Hard To Kill Page #2

The governor today appointed

Assemblyman Vernon Trent...

...to the Senate seat vacated

by the tragic death of Senator Caldwell.

Your support fuels my efforts

and inspires me to work even harder.

I will not tolerate crime in this state.

And you can take that to the bank!

It's 6 A.M.

Morning, Martha.

What do we got here?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Doctor Carlin's ordered

a glucose drip for Jimmy C.

Max's E.E.G. monitor's

developing a nice electronic hiccup.

Poor Max.

And your boyfriend turned his head.

He did?

I thought he was going to sit up.

I almost sh*t.

See you for a cup of tea

in a few minutes.

I knew it.

You moved your head today,

you little devil.

Let's see,

what can I do for you here?

Very nice!

Great.

I've got a little surprise for you.

Be right back.

Would you like a little p*ssy?

A little bitty p*ssy.

Look what I've got here.

John Doe, can you hear me?

I know my words are getting through.

I don't care what the doctors say.

I'm going to keep

talking to you today...

...and tomorrow and the day after,

till you respond.

Besides, you've got so much to live for.

Please wake up!

Got to go see Jimmy C.

Bye.

Stupid machine.

Nurse.

Nurse.

We need to run some tests.

Alert X-ray for a CAT scan.

Call the lab.

We need a complete blood work-up.

John Doe.

Here we are.

Internal Affairs.

Detective Sergeant Goodhart.

My name's Andrea Stewart. I'm calling

from the L.A. Coma Research Center.

I'd like to speak to

Captain O'Malley, please.

What is this in regards to?

I have a John Doe coma patient,

code access 461-Zebra...

...with instructions to notify

in case of change in condition.

What's the change?

The patient has come out

of a coma after 7 years.

Nolan, get Hulland, quick.

I'm sorry, Captain O'Malley's

no longer with this division.

l'll take the information.

And please, contact

no one else on this matter.

It would be better

for the patient's welfare.

Ladies and gentlemen,

the President of the United States.

President Bush has caught

the public eye with his antics.

From throwing the first ball

on opening day...

...to kissing a pig

for the farmer's affections.

George Bush is becoming

a real crowd pleaser.

This is Andrew Louis

for Cable Hospital News.

What year is it?

- Try not to talk.

- What year is it?

It's 1990.

Your charts go back for 7 years.

Do you have any recollection

of anything?

I remember everything.

You're the first patient

to come out of a coma of this duration.

You'll be famous.

You'll be on the news.

Listen to me very carefully.

I'm a cop.

My wife and family were murdered.

That's how I got here.

If you don't get me out

of this hospital...

...within an hour, we'll both be dead.

You're my cutest patient,

but not my only one.

- You're making a mistake.

- L'll be back.

No. Don't go.

How's it going, brother?

Who are you?

I'm Danny, the physical therapist.

I'm going to give you a massage.

- L'll make you feel all right.

- Get the f*** out.

l'll just take you down the hall.

Can I see your list of patients

in your coma care unit?

Get me out. Thanks for the massage,

but stop and get me out of here.

Just relax. You'll get out

of here real soon, I promise.

Morning, Sherry.

How you doing?

Thanks.

Thank you.

- You know that doctor?

- No.

John Doe.

Excuse me.

Doctor?

I have to check everyone

on these floors.

Can I get your I.D., please?

You can't have too much security.

If you feel up to it, l'll get you some

lemon chiffon pie out of the freezer.

Get me out of here.

Don't worry.

l'll take good care of you.

If you want, l'll hook you up

with some pizza.

You got to learn to relax.

Orderly!

Give me a little help.

Give me some help down here.

What's wrong?

Russ! Russ!

What happened?

He's dead.

My poor back.

You son-of-a-b*tch!

Stop, you son-of-a-b*tch!

Oh, my God!

Russ! Danny!

l'll get you, Storm!

J.D.!

Oh, my God!

Now will you listen to me?

Hold tight!

Sorry.

Stop!

Hang on!

Watch out!

Ladies and gentlemen,

we are going to put a stop to it...

...and we're going to start right here!

We are going to put an end...

...to violence in this state,

and you can take that to the bank!

Hulland, plaster Storm's ass

with slime in the press.

Make him responsible for that mess

at the hospital. Tail people he knows.

We know how to do our job.

Then show me. I'm starring in the

son-of-a-b*tch's home movies.

If that crap gets out,

I'm looking at 30 years.

As many of you already know...

Geraldo.

Who's this guy?

...our program came to an

unexpectedly violent conclusion.

Are you crazy? I can't come in to work.

I can't even go to my apartment, Martha.

People are dead.

Then where are you?

I can't tell you.

Besides, you're better off not knowing.

The people's candidate, Senator

Vernon Trent, promises no new taxes.

And you can take that to the bank.

What am I going to do with this guy?

I want to help him...

...but he's all over TV. He's some kind

of crooked cop involved in...

Why are you out of bed?

I've got you.

Police speculate that Storm...

...who is known to have ties

with criminal elements...

...could have involved

his contacts in his escape.

Storm was thought to have been

a murder victim. A casualty...

...of his own greed.

A widespread search is now being...

This is Mason Storm. I'd like

to speak with Jerry Dunphy, please.

No, it's not a joke.

We can't stay here.

They'll trace us from the hospital.

Nobody knows I'm here.

I'm house-sitting.

This place belongs to

a doctor friend of my parents.

He's in China on research for 6 months.

The medical center

only has my apartment address.

Not even my friends have this number.

You've got to believe me.

You're safe here, okay?

This reporter was contacted personally

by the infamous...

..."Coma Cop,"

fugitive officer Mason Storm...

...who, until days ago,

had languished in a 7-year coma.

Storm said he's innocent of all charges

proffered against him in the press...

...and that he has

indisputable proof of this.

He has promised me a first look

at his alleged proof.

I want 24-hour surveillance

on that son-of-a-b*tch...

...and those 2 nurses from the hospital.

No, I can do it myself.

You do it, then.

You give me this beard?

You tried.

- You ever been to Chinatown?

- Yeah. Why?

This is a list of herbs and needles

that I need for my recovery.

Where did you learn to write Chinese?

When I was a kid, my dad was a

missionary. I was raised in the Orient.

As a young white boy over there...

...I needed to learn how to fight,

as you can imagine.

I remember...

...my first martial arts teacher

once said to me:

"So why do you come to me?"

I say,

"To learn how to fight."

And he says,

"So you want to hurt people."

"But do you want to be great?"

I say, "Yeah."

"I want to be great."

He says, "Then first learn how

to heal people to be great."

"To hurt people is easy."

Look at you!

You look great.
