Jackpot! A caravan!

Oh, hey, Eddo. What set off your cranky meter?

Laura, my former sister.

Oh, what happened?

Okay, check this out.

I'm in the college lunchroom, and I'm hanging with Greta and some of her

friends. I mean, they fine, man. Okay.

Well, all of a sudden, Laura walks by, and she drops a fake spider in my mashed

potatoes.

Well, I see the spider, and I start to scream it like an old lady.

I'm just used to beautiful women laughing at me.

You want a pizza?

Yes, sir. Remy, double trout?

That'll be 15 bucks.

All right.

What,

man, no tip?

Oh, oh, oh.

Here, take a caramel.

I'm Rick Matthews.

I went out with your sister a couple times way back in junior high. Yeah,

How's Laura doing?

Oh, she's good. She's real good.

Good, man. Well, uh, tell her hi for me. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. Hold up,

man.

You know, uh, Laura talks about you all the time.

That's it. I never heard of this brother of mine.

Are you serious?

Oh, yeah, yeah, man. I mean, it's Rick this and Rick that. Hey, if you ask me,

I think she's still got a thang for you, you know?

Really? Mm -hmm.

Why didn't she let me know?

Well, you see, Rick, Laura is very, very shy.

You know, and if you plan to get anywhere with her, I mean, you're going

to be more forward.

Is she seeing anybody right now? Oh, yeah, Stefan.

Shut up.

She don't like him.

I mean, it's been over for a long time now, but the poor guy just cannot take

our hands.

Why don't you drop by maybe late Friday night, and then you can do some hitting

of your own, huh?

You know, man.

I think I will.

Thanks, man. Hey, you got it, man. All right. Right on.

Hey,

hey, hey, donuts, everybody.

Enjoy. What's the occasion, Carl?

No occasion.

Can't a guy just bring donuts?

Well, it's just you've been in the precinct for 21 years and you never

in donuts before.

Well, I've been meaning to. I don't suppose this has anything to do with

captain's position they're looking to fill.

Nah, they'll probably give it to Kellner.

Kellner? I mean, nice guy, but he's going nowhere with that eczema.

Everybody in the precinct knows that you are the most qualified.

Good morning, all.

Good morning, Commissioner.

You got a minute? Oh, yes, sir. In here.

Well, I wonder what the Commissioner could want with me.

important job for you. Thank you, sir. I am honored.

I will be the best captain I could possibly be.

Captain? Who said anything about captain?

You're not going to be the new captain.

I'm not, sir. No, sir.

Well, who is?

My son.

Your son? Yeah, Cliff. He's a lieutenant over the 24th. I'm bumping him up. I

want you to be his right -hand man and show him the ropes.

Here he is.

Oh, hi, Dad.

I want you to meet your new captain, Cliff Geist. Cliff, this is Carl

Oh, great to meet you. Oh, same here.

Now, listen, you wonder how anything works around here. Carl's your man.

Look, I'm late for lunch with the mayor. I got to run. Settle in, son.

Well, thanks, Dad. Bye.

Oh, uh... Oh, no.

Well, it's you, Jimmy.

Okay.

Thank you. Oh,

boy, what a morning.

heck of a time figuring out whether I should have decaf or regular. Really?

Why? Well, I was a nervous Nelly, so I thought maybe decaf. But I didn't catch

wink of sleep all night, so then I'm figuring, okay, regular, huh? Get all

pistons pumping.

But then I thought, well, now I don't want to be too pumped up the first day

a new job.

But then I thought, hey, maybe pumped up is good.

What'd you decide?

I'll let you know.

Guy's making his son the captain?

Carl Winslow's a good cop.

I've been loyal through and through.

They just overlooked that.

It hurts.

You are shy.

Long time no see.

Uh -huh. Oh, you know Eddie.

And this is... Stephon.

Right.

And I'm Laura.

Well, of course, you already know that.

What's going on here?

Oh, uh... Rick's an old friend.

Changing your life, baby.

Oh, no, he didn't.

Come on.

Eddie told me that you wanted to drop this guy.

He did?

You did?

Why?

Because he said that you still had a thing for me, baby.

Rick, it's obvious you got some misinformation because, you see...

Laura is my woman. So, basically, you can leave.

Man, you need to take the hit and learn how to let go.

Brother, if I let go, you're gonna be the first to know. Okay, okay, okay,

Wait a minute. Wait. Okay. All right.

Uh, look.

Uh, Rick, I never said that I wanted to drop Stefan.

Stefan, I did not say I still had a fang for Rick.

Why did you tell him that?

It's just a little thing that I like to call payback.

Gotcha.

Oh, you got me.

And now I'm going to get you.

So, uh, you want to step outside?

It's just me and you.

I'll mess up my clothes for that fool.

Let me take you to funky town.

of his nearest and dearest.

Wow.

That'll have a whole book for his friends.

I just have a post -it.

Thanks, guys.

Eddie is gonna be so surprised.

Let me take you to Pocket Town.

Girl, tell me that was not Eddie's little black book.

Oh, it sure was.

Wait till he sees all his ex -girlfriends at his birthday party.

Surprise!

Hello, it's me.

What?

Yeah, okay.

All right, give me a post.

What do you got?

Hey, Cap.

Yeah, what do you got?

That was Stan Fisher, park supervisor.

He said a 15th Street gang is gathering at Mission Park.

Gangs? Oh, wow.

We ought to do something.

What do you recommend, sir?

Oh, well, the captain's manual says that I can call for extra patrol cars, or we

could put the precinct on riot alert, or call in the gang task force.

Maybe I should send in the gang task force.

Let's, of course, you feel their presence might incite a riot. Oh, right.

Let's not send them in.

Eight percent.

Hey, hold on.

Raptors are gathering on the other side of the park.

Captain, the Raptors and the 15th Street gang have been warring for the last ten

years.

Well, let's hope for the best, or maybe they won't spot each other.

They just spotted each other.

Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.

Hey, Cap, both sides are armed, and they're moving towards each other.

Captain, something has got to be done, and it's got to be done now. Okay, okay,

okay, I can...

Send in some extra patrol cars.

Now that I'd have to pull them off that rock concert over at the United Center.

Then again, I've got a potential gang war on my hands here.

Use all the units we can get, Kim.

I can't let two gangs just go to war in the middle of a park.

What'll I do, Carl?

You're the captain, sir.

Yeah, I know, but... If I make the wrong decision, innocent people could get

hurt.

Help me.

Okay, Captain.

If it were me, I would send in four units. They should be low profile, and I

would keep the gang task force standing by.

I'm going to call the Reverend Lawrence Adams.

Calling a minister?

Yeah. He's right across from the park.

He knows both gang leaders pretty well, and maybe he can talk to them to defuse

the situation before it explodes.

Good idea.

Thank you.

So, Brandy, how do you know the birthday boy? I dated Eddie my junior year in

high school.

Well,

that can't be.

That whole year, he dated a girl named Onesha.

Who's Onesha?

You don't know Onesha.

be here.

Bye.

Sorry, I had no idea.

But what am I supposed to do, huh?

Well, if I were you, I would open your presents very carefully.

me like this.

Greta, I never meant to hurt you. I was just trying to get back at Eddie.

Oh, well, you got back at him all right.

I'm sorry I ruined your birthday party.

Yeah, and I'm sorry I ruined your date with Stefan.

I'll call both him and Rick in, and I'll apologize.

Son, I am so proud of you.

Your quick thinking averted a major gang riot, and that is what being a police

captain is all about.

Oh.

Now, listen, I just got off the phone with the mayor, and he's going to give

a special citation.

Oh, no, no, Dad, that's not really necessary. Ah, come on, don't get humble

me. You made your old man proud.

Well, excuse me, I'm going to go do some work here. No, no, no, Carl, Carl,

wait.

Look, Dad, I got something to tell you.

Carl is the real hero here.

What are you talking about?

Well, Carl jumped right into action. He knew what to do.

You mean he helped you out? No, no, no, he bailed me out.

Dad, I couldn't decide what to do.

Tell him, Carl.

Well, it was a sticky situation. I froze like a popsicle.

Gee, Cliff, you've only been at it a couple of days. No, no, listen to me,

I liked working evidence lockup at the 24th.

I was very good at it.

I'm not very good at being captain.

I'm a good cop, but I'm not the kind of cop you are.

Well, son, it seems you've made a decision.

What do you think about all this, Winslow?

Or should I say Captain Winslow?

Eddie,

if you truly love me, you will shred your little black book.

Baby, you know I love you, but it's just that there's so many memories in here

that I just... Memories?

Memories you want to forget, right?

Yes, dear.
