- Ok?

- Ok.

Can I get a Coke?

Get a Coke, please, for Johnny.

Now what?

Don't worry,

Johnny's like a trained seal.

Throw him a fish, he'll perform.

Rise and shine, boys.

Time to get up.

What's happening?

I always knew working Homicide

would be glamorous.

I mean, meeting celebrities and all.

Too bad you can't get his autograph.

You know, Harry,

they always die in threes.

When one celebrity dies, two more

always go in a week or two.

It's a fact, Harry.

Celebrities always die in threes.

Well, this one's got crystalline

powder around his nose and mouth.

Scabs up and down both arms.

Fresh puncture marks

on his left forearm.

Yeah, Homicide can be

really glamorous.

All right,

check the dummy out, please.

Meagan.

I want a three-inch lens, very tight.

Try not to drop it.

Let's hurry up and shoot this

and wrap this up, please.

And my second assistant and I

found Johnny in his trailer.

He was just lying there.

At first we thought it was a joke.

- But then, well...

- When did you last see him alive?

About a half-hour before that.

He went back to his trailer

while we set up.

Was he alone?

I don't know.

But he was alone when we found him.

Tell me, does anyone

on your set use drugs?

We don't do drugs, Callahan.

We do film.

Look, what people do

is their own business.

If it doesn't interfere with my film,

I really don't give a sh*t.

What about Squares? Was he using?

How should I know?

Johnny had agents, lawyers, friends.

It was their job to deal with his

drug problem, not mine.

Well, that's a very caring attitude.

What do you want, Callahan?

Drugs were Johnny's trademark.

He made his career singing about them.

It made him controversial.

I can see why you'd want him

in your flick.

It was a marketing decision.

Johnny Squares sells tickets.

You know, bums on seats, love.

Besides, we needed

a music video tie-in.

Any idea who was supplying him?

No, but if I hear of anything,

you'll be the first one I call.

Marvelous.

Check on anyone

who dealt with Squares.

- Whether it was the cast or crew...

- Inspector Callahan.

Inspector.

Sh*t.

Is it true that Johnny Squares OD'd?

We're conducting an investigation.

Right as we speak.

At this point, nothing's been...

Thank you, inspector.

Excuse me, are you Suzanne Dayton?

What's going on here?

Johnny?

Johnny?

Hold it. I'm sorry,

you have to step back.

- No, Johnny!

- There's nothing they can do.

You're gonna make yourself sick.

Hold on, could we

give her a little air?

Out of the way, please.

Off with that camera.

I can film whatever I want.

IKKeep shooting.

This is someone else's heartache.

Right in here.

What are you doing? Give me that.
