What's a five-letter word For perfect?

Mel gibson.

That's nine letters.

But it's the right answer.

Try ideal.

It fits.

Thanks, harry.

( deep sigh )

So much time, So little to do.

I always figured I'd outgrow spring fever.

Maybe we should Call it a day

It's 8:00 in the morning, And you're on a case.

I'm looking for a kid Who blows up toilets bowls.

I feel a contagious flu Coming on.

I don't feel So good either.

Kind of an achy feeling?

We should take the day off, Have a picnic

And recover for tomorrow.

Try immoral.

Iok is hot.

How did you get so good At crosswords?

( fuller Clears his throat )

I realize You're all hard at work

So I'll make This brief.

It's all yours, captain.

Thank you, hanson.

As some of you may have noticed, Summer is almost here

And school Is coming To a close.

City hall has decided

That as we concentrated On high school undercover work

We will also be closed For the summer.

You'll all Be given

Extra Vacation time.

All right. Yes.

Whoo!

You'll have the opportunity

To work at a variety Of different departments.

Rotation.

Rotation.

Police and civic programs.

You'll have Priority

For any department You're interested in.

When do we Come back?

Deputy chief glanzman told me

We'll return Just before the fall semester--

Around labor day.

A list of available jobs Will be posted in the morning.

Ioki: Excuse me, Captain.

You were told We were coming back?

That's what I said.

But you didn't say We were coming back for sure.

If we're coming Back for sure

You would Have said

We're coming back Around labor day.

Are we coming back?

I don't know.

Staff: What?

Fuller: Look, guys.

I've seen this Happen before.

A good program gets put on hold.

Then some accountant decides

They save more money Than the program's worth.

End of program.

We can't let this happen.

The city Loves us, Right?

The mayor says We're his pet project.

Let's not Panic yet.

I'm asking for permission

To see the city Administrative officer.

See what the budget Boys are up to.

That's good. That's good.

No, that's bad.

He'll try beating me down With bureaucratic buzzwords

Like "Obsolescence " And "Cost effectiveness."

That's bad.

Well, not that bad.

I'll make a case To the city council

And prove That we are not obsolete

And we are cost effective.

Will it work?

Not if they've Already made up their minds.

Man: In point of fact

Although eyewitness testimony Was sketchy

And contradictory

There was strong

Ballistic evidence Linking sacco's gun

To the actual murders.

Some experts now feel Sacco was guilty

But vanzetti was not.

( toilet flushing )

( explosion )

The mad bomber Has struck again.

( elated students celebrate )

You all know The routine.

( fire alarm rings )

The end of another Grueling school day.

Hanson, how you doing With the mad bomber?

He flushed another M-80 down the toilet.

Water shut down And we got the day off.

Any suspects?

Yeah, the whole Senior class.

Put penhall on it.

He loves hanging out In bathrooms.

I know it's spring.

Nobody wants to work Or go to class

But plumbing repairs Cost the city money

Both: So find the bomber.

Penhall: Foot patrol

Computer programming, Traffic

S.W.A.T.--

There's a world Of opportunities Out there, folks.

Listen to this.

"Community relations--

"People with good Communication skills

"Who can work With the public

And enhance the reputation Of the police department."

Translation: Must have great legs.

Find anything?

Yeah, anti-terrorism.

They've got great uniforms.

You might look into it.

That is

If you catch The mad bomber.

Any assignment Sounds good to me.

Aren't you tired Of going to high school?

You sound like dorothy.

She's driving me crazy!

I just love Your car, cynthia.

Oh, thanks.

It's kind of yuppie

But it's such A great machine.

What do you Drive, douglas?

A hog.

He drives a motorcycle

But we're shopping For a new car.

That's great.

My husband goes dirt bike riding Every saturday.

He just loves it.

Penhall: He must be very well-rounded.

( blow landing )

( gasps )

What do you think?

I think It's fabulous.

This is one of the most Adorable little houses

On the market... In your price range.

This whole place could fit In my loft.

Dorothy let me show you Something really special.

This is a guest bathroom. Look at that floor.

That's the original tile. Isn't it a kick?

What is it?

It's barnyard motif.

What are those Animals there doing?

Dorothy, let me show You the upstairs.

You know as well as anyone, Captain

The plan is for your office To shut down for summer

And return in the fall.

But why close us down This summer?

We ran straight through last Year and we had plenty of work.

It's purely dollars and cents.

Closing down A high school Undercover unit

Is cost effective.

Cost effective.

That's right.

Look, you remember The lombard shelter project.

Yes, it was A good program.

I was assigned there.

It was a good program.

We got temporarily shut down.

I remember that.

Then we were reclassified As obsolete

And never reactivated.

I think you're jumping To conclusions.

The jump street program

Hasn't been reclassified As obsolete.

You haven't been Reclassified at all.

We haven't?

No, we don't use that word Anymore.

What you've been Is de-prioritized.

De-prioritized?

I must say...

You make a very impressive Candidate, miss hoffs.

With your education And obvious abilities

You could go far In community relations.

Oh, thank you

But I'd only be involved For the summer.

I'm attached to

The jump street program

And my first choice Is police work.

This is police work, Officer hoffs.

I think you'll find what we do

To be both challenging And extremely rewarding.

I'm sure I will.

There are many good cops In the department.

Few have the presence

To represent the police In the media.

The media?

Like, as in television?

Let me be honest.

This department is starved

For well-groomed, Articulate officers

Who can speak to the public

The news media, Even to the city council.

Don't take this summer job too Lighty, officer hoffs.

You could end up working For the mayor's office.

The riots that Followed the trial

Of mr. Sacco And mr. Vanzetti

Were far more Eventful...

Is anybody listening?

I know it's difficult To concentrate

But some of this May appear on the final.

Okay, here's the deal.

We all pay attention For the next half hour

And I return all the confiscated Squirt weapons

From the last two weeks.

Come on, that's a great offer.

We don't need the guns back, Mr. Morris.

Morris: Okay, knock it off.

Knock it off!

Hey, new guy.

Now!

So what do you Think, man?

About what?

"About what?"

About the bomber.

Don't you think He's cool?

You know who The bomber is?

Of course.

The bomber is a great guy.

He's a humanitarian

And he cares for His fellow students.

But do you know Who he is?

Why do you want to know?

Because I'd kind of like To meet him.

Well, I heard the bomber's A pretty tough guy to pin down.

Besides, he flies solo.

So you don't know who he is?

You're not listening to me.

Who's that guy?

That guy...

Is jimmy touchek.

The guy's a real loser.

You think he could Be the bomber?

That guy?

Listen, The bomber's cool.

That guy's a pack rat.

Look at him, He steals fruit.

Why don't you eat this.

It might help you.

Sure, I'll eat it.

It's cool, man.

I'd like your '86 and '87 Budget reports

And your projections For the next five years.

What do you mean you don't Project that far in advance?

I've told you, This is officer h.T. Ioki.

Then who do I speak to?

Damn.

Penhall, you better use Both sides of that paper.

We're not made of money Around here.

Choke on it, Harry.

Hi, how you doing?

Don't ask.

How did your interview go?

It went great.

The mayor's wife And chief of police

Have this new campaign

And need a spokesperson To handle the media.

And they picked you.

I'm a lock.

Yeah.

Eat your heart out.

While they have You riding

On that hot motorcycle Writing parking tickets

I'll deal with the media In air-conditioned comfort.

I'm thinking of attaching myself To the intelligence unit.

As what, a paper weight?

Everybody listen up.

There is a new Buzzword downtown--

"De-prioritized."

What the hell Does that mean?

It means That we've been moved down

On the list For discretionary funding.

If they run out of funds Before they get to us

This program could be killed.

Killed-- as in "Gone forever"?

Could be.

I want everybody To think very carefully

About the job They choose for this summer

Because jump street May not reopen this fall.

We've been de-prioritized.

( knocking )

Yeah?

Captain, I've got the arrest Efficiency determinations here.

I should have those Budget reports by tomorrow.

Thank you, ioki.

Listen--

How does it really look?

Not great.

I'll do my own budget projection For the program.

I'll have it ready tomorrow.

Ioki.

You're a good man.

You can have Your pick

Of any job in the department.

I've already got a job I want.

Can I help you, pal?

Will this outlet Carry a hot plate and a tv?

Why?

Because I'll be Looking after this place.

I like my hot plate Sitting next to my television.

Listen, this is my building.

Not this summer.

I got 22 years seniority

And sitting in this empty Building over the summer

Is my reward For faithful services rendered.

You can't come in here And take my job like that.

I just have.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Yeah?

Let me ask you a question.

How many years seniority Have you got, mate?

Do we have To do this?

We're only having dinner With them.

I know.

It's just...

Having dinner with people Makes me uncomfortable.

Couldn't we Just eat?

What is wrong with you?

It's just when people Have dinner together

They take it so seriously.

They set the table, Put napkins in their laps

Get dressed up

And act so proper.

I'll laugh, I just know it.

This is my husband, steve.

How do you do.

Here.

Oh, thanks.

Could you chill this For us, dear?

Sure.

So... How about a margarita?

Steve makes the best in town.

I learned when we vacationed In puerto vallarta.

Sounds great.

How about a beer?

I have a case of german dark ale That will blow your mind.

Honey?

Okay.

Let me get you a glass.

I'll take the bottle.

Okay. Here.

Thanks.

That looks great.

I'm making A nouvelle veal

And pepper Tortellini

In basil Cream sauce.

Penhall: You can do that?

( shattering glass )

Sorry.

That's okay.

( giggles )

What's so funny, doug?

Uh, nothing.

( hysterics )

( hysterics )

I'm sorry.

It's just That I heard

This really dumb, stupid, Dumb, dirty joke today.

I love a good dirty joke.

Yeah, let's hear it.

No, it's too disgusting For the dinner table.

I'll tell You later.

So doug, cynthia tells me you're Interested in renting a house.

You know if you bought The house you could deduct The interest on your taxes.

No kidding?

Yeah, steve is the best finacial Advisor in town.

He could figure out a way That you could own that House for feee.

Well, not quite free.

But if I take a look at your Finacial statement

I bet I can find some nice Investments for you and increase Your net worth.

My net worth?

The net worth is how much money You're worth in cash And properties.

Fourty two bucks.

Excuse me.

My net worth. 42 bucks. Got it my wallet. Well I paid For wine, 40 bucks.

Exactly what do you do For the police department?

Undercover work In high schools.

You pretend to be a student?

Yeah, I hang out With the kids

And find out who's Committing the real big crimes.

Boy, it must be weird

Hanging out with high school Kids all day long.

It's weird hanging out With high school kids

But this summer I'm switching To intelligence work.

Hmm.

Dodo, I'm sorry.

That's okay.

It's just that they're real old.

They're only two years older Than we are.

That's all?

They live like adults.

We live like the three stooges.

We live just fine.

I want to grow up.

I need more than sitting Around with your friends

Eating pizza And having belching contests.

Hey.

I was checking the place out

And stumbled Onto your penthouse here.

How long have you Been living here?

You could take the whole Place down from here, huh?

Get out of here.

Take it easy.

I do what I want.

I said get out.

You're crazy.

I'm not crazy.

Then why are you living In a boiler room?

I got no place Else to live.

My mother ran off With some drunk

And I've got No other relatives.

The only place They can stick me

Is in a lock-up.

Why did you come down here?

Just messing around.

Are you the bomber?

No, I thought you were.

Are you kidding?

Every time that creep Blows off an m-80

I've got to go a day And a half without water.

Listen, man

Don't tell anybody About me, okay?

Thanks.

Captain.

Excuse me, I'm sorry.

But you got To do something.

It ain't right For a guy to march in

And boot a guy with a wife

And four kids Into the street.

Calm down, sal.

I told you, I'll look into it.

This building needs me.

I'm the only one Who knows how to fix it.

I don't even think This guy's an american.

I know, sal, I know.

You just hang in there.

I am working on it.

Thanks, captain.

Hey, man, I'm...

Pardon me, sal.

Next.

Captain, Is it all right

If I ask your advice On something?

That's what I'm here for.

Do you think because, you know

I spend all my time undercover With high school kids

That makes me act immature?

What brought this on?

I just think I spend A lot of time in high schools.

Don't get me wrong.

I love this work And if we come back--

I mean, when we come back--

I'll be the first one there

But I'm wondering About the summer job.

You think I'd be any good At intelligence?

I would be very proud To write you a recommendation.

Okay.

Thanks, captain.

Hey, it's just For the summer, right?

Blowfish: Get the hell out Of my fuse box!

Where did you Get those shorts?

I stole them out Of an open locker.

You look Ridiculous.

Yeah? You should Have seen the guy

I stole them from.

Doesn't this place Give you the creeps

When nobody's Here?

It used to.

The isolation used To really get to me.

There were nights

When I'd be curled up, Afraid to move

And wake up the next morning In the same position.

How did you get used to it?

Time, I guess.

You learn how to use The isolation, the solitude.

I spend more time In the library.

You know, in three weeks' time

I'll graduate with straight a's.

Last year I was lucky to even pass.

I don't think I'm going to pass.

I can't stand school.

I'm going to college No matter what it takes.

There's no way I'll end up

Working in a doughnut Factory like my mother.

Drinking myself to death

Coming home To some drunk who's even

More stupid Than I am.

There's no way, man.

I'm not going to live like that.

Yeah.

I'm going to grab A pizza after school.

Want to go?

It's on me.

No, thanks, I got to study For finals.

Okay.

Hey, tom.

Thanks for not telling anybody About me, okay?

Sure.

Judy.

I have got some great news For you.

You got the job.

Oh, great.

They'll run your picture In the department bulletin

And we've talked To live at five.

I think We can get you on

To plug the program Later this month.

I can't believe it.

I'm taking a big chance on you, Officer hoffs.

Everyone In this department

Covets that job.

There's going To be a lot of resentment.

I want you to handle

Your fellow officers With dignity.

I will, sir.

Okay, now be sure

To address the mayor's wife As mrs. Gentry

And be tasteful With the make-up.

Okay? This is a very

Wholesome campaign.

Children, I'd like you To give a warm welcome

To a special visitor From the police department

Who has come to talk To you about safety.

Please give a big hello

To officer Milk carton.

Children: Hi, officer milk carton!

( children cheering )

Gentlemen, If you'll open to page three

We'll look into the '86 and '87 Budget reports

And arrest efficiency Determinations.

Captain, excuse me.

Your presentation Is impeccable

But you're wasting your time.

Please let the captain finish.

Deputy chief glanzman, At the station house

You run The show.

On my turf, you defer to me.

How can you talk like that?

I'll talk... Fuller: Gentlemen, please.

Phil, I can handle This myself.

I am here to address Your concerns.

You're here to save your job.

My job is not in jeopardy.

No, but your program is.

And the bottom Line is, captain

We're throwing away money On a program

That compromises Our children's rights

Through intimidation And entrapment.

What the hell Do you think we do--

Arrest kids For sticking gum Under their desks?

In the past 18 months, We've busted dope dealers

Gun runners, prostitution rings, Child pornographers.

You want those Kinds of people

Around Your children?

No.

Then, councilman, If you please

I would like To continue my report.

This program Is humiliating.

I feel ridiculous Dressed as a carton of milk.

I want out of this.

Fine, you tell The mayor's wife

You're above Participating

In her Pet project.

Ioki: Jude, how's life at the top?

How do you Like p.R.?

Oh, it's great.

It's a terrific assignment.

Can I have a slice?

Yeah, sure.

Hey, captain, Come help us Graze it up.

I mean, care for A slice of pizza?

Don't mind if I do.

How did it go At city hall?

Well, we made A good case.

And?

And those reports You did for us

Made a big impression On everybody.

Penhall: But?

But city councilman davis Made it pretty clear

That he's campaigning To close us down.

What did we do-- Bust his kid?

How else Can we help?

We did our best.

If you are going To be career cops

Get used To disappointments.

I've seen good programs wash out

And I've said good-bye To a lot of good friends.

Hoffs: Remember that one summer In high school

Where everybody Changed?

In the fall, All your friends were different.

I hated that.

I remember one year, The toughest guy in school--

Billy larocca-- Went to california.

He came back With green hair

And a surfboard.

Change isn't so bad.

It's part of growing up.

Thank you, Mr. Maturity.

( penhall belches )

Damn, got to Stop doing that.

Well, I've had enough changes In my life.

Every time I start To feel secure

Some outside forces step in And ruin everything.

That's the way of the world, Harry.

Nothing's forever.

I think this pizza's

Staying With me, Though.

I don't see what Everybody's misty about.

We could be stepping Into the best

Assignments we ever had.

( beeping )

Your printout's ready.

The bomber?

Ran the names

Of all the seniors Through the computer.

Anybody got a record?

Only one kid.

Penhall: Good school.

Maybe I'll buy in that district.

Who is it?

James robert touchek.

Wanted for car theft

And escape from juvenile Facility in madison, wisconsin.

You know the guy?

Yeah, I was At his place Last night.

Wake up.

I want to talk To you.

What are you doing?

You lied to me.

What are you Talking about?

Where did you get that?

Where do you think?

You're a cop?

I don't get it.

Why didn't you Bust me yesterday?

Because I wasn't looking For you.

I'm looking for somebody Who's blowing up toilets.

Get your stuff Together.

No.

I'm not leaving here Without my diploma.

You were busted For stealing a car.

Don't give me That mom garbage.

She ran out on me.

Instead of taking me home, She let them lock me up.

Get your Stuff together.

No, I'm not going anywhere.

What are you Doing this for?

Because it's my job.

I've been living like A sewer rat for months

Because I want to do Something with my life.

I want an education.

I'm not a danger To society.

You don't have To protect them from me.

You can't Send me back there.

I can't stand it.

Just let me graduate.

Please.

Buy me a cup Of coffee?

Oh, phil.

Thanks for your Support yesterday.

It was a big help.

You didn't need any, Adam.

Those councilmen were Very impressed with you.

Impressed enough To save the program?

Programs come and go

But there's more than A buzz going around

About possibly giving you Your own area to command.

Before that buzz Gets too loud

Let me clarify that My first concern Is jump street.

With this big promotion

You could run everything South of the freeway.

I only want To run jump street.

Just want you to know Strings could be pulled.

Think about it?

Yeah.

There is something.

My maintenance man's Being featherbedded Out of his job.

Can you do something To give him some seniority?

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Hi.

Hi.

Thanks For meeting me here.

What's going on?

Come on in.

I've got Some lunch for us.

Pizza?

Pasta salad...

And a little wine.

Ta-da.

Doug, are you All right?

Oh, yeah, I'm just great.

Want a little wine?

Sure.

There you go.

All right.

A little for me.

What are we Doing here?

Well...

It's where we live.

I told cynthia

We'd take the place.

Doug, are you sure?

Yep.

I'm really surprised.

Here's another Surprise for you.

My application To work in intelligence--

They approved it.

Doug, I'm really proud of you.

But what brought this on?

Well, I figured it was Time for me to grow up.

If he's a fugitive You've got to bring him in.

It's not that simple.

He screwed up and stole a car

But he wants To get straight.

He'll just be back into juvenile Because he's got no home.

He is still a fugitive.

I know that.

Then bring him in.

He's got a few days Left in school.

Let me stall until then.

Uh-uh.

He's living in the basement Of a school

Just so he Can graduate.

Will the state do better At rehabilitating him?

Did you contact His correctional officer?

Yeah.

What did you Tell him?

I told him that we might Have a lead on the kid.

Very good.

Sneaky, but very good.

All right, call him back

But not until very late In the afternoon.

You might Miss him.

Then when he calls you back Tomorrow, don't take the call.

Then call him again Very late in the day.

Hope you miss him.

If you get him By mistake.

Hang up.

You've done this before.

I've got an ex-wife, hanson.

Thanks, coach.

Oh, and hanson...

Yeah.

Find the bomber.

Yeah.

Doug.

Yeah.

Thanks.

For what?

For such A great lunch.

I didn't cook it.

Yeah, but you did A fine job of serving it.

Uh, dor...

You excuse me a second?

Sure.

Hey, buddy, Hold on a second.

Let me show you something About your swing.

I had this problem When I was a kid.

Throw me That glove, there.

Your problem is Lifting up your heel.

Hey, okay, Got a batter.

( crowd cheering )

I love watching you With kids.

Well, I love... Being with kids.

Maybe I'll coach A team sometime, huh?

Doug, we don't have To take the house.

I've been forcing you To make changes

And you're just Doing it for me.

Maybe I just wanted you To change to show you care.

Of course, I care for you.

I know.

Doug penhall, You don't have to change.

You're perfect.

Come here.

Baby, you're the greatest.

Hoffs: Did everyone remember To look both ways?

Children: Yes.

Get up on the corner.

Come on over here.

Now what do you do If a stranger offers you a ride?

Never take a ride From a stranger.
