You open it.

Open it.

Here are those shoes.

I thought I lost these.

I love these shoes.

Ever clean your locker?

Between finding, apprehending,

and convicting murderers

and cleaning my locker,

I kind of made a career

decision to do the former.

- You got a lot of lip.

- I got a lot of lip?

- Yeah, you do.

- I got a big nose too.

- Calden, open your locker.

- Why him?

Because he's your partner.

Open it.

Go ahead, open it.

No, don't open it.

You got something to hide?

Yeah, kind of.

You got to do it, son.

Porno.

Commingling funds?

That's my crime?

Commingling?

Guilty.

My alimony number one

comes from money commingled

with my beer money.

My refinanced car commingled

with the short-term loan

to keep the second mortgage paid off,

commingled with my alimony number three,

commingled with every goddamn dime

I've got tied up in my

Mt. Olympus property.

My whole life's commingled.

Well, I'm glad you brought up

the property on Mt. Olympus.

You're attempting to sell

it without disclosing

you also own it.

This isn't about real

estate, is it, Bennie?

Bennie, what the hell's going on here?

Look, as immediate

supervisor of these men,

you are bound to inform me

of any investigation

involving my section.

You're so informed.

You couldn't have told me first?

Welcome to the party, Leon.

I'm trying to find out what I'm guilty of,

besides going to one too many

airport real estate seminars.

Well, for starters, Sergeant,

you know a woman

named Cleo Ricard?

I talk to her.

Talk's cheap.

Because Administrative Vice,

which has been watching her for two years,

is on the verge of making

a major prostitution bust,

and you're in there making promises to her

to intervene.

You haven't registered her

as an informant.

Joe, is this true?

By itself, that's cause for suspension.

I mentioned her name to District

Attorney Gardner six weeks ago,

told him I was going to make a contact.

- He denies that.

- He's a liar.

I haven't registered her as an informant

because she hasn't informed yet.

I don't want to get buried

under a mountain of paperwork

just so Vice can tell me

to back off their suspect.

It's a big case for them.

Bigger than a quadruple murder?

Hey, this is not your decision.

Man...

As no charges have been made,

I request that you release

Sergeant Gavilan and Sergeant Calden

so they can resume their investigations.

Bennie?

Yeah, we'll talk about it...

when he's out of the room.

F*** you very much.

What is with that Macko guy?

Ah, he's a jerk.

A couple years ago,

he was lead detective

on those jockey love-nest murders.

You remember.

Big girls, little guys?

He was bragging to the papers,
