the front?
We figured she was standing
at the window when she got it.
How did she get to the bed?
- What about him?
- He's a William J Adams.
They're trying to figure it out now.
Start checkin' with the neighbours.
I'll catch you later. Downtown.
He was a cop.
- A cop?
- Ex-cop.
William J Adams.
Born 10-05-46.
Two years military.
Honourable discharge.
Six years NYPD.
Packed the job in 04-06-81.
The rest is N/A.
Not available.
Could you get me a make
on the fingerprints?
Here it is.
They lifted four sets of prints from
the apartment. Two male, two female.
The female matched the dead girl and
the apartment's owner, Susan Melnick.
One of the male's prints
match your dead cop - Adams.
We're still trying to make the other.
- Leo.
- Mickey, anything from the neighbours?
- Nobody heard a thing.
- Of course.
- But I got the word on Ellen Keith. Hi.
- Hi.
She had a couple or three
boyfriends this last year.
One's a film producer from Beverly Hills.
The other is an actor from California.
- They've both got solid alibis.
- And the third guy?
- Leo, you still need me or can I...?
- Just a sec. What about the third guy?
He's a special-effects man.
They do the tricks in the movies.
They were workin' on the same movie.
Name's Roland Tyler. They were an item.
- Where is this Tyler?
- He got into the wind two days ago.
Quite a coincidence.
You got an address on this guy?
I think I can find one somewhere.
Sweetie, see what you can dig up for me
on this Adams guy, huh?
Leo, the file's closed!
Reopen it.
Andy, listen. It's Rollie.
I want you to get my green make-up kit.
Yeah, it's in my place. Bring it...
Don't ask any questions, please.
Just do as I ask. All right?
I want you to bring it
to the boat pond in Central Park.
I'll be in the boathouse.
No, we're not doin' a boat movie.
Just do as I ask, please.
I'll see you later.
We were with De Franco.
He asked to go to the bathroom.
After 20 minutes Marshal Morgan and I
went to check and he was gone.
It's like I told Murdoch last night -
De Franco just slipped out.
- How did he get to that restaurant?
- I have no idea. A cab, I suppose.
It's my fault. I admit it.
- Do you want my resignation?
- I want your report, my desk, one hour.
Look, I'll get outta your hair.
Thanks, Murdoch.
Listen, I'm sorry about all of this!
I want you to meet Agent Whitemore.
- She will be liaison with your office.
- Anything I can do.
My desk,
one hour!
He bought that.
Maybe.
Lieutenant Murdoch,
is an informer involved?
- You don't have shit, do you, Murdoch?
- McCarthy, if you'll excuse me...
Give me De Franco. I'll take
all the press, all the responsibility.
Hell, I'll even give you the collar.
Just give me De Franco.
You'd love that, wouldn't you?
Leo McCarthy - first he brought in
De Franco, then De Franco's killer.
Why don't you just give it up, Leo?
- Not again, Leo. I don't wanna hear it.
- Well, you're gonna hear it, goddamn it.
I busted my ass for six months
on De Franco - six months!
He finally comes in and first he gets
shipped off to Lipton, who gets him killed.
And then you assign the case to
that asshole Murdoch. Why, Jake? Why?
You wanna know why? Because
I don't have time to play wet nurse
to some pathetic cop
who thinks he got the shaft.
- I did get the shaft. You shafted me.
- Know why Murdoch gets the glory?
Because he won't piss people off.
And, Leo, you piss people off.
Rollie?
Hi! I brought... What are you wearing?!
Look! You were followed!
- Followed?
- We've gotta lose him.
- Who?
- The tall one!
Rollie Tyler has a rifle
pointed right at your head.
If you wanna meet with him,
he'll know when you take this boat
and put it in the water.
Come on!
Hurry up!
Come on!
Rollie!
God damn you!
You've got to tell me what's going on!
I killed a man. Three people have
tried to shoot me. And Ellen's dead.
Did you knock?
Try it.
- Open up!
- I'm goin' for the tools.
Open up
