Heart Condition (1990)
These are gonna be great.
Can you imagine if your wife ever found these? Crys, come on. Put down the camera. This is such good shit. Come on, bitch. Crys, come on. Let me take the pictures. I'm gonna fill up the whole scrapbook. Peisha, this is the most fun. Peisha. Oh, shit. Fuck. Crys. Ow! Fuck! Crys. Crys. What's wrong with him? Shit. What's wrong, Crys? What happened? Jesus Christ. Take the girls to the club. I got to call his people. Can't believe I voted for this asshole. It's not about winning ball games. It's about emotion. You know what that is? Emotion? The Lakers are not the Lakers without Rambis. He was the spark, the inspiration. He was white. I didn't say that. But did it ever occur to you that's why they let him go? Rambis left on his own. Is that a brew in that bag? - On his own? - Yeah, on his own. - Read the paper. - Oh, come on! Christ, Moony, we're on duty. And that shit you're eating... ...is sixty percent grease. - He got one. - Dillnick? I don't believe it. Miss? Excuse me, miss? You talking to me, Elvis? Oh, shit. What kind of action you looking for? Well, I was kind of hoping you could tell me. Translation, he doesn't know. Now, she's gonna stick her balloons through the window. Magic fingers are 20. Fifty puts the pig in the blanket. You want something oral, see your dentist. Did you see what he was wearing tonight? He wasn't wearing that striped thing, was he? So, what? Looking for something kinky? Wanna hear the chef's special? No, I'm sure whatever you do will be fine. Hope you have lots of raincoats cause I don't ride bareback anymore. We're meeting him at the Bowl? Yeah, sounds like we better hurry. O - oh. Nice jacket. Seersucker makes me hot. Just relax. Just let me take control. You'll love it, believe me. Stone. C'mon, Moon, forget him. We gotta meet Dill. Moon, leave him alone. Ah, Jesus. Promotions are next week. He's speeding. Being a cop's like being a pitcher, Harry. To hit the strikes, you've got to... ...risk your balls. For what, Moon? What is this? This is initiative, I'm showing initiative. No, this is harassment. There's something perverse about you and Stone. - Perverse? - Yeah, perverse. It wasn't his fault she left you. - Yeah? - Yeah. Bullshit! Hollywood, this is 71. Dillnick's making a Redi-Whip delivery to the parking lot at the Bowl. Can somebody take her off his hands? Thanks. Tell them to take their time. Phil, get the champagne. Have a staff member find his body in the morning. Police can notify his wife. Washington wants full damage control. Understand? Sure you can handle these girls? It's my business. It's your business if you don't. Graham. This is out of our league, Jack. It's also out of our jurisdiction. Come on, we're in Beverly Hills. Nice suit. It's okay, it's okay. He's just picking up her and her girlfriend. He's their lawyer. They don't look safe to drive. Get fucked, pal. - Getting strange. - Lighten up, okay. - Be cool, now. - What? I didn't say anything. Ah. - Stone! - Somebody's calling you. Stone! What?! What, what, what? - Zara, come on! - What the hell are you doing? - You out of your mind? - Move over! I'm gonna drive. - She couldn't handle herself. - You said you were gonna quit. I want a promotion, Moon, not a goddamn suspension. - He's running, Harry. - Well, you shot at him! He's dirty. I know he's dirty! I'm finally gonna nail his black ass to the wall. If you have any drugs in your purse would you please just throw them out the window? I don't believe you. I could be disbarred for this shit. Leon! Give me the purse... Hold the girls and get some backup. Oh, Moon. Moon. Ah, Jesus. Stay put. Stone! Move. Move. Fuck. Well, it's about time. Now, look, I'm a lawyer, alright? And, this is a clear-cut case of harassment. For the past six months this poor excuse for a police off... Are you gentlemen gonna keep this mad dog off me, or what? Thank you. Alright, look. I don't know what the problem you have with... Jesus, what the hell have you been eating? Your ass, nigger. You called him the "n" word? You left Dillnick with a car date at the Hollywood Bowl. Fired your weapon without cause at a private club. Participated in a high-speed car chase. Then, you decked a black lawyer in front of a hundred people and called him the "n" word? I made the arrest. You made squat, Moony. And I am sick and tired of your street cowboy attitude and your racist bullshit. But let me try and get through to you, Moony. There are those of us who can say the "n" word. And there are those of us who cannot. Now, I can say the "n" word. Nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger. See, I can say the damn word all I want. But, you can't. In fact, Moony, if I catch your little-perverse-bigoted- bullshit mouth saying it again I'm going to personally tear you out a new asshole. Is this going to affect my... ...promotion evaluation? Promotion? You are suspended, Sergeant. Leave your piece and your shield with Rinselle on the way out of here. Call him the "n" word and want a promotion. Sorry, Moon. Did you do it? Moon? - You doing okay? - Yeah You don't look so good. Thank you. What was this all about tonight? Is he pimping for you now? I don't deserve that, Moon. Neither does he. What were you doing? I didn't tell you I finished night school finally and I got my application into Valley Arts College and I saved up all the tuition... What? I don't know why I keep forgetting to drop this off. Every time I'm near your house, it's not the right time. Jesus Christ! Why do you have to keep doing that? - I need it. - For what? Self-defense. From what? Why do you carry a gun? I'm a cop! Yeah, well, I'm not. Do you still have the fishbowl? Yeah. Can you put this in there with the others? And, like, if something happens to me have them print it up. You know, like, sprinkle them over Hollywood Boulevard like ashes? - Coming? - Yeah. Crys. Bye, Moon. Because I love you so. Because I love you so. Come here, here you go. Come on now. That's yours, yeah, that's yours. Okay, you can have some of that, too, alright? Hey, come here. Look at that. Come out of here. There you go. You want some of this? Just a bit. There you go. Yeah, I know. Glad to see you, too. Get out of here, will you? I'm trying get myself a life. Get out. That's it, Chuck, you don't get any more. Well, maybe just a little. Chuck! Ah! Eh! Gah! Ah! Ah! Chuck. What are you saying? That's it? He's dead? He will be. Without a new heart. And the odds of finding a B - positive donor... - Dr. Posner. - Excuse me. - He was a cop? - Vice. How the hell did he get in that kind of condition? Vice. Sad news for the State of California and the nation. Senator James Marquand, one of the most respected leaders on Capitol Hill is dead at 54. Found by a staff member in his Bel Air home this morning the author of the new anti-drug legislation is believed to have died from heart failure The President described Marquand as a true gentleman a brilliant statesman... Okay, which one of you guys said the Hail Mary? - The donor's condition? - It was a car accident. Severe trauma to the head and lower back, severed brain-stem. Otherwise, the guy's a cream puff. - His form's in order? - We got him on file. He had it marked on his license. Anything medical? This guy's squeaky clean about everything but his occupation. - Pusher? - Close. - Proctologist? - Getting warmer. Don't tell me he's a lawyer. Yeah. But don't sweat malpractice. He's too dead to sue. - Shit, turn that down. - I got it. - Okay, he's asleep, come on. - You sure he knows? - It's only been a few weeks. - Doctor told him yesterday. Everything, right? Yeah, everything, now will you come on? - You got it on him? - It won't stand up. - Then, prop it up. - You sure he knows, Harry? He knows, he knows. Harry? One, two, three, four. Can't get enough of you, babe Can't get enough of you Oh, darling Can't get enough of you, babe Can't get enough of you Can't get enough of you babe All I want is you, babe Don't you know it's true What the fuck is this? Oh, shit. He doesn't know. Moony, stop! Come back here! Mo... Posner said he was gonna tell you, Moon. We didn't know. Moon! Jack, what do you think you're doing out of bed? You put it in. Now, you take it out! Wanna tell me where he had it? I want you to exercise, Jack, or you can throw these ten months of rehab out the window, understand? No drinking, no smoking, no fatty foods. No more roundups, no more drug busts no more asinine car chases. You're a desk sergeant now, a career-paper jock. You got it? Yeah, I got it. I didn't want to take you back, Moony. Central made me. Just because we got the same color heart don't go thinking we're blood. Hey, Moony, starting to walk with a little rhythm. - Funny. - Hey, Moondog. Nice tan, Moony. They say the heart's not the only new equipment you got. You wish. Um, Terri. Did you ever locate Crystal Gerrity? She's the carrot top Detective Zara was checking out. Detective Zara? Yeah, Harry, she's a hooker, right? He said she'd picked up a couple of speeding tickets near Malibu. Right, about six months ago. The addresses she gave on both citations were phony. Zip on the Peisha chick, too. They're out there, but nobody knows where. Could you run it through the machine for me again? Well, anything's possible for a little of your honey. You got a dirty mind. Now, that was all Harry's idea, Jack. If he's gonna ride with you you got to get him to get rid of those stripes. Ever since that night at the Bowl he thinks that that's his lucky jacket. Shit. Well, we got to go. Yeah, go. Later. Yeah. Harry. Let me see your shield. Come on. Looks nice. Looks real good on you. Thanks. - Keep the change. - Thanks. Don't eat that. Clogs the arteries. It makes your breath stink. Listen, ass... Trust me. Now, look, look. I wasn't even gonna say anything, you know. I tried to give you a chance to get into the groove. As bad as those Camels are, I was willing to let a few go by. But when you start shoving this dog meat into your face I'm sorry, I just have to step in. I have to do something. Now, put it down. Put it down. Moony, put it down. Put it down. Didn't you listen to the doctor? Don't you know what this shit does to your heart? Moony, look, you're looking very stupid now. You are dancing with a cheeseburger. We can do this all day, okay? But you look real silly dancing around with a cheeseburger. The only person that can see me is you. What's up with that guy? You know, you can't get away from me. This is a very good-looking car. I mean, this is absolutely fabulous. Has it ever been washed? It's weird, I know, it's weird. I'm not used to it myself. It's kind of like that out-of-body, you know astral-projection, Shirley Maclaine thing. I mean, one minute I'm sitting in the front seat of my car and I'm dying, next thing I know, boom! I'm standing in the operating room looking at myself while they're pulling my heart out of me. I mean, it was like that... what's the name of that movie? Oh, this is very good, this is good. Going back and forth is good because it stimulates the heart. It makes you a lot strong. Are you listening to me? You are listening to me. Wait a minute. You're ignoring me. I didn't want my heart in you any more than you wanted my heart in you. If I knew my heart was gonna be inside a piece of racist scum like you, I never would've donated it. But that's okay, you know, because life's a bitch. And then you die, you know? It's true, isn't it? Hey. But, I didn't die! I was murdered! I didn't get a real good look if it was a Cutlass Sierra or... But I did get a real good look at the driver. Before he ran me off the road. - Moony, you okay? - Yeah, I'm fine. Wait a minute! Aren't you gonna talk to me? I thought you wanted to be a detective. I thought you wanted that gold shield. This is your opportunity. Now are you gonna talk to me? No! I'm gonna prescribe a little medication, Jack. Nothing serious. Just something to calm your nerves. Help the hallucinations. I take these every once in a while. Hoping my wife will disappear. But you mean that this is a normal thing? Oh, sure it is. This could be perfectly normal. A psycho-chemical aberration of some kind. We're just beginning to learn how transplants affect the human body and mind. Take a couple of days off. You'll feel much better. Is that tranquilizer working yet? Say yes. You want to wind up in a mental institution? - Jack? - Yes! Yeah, it's working fine. It's okay. Jesus! Chuck! Personally, I think that this racism this refusal to acknowledge me stems from feelings of inadequacy. You look at me. What do you see? Someone college-educated. Damn good-looking, hung like a Shetland pony And you feel threatened. Am I hitting a nerve? Come on, Chuck. Oh, I see, you can talk to the cat, but you can't talk to me. Get out of the way, shit-head. Oh-h! You can talk to me. Thank you. Racial prejudice I can understand, but ghost prejudice? An entirely new concept. As a matter of fact, I think you're breaking new ground in this area. Hey! Close the door. I can't. The only thing I can move is you. Shit. It's hard to believe Cry could live in a pigpen like this. How long was it for, huh? A month or two? Four. Four? She wasn't hooking when she was living with me. Yeah, probably too busy cleaning, huh? You won't go away, will you? Well, best as I can figure, I go where you go. As long as that heart's beating we're attached. Which is why you won't be eating that bacon, that chili, that... polish sausage? Look, go to hell! That's what I'm trying to avoid. Look, Moony, you don't have to like me. You are gonna to live with me. Whatever problem you had with me because of Crys leave it behind you, because you're gonna need me if you want to help me find... Find her? Yeah. What do you know? Only what happened the night I was killed. She have something to do with that? Yeah, she and Peisha work for this big-time gangster. Called himself John Graham. He dealt strictly to the upper classes, you know, drugs, girls. Yeah, yeah, I know. Pimp to the stars. Sounds like your kinda client. Say, say, don't go there, alright? I represent the girls, not their employers. Anyway, Crys calls me from the Country Club. Said she had legal trouble and asked me to pick her up. You give all your clients that kinda service? - Well, she was upset. - Is that why you hit her? I was upset. - Oh, you were both upset. - Yeah, we were both upset! Why don't you wash your dishes here? - Why did you run from me? - What? Come on, you're dead now. Peisha was holding some crack that she got... - I knew it! - You knew what? Lucky son of a bitch! - If I'd have caught you. - Couldn't catch my mother. Probably got my heart attack from you. Had I known, I would've surren... Can ghosts get colds? - I'm allergic to cats. - But you're dead. It's psychological. - What's so funny? - A hypochondriac spook. Ow! Ow! What the fuck was all that about? Now we're even. This guy who allegedly ran you off the road. You here or not here? Yeah, I'm here. What was his name? Teller, he was the muscle you saw with the girls at the club. If he ran you off the road, they think you know something? The legal problem Crys called you about maybe it was drugs. Nah. I don't think so. It was something more, something bigger. I tried to find out from the girls but they wouldn't talk. At least, not that night. I didn't make it to the next morning, so... It's just on the left here. Turn at the next corner. This is Century Luxury Villas. These things start at almost a mil, huh? Yeah, so? Fix your collar and try not to act like a cop. Shit. How much were you pulling down a year? The mortgage on a place like this has gotta be what, six grand a month? That's my lizard pot. He's got my lizard pot. With tax, you're looking at 85 grand a year! Hey, you got a pool! He's got my lizard pot. He's got my cactus. Hey, that's my... Where you going with... This is a lot of money. This is a lot of money. Where are you going with my cactus? - What's going on here? - Well, it's open house. "All furniture and effect and objet d'art may be purchased. " Oh, mama, no. I left you the house. I didn't tell you you could sell it. Well, what else is the old lady gonna do with it? Fuck you, too. It's Sterling. Actually, I was more interested in the picture. You can take all the pictures if you like. In fact, I'll pay you to get rid of this harem. My mother's a church-going woman, so watch what you say. Hello, Mommy. When I think of all the in-and-out that went on in here. Not one grandchild to show for it. Well, I was planning on settling down. He always said he was planning on settling down. Does this hump pen look like he was settling down to you? Hump pen? This place has style. His idea of style was my idea of obscenity. I want to unload everything to do with it. But not at K-Mart prices. - Do you know this woman? - Do I know you? - I'm a cop. - You look it. I told you to fix your collar. I'm trying to locate this girl, Crys Gerrity. I was wondering, could I look through your son's Rolodex? You can have my son's Rolodex. What? But, don't ask me about his women. Have you seen her since your son's accident? A cop got his heart, you know? - He knows. - I know. - His name is Moony. - I know, yeah, so's mine. She cried almost as much as I did at the funeral. Such a pretty girl. Held my hand most of the day. The last time I saw her was when she came by here to pick up a few things. It was near Thanksgiving time, I think. - You know where she was going? - She didn't say. She just drove off with that slick man in his red Ferrari. Yes, this is John Graham. Any messages? Jackson who? Moony. What's that? Is that a scratch? Can you buff that out, please? And, use the toothbrush on the wheels. If you wanna get to Graham, you gotta trust me. Listen, asshole. I've been insulted by the car park guy, the guy at the door... We're not leaving, Moony. This may be fun to you, but I'm damned if I'm gonna pop for another three-dollar tea bag. - Will you keep it down, please? - No. If I don't hit the can soon... Moony, the man is smart. He has an answering service instead of a direct line. Now, would you rather him call you back at the police station or a place that makes him feel more comfortable like the Beverly Palm Hotel? Call for you, Mr. Moony. Alright, remember. Howard Steadman is your best friend. Tip him a deuce. Two dollars. Tip him a deuce for the phone. Thank God nobody can see me. Jackson Moony. Jackson Moony, John Graham. Sorry to pull you away from the pool on such a delicious day but I got your message on my service. And I don't believe we've ever met. I'm from New York. Actually, I'm here on business. Howard Steadman said that you had a redhead named Crystal that you might be able to put me in touch with. It's a possibility. Can you fix me up tomorrow night? Well, as you probably know, Howard's in Yugoslavia working on his picture, so it's impossible for me to cross-check your reference. Would it help if I mentioned his nights of leather in Palm Springs? Crys said they were into gymnastics. You must be very good friends. You're working tomorrow night. That's all we could find on him. No address, no priors. Name's probably phony. Okay, thanks. This Graham's gonna be hard to find. That's why you gotta keep your date with her. You're dreaming! The guy deals with high rollers. I can't afford lunch. Where am I gonna get that kind of money? Or class? What the fuck's that supposed to mean? You think I got no class, huh? You think wearing an Italian suit gives you class? It gives you nothing, nothing. He see his doctor? Yesterday. He said Posner gave him some new medication. Doesn't seem to be working. Why don't you get off my back? Just get off my back! Go on, get the fuck off! Better keep an eye on him. Christ! What is it with you? Jesus! Let me know what he's up to. Shit. A bowling alley? I didn't know you people did this. Yeah, and we swim, too. Now, look, just relax, alright? We're here to pick up pocket change. You're with the owner. The what? The owner, you think I got rich defending hookers? You know what the cash return is on a pair of bowling shoes? We're on our way back to the pin setters. Loosen up. Two drink minimum if you don't bowl. Yeah, that's right. There's a two drink minimum. There's nothing wrong with making a little profit. Now say hello to Bubba. Ask him how his mother is. Order a couple of beers. Hello, Bubba, how's your mother? She died last summer. Well, I'm a little behind. I'll take a couple of beers. Which way to the pin setters? Stone! Every one of these mothers is a Black Panther hungry for white meat. I'm gonna wind up dish of the day. What are we doing here? See that hole over there? The one that looks like a duck? Yeah. - You feel a pipe in there? - Yeah. Alright, pull it out. Yeah, that's it. Jesus! My emergency cash reserve. How much is in here? Two hundred thousand dollars. And I'm the only guy who was ever able to take it with him. - Don't want your beers? - Have a beer. - Yeah, maybe just one. - Yeah, one beer. - Can I help you? - It's my brother Archimedes. You find what you were looking? - Nice guy, I left him the bar. - A few balls, a couple of pins. Here it is. How do they know about my stash? Maybe a hundred and fifty grand? How did you know 150? I left $200,000. It's supposed to be two hundred thousand. Oh, I see, you steal from your own brother. You own. Your flesh. You know, Ma said you was... you know, if I wasn't dead, I'd... Hit him one time for me, would you? Did you know that this is extortion money? That your brother was about to be brought up on Federal charges when he died? Yo, slap him one time for me. I could walk out of here with this evidence Or, I can walk out of here with this evidence and you. It's your choice, Archimedes. Right. Hold it, hold it, wait. What? Oh, shit! Jesus! Get him out of there! - That was the most stupid... - I'm sorry. Just start... let's go! Go, go, go! You want to tell me what the hell that was all about? I was talking to a friend of mine the other day. I hate to drop names. I said, "Bobby. " Well, that's Bobby DeNiro, but that's beside the point. "Bobby, the thing is this. " Listen, what time is it? It's time for you to get your big-fat extra - crispy - bucket -o'- chicken two - liter - pepsi - cola - drinking ass out of bed, that's what time it is. Allez, allez! We must exercise! Come on, Jack, let's go! One, two, three, four! Come on, Jack. Your public is waiting. Public my ass. It'll be your ass if you don't get up. We have to go downtown, exercise, we have to get suits. Get your black ass out of here, will you? "Get your black ass out of here" I like that, get down, brother! Give me five! Alright! There's five. Fuck off! Shit! Hey. I never knew there were so many hills in Hollywood. Fuck off! Come on, come on, look at me! I'm running circles around you. You're supposed to be a cop? Is this L.A.'s finest, huh? - I'm a cop! - Yeah, yeah! Oh, well! Get the fuck out of here! Shit! Good afternoon, sir. He bought a $80,000 Mercedes-Benz with cash? It's not the Jack Moony I know. I don't know what he's doing. Huh, whatever he's doing, it's got to be illegal. Ow, we better get ready. They're dropping Crys off at eight. Is she really gonna like this stuff? Ah, she never seemed to mind 'em on me. Oh, come on, Moony. Look, we fooled around, alright? She took some pictures, that was the end. It wasn't serious. I was a single guy. You heard my mother. Last thing I needed or wanted was to be tied down. What you gotta face, is that she left the old Jack Moony. This isn't the same girl who was on the street dating cops and eating cheeseburgers. - She's a different woman now. - Same job. Didn't she tell you about going to art school? Huh. It was a pipe dream, you saw her stuff. Oh, and we're art critics now, huh? You know, you see a kid fishing in a mud puddle is that any reason to take away his pole? People have dreams, Moony, they have ambitions and when she tells you about her dreams, you gotta respect them. I always listened. Yeah? I listened. Alright, alright. What's the name of her dog back home? Huh, huh. Henry. How many sisters does she have? Two, Lisa and Joanie. What's her favorite movie? Rambo. Rambo? Pinocchio. And I knew all of that in the first half-hour. You see? That's why she left Ohio, Moony. Nobody listened. Nobody took her seriously. You're wondering why she left you.? I kept her off the streets. Yes, by wrapping her up so tight, she couldn't move. You wanna keep everybody in little boxes don't ya? You want to keep me in the ghetto, Crys back at home. Even that knucklehead Wendt. You tell me that you don't resent him being your superior. Yeah, you can't, can you? We're all like the film in the goldfish bowl at home. You wanna keep us all there where you can see us, don't you? You don't want it to be developed. Know how much that costs to process? Hey, it costs to go to art school. It costs to be a lawyer, costs to be a fucking detective. Some of us are willing to pay the price, Moony. Hey, there's nothing to be scared of, Moony. Nobody's out to get you. You don't have to be scared that we're all gonna leave you. Would you like something from the bar? - Yeah. - Ask her first. - What do you think? - A glass of wine. - Wine list, a couple of Evians. - The wine list and two Evians. The wine list. I didn't know you knew what Evian was. Bottled water. I'm learning. What are you doing? Is this some kind of a setup? - What do you mean? - Are you gonna bust me? For what? Bein' beautiful? Touche. Did you process any of my film? Why? Wondered. It's still in the goldfish bowl. Good. Nice suit. Yeah. Polished fingernails? Didn't I tell I knew what a woman likes? You can't afford that on a cop's salary. Oh, I, uh, I came into some money. How? Oh, shit, how? Don't tell me it's an inheritance. No, she's too smart for that. Tell malpractice. Malpractice. Your heart surgery. Yeah, they stitched me up with a sponge inside. Good, good. Judges like that one. So then you quit the force and bought Italian suits? - Right, yeah. - I don't believe that. Yeah, neither do I. Okay, maybe you better go and call Teller. That's dangerous. - I don't want to. - Lucky. - How's Chuck? - He's fat. I would like to tempt you with the specials before you decide. For appetizer, we have a shitake mushroom on the salmon dim sum dumpling in a red currant sauce. Oh, Salmon dumplings in currant sauce. Are you still puttin' bourbon in his milk? No. We're both reformed men. That's too bad. There is also a special poached scallop with taro over a bed of squid ink fettuccine with a ginger root sauce... Yeah. Do you remember your tablecloth? Yeah. Well, I had it cleaned and mended. You didn't have to do that. No, you remember the Armenian lady next door? Mrs. Arkmanian. Yeah. You remember. Ha-ha. Ha-ha. Well, she saw the, um, you know... Embroidery? Yeah, well, she said that was, that was really good. Then a duck feet, dim-sum style this over a bed of arugula with a spicy-rice vinegar. - Is he serious? - He's serious. And finally we have, eh... egg roll with eh... - s - shredded squid. - "Squeed. " Shred-ed squid. S - shred - ed squid, eggplant, fresh stalk fennel salmon, ground oysters... Excuse me. What the hell do you think you're doing? - Back off! - Back off? I didn't make this investment to see you blowing it with that girl... I am not blowin' it! Listen, I thank you for helpin' me find Crys. I thank you for the car, for the hotel, for the clothes. I even thank you for the goddamn nail polish. This is my date and my night. I want you to back the hell off. Oh, I see, I see. I set up the date, buy the clothes. but she makes eye and you don't need me? No! I don't need you anymore. Did it occur to you that she's a pro? Has it occurred to you that I'm paying for this? Yes! Yes, it did. But maybe I wanna pretend, huh? Maybe it's easier for me to pretend. If her ex, whatever you were, is not hangin' over her shoulder - tellin' me to order squid dum-dum. - Dim sum. - Dim sum. - Dim sum. Ask her about what happened that night. Yeah. Yeah, okay, I'm gonna ask her. Where's the waiter? I think he has a few other tables. Uh, yeah. Hey, well... What? What were you gonna say? Um, where you... Of all the places in this city where do you want to eat? Hmm. Magic Johnson... I don't get it. Hmm. I always had to drag you down here. Hey, allow for a little growth. - A little growth. - Ha-ha. I mean, you can only eat so much - S-shredd-ed squid. - S-shredd-ed squid. Before eight-ball and tube steak looks pretty good. So, how we doing? We're down six points. - Moon. - What? Hey. What? - Oh, you playing, huh? - Come on. - Whoa - Hey, you wanna play? O - oh. What do you wanna do? I'll show you. - Yeah, cheater. - Stop it! Stop it. I did not. I didn't. Yes, you did. Is it okay if I take this stuff off? Sure. Whatever you want. Sometimes... I just get so tired of doing everything the hard way. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, oh. Oh God, I missed you. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh. Does it hurt? Nah. Not much anymore. They say that the blood and tissue types have to be an exact match. You and Leon. Blood brothers. Get outta here. Oh, Moon. He was a good guy. You would've liked him. You reminded me of him tonight. Maybe it's his heart. Oh, fuck! What's up? I gotta go home. You know I, I liked your pictures. And all those things you were tellin' me? I was listenin'... Like, I, I know you had a dog named Henry. And a couple of sisters. Lisa and uh... Joanie! Yeah. And your favorite movie is "Pinocchio". Pinocchio? Oh, please... Pinocchio?! What am I always talkin' about? "The Parent Trap!" Moon... So, you're... using my material too, huh? Yeah. Pinocchio. So I lied, sue me. Put out that cigarette. - It's hers. - You smoked it. What else did you see? Enough to know you didn't ask her what happened that night. - I'm workin' up to it. - It is bullshit, Moony. Look, she needs time. This is delicate! I kept my part of the bargain. Asked me to back off, I did! Kept my part of the bargain. You keep yours. You're pissed because we're hittin' it off? Yes! No. Yes. Yeah, no. I'm pissed because the guy who killed me isn't behind bars. You wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me. Not with Crys. Not at the Beverly Palm Hotel, not on this earth. So when she comes back in this room, I want you to ask her. Were you talking to someone? - Room service. - Room service. - Don't order for me, got to go. - Ask her. Can't you stay for breakfast? - It's not me, it's Graham. - Ask her. - Call you at home. - Yeah. - Uh, Crys? - What? That, uh, the night, uh, Stone died. The night I chased you, remember? - Hard to forget. - Mmm, yeah. Did anything happen before he picked you up that might have caused his murder? Oh, shit. - I knew it. - No, Crys... Crys, please. Crys, listen to me. Crys Crys, please! Crys, it's not like that. Listen, Crys. Come on, Moony. Hurry up. She's getting away. So are my pants! Crys. Harry. Harry, I think somethin's going on down there! - Crys! - Come on! Alright, I shouldn't have asked. We should've waited. For what? So you two could have another go in bed? You stayed in the livin' room? Think I'll learn anything watching a white boy? Huh? According to Crys you can. Oh, alright, Superman. Give it your best shot, then. That's it, that's it. You got it, you got it. Mercedes keys. They're all Mercedes keys. Ah, that one! Hey, Moon? Harry? What are you... 93, Roger, code 07. I found it. Bullshit. I inherited it. A bunch of crap. I was given it by a dead ni... Lawyer. To find out who killed him. Good. Didn't know you had it in you. Now, you see how easy that was? Today is my golf day and my foursome tee'd off 20 minutes ago. May be if I hurry, I can catch them on the back nine. - Hold him. - He can't hold you. - You can't hold me. - Hmm, the hell I can't. - Not without bail. - Not without bail. I gotcha, Moony. Maybe not this minute, but I got you. Who got you that hat? I want you in here at eight tomorrow for a full psychiatric examination. And until that time, you are suspended. Yeah, that's why you need. Suspenders. - Now you could leave your ba... - Yeah, my badge. And piece with Rinselle on the way out. Fore! Fuck it. - Why did I listen to you? - We gotta find Crys. - Found her. I blew it. - Doin' this for you. - For me? - For you. You've got me off the force. I'm on my way to a mental institution! - Whoo, nobody's perfect. - Shit! Jack? You okay? Look, I just wanted you to know that I was following you 'cause I was concerned not because of Wendt. Sure, Harry. I mean, you need help, partner. You really do. Yeah. Go home and get some sleep, okay? Yeah. Get the fuck away from me. Get away. What? Chuck, get out of there. You can't order an autopsy report when on suspension. Well, do it in Harry's name. I'll clear it with him. The man was a U.S. Senator. What do I say we're looking for? Cocaine. You know what kind of scandal this could be? It's a cover-up thing, like the Redford movie. We're not gonna find anything in that autopsy report. Right. What's that got to do with finding Crys? She had black spots on the bottom of her feet. - Black spot. Yeah? - Yeah, it's beach tar. You know? Beach tar. There's not a... There's not a lot of beaches up here that have enough to stick. - Yeah? - Right. Now, in police work, that coupled with a Malibu speeding ticket and you've got... You got what? Oh, get the fuck out of here. This is too easy. Wait a minute, remember... No, no. I know what to say. Crys! Shit! - Get out of my life, Moony. - I'm not gonna do that. No, you don't understand. You have to leave, okay? I'm not gonna do that - Turn around and walk away. - Crys, I developed the film. - Why? Why did you do that? - You gave them to me. No, I gave it to you because I knew you wouldn't develop it. - Throw it in the fishbowl. - Until somethin' happened. - Nothin's happened to me. - Yes, it did. You met me. Listen, Marquand died of a drug overdose, right? Yes. Graham killed Stone on a chance that you might have told him. Yes. Do they know about the pictures? That's the only reason we're still alive. Has anyone seen them? No, not yet, but I'm gonna take 'em down. Moon, I know what you wanna do. You can't do it. - What the fuck are you... - Listen to me. Leave. And don't do anything. Please. - Hey, listen to me. - Please, Moon. Crys. Go away! They'll see you. Listen. I can help you get out of this. No! We have a deal. - You got a trap. - He can see us. There's nothing you can do about it. Moon, nothing's the same. You see that? Everything's gone. No, it's not gone. - They'll kill me. - No. I'm an accessory. I'll go to jail. Well, testify for immunity. They'll find me. Look, I can protect you. I don't care what happens to me. Well, who the fuck do you care for? This is my baby. He already lost his father. You want him to lose me, too? Stone? Huh. My God. I was pregnant couple of months before he died. I never told him. Baby. Didn't want it to look like I was trying to force him into something. I want this baby. Hey, Baby. Jesus. You wanted to marry him? Does that make a difference? Oh, Jesus, he's so beautiful! Thank you, baby. Hey Hey, Moon, come on. Come on and hold him for me. You know, tell me how he feels. Come on, Moon. Tell me how he feels, huh? Moon? Hey, Moon, come on, tell me... Hey, Moon, don't do this to me. Come on, tell me how he's... Moony, come on. Tell me how he feels. Hey. Moony. Peisha. Ready to go get some Pampers? Yeah, okay. Crys? Sorry. That's okay, that's okay. Here, let me hold him. - No. - Come on, come on. Oh, yeah Oh, huh. You're a big boy. Yeah, oh. I just got off the phone with Senator Marquand's people. They're very upset with me. Seems that someone from the police department has pulled out the Senator's autopsy file. That wouldn't happen to be a Mr. Moony? The jerk from last night? Did you know he was a cop? Huh? Did you? Did you know he was a cop? Did you know your mommy was one of his old roomies? Huh? Did you? How did you know that? At least that's what Peisha tells me. She's got some very good Mexican brown. I hope she didn't O.D. Phew. You lied to me. What? You never should've left. That's the bottom line, alright? She wanted me to leave or weren't you listening? - The girl needs our help. - No, she don't need mine. The girl's in love with you, asshole. - Fuck off. - Yeah, well, fuck you. She's in love with you. What the hell has that got to do with anything? I'm dead. Like hell you are. Shit. What is this shit? Fucking gotta be some kind of curse. Huh, Me and Rambis, man, fuck. Ha, you work your ass off. For what? Fuckin' what? I'm not good enough for Crys. Even my own heart ain't good enough. Shit. Fuckin' white curse. No, it's not. It's a black fuckin' conspiracy. A what? You, you heard me. You fuckin' people, you creep up around. - What people? Who. - And just suck up to us. You, You make us trust you and then you-all the time. You're robbin' us blind. - Oh, we do that, huh? - You. - Say it, say it. - You, you fuckin'... - Niggers, right? Niger coon. - Yeah. - Chinks, Spics, Kike. - Yeah. Mook. Niggers, Niggers! Niggers. Moon? Moon? Alright, just t-take it easy, take it easy. Moony, that you? I know we've had problems. I don't think rejecting my heart is the answer. You agree? There's other ways we can vent our frustration. We could, we could, we could go to the amusement park. Ah, ride the bumper cars. Play Mike Tyson's video Nintendo. You could be Mike Tyson. You could be Mike Tyson I'll be the white guy. No, I wanna be Mike Tyson. Anyway, we can ice hockey, uh, full-contact karate. We're mature men, aren't we? I think we should just, just chalk this rejection episode up to a learning experience. Something that will never happen again. You do agree? Oh, good. Huh. Ah, that makes me breathe a lot easier. Now we gotta do something about Crys. If Graham's suspicious no telling what could happen. Yeah, we better. We gotta. We gotta get her. Yeah. - Any ideas? - Yeah. Let's not jump to conclusions now. That thing could be keeping us alive. My ass. - Where's the fuckin' phone? - Who you gonna call? Arnold Palmer. What? Are you trying to screw up my entire day? I am rid of you. Shrink's gonna pull you, you'll be out of my life for good. Not crazy? Anyone who would think that a US Senator would O.D. on crack has got to be out of his damn mind. I don't believe it, either. And besides, if you just had an attack, you shouldn't even be on the telephone. Moon. Moon, would you calm, just calm down alright... Look, I will be there. I'm not supposed to take this out of the building. Yeah, I-I remember the night at the Bowl. Moon, don't... Don't tell my mother. Listen, hold on. Okay, I'll do it, yeah. Okay. Oh, and, Moon, um someone named Crystal called and Terri said ah, that she should call you at home, okay? Moon? It's Crys. Peisha and I are in serious trouble, you understand? And I need to see you, please. Oh, Jesus. What is it? What did she say? They know. They're gonna kill her. We're gonna take little Lee up tothe Broke House? It's up past the old-swim club. That used to be Needle Park for the surf set. We'll wait for you there until eight. And after that, I, I don't know what's gonna happen. Tell him about the pictures. You have to bring the pictures. And come alone, Moon. Please, come. I love you. - We got 40 minutes. - Jesus, they got my kid. Call the police. I'd waste 40 minutes trying to make 'em believe me. I'll leave Harry a note. Two three nine, code blue, code blue Two three nine. Grab ten cc's... I think they responded very well to that. Here. Hemorrhoids. Ouch, crude, but funny. Over there. A police car's a little obvious, isn't it? We got thirty minutes. You wanna take a bus? Sure you're gonna be okay? If I'm not, you're gonna be the first to know. The note says he's on his way to Malibu. Excuse me, looking for Jack Moony. Who the hell isn't? Yes, it's written to a guy named Harry. I'm Harry. You friend's lucky to be walking. How do you think he's gonna get to beach? This is a bit more excitement than is called for don't you think? Took the car because he needed it. You think he's gonna ask? Don't think you realize just how serious his condition... - I realize it. - Harry. - Harry, Harry. - Dillnick. What are you doing here? Ah, Moon told me to bring Marquand's autopsy file Know it's not to leave the precinct... - Son of a bitch. - What's going on here? - Holy shit. - What? They never even checked for drugs. Yeah. No, I'm certain I can arrange something for you on Friday. Aha. Yeah. Time check. Ah, quarter to eight. You okay? Yeah. Uh, I'm a little fuzzy. Did she ever read to you? Yeah. Every Sunday morning. The funnies, you know? Yeah? - Yeah. - Yeah, me too. She'd start me out with Doonesbury. Peanuts. Yeah, figures. You should have married her, Moony. Yeah. We both should have. Don't give a damn what Wendt says. Meet me with a chopper. You think he might suspend us, Harry? Being a cop is like being a pitcher, Dillnick. You want your strikes, you gotta risk your balls. It really irritates me when people don't check their answering machines. Well, shoot 'em up. Hold up. - Sit down. - Take it easy. This'll make you feel a lot better. Come on, we're out of here. Just give her half. Oh, God. You realize this is a setup, don't you? Yeah. I realize this is a setup. Well, a good lawyer always makes sure his clients are prepared. Yeah. I'm prepared. You okay? - You be the scout. - I'll be the scout. Hey, Stone. Thanks. Ah, there's nobody here. Shit. Ah, Moon? Sunglasses and an Uzi. Watch my back. You okay? Yeah. Aw, Jesus. This is it. Teller's got Crys and my son. The right side. Graham's on the left. I'll check the side rooms. Moon, I'm sorry. Hi. The side rooms are empty. I'll watch the door. Ain't love grand? Cut the shit, I'm here. Now let the girls go. I'll forget about Marquand and deliver the pictures. Moon, there's one coming up behind you. He's got a big gun. That's the plan I had with the girls. Moon? I don't like to make the same mistake twice. Moon. Hey! Moon. You're dead, I guarantee it. You're dead, you're dead! Moon. Moon, Moon. Crys, come. Quick. Come on. Quick. Come on. You gotta stand up. Come on, pick up the baby! You gotta stand. Come on, pick up the baby. Come on. Moon, Peisha... - Don't worry about Peisha. - She's dead. Let me worry about Peisha, come on. You just worry about little Lee. Come on, honey, come on. Fight it, don't give in to it. Come on. Honey. Let's get out of here! Lean on me. It's okay. It's okay, Lee. Yeah, it's okay, we're going.
