They'll never get me!

That asshole's pushing drugs on my island! I'll kill him!

No, you can't! We have to capture him for questioning about his organization!

You bastards! You call yourselves police?

Get after him, Daizaburo! Don't let him get away!

Hold it!

What the hell? You cops are going to pay for this!

Stop or I'll shoot!

Just try and shoot me!

What's wrong little cop? If your not going to shoot, throw down your gun!

Hurry it up!

Hey, don't!

What are you doing? He'll kill you! Get back here!

Let the child go! I'll be your hostage instead!

Look!

I'm unarmed.

You've got nothing to do with this! Get out of there!

Please! Let the child go.

Okay! Then come here. I have to frisk you first.

Hurry, run!

Help me!

Stop that, you Bastard!

I have to do a full body check!

You're all right, son?

She's gorgeous!

Hey, Daizaburo! You did it!

She did...

Oh! Perine! Perine Valley!

It's been a while, Sleepy.

Why are you here?

I've been transferred to the 34th. This is my first day.

Really? Daizaburo, this is Perine.

She's the famous lady detective from Queens.

Detective? You mean she's a cop?

This is Daizaburo Eddie Ban. He's my new partner!

Nice to meet you.

What's wrong, Daizaburo?

She's so gorgeous!

You're a third degree black belt in Karate, a second degree in Judo, and you know Aikido.

You won the NYPD shooting competition five years in a row.

And you were awarded special recognition by the Chief of Police seven times.

That's incredible!

I never expected one of the elite to be transferred to my precinct!

You won't make trouble for me, like someone I know!

Excuse me.

Here, let me introduce you!

This man will be your supervisor, Lieutenant Tough Meyer.

This is Detective Perine. She just started.

Nice to meet you.

You have quite a reputation.

I'll enjoy working with you.

What? Transferred to the 34th?

That's interesting. I'll leave it to you, then.

Spill it! I know your pushing drugs, you Bastard!

Where do you meet your contacts?

Spill it, or I'll break your neck!

Calm down, Sleepy!

You can't hide it forever.

It will go easier for you if you talk.

I'll tell you, for a fuck.

You Bastard! You can't say that to Perine!

You apologize! Do it or I'll break your neck!

Clam down, Daizaburo!

He'll never talk if this keeps up. Let me do it.

Why don't we take a stroll to your son's grade school?

We'll call your kid to come and see.

Then parade you around the school grounds in handcuffs.

No! My boy has nothing to do with this!

Then they'll see that your kid's dad is a drug pusher.

What would your kid think of you marching in chains?

Do you want to talk, now?

It's the second warehouse, by the Brooklyn Bridge.

At 2 o'clock.

See? That's how it's done.

You three, come with me.

Just as we planned, Perine and I will stay in the car.

We'll play the parts of a john and a whore.

You guys will stand watch... up there.

What do you say?

YES SIR!

It's damn cold! I can't stand it!

He'd better not do anything to Perine!

Don't be so jealous!

If he so much as touches her!

Are you cold? We can't turn on the heater.

They might notice us.

When it's cold like this, body heat is the best thing to warm you up!

What!?

Shut up! You'll blow our cover!

You know you want it!

Detective Perine Valley.

I can't take it anymore!

It's the danger signal!

Hey, hold it!

God damn it! I knew it!

Here they come! Look!

What was that sound?

Up there!

It's undercover cops!

Kill them!

This is why I wore my bullet proof vest!

Those assholes!

C'mon!

We're just wasting bullets on them!

Huh?

This is our chance to get away with the goods.

When we've got the drugs, they'll be chasing us!

Then we'll call in backup to surround them, and cordon off the streets.

We'll have the drugs and the arrests!

That's the way Tough Meyer works!

We have to save those two!

Are you disobeying a direct order?

I can kill you now and give them any excuse I want!

C'mon!

Cover me until I get to the car!

They're over here!

Perine!

Tough Meyer! That Bastard!

He's getting away!

All right!

I knew it would come to this, so I hooked these onto my pubic hair!

Sorry about this!

Lieutenant Tom Tough Meyer, the 34th precinct's greatest hero?

He received an award from the department? What the hell is this?

What's «great» about him? That coward!

I don't believe it!

Just watch me get even with that bastard, Tough Meyer.

Finally the Goloars Organization is finished!

This clears the way for my syndicate to take over the island!

Next week, the boat will be bringing the largest shipment of narcotics this island has seen!

This is our largest job, and it requires a suitable blood sacrifice!

That's right, a sacrifice! I think that woman will do fine!

I must have that woman for my human sacrifice!

And she must be offered up before the boat arrives!

Here!

What's this for?

A present!

What's this for?

Why would you give me a bouquet?

Idiot! This isn't for you!

You should give it to her!

Huh?

I figured you out! You've got a thing for Perine!

No! It's just that...

You're not doing anything about it, and it's getting to me!

But... She would just be wasted on me!

Don't be stupid! If you're in love, you have to go after her!

B... But...

Don't you understand? All women love to receive flowers!

Now take them to her!

What's this all about, Lieutenant Tough Meyer?

According to my investigations,

we captured the Goloars syndicate, but there's an even bigger organization behind them!

And you want to close off the investigation before we have proof?

What's the meaning of this?

We've eliminated nearly all of the organizations using the Hudson Drug Corridor.

There IS no one else!

Are you just jealous that I got all the credit for the arrests?

Don't waste your time on it!

You should get out and arrest some whores!

What're you hanging around here for, Kid?

I... Uh...

Oh, I see.

Give it up, kid. Flowers are too classy for you.

That god dammed BASTAR...

Daizaburo, is something wrong?

Oh! I... It's nothing!

Don Enrico?

Wasn't he the big Mafia boss in Queens?

Yes, he was the brains behind the biggest drug smuggling syndicate over there.

Now he wants to organize a new smuggling ring in Manhattan?

I don't have any proof, but...

But, I thought you wiped him out...

I put Enrico's group out of operation.

I was sure Enrico died!

And if he survived?

It means he's probably working on some enormous deal!

But why isn't Tough Meyer looking into it?

Hmm. There's something going on with that guy.

How'd it go with the flowers?

I... uhh... I just...

Sleepy! Don't hold back!

I haven't seen you in so long.

That's Tough Meyer's car. What's he doing here, now? All right...

What the heck is he doing in a place like this?

What in the world...

What? You really found Enrico's hideout?

After you mentioned it, I looked into the matter myself.

Then I discovered their contact.

So I thought we should look into it.

This is it!

Let's go!

Let's check the second floor.

Hold it! If Enrico's still alive, then...

PERINE!!

Huh?

Is that why you weren't into it?

You were thinking of another woman! Fuckin' Bastard!

Where'd Daizaburo go?

Welcome, Detective Perine Valley.

That stinks!

Piss and sugar!

Long time no see, Sleepy. Looking good.

I knew it was you, Nickel the Electrician!

You haven't changed. You still smell like piss and sugar.

That's just my way of saying «hi» to the guy I'm gonna kill.

That's great! I love coffee with lots of sugar!

You're investigating Don Enrico's organization.

How did you know?

One snake knows another.

I made something real cool, and I wanted to try it out on you.

In exchange, I'll tell you where your partner went.

And I'll tell you what's happening to your detective girlfriend right now.

What? What's that supposed to mean?

Be patient.

First we'll play a little game, and then I'll tell you what you want to know.

All you have to do is choose a can and have a drink.

But, I put plastic explosives in half of the cans.

If you open the wrong can, it'll turn you to ground beef.

And there's no way to tell which is which.

If you come out alive, I'll tell you where your partner and the lady cop are.

Well? Will you get some sweet coffee, or get turned into meatloaf?

It's a fifty-fifty chance!

Do you have the guts to take a chance?

It's been a while. Don't you recognize me?

Don Enrico! So you ARE alive!

Yes. If you call this living.

So you're in with him!

Sorry. He promised me the island if I went along.

Well done, Lieutenant Tough Meyer.

That was an excellent impersonation of a cop to get Perine here.

I wanted to return the favor you did for me in Queens. Detective Perine.

Let me go! You Bastards!

Dammit! I told you to let go!

Daizaburo!

Perine!

We'll take our time killing the kid, after the sacrifice.

Get her!

Stop it!!

Stop it! Stop!!

Stop it!

You Bastard!!

I'm gonna have some fun with her, first! Watch!

Perine!

Well? Don't you have the guts?

Well?

I'll play!

You asshole!

We won't kill you so quickly, I lost my organization and my body because of you!

Enjoy your pain! It's your fault that I can't have a woman anymore!

Asshole!

Nyah Nyah Got you!

Hey!

If you're gonna shoot, just try it!

Do you have to shoot a defenseless kid? Where's your courage?

Is that the only way you can get a little guy like me? With a machine gun?

Come and fight me like men! I won't let you touch Perine!

That's good! If you want us to, we'll beat you to death!

You little twerp!

Daizaburo!

You Que-Ball! That punch wouldn't hurt a fly!

Daizaburo!

And when this is finished, Enrico promised that I'd have a chance with you!

Stop it!

As long as I'm alive, you'll never lay a finger on Perine!

Go to hell!

I was a heavy weight boxer!

I think I'll do some training on you!

Stop it!

Sleepy! Hurry up and get here while I buy you some time!

If you don't, Perine!

Daizaburo!

Had enough, punk?

You're pretty tough. Where'd you get the strength in that tiny body?

Get on with it! Kill him!

Die!

Daizaburo! Perine! Where are you?

What'd you do with my partner? If he's hurt, you'll regret it!

You're late, Sleepy!

What's taking you so long? Kill them!

Daizaburo! Hang in there!

If he's dead, you won't live to regret it!

Go to hell!

Daizaburo!

Daizaburo!

Daizaburo!

Daizaburo!

DIE!

Daizaburo!

Daizaburo!

He has contusions on 90% of his body, he's bleeding internally,

and he's broken three ribs.

It's amazing that he survived the trip to the hospital.

We'll do the best we can,

but don't get your hopes up.

What do you mean by that?

The patient has only been keeping himself alive by force of will.

I'd only give him 24 hours at the most.

No! Daizaburo, you can't die! Hang on!

P... Perine...

Daizaburo! You love Perine that much?

Perine, I have a favor to ask you.

Marry Daizaburo! Become his wife!

I know it sounds crazy, but he may die!

I'd like to see his dream come true!

Please! Marry him!

He saved my life!

I'd like to see him realize his dream, too. But...

Is it Mike?

Your partner, Mike, died in the line of duty two years ago.

But he still lives in my heart.

I can't forget him, either.

He was so determined, and such a nice guy.

My exact opposite, but we made a good team.

He died saving someone else's life.

What do you think Mike would do in your position?

Daizaburo is on the brink of death.

If he dies, you'll have to carry the memories of two loved ones.

Even if you just pretend to marry him, it would help.

What do you think Mike would do?

But...

Daizaburo Eddie Ban,

do you take this woman to be your wife, in sickness and in health,

for better or worse as long as you both shall live?

Do you see, Daizaburo? Perine's beautiful in her wedding gown!

And do you, Perine Valley,

take Daizaburo to be your husband, in sickness and health,

as long as you both shall live?

I... I do!

Yeah!!

What are you doing?

The groom is dying!

We might still be able to save him if we give him something to live for!

Isn't saving lives your job, Doctor?!

You may kiss the groom.

That's great! Daizaburo!

Oh!! Look!

What?

It's a miracle!

His heartbeat's getting stronger! And his breathing!

He's over the worst of it, now! He should be fully conscious by morning!

Really?

All right! That's a load off my shoulders!

Calm down! You're in a hospital!

Yes, sir! Let's go, Perine.

There's just one more thing we have to do.

I'm flying to LA on an emergency case. Get a helicopter ready for me!

Yeah, and hurry up!

I'm Lieutenant Tough Meyer from the 34th. You have your orders?

Yes, sir! We're ready to go!

Do you know where we're going?

Yes, Sir!

By the way, mister?

So, where is this «Los Angeles» burg?

It... It's you!!

Is that the case of drugs that you stole from Enrico's hideout?

You're a bad loser, Lieutenant Tough Meyer.

We're not going to LA. We're changing course to the police interrogation room.

I never expected you to figure me out. And you're right about the drugs.

Want to see?

You're damn tough. But you're not immortal, Mad Bull!

And I'm going make sure of it.

See, I've done some heavy recovering.

Yeah, that's great.

You had us worried there, you asshole.

Perine?

I know we're newlyweds, but I think I want a divorce.

I have my own dreams.

I want to be married in a white chapel,

and I want to take my bride away in a white horse-drawn carriage.

I'll give this back to you, until we decide to do this for real.

So take care of it until then.

Daizaburo!

What're you trying to do? Be classy or something?

What the hell are you doing?

I'm sorry!!
