The first 200 lines.
Excuse me.
- Hey. What do we got? - Hey. Sean Young?
- Yeah, the boxer. - Yeah.
He left The Infatuation Lounge in the Meatpacking District
with a mystery woman at about 4:00 a.m.
- After the fight? - Yep.
Their car got jacked at a stoplight.
Perps took his jewelry, shot him twice.
He was found lying in the street.
- What about the woman? - Gone.
Thinking maybe Young was set up.
Sounds like a setup to me. Is he likely?
No word yet.
These guys with their after-parties.
Why don't you just go to the hotel and take a nap?
He's in stable condition from the stomach wound.
Still have to operate on the leg.
Uh, you can talk to him later.
All right. Thanks, Doc.
Hey. Danny Reagan.
Mosley, Brooklyn Robbery Squad.
This is my partner, Maria Baez.
Yeah, we know each other.
Yes, we do.
Oh.
Okay, well, thanks for keeping him warm.
We got it from here.
Detective, Sean Young was shot in Brooklyn,
which makes it my case.
Yeah, but the M.O. fits the pattern of a crew
that's struck twice in Manhattan,
so it makes it our case.
Same crew? Are you sure about that?
Three athletes hit the same way in the same month?
Yeah, I'd say there's a connection.
They both weren't shot.
That's a fine distinction.
Not to Sean Young, it isn't.
Okay, what do you say we just work this case
together until the bosses say otherwise?
Sounds good to me.
Sound good to you?
Whatever.
Thank you.
I always play the same number for Powerball.
What is it?
If I told you, it'd jinx it.
Well, have you ever won?
No.
Then how could I jinx it?
- Hey, hey, hey. - Hey, hey, folks. Is there a problem here?
Hey, what's going on?
Someone stole our bags.
Okay, calm down.
Just tell us exactly what happened.
We were checking into the hotel
and someone stole them!
Okay, did you get a description?
Did you see them?
No. We turned our backs for, like, a second and they were gone.
And what about you, Miss? Did you see anything?
What is it? Your passport was in the bag? Your money?
The ring.
- What ring? - For my sister's wedding.
I brought it from Oaxaca for the ceremony.
She trusted me with it!
Don't blame yourself.
Okay, what are you guys' names?
I'm Rosa Alvarez and this is Maribel Rivas.
Maribel, listen.
A detective will be assigned to your case right away.
We're gonna do everything we can to get your ring back.
You promise?
I promise we'll do our best.
All right. Copy that.
The limo driver who picked up Sean Young?
- Yeah. - He still hasn't...
turned up yet, and neither has his car.
Oh. Maybe he's in on it.
Well, let's check the license plate readers and E-ZPass,
- see if anything pops. - All right.
Do you think I'm not gonna ask?
What?
Come on, Baez.
We get paid to read people for a living.
You and Mosley. Give.
Just give it a rest for once, Danny.
I'm just saying... Come on.
Look.
I know he's the detective who was married, from your old squad.
The guy who promised to leave his wife for you.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't?
It was a long time ago. I'm over it.
Okay.
Is that why you've had so many great relationships since then?
Because you're so over it?
Just saying, if you want to sit this one out, it's no problem.
I'm not getting thrown off my own case for anyone.
Are you sure?
In case you haven't noticed, Danny, I'm a big girl.
Okay.
Okay, what's next?
And I have the final list of candidates for the promotion ceremony next week.
Are you sitting down, boss?
Last time I looked.
Right. We got a situation here.
You gonna tell me?
I'm just warning you. See for yourself.
- Thomas Sculley? - Up for sergeant.
- How'd this happen? - Strictly by the book.
He stayed on the job, kept his head down all these years.
- With this in mind? - All I know
is he passed the exam with flying colors.
He could jam up this whole department.
Boss, if I may?
We can't just turn our backs on him.
What the hell?
We're just getting into it.
I hope that what you're getting into is a way to make this disappear.
Now, for good.
- Hold on, Garrett. - Hold on for what, Sid?
We just don't throw him under the bus.
He's a cop.
He's a cop that joined three other cops
putting 61 rounds into an unarmed Muslim teenager!
He was acquitted of any crime!
By a jury in Albany!
That's where they held the trial, where else is he...
Stop!
Please.
I know you're going to want to do this by the book.
I pray there's some interpretation of that book...
- There's not. - ...that prevents Thomas Sculley
from being raised up in this department.
There isn't. I already checked.
Then you're gonna let me find a way.
- Is that an offer or a threat? - Call it what you want.
Frank, please tell me you're looking out ahead of this.
I'm trying.
'Cause in this climate--
in any climate in this city--
rewarding this guy with a rise-up in rank is gonna undo
years of outreach and tough compromise in one fell swoop.
Dammit.
Please take this card.
My number's there. Call me if you need anything.
We'll do our best.
Any leads on that robbery?
Not yet.
I got six opens on my desk I gotta hit first, including a home invasion.
I know you guys took the complaint.
They friends of yours?
No, just following up.
I'll let you know if anything breaks.
- Thanks. - Thanks, Detective.
That detective is too busy.
He's not gonna help us.
Investigations take time.
And it's not his only case.
And who cares about a couple of Mexican girls
who are gonna be gone in a week anyway?
Whoa, whoa,whoa, it's-it's not that.
Oh, really? Then what's it like?
Maribel is in a really bad situation.
Just please, please understand.
I haven't even told my family the ring is missing yet.
It'll be very difficult for them.
It's an heirloom;
the most valuable thing they own.
It was made by Emmanuel Peralta,
a very famous silversmith in Oaxaca.
There were times when we almost sold it,
but we passed it down instead.
It's our history,
our pride.
My sister's wedding is in four days.
I have to get it back!
Just sit tight and we'll look into it. Okay?
Thank you, officer.
I appreciate it.
You got it.
Did you want to pick your jaw up off the ground?
- Or... - Shut up, Janko.
I don't blame you. I mean, she's gorgeous.
What does that matter?
Admit it, you want to be her knight in shining armor.
Hey, listen, even if I was interested-- if--
it's against department policy.
Because we go out, something goes wrong,
she could sue the whole department.
But she's only in town for a few days and then she goes home.
To another country.
Jamie, you could loosen up. Go for it.
What are you, my wingman all the sudden?
No, I'm just looking out for your best interests.
I don't think it's in my best interest
to go hooking up with complainants.
Then why did you promise that you would help her?
Because Rosa is right.
