These are the journals of Darian Lambert, Captain, Fugitive Retrieval

.D.

2193.

My captain was after Henry Sabot, a ruthless killer from the 22nd century.

After weeks of research, we finally tracked him down. But we were not alone.

Henry Sabat.

Police officer, don't move.

I'm clean.

Not in the 22nd century.

And who the hell are you?

Darian Lambert, fugitive retrieval section.

Time to go home, Henry.

Oh, really?

Saved your butt again, amigo.

Mace, what the hell are you doing in the 20th century?

Chief sent me back.

We're partners again.

It began in the future.

A time machine called Trax.

Criminals who vanish.

And a lawman who must pursue.

Into the past.

Now he's among us.

A special breed of man.

He has one weapon and a computer named Selma.

Good morning, Captain Lambert.

With her, he will travel through our world.

Searching for fugitives from his own.

Knowing he cannot go home until he has found them all.

His name is Darian Lambert, and this is his story.

What's this stuff called?

Pastrami.

Now I can see why they outlawed animal fats.

Their stuff is primo.

Terrific.

Why are you here?

Remember Eli Targaryen?

I remember the headlines.

Police commander charged with corruption.

Probably wasn't a half of it.

This guy, he ran his department like his own private army.

Excessive force, anything goes.

Sounds like your kind of guy.

Hey, come on.

I may bend the rules a little bit, but I do it to stop the bad guys. This guy

had his own agenda.

Money and power.

Weren't you in his quadrant?

Yeah, and I sounded off against him like an eagle scout. So he asked me to

suspend it.

I didn't know about that.

Oh, it's no big deal.

Suspension never shut me up before.

And get this.

He tried to have me killed.

I don't kill so easy.

Did you bring him down?

Nope. Nobody did.

We knew he was guilty. We just didn't have any proof.

I mean, we had him right down to murder.

Then this month...

You got enough evidence to put him down for good.

17 bodies in shallow, unmarked graves.

And there's no telling how many other people he had killed.

Chief wants him bad.

So guess who he sent to get him?

Just like Sabat.

Hey, I'd say the taxpayer's a lot of money. You blew him away.

I got the job done. The job is to send the fugitives back, not to incinerate

them. They're arrogant.

Trust me.

I'm a professional.

This thing with Tartarine, it's not professional.

It's personal, isn't it? With me, it's always personal.

Do you have anything stronger than this?

Visual mode, sir.

Is there anything in my orders to stop me from just sending Mace back, finding

Tartarine myself?

Officer Warfield has been given that assignment. It is your duty to cooperate

with him.

He's never followed orders. Why should I? Because you are who you are, Captain.

He's a loose cannon.

Always was, always will be.

Well, well.

Ever actually seen one of these?

This is some...

I don't know what I'd do without her.

It's my pleasure to meet you. Only five issued, right?

I've always wondered what you looked like. Is my appearance satisfactory?

Oh, yes, you're beautiful and perfect for Lambert.

Just bought my own at Tech Mart.

Consumer Information Network Data Interface.

Cindy, for short.

Visual mode, Cindy.

Hi.

Hi. Hello, fellow computer.

I just love your hair.

Captain, am I to consider this device seriously?

Selma, cool your chips.

How do you do?

Do what?

Show him your stuff, Cindy.

Weather.

Early morning, low clouds clearing to mostly sunny skies.

High, 78.

Overnight, low, 59.

Joke?

How many lawyers does it take to insert an illumination disc?

I don't know. How many?

Three. One to insert it, one to object.

and want to collect a piece.

I also know the lyrics to every song in the top ten.

Fascinating.

Cindy's programmed with 2 ,000 trivia questions.

She can scan text at 40 words a minute and play stick -tack -toe.

She also does a mean strip tease.

Can Selma do all that?

Mace, Selma can do something Cindy can't. She can locate Eli Tartarine.

She can? Of course.

So I don't need you hanging around here complicating my life.

Oh, uno momento, por favor.

This is my assignment. I'm just cutting you in for old times' sake, partner.

I don't remember old times that fondly.

You almost got me killed half a dozen times. Dario, Dario, this...

He's my beat.

I call the shots.

I'll make a deal with you.

If your Selma can locate Charterine, I'll play by your rules.

Is that a promise?

Promise.

Selma?

Scanning.

Subject located.

Projection mode.

Eli Tarterine is using his own name.

He is currently chief of police in Great Plains City. It's amazing.

Thank you.

Well, let's go get him.

First, we have to get you some new clothes.

I can't believe they sent you dressed like that. I picked them out myself out

the Smithsonian.

Some big star used to wear this.

Sylvester Stallone, but I doubt he wore them down the street.

I'm going to go get you some of my things.

And then we're going to catch a jet to the Great Plains. A jet? What's a jet?

It's how they fly places these days.

Flying? How exciting!

Do me a favor. Get rid of that thing.

We'll be there soon.

Relax. Where are the anti -gravity modules?

Airplane don't have them.

Then what's keeping us up?

It's called lifting aerodynamics.

Don't you know anything about the history of flight?

Anything.

It just seems wobbly.

Hey, stop it.

With the legs, stop it.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to fasten your seatbelts and bring seats

tray tables into their full upright position for our descent into Great

If it's so safe, how come we gotta wear these?

Freeze!

Everybody!

You!

Tell the pilot to pull up!

We're not landing here!

Please, just take it easy.

Tell him. If I had my weapon.

If you fire an MI -12 or any weapon in this airplane, we lose cabin pressure.

I don't even want to think about what could happen.

The best thing to do is negotiate.

What are you doing? Stay down!

I don't negotiate.

Hey, you!

Stay down!

Look, I really got to get to Great Plain.

You want to die?

If I don't get to Great Plains, my boss is going to kill me anyway. So go ahead,

use the gun. Blow out the cabin pressure. We'll all die together, huh?

I got a better idea.

Listen, my technical crisis team was initially deployed to arrest an

intransitive fugitive.

Eli Tartarine. That's really great.

Talk about drawing attention to yourself.

What, you don't want to be a star?

The whole world, including Tartarine, is going to see us arrive.

You got a point there. Yeah.

What about the trouble on the plane?

We know how to handle these things.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

What are we gonna do?

planes international yes well we always have a plan in place for any

contingencies which is what makes my unit unique in its ability to protect

public i love this guy he'll take credit for anything captain who were those

heroic officers on board this flight today can you give us their names none

my people seek individual recognition besides the identity of those men it's

classified

You were on board today, so tell us what happened up there. The police, they had

a pair of terrific undercover men on that plane. They saved our lives. Thank

for Captain Tottering.

Well,

Captain, that may say it all. If the city's ever had a public hero, you could

it.

I just believe in doing the best job possible.

He's incredible.

He's doing it again, making himself look good.

I want...

and know who the hell was on that plane.

Come on.

This is gonna be worse than I thought.

Time track will continue.

Whoa!

They're coming pretty close.

The latest advance is anti -lock brakes.

No anti -polar fuel distance generators?

Not yet.

We're going to find some other clothes.

Why don't we just go get Tartarin? You saw that scene at the airport.

We're not going to be able to get to him out in the open.

Yeah, you're right. He's probably got his own little army working for him

already. But every army has its malcontents.

That's what I was, and I ended up on his hit list.

My guess is, even now, with his enormous popularity, Tartarin's still got

enemies.

Another hit.

Good cops who won't play ball with it. Exactly.

All we need now is cheap suits and wing tips.

Wing tips.

Sorry, internal affairs or not, all requests for information on TCT

have to go through the unit commander.

I've already spoken to Captain Tartarine. That's why we're down here.

nobody's notified me.

And I thought they had their act together.

Look, Johnson, you're busy, we're busy.

Everybody's got something to do, right?

Right, and orders to follow.

Of course, of course. Sometimes you just got to break the mold, you know what I

mean?

Right.

Officer Johnson, records.

This is Captain Tartarine.

Two high -A men will be down there shortly.

Yes, sir, they're here now.

Yes, sir.

That was Captain Tartarine.

Nice of him to call.

Everything you need is right through here.

After you.

Thank you.

Nice work, Selma.

Need any help with the program?

I don't think so, thanks.

We don't know the program.

We don't need to.

Selma, search.

TCT personnel for any anomalies.

Jim Berkey.

Meritorious service award.

Leadership certificate.

Oh, wait a minute. What's that?

Disciplinary report.

Behavior unbecoming an officer.

Officer Berkey poses possible threat to departmental security.

They put him on administrative leave without pay suspension.

It's the same thing they did to me.

We got to talk to this Berkey guy.

I don't want to put him in any danger.

Relax. Keep it under control.

That sure was lucky.

Luck had nothing to do with it, Officer Warfield.

Thelma, you're gorgeous.

Yeah? Mr. Berkey, we're with Internal Affairs. We'd like to speak with you.

About what?

Eli Tartarin.

I got nothing to say. You know you're in danger, don't you?

Yeah, well, I can handle it.

Just who the hell are you?

We told you, Internal Affairs.

Bull! Internal Affairs don't have the huevos to take on Eli Tartarin and the

operation. So whoever you are, get the hell out of here.

How'd it feel when your partner turned you in?

Leave me alone.

Never another cop. Not your commanding officer, not internal affairs.

The one guy who trusts you day in and day out with his life.

That's who finds a stash of dirty money in your locker.

I never even saw the money before they found it. Suddenly your own partner

even trust you. And he's a good cop, so he turns you in.

Yeah, we weren't best of friends until then.

And now, now you're so scared, you can't even leave your house.

How'd you know about that?

Because they did the same thing to me.

Friend Berkey's got visitors.

Let me hear them.

You got it.

So where are you guys from?

FBI, ATF, Justice Department, something like that. The point is we're here to

help you.

Well, if you're looking for bugs, the place is clean.

I retired everything apart.

Tell us about Tartarine.

Yeah.

Yeah, so I can have an early grave.

Anybody who leaves TCT and talks doesn't talk for long.

The only way to stop what's going on is to tell the truth.

Who's that with him?

Doesn't matter.

I want them both taken out now.

Truth.

Nobody's going to believe a rookie cop accusing the captain of planning the

assassination of the governor of this state.

That's what he's setting up.

Yeah. He's got the troops.

And they'll follow any order he gives.

So he's not even going to bother with the political process. He's just going

grab some power.

I say we go down and grab him by the throat.

What is it, Selma?

You're in a monitored environment, Captain.

Source? Northeast corner of the room, beneath the carpeting.

Room is bugged.

Impossible. I checked.

They killed him. Stay calm, Mesa. We're next.

Selma, analysis.

You're being ambushed by 14 PT officers.

Your present odds of survival are approximately 147 .93 to 1.

I'd rather take those odds on my feet.

Where'd

that come

from? Figured Perky didn't have any use for it anymore.

And when in Rome...

There. That's him.

The bastard's here.

You know him?

His name's Mace Warfield.

Let's just say we go way back.

Put an APB out on him.

Then what I want to know is... Who the hell is this other guy?

Soma, let's see the second floor plans.

Spot their surveillance cameras?

Why are we wasting time with roadmaps?

We were in one before.

All we do is walk across the street.

Same clothes, same cover, we walk in. We gotta know exactly what to do when we

get in the building.

That's why I'm doing this.

Have a little patience, huh, Mace?

Man, I'm running out of patience.

In project mode.

What are you going to do? Go toe -to -toe with Tartarin's army?

Not a bad idea.

The mission.

The mission is retrieval, not removal.

You never did understand the difference.

Okay, okay. I'll sit here like a good little schoolboy. Will you hurry up with

the homework already?

Just hold your glycofizz.

Captain, I'm picking up a broadcast transmission of which you should be

Thank you, Selma.

Put it on the TV.

Great Plains City's highly regarded police chief, Captain Eli Tartarine,

declared an all -points bulletin for two armed, endangered fugitives

impersonating police officers.

One has been identified as Mace Warfield.

Warfield, shown here in the surveillance photo, is wanted for multiple counts of

murder and aggravated assault.

If you have any knowledge as to their whereabouts, please contact the police.

Well, you've been made, Mace.

All these cops know what you look like.

All the more reason for us to get going.

Mace, will you sit down and shut up?

This won't take long.

Some of the plans.

Are these electrical boxes?

Yes, Captain.

And the ventilation ducts? What's the clearance?

36 by 29 centimeters.

And is this the master override?

Correct, Captain.

Right there.

Now move in on him.

Is that the best you can do?

That's the only angle, Captain.

What about this Warfield?

He won't be any problem. Just a pain in the rear. It's the other man.

What about him? Whoever he is, he's obviously working with Warfield.

And he's going after the same thing.

You want Warfield brought in?

Miss Warfield has all the tact and patience of a blind brown bull.

If we just wait, he'll stumble right into our hands.

He went to police headquarters, didn't he? Yes, Captain, he did.

Mace is his own worst enemy.

What do I do now?

If I may, Captain.

Certainly. At no time was your face seen in this recording. You have an

advantage over Officer Warfield in that your identity remains unknown.

You're right.

Time will be of the essence, however, as logic and probability parameters

indicate that Officer Warfield will soon be at the mercy of Eli Targerine's

tactical crisis team.

So where to, Captain?

This will do just fine, Warfield.

You've finally reached the end of the road.

My boys!

Personally, I think people worry way too much about dying.

Before I'm through with you, you're going to be begging for death.

From Time Magazine. You're doing a story on Captain Tartarine? You need an

appointment.

Look, if I could just get a couple of good quotes, I think we've got a shot at

making this a cover story.

Now, wouldn't that be great? We could show the entire nation what a fine job

he's doing here.

The captain's busy right now.

Take a seat.

When he's free, I'll buzz his office.

I guess that's the best we can do.

Um, restroom?

Around the corner.

Great interview, son.

Talk. Who's your partner?

Oh, well, well.

The big bad wolf.

Do I get to see my lawyer now?

Who's working with you?

Oh, come on, Eli.

You know I work alone.

Not yesterday, you didn't.

You got him on tape? You tell me.

Why are you so stupid?

Visual mode.

You signal me.

Captain, I have located Detective Warfield.

Sama, you're a genius.

Yes, Captain.

But this time the credit goes to Cindy.

I... May have misjudged her.

Cindy? Yes, in a manner of speaking.

She is still in Officer Warfield's pocket, and I can home in on her RF

emissions. Show me.

It's a sub -basement right below us.

We just have to get past the desk, Sergeant.

It's too bad we don't have Cindy.

Cindy?

What possible use could she be?

Nothing. It was just a thought.

And just what was that thought, Captain?

Selma?

Yes, Captain.

It's me.

You do Cindy very well.

I didn't know you could do that.

Well, I can.

It's too bad you're transparent.

Not necessarily.

Is there anything you can't do?

What is your plan, Captain?

Hi there.

Excuse me.

Yes, ma 'am.

I was wondering, could you tell me where I would go to report a stolen car?

Well, I... Take the elevator to the third floor.

Mm -hmm.

When you get out, turn right.

Go down the hall, take the second left.

Third on the left, second floor.

Oh, dear.

Where is that?

Maybe I'd better show you.

Oh, would you? Sometimes these big buildings can be so confusing.

Oh, they sure can.

Are you sure this is okay?

I deal with the public all day.

I say we let them wait.

Fact is, I get a five -minute break every hour anyway.

So we might as well take this time to get acquainted.

Nice work, Selma. Thank you, Captain.

Excuse me.

Excuse me. Where are you going?

Actually, I'm with Time Magazine.

Where's your pass?

Right here.

Selma, project the circulation vents.

It's going to be it. Which way, Selma?

Proceed 6 .3 meters at 010 degrees, Captain.

a letter to santa maybe he'll send it to you for christmas you know more than

once suspects have become so upset about what they've done they've actually

committed suicide while in custody yeah sure their hands are

tied too strange things happen the strangest thing is you pretending to be

I have a drug in my desk.

That'll speed things up.

Kind of a silly game anyways.

Kind of like playing walkers.

What the hell are you talking about?

Oh, you poor bastard. You've never played walkers?

Oh, it's a great team sport.

It teaches you some real important lessons.

Like if you're having a really bad day, you can always count on your friends.

Just shut up.

Amigo, you know, you've got a real problem.

You can't make up your mind.

Shut up.

Talk. Shut up.

Talk. Shut up. Talk.

Shut up. Talk.

Shut up.

I was

beginning to wonder when you'd show up.

What took you so long? Traffic was a bitch.

Easy. Come on.

I'm okay. I'm okay.

I'm seeing a hamburger that looks better.

It's a hamburger.

If we get out of here, I'll buy you one.

Someone coming, Captain.

Stay right there.

I think your partner's had a heart attack in here.

Really got to get better health here. What the hell's going on?

You want to meet my partner?

I'll be damned.

Lambert.

What you got there?

Carlock?

It's the end of the line, Eli.

I'm asleep.

Oh, I've waited a long time.

Put it down, Mace.

I've waited way too long for this. We had a deal.

The deal is off.

Deal's off.

Mace, I'm the senior officer here. Now put down the weapon!

You lied to Harderine by the power vested in me by the Ministry of Justice.

I'm sending you back to Tantral.

Transmission's on, Selma.

Hey, amigo.

You should have at least let me kick his butt.

All right.

Some of you better show me the shortcut out of here.

Yes, sir.

Charlie's before, but... Driving one?

It's better than... No, it's not.

But it's the next best thing.

Damn nice of you to let me try it out there.

And this too.

Well, I couldn't send you back without knowing what a hamburger is.

Watch it there, big fella.

Excuse us.

A couple of burgers, fries, two chocolate shakes.

Sit down.

You bet you're coming right up.

Oh.

Well, before I came here, I wasn't sure how things would be between us.

But I gotta tell you, this was just like old times.

Still a great team, huh?

Just like old times, all right.

Let's leave it at that.

Oh, come on, Dare, admit it. There's a few things that I can still teach you.

Such as?

My way eliminates so much paperwork.

That's why I've got Selma.

Got to hand it to you there. Cindy is no match for Selma.

Selma, here's to you.

Thank you.

Since you know everything, Selma, could you tell me how to get to the men's

room?

Well, yes, Detective Warfield.

Proceed bearing 133 degrees.

Over there.

I knew that.

What is it, Selma?

I realize that you are a human male, Captain.

Meaning?

If you would prefer my visual mode to appear more sexually aggressive, I'd be

happy to accommodate.

Selma, to tell you the truth, I like you just the way you are.

Why, thank you, Captain.

And you know something?

Now that it's all over and I'm sending him back, I guess Mace is basically

Yes, Captain.

What's that?

I believe it is a motorcycle.

A motorcycle?

Yes, Captain.

Your motorcycle.
