I am a maximum efficiency
robotization-vector

but youcan call me Merv.

We're the Freeway Angels.

We're making a citizen's arrest
on you, Chester.

Citizen's arrest?

You're messing
with a Scorpio, lady!

Are you telling me
that there's a break

in Merv's energy

- Yeah.
- He's a walking time-bomb.

'15, Mary 6 and 7, LA.'

'Citizen's report
of a reckless driver'

'northbound 405
from Reseda Boulevard.'

'Vehicle reportedly in excess
of 90 miles per hour'

'and using all lanes
of traffic.'

Come on, baby!

LA 15, Mary 6 and 7

we have a major accident
on the access road

'leading to the Ventura freeway
between Harper and Whitlock.'

Send on three ambulances,
two tow-trucks

and one fire-engine.

'10-4, Mary 6 and 7.'

Alright, don't try to move.
Just keep still.

An ambulance will be
here any minute, alright?

I...I guess I would have
been better off

paying a speeding ticket.

- You got that right.
- Yeah.

Merv! Merv?
Where's Merv?

Merv!

I don't know where..

What's wrong?

Uh,
I can't find Merv.

He was in the back of the van,
but now, he's gone.

'Over here, Dr. Rutledge.'

What's that
over there?

Oh, well, well,
that's Merv.

'Merv?'

Oh, Merv, uh..

You need
an ambulance over here?

No. An erector set.
Take a look.

What is that thing?

I am not a thing.

I am a maximum efficiency
robotization-vector

series one.

But you can
call me Merv.

Merv, a

A laser scan shows
no damage to my memory banks

sensor paths,
or integrated circuits.

Binary systems off .03

due to horizontal position.

Uh, Tom. Tom?

Give me a hand here, please.
Let's get him upright.

Easy. Easy.

Easy. Easy.

There we go.

Now..

...is that better, Merv?

Binary systems,
now functioning

at capacity.

Good. Good.

I'm, uh,
I'm Dr. Rut-Rutledge

with, uh,
Space Ten Industries.

Uh, we're just on our way
to deliver Merv

to, uh..

...the, uh..

California Highway Patrol.

California Highway Patrol?

Central area.

'That's us.'

Well,
congratulations.

Merv is on loan-out
to various institutions

to demonstrate
his, uh, time

and money-saving capabilities.

We think that you'll
find, that with Merv

you'll be able
to cut your cost

and manpower
by as much as 50%.

Of course, there'll always be
a need for motorcycle officers.

Well, uh,
if it's alright with you

we're late for a meeting
with, uh..

...Sergeant...Getraer?

We know him well.

Well...let's get
back onboard, Merv.

Can you beat that?

Cut manpower by 50%.

You heard him.

What does a robot
know about motorcycles?

The first
internal combustion engine

motorized bicycle

was built in 1885.

'It had a single cylinder,
264cc'

4-stroke engine
at 700 RPM.

Have a good day.

Here you go.

Here we go.

Come on, man!

Hurry!
Come on, move it!

'Come on.
Move it.'

Hey! Hey! Get back here!

Hey!

Hey, you girls
looking for some fun?

We got business
to take care of.

Now, well, we'll take
care of it, Blue.

Don't worry.
Hey, what do you say, huh?

Huh?

Why don't you pull over?
We'll talk about it.

Alright!

My name is Chester.
This is my buddy, Blue.

- I'm Emily.
- 'Hey.'

- Sylvia.
- Hey.

We're the Freeway Angels.

We're making a citizen's arrest
on you, Chester.

Citizen's arrest?

- 'No, we're not crazy.'

And we're not blind, either.

We saw you run
that stop sign back there.

You could have
killed somebody.

And you two chicks

are going to arrest me?

That's right.

And what's to keep me
from just getting

into my van
and driving off?

For one, those two officers
over there.

We always radio the CHP
before pulling anyone over.

First,
a know-it-all robot..

...and now,
the Freeway Angels.

I got a feeling
it's going to be a long day.

Look at it this way,
partner.

Another 20 years, you'll
be eligible for retirement.

What's the problem?

- I was just driving along--
- This man--

Alright! Alright!

One at a time.
Please.

Would you turn
that radio off?

Yeah. Sure.

Alright, you wait here.

Alright, what happened?

- This man ran a stop sign.
- There was no stop sign there.

'He came this close
to hitting another car.'

No way! You don't know
what you're talking about.

- You're lying, man.
- Alright, enough.

Cool it. Okay?

Emily, I know
you and your angels

are just trying
to give us a hand

'but I explained it
to you.'

We can't issue a ticket
for something

we didn't
see with our own eyes.

What you're saying is,
unless the streets are littered

with bodies and fenders,
you're not interested.

What we're saying is,
we have an entire army

of highway patrolmen.

We don't need a bunch
of untrained amateurs

getting in our way.

I've got some news for you

General Nelson.

Your army is losing the war.

If it's alright
with you guys

we'll be on our way.

Let's book.

Hold it.

Step back here, please.

What's wrong?

I noticed
your registration's expired

'and look at these taillights.'

They're both broken.

Step over here and let me see
your driver's license.

Take it out
of the wallet.

Ponch, I got a feeling
there's something in this van

we should know about.

Yeah? What makes
you think that?

His buddy's acting
kind of hinky.

Like he'd give a million bucks
to be someplace else but here.

Well, he's jumpy
about something

but if you're thinking
about searching

the van, forget it.

- Ponch.
- Hey.

Stopping somebody
for a traffic ticket

doesn't give you
probable cause for a search.

But I've got this feeling.

Bobby, the court
doesn't accept your feelings

'as admissible evidence.'

Of course, if the owner
gives you permission

to look inside,
that's another story.

Well, what do you say?
You giving us permission?

No way, man.

That's the law, pal.

'I have been asked to examine
the following subject.'

Subject is 5'7.

Density scan, equivalent
of 135 pounds and muscular.

Fair skin,
blond hair, blue eyes.

Shifty look.

Must run in the family.

Criminal type,
no question about it.

Place your hand
on my video grid

palm flat.

What?

My video grid,
palm flat.

According to the fingerprints
on file

subject is
Bruce Penway Nelson

'age, 23.'

'Currently, a cadet
at the CHP academy'

'temporarily assigned
to Central'

'for advanced field-training.'

'No criminal record,
outstanding warrants'

'or behavioral problems'

'except
for an isolated incident'

'in high school.'

That's enough, Merv.

Involving a young lady

by the name of Samantha.

'Merv.'

'And a white mouse, the subject'

'placed in her locker.'

I was just trying
to get her attention.

You may remove
your palm.

Thanks a lot, pal.

Don't mention it.

'That's just a small example'

of Merv's many talents.

As you get
to know him better

and...we hope, uh,
to love him.

'Uh, we're sure that you'll
learn to appreciate'

his many abilities
to sort through

billions
of visual points

to analyze
thousands of voices

and to solve
an unlimited number of problems.

What happens
if he has to change a tire?

Or when his batteries
run dry?

I do not run
on batteries.

I utilize a new-breed
electromagnetic

isotope-6 pellet

'which puts out
enough energy'

'to light, heat,
and air condition'

'a 40-story office building'

'for an entire year.'

That's a lot of power.

Oh, uh, Merv is state-of-the-art
in micro power.

But he's just as safe
as uh..

...your average
pocket-calculator.

Why is he looking at me
like that?

I think he likes you.

- 'Blow him a kiss.'
'

Merv?

Take a memo
to Sergeant Getraer.

"Joe, as per your request

"I checked out complaints

"of illegal parking
along Palmgate

"and found none
of the vehicles

"in violation
of current restrictions.

Sign it..

"...Officer
Arthur Lee Grossman."

'Oh, PS'

"What are the chances
of my borrowing two days

against accumulated
vacation time?"

Sorry, according to the records

you have no
accumulated vacation-time.

Just deliver
the memo, Merv.

So, Officer Grossman

your bike is ready
to roll again.

Oh..

What was wrong
with it, Harlan?

Why don't you ask
your friend there?

Great!
Just walk all over me.

What's wrong with Harlan?

He's jealous
about you-know-who.

Hey, Webster, anything
on those recent stereo

No, not yet,
but sarge says

he wants us
to keep our eyes open

for gypsy stereo-dealers

offering bigdiscounts.

Officers Poncherello
and Nelson.

You are to report immediately
to Sergeant Getraer.

How does he do that?

My memory banks

are instantly activated

by voice-recognition analysis.

You had to ask, huh?

Hey, Merv.

Yes?

Uh, you help
everyone else out.

How about giving me
a little..

...hand
with this academy homework?

Homework, an assignment
given to a student

to be completed
bythe student.

Thanks a lot, pal.

You don't have to get
mad about it.

"Freeway Angels appeal
to law-abiding citizens.

"Freeway Angels declare war
against traffic violators.

"Freeway Angels
demandrecognition.

"Freeway Angelschallenge

the California Highway Patrol."

You guys have any idea what

we're going to do about this?

Why don't we just
close them down?

How? It's not as if they're
running some illegal operation.

And they're not exactly trying
to help little kids

cross the street.

They're out there,
trying to arrest people.

And that's what
worries me, sarge.

One day, they're going to try
to arrest some hothead..

'...and end up getting hurt.'

Now, that'swhat worries
the captain.

And when the captain worries..

...I lose sleep..

...and when I lose sleep..

- We have nightmares.
- We have nightmares.

Ah! Exactly.

I'm glad we understand
one another.

Now, uh, why don't you two
go out there

and keep me
from losing my sleep, hmm?

"Home of the Freeway Angels."

Why don't we just
forget them, Chester?

Yeah. Maybe I should just forget
about these,too, huh?

Well, aren't you?

Yeah..

...but not
them chicks.

My sign's a scorpion,
Blue..

...and when you mess
with a scorpion..

...you get stung.

Yeah?

You better put
your stinger away for now.

No sweat.
We got plenty of time.

Let's do some business.

Over there.

I'm going next-door
for a sandwich.

Can I get
you anything?

- No, thanks.
- Okay.

I think I just
lost my appetite.

- Emily.
- I know. I know.

You've got
the building surrounded.

You want us to come out
with our hands up.

You've been seeing
too many old movies.

We just want
to talk to you.

If it's about stopping
our patrols, forget it.

What do you girls think
you're accomplishing?

We girls,
Officer Nelson?

We girls want
to show people

that we're concerned
about what happens out there.

They're our streets,
you know.

We don't want to see them
turned into battlefields.

Have you any idea
how many men, women

'and children
are killed or crippled'

every year because
of irresponsible drivers?

Any idea?

That's our business, remember?

It's our business too.

And if just one driver
slows down

because of the Freeway Angels..

...we've accomplished
something.

Can't argue
with that, Emily.

And I'm in favor
of neighborhood watches.

Then, what are
we doing wrong?

It's not the same.

Neighborhood watchers
keep their eyes open

and if they see something,
they notify the police.

We always call the CHP.
You know that.

Yeah, but then, you
move in on your own.

That's dangerous.

It's not like we're dealing
with hardened criminals.

When you pull
someone over..

...how do you know
who you're dealing with?

'Emily, we just don't want'

you and your ladies
getting hurt.

Is that so hard
to understand?

No.

Then, give it up.

I can't, Ponch.

I have my reasons.
I just...can't.

Okay?

Harlan, that bike's got

a ping in it
you can dance to.

No problem.
I'll just take a look at it.

The carburetor
is running lean.

We have to richen it up.

That's amazing.

Well, I'll just, uh..

'Poncherello,
if you would adjust'

'the idle-bleed screw'

'one turn and a half'

'the problem
will be corrected.'

Alright.

Hey, he's right.
The pinging stopped.

Hey, I don't believe it.

Sure.

What else does
he have to do all day, huh?

Fill out a dozen repair forms,
like me?

Beg the department
for more money

to buy better tools,
like me?

'Listen to all your complaints'

'like me, hmm?'

'I'll tell you what?'

The next time you need
an extra player

for your softball team

you get him, not me.

Won't work, Harlan.
Uniform's not big enough.

Uh, I think it's time
to check out of here.

Harlan, I'll come back
for the bike.

Yeah, that's a good idea,
and while you're at it

take this fugitive
from "Star Wars" with you.

I am not a fugitive.
I am a maximum eff--

I know what you are!

Uh, let's go, Merv.

Danger. Danger. Danger.

Emily Daniels,
born May 20th, 1960

to Lewis
and Yolanda Daniels

both living
in Los Angeles.

Hey.

What about brothers, sisters?

Two brothers and one sister

all still living at home.

Three brothers and one sister.

Merv, it says it
right there.

Your antiquated terminal

receives only
limited information.

My advanced X-3-E terminal
has the ability

to tap
into nationwide computer-banks.

Uh, Merv, just tell
us about the third brother.

You didn't ask
about the third brother.

We're asking you now.

Very well, then

the third brother,
Jeffrey Daniels

was born August 5th, 1972

in New York City

and died November 3rd, 1979.

Died

As the result
of injuries suffered

in a hit-and-run
accident, here in Los Angeles.

Is there anything else
you would like to know?

Uh, no, Merv.
Thank you. See you later.

You will not see me later.

We won't?

I have completed my duty

with the CHP.

And soon, will be delivered

to another institution.

Who's the lucky one
this time?

The Parkway Children's Hospital.

Au revoir.

He speaks French, too.

I speak 36

different languages
and dialects.

Sure. Sorry, Merv.

Ah!

Harlan, you ever figure out
what happened

to your
electronic equipment?

I've got an idea, Ponch.

Now, I'm just waiting
for some proof.

There,
that ought to do it.

Who's your friend,
Grossie?

'Come on out.'

Maybe if he turned off
the music.

Music?
You call that music?

'Come on out.'

'Come on.'

'This is Chad.'

I ticketed him
for failing to yield

to an emergency vehicle.

I didn't hear the siren.

- Can't imagine why.
- Anyway.

When he opened his door
to get out..

...I noticed
this stereo equipment..

...on the front seat.

The serial numbers
match the merchandise

that was stolen
from the electronic outlet.

I didn't know
the stuff was stolen

when I bought it,
honest!

Where did you buy it?

You know that gas station
on the corner

of Wilcox and Yucca?

Well, these two guys
were just parked there.

They had the equipment
right in the back of their van.

That's why I didn't think
it could be hot.

Do you know their names?

No.

'How long ago was this?'

About a half an hour ago

'but I don't think
they're there anymore.'

Why not?

They were just packing up.

Any idea where
they were going?

One of them said
he had a date with an angel.

- 'That's what he said.'

Do you remember
what he looks like?

About my height,
brown hair.

Did he have a tattoo
on his left arm?

Yeah.

Scorpion?

Could have been.

Chester Durham.

The man
who wouldn't let us look

into his van.

Yeah, and I got
a pretty good idea

who the angel is,
come on.

You need anything
before I go?

No, go ahead,
I'll catch up

as soon as I get someone
to relieve me on the radio.

- Okay.
- Bye.

We'll go around the back.

Chester--

Hey, we're just going
to have a little fun

with them, that's all.

No!

Stop it!

Stop!

'Stop! No!'

Stop! Stop!

Stop!

Stop! Uh!

No! Don't!

You're messing
with a Scorpio, lady!

Let's just get out of here.
Come on. Let's go.

You okay?

Sure.
I'm fine. Fine.

You had to get even,
didn't you?

- You shut up!
- You better get us out of it.

- It's jammed! Can't get out!
- 'It's open. Come on.'

'Get out now!'

Hey, we were
just having some fun.

We didn't mean
to cause any trouble.

Trouble, Chester?

You don't know
the meaning of the word.

You're going to see
you'll find out.

You two wait for LAPD,
I'm going to go talk to Emily.

Emily,
I did some checking.

I think I know why
you're doing this.

- It's because of your brother.

- Yes.

But if you think
this is going to make me quit

you're wrong.

What is it you want, revenge?

You bet!

He was only seven, Ponch.

And the punk who hit him
didn't even stop!

'If somebody hadn't gotten
his license number, he--'

Yeah, but someone did
and he was caught.

And now, he's out
driving on the streets again

and my..

...my brother's still dead.

What you're doing, Emily,
is not going to bring him back.

Maybe not

but every time
I pull somebody over

who might hurt someone..

...I feel
a little better inside.

And if that's
what revenge does, Ponch..

...that's what I want.

Just to feel
a little better inside.

Now, if you'll excuse me

I, um...gotta, I gotta
clean this place up.

I'll give you a hand.

Here we go, Harlan.

Everything you wanted to know
about electrical energy

but were too afraid
to ask.

You didn't tell anyone you were
getting these for me, did you?

No, but I felt pretty stupid
about sneaking books away

from the police academy.

That's okay. Cadets are
supposed to feel stupid.

Harlan, do you mind telling me
what's going on?

When I'm ready, my boy.
When I'm good and ready.

Harlan, are you sure
you're feeling alright?

I feel fine.

Ever since Merv arrived

you've kind of act
a little strange.

'Maybe you should see a doctor.'

I don't needto see a doctor.

'What I need is,
time to find out'

why my oscilloscope blew up.

Anything else
I can do for you?

Yes, as a matter of fact

there is something
you can do.

You can tell
your girlfriends

to stop calling you
on my line.

Who, me?

You.

These came for you
while you were out.

Only four?

I took the phone
off the hook.

Is thatwhy Louise
couldn't reach you?

Louise?

A gorgeousgirl.

She's crazy about mechanics.

And when I told her
all about you

she went wild.

Too bad.

'Dr. Wienard to administration.'

'Dr. Wienard
to administration, please.'

'Dr. Hotchkiss,
turn off your beeper.'

'Dr. Hotchkiss,
please turn off your beeper.'

This way, Merv.

Yes, Dr. Mitchell.

You're going to brighten
the children's day.

They've been looking
forward to this.

No trouble, Dr. Mitchell.

I will do my best.

Good.

We'll visit this ward
first, Merv.

Looks like he's drunk.

We'd better stop him
before he kills somebody.

Sylvia to base,
notify CHP.

'We have a drunk driver'

'traveling southbound on 101'

'approaching Gower Street Exit.'

10-4, Angels.
We have a unit responding.

'15, Mary 6 and 7.'

'Freeway Angels in pursuit
of a suspected 5-0-2'

'California license
Adam-Boy-Ida-1-7-8'

'in the vicinity
of the Gower Street Exit'

'on the southbound
Hollywood Freeway.'

LA 15, Mary 6 and 7.
10-4.

Here we go again.

Having problems?

Why don't you pull over?

Maybe we can help you.

Had one too many, huh?

'

'Drinking and driving
don't mix.'

Drinking?

We're the Freeway Angels.

And unless you can walk
a straight line, mister

we're making
a citizen's arrest.

A straight line?

LA 15..

- He's drunk.
- '...roll an ambulance.'

'To the southbound 101'

'south of Melrose,
man down.'

He's in shock.

See this medical

'He's a diabetic!'

Oh, my gosh.

Ambulance is
on its way.

We didn't know.

That's just it, Emily.

On this job,
you haveto know.

One day, you're
going to kill someone.

Is that what you want?

No.

Hey, sarge,
I figured it out.

Figured whatout?

What happened to my
electronic equipment

and the computer console.

Maybe they got hold
of some badcurrent.

Maybe you'll stop
making jokes

when you find out
who's to blame...Merv.

Oh, come on, Harlan.

Just because he's an inch
taller than you.

He is not!

Besides, that has nothing
to do with it.

But this does.

That?
That's good.

- I thought you'd ask.

This is an energy pellet

similar to the one
that's inside Merv.

Where'd you get it?

Well, I called Dr. Rutledge

at Space Tech Industries

but of course,
he's too busy to talk

to a lowly CHP mechanic.

So, I called
a friend of mine

who's a chief engineer
for the government

who called an associate
of his

'who just happens to be
Dr. Rutledge's superior.'

Alright. Alright.

You got the pellet,
but why?

So I can prove
my suspicions about Merv.

Alright, to make it easier
for you guys to understand

I'm going to take this hammer
and break open this--

- Relax!

The isotope 6
in this pellet

is 1/50th
of what's in Merv.

Now, here goes.

Okay.

With the lead pellet open

the isotope 6 is exposed.

You gentlemen following me?

Will you come on, Harlan?

Alright, now, I'm going
to put on this lead glove

I borrowed from the X-ray lab
down the street.

Now, leadis the only substance

that isotope 6 won't penetrate.

Now, watch what happens
when I move this pellet

close to the voltage meter.

Harlan, are you telling me
that there's a break

in Merv's energy

Yeah.

And from the evidence

it's getting bigger
every minute.

He's a walking time-bomb.

Where's Merv now?

Parkway Children's Hospital.

'Mary 6 and 7, S-3'

'respond to Parkway
Children's Hospital.'

'We have reason to believe
Merv's power source'

'may explode at any moment.'

'Use extreme caution.'

'Station 10, roll all units'

'to the Parkway Children's
Hospital.'

'Backup the CHP
on a possible explosion'

'from the power source
of a robot.'

'Use caution.
Treat it as a bomb threat.'

You've got
the Munch Monster this time.

That is what youthink.

Oh, darn,
he scrunched away.

Dr. Mitchell,
my laser scanner

shows a hot spot
in the patient's

right lower-quadrant

indicating
an inflamed colon

and not an acute
appendicitis.

And the treatment, Merv?

One gram of penicillin,
IV Push

every six hours.

Take that, Munch Monster,
and that.

'Oh, dear.'

I obliterated
the monster, Merv.

I won! I won!

Yes. So you did.

Goodbye, Suzy.

Bye, Merv.

Oh, Merv, did you get
Suzy's temperature?

Of course. 9.94 degrees.

9.94?

Negative.
Point 994 degrees.

994 degrees?

Merv, don't you mean
99.4 degrees?

That is what I said.

No, you said..

Merv,
are you alright?

Is there something
wrong, Merv?

Merv?

Merv..

Merv!

Now, now. Follow me.
Stay close.

Please help me get
the children out of here.

Alright.

Alright.

Here we go.
Here we go.

- Give us a hand!
- Yeah, alright.

Bruce, get her.

No. Don't move her.
She has a back injury.

Alright.
Let's get the bed. Come on.

Go, get out of here.
We'll take care of her.

Come on. Go, come on.

Alright, sweetheart,
just take it easy.

Come on, put your
arms around me.

Good girl. Come on.

You'll be okay.

It's alright.

We've got to disconnect
that pellet.

You'll never be able
to get that close.

Wait a second,
Harlan said

isotope 6
can't penetrate lead.

X-ray lab's
down the hall.

Be right back.

Rutledge said there's six wires
connecting the pellet.

Each wire has to be removed

separately
and counterclockwise.

If any one wire
touches another--

Don't tell me.

Merv, give me a laser scan
of your condition.

A laser scan shows

progressive deterioration
of my energy source

which will result
in an explosion

equaling two tons of TNT.

How long, Merv?

Sixty seconds and counting.

Alright, let's do it.

Forty-five seconds and counting.

Hang on to him.

Come on, buddy.

'You can do it.
Come on.'

Thirty seconds and counting.

Alright.

Fifteen seconds and counting.

'Ten, nine..

...eight, seven..

...six, come on,
come on!

Five, four

three, two

one

zero..

Good job.

Thanks, sarge.

Couldn't have
done it without you.

Well, Frank..

...you're right.

Another day,
another dollar.

Congratulations.
You got a raise.

Hey, what are you
doing here?

I decided to come
by and tell you

that we're
converting the Angels

into a neighborhood
watch group.

After that last incident

well, I decided to leave it

to the professionals.

That's good
to hear, Emily.

But I am going to still

work for traffic safety.

I told her that the CHP
is always looking

for good officers.

I'm enrolling, Ponch.

We may really be
on the same side someday.

I'd like that.

A fellow cadet?

Anytime you need help
with your homework

you know
where to come.

That's nice.

- Merv!
- Oh, no.

Fully repaired.

And...equipped
with a safety device

in case things
start to go wrong.

What's he doing here?

He did such a good job,
the department decided

to test him out
for another week.

Alright, gentlemen,
let's get back to work.

I am not a gentleman.

I am a maximum efficiency
robotization-vector

series one.

But youcan call me Merv.
