sh*t.

Thought it was a real cop.

Hang on, baby.

SERGEANT: Someone
hasn't returned Young g*ns II.

- OFFICER: Chavez E. Chavez...
- (LAUGHTER)

I was him when we played Young g*ns.

That Lou Diamond. He's Native.

FEMALE OFFICER: He's not Native.

- Yeah, he is.
- No, he's not.

SERGEANT: Lady. Gentlemen. Shut up.

Okay?

Also, uh, a Criterion edition
of Robocop

hasn't been returned to Bronco Video

and Roger Butler's
about to lose his sh*t.

He's always about to lose his sh*t.

(LAUGHTER)

SERGEANT: Keep an eye out, all right?

Also, some shitass has been
tagging all the bus stops

with "Land Back" and dicks and boobs.

- (LAUGHTER)
- It's all those shitasses in the village.

Billy Jack.

It's Willie Jack.

Jackin' off idiots is what they are.

(LAUGHTER)

SEGREANT: Keep an eye out, all right?

Also, a shipment of catfish
has been stolen from Cleo's.

I think it's methheads.

And it seems to happen
every six months.

Big.

Aho.

Why don't you go talk to the zombies
down at the scrapyard?

Well, give it to Chubbs.

I gotta follow up on a Bigfoot
sighting outside of town.

(CHUCKLING)

What?

SERGEANT:
On your way out to the forest,

why don't you stop off
at the scrapyard, okay?

Bigfoot can help you out there.

(LAUGHTER)

FEMALE OFFICER: Big, I got a question.

Do Bigfoot's bocos and hvshwv
just dangle out in the open?

Or do they tuck up inside like a dog's?

(LAUGHTER)

sh*t, you gonna be making
jokes when you see one.

Yep. Keep f*cking around,

you're gonna get slapped
with a Bigfoot hvsh.

- Really?
- Easy, easy.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Also, I told you about
that field of catfish heads.

Probably connected.

SERGEANT: Easy with
the conspiracy theories today.

All right? You think
everything's connected.

Oh, 'cause everything is. sh*t.

Oh, tradition stuff.

CHEMIST: You ever done DMT?

felt like a membrane made

You should try laying on a real woman.

in the Native tongue for "goodbye."

Only "see you later."

So understand me in English:

Adios, Big.

What the f*ck you talking about?

Well, we, um...

we dosed those.

You what?

Dosed? What...

What does that mean?

Huh?

KENNY BOY:
There was a-a rave community.

Some young'uns who like
to party in the woods.

Dog collars and sh*t.

We usually make a mean buck off them,

selling energy drinks
dosed with my brother's own

special blend of psychedelics.
