Boss. Boss...
Can l talk to you for a minute?
:17:16
l heard you got Rand on this case.
:17:18
He doesn't know the time of day.
:17:21
Don't mess with me.
:17:22
He hasn't left his desk in 12 years.
:17:25
At least he's had 12 years.
:17:28
Anyway, it's a homicide case and it
belongs to Rand. Go to the hospital.
:17:33
- Can l ask around a bit?
- Don't do a thing.
:17:36
You're skating on thin ice as it is.
:17:39
We're talking about a friend of mine!
:17:42
Yes, we are, aren't we?
:17:44
Let's take a close look at that.
:17:46
One, a hoodlum friend.
Two, a professional hit.
:17:50
Three, in a cop's apartment.
:17:52
This whole thing
stinks to high heaven.
:17:55
- Why a professional hit?
- l didn't just walk into this town.
:18:00
Whoever killed your friend
wasn't worried about you.
:18:03
lf they were, you'd be lying
beside him in that meat wagon.
:18:07
Don't do a damn thing.
Stay out of this.
:18:10
l'm owed some vacation time.
l want to take my vacation now.
:18:14
Stay away from this case.
:18:16
l just need a little vacation,
that's all.
:18:23
All right, as soon as you finish
at the hospital, you're on vacation.
:18:27
Thank you.
:18:28
But if you decide
to butt into this case,
:18:31
it'll be the longest vacation
you ever heard of.
