- What's wrong?

- Oh, Emil, thank you for coming,

but, uh, everything

is fine now and I get dressed...

- and go out...

- What happened?

Well, this morning

I felt those pains...

What happened?

Dominique. What have you done?

Dominique is here?

She was.

Watch out.

Someone might look

in the window.

Help me.

Help me!

- Help me!

- Wh-What are you going to do?

It's a beautiful day

here in New York.

This is Windy Craig

on the radio for you.

On the couch.

Help me.

Put on some makeup.

It must look as if

nothing has happened.

- Drop it there.

- I'm Grace Collier.

I just spoke to you

on the telephone.

How you doing, Miss Collier?

I'm Detective Kelly.

My partner,

Detective Spinetti.

- What seems to be the problem?

- You're the man...

I spoke to,

aren't you?

- That's right.

- Well, I imagine we can discuss...

I hope there's not

too much imagination involved here.

You obviously don't think so,

or you wouldn't be here.

Now, I just saw a man viciously

and repeatedly stabbed.

It was in that apartment up there... 3-R.

The name is Breton.

The man's probably dying

if he's not dead already,

so I think the best thing to do

is to get up there.

All right, take it

easy, will you, lady?

These people are

always stabbing each other.

- "These people"?

- All right, all right. Let's just keep calm.

One step at a time.

Your story is that you

looked out the window.

- What time would that have been?

- Your people have this written down.

The thing to do

is to try to get up there...

and try to save

that poor guy.

Miss Collier, our work

is a profession.

- A doctor, for example, doesn't begin to operate...

- You're not a doctor.

I read your article

about police brutality in Stapleton.

And the next time "The Staten Island"

"Panorama" decides to investigate...

- our methods, I hope they send a real reporter.

- I'm going up there.

- And you're certainly not a cop.

- And you're not either...

if you don't do

something about this.

Unless, of course, you'd rather

go beat up a few students.

Ever hear of a search warrant,

Miss Civil Liberties?

Well, you haven't got one,

and neither do I.

You mean you're actually gonna stand

here and ask me idiotic questions...

like some dumb courtroom

drama while a man dies?

I saw it.

Saw it happen.

- Actually saw it happen.

- Calm down, calm down.

Now, you just go back

to your apartment and relax.

And watch you walk off?

You'd like that,

wouldn't you?

That'd make a great story

for your next issue.

"Police refuse to investigate

brutal race murder."

Not a chance, lady.

You stick with us.

And keep

your mouth shut.

I'll do what

I consider necessary.
