1:22:00
Listen. I just want you to help me watch
Henry Camerero for a few days. That's all.

1:22:04
- Why?
- Because he knows me from the
original Teresa investigation.

1:22:07
No. I mean, why suddenly
do you need me for anything?

1:22:10
You've been doing this
all by yourself all along. I've seen ya.

1:22:13
You never even bothered to show me the picture
you showed the man upstairs just now.

1:22:17
- Evans was following Niles, right?
- Right.

1:22:19
Well, I think Niles
wanted him to follow him.

1:22:21
You mean you think that he was
setting the kid up.

1:22:24
- That's exactly what I think.
- For what?

1:22:27
Evans nearly had it. He just hadn't figured out
Camerero yet. That's all.

1:22:30
He was trying to spook Niles
to get him to... to...

1:22:34
Look. The pieces are all there.
We just have to push it into place. That's all.

1:22:37
Evans was working the Teresa thing
on his own time.

1:22:40
He's killed on the same bus
with Gus Niles...

1:22:43
who's looking for a grease gun,
which happens to be the weapon used!

1:22:46
And then his girl ends up
dead on the floor with the needle.

1:22:50
Jake, are you aware
of what you just did to me?

1:22:54
You do it to me all the time. You heard what
the man just said upstairs, didn't ya?

1:22:58
I heard him. I was up there.
He's a nice man. He shoots in the low 80s...

1:23:00
but he plays it
too close to the vest.

1:23:02
What are you laying that on me for?
Why don't you stop it for once?

1:23:05
That's your personal hang-up!
It does not happen to be mine!

1:23:08
- Can't you see it?
- I see one thing.

1:23:10
I see why you're such a good cop.
And only one reason:

1:23:12
'Cause you're
so screwed up otherwise.

1:23:14
You're beyond human belief.
You understand that?

1:23:16
You got nothin' else.
No private life. Nothin'.

1:23:19
Well, what the hell are you worried about?
Your goddamn pensiĆ³n?

1:23:22
That's exactly it!
Put in the 25 and pick up my 55.

1:23:25
All I'm asking you to do is to help me watch a guy
for a few days. That's all. Routine.

1:23:29
It is not routine, Jake, goddamn it,
if the boss says forget it!

1:23:33
All right!
Then forget it! Forget it!

1:23:35
Look, you gotta understand
something right now.

1:23:37
If I thought you had one thing that was concrete,
I'm with you 100% of the way.

1:23:41
How the hell am I gonna get one concrete thing
if you ain't gonna help me?

1:23:45
- Understand something. I want desperately...
- Are you gonna help me or not?

1:23:48
- To stay in this blood-and-guts detail... desperately.
- Are you...

1:23:50
The overtime is terrific,
I get to use my head...

1:23:52
and I don't have to go back
to the moronic general works.

1:23:55
- Are you gonna help me or not?
- Oh...

1:23:57
For Christ's sake,
give me a break once!

1:23:59
- You guys gonna need a referee?
- No, no. Just a family beef, Joe.
