Commercials. I pay no attention.

More establishing shots of beautiful downtown New York, ending at a sign that reads "Shinbone Alley," not to be confused with Tin Pan Alley. Ricky and Sip are there, looking around. Two other cops screech up and leap out. Rick makes fun of their squealing tires ("Stops on a dime, huh?") as Sip tells the two new cops, Mary and Ed, that the assualt case is now a murder. Sip asks, "You got a website on this case?" I think this means an eyewitness. Ricky checks out Mary not-too subtly and she suddenly sticks her fingers in her mouth and whistles REALLY LOUDLY at the bedraggled-looking blonde peeping at them from her fire escape. Sip sticks his finger in his ear and wiggles it around. Ricky rubs his ear and cries. Not really, but he says, "You're lucky nothing shattered." I think he means his eardrums. Mary, super tough, says, "I wouldn't want to get you all stirred up." Ricky starts drooling and goes, "What?" Mary says, "What?" The peeping blonde yells, "What!" They need to talk to her about the assault/murder. She can't right now, yelling "I'm nude!" Woo hoo! But aww, they make her get dressed to go talk to them. Ed mentions that he went to the academy with Nazi-boy and that he's a "good cop." Sip remarks that that's "quite an endorsement." Go Sip!

The peeper is Sara (a speed freak), who looks a little like Gwyneth Paltrow and a bit ike Juliette Lewis did in the Melissa Etheridge video. Scraggly, skinny, knobby knees. Mary plays good cop, promises they won't put her in restraints but that they have to take her in. "I'm cleaning my shower tiles," wheedles Sara the Speed Freak. Sip offers to buy her a brush "of her choice," and waggles his eyebrows at her to show how accomodating he is. Sara perks up, "Oral-B with the rubber tip?" and goes along to the station.

More pounding drums and establishing shots of cop stuff lead Sip, Ricky, Mary, Sara and Ed to the station house. Right as the get through the doors, Neil and Nazi-boy are there. What's Sara doing there? "Someone get her a candy bar," cracks Nazi-boy. Sara murmurs, "I don't want to eat." Ricky says "We're getting her a MARS bar," and he really punches the word Mars. Nazi-boy, all mean, says to Sip, "Didn't we like Jerry? Aren't we on the same team?" Meaning, "Since we're all cops, can't you just overlook the fact that sometimes we beat people down for no reason?" In a word, NO. Sip asks Nazi-boy to move aside so he can do his job, and goes upstairs. Neil gets all worried, Nazi-boy glowers evilly, and Ricky makes some cracks about how Sara is getting in her spaceship and has an "intergalactic travel agent." Just like Sun Ra! Cool.
