The Enforcer

Where are you headed, little lady?

Nowhere with you, numb-nuts. Buzz off!

See you Thursday, you gorgeous thing.

You picked a beautiful day to hitchhike.

Well, I've got a nice little VW back

at Stenson's Beach with a cracked block.

You guys wouldn't be going up

to Mill Valley, would you?

Andy, aren't we going up to Mill Valley?

I got a couple of bottles of ice-cold beer

up there, if you're interested.

You son of a b*tch.

Okay, pile in.

How long you been in the Western Gas

and Electric Company business?

I can't remember how long I've been in it.

How long have I been in it?

Turn in, right here.

Climb up this road here.

Yeah, I'll be right with you.

Better hang a left here, Harry.

There's a jam up on Bay.

What's with the citizen?

Police officer, what's the problem?

Thank God. He's inside.

Come on, it's a heart attack.

Wait here.

Make some room, please.

Please, move aside.

Please, move aside. This is an emergency.

Excuse us. Would you please move over.

Would you please give us room.

He's a police officer.

- Police? Where's the ambulance?

- This poor man's had a heart attack.

I think he's still breathing, though.

Come on, get up.

- Get up. Come on.

- What are you doing?

I say.

- Party's over.

- Thanks a lot, Harry.

What are you squawking about?

You got the free meal, didn't you?

Yeah, but I always enjoy the ride

in the ambulance.

Get out of here.

All units, be advised that this is a 406.

Harry, it's an "all units."

Marvelous.

My old lady's gonna kill me.

She's doing a nine-church novena tonight

and I told her I'd be home early for supper.

Suspects are armed.

Code 33. Code 33.

Inspector 71 responding to your 406.

What's going on?

A couple of bastards

held up that liquor store.

One of our guys stumbled in on it

and they shot him up.

They grabbed four hostages.

They said they'll start shooting them

one by one unless we give them a car.

Then what are you waiting on?

Lieutenant Brannigan of Robbery.

He said to stall them until he gets here.

- God, don't let him kill me.

- We want the goddamn car, right now.

All right. But you don't get anything

till I come in and talk.

All right, you bastard,

lay your piece on the hood of that car.

What about me? I'm your partner.

I may have to move fast and I don't need

too much linguini to hold me back.

You got a lot of class, Harry.

You get cute,

I blow this nice lady all over you. Let's go.

On the floor, motherf***er.

For God's sakes, mister, do like he says!

This is my best sports jacket.

I said, get your ass on the floor,

you dirty son of a b*tch!

Spread eagle. Move it!

Get down there.

San Francisco's finest.

Mitch.

Roll him over.

He's clean.

Here's the story.

First, we want all the pigs out of here.

Second, we want a car...

...with a police radio.

Deliver it right out there in front.

We're taking two hostages:

Both the women.

If you don't do exactly what I tell you,

we blow their f***ing heads off!

- You got the picture?

- Yeah.

What are you waiting for?

Run, you jive-ass bastard.

- What do they want?

- They want a car.

What are you going to do?

Give them one.

You son of a b*tch!

Tell me, what makes a man

crazy enough to join the cops?

If you find out, you let me know, huh?

$14,379.

- How can that be?

- You want an itemized account?

You took out two front doors,

one front window, 12 feet of counter.

Plus damages to the stock.

Plus one city vehicle totaled.

As well as three hostages in the hospital,

all of whom will probably sue the city.

- For what?

- Excessive use of force.

For your information, Callahan...

...the minority community has just about

had it with this kind of police work.

By the "minority community,"

you're talking about the hoods?

It so happens that they are

American citizens, too.

What about the lady with the shotgun

in her ear?

I'm not going to debate this with you.

I've been on the phone

to the Mayor twice this morning.

He went right through the ceiling over this.

Did you tell him about the meeting?

- What meeting?

- The meeting right here, two months ago...

...when you said high priority was:

"Run these hoods out of here."

I never said to use violence.

What should I do,

yell "trick-or-treat" at them?

Come on, Harry.

I expect you,

and every other man on this force...

...to behave with restraint

or turn in his resignation.

You're on notice, Callahan.

This little show of yours yesterday

is exactly the kind of thing...

...this department

is no longer prepared to tolerate!

Is that clear?

Yes, sir.

- If that's all, Captain, I've got work to do.

- But not in Homicide.

What?

You've been transferred to Personnel.

To Personnel?

That's for a**holes.

I was in Personnel for 10 years.

Yeah.

That's it.

You report tomorrow to the Oral

Examining Board. 9:00, on the dot.

No, you haven't got the picture.

I'm the robber, you're the cop.

Now, I'm in a market, see?

And you've just caught me, dead bang.

A 211 in the act.

But I'm coming out, and I've got a hostage.

A kid with a gun at his head.

There's no way you're gonna take me alive.

You've 10 seconds to make up your mind,

"Here I come."

What are you gonna do?

One...

...two, three...

- You're under arrest.

...four, five...

- Do something!

...six, seven...

- How tall is he?

Don't just stand there, goddamn it,

do something!

Bang, you're dead.
