[first lines]
Sgt. Joe Friday : This is the city - Los Angeles, California. I work here; I'm a cop. It was November 4th. It was windy in Los Angeles. We were working the day watch out of Juvenile Division. My partner is Frank Smith; my name's Friday. A steady stream of obscene literature had been finding its way into a half-dozen high schools in the city. We'd gotten a lead on one of the sources of supply - a seventeen year old high school senior. We had to check it out.

Sgt. Joe Friday : Now who are you sellin' this for? Where do you get your supply?
Stephen Banner : All you see is what's in my locker. I ain't sellin'; I don't have any supply. You gotta go far to prove I have.
Sgt. Joe Friday : No, not very far, Steve?
Stephen Banner : What?
Sgt. Joe Friday : From about here to your home.
