Third Watch s06e14 Episode Script

The Kitchen Sink

Previously on Third Watch: You know who Cathal Finney is? It's Brendan's father.
He killed my dad.
They're saying you had Davis' father killed.
Is it true? I promise you one thing, son.
I'll never spend a day in jail.
Dad! You son of a bitch, don't do this! I bet my father would have liked you.
Yeah, the truth is I don't know if he would have liked you or not, 'cause I didn't really know him.
If you don't let me back, fine.
I'm making this easy for you.
We're finished, through.
It's not about saying the word.
It's about actions.
She left me a note on the door.
What does it say? That I was right, and that she's going home.
This is Ben.
He fell off the jungle gym and hurt his arm.
It hurts.
We'll fix it up.
I want my mommy.
I left two messages with his parents.
He's going to need X rays.
Tell her to meet us at Mercy.
How about I ride with you? You like that? If something happens to me again, will you come get me? You plan to fall off the monkey bars again? No.
But if I do? I'll tell you what.
I'll give you my phone number, and if you ever need anything, you call me.
with highs in the mid-40s and overnight lows just above freezing.
??? You come closer, and I'll shoot you, you hear me? I swear I'll shoot.
We have an out-of-state warrant for your arrest.
You are surrounded.
Let's not make this thing worse than it already is for you.
I'm not sure how you guys do it in Philly, but that's his last warning.
In about a minute, ESU is going in.
That yo killed a cop.
We wouldn't have given him that warning.
What the hell's he doing back here so soon? I guess he wanted to be here.
Is he all here, though? What, you worried about him now? Hey.
Brendan, you all right? I'm fine.
Sorry about your father.
Yeah, I'm sure you are.
We didn't mean for it to end up this way.
Look, I don't need your pity, all right? Where are you going? Somewhere quieter.
You can't keep ignoring me like this.
I've called you.
The way cops keep running away from you, it's like you should be up there with that guy.
Get down.
ESU, if you have the shot, take it.
EMS, stand by.
Doesn't it seem wrong to be just waiting for someone to get hurt? Isn't that what we always do? I mean someone in particular.
How about you don't go all boo-hoo for once? I heard this guy killed a cop in Philadelphia.
What if one of the cops gets hurt? Can I "boo-hoo" then? Do whatever the hell you want to do, Grace.
You know, it's not my fault your girlfriend ran away.
You have problems, Carlos.
You got problems.
Yeah, I just leave them at home.
Damn! This guy's crazy.
Let's go ! Mov' in Watch your weapons.
Hey.
What, you just going to leave? It's over.
It's not over till we're released.
Suspect is in custody with a GSW.
Send that EMS team in, Central.
You happy? Wait, what's going on with you? Maybe I don't want to be around all these cops.
Well, maybe you should get another job.
Hello? Brendan? Who is this? He's hurting her.
Who the hell is this? It's Ben.
From the hospital.
You said you'd help me.

She made me do it.
Oh, God! Oh, God! Ben, if you can, I want you to get out of there.
He's so close.
Ben? Benny? Come on.
Answer me.
Benny? Ben? Ben? Who's that ? Hi, Benny.

The phone died.
Where am I going? Towards Marcus Garvey Park where we found him.
Yeah, Emma, this is Officer Finney.
Last week we brought in a kid named Ben Reynolds.
He fell off the monkey bars? Right, the sprained arm.
Yeah, I need his address.
Just call him back.
His number is restricted.
Uh-huh.
All right, thanks a lot, Emma.
What if this kid's playing a joke, man? I hope for his sake he is.
Why are you hiding from Daddy? You hurt Mommy.
I wouldn't do that.
Guess what? We're finally going to have a home together.
What about Mommy? Mommy said it's okay.
She's hurt! I said I wouldn't hurt Mommy.
But the blood-- you have Aw, baby, did you wet yourself? Come on.
I'll get you something to change into.
Let's go! Put these on.
I don't want to.
Well, you can't go around wet like that.
We have a big day ahead of us.
Mommy gave me that for an emergency.
There's never an emergency when Daddy's here.
Here.
Everything is going to be fine.
See how good you look? Come on.
What's the number? Come on.
Let's go.

135 Lexington, Apartment 407.
We have a female stabbed.
I can't find the kid.
There's blood everywhere back there.
Hold still, ma'am.
Hold still, please.
I-I-I'm sorry for scaring you, Benny, but she left me no choice at all.
This is the only way.
This is the only way.
Where's your son, Mrs.
Reynolds? She was stabbed, Carlos.
We got it.
We got it.
Here, grab the board.
Okay, we got penetrating trauma to her back, with foamy bubbles-- we got a punctured lung involved.
Hey, where's your son? Scoop and run.
Get her vitals in the bus.
Where's your son? She can't hear you right now, and if she dies,she'll never be able to tell you.
??? Let's go.
stab wounds times two to the mid-back.
Let's get her into Trauma One.
Good airway, but she has an apparent right punctured lung, hypotensive.
BP: 60 palp; tachy at 118; resps: 24.
Page Surgery.
Set up a central line and load O-neg on the rapid infuser.
Got her.
One, two, three.
I need you to move back, Officer.
- Husband! - Your husband? Your husband did this? I said move out of my way! Your husband? I said move out of my way! - I need this information.
- Move! So she told you that the husband did this? I think so.
I'm not sure.
She did or she didn't? She said, "husband," but I don't know if she just wanted him notified or if he did it.
How do you know the kid? Brought him here last week.
Why? Fell off the monkey bars in Marcus Garvey Park.
And you gave him your card? Yeah.
Why? What for? What do you mean? I mean, did you think that his injuries were more than just a playground accident? No.
So you just gave him your card for the hell of it? Look, he was scared.
It made him feel better.
A doctor checked him out.
If he would have found anything else wrong with him, he would have reported it.
If you thought there was something wrong, you should have reported it.
And I would have.
Look, this isn't going to find the kid right now.
Next time I'm working on a patient, stay out of my way, okay? I was trying to get information about a missing kid, all right? And I was trying to keep that woman alive.
How's she doing? Stabilized.
We need to talk to her.
She's not conscious.
She's been prepped for surgery.
Well, when will she be able to talk to us? Sorry.
I have no idea.
Look, I'm going to head back to the scene and, uh, see how the canvas is going.
I'll talk to the neighbors.
Maybe they can tell us who the husband is.
Excuse me.
Uh, yeah, my-my building manager told me my wife was brought in here, uh, in an ambulance.
What's her name? Evelyn.
Evelyn Reynolds.
Excuse me, sir? I'm Detective Yokas.
Are you Ben's father? Yeah, I-I recently adopted him.
Where is he? Well, we were hoping that you could tell us.
I? Well, why? What's going on? Where were you this afternoon? At my office.
Wh-What's happened? Your wife was stabbed.
Oh, my God.
Oh Oh, that son of a bitch.
That son of a bitch Harris did this.
Who's Harris? Her crazy ex-husband.
Yeah, well, we have a restraining order against him.
Did he take Ben? Someone did.
I knew this was going to happen.
I told her.
I told her he was crazy.
You have any idea where Harris could be? He has a sister.
She lives up on 152nd.
I, uh, I have her in my PDA.
That's where we send all the legal papers.
Not that he ever showed up in court.
What is this place? I wanted you to show you where I work.
Mommy said you don't have a job anymore.
Your Mommy lies to you.
She lies all the time.
Here.
Stand back.
This place doesn't look open.
Wait till you see how cool it looks on the inside.
We should go check on Mommy.
No, Mommy's fine.
She needs a doctor.
This stupid door! The lock on this thing is always stuck.
I told maintenance about it, but they're lazy.
We shouldn't go in there.
I told you.
This is where I work, Ben.
You're with me.
Yokas is right.
You know when Ben asked me if he could call me, I should have known something was up.
That's easy to say in hindsight.
Yeah, I'm too worried about my old man and this kid's reaching out.
All right, you guys want to take the back? In case he's inside.
Right.
Who is it? NYPD.
Detective Yokas.
I'm looking for a Harris Perry.
He's not in.
- Are you his sister? - Yeah.
You know where he is? I don't know.
You mind if I come in and take a look around? No, I told you he's not here.
Or I can come back with a search warrant.
We can tear your place apart.
It's up to you.
Sure.
When was the last time you saw your brother? What did he do, kite more checks? When? It's been a while.
What's a while? You know, I'm not responsible for anything he stole.
Where does he work, ma'am? He hasn't worked since his company went out of business.
Is this him? Yeah.
That was his printing press.
You know how many times I told him, I mean, who needs a printers anymore with computers? How much did he steal this time? Your brother may have kidnapped his son and stabbed his ex-wife.
Evelyn? My brother would never do that.
Well, then, we should be able to wrap this up pretty quickly.
He's sick, but he would never hurt anyone.
What do you mean, "sick"? He's on medication.
Yeah, but he's under control.
Does he have a car? He would never hurt Ben.
Does he have a car? I gave him my car this morning.
All right, what's the license number? He wouldn't hurt Ben.
I know he wouldn't.
Well, let's hope you're right.
All right, that'd be great.
Thanks.
They're going to put an Amber Alert out for the Chevy.
What do we do? Just sit and wait.
That's it? There's nothing we can do.
Come on.
There has to be something.
Like what? We can show Ben's picture around.
To who, Brendan? Look for that Chevy.
Ah, it's a needle in a haystack.
He called me, Davis.
He asked me to help him.
I'm not just going back in service and wait.
Sit.
Come on.
I got your favorite ones.
It's cold.
The world is cold.
Why did you hurt her? You know this is where we met? She was bleeding.
We shouldn't have left her.
I was working my press, and she started in the office.
Oh, God, she was so pretty.
She had on a yellow sweater.
When I saw her I just knew.
Remember that, Benny.
When you see the one, the girl you know you are supposed to be with f forever, you know it.
We, uh, we used to after work, go out to the car and laugh and and sing.
Does she still sing, Benny? She's hurt, Dad.
I'll bet she doesn't.
They got an Amber Alert out statewide.
They ought to make it in Jersey, too.
We already did it.
Look at you.
Just like the real police, huh? Harris Perry.
These belong to our bad guy.
What is it? Nefazodone? Never heard of that.
What's it for? I don't know.
Let's find out.
You're not going to eat anything? I'm not hungry.
I bet you are for one of these.
I got them for you, as a surprise.
Here just the way you like them.
Can we go someplace else? Later, we'll play games.
I want to go.
I'm sorry, Ben.
We're staying here.
Ben! Ben! Ben.
Come on now.
I don't like this.
Don't don't make me mad.
Now is not the time to play the games.
Ben? Ben? Ben? Ben! Ben.
Ben! Ben! Ben! You're pissing me off! Ben! Ben! Ben! Ben! Where would this guy be? He's probably pretty desperate.
My guess would be hit the road, kept going.
Son of a bitch.
If this guy really loves his son, maybe he won't hurt him.
You didn't hear Ben.
He was so afraid, Davis.
Ben? Brendan? Where are you, buddy? He's going to kill me.
Are you with your father? Yes.
Please.
Yeah, this is 5-5 David.
We need a trace on a cell phone number.
It's 555 0122.
Where is he now? I don't know.
It's dark.
It's an old closed-up building.
Hurry.
What do you mean it's going to take an hour? No, we need it right now.
Do you know what street you're on? No.
Thank you.
What do you see in the room, Ben? There are colors on the walls.
What kind of colors? Just colors.
Is there, uh, is there anyone else in the room? No.
We broke a door.
It's an old building.
Hurry.
Is there, uh, any kind of Equipment? equipment in the room? Any? There's something.
It says "A-B-D I" I can't read the rest.
Ben? He's coming.
Ben? Is that you? They're they're in some kind of abandoned building somewhere.
There's equipment that says Abdi-something.
"Abdi"? Like, A-B-D-I.
A-B-D-I.
Yeah, Yokas, we got him back on the phone again.
Ben? Ben? Who who the hell is this? - Is this Harris? - Who are you? Brendan-- a friend of your son's.
Hold on, Faith.
Finney's got the dad on the phone.
All right, don't let Finney hang up.
Hey, they're on the phone with him now.
Have you ever heard of a machine called "Abdi"-something? Sounds like a workout thing.
I just want to make sure Ben's safe.
He's fine.
He's with his father.
Where are you guys? That's none of your business.
What is that, a radio? Look, Harris, your ex-wife is going to be all right.
She's my wife.
All right, all right, okay, but you need to come in now and let us make sure that Ben is all right.
What-what are you, Social Services or something? You still want to take him from me? No.
I'm a cop, and I just want to make sure Ben's safe.
You're a cop? You called the police on me? He's my friend.
Harris, talk to me.
You can never keep us apart! Do you hear me? Never! Harris? Harris.
Why did you call the police? That hurts.
What did you tell them? I only wanted him to help Mom.
There's no companies in Manhattan that start with A-B-D-I.
Zip in Brooklyn.
Hey, Gordon, you guys have a Queens, uh, phone book? We don't have one up here.
Yeah.
Thanks.
Not a lot of abandoned factories on Staten Island.
I don't know how much time we have.
I mean, those meds were for some serious psychotics, and he's not on them.
This is all we got on the pedigrees for the canvas.
Lot of "nobody homes.
" Desk said you needed this.
What, did you finally eat up all the pizza in Manhattan? Ha-ha.
We got a call from Finney.
He talked to that kid again.
They're in some abandoned warehouse.
He's talking about some machinewith a "A-B-D-I" on it.
How 'bout A.
B.
Dick? What do you mean? They make printing presses.
I worked for a printer in high school.
The sister She said that he hasn't worked since his company went out of business.
The printing company.
You ruined it! We were going to be happy.
No, I didn't.
Yes, you did! This is all your fault! That's not true.
If you would've just trusted me, you wouldn't have hid under that sink, and I wouldn't have had to hurt your mommy.
This is your fault! Well, we're not too far.
We'll see you there.
He used to work for Hansen Brothers Printing at 138 Front Street.
It's shut down now.
Let's go.
Help me clean this up! You're hurting me.
Do you know how mad my bosses are going to be when they see this mess? Ow Help me.
All right.
I swear to God, Ben if you run away again, I'm going to go to your mother's house and I'm going to cut her throat.
And her bastard husband, too.
All right, Yokas, we got a green Chevy here.
We're two minutes away.
We have backup units with us.
Don't go in until we get there.
All right.
- She wants us to wait.
- Yeah, no way.
Finney! Police! Harris, it's the police.
You check it out over there.
Harris! Harris! We just want to make sure Ben's okay, man.
You check behind those crates over there? Yeah.
All right.
This is all clear.
Let's go check the basement.
Come on, Harris.
Hurting Ben's not the answer.
Let's go.
We know you love your son, Harris.
That's why you did what you did.
Help me! Ben! We're in pursuit of a green Chevy in regard to the Amber Alert.
I thought they were supposed to wait until we got there.
I guess not.
Watch it.
How are we on your side, your side? We're clear.
We're clear.
Go.
Oh, come on.
Move! Oh, no.
No, no, no, no! No! Come on.
It's over.
Let Ben out of the car.
He's my son! We can talk about that when you let him go.
You leave us alone! Come on.
Give us Ben.
You get away from us! Listen, try to understand.
You're off your medication right now, okay? That's why everything seems so hopeless.
She took everything from me.
Everything.
It's not my fault the plant closed.
I tried to get another job, and I couldn't.
Does that mean I'm supposed to lose everything? My house? My wife? My son? You can still see your son, Harris.
You didn't lose him.
She let that son of a bitch adopt him.
He's his father now.
No, he's not.
Wh Wh What? You're my dad.
I messed everything up, Benny.
I'm sorry.
Go.
Don't! It's 5-5 David to Central.
We have the child.
He's safe.
We need a bus on a rush to this location.
The perp just cut his throat.
We got a 30-year-old male with a self-inflicted slas wound across his throat.
He crashed in the bus.
We got two liters of saline on board, bolus.
Okay, get him into Trauma One.
Notify Surgery.
I need four units O-neg on the rapid infuser.
I can't feel a pulse.
All right, let's get him over on my count.
Ready? One, two, three.
He severed his left carotid.
I need some clamps.
We got v-fib! Ben Daddy! Don't go in there.
- Daddy! - Get that kid out of here.
- Daddy! - Charge to 200.
Daddy! Officer, please.
He's holding the gurney.
Daddy! - Get him out of here.
- You got to leave.
Clear! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Clear! - Come on.
Let's go see your mom.
- Charge to 300.
Everyone clear! My mom? Yeah.
She's upstairs with her husband.
She's not dead? No, buddy, she's going to be all right.
Come on.
Everyone clear! Poor kid.
Doubt his father's going to make it.
He's better off without him.
Don't say that.
It's true.
Stop it, all right? Stop what? You've been nasty all day.
What, you think this guy's candidate for Father of the Year? You know what I'm talking about.
Why would she leave like that? I don't know, Carlos.
She said she loved me.
Then I'm sure she does.
You don't just leave when you love someone.
Sometimes you do.
What does that mean? I don't know.
I don't know.
These things-- relationships-- they're all complicated.
I have no idea how they work myself.
All I know for sure is you have no idea what she's really feeling until you talk to her again.
All right, and how am I supposed to do that, Grace? Be patient until she comes back.
And stop bitching at me.
Thought you were tough.
Give me blood and guts all day.
Love? Pass.
Oh, hey, buddy.
Hey, I know she looks bad, but the doctor said she's going to be fine.
For sure? Yeah, for sure.
Excuse me, I was told her husband was going to be in here.
He had some paperwork to do at Admitting.
He should be back soon.
Will you wait with me? Oh, yeah.
You want to go closer? Can I? I think she'd like that.
She'll know? Yeah.
Moms always do.
Come on.
Why did he do that? Well, sometimes people are sick and they can't always control what they do.
He was looking for me.
If I wasn't hiding, maybe she wouldn't have got hurt.
Look, I want you to know this What you did today was the bravest thing I've ever seen.
You didn't do anything wrong, you understand me? Can I tell you something? Yeah, anything.
I still love my daddy.
Of course you do.
We want 'em to be perfect, right? But they're not.
They're just people.
Did yours ever do anything bad? What? Your dad.
Yeah, he did.
And you still love him? Yeah, I do.
Hey.
Good work today.
Uh, Ty, I really need to talk to you.
Good night.
It's important.
What, you're FBI now? No.
I'm not a detective anymore.
Swersky said I could ride with Sullivan and get my shield the right way.
Well, if you took a demotion for me, that's a pay cut for nothing.
I did it out of respect for this.
All right.
I know you're mad at me, but come on.
We got to put this behind us.
We can't fix this.
Okay? You need to get that through your head.
I appreciate what you did, taking down C.
T.
Finney.
Doesn't change things.
I miss you.
Well, you should've thought about that before you stabbed me in the back.
I wasn't after you.
Then how'd he find out about that ticket, then? Ty, come on You should've told me who you were, Sasha.
But you wouldn't have stayed with me.
How do you know that? How do you know that? You have no idea what I would've done for you.
But can we just can we just go someplace and just have a conversation about it? I'm done talking to you.
Please You know, the way you boo-hoo isn't always bad.
Is that right? Yeah.
The way you always put the patient first kind of reminds me of someone.
Who's that? You didn't know him.
She'll come back, Carlos.
I hope so.
Hey.
You really hate love? Good night.
Right.
Hey.
Hey.
Is Grace still around? Yeah.
Good luck.
I've never been up here before.
Nothing special.
Uh, is everything all right? Yeah.
I just, uh I never said thank you for your coming to my father's wake.
Yes, you did.
Well, you know how we've been playing this by ear, having a meal every so often, hanging out? Yeah.
Well, what would you think about I don't know you know, making this a little more permanent? Permanent? Look, I don't mean married or nothing-- just, you know kind of kind of like you know, boyfriend and girlfriend? Boyfriend and girlfriend.
Hey, look, I know I got a lot of things going on right now.
My family's messed up.
I don't know how my partner and I are.
But one thing I know for sure is I'm not going to meet anybody like you again.
And I don't want to mess this up.
Kiss him, stupid! Go home, Carlos.
Amateur.
So kiss him, stupid.
