Rookie Blue (2010–2015): Season 1, Episode 11 - To Serve or Protect - full transcript

("I Know What I Am"
by Band of Skulls playing)

It's common decency.

You want to file a police report,
you put on some pants.

I mean, is that so much to ask?

Ugh! Well, at least he c--
he could've closed

- his bathrobe or somethin'.
- Ugh.

And, dude, that thing on his stomach?

- What was that?
- I don't know.

- A tattoo or-- or a birthmark?

I-- I don't know.
I was trying not to look.

You know, people gotta learn
to respect the uniform.



- I mean, we're cops.
- Yeah.

We got training.
We got vests.

- Yeah. Hey, Dov?
- We got guns--

Did you leave the squad running?

# But I know what I am,
they know what they are #

# So let me be #

- Hey!
- # But it's all right #

# It's okay, I got... #

Check the car! I got him!

- # It's all right... #
- Damn, he locked it!

# I got the time,
but the time don't pay #

# It's all right, it's okay #

# I got the time,
but the time don't pay #

# It's all right, it's okay #



Stop! Police!

Where'd he go?

You gotta be kidding me.

(Dov) I said don't move!

(Chris) Seriously, man, come down!

# I know what I am,
they know what they are #

# So let me be,
I know what I am... #

So... how do we call this one in?

# They know what they are,
so let me be #

# I know what I am #

(siren wailing in distance)

# I know what I am,
they know what they are #

# So let me be,
I know what I am #

# I know what I am,
they know what they are #

# So let me... #

Dad?

Hey.

Dad?

(sighs)

(Chris, on recording) This is car 1505--
Well, not actually car 1505.

Uh, Dispatch, this is Officer Diaz.

I'm here with Officer Epstein.

We're, uh... we're locked out
of the squad car.

(woman on radio) Repeat, 1505.
Did you say, "Locked out"?

Affirmative. Uh, we were
in pursuit of-- well, sort of--

(Dov) No, no. No, don't.

(Chris) Male, 6 feet,

wearing, well, kind of dressed
like a superhero.

(laughing) Not really
your finest moment, was it?

I'm not playing this to embarrass you two,

although that doesn't bother me much.

I'm playing it to emphasize a point.

Yeah, there's a reason your mittens
need string, Epstein.

That, and that everyone makes mistakes.

But we are not everyone.

We're coppers,
held at a higher standard.

Without the respect and trust
of the community,

we can't do our jobs.

So that pretty much means...
Williams?

(chair wheels roll)

Don't leave your keys
in the car, dumb-ass.

All right, let's get out there.

Serve, protect,
and don't be a hero.

(indistinct conversations)

(Dov) Great.
We're officially those rookies.

(laughing) Oh, what?
Now it's official?

(laughs sarcastically)
Hilarious.

So what? It was a simple mistake.

We left the keys in the squad.

Well, technically,
you left the keys in the squad car.

Well, how were you guys
supposed to know

that Batman wanted to borrow it?

Yeah, doesn't he have his own car?

(laughing)
That's what I thought.

McNally, Interview One, now.

Okay. I'll see you in a second.

- Oh, hey! (laughs)
- (chuckles)

(door closes)

You left early this morning.

Yeah, well, I had to drop some stuff off
at my dad's place.

How is he?

Good. He's the same.

You know, why don't we, uh,

why don't we take him out for dinner
this week?

Sure.

Yeah, let me just check and see,
uh, if he's free.

Roster says that you're paired
with Swarek today.

Since when do you check the roster?

Eh, I just want to know
who's got your back.

(chuckles)

Make sure you come home tonight.

I will.

Get outta here.

(door closes)

So you and Callaghan--

back in the saddle, huh?

- So to speak.
- Yep. We are.

- Things are good?
- Things are good.

So why the "but" face?

What?

Things are good with Callaghan, but...

Uh... but I don't think he trusts me yet.

- Why not?
- Oh, I don't know.

Might have something to do
with the fact that I lied to him

about what happened with us.

You didn't lie. You just...

didn't tell him the truth.

Try that again?

You were protecting him.

I get that.
Some guys have fragile egos.

Oh, but not you.

Nope.

So where are we headed?

Memorial.
Gotta take a statement.

Hmm. I didn't see that on the--

It's not. It's a favor. Monica called.

Monica? Really?

Hmm.

(police radio chatter)

(indistinct conversations,
telephones ringing)

Hey, Wonder Twins, get over here.

Yeah, okay. All right. Give it to us.
We're ready.

You know, believe or not,

riding your backs
is not the only thing I live for,

and neither is cleaning up your mess.

This, uh...
the guy-- "The Guardian"?

He has a website?

He has a website and a fan club.

There's a whole underground
of real-life superheroes.

But I can understand
why you couldn't catch him.

Here, look here. You probably just
forgot to check his status update.

"The Guardian is running from cops,
hiding in alley."

(sighs) We can catch him now.

Now hold on.

You guys got other things to deal with.

Inventory check of your squad
just came back.

Yeah, we checked.
Nothing was taken.

Yeah, except for some info.

Tech says that the computer
was accessed

during the time
that your car was, um, what?

Unattended.

That's what he was doing in there.

Okay, and here is what
he was searching for.

Shaun Hudson.

He has four convictions for possession,

two with intent to distribute.

Uh, he's suspected of being
his, uh, neighborhood's main supply,

but the Drug Squad
can't make anything stick.

They have him listed
as "one to watch."

So, apparently,
The Guardian is watching him, too.

- So?
- So...

Somebody needs to go
and warn Mr. Hudson here

that because of their
bonehead mistake,

he, uh, he may actually be
in danger from a known vigilante.

We have to warn a drug dealer?

Yeah, it's a crazy world, isn't it?
FYI, Epstein,

these little pouches
on the sides of your pants--

when, uh... you take
the keys out of the ignition,

stick 'em in there.

Her name's Tamara Kwan.
Came in a few hours ago.

Cracked wrist, dislocated shoulder.

She wouldn't say what happened,

and she didn't want me to call anyone.

Rape kit?

Said she didn't need one, but...

(sighs) this girl's scared.

She's ready to be discharged,
but she doesn't seem to want to go.

So she wants to talk?

Thanks for coming.

What makes you think
she's gonna talk to us?

Somebody's hanging around,

usually means they got
something to say.

(Sam) So you'd been out
with some friends,

and you were on your way home?

Waiting for a bus
over at Brock and Dundas.

It was really cold, and, uh...

the bus was taking forever.

Uh, the guy who offered you a ride--

can you tell us what he looked like?

Brown hair...

a little older...

but, like...

really good-looking... (sighs)
and well-dressed,

so I guess I trusted him.

But he didn't take you straight home.

He said that he wanted
to cut through Cedarvale Park...

"because it was such a nice night."

And, uh...

next thing I know, we're pulled over.

(crying)
And he's on top of me.

And then I tried to--
I tried to fight him off,

but I couldn't.

And then I saw headlights.

Another car pulled up?

Then he kind of let go of me
for a second,

so I opened the door, and I ran.
I just kept going.

He has my purse and my wallet.

(crying)
And even after I got away,

I think that he tried to kill me.

Why, he ran after you?

As I took off, I heard gunshots.

That's weird.

That's the car.

Why is it still here?

Hey, I got Tamara's purse.

You think the guy just got spooked
by the other car

and took off running?

Somethin' like that.

Didn't get very far.

(police radio chatter)

(siren wails)

Duct tape, knife--

looks like this guy
had a big night planned

before he got shot.

Tamara must've had
a guardian angel.

You can say that again.

Nice find.
Shot six times in the chest.

- Looks to be a .38 or a 9.
- Six shots.

- Mm-hmm.
- Somebody wanted him dead.

You're pretty sure it wasn't
our girl in the hospital?

I don't think so. I mean,

she was pretty scared
that he'd be coming after her.

Got an ID?

Name is...
Kal-ci-ak, Trevor J.

- Kaliciak? Can I see that?
- Yeah.

You know him?

Yeah, from five or six years ago.

Suspect from one of your dad's old cases.

My dad?

Yeah. A rape and murder.

You know, Andy,
maybe we can call your dad,

see if he can help us out.

Yeah, Luke, I-- I really don't think
that today's a very good day to--

I mean, if he's worked Kaliciak before,

he can help us put together
a line of suspects.

Yeah. Um...

Uh, McNally and I
can head over there right now,

talk to him, see if he can
give us any leads, yeah?

That'd be great. Let me know
if he comes up with anything relevant.

(Sam) You got it.

Thank you.

When we tell this guy,
he's gonna be ticked.

You think he'll try something?

Pfft, let's hope.

Chris, we're cops.

All we gotta do is
square our shoulders,

look Hudson straight in the eyes
and apologize.

This is ridiculous.

I mean, can't we just arrest him,

you know, for, like,
being a drug dealer?

Oh, yes, that's a great idea.

Right? 'Cause we'll probably get there

right when he's handing
a bag of drugs to a buyer.

Hey, maybe he'll even stop
and wait for us to take a picture.

Hey, we're on the same team here.

I know. I'm sorry. It's just...
we're about to go apologize

to some scumbag drug dealer
we can't put behind bars

the day after we get locked out
of our own squad car,

all because some--

You've gotta be kidding me.

Okay, give me two.
Then come at him from the west side,

but be careful.
You saw him last night.

Who knows what kind
of psychopath's under that mask?

Okay.

Hey, police! Don't move!

Whoa, jeez.

Police! Don't move!

I said police!

(panting)

Look, don't expect much.

Pretty sure my dad
was on a bender last night.

Still can't get him
to work a program, huh?

You know my dad.
He's an ex-cop.

"Programs are for victims."

Yep.

Is that--

Huh.

Dad?

- Dad?
- Andy?

Oh, my God. What happened?

I...

I don't know.

(groans)

(indistinct conversations,
telephone rings)

Okay, please tell me you didn't
get any of that on my stuff.

Well, actually, a disgruntled citizen

accidentally spilled her coffee.

But nice of you to finally join me.

I had a meeting with Frank.

Don't you mean
Staff Sergeant Best?

Or I guess that doesn't apply to you?

You know, for someone
sleeping with a detective,

you might want to reconsider

who's exactly getting
the favors around here.

Gail, if I was seeing Detective Barber
for preferential treatment,

you think I'd choose
to be partnered with you?

Dad, can you tell us
what happened?

(sighs) I-- I-- I don't remember.

Well, it looks like
you probably got into a fight...

but I think that all of this
is your own blood.

(grunts)

Tommy, uh, what are you doing
with this-- Kaliciak's file?

Guy's out.
He was paroled two weeks ago.

Uh, current address, work number?

- You been following him?
- Heh.

Somebody has to.

I talked to his PO,
his boss, his wife.

Nobody wants to believe
this guy's still a problem.

Dad... Kaliciak's dead.

(Sam) Someone put six rounds in him
last night out in Cedarvale Park.

Were you on Kaliciak last night?

Yeah. At the Wellstone.

I-- I sat on the place for a while.

I had a few.

Did you, uh, talk to him last night?

Did you follow him anywhere else?

I don't know.
I must've blacked out.

I-- I just woke up an hour ago
in my car in the alley.

Is the coat you wore, Tommy?

Yeah.

(sniffs and exhales)

It's been fired recently.

Okay, Tommy, I want you
to take that shirt off,

hang it up and don't touch it.
Where's your lockbox?

- It-- It's over there.
- Where's the key?

Underneath the Bible
in the nightstand drawer.

Okay, just try to get
a little bit of sleep, okay?

Maybe it'll come back to you
in a couple of hours.

But if you remember anything,
you've got to call me.

Tommy, I'm keeping the key.

In the meantime,
don't answer the phone.

Don't talk to anyone.

Okay.

We're gonna sort this out,
Dad, okay? I promise.

(siren wailing in distance)

What are we gonna do?

Well, what we're not gonna do
is jump to conclusions, okay?

All we know for sure
is that your dad was drinking last night

and tailing Kaliciak.

And that he fired his .38.

So we'll piece together his night,

figure out what really happened
and go from there.

Okay?

(starts engine)

(police radio chatter)

Officers, please,
there's no need for this.

Look, I didn't do anything.

Attempt break and enter?

Unlawful use of a police computer?
Resisting arrest?

Let's just take him straight into a cell.

- But, guys--
- I'll do the processing

from the report room.
Then we question him

- about Hudson.
- Look, I'm sorry.

Nobody needs to see a thing.
Shut up.

(door beeps, buzzes)

Okay, okay. This is what they call
an instant classic.

- (man) Nice.
- Okay, hold up, hold up.

- Ohh!
- There.

That's the division Christmas card.

(laughs) All right,
so what do they call him, boys?

Is it Night Commander...?

It's "The Guardian."

- Come on.
- Oh, no.

- Okay, hold on.
- Sweet.

Hey, Epstein. Epstein!

Sorry, officers.
We're not open for another hour.

And, uh, between you and me,

the lunch burger is not as good
as everyone says it is.

Oh, thanks. We're not hungry.

Did you see an older guy
come in here last night--

uh, late 50s, kind of big?

You'll have to do better than that.

All right.

How about this guy?

Yeah. Had to mop his blood off my floor
after I kicked him out.

You kicked him out? Why?

Ah, he was going off on some guy--

got in his face, took a swing,
so the other guy popped him,

busted his nose, and I don't know.

I-- I figured it was
somebody's pissed-off father.

All right, thanks.
(clears throat)

(Andy) Okay, so he got into a fight.

Doesn't prove anything.

Andy, I'm afraid we gotta consider
the possibility of what came next.

Kaliciak thinks he's lost your dad.

Then opportunity knocks
with Tamara at the bus stop.

But your dad's still on him,
knows what's gonna happen,

- so he tails him to the park.
- No.

If that's what happened,
he probably saved that girl's life.

No, Sam.

There's gotta be another explanation.

Andy, he fired his .38.

(sighs) Okay,
so my dad was drinking,

and he confronts this guy.
They get into a huge fight.

The guy breaks his nose,
so he goes off to his car,

and he's really pissed off,
so he...

he goes to the beach.

The beach?

Yeah. When my dad gets this way,

sometimes he drives out
to the west beach

and goes past the breakwall
and fires off rounds.

No, just listen, okay?
Maybe he went there last night.

Maybe that's where
he fired his gun.

Okay, okay, sure. The beach.

Why not? Let's do it.

The Guardian. Crime-fighter.
Identity unknown.

(laughs) Gail, did you see this?

Yeah, it's hilarious.

(telephone ringing in distance,
camera shutter clicks)

(Noelle) Oh, you gotta see this.
This is...

I'm surprised. Normally,
you like other people's misery.

I know.

It's just I have a--
a lot on my mind, all right?

It's this stupid Municipal Merit Awards
banquet tonight.

Is that what your meeting
with Sarge was about?

You're getting a Merit award?

No, it's for my mother.

It's a lifetime achievement award.

Oh. Way to go,
Superintendent Peck.

Yeah, except for I have to introduce her.

So?

You remember when I gave
my exit presentation at the academy?

Um, no.

That's because I was sick.

Like, pretty much every time
I have to talk in public,

the idea of just getting up there...

I get all pale and sweaty.

Okay, fine, just sweaty.

You know, please forget
I told you about it.

Oh, hi. Can I help you, ma'am?

I got a message when I got to work.

A Detective Callaghan
was trying to reach me?

Can I get your name?

Valerie Kaliciak.

Uh, okay. Just one moment.

(door beeps)
Terrence Porter.

194 Fielding.

Two years less a day
for armed robbery.

Turns out our Guardian's
not such a hero after all.

You know, breaking into a squad car's
a serious offense.

It was open. I needed the info.

You make this whole thing
yourself?

Most of it.
Ordered some of the stuff online.

It's kinda cool. Heh.

What were you doing
at Hudson's apartment?

I was looking for something concrete
so you guys could put him away.

Hudson has stash houses
all over the neighborhood.

Okay, he's using kids as young
as 9 and 10 years old as runners.

I mean, you guys still haven't
been able to shut him down.

So what--
The Guardian's gonna do it?

Well, you guys can't touch him.

You have to worry about unlawful searches
and harassment complaints.

I'm just trying to clean up
the streets like you.

Difference is we follow the law,

and we don't put on a costume to do it.

Uh, actually...

Dov, we kind of do.

But our costumes are official.

We're trained professionals.

You're not.

Again, Mrs. Kaliciak, I'm very sorry.

He's only been back for two weeks.

Do you have any idea where he
might've been heading last night?

No. Trevor and I hadn't really
fallen back into a routine yet.

That's the girl
from my husband's case...

Tina Walters.

I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have left those out.

The officer told me what he did,
but seeing it...

I- I'm sorry. What officer?

I didn't get his name.

He came to see me a few weeks
before Trevor got released,

said I shouldn't trust him.

I guess he was right.

Your dad's a good shot,
even when he's loaded.

(seagulls calling)
Thanks.

Remind me not to call you
as a character witness

when he's on trial for his life.

Andy, we've been here
half an hour, okay?

We gotta get back to the barn,
see if they made any progress.

No. I know. Just a couple
more minutes, Sam. Please.

Look, Andy,
even if we find some shells,

there's no way to prove
when they were fired,

last night or last week.

I know my dad is a drunk.

Okay? I know he's messed up.

He's not gonna throw his entire life away
on some random ex-con.

Kaliciak's not just any ex-con,
okay? Listen to me.

About six years ago,
when your dad was working Homicide,

they found this girl--
Tina Walters. Remember her?

18, dumped in an industrial park?

That was Kaliciak?

ME figured she'd been killed

only a few hours
before they found the body,

but he held her captive
for almost a week.

I wasn't working the case myself,

but I remember your dad
sat for a long time

with the girl's mother--
single mom.

Tina was an only child.
I guess your dad could relate.

Yeah, well, he caught him.

Yeah, he caught him.

Figured he was responsible
for at least three other girls.

He caught him,
but the case had some holes.

Tommy was not in top form.

He blew it.

Prosecutors had to cut a deal--

a few years on a weapons charge
for some guns they found,

but he walked on the rape and murder.

I doubt your dad ever forgave himself...

or Kaliciak.

We should bring my dad's gun in
and get it tested by Ballistics.

- Andy--
- No. If the gun

doesn't match the slugs
in Kaliciak,

then we know he didn't do it.

It's not that simple.
If we get Ballistics involved,

your dad's officially a murder suspect.

Even if he's cleared, it doesn't matter.

All the great work he did as a cop,

the years of service,
it comes apart.

Sam, listen, I really appreciate
you trying to protect him.

It's not just your dad
I'm looking out for.

If Tommy becomes a suspect,

no matter how good you are,
how straight,

it's gonna stick to you,
and you don't deserve that.

Are you saying
we should cover this up?

I'm saying we exhaust
all other options, okay?

We head back to the barn

and try to find anyone else
with motive and opportunity.

Meantime, we keep Callaghan

as far away from your father as possible.

(siren wails in distance)

(stiffly) "Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.

- Most of you know..."
- (mouths words)

"Superinte-- "

(normal voice) Can you stop
mouthing my words, please?

Do you want the help? Go.

(sighs)

(stiffly) "Most of you know, uh, Elaine Peck

"as Superintendent Peck.

But I call her something else."

(normal voice)
Can you forget it, please?

I am sweating already!

Gail, nobody's gonna laugh at you.
I promise.

That's really not
what I'm worried about.

Look, I have certain standards
for myself,

and I expect nothing but the best,

but my mother expects more.

Look, growing up, she gave me
three pieces of advice:

always remember who you are,

work harder than everyone else,

and don't screw up.

I'm gonna screw up.

We got high-density padding,
reinforced spine

and a dual-phase kidney belt.

- Nice.
- Yeah.

I know it sounds stupid,
but when I put this suit on,

I kind of feel like I can do anything.

Like run from the cops?

(sighs) Okay.

I guess I didn't want to go back to jail.

Well, you shouldn't be screwing around,
trying to do our job.

Look, ever since I was a kid,
I wanted to be a cop.

Okay, man, look at you guys--
the new boots,

the bulletproof vest.

You're cops.
Everybody respects you.

I never had that,
not my whole life.

So why not go to the academy?

Bad choice of friends.

You know, I never even knew
what was going down.

Look, it doesn't matter.
I was with them. I screwed up.

And no one will let you forget it.

What are these pockets for,
weapons?

No. I don't carry weapons.

Th-They're for camera lenses.

Look, most of what I do
is nighttime surveillance--

you know, hang back
and keep an eye out.

Kind of sounds like being a rookie.
(chuckles)

These stash houses
you say Hudson's got--

any pictures?

Tons-- Hudson, his crew.

- Where are they?
- Back at my place.

Come on, Terry.
Let's go for a ride.

- (Dov) Get your stuff.
- (Chris) Nice.

Hey, Dad, uh, it's me again.

Just give me a call
when you get this, okay?

(lowers voice)
Probably just sleeping it off.

- Yeah.
- Hey.

Hey. Um,
how's the investigation going?

Uh, turns out Kaliciak
just got out of Quinnley,

paroled two weeks ago,
so I'm calling in his PO

to see if he knows anything.

What about your dad?
Has he had any insights on the case?

Uh, no, not really. He doesn't
remember much about the case.

He'll keep trying, though.
You got a suspect?

No. That's, uh, Kaliciak's wife.

I finished with her a while ago,
but she's still here.

- She give you anything?
- No, not this time.

I'm gonna have to bring her back.

I can give her a lift home if you want.

Andy!

Dad.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to help.

I have been trying
to get ahold of you.

Did you remember something?
I mean, what are you doing here?

Just trying to help
my little girl figure this out.

You've been drinking.
How much have you had?

(chuckles) Look, uh,
I'm-- I'm all right.

You can't do this right now.

Don't worry about me. I'm fine.

(Luke) Tommy,
I'm surprised to see you.

Andy said you didn't remember much
about the Kaliciak case.

Eh, you know.

These days, it takes a little time
for a memory to warm up.

You sure you're all right?
That doesn't look too good.

Just had a little disagreement
with a guy.

Yeah. Now you know why I didn't have
very many dates in high school.

I thought we could start
with the Tina Walters case.

It's a little before my time,
so if you don't mind thinking back,

see if you can remember anyone
who might still hold a grudge.

I'll try my best.

I saw the pictures of Tina Walters.

My husband really did
those things to her, didn't he?

Please, I need to know.

Yes, he did.

The case fell apart,

but I tell you for a fact,
your husband was guilty.

And last night,
he tried to do it again.

You think they'll catch who killed him?

We hope so.

You never know. Sometimes people
feel better when they confess.

Kaliciak did time.
Probably didn't make any friends.

So maybe we're looking at another con.

Or maybe it was just
wrong place, wrong time.

Way he was shot says it's personal.

He hurt a lot of people.
There were other girls,

their-- their families.

Well, you interviewed most of 'em.

You think anyone is capable of this?

Callaghan, these people
have suffered enough.

Yeah, but if one of them did this--

Then good for them!

Look, Kaliciak didn't
just attack these girls.

He left a lot of collateral damage.

When Trevor was arrested six years ago,

I knew it was a mistake.

He was my husband.
We slept in the same bed.

There was no way he could do
those terrible things.

But you weren't sure?

I trusted him.

But every time I turned around,
I was lying for him...

looking the other way...

giving him an alibi.

Well, of course.
You were taking care of him.

Clean up someone's mess
long enough, it becomes automatic.

But people like that,
they don't change.

They keep doing it again and again
until they get caught.

Or someone stops him.

Dad, you know, maybe we
shouldn't do this right now.

You can come back later.

No. Detective Callaghan
needs to see this case clearly,

and I'm gonna help him.

How closely did you look at this file?

I just flipped through it.
It's only been a couple hours.

You see the cage?

The cage?

Where he kept Tina in the basement

for a whole week... in that filth.

You know, maybe Andy's right.
Maybe we should--

And then he just strangles her
and throws her body out

behind a garbage bin,
and he was gonna do it again.

Tommy, did you talk to Kaliciak's wife
a couple weeks ago?

Kaliciak was a predator.

You knew he was getting out.
You tracked him.

It was the only way
I could keep them safe.

I mean, all this evidence, right,

the pictures, fingerprints--
it didn't matter.

He did barely any time.

He was gonna get out
and do it all over again.

- Kaliciak deserved what he got!
- Dad.

Look... (sighs)

from one detective to another,
Callaghan,

this case...

maybe you don't have to try so hard.

Mr. McNally, I really don't think
you should say anything else.

All right. You need to get
your father sobered up

and get him a lawyer right now.

I know. I know I should've
never let him say anything.

I mean, both Sam and I said
that he needed

- to just go and--
- Wait. I-I'm sorry.

You and Sam knew about this?

Well--

Andy, come on.
What else are you not telling me?

Luke, I am so sorry.

You know what? It's probably best
you don't say anything else, either.

(slams wall)

(Sam) McNally?

Sam, Luke knows...
about my dad.

He didn't do it.

What?

Kaliciak's wife, she just confessed.

So you became suspicious,

and that's when you began
to follow your husband?

When I saw him pick up that girl
at the bus stop,

I didn't want to believe it.

I mean, I loved him,

but I had to do something.
He was never going to stop.

(door opens)

(presses key)

Uh... (sighs)

traffic camera on the Kingsway
recorded your dad's car

heading out to the west beach
around midnight,

then back again a few hours later.

So he wasn't anywhere near the park
when Kaliciak was shot.

No. You were right.

(sighs)

So...

you okay to take him home now?

(whispers) Thank you.

(exhales deeply)

(sirens wailing in distance)

(Tommy) That was a close one,
huh, sweetie? (chuckles)

(sighs)

You okay?

You haven't said anything
since we left the barn.

I can't do this anymore--

clean up after you.

- Andy.
- No. No, I hate it, okay?

I-- I hate this sick feeling that I get
in the pit of my stomach

every time the phone rings
and it's you.

And I wonder, "What the hell's
happened this time?"

I-- I won't call.

Yes, you will. You always do,
because I'm all you have.

(stammers)
You're my little girl.

I used to be.

I used to be the little girl
that you could hold in your arms,

the one that you would take to the beach
and look for seashells.

I went to the same beach
looking for bullets--

bullets-- trying to prove that you
didn't do something terrible.

I was hoping that all you did
was get blasted

and drive to the water
and shoot your gun.

How twisted is that?

Augh, this is all my fault.

- No, Andy, no--
- Yeah. Yeah, it's my fault,

because I've somehow convinced myself
that this is normal, okay,

that you needing me like this
makes us close or something.

I actually believed
you killed somebody today.

And you didn't.

But we both know
that you could have,

'cause that's exactly
where you are right now.

You know, you want to continue
living your life this way?

Go ahead.

I can't do it anymore.

I'm done.

So that is Hudson? You ID'd him?

(Dov) Yes, sir. Absolutely.

Now, there aren't any of Hudson
actually dealing, though.

But we got nearly a dozen of his crew.

We bring 'em all in now
with the evidence we got,

somebody will turn over.

Looks like there's enough here
for a warrant.

I'm gonna walk this up the line
to the Drug Squad.

This is good work.
This is gonna look good on you boys.

You kind of need that today.

Thank you. Uh, but full credit
goes to Mr. Porter here.

All we did was take his statement
and look at the photos.

- Yeah.
- Yeah...

Well, there is still the matter
of unlawful access of a police computer.

(Dov) But unfortunately, sir,

we never actually saw that guy's face.

Yeah, could've been anybody.

Well, if you do ever track him down,

you might want to tell him
to lay off the heroics

before he gets hurt
or sent back to jail.

(Dov) Yes, sir, absolutely.

Yeah? Looks like
he's got a hockey game.

Get him out of here.

Or a Halloween party.

# You're crazy... #

Leo's school concert.
He was a prince.

Oh, I guess he's cute.

That was before the show.

It was a-a fairy tale
narrated by his teacher.

Leo had one line,

but the poor kid opened his mouth

and puked all over his tunic.

Eww! I mean, was, like, he okay?

Yeah, he was fine.

I mean, I got him all cleaned up,

but, uh, he wouldn't stop crying,

thought I was disappointed in him.

What did you tell him?

I just told him I was his mommy
and he was my little man,

and no matter what happens,

nothing can ever change how much
a mother loves her child.

You're gonna do fine tonight.

And if you screw up, you know,

you just clean up your tunic
and put your crown back on.

Dad?

I thought maybe you should
look after this for a while.

Sure.

(siren wailing in distance)

Dad, look, I really meant what I said.

You know...

the day they cut Kaliciak's deal,

I asked if I could be the one
to speak to her--

Tina's mother.

I just wanted to say I was sorry.

It was my fault. I screwed up.

I was drinking...
way too much.

She made me a-a coffee
in the kitchen.

I was standing
about 6 feet from her when...

she put the knife to her chest.

(sighs)

The amount of force it takes

to get a blade through the rib cage, I...

I didn't think...

There was so much blood.

She slipped right through my arms,

and she said,

"I just want to be with my little girl."

(voice breaks)
I didn't know.

I can't lose you, Andy.

I'll do whatever it takes.

(Oceanship's "Don't Wear Me Out"
playing)

# All my life, it seems, is bottled angst #

# Unbottled angst #

# And bottled angst #

- Ooh!
- Damn!

- Ooh.
- That was sweet.

All right, you two, get a room.
You're adorable.

That's what I'm talkin' about.

It looks like kid hero over there
is having a pretty good time.

Well, he always wanted to be a cop.

Figured we could let him
feel like one for a while.

- Ah.
- One more.

Yeah. Me, too, please.

So-- So what was
your superhero name?

- What?
- Come on.

Epstein, we all had 'em,
kids growing up.

What was your superhero name?

Oh.

Well, mine was, um...

"Justice Avenger."

"Jus-- " Nice. Nice.

What about you?

(laughs) Oh, yeah.

I don't think so.

# Don't wear me out #

# Don't leave me here #

- Thank you.
- Hey.

Hey.

So how'd the big speech go?

How would I know? I'm home sick.

(snaps fingers)
Can I get a drink, please?

# Don't wear me out #

# Don't leave me here #

- (exhales sharply)
- # 'Cause I'm not giving up #

# So I'm giving in #

Thank you for understanding.

Of course.

You okay?

I am now.

Trust me.

# Don't leave me here #
