Nothing.

Hasty, you can't be

put away twice

for money laundering.

I know that.

So?

So I just didn't see anything.

Because?

Because I was hiding

under my desk the whole time.

There were no surveillance

cameras in your bank.

Small town.

Were you laundering money

for Gino Fish back then?

No.

No, on my sacred honor, no.

You know, Hasty, when I

said you saved my life,

I wasn't talking about the night

I arrested you.

I meant you saved my life

because you hired me.

Albeit for the wrong reasons.

I'm very fond of you, Jesse.

See you, Hasty.

Suit.

Jesse!

Where have you

been, Skipper?

Fighting crime.

Rose at the

orthodontist again?

Yes.

How you feeling?

Perfect.

You lost a little weight.

I'm not much good

with the phones.

You supposed to be here?

They let me out of the hospital.

They say it was okay for you

to go back to work?

I didn't ask.

Well, I need you

to answer the phones

for now, Suitcase.

How do you feel about that?

I don't like it.

I feel fine, Lieu.

Okay.

Boy, that thing's a mess.

Tell me about it.

The folder's torn.

The pictures are dirty.

The papers are all wrinkled...

Well, I threw it

across the room.

Why'd you do that?

Because it's a mess.

I think DeAngelo wants your job.

I feel it in my cells.

Well, actually, he thinks

he should have had the job

to begin with.

I'd like to help you

with your drug case.

Suit, do you remember anything

about your stay at the hospital?

No.

Okay...

What did you think

about the bank robbery?

I think you' re on to something.

Rose doesn't think so.

Rose hasn't been in the field.

Well, she threw up.

Was she sick?

It's not important.

You know, I think

we should check for blood

on those clothes

you found.

You know, there might be

an upside to this coma thing.

What are you talking about?

You know what I'm talking about.

You mean...

Yes.

Cop intuition.

Now you' re as crazy as I am.

Watch your step.

Well... Inspector Yokel.

Actually it's Chief Yokel.

Where's your badge?

It's in a drawer.

Ah...

This your boat?

Why, you don't think I could

afford a boat like this?

The Lady Jane's mine.

I'm Chief Stone.

This is Officer Gammon.

I'm Harrison.

Nice to meet you,

Mr. Harrison.

Harrison is my first name.

I'm Harrison Pendleton.

I see.

Nice boat.

Schooner.

Officer Gammon would like

to ask you a few questions.

Do you know a Cathleen Holton?

I do.

Was she a guest

on your schooner?

Yes.

When?

Four days ago.

She joined some friends and me

for an evening cruise.

Do you know how old she is?!

Yes. 18 years and two months.

She showed me her ID.

I was wondering

if you could show me below.

Do you have a warrant?

No.

Well, then, no.

Guy's got two last names.

You might have briefed me

that I was going

to question the suspect.

Well, I'm not sure

he's a suspect.

But I thought

you handled it well...

till you got pissed off.

Jesse, why don't you get

a cell phone?

' Cause I don't like them.

You can always page me.

I have.

Well...

call me

on the car radio.

I have.

You've been spending

a lot of time

away from the office.

I have.

At home?

No.

Good.

So, I assume

you've talked

to the bank guard.

I did.

Have you talked to the mother?

Actually, I didn't.

What are you doing?

Run that plate.

License and

registration, please.

Did I do something

wrong, Officer?

You have no front

license plate,

Mr. Genest.

I knew someone named Genest.

Joe Genest?

He your brother?

He was my brother.

I tell you what.

I'm going to let you off

on the license plate.

Just put one on.

Thank you, Officer.

One more thing.

Don't follow me around, Terry.

wouldn't have

surveillance cameras

in my bank if I were

laundering money.

Well, neither would I,

if I was laundering money.

When did you call Gino Fish?

What?

When did you call Gino Fish?

I didn't...

Right after you left.

You know, Jesse...

I know, you' re very fond of me.

How much money was

really in the bank?

$24,000.

A lot.

$2 million.

You think the robber knew?

Well, not if I was

doing my job right.

How did you know?

Gino had some guy

following me around.

Turned out to be

Joe Genest's brother.

Terence Genest?

But do you think he

knows I killed Joe?

Hasty, everybody knows

you killed Joe.

It's just that

this is a really bad guy.

I would assume so.

Th-This is the kind of guy

that would hold a grudge.

I would assume so,

especially since

you weren't prosecuted for it.

In defense of

a police officer's life.

Well, I'm not sure Mr. Genest

makes those kind

of distinctions.

I'm not sure he makes

distinctions, period.

Now, Jesse, you know,

you might need

to be a little careful.

JESSE:

Excuse me.

Your boss in?

Do you have an appointment?

I'm with the police.

Can I see your badge?

No.

What police department's that?

Paradise.

Paradise?

Is your interest personal

or professional?

I'll talk with the boss.

Mr. Fish never sees anyone

without an appointment.

And your name is?

Alan.

Alan.

Well, we can

do this easy,

or we can do

this hard, Alan.

Easy is

I go in, sit down

and chat with your boss.

Hard is I call Captain Healy,

the state homicide commander,

and bring your boss in

for questioning.

I'll talk to Mr. Fish.

Jesse Stone.

I know who you are.

As I recall,

you thought I should be arrested

during the Hasty Hathaway trial.

That would be me.

Have you spoken

to Hasty lately?

I've never spoken

to Mr. Hathaway.

I have some questions about an

employee of yours, Terry Genest.

I have no such employee.

You employed his

brother, Joe.

That was never proven.

You lost a lot of money

in a bank robbery

in Paradise in 1992.

I've never been

a depositor in Paradise.

This isn't going

very well, is it?

Here's what I think.

Think?

Know but can't prove.

I think Hasty Hathaway

was laundering

a lot of money for you.

I think it was stolen in

the robbery, and you'd like

to get what's left of it back,

so you hired

Joe Genest's brother

because you knew

he had a deep,

personal interest.

That is quite a story.

I think it is.

I think I'll wait

to see the movie.

Nice to meet you, Jesse Stone.

Chief Yokel,

I came to say good-bye.

Was it something I said?

No.

It was something Harrison did.

You mind if I smoke?

No.

Is this legal?

No.

You gonna

search me,

cuff me and then arrest me?

Are you carrying

your gun?

Always armed and ready.

My name's Sybil Martin.

Jesse Stone.

I know.

You married, Jesse?

Sort of.

"Sort of."

Divorced.

Every place but in my mind.

I came to help you.

With my relationship or my case?

Both. Are you wondering

what help I'm going to bring?

Breathlessly.

Listen...

I only met Harrison

a couple days ago.

He tapes himself having sex.

Did he tape you

having sex with him?

Yeah.

Were you aware he was taping you

having sex with him?

Yes.

But when I saw

this tape of a kid...

I thought you

should know.

I'm going back to Boston.

I come to Boston a lot.

Well, let me give you my number.

Robert Brown Parker (September 17, 1932 – January 18, 2010) was an American writer of fiction, primarily of the mystery/detective genre.

Parker also wrote two other series based on an individual character: He wrote nine novels based on the character Jesse Stone and six novels based on the character Sunny Randall.
