Dirty Cop • Captain's Meltdown

May 18, 2026

Act 1: The Captain's Losing It
CAPTAIN MIKE

(banging fist on desk, red-faced) Forty fucking kilos and a kidnapped girl in the trunk?! That stop was a godamned miracle! And you two clowns almost turned it into a lawsuit buffet with that weak-ass probable cause dance!

Papers fly everywhere. The bullpen goes dead silent. Officers pretend to type harder.
CAPTAIN MIKE

Internal is already sniffing around! One wrong move and we're all on the evening news looking like a complete circus with badges!

Door opens. Kali King strolls in all cool-like, sipping coffee, shades still on.
KALI KING

Cap, cap, easy. We got the bad guys, saved the girl, and Niner got his Kong. That's a W in my book. Swoop had a nose for the shit. Like he smelled his ex-wife's new boyfriend's cologne or something. The man was all over it. Relax, Mike. We good.

CAPTAIN MIKE

(calm, but still fuming) King... you always come in here with that cool brother smooth shit. — Fine. But next time…

Front door of the police station bursts open. Detective Tony storms in, wild-eyed, waving a case file like it's on fire.
TONY

Y'all see this shit?

CAPTAIN MIKE

(shaken) Awe, hell.

Act 2: Tony's Wild Story
TONY

(to the entire office) Y'all ain't gonna believe this! I just left the warehouse on 5th—whole damn thing was entirely rigged! Cartel dudes had a submarine in the river! Submarine! With torpedoes! They were gonna flood the whole precinct!

Entire office stops. Officers slowly turn. One guy drops his donut.
CRIS

(high pitched) Whaaaat?

TONY

Swear to God! I saw the periscope! And the driver had on a Mexican sombrero, but it was all lit up with the LEDs! They was playing that narco-corrido shit out the hatch! — Man, I swear on my momma. (yells across the office) This connects to the pop-trunk bust, Cap! It's all one big motherfuckin underwater trafficking ring!

KALI KING

(brow raised) A submarine. In the river. With LEDs? Tony… you been huffing the evidence again?

Captain Mike's face goes volcanic.
CAPTAIN MIKE

My office. Now! The rest of you—back to work before I lose what’s left of my gotdam mind!

The entire office starts typing furiously.
Act 3: The Whole Asscheweth
Mike slams his office door. Blinds rattle. Muffled yelling starts immediately.
CAPTAIN MIKE

(muffled but loud) A SUBMARINE?! Are you fucking kidding me, Tony?! Every… time… you open your mouth, it's like a clown car crashed into some cooky conspiracy theory!

KALI KING

You're a fucking detective, Tony.

CAPTAIN MIKE

That's right. You're not some telenovela writer! You're on the job!

KALI KING

Clock the fuck in, lock the fuck in.

CAPTAIN MIKE

Kali… that's enough.

KALI KING

My bad, cap.

CAPTAIN MIKE

(clears throat) If you come bouncing in this mother fucking office one more time like you're Tigger and I'm Whinnie the gatdam Pooh, I swear to all that is mighty in this world, I will have your ass served on a platter. Is that clear?

TONY

Yes, sir.

Door cracks open slightly. Tammy walks in mid-rant carrying a stack of reports, smirking. She drops them on Mike's desk.
TAMMY

Updated logs, Captain. And the lab results on the fentanyl.

Tony stands there looking pitiful, shoulders slumped, tie crooked. Tammy gives him the smuggest side-eyed smile as she leaves.
TAMMY

(quiet, sweet) Have a great day, Tony.

CAPTAIN MIKE

(still raging) And another thing!

Act 4: Behind the Glass
Greg and Cris Swoop leaning against the wall outside the office, cracking up as the yelling echoes through the bullpen.
CRIS SWOOP

Submarine with LEDs, bruh. Tony's over here writing his fanfic again.

GREG

(laughing) I wouldn't be surprised if Tony's asshole gets a complete workout from every time Mike's voice makes him flinch and pucker.

An officer walks by, hand over his face trying to hide laughter. Mike suddenly yanks the blinds open.
CAPTAIN MIKE

(pointing) I saw that! King… remind me to give that one the same treatment I’m giving Tony right now.

KALI KING

(calmly) Got it, Cap. On the list.

Blinds slam shut. Yelling resumes louder. Tammy passes by Greg and Cris.
CRIS SWOOP

(still snickering) Tammy, you getting a load of this?

TAMMY

(smirking) Oh, I'm gettin all of that.

GREG

We're taking bets that it's gonna be so bad that he can't walk afterwards.

TAMMY

(pulls out cash) What are the odds?

Greg and Cris look at each other and laugh.
