"How's she doing?" "No change." "Where are you guys on finding who did this?" "We ran the plates that Billy called in to dispatch when she made the stop, and it turns out they were stolen." "Witnesses?" "No." "None at all." "It's a traffic stop." "Routine." "She pulls some guy over, and this happens?" "I " "Maybe she is cursed." "Oh, come on, Frank." "I think we're all cursed when it comes to getting shot at." "It could happen to any cop, any of us." "Yeah, but I know that this happened to her, and I'm the one that put her out there." "You kill a guy, it affects you." "She's killed three in a year." "Instead of getting stapled to a desk," "I make it so she's back in uniform." "What the hell am I thinking?" "Don't." "Don't." "We got Mike's parole hearing tomorrow." "Yeah." "I got the word out." "We're gonna fill the room with cops." "The parole board's got to know that we're not gonna tolerate a cop who's gonna kill other cops out on the streets." "Okay, but listen, Frank." "If you get a chance, you got to ask the chairman for a sidebar, okay?" "Just you, the hearing officer, and Mike." "It's the best way to make your case and to keep Mike in prison." "I got to go." "I'll see you tomorrow." "All right." "Yeah, I got to go, too." "Bye." "Why don't you go home?" "I got two more things to do for Abby and one for you." "Then I'm going." "Okay." "How's your dad?" "You know him." "He's just happy I'm not in some alley shooting up again." "I got six months already." "Huh." "Well, if you're saying the same thing in 10 years," "I'll celebrate with you." "The bug's gone, like we thought." "They must have found it." "Yeah, I just got to get this, uh, this immigration file." "Okay, let's go." "Tommy." "Is she still in there?" "Paramedics said it was enough to O.D. on, but either the stuff wasn't very good, or her tissue tolerance is so high, it bought her some time." "I don't give a damn." "I trusted her, and she does this?" "Frank, she's got a story." "Every junkie's got a story." "Frank, I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." "I don't want to hear it." "Get your stuff, and get out." "Listen, please, Frank, I didn't do this to myself." "I didn't do it." "So, what is that?" "Fairy dust just magically appears?" "Frank, you need to calm down and just listen to her for a minute, okay?" "What?" "I WA" "I was closing up, and someone grabbed me, and they " "Nobody can just walk in here." "Front door's locked, security system on -- never gonna happen." "Well, I wouldn't exactly say "nobody."" "We found that bug in here two weeks ago, remember?" "Which is why we changed the security codes and put in cameras." "Well, maybe that's not good enough." "I checked the surveillance tapes, and they're blank." "The whole system shut down for two hours last night." "Tommy, she knows the system." "She could shut it down herself!" "Look, I get why you don't believe me." "I been lying my whole life, and I'm damn good at it." "I'm damn good at hiding it." "I hid it from everybody, so if I wanted to get high," "I sure as hell wouldn't do it here where you could catch me at it." "Come here." "All right, what do you think?" "You know, if we hadn't had that breach," "I wouldn't have believed her, but now I don't know." "All right, assuming this happened -- and I'm not saying it did -- does she have any idea who?" "She says her ex-boyfriend, Finn." "He works for a Russian pimp." "The guy thinks she owes him a lot of money." "Want to check him out?" "Yeah." "What about Mike's parole hearing?" "I'll deal with that." "Okay." "You know, maybe we should get our surveillance guy in here, do another bug sweep." "Why?" "Well, it could be this attack on Iris is just to throw us off our guard." "Tommy, if they wanted to bug us again, why not just wait till she leaves?" "Why bring attention to it?" "I don't know." "Something about this just feels wrong." "Fine." "Bring the bug guy." "Find Finn." "Okay." "Good luck at the hearing." "Mike Bodanski used the protection of the badge to rip off drug dealers, and he was willing to kill any cop that got in his way." "I don't know what the hell else there is to know." "You tell me, Frank." "You and every other cop in that hearing room objects to Mike's being released." "So, let's hear it." "All right, fine, how about this?" "You let him out, one day, Mike will kill a cop, and then I got to go to that dead cop's wife and explain that Mike could have been stopped if the parole board didn't put him back on the streets." "Sir, I understand how Frank feels about me." "I do." "I betrayed him." "I betrayed my fellow officers." "And above all, I betrayed the badge." "But I don't make any excuses for what I did." "I was wrong, but I think I have proved that I changed." "I joined Nick Babchenko's gang in here just so I could bring him down." "He was into drugs, prostitution, you name it, and all the profits were going to his father," "Yuri Babchenko, on the outside." "Now, if I was such a bad cop," "I would have just kept my mouth shut." "But with no thought to myself or my own benefit," "I chose to turn Nick in." "That's a great little speech." "All that proves is that you're a snitch and a liar and the same low-life thief that you ever were." "You let him out, every cop in this city's gonna remember you." "Sir, would you let Frank and I talk in private for a few moments?" "I was thinking the exact same thing." "What do you say, Frank?" "All right." "I want you to resolve this." "Take care of it." "You've got 10 minutes, or I will." "Your surveillance guy called here looking for you." "I told him you were at the parole hearing." "Did he find anything in the breakdown of security?" "Yeah, he says the hard drive for the video cameras that cover the union offices is corrupted." "That's why there's no image on there." "Can he retrieve the information?" "He's gonna try, and he's gonna bug-sweep your office." "Hey." "How'd the hearing go?" "They said we'll know tomorrow." "I thought you were out looking for Iris' ex-pimp-boyfriend." "Yeah, I think I got a line on him." "One of his hookers is meeting me in half an hour." "What?" "Look, Frank." "I got some news about Billy that you need to hear, okay?" "Is she all right?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "It's not that, okay?" "What?" "Preliminary tox came back on her." "She's all doped up on oxy, Frank." "I don't mean "just 'cause of her back" doped up." "I mean really doped up." "The two patrol cops who were first on the scene -- they found some things in her car." "They didn't give them to I.A. They figured you'd want to have them." "What kind of things?" "This is her bottle of oxy." "The prescription ran out on it two months ago, but there's still some pills in there, which means she's probably scoring them from off the street." "They also found this." "She was smoking it?" "Yeah." "Billy's a full-on junkie." "She's high, and I'm putting her back on the street?" "How the hell didn't I see that?" "Not just you, Frank." "None of us did." "Well, that's a different spin on her shooting, right?" "What, she owes some dealer some money, he gets pissed and takes her out?" "Yeah, that's where my head's at." "Got to get that to Alex and Jill." "I already asked Abby to go see Jill." "Maybe we're gonna finally get someplace with this." "Billy was smoking junk." "I'm gonna get in touch with drug squad, see who's been selling oxy." "Okay." "You know where Billy shot that guy in the clown wig?" "It's an open-air market for drugs, right?" "She was probably down there scoring." "Uh, looks like Frank's rubbing off on you." "Really?" "I'm not so sure that's a good thing." "What's the bad part?" "Frank will do anything to help a cop in trouble." "That should be a good part." "Even if it means crossing the line to do it?" "You don't think that takes its toll on him?" "Does it?" "He doesn't really show that side of himself to me." "I doubt you see it, either." "No." "You're right, I don't." "You know, this is the first time you've spoken more than 10 words to me without being pissed off." "What are we supposed to talk about, Jill, how Frank is in bed?" "No, you're just sharp, so I figured you knew about he and I." "I asked him." "He denied it, but, yes, I've known for a while." "It doesn't seem to bother you much." "It bothers me that you expect me to react in a certain way." "People's expectations of me have always been a problem, too." "Look, you and Frank were cops together, so you think you know each other better than anybody else does, which gives you a safe zone to go to." "And there's something wrong with that?" "Not at all." "But Frank and I are very much alike, as well." "He knows how to work the system, make deals, read people, even manipulate them." "That's what a lawyer's all about." "Anyway, Frank and I are just circling around a relationship, and that's fine with me." "Right." "You know, you surprise me." "I thought maybe you were in love with him." "No." "No, but I know you are." "Finn?" "Hey, Finn, you in here?" "Listen, Finn, my name's Tommy Dunn." "I'm from the police union." "Hey, Finn!" "I want to talk to you about Iris." "Come on, Finn." "I don't got all day." "Damn it, Finn!" "I'm not a cop!" "Don't shoot!" "So this guy Finn opens up on me, hits me right in the artificial leg." "I didn't even know it." "So, from now on, that's your lucky leg." "Yeah, sure, except now I need a new one." "So, car chases you down." "You get a license?" "I didn't have a chance." "This sounds like a setup to me." "I mean, some hooker tells you to come up this alley where Finn's waiting for you, and when he doesn't kill you, these guys try to run you over." "I mean -- It makes sense." "Somebody's on a mission." "Yeah, well, when I find this guy Finn, I'll be sure to ask him." "Speaking of finding guys, where are you on finding that guy that was selling oxy to Billy?" "The drug squad's beating the pavement." "They're gonna let me know as soon as they find something." "All right." "You take him down, I want to be there." "Okay." "You want me to get one of our guys into the evidence locker?" "Yeah, we got guns in there connected to homicides that aren't tied to any suspects." "I need one." "What for?" " Don't ask." " Like I don't know already." "Anyway, I'm gonna hit up that same hooker who sent me after Finn." "If it was a setup, she was in on it." "Yeah, find Finn, we'll know." "Hey." "I heard someone tried to run you over." "Are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm good." "Iris still here?" "Yeah, she wouldn't go home, Frank." "You have no idea how much she respects you." "She would do anything for you." "What about our security guy?" "He's upstairs sweeping my lawyers' offices." "And he found these bugs in my office, your office, and Tommy's office." "And he says all of our computers are embedded with spyware." "Somebody's looking over our shoulders." "All right, everybody, listen up." "There's been a security breach." "All the computers are corrupted." "I want everybody to stop what you're doing and go home." "Take your work." "Don't use your home computers." "Rent one, use your kid's, whatever." "But right now, just go home." "Okay, we're gonna get this sorted out, and somebody will be in touch." "Thank you." "I'll tell all the other floors." "Iris set me up with a new e-mail address." "Okay." "Frank." "Oh, yeah?" "Where?" "I'm on my way." "That was Alex." "They got a line on the dealer who was selling Billy the oxy." "You're gonna need that gun." "Oh, looky, looky what we got here, Frank." "Lots of oxy." "You're not a doctor, are you, Ray?" "Why'd you shoot that cop?" "She owe you money?" "I don't know what you mean, man." "The cop you were selling oxy to." "I never sold nothing to no cop, okay?" "All right, let's start again." "Remember the cop that shot that guy in the clown wig?" " Clown wig?" " Somebody gave you up, Ray." "You were getting robbed, and the cop shot the guy who was robbing you." "Wait, that chick was a cop?" "Stop it." "You know what?" "Just stop it." "You know who I am?" "I'm the guy that's gonna put you out of business for good." "Look what I found." "Come on, man, that's not mine." "See, but I say that it is." "And you know what?" "It's gonna turn out that this gun was used in a homicide." "Now, you can change your life right now." "You tell us why you shot that cop, this gun goes away." "All right, look, man." "Look, some guy just pulls up one day, puts a gun to my head, tells me to make sure this cop gets a steady supply of oxy." "He just drops like a thousand hits on me." "Did you see his face?" "No, I didn't." "No, but I seen his car, though, man." "He was driving some silver muscle car." "Silver muscle car." "Sounds familiar." "Same kind of car that went after Tommy." "All right, man, so, this gun goes away, right?" "This gun?" "No." "This is your gun." "I told you," "I'm putting you out of business for good." "Come on, man, you said." "Yo, man -- You know what?" "Shut up!" "Just shut up!" "Jill!" "Jill." "Billy's awake." "I can't believe I'm alive." "Well, we're happy you are." "Who did it?" "We were hoping that you could help us with that." "I don't remember very much." "You were doing radar." "You pulled over a car." "You remember that?" "I think, yeah." "Whoever was in that car shot you." "I remember a sign " ""Road Ends."" "I thought that was funny." "Do you remember what kind of car it was you pulled over?" "I don't know." "Think color." "It was silver..." "I think." "A silver muscle car." "Could you see who was inside the car?" "Two men in the front." "Did you see their faces?" "I don't know." "It was too quick." "All right." "That's enough for now." "You just rest." "Frank I'm alive, aren't I?" "Yeah, Billy." "You're alive." "Hey." "First Billy, then Iris, then Tommy." "Somebody's coming after me by coming after people close to me." "Question is, who?" "Well, you have no shortage of enemies since you took over the union, Frank." "Yeah, so who can I trust?" "Well, we know you can't trust the attorney general." "He's made no bones about trying to bring you down." "What about the mayor?" "You met with her." "Would she do something like this?" "Yeah, I don't know about her yet." "What about the chief?" "Ed?" "I don't think so." "He's too much of a political animal to try and engineer something like this." "All right, well, we still got to check in to him." "He counts on me, thinking that he needs me." "Okay, well, you've got no friends in the city council, but they're pretty much useless anyway." "So, what about " "What about somebody in the business community?" "There's lots of people there that hate my guts." "I'm dipping into their kickbacks from the city to pay for new cops." "Okay, so, what do you want to do about this?" "All right, starting right now, everybody gets a cop on them." "Nobody else gets hurt." "I'll make some calls." "We got to find that guy Finn that was trying to take out Tommy." "I'll hit up some of our old C.I.s." "Okay, is there anything else?" "Just think about it." "We've been over this, Frank." "We're gonna pull together, and we're gonna figure this out." "It takes time." "All right, well, these guys have been one step ahead of us this entire time, and that ends right now." "It's our turn." "Fine." "I got to go." "I got some paperwork to do tonight, so..." " Ok, you wanna give her a ride home?" " Sure." "No, no, that's okay." "It won't be necessary." "No, I'll take you home anyway." "Frank can lock up." "Frank, I've got my gun." "There's gonna be a patrol car outside your house." "I'll be over later." "See you tomorrow, partner." "Frank, you and I both know you can create a conspiracy out of anything." "So, what, your office being bugged -- that's just coincidence?" "All right, assuming you're right, who do you think's coming after you?" "Open the phone book." "Stab your finger on a page." "What are you doing about it?" "Right now, I'm protecting my people." "Other than that, waiting to see who it is to show themselves." "Well, you're working on their timetable." "Maybe you ought to set out some bait, you know, spring a trap." " Who's vulnerable that they haven't come after yet?" " No, no." "I am not putting anybody else in the line of fire." "I don't know what to tell you." "Ed, you and I have cleaned up this department, top to bottom." "We got a lot of the old-boy-brass network into early retirement." "Maybe somebody's holding a grudge." "Why don't you look into that?" "Hey, you just said you didn't want to put anybody else in the line of fire." "I assume that means me, too." "I'm not asking you to do anything you wouldn't normally do as a chief." "You can't start acting differently now." "Okay." "All right, that makes sense." "I'll see what I can dig up." "Hey, I'm good." "Okay?" "Yeah." "So, Wycoff came on board pretty easy, so he's either playing his usual political game, or he knows something about this." "Tough to tell right now." "Did you go over my old cases?" "Yeah." "There's definitely a lot of guys that want you dead, but none of the guys had, like, the juice or the brains to put together something like this." "All right, it was a long shot, but a shot we needed to take." "Um, Frank, look, I hate to say this, but I think the way to nail these guys is to wait till they make their next move against you." "Yeah." "Yeah, no, I agree." "Meantime, we look for Finn." "Where are you on finding that hooker that set you up?" "I checked in with all our old C.I.s, and no one's seen her, so she's in the wind." "As far as this Finn guy goes, no one's seen him, either." "The guy's gone underground." "All right, well, he's our best lead, so keep digging." "I'm on it." "Brings us to protection." "I'm gonna double up the backup on everybody." "There's gonna be cops the bad guys see and the ones that they don't." "You guys watch your six, okay?" "Alex, can I have a word?" "Sure." "What's up?" "We need another meeting with Babchenko." "Mm." "I don't know, Frank." "He's still pissed at you about his son getting busted in prison." "I know." "Finn's working for a Russian pimp." "We know what Babchenko thinks of Russian guys running hookers." "We need Babchenko to help us find Finn." "That's actually a very good idea." "I can't promise you anything, but I will try." "Thanks." "All right." "Rabbi's." "When?" "Okay, thanks." "That was Abby." "She just heard from the prosecutor's office." "Mike is being released from prison." "Mike got out of the prison this morning." "My son called to tell me." "Sorry about that." "Now you tell me you want me to help you find this man, uh, Finn." "He works for Russian pimps." "I know how much you hate Russian guys running girls." "I think you ask a lot for a man who has, uh... nothing to give anymore." "All right, Yuri, what do you want?" "I told you what I want." "I want you to personally kill Mike, and I want to be there when you do it." "I want to make sure it is you who puts a bullet in his brain." "If you are willing to do that," "I will help you." "It won't be right away." "It needs time to be set up properly." "If you're willing to wait..." "As long as I have your word that it will be done and you will do it." "You have my word." "Just getting some groceries." "Okay, yeah." "Aah!" "They just shot him." "I mean, they just shot that poor cop, Frank, and it's all my fault because he was here because of me." "He was doing his job." "He knew the risks." "Did he have a family?" "Oh, God." "It's not your fault." "We're gonna get the guys who did this." "You guys find witnesses?" "We got the guys who called for backup canvassing." "So far, nothing." "You know, I had them, Frank." "I just forgot everything that I knew about shooting." "Shooting a target's one thing." "A man's something else." "Even cops miss all the time, Abby." "Tommy's gonna run you to the hospital." "Will you just stay here with me a minute?" "Finn's in the trunk, right here." "He said they offered him 10 grand to help set up Tommy for a hit." "So far, that's all I got out of him." "Hey, Finn." "You set up my partner." " They're gonna kill me." " Who?" "Give me a name." "I don't have a name." "You said they were gonna kill you." "Why?" "They were pissed at me 'cause I didn't take out your partner, so I ran." "Who are they?" "Look, I don't know." "This guy doesn't know nothing." "Okay, Frank, you go home." "Aah!" "Aah!" "Take a look at this." "Those two guys coming after me -- they were I.A." "That's right, I.A., and they've been busy." "Look at that." "They come after my people, then they come after me." "Thank God you stopped them." "If these photographs had ever gotten out..." "Ed, open your eyes." "You see what's going on here?" "What do you mean?" "You remember Danny, that cop who was doing hits?" "He told me he wasn't the only cop killing people for money." "Then we got cops pushing steroids." "We got vice running hookers." "Now, that's way too many bad cops walking around like they're protected." "That only happens if somebody high up on the inside's being paid off." "And what?" "You think I knew about this?" "All I know is the department's been infiltrated." "I don't know who or how many." "It just runs deep." "We're targets here, Frank." "Are we, Ed?" "This is you and me in this photograph." "If they're coming after you today, they're gonna be coming after me tomorrow and the people around me." "I can't let that happen." "Whatever you want, you got it." "Good." "I'm counting on you for backup." "How do you want to handle this?" "Well, right now, there's a couple I.A. guys out there splattered all over the road." "That's my message -- you come after me, you come after the people I love, you're dead." "Madam Mayor." "What did Ed have to say about I.A. being involved?" "Exactly what you said he'd say -- that he didn't know." "Do you believe him?" "Do you?" "You've been trying to get rid of him for years." "Because he's inept." "But corrupt " " I don't know." "What do you think?" "I don't think that anything like this happens without somebody in the brass being involved." "There are eight deputy chiefs." "Could be any one of them." "Or more than one of them." "How did you leave it with Ed?" "That I knew what was going on, department's corrupt." "Do you think he suspects you have him on your radar?" "No." "If he thinks I believe him," "I need to keep him thinking that." "So, what are you gonna do?" "Put an end to it." "Can I make a suggestion?" "Don't do anything yet." "My people got hurt." "I can't do that." "Frank, you know better than anyone that intelligence is power." "Gather the intelligence, then you make your move." "First I need to know that you're in this with me and that I can trust you." "Yeah, you can trust me." "Will you let me in?" " You stay in the game no matter who it is." " So do you." "All right, you're in." "Burn them down, Frank." "The last one standing is the one you want." "So, where's the big man?" "Officers..." "Sorry to have to tell you -- we lost two of our guys today." "Frank Leo got the message." "But he's getting too close, and we're gonna have to back off." "But I promise you this -- Frank is going down." "He won't curtail our activities because he won't be alive long enough to hurt us." "And you are gonna be a big help with that." "Welcome back, Mike." "I promised you we'd get the guys that did this to you." "We did." "How is she?" "The same." "You get back inside?" "Yeah." "You talk to the mayor?" "She said, "Burn them all down." "The one left standing is the one you want."" "You think she's involved in this?" "We'll see who's left standing."
