You're always late with the deliveries, Deke.
I'm looking for you the other day.
Where are you?
Around the corner picking up a hooker.
You got a problem with me? Try doing this on your own.
That's exactly what we're gonna do.
You know what?
You don't get to just back out of the deal.
Watch us, Deke. You said you were tied in.
Turns out you're just working independent.
Guess what. We can do that, too.
So when I say it's over, it's over.
And you really should listen to him.
And you should stop ing your own product,
'cause if you think for one second
I'm gonna let you go straight to my connection,
then the 'roids are really getting to your head.
It's already done. Deal's made.
Free market, Deke.
"Free" means we don't need you.
You guys should think twice about how protected you are.
Mm? You know why?
I make one phone call, and you're over.
What did you say?
Oh, leave it. He's just blowing smoke.
Hey, Deke, come back here!
What did you say?! Kaye!
Come back here and say that, little man!
Kaye! Kaye!
Deke! Hey!
Hey, where are you going?! Get back here!
You don't cut me out!
You wait and see! This ain't done!
Did you hear that? Yeah. Let it go, man. Just take it easy.
"This ain't done" is right.
¶ Second warning ¶
¶ Won't be a third ¶
¶ Ask around ¶
¶ I'm a man of my word ¶
Whoo! Did you see that?!
I nailed that guy! What are you thinking, man?!
He got in my face. Nobody gets in my face.
Cops. Great.
Just don't say anything, all right?
Keep your mouth shut.
Put your gun down... now!
Hands in the air!
Turn around! Back up! Get down!
Get down!
We're police.
Billy pulls in, she didn't know these two guys were cops.
Looked like weight lifters to me.
Yeah. So she takes them down.
You're up early.
I've been up all night.
Me and Lee are around the corner,
looking for a hooker who's been robbing her johns with a knife.
Call comes in... shots fired outside the gym here.
Lee's like all the way in the corner store getting coffee,
so I took the call.
Who was doing the shooting?
I don't know.
It was done by the time I got here.
Anybody get hit?
Well, we got some blood traces back there.
Oh, that complicates things.
Yeah.
I said I'd ask the union president
to personally come down and talk to them,
get them ready for I.A. shooting team.
You know we would have come down anyways.
Yeah, but this way,
I get a discount on a membership for the gym.
It's all about who you know, right?
I got to take off.
Okay. Thank you, Billy.
You guys buying their story?
I don't know.
You know, it could have gone down the way they said.
Any witnesses?
Well, we got our canvass going, but nothing so far.
What about the guy that got hit? Anything there?
I put a call in to the hospitals.
No gunshot wounds have come in yet,
but could be he's dead already or holed up somewhere.
You mind if I talk to these two guys?
I want to get them ready for the shooting team.
Mm. I love it when you ask me first.
Yeah, sure. No problem. I'll send them over.
Look at these guys.
They're built like a couple of tanks.
You know, you could look like that
if you put on about 150 pounds.
I eat like eight meals a day... ice cream, beer, potato chips.
Falls into that wooden leg of yours.
Actually, it's some kind of space-age plastic.
But it's hollow, so it serves the same purpose.
Hey, fellas. Rough morning?
Yeah. You could say that.
Frank Leo. Tommy Dunn.
I'm head of the police union.
Yeah, sure, Frank. Everybody knows you.
I'm James Kovinsky, Park East.
Spencer Kaye.
So, you guys normally work out this late
or early or whatever?
Oh, yeah, I usually try to get a workout in
before I open up the gym.
My partner Kaye here was just helping me out.
So you guys moonlight here?
No. I own it.
Oh, yeah?
Well, we're gonna need to see the paperwork on that.
Sure. No problem.
So, shooting team try and talk to you guys yet?
They wanted our guns, and we just handed them over.
It's okay, right?
Yeah, yeah. Don't worry about that.
Look, just tell me what happened.
We're inside the gym and see this black guy come out.
He was trying to steal a car.
We come out to stop him, and guy just opened up on us.
We're the victims here.
Drug dealer starts shooting, what are you gonna do?
Drug dealer? I thought it was a car thief.
Yeah, well, we figured the guy was on drugs.
You know, he went nuts.
Yeah. So, you guys all right?
You want to talk to somebody?
No, we're good.
Well, we recommend that you talk to somebody anyway, okay?
Okay. Yeah, I mean, whatever you guys think, right?
Okay. Yeah.
Well, we'll get you set up with a psychologist.
In the meantime, guys, go home, relax, put your feet up,
have a drink or a power shake... whatever you do.
You don't have to give a statement for 24 hours.
What about a lawyer... stuff and all that? Yeah, we'll get you a lawyer.
We'll get your statement ready for the shooting team.
We have to make another statement?
Yeah, but this one's for us,
just in case we need to defend you guys on this.
This is righteous shooting here, Frank.
We just got to make sure
so nothing can get twisted and come back on you guys.
You sound like you don't believe us.
Look, guys, after this happened, you sat down,
you talked about it, right?
You came up with a story that fit what you remembered.
Problem is, that's gonna sound too rehearsed.
Whenever there's a shooting,
there's things that you're not supposed to remember,
but you guys do because you sat down,
talked about it, and filled in the blanks.
You get me? Okay.
Okay. Yeah, sure. I mean, yeah, that makes sense.
You know, we did.
We talked about it, went over it,
you know, said it in our minds, so...
I thought we were supposed to have our stories straight.
Yeah, that's why we got to tear it apart.
Okay. Thanks, fellas.
Thanks.
Yeah, something's not right there.
You see the way Kaye
kept looking over at Kovinsky like that?
Yeah, like he's taking his cue.
Hey, fellas, one more thing...
You're not banging 'roids, are you?
What? No.
No. I'm all natural. I don't need that stuff.
Thanks, fellas.
Rabbi.
Is Tim still working drug squad?
You mind?
Thanks.
Not banging 'roids, my ass.
Well, Siobhan's due in a couple of months.
Tim, how many is that now?
Well, we got three girls already,
and this one coming is a girl.
Tim four girls.
Yeah, plus my wife and my partner Darby here...
I'm surrounded by women.
Oh. Have a seat.
You and Tim go back, huh?
Yeah. We did what...
Six, seven buys together when I was on the street?
Uniform's a little more uptown now, I guess, huh?
Yeah. Less chafing in the summer.
I get that, too.
So, I was just wondering...
Have you guys ever come across a couple of cops...
Kovinsky, Kaye?
They run a gym on 28th.
Well, we know the gym. Kovinsky owns it.
I don't know this guy Kaye. You know him?
Don't think so.
This about steroids?
Yeah, I think.
Can you tell me anything?
Well, we got a tip a while back
that, uh, a lot of users in there.
Just users?
Far as we know, yeah.
We got a dozen or so gyms just like it where guys are using.
But you've never actually gone into this one,
checked it out?
Let's just say it's at the bottom of our list.
Turns out a lot of cops go in there.
Nobody on our end wants to go after cops,
or else they would have gone into I.A.
We're not interested in the customers anyway, right?
Yeah, you want something a little higher up the food chain.
Yeah.
Turned out we, uh, found another place where bikers hang,
so we're gonna set up a few buys there,
see if we can't play tag with somebody
who will lead us to a supplier.
Where's this stuff coming from these days?
It's out of Eastern Europe.
Bikers mostly do the distributing.
There's a hell of a lot of money in it.
A lot of risk, too.
You know, the jail time for dealing juice
is the same as coke now.
Do you mind telling us why you're asking about all this?
Yeah, those two cops... Kovinsky, Kaye...
They got into a shootout in their parking lot.
Said they were chasing a car thief.
You think there's something wrong with their story?
I don't know... yet.
Well, I'll tell you this, Frank.
The word we got is that almost every cop in there is using,
if that helps any.
Yeah, it does.
Thanks.
I need help.
Can you help me?
Damn it, Deke. What did you come here for?
Just go away.
Look, I've been driving around all night,
I am bleeding all over the place,
and I got nowhere else to go.
Don't bleed all over my couch, Deke.
Hey, sweetie. It's Daddy.
Go finish your homework. Now.
What the hell happened to you? You need a hospital.
No. I can't go to a hospital.
You got any money? 'Cause you owe me child support.
Yeah, I got money.
Oh, man!
This really hurts. Come here.
Deke, you still got a bullet in there.
Okay.
So you were a medic in Afghanistan.
Take it out.
I mostly scraped guys out of Humvees.
Okay. Let me get my kit.
It's gonna hurt like hell.
You're gonna love that.
You're damn right I am.
You fired up?
Huh?
Just help me get this stuff put away, would you?
Yeah, yeah. In a minute.
Look, I want to keep the hormones
separate from the steroids. What for?
Just do like I ask, all right?
You've put us in a bad spot, you know that?
What do you mean? We finally make our own connection for our own supply,
we're about to make a hell of a lot more money,
and you go and turn a business meeting into a damn gunfight.
Hey, that guy needed a beatdown.
The only thing he understood was strength.
Let me give you some advice. Look at me.
Lay off the juice, okay?
We got our interviews with the shooting team coming up,
and you need to have your head screwed on straight.
You got me? You say we're protected,
but you're acting like you're whipped.
You know, I don't have time for this right now.
Frank Leo is on his way over here,
and I have to straighten out our stories.
What do you mean? What's wrong with our stories?
You, man! You're what's wrong with it!
That's what I'm trying to...
You had to bring up that we were shooting it out
with a drug dealer, and Frank Leo is not the type of guy
who's gonna forget that, okay?
So I'm not asking you again... I'm telling you...
Help me get this stuff out of here.
Cops doing steroids... Is that what I'm hearing?
Couple of guys... Kovinsky and Kaye...
Some kind of shootout?
What's going on? Where you getting that from?
Believe it or not, the mayor.
She's got ears in the drug squad now.
What do you mean, ears in the drug squad?
Mandatory drug testing for cops...
She's looking for ammunition.
Oh, is she back on that again?
The election's not for two years.
Well, she's getting an early jump.
Look, she knows you talked to a couple of guys at the drug squad
about cops and steroids.
In her mind, cops and drugs mean testing,
so, of course, her ears perked up.
Well, tell her she can unperk them.
I don't know how many times I have to tell you...
There's gonna be no mandatory drug testing of cops.
It's just a license for her to go on a fishing expedition.
Besides, you ever heard of right to privacy?
You know what?
Tell her this... If she agrees to mandatory drug testing
for all the brass and everybody down at City Hall,
including her, maybe I'll change my mind.
How does that sound?
It sounds like you're changing the subject.
We were talking about cops and steroid use.
My question is, what kind of ammunition does the mayor have
that I need to know about?
I checked on those two guys, Kovinsky and Kaye.
They've got solid records.
So that's what you tell the mayor... nothing to it.
Hi.
Can I help you?
I saw something you should know.
There you go.
Red-Iron Gym. Is that you?
Yeah. You like the name?
Took me like two weeks to come up with it.
A cop's salary is not very much.
How'd you put this together?
You mean where'd the money come from?
Yeah, where'd the money come from?
A bank loan, little seed money.
Tell you the truth, we're just breaking even now.
But you got to do what you love, right?
Why? You don't love being a cop?
Well, you got to have a life, too, though, don't you think?
Otherwise, can't do the job.
At least that's how I see it.
How many people in here are cops right now, you think?
Cops? I don't know.
Well, they're mostly cops, right?
Oh, could be. Depends on the day.
How many of them juiced up?
How should I know?
How long you been using?
I told you I don't use.
Really? Why not?
I mean, everybody else in here does.
Look, Kovinsky, I'm gonna ask you one more time...
What happened with the shooting in the parking lot?
And don't lie to me again. Don't do it.
All right.
Look, you want to know...
There was this biker guy coming in here,
selling the stuff, all right?
And I didn't like it. I mean, it's bad for business.
If all you got is guys pumping in here,
it's a limited clientele, right?
I'm trying to build this place up,
get some different kind of people in here...
Women giving yoga classes, boxing lessons for the kids...
Family-type stuff.
That's where the money's at, you know?
Anyway, I told this guy to come by that morning
before the gym opened,
and I told him I didn't want to see him around
and if I caught him here again, there was gonna be trouble.
And to make your point, you took him outside
and opened up on him? No.
I swear to God, Frank, he opened up on us,
just like we said.
What was his name?
I don't know. He didn't say.
Frank, can I have a word?
What's up?
I found a witness.
Who?
Bartender.
He said he was walking home from work, saw the whole thing.
How'd you find him?
Guy just walked into my office.
He just walked into your office, just like that?
Yeah. I know. Just like that.
What did he have to say?
Said it was just like these guys said it was...
Guy just started shooting at them in the parking lot.
We're being set up.
Yeah.
You told anybody else about our conversation?
No, just our duty sergeant.
You know, we got to keep him in the loop.
Why? Do you not want me to say anything?
No, it's fine.
That guy... over my shoulder, talking to Tommy...
You ever see him before?
Maybe. He looks familiar.
Bartender at Arly's.
Yeah, maybe that's where I saw him.
What's his story?
Walked in here, says he saw the shooting
that we were talking about.
Two cops at the gym? Yeah.
Why do I get the feeling you think he's bogus?
He's convenient. I'll tell you that much.
A witness pretty much gives them a walking
with the shooting team.
Exactly.
Which is why I think it's a setup.
Yeah? What do you think their game is?
Got to be the steroids.
You think they're dealing.
I don't know, but if they are,
I got to put a stop to it before a cop gets killed.
What are you gonna do?
Well, I think my way in with these guys is the shooting.
They screwed up their story.
Now they're trying to backtrack and make it make sense.
Now they're telling me that the shootout was with a biker
who was selling drugs at the gym...
Tried to put a stop to it.
They say they hit him.
There was blood at the scene, so that part's true.
Well, it's interesting.
I thought you'd like the part about the biker.
Bikers doing the distributing are who we're after.
There anything else on this guy?
Just that he didn't show up to any hospital,
so he's got to be out there, licking his wounds.
Man. I'd love to find him.
If he's hurting, maybe I could turn him.
Yeah, that was my thinking.
So what can I do to help?
I don't know.
I got to find out if Kaye and Kovinsky are dealing.
Okay, how about this?
I'll press one of these two cops,
see if I can get some more information on this biker...
How well they knew him, all that...
Helps you out and it helps me out.
I was hoping you'd say that.
Maybe if they get nervous enough,
one of them turns on the other.
So, which one do you think is most vulnerable?
Well, Kovinsky's top dog, so it's got to be Kaye.
Kaye it is, then.
Where's your partner, anyways?
Well, I've been calling, but all I get is the message,
which means I get the message... She's with her boyfriend.
Doesn't matter.
I'll go down there on my own, see what's what.
I'll let you know what I find out.
All right. Thanks.
Anything? I couldn't crack the guy.
He's sticking to his story like a hobo on a ham sandwich.
What did Tim say?
He's going to shake the juice tree
and see what monkey falls out.
Okay, I've been going over Kaye and Kovinsky's statements.
You know what's bothering me?
If somebody's shooting at you, what's your first instinct?
Take cover.
Kovinsky did. Kaye didn't.
He just stood there, shooting.
And he was firing all over the place.
Ah, the boys call it "pray and spray. "
Well, in this case, it was mostly pray.
He hit everything
except for what he was aiming at.
He's... He's not breathing properly when he shoots.
Where did you get that?
I was on the shooting team in university.
Really? Yeah.
Remember, I told you my grandfather was a cop, right?
Well, he used to take me to the firing range, and I loved it.
I'll show you my gun collection someday.
You have a gun collection.
Too bad you're our lawyer, 'cause I find that really hot.
All right, Miss Expert.
Anything else about this shooting bothering you?
You know, ballistics say
that Kovinsky only fired off one round.
Not for nothing, but if these guys were getting shot at,
you'd think he'd have been backing up his partner.
Maybe Kaye was out of control...
Kovinsky couldn't rein him in and just joined the party.
Oh, which reminds me... I heard the mayor on the radio.
She's going on again about this drug testing for cops.
Yeah, I know.
I don't know what it is with her and cops.
Why the hell doesn't she go after the firefighters?
They don't have testing. Oh, that's right.
They rescue little kitties from trees,
and they pose for calendars with their shirts off,
and they wash their shiny red fire trucks three times a day.
No, they don't have time for testing.
Wow. What's he got against firefighters?
It's a cop thing.
Saved my mother's house from burning down.
Did I ever tell you that?
Well, Madam Mayor,
Frank says he'll do it if you do it.
Guy certainly has a sense of humor.
I'll give him that.
Boy, can't you just see the brass...
Everyone at City Hall lining up to urinate
in those little plastic cups for drug testing?
The place would be empty in a week.
What else did he say?
Just that there was nothing to this steroid thing
that you heard about.
I doubt that. What do you think?
Well, it's a question of how widespread it is.
Right.
Well, you know, maybe this isn't the issue
I need to press him on for drug testing.
Yeah. If it was alcohol or cocaine,
you'd have a ready-made stigma attached, but this stuff...
Ed, you can create a stigma out of anything...
I mean, where there's smoke, there's always more smoke.
But I don't know.
Maybe this steroid thing blows up right in Frank's face
and he finally comes and knocks at my door, looking for a favor.
I mean, I'm open to negotiating,
but he barely says a word to me.
That's a cop thing.
Let the suspects do all the talking.
Eventually they hang themselves.
Oh, really? That's comforting.
You know, I do wonder sometimes how you let it get this far.
The man was Bridge Division's union rep with 200 members.
And suddenly he's got an army of 8,000.
Well, look at the plus side.
You wanted to weed out the old-boys' network in the ranks.
He's doing it for you, and you avoid the fallout.
Yeah, but cleaning up the department today
could lead to a crusade to clean out City Hall tomorrow.
Keep me in the loop.
Okay.
I just had a thought.
Maybe it's time to show Frank I've got a sense of humor, too.
Has he handed in his uniform and badge to you yet?
No, and he says he's not going to.
He feels he earned them.
Yeah, but that's theft of public property, isn't it?
Come on, Darby. Pick up.
You get that?
I'll get the message.
Come on, Darby. Answer your phone.
Shut up, Kovinsky.
Yeah, okay.
Message is this... I'm at that gym on 28th Street.
I'm gonna talk to this cop, Kaye.
He might have a lead on these bikers we're looking at,
and I want to check it out.
It's, um, 10 minutes to 11:00.
I'm gonna wait 20 minutes in case you want to be in on this.
When I got to the gym, nobody was awake yet.
Nobody was on the street, or I would have seen them.
So if this witness says he saw it go down,
he's got invisible powers.
No. He says he saw you pull into the parking lot
and gave a really good description,
right down to your shoes.
What does he got... a shoe fetish?
Who the hell notices that?
Yeah, we know. He's been coached.
Who called in the shots fired to begin with, anyways?
Jill said the call came from a cellphone, belongs to a hooker.
They talked to her.
She said she's in the alley near there with a john,
heard the shots.
The john drove them both out of there in his car.
She looked back for a second,
says she saw a pickup truck drive down the block.
But she didn't actually see who was shooting who.
So she says, yeah.
You guys were nearby on something?
Yeah, around the corner.
We've been interviewing the hookers over there,
looking for this girl who's robbing her johns.
So you've been there for a bit.
Notice any bikers hanging around,
maybe pimping some of the girls?
Yeah. There's one or two of them.
They see us. They take off.
You know any of their names?
Bosun.
A guy named Deke.
Bosun. You remember that guy.
Yeah. I don't remember this Deke guy.
Sure, you do.
Remember, we busted him one time for beating on his wife?
We found him under the bar.
He stuffed himself inside that beer cooler.
Yeah. Yeah, right.
That guy.
I didn't think Deke was running girls no more.
Yeah, no. He's just a good customer.
Deke and Bosun on bikes?
Bosun's got a bike.
Deke's got a pickup.
Deke's got a pickup, Tommy.
These cops... What are they into?
Juice.
Yeah. Figured when I saw them.
You know, most people think of steroids,
they see a guy stepping up to the plate.
They don't see a cop with a gun strapped to his hip
and a really bad attitude.
We were making money. Now what?
Don't worry about it.
Why are you talking to somebody else?
Yeah, okay. Message is this.
Oh, no.
Damn it.
What?
My partner's gone to see Kaye.
Hey, we're closed.
Are you Kaye?
The landlord said you'd be here.
Look, I'm busy, man. Can't you tell that I'm busy?
Go on. Get out of here.
I'm a cop. I'm with drug squad.
I need to talk to you.
We're protected, man.
Didn't you get the message? We're protected.
What are you talking about?
Leave me alone.
You've got no right coming in here.
Go on. Get out of here.
I'm here now.
Put it down.
Stop, Kaye!
Don't you do it. Put it down!
God, what have you done?
You're supposed to protect us!
Ohh!
I had no choice. I had to shoot him.
You did the right thing.
How's Tim? Any word?
I talked to his surgeon at the hospital.
They have him in what they're calling an induced coma.
They just don't know the extent of the damage.
Oh, God, I feel sick.
How's his wife?
Holding up as best she can.
You came here with Tim last night.
Is that right?
Yeah. He said he wanted to talk to this guy Kaye.
Did he call and tell you that?
Yeah, and then I hooked up with him.
Really?
He told me that you were busy with your boyfriend.
He was just gonna leave you out of it.
Hey, I still got the message on my phone.
You want to check it?
I mean, what are you trying to say here?
Just making sure you got your story right for I.A.
If I can rattle you, think what they can do.
Okay.
So, what happened when you went inside?
Kaye was pumping, we started to ask him some questions,
and he went off on us... I mean really went off.
'Roid rage. That's what I figure.
Yeah, the guy was totally crazy.
Yeah. I've seen it before. It's worse than coke.
You, um, you ever come across a biker named Deke?
Doesn't send off any alarms, no.
Just give me a second, will you?
Yeah.
You see what you did?
What you talking about?
Tim's a friend of mine. I was at his wedding.
I've been to his house for dinner
with his wife and his little girls,
and now, because of you, he could end up dead.
You understand?
Hey, look, I feel bad about what happened to Tim,
but he's still alive.
And if you didn't notice, that's my partner lying dead in there.
Oh, yeah? Whose fault is that?
Oh, you gonna blame that on me, too?
Yeah, I am, 'cause he's dead
because of whatever the hell it was you two were up to.
Now, you gonna tell me about it? I'm not gonna tell you anything.
You know what, Kovinsky?
I am gonna bury you.
This is finished.
You run your mouth all you want, Frank,
but you're not a cop anymore, remember?
Me... I'm still a cop.
So you come around me again,
and I'm gonna have you on your knees in handcuffs.
Got that? Don't. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Don't do it. Frank.
You know why Tim was here last night?
'Cause I told him about the biker that those guys wounded.
I was using it as bait... get him to put leverage on Kaye.
He was here because of me.
This is my fault.
104.
Damn it, Deke, I got to take you to a hospital.
No. No hospital.
You're not dying on my couch.
I'm gonna kill you if you die on this couch.
That's not funny.
Okay, this is what happens when you make deals with cops.
What was I gonna do, huh?
This drug cop, Darby, busted me.
But then she has a proposition to make it all go away.
I get her a bulk supply of steroids and hormones
for these two cops to sell at this gym.
I mean, they're cops, right?
I thought the deal was protected.
This is exactly why we're not together anymore.
You have no common sense.
Yeah. I heard that before.
You got any more of those pills?
No, Deke.
They were all I had left over after my root canal.
Look, I got to go pick up Spirit from daycare.
Hey, look.
When we were together, the way I was with you...
It's just me, right?
It's just the way I am.
I got a mean streak, hmm?
You saying you're sorry?
This ain't a confession.
You got a mean streak yourself.
I hear Tim is in a coma.
I'm sorry.
Talked to his wife.
She's pregnant and due in a coupleonths.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
Did you talk to his partner?
Yeah. I took her down to I.A. Why?
She says she was with Tim when they went and saw Kaye.
I talked to Tim. He said he couldn't get ahold of her.
He was gonna go alone.
So maybe they met up later.
Well, she's pretty upset about her partner.
That part's genuine.
I know.
Sergeant Kantor's here.
Send him in.
Okay if I leave early?
I've got to go to a meeting with my sponsor.
Sure.
Just go see your dad when you're done.
He called me. You haven't seen him in a week.
I know.
He's always looking at me like I've done something wrong.
He's an ex-cop, and you have done something wrong.
I'm gonna go make him dinner on Sunday.
You're gonna go see him tonight,
and you're gonna make him dinner on Sunday.
This guy was all drugged out.
Goes up on a bridge, climbs over the railing.
He's gonna jump.
Your dad sees him, runs to him, grabs him by the collar.
The guy lets go.
Your dad almost goes over.
There's your dad, holding this guy by the shirt,
and his other hand on the railing.
He holds the guy for almost half an hour,
hanging off this bridge.
Firefighters show up, pull them both back.
That's your father.
I didn't know about that.
He never talks about the job.
Maybe you don't ask the right questions.
I'll go see him. I promise.
So...
Firefighters rescued him.
Guess they do do some good after all.
Yeah, when they're not playing hoops or working out
or whatever it is the hell they do.
Do you want to explain this fireman/cop thing to me?
The firefighters in this city
never have their budget questioned.
We fight for every damn nickel.
So blame the mayor.
I do blame the mayor.
Look, if you think cops bad-mouth firefighters,
you should hear what they say about us.
This isn't personal.
I have a lot of friends who are firefighters.
You see Tommy?
He's, uh, out looking for their witness.
He's gonna take another crack at him.
Hey. Remember me?
You and I are gonna have a nice, little honest conversation.
Whatever you say, okay?
That cop gave you money.
Was that payment for lying to us
about seeing the shooting at the gym?
No. She already paid me for that.
This was for helping her find
where this Deke guy's holed up at.
And where is that? Do you know?
Not yet I don't.
You want to pour me one of those?
Get a glass.
What are you gonna do?
I am gonna go tear apart the financials for the gym.
The seed money had to come from somewhere.
It's nice to see you, Rabbi.
Rough about Tim.
Yeah.
You remember this biker, Deke?
Busted him once for beating on his wife?
Yeah, I remember him.
I think he's providing steroids to these two cops
who run a gym over on 28th.
I'll look into what we've got on him, let you know.
Thanks.
You know, this whole thing with steroids and cops,
it's the elephant in the room.
You know, the mayor's on me
for mandatory drug testing for cops again.
Yeah. Speaking of the mayor, that's why I came.
Got a warrant here for your arrest.
Well, why the hell didn't you just let Kaye finish him?
Tim's got a family.
His wife's pregnant, for God's sake.
Okay. Look, I'm sorry for them.
Okay? I am.
But we don't know what Kaye said to him.
Now, what if Tim wakes up? What if he knows something?
Yeah, I know. I know... It's a problem.
What about this Deke character?
I'll handle Deke. I think I know where he is.
His ex-wife was a medic in the Army.
He might have gone to her place.
Okay.
What about your partner?
Don't you touch him.
You understand?
Hey, it's us or him.
Let's just...
Let's see what happens first, okay?
Please?
He was my partner. I love the guy, you know?
But you love us more, though, right?
Right?
Hey.
Not as much as you love us, though, right?
Yeah.
Of course.
Thought you were under arrest.
I am.
Frank failed to return his uniform.
That's theft of public property.
Let me see the warrant.
Well, clearly, this is wrong.
This is for Francis Leonetti.
Guess you're free to go, Frank.
Mayor's warped sense of humor...
Just trying to send me a message.
Well, why doesn't she call up and make an appointment,
like everybody else?
The witness these cops came up with...
Guess who he's a C.I. for.
Tim's partner on the drug squad, Darby.
Did you talk to him? Yeah.
He told me Darby's looking for this guy Deke.
She paid him to help her find him.
Do we know where Darby is?
I checked with her duty sergeant.
He hasn't seen her all day.
Hello?
Whoa, whoa, Siobhan.
Hey, hey, hey. Calm down. Slow down. What?
What happened?
You're kidding me.
No, no, no. Stay there. I will deal with this.
What the hell do you think you were doing?
A cop kills another cop, Frank.
What the hell do you think I was doing?
We have to get a statement from him as soon as we can.
He's in really bad shape. Anybody tell you that?
No. I didn't find that out till I got there.
Anyway, I thought you ought to know this cop Kovinsky,
the guy you're looking at for steroids...
What about him?
He was at the hospital, too.
He was trying to get in to see Tim.
Really?
Yeah. He was pissed he couldn't get in.
I don't think he expected
to see all those drug cops there, either.
Did he stick around, or did he leave?
I left. I don't know.
Got the mayor's message she sent.
She got another one for you.
If we had drug testing,
this thing that happened to Tim never would have happened.
Listen, Frank, uh, if there's anything I can do
for the family, anything at all...
Yeah, you're just looking for a way to smooth things over.
I got bigger problems than your lack of etiquette.
Hang on a second. Tommy.
You can forget about your statement.
What do you mean?
Tim just died.
I know, Siobhan. I know.
I'm really sorry to ask this.
Look, I know it's hard.
It's only gonna be for a couple hours.
It's really gonna help us get the people responsible for this.
Okay. Thank you.
Look, is there anything you need?
Okay.
She says it's okay.
Nobody has to know Tim's dead.
I just talked to the hospital.
They're on board with it, too.
Okay. Let's get this thing started.
Hey, Deke.
Where's your gun?
My ex-wife took it.
She doesn't like guns.
You know, I'm real sorry about this,
but I can't have you out there, talking about me.
Hold it right there, Darby. Let's have the gun.
Oh, man, I knew it.
You were gonna shoot me, hmm? For what?
Shut up, Deke.
Look, okay, you want the whole drug thing?
I'll give it to you.
I want a whole lot more than that.
Want me to spot that for you?
What are you doing here?
Thought I told you not to come around here anymore.
Yeah, I know.
I just thought maybe you'd like to hear it from me.
Tim woke up.
Yeah?
That's good. That's great.
Oh, so you care now.
Yeah, I care.
It was my partner that did that to him.
I feel bad about it.
Yeah, I heard you went down to the hospital.
Bringing him flowers?
Yeah. I went down there to show my support.
But his buddies from drug squad wouldn't let me in.
They told me the doctor said he wasn't gonna make it, so...
I'm glad to hear he's doing okay.
Hmm.
So, you're... you're not worried that he woke up?
No, I'm not. Why should I be?
Well, you know, he's gonna tell us what really happened in here,
maybe what Kaye said to him.
'Cause Kaye didn't tell him anything...
I know that 'cause I talked to Tim's partner.
What's her name? Uh, Darby.
She was with him.
She said Kaye just went at him, so...
Mm. Oh, she wasn't with him.
Well, not for the whole time, at least.
Tim said he couldn't get ahold of her.
She was out with her boyfriend.
Which is you.
And that witness that you guys have...
That was Darby's C.I.
The seed money for this place... Darby as well.
Why don't you just get out of here, man?
If you had something on me, you would have used it by now.
Stop wasting my time.
I got other stuff to do.
Yeah, hi.
I'm, uh, inquiring about a patient
that was brought in there last night.
He's a cop.
Uh-huh.
When did he get out of intensive care?
So he's doing all right, then?
Thanks a lot. That's great.
Hey. Where you been?
I was trying to call you.
Don't tell me you've been banging that stuff tonight.
What? Yeah. So what?
Where were you?
I thought I saw Frank Leo leaving.
What did he have to say? Nothing.
Just trying to wind me up, you know?
I'm gonna get him someday.
He needs a lesson, and I can't wait.
Hey, uh, did you take care of Deke?
You mean did I kill him?
Yeah. Did you kill him?
I told you I'd take care of him, didn't I?
Okay. Well, good.
We got a bigger problem now... Tim woke up.
Yeah. I just talked to the hospital.
They said he's gonna be fine.
We should have took care of him, like I said.
What are we gonna do now? What are we gonna do?
You went over there to do that, to take care of him, didn't you?
You went to the hospital, right?
No.
Who told you that?
The guys in the drug squad. We work together.
They're all friends of mine.
You were gonna kill him.
Come here.
Just... It's okay. Come here.
Look, can we... can we just talk about this, please?
What is the matter with you?
I'm worried about Tim.
What if he does know something?
Yeah, that's what I've been trying to tell you.
Okay. So maybe you're right.
So, how are you gonna get to him?
Don't worry.
Don't worry about it. I got it all figured out.
It's okay.
So you... you were gonna kill him.
Just... Just tell me, okay?
Just... Just tell me.
Why do you keep asking me that?
Are you wearing a wire? No!
Are you wired right now? No, I'm not wearing a wire!
Are you wired right now? No, I'm not!
Are you? I'm not wearing a wire!
Are you wearing a wire?
Man, you're losing it.
Well, you keep asking me that question, Darby.
What am I supposed to think, huh?
I'm just... I'm worried about Tim, okay?
I told you... He has to be taken care of,
and I want to make sure that you have the guts
to do it this time.
I do.
It's okay. Don't worry. I got it this time.
So, what happened the first time?
I went over there.
I was just gonna... You know, I was gonna unplug him
or stick a pillow over his face or something...
You know, whatever was handy, whatever was in the room.
So, you were gonna kill him, but it didn't work out?
Yeah, I went there to kill him.
What do you think... I was gonna give him some flowers?
We got him.
Hey, where'd you put the bug, anyway?
Under the bench.
Be careful. He's all juiced up.
You coming in?
No. Didn't you hear? I'm not a cop anymore.
Okay. Let's go.
