- Judge Dredd: It's a lie! The evidence has been falsified! It's impossible! I never broke the law, I AM THE LAW!
- Judge Dredd: [sentencing the Block Warlord] Mega City Municiple Code, 213: Willfull destruction of property, that's two years. Code 310: Illegal possession of assault weapons, five years. Code 457: Resisting arrest, TWENTY years!
- [one of the wounded squatters jumps up to shoot Dredd, Hershey quickly shoots him]
- Judge Dredd: Thank you, Hershey. And code 3613... the first degree murder of a Street Judge...
- Block Warlord: Let me guess, life.
- [he goes for his gun, but Dredd shoots him first]
- Judge Dredd: Death. Court's adjourned.
- Judge Dredd: [icily] I should've put you down myself... personally
- Rico: [puzzled]
- [looks to the others]
- Rico: You Know I never under stood that
- [demanding]
- Rico: Why did you judge me? Why did you judge me?
- Judge Dredd: You killed innocent people.
- Rico: [abrupt] A means to an end!
- Judge Dredd: You started a massacre!
- Rico: I caused a revolution!
- Judge Dredd: YOU BETRAYED THE LAW!
- Rico: [mockingly] LAWWWWWW!
- Servo-droid: Eat recycled food. It's good for the environment and okay for you.
- Judge Dredd: Fergie, cover the rear!
- Fergie: But I've never fired a gun in my life!
- Judge Dredd: What the hell kind of criminal are you?
- Fergie: A *nice* criminal!
- Judge Hershey: [as her dead partner is being taken away] Damn it! I was supposed to be watching out for him.
- Judge Dredd: Don't blame yourself, Hershey. He made the mistake, not you.
- Judge Hershey: Wouldn't it feel good to have an emotion once in a while, huh?
- Judge Dredd: Emotions? There ought to be a law against them.
- Judge Dredd: [pulling Fergie, by the mouth, out of the service robot he's been hiding in and slamming him against a wall] Mega City code 7592: Willful sabotage of a public droid. That's 6 months, citizen. Let's see your Unicard.
- Fergie: [nonchantly] Come on, give me a break, Judge, uh,
- [looks at Dredd's badge]
- Fergie: Dredd. *Dredd*?
- [Dredd gives a low growling Mhmm]
- Fergie: God!
- [shrinks back into a structure]
- Judge Hershey: [scanning Fergie's Unicard] Ferguson, Herman. Hacker. Illegal tampering with city droids, computers, cash machines, taxi robots...
- Judge Dredd: And you haven't even been out of jail for 24 hours. He's habitual, Hershey. Automatic 5 year sentence. How do you plead?
- Fergie: [nervously] Not guilty?
- Judge Dredd: [leans in closer] I knew you'd say that.
- Fergie: [stunned] 5 years? No! No! I had no choice! They were killing each other in there!
- Judge Dredd: [dismissive] You could have gone out the window.
- Fergie: [aghast] 40 floors? It would have been suicide!
- Judge Dredd: [bluntly] Maybe, but it's legal.
- [nods to others]
- Judge Dredd: Judges
- [they respond yes sir]
- Judge Dredd: Five Years Aspen Penitentiary...
- [abruptly]
- Judge Dredd: Case closed... Take Him Away
- Fergie: [to Hershey in disbelief] What?
- [gets seized by the other judges]
- Fergie: Don't Close The Case
- [protesting as he squirms]
- Fergie: You're Misjudging Me
- [struggles in vain]
- Fergie: You're *Misjudging* ME
- [being dragged away looks back at Hershey]
- Fergie: You're Not Going To Sleep Tonight
- [Hershey observers him regretfully]
- Brisco: Judge Dredd, take cover!
- Judge Dredd: They're firing 20 milimetre caseless flechette rounds at 300 metres. The effective lethal range is 200 metres. You're safe... so what are you doing down there, Judge Hershey?
- Judge Hershey: Waiting for backup.
- Judge Dredd: It's here.
- Judge Dredd: [Dredd rips out a sparking electrical cable from Mean Machine's mechanical arm] Mega City municipal code 4722: Illegal use of city electricity. How do you plead?
- Mean Machine: GRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
- Judge Dredd: I KNEW YOU'D SAY THAT!
- [Jams the cable into Mean Machine's spine, executing him]
- [first lines]
- Narrator: In the third millennium, the world changed. Climate, nations, all were in upheaval. The Earth transformed into a poisonous, scorched desert, known as "The Cursed Earth". Millions of people crowded into a few Megacities, where roving bands of street savages created violence the justice system could not control. Law, as we know it, collapsed. From the decay rose a new order, a society ruled by a new, elite force. A force with the power to dispense both justice and punishment. They were the police, jury and executioner all in one. They were the Judges.
- Judge Dredd: [to a class of cadets, after shooting at a mannequin wearing the Judges' helmet and body armor] Kevlar 9 helmet and body armor. Yours, when you graduate.
- [he picks up another gun]
- Judge Dredd: Lawgiver 2. 25 round sidearm with mission-variable voice-programmed ammunition. Signal flare.
- Lawgiver: Flare.
- [he shoots a flare at the wall. The cadets flinch from the bright red light]
- Judge Dredd: Yours, *if* you graduate.
- [walks over to a Lawmaster bike]
- Judge Dredd: Mark 4 Lawmaster, improved model. With dual onboard laser cannons, vertical takeoff and landing capability, range 500 kilometres. Men?
- Technician: Yes, sir.
- [they switch the bike on]
- Lawmaster: Active.
- [the bike starts to rise above the ground but then it splutters and sparks]
- Lawmaster: Malfunction. Malfunction. Malfunction.
- [the bike drops back onto the ground as the engine stalls]
- Judge Dredd: Yours, if you can ever get it to work.
- [the cadets laugh. Dredd doesn't]
- Judge Griffin: My fellow Judges, have we forgotten the lessons of history? However quickly these block wars can be contained, it's clear that they're becoming an epidemic. An epidemic that should be dealt with immediately. The only solution is a tougher criminal code.
- Judge Silver: Our situation gets worse every day. 73 citizen riots in 16 different sectors in the last 2 months alone.
- Judge McGruder: Violent crimes rising at 15% every quarter. If we don't increase our resources they will be inadequate in less than three years.
- Judge Esposito: Three years? Our resources are inadequate now!
- Chief Justice Fargo: My fellow council members, as a city we continue to grow, and growth is painful. 65 million people living in an area designed for no more than 20. It's not enough that they rely on us for food, clothes, water, clean air...
- Judge Griffin: Chief Justice, this city is in chaos! For social order we need tighter reigns! Incarceration hasn't worked as a deterrent, I say we expand execution to include lesser crimes!
- Chief Justice Fargo: My fellow judges, I was barely in my teens when I put on this badge. When the time comes for me to take it off, please let me do so knowing that it still stands for freedom and not for oppression.
- Judge Miles: Judge Dredd, we have to reconstitute the Council. We'd like you to consider first position as Chief Justice.
- Judge Dredd: I'm a Street Judge. And I'm very late for work.
- [he walks off]
- [Dredd and Fergie are about to run down an incinerator vent which blasts flames every 30 seconds]
- Judge Dredd: Right, you ready, kid?
- Fergie: No!
- Judge Dredd: Now what's wrong?
- Fergie: What's wrong? Are you kidding? Did wearing that helmet all those years compress your brain? You're going to get me killed!
- Judge Dredd: There's a maniac loose in the city!
- Fergie: What a coincidence, there's one out here too!
- Rico: Why are you here? Have you come for another chat?
- Warden Miller: Just a short one, I'm afraid. Duty calls.
- Rico: Ah, duty. Keeping these parasites here, at the public's expense.
- Warden Miller: Yeah. You especially.
- Rico: I don't cost anything. I'm a ghost. And we're both prisoners here. You're behind your desk and I'm behind this.
- [he indicates the forcefield surrounding his prison cell]
- Rico: What a clever reward from Fargo. I mean, considering the services.
- Warden Miller: When you start killing innocent people, Rico, you went beyond service.
- Rico: The innocent exist only until they inevitably become perpetrators. Guilt and innocence is a matter of timing.
- Fergie: [outside the city walls] Dredd, there's no way in. Are you even listening to me? We can't just knock on the wall and say "Hello, Cursed Earth pizza".
- Judge Dredd: There is a way in. Six years ago, two refugees figured it out. The vent to the city's incinerator, there's a burst twice a minute. That means somebody could run through that tube and have 30 seconds before it flames again.
- Fergie: And these refugees, they made it through, right?
- Judge Dredd: Actually, they were roasted. But the theory's sound. Shall we?
- [he walks away]
- Fergie: Maybe we should consider other theories? Dredd?
- [Dredd is putting some stuff into his locker, Hershey walks up to him, quietly]
- Judge Dredd: [from behind his locker door] I can hear you thinking.
- Judge Hershey: Caught your lecture today. Is that really what you think the cadets need to hear?
- Judge Dredd: What I told them was the truth.
- Judge Hershey: Your truth, maybe. You made it sound like our lives are practically over!
- Judge Dredd: Don't you think parts are, Hershey?
- Judge Hershey: I have a personal life, I have friends.
- Judge Dredd: You're one of the smartest of a new breed, but you've only been on the street a year. You haven't gotten used to the isolation yet.
- Judge Hershey: No. No, I don't think that's right. No one should be alone all the time. I mean, is that really what it's been like for you? Haven't you... haven't you ever had a friend?
- Judge Dredd: Yes. Once.
- Judge Hershey: What happened?
- [Dredd shuts his locker and walks away. Hershey follows him]
- Judge Hershey: Dredd? I want to know, what happened?
- Judge Dredd: I judged him.
- [Geiger gives Rico the package he ordered. The case slides open to reveal a Lawgiver gun. Rico reaches to pick it up]
- Geiger: No, wait a second! Don't touch it.
- Rico: Why not?
- Geiger: Well, that's a Lawgiver. That's programed to only recognise a Judge's hand. You touch that, it'll take your arm off!
- [Rico grabs the gun and points it in Geiger's face. The gun has accepted his grip]
- Rico: Gee, how do you like that? I must be a Judge.
- [he shoots Geiger]
- [Dredd and Fergie escape from the Hall of Justice on a faulty Lawmaster flying motorbike. They plummet hundreds of feet but the malfunctioning bike comes to life just before they're about to hit the ground and they manage to fly away]
- Fergie: Dredd, you may want to wash this seat after we get off the bike.
- [Dredd glares at him in disgust and grumbles EWW]
- Fergie: Sorry.
- Fergie: What are you doing here?
- Judge Dredd: I was convicted of a crime. Wrongly convicted.
- Fergie: [laughs] Really? That's kinda weird! What are the odds? Two wrongly convicted guys sitting right next to each other?
- Judge Dredd: You received the sentence the law required.
- Fergie: Five years, just for saving my own ass? That was a mistake!
- Judge Dredd: The law doesn't make mistakes.
- Fergie: Really? Then how do you explain what happened to you? You can't, can you? Great. Mister
- [mimics Dredd's voice]
- Fergie: "I am the law" can't. So maybe this is some kind of typo. Maybe it's a glitch. Or maybe it's poetic justice!
- Judge Hershey: He might have been telling the truth, you know. Have you ever heard of extenuating circumstances?
- Judge Dredd: I've heard it all, Hershey.
- Judge Hershey: [sarcastically] I knew you'd say that.
- Warden Miller: [after giving Rico his package - a small box] What is it?
- Rico: It's an ancient puzzle that contains the meaning of life.
- Warden Miller: [laughs] So tell me, Rico, what is the meaning of life?
- [Rico converts the box into a gun and points it at the Warden's throat]
- Rico: It ends.
- [he shoots the Warden in the throat]
- Chief Justice Fargo: The blind lady.
- Judge Dredd: Who is she, sir?
- Chief Justice Fargo: Justice before your time. We should never have taken justice out of her hands.
- Judge Dredd: You put order to chaos, sir.
- Chief Justice Fargo: Yes, we solved many problems, but created many more.
- Judge Dredd: The legendary Angel family. Cursed Earth pirates, murderers, scavengers, and of course, scumbags.
- Fergie: Oh, that'll win 'em over.
- Judge Dredd: [to Pa Angel] Did I leave something out, Pa?
- Judge Dredd: [Mean Machine points his robotic arm, which has multiple blades on the end, at Dredd] Does that come with a fork, handsome?
- [Judge Hershey has stopped a man for bumping his hovercar between two other vehicles]
- Judge Hershey: [checking his Unicard on the system] Mr Souza, you have a suspended license. You've got 3 counts of driving under the influence...
- Fuppie: [interrupting] Hey, you'd better listen! I suggest you walk away and bother somebody else!
- [Judge Dredd looms up behind him]
- Fuppie: When I said I have powerful friends, I mean powerful!
- Judge Dredd: Are we having a problem here, Hershey?
- Judge Hershey: Not at all, Dredd, nothing I can't handle. Suspended license, 3 DUI's.
- Fuppie: [smiling nervously] Uh, this is getting boring, hey... So, uh, what's the tab? Come on, how much is this gonna cost me? You name the price.
- Judge Dredd: Hmmmm... Hershey, call Control for an H-wagon.
- Fuppie: What? I don't believe it, you're gonna tow me?
- [Dredd crosses the road, Souza and Hershey follow him]
- Judge Dredd: Towing is for a first offence, this is your fourth violation, barf breath. You're a menace. How do you plead?
- Fuppie: Not guilty.
- Judge Dredd: I knew you'd say that.
- [Dredd pulls out his Lawgiver gun]
- Fuppie: Hey, wait a sec, what are you doing?
- Judge Dredd: Grenade.
- Lawgiver: Grenade.
- Fuppie: NOOOOOO!
- [Dredd aims and fires - the hovercar explodes]
- Judge Dredd: Happy motoring.
- Judge Hershey: Subtle.
- Rico: [points all around him]
- [exclaims]
- Rico: I BETRAYED THIS? Your Councils Experiment... WHICH FAILED... In You! I was your brother, your blood, your friend. Who betrayed who? When are you going to stop being a goddamn slave and grow up?
- [snorts]
- Rico: That's your birthright, that's your family. I'm your family,
- [close to tears]
- Rico: I'm the only family you ever had. Now choose!
- Judge Dredd: The best thing you can do is kill me.
- Rico: Why?
- Judge Dredd: Because it's your only chance... brother.
- [looks close to breaking down but instead becomes enraged]
- Ilsa: He looks a lot like you.
- Rico: He is a lot like me.
- Judge Dredd: I am nothing like you.
- Rico: The only difference between us, Joseph, is you destroyed your life to embrace the law. And l destroyed the law to embrace life.
- Squatter 2: That's Judge Dredd, man!
- Block Warlord: Hey, you wanna be afraid of somebody, be afraid of ME!
- Pa Angel: [introducing his third son, a hideously disfigured man with cybernetic body parts] And this here is Mean. We had to make some alterations when he was a child. Well, the Cursed Earth's a tough place on young folks.
- [turns the dial on Mean's metal skull]
- Pa Angel: I now have him set on '1'. I don't suggest you make him angry.
- Fergie: Hallelujah, brother!
- Pa Angel: Wait a minute. Can it be? Can it be that from the city of the fallen we have one of the faithful?
- Fergie: Amen, brother! Praise the Lord! I'm a believer!
- Judge Dredd: Fergie, don't do it!
- Pa Angel: It sounds like we have a believer in the gallery. Cut him down.
- [Fergie's arms are released from the ropes that have been holding him above the ground]
- Judge Dredd: Fergie, you're making a big mistake.
- Fergie: Well, Dredd, maybe the law doesn't make mistakes, but I'm free and you're toast!
- Judge Dredd: Actually, you're toast. I forgot to mention it. Your new friends, they're cannibals.
- Pa Angel: Fresh meat. Prepare the supplicant for sacrifice.
- Fergie: No, wait. You can't eat me! I've got eczema! I've got warts! I've had gonorrhoea! Eat Dredd, he works out!
- Rico: You left the DNA in there for over 30 years, sooner or later somebody's gonna clean out the fridge.
- [a ceremony is held as Chief Justice Fargo is taking "the long walk" out of Mega City One and into the Cursed Earth]
- Female Cadet: Let his name be recorded in every place of honor. Let him take the law he served so well to those who have it not. Let him be written in our hearts and our memories forever.
- Pa Angel: [his son has just shot down a prison transport aircraft] By a blast of God they perish, and by a breath of His nostrils are they consumed. Hallelujah!
- Judge Griffin: [holding up the Mega City One Book of Law, like a bible, while passing a sentence] As it is written.
- Judge Griffin: [has just sentenced Judge Dredd to life imprisonment] Let the betrayal of the Law be taken from our court. May his armor be taken from him, and all of his garb of justice. Let him be stricken from our hearts and our memories, forever.
- Fergie: We're a team. Granted, you do most of the work, but we're still a team.
- Judge Dredd: I'll handle it, kid.
- Fergie: I bring you luck.
- Judge Dredd: Luck?
- Judge Hershey: You are still alive, Dredd.
- Judge Dredd: Hmm.
