but...

What is this?

Nice house.

You think so?

That's Gavilan's house.

That's his front porch...

It's a classic whose time hasn't come.

And her car was there all night.

Where is he now?

We lost him.

Where's she?

This is a very romantic idea.

You're a stud.

No.

My partner's a stud,

but I've got a few... veteran moves.

If I take my ginkgo, I

can still remember where

I put the Viagra.

You really like this house?

I'll offer you 675, and not a penny more.

Collateral?

You're looking at it.

Sergeant Gavilan,

we're taking you downtown.

What a night.

Just one question, a**hole.

Why me?

You got no probable cause.

I'm a good cop.

Yeah.

You have the right to remain silent...

Here we go...

You have the right to

have an attorney present

during questioning.

Do you understand the rights

I've just explained to you?

Yes, I do understand the rights

you've just explained to me,

but you know what?

I'm not going to remain silent,

and I do not

need an attorney,

because this is all bullshit,

and you can put that on the record!

There is absolutely no need

to take your tie off during questioning,

Mr. Calden.

Why's he taking his shoes off?

I've got questions for you to answer.

You've got questions for me to answer?

I got questions for you to answer.

My first question is how does

a lightweight needle-dick

pencil-pusher like you

get assigned to I.A?

Oh, he's up on the table.

What is he doing?

He's on the table.

This conversation's being recorded.

This will reflect very badly on you...

Gavilan.

What, he's got a phone?

Jerry?

Slow down, Jerry.

Excuse me.

I'm busy here.

Okay

Okay, he's omm-ing.

There are some discrepancies

with your income and spending.

You mean I'm spending

more than I'm making?

Is that news?

Keep talking.

I think he's centering.

He's finding his center.

Gavilan.

What is this?

Julius.

Calm down, Julius.

It's not over.

Julius, it's never over.

Get him off the phone.

Guys?

Gavilan.

Cleo?

Police business.

Joe?

I can't talk to you.

I'll call you back later, all right'?

Gavilan.

Hey, Ruby.

What is going on?

The muscles, man.

I mean, that's...

Make him talk!

I have got the most intense compression

of the L4 and L5.

We have allegations of

commingling of funds.

I've been told that some

yoga and some massage

is really...

Oh, yoga, yoga, yoga.

That's great.

You can't hold out for seven.

Jerry, seven...

Okay, that's great.

I think that's enough.

I'm sorry.

We're that close, Jerry.

Jerry?

That looks really hard.

His position.

His position looks really hard...

He's not even...

he's not even talking, is he?

To do.

A tree?

Now he's a tree?

This is a setup, and it will not hold up.

I'm sure Joe Gavilan

is next door right now,

maintaining complete

professional integrity.

And you know it!

What the hell is going on?

Did you say anything in there?

Of course not.

You?

My phone wouldn't stop ringing.

Yo, K.C.!

This is insane.

Can you figure this out?

No, but I played my last card

buying you a couple hours,

so you can figure it out.

What did you want to talk to me about?

I like you, Joe.

Don't bullshit me.

You didn't talk to Vice,

so I made a deal with them.

What are you talking about?

They agreed to back off

if I agreed to testify.

Testify against whom?

You.

I was approached by Lieutenant Macko.

Said he heard that you and I

were involved sexually,

and maybe you and some of my girls

had, you know, relationships.

The kid too.

Look, I don't know what you did

to piss this Macko guy off,

but he cut me a deal, and I took it.

And you're telling me

this because you like me?

Yeah, Joe.

I thought you should know.

B*tch!

Gavilan.

Joe, listen, Bennie's going

to the D.A. right now,

not even waiting until the morning,

and the stakeout at Sartain's house

says he hasn't been seen in 24 hours,

and he hasn't been at

Sartain Records either.

All right, thanks.

What?

This guy, Sartain.

I don't even know where to find him.

Wait a second.

I got one idea.

Hey, Rube,

you ever done any psychic

work for the police?

You going to be home

for the next half hour?

Great.

What are you laughing at?

It's going to work.

This is ridiculous.

Joe, be quiet, please.

What are you doing?

I'm getting centered,

and if you don't leave me alone...

Joe, leave her alone for a second.

Flip a coin, make some sh*t up.

I don't care.

Sorry.

Continue, please.

There's a house on Sunset Plaza...

Yes?

But nobody's there.

We must move quickly.

Move quickly.

Turn right.

Right?

I see Rodeo Drive.

What happened to Sunset Plaza?

Give her a break, Joe.

We're getting close.

Hold on, hold on.

We're here.

Here?

Here, yeah.

Here?

Okay.

Here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

In here.

You sure?

Shut up.

Welcome to Beverly Hills.

I am not in the mood.

That would look so great on me.

Ruby...

How nice to see you.

I love that.

How much is it?

Don't worry.

That is cute.

You like that?

She's shopping...

Let her shop.

We have it in black and purple as well.

I'm out of here.

Goddamn it, Joe.

Do you have that in size 2?

Yes, we do.

This is ridiculous.

You've got to give her some space, man.

We got nothing else to go on.

Sartain!

Right there!

In the black S.U.V!

Get the car! Go!

Hey!

Move it!

Do you have the keys?

Yeah, they're in there.

Hey!

Hey!

Come on!

Hey, stop!

Stop, damn it!

You owe me $10.

I'll get it to you later.

Hey, stop!

Stop, goddamn it!

Go!

Go!

I'm going!

Don't speed.

You're in Beverly Hills.

Goddamn it, I don't want a ticket.

There he is.

Jesus, don't do this.

Out of the way!

Out of the way!

Get out of the way!

That's him, Danny.

Right here.

Turn.

Out of the car.

Easy, boss.

Get out of the car.

I quit!

Damn it.

Joe, you all right?

Son of a b*tch.

Come on.

Go!

Go!

Stay with him.

I am not going back to

prison on this bullshit!

Get out of the way!

Jesus Christ!

Stop!

Policia! Apurate!

Police!

Move the truck!

Get out of the way!

Move it!

Jesus Christ, if it's not

one thing, it's another.

This is Gavilan in pursuit

of possible 187 suspects.

Black Escalade, eastbound on Sunset.

Flying over the Hollywood Freeway,

all of a sudden we hear about this chase

on the eastbound side of Sunset Boulevard.

If you're driving anywhere

in the Hollywood area,

heading to Mid-Wilshire

and Beverly Hills,

I suggest you stay away.

The police need you to

stay out of the area.

Get out.

Watch!

Gavilan.

Are you okay?

Yeah, honey.

We had to go.

The guy showed up right across the street.

There really is something...

I know.

Look, I got to go.

I'll talk to you soon.

Take care.

We've got two more black and whites

joined up on the chase

in pursuit of a silver

Mustang convertible,

black Escalade, Sunset Boulevard,

doing about 50 miles an hour.

Those black and whites chasing me or them?

Both of us now.

Goddamn, you just

committed three felonies...

twice!

Gavilan. Yeah, Jerry.

No, I can talk.
