when your back is to the wall

you'll need us cause

? You'd better be ready
to, be ready to jump

? Jump Street

- [Doctor] You
sleep okay at night?

- It's the only time to
catch black and white movies.

- Any nightmares?

- Another Dodger World Series.

- Baseball isn't the issue here

and if this is gonna work,

we have to communicate.

- Congratulations, you're
officially a woman.

- [Doctor] Thanks
for validating me.

You want to tell
me what that meant?

- You know you sound
just like my girlfriend.

She's always on this,

I want to get to know you
better stuff, let's communicate.

- And you have a
problem with that?

- No, I don't have
a problem with it.

What is it with you?

I came here to
talk about my case

and all you can do is nag
me like my girlfriend.

- Okay.

Why don't you just
tell me what happened?

- It all started to go
bad a few weeks ago.

- This is the same one
we rented last week.

- Yeah.

The best parts coming up.

What are you doing?

- He turns into a vampire
and he drains his girlfriend

while they're making love.

- It's good.

- The first time it's erotic.

The second time it's cute

but after times
Dennis, it's just boring.

- Okay, what do you want to do?

- Why don't we just talk.

- Alright.

I'm on this case and one of
the kids has an older brother

who deals to him.

- I don't want to
hear about your case.

I want to hear about you.

- Jessica you asked me
to talk and I'm talking.

- Okay.

So why don't you
tell me how you got

that scar on your knee

or why you hate
Chinese food so much

or what your nickname
was when you were a kid.

- I fell off my bike,

found a worm in an egg roll,

Joe cool.

- What's going on here, Dennis?

When we first met we
clicked so immediately.

I thought I knew you

but the more we hang out,

I'm not sure I know you at all.

- Look, that's
just the way I am.

I keep to myself.

You're as much a part
of my life as anybody.

- I don't know what
to tell you Dennis.

I love you and I
need more than this.

(rock and roll music)

- Dude my Dad use to get
stoned to this stuff.

- Hey guys we're keeping
wasteoid traditional

live in the family.

(laughing)

- Damn straight.

It's our mission in life.

- You have a family
tradition Bobby.

Your brother Matt
deals, you deal.

- Matt's a dealer, I'm not.

- So what are you?

- Bored.

- Hey, you know that dork
in drivers ed, Tyler?

- Yeah.

- He's a narc.

Right toad man.

- So why, he bust some guy?

- Nah, I just heard.

- You should ask him,

cause I heard if you go
up to an undercover cop

and you say, "hey
man are you a narc?"

He legally has to say yes.

(laughing)

- Well if that was
true and he said yes,

I'd go man you're a
non-disposable douche.

If I want to be a wasteoid
then I'll be a wasteoid

and then I'd kick
his righteous ass.

(laughing)

- It's not true dude, they
don't have to tell you nothing.

- So how do you know?

- It's like one of those,

she can't get pregnant
on the first time things.

- So you know a lot
about cops, huh?

Oh no man I just ate some downs.

I'm fine, really.

- Where'd you get
downs, Crowsley?

- I'm getting a beer.

- Would you get me one?

- Sure, sweetheart.

- I thought I knew you.

(rock music)

- Here.

- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

- Bobby, time we go
and meet your brother.

- Where's the phone,
I'll call him.

- Where you going?

- Little privacy.

- [Toad Man] We should
get Joey high sometimes.

- [Becky] Yeah, make
the nights easier.

(laughing)

- [Jerry] Does for me.

- What time is it?

- Dude's late.

- What happened to Bobby?

- Is everything alright
between you two?

- Kinda.

- Chet, where's Matt?

- Matt, huh.

He's got some
major business man.

So he sent me as his,
you know, representative.

- What is this?

Matt ain't got time for us.

We don't need know flunky
peddling left over crumbs.

(police sirens)

- [Christine] Somebody narced.

- You only transferred
in two weeks ago.

- Hey genius I'm
getting arrested.

- Yeah well maybe
it's just a cover up.

- Dennis gets more
wasted than any of us.

- How do we know
he isn't faking.

- Look loser, who was
the one that made the buy

with Ronnie last week.

Narcs can't make a sell
without busting the guy.

- That's right.

- Bobby.

Remember when he
made that phone call.

- [Teacher] Allen.

- [Allen] Here.

- [Teacher] Anderson.

- [Anderson] Likewise.

- [Teacher] Baldwin.

- [Baldwin] Present.

- [Teacher] Bates.

- [Bates] Yeah.

- [Teacher] Bennett.

- [Bennett] Here.

- [Teacher] Burnett.

- [Burnett] Dido.

- [Teacher] Blake.

- [Blake] Yep.

- [Teacher] Clayman.

Bobby Clayman?

[Teacher] Crowsley.

- [Crowsley] Yeah.

- [Teacher] Lewis.

Since your news is,
obviously, more interesting

than my class, why don't
you share it with everybody.

- I really don't think
you want to hear this.

- Enrich us with your wisdom.

- Bobby Clayman was found in
the trashcan this morning,

sh*t in the head.

(suspenseful music)

- What's the problem
here, Booker?

How come you won't
report to the chapel?

- Is your cover blown?

- A kid was sh*t in the head.

- We know that.

That kid wasn't you.

- It should have been.

- Booker.

- Okay, meant to be.

- Look, homicide's working on
this thing around the clock

but, so far, nothing.

Did you come up with anything?

- Nah, I mean those
kids, they uh...

- They suspicious?

- Yeah.

- You know that for sure?

- I hear stuff, see stuff.

- Anything specific?

- I got a feeling.

- You know you
don't look so good.

- I'm fine.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, I'm fine.

- When one of those kids reaches

into his jacket for a lighter,

you still gonna be fine?

- Look, if you pull me out now

I'll never get
another guy back in.

Besides, I think I can
play the girlfriend

to find out who
wanted Bobby wasted.

- Look Booker, you
didn't k*ll that kid.

- I didn't pull the trigger

but someone out there
knew there was a narc.

They just got the wrong guy.

- Bobby was the first
dude to get me high.

He got me in with you guys.

I owed him

but he narced.

I'm mad if one of
you k*lled him,

I owe you more.

(tense music)

Things like this man,

that's the reason
they invented dr*gs.

- Hey just be quiet.

We're paying our respects.

- That guy's a cop.

- [Booker] How do you know?

- He's looking around,

you can tell nobody knows him.

Man I can spot a
cop in a second.

- [Jerry] Hey, check out Matt.

He's getting stoned
at his brothers wake.

- You think he's
still in business?

- I don't know,
let's go find out.

Hey dude, we just wanted you

to know that we still
think you're cool.

I mean even though your
brother was a narc,

we'll still deal
with you, you know.

- You mongoloids make me puke.

Get out of my face.

- Hey man, what gives?

- Bobby wasn't a cop.

- You don't know that,
you're as stupid as you look.

- No way man, it was obvious.

- If Bobby was a narc,

hey where the hell
were all the other cops

at the funeral, huh?

Where's the flag on the
coffin and the news guys?

Under cover cop k*lled in
drug deal film at , huh?

- You're just covering because
it be bad for business.

- Bad for business, man.

You guys are bad for business.

(door slamming)

- Have you ever had
someone die before,

someone you cared about?

- Kinda.

Um,

my Dad.

My folks split up, my
father disappeared.

- So you never saw him again?

- We saw each other
once in a while

but he wasn't the same guy.

It was like he d*ed.

- It's weird being
up here with you.

- Why?

- Bobby use to take me here.

- Do you wanna go
someplace else?

- No, I don't mind
being up here with you.

I feel closer to
you than anybody.

(sigh)

- I feel the same way too.

Hey.

What's going on?

What's the matter?

- [Jerry] Matt won't deal with
us until we find the narc,

he swears it's one of us.

- So we gotta search
everyone's house.

- Come on.

- Never been to
your house, Dennis.

- You know you guys are
just being your own narcs.

You're no better.

Alright, it's no big deal.

We'll meet after
school, then go.

- No, we go now.

- Dennis, what are you?

- Uh Mom, is your
old man around?

Well is he?

- No, he's at work.

- Good.

I'm going upstairs with
my friends, alright.

Don't bother us.

Let's go.

- You make your bed Dennis?

- I don't sleep here much.

- How come?

- I get too wasted to
deal with my parents.

- [Toad Man] Where do you crash?

- In my car, wherever.

- Who are these guys, I've
never seen them around before?

- Oh it's a birthday
party for me

with a bunch of friends
from my old school.

- Lots of candles.

- You see this guy Tom,

biggest dealer in my old school.

- Seven, eight, nine.

- You know if we can get
Matt to deal with us,

this guy right here
would buy major quantity.

- [Becky] Thirteen,
fourteen, fifteen.

- Dammit, can't I have
friends over without you

hanging around my room.

- Don't talk to me like that.

- I'll do what I want.

The first time I
have friends over,

you gotta be ragging.

- Get out, all of you.

Go do your dope somewhere else.

- Bye mom.

- Let go of me.

- You're not going anywhere.

- Make up your mind lady.

- No, it's alright Dennis.

We'll see you later.

- I uh,

I'm sorry.

- No, it's alright.

I was more shocked to
see you than those kids.

Are they dangerous?

- Nah them, it was
just a tense moment.

It's no big deal.

(suspenseful music)

(upbeat music)

- [Booker] See those
guys over there?

- Yeah.

- They're narcs.

- You know them?

- No but didn't you see
how they stopped talking

when the waitress went by, huh.

- I think they're just
checking out her behind.

- No, they got
mannerisms, narcs do.

- Come on, sh**t the pool.

- You gotta watch it.

Can't give things
away, you know.

Remember when we were in school.

Kids use to hang out
like this, really casual.

Now they're more like this.

Kids know man, they can tell,

they can see right through it.

Gotta bend your toes, you know.

That, kind of thing,
can give you away.

(rock and roll music)

- You know Ed Simpson?

He got busted for dr*gs

but he got off

cause the cop ate
a beauty with him.

- That guy will say anything.

- No man, the cops they can't
break the law to enforce it.

- That's right, Toadster.

- So, in case, any of
you guys were wondering,

I ain't no pig.

(laughing)

(rock and roll music)

- Cheers dude.

- They kick in around
the third song.

- Now I'm ready
to rock and roll.

Where's the beer?

(coughing)

- [Christine] Dennis,
you okay in there?

Dennis?

- I'll be right out.

Alright, Jerry.

We all passed your test.

Let's track down Matt and
get back down to business.

- No Crowsley, this
is just the midterm.

- Oh come on man,
this is getting old.

- No one knew about
the deal that night,

except us and Matt
and Matt ain't a narc.

So it's one of you.

Yeah or you

or you.

You not only busted us
but you got Bobby k*lled

to cover your tracks.

So this is for Bobby.

- Okay man.

What's the rest of your test.

- Sleep tight Joey.

Your troubles are
over and so are ours.

Any one of you is a narc,

you're about to blow your cover.

- No!

I'm not a narc.

I'm scared.

I'm really scared

but I can't do this.

I swear I didn't tell the cops.

I didn't k*ll Bobby

but we can't do this.

- Yeah well, maybe, this is
a narcs way of stopping us

without getting himself k*lled.

- You're the one with
all the tests man,

maybe you're a narc.

I've got your test
right here pal.

So I must be your narc, huh.

(loud shattering)

(alarm ringing)

You bunch of frickin cowards.

All this talk was
bull, you know that.

Let's all go to jail, huh.

Let's all go to jail.

(loud shattering)

(police sirens)

- Dennis come on!

- Dennis.

- I'll pay you back.

- Are you okay?

- Yeah.

- Isn't your captain suppose
to take care of these things.

- I didn't call him.

I can't call him, they'd know.

They'd know I was the cop.

- Mind if I sit
down for a minute.

- No, go ahead.

- Dennis, I know that we
haven't been very close

since your father
and I split up.

- It's water under
the bridge Mom,

it doesn't matter any more.

- Dennis, you were
my first born.

No child in the world received
more love than you did.

- Come on Mom, don't
start with that stuff.

- I'm not asking you to
be my little boy again

but I want you to share
some of your life with me.

Is that too much to ask?

- Yes.

I don't share my life with
anybody, I can't help it.

That's just the way I am.

- You know I don't even know
if you have a girlfriend or not

but if you do, you
better sit down with her

and tell her what
you're going through

because you're scared Dennis.

It's written all over your face.

- [Dennis] Hey.

- Hey.

I guess tonight's laundry night.

- Good memory.

- I wanted to tell
you something.

- What?

- It's um,

I guess I forgot.

- I thought you were
cutting back on those.

- Yeah.

Well I gotta be some
place in a little while.

Stake out, you know.

You want to come over later?

- Sure.

- Great.

- Dennis,

I love you.

- I uh,

I'll see you later, okay.

- I'm glad you
came over tonight.

I really needed to be with you.

- Why, what's wrong?

- I don't know.

Everybody's just getting crazy.

It just scares me.

- Yeah, I know.

I've been thinking about Bobby.

I mean one minute he's
our friend for life

and the next minute we're
spitting on his grave.

I can't stop thinking about it.

It makes me sick.

- I only did it because
everybody else did.

- Everybody's going crazy.

- I won't let anything
happen to you Dennis.

- What do you mean?

- I mean I'll stick by you,

no matter what happens.

- You're the only one who
didn't try to nail me, why?

- From the first time I met
you, I felt like I knew you.

God, I'm so afraid
of being alone.

- Me too.

- Dennis,

I love you.

- I uh,

I love you.

- No.

- What's the matter?

- Bobby, I uh...

I'd feel too weird.

(suspenseful music)

(tense music)

(footsteps)

(suspenseful music)

(gasp)

- What the hell
are you doing here?

How did you get in?

- You gave me the key, remember.

I'll call you later.

(laughing)

- Hey dude, what
happened to you?

- [Jerry] Your mom
bailed you out, huh?

- Yeah.

- Dude, last night
was totally bodacious.

You trashed this place.

The tests are over.

- Alright, now that we're
all bonafide wasteoids,

let's get back to
Matt, do some dealing.

- Okay, I'll set
it up with Matt.

It's been way too long
since our last party.

- Tell Matt we'll
do it at my house.

- Who's making the
arrest tonight?

- Fuller, myself

and uh,

some backup.

- Tell them to bust
me with the kids.

- Why, once we tag these guys

you're not going to
need your cover anymore.

- I don't want to say that uh...

- You don't want to
flash your badge,

that's the best part.

- Just do it.

- [Jerry Voiceover]
You not only busted us

but you got Bobby k*lled

to cover your tracks.

- [Mom Voiceover] It's
written all over your face.

- Dennis I love you.

- You're about to
blow your cover.

- I'm the narc.

I'm the narc.

Hey, what are you doing here?

- Hi.

Dennis, Matt won't
deal at my house.

We've all got to meet
at this other place.

- Alright, okay I've
just got to get...

- No, we've got to
go now, we're late.

- Hey can we stop for a coke?

- Matt says he'll leave if
we're not there by eight.

(tense music)

- Where's Dennis and Christine?

- They're off
doing it somewhere.

- Come on man, let's just
do this and get out of here.

(police siren)

- Where is everybody?

- They're not coming till later.

I wanted to talk to you.

- What'd you want to talk about?

- Do you ever lie Dennis?

That girl in your apartment,
do you ever lie to her?

I know you're the narc.

I realized it last night when
you wouldn't make love to me.

I know you wanted to.

I could feel it.

- Christine, I didn't
mean to hurt you.

- Yeah, it was just
part of your job.

Nice job you have Dennis,

getting girls to
fall in love with you

and then busting them.

- I need to know
who k*lled Bobby.

- So why didn't you
make love to me?

Maybe I would have told
you who k*lled Bobby.

- You know?

- It k*lled me when I
heard Bobby was a narc.

He betrayed us.

How could you turn on
the people you love.

- You k*lled him.

- I was protecting my friends.

We weren't hurting anyone.

What would you do if someone
you loved turned you in

and tried to ruin
everyone you cared about?

- He didn't betray you.

- I know,

you did.

You made me think that
Bobby was the narc

and then you made me
fall in love with you.

What should I do now?

Should I let you turn me in?

- Christine,

don't do this.

- Why?

Do you want me to forgive you?

I forgive you Dennis.

- I want you to think
about your life.

- My life

is nothing now.

I thought I knew you Dennis.

I really believed
that you loved me.

- I do love you.

- Enough to forgive
me for k*lling Bobby?

Life or death Dennis

because the only thing that
can save us now is love.

Will you be with me?

Will you love me forever?

- Yes.

- Say it!

- I will love you forever.

- Oh Dennis,

you're lying.

- Christine no!

No!

I guess they were both right.

- [Doctor] Who?

Christine and Jessica.

I mean they were the same person

and the only way I
could give to somebody

was when I had to pretend
to because it was my job.

- You're a good cop Dennis.

- What's it matter.

You hunt and get hunted

and all you can do is get
k*lled in the line of duty

or you end up alone because
you couldn't love anybody.

- Everybody wonders if what
they do with their life

has any value at all.

That's the basic faith
and if you lose that,

you've lost yourself.

- I just don't want to feel
worthless anymore, you know.

Please,

tell me what to do.

Take some time off.

Just be with yourself.

Look inside and maybe you'll
find what you're looking for.

- Oh I'm sorry, I
thought I knew you.
