Training Day Page #6

This is chess, not checkers!

What'd you think?

We'd roll up in a black and white?

Slap the cuffs on him?

He's a high roller, dog.

- Take the money.

- I'm not taking it.

- Just take it.

- No!

Look, I don't give a f***, but

the boys'll feel better.

F*** their feelings!

Jake, we're a team.

A team?

You guys are f***ing insane.

I'll go back to the Valley,

I'll cut parking tickets.

- It can't be like this.

- It is.

I'm sorry, but it is.

It's ugly, but it's necessary.

I became a cop to put away

dealers and criminals, not to be one.

You sound just like me.

I know what you're

going through and feeling.

- You're scared.

- I'm not.

Yes, you are. Everyone goes

through that the first time. I did.

The sooner you match

what's in your head...

...with what's in the real world...

...the better you'll feel.

In this business...

...you gotta have dirt on you

to be trusted.

When all this is behind you, a whole

other world will open up for you.

I walk a higher path, son.

I have the keys to all the doors.

What do you mean?

My guys aren't leaders, they're clowns.

You're a leader.

You want my job?

You got it.

You want to lock up poisoners?

This is the place to do it.

But you gotta take your time.

You'll make detective,

you'll grow wise.

And then you can change things.

But it's gotta be from the inside.

Let's go downtown to the station.

Talk to my guy, Stan.

He'll go through what you

gotta say to the D.A.

What are we doing now?

I told an informant I'd take care

of his family for him.

Bring them food, stuff like that.

Gotta help out the family.

Believe it or not,

I do try to do some good.

You know where you're at, dog?

The f*** you looking at?

Hey, we got some things

for the family.

Kitchen's this way.

Put it on the counter.

- Where's the head?

- Right through.

I'm gonna go to the head.

Two seconds, we're gone.

Hey, let me get the CD player.

No, the CD player's mine.

Dreamer! Come here!

Count that sh*t, all right?

Thanks a lot, I was busy.

Learn how to count, f***ing math whiz.

- You looked!

- I didn't.

You calling me a cheater, se?

Deal again, Sniper.

You play cards, cop?

No, not really.

Want a beer?

Have a cold one.

No, thanks, I'm good.

Come on, sit down.

Play a card game with us.

Don't be rude, se. You're a guest.

Why don't you play one hand?

Don't worry, we ain't betting money.

We gotta roll in a second.

Alonzo's taking a sh*t.

All right, I'll play one hand.

Is this five-card draw?

Yeah, jokers are wild.

Why don't you tell us something?

How long you been a pig?

My bad. My bad.

I meant a police officer.

I've been a pig for 19 months.

Is that right? You like it?

I should've been a fireman.

One more.

- What you got, dog?

- Three of a kind.

I didn't get sh*t.

Boo-ya, baby!

Two pair!

What the f***?

He won.

I got two pair!

Three of a kind beats two pair,

you f***ing dumb truck.

You're f***ing stupid.

Take your medication.

Seriously. I know I'm number one.

See why we don't play for money?

Because of this vato.

- Show me your cohete.

- What?

Your gun, homes.

Underneath your shirt.

What is it,.380 stainless?

- 9mm Beretta.

- Like that?

- Just like it.

- Yeah?

Here's the problem.

I seen this one.

I want to see yours.

Come on, se,

I ain't gonna shoot nobody.

Let me check it out.

Learn that in the Academy?

Neat trick.

This is nice.

Nice.

You could f*** a vato up with this.

What you do is, you aim like that.

I'm just playing.

Yeah, I gotta go.

Alonzo!

Kick back and party.

Ain't nothing out there for you.

What are you talking about?

Hey, white boy.

If you ask me homes,

that's just, of course, if you ask...

...Alonzo played you, se.

Big time.

Wait, where you going?

It's your deal.

It's all there.

- Sure?

- You can count it yourself.

Alonzo pulled off a miracle.

Times are tight.

Scared up a lot of cash.

Who'd he jack, homes?

I don't know.

He jacked Roger.

Blasted that fool.

Alonzo's a low-down, ruthless vato.

But I like that.

That's why I never shake his hand.

He don't respect nada.

Know what the money's for?

Alonzo, he's a hothead.

Last week in Vegas, some Russian

starts talking sh*t.

Alonzo, he just snapped.

Beat his ass to death.

Turns out, that Russian,

he's a somebody.

Now, Alonzo's into the Russians

for a million.

How do you know that?

Alonzo has until tonight to pay up.

But he's still on their list.

Nobody thought he could

get the cash.

Good thing he did.

They're looking for him.

If he don't turn up downtown with

the cash by midnight...

Your vato...

...he's dead.

Hey, pig.

Ever had your sh*t pushed in?

Simple question.

- No?

- No.

- Had my sh*t pushed in.

- Yeah, man.

I had my sh*t pushed in, bro!

Big time!

Smiley?

Sure, I always get love

from the homeys.

You guys f***ed him up!

Go next door.

Get the f*** out of here!

You f***ed up.

You're under arrest!

For being a cop, dogging me

in the mouth in my own pad.

You got the right

to be b*tch-slapped!

Drag him to the tub.

Punk motherf***er!

Raid his ass!

Do it!

It's gonna be loud.

Let me get his money.

- Wait.

- Hurry up.

Smiley, check it out.

Is that your little cousin?

- What's this?

- I found it!

- Who had it?

- I found it!

Where?

I found it in MacArthur Park!

MacArthur Park!

Wait up, I can't even see.

Shut the f*** up!

Get in your last prayer.

Listen to me, man.

She was being raped.

Two crackheads were attacking her...

...and I stopped them!

I swear to God!

- You're lying to me!

- I am not lying!

She was being raped!

I stopped them!

Please! I got a kid.

- Shut up, fag!

- Blast his ass.

I have a little girl!

Do it!

I'm gonna get to the bottom of your

bullshit. She's my cousin, homes.

Ain't right involving her.

You f***ed up.

If you're lying to me...

...I blow your balls off.

- Hello.

- Hey, Letty.

- What's up?

- Hey, Smiley.

Just doing homework. You want Tony?

No, I want you.

- You go to school today?

- Yeah.

- You didn't ditch?

- Nope.

I went to every class. Why?

I heard different.

Cops talk to you today?

- No, no.

- All right, Letty...

...don't bullshit me.

I got jumped by two crackheads.

- You got jumped?

- I think they wanted to rape me.

But nothing happened, okay?

Because this cop came.

They almost killed him...

...but he kicked their ass.

Describe him.

He was a white boy.

He looked real young.

- You're okay?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

- Hey, Letty.

- Yeah?

We're not done.

Okay.

What's up?

You gonna blast him?

Vato was telling the truth.

Life's a trip, qu no?

This is some trippy sh*t.

That's for getting my cousin's back.

Cover your head.

You'll mess up my floor.

You know this was just

business, right?

Right?

Right.

What you doing here?

You know you don't belong here.

- What's up?

- Must be lost, motherf***er!

Gonna need more than that

up in here, boy!

You got business here, rookie?

I'm here for Alonzo.

Hey. Is your dad home?

- In the bedroom.

- He's in the bedroom?
