Kuffs Page #3

They told me

I'd find you here.

My name

is Sam Jones.

Hi.

I know this might not

be the right time...

and please don't think

badly of me...

but I understand your brother

left you his district.

Yeah, he did.

I want you to consider

selling it to me.

Since you're not in the field

of law enforcement,

this could be a great opportunity

for both of us...

you to make some money,

and me,

I get to put a good, strong man

in your brother's position.

I'll give you

$100,000 now...

and $1,000 a month

for the next two years.

That's it. That's my spiel.

Yeah, that, uh,

sounds wonderful,...

but could you give me

some time to think it over?

I wouldn't expect anything less.

Here's my card.

It has my home number

on there. Call me anytime.

I'll be expecting your call.

Sorry about your brother.

Have a nice day.

You sure have to make

serious choices in life, don't you?

Patrol Special.

Hey, Harriet.

Nikki, Mr. Brown

is on line two.

I'm busy.

Not bad.

You're three weeks

late again, Mr. Brown.

Hiya, kid. Just the man

I wanted to see.

Can I buy you a free cup of coffee?

Show me the way, Bill.

I'm not quite sure exactly

what's going on here.

We should start talking about

how much you want for the business.

I have a little saved up.

I can get some from...

my mother.

I'm sure the bank

would lend me the rest.

Well, uh, that's very nice

of you, Bill, but, uh,...

believe it or not, I've decided

to take the job myself.

Come again?

I'm gonna be your boss, Bill.

You're gonna what, kid?

He's a kid. Even if he

becomes a patrol special,...

he doesn't have the experience

to run a district.

I do not want to hear "kid"

from this guy ever again.

I am not a kid!

Calm down.

Kid, kid, kid.

Would you tell him that, please?

He's not a kid.

Brad said I could go to the academy during the day

and patrol with somebody at night.

That's what I'm gonna do.

I spoke to the lawyer from the D.A.'s office.

He said the district's mine.

I'm taking it.

Has he ever been convicted

of a felony? I'll bet he has.

Shut up, Bill!

Have you?

No.

Did you graduate high school?

Yes.

You have to go through the academy.

I know, I know.

He's gonna have to get his hair cut,

put on a uniform and get rid of that attitude!

I'm only gonna stick around until

I clean up the neighborhood.

Look, Kuffs...

That's the least I can do for my brother.

Oh, God damn it.

Why me? I...

Bill, this is his district.

There's nothing I can do about that.

You think you've won?

Think again!

Look, I understand

how you feel.

Will you understand that

I don't want you here either?

I heard about

Sam Jones's offer.

If you don't want to sell to Bill, fine.
