Lethal Weapon

So...

you can stay if you want, but I have yoga class.

Can't.

Got a big meeting with investors in the a.m.

I'll call you.

Like shooting fish in a barrel.

Am I right, bro?

Central Intelligence. The Rock. DVD.

Action, comedy, romance. Anyone?

I got The Rock. Central Intelligence.

Movies.

DVD. Action, comedy, romance.

Anyone?

Hello, mister.

If you like taking pictures, you got to love movies.

And if you love movies, you got to love The Rock.

I'm not interested.

You don't like The Rock?

That's not what I said. I love The Rock.

People think he's just an action star,

but he does comedy, drama.

He does movies for even kids.

Did you even see Moana?

He has range, man.

Okay. I-I'll buy a couple movies from you

if you just get off my back.

- Deal? - Deal.

Hanni. Come on.

He's buying.

- Rafi, come on. He's buying. - Hey, hey, hey.

I'm just buying some badass action movies.

I'm not causing any trouble.

Sorry. That will never, ever happen again.

All my movies are 100% guaranteed badass.

You come back and tell me these are not badass,

I will give you a full refund, minus restocking fees.

Restocking fees?

All right.

This looks nothing like The Rock.

It's an artistic rendering.

Debatable. Where's my change?

I will have to pay you back somehow.

Maybe with information.

Oh, yeah? What kind of scoops

is an eight-year-old kid gonna give me?

I'm nine. And I know you're not a journalist, American.

Do you, now?

What if I told you the bad people you are watching

know you are here and planted a bomb in your car?

Why are you telling me this?

I told you. I know things.

And I don't want to lose a valued customer.

See you around.

Or not.

...comedy, action and drama.

Dude. He got away?

Saw what he was doing to your car and I was like,

"Not cool, bro."

Not to my best tenant and best friend, Cole.

Nah... It's not a big deal.

Happens all the time.

Dude, I appreciate your Zen.

It's like one of my favorite things about you, but, like...

I'll take care of it, George.

Trust me.

Oh. It's-It's Gus, dude.

I got... a badge.

But, hey, man, that's my other favorite thing about you, dude.

You just power through adversity, Cole.

Did you make coffee?

Oh, hey, Mom.

Nice blouse, hey.

Dad, you know you look good in gray.

Single origin Ethiopian

light roast, anyone?

Thank you.

It's a big day.

Yeah, it is.

You're up before noon.

Call that a national holiday.

So you, you guys remember when I, uh,

when I dropped out of college, right?

- Remember that. - Do we remember that?

- I have nightmares. Yes. - Do you? Me, too.

Oh, yeah. So, you know,

I've been searching for what to do next.

You're going back to college.

- He's going back to college. - No, no. Better.

- Better? - Yeah.

I'm going to Costa Rica to apprentice in the coffee trade.

Yeah, get a little education while I work.

- Honey, Costa Rica. - Yeah.

That's, that's big.

And that's dumb.

- Hon... - I mean, what's there to learn about coffee?

It's black, it tastes like battery acid,

but everybody loves the caffeine.

There, apprenticed.

What?

Wh-why would you...

- Why can't I just... - I'm just giving you the wisdom

of my experience.

That's what parents are for.

To advise you that this is a dumb idea - Honey.

- and that you're not gonna do it. - What your...

- That's what we saved up for. - No, honey.

What your father's saying...

No. What he means is do it his way.

That's what I mean.

If you want to live in the same place your whole life,

that's good for you,

but I'm not making that mistake.

Mistake?

So it's a mistake to pay your bills

and keep a roof over your family's heads.

It's a mistake to build a future.

Look, I didn't even mean it like that.

You know why I didn't go traipsing around the world?

Because I was here raising you.

So that you could have the privilege of talking back at me.

Well, I signed the paperwork.

All right? I'm going.

My mistake.

- I don't make mistakes. - Oh.

- What's that? Coffee? - Here you go.

I don't even want to smell it.

I'm switching to tea.

That was my... Listen.

This is important, okay? The victim...

You see, Scorsese, this is what a man

who makes mistakes looks like.

Morning, Roger, Scorsese.

Wh-wh-wh-what happened?

Huh? The car?

- Yeah. - Nothing.

It's something.

Did you get into an accident on your way here?

No. I found it like that this morning.

A hit and run?

You're police; you can find this guy.

I know who it is; the guy's got his reasons.

The guy's got his reasons.

Can we... Is the murder this way?

Yes. Murtaugh,

the victim is a male in his mid-30s.

He just left a woman's apartment

after picking her up from the bar.

Stabbed in the middle of his throat.

And we found him with a note in his mouth,

that reads...

"I'm a pig who must die."

Correct.

I'm feeling left out.

Ten years ago,

we had a serial killer that was preying on womanizing men.

He killed four in a row.

He got away?

Hell no.

I put that son of a bitch in jail.

He's there now.

Or did you...

Detective Murtaugh?

Oh, and Leo's here for some reason.

Yes, because I represent Dan Harrison,

a man who, years ago,

you wrongfully convicted for four murders

exactly like this one, hmm?

Dan Harrison is guilty.

This is a copycat.

And how are you here?

Because Leo Getz has a police scanner in his apartment,

and by apartment, I mean my car.

Holy Magic Mike,

you must be the new partner.

How do you do? I'm Leo Getz.

I'm part of the team here.

You're not part of the team.

I'm-I'm-I'm a...

a sidekick, at-at least.

You and I should get lunch,

break the ice, get to know each other.

I'm not big on lunches.

This is L.A., nobody says that.

What I meant to say is that I'm not big on

ambulance-chasing lawyers.

But thank you.

And now I have your DNA.

So you know, my friend, I also happen to be

the host of a moderately successful true crime podcast.

Detective Murtaugh,

did you or did you not put

an innocent man behind bars years ago,

leaving a serial killer

to roam the streets of Los Angeles?

Speak right into the thing and answer in, like,

a complete sentence, if you can.

I need a damn coffee.

Rafi? Hold on.

Rafi.

What are you doing here?
