Dead Bang Page #4

---

He's just been busy as hell

these days. Right, chief?

You didn't tell me

the FBI was in on this.

Oh, my fault, chief.

Well, you see,

I don't really think of Art as FBI.

I think of him more as a friend.

We hang out at the beach together.

I don 't believe

I've ever seen a cross like that...

...on a church before, Reverend.

Exactly what denomination is that?

The Aryan Nation Church of Christ,

Mr. Beck.

How does that differ from, say,

oh, the Baptists?

It embodies the nucleus

of what America once was...

...and will be again, Mr. Beck.

And just what is that, Reverend?

White and pure, Mr. Beck.

Cleansed

of its present racial impurities.

Our nation has become adulterated

by people of low blood.

They act like parasites on a giant oak,

feeding on it...

...day by day sapping its strength.

You make a powerful case, Reverend.

Frankly, I never looked at it that way.

Well, you're not alone, Mr. Beck.

Fortunately,

there are those among us who have.

I guess that brings me

to why we're here.

Do you know this man?

- I don't believe I do, Mr. Beck.

- Mr. Beck.

Thank you.

His name is Robert Burns, or Bobby.

We have reason to believe

he might contact you.

Well, we have many friends

who stop by, Mr. Beck.

Friends from coast to coast

and border to border.

It's him.

It's the guy with the cops

from the Steadman place.

It's the guy that sighted me

with the.38.

What the f*** is he doing

in Oklahoma?

I don't know.

Maybe he's a fed.

He's no fed. Feds are neat.

Whoever this guy is,

he wouldn't last a week with the feds.

The other guy's coming over.

Now, he is a fed. Look at him.

So clean, you could shoot him

and bury him in the same suit.

But that other motherf***er...

...I can't figure him out.

It's kind of hard to reconcile this

with godliness and hot apple turnovers.

Yeah, the scary part

is they put up such a good front.

No,

the scary part is, is that it ain't no front.

Nine millimeter.

Bobby Burns' weapon of choice.

So you think he's been here?

I know he's been here.

You mind telling me what took you?

It's freezing out here.

Chief wanted his coat back.

You didn't bring a cold-weather coat?

What's the matter with you?

Nothing that a little overdue

expense money wouldn't cure.

Tell me. You got any new ideas

about what we're dealing with here?

- Like what?

- Come on, Kressler, open your eyes.

These people

aren't a ragtag bunch of yahoos...

...that drink beer and run around

in sheets on Saturday night.

They got money behind them.

They got strong pockets

of community support.

No proof.

You don't know that for sure.

The hell I don't.

We just walked out of one.

Who the f*** do you think called ahead

and warned Gebhardt?

- They were standing on the porch...

- Excuse me.

As one professional to another...

...I would appreciate if you would

minimize your constant use of profanity.

- You're kidding.

- No, sir, I'm not kidding.

I'm telling you

something's going on here.

I'm telling you something big

is happening here...

...and all that grabs you is my language?

What the f*** is the matter with you?

That's a good example.

I'm a Christian, Beck.

I'm sure that seems like probably a joke

or something to you...

...but I find your language

personally offensive.

If you need me for anything,

I'll be at the Marriott...

...in Oklahoma City until 9.

My flight leaves at 10:05.

I'd get a cold-weather coat

if I were you.

You could freeze to death

in this weather.

Excuse me?

You...

You mean because Western Uniors

computers are down...

...I can't get my money?

Well, can you tell me

when they're gonna be back up?

I don't f***ing believe this.

Keep driving.

You're gonna turn left

at the street right up here, okay?

Who are you?

You first.

I'm the Grim Reaper.

Now you.

I'm a cop from L.A.

You're no cop from L.A.

I saw you in Arizona

and now here in Oklahoma.

F*** it.

It doesn't matter who you are

when you're dead.

You know,

before you kiss this world goodbye...

...there is something you should know.

You cops, judges,

whatever the hell you are...

...you keep thinking

you can solve the problem...

...by putting us in jail.

Or killing us.

That's what the Romans thought

when they took Christian people...

...and they fed them to lions.

That's what the Romans thought...

...when they took Christians

and they put them into the sewers.

Catacombs.

It's the same thing today.

Only the catacombs

have different names.

Like San Quentin and Soledad...

...and a hundred other prisons

across this country.

Because you see,

it didn't die in the sewers of Rome.

It grew and grew.

One idea, one cause.

Every single prisoner's got it.

And the Romans couldn't kill it

and neither can kiss-ass liberals...

...or cops.

Very easy.

I'm right here.

This is 45 Adam.

Officer needs assistance.

Sh*t.

Go. Go. Go.

Freeze! Arms away from your head!

Don't shoot, don't shoot, I'm a cop.

- Don't move!

- I'm a cop, I'm a cop from L.A.

I got some ID. Right here.

See?

One more thing.

I call a man back for an assignment,

I don't wanna hear...

...a 15-minute recitation on the phone

in order to accomplish it.

I got a tremendous amount

of bullshit going on here.

I don't need any additional tsuris.

But, Jerry, I like you,

so I'm not gonna waltz you around.

- You're in big trouble on this one.

- It's Agent Kressler, the a**hole...

It's Agent Kressler,

it's a P.O. Named Webly.

It's patrol officers

from Kimble's murder...

...who said that you acted

in an insensitive manner.

It is a goddamn Greek chorus of folks,

Jerry.

There are complaints

of excessive drinking...

...language unbecoming an officer,

physical intimidation...

...and kidnapping.

Look, I didn't kidnap anyone. L...

That's a beautiful rebuttal,

considering the list of charges.

Chief, look,

before you make any decisions...

...you've gotta look at this stuff.

This is the map that I told you about.

All right, here is the route. Right here.

I got names and addresses of people.

These are the letters.

These are just some of the letters.

I'm telling you,

there's something big going on here.

More than anyone guessed.

This isn't a group of people

standing around...

...yelling "n*gger" and "kike" and...

And "spic." This...

This is a goddamn movement.

This is... They got organization.

They got money.

They got resources

I wish the f*** we had.

Jerry, not now.

Let's deal with first things first...

...like keeping you on this case.

Now, to do that,

I'm gonna need some help.

Some ammunition

only you can provide.

I've set up an appointment

with a Dr. Krantz...

...one of those

department psychiatrists.

You convince him you're okay,

you're on the next flight out.

Four o'clock this afternoon.

Don't be late and don't f*** it up.

Mr. Beck? Dr. Krantz.

- Pleased to meet you, doctor.

- Come in.

I know how stressful

these things can be.

Just think of me as one of the guys.
