Precinct 99th No POV

Amy, Jake, Charles, Rosa, and Wade were at Jake's desk discussing the best cop movie.

Amy; for the last time, the best cop movies, in order: Training Day, Lethal Weapon, and Fargo. End of discussion.

Jake: wrong. Die Hard is the best cop movie of all time. One cop heroically saving the day while everyone else stands around and watches. It's the story of my life.

Wade: no it ain't.

Charles: I like Turner & Hooch. Tom Hanks, reluctant friendship with a dog. That hits me where I live.

Rosa: no. Robocop. It's got everything I like, gratuitous violence. <stops talking>

Jake: oh, I thought you were listing things.

Rosa: I was. I'm done.

Jake: okay.

Gina: <walks over> let's talk Bad Boys. That's the perfect cop movie. Mr. Smith, lookin' fine. A hot cup of Tea Leoni. Come on.

Wade: Rush Hour. <Icy> Seven. <HotHead> no, it's gotta be 21 Jump Street!

Jake: that's three opinions in one.

Terry: <wheels over> Francois Truffaut's Breathless. <the team looks at him> what? Terry likes foreign films.

Jake: ok, there is a correct answer to this question, though. So gather around for the greatest cop film of all time. Wade you haven't seen this so get close buddy.

The squad gathers around as Wade squatted next to Jake to see him pulling up some old footage.

Jake: please refrain from texting during our presentation.

Jake played some old footage from June 1, 2009.

Hitchcock: <video> excuse me, ma'am.

Jake: all right, so there's Hitchcock. And there's an old hooker.

Hitchcock in the video gets instantly kicked in the crotch and walks off fast.

Jake: there it is!

Hitchcock: come on, guys, that happened four years ago.

Jake: this is the best part. She comes back, takes the wallet and here she goes!

They all groan when the old hooker in the video comes back, takes the wallet, and kicks Hitchcock in his crotch again.

Wade: yikes.

Rosa: Wade, I heard you got almost into an exact situation.

Wade: no I didn't.

Flashback

Hooker: come on, big boy, why don't you take an early break and give a nice break~

The hooker had Wade against a wall as some cops laughed while this happened.

Wade: <blushes> don't just stand there, help me!

Hooker; if you insist~ <goes down>

Wade: wait, wait, wait-

Flashback ends

Wade: those assholes didn't help me at all. <Hot Head> so I put laxative on their coffee.

Rosa: nice.

The next morning

Jake: <walks in> hey, love the sweater. Who you slayin' tonight, lady killer?
