"68 East 74th." "Here you go." "I need some photo ID." "You can have it back when you return the plans." "Cooper Union." " My daughter's thinking of applying." " You like it?" " Do you have a photocopier?" " 12th floor." "Five cents a page." "You need to have these back by closing time today." "Thanks, pal." "Don't be stupid." "Ah, ah, ah." "Mikey?" "Jake." "Oh, yeah." "Yeah, what's up, man?" "I'm over this way." "I'll take that from here." "Hey, man, you got a fiver?" "All I got's Canadian." "You know, for him." "Forget that, man." "Here you go." "Come on." "Oh God, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry, my fault." "It's all right." "You okay?" "Yeah, sure." "Sorry." "Meet Mr. Morris, Mr. Crane." " Everything okay, baby?" " Yeah." " Here, give me the wig." " Hey, partner." " You up for some fun?" " All the time." "Welcome to New York City." "Put 'em on." "Whoo!" "This is all right." "Didn't I tell you I'd take care of you?" "Dress for success, yeah?" "Yeah." "Okay, on to work." "Here you go, Mr. Morris." "If you would just sign where I circled here?" "It's space number three." "The gray Cadillac." "Here, let me get that for you, sir." "Wow." "A chimp could take better pictures than Ansel Adams with this." "I'll take it." "Credit card and driver's license." "We're still under their radar." "Time to leave New York, partner." "Don't worry." "They're not gonna be home until tomorrow." "Isn't this better than the dorm, huh?" "Come here, I want you." "Come on." "My old room's here." "Where are you taking me?" "Oh my God!" "Hey!" "Take it easy. it's cool." "Just take it easy." "No!" "This isn't good, man." " Take it easy." " What's the problem?" "No, no." "No, please!" "Oh God!" "Oh God!" "Let's go!" "Sergeant Finley?" "I'm Detective Eames, this is Detective Goren." "We're from Major Case." "Tell us what you have here." "The perps broke into this apartment over the weekend." "They dug through the sub-basement to this jewelry store over here." "We've got one body in the safe room." "One of the perps, looks like." "We got two bodies in the apartment." "College kids-- boy and a girl." "Wrong place, wrong time." " They live here?" " No, the girl's parents, the Kerstens." "They're inside." "So which crime scene you want to see first, the apartment or the jewelry store?" "The parents first." "When did you get this letter?" "It came in the mail Monday." "Sweepstakes winner." "Weekend at Atlantic City." "Limousine." "Free accommodations." "All expenses..." "This phone number here, did you call it?" "Yes, to confirm." "A girl answered." "She wished us luck at the casino." "Damn them." "Your daughter lived with you?" "No, no." "Sophie was in a dorm at Columbia." "She wanted to be independent, you know?" "We were so worried for her when she moved out." "Mr. and Mrs. Kersten," "I can't tell you how sorry we are for what happened to your daughter." "But we will find the people who did this." "Your sergeant said they were professionals." "The chances of you catching them..." "Mr. Kersten, I give you my word-- we'll catch them." "It's a nice thought, but how can you make a promise like that?" "You don't get to do this for a bunch of rocks." "Over there were the Russians, 127 carats." "D and E, white, flawless." "There it was Canadian pieces, 78 carats, not the best quality for earrings." "And here, uncut stones I'd just brought back from London two weeks ago." "One piece was 22 carats." " Altogether, 300, 350?" " Maybe." "I cannot be sure." "Well, let's call it $300 million." "You can beef it up later for the insurance." "I need a shot of his right hand." "The genius who tapped into the security lines had to be working with two computers minimum, using custom software." " Here's your genius." " How do you figure?" "There are fragments from the copper wiring embedded in the tips of his gloves." "The question is, what did he do to get himself shot?" "His buddies got greedy." "Or he did." "No, it's too personal for that." "I count four entry wounds in his skull." " Overkill." " Do you notice his shoes?" " Brand new." " Same with the rest of his clothes." "His jacket pockets are still sewn shut." "He went out big-- $300 million." "They're not going to move that much merchandise overnight." "We've got a week, assuming they're still in the city." "We'll put a description out to every jurisdiction in the tri-state." "It should be in NCIC by end of business." "On the chance these cowboys have some heavy hitters backing them, we brought OCCB into the loop." "Make sure they stay two steps behind you." "Get a workup on every known ice crew." "Their whys and wherefores." "An established crew would never leave one behind." "Kid was an amateur." "Might've been worried he'd squawk." "You wait, deal with that problem somewhere else-- with one bullet." "Whoever ran this show was impulsive." "Organized, but impulsive." "I realize how unstimulating police procedure can be for a right-brained guy like you, and I say this with all the respect due a Detective First Grade-- touch all the bases." "What else?" "They probably had to pull blueprints, so we'll check with the Building Department." "We ran down the limo company that took the Kerstens to Atlantic City." " We're waiting to hear back." " Very nice, Alex." "Give me a status at 2:00." "East 74th." "Here it is." "Plans issued two weeks ago to an Anna Hutchinson." " Did you get any ID?" " Student ID from Cooper Union." "Oh, yeah." "I remember her." "What did she look like?" "Good looking young woman." "Slim, dark hair-- shoulder-length, glasses, black rims-- you know, the art student look." "What was her demeanor like, the way she spoke-- friendly or not?" "Not." "An honest to goodness ice queen." "We'll need you to come down later to talk to our sketch artist." "Thanks." "Using this girl, that's not standard procedure for a burglary crew." "It's most likely the boss' girlfriend." " Anybody else wouldn't be trusted." " Eames." "Put him through." "Yes, this is Detective Eames." "That's right." "I'll need the card number." "Get back to me, please." "Dispatcher from the limo company." "The car was ordered over the phone with a credit card." "Name of Justin Crane." "I used it to pay for groceries at D'Agostino's." "I was getting into my car to go up to Vermont when some guy bumped into me-- some jogger." " He must've picked my pocket." " What did this jogger look like?" "Blond hair-- long blond hair, sunglasses." "I didn't get a good look at him." " Maybe your friend did." " My friend?" "The ski reporter on the radio said it was bright and sunny up in Vermont." "For someone who was outside all weekend, you look as pale as I do." "Spending all that time indoors by yourself wouldn't have been much fun." "So can we talk to your friend?" "Long blond hair, right." "We'd still like you to talk to our sketch artist." "We'll give you a call." "Thank you." "She didn't do any better than her boyfriend." " Cooper Union?" " No Anna Hutchinson on their student roster." "Charges on Mr. Crane's credit card since it was stolen." "Our thief's been living it up." "Friday, $4,200 at Tourneau Watch," " $2,200 at Prada" " That's John Doe's new clothes." "He spent two grand on clothes for a jewelry heist." "New job, new clothes." "Saturday, $300 at a camera store." "More charges Sunday, today." "You want to hit some of these places?" "Does it bother you that the same people who just jacked $300 million" " are maxing out a stolen credit card?" " Once a thief." "You said yourself, they're impulsive." "Okay, if it doesn't bother you." "That was good, baby." "What did I tell you?" "Cut the attitude, eh?" "I got you off coke, I'll get you off those." "That's good, partner." " Now what?" " Nothing." "I want a steak." "We don't have any." "Well, the Palm's just 2 blocks away, honey." "I'm sore." "I can't walk." "If you love me, you can walk." "Yes." "Mr. Crane." "I remember the sale." "He spent two minutes looking at the camera and bang-- sold." " What did he look like?" " About six feet." "Medium height." "Red hair, short, mustache." " Tinted aviator glasses." " Did he show you a driver's license?" " Of course." "We ask for one with every purchase." " Was anybody with him?" " No." " Did he know a lot about cameras?" "He knew what he was looking for." " He asked for one with good low-light resolution." " What did that tell you?" "Low light-- boudoir photos." "90% of these instant cameras, people buy them for intimate portraiture." " Excuse me." " Excuse me a second." "We got a pop on the credit card." "The 3-6 has a suspect in custody." "Rise and shine, Sharif." "He was using the Justin Crane credit card?" "He was busted buying Metro cards for his homeboys." " Where did you get the card?" " I told them a white dude gave it to me." " When?" " On Saturday, outside the camera store on 23rd." " What'd he look like?" " Red like an apple." "Red hair, red lip bush." " He just gave it to you?" " Yeah." "I didn't know it was stolen." " He said, "Help yourself."" " Then what, he got in his sleigh and rode off with his reindeer?" "No, just his big gray Caddie." "Ho, ho, ho." "That's him." "This one from the kid." "This from the camera salesman." "See a family resemblance?" "These two could be this mutt." "We had the witnesses look at mug books, but nobody jumped out at them." " The gray Caddie?" " The kid remembered a couple numbers from the license plate." " APB out." " What am I looking at?" "Our John Doe-- the stiff from the crime scene." "It's homemade. it could be a prison tattoo." "How'd he get to prison without his prints in the system?" "How'd my luggage end up in Amarillo last Christmas?" "Where are we with matching MOS?" " Doesn't fit any crackers in the database." " Try a bigger database." "Our boy is an extrovert." "He's brazen, self-confident, charismatic." "He imposes his girlfriend on the gang and he's holding them together even after killing one of them." "We should look at armored car heists, bank jobs, anything with public displays of firepower." "Okay, we wasted time chasing down this credit card." "Let's make up for it." "The jewelry store sent over surveillance tapes for the last month." "Our perps could be on there casing the premises." "Any volunteers?" "The ice queen?" "You notice anything unusual?" "Not really." "It's just that she's putting lipstick on her eyeball." "She's taking a picture of the safe." "Am I missing something?" " I just like to watch." " I like to listen." "I'm meeting a snitch down at the Coronet." "So if you have $300 million in hot stones, who do you go to?" "Whoever gives you the best price." "Maybe you get 30¢ on the dollar." "$100 million." "Still a nice piece of change." " So who?" "The Russians?" " They don't need them." "They're choking on diamonds from the Kremlin vaults." "Maybe the Chinese." "This is hand-tooled, not machined." "This X-brace was left welded to the safe." "I might know a man in Brooklyn." " It's not one of mine." " The question was, did you make it?" " Your partner is deaf?" " Maybe you are." "She asked you a yes or no question." "Then the answer is no." "Mr. De Santis, our crime lab can match the unique marks on this piece to the characteristics on the tools you used to make it." "Of course, we'd have to confiscate all your equipment." "Might take months to get it back." "We'll take that as a yes." "Who ordered it?" "Some guy." "If I never saw him again, it would be too soon." " His name?" " I don't know." "Serbian?" "Croatian?" "A bald guy." "There anything else?" "Yes-- you're closing early today." "You got to think about this." "Here we are, 15 years old, selling boomboxes to one of Big Paulie's fences, and Danny's just-- he's playing him." "I'm telling you, your brother Danny, rest his soul, had big ones." "Excuse me." "I always had a thing for Gia." "But never, out of respect for Danny" "I admire your discipline." "She mentioned you had a piece of business." " Not here, Jimmy." " No." "Sure." "How big a piece?" "$100 million big." "INS sent these over." "Every man, woman and child who entered the country in the last year with a passport from the Balkans." "And that's for the year before this." "Goren." "That's right." "What lot?" "Tell them to stay away from it." "We'll be there in a half hour." "Gray Caddie turned up." "The car's a rental." "We're waiting for an ID on the driver." "Pop the trunk." "James Randazzo. it's a Bensonhurst address." "Randazzo." "There's a Jimmy Randazzo who's a soldier for the Masucci family." "All that glitters." "About 40 carats worth." "Let's round up the usual Masuccis." "I want a full court press on the Masuccis." "Our informants have been telling us the Randazzos have been on the outs with the Masuccis since 3 months ago." "Some dispute over liquor distribution." "Now the dispute's over diamonds." "This is not a mob thing." "It's a sucker's game, Captain." "This guy's just buying time." "He's paying a big premium." "There must have been, what, a million bucks worth of stones in Randazzo's pocket?" "Lot of money just to send up some smoke." "Goren, it's for you." " Friend of yours?" " I sure hope so." "I showed Randazzo's diamonds to our jeweler." "They were grade F -- slightly flawed, gray color." "The worst rocks of the bunch." "You were right." "The Masucci angle's a lot of smoke." "This guy-- had enough he shoots 2 witnesses, now he throws a body in the trunk just to throw us off his trail?" "Put yourself in his place." "He is trying to lock in a $100 million payday." "Don't equivocate." "He's a had guy." "Bad guys do what good guys dream." "I got a hit on our John Doe." "I sent his prints up to Canada." " Michael Carson." " That tattoo he had?" "Prison tattoo." "A Canadian prison— Archambault, up in Montreal." "Carson spent two years in cell block D for possession with intent." "That's why he was wearing new clothes." "Whoever shot him didn't want his old clothes traced back to Canada." " How did you...?" " The guy with the body art?" "He's got biker friends up there." "Carson's parole officer hasn't seen him since a week ago last Thursday." "Meaning he came down here Thursday night or Friday." "Being a felon, he would've avoided going through customs at the airport." "That leaves the train, where inspections are more lax." "He would've arrived on the train from Montreal last Thursday or Friday with luggage, computer equipment, that sort of thing." "Yeah, I seen this boy Friday afternoon." "Helped him with his bags." "Black canvas bags." "He would have been a good tipper, but he had this friend with him." " He was traveling with somebody?" " No, somebody met him." " You catch a name?" " Jake." "Pretty sure it was Jake." "Thank you." "There he is." "Jacob Nathan." "Forgery, possession of stolen goods, larceny" "And tight with his money, too." " Where are we?" " We struck out on his last known." " He hasn't lived there for at least 2 years." " We will, ma'am." "His ex is looking for him, too." "Owes her a brick in child support." "This bail app from six years ago?" "His mother put up the bond." "There's an address on her." " Let me see that." " Have her social there?" "The feebs have been notified." "They're taking care of Interpol notification." "Give me a status in an hour." " Mother Nathan, deceased seven months ago." " Poor guy's an orphan." "Somebody forgot to tell Con Ed." "The power bill's paid up and current." "Come on, move it!" "Clear!" "Clear!" "Clear!" " Check the trash rooms, the dumpsters." " Yes, sir." "Let's go, guys, move it!" "It's a laminating machine." "Forger's friend." "Nathan must have left it behind." " Serial number's still on it." " We could trace it to the store." "I can't find it, man!" "I looked everywhere." "Damn it, I'm a jerk." " I must have left it behind." " Can't you get another one?" "I need it, man!" "I need it to make the passports." "Don't even think about it." "Buy another one." "I'm not spending another $500 bucks on something I already bought." "You listen to me, you cheap bastard." "You go anywhere near that place," "I'm gonna put a bullet in your skull." "You got a quarter share of a $100 million coming, you can front $500 bucks." "All right, but when are we gonna see our dough, man?" " I gotta get out of here." " I am working on the problem." "You work on yours!" "Hello?" "Can I help you?" "Yeah, I called about the laminating machine." "Name's Jake." "Oh, yeah, sure." "I got it in the back." "It's $549." "I bought one here a month ago for $500." "And now it's $549." "Think about it." "How you doing there, Jake?" "Death penalty?" "What the hell for?" "Do I need to explain the felony murder statute to your client?" "I didn't kill anybody!" "The Kersten girl and her boyfriend." " Michael Carson, Jimmy Randazzo." " That wasn't me." " And who the hell is Jimmy Randazzo?" "!" " Funny thing, the law." "Right hand commits the murder, left hand pays for it." "How can my client help himself here?" "Names and addresses," "I take the death penalty off the table." "Life without parole?" "That's pretty steep." "He's got no record of violence." "He does now." "And the offer's not going to hold." "We found him, we'll find the others, with or without his help." "Life, death, you choose." "It's Atwood." "It's Carl Atwood." "The other guy I only know as Ziv." "But he's the main guy, Atwood." "He's got the goods." " Where can we find him?" " I don't know." "He lives on the Upper East Side with his girlfriend." "Her name is Gia... something Italian." "I got a cell phone number on him." "The number." "Atwood and the girl, they been together long?" "Yeah, I think so." "They got some act, those two." "Carl Atwood, 38, priors for armed robbery, assault, home invasion robbery." "Convictions in New York State, Pennsylvania, Florida and Montreal." " Archambault prison?" " 18 months for attempted hijack of an armored truck." " Same time-frame as Carson." " Atwood was deported back here 6 months ago." " Thank you, Canada." "What about the girl?" " Nothing in the file." " That cell phone number's cribbed." " Can we use it to get Atwood?" "The phone company can triangulate a call to the phone." " We'll need a warrant." " I'll handle it." "Hey, it's me." "Passports are done." " Okay." " They look good." "So when's the deal goin' down?" "Cell M67." "East Side, north of 57th." "East Side, north of 57th." "I said I'd page you." "What're you doing calling me?" "I'm watching Oprah and eating Cheetos all day." " I just need to know how much longer." " Couple days." "East 62nd, 100 block." "East 62nd, Park and Lex." " Get off the phone." " Wait, wait, wait." "I need to know what birth date to put on her passport?" "I thought you said they were done." "Well, I need to know what birth date." "136 East 62nd." "136 East 62nd." "Figure it out." "These two, where do they live?" "12H." "The place is empty." "Check the stairwell and basement." " Stay here." " Okay." "Don't move." "Up against the wall." "He left you in the lurch, Gia." "He left you to take the rap for 4 murders." "That's a needle in your arm." "You're letting him run?" "You didn't run, did you, when he was in prison up in Montreal?" "In prison with Michael Carson." " The autopsies just came in." " Thanks." "Sophie Kersten." "The daughter of the people who lived in the apartment." "19 years old." "Your boyfriend put a bullet in her brain." "This is her boyfriend." "We think we was shot while trying to protect her." "That's what boyfriends are supposed to do." "Michael Carson." "The Medical Examiner found..." "Evidence of frequent anal sex." "This is Atwood's preferred sexual act... isn't it?" "It's his way of dominating his partner." "Have you been tested for AIDS?" "Why should I?" "Michael Carson was HIV positive." "According to this, for at least a year." "During time he and Atwood were having relations." "That's not true." "Page four." "Would you like to get tested?" "You are aware they had a sexual relationship?" "Your boyfriend was in prison a relatively short time..." "But he couldn't control his sexual needs." "You blamed yourself, didn't you?" "That you couldn't hold onto his loyalty and desire for 18 months." "If I'm wrong in my evaluation, Ms. DeLuca, please tell me." "He's betrayed you before, hasn't he?" "But he always came back." "And you told yourself it was because you're the one he loves." "But he's never told you that he loved you, has he?" "Not in a way that would make you believe him." "He makes demands on you." "Demands during lovemaking." "Demands that leave you unsatisfied." "And you always submit, which for that reason he trusts you completely." "You submit..." "Because you hope to earn his love and loyalty." "Those hopes can only remain unfulfilled, because Carl Atwood is a narcissist." "He's incapable of loving you..." "Or anyone else." "He seeks out partners to satisfy his needs." "Ms. DeLuca, I have to be honest with you." "There's virtually no chance that you're not infected." "People with AIDS rarely survive long prison sentences." "The treatments in a maximum security prison are limited." "But if you cooperate with us, we can take steps to improve your long-term outlook." "You have given him everything..." "And this is how he repaid you." "This is Ms. DeLuca's attorney." "I want to talk to her alone." " AIDS, tough break." " Tougher if it was true." "You think she believed it?" "We better come up with another way of finding Atwood." "We searched the apartment, her purse-- no leads to him or the merchandise." "What about the other one, the Serbian?" "Casten Zivkovic." "He's overstayed his visa, along with a million other people we can't find." "Release his and Atwood's picture to the media." "Put some pressure on them, hope they slip up." "We got her." "That's her blink." "You get in any trouble, you call me." "Gia, you're not out of the woods yet!" " You released her?" " We made a deal with her." "She gives us Atwood and the diamonds, she gets 5 years minimum security with full medical treatment." " What's wrong with her?" " Detective Goren convinced her Atwood gave her AIDS." " That's how we flipped her." " But you have her under surveillance." "No." "She'll contact us." "It was the only way we could get her to cooperate." "She won't run, Ms. Lewin." "Do you trust his judgment?" "On this, yes, I do." "Should I trust yours?" "54th between 6th and 7th." " They didn't plant nothing on me." " Shut up." "Stupid enough to get pinched, stupid enough to let them put a signal on you." "What are they waiting for?" "Baby, trust me." "They let you go, you bitch." "What'd you do, get on your knees and give them a hummer, huh?" "I told them what they wanted to hear." "It doesn't matter." "It got me here with you." "They're police." "They set you up." "They tried-- they tried to mess with my head." "They told me that Carson's got AIDS..." "And that you got the bug from him and that you gave it to me." "They think I bought it but I didn't." "I should get out now." " I should leave you right here and get out." " Don't be like that, baby." "No." "Whatever you want..." "I'll do it." "Come here." "You say you don't believe them?" "Prove it." "Come on, baby." "Come on." "Yeah?" "They'll be here in 15 minutes." "Banco Nazionale." "That's got to be more money than that whole country's worth." "Your turn." "The furthest south I've ever been is Cancun." "I found some damned lizards in my hotel room." "Maid said they were good luck." "Must've worked... 'cause if this isn't luck," "I don't know what is." "I may not spend all this money in my lifetime, but I'm going to try" "Drop the gun and the bag." "Drop it!" "You're under arrest, Atwood." " You have the right to remain " " Yeah, yeah, yeah." " You stupid bitch." " We're both dead anyway." "You killed us." "Think again, Gia." "You got a long and healthy life ahead of you." "I lied." "Sorry." "Let's go." "Once she got her hands on this, why she didn't run" "It wasn't about that." "It was about him." "Men come and go, but diamonds" "Diamonds don't keep you warm at night."
