Scenes with Crockett 91

What's your fantasy relationship, Crockett? Wham, bam, thank you, ma'am, then the chick turns into a TV set so you can watch Monday Night Football?

Crockett

So glad I got this assignment. You're such a nice person.

Crockett

Every time I hear one of you rock stars start crying the blues about that lonely life on the road, it makes me want to throw up.

I suppose you know all about it.

Crockett

No, I don't know nothing. I'm just a dumb cop.

Crockett

You can't really be worried about a bunch of hookers on cassette?

They're not all prostitutes. You said so yourself.

Crockett

You think hookers on a video-dating service is my idea of a hot date?

Maybe I'll sign up myself.

Crockett

Now there's an idea.

Maybe you should send her roses.

Crockett

Hell, I'll be lucky if I'm not sued. I can see the headlines now; "Undercover cop slugs innocent woman after assault with sex toy."

Crockett

What the hell was all that about?

Business as usual. God, I'd forgotten how odious it can all be.

Crockett

Yeah, you won't get an argument out of me, but that's not what I'm talkin' about.

Crockett

Well, at least they caught my good side, my chivalrous side — if a bit Neanderthal.

A bit? How much worse does it get?

Crockett

Okay, one more time. I'm really sorry.

I know. And I love you, Sonny, but this is drivin' me stark ravin'.

Crockett

I didn't know it was so important to you. I mean, the-the music I understand, but the-the business side..

It's not.. It is. Look, I despise all the phony crap that goes with it, but I have to put up with it, because it allows me to do the work that I love to do best. I'm a singer. I could sing in the shower for myself, but I get so much more satisfaction when people can hear me. To get airplay, I have to co-operate with the business people.

Crockett

You have the right to remain silent.

GWGordon Wiggins

Don't tell me you're a cop! That's disgusting.

Crockett

Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.

WWiggins

Can't we discuss this like civilized human beings?

Crockett

You have the right to an attorney. If you can't afford an attorney, one will be provided for you.

How do you feel?

Crockett

About finding him?

Yeah.

Crockett

Frankel, a couple of nights before Hackman killed him, we stopped into this bar on the way home and Frankel saw a guy in there he'd been trying to put away a couple times on rape charges. The guy had beaten him both times. Frankel said he wanted to take him out in the alley and beat the living hell out of him. He said he figured if he felt that way, maybe he had a year left in him as a good cop. I promised myself I'd quit before I got to that point. I hope it's not happening.

FHFrank Hackman

Looks like we're even.

Crockett

Even? No. Not even close.

HHackman

I guess I'm busted. You enjoying your stay on the island? How do you like the place? Took me a few weeks to get everything set up, you know. I had to figure out where I wanted to retire, find a house, furnish it, get some of my stuff sent down. I'd hate to leave. I'm just getting comfortable.

Crockett

Get up.

HHackman

I'm afraid I got other plans, Crockett. Plans I made with the local judge and the police, which involve their pensions. See, I'm really a very altruistic guy.

Crockett

Get up.

HHackman

No way. No way, I sure as hell know the same way you couldn't let an innocent man be executed, that you can't shoot an unarmed man.

Crockett

(Shoots him) Wrong.

JHJimmy Hagovitch

Maybe we could deal together.

Crockett

Ah, I don't think so. I don't deal with dirty cops.

HHagovitch

Look who's talkin'. You're good, Crockett. But you're not that good. You start 'em up.

Crockett

Name's Burnett.

HHagovitch

Yeah, whatever.

Crockett

That's B-U-R-N-E-double T.

Crockett

Did I miss something?

CCeleste

Where you been? I've been waiting for you.

Crockett

Business, darling.

CCeleste

Nobody keeps me waiting. Nobody.

Crockett

So have another bottle of Champagne. Maybe you'll think I was on time.

CCeleste

You bastard. You're nothing but a punk in a silk suit!

Sonny, don't you recognize me?

Crockett

Uh, you're Cooper.

Sonny, it's me, Rico.

Crockett

Rico?

Yeah.

Crockett

Yeah. Yeah, sure. I know you. You're Tubbs.

Yeah.

Crockett

And you're a cop.
