Slow up, fellas. An iguana can lose

his tail and grow it back.

He regenerates.

That's how he escapes his predator.

It's true. It's a defense mechanism.

I read it in a magazine.

So him shooting Corky's tail off

and us shooting him in the ass...

...it really ain't the same thing.

- No, the punishment don't fit the crime.

And besides,

it was an accident, right?

Right.

- So we're cool.

- We're always cool, breeze.

Lower your pieces.

Good morning, Bay City, you are tuned

in to KBA Y, 93.3 on your dial.

This next tune is number eight on

the charts and number one in our hearts.

Hey, Hutch!

Oh, there he is.

What's going on, Willis?

Same old, same old.

So how's life at the clink

treating you?

It's not that great.

I got some new tight-ass partner

that they stuck me with and then...

I don't know. Hopefully...

It's probably not gonna last that long.

- So got that $20 you owe me?

- 20?

Willis, I thought it was 5.

Hutch, that was my grandmother's

birthday money.

Come on, give me a break, okay?

I just told you I got a new partner.

Stuff isn't great for me down at the

precinct. You know, back off for a second.

- Can I get it to you on Thursday?

- Fine, but no later than Thursday.

No later than Thursday.

Word of honor.

Cute little kid.

It's 10:
00. You're late.

I've been here since 8.

Well, don't sweat it, because crime called

in sick. It's gonna get a late start too.

"Crime called in sick," I like that.

- So, what's on the agenda today?

- Same as every day.

- Finding bad guys, bringing them down.

- Great. Take my car, right there.

- That?

- Yeah.

- What the hell is that?

- It's like a camper/pickup truck.

- What's the matter?

- We're undercover.

- That thing sticks out like a sore thumb.

- You think so?

You're in for a treat.

It's not that bad.

Man, your stock just went up

in my book, my friend.

Pop the hood. Let's see

what you got under...

Hotshot, what do you think you're doing?

This is a Ford Gran Torino, okay?

It's not some crappy camper/apartment.

There are rules.

- Okay, okay.

- You do not bang on the hood.

You never, under any circumstances, drive.

You will not put your coffee mug

on the roof. Okay?

No coffee in the car whatsoever. Coffee

on the ground, you get in the car, we go.

Attention, all units.

We've got a 61-40 at Bay City Marina.

Oh, no.

This is Zebra 3.

We're on it. Hang on.

You gotta be kidding me. No way.

- What?

- Floater.

Nothing harder to solve than a floater.

No prints, body's usually bloated...

...it's next to impossible.

All right, I say we push it out...

...hope the current

takes it to the next precinct.

- What?

- You'll thank me for this one.

- Hey, seriously, stop it.
