"My dear friends we are gathered together today to pay our final respects to the beloved Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Ryan." "She was a dedicated wife and a loving mother." "Her life was a guiding light for all of us to follow." "She will be missed, not only by her family, but by everyone who knew her." "However, we can take solace in the fact that she is now hand-in-hand with our father in heaven." "She is now at peace with the universe." "So be it the way and the will of all things past and present." "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away." "Amen." "Add those two things to the report, get it back to me as soon as possible." "Okay, sarge." "Hey, Bar?" "Just a sec, sarge." " Yeah?" " Is that racquetball game on for tonight?" " Sure thing." " We'll kill them." " 8:30, huh?" "Okay, buddy." " Yeah." "These clowns must think I'm 2 inches tall." "Why?" "It's addressed:" "Occupant Box 47." "Well, hey, at least it isn't a bill." "Every one of these is a vulture after my hard-earned bucks." "Hey, want me to tell you how to stop getting bills?" "Yeah, how?" "Stop buying stuff, okay?" "Hey, do you think I want a national recession on my conscience, huh?" "All right." "I'm rich." "I'm famous." "First, I'm going to pay all my bills and buy myself a T-Bird and spend my vacation in Hawaii, huh?" " Hey, old buddy." " What's the matter, Frank?" "Nothing, sarge." "Everything is beautiful." "You're beautiful, Jon's beautiful and I'm terrific." "I'm beautiful and you're terrific." "What happened to him?" "He run into a tree without his helmet?" "Yeah, well, near as I can tell, he became rich and famous." "Yeah, and I just became the commissioner." "Okay, go ahead, put me down." "But I just made a fortune." "Frank, the only way you're gonna make a fortune is when Sacramento starts paying by the goof." "Yeah, wait a minute, Ponch, I mean, how can one letter make you a fortune?" "By placing in my lucky hands four tickets to Name Your Price the highest-paying game show on television." " Is that your fortune?" " Yeah." "Well, I don't wanna burst your bubble, Frank but my wife went down to that show three times and they didn't even pick her to play the game." "How do you figure they'll pick you to be a contestant?" "Because I'm lucky." "Yeah, that's what she thought." "It didn't happen." "But your wife has no luck." "How do you figure that, Frank?" "It's obvious, sarge." "She married you." "Now, I..." "That's not unlucky, Frank." "Being unlucky is being Frank Poncherello and sitting in this room 27 seconds after he's supposed to be out on patrol." " Right, sarge." " Yeah." "Come on, Baker." "Don't hang me up." "Let's get out of here." "See you later." "You said I was a natural for Name Your Price." " I never said that." " You practically said it." "What I said is, you buy more junk than anyone I know." "Right." "So I know my merchandise and I know what it costs." "You mean, what you owe." "Same thing." "Look, I'm not going into this overconfident." "No one would ever accuse Francis Llewellyn Poncherello of making that mistake." "Well, you got that right." "I'm gonna do my homework." "I'm gonna learn the price of every product in America." " By Friday?" " Yup." "With you coaching me, of course." "Pass."

" What...?" " Oh, I can't believe what happened." "I was driving along and this woman tears by me, cuts in front of me." "Look what happened to my whole stock." "How will I go to the market?" "Did you get the lady's license number?" "Get her license?" "I couldn't even see her pass, that's how fast she went." " Can I have your name, ma'am?" " I don't have a name right now." "Millie, I can't tell you my last name if you killed me." "Oh, officer." "Officer." "Did you catch that rich witch in the Rolls?" "No, sir..." "I mean, ma'am." "We didn't." "Sorry." "Terrific." "You can't catch the speeders, and they can't catch the chickens." "Dumb cluck." "Hey, Artie." "You're using the wrong psychology there." "Listen." "What, are you some kind of chicken shrink?" "Oh, very funny." "Let me show you how." "Don't you guys know how to catch the chickens?" "Okay, farmer Jon." "You're the expert, you show us." "There you go, city boys." "There's another one right here." "Two." "That's very good, partner." "We can't be standing here all day picking them up one by one." "So I got an idea." "Food." "Yeah, that's good." "Excuse me, ma'am." "Do you have any birdseed?" " Birdseed?" " Yeah." "These aren't canaries, they're chickens." "Can't you tell by the way they sing?" "Oh, I think he meant chicken feed, ma'am." "Oh, why didn't he say so?" "What are you gonna do?" "Well, I figured I'd lay down a trail of seed-feed..." "Whatever, ma'am." "And the chickens will follow it to the back of the truck." "They might just follow you to the booby hatch." "I don't think it's gonna work, guys." "Well, it's worth a try." "It's over here." "Come on, chick, chick." "Yeah." "Come on, chick, chick, chick." "Watch where you're walking." "Come on, chick, chick." "Come on, chick, chick, Come on, chick, chick, chick." "Come on, chick, chick, chick." "You see, I told you it would work."

"Listen, who are you taking to watch me win at the Name Your Price?" " I don't know." "I thought I'd take Shirley." " Shirley?" "Come on, Jon." "You know, they want classy people on their show." "Yeah?" "Then why'd they send you tickets?" "Listen, why don't you take Joyce?" " Joyce is a better blender." " Blender?" "Yeah, she'd blend in so well with the audience that I'd stand out." "Yeah, well, who are you taking?" "I thought I'd give Diane the opportunity." "Come on." "You're taking Diane, "Miss Knock-Your-Eyes-Out. "" "And I'm gonna take the blender?" "Hey, Jon, that's my game plan." "The emcee will see me sitting out there with Diane and he'll have to figure out that I'm witty, charming, and fantastic." "Fantastic, that's not bad, but how about unbelievable?" "All units stand by for a 10851 report." "Be on the lookout for two additional 10851 vehicles." "1974 tan Rolls Royce, 654 Aida-Mary-Sam."

" Only 10 more minutes." " Till what?" "Till you start coaching me for the show." "Wait a minute." "I thought "off-duty" meant we're off." "Hey, Ponch." "Yeah, Rolls with no plates." "Please, step out of the car." "Will you step to the front of the car, sir?" "May I see your driver's license and registration?" "My driver's license is no problem but I don't have the registration." "I just bought the car." "Well, let me see the driver's license then." "Hey, I know who you are." "I recognize you." "You're Bob and carey."

"Isn't that flattering, darling?" "It didn't look flattering." "They pulled us over." "What's the trouble?" "I wasn't speeding?" "No, you weren't speeding." "May I speak to you a minute back here?" " Yeah, sure." " I watch police shows." "They're just separating us, darling." "I imagine every time you stop a superstar you have a million questions." "Do you have a pink slip?" "I've got this temporary something or other here." "This paper isn't any good." "Did you buy this from a dealer or a private party?" "Oh, it was a private party." "Look, I got this really terrific deal on this car." " We will check your VIN number." " The VIN number?" "Right." "What's the trouble, officer?" "We've had a series of Rolls Royce rip-offs." "I just wanna check your car out." "The show should run at least 10 years." "Ponch, can I talk to you a minute?" " Can we take a commercial break?" " Of course, darling." "Excuse us, folks." "This is really terrific, to meet Bob and Carey on my freeway." "Hey, Ponch, don't you understand?" "Don't have a pink slip, no registration." "This could be one of the stolens." "Hey, wait a minute." "You gotta be kidding." "Not Bob and Carey." "Well, at least not Carey." "Bob maybe." "Hey, his name is not Bob." "Marlon Steel?" "Yeah, stage name." "A.K.A. Delbert Henderson?"

"Hey, not for Name Your Price, old buddy." "Come on." "These days, prices are changing with every minute." "Yeah, in one direction:" "Up." "I wonder where the driver went?" "Hey, Ponch."

"Auto Theft Division figures they've grabbed over a half million dollars worth of cars the past 10 days." "According to local dealers the regional managers keep accurate records of all Rolls Royces in their areas." "Since a hot Rolls is a hard car to pass around we figure they're probably being shipped out of the country." "Anyway, we've been asked by Auto Theft for all possible assistance on this." "So I expect you guys to keep an eye out." "Incidentally, Baker, Poncherello, that Rolls you were chasing yesterday turned up at the Deluxe Car Wash on Oxnard and Lankershim." "The car wash?" "Yeah, apparently, the woman got scared and ran off." "Anyway, I can recommend the place to you fellas." "They washed off all the fingerprints." "That's it." "Thanks, men." "Let's hit it."

"Please, Elmo." "Please get up." "How long has he been here, Jimmy?" "Ten minutes, I think." "Well, maybe you better help me get Elmo off the street." "Jimmy, if you'd just back up, my partner and I will move Elmo for you, okay?" "Okay, but you better watch out." "Elmo doesn't like being picked up." " What?" " Elmo doesn't like being picked up." "He won't mind if we help him out." "Oh, yes, he will." "When Elmo sleeps, he doesn't like being bothered." "Sleeps?" "Yeah, and Elmo sleeps wherever he wants." "Okay, Elmo." "Rise and shine." "Now."

"Easy, you just have a nice little snooze, Elmo." "Just like Jimmy says, "wherever he wants," right?" "Okay, listen, I got one last idea." "It worked for us yesterday, okay?" "Just hang on." "Yeah." "Hey, Elmo." "Easy." "Easy." "He likes you." "He likes you." "No, he doesn't." "He wants my junk food, huh?" "Come here." " Come over here." " That's it." "Come here, baby." "Come here." "Come here." "Hey." "This is a big dog you got here." "Thanks, officer." "It's our pleasure, Jimmy." " Bye." " Bye." "Hey, Ponch." "Good luck tonight." "I hope you get on the show and make lots of money." "Are you kidding?" "If Ponch wins, he'll be impossible to live with." "Hey, he's already impossible." "Why not impossible and rich?" "My game plan, exactly." "Like I said, Frank, don't get your hopes up." "There are gonna be a lot of other people there at that show." "Yeah, but I got the luck of the Irish." "Irish?" "He doesn't look Irish." "Don't you guys know about that little leprechaun I got in my back pocket?" "He gives me luck and I give him Spanish lessons." "Attention all units, 10851 just occurred." "A black Rolls Royce taken from the Pacifica Hotel." "Last seen southbound on the Harbor Freeway approaching the Santa Monica." "Oh, they're coming our way, sarge." "Okay, guys."

"Hey, they can't burn us twice, can they?" "Especially with wheels like that, those babies are built for luxury, not speed." "Hey, Ponch." " Do you suppose all those are for sale?" " We'll find a bargain in the bunch." "Fifteen, 7 Mary 3 and 4 code 6 at Montanus Rolls at the Palisades and Grand." "Ten-four, 7 Mary 3." "Okay, in there." "Out of the car, hands first." "Both of you, out of the car with your hands in the air." "Ponch, over there!" "Get out of the car." "Come on fast, move it!" "Put your hands on your head and move to the rear of the car." "Now, let's go." "There's another unit on its way." "Sorry it's not as classy as the thing you've been driving." "Yeah, but you do get a chauffeur." "And now, our last contestant on Name Your Price." "Will Frank Ponce..." "Poncer..." "Ponchere..." "Poncherello." "Whatever it is, Frank, come on up and Name Your Price." "Welcome to Name Your Price, Frank." "Relax now and tell us about yourself."
