My dad just taught me not to give up. You know...

Hey, look who's back.

Hey, how was the ski trip?

Outstanding.

Best snow I've seen in years, man.

But I'm back. I'm back.

What do we got?

Take a look.

Confirmed reports that an FBI fugitive is back in town.

Eddie Paradise, cop killer.

Ten Most Wanted. This guy's bad news.

They don't get much worse.

Well, Eddie Paradise doesn't stand a chance

with both of us on the case.

Well, we've got a problem.

What's the problem?

The mayor's nephew

wants to get into law enforcement.

And the mayor asked one of us to show him around.

Oh, great.

And I know who's gonna be showing the kid around.

Oh, you do, do you?

Yes, I do. Me. Well, you're wrong.

I'm turning the Eddie Paradise case

over to you.

Wow. I don't know what to say, Walker.

Well, don't say anything. Just go catch him.

Well, I-I was practically responsible...

I just... I just appreciate your confidence in me, Walker.

Trivette, you're my partner.

I have total confidence in you.

Well, this really... This really means a lot to me.

Well, you're my friend.

I cannot believe you just did that to him.

Better him than me.

Um, Trivette?

Yeah?

There's one other thing.

There's gonna be a TV crew

following you around.

"TV crew"?

Tell him.

You know that TV series, Behind the Badge.

You've seen it.

Where they have the camera follow the cops?

Yeah.

No, that's... That's tabloid TV. That's the worst, you guys.

Well, maybe, but the governor has given them permission

to follow you around.

Oh, the governor?

Good luck.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

What?

You... What?

You didn't want any part of that television show

in the first place, did you? You set me up.

Now I'm stuck having to babysit some hack TV journalist.

Come here, Alex. You're my witness.

That's a guilty look if I've ever seen one.

I plead the Fifth.

You corrupted her too.

Well, I gotta go.

No, Walker...

Walker, you gotta flip me on this.

Winner... Winner has... Gets to take the mayor's nephew,

and loser has to do the television show.

Why would I do that?

Because, if... Because if you don't,

I'm gonna deep six your stock portfolio.

It couldn't get any deeper.

Hey, you're my friend. You gotta flip me on this.

Friendship has nothing to do with it.

Yeah, but being fair does,

and you know what you did wasn't fair.

He's got you.

Got a quarter?

Yeah, yeah.

Call it. Heads.

Yes! Ho! Ho! Ho!

I beat him.

I beat him at something.

Oh, he's mad.

Hey, Walker, wait up.

Hey, don't be mad.

I'm not mad. Do I look mad?

I'm staying outta this.

Well, I'm not mad. Good.

Because you might like this TV thing.

I mean, you know, they got the fans going,

and then the agents,

and then the 8-by-10 glossy pictures.

Holy.

Hi, I'm Vanessa St. John. This is Nikki Warren.

We're from Behind the Badge.

Could you tell me where I can find

Texas Ranger Company B?

Yeah, I'm... Absolutely, yeah.

Trivette. Sergeant James Trivette.

Hi. Company B.

As a matter of fact, I'm gonna be helping you out

on this week's segment.

Great. Yeah.

Like to see the office?

Sure. Okay.

Yeah, come on.

Thanks.

What happened to the coin toss?

Come on. This is gonna be fun.

♪ In the eyes of a Ranger ♪

♪ The unsuspecting stranger ♪

♪ Had better know the truth ♪

♪ Of wrong from right ♪

♪ 'Cause the eyes Of the Ranger ♪

♪ Are upon you ♪

♪ Any wrong you do He's gonna see ♪

♪ When you're in Texas Look behind you ♪

♪ 'Cause that's where The Ranger's gonna be ♪

You need to double-check all of it.

Well, here we are.

Home of Company B, one of five Ranger units

in this great state of ours.

Each year, over 500 major crimes are investigated in this room.

Right here.

Well, you know, I've heard a lot about

the Texas Rangers over the years.

It's interesting to finally get an inside look.

Yeah, that's how I feel about your show, Vanessa.

I hope you don't mind me saying, but I'm a big fan of yours.

Thank you, Ranger Trivette.

Call me Jimmy. All right, Jimmy.

Behind the Badge, it's a terrific show.

I'm absolutely riveted to my television set every...

Wednesday.

Wednesday night.

Jimmy, uh, we can start taping

just as soon as Nikki finishes checking the equipment.

Okay, all right.

Walker, Alex, what are you doing here?

Well, we thought we'd come see the action.

Oh, you probably didn't meet my friends outside.

Alex Cahill.

Assistant District Attorney Alex Cahill.

Hi. Cordell Walker.

My partner, Cordell Walker.

Nice to meet you.

Well, you don't wanna keep the mayor's nephew waiting.

Oh, he doesn't mind.

Well, actually, you arrived just on time.

Uh, we're about to start.

Oh, good. Great.

Jimmy, why don't you just have a seat right here?

Okay.

Uh, exactly what is it that you want me to do here?

Well, uh, we could start

with the background information on Eddie Paradise,

and your investigation so far.

"Investigation." Okay.

The investigation on Eddie Paradise.

Oh, oh!

I've got it right here.

Here, here.

We're rolling.

Still rolling.

Whenever you're ready.

Okay. Um, aren't you supposed to say

"action" or something like that?

That's in the movies. This is a documentary.

Oh, okay, right.

So I'm just supposed to start talking?

Sometime before we run outta tape.

Hello.

My name is Sergeant James Trivette.

And... this is my conference table.

Usually, on the conference table there are a lot of folders

because they're filled with... important information

about dangerous felons

like Eddie Paradise.

Yeah.

According to our records, Mr. Paradise used to live here.

Then he moved away.

Now he's back.

This could've been me.

Cut.

Just relax, you can do it.

How'd I do?

Oh, I think you're doing good.

Magical.

Absolutely.

Jimmy, why don't we take it from the top?

An-And this time a little less formal.

Okay. Okay.

"Less formal." All right.

Take two.

Okay.

Now?

Hi.

Don't laugh.

Am I sitting too low?

Right now I'm working on a real difficult case.

Okay, so then I'm, um... Um.

I'm not scared.

That's why, for me,

physical conditioning is absolutely vital

to effective police work, Vanessa.

So what I do is I stop by the Ranger gym

and I break a good sweat.

I've always been like that. I remember one time

when I was in training camp for the Dallas Cowboys...

You played pro football?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

They used to call me Go-Long Trivette.

Well, that's interesting.

So your football experience uniquely qualifies you

to lead this investigation.

Well, actually, no, I just thought

that you might like some background information.

You know, the man behind the badge.

Too bad we're only a half-an-hour show.

Maybe we should move on

to material directly related

to your search for Eddie Paradise.

Okay.

How am I doing?

Okay.

I appreciate the opportunity

to work with you, Sergeant Walker.

My uncle says your accomplishments are legendary.

"Legendary," huh?

Legends are men like

Rangers Frank Hamer and Lone Wolf Gonzaullas, man.

Not me.

Whoa!

Is he moving.

This is Walker.

I need a priority 10-28 on a red Trans Am,

Texas plate 6O9-G7A.

How could you see all that?

Practice.

Walker, dispatch.

Red Trans Am, 6O9-G7A, is code 6AD

for bank robberies in Eastland, Archer and Tarrant counties.

Approach with extreme caution.

Copy.

"Code 6AD"? What does that mean?

Felony want, armed and dangerous.

Tighten up your seat belt.

I'll be right there with your steak!

Are you, uh, sure your information's accurate?

Oh, yeah, yeah, according to the FBI file.

Been multiple sightings

of Eddie Paradise here this week.

We can't just sit here and do nothing.

Hey, I know you're frustrated. I understand your frustration.

But believe me,

good police work does not always entail

heart-pounding excitement.

I can see the promo now:

Join Vanessa St. John next week

for an exclusive Behind the Badge look

at Cowboy Jack's Burgerville.

Smells like an Emmy to me.

Ladies, this is just a starting point.

Criminals are creatures of habit.

What I'm doing is I'm waiting for this Eddie Paradise guy

to revert back to some kind of familiar behavior,

and he will, sooner or later.

Mm-hm.

Look. Look at the file.

Eddie Paradise has a real thing for Cowboy Jack's hamburgers.

He always orders a double burger with extra salad dressing,

two sides of fries.

Hey,

guy probably has a cholesterol problem too, huh?

Howdy.

Hi.

You folks got a hankering for some grub?

Absolutely. What do you got?

You're not gonna eat here, are you?

Well, Prairie Dog's okay,

or there's the Chuck Wagon Special.

Now, that's a Stampede Burger with Jack's Cowpoke Chili.

What's that thing you're pointing at me back there?

It's a television camera.

Ohh! I thought I recognized you. You're Vanessa St. John.

Oh, I-I just love your show.

Well, that and Ricki Lake.

You after another dirtbag, Miss St. John?

Absolutely, and, uh, we were told he's been here.

No. Wouldn't you just know it?

It's my first time on TV and I can't even place the fella.

But... But Vern... I bet Vern knows him.

See, Vern knows everybody.

Vern here today?

Oh, yeah, yeah, he's in the back.

Come on.

Vern, this is Vanessa St. John. You know, Behind the Badge?

She's looking for another one of them dirtbags,

and I told her you know them all.

Yeah.

Sure, I seen the guy. More than once too.

Vern, is there something else you can tell me about him?

Something you may have seen

or something you may have noticed?

No, I can't help you there, Ranger.

We get a lot of customers in here.

They all kinda runs together. You know what I mean?

Yeah.

But a couple of months back,

Elvis drove in.

Elvis Presley?

Imagine that.

He ordered a Prairie Dog, he did.

Well, I threw in the onion rings,

no charge, you know.

What, with him being the King and all. He said,

"Thank you very much."

Wish I'd a had a camera.

Thank you.

Your partner certainly has his share

of commendations for police work.

He's been at it a while, yeah.

I don't see any plaques with your name on it.

Mine are at home.

There's got to be a backup segment we can use.

Nothing's happening here. Nothing.

All right. I'll stay on it.

Vanessa, I'm sorry this isn't turning out like you hoped.

I'll understand if you wanna drop the story.

I appreciate it, but my producer won't let me.

Sometimes I wish I'd never come to Dallas.

Hey, ooh, come on, now.

Dallas is a good town. Don't blame it on Dallas.

I wouldn't know. All I've ever seen is the airport.

And Cowboy Jack's.

Don't remind me.

You...

I should show you around some evening.

You know, that's very nice of you, Jimmy,

but I never date the men I cover on the show.

Hey, who's... Who's talking about dating?

I'm talking about a little Texas hospitality.

How's it going?

Nothing on Paradise yet.

We had a heck of a day.

And it was so amazing what went down out there.

We had a high-speed chase, a shoot-out, the works.

What brought this on? Bank robbers.

And Walker captured an entire gang all by himself.

It was amazing. I mean, it's like...

It's like watching a, like,

a Clint Eastwood movie or something.

Wait till my uncle hears about this.

Nikki, come on.

Ranger Walker, sounds like you've had quite a day.

A little more than usual.

Would you mind telling us exactly what happened?

And please, don't leave anything out.

I don't know where the napkins are.

Help me out, all right?

You give her a good word and she'll go out with me.

You have an impressive record with the Texas Rangers, Walker.

I've been at it a long time.

Tell me about your experiences with the Rangers.

Probably hard to know where to start.

What about the time that you nailed Sol Montalbo

when everybody else gave up?

Well, actually, that was Trivette, remember?

Oh, that's right.

Yeah, he, uh, he worked nights and weekends for almost a year

to crack this case.

Yeah.

Well, there was the time that you tracked

the McCullan brothers.

Ooh. Never forget those guys.

No, actually, that was Trivette too, remember?

You know, Jimmy, I've forgotten

how much you've done since you've joined the Rangers.

Well, I'm not into the glory thing.

There he goes again. Mr. Humility.

I don't know what appeals to me most about Jimmy.

His total lack of ego or, uh, his generosity.

Alex, you're embarrassing me.

How many weekends do you spend coaching Little League?

Oh, most of them.

Well, you know, it's no wonder

you have such a selfless attitude

with a partner like Walker.

You know, my research tells me that not only do you work

to keep inner-city kids off drugs and out of gangs,

but you give a lot of your time

to the Cherokee reservation in Oklahoma.

- Yeah, a little bit. - Yoo-hoo.

By golly, I'm sorry I'm late.

C.D., what happened?

Oh, I got in a little fracas down there at the bar.

What happened?

Couple of punks with a gun.

They pulled a gun on you?

Yeah, uh, I'll bet you're Vanessa.

Vanessa, you're more beautiful than Jimmy said.

I'm C.D. Parker.

Hi.

And I can't believe that you don't think that two armed men

are something to worry about.

Oh, no, ma'am, hardly worth my attention.

Well, I would certainly like to know

what is worth your attention.

Well, in the course of a law-enforcement career,

you run across a lot of strange, interesting things.

I-I-I guess one of the funniest things that ever happened to me

happened with old, uh, Big Foot Johnson.

Jimmy, did I ever tell you this story?

Yes, you have.

Well, you're gonna hear it again.

Big Foot Johnson had a foot about this long.

Big Foot was stationed out in Erath County...

I just don't know why you're so pushed outta shape about this.

Yeah.

I didn't do one damn thing, Jimmy.

What? You were funny.

You were charming all night.

Vanessa couldn't get enough of you.

All I did was just tell

a couple of old war stories, that's all.

C.D., between you and Walker,

I could've got up on the dinner table

and set myself on fire,

and Vanessa wouldn't have noticed me. Jimmy.

All right. I'm crazy about the girl.

I'm starting to look like a jerk.

Well, Jimmy, it's awfully hard not to be charming.

It really is.

Three o'clock. God, we've been here for seven hours.

I have detectives coming to relieve us at 6.

Jimmy, I don't think I can take three more hours of this.

It's hard, I know.

Look at Nikki over there sleeping.

I didn't realize she was so tired.

I'm sorry.

The word is bored, not tired.

Look, I've gotta get something going on this story.

My career is on the line here.

Career? I thought this was just one TV segment.

Oh, I wish that were true.

See, I lobbied to get this assignment, and believe me,

there are people just waiting for me to fail.

Why would anybody be waiting for you to fail?

Because television is a very competitive business

and there are plenty of reporters

who would've killed to get this story

and here I am with nothing to show

but footage of hookers and johns entering a fleabag apartment.

If this stakeout's a bust,

that doesn't mean the case is over.

Jimmy, this case never got started.

Eddie Paradise is on the FBI Most Wanted List for a reason.

He's hard to catch.

If he was easy to catch, he wouldn't be most wanted.

Does that make sense?

Oh, I guess so.

All right.

Hey, why don't we call Walker and see if he has any leads?

No, he would've called already.

Besides, we have plenty of our own leads,

like at the biker bar that Eddie Paradise hangs out at.

Okay?

Well, let's call him anyway.

No, I don't think so.

Well, just in case.

Vanessa, I'm in charge of this case. Not Walker, okay?

When I say I'm doing everything to catch Eddie Paradise,

it means I'm doing everything humanly possible.

Look, I'm sure you're doing the best you can, I really am.

It's just that I'm so desperate

an-and Walker has so much experience and...

I know, he's got a lot of experience.

He's a terrific cop.

He taught me everything I know.

Believe me, he's just a man.

A very busy man.

Everybody gets lucky once in a while.

He got lucky yesterday.

I'm betting the farm that the day

that Cordell Walker's having today

is no more exciting than ours.

Wow!

Ahh!

Oh!

Sergeant Walker, look at this.

There must be a jillion dollars in here.

Drug money, Matt.

It was amazing, the way you just jumped onto that truck.

I mean, I would've fallen off that truck...

Ranger Trivette, Sergeant Walker just busted a smuggling ring.

He fought the whole gang all by himself and he won.

And then he recovered...

A bazillion dollars, I heard.

Well, actually a million, but Matt found it.

How nice. But that's not all.

On the way back, Sergeant Walker

found this gasoline truck driving down the road,

but the driver was slumped down, there,

so he made a transfer onto the truck at 60 miles an hour

and stopped it from crashing into a crowded intersection.

What a guy.

Yeah, he is.

He's gotta be the best police officer that ever lived.

Thank you.

Okay.

My biggest fan.

Yeah. You're killing me, you know that.

What am I doing?

I'm thinking, don't you have some vacation time?

You need a rest after single-handedly cleaning up

the entire Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex?

Well, it has been a rough day.

Walker, if Vanessa hears about this,

she's not gonna talk to me. Forget about dinner.

What am I supposed to do? Stop arresting people?

No, just... keep it down.

An-And put a muzzle on that kid.

I'll see what I can do.

Pull your vehicle to the side of the road.

Pull your vehicle to the side of the road.

Uh...

You know, Vanessa, Nikki, I can't let you go in there.

This is where the story is, isn't it?

I-I don't know that for sure.

But Eddie Paradise is a biker, right?

Right. This is one of his hangouts, right?

Ye... This is not a place for women.

The time to worry about that

was before I asked for this assignment.

Look, hey, you don't know how to ha... Handle those guys.

Yeah. Trivette.

Jimmy, did you hear the great news about Walker?

What? He found Jimmy Hoffa?

He made a major bust this morning.

Walker made another bust?

That's great.

You don't sound very happy.

I'm happy. I'm ha... Alex, I'm happy.

I just gotta go, all right? I'll talk...

Nikki, you didn't hear that.

Twenty bucks keeps my mouth shut.

Nikki, come on.

Hey, how are you?

I know.

Excuse me. Hi, Vanessa.

Hi.

Well, well.

If it ain't a Texas Ranger.

Take a hike.

It's okay, Harold. Ranger Trivette

is a friend of mine.

Well, lady, you're hanging with the wrong crowd.

Uh, he's cool.

I'm looking for a guy who comes in here a lot.

His name's Eddie Paradise.

What business would that be of yours?

This badge makes it my business.

Well, suppose I take that badge

and I shove it down your throat?

Harold, I think that's a good idea.

Ranger Trivette only wants information.

Seems like I struck a chord.

Sorry.

Me and the boys just get a little jumpy

when the pigs start throwing names around.

Harold, I think you and I should go down to headquarters

and have a conversation.

That's a good idea, Harold.

It'd be a better backdrop for your interview on the show.

Okay, I'll go.

But because Miss St. John asked me to.

Okay. Come on, let's go.

Does my hair look okay?

It's very becoming.

Thank you.

You are so funny.

Hey, when's this gonna be on? I wanna tell my mama.

Sometime next month.

That's good.

You know, my mama said I ought to be on TV,

except for my mug shot on the news.

You are so funny.

What's the matter, Jimmy?

I'm trying to imagine what it would feel like

to take an 80-foot plunge

off of a windowsill.

C.D. said you were pretty upset

about how it's going with Vanessa.

Man, hit a brick wall.

This is the most beautiful, most intelligent woman

I've met in a long time.

You really like her.

A lot.

And I'm getting nowhere.

You're a woman, right?

The last time I checked.

Now what am I doing wrong here?

I don't know. I don't know Vanessa that well.

I'm sinking fast. Alex, I'll try anything.

Well, all I can tell you

is what I would look for in a man.

And that would be...?

Confidence, sensitivity,

strength of character.

I'm glad you changed your mind about having dinner.

Oh, Alex Cahill convinced me I really need to understand

why Texas Rangers are different

than other law enforcement agencies.

I love that woman.

I guess you could say we're cut from a different cloth.

Why's that?

There's only 99 of us.

It's an honor being chosen.

Hmm. What about family?

What about family?

All right, how about this?

Right now, my badge is my mistress.

Jimbo, I thought that was you.

Ah!

Cheryl. Hi, Cheryl. Cheryl Jackson.

Cheryl Jackson, I want you to meet

Vanessa St. John.

Cheryl and I met when I was playing

on the Dallas Cowboys. Hi.

We sure did.

I was cheerleader and Jimbo was wide receiver.

And he sure was happy to receive.

Cheryl, what are you doing here?

Oh, a swimsuit thing for some magazine.

Uh, or is it lingerie?

I can't remember. Something half-naked.

Well, I gotta go.

Okay.

Why don't you call me sometime?

Okay.

Bye.

What?

So your badge is your mistress?

You got it all wrong. She's a cheerleader.

You can't... Just a minute.

You can't date cheerleaders

when you're a player. Yeah. Jim. When?

All right, I'm right on it. What?

Got an informant who's got a lead on Eddie Paradise.

Come on.

This is Vanessa St. John. We're deep in the heart

of the sprawling Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex

preparing to close in on FBI Most Wanted Fugitive,

Eddie Paradise.

Leading the operation is Texas Ranger James Trivette.

Come on.

What's going on?

Well, Vanessa, this is where

the taxpayers get their money's worth.

We're going in fast and we're taking down

Eddie Paradise once and for all.

The guy's not killing any more cops.

This is team leader, first position.

So, what's next?

Well, like I said, suspect is believed

to be on the premises.

Due to his past violent criminal history,

he's regarded as extremely dangerous.

Are you nervous?

It's all in a day's work.

Sorry.

No, I'm fine.

We're well prepared for every situation.

Every possible safety contingency is in place.

Let's close the net.

Let's move it.

Go, go, go.

Get him out of there.

??? police.

Hold it right there.

- Don't move. - Go, go.

Take the other hand.

Guys, you're hurting me.

Yeah, tell it to the judge.

You're under arrest, Eddie Paradise.

Hey, you got the wrong guy.

Get him up.

That's what they all say...

My name is not Eddie Paradise. It's Eddie Stubenhouse.

My ID's in my wallet. Check it out.

Okay, so why did you run when you saw the police?

I thought they were on to me. From all these parking meters

I've been stealing and turning into lamps.

What'd you think?

You mean to say we went through all of this for nothing?

No, look, one of my informants got the name wrong, all right?

One of my guys is gonna be able

to turn the corner for us any minute.

Yeah, right.

You know, I... Look, just head back and stay on the radios.

I know you want this as bad as I do.

Good idea. Yeah.

All right, go.

All right. Yes, sir.

All right, clear it out.

Let's go, boys.

Move it out.

They did a fine job.

Look, Vanessa, I owe you an apology

and I don't know where to start.

It's not your fault.

No, I'm wrecking your show.

No. I blew it.

I should've been able

to make the story work no matter what.

And I was this close.

No, you're a journalist and not a magician.

Being too hard on yourself.

You wouldn't understand.

Hey, try me.

All my life, I've had trouble being taken seriously.

I've got a master's degree in journalism,

but nobody in the news business would give me a chance.

That's why I'm doing tabloid TV

like Behind the Badge instead of something...

Meaningful.

I think people know how good you are.

So, um, you wanted to take me to dinner

because I'm the next Lesley Stahl, right?

Well...

I made a fool out of myself, didn't I?

No.

We both did.

I came up empty-handed on my last two stories also.

Three strikes and I'm selling cubic zirconia jewelry

on the shopping channel.

Yeah. Trivette.

Trivette, we're in pursuit of Eddie Paradise.

Where are you?

An industrial park in Euless.

We're heading that way.

We're up and running.

What is it?

Walker's onto Eddie Paradise. Come on, Nikki.

Fantastic. Nikki.

Nikki, come on, let's go now. Get in.

Trivette, what's your 10-20?

We're at Pogue Road heading south.

We're almost on top of you.

Paradise is on a motorcycle.

What's your plan?

Let's do the squeeze play.

Dang it.

I thought you were gonna jump it.

It crossed my mind.

Hey, Walker, you guys all right?

Yeah, we're fine. He's all yours, Trivette.

There he is. That's him.

I think I'm gonna take a job in the Purchasing Department.

Hey, buddy, I need a favor.

Oh.

Sit down. Don't move.

I think that woman's being kidnapped.

Stay put.

Slow down, you jerk!

Okay, I got it. It's okay.

Hold it steady.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Come around. Come around on my good side.

Oh, God.

Nikki, no, don't drop that camera!

In recognition of his dedication and courage

in the successful apprehension of Eddie Paradise,

it is my honor to bestow on Ranger James Trivette

the Frank A. Hamer Award.

Yes.

Can you imagine, Cordell? Our own little Jimmy.

Yessiree. The Frank Hamer Award.

Yeah, he earned it, C.D.

I'm deeply honored to, uh,

receive the Frank A. Hamer Award.

But I couldn't have apprehended Eddie Paradise, of course,

without the help of my partner, Sergeant Cordell Walker.

And I'd like to say a special thank you

to a woman who was there when I needed her,

Uh, Vanessa St. John from Behind the Badge.

Thank you.

He forgot us, Alex.

He's a love-struck puppy.

Thanks, folks.

Well, let's go to C.D.'s.

Okay.

Jimmy, this is a big break for me.

How can I ever thank you?

Wanna grab some dinner?

I'd love to, but I can't.

My producers loved the segment so much,

they're giving me a breaking story in Kansas City.

Nikki and I leave for DFW in an hour.

Well, can't it wait till tomorrow?

I mean, aren't you entitled to a night off?

Not this time.

Well, that's not fair.

I mean, we hardly got to know each other.

We will, I promise.

You know, it's like they say.

The camera is my mistress.

It was fun working with you.

You too, Nikki.

It was a pleasure to meet you, Ranger Walker.

The pleasure's all mine.

Bye-bye.

Bye.

She's gone.

Vanessa finally knows who I am.

Now she's off on another assignment.

We hardly got to know each other.

Well, look at it this way,

if it hadn't been for you,

she wouldn't have got the new assignment.

Walker, I just wanna go out with her once.

Well, you know that old Ranger saying.

It's better to have tried and failed,

than to have never tried at all.
