Original subtitles

Tonight, on the 10th. Oh, man!

What is that?

Tuskegee Police!

Seems illicit and good. I want to know where to send a harassment target.

You want to go in undercover?

The best chance we have, Captain.

This hotel has beautiful rooms.

There's nothing I'd like more.

My living room is not a public street! Take your hands off me.

You must have a pretty good reason for calling a police vehicle.

Yeah, it was reported stolen.

I don't want to die.

In the Jungle

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

Seeing before others see.

Sensing what others can't.

An ever -vigilant watchman.

In the war against crime.

Well, what can I do for you?

I'm here to see my aunt. She's staying with some friends.

I wrote the number down somewhere.

Boop. I'll get those.

Thanks.

It's literally dead.

Haven't you heard?

Clear.

Hello? Where's the safe?

Where's the safe? I don't know.

Lady, you tell me where the safe is or I'm going to blow you away right now.

tell me where the safe is. It's over there. Show me.

It's here.

No.

Shut up.

Hey, Jim.

Chief, I'm just not in the mood for one of your touchy -feely lectures. I'm not

going to give you a lecture. Look, just because the DA's not going to press

charges, do not take it out on me. Look, I saw the purse. He snatched the purse.

He knocked the old lady down, breaks her hip. What do you want from me?

I said I saw the whole incident from three blocks away. They're going to toss

the whole thing out of court.

Oh, man.

You don't tell that clown to slow down.

He's going to kill somebody around here.

Hey!

Did you see me?

Idiot.

Why didn't I hear you?

Maybe it's because you're so angry at a minor temporary zone -out. Like an

opposite effect of what you're used to. That's about right, Chief.

You know, actually, that is something we might want to take a look at.

I'll find a way to treat your efforts, okay?

Oh, Jim, Jim, Jim. Hey, hey.

If you want to see you, I'm going to throw you in my car.

Jack.

Hey, buddy, back off.

Keep your hands on the floor. We can take you in right now for insulting a

buddy.

You all right, Tim?

Yeah, it's a tough guy's cologne, man. You know, you get more than one

application for a bottle sport.

It's important.

Let me see your badge again.

Stay where you are.

Take a good look.

James Ellison, good. I want to know where to send the harassment charges.

What? Would you want to be hippie for him? Hey, man.

All right, look, I can handle it. You're lucky you're not packing.

Get all your ass in.

I was defending myself!

We're looking to start a fight and creating a public nuisance.

Now stay where you are.

Ellison, I sent another high -rise apartment to phase your job. It went

about a half hour ago.

But the apartment's at the end of Belcher.

Get here as soon as you can. All right, I'm on my way.

I'm going to let this one go. In the future, you just try practicing a little

self -restraint.

Wait a minute.

You almost ran me off the road.

Almost doesn't count, Ace. Now get out of here.

That smells like he bathed in insecticide.

What do you got, son?

Looks just like the other one. A woman comes in looking for a relative.

Next thing this guy knows, he's got a taser in his neck and a kick to the face

for his trouble.

Anything you can tell us about her?

Yeah, a lot.

Blonde? Uh -uh.

Brunette. You guys think it's the same one?

Who knows? Next time it could be a redhead.

Cameras are disconnected.

Phone lines cut. It had to be the same people.

Real pros.

This is Bob, the building manager.

I have had it with you, okay?

Give me a check for the rent, or you are locked out.

Run!

I know my right.

Dan, this is Dr. Black.

You haven't shown up for your last three sessions, and, well, frankly, I'm

concerned. Please call me as soon as you can. I'd really like to hear from you.

I don't even pretend to care.

Assalamualaikum.

Almost doesn't count, hmm?

Password. Come on, give me the password.

The coin they took are worth over a quarter of a million dollars.

It's okay.

It's not your fault.

My father started the collection when he was a boy.

It's a big loss.

Is there anything else missing? My late wife's jewelry.

And how much was that worth?

I'm sorry I have to ask these questions, sir.

A couple hundred thousand dollars.

But it's not the money, detective.

Are you sure you're going to be okay?

Poor guy.

How do these thieves, how do they live with themselves?

Sandberg, we're someone with as much education as you have. You have a lot to

learn. Well, as an anthropologist, I have to wonder what it is about our

that breeds these type of criminals.

I think it's money.

You got something, Jim?

Well, the safe has been wiped clean, just like the others, but they missed

I think we got a partial right here, Captain.

I'll have Frederick check it out again.

All I'm saying is that these kind of crimes, they factor into a bigger

They have always been criminal.

Yeah, no kidding, Jim. But today, more and more people are getting pissed off

their lack of control and the fact that they don't have a healthy place to vent

their frustration.

I mean, like, take this freak show on the road today. Let me see the bottom of

your shoes.

Do you know how many people have been hurt or killed because of road rage?

All right, I'll drive safer in the future. What do you want? Come on, don't

white ass. I'm just making an observation about where today's society

What's the matter? God, you don't smell that?

Yeah, I do.

I mean, the sewers must be on. Oh, no. The guy who keeps pigeons on the roof

next door. It's got to be that.

Oh, where is it?

Where's what?

I hide a key on the door so I don't get locked out.

Like now, huh? Yeah. You got yours?

Yeah. Good God.

Oh, it's open.

Oh, man.

What is that?

That's horse manure, Chief.

Do you have any idea who did it, Jim? Not so far.

Sandberg, you put up any sorority girls lately? Pretty malicious, even for the

ones that he goes out with.

Hey, uh, I gotta talk to you later.

Look, did he really have a key over the door?

Yeah. It just came in from research.

Evidently, a number of the robbery victims had work done at the same

Over on Fifth, Crown Jeweler. This guy's name is Robert Crown.

All right, I'll check it out.

Horse manure.

development. Robert Cram, what can I do for you? We're investigating a string of

robberies.

Several of the victims are customers of yours.

What a shame.

So this is all news to you?

Are you suggesting it should be otherwise?

I'm not suggesting anything. I'm just here to gather information.

This is really beautiful stuff, man. Oh, yes, thank you. I'll do a small

business in aboriginal jewelry.

Well, you know, it's more like a hobby, really.

That's great. Do you mind if I take a closer look? Oh, sure.

We're not here on a shopping spree.

Right. I'll come back later.

That would be a good idea.

Any other employees besides yourself?

Oh, no. It's a one -man operation.

I like it that way. You know, it keeps things simple.

Why don't you take my number if anything occurs to you that might be of any

help. Please don't hesitate to call.

Of course.

Thanks.

Very nice.

Thank you.

Must have a pretty good reason for calling a police vehicle.

Yeah, it was reported stolen, Detective.

Reported stolen?

I'll be damned.

What is it, Jim?

It's that jerk with the bad cologne.

0 -8 -2 -S -R -R.

What, do I gotta call Mounting Hall for this? Come on.

Guy's name is Dan Freeman.

I accidentally cut him off in traffic the other day, and he went postal on me.

Well, Jim, you did get a little crazy with him, too. The guy had it coming.

know that.

All right.

As soon as you get anything on Wolf Prince, let me know.

Great.

Sorry, guys.

Look, just because this Dan Freeman cut you off in traffic doesn't mean it's the

same guy who phoned in the phony stolen vehicle report.

No, I saw him in his car taking off, sir. I called in the registration on the

vehicle. Yeah, the fertilizer fits too, Simon. I mean, Jim was making cracks

about the guy's cologne, how it smelled and stuff like that.

Did you provoke this guy?

I got a little ticked off.

Yeah, well, you've been getting a little ticked off a little too easily lately.

Was I talking to you?

That's it right there.

All right, all right. Look, guys, anybody can have a bad day. All right,

Frankly, Jim.

You know, you're, uh...

Driving skills could use a little improvement.

How many vehicles have you cracked up in the past year? Is that three, four?

No, no, it's the past two years, Simon. And how did this get turned around on

me? Because I expect my guys to set an example.

And there's a lot of myths out there.

Somebody cuts somebody off in traffic, next thing you know, one of them is

They even have a name for it. It's called, uh... Road rage.

Was I talking to you?

Now, as far as his day of freedom is concerned, until you can prove that he

pulled those pranks. They were more than just pranks. This guy's screwing with

me, and I don't intend to let him get away with it. Neither do I, but I want

to back off. Now, are you listening to me?

Let's let the guys down at patrol handle this, all right?

Yeah, Jim, let's let it go, you know? I mean, this isn't exactly major crimes.

Well, it is to me.

The guy takes a swipe at me. He dumps this manure in my apartment.

He gets my car towed. I can get this guy, Simon. I saw the plates on his car,

for God's sake.

Thanks.

What?

All right. All right. No, no. Great. Great. Can you fax me a hard copy of

right away?

One to the DA as well. Save time on the warrant.

Great. Thanks. I owe you one, buddy.

That was Interpol.

You know that partial print you found?

Belongs to Bobby King.

Safecracker. Outstanding warrants in Brisbane and Sydney.

Australia. Had an alias.

Robert Crown.

He refused to make a statement about the robberies. I said he wants us to ship

him back to Australia to face charges there.

Back up and leave without a fight, just like that, huh?

Well, the D .A. is willing to deal on this one. Said he'd waive extradition

reduce the charges and return for information on the gang.

Crown won't admit he had anything to do with them.

Keep pushing his buttons.

Not going to let him leave without drawing a little bit of blood.

The crowd's apartment upstairs is clean.

Thanks, Chief.

What do you got, H?

Looks like an address book.

Business or personal?

You got it all mixed up.

You talked to the landlord, Chief?

Yeah, yeah.

He said that he's been here about a year and always places right on time. There

are a couple of messages on the machine.

It's Leeds. I got your message.

Call me.

Crowd, Leeds.

You got ten minutes, babe.

I run Leeds.

Okay. I've got something to do now. Call me at 11 -shot. Not before.

Who? Another satisfied customer.

Anything on it?

Lane, leave it. Here it is.

Leeds. Trent Leeds.

This guy must move around a lot.

He's got three telephone numbers, seven addresses.

Run them all.

Done.

Leeds was arrested in San Francisco in 1991 for a high -rise home invasion

robbery.

He's been picked up in several other states, but he's never been convicted.

I told you he's just a customer. I don't know anything about him.

Another member of Leeds' team was also a safe man and was set to testify against

him a couple of years back.

Guy wound up short of right hand.

Okay.

So now you know why I'm not talking.

It's too bad the minute you hit the street, I'm going to have to put out the

word that you sang like an opera star.

You get me killed to solve your case.

Turnabout is fair play.

Well, it took my bluff.

He admitted he was working with Leeds on these apartment invasion jobs, but

we'll never get him to testify.

Too scared?

Well, we could probably book Crown for the Thomas burglary and maybe even get a

conviction, but Leeds and the other guys are gonna walk.

I got it right here, sir.

Hey, you guys.

So, uh, you gonna let him do it or what?

I'm just getting there, Chief.

Do what?

I don't like the sound of this. What's going on?

Crown's willing to hook me up with Leeds. The DA allows me to go back to

Australia to face charges there.

You want to go in undercover?

If we want to take down this gang, it's the best chance we have, Captain. How

the hell do you expect to pull this off? Uh, Simon, actually, with Jim's

abilities, he should be able to hear and feel the safe's tumbler falling into

place. I mean, he's done it before and with a little practice. We don't have

time for practice.

I can do this, Simon.

I mean, I've beaten other locks. How much different can this be?

I'll think about it.

You sure you want to go through with this undercover thing?

I thought you were on board, particularly after that little speak

Well, I am, I guess.

What do you mean, you guess?

It's just that everything I'm reading here about Trent Leeds and his crew says

that even if they suspect you're a plant, you're dead.

If they check me out, they're going to find a record a mile long on Bill

Murdoch. Yeah, but the real Bill Murdoch is some howdy -bop cowboy from Texas. I

mean, how are you going to pull that off?

I got a plan, Chief.

I got it all worked out.

Beautiful.

Get out of the car.

Get out of the car!

What is your problem, Freeman?

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

Why are you following me?

I think you're a little paranoid. This is a public street. My living room is

a public street!

Unless you want to get hit with a major, major harassment suit, you'll take your

hands off me.

Hey, buddy, don't let him beat you. Come on, man, come on.

I'm not going to take the high road, Chief. Don't worry.

Consider this a warning, punk.

Any more practical jokes and I'll be on you worse than that cheap bug spray

you're wearing. You got me? By the time I'm done with you, it'll be you who

can't prove a thing.

Sound too cold to take on a high road?

Come

on,

Jim. How many episodes is this?

Five. Did you know that each of the sons had a different mother?

Oh, man.

This is one where Hobbs Singh gets pinned with the murder rat.

Look, man, you can't learn an accent by watching episodes of Bonanza, okay? I

mean, the Ponderosa is not even in Texas, Jim. And Lorne Green is about as

west as William Shatner.

Actually, that's pretty fitting, considering that they're both Canadian,

Will you get a better fix than that there, little Joe?

Yeah, I do.

I got some cousins that live in Fort Worth, and they don't really talk like

down in Texas. So you either got yourself a little lilt, or you got

twang, right?

I don't really see myself as a lilt kind of guy.

Well, then I guess that makes you a twanger kind of guy. Huh, Hollis?

Bill Murdock?

That's right.

He's waiting for us in his suite.

I'm Melanie.

I know.

After you.

Thank you.

I figured you could come on such short notice, Murdock.

Glad to do Bobby Crown a favor.

See, Bobby and I did a little time together down in Australia before they

escorted me out of the country.

It was too bad he had to leave.

He's a practical guy.

Cops were asking him questions I didn't want answered.

He did what I told him to.

Well, I can be on a plane as soon as we're done with the job back to Dallas.

mean, if that's what you want.

Well, let's see if you're as good as Bobby says.

You've got one minute.

And if it takes me longer?

Then we've got a problem.

Oh, easy there.

That seems a little extreme, wouldn't you say?

Nope. You see, I like people that work well under pressure.

42 seconds.

Uh, part two.

The timer inside is rigged to 10 grams of C4.

You've got 25 seconds to disconnect it or, uh, your hands are going to be

hamburger, chocolate, and, uh, you're dead.

Clock ticking murder.

I was going to tell you, man, that, uh, you know, you really are a great person.

I mean, beautiful guy. What do you got, Jimmy?

You know... Show the watch, man. Show the watch.

It's a nice watch. You win the lottery.

What?

Don't be so humble.

Hey, watch.

Everyone, everyone, please, please, quiet down, quiet down. It's been a

mistake. These aren't gifts.

I mean, it's...

Come on.

We don't get to keep them?

What's happening?

Come on, I thought Kim gave it to you.

$23 ,000.

The number of your credit cards were used to make the purchase.

My God, that's got to be all the credit I have in the world. How long is it

going to take to clear this whole thing up? At least 48 hours.

Mr. Ellison, I'd cancel all my cards immediately if I were you.

I plan to.

Was he getting all the help about it? It was my money.

Can you believe this? This bastard maxes out my card.

You think it's a three -bit character?

No, sir, I don't think. I know.

We did a little background check on him, and it turns out that this guy's some

sort of computer genius. He used to design operating systems, and before

worked for a bank card company, so he does have the expertise.

What else did you two find out? Well, he was fired from his last job when they

discovered he'd hacked into the company's accounting database system and

himself a big check.

He claimed it was for royalties he was owed on a program he designed.

Company didn't prosecute?

Well, technically, he was owed the money. They let him go. He turns around,

sues them for wrongful termination.

Word gets around the industry that he's bad news, and now... now he can't get

arrested.

No pun intended.

Come on.

Jim? Marshal's office just delivered this. I signed for it, okay?

Thank you.

What is that?

It's a restraining order.

Against me.

I wouldn't go any closer than that, because if you do, I'm going to have to

the cops.

And also, I'd be real careful of anything you say, because any more

jokes, that'll be you who can't prove a thing.

The hell are you doing here, Freeman?

This is America.

I can hang out pretty much anywhere I want to.

Hey, Allison?

Can I ask you a question?

Do you always park three blocks away to avoid valet parking?

You know, stalking's a crime in this state.

Okay, now wait a minute. You're getting a little too close.

I'm going to count to ten.

And by the time I get to ten, you have to be a hundred feet away from me,

because otherwise I have to call 911.

Now just remember, a hundred feet cuts both ways.

Thanks for meeting me.

You thought it was important?

Yeah, well, uh, I lied.

A little.

Okay, shoot.

Why are men so dumb?

I mean, here I am practically throwing myself at you.

And you don't even know it.

I'm sorry.

I, uh, hear this hotel has beautiful rooms.

Now, Melanie, there's nothing I'd like more.

What?

My wife wouldn't understand, you see.

If it's her, I'll shoot myself.

Hello. Yeah, Jim, it's me.

Hi, honey.

Huh?

Jim. Yo, Jim. Yeah, sure.

Honey, sugar.

That was with Melanie. I'm sorry.

You told me to call. I hope I'm not interrupting anything.

No, no, no. I was on my way home. I got a phone call from her to meet me at

Lee's Hotel, but I got a big problem.

Freeman's here.

Freeman?

What, is that guy following you?

Yeah, Sam, if I wasn't a cop, man, I would pull that putt into a coma.

No, no, look, just calm down, man. Just calm down, all right? I've never seen

anybody get to you like this. Don't let your anger take you out of the game, all

right? Now listen to me. I want you to call Simon. I want you to have him pick

up Freeman.

on a stalking charge. This way we can keep them off the streets until we take

down leaves. You got me?

And tell them we're good for tomorrow morning as well.

All right. All right, I will. Now, you be careful.

Thanks for calling. I love you too.

Right on. Bye -bye.

Well, I've decided not to shoot myself.

Well, good news.

Yeah. Give me your address in Dallas and I'll have somebody shoot her.

Well,

that was fun.

I'll have one of the folks out front call you a cab.

Sweet. But I think I'll walk.

Got to get rid of all my nervous tension.

Suit yourself.

See you tomorrow?

Thanks for the company.

Have a good evening.

Nice driving.

I'm so sorry.

I wasn't even looking where I was going.

You okay?

Yeah, I'll live.

Wow.

Did anybody ever tell you how beautiful you are?

I'm sorry. Can I give you a lift?

Yeah.

Thank you.

You smell so good.

Just what the doctor ordered.

Back to your place?

Maybe tomorrow.

It's getting early start in the morning.

Oh, well.

Uh -huh.

What do you do?

I'm a thief.

I'm kidding.

Actually, I'm in the insurance business.

Oh. I have an early meeting.

Maybe you should take me home.

But you can't stay.

For more than an hour.

Thanks.

Jim, where are you?

I just got to the hotel, Captain.

What's the word on Freeman?

There's still no sign of him. Look, I hate to say this, but I think we should

call off this whole operation.

Not a bad move. I'm inside, sir. It's almost over.

Anyway, it's too late. They're here. Blow them off now and we'll lose them

forever.

All right, darling. I love you. Bye -bye.

Sorry.

I was up all night.

Met somebody nice.

Are you jealous?

Well, maybe.

All right, listen up.

Everybody knows the drill.

You packing, Murdoch?

Six, sir. Nine mil.

Hand it over.

Hey, I got no problem blowing you away right now, Murdoch. You're still on

probation. Well, then you won't get the job done.

Well, at my loss.

Go do your stuff.

It's going down.

Everybody in position?

Sit on the ground.

The rooftop fiber is in place, Captain.

They're in.

Stay alert, ladies and gentlemen.

Hello. Hi.

Do you miss me yet?

Hi.

Did I call you at a bad time?

Yeah, I'm at work.

Can I call you later?

Actually, no. I have to tell you something about your friend.

Good, run out of schedule.

Yeah.

Okay, relax.

We'll be down in a couple of minutes.

Take that, detective.

Detective? Were you not?

I hope so, pal, because if I'm not, you're dead.

Huh? Come on, Melanie, do I seem like a cop to you?

Yeah, well, you didn't seem married either.

Your friend from last night's name is Dan Freeman, right?

Yeah. He said to give you his regards.

Man's a practical joker. I mean, he's dogging me for days.

I thought you just came in from Dallas.

Let's go. I mean, come on, man.

You're coming out.

Looks like they got a good on it.

Damn it.

They know he's a cop.

All right, this is Captain Bass.

Sharpshooters, find your target.

Nobody else move until my face. Now, repeat, do not move in.

What are you talking about? You're not just going to let these guys start

shooting, are you?

Hey, Berger, if we don't take that now, now Jim is dead for sure. Now, trust me,

you know the drill.

Get out of here.

Freeman got the girl.

Hey, I almost got you, too.

What are you

doing man?

Lawson?

Jim, here's your census, man. Concentrate on his cologne.

I'm right down in the sewer.

All right, I'm going to call for backup.

My cell won't work down in the sewer.

Where are you going?

Come on. He needs one of us with him. I mean, in the state he's in, who knows

what he's going to do to Freeman if you get the hold of him.

You can go. I'm calling for a backup.

Yeah.

Captain Banks.

You got to separate out all the smells on here, all right, and try to pick up

his trail.

This is for you to check how he breathed. I know, I know, I know, but

this, man.

It's done.

Don't worry about that.

You're done.

It's my last one.

It's methane.

One spark for one gunshot, the whole place is gonna explode.

Oh, really?

Then it's probably a good idea for you to get the hell out of here. I don't

think so.

Give me the gun.

I know.

There's one good one in here.

Let's have a little fun.

Oh, God, come on. We don't need this. Let's get out of here.

Oh, come on, man. Give me the gun!

Third time's the charm.

Guess not.

You've got to do something. You can't let him go.

I don't want to die.

I don't want to die.

You can't let him die.

Please.

Isn't it just amazing how someone can snap over a little traffic incident like

that?

Are you talking about me or him?

I'm talking about Freeman.

The guy had lost everything, and he wanted to die.

That is, of course, until he was actually faced with that. For a moment

was willing to let him.

Yeah, I know.

There's no excuse for me losing control the way I did.

That's my point exactly here.

In today's society, everybody is just stressed out, man. I mean, even the good

guys.

Until we start paying attention to that, more people are going to wind up hurt

or dead.

They won't believe me, Chief.

From now on, I'll be paying attention.
