So what are we doing, Milo?

You have something I want.

And I have something you want.

I still don't know
what we're talking about.

I hear my bonds have found
their way into police custody.

If the KPD have my paper,
then you can get it for me.

What's in it for me?

Your girl.

Well, technically
my girl, but...

I'll sell her to you
for $14 million.

You get the bonds and
get the fuck out of town.



Nobody wants to be here.

I stay for the money.

I know you found it for me.

You should leave too, Mike.

You should get out of Kingstown.

Take the girl.

Don't take the girl.
That part is of no consequence.

You get my paper.
I'll get your Iris.

But if you have ideas of...

other arrangements
or I'm betrayed by you,

I won't just kill you, Mike.

Know that.

Someone will be in touch.

Hey, what's good?



Hey, Dad!

Don't open for 15, big man.

Oh, I'm sorry, my bad.
Uh, I'll come back later?

No sweat, pal.
Come on in and look around.

I'll be right with you.

Thank you, sir.
Appreciate that.

Mm.

What are you looking for?

That's a pretty-looking Sig.

Yeah.

That's 799 plus tax.

799?

It's a .10 millimeter.

Hm.

- You mind if I take a look?
- No, please, handle it.

Fill out the paper now,
I'll call in your ID,

get you cleared.

And you're walking
out of here with it

before we're officially open.

Boy, it's pretty.

I'mma call my wife and check.

You know how it is, right?

I do, I do, I do.

Let's see.

Hey, baby.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm looking at it right now.

Uh-huh.

Yeah.

It's beautiful.

Baby, it's real beautiful.

Hands up, motherfucker.

Not a fuckin' muscle,
big fella, all right?

Chill. You too.

This shit ain't worth
dying over, okay?

Now, pieces on the counter.

Two fingers. Two fingers.

All right, side holsters,

and whatever you're
rockin' on your ankles.

You too! You too!

Got it.

All right.

You get that shit.

Get it.

799 my ass!

Come on, let's go!

All right, we got enough.
Let's go.

We got it!

Let's roll, baby.

I'll meet you there.
Yeah, how about that?

Look...

Hold on a second.

Holy shit.

Uh, Trace, let me call you...
I'll call you back, okay?

I gotta go.
Mike just walked in.

I love you. All right.
Fuck.

Hey!

- Hey.
- Hey, what the fuck?

- How are ya doin'?
- Oh my god, come here.

Oh, shit.

- You okay?
- Yeah. Yeah, I'm here.

- I'm here.
- Fuck, Mike.

Everybody was lookin' for ya.

Jesus.

I gotta call off
the search party.

Yeah.

I saw Milo.

No shit.

We made a deal.

Whoa, what... Ok-Okay.

He's got Iris.

Yeah, I know.

What do you mean you know?

I saw her, Mike.
I called you.

Where did you fuckin' see her?

- At the club.
- What the fuck?

What are you doing
at the club, Kyle?

Lookin' for Milo.
I left you a message.

What!?

What the fuck did I tell you?

Don't go around
fucking being a hero.

- Aw, fuck...
- You can't be

walkin' into that fuckin' place,
lookin' for fuckin' Milo.

Hold on a second!

I don't know how
this became about me,

because I'm pretty sure
you're the one who disappeared,

and now you're
walkin' in here saying

- you made a deal with Milo?
- Yeah, I did.

You gonna tell me what
the fucking deal is or what?

It's the bonds for Iris.
Simple.

Fuck. Oh...

I just want this
motherfucker out of town.

I want him the fuck
out of our lives.

What is she to you, Mike?

I don't know.

I want her to get away.

I know that.

Away from Milo.

Away from this fucking town.

That's what I want.

Okay.

Then let's fuckin' do it.

Yeah.

Did you call Ma?

I just got the phone.

Right, call her.

I mean, everybody was
lookin' for you, Mike.

Everybody was worried.

You know, and I had
Bunny making sure

that nobody put a dot
on you from the inside.

Gotta get fucking Bunny out.

He's out, Mike.

Michael, are you all right?

Yep. All good.

Oh, I just called and called.
I'm so glad you're okay.

Yeah, I know, I'm sorry.

Do you remember
the boy I told you about?

Yup.

They weren't gonna move him
for a few days, they said.

And then all of a sudden,
they just moved him.

Well, sometimes
that happens, Mom.

Honey, if you're able,
he really needs your help.

All right, I'll try.

His name is Jacob Reed.

Jacob Reed. I got it.

I'm so glad you're okay.

Thank you, Mom.

Starting to like
the radio silence, Mike.

Yeah, me too.

You calling to gloat
about Bunny getting out?

What happened there?

It came from the DA's office.

I figured that meant
it came from you.

He just walked out, huh?

Yeah, he just walked out,

just like you planned.

Well, Mexican's dead.

Looks like all you have left
is the Blood and the AB boss,

and then your
experiment is finished.

Was it worth it?

Well, I don't know yet.

Hey listen, man, I need a favor.

It's, uh... It's not
really our relationship.

I know, I hate to ask.

But, uh, it's important.

There's this kid,
Jacob Reed, over at Anchor.

He's 18, juvie, getting
transferred to gen pop today.

Uh, he's getting
a lot of AB pressure,

and I wanna get the
kid out of the woods

'til I find him
somewhere permanent.

And who's this kid to you?

It's a favor for my mom.

Okay, I'll try to find him.

Appreciate it.

Thanks!

Fuck. What?

Mikey, listen.

I need you to get to the fucking
gun shop on Bonner, all right?

You're gonna wanna see this.

Well, am I really, though, Ian?

Every time I'm gonna
wanna see this,

I get fucking blood on my shoes.

Listen to me,
there's no blood yet,

but there's about to be.

Jesus.

Where ya been?

Taking a me day.

These fuckers,
they scored an arsenal here.

They cleaned out the whole shop.

I wouldn't have
fuckin' called you,

honest to god, but...

the shopkeeper says
it's a 300-pound,

6'4, charismatic motherfucker.

Now, does that sound
like anybody you know?

Yeah.

Jesus.

What about surveillance?

Trashed it.

I didn't even know
Bunny was out.

I know he's your guy...

but we will grind him
into the fucking ground,

deal or no deal.
I don't give a shit.

If they try us, we will
grind them into the dirt.

Yeah, let me talk
to him, all right?

You can't handle shit
on the street, Mike.

Yeah, no shit, right?

He's gearing up
for a fucking war here.

You gotta listen to me.

A goddamn war.

Yeah, look, I'll-I'll
talk to him, all right?

Mike, you're not hearing me.

We should be fucking
picking him up right now.

Yeah, like I said,
let me handle it, okay?

Just fucking relax.

We got to deescalate this shit.
All right?

We got enough on our plate
with Robert and the DA,

and a whole laundry list
of things...

Robert thing...
Robert thing went away.

Went away.

- What do you mean it went away?
- It went away!

The fucking DA dumped it.
I don't know.

Maybe you got through to
Morrissey, I don't know.

It's gone.

You fucking kidding me?

Sometimes you just
leave shit alone

it'll go away on its own.

Napoleon used to not answer his
fucking letters for two weeks.

You know that?

- What?
- True story.

At war, on the front,

wouldn't answer his
letters for two weeks.

He figured if it was still
important enough to be a thing

after two weeks,
he'd deal with it.

- I don't got two weeks.
- You're not an emperor.

Well, you're an asshole,
wasting my fucking time...

- Hey...
- Jesus Christ, man.

Thank you for
picking up the phone.

Yeah, sure thing.

- Hey.
- Not now, Mike.

- I called your office.
- Jesus Christ.

- All right?
- Follow me.

- I tried calling you.
- Yeah, you look like hell.

- Okay.
- Have you slept?

I'll sleep when this is over.

- What do you want, Mike?
- I want to thank you.

For Robert. For Bunny.

I mean, we owe a couple more,
but Bunny's a good start.

- Are you kidding me?
- No.

You think I did that?

You think that after what
you did, after Lockett...

You think I would...
That I could do anything

to help you and the monsters
that you're in bed with?

That wasn't me.

That was your fucking
girlfriend at Warwick.

I didn't have anything
to fucking do with that.

If I am lucky enough
to get elected

to fill the seat that
I am currently sitting in,

I am gonna spend
my days and nights

trying to stop you and yours

from driving this town
into the fucking ground.

Fuck, Mike, you talk
about restoring order.

Your SWAT buddy
kills with impunity!

And the one fucking guy
who calls him out

is... surprise,
surprise... winds up dead

before he can
testify against him.

Who are you talking about?

The inmates are running
the asylum, Mike,

and you're the one
giving them the goddamn key.

Get some rest, Mike.

I feel like it's gonna be
a long fight ahead.

You missed the party.

- Welcome back.
- Yeah, yeah.

So you're out less
than 24 hours,

get yourself a new fuckin' toy.

You clean out a gun shop
in the middle of the day?

Is that right?

Gotta protect my throne, Mike.

You know, heavy lies
the crown and shit?

- Bunny.
- Listen...

I appreciate you keeping
your word and all.

But dropping me back
into that world, Mike?

A mu'fucka starts
to see some shit.

Start getting clear about the
who's, the what's, the why's...

You're talking in code, Bunny.

Just say what you gotta say.

I'm saying me and you,
we square, right?

We good.

But there's a toll
gotta be paid,

still,

for them brothers that
got done in them riots.

Bunny...

we talked about
this already, right?

The riot, that
shit's in the past.

Okay?

Pickin' at scabs,

it's only gonna prevent
the wound from healing.

Ain't no healin', Mike.

Them scar tissue gonna
be there no matter what.

I'm lookin' for that
big game on my mantle.

Yeah.
I want that wrecking ball, Mike.

I want that SWAT mu'fucka.

Jesus Christ, Bunny.

That dude, he-he be givin'
innocent folks nightmares

about them doors getting
kicked in for no reason, Mike.

All right!
I understand that. I get it.

But you can want that, right?

Just want that!

Don't fucking do it.

Think about it!

They'll scorch this
fucking place, Bunny!

They'll turn your neighborhood
into a fucking parking lot.

Them boys already
scorched it, Mike.

Shit, that's how it is out here.

If you gonna give, hey,

you better be
prepared to get, baby.

I can't let you do that.

I ain't asking you
to let me do shit.

Bunny, if you want
to fucking reach for that,

you're starting a fight
that you do not want,

I promise you.

And you think you know
what the fuck I want?

Thought I did.

Not on fucking break, people!

On the clock. On the clock.

Hey, hey, hey.

Hey, quit fucking around!

Let's go!

Fuck! Fuck! Man!

Yeah.

Yeah, Carney, I'll tell him.

No, I don't wanna know
the fucking details, okay?

Just...

Jesus Christ, enough.

I've got it!

Look, I gotta go.
I'll call him. I'll tell him.

Yeah.

Dinner.

Shit, I'm so sorry.

I was, um...

I was helping a client,

and then I got wrapped up
with the paperwork and stuff.

Turns out I'm actually good
with the math, though, so...

got that goin'.

Do you wanna go
to the restaurant?

Let's-Let's go.
I can go right now.

I figured you'd
probably be hungry.

Yeah.

Thanks, um...

I'm s... I'm sorry.

You know, Kyle, I really
needed to talk to you

at dinner tonight.

Okay.

About what?

I think I'm gonna go to
my dad's place for a bit.

What? Why?

Dad's doing some PT
and he needs help.

And, um...

Everything's a little
too crazy right now.

And I need...

I need to get away from it.

All of it.

For a minute.

Like, just for a minute?

I mean, what are
we talking about?

You can come with me,
if you want.

I can't, Tracy.
I can't.

All right.

Couldn't hurt to ask.

Trace...

I'll call you when
I get to Jersey.

Trace!

Tracy, come on!

Tracy!

- Yeah?
- Yo.

I'm on my way there.

Everything all right?

Yeah, not really.

But, um...

Yeah, everything's fine.

Um, hey, listen.

Um, Carney called
about, uh, Mom's kid.

You know, the AB kid?

Kareem told them to...

Yeah, he got him?

Nah, he's dead, Mike.

Kid killed himself.

Fuck.

Yeah, so...

Anyway, I'll see ya.

Hey, do you have a hot date?

They're all too young.

What?

- So the prison called.
- About Jacob.

- Yeah.
- Uh-huh.

Oh.

They couldn't move him?

The kid killed himself.

Oh.

How?

- You don't wanna know.
- I need to know.

He laid underneath a truck.

You know, I, um...

I-I don't know why
he was in prison.

He could've killed somebody.

It doesn't matter.

He-He said to me, um...

he had a baby.

A baby boy.

He was barely more
than a boy himself.

You help yourself, honey.

I can't stay, Mom.

Doesn't matter.

Fuck.

Here we go.

Yeah.

Hello, it's Mike.

Hey, Mike.

How are you doing?

Could use a night on a boat.

You?

Same.

Trouble sleeping?

Not more than usual.

Are you okay?

Healthy?

I'm fine, Mike.

I wanna see you.

Oh.

Okay.

When and where?

Tomorrow.

Midnight.

The park off 20 Mile Road.

Under the arch by the trestle.

Okay, got it.

Iris?

You're almost there.

Mike, you gotta get Bunny
to quit bullshittin'

and play fucking ball.

This is how we start the day.
Is that it?

Okay, look.
You expect Bunny

just to cough over
fuckin', like,

a quarter million
dollars' worth of guns?

You want fuckin'
peace on the street?

You get him to get those
guns back to us fuckin' now.

All of them, all right?

Because he's asking for war,
and I'll tell you something.

ATF's just the
fuckin' start here.

All right, I get it.

Give me a minute.

- What's the word, fellas?
- Talk to you a second?

- Yeah, what's up?
- Yeah, uh...

Did you fucking do it?

Do what?

Morris is dead.

You're off the hook.
Yeah.

Did you fucking kill him?

What the fuck, Mike?

It's a simple fucking question.

No. Fuck no.

Do you think that
I would just... I mean, that's...

I just need you to
look me in the fucking eye

and tell me that
you didn't do it, okay?

I need to fucking know that.

Fuck you.

That's a fucked-up thing
to say to somebody.

Is it?

Yeah, we're supposed
to be fucking friends.

Fuck you.

That's fucked up, Mike.

I have to ask.

Gee, that's twice
in two days, man.

People gonna talk.

It's you and me, alone.

Yeah, I'm a little out
of your weight class, homie.

Nah, just two minutes.
Come on.

Clock's tickin', man.
What you got for me?

I need the guns.

- Say what?
- All of them.

The ATF is coming.

You've got the
attention of people

whose attention you do not want.

So give me the guns.
I'll drop them on their porch.

No questions, no tape.

Make sure there's
no prints on 'em.

You're clean.

You think I'm dumb enough
to leave prints on that shit?

Shit, that's why
God made Nu-Skin, baby.

Yeah.

Listen, Bunny.

I know I tested our
shit putting you inside.

I know that you were
in there longer than...

You put me in a
fuckin' hole, Mike.

I trusted people
I shouldn't have.

Yeah.

Yeah, I feel that.

You want them guns?

I need all of them.

All right, well...

you already know what I want.

You can't have that.

But you ain't the king, Mike.

What the king wants,
the king gets.

This is Robert.
Leave a message.

Robert! It's me.

Call me back as soon
as you get this.

I'm spending my own money.

I bought you.

For three hours.

Fuck you.

That's the start!

I bought you like
a fucking pair of shoes!

Now... I'm going to wear you out.

You're nothing!
Remember that.

You're only what I
fucking tell you you are.

Fucking bitch!

And when you are tired
fighting, then we can fuck.

Come on.
What the fuck is happening?

This is Kyle.
Leave a message.

Kyle, it's me.

You seen Robert?

I need to get to him.

How could you not
fucking tell me that?

I don't know, I'm just saying
I didn't fuckin' tell ya.

I didn't tell anybody.

- Hey, you guys seen Robert?
- Mikey, hey!

Probably at the fucking gym.

Or at his kid's recital.

Kid's gonna be a fucking
professional ballerina.

Ballerino.

Fucking find him, all right?

Just fucking find him.

- Tell him to stay inside.
- Yeah.

- That simple.
- What is it, Mike?

Call his fucking wife,

go to his house,
do something, all right?

Just find him.

Answer your fucking phones too!

Come on, pick up.

What's up, buddy?

You phoning to apologize
for calling me a piece of shit?

Where are you?

That's not a very good
tone for a fuckin' apology.

I'm at the fuckin' gym.

Jesus fucking Christ!
Motherfucker!

You have a fucking X on you!

Where the fuck are you?
Exact location.

They're on me.

I'm at the Industrial Park
near Shepherd.

Send an ambulance there,
or a fucking hearse.

I'm sending PD.

Robert?

Hi.

Fuck! Robert.

Hey, hey!
