" Where is he?" " Where's who?" "Meldrick Lewis." "Your partner." "You remember him?" " He's on suspension." " Yeah?" "I've been by his house." "Wanna tell me where he's at?" "I don't know." "He was going to get cigarettes a week ago." " He don't smoke." " I know." "Go figure." "I bet you right now Meldrick's lying on some beach in Belize, happy as a scallop." "The last time a detective from this unit was missing, we fished his body out of the harbour." " That's nice, Munch." "Thank you." " Is there a problem, gentlemen?" "Mike's getting worked up over Meldrick." "He's not at home, he didn't call in, he left here without saying goodbye." "First, there was a wrongful death civil suit." "Then there was assault charges and then indefinite suspension." "Think he'd hang around for a farewell celebration?" " I wanna know that he's OK." " There she is!" " The lovely and talented Terri Stivers!" " Reporting for duty, Lieutenant." " Now she can take Lewis's desk." " What?" "For once the gods of rotation have smiled upon us." "As of today, Terri Stivers is a full and official member of our homicide squad." "So you finally made the murder police, huh?" "Finally is right." " Congratulations." " Thanks." " Is this supposed to be a coincidence?" " Sorry?" "Lewis gets suspended." "You show up one week later." "That's awfully convenient." "It works out well for you." " I don't know what you mean." " Don't get too comfortable." "Welcome to Homicide." "Father Michael Juneaux." "51 years old." "He's a priest." " Who found him?" " Another priest." "A Father Klaske." "He went next door to the church." "We need to ask him questions." " He's kinda, like, praying." " Heaven can wait." "Homicide can't." "OK, Cox." "Your turn." "Looks like multiple stab wounds to chest, neck and shoulders." "Plus there was a severe blow to the head with a blunt object." " My guess is that." " Chicken chow mein." "They knocked him unconscious, bound him to the chair, then they started stabbing." " They?" " Stu, you speak Spanish?" "Not since high school." "Why?" "I was hoping to get a translation here." ""Enseñanos a vivir de vera." "Dios de amor."" "Something about a god of love." "Enseñanos means to teach." ""Teach us to live, God of Love."" ""Perdona." "Perdona."" "Forgive." "Forgive." " Klaske's ready for you." " I'll talk to him." " You done?" "Can I cut the body?" " Go to it." ""Teach us how to truly live." ""God of Love." "Forgive." "Forgive."" " So you lived with Father Juneaux?" " We shared the rectory." "Michael led the congregation." "I run the hospice across the street." " I was there last night." " Until what time?" "Around 8:00 this morning." "When I came home, the door was unlocked." " It's usually locked?" " Michael hated that." "He wanted folks to feel welcome here any time." "That's how it was 20 years ago, but in this neighbourhood it's no longer an option." "Is it possible that Father Juneaux invited his attackers in?" "I may run the hospice, but of the two of us, he was always the more hospitable, perhaps to a fault." "What do you mean?" "Are you familiar with the CFCA, Detective?" "Catholic Friends of Central America." "It's a support organisation, helping refugees find jobs, places to live." "Michael was on the board." "Often, if there wasn't housing available, he'd let people stay at the rectory." "Two Guatemalan refugees, Pedro and Luis, have been with us 3 weeks." " Where are they now?" " I couldn't find them." "Victim is Father Michael Juneaux." "He was stabbed to death in the rectory of his own church, somewhere between the hours of 9:00 and 11:00 last night." "Father Juneaux was pastor of St Raphael's and chairman of the Peace and Justice Committee of the Priests' Council, and as of last June, central city vicar of the Diocese of Baltimore." "Some résumé." "He also sat on the board of the Catholic Friends of Central America." "That's where these two come in." "We have Luis Carranza on the left and Pedro Velez on the right, both 16." "Pedro and Luis are first cousins." "They left Guatemala a month ago." "They've been staying at the rectory as guests of the victim." " So they're suspects?" " Potential suspects." "And probable witnesses." "Now the rectory door was unlocked." "$300 was missing from the downstairs safe." "It seems that Pedro and Luis were home at the time of the murder, so if they're not responsible, they can probably tell us who is." "This Spanish that was found." "Is it a message?" "Yeah, it could be." "Could mean nothing." "We have no way of knowing." "Find the refugees." "Ask them directly." "We spoke with a Sister Dyanne Attwood at the CFCA, and no one there has heard from Pedro or Luis." " Important call for you." " Bayliss is on vacation." "Pembleton, work with Stivers and take some interviews." "Munch, get a hold of Kellerman." "Cover the bus and train stations." " We don't want them leaving town." " Got it." "And somebody track down Falsone." "We haven't had a priest murdered in this city since 1972." "I've heard from the mayor." "The mayor's heard from the cardinal." "Now let's bring in our sinners before the pope comes calling." " Grab your coat." "Let's go." " Where to?" "Channel 11 have news on Father Juneaux." " Oh, live, local and late-breaking." " Let's hope so." "Tochterhagen." " You made it." " Of course, I made it." "I had a good night's sleep, ate a healthy breakfast." " Ready for round one." " Hey!" "This is a custody deposition not a prize fight." " How long is this gonna last?" " We're waiting on your ex." "It shouldn't take more than three hours." "Three hours?" "Do they want my whole life story?" " Pretty much, yeah." " Why don't we skip to my heroin years?" "The priest murder is scheduled as our lead segment." "We'll start with a profile of Father Juneaux, followed by an update on the investigation." "So what's the problem?" "An hour ago, this tape arrived via messenger." "I thought you should take a look." "'Good afternoon." "My name is Swami Ajay Prabhunanda." "'Leader of Mother Kirmani's Church of Holy Serenity.'" "Swami Prabhunanda?" "'I am contacting your organisation 'following the sudden and unfortunate murder of Father Michael Juneaux." "'One year ago, Father Juneaux came to me in search of counselling." "'He was greatly distressed over physical relations 'he had developed with certain young male parishioners, 'as well as political refugees." "Upon hearing of his violent demise... '" " Who is this guy?" " Hold on." "'You see, the Father was not murdered." "He was martyred.'" "Turn this off." "Turn it off." "Does he have any evidence?" "Prabhunanda goes on to name eight or nine people." "The boys themselves, colleagues, other clergy." "He claims they'll confirm his story." " We'll have to take this tape." " I can give you a copy." "You're not planning on including this in your coverage?" " We're following through on names." " He's a priest!" "Why do you think I called you?" "I don't want to damage his reputation, but I have a job to do." "OK." "Can I get that copy now?" "It's a waste of time." "If Luis and Pedro slipped past the US Border Patrol, they'll sneak past us." "Uniforms will cover the trains." "We'll check out the bus station." "We'll be back by cocktail hour." " I'd rather be looking for Meldrick." " So would I." " You would?" " Yes, I would." "Just because he's booted out doesn't mean we don't have a bar to run." "If he thinks I'll cover his shifts, he's got another thing coming." "So what are we thinking?" "You hear "Catholic priest" these days, it's the first thing you think." " What is?" " Somethin' less than godly goin' down." "What do we know about Father Juneaux?" "Only that he's been an ordained priest for close to 30 years." "He's spent his life helping people, the poor, the sick, homeless, refugees." "And now because some lunatic in a turban comes along..." " I thought the same thing." " You thought what?" " It went through my mind." " Do you know what?" "Once in a blue moon, some priest misbehaves, and the media blows it up into an everyday occurrence." "No." "This is what happens when someone lives a decent moral life." "People get threatened." "They gotta add some sin to the mix." " Oh, that's what we're doing?" " Look, I am not naive, all right?" "I know stuff happens." "It's just..." " Never mind." "You can't understand." " Why?" "Because I'm not Catholic?" "Last summer, the archdiocese of Dallas paid out over $120 million to ten altar boys who had been abused by one priest." "I know that's the exception, but that doesn't mean Juneaux was exempt." "We have to look into the charges." "We have to go to the sources." "At least see if this Swami is legit." "If this guy is a fraud, then fine." "And if Father Juneaux was as pious as we would all like to believe, then great, terrific, thank God!" "But what if he wasn't?" "What if he had a thing for young boys?" "That makes this case different, and Pedro and Luis had some other motive." "That makes this much more than robbery murder." "Well, let's go to the refugee centre." "Stu?" "You drive." "I got a headache." " How long have you been a detective?" " Since '94." "What did you earn this past year?" "32." "Oh, but that's cos I was workin' Auto till May." " I moved to Homicide and got a raise." " To?" " $34,000." " Congratulations." "How much does your son know about your new job?" " Well, he knows I'm a cop." " That's it?" " At his age, that's all he should know." " Agreed." "So can you explain why, after spending a recent weekend in your care," "Daniel turned to his mother and said, and I quote," ""Daddy touches dead people."" " He didn't say that." " Yes, he did." " He picks up on things like a radar." " Exactly." "Can we move on?" " Do you live alone, Detective?" " Yes." " Do you have a girlfriend?" " Not right now, no." "How many partners have you had in the last year?" "32." "32?" "Oh!" "It's a joke." "I'm joking." "It's the same number as my old salary." "I'm pleased you find these proceedings so amusing." "I wonder if you'd approach raising a child with that level of seriousness." "Hey, I'm a good father!" "If that's the case, you're doing very little to convince us." "I make Daniel laugh." " Shall we return to the questions?" " No!" "I crack my kid up." "That's more important than how much money I earn!" "How many partners have you had?" " None." " In the past year?" "None." "Zero." "Zilch." "Is it so hard to believe?" "Your aunt's name is Maria Santiago?" "Sister Dyanne?" " I'm Sister Dyanne." " I'm Detective Gharty." "This is Detective Ballard." "We spoke on the phone earlier." "I haven't heard from Luis or Pedro." "I promised I'd call." "We're here about something else." "Do you know a man named Swami Prabhunanda?" " Never heard the name." " He knows yours." "He sent a tape to Channel 11, accusing Father Juneaux of abusing altar boys and young refugees." " He said you could confirm his story." " What?" " You can't confirm the Swami's story?" " Of course not." "We worked together for the past six years." "In that time I've sent dozens of refugees to stay at the rectory." "Men, women, girls and boys." "We've never had a single complaint." "They all loved Michael." " Including Pedro and Luis?" " Especially Pedro and Luis." "Thank you, Sister." "Hi, sweetie." "Thank you." "All right, let's go talk to those boys." "I don't know, Pembleton." "Does that Swami look Indian to you?" "It's hard to tell off the video." "He's Indian like I'm Norwegian!" "Hey, you are right!" "Swami Ajay Prabhunanda, also known as Walter Norton." "Two counts indecent exposure." "One false report, and er... bingo!" " 633 Wolfe Street." "Apartment 8D." " I'll page Ballard." "We watched your video." "We have a few questions." " Please, call me Swami." " OK, Swami." "Mother Kirmani's Church of Holy Serenity." " How come I've never heard of it?" " We are a small congregation." " So do you have a church?" " You're standing in it." "The statement you made against Father Juneaux is very serious." " Indeed." " You have evidence to back it up?" "You have records of the counselling sessions?" "Father Juneaux requested the utmost privacy." "He knew he was committing the sins, but he couldn't help himself." " Is your real name Walter Norton?" " My name is Ajay Prabhunanda." "It's Walter Norton." "You were arrested for indecent exposure in '93." "Why are you lying to us, Walter?" "Why would you slander the reputation of a murdered priest?" "I am trying to aid in the investigation." "So then you wouldn't mind taking a polygraph test?" " A lie detector?" " Yeah." "Oh, no, no, no, no." "I don't think I could do so, detectives." "Why not?" " It's against my religion." " Yeah, well, that's convenient." "When my client last visited your house, a young man answered the door." " Was he your boyfriend?" " Yes." "Terry Brown." "Is that the same Terry Brown who was arrested on October 10th 1996 while driving under the influence?" "It is." "What if next time, my son's in that car with him?" " There won't be a next time." " Oh, no?" "We broke up." "Two teenage Guatemalans." "You seen them?" "You sure?" "Thank you." "Maybe Meldrick got on one of these buses." "He's probably pulling into New Orleans in time for the Jazz Fest." "Either that or we'll fish him out of the harbour." "Sometimes I say things I shouldn't." "I'm not worried about Meldrick being suicidal." "It's Georgia Rae." "I wouldn't put anything past the woman." "She's a nut job." "Gate B." " I'll go around the back." " OK." "Stop!" "Police!" "Goddamn!" "On your knees!" "Get down!" "Down!" "Get down!" "On your knees!" "Hands behind your head!" "What else can we do to piss off the cardinal?" "Something the matter?" "I have just had my third visit from Colonel Barnfather." "According to him, certain members of this squad have been talking to Father Juneaux's colleagues, to his congregation, spreading lewd and insensitive rumours." "Well, you saw the Swami's tape." "We had to check it out." "Check it out is acceptable." "Shout it around is not." "The local news was about to air these allegations." " We ask questions, we get answers." " Such as?" "For starters, there's no Church of Holy Serenity in Baltimore." "And Swami Prabhunanda's real name is Walter Norton." "He attended the St Ferdinand seminary along with Father Juneaux in the late 60s, but was never ordained." "In fact, he was expelled after one year for what the seminary reported as mental difficulties." "We spoke to each of the boys named on the tape." "All insist Father Juneaux never touched 'em." "And our friends at Channel 11?" "They promised to run their original story, so Father Juneaux's reputation will remain unscathed, and Colonel Barnfather and the cardinal can rest easy." "They'll rest easy when we've made an arrest." " Could this Swami be a suspect?" " We haven't ruled that out." "Why haven't we found the refugees?" "We have, Gee!" "Ladies and gentlemen, Luis Carranza and Pedro Velez." "We nabbed 'em trying to board a bus to Toronto." "Bienvenidos, mis amigos!" " You don't want that translator, Luis?" " I can speak English." " So you a Catholic, Luis?" " Yes." " Me, too." "You religious?" " L-l-I think." "Uh-huh." "So you know the routine, "Bless me Father for I have sinned." ""It's been six months since my last confession."" "Whoa!" "Wait!" "What's going on?" "Pedro and Luis will not answer any questions until I instruct them." "Excuse me?" "Gee?" "You both know Sister Dyanne." "Dyanne will be here for these interviews." "Citizens or no, my clients have the right to representation." "Your clients?" "Notre Dame Law School, class of '89." "Don't look so alarmed." "It is possible to practise law and still have a soul." "So?" "Shall we continue?" "Hello, Father Juneaux hot line." "Gentlemen, take a look at these." "Gee, Naomi said you want to speak to me." "I don't know about Auto, but in this hive, I'm the queen bee." "In the middle of a red ball, I need to know my workers are making honey." "Now where were you this morning from nine until noon?" "At Duffy, Strauss  Zaymore." "I'm suing for custody of my kid." " You have a kid?" " A son, Daniel." "I was ready to spend whatever time it took to get him back, but unless I have a better job, a bigger apartment, by this time next month, I lose." "This hearing is this month?" "Meldrick, he was supposed to be my character witness." "What good is a testimony from a cop who's been suspended?" "I might as well give up." " Maybe you should." " What?" "When my wife died, I had to raise my three children myself." "It was no picnic." " Have you thought about chicken pox?" " Sure." " Bad dreams?" " Sure." " Black eyes?" "Broken heart?" " Bring 'em on." "That's just the easy stuff." "I'm scared out of my briefs, but if I'm not there who will be?" "His mum's next excuse for a boyfriend?" "No!" "A kid needs his father." " I'll be your character witness." " You will?" "Now go and make me some honey." "I'm sorry to bother you, Mrs Lewis." "I'm just looking for your son." "You don't?" "He hasn't?" "Well, look..." "No, no, no." "I will." "OK, you, too." "All right." "Bye-bye." " That Meldrick's mom?" " Yeah." " She heard from him?" " No." " Father Michael was good to us." " He never did anything inappropriate?" "Oh..." "He never hurt us." "Why would we hurt him?" "For money maybe." "You thought you'd take a donation from the church fund." " You stabbed him for $300." " Easy, Detective!" "We would not do that!" "On your shoe is Father Juneaux's blood." "I touched his body." "I tried to help him." "You wrote a message on his blackboard in Spanish." ""Enseñanos a vivir de vera." "Dios de amor." "Perdona." "Perdona."" "Was that a clue, a confession?" " No." "That was for a lesson." " What lesson?" "Father Michael wrote the poem himself." "He wanted to give parts of his sermon in Spanish, so he asked us to teach him." "Oh." "Were you at the rectory last night, Pedro?" " "Don't send me back." "Please."" " To Guatemala." ""I can't go home." "There's nothing for me in my country." ""I love Baltimore." "I love America." "I love..."" "Yeah, I got that part." "Pedro, are you ready for this?" "Unless you tell me where you were last night, you and Luis are on the first boat back." "You can't threaten him with that!" "If you choose not to translate that, we have a interpreter waiting." ""Me and Luis were upstairs watching MTV." "The volume was loud." ""Luis went to the kitchen to get a soda." "I heard Luis scream."" ""When I ran downstairs, I saw Father Juneaux." "Bloody, beaten."" "Why did you run?" ""We knew that the police would think that we did it."" "What did he say?" ""Please don't send me back." ""If you send me back, I will kill myself."" " He threatened suicide?" " He's terrified!" " So is Luis." " That's reason to let them go?" "Put yourself in their position, Detective." "16 years old." "You've been pronounced an enemy of your own government." "If you stay, you'll be thrown in prison, or worse, assassinated." "So you escape over the border and east to Baltimore." "Then the one man who lets you into his home, gets brutally murdered one floor..." "That's one scenario, but I can think of another." " Luis and Pedro killed Father Juneaux!" " Based on what evidence?" "The leucomalachite tests were positive on Pedro's shirt and Luis's shoes." " They touched the body." " They were in the rectory." "And other than that?" "Your mysterious message turns out to be a Spanish lesson." "The abuse charges are bogus." "Pedro and Luis were living at the house." " Any fingerprints can be explained." " Even off the murder weapon?" "Can of chow mein came up clean." "We have no knife." "We need some more time, Gee." "One or two days, maybe a week." "You'll hold them on speculation?" " Ed?" " Sister Dyanne is right." "We don't have enough evidence to hold Luis and Pedro as suspects." "We could, however, keep them in custody as material witnesses." "What?" "This is the United States, counsellor, not Guatemala!" " You can't lock up witnesses." " You can if they're a flight risk." "They were upstairs from the crime scene." "Their testimony is crucial." "If there is a trial, they'll be willing, but till that time, they can stay on my sofa." "A kind offer, Sister Dyanne, but considering they were apprehended trying to cross into Canada, it would be better if they remained under police supervision." "The diocese is not going to accept this." "You'll be hearing from us soon, Lieutenant." "Why do I get the feeling that woman means what she says?" "¶... a gift to come down" "¶ Where we ought to be" "¶ And when we find ourselves In a place just right... ¶" "You're early for happy hour, Kellerman." "We don't open till 5:00." " Is this your shift?" " It is now." "I'm covering for Meldrick." "He hasn't been around." "When's the last time you saw him?" "After closing Friday." "He was rambling on and on about Georgia Rae Mahoney." " He broke her nose." "Got suspended." " Did he say why he hit her?" "Something about a civil suit, and her uncivil brother, Luther." " Did he mention me at all?" " He might have." "I was cashing out." "Only half listening." "He left around 5:00am and, like I said, he has not been back." "Great." "You look like you could use a drink." " I thought you were closed." " I'll make an exception." "¶ The gift to be simple Is the gift to be free" "¶ Is a gift to come down" "¶ Where we ought to be" "¶ And when we find ourselves In a place just right... ¶" "Jeez!" "That's a lot of Catholics, huh?" "Then again I guess there are a lot of Catholics." "Here." "Should we brave the storm?" "I bet Gee's having a hysterical fit." "I ever tell you I thought about becoming a priest?" " Really?" " That's funny to you?" "No, no." "I was just..." "I was picturing you in the robes, in the white collar thing." "It works, actually." "Sort of a cross between Bing Crosby and that guy with the TV show." "Well, better a black robe than a white apron." "My father was a butcher." "His father was a butcher." "I worked in the meat lockers after school all day Saturday." "But on Sundays we went to church." "Sundays, instead of pork loins and rump cuts, there were candles, incense, stained glass." "And our priest, Monsignor Garvey, he was this wonderful man." "Ah, with silvery white hair and a thick Irish brogue." "Everything he said seemed to make sense." "I thought I'd go straight from high school into the seminary." "Why didn't you?" "I met my wife." "'In a service this morning at the Church of the Holy Innocents," "'Cardinal Gerald McGilvery prayed for a speedy resolution 'of the investigation into Father Juneaux's murder, 'and called for the release of two Guatemalan refugees in police custody." "'The refugees, who shall remain nameless, 'are being retained as material witnesses 'to yesterday's fatal stabbing." "'Addressing a crowd of more than 300," "'Sister Dyanne Attwood, director of Catholic Friends of Central America, 'and the refugees' lawyer, 'announced the establishment of a fund to help pay for her clients' release." "'Bail is set at $100,000.'" "'We work together for that cause to which Father Juneaux gave his life, 'the cause for which Jesus died." "'For the liberation of all people who are poor, powerless and helpless.'" "Regardless of what atrocities might've been committed..." "Those people think Pedro and Luis are innocent." "To prove otherwise, we have to act fast." "Those refugees haven't been in custody 24 hours, and look at the uproar." " Not long before they make bail." " What do we do?" "We won't get any more out of the Guatemalans themselves." "Re-canvass the neighbourhood." "Find the knife." " OK." "What about that tip-line?" " It's just what you'd expect." ""My dog did it." "My cat did it." "The devil made me do it."" " We haven't yet checked this morning." " Then check." "If the devil is behind this, I want him in the Box." " Father Thomas Walcott?" " Yes." "We're with the Baltimore Police, Homicide Unit." "You called about Father Juneaux." "We got your message on our tip-line." "Know something about this case?" "Yes." "I think you should let those Spanish boys go." "Is that all?" "One week ago, Tuesday night around 10:30," "I heard a knock at my door." "I answered with the chain on, of course, and saw three young men standing outside." "Two waited at the back." "The one at the door asked to use my phone." "And you let him?" "I offered to dial the number." "The one at the back objected." "He said, "Forget it, Roc-Roc." "Let's move on."" "Now the name stuck in my mind." "I never met anyone named Roc-Roc." "Did they leave then?" "I went inside, placed the call, but there was no answer." "When I went back to the door, they had gone." " Get a good look at them?" " Enough to know they weren't Spanish." "Could you identify Roc-Roc if you had to?" " I could try." "It was dark outside." " Right." "Is that your crew?" "Take a hike with us, huh?" "Come on, man." "Come on." " Let's bring this thing." " Come on, bud." "So, Roc-Roc, you recognise this place?" "I seen it." " Seen it last Tuesday night?" " No." "You were with two guys, looking for a phone." "You knock here." "I said no!" "So where were you then?" "Tuesday?" "Visitin' my grandmom up at Bon Secours." "Is it about that priest that got killed?" "Cos I didn't no nothin'." "There's somebody I'd like you to meet." "Yeah, come on." "Come on, Roc-Roc." "Come on, come on." "Come on, Roc-Roc." " Yes?" " Father Walcott, it's Detective Ballard." "Do you recognise this man?" "I don't." "No." "Can I go now?" "Cos y'all wasting' my time." "You can go." "Nice dress." "Oh, hey!" "Yo, Seattle." "Toxicology on Juneaux came back clean." "Stivers and I re-scoured the rectory." " Tell me you found the knife." " No, we didn't." "And the lead on the tip-line dried up." "We're in worse shape than we were this morning." "Don't look so hopeless." "You'll put this case down." "Have faith." "Oh, wrong choice of words, Pembleton." "I listen to Sister Dyanne and company, and half the time I think that they are dead wrong." "Luis and Pedro probably killed Father Juneaux." "And the other half?" "The other half of me thinks that maybe something's wrong with me." "Like I'm some evil person." "Like I can't see the light or I have no soul." "Well, hang on now." "This woman with AIDS, you weren't that way with her." "Maybe that's the problem." "Maybe it's easier for me to imagine what it's like to be dying of AIDS than what it means to believe in God." " So you're lucky." " Why?" "OK, let me and Gharty and the rest of us box with God." "In this work, be it a mutilated priest or an overdosed drug addict, faith only gets in your way." "If you don't have the Almighty to reckon with, you're fortunate, Detective." "Ignore everybody else." "Work this case the way you need to." "And consider yourself blessed." "Right." "See you upstairs." "'The second day of the Juneaux murder investigation draws to a close, 'amid growing criticism from the Catholic community 'for the Baltimore Police Department." "'Two Guatemalan refugees held as material witnesses remain behind bars, 'while the police have yet to identify either motive or suspects.'" " Do you like banana bread, Detective?" " Father Klaske." "Our parishioners have been stopping by with food." "I can't eat it all myself." "You wanted to preach at us about Pedro and Luis." "Talk to you." "Do you have a minute?" " Hey, kiddo!" " He's got an ear infection." " Are you sick?" " My ear hurts." "Sweetheart, we can go home." "I'm sure it's nothin' a triple fudge sundae at Bailey's can't cure, right?" "Gimme five." "All right!" "Here's his antibiotic." "He takes it three times a day." " Say bye to Mommy, Dan." " Bye." "Feel better, baby." " Call me if you need me." " OK." "Be on time on Sunday." " 6:00." " Last week you were late." "He'll be there." "Come in, everyone." "Quickly, please." "Al, I've come back from a meeting with the cardinal." " How is the cardinal?" " A lot happier than he was earlier." "We've agreed to release Luis and Pedro." "Don't bother to argue." "I've already covered every angle." " Not every angle." " Excuse me?" "Father Klaske came to see me earlier today." "He said he has had doubts about the refugees since before the murder." " Did Father Klaske get more specific?" " He said they made him uneasy." "You want me to counter the mayor's wishes with that vagary?" "In the past 24 hours the CFCA has raised over $30,000 towards their bail." "Soon they'll have collected the rest." "These two are walking either way." "Ha!" "Pedro and Luis will be running across the border." "We'll be roaming in the desert." "No." "The Guatemalans signed affidavits agreeing to stay in the area." "They'll remain under the close supervision of the CFCA." "Should you find sufficient evidence to charge them, they'll be back within ten minutes." "Yeah, right." "Sister Dyanne Attwood is Luis and Pedro's closest ally." "Let's at least put 'em under police surveillance." "I'm sorry, Al." "The decision's been made by greater powers than you or me." "Whatever happened to the separation of church and state?" "Pedro and Luis are leaving Central Booking as we speak." "You released them already?" "Listen, Detective, if I were you," "I'd spend less time worrying about the refugees' whereabouts, and a lot more time gathering evidence." "We're having a press conference in half an hour."
