The Relic (1997)

[Lt. D'Agosta and Det. Hollingsworth show up to the crime scene in the bathroom]

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : This is not good.

Martini : Never thought there'd be a worse way to die than a shark attack. Having my head ripped off never occurred to me.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Where is his head?

Det. Hollingsworth : It's over there by the sink.

Margo Green : [Dr. Green walks into the crime scene mistakenly] Lieutenant D'Agosta...

[screaming at the dead body and blood across the room]

Margo Green : Oh, my God! Oh!

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Get her out of here!

Bradley : Lieutenant! Over here.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : [Det. Hollingsworth attempts to walk over the dead body] No! Don't step over it

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : [Det. Hollingsworth brings his leg back to walk around the body] It's bad luck. Jesus Christ.

Bradley : There's a half-burnt joint on the floor.

[chuckling]

Bradley : Seems our boy was having a little pot in the potty.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Pot's a misdemeanor. Decapitation seems a bit severe.

[the forensics team member continues to chuckle]

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : I want the blood on the walls. Get a ballistic analysis. Pinpoint source, speed, force - Full splatter pattern.

[Lt. Vincent D'Agosta arrives to the abandoned ship and talks with Det. Hollingsworth]

Det. Hollingsworth : Good morning, Lieutenant. I've just been to the front of the boat. I got something to show you.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : It's a ship, Hollingsworth, not a boat, and the pointy end is the bow.

Det. Hollingsworth : Custody hearing went badly?

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : I don't want to talk about it.

Det. Hollingsworth : She got Jerry?

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : What part of I don't want to talk about it is unclear?

Det. Hollingsworth : [Lt. D'Agosta walks off and Hollingsworth whispers to himself with the other police officer] Shit!

Police Officer : His ex-wife got custody of his son?

Det. Hollingsworth : His dog.

Police Officer : His dog?

Det. Hollingsworth : Yeah. He really loves that dog.

[Lt. D'Agosta and his search team use dogs to search the underground tunnels to the museum]

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : We've gone off the map, Evans.

Evans : This is the old coal tunnel.

Bradley : Lieutenant!

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Yeah?

Bradley : That scent seems to be getting stronger.

Det. Hollingsworth : What the hell is this?

Evans : Electric trams hauled coal right into the basement from the old barges. It's how Chicago stayed warm.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : How far does it go?

Evans : This one goes all the way to Lake Michigan. At least that's what they say. No one really comes down here.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : So let me ask you something, could somebody get off a ship docked at the lake and go through these tunnels all the way to the museum and not be seen?

Evans : Sure.

Bradley : Hey, we're moving now guys.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Let's go!

[the group begins to run as the dogs snarl them forward, when they arrive to a tighter more pitch black tunnel]

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : What in God's name is that smell?

Bradley : I don't like this.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Okay, we can do this.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : [over the radio] Is anybody there?

Tom Parkinson : Wootton?

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : No. D'Agosta. Put the mayor on.

[Parkinson hesitates]

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Put him on!

Tom Parkinson : [hands him the radio] For you, Your Honor.

Mayor Robert Owen : This is Mayor Owen.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Mayor Owen, this is Lieutenant D'Agosta.

Mayor Robert Owen : Lieutenant Degusto...

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : D'Agosta, sir. Vincent. Badge number 14173. We spoke once before. Do you remember?

Mayor Robert Owen : I want you to consider very carefully-...

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : With all due respect, sir, you can fire me on Monday, but right now I want you to shut your fucking mouth and listen. I'm putting Sergeant Hollingsworth in charge, and you're going to do exactly what he tells you to do.

Mayor Robert Owen : Or what, Lieutenant?

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Or none of you are gonna live to see election day. Hollingsworth. Hollingsworth? Are you there?

Det. Hollingsworth : Excuse me, Your Honor. I'm here, Lieutenant.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Take the fire stairs back down to the subbasement and head west into the service area. Go through the passageway to the old coal line. You'll come up across the street from the museum. Now, you go slow. You go quiet. Stick together! You understand?

Det. Hollingsworth : I got it.

[Lt. D'Agosta and Det. Hollingsworth search the abandoned cargo ship for its missing crew]

Det. Hollingsworth : This was obviously a drug hit. Whatever they came for, they found. Now, I figure they came aboard at night, they killed everyone, and threw the bodies overboard.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : You figured that out all by yourself?

Det. Hollingsworth : [Det. Hollingsworth screams when he finds a hissing cat with his flashlight] Oh, shit!

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : What! What?

Det. Hollingsworth : A cat. Nearly gave me a heart attack.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Was it a black cat?

Det. Hollingsworth : No.

[Lt. D'Agosta quietly nods his head]

[Lt. D'Agosta waits for his search teams to tell him some good news when Det. Hollingsworth tells him about the heads on the Santos Morales cargo ship]

Det. Hollingsworth : Good morning, Lieutenant. How are you today?

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : What have you got?

Det. Hollingsworth : Right. Um, well, we checked on that, uh, hypo... uh...

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Hypothalamus.

Det. Hollingsworth : Right. Anyway, what heads we were able to salvage from the Santos Morales were pretty decomposed, but they all were missing their hypothalamus... es.

[awkward pause]

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : Why, thank you, Hollingsworth.

[Det. Hollingsworth tries to gather the remaining trapped museum guests to get out through the underground tunnels]

Tom Parkinson : Excuse me, but I don't care what Lieutenant D - Whatever the hell his name is says! I'm staying!

Mr. Blaisedale : I'm afraid my wife and I will be staying as well.

Dr. Ann Cuthbert : Mr. Blaisedale, we must stay together.

Mr. Blaisedale : My wife won't physically be able to go down stairs or through tunnels. It's best if we stay behind.

Det. Hollingsworth : One of us can carry her!

Mrs. Blaisedale : It's out of the question. We'll be fine here.

Dr. Greg Lee : It's okay, officer. I'll stay behind and protect Mr. and Mrs. Blaisedale.

Bailey : Give me a break.

Tom Parkinson : We're not going. What are you going to do, shoot us?

Det. Hollingsworth : All right. All right.

Det. Hollingsworth : [Det. Hollingsworth looks back to officers McNally and Bailey] One of you stays here with them. Now who's it going to be?

Bailey : [McNally and Bailey both in unison] I'll stay!

McNally : [McNally and Bailey look to each other] I'll stay!

Det. Hollingsworth : McNally, you're staying!

Bailey : Hey, you got plenty of ammo?

McNally : I'm loaded.

Det. Hollingsworth : Okay. Let's move!

Tom Parkinson : Dr. Cuthbert. Dr. Cuthbert! I'm sorry, but I don't think you should do this.

Dr. Ann Cuthbert : Bullshit, Tom. You're fired.

Det. Hollingsworth : I'll lead with the shotgun. Bailey, you stay at the back. The rest are single file. It's going to be dark. We go slow, we go quiet, and we stick together!

[the group begins to follow Det. Hollingsworth into a dark stairwell]

Det. Hollingsworth : All right. Stay close and watch your step.

Bailey : Let's keep it going. Keep it going.

Dr. Greg Lee : [Dr. Lee talks to the Blaisedales who are still in shock by the situation] Can I get you a drink?

Det. Hollingsworth : Morning, Lieutenant. Just been to the front of the boat. I got something to show you.

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : It's a ship, Hollingsworth, not a boat. And the pointy end, is the bow.

Det. Hollingsworth : Custody hearing went badly?

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : I don't want to talk about it.

Det. Hollingsworth : She got Jerry?

Lt. Vincent D'Agosta : What part of "I don't want to talk about it" is unclear?

[begins walking to the bow]

Det. Hollingsworth : Shit.
