21 Jump Street s01e13 Episode Script

1 Come on, it's the kkk.
Get up, man.
Get up.
So what happened? Same crap you went through, man.
"You remember the kkk kid?" "How did you get spray paint on your face?" "What do you know about this kid in the parking lot?" Ballhaus had his head so far up there he'll never see daylight.
Great.
Can we go? What time is it, man? He made me miss dinner.
Hey, not kkk.
No, not kkk, man.
Spooky: Anarchy.
The anarchy police.
You get it, man? The only one who can catch us, man.
The anarchy police.
Yeah, yeah, we get it.
Now get in.
That's great.
I love it.
That's great.
The kkk put another kid in the hospital today.
That makes three gang-related injuries in the last 30 days.
This guy a "friendly neighbour"? Yeah, they seem to be the latest target.
Downtown questioned the kids involved and then cut them loose.
Well, that's good.
Let them get back to their full-time job as vandals.
Fuller: Look, there's been $200,000 in damage in this district in the last six weeks.
Now captain ballhaus is all over us to do something about these gangs or he will.
Ballhaus as in "bad news ballhaus"? Man loves his riot gear.
Studs and leather, here I come.
Kkk, awesome band.
Band? Kkk klean kut kids.
It's a band.
It's a gang.
It's a floor wax.
You got to keep up with popular culture, hanson.
Sorry, penhall.
They're not gonna buy two of you.
One of you goes in hardcore.
The other's just a student.
Hanson? Are you breaking the laws of nature here? I'm a natural.
Look, these are bright, middle-class kids.
It's not just studs and leather.
Yep, I'm ready, coach.
Ready? Hanson, we're talking a slug lord here.
Ever been slam dancing? No.
You ever leapt off a stage into the arms of strangers with mohawks? Ever done any speaker diving? Not that I can remember.
But I'm sure I can handle it.
Why? What's the big deal? They got to believe you from the get-go.
You've got to be full-blown from the start.
Fuller, I should be the lead man on this.
I'm a natural.
Come here, baby.
Brian: You're just not aggressive enough, darby.
Ace, is there another place open or what? I've seen you guys around and stuff, you know.
I haven't seen you.
I just came in from Oklahoma a couple weeks ago so I haven't found my way to school yet.
Brian: That guy's gonna enforce the curfew, huh? Let's not loiter here, guys.
There's got to be people waiting for even you at home.
It's late.
Yeah, sure, man.
Once it's after 9:00, all I get is a "tough love" bumper sticker and a couple of quarters taped to my door.
There's an ordinance.
Cop: Let's go, and get rid of that beer.
Now.
I can't leave you girls alone for a second.
Let's get the heck out of here.
Yeah? Some other time.
Yeah.
Sure.
Maybe tomorrow, if you can find your way to school.
Not tonight.
Come on, guys.
What are we gonna do now, man? Relax.
Five bucks.
Five bucks.
Five bucks.
All right, man, divvy up.
I ain't got no cash.
Here you go, Lance.
What are you laughing at, Alice? Five snotnoses trying to get five bucks together.
You're a funny guy.
You know, man, this thing was completely bizarre.
I mean, it's like this weird, deviate, aboriginal offshoot.
Let me guess.
You stood in the corner and took notes all night.
No, man, I got out there and got into it.
You slammed and I missed it? Yeah.
You get out there and you bash into a bunch of other guys.
You sweat a lot.
I mean, it's just another subculture Breaking rules, pecking orders, that type of thing.
You could make a freaking documentary.
See, all the kids who are outsiders everywhere else, they come there to be together.
Instant acceptance.
I'm not listening to a sociology report from a guy in Scottish-plaid bondage pants.
Lancer: Let's teach this fool a lesson.
See? There's always something to do.
Yeah! Good-bye, Alice.
Laurel.
Laurel, I've been looking for you.
Girls, would you excuse us, please? This is darby.
One of you open the door for him.
Haskell You were in b.
C.
Calc at your old school, right? Yeah.
This should be pretty straightforward, then.
You can start handing in assignments tomorrow.
Brian You got a minute? Nice work.
Oh, thanks.
So how are things going? Fine, as long as you keep giving me marks like that.
No.
I mean like after school.
How's your life? My life's fine, Mr.
wiedlin.
How's your life? Seems to me that I've seen you with some, uh Pretty unsavory types lately.
Same people as always.
Yeah? Well, maybe they've changed.
Maybe.
You dropped out of the student council.
You had a shot at president.
You didn't turn out for soccer or the paper.
Well, maybe they just weren't that important.
You sure everything's okay? Hey, these are the best years of my life.
You're up, sid.
What do you want, scotamunga? Well, when I eat standing up I tend to have a problem with my milk.
Why are you here? Didn't we just cover that? No, why are you at Hamilton in the middle of the semester? I came from Oklahoma.
Don't you think that's enough of a reason? No.
Yeah, well, I was living with my mother.
Things weren't going too well so she shipped me off to my stepdad.
Yeah.
That's too bad.
Yeah, everyone's got some story.
My b-o-y, tober here He's got it serious.
He's been squatting for over a month.
Hasn't been home at all.
Yeah, most nights I sleep in a goodwill box, man.
What was with that band from last night? What are you, like You guys are, like, named after them or something? You really want to know? Hear it from the man himself.
After school, down the street.
Great.
Lancer: Don't you see it, man? It's like if you don't fit their idea of perfect they feel they got to fix you, make you better.
They send you to the orthodontist, the dermatologist.
And they get you speech lessons, ballet lessons, piano lessons The whole shot.
I don't know, man.
It's hard to figure who disgusts them more.
I mean, face it.
These aren't people capable of liking themselves, man.
Is there any big wonder that they hate you? Huh? My mother's incapable of loving my father, yeah, but I don't know about the rest of that stuff.
Maybe I should speak a little slower so you can keep up.
Penhall: Ow, ow, ow.
He's ugly.
And you know what? He's stupid.
And he's concerned with a number of issues clearly outside his sphere of influence.
Namely us.
I thought this bore a response.
I see.
I say you take him out back and stomp him.
Come on, guys.
That's what I had in mind.
Hey, man Dougie, Dougie, let me handle this.
You handle this? Who the heck are you? That's tom.
Haskell, I think.
He's new.
Great.
Another stupid new kid.
Fine.
I can see I'm gonna have to put this into terms you can understand.
That's my stepbrother, Douglas.
He's kind of lame, but it's not his fault.
You kick his tail, he tells my stepdad.
My stepdad kicks my tail.
Then I'm gonna have to come back here and kick your tails.
So why don't we leave him out of it and let me kick your tail right now? Tough talk, junior.
Yeah, you see, uh Nice custom, giving gifts to newcomers like that.
I appreciate it.
Check this guy out, huh? You really thought I was going to stick you, huh, man? I like that.
You're all right.
I tell you what, tom.
We won't trash your stepbrother here.
But why don't you do us all a big favor.
Teach him how to dress, huh? You all right, man? Penhall: Hey, man, we've been waiting here for three hours.
When are the neighbours going to show? Come on, man, I thought you lived for this stuff Crawling around the underbelly.
This ain't junk food.
This is junk, junk food.
We used to call this place the attack dog because 20 minutes later Ah, the neighbours.
Hey, neighbour.
Come on.
What are you doing here? You guys are dead, all of you, freaking dead.
We're going to kill you.
Yeah, well, you're gonna have to get out of the car.
Come on, man.
Is there a particular reason for this hostility? You put a neighbour in the hospital.
We got rooms reserved for the rest of you in the same hall.
Neighbour? Not my neighbour.
Yeah, the one you yanked out of a truck Hey! You guys think you're so tough.
You think you scare everybody.
Shut up! He shouldn't have been there.
What is this? You own the beach? You just didn't have to do him like that.
We're gonna stomp you, break your bones, make you bleed.
I said shut up.
I'm totally terrified, man.
Come on, get out of the car.
Ahhhh! Yeah! Did you see their faces, man? Yeah, they were freaked.
Yeah, that was real useful.
Was there any point in trashing that kid at the beach? I heard about that.
I don't think we really meant to trash him.
I mean any more than the others.
Lancer thought it was cool.
Hey, we told him about it.
We didn't mean to trash him.
Hey, man, they should have known not to have been there.
I mean, uh Lancer thought it was great.
I used to think it was kind of cool.
But it's getting pretty old.
I mean, enough people in the hospital, huh? See, nobody really comes up against us much anymore.
They're afraid now.
They stay away.
I guess that's good.
Yo, tom, we were supposed to be home hours ago.
Dad's going to kick our tail up and down.
Come on, let's go.
Night-night already, huh? You know, you should really change your name, Doug.
You wouldn't be so much of a dweeb, all right? See, it's like spooky's mom didn't name him that.
My 'rents didn't name me tober.
Just like your hair, man, and the clothes you wear.
You can be what you want to be.
Names other people give you, they just aren't important.
Why would you want to be called tober? It's my favorite month.
October, man.
It's when everything dies.
That's it.
I'm out of here.
I don't care what's going through your brain.
You do whatever you want.
Deal with dad on your own.
I ain't any part of it.
You tell dad maybe I'll come home tonight, maybe I won't.
Hey, man.
You sure it's okay? It's like 3:30 in the morning.
My mom knows if I bring somebody home, they're cool.
Look, I'm, uh I'm going to study for a while.
This is for you.
This isn't going to bother you, is it? Oh, no, not at all.
Not at all.
I see you're in a lot of the advanced placement courses.
Yeah, if you take enough of them, they let you into college straight as a sophomore.
That will save my mom a lot of money.
You plan on going? Yeah.
Don't you? Oh, yeah, sure.
Yeah.
Of course.
Let me ask you another question.
Why are you in the kkk? I mean, uh Why do you stick around? That would be a very long conversation.
If we ever had it.
All right.
Good night, man.
Hanson.
Don't you ever do that again.
You call, you send somebody, you get yourself arrested.
But you do not leave me sitting here wondering whether or not you are alive.
Penhall said he stuck with you for as long as possible and then he came back here and reported in.
Which is what you are supposed to do.
Yes, sir.
Don't ever separate from your partner and not call in.
I want to know whether or not you're dead or alive.
Otherwise, I don't sleep well at night.
I don't sleep well, I come in in a bad mood.
Yes, sir.
Tell me where you were.
Well, uh Brian gans, one of the gang kids He's sort of second in command under this lancer character He invited me home.
It's funny, though.
This Brian kid He could be me.
These are kids just trying to leave some kind of a mark.
They're not hardened criminals by any means.
What are you telling me? I'm telling you I think we need to bust the guy who's running them.
This lancer guy.
Yeah, he's the lead singer in that band they worship.
Okay.
Okay, but we got to be careful not turn this guy into a martyr.
I know it.
I got to tell you, captain, Fuller, I don't understand his gig.
What does he want with a bunch of high school kids? You said it yourself.
They worship his band.
Sounds to me like lancer wants to be god.
It's a very appealing position to be in when you think of it.
Yeah.
All right, listen, you go get yourself some rest.
Catch up with them at the end of the day.
Right.
And, hanson You're doing good work here.
Just keep trying to get close to this kid.
Thanks, captain.
Get away from me.
How about a little two-hand touch? What, are you kidding.
Man? Come on, I just feel like it.
Lancer's gonna be waiting for us.
Are you guys afraid to play a little football? Yo, over here.
Spooky, go long.
This is a stupid idea, man.
I'll go long.
Scrap that.
Darby: What about lancer? Come on.
Girls, come on, you're playing.
You're on our team.
Is that your girlfriend? Hey, Doug, come on, let's play some football.
Okay, everybody go long, right, like they're blocking for Steve.
Tober, you go out 5 yards straight out, turn around.
I'll hit you.
Let's hurt 'em.
Dish left.
Crunch right.
Pastrami.
Burrito.
Hut-hut.
See, I told you.
There's lancer, man.
Hi.
What's up? We're just playing a little football.
Are we having fun? We were going to be over.
We lost track of the time.
We're there every day.
What do you think you're doing, Brian? You trying to prove a little point here? You don't think I could get them to turn on you in a minute? I've known these guys since grade 3.
They were my friends before they knew you.
Right now, if I hit you do you think they'd run over here and help? Or you think they'd all join in and we'd stomp you right here in front of your little friends? You're wrong.
If I told them that you weren't worth hanging out with anymore they'd stop.
Things would go back to the way they were before.
You're out of the crosswalk, lancer.
Oh.
Jaywalking.
What the heck are they doing? That's littering.
Obstructing an officer, and that's gonna cost you 60 bucks.
How much was the jaywalking? $35.
Great.
Well, listen If you guys could add that up Send me a bill.
All right, lancer! You can all go in on a disorderly.
You like that? Don't you got anything better to do? I'm gonna give you another ticket.
Certainly might have been an accident.
But laws are laws.
You know, that makes sense, because certainly couldn't be that you guys are a couple of tube cases.
Lancer, man.
He's giving it to them.
What are you doing? Get up.
Lancer: Hey, sooner or later, you guys are gonna whack me a couple of times.
And you're gonna throw me down in the middle of the street, felony prone.
I know the drill.
Tell him, man.
Tell him.
Get out of the street.
Yeah, right.
So you can arrest me for attacking an officer? Hmm? You're going to shoot me, man.
No, I'm going to stay down here where it's nice and safe.
Hands behind your back.
Get off him.
Darby: You guys stink.
I'll see you guys tomorrow, huh? Imbeciles.
Cops are all defectives.
All three of them are defectives.
Let's go do something.
Let's go out and do some damage now.
Curfew's in 15 minutes.
So what? I'm just saying.
You don't want to do anything about this, do you? I thought we had to teach the cops a lesson for busting lancer.
So I called them.
And I told them there was a robbery down at the baywood market.
In about two minutes guess who's gonna come rolling by back on his bike? And guess what's gonna be stretched across the road hitting him chest high at 35 miles an hour? Yeah? You could cut off his head! Yeah? Well, cool.
We've got to bust them before they slice and dice this cop.
Think that's tough? You're a tough guy.
Who's side are you on? He's already gone.
Stupid!! Okay, easy.
We've got to call Fuller.
Looks like there's gonna be trouble.
Hoffs: Hanson, where are you? Fuller's out trying to find you guys.
You got to get those kids off the street.
What do you mean, they won't go home? Ballhaus is moving in, man.
He's bringing in the gas and the dogs.
And he said any kid breaking curfew is fair game.
You better move fast.
You got about five minutes.
And I can't help myself by feeling sorry Because I gave up every chance I had And something new is just another fad In a world gone mad Hey, I heard you guys got busted.
"Bad news" ballhaus, man.
Got 16 of us.
Yeah, some anarchists Half these kids posted bail with their credit cards! Here's some pics and prints of your boy lancer, and a real name to go with it.
Charles Nathan king? Yo, he's on parole! We got him for an a.
D.
W.
On hanson.
That ought to be enough to violate him.
About this lancer I know.
I read it.
Look, the uniforms overreacted last night They moved in too fast.
You're telling us.
Yeah, ballhaus is going for blood on this.
They want to cut us out of the program Handle it in the typical fashion.
Translation bust more heads! If we don't make an arrest soon it's gonna be over.
I'll bust lancer myself.
Do you still think that's the way to go? No.
Penhall: Are you crazy? He tried to stab you.
Hanson, you're no longer on this man's Christmas card list.
I think if we can turn this kid Brian around we can get the other ones to follow.
Good instinct.
I think you're right.
Just remember Lancer didn't have much to begin with.
Now he's gonna lose being god.
Violence, random destruction another confrontation with the police.
He's gonna do whatever it takes to hold on to them.
Watch your backs.
Are you gonna play tonight or what? What else do we have to do? No, man, I don't think so.
I mean, what's the point? Why should I go up on stage and sing about anarchy, huh? No, I think it's about time the cops got taught a thing or two.
Unless you guys would rather sit around and listen to somebody sing.
Is that what you want to do? I mean, it's like Sometimes when the system breaks down there's no use in trying to fix it.
It's better to tear the whole thing down.
Start all over again.
Know what I mean? The whole thing.
Wouldn't you agree, tom? Like real anarchy.
Like we do anything we want To anyone we want.
You guys are serious? Don't you think it's a good idea, Brian? I was just checking.
You're darned right I'm serious.
Okay.
You're serious.
Are you coming with us? Are you gonna be able to keep up with me? Thanks, man.
$150,000 damage in one night.
Mailboxes.
Lawns torn to shreds.
Spray paint from one end of the neighborhood to the other.
The whole gang is implicated, sir.
But it's still just vandalism, captain Fuller.
It stopped being vandalism at 1:00 A.
M.
this morning down at mercy.
The kid the kkk pulled out of that truck the other day is dead.
Blood clot from the break in his arm went up to his brain.
Just like a stroke.
Kid was a ninth-grader at Walter Reed.
Whoever was in the kkk car was participating in second-degree manslaughter.
Look, guys The chief of police is getting all sorts of pressure from the mayor.
We have got to get some people in on this.
We got to get a body count.
Captain, trust me on this.
I think I can turn these guys and prevent a blood bath.
What I got to do is get Brian to expose lancer to these other guys, show them what a fraud he really is.
And then if I can do that, believe me, the other guys will take a walk and all these troubles will disappear.
But what about Brian? I don't know.
I think he's almost there.
At least I hope he is.
Get on it.
This has all gone too far.
It's gotten to the unnecessary stage.
Yep.
There's no point.
So what? We got arrested.
Lancer went to jail.
Big deal! Now we're going to go out and make it worse.
It just used to be fun.
You picked up on it right away.
The rest of them can't see it.
They've been in it too long.
So why don't you quit? And what? Go back to being a jock? Join the student council, for gosh sakes? Why not? Why not? It's like a train.
It won't slow down, and you can't get off.
Hey You don't have to go.
How about that? Man! Relax.
That's nice.
Make sure that Mike's on.
Fuller wants everything on tape.
All right.
Yeah! You like that, huh? There's more where that came from.
You see, darby and tober and I took a little walk and we decided what if we threw these things at something A little more useful? Like a black-and-white? Or better yet, the police station? I mean, why not? They're gonna come after us anyhow.
Why don't we just go there? That's right.
We can't just sit around and wait, man.
This is a war.
This is the real thing.
There is no other choice.
We ain't going to shoot no one.
But I think it's about time we put a serious scare into them.
Maybe then they'll back off for a while.
That's garbage! You're out of your freakin' mind! Great.
Fink one and fink two speak again.
What do you want to do? You want to go fire guns near cops just to scare them? That's the stupidest thing I ever heard.
Well, who the heck asked you anyway, period? Maybe we ought to just lob a few of these things at you.
It is stupid.
It's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
This whole dang thing is stupid.
What's the matter now, bri? Why don't you let him talk? Nobody wants to die over this.
So we spend a couple hours in jail.
So what? It's the principle, man.
In two years this isn't gonna matter.
And don't give me, who knows if we're gonna be alive in two years 'cause I'm gonna be, and this ain't gonna matter and you're not gonna matter! Maybe you won't be alive in another two minutes, guy.
Jimmy You ready to die for this? Are you ready? You want to burn down the cop station? Maybe.
Steve, you play crazy, but you ain't that stupid.
You want to go to jail? Tober, man You've got enough that doesn't work.
Leave it alone.
Just leave it alone.
Okay.
Fine.
You guys want to be a bunch of wussies Stay here.
No problem.
We can do this without them.
What do you say? Lancer Man, I don't know Not tonight.
I'm going to take these back, too.
Thanks.
I mean You know.
What if he comes back? He's not going to come back.
Is lancer going to jail? Yeah.
Good.
Good goldarn riddance.
I'm okay.
I'll send them home.
Yo, listen up.
Yeah, Brian? We're going home.
It's my fault stocko died.
Come on, man.
It's not your fault.
Okay? I was driving the car.
Oh, man.
You know this means I have to arrest you, right? I know.
I'm sorry.
