"Today I spoke to Los Angeles Police Commissioner Herman Baldwin." "The fear of crime has deteriorated our community." "It's almost as if we've been struck by enemy bombs." "The number of citizens killed and maimed  has produced in me a great and personal resolve." "The only way we'll win..." "Make no mistake." "This is a war." "The only way we'll win is by assuming the offensive." "Positive policing is the answer." "We've got to deploy all our resources  or criminal violence will destroy our community." "What are the resources needed to diminish the alarming rise in crimes?" "Some say heavier prison sentences and an increased police facility are enough." "I'm one of them." "Others believe that prison never cured anyone." "Judging by the rise in violence, it never deterred anyone either." "Here comes the commercial." "It's your radio station, and I sure like Ms. Nichols, but I can't take this." "It's not my station." "I'm the architect for the new one." " Ms. Nichols is late." " She's still on the radio." "They recorded that earlier." " Hey, there she is now." " Don't be late for dinner." " Your daughter ate well last time." " You're a great cook." " For her, nothing is too much." " We won't be late." " We should be there at 10:30." " We'll make it." "The senator's aide would not get off the phone." "Los Angeles Magazine went for my idea of articles on criminal rehabilitation." "That's great." "Hello, baby." "You look really good." "Hi, Carol." "We're not late, are we?" "Has there been progress this week, doctor?" "She asked for dinner on Thursday night." "That's the fifth week running she's said a few words." "That's not much after two years." "Will she ever come back to me?" "Will she ever be normal again?" "You're her father, Mr. Kersey." "You can only give her your love, and your prayers too." "I remember you liked kites when you were a kid." "You still like them?" "We haven't bought your ice cream yet." "You mean your ice cream." "A man has to have some vices." "But I'll tell you what." "You choose whatever you want from this table, and I'll go buy the ice cream." "Look at him." "What do you think?" "Let's do it." "Out the way, motherfucker." "Out the way." "Watch out, asshole." "Go get your ice cream, man." "Asshole." "That's nice." " Where's my wallet?" " I ain't got it." "When I got to the front of the line, I discovered I forgot my wallet." "This time you two come with me." "But I'll have to borrow some money." "I think we can manage that." "Carol, where've you been?" "I haven't seen you for a while." "I thought you deserted me." "What happened, Paul?" " Nothing." " You didn't forget your wallet." " You never forget anything."

"Who is this delivery from?" "Just her." "No one else here." " We want to give Kersey his wallet back." " Personally." "Hey, man, look at that." "Isn't that pretty?" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "You disturb the neighbors, I'll cut you up and eat you for dinner." "Hey, Jiver, save some for me, man." "Getting her good, Jiver." "Getting her good." "My turn now, man." "You want her?" "Take her into bed." "Jiver, check out the window for the man." "No!" " We can't hang in here forever." " Hey, I want him." "Just be cool, man." "He'll come." "Nirvana, you want a bit?" " Is there any left?" " There's enough." "You wait in here." "Watch for the man." "All right now, lady, quietly." "Do it nice." "Are you hungry?" "Let's see what Rosario has for dinner." "Rosario." "Rosario, we're home." " Stop the whore." " Get her, man." "Let's get the fuck out of here!" "Use the back!" "Take her." "She's seen us." "She can finger us all." "Come on." "Keep moving." "Get in there, girl." "There is only one truth about the use of the death penalty:" "Why do we kill people who kill people to show that killing is wrong?" "Thank you."

"Man, we look all the same to whitey anyway." "He'll never pick you out, Jiver." "I'm gonna fuck you, lady." "You're strange." "Paul!" "Paul?" "Paul, is that you?" "I'm Inspector Mankiewicz." " I know it's a terrible time." " Any news of my daughter?" "No." "As soon as we hear, we'll let you know." "The descriptions you gave the officers about your attackers they're very unclear." "Is there anything that you can add?" "I came in here." "There were two men there and at least two men back there." "One hits me on the head, and I'm unconscious." "Surely you saw one of them before you were attacked." "I told your men everything I know." "We understand a similar thing happened in New York." "We ran it down in our computer." "Yeah, that's right." "Muggers followed my wife and daughter from the market." "The police there got a good description of the muggers." "It didn't do any good." "We do what we can." "One of my men found this on the floor." "If they don't need us, let's go to my place." "They'll be all night." "Mr. Kersey, we just got some news about your daughter." "How is she?" "Is this your daughter, Mr. Kersey?" "Mr. Kersey, is that Carol?" "Get some sleep, darling." "You go on back to bed." "I wanna stay here a while." "I'll be along in a moment."

" I can't believe these prices." " Welcome back." " I see you made a noisy comeback." " Hello." "Go ahead." " I heard you were here." " I was just gonna come see you." "See you tonight?" "Geri, I don't feel like I'm fit company for socializing." "Not yet anyway." "Paul, are you out there?" " Come on back." " Okay." "I was at your office." "They told me you'd be here." "Come look at some mug shots." "See if you can pick out those people." "You know, it happened so fast." "No, I don't think so." "The pictures might jog your memory." "There really isn't any use." "My heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel, is that they might be saved." "We will find in Romans 10:9 and 10 that if thou confess with thou mouth Jesus and believe that God hath raised him from the dead thou shall be saved." "For with the heart..."

"I'm getting bored with the other half." "Geri, I'm gonna be a while." "Go and do what you're gonna do and I'll see you back in the office." "Thanks for calling General Lock Company." "Hello, yes." "I have locks that need changing." "Could you do it for me today, please?" "That's them." "There they are." "Let's go." "You and you, out." "Not you." " You believe in Jesus?" " Yes, I do." "Well, you're gonna meet him." " Mr. Kersey, you wanna join the party?" " No, thanks." " Hello." " You're in." "I've been in all night." " I called." " I haven't been answering the phone." "The newspaper people keep calling ever since..." "I just haven't been answering." "Can I cook dinner for you tomorrow night?" " Friday night's better." " Friday night then." "Okay." "Bye."

"Hold it a minute." "Let me get this straight." "Some guy pops out, he starts shooting, and you don't know what he looks like." "That guy saved our lives, damn it." "Where were you guys, giving out parking tickets?" "Hold them." "All right, lady, what did he look like?" "He was..." "He was..." " He was a very good citizen." " He was a killer." "Now, you wanna stay here forever?" "Play it that way." "You're vital witnesses." "Don't play games with me." "You both saw him." "I want the description." "He's 21, blond, with a clubbed foot." "Funny, from where I was, he was a large black man with a red beard." "Let these guys get me to the hospital or I'm gonna give the press interviews you won't believe." "Take him." "You know what we got here, don't you?" "A goddamn vigilante." "My wife goes to Mace class, would you believe that?" "The police commissioner's wife at Mace class, learning to spray attackers." "Now you tell me there's a vigilante out there." "My God, the lid's only just kept down as it is." "I can see panicked citizens taking to the streets if this gets out." " They'll knock off anyone with long hair." " I think I can find him." "If we investigate, the press will know." "I learn half of what goes on in my own force from the newspapers." "Tell me wasn't there a vigilante in Boston about five years ago?" " New York." " New York." "Right." "See how they handled it." "It stopped there." " Well, what about this report?" "You've..." " I know." "The Los Angeles police has asked for advice on their vigilante situation." "But there's something else you should know, sir." "Paul Kersey now lives in Los Angeles." "You suggesting Kersey's out there killing again?" "Paul Kersey was an interesting man, so I kept a loose tab on him." "He worked in Chicago for a while where he met an old friend who ran a radio station in L. A and he transferred his business out there." "But that doesn't mean that he's the Los Angeles vigilante." " No, sir." " But, Christ, what if he is?" "Yes, sir." "If he is, and if he's caught, the trail leads straight back to us." " We had him, and we didn't prosecute." " For damn good reason." "Street crime was down 50 percent." "Muggers were afraid to go out." "We know we'd have a martyr on our hands if we prosecuted." "But the fact is, we let him go." "If he's caught now, he'll say we let him go." "I'd be disbarred." "It'd be the end of your career, commissioner." "And you, inspector, would not collect your pension." "And I retire this year." "It's simple." "We have to get him before they do." "We?" "You." "Well, I could go to Los Angeles in answer to their request." "I'll try to find out if Kersey's up to his old tricks again." "And if he is, I'll try to stop him quietly." " Kill him?" " Hi, Frank." "Over here." " Mike." "Good to see you." " Frank, welcome to L.A." " Thank you." " Gesundheit." " Thank you." "Is this the file?" "Newspaper clippings and police photographs on Kersey." "Most of them are about how his daughter and his housekeeper were killed by muggers." "Checked out every person who suffered a loss by mugging in the last six months." " How many people did that give you?" " Deaths, 96." "Seriously injured, 1500." "Rapes, 579." "I can go on." "Tie down a lot of men that way." " What did you do?" " We tried that route, but we gave up." "I'm going to the hotel to lie down." "I caught a cold on the plane." " And this smog doesn't help anyway." " You're not holding out on me, are you?" "One cop to another, would I do a thing like that?" "It's all right, Ms. Nichols, I'm a policeman." " How did you get in?" " It comes with the job." "You'd be amazed what they teach us." "What's a New York cop doing breaking into my apartment?" " It's about your friend Paul Kersey." " How do you know him?" " It comes..." " With the job." "He killed nine people in New York City four years ago." " You're not serious." " I'm very serious." " What station are you from?" " West 75th Street." " It won't help calling anybody." " They sent you." "Well, not exactly." " Was he charged with killing nine people?" " He was not." "You see, the people he killed were muggers." "Even though the public never knew who he was, he became a hero." "And there were those that felt we should encourage him to stop, leave it at that." "But now, you see, he's doing it again here in Los Angeles." " There's no one I can call to verify this?" " My chief thinks I'm on vacation." "You break in here, and you tell me you think Paul's a murderer." " What else are you entitled to tell me?" " It'd be better if he stopped." "I asked him once, didn't seem to work." "I think maybe he'll listen to you." "I hardly see him outside of the radio station." "Doesn't it make you wonder what he may be doing at night?" "Hey, mister, got a half-hour to spare?" "What's wrong with you?" "Haven't you got one?" "Fuck you!" " Where have you been?" " I was just out." " Out where?" " I was with a friend." "A man." " What man?" " Calm down." "Where do you think I've been?" "Killing muggers." "You're crazy." "A New York cop broke into my place tonight." "Not that..." "What the hell's his name?" "Frank Ochoa." " Well, he said he talked to you once." " He asked me not to kill muggers." "He told me that." "Yes, that's true." " Did you kill muggers?" " No, but he asked me not to." "Why would he ask you not to if you weren't doing it?" "Listen, when a policeman finds a killer, what does he do?" "They arrest him." "Well, he did seem a bit odd." "Not only odd, the guy is crazy." "It's that simple." "He had a moment in his life when he was a somebody." "He was in charge of the vigilante killings in New York." "He was all over the newspapers, the television, asked a lot of questions." "The most important question they asked him was, "Who is the vigilante?" "Have you found him?" He hadn't." "Me, I was one on a long list of people who had family killed by the muggers." "He might have accused every one of them." "But he became such a damn pest that I left New York." "But I'll be damned if I leave Los Angeles." "I'm not gonna let him come between you and me." " I thought things had." " What?" "Come between us." "Hell, no." " Stay the night?" " I thought you'd never ask." " Do I get a key again?" " Oh, yeah." "Here, have it copied." "Don't lose it." "We may not be able to get back in tonight." " I can't see you tonight." " Why not?" "It's Judith's birthday." "I'm staying with her in Carmel after the party." "Now who's keeping us apart?" "Hello." "Frank, hi." "Mike." "I hate to ask you this after you've been so helpful but could you do something for me tonight?" " Yeah, what is it?" " Take my car  and park it outside the front of Paul Kersey's house." "Police!" "Follow that bus." "It says " proclaimed by God himself" in the scriptures." "He's the prince of the kings of the earth." "One of these days, he'll be called King of Kings." "Yes, prince of kings is just the beginning of his glory." "We must confess it now." "That if thou shall confess the Lord Jesus in thy bounty..." "Taxi!" "Come on, will you?" "Follow that bus." "It isn't moving." "When it moves, follow it." " What do we do now?" " We wait." " Can I see something?" " Stop it!" "Just let me check the color." "I really am nice, but you act like a fool around me." "Now that bus there." " I hope you got the bread." " Police business." "I ain't known for my community spirit." "Show me some money." "Here." "Start with this." "Go ahead, will you?" "Stop it!" "Come on." "Leave me alone." "Give me a break, guys." " What's down there?" " Point Fermin." " What's that?" " A historical monument." " Nothing there this time of night." " Wait here." "You get the other half when I get back." "Whatever happens wait here." "If you hear shooting, don't worry." "It's just target practice." "What's happening?" "Where you been?" " Let's see it." " Show the man." "Now this is the best." "This stuff is sweet like sugar." "Watch out!" "What the fuck is going on?" "He's over there, man!" "What the fuck is this?" "Fuck it, man." "I'll be damned." "You." "You stuck your neck out for me?" "It was you or them." " Did you get them all?" " One of them got away." "Get the motherfucker for me." "Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy..." "He's dead." "I knew he was holding out on me." "Lieutenant, over here!" " Who blew away the cop?" " I'm bleeding, man." "Who did it?" "No sign of the cab that called." "Cab service said he was just passing by." "They want to stay out of trouble." "Listen." "You'll die right here if I don't hear who killed that cop." "Nirvana." "He got away." "How's that?" "Charles Wilson!" "You fuck!" "Put out a tracer on Nirvana, also known as Charles Wilson, for murder." "No hurry." "How can an entrance door cost $500,000?" "Your wife is a very expensive designer." "She wants Italian marble, Mexican mosaic sculpted angels blowing horns on either side." "Costs a lot of money." "But here we've drawn it up in concrete." "Even has the angels on either side." "Costs a lot less." "Ask your wife about it." "She'll hate it." "Ask her anyhow." "Let me know either way." "Do you know what time they'll make their move?" "Sergeant, please keep those calls coming in." "What's happening?" "Big shootout at Point Fermin." "Five killed, including a New York cop." "Our man says the TAC squad's been called in." "I want you glued to those police monitors." "A man called Wilson got away." "Word is they may move to take him this afternoon." "If they do, I want someone there." "We could use an exclusive."

"When's it come out?" "I've got a couple more sessions at the hospital." "It's due to go in the July issue." "You really believe all this?" "Yes, I do." "You might too if you heard Clark." "You think he'd swing me over?" "If you met him you might learn some." "Maybe you're right." "Maybe you're right." " I'm sorry to have kept you." " Dr. Clark, this is Mr. Kersey." "I'm glad you came." "The more people who understand our work, the better." "I appreciate your letting me come." "Say, doctor, where is the men's room?" "Let me show you."
