05x01 - The Queen of Hearts Is Wild

Post by bunniefuu »

So, what are we playing?

Okay, cut the cards.

Here we go.

And yep,

This one is called Alice in Wonderland.

It's like five cards, Doug.

Only it isn't.

The Queen of Hearts is wild.

Unless the guy on the
right of the Queen of Hearts

has the King of Hearts,
then all the kings are wild.

What are we doing, playing poker,
telling fortunes?

Let's steal his choice, Lieutenant.

It's a good game, you'll see.

Yeah, so is old maid if you're ten.

Hey, Lieutenant, we're out of beer.

Poker makes me thirsty.

Really, how would you know?

All right, Tony, go down to Mike's and get
a couple of six-packs.

Hey, Lieutenant, what, am I a water boy?

No, you're a Detective Third, and I'm a
Lieutenant.

So go ahead.

Well, don't forget to cut the pot,
and let me know who wins, will you?

Yeah, sure.

All right, like I was saying, the Queen of
Hearts is wild.

Unless the guy on the right of the guy
who's got the Queen of Hearts has got the

King of Hearts, then all the kings are
wild, unless he's got a knave.

A knave, Stover?

What's a knave?

That's a jack, stupid.

Alice in Wonderland poker?

Yeah, before that it was something called
five drunken sailors.

Tell the guys I said hello.

Okay, and listen, Mike, have a good
weekend, will you?

Thanks, you too.

And all the guys at the game, huh,
Tony?

Yes, sir, can I help you?

We've got a special on a happy spear
today.

How about the money, pops?

You got a special on that?

Mike?

Mike?

Keep the pressure on hard.

Look, a police officer has been shot.

Send in ambulance.

An underground garage, 75th and 5th.

He had brown hair.

He was about medium weight and tall.

Look, will you just get here?

Where are you going?

Out!

Break it up.

Break it up.

I raised four.

Buffino must be making a beer in his
basement.

An officer is down two blocks away.

Let's go.

Hey, Lieutenant.

The beat cop has one or two witnesses.

Sounds like the same guy in the grocery
store k*lling us.

One or two.

Well, he's got one.

The other witness took off.

It's a Mrs. Benson.

She gave us a make and model and a partial
and a license plate.

I'll check out border vehicle for
combinations, Lieutenant.

Check out the apartments.

Yes, sir.

You and Crocker get out of the street.

Okay.

Okay, Buffino's not gonna
bring back the beer and

we're not gonna find a
k*ller hanging around here.

Go ahead, Crocker.

Four people are now a cop.

The first guy to get something,
we're all in on.

Stavros.

Yes, sir.

You're a gentleman, right?

Yes, sir.

I don't want a lynching.

Don't want it, Lieutenant.

We have to talk.

Where are you calling from?

The house.

Are you crazy?

And the next time I order veal,
I want veal, not your old beef.

Well, up and dressed already.

Mm-hmm.

You know, someday the kid who did that's
gonna want my job.

Things like that don't interest you,
do they?

People out there, sh**ting, k*lling,
some live, some die.

I never liked it before, either.

I had enough of it.

I mean, I did it.

I guess I still do it, only now I can
order it like I order your clothes.

Does that bother you?

Should it?

I really gotta hand it to you,
Janet.

Money, cars, a good time, that's your
whole world.

How was that concert last night?

You're not Prokofiev.

Very heroic.

That means you really went, right?

Ask your goon.

Ask Curly.

You know, I catch you with another guy,
you're dead.

I know.

You've k*lled before.

Don't be cute with me.

I may not have your education,
but I've got you.

Why don't take abuse from anyone?

I told you that.

Look, will you just get here?

This just came in from Ballistics.

Slugs that k*ll Tony match the others.

Four liquor store murders in six months.

I called Manhattan North.

They're sending down what they have on the
two we did up there.

Lieutenant, that lady on the phone doesn't
live in any of those apartments.

I don't want to rent the padseps.

They don't want to talk to her.

Well, there is one possibility.

There's a corporation that keeps an
apartment there.

And someone thinks that someone
like that went in there. I don't know.

Something this and something that and you
don't know.

Well, I want you to know because I want
that witness.

Go ahead.

Frank, it's boiling in here.

If you're dying, it's not the heat.

Sit down.

I said, sit down.

Come on with you, Frank.
I got a k*ller on my hands.

Oh, you have, huh?
You have a k*ller on your hands?

What about me?

What about the rest of the city?

What about Crocker, Stavros, Saperstein,
Rizzo?

Now, cut the body English and listen.

You did not, I repeat, you did not have
anything to do with Tony Buffino's death.

I know that.

Well, you don't act like you know.

I know it here!

But down here, I feel like an accomplice.

Excuse me, but Mrs. Benson just ID'd a guy
in the yellow sheet.

Stavros is running it through the
computer.

Frank.

I hear what the Yankees have a picture in
the minor league.

He's already got 200 strikeouts.



You're doing a great job, Saperstein.

I'm working.

What do I know?

Mrs. Benson, this is Captain McNeil,
Lieutenant Kojak.

Now, we already identified the assailant.

Now we're going to work on the composite
of the other witness, right?

Are you sure of this?

Yes, I'm sure.

I think.

Yes, yes, I'm sure.

I could never forget that face.

Well, I want you to know how much we
appreciate all this.

And I know it's difficult.

Mrs. Benson would like a tea?

With just a splash of whiskey.

Joe.

I think that's the man.

Oh, dear.

Lieutenant, we got a make.

We got it.

William Alban, alias Barry Abel,
age 32, 5 foot 11, 155.

Seven arrests, armed robbery.

One conviction.

Grocery store, paroled.

Six months ago.

Come on.

I know how everyone feels about this guy.

What are you trying to say?

My 14 years is trying to say these guys
are hot.

I don't want any mistakes.

Right.

All right, men.

No one ever plans it.

Where's the statement?

She refuses to make one of them.

I'll make one.

Billy's been with me for days.

He's a psycho.

And you've got to help us put him away.

You can't hold me forever.

There's such a thing as reasonable
detention.

I don't know anything about anything.

Book the young lady on section 148.

What?

Resisting public officers in the discharge
of their duties.

What duties?

Listen, young lady.

I mean, if you're going to dress like a
grown-up, you've got to think like one.

Now, you're helping to put a cop k*ller
back out on the streets.

Take her downstairs.

Hey, so a cop was k*lled.

Big deal.

Here, cop.

He was a human being, just like you.

And now he's no longer alive.

And now this pig won't
be around when you were

walking down the streets
one night, yelling, Police!

Help!

Get her out of my sight.

Let's go, little girl.

Hey, look who's here.

Charlie.

How you doing?

You look terrific.

Come on up here.

It's good to be back.

Man, you are not only back, but you have
your own territory.

And I want you to start upping that take
very fast.

Because that locks that I got there now,
he must be sleeping on the sidewalk.

It's good to be out.

Yeah, I bet it is.

It's like being buried alive.

You know, I had a cellmate.

He was kind of a weirdo.

And down the hall, there was a guy talking
about his wife all night.

And next there was some slob crying about
all the kids he never saw.

I tell you, that's the only thing in this
life that I was ever afraid of.

I get the sweats thinking about that cell
before I go back.

I'd k*ll a hundred guys before I go back.

That's why I tell you, don't ever carry a
piece.

They catch you with one.

You had it.

Where are you off to this time?

You don't play concerts at this hour.

To call the cops?

Is she something?

It's my new toy.

You know, the feds never gave up on me.

They want me to think that they did,
but they never gave up.

I want you to keep an eye on her.

She'd sell me for a dollar after taxes.

Hello, Manhattan South, Detective Crocker.

Miss, can you speak up, please?

Have you caught him yet?

Hold on, and I'll give you someone that'll
tell you.

Just hold on for a second.

It's the fifth time she's called.

Detective Crocker, can I help you?

The one who shot the cop.

Did you catch him?

Well, if you're the lady who saw the
sh**ting, look, we really need your help.

Open it up, Riz.

Relax.

Come on, get in here.

The one with the bandage looked like him.

You have to be sure.

Well, I'm pretty sure it was the man with
the bandage.

I only saw him for a
moment after he knocked me

down, but it could be
the man with the bandage.

What are we doing here?

What have we got?

He won't talk.

He's got a girl out there who's willing to
swear that he was making like Casanova at

the time of the m*rder, and a nice old
lady who saw a k*ller for 20, 30 seconds

under extreme duress in a dimly lit garage
at night.

Coffee counselor?

We don't have the g*n.

We don't have the other witness to the
m*rder.

How a third-rate public defender could get
this yo-yo off?

He was arrested seven times, and they're
all majors.

Only one conviction.

Sugar?

Lieutenant, I don't think you're hearing
me.

He hears you.

He just pretends he doesn't when you're
not on his side, and I don't blame him.

Hey, Frank, don't be unfair to the
gentleman.

I mean, Assistant D.A. Hepburn here

here is trying to logically tell
me that we can't go into arraignment

because we don't have enough prima facie
evidence to take a psychotic trial.

Is that the phrase?
- We don't have enough anything.

You know that.
- I know he k*lled Tony Buffino.

I also know he k*lled four grocery store
owners.

I also know that you
want to put him out on

the streets, and I know
that I don't want to.

We don't have any choice.

We had somebody who picked him out of a
line-up.

That's not enough to convict.

It's enough to stall until we find the
proper witness who can convict.

Kojak.

Hey, Lieutenant, is
that the way to get on

somebody who found
that lady you're looking for?

Rizzo, I love you.

And I never, ever want you to misunderstand
the depth of our relationship.

Now, who is she and where?

Well, I tracked down those addresses the
motor vehicle gave us.

Now, she denies it, but she's our missing
witness.

And she's also Arnie Brace's lady.

Arnie Brace controls three boroughs.

I know, Frank.
I put him away twice.

These just arrived, and I... I wanted to
save you one before they got gobbled up.

You know, most of my
customers, they can afford

them, but they don't
look nearly as smashing.

Thank you.

Yes.

You like it?

Hmm.

She, uh, she's a very jealous friend.

Oh?

Thanks for the tip.

Can I help you?

What?

Can I help you?

I'll call.

You know, I never could figure out whether
the girl makes the clothes or vice versa.

Uh, until now.

Well, uh, this was meant to be seen in the
bedroom only.

I think I'll take it.

I knew you would.

I'm sure Arnie will love it.

Are you my new escort?

Peek-a-boo.

Ooh.

A cop.

Look, girlie.

Relax.

I told the other cop.

Okay.

Tell me.

I don't know anything about a k*lling
Friday night.

You know something?
You sound like the girl who called.

Well, it was somebody else.

This isn't somebody else's face.

Well, it isn't mine.

I have a witness who says different.

I don't give a damn what they say.

I was at a concert Friday night.

And I went straight home.

Now, you can ask my driver.
He'll tell you.

Okay.

Both can tell me.

Don't doubt.

You know what Arnie will do to me if he
catches me talking to the police.

Hey, baby.

I don't pick your playmates.

You did.

Besides that, he's gonna love the pen. Why?

What about that little guy you used to
hang around with?

What little guy?

You have got to be kidding.

Kidding?

Who's kidding?

I did a course in psychology.

This is my way of calming down upset
witnesses.

Pick a card.

I am not upset, and I am not a witness.

Now, when do I get out of here?

Well, the lieutenant's got the key.

I told him I wasn't there.

Curly told him I wasn't there.

Now, what more does he want?

We got a lady coming down, and we want to
hear it from her that you weren't there.

What?

Captain McNeil.

No, no.

Go in the lieutenant's office.

Thanks.

Come on.
Try it.

You'll see.
Pick a card.

You'll relax.
Go ahead.

Okay.

Now, put it right back there.

That's it.

Three of hearts.

See?
I told you to relax.

I can't believe it.

Believe it?

Surveillance reports don't lie.

We've been on Arnie Brace and his crowd
for almost a year.

Why didn't you tell us you were after
Arnie Brace?

It's a federal matter.

There was no need to involve local police.

Oh, really?
How about his local rackets?

You're going to tell his victims that it's
federal?

Do you ever hear the word cooperation?

Isn't that in the federal dictionary?

I am cooperating.

I showed you the report, and I told you
why you have to stay away.

We know where they go and what they do.

Janet Carlisle was at the concert.

We have witnesses that say she was in the
garage.

Your witnesses are wrong.

That's why we have a lineup.
You know what that is?

We put people on a line, and we call it a
lineup.

Do you ever hear of it?

I don't have to take this from your
lieutenant.

My lieutenant is our public servant.

Gentlemen, this is a federal case.

You're interfering.

Now, that report says you stay off Arnie
Brace because we're on him.

Now, Janet Carlisle is part of his crowd.

You show interest in her, he gets nervous,
and you blow our case.

So get off it!

The hell I will.

It's a little childish, isn't it?

Don't you put him down.

He nailed Arnie twice while you were still
making panty raids.

If he's upset, it's because
without Arnie's girlfriend he

has to let some psycho
loose who kills indiscriminately.

And the next death could be yours.

Now, what's this about cooperation?

All right, this is what it comes down to.

Any police interest about Arnie Brace or
anyone in his crowd.

And he crawls into his shell and we lose
him.

Now, I showed you that report.

Janet Carlisle was at the concert.

Now, you press that broad and you're gonna
blow our case.

And Arnie Brace will blow her away.

Theo.

I'm gonna let the lady go.

Thank you, Captain.

Crocker.

Now, Theo, you know she was there.

I know she was there.

She says she wasn't.
Her driver says she wasn't.

If the feds say she wasn't, then she
wasn't there.

No matter what Mrs. Benson says,

you're gonna have to build
your case some other way.

Yes, sir.

Let the lady go.

I said, let the lady go.

Lieutenant.

All right, you've called the roll.

Now, let the lady go.

She's our case.

You're gonna let
the captain... Hey!

I didn't let him.

I mean, I busted him in grade.

And he still did it.

Here's what I want you to do.

What'd you get to report?

I want to know where
she was born, where she

went to school, where
she had dinner last night.

I want to know everything.

Just stay away from the feds.

Go ahead.

I could bust you for that.

Even if I don't, the feds could wreck you.

I know.

As long as we're communicating.

Janet, you gotta understand, don't put me
up against the wall.

I understand, Curly.

I have to tell Arnie the cops pulled us
in.

So tell them.

You'll k*ll me if I don't.

Job's a job, right?

Janet, that's right.

The only way I see it, Curly,
that you could get into trouble,

is if you lost me or something,
like you did Friday night.

And you didn't tell Arnie, like you
didn't.

But Arnie found out anyway.

Even if it wasn't you who told him.

Now.

Lay those chips over there, that's it.

Here's a hundred don't pass, money plays
cash.

Cops?

You let cops in here?

Why don't you go on and swim back across
the river to New York?

And what is this, a game of nasty words or
craps?

Sir, will you roll the dice?

Nine.

Mark nine.

Seven away.

Pay me.

Don't depend on a broad.

Oh, that's not true.

I bet she's lucky.

We have a new sh**ter coming out.

Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen.

Here, baby, blow.

I'm gonna lay a bet down here for you,
darling.

Hey, that's your commission, okay?

You know him?

Arnie, I don't know him.

Does she?

No.

Arnie, what are you looking at?

I mean, I'm not interested in you.

It's your lady I'm interested in.

Please throw the dice.

Five grand, they don't.

I'm going for a drink.

Oh, no, don't go.

He's just mad because
out of the two or three

times he was sent
up, I was responsible.

Why don't you introduce me to the lady?

He's a cop.

He's one of New York's finest.

Hey, Kojak, when they say that,
what do they mean?

Finest what?
Pig?

Ah.

Sir, will you please throw the dice?

Throw the dice?

Hey, devil.

The 11, front line winner 11.

Now, you see what happens when you treat a
lady nice?

Lady luck smiles at you.

Come on, why don't we get away from the
threat?

Yeah, she's pretty.

You know a guy who once winked at her?

He can't wink anymore.

Honey, threats in front of all these
witnesses.

But I'll tell you something.

It's worth getting this face busted up for
her.

It's not funny, cop.

When you leave, I get it.

Honey, you got a reputation for beating on
chicks.

Well, don't.

I like that face just the way it is,
okay?

I like you, honey.

I just don't like your company.

So, ciao, huh?

One for the boys.

Thank you, sir.

And pass the dice and like that.

Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen.

New sh**ter, coming up.

What do you mean, nothing?

Well, if Janet Carlisle was born anywhere,
lived anywhere, or worked anywhere,

there's nothing to show for her,
Lieutenant.

Well, what'd she do, step off a UFO?

Hey, Crocker, keep them on.

Hold on a second.

Here.

Lieutenant, we had friends that go over
the company apartment for Prince.

Guess who was one of them?

Janet Carlisle.

Oh, but how about that Fed Robinson?

Robinson.

Here he goes.

No shot.
I'm gonna wipe you out.

Show you no mercy.

No mercy.

Gonna teach you a lesson so that I can
take you out.

Big deuce.

Willie Moscone.

Let me hear yours, sir.

Thank you.
Come back.

Oh, hi, Theo.
- Hi.

Nice to see you.
What do you have?

Corned beef and the usual.

Okay.

What's the special?

We don't have any specials.

What about that?
It says Sask.

It's an old sign.

How's the roast beef?

Good.

Okay.
That's a T.

All right.
I'm right over.

Where have you been?

Bobby, don't you get tired of eating here
every day?

Oh, Fed.

Janet Carlisle, a federal agent.

And she's very good at her job.

Have I got a loose mouth or something?

I mean, I've got a reputation for blowing
a whistle on federal agents.

Is that why you didn't tell me?

I suppose some cop who doesn't
know she's good at her job gets

into a beef with this hothead
Arnie and there's a sh**ting.

You were told to stay away.

Stay away.

Hey, now, cut that.

We're trying to have a conversation here.

Can't you see you're getting him all
worked up?

Would you put the food down and just
leave?

Now, this is my place, not yours.

He gets indigestion.

He blames the food.

He blames the food, I lose a customer and,
more importantly, a good friend.

So, cool it.

Oh, yeah, enjoy.

You got the home court advantage.

I was told she was at a concert.

I was also told she was part of his crowd.

All right, so she was at the apartment
where the officer was k*lled.

And she'll so testify.

No, she will not testify.

If Arnie finds out she was
at that apartment, for any

reason, he's not gonna
let go until he gets it all.

Now, Arnie knows he's got nothing to lose.

If we get him this time, he goes up
forever.

I have a psycho kid.

I'm putting him back on the street.

Do I have to tell you how many people Arnie
has wasted, the drugs, the prostitution?

Now, the kid only k*lled five so far that
we know of.

And one, a young cop.

You have another witness.

Janet Carlisle is all I have.

My other witness who won't hold up.

Tie him into the other killings.
Find the g*n.

What the hell do I know?

We got a room in there three days.

And I want that lady.

I'm warning you, Kojak.

You subpoena that
lady and walking a beat in

Bozeman, Montana is
gonna look good to you.

Bozeman, Montana.

Bozeman, Montana.

Well, at least it'll be cool.

You hit me again.

Shut up.

Now, I wanna know what went on in that
club out in jersey.

I told you last night.

He was working you over, not me.

Honey, do I have to explain a way every
man who talks to me?

Are you that insecure, honey?

Honey!

I'll tell you what I am.

I am not a fool.

I'm making intros thinking
Kojak is out to harass

my butt and you're the
one he's interested in.

Arnie, I don't know what he was doing
there.

Gee, you got a memory problem.

Because you also forgot that you didn't go
to that concert the other night.

It's a good thing Curly didn't.

It's really a very good year for a rum.

It's good news.

It's nice.

To us.

I don't want any.

Drink the wine.

Excuse me.

Sit.

Let go of me.

I said don't go.

I am going to the ladies room.

You want to check it out first?

Move.

What are you trying to do?

Get me k*lled?

Five minutes.

Robinson told you to stay away.

We've been working on this case for months
and you're going to blow it.

It's all right.
We're married.

I just left him.

Yeah, but I'm looking for a winner back.

I hate him.

He's disgusting.

We're all so perverted.

And I'm also concerned
about what's going to

come down when that
psycho hits the rocks.

You think I haven't thought about that?

Hey, talk is cheap.

In the meantime you're leading a plush
life, right?

With your evening gowns.

I'm doing my job.

And your cars and your money.

And how you get to play in federal agent?

Arnie Brace has kit more people than that
kit of yours ever will.

Yeah, that's only an excuse.

In the meantime it's all fun and games,
eh?

And tell me this, baby.

What kind of a chick would hop into the
sack with Arnie Brace?

You want to know how the big man gets his
kicks?

I'm sorry, baby.

I told him to keep his hands off you.

I guess he didn't hear you.

Why do you do it?

What do you want to hear?

That he k*lled my father?

That he put my kid brother on dope?

No, he didn't do any of that.

Not to any of us.

And I am not from the ghetto.

I went to a nice school in a nice
neighborhood.

And I thought that law enforcement would
be fun.

And whatever else you think, it began as
an assignment.

Just get to know him.

And then when I saw what he was,

I began to think he'd k*ll my family too.

Oh,

oh, oh, I love him.

If one of you men was trying to get close
to some rich chick that you were trying to

make a case on, everybody would be
slapping you on the back green with envy.

So much for equal rights, right?

Hey, can you, can you accelerate your
case?

I don't know.

We worked so hard to get this month.

We tried extortion.

We tried m*rder.

And we think our best bet is to try to
build a tax case.

You know how long that takes.

Well, I can seize this guy with a g*n and
hit somebody else's head.

We can only hold on to him for another
day, and then I gotta let him go.

And I can't live with that.

I will not let him get away.

Maybe you don't have to.

Whatever happened in the eight hour day?

McNeil.

Here, Frank, I'm with Janet Carlyle.

We're working something out.

It's ill*gal, right?

Uh, no.

Oh, how nice.

Can I know about it?

You know, her case will take several more
weeks to build, right?

Okay.

We need her tomorrow.

And we don't want to lose him,
right?

So, uh, we're gonna push him and make both
cases.

Push him?

Push on he brace?

Theo, don't endanger yourself.

He's their problem.

That's the way they want to play it.

You gotta trust me, Frank.

I need some help down here.

Why don't you go see where she is?

Anybody in here?

Hey, Janet, come on.
This is embarrassing.

Get your butt out there.

Arnie's waiting and getting nervous.

Kojak, come on.

What?

You're not gonna leave me in here.

This is a lady's room.

Sit down.

You see, this is between me and Arnie
Brace.

The lady beater.

Mr. Arnie Brace, the lady beater.

Get him out of here.

Hey.

You don't like me moving in on your
territory.

You take it up with me, animal.

Get him out of here.

You sit.

No way.

She now belongs to me.

And if you come near her again,
I'm going to splatter your brain.

All over Manhattan.

Come on.

That was fast.

Don't lose him.

We'd better keep moving.

I've got an extra g*n in the car.

I'll take it.

Give me a g*n.
- Arnie, he's a cop.

Give me a g*n!

This is dumb, Arnie.

People saw him work the over.

Kojak!

Kojak!

Marty the cop.

Kojak!

Freeze!

Just hold it right there.

Lonnie Brinch, look at you.

Come on, baby.

There go the bad guys.

The old one is hers.

The big one is his.

We're set.

Okay.

What's the other charges, then?

Let's see.

For you, felonies of sorts.

Attempted m*rder on a police officer.

Attempted m*rder on a lady.

Possession of a deadly weapon.

Possession of a deadly weapon in the hands
of a three-time loser.

I just thought I'd throw that in,
Arnie, just to keep it clear.

You know, like a friend of the court.

What are the charges against her?

You're going to testify you saw the kid
k*ll a police officer?

What kid?

What police officer?

You lousy bum.

You almost got me k*lled.

You only asked me to go with you to get at
him.

Possession of a deadly weapon.

as*ault to commit m*rder.

Pandering.

And then bring him upstairs.

Okay.

And now about personal effects.

I got a wallet here with a telephone
credit card in it.

You gonna check out the card?

Wallet.

No worry beads.

I'll need these.

One wallet.

Geez, I ordered salami.

Salami is two bangs.

Cheese is one.

You want it out, get your own lawyer.

Oh, that's good to know.

Okay, baby, you want it all, I'll give it
to you.

I have been walking out on you for a very
long time.

Settle down.

Just like the night I was doing,
that kid got shot up in that garage.

Oh, so you were there.

Sure I was there.

And I was not with him.

Are you going to testify against the kid?

I'll broadcast it.

You put me any place where I can say I
cheated on Arnie.

You see Arnie, you do a lady a favor.

In my office.

Concerts every night?

Sure, concerts.

Oh, Arnold, darling, concerts are so
enriching.

They're so sensuous.

Especially when I'm listening to them on
the radio in some nice man's room.

Well, we did it and we didn't blow you a
couple.

We were lucky.

We were lucky.

My head's k*lling me.

Okay, what do you do now?

Stay with the syndicate.

They dig me.
I'm an educated freak.

They're still Arnie's bosses.

Some other contacts I made.

I'm going to stick with it.

How long can you take it?

As long as I can.

You know something?

I thought I was a dedicated public
servant.

You make me feel as if I'm on vacation.

Well, maybe I'll get lucky and you'll bust
me again one day.

Crocker, get her out of here and spray the
room.

Take it easy.
