We stationed shooters

a half-mile in every direction.

- Any word on the monster truck?

- About half an hour.

Did you get any description

of the perpetrator?

Average height, average build,

red nose and blue hair.

Thanks.

- Thank you for using A T& T.

- Your bike's out here. So's your bus.

- You owe me two more hostages.

- They're coming.

Tell me when my monster truck gets here.

- You ready, doll?

- All set.

Relax. I'm right behind you.

Come on, already.

Son of a b*tch! Bastard!

- Are you people all right?

- Let's keep moving.

He's peeking at us through the curtains.

The man is an animal.

Ripping out phones, urinating on desks.

You see what he did

to Miss Cochran's shirt?

There's a scratch here.

It's not deep, but it's there.

It's okay.

Did he hurt anybody else?

Is the strain beginning to show on him?

"If I could sleep 1 o days in a rice paddy,

I could certainly last in this lousy bank."

This is what the animal said to us.

He says to Miss Cochran here:

"Baby, up your butt with a coconut."

I think he was prepared to do it,

except I saw no coconut.

He had no coconut to my knowledge.

No coconut, huh?

What about dynamite?

Did you see any?

Any? It's everywhere.

It's on him. It's on us.

Hostages strapped to tables as shields.

The man is an animal.

He's sick.

You okay, mister?

Officer Martin, take these two

to the doctor, just as a precaution.

Yes, sir.

- The key is, he's an animal.

- That much is clear, sir.

Oh, so I'm repeating myself. I suppose you

want to throw me back in there with him.

It's 4:
48.

If he hasn't called back by 5,

we storm the bank.

Damn.

This is Rotzinger.

Can you give me a little more time?

I promise I won't hurt anybody.

I'll call you right back. I promise.

Now, where were we?

Oh, Phyllis! Oh, Phyllis!

Grimm.

Guys.

Phyllis, you were so great back there.

I felt like you were protecting me for real.

I couldn't tell if you were pretending.

You were good.

This is true. Let's see Miss Meryl Streep

try to vomit on cue, huh?

Fantastic.

Loomis, could we have

two seconds alone?

- Sure, Grimm.

- Thanks.

I can't believe we did it.

Do you remember the night

you proposed?

- Proposed?

- Yeah.

Oh, you mean the night the pipes froze

and the heat went out?

And as we lay there freezing...

...waiting to be discovered dead,

you gave me that look.

That look a woman

gives her man that says:

"I blame you for everything."

Yeah, that look.

I said, "Phyllis, before we lose our

self-respect, let's make a commitment.

Let's not be the Bickersons,

like every other couple on the IRT.

I know a way.

Phyllis, will you rob a bank with me?"

I will, Grimm. I will.

Grimm...

...I have to tell you something.
