Almost Cops does not try to be clever or groundbreaking. It just puts two very different guys in the same uniform and lets them stumble into trouble. Ramon takes his job way too seriously and gives out tickets like his life depended on it. Jack, who got kicked down from the position of a detective, clearly does not want to be there. They have nothing in common and no reason to get along. That is exactly why it works.
Almost Cops knows it is using an old formula, and it does not pretend otherwise. It lets these two clash over everything from dog poop fines to real murder cases. Their partnership never feels smooth or polished, but that is what makes it work. They mess up and they argue and they screw things up in ways that feel awkward and real.
You are not watching this for perfect action or big drama. You are watching because somehow these two idiots figure out how to rely on each other. These ten moments show exactly how that happens. They will not change your life, but they will remind you why buddy cop stories still work when they stop trying to impress and just let the chaos play out.
These 10 buddy cop moments from Almost Cops will make you a fan of the duo
1. Their First Patrol Together Sets the Tone

Ramon walks the streets with a notepad and a mission. He stops to ticket a car parked slightly off and explains the violation like it matters. Jack stands by the car and says nothing. He lights a cigarette and shrugs at everything.
The scene does not need jokes to demonstrate how badly they clash. Ramon works by rules, and Jack works by instinct. Their silence expresses more than any line. This awkward patrol sets the rhythm of their partnership. It makes you watch how they move and think. Their distance becomes the film’s starting point and builds from that contrast.
2. Hostage Scene Proves How Different They Are

A man waves a gun inside a convenience store and yells for a helicopter. He also wants a new girlfriend and a nose job. Ramon takes him seriously and starts listing procedures. Jack leans on the patrol car and eats chips.
Ramon treats it like a crisis. Jack sees a bad joke. It works because neither of them breaks character. Their clashing reactions make the whole thing land. The moment adds nothing to the plot but everything to their chemistry. It depicts how differently their minds work and why watching them solve anything together becomes half the fun.
3. Jack Saves Ramon from the Grenade Blast

Ramon walks into the scene without noticing the hand grenade. Jack sees it and throws himself toward Ramon. The explosion sends them flying and knocks out a window behind them. Ramon lies stunned on the floor. Jack groans and rolls over.
No words are spoken, but something clearly changes. Jack’s body moved without thought. He chose to save Ramon. This moment matters because it breaks down the barrier between them. It turns Jack from a guy stuck on patrol into someone Ramon begins to trust. From here on, the partnership begins to feel like something real.
4. Amusement Park Mission Is Pure Chaos

Ramon and Jack enter an abandoned amusement park with a plan. They are undercover as safety inspectors. They wear yellow vests and try to blend in. Within minutes, they lose track of the suspects. Jack chases a bystander by mistake.
Ramon yells into a walkie-talkie that does not work. They trip over power cables and fall into a popcorn stand. The scene plays like slapstick, but you see their teamwork forming. They may fail, but they fail together. That failure highlights how badly they want the same thing, even if they keep stepping on each other’s toes (plans).
5. The Big Fight After Kevin’s Secret Comes Out

Jack tells Ramon the truth about Kevin. He was Kevin’s partner and hid it to protect him. Ramon’s face changes. His words come out fast and hard. He shouts that Jack betrayed him. Jack does not defend himself. He just leaves.
This scene matters because it drops all humor. It gives them a real break that hurts both. Ramon trusted Jack. Jack wanted to do the right thing, but made it worse. That fallout lets the story breathe. Their fight brings real weight to the friendship and makes the later apology carry actual meaning.
6. Jack Assembles the Rescue Team

Ramon is tied up inside a warehouse. Jack bursts into the CSO office and informs the others that he needs help. Moussa volunteers first. Youssef nods and grabs his bike helmet. They all suit up like it matters. Jack leads them.
They ride through alleyways and burst into the warehouse like a budget SWAT team. It is silly, but it illustrates growth. Jack now respects the people he once mocked. He no longer wants to do it alone. This rescue flips their dynamic. Jack becomes the guy who holds the team together and proves he finally cares.
7. Ramon Makes Jack Apologize the Right Way

Back at the office, Ramon crosses his arms and tells Jack to apologize. Jack stares and says he already did. Ramon shakes his head and waits. Jack sighs and mumbles something about being wrong. Ramon waits again. Jack says it properly.
The words are stiff, but they are real. Ramon nods and walks off. That is it. No handshake or hug. Just understanding. This moment matters more than any fight. It proves how far they have come. Jack now knows when to step up. Ramon now knows when to demand respect. They finally meet at the same level.
8. Final Fight on the Tower Roof

Ramon climbs to the top of the tower to confront Guido. They fight with fists and rage. Guido knocks Ramon down and grabs his necklace. It slips from his hand during the fight and falls. Ramon lunges and throws punches.
Guido crashes into a van far below. Ramon stares over the edge. The necklace is gone. The weight of his father and brother falls with it. This scene closes his arc. He gets justice without becoming someone else. The fight ends not with revenge but with Ramon proving that he can hold his ground as he is.
9. Turning Down the Promotion

Daphne praises Ramon and Jack and offers them jobs at CID. They look at each other. Jack shakes his head. Ramon steps forward and says no. They thank her and walk out. The others stare in surprise. The party resumes.
This scene might be quiet, but it changes everything. They are not chasing promotions anymore. They are choosing their space. For Jack, it means peace. For Ramon, it means staying close to the people he wants to help. That refusal is a testament to how much they have grown. They no longer need rank to prove their worth.
10. Celebration Scene Shows They Finally Belong

The city throws a party for the CSOs. There are snacks and music. Ramon and Jack stand together by the wall. Dilan walks over and takes Ramon’s hand. Jack clinks a soda can with Moussa. The team is finally at ease.
Nothing explodes. No one makes a speech. But everything feels finished. They are not outsiders now. They belong to something and they know it. This scene gives the story a full stop. It does not scream success. It just shows two guys who hated each other now smiling without saying a word. That silence expresses everything.
