Ah, this is gonna be a good one.
I can feel it.
- Eh, I'd feel a hell of a lot better if we had a warrant.
- When we get some dope, we'll get a warrant.
You see boy, that's the difference between you and me.
I have ears on the street.
And I'm gonna be a Lieutenant
while you're still pounding the pavement.
- That's funny, because I always thought
you'd be a Lieutenant
because you had your nose halfway up the Captain's ass.
- Shut up, Finney.
- Yes, Sir!
- Finney, you head out this way, Bodie,
you take the right side.

- What's your problem, Normad?
You almost got Huck killed.
- So what?
You know, if that guy dies
we're doing the whole world a favor.
♪ Means love and despair
- You just made a big mistake. - Not a problem.
- Officer Normad,
tell us in your own words what you observed
in the behavior of these two officers
that led you to believe they were involved
in drug-related activities?
- Well, sir, they, um,
they started coming late for their shifts.
Some of the officers covered for them.
But then I noticed something strange.
They um, their eyes were weird, like someone
who uses drugs, dilated.
And then they started slurring their speech.
Did you report this conduct to anyone?
- I did not, sir.
I thought I might just do a little investigating on my own.
I wanna make it clear at this hearing though, sir,
that I was hoping that all my suspicions were unfounded.
Anyway, sir, since their shift was beginning
as mine was ending,
I took over and started trailing them on my own time,
obviously off the clock.
And what else did you observe, officer?
- Well, I tailed 'em for a couple of clays
and they went into a donut shop.
Well, there's nothing really unusual about that, sir.
A lot of guys go into donut shops.
Go on.
- Well, they pulled into this,
what I would call,
what I would call a panderer's vehicle.
You know, sir, it was very long and low,
had a myriad of fancy paint, very very shiny.
The driver, he got out of this vehicle
and approached Bodie and Finney's car.
Specifically, Normad,
who did he approach?
- Well, Bodie was in the driver's seat
and he started talking to him,
but then he began talking to both of 'em
and they talked back with him.
- You believe this shit?
- You see, I recognized this suspect
because I had busted him a couple years earlier.
I busted him on a corner dealin' dope.
However it seems that he's moved up
in the world, doesn't it,
with a pimp car like that?
- Can the opinions.
Stick to factual observations.
-A|| right, sir.
Well I was close enough to observe Finney
give the suspect a sum of money,
and in return, he received from the suspect-
some little bags with white powder in it.
And then a larger bag with a leafy substance.
- Excuse me, this is a lie.
- That'|| be enough, Officer Finney.
I will not tolerate outbursts.
- That son of a bitch is lying, do you understand me?
- Sit down!
Or I will have you removed from this hearing!
- You're not going to tolerate outbursts?
How about tolerating the goddamn justice system?
Sit down, Finney
or I will have you removed from this hearing!
- Chill out, Huck.
We'll get our chance at that maniac.
- You want me to sit?
- Go on.
- Well, I heard them laughing, sir,
and I took my surveillance binoculars
and I observed Officer Finney strip off
the back cover of a cardboard matchbook.
He then rolled it up so that it resembled a small straw,
and he took it,
and he put one end in his left nostril,
and the other end in the white powder, and he.
Sniffed, sir.
-A|| right, this is crazy.
Hmm?
You son of a bitch, you crazy motherfucker.
C'mon.
You want some of me?
Come on, take it all, get your ass out of the chair.
I'll kick your ass.
Take it easy, boy.
Take it easy there, pal, take it easy.
- I'm fine, I'm fine.
But you're not.
You laugh all you want, you son of a bitch.
What, are you dancing with me?
- Bye bye, Finney.
- Look at this, Ricky Ricky.
You're getting really good at this.
I think this is where you want to be.
- 'Cause I'm a total professional!
- Yeah, really?
Interesting concept.
Ouch.
- Crazy son of a bitch!
Have a beer.
- Absolutely.
Son of a bitch.
- So, are we working tomorrow night?
-|am.
- What are you doing?
- A prom.
- Prom?
Teenagers?
- That's what it says.
That's what she wrote down, yeah.
Prom.
- I'm telling ya, you know what,
this lady, she's giving you more jobs than she's giving me.
- That's 'cause I'm the number one employee.
- Rick, there are two employees,
I happen to be one of 'em, okay?
And the only reason why she's doing that is
because you're gonna make a husband to her daughter.
- Maybe you forgot, we broke up.
"We?"
What, do you have a frog in your pocket?
- Well, let's see.
- She left your ass, man, she dumped you.
- You know how to hurt a guy.
- Open the door man!
Open a window!
- Oh god, whoo!
- Have a drink!
Fucked.
Whoo!
- Hey, I need you guys to chill out a little bit.
We're gonna get chauffeured down to the police station.
We pay you to drive, man.
Why don't you just drive?
- Yeah, yeah, and drive this, butthole.
Whoo!
- I'd rather choose my own clothes, if you don't mind.
' Go, go!
Beavis, Beavis!
What, you don't recognize me in my tux?
Hey, you recognize this, Beavis?
- Man, if he recognizes that there's something really wrong
with you, dude.
- You're bad, man, you're bad.
- I need a piss stop, guys.
- Yeah, me too.
Let's go.
- Driver!
We need a piss stop, pull aside.
- That's right, let's make it a foursome!
- Not a problem.

How was the ride?
- Ah, those crazy kids.

They're getting back together.
What are you doing?
Come on.
It's cowboy night, better get dressed.
-Ah, I'm not too sure about that.
- No, no, no.
Get sure, get dressed, get going.

- We're dancing?
- We are dancing.
- We're dancing, we're really dancing?
- Not with each other. - Oh.
- We are dancing. - Okay.
- Cindy, I have been so worried.
I'm so glad you're home.
- I'm okay, mom.
- Do you need any money?

- I'm staying with Cherry for now.
- Hey!
Look who's here!
- That you, Cindy?
- Hey, Huck. - Howdy doody!
- Hey!
- Oh, well, Cherry, can I do you a drink of some sort?
- Sure.
- What are you drinkin', buddy?
- Uh, I'll have a beer, buddy.
- Beer, buddy? - Beer, buddy.
- Uh, well, I'll be back in a bit.
I've got a lot of things going on tonight.
- All right.
Hi.
- Hello, Rick.
- You must've left town for a while,
your mother says she hadn't seen you in months.
- I had to get out.
- I know the feeling.
- Look, Rick.
I don't know what it is we have to talk about.
Nothing's changed since I left.
- Some things have.
- Yeah.
Like what?
- Like I quit the force.
- You quit?
- Quit, got fired.
What's the difference?
You should've stuck around.
- I wish I could have.
I worried about you so much.
Just didn't know if they'd call me one night, and,
I couldn't take the strain.
- Doesn't matter now. - One beer.
- Gah.
- Seriously think you'll need one of these.
- A boilermaker thing, huh?
- Yes sir.
Here you go, have a seat, Cherry.
So I'd like to propose a toast.
- To friendship!
- Ow! - Hey Rick,
get up off that leather-covered carcass of yours
and get up here.
We're gonna do your favorite song.
- Good idea!
Good thinking!
Come on, go up there and sing.
- Yeah!
Go on, Rick.
- Come on Rick, sing us a song!
- What are you gonna sing?
- Oh please, Rick?
- You twisted my arm.
You twisted my arm, okay.
I'll do it.
- All right!
- Well.

- You're full of shit.
And this is not an apartment, it's a public place, and I did
not come here to get grossed out.
- Get over it, Laura.
- Coming through, excuse me.
Two more.

- Here you go.
- I need to report public nudity.
I'm at Laney's Bar on Cuango West, and there are women
taking off all of their clothes!
It's disgusting!
- I talked to him.
We take her.
- What about Roy Rogers over there?
- We fuck him up.
Out of my way, asshole.
- I don't think so.
- I've got business with the bitch.
- She's with me.
- Ready to get hurt?
- Not a problem.
- Get the fuck out of the way.

Okay, buddy, that's enough!
That's it!
You're goin' downtown.
- Oh fuck you!
- You're not taking him anywhere.
Fuck downtown!
- He was just trying to help me,
these guys were trying to kidnap me.
Well then they're all going down, lady.
Let's go!
- What do we do now?
- We'll have to bail them out.
- Good evening. - How you doing?
- I'm here to bail out Henry Finney.
- Okay, I'll see what I can do.
Fill these out.
- Will do. - Freddy Motion,
bail bondsman.
My friends call me "Mo."
How you folks doing tonight?
- There's a lot of things I'd rather be doing.
How are you doin'?
- Couldn't be better, couldn't be better.
Doin' just what I like to do.
I get off helping out nice people like you.
Tell me, what time did our boy get busted?
- About midnight.
- Midnight?
Whoa!
He's been in this shithole for five hours.
We'd better get him out
before they make him prom queen, huh?
Let's see, what's his name?
- Henry Finney.
- Henry Finney, Henry Finney.
Finney?
They call him Huck?
- Yeah!
You know Huck?
- Yeah, I met that son of a bitch when he was a cop.
How's he doing?
Outside of tonight, I mean.
I heard he's been a few cards short of a deck for months.
- He's going through some growing pains, you might say.
- We all gotta go through those changes.
But man, last I saw him he was a wild man.
He shouldn't need to get any wilder.
- Eh, his wife's putting him through some real hard times.
- See what those women'|| do to ya?
Hmm?
Present company excepted, ma'am, of course.
- You'll have to try a lot harder than that to offend me.
- All right.
Well let's see, let's get down to some business here.
Let's see.
I believe somebody's got a little something for me?
Deed, maybe?
- I got the deed for you right here.
- That's wonderful.
We'll get some numbers off of this.
Fill in the blanks, and we'll get down to it.
Let's see.
All right, back to the lucky homeowners.
- Thank you. - Thank you, ma'am.
Let's see, all right,
lemme take care of some business over here,
and we'll get this show on the road.
All right?
Your ass is mine.
- Not a problem.
- God, I hope Huck's still alive.
-So do I.
- Everything's taken care of.
He'll be released to you shortly.
You tell Huck I said stay away
from those bad women, all right?
You folks take care of yourselves.
- Thanks. - You got it, Mo.
Sign right here, ma'am.
- Well, well, well.
Howdy Goody, mm irumes.
Ma'am.
You know, I just want to say one thing,
from a personal observation, about the accommodations here.
I dunno, they suck.
Just get out of here.
- See ya real soon.
On the street hopefully, huh?
- Here's a quarter, buy yourself a personality.
Let's go home.
- What a way to spend a work night!
- You know, I've been dumped quite a few times.
I'm really happy to see ya.
- How are you? - Hey, Bennie!
- Good to see you!
I haven't seen you for so long.
- I've been fine, how have you been, Bennie?
Wonderful, fantastic.
Lady's lovely.
Do you have a new joke, senor?
- You know I always got a new joke for you, Bennie.
So, I got a physician joke for ya.
This very attractive young lady goes to the doctor
for a checkup.
The doctor says "Hey, you gotta disrobe."
She says "I'm very shy,
can you turn the lights off?"
He says "Okay."
He turns the lights off, she takes her clothes off,
and she says,
"Doctor, where should I put them?"
He says "Right over here on top of mine."
That one was good.
- It's quite a profession.
I got another one for you, Bennie.
Another doctor joke.
Pick on doctor day.
This guy with a duck on his head, he goes
to the doctor, the doctor says, "Can I help you?"
The duck says, "Yeah, get this guy off my ass."
That one was good, too.
You always have a good joke.
- You just appreciate me.
I'll prepare your favorite dish.
- Before you do, Bennie, would you join us?
I wanna toast to you, for what to us is a very,
very special occasion.
Thank you so much.
- And to the best food in town!
Thank you.
Do you remember
the wonderful taste, and affordable touch.
- Oh, how could we forget?
- I remember falling asleep in the 503 section one time.
Excuse me, I will see how the chef's doing.
- Sounds good.
He hasn't changed much, has he?
- To us.
♪ Hello, my name is Tamara
IAnd the reason I've got this camera
♪ ls if you really love her
♪ You'll want a picture of her
- Sounds good.
Shoot this.
Tamara, you've got quite a pair of lungs,
is this the only place you sing?
No, I sing every weeknight at Cafe Cargo,
you should come by sometime.
- Sounds good, maybe we'll give that a try.
- Thank you.
- Looks just like us.
Cindy, your eyes, they're incredible.
They're still the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen.
- Well, you don't take such a bad picture yourself.
- Well, that's true.
Thanks, and see you again soon.
- Thank you, too.
- I never thought I'd be sitting across the table
from you again.
It's good to be with you.
- Yeah, it is good to be with me, isn't it?
- God!
You haven't changed a bit.
- Pleasure's all mine.
I missed you, you know?
- Yeah, it's been a tough year.
Sure put me through some changes.
- You have no idea.
- I have some idea.
- No, I don't think you do.
- Well, maybe I don't.
- When I left you, I didn't know what to do.
I felt lost.
Started hanging out with a different crowd, you know?
Strangers who I thought were my friends.
Everybody started doing drugs, and I did some myself.
Listen, about the other night.
Those guys in the bar?
I do know them.
They're members of a cult.
Devil worshipers.
The crowd I got into, they started getting involved
in a coven, and,
I just kinda fell into it.
I started attending these meetings.
The last meeting I went to-
- Go with Satan.
- We love you, Satan.
- Satan lives.
We love you, Satan.
- Throughout the ages,
Satan has guided us,
in his own divine way.
We love you, Satan!
- He's led us, he's led us,
he's protected us.
We love you, Satan.
- And what did he ask?
He asks only that we live in communion with him.
We love you, Satan.
- And that we honor him, remember.
We love you, Satan.
- My friends, we are here today to be in communion
with our leader, Satan.
We love you, Satan!
And to honor him.
We love you, Satan!
- We are here to celebrate
the omnipotence
of our leader, Satan.
We love you, Satan!
- Our leader has decreed that from our midst
a chosen one shall come
and share each anniversary.
"No!"
Stop!
You can't go through with this.
Don't!
Stop.
You can't go through with this.
No, please!
Shut up, bitch.
- Oh my God.
I knew there was something wrong
with this bitch the first time I saw her.
Yeah, you were right.
- No more noise out of you.
You'll be serving our master, whether you like it or not.
Don't move.
- Could we continue?
Chosen one, it is with deep devotion
that we usher you to your father.
This chosen one shall become this child.
Forever.
Satan lives.
- To your knees.
Satan, we beg and beseech you
to look after this one who we now send to you.
Satan lives!
Hail Satan as we deliver this chosen lamb.
Satan, we beg, we beseech you
to look after this one that we deliver to you.
And as we send him to you,
we hope you will realize how deeply faithful we are
in our pitiful earthly form.
Satan lives.
- Newborn child,
it is with such great devotion
that I usher you to the father.
If only knew the greatness of this moment
and the honor bestowed upon you,
you would be as overwhelmed as we are.
Hail Satan.
- This is thy time of destiny.
And this is the time of deliverance.
This is the time of deliverance.
Hail, Satan.
This is the time of deliverance.
Hail, Satan.
- I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I mean at first it was more like a social group, you know?
Some drugs, parties.
But before I knew it, it became real serious.
- Go on.
- They, um,
they sacrificed a human baby.
I tried to stop it but I couldn't.
So I just left Hollywood the next day.
I didn't know what to do.
I went down to Santa Barbara and I stayed with Dad
for a couple of months.
I heard through some friends of mine that the coven members
are trying to find me, that they want to kill me,
'cause I know too much.
The other night, in the bar with you,
I'm scared.
- Don't be scared, Cindy, don't be scared.
We'll work through this.
We'll work through it.
We'll work through this.
- Thanks.
God, I feel better just talking about it.
- See?
- I haven't had anybody.
- I told you.
I told you everything's gonna be just fine.
Things are gonna work out fine.
- Oh God, look at me.
I'm a mess.
I shouldn't put you through all this.
I'm sorry.
- Don't worry about it.
- God, how have you been, anyway?
Still trying to be an actor?
- Well, I audition every once in a while.
- Still use that same monologue?
- Sure do.
Wanna hear it?
Once?
Just once, for old time's sake?
- I'd love to.
- To be, or not to be, that is the question.
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
and by opposing end them?
To die, to sleep, no more.
And by a sleep to say we end
the heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
that flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
devoutly to be wished.
And thus the conscience does make cowards of us all.
And thus the native hue of resolution is sicklied o'er
by the pale cast of thought,
and enterprises of great pitch and moment
with this regard their currents turn awry
and lose the name of action.
- Bravo!
- Thank you very much.

Me and Cindy are gettin' back together again.
Gonna spend a couple weeks at Duke's, and then get a place
of our own.
- My great friend, what you're gonna do
is just leave me hanging out there?
Okay.
You know I can't afford to pay the rent.
- Hey, well you surprise me with the attitude.
But maybe you can get another roommate.
Ed's looking for a place.

Ha!
Don't worry, I'll.
I'll be fine.
Hey!
Dickhead in the purple,
you wanna hear something that Hamlet wrote?
- Not really.
How about you?
You wanna hear something Hamlet wrote?
Who's Hamlet?
- Who's Hamlet?
Who gives a shit?
Okay?
My buddy here knows how to talk about Hamlet.
He knows lines.
You want to hear it or not?
- Not right now, maybe later.
- Oh later?
You know what this tells me about you, Mr. Fringe?
Fringe Fuck Benefit?
It tells me that you got no class, okay?
You got no class.
Look at me, look at me.
You got no goddamn class.
Okay?
My buddy here can speak Hamlet!
All right?
You wanna hear it or not?
- Huck, nobody wants to hear Hamlet's speech,
and Shakespeare wrote it.
- Y'know what?
I really don't give a fuck who wrote it.
Okay?
You got it?
Barkeep, I would like another drink, okay?
But at this time, at this point in place.
I'd like something with some class.
So give me a classy drink.
'Cause this man has no class!
- How about a bullet?
That's what you're drinking.
It's been classy enough for you since-
- Great!
Then give me a bullet, fine, man.
Give me a bullet.
I'm sick of this shit.
How about you?
Would you like a bullet?
A little class?
Huh?
Give my friend here a bottle of class, too.
What's, a bullet.
- No, count me out.
I gotta leave after this beer- - No, no, no.
No, you are not leaving, okay?
You're not going to be able to pussy here, all right?
Look at me.
You are sticking it out with me.
You know why?
Because, excuse me, yo, pink!
We're celebrating tonight, okay?
We're celebrating,
we're celebrating, the loss of my house, thank you.
Thank you, okay?
And while we're at it, we are celebrating that my wife,
oh,
is banging all my friends.
- Chill out, Huck.
- Cut to the truth, Rick.
You nailed her, didn't ya?
I mean, you made it with her didn't ya?
- I never spent five minutes with your wife,
and you know it.
- Lies, man, I'll tell ya what.
Y'know what?
You nailed her, you made it with her,
and you're lying to me right now.
- C'mon, c'mon.
- No, I'm not coming on, man, she had her ass up in the air
for everybody else, why not for you?
Huh, baby boy?
Hmm?
- Hey, man!
Chill the hell Out!
I'm your best friend.
I never touched Alex, ever.
- Qkay, okay.
Number one, you never say "Alex" again.
Number two, I've forgotten.
Number three, number three, I'd like to kill you,
I'd like to kill this asshole, and that asshole
with the cowboy hat and his fringe.
And number four, I think I need a ride home.
- What you need is some fresh air.
Walk.
- I just remembered.
Number two, number two, just remembered,
I'm really fucked.
I'm totally fucked.
Electricity, huh?
Gas?
Credit card?
Landlord?
I dunno, how do I look?
What are you doing here?
-Ah, I came to get my alimony.
- Oh.
- I need it, Huck.
- I uh, um, It's just, I don't have it.
And Rick moved out, and Jesus Christ,
I don't have enough money for the rent, Alex.
- You're just gonna have to borrow it then.
- Oh come on, you know my friends.
Our friends?
- So?
- Look, nobody's going to lend me money.
- Then find it somewhere.
Alex, when we made our deal in court,
it was based on my job, huh?
I don't have a job right now.
- I don't care, Huck.
You owe it to me.
- I owe it to you?
- Yes.
- Hang on.
I owe it, huh?
- Yes, you owe it.
- Why all of a sudden, you come here for alimony?
Why all of a sudden do you need money?
What about this fat guy you're driving around
in a Mercedes Benz with?
What about him?
- Anybody I would be seen with would be better than you.
You're just a bum cop.
- You know, you wouldn't be saying that
when the money was coming in, was rolling in,
and you're going shopping at the Beverly Center, right?
And you're buying perfume and clothes, anything you wanted.
- A lady's gotta dress.
- Yeah, a lady's gotta dress, huh?
Well, a lady's gotta fucking dress for who?
You dressed for my friends, my cop buddies,
and everybody you're fucking on the side.
- But you're gonna pay me what the court ordered you
to pay me.
- What the court ordered you?
Or me?
The court ordered what, that scumbag Normad, huh?
What, were you banging him too?
Huh?
Aw, Christ.
Alex-
you were, weren't you?
Look at me.
- Let's just say he was one of the cops
that had a lot more going on than you.
That's why he's a judge now.
Alex, he's a judge
that sells drugs.
Just like he did when he was a cop.
- Just stop.
Stop with the accusations.
There is no way you're gonna get out of paying me.
Put the phone down.
Put the goddamn phone down.
- Come quick!
Come to 223 Bronson quick!
Hurry, he's trying to kill me!
You son of a bitch.
You've been gettin' out of paying me for months now.
But you're not going to get out of paying me anymore.
The court says you're gonna pay, and I'm gonna make you pay.
I'm gonna put you in a cage where you belong!
You remember these?
You didn't know how to treat them, either!
- Goddamn you!
- What seems to be the problem now?
- It's him!
I just came here to collect
some back alimony this guy owes me, and he attacked me!
I think he tried to kill me!
- Yeah look, officer, this is my house.
No, look at me!
It's my house, it isn't hers, okay?
I didn't touch her, she ripped her blouse off
and this bitch is nuts.
He's a liar!
- Oh shut the fuck up.
Not to mention the poorest excuse for a human
being I've ever known!
- Shut up!
Yeah, right.
- Have you been drinking, sir?
- Oh great, let's,
let's blame it on alcohol.
Okay yeah, I've had a couple of beers man,
I'm sittin' on the couch, yes I had a couple of beers.
Understand?
What you're not getting is this bitch here
is punishing me
because I didn't pay her alimony on time, okay?
You ever been married, motherfucker?
- Oh he's a bum, he tried to kill me!
- Sir, if you didn't do anything to her,
you can explain that to the judge.
You'll get your day in court.
Right now you're coming with us.
- Really?
Listen.
I used to be a cop, all right?
And I'm not going anywhere with you pigs.
- You're coming with us!
You're just making it harder on yourself!
You're going in one way or the other.
- See what I told you, he's violent!
You know what?
It's true, you never know a woman
until you meet her in court.
- If your friends were dynamite,
you wouldn't have to blow your nose!
God damn fascists!
Son of a bitches!
- My ex-husband has really been
making some loud accusations about you.
Being a crook and a dope dealer!
- How did you know?
I just came from his house.
-Ah.
You've been discussing me?
- No, your name just came up in the conversation.
- Didn't I tell you never to discuss me with anyone?
- Yes, but I didn't, I wasn't.
Don't do that.
- Get ready.
I mean get ready now.
But I love you.
- I said get ready, goddammit!
Do it!
Move!
- Why?
I love you.
- I love you too, baby.
Lie down.
- You know when I said never,
when I say never,
I mean never.
- You're hurting me.
I Will.
Stop hurting me.
- I can't right you.
You don't even seem to understand.
I'm a judge
and have to be very careful.
- I do understand.
I love you.
- I love you too, sweetheart.
Come here.
This court is now in session.
Will Henry Finney please come forward?
- If it pleases the court, I am John Drew, assistant D.A.
representing the state.
- Very well, Mr. Drew.
- It is the state's position
that Mr. Finney's bail be revoked.
- On what do you base this contention, Mr. Drew?
- Well, Mr. Finney has exhibited extremely erratic conduct.
A complaint in this matter arises from an incident
in which he assaulted a defenseless young woman,
and we believe that he is a threat to society.
What's going on here?
- You have not been recognized by this court,
will you remain silent, please?
- For Christ's sake, who the hell you think you are?
Huh?
I mean to me, you're just some asshole in a black dress.
Y'know what?
I suggest pearls and pantyhose, then you'd be perfect.
- No bail!
I want this man removed from my court.
All bail revoked, and I am also going
to add the charge of contempt of my court.
Remove him.
- You were smuggling drugs when you were a cop,
and now you're throwing people in jail.
And I'm in contempt?
Okay, good.
You're in contempt here.
- Get him outta here, bailiff!
- It's bullshit, Normad can't hear this case.
- What are we gonna do about it?
- Listen you polyester puppet.
- Slow down, what are you talking about?
- Huck and Normad were on the police force together.
Normad never liked Huck.
He can't be judge, it's illegal.
- All right, I'll look into the matter.
- Well you see that you do
or I'll go over your head.
- Hey, how's it going, man?
Hey, what are you doin', man?
Hey!
Guard, guard.
- Hello, Mr. Finney.
I'm Sister Mary Rebecca.
I came by to see if there's anything
you'd like to talk about.
The medics said you seem very distressed.
- Wow.
- Did something recently happen, to cause your anxiety?
- Well, Sister.
You name it, and it's recently happened.
- It couldn't be that bad.
There's no life circumstance
that our savior can't help you with.
- Okay, so could you ask our savior
to help me out with the rent?
And child support, and utilities,
and while you're at it,
like ask about reinstating me into my new job,
as a policeman, okay?
Mr. Finney, you have to understand
that our savior often acts in mysterious ways.
-Ah.
Come here.
So does the D.A.
And the collection agency.
Huh?
- It would help, Huck, if you realize
that you've just encountered some temporary obstacles.
But if you'd have faith in our savior,
he'd help you overcome them.
Remember, it's really not so painful
to be without shoes, when others are without feet.
Huck, I've got to tend to some other patients now.
- I bet you do.
- Please give some thought to our conversation,
and I'll look in on you later.
- Not only am I going to give it some thought,
I'm going to think about the savior, okay?
Very pretty for a nun.
Candystriper.
That's what I'd really like, y'know?
Like a sponge bath, maybe-
- Huckster!
- Oh Shit.
- Hey, buddy.
How you doing?
How are ya?
- I'm doing really good.
- You're gonna be fine, Huck.
- I'm going to be fine.
- I heard you did that bleach thing.
- What?
You did that bleach thing.
- I did.
Yeah.
Hey, well on another level,
we petitioned the court.
We got rid of Normad.
- Good.
- You got nothing to worry about now.
Just lay here and heal a little bit.
We're going up to Santa Barbara,
get the rest of Cindy's clothes,
and on the way back we'll check in on ya, hope you're gone.
Come and see us.
- I understand.
Lemme ask you something very important.
Is this half full, or half empty?
- Looks kind of dirty. - It's always half full.
- Looks like it's got ashes in it.
- Is it half full, or half empty?
- Half full, man.
- Oh no, it's water.
- Sure.
Fish swim in it.
- Here, boy!
Come on, boy.
Hello, boy.
Good PUPPY-
- Hi, dad.
I told you never to bring your friends home.
- Shouldn't be a problem, sir.
I'm just here to help her move her clothes.
- I won't have your kind in my home.
Get off my property-
Get the behind thee, Satan!
- Dad.
Can't I just come in and get my clothes?
- You wait out here, we'll get your clothes.
- Guy's not too sociable, is he?
- He's rigid.
He hasn't accepted me, or any friends that I've had since I
was in grade school.
- Well maybe it's not such a good idea you brought me along.
- Don't worry about it, Rick.
He'd act the same way if I were alone.
- Well I guess you'd know, but sometimes
it's better for families
when they solve their problems alone.
- But we haven't been a real family since I can remember.
Our problems are irreconcilable.
- I don't believe that.
"Dad!"
Dad, don't be so rude!
You'll get nowhere with me, young lady,
by taking that attitude.
- She's always had a bad attitude, Bill.
- Wait a minute.
Why don't you both calm down,
and try to work out your problems?
- Who are you?
Another drug-contaminated devil worshiper from Hollywood?
- I'm a friend of Cindy's, and that ought
to be good enough for you.
I don't do drugs, or worship the devil.
- This is Rick, he was on the police force for seven years,
and now he drives a limousine.
- Why's he an ex-policeman?
He get thrown off for drugs?
Satan worshiping?
- Come on, Bill.
You're not going to get anywhere with her,
she'll never change.
- You're a disgrace.
- You're wrong about that.
You never gave me a chance.
I raised you right.
I taught you a good moral life,
a religious life.
- If it wasn't for the way you tried to program me
and turn me into a biblical robot,
then maybe I wouldn't have rebelled.
The way you brought me up, it's like even I'm not
totally anti-social, living in a cave,
far away from life's so-called evil.
Watch your tongue, young lady.
All you had to do was live a rightful life,
was to mind what I taught you.
- Well, maybe if you hadn't always acted
like you were so perfect,
my life would've been righter and fuller.
I was brought up the same way I raised you.
I never had the despicable problems you had.
- Because you were raised in different times, dad.
- I raised you to be strong like that,
you chose to be weak in the face of temptation.
- Don't waste your time with trying to help her,
everything you say just goes in one ear and out the other.
- You are just as inflexible as he is.
Don't be attacking your mother.
- She's not my mother!
My mother was wasting away from living with you,
and all your uncompromising ideas.
That's why she left you!
- That's enough out of you, Cynthia.
If you keep living like the gutter snipe
you've turned into, you're going to be found dead
on the side of the road someday.

- Why don't I take you and get you married this weekend?
- I do, I do.
- You know, you know.
Number one
is that you never get down on anything unless
you know something about it, like from here.
And number two?
Number two.
It's the little things in life
that makes people's roads easy.
Dig?
Come on, come here, come here!
Doesn't that make sense?
It's the little things.
It's like, "Hi, hello, how are you?"
You're still looking nice."
Give 'em little compliments, you know what I'm saying?
- Hey, what are you doin'?
- Rick, Rick!
Whoa!
What am I doing?
Uh, reciting the uh,
noble, the noble noises of Huckism, man!
Y'know, I mean it's built
on this new religion I've developed about Huckleberry Finn?
No, seriously!
This is a great theology.
Take off your clothes, leave your clothes on.
Get in the pool, man, look!
This what's happening.
- You're getting a little hardcore for me, Huck boy.
- No no no no!
No, man, I'm serious when I say this, okay?
Huckleberry Finn, what'd he do, huh?
He had the courage, man, to go upriver, not downriver!
He didn't go downriver, he went upriver!
Who'd he go upriver with?
He went upriver with a slave named Jim!
Well what the hell are we, huh?
We're all god damned slaves, aren't we?
We're slaves!
I mean, Huckleberry Finn is beyond Moses
leading the Israeli-ites y'know,
out of wherever they came from
into the promised land.
I'm talking Huckleberry Finn.
- Really?
Well, I just came over to tell ya
Cindy and I are gettin' married, as you know,
no one else, you gotta be my best man.
We're getting married Sunday, be there.
- Sunday's a good day.
Sunday's very good.
- Our Heavenly Father, we are here today
to join this lovely couple in holy matrimony.
They love each other very much.
No man can put asunder the matrimonial bond.
Cindy, repeat after me.
I, Cynthia Westport, do take Rick Bodie
to be my lawfully wedded husband.
- I, Cynthia Westport, take you, Rick Bodie
to be my lawfully wedded husband.
Rick, repeat after me.
I, Rick Bodie, with this ring, take Cynthia Westport
to be my lawfully wedded wife.
- I, Rick Bodie, with this ring, take you, Cynthia Westport
to be my lawfully wedded wife.
- I now pronounce you husband and wife.
- I love you. - I love you.
I'm so happy for you.
- You're a very lucky man.
- Wouldn't have been much without you here.
So glad you could make it.
- Now I'm gonna show you what kind girl you really married.

- Snake, Scar, you come to my neighborhood.
You come to my home.
You must be respectful.
Even substantial.
You see, I can not afford
to have the neighbors be suspicious of me
because of the guests I have to my home.
The street rabble.
All right, that's taken care of.
Make sure you do what I said.
Now listen, let's turn to something more pleasant.
Please give me a rundown on last week's transactions.
Well, we had a really good week.
- What's a really good week?
Well, we did a quarter million in coke,
a half million in speed, and 100 Gs in mainline.
- No, that's not a really good week.
That's a great week!
- There's one thing more you should know.
We spotted that girl Cindy.
You know the one who screwed up the service
when we sacrificed that kid?
She flaked out and started screaming?
She's hanging around with some cowboy
who wears snakeskin boots and thinks he's a badass.
I want him, too!
- I don't give a damn what you want!
And I don't give a damn about some son of a bitch
in snakeskin boots and a cowboy hat!
- Well, we got a-
- I wanna know when you're gonna dust that broad!
- We got a line on her!
I'll take care of her real soon.
We've been watching her mother,
and she either goes to the mother,
or the mother comes to her.
Either way, we whack her.
- That's nice.
That's great.
I want you to do this as quickly as you possibly can.
And be very sure that she's eliminated
before the next coven meeting.
Oh yes, and one more thing.
Scar?
Don't get caught.
Here, drink up.
Take care of her.
Drink it!
- Hi, could we have a pitcher of beer,
and four shots of bourbon.
You got it.
- Y'know, this chick is kind of cute.
Maybe we could combine a little business with pleasure,
if y'know what I mean.
- Yeah, buddy.
- Whatever, brother.
I am with you.
Say, how come this place is so dead tonight?
- Everyone attended a wedding.
So she canceled the band for tonight.
- Oh yeah?
Who's getting hitched?
- The owner's daughter.
- Would it be Cindy?
I said, sweetheart, would it be Cindy
that was getting married?
I don't know.
- Are we gonna talk about it, or are we gonna do it?
- You know, I think you do know.
Maybe you forgot?
And we can help you to remember.
- Ah, Shit!
Bitch!
- You're making the wrong kind of noises, sweet pea!
- Here it comes.
- You're looking quite lovely this morning, Mrs. Bodie.
- Honey, I'm gonna go with you this morning
to the club and hang out with mom while you're working.
- She'd probably like that.
- Who's that cop, Rick?
- That's Normad.
- That's him!
That's the high priest of the coven.
I thought that name sounded familiar.
He's the one who murdered the baby.
- What?
Really?
We're going to the police.
- I'm scared, Rick.
- We'll get that slime before he kills anyone else.
Don't worry.
- Yeah, that's it.
Gonna put that bitch in a box.
Get it?
Bitch in a box?
We got her!
C'mon, let's get out of here.
- This world will never be the same.
We've lost the beautiful, lively presence of Cynthia.
Now we must put her soul to rest, and say goodbye.
But not without respect, and admiration,
for all the contributions Cynthia has made to our lives.
- I told her something like this was going to happen.
The wages of sin.
- Goodbye.
- Well, partner, I got something for ya,
lemme come by a little later, all right?
- I'll get even for you, Cindy.
I promise I'll get even.
- You know, I'm sittin' there, man, I'm sittin' there-
I'm doin' my thing, y'know, and I'm thinking,
all of a sudden, it hits me.
It's, Rick!
My friend needs a friend.
He needs a friend.
So,
you stay with him.
Okay so, Rick?
Rick?
Hit the bag, man.
But here, okay?
He saved my fucking life!
- What do you want?
- They're here.
- I figured they would be.
Okay, what do you think of the glasses?
- I like them.
- I knew you would.
Good boy.
Well, friend, it's been some time.
- Yes it has been a while.
Looking good, old man.
- Well thank you.
Y'know, you must always remember
that you only get old if you're lucky.
Well, I see you still have your impeccable taste
for lovely females.
- Thank you.
And who might you be?
- I'm Gloria, nice to meet you.
- It's nice to meet you, Gloria.
You'll excuse me.
Why don't you come inside
and let me offer you and your lovely companion something
to drink?
What would you like?
- That would be great, I'd-
- No, gracias.
Let's just attend to business.
- Come in, sit down, and let's do it.
- Hey there, double-ugly.
- Looks good.
- Yes, I'm always thought that green
was a beautiful color.
Let's see your stuff.
Not too shabby.
Very mellow.
You know, if the rest of your product is as good
as this, we're gonna be in business for a long time.
You speak English in my house.
- Somebody just whacked one of the inside guards.
- Whaddya mean somebody just whack...
What are you trying to do, backdoor on me, you son of bitch?
- No, no! - Bye-bye, bitch!
- Surprise!
You didn't expect to see me here, did you?
The high and mighty judge, caught with his pants down.
Wow, you got enough dope there to do 30 years, Normad!
- Surprise!
Right.
Surprise.
Y'know Rick, I've wanted to kill you personally.
But as you can see, I'm,
Busy.
Kill him.
- Ah Shit!
I'm hit.
Shit.
- Hey, are you all right?
- Ow, don't touch it!
- Shit, do that tourniquet thing.
I'll be back.
-Aw, shit, I'm bleeding, ah!
God damn!
- Satan, I want to thank you
for all the bounty you've bestowed upon me today.
And I hope that I've pleased you in every way.
- It's me again.
Bodie, you loser.
- You're the kind of puke that makes the world decay.
- Bodie, within this case I have enough contraband
to make us both wealthy men.
- I don't sell my soul to the devil.
- I bet it's why no one has ever accused you
of being bright.
And why you're always worn the mantle of a beat cop.
- You killed the only woman I ever loved.
And it's payback time!
- She was a full-blown bitch.
Son of a-
I'll see you in hell, you son of a bitch.
Not a problem.
Ah!
Ooh!
Jesus!
Oh!

- Rick, you remember me?
- Sure do.
You left quite an impression on my buddy Huck.
- I hope I helped him to find the right path.
- Well let's just say you started him in a new direction.
- Rick, I told Huck that God works in mysterious ways.
And there is something you should know.
- Yeah, what's that, sister?
- Rather than a long explanation, could you please
give me a ride back to the hospital?
- Well I could, but I'd like
to spend a quiet moment with Cindy.
Maybe you could say a prayer?
- I will, and I know it's difficult,
but please give me a ride back to the hospital first.
- Okay-
Well, okay, sister.
I guess I can come back a little later
and spend some time with Cindy.
- Thank you so much, Rick.
There's someone here who wants to see you.
- Cindy!
- Rick!
Oh, Rick!
I begged them to tell you where I was.
They wouldn't let me contact you.
I'm so happy to see you.
-A|| right, I can't believe you're alive!
- I started coming to in the ambulance.
They told me later that since those people
were trying to kill me that a burial service had to be held.
I begged them to tell you the truth, honey.
But they just wouldn't.
- Your life was in danger.
You don't have to worry anymore.
Normad and all his friends have gone to their idol.
They can never harm you again.
- I love you.
