Editing Cop Out/Transcript

(''Opening shot: the city skyline during the day.'')

Narrator: The City of Townsville... loves its police force. (shows the Townsville Police Department) A group of hard-working men and women, doing their best to keep Townsville safe.

(A policeman takes one of his old fashion glazed from the box, the scene changes to a side view of a policeman who is wearing sunglasses and has a white mustache. He opens his mouth as he puts his doughnut in front of his face. He bites and chews it very loudly as the camera zooms out to reveal the policeman is very fat. Definitely not an officer who prefers to remain lean and well-exercised to do his job.)

Narrator: Except for this guy.

(Inside the doughnut shop, the same fat policeman points to each doughnut he wishes to purchase with a pleased look on his face, preferring the perks of his job with eating a cop's favorite food over doing his duty to defend Townsville from crime and lawlessness.)

Narrator: Officer Mike Brickowski, the worst cop on the force. (A woman screams as she points at a thief off-camera and two policemen chase after the unseen thief to catch and apprehend him and recover what he took from the woman, then she looks at Brickowski, and glares at him for just standing there and doing nothing but eating his doughnut instead of helping his fellow officers catch the bad guy, thus failing his duty to help the people of Townsville like he is supposed to do.) He makes no effort to fight crime or help the citizens of Townsville. (A boy wants Brickowski to help him to get his cat down from a tree, but Brickowski is still eating and ignoring the boy's pleas for assistance, still being lazy, selfish, and useless.)

(Three men try to lift a turned-over police car, and he is shown cheerfully watching while still holding his doughnut, enjoying their struggling with sadistic pleasure and not even lifting a finger to help his brothers of the badge, once again showing his outright refusal to commit himself to the police motto and duty of "To Protect And Serve" and just enjoying the perks of his job, such as his yummy doughnut.)

Narrator: He'd rather let his fellow officers do all the work. (Each of three scenes depicts him exiting a different doughnut shop at different times of the day while his partner waits in the squad car) He likes things easy. (Now while his partner, Miguel Perez, drives the police car, Brickowski silently moves his mouth, speaking to him as they patrol their beat) Enjoy your ride when it lasts, Officer Brickowski... (He takes a bite of his doughnut and the car passes O.C. Now, back in the car, Brickowski is napping and snoring, while Perez is reading the newspaper at the wheel, both having stopped their cruiser for a break before returning to patrol.) ...'cause you're in for a rude awakening.

(A ring is heard. It is revealed that they had been parked near a bank all along. The ring is the bank's security alarm as it is being robbed at that exact moment, and the two officers are right there, ready to respond instantly.)

Dispatcher: Car 11, come in.

(Perez looks in surprise out the window upon realizing there is a crime in progress and, realizing he and Brickowski are the first officers on scene and responding to the call with being in the right place at the right time, immediately runs toward the bank. He slams up, back first, against the wall with his service pistol drawn and at the ready for whatever he will encounter should he make entry into the building to stop the robber, especially with his partner.)

Chief: Don't "man" me, sit down. (''He gestures to a seat'')

Brickowski: So what's up, Chief?

Chief: You're fired, Brickowski. I want you out of here immediately.

(''Brickowski breaks out into a smile and laughs heartily, thinking it is all a joke and he's not being kicked off the force because of his lazy behavior.'')

'''Brickowski:''' Chief, you crack me up!

(''The Chief then suddenly snaps and loses his cool, slams his fists on the desk, and looms into Brickowski's face furiously. So much that the veins on his neck can be seen to indicate how upset he is with the worst member of his department. This shuts Brickowski up in a heartbeat once he sees how enraged his superior is at him.'')

Chief: This is no joke, Brickowski! You are the worst, most incompetent officer I have ever known! Now hand over your badge.

Brickowski: You want my badge?

Chief: Did I stutter? Now hand it over? (Brickowski turns in his badge) Good, your sunglasses? (Brickowski hands his sunglasses and is about to give his gun but) No no, you can keep that. A little souvenir for you. That donut's looking good though. Oh yeah (Brickowski gives his donut to the Chief) 

Pooh Bear: Let the girls go if you please, Mike.

Ash Ketchum: Mike Brickowski, who do you think you are blaming the girls for no good reason?!

Pikachu: Pikachu!

Tigger: Yeah, brunos, this isn't the girls fault that you got fired!

Misty: Yeah. it's your own fault that you didn't help out your fellow officers!

Rabbit: Not to mention stuffing your face with doughnuts!

Brock: You're the worst cop ever!

(The police officers shout in agreement.)

Ash Ketchum: Let them go, you big donut hole!!! (He jumps and tackles the pathetic excuse for a cop)

Blossom: What do you know? I guess acid can't hurt us after all.

Brickowski: It looks like another story of a good cop gone bad.

Blossom: You're not a good cop gone bad; you're a bad cop gone worse!!

Narrator: (laughs) Bad cop gone worse! Sorry, Officer Brickowski, no donuts in jail! So once again, the day is saved, thanks to the Powerpuff Girls, and the fine upstanding men and women of the Townsville Police Department.
