Hollywood Homicide Page #5

You offer 5.5.

He counters with 6.5.

You come back at 6.

Give him 48 hours.

He'll take it.

He's desperate.

For sure?

For sure.

Excuse me.

Gavilan.

Joe, yeah.

I got two bodies

down here in the chop shop

that could be the triggermen.

What do you got?

I got the earring and I got the boots,

and I booked them into evidence.

Man, what's up?

Police business.

You seen the library?

I don't need no library.

I need a pool.

Turf warfare.

Guys do their own dirty work.

I think these guys were capped to cover

somebody else's tracks.

You like tennis?

Too much running.

I absolutely agree with you.

No, not... look, good job, kid.

I'll talk to you later.

Yeah.

Okay.

So, Julius... what do you think?

Okay.

I'll go 5.5.

All right.

My man.

Bring the left foot back.

Root it there, and come up into Warrior 1.

Let your arms just raise up.

Spread your arms to the sides.

Exhale.

Come back down into Warrior 2.

Exhale and then bring your right arm down

to your knee and sweep

the left arm across.

Extreme right-angle pose.

Sweep the arms up,

move your feet to parallel.

Pull your arms back around behind you...

then just feel yourself open.

Very good.

And continue that on the other side.

I'll be right back.

What are you doing here?

I got something for you.

How did you find me?

I'm psychic.

Really?

No, not really.

I'm a detective, for chrissake.

I didn't know you taught this stuff.

You make some dough?

Yeah, I make 20 bucks a head.

Donation.

Donation?

Unreportable?

$20 times 40... 800 bucks a whack?

Cash?

Class...

All right, when you're

done with this pose,

we're done for the day.

Namaste.

Get back here.

Namaste?

Some racket you've got here.

Money and sex...

This is not a racket, all right?

These are real people with real feelings.

All right? They need me.

I'm their teacher.

And I need them too.

It's what's called a

symbiotic relationship.

You probably wouldn't know about that.

You have a good day.

Thank you. Nice practice.

Excuse me, K.C.

Do you give private lessons?

I don't, but I could.

If you talk to Kimberly,

then we'll set something up.

Okay, thank you.

K.C., thank you.

I feel really...

open.

That's a good thing.

Okay? See you later.

Great class.

Thanks, Shawna.

Okay.

Maybe I got into it for the sex,

but it's not about that anymore.

I mean, this spiritual sh*t...

there's really something to it.

I mean, I'm out of my body sometimes, man.

Seriously.

I mean, this stuff really works,

and then these girls come in,

and, I mean, they're everywhere.

It's spiritual.

Deep...

And shallow.

Deep and shallow.

This is why I came.

It's the report on your dad's shooting.

Gavilan.

Gower and Franklin.

Thanks for understanding, Joe.

What's up, Cleo?

Have you talked to Vice?

No, I haven't talked to Vice.

Not going to talk to Vice

until I talk to your girl.

You're going to have to give me a name.

My girl is ready to talk.

I've heard that before.

She says she was working

a Sartain Records party,

overheard some guys smoking crack,

started bragging.

About what?

Evidently, the people

behind the Klepto murder

were the same ones behind H2OKlick.

That's hearsay.

Hearsay to you.

Pillow talk to the D.A.

You want to deal'?

I don't know.

Give me a call tomorrow.

I'll run it by the D.A.

This girl better be for real.

Look, I got to make this work.

Things are getting ugly.

I hear you.

What we got on Gavilan so far...

First of all, he's still

seeing Cleo Ricard.

In fact, he saw her earlier today.

God, he does this right in my face.

He's just completely defiant.

Yeah, well, he's clearly

continuing to work her

as an informant.

Yeah, I know.

That's enough to relieve him of duty

right there, but, you know,

I don't want him relieved of duty.

I want him to hang.

Well, his financials don't add up.

He's paying off three ex-wives.

He's got two kids.

He's got two kids in a fancy college.

He's got a great big house.

He's got that big stupid car, you know?

I mean... What about

his real estate thing?

He hasn't made a sale in ages.

Well, my source tells me he's

getting money from somewhere

to keep it aoat, so get

me more surveillance.

Okay.

Alright.

Dominique?

Close enough.

Where did you get the key?

Under the flowerpot.

How did you know it was

under the flowerpot?

I'm psychic.

Good security for a cop.

Bad cop.

No donut.

Everything okay?

Yeah.

Everything's fine.

Just a tough case, that's all.

Used to have a feel for a case early on.

Thank you.

So, you really think you

can predict the future?

How's that work?

Sometimes... I see things.

It just comes to me...

and sometimes I flip a coin.

Other times...

I just make sh*t up.

Happy anniversary.

What anniversary?

You and me.

Three weeks.

That is so sweet.

You remembered.

I didn't.

I mean, dates don't really matter,

except they do.

We think human time, but

rocks think geologic time.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

I don't.

The only date that matters

is the day I found you and left that jerk.

Does he know it's over?

Bennie's in denial.

He's hanging on like a mongoose.

It's sad, really.

Bennie?

Macko.

You don't know him.

He's not in your division.

Bennie Macko?

Bennie "The Executioner" Macko?

That sounds like my Bennie.

He's the guy who's trying to bury me,

for chrissake.

Does he know about us?

Of course not... and who cares?

It's over.

We're finished.

Guys aren't like that, honey.

Guys keep score.

Gavilan.

Yeah, Jerry... Mr. Duran.

Yeah, I can do that.

Okay.

Got the buyer and the seller

inches away from closing,

and this guy wants...

breakfast.

But that could be great, honey.

Mercury's not in retrograde

for another week.

It's good time for deal-making.

It's perfect time.

What did you ever see in Bennie Macko?

I guess I just have a weakness for cops.

Lock up when you leave.

What have we here?

My...

Nice shoes.

Good morning, Mr. Duran.

Julius.

Have a seat.

This is my attorney, Marty Wheeler,

who just happens to be

Julius' attorney as well.

Small world.

Is that a conflict of interest?

Not for me.

Okay, let's talk.

Julius was ready to go to 6.3 or 6.4,

and you drove the price down to six.

Wait a second, you wanted 5.8.

Six is a score.

You never told me 5.8 would do it.

- I was negotiating.

- For whom?

Look, you wanted 5.8.

I was about to get you six.

He was ready to go to 6.4.

Maybe 6.5, but you said the price was 7,

and it never was 7.

Now, look, guys, calm down.

This is a good deal for both of you.

The deal's off.

I want 7 million.

Seven?

Seven?

Yeah.

I won't go a penny over 6.5.

Good day, gents.

A**hole.

I was that close to closing the deal

when Jerry Duran starts dicking around

and blows the whole thing.

Calm down, Joe.

Getting excited never solved any problems.

What do you know about problems?

How many girls are waiting

for you in the hot tub,

that's your idea of a problem.

Joe, you don't respect me

wanting to be an actor,
