Quick Change Page #6

I thought you said "interrogator."

That's all he says.

Come on. Give me the keys to the cuffs.

Get him a soda, will you?

Probably left your own country to escape

just this type of persecution.

Damn it. Get me an interpreter.

Don't you realize the robbers told

this man their destination?

Even if they did, sir,

he wouldn't have understood a word.

- I don't even know what language he talks.

- Get me an interpreter!

Here, fella. Drink that.

All right.

Who was the clown? Tell me now.

What the hell is this, Rotzinger?

Since when is it illegal to run for a bus?

- A bus?

- Yeah.

Since when is that a crime? A bus.

They're on a "blufftoney."

I don't have time for this.

Driver, I'm a little disappointed in you!

He wasn't really awake.

Don't you think we should

put him on formula?

By the way...

...how do you feel about kids?

How can you ask me that now?

I'm sorry.

I happen to think the slammer

is a bad environment for them.

Don't pop a stitch.

We're on our way to the airport.

- Near the airport.

- Loomis is asleep. He can't do anything.

- Except blurt out a total confession.

- You think that's gonna matter here?

Come on. Relax.

We're home free.

Grimm...

...I'm not coming with you.

What?

Jesus!

No. No, son.

I don't have time for this.

- You poor son of a b*tch. Come here.

- Him?

Come on. I got a schedule to keep.

- What can I do to help?

- Behind the white line!

- Listen, I'll pay his fare.

- Fine.

- You have exact change?

- You better get some help!

- You've become Ralph Kramden's evil twin.

- All right.

- Come on, son. Come on.

- Look.

There's $6ooo here. Okay? It's real. I know

how this city degrades the individual.

- It is appalling.

- Come on.

Take this and start a new life for yourself.

Somewhere off this bus, okay?

Come on! You're gonna break your guitar.

Come on.

There you go. Come on.

We got a schedule. Come on.

Let's move. Come on.

We will quietly pull over and board

all Number Nine buses.

We do not want another

hostage situation.

Is this the kind of person that you are?

We lose a little time, and all of a sudden

it's every girl for herself.

Yeah, that's me.

Well, if you stay behind,

you're gonna get caught.

I'll take my chances.

Why don't you tell me what I've done?

What is it that you want?

I just want you to leave me alone.

Move it! Today!

However, I will stay with you

a little while longer.

The thing is, Loomis,

we lost a little time.

Do you think you can walk any faster?

I'm sorry, Grimm.

I can't.

- You're not gonna hit me again, are you?

- Nobody's gonna hurt you.

- Again? I haven't hit anybody since I was 9.

- Yeah, but it was me you hit.

You threatened him,

and he's been through a lot.

Oh, are you still here?

Just promise him.

I promise.

- Was that our plane?

- No, no.

If it were our plane, it'd be crashing.

Where is the airport?

How far?

There must be a lot of competition

for that corner.

Man, thank God she's not

too symbolic or anything.

What does it mean anyway, Grimm?

I sure couldn't tell you.

You know, Grimm.

It means "flowers for the dead."

Oh, God!

We're all gonna die!

We're all gonna die!

Give him a moment.

He's getting his second wind.

Wait a minute. Phyllis can't ride

on that thing, not in her condition.

Hold on to your transfer to reboard.

Hold on to your transfer to reboard.

Hold on to your transfer to reboard.

Move right along.

Hold on to your transfer to reboard.

- There you go. Move along.

- Chief, you'll wanna hear this one.

- Why, you got something?

- Damn right, I do.

We're going to the airport.

I'm taking your car.

Need him to make an ID.

- You mean you weren't even gonna tell me?

- I wanted to, Grimm.

But when? Before the bank?

Just to add some pressure?

And what about after?

I tried to tell you several times...

...but you were too busy being complete.

Grimm, I gotta get this money

off my body.

We'll get you a duffel bag or something

after we get past the x-ray machines.

How many months?

Phyllis, please.

- They haven't boarded yet.

- Let them.

That means they'll pass the metal detectors.

They'll be trapped and unarmed.

I'll make the arrest onboard, quietly and

alone, before they know what's happening.

- It's my baby too!

- Jesus, this is a fairly young guy.

I've got trained anti-terrorist squads

who are prepared to deal...

...with this kind of thing.

- I want this.

Frankly...

...I need it, after today.

- Thank you, Roy.

- Got it.

Roy's gonna get us the duffel bag...

...a wheelchair and skis out of lost luggage

to cover your limp.

- You give him a couple of bucks?

- Try 12oo.

Scary, but Roy's sixth sense told him

we were in a jam.

ESP exists, Grimm. They proved it.

You picking up anything from me right now?

I'm gonna get boarding passes.

Am I gonna see you in there?

I'll make sure the Amazing Kreskin

gets inside.

Good.

Now what?

Hey, clown!

Get the hell back in line.

I just have one question.

Is there a problem, sir?

- Too many passengers, I'm afraid.

- Yeah, you'd better be afraid.

Nobody does this to Russ Crane.

Nobody does this to Mrs. Russ Crane,

you glorified stewardess, you!

What's the matter with you,

you afraid to do a man's job?

Right through there.

- Name, please?

- Oh, thank you.

Yes. Grimm.

The cops are looking for two men

and a woman, so let's split up.

Okay. I'll say goodbye now.

- Are you crazy?

- I'm sorry. Do you think this is easy?

- What did I do tonight that you didn't?

- Turned into Jimmy Cagney.

That bank was just a springboard for you.

You know, you ripped off the Mob...

...you bribed Roy, you totally demoralized

that guy Edison, and he had the gun.

You stole that watch.

I bought it, and the Edisons will have

better sex than they've had since Altamont.

Whatever I did, I did it so that

we could all leave here together.

Do you think I should just

be a bumbling idiot?

I just think you're not gonna

be able to go back to what you were.

I'm not! I'm going to Martinique

with a million bucks taped to my butt...

...unless you keep screwing around,

in which case, we'll all go to jail.

- Grimm, I'm thinking of the baby!

- He'll be 3 when you get out.

Foster families are great, unless you

get a mercenary or religious nut.

He can visit you. You can show him

how to make license plates.

Thank God you're reaching out

to me with love and understanding...

...instead of just trying to scare me.

It's all I have time for.

Now, one of us has to take Loomis

and push him. Why don't you.

The men's room, Grimm.

I'll freak out if I don't get

this money off me.

Oh, sh*t.

Meet me on the plane

in two minutes, okay?

Please?

You were hard on her.

It was the only way to make sure

in the time allotted.

Maybe you should've told her you loved her.

Maybe that was the way to make sure.

Oh, Jesus, Loomis.

Now you tell me.

All right. Just once more.

- No.

- Please?

- Ready? I'll go real fast. Please?

- No.

Yeah. Come on. Now!
