290. We're keeping the gravediggers too busy,

291. and that's a damn shame.

293. And I guess the police, they need us too.

294. You put more than two black men together and look who shows up?

295. Hey, but you know what?

297. because we commit the crimes.

298. I did myself.

299. I slung rock,

373. Do the math.

374. We're here just enjoying a cookout.

375. Bullshit. It's a gang council.

377. violates your parole.

378. Probation ended four months ago.

380. Well, I hear you haven't exactly retired.

397. Stashed 35 grand in a locker.

398. The Venezas are 22,000 in debt and they couldn't make the rent.

399. To get the ransom for their boy, they'd do whatever it took.

411. Miguel, would you mind? Interrogation 1.

412. His buddies can wait down here.

413. So, uh, what's Antwon got to do with this?

414. His old gang runs the Pavo Real.

415. I didn't get the Street Crime Detail I put in for.

416. Didn't know you're looking to transfer.

417. Why'd you write a four-page letter sabotaging it?

418. I got off the phone with someone who owes me a favor over there.

419. Buried me to the Selection Committee.

420. I apprised them of your qualifications.

421. You stabbed me in the back.

422. Didn't want me to find about it until you ran out?

423. Won't pass you to become someone else's problem.

424. Who's been running your precious Garage Sting?

425. That load of crap you sold me for a goddamn nine minor busts?

426. Yeah, I saw you tap dancing on that one for a few weeks.

427. While you were out on the street strutting your stuff,

428. I made Ronnie run through every bust.

429. And it didn't take long. So, what is this? Payback?

430. Consider it the bill due.

431. You ran the Strike Team into the ground.

432. To get you under control,

433. I parked you in front of videotapes

434. and you even managed to botch that.

435. You are a joke.

436. A joke? Come on.

437. Get off me! Hey, come on. Hey.

438. Get off me! Ungh!

439. You really thought after everything,

440. I wouldn't get the last word?

441. One happy family, huh?

442. Oh, yeah. You hit the jackpot.

443. You expect me to buy you hung up your colors to preach the peace?

444. I gotta claim O.G.

445. That's what keeps me real with the little homeys.

446. I play my strengths.

447. Well, don't play me.

448. Dealing, pimping, running numbers.

449. Why is everybody whispering this flows up to you?

450. People talk, man.

451. That don't make it the truth.

452. I was planning on warning you about Mackey.

453. It took me a while to learn how to get him under control.

454. Didn't look like anyone was in control downstairs.

455. There's some things you need to know about Vic.

456. Yeah, I read your letter.

457. If it's true, you had plenty of opportunities to get rid of him.

458. But in three years, you haven't.

459. Why not? bullshit artist.

460. It is if you're asking me...

461. Is he too effective?

462. kid is a waste of time.

463. Someone's got the kid. You can tell us who.

464. Or should I take a closer look into how you plan on financing

465. all these new banks and restaurants?

466. Didn't you hear what that cop lady said?

467. I sent her partner to his grave

468. trying to dig shit up on me.

469. Take your shot.

470. Maybe 13 years in Lompoc straightened him out.

471. Maybe he really does wanna save Farmington one banger at a time.

472. Lady speaks the truth.

473. Yeah, I know Rich Nelson and his task force

474. had a rough time nailing you.

475. But they did,

476. for a pled-down trafficking charge.

477. Not for that crack house shootout on Olympic.

478. You remember, three dead?

479. Couldn't get you for that knife in the cop's leg either.

480. Nelson came after me nine times.

481. And finally trumped up that charge.

482. Took 13 years of my life.

483. If whoever took that kid turns out to be a One-Niner,

484. you'll do more.

485. Make us come after you,

486. we'll get you.

487. Respect.

488. The drowned son was tight with Chalindo Gopez, 17.

489. Did nine months in one of our juvie camps for robbery.

490. No kidnapping.

491. Where is he? We lost him two weeks ago.

492. So he could be involved?

493. I can talk to his mom, see if she knows where he's at.

494. I'm happy to pick her up for you.

495. Thanks, but we better handle this ourselves.

496. So, what are you guys thinking?

497. Maybe the family sold the boy for sex.

498. No shit? Why?

499. Because that's how Dutch thinks.

500. No. Because that's how the world is.

501. Uh, how's the Youth Authority treating you?

502. It's pretty cool. Lots of kids.

503. We'll follow up on this. Thanks.

504. Yeah, okay.

505. Later.

506. Hello?

507. Oh, I'm sorry. I was— I was looking for—

515. I read your personnel package. I'm sorry to have lost you.

516. Yeah, well, you know, I needed a change.

517. Problems with the team?

518. Sounds like Vic can be a little rough to work with.

519. No, no, Vic was always great.

520. It was, uh... It...

521. You know, just time.

522. Just time.

523. Look, I gotta go. It was good meeting you.

524. Yeah. Bye.

525. I haven't seen Chalindo in weeks.

526. He may know who drowned that family.

527. He might lead us to the missing boy.

528. You have any idea where he is right now?

529. I couldn't have been a better mom.

530. You know the things I did for him?

531. Ma'am, this isn't about you.

532. It's about my boy. Why else would I be here?

533. I see you looking at me.

534. No one's accusing you.

535. You shouldn't be. It's not my fault.

536. That boy just did whatever.

537. You try stopping him every night.

538. I tried more than any mom I know. Any mom.

539. Well, yes. I can see that.

540. Ha. Looks like Lompoc.

541. Tell you what, for Christmas,

542. I'll throw a couple of bars on the window.

543. Thirteen years, you learn what you can live without.

544. All I wanted was a view.

545. Where's the witness?

546. Stop asking around about me, man.

547. If there's something you wanna know, come straight at me.

548. You even have a witness?

549. Elena!

550. Elena, she mops up at the motel.

551. Said she saw two dudes, Latino,

552. leaving that room with that kid.

553. Those cholos took him screaming and crying.

554. They got in a blue Honda.

555. I got some of the license plate, I didn't see the rest.

556. And you didn't say anything to the detective on scene?

557. Once I offered her protection, she agreed to come forward.

558. Tell me. What kind of protection

559. can an ex-con motivational speaker offer?

560. Hey, man, you asked for a favor and I gave it to you.

561. Now, maybe one day, you'll give me one.

562. I doubt it.

563. I gotta run a partial. Yeah.

564. Billings tells me he found a loan shark

565. who spotted the drowned dad

566. He was bound to find trouble one way or another.

567. What are you working?

568. Coronado Boys.

569. A gang in the loosest sense.

570. I'm trying to make ties to find Chalindo Gopez,

571. the supposed friend of the drowned boy.

572. All these should be in a database

573. or at least on a wall somewhere.

574. The Barn's an apt name. We're low-tech.

575. When Mackey ran point on gangs,

576. how did he organize his intel for everyone?

577. Organization's not one of Vic's strong suits.

578. What is?

579. Uh, I'll let you do your own evaluations.

580. I know you were on track to be captain here.

581. Yes, I was.

582. Whoever cost you that job, it wasn't me.

583. I'll remember that.

584. What do you plan on doing to square things with the DA?

585. What are they planning on doing to square things with me?

586. Seventeen cases overturned,

587. another 40 on appeal.

588. They have a right to be pissed.

589. Aceveda could've fought for me. So could you.

590. You've made your point.

591. Might be time to move on.

592. Claudette, Vic's got a location on a suspect.

593. Clear!

594. Clear!

595. Left!

596. Clear.

597. Hey.

598. Hey, buddy. Don't be scared, it's okay.

599. Don't be scared.

600. Hey, Eddie.

601. Hi, Eddie. Come on. It's okay, it's okay.

602. It's gonna be okay.

603. Come on out No one's gonna hurt you.

604. Come with us. I know.

605. I know. Let's take you off this.

606. Come on. Good boy.

607. That's all right.

608. Oh, gee.

609. Shh...

610. They've taken the boy to Mission Cross Hospital.

611. I'll call my friend. She'll take care of him.

612. What about finding Fernando Cruz?

613. I got his cell phone number. If we get a warrant,

614. the phone carrier can triangulate his position.

615. Grab who you need, pick him up.

616. Good work, Vic.

617. Those are both the suspects.

618. Pick 'em up.

619. Let's go.

620. Hey. Rabbit.

621. Suspects bailed. Detectives in foot pursuit.

622. Go, go!

623. Hands! Let me see your hands!

624. Go!

625. Get down!

626. Hey, you go straight. You go straight.

627. Stay down! Hands behind your back.

628. Don't move.

629. All right, sir, your ambulance is here.

630. I thought I said no hospital.

631. But you've been shot.

632. See that exit wound?

633. I have no insurance.

634. The city will cover it.

635. They'll cover it until they send me the bill and hound me.

636. Just ask my cousin.

637. Hey, look, you need medical attention, all right?

638. It's not an option.

639. Sir, please, look, who shot you?

640. I don't know, man. It was a drive-by.

641. Dispatch wants us to hang here

642. until the detectives arrive.

643. A hundred witnesses, no eyes.

644. You blame them? Guy got shot cleaning his yard.

645. What do you think they'd do to someone

646. willing to testify in open court?

647. Oh, sit down.

648. You know, when the, uh,

649. assistant chief gave me the rundown on this place

650. your name came up.

651. Uh, well, the DA's got a hard-on for my partner.

652. Claudette seems dug in.

653. That's because she's right.

654. Well, whether she's right or not,

655. she's gonna drag you down with her.

656. Hey.

657. Congratulations in order?

658. One guy has aggravated assault. I bet he's the Killer.

659. The other a few misdemeanors, he's probably just a puppy.

660. You know, it's, uh, really not my business,

661. but could you give the puppy to Wagenbach and Wyms?

662. Well, he'll probably break first.

663. But they could use the win.

664. It's really not my place.

665. I can tell you're not the sort.

666. What sort?

667. The sort that would parade a family down to a bathroom

668. and drown them one by one.

669. Each one coming in,

670. seeing their mother, father, sister, lying there.

671. Knowing they're gonna be next.

672. It must have been terrible, huh?

673. Your boy Fernando's on the verge of collapse.

674. Good. 'Cause this little prick ain't talking.

675. Last chance to cut yourself a decent deal.

676. You drowned four people but you let the boy live.

677. That'll count for something.

678. Now, I know you're talking bullshit.

679. Your buddy's about to crack.

680. Just a matter of time before he helps himself

681. and hangs you out to dry.

682. He's acting like he thinks the little kid's dead.

683. Now, why is that?

684. I couldn't do it. Killing a little kid.

685. But you could drown four people?

686. Tito held Pops' head underwater to get him to talk.

687. But the old man died.

688. Tito said we had to do the others too.

689. What was Pops supposed to say?

690. Where the 35 grand was.

691. What was he doing with that much cash in the first place?

692. He thought he was buying la cura.

693. The cure? Heroin?

694. Chalindo convinced the son to set it up.

695. We sell some to Pops, he turns it around,

696. sells it for five times the money.

697. Maybe buys the family a house.

698. So, what went wrong?

699. There was no H. Plan was just a rip-off.

700. So the son set up his own father to be robbed? Beautiful.

701. Pops should have just handed over the cash.

702. So why'd you take the kid?

703. After the others, I couldn't let Tito do him. A little kid?

704. But Tito said he could ID us to the cops.

705. He's 3 years old.

706. It talks, right?

707. Tito wanted to put a body on my hands,

708. so he told me to do him.

709. But I couldn't.

710. So I hid him at my place, told him I did the killing.

711. This is all gonna help me, right?

712. I didn't— I didn't drown anyone myself and I saved the Kid.

713. That's all good, right?

714. Dead-Eye, I'm here to talk about a friend of ours,

715. Antwon Mitchell.

716. Let's talk inside.

717. I'm either gonna tell you to blow me

718. or you're gonna tune me up.

719. Either way, my boys can know the score.

720. I hear you got booted off your corner.

721. I'm branchin' out,

722. onward and upward.

723. Yeah, right.

724. What's the matter, a little dispute with the management?

725. I can relate.

726. It's all good.

727. You got mouths to feed.

728. How you plan on makin' coin?

729. I'm resourceful.

730. Antwon Mitchell has it in for you

731. you might as well find a corner in Miami.

732. How long you think he's gonna let you play in his sandbox

733. before he sends some smoker to whack you?

734. What do you want?

735. We could set you up.

736. Police?

737. Man, you can't afford me.

738. Try me.

739. Boys...

740. inside.

741. Daddy talkin' business.

742. You bring me a number.

743. And you give me Antwon?

744. That depends on the number.

745. Hey, fellas, come here.

746. You see who shot the man over there?

747. Sure did.

748. Yeah? What'd he look like?

749. Some white dude in a limo.

750. Oh, I saw him too.

751. It was the governor or something.

752. Shot him up Terminator-style.

753. What do you think they looked like?

754. Probably some niggas in a car.

755. You kiss your mother with that mouth?

756. Nah, I kiss your mother with this mouth.

757. You think it's funny throwing away your lives?

758. Wanna see what it looks like down in juvenile detention?

759. Ooh.

760. Look out. Here comes the beat down.

761. J But on the other hand Without a gun 7

762. J They can't get none

763. J But don't let it be a black And a white one J

764. Get outta here.

765. J They slam you down To the street top

766. Show some respect.

767. Respect?

768. You heard me, go.

769. Why you let "em give you all that shit?

770. Jesus said, "Suffer the little children unto me."

771. Yeah, that doesn't that mean we have to suffer too.

772. You get anything new on tape?

773. Yup. Mike Winston.

774. We finally nailed him, uh, shaking down those storeowners?

775. Not exactly a storeowner.

776. Son looks about 12.

777. Now, here comes Winston.

778. What did I tell you?

779. I didn't.

780. I saw ya.

781. Stop lying.

782. Ow. I didn't.

783. Yes, you—

784. Ow! Ow! Dad, stop it.

785. I didn't do it.

786. Yes, you did!

787. Ow! Stop it! I won't do it again.

788. Mom's got a psych history

789. so she's out of the picture on a 51-50.

790. And running in Winston blows our surveillance cover on him,

791. maybe everyone else.

792. Yup.

793. Shut up!

794. See what you made me do?

795. Stop your whining.

796. Let me see your liquor license.

797. Somethin' wrong?

798. No.

799. No, it looks good. Now, give me a beer.

800. It's on the house.

801. Long day. Appreciate it.

802. Hey, buddy, uh, you're in my seat.

803. That's my drink. My smokes.

804. Smoke 'em somewhere else.

805. Trying to be an asshole?

806. No, I'm just lookin' at one.

807. You saving this seat

808. for your boyfriend?

809. Mike, he's a cop.

810. Back up. It's okay. We're the police.

811. Back up, back up.

812. Okay, keep this on until you leave.

813. I'm not leaving now? Not yet.

814. Um, I've got that realtor's agreement in my locker.

815. I told you I'd stop by.

816. You sure we're doing the right thing?

817. Well, prices are up right now.

818. I'm gonna bank that money,

819. send the kids to your mom's school district.

820. I know.

821. Yeah, it's just a house.

822. Look, go get the papers. I'll sign 'em right now.

823. Okay.

824. You really did a number on Winston.

825. You gonna shed a tear for that kid-beatin' asshole?

826. No, anyway Junior doesn't have to worry.

827. He's got grandparents in Simi Valley.

828. I thought they were gonna fix your face?

829. They're gonna have to fix yours in a minute.

830. 1-Tango-13, uh, listen, we've been out here all day.

831. You got an ETA on those detectives?

832. DISPATCHER should have come in at 1900 hours.

833. 1-Tango-7 needs the car.

834. Are they serious?

835. If a guy gets shot in the ghetto

836. but the detectives never show up,

837. did the crime really happen?

838. Come on. 1-Tango-7 needs the car.

839. Yeah.

840. That was quite a day yesterday.

841. Quite a night too, I see.

842. Got another big one planned for tonight.

843. One of Antwon Mitchell's pawns

844. seems to be willing to roll over on the king.

845. I got a CI contract snaking its way through the system.

846. Who'd you mix it up with?

847. Just some drunk

848. lookin' to pick a fight.

849. What kind of future are we gonna have

850. if you're already lying to me?

851. What are you talkin' about?

852. That drunk you put in the hospital is Mike Winston,

853. an extortionist in your Garage Sting.

854. I mean, that's quite a coincidence.

855. He was smokin' in a public place.

856. Wait a second.

857. We caught the prick on tape whackin' his kid.

858. This seemed like a regular thing.

859. Couldn't make a case against him

860. without jeopardizing the whole Garage Sting.

861. So you beat the shit out of him?

862. I gave him the chance to take the first shot. He did.

863. I got him on assaulting a cop, which violates his parole,

864. sends him back minimum one year

865. gets his son away from him,

866. back to his grandparents.

867. Well, that's smart. Thank you.

868. Pretty stupid too.

869. You were all fired up about those motel murders

870. before you knew a boy was missing.

871. Why?

872. Look, when I had the Strike Team, we were—

873. We were settin' up to close that joint down.

874. Then...

875. Then other things got in the way.

876. You're dedicated.

877. You know the streets.

878. But you also accessed a confidential letter...

879. went after your CO,

880. topped it off with a bar brawl chaser.

881. Seems to me like you're lookin' for a way out.

882. I don't want out.

883. Aceveda's letter means

884. that no other unit's gonna hire you.

885. I'm stuck with you.

886. I was thinking of putting you back into play, but now...

887. I'm starting a task force to target gangs.

888. Unis, detectives.

889. Study their turf, ink, chains of command.

890. We crack down, improve life for everyone else.

891. Good luck.

892. The department wouldn't fund another guy for the Strike Team.

893. It's gonna be funded through a forfeiture program.

894. You're seizing property?

895. Houses, cars, businesses, anything bought with drug money.

896. Some cash comes to us,

897. some to the DA.

898. What sold the chief is putting a third back

899. into neighborhood programs.

900. I need someone to spearhead the plan on the street.

901. Someone who... won't lose control.

902. Someone who can make it work

903. without embarrassing me.

904. I want it.

905. People out there think

906. that Antwon Mitchell's an actual option

907. because we haven't given him any competition.

908. I believe in offering

909. people a hand even if they do slap it away.

910. I said I want the job.

911. I need to trust you.

912. Right now...

913. I don't.

914. You have a week to get your shit together.

915. Show me something.

916. They'll point the finger at each other.

917. We got 'em both.

918. Find the friend who set it up?

919. Chalindo? Looks like he skipped.

920. Mom of the year tipped him off.

921. Juvie's tracking him now.

922. Excuse me.

923. Good work catching these guys.

924. Actually, I couldn't have done it without Wagenbach and Wyms.

925. Well, you're the primary.

926. Glad to know getting a confession,

927. finding the money,

928. had nothing to do with solving this case.

929. I guess it's just you and me.

930. This is couples counseling.

931. I can't do it myself.

932. Lower your voice.

933. What is it?

934. You don't like this doctor either?

935. I'm trying.

936. You say that but you're not.

937. Not at home.

938. Not in Hawaii.

939. I'm sorry your therapy's not working for me.

940. You've given up.

941. You need to get past it.

942. I'm tired of feeling like I was raped too.

943. If 'm not good enough for you,

944. go find someone else.

945. We should just end this, say it isn't working.

946. A divorce? I'm not even gonna listen to this.

947. Whatever it is you need to do to help yourself,

948. do it already.

949. Dead-Eye's two boys are in with the mom.

950. We'll bring 'em in later.

951. I'll round up a couple cots.

952. God, I hope this guy's not bonin' us.

953. Shit. We got a problem.

954. Down!

955. Freeze! Police!

956. All right, come out!

957. Come out right now!

958. Shane?

959. What the hell are you doin' here?

960. I got a call about a shooting.

961. What are you doin'?

962. We didn't hear any call.

963. One of my Cl's phoned in a tip.

964. Where's your backup?

965. I'm solo tonight.

966. Well, did you call it in?

967. I was about to.

968. What's your Vice Unit have to do with this guy?

969. Dead-Eye had a lot of vices.

970. Watch the door.

971. So how you doing?

972. Kids all right? Is, uh...?

973. Is Cassidy still with ya?

974. Yeah.

975. I heard you and Mara had the baby.

976. Yeah. Yeah, three, uh...

977. Three weeks ago.

978. Named him Jackson.

979. As in Michael?

980. As in Stonewall.

981. Congrats.

982. So I heard about Reyes taking the, uh, Street Crime Detail.

983. Guess you'll be stuck on videotapes for a while, huh?

984. I worked the drowning,

985. the hotel, yesterday at the Pavo Real.

986. Yeah, the place always was a pit.

987. Yeah, a pit we were about to pull the plug on.

988. Except we were too busy covering our asses.

989. Yeah. Well, too many dickheads, too little time.

990. What are you doing?

991. Taking his blackberry.

992. I had some dealings with this guy.

993. You know how that is.

994. No, I don't. Put it back.

995. I can't do that.

996. My name's in there.

997. What about Antwon Mitchell's?

998. What are you, llAD now?

999. I don't see that jacket fitting.

1000. Why are you here?

1001. Who did this?

1002. You wanna smell my gun?

1003. Antwon Mitchell do this?

1004. You know, I honestly don't know.

1005. But I'll tell you what, I'll let you call it in.

1006. J Day

1007. J Day

1008. J Day

1009. J Throw your hands up J

1010. J Just another day

1011. J Just another day
