Original subtitles

Tonight, I'm the center. I mean, you know how I feel.

Great. You can take the kid along with you.

Simon, that won't be necessary.

Sounds weird.

Put them off! Just put them off! Yeah, yeah!

Go ahead, do it! Come on, pick me up!

Can't believe I got shot, man.

That thing's just got out of hand if I can bring that kid back. Wait!

In the jungles of Peru, the fight for survival

heightened extensively.

Now, Detective James Ellison is a sentinel in the fight for justice.

Seeing before other thieves.

Sensing what others can't.

An ever -vigilant watchman.

In the war against crime.

You got some kind of death wish here? I didn't know it would backfire like this.

When my ex -wife and I first started to get serious, I burned all the old

letters from all the old girlfriends.

Purification ritual.

No, preemptive strike.

No matter what they say, every woman you're involved with is going to want to

believe that there was no one before her.

What were you thinking of letting her read all that stuff?

Jim, I actually thought that honesty would strengthen our relationship. I'm

stupid. I'm stupid.

Yeah, yeah. Well, how detailed were these diaries?

Jim, I'm an anthropologist.

Detailed. Jim, can I see you a minute?

Yeah, sure.

Say something.

Your love life is criminal.

You've got to destroy the evidence.

What's up?

Ryan called in sick. I'm a man short for the Dawson Quinn escort team.

I was hoping you could take Ryan's place and ride up front with Quinn on the

transport vehicle.

Look, Tim, I know how you feel about Quinn.

But right now, you're the only one I can pull off the roster.

You don't have a problem, do you?

No. No problem at all, sir.

Tim?

Simon, what do you want me to say about this, huh? I mean, you know how I feel.

All right, look.

This whole thing shouldn't be anything more than a milk run.

I'll ride up front with Quinn. Why don't you take up the rear of the convoy?

Do you mind taking up the rear of the convoy?

No.

Great. You can take the kid along with you.

For what?

Because he'll talk your ear off. The distraction will do you good. Simon,

won't be necessary.

Humor me on this one.

His name was Gil Brody. He was only 24 years old and on his way to becoming a

good cop.

That was a cop. Kind of watched out for me when I was just starting out.

I wanted to do the same for his son.

That's how it happened.

Quinn and his gang, they busted open the Federal Reserve.

Got trapped inside with half a dozen hostages for five million bucks.

I was assigned to the negotiating team as was Brody.

We negotiated for 12 hours.

Finally got Quinn to agree to a trade, hostages for a cop.

Jim, you sent in a rookie?

I was supposed to go in.

But Brody wanted to prove something to his father. He convinced me to let him

take my place. All it was supposed to be was an exchange.

So what happened?

We screwed up.

I screwed up.

Quinn managed to get out through a storm fan back, though.

Took Brody with him.

Three hours later, we found the body in the trash bin. Oh, man.

I was wondering why you'd tell us all morning.

I don't suppose there's any point in apologizing.

I am sorry about what happened, Brody.

That thing's just got out of hand. If I can bring that kid back. Wait.

Why don't you just save it?

What happened to the restaurant?

It disappeared.

Those five nuns.

David, 1 -5 -0 -1.

So good to see you.

Get back to me as quick as you can.

Thanks.

Have we got an ID?

It's not your captain, Jim. We think he's okay.

It's been a while, Mara. How you been?

Working too hard, but you know what that's like.

You know Sheriff Tennyson, don't you?

I don't think so.

Detective Ellison.

This is Blair Sandberg.

What have we got here?

The guy on the gurney is a pilot. The rest of them walked away.

The chopper came down in the gorge.

See those trees down there?

Well, God and good deeds must have been on your captain's side, because that's

just about all there is that could have cushioned his fall.

As you know, the five million never showed up.

We think they're headed for wherever Quinn had the money. We're going to

out in my wilderness team. They've got a couple of good tracking dogs.

All right, let's get on with the search.

It's the kidnapping now, Jim.

And that makes for the federal knot.

Yeah, I understand that, Mara. We're not going to have any jurisdiction problems

here. We're talking about my captain.

Well, good.

Not for all friends and neighbors can get down to business.

The way I see it, we've got to get out the gorge.

Now, the weather and the terrain being what it is, we must be heading due east.

No, I think they doubled back.

Headed up north.

Fakes don't watch it.

Call it a hunch.

Son, I've lived in these hills since before your mother started telling you

bedtime stories. I see nothing to suggest any...

Dublin bag.

Like I said, Sheriff.

Tennis.

Yeah.

Give the K -9 squad Serenityville with me and the FBI just about point Lobos,

would you?

Hang on a minute. You coming with us?

I'm heading up north.

Yeah, suit yourself.

Better have a... rescue unit stand by.

Got a couple of city cops poking around the Northwoods. I wouldn't worry about

Detective Ellison. He was a ranger.

Oh, yeah?

Alone or... If

you change

your mind... Yeah, yeah, I know.

Louise.

It's nice to see you again, Laura.

Hey, Jim, how'd you know they doubled back?

Those cigars that Simon smokes?

He must be carrying them because I can smell the tobacco.

I can follow the scent.

All right, well, let's get going.

Look, Chief, I think I want you to take a squad car back into town, okay?

Come on, Jim, you can't do this alone.

I'm your backup. You need me.

Besides, I'm not a novice at this wilderness thing.

All right?

All right?

All right. All right, now which way is north?

I'm just kidding. I'm kidding.

Right.

Oh,

no, Claire.

Didn't plan this very well, did you?

Didn't plan on crashing in the middle of nowhere.

Sounds like you didn't plan on much of anything.

I don't know. What do you have so far? You screwed over your best friend, got

your pilot killed, and what now?

A little petty larceny?

I don't know, buddy.

Why were you?

I'd be looking for a new line of work, don't you think?

Gwen! Come on!

Stop it. You'll kill him.

So what?

Like you said, we need him healthy.

Oh, she's right.

Wouldn't hurt to have you healthy.

My cabin's well stocked.

All right, we'll get food.

Something warm.

From now on, whatever we take, you're gonna

carry.

Let's go, Banks.

I'm not all dead.

Go!

What else did they take?

I told you, Wade.

Blankets, canned food and canteens.

Oh, and the portable stove.

Damn him to hell.

They come into my house, take what doesn't belong to them.

Well, what are you going to do?

Well, I'm going to find him, and then I'm going to teach him a real lesson.

You don't take from Wade, Rooker.

At least they didn't take the TV.

Authorities have begun a massive search for state fugitive Dawson Quinn.

Quinn is alleged to have hidden the $5 million from the payroll robbery

somewhere in the northern wilderness.

Quinn, who with the aid of a female accomplice... That's who did it. ...is a

daring escape from the Cascade Police, taking a police officer as hostage,

Captain Simon Banks of the Major Crimes Unit.

Big for me.

I won't steal from them.

I figure $5 million, I'll just about square it.

Supposedly them.

Of course it's them. Who the hell else would it be?

This is Deputy Holden.

Sheriff Tennyson's orders are at rendezvous at 0800 hours at Point Lobos.

Roger that. We also have two city cops heading north against the boss's better

judgment.

See, all we gotta do, all we gotta do is let those feds go off on their little

wild goose chase.

And those other three lead us to the money.

Yeah? The tracks all go north, which means that Quinn has to cross the river.

That means he's gotta cross the yellow rock.

Of course, we can't let those other cops lead us to the punch.

Wait.

You can't take out a couple of cops.

I'm talking about five million dollars.

There's no way I'll let anybody get in my way. I will take out anybody that

in my way.

How can you tell?

I can see their track down there.

I'm going to have to trust you on this one, Jim. You know how I am about

heights. Yeah, well, we're going to have to find an easier way down.

This place is just a little too hairy.

What?

Cops.

You sure?

I recognize them from the news show.

Wait, I don't know about this. Look.

There's somebody up there. Besides, everybody's going to think Quinn did it.

See anything?

What's going on? Is that Quinn?

No. Pick some voices.

What if we've got the higher ground and more firepower?

What are we going to do?

Well, we've got to hit the river.

I can't do that, man.

I can't do that. Look, don't worry about it, Chief. It'll be over before you

know it. That's what I'm afraid of. Forget about the jump.

You'll probably drown.

Oh, my God!

You think they're dead?

They are. It's no thanks to you.

Come on, let's go get our money.

Those were gunshots, Quinn.

I know, Lisa, I know.

Don't tell me what I already know.

You think it was hunters?

Hunters? With automatic weapons, right?

If that was the police, what were they shooting at?

Or maybe they're just making enough noise to let me know they're here,

Keep the play -by -play to yourself.

I want your opinion.

I'll give you a yank.

Jim,

who the hell were those guys?

Got me.

I need a couple minutes. My head is killing me, man.

What's going on?

Is your vision okay?

Oh, yeah, yeah. You got pretty well banged up there.

All right.

This is a good place. It's a good shelter.

I'm going to see if I can get back on the trail then, okay? I'm going to

back for you in a little while.

All right.

You going to think less of me if I actually pick you up on that offer?

you some self -serving, uh, spineless goober.

I can live with that.

All right.

Oh, Chief, you stay awake, all right?

And no campfires.

Yeah.

Campfire. What am I gonna burn, man?

Cold and wet is my world.

Hey, if you're really cold, you can have my coat.

Just got to loosen up the ropes here a little bit.

I'm sorry I can't do that.

You know, you can still get out of this, Lisa.

Oh, you really are a piece of work, aren't you, Biggs?

I close my eyes.

No soup for you?

Pour it out.

Told you to pour it out.

I heard what you said.

Or what?

What are you going to do?

Shoot me? Go ahead.

The gun shall not bring anybody with it. Ten miles!

I don't need to use a gun.

Quinn.

Get up.

Get up.

Get up!

Soon as I finish my soup.

Get off him!

I'll shoot you, I swear I will.

Don't try any of that cop psychology on me. It's not going to work.

Do it, baby.

Think about the money. You can't get it without money.

If somebody could have heard, we gotta go.

We'll have our day, you and me.

You can count on it.

Jim, is that you?

Oh.

It's the one.

Jim.

Jim, come on. Is that you?

Please.

Please be you.

Jim.

Jim! Buddy, is that you?

Is that you?

Morning, sunshine.

Where's your buddy?

He drowned, man.

He didn't make it out of that river.

Drowned, huh?

Yeah.

Well, I guess that leaves only you.

We can just tie him up, just leave him here.

We can't take a chance, Dale. We're in too deep.

You can't just kill him.

I could do anything I damn well please.

Look, I want to be rich.

And that means...

Y 'all have to die.

Starting with Mr. Mozart, then.

Is that all right, Wade?

Get out of my way, Dale. Wade.

Get out of my way!

Chief, Chief, it's me.

Settle down.

Settle down.

I heard a shot. What happened?

It's those guys from the river, man. It's from the river, the shot. It's got

be them. Look, they knocked me out, man. They were going to kill me, but they

got in this fight and they were... Whoa, whoa, whoa.

They're moving away.

Close. I recognize the terrain.

This is crazy, Quinn.

Where the hell are we going?

That's a surprise.

You don't like surprises?

My, my, my.

You've been holding out on me.

Nothing I like better than a hand -rolled cigar.

Sorry, I can't offer you one.

Pick it up.

I said pick it up.

That was a present for my son.

Save the sentimentality for someone who cares.

This isn't going to end the way you want it, Quinn.

You know it and I know it.

You're a cop killer.

But the way I see it, you get one chance.

Release me now.

Give yourself up and I will try to make a deal for you.

You got to know that life in prison is better than the death penalty.

And if I don't?

I'll make sure you get the same consideration you gave to Officer Brody.

You can count on that.

You got big ones, Banks.

I'll give you that.

Here's my deal.

You do right by me.

Help me get what I want.

I'll let you live.

Screw up.

You never see your boy again.

Now let's go.

This is it.

You buried it here?

You think of a better place?

Old man used to work this mine.

Used to go down in the shaft when I was a kid.

I knew no one would look here.

Buried it in the wall of the equipment shaft.

Thing damn near caved in on me.

That's why we need him.

You got a lot of work to do.

I hope you're up to it.

Boys depending on you.

You sure we're headed the right way?

Yeah, Todd.

I've been smelling salmon cigars for the last half mile.

They're close.

Anything down here, Queen?

I will lower you down another couple feet on three.

One, two, three.

What are you doing with

this, Queen?

What do you

see?

There's a piece of wood covered part of the wall here. That's it.

Just rip that sucker off of there.

You just hang on to it. We'll pull you out.

Money first.

Money first.

Get me out of here, damn it!

Get me out of here, quick!

Do what he says!

You heard the man.

Do it!

Get him out of there, now!

I said bring him up.

Back up.

Just relax.

Keep breathing, okay?

How you doing?

Never been better. What took you so long?

It's going to hurt a little.

We're going for a little dip in the river.

Well, the good news is I still got the bullet.

Well, the bad news is I've only got one bullet left.

He can't feed the cops. See what he wants.

Yeah, that's me.

What do you want?

Money.

You broke into my house.

You should have stolen from me.

I wasn't very smart.

But I'm going to let you make it up to me.

I don't have the money. They took it into the mine.

That's too bad.

I guess there's no reason for us to carry on this discussion.

See if you can work out a deal.

He can wait us out. He's got more ammunition.

Okay.

Shake hands on the deal.

Your woman comes too.

Let's do it.

I can't believe I got shot, man.

You're going to be okay.

We've got to just get the bleeding under control, okay?

Keep an eye on him for a while.

Jim, what's going on out there?

Put them down.

One, two,

three.

Wade Rooker.

It's going to be a pleasure doing business with you.

My friends call me Quinn.

Well, Wade, let's take care of business.

I think we've got ourselves a real problem here.

close together.

I think you can move.

Yeah, yeah, give me a shoulder.

Come on, come on.

Tommy, give me one of that cash here later.

Why? What are you doing?

Doing a little banking.

It's going to be easier than throwing rocks at a tree.

I bet $25 ,000, Gwen.

You come any closer, it's all covered.

That's my money. Our money.

Give me another wad.

All right.

plan B.

Where is it?

We don't have it. Yeah?

We're gonna fight fire with fire.

I feel an air cut coming from deeper in the tunnel.

Come on, let's go.

No, no, he's not gonna make it. You can move faster without us. I'll stay here

with the kid. Go!

That ought to get her stories.

Come on.

Stay awake, Blair.

Simon, how did it feel when you got shot?

Oh, it was... It hurt like hell.

Well, now they got two choices. Come out and die or stay in there.

And die.

Either way, money's still ours.

Simon, I can't take you as far as this, man. Hang on.

Let's hope Jim found a way out of here.

Don't sweat it, baby.

At this point, time's on our side.

Simon, I can't take any more of this. I've got to get out of here now.

I do, Jim.

Come on. We'll have to chance it. Can you get your arm around my shoulder?

Yes.

Time for us to get paid.

I won't be rich.

Not in this lifetime.

Don't.

Stay there.

It would be so easy.

Jim.

I was wondering... At the very least, we owe the kid dinner.

I mean, even when they were trying to smoke us out.

Kept us cool.

We did okay.

So did you.

You know, Simon, back there with Quinn... If you hadn't been back

You would have done the same thing.

I don't know about that.

I do.

I got something for you here.

See you Saturday, Blair.

Okay.

Hey, Romeo, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought you just made a date with

her.

I did, man. I can't help myself. I got a problem.

Do yourself a favor and don't show your diary this time.

Oh, yeah.

No more diaries for me, man. I'm just gonna wait till I get old enough and

my memoirs.

Yeah, I can't wait for the movie version to come out.

Jim, I'm afraid of heights, man. Help me.

No, you're gonna be all right. I'm not afraid.

Here we go.

I'm not afraid.

Oh, I'm scared. You're fearless.

Jim.

Jim!
