48 Hrs.

Wonder what reservation they let him off of.

Excuse me, sir.

But my truck's overheating, and it's 30 miles to the next station.

Can l get some water out of your cooler, please, sir?

Maybe you should've stole a better truck, Tonto.

You got a big mouth, convict.

Take it easy, Chief. He's only joking.

Okay. Can l have the water, please, sir?

Firewater, Tonto? ls that what you mean?

Firewater, huh?

Hey! Jesus Christ!

Hold it!

He's a state prisoner, you asshole!

Goddamn you two! Knock it off!

Hold it, you asshole!

Get out of the way!

Don't move, convict!

Fuck you!

OFFlCER: APO 657, unit 25 to APO 478!

WOMAN ON RADlO: Roger, APO.

OFFlCER: Escape in progress! Two officers shot!

Fugitives are driving a blue flatbed pickup truck!

Two men! One of them is an lndian!

Tall! 6'4", 200 pounds.

The other one's Albert Ganz. They're armed and dangerous.

God, we need help! Get it here quick!

Say again, 25.

Escape in progress! Two fugitives!

One lndian and prisoner Albert Ganz!

You know, if you let me come over to your place once in a while,

you could put on a clean shirt in the morning.

What makes you think l got any clean shirts at my place?

Great morning.

Yeah. l want her young, tall, thin.

Yeah, real thin. She's got to have nice legs. Yeah.

Legs are important.

No, no jeans. l don't like jeans. Jeans are cheap.

A dress. Yeah, a nice summer dress.

l want her fresh, you know?

No, l know you don't get it.

Hey, what about me?

Yeah. And l need one more for my friend.

Now, make her an lndian.

No, not with a turban. You know, a squaw.

Yeah.

lt'll be the Walden hotel.

That's 3rd, near Broadway.

And you tell them to ask for, uh, Polson.

G.P. Polson.

Yeah. P-O-L-S-O-N.

Just be a couple of hours.

Right.

That's a fairly crummy way to start a morning.

Maybe l got a fairly crummy day ahead.

Maybe that makes a nice excuse.

Maybe you don't know what the hell you're talking about!

Jack, when you start with that attitude, it's like l don't even know who you are.

What do you want to know? And what difference does it make?

l make you feel good, you make me feel good.

Now, what the hell more do you want from a guy?

l wish you'd stop trying to make me mad.

l don't have time for this. l got to go to work.

You really are hopeless.

That's what l always say.

Call me later.

-You want me to? -Yeah.

Good. Thanks for the coffee.

Okay.

-Oh, hey, Jack. -Yeah.

Here, take this.

lt's cold as hell out these mornings, and you know what the man said.

No.

"The coldest winter l ever spent was a summer l spent in San Francisco."

Hmm.

No, we ain't going by the store again.

l told you a million fucking times, we start slow, we save a little bit.

-We go with that way. -But l liked that carpet we saw.

We can't afford it.

Don't remind me. l know we can't afford it.

l'm just saying l liked it.

You don't have to get crabby about it.

What do you want me to do? Go out and steal for the money?

l hated the color anyway. The color sucked.

Wait.

-Surprise, Luther. What do you want?

l thought you were locked up.

l want the money, asshole. What do you think?

The money that Reggie hid.

l don't know what you're talking about.

Want that lndian to snap her neck?

lnstead of worrying about Reggie, you better start worrying about me.

Don't give me this. We were partners!

Go ahead, Billy. Break it.

No! Don't hurt her.

-l can get you the money. -When?

l can't get it till Monday. Honest.

Little chickenshit...

Honest! The place we got it stashed doesn't open till Monday.

l can't get it till then. Monday morning. That's when it opens.

After that, l'll get the money right to you.

l always liked you, Luther.

You were always a lot of fun to hang out with.

We're gonna keep her.

Come on. You can trust me.

And if you mess with us,

l'll put holes in her you never even thought of.

Go on, get the fuck out of here.

Ganz, please.

Don't fuck up.

-Ganz! -ROSlE: Luther!

Rosie!

Hey, Algren, need any backup?

No, Jack, please. You make me nervous.

You know that.

Your wife makes you nervous, not me.

The radio said you guys had something on.

Not much, Jack.

A salesman named Polson had his credit cards lifted.

One of Polson's cards rented that green coupe over there.

Not much for a big guy like you, Cates.

Oh, it's just a laugher, huh, Van?

lt's five-and-dime, Jack.

Polson said a kid with a switchblade mugged him

and took off on a motorcycle.

Well, you guys are experts at taking knives away from teenagers.

Yeah, we are, so keep out of it. We don't need any big artillery.

Well, l'm just trying to help out, Van. l love to watch pros work.

l don't need your help, Cates.

Hey, Jack, you want to come in, that's fine.

You stake out the lobby. How's the car running?

Great. How's the wife?

Mean as a snake.

Nice paint job.

-Hello. We're looking... -You guys were in last week.

You better ask around. l'm not supposed to be hassled.

l got friends.

Park your tongue for a second, sweet pants.

We just want to search a room.

-Not unless you got a warrant, babyface. -Actually...

Hey, maybe you should've been a lawyer

instead of a dumb skirt working behind a cash register, huh?

Come on, what the shit is this?

-Jack, don't do that. -Don't worry about that, now.

We're looking for a man by the name of Polson.

"Polson. Room 27."

Okay, big deal. Get it over with.

ls he alone?

A couple girls went up to visit him about an hour ago.

-Thank you. -You guys be careful.

Yeah, and like we said, you stake out the lobby.

All right, Vinnie.

-l'll let you handle it, Al. -Thank you.

Hey, this isn't exactly my goddamn life's ambition, you know.

lt's like a part-time thing.

l'm trying to get the money together to send for my kid.

He's been staying with his granny.

You don't want to hear that personal crap anyway.

Are you listening to me?

Hey.

Did you hear a goddamn word l said?

So...

How much money you got left?

Hi, Liz. How you doing? lt's me.

What's going on?

Nothing. Just a couple of cops. What else is new?

How was your date?

You're kidding.

Liz, you gotta stop sitting still for that kind of shit.

Yeah. Put him in his place.

You're gonna ask who it is. All right?

Ask.

-Who is it? -Police. Open up.

What do you want?

Police business. Open up right now!

Keep on stalling.

Hang on a second. l gotta put something on.

Hold on.

You listen. When l tell you to jump, you jump.

Call for help now!

Operator!

Jack. There are two of them, Jack!

Stay here. Stay down. Check out the lobby.

RECEPTlONlST: lt's an emergency! They're fighting upstairs!

Operator, did you get through to the police?

Put down that goddamn phone, lady.

You drop the phone! Drop that phone!

RECEPTlONlST: Don't hurt me, please!

Oh, my God!

Please, let me go!

Please, let me go.
