Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:10,908 --> 00:00:13,136
Poncherello!
2
00:00:13,408 --> 00:00:15,465
How did you know I was here?
3
00:00:16,140 --> 00:00:17,505
You're on limited duty...
4
00:00:17,674 --> 00:00:21,504
and I'm gonna revoke that if you
don't stop chasing the clerks around.
5
00:00:21,673 --> 00:00:24,298
Can I help it if they're
delighted to see me back?
6
00:00:25,672 --> 00:00:26,933
Now, listen.
7
00:00:27,305 --> 00:00:29,527
We have a new watch
commander coming in,
8
00:00:29,551 --> 00:00:32,135
Lieutenant Bates, and
first impressions count.
9
00:00:32,303 --> 00:00:38,327
So I want you to summon up your dignity
and take the front desk for a while.
10
00:00:38,502 --> 00:00:40,128
The front desk?
Oh, come on, sarge.
11
00:00:40,301 --> 00:00:44,132
It's the first thing he sees
when he walks in the building.
12
00:00:44,300 --> 00:00:47,062
I hate checking tail lights
and answering silly phone calls.
13
00:00:47,233 --> 00:00:48,494
Can't he come in the back?
14
00:00:49,033 --> 00:00:52,897
All right, I need somebody to clean
the shotguns and wash motorcycles.
15
00:00:53,065 --> 00:00:54,531
I'll take the front desk, sarge.
16
00:00:54,698 --> 00:00:58,289
All right. And remember,
it was your choice.
17
00:00:58,464 --> 00:01:03,453
Seems to me that, uh, sitting beside
someone in a car would be limited duty.
18
00:01:04,361 --> 00:01:06,487
- Right.
- They need me on the streets.
19
00:01:06,662 --> 00:01:07,684
Mm-hm.
20
00:01:07,861 --> 00:01:10,692
My intuition, my
keen observation.
21
00:01:10,860 --> 00:01:13,918
My instinct for
things going wrong.
22
00:01:14,093 --> 00:01:15,583
Mm.
23
00:01:38,854 --> 00:01:41,184
Mel, the fuzz.
24
00:01:54,283 --> 00:01:57,250
Oh, man, there's another
one. It's a stakeout.
25
00:01:57,415 --> 00:02:00,439
Ah, stakeout, my elbow. They
wouldn't be out in plain sight.
26
00:02:02,381 --> 00:02:04,541
What's the trouble, officer?
27
00:02:04,714 --> 00:02:08,442
Ah, I got a loose tail light
bracket. You have a little wrench?
28
00:02:08,613 --> 00:02:09,943
They don't want us.
29
00:02:10,113 --> 00:02:11,807
Well, what are you going to do?
30
00:02:11,978 --> 00:02:14,207
Well, sitting here
looks suspicious.
31
00:02:14,378 --> 00:02:16,004
Hauling a trailer looks normal.
32
00:02:16,178 --> 00:02:18,236
So I'm gonna haul a trailer.
33
00:02:43,871 --> 00:02:47,031
Oh, man, I'm going
to have an ulcer.
34
00:02:47,204 --> 00:02:51,659
That trailer's loaded with $80,000 worth
of nice new Japanese television sets.
35
00:02:51,836 --> 00:02:55,098
- You wanna bid that sayonara?
- No.
36
00:02:55,269 --> 00:02:57,791
Then get out and hook us up.
37
00:03:06,032 --> 00:03:07,396
There we go.
38
00:03:07,565 --> 00:03:09,156
That ought to do
it, Bar. Thanks.
39
00:03:09,331 --> 00:03:12,354
Hey, Ponch and I had reservations
Sunday. Wanna take his place?
40
00:03:12,531 --> 00:03:14,122
Uh, what? Where you going?
41
00:03:14,297 --> 00:03:17,661
Holly Grove Skydiving Center for
freefalling. Ponch was gonna start lessons.
42
00:03:17,829 --> 00:03:20,023
Thanks, but skydiving
doesn't interest me.
43
00:03:20,196 --> 00:03:22,752
Hey, it feels great, Jon,
floating free through the air.
44
00:03:22,928 --> 00:03:25,215
Yeah, well, let me tell
you, I've been thrown
45
00:03:25,239 --> 00:03:27,293
off my horse enough
without a parachute.
46
00:03:27,460 --> 00:03:28,779
- Thanks, anyway.
- See you later.
47
00:03:28,860 --> 00:03:30,326
Okay.
48
00:03:58,019 --> 00:04:00,009
Go, Mel. Go.
49
00:04:00,186 --> 00:04:02,152
Hey, just be cool, man.
50
00:04:08,850 --> 00:04:11,339
Ha! Banzai. Ha-ha!
51
00:06:15,719 --> 00:06:17,481
We don't have...
52
00:06:19,585 --> 00:06:21,783
that information, sir, but
we'll be glad to help you.
53
00:06:21,951 --> 00:06:24,508
Um, if you hold just
a moment, please.
54
00:06:24,684 --> 00:06:26,150
Thank you.
55
00:06:28,083 --> 00:06:29,845
Number for the
Weather Bureau, please.
56
00:06:30,016 --> 00:06:31,335
- Lieutenant Bates?
- Uh-huh.
57
00:06:31,449 --> 00:06:32,813
Officer Poncherello, sir.
58
00:06:32,982 --> 00:06:35,709
And the, uh, Rent-A-Crooks
have struck again.
59
00:06:35,881 --> 00:06:37,313
Same MO.
60
00:06:37,481 --> 00:06:40,572
They rent a tractor, drive
to a busy loading area...
61
00:06:40,747 --> 00:06:42,975
and hitch up to
a loaded trailer...
62
00:06:43,146 --> 00:06:47,078
and, uh, as two of you
crime-fighters can testify...
63
00:06:47,245 --> 00:06:50,006
simply drive away
looking normal.
64
00:06:50,177 --> 00:06:52,803
Since these trucks are
always found abandoned...
65
00:06:52,977 --> 00:06:55,807
it's assumed that these Rent
A-Crooks transfer their loot.
66
00:06:55,976 --> 00:07:00,840
So watch out for rented
trailers and large vans.
67
00:07:01,009 --> 00:07:03,407
Let's get this pair.
68
00:07:05,174 --> 00:07:08,537
Okay, as you all know, we
have a new watch commander.
69
00:07:09,073 --> 00:07:12,403
It gives me pleasure to
introduce him to you at this time.
70
00:07:12,572 --> 00:07:15,164
Lieutenant Harold A. Bates.
71
00:07:18,571 --> 00:07:20,037
Lieutenant.
72
00:07:20,637 --> 00:07:22,627
Thank you, sergeant.
73
00:07:22,803 --> 00:07:26,326
Last assignment was in
public relations in Sacramento.
74
00:07:28,002 --> 00:07:31,127
Let me just say that
my last assignment...
75
00:07:31,301 --> 00:07:33,858
was in the public relations
office in Sacramento.
76
00:07:35,533 --> 00:07:37,159
I know your opinion of PR men.
77
00:07:37,333 --> 00:07:40,346
Unreal characters who
put all their emphasis
78
00:07:40,370 --> 00:07:42,993
on image and none
on real police work.
79
00:07:43,164 --> 00:07:45,358
Now, there is one
indisputable fact.
80
00:07:45,530 --> 00:07:49,156
And to Mr. Average Citizen out
there, it's not enough to be a good cop...
81
00:07:49,330 --> 00:07:51,694
you have to look
like a good cop.
82
00:07:56,161 --> 00:07:59,753
Now that I've got that off my chest,
I'd just like to say that I'm honored...
83
00:07:59,927 --> 00:08:02,834
to be here with such a
great bunch of people
84
00:08:02,858 --> 00:08:05,655
at the highest-rated
station in the state.
85
00:08:05,826 --> 00:08:10,724
However, there's always
room for improvement.
86
00:08:10,891 --> 00:08:13,050
Item: coming in this morning...
87
00:08:13,224 --> 00:08:17,815
I noticed that the motorcycles
were parked in a kind of letter S.
88
00:08:17,990 --> 00:08:20,820
S for "sloppy."
89
00:08:20,989 --> 00:08:23,285
Not that I'm gonna draw
a plumb line out there...
90
00:08:23,455 --> 00:08:26,422
but I do expect a
reasonably neat row.
91
00:08:26,587 --> 00:08:30,610
In fact, one motor was even
sitting there parked front-to-back.
92
00:08:30,786 --> 00:08:33,446
Grossman, lieutenant. He never
knows whether he's coming or going.
93
00:08:38,318 --> 00:08:39,875
Thank you, uh, officer...?
94
00:08:40,051 --> 00:08:41,278
- Baricza.
- Ba...?
95
00:08:41,917 --> 00:08:44,816
- Baricza.
- Baricza.
96
00:08:44,983 --> 00:08:48,972
Your, uh, second shirt button
down is unfastened, Baricza.
97
00:08:52,881 --> 00:08:55,642
I'm afraid I have twenty-twenty
vision. I don't miss much.
98
00:08:55,814 --> 00:08:58,508
Item: your shirt, Poncherello.
99
00:08:59,446 --> 00:09:02,810
I doubt that you bought it from
any of our authorized suppliers.
100
00:09:02,979 --> 00:09:05,571
No, sir. This is from
Manny's Tailor Shop.
101
00:09:05,745 --> 00:09:09,199
They're a few dollars more, but
Manny, uh, body-shapes them.
102
00:09:09,377 --> 00:09:11,207
And I think they
look a little sharper.
103
00:09:11,377 --> 00:09:12,866
Whoo-whoo.
104
00:09:15,642 --> 00:09:17,802
Commendable, Poncherello.
105
00:09:17,975 --> 00:09:20,162
If we all boycott our
authorized suppliers, we'll
106
00:09:20,186 --> 00:09:22,305
lose our discount, which
none of us can afford.
107
00:09:22,474 --> 00:09:24,134
Get some regulation shirts.
108
00:09:24,306 --> 00:09:25,432
Hey, but, lieutenant...
109
00:09:25,607 --> 00:09:29,096
I trust your accident
didn't impair your hearing.
110
00:09:31,571 --> 00:09:32,594
Whew.
111
00:09:33,304 --> 00:09:35,896
Now, a major project.
112
00:09:36,071 --> 00:09:37,094
Fuel consumption.
113
00:09:37,270 --> 00:09:39,990
It seems that we have
some hot dogs here
114
00:09:40,014 --> 00:09:43,032
who are supporting
half the Arabs in Kuwait.
115
00:09:45,802 --> 00:09:48,359
Let's, uh, face it, troops.
116
00:09:48,534 --> 00:09:52,864
We're in an energy crunch, and it's up
to us to set an example for the public.
117
00:09:53,033 --> 00:09:56,692
I want every officer's gas
consumption monitored from now on.
118
00:10:00,065 --> 00:10:03,395
That's all I have. Carry on.
119
00:10:05,730 --> 00:10:07,697
Man, did we draw a brass-nose.
120
00:10:07,862 --> 00:10:11,090
Ah, cool it, Bar. Give
him some time, huh?
121
00:10:16,428 --> 00:10:19,451
Well, what do you think,
sergeant? Did I get through to them?
122
00:10:19,627 --> 00:10:23,491
Oh, uh... Yeah, I imagine so.
123
00:10:23,659 --> 00:10:26,023
You seem to have
some reservations.
124
00:10:26,358 --> 00:10:27,915
Well, uh...
125
00:10:28,891 --> 00:10:33,755
Actually, I don't think Poncherello's
shirts are that much out of line.
126
00:10:33,923 --> 00:10:38,582
Sarge, regulations mean what they
say or they don't mean anything at all.
127
00:10:40,188 --> 00:10:41,314
All right, lieutenant.
128
00:10:42,354 --> 00:10:46,014
And, uh, you don't have
to call me lieutenant.
129
00:10:46,187 --> 00:10:48,050
Certainly not in private.
130
00:10:48,219 --> 00:10:49,481
My name's Harold.
131
00:10:49,986 --> 00:10:53,077
Oh, right. Uh, Harold.
132
00:10:53,985 --> 00:10:55,451
Harold.
133
00:11:00,584 --> 00:11:04,277
Ponch, you just crashed a motorcycle
and you weren't 3 feet off the ground.
134
00:11:04,449 --> 00:11:06,109
How can you think of skydiving?
135
00:11:06,282 --> 00:11:09,112
I'm not thinking about it for
me, I'm thinking about it for you.
136
00:11:09,281 --> 00:11:13,236
You sure you weren't thinking about selling
me those lessons you bought in advance?
137
00:11:13,414 --> 00:11:14,505
It's only 80 bucks.
138
00:11:14,680 --> 00:11:18,476
Which you could use to pay for the shirts
you already bought that you can't wear.
139
00:11:18,645 --> 00:11:21,339
Never entered my head. You'd
love it. You got me into hang-gliding.
140
00:11:21,512 --> 00:11:23,001
I figured I'd get
you into skydiving.
141
00:11:23,178 --> 00:11:26,042
Ah, yeah, well, uh, what if
the parachute doesn't open?
142
00:11:26,210 --> 00:11:27,335
Oh, come on, Jon.
143
00:11:27,510 --> 00:11:30,999
Ask Baricza. Parachute
failures are one in a million.
144
00:11:31,176 --> 00:11:35,335
Hm. I'll tell you what, Poncho.
I'll put that on your tombstone.
145
00:11:36,875 --> 00:11:40,272
"Here lies Ponch, uh,
one in a million." Heh.
146
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,906
Do me one favor, okay?
Talk to my instructor.
147
00:11:43,073 --> 00:11:44,903
Find out how safe
and simple it is.
148
00:11:45,339 --> 00:11:47,498
Ponch, the simple part
is, I'm just not interested.
149
00:11:47,672 --> 00:11:49,502
Now, come on, let's get to work.
150
00:11:58,570 --> 00:12:00,196
One thing puzzles me.
151
00:12:00,368 --> 00:12:03,732
How did Lieutenant Whiz-Bang rate a
field command with no field experience?
152
00:12:03,901 --> 00:12:06,958
Well, not no field experience,
Grossie. He must've had some.
153
00:12:07,134 --> 00:12:10,896
He should've tried meeting us at the
briefing, instead of delivering a lecture.
154
00:12:11,233 --> 00:12:13,665
Well, better late than never.
155
00:12:30,762 --> 00:12:34,887
What is this? How do you think a
mob scene like this looks to the public?
156
00:12:36,893 --> 00:12:39,416
Crime runs rampant while
cops hold a coffee klatch.
157
00:12:39,593 --> 00:12:41,945
Jon and Grossie were
here first. It's our fault.
158
00:12:41,969 --> 00:12:43,252
We're all 10-7 for lunch.
159
00:12:43,425 --> 00:12:45,103
No congregation of
more than two officers.
160
00:12:45,257 --> 00:12:48,519
You know the regulation.
Eat in different places.
161
00:12:51,557 --> 00:12:54,352
Uh, we're done eating.
You guys go ahead and eat.
162
00:12:58,121 --> 00:13:01,282
I'm surprised at you
two. You're senior officers.
163
00:13:01,453 --> 00:13:03,107
Should've advised
the others to move on.
164
00:13:03,131 --> 00:13:04,849
That would be pulling
rank we don't have.
165
00:13:04,953 --> 00:13:08,442
And never will, if this is any
example of your judgment.
166
00:13:13,651 --> 00:13:17,379
Fanaticism is the father of
persecution. Remember that.
167
00:13:18,950 --> 00:13:23,972
I just can't see a lunch break
violation meriting an official reprimand.
168
00:13:24,148 --> 00:13:27,842
And why include Baker and Grossman?
They were there legitimately, lieutenant.
169
00:13:28,014 --> 00:13:30,981
- Harold.
- Uh, Harold.
170
00:13:31,146 --> 00:13:32,976
Baker and Grossman
are senior men.
171
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:35,339
Senior men should
set good examples.
172
00:13:35,512 --> 00:13:39,137
Oh, come on,
lieute... Uh, Harold.
173
00:13:39,311 --> 00:13:44,039
Look, this isn't the Bounty
and you're not Captain Bligh.
174
00:13:44,210 --> 00:13:47,802
Sarge, a higher authority
held Captain Bligh responsible...
175
00:13:47,975 --> 00:13:49,805
for everything that
took place on his ship.
176
00:13:49,975 --> 00:13:52,873
And you might recall that he
was completely exonerated...
177
00:13:53,041 --> 00:13:54,564
by an admiralty court martial.
178
00:13:54,741 --> 00:14:00,866
Well, you might recall that his crew
abandoned him at sea in an open boat.
179
00:14:07,571 --> 00:14:10,231
You're adding gas to
Lieutenant Bates' tank?
180
00:14:10,670 --> 00:14:12,500
For what reason?
181
00:14:13,036 --> 00:14:15,525
The first report on
fuel conservation...
182
00:14:15,702 --> 00:14:18,725
this will put Lieutenant
Whiz-Bang right at the top.
183
00:14:18,902 --> 00:14:21,993
Oh, he will strut with
pride like a peacock.
184
00:14:22,167 --> 00:14:27,099
However, pride goeth
before a fall, Harlan.
185
00:14:29,432 --> 00:14:31,489
Wait for the payoff.
186
00:14:33,797 --> 00:14:36,787
I have a feeling I
shouldn't participate.
187
00:14:47,561 --> 00:14:48,994
Hey, Jon.
188
00:14:49,427 --> 00:14:50,450
Grossie.
189
00:14:52,393 --> 00:14:55,621
There's two unmarked trucks
with trailers. Let's have a look.
190
00:15:27,485 --> 00:15:31,611
L.A. 15, Mary 3 and 5,
southbound 405 from Waterton.
191
00:15:31,783 --> 00:15:35,079
We've got two unmarked
white Ford trucks, uh...
192
00:15:35,383 --> 00:15:38,871
Hold it. The trucks are pulling
over on their own, 10-23.
193
00:16:01,077 --> 00:16:03,543
- Get the one behind you, Ty.
- Right.
194
00:16:03,976 --> 00:16:06,034
L.A. 15, Mary 3 and 5...
195
00:16:18,339 --> 00:16:22,170
15 Mary 3 or Mary 5,
repeat your transmission.
196
00:16:26,737 --> 00:16:29,828
All units, we have lost
reception from 15 Mary 3 and 5...
197
00:16:30,003 --> 00:16:32,162
- southbound 405 from Waterton.
- Call it in.
198
00:16:32,336 --> 00:16:34,853
- My radio is spaghetti. DISPATCHER:
Units responding, identify.
199
00:16:45,166 --> 00:16:49,064
I think I can come up with a likeness of
the tractor driver. I got a glimpse of him.
200
00:16:49,232 --> 00:16:51,562
The fact that he's black is
all you have on the suspect.
201
00:16:52,030 --> 00:16:55,020
Suspects? I doubt they viewed
them as suspects, sergeant.
202
00:16:55,197 --> 00:16:57,478
If they had, they would've
called for assistance
203
00:16:57,502 --> 00:16:59,856
before the stop was
made. First rule in the book.
204
00:17:00,029 --> 00:17:02,620
Lieutenant, stopping
was their idea, not ours.
205
00:17:02,795 --> 00:17:06,159
And why did you suspect two
men who were so willing to stop?
206
00:17:06,328 --> 00:17:10,055
Two tractor-trailers unmarked? Had to be a
good chance they were the Rent-A-Crooks.
207
00:17:10,227 --> 00:17:11,625
Chance doesn't get it.
208
00:17:11,793 --> 00:17:14,588
These things are
scrutinized in the DA's office.
209
00:17:14,758 --> 00:17:17,849
The Supreme Court has forbidden
the random check of vehicles...
210
00:17:18,024 --> 00:17:20,183
without probable cause.
211
00:17:20,357 --> 00:17:23,755
If you had probable cause, you
should've called for assistance...
212
00:17:23,923 --> 00:17:27,014
- and followed them until it caught up.
- We would have. They stopped.
213
00:17:27,189 --> 00:17:30,586
See, uh, sometimes the bad
guys dictate the action out there.
214
00:17:30,754 --> 00:17:34,278
And it takes two hands to stop a
motor. You can't be holding a microphone.
215
00:17:34,454 --> 00:17:37,011
Then you should've ridden on
past, maintained visual contact...
216
00:17:37,186 --> 00:17:39,119
and waited for some backup.
217
00:17:39,286 --> 00:17:41,809
And let them abandon the
vehicle and escape on foot?
218
00:17:41,985 --> 00:17:43,815
To be caught another day.
219
00:17:43,985 --> 00:17:48,042
As it is, they escaped at the
cost of two $5000 motorcycles.
220
00:17:48,218 --> 00:17:49,877
You consider that justifiable?
221
00:17:50,050 --> 00:17:52,079
That depends on
whether you're out there to
222
00:17:52,103 --> 00:17:54,107
protect motorcycles
or protect the public.
223
00:17:54,282 --> 00:17:56,510
You're supposed to be on a desk.
224
00:17:59,747 --> 00:18:02,009
I consider what you did
a censurable incident...
225
00:18:03,314 --> 00:18:07,041
and I intend to enter it into your
permanent records one way or the other.
226
00:18:07,213 --> 00:18:09,736
- One way or the other?
- If they had probable cause...
227
00:18:09,912 --> 00:18:11,673
their tactics were rotten.
228
00:18:11,845 --> 00:18:14,368
I don't buy the bad
guys forcing the action.
229
00:18:14,544 --> 00:18:18,806
If they did not have probable
cause, they violated civil rights.
230
00:18:18,976 --> 00:18:20,943
Sounds like a
Catch-22 proposition.
231
00:18:21,109 --> 00:18:24,597
Butt out, Frank. Right now.
232
00:18:30,906 --> 00:18:32,930
In all fairness, gentlemen...
233
00:18:33,106 --> 00:18:35,765
I'm permitting you the
choice. Which way is it to be?
234
00:18:36,672 --> 00:18:39,161
Whichever makes
you happy, lieutenant.
235
00:18:47,470 --> 00:18:49,868
Lieutenant, in all fairness...
236
00:18:50,569 --> 00:18:52,797
That's all, sergeant.
237
00:18:54,701 --> 00:18:56,258
Mm.
238
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,557
Yes, ma'am, Department
of Motor Vehicles.
239
00:19:00,732 --> 00:19:02,426
You're welcome.
240
00:19:04,065 --> 00:19:06,497
Hey, Jon, look, I'm sorry, I
tried to help you out, but...
241
00:19:06,665 --> 00:19:09,460
I know, Ponch. I just
came out to say thank you.
242
00:19:12,630 --> 00:19:14,459
Excuse me for a second.
243
00:19:20,894 --> 00:19:22,724
Look, Jon, uh...
244
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,693
the lieutenant is trying
too hard to do too well.
245
00:19:28,859 --> 00:19:30,292
It's not uncommon.
246
00:19:30,459 --> 00:19:34,119
Yeah, it's a little uncommon to have a
permanent black mark in my record book.
247
00:19:34,292 --> 00:19:36,053
And you don't deserve it.
248
00:19:36,224 --> 00:19:39,247
But I think I can make
him change his mind.
249
00:19:45,355 --> 00:19:48,287
Foxy chick you got there, Ponch.
250
00:19:49,621 --> 00:19:51,587
- Did you get her name?
- Oh, Marie?
251
00:19:51,754 --> 00:19:53,015
- Yeah.
- Marie Crossetti.
252
00:19:54,086 --> 00:19:56,109
It's about my skydiving lessons.
253
00:19:56,286 --> 00:20:01,446
She's the instructor I wanted you to meet,
but I know skydiving doesn't interest you.
254
00:20:02,051 --> 00:20:03,381
Oh, yeah, well, it never has...
255
00:20:03,551 --> 00:20:07,211
but, of course, on the
other hand, I've never tried it.
256
00:22:15,585 --> 00:22:17,710
Oh, you did it. You did it.
- Way to go.
257
00:22:17,885 --> 00:22:20,408
- Ha-ha-ha-ha.
- Way to go, Jobina.
258
00:22:20,584 --> 00:22:22,244
- That was great.
- Good girl. Ha-ha.
259
00:22:22,417 --> 00:22:24,043
I learned what I
came out here for.
260
00:22:24,216 --> 00:22:27,478
It looks safe and simple
just like Ponch and Bar said.
261
00:22:27,649 --> 00:22:29,081
Jobina is the perfect witness.
262
00:22:29,249 --> 00:22:32,272
- That was her first flat chute jump.
- Really?
263
00:22:32,448 --> 00:22:35,380
I swear, it's... You're like a
different creature up there.
264
00:22:35,547 --> 00:22:38,173
You're just soaring
like a feather.
265
00:22:38,347 --> 00:22:40,176
Oh, yeah, that's
what Jon always says.
266
00:22:40,346 --> 00:22:41,710
Skydiving is for the birds.
267
00:22:41,879 --> 00:22:43,039
Uh, thanks, Bar.
268
00:22:45,145 --> 00:22:47,373
I only have two
items this morning.
269
00:22:47,544 --> 00:22:50,204
Item one: operation
fuel conservation.
270
00:22:52,476 --> 00:22:56,602
How we doing so far,
sergeant? Just the top achievers.
271
00:22:56,941 --> 00:22:59,965
For motorcycles,
uh, Artie Grossman.
272
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,270
Now, for cruisers, a superior
average, 26 miles per gallon...
273
00:23:08,439 --> 00:23:10,735
Lieutenant Harold A. Bates.
274
00:23:14,037 --> 00:23:16,367
That's a very good
start and we'll do better.
275
00:23:18,604 --> 00:23:22,797
However, let's save our
ovations for real police work.
276
00:23:22,969 --> 00:23:29,094
Item two: I have here an Ident-O-Kit
likeness of one of the Rent-A-Crooks.
277
00:23:29,267 --> 00:23:31,529
There are copies for
all of you at the doors.
278
00:23:31,700 --> 00:23:35,463
We have this ID thanks to
the excellent police work...
279
00:23:35,632 --> 00:23:37,121
despite personal peril...
280
00:23:37,298 --> 00:23:40,458
of Officers Baker and Grossman.
281
00:23:43,697 --> 00:23:45,288
That's all I have.
282
00:23:54,128 --> 00:23:57,617
Okay, pick up your sketches on
the way out and, uh, hit your beats.
283
00:24:05,458 --> 00:24:06,924
What did the ovation mean?
284
00:24:07,091 --> 00:24:10,353
Are you gonna cancel the
censure on, uh, Grossman and Jon?
285
00:24:10,524 --> 00:24:13,354
Uh, not yet, but
these didn't hurt.
286
00:24:13,723 --> 00:24:16,189
Yeah, but when he whispered
to you, he was looking at them.
287
00:24:16,356 --> 00:24:17,982
No, no, at you.
288
00:24:18,155 --> 00:24:21,986
He wanted to know when you're
gonna get your regulation shirts.
289
00:24:27,019 --> 00:24:32,815
Adding 1 gallon is one thing, but
are you sure about taking 1 gallon out?
290
00:24:32,985 --> 00:24:35,076
I mean, maybe 2
gallons might get it.
291
00:24:35,251 --> 00:24:38,047
A gallon a day keeps
the average away.
292
00:24:38,217 --> 00:24:40,683
Lieutenant Whiz-Bang
has had his pride.
293
00:24:40,850 --> 00:24:43,510
Now cometh his fall.
294
00:25:18,841 --> 00:25:23,239
L.A. 15, Mary 3. I'm 10-35
at Clover 44th filling station.
295
00:25:23,406 --> 00:25:26,861
I have an ADW
suspect right here now.
296
00:25:27,039 --> 00:25:29,314
Units in the vicinity
of Clover at 44th...
297
00:25:29,338 --> 00:25:32,099
15 Mary 3 requests
backup at the service station.
298
00:25:32,404 --> 00:25:34,337
ADW suspect there now.
299
00:25:50,733 --> 00:25:54,859
Mary 3 in pursuit of white over green,
two-door sedan, 350-Boy-Adam-Robert...
300
00:25:55,032 --> 00:25:56,896
eastbound Clover 44th.
301
00:26:47,519 --> 00:26:50,110
Take it easy. I didn't
do anything wrong.
302
00:26:52,684 --> 00:26:55,741
Lean against the car. Put
your hand on your head.
303
00:26:55,917 --> 00:26:57,747
Anybody hurt?
304
00:26:58,817 --> 00:27:00,374
Nope.
305
00:27:01,083 --> 00:27:02,743
We're all fine.
306
00:27:03,248 --> 00:27:04,805
Fool could've killed somebody.
307
00:27:05,848 --> 00:27:08,405
Yes, sir, he's a real bad apple.
308
00:27:15,646 --> 00:27:19,134
Remember, I'm not
involved, but here he comes.
309
00:27:45,871 --> 00:27:49,395
After pride goeth,
then cometh shame.
310
00:27:49,570 --> 00:27:51,003
Remember that.
311
00:27:51,170 --> 00:27:52,262
Yeah.
312
00:27:52,437 --> 00:27:56,460
And if you telleth who gave you
the siphon, I telleth who took the gas.
313
00:27:56,636 --> 00:27:58,568
You remember that.
314
00:28:01,901 --> 00:28:03,834
Well, what about tonight? Hm?
315
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,694
Good morning, Lieutenant Bates.
316
00:28:10,832 --> 00:28:12,196
Listen, can I call you back?
317
00:28:12,365 --> 00:28:13,831
Deal.
318
00:28:14,898 --> 00:28:16,955
Deal... Dealer.
Authorized dealer.
319
00:28:17,130 --> 00:28:19,824
I was trying to find
regulation shirts in my size, sir.
320
00:28:19,997 --> 00:28:22,225
- Uh-huh.
- Mm-hm. Excuse me.
321
00:28:22,396 --> 00:28:25,658
Now, you have a
defective brake light.
322
00:28:25,828 --> 00:28:28,818
- You got a ticket for that, right, ma'am?
- Me?
323
00:28:32,327 --> 00:28:36,157
Oh, right, uh, you're headlights
and you're brake lights.
324
00:28:36,326 --> 00:28:38,883
For you, Ponch. A
nurse named Debbie.
325
00:28:43,058 --> 00:28:44,718
Will you excuse me?
326
00:28:46,157 --> 00:28:49,055
- Did you guys see this?
- Nice, huh?
327
00:28:49,222 --> 00:28:51,086
- Oh.
- Whoa, lieutenant.
328
00:28:51,256 --> 00:28:52,722
Morning.
329
00:29:06,319 --> 00:29:09,149
- Good morning.
- Oh, good morning.
330
00:29:09,318 --> 00:29:11,648
Oh, a note on that
ADW suspect...
331
00:29:11,817 --> 00:29:13,249
- Melvin Joe Harley.
- Yeah?
332
00:29:13,417 --> 00:29:16,406
Nothing to prove he's one of the
Rent-A-Crooks. He's out on bail.
333
00:29:16,582 --> 00:29:18,446
The city attorney
is gonna file on him.
334
00:29:18,616 --> 00:29:22,104
Well, we've got him for sure on
property damage and flight to avoid.
335
00:29:22,281 --> 00:29:25,304
Right. That was a
good arrest, lieutenant.
336
00:29:26,113 --> 00:29:28,773
You demoting me? I
thought I was Captain Bligh.
337
00:29:28,946 --> 00:29:32,378
Heh. "Not Captain
Bligh" is what I said.
338
00:29:33,712 --> 00:29:35,508
What is my nickname around here?
339
00:29:37,178 --> 00:29:38,200
Uh...
340
00:29:38,377 --> 00:29:41,309
Oh, come on, Joe, all watch
commanders have them.
341
00:29:42,543 --> 00:29:47,271
Well, it used to be
Lieutenant Whiz-Bang. Heh.
342
00:29:47,442 --> 00:29:50,930
- Mm.
- Now it's, uh, Apples.
343
00:29:51,107 --> 00:29:53,767
Harold "A for Apples" Bates.
344
00:29:55,473 --> 00:29:56,996
Hm.
345
00:29:57,206 --> 00:30:00,434
Well, at least I
earned that one.
346
00:30:00,905 --> 00:30:03,599
I didn't expect to be popular.
It doesn't go with the job.
347
00:30:03,771 --> 00:30:07,033
Oh, Harold, that's not true.
348
00:30:07,203 --> 00:30:10,192
Look, uh, try unwinding, huh?
349
00:30:10,369 --> 00:30:13,302
Just a few turns of the screw.
350
00:30:15,035 --> 00:30:19,161
Uh, by the way, where do we get
our uniforms cleaned around here?
351
00:30:19,334 --> 00:30:21,267
Little fruit stain?
352
00:30:21,466 --> 00:30:22,956
Heh-heh.
353
00:30:23,366 --> 00:30:25,026
Reserve Officers banquet.
354
00:30:25,199 --> 00:30:27,791
Yeah. Parnell's.
Couple of blocks east.
355
00:30:30,298 --> 00:30:33,129
- Good morning.
- Good morning, sir.
356
00:30:57,791 --> 00:30:59,555
Lieutenant, Grossman
and I came in early to
357
00:30:59,579 --> 00:31:01,451
finish the reports on
the loss of our motors.
358
00:31:01,623 --> 00:31:04,089
Also, there's a final on
Melvin Harley's arrest.
359
00:31:04,256 --> 00:31:06,848
Yeah, put it in the inbox.
360
00:31:08,888 --> 00:31:11,286
Ah. What do you know about that?
361
00:31:11,621 --> 00:31:14,281
Well, for starters,
uh, it's an apple.
362
00:31:15,054 --> 00:31:16,247
You're quite a sleuth.
363
00:31:17,287 --> 00:31:19,844
Hey, you in the paratroops?
364
00:31:20,020 --> 00:31:21,918
Reserve commission. Why?
365
00:31:22,286 --> 00:31:25,616
Well, uh, a bunch of us are gonna be
skydiving this Sunday. You wanna join us?
366
00:31:26,717 --> 00:31:28,581
What motivates the invitation?
367
00:31:29,150 --> 00:31:30,242
What motivates it?
368
00:31:30,549 --> 00:31:34,243
I let you off on the lunch break
violation, perhaps you can persuade me...
369
00:31:34,416 --> 00:31:39,404
to, uh, do the same with the
censurable incident report.
370
00:31:39,581 --> 00:31:41,104
I'd be naive not to wonder.
371
00:31:41,547 --> 00:31:45,775
And maybe I was naive, lieutenant, to think
that a paratrooper might enjoy skydiving.
372
00:32:04,441 --> 00:32:05,533
Thanks, Harlan.
373
00:32:06,707 --> 00:32:09,333
If you get yourself
hurt sometime...
374
00:32:09,607 --> 00:32:11,596
I'll drive you to work.
375
00:33:11,158 --> 00:33:14,091
Gotta write a
mechanical violation, sir.
376
00:33:22,823 --> 00:33:25,016
And the suspect,
Melvin Joe Harley...
377
00:33:25,189 --> 00:33:27,712
he came up with bail and
he's got a lawyer to pay...
378
00:33:27,887 --> 00:33:29,877
so he must be hard up for bread.
379
00:33:30,054 --> 00:33:32,543
If he's one of the Rent-A-Crooks,
and we're sure he is...
380
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,914
they may be planning
another truck heist.
381
00:33:35,087 --> 00:33:37,053
So watch out for them.
382
00:33:37,685 --> 00:33:39,811
Okay, lieutenant.
383
00:33:43,051 --> 00:33:46,347
My only item this morning will
be operation fuel conservation.
384
00:33:46,516 --> 00:33:47,813
Now, how about it, sarge?
385
00:33:47,983 --> 00:33:50,472
How are we doing? Just the
high and the low achievers.
386
00:33:50,882 --> 00:33:54,007
See how the
mighty shall fall. Heh.
387
00:33:54,182 --> 00:33:57,148
Okay, motor officers
are Grossman on top.
388
00:33:57,314 --> 00:33:59,337
- Hey.
- Proud.
389
00:33:59,513 --> 00:34:01,571
Jensen on the
bottom, but improving.
390
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,137
"Improving," that's the word.
391
00:34:04,312 --> 00:34:05,643
How about patrol cars?
392
00:34:07,179 --> 00:34:12,509
The high man is Barry Baricza, 22.7,
and, um, I'll check these other figures.
393
00:34:12,677 --> 00:34:16,473
- Ah. Hey, there you go. All right.
- Thank you. Thank you.
394
00:34:16,643 --> 00:34:20,200
Low man? No, no, no, let's
have it. We're all in this together.
395
00:34:22,008 --> 00:34:26,702
Yeah, uh, it's 14.2, but, uh,
I'll take this up with you later.
396
00:34:26,873 --> 00:34:30,964
Now, Joe, uh, not that there's
gonna be any firing squad...
397
00:34:31,139 --> 00:34:35,400
but 14.2 is deplorable mileage.
398
00:34:35,571 --> 00:34:39,004
Some hot dog in the group
is, uh, failing to cooperate.
399
00:34:39,171 --> 00:34:42,228
The rest of us have a right to
know who it is. Now, out with it.
400
00:34:42,803 --> 00:34:44,394
Um...
401
00:34:46,735 --> 00:34:48,497
Lieutenant, it's you.
402
00:34:59,699 --> 00:35:04,688
Sergeant, report to
me after the briefing.
403
00:35:13,995 --> 00:35:17,393
Sergeant, your people
may think otherwise...
404
00:35:17,561 --> 00:35:21,493
but I'm aware that CHP
officers are fallible human beings.
405
00:35:21,660 --> 00:35:23,819
Ours is a grinding tough job.
406
00:35:23,993 --> 00:35:28,050
A little fun and games help ease
the tension we all feel every day.
407
00:35:28,226 --> 00:35:30,919
If it amuses them, they can
string my office with apples...
408
00:35:31,091 --> 00:35:33,523
kid me about it till
the cows come home.
409
00:35:33,691 --> 00:35:37,316
Playing cutesy with my
gasoline supply is another matter.
410
00:35:37,489 --> 00:35:40,751
- Lieutenant, are you implying...?
- I don't imply, I say.
411
00:35:40,922 --> 00:35:44,979
I just don't understand your
people's sense of humor.
412
00:35:45,155 --> 00:35:46,212
Why, Harold?
413
00:35:46,387 --> 00:35:49,149
Isn't it covered in the
book of regulations?
414
00:35:49,321 --> 00:35:52,310
And just where do you think we'd
be without regulations, sergeant?
415
00:35:52,486 --> 00:35:53,747
Nowhere.
416
00:35:54,185 --> 00:35:59,049
But they look at the book the
way I do. As a guide, not a Bible.
417
00:35:59,218 --> 00:36:02,378
Which puts you and the
troops on a different wavelength.
418
00:36:02,550 --> 00:36:06,448
Well, since I'm the watch commander here,
suppose the troops get on my wavelength?
419
00:36:06,616 --> 00:36:08,446
Look, Harold...
420
00:36:09,582 --> 00:36:12,447
this is the top-rated
unit in the state.
421
00:36:12,615 --> 00:36:15,604
- You said you were proud to be here.
- I am.
422
00:36:15,781 --> 00:36:18,009
Well, it is not, it
has never been...
423
00:36:18,180 --> 00:36:22,874
and I don't think a Spartan general
could make it be an uptight GI outfit.
424
00:36:23,212 --> 00:36:24,702
I don't intend it that way.
425
00:36:24,878 --> 00:36:28,901
My first priority here is
to run a smooth operation.
426
00:36:29,077 --> 00:36:31,805
Look, lieutenant,
give some priority...
427
00:36:31,976 --> 00:36:35,204
to getting acquainted with the
people that made it the way it is.
428
00:36:35,709 --> 00:36:38,175
You keep calling them
my people. Wrong.
429
00:36:38,342 --> 00:36:41,796
They're yours. Yours
to win and yours to lose.
430
00:36:41,974 --> 00:36:43,668
I'm one of them.
431
00:36:45,106 --> 00:36:47,594
Why am I unable to see
maturity and judgment
432
00:36:47,618 --> 00:36:49,902
in a person who would
drain my gas tank?
433
00:36:50,072 --> 00:36:54,334
And I hope you don't condone that, because
fuel conservation is serious business.
434
00:36:54,504 --> 00:36:58,028
Your gas tank, lieutenant, is a tin
god, and they're punching holes in it.
435
00:36:58,204 --> 00:36:59,898
Sergeant.
436
00:37:05,502 --> 00:37:08,229
Look, I don't condone it.
437
00:37:08,801 --> 00:37:12,426
And, uh, I will
find out who did it.
438
00:37:13,500 --> 00:37:17,159
No, don't bother.
I'll do that myself.
439
00:37:17,865 --> 00:37:21,491
Look, uh, about Poncherello...
440
00:37:21,665 --> 00:37:26,756
first, can we do something
about his using the lobby...
441
00:37:26,930 --> 00:37:28,897
as a social center?
442
00:37:29,062 --> 00:37:34,926
And second, as I said
before, his sense of humor...
443
00:37:35,460 --> 00:37:38,017
That shirt he's
wearing, is that a joke?
444
00:37:38,194 --> 00:37:40,524
I don't know.
445
00:37:41,060 --> 00:37:45,754
I know it doesn't fit
exactly, but it is regulation.
446
00:37:46,559 --> 00:37:47,957
Well, it's awful.
447
00:37:48,125 --> 00:37:50,455
Tell him to get rid of it.
448
00:37:50,924 --> 00:37:51,947
That's all.
449
00:37:52,757 --> 00:37:54,053
Right.
450
00:37:55,156 --> 00:37:57,588
Uh, no. Wait, wait, wait.
451
00:37:57,756 --> 00:38:00,381
Ever since I requested it, uh...
452
00:38:00,555 --> 00:38:05,817
Grossman has been doing a
superior job of parking his motorcycle.
453
00:38:05,986 --> 00:38:10,351
He's even coming in early, in fact,
to make sure that everything is right.
454
00:38:10,519 --> 00:38:12,213
Um, do me a favor.
455
00:38:13,285 --> 00:38:15,911
Give him this for me.
456
00:38:16,084 --> 00:38:17,914
As a small award.
457
00:38:24,782 --> 00:38:26,544
All right, lieutenant.
458
00:38:38,212 --> 00:38:40,179
- I - don't understand this.
459
00:38:40,512 --> 00:38:42,444
I'm not sure I want to either.
460
00:38:42,611 --> 00:38:43,804
Hold it.
461
00:38:52,708 --> 00:38:53,970
I think that's Latin.
462
00:38:54,142 --> 00:38:56,630
Yeah, it is. I learned
it in high school.
463
00:38:57,641 --> 00:38:59,267
It's an old proverb, Grossie.
464
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:03,338
"Beware. All the trouble in the
world began with one apple."
465
00:39:21,835 --> 00:39:23,768
Why don't we just
rent one like always?
466
00:39:23,935 --> 00:39:26,924
Because my picture is posted in
every rental agency in this town.
467
00:39:27,101 --> 00:39:30,999
Ty, with your credit rating, you
couldn't rent a beach umbrella.
468
00:39:31,167 --> 00:39:33,258
Just do like I told you.
469
00:39:47,462 --> 00:39:50,190
Hey, you finished
Red's tractor, huh?
470
00:39:50,428 --> 00:39:52,087
Look, I only got two hands.
471
00:39:52,261 --> 00:39:54,194
Guess he couldn't
wait, come and got it.
472
00:39:54,361 --> 00:39:56,021
He did, he's a jerk.
473
00:39:56,193 --> 00:39:59,126
I told him there was only four
good pumps left in them brakes.
474
00:39:59,293 --> 00:40:01,724
Don't worry, he knows
it, he'll be careful.
475
00:40:01,892 --> 00:40:05,290
Ain't my responsibility.
I told him.
476
00:40:35,050 --> 00:40:38,982
Ought to be about 30 grand
worth of sirloins in that thing.
477
00:40:39,549 --> 00:40:41,539
Do your thing, baby.
478
00:40:50,514 --> 00:40:52,344
You look uncomfortable.
479
00:40:52,513 --> 00:40:55,537
Yeah, yeah, I suppose I am. Heh.
480
00:40:55,712 --> 00:40:57,077
I'm a motor cop.
481
00:40:57,245 --> 00:40:59,973
I hate to be surrounded
by scrap iron and glass.
482
00:41:00,145 --> 00:41:01,441
Well, bear with me.
483
00:41:01,611 --> 00:41:03,873
When I learn the
territory, I'll set you free.
484
00:41:04,277 --> 00:41:07,209
In the meantime, it's a nice chance
for us to get better acquainted.
485
00:41:07,376 --> 00:41:12,274
Yeah, well, you should be
driving with some car cops.
486
00:41:12,442 --> 00:41:13,999
I will.
487
00:41:14,174 --> 00:41:17,868
By the way, I, uh, know who
was futzing with my fuel tank.
488
00:41:19,039 --> 00:41:21,131
You gonna put them on report?
489
00:41:22,405 --> 00:41:25,201
No. I suppose it was a joke.
490
00:41:25,371 --> 00:41:26,861
Not a very good one.
491
00:41:27,037 --> 00:41:30,401
But at least they didn't abandon
me at sea in an open boat.
492
00:41:30,570 --> 00:41:33,446
All units in the vicinity
of I-10 and Western...
493
00:41:33,603 --> 00:41:37,694
Calcutta Packers report a reefer
trailer stolen within the last 10 minutes.
494
00:41:37,869 --> 00:41:39,801
Tractor used was a white Ford.
495
00:41:39,968 --> 00:41:43,731
Trailer taken is white with
no distinguishing markings.
496
00:41:44,833 --> 00:41:45,856
Turn around.
497
00:41:46,033 --> 00:41:47,999
Last seen southbound
on Western...
498
00:41:48,166 --> 00:41:49,860
north of I-10.
499
00:41:50,032 --> 00:41:53,794
Suspects driving the tractor
described as a salt-and-pepper team.
500
00:41:53,965 --> 00:41:56,227
Sounds like our
Rent-A-Crooks. Let's go, Grossie.
501
00:42:07,028 --> 00:42:08,926
Hey, that's a feeder ramp, Mel.
502
00:42:10,261 --> 00:42:11,420
They're coming after us.
503
00:42:26,190 --> 00:42:30,179
Yeah, I guess we're gonna have to
have hamburgers for dinner again after all.
504
00:43:04,948 --> 00:43:06,471
Get them. I'll handle this.
505
00:43:33,373 --> 00:43:37,897
Harold, that was not the time
for a nice regulation U-turn.
506
00:43:38,072 --> 00:43:41,096
That was the time to
slam into a bootlegger 180.
507
00:43:41,271 --> 00:43:45,397
Abuse of state equipment is
a cardinal violation, sergeant.
508
00:44:23,228 --> 00:44:24,592
We got no brakes.
509
00:44:31,992 --> 00:44:33,357
Pushing 80, Harold.
510
00:44:33,525 --> 00:44:35,515
Endangering life and property.
511
00:44:35,692 --> 00:44:37,590
Decision time.
512
00:44:38,224 --> 00:44:39,884
Uh, tell Baker to break it off.
513
00:44:40,057 --> 00:44:44,080
Alert all units up ahead to
stay in contact with the suspect.
514
00:44:45,456 --> 00:44:47,514
L.A. 15 S-4...
515
00:44:47,689 --> 00:44:51,053
- back off. Don't force it.
- No brakes!
516
00:44:51,688 --> 00:44:53,154
Do you copy, Mary 3?
517
00:44:53,321 --> 00:44:56,082
S-4 15, Mary 3,
he has no brakes.
518
00:44:56,253 --> 00:44:58,277
Any bright ideas?
519
00:45:00,052 --> 00:45:02,281
Get up beside him when you can.
520
00:45:02,452 --> 00:45:05,544
There's a fork in the road up
ahead that leads to an uphill grade.
521
00:45:29,878 --> 00:45:31,175
Follow us!
522
00:46:15,301 --> 00:46:19,995
- Put it in gear. Put it in gear!
- I can't. I can't get it in gear!
523
00:46:23,965 --> 00:46:26,329
- Put it in gear!
- Hey, put it in gear!
524
00:46:30,431 --> 00:46:31,489
Hey, lieutenant.
525
00:46:43,061 --> 00:46:44,857
Come on, let's go.
526
00:46:55,458 --> 00:46:58,981
Abuse of state equipment is
a cardinal violation, lieutenant.
527
00:47:00,623 --> 00:47:04,783
If regulations get in the way of real
police work, sarge, something's gotta give.
528
00:47:05,922 --> 00:47:09,150
You, uh, didn't see me
hit any apples, did you?
529
00:47:16,685 --> 00:47:18,084
Harlan!
530
00:47:18,252 --> 00:47:21,185
Put that siphon away. No
more of that, for Pete's sake.
531
00:47:21,352 --> 00:47:24,749
- You trying to get me fired or what?
- I didn't bringeth it for you.
532
00:47:24,917 --> 00:47:26,213
I bringeth it for him.
533
00:47:30,883 --> 00:47:34,838
Grossman, I figure you owe
me 11 gallons. Is that fair?
534
00:47:35,015 --> 00:47:38,004
Eleven? But my tank
doesn't hold that much.
535
00:47:38,181 --> 00:47:40,079
No problem.
536
00:47:40,247 --> 00:47:42,214
Your credit's good.
