automatic. Don't ask me who, though.

And we found these casings.

Three casings. Looks like there's

a partial print on one, but it's smudged.

Anybody check surveillance?

That monitor's working,

but the machine's empty.

Machine's working.

- But where's the tape?

- Don't know.

And why didn't he take the money?

They chickened out, got scared?

We got three casings, only one hit.

How about that?

Maybe he's farsighted, crappy shooter.

Who knows?

Or he never fired a gun before.

It is...

... astonishing...

... numbing, to find...

... that inside you there is a stranger.

One that has your...

... arms...

... your legs...

... your eyes.

A sleepless, restless stranger...

... who keeps walking...

... keeps eating...

... keeps...

... living.

New York, like any metropolis...

New York, like any metropolis,

is an organism that changes, mutates.

Building sprout-like chromosomes

on the DNA of its streets.

Look, I've got... I've got two shows

that are almost finished.

They're already mixed. All they need is an

intro and an outro, which I could do live.

I've got six shows in various stages.

I've got all these stories in my files.

You know, new stuff, better stuff.

And I know what I'm doing,

and you know that I know what I'm doing.

Erica. You've been through so much.

You need more time before

you put yourself out there.

- Don't make me beg.

- I don't mean to.

But we have a public and I'm not sure

you're ready for it yet.

You telling me I can't work

because of what happened?

I did not say that.

Look...

...I just need to keep living.

You know, I don't wanna...

I don't wanna disappear.

- station WNKW,

located at 90. 1 on the FM dial.

Up next is Street Walk.

Let's now join Erica Bain

in our WNKW studios.

Okay, Erica.

Three, two, one, you're on.

This is Erica Bain, and I walk the city.

New York...

...like any metropolis, is an organism...

Okay. Is there anything we can cut to?

Music, prerecord, anything?

Give me a minute, Carol.

New York...

...like any metropolis...

...is...

Oh, sh*t.

New York...

...the safest big city in the world.

But it is horrible...

...to fear the place you once loved.

And to see a street corner

you knew so well...

...and be afraid of its shadow.

To see familiar steps,

be unable to climb them.

I never understood

how people lived with fear.

Women afraid to walk home alone...

...people afraid of...

...white powder in their mailbox...

...darkness and night.

People afraid of people.

I always believed that fear

belonged to other people.
