All language subtitles for Police Story Gladiator School 1988

-What's up?
-Hop in.

-RADIO: Six Adam 47, fill
warrant on 491, Adam.

-This is six Adam
47, roger. Kick 'em
loose, they're clean.

-Thank you for your time,
you're free to go.
-I'll tell you

-where you can go to.
-What'd you say?

-Nothin', man.
-Get out of the car.

-What?
-I said get out of
the car. Spread 'em.

-You're giving me a hard time.
I didn't do nothin'.
-Don't move.

-Come on.
-You move, I get
nervous. You're a

-dangerous man. You
threatened my partner.
-No, I didn't say nothin'.

You didn't say
anything threatening?

-No, man.
-No, you were just
being polite to Officer

-Ramirez for his courtesy.
-Yeah, like that, man.

-Man? No, officer.
We are officers.
-Officer.

-No, I think you
said something else,
something private. You

want to find a place
where you and I can talk
in private?

-No, no, that's okay.
-I think maybe what

you might have said was,
"Thank you Officer, for
your courtesy. Have a

-nice day."
-Yeah, yeah, like
that, like goodbye.

Oh, good. I'm glad
we had a chance to talk.
I'm glad you had a chance

to be heard. Thank you,
Officer, for your
courtesy. Have a nice

-day.
-Yeah, thank you
for your courtesy,

Officer. Have a nice day.

I don't believe that.

It'll be a while
before that garbage bad
mouths another cop.

That citizen
could roll into the
nearest station and beef

you. What am I supposed
to say when Internal
Affairs asks me what went

down out here?

-Hey Steve.
-Hey Digby, how's my man?

How many dudes did
you blow away today?

-Six, but I just
started my shift.
-Ha-ha, you one bad

-bull. Hope you're not
around if I mess up.
-Then don't mess

-up.
-Okay. Later Stacy.

-Later, Digby.

Stace, I keep
working with you, I'm going to
get sucked right into one of

your beefs. You got your time
left.

-You can pull the pin. Me,
I'm out of a job.
-Pretty dramatic.

I think...I
think maybe I'll ask the
watch commander for a new

-partner.
-Well, it won't be
a new experience for him.

Come on, we're behind
schedule. Those dregs on
Selma will be wondering

-why I haven't been by
yet.
-We wouldn't want

-to disappoint them.
-RADIO: All units, all
units in the vicinity,

please respond. Possible
211, Fifth and Snider.
Silent alarm.

Let's pick that one up.

Hurry up.

Give me the money, now, get
it. Hurry up.

-You hit the alarm?
-SHOP OWNER: No, man, no,
no!

Don't. That's right.

Just keep that gun trained on
me,

just like that. If you turn
away from me, take that gun
off me for a second,

I'm gonna pull out my gun and
shoot you dead.

Move away, lady. Don't!

I just told you to keep that
gun on me.

You give me a
chance...there'll be meat
on the table

...with a drain at the end of
it. I can kill you

where you stand. I can kill
you and

you won't even realize
you turned away.

-Here, lady.
-No!

Did you hear me? Dead.

Dead if you turn away from me.
You give me a chance,

and St. Peter's gonna have to
send down his shuttle.
Come on, lady.

Ramirez! Take her.

-Don't!
-Don't give me that chance.

I will not miss. And you will
die.

You'll die
right there. They'll be
taping a ribbon the

outline of your body
right there. I will
absolutely kill you.

I will kill you. I will
kill you.

Don't look away. You look
away, you die.

You won't even feel
it. It'll just be over.

I'm gonna give you until
the count of four.

Give me the gun.

-One...two...

[SIRENS]

You should head
in and write this up. Do
you want me to drive?

I was about to ask you the
same thing.

-Did you hear the board came
in on the Donald case?
-Mm-hmm.

We didn't fire him. He did it
to himself. Cop or not, you
step outside the bounds,

-you pay the price. That's
it.
-So why is it

-eating at you?
-This whole
Internal Affairs trip is

driving me nuts. You
know, I'm really tired of
snooping on guys I went

to the Academy with.
Having them turn around
treating me like a leper.

-Hey, loosen up.
You're police to the
police. Someone's gotta

-do it.
-Yeah, but I don't know how I
let them

-talk me into it.
-Like the rest of
us. IA duties is a good

career move. Hey, it's a
two-year hitch. You can
take anything for two

-years.
-Two years. Two
years of being called the

-head hunter. Terrific,
Stan.
-We're

investigators, that's
all. We gather the facts.
Someone else rolls the

heads if the facts say
the heads should roll.
We've saved a few along

-the way too.
-Nice pep talk,
Stan. Straight out of the

manual. Do you really
believe any of that
stuff?

If I didn't, I
wouldn't be here.

Do you see what I mean?

Look at him. He's
scared to death, we
haven't even asked him a

question yet.

Tim Burke?

I mean, I wasn't gonna
shoot anybody.

I just...I said all the
words. I was just, you

know...I was just trying
to get through, right. I
just...nothing that I

could do would...I mean,
I know it was wrong.

You know you just...you know,

you guys, you don't know
what it's like.

Excuse me, can I get anyone
some coffee?

Hey Nance, could you please
wait in the other room like
I asked you? Please?

Listen, it wasn't Tim's fault,
it was mine,

all mine, and you are
treating him unfairly and it's
not right.

-It's okay.
-It's not right.

Nance, Nance. It's
okay. Excuse me a second.

This is none of the
department's business.
It stinks.

It's not professional to show
human emotion.

-Sorry.
-Forget it.

We're just trying
to do our job, okay?

Yeah. Yeah. Well,
they could have my job
for this.

What did Briggs tell you?

He said your wife
is an alcoholic. You were
having a fight about it.

He also said
you accosted her at the

Slumber Land Motel...

and that you threatened her
with your gun.

Well, about two
years ago, we lost a
baby.

And Nance...well at first, you
know, a little Brandy would
relax her,

but then, you know, it got out
of hand.

And we went to the doctor
about it and we went to the

church about it, and we'd
talk and she'd promise.

And over the last six to eight
months, she'd be gone days.

You know, I'd get calls,
wearing my black and whites,

pick her up just wandering
around or the clerk at
some motel

wanting to know what to do
with her. And after some guy
just dumped her...

Is that why you
were at the motel that day?

-Yeah.
-Why the gun?

Well, when I got there, she
didn't even know me, you know.

She...she started
grabbing me

and begging
for a drink, telling me

all the things that she
was gonna do, you know,
anything for this drink.

And...
[SIGHS]

I don't know. I
just, you know, I
just...I put my gun under

her chin and I told her
that she would be better
off dead than the way

that she was.

I just didn't have anymore
words.

Hey, Stace. Back
there, I mean, you were
scared, weren't you?

-Scared? Are you
damn crazy?
-Well, yeah, for

a couple of minutes I
thought maybe you were.

Hey, Dominic! Pull over here.

Hey, Stace, you're late today.

-Hey Dominic, bustin' a punk.
-Just got 'em in.

Papayas, I don't get
these too often. You tell
me what you think.

-They look pretty
good. Appreciate it.
-Let me know what

-you think, I'll set you
some aside tomorrow, ah?
-Thanks, see you then.

I'd swear he clocks
me coming around that
corner.

-What's the story?
-Oh, it was about a

year ago, a couple of
punks were doing a
Mexican hat dance on his

head until I got there
and showed them a
two-step of my own.

You should've been there.

-Well, well, Monte baby.
-What?

Let's check him
over. This is Adam 647,
put us on code six at

Eastern and Third.

You like your nights?
Come on, you said

-you'd make it another 20.
-Got yourself a
trick, huh? Huh, Lily?

-Get out of here.
-You're sewer
slime. I don't ever want

-to see you around here
again.
-This isn't straight.

You just...
I'll kill you outside,
not here, now get out,

you...hey, get out. I'll
kill you! Kill you. I'll
kill you. I'll kill you.

You're busted,
freak, you better get
used to it. Up and at

-'em, Lily.
-Let go of me. Let
go. I'll get you. If it's

the last thing I do, I'm
gonna see you in hell.
It's none of your

-business what I do.
-Oh, shut up and
get in, Lily.

-I lost him, Stace.
-It doesn't matter.

-I got what I wanted.
-Well, who was
he? Or better, why was I

-chasing him?
-Monte is
Lily's pimp.

-What's the charge?
-I'll come up with something.
Come on.

All right, stand still now.
Right there. Smile pretty,
sweets.

All right, Lily,
pick it up. Now look,

darling, you're gonna get
printed. And if we
hassle, you're gonna get

-that mascara smudged,
maybe break a nail.
-Buzz off.

-Lily Pantages?
-The one and only.

Bivens, IAD, I
understand you want to
make a complaint.

Yeah, I got a beef
for a brute cop by the
name of Chick Stacy.

Pine and Draper,
Adam 39.

This is very nice. We've got a
frustrated aircraft
designer amongst us?

Would anybody like to claim
it? No? So much for
children's hour.

Adams and Ray, six Adam 21.

Fortune, Kowalski, you're
on 35.

Nice you could join us, Stacy.

I thought so too, Sarge.

-Ramirez.
-Yes, sir.

You're on 47 with Baxter.
Jefferson and

-Frank, six Adam 63.
Gonzalez...
-New partner, huh?

-Ask and you shall receive.
-Well, that's the

-way it goes sometimes.
-Stacy.

-Yo.
-You're in a one-man car
tonight. Six lima one.

Six lima one, you
got it.

Okay, are there any questions?
Well then let's hit the field.

-Stace.
-Look, for the record, I told
the watch commander we

had a personality glitch.

You bet. You might
have learned how to do
some righteous police

work.

Stace. Wait up
just a second. I want to talk
to you.

-What's up, Sarge?
-I put you on that

L-car for a reason. We've
got company for you and I
figure you're gonna be

-tied up at least half the
watch.
-What company?

That prostitute
you busted, Lily, she
beefed you, Chick. IA is

downstairs. Can you give
me one hint why you can't
at least try to prevent

some of these beefs? Your
package is as thick at
the Metropolitan yellow

-pages.
-Then quit takin'
them. It's a waste of

-paper to listen to those
gutter crawlers.
-You're still

living in the dark ages,
Stace. There's no more
running 'em out of town

by sun down. Remember
that the gutter crawler's
got the same rights as

the upstanding citizens,
and maybe these beefs
will stop pouring in here.

Well, I apologize
for not seeing the new light,
Sarge.

But just look at the facts. My
beat is clean, not like
the rest of the garbage pile.

And I'm gonna keep
it that way.

Bivens. Petrelli.

Haven't we
danced this dance before?

Sit down, Stace.

You know what this is about?

Don't need to tell
me, it's about the hooker
I busted yesterday.

-Do you want to
take it from the top?
-There isn't much

to it. I was on a routine
patrol. I see this Monte
Fontaine floating out of

a building. That's the
lady's pimp, two and two
said he delivered a

trick. He disappeared in
the smog. I nailed her.
End of story.

-Lily alleges
excessive force.
-Is that all you

guys have on me? I used
only that force necessary
to bring her into

-custody.
-Now that is getting to be a
pretty stale description.

Well, that's the way it came
down. Now are you gonna
believe that skuzz,

or are you gonna
believe a police officer who's
trying to keep his street

-clean?
-Hey, don't you wave the flag
at us.

We know better and so do
you.

I deny excessive
force. Now if you guys
had any evidence or any

witnesses, you would have
come down on me before
now. So since you boys

-are through...
-Sit still, Stacy.
We'll talk about what you

-didn't have. Probable
cause to check out Lily.
-Bivens, you're a

-lawyer now, huh?
-Spotting her pimp
isn't enough. The door to

Lily's apartment says it
was crashed into it,
that's excessive force.

-No knock and notice.
-844 of the penal
code, again for the

-courts. I nailed her,
didn't I?
-Did you? That

wasn't even close to a
righteous bust. The city
attorney wouldn't file.

-We had to let her go.
-There's always
next time.

Which brings us
to Lily's next charge,
harassment.

When Lily stops
breaking the law, I'll
stop doing my job.

Damn it, you knew
there was no way this
could ever stand up in

court. You just figured
if you busted Lily's
chops long enough, she'd

-go do business someplace
else.
-And wouldn't that

-be a shame.
Oh, Stacy, come
on. You know you've only

got a little bit of time
until your 30 years are
up. Why don't you put

your feet up on a desk
and relax a little bit
till your time's in?

Because the
streets are what I do.
And even you turkeys know

-that's how it has to be done.
-We're gonna have to talk
to Lily again.

Well, if there's anything to
what she says, the report will
pass on to the captain.

I guarantee you. He'll give
you a choice, a desk or
suspension.

Suspension for
Lily?
[LAUGHS]

If that ever happens, you'll
really see me come through
some doors.

Have a nice day.

Hey, don't look so down.
It stays our little secret.
Come on, baby, I know how to

make you smile. I felt bad
about forcing it, baby. But
when you said you didn't

want to see me anymore,
well, girl's got to live.
Ain't like blackmail.

This way I don't have to
work and you get to keep
me all to yourself.

You worried about that fink
cop, Stacy. Don't, he
won't be here till night.

I keep track of him now.
You know...

Police Story will continue in
a moment.

Butch. Briggs.

-Huh?
-Are you the Sergeant Briggs
that made

out the complaint against
Tim Burke?
-Well that depends

-on who I'm talking to.
-From IAD, we're
handling.

Well, sure. Yes,
that kind of conduct. I
made it right out.

-Why?
-Why what?

Why'd you burn it?

Why didn't you just
give him a transfer and
forget about it? The

guy's trying to hang
close to home, help out
his wife.

She's been
sober since it happened.
They just hit a low

point. They're getting
her help, they're working
it out, man.

He committed an
assault. If I handle
something like that

informally, I can forget
about my next promotion.

Well, can you weigh up a
ladder, Briggs.

Hey, I don't need to take that
garbage, especially from you.

I mean, what else are you
doing in IA but trying to
make rank, huh?

That's right, that's what we
do.

What is it? Twenty heads and
you trade 'em in for a set of
silver bars?

It's that and a Captain Marble
decoder ring?

You're here
alone? You don't have any
family or anything or what?

No? That's it. I've
been coming out here for

years now.

You got business
in this neighborhood?

I'm not doing
anything, not breaking
some law.

Well, maybe not.

But then again...I tell
you what.

-Yes, Officer.
-I'll give you a
choice. You can either

walk away like right now,
or you can crawl away and
be out of business for

the next month. You pick
it.

Faster.

[GUNSHOTS]

What's the rumble? Everyone's
talking like Stacy's got
it in the fat.

Well, he's saying
he took Lily out after
she tried to snipe him.

-Yeah, so what
about it?
-There's no gun.

-What?
-No gun. Can't
find a piece.

Chief Powers,
do you think you'll be
able to give us any

information on what
happened here tonight?
There's rumors that there

-was an unauthorized
shooting...
-Okay, right now I

-know as much as you do.
Nothing.
-Is that officer

that was involved...

I'll talk to him. All right,
come on, Stacy.

-What went down?
-Chief, I told the
shooting team, I'll tell

you. This thing is
getting blown way out of
shape.

They tell me the
girl beefed you
yesterday.

That's right. And
she also shot at me an
hour ago. Now they just

have to keep on digging.
There's a gun. Chief,
there has to be a gun.

I'm having two
detectives drive you to
the station.

-Then what?
-You'll be
relieved from duty

pending the investigation.

Office Stacy, can you tell us
what happened? Word is
you have a bit of a heavy

-hand, is that true?
-What'd you say?

Well, according to the
neighbors...

-Why is it I'm nervous?
-Oh, I don't know. Maybe it's
because of our big head hunter

-reputation. It's all
image, Dave.
-What he's saying

-is, we don't really bite.
-I hear you're
talking to the guys at

the division about Stacy.
Why? Isn't the DA
handling the

-investigation.
-Yeah, well we've
been asked to help out on

a small part of the
overall picture. So we'll
be concerned with Stacy's

job performance. That's
what we're asking you
about.

-His beat was
clean, crime was down.
-Well, you worked

-with him, Dave. What kind
of guy was he?
-I'm not sure I

have the right to answer
that question. Look, I
know Stacy's in deep, and

I know the DA hasn't made
a decision yet. But what
I think or what I don't

-think shouldn't have
anything to do with it.
-Well, the DA

-thinks it does,
or we wouldn't be asking.
-A lot of the

troops we've had marching
in and out of here, they
say that you didn't have

-any deep love for Stacy.
-Okay, but there
are a lot of people I

-work it. I'm not going to
rave about it, you know.
-Specifically, why

-did you dislike him?
-Hey, I didn't
dislike the guy. Just his

style and mine were
different, that's all.
But I've only been on the

force a little over a
year. Maybe with a little
more experience, I would

-have understood him
better.
-Understood what?

-His methods?
-I guess.

-Specifically.
-All right.

Sometimes he was
heavy-handed. I guess times
changed and Stacy didn't want

to change it with him, so he
found other ways to keep his
beat clean.

And it was those other ways
that turned you off.

But he had a feeling for
people.

If you were straight, he was
straight. Saw a lot of

-that side to him too.
-You've written
out enough to change your

-mind about him, huh?
-Bivens, Petrelli.

Who gave you guys the
authority to go to the police
psychiatrist in the Burke

-case?
-I thought it was
a necessary part of the

-investigation, Lieutenant.
-You did, did you?

Officer Burke is
considered stable. Under
traumatic personal

circumstances, he
exhibited a moment of
abhorrent behavior. His

subsequent approach to
his problems indicate an
admirable for level of

-maturity in the fitness
to duty.
-Well, without the

embroidery, that's what I
thought too. Now we got
an expert to verify it.

That is a
decision for the brass,
they decide if he goes to

a shrink. If, just if
they wanted to get this
character fired for a lot

of reasons you may know
nothing about, you've
made it just a little

-more difficult for them.
-Well, they got
all the facts to make a

-decision.
-No, they've got
the investigative facts

and a shrink's opinion.
You got him stuck if they
want to make a move.

Do me a favor, hm? Stick to
the Stacy case.

Don't go off on anymore
tangents.

See? See what
playing white knight
around here does for you?

-Maybe we saved
the kid's job.
-Oh, you think

he's gonna thank you for
it? No way, pal. He's
gonna thank the shrink.

You are still a head
hunter.

-Hey Stacy, how you doing?
-Well, I guess I
need a rest, huh?

-You know Baxter?
-Yeah, sure,
Baxter.

I'm kind of
surprised seeing you
here.

Well, I got
suspended but my bills
continue. I've got

-business with the credit
union.
-I thought you'd

be out living the good
life, getting in some
golf.

I don't know how
to play golf. Maybe after
this Mickey Mouse stuff

-is over, I'll learn.
Yourself?
-Well, you know,

I mean, fighting the
fight.

We gotta roll.

-Yeah, I guess...
-Good to see you,
Dave.

Yeah, you too.
Hey, I'll see you soon,
huh?

-Yeah, see you
soon.
-Hey. It's all

-gonna turn out okay.
-Yeah, sure.

-A guy like that out of the
job, what does he do?
-God knows.

Right now
outside of Chief
Powers'...

I don't give a
damn how loud the press
is screaming, you have

-got to give it a full
investigation.
-What do you think

-we've been doing for the
past month, Dave?
-You still haven't

-found that pimp, Monte
Fontaine.
-No, but the

-street word is he left
town after Lily's death.
-Stacy thinks he's

-important to us...
-Important how? Stacy
can't tell us why

he's important. Only the
fact that he was Lily's
pimp.

It means no one
was closer to her than
Monte. He might have

-answers if we ask the
right questions.
-It doesn't make a

-defense.
-I still think
you're being premature.

-You're moving too fast.
-Too fast? My
phone doesn't stop

ringing. We have a body
with two of Stacy 's
bullets in it, absolutely

no way to show self
defense, and everything
in the world to give him

motive. Now you show me
some other areas to look
in and I'll be more than

-happy to do it.
-Right now I can't
come up with any.

Well, neither can I.

-There they are.
-Here they come.

Do you have a
statement for us?

The district
attorney's office, in
cooperation with the

police department, has
completed a thorough
investigation. It has

been established that
there does exist
sufficient evidence to

file a criminal complaint
against Officer Charles
in the shooting

death of Lily Pantages.
He will be charged with
murder in the first degree.

Some quiet,
please.

Sergeant Bivens,
do you recall meeting
with Lily Pantages

approximately three
months ago on the third
day of April?

-Yes, I do, ma'am.
-And what was the
substance of that

-conversation?
-She alleged
misconduct by Officer Stacy.

What form of misconduct?

Excessive force,
illegal entry,
harassment.

And did you
subsequently investigate
these complaints?

-Yes, ma'am.
-And what did you
find?

There was some
physical evidence of
forced entry.

Have there been
other complaints against
Officer Stacy?

-Yes, ma'am.
-How many? Two?
Three?

-Eleven.
-Eleven. Thank
you.

Officer Bivens,
is it true that suspects
often complain against an

-arresting officer?
-Yes, sir.

So that a particularly
effective officer might,

as a matter of course,
accumulate more
complaints than another

officer, is that not so?

-Well...
-In terms of his
record, would you term

-Officer Stacy an
effective officer?
-I have to say

-yes, absolutely. Very
effective.
-Thank you, Officer Bivens.

-You may step down.
-In what manner

-did Officer Stacy
threaten you?
-With his

nightstick, is how. He
made it very clear, I
either left the

neighborhood immediately
or he would have used his
stick on me.

In other words,
it was obvious he didn't
want you hanging around.

Correct. I can
see why now. He didn't
want any witnesses when

-he killed that poor girl.
-I object.

Sustained. The last remark
will be stricken from the
record. The jury will

-disregard the last statement.
-I have no further
questions to ask this

witness, your Honor.

-State your name, please.
-Ralph Thomas.

And you are an
investigator for the

-district attorney's
office?
-Yes, ma'am.

You testify that
you investigated Officer

-Stacy's assertion of a
self defense situation.
-Yes, ma'm. Officer

Stacy insisted the three
shots were fired at him
from the upstairs window.

-Naturally, we look for a
gun.
-Naturally. Did

-you find the gun?
-No, ma'm.

-Any evidence of a gun
showcasing?
-We did a thorough search with

-magnetometers, no slugs
in the area.
-Any evidence of

bullet fragments in the
street, in the area where
Officer Stacy says he was

-standing?
-No, ma'am.

Yet Officer Stacy says that
Lily fired at him. Isn't
there some sort of test

that will detect whether
or not a person has fired
a gun?

Yes, ma'am, a
paraffin test. The skin
of the hand is

impregnated with nitrates
from the gunpowder and we
can detect these

-nitrates.
-Was such a test
performed on the body of

-Lily Pantages?
-Yes, ma'am. As far
as we can determine, Lily

-could not have fired any
gun.
-Thank you.

Investigator
Thomas, did you consider
that a second party may

have been in the room at
the time who took the
gun?

-Yes, sir, but we
could not determine that.
-But could there

-have been a second party
in that room?
-If there was, none

-of the neighbors saw him.
-Well, I assume
you checked the room

thoroughly for
fingerprints and the
like?

The room saw heavy
traffic, sir. The only
lifts we got were bits

-and pieces, or Lily's.
-But you didn't
find fingerprints. And

there could have been a
second party in that
room.

-It's possible.
-Now Officer Stacy
insists that three

shots were fired at him.
Did you question the
neighbors?

-All they said,
sir, was a lot of shots.
-And how many

-shots were fired by
Officer Stacy?
-Three.

Couldn't most
people remember three
shots? And save the term

a lot for say, six?

Nothing further, your
Honor.

-The witness may
step down. Ms. Willis.
-The people call

-Officer Dave Ramirez.
-Do you swear the
testimony you're about to

give is the truth, the
whole truth, and nothing
but the truth so help you God?

-I do.
-Now as I understand it,
Officer Ramirez,

you were
transferred to the
Allandale division in

-March of this year?
-That's correct.

-With whom were
you assigned?
-Officer Stacy.

-The defendant?
-Yes, ma'am.

Were you satisfied working
with Officer Stacy?

Just yes or no, Officer
Ramirez.

Were you satisfied
working with Officer
Stacy?

-No, ma'am.
-No. In point of
fact, you asked for a

-change of partners, did
you not?
-Yes, ma'am.

Could you tell
the court why you asked
for the change? I assume

you know that you were
not the first of Officer
Stacy's partners to make

such a request. Would you
tell us why you did?

-Excuse me, miss. Stacy
seemed to know you.
-Is that so?

I'm sorry, I'm an investigator
on the case. Is there anything
that...

No, I don't have
anything to do with his
trouble.

-I don't
understand.
-There's nothing to

understand. I thought I
should be here, but I
realized I was too late.

Years and years too late.

I was an effective
cop.

Yeah, I bent a few rules, but
my beat was safe with decent
people.

The dregs, well, that was a
different story. But nobody
was shot by me that didn't try

to kill me first.

It's about as straight as I
can be.

-Nothing further, your Honor.
-Ms. Willis.

Office Stacy offers no new
evidence, your Honor. The case
speaks for itself.

-Objection.
-Sustained. Ms.
Willis, save your remarks

-for summation.
-The people see no
need for cross

examination, your Honor.

Would you summon
the jury? Have you reached the
verdict?

-Have you reached a verdict?
-We have, your honor.

The defendant will rise.

It is the verdict of the jury
that Charles Stacy be found
guilty of murder in the

first degree.

Sentencing will be
set for three weeks from

today. The defendant will
be held in custody until
that time. Court's adjourned.

Stacy. Look, I'm
sorry.

-I could tell when
you were on the stand.
-It was the truth.

-There was nothing
else.
-Look kid, you find

that pimp, Monte
Fontaine, and you find
out what the real truth

is. Can you believe that
turkey judge finally
convicted somebody?

-You really did a number on
me.
-Anything you want.

-Anybody you want to
get a hold of?
-No, there ain't

anybody.
-Stace, the other
day, that girl.

-I just told you,
there wasn't anybody.
-Who was she?

She used to be my daughter.
Police Story

Police Story will continue in
a moment.

It's hard see you get this,
Stace.

-Aaronson.
-In the flesh.

More than we were a couple
rookies walking the beat.

-That got old.
-What are you doing
here?

My job. I got
to get you ready for the
bus.

-You got hurt?
-No, I asked for
this job. A few years

back, I asked for a pole
job to finish off my 30.
They gave me this.

-A pole job, you?
-Couldn't handle
the street anymore.

When we started, Stace, I
don't know. People said
hello. Kids looked up to

you. Trouble on the
corner, a kick in the key
centered on its way.

All of a sudden, I was a
pick. All of a sudden, I
had to be half of a

-lawyer.
-Yeah.

Pretty easy
to get disgusted, huh?

I got scared. A
couple of beefs against
me, see. Well, the young

guys seemed to handle it,
but I couldn't make the
right move.

I started worrying I'd come up
against the wrong beef
that they'd pull my pin

or I didn't get...like
you.

A couple of minutes,
the bus will be ready to roll
downstairs.

They'll take you to Gladiator
School.

-Gladiator School?
-Jacksonville.
That's what they call it.

That's what it is. Rules.

I know the rules.
Go ahead, hands and feet.

All's I want my
30. My daughter and her
husband have a place

upstate. There's a couple
of acres near there. It's
cheap living up there.

-Sounds really
good.
-Chick Stacy was

tough, but a murderer? I
don't believe it. And
what if he is...innocent,

-I mean.
-Chick Stacy was
the last of the

-hardliners.
-But he still
could be innocent.

-Could be, so?
-So we should do
what we can.

-Which is what?
What do you want from my
life, Ramirez?

-I think we
should re-open the case.
-Wait a minute,

-aren't you the guy who
testified against him?
-Yeah, I

testified. And what I
said was his methods were
not my methods. I did not

-say he was a killer.
-Dave, these
things are up to the DA.

They already got that
conviction. You might as
well forget it.

Well maybe
Internal Affairs should
retract the case.

-Come on, you're
still green.
-Those IA guys

have no interest in
anything but nailing
cops, not helping.

-There's no way, Dave.
-Yeah, well I
just can't let it lay,

all right. Something
about Stacy. I just can't
let it lay.

All right, step
in, gentlemen. First six
against the wall.

Second six, up front.

Men near the wall, turn and
face me.

Officers, remove the shackle.

Open up! All right everybody,
over to R and R. Single file,

move it, let's go. Come
on, hustle, hustle.

Pick it up, come on. Lock up.

All right, listen up.
Some of you have been
through this before.

But for the new faces how
it's gonna be. For now,
you keep your mouth shut,

you do what you're told.
Any questions, you hold
for orientation.

Questions are a
counselor's job, they're
not mine. Here, you're

gonna be checked in,
given a fish it, towels,
sheets, toilet articles,

and a copy of the rules.
Now any of you who are
carrying balloons, either

drugs or money, give them
up now and make it easy.

Okay, everybody, into a
cubicle and drop the duds.

Hey homeboy, see that dude
over the second cube?
He's a cop.

Hold it. All right, let's go.

Orientation's in north
block. You put up there

for a week or so till
you're classified.

He's dead.

-I feel you guys
owe it to him.
-We owe him?

-Where do you get off with
that?
-Because there's no one else.

We've been through it.

-The evidence doesn't change.
-Stacy thought that pimp

-Monte was the
key.
-How could he be?

-He hasn't been seen since
the day you chased him.
-Well maybe

that's it. He's running.
Why else would he
disappear if he didn't

-have something to hide?
-Why do
you want to help Stacy?

Well maybe I
feel like I shortchanged
him.

-Oh, come on.
-Because he was a
cop, and hell of a cop

too. I'm not saying he
wasn't out of step, but
if you guys had to yell

for help, do you see me
coming running with my
Miranda card or Stacy who

grabs trouble by the
throat? He's a cop, and
we should give him all

-any cop has coming.
-And you don't
think that happened?

The DA ran the
investigation. The media
and power pressures had

him convicted just as
effectively as the
evidence.

You guys once
told me that IA cuts both
ways.

All I'm asking is
that you at least take a
look. Will you do it?

Will you give him one
more shot? You know what
kind of man Stacy is,

black and white, no gray.
Hang 'em at dawn and no
cussing or throwing at

the women folk. Now that
may be extreme of him,

old fashioned, but it's
kind of moral in its way.

Well, you're
right about that. Stacy is a
man who believes in

-right and wrong.
-And would a man

like that believe in
murder?

About time.

-Get out of here.
-Orientation told
me it's supposed to last

-a week.
-They don't know
what to do with you.

-Where am I going?
-To see the
warden. Let me tell you,

that's special. That's
never done.

Escort! Look at this, it's
like a

checker board. It never
used to be like this. The
group of blacks over

there call themselves the
black guerilla family.
Over there, that bunch,

part of the Mexican
mafia. Stay away from
them, they might leave

you alone. And the whites
are ganged up too. They
call themselves the Aryan

brotherhood.

Talk sense,
Stacy. I'm talking sense

-to you and you're busting
my chops.
-I don't want

-protective custody,
Warden. I don't want it.
-You said that.

You've been saying that.
And your counselor and
his lieutenant couldn't

talk you out of it, so
they dropped it in my lap
and I'm telling you,

-you're dead without PC.
-I got to be here.
I've got to make it here.

-Please, Warden. Don't
make me special, please.
-You're special.

You know, the cons knew
about a cop on campus
before most of my staff

did. It's their world.
It's gonna be very uphill
for you.

-Speech, warden?
-I don't need your
permission. It's my

responsibility. You've
got to have protective
custody.

Prison within a
prison, uh-uh Warden, I
got too much time.

-In PC, you'll be
alive.
-You put me in

population, I will do the
best time possible. You
put me in PC, and I will

-raise all the hell I can.
-What am I beating
my brains out for? One

cop who went bad? You
want mainline?

You got it. C-block.

What's the use of
talking?

-Here he comes. Boy or girl?
-Open C-block.

Number seven, that's your
house from now on. Close
C-block.

Nice to see a familiar face.

Well, don't you remember
me?

Yeah, sure, bar
and grill in the
boulevard. You kicked an

old lady senseless. Then
empty the cash register.
I nailed you on the way

-out, how's that for
recall, Rafferty?
-Just wanted to

-be sure we all remember.
-When I nailed you,
I was doing my job. And

you had it coming. Now
you're of no interest to
me. What do you say we

-leave it at that and we
do our time?
-Sure, we can

-let it go at that.
-Good.

But we won't.

Out of there,
out of there. Out of
there. All right, out of

his cell. What's going
on?

-He tripped.
-Who threw the first punch?

Like the man said, I tripped.

You just walked in here, so
I'm going to set you
straight.

I know a hell of a lot more
about what goes on around here
than you think I do.

Happens again, I'll put you
both in the hole with the
beat, got that?

All right, play time's over.

-Lock 'em down.
-C-block, lock
up the count. Move it.

Closing.

Home, sweet home.

Bivens, tell me why that drunk
driving case is two days
late?

-It's in type
writer, Lieutenant.
-Uh-huh, where's

-Petrelli?
-He's up at R and
I, he's checking out some

-packages.
-Like this one?
That's what I thought,

Fontaine, Monte. You guys
are nosing into the
case. Is that why your

-other cases are falling
behind?
-We're just trying

-to keep everything going,
Lieutenant.
-It is over,

Stanley. Stacy is in the
joint. That is a criminal
matter and it is none of

-our business.
-It's gotta be
somebody's business

-because nobody's
interested.
-No, I think

there's more to it than
that. You don't know if
is guilty or if

he's innocent. You're
just trying to make
something happen. You

think I don't know? You
think I haven't been
through this? You're just

trying to live with
yourself, Stanley. Why
else would you be doing

-this?
-Because there's
some doubt.

-The jury didn't
find any.
-Well, I have some.

-And Ramirez has
some doubts.
-Don't let those

other cases slip too far.

Bivens. That young cop
you got off the hook, with the
alcoholic wife.

-Tim Burke?
-211 downtown

turned into a shoot-out.
Burke is credited with
saving his partner's life

and taking the suspect's
all by his lonesome. You
bailed out a hell of a cop.

-Thank you.
-I'll let you have it about
the bad ones,

I guess you got a
reckon to know about the
good ones too.

This is the
fourth time we've been

back to this dump. We
keep looking and looking,
we'll never find

-anything.
-I'm trying a new
approach, okay?

We're cross,
Stan. Why are you doin'
this?

-We're doing this.
We're partners, remember?
-My next

question. I thought maybe
you're gonna put in a
request for a new partner

-like that kid Ramirez.
-What are you,
jealous? Oh, come on, I

don't know why. I mean,
maybe it's the way this
kid was able to stand up

after putting in for a
new partner and taking
the stand. I just think

-Ramirez got a lot of
moxy.
-Moxy. Moxy?

-Come on, Stan, nobody's
had moxy since the '50s.
-Hey, maybe that's

what's wrong with this
world.

Lab wards have been through
this place already. What is
Parks gonna find that

-they didn't find before?
-You sound like
the civilians that think

SID guys are Sherlock
Holmes. They do what the
officer on the scene

says. He says look for a
gun, that and routine
dusting for prints is all

they do. So I asked Parks
to look for something
else.

-Such as?
-I'm working
backward. Assuming Chick

Stacy told the truth,
that he was fired at from
Lily's window.

Based on the
trial, that's far out
already. The evidence

says Lily did not fire a
gun. So what are you
saying? What? Somebody

-else fired from the
window.
-Right, go with me

on this. Now look, I
don't know who or why.
Let's say I'm somebody

who wants to draw fire
from Stace. I fire at
him.

But, because
you're magic, there were no
bullets. That the lab

-wards did check for.
-Right, I fire,
but instead of bullets.

Blanks. Blanks?
Come on, Stan, that's
really reaching it.

I can tell you
boys right now there's no
wad from a blank here.

-You sure?
-You know, a wad's
just that, a wad. When

you fire a blank, it
comes out in one piece,
like a plug. It would be

-big enough to see.
-Well, even if
you don't find the wad,

-there'd be little bits,
fiber, wouldn't there?
-Well, here are

your fibers. They could
be from a blank or from
her clothes, anything.

Wait a minute,
the fiber from a blank
would be impregnated with

-gun powder, right?
-Right.

That's it. Run a test on the
fibers. If we come up
with a positive test,

-what do you look for,
nitrates?
-But I know we'll

-find nitrates in those
even without testing.
-What? Why?

Because there are
nitrates in the dust in
this room.

Then that proves
a gun's been fired in
here, right?

Wrong. The park up
the block, I smelled it
when I went by. The parks

department fertilized it
probably less than a week
ago. Nitrates from the

-fertilizer, they're in
the air.
-Don't tell me.

The same nitrates that
are found in gun powder,
right?

Can come from a
lot of places. If we gave
you a paraffin test after

you had fertilized your
lawn, you'd come out
looking like you'd been

using a machine gun.

You've led a charmed life, so
far.

You better watch
me, Rafferty. One of
these nights I'm gonna

-get you.
-Hey, Albert,
looks like they've got

your favorite today. I'm
your friend, Albert. I
found out something for

you. You see that guy?
Over there.

He's the guy that raped your
baby sister, Albert

He's the one.

Albert just found out he has a
sister.

I'm gonna crush you.

Would you like a biscuit?

Somebody contact
601-30 on Jackson.

-I got it.
-What's up?

We've got to brainstorm.

We need a
wadding to prove a blank,
right? Only there's no

way it's in that room.
Now to fire a blank from
a window, where would the

-wad go?
-Where would it
go? Hell out the window,

-but the yard's been
searched.
-Yeah, but what

if it didn't get that
far? It's here. It can't
be anyplace else. Out the

-window and into here.
-Dave, are you
sure you don't have to

-pay a visit to the
shrink?
-When was the

-last time it rained?
-Who knows?

-A couple months ago.
-Yeah, something
like that. Oh great, you

-could get sued.
-All right, look
out man, here it comes.

Give me a hand, would
you? Turn the hose on the
other end and tilt the

-drain up.
-If I ever canned
up, I want you on my side.

-Bingo.
-So you got a wad out of
a drain pipe.

Yeah, the lab
confirmed it came from a

-blank cartridge.
-I can't see that
proving much of anything.

It's not
somebody, probably Lily's
pimp made Stacy think he

-was being shot at. It's
self defense.
-Of course there's

no way to date a wad to
find out when it was
fired.

-No, but that's
it. Stace is innocent.
-You make a lousy

-lawyer.
-Thank you.

-Look, you guys are friends of
Stacy's right?
-Not exactly.

-Okay then, fellow
officers.
-Yes.

And this fellow
officer is now in jail
and the only thing that

stands between him and
freedom is a wad from a
blank cartridge?

-So what's your
point?
-My point is a

-judge could be skeptical.
-Are you saying we
manufactured this

-evidence?
-I'm sure you're
not going to tell me that

a couple of cops, one of
them Stacy's ex-partner,
couldn't start feeling

sorry for Chick Stacy?
After all, what's one
dead Lily against a

-brother officer? Lily the
scum, Lily the garbage.
-Ms. Willis, that

-damn sure is exactly what
we're trying to tell you.
-You bring me a

murderer, guys. You think
Monte Fontaine did it?

Great. You prove it. If
you get me some hard evidence,
I'd be glad to trade you a

pimp for a cop. Otherwise,
you'll excuse me, please?

Last week, San Francisco, says
they ran
a lead down on Fontaine.

Now he was there already.

-But the word is he's back
in our town.
-We're gonna

-need all the help we can
get to find him.
-There's one thing

I don't get. Why would
Fontaine kill one of his
big money sources?

Let's find out.

I know exactly
what he'll tell you.

Lies! He was no different
than any officer in the
wardroom. They were all

disloyal. I tried to run
the ship properly by the
book but they fought me

at every turn. If the
crew wanted to walk
around with their

shirttails hanging out
that's all right, let
them. Take the tow line.

Defective equipment, no
more no less, but they
encouraged the crew to go

around scoffing at me and
spreading wild rumors
about steaming and

circles. And then old
yellow stain. I was to
blame for Lieutenant

-Merrick's incompetence...
-Watch the
picture.

Lieutenant Merrick
was the perfect officer
but not Captain Queeg.

Ah, but the strawberries!
That's where I had them.
They laughed at me and

made jokes, but I proved
beyond the shadow of a
doubt, and with geometric

logic, that a duplicate
key to the wardroom
icebox did exist! And I'd

have produced that key if
they hadn't pulled Caine
out of action! I know now

they were only trying to
protect some fellow
officer and...naturally,

I can only cover these
things from memory if

I've left anything out,

why, just ask me specific
questions and I'll be
glad

-to answer them one-by-one...
-No further
questions, sir.

For he's a jolly
good fellow, for he's a
jolly good fellow, for

he's a jolly good fellow
that nobody can deny,
that nobody can deny.

Lights, hit the
lights! Now! Guards, hit
the light.

Who did this to you? Hey,
come on, talk to me. Hey. Go
to the hospital, get a

gurney over here fast.
Turn around and face the
wall. Now, move.

Take 'em down. Move them back
to their houses and

lock 'em down.

Police Story will continue in
a moment.

-Ramirez, what's
going on?
-He's still

-inside.
-You couldn't have
gone out the back?

No, I got Baxter
covering the rear. All
right, I'm gonna go in

-and jam him.
-Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa, what's

-that supposed to mean?
Sit in the car and wait?
-We wear our

suits, but we're still
cops. We can make our own
arrest.

Well, I know you
guys have been out of it
for a while...

Hey, that ain't
Jack the Ripper in there,
that's Monte. I think we

-can handle one little
pimp, all right.
-What?

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

-Hey man, what's the...
-Get up. Get up
and get straight.

-Hey man, why
you gotta fight with me?
-Monday.

-What?
-Monday morning,
you and me at the

-Academy, jogging to get
back into it.
-Okay.

-Straighten up.
-Nice catch.

-Take him down to the station.
Monday.
-Okay, Monday.

I didn't do Lily. I didn't.
The cop did it.

-Then why did you skip?
-Look, I didn't
need no trouble, all

-right? Lily's dead. Who
knows? Maybe I'm next.
-Why would you be

-next?
-I don't know. I
just wasn't gonna hang

-around and find out.
-Well, now if
you didn't ice Lily and

-the cop didn't ice Lily,
who did?
-Lily's business, it could

have been anyone of a hundred
different weirdos.

-A trick?
-Maybe. I mean,
most of them do have

-something to hide.
-You ran from
the apartment, who was

with Lily?
-Just some guy
that I picked up on

-Maine. He hit on me, so I
took him to Lily.
-What'd he look

-like?
-Just like a
hundred others.

-Let's get the
police artist on it.
-Hey, I didn't

-say I remember what the
guy looked like.
-You try, or I

might remember those lies
about the business you're
in.

-You got a
visitor.
-Visitor?

Yeah.

Hi, Betty. I'm surprised and
happy. But I didn't expect to
see you here.

Well...well, I

-tried. But I couldn't
stay away.
-Betty.

I had to see you.
Don't ask me why. God
knows what for.

-Maybe I knew there'd be no
one else coming.
-I wanted to talk

-to you at the trial.
-After 15 years?

Listen kid, I thought about
you. I really thought about
you, honest.

Yeah, right. Mom
said you always sent
Christmas money.

Maybe it was my
job, maybe I just didn't
want to get in your way.

-Maybe your stepfather's a
nice guy, huh?
-Yeah, he is. But

you know something? He
didn't look to knock the
world over and try to

save it. All he wanted

was a little time with
his family.

And you know what? I think
he's great.

How's your ma? Is
she happy? Good.

I got married. I'm
expecting. And don't
bother looking, I'm not

-showing yet.
-Congratulations.

Thank you.

-A lot of things
have happened, kid.
-Yeah. A lifetime

happened. I married a ski
bum.

We have a little
shop up in the North Country.

We just get by,
but I think it's gonna be
great for the baby.

That sounds like
it'll be fine for a baby
up there.

-Well, look, do you
want anything?
-Mm-mm.

Kid, I wasn't there for you.

I never realized how much
it was gonna hurt you.

I'm sorry, kid.

What the
hell are you guys doing
here?

-Would you believe
we're trying to help?
-What's that mean, help?

Now don't trip
over yourself with gratitude.

Here's what we
got. You make him?

-Could be anybody?
-This is
important. Pretend you're

-in Lily's apartment.
-The day I rousted
Lily? That was a trick.

-Who is he?
-You tell us.

-Who talked up the sketch?
-Monte.

You guys have got Monte
Fontaine? Hey, what's
happening? What's

-happening?
-Whoa, whoa,
whoa, slow down.

-Fontaine has an alibi for
that night.
-Can't be.

-He was in a
bar, 20 people saw him.
-I'm not buying it.

-We checked it.
He's eliminated.
-Let's just

-concentrate on the trick.
-The trick had no
beef with me.

-Well, maybe he
had a beef with Lily.
-You mean that he

sniped at me from Lily's
room? That's going around
a long way just to kill a

-hooker, isn't it?
-Maybe he wanted
two birds with one stone.

Well, look, we'll work up
the portrait and we'll
see what turns out.

I thought the
department dropped the
investigation after the trial.

-They did.
-Ramirez pushed it open again.

Ramirez? Well,
I'll be damned. Is that all
you guys got to go on?

Bits and pieces.

-Not enough to convince a
judge you're innocent.
-Enough to convince you?

Enough to
keep us trying.

Appreciate it. I
really appreciate it,
thanks guys.

-Again?
-See him?

-Same answer I gave you last
week and the week before, no.
-Come on, Sammy.

-I'll bet you're not
looking hard enough.
-Maybe we should

-jog a few memories.
-Hey, look, what's
this thing? I swear he's

not been in here. Maybe
he doesn't like my kind
of place.

-He's a kink, S&M.
-Then you are in
the wrong place.

What's the right
place?

-Try Maggie's on Melrose.
-All right, we'll let you
know.

You forget it,
okay. Just stay out. You

frighten 'em to death.

I heard that
place is supposed to be wild
and out of our area.

I think you
boys are lost.

-We need you to
answer a few questions.
-What can I do for you?

We're looking
into a murder.

No way, man.
They come in here to get
into their fantasy. Ain't

-no killing going on.
-Do you know him?

-The face is familiar.
-Well why don't
you put a name to it?

I can't. I've
only seen him in here
once or twice. So help

-me, man. I don't need
your kind of trouble.
-All right.

Police Story
will continue in a
moment.

-IAD.
-Yeah, give me
Sergeant Bivens.

-This is Bivens.
-It's Fontaine. Monty.
Yeah, you

-know that guy in the
sketch?
-Oh, you know who

-he is now?
-Yeah, well I
saw him on the news. The

-six o'clock news.
-Who is he?

Well, see, he
had this special
arrangement with Lily,

-but I still got my cut.
-Who is he? Cue it
up.

It's the new
candidate for state
assembly.

-Yeah, well
that's great.
-Well.

-Here's the guy,
to the candidate's right.
-Freeze it.

-What's his name?
-I don't know
his name.

-You rode with
Stace.
-I've never seen him before.

Who is it?

I just told you, I don't know
his name.

His name is John Mason.
Intelligence says
he's probably the most

influential political
power in the state.
Central committee right

-at the top.
-You're gonna
see him in the cabinet

-when the next governor
gets in.
-You just gave me

-a bomb, you know that?
-Well, we figure
that's what you're

-getting paid for, Chief.
-You can put him
in the room with Lily?

The CII says he
owns a '38, bought it
last year.

-What does do for
you?
-Well, maybe

plenty if he's got the
blanks to go with the
gun.

Can you get a
search warrant for the
gun?

-It's already in the works.
-You can't prove

he was looking to cover
up his kinky sex acts to
save a political career.

If we get the
piece, we don't need to,
Chief.

All right. I want
one more candle on the
cake. Stake him.

Stop it, you hear
me. Do you hear me,
that's it. The next time

someone looks at me so
much as sideways, I'm
coming after you and I'm

in here for murder,
comprende?

Alright, I've had with you
and Rafferty. You just
bought yourself a beat,

pal, a little time in a
hole. Now do I need the
cuffs?

-Nope.
-All right, move
it. Otus, grab Rafferty.

-You better plan
better next time.
-There ain't no

-next time.
-Did he scare you
away, or you got some

-love for a cop?
-He took
everything we threw at

him and he gave it right
back, but he never opened
his mouth. He was a cop.

-He's a con now.
-Let's move it,
Rafferty.

-The paddies are
gonna drop it.
-We'll pick it up.

We're hitting while
he's in the hole. That
way the bulls will figure

-Rafferty finally got the
job done.
-But he's away

-from the population. We
can't get to him now.
-Unless some of

our people are in there
with him.

Leads kind of a dull life,
doesn't he?

Come on, tear
his head off. Yeah!

All right, break
it up, break it up. You
know where you're goin'.

-Let's go, move.
-Have a good
time.

Looks like
we're starting to cook.

you're pretty smart,
Stacy. You just might
make it in here.

I made it on the
outside, I'm gonna make
it in here.

You know why
you scared us so bad on
the streets?

-I wasn't like
those other cops.
-No, you

weren't. You were like
us. You were one bad
bull. Now in my

book you're one bad con
too.

15 minute stretch.

-The hole. I
thought it'd be a dungeon.
-It used to be tough.

Now we got all kinds of
goodies, TVs, whatever you
got. You might lose a few

-privileges in here, but
it ain't nothin'.
-That's an oldie, I

think I saw it before.
That's where the cowboy
with the white hat kisses

-his horse instead of the
woman.
-You know what?

We got a few minutes
before chow. I was just
gonna catch some z's. I

can do that in your
house. You can come in
here on a bunk, kick back

-and watch TV if you want.
-Thanks, Rafferty.

Know what? It would scare the
hell out of me if I
thought I could be as

good a cop as I am a
hard-timer.

Three king three,
stand by with your search
warrants.

Everything is a
go on the other end.

They're at Mason's
apartment now. They got
the gun and bullets.

-All right.
-Is Mason still
inside?

-Just went in.
-I guess
everybody's got their

-thing, huh?
-Yeah. That creep
would kill to keep it a

-secret.
-Now let's do it.

Police officers, open up.

Hey, turn around,
Mason. Get over here.

-Please, please,
this is embarrassing.
-Save it, this

is not a vice bust. This
is for murder, pal.
-Come on, we

served a warrant on your
apartment today. We got
your gun, and Monte

Fontaine's testimony
about you a certain
friend...Lily. Let's go.

He's in number
three.

TV CHARACTER #2: Now what
they mean is, how much
are you paying?

TV CHARACTER #3: I don't
care how much they're
paying, don't you go

-spend it all on fancy
shirts in Jackson City.
-TV CHARACTER #2: Now you

-run along, Spal. This is
man business.
-Hey, guard.

Library coming
through.

Get him a doctor.

-Thanks, guys. Thanks for
everything.
-It never should

-have happened, Stace. That's
for sure.
-Well, it's over now.

The chief's
waiting to put you back
in the beat.

I think I'll just
take my retirement.

Things changed. A lot of
things changed.

Some ways, I'm too much like
them to ever wear a badge.

But I was one hell of a cop.

-Where to?
-To see my daughter
and my grandkid.

Next on Police
Story.

Look how many crazies there
are out there. Better watch
out for them, Joe.

Get away from me,
she's dead.

42 years, for god's sake,
haven't you
had enough?

Look, man, I know your badge
number.

And I know your
number too.

Get your white paws
off me then.

-Tom, they're making your life
hell.
-You're the one who's doing

that to me
