:16:00
He's totally cut off
from the outside world.
:16:03
How long does it last?
:16:06
Forever.
:16:08
Those psycho cops are on
a slash-and-burn
:16:11
to find the tape
and cover their tracks.
:16:13
Since Tick is a duplicator,
:16:15
they wanna find out if copies were
made or who wired Iris.
:16:19
It's not even homicide,
since he's technically alive.
:16:22
Yeah. That's right.
He's technically alive.
:16:25
It seems sophisticated.
These are not subtle guys.
:16:28
- There's more to this.
- What do you mean?
:16:32
All I'm saying is, you don't know how
high up the food chain this goes.
:16:38
- I heard stuff.
- What stuff?
:16:40
I heard stuff, smoke, rumours.
I've heard stuff.
:16:45
I've heard stuff
about a death squad.
:16:48
They're a group of guys, cops,
loyal to the hard-line school.
:16:52
Guys who've had too many years
of City Hall, review boards,
:16:56
and the goddam media
pissing down their necks,
:16:59
suspending cops, tying their hands,
:17:01
while these same people
are squealing, "Save us! Save us!
:17:05
"Do something, you morons.
Crime is out of control."
:17:13
- Bullshit. It's conspiracy paranoia.
- It's not about if you're paranoid.
:17:18
It's about whether
you're paranoid enough.
:17:20
Christ.
:17:22
Exactly. Get religion.
:17:24
I love you like my own blood, Lenny,
:17:26
but don't walk near me in public.
:17:28
The only card we got is the tape.
Get it to the media.
:17:32
Right.
:17:34
You run that on the news, by midnight
you got the biggest riot ever.
:17:38
They'll see the smoke from Canada.
:17:40
What are you saying?
Pretend it didn't happen?
:17:42
- I didn't say that.
- It happened.
:17:45
The LAPD executed
an important black man.
:17:47
Who are you to try to bury it?
:17:50
..trying to rake the LAPD
over a cheese grater?
:17:54
You want blood running waist-deep
in the storm drains, go do it.
:17:57
200,000 gangbangers will burn this
city to the fucking ground, Mace.
