One sec, guys.
Let me bring you up to speed, detectives.
Doctor comes out of the theater,
Gives the valet his parking ticket,
Valet looks for the keys, finds the keys are gone.
And so is the doctor's car.
Yeah, exactly.
You run a description of the car out to everybody?
Yeah, first thing. All right.
Why don't you run the valet
And make sure he's not part of this thing? Okay.
Same deal as last night and last week --
Distract the valet somewhere,
Grabs the car keys, steal the car.
All right, let's go talk to the doctor.
Go ahead. I'll be right there.
All units, please be on the lookout
For a stolen high-end black S.U.V. --
Tags alpha, Yankee, Zulu, papa, 3-5-3.
I repeat -- tags alpha, Yankee, Zulu, papa, 3-5-3.
Over.
Hey, Detective.
The valet wants to talk to you.
Deena says she's down at the school
Because Joey got into a fight.
"a fight." he's 7.
Yeah, you believe it?
Anyway, I get there, Joey's got this cut on his lip,
And the principal's talking about suspending him.
I get Joey's side of the story.
It turns out he's just helping out some kid who got pounded on.
The principal doesn't believe him.
Said he's always questioning authority.
Same as me when I was his age.
Doesn't take crap from anybody.
Yeah, it's like he's got the strong sense of justice, you know?
Anyway, Deena and I are leaving,
Get into the parking lot there
Where the principal's car is parked.
Turns out, he's got a broken taillight.
No kidding?
All right, it wasn't exactly broken.
I'm just foreseeing into his future, you know?
Do you see what I see?
That's our stolen vehicle. Let's go.
Just sit tight a minute.
Pull your vehicle over!
Yeah, it's me.
Man, you're supposed to be behind me, man. Where are you?
Put your hands out the window!
The cops just pulled me over. Let me see your hands!
South street and Lowney, man. Put your hands out the window!
Open the car door from the outside and step out!
It's just two guys, man. Both got guns, man. Hurry up.
- Turn your face to me! - He's got a Bluetooth!
He's on the phone! Stop talking. Get off the phone!
No!
Aziz, you okay?
Oh, no. No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no! No, Aziz! No!

Aziz has got a wife and a kid.
I...I think he just turned 7.
I know. I was at his birthday.
So, the car thief calls for reinforcements.
Yeah.
The guy was on his cellphone.
We got a description --
Gang tats, three nines linked across his neck.
I'll put in a call with gang squad,
See if they can help us out on this.
From car thieves to murdering one of us --
These guys got a death wish.
Where's Mac? Where's his partner?
I.A. Grabbed him.
You're kidding.
What?!
I thought we had a rule --
Nobody could talk to us for 24 hours.
You said that Aziz was behind the vehicle passenger side, right?
Yeah, that's what I just said.
Well, that's not what we heard.
You told the first uniform on the scene
That Aziz was behind you.
No, I meant that he was --
He was behind the car on the other side.
So how does it happen he's got cover
But he's the one who ends up shot?
Yeah, I forgot that part.
The stolen car took off right away.
You didn't ask the driver to step out of the vehicle?
Yeah, but then Aziz noticed he was on the -- the Bluetooth,
And we were trying to deal with that.
But if you'd made the driver get out,
He couldn't have driven away, exposing your partner.
You don't understand -- everything just happened,
One thing after the other.
Doesn't excuse the fact that you got your partner killed.
What, you guys didn't get the message?
Oh, you mean how you're gonna get I. A. All promoted to white shirts,
Kick us out of the police union?
No, the message that I'm gonna kick your ass if you keep this up.
Take it up with the chief.
He's the one pushing us to interview cops
Immediately after an incident.
These are my guys, not the chief's. Get the hell out.
Take it up with the chief. We still got questions, and we're gonna get answers.
Do you really want to die on this hill today, Carillo?
Don't make us come looking for you.
Mother...
You okay?
They shot him, Frank. For what -- a lousy car?
I know. The car thief had gang tats.
I got friends in gang squad. I'm gonna reach out.
No, you're not.
You're gonna get yourself together,
You're gonna go for counseling --
I'm setting it up -- and you're gonna go, you understand?
Yeah, I'll go, but we're gonna get these guys, right?
Mac, of course we are.
I've got every cop in the city on it.
I find them, I'll kill them all myself.
Mac, what did I just say?
You got to set that aside. You need to go to Deena.
That's what Aziz would want.
Does she know yet?
No.
I thought you'd want to tell her.
Okay. Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
Deena comes first.
All right. Let's get you cleaned up.
No, I'm good. Let's -- let's just go do this.
Mac...
Look at your hands.
You've got Aziz's blood all over you.
Let's get you cleaned up.
You and Tommy were together over 10 years, right?
Yeah.
Still partners.
You know I'm an alcoholic, right?
I started drinking when I was 10.
Both my parents were drunks.
I was clean when I went into the academy,
And I was sober after that for 10 years.
Anyway, when my...
My wife left me, I started drinking again.
Deena and Aziz took me in.
This is how I get to pay her b-- back?
By getting her husband k-killed.
Hey, Mac, come on.
That's just I.A. Getting in your head, okay?
You didn't do anything wrong. Look at me.
You didn't do anything wrong.
Why can't I feel that way?
You will.
It just takes time.
Look...
It's gonna mean the world to her
That it's you coming to talk to her about it.
Yeah.
Let's go.
♪ amazing grace ♪
♪ how sweet ♪
♪ the sound ♪
♪ that saved a wretch ♪
♪ like me-e-e-e ♪
When I was seargent at Bridge division,
I had to give the bad news
To more cops' wives than I'd like to remember.
Yeah.
It's a good thing that Deena's got that kid to think about.
What about Mac?
Mac's not good.
He's got that thousand-yard stare going, you know?
Yeah, well...
You lose a partner, first thing, you blame yourself.
Put grief and guilt together,
And it's a short walk to getting payback.
I think my date is here.
I'll go out the back.
Thanks for doing this.
The place is yours for whatever you want!
I don't need to know about it.
Oh, this is rabbi's cop bar, hmm?
Imagine that peephole is to keep I.A. Out of here.
No, they don't come down here.
Ah, probably afraid they wouldn't get out alive.
Yeah, they probably wouldn't.
Do you want a drink?
Yeah, sure.
Bourbon, neat.
So what's this about?
I want to know why the hell you're pushing the 24-hour rule.
'cause sometimes, Frank,
The only way to get your attention is to piss you off.
Yeah, well, ed, right now,
I don't have time to play games with you.
There's a cop killer out there I need to find.
So what do you want?
Those cops who were running that escort service --
They had a list of clients --
Some very powerful people.
I can use those names for leverage, so I want in.
As usual, your strategy's not gonna work.
You know, by pushing the 24-hour rule,
I'm doing you a favor, right?
You're doing me a favor?
The Attorney General knows that you want 48 hours
Before a cop can be questioned,
But he's not gonna change the police act.
So every time the rule gets abused,
You get ammunition to use against him.
Well, that's cold comfort 'cause that cop who just died --
His partner's a basket case right now.
And rather than dealing with it,
He's getting interrogated by I.A.
So how the hell is this gonna help him?
Makes it easier on the next guy
When you get what you want from the Attorney General.
And you get what you want from me.
Three names off the list, and I'll tell I.A. To back off.
One name, and I.A. Doesn't back off.
You put the brakes on them.
Then make it count.
Squeaky-clean guy who's being groomed
To take a run at the Attorney General's job.
Oh, the Mayor's brother-in-law, Mr. God, is on my side?
You're kidding.
I've got times, dates, places, girls.
Once he enters the race...
Yeah, I have some serious bargaining power with the Mayor.
Oh, and that reminds me --
She says she's ready to meet when you are.
Well, tell her to expect my call.
Tell rabbi to get some top-shelf in here.
That stuff tastes like dishwater.
Who was the shooter?!
Who shot my partner?!
Huh? What?!
Come here!
I'm not stopping till you tell me
Who killed my partner!
Come here!
Are you gonna tell me something now?
Man, I don't know anything!
I didn't steal no car!
I spent all morning on the phone
With the Attorney General's office.
He's refusing to meet with you. Really?
He's still pissed we stopped him from bringing in the feds
To take over the police department.
That, and he's testing your power.
He wants to see how far you're gonna go.
Hey, Billy. Okay, here's what we got.
Gang squad ran the tats on that car thief
And came up with a name -- Sydel Lester.
They call him blue.
Yeah, this guy's been in and out of jail since he was 14.
Any idea where he is? No.
He finished parole a year ago.
Since then, he dropped out of sight.
Known associates, relatives?
So far, nothing.
We looked to see if there were any credit-card
Or house bills in his name -- another dead end.
Well, we know he's got a cellphone.
Yeah, and that was either a throwaway
Or it's not in his name.
The cars these guys are stealing --
They're high-end, right? Yeah.
Which means they're probably not moving them through chop shops.
Most likely, they're taking the boat ride
To Nigeria or eastern Europe.
Well, we still need to reach out
To some of these chop shops -- see who knows what.
Yeah. Call that guy, Mason, and that other guy --
What's his name? -- Guzman.
There isn't a car stolen in this city
Those guys don't know about.
There's one more thing, Frank.
Mac showed up drunk to gang squad last night.
He was looking for an I.D., too.
They told him, "go home, get some sleep."
He told them, go to hell -- he'd find out his own way.
His partner's been dead 24 hours.
He's already lost his mind.
Yeah, it gets worse.
A couple hours later,
He beat the hell out of a gang member in an alley.
Patrol cop picked him up, took him home.
Cop didn't report it,
But everybody knows about what happened.
All right.
You get a line on this blue guy, I want to be there.
You got it. Thanks, Billy.
This ain't good, Frank.
Mac's a loose cannon out there.
If he finds blue, he's probably just gonna shoot him dead.
Call his duty sergeant, call the guys he works with.
Somebody somewhere's got to know where the hell he is.
What are you gonna do?
I'm gonna put an anchor on him.
Yeah, get me Harris at I.A.
Let me get this straight --
You want us to recommend Mac be suspended?
- Yeah. - Well, we'd do that,
But we got orders this morning from the chief
To lay off him and every other cop out there.
You've already interrogated him. Use that.
The trouble is... we were fishing.
We didn't really have anything on him yet.
Since when has that stopped you guys
From railroading an innocent cop?
Is there something about Mac we should know?
Just need him out of circulation for a while.
What's in it for us?
Remember those cops we busted running that escort ring?
They had a list of clients.
I have that list.
Any cops we might be interested in? No cops.
Mayor's brother-in-law.
He's running for the Attorney General job.
He gets it, you have something on him.
Use it as you like.
All right, we'll recommend a suspension.
With pay.
Where are these car thieves getting their Vin numbers?
I don't chop cars anymore. Quit lying to me.
I ain't lying. I told the cops the same thing.
10 grand if you give me a name.
Make it 100 grand. I don't know anything.
I chop cars, I don't steal them.
Why would I know anything about these guys?
Mason, these guys shot a cop. You understand that, right?
Now, they're all gonna get payback.
And if I find out you're lying to me,
I'm gonna put you on that list.
I already talked to the cops about this.
And you ain't a cop anymore.
Go to hell.
♪ out of my heart and out of my head ♪
The guys have been buying him drinks.
I told him I wasn't gonna serve him anymore.
Call him a cab.
Hey, fellas.
Thanks. Yeah.
Looks like you need to call your sponsor.
Yeah, I did. He wasn't thirsty.
You believe in justice, right, Frank?
Justice or revenge?
Same thing to the victims.
You know what, Mac?
You need to get off that train right now.
You beat the hell out of a guy last night.
Do you even remember doing that?
Yeah, it was worth it.
I got the name of the car thief. They call him blue.
Yeah, well, you wasted a good tune-up.
We already know about blue.
You realize what you did last night?
Do you even have a clue?
You could've thrown it all away, right then and there --
All the years you've put in,
Your badge, your pension.
I don't care!
I-I-I don't care about that stuff, Frank.
What happens to me doesn't matter.
Aziz -- Aziz was worth a hundred of me, man.
You know what? Give me a break. He was not.
He was a cop, just like you --
No better, no worse.
The difference between him and you
Is he's dead and you're alive.
And this, this crap you're doing, dishonors him!
It dishonors him!
You're right.
I got to sober up. I got a shift in a couple hours.
No, you don't. You're suspended.
Why?
You said I didn't do anything wrong.
Look, I.A.'s just trying to railroad you, okay?
It's just temporary.
You need to step back.
I need to go to work, Frank.
That's the best thing for me.
I know. I agree, Mac. I really do, but not right now.
A couple of weeks.
You know what you really need to do right now?
You need to go see Deena.
Imagine what she's going through.
She's got the funeral, she's got that kid,
A million other things going on.
I should've remembered.
Yeah, well, you remembered now.
Cab's here.
Look, cab's gonna take you to division,
You're gonna turn in your badge,
You're gonna turn in your gun, okay?
Just temporary.
Yeah. Okay.
Okay.
Jill, what's happening?
Which one?
It's that black car,
Right down the block, down there.
How do you know it's blue's?
Lee had a c.I. That gave him up --
Said he parked it there.
Billy and Lee around?
Yeah, yeah. They're down --
Down at the end of the block.
We figured he's in one of these houses,
So we set off the car alarm, he comes out,
We get him when he comes outside.
Hmm, so the car thief becomes the victim of a car thief?
And then, uh, how about you and I
Get really drunk and really naked?
Man, is that a good idea.
Would you like to do the honors?
I'd love to.
Man, car alarms -- I hate that sound.
See if we can get him to come back out.
That's it. Somebody's trying to steal your car.
Go, go. Go, go, go, go, go.
What the hell?
Blue!
Mac, don't shoot him! Don't shoot him, Mac!
Mac, don't do it!
Get on your knees, blue!
Blue, I got a --
I got a gun!
All right, all right, man, don't shoot! Don't shoot, man!
Don't shoot! Don't shoot! Mac, back off!
You -- down -- down on your knees!
Do you remember me?!
You got him.
You remember me, blue?!
Jill, get the phone, get the phone.
All right, you got him. You got him, you got him.
All right, man! Y'all be careful with that, man!
That's solid gold -- cost me a lot of money, yo!
You killed my partner, man. You're done!
Get out of my face, man!
I can smell you!
Huh?! Like that?!
What the hell is wrong with you?
I'm gonna sue your ass for that, man!
Oh, yeah? I'm gonna sue your ass!
You're the one that's done!
What the hell's wrong with you?
I thought you were going home.
I got to division, one of my c.I.S calls.
Tells me blue's at his girlfriend's place,
Gives me the address.
I pull into the street,
I see blue coming out of the house.
I didn't know you guys were here.
You screwed this up big-time.
I'm already on suspension, right?
What more can they do to me?
You have no idea.
Stand here.
I'm gonna sue your ass, you drunk!
Okay, Mac wasn't here tonight, all right?
Oh, Frank. Frank, no, man. It's too late for that.
Come here.
***
He didn't say anything. Then his lawyer showed up.
Anything on his cellphone?
It's registered to his girlfriend's name.
They ran the numbers.
The one that blue called when he got pulled over
Was to a throwaway cellphone.
It's at the bottom of a dumpster by now.
So they have nothing that connects the stolen car
To the shooting. Right.
And his lawyer's gonna argue
That it's a separate incident -- not related.
Hey, rabbi.
Yeah -- Mac. I know, you heard.
Listen, I want you to get a few of the guys.
I want to babysit him.
Around the clock.
Thanks, rabbi.
At least I'll know where he is.
You know, Frank, Mac's only doing what I'd do for you
And what you'd do for me, right?
So no matter what you say to him,
On some level, he knows that gives him permission.
You just make that up?
Dostoyevsky.
Anyway, I got to get home. The wife's gonna be wondering.
He's right, you know. You would do the same thing.
Anybody would.
I wouldn't.
If we ever get that close and something happens to you,
Don't expect me to pull out my nine
And start blasting people away, okay? Wow.
That's kind of hot.
You...
Pulling out your nine and...
...Blasting away.
Why do you always get so hot when I talk about my guns?
Hmm.
You ever worry that I'm gonna get shot?
You mean when you're out there being a cop
And you're not a cop anymore?
Yeah.
Investigation's part of my job.
Does it bother you?
I'm not your wife, Frank.
I don't wake up every morning
Wondering if you're gonna get hurt, okay?
Good.
I couldn't be out there doing what I do
If I had to worry that you were worrying about me.
Good, 'cause I don't.
You know...
A little bit of worrying from time to time
Might actually be nice.
I got to get going.
So, are you gonna come over tonight,
Or are you gonna go to Jill's?
What?
You're sleeping with her, right?
Where the hell did you get that idea?
It's okay if you are. I just...Like to know.
If that's how things are gonna go between us,
Maybe I'll... Keep my options open.
I'm not sleeping with Jill.
If you decide to come over later...
Now you have a key.
Yeah, two guys took Mac to a.A. This morning.
Two other guys picked him up, took him for breakfast, fed him.
They said he's doing all right, all things considered.
Well, I hope so.
Blue made bail.
What? Oh, you got to be kidding me.
He's implicated in the murder of a cop.
Well, they cut a deal.
They don't contest bail,
And the defense doesn't bring up that Mac was there last night,
At least until trial.
Mac's gonna find out about this.
Yeah. Who's on him now?
Billy. So that's good.
Listen, I got to call you back. All right.
Madam Mayor.
Missed you at the last city council meeting.
Oh, yeah? How was it? Dull.
You and I may butt heads,
But at least you're entertaining.
You know, I was kind of hoping
We were gonna meet in some smoke-filled back room,
More in keeping with the, uh, political intrigue of this,
Don't you think?
See, I prefer up close and personal.
That way, I can tell if you're lying to me or not.
Oh, I see.
Not that I mind the backseat.
It does remind me of my first time.
Backseat of a limo?
Senior prom.
Hmm.
Anyway, I think the best part of that
Was the danger of possibly getting caught.
I do hope this is gonna be more satisfying.
Well, my experience is you get what you give.
Okay, well, why don't I make the first move, then?
I'm willing to offer you 50 more officers.
I want 500. Really?
Oh, I'm sure you do.
After all those promises you made
To get yourself elected --
More dues to pay the piper with, huh?
Well, it's not like the city couldn't use more cops.
No, I know. We could.
It's just how to pay for them that's the problem.
Uh, see, I think you know exactly how to pay for them.
Do I?
Well, the city's committed over a billion dollars
To housing projects.
Now, that's a deep, deep well that you can dip into.
Frank, it's not that simple. I have commitments to consider.
You mean kickbacks to the people
That are backing the public-housing projects.
So what are you suggesting, then --
That everybody kick back a little more?
Call it a cop tax.
You know, I could maybe make that work
For, say, another 200.
But I am gonna have to hear your gesture of good faith.
All right, how about this?
Your brother-in-law is running for Attorney General.
If I was you, I'd keep him out of the race.
Why would I want to do that?
A little while back,
We busted some cops running a prostitution ring.
They had a list of clients.
Guess whose name was on that list.
What a complete idiot.
Chief Wycoff knows about his penchant for hookers, as well.
He's probably gonna try and use that against you.
Satisfied?
Come on, Frank.
You know a girl's never completely satisfied
Her first time.
All right, what else do you want?
Since you brought up the election --
What's it gonna take to get the police union to back me?
Start with this.
Get me a meeting with the Attorney General.
I call his office, I get shut down.
There, that's his private number.
It's not even in his name, so you'd never find it.
Satisfied?
When I'm satisfied...
You'll know.
It's Frank Leo.
Frank Leo? How did you get this number?
That's not important. Let me ask you a question.
You're running for re-election.
Do you really want a public war
With the police union right now?
Maybe that's a war I can win.
Don't tempt me.
The easiest way to knock somebody off-balance
Is when they dig in their heels.
The same goes for you, Frank.
You know Claudio's?
No, but I'll find it.
Lunch. Say two weeks, Monday.
And just you and me, okay?
My advice -- just deal with him the way I do.
Give him enough rope and hope he hangs himself.
No, I can't wait for that.
I'm Attorney General, he calls me,
Threatens me on the phone?
He's gaining too much power.
He's got to be brought under control.
It has to be now.
I should go see about the catering
For after the funeral, all right?
Then, uh, after, we can go to the wake
The guys are having at rabbi's, okay?
Yeah, no problem. I'll be right here.
You know, we had a wake when we buried my leg.
Buried your leg? Yeah.
It was my wife's idea. We buried it in the backyard.
She's all about the ceremonies, you know?
She's got one for every occasion.
Sláinte.
I'm hearing our guys have been busting heads all day.
Nobody's letting go of this thing with Aziz
Without spilling some blood.
I'll be right back.
Hey.
Who's that girl with Tommy?
That's Larissa.
When you guys busted those cops running that escort ring,
She was one of the Russian girls
That Tommy was driving to her dates.
How do you know who she is?
Tommy asked me to give her some legal advice.
So are they just friends or what?
Does it matter?
Can I have another one?
So, um...
Myself, Tommy, Mac, and Aziz
Are, uh, doing rounds in the projects one day.
And all of a sudden, this old guy comes rushing up to us,
And he's freaking out.
"I've lost my dog! I can't find my dog!
"I think it may have been stolen!
What do I do? Can you help me?"
And Aziz very seriously steps in front of me.
He says, "okay, you know what, sir?
"what we're gonna do is,
"I'm gonna draw a composite of your dog.
"you're gonna describe it to me,
"and we're gonna get everybody on it.
"we're gonna pass this around, we're gonna go door to door,
We're gonna find your dog."
So he grabs his pad of paper, and he grabs his pencil,
And he says, "sir, if you'd please
"just describe your dog to me.
Uh, how many legs does your dog have?"
The old guy says, "it's a dog.
It's got four legs."
He says, "okay, so, uh, dog, fine.
So, uh, fur?"
hey, blue.
Remember me?
He says, "okay, just one more question, sir.
Bitch or son of a bitch?"
Get off me, man!
So he finishes the drawing and looks at it for a second,
Makes a little adjustment.
He says, "uh, sir, is this your dog?"
And I swear to you,
The picture is a spitting image of the old man.
You can't do this, man!
And the old man says, "but that's me."
"well, how about that for fast police work, huh?
We found him!"
I ain't telling you nothing, man.
You can kill me --
I still ain't talking!
Ohh!
Yeah, you know what?
You guys laughing is probably
The, uh, the best toast I could give, so...
I'm gonna leave it at that.
To Aziz.
To Aziz!
What's up?
I lost him.
Tommy!
Thanks, Billy.
Blue didn't show up at his girlfriend's,
And Mac's nowhere to be found.
Hey, you know what? I just thought of something.
What about Mac's cellphone?
Good idea.
Tiny, it's Frank. I need a trace on a cellphone.
No, tiny, I'm not a cop anymore.
Of course I don't have a warrant -- it's for Mac.
Yeah. 555-0134.
How long?
Thanks.
He says it depends on the phone
And whether the guy's using it or not.
So let's see if Mac's taking calls.
I'm gonna ask you one more time, blue.
Who was the shooter?
Man, I told you, man. I don't know.
We can do this all night, blue.
Mac, it's Frank. Look, I know what you want to do.
If it was Tommy, I would want to do the exact same thing.
You want to kill these guys, let me help you.
Just give me a call.
That's that. Any other ideas?
Yeah.
We find the shooters,
And that ends this thing, and Mac comes home.
Okay.
Did we ever find out which chop shop
Was selling blue the Vin numbers for the stolen cars?
I talked to those guys. They wouldn't give up anything.
Well, maybe it's time we draw a little blood
For Aziz ourselves.
Huh?
Ooh, you don't look good.
You ready to talk to me?
I ain't telling you nothin', man.
I ain't telling you nothin', man!
Punk!
Aah!
I told you -- I don't know any--
You know. Now, let's hear it.
No.
Hey, come on.
I said I don't know any-- aah!
Man! I ain't who you want!
You got to talk to Mason! He knows!
Ah!
Oh, there we go.
There we go.
Please, man. Ohh.
Please, man. Please.
Who was the shooter?
I can't...
I can't tell you. He's family, man.
I know you know. I'm not asking.
They'll kill me if I say anything!
And you think I won't.
All right. Okay.
I do the chop job.
I collect the Vin numbers,
And this guy blue buys them off me.
That's all I know!
And he comes alone?
That's what I've been trying to tell you!
He never comes with anyone!
Who?!
Ah! Okay!
Okay, I'll tell you, man!
I'll tell you, but you got to promise me --
You got to promise me you'll only arrest him
And you won't kill him, man!
I swear to God, if you kill -- all right.
I swear to God, if you kill him -- where is he?!
Where is he?! He stays -- he stays at our grandma's house, man.
How do you get in touch with him?
Text messages on my cellphone.
So if I text him, tell him to come here, he'll come?
Yeah.
Only that ain't gonna happen.
What are you doing? What are you doing?
Which number is it?
What's the number, blue?!
Come on!
I'll tell you, then you'll kill me, huh?!
If you don't tell me...
I'll kill you.
And then I'll kill your grandma.
So, where are we?
What do you want me to tell you?
I mean, we don't got Mac.
We don't know where the shooter is.
We got nothing, man.
It's tiny.
Tiny.
Thanks.
Nothing on Mac's cellphone.
Uh...
Frank.
555-0199.
Where are you?
Exactly where I'm supposed to be.
What the hell does that mean?
You know, my whole life, seems like I fell into things --
Becoming a cop, getting married.
Now I've been given a very rare opportunity.
I can actually make a small contribution to the world.
You do that every day on the streets, Mac.
Hey, tiny. It's Tommy.
Listen, I need you to trace another cellphone for me.
The reason I called --
I signed over my life insurance.
Pension money -- everything goes to Deena, okay?
You sound like
You don't think you're gonna come out of this.
I don't know.
I mean, I'm expecting somebody,
And he might not come alone.
Mac, just tell me where you are.
Tommy and I will give you backup.
I got this one, Frank.
I just want you to know I didn't do this drunk.
I'm stone-cold sober,
So don't waste your breath trying to talk me out of it.
Look, you want to do this, give him a bullet for me, okay?
Killing these guys -- that's the easy part.
The hard part comes after.
Some guys, it's a sunny day.
Other guys, it eats them alive.
You got to ask yourself which one are you?
I guess we'll find out.
It's blue's cellphone. I got his 20.
Is blue there?
Yeah, he's here.
Is he dead?
Now he is.
Mac?
Mac?!
Blue!
Where you at?
Where you at, man?
You Odell?
You were the shooter? Yeah.
Blue's over there.
You see him?
Blue.
Wake up, blue.
You know who I am?
I'm a cop.
And you did this?!
What's the matter with you?!
Let me ask you a question.
What did you think would happen to you?
You killed a cop.
What did you think would happen to you?!
Nothin'!
I'm 14, man. What could happen to me?
Nothin'.
Hey, Frank.
Hey, Mac.
How'd you find me?
Blue's cellphone, when you were talking to me.
GPS -- I didn't think of that.
Who's this guy?
Meet Odell.
He's blue's brother.
This is the guy that shot Aziz.
Odell, tell Tommy and Frank what you told me just now.
I asked him what he thought would happen.
He killed a cop, and what did he think would happen to him?
Tell them what you said.
Go on!
Nothin'.
Nothin' would happen.
Go to juvie for a couple of years.
He's right.
He'll go to juvie.
And this -- this will give him street cred.
He'll think, "it's okay. I got away with it."
We need to send a message to him, Frank --
You kill a cop, you die.
You ain't gonna shoot me.
I had to do it, Frank.
It's the only way to keep us all safe out there.
Just give me that.
All right.
Let's clean this up.
I see you found the place.
Yeah.
Sorry to hear about that cop
Who was killed by those car thieves.
Hmm. And still no leads on who did it.
No, no. We know who did it.
We just can't find them. They've gone underground.
I'm glad you brought up that cop who died.
That's kind of what we need to talk about.
Oh?
His partner took it really hard.
I.A. Went at him when he was still in shock.
Didn't even wait the 24-hour grace period.
If it was up to me, Frank,
There wouldn't even be a grace period.
Why is that? In my experience,
The longer you wait to talk to a police officer,
The more time he has to make up a lie
To cover up whatever wrong he's done.
Anyway, I understand that cop's partner is doing just fine.
He'll be back on the job in a few weeks.
Doesn't matter that his best friend just died
And he's going through hell?
Hell's part of the job, isn't it?
So, all those cops that are out there
Making cases for you to prosecute...
They're all just liars, too?
That isn't the issue.
We're talking about police wrongdoing on the job,
And you're a perfect example of that.
How's that? There have only been three major police strikes
In north America in the last century.
One of those strikes belongs to you.
And if I had my way,
I would've thrown your ass in jail for 20 years.
So this isn't about all the cops that are out there.
This is...
Simply about me.
You think cops should make up their own rules.
You want them to have citizens' rights,
Which is something they can never be allowed to have.
How come?
Because cops are just bullies and thugs
Who we pay to catch other bullies and thugs.
And you're the worst of them, Frank,
'cause you're just a bully and a thug in a nice suit.
And whatever it takes, whatever dirt I have to dig up
Or make up...
You're going down, I promise you.
It's just that some of the members of my union
Might have something else to say about that.
Being that this is a democracy,
Perhaps we should put it to a vote...
Right here, right now.
Everybody...
The Attorney General thinks
That we're just bullies and thugs with badges.
What do you guys say?
What the hell is this?
A roomful of cops.
Oh, and they just...
Heard our little conversation.
And when word gets out about this meeting,
Your life is profoundly gonna change.
Everywhere you go, everything you do,
There's gonna be a cop right there,
Reminding you that we're just bullies and thugs with badges...
Unless, of course, you change the police act
And give cops...
48 hours before they have to be questioned.
Up to you.
All right, I'll change the police act.
But this just proves my point, Frank.
You're nothing but a thug in a nice suit.
We'll do this again sometime.
Hmm.
Thank you, Fernando.
Whatever they want. Lunch is on me.
