
44:14This time he said his uncle nearly died in that fire.
44:18He saved his uncle's life.
44:19It's going to help us, Curtis.
44:21I don't want to help anybody.
44:22That's how I get in trouble.
44:38What was that?
44:39That tortious uncle was supposed to be out of town.
44:42This is hearsay, but our bartender's got him in town at the fire with his hands burned.
44:47You got an address from my uncle?
44:49Yeah.
44:49Well, let's pick him up.
44:52Let's go.
44:52I read about people like you in books.
45:18Evil geniuses.
45:22I'm going to tell you the truth, Gallagher.
45:24I walked out of here before.
45:26I went to the lavatory and wept.
45:28That's how confused you had me.
45:31I'd be trying to move you.
45:33I'd come around the corner, and there you were, seven steps ahead of me.
45:39When am I going to get out of here?
45:40No, you don't get out.
45:42You don't get out, Gallagher.
45:44And I want a lawyer.
45:48Absolutely.
45:49I'm going to get you one of our top legal aid guys with gravy stains on his shirt, and I don't want you to say a word or in any way jeopardize your constitutional rights.
46:01Because a fellow like you, huh, that'll murder and burn a woman, cut the head off her dog, knock her teeth out, cut her fingers off.
46:15So she won't say how you broke into her house, where her and her husband are trying to live a decent life.
46:23A great man like you, Gallagher.
46:26A huge genius.
46:28To only be tripped up because besides being a scumbag psycho, you're a cheap piece of crap, and you keep this poor woman's gold teeth in an old coffee can.
46:42I want you to take full advantage of our legal resource.
46:47Now, you utter no word until your lawyer gets here.
46:50All I want you to do is to stare at this tooth that you gouged out of this woman's mouth.
46:58Are you looking at this, Gallagher, huh?
47:01Gallagher, are you looking at this?
47:03Do not say one word.
47:05You just nod your head.
47:08Are you looking at it, Gallagher?
47:10Oh, I'm going to get a migraine tonight because I didn't beat you.
47:22If I could just talk to the owner of the building, please.
47:40All right.
47:44Hey, Bobby.
47:45You need any help with the online booking report?
47:49No, thanks.
47:50I'm almost ready.
47:52Taking off?
47:54Yeah, I think so.
47:56Yeah, I'm going to take off until you have finished here.
48:00Well, if you can wait ten minutes, maybe we can grab some dinner together.
48:03Sure.
48:05I got ten minutes.
48:06Great.
48:08All right.
48:08Why am I sitting here, going as far back as I go with Lieutenant?
48:14Do you realize how far back I go with this guy?
48:17You said you wait.
48:20Since before you got your tushy pinched, that's how far back I go.
48:24Do I have you thrown out?
48:26I'm sorry.
48:27Vinnie.
48:28I got...
48:28In the hall.
48:29Lieutenant, please, you do me the courtesy here.
48:34I understand that there's been a break in the arson case.
48:38Tony and his uncle are being questioned?
48:40Yeah, yeah, it looks pretty good.
48:42Probably take a few days to develop.
48:44Well, that's good news.
48:45Maybe you could talk to the relevant parties, you know, put in a good word for me.
48:48Vinnie, you got yours.
48:49I got it.
48:50I got for my initial impetus I got.
48:52Not for my specific contribution in the light of the happy ending.
48:55Look, I'll try to get you another taste.
48:57All right, maybe sometime today.
48:59When it wraps, Vinnie.
49:00Thanks, Lou.
49:01Good, good, good.
49:03Very grateful.
49:13Okay, good, James, again.
49:19Okay, again.
49:20Now cross.
49:22Okay, now set up your right with your second jab.
49:24Now come on.
49:25That's what I'm trying to do.
49:29There you go.
49:30It's the same thing I just did.
49:31No, except this time you were pissed off.
49:34I'm sorry.
49:35No, James, James, you got to be pissed off.
49:37This is the one place that's okay.
49:39I know that.
49:40You know it, but you don't do it.
49:42Hey, Lou, you're not going to believe this,
49:43but I signed up the tournament to have a little fun.
49:46If I have to get pissed off to get in the ring,
49:48maybe I should be off riding my bike.
49:50No, the guy that's smacking the crap out of you
49:52ain't going to be thinking about riding no bicycle.
49:55He's going to think about putting that trophy up on his squad room's wall
49:58while you're laying on the canvas.
50:00Now, you want to do this or not, James?
50:01Yeah, I want to do it.
50:02Otherwise, get on your schwint.
50:04I said I want to do it.
50:05All right, then show me something.
50:07Double up and cross.
50:10All right.
50:13All right, better.
50:15Come on.
50:16Yeah.
50:18That's more like it.
50:19Yeah.
50:19That's more like it.
50:21You probably would have left town anyway.
50:37The bartender.
50:39Can you see?
50:42Yeah.
50:44Yeah, I think you probably would.
50:51It's late.
51:01Does that matter?
51:04Because it doesn't matter to me.
51:08And if it doesn't matter to me either,
51:13then what?
51:19I don't look that far from here.
51:21Isn't this one of those things we swear to ourselves
51:32we're going to avoid?
51:36Yeah.
51:39Let's do it anyway.
51:44Let's get the check.
51:51Let's do it anyway.
52:14You're not married, are you?
52:33You think I'd do that?
52:40No.
52:44Mm-mm. No.
52:49Okay.
52:52So now that you know that I'm free and clear,
52:58does that mean you're gonna see me again?
53:05You might not be married, but...
53:10Something about you doesn't strike me as free and clear.
53:18I didn't mean that you have a girlfriend, necessarily.
53:21I...
53:25I don't know what I meant.
53:28That wasn't what you asked me anyway, was it?
53:32No.
53:33Okay.
53:49Yes, I'd like to see you again.
