"Hey, Cat?" "Yeah, babe?" "I got a guy." "No." "I got him up to $90." "We got another show." "I'll be right back." "He's a sailor." "You're not a whore, you're an actress." "You're an angel." "It's $90." "Forget the bucks." "How are you feeling?" "Why are you always asking me that?" "I just hope you're feeling okay, that's all." "I feel okay." "I feel fine." "Cat?" "Can I go?" "You're gonna go whether I say yes or not." "I'll be back in 15 minutes, okay?" "Yeah." "I'll be waiting outside, okay?" "Okay." "It's gonna be great." "Watch it, lady." "Young man...." "Jackie." "Come on, baby, come on." "Let's go home." "It's time to go home now." "The ritual again included burning the victim's clothing." "The lab confirms a four to four-and-a-half inch blade... consistent with the previous victims." "Any signs of any kind of struggle?" "No." "What about those drawings?" "Psych report's pending." "All primary personnel are now on 1 2-hour shifts." "And all days off are cancelled till further notice." "Familiarize yourselves well." "This is our top priority." "Work the prostitute theory." "One of these women might be killing her customers." "Wonder if they painted each other?" "You're gonna hear from my lawyer." "Yeah, right." "You're gonna hear from my lawyer." "Did you get the killer?" "Come on." "Does this crackdown mean that you are gonna step up... the investigation on the Crayon Killer?" "Actually, we are recruiting for the bowling league." "We're looking for a few good men." "Yeah, like Two Tone here." "A guy who really knows how to keep himself out of the gutter." "Right, man?" "Beautiful." "Sonny, these killings are hurting everybody's business." "And there's some girls who's babies are not gonna eat tonight because... their dates are too frightened to come down here." "I'm not talking about myself." "I got some good stuff tucked away." "I'll take your word for it." "If I see anything, you'll be the first to know." "Thanks, honey." "Okay." "Behave." "So what do you do?" "I work." "What do you do?" "I work." "Yeah, I bet." "Ahem, well..." "I work at Sex World, but..." "I want to be an actress, so when I'm not there..." "I watch a lot of TV so that I can see what the other actresses are doing." "Tonight I was just out getting some air." "Uh-huh." "You got any ID?" "No." "Somebody took it when I was doing my act the other night." "But I think I know who it was." "What's your name?" "Jackie." "Jackie." "What's your last name, Jackie?" "McSeiden." "What's yours?" "Ricardo." "Nice to meet you." "Likewise." "So, when were you born, Jackie?" "Gonna send me a card?" "Maybe." "June 21, 1967." "I'm 18." "Are you sure?" "I'm sure." "You don't have to believe me." "Okay..." "I want you to take this number." "Give a call in the morning." "There'll be someone there that can... help you find a job and a place to stay." "I have a job." "They'll find you a better job." "Come on, just take it." "Look, even if you throw it away, just take it." "Do me a favor." "Whatever turns you on." "I got to go." "Damn." "What are you doing?" "That kid." "That's a woman in a miniskirt, not a kid." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "They just get younger every year." "Pal of mine, we just get older every year." "Yo, mama." "What it is?" "What are you doing, you packing it in?" "I'm packing, but I ain't taking it home." "I got to go downtown to run some backgrounds." "Add another one to your list." "What are you gonna do for me?" "Hey, woman." "Those clothes have gone to your head." "Give me that name." "Thanks." "Feels nice, Cat." "It always feels nice when we're together, baby." "But things have got to where we've got to make a change." "We can't let what happened ever happen again." "You're gonna have to stop it." "Stop what?" "Nothing, baby." "We're gonna have to leave this place." "Gonna have to make a brand-new start." "You know..." "I've been thinking." "I know this is gonna sound a little weird, but..." "I've been thinking, and the more I been thinking about it... the more I realize that maybe it wasn't...." "I don't want to let what we have slip away." "You know, life is short." "You know what I mean?" "That's why I want to say... will you marry me?" "What do you say, baby?" "Take our show on the road?" "I'm not ready to get married yet." "You know that." "And we have a home already." "Aren't you happy here?" "Yeah." "I'm happy here, baby." "Sonny?" "Gina." "I found someone you might want to talk to." "The key is to find magnetic north." "Then reception is no problem." "All the voices of the universe become one." "Gable knew it, Wells knew it." "All the stars knew it, and the Europeans." "You're absolutely right." "Don't fall in love." "She'll break your heart." "How you been doing, sweetheart?" "Hanging in there, handsome." "You know something?" "Truffaut and I were born on the same day." "No kidding." "Oh, yes." "Georgina... tell him about the guy you saw the night before last." "Was that a European movie?" "No." "Not a movie." "You know, the guy you saw waiting outside when the sailor got killed?" "Yes." "He walked right through my living room." "Do you know what he looked like?" "He was weird." "Very weird." "You know." "Would you like these?" "Isn't that nice?" "Thanks." "Big." "Blond." "Nervous." "Nearly knocked me down when he went in." "And then when he came out, he had someone with him." "But I wasn't paying attention because the landlady started screaming... and the cops were coming-- That's all right." "Do you suppose that you'd recognize him if you saw him again?" "I don't know." "I hope so, because he...." "I have something to give him." "Yes." "He dropped it when he came out." "I have it." "It's somewhere around here." "Where is it?" "Tubbs." "Got to be here." "I saw it." "Why can't I find something when I want it?" "I know it's here." "It's here." "I think I found it." "Here it is." "Found it." "Tubbs." "That's trash, it isn't art." "But that's what's selling these days." "Couple that just came in here." "2B." "Thank you." "Is it worth a beer to you?" "It sure is, darling." "You never bought me one that easy." "You never asked." "Jackie." "It's Ricardo." "Beat it." "Det." "Tubbs?" "Yeah." "Detective?" "Oh, jeez!" "This is not what you think." "This isn't what it looks like." "This is not what you think." "Don't take off your clothes." "It's quicker than posting bail." "I'm not gonna bust you." "Well, then, what do you want, Ricardo?" "Did you call that number?" "No, I tore that up." "Figures." "Look, I can take care of myself." "I have my own life... my own home." "Nobody can kick me out 'cause I pay my rent." "Yeah, I noticed." "Sex doesn't affect me." "I'm just a physical substitute." "I've been used to that my whole life." "Come on outside after you put your clothes on." "Here you go, darling." "You stay away from those Fifth Street winos." "I'm the jealous type." "You, sir, are a gentleman." "Don't tell anybody, you'll ruin my reputation." "You're also very lucky." "There's the fellow who dropped that picture." "Are you sure?" "Oh, yes." "He ain't a blonde." "It's him." "It's the artist." "Okay." "Okay." "So should I apologize for tearing up that piece of paper?" "Yeah." "Come on." "Sorry." "So?" "So how old are you?" "Old enough to know better." "Better than what?" "Let's go get something to eat." "Why?" "'Cause I'm hungry." "Yeah, I'm always hungry." "Where we going?" "Just going to get something to eat." "Hey, this isn't work." "Hey, thanks anyway." "Come on, baby, you come eat with me." "Excuse me." "Back off." "Stop it." "Stop it, Cat." "Lighten up." "I'm a cop." "I don't give a damn who you are." "Shut up." "You got nothing On Me, Man." "Good." "Just who I was looking for." "Nice job, Rico." "I don't know what you're doing, man." "You are getting arrested for assaulting an officer." "And that ain't all." "I'll tell you the rest on the way downtown." "I love you, Jackie." "Now you go home, you hear?" "You go home and you stay there." "Shut up." "I'm gonna sue you for false arrest." "Look..." "I don't know a thing about any damned drawings." "Don't damn me." "You're a liar." "What does Cat stand for?" "Stand for anything, man." "Cat-astrophy, Cat-atonic, Cat-scan." "Any kind of cat you got, I'm up for it." "Yeah." "That's the last thing I'm gonna say to you." "Where were you three nights ago... between 11:00 and 2:00?" "Look, man, we've been through this." "I told you, I was at the theater." "I'm a performer." "You got nothing on me, man." "This is rigged." "You're putting the finger on me just so some cop can steal my girl." "The person that gave us the drawing said... you were outside the hotel." "Maybe this person caught my act and they were dreaming about me." "Maybe they saw you drop that drawing on your way out." "After you killed that sailor." "It wasn't me." "No?" "No." "I don't go into those places." "No." "You just go around killing johns... while Jackie pays your rent on her back!" "No, damn it." "Tubbs." "He ain't gonna steal my girl." "He's not trying to." "You see, it bothers him... that someone so young is turning tricks." "Tell me about it, man." "There was this guy, he was gonna put her in a snuff flick." "You know, knight on a white horse thing?" "I saved her." "Look, I've tried to make her life the best I could." "You really love her?" "Yeah." "More than my own life." "I'm still waiting on questioned documents." "I got background on the McSeiden girl." "Both parents are dead." "She's been in a state orphanage since age 6, and she ran away a year ago." "Yeah." "That's worth a thank you, Trudy, or..." "All right." "...maybe dinner, wine." "Yeah, thanks, Trudy." "Thanks." "Listen." "Can you hold on just a second?" "What's so special about this kid?" "Look, I'm trying to get a rundown on this drawing we found last night." "And I'll have to talk to you later." "Yeah." "Fine." "Okay." "You got the prelims?" "On the drawing?" "It's a...." "It's a match." "Hey, man, thank you very much." "Very much." "Don't get your hopes up." "Cat's gonna walk." "Bag lady couldn't identify him from the line-up." "Man." "He's not right." "That doesn't make him the Ripper." "Come on." "Castillo wants to talk to us." "Hi." "Give me a minute." "Make it quick." "Hi." "What are you doing here?" "We never had that dinner." "I was wondering if you were still hungry." "Jackie, I'm working." "But I did want to talk to you." "Listen... can you get away from Cat?" "Sure." "Come here." "I'm gonna give you an address... of an apartment, and I want you to go there and spend the night." "I'll be by later on, okay?" "I'll be ready." "No, I don't mean it like that." "Here's the key." "I just don't think that you're safe with Cat." "Why?" "I'll explain later on tonight." "Whatever you say, Ricardo." "Jackie." "What are you doing here?" "Did you come to see him?" "You did, didn't you?" "Pal, let's take it to the street." "Get your hands off me, I'm free!" "Jackie!" "Sorry." "We were discussing Cat." "Give me your reading." "I think Cat's wrong, Lieutenant... and I think he should be watched." "So do I." "Then watch him." "And do your social work on the outside." "And they tried at five different foster homes." "Jackie always ended up back at the orphanage." "Doesn't say why." "But I can guess." "Can't say you haven't heard that one before." "Yeah, it's a sad song." "And every time I hear it, it's even sadder." "It's not number one on our charts, is it, Rico?" "God, you always bring me to the nicest joints." "No." "Hey, baby, don't move those cute little hips away so quickly." "No." "Cute thing like you, I could be jumping jack flash right here in the car." "$100." "Let's go." "All right." "Cat comes on in about 30 minutes." "And in an hour, and an hour-and-a-half." "The guy's a real trouper." "You sure you want to know how he and Jackie pay the rent?" "Jackie's at the 95th Street safe house." "I gave her the key." "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Sex World." "The world of the greatest pleasure, sex, you know what I mean?" "The pain and pleasure of hidden love." "Hey, Larry, there's somebody in that car." "Guess who, guys?" "Yeah, the lab says the stab wounds aren't more than an hour old." "If Cat can do this strapped to a stage... he's got a hell of a career ahead of him." "Jackie?" "Jackie?" "Hi." "How you doing?" "Okay." "I missed you." "You did?" "I brought you some fruit." "Great." "Here it is, Jackie." "Here." "Thank you." "Let's toast." "To what?" "I was thinking about you today, at work." "What about?" "I was thinking about you growing up in an orphanage." "And?" "And... why did you leave so soon?" "Ran away because I didn't like being there." "Shame on you." "You ran away?" "I'll be doggone." "They kept sending me to different foster homes." "So I left." "So none of the homes worked out?" "No." "They all had a little girl who died, and they couldn't have any more children." "Or they thought that having a kid... would make up for all the things that were wrong with their lives." "I was just a physical substitute." "They...." "They never wanted me for me, which I can understand." "What do you mean by that?" "I wasn't good enough to be loved." "Guess what we get to do tonight." "As long as it isn't paperwork." "MO files." "Jackie." "Baby?" "Jackie?" "Jackie?" "Jackie!" "You seen Jackie?" "I haven't seen anybody, man." "It's showtime." "You got a show to do later." "Yeah, but I can't go on without Jackie." "Showtime, baby." "Jackie!" "I love you!" "Give me back my girl!" "Ritualistic sketches suggest... obsessive component consistent with inadequate personality." "They actually pay somebody to write that?" "You want to go halves on a couch?" "Only if I can go to sleep on it." "Jackie?" "Baby, where you been?" "You didn't come to the show last night." "And you know I can't do it without you." "It doesn't matter what you say, Cat." "I'm leaving." "Where are you going?" "It doesn't matter." "I'm just going." "Hey, we got plans." "Hey, we're gonna go to L.A. We're gonna get married." "We'll do work out there, and we'll get to meet a lot of people." "You can't do it without me." "They'll catch on." "They'll hurt you." "He'll hurt you." "You know I'm right." "Jackie." "Jackie, I love you." "Cat, I'm sorry." "Thank you." "Thank you very much." "Wonderful." "Good news?" "Yeah, I got a couple of different halfway houses that'll take Jackie." "Tubbs." "Yeah?" "Someone left this downtown for you." "Who?" "I don't know." "There's a card in there." "Thanks." "I got to take care of something right now." "Good luck." "Yeah, Crockett." "It's Cat." "I'm gonna give you the deal of your life." "All right, let's hear it." "I'm gonna give you the killer." "Yeah." "On a silver platter." "You and your buddy will get your names in all the papers." "What's the deal?" "You forget about Jackie... and you leave us alone." "You understand?" "Okay." "Where are you?" "Meet me in an hour." "In the alley behind the Ardmore Hotel." "Look at you, you didn't even finish your sandwich." "I wasn't hungry." "Did you really like the flowers?" "Yeah." "I really liked the flowers." "We got to do some talking." "Okay." "About your future." "Well, I'm gonna stay here with you, right, Ricardo?" "You gotta have some new things happening in your life." "Now, I've already contacted a couple of places that are interested in talking to you." "Don't you want me?" "Yeah, I want to help you to help yourself." "You can change your life, Jackie." "I'm gonna take a couple of days off." "Tomorrow... you and I will get together and go check these places out." "What do you say?" "Okay." "Will you at least stay here with me tonight?" "I'm scared in this house." "Okay." "I'll sleep on the couch." "No, I'll sleep on the couch." "I slept here last night." "Kiss me." "Jackie." "I love you." "I love you, too." "Why are you doing this?" "What are you doing?" "What are you doing to me?" "I'm not doing anything except trying to be your friend." "You gave me a key to this house." "You talk to me." "Come on, Jackie." "When I used to work in New York..." "I knew a lot of girls, they were in the same place you are." "And I remind you of them." "No." "Haven't you ever had a friend?" "Someone who believed in you?" "Well, I'm your friend." "Trust me." "You don't have to be like them, Jackie." "You got to get some sleep." "We got a lot of work to do." "Okay, nice and easy." "Take a walk." "Okay, man, put your hands on the wall where I can see them." "Attaboy." "Okay, man, where's my girl?" "You are making a big mistake, pal." "No, you are making a big mistake." "If he thinks he can steal my girl away from me... just 'cause he's some slick cophead..." "I got things he ain't never had, man." "Yeah, I saved myself for her." "Now, where is my girl?" "Freeze, police!" "Don't move!" "I'm a cop!" "Stay right there." "Keep them up." "Don't move, now." "I brought you some juice." "You never give up, do you?" "You know I'm going out on a limb for you, don't you?" "Yeah." "You believe me?" "Yeah." "Okay, time to go to bed." "Okay." "All right." "Have sweet dreams." "You, too." "And don't forget to say your prayers." "Good night, Jackie." "Ricardo." "Ricardo?" "The girl is the Ripper." "Get every cop you can to the safe house as soon as possible." "The phone is out of order." "Jackie." "What are you doing?" "Jackie?" "I understand." "I think I've learned." "I don't want to hurt you." "I love you." "Tubbs!" "Crockett, shoot the lock." "Get out of my way, Crockett." "Jackie, no!" "No!"
