"I don't know your agenda, but no one succeeds here by being anti-cop." "I'm anti-criminal, even if they're wearing a badge." "I must've missed that quote in the paper." "ACEVEDA:" "What will you do about the Strike Team?" "Suspend them?" "What about innocent till proven guilty?" "They can't be on the streets with these charges pending." "And we can't suspend decorated officers without due process!" "Reassign the Strike Team to the general detective pool." "Give them different partners." "In the meantime, I'll see if I can figure out who leaked this." "Don't bother." "You want to pack your things now, or would you like a few days?"

"I'm filling out my arrest report, and I'm a little confused." "When I busted in, it looked like you had some cop's dick in your mouth." "That can't be right, can it?" "You got something to say, say it to me." "Okay." "It's easy to make a mistake, especially on a bust." "You think you see someone pocketing two keys of coke instead of ammo." " It can be confusing." " He's not confused about anything." "I'm not taking back my statement." "TOMAS:" "See?" "JULIEN:" "And what you're saying that he and me did, it never happened." "JULIEN:" "It never happened." "TOMAS:" "What?" "Julien." "Julien!" "VIC:" "You heard him." "It never happened." " He needs me." " Aren't you full of yourself?" "VIC:" "It's over." "TOMAS:" "That's not what he said!"

"DUTCH:" "I'll pull the file." "I'll be right back." "SHANE:" "So you lost your husband." "A year ago today." "I'm so sorry." "BRENDA:" "I don't understand." "I mean, why would Andy run from the police?" "He had a burn victim in his trunk and methamphetamine in his pocket." "This doesn't make any sense." "This is from my daughter's rubber stamp kit." "CLAUDETTE:" "You didn't know your husband was involved?" "He's a web page designer, not a drug dealer."

"You knew the OD victim?" "SAMMY:" "He was rushing my frat." "I'm the Pledge Master." "This part of Rush Week?" " My father's a lawyer." " Mine was a bricklayer." "So what?" "Fowler, Kaufman  Rose." "You want to talk to me, talk to them." "[Chuckling]" "We are definitely doing this one my way." "[Sammy grunting]" "SAMMY:" "Get the hell off me!" "VIC:" "You wanted him to be your brother?"

"He and his partner Ari were building a new complex." "DUTCH:" "Was he meeting someone?" "I don't know." "I had just gotten home from my parents' when the police called." " I'm sorry." " It's okay." " Here you go." " Thank you." "SHANE:" "Look, I'll get you some chips." "Thanks." "Have you talked to anyone, like a grief counselor?" "Didn't help." "I know some that are very good." "I don't know." "It's already been a year." "I'm sure it feels like it was yesterday when you got that call." "Our dealer Effi's a 25-year-old still living in his old frat house." " Can't seem to grow up." " He'll grow up fast in San Quentin." "Real fast." "CLAUDETTE:" "Lt'll take a few hours to get the warrant." "I'll start." "VIC:" "Not a problem." "I got some errands to run, anyway." "What's going on?" "This IAD thing's still hanging out there." " I told you." "I'm not changing my statement." " I'm willing to keep your secret." " Sure, you are." " I am!" "What do you think, I want to twist your arm?" " All you got to do is..." " Lie?" "VIC:" "It's not a lie." "You made a mistake." "We put boxes of ammo in that bag, not bricks of coke." "I know what ammo looks like, and blackmail, too." "JULIEN:" "It's not gonna work." "VIC:" "I got nothing to lose." "My guys have taken fire from every scumbag in town." "They're going down because some rookie thinks he saw something?" "I did see something." "I'm not gonna let you destroy their lives." "JULIEN:" "So you're gonna try and destroy mine?" "You're not giving me any choice." "Handing in this arrest report's the only way I can stop you  from making a huge mistake." "That report doesn't prove anything." "I don't have to prove you're gay." "In this house, all I got to do is say it and all the gory details." "COP 1:" "There you go." "COP 2:" "All right." "JULIEN:" "Vic!" "I'm not sure they stole any drugs." "What?" "JULIEN:" "It was dark." "They were at the other end." "My view was obstructed." "You never said your view was obstructed." "It was." "ACEVEDA:" "You didn't see Mackey put bricks of cocaine into a weapons bag?" "I can't be positive." "You didn't see Shane Vendrell drive off with that bag?" "I don't know for sure what was in it." " Mackey got to you." " No." "ACEVEDA:" "He threatened you." "We can get him for that." "He didn't." "Then what?" "JULIEN:" "Maybe I let his reputation cloud my judgment." "ACEVEDA:" "Question. ''Are you positive it was two kilos of cocaine?" "''" "Answer. "Yes."" "JULIEN:" "I'm not sure anymore." "Julien, failure to report corruption and giving false testimony are both serious offenses." "I'll accept whatever punishment I have to." "Sorry to disappoint you." "SHANE:" "Yeah!" "VIC:" "I told you it would go away." " How'd you get him to back off?" " I reasoned with the man." "You are my personal hero." "[Door opens]" "Get out." "SHANE:" "Sure, boss." "I got a big case I'm working." " What did you do to him?" " To who?" "ACEVEDA:" "Officer Lowe." "Nothing." "Is he okay?" "ACEVEDA:" "He changed his statement." "VIC:" "IAD hasn't notified me." "If anything happens to him..." "Can't see why it would." "Listen, I got to run." "I'm touring a school for my kid." "Sorry your headlines got screwed up." "[Hip-hop music playing]" "DANNY:" "What now?" "LAMAR:" "Look at this." "DANNY: ''Hoe''?" "Goddamn bastard call her that for everybody to see." "DANNY:" "How do you know Hooper did this?" "FRAN:" "Hooper's not a very good speller." "DANNY:" "Look it over." "Sign right there." " So he can't come within 10 feet?" " That's a restraining order." " This complaint can justify it." " What if he comes near me?" "Then I'll make him my bitch." "Now sign it." " Sometimes I see him at the Vons." " Vons?" "What Vons?" " He helps with my shopping." " Helps you with your shopping?" "Hell, no!" "LAMAR:" "That stops right here!" "Back off." "Just let her think it through." "She don't need to think." " She needs to sign it!" " Okay." "It's all good." "DUTCH:" "So you were Kyle Kelner's business partner." "Until he died." "DUTCH:" "Where were you on the night he died?" "I told the detective last year." "I was in Phoenix on business." "Why are you just getting around to Kyle's murder now?" "Unfortunately, the file slipped through a crack in the system." "Judging from today's newspaper, I'm surprised any crack slips past you guys." "[Ari chuckling]" "Those are just allegations." "ARl:" "Sure." "Got to stick up for your own." "I understand." "He got along with everyone." "Nice, funny, a great boss, you know?" "Wish I could find another one like him." "I haven't had a decent job since he died." "Must be real tough on you." "LAUREN:" "Yeah." "SHANE:" "Yeah." "It's times like this when you need someone to lean on  like a husband or boyfriend." "I'm single." "[Playful chatter]" "EMERICH:" "Our specialized care is made to meet the needs of autistic children including speech, occupational, behavior therapies." "The facilities are really nice." "VIC:" "I read that if you put a kid with other autistic kids it keeps them from socializing, sort of lowering the bar." "Some people think that but we've seen that autistic children progress best in a small class with other kids their own level." "How does this compare with the public schools?" "The pilot programs?" "EMERICH:" "You risk Matthew being put in a typical class with an aide." "What's wrong with that?" "EMERICH:" "Throwing him in the pool won't teach him to swim." "Here, Matthew will be a leader, he'll gain more confidence." "So he won't be behind anymore." "We have one spot available." "It's sure to go quickly." "$25,000 is pretty steep." "EMERICH:" "Our services aren't cheap but you ask any of the parents here, they'll tell you it's worth it." "CORRINE:" "It seems wonderful." "I know it's an important decision, but I suggest you make it quickly." "Excuse me." "REVEREND:" "Julien." "JULIEN:" "Reverend, why are you here?" "Your captain said you were struggling with a decision and need spiritual guidance." "For some reason, thought I might be able to help." "Come on." "Police stations make me nervous." "I need a smoke." "JULIEN:" "I went back on my statement because I'm not sure what I saw." "REVEREND:" "Why did you sign it in the first place?" "I don't know." "Too eager to do the right thing?" "I overreacted." "I know an overreactor when I see one." "That's not you." "What's going on, Julien?" "What do you do when the man that you are isn't the man that you want to be?" "REVEREND:" "Give the man that you are a kick in the ass." "What's stopping you?" "JULIEN:" "Nothing." "I'll be all right." "REVEREND:" "Only thing better than unfiltered smoke unfiltered prayer." "Just you and God, no secrets  nothing in between." "See you Sunday?" "Yeah." "EFFl: [Distantly] Okay, come on, boys." "[Heavy metal music playing]" "Of course." "You want to go in there unprotected?" "[Guy giggling]" "EFFl:" "Let's go, ladies." "Who's up?" "TIM:" "Are you serious?" "EFFl:" "Tim, you just volunteered." "[Door opens]" "GUY:" "Who's that?" "[Vic laughs]" "EFFl:" "Who the hell are you?" "CLAUDETTE:" "Decency police." "Let me guess, Effi Montecito?" "EFFl:" "Yeah." "VIC:" "You're coming with us." "EFFl:" "What?" "[Bleating]" "CLAUDETTE:" "This one we do my way." "VIC:" "If you feel we have time for that." "VIC:" "I thought screwing sheep went out with New Wave." "EFFl:" "We wouldn't really make them do it." "VIC:" "Right." "EFFl:" "We just wanted to see who would." "MONTECITO:" "Wait, you dragged my son here for a schoolboy prank?" "Your son's here on suspicion of drug trafficking." "MONTECITO:" "What?" "EFFl:" "Dad, it's not true." "So far, three students at Mission Cross Hospital have died from your Cupid crystal meth." "That wasn't mine." "VIC:" "Apparently he supplies half of fraternity row." "We have to get his latest batch off the street before more kids die." "You're dealing drugs again?" "EFFl:" "Dad, they can't prove anything." "MONTECITO:" "You're 25 years old!" "Grow up, will you?" "You stupid son of a bitch!" " What the hell's the matter with you?" " Stop!" "Your stuff has killed somebody!" "[Both shouting]" "[Claudette shouting]" "VIC:" "Guard!" "MONTECITO:" "You know what you're doing to your family?" "Go on!" "Let them take you!" "Go on, you stupid piece of shit!" "You see if I'm gonna bail you out this time!" "[Door closes]" "I like doing things your way." "I told them to take the life support away." "CLAUDETTE:" "Son, I don't mean to be disingenuous, but I'm sorry." "PAUL:" "What's disingenuous mean?" "CLAUDETTE:" "Means you're under arrest." " For what?" " For shaking and baking crystal meth." "I don't know anything about that." "We talked to Effi." "VIC:" "He rolled on you, you roll on him." "PAUL:" "Eric was mixing up a batch, and it exploded and he was screaming." "His flesh was..." "We couldn't take him to the hospital." "VIC:" "So you tossed him in the trunk." "PAUL:" "Andy was gonna bury him in the desert." "He was still alive." "We thought that he would die by the time that we got there." "EFFl:" "Exactly how stupid are you?" "VIC:" "You're six credits shy of graduating for the last four years." "You're a drug dealer who spends his free time watching pledges hump sheep, and he's the stupid one?" "CLAUDETTE:" "Any more bad crank still out there?" "Only the stuff that Manny's holding for collateral." "Who's Manny?" "EFFl:" "He's who we borrowed the money from to start the meth lab." "When we couldn't pay right away, he smashed up my hand and he took half of the drugs as collateral." "VIC:" "How much is half?" "10 pounds." "VIC:" "There's still 10 pounds of this shit out there?" "Goddamn it." "If he hadn't of threatened us, Eric wouldn't have rushed the last batch and he would still be alive." "Who is this Manny guy?" "Manny Sandoval." "Manny Sandoval skated two murders I should have had him for." "I've wanted this bastard for a year." "If he's so bad, how come I never heard of him?" "Supercop, you know every criminal on the street?" "After we catch this guy, I will." "ACEVEDA:" "You want me to give you $20,000?" "You can't be serious." "That's what our meth men owe this Manny." "They're both willing to wear a wire." "Nail him at the drop, get the bad dope out of circulation." "ACEVEDA:" "Stop." "You're under investigation for stealing drugs." "ACEVEDA:" "I should give you cash?" "CLAUDETTE:" "Don't give it to Vic." "Give it to me so we can save some lives." "When do you need it?" "CLAUDETTE:" "Tomorrow." "ACEVEDA:" "So long as we're clear, I'm giving the money to you." "Hi." "I'm sorry to bother you." "I tried to call, but the phone's disconnected." "KIM:" "Yeah." " Is everything okay?" " Yeah." "I just, forgot to pay the bill." "But it'll be on in a couple of days, so..." "No problem." "I need to check on one thing, and I'll be out of your hair." "Did your husband have business ties to Phoenix?" "I don't think so." "I know Ari has family there." "Your husband's partner?" "KIM:" "Yeah." "He was visiting them the night that Kyle was killed." "I called one of those grief counselors you recommended." "Yeah?" "Have an appointment on Tuesday." "Good." "I'm glad." " Thank you." " Detective, do you have to..." "Thanks  for taking care of this." "Thanks." "My pleasure." "Good night." "'Bye." "I called the Reverend Cook because I was worried." "ACEVEDA:" "I know this is tough." "JULIEN:" "You shouldn't have." "I don't know what Mackey did or said but I know it took fortitude to come forward in the first place." "ACEVEDA:" "Where's that fortitude now?" "JULIEN:" "I made a mistake." "ACEVEDA:" "Yes, you have and I want to help you rectify it." "I don't want your help." "You should contact your PBA rep." "You're facing suspension, probably termination." "I wish you'd gone down a different way." "[Door opens]" "CORRINE:" "We can skip the trip to Lake Powell this year." "I can go back to work at the ER, pick up some shifts per diem." "VIC:" "And spend half the money you make on day care." "CORRINE:" "We'll lose that spot." "VIC:" "He'll go to school in the real world, learn to socialize." "CORRINE:" "I want him in Glenridge." "He'll be happy there." "I know it." "You know it, too." "[Vic sighs]" "All right." "Call them tomorrow." "I'll have to pick up extra shifts." "We barely see you enough now." "VIC:" "What do you want from me?" "CORRINE:" "I'm not mad." "We just miss you." "CASSIDY:" "Matthew ruined my notebook." "Let me see." "You know what?" "We'll get you a new one, okay?" "Why does he do stuff like that?" "He never listens." "Matthew listens." "He just understands things differently." "Come here." "See how you make your letters so neat get them to fit inside the lines?" "Yeah." "Matthew  he doesn't know how to make things fit." "He needs help with that kind of stuff." "Big sister help?" "VIC:" "Yeah." "Big sister help." "Come here." "[Kissing]" "Big sister help." "It'll be okay." "It's not okay." "You don't deserve this." "So much for riding that headline onto the City Council." " You're more than just that headline." " Not to Machado." " When he hears that the case fell apart..." " lf he backs out, what happens to your job?" "Gilroy's getting squeezed." "First chance he gets, he's gonna take it out on me." "There's got to be something you can do." "I can't think of what." "I really thought this was my shot." "I'm so sorry." "[Baby crying]" "[Aceveda chuckles]" "I knew twice in one day was too much to hope for." "''Shoe''?" "[Rock music playing]" "What are you doing here?" " I told you, I only needed two minutes." " He bumped into me at the Vons." "[Laughing]" "Who painted that ''S''?" "I couldn't scrub off ''hoe,'' so I figured that was the next best thing." " Why are we here?" " Lamar slashed my tires again." "FRAN:" "He gets jealous." "HOOPER:" "I want my name off that restraining order and put Lamar's name on there." " That's not gonna be a problem, is it?" " You, come with me." "HOOPER:" "We hooked up at the Vons!" "DANNY:" "Apparently, these guys will do anything for you." "They're serious, and you're leading them on." "I am not." "DANNY:" "Yeah, you are." "Now stop stringing them along." "Just pick one and stick with him." "It's the right thing to do." "DUTCH:" "Go to Phoenix often, Ari?" "Sometimes." "Who did you meet the night that Kyle was killed?" "A business acquaintance." "DUTCH:" "Did you have dinner?" "ARl:" "No, I got in around 9:30." "We had drinks." "DUTCH:" "Did you get a chance to see your family?" "Family?" "No, not that trip." "DUTCH:" "9:30." "So, you were on the 8:00 flight?" "ARl:" "Exactly." "I checked the flight manifests." "Your flight flew out at 10:00." "You want to tell me something, Ari?" "You did it, ass wipe!" "Say it!" "Yes, I killed him!" "I didn't plan it!" "He just found out I was stealing money from our joint account." "He accused me." "I got scared, and I just killed him." "I didn't have a plan." "I didn't have an alibi." "Why didn't you guys arrest me last year?" "[Laughing]" "That rocked!" "Man, you set him up I knocked him down." "Yeah." "You are great." "VIC:" "Don't you just once wish you worked for Beverly Hills P.D.?" "I'll bet you their wires work." "You don't like the WWll hand-me-downs?" "MANNY:" "You guys still owe me $20..." "PAUL:" "The lab exploded." "MANNY:" "Not my problem." "You want the drugs?" "[Static crackling on radio]" "MANNY: 30 percent." "CLAUDETTE:" "Damn." "Did he say it?" "I can't hear." "[Static crackling]" "MANNY:" "Your brother blew up..." "PAUL: 'Cause of you, son of a bitch!" "MANNY:" "Stop, you goddamn crazy kid!" "My eye!" "PAUL:" "He'd still be alive..." "MANNY:" "What is this, is this a bug?" "You taping me, bitch?" "You taping me?" "MANNY:" "I'm gonna kill you." "VIC:" "Drop it!" "VIC:" "Don't make me kill you!" "Self-defense, man!" "Crazy bastard was trying to kill me!" "EFFl:" "Paul just attacked him." "He ruined everything." " I told you, he's stupid." " He killed Eric!" "PAUL:" "Okay, he killed my brother!" "This doesn't screw up my deal, does it?" "Your informant attacks me while working a case for you?" "My lawyer will buy a new home off of this." " You were ready to kill Paul!" " But I didn't." " And even if I did, it was self-defense." " Why don't we let a jury sort that out?" "Some kids croaked on meth, right?" "You put me behind bars, not only won't those charges stick there's a good chance that stuff gets on the street." "VIC:" "You sick bastard." "MANNY:" "Only when I have to be." "We gonna help each other out, or what?" "Why would Ari kill him?" "DUTCH:" "He was siphoning off money from the business." "Kyle caught him red-handed." "He was gonna blow the whistle." "[Sighs]" " Thank you, detectives." " Don't mention it." "It's our job." "I'll check in on you in a few weeks, just to make sure you're doing okay." "I hope you keep that appointment." "This is a lot to take in, I know." "I thought I'd be okay, knowing what happened." "It doesn't make it any better." "It doesn't change anything." "He's still not gonna be there when I get home, is he?" "I just don't want to be alone anymore." "DUTCH:" "Listen, Danny, I know this is short notice, but I have to break our..." "Cancel our dinner tonight." "Everything all right?" "Yeah." "A friend of mine's having a crisis." "DANNY:" "It's no problem." "I'm really sorry." "DANNY:" "I'll just work a double." "I can use the extra cash." "Great." "We'll do it soon." "VIC:" "They swept the whole area." "Garbage cans, dumpsters, crawl spaces, nothing." " What about his place?" " No cupid in sight." "CLAUDETTE:" "Ten pounds of junk is out there." "Enough to kill dozens, and he's holding all the cards." "This might be a good time for us to start doing things my way." "ACEVEDA:" "And what way would that be, exactly?" "Captain." "Didn't see you there." "Someone should put a bell around your neck." "ACEVEDA:" "Where are we with this meth thing?" "Between a rock and a hard place." "Looks like we're gonna have to do this Manny's way." "The drugs were right where you said they'd be." "Lucky guess." "You're welcome for the public service." "MANNY:" "Pleasure doing business with you." "You picked the right day to cross paths with me." "VIC:" "I was handcuffed." "MANNY:" "You guys got a lot of rules." "You know something?" "You might not have pulled any triggers but a lot of people are dead because of you." "VIC:" "You're on my radar now." "MANNY:" "Okay." "VIC:" "Trust me that's not a good thing." "Just have fun tonight." "They're all dying to meet you." "That's why I'm here." "It kills me, Jorge, but this whole thing fell apart." "The key witness got cold feet." "The investigation's dead." "I wanted you to hear it from me." "That's not ideal." "But it's not disaster, either." "David, people remember the headlines." "Most times, they don't even read past them." " This being politics..." " Perception is reality." "Learning fast." "Don't worry about it, I live up to my promises." "You're my man." "Get used to it." "I see you at 8:00." "How'd things go with Mackey today?" "CLAUDETTE:" "Fine." "DUTCH:" "Good." "I missed you, too, okay?" "You happy?" "It doesn't matter to me." "CLAUDETTE:" "How was your day?" "Shane wants to hit the monster truck rally on Friday." "VIC:" "Got to stop meeting like this." "People are gonna talk." "Not about anything they heard from me." "Hey." "It might not feel like it but you did the right thing yesterday." "JULIEN:" "I'm not gay." " Julien, come on." " I'm not." "JULIEN:" "It's this thing inside of me." "I push it down, it goes away but then it comes back stronger." "I shove it down again, but it just keeps on coming back till I don't have the strength to push anymore." "God." "I am so weak." "I hate this thing inside of me." "[Toilet flushing]" "Julien." "You can't go through life hating who you are." "I pushed away everyone my partner, my reverend, Tomas." "I'm alone." "VIC:" "No, you're not." "You were there for me." "I'm there for you." "KIM:" "It is so nice to have someone else cook dinner." "It smells incredible." "DUTCH:" "Thanks." "One of the keys is basil." "You have to add it just before it's done, otherwise you'll cook the flavor out of it." " We wouldn't want to do that." " No." "[Laughing]" "DUTCH:" "Strainer?" "Today has been very emotional for you." "There's a lot of delayed grief pent up confusion, misplaced feelings." "I'm not gonna take advantage of that." "You wouldn't be." "Hey." "What's up?" "This whole IAD thing..." "I shut you out." "Looks like I was wrong." "This thing confused a lot of people." "Yeah, I know." "It killed my partnership." "It's not too late." "He's a good kid." "Maybe he deserves a second chance." "Most of us do." "[Laughs]" "DANNY:" "I'll see you." "VIC:" "Right." "DANNY:" "Sir." "GILROY:" "Danny." "The Strike Team's back in business, effective tomorrow." "VIC:" "Did you ever have any doubt?" "GILROY:" "I did this time." "I'm tired, Vic." "I just can't keep explaining these messes or cleaning up after them." "Ben." "GILROY:" "I'm not gonna let myself get burned." "We're done, Vic." "I just can't have your back anymore." "I thought I owed it to you to tell you."
