Ooh, yeah.
Oh, for chrissakes.
Charlie, wake up.
You passed out in your beer again.
What?! What are you talking about?
I was just resting my eyes.
I'm calling you a cab.
What kind of joint is this, huh?
A round for the house, bartender
On me!
You asked for it.
Poor bastard.
His liver's probably mush by now.
Some people just don't know
when to quit.
That's what happened to Margo.
Let's do it, boys.
You're here, baby?
Hey, blue eyes, you're late.
Yeah. But I knew you'd wait.
You like that, don't you?
Yeah, I like it.
I thought you'd have more.
We've been over this before.
Times are tough.
You take what you can get nowadays.
It's top quality stuff, check it out.
This stuff looks old.
You're slipping, honey.
If you weren't such a good kisser
I'd use other sources.
I've always had what you need.
If you don't want it
then get the fuck out of here!
Plenty of other buyers in town.
Don't get bitchy.
C'mere!
Everybody go!
Freeze! Get your hands up!
What is this shit?
Margo
Thanks, sweetie.
How could you set me up, you bitch?
You said you loved me, we were partners.
Let me go, you fuckers!
Let go!
I'll get you!
I'll get you, you whore.
I swear it, I'll turn over on you!
You're dead!
How can you live with yourself?
You make me sick to my stomach.
C'mon, flatfoot, drive me home.
Then when I go check
the stash money in lock-up,
most of it's missing.
Captain, she's a total wild card.
What do you want me to tell you?
I hate her as much as you do.
-But the chief thinks she's a good cop.
-I doubt that.
She probably has something on him.
She's dirty, Vic.
She's dealing with the perps,
and skimming shit off the top!
I'm warning you,
as your boss and a friend,
Don't mess with that bitch,
she's connected all the way to the top.
I don't give a shit
if she's plugged into God himself.
I'm taking her down.
Jesus, Ernie, are you out of your head?
You got a beautiful wife
and two months to full pension.
Just sit tight.
I can't do that, Captain.
Fuck!
All rise for the honorable
judge Farfelson.
Larceny, possession
of illegal contraband,
Trafficking in body parts,
and other counts
too numerous to mention.
I sentence you to life
at the prison colony.
Please, your honor,
you've got to understand
I've been set up by some
crooked cops to take the fall.
Margo had me under her thumb. Please!
Next case.
No, no!
I'll get you, Margo!
I swear I'll get you!
You set me up!
You bitch!
Attention all guards
Please prepare prisoners
for shuttle departure.
Colony prison shuttle
will depart in 30 seconds.
Only prisoners and guards
allowed in docking zone.
Why Margo? I thought we were a team.
I've been with you
since you were walking the beat.
I thought we loved each other!
For chrissakes, how could you?!
I had no choice. I had to deliver.
I love you.
Margo, honey, that's your problem.
You're a liar and you've never loved
anybody but yourself.
That's okay. I'll have you again
on the inside.
I'll be waiting.
Launching in 30 seconds.
Please prepare to launch.
Standby, ready to depart in three,
two, one
Approaching the colony.
Docking bay ready for arrival.
Docking secure.
Honey You home?
Do you have any idea how many people
would thank me?
You're a regular boy scout, Ernie.
Go ahead, pull the trigger,
if you got the guts.
Uh-uh, not the face.
Here, in the heart.
Go on, little man, do it. Shoot me.
You don't deserve to go that easy.
You had your chance, partner.
Now let's get moving.
Organ-jackings are usually
out by the waterfront.
What are you up to?
Shut up, I'm in charge
of this operation.
Just a routine stakeout.
You remember judge Farfelson.
You got a warrant for this?
I don't need one.
I have personal knowledge
of an impending crime.
I can't be a part of this bullshit!
This time you've gone too far!
Asshole.
Sorry, Farfelson.
I've decided to trade you in
and get some new blood on the bench.
Keep the shot tight,
The judge likes his sex whipped,
just like his justice.
Live by the dick,
die by the dick.
Just what are you gonna do with that?
What's it to you, little man?
You'll be lucky if I don't report you
for ditching me on a stakeout.
Are you gonna let me go
or do you wanna get rough?
Hey!
Fuck-head!
I'll get you, Skankmeyer,
you limp-dick bastard!
No one fucks with Margo
and gets away with it.
Oh, baby, I got Margo this time.
She's mine. She can't wiggle
her way out of this one.
Jesus. This surveillance
wasn't authorized by the chief.
If he finds out Margo will skate
and you'll be strung up.
But it's Farfelson.
She's trying to take him down!
Get rid of it!
You'll never be able to use it in court.
And if anyone finds out,
we'd all be doing time.
You're on your own with this one, Ernie.
I don't want to get involved.
"Get involved"?
You're a police officer, for chrissake!
I trusted you, Vic.
But she got to you too, didn't she?
Captain.
Ernie, are you okay, honey?
Everything's fine, sweetheart.
I'm just thinking about some things
from work, nothing important.
Come to bed, honey.
I can't.
Margo reported me for
walking out on the stakeout.
Chief Ganson wants
to see me immediately.
Can't it wait?
Why rush to the station for a lecture
when you could be in bed with me?
Two months 'till full pension.
I gotta think about our future,
sweetheart.
I'll be back as soon as I can.
You're finally gonna tell the Chief
what a lowlife your partner is?
You've always done the right thing
and working with Margo
is eating you up inside.
I don't care about your pension, honey.
I just wanna see you smile again.
Go on to bed. I'll be home shortly.
I love ya.
I love you, too.
I'm serious.
Tell me or die, bitch.
What the hell are you gonna do?
I don't know what the hell
you're talking about!
Your little wimp of a husband
is hiding something of mine
in this rat hole and I want it. Now!
Oh, my god.
You're never gonna get away with this.
You're a cop!
And Ernie's probably on his way home.
When he finally pulls the knives out
of his back
I'll be long gone and you'll be dead.
Now where the fuck is that disk?!
You're just like your husband,
spineless and weak.
Goddamnit!
You haven't got the guts, boy scout.
Try me.
Ernie!
Die!
Trust me, Margo,
we're pleading this one out.
Listen, dumb-shit, I didn't do it.
Skankmeyer pulled the trigger,
he's lying.
He's got a lot on you.
Blackmail, bribery, organ-jacking.
That's beside the goddamn point.
Right now I'm being framed
for murder I didn't commit!
Don't you get it?
When Det. Skankmeyer testifies
how you broke into his house,
evidence he has on a surveillance tape,
then tied up his wife and
shot her with your own gun,
who's the judge gonna believe?
I still got a lot of friends
in this town.
Call the Chief or the Mayor.
There's gotta be somebody.
You've become a public liability.
No one can afford to be
associated with you.
I'm not serving any time, Sid.
Do what you have to do.
But if I serve one day in a jail
I'll get your ass
and you'll be fuckin' sorry.
Look, Margo,
I'm your attorney, take my advice.
Throw yourself on the mercy of the court
and pray for a light sentence.
It's the best you can do.
Wait. Who's the judge?
Farfelson.
Why rush to the station for a lecture
when you can be in bed with me?
Ernie I love you.
Ernie!
I think this is yours, judge.
Now where are my glasses?
Your honor, we both know
this has been a huge waste
of taxpayer time and money.
Please tell these morons I'm free to go
and forgive them.
They don't know
what the hell they're doing.
Sorry, Margo, you lose this time.
Death by dissection.
What?! No!
Guards, please expedite this sentence.
You owe me, Farfelson, you bastard!
When the governor pardons me,
you're going down,
you blind son-of-a-bitch!
Attention all guards,
please prepare
for shuttle departure to Sentari.
Welcome to Sentari.
On behalf of the crew
and Captain of the shuttle
we'd like to welcome you to the colony.
Enjoy your stay.
Well, well.
Karma's a bitch, ain't it?
Don't worry, blue eyes,
I won't damage the merchandise
too badly.
I'll get them all,
each and every one of them.
Sit still, girlfriend. I might cut you.
It's time, Margo.
I'm telling you, Warden, I didn't do it!
You bastards set me up!
Her husband pulled
the goddamn trigger!
Get off me! I didn't kill her!
I'm sorry.
Has the governor called
with my pardon?
Please, you can't let them
do this to me.
I haven't done anything to deserve this!
Please listen to me!
This is bullshit!
I haven't done anything wrong!
Sorry, Margo.
Justice always serves the system.
Just take a deep breath.
This won't hurt a bit.
Ernie!
In the end I suppose you could say
Margo got what she deserved.
Once Margo had a piece of everybody
Now everybody's got a piece of Margo.
Good morning, judge!
My, what beautiful new baby blues!
Thank you, Thelma.
Call the first case.
As it turns out,
Margo was worth more dead than alive.
She should have seen it coming.
Well, now those baby blues see the world
from a very different perspective.
