"Previously on The Shield." "I have an attorney for you." "I'm Becca Doyle." "If everything hinges on her, I'd be a fool to give up that hammer." "Just like you were foolish for letting me know how important she is to making your case." "You looking for more business?" "Right now I'd like to go home and wash this place off." "Has anyone from the department come around asking questions?" "CORRINE:" "Someone has been asking questions." "He said he was the parent of an autistic child." "That him?" "CORRINE:" "Yeah." "LEM:" "Pitarrio, where's your stash?" "KAVANAUGH:" "About six months ago, we found this kilo of pure heroin in the glove compartment of your car, but you never logged it into evidence." "Lem got picked up by IAD." "They got him wearing a wire." "I'm going after Mackey." "And his team." "And I'm gonna be right here to make sure you don't blow it." "We got a CI next to him, and when he jumps dirty, we'll know." "Here." "It's okay, I'm on the clock." "I thought you were Vic's CI." "Whoever's got the money." "LEM:" "Check, one, two." "Check, one, two." "Good." "That's good." "Hey." "I need admissions from Mackey and the others on crimes that they committed, all right?" "Questions make cops suspicious." "You walk out the room every time he opens his mouth to say more than a good morning." "You think I haven't noticed this?" "LEM:" "I'm just doing my job." "Vic and I aren't attached at the hip." "KAVANAUGH:" "Well, then get attached." "Because dragging this out, trying to have it both ways, you're torturing yourself." "You made your choice." "It was the right one." "Now you gotta start living with it." "Hold on a second, okay?" "Please." "I know it's your birthday." "You mentioned that you're a fly-fisher on one of the tapes." "Thanks." "We're gonna be working together for a while, and I just thought, you know..." "I know this is tough." "But we're both gonna make our way through all of this, right?" "[DOOR CLOSES]" "VIC:" "I would have pegged you for a corner office." "First time a police officer's stepped foot in here." "I've got a case that'll interest you." "BECCA:" "My schedule's full." "And I've been finding my own cases since I was 30." "Not like this one." "Five minutes." "Everything I'm about to say falls under attorney-client privilege." "Yeah, but it doesn't obligate me to take your case." "IAD's launched an investigation into one of the guys on my Strike Team." "I don't represent cops." "Especially corrupt ones." "We're good cops." "This is about the system turning its back on four of its own." "You'd be better off going somewhere else." "You shuffle gangbangers in and out of jail all day." "This is a chance for you to take a shot at the big boys." "What do they have on him?" "Claim they found a brick of tar in his glove compartment." "It's bullshit." "What else?" "The only thing I know for sure is that they're going after my whole team." "Guy named Kavanaugh's in charge." "I'd dig into it myself, but it would raise too many red flags." "Now, there's the first real truth I've heard." "You wanna keep your knowledge of the investigation secret." "And no one would suspect I'm working for you." "So we agree that you work for me, then." "I've got an old boyfriend in the City Attorney's office." "I'll ask a couple questions, but that's it." "[WOMAN CRYING]" "Fiji, Barbados, all those tropical vacation places, you're talking typhoons." "I'm just looking out for you." "Look out for the tape." "DUTCH:" "Angle looks car to car." "Bumper's got a dent, could be fresh." "So maybe there's an incident out on the road, someone in the other car shoots, victim veers off here." "CLAUDETTE:" "Oh, Christ." "Get additional units down here." "Tell Danny I said now." "Umbilical cord." "[###]" "Checked the goddamn Amber Alert requirements." "We don't have enough to file." "CLAUDETTE:" "Somebody cut that baby out of a woman's stomach." "Well, then get me a witness, a description of the other car." "Something." "If they wanted the child, why risk pumping the mother with bullets?" "Someone wanted it to look random." "Maybe the boyfriend." "BILLING:" "What do we know about him?" "Works nights in a machine shop." "Hasn't been home since the murder." "I've got unis stationed at the house." "The vultures are gathering." "I'll get rid of them." "Wait, wait." "No, no, no." "Let's use them." "Somebody knows something." "We just need to pull the right heartstrings." "All right, good." "You keep working, I'll do it." "Wilshire's not giving us any bodies for the search team." "Not if we can't prove the baby's alive." "That's bullshit." "Call again." "No, I'll call." "Who would do something like this?" "VIC:" "What did the ex have to say?" "Absolutely nothing." "And I called a couple ADA's I went to school with." "Quiet on all fronts." "Good." "Not good." "None of them offered to look into it for me, which means they know something major's in motion." "What haven't you told me?" "David Aceveda's name come up with your friends?" "The City Councilman?" "He's assisting Kavanaugh with his investigation." "Why?" "Because he used to be captain here." "Had me pushing the legal line a couple of times when it meant getting a killer off the street, making him look good to the voters." "Overseeing the investigation means he can steer it away from himself, make me and my guys play the heavies." "Starting to get your blood running yet?" "I'm interested in the true story of this heroin they caught Lemansky with." "What does he say about it?" "Haven't been able to ask him." "IAD's got him all wired up, listening to our every word." "Well, they wouldn't make that move unless they had a witness or corroborating evidence." "I'll find out what I can." "Good." "Me too." "So the kid's about, uh, well, here, right?" "The knife goes in, goes straight down, gotta be careful about the depth." "I'd say it's intuitive." "You wouldn't need medical training at all." "So I tell the newshounds we're not looking for Einstein, just a garden-variety psychopath, possibly a woman." "DUTCH:" "Usually it's a woman who's recently lost a baby or who's been claiming to be pregnant." "I'm never gonna be able to sleep until I have this kid." "Yeah, I'm here." "You're not gonna sleep then either." "Thanks." "911 received a call at 5: 17 this morning." "From a payphone one block from the scene." "They hung up." "That could be our line to the baby." "So how we gonna find them?" "You've gotta convince them to come to us." "Need another cup?" "Two should do it." "Hey, we on that missing baby yet?" "VIC:" "No, Dutch and Claudette are handling it." "Captain wants us available to round up all the other miscellaneous sickos." "Listen, man, I'll be back in a few." "I gonna take a dump." "Smells like you already did." "All right, we got five minutes to hear what's going on with Kavanaugh." "Every detail." "LEM:" "He suspects I'm protecting you." "I've been helpful, but not too helpful." "Nothing he can check out." "Any chance he's got a witness?" "Someone who saw you take that tar?" "Shit." "Pitarrio." "Or Emolia." "I mean, she was in the house too." "No, no, I got a six-month relationship with her." "She's solid." "Pitarrio's the one with an axe to grind." "Look, if they got Pitarrio, I'm screwed." "We don't know that yet, but we're gonna find out." "No, he puts that heroin in my car, makes IAD's case, what then?" "First-time offender, you'd do, what, five years max, probably less?" "VIC:" "Shane." "Look, I'm just..." "I'm just saying." "Worst case scenario, you refuse to wear the wire, you let Kavanaugh arrest you." "We'll work behind the scenes to undermine him." "And you'll seal us off from this, right?" "The shit you've done, and I'm the one going to jail?" "Are you kidding me?" "Nobody's going away." "Hasn't been a jam yet we haven't slipped out of." "Hasn't been a witness before, or an IAD cop wiring one of us." "Hey, nobody jumped ship when Antwon had your balls in a sling." "And I was willing to put a bullet into Antwon to keep it off the rest of you." "We got you out of that before you had to go through with it." "Which is exactly what we're gonna do for Lem." "But if we can't... you're gonna look out for us, right?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Okay." "We're gonna get you clear of this." "Ronnie and I'll track down Pitarrio and we'll squeeze his balls." "I hate this." "Don't worry, we got you." "Let's get the wire back on." "What kind of person cuts a baby out of its mother's stomach?" "The kind that should have been an abortion." "There's the man." "Give me a sec." "For what?" "Aceveda's been updating me on a few things." "Be right back." "Councilman." "A moment of your time." "What is it?" "[MUSIC PLAYING OVER RADIO]" "Some asshole dumped a few couches over on Benton," "I got a La-Z-Boy over on Scott." "Bums find that out, it's a Motel 6." "You screeched up here to talk to me about trash pickups?" "DISPATCH:" "Six Paul 11, Six Paul 11." "Billings is too squirrelly to ask the city for an extra dime." "Someone's gotta do it." "LEM:" "Hey, we got a 187." "Anyway, Farmington's garbage is your area." "That's a little below my pay grade." "Call someone in Waste Removal." "Okay." "But I'd hate to see your entire district become a fire hazard." "Get what you need?" "Yeah, he was very helpful." "The car was headed south." "Down there." "Hank Preminger." "Green Explorer came around the corner, started blasting at him as he exited the diner." "SHANE:" "Nice piece." "VIC:" "Let this be a cautionary tale." "You find our heroin dealer?" "Pitarrio cleared out of his house." "He's a ghost." "Only sign of life was a couple of squatter crackheads." "Hey." "Telephone worker got a bird's eye from the pole." "He get a plate for the SUV?" "No." "But he gave unis a partial plate on a witness who had a better view." "Another white guy, jumped in his ride after the shooting, took off." "All right." "You guys work your angle." "Lem and I'll figure out who's got a problem with the Hair Club for Men." "SHANE:" "All right, man." "BILLINGS:" "That baby is still out there." "This disgusting crime occurred at approximately 5: 15 a.m. this morning." "[PAGER BEEPING]" "So we beg you, while the baby can still be saved, please call if you have any information about the traffic altercation that led to the heinous murder of Isabel Arrington." "We need you to call our tip line." "Time is of..." "I, uh, pulled the records of every single person who worked with Isabel Arrington." "So far just petty stuff." "Here's our, uh, grieving boyfriend." "Your neighbour told us Isabel was screwing somebody else." "That's bullshit." "Baby probably wasn't even yours." "Don't you say that." "You goddamn liar." "If the baby's alive, tell us." "Oh, God." "Please let him be alive." "CLAUDETTE:" "It's a boy?" "You notice that when you cut him out of Isabel's stomach?" "We did one of those scans." "We saw his stuff." "You gotta believe me." "Okay." "We'll get somebody to give you a ride home." "Stay by the phone." "I may have more questions." "You accuse me of slicing my baby out of my girl's stomach and now you want me to go home and wait on you?" "We're sorry for your loss." "RUBIN:" "I don't want your damn apologies!" "I want you to find out who did this to her, and where my baby is." "VIC:" "Victim did a stint in Lompoc eight years ago." "Been clean ever since." "No family, but coworkers at the pet store said he's got no enemies." "These matches to the partial plate on the witness?" "LEM:" "I ruled out 50 of them." "Got about a half-dozen possibles here." "Pitarrio hasn't been arrested in six months." "That's the longest he's gone since he turned 18." "He's off the grid." "If the feds picked him up and he made a deal to give up Lem, that arrest wouldn't show up on his record." "Check this out." "Leon Frankel lives in the same building as our victim." "Turns out they both got their GEDs in Lompoc." "Well, let's find out why Hank's study buddy didn't stick around to talk to the police." "SHANE:" "We looking at this guy as a coward or suspect?" "Eh, whichever jacket fits." "Hold on, hold on." "Is that Leon Frankel?" "That's me." "We were just on our way out looking for him." "What did he do?" "We were canvassing on that baby." "He threw a bottle at the car, cracked the windshield." "Then he asked if he could smell my sweet spot." "Even Shane stopped using that line." "Pretty stupid way to get yourself arrested, Leon." "LEON:" "I had a bad day." "That bad day include seeing your pal Hank Preminger shot dead?" "A friend of mine was in trouble, I'd do everything I could to help him out." "Sit down." "I was scared, I heard shots, I ran." "Hey, look, maybe if I sit here for a while, something will come to me." "You're walking down the street with your enemy-free friend, Hank." "Shots go off, he's dead." "But you know those bullets were meant for you." "Now you're not safe." "You're too damn cheap to spend 20 bucks on a fleabag motel." "You get yourself arrested because it's safer in here than it is out there." "Only we're not your goddamn bodyguards." "VIC:" "Who did it?" "I don't know." "Get out." "What?" "Get out." "Get out." "Now, wait a second." "I remember a green SUV." "Great." "Think of anything else, give us a call." "I'm releasing Leon on his own recognizance." "Wait a minute, he's supposed to post bail." "I'm overriding bail." "You're gonna get me killed out there." "That's a chance I'm willing to take." "Okay, okay." "Come on, please." "Couple days ago, I had a client fell behind on his payments." "Awesome pool player." "Now, I knew this guy, right?" "He did me a solid back in the day." "We used to hang out at Gary's Tavern, little place on Sunset." "Cut to the part where someone wants to kill you." "My boss, Gus, wanted me to take a crowbar to his right arm, and if I did that, his break would never be the same." "So I gave him an extra 24 hours." "Most loan sharks don't take too kindly to independent thinking." "Gus never would've known, but this ungrateful prick disappears with the 40 large he owes." "Now Gus thinks we split the money, and he wants me dead." "And your friend Hank takes the hit meant for you." "Yeah, I feel like shit about that." "Who shot at you?" "I'll bet you anything it was that little ass-suck works for Gus." "He's always trying to hone in on my business." "VIC:" "What's his name?" "I don't know." "I just call him ass-suck." "Excuse me while I get a Kleenex for the rest of this sob story." "LEON:" "It's a protection game." "See, I got all these young guys coming up behind me." "It's like no one wants Leon to get ahead." "Jesus, what took so long?" "I had to track Pitarrio through INS." "Miguelez Construction registered his social security number with payroll two months ago." "Scumbag got a real job?" "Working at a site over on Hillhurst." "If Pitarrio's breaking a sweat, we know he's into the feds." "Let me wrap this up." "Hey." "You're early." "So am I." "[CHUCKLES]" "How's Andy?" "He's good, actually." "He's inside." "Um, I was wondering, how old was Andy when he was diagnosed?" "Around 3." "There's an Andy at this school, but he's not your son." "What's going on?" "When were you planning on telling me you're a cop?" "Who told you that?" "Nobody." "I was married to one." "I see them every day in the ER." "You all walk the same." "Yeah, we do." "I'm a lieutenant." "IAD." "You'd make a good detective, Corrine." "I don't know what you want or why you've been lying to me, but stay away." "Miss Mackey." "I need you to know that your husband and his team are under investigation." "So what?" "I was his wife, not his partner." "I don't know what your involvement is yet, but you and I are gonna do a lot more talking." "And you mention anything to him about me or this investigation, and it's obstruction of justice." "So I find out that you told him, that he learned anything about this case, it's on you, and that's prison." "We'll talk later." "I wouldn't be here if it wasn't a baby, just so you know." "It's very generous of you to come in." "Could you tell us what you saw?" "That pregnant lady decided she had to turn all of a sudden." "Almost drove into that other car." "Other car..." "Think it was white." " goes honking, gets crazy, starts shooting." "911 put me on hold." "Five-thirty in the morning." "So I hung up." "You said you saw something on the car?" "Something that could help?" "The white car had one of those decals on the back window." "What did the decal say?" ""Jevontrey." I have a nephew named Devontrey, so I remembered the decal." "It was one of those R.I.P. ones." "VIC [ON RECORDING]:" "Kind that should have been an abortion." "There's the man." "Give me a second." "LEM:" "For what?" "VIC:" "Aceveda's been updating me on a few things." "Be right back." "Councilman, a moment of your time." "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "Come in." "You said you have an update." "Lemansky's birthday's today." "His pals, they either don't know or just don't care." "That's the update?" "My best friend forgot my birthday, I'd be pissed." "This could be a way in." "[LAUGHS]" "Anything interesting happen with you today?" "Like what?" "Like visitors?" "Mackey?" "He came by the office." "What about?" "Some bullshit sanitation complaint." "I think he just wants to shove it in my face that he's de facto running the Barn." "You didn't call him?" "Don't have regular sit-down meetings with him?" "Just trying to figure out which uniform you're wearing, councilman." "Well, it sure as hell isn't Mackey's." "Sorry for getting you down here." "Next time I have a birthday alert, I'll just call you on the phone." "[TYRES SCREECH]" "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "You're not safe here anymore." "I'm taking you." "We gotta go." "Gotta move." "Why?" "What happened?" "Got a couple of possible leaks." "Get your stuff, whatever Sebastio needs, okay?" "You said Vic wouldn't find out." "I'm not saying that he has." "Either way, he calls, you don't answer." "He comes by, you're not gonna even be here." "The volume on this thing just got turned way up." "Let's go." "[SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]" "VIC:" "Pitarrio." "Yes, I am Pitarrio." "Nice try, dickwad." "We know the guy." "Where is he?" "Give me your papers." "Let's see them." "Let's see it." "All right, you got a job off this." "What did Pitarrio get for his papers?" "He got dead." "Dead?" "What?" "You sure he's not laying low?" "Taking a cut off your hard-earned money, huh?" "No." "Three months ago we were down in El Salvador, doing a heroin deal." "The Sombra Negra, it got to him and it sliced his neck in half." "SHANE:" "Look, you gotta consider Emolia." "They might have some other kind of corroborating evidence against Lem." "She's got a messed-up kid." "She's got no job." "IAD offers her a deal, she could've jumped at it." "I've spent time with this girl." "And the boy." "She's not gonna turn on me." "Well, just call her, then." "Check in." "Emolia." "Emolia." "Sir?" "Have you seen the woman who lives here?" "[BOTH SPEAKING IN SPANISH]" "Gracias." "Thanks." "I got every decal place in town checking special orders." "Meantime, I need an extra pair of eyes." "Three years of death in LA County." "Holler if you see a Jevontrey." "[RINGING]" "Wagenbach." "Dutch, it's Corrine." "You there?" "Hey." "What's, uh...?" "I need to ask you some questions." "Oh, I can't right now." "Please." "I'm pulling up now." "It's important." "Sorry, I didn't know who else to call." "I can't stay long." "What's going on?" "Promise this stays between us, okay?" "Promise that you're gonna give me straight answers, no matter what you think of Vic." "Of course." "What is it?" "Some IAD guy's been coming to the kids' school trying to get me to say things about him." "IAD's into Vic?" "I wonder what they got on him." "I mean, probably, take your pick..." "Listen, I don't know." "But he's threatened to send me to jail if I said anything or if I don't cooperate." "I need to know if he's bullshitting me." "I mean, can he send me to jail?" "Well, a lot of times the person who goes down didn't have anything to do with the original crime." "They found out about it afterwards, lied, covered it up." "Well, what about spousal privilege?" "They can't force you to talk, but if they can prove you knew about any of Vic's actions, it makes you a co-conspirator." "What's gonna happen to your kids if something happens to you?" "You see?" "You're their best leverage against him." "But I don't know anything." "Well, then take away their leverage." "Be completely upfront and honest." "I'm sorry, I've really gotta go." "Hey, um, why would someone take prednisone?" "I don't know, a lot of reasons." "Arthritis, lupus, asthma, Crohn's disease." "It's a common anti-inflammatory." "Thanks." "I'm sorry." "You don't have to memorize every picture." "Just flip." "Flip it, man." "You want me to make a mistake?" "Hey, cut the guy some slack, all right?" "He's got a target on his back." "VIC:" "Emolia, it's me again." "Got a Salvadoran thing going on." "It's kind of time-sensitive, so call me back." "I need some air." "I'll come with." "That's the guy that works for Gus." "That's ass-suck right there." "LEM:" "Justin Lamott." "Emolia's gone." "Neighbour saw her leave with a black guy." "Kavanaugh." "You call her cell?" "Three times, including just now." "You're her paycheque." "When's the last time she didn't call you back in five minutes?" "If Kavanaugh got to her somehow, it's nothing I can't turn around." "Well, he's probably got her stashed at a safe house somewhere." "Come on." "Yeah." "Had to start with Pitarrio." "IAD flips him, shithead ends up dead." "They got nothing." "They go to Emolia, twist her against her will." "RONNIE:" "What does she know about besides the heroin?" "VIC:" "Nothing." "I've kept her clean." "Is there any chance Lem's really working with these guys?" "See, that's what Kavanaugh wants." "For us to doubt each other." "This guy's using every angle." "Prick talked to Corrine at our kids' school." "This guy's chatting up your ex?" "You think you might have mentioned that?" "I just did." "Warn Mara." "Ronnie, you tell whatever you're banging this week, don't talk to strangers." "All I need is five minutes with Emolia to coach her on what to say, let her know that we're there to help her." "Trust me." "We find her, this whole thing goes away." "Well, how are we gonna find her?" "Hey, we got an ID on our shooter." "Justin Lamott." "Vehicle matches." "Yeah, better luck than we're having." "We're gonna need to stick Leon in a safe house until we make the arrests." "All right." "I got a list of available HUD houses." "Yeah, let me see." "These are for captains and above only." "Captain, they found the baby." "Won't leave your office." "RAHDIKA:" "The bones in his chest are essentially pulverized." "CLAUDETTE:" "Pulverized?" "How?" "I'd say a fist." "Somebody punched a newborn?" "RAHDIKA:" "Stepped on him, maybe." "There's a variety of trauma." "Skull fracture, knife wound on the left leg..." "I'll know more later." "CLAUDETTE:" "Thanks for the rush." "RAHDIKA:" "On this one?" "Anything you need." "CLAUDETTE:" "A typhoon in Fiji's looking pretty good right now." "BILLINGS:" "Did we even have a chance?" "Crime scene says he died hours ago." "It's a special kind of monster." "BILLINGS:" "Yeah, and that monster's name is Tevares Glade." "Just got a call back from a decal place on Pico." "Two years ago, Tevares placed a special order there." ""R.I.P. Jevontrey."" "In honour of a dead uncle." "Pulled his record." "Tevares drives a white Monte Carlo." "And has six arrests, all for violent crimes, four of them with a Sean Deeks." "Why do two men cut a baby out of a woman's stomach just to beat him to death?" "There were more than two of them." "Look." "In the blood." "Fingerprints." "Jesus, he's covered in them." "The big ones?" "Tevares Glade or Sean Deeks." "Maybe both." "But the little ones..." "You think maybe there was a girl here too?" "Ass-suck, 12 o'clock." "Out of six rounds, this dude manages to get four in the wall, two in the wrong guy." "LEM:" "Loan shark should have hired a professional." "Some shit to be dealing with on my birthday." "It's your birthday?" "We should get wasted, man." "Yeah." "Hey, buddy." "Hey." "You, uh..." "You Justin?" "Why?" "Why?" "Gus sent us." "He's a little pissed off about the way things went down this morning." "What are you talking about?" "You shot the wrong guy." "I didn't." "I seen the prick hit the ground." "No, you saw his friend hit the ground, and you just confessed to murder." "You wanna spare yourself the needle, tell us where to find Gus." "Gus." "All right." "All right." "Justin ID'd the loan shark." "Got them both." "You tell Leon he's in the clear?" "Yeah, freak tried to hug me." "But you insisted on the blowjob." "[VIC LAUGHS]" "Must have ate something this morning." "Third time I gotta shit today." "Be sure to inform us of number four." "All right, look." "Pitarrio's a dead end." "Literally." "We think Kavanaugh's gonna try to get Emolia to give you up." "I don't think she saw me take the H. Good." "Meantime, Vic's convinced a little TLC puts her on our side." "Kavanaugh finds out we got to her, this blows up." "We even know where she is?" "Ronnie and I checked out the safe houses." "Came up empty." "But her son has occupational therapy twice a week." "Emolia won't let Sebastio miss those." "I chased down this therapist's unfaithful wife in exchange for a couple of sessions for Emolia's kid." "What do you want me to do?" "Just put on your wire, head home, kick back your feet, have a beer." "Kavanaugh's turning up the heat." "We think he might be planning to formally arrest you." "That happens, we'll be ready to bail you out." "Hey, uh, I need you two guys." "This old man here." "He's been waiting here for hours." "Apparently, some asshole's been moving around the hood in a camper trailer." "The guy sets up streamers, flags." "Whole thing's very patriotic." "He's selling care packages and bogus body armour to our troops in Iraq." "Grandpa here paid 300 bucks for a state-of-the-art vest." "His grandson called from Iraq, told him he got it in the mail..." "Let me guess." "Piece of shit." "Yep." "Go pull a car." "Glad to see you two kids are working it out." "Yeah." "Your PR instructor said you weren't in class the other night." "Something about almost having to blow a van full of skin pedlars made me wanna go home and drink a bottle of wine." "I wasn't up for baton training that night." "So you missed a class with no valid excuse." "I took three classes already." "And when exactly do you lay off?" "When I feel safe riding with you." "There's our patriot." "[PATRIOTIC MUSIC PLAYS IN VAN]" "Put him in the cage." "All right, officer." "What's a little bit like you doing being a cop?" "TINA:" "Put your hands on top of your head." "What'd he do?" "Is he a murderer?" "Hey." "Listen, I know we're short-handed and everything, but do you think I can get reassigned?" "You want a different T. O?" "I've tried with Julien, I really have..." "Look, there's murderers in here." "And rapists and shit." "I can't be in here with murderers." "I've taken three baton classes..." "I'm just a drunk." "It's Julien." "He keeps checking on me." "You gotta have a room or something." "We don't have a room." "This isn't an inn." "All right?" "This guy's in here for resisting arrest." "And this guy's in here for scamming grandpas into buying bogus body armour for their grandkids over in Iraq." "No murderers." "So don't get your panties up in a bunch." "Same goes for you." "Found your fingerprints on the baby, Tevares." "Dried in the mother's blood." "Sean and Tevares killed that lady so you could have the baby." "And then what?" "It got too much for you to handle." "He cried too much." "So you let them beat him to death." "We also have your friends." "We've got their fingerprints." "Pretty soon, one of them's gonna start to talk." "DUTCH:" "Good defence attorney just says they found the baby in a dumpster." "Fingerprints mean they tried to revive it." "Think the girl's the way to go?" "She's our best shot." "Want me to give it a run?" "I've got someone else in mind." "DANNY:" "Okay." "I feel him." "Like right here." "It's his foot." "You wanna touch it?" "You know, I didn't even ever really want a baby." "But now..." "I guess you're too young to know what I'm talking about, huh?" "All those maternal feelings and all." "Which is why I'm thinking that you did the cutting." "No." "Oh, come on." "Those idiots you're hooked up with, they wouldn't even know how to make a baby, much less cut one out of somebody." "Feel it?" "That man lost his baby son, his girlfriend..." "Bitch brought that on herself." "Is that why you wanted that baby?" "You didn't think she'd be a good enough mother?" "Shit, we didn't even know she was pregnant." "DANNY:" "When you shot her?" "She almost ran us off the road." "My man don't stand for that." "She almost killed us, so shooting her was like self-defence, right?" "We didn't see the belly until she got out the car and started trying to run." "They was just gonna drive off, but I said, "No." "We gotta save the baby."" "They was thinking they was gonna sell it." "But my sister, Myesha, she had two abortions when she was my age." "Now she wants a baby, but those doctors messed up something in there and so" "I thought maybe she could take him." "But then the baby wasn't breathing right." "So we did the stuff you see on doctor shows." "We cleared out his mouth and turned him upside down." "But that didn't work, did it?" "So I made Tevares do that CPR stuff... but the minute he pressed down... we heard everything crack." "That's enough." "We was just trying to save him." "You know what..." "Just stop talking." "They've given this Kavanaugh carte blanche to work your case." "Any resources he needs." "What's Kavanaugh trying to nail you for?" "Because this isn't about some misplaced heroin." "Aceveda and the Department need a poster boy for corruption to sell their softer, gentler force to the voters." "Why pick you as a scapegoat?" "You're a push-the-envelope kind of lawyer." "I'm a push-the-envelope kind of cop." "Which Aceveda sanctioned." "This really does go to the top." "Those are some pretty high-powered cages to rattle." "So you'll represent us?" "Just you." "VIC:" "No." "We're a team." "The four of us come as a package." "I've seen these things go down." "Everyone eventually needs to look out for themselves." "You don't understand." "We're not the typical lowlifes that you represent." "We're a family." "We're surviving this together or we go down together." "Hey." "Hey!" "Shit." "I need some officers in here, quick!" "[GRUNTING]" "QU AYLE:" "You goddamn terrorist!" "Stand back!" "JULIEN:" "What the hell are you doing?" "TINA:" "What?" "JULIEN:" "You took your gun into the cage." "Someone could have grabbed your weapon!" "Do you see all these people around you, huh?" "Look at me." "You trying to kill one of them?" "Or you trying to kill one of us?" "MAN 1:" "Hopefully one of you." "[MEN LAUGHING]" "MAN 2:" "Where you going, pretty thing, huh?" "You know why you're dangerous?" "Because this isn't real for you yet." "So you're gonna get on me too?" "If you wanna be a cop, you gotta recognise your mistakes." "Learn from them." "All I've done is try to be nice to you." "To everyone." "You got a problem with me, it's because of your own shit." "See, you're used to being the queen bee around here." "But you don't get much attention now with those stretch marks." "So you're gonna make my life miserable." "Every cop here has made mistakes." "Including you." "And I bet you anything all of you got cut more slack than me." "If you go out of this room with that sniffly nose and those red eyes, those guys will never, ever respect you." "So you pull your shit together." "Jesus, it's bitches like you that make the job hard for the rest of us." "VIC:" "Hey, man, where is she?" "She hasn't come out yet." "VIC:" "She should have been out of there 10 minutes ago." "You sure you saw her go in?" "Yeah, man, unless she went out the back." "VIC:" "Okay, here we go." "MAN:" "Get in." "SHANE:" "She getting an IAD escort?" "Hang loose." "They might be watching." "[WATCH BEEPING]" "You're not going on vacation, are you?" "Haven't decided where yet." "No, um..." "You're sick." "How sick?" "Dutch, I was here yesterday." "I'm here today." "I'll be here tomorrow." "I don't know what that means." "I'm your partner." "Look, all that stuff I said about you not being committed, checked out," "I'm..." "Dutch." "It's okay." "I gotta go take these pills." "Anybody shows up, you call me." "[KNOCKING]" "Vic." "What the hell?" "You didn't return any of my calls." "I got worried." "This dealer was giving me a hard time." "I had to get away." "Sebastio asleep?" "Those sessions take it out of him." "EMOLIA:" "What's up with you?" "VIC:" "When did IAD approach you?" "What?" "Kavanaugh." "What's he trying to get you to say?" "No, I don't know a Kavanaugh." "Why are you lying to me?" "I'm sorry, Vic." "What happened?" "Did he come to you, threaten to put you in jail if you didn't cooperate, huh?" "Because there's a way out of this, you know." "What did you tell him?" "That I saw your guy take the heroin." "That's it." "All right." "It's okay." "Soon as we get you out of town, your statement won't mean anything." "No, I can't leave." "Whatever Kavanaugh's squeezing you with, I can make it go away." "I'm gonna pack your shit." "But Sebastio." "I'm gonna take him to your mother's." "I'll make sure he gets back with you once you get settled." "Vic." "I didn't know you then." "What?" "You've been behind this all along?" "You tipped IAD about the heroin." "If had to do it over again, I'd have said no." "You've been good to me and Sebastio." "VIC:" "You didn't...?" "You didn't say anything?" "You never warned me?" "All this goddamned time?" "I told him that..." "Shut up!" "He checks in on me, Vic." "He'll be here." "What else did you tell him?" "Nothing." "I swear." "Six months." "Six months you could have warned me!" "God..." "Ah!" "One of my men, maybe all of us, are going to jail because of you." "I was scared." "I helped your son!" "I tried to get you out of this life!" "[GASPING]" "I'll leave tonight." "And go where?" "To a phone booth to call Kavanaugh?" "No." "Without you, IAD's case goes away." "You knew what I was when you started running with me." "I report on people for money, Vic." "That's what I do!" "[SCREAMS]" "[PHONE RINGING]" "I found you once." "I can do it again." "Come here." "Who'd you call today?" "What?" "On your cell phone, who did you call?" "Only my cousin a few hours ago." "You called her to get a message to her, to tell me how to find you." "Got it?" "[DOOR OPENS]" "Jesus, it's you." "Detective Mackey." "What are you doing here?" "[VIC LAUGHS]" "It's my CI." "What the hell are you doing here?" "Emolia's helping us with a Salvadoran drug ring." "IAD." "Vice." "You're a jack of all trades." "I'm sorry." "Did I miss something?" "Why is it that you're here?" "I got spooked." "Called my cousin." "She called Vic for me." "VIC:" "Next time you hide one of my Cls, put a car out front." "This isn't safe." "[###]"
