1
00:00:08,342 --> 00:00:12,544
Randy: Uh, yeah,
can I get the mixed
vegetables and white rice?
2
00:00:12,546 --> 00:00:16,415
- Woman: Okay, mixed vegetables,
white rice.
- Damn, Duke.
3
00:00:16,417 --> 00:00:18,217
You actin' like this
some fancy-ass spot.
4
00:00:18,219 --> 00:00:20,419
It ain't nothing
but a Chink joint.
5
00:00:20,421 --> 00:00:21,353
I'ma order.
6
00:00:21,355 --> 00:00:23,355
Then do it.
I said I got it.
7
00:00:23,357 --> 00:00:26,358
( woman speaking Chinese )
8
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,594
Look at this nigga
flashin' his shit
9
00:00:28,596 --> 00:00:30,195
like some
big-time gangster.
10
00:00:30,197 --> 00:00:31,563
Yeah, Nay
a righteous hustler.
11
00:00:31,565 --> 00:00:33,265
Man, I'm just
treating y'all,
that's all.
12
00:00:33,267 --> 00:00:36,168
You know I like
to keep it real
with the little people.
13
00:00:36,170 --> 00:00:37,703
Man, fuck you, man.
14
00:00:37,705 --> 00:00:41,407
I was talking about you.
I was talking about you.
What's up?
15
00:00:42,810 --> 00:00:44,576
- ( laughing )
- Woman: May I help you?
16
00:00:44,578 --> 00:00:47,513
Can I order the yaka mein
with turkey grease?
17
00:00:47,515 --> 00:00:49,681
- ( laughing )
- Woman: Yaka mein noodles--
18
00:00:49,683 --> 00:00:51,817
- This nigga
ordered turkey grease.
- Dukie: What's wrong, yo?
19
00:00:51,819 --> 00:00:53,385
I mean, my mom,
she get it all the time.
20
00:00:53,387 --> 00:00:57,456
Yo, you is really one
of them at-risk children.
You know that, Dukie?
21
00:00:57,458 --> 00:00:59,058
Yo, man,
leave him alone, son.
22
00:00:59,060 --> 00:01:00,259
Yeah, I got it.
How much?
23
00:01:00,261 --> 00:01:01,627
- Woman: $4.00
- Why is it so funny?
24
00:01:01,629 --> 00:01:03,062
They just goofin'
on you, man.
25
00:01:03,064 --> 00:01:04,396
What's wrong with
me ordering yaka mein?
26
00:01:04,398 --> 00:01:05,831
Nothing wrong with you
ordering yaka mein.
27
00:01:05,833 --> 00:01:07,533
It's just the turkey grease
that makes the drunks,
28
00:01:07,535 --> 00:01:09,835
you know, throw up all that
liquor they was drinking,
29
00:01:09,837 --> 00:01:11,837
go back to swilling
that shit.
30
00:01:11,839 --> 00:01:14,440
( man speaking Chinese )
31
00:01:14,442 --> 00:01:17,376
- Man, this shit is good.
- Why don't you buy
your own food?
32
00:01:17,378 --> 00:01:20,679
This all you getting.
Don't ask for no more
than that.
33
00:01:20,681 --> 00:01:22,448
That shit tastes
good as hell.
34
00:01:22,450 --> 00:01:25,584
Yo, y'all heard about
what happened to Little Kevin?
35
00:01:25,586 --> 00:01:27,686
- What?
- He be dead.
36
00:01:27,688 --> 00:01:30,222
- He up in them vacants.
- Why?
37
00:01:30,224 --> 00:01:32,791
Fucked up somewhere,
I suppose.
38
00:01:34,261 --> 00:01:34,726
Uh-oh.
39
00:01:34,728 --> 00:01:38,230
What the fuck
you little hoppers
doing on my avenue?
40
00:01:38,232 --> 00:01:39,431
- Eating.
- Shit you are.
41
00:01:39,433 --> 00:01:41,233
You're probably setting up
to snatch a purse.
42
00:01:41,235 --> 00:01:43,268
Get the fuck back
on the reservation
43
00:01:43,270 --> 00:01:45,104
where your
black asses belong.
44
00:01:45,106 --> 00:01:46,605
How you feeling,
little man?
45
00:01:46,607 --> 00:01:50,209
Need a hand
with that food?
46
00:01:50,611 --> 00:01:53,145
I said get.
47
00:01:59,687 --> 00:02:01,420
- Yo, y'all hear that shit?
- "My avenue."
48
00:02:01,422 --> 00:02:04,389
- It's just as much
ours as it is his.
- Walker be evil, yo.
49
00:02:04,391 --> 00:02:07,593
- He be thieving
and smackin' folk down.
- Yo, we should get him back
50
00:02:07,595 --> 00:02:09,828
on the payback tip
for all the dirt he do.
51
00:02:09,830 --> 00:02:12,364
You want to throw down
with police?
52
00:02:12,366 --> 00:02:14,166
I don't mean
go at him direct,
53
00:02:14,168 --> 00:02:15,267
but, you know,
hurt him.
54
00:02:15,269 --> 00:02:18,237
Like, slash his tires
or some shit.
55
00:02:18,239 --> 00:02:21,440
We could stick
condoms on his car.
56
00:02:21,442 --> 00:02:24,176
- That'd send a message.
- Yeah, but what kind?
57
00:02:24,178 --> 00:02:26,311
We should slap
bumper stickers
on his windshield.
58
00:02:26,313 --> 00:02:28,747
I mean, they is hard
to get off.
59
00:02:28,749 --> 00:02:29,715
Hold on.
Wait, wait, wait.
60
00:02:29,717 --> 00:02:32,718
Do Officer Walker
go to that club on Stockton,
61
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,820
the one where
the Western police party?
62
00:02:34,822 --> 00:02:37,689
I seen his car there.
63
00:02:37,691 --> 00:02:40,392
I got this one.
64
00:02:42,363 --> 00:02:44,796
( theme music playing )
65
00:04:12,319 --> 00:04:14,820
( bell ringing )
66
00:04:21,328 --> 00:04:22,761
Carcetti:
And as much as I empathize,
67
00:04:22,763 --> 00:04:26,498
I can only tell you
that there is a process
for complaints like this one.
68
00:04:26,500 --> 00:04:28,400
Don't sell us
on process, Mr. Mayor.
69
00:04:28,402 --> 00:04:30,969
We've had years of this kind
of treatment from city police.
70
00:04:30,971 --> 00:04:33,839
You need to understand
we view this as an affront
to the cloth.
71
00:04:33,841 --> 00:04:38,543
We've asked for
a civilian review board
for decades now.
72
00:04:38,545 --> 00:04:40,445
Absent that,
how can we trust
73
00:04:40,447 --> 00:04:42,481
any investigation
of any complaint?
74
00:04:42,483 --> 00:04:45,550
Forgive me, gentlemen,
but last I checked,
75
00:04:45,552 --> 00:04:47,586
the department had
a black commissioner
76
00:04:47,588 --> 00:04:49,454
and a black
I.I.D. director.
77
00:04:49,456 --> 00:04:50,989
The problem
is systemic.
78
00:04:50,991 --> 00:04:52,457
And as to
Commissioner Burrell,
79
00:04:52,459 --> 00:04:55,560
we understand
that his authority
is now limited.
80
00:04:55,562 --> 00:04:58,463
Mr. Mayor, when it comes
to matters like this one,
81
00:04:58,465 --> 00:05:00,866
do you expect us to have
faith in Deputy Rawls?
82
00:05:00,868 --> 00:05:03,969
I expect you'll be
good enough not to prejudge
the department's response
83
00:05:03,971 --> 00:05:07,706
before the investigation
even begins, as I won't
prejudge it.
84
00:05:07,708 --> 00:05:10,776
I can only tell you that
I take this incident
very seriously
85
00:05:10,778 --> 00:05:14,012
and that I will pursue
all of the facts.
86
00:05:16,717 --> 00:05:19,618
Well, Mr. Mayor,
you said you would
have an open door,
87
00:05:19,620 --> 00:05:22,688
and so far, I credit you
for keeping that promise.
88
00:05:22,690 --> 00:05:25,891
And my door will always
be open to you.
89
00:05:25,893 --> 00:05:27,759
Thank you.
90
00:05:31,999 --> 00:05:35,334
If they couldn't get
civilian review out of
a Royce administration,
91
00:05:35,336 --> 00:05:36,802
how can they think
they're gonna get it from me?
92
00:05:36,804 --> 00:05:40,806
They're just testing you here,
trying to see how vulnerable
you feel on the racial stuff.
93
00:05:40,808 --> 00:05:42,441
On Burrell, too,
for what it's worth.
94
00:05:42,443 --> 00:05:44,910
Well, civilian review
is a nonstarter.
95
00:05:44,912 --> 00:05:45,844
You go now there now,
96
00:05:45,846 --> 00:05:48,547
you'll be bending over for
four years for the ministers.
97
00:05:48,549 --> 00:05:50,849
So what?
I throw them a bone
and fire some idiot cop?
98
00:05:50,851 --> 00:05:53,352
By pressing that,
the average beat cop's
gonna hate my guts,
99
00:05:53,354 --> 00:05:56,388
and I ain't gonna change
anything around without
rank-and-file support.
100
00:05:56,390 --> 00:05:58,023
You don't fire him,
you're going to piss off
101
00:05:58,025 --> 00:05:59,991
most of the black
political infrastructure.
102
00:05:59,993 --> 00:06:04,062
Mm, yummy.
My first bowl of shit.
103
00:06:04,064 --> 00:06:06,965
( Norman chuckles )
104
00:06:11,038 --> 00:06:13,572
Circle that
right there.
105
00:06:13,574 --> 00:06:16,641
And then you press
that right there.
106
00:06:21,148 --> 00:06:22,981
It's work time.
107
00:06:22,983 --> 00:06:25,851
You guys got worksheets
to write down that data?
108
00:06:25,853 --> 00:06:28,053
- Yeah.
- All right.
109
00:06:28,889 --> 00:06:31,623
- Charlene, what don't
you understand?
- None of it.
110
00:06:31,625 --> 00:06:35,494
Okay, let's see
if we can find a way
you can get it, okay?
111
00:06:35,496 --> 00:06:36,862
What's the diameter?
112
00:06:36,864 --> 00:06:38,163
- Huh?
- It's seven.
113
00:06:38,165 --> 00:06:40,699
Good. Okay,
what's half of that?
114
00:06:40,701 --> 00:06:41,867
You can't take half of it.
115
00:06:41,869 --> 00:06:45,804
Okay, let's say you have
$10 and you give half
of it to Jasmine.
116
00:06:45,806 --> 00:06:47,739
Why I do that?
117
00:06:47,741 --> 00:06:50,175
Well, just pretend, okay?
118
00:06:50,177 --> 00:06:52,177
You give her half,
how much does she have?
119
00:06:52,179 --> 00:06:53,512
- Duh, five.
- Good.
120
00:06:53,514 --> 00:06:56,948
Now let's say this time
you have $7 and you
give her half.
121
00:06:56,950 --> 00:07:00,419
- How much does she have?
- $3.50.
122
00:07:00,421 --> 00:07:03,455
Good, so...
123
00:07:03,957 --> 00:07:07,025
Yo, Mr. Prez,
check this out.
124
00:07:07,027 --> 00:07:10,629
- ( groaning )
- ( laughing )
125
00:07:15,569 --> 00:07:18,537
Why we no pick him up
at his casa, follow him
from there?
126
00:07:18,539 --> 00:07:20,005
Why, so we can
lose him here again?
127
00:07:20,007 --> 00:07:23,141
Papa, nothin' say
he got to come back
through this way, you know?
128
00:07:23,143 --> 00:07:24,509
What if he take
another road?
129
00:07:24,511 --> 00:07:25,744
- ( speaking Spanish )
- All right.
130
00:07:25,746 --> 00:07:27,813
We'll pick him up
from his casa tomorrow.
131
00:07:27,815 --> 00:07:30,081
( speaking Spanish )
132
00:07:30,083 --> 00:07:33,018
Partner... don't pout.
133
00:07:33,020 --> 00:07:36,555
Omar, I'm tired
of this, bro.
134
00:07:36,557 --> 00:07:40,158
Lo siento, baby.
Lo siento.
135
00:07:43,464 --> 00:07:45,630
Hey, now.
( snaps fingers )
136
00:07:45,632 --> 00:07:48,166
There she blow.
137
00:08:00,814 --> 00:08:03,982
All right, then,
so we agree staring down
138
00:08:03,984 --> 00:08:06,751
the stick-up boy
on a corner takes courage
139
00:08:06,753 --> 00:08:09,154
and we agree it takes
courage to go overnight
140
00:08:09,156 --> 00:08:10,188
to Cheltenham or Hickey.
141
00:08:10,190 --> 00:08:13,959
This is a good list,
but are there any examples
we can make
142
00:08:13,961 --> 00:08:17,128
outside of being
on a corner?
143
00:08:17,898 --> 00:08:20,799
I need a volunteer.
144
00:08:20,801 --> 00:08:21,900
Girl:
Not me.
145
00:08:21,902 --> 00:08:24,169
- What about you,
Albert?
- No.
146
00:08:24,171 --> 00:08:27,606
You volunteer and
you don't know what for,
you ain't got brains.
147
00:08:27,608 --> 00:08:31,776
All right, then.
I need a volunteer
to stand on this box
148
00:08:31,778 --> 00:08:33,278
blindfolded, fall off,
149
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,814
and let us catch him
before he hits the ground.
150
00:08:35,816 --> 00:08:38,183
- ( laughter )
- Girl: Shit.
151
00:08:38,185 --> 00:08:40,685
- Albert?
- That's fucking stupid.
152
00:08:40,687 --> 00:08:42,988
- ( laughter )
- What about you, Namond?
153
00:08:42,990 --> 00:08:44,956
Wait, wait, wait,
let me get this right.
154
00:08:44,958 --> 00:08:46,992
So you want me
to stand up on that box,
155
00:08:46,994 --> 00:08:48,960
put a blindfold on,
fall,
156
00:08:48,962 --> 00:08:53,298
and expect these
weak-ass clowns
to catch me?
157
00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:54,733
Hell, no.
158
00:08:54,735 --> 00:08:56,234
Boy:
Who he talkin' to?
159
00:08:56,236 --> 00:08:58,870
- Boy #2: For real.
- ( chatter )
160
00:08:58,872 --> 00:09:02,073
Hey, yo, y'all drop me
and we gonna have
more than words.
161
00:09:02,075 --> 00:09:05,243
- ( chattering )
- A'ight.
162
00:09:05,245 --> 00:09:07,746
All right, everybody,
gather 'round.
163
00:09:11,552 --> 00:09:14,019
- Oh, shit.
- ( laughter )
164
00:09:14,021 --> 00:09:17,689
Ms. Duquette:
You ready? On three.
165
00:09:17,691 --> 00:09:20,659
One, two, three.
166
00:09:20,661 --> 00:09:22,627
Boy:
Let him drop.
167
00:09:22,629 --> 00:09:25,997
Whoa! Shit!
Oh, that shit was right.
168
00:09:25,999 --> 00:09:28,233
All right,
who wants to go next?
169
00:09:28,235 --> 00:09:29,100
Albert?
170
00:09:29,102 --> 00:09:30,902
I ain't doing
no stupid shit like that.
171
00:09:30,904 --> 00:09:34,306
- Fuck you and fuck all
y'all bitches.
- ( clatters )
172
00:09:34,308 --> 00:09:38,643
( chatter and laughter )
173
00:09:39,580 --> 00:09:41,846
Boy:
We don't like
your little ass anyway.
174
00:09:41,848 --> 00:09:44,082
Settle down,
settle down.
175
00:09:45,586 --> 00:09:50,589
Yo, today's specials are
those little Hershey bars,
three for a dime.
176
00:09:50,591 --> 00:09:52,290
And I got all your
other favorites, too.
177
00:09:52,292 --> 00:09:54,859
Yo, Deante,
I got your licorice--
178
00:09:54,861 --> 00:09:56,361
red and black both.
179
00:09:56,363 --> 00:09:58,797
Snitchin' Randy.
180
00:10:07,808 --> 00:10:11,076
( music playing on radio )
181
00:10:15,148 --> 00:10:17,649
Well, I'll be blessed, yo.
Look it.
182
00:10:17,651 --> 00:10:19,851
Renaldo:
This is good?
We put him here?
183
00:10:19,853 --> 00:10:22,220
That tall man
with Prop Joe?
184
00:10:22,222 --> 00:10:24,222
Yo, for real,
on this caper,
185
00:10:24,224 --> 00:10:26,257
the more we learn,
the less we know.
186
00:10:26,259 --> 00:10:29,628
- We can go?
- No, we stay.
187
00:10:29,630 --> 00:10:30,662
Papa, I need to go.
188
00:10:30,664 --> 00:10:32,397
I say we stay, Renaldo.
What's wrong, yo?
189
00:10:32,399 --> 00:10:35,133
No, no, I mean go.
( speaking Spanish )
190
00:10:35,135 --> 00:10:36,735
We been in the car
too many hours.
191
00:10:36,737 --> 00:10:40,171
Whether you squat
in an alley or sittin'
on a porcelain throne,
192
00:10:40,173 --> 00:10:43,775
don't really change
the moment, now do it?
193
00:10:46,146 --> 00:10:48,046
Rough day?
194
00:10:49,683 --> 00:10:51,383
Doesn't help
to hold it in.
195
00:10:51,385 --> 00:10:53,718
What the fuck you know?
196
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:59,024
If you tell me,
maybe we can help.
197
00:11:01,862 --> 00:11:03,395
Ain't nothing.
198
00:11:03,397 --> 00:11:05,130
Look, come on, Albert.
199
00:11:05,132 --> 00:11:07,432
You've been doing
real good in this class.
200
00:11:07,434 --> 00:11:10,235
Real good till today.
201
00:11:13,407 --> 00:11:16,808
- Just give it a try.
- ( sniffles )
202
00:11:17,377 --> 00:11:20,712
( phone ringing )
203
00:11:22,315 --> 00:11:24,182
I went home yesterday,
204
00:11:24,184 --> 00:11:27,252
my mom's on the couch.
205
00:11:27,254 --> 00:11:28,853
She dead.
206
00:11:28,855 --> 00:11:32,090
Memaw said best
I come to school,
207
00:11:32,092 --> 00:11:34,793
but...
208
00:11:34,795 --> 00:11:36,761
Oh.
209
00:11:37,798 --> 00:11:40,131
Yeah, you wanted
to be with your mom.
210
00:11:42,869 --> 00:11:45,470
Of course you did.
211
00:11:45,472 --> 00:11:47,305
Some of you know me
from narcotics work,
212
00:11:47,307 --> 00:11:49,908
some from earlier
if you worked the
Western District,
213
00:11:49,910 --> 00:11:52,077
and some of you
I'm meeting for
the first time,
214
00:11:52,079 --> 00:11:54,379
but the only point
I'd really like to
make here today
215
00:11:54,381 --> 00:11:56,414
is that this is
a transitional time
216
00:11:56,416 --> 00:11:58,783
for this department
and for the city
as a whole.
217
00:11:58,785 --> 00:12:00,985
We have a new mayor
and a new state's attorney
218
00:12:00,987 --> 00:12:04,456
and they both feel
like they have a mandate
for change.
219
00:12:04,458 --> 00:12:05,423
( chattering )
220
00:12:05,425 --> 00:12:09,728
Daniels:
The point is that given
the mayor's position on crime
221
00:12:09,730 --> 00:12:11,029
and given the outcome
of the election,
222
00:12:11,031 --> 00:12:13,164
- we can expect
certain enhancements.
- ( chatter )
223
00:12:13,166 --> 00:12:17,068
Certain improvements
may be forthcoming
in the near future.
224
00:12:17,070 --> 00:12:18,937
So we're looking
for feedback here,
225
00:12:18,939 --> 00:12:20,105
some input
as to what we need
226
00:12:20,107 --> 00:12:22,173
more of or less of
to better work murders.
227
00:12:22,175 --> 00:12:25,376
- Better witness protection.
- More proactive investigation.
228
00:12:25,378 --> 00:12:28,179
- Pay raise.
- ( cheering )
229
00:12:28,181 --> 00:12:31,282
- Better lab work.
More techs on duty.
- More overtime.
230
00:12:31,284 --> 00:12:33,151
- More scotch!
- ( laughing )
231
00:12:33,153 --> 00:12:35,186
More time for case prep,
seriously.
232
00:12:35,188 --> 00:12:37,822
- More women.
Loose women.
- ( laughing )
233
00:12:37,824 --> 00:12:39,224
Pay hike,
double-digits.
234
00:12:39,226 --> 00:12:42,360
Mo' better,
mo' better,
mo' better.
235
00:12:42,362 --> 00:12:45,463
That's what we need.
236
00:12:46,433 --> 00:12:47,999
Sounds like a new day,
don't it?
237
00:12:48,001 --> 00:12:50,301
Department's finally gonna
get what it needs.
238
00:12:50,303 --> 00:12:55,006
- State's attorney's
office, too.
- A new day.
239
00:12:55,008 --> 00:12:56,241
They make
a nice couple, anyway.
240
00:12:56,243 --> 00:13:00,211
Looking forward to working
with you, Colonel.
241
00:13:00,213 --> 00:13:02,914
Norman:
That's signed by
a now-inaugurated mayor
242
00:13:02,916 --> 00:13:06,050
ordering his police commanders
to avoid mass arrests.
243
00:13:06,052 --> 00:13:10,155
Community-based policing
and high-end enforcements
are to be emphasized.
244
00:13:10,157 --> 00:13:14,325
- I take it Burrell
got a copy.
- In person.
245
00:13:14,327 --> 00:13:15,460
I don't see it.
246
00:13:15,462 --> 00:13:17,395
Why not just fire
the fucking asshole?
247
00:13:17,397 --> 00:13:18,830
The mayor is weighing
his options.
248
00:13:18,832 --> 00:13:20,398
- The fuck does that mean?
- To fire Burrell,
249
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,936
we're going to need
more political capital
than we have right now.
250
00:13:24,938 --> 00:13:26,104
Speaking of which,
251
00:13:26,106 --> 00:13:28,840
it brings us to another
little piece of business.
252
00:13:28,842 --> 00:13:32,043
- The thing with the minister.
- It's a delicate situation.
253
00:13:32,045 --> 00:13:34,112
The ministers are pressing
for a civilian review,
254
00:13:34,114 --> 00:13:36,181
which I know the rank-and-file
don't want to hear,
255
00:13:36,183 --> 00:13:38,416
but it speaks directly
to the situation with Burrell.
256
00:13:38,418 --> 00:13:42,253
- If we expend capital
defending this incident--
- I get it.
257
00:13:42,255 --> 00:13:45,857
- You want the cop fired.
- No, we're not saying
that at all.
258
00:13:45,859 --> 00:13:47,392
The mayor doesn't
want to interfere with
259
00:13:47,394 --> 00:13:51,129
the everyday workings
of the department.
260
00:13:51,131 --> 00:13:52,330
But it's a balancing act.
261
00:13:52,332 --> 00:13:56,167
Our response has to be
smart and evenhanded,
262
00:13:56,169 --> 00:13:57,302
in a racial sense
especially.
263
00:13:57,304 --> 00:14:01,873
- If I'm hearing you,
it's about perception.
- Exactly.
264
00:14:02,275 --> 00:14:03,975
I.I.D. has
a black commander,
265
00:14:03,977 --> 00:14:05,543
but he's beholden
to Burrell.
266
00:14:05,545 --> 00:14:08,379
He'll stir shit
with this if he can.
267
00:14:10,350 --> 00:14:14,018
The sergeant in question
is assigned to C.I.D.
268
00:14:14,020 --> 00:14:15,220
His new commander
is Daniels.
269
00:14:15,222 --> 00:14:19,457
He's smart, he's black,
and politically neutral.
270
00:14:19,459 --> 00:14:23,027
- That work for you?
- Works for us.
271
00:14:23,563 --> 00:14:26,564
- ( humming )
- ( dog barking )
272
00:14:28,268 --> 00:14:31,569
- ( knocks on door )
- ( glass clatters )
273
00:14:32,205 --> 00:14:36,908
Who that?
I said, who's that?
274
00:14:44,050 --> 00:14:48,586
- You home or you
just visiting?
- Home if I can.
275
00:14:49,522 --> 00:14:53,925
All right.
Go by the fire
if you want.
276
00:14:56,096 --> 00:14:59,597
I got a couple of dogs left.
You hungry?
277
00:15:05,605 --> 00:15:07,372
Shit weren't working out
with Jo-Jo and them.
278
00:15:07,374 --> 00:15:09,540
Said I owed him some cheddar
or some shit some other boy did.
279
00:15:09,542 --> 00:15:14,178
- I don't want to make
no noise on that, though.
- They pressin' you.
280
00:15:15,215 --> 00:15:18,616
All right, you know...
281
00:15:18,618 --> 00:15:20,518
you get with me and we pay
'em right back, okay?
282
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,454
All that shit
you been sayin' to me
goin' through my head.
283
00:15:23,456 --> 00:15:25,056
Forget about that.
Forget about all that.
284
00:15:25,058 --> 00:15:26,324
If I wouldn't have
pushed you off,
285
00:15:26,326 --> 00:15:27,926
you would have never
been up on that corner.
286
00:15:27,928 --> 00:15:29,560
But everything I do,
I be fucking up.
287
00:15:29,562 --> 00:15:32,497
Whole time it feel like
it wasn't me on that corner.
288
00:15:32,499 --> 00:15:35,300
I just wanted to get away.
289
00:15:37,037 --> 00:15:39,704
Well, you're here now,
ain't you? All right?
290
00:15:39,706 --> 00:15:44,409
This is you, right here,
right now, okay?
291
00:15:44,411 --> 00:15:45,677
( hissing )
292
00:15:45,679 --> 00:15:47,211
You're burning a hole
in that shirt, man.
293
00:15:47,213 --> 00:15:50,548
Fuck-- fucked me all up
when I saw you walking
through the door, Sherrod.
294
00:15:50,550 --> 00:15:53,484
Oh, shit.
What you think, huh?
295
00:15:53,486 --> 00:15:56,254
You know, I get
half price for this.
( laughs )
296
00:15:56,256 --> 00:15:57,622
All right,
take your hat off, man.
297
00:15:57,624 --> 00:16:00,658
Don't burn them
pimp steaks, huh?
298
00:16:10,370 --> 00:16:13,071
Took long enough.
299
00:16:16,376 --> 00:16:19,344
Yo, Dukie,
you sure about this?
300
00:16:19,346 --> 00:16:22,380
I mean,
I'm with y'all.
301
00:16:22,382 --> 00:16:23,581
Y'all my boys
like that.
302
00:16:23,583 --> 00:16:26,017
Y'all there for me,
I'm there for y'all.
303
00:16:26,019 --> 00:16:29,253
I'm really starting to think
this is some fucked-up shit.
304
00:16:29,255 --> 00:16:32,390
I mean, Officer Walker's
a shady motherfucker,
305
00:16:32,392 --> 00:16:34,993
but he's police.
306
00:16:34,995 --> 00:16:37,395
We do it Michael's way,
we send a message.
307
00:16:37,397 --> 00:16:40,765
You ain't got to do
what I got to do.
308
00:16:40,767 --> 00:16:44,168
We drew straws, Nay.
309
00:17:06,026 --> 00:17:07,658
Let's go.
310
00:17:15,602 --> 00:17:19,504
- This is everything?
- Sergeant Hauk's statement,
the ministers',
311
00:17:19,506 --> 00:17:22,040
statements of the other
officers, it's all there.
312
00:17:22,042 --> 00:17:23,207
No independent
witnesses, huh?
313
00:17:23,209 --> 00:17:26,444
It's a lot of smoke,
but I'm not feeling much
in the way of fire.
314
00:17:26,446 --> 00:17:28,046
It was a strong case
for discourtesy.
315
00:17:28,048 --> 00:17:31,215
True, but no indication of
racial or religious overtones.
316
00:17:31,217 --> 00:17:35,153
And the brutality
allegation is a stretch.
317
00:17:35,155 --> 00:17:37,321
I've gone over G.O., C-7.
318
00:17:37,323 --> 00:17:39,490
I'm up to speed
with the matrix.
319
00:17:39,492 --> 00:17:41,826
But since the buck stops
with me on this one,
320
00:17:41,828 --> 00:17:43,461
walk me through
my options.
321
00:17:43,463 --> 00:17:47,565
Minor offenses, you can
issue a summary judgment--
322
00:17:48,101 --> 00:17:49,767
a period of extra duty
without pay,
323
00:17:49,769 --> 00:17:52,370
guidance and counseling,
the like,
324
00:17:52,372 --> 00:17:54,138
or if Sergeant Hauk
fights your decision
325
00:17:54,140 --> 00:17:55,506
or if there's a more
substantive charge,
326
00:17:55,508 --> 00:17:59,710
- it goes downstairs
to a trial board.
- And possible termination?
327
00:18:04,584 --> 00:18:06,551
Let me ask you...
328
00:18:06,553 --> 00:18:09,153
if the minister's connected,
329
00:18:09,155 --> 00:18:11,622
and if all eyes
are on this one,
330
00:18:11,624 --> 00:18:13,524
what does command
want to see happen?
331
00:18:13,526 --> 00:18:14,759
What does City Hall
want to see happen?
332
00:18:14,761 --> 00:18:18,229
City Hall just wants someone
to do the right thing,
333
00:18:18,231 --> 00:18:20,164
whatever that is.
334
00:18:20,166 --> 00:18:21,199
You're sitting here, Deputy,
335
00:18:21,201 --> 00:18:22,867
telling me to just
do the right thing?
336
00:18:22,869 --> 00:18:26,204
Doesn't happen often,
I know.
337
00:18:31,478 --> 00:18:35,379
( muffled music blaring )
338
00:18:49,562 --> 00:18:52,864
Hey! What are you doing?
Come here!
339
00:18:52,866 --> 00:18:54,665
( dog barking )
340
00:18:54,667 --> 00:18:58,836
You motherfucker,
when I get your little ass...
341
00:19:00,206 --> 00:19:01,305
Hey, hey, hey!
342
00:19:01,307 --> 00:19:03,207
Come on, show me
yours hands, bitch.
343
00:19:03,209 --> 00:19:04,909
Back the fuck up,
little hopper.
I'm police.
344
00:19:04,911 --> 00:19:08,379
Yeah, I know.
You the police who like
to fuck with a nigger.
345
00:19:08,381 --> 00:19:12,183
Turn around.
Hey, hey, yo!
346
00:19:12,185 --> 00:19:14,452
You ain't gonna
hear the next one.
347
00:19:14,454 --> 00:19:15,453
Get on your knees,
348
00:19:15,455 --> 00:19:19,290
cross them legs,
knit them hands,
come on.
349
00:19:21,594 --> 00:19:23,494
Ooh, hold on.
350
00:19:24,497 --> 00:19:25,897
Yo, what the fuck
you doing?
351
00:19:25,899 --> 00:19:28,432
What the fuck
is wrong with you, man?
352
00:19:28,434 --> 00:19:31,869
Hey, give up
that ring, man.
353
00:19:31,871 --> 00:19:35,373
Come on.
354
00:19:35,375 --> 00:19:37,341
Yeah.
355
00:19:38,811 --> 00:19:41,179
( chuckles )
356
00:19:42,248 --> 00:19:44,282
( yells )
357
00:19:44,717 --> 00:19:47,351
( laughs )
Payback.
358
00:19:47,353 --> 00:19:51,489
That's right,
run, motherfuckers!
359
00:19:51,491 --> 00:19:53,524
Shit!
360
00:19:56,763 --> 00:19:59,363
( truck beeping )
361
00:20:00,700 --> 00:20:04,702
- ( chatter over P.A. )
- ( bell rings )
362
00:20:05,338 --> 00:20:10,508
I'm telling you, right there.
This horse is a winner.
Look at it, okay?
363
00:20:10,510 --> 00:20:11,609
How you doing?
364
00:20:11,611 --> 00:20:12,777
- Hey.
- Excuse me.
365
00:20:12,779 --> 00:20:16,514
- Mr. Mayor.
- On my way downtown today,
I saw an abandoned car.
366
00:20:16,516 --> 00:20:21,652
- Tow it right away.
- Where is-- Mr. Mayor,
the location.
367
00:20:21,654 --> 00:20:23,921
Oh, fucking Christ.
Call transpo!
368
00:20:23,923 --> 00:20:25,590
Get the fucking
trucks moving!
369
00:20:25,592 --> 00:20:28,693
( music playing )
370
00:20:30,897 --> 00:20:33,531
- Uh, Mr. Mayor.
- I got a constituent call.
371
00:20:33,533 --> 00:20:36,367
She said the playground
near her house was a hazard.
372
00:20:36,369 --> 00:20:37,902
- Rusted metal.
- We'll get right on it.
373
00:20:37,904 --> 00:20:40,871
The location?
Sir, I need a location.
374
00:20:40,873 --> 00:20:45,409
Mr. Mayor,
I understand your concern,
but you've got to understand,
375
00:20:45,411 --> 00:20:47,878
we have more
than 9,100 hydrants.
376
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,514
And one of them's leaking.
377
00:20:50,516 --> 00:20:54,919
Sensitivity counseling,
two weeks extra duty,
378
00:20:54,921 --> 00:20:56,654
no punishment past that.
379
00:20:56,656 --> 00:20:58,422
They sliced it
into the rough.
380
00:20:58,424 --> 00:21:01,592
Does Daniels know the bind
this puts his boy Carcetti in?
381
00:21:01,594 --> 00:21:05,930
Well, Wilson briefed Rawls,
Rawls briefed Daniels.
382
00:21:06,499 --> 00:21:08,466
It's Carcetti
doing Pontius Pilate,
383
00:21:08,468 --> 00:21:10,901
putting it on Daniels,
who was a safe choice
384
00:21:10,903 --> 00:21:12,536
as far as
the rank-and-file goes.
385
00:21:12,538 --> 00:21:16,874
But that won't be enough
for the ministers,
not by a long shot.
386
00:21:22,315 --> 00:21:25,783
Am I the only one that knows
how to play this game?
387
00:21:29,289 --> 00:21:32,790
Man: Let's go,
get that hydrant sealed.
388
00:21:42,368 --> 00:21:45,803
( radio chatter )
389
00:21:48,975 --> 00:21:52,410
Man:
Hey, man, give me
a hand with this.
390
00:21:56,516 --> 00:21:59,450
( power tools rattling )
391
00:22:06,326 --> 00:22:11,095
Three of them with shotguns
got me coming outside the club.
392
00:22:11,097 --> 00:22:12,029
I made 'em for Bloods.
393
00:22:12,031 --> 00:22:15,066
The paint's supposed to be
some kind of declaration of war.
394
00:22:15,068 --> 00:22:19,837
- Sounds like
we get to stomp some ass.
- The Western District way.
395
00:22:22,809 --> 00:22:26,377
Yellow paint
a declaration of war?
396
00:22:26,379 --> 00:22:28,346
That's a new one.
397
00:22:33,786 --> 00:22:36,687
So what I heard was
that this wild-ass boys--
398
00:22:36,689 --> 00:22:39,924
I ain't saying no names--
but they past crazy.
399
00:22:39,926 --> 00:22:40,758
They robbed him.
400
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,362
They threw paint
on his ass, yellow paint.
401
00:22:44,364 --> 00:22:46,464
Shit, I ain't lying.
402
00:22:46,466 --> 00:22:47,431
I don't know about that,
403
00:22:47,433 --> 00:22:49,633
but you showed me something
getting on that box like that.
404
00:22:49,635 --> 00:22:52,503
- That wasn't nothing.
- No, don't sell yourself short.
405
00:22:52,505 --> 00:22:55,773
Ms. Duquette, Mr. Parenti,
we all thought it took courage,
406
00:22:55,775 --> 00:22:57,942
especially considering
how y'all do each other.
407
00:22:57,944 --> 00:23:00,644
- You think?
- Yeah.
408
00:23:00,646 --> 00:23:03,948
Now, look, you're showing
a lot of progress in class.
409
00:23:03,950 --> 00:23:05,483
I mean, you know that,
don't you?
410
00:23:05,485 --> 00:23:08,452
You know,
you're doing the work,
you're not acting out.
411
00:23:08,454 --> 00:23:12,089
It's getting to the point
where you can go back
to regular class.
412
00:23:12,091 --> 00:23:14,091
- No problem.
- Back to gen-pop?
413
00:23:14,093 --> 00:23:17,495
- Mm-hmm.
- You want me to go?
414
00:23:17,497 --> 00:23:19,764
Well, if you're ready.
415
00:23:22,568 --> 00:23:24,468
I ain't going back there.
416
00:23:24,470 --> 00:23:25,836
Why not?
417
00:23:25,838 --> 00:23:28,773
Shit they teach
there be deadly.
418
00:23:29,409 --> 00:23:31,976
But I know
you know that, Bunny.
419
00:23:31,978 --> 00:23:35,079
All right, all right!
All right, all right!
420
00:23:35,081 --> 00:23:37,448
We can squeeze
a little money
from here and there,
421
00:23:37,450 --> 00:23:39,583
but nothing on the scale
for what you're asking.
422
00:23:39,585 --> 00:23:40,751
Maybe free up
some operating money
423
00:23:40,753 --> 00:23:44,622
by shifting some
of these pay-go projects
into the capital program.
424
00:23:44,624 --> 00:23:47,691
I can steal a little from
the budget stabilization fund,
425
00:23:47,693 --> 00:23:51,128
but we still got to absorb
120 grant positions
426
00:23:51,130 --> 00:23:53,130
in the police department,
mostly officers.
427
00:23:53,132 --> 00:23:54,698
Christ, don't let those
go unfunded.
428
00:23:54,700 --> 00:23:58,035
A lot of balls in the air
and I still haven't seen
the schools' budget.
429
00:23:58,037 --> 00:23:59,770
What about
the revenue surplus?
430
00:23:59,772 --> 00:24:01,172
As I said,
that's one-time money.
431
00:24:01,174 --> 00:24:03,908
I'm going to give
the police a 5% raise,
that's forever.
432
00:24:03,910 --> 00:24:05,476
If I'm going to ask
the police department
433
00:24:05,478 --> 00:24:07,678
to get up
on its hind legs and fight,
I got to throw some money.
434
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,513
You're telling me
how I can't do,
not how I can.
435
00:24:09,515 --> 00:24:12,817
There's the rainy day fund,
but we really shouldn't
draw that down.
436
00:24:12,819 --> 00:24:16,654
The bond rating houses
want at least 5% of
the budget in reserve.
437
00:24:16,656 --> 00:24:18,889
Feels like
a rainy day to me.
438
00:24:18,891 --> 00:24:21,692
Cloudy like
a motherfucker.
439
00:24:21,694 --> 00:24:25,729
- Boy: Yo, yo, wait up, yo.
- ( chatter )
440
00:24:33,072 --> 00:24:34,972
Hey, yo.
Check it.
441
00:24:34,974 --> 00:24:37,608
- Fuck is up with y'all?
- Ain't you, Mike.
442
00:24:37,610 --> 00:24:39,109
Wanna have a word
with your boy here.
443
00:24:39,111 --> 00:24:41,979
Ain't nothing
stopping you. Talk.
444
00:24:41,981 --> 00:24:44,748
- You know what we mean.
- The little bitch is talking
to the police.
445
00:24:44,750 --> 00:24:46,884
- That's a lie. I ain't
been doing no snitching.
- The fuck you ain't.
446
00:24:46,886 --> 00:24:49,153
He look like he about
to pee on hisself
right now, man.
447
00:24:49,155 --> 00:24:53,157
- ( laughing )
- You ain't gonna stand by
no rat motherfucker, is you?
448
00:24:53,159 --> 00:24:57,528
( boy rapping
in background )
449
00:25:01,767 --> 00:25:05,736
Naw, I ain't standing
with no rat.
450
00:25:10,710 --> 00:25:13,878
( crowd yelling )
451
00:25:17,083 --> 00:25:18,849
These here be
them 18-hour junks.
452
00:25:18,851 --> 00:25:20,551
Go to bed, wake up,
still be hot.
453
00:25:20,553 --> 00:25:22,887
Man, feel this one
from three hours ago.
454
00:25:22,889 --> 00:25:25,589
- Oh, yeah.
- You see what I'm saying?
Two for one.
455
00:25:25,591 --> 00:25:29,894
Each pack come with two pads.
Buy five, I give you six.
456
00:25:29,896 --> 00:25:31,195
Gimme six, then.
457
00:25:31,197 --> 00:25:33,264
( chattering )
458
00:25:33,266 --> 00:25:34,765
Obliged, sir, obliged.
459
00:25:34,767 --> 00:25:37,668
Take this side,
I'll take this side.
460
00:25:38,771 --> 00:25:39,837
Bubbles depot.
461
00:25:39,839 --> 00:25:41,605
Bubbles depot
got what you need.
462
00:25:41,607 --> 00:25:44,275
Y'all come see.
Come see me.
463
00:25:44,277 --> 00:25:47,111
Oh, lookie, lookie--
hey, Sherrod!
464
00:25:47,113 --> 00:25:49,880
Whoo-oo.
What up?
465
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:53,150
Come here.
A car must've hit it
or some shit.
466
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,320
- How much you think?
- Aluminum?
467
00:25:56,322 --> 00:25:59,590
Aluminum about 30,
40 cent a pound.
468
00:25:59,592 --> 00:26:02,326
We've got a Benjamin
here easy, baby.
469
00:26:04,564 --> 00:26:06,096
Yeah.
470
00:26:06,098 --> 00:26:07,698
Teamwork payin' off today,
ain't it, baby?
471
00:26:07,700 --> 00:26:10,234
- Yeah.
- Go get the heavy side.
Don't even try it.
472
00:26:10,236 --> 00:26:13,837
( crowd yelling )
473
00:26:14,574 --> 00:26:16,874
Get out of the way!
474
00:26:16,876 --> 00:26:19,143
- That's enough!
- ( groans )
475
00:26:20,179 --> 00:26:21,645
Get out of here!
476
00:26:21,647 --> 00:26:22,880
That's enough!
Break it up!
477
00:26:22,882 --> 00:26:26,617
Hey, Randy, you bitch.
We ain't even done with
your snitchin' ass.
478
00:26:26,619 --> 00:26:28,586
Come on, man.
479
00:26:28,921 --> 00:26:31,956
Guess them books
are good for something.
480
00:26:35,194 --> 00:26:39,663
- Somebody call the nurse.
- Yo, why they banged me?
481
00:26:39,665 --> 00:26:43,334
- I ain't no snitch.
- Randy, Randy, it's okay.
482
00:26:43,336 --> 00:26:47,104
- ( music playing )
- ( chatter )
483
00:26:47,106 --> 00:26:48,739
Hey, Mason.
484
00:26:48,741 --> 00:26:52,843
McNulty order.
Thanks a lot.
485
00:26:57,216 --> 00:26:59,617
Health department
shut Chicken George again?
486
00:26:59,619 --> 00:27:01,018
I had to duck in here
for cover.
487
00:27:01,020 --> 00:27:03,854
Your boys
off the hook today.
488
00:27:13,933 --> 00:27:16,033
Not a good day to be
cross-eyed in West Baltimore.
489
00:27:16,035 --> 00:27:19,103
What, y'all behind on
your quotas or some shit?
490
00:27:19,105 --> 00:27:20,871
What the fuck?
491
00:27:21,307 --> 00:27:23,407
Seems one of my side
got jumped last night.
492
00:27:23,409 --> 00:27:25,909
Yeah, Walker.
I heard about that shit.
493
00:27:25,911 --> 00:27:29,647
- Threw paint on him.
- ( laughs )
494
00:27:31,951 --> 00:27:34,752
Walker's an asshole.
495
00:27:35,755 --> 00:27:37,354
Hey, you play in dirt,
you get dirty.
496
00:27:37,356 --> 00:27:40,858
Dispatcher:
7-adam-14, do you copy?
497
00:27:40,860 --> 00:27:43,060
Go ahead, K.G.A.
498
00:27:43,062 --> 00:27:46,897
Report of a burglary
19 North Monroe.
499
00:27:46,899 --> 00:27:49,299
Copy.
500
00:27:50,703 --> 00:27:52,870
We should do this again.
501
00:27:53,406 --> 00:27:56,674
- Don't go making
any furtive moves.
- No doubt.
502
00:27:56,676 --> 00:27:58,809
Don't break a pencil point.
503
00:28:03,716 --> 00:28:09,153
Mr. P., I swear
I only told the police
what everybody know.
504
00:28:12,425 --> 00:28:14,792
Does that make me
a snitch, Michael?
505
00:28:14,794 --> 00:28:16,860
Shouldn't oughta
told nobody nothing.
506
00:28:16,862 --> 00:28:20,230
But that don't make
you a snitch, not if
you ain't put nobody in.
507
00:28:20,232 --> 00:28:22,166
Jesus.
I should have
stopped this.
508
00:28:22,168 --> 00:28:23,701
Dukie: It ain't
your fault, Mr. P.
509
00:28:23,703 --> 00:28:25,736
I mean, all this come up
because of what Tiffanie
510
00:28:25,738 --> 00:28:26,937
said happened
in the bathroom.
511
00:28:26,939 --> 00:28:28,472
What did you tell them, Randy?
What do they know?
512
00:28:28,474 --> 00:28:32,376
I just told them about Lex
going up to the playground
behind Fulton,
513
00:28:32,378 --> 00:28:34,111
how everybody
said he got killed
514
00:28:34,113 --> 00:28:36,747
- and put in one of
them boarded-up houses.
- That's all you told them?
515
00:28:36,749 --> 00:28:41,785
I mean, they wanted me
to say that I was there,
but...
516
00:28:41,787 --> 00:28:43,854
I just told them that
Little Kevin told me.
517
00:28:43,856 --> 00:28:45,923
- Little Kevin?
- Dukie: He killed, too.
518
00:28:45,925 --> 00:28:47,324
I mean,
Marlo got him, too.
519
00:28:47,326 --> 00:28:50,194
That's what everybody
saying, anyway.
520
00:28:50,196 --> 00:28:52,963
Marlo Stanfield?
521
00:28:52,965 --> 00:28:55,365
Dukie:
I heard Kevin got
locked up just last week.
522
00:28:55,367 --> 00:28:57,501
Now he's supposed to be
up in a house somewhere.
523
00:28:57,503 --> 00:29:00,304
They put him
in a vacant, too, huh?
524
00:29:01,207 --> 00:29:05,843
Okay, Randy, for now,
I want to say Michael's right.
525
00:29:05,845 --> 00:29:07,945
If anyone tries
to talk to you again,
526
00:29:07,947 --> 00:29:11,749
say nothing to anyone,
understand?
527
00:29:11,751 --> 00:29:13,884
Will that make it better?
528
00:29:15,788 --> 00:29:19,156
So in sum, gentlemen,
the gods have spoken.
529
00:29:19,158 --> 00:29:21,825
No longer do we live
and die by stats.
530
00:29:21,827 --> 00:29:24,828
From this day forward,
we are about quality arrests,
531
00:29:24,830 --> 00:29:26,430
felonies,
serious misdemeanors,
532
00:29:26,432 --> 00:29:29,399
the back-to-basics police work
of our sainted fathers.
533
00:29:29,401 --> 00:29:31,769
Still, the truth is
it would be easier
534
00:29:31,771 --> 00:29:33,937
to turn an oil tanker
around in a puddle.
535
00:29:33,939 --> 00:29:37,374
Our people were raised
on stats.
536
00:29:37,376 --> 00:29:40,778
If you can't bend patrol
to the mission, Eugene,
537
00:29:40,780 --> 00:29:44,548
I'll damn sure find
someone who can.
538
00:29:44,550 --> 00:29:46,817
Gentlemen.
539
00:29:49,255 --> 00:29:51,488
Sir.
540
00:29:53,859 --> 00:29:55,459
Along the line of
what you propose,
541
00:29:55,461 --> 00:29:57,394
I'd like to reconstitute
the Major Crimes Unit,
542
00:29:57,396 --> 00:29:59,062
bring it under
the umbrella of homicide.
543
00:29:59,064 --> 00:30:03,233
And let me guess,
you'd like to shake up
the personnel.
544
00:30:03,235 --> 00:30:05,536
Where appropriate.
545
00:30:07,072 --> 00:30:08,939
Go for it, Colonel.
546
00:30:12,144 --> 00:30:13,911
( chuckling )
547
00:30:14,346 --> 00:30:17,481
- What?
- Smart move,
accepting any ideas
548
00:30:17,483 --> 00:30:21,251
whatsoever come from
the anointed fella.
549
00:30:21,253 --> 00:30:23,253
Daniels.
The next commissioner.
550
00:30:23,255 --> 00:30:25,556
Any cocksucker that
manages to go from
551
00:30:25,558 --> 00:30:30,294
lieutenant to full bird
in a little more than a year
552
00:30:30,296 --> 00:30:32,229
is getting groomed.
553
00:30:32,231 --> 00:30:36,867
Wait... you didn't
for a minute think that...
554
00:30:36,869 --> 00:30:40,137
Aw, Jesus, Bill.
It's Baltimore.
555
00:30:40,139 --> 00:30:44,308
You ain't one
of the natives, are ya?
556
00:30:44,310 --> 00:30:46,844
( laughing )
557
00:30:57,356 --> 00:30:59,256
You see where they went?
558
00:30:59,258 --> 00:31:02,893
El Gordo and tall man,
they go in a big room.
559
00:31:02,895 --> 00:31:03,861
First floor.
560
00:31:03,863 --> 00:31:06,330
Sign outside say
"New Day Coop."
561
00:31:06,332 --> 00:31:09,933
Coop?
What's a coop?
562
00:31:09,935 --> 00:31:12,102
New Day Coop.
That's what it say.
563
00:31:12,104 --> 00:31:15,239
Hey, yo, was there, like,
a bar between the two Os?
564
00:31:15,241 --> 00:31:19,476
- Si, exactly.
- Yeah, that's co-op.
565
00:31:19,478 --> 00:31:21,011
Prop Joe in a co-op?
566
00:31:21,013 --> 00:31:22,946
Joe go in with the man
we robbed.
567
00:31:22,948 --> 00:31:26,016
Remember el tipo,
he fall down on his knees,
568
00:31:26,018 --> 00:31:27,084
wept like a little baby.
569
00:31:27,086 --> 00:31:30,153
Yeah, Fat Face Ricky.
Anybody else?
570
00:31:30,155 --> 00:31:34,358
Si, como eight or nine
others I never see before,
571
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,660
but all the same to me,
you know?
572
00:31:36,662 --> 00:31:37,995
Narcotraficantes.
573
00:31:37,997 --> 00:31:41,164
Prop Joe done sat down
to the table.
574
00:31:43,135 --> 00:31:44,601
Oh, do tell.
575
00:31:44,603 --> 00:31:48,138
The worm done came
full circle.
576
00:31:49,408 --> 00:31:51,275
Marlo.
577
00:31:51,277 --> 00:31:54,144
- Que?
- If it's what
I think it is,
578
00:31:54,146 --> 00:31:56,480
our little
clutch of chickens
might be putting
579
00:31:56,482 --> 00:31:58,315
all their eggs
up in one basket.
580
00:31:58,317 --> 00:32:03,053
- Is good?
- Muy bueno, baby.
581
00:32:03,489 --> 00:32:08,292
I know one thing--
I wouldn't walk around with it
on my neck for Walker to find.
582
00:32:08,294 --> 00:32:11,628
- He ain't gonna find it.
- You crazy even taking
a chance.
583
00:32:11,630 --> 00:32:16,300
If he catch you with it,
he gonna break more
than them fingers.
584
00:32:18,137 --> 00:32:19,603
Man, what up with you?
585
00:32:19,605 --> 00:32:21,972
It's like lately
you gone all...
586
00:32:21,974 --> 00:32:24,207
like taking off
the mask, yo.
587
00:32:24,209 --> 00:32:27,511
What up with that?
If Walker got a look--
588
00:32:27,513 --> 00:32:29,012
He didn't.
589
00:32:29,014 --> 00:32:30,681
Well, what about the thing
with you and Randy?
590
00:32:30,683 --> 00:32:32,382
Everybody now say
you threw down with him,
591
00:32:32,384 --> 00:32:34,217
busted up the boy
Dimples and them.
592
00:32:34,219 --> 00:32:37,020
- Yo, you wouldn't
have stood tall?
- That's not what I'm saying.
593
00:32:37,022 --> 00:32:39,990
It's not that you do shit,
it's how you do it.
594
00:32:39,992 --> 00:32:42,526
Yo, look, I'm not trying
to stand around
595
00:32:42,528 --> 00:32:46,997
and let no chump-ass niggers
think I'm shook.
596
00:32:46,999 --> 00:32:49,066
I ain't.
597
00:32:57,309 --> 00:33:02,079
- And?
- And I want you
to sign up.
598
00:33:07,086 --> 00:33:09,519
Colonel,
there's the matter of--
599
00:33:09,521 --> 00:33:13,223
You find yourself
incompatible with
a certain lieutenant?
600
00:33:13,225 --> 00:33:17,060
Detective Freamon,
you have cart blanche
in picking your squad.
601
00:33:17,062 --> 00:33:21,732
In fact, you can pick
your supervisor
for all I care.
602
00:33:29,141 --> 00:33:31,241
Motherfucker,
as far as I'm concerned,
603
00:33:31,243 --> 00:33:34,077
you are
the Major Crimes Unit.
604
00:33:34,079 --> 00:33:36,279
It's morning
in Baltimore, Lester.
605
00:33:36,281 --> 00:33:39,483
Wake up and smell
the coffee.
606
00:33:39,485 --> 00:33:42,185
( siren blaring )
607
00:33:43,155 --> 00:33:46,023
- Reinforcements?
- Carver.
608
00:33:46,025 --> 00:33:49,126
Damn, boy!
What brings you back
to the plantation?
609
00:33:49,128 --> 00:33:50,360
I trusted you.
Trusted Daniels.
610
00:33:50,362 --> 00:33:53,697
- My fucking mistake, huh?
- Whoa, hold up. What's wrong?
611
00:33:53,699 --> 00:33:55,265
The kid you were
supposed to protect.
612
00:33:55,267 --> 00:33:56,433
You put his name
on the street.
613
00:33:56,435 --> 00:33:59,736
They were beating him
in front of the school today,
stomping on him for snitching.
614
00:33:59,738 --> 00:34:01,471
- Jesus. He all right?
- It's always the same.
615
00:34:01,473 --> 00:34:03,073
I should have fucking
seen this coming.
616
00:34:03,075 --> 00:34:04,474
I swear to you,
I don't know what happened.
617
00:34:04,476 --> 00:34:06,810
I hooked the kid into Bunk,
Moreland, and Herc.
618
00:34:06,812 --> 00:34:11,148
I can't believe--
where's the kid now?
619
00:34:11,150 --> 00:34:11,815
Home.
620
00:34:11,817 --> 00:34:13,583
Let me go give this
to the night commander.
621
00:34:13,585 --> 00:34:15,485
We'll park
a plainclothes unit
on the house.
622
00:34:15,487 --> 00:34:16,653
You think that
makes it better?
623
00:34:16,655 --> 00:34:19,389
We'll be discreet,
set up down the block
or some shit.
624
00:34:19,391 --> 00:34:21,224
Come on inside.
I swear to you,
625
00:34:21,226 --> 00:34:24,394
I'm gonna find out
what happened.
626
00:34:33,705 --> 00:34:35,806
( keypad beeping )
627
00:35:41,507 --> 00:35:43,740
( music playing )
628
00:35:43,742 --> 00:35:45,275
- Ed Bowers.
- Pleasure to meet you.
629
00:35:45,277 --> 00:35:47,911
- You surprised us all.
Congratulations, Mr. Mayor.
- Thanks.
630
00:35:47,913 --> 00:35:49,679
- I'd like to introduce you
to Dorothy.
- Hi.
631
00:35:49,681 --> 00:35:53,250
- You've heard about Ed Nully?
- I've heard great things about
what you've been doing,
632
00:35:53,252 --> 00:35:55,452
- so keep it up.
- I'm delighted you
made it, Mr. Mayor.
633
00:35:55,454 --> 00:35:56,786
Well, it's for
a good cause, right?
634
00:35:56,788 --> 00:36:00,524
I am getting
the evil eye, however.
I gotta keep him circulating.
635
00:36:00,526 --> 00:36:01,791
- Okay.
- This way.
636
00:36:01,793 --> 00:36:03,894
- See you later.
- Take care.
637
00:36:21,747 --> 00:36:24,681
The Washington crowd
is driving the local
real estate market now
638
00:36:24,683 --> 00:36:28,685
and if the Harbor
Promenade could extend
to the South Branch--
639
00:36:28,687 --> 00:36:29,920
- We're looking at that.
- Should be.
640
00:36:29,922 --> 00:36:32,522
Everything from here
to Hanover Street is money.
641
00:36:32,524 --> 00:36:33,823
Mr. Mayor,
play a little poker?
642
00:36:33,825 --> 00:36:35,859
- I'm not very lucky.
- Luck can change.
643
00:36:35,861 --> 00:36:40,430
- Mr. Mayor, I'd like you
to meet Ray Chandler.
- Pleasure to meet you.
644
00:36:56,281 --> 00:36:58,682
( siren blaring )
645
00:36:58,684 --> 00:37:01,785
( TV playing
in background )
646
00:37:09,394 --> 00:37:13,863
Boy, either you gonna
do it or I'm gonna.
647
00:37:13,865 --> 00:37:18,802
- ( scissors clatter )
- There's a reason the police
keep jumping out at you, Nay.
648
00:37:21,707 --> 00:37:24,608
So, was it
the Bunk's cologne, huh?
649
00:37:24,610 --> 00:37:26,476
( sniffing )
Oh, the pussy.
650
00:37:26,478 --> 00:37:28,979
( chuckles )
I'm gonna miss you,
too, bitch.
651
00:37:28,981 --> 00:37:32,682
Lester do love listening
to other people's phone calls,
don't you?
652
00:37:32,684 --> 00:37:33,883
A bit of a pervert
that way.
653
00:37:33,885 --> 00:37:36,319
Kima:
You could use
a wiretap case or two.
654
00:37:36,321 --> 00:37:38,722
- Broaden your horizons.
- Oh, no, no.
655
00:37:38,724 --> 00:37:41,858
The Bunk is strictly
a suit-and-tie motherfucker.
656
00:37:41,860 --> 00:37:45,362
( British accent )
At all hazards, a man
must keep up appearances.
657
00:37:45,364 --> 00:37:47,797
Dignity, I say.
Dignity above all.
658
00:37:47,799 --> 00:37:48,932
Governor, hear, hear!
659
00:37:48,934 --> 00:37:51,801
- Bunk, you got a minute?
- What's up?
660
00:37:51,803 --> 00:37:55,472
- The Wagstaff kid
I sent your way.
- Wagstaff? He one of mine?
661
00:37:55,474 --> 00:37:56,673
Yeah, you were looking
for the boy Lex,
662
00:37:56,675 --> 00:38:00,010
shot someone outside
a nightclub a couple--
three months back.
663
00:38:00,012 --> 00:38:01,978
This kid knew about
Lex getting killed.
664
00:38:01,980 --> 00:38:04,948
Herc brought him to you.
665
00:38:04,950 --> 00:38:06,916
Herc?
666
00:38:06,918 --> 00:38:09,352
This kid is a witness
and Herc was supposed
to bring him to me?
667
00:38:09,354 --> 00:38:13,923
- That was the plan.
- I'm gonna skin that
motherfucker.
668
00:38:16,295 --> 00:38:19,929
Jesus, Herc.
The fuck did you do?
669
00:38:19,931 --> 00:38:22,299
Something happen
to that boy?
670
00:38:23,001 --> 00:38:24,834
Well, young man,
your wish has come true.
671
00:38:24,836 --> 00:38:26,403
So this mean I can
finally get out of here?
672
00:38:26,405 --> 00:38:29,339
Yes, Monell,
paperwork was slow
coming in from North Avenue,
673
00:38:29,341 --> 00:38:32,709
but you five are
at the age where we feel
it's to your advantage
674
00:38:32,711 --> 00:38:35,312
to join your peers
in the ninth grade.
675
00:38:35,314 --> 00:38:36,913
- Yo, we in high school!
- When we bump?
676
00:38:36,915 --> 00:38:39,382
Mrs. Donnelly:
The end of this
marking period.
677
00:38:39,384 --> 00:38:40,850
Congratulations.
678
00:38:40,852 --> 00:38:42,819
You're excused.
679
00:38:42,821 --> 00:38:45,955
Woman on P.A.:
Mr. Johnson, you have
a visitor in the front office.
680
00:38:45,957 --> 00:38:49,693
Mr. Johnson,
please come down
to the front office.
681
00:38:49,695 --> 00:38:52,996
- Bad news?
- Plenty more
to go around.
682
00:38:52,998 --> 00:38:56,666
They pulled the pin
on your program.
683
00:38:59,705 --> 00:39:00,637
( applause )
684
00:39:00,639 --> 00:39:03,907
As I've been saying
this week at every roll call
in every damn district,
685
00:39:03,909 --> 00:39:05,775
if I could scrape together
any more, I would,
686
00:39:05,777 --> 00:39:09,479
but for starters,
it's a 5% salary year,
and that's a given.
687
00:39:09,481 --> 00:39:10,780
I know it's not half
what you deserve,
688
00:39:10,782 --> 00:39:11,981
but if the revenue
estimates stay good,
689
00:39:11,983 --> 00:39:16,619
- I promise,
you'll be seeing more.
- ( applause )
690
00:39:16,621 --> 00:39:20,890
Mr. Mayor!
My wife thanks you,
my children thank you,
691
00:39:20,892 --> 00:39:22,692
- my dog thanks you.
- ( laughter )
692
00:39:22,694 --> 00:39:25,428
Hey, Santa,
how you able to tell
your wife from your mutt?
693
00:39:25,430 --> 00:39:26,930
His wife,
she's the one's
got the fleas.
694
00:39:26,932 --> 00:39:31,034
Shit, Bobby,
with your old lady,
fleas would be an improvement.
695
00:39:31,036 --> 00:39:33,002
At ease.
We got the mayor
here, gentlemen.
696
00:39:33,004 --> 00:39:35,538
When they sit
in one place too long,
they get a little feisty.
697
00:39:35,540 --> 00:39:38,108
I'm not gonna stand here
and pretend I know
how to do your job.
698
00:39:38,110 --> 00:39:40,944
I don't, but what I can
tell you is that during
the past few weeks
699
00:39:40,946 --> 00:39:44,714
I have spoken with
many of your peers,
with your union reps,
700
00:39:44,716 --> 00:39:46,149
with the representatives
of the F.O.P.,
701
00:39:46,151 --> 00:39:48,651
and the biggest single
complaint I'm hearing
702
00:39:48,653 --> 00:39:51,421
concerns the department's
obsession with stats.
703
00:39:51,423 --> 00:39:52,589
It's the fucking
numbers game.
704
00:39:52,591 --> 00:39:54,491
Well, under my watch,
the numbers game is over.
705
00:39:54,493 --> 00:39:57,093
You will no longer
be under the gun to
meet monthly quotas
706
00:39:57,095 --> 00:40:01,064
of ineffective,
meaningless arrests
and citations.
707
00:40:01,066 --> 00:40:02,565
( applause )
708
00:40:02,567 --> 00:40:03,733
Excuse me,
Your Worship.
709
00:40:03,735 --> 00:40:07,070
You're not the first person
who stood at the podium
making promises.
710
00:40:07,072 --> 00:40:08,905
Jimmy, I'm sure the mayor
has some pressing business.
711
00:40:08,907 --> 00:40:11,574
No, I'm just saying,
the first community activist
who pitches a bitch
712
00:40:11,576 --> 00:40:13,476
about the corner activity
in her neighborhood,
713
00:40:13,478 --> 00:40:15,512
aren't we gonna go right back
to rounding up bodies?
714
00:40:15,514 --> 00:40:17,947
Yeah, well, we need
to educate our citizens
to the new approach.
715
00:40:17,949 --> 00:40:19,949
Well, they're not the only ones
who need educating.
716
00:40:19,951 --> 00:40:22,485
We got bosses that
wouldn't know police work
if it bit 'em in the ass.
717
00:40:22,487 --> 00:40:24,487
- ( laughter )
- They been juking
stats for years
718
00:40:24,489 --> 00:40:27,724
and they'll do it again once
the neighborhoods complain.
It's all they know.
719
00:40:27,726 --> 00:40:29,793
Yeah, well, if the old dogs
can't get the job done,
720
00:40:29,795 --> 00:40:31,961
I'll find new ones
who can.
721
00:40:33,064 --> 00:40:35,865
Look, for years,
I sat on the back bench
of the council
722
00:40:35,867 --> 00:40:37,434
and watched
our city deteriorate.
723
00:40:37,436 --> 00:40:40,203
It was business as usual
with the same old ideas
724
00:40:40,205 --> 00:40:42,038
producing
the same old results.
725
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:43,606
Well, I'm here now,
as you are,
726
00:40:43,608 --> 00:40:47,510
and I'm asking you
to put aside your reservations
and give it a go.
727
00:40:47,512 --> 00:40:49,679
( applause )
728
00:40:51,650 --> 00:40:53,616
All told.
729
00:40:54,553 --> 00:40:55,752
You did good.
730
00:40:55,754 --> 00:40:56,920
You got 'em pumped.
They love you.
731
00:40:56,922 --> 00:41:02,692
Of course, the wrong decision
on Sergeant Hauk, and who knows?
732
00:41:03,795 --> 00:41:06,796
Carv said the kid
had something on it.
I talked to him.
733
00:41:06,798 --> 00:41:10,567
He had nothing,
just a bunch of hearsay
and some shit about zombies.
734
00:41:10,569 --> 00:41:14,170
The boy was to come to me.
You know the goddamn G.O.--
it's homicide's call.
735
00:41:14,172 --> 00:41:16,873
You don't go putting
your paws in my murder,
you simple fuck.
736
00:41:16,875 --> 00:41:18,141
Hey! You're talking
to a sergeant.
737
00:41:18,143 --> 00:41:21,878
- Oh, fuck your fucking stripes!
- Freamon: Whoa, whoa,
take it easy, Bunk.
738
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,780
Now, Herc is trying
to help us, here.
739
00:41:23,782 --> 00:41:25,482
Man, he messed
in my murder, he pays.
740
00:41:25,484 --> 00:41:27,484
Give him a chance.
We can work something out.
741
00:41:27,486 --> 00:41:31,020
That's easy for you to say.
You ain't the primary on this.
742
00:41:31,022 --> 00:41:33,923
This motherfucker.
743
00:41:36,561 --> 00:41:39,829
- What got into him?
- He's emotional.
744
00:41:39,831 --> 00:41:43,199
He's been working this case
for a long time.
745
00:41:43,935 --> 00:41:45,969
So the thing right now
is for you to remember
746
00:41:45,971 --> 00:41:48,271
everything you did
on this case.
747
00:41:48,273 --> 00:41:51,040
From the beginning.
748
00:42:01,286 --> 00:42:04,921
He's out there,
hat in hand, literally.
749
00:42:04,923 --> 00:42:06,856
Well, he can wait
till hell freezes over.
750
00:42:06,858 --> 00:42:09,659
A wise man does not
burn his bridges
751
00:42:09,661 --> 00:42:11,961
until he first knows
he can part the waters.
752
00:42:11,963 --> 00:42:16,666
- Old Ashanti saying.
- Norman, you grew up
in Catonsville.
753
00:42:18,169 --> 00:42:19,669
( sighs )
754
00:42:19,671 --> 00:42:21,905
Show the motherfucker in.
755
00:42:30,649 --> 00:42:33,283
Mr. Mayor, you know,
I don't want to take
756
00:42:33,285 --> 00:42:34,918
time out of
your busy schedule.
757
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,287
Look, if this is about me
countermanding your orders
758
00:42:37,289 --> 00:42:38,855
- for more arrests--
- No, sir.
759
00:42:38,857 --> 00:42:42,191
You should proceed as you feel
the situation warrants.
760
00:42:42,193 --> 00:42:44,327
Overall policing strategies
761
00:42:44,329 --> 00:42:46,162
may not be
my strongest suit.
762
00:42:46,164 --> 00:42:48,565
I'm here about
what I do know.
763
00:42:48,567 --> 00:42:51,134
A recommendation from
Sergeant Hauk's commander
764
00:42:51,136 --> 00:42:52,902
will cross your desk
tomorrow.
765
00:42:52,904 --> 00:42:55,572
Colonel Daniels,
with Rawls concurring,
766
00:42:55,574 --> 00:42:58,841
recommends
sensitivity training.
767
00:42:58,843 --> 00:43:00,777
It may be
a fair decision,
768
00:43:00,779 --> 00:43:02,845
it may even be
the right decision.
769
00:43:02,847 --> 00:43:06,115
But we both know
it won't fly with
the ministers,
770
00:43:06,117 --> 00:43:09,218
not even with
Daniels behind it.
771
00:43:09,220 --> 00:43:10,920
Hmm.
772
00:43:13,992 --> 00:43:17,961
600 pages of rules,
regulations,
773
00:43:17,963 --> 00:43:19,963
directives, orders.
774
00:43:21,766 --> 00:43:26,803
You fire a white police
for a bad car stop on
a black minister,
775
00:43:26,805 --> 00:43:29,072
you'll lose
the rank-and-file.
776
00:43:29,074 --> 00:43:30,273
It's not cause enough,
777
00:43:30,275 --> 00:43:32,909
but if a commander
can't find the grounds
778
00:43:32,911 --> 00:43:35,778
for firing a saint
in here...
779
00:43:36,815 --> 00:43:39,882
The man has worked narcotics
for six years,
780
00:43:39,884 --> 00:43:44,087
and in narcotics,
there are no virgins.
781
00:43:44,089 --> 00:43:48,124
And herein lies
your expertise?
782
00:43:48,126 --> 00:43:52,862
I've always been comfortable
delegating strategic elements.
783
00:43:52,864 --> 00:43:54,998
It's what the Deputy Ops
is for.
784
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:59,769
Me, I know
what a mayor needs.
785
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,373
- It was a Chevy Tahoe.
- Mm-hmm.
786
00:44:03,375 --> 00:44:07,377
License
Mike-4-6-0-6-5-4.
787
00:44:07,379 --> 00:44:10,113
And I searched it good,
figuring I'd find some iron,
788
00:44:10,115 --> 00:44:12,215
- but--
- How'd they react?
789
00:44:12,217 --> 00:44:14,784
Chris and Snoop?
They didn't do shit.
790
00:44:14,786 --> 00:44:15,952
Was there anything
in the car?
791
00:44:15,954 --> 00:44:18,688
Registration and crap
in the glove box,
792
00:44:18,690 --> 00:44:20,657
empty chicken boxes,
trash.
793
00:44:20,659 --> 00:44:24,127
- They had one of those
plastic milk crates--
- Mm-hmm.
794
00:44:24,129 --> 00:44:27,263
- in the back,
some tools in it.
- What kind of tools?
795
00:44:27,265 --> 00:44:28,898
I don't know,
carpenter tools.
796
00:44:28,900 --> 00:44:31,401
Did you check the crate
for weapons?
797
00:44:31,403 --> 00:44:33,336
- Nail gun.
- Nail gun?
798
00:44:33,338 --> 00:44:35,071
Yeah, one of them bitches
that shoots nails.
799
00:44:35,073 --> 00:44:37,073
They rig it
to shoot rounds, maybe?
800
00:44:37,075 --> 00:44:40,109
No. I shot it.
A nail came out.
801
00:44:40,111 --> 00:44:46,115
- Look, Lester, seriously,
is any of this helping?
- No, you're doing good.
802
00:44:46,685 --> 00:44:51,354
Tell me about jacking Marlo
at the train station.
803
00:44:52,891 --> 00:44:55,725
( grunting )
804
00:45:00,965 --> 00:45:02,732
Man:
I'm short four, right?
805
00:45:02,734 --> 00:45:04,834
Yeah, I remember
your ass.
806
00:45:04,836 --> 00:45:06,402
- Here's my four.
You like that?
- Okay.
807
00:45:06,404 --> 00:45:07,970
- Okay!
- I'm gonna beat your ass.
808
00:45:07,972 --> 00:45:09,372
Okay, no more!
Stop, stop, stop, stop!
809
00:45:09,374 --> 00:45:12,809
Take the money.
Take the money, all right?
Stop.
810
00:45:12,811 --> 00:45:16,212
Make me work this hard again,
I'm gonna skin one of y'all.
811
00:45:16,214 --> 00:45:19,882
Okay. Just go, man.
812
00:45:20,785 --> 00:45:24,821
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, man.
813
00:45:24,823 --> 00:45:28,224
Cheese:
You know who got the fattest
asses and the best pussy?
814
00:45:28,226 --> 00:45:29,859
- Who that?
- Midgets, nigger.
815
00:45:29,861 --> 00:45:31,961
I'm with all that.
You know what I'm saying?
816
00:45:31,963 --> 00:45:34,163
That's how shit--
817
00:45:34,165 --> 00:45:37,133
The fuck happened
to our boy on the door?
818
00:45:37,135 --> 00:45:38,968
Siesta, papa.
819
00:45:38,970 --> 00:45:42,939
- You fix this, Joe?
- ( clock clangs )
820
00:45:45,777 --> 00:45:49,278
- What's the problem?
- Ran out of time.
821
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,247
Now, Joe, you've been
so busy being devious,
822
00:45:51,249 --> 00:45:54,383
you done messed around
and got yourself caught up
in a web.
823
00:45:54,385 --> 00:45:56,119
Omar, I don't know
what you been hearing--
824
00:45:56,121 --> 00:45:58,054
Come on, Joe,
ain't no time
for no lies, now.
825
00:45:58,056 --> 00:45:59,322
Now, see, I need you
to be straight,
826
00:45:59,324 --> 00:46:02,458
just like you did
on that New Day
Co-op sit-down.
827
00:46:02,460 --> 00:46:04,761
Oh, yeah,
I know about that.
828
00:46:04,763 --> 00:46:06,996
I know you the one got Marlo
up in this mess, too.
829
00:46:06,998 --> 00:46:09,499
Hey, Omar,
take a deep breath.
830
00:46:09,501 --> 00:46:13,002
A proposition might fall
kindly on your ear.
831
00:46:13,004 --> 00:46:14,937
Well, tickle my fancy,
fat man.
832
00:46:14,939 --> 00:46:16,939
Money, drugs, your call.
833
00:46:16,941 --> 00:46:18,775
Come on, now, Joe,
you can do better than that.
834
00:46:18,777 --> 00:46:20,810
Hey, we-- we-- we coming
at this all wrong.
835
00:46:20,812 --> 00:46:22,845
See, you the one
with the high card.
836
00:46:22,847 --> 00:46:25,148
You should speak
your mind.
837
00:46:26,451 --> 00:46:29,118
You going to serve up Marlo.
838
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:30,887
You gonna take out
Marlo Stanfield?
839
00:46:30,889 --> 00:46:33,956
No, no, but I got
a real powerful urge
840
00:46:33,958 --> 00:46:35,191
to take everything
he own,
841
00:46:35,193 --> 00:46:37,894
and I'm quite confident
you the man can make
that happen.
842
00:46:37,896 --> 00:46:42,265
- That might take some doing.
- Naw, naw. See, we got
to have it simple.
843
00:46:42,267 --> 00:46:44,333
See, Omar like it simple.
844
00:46:44,335 --> 00:46:47,136
So how we gonna
do this, yo?
845
00:46:48,072 --> 00:46:49,839
Huh?
846
00:46:50,074 --> 00:46:52,909
My sister's boy.
He do the drop.
847
00:46:52,911 --> 00:46:56,846
We call you
and give up the spot.
848
00:46:57,849 --> 00:46:59,315
- That simple enough?
- That's what it is.
849
00:46:59,317 --> 00:47:03,586
See, now, Joe,
I need you to resist
your natural inclination
850
00:47:03,588 --> 00:47:06,355
to do anything twisted up
in this here play.
851
00:47:06,357 --> 00:47:07,123
You feel me?
852
00:47:07,125 --> 00:47:09,592
I even catch a whiff of you
doing something foul, Joe,
853
00:47:09,594 --> 00:47:12,228
I mean, I might
got to go tell Marlo
854
00:47:12,230 --> 00:47:15,198
you the one put me up
on that card game.
855
00:47:16,467 --> 00:47:17,433
We understood?
856
00:47:17,435 --> 00:47:22,238
Now, go ahead and write
my ticket so I can tip on out.
857
00:47:23,908 --> 00:47:25,975
Go on, now.
858
00:47:35,587 --> 00:47:37,553
Gentlemen.
859
00:47:41,893 --> 00:47:44,227
( bells jangling )
860
00:47:47,498 --> 00:47:48,931
I'll see to Tremaine.
861
00:47:48,933 --> 00:47:51,534
- You can't be serious.
- Was you listening?
862
00:47:51,536 --> 00:47:54,637
Omar to one side
holding a spade,
863
00:47:54,639 --> 00:47:58,541
and maybe Marlo
to the other with a shovel,
864
00:47:58,543 --> 00:48:00,476
and just at this moment,
865
00:48:00,478 --> 00:48:04,580
I manage to crawl out
my own damn grave.
866
00:48:05,016 --> 00:48:08,517
No way do I crawl back in.
867
00:48:08,519 --> 00:48:10,987
What the fuck
is you doing out here?
868
00:48:10,989 --> 00:48:14,457
- You trust him?
- I trust his fear.
869
00:48:14,459 --> 00:48:15,224
Now we go, si?
870
00:48:15,226 --> 00:48:20,129
Not till I teach Prop Joe
a thing or two about devious.
871
00:48:21,099 --> 00:48:23,232
We on him now.
872
00:48:26,104 --> 00:48:28,304
Sorry, guys,
that's all I got to say.
Talk to the mom.
873
00:48:28,306 --> 00:48:32,241
I hear you,
but we just came from
his foster mother's house
874
00:48:32,243 --> 00:48:34,911
and she said it was you
that told him not to talk.
875
00:48:34,913 --> 00:48:38,447
- She said you told her
to get a lawyer.
- That's right.
876
00:48:38,650 --> 00:48:41,083
All right, look,
something got messed up.
877
00:48:41,085 --> 00:48:44,253
We know that,
but whatever else happened,
we got a murder here.
878
00:48:44,255 --> 00:48:47,623
Even if it's off the record,
it would help us just
to talk to the boy.
879
00:48:47,625 --> 00:48:49,926
If you understand
what happened here,
880
00:48:49,928 --> 00:48:51,494
you know I'm not
gonna do that.
881
00:48:51,496 --> 00:48:53,996
If you go at it
like that,
882
00:48:53,998 --> 00:48:57,066
then you end up siding
with the motherfuckers
doing the dirt.
883
00:48:57,068 --> 00:49:01,070
No. I'm siding
with my kids.
884
00:49:03,608 --> 00:49:07,109
You're right.
You're right.
885
00:49:07,111 --> 00:49:11,113
For you, the kids
come first.
886
00:49:11,482 --> 00:49:14,183
We'll find another road.
887
00:49:16,487 --> 00:49:21,090
Well, glad this
is working out for you.
888
00:49:23,094 --> 00:49:25,227
Oh, man,
you two...
889
00:49:25,229 --> 00:49:28,264
makin' me
all weepy and shit.
890
00:49:29,233 --> 00:49:31,133
- Be safe, guys.
- All right.
891
00:49:31,135 --> 00:49:36,205
Hey, Roland, man, you know
I hate coming all this way
892
00:49:36,207 --> 00:49:38,341
and not getting
a little something...
893
00:49:38,343 --> 00:49:42,411
you know,
for old time's sake?
894
00:49:46,751 --> 00:49:50,152
The playground
behind Fulton and Monroe,
895
00:49:50,154 --> 00:49:51,754
unit block.
896
00:49:51,756 --> 00:49:55,458
He told this fella Lex
to meet a girl there.
897
00:49:58,596 --> 00:50:01,197
That's all he did.
898
00:50:14,078 --> 00:50:15,778
What's up, shorty?
Can you give me three?
899
00:50:15,780 --> 00:50:20,483
Boy:
Big Bird, y'all.
Bird Bird over here.
900
00:50:20,485 --> 00:50:22,752
Bitch, get the fuck
across the street
901
00:50:22,754 --> 00:50:25,121
and plant your ass
on a stoop.
902
00:50:25,123 --> 00:50:27,590
Namond:
Kenard!
903
00:50:27,592 --> 00:50:30,326
Yo, how you think I look
with no tail on my head?
904
00:50:30,328 --> 00:50:32,628
Do I look like a faggy?
905
00:50:32,630 --> 00:50:35,097
Yo, Nay.
906
00:50:37,535 --> 00:50:39,735
Boy:
Big Yellow Bird!
907
00:50:41,739 --> 00:50:43,305
Yo, Mrs. Lee,
you looking for Michael?
908
00:50:43,307 --> 00:50:46,709
Naw. Um, Namond,
I don't want to be
no trouble to you,
909
00:50:46,711 --> 00:50:48,511
but I got this friend
who been ailing,
910
00:50:48,513 --> 00:50:50,746
you know,
and she gave me $6,
911
00:50:50,748 --> 00:50:54,750
so I was hoping
you could, you know.
912
00:50:57,321 --> 00:51:01,357
Yeah, we cover her.
Go see my man.
913
00:51:01,759 --> 00:51:04,160
Kenard:
The fuck you do that for?
914
00:51:04,162 --> 00:51:05,661
It's Michael moms, yo.
915
00:51:05,663 --> 00:51:07,396
Shit, she a fucking
dope fiend.
916
00:51:07,398 --> 00:51:09,432
- Namond said I could. Nay?
- Naw, it's cool.
917
00:51:09,434 --> 00:51:14,236
- Gimme Yellow Bird.
- Boy #2: All right, yo, but you
ain't got to be all up on me.
918
00:51:14,238 --> 00:51:16,539
I know, I know!
I'm late, you know?
919
00:51:16,541 --> 00:51:22,144
Sometimes it's just too much
damn fun being in charge.
920
00:51:28,786 --> 00:51:29,819
Where you been, boss?
921
00:51:29,821 --> 00:51:31,720
Announcing my presence
with authority.
922
00:51:31,722 --> 00:51:34,790
Sorry I'm late.
Please sit down. Sit.
923
00:51:35,526 --> 00:51:37,359
Sir, we scarfed up
52 vehicles.
924
00:51:37,361 --> 00:51:40,162
- Good, but you missed my car.
- ( Norman chuckles )
925
00:51:40,164 --> 00:51:43,499
We have new equipment
at school 45, school 52,
926
00:51:43,501 --> 00:51:44,500
and school 58 installed.
927
00:51:44,502 --> 00:51:46,402
Well, I got no calls on those,
but keep at it, though.
928
00:51:46,404 --> 00:51:51,574
- You'll get there, I'm sure.
- Mr. Mayor, all hydrants are
fully capped as of today,
929
00:51:51,576 --> 00:51:53,809
and solid waste
has pulled 32 tons of trash
930
00:51:53,811 --> 00:51:56,512
from the alleys, and, sir,
that's a single day record.
931
00:51:56,514 --> 00:51:57,847
That's what I want to hear.
932
00:51:57,849 --> 00:52:01,684
Thank you, gentlemen,
and keep up the good work.
933
00:52:01,686 --> 00:52:07,189
Finance, of course,
doesn't deal with the dirt
under the nails tangibles,
934
00:52:07,191 --> 00:52:09,792
unless you consider
the money itself to be dirty.
935
00:52:09,794 --> 00:52:10,793
( both laugh )
936
00:52:10,795 --> 00:52:12,628
- So what's on
your agenda today?
- School audit.
937
00:52:12,630 --> 00:52:18,367
- Well, how bad could that be?
- The system is running
a $54 million deficit.
938
00:52:19,804 --> 00:52:23,672
- 54 million?
- Yes, Mr. Mayor.
939
00:52:23,674 --> 00:52:28,210
Jesus Christ.
Did Royce know this?
940
00:52:28,212 --> 00:52:30,546
How the fuck
do we deal with that?
941
00:52:30,548 --> 00:52:33,849
Frankly, I'm not sure
just yet.
942
00:52:37,655 --> 00:52:42,358
Our attendance is excellent
and as to suspensions,
we don't have any.
943
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,361
We intervene immediately
and we show success in
stabilizing behavior.
944
00:52:45,363 --> 00:52:47,830
Not to mention
the world of good
we're doing for the classes
945
00:52:47,832 --> 00:52:49,899
these kids were wrecking
before the program.
946
00:52:49,901 --> 00:52:52,601
In January, we could
expand to four classes,
947
00:52:52,603 --> 00:52:53,802
cover the whole eighth grade.
948
00:52:53,804 --> 00:52:55,871
Any complaints
about the tracking,
anything from the parents?
949
00:52:55,873 --> 00:52:59,441
Not a one. This isn't
a group where we see a lot
of parental intervention.
950
00:52:59,443 --> 00:53:02,945
- What about test scores?
- I can't speak to
the program itself,
951
00:53:02,947 --> 00:53:05,848
but it has to help
the rest of the eighth grade.
952
00:53:05,850 --> 00:53:09,218
Next week will tell.
953
00:53:10,755 --> 00:53:14,823
Right now the system
is under a lot of scrutiny.
954
00:53:14,825 --> 00:53:18,460
We have certain fiscal issues
that are of great concern
955
00:53:18,462 --> 00:53:22,331
to the new administration,
and what you're proposing here
956
00:53:22,333 --> 00:53:25,601
is a radical shift
in curricula.
957
00:53:25,603 --> 00:53:26,368
Meaning?
958
00:53:26,370 --> 00:53:30,306
If City Hall were
to sign off on this,
we could go forward.
959
00:53:30,308 --> 00:53:33,309
But now is not the time
960
00:53:33,311 --> 00:53:36,245
to rock any boats.
961
00:53:40,384 --> 00:53:42,218
( music playing )
962
00:53:46,324 --> 00:53:48,958
Yeah, that's my joint
right there.
963
00:53:50,761 --> 00:53:52,595
What up?
964
00:53:52,964 --> 00:53:56,332
So you all got your work
up to date, right?
965
00:53:56,334 --> 00:53:57,900
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
966
00:53:57,902 --> 00:53:59,635
I heard you took care
of your puppy's problems.
967
00:53:59,637 --> 00:54:03,939
Oh, he most definitely made
that go away, you hear me?
968
00:54:03,941 --> 00:54:05,341
It's all good.
969
00:54:05,343 --> 00:54:07,776
You know, some of
the young'uns been saying
970
00:54:07,778 --> 00:54:11,013
your pup stood tall
with a snitchin' boy.
971
00:54:11,749 --> 00:54:14,917
- Michael?
- Yeah, that's what
they saying.
972
00:54:14,919 --> 00:54:18,921
- Huh.
- Yeah.
973
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,501
( dog barking )
974
00:55:50,348 --> 00:55:53,949
Lester, you really starting
to scare me, man.
975
00:56:29,787 --> 00:56:32,988
- Need a crowbar.
- For what?
976
00:56:32,990 --> 00:56:35,557
This is a tomb.
977
00:56:35,559 --> 00:56:37,826
Lex is in there.
978
00:57:12,129 --> 00:57:14,630
Oh...
979
00:57:14,632 --> 00:57:17,733
fuck me.
980
00:57:20,504 --> 00:57:24,139
( theme music playing )
