Police : Neighbors heard them
screaming at each other
like, for two hours. There
was nothing new. Then they
heard the gun
go off,
both barrels. Crime of
passion.
Somerset : Yeah. Just look at
all the passion on that
wall.
Police : Well, it's a done
deal, all but the paperwork.
Somerset : The kid see it?
Police : What?
Somerset : The kid.
Police : What kind of fucking
question is that? Now we are
all going to be real glad
when we get rid of you,
Somerset. You know that ?
It's always these questions
with you. "Did the kid see
it ?" Who gives a fuck? He's
dead. His wife killed him.
Anything else, it has
nothing to do with us.
Mills : Detective Somerset ?
I'm Detective Mills.
Lieutenant, I apologize for
interrupting like this. I
just get in town 20 minutes
ago, they dump me here.
Somerset : Look, Mills ? I
thought we might find a bar
someplace. You know-
Mills : I'd like to get to
the precinct, if it's all
the same. You know not much
time for this transition
thing.
Somerset : I meant to ask you
something when we spoke on
the phone before.
Mills : Yep.
Somerset : Why here ?
Mills : I don't follow.
Somerset : Well, all this
effort to get transferred.
It's the first question that
popped into
my head.
Mills : I guess the same
reasons as you, the same
reason you had before you
decided to quit, yeah ?
Somerset : You, you just met
me.
Mills : Maybe I'm not
understanding the question.
Somerset : Very simple. You
actually fought to get
reassigned here. I've just
never seen it done that way
before.
Mills : I thought I could do
some good. Look, it would be
great for me if we didn't
start out
kicking
each other in the balls.
But you're
calling
the shots,
Lieutenant.
Somerset : Yes. I want you to
look, and I want you to
listen. OK ?
Mills : Now, I wasn't sent
around
guarding the Taco Bell. I've
worked Homicide five years.
Somerset : Not here.
Mills : I understand that.
Somerset : Over the next
seven days, Detective,
you'll do me the favor of
remembering that. |
