Burn Notice (2007–2013): Season 6, Episode 12 - Means & Ends - full transcript

Michael:
MY NAME IS MICHAEL WESTEN.

I USED TO BE A SPY UNTIL...

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]

MAN: We got a burn notice
on you. You're blacklisted.

[ WHISTLES ]

WHEN YOU'RE BURNED,
YOU'VE GOT NOTHING --

NO CASH, NO CREDIT,
NO JOB HISTORY.

YOU'RE STUCK IN WHATEVER CITY
THEY DECIDE TO DUMP YOU IN.

WHERE AM I?
MIAMI.

YOU DO WHATEVER WORK
COMES YOUR WAY.

YOU RELY ON ANYONE
WHO'S STILL TALKING TO YOU.



[ LAUGHS ]

A TRIGGER-HAPPY GIRLFRIEND...

SHOULD WE SHOOT THEM?

...AN OLD FRIEND WHO USED
TO INFORM ON YOU TO THE FBI...

YOU KNOW SPIES --
A BUNCH OF BITCHY LITTLE GIRLS.

...FAMILY, TOO...
HEY, IS THAT YOUR MOM AGAIN?

...IF YOU'RE DESPERATE....
SOMEONE NEEDS YOUR HELP,
MICHAEL.

...AND A DOWN-AND-OUT SPY
YOU MET ALONG THE WAY.

THAT'S HOW WE DO IT,
PEOPLE.

BOTTOM LINE --
AS LONG AS YOU'RE BURNED,

YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

AYN, I NEED SOMETHING.

I NEED TO DISAPPEAR.

I MIGHT BE ABLE



TO ARRANGE FOR YOU TO HAVE
A LITTLE PRIVACY.

IF YOU HIDE ME,

I THINK IT'S ONLY FAIR
THAT YOU BE THE ONE TO FIND ME.

THAT KIND OF COOPERATION COULD
KNOCK YEARS OFF MY SENTENCE.

SAY HELLO TO TYLER GRAY, THE MAN
WHO MURDERED YOUR BROTHER, NATE.

Michael: GRAY!

[ GRUNTS ]

DON'T MOVE.

I GOT HIM.

NOW WE JUST WAIT
FOR CARD'S EXTRACTION TEAM.

CARD ISN'T SENDING YOU
AN EXTRACTION TEAM.

HOW DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT CARD?

WHO DO YOU THINK
SENT ME OUT HERE?

THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
A SUICIDE MISSION FOR YOU.

HE PLAYED BOTH OF US.

Card: WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE TARGETS?

I HAVE PEOPLE LOOKING --
THEY CAN'T FIND A TRACE.

WHAT, YOU THINK I FORGOT
EVERYTHING YOU TAUGHT ME?

I'm saying
Michael Westen is dead.

I'M PROUD OF YOU, KID.

DO YOU EVER WONDER
WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE --

ACTUALLY GETTING TO ENJOY
AN AFTERNOON LIKE THIS?

I'M SORRY. WHO ARE YOU?

I CAME HERE WITH MY BOYFRIEND,
MICHAEL WESTEN.

I NEED A REST AS MUCH
AS YOU DO, FI -- BELIEVE ME.

I'M GLAD
TO HEAR YOU SAY THAT.

YOU'VE BEEN GETTING ABOUT AS
MUCH SLEEP AS A P.O.W. LATELY.

ADMITTING THERE'S A PROBLEM
IS THE FIRST STEP.

AFTER WE TAKE CARD DOWN,
WHAT DO YOU SAY WE GO --

[ RUSTLING ]

HEY. WHOA. WHOA. WHOA.
IT'S JUST ME.

IT'S TRUE.
HE CAME ALONE.

WHAT?
YOU BROUGHT A LOOKOUT?

MORE LIKE BACKUP.

IT'S ALMOST LIKE
YOU GUYS DON'T TRUST ME.

WE WERE SUPPOSED TO
LAY LOW.

WHY DID YOU WANT TO MEET?

CARD REACHED OUT TO ME.
HE'S GETTING COMFORTABLE.

I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY,
NOBODY FOUND YOUR BODIES.

HE'S STARTING TO THINK
THAT THE F-18 INCINERATED YOU.

SO, HE WANTS ME TO DO THE SAME
TO YOUR LOFT.

HE TOLD ME
TO SEARCH YOUR PLACE

FOR ANYTHING CONNECTED
TO THIS MESS AND THEN BURN IT.

YOU'VE GOT TO BE
KIDDING ME.

MICHAEL,
YOU CAN'T EXPECT ME TO PLAY DEAD

WHILE THIS BASTARD
TURNS EVERYTHING WE OWN

INTO A PILE OF ASH.

FI,
THIS IS A HUGE BREAK.

WE GET TO FEED CARD WHATEVER
INFORMATION WE WANT HIM TO HAVE.

DO YOU WANT TO HOLD ON
TO ALL OF OUR OLD STUFF,

OR DO YOU WANT TO
NAIL CARD TO THE WALL?

FINE.

BUT I'M NOT LETTING HIM
RANSACK AND TORCH OUR HOME.

WE'LL DO IT TOGETHER.

PLANTING FALSE INFORMATION
FOR AN ENEMY TO FIND

IS A SUBTLE ART.

THERE HAS TO BE
ENOUGH SOLID INFORMATION

TO MAKE IT SEEM CREDIBLE,

BUT NOT SO MUCH
IT CAN BE VERIFIED.

DO IT RIGHT, AND YOU CAN MAKE
YOUR TARGET SO PARANOID,

THEY'LL BE READY TO CRACK.

ALL RIGHT.

THIS SHOULD LOOK LIKE
WE'RE JUST A FEW STEPS AWAY

FROM CONNECTING
ANSON TO CARD.

LOOKS LEGIT.
YOU THINK THERE'S ENOUGH HERE?

BELIEVE ME -- QUESTIONS ARE
SCARIER THAN ANSWERS.

YOU HELP HIM CONNECT THE DOTS,
SHOW HIM HOW WORRIED YOU ARE,

YOU CAN PUSH
FOR MORE INTEL.

HOW MANY MANY OF THESE
DO I GET TO TAKE?

OH, I DON'T KNOW, FI.
TWO OR THREE?

IT HAS TO LOOK LIKE
ALL OF OUR STUFF HAS BURNED,

SO...ALL OF OUR STUFF
HAS TO BURN.

[ SIGHS ]

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?

I THOUGHT NOBODY KNEW
YOU WERE BACK.
NOBODY DOES.

BUT MOST PEOPLE
DON'T KNOW WE'RE DEAD, EITHER.

AND A GOOD EVENING TO YOU,
TOO.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
YOU KNOW HER?

I'M AYN. WE GO BACK.

ALL THE WAY BACK
TO ALLAROD FEDERAL PENITENTIARY.

I JUST GOT OUT.

CRIMINAL,
I GOT A SERIOUS PROBLEM.

YOU AND I NEED TO TALK.

IT'S MICHAEL, RIGHT?

I HEARD A BIT ABOUT YOU
FROM THIS ONE.

LOOKS LIKE
SHE WASN'T LYING.

WHO IS THIS PERSON?

HOW -- HOW DID YOU KNOW
WE WERE HERE?

I PAID SOME NEIGHBORHOOD KIDS
TO CALL IF ANYBODY SHOWED UP.

LITTLE HOPPERS
DESERVE A BONUS.

Y'ALL DIDN'T EVEN
TURN ON THE LIGHTS.

OH.

I GUESS I CAN SEE WHY.
NO, NO, NO.

WE'RE NOT ARSONISTS.
IT'S, UH --
NOT MY BUSINESS.
NOT WHY I'M HERE.

WHY A YOU HERE?
WELL, YOU KNOW,

GIRLFRIEND HERE
HELPED SPRING ME.

BUT SO FAR, BEING OUT
ISN'T MUCH BETTER THAN PRISON.

I GOT A COP AFTER ME --
A DIRTY DETECTIVE NAMED GARZA.

WELL,
THAT DIDN'T TAKE LONG.

HEY. I'VE BEEN KEEPING
MY NOSE CLEAN.

THIS IS OLD BUSINESS.

GARZA'S BEEN HAUNTING ME
SINCE I GOT HOME.

YESTERDAY HE CAUGHT UP TO ME
ON THE STREET,

TOLD ME POINT BLANK,

"YOU'RE GONNA WISH
YOU STAYED IN."

WHAT DO YOU THINK
HE'S GONNA DO?

I DON'T KNOW.
BUT I KNOW I NEED HELP.

IT'S JUST THAT RIGHT NOW'S
NOT A GOOD TIME.

BUT WE'RE GONNA HELP YOU
ANYWAY.

HERE'S MY NUMBER.

[ SIGHS ]

FI, CAN I TALK TO YOU
FOR A MINUTE?

NOW IS NOT A GOOD TIME.

YOU CALL ME FIRST THING.

WE'LL GO OVER THE DETAILS,
AND WE'LL GET TO WORK, OKAY?

THANKS.

I'LL LET YOU GET BACK TO...
WHATEVER THIS IS.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

WHAT WAS THAT?

WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE
PLAYING DEAD.

WELL, I WOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD
IF IT WEREN'T FOR AYN.

SHE SAVED MY LIFE
IN PRISON.

I KNOW THE TIMING
ISN'T GREAT,

BUT HER PROBLEM
ISN'T GONNA WAIT

TILL IT'S CONVENIENT FOR US.

WE CAN'T GO UP AGAINST A COP
RIGHT NOW. WE JUST CAN'T.

FINE.

WELL, IF THAT'S THE WAY
YOU FEEL, I'LL DO IT MYSELF.

WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU LOOKING AT?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE
BURNING DOWN MY HOUSE.

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]

[ CELLPHONE BEEPS ]

TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH,
BUCKO.

IT'S NOT DONE YET.

Then why are you interrupting
my "me" time?

I FOUND SOMETHING.

IT LOOKS LIKE WESTEN
WAS PUTTING SOMETHING TOGETHER.

WHAT? THE --

YOU KNOW WHAT? NEVER MIND.
THIS ISN'T THE TIME.

YOU JUST GO AHEAD

AND GRAB WHATEVER'S GOT
YOUR PANTIES IN A BUNCH.

LIGHT A MATCH.

You can brief me tomorrow.

[ CELLPHONE BEEPS ]

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
CARD'S SPOOKED.

TIME TO LIGHT THIS PLACE UP.

[ SIGHS ]

WE CAN TAKE IT FROM HERE.

WHY DON'T YOU
GIVE US A MINUTE?

ARE YOU OKAY?
YOU OKAY?

[ SIGHS ]

IT'S THE ONLY HOME
WE'VE SHARED.

IT WON'T BE THE LAST.

[ BREATHES DEEPLY ]

[ SIGHS ]

[ DEVICE BEEPS ]

THANKS FOR WAITING UP.

I'M SORRY
WE HAVE TO MEET LIKE THIS.

THIS STORY
THAT WE'VE ALL BEEN KILLED --

YOU WON'T HAVE TO PRETEND
MUCH LONGER.

YOU SMELL LIKE A BARBECUE.

YEAH, WE HAD TO...
BURN THE LOFT.

"HAD TO."

LIKE YOU "HAD TO" WORK WITH
THE MAN WHO KILLED YOUR BROTHER?

DID YOU THINK
I WAS STUPID?

YOU GO TO PANAMA
TO CATCH TYLER GRAY.

IT OCCURRED TO ME
THIS MORNING...

I HAVEN'T HEARD
HIS NAME SINCE.

I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T WANT TO --

I KNOW DAMN WELL WHY
YOU DIDN'T WANT TO TELL ME.

TOM CARD IS THE REASON
NATE'S DEAD.

TYLER GRAY IS --
HE'S JUST A GUN.

YEAH, WELL,
I WANT TO TALK TO THE "GUN."

MOM, HE WON'T BE ABLE TO
GIVE YOU THE ANSWERS YOU NEED.

WELL, MAYBE NOT.

BUT I LOST MY SON,
AND I GET TO ASK THE QUESTIONS.

SET IT UP.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

WELL, YOUR PAL'S GOT
A NICE PLACE HERE.

I'M STARTING TO THINK MIKE HAD
THE RIGHT IDEA OPTING OUT.

[ SIGHS ]

HE OPTED OUT
BECAUSE HE'S BEING AN ASS.

YOU KNOW HOW MANY JOBS
I'VE HELPED HIM WITH?

OKAY, BUT HOW MANY
OF THOSE JOBS HAPPENED

WHILE YOU WERE
SUPPOSED TO BE PLAYING DEAD?

I MEAN, HELL,
THE ONLY REASON I'M HERE

IS TO KEEP YOU FROM
BLOWING UP A POLICE STATION
AND BLOWING OUR COVER.

THE POINT IS, YOU'RE HERE.

YEAH, WELL,
I WISH I WASN'T.

I'M NOT TOO THRILLED
ABOUT GOING TO BAT

FOR SOMEBODY
WHO JUST GOT OUT OF JAIL.

HI. ARE YOU THE PEOPLE
WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO HELP MY MOM?

YEAH, WE ARE.

RIGHT, SAM?

[ CHUCKLES ]

HEY.
[ CHUCKLES ]

WHEN I WENT IN, AMARI DIDN'T
KNOW HOW TO ASK FOR BREAKFAST.

NOW HE MAKES ME EGGS
EVERY MORNING.

I'VE ALREADY MISSED
TOO MUCH OF THAT BOY'S LIFE.

TELL US ABOUT THIS COP
THAT'S COMING AFTER YOU.

WHAT'S HIS PROBLEM?

THE MAN I WENT TO PRISON
FOR KILLING.

MY BROTHER-IN-LAW, MARCUS.

HE WAS
DETECTIVE GARZA'S C.I.

AND SHE'S THE GOOD GUY
IN THIS SCENARIO?

HEY, I THOUGHT YOU SAID
THIS GUY WAS COOL.

NO, ACTUALLY,
I'M N THAT COOL --

NOT WHEN IT COMES
TO KILLING POLICE INFORMANTS.

HOW ABOUT WIFE-BEATERS?

THE SON OF A BITCH
NEARLY KILLED MY SISTER,

AND GARZA LET HIM DO IT.

I GUESS YOU DID
WHAT YOU HAD TO DO.

WHY WAS GARZA
PROTECTING HIM?

MARCUS WAS FEEDING HIM DIRT
ON THE GARDEN TERRACE MAFIA.

GARZA HATES THAT CREW.

THEY KILLED HIS PARTNER,

AND HE'S BEEN OUT FOR REVENGE
EVER SINCE.

MOM!
THERE'S POLICEMEN OUTSIDE!

THAT'S GARZA.

AND HE BROUGHT MY P.O.
THIS IS GONNA BE BAD.

HE'S GONNA
VIOLATE MY PAROLE.

IS THERE SOME OTHER WAY
OUT OF HERE, LIKE A BACK WINDOW?

THEY'VE ALL GOT BARS
ON THEM.

WELL, THEN, WE'RE JUST
GONNA HAVE TO BUST OUT.

GOT A LAUNDRY ROOM?
END OF THE HALL.

OKAY.
WE'LL GO OUT THAT WAY.

I CAN'T GO WITH YOU.
AYN --

IF I RUN FROM MY P.O.,
I REALLY AM GUILTY.

THERE'LL BE NO WAY
TO GET ME OUT.

AMARI WILL GO
BACK INTO FOSTER CARE.

I CAN'T WATCH THAT
HAPPEN AGAIN.

PLEASE, TAKE HIM WITH YOU.

WE NEED TO MOVE IT.
THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY UP.

FI, GIVE ME A HAND HERE.

MOST
LATE-MODEL WASHING MACHINES

SPIN AT SPEEDS
OF OVER 1,200 RPMs

AND CREATE
MORE THAN 100 G's OF FORCE.

THAT'S MORE THAN ENOUGH
TO RIP OFF YOUR FINGER...

OR PULL A CURTAIN ROD THROUGH
A COUPLE LAYERS OF DRYWALL.

[ WASHING MACHINE WHIRS ]

[ BANGING ON DOOR ]

HOLD ON!
I'M GETTING DRESSED!

Garza: OPEN UP, REEDS! COME ON!
I GOT YOUR P.O. OVER HERE!

DENY US ENTRY,

I'M GONNA THROW YOUR SORRY ASS
BACK IN JAIL. YOU HEAR ME?

[ BANGING ON DOOR ]

JESUS.
WHAT ARE YOU, DEAF, WOMAN?

GOT A TIP YOU WERE SCORING DRUGS
DOWN THE BLOCK.

GO ON.
SEARCH IT.

IS YOUR BOY HERE?

Ayn: YOU LEAVE MY BOY
OUT OF THIS.

I'VE NEVER DONE DRUGS
IN MY LIFE.

YOU GOT NO RIGHT
COMING IN HERE.

[ CHUCKLES ]

BACK HER UP.
BACK THIS GIRL UP.

CALM DOWN, MA'AM.
YOU NEED TO CALM DOWN.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
LOOK AT THIS.

SURPRISE, SURPRISE.

LOOKS LIKE YOU'LL BE FINISHING
YOUR SENTENCE AFTER ALL.

THAT'S NOT MINE!

YES, IT IS.

YOU KILL A MAN, YOU DO THE TIME
AND PAY THE PRICE.

HE PLANTED THAT!

SHUT YOUR MOUTH.

OKAY, AMARI. HERE WE GO.
JUST A LITTLE TRIP.

EASY-PEASY.

[ GRUNTS ]

OKAY, YEAH, YEAH.
DON'T -- DON'T GET THE NECK.

THERE WE GO.

Garza: NOW, GO ON.
KEEP SEARCHING.

THE KID'S GOT TO BE HERE
SOMEWHERE.

HANG ON, ALL RIGHT?
HERE WE GO.

[ GRUNTS ]

Officer:
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?

DON'T KNOW.
KID'S NOT HERE.

LET HIM BE.
HE'S AT HIS GRANDMA'S HOUSE.

DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO,
KILLER. NOW, LET'S GO.

I'M GONNA TAKE YOU
BACK WHERE YOU BELONG.

Sam:
THERE YOU GO. FREE CANDY.

FOR REAL?
YEP.

I'M FRIENDS WITH THE LADY
WHO OWNS THIS PLACE,

SO YOU CAN HAVE
WHATEVER YOU WANT.

NOW, LOOK, UH...I KNOW YOU'RE
WORRIED ABOUT YOUR MOM.

BUT WE'RE GONNA GET HER OUT,
OKAY?

I PROMISE YOU.

IF YOU NEED THIS GUY TO COP TO
PLANTING DRUGS ON YOUR FRIEND,

BLACKMAIL
IS THE EASIEST WAY TO GO.

YOU KNOW
WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO?

I WOULD LIKE TO MARCH
INTO THE NEAREST POLICE STATION

AND TELL THEM
THAT HE'S DIRTY.

BUT I CAN'T
BECAUSE I AM TRAPPED

IN THE WORLD'S NICEST
SAFE HOUSE.

FI, WHAT YOU NEED
IS PROOF HE'S DIRTY.

GARZA'S NEVER BEEN ABLE
TO FIND ANOTHER C.I.

TO TAKE DOWN THE CREW
THAT KILLED HIS PARTNER.

LET'S GIVE HIM ONE.

WELL,
A NEW FRIEND LIKE THAT

COULD TALK HIM
INTO DOING SOME DIRT.

MAYBE STEAL SOME EVIDENCE
FROM POLICE IMPOUND --

THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH.

BUT, OF COURSE,
THE QUESTION IS,

WHO COULD PASS
FOR A...GANG MEMBER?

WHAT?

Michael:
I HATE TO ASK.

WOW.

SERIOUSLY? GUYS?

NOW IS GOOD TIME
TO GO AFTER A COP

ON BEHALF
OF A CONVICTED MURDERER?

NO, THANK YOU.

GARZA DOESN'T DESERVE
TO CALL HIMSELF A COP.

AND YOU'RE WRONG ABOUT AYN.

SHE'S A GOOD PERSON.

SHE KILLED A GUY, FI.

SO, AS A PERSON,
I'D GIVE HER, LIKE, A "C."

C-PLUS TOPS.

JESSE, IF YOU DON'T HELP,

THAT KID IS GONNA GROW UP
WITHOUT A MOTHER.

[ SIGHS ]

YOU KNOW SOMETHING
ABOUT THAT.

JUST GIVE ME
THE DAMN PHONE.

LET ME CALL THIS BASTARD
BEFORE I CHANGE MY MIND.

WHEN POSING
AS A HARD-CORE CRIMINAL,

THE KEY IS TO COME ON STRONG.

YOU SIT IN THE POWER POSITION
IN THE ROOM

AND TAKE UP AS MUCH SPACE
AS POSSIBLE.

DETECTIVE. YO.

WHAT'S GOING ON, BABY?

AND YOU NEVER, EVER SHOW
ANY RESPECT FOR THE POLICE.

I'M YOUR DATE,
PLAYBOY.

LUCKY YOU, RIGHT?
SHH! SHH-SHH-SHH.

YOU WANT TO GET DOWN
ON SOME FOOD?

LISTEN,
THANKS FOR MAKING THE DRIVE,

BUT YOU GOT TO KEEP YOUR
GODDAMN VOICE DOWN, ALL RIGHT?

MY BAD.

Waitress:
HERE YOU GO, DETECTIVE.

HOW YOU DOING?

JACE ROBINSON'S GONNA SOLVE
ALL MY PROBLEMS

WITH THE G.T. MAFIA, HUH?

DON'T BE COMING UP IN HERE
USING MY REAL NAME, MAN.

I TOLD YOU ON THE PHONE --
YOU CALL ME J-TRAIN.

[ LAUGHS ]

I THINK I WOULD REMEMBER
AN A.K.A. THAT STUPID.

WE GOT NO RECORD OF YOU.

SO,
WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?

LOOK, I AIN'T GONNA BE
ALL UP IN YOUR SYSTEM, MAN.

I'M NEW BLOOD.
I'M FROM QUEENS.

I WASN'T GETTING MY DUE
UP IN THE APPLE.

I CAME DOWN HERE LAST YEAR.

KA-BLOOEY.
I'M BLOWING UP.

YOU'RE "BLOWING UP," HUH?
THAT'S RIGHT.

AND YOU THOUGHT
YOUR NEXT LOGICAL STEP

IS TO BECOME A SNITCH?

OKAY, "A,"
LET'S NOT USE THAT WORD.

THAT'S AN UGLY WORD.

"B,"
I WANT TO BE YOUR C.I.

BECAUSE THE ONLY THING
BETWEEN ME AND THE TOP

IS THE BOSS.

I CAN HELP YOU
TAKE HIM OUT.

YOU'RE GONNA HELP ME
TAKE DOWN SHERROD WASHINGTON,

THE MAN THAT KILLED
MY PARTNER?

I THINK YOU'RE PLAYING AN ANGLE,
AND I DON'T LIKE IT.
OF COURSE
I'M PLAYING AN ANGLE.

WHAT THE HELL
YOU THINK I'M DOING?

LOOK, SHERROD AND HIS BOYS
GO DOWN,

THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL
A REGIME CHANGE, SON.

HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.

AND GUESS WHO'S GOT NEXT.
OOH. OOH.

YOU DO THIS, DETECTIVE, YOU GET
A NICE, LITTLE, SHINY MEDAL,

YOU GET PEACE IN THE TERRACE,
AND YOU GET A PARTNER.

HOW CLOSE TO SHERROD
ARE YOU?

WHAT I SAY?
WE TIGHT, MAN.

OKAY.

LET'S GO FIND OUT
HOW TIGHT YOU ARE, HUH?

YEAH, LET'S DO THAT.

YOU WANT TO WORK TOGETHER,

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO
SHOW ME SOMETHING, J-TRAIN.

SHERROD'S BAR
RIGHT BEHIND ME.

YOU NEED TO GET INSIDE
AND GO TO HIS PRIVATE OFFICE

AND TAKE A PICTURE OF IT
WITH YOUR PHONE.

OKAY.

NOW.

NO PROBLEM, MAN.
I'LL BE BACK.

FI: Hey, Jesse.
How's it going?

UH, THAT DEPENDS.

HOW FAST CAN YOU GET DOWN
TO ALIZE IN OVERTOWN?

20 MINUTES.

BETTER MAKE IT 10.

GARZA'S GOT ME
ON A SCAVENGER HUNT.

I GOT TO GET A PICTURE OF
THE INSIDE OF SHERROD'S OFFICE.

IT'S GUARDED
BY A GIGANTIC HUMAN BEING.

AND JUDGING BY THE LOOKS
OF THIS PLACE,

I'M BETTING IT'S LOCKED.

I'LL BE THERE.
Thank you.

HERE WE GO.

GRAY IS HEADED OVER.

HEY.
SORRY I'M LATE.

NO WORRIES.

THIS IS, UH...

THIS IS SOME HEAT WE'RE HAVING,
HUH?

IT'S FINE WITH ME.
I LIKE SUNNY DAYS.

WHAT DID HE SAY?

SOMETHING ABOUT SUNNY DAYS.

THE WEATHER.

THAT'S CARD'S
FAVORITE RECOGNITION CODE.

HE HAD DIFFERENT SIGNALS
FOR ALL HIS FIELD OPS.

WHAT?
DO YOU THINK WE'RE BLOWN?
I DON'T KNOW.

BUT HE MUST BE WORRIED
SOMEONE'S LISTENING IN.

WAIT, WAIT.
MIKE, MIKE, HANG ON. HANG ON.

I MEAN, MAYBE GRAY'S
JUST GIVING HIM THE ALL-CLEAR.

LET'S NOT JUMP SHIP
UNTIL WE KNOW WHERE IT'S GOING.

SEE WHAT I MEAN?

WESTEN WAS LOOKING FOR PEOPLE
WHO WANTED ANSON DEAD.

LONG LIST.

I THINK HE KNEW
YOU WERE ON IT.

WHY DO YOU THINK
WE CLOSED THE LOOP?

IT WASN'T 'CAUSE MICHAEL
STOPPED SENDING ME
CHRISTMAS CARDS.

I GET IT. BUT IF HE
WAS ONTO YOU, HE MIGHT
HAVE TOLD SOMEONE.

IT'S UNDER CONTROL.

BACK OFF THE CAFFEINE,
CHAMP.

SOMETHING IS WRONG, SAM.
HE'S SOFT-SELLING IT.

HOW ABOUT IF WE GIVE THE MAN
30 WHOLE SECONDS TO PITCH THIS?

IF YOU'RE SO CONFIDENT,

HOW COME I'M PULLING TRIGGERS
AND BURNING LOFTS?

THAT'S A NEED-TO-KNOW,
TYLER.

WELL, WHATEVER THIS IS,
I'M A PART OF IT NOW.

THERE'S BLOOD ON MY HANDS.

READ...ME...IN.

FINE.

BUT NOT HERE.

FRIDAY.

I'LL SHOW YOU THE BRIEFING
MATERIAL, THE WHOLE LID.

WE'RE DONE.
YOU'LL HEAR FROM ME.

OKAY. SEE?
HE DIALED IT IN.

I THINK HE JUST -- OKAY.
DAMN IT. MIKE.

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?
WHAT WAS WHAT?

WE REHEARSED THIS
FIVE TIMES.

AND IN NO VERSION
WAS THERE A RECOGNITION CODE.

I SAID NO SURPRISES!

HE ASKED ABOUT THE HEAT.

HE WANTED TO KNOW
IF I'D BEEN FOLLOWED.

I HAD TO LET HIM KNOW
WE WERE CLEAR.

YOU DIDN'T PUSH
FOR ONE HARD PIECE OF INTEL!

IF YOU'RE RUNNING
SOME DOUBLE GAME --

BACK OFF!
I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING!

CARD IS SPOOKED.

IF I HAD PUSHED TOO HARD,
HE WOULD'VE SHUT DOWN.

GIVE ME TIME.

I'LL REEL HIM IN.

I WILL GET WHAT WE NEED.

YOU BETTER.

OH, NICE NECKLACE.

YOU KNOW, I THINK I HAVE
A MATCHING BRACELET

IF YOU'D LIKE TO BORROW IT
SOMETIME.

YOU GOT JOKES.

THE OFFICE IS BACK THERE.
THE BOSS IS OVER THERE.

AND BEEFY "T" HAS NOT MOVED
SINCE I CALLED YOU.

[ SIGHS ]

UH, CHAMPAGNE?

THE ONE ON THE TOP SHELF.

AND CAN I KEEP
THE CORK AND THE CAGE?

I'M A COLLECTOR.

CAN WE NOT CELEBRATE
JUST YET?

YOU STILL GOT TO
PICK YOUR WAY IN.

DID YOU GET SOME TOOLS?

WHAT DO YOU THINK
I'M COLLECTING?

CLEVER GIRL.

SO, HOW YOU GONNA CLEAR BIG BOY
OUT OF THE WAY?

I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT.
WISH ME LUCK.

PARTY PEOPLE, WHAT IS UP?

[ CHUCKLES ]

YOU.

YOU.
YOU LOOK LIKE A PLAYER.

AM I RIGHT, LADIES?
AM I RIGHT?

IS HE A PLAYER?
LOOK AT HIM.

WHY DON'T YOU
GET UP OUT OF HERE, MAN?

NO, NO. SHH. LISTEN.
LISTEN. LISTEN.

SERIOUSLY.

I'M DOWN HERE FROM JACKSONVILLE
ON BUSINESS,

AND I GOT A DEAL FOR YOU,
HOMEY.

MY MAN SAID GET OUT OF HERE.
I NEED YOU TO --

HEY, MALIK!

NO!
I DIDN'T WANT TO DO THAT.

WHO'S MALIK?

HEY, NO, NO.

WE DON'T NEED MALIK
INVOLVED IN THIS.

NO.
FALSE ALARM, MALIK.

WE'RE GOOD. WE'RE GOOD.
WE'RE GOOD. WE'RE GOOD.

BACK TO YOUR BUSINESS.

BOUNCE THIS FOOL.

NO, NO BOUNCING. LOOK,
I JUST WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

[ GRUNTING ]

WHEN YOU IN MY CLUB...

YOU...

BEST...

LISTEN!

THAT WAS FUN.
THAT WAS FUN.

WE ALL LEARNED SOME THINGS.

YOU GUYS DON'T LIKE MONEY.
I DIG IT.

DON'T LET ME SEE YOU AGAIN.

THAT'S SOME GOOD ADVICE.

HERE YOU GO.

WHOO.

[ CHUCKLES ]
HEY, HEY.

SO, WHAT HAPPENED?

WHAT CAN I SAY, MAN?

SHERROD LOVES HIS DRINK.
IT'S A PARTY UP IN THERE.

RIGHT.
DID YOU GET THE SHOT OR NOT?

WHAT?
THE PICTURE.
DO YOU HAVE IT?

AH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.
YEAH, MAN.

WHOOP. BOOM.

JUST LIKE YOU ASKED.

ALL RIGHT, MR. TRAIN.

IT LOOKS LIKE
YOU'RE FOR REAL.

WHY DON'T YOU
GO TAKE A NAP SOMEWHERE?

WE'LL BE TALKING REAL SOON.

CAN'T WAIT.

[ GROANS ]

I JU-- OW!
OW! OW!

YOU SHOULD HAVE
LET ME STOP THEM.

I COULD HAVE STOPPED THEM.

YEAH. THAT'S DEBATABLE.

THAT ONE DUDE WAS THREE BILLS,
EASY.

[ Groaning ] OUCH.

I HATE THIS JOB SO MUCH.

WELL, THE HARD PART'S OVER.
YOU'RE IN.

NOW ALL YOU HAVE TO DO

IS CONVINCE GARZA TO STEAL A GUN
FROM POLICE LOCKUP,

WE'LL GET HIM ON TAPE,
AND AYN GETS HER LIFE BACK.

YEAH, I GET IT.

BUT IF GARZA CATCHES ME
WEARING A WIRE,

MY KIDNEYS ARE
GONNA GET ANOTHER WORKOUT.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY
ABOUT THAT.

I HAVE SAM
WORKING ON SOMETHING.

WE'RE GONNA CATCH THE BASTARD
ON TAPE FROM DOWN THE BLOCK.

HEY, YOU WANT TO HELP?

HELP DO WHAT?

[ LAUGHS ] SMART MAN.

COME OVER HERE.

ALWAYS ASK THAT QUESTION.

I GET MYSELF
INTO SO MUCH TROUBLE

HELPING PEOPLE WITH STUFF
WITHOUT ASKING WHAT.

SIT DOWN.

YOU WANT TO HELP US
TAKE DOWN THE GUY THAT
SENT YOUR MOM TO PRISON?

TELL ME WHAT TO DO.

Michael:
THE TWO MOST CHALLENGING PARTS
OF PLANTING A LISTENING DEVICE

ARE QUICK CONCEALMENT
AND POWER.

IF YOUR TARGET
WEARS A RADIO FOR WORK,

YOU CAN KILL TWO BIRDS
WITH ONE STONE

BY BUGGING A DUPLICATE POWER
PACK AND SWITCHING THEM OUT.

DO IT RIGHT,
AND YOU GET A BUG

THAT YOUR TARGET
CARRIES EVERYWHERE HE GOES.

OKAY.
LET'S TEST IT.

CHICKEN BUTT.

[ LAUGHS ]

I READ THAT, 10-BY-10.

YOU READY, JESSE?

YEAH,
JUST GIVE ME THE THING.

THANKS --
FOR HELPING MY MOM.

SURE THING, LITTLE MAN.

[ SIREN CHIRPING ]

[ POLICE RADIO CHATTER ]

I ASKED YOU
TO KEEP THIS ON THE LOW.

YOU GOT ME STROLLING
UP TO A POLICE STATION?

YOU LAZY MOTHER--
DON'T YOU WORRY ABOUT IT.

NO, NO.
I'M WORRIED ABOUT IT.

MATTER OF FACT, GIVE ME
YOUR PHONE AND YOUR RADIO.

[ LAUGHS ]

I'M SERIOUS.
REALLY?

I'M TURNING
BOTH THEM BITCHES OFF.

I AIN'T GETTING BUGGED TODAY.

THERE.

WAIT. WHAT?
YOU TAKING THEM APART?

YOU'RE DAMN STRAIGHT.

MY BOY TINY'S
DOING 10 TO 15

BECAUSE OF SOME ELECTRONIC
VOODOO THE FEDS PULLED.

JUST TELL ME
WHAT WE'RE PUTTING ON SHERROD

SO I CAN GET THE HELL
OUT OF HERE, MAN.

JUST A DIME BAG.

I FIGURE I CAN PULL A STREET
RIP LATER, AND WHATEVER I --
A DIME BAG? HELL NO.

HOW AM I
SUPPOSED TO STEP UP

IF SHERROD'S GONNA BE
OUT ON BAIL THE NEXT DAY, MAN?

I COULD HAVE FRAMED HIM
FOR POSSESSION MY DAMN SELF.

I CAME TO YOU TO PUT HIM AWAY
FOR GOOD. COME ON, NOW.

WHAT EXACTLY
DID YOU HAVE IN MIND?

YOU GO GET A GUN
FROM AN UNSOLVED CASE.

WHAT? NO.
I'M NOT DOING THAT.

YOU FIRE A FEW SHOTS
INTO A PHONE BOOK,

I PLANT THE SHELLS
IN SHERROD'S DESK.

I SAID I'M NOT DOING THAT.

PLANTING A LITTLE WEED
IS ONE THING,

BUT STEALING EVIDENCE
FROM IMPOUND?

THAT'S TOO MUCH.
COME ON, MAN!
MAN!

YOU GOT THIS REP

LIKE YOU THIS OUTLAW COP
WHO BREAKS ALL THE RULES.

"OOH, GARZA, HE'S A BAD MAN.
YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR ASS."

AND NOW WHAT? YOU SCARED?
I THOUGHT YOU DID WHAT IT TAKES.

I THOUGHT
YOU GOT THINGS DONE.

[ SIGHS ]

FINE.

YEAH,
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

NOW, YOU MEET ME
AT RIVER PARK -- 2:00.

YOU BRING THE GUN.

WE'LL POP A COUPLE OFF.
AND WE FINISH THIS.

WELL, WHERE'S GRAY?

HE'S DOWN BY THE DOCKS.

MOM, ARE YOU SURE
YOU WANT TO DO THIS?

I NEED TO DO THIS.
I'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE.

A VICTIM WANTS TO MEET THE
CRIMINAL, AND IT NEVER HELPS.

MICHAEL, JUST STOP.

I JUST DON'T WANT YOU TO PUT
YOURSELF THROUGH SOMETHING

THAT'S JUST
GONNA MAKE IT WORSE.

TRUST ME --
THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

[ SIGHS ]

Gray: MA'AM.

MADELINE WESTEN.

THANK YOU
FOR AGREEING TO MEET.

I WANT TO START BY SAYING
HOW SORRY I AM --

I DON'T GIVE A DAMN
ABOUT THAT.

ALL I WANT FROM YOU
IS HONEST ANSWERS.

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT GOES ON
IN THE MIND OF SOMEONE LIKE YOU.

WHAT'S YOUR TRAINING?

I WAS A SNIPER
IN THE MARINES.

WHY'D YOU JOIN THE CIA?

I WANTED
TO SERVE MY COUNTRY.

THAT'S ALL? HUH?

DO YOU HAVE A HARD TIME
GETTING CLOSE TO PEOPLE?

BAD CHILDHOOD?

IS THAT WHY
CARD PICKED YOU?

'CAUSE YOU LIKE
HURTING PEOPLE?

HE PICKED ME BECAUSE I'M
VERY GOOD AT WHAT I DO.

THEN WHY DID MY SON DIE...
IF YOU'RE SO GOOD?

I WAS WORRIED
ABOUT THE WIND --

SPEED,
TRAJECTORY, DISTANCE.

AND SO I SWITCHED
TO A HIGHER-CALIBER GUN.

I KNEW IT WOULD GO THROUGH.

I TOOK THE SHOT ANYWAY.

IT WAS MY JOB.

[ SIGHS ]

[ Voice breaking ]
DID YOU EVEN KNOW WHO HE WAS?

NO.

HE WAS MY BABY BOY.

[ SNIFFLES ]

HE LIKED CARS, ACTION MOVIES,
AND GRAPHIC DESIGN.

HE LOVED HIS FAMILY.

HIS NAME WAS
NATHANIEL ELIAS WESTEN.

THE NEXT TIME YOU FIRE A BULLET
THAT COULD END SOMEONE'S LIFE,

YOU KNOW THEIR NAME.

YES, MA'AM.

I'M SORRY.

[ SIGHS ]

OKAY.

It's been an hour.

When are we pulling the plug
on "Candid Camera"?

AS A SPY,

YOUR JOB IS OFTEN TO GET PEOPLE
TO BREAK THE RULES.

OKAY. THAT'S HIM.
HERE WE GO.

YOU USE THEIR GREED,
THEIR FEAR, OR THEIR RAGE

TO MAKE THEM BETRAY THE THINGS
THEY VALUE MOST.

WITH A PROFESSIONAL SPY
PUSHING THEM HARD,

MOST PEOPLE
ABANDON THEIR PRINCIPLES.

WHAT THE HELL
IS ALL THIS?

BUT SOMETIMES,
VERY OCCASIONALLY, THEY WON'T.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?
YOU BRING THE GUN OR WHAT?

I THOUGHT ABOUT YOUR PLAN.

SORRY.
I'M NOT DOING IT.

THAT'S KIND OF THE OPPOSITE
OF WHAT WE WANTED ON TAPE.

AND WHEN A TARGET DECIDES
TO STICK TO HIS PRINCIPLES,

YOU CAN SUDDENLY FIND A MISSION
GOING VERY, VERY BADLY.

WHAT? NOW ALL THE SUDDEN
YOU'RE CAPTAIN AMERICA?

PLEASE, I'M --
[ GRUNTS ]

YOU DON'T THINK
I CAN BE?

OKAY, WHAT THE HELL?

HEY, HEY, FI,
HANG ON. HANG ON.

Garza: YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME?
YOU'RE WRONG.

SHERROD KILLED MY PARTNER.

HE SHOT HIM DOWN
IN FRONT OF WITNESSES,

ONLY NO ONE CAME FORWARD
TO TESTIFY,

SO THE CASE FELL APART.

I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT,
MAN.

YOU'RE ALL THE SAME --
EVERY C.I. I EVER WORKED WITH.

I'M NOT GONNA MAKE
THIS MISTAKE AGAIN.

ARE YOU CRACKED?
I THOUGHT YOU WANTED REVENGE.
NO.

WHAT I WANT IS MY PARTNER --
YOU HEAR ME?

THAT'S WHAT I WANT.
I WANT MY PARTNER BACK.

SO, WHAT? NOW YOU FOLDING UP
SHOP? IT'S JUST A GUN, MAN.

I SAID I'M NOT STEALING EVIDENCE
FROM ANY CASE TO CLOSE MINE.

I'M NOT SCREWING COPS.
I'M NOT SCREWING VICTIMS.

THAT'S NOT WHO I AM.

YOU WANT TO RUN
THE GARDEN TERRACE,

YOU MIGHT JUST
GET YOUR CHANCE.

BUT IF I'M STILL ALIVE
TO SEE IT,

I'M GONNA TAKE YOU DOWN,
TRAIN.

MAN, HOLD ON.
WE HAD A DEAL.

NO.
NOW WE'VE GOT A NEW DEAL.

YOU STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM
THE TERRACE THIS AFTERNOON.

AND KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.

OH, SO, WHAT? YOU GONNA
TAKE ON SHERROD IN HIS PROJECT.

WELL, HIS PROJECT
HAPPENS TO BE IN MY CITY.

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

HEY, YOU GO DOWN THERE,

YOU'RE GONNA GET THROWN
OFF A ROOF, MAN.

[ TIRES SCREECH ]
YEAH?

WELL, THEN MAYBE THIS TIME
HE'LL GO DOWN FOR KILLING A COP.

[ TIRES SQUEAL ]

Sam: HEY, MAN.

MY GOD.
THAT BASTARD'S CRAZY.

YEAH, WELL, HE'S NOT THE BASTARD
WE THOUGHT HE WAS.

HE'S GONNA GET HIMSELF KILLED
TRYING TO BUST SHERROD HEAD-ON.

AND IF THAT HAPPENS,
AYN ROTS IN PRISON,

AMARI GOES TO FOSTER CARE...

AND WE GOT A COP KILLED.

Michael:
FI, WHAT'S WRONG?

AYN'S COP JUST CHOSE
A VERY INCONVENIENT TIME

TO DECIDE TO BECOME
A BETTER MAN.

AND THAT MAKES YOU UPSET?

HE'S ABOUT TO GET HIMSELF KILLED
IN OVERTOWN.

SAM AND JESSE
ARE ON THEIR WAY,

BUT I DON'T KNOW
IF THEY'RE GONNA MAKE IT.

[ SIGHS ]
NOW YOU'RE IN?

I SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN
FROM THE BEGINNING.

Jesse:
JUST MAKE SURE YOU APPROACH
ON HOWARD FROM THE NORTHEAST.

YEAH.

FI'S ON HER WAY.

SHE'S BRINGING MIKE
AND A TRUNKLOAD OF WEAPONS.

[ SIREN WAILING ]

HERE COMES GARZA.

Garza:
OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN,
HALLOWED BE THY NAME.

AND LEAD US NOT
INTO TEMPTATION,

BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

HOW CLOSE ARE MIKE AND FI?
ABOUT FIVE MINUTES.

OKAY.

WELL, I THINK
THEY'RE GONNA BE TOO LATE

BECAUSE GARZA
IS GETTING READY TO DIE.

...FOR THEY KINGDOM IS THE GLORY
AND POWER FOREVER AND EVER.

AMEN.

MAYBE HE'S...
JUST REALLY RELIGIOUS.

SHERROD, COME OUT HERE AND FACE
ME LIKE A MAN, YOU LITTLE BITCH!

NOPE, YOU'RE RIGHT.
HE'S GONNA DIE.

YOUR TIME IS UP.

SHERROD!

I KNOW YOU'RE HOME!

SOMEBODY
GOT TO STOP HIM.
WITH WHAT?
A BUTTERFLY NET?

WELL, I'M NOT JUST GONNA SIT
HERE AND WATCH A COP GET KILLED.

IF HE'S NOT CALLING FOR BACKUP,
I'LL DO IT FOR HIM.

[ CELLPHONE BEEPS ]

I'M TAKING YOU IN!

THERE YOU ARE.

SHERROD WASHINGTON,

YOU'RE WANTED FOR QUESTIONING
ABOUT YOUR INVOLVEMENT

IN THE SALE AND DISTRIBUTION
OF COCAINE.

YOU'RE WANTED FOR QUESTIONING
ABOUT YOUR INVOLVEMENT

IN THE PROSTITUTION
OF UNDERAGE WOMEN.

AND YOU'RE WANTED
FOR QUESTIONING

ABOUT YOUR INVOLVEMENT
IN THE DEATH OF MY PARTNER,

OFFICER ANTON SPROLES.

I'M TAKING YOU IN.

DAMN, GARZA.

YOU TURNED THIS PLACE
INTO A GHOST TOWN.

I GUESS WE'RE JUST MISSING
A GHOST, HUH?

YOU'RE JUST MAKING THINGS
EASIER ON ME, SHERROD.

GOOD. NOW I'M TAKING YOU IN
FOR ASSAULTING A POLICE OFFICER.

[ GRUNTS ]

[ SIGHS ]
HOW'S IT GOING, BOYS?

WHAT?
DID YOU STOP FOR COFFEE?

GARZA'S OVER THERE
GETTING BEATEN TO DEATH.

Jesse:
YEAH, AND THEY GOT NO PROBLEM
DOING IT RIGHT OUT IN THE OPEN.

ALL RIGHT, THEN.

LET'S SHOW THEM HOW
PROFESSIONALS SEND A MESSAGE.

GIVE ME THE RADIO.

FI -- THAT CAR.

JESSE -- THAT CAR.

BIG?

BIGGER.

USE THE TRACER ROUNDS.

WHEN I OPEN UP, YOU JOIN IN.

WE'LL MAKE IT LOOK LIKE HELL
IS RAINING DOWN ON THEIR HEADS.

[ LAUGHS ]

MIKE, I HAVE SO MUCH MORE FUN
WHEN YOU'RE HERE.

HEY.
YO, HOLD UP. YO, HOLD UP.

[ GARZA COUGHING ]

MAN,
YOU SHOULD HAVE NEVER

STEPPED FOOT ON THE TERRACE
BY YOURSELF.

[ GUN COCKS ]

ATTENTION,
SHERROD WASHINGTON.

STEP AWAY
FROM THE DETECTIVE.

TELL ME YOU HEAR ME,
SHERROD.

WE CAN HEAR EVERY WORD
YOU'RE SAYING.

WHO IS THIS?

WELL,
THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.

ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF.
MY NAME IS...

AND I'M FROM
THE DEPARTMENT OF...

[ DEVICE BEEPS ]

WHOA!
WHOA!

You want to find out
where the next one is,

OR DO YOU WANT TO
BACK AWAY?

Y'ALL CAN HAVE
THIS PIG! WE'RE OUT!

NO, I DON'T THINK SO.
YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

WHAT THE HELL
DO Y'ALL WANT?!

I want you all to surrender
your weapons to Detective Garza.

[ SIRENS WAILING ]

AFTER ALL,
HE JUST ARRESTED YOU.

[ TIRES SCREECH ]

YOU HEARD THE MAN.
DROP YOUR WEAPONS.

[ GUN CLATTERS ]

THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, WHOEVER YOU ARE.

BE GOOD, GARZA.

[ HANDCUFFS CLICKING ]

OH, AWESOME!

[ CHUCKLES ]

SAY, "THANK YOU."

THANK YOU.

Sam: YOU'RE WELCOME.

I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU DID IT,
GIRL.

WHEN THEY PULLED ME
OUT OF LOCKUP THIS MORNING

AND SAID THAT I WAS FREE TO GO,
I THOUGHT,

"THAT CRIMINAL
IS STONE-COLD MAGIC."

WELL,
I GOT A LOT OF HELP.

I EVEN GOT A LITTLE
FROM GARZA HIMSELF,

BUT YOU PROBABLY DON'T WANT
TO HEAR ABOUT THAT.

OH, I THINK I DO.

WELL, WE TRIED ENTRAPMENT,
AND WE WERE GONNA BLACKMAIL HIM.

THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN.

HE JUST -- HE JUST DECIDED
TO DO THIS.

SOMETIMES WHEN YOU PUSH PEOPLE
PAST THEIR LIMITS,

THEY REALIZE
THEY HAVE NO BUSINESS

STANDING SO CLOSE TO THE LINE.

WELL, GOOD FOR HIM.

MAN LEARNED SOMETHING
TOOK ME SIX YEARS TO REALIZE.

SOME CHOICES WE MAKE...

YOU WANT TO TAKE THEM BACK,
BUT YOU CAN'T.

I'M JUST GLAD
TO HAVE A SECOND CHANCE.

ME TOO.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

Madeline: MICHAEL.

Michael: HEY, MOM.
BIG DAY TOMORROW.

WE START GATHERING EVIDENCE
AGAINST CARD --

THE SECRETS HE'S KEEPING,
THE REASON NATE DIED.

THERE'S NO REASON
NATE DIED.

I UNDERSTAND HOW YOU FEEL,
MOM.

I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT
HE'S GONNA PAY FOR WHAT HE DID.

I PROMISE YOU THAT.

AND ALL THE THINGS I'VE DONE,
THEY'LL BE WORTH IT.

MICHAEL,
I'M LEAVING MIAMI.

I GUESS THAT WOULD BE
A GOOD IDEA.

IT WILL SELL THE STORY
THAT WE REALLY DIED IN --

NO, IT'S NO RUSE.
IT'S PERMANENT.

YOUR AUNT JILL SAID
I COULD STAY WITH HER,

AND I'VE BEEN MISSING HER
FOR A LONG TIME.

SO, THAT'LL WORK.

DON'T YOU THINK
IT'S A LITTLE DRASTIC?

I CAN'T KEEP WATCHING YOU
TURN YOUR SOUL INSIDE OUT,

WORKING
WITH THESE MONSTERS --

TYLER GRAY AND CARD
AND WHOEVER'S NEXT.

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

THERE'S NO ONE NEXT.
AFTER THIS, NO ONE.

RIGHT.

I NEED YOU.

I CAN'T.

I CAN'T GO ON
LIVING IN A PLACE

WHERE EVERYTHING REMINDS ME
OF THE SONS I'VE LOST.

I'M STILL HERE.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT.

I NEED A NEW BEGINNING,
MICHAEL.

AND I WANT YOU
TO DO ME A FAVOR.

WHEN THIS BUSINESS WITH CARD
IS OVER...

I WANT YOU TO START OVER,
TOO.

Westen:
WHEN YOU'RE ON A HIGH-STAKES

INTELLIGENCE-GATHERING
OPERATION,

CONCENTRATION IS KEY.

WHETHER YOU'RE IN A CAR
OR ON THE STREET

OR DOING YOUR SURVEILLANCE
POOLSIDE,

YOU HAVE TO STAY FOCUSED
AT ALL TIMES.

Jesse: LOOK ALIVE.
GRAY'S HERE FOR THE MEETING.

ALL CLEAR OVER HERE.
WE'LL STAND BY.

BECAUSE EVEN
THE SLIGHTEST DETAIL

CAN MEAN THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN A SUCCESSFUL MISSION
AND A COMPLETE DISASTER.

YOU'RE A LITTLE EDGY THERE,
BUDDY.

DON'T.
WE HAVE A JOB TO DO.

YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT YOUR MOM.
IT'S OKAY.

IT'S PERFECTLY NORMAL.

QUIET.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR, DOOR OPENS ]

Card:
GOOD TO SEE YOU, TYLER.

ANOTHER SUNNY DAY.

Gray:
IT'S A SCORCHER.

YOU GONNA INVITE ME IN, OR ARE
WE GONNA TALK IN THE HALL--

[ STATIC CRACKLES ]

OKAY. WHAT THE HELL?
WE JUST LOST HIM.

WAIT. IS THAT?

NO SIGNAL.

FREQUENCY JAMMER.
THAT'S NOT GOOD.

AND THAT'S NOT GOOD,
EITHER.

CARD BROUGHT A TEAM.

WAIT.
MIKE, HOLD ON.

LOOK, LOOK,
IF HE WANTED GRAY DEAD,

HE WOULDN'T HAVE BROUGHT
ALL THESE GUYS.

HE'S NOT GONNA KILL HIM.

HE'S GONNA BRING GRAY IN

AND HANG EVERYTHING
AROUND HIS NECK --

PANAMA, NATE,
ANSON, ALL OF IT.

WE GOT TO HAUL CARD
OUT IN CUFFS

AND TAKE OUR CHANCES NOW
BEFORE HIS TEAM'S IN PLACE.

[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS ]

KEEP AN EYE OUT.

I SHOULD GO IN WITH YOU.

IF CARD'S PEOPLE ARE COMING,
I NEED A HEADS-UP.

GET DOWN TO THE WINDOW
AT THE END OF THE HALL

AND KEEP AN EYE OUT.

HELLO, THERE.

SHOW ME YOUR HANDS, TOM.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

GRAY, HE HAS A WEAPON
TRAINED ON YOU.

MICHAEL WESTEN.

BACK FROM THE DEAD.

NOT JUST ME, TOM.

THE WHOLE TEAM.
IT'S OVER.

THE TRUTH'S COMING OUT.

PUT THE WEAPON DOWN.

RIGHT.

RIGHT AFTER YOU, KILLER.

TOM, DROP THE WEAPON.

THIS IS BETWEEN HIM AND ME,
SPORT.

I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
SOMETHING WAS GOING ON.

ESPECIALLY WITH THOSE
JUST-TOO-CUTE FILES

THAT SHOWED UP
FROM YOUR LOFT.

TOM.

PUT THE WEAPON DOWN.

DON'T DO --

[ WHISTLES ]

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?
SHOOT ME?

YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY GUY IN
THE ROOM WHO HAS A TEAM OUTSIDE.

I TOLD MY PEOPLE THAT I WAS
COMING TO SEE AN UNSTABLE ASSET.

GOD DAMN IT!

I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.
I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.

I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS!

DON'T! DON'T.

I'M SO SORRY.

HE PAINTED ME INTO A CORNER

THE MINUTE
HE KICKED DOWN THAT DOOR.

NO. NO, TOM.

HE KILLED YOUR BROTHER!

HANDS ON YOUR HEAD!

HANDS ON YOUR HEAD!

LISTEN TO ME, MICHAEL.

GRAY KILLED ANSON.
GRAY SHOT YOUR BROTHER.

HE MURDERED NATE.
HE DID THAT.

RIGHT THERE.
HE DID THAT.

YOU ORDERED HIM TO.
YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE.

I NEVER WANTED NATE DEAD.

I WOULD NEVER
HAVE TAKEN THAT SHOT!

YOU TRIED TO HAVE ME KILLED.

AND THAT IS
MY OWN PERSONAL HELL.

IT WASN'T
SUPPOSED TO GO LIKE THAT.

YOU WERE LIKE A SON TO ME.

[ Chuckling ] YOU ARE
OUT OF YOUR MIND.

WE BOTH KNOW THAT IT IS A BIG,
BAD WORLD OUT THERE, MICHAEL.

AND GUYS LIKE YOU AND ME --
WE MAKE CALLS.

WE GET UP IN THE MORNING

AND WE KNOW THE ENDS
JUSTIFY THE MEANS.

WHY DO YOU THINK ANSON
HAD TO GO? I'LL TELL YOU WHY.

BECAUSE HE KNEW
WHAT I HAD GOING ON IN YEMEN,

IN CHINA, IN PAKISTAN.

SOMEONE HAS TO CARRY THE BAG
ON THE FRONT LINE.

SO...I PULL THE TRIGGER ON
A COUPLE OF REALLY BAD GUYS...

...OR WE ROLL THE DICE

ON A COUPLE
OF REALLY BAD CONFLICTS.

YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT TREASON,
TOM.

MIGHT BE TIME FOR YOU
TO GROW UP, MY FRIEND.

YOU'RE NOT MY FRIEND.

BUT I WAS.
AND I DAMN SURE CAN BE AGAIN.

WE CAN DO THINGS, MICHAEL --
GREAT THINGS.

NECESSARY THINGS.

THERE'S A LONG TO-DO LIST, AND
THERE'S NOBODY LEFT TO DO THEM.

YOU WIPED OUT
THE LAST BATCH.

IT'S JUST YOU AND ME NOW.

CLOCK'S TICKING.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

CAN WE -- CAN WE PUT
ALL THIS BEHIND US?

HUH?
CAN WE MOVE INTO THE FUTURE?

I'M SO PROUD OF YOU, SON.
