Hey, man, get off my ass!
Hey! Yo, go around, man!
Hey, what is your problem, man?!
pick up. Pick up.
Hey, Julius! How you doing, my brother?
Dan, listen to me
Very carefully, okay?
I'm being followed.
Followed? You sure?
Yes, I'm sure!
Dan, look, I'm freaking out, okay?
I don't know what to do!
Well, who's following you?
I don't know, man!
I've snitched on a lot of people for you, man.
It could be any number of them that want me dead.
You need to hang up and call the police.
I thought that's what I was doing, Dan. You are the police.
Well, y-you know, you can always just wait till the last minute
And make a sharp turn.
That works sometimes.
Here goes nothing.
Julius?
It worked! Oh, no!
Ooh!
Julius, are you there? I can't hear you, my broth--
no, no, no, no.
I've been looking for you, mr. Grant.
Look, I don't know who you are,
But I got friends in the police department.
I'm warning you -- anything happens to me,
I got Detective Dan Stark on my speed dial!
Why would a Detective care about a two-bit thief like you?
'cause I'm his -- his eyes and ears in the street.
So you work with him.
Well, not -- not officially.
But look, we're basically like partners.
And if you mess with me,
Dan Stark will make you pay, okay?
And he is not afraid to break a few laws to do it, either.
I'm not scared of Detective Stark.
James Guthrie, Internal Affairs.
I'm the man who's gonna bring him down.

"The Good Guys" Season 1, Episode 19- "Cop Killer"
Whoo! All right! Got a good feeling tonight.
Some big-time punk is gonna go down!
am I wrong?
Come on. Don't leave me hanging there, big guy.
Oh, my lord.
Hey, hodge-hole.
Somebody die around here,
Or you just suck all the joy out of the room again?
There's a surprise at your desk.
There's a -- it's been nice knowing you.
What the hell is that supposed to mean?
The years pass, but the mustache remains.
Who the hell let this guy in here?
Get out of that chair before you contaminate it! I wouldn't worry about your chair, Stark.
Won't be yours much longer.
In fact, don't worry about the building or the badge either.
Okay, what is this?
Detective Bailey, I'm assistant chief James Guthrie
Of the bureau of Internal Affairs.
Don't take that card, Jack.
This guy's a cop killer.
Get too close, you lose your badge.
Believe it.
Internal affairs? W-what's the matter?
Well, I'm not here for your world-famous coffee,
If that's what you're asking.
I'm investigating Detective Stark.
I know what this is. Oh, come on, now. This -- I --
I accidentally tase one witness.
Actually, I'm not here because of a tased witness.
I lock one informant in a trunk, and --
That's not it either?
No, but, uh, feel free to continue.
I'm happy to start taking notes.
Whatever this is, I'm sure it's just a misunderstanding.
Yeah, misunderstanding, my ass.
This guy's had it out for me for years, Jacko.
Couple of years ago,
He tried to prove that I hid a bunch of evidence
In a taco truck and then blew it up.
The only thing he did prove
Is that he's a jackass with a wild imagination.
I can assure you this will be nothing
Like our last encounter, Detective.
Well, okay, what does that mean?
This time, I have this.
Case 3754?
This isn't even my case.
Man, look, I don't care whose case it is, Dan.
You owe me.
I thought we were even.
We're not even close to even.
Dan, we are completely uneven.
Look, I got nobody else I can call on this, all right?
When -- when I snitched on these dudes,
Man, I thought they had a truck full of hot phones.
I thought they were small-time thieves.
It looks like
They're more like big-time explosives smugglers.
I know that now, okay, Dan?
But, look, they know
That it was me that tipped off the cops,
So you got to go right now a-and bust them.
Get your badge. Come on.
I'm not even on duty.
And the ATF suggested I steer clear of their investigation.
I-I think their exact words were...
"permission to shoot Stark on sight."
Look, okay, you know what?
See, you're not understanding this, okay?
These explosive dudes... They're gonna kill me, Dan.
What if the van were to, uh --
What do you call it? -- Spontaneously combust?
Say -- say what, now?
You know, if the van were -- were just to,
You know, kind of kaboom?
Spontaneously. I like it.
Yeah. I think that's a great plan.
There's one hitch, though.
Vans don't combust on their own.
Really?
Look at that. Looks like it spontaneously combusted.
That's -- that's -- let's get out!
Let's get!
The ATF sent these punks upstate for 25 years
For smuggling bomb-type things.
I mean, case is closed. Very well.
Let's cut to the chase, shall we?
Perhaps you'd be so kind as to join me
In the interrogation room for questioning.
Yeah. I haven't done anything wrong.
Then you have nothing to worry about.
Let's do it now. You ask me anything you want!
Dan, don't say anything, all right?
We're gonna get you a lawyer.
Only those that fear the truth need a lawyer, Jacko.
The righteous do not pay by the hour.
Dan needs your help.
Now, I know that you've had your problems with him in the past,
But he's my partner.
Jack, it is not that easy.
It's my job to prosecute police misconduct, not defend it.
Okay, yeah, but there is no misconduct here, okay?
This is a witch hunt. This isn't even his case.
I saw the file a few weeks ago.
Spontaneous combustion? Really?
Wait. You've known for weeks?
Like you said, he's your partner,
So telling you would have been a conflict of interest.
I don't even think we should let Guthrie know
That we're dating. Oh. Oh, great.
So first I.A. Shows up,
A-and now I have to keep our relationship a secret.
Not a secret, Jack.
It's just...
Something we don't tell anybody about.
I never sat on this side of the table before.
Doesn't feel natural.
What can you tell me about your whereabouts
On October 21, 2009?
Was that a, uh, Tuesday or Wednesday?
It was a Saturday. Uh-huh. Yeah.
See, you know what? I have no idea.
I don't know where I was 11 months ago.
I don't know where I was 11 days ago. Do you?
This isn't about me.
Well, it's not about me either. I told you it's not my case.
And yet your unofficial criminal informant was involved,
There were trans am tire tracks found at the scene,
And there was a giant explosion,
Which, as far as I can tell, is a recurring motif
In a staggering number of your cases.
You don't have any hard evidence. Doesn't mean a thing.
I mean, you're just gonna make a fool out of yourself again.
I'm happy to help. Thank you.
Perhaps you should start
By wiping that insufferable smirk off your face,
Spitting out your chewing gum,
And showing me the respect I deserve
As your superior officer.
I got more respect for my gum.
Spit it out.
Spit. It. Out.
Delightful.
Anything else?
There was chewing gum found at the crime scene.
My guess -- the dna on it will match the dna on this gum.
And that, my friend, is hard evidence --
Evidence that wasn't presented at the trial,
The last piece of hard evidence that I need.
They're gonna throw this whole case out
Because I can prove that you're not telling the truth.
Those guys are gonna go free,
And that's on you, Detective Stark.
You're gonna use my gum to let a bunch of punks go free?
That's insane.
It's not insane. It's the law.
No.
Even Internal Affairs isn't crazy enough
To let a bunch of explosives-smuggling punks
Just walk out of prison.
Good news, boys.
You're getting out.
Don't mess with us, boss.
You know I'm dying to let these puppies out their cages.
Oh, geez. I hate it when you call your muscles puppies.
Will you shut up about that?
What are you trying to say, Pike?
Remember how Internal Affairs reopened the case?
They overturned your convictions. They can do that?
I guess they proved some dirty cop botched our bust.
The latin term for that is "habeas corpus."
W-what's that mean? It means you two clowns are getting out, okay?
As of today, you're free men.
Oh, yeah! That's what I'm talking about!
whoa ho ho ho!
Man, I'm like this close to shanking you.
You a free man, too, Pike?
No. I still got that secondary conspiracy charge to deal with.
But I've been studying up on that,
And that's gonna be no problem.
In the meantime, y'all know what to do.
Find that snitch Julius Grant.
And kill him.
You actually released those guys?!
What kind of a cop lets bad guys out of prison?
You let them out, Stark, when you tainted that bust.
There's no point in misdirecting your anger at me.
Yeah? You want me to misdirect your nose all over your face?
Come on! No, no, no, no! Dan!
Come on! Stop, stop, stop!
You don't deserve to call yourself a cop.
The feeling's mutual.
Now, think about this, Dan. All right?
If those guys are out there,
That means Julius is in real danger.
Now, let's go.
Are you trying to kill me?
Because this dress is deadly.
You know what I think you should do?
You should just take your dress off right now.
you know why?
It's a safety thing.
I could have a heart attack! I'm serious.
How many other girls you got calling you all the time?
Mnh-mnh. You're getting the wrong idea.
This is my boy Jack calling me, okay?
And I'm gonna cut this off right now...
...So that I can give you my full and undivided attention.
Lieutenant, can we have a word in my office?
I'm sorry. I didn't know you had an office here.
I don't.
That's exactly what I want to talk about.
Okay.
Conducting a proper internal investigation
Requires privacy.
Operating out of the bullpen
Can lead to unfortunate incidents,
Incidents such as the one which just occurred,
Where Detective Stark assaulted me
In front of your entire squad.
Look, Dan can be erratic, but, you know, he's not dirty.
Just don't take him so seriously.
I will crack up as soon as he's in jail, I promise.
In the meantime, I need an office.
Yes. Uh, this one will do nicely.
Beg your pardon?
I'll use this office
For the remainder of my investigation.
I'm sure you can use some extra time out amongst your men.
Maybe you'll notice the next time
They start attacking someone.
Guthrie, I'm not about to let you --
Why don't you start that sentence again
With "assistant chief," and we'll see where it ends.
Very well.
Assistant chief.
I want to ask you something.
What would you do if I leaned in right now
And I just kissed you?
Depends on how good of a kisser you were.
I am a very, very good kisser.
I got skills, you know what I mean?
Julius! Julius!
Where are you, my brother?!
Where are you?! Okay, darlin'! No, no, no, no.
Dallas p.D.! Dallas p.D., sweet cheeks!
Date's over! Get along!
Put your badge -- ma'am, for your own safety...
Get on out. Get on out. Get on out.
Y'all just gonna cop-block me like that?
Do you remember those -- those smugglers
You snitched on about a year ago?
Uh, the dudes who said if they ever got out of prison,
They would blow me up?
Yes, that stuck with me. They got out of prison.
Dan, you told me that they would never get out of prison.
Do you remember that? It's not my fault.
It's that damn cop killer.
He's raining his hell down upon us all!
How it happened does not matter.
What we need to do is get you to safety
Until this blows over, okay?
I was having a real good day. I got champagne.
She's -- she's a model.
Natural. She's got a nice chest.
Julius? Hmm?
Does the bar receive packages of liquor
That are normally sealed with duct tape?
No. Why?
Easy, Jacko.
Jacko, easy.
They got dogs for this. What they got dogs for?
Tell me what they got dogs for, Dan.
I need to know what they got dogs for.
Hold my hand.
Hold my hand, Julius.
I don't want to do this.
it's just whiskey.
Damn. It's whiskey.
Don't do that to me!
Pour me a shot. whoo!
Bomb.
What are your names, soldiers? Well, speak up!
Just 'cause I can't see you doesn't mean I can't hear you.
Tell me you still stock old polymer-bonded explosives.
Oh, well, well. My favorite customers.
I heard you boys were out. Is Pike with you?
Oh, no. He's still up at leland.
We got us a snitch to kill.
Oh, roger that.
You want to whip up some more of your I.E.D.S?
You'll need some, uh, rdx and old naval shells.
Uh, sweetie!
Would you bring me out some bricks of that rdx?
Anything else?
Oh, Pike wants us to pick up a few sniper rifles.
Yeah, just in case.
Yeah, well, you're in luck.
We got some new toys in this week.
Ohh.
Thank you, darling.
Now, could you grab me a rifle
With a 400-meter dual range finder
And one with the 1,000-meter laser scope?
Okay, grandpa.
Ain't she cute?
Good to have you soldiers back in the field.
Can't have you getting busted again.
So, what'd you guys do in there for 11 months, anyway?
Well, this idiot, he learned air-conditioning repair.
Yeah, well, I wanted to study demolitions,
But they didn't exactly have bomb-making books
In a prison library.
So a/c repair was the next closest thing.
Oh, that'll come in handy.
Here you go, grandpa.
Who's a good girl?
Oh, you know a place nearby
Where we can get a case of whiskey?
Bomb.
Let's see what you learned, punk ass.
Heat the place up already.
I'm waiting for that chick to leave.
Who wants to blow up a hot chick?
All right, fine. Look, she's gone.
Look, do it.
Goodbye, Julius the snitch.
S-- might be a little delay.
Seriously?!
Easy, Jacko.
Easy.
Let's go! Bomb! Let's go! Let's go!
Man, I knew we should've done this my way.
These puppies, man, they would have shut that snitch up good.
Will you shut up and stop calling your biceps pupp--
Oh.
Oh, now look what you done!
Those damn cops saved him.
So I guess I don't need to lock up, huh?
Come on, now!
Show yourself!
What happened to you?
Nearly got us killed.
I demand official police protection
For Julius Grant starting now!
What exactly does this have to do with me?
Everything! All right?
The men you released from prison tried to kill Julius.
Do you have proof? Were you able to I.D. Them?
Our investigation is ongoing, all right?
Right now we need to make sure that Julius is safe.
I'm happy to authorize protective custody
For mr. Grant -- provided, of course,
He is willing to testify in my investigation against Detective Stark.
What?! Wait, wait. Hold on.
You want me to -- to rat on Dan,
The man that saved my life?
Look, I ain't no snitch.
I-in this particular context.
If you're unwilling to cooperate with the police,
You'll just have to take your chances on the street
Like any other criminal.
This is extortion!
Tomato, to-mah-to.
Jack!
Bailey, Bailey! Back!
Lieutenant, take control of your officers,
Or you will find yourself writing parking tickets.
Bailey, Stark, let me make this clear.
You are to cease interfering with I.A.'s investigations,
Effective immediately, you got that?
In the meantime, this case ought to keep you busy.
Somebody's stealing shopping carts from grocery stores.
Are you serious?! What?!
If you don't like it, you can add an insubordination review
To your list of problems, you got that?
What about Julius?
You heard the man. He's on his own.
Mr. Grant, follow me, and I'll escort you to the exit.
Let's go. Aw, come on!
L.T., that's bull!
Julius is one of us! He's our c.I.!
Uh, Dan.
Over here. Ha!
All right.
I knew you wouldn't leave us hanging out to dry, l.T.
I've had enough of this guy.
I want Guthrie out of this station as badly as anyone.
Okay. So what are you suggesting?
This one doesn't go in the reports.
This one is just us, off the books.
Don't worry, Julius. We protect our own around here.
Yo. I think this is mine.
Leave it. If Guthrie finds out,
We're all going down.
Then he can never find out.
Okay, boys, these walls have ears,
So keep your voices down and be careful what you say.
So, tell me...
How is our dear friend Julius Grant?
Bad news, boss.
Aw, really? I'm so sorry to hear that.
Oh -- oh, not that kind of bad news.
Bad news, like he's still alive.
So I guess that's good news?
Man, you are such an idiot.
Man, don't you have, like, a thermostat to fix or something?
Tell me what happened.
Well, you've certainly made yourself at home.
Well, welcome to my office.
I mean, well, it's really not my office.
I mean, I don't even have an office.
But since we're all under the radar on this one,
I thought I'd make my own secret lair and maybe I'll name it.
Darlin', did you have something for us?
Oh! Yeah.
So, uh, anyway, um, I got this charred rubble
From the explosion at Julius' bar and analyzed it.
And guess what. You got a match.
Well, the chemical residue is rdx, which is an explosive
Linked to this ex-soldier turned weapons dealer bad-guy type.
And, well, you know, this part was easy.
He was already in our database! Ta-da!
Well, this is probably the guy
That sold Pike's gang the explosives.
He must have seen something.
I didn't see anything.
I've been stone blind since the napalm attack.
Napalm, huh? Where was that -- nam?
Fort worth, actually.
Well, thank you for your service.
We found some residue at a crime scene yesterday
That matched explosives
That you were busted for selling last March.
Must be a mistake.
I specialize in the legal sale
Of antique military weapons for collectors.
I've got permits.
So those are antique automatic weapons behind him.
I got to take this.
Okay, here's what.
I'm sorry for your ocular loss.
But I'm done messing around.
If you could see my face,
You'd see how serious I am right now.
Can you feel it?
Can you feel that mistrust? That anger?
That's... That's anger right there.
Julius? Is everything okay?
Jack, your apartment is sweet.
Listen, I got a question.
Um, can I -- I'm gonna have my girl Darci come over,
Keep me a little company.
Is that cool?
Uh, I believe the answer is no.
Come on, Jack! Man, listen. She heard about the bar.
She's a little worried about me.
And I was trying to get a little sympathy,
If you know what I mean.
Hiding involves not giving people directions
To where you are hiding.
All right. That makes sense.
So, are you saying I should just kind of
Dash over there for a little while? Is that --
Julius, do you not understand the basic concept of hiding?
You stay at my place. Do you got it?
Okay. All right. I'll do -- hey, you know what?
We're out of o.J.
And milk, too. Hello?
owner's not talking.
Hell, he's not even perceiving light.
Let's get out of here.
Sweetheart, where are you?
Come on over here.
Oh, there you are.
So...
What'd the nice cop say?
Mm-hmm.
To be clear, I worked this case with the ATF.
I had no contact of any kind with Detective Stark.
It's okay, doc.
Stop covering your own ass and tell me what you found.
Well, I did what you said.
I went back over every inch of the debris
From the van explosion, and I found this.
We thought the hole came from flying shrapnel in the blast --
That's a bullet hole.
Yes, but to reiterate,
I was told there was no gunfire on the scene.
So obviously, we weren't looking for any bullet holes.
You're doing it again.
I'm sorry. Tell me you found the bullet.
Well, yes and no. We found a bullet fragment.
I sent it to ballistics for analysis but --
But what?
It seems to have been misplaced.
Lab tech labeled it wrong.
We're searching our files now. I'm sure it'll turn up.
This has Stark written all over it.
Is there any other way to find out
If that hole came from Stark's gun?
Only if we find the bullet.
Then find me the bullet.
Now.
Who is this?
Parking garage. 15 minutes.
I have proof.
Psst! Psst! Psst! Psst!
Over here.
Thank you for meeting me.
Detective hodge, isn't it?
My identity is not important.
What is important is that I can give you
Everything you need to take Detective Dan Stark down.
And it's "hodges," actually.
What have you got?
March 27th -- Stark stole my office chair
And replaced it with a barber's chair.
Original chair never returned.
April 1st -- Stark disabled my department-issued computer
By pouring what I later confirmed was beer
Into the motherboard.
April 27th --
Stop! Stop!
Is that what you called me down here for -- practical jokes?
It's more like damage to department property
And the harassment of a fellow Detective.
Do you have anything regarding Stark shooting
At a van full of explosives
Or concealing the fact that his weapon was fired?
There is a rumor he once blew up a taco truck!
I don't want to hear about the taco truck.
Do not waste my time again, Detective,
Unless it specifically implicates Stark in this case.
Never mind.
Pike's conviction has been overturned.
He'll be released tomorrow.
When Stark hears about this,
He's going to make the mistake I've been waiting for.
Pike's been studying. He knew his rights.
Quite frankly, the case is such a mess,
I'm surprised the judge hasn't let him go before this.
It's a good thing Julius is safe.
oh, my god. Jack. Stand back.
They got Julius.
Ah. Howdy, howdy, hoo-hoo.
Dan, Julius is gone! He's not here!
Relax, Jacko.
Julius is with me.
What? Where are you?
I'm just sipping a Brewski
While the j-man gets au naturel with his lady friend
Across the street.
You didn't get my note?
Your note? What note?
I'm sorry I cop-blocked you earlier.
You should be, Dan. You -- I mean, look.
I've been with some fine women in my life, but Darci --
How about this?
I'll escort you over to her place
For a brisk conjugal playdate.
You would do that for me, man? Am I not a man?
Do I not breathe?
Do I not understand another brother's needs?
Get -- let me get my hat.
Julius. Hmm?
No woman worth wooing
Wants to be wooed by a man in that hat.
You know how much play I get in this hat?
You'd get a lot more without it. Lose the hat.
All right.
Okay? All right.
Oh, you know what? Got to write Jacko a note.
I got to tell you, Dan. Now we're even.
Don't mention it. You know, Frank --
He once drove me all the way to Tucson
Just to watch morgan fairchild open up a strip.
Looking for 313.
315.
This is it.
This is where Dekker said we'd find the snitch.
time for payback.
Julius!
He ain't here.
Maybe Dekker was wrong.
I mean, he did get his intel from a 5-year-old.
Yeah. Look at this.
Now the son-of-a-bitch cop is rubbing it in our faces.
What do we do?
Send a message of our own.
Let's trash this place.
No, I didn't get your note, Dan.
These guys definitely know we're trying to hide Julius.
I mean, they destroyed my apartment.
Well, I guess we'll just have to
Move him someplace they won't find him.
Well, well. What have we here?
you scared me.
Actually, you're still kind of scaring me.
Are you the lab tech
Who misplaced the bullet from case 3754?
Well, I'm an assistant lab tech,
So, you know, I'm kind of new at this.
Did you find it?
Uh, well, you know, I'm actually --
Is that the bullet fragment?
Hard to say, really.
We have to run some tests.
Yeah, tests, and, uh, that could take weeks
To be sure, really -- a month tops.
So you're covering for Stark, too.
Hiding evidence.
Has this whole department lost its mind?
Wh--
Samantha evans.
Looks like Detective Stark
Isn't the only one losing his job today.
What is this about? You said you were gonna bring me something.
Got you a new roommate.
Hey, thanks for letting me room with you, l.T.
I appreciate it. Whoa, whoa, whoa!
We didn't discuss this.
Things got a little dicey at Jack's.
I need you to keep my brother safe till this thing blows over.
Yeah, yeah, I just hope that they don't smash up your place
Like they did Jack's.
I'm gonna...
Great.
And, l.T., I want you to know
I don't mind taking all this heat from Internal Affairs,
But I never wanted this to come down on my friends like this.
Dan, look, you may be the biggest pain in my ass
In the entire department,
But it is not your fault that we're in I.A.'s crosshairs.
We're there because we stand by you
Because you are a good cop.
Not the greatest cop of all time?
Okay, Dan, please. I need you to focus, all right?
Yeah. I need you to stop Guthrie.
He hasn't won this yet, and if you go down, we all go down.
That's not gonna happen. Good.
That's what I wanted to hear. All right. Okay.
Go find Jack and make this right.
Get out of there! What the hell do you think you're doing?!
Exercising my legal right to search and seize
Any police-department property without a warrant.
Tell me something -- why would anybody have
An entire drawer filled with wet-naps?
I don't have to answer that.
Fine. I don't care.
I found a bullet from the crime scene
That proves that somebody shot that van.
I'll need you to hand over your gun now.
My gun's my baby! You can't take it!
It's not yours, Detective. It belongs to the department.
And when the ballistics match comes back from the lab
Proving that you blew up that van, you're done for good.
Don't do anything, Dan, all right?
I'm gonna call a lawyer. While we're at it, your weapon, too, Bailey.
Hand it over.
Wh-- n-- you can't do this.
I just did.
As of this moment, you are both under review
By the bureau of Internal Affairs.
No more police work until this is over.
You are no longer cops.
You are merely private civilians,
Helpless and impotent,
With no authority to involve yourselves
In this case in any way.
Collect their guns.
And I'll be seeing you in interrogation.
Boys, tell me some good news.
Which one's the good news again?
What are you, brain-dead?
Just tell me the snitch is dead.
Not exactly, boss. Been having some problems.
What are you talking about?
It's this cop. Dan Stark.
Every time we try something, he's one step ahead of us.
Wait a minute. Stark?
That's the same cop that pinched us the first time.
Yeah, well, he's back.
Well, then we'll take him out first.
Kill a cop? Are you sure?
Yeah, I spent my time in the joint.
I'm not taking any chances.
Dan Stark is a dead man.
Let's talk about Dan Stark.
Would you be surprised, Detective Bailey,
To learn that ballistics
Was able to match the bullet found at the scene
To Dan Stark's gun?
Was it a match?
Hmm?
You didn't say it was a match.
You said would it surprise me.
And you know what that sounds like?
It sounds like you don't have anything, like you're fishing.
Clever.
I spend a lot of time in this room.
It's part of my job.
Well, you're correct.
The bullet fragment did not match Stark's gun or yours.
And yet somebody shot that van.
Now, did Stark ever use another weapon on the job?
Not to my knowledge.
Look, what do you want me to say?
I mean, I've seen him use a car as a weapon,
Pool cue, a beer bottle.
But another gun? No.
Although, I did see him use a squirt gun once, so...
You seem like a nice kid, Jack.
From what I hear, you should be a star around here.
Talented, smart, ambitious.
You could have a big future in this department.
Are you sure you want to risk it all by lying for Dan Stark?
You seem like an honest cop, Jack, like me.
You and I are nothing alike.
Let's get one thing straight.
I can tell the good guys from the bad guys,
And I would never throw a fellow police officer
Under the bus to get ahead.
If you want to charge me with something, go right ahead.
You can call my Dallas police association lawyer.
Hell, you can even use my phone.
That's you and the A.D.A.
She's what, your girlfriend?
Now I know why I'm not getting my warrants.
It'd be funny if it weren't obstruction of justice.
No, I-it's not what it looks like!
I want my warrant to search
Stark's trailer and personal belongings,
And I'm through asking nicely.
Assistant chief Guthrie, what a pleasant surprise.
Give it to me now.
Now, I had my assistant bring that to your office yesterday.
Did you not get it?
That's ridiculous. You know what?
Uh, I'm just gonna need a little time to put another one t--
Cut the crap, blondie.
I know about you and Bailey.
I'm sorry?
Your relationship creates
Quite a conflict of interest, doesn't it?
So no more dodging my calls. No more stalling.
Warrant in my hand in six seconds,
Or I'll have you disbarred.
Excuse me, miss? Sorry.
I didn't mean to startle you there.
Uh, do you happen to know a Detective Dan Stark?
Dan. Yeah. Why?
This is so embarrassing. Uh, I'm a repair technician.
He hired me to fix the a/c at his place,
But the address we have on file is wrong.
You know, all I had was his work address, so...
Well, you could just call him. Yeah.
Uh, but, you know, I just couldn't reach him on his cell.
You know, probably out chasing bad guys or something.
You know, tried asking around here,
But no one could seem to help.
Do you happen to know where he lives?
You're his repairman? Yeah.
Well, Detective Stark hired me
To replace the condensing coils in his outdoor compressor.
Can't you just install vinyl support pads to fix the problem?
Well, you know, only if the coil fins aren't damaged.
Okay, I'll tell you where he moved his trailer.
Ah. Thanks.
I sure would appreciate it.
Wow.
Love what you've done with the place.
Okay, Jacko, we can clean this up later.
Okay? Let's go.
I mean, hell if I'm gonna let some cop killer
Ruin my friends' lives!
Okay. So what do we do?
The only thing I know how to do.
I'm gonna bust these two punks!
Pike was released from prison this morning.
Rel-- well, then, I'm gonna bust these three punks!
I'm gonna -- whatever it takes!
Oh, my god. Hey, darling. Come in.
What are you doing here?
I came by to say, well, to both of you, actually,
That I'm really sorry for getting caught
With Guthrie's bullet fragment
And maybe kind of ruining your whole careers.
Don't -- don't worry about it, darling.
You were just trying to help.
And you're not gonna lose your job either, all right?
This isn't over.
Thanks.
Hey, you know, at least I was able to help fix
Your air-conditioning problem on the trailer.
What air-conditioning problem?
Your repairman came to the station
And wanted to know where the trailer was.
And I told him. Oh, my god.
I did it again.
Jacko, now we know where they are.
Those guys are waiting for you at your place, Dan, to kill you.
Well, then we better not let them see us coming.
yeah.
I'm sorry.
There was nothing that I could do.
Guthrie's warrant went thorough to search Dan's trailer.
He's already on his way, Jack.
Well, can't you get in trouble for telling me that?
I'll risk it.
Legally speaking, that guy's a raving jackass.
Thanks, Liz.
you're not gonna believe this.
Guthrie's on his way to your place right now.
Well, he's gonna have one hell of a surprise
Waiting for him when he gets there.
Looks like he's home.
Perfect.
Dekker said these laser sights are top of the line,
So we just sit here and wait for the kill shot.
Still don't know why we're tip-toeing
Around this little piggy.
You need to let me use this.
It's got a little extra boom-boom juice in it.
You want us to trust another jank explosive
You cobbled together with air-conditioning parts?
I worked out the kinks.
No bombs, okay? I don't want to attract attention.
We keep it clean. We keep it quiet.
Hey, I know -- why don't you go down
And get back in the car and keep lookout, okay?
That'd be great.
These babies don't work, feel free to, uh, throw
Your little air-conditioner.
You ready?
Light him up.
All right. They think you're inside.
And they are packing some serious firepower.
Well, it's a good thing I brought this.
Dan, is that --
It's my silver-plated sweetheart.
It's my Sunday gun.
Your Sunday gun?
Yeah, it's always good
To carry a spare when you're off duty.
Simplifies the paperwork.
That's the gun that Guthrie was looking for.
You did shoot that van.
Yes, I did, to save Julius' life,
And you would have done the same damn thing.
Damn right I would have.
Let's get this done.
I knew you were a dirty cop, Stark, but this is disgusting.
Guthrie, listen up. The only thing I want to hear
From you, Stark, is a confession.
Oh, man, maybe we should just let these guys kill him.
Yeah, well, it'll look pretty bad
If the I.A. Officer investigating you
Is found dead in your trailer.
But, you know, it's your call.
good point.
Hey, Guthrie,
Listen to me, okay?
There's some very bad guys
With some very big guns
Right outside my trailer.
You really will say anything
To try to slip out of this, won't you?
Guthrie, you still alive?
I'm trapped! I'm really trapped.
help me.
I would love to help you, Guthrie. I really would.
But unfortunately,
I have no authority to get involved right now.
What the hell are you talking about, Stark?
Our service weapons were confiscated.
And Jack and me, uh,
We're just, uh -- how did you put it? --
Helpless, impotent civilians
With no authority to help in this case.
Remember that? This isn't a joke, Stark.
No, but you know what is funny?
The only reason these guys are out of prison
Is 'cause you let them out!
Help me!
Guthrie, the only way I can help you
Is if I use a certain Sunday gun
That may just connect me
To a certain exploded van.
You catch my drift?!
Go ahead! Use your gun! Whatever you have to do!
He says go ahead.
Okay.
Guthrie, you're gonna have to create a distraction here, okay?
You're gonna need to present a target.
Then you're gonna lift up the rug.
Underneath the rug is a panel, okay?
That's how you're gonna escape.
You always have an escape hatch in your bedroom, Jacko.
It's a lesson of love.
Okay.
Those sniper rifles are long-range.
We're gonna have to get in close.
Maybe we can surprise them. Yeah. Mano a mano.
I like it.
Okay. So you have your Sunday gun.
What do I get?
It's like a Sunday stick.
Here you go.
How could you miss with a laser sight?
Now he knows we're here.
Hey, so what?
You got a better chance of trying to flex him to death.
Let me know if you want to do it my way.
The rate you're going,
You got a better chance of starving him to death.
Hey, shut up with that, man! Hey, listen.
No more mistakes, all right?
We see some movement, we just keep firing till he's dead.
That's my baby they're shooting, Jacko!
Drop it. Drop it.
Okay.
All right. All right.
Dan, look!
N-o-o-o-o-o!
N-o-o-o!
Wh-y-y-y-y-y?!
Wh-y-y-y-y?!
Attempted murder of an Internal Affairs investigator.
Multiple witnesses.
I'd say those three are going away for good this time.
Doesn't sound like an apology to me.
Hand over your gun, Stark.
You never quit, do you?
No gun, no case.
My trailer gave her life for you.
I'm not gonna pretend to like you, Stark.
I'm not that good an actor.
Ballistic tests are...
Inconclusive.
Because the original bullet fragment from case 3754
Has been, unfortunately...
...Lost.
Case closed.
You boys got to work on your filing.
We're even now.
But step out of line again, and I will be back.
Oh, yeah. I'm counting on that.
Good news, everybody!
Assistant chief Guthrie has left the building!
All right!
Come here, baby.
Hodges, you can't get rid of me that easy.
Yeah? Well, that's what I said to my ex-wife.
See, that's one of those things you say to try and put me down,
But you just end up humiliating yourself.
Ohh. Think before you speak.
I hate you both.
Nice work, gentlemen, once again.
Please tell me you got your office back.
Yes indeed.
And I got my job back.
Dan, I'm so sorry to hear
About your trailer spontaneously combusting.
Well, it happens. You know, I've been thinking.
I-I've really learned a lot over the past couple of days.
You know, I've realized that when I break the rules,
I not only put myself in danger,
But I put the people I care about in danger.
But it's worth it.
'cause that's what makes me a great cop.
Yeah, I don't think that's what we should be taking from this.
But those were the words you used, Ana.
No. No, I didn't.
"best cop on the force," I think you said, too.
Come on. Ana, you know you're happy to have me back.
Of course.
Bring it in. Group hug.
No, Dan. Group hug!
Come on! Bring it in! Don't leave me hanging!
Ana! Ana, you know how much I need you.
Okay. All right.
All right. Good. Okay. Enough.
Everybody back to work! Let's go bust some punks!
