| Always Gets His Man | comment |
This is a cop's cop. He is incorruptible, competent, and feared by evildoers. If he is not Da Chief it is likely because either he is too young, or his path is blocked by Obstructive Bureaucrats who fear him for obvious reasons. He is often a By-the-Book Cop, though some versions have a bit of Cowboy Cop in them. May be a Sympathetic Inspector Antagonist. If he is an Inspector Javert, he will be portrayed sympathetically as a Worthy Opponent and he is only on the opposite side by an unfortunate error in the system or else because the protagonist is a Villain Protagonist. Often, because Elites Are More Glamorous, this kind of Cop belongs to a famous law enforcement organization: effectively the constabulary equivalent of a Badass Army. He may also be Smith of the Yard. Very often, he's a Determinator who is Lawful Good— with a strong accent on lawful. Generally a fair cop, though if the protagonist is operating outside the law, he'll pursue him as relentlessly as anyone else. You very much do not want to do something to make him follow you. This type is more common in the Cop Show than the Police Procedural, as the former presents an idealized and actionized version of police work, while the latter more often depicts flawed heroes because of its focus on the system as a whole. Not to be confused with Super Cop, which is a cop with superpowers (though the tropes can obviously overlap). The Trope Namer is the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, one of those "constabulary Badass Army" type organizations, thanks to the famous motto: "The Mountie always gets his man!" (It's not really their motto—that's "Maintain The Right"—but it's gotten established in pop culture that way.) |

Inspector Ishida in Usagi Yojimbo is a police detective in a large city whose government was corrupted by at least two villains. Ishida, however, is a steadfastly honest officer with a deep commitment to the cause of justice, regardless of who the criminals and their victims are, and sometimes even seeing justice done if there is no legal way of achieving it. | |

Kojak of... Kojak is an idealized cop: feared in the underworld, and zealous in weeding out corruption. The only reason he hasn't been promoted to Chief is because of insubordination (and a desk jockey isn't as exciting to watch). In the TV movies, he is rewarded with his own Major Case squad. | |

Looney Tunes examples: Big Man From The North (1932) has Bosko going after his man. Fresh Hare (1942) has Mountie Elmer Fudd going after Bugs Bunny for a number of crimes he's committed (as opposed to hunting him for game as is the norm). Snow Man's Land (1939) has a Pinto Colvig-voiced derp of a Mountie going after a bullying bruiser. |

Discworld: Sam Vimes, serving as the anchor through which Pratchett explores law and order in his typical fashion, wanders between a straight-laced version of this trope and a deconstruction depending on the book. After his ascension to Commander of the Watch, he acquires a reputation for being this trope across the Disc. Combined with his reputation for honesty, this means that when a politically-sensitive crime is committed, tensions between leaders can be held at bay if they know Vimes is on the case, as they accept that not only will he catch someone, he'll catch the right people responsible. | |

In EVE Online, Concord, the space police, will punish attacks on innocent players by immediately appearing to destroy your ship, having first locked it down to prevent you moving, shooting, or even being able to target anything. In the past, it could occasionally be possible to escape from them by setting up some very unusual situations that allowed you to escape to low-security space. CCP, the developer, responded to this by updating the rules to say that escaping from Concord is officially considered an exploit no matter how you manage it, and your ship will be removed anyway. Concord always get their man, even if they have to work through the metagame to manage it. | |

In the Commonwealth Saga, Paula Myo fits this trope to a T. Genetically engineered to be an incorruptible super-cop, she has been working for the Serious Crimes Directorate for centuries, and in all that time has only failed to solve one case. Which she is still pursuing, after a century and a half. When circumstances force her to decide between arresting the Well-Intentioned Extremist perpetrator and saving the human race from extinction, she suffers a near-fatal nervous breakdown. | |

Sterling on Leverage is a rare morally ambiguous version of this role that is only out for himself. While he is against the heroic thief main characters they are clearly doing it to help people, whereas he works for an insurance company. He is made somewhat more heroic when he joins Interpol but he still serves himself over others. The conflict between him and Nate comes down to To Be Lawful or Good with Sterling choosing lawful with Nate choosing good. | |

In Pokémon Sun and Moon and, by extension, Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Nanu is the sheriff on Alola's Ula'Ula Island and is by far the most skilled cop in the entire region. Team Skull hasn't run amok over Alola like the other regions' villanous teams, and that's because Nanu placed his police station right by Team Skull's hideout and has been holding them off, all by himself, the whole time Team Skull has existed. That being said, the "getting" part he doesn't care much about. He's Brilliant, but Lazy, not showing much interest in arresting them and more on simply corraling them if they get loose.note That being said, it can also be interpreted that Nanu has turned Team Skull's own hideout into their prison. | |

Joe Swanson in Family Guy has always gotten his man. Always. One episode actually centered around him losing his first criminal ever, but of course he catches him by the end of the episode. | |

Tuvok in Star Trek: Voyager, as the ship's security officer, occasionally conducts or assists in investigations those times that someone commits a crime aboard ship, or one of his crewmates gets falsely accused of a crime by aliens. In one episode he even works out that the perpetrator of a series of crimes is himself being mind controlled and having the memories wiped afterwards and promptly relieves himself of duty and informs the rest of the command staff so they can place him under arrest while they figure out who's actually responsible. | |

Babylon 5: Security Chief Michael Garibaldi, formerly of Mars. His past isn't that important, and he prefers not to talk about it, anyway. The Mars colony is considered to be the most dangerous place in the Earth Alliance—doubtless his instincts as a detective were honed on Mars before he was reassigned to B5. (He swore never to return to that planet after it nearly killed him multiple times. Naturally, he ends up returning multiple times in the later seasons.) | |

Samuel Gerard (Tommy Lee Jones) in The Fugitive and U.S. Marshals. A modern day version of Inspector Javert from Les Misérables, he will not allow a criminal to escape if it is in his power to stop them, and will not rest in his pursuit of a fugitive until he has captured them. | |
