404. - Do I have the right of appeal, sir?
- Sure.Copy !req
405. Go see Captain Tolkin.
You've got one foot in shit already.Copy !req
406. - Put the other one in.
- Where might that be? I wonder, sir.Copy !req
407. Thank you, sir.Copy !req
408. That is one hell of a mustache.
I wish I had the guts.Copy !req
409. Well, I have what I consider to be
good reasons for wearing it, sir.Copy !req
410. You don't have to tell me.Copy !req
411. - But I'd like to.
- I thought so.Copy !req
412. I think it's time that we started, uh,
to communicate more on the street, sir.Copy !req
413. You know, the way it is,
we're totally isolated, sir.Copy !req
414. I mean, we're completely out of touch
with what's happening.Copy !req
415. An undercover cop
walks around in disguise...Copy !req
416. wearing black shoes and white
socks. Everybody knows who he is.Copy !req
417. You made your point.Copy !req
418. I want you to keep your mustache.Copy !req
419. And I'd like you to patrol
in your own car.Copy !req
420. Wear whatever you want.
How does that strike you?Copy !req
421. I'd like that, sir.Copy !req
422. To be honest,
I'm bucking for detective.Copy !req
423. No shit.Copy !req
424. - No.
- Ha, ha.Copy !req
425. Hold it.Copy !req
426. What the hell are you doing?Copy !req
427. Oh, Christ.Copy !req
428. Quick, get in here.Copy !req
429. Hey!Copy !req
430. I'm a police officer. Get over there.Copy !req
431. Hey! It's me, Serpico!Copy !req
432. Hey, I'm a police officer.
Police officer.Copy !req
433. I'm an officer. I'm a police officer.Copy !req
434. Jesus, Frank, how was I
supposed to recognize you?Copy !req
435. - You stupid fuck.
- Frank, I didn't know you.Copy !req
436. You didn't know me?
You fire without looking?Copy !req
437. You fire without a warning?
Without a fucking brain in your head?Copy !req
438. Oh, shit.Copy !req
439. If I buy one, you motherfucker,
I'm not gonna buy it from you.Copy !req
440. Holy shit, look at that mess.Copy !req
441. - Filling out forms till next month.
- Good.Copy !req
442. Hey, Jesus, Frank...Copy !req
443. I know it's a hell of a time
to ask you.Copy !req
444. I'll have to go through
that ballistics bullshit.Copy !req
445. - You should.
- It'll look like hell...Copy !req
446. if I don't have anything
to show for it.Copy !req
447. Frank, do me a favor.Copy !req
448. Give us the collar?Copy !req
449. You motherfucker.Copy !req
450. You want the collar, huh?Copy !req
451. You don't wanna
fill out forms, right?Copy !req
452. Go ahead.Copy !req
453. - You're a buddy.
- Oh, I'm a buddy.Copy !req
454. Only you tell Tolkin I gave it to you.Copy !req
455. I am passing out these marijuana
cigarettes for you to sample...Copy !req
456. so that when you become
plainclothes men...Copy !req
457. you'll be able to identify
the pungent aroma...Copy !req
458. and recognize the disorienting
effect of the drug...Copy !req
459. when you observe them
in narcotics suspects.Copy !req
460. Among users of the drug...Copy !req
461. a marijuana cigarette
is referred to as:Copy !req
462. Reefer, stick, roach, joint.Copy !req
463. The drug itself is referred to as:Copy !req
464. - Pot, tea, boo, stuff, grass.
- Boo.Copy !req
465. Hey, this is real good shit.Copy !req
466. I gotta have something to eat.
Oh, look what it is. Look what it is.Copy !req
467. It's a potato factory, is what it is.
I have to have some because I love it.Copy !req
468. I have to have some of that.
We have nothing to—?Copy !req
469. - I have to have a dime?
- The dime goes in the little slot there.Copy !req
470. That doesn't work.
It's from the Civil War, this machine.Copy !req
471. - Pull on it.
- Doesn't. Doesn't. Doesn't.Copy !req
472. - Go ahead. Go ahead.
- Shoot it out.Copy !req
473. Please, I beg of you.
Come out, potatoes, come out.Copy !req
474. - You're pretty fucking weird for a cop.
- Me?Copy !req
475. - You. What about you, buddy?
- Me?Copy !req
476. - You're a fucking hippie.
- It's beautiful, though.Copy !req
477. The two of us.Copy !req
478. Give me. Unh!Copy !req
479. Where you supposed to go
from here?Copy !req
480. Nine-three Precinct, Plainclothes.Copy !req
481. Put your gun away.Copy !req
482. You?Copy !req
483. I'm scheduled to go
on special assignment...Copy !req
484. with the mayor's Department
of Investigations, Detective Squad.Copy !req
485. - That's a gold shield.
- Yeah.Copy !req
486. No four years in Plainclothes?Copy !req
487. - Who do you know?
- It's my business to know people.Copy !req
488. People who can help.Copy !req
489. Unfair.Copy !req
490. Unfair.Copy !req
491. Life is unfair, man.Copy !req
492. I mean, look, you've got
a feel for the streets, and I, uh...Copy !req
493. - I got a feel for the politics, I guess.
- Oh, yeah?Copy !req
494. You and me in one Batmobile,
we could clean up the city in no time.Copy !req
495. I wonder if we can get candy
out of this machine, though.Copy !req
496. No, thanks.Copy !req
497. Well, this is a good place to tell you,
Paco.Copy !req
498. You know that guy in Texas
I was telling you about?Copy !req
499. Yeah.Copy !req
500. - What about him?
- I'm gonna marry him in two months.Copy !req
501. Unless you marry me.Copy !req
502. What about the, uh, theater
and your dancing?Copy !req
503. A girl has to get married sometime.Copy !req
504. Well, you're a long way
from "sometime," Leslie.Copy !req
505. I thought you were committed.Copy !req
506. - I am, but—
- Mm-hm.Copy !req
507. You are but...?Copy !req
508. I can go on working, studying there.Copy !req
509. Where? Fort Worth?Copy !req
510. Amarillo.Copy !req
511. Amarillo?Copy !req
512. Well, am I invited to the wedding?Copy !req
513. I'll ask Roy.Copy !req
514. Yeah, it's pretty good
in this precinct.Copy !req
515. Here you go.Copy !req
516. Usually a 9-to-5 day is the best time
for policy and bookmaking.Copy !req
517. But if you have to work nights,
like a liquor violation, just call in.Copy !req
518. Don't worry about quotas right now.Copy !req
519. A couple of hooker collars
will keep it cool.Copy !req
520. Serpico...Copy !req
521. been holding this for you.Copy !req
522. It's from Jewish Max.Copy !req
523. First day on the precinct, I get that.Copy !req
524. This is great, Frank.Copy !req
525. I can open a whole
can of peas with this.Copy !req
526. It's scary.Copy !req
527. - I wanna protect myself.
- Okay.Copy !req
528. - You know what we do with this?
- What?Copy !req
529. We take it to Inspector Kellogg.Copy !req
530. - Kellogg?
- Yeah.Copy !req
531. Kellogg? Didn't he used to be
in Plainclothes?Copy !req
532. Second highest ranking cop in the
whole Department of Investigations.Copy !req
533. So what?Copy !req
534. I happened to be instrumental
in getting the man his job.Copy !req
535. He owes me, you understand?Copy !req
536. He's the most honest cop
I know, Frank.Copy !req
537. Frank...Copy !req
538. trust me.Copy !req
539. Things like this were common practice
in the bad old days.Copy !req
540. Hard to believe it's still going on.Copy !req
541. Serpico, don't you think
it's kind of stupid...Copy !req
542. taking an envelope from somebody
you didn't know?Copy !req
543. What was I supposed to do?
I mean, give me—Copy !req
544. - How would I know what was in it?
You, uh...Copy !req
545. You have two alternatives:Copy !req
546. Force me to take you to
the commissioner of investigations.Copy !req
547. - He'll drag you in front of a grand jury.
- I don't want that.Copy !req
548. Oh, I can understand that.Copy !req
549. Word will get out.Copy !req
550. Before it's all over...Copy !req
551. they'll find you facedown
in the East River.Copy !req
552. What's the other alternative?Copy !req
553. Forget it.Copy !req
554. Well, what do I do with this?Copy !req
555. Hey, sarge?
Yeah?Copy !req
556. Got a minute?Copy !req
557. Yeah.Copy !req
558. A colored cop gave me this.
I didn't know what to do with it.Copy !req
559. Well, I'll send it on
to the Benevolent Association.Copy !req
560. Alfie.Copy !req
561. Is that Björling?Copy !req
562. No. It's di Stefano.Copy !req
563. I was sure it was Björling.Copy !req
564. No.Copy !req
565. You can hear it better over here.Copy !req
566. - That's an invitation, right?
- Right.Copy !req
567. With coffee.Copy !req
568. I have to take a rain check.
I'm due at the hospital.Copy !req
569. Why don't you call in sick?
Perfect place.Copy !req
570. Not me.Copy !req
571. You dedicated or something?Copy !req
572. That's right, I'm dedicated.Copy !req
573. - Most men can't stand it.
- Well, what do they know?Copy !req
574. I like your garden.Copy !req
575. Hey.Copy !req
576. Love my garden.Copy !req
577. Okay. I love your garden.Copy !req
578. You know what they say, don't you?Copy !req
579. No, what do they say?Copy !req
580. If you love a man's garden,
you gotta love the man.Copy !req
581. You like her, Alfie?Copy !req
582. All I can tell you, sir,
is I gave it back.Copy !req
583. I gotta get out of the 93.Copy !req
584. Well, what happened
on your, uh, Narcotics application?Copy !req
585. It looked like it was set until I told them
I was in Plainclothes, and that was it.Copy !req
586. It was like the kiss of death. They think
everybody in Clothes is on the take.Copy !req
587. Sir, do you know anything
about the Bronx 7th Division?Copy !req
588. I mean, I can go there if I want.
But if it's the same shit, screw it.Copy !req
589. I'd rather answer phones, uh, for Spanish
Communications Unit and go nuts.Copy !req
590. Come on, Alfie.Copy !req
591. Frank...Copy !req
592. did anyone ever tell you that you
have a tendency towards self-pity?Copy !req
593. - No, you're the first.
- All right.Copy !req
594. Frank, I have a friend up there.
Roy Palmer, an administrative officer.Copy !req
595. I'll speak with him.Copy !req
596. - Good. Thank you, sir.
- Bye, Frank.Copy !req
597. - God bless you.
- Right.Copy !req
598. Yeah?
McCLAIN Frank?Copy !req
599. - Uh, Captain McClain here.
- Oh, Captain McClain.Copy !req
600. - Could you hold on a minute, please?
Sure.Copy !req
601. - Yeah. Sorry.
Frank.Copy !req
602. I, uh, saw Inspector Palmer tonight.Copy !req
603. And he assures me the 7th Division
is as clean as a hound's tooth.Copy !req
604. His words, Frank.
"Clean as a hound's tooth."Copy !req
605. - Oh, yeah?
I told him he'd get a hard worker.Copy !req
606. Wears a beard, speaks Spanish...Copy !req
607. and would make a superb
undercover man. He was delighted.Copy !req
608. That's good news, sir. Thank you.Copy !req
609. - Thank you very much.
Goodbye, Frank. God bless.Copy !req
610. When did you start doing that?Copy !req
611. McClain says that Palmer says...Copy !req
612. that the 7th is
"as clean as a hound's tooth."Copy !req
613. Well, if that's true,
your problems are over.Copy !req
614. Plainclothes Division?Copy !req
615. Upstairs.Copy !req
616. - Hey, Frank.
Keough.Copy !req
617. - How are you? Good to see you.
All right.Copy !req
618. We heard you were coming.Copy !req
619. Hey, listen, say hello to Nate Smith,
Frank Serpico.Copy !req
620. - Jamie Morales, Frank Serpico.
- Serpico.Copy !req
621. Hey, baby, you'll love it here.
It's beautiful.Copy !req
622. I'll see youse later, right?
Take a little ride with me.Copy !req
623. - I gotta make a collar.
I should check in first.Copy !req
624. Fuck that. Come on.Copy !req
625. Ten on Dallas, if Minnesota.
Right.Copy !req
626. Green Bay, 12 and a half—Copy !req
627. You dumb fuck.
We told you this location's hot.Copy !req
628. - We told you to stay the fuck out.
- Keough...Copy !req
629. nobody told me. Honest.Copy !req
630. Bullshit.Copy !req
631. - Come on, let's take a walk.
Hi, kid.Copy !req
632. - All right, a C-note apiece.
- No way.Copy !req
633. We got a complaint, right, Frank?
Come on.Copy !req
634. All right,
make it 200, Keough.Copy !req
635. Hey, what are you, getting cheap
in your old age, bambino?Copy !req
636. - Three.
Three?Copy !req
637. You heard me.Copy !req
638. - All right, 3.
- I'll tell you what. I'll make it light.Copy !req
639. - Hey, Frank.
Yeah.Copy !req
640. You wanna write this up?Copy !req
641. No, I'm gonna check in.Copy !req
642. Take the collar. Get on the sheet.Copy !req
643. I better check in.Copy !req
644. Hey, Frank.Copy !req
645. We gotta have a little talk later,
right?Copy !req
646. That dumb schmuck only came up
with 2 bills because I booked him.Copy !req
647. Here you go, Frank.Copy !req
648. No, it was your collar. Keep it.Copy !req
649. I had a hunch
you weren't gonna take it.Copy !req
650. You know, Frankie, we got a call
about you from downtown.Copy !req
651. Now, I ain't saying who.Copy !req
652. They just said
you couldn't be trusted, you know.Copy !req
653. - Because I don't take money, right?
- Hey, Frank.Copy !req
654. Face it. Who can trust a cop
who don't take money?Copy !req
655. I mean, you are pretty weird,
you know, kid.Copy !req
656. And with that call, the guys were
getting a little worried.Copy !req
657. I told them you're okay,
I knew you from the old 21.Copy !req
658. You'd never hurt another cop.Copy !req
659. Right?Copy !req
660. You'd never hurt another cop,
would you, Frank?Copy !req
661. - That'd depend on what he did.
- That's the wrong answer, Frankie.Copy !req
662. Frankie.Copy !req
663. We're not doing anything bad here.
Skimming a little gambling money.Copy !req
664. It's clean. It's not dope.Copy !req
665. It hurts nobody.Copy !req
666. Frank...Copy !req
667. a gambler is a gentleman.
They're gonna operate anyhow, right?Copy !req
668. You don't have to explain yourself.
You do what you gotta do.Copy !req
669. - Want some tea?
- No, I don't like that shit.Copy !req
670. How about coffee, huh?Copy !req
671. What's the matter, Frank?
What are you worried about?Copy !req
672. Listen, we don't go overboard here.Copy !req
673. We're not sloppy, we're careful.
The spics, the niggers, we bust them.Copy !req
674. They operate so dumb and sloppy.Copy !req
675. They get your ass in hot water.Copy !req
676. But the Italians,
now, that's a different story.Copy !req
677. They're men of their word.
They're reliable, Frankie.Copy !req
678. - Really got it analyzed, huh.
- You're fucking right I got it analyzed.Copy !req
679. You know how much
the nut's running now, Frankie?Copy !req
680. - No, I wouldn't know that.
- Eight hundred dollars a month.Copy !req
681. That's 800 clams every time
your girlfriend gets the curse.Copy !req
682. Tax free.Copy !req
683. Now, here's the beauty.
You don't get it the first eight weeks.Copy !req
684. Till the guys get to know you,
and you're okay.Copy !req
685. But you don't lose either.Copy !req
686. Because you get it on the other end
when you leave the division.Copy !req
687. Frankie, it's like severance pay.Copy !req
688. Think it over, all right? In or out.Copy !req
689. Look at me. Shaking.Copy !req
690. All my life I wanted to be a cop.
It's like I can remember nothing else.Copy !req
691. I remember this one time.Copy !req
692. There was, uh...Copy !req
693. Something happened.
A domestic argument or something.Copy !req
694. Somebody stabbed somebody.Copy !req
695. And...Copy !req
696. there was this crowd
around this tenement.Copy !req
697. I must've been 9, 10 years old.
I was this big.Copy !req
698. I went over to see what was going on.
I noticed a red light...Copy !req
699. going around and around.Copy !req
700. All these people, and I couldn't see.Copy !req
701. And I kept saying:Copy !req
702. "You know what's going on?
Do you know?"Copy !req
703. Nobody knew.Copy !req
704. And it was, like,
the big mystery behind that...Copy !req
705. That crowd there.Copy !req
706. All of a sudden...Copy !req
707. the crowd just parted.Copy !req
708. Like the Red Sea, you see.Copy !req
709. And there were these guys in blue.
And I said:Copy !req
710. "They know."Copy !req
711. What do they know?
What do they know?Copy !req
712. It's amazing.Copy !req
713. It's incredible.Copy !req
714. But I feel like a criminal
because I don't take money.Copy !req
715. You get so tense
when you talk about it.Copy !req
716. - I wonder why.
- Come here.Copy !req
717. - Right there.
- Here?Copy !req
718. Uh-huh.Copy !req
719. - I'm gonna ask you a question, okay?
- Okay.Copy !req
720. Do you like cops?Copy !req
721. You're my first.Copy !req
722. No, I mean,
all this shit I've been telling you.Copy !req
723. - Do you believe it?
- Why not?Copy !req
724. - Does it shock you?
- Not much.Copy !req
725. What's the matter with me?Copy !req
726. Everybody knows about cops.Copy !req
727. Did you ever hear
the story The Wise King?Copy !req
728. No. But I got the feeling
I'm gonna hear it.Copy !req
729. Well, there was this king,
and he ruled over his kingdom.Copy !req
730. - Yeah.
- Right in the middle of the kingdom...Copy !req
731. there was a well.
That's where everybody drank.Copy !req
732. - Mm-hm.
- One night...Copy !req
733. this witch came along.Copy !req
734. And she poisoned the well.Copy !req
735. Ah.Copy !req
736. And the next day, everybody
drank from it except the king.Copy !req
737. And they all went crazy.Copy !req
738. They got together in the street
and they said:Copy !req
739. "We gotta get rid of the king
because the king is mad."Copy !req
740. Uh-oh.
- Ha, ha.Copy !req
741. And then that night, he went down
and he drank from the well.Copy !req
742. And the next day
all the people rejoiced...Copy !req
743. because their king had regained
his reason.Copy !req
744. - You're trying to tell me something.
- Me?Copy !req
745. Yeah.Copy !req
746. Frank, say hello to somebody.
Hey, grab your cocks and grab your socks.Copy !req
747. - What the fuck is this?
Ha, ha.Copy !req
748. Frank Serpico.
Say hello to Don Rubello.Copy !req
749. He's gonna be your new partner.Copy !req
750. Look, if you don't wanna work with
this fucking nut for some reason...Copy !req
751. I'll buddy up with him, all right?Copy !req
752. And go through all that crap
changing assignments? No, no.Copy !req
753. We'll be okay. We're paisanos, eh?Copy !req
754. - What's with the fucking mouse?
- He's my partner.Copy !req
755. - Partner?
He's specially trained.Copy !req
756. He goes to track down heroin.Copy !req
757. Let him loose.
He goes into the hole, brings it back...Copy !req
758. sniffs it out, brings it to you.Copy !req
759. Yeah, I heard of that.Copy !req
760. - You heard of that?
Yeah.Copy !req
761. This guy I'm looking for, Vernon.Copy !req
762. He's a numbers collector
who ain't been meeting his obligations.Copy !req
763. He won't be hard to spot.
He's a mover. This is prime time.Copy !req
764. Since we're partners,
you gotta know the situation.Copy !req
765. Straight off.Copy !req
766. I collect for the division.Copy !req
767. Me and two other bagmen.Copy !req
768. That's what Keough
was sort of hinting at.Copy !req
769. Yeah, the three of us pick up
the payoff twice a month.Copy !req
770. Hey. Look, there he is.Copy !req
771. Son of a bitch!Copy !req
772. Look out! Oh, my God!Copy !req
773. Where's the money?Copy !req
774. You been jerking me around, you fuck. Huh?Copy !req
775. I know I'm behind now, man.Copy !req
776. Three times
you never show, right?Copy !req
777. I'll have it for you tonight.Copy !req
778. I swear. I'll have it for you tonight.
Don't bust me.Copy !req
779. The last time, Vernon. The last time.Copy !req
780. You fuck me and you're gone,
you hear? You hear, huh? Huh?Copy !req
781. See you at the Domino. Midnight.Copy !req
782. And you better have $300, you fuck.
You hear? Right?Copy !req
783. Right?Copy !req
784. All right, Frank.Copy !req
785. Huh? Huh? Heh.Copy !req
786. I keep this place for socializing.Copy !req
787. Someday I'll get a couple
of broads, huh? Have a little party.Copy !req
788. Make some ice.
Booze is right over here.Copy !req
789. So, what do you think, Frank?
About the money.Copy !req
790. Look, Don.Copy !req
791. If I was broke, if I had a family,
I don't know.Copy !req
792. But I'm not broke,
and I don't have a family.Copy !req
793. Why stick my neck out,
know what I mean?Copy !req
794. It's already out, Frank,
not taking the money.Copy !req
795. Better the other guys
don't know that.Copy !req
796. Hey, I tell you what I'll do.Copy !req
797. I'll hold your share for you, huh?Copy !req
798. You change your mind,
it'll be right in here.Copy !req
799. Right in here.
Right down to the penny, huh?Copy !req
800. Look at that.Copy !req
801. - What are you drinking?
- Give me a Scotch.Copy !req
802. Next thing I wanna do, get a color TV,
you know, for the games.Copy !req
803. Heh. Hey, how about some gin,
penny a point?Copy !req
804. Hello, Frank. Get in.Copy !req
805. My God, Frank.
This is confidential.Copy !req
806. He's a police officer.Copy !req
807. - I thought maybe he could sit in.
- No, absolutely not.Copy !req
808. All right, all right.Copy !req
809. Frank, I notified Commissioner Delaney
about everything you told me.Copy !req
810. He wants you to stay
right where you are...Copy !req
811. and continue to collect information.
Then you'll be his eyes and his ears.Copy !req
812. He said he was delighted that, quote:Copy !req
813. "A man of integrity had surfaced,"
unquote.Copy !req
814. When do I hear from him?Copy !req
815. Well, he said he'd reach out for you
when the time comes.Copy !req
816. - "Reach out"?
- Mm-hm.Copy !req
817. See, my situation's
pretty fucking sticky up there.Copy !req
818. - What am I supposed to do? Wait?
- You must have patience, Frank.Copy !req
819. - Yeah, but it's pretty fucking st—
- Patience and faith.Copy !req
820. When a man like the commissioner
says he'll get in touch with you...Copy !req
821. he'll get in touch with you.Copy !req
822. Goodbye, son. God bless you.Copy !req
823. All right, now.Copy !req
824. Marinda's too hot. We gotta
lay off him for a couple of months.Copy !req
825. And Falco's got two runners
he ain't paying for.Copy !req
826. Check that fucking guy out, huh?
Hey, Frankie, how are you?Copy !req
827. Listen, Rubello's being transferred.
You'll have to work with a new bagman.Copy !req
828. Al Sarno, I want you to meet Frank
Serpico. This will be your new man.Copy !req
829. Hi.
Hi.Copy !req
830. You know that operation down
by Hunt's Point, the new one?Copy !req
831. What are we gonna do?
Who do we give it to?Copy !req
832. You the new bagman, you prick?Copy !req
833. What happened to Rubello,
you son of a bitch?Copy !req
834. - You mother—
Wait a minute.Copy !req
835. You know, Frank,
sometimes I ask myself:Copy !req
836. "What the fuck am I doing?"Copy !req
837. You know, if this ever came out...Copy !req
838. Christ, my family...Copy !req
839. My daughter.Copy !req
840. She just started
with the San Francisco Opera.Copy !req
841. Chorus.Copy !req
842. Took a lot of money.Copy !req
843. I once tried to pull out.Copy !req
844. Christ, they were all over me.Copy !req
845. So you...Copy !req
846. just go along.Copy !req
847. Unless you're willing
to go back to uniform duty.Copy !req
848. Shit. How the money rolls in.Copy !req
849. - Here. Let me give you yours now.
- No, I'm not on.Copy !req
850. - What do you mean, you're not on?
- I'm not on, I don't take money.Copy !req
851. - Some gag. Here.
- No, I told you straight.Copy !req
852. I don't take money. That's the truth.Copy !req
853. - What were you doing with Rubello?
- Ask Rubello.Copy !req
854. Your nut...Copy !req
855. - ... where's it been going?
- Ask Rubello.Copy !req
856. All right, then, sir.
I'll go to Delaney myself, then.Copy !req
857. That would not be advisable, Frank.Copy !req
858. You don't understand, captain.
You see, it's been weeks, not a word.Copy !req
859. I understand perfectly, Frank.Copy !req
860. - No, but— Now they know I'm not on.
- I've done all I can do.Copy !req
861. Goodbye, Frank.Copy !req
862. He's out.Copy !req
863. Won't do another fucking thing.Copy !req
864. Blair, I'm telling you, nothing's
gonna happen from the inside.Copy !req
865. The top guys have been cops
too long.Copy !req
866. - You haven't heard from Delaney?
- No, not a fucking word.Copy !req
867. Are you willing to go
outside the department?Copy !req
868. Where could we go?Copy !req
869. Would you believe
the mayor's office?Copy !req
870. - The mayor's office?
- His right-hand man.Copy !req
871. A guy named Jerry Berman
from Princeton.Copy !req
872. You knew I know somebody.
That's the somebody I know.Copy !req
873. And he cares, Frank.
He really cares.Copy !req
874. - You know what we're doing?
- Yeah.Copy !req
875. - We're going outside the department.
- That's right.Copy !req
876. Dynamite. Every plainclothes man
in the division...Copy !req
877. and one, maybe two, lieutenants?Copy !req
878. Heh. That's— That is dynamite.Copy !req
879. That is incredible.Copy !req
880. That is 150—Copy !req
881. That is $250,000 a year,
but that is just one precinct.Copy !req
882. That is amazing.Copy !req
883. See, what I feel is needed here is,
you know, like, a real investigation.Copy !req
884. And I am sure that the mayor
will see this immediately.Copy !req
885. McClain and Delaney,
they have done nothing?Copy !req
886. Oh, man, that is amazing.Copy !req
887. Another— Another thing, see...Copy !req
888. in a couple of days, they're
gonna have a meeting of the pad.Copy !req
889. - Frank is in a very tough spot.
- I can see that.Copy !req
890. Rumors. See, I have heard rumors.
But never touching it directly.Copy !req
891. And for an on-the-line cop
to come forward like this is beautiful.Copy !req
892. Really, Frank, I mean,
you have my respect...Copy !req
893. and my sympathy for what you've
been going through, man. Wow.Copy !req
894. Hello, this is Jerry Berman.
Is he there?Copy !req
895. All right, I'll hold on.Copy !req
896. Well?Copy !req
897. Tell me what happened, Paco.Copy !req
898. I'd like a drink.Copy !req
899. That guy's gonna go to the mayor.Copy !req
900. - To the mayor.
- Ha, ha.Copy !req
901. Come here, Alfie. We're all gonna go
to the mayor together, you know that?Copy !req
902. I couldn't be any more embarrassed.Copy !req
903. It's like a personal defeat.Copy !req
904. However...Copy !req
905. there are priorities.Copy !req
906. What are the priorities, Jerry?Copy !req
907. The priorities are a long,
hot summer ahead...Copy !req
908. and riots are expected.Copy !req
909. And the mayor cannot
alienate the police force.Copy !req
910. Now, in the fall...Copy !req
911. Now, in the fall, it may be possible
to take another look at the situation.Copy !req
912. All right, all right. I'm sorry.Copy !req
913. Frank.Copy !req
914. All rotten.Copy !req
915. Chickenshit.Copy !req
916. The whole fucking system's corrupt.Copy !req
917. - Who's there?
It's me, Frank, I gotta talk to you.Copy !req
918. You know, Frank, you're behaving like
a goddamn child, do you hear?Copy !req
919. Let him in.Copy !req
920. You let him in.Copy !req
921. Hi.
- Hello.Copy !req
922. I'm sorry, Frank, I'm sorry
I got you into the whole thing.Copy !req
923. Bullshit. I got me
into this whole thing.Copy !req
924. "Wow,"amazing,"
"dynamite,"beautiful."Copy !req
925. "Dynamite."Priorities, priorities."Copy !req
926. You and your big-deal friends.Copy !req
927. Your contacts,
your big bullshit names.Copy !req
928. Bob Blair, the big operator
from Princeton. Huh?Copy !req
929. The mystery man with connections,
the line to the mayor.Copy !req
930. Who do you think you are,
you son of a bitch?Copy !req
931. You come looking for help, whining,
with your humble-pie act...Copy !req
932. the saint, the injured innocent.Copy !req
933. Who told you the department or the
whole world was a Boy Scout camp?Copy !req
934. What do you expect,
for chrissake? A magician?Copy !req
935. A big daddy? White knight rides
in on a horse, snaps his fingers...Copy !req
936. - You keep talking.
- ... the world turns white...Copy !req
937. while the pope's choir sings
"Ave Maria"? Is that it?Copy !req
938. I tried to help you.Copy !req
939. You're gonna blame me because those
bastards don't wanna get involved?Copy !req
940. - I got my head handed to me.
- Where's your head?Copy !req
941. - On your shoulders, I see.
- You don't look so hot.Copy !req
942. What's all this shit over here?Copy !req
943. Get ready to blow up again.
I got another idea.Copy !req
944. You and your ideas
are as full of shit as you are.Copy !req
945. Right on cue.
- Right on cue.Copy !req
946. We could talk to Foreman,
the commissioner of investigations.Copy !req
947. Another guy.
We got another guy here.Copy !req
948. We could even talk to a guy I know
on the The New York Times.Copy !req
949. Oh, that's terrific.Copy !req
950. Go to the Times.Copy !req
951. Every time I talk to you, Blair, 20 more
people know about it, you know that?Copy !req
952. - Frank, it's safe.
- It's safe?Copy !req
953. - My ass on the line, it's safe?
- Your ass is already on the line.Copy !req
954. - That's my business, all right?
- You don't trust me?Copy !req
955. - I don't trust you.
- Go fuck yourself.Copy !req
956. Fuck you.Copy !req
957. Look, when I come home,
I want a house clean.Copy !req
958. - Don't take it out on me, Paco.
- I'm not. I don't wanna pick up shit.Copy !req
959. Honey?Copy !req
960. Come to bed.Copy !req
961. - Hello, Frank.
- Hey, Frank.Copy !req
962. All right, we all know
what this is about, right?Copy !req
963. So without any bullshit,
Frank, what was happening...Copy !req
964. between you and Don Rubello?Copy !req
965. Simple. I didn't take any money,
I don't take money.Copy !req
966. Rubello said if I changed
my mind, he would hold my share.Copy !req
967. Uh, he'd give it back to me.Copy !req
968. - I didn't change my mind.
- Conniving bastard.Copy !req
969. All right, look, I'll handle Rubello.Copy !req
970. I'll get back the money he took.
But this ain't gonna happen again.Copy !req
971. From now on, no more three bagmen.Copy !req
972. Starting today, every one of you fucks
makes his own collections.Copy !req
973. - No stops, no bread. Okay?
- Okay.Copy !req
974. - Right.
- You got it.Copy !req
975. What about you, Frank?
I'll make up what Don took from you.Copy !req
976. Why should I start now?Copy !req
977. Everybody would feel a lot better
about you.Copy !req
978. You can always give it
to charity, Frank.Copy !req
979. Look, Frank. What do you say,
100 a month just for expenses?Copy !req
980. For my secretary and my
business lunches, entertainment?Copy !req
981. All right, all right.Copy !req
982. We split Frank's share from now on.Copy !req
983. You're a schmuck, Frank.Copy !req
984. If they would take all that energy, see,
and put it into straight police work...Copy !req
985. we'd have the city cleaned in a week.
It'd be cleaned up, there'd be no crime.Copy !req
986. If I could work alone,
that's the thing, see.Copy !req
987. If I could just get— Work alone.Copy !req
988. They don't like that.
They don't want that.Copy !req
989. - They wanna suck you in.
You go over the same thing, Paco.Copy !req
990. They're so fucking corrupt.
Everybody, everyone.Copy !req
991. Nobody giving a shit.
There's gotta be a way to wipe it out.Copy !req
992. - Goddamn it, there's gotta be a way.
- Let's get out for a while, huh?Copy !req
993. - Let's go to a movie.
- Quit handling me.Copy !req
994. What are you doing? Go to a movie.
How am I gonna go?Copy !req
995. You know they'd kill me
if they knew?Copy !req
996. - You think that hasn't happened?
- Either you're exploding or catatonic.Copy !req
997. - I can't stand it, Paco.
- You don't give a shit, right?Copy !req
998. All I care about is you.
That's all that matters to me.Copy !req
999. That's why it hurts so much.
I can't stand to see you like this.Copy !req
1000. Scared, miserable,
dreading to go to work.Copy !req
1001. It's tearing me apart.Copy !req
1002. And then I get sick of hearing
about it, and I start hating myself.Copy !req
1003. You didn't like my being a cop,
so don't give me that. You never did.Copy !req
1004. I love you, Paco.Copy !req
1005. I wanna marry you.
I wanna have children with you.Copy !req
1006. - Goddamn it! I hate it!
- If you hate it so much...Copy !req
1007. - ... why don't you get out.
- Why don't you!Copy !req
1008. - It's crossed my mind.
- Well, do it.Copy !req
1009. What do you got?Copy !req
1010. - Would you bust whitey?
- Try me. Try me.Copy !req
1011. This guy's heavy.Copy !req
1012. He's Italian. Mobbed up.Copy !req
1013. - Still interested?
- Stop fucking around.Copy !req
1014. I'm not in the mood. Come on.Copy !req
1015. He's a loan shark.
Runs a big numbers operation.Copy !req
1016. This mother's so cocksure...Copy !req
1017. he picks up his own slips
while he's collecting his loans.Copy !req
1018. Where's the drop?Copy !req
1019. Hold it.Copy !req
1020. I'm a police officer.Copy !req
1021. Wait a minute.Copy !req
1022. You're under arrest.Copy !req
1023. - Hell, I thought you was some junkie.
- Yeah, I'll take that wad in your pocket.Copy !req
1024. - You're a riot, kid.
- I know, I'm a joke. What do you got?Copy !req
1025. What's that?Copy !req
1026. Put that away, or you're in more
trouble. Give me the keys to your car.Copy !req
1027. Where they been hiding you, kid?Copy !req
1028. Wouldn't you like to know?Copy !req
1029. Hold this guy for booking.
Get a rap sheet on him.Copy !req
1030. I'm gonna search his car.Copy !req
1031. Where's Corsaro?Copy !req
1032. Smith took him upstairs.Copy !req
1033. I swear to God I thought this guy
was some fucking junkie.Copy !req
1034. You know, listen, Rudy,
you should see some of the—Copy !req
1035. Hey, you.Copy !req
1036. - Hey, who?
- You.Copy !req
1037. - Get over here and empty your pockets.
- I don't do that.Copy !req
1038. You're my prisoner, you do
what I tell you. Get over here.Copy !req
1039. - He's gonna get nasty about it.
- You're fucking right.Copy !req
1040. Frank, cool it, huh?Copy !req
1041. Don't play me, motherfucker.
Spread.Copy !req
1042. Frank. Hey, Frank.
Rudy's on, he's good people.Copy !req
1043. Stay the fuck out of this!Copy !req
1044. What's this? What's this?Copy !req
1045. Serpico.Copy !req
1046. Got that record check on Corsaro.Copy !req
1047. Wanna read something?Copy !req
1048. It's about your pal Corsaro.Copy !req
1049. Here, read it. Read it.Copy !req
1050. He did 15 years. You know what for?Copy !req
1051. For killing a cop.
He's a fucking cop-killer.Copy !req
1052. Good to see you.
- I've had it. I'm finished.Copy !req
1053. - What's wrong?
- I can't take it, I gotta get out.Copy !req
1054. If I have to go back to uniform,
I'm going back.Copy !req
1055. I can't wait for Delaney,
and I can't play their game.Copy !req
1056. - I'm right in the middle.
- The commissioner didn't get in touch?Copy !req
1057. No, he didn't get in touch with me.
No investigation, no undercover work.Copy !req
1058. I had no idea, Frank.Copy !req
1059. Well, captain, I think it's only fair to
tell you I've been to outside agencies.Copy !req
1060. - I'm gonna go to more if I have to.
- What outside agencies?Copy !req
1061. Holy Mother of God.Copy !req
1062. Frank, we wash
our own laundry around here.Copy !req
1063. - You could be charged for this.
- I thought so...Copy !req
1064. - ... but we do not wash our own laundry.
- You are in trouble, Serpico.Copy !req
1065. I don't care. I don't care
who gets it, including myself.Copy !req
1066. - If I have to go to outside agencies—
- You stay away from outside agencies.Copy !req
1067. - Where am I gonna go?
- Stay away.Copy !req
1068. - Where am I gonna go?
- Wait until you hear from me.Copy !req
1069. - Been waiting.
- I'll get back to you.Copy !req
1070. That's not enough.
- I'll get back.Copy !req
1071. Where am I gonna go?Copy !req
1072. It's my life, you fuck!Copy !req
1073. Serpico.Copy !req
1074. See Inspector Palmer.Copy !req
1075. For this precinct,
cases reported of murder...Copy !req
1076. 14 for August,
20 for September, 20 for—Copy !req
1077. Serpico.Copy !req
1078. Inspector Palmer?Copy !req
1079. Deputy Chief Inspector Daley
and Inspector Gilbert...Copy !req
1080. are waiting to see you.Copy !req
1081. You wanna come to my office.Copy !req
1082. Captain McClain called me.Copy !req
1083. I briefed Inspector Daley and
Inspector Gilbert on your allegations.Copy !req
1084. Now, the obvious question is this:
In all these months...Copy !req
1085. why didn't you come to us?Copy !req
1086. Well . . ..Copy !req
1087. Uh...Copy !req
1088. I never met these gentlemen
before, sir.Copy !req
1089. Uh, you told—Copy !req
1090. I mean, you— You—Copy !req
1091. You told Captain McClain that the
division was clean as a hound's tooth.Copy !req
1092. You think you're the only honest cop
on the force, Serpico?Copy !req
1093. My record's clear.Copy !req
1094. Inspector Gilbert's come
from the commissioner's...Copy !req
1095. Confidential Investigation Unit.Copy !req
1096. Well, then you must
have heard something.Copy !req
1097. I don't understand.Copy !req
1098. Commissioner Delaney has known
about this from the beginning.Copy !req
1099. I didn't hear a thing.Copy !req
1100. But, uh, I understand your frustration,
Frank, believe me. Heh.Copy !req
1101. I mean, it's, uh, sort of like trying to punch
your way out of a paper bag, right?Copy !req
1102. What outside agencies
have you been to, Frank?Copy !req
1103. I don't see how that's pertinent
to my allegations.Copy !req
1104. I think we ought to ask Serpico
directly if he's gonna cooperate or not.Copy !req
1105. - Come on, George.
- We've gotta know...Copy !req
1106. if there's any real basis
for an investigation.Copy !req
1107. Well, I— I'll have to think that—Copy !req
1108. I'll have to think about that.Copy !req
1109. What is there to think about?Copy !req
1110. I don't see how the division
can investigate itself.Copy !req
1111. You got a point there.Copy !req
1112. But you would cooperate
with an impartial investigation, right?Copy !req
1113. Yeah. Up to a point.Copy !req
1114. As long as I'm not involved.Copy !req
1115. I just wanna go someplace
where I can do my job.Copy !req
1116. That's fair enough.Copy !req
1117. We'll be in touch.Copy !req
1118. Inspector Palmer,
can I see you a minute?Copy !req
1119. Was it necessary to let everyone know
I was coming here to see these guys?Copy !req
1120. You believe that a full-scale
investigation is warranted?Copy !req
1121. Yes, Commissioner Delaney.Copy !req
1122. Go to it.Copy !req
1123. But, sir...Copy !req
1124. shouldn't Headquarters
handle something like this?Copy !req
1125. No.Copy !req
1126. You're all experienced men.Copy !req
1127. Chief Gallagher here will be
available for consultation.Copy !req
1128. Commissioner, uh...Copy !req
1129. Serpico claims that, uh...Copy !req
1130. Inspector McClain talked to you
about this whole thing some time ago.Copy !req
1131. Yes.Copy !req
1132. I seem to remember
something about that.Copy !req
1133. We can't set up a surveillance on
somewhere over by Crotona Park.Copy !req
1134. We need a location.Copy !req
1135. I've given you 36 locations
that are paying off.Copy !req
1136. Now, what do you want? The whole
thing signed, sealed, delivered?Copy !req
1137. You're conducting
this investigation, not me.Copy !req
1138. All right, Frank. Lieutenant Smith.
Let's get back to him.Copy !req
1139. Lieutenant Smith.
Lieutenant Smith said to me...Copy !req
1140. if I didn't want the money,
that he would stash it in his attic.Copy !req
1141. - I'll have him transferred.
- Fuck him. How about transferring me?Copy !req
1142. Serpico.Copy !req
1143. I hear you've been
vouchering pad money...Copy !req
1144. over to a confidential
investigation squad.Copy !req
1145. Oh, yeah?Copy !req
1146. How can I voucher money
when I don't take any?Copy !req
1147. You won't find anything on Serpico.Copy !req
1148. He's clean.Copy !req
1149. Right?Copy !req
1150. - Hmm?
- You practicing your frisk?Copy !req
1151. No.Copy !req
1152. I'm looking to buy
a used tape recorder.Copy !req
1153. Wear a wire?
They're feeling me up every day.Copy !req
1154. - How am I gonna wear a wire?
- Come on, Frank.Copy !req
1155. Look, wearing a wire means testifying
to corroborate the tape, right? Right.Copy !req
1156. I'm not testifying.Copy !req
1157. I gotta put a dime
in the parking meter.Copy !req
1158. Franklin, put a dime in the
parking meter for Serpico.Copy !req
1159. Hey, Frank.Copy !req
1160. Frank, uh, you know Herman Tauber,
district attorney?Copy !req
1161. Yeah, I watch television.Copy !req
1162. Frank, I wanna compliment you
for coming forward like this.Copy !req
1163. It's— It's unique.
It's uniquely unique.Copy !req
1164. You should be proud of yourself.Copy !req
1165. There's gonna be a grand jury
on these shit heels...Copy !req
1166. with Frank Serpico
as my star witness.Copy !req
1167. Mr. Tauber, you and everybody
in this room can go to hell...Copy !req
1168. - ... because I'm not testifying.
- Wait. Listen.Copy !req
1169. Wait, wait, wait. Just a second,
Frank, you have nothing to fear.Copy !req
1170. - You're not gonna be singled out.
- I'm not afraid.Copy !req
1171. I don't give a fuck who knows...Copy !req
1172. if it meant something, but this
investigation is bullshit. It's bullshit.Copy !req
1173. You're not after corruption in the
department, the division, the Bronx.Copy !req
1174. A few flunky cops thrown to the wolves
to protect Delaney and those guys...Copy !req
1175. who known about this shit and won't
do a thing. That's why I won't testify.Copy !req
1176. Hey, what's this?Copy !req
1177. Exactly what it says.Copy !req
1178. - I'm splitting.
- I never read anything so stupid.Copy !req
1179. "I'm leaving. If you wanna
discuss it, I'll be at Felix's."Copy !req
1180. I didn't feel like another
blood-and-guts scene.Copy !req
1181. I figured you wouldn't
be able to shout.Copy !req
1182. I can shout anywhere.Copy !req
1183. I won't shout.Copy !req
1184. Sit down, sit down.Copy !req
1185. It's just gonna go on and on, Paco.
It isn't gonna get any better.Copy !req
1186. And if you quit,
somehow I'll be blamed.Copy !req
1187. How could you leave
the man you love?Copy !req
1188. The future father of your kids?Copy !req
1189. You never said anything like that
to me before.Copy !req
1190. And if I come back...Copy !req
1191. you won't say it again.Copy !req
1192. You wanna be free and unattached...Copy !req
1193. to go on fighting for your cause
and keep torturing yourself.Copy !req
1194. My "cause"...Copy !req
1195. Oh, Paco.Copy !req
1196. I felt so safe with you...Copy !req
1197. so loving.Copy !req
1198. Stay with me, Laurie.Copy !req
1199. - Come on, stay with me.
- Oh, no.Copy !req
1200. What am I doing?Copy !req
1201. I owe you for that, huh? Here.Copy !req
1202. Here's $2.Copy !req
1203. Laurie.Copy !req
1204. What are you doing?Copy !req
1205. Do you wanna walk away,
or should I?Copy !req
1206. I'm not gonna walk away.Copy !req
1207. It's finished.Copy !req
1208. Who do you think you are, pulling
that "no testifying" bullshit on me?Copy !req
1209. Chief Green, I know your reputation.Copy !req
1210. Look, maybe if you were borough
commander when this thing started...Copy !req
1211. run this investigation yourself,
I'd feel different about testifying.Copy !req
1212. The truth is,
you're coming in after the fact.Copy !req
1213. Cut the crap.
You're like a quiff who says...Copy !req
1214. she won't, she will,
then she won't.Copy !req
1215. Yeah, I'm like a quiff who's been
fucked over for a year and a half...Copy !req
1216. by guys like Kellogg,
McClain, Delaney.Copy !req
1217. - I'm not Kellogg, McClain or Delaney.
- Frank, it won't be just flunky cops.Copy !req
1218. This is only the beginning.Copy !req
1219. This could be the biggest thing
since the Harry Gross case.Copy !req
1220. And meanwhile where am I?
I'm out there alone.Copy !req
1221. Who gives a fuck about that?
I'm totally isolated in the department.Copy !req
1222. - I don't have a friend.
- Don't give me that.Copy !req
1223. I've been putting cops away
for 30 years.Copy !req
1224. My name's an obscenity on
every shit-house wall in every precinct.Copy !req
1225. I've observed that, sir.Copy !req
1226. "Friends." I fought my way up as a Jew
in the days you're supposed to have...Copy !req
1227. an uncircumcised shamrock
between your legs.Copy !req
1228. I have this nightmare: I'm on Fifth Ave.,
watching St. Patrick's Day parade.Copy !req
1229. I have a coronary, and 9000 cops
march happily over my body. Friends.Copy !req
1230. I haven't got a friend in the force.Copy !req
1231. I'll be your friend, chief.
- I'm not looking for any.Copy !req
1232. - I'll make an exception in your case.
You're a good cop.Copy !req
1233. Stop being a prima donna,
just cut out the shticklech.Copy !req
1234. I don't understand, you know.
How am I being a prima donna?Copy !req
1235. - I wanna protect myself.
- Frank...Copy !req
1236. we're gonna get the indictments.
You're gonna have to testify.Copy !req
1237. Ready on the right.
Ready on the left.Copy !req
1238. Ready on the firing line.Copy !req
1239. What are you gonna tell
the grand jury, Frankie?Copy !req
1240. Depends on what they ask me.Copy !req
1241. Suppose they ask you
who's taking money.Copy !req
1242. What I don't know, I don't know.Copy !req
1243. But you do know, Frank.Copy !req
1244. Look, Frankie, I like you. I don't
wanna see anything happen to you.Copy !req
1245. But you gotta understand,
a lot of people could get hurt here.Copy !req
1246. Look, I'm not saying it's gonna happen.
I'm saying it could happen.Copy !req
1247. There's lots of ways.
Nobody has to take a shot at you.Copy !req
1248. They can just not be there
when you need them.Copy !req
1249. Somebody come at you with a gun,
they look the other way.Copy !req
1250. Or they can send you in first
enough times until one day...Copy !req
1251. you're gonna walk
in the wrong door.Copy !req
1252. - Thanks for the information.
- Fuck you, Frank.Copy !req
1253. I have nothing more. Does anyone
have any further questions?Copy !req
1254. Uh, yes.
- Yes, Mrs. Crist?Copy !req
1255. If I may, Mr. Knowles. Thank you.Copy !req
1256. Officer Serpico came
to the 7th Division...Copy !req
1257. more than a year and a half ago.Copy !req
1258. All during that time, the things
he's told us were taking place. Now...Copy !req
1259. why didn't Officer Serpico report
these criminal activities long before...Copy !req
1260. - ... when he first encountered them?
- I'd like to answer.Copy !req
1261. Mr. Chairman, uh,
Mrs. Crist's question...Copy !req
1262. I don't believe is, uh, material
or relevant to the present inquiry.Copy !req
1263. I'd like to answer that question, sir.Copy !req
1264. Officer Serpico cannot be considered
derelict of his duty in any way...Copy !req
1265. or guilty of any infraction
of the law. Quite the contrary.Copy !req
1266. The district attorney is not prepared
to say any more at this time.Copy !req
1267. Very well, Mr. Tauber. Officer Serpico,
thank you for your testimony.Copy !req
1268. This hearing is adjourned
until 10:00 tomorrow morning.Copy !req
1269. Why didn't you tell them
about Delaney, Kellogg?Copy !req
1270. Frank, this was a grand jury about
police officers engaged in corruption.Copy !req
1271. You don't implicate people
without sufficient evidence.Copy !req
1272. Now, that's crap, and you know it.Copy !req
1273. Even a dumb cop like me knows
a prosecutor can take a grand jury...Copy !req
1274. anywhere it wants to take it.Copy !req
1275. You never led me
anywhere near the real problems.Copy !req
1276. Nothing about the bosses,
the brass.Copy !req
1277. How corruption could exist
without anybody knowing.Copy !req
1278. Now a few flunky cops in the Bronx,
that's it. None of this shit in Queens?Copy !req
1279. - Brooklyn? Manhattan?
- Why don't you mention Kansas City?Copy !req
1280. "The biggest thing since Harry Gross."
That's what you said.Copy !req
1281. All right. Look, Frank.Copy !req
1282. You've got guts, integrity.Copy !req
1283. There's gonna be a detective's
gold shield in this for you.Copy !req
1284. Now, that's terrific. That's good.Copy !req
1285. Maybe this is what it's about. I should
take my gold shield and forget it.Copy !req
1286. I know you've been through
an ordeal, Frank.Copy !req
1287. I'm a marked man
in this department for what?Copy !req
1288. I've already arranged
a transfer for you.Copy !req
1289. To where? China?Copy !req
1290. That takes a 14-shot clip.Copy !req
1291. You expecting an army?Copy !req
1292. No, just a division.Copy !req
1293. Tauber, did you know I've had reports
about Serpico being a fag?Copy !req
1294. He used to hang out
in the B.C.I. washroom.Copy !req
1295. That's stupid, commissioner,
and you know it.Copy !req
1296. You know, Mr. Commissioner,
a gold shield for Serpico at this time...Copy !req
1297. - ... would convince a lot of people.
- Not while I'm commissioner.Copy !req
1298. Commander's office?Copy !req
1299. It's down that corridor.Copy !req
1300. Hey, Serpico. Do you know what
they're saying in the Bronx?Copy !req
1301. That you spilled
your guts to the grand jury.Copy !req
1302. Say it isn't so, Serpico.Copy !req
1303. It isn't so.Copy !req
1304. We know how to handle
guys like you.Copy !req
1305. I ought to cut your tongue out.Copy !req
1306. Jesus, Serpico.
What the hell are you—?Copy !req
1307. Don't move.Copy !req
1308. Officer Serpico
reporting for duty, sir.Copy !req
1309. I'm Inspector Lombardo.
I wanna shake your hand, Frank.Copy !req
1310. It's gonna be nice to have
a guy here I can trust.Copy !req
1311. Anybody in this command
you wanna work with?Copy !req
1312. Well, it's not who I wanna work with.
It's who wants to work with me.Copy !req
1313. All right. You can't find anybody
you wanna work with, Frank...Copy !req
1314. I'll work with you.Copy !req
1315. That all right?Copy !req
1316. How do we get past the lookouts?Copy !req
1317. How many you got? One.Copy !req
1318. There's two.Copy !req
1319. - There's the third one.
- There's three of them.Copy !req
1320. It's four buildings down. We can try
and get down the fire escape.Copy !req
1321. Get in from behind.
What'd you think?Copy !req
1322. - Good to you?
- Yeah, let's go.Copy !req
1323. - What do you think?
- Wanna try it?Copy !req
1324. You all right?Copy !req
1325. Yeah. I feel just like
a cop again. Thank you.Copy !req
1326. Close up.Copy !req
1327. Frank, come on. Come on.Copy !req
1328. Cut it out.
I ain't got none. I ain't—Copy !req
1329. Get in the other room.
Out of here. Get up against the wall.Copy !req
1330. What the hell's going on here?
Who the hell are you?Copy !req
1331. - Who are you?
- Police. Who do you think?Copy !req
1332. Fuck against the wall.
Up. Up. Up.Copy !req
1333. Let's see your shield.Copy !req
1334. Wanna see a shield?
All right, there's my shield.Copy !req
1335. - Where you from?
- Borough, Manhattan, 8.Copy !req
1336. No, goddamn it.
You're not from the borough.Copy !req
1337. I paid the borough this morning.Copy !req
1338. Hey, Frank.Copy !req
1339. The hell kind of shakedown is this?Copy !req
1340. Who'd you pay in the borough?Copy !req
1341. Nobody.Copy !req
1342. - I didn't pay nobody.
- Who'd you pay in the borough?Copy !req
1343. I didn't pay nobody.
Now let go of me.Copy !req
1344. We followed up...Copy !req
1345. and, uh, there's no doubt about it.Copy !req
1346. The pad
here in Manhattan is bigger...Copy !req
1347. and it's more sophisticated
than the one in the Bronx.Copy !req
1348. The pickups here are made—Copy !req
1349. You wanna get this,
the pickups are made by...Copy !req
1350. retired policemen.Copy !req
1351. That way, no, uh, plainclothes men
are directly involved.Copy !req
1352. Now, we need investigative help
on this one, chief.Copy !req
1353. Well, inspector,
if you need investigative help...Copy !req
1354. and you don't trust
your own men...Copy !req
1355. why don't you requisition some
recruits from the police academy?Copy !req
1356. With all due respect, sir.Copy !req
1357. Backing us up is the only hope
that the police department has got.Copy !req
1358. There are good cops
who'd come forward...Copy !req
1359. if there was any encouragement
to do so...Copy !req
1360. and if they thought it would do
any good. If not, they won't do it.Copy !req
1361. I've done a whole lot more than
most people to defend and preserve...Copy !req
1362. the image of this department
and protect Commissioner Delaney...Copy !req
1363. against reckless and irresponsible
assaults from outside agencies.Copy !req
1364. That's it, huh?Copy !req
1365. I mean,
that's what's really important, isn't it?Copy !req
1366. That's what you wanna know.Copy !req
1367. What outside agencies
I've been to, right?Copy !req
1368. Hello.
- Hello, prick.Copy !req
1369. - Who is this?
- Frank.Copy !req
1370. Frank, how are you? Where are you?Copy !req
1371. I'm ready to go to the Times.Copy !req
1372. It's a goddamn serious step, Frank.Copy !req
1373. I don't know if the timing is right.Copy !req
1374. Look, I want it to get
on the record, that's all.Copy !req
1375. In case something
should happen to me.Copy !req
1376. I want it on the record.Copy !req
1377. I don't know
if we carry enough weight.Copy !req
1378. I don't know if the Times
will go out on a limb...Copy !req
1379. on the say-so of two flunky cops.Copy !req
1380. Suppose an inspector
were to come with us.Copy !req
1381. You know,
I got 20 years on the force.Copy !req
1382. Just bought this place.
I signed a 500-year mortgage on it.Copy !req
1383. Will you turn that thing off
out there.Copy !req
1384. Okay, come on, everybody to bed.
Come on. Turn that damn thing down.Copy !req
1385. Yeah, come on, now.
Come on. Go on upstairs.Copy !req
1386. This is against department regulations.
You both know that.Copy !req
1387. If they wanna throw
the book at me, they can do it.Copy !req
1388. If I left the force...Copy !req
1389. I don't know what I could do.Copy !req
1390. Okay, I made my little speech.
I'll back you up 100 percent.Copy !req
1391. Times and the News.
I got the money, fellas.Copy !req
1392. There you go, there you go,
there you go.Copy !req
1393. Newsweek, please.Copy !req
1394. Holy sh...Copy !req
1395. Oh, Christ.Copy !req
1396. You can almost predict
the numbers they're gonna do.Copy !req
1397. Delaney's gonna issue
some phony denial.Copy !req
1398. Somebody from the mayor's office
will say something noble.Copy !req
1399. Delaney will change his tune.
Finally the mayor will appoint a commission.Copy !req
1400. "Thursday, Mayor Lindsay announced
the formation of a special committee...Copy !req
1401. to review procedures
for investigating police corruption."Copy !req
1402. How come I'm not
in the first paragraph?Copy !req
1403. Unbelievable.Copy !req
1404. The Times' report smells of the
familiar smear tactics of McCarthyism.Copy !req
1405. This government must
and will root out corruption...Copy !req
1406. with every means at our command.Copy !req
1407. The mayor has this day appointed
a special investigation commission...Copy !req
1408. to be headed by Whitman Knapp.Copy !req
1409. Yeah, come.Copy !req
1410. Here's your reward, Frank.Copy !req
1411. It's a transfer to Narcotics,
Brooklyn South.Copy !req
1412. Still in Clothes. You get a tin shield,
you don't get a gold one.Copy !req
1413. I miss you already, Frank.Copy !req
1414. Look—Copy !req
1415. Frank.Copy !req
1416. It's Narcotics.Copy !req
1417. You be careful.Copy !req
1418. It's very easy to, uh, get hurt.Copy !req
1419. And to, uh...Copy !req
1420. To be set up.Copy !req
1421. Serpico.Copy !req
1422. Get in.Copy !req
1423. You're not wired, are you?Copy !req
1424. Okay, you cocksucker.Copy !req
1425. You might get by in the Bronx
with that kind of shit...Copy !req
1426. but down here,
800 a month is chicken feed.Copy !req
1427. Last week, one dope dealer sent out
these guys making pickups.Copy !req
1428. Forty thousand each.Copy !req
1429. We let them collect it all
and then hit them.Copy !req
1430. A hundred and twenty thousand
split four ways.Copy !req
1431. That's serious money.Copy !req
1432. And with that,
you don't fuck around.Copy !req
1433. I got the message.Copy !req
1434. Good. Now get the fuck out.Copy !req
1435. The guy's name is Limbo.
He just uses this place...Copy !req
1436. his girlfriend's brother's place.
He's a pusher. Heroin.Copy !req
1437. We're gonna drive to the corner.Copy !req
1438. - Right.
- And you keep in sight out front.Copy !req
1439. When you spot somebody who's dirty,
take off your glasses and wipe them.Copy !req
1440. Right. Okay.Copy !req
1441. If we stay here very long...Copy !req
1442. - ... we're gonna get spotted.
Well, Frank...Copy !req
1443. Why don't you go up there
and check it out?Copy !req
1444. - Well, why don't you?
- I got the wrong clothes.Copy !req
1445. - I'll take you shopping.
- Uh-huh.Copy !req
1446. Limbo.Copy !req
1447. Gerardo.Copy !req
1448. Police. Freeze.Copy !req
1449. - Police officer.
All right.Copy !req
1450. - To the wall.
Against the wall.Copy !req
1451. Goddamn it, get up.Copy !req
1452. All right. Palms up on the wall
and spread them.Copy !req
1453. - Get them up. Spread them.
Hands up. Come on.Copy !req
1454. - Spread them.
Feet apart.Copy !req
1455. - I saw the buy.
Let's get Limbo.Copy !req
1456. Julio, you all right?Copy !req
1457. Yeah, yeah. I got them.Copy !req
1458. Police officer.Copy !req
1459. What the fuck are you waiting for?Copy !req
1460. Police. Throw out your guns
and come out with your hands up.Copy !req
1461. What do you got here?
- It's Mr. and Mrs. Serpico, sir.Copy !req
1462. Okay.Copy !req
1463. Yes?Copy !req
1464. - Where's our son?
- They're bringing him down from X-ray.Copy !req
1465. - We want to see him.
- Just a few minutes.Copy !req
1466. Mr. and Mrs. Serpico.
The news is better than we expected.Copy !req
1467. Thank God,
the bullet was a small caliber.Copy !req
1468. It didn't enter the brain...Copy !req
1469. or strike the spinal cord.Copy !req
1470. He's on the critical list...Copy !req
1471. but his condition
seems to be stable.Copy !req
1472. Thank you, doctor. Thank you.Copy !req
1473. Stay out of there.
Didn't they tell you?Copy !req
1474. What?Copy !req
1475. The word is, don't talk to him.
He's no fucking good.Copy !req
1476. - How you doing, kid?
Hello, Sid.Copy !req
1477. How are you?Copy !req
1478. Wanna read my fan mail?Copy !req
1479. Sure.Copy !req
1480. You're a big shot now, huh?Copy !req
1481. Sid.Copy !req
1482. I want you to get those fucking cops
away from my door.Copy !req
1483. The Knapp Commission likes you.
They want you to appear.Copy !req
1484. Well, naturally.Copy !req
1485. Frank,
Heinemann and Julio are cleared.Copy !req
1486. The three of you are up
for exceptional merit awards.Copy !req
1487. That's very funny.Copy !req
1488. It's very funny.Copy !req
1489. Francesco, you love me?Copy !req
1490. I always had a thing for you, Sid.
You know that.Copy !req
1491. Your gold shield's come through.Copy !req
1492. What's this for?Copy !req
1493. For being an honest cop? Hmm?Copy !req
1494. Or for being stupid enough
to get shot in the face?Copy !req
1495. You tell them they can shove it.Copy !req
1496. I don't want it.Copy !req
1497. Oh, well.Copy !req
1498. Well, Frank, the facts are these:Copy !req
1499. You'll have to stay on leave of absence
for a few months.Copy !req
1500. In all probability, the hearing
in your left ear won't come back.Copy !req
1501. Two bullet fragments
are still lodged in the bony portion.Copy !req
1502. One is very close
to the carotid artery...Copy !req
1503. and you'll have to be checked
from time to time.Copy !req
1504. Your left side
will feel stiff occasionally.Copy !req
1505. Once in a great while
you may experience some dizziness.Copy !req
1506. But in general you'll be okay.Copy !req
1507. Through my appearance
here today...Copy !req
1508. I hope that police officers
in the future...Copy !req
1509. will not experience
the same frustration and anxiety...Copy !req
1510. that I was subjected to
for the past five years...Copy !req
1511. at the hands of my superiors...Copy !req
1512. because of my attempt
to report corruption.Copy !req
1513. I was made to feel
that I had burdened them...Copy !req
1514. with an unwanted task.Copy !req
1515. The problem is that the atmosphere
does not yet exist...Copy !req
1516. in which an honest police officer...Copy !req
1517. can act without fear of ridicule
or reprisal from fellow officers.Copy !req
1518. Police corruption cannot exist...Copy !req
1519. unless it is at least tolerated
at higher levels in the department.Copy !req
1520. Therefore, the most important result
that can come from these hearings...Copy !req
1521. is a conviction by police officers
that the department will change.Copy !req
1522. In order to ensure this...Copy !req
1523. an independent, permanent
investigative body...Copy !req
1524. dealing with police corruption,
like this commission, is essential.Copy !req
