Nat Harris : Frankly Captain, it's not the year's hottest story, and we ran it once.
Capt. Ralph Lee : I'll run it twice, Nat. I owe you a bigger one.
Nat Harris : How come the LAPD is so anxious to publicize this capture of a one-armed transient who broke up a crummy bar? Come on, how come?
Capt. Ralph Lee : Because we're just a bunch of egomaniacs.
[Nat pauses]
Nat Harris : All right. You'll tell me some time.
[Captain Lee returns to his office, where waiting for him is Lieutenant Philip Gerard]
Lt. Philip Gerard : Will he do it?
Capt. Ralph Lee : I think so. He owes me some favors.
Lt. Philip Gerard : Of course the wire services won't give this the kind of national play the first story got.
Capt. Ralph Lee : All right, let's give it some juice. Call a press conference, reveal how you saw the routine arrest report on Fred Johnson, your dramatic flight out of Stafford.
[Gerard shakes his head]
Capt. Ralph Lee : Phil, I'm kidding. Where's your sense of humor?
Lt. Philip Gerard : [softly] I don't know. I've lost a lot of things these last four years. Starting with a prisoner the state told me to guard.
