Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Frank Serpico:
Captain, I think it's only fair to tell you, I've been to outside agencies, and I'm gonna go to more if I have to.
Capt. Insp. McClain:
What outside agencies? Holy mother of God! Frank, we wash our own laundry around here! You're going to be brought up on charges for this.
Frank Serpico:
[they start to shout on top of each other]
Oh yeah? Yeah, I always thought so, but the reality is, sir, that *we do not wash our own laundry*! It just gets dirtier.
Capt. Insp. McClain:
Oh, you are in trouble, Serpico. You are in trouble!
Frank Serpico:
I don't care if I'm in trouble, I don't care who gets it anymore, including myself. Because if I have to go to outside agencies to get somebody to hear my story...
Capt. Insp. McClain:
You stay away from outside agencies! Do you hear me, Serpico? Stay away from them!
Frank Serpico:
[screaming]
Well, where am I gonna go? Where am I gonna go?
Capt. Insp. McClain:
Just wait until you hear from me! I don't want to talk to you, Frank.
[turns and walks off]
Frank Serpico:
I've been waiting a year and a half for you. Where am I going to go?
Frank Serpico:
[shouting after the Captain]
It's *my life*, you fuck!

That's it, huh?
00:00:06.084 --> 00:00:09.164
I mean,
that's what's really important, isn't it?
00:00:09.833 --> 00:00:11.822
That's what you wanna know.
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:15.239
What outside agencies
I've been to, right?
00:00:16.626 --> 00:00:18.535
- Hello.
- Hello, prick.
00:00:18.792 --> 00:00:20.746
- Who is this?
- Frank.
00:00:21.084 --> 00:00:22.744
Frank, how are you? Where are you?
00:00:23.167 --> 00:00:24.576
I'm ready to go to the times.
00:00:25.376 --> 00:00:28.091
It's a goddamn serious step, frank.
00:00:29.075 --> 00:00:32.041
I don't know if the timing is right.
00:00:34.833 --> 00:00:37.573
Look, I want it to get
on the record, that's all.
00:00:37.075 --> 00:00:40.049
In case something
should happen to me.
00:00:43.075 --> 00:00:46.114
I want it on the record.
00:00:48.875 --> 00:00:51.058
I don't know
if we carry enough weight.
00:00:51.833 --> 00:00:54.413
I don't know if the times
will go out on a limb...
00:00:54.584 --> 00:00:57.448
On the say-so of two flunky cops.
00:01:00.075 --> 00:01:03.049
Suppose an inspector
were to come with us.
00:01:04.792 --> 00:01:07.532
You know,
I got 20 years on the force.
00:01:08.917 --> 00:01:12.001
Just bought this place.
I sighed a 500-year mortgage on it.
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:14.822
Will you turn that thing off
out there.
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:18.033
Okay, come on, everybody to bed.
Come on. Turn that damn thing down.
00:01:18.501 --> 00:01:20.864
Yeah, come on, now.
Come on. Go on upstairs.
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:27.006
This is against department regulations.
You both know that.
00:01:27.209 --> 00:01:30.289
If they wanna throw
the book at me, they can do it.
00:01:31.459 --> 00:01:33.539
If I left the force
00:01:34.792 --> 00:01:37.006
I don't know what I could do.
00:01:42.708 --> 00:01:46.999
Okay, I made my little speech.
I'll back you up 100 percent.
00:01:50.875 --> 00:01:53.705
Times and the news.
I got the money, fellas.
00:01:53.875 --> 00:01:55.001
There you go, there you go,
there you go.
00:01:56.003 --> 00:01:58.993
Newsweek, please.
00:01:59.626 --> 00:02:01.739
Holy sh...
00:02:04.002 --> 00:02:05.577
Oh, Christ.
00:02:05.075 --> 00:02:08.999
You can almost predict
the numbers they're gonna do.
00:02:08.075 --> 00:02:10.001
Delaney's gonna issue
some phony denial.
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:14.992
Somebody from the mayor's office
will say something noble.
00:02:14.209 --> 00:02:18.999
Delaney will change his tune. Finally
the mayor will appoint a commission.
00:02:18.292 --> 00:02:22.006
"Thursday, mayor Lindsay announced
the formation of a special committee...
00:02:22.209 --> 00:02:25.001
To review procedures
for investigating police corruption.”
00:02:25.376 --> 00:02:27.214
How come I'm not
in the first paragraph?
00:02:28.584 --> 00:02:29.999
Unbelievable
00:02:33.833 --> 00:02:38.697
the times' report smells of the
familiar smear tactics of mccarthyism.
00:02:38.875 --> 00:02:41.864
This government must
and will root out corruption...

Summary: Frank Serpico is an idealistic New York City cop who refuses to take bribes, unlike the rest of the force. His actions get Frank shunned by the other officers, and often placed in dangerous situations by his partners. When his superiors ignore Frank's accusations of corruption, he decides to go public with the allegations. Although this causes the Knapp Commission to investigate his claims, Frank has also placed a target on himself.
