Pacific Blue (1996–2000): Season 3, Episode 15 - Armed and Dangerous - full transcript

Palermo's daughter's been shot at school. So he goes mad trying to find who shot her. He also goes to a gun dealer who he holds responsible because he is not very responsible in making sure that just anyone can get a gun. He learns that it was a student at his daughter's school and that he got the gun from someone he met at the school. So he sends T.C. and Chris undercover at the school, while he sends Victor and Cory to find the dealer.

[Music]

Kevlar condom and nobody safer on a

bully so advice column doesn't check

ten nine and a half still in high school

automatic half point deduction well that

tonsillectomy on him after last week's

so much blood

dad I'm fine okay you should transfer

Jess to where a convent might be

appropriate it's a sign by the grace of

God you won't kill today or yesterday or

the day after that dad you think a stray

bullet can't hit me anywhere

I'm sorry huh it's okay now you know how

I feel every time someone takes a shot

at you

a bullet can travel through that wall

the next classroom through another wall

and still have enough energy to kill a

person in the hallway statistically

you're more likely to die from a gun

then accidentally goes off then one

pointed in anger

I'm sorry sir are we boring you

oh no not at all actually I think I

speak for the whole class when I say I'm

glad we got you guys instead of one of

those motorcycle jerks that'll be enough

mr. Riker don't mind Dean he was voted

most likely to be incarcerated bottom

line here is this if you see a gun

report it Thank You students for your

time

excuse me I'm sorry there's no problem

we've just finished up class issues

nice Titans good morning

is this an intermediate economics yeah

for remedial substitute teachers is that

bullet that hit Jesse it has been wiped

clean of prints no serial number no mrs.

engineering company there are on

Jefferson that's moving so fast nice car

anybody got about as much to do with

real life as you do

okay let's say you're on a date you take

your date to the movies what do you do

do you buy a large popcorn or two small

popcorns is this like one of those

Dangerous Minds moments with the teacher

tricks the troubled student in a helping

improve his point

the answer is no and for two reasons the

first is that Michelle Pfeiffer is much

better-looking than I am and the second

in the movie even the troubled student

was smart enough to realize when

somebody was trying to help him talk

mind if I carry your books hey you guys

know what Jesse's doing I just got shot

how do you think she's doing

she'll be fine it's just a gnarly flesh

wound can't believe I actually hit her

everybody said the shots came from do

Torian do it did he shoot Jesse um I

gotta get going if you guys see Jesse

would you tar I'm sorry she got hurt

bedwetting cyberpunk like you but it's

pretty easy to figure out what happened

the GATT keep your mouth shut and we'll

call it even

I don't have it I threw it in the trash

weapon mr. Cavanaugh was never even

stamped with anything

regulation down to the very smallest

print okay if you don't everyone cross

every T these guns are still getting out

guarantee I'll get to the bottom of it

I'd appreciate it

lot concealing it

road but that's what a party's for to

make you feel better

hook up with a cute bag sorry to be a

drag but the thought of kicking around

acting like idiots forgive me for

interrupting your rant but what just

because you got shot now all your

friends are stupid or things used to do

are dumb you know what I need I need to

know who shot me dr. Josh why what does

he ever deal with it she was standing

far possible gun dealers left back in

third grade three Stinson juvie offer

violent assault at fifteen he shoved a

38 under his shop teachers nose for

giving him a seat on a napkin holder

understands how easy it is to die you

heartburn Harold heartburn salt a deadly

weapon attempted murder for years aq3 in

Texas get this gum off the street

tomorrow we got two black-and-whites on

calls about that what you get when you

around the factory workers license

plates

nothing 16 employees like a church choir

over there you could have stolen these

things months ago at all right listen

Stan I want this guy source thanks for

lunch Matty I'll get you tomorrow okay

man

I page you clock back please the tennis

bar that shot you move on you're not

supposed to sells guns to students it's

too easy to trace back to me worried

about the police worry about me a look

at I need 100 more by tomorrow those

feds get a long-distance tip that you're

lifting guns out of the back of Daddy's

factory

is the last time all right no more up to

this excuse me hi

you're not a student and that's my bet

you like leaving campus

it's not multiple choice sir

[Music]

anything it will talk about yeah just

buy concert tickets from still on for

the dance hall Crashers

no more pretenders made myself you know

don't get pink you bro Chrissie Hynde

sit tender say I'll see you in class

okay

but since you're busy two days ago

every single gun is accounted for my

officers purchas this one on the street

today these four were confiscated for

milk ryo Hinesville one from the locker

of a freshman with a severe emotional

disorder what do you expect me to do

stop making up is that the answer I mean

really mr. Kavanagh without a serial

number how can we tell when a gun is

produced that information gonna help us

track it back to the thief wait Ralph's

notify the ATF not a single weapon is

leaving here with a firing pin from now

on that's right dual shipping's we let

the retail vendors install the firing

pins lowers our margins but it's as safe

as it gets so even if a weapon is stolen

before it's stamped with a number the

gun won't fire

Victor said you're in leather today

mmm-hmm leather pants tight top lots of

jewelry yep my dangerous side peeking

through when can I get a date for that

girl in about 25 minutes so you've made

contact with the gun dealer Harper
