Righteous Kill Page #2
No one at my law firm will know
that l got busted, right?
lt never happened.
Look, Counsel, we all know you
better than this.
You just do this, you stop
shoving that sh*t up your nose,
you go home, you get married,
you have kids,
you never come back here,
and that's that.
Yeah.
Everybody's in position.
- Okay, we're going.
- Yes, sir.
Let's push the signal
back 50%.
Hey, Jessica.
Break a leg.
lt's two flights down.
The door's on the left.
Ring the bell.
Hey, Stubby, why don't you
go and escort our company up here?
Go on, fat boy.
Get it on.
- Good afternoon.
- Hey, Spider.
- l'll be downstairs.
- All right.
- How are you?
- All right, baby,
just checking out this wizard sh*t
before l let my kids watch it.
- You seen this?
- No.
The guy is a stone dealer.
l let my little ones watch this--
they'll all turn out junkies.
You know what l'm saying?
He's got a point.
- You remember Underdog?
- What about him?
That f***ing dog spawned
a generation of junkies.
So you converted the bank
into a club and a recording studio?
- Yeah. You like it?
- Yeah.
What are you talking about?
What did Underdog do
all the time?
He was always shining shoes
and whenever Sweet Polly Purebred
would call out to him,
his dog ears would pick it up
and he'd rescue her.
Yeah, but what did he do
when he needed his super strength?
He'd go to his ring, remember?
Pull out a pill, pop it.
Holy sh*t, you're right.
He was a little f***ing speed freak.
So what's the business?
How about a QP?
You're good for a QP.
The f*** you want with QP?
l'm going skiing with friends,
a lot of friends.
- Where?
- Aspen, Colorado.
Sh*t. l'm sure you can
score one in Aspen.
Not your primo brand.
You ski?
Sure. My whole life.
Come on, l don't have all day.
Why don't you put down your jacket,
stay a little while?
What do you think?
Actually,
l've got to run.
l have a major lPO
closing in an hour, so...
You know, stress will kill you.
You gotta chill out.
l'm as chill as l get.
What do you want to do?
You know, every once in a while...
one of you Upper East Side b*tches
gets popped,
tries to to roll over
on a nigga like me.
You're scared now.
Looks like the cavalry
come to rescue you.
Can l help you, gentlemen?
Yeah, let us in, Spider.
l'm sorry, there's no one here
by that name.
- Let us in.
- We only want to talk to you.
See, l know how to look
and l know where to look.
Come to papa.
lt always hurts the first time.
You all right?
Why wouldn't she be all right?
We're watching TV.
How the f*** is she gonna get hurt
watching TV?
She could have seen or heard
something that scared her.
- Like what?
- Like some big f***ing mutt
shooting his bug fat
f***ing mouth off.
Wasn't nobody here fitting that description
till a minute ago.
l'm gonna show you ugly,
you f***ing mother--
- We've said enough.
- Oh, you finna bring your wife up in here?
That's it. That's it.
Let's go. lt's okay.
- You okay?
- Yeah, l'm okay. l'm okay.
You want your wire back?
Firearm!
No, Stubby, no!
Get down.
Get the f*** down!
Come on.
The fat one's dead.
Well, that went well.
Oh, sh*t, you're bleeding.
l need EMS. Subject shot,
Really, l tried my best.
You're doing just fine, Counsel.
You're doing just fine. Just relax.
Hey, guys, if you ever
need a lawyer...
Yeah, okay.
You bet.
ln good old days
we used to
let the perp bleed out
and call off the ambulance.
- Calm calm calm.
- F***ing lowlife.
You made your point.
You made your point.
Tough little b*tch, ain't you,
kicking a man while he's handcuffed?
Shut the f*** up,
you piece of sh*t.
You think l won't blow
your f***ing head off?
l wouldn't think twice
about it.
l'd go in there,
get the fat boy's gun,
come back here
and put two between your eyes.
Where's EMS?
This thing was a clusterfuck
to end all clusterfucks.
You got nothing.
How about felony murder?
No drugs, right?
So no predicate felony,
no conspiracy,
no nothing.
No felony. No felony.
l can't believe this.
No felony.
How do you spell felony?
Homicide, racketeering, drugs--
l mean, what are we talking about?
Hey, you're lucky
that white girl didn't die.
lAB is gonna interview
both of you
and do a preliminary report
over the next couple of weeks.
Now off the record
you actually didn't violate procedure
because the victim had a firearm
aimed at you,
so if you stick together
you should make it through this.
You'd better get
your story straight too,
'cause l'm not going back to Far Rockaway
because you two f***ed up.
And you're gonna spend some couch time
with the rubber-gun squad.
And you'd better take this shrink seriously
or you'll be off active duty.
That f***ing piece of sh*t
just walks.
Knock it off, Turk.
Relax, partner.
He's gonna get his.
Gentlemen, your questions.
- Who made the decision to enter?
- l did.
- Whose decision was it to enter?
- Mine.
Did you immediately identify yourselves
as police officers?
- Yes, we did.
- Did you immediately identify yourselves?
The informant's position
was becoming untenable.
- We were afraid she was in danger.
- Turns out you were right.
- No f***ing kidding, nine-to-fiver.
- Excuse me, Detective?
Are you finished
with my client?
- They're like Lennon and McCartney.
- Not an inch of daylight between them.
What do you think?
Nothing there.
They endangered the informant.
We can't make them wrong on that.
They saw a gun, they reacted.
They beat the f***
out of the suspect,
but he's not filing charges.
Let's see what the shrink says.
So what are we gonna
do now, Doc?
Are we gonna find out
if l'm sane enough
to carry a gun,
chase bad guys?
Okay, why did you become a cop?
Well, it was New Year's Eve.
lt seemed like a good idea at the time.
l didn't have the same opportunities
you had, Dr. Prosky.
Where l come from
it was either a gun and a badge
or a hard hat and a hammer.
How do you feel
when you fire your weapon?
lt's like Dirty Harry said--
''There's nothing wrong
with a little shooting as long as
the right people get shot.''
And when the wrong people
get shot?
lt sucks, but l'd rather be in it
that out of it.
There's nothing worse
than being stuck on a bench.
How do you feel when you see
innocent people get killed?
You know...
l sort of get numb to it.
Here.
l want you to take this.
Use it to jot down your thoughts,
your questions,
anything you may have noticed
about yourself,
whatever.
l won't ask for it.
Just for you.
l want you to try it.
Sounds like fun.
Harder.
Go, Turk, go!
You got third.
Go go!
Yeah!
Look at that.
You own it. You own it.
No matter what they say
about you,
you're tremendous!
Go go, Turk, go!
Safe.
You dropped the ball.
- A f***ing cheap shot, man.
- Get away from the bag.
- Or what? Or what? Or what?
- Watch the bag.
The NYPD is bubbling
with frustration,
hostility and testosterone,
ready to erupt
