:45:02
With all due respect,
sir...
:45:06
backing us up is the only hope
the police department has got.
:45:09
Good cops would come forward if they
thought there was encouragement...
:45:12
in the department to do so, and if
they thought it would do any good.
:45:15
If there's no encouragement,
they're not gonna do it.
:45:17
I've done a lot more than most
people to defend and preserve...
:45:21
the image of this department
and protect Commissioner Delaney...
:45:24
against reckless and irresponsible
assaults from outside agencies.
:45:30
That's it, huh?
:45:32
I mean, that's what's
really important, isn't it?
:45:36
That's what
you want to know--
:45:38
what outside agencies
I've been to, right?
:45:43
- Hello.
- Hello, prick.
:45:44
- Who is this?
- Frank.
:45:47
- How are you? Where are you?
- I'm ready to go to the Times.
:45:51
It's a goddamn
serious step, Frank.
:45:55
I don't know if
the timing is right.
:46:01
Look, I want it to get on
the record, that's all...
:46:04
in case something
should happen to me.
:46:10
I want it on the record.
:46:15
I don't know ifwe
carry enough weight.
:46:18
I don't know if the New York Times
will go that far out on a limb...
:46:20
on the say-so
of two flunky cops.
:46:27
Suppose an inspector
were to come with us?
:46:31
You know, I got 20 years
on the force.
:46:34
Just bought this place.
I signed a 500-year mortgage on it.
:46:39
- Turn that thing off out there!
- Come on. Everybody to bed.
:46:42
- Aw, Mom!
- Turn that damn thing down!
:46:44
Come on, now.
Go on upstairs.
:46:46
You said we could go
to bed late!
:46:50
This is against department
regulations, you both know that.
:46:53
If they want to throw the book
at me, they can do it.
:46:57
If I left the force...
