"Previously on The Shield..." "The bosses are shipping grenades into L.A." "Get him off!" "Grenade!" "Guardo's gone." "Vic." "What the hell?" "Kavanaugh." "What did you tell him?" "That I saw your guy take the heroin." "That's it." "6 months, you could've warned me!" "Maybe all of us are going to jail because of you." "Without you, IAD's case goes away." "Jesus." "It's you." "You're trying to get Mackey running to me." "And I so want there to be trust between you two." "Oh, what the enemy of my enemy is my friend?" "They're gonna need a friend in a high place, that's you." "If Kavanaugh is successful," "I'm gonna scorch the earth covering this whole department, starting with you." "You ever hear of an Armenian money train?" "It's a money laundering operation of the Armenian mob." "I think the Strike Team ripped them off." "I heard you had a rough week, so I told John I'd stop by and check" "Your ex-wife's pussy tastes like sweet butter." "You're under arrest for possession of heroin with intent to distribute." "If I plead guilty to the heroin, without me, this whole deal's off." "He's got nothing on you guys." "I got Niners in every pen in the state." "So wherever he touches down, it will happen." "You sent Lem to Lompoc." "It's you that's the real murderer." "You don't have the stomach to serve Lem up to Antwon." "I didn't used to." "I'm taking him to the courthouse 9:00 tomorrow morning." "Listen, I gotta tell you something." "What?" "You're not going to prison." "Look, we made a deal with Antwon to get you safe passage inside." "It went bad." "Christ, what the hell am I supposed to do?" "We're gonna hide you locally." "You mean, put him on the run?" "Lem, right now, this is about keeping you alive." "No, no." "Lem, it's only temporary." "I promise you, man." "I promise you we're gonna make this work." "He screwed my ex-wife with the sole purpose of making this investigation seem like a personal vendetta." "You have 48 hours to tie up the loose ends." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "First of all, I need you to know," "I've always liked you." "From the first moment that we met at the school." "I hated that I wasn't able to tell you the truth about who I was." "Maybe if I had, you'd have a whole different picture of me." "I mean, you like me, right?" "Before you found out I was a, you know... you thought I was, like, a decent guy." "Yes." "Different circumstances, a different time," "Our relationship could've taken a different turn." "I'm just really, really tired, you know?" "I haven't been able to eat lately." "Why aren't you guys inside?" "Lem's not here yet." "Where is he?" "He's already 1/2 hour late." "He'll be here." "How are you this morning?" "I'm OK." "He didn't leave a message." "If I was going to jail for 18 months," "I wouldn't be in a rush either." "Give him some time." "I've made you coffee, and I've been patient." "You need to go." "OK, stop." "Stop." "Stop!" "Don't touch me!" "You're right." "That's good." "That's good." "Why are you still here?" "Because there's nowhere else." "You see how lonely he's made both of us?" "I'm not lonely." "I'm moving on with my life." "You need to do the same." "No." "Not until there's justice." "You need to let this go." "You need to let it go." "No, don't." "Cause nobody ever fights back against him." "Nobody ever takes his punch and just smacks him one right back." "You need to leave." "If I take this fight to him... and I win." "I need to know that you're gonna be OK." "Because I don't want you to hurt anymore." "What are you talking about?" "Would you be all right... without him?" " No." " Mom?" "What's going on?" "Your mom, she's a very good person." "She's a... very good person." "Kavanaugh was here?" "All morning." "Yeah." "He said he wanted to ask me a few questions to wrap up this case, but... did he try to touch you?" "Why would you ask that?" "What did he say?" "Well, he was desperate and kind of lonely, and I felt bad for him, and then out of nowhere, he said he was coming after you, and that he wanted to make sure me and the kids would be OK" "If something happened to me." "This is about Lem." "He didn't show up at court to turn himself in." "Where is he?" "Nobody knows." "He's a fugitive." "Kavanaugh probably figures I had something to do with it." "No, I didn't." "He's just pissed because his case against Lem tanked." "He's making it personal." "He wants to hurt me through you." "Please, don't let him in this house again." "All right?" "All right." "Be careful." "Always." "Where's Lemansky?" "I don't know." "You screwed him once, and now you've done it again." "Putting him on the run." "Didn't they kick your ass out of the Barn?" "You aid and abet him, you communicate with him in any way without reporting it, you'll be put in prison along side him." "We had nothing to do with this." "My office will have eyes on all of you, every second of every day until Lemansky's caught." "Thank you... for bringing me back into your life." "POSTPARTUM" "All right, where are we with those errands?" "Spoke to our federale buddy, who took Doomsday off our hands." "He's gonna meet Lem in TJ, get him to a safe house in Ensenada." "That's wall-to-wall wetbacks." "Surfer Boy will be a little obvious." "He'll be on the move." "Taco Cop's got a brother owns a goat ranch in the mountains north of San Ignacio." "It's a really good place to get lost." "How much?" "It's two grand." "And a call on our services to be determined later." "I can't wait." "What about living expenses?" "Got a line on wire transfers to Guatemala." "How secure?" "Enough to keep it off immigration's radar." "Used to pay coyotes mostly." "He's gonna need cash." "It's gonna be his only leverage." "Let me work on that." "Now all we need is a way to get him across the border." "How are we gonna pull that off, man?" "Kavanaugh and his cronies are watching us 24/7." "We're gonna pull it off the way we always do." "Right under their noses with a goddamn smile." "Claudette." "We were working something else." "Not anymore." "You've got history with these grenade tossers." "Any victims?" "Just a half dozen crown vics." "You've tangled with some well-armed Salvadorans before, right?" "The guy who imports the grenades is named Guardo." "We hit him hard and his weapons stash, but he got away." "Looks like he didn't go far." "Agent Gallagher." "DEA." "Captain Wyms." "Farmington division." "This is our lot." "We've been running an op on the El Salvadorans out of the travel agency." "Someone wants to move up to first class." "Detective Mackey and his team busted some of that gang a week ago." "Swept up a bunch of grenades, MP5s, a few top level lieutenants." "And let their playmaker, Guardo, slip out from under your nose." "We're here to assist." "Great." "Start directing traffic." "If a grenade goes off on my turf, you get help whether you like it or not." "Don't step on our toes, we'll stay off yours." "What an asshole." "Rawlings did burn them." "So now's our chance to make it up." "Track down whatever you can find." "Run everything by me." "And Vic, that renegade shit's not gonna fly on my watch." "But you already knew that." "Looks like a new sheriff just limped into town." "She's smart." "She keeps tabs on us from her end," "DEA keeps an eye on us from the other." "I don't give a shit about neither." "We'll follow up on this, but finding Lem safe passage to Mexico is still priority one." "Hey, hello?" "Hey, open the door." "Open the door now." "Hey, it's OK." "It's OK." "Where's your mommy?" "Where's your mommy?" "Hey, buddy, what's your name?" "What's his name?" "Wendell." "Wendell, will you let me wash it off for you?" "Shh." "It's OK." "It's gonna be all right, buddy." "It's all right." "It's gonna be OK." "It's just a little cut." "Here we go." "It's all right." "What the hell's going on in here, guys?" "It's OK." "It's all right." "Lisa." "Call the police." "It's OK." "I'm a cop." "Lisa, there's a gun." "Call the police!" "Come here, come here." "Hold this tight." "Hold it till someone gets here, OK?" "Are you calling?" "Yo." "Hey." "We're cops." "We're cops." "Get up!" "Get him down." "Let me see your hands." "What do you want?" "Some of our Salvadoran amigos went all Superdome on a DEA parking lot." "Turned some crown vics into some scrap metal." "I'd start talking before he goes Superdome on your head." "The DEA's been up our ass." "Busted our number two Osorio." "Bosses sent a message to the feds." "That's the third Mexican that gave up that it's payback for busting Osorio." "Which means it can't possibly be true." "Soldiers have been fed their cover story, but what's the truth?" "I think Kavanaugh found Lem's trailer." "What?" "Sheriff's department got called to the trailer park on a disturbance." "Cliff says Kavanaugh's on his way there now." "Your pal say anything about Lem?" "No." "Radio blackout, but something's poppin'." "Kavanaugh's poking around, man." "What else could it be?" "Look, we would've heard something if they arrested him." "Maybe." "Maybe not." "Who knows with Kavanaugh." "Maybe they found him, and he was..." "There's no way he'd eat his gun." "No way." "We told him not to contact us at any cost." "We're in no man's land." "Best case scenario, he's on the run with Kavanaugh on his ass." "Look, man." "Lem knows the score." "He's gonna meet us tonight, get supplies, which means we gotta pull our shit together to get his ticket out of here by then." "The truth is, this could be good bye." "Come on." "Well... he been runnin' that way." "This is it?" "This the man you saw?" "Yeah, that's him." "So... what happened?" "I heard something." "Came outside, saw him in the trailer." "Saw the kid bleeding." "Did he say anything to you?" "He said he was a cop." "The whole thing seemed pretty weird so I had my lady called the real cops." "What then?" "Oh, he was off and running." "Funny thing was, big guy like that with a gun and all, he still looked awful scared." "Yeah, it's funny." "What's this?" "Your former C.I. says she's got information on the demolished DEA cars." "Well, give her to the feds." "We don't want her." "I tried." "She'll only talk to you." "Kavanaugh cut me loose, Vic." "I'm not working for him no more." "Now that you've stabbed one of my guys with an indictment." "You need another PD tit to suck on?" "It's real good intel." "It's not my dime." "Your call." "Give us a minute." "I know she's the one Kavanaugh had testify against Lem." "It's all bullshit." "She as inside as she says?" "See what the story is." "Make sure she sticks around the Barn where I can see her." "Blowing up those DEA cars wasn't retaliation." "Nothing we don't know." "Guardo's play for drug protection's paid off." "Colombians have a huge shipment coming up from Mexico." "Hired him and his crew to guard it." "The feds feel like they were making a dent in the Salvadoran drug game." "Meanwhile, something else is going on underneath their noses." "Yeah." "Guardo's a crazy shithead." "Any excuse to blow something up." "When and where?" "Tonight." "Going through a grocery import guy." "Aldo Melchor." "The importer." "He Salvadoran?" "Mexican." "Need a place and a time." "That's all I got." "That's real good information though." "If it's true." "Not just another chance for you to help Kavanaugh to nail us again." "No." "I never wanted to help Kavanaugh." "Right." "Now who's the source of your intel?" "You never needed to know that before." "I trusted you before." "Fine." "I want to get paid up front then." "I need money to get out of L.A." "Take Sebastio, head up to Seattle, be with my sister." "I'm so happy you got a little plan." "What about Lem?" "He gonna head up to Seattle?" "Live with your sister, too?" "Oh, that's right." "He can't." "Because he's gonna be in prison." "I'm sorry." "Vic took care of you." "He fed you and your kid for months." "And you were sticking us the whole goddamn time." "No!" "You see this?" "I slept with this scumbag Ignacio to get this info for you, OK?" "Then two of his buddies joined in." "Ripped me up pretty bad." "If you... made different choices from the beginning... none of us would be ripped up right now." "Becca." "Come on, make it look like we're on a date." "I can't do anything to help you escape the police." "Make it look like a lovers quarrel then." "Look, the only advice I can give you legally is to turn yourself in now." "That's exactly what I want to do." "Then we're on the wrong side of town." "Look, I need assurances." "You're not exactly in a position" "I need to do my time someplace where the One-Niners and Antwon Mitchell can't get to me." "Federal prison back east." "The feds aren't calling this and going fugitive means the original deal's gone." "Then I'll plead to new federal charges." "I'll tell them all the shit that I did." "You can't just serve them your head on a platter either." "Kavanaugh's not gonna stop until he's carving me up." "Tell them that I ripped off an Armenian money laundering operation, stole cash that was part of a federal sting." "I'll plead to that." "You did this by yourself?" "Yeah." "Listen to me." "They're going to insist on Vic and the others." "I got nothing to say about them." "Then why are you running?" "I'm not running." "I'm giving myself up." "All right, I'm ending it." "You want a new deal, they'll want new information." "I'm giving them new information on myself." "You are not hearing me." "There will be no deal until you give them more than you." "Curtis, please, you listen to me." "You have got to think about yourself." "This one time." "It's your only option." "Now, Vic told me that you guys sometimes would spread around some drug money to keep peace on the streets." "Listen to me, this Armenian thing was armed robbery." "People got killed." "And they weren't the only ones." "You think it was all just pawning off some drug money to keep the streets quiet?" "I can't tell the truth about the others because... they'll throw us away for the rest of our lives." "Open your goddamn eyes to who we are." "People got killed?" "This is all attorney/client privilege." "Detective Terry Crowley." "You've heard enough." "Just get me my deal, do my time back east." "Then I'll turn myself in." "I'll call you in a few hours." "Ow!" "Goddamnit!" "Piece of shit just scalded my hand." "Could've been user error." "If you can push through the pain, we've got a woman assaulted on Vermont." "Let's roll." "Get a statement from her." "Um, you're not pairing me up with him." "You're the only two singles on the floor." "Consider it permanent." "Cross Street, 7th." "Hey, it's no great joy for me, either." "I'm gonna put some ice on this." "6 months I kept this place running smooth as silk, and for what?" "No commendation, no letter for my package, not even a "hey, Steve, way to go."" "It's humiliating." "Welcome back." "See?" "No respect." "Wyms is even moving my desk where everybody can get a good gander at Caesar lying in a puddle of blood." "In this story, you're Caesar?" "Did I get stabbed in the back or not?" "Um, I'm driving." "I get nauseous in the passenger seat." "Why don't you apply for a transfer?" "Show them they can't kick you around." "No, I got this commute all figured out." "Besides, it's only 56 months 'til I retire." "And then I get out of this shithole for good." "Aldo Melchor?" "Hey, let me see your hands!" "Easy, easy." "It's a knife." "To cut my chorizo." "It's OK if I have my lunch?" "As long as it's finger food." "What can I do for you, officers?" "Rumor has it you import more than just chorizo from down south." "Everything in this store is legal." "Really?" "You won't mind if we stick around and monitor your import-export." "I close at 7:00." "Not tonight." "You're gonna stay open until that shipment of coke arrives." "We're just gonna hang out." "Provide a little after hours security." "Salvadorans realize you snitched on them, they're gonna grind you into chorizo." "Sell you by the quarter pound like the rest of the sausage you got down there." "Is there something I can do for you?" "Tell us what time the shipment comes." "We'll keep you out of it." "Bust the Salvadorans after they leave." "Keep your pipeline up and running." "What else?" "Obviously, you can import." "Your exporting skills better be just as good." "I've stayed in business 15 years." "We have a little package we want to overnight to Mexico." "How big is it?" "About 6'2"." "Just heard." "There's a good-looking kid." "His name's Lee." "After my dad." "Congratulations." "Yeah." "Thanks." "You good?" "Do you need anything?" "My mom's coming tomorrow." "My two brothers, this weekend." "I got more help than I know what to do with." "Cash from the baby pool." "Pretty shrewd." "Not revealing the baby's daddy." "Want to hold him?" "Sure." "Hey..." "Shh." "OK." "OK." "We didn't find one of..." "Everyone thought you could use it more than anyone else, so..." "It's almost 3 grand." "My evil plan worked." "Tell everyone I said, thank you." "When he's old enough and he asks," "I'll tell him." "But for now, I just..." "When he's old enough." "Hey." "Yo." "You want to tell me what the hell Becca's doing up there?" "Talking to Kavanaugh and Aceveda." "Can you think of any scenario where that's a good thing?" "Curtis Lemansky is prepared to turn himself in." "If you've talked to him, you have an obligation to tell us where he is." "I know my obligations." "I don't know where he is." "Curtis knows where the Barn is if he wants to turn himself in." "He couldn't turn himself over to you for reasons that involve his safety." "Any cop who's incarcerated faces those risks." "He knew that." "He made his choice when he broke the law." "This was a calculated move by lieutenant Kavanaugh to put Curtis' life in jeopardy to compel him to testify against his team." "Any proof of that?" "Look, the department wants to mitigate the damage." "And when Lemansky didn't show up for processing, the chief handed authority over to my police committee." "All we're asking for is protection." "At least until I have a chance to investigate his claims against lieutenant Kavanaugh." "And after that?" "He'll accept the previous deal." "As long as we can reasonably guarantee his safety." "He can't have the same deal." "He ran away from that deal, and if the council signs off, they're gonna want more." "My client is willing to plead to new charges." "But he wants his choice of federal prisons." "What's he have to say about his friends?" "Nothing." "Not good enough." "I have to run this up a few ladders, so... give me 'til the end of the day." "Look, I'll find him first." "Then we can dictate the terms." "I need bodies, though." "I want two surveillance teams on Mackey and his guys in case they try to help Lemansky escape." "You burned your bridges with the chief." "I need my people on the street." "Becca." "Becca." "What happened with Lem, is he all right?" "Privileged information." "Tell me he's OK." "Well, at least tell me what's wrong." "Wait." "Don't touch me." "Haven't you done enough damage yet?" "Becca, come on." "Come on." "Let's go somewhere and talk." "Talk about armed robbery of an Armenian money laundering operation?" "Talk about murdering Terry Crowley?" "I told you." "Yes, you did." "And now, I know the truth." "I let you touch me." "It makes me sick." "Becca, I don't know what Lem told you..." "No more explanations." "It's all bullshit." "You've lied so much you forgot what the truth is." "Was I lying to you last night?" "I don't ever want to think about last night." "You know, I was worried about what I'd do if I had to choose between being Curtis's lawyer or your friend." "Not anymore." "Did you see the guy who attacked you?" "No." "He just came up from behind me and started hitting me." "I was trying to cover my face." "This area can get pretty rough even in daylight." "What were you doing here besides prettying up the place." "Um, I'm a volunteer tutor at the community center on the corner." "I was trying to help some kids, you know." "We're gonna have you come in, look at some pictures." "But why?" "I told you, I didn't see him." "Maybe you saw more than you think." "Is that really necessary?" "Excuse us for a minute." "Send her home." "If she remembers anything, she can call us." "Well, figure out another way to get her phone number because I'm bringing her in." "I was acting captain, remember?" "I'm making the call." "Hey, I talked to the owner of the store across from where Tori was attacked." "He see anything?" "She saw them arguing, she went in the back, when she came out, the guy had Tori on the ground and was hitting her." " You get the description?" " I got an I.D." "Owner says the guy's a curb jockey." "Sits in a green cab most days waiting for fares by the intersection." "Yeah, well, miss pretty thing never said anything about arguing with the guy." "No." "I know she didn't." "We should take another run at Tori." "Maybe she'll ask you to give her a hug." "Let's wait." "Bring the suspect in first." "Uh, yes, yes." "I'd like to talk to the owner of the vending machines at the Farmington police station." " Hey, it's Curtis." " Hi." "Look, I'm kind of in a hurry." "What's going on?" "You're in a holding pattern." "They said they'd take your offer under advisement, but gave no indication when or what the answer might be." "Jesus Christ." "OK, look." "I need you to get a message to Vic." "That would be breaking the law." "Shit." "All right." "Forget it." "Forget it." "It's gonna be worse if they catch you." "Now that I've told them what you want." "They know there's more shit to uncover." "Kavanaugh will show no mercy." "I know." "There is one other option though." "What?" "Witness protection." "And you tell them everything." "Witness protection." "The entire truth." "Imagine." "You'll be free of the lies, the running." "People pay a price for what they did." "I can't." "I can't." "Curtis, you're the one with the heart." "Now, use your head." "This isn't about my goddamn heart." "I'm just trying to help you here, Curtis." "No, you're trying to get me to turn on my family." "Please, just get me my deal." "He held out as long as he could." "He's still holding." "He didn't want to run in the first place." "He would run before he would rat." "How do they know about the money train?" "Educated guess." "There's always been plenty of suspicion, just never any proof." "Unless Lem gave it to them." "We know Lem, look... if he had a change of heart, he would've tipped us." "He wouldn't if his deal meant us going down." "Look, I'm not saying that it happened." "I'm just saying are we willing to bet our freedom that it didn't." "I'm not gonna believe it 'til I see it with my own eyes." "Lem's not contacting us to protect us." "We're gonna meet him tonight at midnight, and he's gonna travel tonight." "That's it." "OK." "On whose nickel?" "This spic cop doesn't take American Express." "It's already taken care of." "I told Mara that Lem was in trouble." "She felt very strongly that we needed to help him." "So we pulled a little cash out of the house." "I mean, it's not a lot, but..." "Hey, 5 grand ought to keep him in burritos and beer long enough, man." "Yeah." "All right." "Go get this cashed." "Keep half of it for tonight." "Put the rest on the wire." "Lem must've said something to Becca about Terry, too." "All that gives Kavanaugh is a little more suspicion." "Doesn't mean we're gonna catch a case." "Let alone a needle." "Lem starts talking, it puts teeth in an otherwise empty rumor." "These people, every time they look at us, they're gonna see two cop killers." "That's on me." "Terry was a decision that we both made." "I forced it on you." "Now you're in Kavanaugh's crosshairs." "That's on me." "Lem's gonna have to hide under a rock for the rest of his life." "That's on me, too." "I know that." "And skewering yourself is helping Lem how?" "How's that gonna help any of us?" "You made a call, and that call was to protect the team." "That couldn't have gone down any other way." "It's done." "It's done." "Now is he still on our side against Kavanaugh?" "I'm gonna find out." "You!" "What the hell was that pow-wow upstairs about?" "Call me later." "I'm running out of later." "Now." "Are you and me still allies against Kavanaugh?" "Or do I pull out my flame thrower and start that scorched earth plan that I talked to you about?" "Becca's being a good lawyer." "Lem wants to turn himself in if he can get his original deal back, but Kavanaugh won't sign off on it." "He's gonna file new charges for him running." "I thought Kavanaugh was out of the picture." "He was until Lem didn't show." "And now, the chief's believing that Kavanaugh was right." "He's giving him back all his power." "What about Lem?" "He'll let him twist in the wind?" "Claudette's gonna call the D.A., but she's waiting as long as she can to give Kavanaugh a chance to find Lem." "That's all I know." "You got to throw a wrench in the works." "You wanted an inside guy for intel." "You got one." "You need help aiding and abetting a fugitive, find someone else." "What happened to your face?" "Nothing." "What happened to yours?" "Where were you at 8 AM this morning?" "Driving." "Working." "On what, your right cross?" "Witness says you attacked Tori Birke." "Also says you two had an argument first." "What was that about?" "You just think you can go around beating women on the street?" "How do you know her?" "She take your cab?" "You stalking her or something?" "OK, your thing is just knocking the shit out of random, total strangers." "Works for me, Gilbos." "So I..." "so I picked up a hooker." "I'm not the only guy who's had to bust out of a slump." "Doesn't mean I deserved to get rolled and robbed." "Say again?" "She set me up." "Soon as I got my clothes off, and my dick hard," "These two black guys ran in." "Started smashing me up." "Took everything." "The woman you attacked is a volunteer tutor for at risk kids." "She was on her way to a session when you jumped her." "That whore flagged my cab." "OK, offered me anything in the book for a "C" note." "Picked the motel." "Then had her buddies steal my wallet and a chain my mother gave me." "So I gave her a little payback." "Arrest her ass, not mine." "So, did you find him?" "We did." "Good." "So I guess that means that I can go now, and you'll just let me know if you need me in court or anything?" "We talked to people at the community center." "You volunteer there at least 3 days a week?" "Yeah." "I read to disadvantaged kids." "Are you a prostitute, Tori?" "Maybe in your fantasy I'm a prostitute." "All right, you know what?" "If I'm gonna be insulted on top of assaulted," "I think I'd-- I think I'd like to leave." "OK." "We need to ask you a few more questions." "You're a suspect in a separate assault and robbery." "I'd like to see my legal counsel." "All right." "They're moving blow into the van." "Still no sign of Guardo?" "They'll lead us to him." "That's the second time that car's passed by here tonight." "What the Mexi chicks in the el camino?" "They don't look like Kavanaugh's boys." "I think we're all right." "Hey." "Wire transfer went through." "Meet and greet in TJ Is confirmed." "Now he just need to get Lem on board." "OK, good." "Almost home." "They're on the move." "Hey." "Come on." "Pairing me up with Billings." "You know a guy like that is gonna throw me off my game." "You'll adjust." "I'm filing for a transfer." "Dutch." "No." "I'm serious." "Things haven't been the same between us." "Even before you got captain." "There is no reason why we can't work this out in a new way." "Yes, there is." "The only reason I was hanging around here was because we were partners, and that's gone." "I'd just like to move on." "OK." "I'll prepare the paperwork." "OK." "Check this out." "Tori has an MBA from UCLA." "Worked as an account manager at a brokerage firm until she was fired 6 months ago." "What for?" "Her work started to get sloppy, and she stopped showing up half the time." "But no arrest." "Yeah, if she's a hooker, she had me fooled." "And I can usually smell them." "This guy is here for Tori Birke." "I'm her legal counselor." "And what are your credentials" "Mr. Wallis, esquire?" "What I have is a client." "And I need to see her immediately." "Now, do I get to see her now?" "Or do I file for a dismissal?" "She's in 2." "Show him up." "I'll check him out." "I'm getting a whiff of something now." "Gallagher's DEA bozos are tied up in a sting in Compton, and they're a little short on cars." "Maybe in a few hours." "We can't wait that long." "We gotta meet Lem." "What about back-up from the Barn?" "There's a manhunt on Curson." "Byz-Lats shot a grocery clerk, and there's no units to spare." "We gotta go in." "There are 6 of them at least." "We don't know how many more inside." "Lem's gonna be waiting on us." "Who's coming?" "Get down!" "Down on the ground!" "On the floor!" "On the floor!" "Don't move!" "Get down on your knees." "Hands up!" "I got rabbits!" "Let them run." "Get up." "Let's go." "Hands on your head." "Hands on your head." "You all right?" "Yeah." "Let's go." "Right now." "On the ground." "On the ground right now." "How many of these things these guys got?" "Claudette's so hot for these guys, she can book them herself." "We gotta go get Lem." "Yes, yes." "I still want to hold." "Tyrez Wallis is no more a lawyer than I am a figure skater." "Really?" "So Dutch's girlfriend's got a pimp?" "You know, they've been up there awhile." "Dutch, let's go." "No, no." "I want the name of the owner of these machines right now, or you will be sitting in a holding cell for as long as it takes me to track it down." "Dutch, let's go." "Hang it up." "You own those machines?" "I was just filling a need." "Isn't it illegal for department employees to profit from things like vending machines?" "Especially when you use your position as acting captain to create a defacto monopoly?" "I think it's more of a gray area than that." "I don't think so." "I think it's more black and white." "All right, so what now?" "You gonna snitch me out to Wyms?" "Like I haven't been shithammered enough around here." "Is that what this is gonna be?" "I don't know what I'm gonna do yet." "Attorney/client privilege?" "It's illegal to practice law in the state of California without a license, counselor." "What do you think?" "Did I need anymore practice?" "Bomb Squad's on a crank call at some westside abortion clinic." "They'll pick up the grenades later." "I told you to call in every move." "You were outnumbered three to one." "They were getting ready to bolt." "Split up in two vans." "We had no choice." "Sorry I missed all the action." "Good work." "Just wish we were able to nail Guardo." "He's been staying off the frontlines these days." "Probably feeling the heat from you guys." "Two busts in as many weeks." "He's feeling your heat." "And I've seen what they do when they get pissed." "Better watch your crown vics." "You should be warning him." "Not me." "Thanks." "Glad you caught the guys." "Actually, we didn't nail Guardo." "I'll see if I can find something out." "You find another tip, find another buyer." "Please don't be this way." "I'm sorry I made that deal." "Helped Kavanaugh." "You should go." "I did it for Sebastio." "You'd do the same thing for your kids, too." "Take your rat money, your retarded rat baby kid, and get on the first bus" "Don't you say that about my boy!" "What?" "You gonna let him talk about Sebastio that way?" "I showed you mercy once, and it ruined my friend's life." "Not gonna happen again." "Get out." "The police committee is willing to consider a deal." "But like I thought, they insist on adding more time." "How much?" "Maximum of 10 years with parole in 4 if he turns himself in immediately." "What about the safety issue?" "He'll be held in protective custody." "Until it's all sorted out, but there's no guarantee of location." "Unless you can prove your claims." "What about the others?" "No condition about him giving us something on them?" "We want to put this behind us." "Now if he's caught before he comes in, all bets are off." "Excuse me." "What's going on, man?" "What was that?" "It wasn't my choice." "It's what the police committee wanted." "If we don't find Lemansky before he comes in, or he gets out of the country, we're gonna lose our last... chance at nailing Vic before this case seals off." "What do you want me to do, Jon?" "He trusts you now, right, when it comes to me?" "Maybe." "I want you to scare him." "I want you to make Vic lead us to him." "How?" "We both failed at trying to nail Mackey on old business." "They don't crack." "They don't turn on each other." "Good for them." "The way to get him is we gotta catch him in the act." "With Lemansky AWOL," "Vic knows he's got eyes and ears all over him." "He's not gonna do anything stupid." "Unless he thinks he's got one last mess to clean up." "What mess?" "There's a detective I spoke to here." "He suspects that the Strike Team robbed an Armenian money train." "Wagenbach." "Yeah, but he doesn't know it was Dutch." "You gotta make him believe that Lemansky gave it up for witness protection." "It'll put him in motion." "We follow him." "We catch him trying to help Lemansky escape and nail them for harboring a fugitive." "It won't be the amount of time that they deserve, but it'll be enough time to make them lose their badges, and get them off the street." "Catch them in the act." "That's gonna give us leverage." "Lemansky, he may have held his tongue, but the other ones, they might not be as strong." "David." "It's time to put the mess that Mackey made behind both of us." "Lemansky's talking." "That's bullshit." "Is the Armenian money train bullshit?" "Because that's what he gave them." "He's coming clean." "There's nothing to come clean about." "That explains where your 65,000 unaccounted for dollars comes from, huh?" "Look, he's tired." "He's scared." "He doesn't want to die at the hands of Antwon Mitchell." "The D.A. said he's got to give them something on the team." "I guess he's agreed." "Lem would never agree to that." "D.A. gave him no choice." "He has to give you guys up." "And now all this bullshit can blow back on me." "Now you gotta get a message to your boy." "Tell him to shut the hell up." "Can you do that, hmm?" "If you can speak to him, can you convince him to keep his mouth shut?" "Yes." "Then do it, for Christ's sake." "I don't know where he is." "You know, Kavanaugh is out of control." "With Lemansky unaccounted for, he's got the chief's ear." "And now the D.A. is smelling blood." "All of ours." "I shouldn't be telling you any of this, but you've threatened me, so now I've told you everything I know." "Now start cleaning this up." "We'll look the other way on solicitation, but you gotta make a statement about Spank's involvement in the robbery and the beating." "Do a little time yourself for the stick-up." "No." "Spank wasn't there when the cabbie got rolled." "If you're afraid of Spank, we'll protect you." "He will not hurt you." "You guys just see pimp and hooker." "That's not who we are." "Yeah, says the hooker letting pimp daddy drag her into the shit with him." "No, actually, he dragged me out." "He dragged me out of the steaming shitpiles of a superficial, empty... everything." "And then he hosed me off, and he held me." "And he made me whole." "I had nothing." "I was nothing." "Before I met him." "According to your sister, you had a pretty nice condo." "You equate a roof over your head to love?" "What exactly does equal love?" "Do you see the wrinkles on my face?" "Do you see them?" "Yes." "Well, Spank doesn't." "I understand you not wanting to be away from your, uh... boyfriend." "But what do you think is gonna happen when you go to jail?" "Because we both know that your man is just gonna set his sights on the next piece of Century City ass that comes his way." "Shut your mouth!" "Shut your goddamn mouth!" "Who do you think you are?" "You don't know us." "You don't know us." "How dare you." "Let go of me!" "No, no, no." "Let's just sit down." "You don't know me!" "Let go of me." "Sit down." "The girl just gave you up." "Says it was all your idea, and you're the one that beat up the John." "I know that didn't happen." "Oh, she put the claws in you, right?" "You shouldn't let no woman do you like that." "Someone like Tori." "Smart, educated, good job." "How do you turn out a girl like that?" "Any punk can get some crack ho to go down on dick." "But how do I get a little pink toe from Westwood to do what I say whenever I say." "Every chick's got a hole in her heart." "And it's connected to the one between her legs." "I just figure out how to fill it." "And then I feed it to her." "And I keep feeding it to her." "'Til it's overflowing." "Until she can't live without it." "And then, I take it away." "That makes me God." "Tori was easy." "Her fiance left her last year for some young blood bitch." "I just kept telling old girl she was still the prom queen like back in the day." "And that white faggot dude, he didn't have eyes to see." "Sooner or later, all bitches break." "Every goddamn one." "That's if you got game." "And that's why she's your whore?" "If you born a woman, I can make you my ho." "Which is why she's saying" "I had nothing to do with no illegal shit." "Now that y'all got some pimpology, no charge, my black ass is out of here, right?" "Anyone here believe Lem cut a deal?" "Maybe he felt like he had no choice." "I mean, he's out there in the wind alone." "Becca's probably pushing it." "He has no idea about this ranch in San Ignacio." "Or the money we're gonna be funneling to him." "Becca told you he took a deal?" "No." "Aceveda." "Aceveda?" "He's got a stake in this, too." "Not like we do." "He could be full of shit, man." "Look, the truth is, we can't know what's inside Lem's head until we see him face to face." "We need an exit strategy." "How are we gonna get out of this?" "We don't need an exit strategy." "We need to fill Lem in." "On the cash, the ranch." "The lines of communication." "He's right." "You know Lem, he's been in the dark as much as we've been." "And if Lem is talking, it's because he believes that Antwon has marked him as a dead man behind bars." "Now, once he knows what we've pulled together for him, he'll go along." "He will." "We go to the spot." "If he doesn't show... assume he made the deal." "And then what?" "If he does show, then we'll take his temperature." "And make sure he's still solidly on board." "He'll be on board." "Lem trusts us." "He trusts us." "And I still trust Lem." "I do." "Where's Vendrell?" "Shit." "They're taking different cars." "I'll take Mackey." "Ronnie, I got a tail." "I'm trying to lose him." " You sure?" " It's pretty far back but he's there." "Watch your back, man." "Looks like I got one, too." "Call Shane." "Give him a heads up." "Yeah." "Vic and I both have tails." "Shit." "Yeah, I'm looking." "We gotta lose him without looking like we're trying to lose him." "Take your time." " We can't lead Kavanaugh to Lem." " I don't see anyone on me yet." "Vic says, whoever loses his tail first, gets to Lem, moves him someplace safe, 'til we can all regroup." "Got it." "Jesus, am I glad to see you." "Man, how you doing?" " We gotta get out of here." " What's going on?" "Kavanaugh's got a tail on Vic and Ronnie." "He could have an eye up in the sky." "Follow me to the old body shop that closed down." "The one on Mission, OK?" "All right, man." "Captain." "I've been reviewing officer Hanlon's package." "Julien's T.O. report." "You ignored a recommendation for dismissal." "Right." "You know, with all due respect to Julien, you'll find, as I did, that he's a little tightly wound." "Suffice it to say," "I felt he was too tough on Tina, and she deserved a second chance." "Two counts of excessive force, contamination of crime scenes, failure to identify an undercover officer in the field." "Seems more like a sixth chance." "She's still learning her field work." "But her instincts are good." "That's why Dutch agreed to take her under his wing." "She's very intuitive." "I'm calling her PBA rep." "Start the paperwork for dismissal." "You know, you may not want to do that." "Tina and I, we... made an arrangement." "Someone was ripping off the gourmet quick-mealer." "I figured it was an inside job, so I put a nanny cam in the locker room." "There are photos of officer Hanlon in her skivvies that got out into the world." "The important thing is is that Dutch and I handled it quietly and efficiently." "Uh, all I did was find the pictures, bring them to Steve's attention." "I had nothing to do with" "Oh, please, you helped cover up this mess for a shot in Hanlon's panties." "Asshole." "Look, you want to spend your first month on the job overseeing a full-time lawsuit?" "Ruining several careers, Wagenbach's included?" "You go right ahead." "Asshole." "I never thought it'd come to this." "Hasn't come to anything yet." "What now?" "I'll go back and get Vic and Ronnie." "We got a way for you to get to Mexico." "What, like Gilroy?" "No, man." "The man died alone." "I'm not going that route." "You're not a miserable drunk." "It's gonna be different." "No." "It won't." "It won't." "Look, I'm not going." "No more running." "Oh, so you spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder for Antwon Mitchell?" "You in Mexico is the only thing that keeps us all safe." "Especially you." "How the hell am I going to live in Mexico?" "We got it all figured out." "How?" "San Ignacio." "What the hell is that?" "Some shithole?" "No, man." "It's a ranch." "Up in the mountains." "We got a federale that's going to get you there." "It's beautiful, man." "It's going to be peaceful." "We got money parked in an account for you." "It's all set up." "Mara and I even kicked in 5 grand for you." "I don't want that." "It's just a start." "We'll keep skimming off the street, man." "We'll keep you hooked up." "I can't." "I can't." "I can't do that." "It's all in play." "Trust me, man." "It's gonna work." "It's gonna work." "There's a way for me to take the hit solo." "No, there's not, man." "No, there's not." "Man, Kavanaugh." "Aceveda, the D.A." "There's no other deal to make." "They're gonna make you give us up." "Maybe not now." "Maybe a year from now." "But man, you got one chance to get out of here." "Take it, man." "Take that chance, right now." "Take it." "I got it figured out." "Why'd you even come back here tonight if you weren't planning on leaving?" "I came to see you guys." "Don't do this, man." "Look, where's Vic?" "I want to talk to Vic." "He'll call when he loses his tail." "We can't let Kavanaugh catch us with you, man." "Mara's pregnant again." "No shit." "Yeah, yeah." "Almost 3 months." "I wasn't supposed to say anything to anybody until next week, but, uh..." "Hey, congratulations." "Yeah." "Yeah, yeah." "That's another mouth to feed." "Mara's gonna be laid up near the end, so I'm gonna have to... have to step it up, you know?" "I hope I get to see the little guy." "Or girl." "Little girl, huh?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "A little girl." "Hey, I'm gonna be all right." "Shane." "Yeah." "Shane." "I'm gonna be all right." "It's all about family, right?" "Look, what if Vic and Ronnie can't shake the tail?" "Maybe they doubled back to the Barn." "I'll go check it out, all right?" "Move your car." "Get it out of sight." "Did you get enough to eat today?" "No, man." "I'm hungry." "I brought you some food." "Thanks." "Thanks, man." "My favourite." "Shane?" "Shane!" "I'm sorry." "Shane..." "I'm sorry, buddy..." "I'm so sorry..." "Lem?" "Lem, I'm sorry!" "But I had to, right?" "But you know I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry, man." "Oh, God!" "What are we gonna do if Lem doesn't show?" "He's gonna show." "He will." "Hey..." "I had a tail." " Took me a while to shake it." " Yeah." " Lem hadn't shown, huh?" " He's late." "But he'll be here." "Hey!" "It's your lucky day." "The cab driver can't ID and she won't testify against you." "Only thing to testify about is my love for that girl right there." "I'm gettin' you out of here soon, baby." "Yeah, get yourself out of here." "Take him out, will ya?" "Dutch," "I spoke to your ex-partner, the new captain, and she says she trusts your instincts, so... she wants me to increase the number of hours I trail you." "I just wanted to say thank you for putting in the good word." "Yeah, sure." "Okay." "Hey, hmm..." "You know why you're gonna be such a great detective someday?" "Because most people don't realize how damn smart you are." "They just see the surface." "They cannot get paste your looks to see what you're really about." "I know, right?" "But you're not nearly as smart as you need to be." "The help I'm offering doesn't come along every day." "And if I'm gonna spend my valuable time focusing it on you, well... you'd better make it worth my while." "Sure." "Definitely, of course." " What's going on?" " I don't know." " He did it." " No." "He's not coming." "Maybe he had some heat on him, he had to hide." "He's coming, or he's gonna get a message to us." "And we're gonna wait for him, gonna give him more time." "Kavanaugh could be at our houses right now man, we have got to get out of here!" "Vic." "Go home." "Check around, look for anything incriminating." "Don't take any chances." "No." "We're gonna wait." "Yeah?" "The transfert is denied." "I need my best detective on this." "Grenades." "The thing this morning." "El Salvadorans." "The leader's missing." "His name is Guardo." "Start there." "Oh my God!" "Vic, Vic..." "You can't touch anything." "You're happy?" "Are you happy now, detective Mackey?" "Stop it!" "Stop!" "Break 'em up!" "Come on." "That's enough, come on." "Break it up!" "Get off of him." "Calm down, calm down..." "We're gonna find out who did this." "And we're gonna kill him." "Subtitles:" "FRM-xxy  Lemonhead"
