"Relax everyone." "As in, uh, take it easy, we're not dedicating a battleship here." "On today's agenda, first up, round of attaboys for our two rookies who assisted in a felony assault collar last week." "Officers McLaren and Khan located and secured the gun used during the robbery." "Good work gets noticed." "Squad requested you guys today." "They're executing an arrest warrant, so go see Detective Collins." "MARTINI:" "You guys are so good at finding things, maybe you could give my partner a hand." "He hasn't seen his feet in five years." "(laughs)" "All right, let's be safe." "Remember, meal breaks in your sector only-- I don't care who has the best pizza in town." "Martini." "You guys are rolling with Detective Collins today?" "Guy like him, he takes a shine to you, the job can open up like a dream." "My advice: bring your A-game." "A-game."

"PERRY:" "It's a sports drink." "Pretty sure they're still street legal." "Well, maybe not that purple favor." "(chuckles) You seem particularly focused today." "Let's just say I'm in a meritorious mood." "Playing in the NBA wasn't enough recognition for you?" "Don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about." "I'm sure you came back from Iraq with a medal or two." "I don't like recalling how I got them." "(car horn honking, tires screeching)" "(woman screaming, metallic crashing)" "(excited clamoring)" "2-2 post 48 to central." "PERRY:" "I've have a pick up of a 10-53 with injuries." "MAN:" "Somebody help." "I'm going to need multiple buses." "Please, help." "Driver's alive." "Call it in." "2-2 post 48 to central." "Sir, I'm a police officer." "I'm here to help you." "Can you tell me your name?" "(grunts) Nick Reynolds." "Okay, Nick, is there anybody else in the car?" "My wife." "Please check on her, make sure she's okay." "Talk to the driver-- name's Nick." "TONEY:" "Hey, Nick." "How's it going?" "Stupid question." "(grunts)" "PERRY:" "Jackpot, we got a passenger, female." "Ma'am, are you okay?" "I don't know, I can't move." "Try and hold still, you've been in car accident." "What's your name?" "Morgan." "Okay, Morgan, I'm going to help you." "Whitehouse, we need to get out of here, now." "Got gasoline, a lot of it." "Morgan, you hear those sirens?" "That's help." "A whole bunch of help is on its way." "I'm going to be back in just a second." "No, please, you can't leave me." "I have a sharp pain."

"Best chance of them dying right now is by going into shock." "Shrapnel." "They didn't cover that at the academy." "There's not classroom in the world that's going to teach you how to deal with a jam like this." "But you're going to know more today than you did yesterday." "I promise you that much." "We got a problem-- gas leak." "When the van flipped, it smashed into our safety railing, fractured a pipe underground." "How long till you shut it off?" "15 minutes, 20 tops." "Do the best you can but I can't wait." "All right, fellas look, I got fuel on the ground and a ruptured gas line under the street." "Paramedics have to stay back." "Okay, there's plenty of injuries on the perimeter that need to be dealt with." "Yeah, well, getting killed in the line of duty is not in their job description." "That's for soldiers, fireman and us." "Suspect's name is Jerry Williams." "Car booster, seems to be making a career out of stealing air bags." "Informant says he sleeps late here in this side building attached to this chop shop." "Place doesn't open till no, so we should be in good shape." "Come in, boys." "Fellas, these guys kicked some serious ass last week." "Dug through a Dumpster to find a gun using a commercial 30, while everyone else was standing around waiting to get their books scratched." "I just want to let you know, we really appreciate the opportunity." "Word is, our friend Jerry carries a Glock, so be on the lookout." "Me and Cookie are going to hit the front door." "Kennedy and J.J., right behind." "Where are we going to be positioned?" "See the door, that's our entry point." "Got it." "You guys will be-- now follow my finger so I'm perfectly clear here-- in a position integral to the success of this warrant, all the way down, right here next to this vegetable garden." "(other chuckling)" "Okay, guys, let's do it." "I worked the 9-7 with your old man." "A real gentleman." "Ride with me, let's see if we can teach you guys something today."

"You're perfect." "What makes you so sure?" "You're the first on the scene, which makes you a familiar face to him." "Now get your ass in there." "Your turn to pay." "All right." "Okay, eight dollars." "BOTH:" "Eight dollars?" "Does that include the plane ticket to Colombia to pick the beans." "Are you kidding me?" "Other way around, my friend." "I give the police free drinks, hero sandwiches, even gourmet cookies, and still I get parking tickets." "Four, last week alone." "Take it easy, we never ask for anything." "You know what, take your coffee." "No, no, you pour, you pay." "Two cups, eight dollars!" "All right.." "Oh..." "Show me where it says coffee is four bucks a cup." "Get out of my face." "Is there a problem here?" "Yeah, your officers won't pay for their coffee." "Eight dollars." "Eight doll..." "(chuckles) Yeah." "Okay." "Uh..." "That covers refills." "My officers always pay." "You do the same." "Or I'll personally put boots on all four tires of your car." "Enjoy your day." "Come on, I got a job for you two." "Little less complicated than buying a cup of coffee." "It's fighting me." "I can't grab a hold of the metal, it's too thick." "Take it at an angle, try a V-cut." "And watch for sparks, that gas line's still hot." "NICK:" "Look, Officer..." "Call me Jackpot, all my friends do." "Am I going to die?" "No." "You have some bruises and stuff." "Probably take you to the hospital, keep you overnight to be safe." "What about Morgan, is she okay?" "She's fine." "I'm not getting any oxygen." "You need more oxygen." "I'll be right back." "(Morgan grunts)" "PERRY:" "That's 15 minutes." "Not bad, but let's just see if we can try and slow it down a little." "(metallic creaking) I want you to close your eyes and take a deep breath." "Are you crazy?" "I can't." "I can't." "Try." "(metallic creaking)" "(cries out)" "It's okay." "It's just ESU cutting through the metal." "They know what they're doing, right?" "Yes." "(indistinct police radio transmission)" "Sweet, we get to hang out." "Downstairs." "Narco just hit this place." "Found an Ecstasy lab here in the basement." "So, what, we just sit and wait here?" "Yeah, until the DEP gets here." "Think you can handle that?" "My college labs didn't have stuff that nice." "Probably weren't as profitable either." "DEAN:" "Better living through modern chemistry." "Okay." "Well, at least we got TV, huh?" "Look at this." "Box like this is bound to be stuffed with premium goodies." "Definite HD package." "Oh, must be some kind of reality show." "(chuckles)" "I can't move my arms." "Maybe they're paralyzed?" "Can you wiggle your fingers?" "Yeah." "They're just pinned down." "Probably swelling up." "Just try and relax." "(sighs) Stop telling me to relax." "What about Nick?" "He's fine." "He's in good hands." "Trust me, my partner used to play pro ball." "Guy's got ice running through his veins." "Stand by, we're going in." "COLLINS:" "You in position?" "10-4." "Police, don't move!" "We're watching corn grow." "We should be over there on the playing field." "Be happy we got tickets to the game." "A-game." "(glass breaking)" "COLLINS (over radio):" "We've got a runner!" "McLaren, Khan, south side, get him!" "Cut him off!" "Call it in?" "KHAN:" "Out of breath!" "You do it." "(grunts)" "You like running from me now, huh?" "(grunting)" "Come on." "Get up!" "Handcuff this mutt." "Get him out of my face." "We've got the gas line cut off." "10-4." "So, you still haven't told me, is it a boy or a girl?" "Nick thinks boy." "I know it's a girl." "He's okay, right?" "I mean, that's not why I can't talk to him?" "No." "He's fine." "Is that why I can't hear him?" "He's dead, isn't he?" "No." "Nick?" "Nick?" "!" "Listen to me." "He's alive and he's conscious." "The inside of the car compacted in the accident." "There's a solid wall of steel between the two of you, that's why you can't talk to each other." "What happened to your perp?" "Detective Collins was teaching us how police work is done around here." "It got a little bumpy out there." "At least you saw some action." "Let's not say anything stupid, okay?" "Lift your shirt." "(sighs)" "How'd you get these?" "He resisted arrest." "That your version?" "Word for word." "(groans) That hurt?" "You kidding?" "My girlfriend hits harder than that." "You two, make yourselves useful." "Go and get me a medical treatment form." "The guy's petrified of Collins." "Not the time to discuss it." "He may be too afraid to say something, but I'm not." "It was an accident." "I know." "No, no, the baby." "We just got married last year." "Now I'm gonna be a father." "Guess you're never ready for that." "You have kids?" "No, I'm... (chuckles) I'm my own kid." "(chuckles)" "My dad said... (groans) ...he became an adult the day I was born." "Doesn't seem that long ago he was taking us fishing on Saturday mornings." "(groans)" "It's stuffy in here." "I'm hot." "Great, the window's painted shut." "I think I finally found a channel worth watching." "(doorbell rings)" "Got it." "I got the door." "You a cop?" "What gave it away?" "Looking for Wade." "Wade's a little tied up right now." "He was supposed to meet me an hour ago." "Yeah, it's definitely not been a good day for him." "He's over at the 22nd precinct if you want to go down." "Do they allow conjugal visits?" "Not intentionally." "That's too bad." "All right, see ya." "All right." "Go, Wade." "Why did you lie?" "We both know you didn't fight back, you didn't resist." "My word against his." "Come on." "Don't shine me on, man." "They're your rules." "What rules?" "You make 'em run, you catch a beating." "Especially from the older dudes." "Plus I got a brother who's got two warrants hanging over him, so if I go talking, this ain't nothing compared to the grief he catches." "Why don't you get out of here before you get us in more trouble?" "(glass shatters)" "It's nothing." "Just a piece of glass shattering." "No, I feel something." "I think I'm bleeding." "I am." "I'm bleeding down my leg." "(whimpering)" "You're not bleeding." "Your water broke." "What are you doing?" "Morgan's water broke." "What?" "Her contractions are speeding up." "We're going as fast as we can." "The way the car collapsed, we cut too quickly, we risk dropping the frame." "Grab a Sawzall so we can cut through some of this junk." "(grunts)" "What about your dad?" "What was, what was your favorite thing to do with him?" "My dad skated on us when I was just a peewee." "I don't remember too... (gasping)" "Nick!" "Hey, we got a serious problem." "He's swallowing his tongue." "He's not getting enough oxygen." "Get a medic!" "Forget it." "Stick your hand in his mouth and pull his tongue down." "But be careful, he'll probably bite down pretty hard." "You don't want to lose anything." "Feel along the palate, and then pull down." "Okay, I think I got it." "I think I got it." "I think I got it." "(panting)" "PERRY:" "The color's coming back." "Next time, I get the pregnant one." "(clanking)" "What was that?" "!" "The metal on the roof's too hard." "It sheered the bolt straight off." "So now what?" "We need to make a tunnel, pull 'em out through the trunk." "I'm getting the spreader." "Oh, this just keeps getting better." "I thought we were gonna talk about it." "I did." "I meant with me." "You don't seem too bothered by it." "Hey, I've seen enough of this arbitrary brutal crap to last me ten lifetimes, and I certainly didn't sign up for the job in order to see more." "Ahmad, I may not have grown up in Afghanistan, but I did grow up in a family of cops." "No one likes a rat." "We dime out a vet like Collins, and our asses won't be worth a damn around here." "Let me tell you what that means:" "you call for a 10-13, and all of a sudden everyone is too busy to back you up, other guys don't want you on their shifts." "It can get real lonely, real quick." "I'm going to go talk to Sergeant Dean." "How about backing me up?" "All right, let's get the spreader in there." "NICK:" "You... saved my life." "Guess I need to name my son after you." "One Jackpot in this world is more than enough." "(chuckles, coughing)" "Why did your dad leave?" "Things got too real for him, I guess." "I'm sure he'd be proud of you now." "I don't know." "The man had his share of run-in with the cops." "I'm sorry... sorry to hear that." "Busted my back my whole life, what do I got to show for it?" "A divorce, a daughter who barely speaks to me, and a studio apartment so small" "I got to leave the room to change my mind, and this guy, he makes Ecstasy, he's got a more stable family life than I do." "Well, now they can all visit him at Rikers." "Look at this." "Now we got the Spanish channel." "(doorbell rings)" "Got it." "Oh!" "There's two of you." "Are all cops so smart?" "I was always a whiz at math." "I'm guessing Wade isn't here." "Wade's run into a little bit of trouble, but we've actually become rather close." "So if you'd like me to pass along a message, uh, you know, you could leave your number." "Or numbers." "Not sure how that works." "It's okay." "There's two of you." "Okay." "Maybe next time." "(chuckling)" "I can't imagine why you have trouble meeting women." "Hmm." "Look at this guy, right?" "What's he's got that I don't?" "Well, based on the size of those hands," "I can take a guess." "That's disgusting." "Plus there's no scientific correlation on that." "You want to talk to my perp, you talk to me first." "I must have missed that lecture in the academy." "Happy to educate you." "I did you a favor by inviting you in." "Thought you and your partner were squared away." "What happens on the street stays on the street." "Got it?" "Loud and clear." "Better figure out whose side you're on, kid." "Not yours, that's for sure." "You have something to say to me?" "Come on, say it!" "Hey, what are you doing?" "DEAN:" "Hey!" "Enough!" "Get your kids in line, Dean." "(Morgan gasping)" "I took classes for this!" "No offense, but I thought it was going to be my husband holding my hand." "I'm so sorry." "Are you married?" "No." "(yells, pants)" "There's got to be someone." "Actually I'm semi-engaged." "Semi-engaged." "I almost got married once." "He was a lieutenant." "We met when we both rotated through Germany." "It was a little tricky never being in the same city for more than a couple of nights, but it worked." "I got stateside first, and he was six months behind." "What happened?" "He stayed." "(groans)" "I hate when they break up over the phone." "Actually, I got a letter." "(whooshing explosion)" "(indistinct police radio transmission)" "GAS WORKER:" "Pipes hit at a T junction." "The second one had a leak we couldn't detect." "Now, we're doing the best we can, but the gas cut off valve isn't at the same spot as the first one." "I'll give you a wall of water between you and that flame, wet down everything that has a chance of catching fire." "(Morgan screaming)" "This baby's not waiting." "You've got to get me out of here." "Soon." "You've been saying that since you got here." "I'm suffocating." "She's pressing on my diaphragm." "(yelling)" "She's four minutes apart." "The baby's dropping." "There's no room to deliver in there." "We got to get her out now." "We'll tunnel directly for the woman; we got no choice." "Risk dealing with the husband as a secondary." "You may not believe it, but I was not always the ladies' man you see before you today." "Get out of town." "First crush:" "Renee Friedman, third grade." "How'd that work out?" "Not well." "She was married." "What kind of school did you go to?" "Things didn't get much better after that." "Met my ex at a crime scene." "Little did I know..." "Do you have any, um, good memories with women?" "Kate Moss." "You went out with Kate Moss?" "I was assigned a fashion piece, right, by my old paper, and I spent the afternoon with Ms. Moss." "In the, uh, in the interview, she said she wanted "a man of substance."" "So, I go for it, I say..." "I ask her out, and I will never forget what happens next." "Do I want to know?" "(chuckles) She laughed so hard that she fell down and sprained her ankle." "(cackles)" "Are you feeling as weird as I am?" "All depends." "Is this my hand?" "Yeah, my point exactly." "Hmm, that vent." "The fumes from the lab must be leaking through." "Come on, Romeo, let's go upstairs and get some fresh air." "Not so fast." "You are next." "No way, get that thing away from me." "(chuckles)" "S-Still here, huh?" "Morgan's getting really close with her contractions." "She's fine, but they made a call to get her out first." "Good." "How do you do it?" "Deal with death every day." "It must be a pretty depressing job." "No one's dying here today." "(metal creaking)" "Why'd you become a cop anyway?" "A lot of people believed in me." "I let them down." "So, the uniform is your penance." "Kind of started out that way, but not anymore." "♪ Uh ♪" "♪ Cool Nutz ♪" "♪ Raz Cash ♪" "♪ The boy, Bosco... ♪" "DEAN:" "By the time I got to the 2-2," "Collins was already a legend around here." "First to back an officer up, last to leave." "Man." "Hardly recognize this block anymore." "I hear a lawyer from Skadden Arps bought that place." "He put a lap pool up on the roof there." "Collins used to like to walk the streets at night." "One time, he heard a girl screaming up there." "He didn't wait for help." "He busted in, ran up the three flights, and found a 16-year-old girl about to be raped by two skells." "There was a gun fight;" "he shot them both." "Made the cover of the Post." "That bodega used to sell more guns out the back than beer out the front." "Collins's partner died doing an undercover buy one night." "So that gives him the right to do whatever he wants now?" "When he first came on the job, it was a different time, a different city." "Back then, we were all like that." "You made the change." "Some guys have a harder time adapting." "You think I didn't know the score the second I saw your perp being examined by a paramedic?" "I watched a guy beat the tar out of a defenseless man." "Look, you do what you believe is right." "I just wanted to make sure you know who the guy is before you decide what to do." "Honest to God, my love life is as lousy as yours." "Always has been." "Most guys that I've known, they'd do it to a snake, if they can only find someone to hold its head." "(clears throat)" "Right now for me, it's all about the job." "You know, I want to..." "I want to prove myself." "I want to be one of the good ones." "Maybe one of the great ones." "At the same time," "I ain't taking no one at face value, Yoda on up." "I don't care if you got stripes, bars, brass buttons, white hair, a driver, you could still be a four-star hump as far as I'm concerned." "Show and prove, baby, me to you and you to me." "When... wait, I'm sorry." "I'm still trying to envision the holding the snake head thing." "(Morgan panting, screaming)" "Stay with me." "She's coming, I can feel it." "It's too late." "Stay focused." "Breathe." "We're in; we got her." "(Morgan panting, moaning)" "Okay, you're going to feel a slight pinch." "That's the IV going in." "PARAMEDIC:" "BP's 150/95." "How many weeks are you, sweetie?" "36." "Any complications?" "No." "Is this your first pregnancy?" "Yes." "(whimpering)" "They've got Morgan out." "She's okay, heading to the hospital." "Going to be just a couple more minutes." "Hang tight, Nick." "Just to review, Collins helped save this neighborhood from despair and lost his partner on the job, so if we report him, we're the rats." "And if we give him a free pass, and word gets out to IAB, guess which two probationary rookies are applying for jobs on the fire department." "No matter what you want to do, I'm behind you either way." "I know." "Thought Yoda was supposed to guide us." "When I was little, my grandfather used to do exactly the same thing, except it was a mountain we'd walk up." "He'd never tell you exactly what to do, just told a lot of stories." "So, how'd you figure out the right answer?" "Come to think of it, he only took you on the walk in the first place when you were about to do something really stupid." "Like make a complaint against a precinct legend when even the guy he beat up isn't talking." "I guess if we can't listen to our sergeant, we really are screwed." "Hey, your boy's in real rough shape." "Based on his condition, there's not enough time to make a second tunnel." "But you're gonna get him out now, right?" "We're gonna have to risk breaking through the mid-section of the vehicle." "I told Nick he'd be fine;" "I promised him." "Man, I gave him my word." "We'll do our best, kid, but he's got a ton of internal bleeding." "Once we move him, there's a good chance his insides are going to come apart." "Prepare yourself." "(panting) I need something for the pain, please." "We're gonna be at the hospital in three minutes." "Just hang in there." "What about Nick?" "Why isn't he out yet?" "Oh, my God!" "Nick!" "Nick!" "(screaming) Come on, Morgan, we have come this far." "I see the baby crowning;" "we've got to go." "On three." "You told me." "One, two, three." "You told me." "(crying)" "PARAMEDIC:" "Tempo 113 here, escorting that 10-56." "ETA less than a minute." "DISPATCH:" "Thank you 113." "Advise... (sirens wailing)" "She's on her way to the hospital." "She's okay." "I'm sorry." "You've got nothing to be sorry about." "I mean, it's either this or walk the same block 185 times." "You don't understand." "The crash is my fault." "I took my eyes off the road, just one second, not even..." "Hey, man, that's why they call them accidents." "I would like to have seen him." "Taken him fishing." "Hey, man, Nick, come on, man, tell me what you need." "I don't know what to do." "Kate Moss." "SANCHEZ:" "You went out with Kate Moss?" "My paper had me do a fashion piece... (laughs) ...and, uh, yeah." "I got to spend the afternoon with, uh... with Ms. Moss." "And, uh..." "(laughing)" "SANCHEZ:" "...prove yourself to me, too." "I ain't taking no one at face value." "Yoda on up." "I don't care if you got stripes, bars, brass buttons, white hair, a driver, you could still be a four-star hump as far as I'm concerned." "Okay, you two, rise and shine!" "Here we go." "Going to be just a couple more minutes, Nick." "Jackpot, we got it now." "No!" "We got it!" "No!" "Just back off, now!" "It's a faint pulse, but it's still there." "Come on, Nick." "Stay with us." "Hey." "I got your message." "About before... your boy stepped out of line, but we're good." "No, we're not." "The next time you do something as stupid as beating a helpless perp in broad daylight, it won't be two rookies you have to deal with." "It'll be me filing the report." "How dare you put my kids in that position?" "You're not talking to one of your rookies now." "I know exactly who I'm talking to." "Lately, you seem to be making one bad move after another." "Or maybe you don't remember putting that Cortez kid in the hospital with a subdural last March." "Or cuffing that minister after a fender bender on 125th Street the day before Christmas." "He had a mouth on him." "Come on." "You were better than that." "You still are." "Am I?" "Seems I remember you throwing down pretty good with the rest of us, back in the day." "Yeah." "Times have changed." "Every person with a cell phone is a click away from having a photo credit on New York One." "As it is, it's a miracle nobody saw what you did." "A good cop does what he has to, to survive." "A good cop adapts and changes to his environment." "And if you can't do that, maybe it's time you get out." "Where do you get off..." "I spoke to Walker in Missing Persons." "Missing Persons?" "I'd rather shoot myself." "You're a time bomb out there, Collins." "Do the smart thing." "Protect your pension." "(siren wailing)" "(screams)" "Come on, I see the head." "Keep pushing!" "You're doing great." "Hold her leg down." "One more big push!" "Here we go!" "(grunts, screams)" "(baby crying)" "It's a boy." "(sobbing)" "(crying)" "There's nothing more you can do." "It's time to let go." "Please." "Hey, Nick." "Hey, Nick, look, man." "You were right." "It's a boy." "I just spoke to the paramedic." "You're home free." "On your way to the hospital to see your little man." "I'm gonna be okay, really?" "That's right." "You heard me." "Now, watch your son being born." "(crying)" "Look at that right arm." "Strong." "Perfect for casting a fishing rod." "Make his father proud of him." "(sniffs)" "Department policy." "You've been exposed to illegal narcotics." "We need a specimen for our records." "Fill 'em up." "I hope not from here, 'cause my aim is definitely gonna be a little off." "Uh, you know, it's not every day" "I get to advise my rookies on their personal life, but, uh... let me be the first to tell you:" "lower your standards." "I mean, Kate Moss?" "(clears throat)" "You saw the... video?" "There is no version in this life where she goes out with you." "Exactly how much of the video did you see?" "Well, enough to torment Lazarus for a while." "Hope that doesn't make me a four-star hump." "(sighs)" "(sighs)" "You know, I started like you guys." "Came out of the academy, thought I'd save the whole city, block by block." "Be a real hero." "Hmm." "But the job does what it will to you." "Only if you let it." "(laughing):" "Oh, yeah?" "Do me one favor." "A few years from now, after you've rolled around in the dirt with bad guys more times than you can count, a couple hundred arrests under your belt, call me and tell me you never went to town on a perp." "Not even once." "You were amazing out there today." "Didn't do too bad yourself." "All I did was watch a guy die." "Doesn't feel much like a win." "In Iraq, it was so hot all the time."
