Busting (1974) - full transcript
LA cops Gould and Blake get in over their heads when they don't heed orders from above and go after a big crime boss. While higher ups in the police department want the cop duo to just focus on nabbing petty criminals, the team does so while still going after LA kingpin Rizzo. Various fist fights, chases, shootouts and other carnage occur as the two cops go after Rizzo's crime syndicate.
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
Dr. Bickman would like
to see me in two weeks.
Certainly, Mrs. Rosen.
Two weeks, two weeks...
Tuesday the 23rd at 3:30.
Would that be all right?
Tuesday,
yes, that'll be all right.
I feel terrible.
Thank you, Mrs. Rosen.
Dr. Bickman will see you now.
-Hello, Jackie.
-Hello, Dr. Bickman.
I'll be right with you.
Oh, thanks.
Ah, that's a very pretty dress
you're wearing.
-Thank you.
-Very becoming.
-[CHUCKLES] Here you are.
-Thank you.
You're in the best of health?
I am. Thank you.
You have very beautiful skin.
You know, you really ought
to be complimented
on the way that you take
good care of your skin.
Thank you.
Do you have an appointment?
No.
Well... Well, I'm sorry.
Dr. Bickman's
schedule is rather full.
That's okay. You see,
I had a filling in here
that fell out, you know?
Would you like to
make an appointment?
-No.
-Dr.
Bickman is with a patient.
That's okay. Thank you.
Hey, how you doing?
Just who are you
and what are
you doing in here?
I'm Mr. Keneely and
this here is Mr. Farrel.
-How do you do?
-What's the matter with you?
Coming in,
barging in here like this?
We'd like to talk
to you for a minute.
Don't you see I
have a patient?
How you doing?
Would you like a stick of gum?
We'd like to talk to you
about a girl named Jackie.
Jackie's liable to
get you written up
in all the dental journals.
There's another
office where we can talk.
It's right this way.
-I'll be right back, Mrs.
Storch.
-[MUFFLED PROTEST]
You might even get
your face on the cover.
[MUFFLED PROTESTING CONTINUES]
Take it easy, Mrs. Storch.
KENEELY: Did you
really do it in the chair?
-[LAUGHS]
-I don't know what
you're talking about.
Look, doctor,
please, now wait a minute.
Before we bullshit each other
into the middle of next week,
there's a couple of
things you gotta know.
First of all,
we know who she is.
Jackie? We know why
she comes here every Tuesday
and we know what she does
when she's here.
-In the chair.
-Oh, no, no, no.
How would you know anything
about her or me,
for that matter?
We've had a tap on her phone
for over a month.
Honest.
That's illegal.
I knew we
shouldn't have done it.
You got a wastebasket,
I can throw my gum in?
Yeah,
there's one right over there.
-Doctor?
-Yeah.
Listen, we don't wanna make
any trouble for you, really.
All we wanna do
is get the girl.
Personally, I don't blame you,
'cause she's a knockout.
I'm in love with her,
but we do have to nail her.
I think I don't want
to answer any of
your questions.
Well, look, I'm gonna
make a date with her.
I'm gonna tell her
I'm a friend of yours.
[LAUGHS] You're
no friend of mine.
Well,
I certainly would like to be.
Anyway, she's gonna be
calling you up
to check me out,
like any smart
hooker would, right?
And you're gonna tell her
that
everything's cool, got it?
I'm not gonna do
any such thing.
Listen, do you have a warrant?
-You got a warrant?
-I don't have a warrant.
-Do you have a warrant?
-No, we don't got a warrant.
Well, then, I think you
better get out of here.
Well, we can't do that.
We don't have enough evidence
if we leave now
for a conviction.
It would be
embarrassing if we went
in front of the grand jury
without any evidence.
Embarrassing for me, for him,
embarrassing for you, doctor.
Pictures, televisions will
all be contacting you.
All right, get out of here.
-No.
-Wait a minute.
-I think Dr.
Bickman, here, is right.
-Huh?
I think we ought to leave
and perhaps discuss it
some other time
at a more comfortable place.
I think you're quite right.
-Thank you.
-You're quite welcome.
Where would we
feel more comfortable?
Oh, I don't know.
Maybe the doctor's home with
the doctor's
wife and children.
Beautiful idea.
The man's got class.
Wait. Wait.
All right, all right.
I think you men
are despicable.
Oh, and you're
a Cub Scout, right?
What time you got?
5:45.
Okay,
I'll open the door at 5:55.
You got it.
Nah, make it 6:00.
She's sort of cute.
Terrific.
Have a wonderful time.
I'm gonna sit right
down here and protect.
It's very dangerous work.
How about if I come back
tomorrow morning?
Hello, there.
KENEELY: Hey, how you doing?
Hi. Are you Mike?
Uh-huh.
-Come in.
-Okay.
Would you, uh, like a drink?
No. No, thanks.
This is quite
a place you got here.
Thank you.
Where do you know Dr.
Bickman from?
-Leo?
-Mmm-hmm.
Oh,
we were in the army together.
-Oh. And where are you from?
-Chicago.
Oh, Chicago's a nice city.
Yeah,
if you can stand the weather.
[LAUGHS] Where in Chicago?
What do you mean,
"Where in Chicago?" Chicago.
There's the North Side,
the South Side.
-The Near North.
-The North Side.
Oh. Do you know
where Division Street is?
What are you asking me
all these questions for?
'Cause I think
you're a Vice cop.
Vice cop? What,
is there a cop around here?
Look, I don't want no trouble.
-Take it easy.
-Maybe I'll come
back some other time.
-There are no cops here.
-If I thought
there was cops...
Look, I knew I
shouldn't have come here.
-I told you don't worry.
-Look, I'm a respected man.
-No, it's all right.
-Maybe I'll come
back some other time.
-I don't want any...
-Look, don't worry.
Now, what do you want?
What do I want?
Well, you said 100 bucks.
Well,
100 is for a standard job.
If you want something
a little bit more special,
then that'll cost
a little bit more.
Oh, yeah? How much?
That all depends
on what you want.
What, you got a catalogue?
I'll take
the standard job this time.
Do you want me to
take your clothes off?
No, no, I can just
handle that myself.
Oh.
Is anything the matter?
Oh, no, nothing's the matter.
No?
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
I don't know how
to tell you this,
but you're under arrest.
Oh, shit. Are you kidding me?
No. I wish I was.
It's after 6:00.
Everything okay?
Do you know where
Division Street is?
Division Street,
uh, is in Chicago.
Oh,
yeah, what part of Chicago?
What the hell do I know.
Is everything okay?
-What's the matter?
-Yeah, everything's okay.
I was just asking
a couple of questions.
Jackie, Farrel.
Farrel, Jackie.
How do you do?
Just fine, thank you.
I think your
partner's a prick.
-Thank you.
-So do I.
You better get dressed.
Oh, where's your
trick book, honey?
I don't know what
you're talking about.
She don't know what
we're talking about.
I'll find the trick book.
It ain't there anyplace.
-It ain't there.
-Oh.
Just what the hell
do you think you're doing?
Oh, I don't know what
you're talking about.
It's in that
cushion on the sofa.
Right.
I knew you'd find it.
Well, let's get going, huh?
I have another
appointment at 9:00.
That little trick
kept the rating
of everybody in her book.
How very efficient.
How'd the dentist do?
-"Stinkaroo. Tapioca time."
-[LAUGHS]
I don't have it down here.
What time did we bust her?
-You said after 6:00.
-Okay.
She's got some
lollapaloozas in here,
let me tell you.
Yeah, who have you got?
Gelbart. The guy
from the D.A.'s office.
Yeah? How did he...
$250. That's how he did.
-Man, she was a robber.
-Overcharged. Overcharged.
He should've called a cop.
You bet he
should've called a cop.
It says his specialty
was getting dressed
in her under-clothes.
For $250 he can
wear my underwear.
-Boy,
I didn't write down nothing.
-Oh.
What time did we
start surveillance?
-Oh, about 4:00.
-Okay.
You won't believe this.
Belinki and
Newman made the book.
Those guys from the day shift?
How'd they do?
Good.
Terrific. I wouldn't want
the department
to get a bad name.
[PHONE RINGING]
Farrel, Vice Squad.
You sure?
Yeah. Okay.
Sergeant wants to see us.
Oh, good,
goody, goody, goody, goody.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Would you like to
sit down, Keneely?
-It's okay.
-Sit down, Keneely.
Would you like a cigar?
-Farrel?
-No, thanks, boss.
Would you like a light?
No, no, I don't smoke.
Then what you got that thing
in your mouth for?
I don't know. I...
[SCOFFS]
These cigars are for shit.
I just got
a whole box of them.
Sent away for them
in a mail order thing.
It said they were Havanas.
You know, if that's a Havana,
Castro can keep
the whole stinking country.
-It's a shame.
-Mmm.
Now, I gotta smoke
that whole
stinking box of cigars.
[CLICKING TONGUE]
It's a shame.
About that hooker you busted,
what's her name?
The one just brought in?
-Jackie.
-Jackie. Yeah, yeah, Jackie.
Well, what about her?
Someone made a phone call.
Keneely, are you sure
there was no
entrapment involved?
Yeah, I'm sure.
What kind of phone call?
The phone call doesn't matter.
It's just that this girl
has some friend someplace.
Oh, yeah? Where?
It doesn't matter.
You talking about Rizzo?
You sure there's no chance
that you never heard
her specifically say
what she was gonna
do for the money?
It's Rizzo.
It's the kind of
mistake any cop could make.
Nobody'd be pissed.
Happens all the time.
Judge would be delighted
to throw the case
out in the morning.
You know how
overcrowded the courts are.
All you have to do
is tell the judge
that you never heard
her specifically state
what she was gonna
do for the money.
Then there's not
enough evidence
for a conviction.
Hey, what's so
special about this hooker?
Sure you don't want a cigar?
Well, I'm glad that's settled.
Now, about tonight.
We've had
a complaint about that...
Sit down.
About that fruit
bar The Cavern.
They got a live
show going after hours.
They lock the doors at 2:00
and then they put it on.
You guys go in around 1:30,
and we'll have five cars
and a wagon
there at show time.
As soon as you're
ready to make the bust,
you open the door.
That'll be our signal. Okay?
Okay.
You're sure you
don't want a cigar?
No.
Hey, you know,
this isn't
a picnic for me either.
KENEELY:
Hey, how you doing, ladies?
Shove it.
FARREL:
Hey, look at the Electra.
Rizzo's place is
really smoking tonight.
KENEELY: He's got
a broad in there
who does a trick
with a cigarette.
Hard to believe.
FARREL: I wish we
could bust that place.
We couldn't even keep
one of his hookers in jail.
Big, tough cops.
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]
Hey, would you like a light?
No, no, I don't smoke.
Just a nervous habit.
Very nervous.
No, thanks.
No, thanks.
Mmm-hmm.
Hello, there.
Hello, there.
My name is Stephen.
FARREL: Hello, Stephen.
What's your name?
Pat. Patrick.
Are you alone?
Pat's with me.
Her loss.
Come on,
Patricia, let's dance.
[LAUGHING DRUNKENLY]
Hey, Scheherazade,
I think we better dance.
Are you kidding me?
Come on,
you wanna stand around here
for another half hour?
With your badge
on your forehead?
This place isn't
even gonna close up.
-I'll lead.
-Oh, yeah? Come on.
You wanna dance, I'll lead.
You wanna dance, I'll lead.
Hey, did you do that?
Do what?
Somebody pinched my ass.
[LAUGHING] Are
you shitting me?
[MEN LAUGHING]
You smell pretty sweet.
What kind of cologne you use?
I wish 2:00 would get here.
I'm starting to like this.
Would you wanna do
one of those dips?
Mind if I cut in?
KENEELY: Yeah.
Well, why don't
you ask if Pat minds.
-Do you mind?
-I mind.
Pat minds.
Hey, now look, sweetheart,
him and me are very tight.
We're gonna pick
out drapes next week.
I don't think I like you.
You're holding my wrist.
-I don't think I like you.
-You said that already.
We don't want any trouble.
Oh, she's so strong.
Why don't you just
leave us alone, okay?
I like it when they're strong.
Why don't you put
that away, okay?
Oh,
are you gonna hurt me, lover?
Hey, what's your problem?
Take it easy, chickadee.
Oh, what's the matter, lover?
Aren't you gonna hurt me?
This is getting out of hand.
Let's get going.
No, you aren't going anywhere!
-You get the door.
-Okay, okay, okay.
Everybody cool it.
Cool it, we're police.
Cops here.
-Cool it, we're cops.
-Now there's just
no trouble here.
-[EXCLAIMING]
-KENEELY: Ow!
[BOTH YELLING]
[MEN SHOUTING]
[MAN SCREAMING]
[CROWD CLAMORING]
[ALL SHOUTING]
[SIREN WAILING]
[WOMAN CHATTERING
OVER POLICE RADIO]
That creepy faggot took
a hunk out of my leg.
Geez.
What's it all coming to, man?
What's it coming to?
Are you okay?
Yeah, yeah.
And that's what I
call a nightmare.
-Ugly. Ugly.
-You guys okay?
Oh, yeah, yeah,
I thought we lost these.
Hey, you better have
a doctor look at that.
Oh, yeah, thanks a lot.
[LAUGHING] Boy,
those kooks are something.
I think I'm gonna fart.
"Dear Mom and Dad.
How are you?
"I am swell. A fag ate my leg.
-"Your son, Michael."
-[LAUGHS]
Oh, boy.
Checking out.
Right.
Hey, they're giving the Rams
six points Sunday.
Take it. Vegas is giving five.
Is that so?
Look, there's a trick book,
the hooker's name is Jackie.
-Can I see it?
-Sure, sure.
Only giving
five in Vegas, huh?
Maybe you're right.
Think I'll bet it.
Don't bet too much.
Hey, this isn't the...
Look, the pages are empty.
It's not
the book I brought in.
It looks like a book to me.
Yeah, well, it is a book,
but it's not
the book I brought in.
Can I have
the one I brought in?
It says here,
"One black
loose-leaf notebook."
That's not it.
All I know is
what it says here.
Look, will you cut the shit?
-Well,
what do you want from me?
-I want the book, damn it!
-He don't know.
-He knows, everybody knows.
Come on, let's go.
What's your name?
Magenta.
-[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
-Magenta?
-Is that your name?
-Yes.
It's your legal name?
No.
Do you mind telling me
what your legal name is?
Connors. Harold Connors.
-[AUDIENCE EXCLAIMING]
-[GAVEL BANGING]
[WHISTLING]
Harold?
Harold, do you always like
to dress up like that?
You know you're
in a fair amount
of trouble, don't you, Harold?
Do you know what they did
to me last night?
No, Harold.
[AUDIENCE YELLING]
What did they do
to you last night?
Put me in a cell
with a whole bunch of animals.
[AUDIENCE CONTINUES YELLING]
[GAVEL BANGING]
From what I hear, Harold,
you and your friends can
take pretty good
care of yourselves.
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
You. What's your name?
Your legal name?
Philip Lampson.
Harold? Harold?
Do you have to
hold Philip's hand
in my court?
Now, do you two
people have attorneys?
I am representing them,
Your Honor.
Oh, Mr. Crosby,
it's nice to see you again.
Thank you, Your Honor.
Do your clients
know their rights?
Yes, they do, Your Honor.
And they know that
they have been violated.
Really, Mr. Crosby?
They have been subjected
to harassment and
brutality by the police.
They have been beaten,
humiliated...
I'm sure they have, Mr.
Crosby.
Do they have bail?
Yes, they have, Your Honor.
I would like to say...
I'm sure you would, Mr.
Crosby.
The defendants are
released on $250 bail.
There will be
a preliminary hearing
two weeks from today.
-Your Honor, I would like...
-I said, two weeks.
Apparently, you
didn't hear me, Mr. Crosby.
I have a full calendar here.
I would like to get through it
before the day is over.
You may leave now.
Oh, and tell your clients not
to break their high heels
on the way out of here.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
The City of Los Angeles
versus Jacqueline Faraday.
Are you Miss Faraday?
Yes, Your Honor.
Mr. Weldman,
are you
representing Miss Faraday?
I am, Your Honor.
Are you the arresting officer?
Yes, Your Honor.
Uh, Kennedy?
Keneely.
Your Honor, I realize
it's a bit unusual
to hold a preliminary
hearing this quickly.
However,
I feel my client need not
have these charges
hanging over her head
any longer than is necessary.
I would like to
thank the court
for expediting the matter.
Certainly.
Your Honor, there is a point
of ambivalence in this case.
Rather than have
Detective Keneely
read his entire report,
to save time, I suggest
we address
ourselves to that point.
Detective Keneely, do you have
any objection to Mr.
Weldman's suggestion?
No.
I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
Could you speak up?
No, no, no, no.
Would you please step forward
and take the stand?
Detective,
did you specifically hear
Miss Faraday
make an indecent
proposition to you?
I'm not sure.
JUDGE:
I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
Could you speak louder please?
I'm not sure.
WELDMAN: Did Miss Faraday
specifically state
that she would perform an act
of a sexual nature
for a specified
amount of money?
-No.
-JUDGE: Louder please.
No.
WELDMAN: Thank you, Detective.
Your Honor, there's clearly
insufficient grounds here.
I ask the case be dismissed.
JUDGE: The request is granted.
And I would like to know why
with so little evidence
this case was
brought before me?
I don't know.
"I pledge allegiance
to the flag
of the United States
of America.
"And to the Republic
for which it stands.
"One nation, under God,
"with liberty and
justice for all. Amen."
Get out of here, man.
Take a walk, take a walk.
-Get out of here.
-What the fuck this is, man?
Go on down the road, man.
[EXHALES]
Okay, he is here.
I have arrived.
Oh, cover that up.
Fifty cents deposit
if you wanna
look at the books.
It's refundable
toward a purchase.
You talking to me?
Got 50 cents right here.
Tails again.
I was interested in
one of your massages.
Have you got a bad back?
Well, it wasn't my back
I was thinking
about getting massaged.
[LAUGHS]
Will you look at that?
Some dudes need
all the help
they can get, huh?
Massage costs $20.
Twenty bucks?
Must be pretty
good for 20 bucks.
We've had no complaints.
-Got some pictures?
-Oh, I certainly do.
Here. Take a look.
Hey, come on. Don't dirty it.
Well, this one here
looks pretty cute.
-What's her name?
-Doris.
Doris. Well, she must
be pretty good for 20 bucks.
-The best.
-Okay.
Point me out to ol' Doris,
I will make history tonight.
Which way?
Do I go in the back?
Usually the back. Which way?
Which way? Come on.
-The room back there.
-The room back there.
Okay,
if you hear an explosion,
you know it's me.
Hi.
How are you, Doris?
Hello.
Well, you're even
prettier than your picture.
You can hang your
clothes on the hangers.
Thank you.
What kind of
massage did you say
I'd get for 20 bucks?
You get a regular massage,
nothing more.
Look at my nose.
Huh?
It's a terrific nose.
Wear it in good health.
It can smell
the Vice cop at 100 feet.
What are you talking about?
I just came in
here to buy a book.
Aw, what are you doing here?
You know you're not supposed
to come around here.
I came to buy a book.
All right,
pick anything you want,
it's on the house.
Thanks.
Don't take your time.
Listen,
honey, if I just wanted
a regular massage, you know,
I would've gone to a gym.
You know what I mean?
If you want something special,
the price is different.
Hey, sugar, just because
I'm a dude from out of town,
don't go treating me
like no yokel, you hear?
How much more do
you have in mind?
A hand job is an extra 10.
Straight lay is 25.
Twenty-five, huh?
Well, I got me
another 25 and, uh...
Hey, Doris, honey.
Yes?
Sorry to have
to tell you this,
but, uh, you're under arrest.
I'll trick for you
if you'll let me go.
Well,
maybe in some other life.
Where you
getting the stuff from?
These are old marks.
I kicked it two years ago.
Sure you did.
Hey, Farrel!
Get out of here, honey.
Keneely!
The girl's a junkie
and she said cutie pie
here is the supplier.
Where's the stuff, Marvin?
-I haven't told him anything.
-Hey, don't be dumb.
Where's the stuff, Marvin?
The broad's full of shit.
I never gave her anything.
-Get out of here.
-Come on, he won't hurt you.
Come on. It's okay.
If the girl's
telling the truth,
you're in a lot
of trouble, Marvin.
Yeah, you're gonna be
in a lot of trouble.
Mr. Rizzo don't like people
bothering his places.
Oh, yeah?
I got a right to
make a phone call.
You don't got
a right to breathe.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
You lay a finger on me,
I'll sue your ass.
I'm laying more
than one finger on you.
There's no stuff here.
Oh, yeah? Well, we'll find it,
won't we, Marvin?
Yeah, I need a warrant.
That creep back there
has got a lot of
dope in his house.
How do you know?
How do I know?
How do I know? I know.
Do you know what time it is?
It's 1:00, Sarge. Why?
Do you think I'm gonna
wake Judge
Morrison for a warrant
at 1:00 in the morning
because you think some guy's
got drugs in his apartment?
Hey, we need a warrant.
And if I wake Morrison
and ask him for a warrant
and it turns out that
you guys can't find anything,
I'd get creamed.
We need a warrant.
The girl in
there has got tracks
on both her arms.
And that fat tub is
holding a ton of dope.
-You think?
-I know.
Not for sure.
What do you want, Sarge?
Reasonable cause.
I want more than your goddamn
hunch before I wake
up Judge Morrison!
Look for
the shit in the morning.
We can get
the warrant in the morning.
In the morning that guy
will be on the streets
before the court house opens,
and he'll clean up
and it'll be your fault.
I'm sorry.
I am not gonna wake
Judge Morrison
at 1:00 in the morning,
period!
KENEELY:
Judge Morrison, period.
I wouldn't wake up
a judge for the world.
FARREL: What's that?
Baby powder.
KENEELY: That's your actual
jackpot, partner.
[GUNFIRE]
[MORE GUNFIRE]
[MORE GUNFIRE]
[PEOPLE SCREAMING]
KENEELY:
Okay, everybody, you just...
Just cool it.
FARREL: Get down, everybody!
Just stay sown.
We're police officers.
Get down.
Stay down.
Get down. Get down, everybody.
Stay down.
[GUNFIRE]
[WOMAN SCREAMING]
Yada, yada!
[PEOPLE SCREAMING]
MAN: Right there!
Hold it!
I'll blow her damn head off.
[GUNFIRE]
-What do you got?
-Come on, they're up here.
-Come on, let's get them.
-No, hold it, hold it.
We got them. Let me get help.
We got them. Just sit tight.
I'll make a call.
I'll make a call.
[SIRENS WAILING]
FARREL: Where
the hell's everybody else?
They're back at the market.
What the hell happened?
A whole bunch.
The bastards responsible
for it are up there.
-Where are they?
-I don't know.
There're three storeys.
Any way out the back?
Yeah, my partner's
on the fire escape.
Okay, you two take the back,
we'll go up the front.
All right,
now give me a minute.
There's two of them,
they're both armed.
-FARREL: What happened?
-There's no one up there.
What are you talking about
"no one up there"?
The place is clean.
Well, we saw them
go into the building.
Well,
you may have seen them go in,
but I guess you just
didn't see them go out.
Nobody came out
of the building.
Let's check some of
these other buildings.
Look, man,
they're in the building.
Okay, look, you guys
just stay here, right?
And pay attention, we're gonna
go back out front
and double check.
-That's a waste of time.
-Hey,
while we're farting around
an empty building,
they'll have time
-to get out of the area.
-You just stay right there
and fart around for
another five minutes.
Now watch it.
KENEELY:
Thinks it's a waste of time.
Hey, get out of here.
FARREL:
[WHISPERING] Hey, rummy,
don't shoot me.
[WHISPERING] Okay, down there,
it's a wrap. I checked it.
-Are you all right?
-[MORE GUNFIRE IN DISTANCE]
FARREL: Any lights in here?
At least got one of them.
Hmm.
I think the mayor brothers
should've got the other guy.
HYATT: Are you guys all right?
Sure, yeah,
yeah, where's the white dude?
-Where's the guy who ran out?
-CARLETTI: He got away.
He got away? What do you mean?
How could he get away?
You guys were
standing right there.
He had to go right by you.
I don't know. We fired at him.
I guess we just missed him.
Just missed him? What,
are you guys
playing with yourselves?
Why didn't you run after him?
Why aren't you pursuing him?
We heard shooting,
thought you needed help,
so we went around the front.
-You guys let him get away.
-Come on.
-This is crazy.
-These puppets over
here let him get away.
What do you mean
"it's crazy"?
Why didn't you see
them in the first place?
Look, I went through every
room and I didn't see nobody.
You're pigs, man.
What, are you a scared
of getting shot or something?
Hey, hey,
calm down, will you?
-I ought to shoot
you in the head.
-You don't know nothing.
Cool it,
they don't know nothing.
Come on,
we were trying to help.
-Easy, easy, easy.
-Trying to help me.
We almost got killed.
-[SIREN WAILING]
-You pigs.
Get out of here, you...
Will you get
the hell out of here!
Come on,
Keneely, let's go, man.
It's all right.
They don't know nothing.
Come on, let's go. Atta boy.
Cool down, man, cool down.
They don't know nothing.
You guys had a busy night.
Look, I know how much
guts it took to go
after those guys.
You know who I've been
on the phone with all morning?
The commissioner.
The goddamn commissioner.
I got my ass
reamed for half an hour.
For Christ's sake,
the middle of
the goddamn market.
Do you know how many people
could have been killed?
Look, if I'm not mistaken,
there were three guys
-shooting their guns at us!
-Yeah, he's right, Sarge.
I was there. I saw it all.
What happened
to that junkie
girl and Marvin?
They were out on bail
an hour after you
brought them in.
-Who sprung them?
-Weldman.
He was there with
his $300 dollar suit
and enough bail money
to empty every
jail in California.
Anybody search the joint?
We got a warrant
in the morning,
which is more
than you guys did.
The place was clean.
How come Carletti and Hyatt
aren't in here now?
They weren't shooting
at people
in the middle of
the goddamn market.
Oh, yeah, they were just
letting the guys
who were doing
the shooting get away.
-I didn't hear that.
-I said, they were just
-letting the guys get...
-I didn't hear that!
Now, we've been
getting some complaints
about some perverts
in the men's room at the park.
-What?
-Why don't you guys,
take a few days
and check it out.
Aren't you gonna
offer us a cigar now?
Look, wise-ass,
you are not
the only cop in the world!
Yeah, you know everything
and everybody's
a shit except you.
Well,
let me tell you something.
I am not a king, see.
I don't control
everything that goes on
around here, understand?
I know some things stink.
Well, what do you
want me to do about it?
I got a goddamn
phone on my desk
and it goes upstairs.
And when it rings I
answer it and say,
"Yes, sir." Period!
The, uh...
The captain wanted me
to tell you guys that
as soon as things
calm down a little,
he's putting you
guys up for a citation.
Along with Carletti and Hyatt.
Why'd you guys go in that
massage parlor in
the first place?
You knew you
shouldn't been in there.
Yeah, we didn't
know when we went in,
so you can give our deepest
apologies to Mr. Rizzo,
and you can give him
a kiss on the butt.
Hey, sucker.
Hello, Mr. Sink.
Mr. Soap. Hello, urinals.
How you doing, Kilroy?
Ah, a bunch of toilet seats.
Looks like my office.
Mr. President.
[TOILET FLUSHING]
KENEELY: Yoo-hoo.
Sweetheart,
if you're a sex maniac,
I'd cool it.
The place is
crawling with cops.
My goodness.
You wanna hear
something funny?
When I first
became a cop, right,
my mother used to, uh,
wash my uniform
shirts by hand.
So I used to tell her,
"Hey, Lucy, you're crazy.
"I can send
them to a laundry."
And she said,
"No, no, no, no, no.
"It gives me pleasure."
She loved doing them.
Crazy lady.
So, my first beat,
they had me checking locks
on the West Side.
All night long,
checking dumb locks
on warehouses nobody wanted
to break into in
the first place.
You know, I checked
every fucking
lock three times.
Once wasn't good enough.
Every fucking
lock three times.
Then they had me,
uh, standing in front of
the Museum of Natural History,
16 hours a day.
Never sat down once. Uh-uh.
Nobody ever stole that museum
when Keneely was
standing in front of it.
[SIGHS] I did
everything they asked, man.
Never complained.
Didn't care what it was.
Did it better
than anybody else.
And I loved it. I really did.
You see, now I come
home at night, right?
Thinking,
"Hey, you did the best
job of checking locks
"and standing in
front of a building
out of anybody in the world."
And I'd find a fresh
pile of clean shirts
my mother had ironed for me.
I don't know,
maybe we should quit.
I think you're right.
We could be good
bad guys, you know?
Pays better. Better hours.
More cooperation
from the police.
Well, the sarge said it.
It's Rizzo, man.
He owns the massage parlor,
Marvin works for Rizzo.
That hooker, what's her name?
-Jackie.
-Yeah.
Her lawyer is Weldman.
Marvin's lawyer is Weldman.
Weldman works for Rizzo.
There's a white guy
running around the streets
with a load of dope
in his apartment.
Nobody wants to bust him.
And here we are in a shitter.
Why? Because Rizzo
makes a phone call
and puts the heat on.
Tell me something, how come
Rizzo's out
there running around
getting rich and you
and me we're in the toilet,
huh?
[LAUGHS]
You know,
fact of the matter is,
we, uh, get off here at 5:30,
and can't nobody complain
if we just happen
to drift around
the streets together.
Hey, how many Z's
in Rizzo, one or two?
Two.
You know,
he belongs in here, not me.
Yeah, well, that's the way
the tickets fall, partner.
KENEELY:
We're gonna nail that guy.
FARREL: We gotta
be cool, though.
The captain wants
us off the streets.
KENEELY:
Yeah, well, we'll just have
to stay on the sidewalk.
Champ, how you doing?
[BELL RINGING]
Excuse me.
How you doing there, Mr.
Rizzo?
-My name's Farrel.
That's Keneely.
-So what?
Don't you wanna know what
we're doing here?
I've got a feeling
you're gonna tell me
even if I'm not interested.
FARREL: You figure right.
We're the Vice cops.
No, really?
Hey, you know,
we're tired of
working in the toilets.
Well,
nobody starts at the top.
KENEELY: Tell me, you always
get this excitable?
Well, my doctor
tells me to take it easy.
I, uh, carry too much weight.
Besides, I think I pay enough.
I don't have to worry about
two hungry cops
out for themselves.
FARREL: Don't you wish
it was that easy, pal.
You can't buy us,
and you know it.
-Oh, I'm all choked up!
-You sound it.
Two of your boys got
snuffed the other night
and you're looking at the
cowboys who planted them.
Only, one of them
got away, didn't he?
Yeah? My boys, huh?
-Yeah.
They buy your dope for you.
-I don't sell dope.
What, do you give it away?
FARREL: I figure we busted up
a score for you
and you know what
else I'm betting?
I'm betting you
gotta score again,
big and fast.
Bad bet.
KENEELY:
And we're gonna be there
when you do, fat boy.
Good for you. [LAUGHS]
When was it that I made this
alleged drug connection?
-Three days ago.
-Three days ago,
I was in the hospital.
I have a heart condition.
-You can check on that.
-Okay, I will.
You guys been watching
too many moving picture films.
Does that kid belong to you?
He belongs to me.
You really think
you're hot stuff, don't you?
At least I'm not small-time.
What do you tell your kids
you do for a living?
[LAUGHS] Oh,
come on, stop it, huh?
My kids are
well-fed and they're happy.
They live in a big, big house.
They get everything they want.
What do you guys have, huh?
You want me to feel ashamed?
Because of what?
'Cause some broad
takes off her top in a club?
I don't see my customers
hiding their eyes in
their hands, huh?
Why? Because some
John wants to spend
a few nice
minutes with a trick
in his hotel room?
What's so bad about that, huh?
What are you
saving yourself for,
your wedding night?
You guys sit in
your public toilet,
you got it all
figured out, right?
I got where I am
by having punks
like you for breakfast.
I'll tell you something.
There's one big difference
between you and us.
That's a relief.
Yeah, and you know what it is?
You're greedy, man.
You want it all.
And all we want is you.
Come and get me.
We sure made
mince meat out of him.
You know, that grease-ball's
acting too confident.
He's not Fred Astaire.
He's just not that smooth,
you know?
We gotta flush him out.
Please,
do not use the word "flush,"
in these premises.
He's gonna make
a move soon, I know it.
Well, let's hassle
him a little bit.
We gotta bust the Electra.
He'd choke if we
busted the Electra.
Yeah, so would the captain.
Yeah,
well, that's her problem.
That's funny.
I thought it was our problem.
FARREL:
Is that the one that does
the trick with the cigarette?
KENEELY: That's the one.
Whew! Dynamite talent.
-Sensitive girl.
-Who? Do you know her?
I can't forget her.
Oh. Hey, she got a friend?
Oh, here he is now.
How you doing?
What's the Vice doing in here?
What do you mean?
We just come in here
to get a little culture.
And watch the girl
with the big jugs.
Give these guys a couple
of drinks on the house.
No,
let me say this about that.
Uh, we like to,
uh, pay for our own drinks.
Thank you very much.
You're not even
supposed to be here.
Oh. He says we're not
supposed to be here.
Then what are we
supposed to do?
We supposed to sit right here
and watch the girl
with the big jugs do the trick
with the cigarette.
That's a good idea.
-Thank you very much.
-You're welcome.
Uh, sir? We're gonna stay.
You know you're not
supposed to be here.
What do you mean by that?
Just because,
we're Vice Squad,
I mean, just 'cause we're,
you know, Vice,
don't mean that we
can't come in here
and get some
good entertainment.
Say, officer, are you aware
that that young lady
has her mammary glands exposed
to this entire congregation?
Is that legal, sir?
-Is it?
-Where's your cabaret license?
-Just knock this shit off.
-Where's your cabaret license?
It's on the wall.
Why isn't it over the bar
where it's supposed to be?
Ah, these freakos, man.
These freakos.
It's too dark up there,
I need a little light.
-Hey, partner, light, light.
-Flying in light.
Can't see it.
Long chair to see it.
Uh, sir,
we're from the Vice Squad
and my friend wants
to read what's
going on up there,
to see if it's
legal for that lady
to be doing what's she's doing
in front of all these people.
-What do we got?
-We got a cabaret
license in this bar.
Wrong again.
Everything seems to
be in order, my friend.
So it's okay.
You tell Mr. Rizzo that
the Smith brothers say hi.
Hey, how you doing?
I haven't seen you since
we busted the place downtown.
Uh, Miss. Miss,
uh, there ain't nobody here.
Wonder what the asshole's
doing coming home so early?
It's just 8:00.
Maybe he don't
wanna miss Gomer Pyle.
Guess we ought to hang around
to see if he
gets any visitors.
[RADIO PLAYING]
And the referee
looking the other way,
he said,
"No, Willis,
you hooked him with an arm."
Willis is still
yelling at Jack.
Pass at the other end.
The Lakers down by 15.
It is 7:00 a.m.
Eastern Time on a beautiful,
sunny California morning,
as we check the freeway.
We got a wrong way
driver on the Ventura.
Wait a minute,
that's cleared up.
The Hollywood
a little bit of slowing
around five minutes
as you go through
the pass in the highlands.
And moving right on
into town very quick.
And we checked the Ventura
as it moves
eastbound from the San Diego,
a stalled truck over
on the right hand side,
not creating
any problem around
Van Nuys Boulevard.
We're presently
on the San Diego
just about Mulhouland
and it's gonna be slow going
from what we can witness here.
There are no obstructions
as far as we can see.
Wake up, dear.
Today is the first day
of the rest of your life.
The Hollywood
a little bit of slowing,
around five minutes
as you go through the pass.
A stalled truck over
on the right hand side,
but not creating any problems.
There are no obstructions
for as far as we can see.
We'll see if
the Panther ready to go out
on the west end
[YAWNING]
[BELL DINGS]
Hey, uh, you recognize
Rizzo's girlfriend over there?
Yeah, he looks familiar.
Who is he?
Imagine you're in the middle
of a bunch of
fruit and vegetables
and somebody's
shooting at you.
That's it.
He must be getting
ready to score for sure.
We gotta do it soon.
-That's very good. Very good.
-Thank you.
You're quite welcome.
Hey, how you doing?
Hey, see you two guys climbed
out of urinals for
a couple hours, huh?
-Hey, you enjoying the fight?
-Yeah, I got good seats.
Hey, we stopped by
your place yesterday.
What place is that?
The Electra. A dynamite house.
-Glad you liked it.
-And saw your friend.
I got a lot of friends.
KENEELY:
Yeah, this is the guy who
buys your dope.
We saw you chatting
with him downstairs.
FARREL: Yeah, you're gonna
score soon, big, huh?
Score?
You guys use a lot
of grown-up words.
Rizzo,
we're gonna close you down.
FARREL:
We're gonna stick to you
like your underwear.
You got my permission to try.
Good, 'cause
we wouldn't wanna
do nothing without
your permission.
I don't blame you.
You guys wanna take regular
seats and enjoy the fight?
FARREL: No, thanks.
-You could learn something.
-Yeah, like what?
I don't know.
It's an interesting game.
You know, you gotta know
what you're doing,
otherwise you get your head
busted playing in there.
-You nervous?
-I don't get nervous.
I've been
working at it too long.
KENEELY: We all know that.
You know what's funny?
What's really funny
is that you two guys
really think
you're doing something.
I mean, you go around
busting $10 hookers,
beating up on faggots.
For what?
For $200 bucks a week, right?
And you act like
Captain Marvel or somebody.
Do you really think you can
sneak around and get Rizzo?
Huh? Is that what you think?
Take a look down there.
You see those little
people all paid to get in?
You see those little
two monkeys in there,
beating their brains
out inside the ring?
You think I got where I am
by letting punks
like you get to me?
-You're playing
with yourselves.
-It's gonna happen, Spanky.
We're gonna bust your ass.
Captain Marvel,
saving the world
by busting $10 hookers.
Watch out for
your cape, Captain.
Make sure it doesn't get
caught in places
it shouldn't be.
-It's gonna happen.
-Shazam.
Two, three, four...
The man's gonna have to be
making a purchase real soon.
We're gonna be
there when he does.
What if he spooks and gets
somebody to make it for him?
-Where are we then?
-Look, you're putting
out that kind of bread,
I don't care who you are,
you're gonna be there
to do the tasting or smelling.
We're gonna press
that guy till he falls.
He's gonna wash his face,
we're gonna give him the soap.
I'm with you,
brother, I'm with you.
I'm also hungry.
You want a burger?
-No, get me a pack of gum.
-Yeah.
Hello, honey,
you looking for a good time?
Hey, how you doing, Mama?
-Fifty.
-Fifty, huh?
For a good time?
Well, I got $20 for that.
[LAUGHS] You sure
are a cheap honky.
I know that.
-Thirty-five.
-Thirty-five bucks, huh?
Well, I don't want
to negotiate with you,
I got $27.50.
-Can you afford a cab?
-You bet.
Hey, honey,
put that in a bag for me,
will you?
-Coming?
-Here.
Thank you, keep the change.
Oh, it's a spiffy
place you got here.
Yeah, ain't it?
So, what do I get for $27.50?
You get a good time, honey.
Oh, yeah?
Well,
I sure could use a good time.
Why don't you, uh, lie down
and make yourself comfortable?
Okay,
I think I'll just lie down
and make myself comfortable.
-Oh, yeah, that's great.
-I know, honey.
-Oh, that's terrific.
-I know, honey.
Turn over, honey.
[GRUNTS]
-Hello, Keneely.
-[GRUNTS]
Do you know what, Keneely?
I've got a message for you.
[GRUNTS]
From a friend.
He said...
Shazam.
[LAUGHS]
That's all.
Shazam. [LAUGHS]
Can you dig it?
Hey, Farrel.
Hey, partner, I got spiked.
Hey, you, cop you,
I just got raped,
you mother, I just...
Going to sleep on me now, huh?
Part of a steel
building just fell on my head.
Hey, come on,
don't go to sleep on me.
Oh, God.
I gotta get to a hospital,
man.
Oh, no, it's my
fault it happened, man.
We don't even
know who we are, man.
Listen...
We just gotta stay alive, man,
just gotta stay alive.
The captain was very worried
about you guys.
He said he was more concerned
for safety of his men
than with anything else.
And, uh, he said that you two
were carrying your dedication
to the point where you were
endangering your own safety.
KENEELY: Well, we can take
care of ourselves.
Yeah? Look in the mirror
and tell me that, huh?
[CLEARS THROAT]
The captain thinks it's best
if you two were split up.
You know, you are each
experienced Vice officers
and you could really
be helping two newer men.
Then we'd have two good teams
instead of just one.
Well,
what do you want from me?
I'm in the middle
and you know it.
What the hell can I do?
You had to bust
Rizzo's place, right?
You had to follow
him around, right?
Hell, you're good guys,
you really are.
I know how you feel.
Maybe I'd do the same myself,
I don't know.
But you gotta see
where I am in this.
Do you know what they
wanted to do with you?
You wanna know, huh?
Bust you, that's what.
Well, I stopped them
and it wasn't easy.
Now my ass is in a sling
if you guys step
out of line again.
Now, please,
cool it for a while, huh?
You can pick up your new
partners in the squad room.
I understand that vitamin E
will clear this up
almost overnight.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
PARTNER: Well,
you think I ought to have
maybe like
KENEELY:
Uh, you drive wonderfully,
you just really...
-Well...
-Don't get no ticket.
I'll see you later.
Have a good weekend.
KENEELY: You have a good time.
[GROANING]
Mmm-hmm.
-How you feeling?
-Oh, just terrific.
I'm really
getting tired of eating
my lunch through a straw,
if you know what I mean.
[SIGHS]
You know,
everybody got somebody
at the other end of a phone.
The sarge's got the captain.
The captain's got Rizzo,
Rizzo got somebody else.
We're so fucking
alone in this thing,
it ain't even a joke.
Ain't nobody gonna help us,
-you know that, don't you?
-Yup, I know that.
Well, what you
wanna do this weekend?
Sounds like a good idea.
"Then was Jesus led up of the
Spirit into the wilderness
"to be tempted by the devil.
"And when he had fasted
40 days and 40 nights,
"he was afterward hungry.
"And when the tempter came
to him he said,
"'If thou be the Son of God,
"'command that these stones
be made bread.'
"But he answered and said,
'It is written,
"'Man shall not
live by bread alone
but by every word that
"'proceeds out of
the mouth of God.'
"Then the devil taketh Him
up into the Holy City
"and setteth him on
a pinnacle of the temple.
"And said unto Him,
"'If thou be the Son of God,
cast Thyself down.
"'For it is written,
'He shall give, His angels
a charge concerning Thee.'
"'And in their hands
they shall bear thee up
lest any time...'"
He'll miss the part where
they killed the goat.
"Jesus said unto him,
'It is...'"
Wouldn't you think the man
would at least
have had the decency
to stay for the sermon?
The Lord gonna smote his ass.
With lightning.
Come on, Anthony, down here.
Come on,
you sit by your mother.
-I want chocolate chip.
-I want a double scoop.
One chocolate
and one strawberry.
I want chocolate chip.
You can have ice cream
after you finish your lunch.
I don't want lunch,
I want ice cream.
Me, too.
You do like your
mother told you, all right?
What are you looking at?
What are you so quiet for now?
Relax.
Waitress.
-FARREL: Anything yet, man?
-No, not yet.
FARREL: I'm starving.
-Piece of gum?
-Terrific.
-Here.
-You got any ketchup?
KENEELY: Oh, here she comes.
Mr.
Rizzo, sir. Good to see you.
FARREL: Good evening, Mr.
Dynamite.
Very nice to see you.
-May we clean the car for you?
-Check the oil for you?
FARREL: Service with a smile.

KENEELY: Hey, Rizzo,
close your eyes
and make a wish.
FARREL:
He's gotta make his buy, now.
Man, he's got to.
KENEELY: Yeah, but somebody
should tell him that.
[SIREN WAILING]
KENEELY: Hey, how you doing?
BUTLER: Two gentlemen, Mr.
Weldman.
You miserable bastards!
You think you're
gonna get away with this?
Well, you're wrong!
You're so goddammed wrong!
You knew he had
a heart condition.
What are you talking about?
You know, it's gonna be
a pleasure suing you two
for everything you
have or ever will have.
I'll tell you one thing,
you better pray for
his complete recovery.
That's what you better do.
Pray for his
complete recovery.
[SIREN WAILING]
SARGE: He had to suspend you.
What the hell did
you think he'd do?
Uh, you guys want a peanut?
KENEELY: No, I can't chew.
I need some...
SARGE: The commissioner
is just thrilled.
Oh, he is delirious!
You know,
Rizzo's a heavy contributor
to the Saint Agnes Orphanage
and he's also a member
of the Directors
of the Civic Opera.
Oh, it's just beautiful.
FARREL:
He had to have a heart attack
right now, huh?
KENEELY: Smart guy.
Made it convenient, huh?
FARREL:
We were gonna nail him, man.
He was getting ready
to score, I know it.
I hope he dies.
You know I did
everything I could.
Say, why don't you guys
come in out of the rain, huh?
What rain?
That creep Weldman, right?
That guy's a poser
acting like some lawyer.
He's trying sell to
us that Rizzo's got
a case history of
having a heart condition.
-He ain't got no heart.
-Hey, didn't he go
to hospital once?
-Rizzo told us he went
to the hospital, right?
-Sure.
-When was it?
It was after the shoot-out,
right?
-Yeah.
-It was during the shoot-out.
-That, that was his alibi.
-Hey, what is that?
A guy goes to
the hospital every time
he's gonna score?
-You getting any message?
-Getting a lot of messages.
-We're dumb, that's it.
-I'm not hearing any of this.
FARREL: We're dumb.
You know, this isn't
a kid's game anymore.
You guys can get killed!
You're crazy!
You know it?
NURSE: May I help you?
KENEELY: Yes, I'm looking for
Mr. Rizzo's room.
Mr. Rizzo's in 5B1.
Oh, yeah, where's that?
I'm sorry you
can't go in there.
He's under private care.
There are no visitors allowed.
Gotcha. Let's stick around.
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
VOICE ON PA: Dr. Berretto.
VOICE ON PA:
Doctor Janice Spring,
please call the first floor.
KENEELY: Who's that?
FARREL: More flowers.
KENEELY:
Well, I'm getting tired.
Hey, what if we're not right?
I don't even wanna
think about that.
-You want some coffee?
-No.
Boy, you know,
that guy gets
an awful lot of flowers.
Even, uh, for being on
the board of the opera.
Think so?
Yeah. You notice what kind
of flowers they are?
-Flowers are flowers.
-No, no, they're all in pots.
Deep pots.
Something else funny.
People go visit
him and they walk
out with a pot of flowers.
He could give away
an awful lot of flowers,
nobody know what's going on.
Uh, excuse me.
I gotta call my mother.
It's very important.
Thank you.
Hello, can you
give me the, uh,
flower shop downstairs,
please?
Thank you.
Uh, hello, you guys.
This is Mr. Rizzo in 5B1.
Uh, yeah, hey, you guys,
just sent up
a couple of pots of flowers
and, uh...
No, they're terrific.
I love them, but one
of the pots is cracked,
the water's leaking, you know?
It's very messy.
You what?
You didn't send no flowers
today to Mr. Rizzo?
Thank you very much.
You? How can you come in here?
How you doing?
How's he getting along?
Get out of here!
Leave my husband alone.
Excuse me, Mrs. Rizzo,
we just gotta check something
and we'll be gone
in just a minute.
Did you ring, Mrs. Rizzo?
-These men!
-Oh, I'm sorry,
you'll have to leave.
No one's allowed here
except the immediate family.
Well,
that's not immediate family.
That's a creep.
Please get them out of here.
Look, I'm sorry,
but you'll have to leave.
As soon as we
check something out,
we'll be gone in a minute.
Boy, boy, you got a lot of
nice flowers here, Spanky.
-[NURSE SCREAMS]
-THUG: Take it easy.

you got a dead nurse.
Get out.

KENEELY: Rizzo!
Rizzo! Run for it! Go ahead.
Come on,
you run for it, you fat...
Come on, run for it.
Come on, get up and run!
Congratulations,
Captain, I give up.
[LAUGHS]
You got Rizzo, huh?
So, what the hell
do you think you got?
What do you think
the charge is gonna be?
Having narcotics
in a hospital room?
They're not my narcotics.
I didn't bring them there.
Prove I did.
So what next, huh?
I get a year. Maybe.
A year.
So I change my
business address for a year.
Then I'm back.
Meantime, you two slobs
are hanging out in
your sewer making
peanuts and I got a vacation.
I can use a vacation.
Go on.
Pull the trigger, go on.
Complete the job.

I'm sorry, could you please

Yeah, uh, more specific, uh...
Oh, I needed a change,
you know? Change.
Take these, if you could, Mr.
Keneely,
to the personnel department.
It's down the hall.
It's the third
door on your left.
Third door on the left.
Gotcha.
Dr. Bickman would like
to see me in two weeks.
Certainly, Mrs. Rosen.
Two weeks, two weeks...
Tuesday the 23rd at 3:30.
Would that be all right?
Tuesday,
yes, that'll be all right.
I feel terrible.
Thank you, Mrs. Rosen.
Dr. Bickman will see you now.
-Hello, Jackie.
-Hello, Dr. Bickman.
I'll be right with you.
Oh, thanks.
Ah, that's a very pretty dress
you're wearing.
-Thank you.
-Very becoming.
-[CHUCKLES] Here you are.
-Thank you.
You're in the best of health?
I am. Thank you.
You have very beautiful skin.
You know, you really ought
to be complimented
on the way that you take
good care of your skin.
Thank you.
Do you have an appointment?
No.
Well... Well, I'm sorry.
Dr. Bickman's
schedule is rather full.
That's okay. You see,
I had a filling in here
that fell out, you know?
Would you like to
make an appointment?
-No.
-Dr.
Bickman is with a patient.
That's okay. Thank you.
Hey, how you doing?
Just who are you
and what are
you doing in here?
I'm Mr. Keneely and
this here is Mr. Farrel.
-How do you do?
-What's the matter with you?
Coming in,
barging in here like this?
We'd like to talk
to you for a minute.
Don't you see I
have a patient?
How you doing?
Would you like a stick of gum?
We'd like to talk to you
about a girl named Jackie.
Jackie's liable to
get you written up
in all the dental journals.
There's another
office where we can talk.
It's right this way.
-I'll be right back, Mrs.
Storch.
-[MUFFLED PROTEST]
You might even get
your face on the cover.
[MUFFLED PROTESTING CONTINUES]
Take it easy, Mrs. Storch.
KENEELY: Did you
really do it in the chair?
-[LAUGHS]
-I don't know what
you're talking about.
Look, doctor,
please, now wait a minute.
Before we bullshit each other
into the middle of next week,
there's a couple of
things you gotta know.
First of all,
we know who she is.
Jackie? We know why
she comes here every Tuesday
and we know what she does
when she's here.
-In the chair.
-Oh, no, no, no.
How would you know anything
about her or me,
for that matter?
We've had a tap on her phone
for over a month.
Honest.
That's illegal.
I knew we
shouldn't have done it.
You got a wastebasket,
I can throw my gum in?
Yeah,
there's one right over there.
-Doctor?
-Yeah.
Listen, we don't wanna make
any trouble for you, really.
All we wanna do
is get the girl.
Personally, I don't blame you,
'cause she's a knockout.
I'm in love with her,
but we do have to nail her.
I think I don't want
to answer any of
your questions.
Well, look, I'm gonna
make a date with her.
I'm gonna tell her
I'm a friend of yours.
[LAUGHS] You're
no friend of mine.
Well,
I certainly would like to be.
Anyway, she's gonna be
calling you up
to check me out,
like any smart
hooker would, right?
And you're gonna tell her
that
everything's cool, got it?
I'm not gonna do
any such thing.
Listen, do you have a warrant?
-You got a warrant?
-I don't have a warrant.
-Do you have a warrant?
-No, we don't got a warrant.
Well, then, I think you
better get out of here.
Well, we can't do that.
We don't have enough evidence
if we leave now
for a conviction.
It would be
embarrassing if we went
in front of the grand jury
without any evidence.
Embarrassing for me, for him,
embarrassing for you, doctor.
Pictures, televisions will
all be contacting you.
All right, get out of here.
-No.
-Wait a minute.
-I think Dr.
Bickman, here, is right.
-Huh?
I think we ought to leave
and perhaps discuss it
some other time
at a more comfortable place.
I think you're quite right.
-Thank you.
-You're quite welcome.
Where would we
feel more comfortable?
Oh, I don't know.
Maybe the doctor's home with
the doctor's
wife and children.
Beautiful idea.
The man's got class.
Wait. Wait.
All right, all right.
I think you men
are despicable.
Oh, and you're
a Cub Scout, right?
What time you got?
5:45.
Okay,
I'll open the door at 5:55.
You got it.
Nah, make it 6:00.
She's sort of cute.
Terrific.
Have a wonderful time.
I'm gonna sit right
down here and protect.
It's very dangerous work.
How about if I come back
tomorrow morning?
Hello, there.
KENEELY: Hey, how you doing?
Hi. Are you Mike?
Uh-huh.
-Come in.
-Okay.
Would you, uh, like a drink?
No. No, thanks.
This is quite
a place you got here.
Thank you.
Where do you know Dr.
Bickman from?
-Leo?
-Mmm-hmm.
Oh,
we were in the army together.
-Oh. And where are you from?
-Chicago.
Oh, Chicago's a nice city.
Yeah,
if you can stand the weather.
[LAUGHS] Where in Chicago?
What do you mean,
"Where in Chicago?" Chicago.
There's the North Side,
the South Side.
-The Near North.
-The North Side.
Oh. Do you know
where Division Street is?
What are you asking me
all these questions for?
'Cause I think
you're a Vice cop.
Vice cop? What,
is there a cop around here?
Look, I don't want no trouble.
-Take it easy.
-Maybe I'll come
back some other time.
-There are no cops here.
-If I thought
there was cops...
Look, I knew I
shouldn't have come here.
-I told you don't worry.
-Look, I'm a respected man.
-No, it's all right.
-Maybe I'll come
back some other time.
-I don't want any...
-Look, don't worry.
Now, what do you want?
What do I want?
Well, you said 100 bucks.
Well,
100 is for a standard job.
If you want something
a little bit more special,
then that'll cost
a little bit more.
Oh, yeah? How much?
That all depends
on what you want.
What, you got a catalogue?
I'll take
the standard job this time.
Do you want me to
take your clothes off?
No, no, I can just
handle that myself.
Oh.
Is anything the matter?
Oh, no, nothing's the matter.
No?
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
I don't know how
to tell you this,
but you're under arrest.
Oh, shit. Are you kidding me?
No. I wish I was.
It's after 6:00.
Everything okay?
Do you know where
Division Street is?
Division Street,
uh, is in Chicago.
Oh,
yeah, what part of Chicago?
What the hell do I know.
Is everything okay?
-What's the matter?
-Yeah, everything's okay.
I was just asking
a couple of questions.
Jackie, Farrel.
Farrel, Jackie.
How do you do?
Just fine, thank you.
I think your
partner's a prick.
-Thank you.
-So do I.
You better get dressed.
Oh, where's your
trick book, honey?
I don't know what
you're talking about.
She don't know what
we're talking about.
I'll find the trick book.
It ain't there anyplace.
-It ain't there.
-Oh.
Just what the hell
do you think you're doing?
Oh, I don't know what
you're talking about.
It's in that
cushion on the sofa.
Right.
I knew you'd find it.
Well, let's get going, huh?
I have another
appointment at 9:00.
That little trick
kept the rating
of everybody in her book.
How very efficient.
How'd the dentist do?
-"Stinkaroo. Tapioca time."
-[LAUGHS]
I don't have it down here.
What time did we bust her?
-You said after 6:00.
-Okay.
She's got some
lollapaloozas in here,
let me tell you.
Yeah, who have you got?
Gelbart. The guy
from the D.A.'s office.
Yeah? How did he...
$250. That's how he did.
-Man, she was a robber.
-Overcharged. Overcharged.
He should've called a cop.
You bet he
should've called a cop.
It says his specialty
was getting dressed
in her under-clothes.
For $250 he can
wear my underwear.
-Boy,
I didn't write down nothing.
-Oh.
What time did we
start surveillance?
-Oh, about 4:00.
-Okay.
You won't believe this.
Belinki and
Newman made the book.
Those guys from the day shift?
How'd they do?
Good.
Terrific. I wouldn't want
the department
to get a bad name.
[PHONE RINGING]
Farrel, Vice Squad.
You sure?
Yeah. Okay.
Sergeant wants to see us.
Oh, good,
goody, goody, goody, goody.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Would you like to
sit down, Keneely?
-It's okay.
-Sit down, Keneely.
Would you like a cigar?
-Farrel?
-No, thanks, boss.
Would you like a light?
No, no, I don't smoke.
Then what you got that thing
in your mouth for?
I don't know. I...
[SCOFFS]
These cigars are for shit.
I just got
a whole box of them.
Sent away for them
in a mail order thing.
It said they were Havanas.
You know, if that's a Havana,
Castro can keep
the whole stinking country.
-It's a shame.
-Mmm.
Now, I gotta smoke
that whole
stinking box of cigars.
[CLICKING TONGUE]
It's a shame.
About that hooker you busted,
what's her name?
The one just brought in?
-Jackie.
-Jackie. Yeah, yeah, Jackie.
Well, what about her?
Someone made a phone call.
Keneely, are you sure
there was no
entrapment involved?
Yeah, I'm sure.
What kind of phone call?
The phone call doesn't matter.
It's just that this girl
has some friend someplace.
Oh, yeah? Where?
It doesn't matter.
You talking about Rizzo?
You sure there's no chance
that you never heard
her specifically say
what she was gonna
do for the money?
It's Rizzo.
It's the kind of
mistake any cop could make.
Nobody'd be pissed.
Happens all the time.
Judge would be delighted
to throw the case
out in the morning.
You know how
overcrowded the courts are.
All you have to do
is tell the judge
that you never heard
her specifically state
what she was gonna
do for the money.
Then there's not
enough evidence
for a conviction.
Hey, what's so
special about this hooker?
Sure you don't want a cigar?
Well, I'm glad that's settled.
Now, about tonight.
We've had
a complaint about that...
Sit down.
About that fruit
bar The Cavern.
They got a live
show going after hours.
They lock the doors at 2:00
and then they put it on.
You guys go in around 1:30,
and we'll have five cars
and a wagon
there at show time.
As soon as you're
ready to make the bust,
you open the door.
That'll be our signal. Okay?
Okay.
You're sure you
don't want a cigar?
No.
Hey, you know,
this isn't
a picnic for me either.
KENEELY:
Hey, how you doing, ladies?
Shove it.
FARREL:
Hey, look at the Electra.
Rizzo's place is
really smoking tonight.
KENEELY: He's got
a broad in there
who does a trick
with a cigarette.
Hard to believe.
FARREL: I wish we
could bust that place.
We couldn't even keep
one of his hookers in jail.
Big, tough cops.
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]
Hey, would you like a light?
No, no, I don't smoke.
Just a nervous habit.
Very nervous.
No, thanks.
No, thanks.
Mmm-hmm.
Hello, there.
Hello, there.
My name is Stephen.
FARREL: Hello, Stephen.
What's your name?
Pat. Patrick.
Are you alone?
Pat's with me.
Her loss.
Come on,
Patricia, let's dance.
[LAUGHING DRUNKENLY]
Hey, Scheherazade,
I think we better dance.
Are you kidding me?
Come on,
you wanna stand around here
for another half hour?
With your badge
on your forehead?
This place isn't
even gonna close up.
-I'll lead.
-Oh, yeah? Come on.
You wanna dance, I'll lead.
You wanna dance, I'll lead.
Hey, did you do that?
Do what?
Somebody pinched my ass.
[LAUGHING] Are
you shitting me?
[MEN LAUGHING]
You smell pretty sweet.
What kind of cologne you use?
I wish 2:00 would get here.
I'm starting to like this.
Would you wanna do
one of those dips?
Mind if I cut in?
KENEELY: Yeah.
Well, why don't
you ask if Pat minds.
-Do you mind?
-I mind.
Pat minds.
Hey, now look, sweetheart,
him and me are very tight.
We're gonna pick
out drapes next week.
I don't think I like you.
You're holding my wrist.
-I don't think I like you.
-You said that already.
We don't want any trouble.
Oh, she's so strong.
Why don't you just
leave us alone, okay?
I like it when they're strong.
Why don't you put
that away, okay?
Oh,
are you gonna hurt me, lover?
Hey, what's your problem?
Take it easy, chickadee.
Oh, what's the matter, lover?
Aren't you gonna hurt me?
This is getting out of hand.
Let's get going.
No, you aren't going anywhere!
-You get the door.
-Okay, okay, okay.
Everybody cool it.
Cool it, we're police.
Cops here.
-Cool it, we're cops.
-Now there's just
no trouble here.

That creepy faggot took
a hunk out of my leg.
Geez.
What's it all coming to, man?
What's it coming to?
Are you okay?
Yeah, yeah.
And that's what I
call a nightmare.
-Ugly. Ugly.
-You guys okay?
Oh, yeah, yeah,
I thought we lost these.
Hey, you better have
a doctor look at that.
Oh, yeah, thanks a lot.
[LAUGHING] Boy,
those kooks are something.
I think I'm gonna fart.
"Dear Mom and Dad.
How are you?
"I am swell. A fag ate my leg.
-"Your son, Michael."
-[LAUGHS]
Oh, boy.
Checking out.
Right.
Hey, they're giving the Rams
six points Sunday.
Take it. Vegas is giving five.
Is that so?
Look, there's a trick book,
the hooker's name is Jackie.
-Can I see it?
-Sure, sure.
Only giving
five in Vegas, huh?
Maybe you're right.
Think I'll bet it.
Don't bet too much.
Hey, this isn't the...
Look, the pages are empty.
It's not
the book I brought in.
It looks like a book to me.
Yeah, well, it is a book,
but it's not
the book I brought in.
Can I have
the one I brought in?
It says here,
"One black
loose-leaf notebook."
That's not it.
All I know is
what it says here.
Look, will you cut the shit?
-Well,
what do you want from me?
-I want the book, damn it!
-He don't know.
-He knows, everybody knows.
Come on, let's go.
What's your name?
Magenta.
-[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
-Magenta?
-Is that your name?
-Yes.
It's your legal name?
No.
Do you mind telling me
what your legal name is?
Connors. Harold Connors.
-[AUDIENCE EXCLAIMING]
-[GAVEL BANGING]
[WHISTLING]
Harold?
Harold, do you always like
to dress up like that?
You know you're
in a fair amount
of trouble, don't you, Harold?
Do you know what they did
to me last night?
No, Harold.
[AUDIENCE YELLING]
What did they do
to you last night?
Put me in a cell
with a whole bunch of animals.
[AUDIENCE CONTINUES YELLING]
[GAVEL BANGING]
From what I hear, Harold,
you and your friends can
take pretty good
care of yourselves.
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
You. What's your name?
Your legal name?
Philip Lampson.
Harold? Harold?
Do you have to
hold Philip's hand
in my court?
Now, do you two
people have attorneys?
I am representing them,
Your Honor.
Oh, Mr. Crosby,
it's nice to see you again.
Thank you, Your Honor.
Do your clients
know their rights?
Yes, they do, Your Honor.
And they know that
they have been violated.
Really, Mr. Crosby?
They have been subjected
to harassment and
brutality by the police.
They have been beaten,
humiliated...
I'm sure they have, Mr.
Crosby.
Do they have bail?
Yes, they have, Your Honor.
I would like to say...
I'm sure you would, Mr.
Crosby.
The defendants are
released on $250 bail.
There will be
a preliminary hearing
two weeks from today.
-Your Honor, I would like...
-I said, two weeks.
Apparently, you
didn't hear me, Mr. Crosby.
I have a full calendar here.
I would like to get through it
before the day is over.
You may leave now.
Oh, and tell your clients not
to break their high heels
on the way out of here.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
The City of Los Angeles
versus Jacqueline Faraday.
Are you Miss Faraday?
Yes, Your Honor.
Mr. Weldman,
are you
representing Miss Faraday?
I am, Your Honor.
Are you the arresting officer?
Yes, Your Honor.
Uh, Kennedy?
Keneely.
Your Honor, I realize
it's a bit unusual
to hold a preliminary
hearing this quickly.
However,
I feel my client need not
have these charges
hanging over her head
any longer than is necessary.
I would like to
thank the court
for expediting the matter.
Certainly.
Your Honor, there is a point
of ambivalence in this case.
Rather than have
Detective Keneely
read his entire report,
to save time, I suggest
we address
ourselves to that point.
Detective Keneely, do you have
any objection to Mr.
Weldman's suggestion?
No.
I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
Could you speak up?
No, no, no, no.
Would you please step forward
and take the stand?
Detective,
did you specifically hear
Miss Faraday
make an indecent
proposition to you?
I'm not sure.
JUDGE:
I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
Could you speak louder please?
I'm not sure.
WELDMAN: Did Miss Faraday
specifically state
that she would perform an act
of a sexual nature
for a specified
amount of money?
-No.
-JUDGE: Louder please.
No.
WELDMAN: Thank you, Detective.
Your Honor, there's clearly
insufficient grounds here.
I ask the case be dismissed.
JUDGE: The request is granted.
And I would like to know why
with so little evidence
this case was
brought before me?
I don't know.
"I pledge allegiance
to the flag
of the United States
of America.
"And to the Republic
for which it stands.
"One nation, under God,
"with liberty and
justice for all. Amen."
Get out of here, man.
Take a walk, take a walk.
-Get out of here.
-What the fuck this is, man?
Go on down the road, man.
[EXHALES]
Okay, he is here.
I have arrived.
Oh, cover that up.
Fifty cents deposit
if you wanna
look at the books.
It's refundable
toward a purchase.
You talking to me?
Got 50 cents right here.
Tails again.
I was interested in
one of your massages.
Have you got a bad back?
Well, it wasn't my back
I was thinking
about getting massaged.
[LAUGHS]
Will you look at that?
Some dudes need
all the help
they can get, huh?
Massage costs $20.
Twenty bucks?
Must be pretty
good for 20 bucks.
We've had no complaints.
-Got some pictures?
-Oh, I certainly do.
Here. Take a look.
Hey, come on. Don't dirty it.
Well, this one here
looks pretty cute.
-What's her name?
-Doris.
Doris. Well, she must
be pretty good for 20 bucks.
-The best.
-Okay.
Point me out to ol' Doris,
I will make history tonight.
Which way?
Do I go in the back?
Usually the back. Which way?
Which way? Come on.
-The room back there.
-The room back there.
Okay,
if you hear an explosion,
you know it's me.
Hi.
How are you, Doris?
Hello.
Well, you're even
prettier than your picture.
You can hang your
clothes on the hangers.
Thank you.
What kind of
massage did you say
I'd get for 20 bucks?
You get a regular massage,
nothing more.
Look at my nose.
Huh?
It's a terrific nose.
Wear it in good health.
It can smell
the Vice cop at 100 feet.
What are you talking about?
I just came in
here to buy a book.
Aw, what are you doing here?
You know you're not supposed
to come around here.
I came to buy a book.
All right,
pick anything you want,
it's on the house.
Thanks.
Don't take your time.
Listen,
honey, if I just wanted
a regular massage, you know,
I would've gone to a gym.
You know what I mean?
If you want something special,
the price is different.
Hey, sugar, just because
I'm a dude from out of town,
don't go treating me
like no yokel, you hear?
How much more do
you have in mind?
A hand job is an extra 10.
Straight lay is 25.
Twenty-five, huh?
Well, I got me
another 25 and, uh...
Hey, Doris, honey.
Yes?
Sorry to have
to tell you this,
but, uh, you're under arrest.
I'll trick for you
if you'll let me go.
Well,
maybe in some other life.
Where you
getting the stuff from?
These are old marks.
I kicked it two years ago.
Sure you did.
Hey, Farrel!
Get out of here, honey.
Keneely!
The girl's a junkie
and she said cutie pie
here is the supplier.
Where's the stuff, Marvin?
-I haven't told him anything.
-Hey, don't be dumb.
Where's the stuff, Marvin?
The broad's full of shit.
I never gave her anything.
-Get out of here.
-Come on, he won't hurt you.
Come on. It's okay.
If the girl's
telling the truth,
you're in a lot
of trouble, Marvin.
Yeah, you're gonna be
in a lot of trouble.
Mr. Rizzo don't like people
bothering his places.
Oh, yeah?
I got a right to
make a phone call.
You don't got
a right to breathe.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
You lay a finger on me,
I'll sue your ass.
I'm laying more
than one finger on you.
There's no stuff here.
Oh, yeah? Well, we'll find it,
won't we, Marvin?
Yeah, I need a warrant.
That creep back there
has got a lot of
dope in his house.
How do you know?
How do I know?
How do I know? I know.
Do you know what time it is?
It's 1:00, Sarge. Why?
Do you think I'm gonna
wake Judge
Morrison for a warrant
at 1:00 in the morning
because you think some guy's
got drugs in his apartment?
Hey, we need a warrant.
And if I wake Morrison
and ask him for a warrant
and it turns out that
you guys can't find anything,
I'd get creamed.
We need a warrant.
The girl in
there has got tracks
on both her arms.
And that fat tub is
holding a ton of dope.
-You think?
-I know.
Not for sure.
What do you want, Sarge?
Reasonable cause.
I want more than your goddamn
hunch before I wake
up Judge Morrison!
Look for
the shit in the morning.
We can get
the warrant in the morning.
In the morning that guy
will be on the streets
before the court house opens,
and he'll clean up
and it'll be your fault.
I'm sorry.
I am not gonna wake
Judge Morrison
at 1:00 in the morning,
period!
KENEELY:
Judge Morrison, period.
I wouldn't wake up
a judge for the world.
FARREL: What's that?
Baby powder.
KENEELY: That's your actual
jackpot, partner.
[GUNFIRE]
[MORE GUNFIRE]
[MORE GUNFIRE]
[PEOPLE SCREAMING]
KENEELY:
Okay, everybody, you just...
Just cool it.
FARREL: Get down, everybody!
Just stay sown.
We're police officers.
Get down.
Stay down.
Get down. Get down, everybody.
Stay down.
[GUNFIRE]
[WOMAN SCREAMING]
Yada, yada!
[PEOPLE SCREAMING]
MAN: Right there!
Hold it!
I'll blow her damn head off.
[GUNFIRE]
-What do you got?
-Come on, they're up here.
-Come on, let's get them.
-No, hold it, hold it.
We got them. Let me get help.
We got them. Just sit tight.
I'll make a call.
I'll make a call.
[SIRENS WAILING]
FARREL: Where
the hell's everybody else?
They're back at the market.
What the hell happened?
A whole bunch.
The bastards responsible
for it are up there.
-Where are they?
-I don't know.
There're three storeys.
Any way out the back?
Yeah, my partner's
on the fire escape.
Okay, you two take the back,
we'll go up the front.
All right,
now give me a minute.
There's two of them,
they're both armed.
-FARREL: What happened?
-There's no one up there.
What are you talking about
"no one up there"?
The place is clean.
Well, we saw them
go into the building.
Well,
you may have seen them go in,
but I guess you just
didn't see them go out.
Nobody came out
of the building.
Let's check some of
these other buildings.
Look, man,
they're in the building.
Okay, look, you guys
just stay here, right?
And pay attention, we're gonna
go back out front
and double check.
-That's a waste of time.
-Hey,
while we're farting around
an empty building,
they'll have time
-to get out of the area.
-You just stay right there
and fart around for
another five minutes.
Now watch it.
KENEELY:
Thinks it's a waste of time.
Hey, get out of here.
FARREL:
[WHISPERING] Hey, rummy,
don't shoot me.
[WHISPERING] Okay, down there,
it's a wrap. I checked it.
-Are you all right?
-[MORE GUNFIRE IN DISTANCE]
FARREL: Any lights in here?
At least got one of them.
Hmm.
I think the mayor brothers
should've got the other guy.
HYATT: Are you guys all right?
Sure, yeah,
yeah, where's the white dude?
-Where's the guy who ran out?
-CARLETTI: He got away.
He got away? What do you mean?
How could he get away?
You guys were
standing right there.
He had to go right by you.
I don't know. We fired at him.
I guess we just missed him.
Just missed him? What,
are you guys
playing with yourselves?
Why didn't you run after him?
Why aren't you pursuing him?
We heard shooting,
thought you needed help,
so we went around the front.
-You guys let him get away.
-Come on.
-This is crazy.
-These puppets over
here let him get away.
What do you mean
"it's crazy"?
Why didn't you see
them in the first place?
Look, I went through every
room and I didn't see nobody.
You're pigs, man.
What, are you a scared
of getting shot or something?
Hey, hey,
calm down, will you?
-I ought to shoot
you in the head.
-You don't know nothing.
Cool it,
they don't know nothing.
Come on,
we were trying to help.
-Easy, easy, easy.
-Trying to help me.
We almost got killed.
-[SIREN WAILING]
-You pigs.
Get out of here, you...
Will you get
the hell out of here!
Come on,
Keneely, let's go, man.
It's all right.
They don't know nothing.
Come on, let's go. Atta boy.
Cool down, man, cool down.
They don't know nothing.
You guys had a busy night.
Look, I know how much
guts it took to go
after those guys.
You know who I've been
on the phone with all morning?
The commissioner.
The goddamn commissioner.
I got my ass
reamed for half an hour.
For Christ's sake,
the middle of
the goddamn market.
Do you know how many people
could have been killed?
Look, if I'm not mistaken,
there were three guys
-shooting their guns at us!
-Yeah, he's right, Sarge.
I was there. I saw it all.
What happened
to that junkie
girl and Marvin?
They were out on bail
an hour after you
brought them in.
-Who sprung them?
-Weldman.
He was there with
his $300 dollar suit
and enough bail money
to empty every
jail in California.
Anybody search the joint?
We got a warrant
in the morning,
which is more
than you guys did.
The place was clean.
How come Carletti and Hyatt
aren't in here now?
They weren't shooting
at people
in the middle of
the goddamn market.
Oh, yeah, they were just
letting the guys
who were doing
the shooting get away.
-I didn't hear that.
-I said, they were just
-letting the guys get...
-I didn't hear that!
Now, we've been
getting some complaints
about some perverts
in the men's room at the park.
-What?
-Why don't you guys,
take a few days
and check it out.
Aren't you gonna
offer us a cigar now?
Look, wise-ass,
you are not
the only cop in the world!
Yeah, you know everything
and everybody's
a shit except you.
Well,
let me tell you something.
I am not a king, see.
I don't control
everything that goes on
around here, understand?
I know some things stink.
Well, what do you
want me to do about it?
I got a goddamn
phone on my desk
and it goes upstairs.
And when it rings I
answer it and say,
"Yes, sir." Period!
The, uh...
The captain wanted me
to tell you guys that
as soon as things
calm down a little,
he's putting you
guys up for a citation.
Along with Carletti and Hyatt.
Why'd you guys go in that
massage parlor in
the first place?
You knew you
shouldn't been in there.
Yeah, we didn't
know when we went in,
so you can give our deepest
apologies to Mr. Rizzo,
and you can give him
a kiss on the butt.
Hey, sucker.
Hello, Mr. Sink.
Mr. Soap. Hello, urinals.
How you doing, Kilroy?
Ah, a bunch of toilet seats.
Looks like my office.
Mr. President.
[TOILET FLUSHING]
KENEELY: Yoo-hoo.
Sweetheart,
if you're a sex maniac,
I'd cool it.
The place is
crawling with cops.
My goodness.
You wanna hear
something funny?
When I first
became a cop, right,
my mother used to, uh,
wash my uniform
shirts by hand.
So I used to tell her,
"Hey, Lucy, you're crazy.
"I can send
them to a laundry."
And she said,
"No, no, no, no, no.
"It gives me pleasure."
She loved doing them.
Crazy lady.
So, my first beat,
they had me checking locks
on the West Side.
All night long,
checking dumb locks
on warehouses nobody wanted
to break into in
the first place.
You know, I checked
every fucking
lock three times.
Once wasn't good enough.
Every fucking
lock three times.
Then they had me,
uh, standing in front of
the Museum of Natural History,
16 hours a day.
Never sat down once. Uh-uh.
Nobody ever stole that museum
when Keneely was
standing in front of it.
[SIGHS] I did
everything they asked, man.
Never complained.
Didn't care what it was.
Did it better
than anybody else.
And I loved it. I really did.
You see, now I come
home at night, right?
Thinking,
"Hey, you did the best
job of checking locks
"and standing in
front of a building
out of anybody in the world."
And I'd find a fresh
pile of clean shirts
my mother had ironed for me.
I don't know,
maybe we should quit.
I think you're right.
We could be good
bad guys, you know?
Pays better. Better hours.
More cooperation
from the police.
Well, the sarge said it.
It's Rizzo, man.
He owns the massage parlor,
Marvin works for Rizzo.
That hooker, what's her name?
-Jackie.
-Yeah.
Her lawyer is Weldman.
Marvin's lawyer is Weldman.
Weldman works for Rizzo.
There's a white guy
running around the streets
with a load of dope
in his apartment.
Nobody wants to bust him.
And here we are in a shitter.
Why? Because Rizzo
makes a phone call
and puts the heat on.
Tell me something, how come
Rizzo's out
there running around
getting rich and you
and me we're in the toilet,
huh?
[LAUGHS]
You know,
fact of the matter is,
we, uh, get off here at 5:30,
and can't nobody complain
if we just happen
to drift around
the streets together.
Hey, how many Z's
in Rizzo, one or two?
Two.
You know,
he belongs in here, not me.
Yeah, well, that's the way
the tickets fall, partner.
KENEELY:
We're gonna nail that guy.
FARREL: We gotta
be cool, though.
The captain wants
us off the streets.
KENEELY:
Yeah, well, we'll just have
to stay on the sidewalk.
Champ, how you doing?
[BELL RINGING]
Excuse me.
How you doing there, Mr.
Rizzo?
-My name's Farrel.
That's Keneely.
-So what?
Don't you wanna know what
we're doing here?
I've got a feeling
you're gonna tell me
even if I'm not interested.
FARREL: You figure right.
We're the Vice cops.
No, really?
Hey, you know,
we're tired of
working in the toilets.
Well,
nobody starts at the top.
KENEELY: Tell me, you always
get this excitable?
Well, my doctor
tells me to take it easy.
I, uh, carry too much weight.
Besides, I think I pay enough.
I don't have to worry about
two hungry cops
out for themselves.
FARREL: Don't you wish
it was that easy, pal.
You can't buy us,
and you know it.
-Oh, I'm all choked up!
-You sound it.
Two of your boys got
snuffed the other night
and you're looking at the
cowboys who planted them.
Only, one of them
got away, didn't he?
Yeah? My boys, huh?
-Yeah.
They buy your dope for you.
-I don't sell dope.
What, do you give it away?
FARREL: I figure we busted up
a score for you
and you know what
else I'm betting?
I'm betting you
gotta score again,
big and fast.
Bad bet.
KENEELY:
And we're gonna be there
when you do, fat boy.
Good for you. [LAUGHS]
When was it that I made this
alleged drug connection?
-Three days ago.
-Three days ago,
I was in the hospital.
I have a heart condition.
-You can check on that.
-Okay, I will.
You guys been watching
too many moving picture films.
Does that kid belong to you?
He belongs to me.
You really think
you're hot stuff, don't you?
At least I'm not small-time.
What do you tell your kids
you do for a living?
[LAUGHS] Oh,
come on, stop it, huh?
My kids are
well-fed and they're happy.
They live in a big, big house.
They get everything they want.
What do you guys have, huh?
You want me to feel ashamed?
Because of what?
'Cause some broad
takes off her top in a club?
I don't see my customers
hiding their eyes in
their hands, huh?
Why? Because some
John wants to spend
a few nice
minutes with a trick
in his hotel room?
What's so bad about that, huh?
What are you
saving yourself for,
your wedding night?
You guys sit in
your public toilet,
you got it all
figured out, right?
I got where I am
by having punks
like you for breakfast.
I'll tell you something.
There's one big difference
between you and us.
That's a relief.
Yeah, and you know what it is?
You're greedy, man.
You want it all.
And all we want is you.
Come and get me.
We sure made
mince meat out of him.
You know, that grease-ball's
acting too confident.
He's not Fred Astaire.
He's just not that smooth,
you know?
We gotta flush him out.
Please,
do not use the word "flush,"
in these premises.
He's gonna make
a move soon, I know it.
Well, let's hassle
him a little bit.
We gotta bust the Electra.
He'd choke if we
busted the Electra.
Yeah, so would the captain.
Yeah,
well, that's her problem.
That's funny.
I thought it was our problem.
FARREL:
Is that the one that does
the trick with the cigarette?
KENEELY: That's the one.
Whew! Dynamite talent.
-Sensitive girl.
-Who? Do you know her?
I can't forget her.
Oh. Hey, she got a friend?
Oh, here he is now.
How you doing?
What's the Vice doing in here?
What do you mean?
We just come in here
to get a little culture.
And watch the girl
with the big jugs.
Give these guys a couple
of drinks on the house.
No,
let me say this about that.
Uh, we like to,
uh, pay for our own drinks.
Thank you very much.
You're not even
supposed to be here.
Oh. He says we're not
supposed to be here.
Then what are we
supposed to do?
We supposed to sit right here
and watch the girl
with the big jugs do the trick
with the cigarette.
That's a good idea.
-Thank you very much.
-You're welcome.
Uh, sir? We're gonna stay.
You know you're not
supposed to be here.
What do you mean by that?
Just because,
we're Vice Squad,
I mean, just 'cause we're,
you know, Vice,
don't mean that we
can't come in here
and get some
good entertainment.
Say, officer, are you aware
that that young lady
has her mammary glands exposed
to this entire congregation?
Is that legal, sir?
-Is it?
-Where's your cabaret license?
-Just knock this shit off.
-Where's your cabaret license?
It's on the wall.
Why isn't it over the bar
where it's supposed to be?
Ah, these freakos, man.
These freakos.
It's too dark up there,
I need a little light.
-Hey, partner, light, light.
-Flying in light.
Can't see it.
Long chair to see it.
Uh, sir,
we're from the Vice Squad
and my friend wants
to read what's
going on up there,
to see if it's
legal for that lady
to be doing what's she's doing
in front of all these people.
-What do we got?
-We got a cabaret
license in this bar.
Wrong again.
Everything seems to
be in order, my friend.
So it's okay.
You tell Mr. Rizzo that
the Smith brothers say hi.
Hey, how you doing?
I haven't seen you since
we busted the place downtown.
Uh, Miss. Miss,
uh, there ain't nobody here.
Wonder what the asshole's
doing coming home so early?
It's just 8:00.
Maybe he don't
wanna miss Gomer Pyle.
Guess we ought to hang around
to see if he
gets any visitors.
[RADIO PLAYING]
And the referee
looking the other way,
he said,
"No, Willis,
you hooked him with an arm."
Willis is still
yelling at Jack.
Pass at the other end.
The Lakers down by 15.
It is 7:00 a.m.
Eastern Time on a beautiful,
sunny California morning,
as we check the freeway.
We got a wrong way
driver on the Ventura.
Wait a minute,
that's cleared up.
The Hollywood
a little bit of slowing
around five minutes
as you go through
the pass in the highlands.
And moving right on
into town very quick.
And we checked the Ventura
as it moves
eastbound from the San Diego,
a stalled truck over
on the right hand side,
not creating
any problem around
Van Nuys Boulevard.
We're presently
on the San Diego
just about Mulhouland
and it's gonna be slow going
from what we can witness here.
There are no obstructions
as far as we can see.
Wake up, dear.
Today is the first day
of the rest of your life.
The Hollywood
a little bit of slowing,
around five minutes
as you go through the pass.
A stalled truck over
on the right hand side,
but not creating any problems.
There are no obstructions
for as far as we can see.
We'll see if
the Panther ready to go out
on the west end
[YAWNING]
[BELL DINGS]
Hey, uh, you recognize
Rizzo's girlfriend over there?
Yeah, he looks familiar.
Who is he?
Imagine you're in the middle
of a bunch of
fruit and vegetables
and somebody's
shooting at you.
That's it.
He must be getting
ready to score for sure.
We gotta do it soon.
-That's very good. Very good.
-Thank you.
You're quite welcome.
Hey, how you doing?
Hey, see you two guys climbed
out of urinals for
a couple hours, huh?
-Hey, you enjoying the fight?
-Yeah, I got good seats.
Hey, we stopped by
your place yesterday.
What place is that?
The Electra. A dynamite house.
-Glad you liked it.
-And saw your friend.
I got a lot of friends.
KENEELY:
Yeah, this is the guy who
buys your dope.
We saw you chatting
with him downstairs.
FARREL: Yeah, you're gonna
score soon, big, huh?
Score?
You guys use a lot
of grown-up words.
Rizzo,
we're gonna close you down.
FARREL:
We're gonna stick to you
like your underwear.
You got my permission to try.
Good, 'cause
we wouldn't wanna
do nothing without
your permission.
I don't blame you.
You guys wanna take regular
seats and enjoy the fight?
FARREL: No, thanks.
-You could learn something.
-Yeah, like what?
I don't know.
It's an interesting game.
You know, you gotta know
what you're doing,
otherwise you get your head
busted playing in there.
-You nervous?
-I don't get nervous.
I've been
working at it too long.
KENEELY: We all know that.
You know what's funny?
What's really funny
is that you two guys
really think
you're doing something.
I mean, you go around
busting $10 hookers,
beating up on faggots.
For what?
For $200 bucks a week, right?
And you act like
Captain Marvel or somebody.
Do you really think you can
sneak around and get Rizzo?
Huh? Is that what you think?
Take a look down there.
You see those little
people all paid to get in?
You see those little
two monkeys in there,
beating their brains
out inside the ring?
You think I got where I am
by letting punks
like you get to me?
-You're playing
with yourselves.
-It's gonna happen, Spanky.
We're gonna bust your ass.
Captain Marvel,
saving the world
by busting $10 hookers.
Watch out for
your cape, Captain.
Make sure it doesn't get
caught in places
it shouldn't be.
-It's gonna happen.
-Shazam.
Two, three, four...
The man's gonna have to be
making a purchase real soon.
We're gonna be
there when he does.
What if he spooks and gets
somebody to make it for him?
-Where are we then?
-Look, you're putting
out that kind of bread,
I don't care who you are,
you're gonna be there
to do the tasting or smelling.
We're gonna press
that guy till he falls.
He's gonna wash his face,
we're gonna give him the soap.
I'm with you,
brother, I'm with you.
I'm also hungry.
You want a burger?
-No, get me a pack of gum.
-Yeah.
Hello, honey,
you looking for a good time?
Hey, how you doing, Mama?
-Fifty.
-Fifty, huh?
For a good time?
Well, I got $20 for that.
[LAUGHS] You sure
are a cheap honky.
I know that.
-Thirty-five.
-Thirty-five bucks, huh?
Well, I don't want
to negotiate with you,
I got $27.50.
-Can you afford a cab?
-You bet.
Hey, honey,
put that in a bag for me,
will you?
-Coming?
-Here.
Thank you, keep the change.
Oh, it's a spiffy
place you got here.
Yeah, ain't it?
So, what do I get for $27.50?
You get a good time, honey.
Oh, yeah?
Well,
I sure could use a good time.
Why don't you, uh, lie down
and make yourself comfortable?
Okay,
I think I'll just lie down
and make myself comfortable.
-Oh, yeah, that's great.
-I know, honey.
-Oh, that's terrific.
-I know, honey.
Turn over, honey.
[GRUNTS]
-Hello, Keneely.
-[GRUNTS]
Do you know what, Keneely?
I've got a message for you.
[GRUNTS]
From a friend.
He said...
Shazam.
[LAUGHS]
That's all.
Shazam. [LAUGHS]
Can you dig it?
Hey, Farrel.
Hey, partner, I got spiked.
Hey, you, cop you,
I just got raped,
you mother, I just...
Going to sleep on me now, huh?
Part of a steel
building just fell on my head.
Hey, come on,
don't go to sleep on me.
Oh, God.
I gotta get to a hospital,
man.
Oh, no, it's my
fault it happened, man.
We don't even
know who we are, man.
Listen...
We just gotta stay alive, man,
just gotta stay alive.
The captain was very worried
about you guys.
He said he was more concerned
for safety of his men
than with anything else.
And, uh, he said that you two
were carrying your dedication
to the point where you were
endangering your own safety.
KENEELY: Well, we can take
care of ourselves.
Yeah? Look in the mirror
and tell me that, huh?
[CLEARS THROAT]
The captain thinks it's best
if you two were split up.
You know, you are each
experienced Vice officers
and you could really
be helping two newer men.
Then we'd have two good teams
instead of just one.
Well,
what do you want from me?
I'm in the middle
and you know it.
What the hell can I do?
You had to bust
Rizzo's place, right?
You had to follow
him around, right?
Hell, you're good guys,
you really are.
I know how you feel.
Maybe I'd do the same myself,
I don't know.
But you gotta see
where I am in this.
Do you know what they
wanted to do with you?
You wanna know, huh?
Bust you, that's what.
Well, I stopped them
and it wasn't easy.
Now my ass is in a sling
if you guys step
out of line again.
Now, please,
cool it for a while, huh?
You can pick up your new
partners in the squad room.
I understand that vitamin E
will clear this up
almost overnight.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
PARTNER: Well,
you think I ought to have
maybe like
KENEELY:
Uh, you drive wonderfully,
you just really...
-Well...
-Don't get no ticket.
I'll see you later.
Have a good weekend.
KENEELY: You have a good time.
[GROANING]
Mmm-hmm.
-How you feeling?
-Oh, just terrific.
I'm really
getting tired of eating
my lunch through a straw,
if you know what I mean.
[SIGHS]
You know,
everybody got somebody
at the other end of a phone.
The sarge's got the captain.
The captain's got Rizzo,
Rizzo got somebody else.
We're so fucking
alone in this thing,
it ain't even a joke.
Ain't nobody gonna help us,
-you know that, don't you?
-Yup, I know that.
Well, what you
wanna do this weekend?
Sounds like a good idea.
"Then was Jesus led up of the
Spirit into the wilderness
"to be tempted by the devil.
"And when he had fasted
40 days and 40 nights,
"he was afterward hungry.
"And when the tempter came
to him he said,
"'If thou be the Son of God,
"'command that these stones
be made bread.'
"But he answered and said,
'It is written,
"'Man shall not
live by bread alone
but by every word that
"'proceeds out of
the mouth of God.'
"Then the devil taketh Him
up into the Holy City
"and setteth him on
a pinnacle of the temple.
"And said unto Him,
"'If thou be the Son of God,
cast Thyself down.
"'For it is written,
'He shall give, His angels
a charge concerning Thee.'
"'And in their hands
they shall bear thee up
lest any time...'"
He'll miss the part where
they killed the goat.
"Jesus said unto him,
'It is...'"
Wouldn't you think the man
would at least
have had the decency
to stay for the sermon?
The Lord gonna smote his ass.
With lightning.
Come on, Anthony, down here.
Come on,
you sit by your mother.
-I want chocolate chip.
-I want a double scoop.
One chocolate
and one strawberry.
I want chocolate chip.
You can have ice cream
after you finish your lunch.
I don't want lunch,
I want ice cream.
Me, too.
You do like your
mother told you, all right?
What are you looking at?
What are you so quiet for now?
Relax.
Waitress.
-FARREL: Anything yet, man?
-No, not yet.
FARREL: I'm starving.
-Piece of gum?
-Terrific.
-Here.
-You got any ketchup?
KENEELY: Oh, here she comes.
Mr.
Rizzo, sir. Good to see you.
FARREL: Good evening, Mr.
Dynamite.
Very nice to see you.
-May we clean the car for you?
-Check the oil for you?
FARREL: Service with a smile.

What a touching scene.
He's crying.
It's his birthday.
[LAUGHS]
Cut this cake.
I'm gonna give him a present.
No, let's don't embarrass him.
There we go.
This one's for you, honey.
GUEST 1:
Hey, watch it, watch it.
It cost a lot of money.
-GUEST 2: Who paid of it? You?
-GUEST 1: Of course.
Okay, keep it going.
Pass it down.

KENEELY: Hey, Rizzo,
close your eyes
and make a wish.
FARREL:
He's gotta make his buy, now.
Man, he's got to.
KENEELY: Yeah, but somebody
should tell him that.
[SIREN WAILING]
KENEELY: Hey, how you doing?
BUTLER: Two gentlemen, Mr.
Weldman.
You miserable bastards!
You think you're
gonna get away with this?
Well, you're wrong!
You're so goddammed wrong!
You knew he had
a heart condition.
What are you talking about?
You know, it's gonna be
a pleasure suing you two
for everything you
have or ever will have.
I'll tell you one thing,
you better pray for
his complete recovery.
That's what you better do.
Pray for his
complete recovery.
[SIREN WAILING]
SARGE: He had to suspend you.
What the hell did
you think he'd do?
Uh, you guys want a peanut?
KENEELY: No, I can't chew.
I need some...
SARGE: The commissioner
is just thrilled.
Oh, he is delirious!
You know,
Rizzo's a heavy contributor
to the Saint Agnes Orphanage
and he's also a member
of the Directors
of the Civic Opera.
Oh, it's just beautiful.
FARREL:
He had to have a heart attack
right now, huh?
KENEELY: Smart guy.
Made it convenient, huh?
FARREL:
We were gonna nail him, man.
He was getting ready
to score, I know it.
I hope he dies.
You know I did
everything I could.
Say, why don't you guys
come in out of the rain, huh?
What rain?
That creep Weldman, right?
That guy's a poser
acting like some lawyer.
He's trying sell to
us that Rizzo's got
a case history of
having a heart condition.
-He ain't got no heart.
-Hey, didn't he go
to hospital once?
-Rizzo told us he went
to the hospital, right?
-Sure.
-When was it?
It was after the shoot-out,
right?
-Yeah.
-It was during the shoot-out.
-That, that was his alibi.
-Hey, what is that?
A guy goes to
the hospital every time
he's gonna score?
-You getting any message?
-Getting a lot of messages.
-We're dumb, that's it.
-I'm not hearing any of this.
FARREL: We're dumb.
You know, this isn't
a kid's game anymore.
You guys can get killed!
You're crazy!
You know it?
NURSE: May I help you?
KENEELY: Yes, I'm looking for
Mr. Rizzo's room.
Mr. Rizzo's in 5B1.
Oh, yeah, where's that?
I'm sorry you
can't go in there.
He's under private care.
There are no visitors allowed.
Gotcha. Let's stick around.
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
VOICE ON PA: Dr. Berretto.
VOICE ON PA:
Doctor Janice Spring,
please call the first floor.
KENEELY: Who's that?
FARREL: More flowers.
KENEELY:
Well, I'm getting tired.
Hey, what if we're not right?
I don't even wanna
think about that.
-You want some coffee?
-No.
Boy, you know,
that guy gets
an awful lot of flowers.
Even, uh, for being on
the board of the opera.
Think so?
Yeah. You notice what kind
of flowers they are?
-Flowers are flowers.
-No, no, they're all in pots.
Deep pots.
Something else funny.
People go visit
him and they walk
out with a pot of flowers.
He could give away
an awful lot of flowers,
nobody know what's going on.
Uh, excuse me.
I gotta call my mother.
It's very important.
Thank you.
Hello, can you
give me the, uh,
flower shop downstairs,
please?
Thank you.
Uh, hello, you guys.
This is Mr. Rizzo in 5B1.
Uh, yeah, hey, you guys,
just sent up
a couple of pots of flowers
and, uh...
No, they're terrific.
I love them, but one
of the pots is cracked,
the water's leaking, you know?
It's very messy.
You what?
You didn't send no flowers
today to Mr. Rizzo?
Thank you very much.
You? How can you come in here?
How you doing?
How's he getting along?
Get out of here!
Leave my husband alone.
Excuse me, Mrs. Rizzo,
we just gotta check something
and we'll be gone
in just a minute.
Did you ring, Mrs. Rizzo?
-These men!
-Oh, I'm sorry,
you'll have to leave.
No one's allowed here
except the immediate family.
Well,
that's not immediate family.
That's a creep.
Please get them out of here.
Look, I'm sorry,
but you'll have to leave.
As soon as we
check something out,
we'll be gone in a minute.
Boy, boy, you got a lot of
nice flowers here, Spanky.
-[NURSE SCREAMS]
-THUG: Take it easy.
Watch out!
Take another step,
you got a dead nurse.
Get out.
Leave her here. Get out!
[GUNFIRE]
[NURSES SCREAMING]
[SIREN WAILING]
[CHILDREN SCREAMING]
KENEELY: Rizzo!
Rizzo! Run for it! Go ahead.
Come on,
you run for it, you fat...
Come on, run for it.
Come on, get up and run!
Congratulations,
Captain, I give up.
[LAUGHS]
You got Rizzo, huh?
So, what the hell
do you think you got?
What do you think
the charge is gonna be?
Having narcotics
in a hospital room?
They're not my narcotics.
I didn't bring them there.
Prove I did.
So what next, huh?
I get a year. Maybe.
A year.
So I change my
business address for a year.
Then I'm back.
Meantime, you two slobs
are hanging out in
your sewer making
peanuts and I got a vacation.
I can use a vacation.
Go on.
Pull the trigger, go on.
Complete the job.
