"Previously on The Shield..." "Sir, what's the problem?" "My dick." "Please..." "You're caught in a rat trap." "I've got lupus." "I've had it for 15 years." "Don't move her." "Call the paramedics." "Why didn't you tell me Sadie has a history of mental illness?" "I made a life for myself." "You been missing me?" "Ex-wife." "I wasn't worth taking care of, and now I'm not worth shit!" "I want to go home!" "At least we found his weak spot." "Shit, go!" "You!" "You're under arrest..." "for possession of heroin with intent to distribute." "The price is simple." "I help you put away these four fine young men, you make sure you put them away right here." "You send Lem to Lompoc, it's you that's the real murderer." "I had a conversation with Antwon Mitchell." "You're bluffin'." "You don't have the stomach to serve Lem up to Antwon." "I didn't used to." "Shit." "Morning." " You gotta be kiddin' me." " Welcome home." " You don't look so good." " I'm not talking to you." "It's a social call." "You're lucky having a friend like Mr. Holvis." "Smithen Holvis." "Your good buddy who posted your bail." " Smitty." " This is funny." "He doesn't remember you that well either." "Just get out, man." "You know, when I find out how Vic and the other two got that bail money, they're gonna wish that they had a friend like your friend Smitty." "Jesus!" "Is that blood?" "You need a doctor?" "Just get the hell out!" "Just get out!" "Heard you had a rough week, so I told Jon I'd stop by and check in on you." "The sun will rise in the west the day that man cares whether I live or die." "Well, he did the same thing for me with my ex." "Did more for her than he did for me." "Sounds like you guys are close." "We've been spending a lot of time together, actually," "On account of the job." "But Jon's kinda tough to figure out." "Consider yourself fortunate." "He didn't tell me, uh..." "you have kids?" "Family wasn't on Jon's "to do"list." "Just as well." "Easier to move on." "You want coffee?" "Uh, water's fine." "So how does it work, you and the ex?" "Good and bad." "But I look out for her, make sure she gets what she needs." "At least you guys have a connection." "For better or worse." "You're not what I expected." "The truth is I didn't have a clue what sort of woman Jon would have married." "Neither did he." "He still doesn't." "Just like him to send somebody else over to carry my emotional baggage." "Tell the prick I'm great." "Hey, it's tough to be a cop's wife." "Jon's wife is the job." "It's what keeps him warm at night." "Is there some other message you'd like me to give him?" "Sure." "Whoa." "Whoa." "What about Jon?" "When Jon left me, he made his choice." "I'll make mine." "Hey." "Where you been?" "I had an ex-wife thing." "What'd you need us here for?" "Not her, me." "I'm gonna take a deal." "Just listen." "If I plead guilty to the heroin thing, this all seals off." "Without me, Kavanaugh's got nothing else." "He's got nothing on you guys." "We're not feeding you to Antwon." "Lompoc's an idle threat." "The judge will most likely place him in a medium security facility." "Kavanaugh's not gonna let you skate with some cush deal." "He's got Emolia's testimony, man." "He wants years!" "He's got the brass behind him." "Not anymore." "O.I.G. and the chief, they're losing confidence in Kavanaugh's investigation." "D.A.'s receptive." "I plead guilty to theft under color of authority, they'll drop the intent to distribute charge." "No!" "5 years." "Up for parole in 18 months." "If you plead guilty, it's your badge, it's your pension." "We're talking prison." "18 months isn't a week." "I know." "Don't do it!" "Don't do it, man!" "We're fighting this, man!" "I don't wanna fight anymore." "I don't wanna fight anymore, all right?" "If you were in my place, you'd take the hit... to protect me, the team." "I know you would." "OF MICE AND LEM" "Look, no matter what we do, end of the day," "Kavanaugh's still got a brick of tar." "He's still got Emolia's word." "You heard Becca." "The chief's losing faith." "I'm working on discrediting this guy." "So I.A.D. brings in someone else." "They still have the same brick." "I'm doing time no matter what." "This way, I got some control." "Look, I'm just so tired of not knowing what's gonna happen, worrying about the rest of you." "I gotta see an end." "Jesus Christ, man!" "I gotta get back inside and talk to Becca." "Let us know if anything breaks." "All right." "For him to get out in 18 months, he's gonna have to be a model inmate." "That's not gonna happen." "Protective custody's a joke." "He's gonna be fightin' for his life the full 5 years." "What the hell is he thinking?" "Between Kavanaugh spinning doom and Becca selling him a rose garden, the poor guy doesn't know what end is up." "Or he's taking the deal because he knows eventually Kavanaugh's gonna get him to crack." "I'm off to Lompoc." "I was beginning to think that you didn't have love for me anymore." "I was getting a little jealous, you spending so much time with another cop." "Oh." "Yeah, Kavanaugh's an intense cat, isn't he?" "Shame about Lemansky, man." "But you do know that blondie will end up in my backyard." "We don't know anything yet." "And if Lem does do time, he's not gonna land here." "I've got a real big backyard." "And wherever he lands," "I decide his quality of life." "But that's why you're here." "You need something, same as I do." "Otherwise, you wouldn't have sent that little black breezy to find me." "Truth is Antwon Mitchell's the answer to all your prayers." "Lemansky's guardian angel." "You see, we have a relationship, you and me." "That relationship's had its ups and downs, but it's still a relationship." "You make me drive all the way out here for couple's counseling or you got something to say?" "The Niners have taken a serious hit since my incarceration." "Halpern's been running them under the radar, until this black-brown shitstorm plays itself out." "That cranky black bitch is afraid of his own goddamn shadow." "I've got some serious old-school weight coming in." "Kern Little." "I knew Kern's rap career was in the dollar bin." "I didn't know he was back in colors." "Eventually, they all come home." "And Kern, he's eager to help me with my cash-flow problem." "I've got to hand out a lot of turkeys at Thanksgiving." "There's a warehouse on ridge road, a place where they're storing what's left of the seized assets." "You want me to rip off a P.D. warehouse?" "Of course not." "Kern's already put together a team for that." "You just gotta come up with a plan on how and when to get my guys in." "Walk Kern and his second, Moses, through it." "That's more than an escort." "That's a hooker and a hand-job." "Hey." "That's the price for my guarantee that Lemansky stays alive." "Stand back." "Nothing to see here." "Jesus!" "His dick's gone." "Somebody find it." "Jogger called it in." "No I.D." " Gunshot?" " No." "There's a rat trap in one of the stalls." "I was real careful not to disturb the crime scene." "Good thinking." "You wanna get that on ice." "Send it with him to the hospital." "It's not gonna matter if we don't get him stabilized." "We need to move now." "Let's get a canvass going." "The same M.O. as that attack a couple of weeks ago." "The suspect was male, caucasian, thirties." "Well, let's not rule anyone out yet." "In a world of men, the thoughts even crossed my mind." "Serrated teeth," "Interlocking, no less." "This is a lot more gothic than the last glory-hole attack." "Did you talk to the hospital?" "The victim's still unconscious." "He sustained a head injury when he passed out." "He's in pretty rough shape." "So we have no way of knowing if and when he'll be able to communicate." "Canvass turn up anything?" "Nothing so far." "So we got dick... which is more than I can say for the victim." "We need to get the word out." "Bookstores, bathhouses, bars, anywhere this sort of activity goes on." "Uh, we need to re-interview the victim of the first glory-hole attack." "What's his name?" "He gave us everything that he had." "He never talked to a detective." "It's Alarico Trujillo." "I'll write his address down." "This Trujillo guy, he's married, kids." "I told him I'd keep his name out of it if he cooperated." "He held up his end." "This has escalated way beyond a twisted prank." "He's our only conscious witness." "We'll be discreet." "Thank you." "Is this thing even remotely safe?" "We make sure it is, 'cause we got no choice." "Antwon's the devil we know." "What it it's the other devil?" "Kavanaugh laying a trap." "He's been cutting deals with Antwon." "Maybe this is his last stab before Lem seals us off." "No, this place is wide open." "We can spot a surveillance unit a mile away." "If Kavanaugh was planning a sting, this wouldn't be the place." "Or he knows we would think that." "We sniff out every inch of this thing." "Triple check every last detail." "We get on bad whiff, we bail." "Hey, why don't you crank it up?" "Might still be some cops in long beach who can't hear it." "Why don't you relax, Teeth." "I was hoping I'd never see you in purple again." "I never took it off." "You know how that goes." "Yeah, I do." "This is my boy Moses." "Check 'em both." "Looking for this?" "No." "We got a little bug problem lately." "You think we work for the white law?" "White law, black power, it's all the same shit." "I just want to make sure our visit stays anonymous." "They're clean." "No shit, captain cracker." "That's clever." "Can't understand why that rap career didn't take off." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Easy!" "Easy!" "Easy!" "Now, what's your goddamn problem?" "Times change, man." "I don't trust you or your ghost squad." "Well, the lack of love is mutual." "Yeah, I see that." "You and Antwon?" "Nothing like karma." "Hey!" "The favor I have to do." "Taking mouth shit from MC Has-Been, I don't!" "Come on." "Come on, fellas." "Now, let's just put this history on hold and get this shit done, OK?" "Let's go over it." "OK." "There's one guard." "He spends most of his shift at the gatehouse, here." "A guy of ours says the warehouse is wall-to-wall cameras." "They feed into a bank of monitors back at the gate." "The seizure locker's here." "Can't miss it, right past the hummer." "There's antiques, TVs, and a safe, a big one." "Mitchell was right." "We checked the inventory." "Over 500 grand in watches and jewelry." "Yeah, and that's all we go for." "No one drives out of there with a hummer or a flat screen." "Yeah?" " Where are you?" " Why?" "We need to talk." "Kavanaugh's covering his bets in case the criminal case against you doesn't make." "What do you mean "in case?"" "Surprised this clown hasn't gotten the hook already." "By acknowledging you failed to clear the room when Terry was shot," "Kavanaugh's to characterize your earlier statements as false and misleading." "That's bullshit." "I've told the truth since day one." "Nothing I've said has changed because the facts haven't." "Then he's doing a good job of twisting your words." "It's not unconceivable that he could cost you your retirement." "Where'd you hear that?" "Your case was referred to the police committee for review." "You let him try to take my pension." "PBA reps will have his head on a pike." "I wouldn't be so sure." "You know, Kavanaugh could get this as a face-saving way to end his investigation." "Never mind prying a cop with a sketchy jacket of the taxpayer's tit." "Anyway, we said we'd share." "I thought you'd want the heads up." "Thanks." "Wait a minute." "Is Kavanaugh making any noise around here about me?" "All's been quiet as it relates to you." "Undermining him is a priority." "For both of us." "We'd like to speak to Alarico Trujillo." "About a car accident he witnessed a couple weeks back." "Policía." "Policía?" "Uh, we have a few more questions about that accident." "I told you people everything." "You didn't tell me about no car accident." "I got nothing more to say." "There's been another driver that's been very seriously injured." "It's important you come with us." "Someplace private." "Look, man... just leave me alone, OK?" "We can do this another way if we have to." "Pretty soon this is gonna be a lonely room filled with empty lockers, huh?" "You and me are the only ones on the way out." "I just cut a deal with the D.A." "What deal's that?" "Why don't you ask the chief?" "It's sitting on his desk waiting for his signature." "He'll be out on parole before the blood rushes back to your face." "You don't mind if I check the facts before I pack my bags, do you?" "I don't give a shit what you do." "Yeah." "Thanks." "Chief's office hasn't even seen the Lemansky deal yet." "His mouthpiece's is feeding him a happy meal to keep his spirits up." "Speaking of happy meals, did Vic bite on that intel about me going after his pension?" "You didn't see the steam coming off his bald head?" "Beautiful, man." "I so want there to be trust between you two." "I need to use your office." "Of course." "Anything I can do for you?" "No." "It's a police matter." "Mi casa es su casa." "You gave us all a scare, that spill you took." "Well, if you got one of these, there's plenty of..." "bounce to the ounce." "Let me get to the point." "I've been made aware that you have a serious medical condition, one that could compromise your ability to perform your duties." "You needed to disclose a disease like lupus." "You didn't." "Because it was a personal matter." "Supposed you had taken that heathout in the field?" "You could have put other officers at risk." "But it didn't happen." "And I'm not here because of how I knock down doors." "I'm ordering you to see a city physician for a full medical review." "Until then, you're assigned to desk duty." "Then let's get it done, ASAP!" "I've got plenty of cases to clear." "I'm responsible for the health and welfare of everyone working here." "Then maybe you ought to do something about the epidemic of bullshit in this place." "Claudette, don't let your frustrations get you in over" "This man Kavanaugh that you've just given the place over to," "I understand he's got an investigation to run, but have you any idea what he's doing to morale?" "She's got a point there." "I.A.D. is arrogant and intrusive." "It's nature of the beast." "But this man takes intimidation to a whole other level." "He's got every officer in this place spooked." "They spend more time looking over their shoulders than they do doing their jobs." "That's a fair assessment." "Our last captain had unpopular policies." "So you stuck us with an interim jellyfish that won't rock the boat." "Then you cut resources that we need to do the job." "Talk about putting people at risk." "Crime stats are down since I took over." "If you aren't out to lunch, passing the buck, or leaving every day at 4:00, you'd know that our citizens aren't reporting half of what's going on out there because they know that we can't or won't do anything." "If you want me to go and pee in a cup," "I'll be happy to fill it." "But I'm not your problem." "Pretty loopy." "Maybe that's why they call it lupus." "Look, I've been here too long as it is." "My wife's gonna get suspicious." "You have a perfectly plausible cover story." "If you'd like me to call and explain" "No." "Please..." " Dutch." " I just wanna go home." "Give me a second." "Sit down." "What'd the assistant chief want?" "I'm trying to comprehend why you felt the need to inform the department that I have lupus." "What?" "I did nothing of the kind." "The chief's office is certainly up to speed." "Well, not from me." "You're the only one who knew." "Obviously not." "Because of you, I'm riding a desk." "Claudette, you're not hearing me." "I have not spoken to anyone about this." "You went to the D.A.'s office before" "To make a separate peace behind my back, remember?" "Oh, come on!" "You don't believe me?" "If you didn't tell them that directly," "Then somebody you told did." "Maybe that little latina wet dream you've been pushing up against." "Maybe you gave her a little bit of gossip so you could show how plugged in you are!" "Hold on-- you've crossed the line into wholesale character assassination." "Career assassination is a lot worse!" "This is good." "This helps a lot." "I'll have an officer give you a ride home." "I'll take a bus." "I don't want to be getting out of a police car in my neighborhood." "Captain?" "What can I do for you?" "Art Gadway, Los Angeles gay men's initiative." "I'd like to talk to whoever's in charge about recent attacks on members of our community." "Julien, come talk to this guy about the rat trap glory-hole business, will you?" "This is officer Lowe." "He's been with this since the beginning." "Um, we've been interviewing witnesses." "In the meantime, we're asking anyone with any information to contact us." "So basically you're waiting for this sadist to turn himself in." "That would be a wrong perception." "Well, your captain couldn't wait to shuffle me off onto you." "And it's clear that you'd rather be anywhere else than talking to me." "Instead of playing the blame game, why don't you help us get the word out and distribute these?" "I'm sure you people know where the glory holes are better than we do." "Are you aware that e there are at least a half dozen attacks we know of haven't been reported?" "Maybe those people knew what they were doing was wrong." "Adults engaging in consensual sex?" "In public..." "which is a crime." "Thank you for coming down and registering your concerns." "I need your name and badge number." "You need to keep your hands off me." "Look, you and your buddies in blue can hate all you want to, but we're here." "You need to get used to it." "I did a 5-mile sweep." "No R.F. on infrared readout anywhere." "Nobody's transmitting any voice or video." "We've been up and down the dial." "No coded chatter." "Don't move." "Don't move." "You don't fight, you don't die." "No fighting, man." "Whatever you want." "Shut up!" "Walk!" "Come on!" "Don't forget the tools." "What the hell are you doing?" "!" "Finishing the job." "Antwon's orders." "Holy shit!" "Turn around!" "Against the fence right now!" "He's gone." "Shit!" "This was not part of the deal!" "Sure it was." "The part Antwon didn't tell you about." "Kill me and you lose favor with Antwon." "And your boy ends up facedown in a pool of blood and blowjuice." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Get up!" "Get the safe and get out!" "You heard him, let's go!" "Get up!" "What the hell do we do here?" "Goddamn it." "Give me a hand." "Shit." "I don't get it." "Kern was no backseat banger." "Antwon had him taken out before Kern took over." "Why not just whack him when he's in the hood?" "Word got out that Antwon took out Kern, the street would take it as a weakness." "A gang without a leader." "Brothers jump to other sets." "Kern goes down in the line of duty." "Get some Niners street cred." "Moses takes over, pushes Antwon's agenda." "Goddam it." "Goddam it, man." "Let's go." "You gotta be shittin' me!" "These brothers can take a bullet." "Oh, God." "What now?" "Help." "Help." "Let's go." "Vic, come on, man!" "We can't just-- 911 will take 20 minutes to get here." "He's gonna be dead in 10." "We'll wait." "Then we leave, call it in." "You sure about this?" "Kern's dead." "We can still save Lem." "Jesus!" "Mackey!" "Mackey, please!" "Mackey!" "Let me outta here!" "Police!" "We're cutting the lock!" "On my command you stand, hands on your head!" "Sorry I spaced on the combination." "There's glory hole over there and a couple of rat traps." "The owner said he put them out." "Tough to prove whose whose." "Stand slowly!" "Hands on your head!" "We helped you catch him." "I expect you to hold up your end." "What do you suppose would happen" "If someone snapped this-- on someone's dick?" "You're sick, you know that?" "I didn't make this up." "This one here?" "Serrated teeth." "Guy who got caught in this is gonna pee sitting down... if he survives." "Aren't you glad it wasn't you?" "That'd be a hell of a secret you'd have to live with." "Something personal and embarrassing that affects your ability to function." "Not something you'd want a lot of people top know about." "OK, you want to do this?" "You can talk to him." "I'll come back later." "So, Jared, what do you got against gay folks?" "That some sort of tactic?" "You pretend to pick a fight, and then you do the whole tag-team thing?" "Just answer the question." "He give you anything?" "Nope." "We need to put this guy in a lineup." "He's all yours." "Tina, we need to bring Trujillo in again." "I'll tell him to meet you down the block from his place." "Keep up appearances." "Got it." "Alarico Trujillo on Lattimer Ave?" "Yeah." "Unis just responded to a domestic at his address that got ugly." "You should run with it since you're dealing with him" "OK." "OK." "I got balls in the air on a big 211 that just got called in." "I'm gonna check in on it personally." "We got here, he was standing over her with a baseball bat." "What happened?" "We got married, the priest told her everything I'd done before with men was in the past." "I tried to stop, but she knew what was up." "You people started coming around asking questions." "She knew why." "What the hell is he doing here?" "Pretending to be a cop." "You guys called this in?" "Yeah." "We got a tip the One-Niners were hitting this place." "We got stuck in the van on a stakeout." "Couldn't make it back here in time." "What's the damage?" "Looks like the guard took out one of them before he got his head blown off." "Detective Mackey, do you know him?" "It's Kern Kittle." "Old-school One-Niner." "Went back to the street game once his hip-hop career hit the skids." "Why don't you inventory what's missing, then we'll start turning over One-Niner rocks." "Familiar scenario, this." "How so?" "Come on." "You don't see it?" "A dead cop killed by the gun of a dead bad guy." "You two, innocent bystanders." "We were on the other side of Farmington, asshole." "Anybody see you?" "Wouldn't have been much of a stakeout if they had." "You know what?" "You should start eating again, man." "Malnourishment's starting to screw with your logic." "Lemansky's going to prison." "You need to protect him." "You reach out to Antwon Mitchell." "For some reason, he needs his crew leader dead." "Bad blood, internal beef, whatever." "So... you kill him." "Your end of the deal." "He keeps Lem alive." "His end of the deal." "How's that logic sound to you?" "Let me remind you of a few things you seem to have forgotten." "I didn't kill Terry." "You've lost your leverage with Lem." "And your ex-wife's pussy... tastes like sweet butter." "What do you want?" "Sadie, you gonna let me in?" "I'm in the middle of something." "I just need to know if you've seen this guy." "Yeah." "He came through." "Are you OK?" "What do you care?" "Did he hurt you?" "You're the only one who ever hurts me, Jon." "That's not gonna happen again." "Can you just... tell me what he did." "Just tell me what happened." "What did he do?" "What did he do?" "Um... he made me come." "That's what he did." "No, he didn't." "Oh, yeah." "Twice." "Do you know..." "who this guy is, Sadie?" "Your friend... who you sent to check up on me." "Well, he did." "What did you do?" "Huh?" "You need to go." "Move your arm from the door, Jon... now... or I will call the police." "What's up?" "What are you doing here?" "Chief's office just signed off on the deal." "It's OK, man." "It's over." "It's over." "Uh..." "Thank you, man." "It's all right." "It's OK." "We got your back." "I know." "You're gonna be taken care of, you understand?" "I had nothing to do with this." "But if you're asking me if I think these perverts deserve to be punished, look what they're doing to our country." "Yeah, it's seducing our kids, spreading AIDS." "You gave us your schpiel." "A moment of your time?" "So where are we with this freak?" "He's guilty, just not prosecutable." "The problem is the evidence is circumstantial and threadbare at best." "He matches the witness description." "There's no way the D.A.'s gonna indict off a wife beater's say so." "Let's put him on the tour." "Lose him in the system for a couple of days, bye some time." "With I.A.D. bivouacked to my colon?" "Are you out of your mind?" "If you can't close him, lose him." "Oh." "Uh, Claudette, the chief's here." "He wants to see you." "Hey, I tried to keep it copasetic for you and Phillips." "I got a preliminary report back from the city physician." "Your medically fit to resume your duties." "I could have told you that." "You'll be required to have quarterly checkups." "Your nickel." "I understand you unloaded with both barrels on my number two here." "Sometimes happens I see red." "Changes have to be made." "For starters, I've decided to appoint you captain." "What makes you think I want that revolving door?" "You know this place better than anybody in the department." "Which is why you don't see my jumping at the offer." "My predecessor made a mistake slapping you down with that D.A. nonsense." "But you and I can find a way to work together, right?" "For starters, I would need a guarantee that I would run the Barn." "Not in theory, in fact." "No one can do the job with..." "Sorry to interrupt, but... can I just confirm some very disturbing news?" "Did you... did you sigh off on a deal with Lemansky?" "I did." "I thought we agreed no deals." "The only way to get Mackey is to leverage his guys." "We're in the middle of something here, lieutenant." "So am I!" "And it just got derailed because you guys backed down!" "It's over, Jon." "Sending Lemansky to jail sends a message." "We all move on now." "And Mackey skates clean." "This guy-- This guy is just pissing... just pissing all over us... and we just smile and lick it up?" "That's enough." "Vic Mackey kills cops!" "He-- He deals drugs!" "He beats suspects!" "You know what he did yesterday?" "He-- He screwed my ex-wife with the sole purpose... of making this investigation seem like a personal vendetta." "He may have assassinated a gang leader." "And that's just all in one day." "I wonder what he's gonna do today?" "I wonder what he's gonna do tomorrow?" "This guy-- This guy's just pissing" "He's pissing all over us!" "He's pissing on you!" "What does it taste like?" "Chief, what does it taste like?" "'Cause you know what?" "It tastes like piss to me!" "You have 48 hours to tie up the lose ends." "And find someplace else to do the paperwork." "Captain Wyms needs her office." "We'll sneak the whole cow into you, man." "Hey, Lem, I'm sorry." "Glad it's over, though." "That's OK." "Thanks." "Thank you." "Man, you're gonna be a little thinner next time I see you." "Yeah." "Thanks." "Hey, I gotta get some things in order." "I'll see you guys at the party, all right?" "Here you go." "What's that?" "That's the paperwork for the 211 you called in last night." "EMT found a ton of jewelry in the pocket of the dead banger." "Shitheads shot an innocent guy and walked away with almost nothing." "Which means... the goddamn safe was empty?" "Holy shit." "I gotta talk to Antwon." "These fags." "They choose a life of sin and suffering, get what they deserve." "But I'm the one in handcuffs." "Hey." "Stand up." "Does his family deserve to have their lives ruined because of what you did to him?" "Men's room on Alvarado." "I've never seen that guy before." "But if he's being punished for his wickedness, then it's God's will." "You're His spokesman now?" "It's right there in the book." ""You shall not lie with the male as one lies with a female."" "It's an abomination." "I mean, come on." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Leviticus 18, I know." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Where do you go to church?" "Christ Bethany." "What is this?" "So then you know that Jesus lived a perfect life of truth, and he was crucified for it." "What do you suppose happens to someone who lies in his name, who passes judgment on other people in his name?" "Psalm 71, verse 4." " Hey!" "Stop!" " "Deliver me, o my God," ""Out of the hand of the wicked." ""Out of the hand of the unrighteous and the cruel man."" "Stop!" "You wanted to look at a man down there." "You wanted to touch it!" "Thought about it for a long time." "Maybe all of your life." "You just never did it 'cause you knew that it was wrong." "No!" "No!" "So you convinced yourself that you were doing God's will, gave yourself an excuse to find out what another man's penis feels like?" "No!" "I would never do something so repulsive and disgusting!" "You're no different than the men you prey on." "You're a homosexual." "No!" "No!" "No!" "Homosexual!" "No." "You're just too weak and afraid to admit it." "That's a lie!" "That is a lie!" "I am a christian!" "They are vermin!" "I did it because they are vermin!" "Why would any man wanna to touch another man down there?" "I did it to punish them!" "What, no muffins?" "You shouldn't have taken the deal, Curtis." "You weren't supposed to get the worst of this." "That's all you did from the minute you picked me up is threaten me with jail." "That's all it was." "It was just a threat." "Well, you threw me in country." "You arrested me." "I'd knew you'd make bail, just not so soon." "It was just a strategy, man, a wedge to get you to turn." "Cops will always give it up with the threat of jail." "Always." "But not you, not Curtis Lemansky." "I can't believe you're doing this." "You're gonna take the hit for him, for them?" "Well, believe it." "I'm sorry that I didn't... that we didn't become friends sooner." "Maybe, uh... pulled this in another direction." "If I'd just made a... any man'd be lucky to have you in his corner." "Good luck, Curtis." "Hey." "Hey." "It's over." "I know." "Take care of yourself, all right?" "Things went south." "Dirty south." "Alabama south." "If I had all the information going in," "We wouldn't be sitting here." "But here we are right now." "Big blue and his little black puppet." "What the hell are you talking about?" "Kavanaugh dimed me, man." "Told me you'd been bragging' about how you were playing me against him," "How you manipulated me into protecting Lemansky" "To shit all over his leverage." "That's bullshit!" "He's jerkin' us off." "What do you care?" "He can't get to you in here." "No, but he can touch everyone around me." "That crazy-ass nigger, he initiated a full-scale D.O.C. investigation of this place." "The heat's is on." "And soon, I won't be feeling all the comforts of home." "Look, I'll figure out a way to get you your cash." "I'll look into this d.O.C. thing." "You've done enough." "The deal and this conversation are over." "Jesus Christ!" "I took care of that "little" thing for you!" "Now, you're to tell me that doesn't buy Lem some time?" "Oh, that buys you one more dead cop." "I got Niners in every pen in the state." "So wherever he touches down, it will happen." "And you can set your watch to that inevitability." "If one of your crew so much as hard looks my guy, my reach will get you shaved." "You got reach like that?" "So why are you sitting down here talking to me, grey boy, huh?" "It's OK." "It's all right." "That's just detective Mackey's way of saying good-bye." "I cut you a break for that meltdown in front of Phillips on account of your medical problems and so forth, and then I find out it's part of your campaign to steal my job?" "I didn't go after this." "Why did you do me like this?" "I thought you and me were good." "We are good, and I didn't do you." "Letting Kavanaugh loose in this place, they set you up to fail." "It's not your fault." "I didn't fail." "Is that what people are saying?" "I'll need you to help me pick up the pieces." "I'm supposed to stick around after getting shagged in the back like this?" "No." "I got some pride, you know?" "Why don't you give it a few days?" "When you're ready to talk, my door's open." "I gotta get a good look." "Hey." "Your entertainment just showed up." "I figured it was time for me to leave." "Right." "This is not the safest 'hood." "I'll get you to your car." "Oh, my." "I'm taking him to the courthouse, 9:00 tomorrow morning." "Officially surrender." "You doing OK?" "Yeah." "We did the right thing, Vic." "Thank you for helping him." "You're a good friend." "He's lucky to have you." "Hey." "What's going on?" "Listen, I gotta tell you something." "What?" "I hear we got a confession out of trapper John." "He and Julien reasoned together." "Congratulations on your promotion." "Thanks." "I didn't know it was public." "I wanted you to hear that from me." "Well, you know things spread around here." "Like herpes at a swinger's party." "While you were stretched out on the floor over there, the paramedics found Prednisone in your purse." "They called your doctor to find out what you were being treated for." "Billings overheard and reported to Phillips." "He just told me." "He thought lupus was an emotional disorder." "I'm sorry." "You can't un-ring that bell." "You don't trust me." "I made a mistake." "You made a choice to think the worst about me." "I'll need your support." "I've got my work cut out for me." "You'll do fine." "Whoever sits up there has to have an active mistrust of everyone and everything in this place." "I can't imagine anyone better suited to the job." "Who were they?" "Look, you guys, I hate to step on the pussy and laughs, but we gotta talk about a change of plans." "What change?" "You're not going to prison." "What are you talking about?" "We made a deal with Antwon to get you safe passage inside." "It went bad." "The thing at the warehouse?" "Oh, Jesus Christ!" "Kavanaugh's launched a department of corrections investigation of Lompoc." "He's gonna make Antwon's life hell." "Antwon's blaming me." "I won't end up in Lompoc." "Word gets out that Antwon's got a beef, any prison, any protective custody, best-case scenario, you're gonna bust enough heads to stay alive." "Which means I can kiss early release good-bye." "Worst-case scenario, you're gonna kiss everything good-bye." "What the hell am I supposed to do?" "You're gonna lay low until I can figure out a way to get Antwon back on board." "You're putting him on the run?" "I can't run anymore!" "We're out of options." "Look, Vic, I do not wanna do this." "Do we even have a plan?" "I'm working on one right now." " Where's he gonna go?" " I don't know!" "I don't know!" "Now... you're gonna hide while I find Gilroy's contacts." "Mexico?" "!" "No!" "No!" "Lem, it's only temporary." "But what about my deal?" "If I run, man, they're gonna throw it out." "They'll have all new charges." "It's better than the alternative!" "Lem, right now, this is about keeping you alive!" "Lem, I promise you..." "I promise you, man..." "I promise you we're gonna make this work." "I try to be handy, but it's..." "Good thing." "Whatever" "I don't know." "I've heard of a green thumb." "Hurry up!" "Oh, God!" "Julien!" "Shit!" "Can I talk to you for a second?" "Just one second." "Subtitles:" "FRM-xxy  Lemonhead"
