Voila! Finally, the Paparazzi
script is here for all you quotes spouting fans of the movie starring Cole Hauser, Robin
Tunney, and Tom Sizemore. This script is a transcript that was painstakingly
transcribed using the screenplay and/or viewings of Paparazzi. I know, I know, I still need to get the cast names in there and I'll be eternally
tweaking it, so if you have any corrections, feel free to
drop me a line. You won't
hurt my feelings. Honest.
[ Man ] We're on the red carpet tonightfor the premiere of Adrenaline Force.
This is Bo Laramie's
breakout role...
in what is certain to become
a very popular action franchise.
Take a look at the crowdbehind me.They have been completely ignited bythe anticipation of Laramie's arrival.
Oh, my God,
this is huge, babe.
It's a long way from
pounding nails in buildings.
- Do you know all these people?
- No, son. I don't know any of'em.
- I think they think they know you, Dad.
- Yeah, I think you're right.
Okay, honey, I want you to go
out there and have a good time.
- Okay. I love you.
- I'm proud of you. You've worked hard.

Bo. Your first action film.How are you feeling tonight?
Aw, man, this is
all new to me, you know.
I'm just-- really just
trying to enjoy it. You know?
And, uh, I'm excited.
This is-- It's unreal.
- Your fans are waiting. Congratulations.
- Thank you very much.
Bo! Bo! Bo!
Hey, Bo, can you sign this?
- [ Bo ] Right here?
- Thanks, man.
[ Woman Screams ]
- Over here.!
- Shake his hand.! Shake his hand.![ Bo Narrating ]Whoa. What a night.Unreal.[ Chuckles ] Six months ago, I couldn't getarrested with a fresh corpse and a smoking gun.And today I'm the, uh, "it'"guy?But you can't buy into that.That's an illusion.That's not real.You know, there areprimitive tribes that believe...you lose a piece of your soulevery time your picture's taken.After last night,it's a wonder I have any left.
- Bo Laramie.
- Hold that thought.
- It is!
- Oh, my God!
- [ Women Giggling ]
- That's him!
That never happenedin high school. Never.That's an illusion.It's not real.Life is good.I guess I'm just gonnakeep doin'what I'm doin;..until somebody figures outI really don't know what I'm doin;Yeah,you know, that makes sense.That sounds like a plan.dd[ Rock ]
- Hey, buddy.
- Hey, Dad.
- What's up?
- Mom says you run so you won't get fat.
- Is that true?
- Is that what she said? Really?
Well, you know what?
Your mother's right again.
That's it. Everything we have
fits in half a cabinet.
I love this house.
- You sure it's ours?
- It's ours, beautiful.
- It's ours.
- How was your run?
Good enough that the fat man and his family
can go get some muffins on the way to soccer.
- Muffins!
- Did you give our secret away?
- Yeah.
- [ Shouting, Laughing ] No!
Okay, I'm gonna put you
in the cabinet.
- Hey, Bo.
- How are you, Sierra? What's goin' on?
- Hi, Zach.
- Hi, Sierra.
- [ Zach ] Hi, Rusty.
- The usual?
You know what, give us three of the blueberry
and two coffees, will you please?
Sure. I saw this huge billboardof you going up on Sunset.
- [ Exhales ]
- I know. It's wild, isn't it?
- Excuse me. You're Bo Laramie, aren't you?
- Mm-hmm.
- [ Laughing ]
- [ Bo ] What's your name?
- [ Laughing ]
- [ Bo ] What's your name?
- Oh, I'm Emily, from Ohio.
- Nice to meet you, Emily from Ohio.
Thanks. Could I get
your autograph?
Yeah, absolutely.
Where would you like me to sign?
Right across your crotch
would be great.
Hey, Zach,
let's go, buddy.
- Where'd you get this?
- They just put 'em out at the grocery store.
- Thank you!
- Yeah.
Hold this, will you, bud?
-Just keep the change. Thank you, Sierra.
- Thanks.
- [ Bo ] See ya.
- [ Zach ] Bye, Sierra.
- We're naked. Can they do this?
- They did, Abby.
How dare they put Zach
on the cover of a magazine?
There are so many creeps out there.
I-- He's a minor. Is this legal?
I'm gonna call Gill,
and I'm gonna find out. All right?
God, Bo.
My principal, the teachers.
My kids' parents.
What are they gonna think?
I'm sorry you're beingput through this, Abby.
Why is Daddy in a magazine with
a black thing covering his pee-pee?
- You ready to play some soccer today, buddy?
- Yeah!
Here you go!
[ Chuckling ]
- How's it going, buddy?
- Great.
- Morning, guys.
- Good morning.
- Hey, listen. Thanks for those tickets.
- Oh, yeah, yeah. Absolutely.
You got it, bro. All right, now.
Only one thing matters, right?
I know, Dad.
Have fun.
Okay.
[ Shutter Clicking ]
[ Shutter Continues Clicking ]
I'll be right back, sweetie.
[ Shutter Clicking ]
Hey.
How you doin', Bo?
All right.
What are you doin'?
I'm about to watch
a soccer game.
How's Zach doin' this morning?
He's a good-lookin' boy.
He's got a birthday comin' up,
doesn't he?
You want to take a picture of me?
I'm right here, okay?
Take a few shots. 'Cause you had
no right taking pictures of my son.
That's a point of law,
Mr. Laramie.
I have every right to take pictures
of whoever I want in a public park.
- Yes, I do.
- Not without my consent you don't, all right?
- Now, come on.
- Look. Things have changed.
You're somebody now.
You better get used to this.
- Oh, yeah? I'm somebody now?
- Yes, you are. You're somebody now.
- Now your game's about to start.
- It's a security risk.
I'm asking you nicely,
and I'm saying please.
Don't take pictures
of my son.
Okay. Okay.
- You got it, Bo.
- Thank you. I appreciate it.
I understand.
Sure thing, famous guy.
[ Crowd Cheering, Shouting ]
[ Whistles ]
- Good job, buddy.
- You were awesome.
- Thanks, Mom.
- I'm proud of you, son. You did a great job, buddy.
You did a great job.
- [ Shutter Clicking ]
- Son of a bitch.
Take him to the car.
Bo!
What did I tell you? I said don't take
another goddamn picture of my family.
- You understand that? Not one more.
- Yeah? Kid takes a nice picture.
Won't bring half as much as the ones I have
of Abby changing Zach's clothes.
The steamy ones... by the pool.
- Oh, yeah?
- [ Groans ]
- [ Bo ] Huh?
- [ Woman ] Is that Bo?
Oh, are you gonna pay.
- [ Shutters Clicking ]
- Smile, Bo.
- [ Chuckling ]
- [ Photographer ] You get that?
- Ooh, in living color, chief.
- Cops are on their way.
- Bo!
- Hey, Bo.
Hey, big shot.!
Enjoy what's left of your weekend.
Let's go make some money.
- Oh, yeah? huh?
- [ Groaning ]
Wow. We're told Laramie was released
late Saturday afternoon...
ordered to attend
anger-management classes...
as part of a plea agreement.His people tell us the assault chargeswill likely be dropped...
in lieu of a settlement
that could easily cost...
the rising star
half a million dollars.
The victim, -year-old Rex Harper...
is also demanding a public apology.
Our very own Giuliana
caught up with Bo...
on the set ofhis new action movie.
- Giuliana?
- Thanks, Patrick.
- And thank you for agreeing to sit down with me.
- Thanks for having me.
Bo,just so we understand
what happened...
you became angry
at some photographers...
after they were taking pictures of you
at a weekend soccer game?
Mr. Harper was
taking pictures of my son.
I politely asked him to stop,
and he didn't.
So you hit him?
Well, there's a little bitmore to it than that, but,yeah.[ Bo On TV] This guy is nothingbut a low-class parasite.
- Your parasite's right here.
- He's never gonna get an apology from me.And ifhe knows what's good for him,he'll stay away from me and my family.
- [ Scoffs ] Can you believe this prick?
- [ Giuliana ] Strong words.
Yeah.
Yeah. I gotta go.
Laramie, I'm gonna destroy your life
and eat your soul...
and I can't wait to do it.
Well, here's one for ya.You're lucky.Real lucky.
Ajudge orders me to spend
$ an hour on therapy...
that I don't need,
and that makes me lucky?
You're lucky
you're not in jail.
You're not
in Montana anymore, Bo.
Anger management is not about
upgrading from a to a -gauge.
- [ Chuckles ]
- The point is...
you're carrying belief systems
from a previous life...
that don't fit
your new reality.
Some of your old values
may not be valuable anymore.
Not here, not now.
Well, I disagree.
You don't mess
with a man's family.
And I'm not gonna change
who I am...
to suit my environment
or your expectations.
I got to where I am
by doing things my own way.
Oh, I think the judge
would agree with you.
[ Chuckles ]
That's not what I meant, but--
No, I know that.
Look, your, uh--
your time here--
it's gonna give you the tools to better
deal with situations like last Saturday's.
And I'm considerably cheaper
than Mr. Harper. [ Chuckles ]
- All right. Is that it?
- For now, yes.
And, uh, if you have a problem,
I want you to call me.
All right.
Thank you.
I'll see you next week.
Thanks, Phil.
Clear.
[ Man ]Must be cold as hell this time of year.
- Huh?
- Switzerland.
- What do you mean?
- It says here--
This came out of the U.K., so it must
be true-- ""Unnamed sources say...
""Laramie chartered
a private jet to Switzerland.
""While there the young star reportedly
underwent a penile enhancement...
surprising his wife with it
on her birthday.''
- Nice, huh?
- You give it a name? ""Big Bo''? ""The Albatross''?
- Something sexy for the bedroom, to keep it fun.
- I'm going to.
- Bo, can we get you for a lineup in here?
- Yeah, yeah. Yeah, no problem.
- It's nice, how they caught me.
- Yeah.
- Y-You want to show it to me?
- Can't keep anything a secret these days.
You got the work done,
you might as well let people see it.
If it's big like that,
w-why would you want to hide it?
Be nicer to him. Things have changed
around here. Take a look.
[ Whistling ]Oye.
Amigos.
You got the stuff, huh?
Sí.
Thank you.
Muchas gracias, amigos. Merci.
Sure, man.
- Pinche americano, está loco.
- Este buey está zafado.
- dd[ Rock ]
- [ Chattering ]
Nice legs.
What time do they open?
Does that usually work
where you come from?
- Yeah, a couple of times.
- Leave!
Now!
[ Scoffs ]
- Can you believe that guy?
- [ Woman ] I thought he was kind of cute.
Loser.
- And you're considering this?
- All I'm saying is they called.
Those schmucks over at Web Pics are turning
this friggin' business into a trout farm.
Celebrities getting approval over
paparazzi's photos? That's bullshit!
The public wants raw and real,
and that's what we give them.
Let me tell you something,
my friends.
We're the last of the real hunters.
[ Chuckling ]
I'll drink to that.
Like those shots you got of Lopez.
Now, they were the shit.
- And you are a dog.
- Damn straight. I made bank on 'em too.
I spent three nights
hidin' in that tree.
Ants crawlin' all over my ass.
I picked her off with a thousand mil
from yards out.
It was beautiful.
Yeah. Too bad
it wasn't really Lopez.
Nobody knows that.
Let me tell you something, Kevin.
Don't start sweatin'the small stuff, okay?
Or you'll get soft, end up like the rest of
those pussies working at the agencies.
Hey, I'm here, ain't I?
Hanging with you and Rex,
who is, by the way, still the king.
Hundred and five thousand dollars
for that shot of Clooney in the woods.
Ohh-hoo.
Yeah, Clooney's been
a real gold mine.
- How'd it go, huh?
- She's a lesbian.
- Really?
- [ Laughing ]
I'm gonna get
a second opinion.
God, you get
a lot of lesbians.
- Let's go.
- Excuse me.
- Buy you another round?
- Yeah.
Hey, Dan-- Dana.
- I guess you can afford it.
- What's that supposed to mean?
You think I wouldn't
recognize the guy...
that siphoned half a million dollars
out of Bo Laramie?
Hey, I saw you
get your ass kicked on TV.
[ Chuckles ] Look,
I'm a photojournalist.
- I was doing my job.
- Mm-hmm.
I was assaulted,
and justice was served.
With the exception
of Laramie's apology to me.
I like reading the tabloids.
I think they're fun.
- I think you're drunk.
- [ Giggles ] I think you're cute.
Your pictures
hurt people.
Do they?
The irony--
- Marcy.
- Marcy...
is everyone wants to have steak,
but nobody wants to date the butcher.
My job is to provide
a window of reality for society.
It's up to them whether they want
to look through it or not.
Come on.
Have you ever bought a tabloid?
- Guilty as charged.
- Don't feel guilty. Guilty's bad.
I mean, everyone wants
to have a--
[ Whistling ]
little peek, huh?
See?
It's human nature.
Look, there's a--
there's a premiere tonight...
and an after party
I'm covering.
Come with me, as my guest...
Come with me, as my guest...
and, um, see things
from an entirely different perspective--
mine.
Hey, do a shot with me
and then tell me your story.
[ Whispering ]
I'm a good listener.
- Really?
- Uh-huh.
Listen to this--
No.
What do you say, Marcy?
You want to have a little adventure?
- dd[ Piano ]
- [ Applauding ]
- It's beautiful. You should come and see it.
- Yeah?
So, when--
Saturday, can you come? Or--
- [ Man ] Saturday would be great.
- Hey, Bo. How's it going, mate?
- Good to see you again. Remember me?
- Good to see you.
London press junket.
You were sitting next to me in the pub.
There was that beautiful bird
on your lap and--
- Oh, sorry, man. Is that your wife?
- Get out of here.
- Sorry.
- Get out of here.
- What the hell was that?
- Some jackass.
Hey. She bite?
- There's no way the little missus ignores that.
- Great. Let's roll.
Come on, let's go!
- Road trip.
- Wait! Aren't we going in?
You want to tell me
what's bothering you, honey?
I just think it's interesting,
that's all.
- You were in London last spring.
- Right.
My girlfriends at home
get jealous...
if somebody winks at their husband
at the company Christmas party.
Half the civilized world
wants my husband.
How do you think
that makes me feel?
You know what that guy said tonight
is bullshit, right?
- Yeah, I know.
- Okay.
- I guess it's all just new to me, you know?
- [ Chuckling ]It's new to me too, honey.And I'm--
You know, every day I'm learning.
[ Car Engine Rewing ]
- [ Man ] Abby!
-[ Abby Gasps ]
- [ Horn Honks ]
- Bo! Look at me! Look at me! Look at me!
- Look at me.!
- Hey, Bo! Big shot!
- Look at me!
- I can't see a thing.
Bo.! Bo.!
Bo, slow down!
[ Tires Screeching ]
- Daddy!
- It's all right, son. It's okay.
Son of a bitch!
Takin' the front!
[ Rex ]Okay, Leonard. Box him in.
- Hold on!
- [ Tires Screeching ]
[ Tires Screeching ]
[ Panting ]
- [ Gasps ]
-[ Rex ] Len.! Come on. Let's go.
Come on. Come on.
[ Man ]Hello, sweetie.
Yeah, there's been a terrible accident
on, uh, th and Flower.
We need an ambulance.
Oh, yeah.
[ Shutters Continue Clicking ]Hey, Marcy.Hey, honey.
Everything's gonna be fine, okay?
Come on.
Everything's fine. There's an ambulance
on the way already.
They're not hurt that bad.
We'll go back on my boat and have a drink.
- Okay? I'll be right back.
- All right.
- Okay? Okay?
- Okay.
[ Rex ]Let's go. Clear out. We're finished here.
Go! Go! Go! Come on!
Go!
Hi.
[ Clears Throat ]
How is she?
She's in recovery.
I had to remove her spleen.
The next few weeks will be very difficult, Bo.
She'll be in a lot of pain.
We'll manage that with medication,
watch her very carefully.
Now, let's talk about
your little guy here.
He's stable.
His vitals are good.
But comas are
a tricky thing, Bo.
All we can do is wait.
Okay.
- Can we be left alone?
- Absolutely.
Thank you, Doctor.
- [ Car Horn Honks ]
- [ Zach ] Daddy.![ Woman Moaning ]
- You taped me?
- Mm-hmm.
The wine-- You mu--
You must have put something in it--
Obviously it made youquite amorous.
It's a shame, Marcy,
you don't remember it.
Still going to the police to tell them who
caused Laramie's accident? Think again!
Not only will I attach thatto every porno site on the Internet...
I will make sure it finds its way to
your father's desk at the State Department.
You wouldn't--
You wouldn't do that.
You don't see my face on that screen.
Do you, Marcy?
Now go-- go to the police! See if I'm bluffing!
Get out of my goddamn house!
Get out of here.
Hey there, little guy.
I'm gonna come back
and see you every day, okay?
It's okay, honey.
He can hear you, sweetie. All right?
- Okay.
- [ Knocking ]
One second, honey.
I'm gonna go out and talk to
the detective. I'll be right back.
Honey, wake up and you canhave whatever you want.
- Hi, Bo.
- How are you, Detective?
I tracked down those paparazzi guys you
told me about. Brought 'em in one at a time.
- They all came up with the same story.
- Oh, yeah? What story's that?
Well, they never deny
following you.
They say they drove up
on the accident...
called and never left
until help arrived.
Detective, that's bullshit.
You hear me?
Come on, man.
Give me a break, will ya?
I'm just tellin' you what I got.
Until I find someone who saw
somethin' different, that's all I have.
What about the, uh, other driver?
He died late last night.
He never regained consciousness.
I'm sorry, Bo. But listen, if there's
a witness out there, I'm gonna find him.
Believe me.
I'm all over this one, Bo.
I appreciate it.
- [ Shutters Clicking ]
- [ Man ] The victim died, Bo.
- What now?
- [ Chattering ]
Did you mean to kill him, Bo?
Nice driving.
- Stellar Agency. Please hold.
- That's for pickup, Sara.
[ Man ] Bo, taking these paparazzi to courtis only gonna cause more headlines.
Let it go. We've got bigger
problems to deal with.
The studio says we get back to work or they
will be forced to shut down the picture.
Five weeks, Bo. They're losing
a tremendous amount of money.
The bond company is now threatening to
go after you. And your production company.
Technically, you weren't hurt.
- What'd you say?
- Uh, Bo, you're upset.
You don't know shit.
I'm sorry.
So, what do you want us to do, Bo?
[ Groaning ]
[ Groans ]
[ Yells ]
And that's a cut. Excellent!
- [ Cheering, Clapping ]
- Well done.
Whoo. Way to do it.
Way to do it.
- You all right?
- Yeah.
All right.
That's a wrap, everybody.
We'll pick it up heretomorrow morning.
What you got,Jay?
Just a bunch of crap.
Oh, man.
""Laramie's wife on drugs.''
""Star too busy to notice.''
Mr. Laramie?
I'm Reggie, Aegis Security.
- Hey, Reggie.
- The studio sent me to keep an eye on things.
I'll be on set for the rest of the show.
Well, I could use you.
- Hey, Bo. No soccer with Zach this mor--
- Hey.
- Oh, my God.
- No, that's okay.
- Oh, no, no, no. I'm so sorry.
- Sierra.
- I can't believe I just said that.
- Sierra, look at me. Sierra?
Zach will be fine, okay?
- Okay.
- All right?
[ Shutter Clicking ]
Goddamn it.
Hey!
Hey!
What are you gonna do, hit me too?
Man.
[ Engine Starting, Tires Screeching ]
[ Chuckles ]
Yeah. That's bullshit, man!
[ Groans ]
- [ Phone Rings ]
- Yeah, Beverly Hills.
Let me have the number for
a Dr.Jennifer Kelley, please.
- Whoa!
- [ Shouts ]
Hey!
- Help me.!
- I'm comin', man. Hold on!
You got to help me. Please!
Laramie! Oh, God.
Help me! Hurry!
- [ Fabric Tearing ]
- [ Groaning ]
Hurry!
- I'm here.
- [ Shouts ]
- Sit up.
- Help me. Reach. Reach! Reach! Reach!
- Give me your hand.
- Hurry up. [ Groans ]
- [ Groaning Continues ]
- Give me your hand.
What are you trying to do,
kill me?
- Shut up and give me your goddamn hand!
- Damn! Oh, my God!
[ Shouting ]
Help me.! Please.!
Hold on, man.
- Hurry!
- [ Grunting ]
Oh, God! You-- You think we were up your
ass before? I'm gonna own you now, slick.
- What'd you say?
-Just pull me up!
Pull me up.
[ Groans ]
Come on. Pull me up. Hurry!
[ Groaning ]
Pull me up! Now! Now!
[ Screaming ]
[ Thud ]
I'm startin' to feel much more
in control of my anger.
Well, that's quite a leap in progress.
Especially considering your recent tragedy.
Yeah.
Well, I can't let the fact that
four paparazzis nearly killed my family...
affect my behavior, now, can I?
What do you mean by that, Bo?
Well, you asked me to work
on something, and, uh, I did.
Well, surely you must have
some feelings about what happened.
I feel cheated.
I'm angry.
Blessed.
All at the same time.
- [ Sighs ]
- What's this?
Ajournal.
I want you to start recording specific events
that prompt your anger...
and how you dealt with themin the moment.
Doing this will help you
put a face on your problems.
My problems already
have faces, Dr. Kelley.
Well, then you're moving
in the right direction.
Let this journal become
a sanctuary for you, Bo.
My clients are having
great success with it.
Really?
[ Elevator Dings ]
This shit happens way too often.
This kid never even hit the brakes.
- This guy ain't no kid. He's close to .
- They call 'em Rolex riders.
They hang out in Beverly Hills,
wear expensive leathers.
Same guy cuts all their hair.
Pity. He was cute.
Hey, fellas.
Detective Burton, S.I.S.
- You boys mind if I sniff around?
- Knock yourself out, Detective.
Hey, why's Special Investigations...
sending a D- down
to a traffic accident?
Well, I heard your victim's name
on the radio.
He was part of a case
that I've been working on.
It's probably nothing.
I just thought I'd look around.
Here you go, sweetie.
- Thank you.
- Sure.
- Anything else?
- Mm-mmm.
I'm fine.
- Okay.
- [ Phone Ringing ]
One second.
All right?
[ Phone Continues Ringing ][ Phone:Line Ringing ]
- [ Bo ] Hello.
- Oh, hi, Bo. It's Detective Burton.
- Hey, Detective.
- I hope I'm not bothering you.
No, no, no.
We just got back from the hospital.
- Any change?
- No, no. No change.
But thanks for asking.
So, what's up?
Well, you remember that guy
Kevin Rosner?
He was killed earlier today
in a motorcycle accident.
The-- The name
sounds familiar. Wh--
He was one of the photographers
that was involved in your accident.
Oh.
Well, that's too bad, isn't it?
I just thought you'd like to know.
Yeah, well, I appreciate you calling.
Okay.
[ Phone Clicks, Beeps ]
Bo!
[ Groans ]
[ Sighs ]
All right.
Okay.
[ Phone Rings ]
Chrissy!
Hey, baby.
Hey. What do you got?
Just like I expected. Cops refused
to release Kevin's personal effects.
- Then what are we doin'--
- Would you let me finish? I said I expected it.
So I slapped 'em with a bogus power
of attorney. They didn't have any choice.
Ready for the good news?
Cheryl.
Do you mind, love?
Check this out.
[ Man ]Kevin.!
Even in death,
they can't shut him up.
Hey, Cheryl. Call Richard.
Tell him to hold the cover.
[ Cheryl ] Hello, Debra.Can you get me through to Richard?We got something here.We need to speak with him now.
Bo?
- Bo! Howdy.
- Hey, Detective.
- How are you?
- Good. How you doin'?
Okay. Good to see you.
Yeah, things are good.
- You want a cup of coffee?
- I'd love one. Thanks.
- Let's take a walk. I'll show you around.
- Okay.
Listen, the other day after I hung up with you
I did some digging around.
We're dealing with
real scumbags here, Bo.
This guy-- Leonard Clark?
He used to be an attorney.
He got himself disbarred
for distribution of narcotics.
Is that right?
What do you think
the son of a bitch does?
He turns around and sues the police
department for illegal search and seizure.
Cost the city a million bucks
just to make it go away.
He's still on probation for
possession of illegal firearms.
Really.
And this other guy-- Harper?
The guy you slapped around?
He slimed his way out of
an attempted rape charge.
Guess who the attorney was.
- Leonard Clark?
- Yeah.
And by the way, you're not
the first deep pockets he got into.
- This actor, Andy Baldwin?
- Alec?
Yeah. One of
those Baldwin guys.
Anyway, he slaps Harper around.
Harper takes him to the cleaners...
and then Harper moves into
a boat in the marina.
Now, listen, Bo...
until I get this thing straightened out--
I know that you actors have people
and places you wanna keep confidential.
Right.
If I were you, I would be very careful
about what I said on my cell phone.
- Really. Why's that?
- Because for a couple hundred dollars...
you can go to
your local radio guy...
and you can drop in
on anybody at any time.
- Bo, we're ready for you on set.
- Okay.
Listen, Detective, thanks for coming by.
I appreciate it.
I'll speak to you soon.
Okay? Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm scared for Zach. I--
Part of me just wants to take him
back to Montana where he can feel secure.
I don't thinkhe's gonna get that here.

- Hey.
- That little girl outside, she said it was okay--
- No, no, of course.
- How's it going?
- Oh, good.
Geez, look at this place.
It's amazing.
My kids will not believe this.
- You got kids, huh?
- Yeah.
- Really? How many kids you got?
- Six girls.

- I kept trying for the boy, but--

Can you believe this guy?
He pulls a gun
on half of our department.
- Well, the guy's a bit of a jerk. Come on.
- Hey.
- Sorry to interrupt, Bo.
- No, it's all right.
Okay, here you go, Detective. This is a copy
of the paperwork we gave to the A.T.F.
Well, thank you, Charlie. Thank you
very much. I'll stop by on my way out.
All right.
Oh, yeah, we traced the gun here.
Charlie reported it missing.
You know Leonard Clark
was here that day, right?
I heard that.
Bo...
I've now got two
dead paparazzi...
that were involved
in your accident.
I wish I could tell you more
about these clowns. It's--
I don't know, it just takes
a certain kind of person...
that would do something like this.
Complete and utter distortion
of the truth.
Welcome to my world, Detective.
I'll tell you, Bo...
I don't know what I would do
if anyone ever hurt one of my family.
I'm running up against it
on this one, Bo.
What do you think?
I think you're dealing with a random
accident and a suicide. That's what I think.
Well, as it turns out...
Rosner's accident
might not be that random.
The investigators
are still looking into it.
And now...
I've got this gun.

and I hate to ask.
Would you sign a picture
for my kids?
- Of course.

So, what's the plan? I know
you got something up your sleeve.
The idea of going in there,
Wendell...
was to protect ourselves.
If we were worried Laramie was coming
after us before, we have guaranteed it now.
Why don't we just call the cops?
And tell them...
we broke into his house...
you attacked his wife...
and that we would like
some protection?
You're a moron, Wendell.
You're an absolute moron!
What did you expect me to do?
The bitch was all over me.
Go home!
Check your monitor.
See if Laramie's found the cameras.
I gotta think this through.
Go home.

What is this?
Impound found
some video equipment...
in the back of Leonard's car.
Seems he was wearing a miniature camera
when he came to the set.
Why are we watching this?
Oh,just be patient.
Best part is the end.
[ Burton ]Okay, now...
watch this very closely.
[ Burton ]There.
It's a jacket.
And there was something
about that jacket...
that was bothering me.
And then it hit me.
The boys at the crime labprepared this for me.
Now, you'll notice
that in the first shot...
the lapels are facing away from us.
In the second shot...
the lapels are facing towards us.
And?
I was wondering how the jacket
removed itself from its hook...
and turned itself around.
You see, the button-cam is all one shot--
it's unedited, uninterrupted.
And Leonard left his car
and came back only once.
You know what I think?
I think someone on that set...
planted the gun.
