Good morning, captain.

Oh. Dietrich.

I did knock.

Quite all right.

I finished off those Quarterly summarizations.

I put them on your desk.

Oh. Thank you. Thank you.

You must have Checked in pretty early.

Yep. Midnight.

Worked a double shift.

Ah. That, uh, that Explains the stubble.

Hmm.

I must to the barber's,

For methinks I am marvelous Hairy about the face.

Shakespeare.

All right, everything He wrote wasn't gold.

- sergeant. - yeah.

- captain. - levitt.

Today's manpower Reports, be they as they are.

Thank you, levitt.

I notice a goodly number Of uniformed officers,

Including myself, have been Assigned to crowd control

At today's antinuclear Parade and protest.

We, uh... We got advanced word

That there will be a Number of film favorites

And other l.A. Types winging In for the demonstration.

You will keep an eye on 'em?

Easy to spot, sir.

Carl, you know, most Of the people at the rally

Are just gonna be Ordinary citizens.

They're there because They sincerely believe

That the proliferation Of nuclear technology

Not only threatens the Welfare of this country,

But the survival Of the entire planet.

I heard the harmonicats Might show up.

Gosh, I hope so.

You seem to have formulated

Some pretty definite opinions On the subject, huh, dietrich?

Yeah, I've researched it.

Decided that the Risks in nuclear power

Far outweigh the benefits.

Of course, that's one opinion.

Huh?

Well, I myself have done a good Deal of reading on the topic.

Last week there was an excellent Article in people magazine.

Oh, yeah. Right next to The story on hot tubs.

Of course, you have to admit There are good points to be made

For the pronuclear side.

No.

Well, sergeant, if You're sure of all this,

I'm surprised you're not Attending today's demonstration.

I am.

Feel free to step in, sir.

Uh, dismissed, levitt.

Thank you, sir.

He started it.

You going to that rally today?

Well, I didn't work a Double shift to make points.

You are aware of policy

Regarding outside Political activity?

I just don't buy it.

It's not the point.

You do know that the department

Does restrict the Police officer's

Political involvement, Even on his own time?

Cops have the same constitutional Rights as anybody else.

That's not the question.

It's getting to the point Where a cop can't exercise

His right of free Speech and assembly

Without having to Worry about big brother.

That's probably him now.

12th precinct. Wojciehowicz.

Good morning, barn.

Good morning.

I've got a disturbance On second avenue.

Uh, you and wojo.

Why me? I just got here.

Well, you took the call.

Oh.

Okay.

12th precinct. Sergeant harris.

Uh-huh. Tynan.

Finance.

Uh, no, sir, I'm sorry. He Stepped out for a moment.

Could I take a message?

That's it?

Okay.

I'll certainly tell him.

Ah, yeah. Thank you.

Oh, uh, barney, you Just missed a call.

From whom?

A mr. Tynan at the Bull's-eye finance company.

Did he leave a number?

Uh-uh. He left a message.

What did he say?

"No."

He said you'd understand.

Oh, I guess it wasn't the Response you'd hoped for.

Uh, barney, I'm sure It can be worked out,

Whatever it is.

Barn, is there Something I can do?

How'd you like To lend me $9,000?

Of course, if you'd Rather not talk about it...

I've decided to Buy my apartment.

Oh, the condo. You took my advice.

The only problem is,

They've raised the down Payment another 5%.

I don't know where I'm Gonna get the money.

Barn, are you sure you've Completely liquidated yourself?

Well, I've sold what Few stocks I've owned.

I borrowed money On my life insurance.

I don't know what else I can do.

Hey, barn what about That vacation property

You said you Invested in up in maine?

Couldn't you get a Few bucks from that?

We never put in the lake.

What?

It was in the brochure.

Oh.

Oh.

Barn, barn, come here.

Inside, daddy warbucks.

You keep it and See how you like it!

Captain, this is roy mcmanus.

He was creating a riot Outside the greenwich hotel.

I was just giving the People what they want.

When we drove up,

He was throwing money Out the fifth-floor window.

Is there a law against that?

Hey, barn, you Should have seen it.

There had to be 300 people There fighting to grab some.

They're running Out into traffic,

Wrestling on the sidewalk.

People are funny.

Anyway, we tried to get back

As much of the Money as we could.

Then we got up the Room, and we picked him up.

Yeah, looky here.

How much is in there?

$50,000.

And, you know, that's Just lunch money.

They keep sending me more.

Mr. Mcmanus won the New york state lottery.

$1 million.

A 10-million-to-1 shot,

And I'm the yutz That gets nailed.

I'm very sorry. Those things happen.

Oh, sure. That's big Talk from a poor person.

Listen, you should Live with this.

The pressures, the guilts.

Every day, there's Letters and phone calls

Pleading for help.

"My grandmother has To have a hip operation."

"I'm writing to you From my wheelchair."

"My son is on drugs, and They're very expensive."

It never stops.

I certainly sympathize With you, mr. Mcmanus,

But we're gonna have To book you anyway.

Wait a minute. On what charge?

Uh, disturbing the peace, Disorderly conduct,

Littering.

Have a seat, mr. Mcmanus, Right over there, huh?

- dietrich. - yo.

I want you to Count this stuff...

Very, very carefully.

Give mr. Mcmanus a receipt.

Forget it. Forget it. I Don't want the money.

We don't want it.

Captain, you Take it. I like you.

Mr. Mcmanus... Go On. Take it. It's yours.

Mr. Mcmanus, I wouldn't Know what to do with it.

Barney.

Okay, I need some information.

Everybody wants something.

All right. Just Relax, all right?

How much for a cup of coffee?

$100.

Fine. Cream and two sugars.

It's extra.

Go for it. Go for it.

What time you getting off?

5:00.

The rally will still Be going strong.

Oh, that's nice.

I just thought you Might want to come.

No. No. No, thanks.

I thought you might Be interested in an issue

As vital and far-reaching As nuclear power.

I have a skating lesson at 6:00.

You know, when this Starts out, it's great.

They pull your number. Everybody cheers and applauds.

They put you on the tv.

You shake hands With the governor.

Then they all go home,

And you're stuck With $1 million.

If you don't want The money, then...

There's just a lot better Things you can do with it

Than just tossing It out in the street.

Oh, yeah?

You mean like give it To some charity, huh?

Well, yeah. Yeah, You could do that.

Which one?

I've been hit up By all of them...

The heart people, The lung people,

The whale people, My chrysler dealer.

Uh, in the cage.

They don't tell you about that

When you buy the Ticket, you know.

Guess who.

Must we?

Very funny, harris.

Excuse me.

Sergeant dietrich.

Lieutenant scanlon.

You had a pretty good day, huh?

Oh, yeah, they were Throwing it at us.

Well, well, lieutenant scanlon.

Captain miller.

What brings you down here?

Hey, I have to have a reason?

Maybe I just Dropped in to say hi

And see how you guys are doing.

Sort of chew the fat with Some of my old pals, huh?

Is that why you're here?

No.

I'm gonna put the Money in the safe,

Then head on over to the rally.

Rally? What rally?

It's an antinuclear Demonstration.

Crowd control, huh?

Crowd.

What did he say?

Sergeant dietrich Is attending a rally

As a private citizen.

He can't do that.

Come on. Regulation 104-1, paragraph 5 states...

I'm fully aware

Of what regulation 104-1, Paragraph 5 has to say.

Okay, miller.

See you tomorrow, captain.

Hold it, sergeant.

Oh, you want to come?

You're not going to That demonstration.

Well, miller?

Take a shave, will you?

Thank you.

I thought we were pals.

"Or be a member of Any political club

"Or campaign for the Nomination or the election

"Of any candidate running for...

Public office."

First of all,

I'm not convinced that That regulation applies.

I mean, I'm not certain that This kind of demonstration

Can be categorized as political.

Miller, all I know is That on the one side

You got a bunch Of no-nuke kooks.

Then, on the other side, you Got a bunch of pro-nuke kooks,

And that makes it political.

You have a wonderful Grasp of our system.

Miller, the point is that A cop is supposed to be

About all those Things 100% neutral.

He don't work for no democrats.

He don't work for No republicans.

He doesn't stand for anything.

He doesn't stand Against anything.

A new york cop Stands for nothing.

At least I know I don't.

Very admirable.

All right.

Now that we've got Everything understood.

What are you Gonna do about that?

Nothing.

Miller, the code is Crystal clear on this thing.

Lieutenant, I cannot Dictate to a man

What he can or cannot Do on his own time.

You could try.

And the more I read This regulation,

The more it appears to me to Be blatantly unconstitutional.

So what?

"So what?"

There is no reason That a police officer

Cannot exercise his freedom Of speech or assembly

Without worrying whether Big brother is listening in.

Very well put.

Thank you.

Do I take this as to indicate

That you are going to Ignore this flagrant conduct?

Look, lieutenant, The man is at a rally

With thousands of people.

It's gonna be over In a couple of hours,

And everything is Gonna be finished.

I really can't see that you're Gonna make that many points

Trying to make a Big deal out of this.

So, what's the story on This bull's-eye finance?

Did you get the loan?

Harris, did you know that a Major nuclear-plant accident

Could cause 45,000 Deaths, 100,000 injuries,

And spread Contamination over an area

The size of the state Of pennsylvania?

That today's chuckle?

No, it's a study from the Atomic energy commission.

Hmm.

It's quoted in this Book dietrich gave me.

Oh, I see he's Making the rounds.

You know, I used to think

That we should just get All the power we could,

With the energy shortage And oil embargoes.

I'm not so sure now.

Some scary stuff in there.

Oh, thank you.

Of course, I realize That it might be one-sided.

License to kill."

Maybe a little.

You want to read it?

Uh, no, I think I'll Wait for the movie.

I just hate to see an officer Get in over his head, miller.

I mean, come on now.

Before you know it, He's taking it on the side.

Miller,

Money problems can make even The best cop revert to normal.

Your concern is touching.

You know, a funny thing...

When I walked in here And I saw all that moola

Laying all over that Desk, for a second,

I thought you'd already Started passing the hat.

No need to explain. I trust you guys.

I'll give you 50 bucks if I can use the bathroom.

$75.

You got it.

I don't even want to know.

Hi.

Oh, um, can I help you?

I'm audrey mcmanus.

I have a bail ticket For roy mcmanus.

Oh, I believe your father's

In the bathroom Right now, ma'am.

Is that supposed to be funny?

Oh, mrs. Mcmanus. I'm sorry.

I just assumed...

I mean, looking at you And looking at, uh...

Now it makes sense.

We're newlyweds.

Uh, I hope you have many Happy years together.

Or not.

Roy, what happened?

Is the seville all right?

Sergeant, this is my wife.

Oh. Uh, how you doing?

I can't complain. What's going on?

Uh...

Audrey, I... I just got fed Up. I had to do something.

What do you mean?

What's he talking about?

He was throwing his Money out a window

To people on the street.

Oh.

I think we better talk.

Fine. Yeah.

I finished this Busywork you gave me.

Thank you.

By the way, barn, young Mrs. Mcmanus showed up

With her husband's bail ticket.

Fine.

You can forget about that money.

Anything else?

Uh, yeah, barn.

Barney, look.

I've been thinking About your situation,

And, uh, hey, barn, look,

I know you wouldn't Take any money from me,

But another thought Did occur to me.

What's that?

I could buy your apartment.

What?

Well, barn, I mean, you Could still live there.

I mean, god knows I Don't want to, but, uh,

I would buy it and then Lease it back to you.

And that way, you Wouldn't have to move.

I appreciate the Gesture, but I'm...

I'm sure I'll be able to Work something out.

Barney, look, I mean,

You know that all this Money has been pouring in

From "Blood on the badge,"

And, uh, I feel that you Were a very important factor

In the success of the book,

And I figured that maybe This was a small way

In which I could repay you.

Well...

Barn, this could be The ideal solution,

And the rent wouldn't be That much higher than it is now.

Well, barney, I mean, it's got To at least cover my payments.

Uh, thanks, but, uh, I mean...

Look at it.

You'd be getting all the Advantages of ownership...

The tax break, The appreciation...

And I'd be paying for it.

Barney, I got to get Something out of this.

Audrey, when I threw that Money out to those people,

They started clawing And scratching each other.

I can't believe you'd do this.

I mean, you're married To someone for six weeks

And you think you know them.

I don't want the money anymore.

Why, because of the Calls and letters?

We could move Away... Someplace else.

It's not that.

What's the matter?

I don't deserve it.

Yes, we do.

Oh, where do I get Off winning $1 million?

Why should one man Have all that money

When there are people All over the world

Who are starving and suffering?

They had the same chance as you.

Look, I know it's Hard for some people

To think only of themselves,

To ignore other People's problems,

But you could at least try.

I can't. I can't.

Roy, stop feeling so miserable.

You're not making Anyone else any happier.

I know that, but... But...

Roy, stop feeling so Sorry for yourself.

You won the money, over and out.

The only thing to do Now is to start enjoying it.

Yeah, I guess so.

I mean, why don't you go out

And buy something Just for yourself...

Something you never Could have had before?

Like you?

Good example.

Uh, excuse me.

Mcmanus, you're getting out.

Okay, just come on down Here, sign this receipt.

You'll get your $50,000.

What about my valuables?

Oh, you mean your comb?

Yeah. I've had That since the war.

Are you being helped?

I'm mrs. Mcmanus.

Oh.

Everyone says that.

Uh, barn?

I'm giving mr. Mcmanus His money back now, okay?

It's his money.

All right. There's Your $50,000, and, uh...

Here's your comb.

Thanks.

Well, captain, bye now.

Good luck, mr. Mcmanus.

Thank you.

Uh, listen, it might Be a good idea

If I sent an officer Along with you

To escort you to the bank.

Well, that's okay. I got her.

Oh, oh, oh!

Uh, captain, are you sure

You wouldn't like to Have a couple of thousand?

Roy!

It's okay. I'm just Teasing the poor person.

He's one in 10 million.

I just feel funny Doing this, sergeant.

Don't worry about it, carl.

What are you Doing back, dietrich?

Sir, I take it you Haven't heard.

About what?

The nuclear demonstration Turned into a bit of a melee.

We had to make About 300 arrests.

Oh, my god.

They're trying to process Most of them downstairs.

Wonderful.

I brought sergeant Dietrich up here

Because I thought you might Want to book him personally.

If you're busy, I Can do it myself.

Dietrich.

What happened?

I got arrested.

For what?

Exercising my right of Free speech and assembly.

Yeah, yeah.

I believe the specific charges

Are unlawful assembly And failure to disperse.

That's an opinion.

A cop tells you to Disperse, you just disperse.

I tried. They just weren't Giving anybody a chance.

Did you identify Yourself as a policeman?

- yes. - they arrested you anyway?

I insisted.

It didn't seem right For me to get off

While a lot of my friends Were getting busted.

It's a very noble sentiment.

Listen, I'm very Sorry about this,

But in my opinion, the Cops overreacted.

I didn't.

Except for carl.

I'm afraid the Problem at the moment

Is what the hell to do with you.

Book me.

Okay.

Uh, harris.

Oh, no.

If you'll have a seat at Sergeant harris' desk,

He'll be glad to take Your information.

Hey, listen, is this Gonna take long?

I got to get to Work in the morning.

What did you say?

Come on, speak up.

Okay.

Barn, we got a riot.

- where? - downstairs.

I was with you guys.

What's in that?

Atomic water, sir.

Captain, that is Not from the core.

That is simply water that Was pumped through the plant

To cool the reactor turbines

And return to its Original source,

And it is perfectly harmless.

Uh, wojo, do you want to Take care of mr. Haskell?

Yes, sir. Over here.

If people would Give me the chance,

I could prove to you how Nuclear power could be safe.

It can be clean.

It can be beneficial For everyone.

You have a seat. I'm Gonna get my book.
