Original subtitles

Hey, baby.

Hey, baby, call the train.

Not exactly the Grand Lotto, little darling. It's just $15 ,000.

Come on now.

I love you.

I love you so much.

It's got nothing to do with all this money.

Because you're the only one who ever believed in me in my whole life.

I know they say money can't buy you happiness, but damn if we ain't gonna

disprove that theory.

I don't think so.

Come on, get out of here.

Where are we going?

Like I was promised, Puritan King.

We're going to Hollywood.

It was for me.

Take a look around.

Just another day in LA.

Anybody

sees

more than me.

Anybody makes me free.

Stop it.

One ear that's down, just another day.

Hang around on station 24.

I want to cruise by the Brooks Place. Brooks Place? What for?

They're tipping some shoulder. I thought we'd take a peek. Wait a second.

That's the house VJTV rented for Blastoff. Yeah, I think that's the one.

I can't believe you're into that nonsense.

Nonsense? That bimbo ho shaking her cans at the TV.

Ginger Del Vecchio is not a bimbo. She happens to be the host of America's

highest -rated cable game show. She's talentless. All she does is hop around

some teeny bikini and tease those poor boys. Well, you seem to know an awful

about it for not being a fan.

She's on every talk show and magazine cover in America. The woman is

overexposed. That's the whole point.

What would Linda say?

She'd say, Huh?

You can look, but you can't touch.

Corey, look over there. What is that?

I don't know

That's the couple that was on the news. The Vincents?

Yeah, they've been last for about two weeks.

They're still alive? Yeah, I think they are.

This is 2PB7. We need an ambulance.

ASAP. Waterline. Off the bike path. Close it to the south pier.

Roger, 2PB7.

Well, it's definitely Jack and Tina Benson.

He came through for about five minutes and passed out again.

Ambulance took him to St. John. It's amazing, Lieutenant.

Nine days without water, no food for over a week. The guy had to catch fish

hand and feed them to his wife to keep her alive.

You think they're going to make it?

Her medic seemed to think so.

Exhaustion, trauma, dehydration, but no apparent brain damage.

Looks like you're going to make it to 6 o 'clock news, huh?

Lieutenant, he's inseparable enough. Maybe you should do all the tackling.

You guys found the body.

Besides... I'd never want to be the one to stand in Victor's light.

A hero's job is never done.

Somebody shoot me.

All right, everybody, come on now.

Oh, Ginger Dad!

Magic, man.

No doubt about it.

If we've got to do it, we've got to do it.

Come on, I've got an idea.

Man,

she is just a dumb mouth, huh?

Ah, yes, indeed.

Her dare drive is a total bore compared to this. I mean, Black Mop is my

favorite show.

After a fake report.

Ginger Delvecchio is one talented young lady.

No more talented than me.

Never said she was.

I'm certainly a better dancer.

Goes without saying, Donna.

That acting part, I think I can do that for you.

Listen, I gotta run some errands. I won't be more than an hour.

This is 1PB9 responding.

1PB9, roger.

This is 2PB7 responding to

211 silent.

Let's move. Roger.

Come on, we got them.

This is 2PB7 requesting backup at Oceanfront Block in Westminster.

Move it! Get her! Do it!

Police! Freeze!

Give it up now!

Hold on. Hold on, little lady. I'm not your little lady.

You're under arrest.

I'm Tyrone Justice, a legal bounty hunter out of Texas.

Thanks for helping me out, boys and girls.

We're just happy that Jack and Tina Benson are all right. They've been

tremendous ordeal over the past two weeks. Did you get that spelling

It's Del Toro. It's two words.

Now, how in the hell was I supposed to know y 'all was the police?

Young lady, I ain't never seen nobody dressed like you in Texas carrying a

unless maybe she was up on stage with her tongue pressed against a brass pole

a gentleman's glove.

What about when the old police freeze?

All I could think about was getting my hands around the neck of Jackie Earl

Bates. Well, he'd be in jail right now if it wasn't for you, Mr. Justice.

I don't think y 'all realize something.

You are looking at the finest bounty hunter this side of Waxahachie, Texas.

Now, if you don't believe that, you call Sheriff Watson, Tucson, or Al Tupelo in

Albuquerque. And he'll tell you how I roped in Quentin McCabe and Righteous

Magruder. I made over 20 grand this month just in bounties alone.

You made $20 ,000 in one month catching bad guys. And I didn't do it riding no

damn bicycle either.

See, the way I figure it, you boys.

Cost me five grand because of Jackie Earl. Look, Mr. Justice, you're a Justin

Santa Monica. While you're here, you'll obey all our laws in pursuing your right

to capture Jackie Bates, including the ones that prohibit interfering with the

duties of a police officer, should we find him first.

That's all nice speeches and everything, but quite frankly, I ain't impressed

with y 'all's police department.

Nor this town. You ain't got a decent strip joint.

They pour beer in your glass without asking, and God forbid you should ask

grits. If you do, you've got to turn your truck around and drive a thousand

miles just to get it. Wow, we're culturally undeveloped.

Yeah, I'd say so.

Let's find this bank robber before he does. Check your sources.

Check all the local honky -tonks.

You got it.

What's the note?

Tom Fitzpatrick, KCNW, Channel 3, Los Angeles' action leader.

What in the hell do you want? Well, I want to do a story on you.

I saw what went on in that alley, you know, and I want to tag along while

here. I want to put you on the 6 o 'clock news.

Ain't no story here, son.

Oh, I think there is.

Big -time bounty hunter all the way from Texas bringing his own brand of justice

to the big city. Oh, you want to make me famous, huh?

Well, sir, that's exactly what we do here in Los Angeles, yes.

Are you ready, Jack?

All right, let's do it. Let's do it.

All right, move. Get out of the way. Move. Out of the way. Move, move, move,

move.

Move, move,

move. Come on. Come on, Jack. Move.

Move. Get her.

What are you doing?

Get her. Get her.

Get her. Get her. Get her.

Get her.

Get her.

Get her.

415 in progress.

415, they must be fighting over Ginger.

This is 2PV7 responding.

Victor, there's got to be another unit closer than we are. That's the way we

ride. Let's go.

No, Jonathan, no.

I'm not doing this show with a bunch of overweight security guards walking

around this property with cheap black T -shirts on. You are going to be able to

see them on camera.

No, no, no, no.

No, we'll shoot around them. Forget it. No.

What are we supposed to do, babe? Huh?

Watch and learn.

Hi.

I'm Ginger Delvecchio.

Hi. I'm Victor Del Toro.

This is my partner.

Corey McNamara.

Hi. It's a pleasure.

Hey, wait a minute.

Didn't I see you on TV last night?

You're the officer that found the Benson.

Right. Actually, well, we both found him. You are a genuine hero.

I'm just doing my job.

May I call you Victor? Sure.

Victor, we're going to need a little liaison assistance while we're filming

Santa Monica here.

Yeah, we help out film companies all the time, right?

Right. Great.

Right.

Don't you say a word.

I know your cousin Jackie Earl's in town, and don't you deny it, because I

already seen him.

Now, if you want to live, you're going to tell me where he's holed up.

Okay?

That girl, what the heck is wrong with you? You're as nervous as a harlot in

church. I could have sworn I saw Tyrone Justice this morning.

Tyrone would not have followed us all the way to California.

Look at this plate.

It's so perfect.

Perfect for what?

For the pictures you're going to take of me, silly.

For Playtime magazine.

Oh, come on, Ernie. I ain't that good a photographer.

Well, with that fancy camera we just bought, you don't got to be.

All right, that's what you want.

That's what I want for us.

Just think of all those adoring men looking at my picture.

You're the only one who can have me.

And then... Once they see my picture in the magazine, they're going to want me

to guest on fake keyparks. And soon I'll be chatting with Letterman and get my

own series.

And moving on to the silver screen, just like Kim Basinger. You know she's from

a small town just like me, except she's from Georgia.

If anyone can do it, Erlene Keene, you can.

I also was thinking about maybe changing my name, because I just don't think

Erlene Keene cuts it, you know?

And I'm going to need some money to buy me a bathing suit.

Well, you got plenty of bathing suits.

I want this special one. It's from the Itty Bitty Bikini Shop. I saw it on

Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. They got suits there that cost $600.

$600 for a couple band -aids?

Jackie, that's where they put the band -aids.

You'll see.

You will see.

Can you believe that Tyrone Justice?

$20 ,000 in one month.

There is something romantic about what he does.

What, capturing dirtbags for money?

I think you're missing the point.

Please, enlighten me.

It's this whole notion of bounty hunting.

You know, coming into a town, tearing a wanted poster off the wall, tracking a

guy down, all in the name of justice.

You mean roaming the Wild West, bringing in the bad guys?

That's it.

Bounty hunting used to be the purest form of law enforcement.

Just you, your weapon, and the guy in the black hat.

You're not thinking about trading in your check for a horse, are you there,

partner?

I wouldn't mind, but I was born about 100 years too late.

Okay, today we're going to haul in one Harvey Messing.

He's a CPA that jumped bail over in Arizona on an interstate bank fraud

He's an accountant.

What about this armed robber, Jackie Earl Bates?

Well, that's a little slicker, son.

But I'll get the sucker.

Tyrone Justice always gets his man, dead or alive.

Well, you gonna participate or you just gonna sit on the sidelines, son?

What do you have in mind?

Harvey Messing.

Maybe. Tom Fitzpatrick, Channel 3 Action News.

You see that video camera right there?

Yeah. Well, you are being videotaped as we speak, sir.

What's this all about? Well, it's about criminal charges, Harvey. It's about the

bell you jumped in Tucson.

Remember that? Lisa, I'll call you later. I promise.

Harvey Matthews.

I've come to take you in.

I stopped by the hospital and saw the Bensons this morning.

Yeah? Did they ask about me? Yeah, but I told them you were too busy getting

ready for your appearance on The Tonight Show.

Very funny.

How are they?

They're a little overwhelmed.

I mean, think about it. Two weeks ago, he was just an auto mechanic barely

getting by, and now they're national heroes.

They are not.

Well, sure they are.

News crews are lining up. They made the New York Times.

Oh, and get this. A couple of networks are fighting to do the movie of the

Any concrete figures?

I saw something for about a quarter of a mil, but...

You know, I actually feel sorry for them.

Yeah, boo -hoo.

No, really. I mean, they just seem so lost and confused by all this publicity

and hype.

They're just simple people. Oh, and get this.

Turns out Tina's pregnant. Get out of here.

Five weeks and she didn't even know.

I guess that kid's future's secure.

I guess so.

I'm running out of time, bro.

Hey, this is not going to be easy enough.

They're going to tighten up security after yesterday's fiasco.

Hey, this is our destiny, dude.

I'm preaching to the choir, man.

All right.

You got any ideas?

Yeah. We attack again, full on. It's the only thing the powers that be are going

to respect.

If we die trying, he'll be it.

Saw you on TV again last night, Officer Del Toro.

I guess this is your 15 minutes.

Excuse me? Andy Warhol predicted that in the future we would all have our 15

minutes of fame. I'd say the clock is definitely ticking.

You know, I wonder who they'll get to play you in the movie of the week.

Well, actually, I was kind of thinking maybe Bruce Willis, you know, or Antonio

Banderas, if they want to keep the character Hispanic. I don't think Bruce

Antonio do M .O .W.

Oh, they will when they find out they get to play Victor del Toro.

Or they're getting Roseanne to play you.

Now, now, let's not bicker.

Victor, I was wondering if you and I could discuss the security arrangements

this afternoon's taping.

Yes.

Oh, I got this composite sketch of the two guys.

Oh, I can't wait to see them.

Ginger, listen, I feel I have to tell you something.

I have a girlfriend.

Really? Is that that?

It was strictly professional.

Nothing happened.

Hey, I wouldn't care if it did.

She's just like all those Hollywood types. Look at her.

Just like the attention.

Whatever.

Hey, hey. I think those are our guys.

What?

We got trouble, dude.

This is 2PB7 requesting backup.

594 suspect heading north on Ocean Way.

I hope this doesn't diminish your status as a genuine hero, Mr. Banderas.

I'll get him.

No, he's just in the middle of the desert.

Give me a beer.

Leave it in the bottle.

You seen this guy?

You sure?

Please,

step

aside.

Please,

step aside.

Your lucky day, Jack Carroll.

Take your best shot.

Step aside, please. Step aside.

Get up!

What's happening, Altua?

John.

I think you deliberately let Jackie Earl

Bates escape.

You know, why in the world would I do something like that?

If you're not in on the bus, you don't collect the reward.

Son, justice is its own reward.

I don't think that's true in your case.

I think you boys are just plain jealous.

Jealous, right.

You see, what I do for a living, y 'all have to do for free. Me, I got money in

the bank, I got an enviable lifestyle.

Even your local TV folks is calling me a genuine hero.

I don't think Tim McCoy thinks you're a genuine hero.

Who in the hell is Tim McCoy?

Apparently he's a cousin of Jack Arrow Bates.

Fought a complaint for you roughed him up the other night in the boardwalk.

I don't know what you're talking about, son.

Be forewarned, Mr.

Justice. The next time you cross over the line, the story they'll be doing on

you will be broadcast in the state prison at Chino.

Listen, I realize that you boys are trying to cover up for your

but if you ain't got nothing better to talk about, you got me a bank robbery to

catch. Get out of here.

Check him out.

I'm starting to enjoy his act less and less.

It'll be my pleasure, Lieutenant.

Where the hell you been?

Guess what?

I got a job!

What kind of job?

I heard that Jonathan Levin guy ran into him. And he said they're always looking

for new people, right? So he auditioned me.

Where are we going? I don't want to run into that Tyrone Justice.

I've got to move again.

No, no, no. We can't leave. I just got this job.

Now, exactly what did you have to do to get this job, Earlene?

Nothing. I danced for him at his house in Malibu. It is so cool. He's got a

and a jacuzzi and three doors down.

He's got two lives there.

Pauly Shore?

Well, no, but I met his maid. She is so nice.

But listen to the best of all.

Guess who Jonathan knows personally?

Tom Cruise.

Better.

Hugh Bentley, the publisher from Playtime Magazine!

Get out of here!

I swear! And he said if I was a good girl, he was going to take me to a party

his house.

Listen, I need to show you my new bathing suit, and then we've got naked

pictures to take right away, okay?

Okay. Okay, thanks very much.

Okay, I think I got a lead on the guys who were stalking Ginger.

You know, Victor, I've never seen such dogged determination from you on a case

before. Hey, I just want to catch these guys and get on with our lives, okay?

What happened, Victor? Did Ginger make catching these awful bad guys a

of your friendship?

She happens to trust me.

Oh, you two bonded that quickly.

No, it's strictly professional.

But she does tell me things.

Like what?

No, I can't tell you. Oh, you are so full of it, Victor. Okay.

You'll be the first to know. What?

Ginger's leaving Blastoff. She's going to be the new regular on Baykeeper.

You can't leave. You have a contract with BJTV.

Oh, I can leave for a network series. Yeah, Baykeeper is not a network show. A

network that's hosted by an animated armadillo does not count.

My attorney says it doesn't matter.

I can't believe you're doing this to me. Oh, come on.

Don't fight me, baby.

You can help me. Don't me. You call VJTV, and you tell them the show's going

be just fine without me. Come on.

I've always, always done all the favors that you've asked me.

Now, have I not?

Mm -hmm. I have. I have, Pumpkin.

I cannot even manipulate him, Pimbo.

I can't believe she's leaving.

And where's your sense of loyalty?

Come on, Jack. What are you expecting that type?

What are we going to do?

We're going to move up our timetable. That's what we're going to do.

You're going to love this.

Guess how long Tyrone Justice has been a bounty hunter.

Ten years?

Try ten weeks. Get out of here.

Licensed by the great state of Texas two months ago.

Apparently he saw a Be a Bounty Hunter ad in the back of Guns and Bullets

magazine. Let me see that.

Oh, hey, get this.

Quentin McCabe and Righteous Pete Magruder, his two big scores.

Guys he knew.

Tyrone Justice has a criminal record?

Yeah, served a couple years of hard time for armed robbery.

That didn't preclude him from becoming a bounty hunter.

Or busting his buddy.

Oh, and Harvey Messing, the accountant he captured when the poor guy tripped

over our bikes? He was a throw -in. Apparently Sheriff, what's his name,

in Tucson?

Knew the guy was living it up here in Venice, so he threw Tyrone a bone.

All right, bring him in before he does any more damage.

Charge him on... On being Tyrone Justice.

I think it's time we asked him to mosey on down the road

I've come back for you, Earlene.

You've got to be kidding me. There is no you in me, Tyrone. When you get to get

that in your thick skull, there ain't no me in you.

The hell there ain't. Oh, God.

I'm with Jackie Earl now because he believes in me, which I might add is

something that you never did.

And what the hell was that last night on TV?

Telling the whole wide world you're a bounty hunter?

I am a bounty hunter.

That is a good one. You ain't never even got a cold.

Who'd you capture?

Quentin McCade and Pete Magruder.

Jeez, Tyrone.

Those are boys you grew up with.

They're outlaws, Earlene, just like Jackie Earl.

Jackie Earl is not a criminal.

Then where do you think all that money come from? The lottery?

As a matter of fact, that's precisely what happened.

He won using six lucky numbers, which were a combination of our birthdays.

Very romantic.

He's a bank robber, Earlene.

I ought to know.

I taught him. He used to be my partner, for crying out loud.

That's how he met you.

I think this is something you need to hash out amongst yourselves, okay?

Well, we're going to hash it out, you know something? And after that, me, you,

and that money are going back to Texas.

You think so? You are a fool.

Well,

it seems that we have another case of hero's dendrome right here in Los

Authorities announced today that the heroic survival efforts of Jack Benson,

sea for 14 days, was a hoax.

Excuse me?

Witnesses have come forward who spotted Benson and his wife Tina at a secluded

cove on Catalina Island during the time they were supposed to be lost at sea.

It is now believed that the Bensons fabricated their entire story in order

cash in on the publicity and the potential movie sale of their adventure.

I don't believe this.

In other news, Ginger Del Vecchio, the sexy host of VJTV's Blast Off, is

to become a regular on Baykeeper, the international hit show set on the

of Southern California.

Producer Jonathan Levin announced today that Blastoff will conduct a nationwide

search for a suitable replacement and is wishing Delvecchio all the luck in the

world as she trades in one bathing suit for another and moves up the

entertainment food chain.

I can't believe that Ginger Delvecchio leaving that stupid show is a news

It is in Los Angeles.

I just feel so ridiculous about the Bensons. They used us. They used

All these news guys report a story the same way, jump into the same

regardless of the truth.

Like that couple who claimed their family dog rescued their lost child.

Speaking of bizarre stories, how are you and Victor doing on the Delvecchio

case? Well, Victor's dedicating the better part of his career to it, but he

thinks he knows how to catch them.

Looking for something?

Not this time, boy.

No, no, no, honey, everything's fine.

Um, where are you?

Out buying lottery tickets.

When do you think you'll be back here?

What's the matter, Earlene?

You don't sound like your old chipper self.

Oh, I'm fine.

Listen, why don't you meet me at noon?

Sure. Where do you want to hook up?

On the boardwalk, that place that we ate lunch the other day.

I'll be there with bells on.

Well done, Arlene.

Come on over here now.

I've got to tie you up.

Tyrone, listen to me.

I need to get to my job dancing on Blastoff. Do you understand that?

This is my big break. And if I do not show up for that tape, then they might

fire me. And then I will never fulfill my destiny here in Tinseltown.

You stop all this silly nonsense.

You are not now, and you are never going to be no damn movie star. You're

Earlene King, cocktail waitress at the Long Neck Bar and Grill.

You know, that is a problem with you, Tyrone.

You ain't got no faith in people.

Gentlemen, we can sit here as long as it takes.

We got your debt to rights.

We might as well tell them. No.

It's dead, Rick. It's never going to happen.

She's moving on.

We need to get Ginger Del Vecchio's bikini top.

Yeah, but what?

It's part of our hazing.

Pine knew our frat at UC.

You mean to tell me this was all a fraternity stunt?

This is no stunt, lady.

This is an important part of our initiation.

This ugly, demeaning, sexist act is condoned by your fraternity?

Obviously, you were never a Greek.

Happens to mean a lot to us, officer.

Enough to break an inner, disturb the peace, and commit an assault?

Yes. No!

Hey, fraternity membership is very important to one's success.

Relationships and business contacts are established. It can last an entire

lifetime. Yeah, well, how about the contacts and relationships you're going

build in the state pen?

Let's be truthful here.

We're looking worst -case scenario probation.

Yeah, maybe we'll even get a judge that likes blast -off.

In this town, it's a possibility.

Cousin Tim McCoy says that Jackie and her leader are staying here.

Let's do it.

I was worried to death.

Who did this to you?

That wrong justice, that Texan piece of crap.

You know where he is now?

He went to kill Jack Ural. Where?

They said they were meeting at noon on the boardwalk.

Waterfront Cafe or something.

Am I under arrest?

No, ma 'am. Good, because I am so late. I have this job and it's really... Whoa,

whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You're a material witness in a bank robbing case,

mention a kidnapping.

You're going to stay right here.

But I...

We'll get something for you.

I'm never going to get ahead.

Party's over, Jackie Arrow.

No place to run, partner.

Are you listening to me, Tyrone? Erling don't want any part of you no more.

Ain't gonna do her no good with a dead man at her side.

What, you gonna shoot me down in the street?

After all we've been through?

I gotta draw the line.

You took my woman.

I always was faster than you, my friend.

That was then.

This is now.

You're under arrest for kidnapping and attempted murder. I dropped the gun.

Call it in.

This is 1PB9 requesting ambulance at Oceanfront Walk and Road, as well as

backup. 211 suspects heading north on Oceanfront.

Well, I'll tell you.

Looks like I called me a bounty. Come on,

everybody.

And now, the moment everyone's been waiting for.

The new host of America's highest... Rated Table Game Show.

The Doesn't Delight Miss Peachy D.

Are we happening?

I said, are we happening?

That's great, y 'all, because it's time to blast off.

I got to tell you, Victor, they got you as a viewer for life.

No. What?

Dick Sargent replaced Dick York, right? Did that hurt the show? Are you wedged?

No. Okay.

Thing is, you just can't damage a quality show like Blastoff.

Don't you try to talk it down Why everyone bags

on my town Look, stand and see It works for me

Take a look around Just another day in L .A.

Just another day.
