Old Boone almost got
hisself caught flat-footed.

Didn't think you could
get this thing together.

I'm bleeding internally.

I have a ruptured spleen.

Yeah, well, you

I've been watching you.

Been about five minutes now.

Uh, I'd like to help you,

but, uh, I just can't
get in the mood.

You hot?

Yeah, baby, I did in a
guy during a robbery.

He pulled a g*n.

I been living out
here for 10, 12 days.

Now I was sure
that I was cooling off

until tonight, and then...

And then the place comes alive,

and there's cops
crawling all over the joint.

And they even got
a twirlybird up there

with a... flying around
with a big light on its belly.

Hey, you plumb got
yourself camouflaged.

They ain't never gonna
find you down here.

Uh, you got any birdshot

for that scatter g*n of yours?

No.

You wouldn't go
lying to old Boone.

You didn't bring no brown
bag of lunch, did you?

Well, lookie here.

One-Adam-12, code 1.

Huh.

Sorry about this, man,

but it's already
too hot around here

with all them cops around.

I don't need you to
call them down on me.

Ah.

By the time they find
you, if you're still alive,

old Boone will be long gone.

Have a nice day.

All units involved

in the search for
the missing officer,


the command post has been moved

out of Griffith Park.

New location is on
Burbank Avenue,


north of the freeway

at the intersection
of Normandie.


Uh, Roger, L27.

Take a look over there
and get back to me.

Who's working the park?

We're concentrating on
this side of the freeway.

We have reason to believe
he got out of the park.

Who says?

Reed, I know this thing
has got you upset...

Mac, don't treat
me like some rookie.

I want to keep
looking in the park.

Reed, we searched
the park methodically.

There's a chance we
could have missed him,

but there's a much
greater chance we didn't.

That means he could
be out here somewhere.

Maybe he's shot,
bleeding to death.

He's my partner, Mac. My friend.

Well, he's my friend, too?

Look, uh, you're tired.

Why don't you get
a cup of coffee?

It's been four hours.

I want to stay out here.

Give me a new area to search.

All right. Start
checking the side streets

north of the freeway

between Pass Avenue
and Glendale Boulevard.

- Sorry, Mac.
- Okay. Get rolling.

1L15, this is 1L20.

Give me your location.

I'm at the intersection

of, uh, Vermont and Normandie.

Reed, are you in the park?

Yes.

Look, Mac, let me make
this one run-through,


and then I'll stay
north of the freeway.


I promise.

Okay.

One pass, and then out.

Stubborn... jerk.

I think I have something.

Do you hear it?
Sounds like an SOS.

It's not getting this far.

You still in the park?

Yeah, I'm a mile south of
Travel Town on Reese Drive.

Mac, let me try something.

Go ahead.

Malloy, do you hear me?

One for yes, two for no.

I'm about a mile
south of Travel Town

on Reese Drive.

Am I near you?

Should I continue
south on this road?

Are you injured, Pete?

Were you shot?

I hear it now, Reed.

I'll send an ambulance
from this side of the park.


Roger, Mac.

Malloy, I'll give
the siren a blast.

Am I close?
