You'll take 6.9 now?

I don't know.

It might be too late.

I'll make a call.

Go, go, go!

Cut over!

Get out of the way!

Watch it!

Sorry.

Let me know when you're

back on the street.

All right, it's almost over, don't worry.

Be advised, we're getting crowded up here.

We've got a lot of news

choppers in the sky.

The air babes are up here.

It is not just crazy in the streets.

It is crazy up in the air right there.

We have one, two, three...

I see Vera, Jennifer York...

I see Lauren, Vera over there...

You get a deal on that house yet?

They're dicking me around,

but I'm working on it.

Watch it!

Watch it!

I'm watching!

Julius, he says he'll take 6.9 now.

That's what he says.

Let me make a call.

Bye.

Get off Sunset!

Go! Go!

I got them.

Is that Joe Gavilan?

Looks like they're going to try to travel

right up towards Hollywood Boulevard,

where we've got a huge crowd

right in front of Grauman's

Chinese Theater.

I don't know what's going on there,

but this is a very, very

dangerous situation.

...and we're going to honor him

in one of the most famous traditions

here in Hollywood...

Watch it, watch it, watch!

Goddamn it!

Idiot!

That's it! That's it!

I'm driving!

All right, all right.

You think you can do better?

Go ahead.

Be my guest.

Damn it!

You're trying to kill me!

All right!

Go!

Trying to kill me.

Go ahead.

This is a tradition that

started back in 1927...

when a little dog named Zorro...

Oh, yeah, this is much better.

Thank you.

Jumped out of Mary Pickford's car...

into wet cement.

Nice driving.

Sorry.

The Mustang was just hit by the Escalade,

and this chase came to a screeching halt

right in front of Grauman's

Chinese Theater,

where apparently,

someone was getting their star.

Go!

Go!

I got Wasley!

Get out of the way!

Go!

Get out of the way!

Police! Police!

Stay down!

Mayhem is breaking out in front

of Grauman's Chinese Theater,

resulting in a foot pursuit

down Hollywood Boulevard.

They've got their weapons drawn.

Shots have been fired.

People are scrambling,

trying to get out of the way.

Everyone is just running

around down there.

It's a mess.

Excuse me. Sorry.

Excuse me.

Look out down there!

Holy sh*t!

Oh, God...

That was not the way

I planned it.

I'm a cop.

Help me up.

Thank you.

I'm okay. I'm all right.

Thank you.

Hey, move, move.

Move!

Hey! Get out of the way!

Police!

Get out!

Stop!

Sh*t.

Hey! Police.

Get out of your car.

What the hell?

I need your car.

I'm sorry.

I'll get it back to you.

My family's in there.

I've been robbed!

Police! Somebody help me!

Get out of the way!

Watch out! Police!

Police!

Don't worry, kids.

You need to slow down.

I can't slow down.

I'm chasing this guy.

It's kind of fun?

No, it's not!

We're going to die.

I know we're going to die.

Yes, actually, we will die.

No, you're not going to die.

I don't mean right now.

Hey, get out of the car!

Police! Police! Get out!

Hey, look...

Get out of here.

That's mine!

Give me that!

B*tch!

A**hole!

Move! Police!

Move!

Move, move, move!

Goddamn it!

You all right?

Watch out!

Move! Move!

Move!

Hey, kids, Hindus say

that life is a rebirth.

Ganesh had his head

chopped off by his father.

They put an elephant's head

on and he was immortal.

You're crazy!

It's not a bad thing if

we do die, all right?

Get out of the cab!

It's my cab!

My Cab!

No, man, it's my cab.

It's my cab!

Get in the car!

Police!

Police!

I am the police!

For chrissake, get in the cab!

Move!

Move!

If you wreck my cab...

Don't worry. Sit back..

I'm a very good driver.

I don't want to die!

We're not going to die, all right?

My god, you're crazy!

Shut up, okay?

Please!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Wait a minute, man.

Where's my fare?

How much?

$10.

$10...$10.

There's a tip.

Hey, hey!

Hey, hey, cop!

What about 6.75?

I don't think that'll do it.

Not a penny more!

Get down! Get down!

Get the hell down!

Get up.

Get in front of the door.

Get in front of the frickin' door!

- Come on, come on, come on.

- What are you doing?

Jerry?

I've just been with Julius,

I've twisted his arm,

I have a firm offer for 6.75. 6.75.

Yes, sir, 6.75.

Firm.

You will?

You will?

Oh, God.

You will?

Oh, that's fantastic.

I'll have the paperwork started

first thing in the morning,

as soon as I get to the office, okay?

Well, I've got to run now.

Thank you very much.

I'm a real estate broker.

Hey.

Yeah, he needs a pop-out trailer,

cook, driver, trainer

with a gym that travels,

dog walker, hair and makeup guys.

I'll fax you the rest of the perks.

Don't shoot me.

Don't shoot?

Don't shoot me.

Don't shoot, Wasley.

Please don't shoot me.

"Please"?

Are you shitting me? "Please"?

You're not going to beg.

I'm begging you, man.

Please don't...

H2O didn't beg.

They screamed and hollered.

They didn't beg.

Fat-ass Klepto ran a couple of yards.

You can run.

I don't even want to be a cop anymore.

I want to quit,

and I won't tell anybody

about this, I swear to God.

Just please don't shoot me.

I don't want to die, okay?

My father was your partner.

Just please, God, just

don't shoot me, okay? Please.

Shut up.

Don't you talk about your father.

Your daddy didn't beg when he got shot.

He was a good cop.

Please...

just don't shoot me.

Don't do it!

Don't do it, Wasley.

Don't.

That was a great performance.

That was probably good enough

to be at least a Golden Globe.

I don't know about an Academy Award,

but definitely a Golden Globe.

I believed it myself.

I mean, all the, you know,

"Don't kill me, man.

Don't freaking kill me."

I mean, I especially liked that part

where you talked

about killing my father...

but it's okay,

because I got it all right here.

See that?

Your confession and my performance,

all on one tape.

That will sell great.

Air Six, suspects are now on the rooftop

of the old Broadway Building.

Shots have been fired.

Air Six, Air Six, get on the horn

and get these news

choppers out of here, now.

I can't work in here.

I need orbit room.

You've got to move them back...

He's telling us to get out of their way.

But we are not moving.

We are not moving.

The L.A.P.D.'s trying

to kick us out of here.

We still don't know

who the good guy is, who the bad guy is.

I've never seen such drama

in Hollywood before.

Air Six, we're on the roof.

Where is he?

You want me to get him out, Joe?

No, leave him for the coroner.

Where's the kid?

Down that way.

You okay?

Yeah.

You?

Don't I look okay?

Where's Sartain?

And Wasley?

Good job.

Good thing you didn't kill him.

Ah, you know me, Joe.

I don't like dead bodies.

I got arrest warrants

for Gavilan and Calden

right here.

Hey, separate them.

I don't want them talking to anybody.

Nobody talks to them

until they get downtown.

Shut up and turn around, Bennie.

What?

Cuff his ass and take him downtown.

What are you talking about?

Get your hands off me, son of a b*tch.
