This is more than commercials.

Dr. Roberts, long distance

from Chicago for Tina Cassidy.

- Do you wanna take it in the other room?

- Nobody knows I'm here.

- Oh, Jesus. This is bad!

- Oh, Tina, Tina...

Has a big man with a mustache

been here?

Has he been here?

- What do you mean? The police?

- Police?

They're in on it. The police.

Did you mention my name?

Oh, God.

I left my bags in my apartment.

Hey, hey, hey.

Dr. Belfield has gone out of town.

I'm sorry, may I help you?

No, this is not the...

Did you wish to speak

to Dr. Roberts?

"Digital Matrix"?

"Tina Cassidy."

Measurements to the millimeter.

Ellen, call Lieutenant Masters.

Tell him I'm going to Tina's apartment.

So you came to her apartment...

...and while you rang the downstairs bell,

she fell to her death.

Correct.

Then you saw a man with a mustache

on the balcony.

You came up to find him

but when you arrived you were alone.

- Is that it?

- That's it.

That's the worst goddamn story

I ever heard.

- It's the truth.

- Sh*t.

We got 48, 92nd at Vancouver.

"Digital Matrix, Incorporated."

Tina.

Lisa. Susan.

Cindy.

Tina, Lisa, Susan.

Cindy.

Cindy.

Dr. Roberts, what are you doing here?

I'm a friend of Steve's.

I fixed his hand once.

So you just dropped by, huh?

Actually, I wondered

if you were free for dinner tonight.

For dinner?

I thought you didn't date your patients.

Oh, no, I don't. I mean, it's not a date.

It's a fundraiser, black tie.

Actually, my date's sick.

Oh, gee, I don't know, you know?

Thanks, but I don't know if I can.

I don't know when I'm done tonight.

It's at John Reston's.

John Reston?

John Reston who does

half the commercials in L.A.?

I think that's right, yeah.

Well, I mean, l... I could...

What time?

Dr. Roberts?

- Miss Fairmont.

- Hello.

- I'm Jennifer Long.

- How do you do?

Mr. Reston is most anxious

to meet you...

...so if you'll excuse me,

I'll go find him for you.

Thank you.

Cheers.

I've looked over your proposal

for the burns unit.

- It's very interesting.

- Thank you.

How much capitalization do you expect

from the government?

Eleven percent, including local MRC

and research grants...

...but that's only supplementary

running costs once underway.

So you're looking for $ 7 million

to build it.

Well, under appropriate auspices...

...Reston Industries

would be willing to fund 4 million.

What are the appropriate auspices?

It would have to be called

the Reston Burns Unit.

And we'd want something to say

about all press announcements.

Well, for 4 million,

you can have quite a lot of say.

I hoped you'd feel that way.

I gather this is a personal cause for you.
