Burnett enters with Julie in tow. He looks defeated,

grass stains on his clothes, mussed hair. And here comes

Chet.

CHET:

'Evening, Mr. Lowrey. May I havea word with you?

(pulls him aside)

I was thinking that... maybe Icould see your gun. See, we

don't allow guns up in the

apartments. Mr. Lowrey usuallychecks his, here, at the desk

with me... You want me to check

yours?

Burnett pulls his gun. But doesn't hand it to Chet. He

sticks it in Chet's face.

We're all being reassigned untiltheir investigation is over. In

here.

Howard pushes them into -

HOWARD'S OFFICE

Where Ruiz and Sanchez wait with one of last night'sHenchmen. His face is horribly bruised.

SANCHEZ:

He says he wants his lawyer.

RUIZ:

Yeah, but we told him we were

desperate men without no f***in'jobs, so...

(prods the guy)

So?

HENCHMAN:

Okay. All I know is his name.

Foo-shay, I think. Got this

heavy French accent. The word

was he offs drug dealers. And

there was quick cash for whoeverhad the balls enough to hook upwith him. I swear, man, watchin'

your house was my first gig forthe guy.

Burnett stands over the Henchman and lifts his defeated

chin to face him. Burnett has it in him to give the guyone more hard whack for good measure, but that bruisedface proves punishment enough.

BURNETT:

Yeah. I guess you're tellin'the truth.

HOWARD:

I also got the lab report fromthe stuff you picked up in Noah'strunk.

He hands it off.

BURNETT:

tell me who can cut a hundred

mil worth a dope in five days?

You'd need whole lotta time cards

to make that kinda date.
