Cobra (1993–1994): Season 1, Episode 2 - Pilot: Part 2 - full transcript

My name is Robert Scandal Jackson
and in a little while, my life will change.

- Dallas here.
- Not good. New face. Maybe brain damage.

- My name is Danielle Lapoint.
- Cobra paid the bill, why?

- It's a fund that will hire you.
- Cobra helps victims that no one will help.

5 years ago, your father,
Scandal Jackson, was murdered,

Your father's partner, Jake, killed the killer.
We do not believe your father's killer is dead,

A man does not say no to
catching his father's killer.

- Do not overanalyze your mistakes.
- I'll probably try, Dad.

The new victim was named Thomas Nelson,
Head of a water bottle company, Jungle Rain.

The imprint belongs to Lieutenant Colby Mccollan.
Is that Mccollan? They never get out of here.

Mr. Baticelli, We have a problem.
Did you say I was dead?



It's perfect.
Go to your own funeral.

You sound like Scandal Jackson.
It's me, Uncle Jake.

Are you saying my father was corrupt?

Cobra Episode 1 (Part 2)

- What are you doing here?
- Good morning, What are you doing here?

Scandal...
I'm sorry Uncle Jake.

- Scandal. We should solve it together.
- No! That's my case.

Since when? Say something...

Is that your father with Wayne Baticelli?
Did he receive money from the mafia?

- I'm sorry.
- Not here.

Dallas and I want to help...

So far I have got, a new face,
a funeral, and a dead uncle.

The only thing I could find
were lies and deception,

now I just wanted to run from
the past, as far away as possible.



My father was my eternal
companion, but now I was alone.

My brain played me a kitty,
I only got closer to my home.

- Suddenly I was standing right in the backyard.
- Sold! To the man with the blue hat.

- What happens here?
Sale of Jackson's last thing.

Next thing. This Brass Marinon watch.
Who will bid first?

2 dollars?

It would please my father at least.
- To over the wheel. Read the text.

To Dad, Life is like sailing,
not overanalyzing your mistakes.

- Sold for $ 10.
- Scandal, vent...

I know your life has changed,
but there's still a killer free,

- I'll probably catch him. For Jake`s sake.
- What about your father?

- You can still bid on his junk.
- Do not bury the truth with your father.

- If you flee now, you will regret it.
- why not?

- New face, new name, no one knows who I am.
- You know who you are.

I'm assuming you're not
here to say goodnight,

- I have decided to help you.
- I am pleased. Come in.

What made you change your mind?

You. You talked about fleeing,
and constantly looking back,

- It's just a saying.
- No, you said something else with your eyes.

- What was it that you turned your back on?
- Nothing.

I disturbed your sleep,
at least I can listen to you.

Ten years ago, my mother was
killed, the killer was not caught,

and after some time, she
was just a forgotten victim,

At first I buried myself in my education,
But the exam certificate did not help.

A bad marriage did not help either,
So I moved to Russia for a year.

What made you stop fleeing?

A lot of tears, a prayer or two, and
some good advice from Quinton Navery,

Now I think her killer can be
found and I can help others too.

- I never got to say thank you for...
- Saving your ass in Alaska.

You just did that by listening.

Just because Jenny Nelson lost her father,
Then it's not certain she will cooperate.

If she wants to get the truth out, then
she's probably going to have to cooperate.

Dallas here. yes ..
yes .. Okay, good.

The samples of the bullet
that killed Jake have come in.

- Military weapons. The bullet cannot be traced.
- Yes, are you a psychic or something?

Maybe Danielle is right, she
thinks you are something special.

Is she? Something special?
She is very secretive.

We all keep secrets.
Maybe you can find out her.

Right now I'm just hoping to find
information about Jenny Nelson.

Sali Cantalupo.
Jenny can probably get more than clues,

- She can give us one of the big fish.
- It's the guy from the picture with your dad.

Yep, and now he's
involved in our case.

I needed Jenny`s help, so
I visited her as Budd Pipe.

- What is it?
- I won it in a dressage competition.

I was 16 years old, and very rebellious.

The last thing I wanted was to
hang out with my dad by stalling.

- Where the biscuit.
- Exactly. I hated it.

But my dad said that if I
persevered, I would be happy about it.

And in the long run, I would
learn to respect horses.

- In the end, I loved horses.
- And respect your father.

- Yes.
- Yes.

- You are a special real estate agent.
- I'm not a real estate agent

My name is Scandal Jackson, 5
years ago my father was murdered.

He was anesthetized with chloroform,
and stabbed to death with a knife.

- The same as with my father.
- Yes.

- Police said it was random.
- No, it was the same killer.

Help me stop him
before more are killed.

- Why should I trust you?
- You only know that yourself.

Everything is top notch, We
transport the water ourselves.

Jenny!
Will there be an efficiency team?

- They're here already.
- Hi there. James Thomas. Order Com.

- It's my co-worker, Sam Antonio.
- Hi.

Jenny, can we just talk?

- These decisions should go through me.
- Savings. My father had liked it.

Yes, but he also likes
to delegate authority.

i own 56 percent of the
shares so we do it my way.

According to the plan here,
will a big order come in tonight?

The plan has changed.
Nothing's coming in tonight.

If you ask me, there are some
who do not want us to interfere.

- Very safe for a little water.
- Unless the water is very worth it.

Lets go.

Well spotted.

- Good security system.
- Yes.

- Give me 3 minutes.
- Thank you.

- Stand still!
- Is that the best you can say?

I enter the building and only
when I touch the laser do I come in.

And then you just say "stand still".

I'm from the Harden Laser security system.
And you have big problems.

What happens here?
We have shown the same question.

I go in, start the alarm, and it takes
an eternity before anyone comes.

Mrs Nelson will be notified tomorrow.

- What's happening here?
- He's from the Harden Laser Security system.

Not security systems.
Order Com consultation.

- He is an efficiency expert.
- And here is not very effective.

Especially not if you have spent
$ 20,000 a month on security.

- Is security just as bad in there?
- Mrs Nelson will receive a report tomorrow.

Lets go.

- We do not need that now.
- They are not efficiency experts.

We have problems.

You said you used assassins
that could not be traced.

- Now I have big problems.
- You do not understand!

- The murders must not be traceable.
- No, you do not understand.

While you and your friends
enjoyed bowling and such,

then I fought alone against
enemies, with only my rifle,

So do not teach
me about efficiency.

Then that's enough!
What will you do about it?

We have tracked them both to
an apartment on the south side.

Kill them both.

Hornachek! Javel!

Those are the goals.
Kill them both.

Oh, sorry. Come on in.
Is on his way to the shower.

It is stuck. Can you help me.

Dallas told me about Jungle Rain.
More than water is shown in there.

Dallas told me you recommended
me to Avery. Thanks.

You are welcome. When he
saw your papers, it was at an angle.

You know everything about
me, But I know nothing about you.

I have nothing to hide.

Harvard University, huh?

- Let me guess, among the top 5?
- yes, minus 4.

- Brother and sister?
- Ross and Margeret.

He works with charity and
she is usually in trouble.

- Your mother was beautiful.
- Yes, and wise.

What about your father?
Danielle?

I did not know him.

Well, that's in.
Oops, am I interrupting?

- I do not think. Does he?
- No.

- What did the laboratory say?
- They have no idea what they're talking about.

- It's clean water.
- I'm sending the rest to my friends in DC.

Why did you do that?
My father always said:

If you do not want to be found,
then hide in the middle of it all.

Investigate this one here. You will
find enough drugs hidden in the bindings.

The story of your father is intriguing.
Not as exciting as the story of yours.

- Are you okay?
- Yes, what have you found out?

- We have checked his fingerprints.
- He died 3 years ago, right?

- Yes, where did you show it from?
- His technique was military.

- Do you mean soldier in the army?
- Or PRU.

Soldiers trained to be
assassins. The kind of.

They can lie in the mud, and feed
on rats while waiting for their target.

- If they managed it, then it was a bonus.
- I thought they were past.

- I thought so too, Until last night.
- Did you take samples of the bottle?

Yes, Scandal was right.

By reusing the bottle, one
can expel pure cocaine.

So they killed Jenny`s father because
he found out they smuggled cocaine.

Yes.
The question is: What do we do about it?

There is only one thing to do when
the opponent is sitting with all the cards.

Kick to the table.

- It's a private club.
- It's just gone public.

I will call back.

I have 2 more men in the area
and you just made a big mistake.

- It was your fault.
- Who do you think you are?

Your new partner. I know all
about how to get the drugs in.

I'm thinking 500,000,
to keep that secret.

You are full of empty words.

Show up with the money at this address,
at midnight, otherwise you're done.

Why not just sit down
with him and a microphone,

and let the police take it from there?
- Then he kills them.

But it's okay if you die?

If you hired me to abide by
the rules, you were wrong.

It's just elemental strategy,
choose your own war zone.

- I have added small adjustments.
- Thermo Scanners.

Made to catch small rats.
- Ironic word choice, Scandal.

- They do not come to hold my hand.
- No, rats swing their tails.

- If something goes wrong, we'll save you.
- If that happens then there is nothing to save.

The welcome committee is here.

I count 4 enemies,
and one is approaching.

Cleared the first - There's
one more on the way to you.

The third is fast approaching.

- What are you? Are you a soldier?
The Frogman Corps.

Come here, kid.

- Pray your last prayer, frogman.
- Move!

- Talk!
- Okay, so pull me in.

Baticelli made an agreement
with the water company,

and we used former
soldiers as assassins,

- One of the assassins, killed Thomas Nelson?
- Are you a policeman?

- I'm getting tired in my arms.
- Baticelli gave the order.

- Who else?
- A Bay City police officer.

- Scandal, do not.
- Talk on.

Baticelli has 30
officers on the bribery list

There was a guy who had to give
notice when the police wanted to strike.

Why would Baticelli kill
an officer he had bribed?

No, he ordered the killing
of an undercover cop.

- This guy?
- Yes, his name was Jackson.

- So Jackson was not corrupt?
- No, he worked for the FBI.

He was close to trapping Baticelli,
the corrupt cop named Jake.

He gave us information about
Jackson so we could kill him.

- Where's Baticelli?
- Down there, I should bring you, alive.

Let's not disappoint him.
Scandal, vent.

Sorry Mr. Baticelli.

Stands!

- Then there's only us left, Karl Smart.
- My name is not Karl Smart.

My name is Scandal Jackson Junior.

- Scandal Jackson...
- That was my father's name too.

Do you remember him?
An officer? As you got killed.

His last task was to stop you.

I'm finishing it for him.
Unfortunately, he does not experience it.

You do not either!

Look me in the eye and think
of me, every day in your little cell.

Here's how to do it. Like yes.

Do you miss your father?
No, just remember him.

Are you staying? Maybe.

Maybe, it sounds
like a possible deal.

New face. With you in the
back, I'll probably help others.

- Appointment!
- Not so fast.

- First I have to borrow 100,000.
- Where do I get that money from?

You can just write
a check, Miss Every.

How long did you know
Quinten Navery was my father?

Long enough, to know that
you have done without his help.

- You're a wise man, Jackson.
- Will not contradict her who lends me money.

What is the money for?

I can not believe you
spent 100,000 on it?

Well then, 60,000 on the
boat, and 40,000 on repairs.

They do not do boats as they usually do.
Come aboard.

We have something for you.

We found the guy who bought
it, so I bought it from him.

She tracked him down,
I persuaded him to sell.

Persuaded, what?
No no, I'm a Democrat now.

Want something.

After some time, I had wind,
in sailing, and a new course.

There are many victims out there.
It was my desire to help them.
