On the charges of burglary in the second degree,
and criminal possession
of a controlled substance in the second degree,
how does the defendant, Marcus Williams, plead?
Your Honor, my client pleads not guilty.
Your Honor,
permission to approach?
Permission granted.
Your Honor, I offered the defendant
a very generous plea deal since this is his first offense.
No jail time, and three months
in an out-patient rehabilitation program.
- Sounds pretty good to me. - Yeah.
- So, what gives? - You'd have to ask him.
He insists he's innocent and wants his day in court.
ERIN:But does he realize that if this does goes to trial,
he will mostly likely be found guilty
and will be facing state prison time?
He's entitled to a trial.
But does he understand the risk he's taking?
I mean, we have proof beyond reasonable doubt
that he committed burglary, and he had drugs in the car.
Well, that's for the jury to decide.
Now, if that's all, are we finished here?
I have three other clients being arraigned today.
We are.
Took you long enough.
Apologies for the delay.
- You two report a burglary? - Yeah, I'm Kyle.
This is my wife, Paulina.
Yeah, we came home and saw our door was wide open.
Then we go inside, and so much of our stuff is missing.
Any of the other occupants in the building
that might have seen something?
Just our landlord, who owns the building,
lives upstairs.
- Is she here? - No, conveniently.
She's always home, and then, now, she's missing.
Are you implying that she might have had something
to do with this?
- We're sure of it. - Why is that?
Things were great when we first moved in.
We got along fine. We even had her
for dinner from time to time,
and then, something just changed.
She's harassing us.
She clearly thinks she can get a better deal,
so she's trying to make our lives hell
so that we'll break - the lease and move. - Yeah.
What the hell is this?
Oh, don't act dumb. - We know you did this! - Okay...
I did what?[overlapping chatter]
Hey, hey. - Hey, hey, everybody! - Step back. Step back.
Take it down a notch.
Why don't you two step inside with me?
Oh, my God.
- What happened? - Their apartment was burglarized.
Did you have anything to do with this?
Of course not. I've been out all day running errands.
Well, is it true you've been harassing them
- to move out of the apartment? - Me harassing them?
That's a laugh.
Kyle is unstable.
I asked them to leave
because I don't feel safe with him living here.
Unstable how?
You just saw his temper.
Horrible fights all hours of the night.
[sighs] Have you ever reported any of it?
No way.
I'm afraid of what he might do.
I want them out, but I can't do anything
because of their stupid lease.
Okay. We're going to look into the burglary.
In the meantime, if you're ever feeling unsafe, here's my card.
Thank you so much.

Yeah. Right.

I made the case that they both often work undercover,

- how's Sean holding up? - Okay,
as far as I know. Why?
He didn't tell you, did he?
Tell me what?
He's fine, but he got robbed - on campus last night. - He what?
He was smart and had campus security call it in.
When I got there, he was a little shaken, but no injuries.
He had his backpack stolen, laptop and wallet inside.
Why the hell didn't you call me when you found out?
He told me he wanted to tell you himself.
It never even crossed my mind that he wouldn't tell you.
Well, he didn't tell me.
Hi. You've reached Sean Reagan...
And now I got voice mail.
Your roommate told me I'd find you here.
And the officer said he'd let me tell you.
And yet, you still haven't told me.
I know you're mad, but you don't need to worry.
I had enough money saved up to replace the laptop.
I don't care about the laptop.
You don't? No.
I've told you a million times,
if somebody approaches you asking for your watch

you got robbed? Of course it's a big deal.
And I try to reach you, you don't answer your phone?
I-I'm worried.
I'm fine, okay? And you have nothing to worry about,
but I have an exam later, and I got to get back to studying.
The exam can wait, can't it?
I can call your professor. I'll tell them the situation.
It's not grade school. That doesn't fly.
And she probably wouldn't even bat an eye.
Apparently, stuff like this happens all the time on campus.

No. Who was this guy? What's his name?

Marcus Williams has rejected our plea deal.
You're kidding me.
No. Only an idiot would turn that down.
Yeah, and his attorney just seemed slammed.
I'm not even sure he explained to his client
how screwed he's gonna be if this goes to trial.
Good. Then he will lose and do time like he should.
Yeah, but he shouldn't have to.
Him and his friend burglarized a store.
He was pulled over with the stolen goods
and drugs in his car.
Yeah, but his friend, David Rogers, is a career criminal.
Marcus is a first-time offender.
I'm just trying to help him. You tried,
he turned it down, serves him right.
Yeah, but he could serve real time for this.
All because his attorney isn't giving him good advice.
It's wrong.
What he did was wrong.
I don't know, something just doesn't feel right about it.
Could you just look into his legal aid attorney,
um, a Bryce Turken?
Wait a minute.
Bryce Turken?
Did you know that he's also representing David Rogers?
No.
Now, that changes things.
Maybe it's more than just being overworked.
Landlord is lying about her alibi.
What'd you find out?
Florist across the street said he saw Tina come and go
in the early afternoon.
Well, just because she went back home
doesn't mean she burglarized Kyle and Paulina's apartment.
This proves if she lied to us.
She wasn't gone all day like she said.
She's clearly hiding something.
My gut's telling me Tina didn't do this.
You're really siding with the landlord on this?
Her fear felt real.
Ah, I got a different vibe.
Single, living alone in her 40s?
She's probably just jealous of the happy couple
living right under her nose. Sounds like
you're jumping to conclusions because she's single.
How do we know the florist isn't confusing her with someone else?
Oh, he's the neighborhood Gladys Kravitz.
He knew all about them.
Tina's kind of cold, Paulina's very friendly
and Kyle comes in regularly for hydrangeas.
Okay. Then let's go back to Tina and talk to her
and see if she can explain why she lied to us.
[pen clatters]
Excuse me. Detective Reagan.
Are you the one who responded to
the robbery on campus last night?
Yeah, Tom Tofalli, head of campus security.
I talked to an officer last night.
Yeah, I'm just curious to see if it was an isolated incident.
Well, it's New York City, the city's our campus.
Of course there have been other robberies.
You notice any patterns or similarities between 'em?
Other than just bad luck? I don't think so.
Just a coincidence.
Okay. And you reported them all to the NYPD?
Are you kidding me? Of course not.
Most of these kids would flip out
if we brought NYPD in here with guns
every time somebody lost a backpack.
But you did report it last night.
Ah, the kid insisted. He wanted a police report.
Well, the kid was trained well. He's my son.
Well, my kid would have done the same.
Were you on the job?
30 years, White Plains.
I got antsy in my retirement. I took this gig thinking
it would be a walk in the park.
Turned out to be the opposite?
All these buildings smell like weed,
and I spend my nights chasing kids out of the park
for blaring music at 3:00 a.m.
Yeah, I can imagine they don't have a lot of respect
for security around here.
Except your boy. He was gracious.
I'm glad he's okay.
Same. Uh, do you mind if I take a look
at the incident reports?
Just see if there's anything else to be concerned about?
Yeah, sure. You probably got
bigger fish to fry, but there you go.
Thank you.
Thank you for meeting with me, Marcus.
You better have good news.
[sighs heavily]
Has your attorney explained to you
the generous plea deal that my office has offered you?
- Of course I did. - I'm speaking with Marcus.
Yeah, he told me about it.
But he said I'd have to plead guilty, which I'm not.
Then how do you explain all the stolen goods
and the two ounces of cocaine that were found in your car?
I had no idea there were drugs in my car.
But you admit to participating in the burglary?
Don't answer that.
Yo, I need to be released.
I got a daughter who needs me.
Then think about your daughter and accept a plea deal.
Avoid jail time.
If I say I'm guilty,
I'll have a felony on my record forever.
How would that help my daughter?
If this goes to trial, you will most likely
be found guilty.
I'm not admitting to something I didn't do.
Those weren't my drugs.
Are you saying those drugs belonged to David Rogers?
What my client is saying is that he doesn't know
how the drugs got in his car.
Did they just magically appear?
I'm willing to drop the drug charges
if you tell me who put those drugs in your car.
We won't be doing that. Why?
To help Marcus or your other client?
If I were you, I would find myself
a new lawyer.

Zip it.
You being what, a hothead?
Or him being an Eagle Scout?
No, I don't want to make it about that.
That would be like talking to children,
and I am talking to men.
At least I hope so.
[sighs] We are New York City cops.
We break up street fights, we don't start 'em.
And I am sorry for that.
Yeah, I'll bet you are,
considering where it landed you.
Stupid thing. It got out of hand.
Yeah, and the sun was in my eyes,
and the dog ate my homework.
My inner circle thinks that I should treat you
the way I would any two cops.
And I think that's good advice.
And any two cops, I would give them a choice.
I will take your detective shield
and your sergeant stripes.
But this could take some time,
and, uh, modified duties mean
two less cops focused on the street.
And we are already bleeding manpower as it is.
You said a choice?
Hey, look at you, following along.
So your other choice is a command discipline,
where you're both back in the bag,
driving nights in the scuzziest precinct
on the Compstat board.
Riding together?
Hey, you, too, sharp as a tack.
For how long?
I really couldn't say. I don't know.
I guess as long as it takes.
Long as what takes?
Can't say that, either.
Okay. Okay.
Dismissed.

I already told you I was gone all day.
I took a yoga class, ran some errands.
I-I don't know what else to tell you.
I've got some receipts...
You know the florist across the street?
Arjun?
Mm-hmm.[Tina laughs]
What'd that little gossip queen tell you?
He said you came back.
All right, I know how this looks,
but I swear I did not rob them.
So you admit that you lied to us?
I knew it would make me look guilty
if you knew I was here alone.
Not as guilty as you look lying to us.
I'm sorry, it was stupid.
But I was only here for, like, 30 minutes,
and I didn't see anything strange.
These are really beautiful flowers.
Hydrangeas. My favorite.
Did you buy 'em from Arjun across the street?
Kyle bought them, didn't he?
He did.
Why is your tenant you hate, who hates you,
buying you flowers?
Guess he wanted to smooth things over. I don't know.
Hey...
...why don't you stop lying to us?
Oh, my God.
It wasn't an affair, if that's what you're thinking.
It was just a... it was just a thing.
A thing? It was j--
It was just sex.
I know it was wrong, but it was fun.
Until I could sense him developing feelings,
so then I just cut it off.
How'd Kyle take that?
Sent him over the edge.
He asked me to meet with him while Paulina was at work,
and I told him it's over.
And he didn't like that.
He told me he was in love with me.
So I told him I would tell Paulina everything
if they didn't vacate the apartment.
So why don't you just say it?
Say what?
Whatever it is that you want to say.
Can't a guy just have dinner with his son
without having an ulterior motive?
[snorts]
Okay, fine. I got the incident report
from campus security on the robberies.
Didn't I ask you to stay out of this?
It's a good thing I didn't.
All the robberies are connected.
Why can't you just let this go?
I'm not gonna let it go.
There were five robberies in a couple of weeks.
All around the same area, all around the same time.
Why are you downplaying this?
Because it's embarrassing.
Why?[sighs]
I come from a family of cops,
and I can't even protect myself from some jerk in the park?
Don't let him get you down on yourself.
It's not him, it's you.
It's me?
I just can't stop thinking about
what you would have done in that situation.
Hopefully, I would have done exactly what you did,
and came out of it unharmed.
[sighs] Okay, look, I get it.
I understand the pressure that you are growing up with.
But you lived up to it.
You can live up to it, too.
Help me out here.
I got a plan to catch this guy,
but I need you to pull it off.
What's your plan?
The plan is we're gonna set up a sting in the park
tomorrow night.
Why not tonight?
I can't. I don't have approval,
I don't have the manpower, and most important,
I don't have you on board yet.
What's my part in all of this?
Your part is you're gonna stand by in the squad room.
We nail the perp, we bring him in,
you pick him out out of a lineup.
[sighs]
- Look at this. - What's that?
It's the text conversation where David asks
to use Marcus' car.
There's no mention of drugs, just the burglary.
And David has prior drug offenses on his record.
I mean, is this enough?
It's enough for me to bring to the D.A.
to discuss dropping the drug charges
against Marcus, yeah.
That's great.
Oh, no. I know that look.
Well, I'm just pissed.
This is way too easy to spot,
and his attorney's not doing his job.
We need to figure out why.
Sorry to barge in.
You didn't barge in. My detail rings ahead.
Oh, of course they do.
Um... hi.
Want a slice?
Uh, no thanks.
Beer?
No, thank you.
It was, uh...
six years ago...
Jamie brought me to dinner at the table
and announced that we were engaged.
Your reactions were
a dead heat between happy for us
and concerned about us...
continuing as partners on the job.
It wasn't a dead heat.
From where I sat?
Happy, but by a nose.
Okay, okay.
Happy first, concerned second, fine.
Even though we fell in love on the job and we knew
everything about each other. We were able to predict
each other's reactions on the street.
We were just talking about that.
About our engagement?
No.[Henry chuckles]
About me putting Jamie and Joe
riding together.
That's where this is going, right?
Well, okay.
How is that a good idea?
I mean, they already don't really like each other.
Eddie...
I don't think that's it.
I know that's it.
Why, because Jamie complains about him, rags on him?
Jamie is not exactly a man of mystery.
He says what he means, - he means what he says. - Yes.
But Jamie has been charged with respecting Joe.
And Joe, respecting Jamie.
But their bond wasn't formed
in regular family ways.
It was forged by a death in the family.
Joe's...
and Jamie's.
They're related by blood,
but also...
by an awful burden.
And that,
to those two...
really chafes.
Well, I'm just...
...worried, is all.
Well, I could just bust them down.
Make a big example.
My son, my grandson.
That's a big headline.
Look what he did to his own.
Eh, but you're part of the family.
You have a vote.
Yeah, some choice.
FRANK: Hey.[taps on table]
They chose the ride-along.
It was a choice on paper, anyway.
But what if what you worried about with me and Jamie--
clouded judgement, confused reactions--
what if that happens with Joe on the street?
Eddie, I've got 35,000 cops.
I start thinking of...
any given two of them like that,
I don't even get out of bed in the morning.
They're not just any given two.
They have to be.

The only problem is, it's doing your dirty work.
Come on, you're not gonna believe some felon over me.
I'm a cop, remember?
You're also an idiot.
And you picked the wrong kid to screw with.
Turn around. You're under arrest.
Come on.
[handcuffs click]
Did you know about the affair?
I had no idea. I'm shocked.
We're so sorry you had to hear it from us.
All due respect,
is that why you called me here?
I don't see how this is any of your business.
Kyle tried to frame Tina
after she broke it off with him,
and then, we found all your belongings
stashed away in a storage unit.
BADILLO: He was adamant
that he didn't do it, but...
we arrested him.
What do you mean?
Y-You can't arrest him for stealing his own stuff.
JANKO: No, but we can
for lying to the cops
and filing a false police report.
Really? You're gonna arrest him for a misdemeanor?
All he's gonna get is a desk appearance ticket.
How do you know all this?
This isn't what was supposed to happen.
He is innocent.
Okay, then, why don't you tell us what was supposed to happen?
I learned about the affair
and I wanted to get back at Tina, so I framed her.
- She destroyed my marriage. - Mm, your husband
ruined your marriage.
But don't worry, we didn't arrest him.
You didn't?
No.
We're arresting you.
- What? - Sure, you'll be released on a desk appearance ticket,
- but you did commit a crime. - Turn around.
Let's go.
What is it?
Marcus Williams got shot
outside his apartment last night.
By who?
They're not sure yet.
But if I had to guess, word got out
that he blamed the drugs on David.
[sighs]
[papers thud]
All right, I want to see him.
He didn't make it.
You're saying he would've been safer
if he'd just stayed in prison?
Look, you did the right thing.
He deserved to be released.
But if I had stayed out of it, he would still be alive.
It... Well, you couldn't let him serve time
for something that he didn't do.
His attorney
has blood on his hands, not you.
I was just trying to help him.
I mean, was there something that we missed?
Like, was there something more that I could've done?
You did everything you could.
And I know
it's hard for you to see right now, but...
you got to keep doing exactly what you did here.
JOE: Does he always make you wait this long?
Yeah, we're on his time.
She nice, your mom?
Your grandma? Oh, yeah.
What was she like?
She always put us first.
Made sure you knew you were loved
even when she was mad at you.
Also, she could've run the United Nations.
How so?
She raised four kids
while serving as our ambassador to our father.
No salutes, sorry for the wait.
Have a seat.
[sighs]
So...
I thought maybe putting you two together
as ride-along partners might be a good idea.
I mean, I made lifelong pals with guys
I was in detention with at school when I was a kid.
[drums on desk]
[sighs]
But I got to say...
...I haven't had a decent night's sleep since.
Sorry about that.
The reports concur.
The night of, you were off duty,
neither of you drew your weapons
and no one was really hurt.
The only real damage was to your own reputations.
Understood.
So...
...the penalty for both of you...
...is time served.
Return to your commands.
Now would be a good time.
[scoffs]
We can get along.
Yeah, you won't have any trouble from us.
I'll take your word.
[door opens]
[door closes][sighs]
JANKO: What did you do when he pulled the knife?
Apparently, the wrong thing.
Yeah, you should've ran.
I didn't think he was gonna use it.
They always use it.
DANNY: That's right.
I don't know, man. I'm impressed.
Sounds pretty badass.
ERIN: Can you just stick
with being a student, please?
Believe me, I would be happy to.
So, no future in law enforcement?
Uh, no, I've had my fun, but not for now.
I'll leave it to the professionals around this table.
DANNY:Yeah.
Besides, he got what he wanted out of it, anyway.
Which is what?
A date.
[gasping, oohing] A date?
Ooh.
Oh. SEAN: You just had
to bring that up, didn't you?
Yes, I did.
Come on, spill it.
Uh, the girl who was getting robbed asked me out.
You mean, the one that saved you?
She thinks I saved her.
Aww.
When's the date?
Tonight.
So, where are we going?
Uh, you all are staying here.
[laughter] I'm going bowling.
Oh. JANKO: Ooh.
Bowling?
Yeah, it's having a moment.
You want some pointers?
I know how to talk to women, thank you.
I was talking about the bowling.
Sean, she is a ringer.
You two went bowling?
Oh, yeah. Just once, and... she kicked my butt.
Well, your dad taught me well.
FRANK: Well,
hopefully, Sean, you not only inherited
the Reagan brave heart but our chops for bowling.
So, will you call us later and tell us everything?
[laughter] Absolutely not.
[laughs]
