RADIO DISPATCHER: All units in the vicinity

of Sixth and Grand, respond to a 415 miscellaneous.

Officers needs assistance.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: That's real close.

Let's take it. DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: Right.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Dispatch, this is 1 William

13 responding to the 415.

RADIO DISPATCHER: Copy 1 William 13

be advised detective Lenny and Officer Davis are on the scene.

Roger that.

Wanna put the bubble on?

[SIRENS]

[CRASH]

You guys OK?

Yeah.

We're just doin' a little sun bathing.

How many guys inside?

One.

Oh, man.

One?

Yeah.

- One. - OK.

Well, I guess, uh, we'll take it, all right?

Heh, one.

I'll tell you what.

Since you guys got it, we'll just back you up from here, OK?

[GROANING]

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

OK, OK.

Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am, ma'am, just take it easy, ma'am.

Speak English.

He eat all my food.

I have no more to feed other customers.

Get him out!

I want him out!

[GROANING]

[CRASH]

[YELLING AND GROANING]

Excuse me, sir?

I paid $4.95 for all you can eat.

And little bitch has to throw me out?

I don't think so.

I got rights!

I'm not leaving till I'm finished!

Ah!

[CRASH]

[GROANING]

I don't think that man's done yet.

August, I think we can take him.

[GROANING]

You think so, huh?

Yeah.

Okey-dokey.

[GROANING]

Show him your badge.

You think that'll work?

Go ahead, show it to him.

[GROANING]

[CRASH]

You know something, August?

That badge things is overrated.

You know, my mom always told me there's nothing worse

than a big, hungry, angry man.

I say we let him finish.

I tried to tell you that earlier.

Yeah.

[THEME MUSIC]

Another beautiful day in the City of Angels.

Why do people call it the City of Angels anyway?

I mean, you really think this is a place God would

have wanted his people to live?

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: Look around, August.

We got sunshine.

We've got clean air, well, at least

a couple weeks out of the year.

And we got the most beautiful women in the world.

What more could you ask for?

Well, the sunshine I can handle.

The air is lousy.

And I'm a married man, so that beautiful woman

thing just gets me in trouble.

What else you got?

Well, partner, you get to work with me, one of the best

detectives on the force.

See, see, see, that's another problem I got, too.

Gentlemen, we're over here.

So-- what we got this morning.

Can you possibly think of a better way to start the day?

For some reason, my imagination

escapes me right now.

Well, we got deep puncture wounds

across the torso and abdomen.

Looks like she's been stabbed about 25, 30 times.

I'm guessing 10 hours.

I'll by that.

Fingernails are broken, knuckles scraped,

bruises on her upper arm.

Her money and wallet are present.

No sign of robbery.

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: She must have

put up one hell of a fight.

What do you make of the pillow?

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: I don't know.

Your guess is as good as mine.

This was found on the body.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: "Let's contend no more, love.

Strive nor weep.

All be as before, love, only sleep."

MAN: am he, the Lord, your God, you shall sink your salvation!

[YELLING]

[GUN SHOTS]

I'm goin' after him.

I'll head him off.

[YELLING]

[GROANING]

[GROANING]

[HEAVY BREATHING]

[GROANING]

Get up.

Are you stupid, or are you just plain crazy?

Judge not.

You will pay for your sins.

Oh, is that right, huh?

You wouldn't happen to have a permit for this, would you?

I don't talk to nobody, but my lawyer.

I don't think that'll be a problem.

Do you, August?

No, 'cause he's certainly going to need one.

I think it's time he meets Miranda.

You have the right to remain silent.

If you give that right, anything you say

can and will be used against you--

CAPTAIN JENSEN: That joker who calls himself

The Reaper has got a solid alibi for the time the murder was

committed, the mental institution he

escaped from this morning.

Sorry, guys.

All right, folks.

We've got a body, a note, and a very unique MO.

We put it on the cleats line.

We come up with an identical, we could

have a serial killer here.

No press, and I mean no press, will hear about this

until I authorize it.

Any leaks, you're going to have to deal with me.

Melitti.

The, uh, victim's name was Sarah Fisher.

The airline ticket in her pocket said

she arrived here yesterday at 10:30

PM from St. Paul, Minnesota.

It checks out.

We're trying to reach the next of kin.

CAPTAIN JENSEN: OK.

Velez.

OK.

Well, the weapon used was probably a kitchen knife.

And there was no evidence of sexual abuse or penetration.

We found a hair follicle under Fisher's right hand.

It was male Caucasian undetermined age brunette.

And we also found black fibers, which

are a polyester rayon blend probably belonging

to a jacket or two a pant.

CAPTAIN JENSEN: Well, looks like we've got enough to go on.

Brooks, McDonald, you're in charge.

Let's get to it, everyone.

Gotta love the way that guy delegates authority, uh?

Yeah, right.

All right, listen up, everybody.

I'd say the tour lines are a good place to start.

Richardson, you want to take that?

I'm all over it.

Hey, Richardson, if you find, uh, Bruce Springsteen's house,

let me know, all right?

I know where Madonna lives.

Get outta here.

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: August?

I'm a jazz man myself.

Melitti, why don't you get me some detectives back

into the neighborhood where the body was found.

Maybe we can turn up some looky-loos.

You got it.

All right.

Everybody else, you know what to do.

Let's go to work, people.

Listen. uh, Chase, I'm gonna need a ride home tonight, man.

My car is bein' serviced and Kendra's gotta pick

up his sister from the airport.

Oh, yeah?

Is she as cute as Kendra is?

What's up with that?

What you trying to say? - Huh?

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: What does that mean, man?

Are you tryin' to tell me you're attracted to my wife?

Yeah, but no, no, no, no, no, no.

I'm just pulling your chain, man.

Oh.

Hey, do you wanna go to Veggie Vegan for lunch?

They got fake pork, fake beef, fake chicken, all made

with roots and beets and stuff.

Now, now, whoa, whoa, time out.

Why don't we go get some real burgers, real burgers,

real burgers, real burgers?

They got veggie burgers there?

I don't know if they got veggie burgers at real burgers.

TOUR GUIDE: And now you can see the famous Grauman's Chinese

Theatre, where all the stars have

put their hand and foot print.

Take a look, folks, and be back van in 20 minutes.

Thank you.

MAN IN CAR: Hi, there.

Hi.

Is there somebody famous in there?

There will be in about 10 minutes.

You ever hear of Johnny Blaze?

Heck, yeah!

Who hasn't?

Is that who it is?

My boss is a friendly guy who'd

just love to say hi to a fan.

Hop in, you can meet him.

Oh, I don't know.

Come on.

Better than that crowded bus.

You'll have a limo all to yourself.

Maybe he'll even show you his mansion.

Really?

OK, great.

Ha!

(FANCY VOICE) Home, James.

You're already there, kid.

Say, do you like poetry?

Dangerous.

Richardson.

Female Caucasian.

Approximately 20 years old, multiple stab wounds

to the torso and abdomen.

Looks like our man.

Wallet's still on the body just like the rest.

Got a new item here, too.

Lipstick on the cheek.

Betty Joe Fable.

Tulsa, Oklahoma.

August.

"See the creatures stalking while we speak.

Hush and hide the talking cheek on cheek."

Who is this guy, The Riddler?

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: It's a verse from a poem.

Yeah?

I just don't know which one.

Kendra, Hey, what's happening?

August told me your sister's in town.

Yeah, she is.

They're in back right now.

Yeah?

God, you are a handsome man, aren't you?

Well, thank you.

You're not too bad yourself.

I just love it when you talk to me like that.

Kendra, what are you doing?

I'm just being friendly.

Um, a little too friendly, don't you think?

Oh, don't tell me you're afraid of a little seduction.

- A little seduction? - Yeah, seduction.

You know what? Jodi-- I think Jodi needs me.

I--

Bye, handsome.

Tell August I had to go, all right?

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: "Let's contend no more, love.

Strive nor weep.

All be as before, love, only sleep.

See the creatures stalking while we speak.

Hush and hide the talking, cheek on cheek."

OK.

The first murder, we had a pillow--

only sleep.

The second murder, we had a pillow.

And we had a lipstick kiss on the cheek--

cheek on cheek.

Cheek on cheek.

So somehow the verses are connected, but I--

I don't know what it means.

Junior.

You know, when I was in that cell,

I was doing all of it thinking about what

you said about my diet.

I'ma do it, man.

I'ma change.

I got to change.

Ugh.

That's great, Junior.

That's great. Yeah.

Yeah.

You know, do just like what we talked about.

You know, try and cut the fat out of the diet

and eat smaller meals throughout the day, more often.

And try not to eat after 6 o'clock.

And we'll have you down to 400 before you know it.

Thanks, man.

You know, no one ever cared as much as you.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: August, can I ask you a question?

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: Shoot.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: I got this problem.

So what else is new?

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Well, actually, I mean,

I don't have a problem.

It's a friend of mine that has a problem.

You see, he has a friend.

Well, it's really a business partner of his, who has a wife.

And this guy's wife came on to my friend.

And now, he doesn't know how to tell his partner, because he's

afraid of what might happen.

So what does he do?

Tell him.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Tell him?

Yeah, tell him.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Yeah?

Yeah.

OK.

Um, that's what I'll do.

I'll-- I'll tell him.

I mean, I'll tell him to tell him.

You know you get stranger every day.

RICHARDSON: You know what I like about stake-outs, Melitti?

It's the companionship, two men alone together

just each other to rely on.

What the hell are you talking about?

What'd you do that for?

You had a fly right in the middle of your forehead

like that. - A fly.

I'll give you a fly.

Oh, look.

What?

Ow.

Oh, yeah?

You got another one by your ear right there.

- Look a spider. - Oh, yeah.

Tarantula right over there. - Why, I--

Yeah?

Do you have any crumb?

Hi, there.

Hi.

You're from out of town, aren't you?

Yeah, I am. How'd you know that?

It's my job to know.

As an introductory offer to new folks in town,

my company is giving away a free limousine ride

to the contestant with the brightest smile.

Oh.

That's a winner if I ever saw one.

Thank you.

My name's Hank.

We'll have to take my car to a limo service.

I hope you don't mind.

I don't think I'm interested.

Come on, it'll be fun. That's OK.

Come on, it'll be fun.

I don't think so.

Do be so difficult.

I know!

[GROANING]

Stop it!

He hurts me!

Hey, hey, hey, look!

You're making a scene.

[SCREAMING]

RICHARDSON: Hey, police!

Police! - Ho!

Ho!

[SIRENS]

[GROANING]

[SIRENS]

This is 1 William 14 in pursuit

of rust colored Buick heading southbound

on Wilcox approaching Sunset.

Request backup.

[SCREAMING]

Get me out of here!

[SCREAMING]

- Back up? - Back up.

We don't need any back up!

On your left, watch your left!

Great, two hours of paperwork.

RICHARDSON: Come on, right here!

[SCREAMING]

Let me out of here!

[SCREAMING]

Stop the car!

Police!

Get out of the way!

[SCREAMING]

[SIRENS]

[GROANING]

Call for an RA.

Back me up from here.

You OK, ma'am? - Yeah.

- You OK? - Yeah.

Yeah, he's out. He's gone.

What do you mean he's out? He's already out of here.

He left!

All right, Richardson, what the hell happened?

Well, it's like this.

He got away.

Now I know how you guys feel.

Mmm.

Well, there's only partial prints on the vehicle.

And it wasn't enough to go on.

The lighter's still up at the lab.

But the good news is that this matches the murder weapon.

- Good work, Lucy. - Thanks.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Thanks, Lucy.

We had zilch on the mug shots.

6', 6' 1", brown hair, Caucasian, that's it.

Said she was too scared to get a good look at him.

But she says she's positive she got a nice little chunk out

of his face.

Thanks a lot, Melitti.

Keep it up.

Damn it.

I want results.

I don't want statistics. McDonald?

Captain, we're working on it, all right?

"Teach me only teach, love, as I ought.

I will speak thy speech, love.

Think thy thought."

August, I got it.

It's Robert Browning's "A Woman's Last Word."

Look, first verse, "let's content no more, love."

Third verse, "see the creature stalking."

Seventh verse, "teach me only teach, love."

That one.

All right, all right, so, so, this guy

is working with odd numbers.

Uh-huh.

All right, where's number five?

"Where the apple reddens never pry lest we lose our Edens--"

"Even I."

Yes, yes.

What does all this mean?

I have no idea.

You know what?

We need an expert opinion.

Apparently, he's bating you with prose.

The poem is about a woman expressing

her moral self-surrender.

To her, it's better to keep her man's love,

even though it means shutting her eyes to the truth

of her lover's imperfections.

So in some strange way, he's looking

for acceptance from a woman.

It's possible.

Kind of defeats the purpose of dating, doesn't it?

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: You know,

I just wish we could figure out a method to his madness.

Well, just be aware he's probably

planned out every step of this.

Expect the unexpected.

Um, I have an 11 o'clock, guys.

Uh, can I have a word with you, detective, alone?

Um, yeah.

I'll-- I'll just be waiting outside.

Thanks a lot, Miss. Levy.

Sure, no problem.

But

How you been, Stell?

Is that a trick question?

I can't believe you came down here.

Oh, you know, isn't it amazing?

All that time, and we haven't run into each other once.

That's no coincidence.

You dumped me, Chase.

No, I--

Stella.

Hey, I didn't dump you.

I mean, um, I just been--

I just got real busy.

And--

Right, a polite way of saying go away.

You know you could have at least given

me a chance to repay all those nice things you did for me.

Um, did I tell you I got a girlfriend now?

Uh, like for the last year.

I'd like to meet her sometime.

You know, that would be great.

We could have you over for dinner.

Well, you know what? Lunch.

Lunch.

I'll give you a call.

You know where to find me, cowboy.

Cowboy?

Oh, you heard all that, huh?

Oh, I heard enough.

So that's Stella, huh?

That's Stella.

You know, judging from that woman's body language,

I think she genuinely hates you.

Yet, she wants to get into your pants all at the same time.

What's that about?

Well, when I figure it out, I'll let you know.

You wouldn't believe the stuff she

used to try to get me to do.

Like what?

Let me put it this way, ever worn a rubber suit?

Whoa, whoa, that's enough sharing for me, pal.

So listen, Kendra's sister wants us all to get

together for dinner tonight.

Can you make it?

Um, uh, mm, tonight? Tonight?

Tonight? Uh, I can't.

I can't tonight, because, because--

Jodi-- Jodi and I have dinner plans.

Why are you acting so funny?

I'm not acting funny, am I?

Yes, you are.

You're making it sound like I'm trying to hide something.

I'm-- August, I just can't make it to dinner tonight.

I mean, jeez.

MAN: Teach me.

Only teach love as I art.

I will speak thy speech, love.

Think thy thought.

Meet if thou require both demands laying

flesh and spirit on thy hands.

That shall be tomorrow, not tonight.

I must bury sorrow out of sight.

Where's my-- where's my lighter?

You were the one who didn't like her.

She was clean, very pretty [INAUDIBLE]..

But you made me hurt her.

Please don't do that.

You know I don't like knives.

Please, don't be.

I promise I won't tell.

You hurt me.

[THUNDER]

What?

Hi.

Sorry.

That's all right.

That's all right.

I just wanted to say hi.

I know something's bothering you.

I could tell the minute you walked in.

Yeah.

Something is bothering me, Jodi.

Is it the serial killer?

Yeah, it's that.

But, um, something else, too, something I really don't want

you to have to worry about.

Try me.

Oh, boy.

Kendra made a pass at me.

Oh, ha, ha, really funny, Chase.

Jodi, I'm not kidding.

She made a pass at me.

Are you sure about this, Chase?

She kissed me.

She kissed you?

She's-- she's one of my closest friends, OK.

She would not do that.

Look, I am going to call her right now.

Whoa, whoa, Jodi, Jodi.

You can't, OK?

Please.

I haven't even told August about this yet.

I have to talk to him tomorrow morning, all right?

Please don't call her.

Hi, Chase.

Kendra, hi.

Is, uh, August here?

I don't know.

You know what?

Kendra, we need to talk about yesterday.

Uh, I don't know exactly how to explain what happened.

And it's making me very uncomfortable.

Kendra.

Well, it speaks for itself.

I came on to you, and you panicked.

But that's OK.

Because I don't go for wimps anyway.

Wimps?

Hey, I'm not a wimp.

Yeah?

Who else would reject a body like this besides a fool?

Fool?

A friend.

A friend, that's who.

And I'm August's friend.

And I'm just letting you know that-- that I'm

going to tell him.

Uh-oh.

I thought I just heard Chase in here.

- He just left. - Eh.

August, sweetie, I have a little confession

I have to make.

I think you better sit down for this.

You've been at it again, haven't you?

August.

Honey, she does this all the time.

Morning, people.

Morning August.

You know, I thought about this stuff all night last night.

This crap does not lead to anything.

Lucy, could you get a print off that lighter?

LUCY: No.

Let me ask you something.

Where is it?

On these lighters, you have to refill 'em,

you have to take 'em apart, right?

Hm-hmm.

Is there a chance that there might

be a fingerprint on the inside?

There's a chance, and it's probably smeared.

Well, it's worth a try.

LUCY: All right.

Listen, um, McDonald.

Yeah.

How's that, um, friend of yours

you were tellin' me about?

My friend?

Yeah, you know, the one with the cheating wife?

Oh, him.

He's fine.

That's good.

That's good.

Because if something like that went down with my wife,

I'd have to grab my piece and bust a cap in somebody's butt,

you know what I'm saying?

Really?

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Really.

LUCY: Guys, I think I've got something.

- Fingerprint? - Yup.

And it definitely looks doable.

Great.

Run it.

All right.

Print.

Really?

[SIRENS]

Michael Hayes, this guy's a veteran of the penal system,

attempted rape, assault with a deadly weapon,

attempted murder.

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: Sounds like he

led a pretty crappy life.

Yeah, well, doesn't come as a big surprise.

Is says here that his guardian Aunt Bea committed suicide

after he tried to kill her.

Sounds like a very special family.

August, um, speaking of families,

remember that friend of mine I was

telling you about the other day, the one

with the partner and the wife?

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Yeah.

Well, actually that was--

This is it.

I see the black and whites are here.

[SIRENS]

OK, people.

This one is ours.

Police!

MALE COP: There's a back room back there.

Check it out.

FEMALE COP: All cleared here.

MALE COP: Check in the shower.

MALE COP: I'll check around back.

We're clear.

Another poem.

"Where the apple reddens, never pry, lest we

lose our Edens, even I."

I wonder who the prom queen is.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Looks like "Mommy Dearest."

Aunt Bea.

Aunt Bea.

Mac, rayon polyester blend.

Right color.

Inside pocket.

Michael Hayes, Hollywood Limousine Service.

I saw a limo out front when we pulled in.

Let's check it out.

Hey, come and bag this stuff.

Chase, that's our guy.

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: Blocked in.

Black and white.

[SIRENS]

- August, he turned. - I can see that.

Come on, speed up.

You're drivin' like an old lady today.

Why don't you sit in the back seat and drive?

[SIRENS]

Where'd he go?

Where'd he go?

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: I don't know.

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: I told you to drive faster.

Hey, give me some slack here, would you?

August, August, there he is!

He must've turned up there. That gate's locked.

Go, go, go!

[GROANING]

Clear.

August, August.

LAPD.

Identify yourself.

Joe Kirby.

I'm just a truck driver, man.

The guy drivin' this limo stole my rig, cold-cocked me.

- ID on the hood, right now. - OK.

Easy. Easy.

Does it check out?

Yeah.

All right, give us a description of the vehicle.

It's the red harvester towing a chrome tanker

filled with gasoline, license number C0069.

Which direction did he go?

Uh, he got on the Vine Street on-ramp

headed northbound on the 101.

- Are you all right? - Yeah.

All right, wait here, we'll get you an ambulance.

Let's go.

You make sure you get him!

- What are you doin'? - It's my turn to drive.

No, no, since when are we taking turns?

Aw, come on, August. He's gettin' away.

Get in.

I think it's you mind that's getting away.

Dispatch, this is 1 William 13.

Can you put me through to any available air

units over Hollywood?

RADIO DISPATCHER: This is air unit

three, go ahead 1 William 13.

Uh, unit three, this is 1 William 13.

We have a 187 suspect headed northbound on the 101,

a red harvester pulling a fuel tanker.

Can you give me a visual?

RADIO DISPATCHER: Roger that.

Your suspect just turned eastbound on Template highway,

now passing the Telegraph road off-ramp.

Roger that, air unit 3.

RADIO DISPATCHER: I'll be over your shoulder if you need me.

You know what, August?

We need to call for barricades.

Keep moving.

Keep it Keep moving.

Come on.

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: There he is.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: All right, all

right, stay close behind him

August, I don't think this guy's gonna stop.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Doesn't look like it.

Attention all barricades, look alive, men.

Looks like he's comin' through.

[GUN SHOTS]

Get out of the way!

All units, all units, use whatever

force necessary to stop this son of a bitch.

Be advised, 187 suspect is extremely dangerous.

[GUN SHOTS]

[EXPLOSION]

[SIRENS]

We're gonna need a tank to stop this guy.

Or some fancy drivin'.

Oh, I was afraid you'd say that.

[SIRENS]

What are we gonna do?

He's drivin' 10 tons, we're sitting on one.

August, see if you can get a shot at the tires.

Right.

I dropped it!

I dropped my gun.

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: Get it!

Hang out, it's stuck between the doors.

Come on, August, what are you doin' down there?

Do you mind?

Did you get it?

Not yet.

It's wedged.

Wedged?

[SIRENS]

[CAR HORNS]

Where are all these cars coming from?

It's all over the place.

Listen, keep it steady, would you?

If I miss, I could blow that payload.

Whoa, whoa, you think we're close enough?

Oh, jeez, we're in trouble now.

It's just us and him now, partner.

Hold on.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Can we talk about this first?

Look out. Look out!

Whoa!

[COUGHING]

- Pinch me. - What?

Pinch me!

Ow!

Yes.

Yes.

I'm alive!

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: I don't believe it.

How could anyone walk away from something like that?

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Relax, Chase.

Choppers are in the air.

Search teams with canines are on their way.

We're going to get this guy.

How about the trucker and the bus driver?

Bus driver's gonna make it.

He's on the way to the hospital right now.

Thank god there weren't any kids on the bus.

August?

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Yeah?

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: Check this out.

What do you got?

He went up there.

McDonald!

Oh, jeez.

Stop following me!

You got me into trouble again.

I don't know if I'll get out of this one.

It's your fault.

DETECTIVE CHASE MCDONALD: Broken branch, August, broken branch.

Where'd you learn how to do this Tonto thing?

Boy Scouts.

He's in that warehouse.

OK.

But one, ah.

OK.

On three.

Whoa, whoa, wait, wait, wait, wait.

There's something I need to get off my chest first.

Now?

I don't know how to tell you this, August.

But Kendra--

Oh, jeez.

She came on to you. - You knew?

Hey, I didn't have anything to do with it.

I mean, you're not mad, are you?

Well, normally, I would be if it were Kendra.

But it was Kendra's twin sister.

She's in town.

She's the one who came on to you.

She's like that.

Did the same thing to Kendra and I when we first dated.

Twin sister?

How come you never told me she had a twin sister?

Relax.

She told me this morning.

I was ribbing you with it earlier.

Now it's not so funny.

I'm glad you found it so funny.

I've been stressing over this for the last two days.

Hey, at least now I know I can trust you.

See?

It all worked itself out.

Great.

I feel like a big jerk.

When you're done feelin' like a big jerk, can we

go on in, get this over with?

Three.

August, I smell gasoline.

DETECTIVE AUGUST BROOKS: Lots of it.

Welcome, detectives.

I was wondering if you were ever going to find me.

My aunt told me to kill them.

I had no choice.

You have a choice now.

You can walk out of here.

You're a sick man, Hayes.

We can get you help.

It doesn't work.

I feel so terrible.

I didn't want to hurt any of them.

I'm relieved you've come to my rescue.

Listen, Hayes, why don't you come down here, huh?

Nice and slow.

We can talk about this.

August, if he drops that lighter,

they're going to be scraping us off the ceiling

with a squeegee.

Don't do it, Hayes.

Must a little weep, love, foolish me.

And so fall asleep, love, loved by thee.

They never understood me Thank you.

[GUN SHOTS]

[EXPLOSION]

Good work, men. That was real good.

Of course, don't expect a promotion or anything.

Hm, nothing like a pat on the back from the big chief, huh?

Right.

Hi, honey.

Hi, Rosie.

You don't have to hide, Chase.

How do you tell them apart?

Oh, I can tell them apart.

My baby's a lot cuter.

We stopped on the way to the airport,

because Rosie has something to say.

Don't you, sister?

I wanted to apologize, Chase.

Jodi called Kendra and yelled at her.

And I almost ruined that friendship, too.

I guess I just do that.

Yes, you sure do.

Hey, it's already forgotten.

I mean, I guess it was kind of funny.

August and I laughed about it for hours, didn't we August?

Yeah, ha, ha, ha.

I just love a man with a sense of humor.

You do, huh?

I got someone I want you to meet.

Hey, Richardson, come here for a second.

RICHARDSON: Yeah.

Have you ever met August's his wife, Kendra?

Oh, yeah, sure. Hi.

Hi, there.

Listen, I got some paperwork I got to take care of, all right?

OK.

God, you sure are a handsome man, aren't you?

All these authority figures are making my little head spin.

Oh, hey, can I get you an aspirin or something?

I had a little something better in mind.

You're married to Brooks, right?

McDonald, what did you just do?

Me?

Nothing.
