Cobra

In America...

... there's a burglary

every 1 1 seconds...

...an armed robbery

every 65 seconds...

...a violent crime

every 25 seconds...

...a murder every 24 minutes...

...and 250 rapes a day.

Jerry, don't push it together like that.

Will you just let me do it?

You make me sick!

Watch it!

Hey, pal!

Can I help you?

We are willing to talk.

No one wants to hurt you.

Do you understand?

We are willing to talk.

There's no more need for violence.

There's no way out except by talking.

Do you understand?

No one wants to hurt you.

We want to help.

Please, communicate with us.

You can go.

You can go!

You're free!

No one wants to hurt you.

Do you understand?

-Enough of trying to deal with this maniac!

-Get down!

All we need is more time.

We can get control of the situation.

What control?

Call the Cobra.

-How bad is it?

-It's bad.

Any l.D. on the guy?

Just another a**hole who woke up

hating the world. What's happening?

I don't agree with them bringing you

in here. I just want you to know that.

Come on.

Come on!

Move!

Get down, you.

Get down there, man.

Shut up!

You get away from her!

Shut up!

I'll kill you, man.

I'll kill them all!

It's the way of the New World.

So where are those TV cameras?

Hey man, I've got a bomb here.

I'll kill them all!

You bring in the TV,

or I'll kill them all.

You understand?

It's the way of the New World!

What are you waiting for?

Let's go!

Come on over here, I'll kill them.

You got that?

You're all trash, anyway.

You all deserve it.

Dirtbag!

You're a lousy shot.

I don't like lousy shots.

You wasted a kid for nothing.

Now I think it's time to waste you.

Hold it!

Come on, man.

I got a bomb here.

I'll kill her.

I'll blow this place up.

Go ahead.

I don't shop here.

Just relax, amigo.

You want to talk?

We'll talk.

I'm a sucker for good conversation.

I don't want to talk to you.

You bring the television cameras

in here now. Come on, bring it in!

I can't do that.

Why?

I don't deal with psychos.

I put them away.

I ain't no psycho, man.

I'm a hero!

You're looking at a f***ing hunter.

I'm a hero of the New World.

You're a disease, and I'm the cure.

Die!

Drop it!

Come on.

You okay, man?

You're the one

who killed the maniac?

Did he say why he did it?

ls it related to the Night Slasher?

The Night Slasher's a different case.

People, please!

Let's have a little room!

Was it necessary for it to end

like this? Did he have to die?

Come on, don't listen to this a**hole.

Did you use unnecessary deadly force?

I used everything I had.

Is this a public forum?

We have work to do out here!

We want to know what makes a policeman

a judge and jury. People have rights.

You think a maniac who blew a kid's

heart out should have rights?

No matter what you think, people

are entitled to protection by the law.

You tell that to his family!

All right, the show's over.

Come on, clear this area!

-Move it!

-F*** you!

What's your problem?

What's your problema, ese ?

You touched my car, man.

That's bad for your health.

What is, pinche ?

Me.

Clean up your act.

Yeah! You're in trouble, man.

You told him, ese.

Tonight, the man known as

the Night Slasher...

...has struck for the 16th time

in just over a month 's time.

The 22-year-old victim was

mutilated with a sharp instrument...

...and seemed to be just as unlikely

a victim as the other 15.

Not much else is known other than that

the Night Slasher preys upon anyone.

Victims have included businessmen,

Asian immigrants...

... the elderly and, in one case,

a sexually assaulted child.

The serial killer has thrown

the city into a panic...

...and up until now, no one

has had a clue to his identity.

The killer has been known

to cra wl through windows...

...and kill the victims in their sleep.

The method of death has been

silent instruments...

...such as cla w hammers,

knives and axes.

Cuts are straight, long, deep,

just like the others.

That brings the count to 1 6, and still

this bastard shows no distinct pattern.

Maybe there's more than one.

Look, this is not your specialty, okay?

This is pure investigative work. . .

. . .not jumping out a window.

-We need to beef up the task force.

-We need interagency cooperation.

Every department wants to be

the hero in this case!

I don't want to be a hero.

I just want to get involved.

If I may, captain. . .?

If we let Cobretti use his tactics,

we're asking for trouble.

What are you saying?

-He should stay on the zombie squad.

-You're telling me where to stay?

It's nothing personal.

We're just different kinds of cops.

Like Monte says, you're a specialist

who does a job nobody wants.

But we can't shake people down.

Internal Affairs will jump on us.

-Then we lost.

-Lost?

As long as we play by these bullshit

rules and the killer doesn't, we lose.

-What do you want to do?

-Nothing we can do, except wait.

For what?

For it to happen again.

I'm, like, really sorry.

Do you think there's, like, any damage?

How could you have hit me?

Have you been drinking or something?

Yes.

Get the license plate!

Come on!

He's daring us to catch him.

-We dig in and find that lead.

-Forget it.

Forget it?

What options do we have?

Call the bastard.

Metro Police. Can I help you?

Gentlemen.

Captain.

I won't waste any time.

You know almost every sicko

in this city. Shake them down.

Do what you have to do

to get a lead.

If I find him?

Do what you do best.

And try not to waste the wrong guy.

But then again. . .

. . .what do you care, right?

You know, when this is over. . .

. . .I'd like to celebrate by

punching a hole in Monte's chest.

You know what the trouble

with you is?

You're too violent.

It's all that sugar you eat.

-This is the first sugar today.

-It's that junk food.

Bullshit!

Try prunes, something natural.

Raisins.

Try fish.

Fish and rice. Very good.

Fish and rice!

-I'll take it from here.

-Sure?

No problem.

Her car's right over there.

You're in good hands.

Good night.

Listen, I still think if you wanted to,

you could be doing a lot bigger layouts.

I mean it's up to you,

but I could help.

I don't want to have

to play these games.

-Games? What games?

-You know what games!

I'd be sick not to want

to sleep with you.

Then don't do it for me.

Do it for your career.

Did you hear something?

It's not like I'm

asking you to marry me.

I see it will take time

to make you change your mind.

-So where do you want to eat?

-Please, Dan, I'm not hungry!

I'm not doing this for me, really.

Look, I'm just trying

to help you find happiness.

I forgot my bag.

You see?

You do need me.

Please! Come on!

My God!

Leave me alone!

They're trying to kill me!

Get back!

Kill her.

Doctor Dorson,

please call nurses ' station 4 West.

How long before that kicks in?

I don't want to sleep.

It won't make you sleep.

It will just calm you down.

Now, I'll be back when you're finished.

Hi.

Is it "Ka-nudsen"? Ka?
