The Heat Page #13

Synopsis: Sarah Ashburn, an FBI agent, is extremely ambitious and has her eye on a promotion, but she doesn't get along with her co-workers. She is sent to Boston to uncover the identity of an elusive drug lord, Mr. Larkin, by tracking down his proxy, Rojas, and is told that she'll have a good shot at the promotion if she finds Larkin. When she arrives in Boston, she learns that Larkin has been eliminating his competition and taking over their operations. She learns that Rojas is in Boston PD custody and goes to see him to ask him what he knows about Larkin, but is warned that the cop who arrested Rojas, Shannon Mullins, is very territorial, and she is not exactly sociable. When the two meet they don't get along. When Mullins learns why Ashburn is in Boston, she decides to find Larkin herself. Ashburn is told by her boss to work with Mullins, but it won't be easy because Ashburn does things by the book while Mullins does things her way.

Go!

Get yourself untied.

Then we're gonna go

get Jason. Got it?

Why won't they

answer the f***ing phone?

Go, go, go!

Oh, dick-f***er!

Get off the f***ing phone!

Useless!

We got something!

I got it.

Get her on the stretcher.

No, I got it. I got it!

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Wow, crap.

Here we go. Oh, crap.

All right. Got to turn.

Call 911!

You won't shoot me?

Just call it!

Where is my brother,

you a**hole?

It's that kind of language

from your family

that forced us to move

him to the east wing.

Move, dipshit!

Jason, I'm coming!

What the f***?

Come on, come on.

This stupid chair!

Screw it.

It's amazing what a little air

in the bloodstream

does to the human heart.

You may not want to watch this.

Wait!

I just want you to know

that I get it.

I get it. I mean...

...I've been on the job

a long time and...

...you just see so many bad

things and bad people and...

...you just start to wonder if

there's anybody good anymore and...

...I just want you to know that

you don't have to do this.

You don't have to do it.

I know.

But I do.

Because I have plans

that don't involve

me going to prison

with people I put there.

So say good-bye

to your mick brother.

Wait!

Drop it or I'll

fire this weapon!

Or I inject...

Oh, you shot him in the dick!

Twice.

Oh, sh*t!

I took a page right out

of your book, partner

But I've never done it.

I just aim it at it. I don't actually do it.

That's too f***ing crazy.

What about Julian?

I take the bullets out!

I just use it as a tactic to scare him.

I mean, Jesus, I'm not crazy!

Don't make me

feel bad about it!

No, I know.

Ooh, watch that leg.

You did good, little buddy.

You saved my brother's life.

Internal Affairs is going to open

a top-to-bottom investigation

of every department now.

Nice work.

Well, it was

a team effort, sir.

Yeah, we put out

an APB on Julian.

Oh, don't bother,

he's in the trunk.

Oh, and, sir...

...we're going to have to reopen

the Red Falls Killer case.

Good for you.

I thought that would feel

good, but it felt awful.

That's probably

gonna just keep feeling bad.

But I'm glad you did it.

Should we be

leaving the hospital?

Oh, sh*t. No.

Probably not.

Probably not. Spin it.

Let's take this one.

Get up here.

Is that clean?

It's clean enough.

Oh, my God! It smells like

several people died on here.

Let me just sit. I don't

need to be on my face!

You can

help the process.

Not clean!

Inchworm it up.

Okay, that's good.

Just flip me.

Get off the leg,

get off the leg.

Don't fall off!

I want this place

locked down, people!

Nobody goes in or out

without talking to me!

I want you three stationed at each

end of the east wing. Let's go!

Let's clear

this hallway, people!

Get the press out of here.

You Okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm good.

Yeah, I knew you would be.

I'm good, too.

Excuse me.

This woman is one of the

best agents in the FBI.

Make sure she's well taken care of.

All right?

That was...

That was interesting, right?

I would look into that.

What is that?

All right, let's go.

You actually have to stay here.

Well, just do what you

can to save that leg.

Oh, I'm not a doctor.

All right, fucktard,

I know you're not a doctor.

But tell it to the doctor!

How about that?

All right! I'll wait

right here for you!

Throw out that sandwich!

I'll bring you that sandwich!

No! Throw it out!

You got it, buddy.

For outstanding service...

...Officer Shannon Mullins.

There you go, Shannon! That's

what I'm talking about!

Now hold it up!

Hold it up! Yeah!

Take out the gun!

Just

a little snooze, man.

I move to

cake-toast to Jason!

Yeah! To Jason!

May I have your attention?

I wanted you to have this.

It was your grandmother's.

She would have been

very proud of you

for taking care

of your brother.

That's awesome.

Take a picture.

Take a picture!

Come on, take a picture!

Are you serious?

"Dunkin' Jesus"?

No cell phones.

How about now?

Oh, different story?

Aw, come on back!

Hey, it's me.

So, you getting all

settled in your new digs?

Yeah, they're pretty sweet. Who

needed that promotion anyway?

I'm glad I stayed around

where all the action is.

We got a lot of scumbags

to take down here in Boston.

Yeah, we do.

Hey... did you get

that package I sent?

Oh, I haven't opened

it yet I'm sorry.

Your dad sent me

something, too.

So it's like

the Mullins gift day.

Oh. Okay.

I signed it in the front.

Does that mean you broke

into my house again?

Maybe, maybe not.

Amazing how that door

opens all by itself.

I see it. Very funny.

I know. I was just kidding.

Look at the back.

Oh, you wrote something

else mean and...

...profanity-laden

in the back?

Okay, here it is.

Well... don't make it weird.

Later, nerd.

It takes a nerd to know a nerd.

Okay. You made it weird. Bye.

I left

my baby in the car.

Hey, there's, uh...

...something I've been

thinking about a lot

that's been bothering me and...

I got you something.

Oh.

I found your friend.

Pumpkin!

Awesome, right?

I drove all the way

to New Jersey,

and I was up and down these

streets, looking all over.

I was just about to give up,

and I was over

by your old place,

and suddenly I hear

this little bell.

I thought, wait a minute! I looked

in your neighbor's window...

...and I saw this a**hole

sitting right on the couch.

I said,

"You are coming with me,

"even if you don't want

to go back with her."

Oh, he fought you, huh?

Yeah, he fought me pretty hard.

Wow.

But I'm just glad that I

could make this reuniting.

What a surprise this is, huh?

What a surprise, huh?

Look at where you are!

This was never your cat, was it?

No.

Goddamn it. Put him in the box.

Put him in the box!

Can you put him back?

Do I have a lot of choice?

Can you make sure he's got

lots of water?

Just don't.

He likes to snuggle.

Don't make me put the

cat down and punch you.

It's no use

We're gonna have to fight

You've thrown your words

'round a thousand times

Like a child

who can't empathize

You don't speak the language

You don't read my signs

You wanna know

what I really think?

You wanna know

what I really believe?

There's a fire

burning up in here

See the smoke

coming out of my ears

Oh, no, we both know

More trouble's gonna find us

if we're all alone

I wanna show you

what I really mean

But you're always

on the outside looking in

Oh, won't you

come into my head?

Come inside,

lie down in my head?

Oh, won't you

come into my head?

I just wanna have you

up in my head

Look through my eyes

I'm your binocular

And every time you'll get

a shock you'll learn

What's it like to be

in my dimension

I'll be the center

of your attention

Listen to all the sounds I hear

The quiet prose and

the crack of the snare

Make your mark on my territory

Carve your name in every cavity

Oh, no, we both know

More trouble's gonna find us

if we're all alone

I wanna show you

what I really mean

But you're always
