A guy with no arms and legs, who...
A man whose bright and blazing tail...
A regular Library of Congress.
A shot a day, hey.
A wife divorce a man at the first sign of trouble ain't much of a wife.
About a man and the many Hearts he broke
Action?
After your senseless murder of my wife.
Against his bodyguard's greed.
Ah, don't worry.
Ah, I know. It's the best seat in the house.
Ain't you got a nickname or something?
ALBERT: Excuse me, sir.
ALBERT: Where is he?
Albert...
All right, okay. Hey, you, old man.
All right.
All right. He's gonna kill Foss.
All right. He's gonna kill Foss.
All right. That'll hold him.
All that's left are old friends.
Allow me, allow me to lay my healing hand upon you! Yes!
Almost two years.
Amen.
An AWA official who's been president...
And all them highfalutin ambitions you had.
And an all around deviant named Enzo Catelli.
And don't ever underestimate their strength.
And Grantham joined the debris in the Detroit River. Ha!
And he definitely said your name.
And he will be dressed exactly like you at the time.
And his secretary, Miss Massetori, seems to have died before the fire started.
And how would you describe those two years?
And I couldn't stand for that.
And I find it wherever and whenever I can.
And I was struck by just how apt that name is.
And Jackson's their mutant offspring.
And like Halley's comet, he's the kind of man...
And like someone's trying to start a bonfire in the back of my head.
And love me with your
And murder is a tool.
And now they're both dead. Is that clear enough?
And should be driven as fast as possible at all times.
And that I'd be going places. Hmm.
And the AWA is more than just a union. It is a power block.
And the case will be neatly closed.
And the interesting thing is, your getaway car will crash and burn.
And the untimely departure of the first Mrs. Dellaplane as well.
And then we gonna deprive you of your...
And they don't laugh during the punch line all the time. Thank you.
And they don't laugh during the punch line all the time. Thank you.
And Tony alive. For now.
And we gonna tap dance on your lips.
And you also said that I could cut a record...
And you don't know me.
And you don't know why and you don't have any evidence.
And you said a man from Motown was gonna come hear me sing.
And you watch the bouncing ball.
And you'll be identified from your dental records.
And, uh, it was all that. JACKSON: All right, look.
ANNOUNCER (ON TV): The Halley, from Dellaplane.
Any reason why I shouldn't?
Are we gonna play "You Know How"? Because I got a good one.
Are you all right?
Are you ever gonna tell her about me?
Are you okay?
ARMBRUSTER: Check him out.
ARMBRUSTER: Come in! Somebody had to carry you.
ARMBRUSTER: Interesting. It was unusual...
ARMBRUSTER: What?
Art.
As a young boy growing up...
Ask questions, find out who's planning what power plays. That kind of thing.
At least I would, if your husband didn't have my legs broken.
At NASA created him to walk on the moon without a space suit.
Aw, come on, Liz.
Baby, undress
Baby, undress
Baby, undress me
Baby, undress me
Back there you seemed like a fine dancer.
Bad career move.
BARTENDER: Here you are, girls. Two beers.
Be a man! Come and get me!
Because it's hot dog time.
BOB: What the hell's going on?
Bob.
BOTH: but the reflex never dies!
Boy, I'll tell you, these things never work.
Boy, you're a heartbreaker
Boy, you're a heartbreaker
But alas, motives are not my department.
But also your gun permit and marriage, and brought this department...
But I assured him that you couldn't have been involved.
But I had forgotten that this is my wife's Parcheesi night.
But I heard him say the name Moretti.
But it goes against all my Muslim beliefs.
But it's only midnight and the night's barely started.
But it's the footwork that fooled him.
But my cars are just a hobby.
But not until I fuck her one last time.
But the coroner didn't think he was slipping her the old protein pickup.
But you don't make it big and remained loved by everyone.
But, uh, your demotion made that unnecessary.
Call me. You know where you can reach me.
Calls himself Mr. Quick, room 303.
Can I have you any sooner?
Can the shit, Kornblau.
Can you kiss me?
Can you kiss me?
CARTIER: We're having some problems with O'Rooney...
Catelli lived in Rome, and as a defense against kidnapping attempts...
Chill out.
Christ, I thought I dreamed.
Come on, asshole!
Come on, come on. Let's go.
Come on, you got the right Jackson.
Come on!
Come on! Come on and get me!
Come on.
Come on.
Come on. There's gotta be more!
Conceited, two faced, backstabbing asshole.
Controlling the union won't help your company that much.
Couldn't he have met us on the first floor?
Cut him.
Damn, you a big john.
Damn.
Damn.
DEALER: Your ass is mine.
Dee, thanks a lot.
Delivery.
Dellaplane did it! Dellaplane did it!
Dellaplane financed Catelli's demise.
Dellaplane sent me.
Dellaplane shot his wife and put the body at my place.
Dellaplane, he was...
DELLAPLANE: Hmm.
DELLAPLANE: I love you.
DELLAPLANE: I would imagine you have a thousand questions.
DELLAPLANE: Mm hm. SYDNEY: Mm hm.
Dellaplane's former partner was a multimillionaire...
Dellaplane's gonna kill you too.
Detective Kotterwell, please keep a leash on your vocabulary.
Did a woman come by for me? Twenty nine, a blond?
Did I say all that?
Did you take my wallet?
Did you think they'd let us out on a song and dance?
Didn't, um, Caulfield versus North Carolina demonstrate...
Dinner.
Do I look like I can't make up my mind? Who?
Do I look like your secretary?
Do you know how long I've had this car?
Do you know how much a prime conditioned...
Do you know how much work I've put into it?
Do you wrong, tell you lies
Don't bogard me, lightfoot. There's nothing we'd like better...
Don't diss me. I'm gonna break it down to you.
Don't screw around with me.
Don't shoot me. That's too easy.
Don't tell me you're afraid of Dellaplane.
Due to their almost demonic ability...
Easy on the door!
Easy, baby.
Easy, kid.
Either way, consider us joined at the hip till I close this case.
Enough is enough!
Especially the defiantly...
Even better.
Everybody's a comedian.
Except this weekend. He's giving a party for that man we had lunch with.
Excuse me, man. Sorry, man, sorry.
Excuse me.
Extemporizing.
Eye to eye you are no match
Far away eyes
Far away eyes
Far away eyes
Far away eyes
Far away eyes
Far away eyes
File that, will you?
Fine looking woman like me, and you don't touch me?
Fine, thank you.
Fine. Good night.
For an autopsy.
For Dellaplane's car, the Halley.
For instance, in 1976...
For love, honey, I'll undo
For me, Peter. Please.
For Mr. Stringer and Miss Massetori to be working so late...
For Peter Dellaplane is himself a comet.
For the time being, you can consider the Hotel Hoover your home.
For what?
Formed an elite group of bodyguards...
FOSS: All right. But if I see a cake with 63 candles...
FRANK: Ah. Yeah, okay.
Frankly, if I had a Harvard law degree I never would've become a policeman.
FRED (ON TV): I dare you to bite it.
From the same high school. We were on the track team together.
Fuck a duck.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
Get him as far away from Dellaplane as possible.
Get out of the way!
Get out of the way!
Get out of the way.
Get the chopper. I'll meet you there.
Get up off of that stump, baby
Get your ass out of here.
Girls, he'll break your heart
Give me a break. I need a fix. Give me a few bucks and drop me off.
Give me two good reasons why I'd say all those things.
Gnawed his own hand off like a trapped skunk...
Go on upstairs. Gotta talk to the Kid.
Go to the police station. I have to catch a cab.
Going someplace?
Good day.
Good enough. It helps pay my way through medical school.
Good evening, sir.
Good night.
Good question.
Got a pusher in the building?
Got a real fight fan there.
Gotta remind me? Ain't thought about it in 10 minutes.
Grab him!
Grantham dead...
Grantham is believed to have died in the explosion...
Guess I wasn't able to make you change your mind after all.
Has madam arrived yet?
Has made a substantial recovery and will continue...
He ain't giving up no air. I think we have to jam him up his shit.
He came by right after I overheard the conversation.
He didn't make the name for himself he thought he would.
He gets so riled up...
He had a spare.
He hated his guts, in fact.
He may seem greedy and arrogant...
He might even have deployed them against you...
He planned...
He said Jackson had gotten to him, but he couldn't tell him anything.
He says he wants to see you.
He says it's about tomorrow night.
He used to work for your husband, but now he's with the AWA.
He was a high strung kid.
He was an informant named Papa Doc. He worked here.
He was talking about that man Moretti.
He worked for Stringer. They knew your plans for the AWA...
He wouldn't know suicide if it crawled up his ass and died there.
He's a friend of yours, huh?
He's adjusting.
He's dead.
He's got a plate in his head.
He's gotta be kidding.
He's gotta be used to that by now.
He's more oral than Oral Roberts.
He's not the man you think you know.
He's over there.
He's up there.
Heh, I cut a fine figure on the dance floor.
Heh, not the last time I checked.
Heh, romantic?
Heh, shit, I ain't seen none of that tonight.
Heh, the rabbi says to the Pope...
Heh, yeah, right.
Heh. Dancing.
Heh. Open it up.
Heh. They called it love.
Hell, no. I've been shot.
Hello, my friend.
Hello.
Her name is Sydney Ash and she works at this club.
Here's a little hint:
Here's your .357. It's cleaned and ported.
Hey, come on. Later, okay? Later.
Hey, how you doing man?
Hey, man, no, man.
Hey, no lights.
Hey, what happened? Who did this?
Hey, what's going on?
Hey, you! I'm talking to you!
Hey. You're Kid Sable, aren't you?
High school track star, Harvard law degree...
His balls is in a jar at Snooker's Pool Hall.
His books were open to the public.
His determined attempts to devise a power base in the AWA.
His kind of trouble is no trouble at all.
His son's a sexual psychopath. With problems like that, I'd get neutered.
His testicles climbed back up into his belly. Wouldn't come out.
Hmm, some cherry pie, ice cream...
Hmm?
Ho ho, so happens I do.
Hold on a second. Dale!
Honey, romance is where you find it.
Hoover? Nice name, heh.
Hope I live to keep it that way.
Hot.
Hot.
Hotter.
Hotter.
How about an ex junkie, huh?
How bad is it?
How can I talk to Oliver O'Rooney?
How do you feel, baby
How do you know each other?
How do you like your ribs?
How much did you lose on that game?
How much do you charge for a hand job?
How much further?
How they were having trouble with him, but they'd have him in shape by Sunday.
How was that?
How, huh? Send him an engraved invitation?
Huh?
Huh?
I assure my esteemed colleague...
I bet I can make you change your mind.
I came in through the back door.
I can feel it! I can feel it!
I could recommend a good bathhouse if you like. Heh.
I could've saved you time. The man is dead.
I did.
I didn't know you listed photography among your interests.
I do all the forgetting I need.
I do. Unh!
I don't believe you.
I don't dig this talk radio crap. Ain't you got any rap channels?
I don't even know your name. What's your name?
I don't hate you.
I don't know. I'm a pretty fine singer.
I don't sound that bad, do I?
I don't think so.
I don't understand a word of it, do you?
I expected a standing ovation.
I feel like my teeth are hollow and my gums are made of dry rubber.
I give myself an amen. Amen! Ha, ha.
I got a meeting in 14 minutes. I'm on the phone to Italy.
I got roaches that tell better jokes than you...
I got some news, pal. Some interesting stuff.
I got the place tighter than the Pope's poop chute.
I got your fix.
I hadn't seen much of him since he started to work for the union.
I have to admit, it's a lot of fun once in a while.
I hear all it takes is the right opening.
I heard him on the phone today.
I helped him to relocate. How's he doing?
I hope the fire marshal isn't too alarmed by my blazing tail.
I hope this teaches you, crime doesn't pay.
I just hope Sergeant Jackson will understand.
I just might take it off real slow
I just need to be sure your Action Jackson days are far behind you.
I just put my body on the top
I just put my body on the top
I just showed him a picture of your girlfriend.
I just... I have to hear you say it.
I knew that you couldn't be.
I know a woman who might help, but I gotta get her away from her husband.
I know how you feel about Peter. But you don't know him the way I do.
I know the duties I assign you are trivial, but they're crucial...
I know who it's from, Frank.
I know you killed Tony! Come on, chicken shit!
I know you take this matter very personally...
I know you're a very proud man. And you have much to be proud of.
I know. They almost had a little company.
I met him after his first wife died and his son went to prison.
I need a room on an unoccupied floor. She's got a sweet tooth.
I need you to represent the department at the Detroit Businessman League's...
I never lose
I promise you that I'm on to something.
I run a respectable hotel.
I said all right! I'll help you! I'll do it!
I said you look fine. We're not going back for your purse.
I saved your life back there.
I saw him packing a .32. Somebody planted that 9mm on him.
I saw your wife in the paper last week.
I say that sounds fine. I believe we can meet that.
I say we can meet that. Let's go, please.
I swear to you, I had nothing to do with anybody's murder.
I take it your not one of Mr. Dellaplane's friends.
I think he is a greedy...
I think I felt that way once.
I think the whole experience changed him.
I think you're not so different from Peter.
I thought we were attached at the hip, huh?
I thought you'd never ask.
I wanna get to Dellaplane. You can help.
I want a full report on my desk first thing in the morning.
I want the paramedics and a meat wagon down here right away.
I want you to die.
I want you to meet my most lovely bride...
I want you to meet our birthday boy...
I warned you about the language.
I was merely extemporizing, heh.
I was sent to bring you down, brother!
I was sent to bust your asses and wipe these streets clean!
I was thinking about it.
I was worried about you, honey.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
I'd just rather a place a little more romantic.
I'd like to speak to Miss Ash.
I'll be out the door faster than shit through Secretariat.
I'll give you a rush.
I'll give you three guesses, and the first two...
I'll have Einstein bring some breakfast first thing in the morning.
I'm a fool, baby
I'm a kingmaker rather than a king.
I'm afraid to ask.
I'm always delighted to help a detective.
I'm back.
I'm gonna cut you deep, fucker.
I'm gonna kick your heart and shove it down your throat, you cocksucking...
I'm gonna kick your heart and shove it down your throat, you cocksucking...
I'm impressed. It takes a lot to get through old Edd.
I'm looking for a man named Oliver O'Rooney.
I'm looking for Papa Doc. Wonder if he still works here.
I'm not asking you to go there to brownnose Peter Dellaplane.
I'm not queer.
I'm not sure I'm getting through to you.
I'm not that nice.
I'm so in love with you
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'll see to it.
I'm sure he would be delighted to hear what I have planned.
I'm sure your convenience is one of his main concerns.
I'm surprised he don't wear a shirt that says "I steal shit."
I've always gotta see them like this.
I've been looking for Papa Doc.
If Armbruster fucked up as bad as you did, they probably would.
If I got the wrong Jackson, please tell me.
If I was to hit you again...
If it weren't for me, you'd be splattered all over your apartment.
If the bullet hadn't gotten him, he would've dropped dead within the week.
If you keep me up on the one
If you keep me up on the one
If you wanna be alone, I'll wait in the car.
If you'll hold on a moment, I can lead you to him.
If you're saying we make a team, I beg to differ.
Immaculate.
In fact, I could've sworn they hated each other.
In maintaining the public's goodwill.
In my father's house, I spent a lot of time in the library.
In my years on the force, I have never met a more dedicated policeman.
In this business, I need a bedside manner like I need another nose.
Indefatigable Action Jackson.
Is Dellaplane's mistress. She's a singer.
Is he giving you trouble?
Is he gonna be there or keep me waiting as usual?
Is he here?
Is it okay if we stop for a fix. Just a little one?
Is my son.
Is power.
Is supposed to be a girl's best friend.
Is that all you have to say?
Is that good enough for you?
Is the happiest evening of my life.
Is the one man army really asking for help?
It costs more than your diamond brooch.
It doesn't matter. What could he tell him? He had no proof.
It is likely that they intended to denounce Dellaplane and defy...
It must be my charm and my good looks.
It sure the hell isn't your driving.
It takes sharp work to track a man screaming, "I did it! I did it!"
It was a regular fuck a rama at my place last night.
It was open.
It wouldn't be worth the effort, would it?
It'd be best to let it percolate a little.
It'll be about a couple of weeks, I think.
It'll just take a second, honey...
It's "Action
It's a shame the subject wasn't more cooperative.
It's as if the assailant was invisible. There wasn't enough left of Stringer...
It's been a pleasure to see you, lieutenant.
It's C.O.D.
It's her loss.
It's his balls.
It's his car.
It's Jericho.
It's just, heh... I can't figure that out.
It's like the Norman case. There wasn't enough left to put on a pizza.
It's my game if you wanna play
It's probably my date.
It's sergeant now, isn't it?
It's the clothes.
It's the Martinizing that does it.
It's very unbecoming.
Jackson got to Moretti before we did.
Jackson is so vicious, we don't even let him have a gun.
Jackson, don't do it.
Jackson, have a seat.
Jackson, what are you doing?
Jackson, what are you doing? Just shoot the son of a bitch.
Jackson, what's on the agenda today?
JACKSON: Dellaplane.
JACKSON: He should be in the Red Devil bar.
JACKSON: Hey, brother.
JACKSON: Hey, Tony?
JACKSON: Hold up. Hold up.
JACKSON: Shit.
JACKSON: Up here.
JACKSON: Watch your language in front of the lady.
JACKSON: Why do you wanna kill Foss?
JACKSON: You son of a bitch. Heh.
JACKSON: Your place.
Jackson!
Jackson!
Jackson! Jackson!
Jackson? No need to. He doesn't know enough...
Jackson. Jericho Jackson.
Jar.
Jericho? Heh.
Jesus Christ!
Jesus Christ.
Jesus, Tony. You don't look too good.
Jesus. You really think Action Jackson did it?
Joe Louis and Kid Sable.
Joey's Club Elite is proud to present...
Joey's Club Elite. All right?
Just because the man had a few family problems...
Just cool it.
Just the delivery of details.
Keep your dick on, kid. They're probably just cleaning out his cage.
KID: I recommend the crab cake.
KID: Oh, boy.
Kornblau, please. Put a sock in it, huh?
Kornblau, you ever have your head rammed up your ass?
KORNBLAU: I remember one kid got re educated so bad...
KORNBLAU: What's he think we're driving, an ice cream truck?
KORNBLAU: Whoa, whoa! LACK: Police!
Kotterwell says it's suicide.
KOTTERWELL: Jackson!
KOTTERWELL: Look, I want to put a lid on all this. No press!
LACK: Jackson, stay right there!
LACK: Jackson, stay right there!
LACK: Mm hm.
LACK: Stop the car!
LACK: There he goes.
LACK: They called it a medical miracle. Another kid, handcuffed to a chair.
LACK: What's your name?
Ladies and gentlemen, can I have your attention?
Ladies and gentlemen, our Man of the Year...
Ladies and gentlemen! Your attention, just for a moment.
Later!
Leads the way for the few with the courage to follow.
Leave me alone.
Lesson's over.
Let me in.
Let's get out of here.
Let's get out of here.
Let's hasten to your chariot.
Let's hope you never have to find out.
Let's see what Papa Doc can tell us about Dellaplane.
Lieutenant?
Like me to repeat anything?
Listen to him.
Little shit! I'm gonna break your legs!
Little shit! I'm gonna break your legs!
LIZ: Come on, can we finish this? It's getting late.
Look for a new star in the sky tonight.
Looking for me?
Looks like your friend fainted again.
MAN (OVER RADIO): Body's been identified as Patrice Dellaplane.
MAN 1 (ON TV): This has nothing to do with plumbing.
MAN 1: Hey! MAN 2: Hey, what are you doing?
MAN 1: What do you call a guy with no arms and legs, under a pile of leaves?
MAN 1: You better answer, man.
MAN 2 (ON TV): Well, of course it doesn't. Don't be ridiculous.
MAN 2: Russell.
MAN 2: You're gonna sing for us. But the question is...
Man of the Year fundraiser. I was scheduled to attend...
MAN: Ladies and gentlemen...
MAN: Wonder no more.
MAN: You did it again, Jackson.
Matt.
May I help you?
Maybe even turn the lights down low
Maybe now you'll live up to your name, huh?
Maybe this wasn't a good idea after all.
Maybe you'd like to try a foot job instead?
Maybe you'd like to try a foot job instead?
Mellow out.
Mind if I join you?
Mm hm.
Mm hm.
Mm, undeniably so.
More than life itself.
Moretti?
MORTY: Amphetamines, malnutrition, insomnia.
Mr. Gamble here will take care of that.
Mr. Peter Anthony Dellaplane.
Mrs. Dellaplane, I hope you'll forgive the intrusion.
My car. Come on.
My chariot awaits.
My first wife and my partner had to die because of financial interests.
My most precious wife.
My partner has sprained his wrist.
Nah. This boy would have to college for four years
No sign of Jackson.
No sign of smoke inhalation. Not even seared lungs.
No, I'm afraid not, sir.
No, liability applies only if the individual's acting on his own accord...
No, new sentence there.
No, no, no, no, no.
No, not at all.
No, not at all.
No, not really.
No, thank you. I can do it myself.
No, thank you. This part I can do on my own.
No, thanks.
No. Just against junkies.
Norman dead...
Norman was decapitated in an auto accident.
Not as a representative of the government.
Not Frank Stringer. Not Lionel Grantham...
Not many people cause him so much trouble and get away with it.
Not unless they changed the definition.
Not very much, just the end of that table.
Now I got you!
Now where are we going?
Now you pissed me off.
Now, hurry up. We got some people to see.
O'ROONEY: Heh. I can't believe Dellaplane would be up this early.
O'ROONEY: Why the hell's he wanna meet me out here?
O'ROONEY: You're not Dellaplane.
Of course I am. That's why we're taking this. Get in!
Of course I trust you.
Of course I'm his sister.
Of course, to implement that kind of power, one must have a tool.
Of Local 132 for the last five years.
Oh, and please don't peel away too slowly because...
Oh, baby.
Oh, Frank.
Oh, he can usually be found late at night at the Red Devil.
Oh, heh, check this out.
Oh, shit!
Oh, shit!
Oh, so you need me?
Oh, very good. You write your own material?
Oh, what? You got something against violence?
Oh, yeah. Now I remember.
Oh, you don't wanna pull that shit on Action Jackson.
Oh, you sure are some kind of a detective.
Oh.
Oh. But I feel like shit.
Oh. Good.
Oh. This is one dead piece of shit car builder. Heh.
Okay, yeah.
Okay. Ten bucks.
Okay. We will continue to improve with the months ahead. Yours truly, Frank...
Okay. You're the romantic here.
On the corner of Custer and Saint Antoine. Ask for Dee.
One day, he may have to join them.
One more chance. Wanna fuck?
One not that much smaller than the Library of Congress.
One of these days, you're gonna really piss me off.
One person you might try...
Only what I read in the paper.
Open the door, Jackson. Believe me, they all look the same.
Open up my door
Or a woman?
Or any friend of Jericho Jackson's.
Or Wolverine or something.
Others say his mother was molested by Bigfoot.
Ow! Ha, ha.
Pal, you're trying to unload a whole field of fertilizer on me here.
Papa Doc was a very valuable source of information to us.
Paradise Valley has produced two great fighters:
Pardon me?
Party. Party for Raymond Foss.
Patrice Dellaplane.
Patrice, I would never do anything to harm you, baby.
Patrice, on the other hand, was becoming a problem.
Patrice.
Personally? Captain, the man cost me my stripes!
Peter Dellaplane is Man of the Year, huh?
Peter Dellaplane.
Peter never mentioned them. He doesn't bring his work home with him.
Peter, I need to talk to you.
Peter, I'd like you to meet... I'm sorry, I don't know your name.
Peter, I'm scandalized. There was no one to park our car.
Peter, something's wrong.
Peter, what's going on?
Peter.
Play on this, baby
Please be careful...
Please don't hate me for it.
Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Louis.
Police emergency! We're taking your car!
Police...! Jackson! Stop!
Publicity we can do without.
Rat poison? Yuck, yuck, yuck.
Ray, I'm sorry. My manners are...
Raymond Foss! Ray, come on up here and say a few words.
Raymond Foss? Aren't he and your husband friends?
Raymond Foss.
Really, this evening...
Right.
Room 214. We call it the Presidential Suite.
Samuel Norman, the Auto Workers Alliance...
See, I knew you was a priest. Heh.
See, my real interest, sergeant...
See, you be a Charlie Irvine...
Seem to me like you're right.
Seem to me, nobody asked you.
Sergeant Jericho Jackson, 13th Precinct, City of Detroit.
Sergeant, how long has it been since you lost your lieutenant's stripes?
She didn't go by me.
She divorced me.
She felt my career was advancing in the wrong direction.
She left a note.
She was beginning to jeopardize my entire operation...
She will die of an overdose.
She's in the bedroom.
Shit!
Show him to his car.
Shower works sometimes. No roaches.
Sits on the wall?
So far we got zilch.
So how are you gonna kill Foss and get away with it? Hmm?
So I can take his place.
So please feel free to ask.
So, what have we got?
Soften him up with a right, knock him flat with a left out of nowhere.
Some action.
Some folks used to call me Action.
Some say he didn't even have a mother.
Somebody diced the guy.
Somebody give me an amen!
Someone should tell that man there's plenty of cake for everyone.
Something like "excitement"?
Son of a bitch. Shit.
Sorry, I meant to congratulate you on that collar you made.
Sorry, Jackson. You're just gonna have to make do.
Sorry, Sydney. You're just gonna have to make do.
SPEAKER: On my television I came across a commercial...
Spent a year in Bellevue. Got this delusion he's a holy messenger.
Still, I've got to make you mine
Stop that kid!
Stop the presses You did not hear it from this mouth.
Stop!
Stringer dead.
Stringer didn't trust him.
Stringer was defenestrated.
Stringer's death was neither tragic nor accidental.
Stupid son of a bitch!
Such as yourself, Albert.
Sure wasn't no woman that gave you that name.
Sure. Why not make Charlie Manson a high school counselor?
Surely you won't leave before you give me an amen?
Sweetheart, I'm not kidding. No. But this is kind of romantic now.
Sweetheart, let's share this moment together.
Sweetheart.
Sydney, I wanna introduce you to an old friend.
SYDNEY: Don't worry about it, okay? He's gonna be there.
SYDNEY: He probably don't want you smelling up his house.
SYDNEY: Hey, Jackson.
SYDNEY: I couldn't figure out what they were talking about...
SYDNEY: I take it you liked my act?
SYDNEY: Jackson!
SYDNEY: Jericho, what's going on? JACKSON: Unh.
SYDNEY: Jesus, man. This is getting to be real shit.
SYDNEY: Just shoot him.
SYDNEY: Knock yourself out, huh?
SYDNEY: Mm hm.
SYDNEY: Of course I understand.
SYDNEY: Ooh, a parking lot. Now this is real romantic.
Sydney?
Sydney?
Teach me.
Tell me where it hurts.
Tell you what to do. Go down to Dee Love's Barbershop...
Ten bucks? Is that all? Do they give you enough?
Than to take a Tom Slick like you and have a blanket party.
Thank you, I'll test it in the morning.
Thank you, Peter.
Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you very much. I think so too.
Thank you. Thank you.
Thanks a lot, I appreciate it.
Thanks.
Thanks.
That case not only cost you your lieutenant's stripes...
That liability applies to government as individuals, not as a unit?
That means I'd have to tip less.
That only leaves Sydney.
That since the death of our friend and coworker...
That some researchers...
That sort of thing happens all the time.
That's exactly what I was gonna say.
That's exactly what I was gonna say.
That's gotta be Oliver O'Rooney.
That's not a good answer.
That's right. Now what's happening tonight?
That's the rickety part, because I don't know.
That's the same for Norman and for Grantham. And because of that...
That's true, really. If cars were all I cared about...
That's very consoling. You got a great bedside manner.
That's why we don't answer the phone.
Thaw, get the gasoline. We're gonna have us a little barbecue.
The boy ain't driving with a full tank.
The car's ready.
The cops think I did it. Are you gonna help me or not?
The coroner's looking at what's left of Grantham.
The Dellaplanes are adept at dealing with obstacles.
The force may fade...
The fuck you are!
The Halley, from Dellaplane.
The Halley. The car of tomorrow can be yours today.
The Jackson I knew wasn't afraid of nothing.
The negative's quite poor, isn't it?
The public doesn't appreciate charges of police brutality, substantiated or not!
The quality of the print seems excellent.
The Sable Surprise.
The thing that breaks me up...
The walls have ears, and all of that.
The walls...
Their Man of the Year is Peter Dellaplane.
Then we'll see about getting those lieutenant's stripes back.
Then you're in for a big treat.
There ain't been any pussy at your pad since your mother helped you move in.
There. There's the hand that feeds you.
There's a nickname associated with it, isn't there?
There's a whole lot of things I do that I don't want to think about.
There's an old cliché that says: "True power rests behind the throne."
There's one thing that I wanna say
They bring in Jackson when they want to re educate some young ne'er do well.
They give me any smack, I'll be sure to save some for you.
They helped elect a peanut farmer to the highest office...
They ought to call your place "The House of Whacks."
They said Tony killed himself with a 9mm. Bullshit.
They said you hadn't come home yet.
They'd steal me if I wasn't nailed down.
They'll assume you're on a mission to kill me...
This car's my most prized possession...
This is a matter of life and death.
This is Action Jackson?
This is not good.
This is Sergeant Jericho Jackson, one of Detroit's finest.
This motherfucker's crazy, man.
This will be easier than I thought.
This...
Three!
To celebrate my birthday with me.
To reach the level of shit for brains.
To remain completely undetected.
TONY (ON MACHINE): Jericho, this is Tony. Pick up, man. You there? Pick up!
Tony, I'm sorry. I...
Tony.
Too bad about the game, huh?
Too bad you couldn't find a more suitable luncheon companion.
Trying out a new typewriter or maybe a dangerous Xerox assignment, huh?
Two hundred seventy pounds.
Two...
Uh huh.
Uh, "Enthusiasm"? "Esprit de corps"?
Uh, Albert. Albert Smith.
Uh, dry cleaning.
Uh, I look terrible.
Uh, nothing much. You might have to endure a little session with "Action" Jackson.
Um, but my makeup.
Undo me, baby, don't hold back My love is on the one
Undress your love Baby, take me higher
Uneventful.
Unfortunately, like so many libraries...
Unless I am deceived.
Unwind, darling, and drive me crazy Uh huh
Vinnie Weldon, remember him? What was it you did to him?
Wait a minute! Come here!
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute. You kidding?
Wait. Come on, think about it.
Waiting till we're married or something?
Wake up.
Wasn't that Jackson's car back there?
Wasn't that Jackson's car back there?
Wasn't the makeup you wanted, was it?
Watch me and we can have some fun
We all thought he'd make a name for himself.
We don't hear your name much anymore.
We gotta go back for my purse.
We have a government that's proven that cliche true, time and again.
We lost. Damn.
We met through my son.
We try this one more time, very slow.
We're going to a hotel.
We're miles above the rest.
Well, I'll be here if you need me.
Well, I've got the munchies like you wouldn't believe.
Well, mark it on your calendar. That day is coming.
Well, where is she?
Were they also responsible for the AWA killings?
What are you planning for the AWA?
What can I do for you?
What do you know about Frank Stringer or Lionel Grantham?
What do you think of our Man of the Year?
What do you think you know about me?
What do you want from me, Dellaplane?
What else is there?
What happened to Detroit's favorite son?
What he was trying to ask you is this:
What is it, a secret passage?
What makes you think I need a junkie like you?
What the hell happened to you? Wait.
What the hell have they done to my car?
What the...? Oh!
What would I ever do without you, huh?
What you doing with my brother? Playing doctor?
What?
What's a nice girl like you doing here?
What's Dellaplane got to do with me?
What's happening there?
What's wrong? Food not romantic enough for you?
When a man gets to be my age...
When he gets his balls cut off?
When I wanna rock
Where did he go?
Where do you think you're going?
Where have you been?
Where have you been? Come over as soon as you can.
Where is he?
Where is he?
Where the hell are we now?
Where the hell is he?
Where the hell is Jackson?
Where we gonna go now?
Where's Sydney?
Where's the bedroom?
Which he called "The Invisible Men"...
Which of us is business and which is pleasure, huh?
Who comes along only once in a lifetime.
Who resented his money, his power. Who was agreeing with him...
Who says I've gotten away with anything?
Whoo! If that's for me, don't answer it.
Why are we running? You're a cop, aren't you?
Why did you have to bring me?
Why do they call you Action...?
Why haven't you answered my question? Why are we running from the cops?
Why not have your police buddies track the stolen parts?
Why should I trust you? You're a cop.
Why you doing it?
Why you looking for Papa Doc?
Why you looking for Papa Doc?
Why?
Why?
Wife of Peter Dellaplane.
Will you be leaving, madam? I'll be happy to drive you.
Will you let me know?
Will you sing as a man?
With crew members whose names are being held...
With the car because the parts are hard to find for a '66 Impala.
With thinking like that, you'll be in the A Team in no time.
WOMAN (ON TV): Harbor officials report that the craft belongs to Lionel Grantham.
WOMAN 1: Congratulations!
WOMAN 2: Wonderful, Peter!
WOMAN: Hey! You little bastard! What's wrong with you?
WOMAN: I'll give you my purse where it'll do you the most good!
WOMAN: Ugh.
Women this beautiful don't come around too often.
Working for Springer, my job was to keep tabs on people.
Working his way through the union. Finding who's for him, who against.
Works fine.
Would you like a double bed?
Would you like me to accompany you?
Would you like me to spell it out for you?
Would you please sign here?
Yabba dabba doo.
Yeah, I guess I do.
Yeah, I know, but you're interrupting an aria.
Yeah, it must be your lipstick.
Yeah, Ray, you're talking to Mr. Security himself here.
Yes, I can hear it!
Yes, I see that. But on the other hand...
Yes, I'd say that just about sums it up.
Yes, sir.
Yes! Yes, I was sent!
You all look alike anyway.
You are.
You better believe it, brother.
You better start thinking about a new career, pal.
You called about a paint job?
You can never be too careful.
You can't hear what he's saying back here.
You can't possibly have a better suggestion.
You cost you your stripes, no one else!
You could teach Mr. T a thing or two.
You could've handled Sean Dellaplane more delicately.
You do, Mr. Dellaplane. And most generously.
You either gotta be queer or a cop.
You ever heard the sound a man makes...
You forget about. All right?
You give this department class. I'm surprised they don't make you captain.
You gonna take me in?
You got a quick mind. Ever think you're wasting it?
You got any leads?
You got it wrong. We saved each other.
You got something against women?
You gotta learn to leap before you look. One...
You gotta play for higher stakes!
You gotta use tranquilizer darts just to keep him in his chair.
You haven't learned your lesson?
You hear that?
You kidding? He owns you.
You know how bad I need a fix?
You know I never mix business with pleasure.
You know something? I don't understand what you're saying.
You know who I am?
You know, I think Peter admires you a little bit.
You know, Jackson, I can't believe we stayed partners as long as we did.
You know...
You look beautiful.
You lose.
You make a good living, don't you?
You may possess his manhood, but his soul's free and clear!
You must be a priest or something.
You need a new source of information.
You piece of shit.
You really shouldn't wear your heart on your sleeve.
You remember who pays your salary?
You should come and join me, baby
You sit down and you're gonna listen.
You sure travel in weird circles.
You sure you wanna know?
You think I'm geechie or something?
You think, uh, I may like to murder just for the entertainment value.
You trust me to go upstairs alone?
You two assholes if you don't shut the fuck up.
You understand what to do?
You want to shoot me? I'm not packing. Don't shoot me!
You won't live long enough to enjoy it.
You wouldn't talk to me. I didn't know what to do.
You wouldn't, by any chance, be a diabetic?
You'd probably slam my body through that wall, wouldn't you?
You're Action Jackson.
You're both stubborn. Both intent on getting what you want.
You're dissing me.
You're getting one.
You're gorgeous.
You're his sister?
You're Jackson, the local boy who didn't make it so good after all.
You're one big fella. How much do you weigh?
You're saying Dellaplane's killing off unfriendly AWA leaders...
You're saying we have President Dellaplane to look forward to?
You're the one and only
You're wanted for murder. Your name is Action?
Your charred body will be discovered among the ruins...
Your frick and frack.
Your mother and father weren't, by chance, brother and sister, were they?
Your old partner seems to be a magnet for trouble.
Always one when you don't need one. She's with me, motherfucker!
And how much is that? For you, it's free.
Are you going into town? I am. Would you like a ride?
As I said, I can't pay you but... Oh, oh.
Be quiet! Oh, how foolish of me, expecting...
Bite him, Dino. Bite him. Bite him! FRED: Go on! I dare you! I dare you!
But Catelli's dead, isn't he? Alas, he had no defense...
Can you get me into the party? Not and keep my marriage.
Cartier? Sir.
Come on, I wanna take you to a hospital. No! No, no.
Did you threaten to white him out? No.
Do you usually get calls late at night? I happen to be a very popular girl.
Don't be in such a hurry to get home. Ah. Mm.
Fuck it. JACKSON: Thanks.
Get that little shit! Look out!
Good afternoon, Mr. Foss. Sergeant.
Got that taste back in my mouth. Come on.
Ha, ha. We better call the meat wagon.
He rents me. Six of one, half dozen of the other.
He'll be out for a while. Heh, you don't know Edd.
Heh. JACKSON: Son of a bitch.
Hello! KID: They stole the bell.
Hi, darling. WOMAN: Hmm.
Hottest! Christ!
How did he miss? He didn't.
I am the man! MAN 2: Why looking for Papa Doc?
I didn't know a hotel was here. Neither does anyone else.
I don't have to. Wanna let him kill you?
I'll help you! I didn't hear!
I'm not wasting your time. I know.
In the morning? In the morning, lieutenant.
It's important. This is important.
Jackson here. TONY (OVER PHONE): It's Tony.
Jackson, call for you! Who is it?
Lieutenant? Is there an echo around here?
Looks like you haven't slept in days. I can't afford to sleep.
No. No?
Ooh. Ooh.
Ooh. Story of my life. Heh.
Please. Nice to see you. You look wonderful.
Put money down on it? Clovis, I'm a cop.
Ray Foss is on the line. I'll take it in my office.
Really? Mm hm.
Right? Who'd wanna kill you, Tony?
Run. Run?
Sergeant. I was just coming to see you.
Should be clean anyway. Yeah.
So I can be union president. Who's gonna kill him?
Stop the car! I can't do it without you.
That sounds pretty painless. Won't be that painless.
That wasn't so bad, was it? Why do I put up with your shit?
That's Papa Doc? Heh.
Well, of course. That rhymes. PATRICE: Heh.
What are you doing? You want a rush?
What do you want? Help me nail him!
What evidence connects the deaths? Am I hearing correctly?
What is it? Let's talk about it. It's Cartier.
What's gonna happen to me? KORNBLAU: Oh, nothing.
What's up his ass? Unh!
Where is he? Open it up.
Who was he? His name was Tony Moretti.
Who's Actson...? Action. Action Jackson.
Whoa. Sit down.
Why waste time, this is quicker! Stop, Jackson!
Why would I do a thing like that? Hmm.
Will you be leaving now, Miss Ash? Yes, she will, Edd.
Yes, sir. Like tonight, for example.
You dating Santa Claus? Ha, ha.
You familiar with the name? No.
You must be mistaken. No, I'm sure of it.
You nearly tore that boy's arm off! So?
You remind me of a friend. Why not bring him?
You said that you'd come see me more. Hmm.
You through? Heh, I'm through singing.
You were married once, weren't you? Yeah.
You're crazy. I need your help.
'66 Chevy Impala convertible is worth?
'Cause he's got those
"Come on down here. Join us at city jail. Dress casual. RSVP."
"Hot. Hotter. Hottest."
"I'm gonna tell Peter everything." Jackson, how do you do it?
"The old protein pickup."
