- In me.

Now, listen.

You two people

are unhappy together, right?

- That's right.

- Right.

What would make you happy?

Would you be happy

if you could get a divorce?

- Happier than anything in the world.

- All right. I'll divorce you.

Put your hand on my badge.

Come on, both of you.

Raise your hand.

By the powers vested in me in

and through the state of California...

...and the city of Los Angeles as well,

I do now pronounce you divorced.

- Oh, thank you.

- Yeah.

- Congratulations.

- Thank you. Oh, thank you.

Oh, hey, you're a wonderful boy.

Bye.

And you're wonderful too Whitey.

Bye.

- Bye. Bless you, Whitey.

- Bye.

- Screw you, Orville.

- There you go all over again.

Five-45, a family dispute,

First and Soto.

Eleven-eight-45.

Eleven-eight-45, phone the station.

Twelve-0-20, roger.

Thirteen-eight-99, clear.

Thirteen-eight-27.

Thirteen-eight-27, go to the station.

Thirteen-0-30, roger.

That guy's got a brown shirt, Andy.

The lady said red.

Hold it right there.

I wanna talk to you.

- Who, me?

- Yeah, you.

- Identification.

- What for?

I stopped you for a reason.

Now, break out that ID, because

we ain't got no time for shackling.

Okay, I ain't got nothing to hide.

It's just that police is always

rousting me every time I goes outside.

Hell, man, this ain't nothing.

Got something with your thumbprint,

picture, driver's license?

What I need a driver's license for?

I ain't driving.

Haven't I seen you?

What have you been busted for?

Forgery, flimflam?

No, man. I gambled a little bit.

Now, I ain't no criminal now, no jive.

Yeah, you're jiving.

Your heart is hammering.

What's your real name?

Gandy. Woodrow Gandy.

Just like it say on that card.

Step over to the car.

Somebody wants to say hello.

Oh, man, this is a roust.

This is a humbug and a roust.

Wake her up.

Ma'am? Wake up, ma'am.

That's him. That's the one

got me in all of this trouble...

...telling me how easy

it was to make $ 10.

Hey, listen, Durand.

Do you mind if I ask you something?

Why did you come

with the department?

Eleven grand a year

and a chance to get out of East L.A.

- Get to some place like the Westside?

- That's right.

- Like Hollywood?

- Right.

Where you get all those actresses

and honey-blonds?

Right.

And here

they put you back in East L.A.

Right.

Thanks.

- Hey, Andy.

- What's up?

One thing I don't understand.

The guy we picked up...

...he wasn't wearing a red shirt.

Yeah, I felt a little bad about that.

Look at it this way. Maybe you'll catch

somebody with a red shirt tomorrow.

Come on. Come on, really.

Well, it wasn't green either,

it was a color that could be called red.

Especially if you're fuzzy drunk
