1
00:00:01,736 --> 00:00:06,038
by two separate
yet equally important groups:
2
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:08,257
The police,
who investigate crime
3
00:00:08,258 --> 00:00:10,475
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
4
00:00:10,478 --> 00:00:13,145
These are their stories.
5
00:00:22,523 --> 00:00:24,356
Okay, pal, let's go.
6
00:00:24,358 --> 00:00:25,791
Rise and shine.
7
00:00:25,793 --> 00:00:27,226
Coffee at the mission.
8
00:00:27,228 --> 00:00:29,428
Let's go.
Let's go.
9
00:00:29,430 --> 00:00:31,296
Come on.
Up we go.
10
00:00:31,298 --> 00:00:35,100
( horse neighing )
11
00:00:35,102 --> 00:00:37,069
Look at this.
12
00:00:37,071 --> 00:00:39,071
Oh, geez.
13
00:00:41,475 --> 00:00:43,042
What is this?
14
00:00:43,044 --> 00:00:44,476
Shoe shine out call?
15
00:00:44,478 --> 00:00:46,478
They look like my shoes.
16
00:00:46,480 --> 00:00:48,280
Terrific.
Sure, sure.
17
00:00:48,282 --> 00:00:49,481
Just drop them, drop
them, drop them.
18
00:00:49,483 --> 00:00:50,649
Take off.
19
00:00:50,651 --> 00:00:53,452
( scoffs )
What do we got here?
20
00:00:53,454 --> 00:00:55,320
Oh.
21
00:00:55,322 --> 00:00:57,823
Oh, you okay, buddy? Huh?
22
00:00:57,825 --> 00:01:00,192
( groaning )
I must have got mugged.
23
00:01:01,328 --> 00:01:04,096
Good morning,
New York.
24
00:01:04,098 --> 00:01:05,230
Mounted
Post One.
25
00:01:05,232 --> 00:01:07,299
Request immediate EMS.
26
00:01:07,301 --> 00:01:09,368
On a bench off 86th.
27
00:01:09,370 --> 00:01:11,370
Cut about eight inches,
centimeters--
28
00:01:11,372 --> 00:01:13,605
whichever's smaller--
right about here.
29
00:01:13,607 --> 00:01:16,108
But he's all sewn up
30
00:01:16,110 --> 00:01:18,477
and the doc says
real nice work.
31
00:01:18,479 --> 00:01:20,379
So he had an operation.
So what?
32
00:01:20,381 --> 00:01:21,731
What's the beef?
33
00:01:21,732 --> 00:01:23,082
Well, he says his name
is Drew MacDaniel.
34
00:01:23,084 --> 00:01:25,317
Swears he's never been
under the knife,
35
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:26,652
never even been
in a hospital,
36
00:01:26,654 --> 00:01:27,853
but the doctor says
37
00:01:27,855 --> 00:01:29,288
he has massive
internal bleeding.
38
00:01:29,290 --> 00:01:30,422
They did an ultrasound
or something
39
00:01:30,424 --> 00:01:31,557
before they took
him into surgery.
40
00:01:31,559 --> 00:01:33,225
And?
41
00:01:33,227 --> 00:01:35,461
And somebody cut out his kidney.
42
00:01:37,665 --> 00:01:42,167
Talk about getting
your pocket picked, huh?
43
00:01:43,437 --> 00:01:48,207

¶ ¶
46
00:03:07,388 --> 00:03:10,589
A fresh incision, an I.V. mark,
47
00:03:10,591 --> 00:03:13,392
and blood tests
indicate benzodiazepines--
48
00:03:13,394 --> 00:03:16,828
Hey, I'm no genius, but to me,
that spells operation.
49
00:03:16,830 --> 00:03:18,697
If it weren't for the tie
on the renal vein,
50
00:03:18,699 --> 00:03:20,566
I'd say he did
a pretty good job.
51
00:03:20,568 --> 00:03:22,385
Renal vein?
52
00:03:22,386 --> 00:03:24,203
Yeah, the renal artery
was tied up like a pro,
53
00:03:24,205 --> 00:03:25,671
but the vein must have popped
54
00:03:25,673 --> 00:03:27,272
ten minutes
after they closed him up.
55
00:03:27,274 --> 00:03:28,974
Rookie mistake.
56
00:03:28,975 --> 00:03:30,675
Half hour later, he was
swimming in his own blood.
57
00:03:30,678 --> 00:03:32,344
Listen, a guy just doesn't
forget he had major surgery.
58
00:03:32,346 --> 00:03:34,680
All I'm saying is that
within 24 hours
59
00:03:34,682 --> 00:03:36,949
someone did a chop-chop
and took out a kidney.
60
00:03:36,951 --> 00:03:39,751
Well, he could have
skipped out of post-op
61
00:03:39,753 --> 00:03:40,919
before Accounting
got to him.
62
00:03:40,921 --> 00:03:42,754
Covering up.
63
00:03:42,756 --> 00:03:44,289
You ever been a patient?
64
00:03:44,291 --> 00:03:45,891
It's easier to bust
out of Attica
65
00:03:45,893 --> 00:03:48,894
than to leave a hospital
without paying.
66
00:03:48,896 --> 00:03:50,796
So you're saying
some Dr. Frankenstein
67
00:03:50,798 --> 00:03:52,831
is out there
selling body parts?
68
00:03:52,833 --> 00:03:55,400
Hey, is it possible?
69
00:03:55,402 --> 00:03:58,670
I saw Sweeney Todd three times,
why not?
70
00:03:58,672 --> 00:04:00,806
If you were going
to steal a kidney...
71
00:04:00,808 --> 00:04:03,292
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
72
00:04:03,293 --> 00:04:05,777
I'm a resident looking
at Park Avenue dermatology.
73
00:04:05,779 --> 00:04:07,863
You want to talk kidneys?
74
00:04:07,864 --> 00:04:09,948
Martha Kershan, 14th floor--
resident maven.
75
00:04:09,950 --> 00:04:11,883
Reality? Kidney brokers
are pure fiction.
76
00:04:11,885 --> 00:04:16,021
There is no such animal
as a black market for kidneys.
77
00:04:16,023 --> 00:04:18,790
So even if I wanted to,
I couldn't buy a kidney?
78
00:04:18,792 --> 00:04:19,858
It's against the law.
79
00:04:19,860 --> 00:04:21,376
So is jaywalking.
80
00:04:21,377 --> 00:04:22,893
More to the point,
it's not necessary.
81
00:04:22,896 --> 00:04:25,364
We can keep kidney patients
alive on dialysis
82
00:04:25,366 --> 00:04:27,399
until a kidney
becomes available.
83
00:04:27,401 --> 00:04:28,834
Available, how?
84
00:04:28,836 --> 00:04:30,669
Through O.T.N.--
85
00:04:30,671 --> 00:04:31,903
The Organ Transplant Network.
86
00:04:31,905 --> 00:04:34,473
They monitor
all available organs nationwide.
87
00:04:34,475 --> 00:04:37,743
So I want to give up my kidney--
88
00:04:37,745 --> 00:04:38,744
I go to O.T.N...
89
00:04:38,746 --> 00:04:39,945
Not exactly.
90
00:04:39,947 --> 00:04:42,681
Hopefully, you'd
be recently deceased,
91
00:04:42,683 --> 00:04:44,783
since it's also
illegal to sell a kidney.
92
00:04:44,785 --> 00:04:46,785
Hospital notifies O.T.N.
they've got a donor.
93
00:04:46,787 --> 00:04:48,720
How long
does it take
94
00:04:48,722 --> 00:04:49,855
to get one?
95
00:04:49,857 --> 00:04:51,290
Long, sometimes never.
96
00:04:51,292 --> 00:04:53,692
What's the problem--
getting them to match?
97
00:04:53,694 --> 00:04:55,761
No,
rejection hasn't been
98
00:04:55,762 --> 00:04:57,829
a major concern for ten years;
drugs combat it.
99
00:04:57,831 --> 00:05:00,299
For the most part
everything is interchangeable.
100
00:05:00,301 --> 00:05:03,835
So there's no reason
for this to have happened.
101
00:05:03,837 --> 00:05:05,771
Unless the recipient
102
00:05:05,773 --> 00:05:07,839
was highly cytotoxic.
103
00:05:07,841 --> 00:05:10,776
( chuckles )
English please, Doc.
104
00:05:10,778 --> 00:05:12,044
If you're cytotoxic,
105
00:05:12,046 --> 00:05:14,379
you reject tissue
unlike your own.
106
00:05:14,381 --> 00:05:16,048
The drugs don't work.
107
00:05:16,050 --> 00:05:18,884
You'd need a virtually
perfect match.
108
00:05:20,988 --> 00:05:22,387
Drew MacDaniel.
109
00:05:22,389 --> 00:05:24,389
You don't look
like family.
110
00:05:24,391 --> 00:05:26,792
Under the skin, we're all
brothers, Miss Johnson.
111
00:05:26,794 --> 00:05:27,926
212. Good luck.
112
00:05:27,928 --> 00:05:29,928
He's just up from recovery.
113
00:05:29,930 --> 00:05:33,532
Double dose
of every painkiller we got.
114
00:05:33,534 --> 00:05:35,000
High as a kite.
115
00:05:35,002 --> 00:05:40,005
No, Detective,
I never had an operation.
116
00:05:40,007 --> 00:05:43,809
And you were born
with two kidneys, right?
117
00:05:43,811 --> 00:05:45,811
Drafted in '68.
118
00:05:45,813 --> 00:05:48,847
Healthy enough
for a tour in 'Nam.
119
00:05:48,849 --> 00:05:52,017
You always walk through the park
at night, Mr. MacDaniel?
120
00:05:52,019 --> 00:05:53,785
Tuesdays.
121
00:05:53,787 --> 00:05:56,888
I take my six-year-old
to the playground
122
00:05:56,890 --> 00:05:59,424
off 76th and Fifth.
123
00:05:59,426 --> 00:06:01,827
Lives with her mother.
124
00:06:01,829 --> 00:06:03,095
Divorced?
125
00:06:03,097 --> 00:06:04,496
Separated.
126
00:06:04,498 --> 00:06:05,864
I live on Columbus.
127
00:06:05,866 --> 00:06:08,533
I walk home through the park.
128
00:06:08,535 --> 00:06:14,072
Did you get a look
at these... muggers?
129
00:06:15,476 --> 00:06:17,042
Muggers?
130
00:06:24,118 --> 00:06:26,785
I don't remember anything.
131
00:06:26,787 --> 00:06:28,453
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
wait a minute.
132
00:06:28,455 --> 00:06:32,424
Are you telling me MacDaniel
was not a random victim?
133
00:06:32,426 --> 00:06:33,925
All right, we've got a
specialist who says,
134
00:06:33,927 --> 00:06:35,594
the only way this
thing makes sense,
135
00:06:35,596 --> 00:06:37,062
is if the recipient
had a condition
136
00:06:37,064 --> 00:06:38,163
that required a match.
137
00:06:38,165 --> 00:06:39,865
And MacDaniel's kidney
fits the bill?
138
00:06:39,867 --> 00:06:41,867
Well, he'd have to be
tested to make sure,
139
00:06:41,869 --> 00:06:44,035
but the problem is,
MacDaniel swears
140
00:06:44,037 --> 00:06:46,004
from now till Sunday,
that he's never been tested.
141
00:06:46,006 --> 00:06:49,608
Grand theft kidney. Terrific.
142
00:06:49,610 --> 00:06:50,809
What about you?
You got any theories?
143
00:06:50,811 --> 00:06:52,511
Devil worship? Alien beings?
144
00:06:52,513 --> 00:06:55,914
( sighs )
A cult wouldn't stitch
the guy back up.
145
00:06:55,916 --> 00:06:57,916
And I imagine there
would be other organs
146
00:06:57,918 --> 00:06:59,484
of more interest
than a kidney.
147
00:06:59,486 --> 00:07:01,853
Had to be for
a transplant.
148
00:07:01,855 --> 00:07:03,955
Had to happen
sooner or later.
149
00:07:03,957 --> 00:07:05,891
What did?
150
00:07:05,892 --> 00:07:07,826
Well, you don't think with
these medical miracles,
151
00:07:07,828 --> 00:07:10,061
they don't set up a whole
new set of problems?
152
00:07:10,063 --> 00:07:12,464
Oh, what are we going to do?
Bury our heads in the sand?
153
00:07:12,466 --> 00:07:15,000
I'm just saying we come
in with all our own parts,
154
00:07:15,002 --> 00:07:16,501
maybe we should
go out the same way.
155
00:07:16,503 --> 00:07:18,036
( scoffs )
Come on, give me a break, Max.
156
00:07:18,038 --> 00:07:19,971
You know how many lives
have been saved
157
00:07:19,973 --> 00:07:21,907
because of organ donations?
158
00:07:21,909 --> 00:07:24,876
I don't see you
standing in line
giving anything away.
159
00:07:24,878 --> 00:07:26,978
I got the sticker
on my license.
160
00:07:26,980 --> 00:07:28,947
Personally, I think
it should be automatic.
161
00:07:28,949 --> 00:07:30,816
Otherwise, they'd just
give you a sticker
162
00:07:30,818 --> 00:07:32,184
that says you
can't use your organs.
163
00:07:32,186 --> 00:07:33,919
My old man
wouldn't be alive today
164
00:07:33,921 --> 00:07:35,153
if he didn't have
a new ticker.
165
00:07:35,155 --> 00:07:36,888
Okay, enough with
the Philosophy 101.
166
00:07:36,890 --> 00:07:38,857
Now, let's say the motive
is transplant.
167
00:07:38,859 --> 00:07:41,026
I got a $64 question.
168
00:07:41,028 --> 00:07:45,197
Who did it
get transplanted into?
169
00:07:45,199 --> 00:07:47,232
Bull's-eye.
170
00:07:47,234 --> 00:07:50,135
I just need to know
if any kidney transplants
171
00:07:50,137 --> 00:07:52,671
took place at your hospital
in the last 72 hours.
172
00:07:52,673 --> 00:07:54,673
Whoa, whoa, I have
been waiting, all right?
173
00:07:54,675 --> 00:07:57,175
No, no, hold on,
don't go, don't go.
174
00:07:57,177 --> 00:07:59,945
Well, okay.
Yeah. Who does
your scheduling?
175
00:07:59,947 --> 00:08:01,880
No!
O.R. scheduling, okay?
176
00:08:01,882 --> 00:08:03,482
No.
Yes, ma'am.
177
00:08:03,484 --> 00:08:06,085
That's right, that's
right, I'm a detective.
178
00:08:06,086 --> 00:08:08,687
That's quite all right.
No, this is not
a crank call, okay?
179
00:08:08,689 --> 00:08:11,490
Well, could you just maybe
find it for me, huh?
180
00:08:11,492 --> 00:08:12,924
Could ya?
181
00:08:12,926 --> 00:08:14,659
Okay, fine. Thank you.
182
00:08:14,661 --> 00:08:17,596
You know, what is
with people these days?
183
00:08:17,598 --> 00:08:19,231
We got five, at least.
We got four.
184
00:08:19,233 --> 00:08:21,633
The one at Saint John's
took place at 3:30.
185
00:08:21,635 --> 00:08:24,870
MacDaniel wasn't even
in the park at that time.
186
00:08:24,872 --> 00:08:26,505
He hadn't been to see
his daughter, either.
187
00:08:26,507 --> 00:08:28,273
Four.
188
00:08:32,946 --> 00:08:34,713
And you can track where
every kidney came from?
189
00:08:34,715 --> 00:08:35,981
Sure, and where it goes.
190
00:08:35,983 --> 00:08:37,983
For example,
this morning in Miami,
191
00:08:37,985 --> 00:08:41,253
a 14-year-old boy died
in a diving accident,
192
00:08:41,255 --> 00:08:42,954
and tomorrow,
193
00:08:42,956 --> 00:08:45,690
a 63-year-old potato
farmer in Boise
194
00:08:45,692 --> 00:08:46,892
will get his kidney.
195
00:08:46,894 --> 00:08:48,293
( chuckles )
Unbelievable.
196
00:08:48,294 --> 00:08:49,693
Not really, it
gets packed in ice.
197
00:08:49,696 --> 00:08:51,229
Federal Express
does the rest.
198
00:08:51,231 --> 00:08:52,931
So, our four...
199
00:08:52,933 --> 00:08:53,965
Let's see.
200
00:08:53,967 --> 00:08:56,234
The transplant
at Manhattan Memorial
201
00:08:56,236 --> 00:08:58,670
came from Saint Jude's
in Boston.
202
00:08:58,672 --> 00:09:02,741
The one in Newark came
from Concord, New Hampshire.
203
00:09:02,743 --> 00:09:08,947
And the one at Gramercy
came from...
204
00:09:08,949 --> 00:09:10,549
Are you sure
you got this right?
205
00:09:11,285 --> 00:09:12,918
Why?
206
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,471
There's no record
207
00:09:15,472 --> 00:09:18,023
of a kidney to Gramercy
in the last three days.
208
00:09:19,626 --> 00:09:21,259
Thank you very much.
209
00:09:21,261 --> 00:09:23,762
Yeah, blood, kidneys, corneas,
it all comes through here.
210
00:09:23,764 --> 00:09:25,764
You were on Tuesday night?
211
00:09:25,766 --> 00:09:27,015
Till 10:00.
212
00:09:27,016 --> 00:09:28,265
You got a record of
a kidney coming in?
213
00:09:28,268 --> 00:09:31,169
Kidney, kidney,
don't leave home without it.
214
00:09:31,171 --> 00:09:34,272
Tuesday...
215
00:09:34,274 --> 00:09:35,740
Yep, there it is.
216
00:09:35,742 --> 00:09:38,276
Kidney came in at 9:32 p.m.
217
00:09:38,278 --> 00:09:40,679
From where?
218
00:09:40,681 --> 00:09:42,747
What, am I supposed
to ask it where it's from?
219
00:09:42,749 --> 00:09:44,749
Delivery guy
drops off a cooler.
220
00:09:44,751 --> 00:09:46,318
Document says it's a kidney.
221
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,220
I mark down the time,
and I send it upstairs.
222
00:09:49,222 --> 00:09:50,355
To whom?
223
00:09:50,357 --> 00:09:53,291
Patient: Merritt, Mary.
224
00:09:53,293 --> 00:09:56,094
Doctor: Reberty, James.
225
00:10:00,634 --> 00:10:03,635
You don't mind if I tape this?
226
00:10:03,637 --> 00:10:06,037
I find it avoids
misunderstandings.
227
00:10:06,039 --> 00:10:10,175
Well, we certainly
wouldn't want any of those.
228
00:10:10,177 --> 00:10:11,810
To get back to your question.
229
00:10:11,812 --> 00:10:14,779
As long as the blood
and tissue samples
230
00:10:14,781 --> 00:10:16,781
are compatible with my patient,
231
00:10:16,783 --> 00:10:20,085
it doesn't much concern me
where the kidney comes from.
232
00:10:20,087 --> 00:10:22,087
So you have no idea
who the donor was?
233
00:10:22,089 --> 00:10:23,755
The paperwork
234
00:10:23,757 --> 00:10:27,692
that accompanies the organ, uh,
only has the donor's vitals.
235
00:10:27,694 --> 00:10:31,029
If you need more, I guess you
got to talk to O.T.N.
236
00:10:31,031 --> 00:10:34,132
Yeah, well, O.T.N. has no record
of ever delivering a kidney
237
00:10:34,134 --> 00:10:36,167
to Gramercy Hospital, so...
238
00:10:36,169 --> 00:10:38,770
When were you
alerted
239
00:10:38,772 --> 00:10:40,705
that a kidney
had become available?
240
00:10:40,707 --> 00:10:43,241
I was dining at Windows.
241
00:10:43,243 --> 00:10:45,076
That was 9:30.
242
00:10:45,078 --> 00:10:47,345
My beeper went off.
243
00:10:47,347 --> 00:10:51,282
I notified my team,
and I notified the patient.
244
00:10:51,284 --> 00:10:53,184
Nothing unusual?
245
00:10:53,186 --> 00:10:55,220
Like a thousand times before.
246
00:10:55,222 --> 00:10:57,255
The operation was a success.
247
00:10:57,257 --> 00:10:59,357
We're monitoring her responses.
248
00:10:59,359 --> 00:11:01,059
You know, my
guess is that
249
00:11:01,061 --> 00:11:03,261
some clerk got caught napping
down at O.T.N.
250
00:11:03,263 --> 00:11:06,031
To err is human.
251
00:11:06,033 --> 00:11:07,799
WOMAN:
Mary Merritt.
252
00:11:07,801 --> 00:11:09,367
LOGAN:
She looks awful.
253
00:11:09,369 --> 00:11:10,702
Is she going to make it?
254
00:11:10,704 --> 00:11:12,237
She was lucky.
255
00:11:12,239 --> 00:11:16,241
I'd say she got that kidney
in just about the nick of time.
256
00:11:16,243 --> 00:11:18,710
Do you think you
can get us an address,
257
00:11:18,712 --> 00:11:20,779
names of relatives,
friends?
258
00:11:20,781 --> 00:11:23,281
Nope.
259
00:11:23,283 --> 00:11:25,817
Actually, Mary Merritt's
not her real name.
260
00:11:25,819 --> 00:11:29,220
It's a code we give
to the big shots
261
00:11:29,222 --> 00:11:32,123
when they come in
for a detox or a tuck.
262
00:11:32,125 --> 00:11:33,291
Or a transplant?
263
00:11:33,293 --> 00:11:34,826
What are you going to do?
264
00:11:34,828 --> 00:11:36,428
Celebs like their privacy.
265
00:11:36,430 --> 00:11:39,464
Once one of the New Kids
came in, tonsils or something
266
00:11:39,466 --> 00:11:42,267
This whole place
turned into a zoo.
267
00:11:42,269 --> 00:11:44,369
So who do we have here?
268
00:11:44,371 --> 00:11:46,204
NURSE:
You got me.
269
00:11:46,206 --> 00:11:48,239
I've never
seen her before.
270
00:11:48,241 --> 00:11:50,241
But she must be big.
271
00:11:50,243 --> 00:11:52,277
Usually, the charts
have their real I.D.s.
272
00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:54,779
This time,nada.
273
00:11:54,781 --> 00:11:56,181
How about insurance?
274
00:11:56,183 --> 00:11:58,783
The whole thing
was paid up front.
275
00:11:58,785 --> 00:12:00,752
A private suite.
276
00:12:00,754 --> 00:12:01,820
Hmm.
277
00:12:01,822 --> 00:12:03,822
Mind if we take a look?
278
00:12:03,824 --> 00:12:04,823
I shouldn't.
279
00:12:04,825 --> 00:12:05,757
Aw, come on.
280
00:12:05,759 --> 00:12:06,891
Just want to see
281
00:12:06,893 --> 00:12:08,760
how the idle rich
recuperate.
282
00:12:10,330 --> 00:12:12,297
( chuckles )
283
00:12:12,299 --> 00:12:14,799
What did you get?
284
00:12:17,471 --> 00:12:19,738
Her lipstick.
285
00:12:19,740 --> 00:12:21,272
( laughing )
286
00:12:21,274 --> 00:12:22,807
CRAGEN:
It's robbery, Mike.
287
00:12:22,809 --> 00:12:24,743
You don't take
other people's property,
288
00:12:24,745 --> 00:12:26,177
even if you do
have a badge.
289
00:12:26,179 --> 00:12:27,846
Hey, she's in I.C.U.--
I don't think
290
00:12:27,848 --> 00:12:29,414
she's going to need her
lipstick for a while.
291
00:12:29,416 --> 00:12:31,783
Look, you got the prints,
just put it back, okay?
292
00:12:31,785 --> 00:12:32,817
Yeah.
293
00:12:32,819 --> 00:12:34,152
You're not going
to believe this.
294
00:12:34,154 --> 00:12:35,787
Our Ms. Merritt had
a drug possession charge
295
00:12:35,789 --> 00:12:36,821
three years ago.
296
00:12:36,823 --> 00:12:37,856
You get a name?
297
00:12:37,858 --> 00:12:39,408
Joanna Woodleigh,
298
00:12:39,409 --> 00:12:40,959
only daughter
of Phillip Woodleigh.
299
00:12:40,961 --> 00:12:42,360
The Woodleigh Building?
300
00:12:42,362 --> 00:12:43,828
The Woodleigh Library,
301
00:12:43,830 --> 00:12:45,530
the Woodleigh Foundation,
the Woodleigh Trust.
302
00:12:45,532 --> 00:12:48,366
Phillip Woodleigh gives away
more money in one year,
303
00:12:48,368 --> 00:12:50,368
than the three of us
will earn in a lifetime.
304
00:12:50,370 --> 00:12:52,971
Which means his daughter
can afford some new lipstick.
305
00:12:52,973 --> 00:12:55,907
Which means she can afford
a new kidney.
306
00:13:00,947 --> 00:13:02,947
( chuckling ):
Mary Merritt.
307
00:13:02,949 --> 00:13:05,984
She said she didn't need
that kind of privacy.
308
00:13:05,986 --> 00:13:09,220
She also hated having
her picture in the Post
309
00:13:09,222 --> 00:13:10,555
after her
last operation.
310
00:13:10,557 --> 00:13:12,924
You mean she's had other
transplant attempts?
311
00:13:12,926 --> 00:13:15,527
Two failed,
last time she almost died
312
00:13:15,529 --> 00:13:17,362
during treatment
for the rejection.
313
00:13:17,364 --> 00:13:19,831
That must be difficult.
314
00:13:19,833 --> 00:13:21,199
I'm sorry.
315
00:13:21,201 --> 00:13:24,169
You know, unfortunately,
your daughter's kidney
316
00:13:24,171 --> 00:13:25,570
can't be accounted for.
317
00:13:25,572 --> 00:13:27,205
And this incident in the park
seems to...
318
00:13:27,207 --> 00:13:30,175
Gentlemen, gentlemen,
believe me, I feel for the man,
319
00:13:30,177 --> 00:13:32,210
but what do you want me to do?
320
00:13:32,212 --> 00:13:33,878
I don't know who he is
321
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,980
or what bearing
this has on my daughter.
322
00:13:35,982 --> 00:13:38,349
The kidney
came through the system,
323
00:13:38,351 --> 00:13:41,219
which I thank God for.
324
00:13:43,123 --> 00:13:44,255
A mugging for a human organ?
325
00:13:44,257 --> 00:13:45,924
GREEVEY:
When was the last time
326
00:13:45,926 --> 00:13:49,093
Drew MacDaniel had
a blood test, Doctor?
327
00:13:49,095 --> 00:13:51,896
I did one about four months ago.
328
00:13:51,898 --> 00:13:54,165
What for?
329
00:13:54,167 --> 00:13:58,369
Mr. MacDaniel was the object
of a paternity suit.
330
00:13:58,371 --> 00:14:02,140
I drew blood
for the court-ordered test.
331
00:14:02,142 --> 00:14:04,175
Fatherhood.
That's a big help.
332
00:14:04,177 --> 00:14:05,877
No, no.
333
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:07,345
It's the same test: H.L.A.
334
00:14:08,148 --> 00:14:11,082
Same as the one
to test kidney tissue?
335
00:14:11,084 --> 00:14:13,151
Yes.
336
00:14:13,153 --> 00:14:16,020
This is from the
kidney that showed up
at Gramercy Hospital.
337
00:14:16,022 --> 00:14:17,889
It's the same blood type
as MacDaniel.
338
00:14:17,891 --> 00:14:20,158
Same as millions of others, too.
339
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:21,960
Whether the tissue matches,
I couldn't tell you
340
00:14:21,962 --> 00:14:24,195
without comparing
the H.L.A. results.
341
00:14:24,197 --> 00:14:26,631
Who did the lab work?
342
00:14:26,633 --> 00:14:28,166
Lindquist Labs,
343
00:14:28,168 --> 00:14:30,401
2nd Avenue,
across from University Hospital.
344
00:14:30,403 --> 00:14:32,904
They have
an excellent reputation.
345
00:14:32,906 --> 00:14:35,073
We're impressed in advance.
346
00:14:35,075 --> 00:14:37,075
No one knows client results.
347
00:14:37,077 --> 00:14:39,344
The data's identified
by order number only.
348
00:14:39,346 --> 00:14:41,045
You've got to match patient
349
00:14:41,047 --> 00:14:42,380
with test result
at some point!
350
00:14:42,382 --> 00:14:44,415
Only in Billing.
( chuckles )
351
00:14:44,417 --> 00:14:48,052
The account's accessed
once when the order comes in,
352
00:14:48,054 --> 00:14:51,155
once when the result
goes out-- twice.
353
00:14:51,157 --> 00:14:53,958
And how many times was the
MacDaniel's file accessed?
354
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,327
Not more than twice,
I'm sure.
355
00:14:56,329 --> 00:14:59,063
( typing )
356
00:14:59,065 --> 00:15:00,632
( computer beeps )
357
00:15:00,634 --> 00:15:03,101
What's that?
358
00:15:03,103 --> 00:15:05,637
That's a third time.
359
00:15:05,639 --> 00:15:08,339
And the other accounts?
360
00:15:08,341 --> 00:15:11,342
( computer beeping )
361
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,382
They've all been accessed
three times.
362
00:15:17,384 --> 00:15:19,017
By who?
363
00:15:19,019 --> 00:15:20,685
One of my clerks.
364
00:15:20,687 --> 00:15:23,388
A woman named Rosaria Mendez.
365
00:15:23,390 --> 00:15:25,256
But she's gone home.
366
00:15:25,258 --> 00:15:29,460
To an address
you'll be happy to access.
367
00:15:29,462 --> 00:15:31,496
I even go back to it four times
368
00:15:31,498 --> 00:15:33,364
to make sure
everything is right.
369
00:15:33,366 --> 00:15:35,934
Why, because you make
so many mistakes?
370
00:15:35,936 --> 00:15:37,268
I'm a good worker.
371
00:15:37,270 --> 00:15:40,939
I don't know nothing
about people getting hurt.
372
00:15:40,941 --> 00:15:43,041
I'm sure you're a
worker, Rosaria,
373
00:15:43,043 --> 00:15:44,375
but you might have
helped some people
374
00:15:44,377 --> 00:15:47,011
to hurt an
innocent man.
375
00:15:49,482 --> 00:15:53,718
Entra para dentro.
Entra para dentro.
376
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,453
This nurse came
from the hospital.
377
00:15:55,455 --> 00:15:58,256
She asked for printouts
of test data.
378
00:15:58,258 --> 00:15:59,457
What hospital?
379
00:15:59,459 --> 00:16:01,092
Who's the nurse?
380
00:16:01,094 --> 00:16:02,293
Gramercy Hospital.
381
00:16:02,295 --> 00:16:04,395
Her name is Elaine Hale.
382
00:16:04,397 --> 00:16:06,965
They're doing
this big research project
383
00:16:06,967 --> 00:16:08,199
on kidney transplants.
384
00:16:08,201 --> 00:16:11,269
I thought I was doing good.
385
00:16:11,271 --> 00:16:13,171
You never wondered
why she came to you
386
00:16:13,173 --> 00:16:15,006
instead of the head of the lab?
387
00:16:15,008 --> 00:16:17,275
They were in a hurry.
388
00:16:17,277 --> 00:16:21,212
And your heart was so pure,
you never took money.
389
00:16:24,217 --> 00:16:26,217
GREEVEY:
You work for Dr. Reberty,
don't you?
390
00:16:26,219 --> 00:16:27,752
Everybody here works for him.
391
00:16:27,754 --> 00:16:30,154
He's chief
of transplant surgery.
392
00:16:30,156 --> 00:16:31,389
Does everyone go around town
393
00:16:31,391 --> 00:16:34,125
bribing clerks for
confidential medical data?
394
00:16:34,127 --> 00:16:36,127
That sounds
like an accusation.
395
00:16:36,129 --> 00:16:38,096
It is.
It's a crock.
396
00:16:38,098 --> 00:16:40,298
LOGAN:
Not according
to Rosaria Mendez.
397
00:16:40,300 --> 00:16:44,202
That's just circumventing
the bureaucracy.
398
00:16:44,204 --> 00:16:45,536
Oh, really?
And why would you do that?
399
00:16:45,538 --> 00:16:47,005
To save time.
400
00:16:47,007 --> 00:16:48,740
Everybody does it.
401
00:16:48,742 --> 00:16:50,141
They do?
402
00:16:50,143 --> 00:16:52,543
Why all the interest
in Drew MacDaniel?
403
00:16:52,545 --> 00:16:54,212
Who?
404
00:16:54,214 --> 00:16:57,148
He's a guy...
with a missing kidney.
405
00:16:57,150 --> 00:17:01,052
A guy whose blood-test
results you had.
406
00:17:01,054 --> 00:17:04,188
I got 4,000 sets of results.
407
00:17:04,190 --> 00:17:08,292
If his name is on it,
it sounds like coincidence.
408
00:17:08,294 --> 00:17:10,294
Sorry, guys.
409
00:17:13,299 --> 00:17:14,799
( chuckles )
410
00:17:18,438 --> 00:17:23,207
Look, in ten years,
we havenevermade a mistake.
411
00:17:23,209 --> 00:17:25,343
I assure you,
no legitimate kidney
412
00:17:25,345 --> 00:17:27,311
was delivered to Gramercy
in the last week.
413
00:17:27,313 --> 00:17:29,347
Legitimate?
414
00:17:29,349 --> 00:17:31,416
I'm not going to lie to you.
415
00:17:31,418 --> 00:17:34,419
In India, you can get
a kidney for $20,000.
416
00:17:34,421 --> 00:17:36,788
I mean,
if one were desperate enough,
417
00:17:36,790 --> 00:17:38,389
I suppose
one could go overseas.
418
00:17:38,391 --> 00:17:40,525
Or cross town.
419
00:17:40,527 --> 00:17:43,261
How desperate
was Joanna Woodleigh?
420
00:17:43,263 --> 00:17:45,329
Oh, let's see.
421
00:17:48,535 --> 00:17:53,237
Hmm. On a scale of one to ten,
I'd give her an 11.
422
00:17:53,239 --> 00:17:55,807
Because of the two
failed transplants?
423
00:17:55,809 --> 00:17:58,460
Very good, Detective.
424
00:17:58,461 --> 00:18:01,112
You see, with each rejection,
the body becomes more cytotoxic.
425
00:18:01,114 --> 00:18:04,282
I mean, this girl would need
almost need a perfect match.
426
00:18:10,356 --> 00:18:13,124
Would Mr. MacDaniel's kidney
do the trick?
427
00:18:15,628 --> 00:18:17,195
Four-point match.
428
00:18:17,197 --> 00:18:19,297
That's as good as it gets.
429
00:18:19,299 --> 00:18:22,233
Well, do you have any evidence
tying this doctor
430
00:18:22,235 --> 00:18:24,335
to the attack on the man
in the park?
431
00:18:24,337 --> 00:18:26,504
Not directly.
432
00:18:26,506 --> 00:18:29,173
Joanna Woodleigh
is so hard to match
433
00:18:29,175 --> 00:18:32,210
she's been on a waiting list
for three years.
434
00:18:32,212 --> 00:18:34,445
You believe there were
two compatible kidneys
435
00:18:34,447 --> 00:18:37,281
floating around Manhattan
on the same night?
436
00:18:37,283 --> 00:18:39,150
Now, we know this kidney
437
00:18:39,152 --> 00:18:40,418
didn't come from
the Organ Network,
438
00:18:40,420 --> 00:18:42,353
and I doubt he's going to get it
439
00:18:42,355 --> 00:18:45,490
from the meat section
at Dagastinos.
440
00:18:45,492 --> 00:18:47,425
So, we're assuming
that the transplant surgeon
441
00:18:47,427 --> 00:18:48,559
at a major hospital,
442
00:18:48,561 --> 00:18:52,163
went out and bushwhacked
this guy himself?
443
00:18:52,165 --> 00:18:54,232
Couldn't have been an amateur--
there's too much to cut.
444
00:18:54,234 --> 00:18:56,467
Well, where the hell did he do
this, right there in the bushes?
445
00:18:56,469 --> 00:18:58,669
All we know
is that he did it.
446
00:18:58,671 --> 00:19:02,507
Proving he did it--
that's a long shot.
447
00:19:06,546 --> 00:19:10,248
Two competent people
could remove a kidney.
448
00:19:10,250 --> 00:19:12,300
What about equipment?
449
00:19:12,301 --> 00:19:14,351
To do it right, a
complete operating theater.
450
00:19:14,354 --> 00:19:16,254
How about just to get it done?
451
00:19:16,256 --> 00:19:18,689
It's the carpenter,
not his tools.
452
00:19:18,691 --> 00:19:21,659
Minimum: scalpel, sutures,
anesthesia machine.
453
00:19:22,929 --> 00:19:25,396
Are anesthesia machines
portable?
454
00:19:25,398 --> 00:19:26,597
For Schwartzenegger.
455
00:19:26,599 --> 00:19:28,399
It's about 500 pounds.
456
00:19:28,401 --> 00:19:30,368
You don't just tiptoe
out of a hospital
457
00:19:30,370 --> 00:19:31,369
with one late at night.
458
00:19:31,371 --> 00:19:33,171
Are they expensive?
459
00:19:33,173 --> 00:19:34,372
Expensive enough.
460
00:19:34,374 --> 00:19:35,439
We lease ours.
461
00:19:35,441 --> 00:19:37,942
Suppose I wanted to lease one?
462
00:19:37,944 --> 00:19:39,277
Talk to my secretary,
463
00:19:39,279 --> 00:19:42,330
she'll give you our supplier.
464
00:19:42,331 --> 00:19:45,382
Two months ago, a guy comes in--
ratty hair, beard, the works.
465
00:19:45,385 --> 00:19:47,485
Says he wants
a defibrillator.
466
00:19:47,487 --> 00:19:49,687
I figure, this guy's no M.D.
467
00:19:49,689 --> 00:19:53,224
Turns out, he's some hotshot
lecturer over at downstate.
468
00:19:53,226 --> 00:19:56,594
To think my nephew Petey
ended up in Guadalajara.
469
00:19:57,630 --> 00:20:00,631
Here you go--
one anesthesia machine.
470
00:20:00,633 --> 00:20:02,967
Rented to who?
Reberty, James.
471
00:20:02,969 --> 00:20:04,652
Yeah, I remember.
472
00:20:04,653 --> 00:20:06,336
Some woman called
and charged it to his Am-Ex.
473
00:20:06,339 --> 00:20:08,272
Was her name
Elaine Hale?
474
00:20:08,274 --> 00:20:11,242
488 West 94, Apartment One.
475
00:20:11,244 --> 00:20:13,244
We deliver it, 50 bucks extra,
pickup another 50.
476
00:20:13,246 --> 00:20:15,346
Did she return it?
477
00:20:15,348 --> 00:20:17,515
Picked it up the next day,
hardly used.
478
00:20:17,517 --> 00:20:19,383
You didn't think
it was strange
479
00:20:19,385 --> 00:20:21,485
that Miss Hale had
an anesthesia machine
480
00:20:21,487 --> 00:20:23,387
delivered to
her apartment?
481
00:20:23,389 --> 00:20:27,258
Guy comes in last week,
wants 100 bedpans.
482
00:20:27,260 --> 00:20:29,393
Jell-O molds.
483
00:20:29,395 --> 00:20:31,996
( chuckles )
What do I know?
484
00:20:36,402 --> 00:20:37,668
GREEVEY:
Tell me about Elaine Hale.
485
00:20:37,670 --> 00:20:39,704
WOMAN:
Oh. She's the good one.
486
00:20:39,706 --> 00:20:42,607
Never a sound,
rent on time.
487
00:20:42,609 --> 00:20:44,408
Invites me
to holiday dinner.
488
00:20:44,410 --> 00:20:47,578
( laughs )
They should all be so sweet.
489
00:20:47,580 --> 00:20:49,580
What did she do anyway?
490
00:20:49,582 --> 00:20:52,283
Well, what makes you think
she did anything?
491
00:20:52,285 --> 00:20:54,018
Oh, cops, warrant--
492
00:20:54,020 --> 00:20:57,021
you don't need
to be a Kreskin.
493
00:20:57,023 --> 00:21:00,291
Anything strange
about the last couple of days?
494
00:21:00,293 --> 00:21:01,659
Oh, you want strange?
495
00:21:01,661 --> 00:21:04,395
Those bums in 2E.
496
00:21:04,397 --> 00:21:06,530
Purple hair, gold earring.
497
00:21:06,532 --> 00:21:07,665
Nothing.
498
00:21:07,667 --> 00:21:09,667
What did you expect?
499
00:21:09,669 --> 00:21:13,404
She keeps the place
as clean as an operating room.
500
00:21:13,406 --> 00:21:14,839
She's a nurse, you know.
501
00:21:14,841 --> 00:21:16,674
The bums upstairs,
502
00:21:16,676 --> 00:21:18,809
they don't even
tie their trash,
503
00:21:18,811 --> 00:21:21,412
but Elaine
double-bags hers.
504
00:21:21,414 --> 00:21:24,849
Cats, they should all die.
505
00:21:24,851 --> 00:21:27,351
GREEVEY:
A lot of garbage
for one day, huh?
506
00:21:27,353 --> 00:21:29,487
Ha, that's been there
since Monday.
507
00:21:29,489 --> 00:21:31,455
They pay these guys
more than teachers,
508
00:21:31,457 --> 00:21:33,424
and they come around,
what, twice a week?
509
00:21:33,426 --> 00:21:34,358
Thank you, Mrs. Birnbaum.
510
00:21:37,330 --> 00:21:39,430
No, you're kidding, right?
511
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,734
I just dry-cleaned this suit.
512
00:21:43,736 --> 00:21:45,403
( laughing )
513
00:21:47,373 --> 00:21:49,340
Blood type's
a perfect match.
514
00:21:49,342 --> 00:21:50,608
We got six more just like it
515
00:21:50,610 --> 00:21:52,310
and enough cotton
to make a ball game.
516
00:21:52,312 --> 00:21:53,477
Where did you
find it?
517
00:21:53,479 --> 00:21:54,745
Garbage.
518
00:21:54,747 --> 00:21:56,080
What difference
does it make?
519
00:21:56,082 --> 00:21:57,381
We had a warrant.
520
00:21:57,383 --> 00:21:58,582
A warrant for
her apartment.
521
00:21:58,584 --> 00:22:02,653
Her garbage has
constitutional rights?
522
00:22:02,655 --> 00:22:05,089
It's out in the street,
it's either the city's or hers.
523
00:22:05,091 --> 00:22:06,524
It's called curtilage.
524
00:22:06,526 --> 00:22:08,426
It might be protected.
525
00:22:09,729 --> 00:22:12,630
I'm not saying
it's inadmissible,
526
00:22:12,632 --> 00:22:15,099
but there's
always a chance.
527
00:22:15,101 --> 00:22:17,868
God bless America.
528
00:22:17,870 --> 00:22:20,905
It's enough for me.
529
00:22:20,907 --> 00:22:23,441
Both of them?
530
00:22:28,748 --> 00:22:30,047
MAN:
When Phillip Woodleigh
found out
531
00:22:30,049 --> 00:22:33,617
I was on the board
of the Organ Transplant Network,
532
00:22:33,619 --> 00:22:35,353
he came to my office
533
00:22:35,355 --> 00:22:39,623
and promised to make significant
contributions to O.T.N.,
534
00:22:39,625 --> 00:22:43,828
if I would prioritize
his daughter's case.
535
00:22:43,830 --> 00:22:47,531
And you said?
536
00:22:47,533 --> 00:22:49,033
In 1990,
537
00:22:49,035 --> 00:22:52,737
there were over 100,000
patients on dialysis.
538
00:22:52,739 --> 00:22:55,373
Only 8,800
received kidneys.
539
00:22:55,375 --> 00:22:58,909
Money does not always buy
happiness, Mr. Stone.
540
00:22:58,911 --> 00:23:00,644
Some people might disagree.
541
00:23:00,646 --> 00:23:03,614
It certainly shouldn't buy life.
542
00:23:03,616 --> 00:23:04,915
It is imperative
543
00:23:04,917 --> 00:23:06,917
that these people
be punished.
544
00:23:06,919 --> 00:23:09,687
Reberty and Hale
are being charged.
545
00:23:09,689 --> 00:23:11,822
I don't think you quite
understand, Mr. Stone.
546
00:23:11,824 --> 00:23:13,891
We'd like you to
set your sights
547
00:23:13,893 --> 00:23:15,926
higher up the
food chain.
548
00:23:15,928 --> 00:23:18,062
Woodleigh?
549
00:23:18,064 --> 00:23:20,664
The public must understand that
the Organ Transplant Network
550
00:23:20,666 --> 00:23:23,734
is the one true democracy,
551
00:23:23,736 --> 00:23:29,106
one of the few instances where
money doesn't talk... at all.
552
00:23:31,577 --> 00:23:33,711
I understand.
553
00:23:33,713 --> 00:23:35,946
Defendants are charged
with attempt to commit murder
554
00:23:35,948 --> 00:23:37,915
in the second degree,
555
00:23:37,917 --> 00:23:39,417
assault in the
first degree,
556
00:23:39,419 --> 00:23:41,419
conspiracy in
the first degree,
557
00:23:41,421 --> 00:23:42,853
and grand larceny.
558
00:23:42,855 --> 00:23:44,688
How do you plead?
559
00:23:44,690 --> 00:23:46,123
Not guilty, Your Honor.
560
00:23:46,125 --> 00:23:47,591
Not guilty.
561
00:23:47,593 --> 00:23:50,060
JUDGE:
Applications, Mr. Robinette?
562
00:23:50,062 --> 00:23:52,430
The People are outraged
563
00:23:52,432 --> 00:23:54,732
at the violent nature of
the crimes charged, Your Honor,
564
00:23:54,734 --> 00:23:57,701
and feel that heinous behavior
of such magnitude
565
00:23:57,703 --> 00:24:00,704
in and of itself demands
bail of $750,000.
566
00:24:00,706 --> 00:24:01,939
PATTON:
May I remind Mr. Robinette
567
00:24:01,941 --> 00:24:03,707
that it's not
the D.A.'S province
568
00:24:03,709 --> 00:24:05,676
to determine punishment
prior to trial.
569
00:24:05,678 --> 00:24:06,844
It would strain
all credibility
570
00:24:06,846 --> 00:24:08,979
to imagine a man
of Dr. Reberty's stature...
571
00:24:08,981 --> 00:24:12,783
Yes, Mr. Patton,
I'm sure we would all prefer
572
00:24:12,785 --> 00:24:14,118
to keep our strain to a minimum.
573
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:15,219
What do you want?
574
00:24:15,221 --> 00:24:17,021
R.O.R., Your Honor.
575
00:24:17,023 --> 00:24:18,122
Defendants are charged
576
00:24:18,124 --> 00:24:19,723
with violent felonies.
577
00:24:19,725 --> 00:24:22,059
Accused, Mr. Robinette.
578
00:24:22,061 --> 00:24:24,862
May I, Your Honor?
579
00:24:24,864 --> 00:24:26,197
It's your right.
580
00:24:26,199 --> 00:24:27,898
I'm sure
581
00:24:27,900 --> 00:24:30,835
that we all have our
jobs to do, Your Honor,
582
00:24:30,837 --> 00:24:34,472
but there is a 62-year-old
grandmother of six
583
00:24:34,474 --> 00:24:37,475
lying in Gramercy Hospital,
who full well expects
584
00:24:37,477 --> 00:24:41,011
to undergo critical
renal surgery this afternoon.
585
00:24:41,013 --> 00:24:43,147
And?
586
00:24:43,149 --> 00:24:46,217
And the prosecution's
unconscionable demands
587
00:24:46,219 --> 00:24:51,188
would cause her grievous
if not irreparable damage.
588
00:24:51,190 --> 00:24:54,658
We're impressed
with your love of life, Doctor.
589
00:24:54,660 --> 00:24:57,928
Bail is set at $150,000 each.
590
00:24:57,930 --> 00:25:01,232
The top nurse in the city
earns 43,500 a year.
591
00:25:01,234 --> 00:25:03,234
Dr. Reberty could earn
that in a week.
592
00:25:03,236 --> 00:25:06,770
Motive is not part of the
prima facie case for assault.
593
00:25:06,772 --> 00:25:08,272
The credit card receipts...
594
00:25:08,274 --> 00:25:10,274
Do not establish
a material fact.
595
00:25:10,276 --> 00:25:13,177
That's circumstantial evidence
where I come from, Mr. Stone.
596
00:25:13,179 --> 00:25:15,913
They'll get me to a jury,
and then I'll take my chances.
597
00:25:15,915 --> 00:25:17,715
REBERTY:
This is absurd.
598
00:25:17,717 --> 00:25:20,985
Miss Hale is my assistant.
599
00:25:20,987 --> 00:25:24,989
She has access to my cards
and authority to use them.
600
00:25:24,991 --> 00:25:27,691
The entire transaction
took place over the phone.
601
00:25:27,693 --> 00:25:29,927
Without my client's knowledge.
602
00:25:29,929 --> 00:25:31,262
Are you suggesting
603
00:25:31,264 --> 00:25:34,265
that Miss Hale performed
the surgery herself?
604
00:25:34,267 --> 00:25:38,102
Any second-year resident
can remove a kidney, Mr. Stone.
605
00:25:38,104 --> 00:25:43,040
The talent lies with those
that can put one in.
606
00:25:53,152 --> 00:25:57,721
Miss Hale is a competent nurse.
607
00:25:57,723 --> 00:26:00,057
We've been together
for years.
608
00:26:00,059 --> 00:26:04,028
I had intended to let
the credit card business go...
609
00:26:06,966 --> 00:26:10,301
but if it's a help to your case,
I'll testify against her.
610
00:26:12,738 --> 00:26:16,140
What's it going to take
to make you happy, Stone?
611
00:26:16,142 --> 00:26:20,911
The Mets in the Series,
peace on Earth,
612
00:26:20,913 --> 00:26:25,249
and Dr. Reberty in Danamorra.
613
00:26:25,251 --> 00:26:27,851
Let's go, James.
614
00:26:34,026 --> 00:26:36,293
MAN:
Attempted murder is absurd.
615
00:26:36,295 --> 00:26:38,329
Whoever did this
stitched MacDaniels up.
616
00:26:38,331 --> 00:26:40,931
It looks to me like
they wanted him to live.
617
00:26:40,933 --> 00:26:42,066
Now, where's the intent?
618
00:26:42,068 --> 00:26:43,367
Correct me if
I'm wrong, Miss Hale,
619
00:26:43,369 --> 00:26:46,003
but any first-year
surgical resident knows
620
00:26:46,005 --> 00:26:48,138
if you don't tie
the renal vein,
the patient dies,
621
00:26:48,140 --> 00:26:50,207
so whoever operated
on MacDaniel
622
00:26:50,209 --> 00:26:52,776
either didn't know
what he was doing or
wanted him to die.
623
00:26:52,778 --> 00:26:54,878
I saw him tie...
Elaine!
624
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,880
30 more minutes
longer on that bench,
we'd be discussing
625
00:26:56,882 --> 00:26:58,616
a murder charge,
not attempt.
ROBINETTE:
You should also know
626
00:26:58,618 --> 00:27:00,951
he's offered
to testify against you.
627
00:27:06,192 --> 00:27:08,025
Assault one, minimum.
628
00:27:08,027 --> 00:27:09,960
She serves two.
629
00:27:15,301 --> 00:27:17,334
Love isn't blind, it's stupid.
630
00:27:17,336 --> 00:27:19,903
To think
I actually believed in him.
631
00:27:19,905 --> 00:27:21,171
Reberty?
632
00:27:21,173 --> 00:27:22,640
What about Woodleigh?
633
00:27:22,642 --> 00:27:25,142
I had no contact with him.
634
00:27:26,812 --> 00:27:31,382
James swore he would keep
MacDaniel alive.
635
00:27:31,384 --> 00:27:35,819
He said he could close while
I packed the kidney in ice.
636
00:27:35,821 --> 00:27:40,357
We rolled him into the park
in a wheelchair.
637
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,092
I saw the bleeding.
638
00:27:42,094 --> 00:27:45,262
He said it
was just oozing.
639
00:27:45,264 --> 00:27:50,401
He wanted him to die all along,
no loose ends.
640
00:27:50,403 --> 00:27:54,371
I said I wouldn't help
unless he kept him alive.
641
00:27:57,009 --> 00:28:01,445
And we would have lived
happily ever after.
642
00:28:04,116 --> 00:28:05,349
She's an accomplice, Ben.
643
00:28:05,351 --> 00:28:07,918
Even with her testimony,
we need corroboration.
644
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:08,952
We have the credit receipts.
645
00:28:08,954 --> 00:28:10,087
Unsigned.
646
00:28:10,089 --> 00:28:11,689
She confessed,
she cut a deal.
647
00:28:11,690 --> 00:28:13,290
She obviously needed the money
more than Reberty.
648
00:28:13,292 --> 00:28:14,575
That's a lot of baggage,
649
00:28:14,576 --> 00:28:15,859
especially when he walks
into court
650
00:28:15,861 --> 00:28:17,294
with his awards and testimonials
under his arms.
651
00:28:17,296 --> 00:28:18,929
You believe him?
652
00:28:18,931 --> 00:28:20,397
I'm not the jury.
653
00:28:20,399 --> 00:28:22,032
Who do you think
is more credible?
654
00:28:22,034 --> 00:28:24,168
Why, him, but that's why
we have to discredit him.
655
00:28:24,170 --> 00:28:26,103
Run down
his seven deadly sins.
656
00:28:26,105 --> 00:28:28,205
And start
with credit reports.
657
00:28:28,207 --> 00:28:30,407
Question the family,
the friends, wives.
658
00:28:30,409 --> 00:28:32,176
Ex-wives are always good.
659
00:28:32,178 --> 00:28:35,345
What's the difference
between a doctor and God,
660
00:28:35,347 --> 00:28:36,480
Mr. Robinette?
661
00:28:36,482 --> 00:28:39,349
God doesn't think
he's a doctor.
662
00:28:39,351 --> 00:28:41,385
Is that why you left him?
663
00:28:41,387 --> 00:28:43,287
I was lonely,
not stupid.
664
00:28:43,289 --> 00:28:46,223
Greenwich, Connecticut
is easy to get used to.
665
00:28:46,225 --> 00:28:48,292
But you learn
to live without.
666
00:28:48,294 --> 00:28:49,927
He left you?
667
00:28:49,929 --> 00:28:52,296
Thanks.
668
00:28:52,298 --> 00:28:54,164
Anyway, it was all
for the best.
669
00:28:54,166 --> 00:28:57,434
I hear he sold the place
in Greenwich for a song.
670
00:28:57,436 --> 00:29:01,004
What the hell does a rich
doctor from Connecticut
671
00:29:01,006 --> 00:29:02,906
know about Arizona
anyway?
672
00:29:02,908 --> 00:29:05,642
Arizona?
673
00:29:05,643 --> 00:29:08,377
He put three million into
a string of private hospitals.
674
00:29:08,380 --> 00:29:10,414
And he's losing
his money?
675
00:29:10,416 --> 00:29:14,418
That, or a kidney doesn't go
as far as it used to.
676
00:29:14,420 --> 00:29:18,522
Alimony payments dried
up six months ago.
677
00:29:18,524 --> 00:29:21,391
He'd have put his money in
S and Ls, had he thought of it.
678
00:29:21,393 --> 00:29:24,428
He's being dunned by every bank
from Queens to Albuquerque.
679
00:29:24,430 --> 00:29:26,396
D and B, T.R.W.
680
00:29:26,398 --> 00:29:27,464
He hasn't paid
his phone bill
681
00:29:27,466 --> 00:29:29,099
in three months.
682
00:29:29,101 --> 00:29:31,935
Title report on his real
property will be in next week,
683
00:29:31,937 --> 00:29:32,936
but it's moot.
684
00:29:32,937 --> 00:29:33,936
Bank already told me
685
00:29:33,939 --> 00:29:35,939
about the foreclose
on his East Hampton house.
686
00:29:35,941 --> 00:29:37,407
Reberty had a problem.
687
00:29:37,409 --> 00:29:38,942
Woodleigh had the solution.
688
00:29:38,944 --> 00:29:40,344
And vice versa.
689
00:29:40,346 --> 00:29:42,346
Motive bolsters
the circumstantial evidence.
690
00:29:42,348 --> 00:29:44,515
Physical evidence
would go a long way.
691
00:29:46,352 --> 00:29:48,519
Call Greevey.
692
00:29:52,558 --> 00:29:54,391
Waste of time.
693
00:29:54,393 --> 00:29:57,995
The owner says they clean
everything on the way in
694
00:29:57,997 --> 00:29:59,229
and on the way out.
695
00:29:59,231 --> 00:30:00,848
I read about this guy
696
00:30:00,849 --> 00:30:02,466
who went into a hospital
with a broken leg--
697
00:30:02,468 --> 00:30:04,334
came out
with meningitis.
698
00:30:04,336 --> 00:30:07,171
You gotta stop
reading the obits, Max.
699
00:30:07,173 --> 00:30:09,540
You guys must live
exemplary lives.
700
00:30:13,979 --> 00:30:16,079
Seek and ye shall find.
701
00:30:16,081 --> 00:30:17,481
The good doctor
702
00:30:17,483 --> 00:30:20,217
left the proverbial sponge
in the patient.
703
00:30:20,219 --> 00:30:22,419
The wheelchair they used
to transport the vic--
704
00:30:22,421 --> 00:30:23,587
covered with prints.
705
00:30:23,589 --> 00:30:26,089
Macdaniel,
Hale and...
706
00:30:26,091 --> 00:30:27,090
Reberty?
707
00:30:27,092 --> 00:30:28,091
Bingo.
708
00:30:28,093 --> 00:30:29,359
Excellent.
Thanks, Max.
709
00:30:29,361 --> 00:30:32,229
Sure.
710
00:30:32,230 --> 00:30:35,098
RES IPSA LOQUITUR:
The thing speaks for itself.
711
00:30:35,100 --> 00:30:36,834
He's a doctor.
712
00:30:36,835 --> 00:30:38,569
His prints are probably
on a thousand wheelchairs.
713
00:30:38,571 --> 00:30:40,337
Along with MacDaniels'
and Hale's?
714
00:30:40,339 --> 00:30:41,338
I doubt it.
715
00:30:41,340 --> 00:30:42,439
You still need
716
00:30:42,441 --> 00:30:44,374
a temporal connection.
717
00:30:44,376 --> 00:30:49,379
For 350 an hour, you can do
better than that, Mr. Patton.
718
00:30:49,381 --> 00:30:51,582
All right,
I want a deal.
719
00:30:51,584 --> 00:30:55,118
A deal requires
mutual consideration, doctor.
720
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,621
You've got nothing
that interests me.
721
00:30:58,557 --> 00:31:00,257
Sure, I have.
722
00:31:01,260 --> 00:31:02,459
I've got Woodleigh.
723
00:31:05,397 --> 00:31:08,131
Over and over and over,
the same material.
724
00:31:08,133 --> 00:31:11,335
I'm telling you my friend,
it's a flyer.
725
00:31:11,337 --> 00:31:13,403
Woodleigh gave Reberty
a million dollars
726
00:31:13,405 --> 00:31:15,138
and told him to do
727
00:31:15,140 --> 00:31:16,139
"whatever it takes."
728
00:31:16,141 --> 00:31:17,608
Doesn't mean
729
00:31:17,609 --> 00:31:19,076
that he had the intent
to commit assault.
730
00:31:19,078 --> 00:31:24,314
A border cop stops a car
731
00:31:24,316 --> 00:31:26,550
and finds a hundred pounds
of marijuana in the trunk.
732
00:31:26,552 --> 00:31:29,453
At trial, the driver testifies
that the owner of the car
733
00:31:29,455 --> 00:31:31,622
gave him $100 to drive
cross the border,
734
00:31:31,624 --> 00:31:34,424
but warned him
not to look inside that trunk.
735
00:31:34,426 --> 00:31:36,343
Guilty or not?
736
00:31:36,344 --> 00:31:38,261
He had no actual knowledge
what was in the...
737
00:31:38,264 --> 00:31:39,463
He would have
738
00:31:39,465 --> 00:31:41,131
had he asked the questions.
739
00:31:41,133 --> 00:31:44,067
Willful blindness
never cut it in New York.
740
00:31:44,069 --> 00:31:46,370
So we make new law.
741
00:31:46,372 --> 00:31:48,505
So we get dismissed.
742
00:31:50,609 --> 00:31:53,110
Am I missing something here?
743
00:31:53,112 --> 00:31:56,346
Woodleigh instigated
a vicious attack.
744
00:31:56,348 --> 00:32:00,384
Phillip Woodleigh happens to be
a major political cash cow
745
00:32:00,386 --> 00:32:01,652
in this city.
746
00:32:01,654 --> 00:32:04,154
Good God, Adam.
747
00:32:04,156 --> 00:32:06,490
You're not going to let that
affect your judgment are you?
748
00:32:06,492 --> 00:32:09,393
If I thought you had
a chance in hell of winning,
749
00:32:09,395 --> 00:32:11,295
I'd hold a press conference
right now.
750
00:32:11,297 --> 00:32:13,363
But you can't rewrite the law.
751
00:32:13,365 --> 00:32:17,634
Maybe not, but a personal agenda
should not stop me from trying.
752
00:32:17,636 --> 00:32:20,470
My agenda
has nothing to do with it.
753
00:32:20,472 --> 00:32:22,439
12 times this year alone,
754
00:32:22,441 --> 00:32:27,377
judges have refused to instruct
juries on willful blindness.
755
00:32:27,379 --> 00:32:30,614
13th time could be different.
756
00:32:32,251 --> 00:32:35,352
Yeah. We win at trial,
lose on appeal.
757
00:32:35,354 --> 00:32:37,421
Maybe, maybe not.
758
00:32:37,423 --> 00:32:42,125
"The law should be stable
but should never stand still."
759
00:32:42,127 --> 00:32:45,495
It's nice you can still
quote Holmes.
760
00:32:45,497 --> 00:32:47,197
What does Reberty want?
761
00:32:47,199 --> 00:32:50,534
Drop the murder charge,
and he pleads to assault one.
762
00:32:50,536 --> 00:32:52,302
You call Cragen.
763
00:32:52,304 --> 00:32:55,372
I'll call Woodleigh's attorney,
Dan Rubell.
764
00:32:55,374 --> 00:32:58,508
He was my editor
on the Law Review.
765
00:32:58,510 --> 00:33:00,610
There goes my reunion.
766
00:33:05,384 --> 00:33:06,750
Hey, you know,
it's not every day
767
00:33:06,752 --> 00:33:09,519
we get to bust someone
on Park and 68th Street.
768
00:33:09,521 --> 00:33:11,388
We're not busting him.
769
00:33:11,390 --> 00:33:13,290
He's surrendering.
770
00:33:18,263 --> 00:33:19,429
Mr. Woodleigh.
771
00:33:19,431 --> 00:33:21,531
I hope
this won't take long.
772
00:33:33,178 --> 00:33:35,178
JUDGE:
The charges are
attempted murder,
773
00:33:35,180 --> 00:33:36,413
assault in the first degree,
774
00:33:36,415 --> 00:33:38,215
conspiracy
in the first degree
775
00:33:38,217 --> 00:33:39,750
and grand larceny.
776
00:33:39,752 --> 00:33:41,752
How does the defendant plead?
777
00:33:41,754 --> 00:33:44,087
Not guilty on all charges,
Your Honor.
778
00:33:44,089 --> 00:33:46,390
You have a bail recommendation?
779
00:33:46,392 --> 00:33:48,759
350,000, Judge.
780
00:33:48,761 --> 00:33:50,594
So ordered.
781
00:33:50,595 --> 00:33:52,428
Judge, I'd like to request
that Mr. Woodleigh
782
00:33:52,431 --> 00:33:54,431
be allowed to remain
in the courtroom
783
00:33:54,433 --> 00:33:56,366
while I arrange
a transfer money
from his bank.
784
00:33:56,368 --> 00:33:58,068
For the record,
Your Honor,
785
00:33:58,070 --> 00:33:59,669
The People take exception
786
00:33:59,671 --> 00:34:02,105
to any preferential treatment
shown Mr. Woodleigh.
787
00:34:02,107 --> 00:34:04,374
Do The People believe
Mr. Woodleigh is a flight risk?
788
00:34:04,376 --> 00:34:07,110
It's almost 4:30.
By the time
789
00:34:07,112 --> 00:34:08,211
you're back here,
790
00:34:08,213 --> 00:34:09,663
the defendant will have missed
791
00:34:09,664 --> 00:34:11,114
the prisoners bus
for Rikers Island.
792
00:34:11,116 --> 00:34:13,383
Rikers?
793
00:34:13,385 --> 00:34:15,819
Request denied.
794
00:34:17,790 --> 00:34:20,257
It's not like you, Dan,
to take personal offense.
795
00:34:20,259 --> 00:34:22,125
We're all lawyers here.
796
00:34:22,127 --> 00:34:25,328
I'm glad
you didn't say friends.
797
00:34:27,132 --> 00:34:31,268
Even acquaintances would have
had some sort of... dialogue
798
00:34:31,270 --> 00:34:32,803
about something like this.
799
00:34:32,805 --> 00:34:36,106
You make it sound like Phillip
got the rubber hose treatment.
800
00:34:36,108 --> 00:34:37,207
What's your problem?
801
00:34:37,209 --> 00:34:38,775
My problem is,
I'll have to drive
802
00:34:38,777 --> 00:34:40,644
up to Rikers
during rush hour,
803
00:34:40,645 --> 00:34:42,512
and the damn FDR is still
under construction.
804
00:34:42,514 --> 00:34:44,865
And then I had
to go through security
805
00:34:44,866 --> 00:34:47,217
and those bastards, they
love to bust your chops.
806
00:34:47,219 --> 00:34:49,853
The better your suit,
the worse you're treated.
807
00:34:49,855 --> 00:34:51,288
You know that, Adam.
808
00:34:51,290 --> 00:34:53,490
This is supposed
to be a dialogue.
809
00:34:53,492 --> 00:34:55,525
It sounds more like a diatribe.
810
00:34:55,527 --> 00:34:58,762
The man's a distinguished
lecturer at Columbia.
811
00:34:58,764 --> 00:35:01,231
He's endowed scholarships
812
00:35:01,233 --> 00:35:04,167
at three different universities
in the city.
813
00:35:04,169 --> 00:35:08,171
He single-handedly created
the burn wing at city hospital.
814
00:35:08,173 --> 00:35:09,306
And he's able
to leap tall buildings
815
00:35:09,308 --> 00:35:10,874
in a single bound,
so what?
816
00:35:10,876 --> 00:35:12,442
Mr. Robinett merely
made an observation
817
00:35:12,444 --> 00:35:13,810
as an officer
of the court.
818
00:35:13,812 --> 00:35:16,113
The judge concurred,
so let's move on, all right?
819
00:35:16,115 --> 00:35:21,118
The idea that Phillip Woodleigh
knew anything about an attack
820
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,287
on an innocent victim
is ludicrous in the extreme.
821
00:35:24,289 --> 00:35:28,258
What he says he knew and what
his actual knowledge was
822
00:35:28,260 --> 00:35:30,594
is something
for the court to decide.
823
00:35:30,596 --> 00:35:33,497
You're serious.
824
00:35:33,499 --> 00:35:36,366
You know him, Adam.
825
00:35:36,368 --> 00:35:38,401
The man's 73,
for God's sake.
826
00:35:38,403 --> 00:35:42,372
He's taking hydromorphone
for his heart.
827
00:35:42,374 --> 00:35:44,141
One of his kidneys
is half on the fritz,
828
00:35:44,143 --> 00:35:46,510
and you're threatening
to send him to prison?
829
00:35:46,512 --> 00:35:48,178
It's monstrous.
830
00:35:48,180 --> 00:35:51,815
We'll see he gets a cell
adjoining Dr. Reberty's.
831
00:36:09,368 --> 00:36:12,836
You'd sure as hell
better be right about this.
832
00:36:20,245 --> 00:36:22,546
Mr. Macdaniel, would you
describe for the court
833
00:36:22,548 --> 00:36:25,549
how you felt when
you regained consciousness
834
00:36:25,551 --> 00:36:27,817
that morning
in Central Park.
835
00:36:27,819 --> 00:36:29,953
How I felt?
836
00:36:29,955 --> 00:36:31,454
I felt lousy.
837
00:36:31,456 --> 00:36:33,190
Were you in pain?
838
00:36:33,192 --> 00:36:35,959
They ripped off
one of my kidneys.
839
00:36:35,961 --> 00:36:37,561
And when you first learned
that's what had happened,
840
00:36:37,563 --> 00:36:39,296
how did you feel?
841
00:36:41,533 --> 00:36:44,267
People talk about
feeling violated
842
00:36:44,269 --> 00:36:47,270
when some punk breaks
into their apartment
843
00:36:47,272 --> 00:36:49,339
and steals their TV set.
844
00:36:51,677 --> 00:36:53,343
I felt raped.
845
00:36:54,980 --> 00:36:57,948
Would you mind taking off
your shirt, Mr. MacDaniel?
846
00:36:57,950 --> 00:37:00,350
Objection, Your Honor.
847
00:37:00,352 --> 00:37:02,953
I feel the jury should be able
to see why he felt violated.
848
00:37:02,955 --> 00:37:04,487
Overruled.
849
00:37:06,558 --> 00:37:09,226
Mr. MacDaniel.
850
00:37:33,885 --> 00:37:36,286
One more question.
851
00:37:36,288 --> 00:37:39,990
What do you think would be
a satisfactory conclusion
852
00:37:39,992 --> 00:37:41,524
to this case?
853
00:37:43,996 --> 00:37:46,563
Getting my kidney back.
854
00:37:46,565 --> 00:37:48,498
No further questions.
855
00:37:49,635 --> 00:37:51,301
And did you, in exchange
856
00:37:51,303 --> 00:37:53,570
for sentencing down
on a lesser charge
857
00:37:53,572 --> 00:37:56,473
agree to testify against
Mr. Woodleigh, Doctor?
858
00:37:56,475 --> 00:37:57,974
Yes, I did.
859
00:37:57,976 --> 00:38:00,310
And did you do so
without coercion
860
00:38:00,312 --> 00:38:02,479
and with the full intent
of telling the truth?
861
00:38:02,481 --> 00:38:05,048
That is correct.
Very well.
862
00:38:05,050 --> 00:38:07,450
Now, when you informed
Mr. Woodleigh
863
00:38:07,452 --> 00:38:09,552
that the odds of his obtaining
864
00:38:09,554 --> 00:38:12,389
a perfectly matched kidney
for his daughter
865
00:38:12,391 --> 00:38:14,024
were extremely long,
866
00:38:14,026 --> 00:38:15,392
what did he say?
867
00:38:15,394 --> 00:38:17,027
He said that he didn't care.
868
00:38:17,029 --> 00:38:19,629
He wanted a kidney
whatever the cost.
869
00:38:19,631 --> 00:38:21,064
Whatever the cost.
870
00:38:21,066 --> 00:38:24,934
Yet Dr. Backus just testified
871
00:38:24,936 --> 00:38:26,936
that he informed
the Woodleigh family
872
00:38:26,938 --> 00:38:30,006
of the impossibility
of buying a kidney.
873
00:38:30,008 --> 00:38:32,976
Legally, that is.
874
00:38:32,978 --> 00:38:37,981
Do you think Mr. Woodleigh
fully understood
875
00:38:37,983 --> 00:38:40,350
what he was asking you
to do for him?
876
00:38:40,352 --> 00:38:41,618
Objection, Your Honor.
Speculation.
877
00:38:41,620 --> 00:38:43,486
Sustained.
878
00:38:46,024 --> 00:38:47,957
Did Mr. Woodleigh ever ask you
879
00:38:47,959 --> 00:38:49,659
what the potential problems
might be?
880
00:38:49,661 --> 00:38:51,961
No, he didn't.
881
00:38:51,963 --> 00:38:54,998
His only words were
"whatever the cost."
882
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,102
And how much did the kidney
cost Mr. Woodleigh?
883
00:38:59,104 --> 00:39:02,372
A little over a million.
884
00:39:02,374 --> 00:39:05,108
STONE:
No further questions.
885
00:39:06,678 --> 00:39:10,580
Dr. Reberty, did Mr. Woodleigh
ever ask you to go out
886
00:39:10,582 --> 00:39:13,083
and cut open an innocent man?
887
00:39:15,754 --> 00:39:18,488
If you would answer yes or no,
please,
888
00:39:19,991 --> 00:39:22,826
Well... no.
889
00:39:22,828 --> 00:39:25,128
Did you ever tell him
890
00:39:25,130 --> 00:39:29,099
you planned to cut open
an innocent man?
891
00:39:29,101 --> 00:39:33,603
As I just stated,
he told me to do whatever was...
892
00:39:33,605 --> 00:39:36,106
Did you ever tell him, Doctor?
Yes or no, please.
893
00:39:37,609 --> 00:39:39,509
No.
894
00:39:51,056 --> 00:39:52,689
Excuse me, Mr. Stone.
895
00:39:54,092 --> 00:39:57,093
I'm Joanna Woodleigh.
896
00:39:59,064 --> 00:40:01,131
Come in, Miss Woodleigh.
897
00:40:01,133 --> 00:40:05,101
Are you aware that my father
has established a trust fund
898
00:40:05,103 --> 00:40:07,837
for Mr. MacDaniel
and his children?
899
00:40:07,839 --> 00:40:09,572
No.
900
00:40:09,574 --> 00:40:13,576
I didn't think so.
901
00:40:13,578 --> 00:40:17,614
That's the way he works--
quietly,
902
00:40:17,616 --> 00:40:22,085
unselfishly.
903
00:40:22,087 --> 00:40:25,488
If you prosecute him,
he'll die.
904
00:40:25,490 --> 00:40:27,157
I know he will.
905
00:40:27,159 --> 00:40:28,892
And for what?
906
00:40:28,894 --> 00:40:32,495
Mr. MacDaniel is going
to be a wealthy man.
907
00:40:32,497 --> 00:40:34,097
With only one kidney.
908
00:40:34,099 --> 00:40:37,567
Just like I have, Mr. Stone.
909
00:40:37,569 --> 00:40:41,838
The hope is, we'll both live
long and happy lives.
910
00:40:45,177 --> 00:40:48,611
Please believe me,
I'm glad you're healthy again.
911
00:40:48,613 --> 00:40:51,614
I know how close
to death you were.
912
00:40:51,616 --> 00:40:54,150
But, Miss Woodleigh,
913
00:40:54,152 --> 00:40:58,655
do you really think your father
would have acted any differently
914
00:40:58,657 --> 00:41:03,793
if you had needed a heart
instead of a kidney?
915
00:41:14,706 --> 00:41:17,640
Whatever part
I may have played--
916
00:41:17,642 --> 00:41:20,877
unwittingly played--
in Mr. MacDaniel's pain
917
00:41:20,879 --> 00:41:22,879
will haunt me
for the rest of my life.
918
00:41:22,881 --> 00:41:26,216
Unwittingly.
919
00:41:26,218 --> 00:41:28,685
Where did you think the organ
920
00:41:28,687 --> 00:41:30,186
your daughter
so desperately needed
921
00:41:30,188 --> 00:41:31,621
came from, Mr. Woodleigh?
922
00:41:31,623 --> 00:41:33,156
I had no idea.
923
00:41:33,158 --> 00:41:35,925
I assumed it was
an innocent transaction.
924
00:41:35,927 --> 00:41:38,895
But frankly, given the urgency
of the situation,
925
00:41:38,897 --> 00:41:40,697
I really didn't ask.
926
00:41:40,699 --> 00:41:43,633
I mean Gramercy is one of the
most reputable hospitals
927
00:41:43,635 --> 00:41:45,168
in the world, so why would I?
928
00:41:45,170 --> 00:41:49,272
No further questions,
Your Honor.
929
00:41:49,274 --> 00:41:51,875
You're a businessman,
Mr. Woodleigh.
930
00:41:51,877 --> 00:41:54,177
A highly successful businessman.
931
00:41:54,179 --> 00:41:56,579
Well, I've been fortunate, yes.
932
00:41:56,581 --> 00:41:59,582
And, uh, you probably make it
your business
933
00:41:59,584 --> 00:42:02,185
to ask pertinent questions
before you enter a deal.
934
00:42:02,187 --> 00:42:03,186
Is that true?
935
00:42:03,188 --> 00:42:04,588
Objection,
Your Honor.
936
00:42:04,589 --> 00:42:05,989
Mr. Woodleigh's
business transactions
937
00:42:05,991 --> 00:42:07,790
are not on trial here.
938
00:42:07,792 --> 00:42:08,791
This goes to intent, Your Honor.
939
00:42:08,793 --> 00:42:10,159
Overruled.
940
00:42:10,161 --> 00:42:12,595
Why didn't you inquire
into a transaction
941
00:42:12,597 --> 00:42:16,232
that was costing you a million
dollars, Mr. Woodleigh?
942
00:42:16,234 --> 00:42:18,868
Because my daughter's life
was at stake.
943
00:42:18,870 --> 00:42:21,020
But still, a million dollars...
944
00:42:21,021 --> 00:42:23,171
Does that really jibe
with your characterization
945
00:42:23,174 --> 00:42:25,909
of this deal
as an innocent transaction?
946
00:42:25,911 --> 00:42:29,212
Well, I, uh... I don't
want to sound immodest,
947
00:42:29,214 --> 00:42:30,780
but there's a term
my accountant uses,
948
00:42:30,782 --> 00:42:32,916
it's called
"creeping decimalism."
949
00:42:32,918 --> 00:42:37,787
He means by that that once
you start adding on zeros,
950
00:42:37,789 --> 00:42:41,291
the sum starts
to become unreal.
951
00:42:41,293 --> 00:42:45,261
In other words, you would
do anything for your daughter.
952
00:42:45,263 --> 00:42:46,663
Absolutely.
953
00:42:46,665 --> 00:42:48,031
Even something illegal?
954
00:42:48,033 --> 00:42:49,032
Wouldn't any father?
955
00:42:49,034 --> 00:42:51,184
Wouldn't you, Mr. Stone?
956
00:42:51,185 --> 00:42:53,335
I'm not on trial, sir,
and I ask the questions here.
957
00:42:59,244 --> 00:43:02,278
Does that "anything"
include murder, sir?
958
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:03,980
No, sir.
959
00:43:05,951 --> 00:43:07,501
Woodleigh knew, Adam.
960
00:43:07,502 --> 00:43:09,052
I know he knew exactly
what Reberty was up to,
961
00:43:09,054 --> 00:43:10,653
and I can't move him an inch.
962
00:43:10,655 --> 00:43:13,623
If you do, the jury
will feel sorry for him.
963
00:43:13,625 --> 00:43:17,860
Remember his words: Any father
would have done the same thing.
964
00:43:17,862 --> 00:43:19,262
If he had a million bucks.
965
00:43:19,264 --> 00:43:20,263
Two million.
966
00:43:20,265 --> 00:43:21,264
What?
967
00:43:21,266 --> 00:43:22,665
Title report
968
00:43:22,667 --> 00:43:24,367
to Dr. Reberty's beach house,
969
00:43:24,368 --> 00:43:26,068
the one First Federal was
about to foreclose on.
970
00:43:26,071 --> 00:43:29,038
He managed to sell it for twice
the fair market value--
971
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:30,907
one million bucks.
972
00:43:30,909 --> 00:43:33,042
I thought we were in a
recession. Who bought it?
973
00:43:33,044 --> 00:43:35,945
Montauk Investments Limited--
974
00:43:35,947 --> 00:43:38,648
one of Woodleigh's
shell corporations.
975
00:43:38,650 --> 00:43:40,333
When?
976
00:43:40,334 --> 00:43:42,017
Papers were filed right
after we arrested Reberty.
977
00:43:42,020 --> 00:43:44,387
I'll be damned.
978
00:43:44,389 --> 00:43:47,390
There's only one reason why
he paid him another million.
979
00:43:47,392 --> 00:43:48,958
To buy his silence.
980
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,259
But he testified.
981
00:43:50,261 --> 00:43:53,963
He testified,
but did he fully testify?
982
00:43:53,965 --> 00:43:57,033
Kind of a stretch, Ben.
983
00:43:57,035 --> 00:43:59,002
I didn't call you in
to watch you tap dance.
984
00:43:59,004 --> 00:44:01,371
Dr. Reberty and I need
time to go over it.
985
00:44:01,373 --> 00:44:03,406
Consider this an official
notification, Doctor:
986
00:44:03,408 --> 00:44:05,008
Our deal is off.
987
00:44:05,010 --> 00:44:06,976
We intend to charge you
with attempted murder.
988
00:44:06,978 --> 00:44:09,979
And any leniency you may have
hoped for is out the window.
989
00:44:09,981 --> 00:44:11,748
That was very cute--
990
00:44:11,750 --> 00:44:13,049
"A little over a million."
991
00:44:13,051 --> 00:44:14,350
A million over a million, sir.
992
00:44:14,352 --> 00:44:16,019
What did Woodleigh
actually say to you
993
00:44:16,021 --> 00:44:17,787
to abide the sins
of omission on the stand?
994
00:44:17,789 --> 00:44:19,088
May I say something?
995
00:44:21,726 --> 00:44:24,394
I'd like to propose a new deal.
996
00:44:24,396 --> 00:44:27,047
Oh, really?
997
00:44:27,048 --> 00:44:29,699
You need requisite
culpable intent on Woodleigh.
998
00:44:34,039 --> 00:44:36,105
Now you've got it.
999
00:44:39,744 --> 00:44:42,879
REBERTY ( on tape ):
We've found the perfect match.
1000
00:44:42,881 --> 00:44:43,980
Woodleigh:
And?
1001
00:44:43,982 --> 00:44:45,982
REBERTY:
Well, he's a healthy guy.
1002
00:44:45,984 --> 00:44:51,054
I don't think he's going to want
to give up one of his kidneys
1003
00:44:51,056 --> 00:44:52,789
without a struggle.
1004
00:44:52,791 --> 00:44:54,123
WOODLEIGH:
You do whatever it takes.
1005
00:44:54,125 --> 00:44:55,792
Now, that's what you're
getting paid for.
1006
00:44:55,794 --> 00:44:58,995
REBERTY:
I don't think that
you understand, Phillip.
1007
00:44:58,997 --> 00:45:00,963
This isn't a question
of going up...
1008
00:45:00,965 --> 00:45:02,732
WOODLEIGH:
No, I understand perfectly well.
1009
00:45:02,734 --> 00:45:05,468
Now you kill the son of a bitch
if you have to.
1010
00:45:05,470 --> 00:45:07,136
Just do it.
1011
00:45:08,073 --> 00:45:09,872
( tape recorder clicks )
1012
00:45:13,344 --> 00:45:17,046
Dr. Reberty, did you record
what the court just heard?
1013
00:45:17,048 --> 00:45:19,849
REBERTY:
Yes, I did.
1014
00:45:24,489 --> 00:45:27,156
Is this the cassette
you used?
1015
00:45:28,793 --> 00:45:30,393
Yes, it is.
1016
00:45:53,952 --> 00:45:57,086
Woodleigh's already filed
his notice of appeal.
1017
00:45:57,088 --> 00:45:58,821
Thought you'd be
interested to know.
1018
00:45:58,823 --> 00:45:59,822
We made our point.
1019
00:45:59,824 --> 00:46:00,673
Which was?
1020
00:46:00,674 --> 00:46:01,523
Money can't buy everything.
1021
00:46:01,526 --> 00:46:03,960
Keeps a lot of lawyers busy.
1022
00:46:03,962 --> 00:46:06,095
Two million dollars
for a kidney...
1023
00:46:06,097 --> 00:46:10,500
The last I heard, the whole
human body in raw material
1024
00:46:10,502 --> 00:46:13,069
isn't worth more than 98 cents.
1025
00:46:13,071 --> 00:46:14,937
Good night, gentlemen.
1026
00:46:14,939 --> 00:46:17,874
Good night.
You never answered
Woodleigh's question,
1027
00:46:17,876 --> 00:46:19,442
the one we had stricken.
1028
00:46:19,443 --> 00:46:21,009
You mean would I have done
what Woodleigh did
1029
00:46:21,012 --> 00:46:21,043
if it were my daughter?
God, I hope not.
