Awesome / Kindergarten Cop

• One of the first lines from the movie:
  Kimble: Oh, excuse me. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is John Kimble... (cocks gun) ...and I love my car.
  Random thug (immediately backing off): Yo, man, I'm just gonna keep a eye on it for you, all right?!
• Two words: Police School. After Kimble has spent days making a buffoon of himself trying to manage the children, he hits upon an idea - use his own police training to his advantage, starting with one loud-ass whistle. After a day of putting the kids through their paces, the most unruly group of kids you can imagine are marching around school grounds in unison. Not only has he finally earned their respect, it softens Kimble up too - he may talk tough, but from here on in, his fatherly love for the children is obvious.
• Be honest: You flat out cheered when Kimble punched the abusive father right in the gut and reported him to the police.
  Kimble: You hit the kid, I hit you.
  • You probably cheered harder when Kimble stops because there are parents and his own students who are watching him, and he decides to press charges instead, like a responsible teacher would.
  • The Principal is watching this along with the students and other teachers; you might expect her to get confrontational with Kimble, but behind closed doors she goes on to complement his improvised teaching techniques and ask him how it felt hitting the abusive father.
• Kimble's partner, O'Hara, gets one too in the end. When the grandmother has Kimble cornered with O'Hara's own gun, O'Hara just finds a baseball bat and beats her to the ground.
  O'Hara: You're not so tough without your car, are you?
  • Even better, she does this after the grandmother had drove her car into O’Hara, yet she managed to get back up and get her revenge on the old bag.
• When Crisp grabs Dominic during the chaos at the school, and starts to carry him away through the crowds, the red-headed child in Kimble's class points at him and starts yelling 'STRANGER!'. The other kids quickly follow suit, allowing Kimble to see what's going on and take chase. It seems they really did learn something in class!
• Kimble's otherwise docile ferret bites Crisp in the neck when the former has taken Dominic hostage. This allows Dominic to run to safety and for Kimble to shoot the son of a bitch dead.
