Sergeant's gonna be mad.

We should've been back on our beat 10 minutes ago.

It's not my fault, Jon.

Anybody who tries to buy Dodger tickets during their lunch hour

oughta have his helmet refitted.

I didn't think we'd have any trouble.

You know, uniform and everything.

I thought I could just step in and get 'em.

Nobody cuts in on line on Dodger fans.

Uniform or not.

So I found out.

Come on, I know a shortcut.

This is a shortcut?

Well, it's not really a shortcut.

How should I put it?

Tell me.

Well, every time I'm in this neighborhood

I always seem to take this street.

Wait up. Just wait up. Come on. Let's go.

Let's go. Come on.

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

Come on, come on.

Oh, what time is it? 10:30?

10:30.

Finish by 11:30.

Back by 12:00...back by 12:30.

Alright.

Did I see that?

What are you, crazy?

Don't do that in the street!

You're lucky it wasn't your head.

- What's your name? - Brian Caldera.

81522 Burlingame Boulevard.

555-3978.

Uh..

Do you think we could..

...keep this from my folks?

A phone call about illegal skate boarding

is a lot easier on your folks

than some of the calls I have to make.

What do you mean?

You know what I mean.

Listen, pal..

Let's keep it right from now on.

Uh...yes, sir.

Uh, there's my ride now. Can I go?

You're going to the beach, huh?

Yeah.

Okay.

But save the hot-doggin'..

...for the water.

Thank you.

Alright, alright. Alright, come on.

Let's get it over with.

It's not that same cop again.

Not youagain. What is this?

- A new beat? - Just passing through.

It looks like it's your lucky day, Mr. Billings.

May I see your driver's license?

Sure. Did, you, uh..

Did you see that crazy kid back there?

He almost cost me my insurance.

You were speeding.

Oh, no, wait a second, I was very much

under the limit.

Not for shaving.

Shaving?

What are you talking about? Shaving?

Oh, wow, that is incredible.

Look, uh... I'm in a big hurry.

Some of us do have to work for a living, you know.

No, you were driving at a speed unsafe for the conditions..

Like trying to drive while you're trying to shave.

What a crock!

You know where to sign.

Am I, uh.. Am I free to go now?

Yep. That covers it for now.

Can I have my license, please?

Don't I know him?

Yeah, we've nailed him before.

He's got a record that won't quit.

Uh-oh.

I can't believe this place.

Run me some interference.

Pull over!

Hey, slow down and stop!

I can't!

The key! The key! Turn it off!

'Brian, my good friend, we meet again.'

Who are your partners?

Scott.

I'm Donnie. She's Robin.

They made me come.

Liar!

Alright, knock it off.

Whose car is this?

My mom's.

Well, uh, does your mother know about

the safari to the beach?

I left her a note.

The radio said radical tides and rowdy surf.

Oh, well, that's different.

Now I understand.

- No, you don't. - Hey, watch the noise.

You kids think you know everything, don't you?

Well, I've hit the waves occasionally

and I've ripped up a lot of pavements on my skateboard.

Listen, uh, I'll make the call.

I suppose this means we don't get to go?

Not today, my darling.

Not for a long, long time, I'll bet.

You're breakin' my heart, you know that?

This is your 180 release

and, um, all you gotta do is take it to the yard.

And how much was that amount, please?

Uh, 22.50, made out to the towing company.

So that about wraps it up.

Thank you very much, officer.

You know, it was the fastest I've ever been.

Brand new asphalt on temescal canyon.

I was going 35, maybe 40.

Then...death wobble.

It was a clean break.

Bye, allowance.

Correct.

Hey.

Scott, Officer Poncherello is trying to be nice.

And he meets a lot of people who aren't nice.

Uh, briefing, everybody. Let's go.

What were you guys doing over on San Vicente today?

- Well, it wasn't a lunch break. - Too bad.

Lots of secretaries out jogging at lunch.

Okay, let's sit down.

You know, you guys must be psychic.

You know those joggers you're talking about?

They don't like to stop for lights.

And the kids in that neighborhood think

the streets were made to play in.

Tell us about it.

Now, you all know the stats in that area.

We're moving in with double shifts, high saturation.

Let's, um, try and slow 'em down. You know what I mean.

Sure. Speed trap.

No, Frank. High visibility.

Besides, neighborhood watch will be a nice change for you

instead of the freeways.

25.70. Plus a bonus..

Musta been a good one, Gerry.

Better than that.

Hey, congratulations.

Well, I haven't quite closed the deal yet

but it's almost there.

I should know any time now.

I, uh, I left your number

with my answering service.

Alright. I'm rootin' for you, Gerry.

Thank you.

Come on...deal.

Everybody's on to us.

Talk about high saturation.

Getraer wasn't kidding.

Tough working being a motor officer.

Looks like a woman in really good shape

might be able to handle that.

Yes, indeed, we are stationary at the moment.

Catch ya next break.

You're on.

Come on.

Let's get highly visible.

Yeah, let's do that.

Yeah, he's here. Just a second.

Gerry! Telephone.

I think it's the call you've been waiting for!

Ah, yes, hello?

Speaking.

Sure. Well, uh..

If that option isn't acceptable, I..

Yeah. I'll, uh..

I-I'll get back to you next month.

Yeah.

I'll get back to you.

Hey, is everything alright?

All wrong. I blew it.

Aw, Gerry, I'm sorry.

Well. I guess it's, uh..

Time to re-finance.

Hey, how about some coffee?

- Huh? - Uh...no, no. No time.

No time.

'Units in the vicinity of 19000 Amato Boulevard.'

'Report to an altercation between a motorist'

'and a tow truck driver.'

LA 15-7 Mary 3 and 4, uh..

We'll handle responding from Amato and Dayton.

'10-4 7, Mary 3 and 4.'

Come on, you're only begging.

You're begging for trouble, mister.

Why don't you be sensible? Take it up with the department.

I been doing that for 60 days

and I got an airplane to catch in 60 minutes!

Hey, look, hey, maybe we can figure this thing out

if you ride with me down to the impound lot, huh?

Will you just unlock the car?

You wanna tow the car to the impound lot?

You unlock it..

No, no, wait, hey! Hey, mister, wait!

Hey, don't! Come on! Hey, don't do that! Come on!

- What are you doing? - Burning my car.

- Burning your car? - It's my car.

There's the papers to prove it, see?

It's on my property and I am burning it.

- Well, that's crazy-- - Oh, ho ho ho ho!

You wanna know crazy..

I bought it for cash from a guy back east.

I can't get it registered

because I don't have the pink slip.

I got a permit that's expired, and they won't renew.

I've gotta catch a plane. The car won't start.

And he's here to impound it

because the department won't let me register it

because the guy won't send me the pink slip!

Now you tell me. What's crazy?

Burning your car is crazy.

Yeah, well, it's worthless now. I tell you what.

I'm gonna give you 50 bucks for it.

- You know, for junk. - Hey, hold it. Hold it.

It's worth more than 50. I'll give you 55.

- 60! - 62.

Do I hear 65?

- How much you got? - I'll tell you what.

I'm gonna make it an even hundred.

Cash now?

Give me 15 minutes. I'll be right back.

'No. Cash! Now!'

I only got 70 bucks on me!

- 70 once, 70 twice.. - 83!

Sold.

I'll go get my book.

Oh, uh...what am I gonna cite him for?

Burning my car without a permit.

Jon, look out!

- You okay? - Yeah.

This time I'm puttin' that guy off the road.

Pull over!

I don't believe it!

Step out of the car, please.

Well, now, isn't this a pleasant surprise?

You just moved into the neighborhood?

Step out of the car, please.

Yes, sir.

- Step to the rear of the car. - Pardon me?

Step to the rear of the car.

Listen, uh, step up on the sidewalk.

I'm gonna give you a field sobriety test.

I'm not gonna do anything. Alright, alright.

You're under arrest for drunk driving.

Take it easy.

Wanna run through the alphabet?

Oh, wait a second.

You're not gonna pull that drinking routine

because I'm not drunk!

Let's just say, uh, my nose gave me probable cause

and the way you were driving makes it a good case.

It's not gonna stick.

Well, uh, we'll just let the chemical test say.

- I'm not taking it! - You kidding?

I mean, if you refuse that's 6 months

without a driver's license.

Oh, come on.

Yeah, I know, I keep hearing about

all the juice you have. Now use it!

Look, the harassment complaint should be worth something now.

This, this case cannot go before a judge.

Alright. Alright. Uh..

Call me tomorrow.

Hi, honey.

No, no, e-everything's fine

but, uh, look, don't hold dinner

for me tonight, alright? I'm late nightin' it.

'Yeah, inventory hassles.'

She did, huh?

Well, you, uh, you give her a big kiss for me

and tell her daddy'll see her tomorrow.

Oh, I'd rather be with you too.

Alright. I'll, uh..

I'll see you when I get in.

Goodbye.

Listen, uh, I know I'm not your favorite person right now

but I heard you talking to your wife

'and if you have a family--'

Save it, huh? I don't wanna hear about it.

Then just see it.

I mean, it's people just like your own family

that get hurt when guys like you are on the road.

That's your story.

Let's go.

That's some loud thinking you're doing there, boy.

Yeah, well, people like Billings really put me in a bad place.

Oh, uh, thanks a lot for saving my life.

Just doin' my job.

Think we'd better have another talk with the younger set.

I'm afraid so.

- Hey, where are you goin'? - See you later.

- Don't tell my mom. - This cuts it for you, Scott!

It's alright.

You live a pretty charmed life, my dear.

Come on.

There you go.

- You'll be alright? - Yeah, I'm fine.

Okay.

Gonna take us downtown?

No.

You gonna tell our parents?

Uh-huh.

Hey, Jon, these beauties are really hot.

It's laminated board. Low-profile trucks.

The wheels are express. The fastest.

They're very hot.

I'm impressed.

Next time we have to snarf you guys up

you're gonna be in it up to your pockets.

Now take a hike home. On your feet.

- Hi. - Hey, what's up, you guys?

"You are assigned to washing detail

for unassigned motorcycles?"

- Eew! - Lotta good that'll do.

Yeah, but until tomorrow morning

I can pretend that I didn't get it. So let's go.

I was gonna put this in your box

but since I see you, I'll deliver it personally.

Category 2 complaint against Officer Jon Baker

by Gerald Billings.

'What's he complaining about? He tried to run me down today.'

I booked him for drunk driving.

Speed unsafe for conditions? Shaving?

Yeah, well, uh, we've met before.

He's met a lot of us.

Oh, really? Listen to this.

"Officer Baker discharged his authority

with unprofessional demeanor."

Knows all the right words.

"Officer's attitude was cocky, antagonistic

and Gestapo-like."

- Nasty, nasty. - Yeah, well, uh..

I knew what I was doing every second.

I was in complete charge of myself.

I read ya, Jon. Put it all down here.

Triplicate?

Mm-hmm. My desk. Monday morning.

Scratch one good evening.

Well, there is a bright note.

Your slow-down duty may be ending soon.

Yeah, well, not soon enough.

Uh, Poncherello, this was in the wrong box.

Ooh!

Hey, what's that?

Too close, Brian.

That wasn't close.

The next pass is gonna be close.

Why don't you put in the call?

Why don't you put in the call?

I'm not gonna tell anybody that we're being..

We're being pinned down by a toy airplane.

I can't wait for the peace and quiet of the freeway.

"Officers working the neighborhood watch

"slowdown campaign, hang in there.

"The stats are down for the first time in months.

"If you're gonna be off your beats, uh

keep the breaks to 10 minutes."

Okay, that's all. Hit the streets.

- Coffee, buddy? - Yeah.

- You buying? - Sure.

- What about me? - Hey, fellas.

Next time you're pinned down

by enemy aircraft, give us a call.

- Oh, by all means. - Yeah, call us.

- We'd be glad to back ya up. - Alright.

Jon, can I speak to you a minute?

Um...you know that guy who clipped you?

- Uh, Billings? - Yeah, what's up?

Well, you can kiss your deuce arrest goodbye.

They're gonna cop him for reckless.

Oh, no way.

Look, I've seen a lot of cases like this go down the tubes

and this one is headed in that direction.

- Yeah, well, not this-- - Hey, Jon, ease off.

Look, it's out of our hands.

Besides, there are, uh, lots more like him out there.

Yeah. That's what this is all about.

One more pass through, and let's check in.

Good enough.

Oh.

Land sakes! Are you alright, child?

- I think so. - You're gonna pay for this.

You're gonna pay for all this, do you hear?

'What's your name?'

It's not all his fault.

Stay outta this, lady. I'll take care of it.

What's your name? What's your name?

What's your name?

- Hey, just a minute now. - Listen..

It's against the law for me to do that

so I know it's against the law for you to do it.

This has happened before. I want that kid's parents' name.

Yeah, okay, we'll take care of it, alright?

You betyou will!

'Let's go. Right away.'

Right here. Now.

Did I tell ya just to hear myself talk? No!

I told you yard rats to lay low for a while.

It was an accident.

I don't care. No more breaks.

Now you stay here and don't move.

He's blowin' his stack!

Well, I've had it with those kids, you know.

Yeah but he's breathin' fire for justice.

Listen, we get off in 10 minutes.

Well..

It's all over now.

LA 15-7 Mary 4. Contact 7 Charles.

Have her 1198 at Elmer Rio drive

and Le cruisedrive for transportation.

'10-4, 7 Mary 4.'

- Okay, come on. - Yeah, this way.

This time you're gonna learn something.

It's about time something like this was done.

Okay, listen. This is what we're gonna do.

Okay. See you there later.

What a wipeout!

This isn't what it's like when people go to jail on TV.

What arewe doing?

We're waiting.

I'm waiting and you're waiting.

So wait.

Okay, ladies and gentlemen

the masters arrived.

- Alright, everybody out. - What's going on?

- Come on. - Come here, you.

What are we doing here? What are you..

- What's going on? - Just come over here.

- What's going on? - Yeah.

That's what I wanna know.

You'll find out.

Alright, everybody listen. We called your parents.

Aw! Aw!

Hey, hey, come on now.

Your folks and all of us care about you.

We want you to be safe.

They also agreed we could do what we want with you.

What may that be?

"What may that be" is

Alright, here we go. Put your helmet on.

Let's go. Helmet on. There you go.

Helmet on. Let's go.

Helmet on. Helmet on. Ha ha ha!

- You guys ready? - Yeah.

- Alright, come on. - Alright, come on.

Show you how.

Might be a little slow at this.

Hey, hey.

It's the style that counts.

This oughta be good.

Bravo.

- How'd you like that, huh? - Not bad.

Hey, that's pretty trick, partner.

- 'Not bad, huh?' - Alright. Alright.

Think you're so great, let's try some downhill stuff.

Alright, let's try some downhill stuff.

See, all it takes is a little concentration.

Not bad.

Well, this is the last day of neighborhood watch.

How do you feel?

I'll tell ya..

I'm kind of itchy for a long piece of freeway.

I know what you mean. I know what you mean.

What'd you say? Risk? It's an opportunity.

Every unit's top of the line. Are you kidding?

Besides, I gotta get rid of this junk.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Just right up to date. Yeah.

Sure.

'All units in the vicinity of Sunset and Mandeville'

'possible injury. Hit and run. Ambulance rolling.'

LA 15-7 Mary 3 and 4, rolling from Sunset and Brooktree.

'10-4, 7 Mary 3 and 4.'

Alright, folks. Step back, okay?

Just lie still, sir. Don't move. Alright?

Did you see who did it?

Yeah, that's his car.

- And he ran that way. - Alright.

Just keep your head back. Stay still.

It's Billings. He's been drinkin'.

He'll use a stolen car alibi.

He'll make it back home and call it in stolen.

Unless I get there first.

Taxi!

Hey, Billings!

Hold it!

LA 15-7 Mary, 310-97, third and Idaho.

A 2001 suspect.

'15-7 Mary, 10-97 for 2001 suspect.'

Get back! Get back! Leave me alone!

Leave me alone.

Listen, you can't run anymore.

I'm tellin' ya, just..

- 'Leave me alone.' - Hey.

Wait a minute, man.

Hey, listen, don't panic!

I...I'm just so tired of running.

Will you just..

Please help me? Please help me.

'Please.'

It's alright.

Hi, I thought you guys would like to know

that, uh, jogger hit/run victim is gonna be alright.

Hey, that's great. Makes your day, huh?

- Yeah. - Hey, Poncherello.

There's a kid on the phone here who wants

to know if you can tail tap the high ramp?

- Oh, sure! - 'Hey, Frank.'

Frank, what is tail tapping the high ramp?

Oh, I'll show you.

It's like, uh, doing a 180 in mid-air.

Frank, that's a 360.

Yeah?

Well, that's even harder!
