[Chief] This is a briefing,
so I'll be brief.

I have an announcement
of utmost importance, very urgent.

I have it here somewhere.

It's positively critical--

I'll have to take of that parking ticket.

Absolutely crucial--

"inspected by number 14"?

Hit the brakes. Don't you understand?

Oh, the house payment bounced.

Downright momentous--

"you are hereby summoned"?

Is this what you're looking sir.
This one marked, "important announcement"?

That could well be it.

Pickle, is that you?

Yes, Piquel sir. I'm in disguise, sir.

Undercover work.

Perceptive of you to recognize me, sir.

Ah-ha!

Well, as I was saying
before you interrupted...

Sort of on the chilly side and nippy
in here. Mind if I turn up the heat.

This is Fireball Frank,
an expl*sives expert with a short fuse.

He's threatened to blow up our entire city
unless we pay him,

an even billion unmarked bills.

Now, after taxes, that could amount to
to thousands of dollars.

The FBI almost caught him, but--
Excuse me. My ears are popping.

Now, this is agent Tolson,
who was kidnapped by--

Does anyone else hear that?

Uh, hear what, sir?

Couldn't hold out till break time.

Control that appetite, man,
don't let it control you.

Say, Boss, I just noticed--

Later! and remind me
to pick up some butter.

Mr. Fireball says we must meet his demands
within 48 hours or two days,

whichever comes first.

Now, let's get out there
and get that fiend!

Drive carefully. There is chance is ours.

I know something that could help you
break this case, wide open.

And you always say a cop checks
every lead.

Ya, You have a point.

Not a good point, though.
So I'll ignore it.

But this could make your career Lucky.

For once, your wife and daughter
would be proud of you!

[Lucky] I seriously doubt it.
What you mean, "once"?

Forget it don't even answer that.
Just go away.

I can't take any more this
I've spent my most of my life

getting injured and/or
being made a fool of by you!

There you go again!

Just keep a safe distance from me please.

Any place in this time zone is too close.

Now if you'll excuse me,

I'm going to find this felon
and get the promotion I deserve

and I am going to do it alone!

What are you trying to say?

As they say in cartoons,

scram.

Now I understand.

He's worried that this case is danger.

He doesn't want me to get hurt.

What a guy.

Sometimes I think he cares too much,

but I still have something to tell him.

[thud]

[Lucky] Ugh.

[Lucky] Agent Tolson filed his last report
as he was pursuing Frank to this rooftop.

There could be some sort of evidence
up here,

and I really have to quit
talking to myself so much.

[thunder]

Hey, Lucky!

Whoa! Whoa!

So, what are you doing?

At the moment, I'm falling!

Bonkers!

Have a problem?

No, thanks. I already have one.
Didn't I tell you to go away!

All right, Boss.

But not yet! Help me! Then go away.

Okay. Wait!

There's something
I've been trying tell you.

Is this really the time?

Seize the moment! I always say.

You never know when there'll be
a horrible accident.

Quit wasting the few seconds I've left
and tell me!

Mmm... no.

No?

Not till you say I Can help you?

Alright, alright, you can help!

Fireball Frank likes
Firecracker Brand Chili Peppers.

That's it?

That's it!

The 30-story fall
would be less painful, unless--

Hardly anyone eats
Firecracker Chili Peppers.

Six more fingers and I'm pavement pudding.

And there's only one market in the city,
that sells them.

What ? Really!
Why didn't you tell me sooner?

-I've been trying since--
-Fine.

Never mind. Give me a hand.

Thanks. Now if you'll pardon me,

I have to check out this lead.

But Boss, you said I could help.

I lied.

Yeah, ladies and gentlemen,
nothing removes stains faster than...

uh, this stuff I've got here.

It's on sale today only.

Does it really work for reals?

This amazing product removes
stains only a dog can hear it.

It's-- What are you doing here?

Shh! Shopping.

And you need a much better disguise.

You've got you written all over you.

Did you see that?

You almost blew my cover,
you made me lose my temper before--

Fireball Frank!

Stop, in the name of the--

law.

No!

[tires screech]

[tire screeching]

Take a left. Left. Right.

[Bonkers] Right, right.

Left, left.

Right, left, right--wait!

[siren warbles]

[Bonkers] No, Lucky, your other right!

I lost him, along with any hope
of getting promotion.

Shh! Boss, don't whine so loud.
Look over there.

Got the chilli peppers.
Now for the b*mb parts.

I'm goin' after him... alone.

Over my dead body!

[nervous giggle] It's okay if I listen
to the radio while I wait.

It's finally here-- my ticket to the top.

The first moment of the first day
of the rest of my life.

This is gonna be a blast!

Lucky? Lucky?

Lucky!

[Bonkers] I still can't believe
he's gone...

gone to that big squad car in the sky.

Ahh, Bonkers, my fine toon,

I'm planning a memorial service

to commemorate the cherished
memory of, uh... uh...

oh, that chubby guy, Pickle, was it?

Piquel, sir.

Don't tell me he's dead, too?

Oh, Bonkers, you really miss him,
don't you?

Lucky was the best.

Lucky had it all! Lucky had everything!

Except, of course, luck.

I was working on the eulogy.
I thought I'll run it by you.

"Officer Pickle was a big man
in more ways than one.

"He wasn't just tall, he was fat, too."

That's so beautiful!

[sobbing]

Yes! That's the reaction
I was looking for.

-He must've been somethin'.
-He must've.

He was a rock, always giving 110%.

[Bonkers]
You never saw Lucky having a bad day.

[Miranda] He sounds wonderful.

[Bonkers] Except Mondays.
He could be a little grumpy then,

but who likes Mondays?

[Miranda] Perfectly understandable.

[Bonkers] And, of course, Wednesdays.

You know, over the hump day you get edgy.

[Miranda] Well, wish I'd known him better.

[Bonkers] Because Fridays weren't great.
He'd be really burnt out from the week.

-[Mirinda] Happens to us all
-Tuesdays, Thursdays-- ooh, crap sh**t.

You just crossed your fingers and
hoped his mood wasn't too foul.

Yes well, he was fortunate to have
a partner like you.

Yes! He was.

Say, is that Pickle's shoe?

It's all I have left of him.

Will you suppose I could have it?

You know, It would be nice
if we had something to put in the ground

Not now, sir. He's a little upset.

Oh-h*, of course!
Perfectly understandable.

Perhaps I could have
just one of the laces?

[sobbing]

I almost had all the parts,
then you came barging in.

It's a wonder
we didn't get more to pieces.

Now I have to get more b*mb stuff!

Thank you very much! As if my life
wasn't hard enough!

I, uh, guess you fellas in the bureau
have plans for every situation, right?

[agent] That's correct. I knew it.

-Even one like this?
-Correct again.

So, uh, what is it?

Can't divulge that information.

Of course not. I knew that.

But say I guessed-- wink wink--

I bet you'd let me know then, huh?

[agent] Affirmative.

Wh-what if we get a message out?
I could write on this can

and kick it out the window. How's that?

Can't say yes and can't say no.

Oh, sure, I get it. You guys.

Wink, wink.

[grunting]

[screaming]

My! My! Look at the cans.

I should save this scrap aluminum
for the w*r effort.

Anything to help my Uncle Sam
and Aunt Mame.

[Bonkers sniffs] You fixed Lucky's
all-time favorite meal... food.

Fall-Apart, when a recipe calls
for a can of peppers,

it doesn't mean a can of peppers.

-It's the cook's day off.
-You have a cook?

No, but if I did,
this would be the day off.

"Hel-pay, ucky-lay." Imported, eh?

Ooh! What? That's classified police code!

Roughly translated, it means,
"Help, Lucky," followed by today's date.

[ka-ching]

Today?

Miranda, that means he's
not completely dead!

-Where'd you get this can?
-Over there.

Hey, there could be more messages!

This one has writing on it.

This one does, too.

-This one.
-This one too.

They all do!

"To whom I'm the in being"-- got it!

"To whom it may concern,

I'm being held prisoner in the..."

In the what? Where's the last can?

Here!

Uh, "I'm being held prisoner in the
refrigerate after opening."

Ooh! That's horrible!

Those fiends are torturing the poor soul!

[teeth chattering]

This is the only one without a message.

We can't find him without the can, can we?

Why don't we try my boss,
Sergeant Grating?

[Miranda] Sir, Officer Piquel
sent Bonkers a message.

You don't say?

From the great beyond?

Did his shoe talk to you?

-Oh, don't be silly.
-It was this can!

[Grating] Out!

And if you want your
budding career to blossom,

steer clear of toons who talk to cans!

We are going to find Lucky,
and if he doesn't like it...

w-well, that's just too bad!

Let's get Fall-Apart to show us
where he found that can.

Let's say, I was walking home,
so I was heading down this street.

Bonkers!

What you... What you doing?
That toon is getting too close!

We've been all over the place,
and we've gotten nowhere.

Why don't you just rest here for a minute?
I'll handle this.

For the last time,
do you know where the cans were?

If you hum a few bars...

If I only knew where Lucky was...

it's as if he was looking down at me,
trying to tell me.

We'll start again,
first thing in the morning.

Will you be all right?

Yeah. Thanks, Miranda, but if you don't
mind, I'd like to be alone for a while

to wallow in misery and self pity.

Poor guy, his whole life is going up in--

Bonkers!

Bonkers, you're okay !

If you consider deep, bottomless,
black depression okay,

then I'm positively marvelous!

Except the very seat Lucky used to sit in.

Boy, if these worn-out springs could talk,

the stories they would tell.

Oh, no!

His shoe! I've lost his shoe!

Here it is, and here's your
chilli pepper can.

Thanks, Miranda.

[sniffling] Look at the way
he put those silly hearts over the eyes.

"I'm in observatory, you lousy, little,
puddin'-headed,

no-good..."

Observatory?

[Frank] I'm taking you two along with me.

I'll drop you off when I'm safely
in international air space.

But, wouldn't that be
in the middle of the ocean?

What, you can't swim?

Freeze! You're under arrest!

It's all over, end of the line!
It's the big house for you!

You've taken the tip of the river.
Help. I need some clichés.

Hold this.

[fighting]

I'll save you!

And next time you pull a stunt like this,
Little Mister,

I'm gonna give you such a pich.

There! I've disarmed the b*mb.
Clever of me, no?

No! It's armed and dangerous!

Give me that thing before you
blow us all to matchsticks.

Bonkers!

You never listen to me.
You take orders from a crook?

-I'll call for backup.
-No, you won't!

Then I will!

But there's no dial tone,
just strange static.

That's the b*mb!
It's set to explode in 90 seconds!

So make it stop!

Help.

-You're asking me, it's your b*mb!
-It can't be stopped, once its started.

-Here, Lucky, you try!
-No, you try !

-I already did!
-I don't want it! You take it!

-[Bonkers] You can have it!
-[Lucky] I don't want it!

-[Mirinda] Don't give it to me!
-[Frank] Do not give it to me!

Will you stop doing that!
I don't want to ever see this thing again!

Well, what do you know?
He finally did what I told him.

[rumbling]

[alarm rings]

[expl*si*n]

M-m-my b*mb. He blew up my b*mb.

-He's mine!
-He's mine!

-Mine!
-No! Mine!

[fighting]

-I got him!
-No! I got him!

[mumbles]

Wonderful job, Bonkers.

You followed police
restraint procedures to a "T"

however, that is the wrong guy!

It is not!

He's a federal agent.

He's a mad b*mber, Lucky!

No. He is my friend.

Obviously, the stress caused him
to identify with his abductor.

-It happens sometimes
-Bonkers, he's right.

Ugh! Breathe on him.

You...win.

[tires screeching]

You? The toon?

Busted Fireball Frank?

No. It was all Miranda... and Lucky,

Mostly Lucky. I mean, her!

But he did just as much. 50-50.
Right in the middle.

[chief] It gives me great pleasure
to formally announce

you're no longer a rookie.
You are now a full-fledged Junior Officer.

After a probationary period, of course,
at no salary increase, so don't ask. Ow!

What happened to those snap-on badges,
I ordered?

And you, too, Officer Wright.
Congratulations. Ow!

Since you and Bonkers did so well,
I officially make you a team.

That is a toon who'll need a partner
now that you're dead.

I'm assigning you both
to Sergeant Grating,

who can--

[gulp]

Ghost!

[crash]

While your tactics are somewhat
unorthodox, you saved my life out there.

Would you like to join the FBI?

FB... I always knew J. Edgar
had his eye on me.

Mr. Hoover is no longer with us.
We do not joke about Mr. Hoover.

No! You misinterpret me.

And we don't contradict superiors.

Never! I mean, always!
Ooh! Gosh! I mean...

You smell great!
Really, wonderful cologne.

Oh look! Dirt on your shoes.
I'll just get that for you.

[Lucky whistling]

I'm awful glad you got your big break.

We both knew a talent like mine
wouldn't go unrecognized forever.

-11 years, yes, but not forever.
-No. I am not going to cry,

just because I'm...

[crying] losing the best friend
I ever had!

[crying]

Oh, come on. We'll keep in touch,
a card every Christmas, promise.

And I'll send you a Christmas card
every day of the year.

And Toots can
go with you to take care of you.

Beep Beep

I don't know if that's necess...

Oh, well. Yeah... okay.

Thanks pal.

Halt there! Halt there!

If Toots takes care of him,
who is gonna take care of Toots?

I better go along, too. 10-4!

This could be getting out of hand.

Could you drop me in Baltimore,
if it's not out of your way?

Actually, it is out of my way.

-How about Guam?
-No.

Then I'll go to Washington.
Always wanted to see the Eiffel tower.

-Good luck, Lucky.
-Thanks, Miranda,

but I think you'll need the luck.

So long, Bonkers.
You'll have to come visit us some time.

You can stay in my room! Bye, Bonkers.

-Bye, Bonkers. I Love you.
-Take care.

Bye.

-Bye-bye. [gulp]
-[sniffling]

I'll tell you what. Why don't you, uh,

keep this badge for me, huh?

I won't be needing it now.
Just one more thing to pack.

Rusty anyway.
Likely to give somebody typhus.

Ouch! Yeah, well.

Guess this is, um... that is to say...

in other words... what I mean is...

I'll see you around, Bonkers.

Goodbye, Lucky.

[engine starts]

Look Bonkers, I just want you to know,
I'm going to do my best to fill his shoes.

Oh, that's sweet.
Hey, no offense, Miranda,

but you just can't,
'cause Lucky had very large shoes.

I understand.

No. I mean big.

The man had huge feet.

He wore custom-made shoes.

I was, of course,
only speaking figuratively.

[Grating] Bobcat!

I want you in my office three seconds ago.

Then again...

[Fall-Apart] Let's play 20 questions!

Be quiet.

[Toots] Beep beep!

You be quiet, too.

[Fall-Apart] Animal, mineral
or dictaphone?

[Broderick] Quit talking
about that stuff! 10-4!

[Lucky] All of you be quiet.

[Bonkers] Okay. Are we there yet?

[theme music playing]
