You'll lose it.

It'll get pissed on.

It'll find a way to walk out of here.

Your locker is special.

Keep it clean.

Don't let anybody near it.

Kind of like your dick.

You don't have to talk to me

like I'm an idiot.

I'm sorry.

Dunmore.

Unit five to Northridge campus.

Do you need any assistance?

Equipment guy found her about

an hour ago. Student at the college.

We've alerted the parents.

At least he used a clean needle.

I can't imagine how frightened

she must have been.

I can.

I was married to a dentist.

- Watch the flowers!

- Sorry, ma'am.

Yes, ma'am.

- Lester, shoot the crowd.

- Yes, ma'am.

Shooting the crowd.

Is Mike there?

- Who's there?

- Jake Dunmore.

You got company.

Don't think you can come here

anytime you want, buddy boy.

Sh*t like that'll get you killed.

It couldn't be helped.

What do you want?

Change in plans.

I don't want you to kill Peggy Blane.

Sorry, no refunds.

I don't want one.

That's good, because you can't

forget who you're dealing with.

See this f*** here?

This f*** forgot

who he was dealing with.

Didn't you? You f***! F***!

Didn't you forget?

He forgot.

I want you to kill my wife.

All right, f***. Come over here.

Get over here.

Why don't you come

and sit on the couch?

Sit on the couch, all right?

Sit here on the couch.

You' re f***ing her, ain't you?

You shouldn't do that.

Playing the field when

you got a beautiful wife.

That's bad.

That's very bad.

Listen to me, Mike.

You got my money, right?

I want you to kill my wife.

You got any kids?

No.

No kids.

I'm gonna do it.

But it's gonna cost you double.

Double?

She's gonna fight.

I kind of dig her.

You know?

Double's fine.

Just soon, all right?

Gotta think about a couple of

particulars. It shouldn't be too long.

All right.

Did you like my practice run?

Northridge College.

Okay, look for the needle

in the sh*t pile.

These are crowd shots

from all five murders.

We want to separate suspects

from your average scumbag citizen.

Ma'am, you know,

we' re sworn to serve and protect.

If you hate everybody so much,

why are you doing this job?

Once in a while I get

to shoot somebody.

Look for anybody who pops up

in more than one crime scene.

Right.

Raindrops on roses

And whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles

And warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages

Tied up with strings

These are a few of My favorite things

Breakfast is almost ready.

I'm not going to eat.

Where are you going?

I thought I'd go to the office

and say hi to everybody.

But you're on leave.

It'll look better to the cops

if I check in with the company.

And I'm going to an AA meeting tonight.

So I'll be late.

Do you have to? I was hoping

we could go see a movie.

I'm sorry, little one.

Appearances, remember?

Honey?

I love you, honey.

I love you too.

I must have done something good

Oh, my God!

Son of a b*tch!

Hey, hold on.

Give me that.

Do you love me, Jake?

Now what kind of question is that?

Look at all the chances

I'm taking for you.

For us.

Everything I'm doing

is to give you...

the life you deserve.

Kill her, Jake.

Kill her for me.

Trust me.

I love you, Jake.

Howdy, ma'am.

Fill her up?

Please.

I can't take this anymore.

Okay, who snuck the bourbon

in Mr. Rogers' soda pop?

It equalizes the pressure

by constricting blood flow.

Thought you just couldn't

find a lampshade.

I got something!

This shot's from Northridge.

This one's from number two

at the reservoir. Take a look.

This guy and this guy.

- What do you think?

- Focus!

Shut up!

All right, we got him.

- Excellent.

- And we got him.

Bingo!

Yeah, that's Freddy.

No, it's not him!

That guy's got an earring in his nose.

The guy on the bottom doesn't.

Wait, wait, wait.

Maybe he had it put in.

That's a later picture.

This one?

Oh, man.

I guess he's earned

his cookies for today.

Back to the drawing board, gentlemen.

Baby, you keep that up...

you're going to live forever.

Don't make fun of me.

I'm not.

I'm not making fun. I like it.

What's the matter?

Sometimes...

I just...

have all these...

thoughts...

that you're doing this...

all for...

the money.

Peg, baby.

How could you say that?

I don't care about money.

I'm an artist.

You are.

Can I help you?

Do any of these cars run?

All of them.

But I'd go for this Cougar.

She ain't beautiful,

but she still can kick.

Radio works good.

Even got a cassette player.

How much?

- I'm asking 700.

- 700 dollars?

Don't you think that's

a little steep?

I'll let it go for 6.

I have $300 cash.

There's an ATM machine at the store.

- Jesus!

- Who is that?

All right, a**hole!

- Sh*t! Oh, man!

- Go faster!

Hang on! Here goes!

Hang on!

I can't see!

Some crazy motherf***er!

- Jesus!

- Sh*t!

So long, farewell

Who is that?!

It's your f***ing wife!

- Pull over!

- I can outrun her!

- Get away from us, you b*tch!

- So long, farewell

It's not what you think!

I thought you said

we were on the same team!

Baby, it's a business thing!

Well, I'm wearing my team ring!

Please, Sandra! Pull over!

- Go faster!

- Sandra, don't!

Please don't do this!

I have confidence in sunshine

I have confidence in rain

I have confidence

That spring will come again

Besides which, you see

I have confidence in me

Strength doesn't lie in numbers

Strength doesn't lie in wealth

Strength lies in nights

Of peaceful slumbers

When you wake up

Wake up, it's healthy

All I trust I leave my heart to

All I trust becomes my own

I have confidence In confidence alone

Oh, help

I have confidence...

in confidence alone

Besides which, you see

I have confidence...

in me

Hey, Rita.

You got a call on three.

Hello, detective?

This is Sandra Dunmore.

I think something's

happened to my husband.

Easy now.

What makes you say that?

Well, he didn't come

home last night...

and he's been very despondent

since his brother's death.

When was the last time you saw him?

Yesterday.

He was going to the office...

but I called them.

They said he never showed up.

I wouldn't be too worried.

Chances are he'll wake up

in a pile of his own fluids.

I do not appreciate

your attitude, detective.

Nobody does.

I'll put an APB out on your husband's

vehicle. When I know anything...

I'll give you a call.

Thank you.

B*tch.

Two bodies.

One bike, two bodies.

Did you I.D. them?

One's regular, one's extra crispy.

We just know the bike's

registered to Gerald Dunmore.

This one's wearing jewelry.

Probably a woman.

Thank you, Sherlock.

What do you make of this?

They tried to take

that turn too fast.

This is a dangerous road,

especially at night.

And me and old Willie there...

we come down here

2 or 3 times a year...

picking somebody up

out of that burned metal.

Let's get out of here.

The fresh air is making me sick.

Willie, you got my Thermos?

It's a positive I.D.,

based on this dental chart.

Jake Dunmore.

And Peggy Blane.

They were having an affair?

No, they were celebrating
