Martin Riggs [edit]

  • [While hanging onto the hood of a car] I'd like to see your driver's license and proof of insurance!
  • We're back, we're bad. You're black, I'm mad. Let’s go!
  • I’m a Peeping Tom, Rog, it goes with the badge. And it's fun sometimes, too.
  • Don’t bother to call the police, I'm here already.
  • I’m surprised you haven't heard about me, you know, I got a bad reputation, sometimes I just go nuts, like now. [Crazy giggle]
  • I’m not a cop tonight, Roger, it’s personal. I’m not a cop.
  • No, man. I didn't die on your toilet, I'm not gonna die in your arms.
  • [Injured, being held by Murtaugh, he hears sirens approaching] Give us a kiss before they come.

Roger Murtaugh [edit]

  • Of course I'm black. That’s why I wanna go to South Africa. To join up with my oppressed brothers. To take up the struggle against the tyranny of the racist, fascist, white, minority regime!
  • Free South Africa, you dumb son of a bitch!
  • You're breathing, you're alive, you’re not dead. No, don’t die. You're not dead until I tell I tell you, you got that? You got that, Riggs? You’re not dead until I tell you. You got that, Riggs! You’re not dead until I tell you.
  • They’ve been de-kaffir-nated!

Leo Getz [edit]

  • [Repeated line:] Okay! Okay, okay, okay.
  • I remember, because nine is my lucky number

Dialogue [edit]

[While listening to a chase on the radio]
Tim Cavanaugh: Twenty bucks on Riggs and Murtaugh
Cop #2: Who’s driving?
Captain Ed Murphy: Murtaugh. In his wife’s station wagon.
Cop #2: I'll take that bet!
Tim Cavanaugh: I knew nothing about the wife’s station wagon. Bet’s off!
Captain Ed Murphy: Hey! Shut up!
Roger Murtaugh: Japanese?
Martin Riggs: Well, it’s a Japanese radio.
Roger Murtaugh: Maybe they bought the LAPD too.
Martin Riggs: They own everything else.
[After freeing himself from a straitjacket by dislocating his shoulder, for the amusement of the other cops]
Martin Riggs: Well if it isn't Mrs. Sigmund Fraud.
Dr. Stephanie Woods: My door is always open.
Martin Riggs: Well, I think we should keep this on a professional level, don't you, Doc?
Dr. Stephanie Woods: Why do you do this to yourself Riggs?
Martin Riggs: Well, who else am I supposed to do it to? [Indicates the other cops] None of them'll let me. Besides, I need the money.
[Murtaugh turns off the TV after seeing that Rianne’s commercial is about condoms.]
Roger Murtaugh: [Calmly] Trish, take the kids upstairs.
Carrie Murtaugh: Daddy, we learn about this every day in human devolvement.
Roger Murtaugh: In human what?! Human development what?! Trish!
Carrie Murtaugh: Development, Daddy. Chill out.
Roger Murtaugh: Human development?!
Trish Murtaugh: Come on guys, upstairs. Nick, upstairs. You know how your father is.
[To Rianne's boyfriend, George]
Roger Murtaugh: George.
George: Yes sir.
Roger Murtaugh: Home. Out.
George: But sir-
Roger Murtaugh: George. I have a gun.
George: Yes sir. [He leaves.]
Captain Ed Murphy: I got something special for you boys. A guy by the name of Getz, Leo Getz has been placed in protective custody. And you two guys are gonna babysit him until Washington sends out the feds.
Martin Riggs: How long?
Captain Ed Murphy: Soon as all the red tape is processed. Couple, three days. This guy Getz is gonna testify before a commission of inquiry. Drugs, laundered money, et cetera, et cetera. This is not a shit assignment.
[Riggs starts smoking]
Martin Riggs: Yes, it is.
Captain Ed Murphy: No, it isn’t.
Roger Murtaugh: [coughing due to Rigg's smoke] It is.
Captain Ed Murphy: It isn’t.
Roger Murtaugh: Captain, it’s a shit assignment.
Captain Ed Murphy: Shut up, the both of ya.
[Another cop comes in and hands the Captain a file.]
Captain Ed Murphy: I guaranteed this guy’s safety.
Roger Murtaugh: Why us?
Captain Ed Murphy: Because you two are the most qualified for the job. And, after last night, you could use the break.
Roger Murtaugh: I can handle last night.
Martin Riggs: What are we supposed to do with him?
Captain Ed Murphy: How the hell should I know? Take him to Disneyland.
Martin Riggs: Oh, this stinks. This stinks. This stinks!
Captain Ed Murphy: I don’t give a fuck, Riggs. That’s why I don’t have an ulcer, because I know when to say, "I don’t give a fuck." Now here’s where he’s staying. It’s a nice hotel; all the expenses are being picked up by the Justice Dept, so enjoy yourselves. :[They start to leave] And Riggs, one more thing!
Martin Riggs: [Turning back] What?
Captain Ed Murphy: [Tosses him a small 'no smoking' sign.] You know what that says?
Martin Riggs: Yeah, yeah, same thing as that. [Points to the large 'no smoking' sign next to him on the door, smirking.] But I don’t give a fuck. [Throws the small placard back and walks out.]
Roger Murtaugh: [wafting the smoke away from him]You’re lucky. I have to live with that.
Martin Riggs: Shut up.
Leo Getz: Okay, I get it. Bad cop, good cop.
Roger Murtaugh: Shut up.
Leo Getz: Okay, okay, bad cop, bad cop. I know the routine.
[Murtaugh is on his toilet with a bomb underneath ready to blow]
Roger Murtaugh: I'm gonna die on the toilet.
Martin Riggs: Guys like you don't die on toilets.
Consulate Envoy: What can I do for you today?
Leo Getz: Okay, I have this problem, this very delicate matter. I have a friend of mine, wants to emigrate to South Africa.
Consulate Envoy: Yes, of course. I can certainly help him do that.
Leo Getz: Oh sure. But I want you to talk him out of it.
Consulate Envoy: Talk him out of it?
Leo Getz: Yeah.
Consulate Envoy: Whatever for?
Leo Getz: W-well, you see, this is such a bad time for him to go to South Africa. I mean with all the trouble and everything, okay.
Consulate Envoy: Look, why don’t you ask your friend to come back later in the week. We can sit down-
Leo Getz: No, he’s here. He’s here.
Consulate Envoy: He’s here?
Leo Getz: Yeah, he’s here now.
Consulate Envoy: Where?
Leo Getz: Alphonse! Alphonse?
[Murtaugh comes around the corner. Cheerfully oblivious]
Roger Murtaugh: How you doing?
Consulate Envoy: [Dumbstruck] I think there must be some mistake.
Roger Murtaugh: Say what?
Consulate Envoy: Sir, listen to your friend, here. He knows what he’s talking about. I don’t think you want to go to South Africa.
Roger Murtaugh: Why not?
Consulate Envoy: B-Because you’re black.
Leo Getz: [To Murtaugh] You are. [To Envoy] He is.
Roger Murtaugh: Riggs, we’re not going to the fucking stilt house. We’re under orders!
Martin Riggs: Well then the stilt house is gonna have to come to me. You don’t understand, Rog, they killed them both. They killed them both. They got Rika and my wife.
Martin Riggs: Don’t try and stop me, Rog.
Roger Murtaugh: Yeah, I’ve seen that look in your eyes before.
Martin Riggs: They declared war on the police.
Roger Murtaugh: We don’t have the authority.
Martin Riggs: Cavanaugh, Wyler, Shapiro, … Rika, Vicky. How much fucking authority do you need?
Roger Murtaugh: What’s your signal?
Martin Riggs: You’ll know it when it happens.
Roger Murtaugh: Somehow, I think I will know.
[Rudd shoots Riggs, then holds his ID in front of his face]
Ambassador Arjen 'Aryan' Rudd: Diplomatic immunity!
[Murtaugh shoots him through the ID/head]
Roger Murtaugh: It’s just been revoked!
