brakes on all my cases and I've been

putting in a lot of overtime I'm on my

own time sir I've been clocking out

first I've been working on some special

projects and I recently read the mayor's

very moving speech on cleaning up the

city the fede defacing and so forth and

I've been trying to work up a program to

deal with that once again on my own time

Saturday worked and so forth

public relations has come through McCall

small spiral notebook no it was a small

spiral notebook what it is now is the

deficient procedure in Mal performance

one of his departmental infractions in

this book if he goes to buy a candy bar

something here Bernie are you working on

another brown-bag special to help get

yourself transferred to PR that's very

funny

public relations serves as a necessary

link between the practical business of

the street and the public perception of

police business that's a real hellhole

over there Bernie I hear they lost a guy

going to be partner to for a while so I

think we can dispense with the whole

home humor

elliptically therefore they have

think that he planted a gun on a guy

after he shot was his wife's maiden name

Maryland sangster yeah yeah that's her

know who his first partner was McCall

that's right the old brass cupcake yeah

what else did got he was a private dick

for six months and then he lost his

license no associates yeah one guy named

Bryant Carmichael works as a bartender

and a dive over in a 77th division known

as the Irish Rose Trancas got involved

in a fight in there not too long ago

broke the place up pretty good I know

this guy Carmichael he refused to file

charges

okay Smitty Thanks Oh send a

black-and-white over to the park

opposite the mayor's office for a little

bit of cleanup would you

how'd you do hunter cooking Bernie

being painted on by a street gang called

the stilettos that'll be a lot of fun

catching these punks Bernie dodging the

switchblades and frying spray cans out

of their hands it's not our job well let

the Blues roll on the bus and we find

out who's doing it oh yeah I lost my

head there for me to Bernie sorry let me

know a great restaurant best food in Los

Angeles a little place called the Irish

Rose okay under thanks hey listen what's

a partner for if he can't buy lunch

every once in a while

[Music]

boy this place is really out of the way

in the hunter yeah I know that's why I

like it treat you like a king in this

place Bernie this isn't a 77th division

is it toughest damn division in Los

Angeles I love this division more

killings and shootings down here than

end up dumping a couple of hard balls

during lunch

I couldn't just go to the universal

Grill good.we you're gonna love this

place Bernie best kitchen in Los Angeles

[Music]

Hey look here Bernie maybe we can ask

some questions while we're having

something to eat

there's no kitchen here hunter this is a

bar

I'll see the sandwich vending machine

here Bernie the best egg salad

sandwiches in Lausanne just come out of

that machine under why are you doing it

talk about coincidences Bernie

I think that's my stick partner DeeDee

McCall over there at the end of the bar

we should be in the valley working on my

case instead you bring you to this slum

capital of Los Angeles to check on your

crazy partner

I fellas looking for a little fun McCall

I have no light your friend behind the

bar just one for the fun I'm sorry but I

think we may have burned it I wasn't

getting anywhere anyway might work out

better what is going on sorry it's none

of your business it's personal Maryland

Trancas is in your apartment Gus was

your first partner and he used to hang

out at this bar with a guy named

Carmichael now my guess is Carmichael is

a big fat ugly guy behind the bar with a

sweat stain t-shirt a bar rag hanging

over his shoulder should know better

than to trying to slide one past year

hunter what are you two talking about

wait a minute what is going on here this

whole bar is gonna turn upside down in

about three or four minutes less I want

to talk to you outside maybe I don't

machine Hunter oh that must be the bar

on Third Street you're going to be up on

the carpet for this one Hunter where is

my logbook all I know is my partner and

I stopped for lunch you voluntarily

entered the bar walked into the middle

of a 245 and as a good police officer

attempted to apprehend the assailants

that's what goes in my report Bernie

along with the fact that you attempted

to flee the scene of a crime in progress

what and failed to respond to the help

of a fellow officer in distress nonsense

hunter how did I get this if I wasn't

involved you got it trying to duck out

the door Bernie I've taken all of this

from you to that I'm gonna take I'm

going back to the precinct house right

now let's go mister let's go move where

let's go

I'd have a talk with this guy at the bar

before Bernie comes back

Gus trainees I'm looking for we're all

looking for something lady I don't know

come on you guys supposed to be cops and

you're supposed to be a bartender but

now you're gonna be a convict for

assaulting a police officer

I didn't know honest Hey look Gus told

me that there might some friends at his

coming around the kind of friends you

don't want to know about well it

couldn't be else could it

Gus is just dying to hear from us right

you made a phone call where's the number

over by the telephone

it's no good though

it was disconnected when I call hey

listen Gus gave me that number a long

time ago and I I haven't heard from in a

long time I'm playing aces up with you

really I am you give me a call if Gus

checks in sure sure no sweat no sweat

look I had to do what I did

Gus is a buddy of mine and you'd do the

same thing if you had a friend that was

in trouble wouldn't you

how do we get off my back what I'm doing

is personal I don't need you butting in

well looks like you could have used

someone a few minutes ago I was doing

fine until you showed up you're not

doing fine and marriland Trancas is in

your apartment she's not doing so hot

either

I think you need help now I want to help

you out of whatever mess you're in so I

can get rid of Bernie but I need space

on this one I know you're looking for

Guster Angus

what kind of trouble is this guy in that

you want to keep so secret he told

Marilyn he took a contract the contract

at least that was a word he used but it

couldn't mean anything but after he told

her I practically feed her to death to

keep it from repeating it to anybody I

gotta go

now hold on go home and wait for me I'll

dump Bernie I'll come back and pick you

up I didn't ask for your help well you

just don't know how to ask for help

look who's talking Bernie Bernie okay

shadows they jumped me all at once

shadows Bernie it's broad daylight

hunter I'm wounded cuff me where I was

most vulnerable on my Blind Side where

have you been all this time leave me out

here with two dangerous prisoners yeah

you're right Bernie I guess I should

have been out here after all they were

only handcuffed right

[Music]

the number was a phone that he had in a

room but the phone company disconnected

it because I'm not behaving a bills two

days ago

[Music]

really not move for this right now well

you're the one that thought Trancas

might recognize your car

where to now I'm dry on this I thought

for sure I'd get a line on guests out of

the Irish Rose you'll think of something

you spent a lot of time with this guy

after all your partners for years were

the partners

we were real teen hunter I was fresh out

of the Academy

Gus taught me so much showed me the

streets

we made a pact we were gonna do it

together together we were gonna make a

difference looking back I guess we never

really did think alike after the

shooting Review Board washed vests out

I never wanted another partner I never

wanted to get that close to anybody I

worked with again he's capable isn't it

I mean he could take a hit contract

and I gotta get to him I gotta help him

hunter there's got to be something

you're not clicking on you know I mean

what about the cases you had together

little things you'd pick up

Oh damnit hunter the mag is ready hit

the bullet from Chicago you got inside

Charlie whenever a button man comes to

town or someone goes to ground procedure

is a search of all flop houses and

apartments right right well the thing

that impressed both me and Gus was that

this guy who hit Eastside Charlie came

to town and rented an office I mean you

[Music]

[Music]

Trancas always was a hell of a driver I

think he got away

[Music]

there's nothing here to tell us anything

just cleaned out now he's gonna crawl

into a hole and pull it in after him we

found him once we'll find him again

there's more than one way back into this

case if we can't find the shooter we'll

work backwards find out who he's after

and then head him off Gus wouldn't have

that phone put in if you didn't want to

call somebody I can't let him go down

like this hunter he was my partner album

DD partners don't oh they just do

yeah got that info for you

hold on yeah what do you got matter only

one number was dialed from that phone

I know who this number belongs to who

let's go find him if Gus called that

number for help we won't have to go find

anywhere now find me

[Music]

wake up hunter you got an appointment

it's about time I fell asleep wait for

you guys

this way in factory-sealed

does that look like it's factory sealed

it look like it was wrapped by my

two-year-old I get the machine working

the way it's supposed to good morning

Julie hey Rick I didn't know you could

get up this early well I usually do

sleep till 6:00 a.m. oh you could add

rest

oh they couldn't give me a chance

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom oh

that's a hot one

I got an order for more units to that

then I can push out come on keep it it

won't be on tape for almost a year well

I don't have a recorder hey Benny

go get him one of those new fee CR zone

in the back coupon with the remote huh I

hate to think these tapes are pirated

I'd hate to think you're gonna get you

bit caught in the door jamb you know why

you're here well it's not to watch your

videos any popular I was asked to talk

to you some people are getting a little

nervous that you're gonna mess up their

plans oh that must be doing my job then

huh oh come on Rick smarten up the only

reason why you didn't wake up in a trunk

of your car is because Terry Franks

knows it we're cousins well since when

do we involve with the Franks family

well they just don't know how to figure

you they don't know how to approach you

so they figured you and I be in first

cousins and maybe I could get you to

listen to reason

what are you gonna do bullying me Jilly

hey your dad told me a long time ago but

you never threaten to bully a guy

English you're gonna back it up

so Mass can use a friend will you leave

this alone and back off now that's a

factory sealed

David the cops got to be the target

patrolman Dave Endicott is gonna testify

against Terry Franks it would all make

sense it would be natural to think that

an ex-cop could pull a hit on another

cop an Augusta knows procedure for

protecting and moving a witness to the

court it may be knows and he knows his

personal habits hi we need to subtract

he came right away oh he's not in

he'll probably be checking in with me

later today well this can't wait till

later today well he's gonna be at the

courthouse sometime this afternoon

courthouse does this have anything to do

with officer Endicott captain Canaan

Bernie to Williger in charge of security

on that case when it is scheduled to be

there they're probably the court has

already come on let's go look for Gus

hasn't made his move yet

[Music]

[Music]

so they didn't get to him he's got to

come back and testify tomorrow Cain's

got about 10 officers working security

well

look thanks hunter I know you've dodged

a lot of departmental flak

well I've been on this rubber graffiti

thing it's been tough but I'm hanging in

there for you

there he goes

[Music]

you never answer I know this sounds

strange but he's nearby I can feel it

you still think this guy's pretty

special don't you

if anybody can pull off this contract

its Gus Petey don't be responsible for

this guy

when Gus dropped that cold piece in the

alley that night he did it to himself

just wish I didn't have to be the one to

push the button

you're the only one occurred

it was a hard contract

Roger he's on his way up

dammit hunter get out of here I tried to

have dispatch reaching captain I got the

call obviously to Williger and I can

take care of any kind of assassination

attempt assassination - captain I know

Trancas I can think like it get off the

premises - both of you you're not on

this detail sir I can take care of

sergeant hunter and sergeant McCall if I

have to March them all the way back to

three Saints have a second

you've really done it this time

hunter I'm kind of surprised to see you

here Bernie you know there's not one

piece of graffiti on this entire hotel

I'll ignore that flip remark where are

they going

so the Endicott is being held on is

blocked off by ten security cops I think

they'll be safe for the night we don't

need you here you can go home let me buy

you dinner Dede I'll stay with you to

make sure you stay on the restaurant

don't get in the way

this number he's in the hotel hunter

there are no 13 floors in a hotel Gus

was a master with electronics it was his

hobby he rewired all the elevator bells

what are you two sniveling about you add

the 13th floor throws a floor count off

by one floor Bernie was poorly holding

Endicott on you got about as much chance

of being voted Rose Queen as you do

getting that out of me hunter 15 ok this

elevators gonna stop 116 all the

security police are gathered on the

floor below they'll walk right into an

ambush

under are you saying that is there gonna

be a shootout hunter stop the elevator I

got a better chance of beating the same

to the top if I run the stairs

stay with McCall Bernie and get your

peace out

[Music]

hold on Endicott we'll be there in a

second

[Music]

Street artisans can breathe a sigh of

relief knowing you're not going to be

out there right after we talked to my

cousin Jilly about pirated tapes remind

me to call my broker and let's order

spray paint stock that's very funny

hunter I think the captain's report said

it all I was the one that stood up at

that gun fight Cain has put me up for

two I repeat two commendations burning

you shot captain Cain in the back it was

not been proved in any way yeah it's not

what the official report says so you're

a real hero now huh burning on the way

to public relations be careful don't

show open any martini halls I'm gonna be

so glad to get out of this crazy shoot

him up division even though I am one of

the top shooters I have spent enough

time in the war zone that'll be good for

Bernie yeah you know it's just thinking

about Gus was the time I looked up to

him hey listen hunter want to make a

hard contract with you anytime it'll let

me slide I'll keep you straight if you

do the same for me you won't slide

you're too hardheaded can happen slowly

sometimes maybe don't even know what's

happening or can happen fast like with

Bernie suck fish to hero in one shining

moment all he had to do was trigger our

count excuse me uh I have an

announcement to make I know that you're

all concerned that a fine officer like

Bernie to Willig is being reassigned I

don't blame you

we have first-hand proof that this

officer reacts with courage under fire

now when this was brought to the

attention to the deputy chief he did the

right thing I have a memo sent from his

office this morning due to the gallantry

and heroism under fire it is the view of

this department that it would be pure

folly to remove this courageous officer

from his duties under fire with us in

mind I have reconsidered his assignment

of public relations

and put him in the highest crime area of

the city I know all of us on the job can

feel better knowing that sergeant of

Williger is out there standing shoulder

to shoulder with the other fine officers

of this division Bernie

congratulations well it seems there is a

sudden justice in life away after all
