21 Jump Street s01e08 Episode Script

1 Any last words, kid? Where's dessert? Diane got smart and put a padlock on the door, huh? There she goes again, only thinking of herself.
She's nice, huh? Nice? Jordee, my sister is nice.
This is the kind of girl we want to meet! You want to trash the pinball machines for quarters or what? Dylan, Artie will know you ripped him off.
Want to get fired? Hey! Rule number one: Sometimes you just got to go for it.
Jordee: Who the heck is that? Man: all I want is a little tenderness Woman: so pull your body close to mine Time is money, baby Whoo-hoo You know that everybody's got a price You know the rich get richer Give me that bar! Money talks, money talks Ooh Just follow the money, baby We should call the police or something.
I got a better idea.
Come on! Let's pack it in! Whoo-hoo-hoo Come on! I'm going to die! Are you nuts?! This is not acceptable.
We got to get out of here! Geez.
You know, the rich get richer While the poor folks stand in line Huh? Life ain't easy, but you got to keep tryin' There's a love for money that means so much When you can buy into the dream Money talks Hold it.
Those guys aren't cops.
Fuller: Take a good look at these two.
Penhall: Jordan Simms and Dylan Taylor What about them? They've disappeared.
Metro asked us to pitch in.
Says they were last seen at the village square 36 hours ago.
Around the time that bank machine got ripped off.
Precisely at that time.
Witnesses spotted them on the run.
If these kids were witnesses, they could be homicide victims.
Yeah.
Well, that's the concern.
Or they could just be scared and gone underground.
But why be optimistic? Penhall, you and hanson touch base with their folks.
If they did go underground maybe somebody's heard from them.
Okay, boss.
Another house in the belmont district was cleaned out last night.
Somebody's got it in for that neighborhood.
That somebody's moving that merchandise somewhere, so everybody keep your eyes open.
This next one's a little on the dicey side, folks.
It seems a gym teacher over at Lincoln overheard his boys discussing a hooker who's working the school.
Pros in the classroom? An idea whose time has come.
Sounds like something penhall would make up.
Ioki, this one's yours.
Find out who this alleged hooker is and get yourself a date with her.
If she's a pro, bust her.
Hoffs, back him up.
Work it from the girl's side.
Folks, that's it.
I'll call the missing kids' parents and let them know we're coming by.
Be careful what you say.
Don't get their hopes up.
I'll be as pessimistic as possible.
What the heck's the matter with you? My son's out there somewhere God knows if he's even alive And they send me kids to find him?! We're full-fledged police officers, Mr.
Taylor.
We've been through this with the cops.
We're investigating from a different angle.
It's possible Dylan and Jordan might have contacted friends.
Before they'd call their parents? Maybe that's how you were raised.
But not our boy.
We're just checking out every possibility, sir.
So if you could just give us a list of your son's friends, where they like to hang out, what they like to do Stuff like that.
Well, they, uh, like to play ball down at the y.
That was a couple of years ago, Greg.
You people have no idea what your kids are up to, do you? It's just that we all work full time.
It's hard enough to keep a roof over their heads.
It's just, we Don't know where they are all the time.
Well, uh, maybe their school can help us.
I'm sure you're doing your best, Mr.
Taylor.
We'll, uh, we'll call as soon as there's word.
Those poor babies.
I can't bear to think of what's happened to them.
Dylan: Yes, we'll have two vodka Martinis Oh, and shaken, not stirred, please.
I'll need to see some I.
D.
, gentlemen.
Oh, really? I'll take that as a compliment.
Let's see here.
Listen, I may not be 21, but, uh, Mr.
Franklin here is.
I'll see what I can do.
What did I tell you, jordee? Everybody's got a price.
Fortunately, we can afford it.
Not for long.
We spent a bundle so far New clothes, pinkie rings Hey, don't forget that pocket TV we can take to the games.
And tipping that waitress 50 bucks for a bag of potato chips.
Have a heart She's on her feet all day.
Maybe we should just go home, you know? We're lucky to even be alive.
And what if those guys find us? All the more reason to live it up! Come on, jordee quit worrying.
Have a good time.
I want to at least call my folks, okay? This saddens me, jordee.
I mean it! I mean, sometimes I think that everything I've taught you has just gone in one ear and out the other.
Let me know if you need anything else Mr.
Franklin.
Thank you.
This is nuts! But is it acceptable? Just barely.
Woof.
One, two, three, shoot.
Petey.
Jason.
Larry.
Patrick.
Uh, Billy.
Frank, I guess.
Okay.
Come on, Randy.
Tom.
Okay.
Burt.
Steven, I guess.
You can have him.
What a guy.
All right.
You guys are skins.
Come on, guys.
I heard a lot of the guys talking about it but I don't know It seems hard to believe.
Burt, get in there.
Don't goof up.
Robbie, we were talking about that girl that does it for money.
Think she's for real? Why? You looking to get lucky? Not that it isn't long overdue.
Come on, man.
I've done it before.
Yeah and then you woke up, right? Not only is she for real, but I got a date with her tonight.
You? It's worth a few bucks to take a shortcut once in a while.
So, um what's this girl's name? Lauren Carson.
The girl's probably got no idea what these guys are saying about her.
I can see spreading rumors that she's easy but why lie about having to pay for it? Who knows? Maybe it turns them on, makes a better story.
Isn't that what gym class is all about? No.
It's about humiliation.
Hey, you mind if I sit here? No.
Go ahead.
This is a great library.
The one over at Jefferson's only half this size.
Are you a transfer? Yeah.
It's my first day.
I'm Judy Morris.
Lauren Carson.
I transferred in last semester.
It's pretty cool here.
Real estate? You thinking about buying? Not on my allowance.
My dad just got a promotion to his company's home office in Connecticut.
I'm just checking out the housing situation.
Connecticut? Man, you must be pretty bummed.
My mom's the one who's bummed.
She's got to leave the country club and all that.
I'm looking forward to it New house, new friends.
Plus, my dad said he'd buy me a horse.
Hey, Lauren Interviewing a new candidate for the massage parlor? What was that all about? Nothing.
Let me give you some advice, Judy: Be careful who you date around here.
A lot of these guys expect you to come across all the way with them.
What if you don't? Then they tell all their buddies you did anyway.
Lauren? Yeah? Hi.
I've seen you around school.
Great.
Listen, uh, you mind if I walk with you? Is there something I can do for you, um Harry.
Harry? Uh, actually, yes.
I, uh I was, uh, I was wondering if you'd like to go out with me.
You don't waste much time getting to know a person, do you? Give me a break.
I've been practicing all week.
All week, huh? I don't think so.
Okay, so it wasn't all week.
It wasn't.
But it was a good part of the morning.
Look, I really am a sweetheart once you get to know me.
Really! All right.
I suppose persistence counts for something.
How about tomorrow night? Yeah, that'd be great.
I got to go.
My English teacher pops an artery when I'm late for his class.
But I'll see you later.
Bye.
Yo, Jude! Hold up! Hi! I'll catch you later, okay? What's up? I got a date with Lauren for tomorrow night.
You still think she's a hooker? I don't know We didn't say very much.
Harry, you've dealt with working girls before.
Does she really strike you as one? I said I don't know yet.
What makes you so sure she isn't? Guys get together and make up stuff.
"She's hot.
" "She can't get enough.
" "She swings from chandeliers.
" And nobody ever stops to think how it affects the girl.
You know why? Because your brains are stuck in your zippers.
Oh, yeah? We'll know for sure tomorrow night.
Yeah? Don't hold your breath.
I'm sure this girl's just been stuck with a bad rep.
You ought to teach a course.
Darn.
What happened? I broke a nail.
It's okay.
I got nine more.
Let's go.
Okay.
You sure your parents won't be home soon? Not for hours.
You got some kind of protection? I'm always prepared.
Hey, it's okay, baby.
It's okay.
Don't be nervous.
Hey, we got plenty of time.
If you've got plenty of money.
Hanson: Didn't you think it was a little strange that two 15-year-olds asked for the presidential suite? At first, yes.
But Mr.
Steele and Mr.
bond "Mr.
Steele and Mr.
bond"? In their case, they paid cash in advance.
I just thought they were rich kids out for kicks till I saw their picture in the paper this morning.
I must say, on their behalf they made wonderful guests Very good tippers.
Even filled out an evaluation card.
Could we see the bill, please? Just a moment.
Everybody's worried these kids are dead and they're out there auditioning for lifestyles of the rich and famous.
Relax.
They're just dipping their fingers.
At least we know they're okay.
Yeah, I guess.
Here you are, gentlemen.
Thanks.
I love you.
Look at this! Room service, cable movies, valet service! 12 calls to dial-a-swet.
Dial-a-what? 555-s-w-e-t.
You pay two bucks to talk for three minutes to an extremely friendly lady.
Well, Fuller told me all about it.
Yeah.
Hi, baby.
I said keep away from my place.
You think I got nothing to do but wait around for your call? The deal was, you never come around here.
Okay, okay.
Take it easy.
All right.
Where's my money? Ooh! I never got this attitude from your mother.
Two years we were in business.
No problems.
No problems? A $400-a-day fix was no problem? A little light, don't you think? I mean, the stereo must have been worth at least a grand.
Study up on your brand names.
Korean products are not exactly in heavy demand.
How'd we do last night? I did fine.
The stereo and TV are both brand-new.
So is the cd.
And some of the artwork looks original.
Oh, so now you're an art critic.
It was a rothko, you moron.
I hope his stuff's better than the crud you've turned out.
What about the master bedroom? Up the stairs and to the end of the hallway.
Here.
Make sure you punch "command" first Then the security code.
And don't come back here with only $300 this time.
Supply and demand.
Uh, do you mind if I say hello to your mother before I go? Ooh! Who was that? Oh, just some kid selling magazines.
I said we didn't need any subscriptions because we were moving away soon.
Did you see anything you like? All these houses cost over $100,000.
Did you win the lottery? All we need's the down payment.
I've been saving everything I've been making on my night job.
This night job You made me a promise, Lauren.
A promise to get you clean, off the streets and away from scum like Eddie Malone.
And I'm going to do it.
That's not the promise I'm talking about.
Come on, mom Who'd pay for this? Huh? Don't worry.
We'll be in Connecticut before you know it.
And then she kissed me.
And when I say "kissed" I mean, a couple of times I felt my tongue coming loose from my mouth.
And, naturally, the bavaro technique was turning her into a she-animal.
She gets so crazy she even breaks a nail ripping my clothes off.
And then And then we did things that even I am embarrassed to talk about.
Think he's yanking our chain? I'll let you know.
I got a date with her tonight.
Tonight? You didn't know her name yesterday.
That attitude is why you will die a virgin.
I am not a virgin.
So we're all set, right? Yeah, but you got to remember Rip up the security code after you get in the house.
Don't worry.
I'll swallow the evidence.
Just heard another locker-room update.
According to Robbie bavaro, Lauren got the meter running again last night.
Let me guess.
You bought his story word for word, right? No.
I mean, it, uh, it's possible that she didn't break a nail ripping his clothes off.
You still don't get it, do you, Harry? Get what? You think this is all just a big joke! Hey, Judy, what's the haps? I'm just taking a break before the Spanish inquisition.
Did you take that test? Yeah.
I think I did pretty good.
My dad and I stayed up conjugating verbs till midnight.
I was up pretty late last night studying, too.
You, uh cut your finger? No.
I broke a nail.
Last time I offer to load the dishwasher, right? Yeah, right.
See ya.
I'm telling you, jordee Chicks love a guy behind the wheel of a flashy car.
That's what's been missing.
When are we going home? We go home when the money's gone.
After I find you a woman.
After you become a man.
Come on, jordee.
Don't start flaking out on me now.
I'm sorry, gentlemen.
I'm afraid we can't go forward with the sale.
What? Thanks anyway for your trouble.
Wait a second! I got five grand to put down right now cold cash! I'm afraid that still leaves you with $32,000 outstanding, and, um, there seems to be some question about your credit.
What about it? You haven't got any.
Sorry, boys.
Hey.
Wait a minute.
We don't need some guy working on commission turning us down.
Beautiful.
It's been a pleasure doing business with you, sir.
You've got a fine establishment here.
Have fun.
Okay, jordee.
Bring on the chicks.
Whoa! You're clear on avoiding an entrapment, right? Make sure this bust sticks.
It's not like it's my first time.
I'll be right across the street in case she decides to make a run for it.
If you want, I can take this by myself.
It's my bust, too, Harry.
I just meant since it's a little rough on you Maybe I Okay.
Look, I'm sorry I've been acting like such a jerk.
Let's just forget everything I said before, okay? Yeah.
It's forgotten.
How come you're so sure Lauren was getting a bad deal? When I first joined the force, I did a lot of vice work.
There was this one detective who liked the way I looked dressed-up as a streetwalker, and he started hitting on me.
I told the dude to stop, and he did.
The next thing I find out, he's telling the new recruits that I was a real hooker rescued off the streets and that I'd been trained in vice work.
And, Harry, it took a long time before people stopped looking at me funny.
I'm sorry that Lauren didn't pan out.
Hey, if she's dirty She gets busted.
There we go! Wow.
You've got a beautiful house here.
Well, thanks, but it's a friend of mine's.
His parents are out for a few hours.
Doesn't leave us too much time, does it? How do you want to do this? I mean the money part.
Would you mind getting me something cold to drink? My mouth's really dry.
Sure.
I'll be right back.
Okay.
Burt's, uh, brother's room should be about Right here.
No.
16110 burnside.
And could you hurry, please? I really need the phone number right away.
Hoffs, badge 714.
It's getting kind of hot in here, huh? Why don't you get out of these clothes, huh, baby? Uh, well Don't you want to talk about the price first? I don't think I can wait that long.
I should get that.
Let it ring.
No, no, it could be Burt.
Uh, what if his parents are coming home early? Hello? Harry? Harry Harry, don't bust Lauren yet.
What? Why? I caught her punching in the security code while you were out of the room.
She may be tied in with those belmont burglaries.
Uh, Lauren I just got the worst headache.
We will find out who Lauren's partnered with.
Just let me talk to her before we arrest her.
What has she done to deserve this special handling besides lie to you from the start? Her mother's a pro, her father's nonexistent.
The girl was probably raised in the back room of a massage parlor.
She never had a chance, Fuller.
Hoffs, we are police officers, not social workers.
What makes you think she'll turn civic-minded all of a sudden? If you could have heard her going on about Connecticut, what a great dad she had This whole make-believe home life.
She wants the American dream.
Yeah her and me both.
I just want to give her a chance to come clean on her own.
I think deep down inside, she really wants to.
Look, you made a good decision by holding off on the bust last night.
I don't want to see you to blow it.
If I can't turn her, I'll bring her in.
Hey! I've been looking for you guys all morning.
We were out plastering Jordan and Dylan's faces in every hangout in town.
Why? What's up? Metro nailed the perps who opened up that bank machine.
The cops recover the money? They said they didn't spend a dime, but they were 12 grand short.
That's about six grand apiece, right? How are you two doing? I'll tell you how We're chasing two kids that we thought were dead or in trouble.
Turns out they're living in penthouse suites, riding limos, buying motorcycles.
They even tried to buy a BMW! I'm not sure, but I think that's a run-on sentence.
These guys could be anywhere.
Can we just wait till they run out of money? If they hire a good investment counselor, that could take years.
Sorry, gentlemen, but they're missing and we got to bring them back.
All I ask is that Mr.
Taylor lets me watch what he does to his son.
Bring it up when you tell him the kids are alive and out of danger.
Ah, but they're still in danger, because I'm going to break their neck! Easy, boy, easy.
Come on.
Ioki, you touch base with your friend Burt? Yeah.
They're gonna change their security code.
Good.
Did hoffs talk you into holding off the bust? Actually, I was happy to allow her to try an alternate solution.
A cop that's just great.
Look, neither of us are who we said we were.
Lauren, I know there's no house in Connecticut No horse, no father.
I know what you're doing.
Let me tell you something What I do is no different from what every other woman winds up doing.
It's a lot different.
Most women don't sell their bodies.
Like heck they don't.
They just sell it for high-priced dinners theater tickets, a mink coat, and maybe even a wedding ring.
All I'm doing is taking mine up front and in cash.
Is that what your mom taught you? You leave my mother out of this.
I have a feeling she's a big part of this, Lauren.
All I'm going is taking care of my family.
Nobody's getting hurt.
Tell that to the people whose houses are getting cleaned out.
Is this how you're financing your place in Connecticut selling security code numbers? Prove it.
Who you working with, Lauren? Don't you see I'm trying to give you a break here? If you could bust me, you'd bust me.
Dylan, I hate this! Yo, Dylan, you see those girls? They're jail bait, man.
So are we! Jordee, we want real women Women who hang out in bars like this.
Trust me, I have your best interest at heart.
I'm going to the arcade.
Are you coming? There are full-figured women inside of these doors waiting to cater to our every need.
Okay.
Attaboy! Yeah, she got all day Hey, jordee, what are you doing? She's got all day She got all day She got all day Yeah, yeah, yeah Crazy, crazy little thing called women Make your body hot and leave your head spinnin' Hi.
Hi.
Hi.
Hi.
Pretty hot bike you got.
Oh, yeah it gets us where we want to go.
And, uh, we got the beamer if it rains.
Were you leaving? We ran out of quarters.
You can only check change-return slots for so long.
I've got some money.
Want to play pin-bot? Sure! You sure you don't mind? I can pay you back if you want.
No, that's okay.
I got lots of money.
Quarters, please.
Yeah, well, I like to stop by champagne Charlie's You know, schmooze with the ladies.
But jordee had this sudden urge to play pinball.
Hooray for jordee.
Yeah.
Uh, listen Cindy.
Cindy, what do you say we take a little spin around the block? Well, yeah! It'd be rad! All right.
Wait a minute.
I got an idea.
You ever been to the parcrest hotel? That place costs a fortune! I just thank god the boys are safe.
Hotels.
Limousines.
That darn kid must have lifted my credit card.
I don't think that's the case, Mr.
Taylor.
No.
It's here.
But how are they paying for all of this? Apparently, they stumbled on quite a bit of money.
Actually, "stole" is a better word Automatic-teller machine? They stole money? How much? Roughly $12,000.
Actually, after the deductions of the hotel bill, limo service, and the motorcycle The boys bought a motorcycle? I figure they're down to about 6,000, 7,000 tops.
Do you know if they bought helmets? $6,000, 7,000 Well, that ain't so bad.
It's the bank's money, Mr.
Taylor.
You do understand that, don't you, sir? Yes, of course.
We're still trying to track them down, but we wanted you to know at least they were safe.
We'll give you a call.
Uh, let me ask you something.
The, um, the stuff they've already bought Um Who gets that? Mom? Mom What are you doing here? I'm just visiting.
Mom? Mom, are you okay? We were just having a little party, honey.
How could you do this?! You promised me! Aw, don't get mad.
This one time won't hurt.
You animal! You did this to her! Hey, I didn't do anything.
She called me.
All I did was help out a friend.
Just get out of here before I kill you.
What? What? You're going to kill me? We got some business to talk over first.
Just get out.
I don't know why you're blaming me for this, Lauren.
I told you she called me.
Hey! What about my cut from last night's job? I got to get my mom out of here.
Somebody's got to pay for your mother's bad habits.
Supply and demand.
When will you learn that you're barely 17? I got to get my mom out of here.
This day is just getting better and better.
Okay, so what happens now? We book you for suspicion of conspiracy in the belmont robberies.
We've got a pretty good case.
You'll probably be sent to a j.
D.
School.
What happens What happens if I tell you who I've been working with? Will I get some kind of deal or something? That's up to the d.
A.
You do some painting? I did one painting.
Why did you stop? Just something else I'm not good at.
I tried meeting you halfway, Lauren.
He junked my mother up again.
She almost had it beat, and he junked her up.
Give me his name, and we'll nail him.
Otherwise he just makes fools of everybody.
Eddie Malone.
I don't think that's his real name.
Do you know where he lives? I reach him by calling some answering service.
Where's your mother? In the bedroom, crashing.
I'll have someone come down take a look at her.
You can stay here with her for now, but you'll need to come to the station later.
Do you understand that? Well, what's going to happen to my mom? Okay.
I'm going to be honest with you, Lauren.
You'll probably be placed in a foster home for a while.
No! I can't leave her.
She needs me.
She needs a lot more help than you could ever give her.
And let me tell you something else: You need to start thinking about what's good for you Lauren! And it may not be good for you to stay with your mom for now.
If you hear from this Eddie dude or you find out where he is, you call me here, okay? All all I was trying to do was start over You know? I know.
I know.
You call me, okay? This place is a perfect example.
These kids are pouring out 20 bucks a night in these machines.
You think they worked for that money? You think they should? Well, you don't? Oh, these kids are young.
They'll work the whole rest of their lives.
They should have fun while they still can.
Do society a favor, Doug: Stay single.
Hi.
You Ted gifford? Yeah.
I think I got one of them missing kids here.
Could you point him out, please? Sure.
This kid on the left.
He wanted me to break a hundred, so I got suspicious.
Good thinking, Ted.
Do you want to show us where he is now? He's right over there by the pin-bot machine.
Thanks a lot.
Hey! Listen.
Do I get a reward or something? Isn't the knowledge of being a responsible citizen reward enough? To tell the truth, I'd rather have the cash.
Are you hungry for that burger yet? Sure.
You want to go now? As soon as this game's over.
It might take a little longer than that, Jordan.
People are looking for you, pal.
I'm finally having fun and now you guys show up? Jordee, who are these guys? Can I have a moment, please? Yeah.
These are police officers.
I'm kind of involved In a grand theft felony.
Neat! That's okay? Yeah, sure.
I mean, I got caught shoplifting once.
All right.
Time's up.
Oh.
I'm sorry, honey.
I'll wait for you, jordee! You hear that? That's your future daughter talking, pal.
My kid would never get caught shoplifting.
So, jordee, what's the story? You're a good kid.
Why'd you steal all that money? It was kind of spontaneous, you know? Sometimes you got to go for it.
Eddie Malone? No.
My name's sherman.
Kyle sherman? Mmm.
Yeah, that's right.
A.
K.

Frank Webster, a.

You got some problem that you want to tell me about? Why don't we look in the Van and find out? Boys, want to open that Van? You need a warrant for that, lady.
Eddie.
Oh! Well, well.
Party's over, creep.
Good job.
Spread 'em.
Get him out of here.
No, no listen Listen, I'm going to be out in a couple hours.
So maybe we could talk some business.
I bet you could make a good buck on the streets.
You okay? Yeah.
He's right, you know.
I want to move Lauren out out of her house while he's still tied up.
Lauren? Hello? Lauren? There's nobody here.
They're gone.
You mean gone as in gone for good? Well, I guess she just got tired of being used, you know, Harry? By Eddie, by her mother By me.
I don't understand.
I mean, she left everything behind.
But when you're starting over, I guess you don't need an old sofa.
Yeah, I understand that, but Uh, excuse me.
Hey! Come in! You guys want a drink or something? Uh, no, thanks.
We're on duty.
Hey! What's going on? This is my lawyer and a couple of movie studio guys.
They want to make a picture about those crazy kids' adventures.
The phone has been ringing off the hook with offers.
How about that? Lots of big numbers being tossed around, Greg? Let me tell you This is the best thing that ever happened to me.
Mr.
Taylor, when was the last time you read the state criminal code? I'm waiting for the movie.
There's this little section in there that says that any personal gain derived by the commercialization of a criminal act must be turned over to the state.
Wait a second.
Do you mean I'm not gonna get any of this money? How about that huh, Greg? Say, where are those crazy kids, greggy? Out in the yard.
Ah.
This is Trish Jones reporting.
Thanks, guys.
Uh, yo, Trish.
You busy tonight? Yeah.
Catch you later.
Much.
Hey, guys! What's going on? You guys are making out okay, I see.
Let me tell you, Doug Chicks dig celebrities.
Just a fact of life.
I'm glad to see probation isn't cramping your style.
Nah.
