"You want technical jargon?" "I can reel it off." "Catatonia, dementia praecox, passive schizoid paranoia."

"Nothing to do but cut and run." "What else?" "What about the old American social custom of self-defence?" "If the police don't defend us, maybe we ought to do it ourselves." "We're not pioneers anymore, Dad." " What are we, Jack?" " What do you mean?" "I mean, if we're not pioneers, what have we become?" "What do you call people who, when faced with a condition of fear do nothing about it?" "They just run and hide." "Civilised?" "No." "Ladies and gentlemen, we have to start this investigation somewhere." "So let's start here." "Motive: revenge." "I want the records checked." "Go back, say three months."

"Put Vietnam vets at the top of the list because they're young and tough." "Then work through Korea and World War ll." "Oh, my God." "Who said that?" "Whoever said it, you're right on the button." "By God and Jesus Christ, it's impossible." "But until we find a shortcut, we at least keep busy." "So when the media demands to know what we are doing we'll tell them we have definite clues." "Okay?" "We won't tell them we have 1000 definite clues." "Did anybody see what he looked like?" "We're in Commissioner Dryer's office waiting for a press conference." "Last night, there was another killing which appears to be the work of the person the media has dubbed "the vigilante. "" "This is the first official statement from the commissioner." "I can see the commissioner now" "Good morning." "With me is Inspector Frank Ochoa who's been placed in command of a police detail assigned to what we've all been calling the "vigilante murders. "" "Now, it has been confirmed by our ballistics laboratory that the same gun, a. 32 pistol, used in the previous homicides was used last night in a shooting aboard a subway train." "Now, I know that this person has captured the imagination of many people in our city." "And I want to say to our citizens murder is no answer to crime in a city." "Crime is a police responsibility." "And if this person is listenina to my voice I urae him in the name of law and order to desist from this one-man crusade and turn himself in to the police." "He'll be aiven fair treatment." "That's our police commissioner, the king of clichés." " Viailante's identification?" " No comment." "Do you think he's crazy?" "He's aot a wire down, all riaht, but I don't believe he's a maniac." "It's rumoured the rate of muaainas has dropped." "Is that true?" "Not true." "If it were, would you announce it?" "Or are you afraid of imitators?" "I don't want to aet into hypotheticals." "I'll bet muggings are down." "One way to find out." "Take a walk on Columbus Avenue." "I think I'll wait for the official report." "Yes?" "You want to confess to the vigilante killings."

" Yeah." "Here." "D'Agostino's." "Some of this code must identify the particular store." "Find out where it is." "Get records and check on families that have somebody killed by muggers." "Put them through the computer and see if any live near this store." "People are inclined to buy groceries in their own neighbourhoods." "Hi, Jack." "Come on in." "Make yourself a drink." "What do you think?" "The new paint." " It's a little hard on the eyes" " On the eyes?" "It's cheerful." "Turn it up, I can't hear." "We got liver and spaghetti for dinner." "How do you like your liver?" "Hey, no drink?" "Let me make you one." "Listen, that's all right." "I'll get it myself." "I saw Carol today." " Aren't you gonna ask how she's doing?" " I went up to see her yesterday." "What are you so high about?" "You want me to moan and groan for the rest of my life?" "You want your liver medium?" "Medium." "I'll make it medium." "Hey, there goes the pussy posse." "Hey, mister, you got a match?" "Yeah." "What else you got?" "Let's see the money, man." "You'll have to take it." "He went that way." "Who rode in the ambulance with them?" "I did." "Well, was he talking?" "He said he cut whoever shot him." "Exact words: " I cut that motherfucker, I hit him. "" "Can't save him." "Too much internal bleeding." "One slug chewed up the liver." "Here." "Thirty-twos." "The mysterious viailante is in the news aaain." "Two hours aao in a subway underpass two men were shot." "One died on the spot, the other manaaed to reach the street." "He died shortly afterward." "The two men are Joseph Roscoe Adams and Georae Riche." "Both had lona criminal records." "The viailante himself may have been wounded." "The actions of a viailante, lawless as they may be seem to be aivina others a new attitude toward crime." "Instead of allowina themselves to be muaaed, a few are fiahtina back." "Mrs. Alma Lee Brown today successfully defended herself aaainst two muaaers with an unusual weapon." " Tell us, how did you drive them off?" " With a hatpin." " You ever seen a hatpin?" " I can't say that I have." "That's what we used to use to hold our hats on with." "I ain't aot no aun like this viailante fellow." "But I went to my closet, and everybody better look out for me." "Because I been robbed too many times." "And I've had enouah." "The men buildina this skyscraper made a citizen's arrest today." "Andrew McCabe, a foreman, will tell you." "Me and my crew was workina down in the hole." "One of the boys yelled down, "There's a muaaina. " So we come out and we cauaht this auy and rouahed him up before the police came." "The hospital reports the man had broken arms and cracked ribs." "No kiddina?" "Jeez, the poor auy must have fell down." "Walking distance from D'Agostino's two blocks across, six blocks uptown and downtown." "That's how far I'd be willing to walk to a market." "Good." "Very good, Miss Chamitti." "12 families within this area suffered a death in the past three months from mugging, stabbing, shooting, assault." "Two families have no male members." "One has only an 80-year-old grandfather." "That leaves nine families." "Total number of males in these families old enough to have served in Vietnam, Korea or World War ll..." "Wild." "It's a real wild shot." "But the vigilante plugged his first victim in Riverside Park." "Exactly two and one half blocks from that D'Agostino's Market." "Even if all of them are clean, we can't ignore that coincidence." "No, sir." "Our friend lives in that neighbourhood." "But, Frank, he was on a subway with groceries five miles uptown." "There's no better come-on for a mugging than groceries." "Means he's got some money and his hands are occupied." "He might have been carrying those groceries for hours." "I want a preliminary on these names." "Where they work service record, reputation police record, if any." "And I want it fast." "Like today, huh?" "It's probably having as much effect on crime as a Band-Aid on a leper." "I don't know." "A mugger will think twice about who he hits." "Sure, they hit more old ladies." "Paul, how you doing?" "Let me get you a drink." "The guy's a racist." " He kills more blacks than whites." " More blacks are muggers." "You want to up the proportion of white muggers to have racial equality?" "What?" "Racial equality among muggers?" "I love it." " What have you got here?" " Guy named Paul Kersey." "Wife was murdered in their apartment." "Interesting detail:" "The attackers gained entrance to the apartment posing as delivery boys from our D'Agostino's Market." " What else about him?" " He lives alone now." "Development engineer for Blueridge." "Served in Korea, medical corps." "Conscientious objector." "No police record." "His credits, reputation, excellent." "Conscientious objectors are unlikely vigilantes." " We got a finger?" " Yeah." "Over there." "Patrolman Joe Charles." "Good." "Good morning." " Joe Charles, Mr. Kersey." " Of course." "Good to see you again." "How's your daughter?" "The same." "Take care." "Follow him." "I'll see to that, Mrs. Cohen." "One moment." "You're not residents." " I'll call who you wish to see." " No, you won't." "The district attorney will see you now." " Commissioner." " You know the district attorney." " Mr. Peters." " Inspector." "Commissioner says you have a good suspect." "Well, he fits the bill in some respects." "We got a blood sample from the knife used on him in the subway and checked it against the sample I found in his apartment." "It narrows it down." "But he could be the man." "Yeah." "Yeah, he could be." "Suppose this Paul Kersey is the vigilante." "All right, let's say that." "We don't want him." "Okay." "Inspector, on my desk I have a statistic red-hot out of the computer." "Mugging has gone down by how much, sir?" "From 950 a week to 470 reported last week." "Not too many people know that." " And you want to keep it that way." " No, we have to keep it that way." "This city would explode." "We'd have vigilantes killing anybody who looked greasy." "You can see that." "We want this man to quit, desist go away." "To stop." "So the mugging rate can go up?" "Why not arrest him?" " I don't want a martyr on my hands." " All right." "All right." "I just want to hear you say it." "I'll try to scare him off." "But that's as far as I'll go." "That's right, Frank." "Scare him off." "Scare him off."

"He's armed, so we couldn't take chances." "I hope you understand." " If you want to make a complaint" " It's all right, nobody was hurt." "Thanks." "Good night." "Okay?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Went in the building 10 minutes ago." "Went to D'Agostino's first." "Let's check him, huh?" "Go to that phone and call him." " He's up there." " Check him anyway." "Police!" "I need the phone." "Come on." "Who is this guy?" "He said, " Police. " I didn't see a badge." "I'll call as soon as he gets off." "Thanks." "Yeah, up yours." "No answer." "He could be in the shower." "Stay here."

" You were the first on the scene?" " Yes." "God bless you, sir." "Never mind that." "They told me on the radio you had to see me." "Paul Kersey." " You spoke to him before the ambulance?" " No, sir." " What did you get?" " His address." "Is that all?" "Well?" " You enter this on your report?" " Not yet, sir." "Why not?" "I was waiting for instructions, sir." "You never saw it." "Yes, sir." "Oh, what's your full name?" "Jackson Reilly, sir. 21 st Precinct." "Okay." "I'll remember it." " Do you have the vigilante?" " No." "Well, who have you got there?" "You in charge?" "How is he?" "Wounds are clean, nothing vital." "Soon as we get some blood in him, we'll sew him up." " All right if I go in?" " He won't be able to talk." " Can he hear me?" " He is conscious." "Police." "I'd like to have him alone." "Good evening, Mr. Kersey." "This is your gun." "We gave you a chance to get rid of it." "You wouldn't take it." "Do you hear me okay?"

"Do you have the vigilante?" " Like to give us some information?" " No." " Is the wounded man the vigilante?" " He's just a mugging victim." " What about reports that he is?" " False reports." " Then he's still out there." " That's right." "Was he shot by the vigilante?" "Mr. Kersey." "Fred Brown." "Welcome to Chicago." " Nice trip?" " It was okay."
