Master 1480 - Tape 1 TLS three white male police detectives (classic crime-busting dicks wearings suits and ties, fedoras) clammoring out of shiny black sedan parked in dark alleyway (more like a studio lot or large sound stage); brick buildings line alley; like a scene from a cheap film noir. (5-3) TLS police car (squad car) parked in middle of tree-ridden rural dirt road during late afternoon, headlights beaming; police car rolls toward camera cautiously; white male cop on passenger side hops out to assist white man lying on ground beside black sedan with white-wall tires; felled man appears to have been victim of a gang beating. Crimes and misdemeanors. Like an excerpt from a cheap forgotten film noir. (5-2)
