Deputy D.A. Joe Maxwell : Jack was investigating some union busting going in a Chinatown sweatshop when he disappeared. They found his body in a dumpster off Pell. I worked on that case for over a year. Took me six months just to find a witness. Finally found this nice old guy, not afraid of anything. Two days later, he was hit by a car in front of his market. Ten o'clock in the morning, street packed with people. No one saw a thing.
Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler : That was just one case, Joe. This one could be different.
Deputy D.A. Joe Maxwell : Great Wall's been around China for 2,000 years, Radcliffe. You're not gonna tear it down overnight.
Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler : No. But I can try to put a hole in it.
