Pickle and Goose OR my gritty detective procedural

A pair of bank robbers, fresh off a bout of bank robbery, attempt to get away in their getaway van.
The two ski mask wearing fiends, grins of victory spread on their respective scruffy faces - you've seen bank robbers, they never shave the day of - are confident they will get away with their ill gotten gains.
But confidence quickly gives way to horror, as the driver looks ahead!
"What's that on the road?!" The driver asks?
His compatriot shrieks in response "GOOSE!"
The getaway vehicle swerves to avoid the frightening fowl before crashing into an u attended hotdog stand.
The robbers are launched from the vehicle and land as two broken heaps on the pavement.
Because not wearing a seat belt is a crime, and they are criminals.
*Honk*
Back at the precinct the chief of police chews out his loose goose cannon cop.
CHIEF: Thousands of dollars in damages, the mayor is on my ass! Are you trying to send me into early retirement?!
*Honk*
CHIEF: I don't wanna hear it! You're getting a new partner! Maybe they'll rub off on you and you'll get some honest to god police work done, instead of the cowboy antics you've been pulling!
The chief indicates to the seat right beside the goose.
It's a pickle.
Just a pickle.
Sitting on a chair.
Dunno how it got there, but there it is.
The goose seems nonplussed by this. The goose may not even be aware of anything going on around it. Here they sit. The stars of:

It's pickle and Goose,
Pickle and Goose,
Ones on a bun and the other's on the run!
It's pickle and Goose!
*honk*
Pickle and Goose ...
