The story
Ray Hughes and Danny Costanzo are two police officers working on Chicago's North Side, known for their wisecracking demeanors and unorthodox police methods, which get results in their various cases.
After arresting Snake, one of Gonzales's associates, they convince him to wear a wire in order to get the necessary evidence to put Gonzales away.
Snake is setting the detectives up, however, prompting the detectives to rush in by acting as though Gonzales was preparing to kill him.
