Death Wish II Page #4

- She'll hate it.

Ask her anyhow. Let me know one way

or the other, will you?

Do you know what time

they're gonna make their move? Ah-ha.

Thanks, Sergeant. Please keep

those calls coming in. All right.

- Hi Fred. What's happening?

- There was a big shoot-out last night.

Five people killed including

a New York cop.

The tac squad's been called in. I want

you glued to those police monitors.

A man called Wilson

got away from the shoot-out.

The word is

they may take him this afternoon.

If they do, I want someone there.

We need an exclusive.

Where do you get these monitors?

We adapt them ourselves.

Lots of people do.

Happen to have

a spare one lying around?

There was one we were gonna get rid of.

We've got better ones now

but this one still works pretty well.

A gift from KABC radio.

The tac squad operate on this band

and they identify with 3A-90.

The truth is, their programs

are more interesting than ours.

Thanks, Fred.

(gospel singing)

(radio) Yankee Charlie available

and will handle.

(indistinct radio communication)

(radio) 3A-68. Subject's residence

located as 914 Philmore.

Units moving into position.

5H-13, this is 3A-90.

We could use a definite 10-20.

Affirmative, 914 Philmore. Stay clear.

No units to move

until I give the word.

Squad three moving into position. Over.

5H-13, this is 3A-90.

We have eyeballed your 10-30. Over.

- Has he spotted you?

- Negative.

We're across the street from the 10-20.

Can take him now.

- Hold it. He's mine.

- Standing by.

3A-90. This is 5C-61. Sir,

they just entered 10-20 with two exits.

3A-46. Subject lighting object. Appears

George, you got a cigarette?

(radio) Section 804, await instructions.

This is 3A-90.

Someone jumped onto the roof of 914.

Confirm it was one of us. Over.

How the hell do I know?

Hold your positions.

(old man coughing)

(Nirvana) Don't give me that sh*t,

you b*tch.

(girl) F*** off, a**hole.

I'm getting out.

(Nirvana) Give me that stuff!

Watch out. He's got a knife.

Cool it. The streets are too crowded.

Hold your fire.

- OK, fellas. Let's get him.

- Hold him down.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- How was the birthday party?

- We're getting a bit old for birthdays.

- Have you seen this?

- Oh, yeah. I saw it.

- Do you know anything about it?

- No more than you do.

I hear KABC

got an exclusive this afternoon

when they caught

the guy who killed him.

- I heard it in the car.

- Have you eaten?

- No, I drove straight here when I heard.

- Let's go somewhere nice.

- OK, I'll freshen up first.

- How long will it take, an hour?

- About that.

- I'll pick you up in an hour.

- You know, I rather liked him.

- He was nutty, like I said.

At least they caught his killer.

See you later.

(man) Prosecution has presented

only circumstantial evidence

that Charles Wilson was the person

that shot and killed Detective Frank

Ochoa on the night of May 14.

It is proven that the defendant attacked

several police officers on May 15

but psychiatric testimony indicates

that he was under the influence of PCP,

a mind-altering drug.

Charles I. Wilson was remanded

to the McLarren state hospital

until such time

as the medical examining board

finds him fit

to resume his place in society.

I suppose this is the Dr. Clark that's

gonna turn him into a little angel?

Would a normal prison do any better?

It would keep him from killing

somebody else for a while.

Is this the stuff for your article?

When's it come out?

I've got a couple more sessions

at the hospital.

It's due to go in the July issue.

Do you really believe all this?

Yes, I do.

You might, too, if you heard Clark.

You think he could swing me over?

If you met him,

you might learn something.

Maybe you're right.

Maybe you're right.

- I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting.

- Dr. Clark, this is Mr. Kersey.

I'm so glad you came along. The more

people who see our work, the better.

I appreciate your letting me come.

Say, Doctor. Where is the men's room?

Let me show you. Go down the hall, round

the corner, and second on your left.

Thank you.

The right.

(Tannoy) Would Dr. Ferguson report

to the Intensive Care Unit?

- You're late.

- Look. They gave me the cover.

How about that?

"Next month, Geri Nichols on crime

and punishment in Los Angeles."

- That's terrific.

- Do you think Elliott will give me a raise?

Or a reduction because of all the hours

you've spent at the hospital.

You've spent time there.

You must know the place as well as I do.

Yeah, but I'm still not converted.

All those theories are just that, theories.

Mm. Dom Perignon?

- Enjoy your lunch.

- Can't be my birthday. It was last month.

You forgot. But that's all right.

Will you marry me?

- Are you serious?

- Yes, I'm serious.

You're not sick?

Maybe after I see the check,

but I feel fine now.

Easy, easy. This stuff costs

three dollars a drop.

That was a

nine-dollar kiss.

I accept. That'll teach you.

Next Wednesday, we'll catch

the midnight flight to Acapulco

and get married in Mexico.

I thought you weren't a romantic.

After the program you drive to my

place, then off we go.

Let's get smashed.

Then I want it in writing.

(gospel singing)

(indistinct conversation)

Excuse me.

I'm looking for a patient, Charles Wilson?

I believe he's in C block. Is that right?

Yeah, C block, section 6, room 30.

- It's that way.

- Thank you.

I'm Dr. Carter, court-appointed

therapist for Charles Wilson.

Your name isn't here.

- My appointment's for nine o'clock.

- They usually give me a list of doctors.

I was told Mr. Kay would be on duty.

That's me but

I can't let you through unless...

I'm already late.

I'd like to finish and get home to dinner.

Now would you

please show me to room 30?

Hi, Eileen.

Cook it all by yourself, did you?

That's right.

If you don't want to stay,

punch 3600 to get out.

I've got to

take the doctor down here.

(nurse) Enjoy the food, then.

(sports commentary)

(Tannoy) Will Dr. Dick Middlemass

please go to ward 16?

(commentator) The score will remain

as the call is offside.

Do you want to

see him here or in the cell?

Here.

- What's that back there?

- The electro-shock room.

Since you fellas took over,

they don't use it much.

It's all done with kindness now.

Isn't that right, Doctor?

- Therapy.

- Call it what you like.

OK, Wilson. You got a visitor.

Let's go. You know the routine.

- Do you want me to stay?

- It's not necessary.

If you need me, just pull this.

I'll get my dinner.

My wife wanted to go

somewhere she'd never been before.

I said,"Try the kitchen."

(Wilson screams)

He raped and killed my daughter.

I read about it.

I'll give you three minutes

till I ring the alarm.

You're wasting time.

- To open the door you punch out...

- 3600?

That's right.

(alarm sounds)

Man, what's wrong with you?

You got a problem?
