Alright!

What's the matter, man?

Don't you trust me?

Sure, amigo,I trust you.

I just want to make sure you didn't pay me too much.

I got a new connection at the marina.

Yeah?

He could use a big buy.

When?

Friday.

You're on.

Uh!

Sindy may be the best trail biker of the bunch

but if you pick her

your sergeant's gonna fry you for it.

Ah, he's going to ask for volunteers

and I'll make my own selections.

Look, it might be Sindy's only chance to..

...ride a motor, you know?

I mean, she's good at it she wants it, so she's in.

Hey, Jon, what happened yesterday?

I noticed some scratches on your motor.

Oh, yeah. Well, uh, I took a little off-road safari.

Hurt yourself?

Hurt myself? No, just my pride.

Ha ha! Pride goeth before a fall, right?

Where is she?

Ah, she'll be here.

Okay, you want to settle down, please?

For the uninformed among you we've been getting

uh, complaints from Hillside residents

about illegal off-road motorcycle riders.

'They're ripping up fire trails'

'damaging a watershed'

'creating noise.'

But most importantly

causing an extreme fire hazard.

Now, these outlaw bikers have been getting away with it

for a reason we're all aware of.

Our street machines are just too heavy

to follow them cross-country.

Now, Officer Baker has come up

'with a possible solution to the problem.'

I've taken it up with division..

...and they've given us the green light

on a pilot program.

'A special trail team'

'consisting of three officers.'

Now, some of you are more into trail biking than others

so, uh, I'm going to leave this on a voluntary basis. Uh..

Uh, Baker, this is your detail.

- 'Pick your men.'

Okay, uh..

...I'm gonna pick my officers for this, uh, trail team.

Hey, Jon, how about me?

Uh, yeah, just a minute, Grossie, alright?

Excuse me.

It's going to consist of, uh

two other officers besides myself. Uh..

Of course, I'm going to use my partner Officer Poncherello.

First time we met, I was on a trail bike, right?

Uh, wrong, the first time we met

you had just fallen off a trail bike.

Uh, we'll read it in your memoirs.

Would you get on with it so I can adjust

the duty roster, hmm?

Okay, I'm just, uh, going to try to decide.

I have my own steel-plated boots.

Well, Grossie, uh--

Uh, do you have anything against taking Grossman?

N-no, not really. Not at all.

Okay, Grossman and Poncherello.

Okay, that's it. Dismissed.

Hi.

Uh, did I miss anything?

Sindy, you missed the whole shot.

You mean you picked already?

Getraer didn't give him any choice.

Hey, Sindy.

You know..

...you might have had a chance to be on this trail bike team.

If only you'd been there.

Jon picked a motor officer.

I'm not a motor officer.

You're a darn good trail biker though.

Yeah. So are you.

Look, I was late. I blew it.

Have fun.

Mon capitaine.

What time do we start?

Oh, uh, we'll have a good workout tomorrow, okay?

Yeah, I'll be ready.

Pardon?

Oh, yeah. Okay, Grossie. Thank you.

Look, Sindy, uh..

I mean, I stalled as long as I could.

I mean, you were supposed to have your hand up

the minute Getraer mentioned trail team.

I know, I know. But I ran into a TA on Pico.

I had to stop to help.

Alright. I know how much this assignment meant to you.

I know you're disappointmented.

Look, Jon, you tried

and I'm grateful.

It's a real big disappointment, but..

...you know what?

I'm going to be around awhile.

Okay.

See you later, huh?

You know that shakedown Jon mentioned tomorrow afternoon?

Yeah. What about it?

Out at Indian Dunes..

...in case you want to watch.

Okay.

From now on, I'll be the bad guy

and you guys try and catch me, alright?

Cops and robbers?

Patrolmen and suspect, has more dignity.

- Hi, fellas. - Well, I'll be a--

Careful, don't say anything I'll have to agree with.

Couldn't stay away, huh?

Well, we are on our own time.

You don't mind if I ride with you, do you?

No, that'd be fine. I've laid out a pretty tough course.

The kind of thing we're going to go up against as a team, okay?

- Okay. - Okay. Uh...let's roll.

engines revving]

Grossie, are you hurt?

Nah.

Oh.

I don't know what happened.

Look, I missed it. You mind doing it again?

I got a rule, no encores.

Oh.

Hey, how come you're limping?

Banged my hip again.

Old football injury.

Don't worry. I'll be alright in a minute.

Hey, listen, you guys go ahead. Uh, we'll catch up.

Look, Grossie, don't try to finish the course

if you're hurt.

I'll walk it off in a minute. No sweat.

Come on, let's lift this up.

Okay, that's 30 bucks you owe me.

And two days, you work for me next week.

A deal is a deal.

Just convince Getraer, and she's in.

Trust me.

In fact...you could've trusted me in the first place.

What do you mean?

I know how much this means to Sindy.

Before you came to me, I was planning

to take a birdie on my own.

For nothing?

You're going to accept my money?

Never look a gift horse in the mouth.

'Hey, Grossie?'

How's the hip?

Secondary arthritic inflammation

of the ball joint.

It's transient. It kinda comes--

It comes and goes.

Yeah.

Look, Grossie..

...this assignment means a lot to me.

But if you're not telling the truth..

I'll show you the bruise.

You're telling the truth.

Hey, Sindy!

Here's your stuff. You better get dressed.

Thanks.

Look, I don't know what was in Grossman's head.

He withdrew, and that's volunteer's privilege.

We have other motor officers to replace him.

There's not one female motor officer

in the state of California.

Oh, Sindy's a good officer.

She's been riding trail bikes since she was 16 years old

and if she would've been at briefing I would've picked

her over Grossman in the first place.

You just can't resist the lady, right?

Yeah, this is the breakthrough she's always wanted.

Sarge, this is special duty.

Doesn't change her status.

I didn't pick her because there was anything shewants.

It was because I thought she was the best one for the job.

Look, if she..

If she makes a mistake..

...people are going to magnify it.

They're going to come down on you and her andme.

You're sticking her neck way out.

She volunteered.

Look, Jon, I want this program to work.

It's already attracting attention.

- I want it to work. - So do I.

Look, if you think there's anything that I'm doing

that's gonna foul it up, I'll step down, alright?

Take me to your leader.

Well, around here, fella, I'm the leader.

Don't be frightened, earthman.

We mean you no harm.

Holy mackerel!

You creatures are ugly.

'Come on, Sindy, let's go.'

See you, sarge.

Good luck.

Thanks.

I never felt so rotten in my life.

I'm in the pits.

I got to dieto get better.

Big deal. You've been there before.

What are you two doing just sitting around?

Sheila's coming down, man.

She's hurting.

Had yourself a little party, right?

Hey, man, there's a time to relax.

Verne, we make angel dust.

We sellangel dust!

We don'tuse it!

Now, if you can't take care of your old lady, split!

Alright, alright.

Can she hear me?

'Huh?'

Can she hear me?

Yeah, you're bringing her down, man.

Verne..

...we got a good thing going, man.

This is a great location!

No cars, no cops, nobody.

We're making a bundle, man.

I just don't want no PCP freak..

...blowing my deal.

No more parties, huh?

L-let's..

Let's go back to work.

You want to make another batch, baby?

Okay. We're gonna keep in touch by walkie

Now be careful of the area.

It's full of gopher mounds and mud holes, what not.

Not exactly the place for a Sunday outing, huh?

Unless you happen to be a mountain goat.

Yeah. Alright, now, you take the foothills.

I'll take Rabbit Canyon.

Sindy, you scout the valley, alright?

Okay.

Let's go.

You and your cycle buddies are gonna pay for this, mister.

Put your hands up!

Get over here before I turn my dogs on you.

Look, uh...I'm a police officer.

Don't look like any cop I ever saw.

Come on, quiet the dogs down.

Lower the gun.

That's it.

Now listen, why don't you tell me what happened?

My name's Officer Jon Baker.

Them bums again is what happened.

Roaring around here.

Upsetting my dogs, running over my chickens.

And just now they tore through my garden.

Look at my lettuce patch.

Listen, suppose you had fired that gun and hit somebody?

Well, it's only loaded with rock salt.

Rock salt?

I mean, rock salt can blind people, wound people.

'And you, you're the one that would be arrested.'

Well, I have a right to protect my property.

No, not with extreme force. Not with a gun.

I mean, to protect your life, yes.

But the law says to protect your property, no.

Well, what am I supposed to do, let 'em wreck the place?

Hey, look, we'll try to prevent that, alright?

But don't use that gun, I mean, you're gonna

'wreck your whole life.'

Okay, which way did they go?

Where they always go.

Up in the hills.

Next time I'm gonna set my dogs on 'em.

Next time, call the police, alright?

Well, that'll get the old juices flowing, won't it?

Let's hit that slope to the east there

and do some off-camber jumps.

Okay. Let's go.

You're in a restricted area.

May I see some identification, please?

Ah, you should know that this is my land.

I own all 20 acres of it.

It's beautiful. Congratulations.

Some ID, please.

I'm Walter Dunlap. Does that ring a bell, officer?

- Councilman Dunlap. - That's right.

And if anybody's trespassing here, it's you.

I didn't say trespassing, councilman.

Identification, please.

You're begging for trouble, you know that?

To tell you the truth, Mr. Dunlap, I don't have to beg.

Trouble seems to have a way of finding me.

Now, please, let's have your identification.

Alright.

And in return, I'll take your name and badge number.

They'll both be on a citation, sir.

You have no right to do this.

And you have no right to ride in a restricted area.

You're disturbing the animals natural to the area.

You're ripping up the watershed.

You could start a fire right now.

You could cause a flash flood when it rains..

...on your property, Mr. Dunlap.

I don't think you want that.

I'm going to fry you for this, fella.

I promise you that.

With all respect, councilman..

...if I can be fried for doing my job

I'd gladly roll over when I'm done on one side.

Now, please.

Find a proper area to ride.

That's cruel. Harry, stop it!

Hey, that's enough there!

Hey, what are you?

Something out of "Star Wars?"

You're a policeman?

Yeah, highway patrol.

I want you to know if I'd have known what kind of a guy he was

I never would have come out with him.

Listen, uh, you're both riding in a restricted area.

You have some kind of identification?

You know a rider destroyed a woman's truck garden

not too long ago. Wasn't too far from here.

Actually tore up her lettuce patch.

I was there. I told him not to do it.

- Hey, now, look-- - Hey, now. Wait a minute.

You have a score to settle with that ranch woman.

Don't you want my name and address?

In...case you need me later.

Uh, right, yeah. Um..

Why don't you both follow me over to the ranch, alright?

Okay.

Somebody's coming a little too close.

Come on, Verne.

Let's go run him off.

He's down there.

'Looks like he's decked out'

'for a motocross tournament.'

With a badge and a gun?

That's a CHP helmet, pal.

A cop out here?

Like the sheriff's off-road team in san Diego.

We better get him out of here, man.

Cool it.

Let's see what he does first.

Hey, Coby, that's a chick!

A she-bear.

Let's lead the little lady out of here.

Sindy, what happened? How'd you spill?

I didn't spill. I was resting.

Oh.

You and the bike, huh?

Okay, okay, I was chasing a biker

and he shot me a front-wheel kickoff.

Ooh, a very old and very dirty trick.

Well, he took me by surprise.

Better let me get a look at that ankle. It might be..

Ponch.

Look..

...my feelings are hurt

I'm mad at that guy..

...and my pride is shattered.

So don't talk to me about my ankle.

Okay.

Look, uh, how would you guys like to grab a bite to eat?

Not tonight, Jon.

Okay, I'm gonna turn these in now.

I'll see you later, alright?

- So long. - See you.

How's your...you know what?

Hurts like the devil.

But I'll put some heat on it when I get home.

Think you can walk out?

I don't know. I walked in.

Yeah. We were lucky we weren't seen.

Well, what do you suggest?

'Whoo! Whoo!'

Make way for the trail team express!

Whoo! Whoa!

Hi, sarge. You know, just feeling good.

Having a good time.

Ha ha! You know.

Would you like a ride?

No? Alright. Okay. Uh..

I'm just gonna put the chair back.

Ha ha! See you.

Okay, milady.

Dinner...is served.

'You know, I really could've done all this myself.'

But I appreciate the help. Thanks.

Hey, when it comes to cooking frozen dinners

I'm an expert.

How's the ankle?

Almostready for the disco swing.

Funny, I never really looked at your naked foot before.

It's so soft, so pink..

...so swollen.

I know.

It's beginning to loosen up now, though.

so I'll soak it while we eat.

And, uh, I'll walk it off later, that's all.

Expecting anyone?

Hey.

- Hi. It's only me. - Hi, Jon.

Sindy invited me over for a bite to eat.

Then I'm going on home.

Yeah. How bad is it, Sindy?

How bad is what?

Come on. You've been trying to hide that limp all afternoon.

Jon..

...she took a little spill.

Anybody could take a spill.

Even Grossman?

Grossman?

Pretending he doeshave a limp?

Pretending?

Look, Sindy.

We all wanted you on the team.

I mean, that's the bottom line.

But how bad is it?

I'll be riding tomorrow, no sweat.

Yeah, maybe.

Let me see you walk.

Are you worried about me

or how the team makes out tomorrow?

Oh, come on. Don't ask that kind of question.

I have to consider both of 'em.

I mean, we're playing for pretty high stakes out there.

See, it's the game, the team.

Just because your ego's involved, that's why.

Okay, maybe it is my ego, alright?

But maybe your ego's affecting your judgment.

Jon, wait a minute! If you think for one minute--

Time!

Alright? A little time.

It's only when someone doesn't have enough ego

that he gets in trouble trying to find it.

'Now, what's wrong with a little ego?'

- That's right. - Jon's entitled.

The trail team was his idea.

Youon the trail team was his idea.

And all of Sacramento is watching.

And, Jon..

...if Sindy didn't have a healthy ego, she--

Alright, hold it. Okay, I admit it. Ego.

If I can't pull my own weight tomorrow

I won't be there.

Okay.

Now, for my friend Sindy Cahill.

Let me see you walk, okay?

Okay. Now will you go with me to the doctor?

Let me get a slipper and a sock.

Grossman backed out so I could take the assignment, didn't he?

Well, uh, he and Ponch thought that was a secret

so, uh...don't thank him, huh?

Fine thing!

I sweat and slave in the kitchen

and she takes off with another guy.

An 851, huh?

How's the ankle?

- Hot stuff. - Alright.

No heavy action or you call for help today, okay?

Okay.

Jon, thanks for not replacing me.

Oh, don't thank me. Thank the doctor.

I mean, one wrong word

you'd have been sitting at a desk.

Right. I keep forgetting you have a heart of stone.

That female chipper almost run Cobe up a tree

till he-he lucked out and got away.

Funny. What a scene.

I'll dump you both if you don't knock it off.

Hey, everything's cool, Cobe.

What you doing, anyway?

What am I doing?

You mean, what am I doing with my muffler, Cobe?

Yeah.

Well, I'll tell you.

I'm fixing a little surprise for that she-bear.

I got my spark arrester all rigged

so that all you do is just reach down and pull it off.

Remember what you said about a nice, quiet operation, Cobe?

Now, don't let a little chipper fluff

get under your skin.

Oh, she'll be coming after me again.

Only this time I got a hot little surprise for her.

Coby, don't fire up in here!

The ether might explode!

So it's you again.

Oh, you've really blown it this time, buddy.

I'm gonna haul you up on charges.

Harassment first and then assault with intent.

I want to show you something, Mr. Dunlap. Come with me.

Hey, he doesn't have to.

No, no, I'll handle him, honey.

I'm gonna squeeze you dry, fella.

I'm asking you in a nice way, Mr. Dunlap. Follow me.

What are you trying to pull here?

I want you to see where you'd gone if I hadn't dumped you.

You didn't bother to check so you might have jumped

on another biker or some kids having a picnic.

But in this case, you would only have killed yourself.

And maybe your lady friend.

I don't know what you're trying to prove, Mr. Dunlap, but--

Now, listen, officer--

No, you listen, Mr. Councilman

I find you riding in a restricted area one more time

you're gonna end up downtown. Is that understood?

Hey, Cobe, it's mama bear.

Trail 3, this is Trail 5.

'I've located an abandoned farmhouse'

with bike tracks around it.

This is Trail 3. Uh, what's your 10

A little valley west of the Wagner Ridge.

10-4, Trail 5. Just maintain surveillance. I'm on my way.

Is anybody in there?

She might have radioed for help. I'm cutting out.

Well, what about Sheila and me?

It's gonna take me another five minutes to fix that wheel.

'Five minutes?'

I'll be long gone in five minutes.

You split when you can.

You got our stash?

- Somebody's coming! - Alright, I'm ready.

Come on, let's go, let's go.

Hang on.

Are you okay?

Hey, come on. Why don't you get up?

Here, let me help you.

There you go. Take it easy.

Can you handle it? I'll get him.

No, you handle it. He's mine.

Okay, put your left hand on your head.

Angel dust.

Devil dirt, huh?

Let's go.

Look, you know, we're supposed to be a team.

We're supposed to work together.

I could've helped either one of you

but nobody called me, nobody asked for assistance.

You both just took off on your own.

Well, where were you, brave captain?

Well, I was, uh, busy.

'And you didn't want to stop'

'to use your radios'

because you might have lost your suspects.

And that would look bad.

Particularly, when you're out here

with a man as efficient as I am.

I think you're both having another ego attack.

I'm glad I'm so good.

I don't have that problem.

- 'Yeah.' - 'Hey, officers.'

I just thought you'd like to know

division is very pleased with your work.

Rates commendable incident report.

The girl turned state's evidence

so, uh, we got the guys..

and a couple of buyers dead-bang.

So I guess that means all loose ends are tied up, huh?

Uh, not quite.

Councilman Dunlap wants to see you in my office.

Why does it always have to rain on my parade, huh?

Good afternoon.

It was.

It was wrong, what I did up in the hills the other day.

I, uh, I should have admitted it then..

...to you and to myself.

But the girl was there.

My wife divorced me about a year ago.

I'm moving towards 50.

That's half a century, you know.

Oh, it's, uh, it's ego, that's what it is.

I've been..

I've been trying to prove I'm just as good now

as I've always been.

Can you, uh..

I can empathize with that, councilman.

Empathize, that's it.

That's, that's exactly the right word.

Oh, you sure know how to blow a beautiful exit.

Wow.

Dig that Mona Lisa.

'I wonder who she's waiting for.'

Oh, uh..

...probably some, uh, good-looking young dude

with an irresistible personality, charm, macho.

Hi, Jon!

Excuse me.
