Dick Tracy (film)/Awesome


  • The first of Tracy's action scenes involving him rescuing the Kid from Steve The Tramp. Not a second after Steve smacks the Kid for trying to eat some of his food (Which is implied he promised to share with him for doing his petty crimes for him.), Tracy comes in. Despite Steve being taller and more muscular than Tracy, he's not able to land one hit on him, while Tracy beats the hell out of him shaking his shack in the process. By the time Tracy is done with him, the shack collapses as if it took a beating from him too. All while sporting one-liners that would make Chester Gould proud.

 Dick Tracy: Hey tough guy, you wanna try that on someone your own size? Maybe we should step outside. Ok Tough guy now do you want to give the kid a piece of chicken?

  • The Kid rescuing Tracy when he's tied up in a house rigged to blow and becoming an Honorary Detective as a result.
  • The Kid gets another one, when The Blank has Tracy and Big Boy at gunpoint. Although Tracy was right and that The Blank being Breathless Mahoney was hesitant in shooting him. The Kid took no chances and tackles The Blank by the legs knocking the criminal down. If you listen carefully you can hear the Kid shout "DROP THAT GUN!!" showing he takes his honorary detective credentials seriously as well as being very protective of Tracy. It's no wonder he named himself Dick Tracy Junior.
  • Tracy rejects Big Boy's attempted bribe, hurling the bills back into the gangster's face.

Dick Tracy: And that you are guilty of attempting to bribe an officer of the law!
[Tracy throws the bills back in Big Boy's face; The Kid, watching from the window, makes a "yes!" motion with his hand.]

  • Tracy knocks down a dozen men with a single punch.
  • Tracy coolly executes Flattop as a massive explosion erupts behind him.
  • Tracy up and owning the hobo that The Kid was living with for abusing him, all the way sporting great one-liners.
