Cover the door.

Goddamn, son of a.

Samantha rork.



Ex-San Francisco vice cop
hired by Hollywood division

to investigate the
international drug cartel

run by Matt Palmer.

Ryan Hayes.

A homicide detective who
teams up with Samantha

that begins the investigation
of a possible drug war

in the city of Los Angeles.

Samantha's something
of a cowboy even though

she is a detective for vice.

In Hollywood, trash like this gets it

from the business end of Sam's .38.

Matt Palmer.

Ex-CIA operative overseas
and presently head

of Palmer enterprises.

His operations in heroin
trade have brought him

to the city of Los Angeles.

Matt and his aide, Carl pond,

are organizing regional drug dealers

to form a heroin distribution
center in L.A. county.

Palmer fears only one man,
that's Walter singlaub,

major drug supplier.

Nigel best, adult movie maker and contact

for both Ryan Hayes and Matt Palmer.

He's best known for what
goes down in the city.

Bart north.

LAPD cop assigned to the Palmer case

and briefly works with Samantha rork.

Johnny Harper, a detective
who's been teamed with Sam

with the understanding
that the two detectives

will pool their resources
to solve a string

of drug-related murders.

Captain renway heads the
Palmer investigations,

and bulldogs his detectives
to squelch the drug war

that's brewing in the
streets of Hollywood.

Ryan!

Hello, love, come on in.

Who's your friend?

She's my partner.

What about the hit over at the Beverly?

Horrible, wasn't it?

I don't know, this is
becoming such a pit of filth.

Look, I know you're
not into dealin' anymore,

but you hear things, right?

They'd kill me for what I know.

But I'm harmless these days.

I got out when the Colombians came in.

So, what's going down in the city?

I don't normally do this,

but Ryan and I go back a long ways.

You still seeing that little makeup girl

from Henry raisin's crew?

You follow any of the coke
around in this city, honey,

and it goes back to singlaub.

And I hear Manny catoza is
supplying a lot of his muscle.

But there's a new syndicate
coming into Hollywood.

Cubans, east coast,
what are we talkin' about?

These are really bad
motherfuckers, ex-CIA.

When Carter left office, half
of the foreign operatives

were cut and they went into drugs.

From what I hear, they're
doing pretty good.

But do you have any names?

No.

Does Carlos zarutti mean anything to you?

He's the Italian.

He's also partners with the guys

that are bringing all of
the heroin into Hollywood.

Where is he livin' now?

Monaco, of course.

So when's this gonna go down?

How the fuck should I know?

I have my own business to run.

You know something,
sweetie, you could make

a fortune in my business.

You're really cute, you know that?

No thanks, I'll pass.

Look, what's Henry up to these days?

Now there's a guy who
keeps up with the trades.

Half his bimbos are on junk.

Buys it by the kilo.

But you don't quote me on that.

Sure.

Well, thanks for your time.

Leaving so soon?

Yeah, we gotta beat the traffic.

See ya around, Nigel.

Ryan?

Take a look at this, love.

New girl I found, she's really hot.

No thanks.

X he's doin' time x

Carl? Nigel.

Listen, love, I've just had a visit

from a couple of homicide people.

They're on your ass.

No, I didn't tell them anything.

Look, why do you have to bring that up

every time I try and give you something?

No, no, I won't be at home tonight.

I've got an evening
shoot over in the valley.

Okay, love, ciao.

Oh, little maxie.

He's so cute.

Lipstick on his chin.

How's your leg, huh?

- It's good.
- Feels good.

Oh, but the lipsticks
you got is your shade.

Get that.

Take care of 'em.

Oh, Max.

Take care of 'em!

Look at these things.

They must feed 'em with blow.

Mine die in a week.

Well, do you water them?

Water?

Listen, I'm gonna go
around to the back, okay?

Just relax, Sam.

Enjoy the scenery.

Can I help you?

LAPD homicide.

Where's Max?

He's in the den, he's busy.

Are you really a cop?

Tell him I wanna see him.

Sure.

Kim, keep him happy.

You got it.

How ya doin, huh?

Police, freeze!

Where the hell ya been, Sam?

Out back hunting rabbits.

Look, I'm gonna try real
hard to stay calm here, huh?

Now I just wanna know one thing.

Why wasn't I informed about this action?

Brother set her up.

Routine lead.

Yeah, we didn't know the
guy was gonna flip out on us.

1 don't like what I'm hearing here.

I mean, good god almighty,
this place looks like

a squashed armadillo
on a Texas interstate!

Now channel 7's gonna get enough footage

outta this mess so the chief is gonna

have you two on mandatory desk assignment!

What the hell ya think
we're dealin' with here?

Born again Bible students?

You write the report, we'll see.

Sir, we've got a lead
on the cochet killing.

Now this thing is getting red hot

and we have got to move on it right now.

Oh, you mean, like, Nigel best?

What'd he have to say?

He got barbecued in his car yesterday!

Now, as of this moment, the
FBI is takin' over this case.

Now hold on a minute, captain.

This is our jurisdiction.

Now, we're on to something here,

and they'll have to start from square one.

Well?

What do you have to say, Hayes?

Give us to the end of the week.

Hey, they already got
our asses in a sling.

If the feds take over from here,

they'll really rub our noses in it.

All right, but you two

are gonna promise me somethin', hear?

You're gonna keep the noise down!

Right, captain.

A little girl was tappin'.

Workin' on one ulcer already.

Everything looks very healthy out there.

It's your audience, sir.

Nervous, are they?

That shootout at
Wells's house didn't help.

Yeah, what's the story on that?

Two cowboys from the Hollywood division.

Detectives Ryan Hayes and Samantha rork.

They did us a freebie hit.

Maybe we should put 'em on
our Christmas card list.

Rork, that name is familiar.

What do you want me
to do with Henry raisin?

- What?
- Raisin.

He's getting too big to ignore.

If singlaub gets a hold of
him, we're in deep shit.

The skin king.

Contract it out with the Colombians.

That guy's a fruit, I don't like him.

Limited or you want the place raked?

Splatter it.

Time?

Let's talk about this after the meeting.

All right, one more thing.

What do you want with the green card?

Send herin.

Yes, sir.

So, you want to be an americano?

Yes.

Maybe I can help.

Relax, just business, honey.

Okay.

Gentlemen, may I have
your attention, please.

Mr. Palmer will be here in a few minutes.

He wants me to congratulate
you and thank you for coming

for what will become the
biggest network in the country.

And here he is.

Last year the Los Angeles basin

had street sales totalling
in excess of $400 million.

We are going to double that
figure using advanced networking

and steady entrepreneurial management.

The weak link in any
operation in our trade

is instability of the local
distributors of our products.

You have each been selected

because your record speaks for itself.

Our sources are stationed in the far east,

Mexico, and Bolivia.

Our plants are under the protection

of the zarutti family in marseilles.

We can offer you the best product,

one that can be cut by
a ratio of 20 to one.

We are talking profits, gentlemen,

that will rival those of
any fortune 500 corporation.

And what do I ask from you?

Commitment and loyalty.

You may well ask
yourself, what will happen

if you break this commitment?

Holy shit!

What the hell happened?

Pure retribution.

Lunch will be served in the east wing.

We'll have representatives there

to answer any questions you may have.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Disgraceful.

Goodnight.

Hey.

Don't go.

Good morning.

You sleep well last night?

Not really.

It's always kinda awkward
sleeping in a new bed.

How 'bout you?

Cut the bull.

You were great last night.

I thought I was gonna melt.

Fair?

Me, too.

So where do we go from here?

I don't know, this is
the first time for me.

Oh, so you're a virgin?

No, I meant with someone on the force.

This could get in the
way of work, ya know.

What do ya think?

Well, this is only temporary,

and after this case we do go
back to our own divisions.

So what do you say we just
keep it quiet until we're done.

All right.

Ya know, it's kinda funny
sleepin' with your partner.

Oh, but it's all right
to sleep with the girls

from ticketing, billing,
and interrogation, huh?

Don't believe everything ya hear.

I think it's just the first time

that you've met someone that's your equal.

On the streets, and in bed.

What, are you Phil donahue?

Ya know, you put up a good act,

but last night you really
did come through for me,

and I'm gonna remember it, always.

You're one tough hombre, rork.

What's this?

That's raisin's address book.

Are you nuts?

That's tampering with evidence on a site

of an active police investigation.

Look, you can stop the recording.

I know it was illegal.

I'm just tryin' to do what
worked for me three years ago.

You can't solve cases
with renway's red tape.

You're lookin' at a hundred plus caseload

solved by badge number 2314, me.

So, did you go through it?

Yeah.

Well, did ya find anything familiar?

Try p.

Matt Palmer.

Wonder if that's the guy
that worked with my dad.

Really?

Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me

if he was involved with this crap.

So, when are we gonna act on it?

Tomorrow.

Why not today?

The barbecue!

Well what if it goes down tonight?

If I miss this barbecue,

I'm gonna be hearin'
about it till Christmas.

Hayes.

Yeah.

All right.

Yes, captain.

Bye.

Renway brought in the FBI and the atf.

What about the DEA?

They didn't return his call.

He gave us a four-day rest
before we resume duty.

Shit, and right when
we're gettin' this close?

And he's pulling the plug on us?

He's just keepin' his nose clean.

Damn.

You know, I hate the politics in this job.

It's the same crap that
happened to me in San Francisco.

Look, we're gonna play this real cool.

Palmer won't be movin'
anything on the weekend.

He'll wait till things are
busy on a business day.

Just tell renway you're
outta town for the weekend.

Do you think we can break
this case in four days?

Come on, we're the best, right?

Yeah.

What, are you burnin' trash out here?

Ryan, you made it.

- Janey.
- Hi.

My god, you brought a girl?

Isn't this a first, Ryan?

Hi, I'm janey and this is Jack.

- Hi, go by Sam.
- Hi, how ya doin"?

You don't hear that name too often.

It's nice to have you come.

You wanna help me?

Sure.

What's up, big brother?

Sam's my partner.

Oh.

And we're dating, may be serious.

We're finally thinkin.

Janey and I were wonderin'
when that little boy

would get outta your system.

How are things down at the airlines?

Eh, crashes aren't
makin' it easy with janey.

She makes me cross myself
when I'm at the controls.

And if the crashes don't get me,

it'll probably be a merger of some sort.

Luckily you don't have that with the city.

Yeah, things are pretty good downtown.

Are you workin' on anything?

Been readin' the times lately?

Nope, been in Australia
for the last week, bud.

Sam and I are investigating a drug ring.

Ah, god, you're amazing.

I go downtown and I miss everything.

You always did have a sixth sense

when it came down to things happenin'

you noticed.

Finally, after all these
years, you noticed.

You're a natural, okay?

I mean, you even knew
who did what in school,

and you're still crazy, but you're good.

Thanks.

How are the burgers doing?

Raw and abused.

So, you're Ryan's brother?

You two sure look different.

Yeah well, mom traveled a lot.

Yeah, somebody had
to get the good looks.

Do you like it here?

Yeah, it's nice.

I'm still tryin' to get used to the smog,

but the beach is great.

You live near Ryan?

Well, I'm sort of living
with Ryan right now.

Yeah, her place is getting remodeled.

You know how new paint smells.

Yeah.

So, working for the police,

it must take most of your time, huh?

Well, I love my work.

But what about the future?

Children?

Let's keep it light, guys.

It's okay.

I really don't want any.

Really?

That's interesting.

But who knows what tomorrow will bring.

I may change my mind.

This house is great, you know.

Eh, it's gettin' kinda small for us.

Who knows, maybe you'll buy it.

No, I like where I'm livin'
right now, on the beach.

But it's so small, Ryan.

I like it small.

We need to get more beers.

Janey, help me, please?

Yeah.

Well?

They're nice.

Yeah, they used to live in Connecticut.

Place called Stepford.

How did the hit go?

They captured one of our trigger men.

Real sloppy work on our account.

That's what ya get
when ya contract it out.

Well, we're in the clear
even if that cokehead talks.

I'm surprised they had
trouble with security, though.

Raisin must be paying more.

It was these two again.

They got Maxwell last week.

I think they're trouble.

Sam rork.

Used to work with her father.

Now it all comes back to me.

So she's a cop now.

That doesn't surprise me.

When you were overseas?

Yes.

I was dealing with zarutti back then.

They blew away this
girl's father and mother.

Found out we were moving more than paper

through those diplomatic pouches.

What a straight arrow he was.

I bet his daughter's the same.

Well these two are askin' about us now.

Whatever you have to do,
I want them eliminated.

I'll make a not of that.

Also, I want you to
take a team to singlaub

and show him that he's not
doing good business with us.

I will.

Videotape it.

We'll send a copy through the network.

Why?

Just good business.

Keep our team from
moving to the other side.

I heard they got the FBI setting up.

The deal will be finished

before they can plug their computers in.

It's a green light on the shipment.

Sunday we collect, and
Monday I want the product

to the distributors.

Do I make myself clear?

Yes, sir, I'll make sure
everything's taken care of.

Good.

See that singlaub gets the message.

I will.

Nice place.

Yeah, well, it's a habit I can't break.

You'll never understand me.

And I've already accepted that.

So, how 'bout this Sam?

Well, a little premature.

We've only been together a week.

It's nothin"

you two are it.

How can you tell?

The chemistry is there.

Really?

Be right back.

Come on, babe, don't stop it.

- Thereiitis.
- How 'bout that.

Yeah, yeah, go ahead.

I'm the leader!

Good evening, marriott hotel.

May I help you?

I'm at the marriott hotel.

Yeah, I got it all.

Just meet me here in about an hour.

Okay, bye.

Yeah, the fishing is incredible.

I was catching steelheads this size.

I've been meanin' to get up there.

Anytime you're interested,
I can get you booked

with the hottest guide in Victoria valley.

I'll remember that.

Sam, come on in, have a seat.

Sam, I'd like you to
meet your new partner.

Bart north.

Samantha rork.

Sam's been with the
department a few weeks now.

I guess you've heard about
Hayes and all that crap.

I won't go into that.

Now what are we gonna do about it?

You ain't gonna do nothin' about it.

Last thing I need is a
vigilante out on the streets.

Now you and north have been
assigned to the projects.

We have some evidence that
there's some small timers

up there workin' outta 31st street.

I want 'em outta the neighborhood.

What are they packin'?

These days ya never know.

Probably .22 autos.

These guys can't afford any
high-priced merchandise.

Are you afraid?

It's my bad ass luck that Jerry ragusso

retired when he did.

Cut it out, you two.

This ain't no damn date.

Ya don't get to pick your partners.

Now maybe you two can learn
somethin' from each other.

Oh yeah, right.

Listen, rork, you're
still on loan from vice.

Be real easy to send you home again.

Stop playing politics.

I'm here and I'm gonna finish this stint.

Another Chuck Norris.

Just get the job done, okay?

Make the chief real happy.

You probably don't like donuts.

You're right.

We're not eating at any
place that has ferns, hear me?

Sam.

Let's try to keep the body
count down this week, okay?

I will.

Just find out who killed my partner.

I will.

Hold it.

This is how it's gonna go down.

You kick, I enter, and
we nail those punks.

All right, Rambo.

I smell a rat here.

Freeze!

Samantha,
Samantha, what's the problem?

Maybe this was a mistake that I came.

No, it was not a mistake.

That's what I'm here for.

Now, what's going on?

Things are just really fucked, doc.

Just really fucked.

All right, tell me
where it hurts the most.

Maybe we can fix it, okay?

God, it hurts, doc.

It hurts so bad.

Samantha, don't be so tough on yourself.

Take it easy.

You know you're entitled
to your own feelings.

You're a human being.

It's not a sin to feel hurt.

It's Ryan.

Ryan's dead.

You know, we've had that discussion

about your brother's death, and now Ryan.

You've gotta work through those feelings.

You gotta ride them through.

You can, you know.

It's me, though.

I'm a death sentence.

You're a person in a very,
very dangerous occupation.

My partner got shot today.

Go on.

We went to investigate this
doper over in the heights,

and Bart and I went in,

and he was shot and now he's dead.

And you?

God, Christ, I shot
the two son of a bitches.

Why do I always have to live, doc?

All right, Samantha,
we've been here before.

Now, I want ya to take a deep breath

and we're gonna count to 10 backwards.

Here we go.

10.

10.

Nine.

Nine.

Eight.

Eight.

Seven.

Seven.

Six.

Six.

Five.

Five.

Four.

Four.

Three.

Three.

Two.

Two.

One.

One.

Samantha, I want ya to promise me

never to keep your revolver in your home.

Always keep it in your
car whenever you're here.

Agreed?

1'm a cop.

What if someone tries to break in?

At this moment, you're
your own worst enemy.

Do what I say.

Okay, I will.

But I'm not gonna leave the force.

You're gonna be all right, Samantha.

But I want ya to call me every day.

Okay, I will.

Doc, I'm really glad I
have somebody like you.

You got it.

How's the handicap?

I don't know why I bother
with this damn sport.

I lost three balls today.

I got some bad news.

I know.

Zarutti's pissed.

He wants to know who messed up.

How am I supposed to know?

Cochet was his girl.

I set this deal up and nothin's

going to get in the way of it.

He says the cops are
in the neighborhood.

You think Charles singlaub's behind this?

Possibility.

He knows that if we get this deal through

we'll be able to control all
the action on the west coast.

My guys say he's getting
help from Manny catusso

in east L.A.

There's rumors.

There's gonna be some rockin' and rollin'

the next couple of days.

He's thrown up enough shit

to get the distributors spooked.

Catusso's smart.

He's gonna try to knock us out.

Without that bag, we
don't know what we've got.

You gonna send another guy?

If they try to screw us,
they know they're in for a hit.

I want you to keep your
eyes on the gangs in town.

What about the cops?

Singlaub's the one
we have to worry about.

From what I hear, he has half
the department on his payroll.

I made arrangements to
have all the distributors

at your house on Friday.

Good.

I want everyone there.

The guys know what to do.

From the first step
they take into my house,

I want them to know what kinda shit

they're up against if they drop out.

Yes, sir.

Beats workin' for the company.

Absolutely.

See ya later tonight.

Sounds good, around nine.

Hey, Johnny.

What are you doin' here?

You know, I hear the surf's real bitchin'

down at the swimmin' pool.

Enough of the jokes.

What's goin' on?

Well, her name is Elizabeth mcintyre.

Tom's got all of her papers,

passport, visa, traveler's checks,

and a hell of a lotta cash.

Sounds like an American
express commercial.

What else?

Well, the lady was well-pampered.

You know, hairstyle, the
manicure, the beautiful skin.

But guess what?

I found traces of iv
use, two to three years.

Did ya find any smack in the place?

Nah, clean, not a speck.

Hm, how many entry wounds?

Six.

No wait, make that nine.

Nine millimeter, probably
from an uzi or an ingram.

So somebody musta heard somethin'.

Well, Tom did all the interviews.

Far as I could tell, she was ambushed

from the corner of the room by the closet.

Bazoom, she fell over the bed.

That's where we found her.

What do you think, mob hit?

I don't know.

You're the detective.

Aw, thanks.

Hey, Johnny.

Hey, did anybody see anything?

Ah, the rooms around here were vacant.

But I got a maid who can't
speak a word of english.

Thank god I could speak
a little of her lingo.

She said she saw two strange men

hangin' out at the pool area.

Is that it?

I'm afraid so.

Too bad we didn't find a joint.

Coulda brought vice in on this one.

Lemme go.

Lemme go.

Absolutely, no.

Hey, donuts.

No, we've
got to get this signed.

We doused everything in there.

Did we?

Okay, yeah, well.

Hey, captain.

Who's this?

Yes, absolutely.

It's your new partner
for the next month.

What?

The chief has decided to
experiment with this department.

We're gonna team up a
homicide with a vice cop.

You two are it.

Why didn't I have a say about this?

Well now maybe, just maybe,
'cause you're not the captain.

I am!

All right, you'll be takin'
on the mcintyre case.

Detective Sam rork, I'd like ya

to meet detective Johnny Harper.

How ya doin"?

You're awful young.

That's a switch.

You could learn a lot from rork.

She used to live overseas.

Worked vice up in frisco.

Oh yeah, they got a great need

for breakin' up those bathhouses up there.

Captain, this is not gonna work.

You know me.

Yeah, I know.

That's why I teamed you two up.

Well, at least you smell
better than my last partner.

Hey listen, I'm not exactly thrilled

about this deal either.

Now the last thing I need
is another little man

with a big gun, ya got it?

Knock it off, enough Patty cakes, 'Kay?

Now what did interpol have on this woman?

Elizabeth mcintyre,
alias sylvette cochet.

Worked for marseilles underground.

Former heroin addict.

Fashion model for vogue.

Circle of friends include Regis vendatta,

Sterling fuchs, Carlos zarutti.

Any of those
rooms sound familiar?

Carlos zarutti, he does
business in L.A. occasionally.

He just might be behind this.

That woman mighta been carryin' for him.

The lab did find traces

of heroin dust in cochet's luggage.

I knew it, I knew drugs are behind this.

Aren't they always in this town?

So you think she was hit for the heroin

that she was delivering?

This point rork, I don't think anything.

Who knows, word coulda
gotten out some young punk

lookin' for a score mighta taken her down.

With an ingram, right, captain?

That's why I have you
people, Mr. smarty pants.

Now get off your ass, get out there,

and find out what's
passin' on the streets!

Are we the only two that are involved

in this case, captain?

Truth is, rork, this
case wouldn't rate page 39

in any big city daily.

Just get us a clean report and we'll get

the chief off our back, okay?

I'm leavin' it up to you two.

What car do we get to use?

Yours.

Thank you, captain.

See ya around.

So, you're from San Francisco.

Not really.

My brother and I moved
here about a year ago.

You see, my father was a marine
so we traveled abroad a lot.

Why'd ya move to L.A.?

It's kinda personal.

Do you mind if we change the subject?

You find out your boyfriend was gay?

No, my brother died of cancer.

Sorry.

Are you always such a prick?

Only to people that know me.

Hey, that stereo's not regulation.

Now what if a call came over the radio?

I know, but I like it.

Renway warned me about you.

Gimme the cliff notes.

What'd he say?

He said you used to
be a hotshot in the vice

when you first came on.

Those were wild days back then.

You're too young to be burned out.

I just set my priorities.

I wanna see my hair gray,
grow my double chin,

collect my pension.

It's too soon and I don't buy it.

You know, I know people pretty well

and I know you're not that type.

Oh really?

Isn't this place great?

Yeah, it's great.

I come here every morning after surfing.

Oh, you surf?

Yeah, I do.

Do you know how?

Oh, I tried it once in Hawaii,

but I'm really not very good at it.

Well, if you could
surf the way you shoot,

I don't think you're
gonna have any problem.

Who taught you how anyway?

It was your dad or the department?

My dad.

He was stationed in a couple embassies

where they had their own shooting ranges,

so my brother and I would
hang out on the weekends

and just blow the place away.

Was he a cop, too?

No.

So how do you know Carlos zarutti?

Well, we lived in Paris and my father

used to talk about how the CIA would deal

with the mob in marseilles.

Well, you wouldn't
believe some of the things

that go on in those places.

I mean, there's this one
guy named Matt Palmer,

he's a real asshole.

The CIA stationed him with us.

Geez, I'll never forget that bastard.

Where's your dad stationed now?

My mom and dad were killed in a car bomb

in Paris about six years ago

tomorrow. - Christ.

Did they ever find out who did it?

Well Palmer seems to
think that the palestinians

had something to do with it,

but I think that he and
zarutti were in on it.

Thing is I can't prove anything.

But if you saw the look on
Palmer's face when I left.

Bastard.

I'm surprised they let you on the force.

What do you mean by that?

Well, didn't ya have to tell this stuff

to a shrink during orientation?

Well let's just say that I used

my selective memory recollection.

But what about you?

I mean, you look more like you belong

in a budweiser commercial than the LAPD.

Well, when I got outta the army,

I was looking for a job
that would allow me to surf,

and they were begging for guys
willing to cut their hair.

You used to be a hippie?

No, I'd call it post-flower power.

Well, do you have any
photos from back then?

I got a bunch of 'em.

My dad was one of those
wedding photographers.

Yeah?

Oh yeah, put her through.

Samantha, Samantha, how are things going?

Oh, you got a new partner.

Well that sounds like progress.

All right.

Okay, stay in touch.

You got 'em?

Yeah, found 'em in the garage.

This idea of us goin'
away was pretty smart.

God knows we both need it.

You got Vancouver, Maui, and St. Croix.

Ryan always raved about Maui.

Don't do this.

He's gone and we can't bring him back.

We've got to go on with our work,

our vacations, and everything else, okay?

I'm just being stupid.

No you're not.

It's hard knowin' he's
not gonna be around.

Look at me.

I shoulda thrown all this stuff

in the dumpster at his office.

Now why didn't renway pick this up?

Honestly, I don't even
think that they care.

They're just bastards.

Well, I didn't wanna bring this up,

but I was talkin' to some of
the guys at Ryan's old hangout.

They knew.

If they know, why don't they get him?

They can't move without
a thread of evidence.

I'll go.

No you won't.

Got somethin' better planned.

You're not going after that maniac!

You're right.

Maybe the police don't give a damn.

But he was my only brother,
and if this guy's out there,

I'm gonna get him.

Ryan was trained.

You're a pilot.

These people are animals.

You're going, aren't you?

Ryan would've done it if I'd got killed.

What about the police?

The guys said they're
treading lightly on the case.

I guess the chief wants
the PR to die down.

It's typical.

Listen, I want
you to go to your sister's.

I'll call you when everything's done.

What about Sam?

She could lose her job if this spoils,

so call her if I don't
come home by tonight.

You know you're crazy.

Runs in the family.

So, is this place always this crowded?

You oughta see it on weekends.

Yeah, I bet.

Why don't ya go check it out.

Or is that against regulations?

This is against regulations.

Aw, you're breakin' my heart.

You know, ya don't have
to get me drunk or anything.

We're not on a date.

I just figured you were a heavyweight,

you know, the way you shoot your gun.

Ya know, sometimes
you can be a real prick.

Hey, I meant that as a compliment.

Accepted.

So how'd ya get so tough?

How did you?

Me?

I was a runt.

Nobody even wanted to pick
me for their football team.

I was five-foot-four till I
was a senior in high school.

Well, I can see your
nose is still intact.

Uh-huh, your turn.

Did ya ever see the
movie "the great santini"?

You know the one about
the gung-ho fighter pilot

and his family?

Yeah, Robert duvall was in it.

Well, 1 didn't know anything different.

Knuckle pushups?

Military burpees.

Pugil sticks
at the breakfast table?

Close.

Oh, geez.

Get over here.

What do you want from me?

What?

Your life!

Yeah, how do ya like that?

Yeah, ya like this shit?

Yeah, do it more, asshole.

Go ahead, I like it.

Fuck you.

You're gonna like this.

You're gonna like this one.

Die, fucker!

Die!

Yeah.

Oh, put her through.

Hello, Samantha.

Well it sounds like your life
is really coming together.

How would you like not
having to call me anymore?

Okay, you got it.

Bye.

She's quite a looker.

A real fighter in bed.

You know she'll come after us

when she finds out we've got her partner.

That's the whole point.

I don't understand.

Sometimes there are
things more important

than just business.

I see.

Having singlaub under my
foot is a great feeling.

I'm sure the meeting will be a success.

We'll see.

You little shit!

Come on, you're gonna like
what we have in mind for you.

Come herel

come on.

Yeah, yeah, come here.

Hey!

Ah!

Shit!

No!
