#Capt. Stonetree

[foreverknightalways]

At Nick's loft, Nick awakens as his phone rings and his answering machine picks up. Nick's voice is heard saying, Yeah, Nick Knight. I'm either in bed or incommunicado, so if you want to leave your name and number, go ahead. The answering machine beeps then Schanke says, Knight? Knight? Hey, Nick, rise and shine. Stonetree's sweating blood. Duty calls. I know you're much too cool to come out and play out in the daytime. Nick is listening to the message and stretches with a smile on face.

Nick says, Natalie, I think what happened last night does more to clear Hiatt than to implicate him. Natalie says, But he doesn't even have an alibi. Nick answers, Nor does Barbara Norton. I mean, come on. What kind of idiot would Hiatt have to be to make an attempt on the life of the very person who just implied in front of three television cameras that he was under investigation? You're not thinking clearly. Natalie says, I'm only trying to be logical about this.

Back at the 27th precinct, Capt. Stonetree is talking to a reporter on the phone, No, she does not want to speak to the press. No, I'm not going to substantiate anything. Stonetree hangs up the phone. Natalie says, It's Hiatt. Now I know it's Hiatt, and you know what else? I should talk to the press. Stonetree says, I think you've done enough talking to the press.

At the 27th precinct, Schanke says, Rock and roll. Stonetree asks, What, this is funny to you? Schanke says, Come on, Captain. This is what it's all about. Shake it up, let it burn. Stonetree asks, Even if it means back-to-back double shifts? Schanke asks, Wait, back-to-back shifts? Stonetree says, Doubles. Look at this place. There's nobody around.

Stonetree interrupt, All right, all right, all right, all right, all right, all right. Didn't this car leave an impression on you, Nick? I mean, didn't you see who was driving? Nick answers, It happened too quickly. Stonetree says, This whole thing has gone from bad to worse.

Stonetree says, I'm bringing in the night shift early. Schanke asks, Don't you think you're overreacting a little bit? Stonetree asks, Have you seen this video? Schanke answers, Well, actually, no, I haven't. I don't get the chance to watch the rock channel much anymore. It's not that I don't like rock-- I do, I like it-- but the fact is I'm busy. You know, Myra, the kid...

Back in the present, Nick comes back from his memories. Stonetree asks, Are you listening, Knight? Nick asks, I'm sorry, what? Stonetree says, The kid, Lisa Cooper, she's your baby till the father comes home. Nick says, Oh, wait a second. I mean, what about the relatives? Stonetree answers, None in town.

Nick says, You know, Nat, with all the changes over the years that I've seen for women, for some, it seems nothing's changed. Natalie answers, For some of us, it has. For millions of us. Nick says, And I have the pleasure and pain of knowing one of you. Natalie says, Lucky you. Nick gives Natalie a quick kiss on the lips. Natalie looks into her cup in disbelief.

While driving Stonetree's car, Lynn pulls over as another car behind her honks at her for being in the way. Lynn is crying hysterically and inconsolable.

Nick says, Aw, come on, Captain. I mean, Reeves was covering the election. It's going to be tough to keep a lid on it. Capt. Stonetree says, It's called, "Spin Control," Detective. Somebody pokes a microphone in your face, and they will, you offer no comment. Schanke adds, According to the hotel phone logs, he'd already been talking to the press. Stonetree asks, What press? Nick answers, Frank Titus, publisher of the National Intruder. Stonetree asks, National Intruder? No comment.

Mona says, He wanted it to be a surprise or something. I don't know much about politics. It...It kind of confuses me, but... it sure was Gilbert's passion.

Fiori says, But then there's the preliminary hearing. Stonetree says, Well, that'll be three weeks at least... if at all. Tony continues to drink uneasy at the situation. Stonetree seems pleased with himself.

[foreverknightalways]

Natalie asks, You'll miss him, won't you? When's the trial? Stonetree answers, Three weeks. But it's not him I'm worried about. This whole thing has really taken its toll on Lynn. Nick asks, How's she doing? Stonetree answers, She's a mess. She's trying to work it out with a therapist. I don't know how Tony could make her live like that. Natalie says, Well, with any luck, she'll divorce him and start her own life.

Capt. Stonetree tells Schanke and Nick, I don't want you two to go anywhere till I get back. Understand? Schanke answers, Yes, sir. Nick looks confused as Capt. Stonetree walks away. Schanke gets up and mimes being a traffic cop. Natalie has a worried look on her face.

Stonetree says, Schanke brought the babysitter in, Mrs. Demarco. Talk to her. And keep the kid under wraps.
