Chicago P.D. (2014–…): Season 2, Episode 3 - The Weigh Station - full transcript

- I played a game with i.A.
To get my job back.

- I've told you everything,

Good, bad, ugly.

You should have told me.

- I've been clean
for seven months.

- Mom, i've been down
this road with you

So many times.
- But this is different, baby.

- Really?

- Oskar bembenek just put
$100,000 bounty on your head

For killing
his brother jacob.

- Any other apartments
broken into?



- Just yours.

- Jay!

[patrons screaming]

- Ah!
- Maddie!

- You're okay.
I need you to stay calm.

Just stay calm, okay?
I need you to call 911 now.

- Okay.

[phone beeps]
- lincoln 5021 emergency.

I need backup at
4292 south emerald street.

- Maddie, everything's going
to be okay.

- Jay?
- Hey, come here.

- Was anybody hit?

- Erin, i need more towels.
I need more towels.

- Give me towels, now.
- Yeah, here.



- [gasping]
[sirens approaching]

- Help's on the way.

[siren blaring]

- Shot to the neck.

My partner's got her
behind the bar.

- [gasping]
- all right.

We got it from here.
I need the stretcher,

The back board, and kerlix
for the bleeding.

- We'll get him.

- So you knew the victim?

- Maddie callahan.
She worked there.

- No i.D. On the shooter?

- No, patrol's going door to
door in the neighborhood

Looking for witnesses.

- That was the hospital.

Your friend's in icu,
but she's alive.

- Thanks.
- Hey, it's not your fault.

Someone needs to talk
to bembenek.

- Oh, olinsky's already
on that.

- A black arcadia was found
abandoned in englewood.

It matches the description
of the getaway vehicle,

But there's no prints.
They torched it.

- White male just checked
into a south side clinic

About a half hour ago,
two bullet wounds.

- All right, lindsay,
antonio, get on it.

No, no, no, jay.

You're in protective custody
until this dies down.

- They shot my friend.

They nearly killed
me and erin.

- You got a target
on your back.

You're not going anywhere
till that target's removed.

- So i'm under
house arrest?

- You wanted to see us,
sergeant?

- Halstead doesn't leave
your sight until i say so.

And he stays here
at the 21st.

- You got it.
- They don't have to stay

Up here to keep
an eye on me.

You--you got to be
kidding me!

- Keep an eye on him.

- Sorry, guys.
- Hey--

- Oh, the investigation
can begin, everyone.

Nadia's here.
What, did you take a bus?

- Two, actually.

- What are you doing here,
nadia,

Answering phones
for 12 bucks an hour?

- Hey, it's a start.

- No, pumpkin,
it's an end.

You're going to be up there
until your boobs

Are bouncing
off your knees,

And all you're going to have
to show for it

Is free dental,
maybe a couple of flings

With some married cops.

- I'm going to be a cop
one day,

And a damn good one.

- Not going to happen.

Not with your resume.

- Happy birthday,
sergeant.

- Hey.
- Lindsay, you got a visitor.

- You got to be
kidding me.

- Who's that?

- I'll meet you
in the car.

- Make it quick.
- Yeah.

I am in the middle
of something.

- I emailed you
like you told me to,

But you didn't answer me, so--
- summarize your email.

- I'm getting married today.

At 5:00.

- Why do you want
me there?

Really.
I met the guy,

I played along,
me and you, we're best friends.

And if johnny didn't buy it,
i'm sorry.

That's the best i can do.

- Could you just put your
machete down for one minute?

I'm getting married.

You're my only child.

I'm trying to turn
my life around.

- I gotta go.

[door buzzes]

- So they got you
in protective custody, i hear.

You got a lot of enemies
in gen pop, don't you?

- [scoffs]
nah.

Just friends.
I got friends everywhere.

- Me too.

The warden
used to be a cop.

I know you're afraid
to die, oskar.

I could always see it
in your eyes.

So i'm here
to give you one chance...

To live.

You call off the hit
on halstead,

And you tell me

Who it was tried
to take him out at that bar.

- Wait, wait--
we're talking about

The detective halstead
that killed my brother?

That halstead?
- Listen to me.

Carefully.

I'm giving you
one chance.

[tapping]
- i'm doing time.

Trying to get my head
around that.

Can't be worried about
the outside world.

.

- Hey.
Hey, sergeant.

Listen, we know bembenek
put this contract

Out from prison,
but he's not talking.

So we turned his cell
upside down, we got nothing.

We think he put the call out
from a prison land line.

Olinsky knows the warden,
says you know somebody

In the sheriff's office
who handles these things.

So if there's any way
i could get those recordings

Without having to go through
all the red tape,

That would be...
Well, that would be dandy.

- Deputy radigan.
I'll give you her number.

- Sweet.

What the hell is that?

- This?
- Yeah.

- It's a ham sandwich.

No, it's a shrimp boat.
You want the number or not?

- Yes, please.

- Let me ask
you something.

- Mm-hmm.
- How's nadia doing up there?

- She's killing it.
Why?

No reason.
- Thank you.

- Where are you going,
donald?

- Do i know you?

- What did you
get treated for?

- Hey, look, i just--
ah!

I accidentally
thumbed the trigger.

Pow.

- Twice, in the back?

- Detective dawson,
i'm going to bet you

A week's salary that
the bullets they took

Out of his shoulder
are going to match my gun.

- You couldn't give me odds
high enough to take that bet.

- You tell us what happened
before we get the slugs

From the nurse,
you're officially co-operative.

You wait until after,
and you just bought yourself

Another ten years.

- I just drove.
I swear to god, i just drove.

And i sure as hell didn't know
a cop was the target.

- Who was the shooter?

- Nurse.
- He's my friend, man.

[knocking]
- karl forsman!

[clattering]

- Chicago pd!

- Come on, hit it.

- Stop! Police!

- Uhh!

- Get up.

- Uhh!
- There we go.

- Opened up on a couple
of cops last night, huh, karl?

- [snorts]

- That hurt my feelings.

Don't you have
some paperwork to do, kevin?

- Yeah.

Yeah, i got some
typing to do.

- Oof!

[gags, grunts]

[coughs, gasps]

- Did you grow up
catholic, karl?

I mean, most poles
are catholic, right?

Remember hearing
about purgatory?

I mean, if you weren't
paying attention,

It's--it's a way station
between heaven and hell.

It's like this place.

Heaven, for you,
is upstairs.

Cup of coffee,
comfortable chair, we talk.

You tell me why you opened up
on two cops,

Put a girl in the hospital
with a hole in her neck,

Clinging to life.

Hell...

It's a place we call
the silos.

About a 15-minute drive
from here.

- [stifled grunt]

[short breaths]

Where do you want to go?

- Okay.
Okay.

Got it.

Uh, detective halstead?

Sergeant voight is on
his way up with the suspect.

Um, he asked that on his way
to the interview room,

You wait in his office
for them to pass by.

- Which suspect?
- Uh...

Maybe it's better
that you don't know, right?

- Is it the shooter?

- Let's head
in voight's office, jay.

- First of all,
it's detective.

Second of all,
let's not me and you

Get off on the wrong foot.

- I'm all for that.
But if you can join me

In voight's office, detective,
that'd be great.

- That's him, that's--
- hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.

- Sarge, give me five minutes.
Gimme five minutes!

- Is that what we're
going to do, throw?

Because you're not walking
past me

Until i get an "all clear."

You got that?

- Mm.

- I was at the club.

Some, uh, higher-level guys
were talking

About the contract
on this cop, halstead.

I've been trying
to move up, impress the guys.

Hell, a hundred grand for
the hit wouldn't hurt either.

- It's just you
and this driver?

Novak?

- Yeah, that's it.

Did he give me up?

- Tends to happen when people
are looking at murder charges.

- Yeah.
[scoffs]

Well, for whatever
it's worth,

I wasn't going to go after
anyone else on that list.

- Wait, hold it.

What list?
What are you talking about?

- The list.
Bembenek has a hit list.

If he was going to go
away to prison,

He wanted certain people
killed.

- How many people?

- I don't know.
But it was more

Than just the cop
on there.

[door opens]
- antonio's in logan square.

He's saying he needs you
down there.

- I'll let you
keep him company.

[police radio chatter]

- The assistant
state's attorney

In bembenek's murder trial,
steve kot?

- Yeah.

- Kot's daughter.

Two shots to the skull.

16.

.

- Doubling up on squad cars
in front of all the homes

Of the people involved
in the bembenek trial.

There's judges,
lawyers, clerks.

- Bembenek
anticipated that.

That's why he's going after
their family members.

- Two taps to the head
without an eye witness.

That was
a professional hit.

- And we have no idea how many
people are on this list?

- No.

- Hey, will you call
chicago med

And check on maddie
from the bar?

- Yeah, of course.
[phone buzzes]

Hello?

- How'd you know
it was my birthday?

- I have access to all
the personnel files.

Wasn't that hard
to figure out.

And i can assure you
it won't happen again.

Anything else, sergeant?

- No.

- You have a good day.

- Hey, everyone,
this is, uh,

Sheriff charlene radigan.

She helped me secure
phone recordings

Bembenek made on
a cook county land line.

- Most of the calls
are in polish.

Inmates switch to their
native tongues all the time

When they try to cover up
what they're talking about.

- So we're going to need
a translator.

Forsman kid flipped,
right?

You think he'd--
you think he'd do it?

- He'll paint my house
if i want him to.

It's in here.

- Remember, this saturday,
f.O.P. Picnic.

Corn dogs.
- Corn dogs.

- [ahem]
gotta get a cup of coffee.

- Yeah.
I'm gonna get some coffee too.

- Yeah, right.

- So listen, i don't know
what that sounded like,

But i'm not going
to the f.O.P. Picnic with her.

- Corn dogs?

- She mans
the booth i guess.

I told her i like them.

Doesn't everybody like them?
You like them?

- Adam, maybe this
is getting too complicated.

- Stop.
Look, she asked me to go, yes.

I probably should have said,
"no, thank you," flat out, but--

- Maybe we need
to take a break.

- [speaking polish]

- Uh, i don't know who's on
the other end of that call.

I've never heard
that voice before.

He just told bembenek
"i've got the list.

Just tell me when
you want to go shopping."

- We tried to triangulate

The location of where
that call went,

But no luck.

Phone was a throwaway.

- [speaking polish]
- [speaking polish]

- The guy's upset that bembenek
offered the job

To somebody else first.

Somebody named jp.

- Jp?
Joe price.

I thought he was out
of the game.

- Let's find out.

- Hey.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Sorry, man.

Is there something
you want to say to me?

- You really don't
remember me, do you?

- Should i?

- Patrolman byrne.

That doesn't ring
a bell?

- What's with
the guessing game?

- You know what?
Forget it.

- Hey, hey, hey.
Come back here, come here.

Listen,
when your testicles drop

And you finally decide to
tell me what your problem is,

I'm all ears.
But until then,

You do not walk around here
giving me the high hat.

Is that clear?

- Absolutely clear.

- Okay.

- Mike, why don't you head into
the house for a minute, okay?

- What's up, jp?

- Long time, detectives.

How are you guys doing?

How's tricks?
- Kid looks good.

- Yeah, couldn't
be prouder.

Get to spend a lot more time
with him these days,

So thank the good lord
for that, right?

You guys parents?

- Why'd your name come up
on a recorded call

Oskar bembenek made
from cook county?

- Can't help
who calls me.

- We know you were offered
the contract.

- Then you also know
i turned it down.

I'm retired.
Ask ray zancanelli.

He'll tell you.

I just hang out
with the kid these days.

That's it.
- How big is the hit list?

- Conversation
didn't go that far.

[phone ringing]
i said "no thanks," click.

- Hello.

- The judge
from the bembenek trial,

Joseph murray,

Just found his mother
with two in the head.

- You need to come down
to the district.

- I can't help you guys.

- You don't know what
you can do for us.

- At least let me tell
my son.

- Just get in the car.
Come on.

- How are you holding up?
- Not well.

My mother's got this house
on irving park.

I pay the mortgage,
and they've frozen my assets.

- Is there someone
that can help you out?

- Why do you think
i'm talking to you?

- You know who bembenek's
talking to?

A name
would be helpful.

- Look, we got
a 16-year-old girl,

70-year-old woman,

Both executed.

What, are you going
to just sit here and...

Let another innocent
family member get killed?

- My son is trying
to get into tsa.

He's got this pissant
obstruction charge

From when he was 18.

Get that charge sealed,
i'm here to help.

- That would take time.

Time we don't have.

- All i need is a handshake
and your word.

Patrick shostak.

New breed
of contract killer.

Back in the day, we...

I don't know.

There was honor in it.

Today, they blow up a city block
to take out one mark.

They murder the kids if
they can't get to the parents.

- [sighs]
yeah.

- I had the stomach
for a lot of things.

But not for that.

- Do you know how to get
ahold of this shostak guy?

- He has
a messaging service.

Whether or not
he calls me back...

- Give it a go.

- If he calls me back
i say what?

- You have halstead,
and you want to make a deal.

And tell him you got
a photo of halstead, dead.

We'll rig it.

- What if he doesn't
go for it?

- Just improvise.

Isn't that
what you had to do

When you're trying
to kill someone

And the plan
went sideways?

- Allegedly.

.

- Command staff has put
together a task force

To try and reach out
to every aunt, uncle, cousin

Of anyone involved
in the bembenek trial...

Although there's only so much
they can do.

- Hey, that was chicago med.

Maddie's heading
into surgery,

So they're going
to let me know.

- She'll pull through.

- I never should
have been there.

- Don't do that to yourself.

- Hey, ruzek and atwater,

I need a cell phone
rigged up right now.

- What's going on?
- Sit tight.

- I'm tired of sitting.
- Sit tight.

- You're never going to be able
to trace a call from him.

He goes from one drop phone
to another.

I don't know why
you're bothering.

- You know what,
how about i do my job,

You do yours?
How about that?

[phone rings]
- boss.

[ringing]

[ringing]

- Hello.

- Jp?

- What's up, shostak?

I have something
you may want.

- I want a lot of things.

- Halstead.

- My understanding is
you turned down this contract.

- And i heard they offered you
a lot more money than me.

I want half.

- Or what?

- Or i let him go.

And you better
think quick.

The dilaudid i pumped into him's
going to wear off soon.

- 1/3rd.

- Okay.

I'll take care of it,

I'll bring you
a photo for proof.

- No, no, no, no, no.

Just because
i'm talking to you

Doesn't mean i trust you.

I want to see him alive.

- Deal.

- Highway between cermak
and kedzie.

30 minutes.

- There's too many risks.

- There's always risks.

- Jay, you'd be in the car
with a hitman.

- Who's retired,
and who we made a deal with.

- Because that
changes everything.

- We don't know how many people
bembenek wants dead.

[chair clatters]

Isn't this enough?

Sarge.

Sarge,

I will sign whatever
i have to sign

Saying i went
on my own free will,

That i wasn't ordered.

That'll release the city
from all liability.

I don't have
any beneficiaries anyway.

I signed that form the day
i graduated from the academy,

Right before they pinned
a badge on my chest.

- Here.

Ratchets on the cuffs
have been shaved down.

So one tug,
they'll come off.

- Okay.

- Be smart, right?

- Of course.

- All right, i want four
tracking devices on this thing.

- I'm on it.

- All right,
burgess and roman,

You stay close,
but not too close,

In case we need
to call in patrol.

Ruzek, you're with antonio,
atwater with olinsky.

You and me.

Let me tell
you something, jp.

- You don't need
to say it.

As long as you plan
on coming through for my kid,

We're straight.
- We got ten minutes.

- All right,
let's hit it.

[phone ringing]

- Price is getting a call.

- Yeah?

- Take him out
of the car.

Show him to me.

- This is crazy.

The guy could take
a shot at any time.

- Satisfied?

- Head to
the abandoned storefront

On ridgeland and roosevelt.

[phone rings]
- [whistles]

Shostak is calling again.

[ringing]

- Yeah?
- Check your texts.

- Get me that text, ruzek.

- Yeah, i'm on it.
- What is it?

- It's a picture.

- It's price's son.

- Do it!
Get your hand off it!

- He's dusting us.

[tires screeching]

[bells ringing]

Damn it!

.

- Hey!
Pull over to the side!

Cpd!
Over to the side, right here!

[train bell dinging]

- All right, go, go, go!

[tires screeching]

- Gimme your phone.

Gimme your gun.

Do it!

- I thought you didn't
kill cops.

- Yeah. Things change.

Don't you move.

Get out of the car.

Stand here.
Stand here.

Put these on.

Do it.

Put 'em on.

[phone rings]

Yeah?

- Lose the phone
and the car.

- All right.

Come here.

Come on.

[horns honking]

Hey! Hey.
Give me the key.

Give him the key right now!

[tires screeching]

I'm in a gold minivan.

- Westbury field.

[tires screech]

- Help! Help!
Police!

- Ma'am, chicago pd.
What happened?

- He came up,
put a gun in my face,

And he took my car.
- What kind of car?

- All i kept thinking was
"oh, lord,

Please don't
take me home today."

- Ma'am!
What kind of car was it?

- Minivan. Gold.
- Which way?

Thank you.

[tires screeching]

- Get out of the car.

Get out of the car.

Get up against the car.

- You really think you're going
to walk away from this?

- Shut up.
He's got my son.

You or him,
not even close.

[number pad beeping]

- [grunting]

- [gasping]

- Get up.

Get up!
Get against the car.

- Don't let him kill my kid.
- Get against the car.

- Don't let him kill
my kid, man.

[numbers beeping]

- Voight, i'm and 103rd
and central near sag channel.

I got a car approaching
500 yards from the north.

It's a red mustang.
I think it's shostak.

- Stand down!
Get out of there!

Halstead is at westbury field,
103rd and central.

- You're going to act
like everything is normal,

Like you're in complete control.
- Yeah. Uh-huh.

- That's how we get
your son back.

- All right.
- Let's go.

- Come on.

- Where's he going?
- What's he doing?

- Where's he going?

[tires screeching]

[tires screeching]

- Show me your hands!

Put them up!

Get out of the car!
Get out of the car.

- Get out!
- Get out!

Down on the ground!
Get down on the ground!

Put your hands behind
your head!

- Hey, lindsay, give me your
cuffs, give me your cuffs.

- Put your hands on the window!
- What's up, shostak?

- No, no, no.
Stay still, stay still.

Keep your head down.

Keep your head down.
Put your head down.

Call an ambulance!

.

- Your son's
going to be fine.

And i'll make sure
his record's sealed.

- Thank you.

- You, you're on your own.

- So i'm going to jail

For doing the right thing.

- Jp.

- Watch your head.

- In about two minutes
i got to meet commander perry

So he can brief
command staff.

You know,
no one out there

Really knows
how we operate...

How we put ourselves
in harm's way.

If they did,
our hands would be tied.

And the worst of the worst
that we hunt down

Would go free.

So when i say
this stays in house,

This stays in house

So we can keep operating
the way we do.

Halstead,
what you did today...

What you did
for this city...

Well, no one will ever know.

But this family knows.

- Cheers to that.

I'm going to molly's
and getting drunk.

Anyone want to join?
- Yeah, i'm in.

- I'm in.

- I want you so bad
right now.

- My place, one hour.

- Hell, yes.
- You have been a bad boy.

- Don't talk to me
like that right now.

Come here.
[muffled knocking]

- Jeff?

- One hour.
- Go.

- [one hour]
- [chuckles]

- You wrote in your card
you wanted to emulate me.

- You know what,
i take it all back, okay?

- Hey.

Tough stuff,
it's a peace offering.

So get over yourself,
and accept it, okay?

So why'd you write that?

Or were you
just kissing ass?

- You love your job.

People respect you.

- You were
the only person

That remembered
it was my birthday.

Even my new boyfriend forgot.
Putz.

- I like birthdays.

I like holidays in general.

- Me too.

You should see
my front yard at christmas.

So just keep your head down
and do your job.

Make people want
to help you.

This is chicago.
Records, priors--

They can have a way
of being expunged,

You know what
i'm saying?

- I do.
- Good.

So this is the last time
i'm going to mention it.

It's up to you now.

- Well, it looks like you'll be
seeing shostak here soon.

Maybe you guys
can be cellies.

You know who else
is here?

The brother
of your late mistress.

Remember him?
This big guy, tons of ink.

Went insane when he found out
you killed his sister.

He's here
on aggravated assault.

He's awaiting trial.

He's over in gen pop.

- I'm not in gen pop.
- Well, you are

As of five minutes ago.

- No, you can't do this.

You can't do this.

You can't do that.
You can't do that!

- It's done.

- Hon, it's erin.

Hey, sweetie.
- Hi, mom.

- Oh my god.
Thanks for coming, erin.

- Congratulations.

- Thank you.

- Listen,
i was thinking um,

Every weekend,
your mother and i,

We have these barbecues.
- Oh! Yeah.

- It's just friends
and the kids,

Anyone who can
stop by really, and

I was wondering if maybe
you could come by sometime.

- Oh, honey, there's lisa.

She gave us
that salad plate.

I really want to
thank her for it.

- Yeah, of course.
- We'll be just a second.

- Okay, but--
- ye--no.

Go enjoy your big day.

- Thank you, honey.

- Do you remember
a couple of months

Before i came to live
with you,

I borrowed 200 bucks?

- Vaguely.

- That was so i could buy
junk for my mom.

Yeah, she--
[chuckles]

She showed back up,

And she was
in withdrawal real bad.

But i couldn't get her a fix
until the morning, like--

Like right before school.

So, i got it to her,

And right
when she injected it,

She puked all over me.

- Mm
- and the city had shut

The water off by then,
so i couldn't take a shower.

And i went to school
like that.

Ugh, just reeked
of booze and vomit.

And the teacher
pulled me aside

'cause she thought
that i had a drinking problem.

And i copped to it

To protect my mom.

Um, anyway, i just uh,

Wanted to say thanks
for taking me in.

You're my family.

- You're about the best thing
ever happened to me.

And i mean that.

[door opens]

- I thought, uh,
paramedics weren't supposed

To follow up on
people they responded to.

- I-i didn't know
that rule.

I'm still new, i guess.

- Is there any update?

- Waiting on one.

Maddie's parents
and her sister are in there.

- You know, i've--i've seen
dead bodies,

And i've seen
people shot in front of me.

But uh...

I've never seen
somebody...

Take a bullet that was
meant for me.

[door opens]

- Alec.

- Okay, uh,
here's the latest.

The bullet severed
the subclavian vein.

The emergency surgery
was to repair the rupture.

Thankfully the bullet
missed the jugular

And the spine.

So she's going to be
in the icu

For at least another week,
but we're very optimistic.

She's going to be okay.
- That's so good to hear.

- Thanks.

- [exhales deeply]
wow, right?

What a relief.
- Yeah, yeah.

- A bunch of folks at 51
are down at molly's

If you wanna join.

We'll raise a beer to maddie.

- Sounds good. Yeah.
I'll see you there.
