Does anyone know if the scene with collapsing cops is on YouTube or somewhere else?

I only caught a part of the entire scene once. Apparently Quincy was in a hurry (maybe a date) but Astin said he had to perform a demonstration for some police officers and then he could go. So he proceeded to exaggerate everything in order to gross them all out and/or scare them off so he could leave. Part of the results are shown in the show's opening credits.

The collapsing cops scene is from the very first Quincy episode, Go Fight City Hall...to the Death.

Thank you very much. I just saw it on YouTube. He was trying to get on a case. I can't believe I thought he was running off to a date.

It is in the 90-minute version of Go Fight City Hall To the Death which is why some may not remember seeing it in an episode, as there is also a shortened 60-minute version that is commonly shown on TV instead.

Many of the open credit vignettes are from the Mystery Movie episodes.
