The Shield 5x2

1. Yesterday, Measure 16 on the city ballot failed

2. which means we'll have to make do with the lack of manpower

3. in the Barn and on the street.

4. Hold this out long enough, some people feel compelled

5. to take the gum.

6. It's a sign they'll crack.

7. Gum? Oh, no, thanks.

8. Here you go.

9. Sure, thanks.

10. You know that IAD has been

11. looking into Detective Mackey

12. and the Strike Team he ran while under your command.

13. We've got Lemansky.

14. He lifted a brick of tar.

15. We've been waiting for it to spin.

16. So you still got nothing on Mackey?

17. We got a CI. When he jumps, we'll know.

18. Vic and his guys are tight. Lemansky, he's a soldier.

19. You're gonna need to drive a wedge between him and Mackey.

20. Terry was working with Justice.

21. And I think Vic had him killed.

22. We killed a— A cop.

23. Get over it. Don't bring it up again.

24. Curtis Lemansky. I need you to come with us.

25. Why is it that the guy with the conscience

26. always has to get caught holding the bag?

27. What do you want? We want the guy

28. that put it into motion.

29. Who do you think I want, Curtis?

30. Still no Lem?

31. Left a second message.

32. Probably knee-deep in a booty call.

33. Hope he's getting the cop discount.

34. I hear yours charges by the minute.

35. I get mine for free.

36. Must be seeing a charity worker.

37. I was about to call you again. Nice of you to show up.

38. Better be a good reason for blowing up my phone.

39. Who dimed you that crack mule last year?

40. It's payback time, man. Come look at this.

41. Man, look at my windshields.

42. We don't monitor lemon laws.

43. Good thing they're sold as is.

44. Look, don't waste my time again.

45. Next time you call me, it better be something real.

46. Shit, the name Vic Mackey used to have some juice around here.

47. Up to no good, looking to run and hide from Vic Mackey?

48. Oh, no, he'd find you and you'd get yours.

49. Now assholes like him lean on honest people

50. 'cause they know cops like you can't do dick anymore.

51. Who's leaning?

52. Wetback.

53. Street name, Doomsday.

54. Squeezing every shop on the block for insurance.

55. Is that real enough for you?

56. How long has it been going on?

57. Couple of months.

58. Man, I've come in today, man.

59. I missed one payment. One payment.

60. And look at my windshields now.

61. Man, my son's right. He's right.

62. It's every man for himself from now on.

63. Shit, I should have paid that prick off.

64. You're scared. It's understandable.

65. You made a serious mistake

66. and you don't see a way out of this.

67. I didn't commit any crime. I'm a goddamn cop.

68. Gotta start with denial till you get your head around all this.

69. It's cool. I understand, really. We got time here.

70. I've never seen those drugs before.

71. Come on, man.

72. It was taken from your vehicle with a search warrant.

73. I got the seizure on videotape.

74. You know I can walk out of here right now.

75. Yeah, well, if you do, I'm gonna have to arrest you

76. take you downtown, make it official.

77. I'm trying to save you the embarrassment here.

78. I got nothing to be embarrassed about.

79. We've both been through enough of these

80. so I can be straight with you, yeah?

81. Sure.

82. Every guilty suspect that you've ever interviewed

83. started with denial, right?

84. So did the innocent ones.

85. Ah, you must be Doomsday.

86. Who are you?

87. I'm Armageddon.

88. Say hello to the hounds of hell.

89. Ruff.

90. You've been squeezing the local business owners.

91. Consider us the Better Business Bureau shutting your ass down.

92. I didn't invite you in. You got some paper or something?

93. Unofficial visit.

94. Letting you know cops are on the job in Farmington.

95. Yeah, and we're putting the word out

96. one asshole at a time.

97. Get your toy-cop ass outta here.

98. Are you getting my message, or you need your ears cleaned?

99. What are you laughing at?

100. The only words I wanna hear out of your mouth

101. are, "Si, señor."

102. Suck my dick, señor.

103. Hey!

104. No warrant. It's your call.

105. Hey. Over here.

106. Get up.

107. Get up. Come on.

108. Hands up.

109. That'll give you plenty of time

110. to think about your new career direction.

111. We'll return this to its rightful owners.

112. You gotta take a piss, be sure and give us a call.

113. I need to get back to my team.

114. Eat something. We're gonna be here for a while.

115. The only thing outside that door for you

116. is a prison cell.

117. And I haven't been able to tell you

118. how I'm gonna keep you out of it yet.

119. You know, I read your package

120. and, uh,

121. I met with one of your old partners.

122. And he said that...

123. He said you made a lot of great arrests.

124. You started off an upright guy.

125. What happened to you?

126. How'd you go from riding with cops to hunting 'em?

127. Tio Osmond.

128. Diagur Leyva.

129. Connie Reisler.

130. They were all Strike Team CIs.

131. So what?

132. Any of the people you work with make it out alive?

133. Look, they chose the life.

134. They chose to cooperate with the police.

135. And now they're dead.

136. Better them than us.

137. Or did you forget that from the academy?

138. Angie Stubbs.

139. She was 15 when she helped you

140. before she was murdered.

141. She choose the life too?

142. No.

143. She was a good kid.

144. Bet she was.

145. What do you think should happen to, uh...?

146. To someone who kills a kid like that?

147. To someone who kills a cop

148. or a grandma?

149. Life in prison? Death penalty?

150. The needle's too good for someone like that.

151. Finally.

152. We agree on something here.

153. Detective Terry Crowley.

154. Remember him?

155. Two and a half years ago, he was on your Strike Team.

156. He was undercover when he was killed.

157. Part of a federal investigation into your team.

158. You know what, I've seen a lot of things

159. that make me think that you're a good guy.

160. I just cannot figure out

161. how you could be involved with this murder.

162. What are you talking about?

163. Terry was killed by a drug dealer.

164. I was there. I know you were there.

165. But we both know that that is not the way it went down.

166. Could you be more full of shit right now?

167. Terry was killed in the line of duty.

168. The one thing I know for sure is that by the end of the day

169. you are either gonna be helping me with the truth

170. or you are going to be behind bars.

171. What's up, big mama? You ready to announce Papa yet?

172. No, but you'll be the last to know.

173. Listen, guys, Lem's running late.

174. What, he call in? No. A friend did.

175. Said his car broke down. He'll be in as soon as he can.

176. Okay, thanks.

177. Guess honey was nothing to write home about.

178. Got multiple homicides on Dozier.

179. Billings gave this to you.

180. Is it gang? You tell us.

181. Two black males, a black female.

182. You're no one till somebody kills you.

183. Not in this corner of paradise.

184. These kids aren't flying colors.

185. Any forced entry?

186. Back door's busted in.

187. Victims had cash and credit cards.

188. Whoever it was didn't get much.

189. Whoever it was got exactly what they came for.

190. She called it in.

191. Came over to study with her friends,

192. saw the bodies through the window.

193. Street's gang-neutral.

194. Plus, this was a beating, not a shooting.

195. Strictly personal.

196. Any crack houses in this neighborhood?

197. None that register.

198. All right, let's find out who these kids were.

199. What they were into.

200. Bodies are still warm. Let's crack it before they cool.

201. Shop owner found him on the pavement.

202. He didn't recognize him.

203. Strong odor of alcohol. Any bars nearby?

204. No. A couple of auto body shops, a church up the street.

205. I checked the wallet. Lives 10 blocks from here.

206. Good. You're starting to get an instinct for

207. the right things to look for.

208. Well, he didn't walk here on his own.

209. Not in that condition.

210. Check the houses on this side of the alley

211. and look around for some teeth.

212. Guillermo Solis. Alcohol-induced coma.

213. EMT says it's 50-50.

214. Where have you been? I'm here now.

215. Since when does a misdemeanor drunk in public

216. need two detectives?

217. I don't think this guy fell over.

218. He had broken teeth, facial cuts.

219. I'm calling it an assault.

220. Any sign of robbery? Didn't take his money.

221. I'm thinking he was dumped here.

222. So he got drunk, he passed out.

223. They drug him here, let somebody else deal with it.

224. It's not the most neighborly thing

225. but we've seen worse and we didn't call it assault.

226. Uh...

227. Maybe.

228. Hang on a second.

229. I saw you look out. Now open up. Now.

230. Always look out your window?

231. There's cops. I was curious.

232. Curious enough to see something that

233. happened earlier across the street?

234. We're gonna keep talking.

235. It's gonna take your neighbors about 30 seconds

236. to figure you do know something.

237. So you might as well tell me so I can get off your porch.

238. Quiet.

239. I came home to let my dogs out

240. and I saw somebody leaving that house.

241. What did he look like?

242. Got something?

243. I'm not leaving till I find out.

244. Look, the guy was scary.

245. He looked right at me and I went cold.

246. He looked like evil, okay?

247. Go now.

248. I'm gonna take you in

249. and put you with a sketch artist.

250. You said you'd leave me alone.

251. A lot of people wanna know what evil looks like.

252. Councilman. Hey, hey.

253. Hey.

254. I picked up Lemansky last night.

255. Where is he?

256. Back at the motel.

257. Feel him out before I make a move, you know?

258. What about the rest of the team?

259. You were right about Lemansky.

260. A-a-and this Terry murder?

261. It is the soft spot.

262. But with me, it was still theoretical.

263. I mean, I'm trying to get inside it

264. and I will get inside it.

265. But I need you to add that personal element to it.

266. The department brought you in to close this

267. and you come running back to me?

268. I can just see where this is going,

269. a-and I'm not above asking for help.

270. Besides, I thought Crowley was your friend.

271. He was.

272. You suspected Mackey all along, and you just let him go.

273. I pursued it as far as I could.

274. Yeah, well, here's another chance.

275. Mackey's out the door in four months.

276. Forced retirement.

277. Out the door? Fifteen-year pension.

278. That ain't a bad reward for killing a cop, is it?

279. Sorry. Please, sorry.

280. We could never prove it.

281. But you know it.

282. And now we got someone that can prove it.

283. Hold on a second.

284. Witness give you something?

285. You gotta see this.

286. Sure looks a lot like the Salvadoran we leaned on today.

287. Doomsday? Ah.

288. Could be. It—

289. It's hard to tell. Besides, he's tied up.

290. Is that Doomsday?

291. We put this out yet?

292. Yeah, went out on the wire a few minutes ago. Gets worse.

293. IDs came back on the victims at the house.

294. Community college geeks. No history of trouble.

295. One of the males' last names was Hughes.

296. As in Hughes Used Cars? It was his kid.

297. Big D said he didn't pay last week, remember?

298. So Doomsday sent a message.

299. We don't know that yet.

300. It was a couple of busted windshields.

301. Why'd we push so hard?

302. 'Cause There's still some laws in Farmington,

303. no matter what the voters reject.

304. Plus he came at me. He was in my face.

305. That the suspect in the triple murder?

306. Yeah.

307. Do we know him?

308. Uh, could be a Salvadoran lowlife

309. who lives in the neighborhood.

310. We're trying to get a 20 on him now.

311. You think it's another racial incident?

312. I'll let you know. Great.

313. Grab some extra unis if you need 'em.

314. Yeah, if we can find one.

315. So we cause a triple murder before breakfast

316. start a race war before dinner. That's a pretty good day.

317. Get the word out to the Aztecs and Zulus

318. that this wasn't retribution.

319. Some beef about business, that's all.

320. You with me?

321. Yeah.

322. He chewed through that goddamn thing?

323. Holy shit.

324. We gotta find this guy.

325. You got a minute?

326. Sure, come in.

327. I need a line on a Salvadoran, calls himself Doomsday.

328. You heard of him?

329. No. Know where he lives?

330. Temple Colter area. You got friends down there?

331. I'll have to spread a little love around.

332. I need to pull this guy off the street now.

333. Now, this is one of those times

334. you can earn yourself some real money.

335. That's too much, Vic. All I need is a couple dubs for my girls.

336. Keep what you save.

337. Ten times that amount if we can get him in custody.

338. Everything copasetic?

339. Yeah.

340. That's what I like to hear.

341. All the emperor needs is a toga and a violin

342. while Farmington burns.

343. They offered you that job first. You turned it down.

344. And it would have been yours but you screwed it up.

345. Mrs. Solis.

346. Thanks for coming in. How's your husband?

347. At the hospital they said the machines are keeping him alive.

348. But his brain...

349. Sorry.

350. We, uh— We just need your signature here

351. and you can take his personal effects.

352. Uh, did you see your husband last night?

353. I took him to church for his meeting.

354. Is it a 12-step program?

355. They didn't work for Guillermo. He just kept on drinking.

356. What sort of meeting was this?

357. Señor Romero has them drink un—

358. Until the alcohol cures the sickness.

359. Aversion therapy.

360. You weren't concerned when he didn't come home?

361. Señor Romero lets them sleep at the church

362. if they're in, you know, bad shape.

363. Who's, uh, Señor Romero again?

364. Our minister.

365. Señor Romero? Yes.

366. We need to talk to you about Guillermo Solis.

367. Is there a problem?

368. He's in a coma. He may not live.

369. Too much drink.

370. Lord bless his soul.

371. We understand you were treating him for substance abuse

372. at the church last night.

373. I don't treat people. I don't have a license for that.

374. He attends our prayer group.

375. Where you, uh, feed booze to alcoholics?

376. That's— That's fascinating.

377. Everything they drink,

378. they drink of their own free will.

379. We fight the sickness with sickness.

380. This aversion therapy, it really works for some people?

381. It's how I conquered my issues with alcohol.

382. Otherwise, I wouldn't have my business and my church.

383. My ex-wife was a drunk.

384. Think if I'd hauled her off to happy hour every night,

385. I could've saved the marriage?

386. I wouldn't wanna speculate. Who else was there last night?

387. Uh, Hector Santiago. He works at the church.

388. And he's going through the therapy.

389. Just the three of you?

390. Well, the group gets smaller as more of us are healed.

391. Well, uh, keep up the good work.

392. Sure.

393. Told you I had a feeling.

394. Preachers need to stick to preaching.

395. Want me to ask Romero if he's got that in your size?

396. Your witness was worried about her dogs.

397. She made me promise to come check on 'em.

398. Living room.

399. Guess Doomsday ain't a member of PETA.

400. What do we know about Doomsday?

401. He's from North Carolina.

402. Did a stint for agg assault in Atascadero,

403. got out six months ago.

404. Took a guy's eye out with a fork

405. for stealing his food in junior high.

406. Keep pressing the local sets.

407. Guys like this make friends all over.

408. It's a good thing you pulled Irma in.

409. Where are the heads?

410. Nowhere. Checked the whole place.

411. He took the goddamn dogs' heads.

412. What's he gonna do? Put 'em on a pike?

413. We gotta find this freak.

414. Councilman.

415. You two know each other already.

416. Curtis.

417. What are you doing here?

418. You've got a big decision to make,

419. not a lot of time.

420. So I thought you should get as much information as possible.

421. It's time for you to step into the sunlight, Lem.

422. Look, I didn't do anything wrong,

423. and you're not my captain anymore.

424. You took some heroin, you got caught.

425. Now, we're not just talking about your career here, Lem.

426. The city referendum showed all of us

427. what the public thinks of cops,

428. and the department's fighting to change that perception

429. so somebody has to pay a price.

430. And right now, that's you.

431. Well, you know what?

432. I'll take my chances with the truth in court.

433. Everything that Lieutenant Kavanaugh

434. told you about Terry was true.

435. You know, Terry didn't have a grudge against Vic going in

436. but it only took him two weeks

437. to find out that Vic was a dirty cop.

438. I have his original notes detailing his suspicions.

439. He was your teammate,

440. he was a threat, so he had to die.

441. No! Never!

442. You didn't know, did you?

443. Vic never told you.

444. All this time, I thought the four of you

445. were in it together but—

446. You really didn't know.

447. This changes everything.

448. You're saying...

449. you didn't know about it until right now.

450. It was the other guys. I didn't say that.

451. I didn't say that. But you didn't know.

452. I mean,

453. I-I-I respect a-a guy being loyal,

454. but now you're protecting a guy

455. for something that you don't have any stake in.

456. Something that you told me

457. the death penalty was too good for.

458. This is a damn witch hunt right now.

459. You cannot be a cop and be a part of it with him.

460. You gotta choose.

461. Vic did not kill Terry!

462. So prove it.

463. Wear a wire.

464. Ask him as a friend. Let's see what he's got to say.

465. Look, you wanna railroad an innocent guy,

466. go ahead and do it.

467. Do it, but I do not have to help.

468. So you'd rather take on prison

469. than someone who took out one of your own?

470. Well, that— That is a...

471. tough choice.

472. But I understand.

473. Guillermo was jealous. The drinking only made it worse.

474. Did you give him reason to be jealous?

475. W-why are you asking me those questions?

476. Those are nice shoes.

477. You get those from Romero? Saw a pair like 'em.

478. They were a gift from El Señor.

479. How long have you been sleeping with Romero?

480. I have never done that.

481. But he's made advances, hasn't he?

482. I'm a married woman. He made me feel good.

483. But I told El Señor I would not betray my vows.

484. You mean, uh, "till death do us part"?

485. You know what? Know what?

486. I need a decision. I need a decision.

487. What happened to having some time?

488. Can't believe you need any.

489. Look, Vic is your friend and you're loyal,

490. but you also gotta be loyal to your badge.

491. Gotta be loyal to yourself.

492. To an innocent...

493. brother cop.

494. It's decision time.

495. You tell me.

496. Do I parade you into Police One

497. or do I call a technician,

498. wire you up?

499. You know, Lem,

500. if Vic is innocent like you say,

501. you'd be helping him out.

502. If I do...

503. what do I get out of it?

504. Doomsday's here?

505. According to Emolia's friend.

506. It's not exactly laying low.

507. All right, let's go.

508. On the ground now!

509. Let's go! Let's go right now!

510. On the ground! Get down on the ground!

511. You son of a bitch. You do need your ears cleaned.

512. Where'd you put the dogs' heads?

513. What are you talking about?

514. Right.

515. Where does Mackey like to put these?

516. On the chest.

517. Make a case on Mackey, the others,

518. you walk away free.

519. Here you go.

520. There's one more thing.

521. If you lie to me,

522. you try to screw me

523. or you just don't live up to the deal

524. I will push for maximum

525. for distribution of heroin.

526. Just know that's the truth. Did you get all that?

527. Perfect. Mike's working great.

528. Let's go.

529. Hey, hey. Where you going?

530. I've gotta run an errand. Sorry. I'll be back in about an hour.

531. Can't it wait? I'm trying to close.

532. Sorry. Is everything okay?

533. Yeah, I'll hurry back.

534. Well, I'll start. Jump in when you get back.

535. Tox report came back. He was practically embalmed.

536. No way he had enough motor function to swallow

537. much less hold the bottle.

538. It even amazes me sometimes how much

539. these chronic alcoholics can put away.

540. You, uh, screwing any other sheep in your flock, Reverend?

541. Or you just like giving shoes to all the pretty wives?

542. I don't know what you're talking about,

543. and in my faith I am called Apostle, not Reverend.

544. How did Guillermo's front teeth get broken?

545. He must have fallen down.

546. You shoved a bottle in his mouth.

547. Celia Solis said she wouldn't sleep with you

548. while her husband was alive

549. so you tried to kill him, but only his brain died.

550. Well, the devil did that to him.

551. Alcohol was his demon.

552. Santiago said Guillermo had the shakes.

553. You notice anything like that?

554. I left them both asleep in the sanctuary.

555. I went to my office. I wrote this week's sermon.

556. When I returned, Guillermo wasn't in the church.

557. I figured he had sobered up enough to walk home.

558. And Santiago was too out of it to say otherwise.

559. You've got all your bases covered.

560. I'll put my hand on the Bible.

561. Not as much fun as putting your hand on another man's wife.

562. Get in there,

563. you sick prick.

564. Glad you could join us.

565. Hey.

566. Smells ripe, buddy.

567. Hope you put a little boom in her womb.

568. I had to stop by my friend's on the way back from Chino.

569. The car broke down so I waited a half day for a mechanic.

570. Good thing you didn't call back.

571. I ain't about to haul my ass out there to pick you up. Oh, yeah.

572. Hey, Vic. Downtown called.

573. They wanna see any records that you have on Terry Crowley.

574. They say why?

575. No, just want anything you got.

576. Probably just wanna close out the file.

577. Yeah.

578. I gotta pull a couple of old boxes,

579. but I'll see what I can do.

580. Missed the first half. We're still in the game.

581. We just picked up a suspect in a triple murder.

582. Put me in, coach.

583. It's not him.

584. Oh, for chrissakes. Don't do this.

585. I said it's not him.

586. This man killed three innocent people today.

587. That's not my fault.

588. What about the next person he kills?

589. That will be. He already killed my dogs.

590. Well, you think just 'cause you're not ID'ing him

591. that he's not gonna try to kill you too?

592. You're protecting a killer. Makes you no better than he is.

593. Sorry.

594. For the record, I saw someone,

595. but not him.

596. What happened to your hands?

597. Looks like you got into one hell of a dogfight.

598. Scratched them up someplace.

599. Senior Hughes refuses to pay you protection,

600. Junior winds up dead.

601. Niggers die every day.

602. You save that grin for the lineup

603. before I smack it off your face.

604. Need a witness for a lineup.

605. Ruff, ruff.

606. I'm holding you on suspicion of vandalism.

607. Cruelty to animals.

608. That means we're about eight minutes into

609. a 12-hour conversation.

610. Wanna see how cruel I can be to animals like you?

611. A lot can happen in 12 hours.

612. Problem for you is we don't scare like girls.

613. And our bite's as good as our bark, asshole.

614. We gain entry and do what?

615. Separate the parties,

616. look for visual signs of injury.

617. You taking the son?

618. Yeah, you get the father.

619. Control the scene. Use force if necessary.

620. Over there.

621. Hey! Come here, come here.

622. Did she take it? Calm down!

623. Calm down!

624. Calm down. He's on the drugs again.

625. She steals all my shit, and you let her get away!

626. I need you to step outside.

627. He gets all cranked up. Sir.

628. Sir, I just said you need to step outside.

629. Shit.

630. Control him!

631. Hey, that's enough!

632. Tina! That's enough!

633. Thanks.

634. He wouldn't listen to me. Make him listen.

635. I was trying to— Trying gets you killed.

636. You failed to get the father out of the room,

637. then you used excessive force.

638. You said to use force if necessary.

639. Controlled hits. Behind his knees—

640. That's exactly what I was doing.

641. No force would have been necessary— None.

642. —if you had followed proper procedure.

643. That's gonna need stitches.

644. Corrine, hi.

645. Hi, Jon. Um... You picking up your son?

646. Yeah, my— My ex was supposed to.

647. She bailed out at the last second, so...

648. I skipped out of work and came here.

649. I'm sorry.

650. It's par for the course.

651. Hey, guys.

652. You know what?

653. Why don't you guys go play over by the swings for a bit?

654. Watch your sister for me, okay?

655. So is it a bad divorce, or...?

656. Yeah.

657. Uh, she's with this other guy now.

658. I got primary custody, she's, uh,

659. supposed to be paying child support.

660. She's this big-time money manager.

661. I haven't seen a cent though, in, like, three months.

662. You're kidding? I mean, she doesn't even

663. help out at all?

664. No. I-I'm just running a little late

665. on the tuition here.

666. And you? You're paying for your children all by yourself?

667. Oh, no. Uh, Vic helps out.

668. But with the occupational therapists,

669. and the evaluations, and—

670. Yeah. Um...

671. You know, Vic always comes up with whatever extra cash

672. I need for the kids, so...

673. He sounds like a great guy.

674. Ah, well, let's not make him a saint quite yet.

675. Yeah? What's his bad side?

676. I'm just trying to compare him to my ex's bad side because...

677. Okay. Well, he's hard-headed.

678. Uh, he likes to get his way.

679. And job comes first.

680. Same here.

681. But he loves his kids.

682. What's your boy's name again?

683. Andrew. Andy.

684. Uh, is he? No, he's, um...

685. He's doing some extra work with one of his teachers right now.

686. Maybe, uh, you can bring Andy around

687. for a play date some time?

688. That would be a huge, huge help.

689. Billings keeps asking what we got.

690. We got nothing. No prints, no weapons—

691. No goddamn witness.

692. Maybe we cut this guy loose

693. and continue this conversation on the street.

694. What kind of conversation?

695. Irma's the only thing we had. She ain't sticking her neck out.

696. We could turn him on to Special Cases.

697. Let them run with it.

698. Pass the buck?

699. Have the street think we're stuck behind desks

700. with our tail between our legs?

701. They got the resources, the manpower—

702. Every minute he's free, we're a bigger joke.

703. We're gonna handle this guy so people know that we got him.

704. Hey, what about the, uh—

705. The guy that we met on the Mexi sting last year?

706. What about him? Hold on.

707. Look, I got— I gotta take off, man.

708. Where you going?

709. My stomach's been bugging me.

710. Do you mind, uh, if I pick it back up tomorrow?

711. Sure, you gonna be all right?

712. Yeah. It's just my medicine.

713. I'm back on it. I left it at home.

714. All right, I'll see you tomorrow.

715. Yeah.

716. He gonna get paid for today?

717. Keep going.

718. It's a great country.

719. Respecting the human rights

720. of a bloodthirsty piece of shit like yourself.

721. I just might have to sue your ass.

722. I got a feeling your life just took a turn for the worse.

723. Or it could just be wishful thinking.

724. You go back to filling out your paperwork.

725. Stay the hell off my street.

726. Well, I told you to lose the earrings.

727. Figured it was no big deal but I should've listened to you.

728. Protocol's there for a reason.

729. It won't happen again.

730. You know what? Do yourself a favor.

731. Don't turn being a cop and a girl into a juggling act.

732. Yeah. All right, see you later.

733. You were Julien's training officer, right?

734. I mean, he's a good guy and all, he reads the Bible, but...

735. But maybe he has a problem working with women.

736. We may have the same plumbing,

737. but that doesn't mean I'm gonna dish with you.

738. I didn't mean it like that.

739. You wanna succeed around here? Do yourself a favor.

740. Just listen up and do like you're told.

741. What did I miss?

742. Uh, everything.

743. I lasered the PowerPoints on the Romero thing for the DA.

744. They weren't biting.

745. You called the DA?

746. Yeah. I just said I lasered them.

747. What'd you tell 'em?

748. What Claudette told me.

749. On my way out, he asked me where we were. I filled him in.

750. Well, we're still investigating. The guy is guilty.

751. Look, your hunches notwithstanding

752. my sense is they're not gonna find the arena sexy enough.

753. Sexy enough?

754. Hey, I'm just passing along what your partner told me

755. and what I found out.

756. You got a beef with her, figure it out

757. instead of walking on me with your anger shoes.

758. Anger shoes?

759. That's him.

760. Hello, asshole.

761. Against the wall. Come on.

762. Somebody called for a police escort.

763. Must've been you.

764. Always happy to help out a citizen in need.

765. Let's go.

766. You sure you want in?

767. Yeah.

768. Well, we can do this without you.

769. Where's the fun in that?

770. We're a team.

771. Okay.

772. What are you guys talking about?

773. Want in on what?

774. Now, take everything

775. that's a name-brand trademark violation.

776. You got it.

777. Take him into custody.

778. Is it worth taking another run at the DA?

779. Romero skates on attempted murder.

780. At least he won't be selling knockoff shoes anymore.

781. Well, you get lemons, you make lemonade.

782. Where is this hey-man-it's-all-good whatever

783. bullshit coming from?

784. Excuse me? Catch the mediocrity flu

785. Billings has been passing around?

786. This guy tried to kill somebody.

787. He's getting off on a Class B felony

788. while you took a half-day of personal time.

789. I was out of the Barn for an hour and a half today, max.

790. Come on.

791. You're coming in late.

792. When you're here, your head's not in the game.

793. I'm sorry the case didn't make.

794. It was never a slam-dunk.

795. Hey, Julien.

796. "Officer Hanlon used unnecessary and excessive force

797. in subduing the second suspect."

798. You really want that on her record?

799. That's what happened.

800. Look, Billings hasn't seen this yet.

801. Why don't you sleep on it?

802. Especially since she was coming to the aid of a fellow officer.

803. Department is still liable for her actions against

804. an unarmed citizen.

805. She's 5'4".

806. Excessive for you, excessive for her

807. are probably two different things.

808. It's my call. Night.

809. Hey, have you requested extra baton training for her?

810. No.

811. Maybe you should think about your responsibilities

812. as a training officer.

813. I also have a responsibility to wash her out

814. if she can't handle it.

815. I could've washed you out a couple of times.

816. I'd like to think that I made the right decision.

817. Where are the dogs' heads?

818. They're in the freezer.

819. I was gonna make them into soup.

820. Make that bitch who saw me drink it.

821. Where are we going?

822. Over there.

823. Come here, come here.

824. Let's go. Let's go. Get in the car.

825. Amigo.

826. Guy spends a weekend a month at a whorehouse in TJ.

827. Likes his Mexican pussy.

828. Just keep him away from the Chihuahuas.

829. But he should have left this at home.

830. Possession of a weapon in my country

831. is a very serious crime.

832. You can't do this shit.

833. You can't do this shit!

834. I'm a citizen!

835. Yeah?

836. Phones work in those Mexi jails.

837. Maybe they'll let you call the State.

838. Government types aren't too helpful getting murder suspects

839. out of foreign prisons.

840. Mexico makes our gun laws look like parking violations.

841. Good luck.

842. See you in 20 years, asshole.

843. I know you hate passing the buck.

844. What are you gonna do?

845. Hey.

846. Hey, man.

847. Something's bothering me. We need to talk.

848. Sure, what's going on? Look, I...

849. I was reading through those Terry files

850. that Danny asked for.

851. Why? It's ancient history.

852. Well, he died on our watch.

853. Something always seemed weird

854. and now people are asking for these files.

855. Where's this coming from?

856. What happened that night?

857. You were there. You know what happened.

858. You're not telling me everything.

859. Of course I am. No, no, you're not.

860. He was my friend.

861. I'm your friend.

862. You tell me. What you think you're doing?

863. Don't you lie to me.

864. Don't lie to me. What are you doing? Stop.

865. Where's the sound? I don't know.

866. I need the sound.

867. I'm working, I'm working.

868. Hey.

869. IAD has me wired, all right? What?

870. I just disconnected it. IAD has me wired, okay?

871. They're watching us right now.

872. They busted me with some heroin,

873. they're talking prison if I don't do this.

874. What else?

875. I've been protecting you all day.

876. They're gunning for all of us.

877. Some IAD player and Aceveda.

878. Okay, I gotta make a decision, and I gotta make it quick.

879. Why is it even a question?

880. Because I think you're lying to me.

881. I'm not.

882. Then you look me in the eye

883. and you tell me the truth about Terry.

884. Okay, if I don't believe you,

885. I'm gonna start looking out for myself.

886. Don't listen to them.

887. Don't buy into their bull— Tell me the truth.

888. We're a team.

889. Yeah, that Terry was a part of once.

890. Come on, come on.

891. Now tell me.

892. How can you even ask me that?

893. They told me Terry was working with the feds to bring us down.

894. Now answer me, okay? You look me in the eye.

895. You tell me the truth.

896. I mean, if we're really a team, man,

897. tell me the truth already.

898. Oh, my God.

899. We're in on this together, all right?

900. I need to go. I need to go.

901. Everything's fine.

902. We're fi— Everything's fine. Where you going?

903. We gotta talk. I need to go, man.

904. Don't.

905. Where is the sound?

906. It's gotta be his mike.

907. Lem.

908. Lem!
