After a young Mafia lawyer and his wife are murdered in their home, Cory catches up with the unharmed six year old boy who's on the run with his real mother, a stripper with whom the Mafia lawyer had a previous affair.

than the alternative

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

don't let her get my son

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

you assume she was his mother taking him

to safety not the kidnap that's gonna

help me sleep better at night blame me

I'm the one who let the shooter get away

Cory the place is covered in blood

bullets fingerprints will turn something

up

any news on those plates no they were

stolen this morning must be a million

sedans out here in California asset

description gonna make my nightmare

worse the feds have to clean up my mess

only if it's a kidnap what the hell else

could it be

let's find out the last place he called

Aloha City strip taking it off nightly

[Music]

[Music]

you're welcome this was the best I could

do my sister's kids a little bigger than

him I still think you're nuts you know

you can't hide from them how much money

do you got

you start talking okay then we're dead

err from Angie yet we already had this

conversation

looks like we're having it again

I like it when your graph Johnny I

didn't see the woman's face no one got a

look at the shooter and there were no

weapons recovered look we know that

Enderman Ellie is pretty high-profile

attorney Cruz and Granger on the way to

his firm right now to see if this

related any of his cases I had two

weapons fired only one was used to kill

Andrew and Jeanne Minnelli also there

were two extra blood samples found at

the scene of the crime

I think the kidnapper and the kid cut

themselves I thought we were assuming

this wasn't a kidnapping

you gotta be out of your freakin mind

why because I believed Andrew Minnelli's

partners when they said they don't know

anything

forget about all that I'm talking about

Cory Cory why because she's my sergeant

no because she still remembers the Bee

Gees it's five more years of experience

my friend look I'll be the first one to

admit in the right light McNamara's kind

of high kinda high oh she makes my toes

curl just looking at consider these

words marriage prenuptial mortgage soon

to be followed by headache boring rut

not to mention gravitational pull you've

never been with an older woman have you

sorry I didn't hear that it was thrown

out by the loud tick-tick-tick of a

biological clock kind of sounds like the

bomb doesn't it

word of advice all the women don't like

fear in a guy oh that's it I'm afraid

yeah well you should be

[Music]

cars aren't allowed on the boardwalk mr.

Sorrento why don't you tell me how you

doing on the Minelli murders and I'll

get out of your way why don't you tell

me what your interest is you know we

like to keep our business private as do

we

[Music]

see you didn't inherit your father's

charm crude as it may be I prefer to be

direct as the Minnelli boy turned up yet

nice talking to you what are you so

afraid of not seeing my 25th birthday

I'm not afraid of Sonny Sorrento or his

Muslim but the little boy's life is a

jeopardy here and now so is mine all

right Shawn but when the kidnappers

fingerprints come back I D and you as an

acquaintance of hers

I'll be back too but first I think I had

a little chat with the Sorento's telling

him how you came to me with information

about their operations nice threat but

no matter what you find I know she

didn't kill those people I never said

anything about a murder so you either

start talking or you lawyer up because

I'll charge you as an accessory faster

than you could spin around on that pole

on stage

give me the name

Angela Nash do me a favor and run this

right away sure thing

hey check that out pretty nice huh now

why would the FBI send their top local

guy we don't even know for certain is

this the kidnapping but what exactly do

you know two guns two bodies some

missing child now we're add some note no

apparent motive apparent look my office

is taking over this case

and that means full disclosure from you

so to hell with joint effort and fair

trade officer Granger once you give the

Minelli paperwork agent Faraday here it

appears the FBI is overseeing this case

now I know that's why I already gave the

file to agent Dumont

[Music]

glad to see your officer understands

proper protocol lieutenant

TC Calloway this is agent Trey Dumont

look forward to working with you my

officers are all team players you get

what you give with them thanks for the

coffee

we'll see you boys around you know

lieutenant a lot of what we learned as a

man put the paper yet I know and I

suppose you just forgot to mention that

a major mob boss is taking a very big

interest in this case

[Music]

[Applause]

I'm a police officer and that's st. Jude

hand it over

patron saint of lost causes well I guess

you'd better start praying then huh

Oh Andrew maybe he doesn't like vanilla

everybody likes vanilla he's just being

a little brat

scared and he's tired we all are we just

can't keep running like this Angela do

you know what the charges are for taking

a cop hostage add that to the Minelli

murders I told you that I can kill them

the only question now is who are you

gonna demand the ransom from ransom you

think that I'm a kidnapper

what do you think you're going it's her

do you wanna get yourself killed

huh what is it my mom and dad what are

you looking at you you two have matching

medallions just trust my daddies

Angela do Andrew Minelli give you that

[Music]

all right

[Music]

the pictures start to McNamara said to

all divisions ASAP I can't believe I

better come alone out here obviously

someone to the same idea she did but

luckily there's no signs of violence so

for now we'll just go into the

assumption she was taken hostage so who

else would have motor to return it and

why blood as in relations turns out that

Andrews wife was formerly Gina Gambini

daughter of Don Carlo Gambino he just

ID'd her body missing kid is ma blood

there's no one bigger on family I'll get

him back at any cost do you think angela

nash knew how valuable the boy was only

one way to find out but one of our

family and with theirs congratulations

welcome to the family I just got a job

at a skin joint I don't know if that's

the appropriate sentiment sound like my

friend Angie but trust me once the

greenbacks start rolling in so to the

rationalisations yeah but how much cash

can i really make carrying drinks you

work the floor right get the customers

to want you more than their cocktails

Johnny I'll have you up on that stage in

no time hmm so what is this Johnny's

sermon don't look like anyway tall dark

and mine

you better get changed that one's taken

[Music]

find his holiness how he got to be that

way and that the Lord likes hypocrites

even less than I do so he should insult

me by refusing to do the funeral

services tell him I'll see that he

repents urgent family business I

apologize I had no idea you were such a

religious man Donna Sorrento and let's

face it lieutenant you know very little

about me except what goes down the blue

line of gossip there is something I know

that not many others do

Johnny Sorrento wasn't your only son of

course he is

that's only because your other son

Andrew Minnelli was just killed that

information was well hidden what tipped

you off visit I'm your firstborn son

johnny is very emotional please

lieutenant tell me about my grandson

first why don't you tell me about his

father

my wife died right after Andrew was born

but not before I promised that he'd be

different and you thought a new name

would do that sometimes a name is

everything to a man and he had it all

good looks good heart brilliant mind

Harvard Law no hope from his old man not

that I didn't try so his legal practice

totally legit tell me about Andy jr.

we're fairly certain that his abductor

was one of your strippers Angela Nash

what I was hoping is that you could tell

me what her interest was I promise I'll

make it worth your while

just don't let the feds get this case

away from you they always have their own

agendas

tell me something sunny why haven't you

asked me if I have any leads on who

committed the murders sixes you already

know who did it find my grandson needs

his family

[Music]

she needs real food he needs rest

you think I'm a cold-hearted [ __ ] down

you know I think you're scared and I

think you're desperate

you're also not thinking clearly

look Angela I'm more valuable to you as

an ally not a hostage man Andy Andy wake

up it's okay it was just a nightmare you

all right no I'm not that's you came

with the pumpkin man no Andy I swear go

home are you taking me home

[Music]

Andy

I miss my mom too where is she

she's in heaven and she's right beside

me you see when someone loves you that

much they're always with you even if I

can't see

pity like you

did the pumpkin man hurt her he came

from MTV with a gun Andy did you see him

he shot her while I was in the closet oh

honey look the pumpkin man's not gonna

hurt you I promise okay

shoot me if you have to but I'm getting

this poor kid out of here you don't

think I won't do it

[Music]

[Music]

don't you ever do that again do you hear

me don't you ever run away from me again

we gotta get out of here

now

[Music]

come on

Monica what civilized people don't knock

anymore they also don't search through

other people's lockers you want to tell

me what the hell you were doing trying

on the only thing that isn't New Jersey

you're a cocktail waitress which makes

you a fool because I'm much more

fashionable with my clothes off

[Music]

you make a very persuasive argument

[Music]

you really think Minelli was doing

Angela Nash I guess so

probably mad at daddy strip club huh the

check Angela Nash's apartment any sign

of them

well not then demolition crew they

turned the place over pretty good she

wrote those boys that back

it's Anna Callaway I speak with you a

minute yeah won't you give me a moment

let me know when the blood work gets

back in Angela national boy what are we

looking for

family ties I don't believe this falls

under your jurisdiction

agent Dumont no but the Minelli case

does I thought you understood that

please I'm Way too tired to read between

the lines tonight well let me clarify I

know you've been withholding from the

bureau had you had any proof of that

your boss agent Faraday would be down

here instead unless I wanted you to keep

withhold Faraday belongs to Sonny

Sorrento so let me get this straight you

want us to send all our Intel straight

to you

there's my station house

[Music]

this is a good idea I trust lieutenant

with my life what about my son your son

what the hell's going on your officer

just spied on a federal agent lieutenant

as well as endangered a minor all too

apparently a tower suspect

oh that's a load cruise if you don't

issue the arrest warrant I will

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

you promised me we'd be safe and we will

be look I know a place where I can

protect you and your you and Andy but

I'm gonna need something from you in

return

if I've had green eyes and I know not

money the truth all of it

[Music]

hey bus it's like we got a company I'm

gonna call the Welcome Wagon I got this

I'm guessing this is business but for

your sake I hope it's pleasure listen

god you're gonna tell us everything you

know about Angela Nash she's a natural

brunette

OPSEC Rose they employ to settle down

there Calloway

why don't I buy you guys a drink once

just tell us where you were about a half

an hour ago been here all night

oh yeah so if I check your hands and

your clothes for gunpowder residue you'd

be disappointed

so you had nothing to do it all with

that little reenactment of the okay

Corral outside my station tonight sounds

dangerous anybody hurt you no Sorrento I

thought maybe we were on the same side

this time unfortunately all cooperation

was forfeited the moment you and your

father failed to mention that Angela

Nash was the boy's natural mother you

should never play poker

are they all right yeah fine

he should never play poker either

anybody here relax Bobby it's just me

Cory where have you been what the hell

is going on

it's kind of a long story Andrew

Minnelli was the best man I'd ever known

he'd talked to you the same whether you

were a stripper or a movie star he was

engaged to Gina when we met I just

thought I guess I was kidding myself and

since she couldn't have a child and they

took mine you say that like you had no

choice

please my life has been a cliche from

being a wild kid on the wrong side of

the hill - Sonny Sorrento making me an

offer that I just couldn't refuse

[Music]

and they were right Gina was a better

mother than I could have been back then

I was so young what about now I'm gonna

make this kid the best thing I've ever

done with my life

lieutenant you know that FBI guy the

good-looking one agent Faraday yeah well

they still here at the club and he's

getting really wasted interesting Monica

once you find out why you got it

[Music]

[Music]

dance for you not tonight

come on help a working girl pay her rent

now that's an honest approach well you

have an honest face yeah you very very

beautiful and you are very drunk very

friend thought this would help but he's

still dead it's the boys missing

so after they killed Andrew why didn't

you just split town with any junior the

whole story remember I know Andrew left

Andy inheritance and clean untraceable

cash but you don't know where it is

sigh Andrew and I met law school and if

it wasn't for him I'd probably be

flipping burgers somewhere hmm

there's no talking on the clock she's

with me John yeah I know that now that

Andrews going it's up to me to take care

of you I thought I was doing that you

watch yourself like he you want a

morning through not following his

footsteps

[Music]

you must have clout do you work for the

Sorrento's supposed to be enemies but as

Andrew we respect each other I don't

like a family that doesn't get along you

cop no no no I don't think so

most of the cops around here pretty lame

you might you say that well I heard they

don't even have a clue who could have

killed your friend

that's cuz he's supposed to be one of

the good guys

[Music]

[Music]

I'm so glad you're safe

[Music]

and why

I'll never hurt you coy

[Music]

this is that same Bobby

[Music]

we both come with so much baggage just

one more reason we understand each other

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

looks like that creep the mountain was

read about his boss being dirty huh shut

your mouth put your hands inside the car

and enjoy the ride

seems that Faraday's not dirty in fact

he's a friend of no ace he didn't kill

her but the the killing bullet was from

a better issued weapon

well the I was pretty ripped but what I

can piece together sounds that another

agent tried to extort millie threatened

to expose this mob background Jomon open

fired on Corey tonight without witnesses

Rebecca go back tell TC to follow des

monts every move tell him I trust

Faraday

[Music]

Wow you can even cook my gum I'm sorry

about last night I just didn't think

that we should you know you were right

the timing was wrong one day it won't be

once you serve our company um good

morning thanks for the shirt um I'll

make sure that I give it keep it that

looks good on you Angela um last night

Bobby and I tried to figure out the

significance of the numbers on Andy's

medallion locker number bank account pen

code safe combination and address I had

a safe what did you just say where is it

under my house my plants

Angela sit tight with Andy the money's

there we'll be back in 30 minutes tops

look you got to know you can trust me by

now

[Music]

you'd better be good news

or save until I've killed this Hangul

it's been enough killing already but

there'll be more unless you tell me why

Demont had to waste Andrew Minnelli

she's a joke an educated guess

considering Demont tried to convince me

that you're dirty you get his weapon

I'll bet it's a match for the murders do

you think I knew something about this I

think they had you acted professionally

instead of personally Andrew Minelli

might still be alive

don't let your guilt get you in more

trouble agent Faraday I'm not looking

for that get what you looking for

first confirmation from what I've been

able to put together de menthe figured

out that Andrew Minelli was really a

Sorento a little more digging showed him

that Minelli was working for the mob in

addition to his high profile legit cases

so Demont threatened to expose him

unless he paid up and instead of going

to his family for help Andrew came to me

but somehow de menthe found out about it

I got my best friend killed lieutenant

Callaway we both know what would have

happened had you gone to your superiors

at the bureau about agent Dumont I would

have had to tell him Andrew Minnelli was

really Andrew Sorrento and then they

would have pressured him into spying on

his family I just don't think I could

have played it differently game's not

over

[Music]

give me a hand with this

[Music]

oh he wasn't kidding 14 I wonder how

much inheritance this really is don't

even second 22 last number 51 I'm sorry

guys but a million bucks in the hands of

two civil servants that isn't trust is

insanity

[Music]

you gotta be kidding me

he look like he has a sense of humor top

enjoy following me actually you move

pretty quick on that two-wheeler I'm

impressed

wish I could say the same but I'm just

trying to figure out whether you're

really that stupid or just a slow

learner maybe your father could give me

a little insight Don Sorento my father

needs to relax you can talk to me your

father needs to know how you gonna get

his grandson killed hey pop shut up Joe

tell are you talking about lieutenant

I'm talking about trying to do my job

while tripping over amateurs every step

of the way how can you put your faith in

this guy pop when one of his own

officers is out there with Angela and

Andy jr. you don't think they're gonna

take that money and split if they

haven't already

what money Megan in cash half of that

would be a lot even for the most ethical

officer Cory McNamara is risking her

life to save your grandsons from a

murderer whose identity you've known all

along maybe had you shared that info

with me Liv Landy might be safe right

now

Johnny please give me a moment that

wasn't a question

we just recently learned that it was

that dirtbag Dumont perhaps it was a

mistake not coming to you you don't make

mistakes down sorrento accepted johnny

and his soldiers almost got your

grandson killed in the crossfire

I see Johnny never told you that I don't

understand

and Esau Demont killing his mother that

makes him a loose end and that is why my

officer hasn't brought him back in yet

you can't expect me to sit on the

sidelines while my own flesh and blood

hangs in a shooting gallery twelve hours

without interference after that your

people stay out of the way

you're making a big mistake Angie stop I

know what I'm doing you would only shoot

them I would do whatever it takes to

keep them from taking your money you

wouldn't do that would you

of course not sweetie I'm grateful for

everything you've done okay

I truly won't forget it now come on Andy

we got to go you've come too oh honey I

can't I'm sorry but my dad says to learn

what the money makes the decisions and I

want you to come look Andy we'll always

be your friends okay

fine Angela loves you she take real good

care of you

Andy we gotta go now no you pretended to

be their friends when you lied

my dad says never trust a liar they only

get you in trouble Andy

this is what pv1 dispatch had like

anyone we have a 1039 in those traffic

stops have been detained in are being

questioned with Kenneth

[Applause]

tell you this but I loved that little

boy and I intend to begin adoption

proceedings

well my blood runs in his veins mr.

Sorrento that boy's mother died in my

arms and just as you made a promise to

your wife I made a promise to Angela to

raise that child the way she and Andrew

would have wanted and that's not

possible in your world even as we're

speaking Andy jr. is leaving social

services for his new home what if I

fight you my passion is in the right

place I respect that but when you calm

down you'll realize how futile and

how foolish that could be so to fill

your need for victory you're gonna have

that poor child end up like your uncle

Johnny or even his father this has

nothing to do with victory you obviously

have no children or you would understand

that I'll tell you this I owe you a

favor you owe me nothing
