Shades of Blue (2016–2018): Season 3, Episode 6 - The Reckoning - full transcript

Harlee and Wozniak have 24 hours to link the intelligence unit to the cartel while facing the backlash of breaking the blue wall.

- Previously on
"Shades of Blue"...

Wozniak's convinced that
Saperstein's the mole.

- Whoa!

- Your secrets
have poisoned you.

But soon I'm gonna heal you.

- My daughter killed herself
right after we had a fight.

Annie?

And I've been trying to fill
the hole ever since.

- Does this guy look
familiar to you?

- Yeah.

- Wallace just put intelligence
at the scene.



- Harlee was obsessed
with Agent Stahl.

She's dangerous.

- You're gonna need
a second career

when you realize who I am.

- What hooks do you have
in Captain Ramsey?

- Enrique Ortiz is
the son of the head

of the Riohacha cartel.

- He ordered a hit.

That means the Riohacha cartel
is in bed with intelligence.

- I can't follow him blindly.

Not anymore.

- Cops investigating cops
is dangerous business.

Going against their blue wall
is a lonely path.

Was Bennett ordered to kill
James Nava?



- I think he improvised.

- You're gonna break
the blue wall

against the intelligence
division.

- Theo Bennett,
you're under arrest

for the murder of James Nava.

Do you understand
your situation?



- Sarcasm isn't the way
to go here, Lieutenant.

- This isn't sarcasm.

It's contempt.

- Arresting an intelligence
officer outside my approval

demonstrates a reckless
disregard for every honest cop

in this precinct.

- No one's above the law.

- Internal Affairs should have
been your first call

if you had concerns
within the department.

They exist specifically
to avoid Blue-on-Blue

conflicts of interest.

- I approached Detective Verco
about my concerns.

- Whoa, hold on, Detective.

You floated a few rumors,
but you never objected

to my closing the Sunrise file
when the guy that you shot

was confirmed by ballistics
as the killer.

- I didn't arrest Theo Bennett
for the Sunrise.

He murdered an assistant
District Attorney.

- So you're avenging
your boyfriend?

Is that it?

- Is that a Jordan Ramsey
talking point?

- Yes, Lieutenant.
I spoke to Captain Ramsey,

the head of our
Intelligence service.

He was curious if our
little search party

at his officer's apartment
found even a trace

of the evidence you suggested.

- The evidence was
there yesterday.

- So you obviously conducted
an illegal search.

- I thought a warrant
would tip them off.

And I was right.

- I'm releasing
this peace officer.

I see no evidence
for his arrest,

and frankly,
you've pissed me off.

Don't expect me to shield you
from the blowback.

You go rogue,
you go alone.

- I can prove this.
- Then do it.

He's already been arrested.

Technically he's on a 24-hour
hold until I run

and clear the paperwork.

New evidence comes to light,

internal affairs
will look at it.

- Fine.

If IA wants him,
he's all yours.

But he doesn't get booked
in this precinct.

- You're a real profile
of courage, aren't you?

- Intelligence is also
protecting Enrique Ortiz,

so unimportant that
a Federal task force came

and swooped him
from our custody.

- They're not doing
a very good job

of protecting him, are they?

So, what now, detectives?

How do I help facilitate
the wild irony of you two

investigating a cop
for being dirty?

- Why don't you prep Bennett
for interrogation?

- As you wish.

- Verco.

Thank you.

- Prepare to be unpopular,
detectives.

It's not as much fun
as I make it look.

- We got 24 hours to charge
this scarecrow.

You got a plan?

- Did you read
his military record?

- Yeah, he doesn't talk much.

But maybe if we shake him up...

- Woz, thank you for sticking
by me today.

I know you didn't wanna
do it like this.



- Even when you act alone,
Harlee,

you never act alone.



- Matthews and Avery.

- Right here, Captain.
- Here.

- Edgeworth and Schaefer.

- It's gonna be tough today.

- Yeah, price of Harlee
starting a war.

Soldiers on the front lines
get it the worst.

- Yeah, except I don't
remember volunteering.

- Brewster and Capriccio.

- Here.
- Here.

- Donnelly and Stone.

- Alive and well,
Drill Sergeant.

- Okay, priorities.

The string of break-ins
on Bedford last week

is starting to look connected,
so dig deep.

- Tufo and Nazario.

You skipped us.

- Did I?
- Uh-huh.

- My mistake.

All right, let's get out there,
people.

I want double digits
in holding by noon.

- Try to keep it
to criminals today.

If they got a badge,
stay clear.

Remind your curvy
friend upstairs.

- How about I remind you that
she's upstairs for a reason?

- Oh, I got a few ideas as to
what those reasons could be.

Ain't loyalty that
got her to the top.

- I think you wanna hush up
now, Donnelly.

- There's a whole city
out there, Tufo.

You sure you wanna keep making
enemies in here?

- Less traffic.

- Less warning.

- Okay, let's find an exit.
Come on.

What did I tell you?

Harlee makes an impulsive
decision,

we all suffer the blow back.

What else is new?

- Right now, I just wanna keep
my brother out of its way.

Loman, tell me this
is good news.

- You still hear them,
don't you?

The voices that don't go quiet.

- They've been chasing you
for years.

Haven't they?

Captains, Lieutenants,
Sergeants.

Dad.

- I'm exercising my
right to silence.

- Have the nightmares
stopped yet?

It says here in your file that
you were at Kamdesh

in Afghanistan.

And then after that,
your service record goes dark.



What were you doing?
Jerking off in a tent?

- Did you lose any friends
over there?

Kill any civilians?

- I--

I am exercising my right
to silence.

- I get it.

I packed body bags too.

You made choices,

and you survived.

Even if you lost
what made you human.

- I'm exercising my right
to silence.

- Do you ever think about them?



The waitress who was trying
to make it home for some rest

before the breakfast rush.



Is she any different than
the women and children

from those torn down villages

who were looking
to you for help?

Do you remember the moment

they realized that you weren't
there to help them?



- Like I said.



Have the nightmares
stopped yet?



- I'm exercising--
- I know.

I know your answer.



It's mine too.



- Did you intercept James Nava
that night

with orders to kill him?



- They're keeping his transfer
off the books.

- Oh, yeah?
Who'd you have to charm

to get that deal?

- 50-year-old gentleman
named Carl.

- You should have sent me.

- Uh, I'm not sure, actually.

- All right, man.
Wallace, you good?

- Yeah, now that you're here.

- Oh, my man.
- Not you.

- Easy, sailor.

Wouldn't want your
heart rate to spike.

- Yo, Loman.

You made sure the transfer
order is under an alias, right?

- Yeah, I wrote it up
as a discharge.

Different name,
different hospital.

He's safe.

- He can identify a cop
in a mass murder.

We're taking chances
just being outside.

- Yeah.

- Tess, Tess,
close those doors!

Get back inside!

Sir, put your hands
where I can see them.

Don't do that, sir.

- Hands!

- It's a gun!
- No, no, no, no!

It wasn't a gun, man!

Chill!



- Yo, why didn't you listen
to me, huh?

You almost got yourself shot.



- Is he talking yet?

- More than he thinks he is.

- You and detective Santos
broke a cardinal rule.

- I can list a few rules
you're breaking.

I guess we all draw
our own lines.

- I was laboring under
the misapprehension

that we have an agreement.

- There's breathing
exercises for that.

- Now that it's clear
that we don't,

I'm gonna make you famous.



I'll endeavor
to keep this short.

- Hey, Lieutenant.

You're gonna want to see this.

- The brave men and women
of NYPD's intelligence unit

have been working for
four years to infiltrate

and disarm
this terrorist cell.

We have diffused undetonated
explosive devices

in three locations.

Detective Bennett himself
located two pipe bombs

near a subway station
in Brooklyn.

Unfortunately due to
a lack of the brotherhood

and the solidarity that
the NYPD is known for,

Detective Bennett has now been
falsely accused

and wrongfully detained
by detectives

of the 64th precinct.

The reckless behavior
they have demonstrated

has further compromised--

- Seriously?

The anti-terrorism card?

- Nobody fact checks
the boogeyman.



You had to expect that they
were gonna strike back.

- We can't let them
canonize this guy.

- Well, if Bennett's
not gonna talk,

then we're gonna have to plant.

- No, nothing dirty!

With Ramsey,
it's gotta be straight,

or we don't do it.

- Don't do it?
We're already in it!

You said that there
was evidence.

Nava's notebook.

So we replace it
with something else.

- We call in a favor
to Gail Baker.

Maybe she can get me
access to Enrique.

The cartel is Ramsey's
soft spot.

- I think she holds the IOUs
in our relationship.

- We can take a stand.

Here.
Refuse to sink to their level.

- Harlee, you just thanked me
for standing with you

when you made this arrest.

That I knew was gonna
start a war.

The entire department
could turn against us.

Don't tie my hands
behind my back now.

Not now.



- Woz, this is when our
choices matter the most.

When what's wrong is easy--

- This is not easy.

- And what's right
is full of danger,

that's when we decide
who we are.

- I'm just trying
to keep us alive.

I'm sorry if it's not
righteous enough for you.

- You know, maybe I should have
just put a bullet

in Bennett's head.

- Ah, now that's a constructive
suggestion!

We got 22 hours.

The first 11,
we'll do it your way.

After that,
it's my way.



- Paramedics said the guy
had a fever of 103.

Never should have been driving.

Look, I'll type up
the accidental weapon

discharge report.

Last minute you saw
it wasn't a gun,

fired into the ground.

No injured civilians.

- At the last minute, hmm?

- Look, man, I get it,
all right?

Intelligence, sicarios...

I'm nervous too.

But I know what it's like
to shoot an unarmed man,

and I wanted to spare you.

- Yeah, you almost spared me
my life, Loman.

- Tufo,
I knew he didn't have a gun.

- I did not.

All we can do is make decisions

based on the information
that we have.

- And I had more
information than you.

- Well, wouldn't that be nice?

- If we could always react
to things exactly as they are?

- Why shouldn't we?

- Because in the real world,
people shoot at you

for no reason, Loman.

Because they're on meth.
Because you're wearing blue.

And we're not even safe
in our own precinct anymore.

And if that guy back there
pulled out a gun

instead of a phone and we
waited until we knew,

it'd be too late.

Get a nice memorial service
out of it, though.

- I'd rather have a nice
service for the right reasons

than contribute
to this problem.

- Yeah, if everyone who ever
threw a rock at a cop

could wear this badge
for one day,

they'd understand
it's a war out there.

And the enemies dress
the same as civilians.

- Oh, be honest, man.

The enemies dress like us, too.

And I'm not talking about
the Intelligence Unit.



- Well, you wanna
know a secret?



I'm still a black man
under these clothes.

Yeah, but if I get gunned down,
I'm just a dead cop.

It's the risk I signed up for.

- Solutions gotta
start somewhere.

- Yeah, it does.

And today, I am grateful
that you stopped me.

But tomorrow, we could be those
guys lying dead in the street.

- Or the ones throwing
the rocks.



- Or the ones throwing
the rocks.



- At least you don't have a
conscience weighing you down.

- You are unburdened
by common sense.

- What happened
to Nava's notebook?

It was there in the apartment
when I left you.

But once the warrant
was served--

- You made the mistake of
arresting Bennett.

That's what happened.

And that's after Ramsey had
proceeded with the cartel

and made them understand
the foolishness

in calling in hits
on police officers.

- What,
am I supposed to be grateful?

He did that to protect himself,
not us.

- Oddly on this,
he has a code.



- I need you to get me
something to hold Bennett.

- No evidence will stick.

- Not if you keep
destroying it.

- Look, you got Bennett
for one day.

Congratulations.

But you are not going to take
down Jordan Ramsey

with the clock running.

He's playing a different game.

- You wanted me to break
the blue wall.

I bulldozed it.
Now I need your help.

- I didn't tell you to do that.

- You practically dared me.

Feeding me information,
hoping that I use it.

Regretting how it
all went wrong.

Wanting to look
in the mirror again?



Well, this is it.

We're here.

- Ten minutes with
the son of a kingpin.

That's all I'm asking.

- Matt, the orders came down
from up on high.

Nobody talks to Enrique Ortiz,
not even me.

The DEA is taking the lead.

- Enrique Ortiz sent
an assassin against my crew.

I gotta chase this down!

- Matt, I wish I didn't occupy
the rung of a very tall ladder,

but I can't change that.

- Not with that attitude,
you can't.

- Yeah, I wish I could tell you
that Enrique Ortiz's

only known contact in New York
was a lawyer

named Dustin Hayworth.

- It's too bad you can't.

- Like I said,
I wish I could have helped.

- Hey, there she is.

Well, it's official.

We've got a real life
American hero

in our interrogation room.

- With no bust to play.

- Doesn't matter.

I already got
two officers

wanting to shake
Bennett's hand.

- And when I take him down
for multiple homicides,

they'll regret that.

- Yeah, you want my advice?

- Do I have an option?

- Work this case with
your head down.

Do not try to fight this story.
They're already too far ahead.

And the clock is ticking.

- They went after my kid,
Verco.

The story's not over.

And the city loves
a good twist.

- You got fan mail?



No leads sounds a little harsh.

- You know this case?

- I mean, I've seen the file,
yeah.

There are no leads,
but still it sounds

a little harsh.

- This was on my block.



- "Healed yet?"

It must be a prank from
the guys downstairs, right?

- "It was him or you."



We thought Enrique Ortiz
only sent one sicario.



Maybe it was two.

- Sounds like somebody
saved your life.



Any idea who that might be?
Hey, Detective!

- It's him.

He didn't even bother
to disguise his handwriting.

- Detective Santos,
this isn't a good time.

- My apologies.

When would be the most
convenient time

for my psychotic stalker
to show up again?

- Ideally when someone else
is around to see him.

- Look.

I tried to let it go.
Okay, I did.

And maybe it wasn't
him all along,

but I know that this is him.

He said he was gonna heal me.

I never told anybody that.

- This happened on your block?

- Yesterday.

I didn't see anything,
and they don't have any leads.

- Okay, well,
I'm gonna need for you

to fill out
a witness statement.

- Can we just skip to the part
where you start trusting me

and send this to forensics?

- A lot of steps between here
and there, Detective.

- I've earned more than that.

- There's been a development.

We are currently pursuing
another avenue

of investigation.

- What development?

- Your only witness retracted
her story.

- Gina?

- She claims that
she was coerced

into giving a false statement.

She knows better than anybody
how obsessed he is--

how dangerous.

- Apparently she feels
that the obsession runs

in the other direction.



- Is Dustin Hayward in?

- He is, but he's on a call.

Can I take--
- Thanks.

- Um, excuse me.

- Dustin Hayward,
NYPD.

- I knew you'd come.

The times,
they move so fast.

- You taking a vacation?

- Plan A.

But, uh,
we're past that now.

- It's always hard to find a
good hotel at the last minute.

- Me, I'm happy
in a sleeping bag.

My wife,
she needs all the amenities.

What about you, Carlos?

- If I don't have a chocolate
on my pillow,

I'm out the door.

- I can't say anything.
Please don't make me.

- You don't even know
what we're asking.

- Look, I know what I did.
I know.

It was the money.

Things fell apart.
I needed cash.

- All right,
so tell us about Jordan Ramsey

and Enrique Ortiz.

- I can't.
They'll kill him.

- Who?

- I can't say anything to you.



They'll know.

- They?

Are they coming here?

Dustin, help me understand.

- I never had a choice.

- We can protect you.



- Nothing can protect me now.



both: No!



- Somebody help!
- Call 911!

- Gina!
It's me.

Open up.

Gina?



Gina.



If you're in there,
I just wanna talk.

- Can we do that?



Gina.

Look, I need your help.
Please.



Gina, are you there?



Yeah.



What?
When?



I'm on my way.







She's gone.

- Harlee played her part.



Now we have ours.
The question is,

are we strong enough
to do what's necessary?

- The knot only gets tighter
the more you struggle.

I told you that.

You don't listen.

I listened.
Hey, hey, listen to me.

I listened.
I tried to understand.

I told you where this
was gonna lead.

And I told you that I didn't
have a choice.

Because she took it
away from me.



- Now, debt needs to be paid.



- I know, I know, I know.

I know you lost a lot.

You lost everything.

I know.

What?

- Cut her loose.



- Tenth floor windows
aren't easy to open.

Did you know that, Lieutenant?

- Sounds like a question
for the architect.

- Indulge me.

- Being cute's not gonna
change what happened.

- Why were you up there
to see Mr. Hayward?

His assistant said you barged
in without an appointment.

- I'm running an investigation.

- Looks like somebody
forgot his cape.

What am I looking at?

- He lost an argument
with gravity.

- Who started it?

- He did.

This poor bastard was a wreck

the second we walked
in the door.

- How's our poor bastard
holding up?

- Same as always.
No way to know.

You good, boss?

- Better than Mr. Hayward.

- Thought we were gonna
wait eight hours

till we tried it your way.

Sorry.

Look, did he say anything
before he jumped?

Anything about intelligence?

- Just talked about his family
and how he wanted them safe.

- Ramsey and
the Riohacha cartel?

- Yeah, and that's what
we have to prove.

We have to find out what
pancake man here--

what he was doing for Ramsey.

- We gotta search that office.

- I tried.

They got the whole
floor sealed.

They won't let anybody up.



- So we sneak in later?

- What, a Breaking and
Entering?

That's not cutting corners?



What?

- I'm working a theory.



- Jumping out a window.

That seems like a fitting end

to the end of my tenure
with this crew.

- You'll go ride off
into the sunset, Tess.

- Are you kidding me?

I've lost my marriage,

I have been shot,

then operated on
by Espada Nightingale,

I have been lied to,
demoted,

aced out of a payday

and then, oh, I was called out
of my first date in forever

to torture a hit woman
in a shower.

Taking a concrete plunge
seems like

the only logical next step
for me, Tufo.

- Yeah, let's work on that
whole glass half full thing.

Yeah?

God, now we have to spend
half our shifts

doing drive by safety checks.

Everyone's circling the wagons
to save Harlee's ass.

She made her choice.

And we can make
a different one.

- Yeah, the intelligence unit
tried to kill my brother.

Any choice that involves
taking them down, I'm all in.

Wait, you had a date?

- What, no collars, ladies?

That ain't like the
street crimes unit.

They're having trouble finding
someone to rough up.

Frame another cop.

Stats are stats, right?

- Oh, I'm happy to find someone
to rough up.

You're about to volunteer.

- Hey, no, I understand.

Why put yourselves on the line?

That's what brothers are for.

- What was that?

- No, I think it's smart.

You send in that ex-con
brother of yours,

you get the paycheck,

parolee gets a cracked skull.

- Oh, no.
Tufo, Tufo.

Not worth it, man.

- Wallace is twice
the man you are!

- Come on!
- Get off!

- You son of a bitch!

- I may be a son of a bitch,
but I'm no traitor!

- Hey, knock it off!

- You put a leash on that
attack dog, Tess!

- Quiet!

Is this what we want the
public to see from the NYPD?

Now what is this?

- It's a bit of a disagreement.

I say cops don't turn
on other cops.

- They do when the cop has
committed multiple homicides.

- All right, that's it.

The two of you go home
and get right.

'Cause I'm filing conduct
reports on both your asses.



- What are you drinking?



- Same as you.



Left my gun in my car.

- I'm not carrying.

We're more evolved animals,
I think.

- No, we're cavemen.

We worship the shadows
on the wall.

- Long day?

- I've had longer.



He was my detective.

- I know.
David Saperstein.

I read the report.
Four story fall.



- I pushed him.



- Funny what our hands are
capable of, isn't it?

You think that you know them.



- I had to do it myself.

If it had to be done,
it was gonna be me.

- Noble sentiment.

But once you've led a platoon
into an ambush

and watched men cut down
because of your decisions,

you'd let it go.

- Is that why you didn't
kill Parker?



- I couldn't do it.

That make me a coward?

- I think you were probably
a coward way before that.

Oh.

So, what am I doing here,
Lieutenant?



- Your man Bennett won't talk.

He may be a homicidal maniac,
but he's loyal.

- I could have told you that
before you put him in cuffs.

- I got a deal for you.

Give us a charge that we
could hang on him.

He pleads out,
my crew gets safe,

and we make it out alive.

- Are you asking me
to leave a man behind?

You'd never do that.

- I have higher standards.

- What you have...

Is 15 more hours.

I can't leave Bennett
in custody.

He's a hero now.

A hero's a villain
with a backstory.

- That's true.

I've broken laws I had
a hand in writing.

Neglected my second wife.

Haven't spoken to my kids
in ten years.

But at least they're
still breathing.

You?



You're the angel of death.



- What are we doing here?

- Ramsey needs something
in that office.

- Something to keep Bennett
in custody?

- All I know is it's important.

The crime scene's gonna be left
unattended in ten minutes.

- For your guys
to make an appearance.

- We have a narrow window.

- Do you know why
this guy jumped?

- Maybe when we get up there,
we'll see the appeal.



- Intel's good so far.

- Thank you.

Gloves?
- Got my own.



- How'd this guy get on your
boss' radar?

- Did some legal work for
Enrique Ortiz.

How'd he get on Ramsey's?

- I'd guess the same.

- Cartel money is a road map
right to him.

- That's a sound theory.

Poor guy was more scared
to talk than he was to die.



- Cleaned out his desk
pretty thoroughly.

Had time to prepare.



- Doesn't sound like he had
much of a choice.



- What'd be going
through your head...



If you knew it was coming?

- Well, I'd be wishing I hadn't
wasted so much time

matching my socks.



My wife.

- What was that?

- If I were him--

If I had a wife,
I'd be thinking about her.

My kids.
I'd want them to know

why this happened.

I'd try to communicate
something.

What--what did he say
to your friends?

- Just that they'd know
if he talked.

That his family was in danger.



He gave Espada a photo of them.



- This photo?



- Fed Prac Digest Volume Four.



Federal Practice.

It's a book.

- Circled this school
three times in twenty minutes.

You feel like filling me in?

- That's information beyond
your pay grade.

- Pretty sure we're wearing
the same uniform.

Even if one of us
doesn't respect it.

- You're about 30 seconds from
getting kicked out of this car.

- It's my car.

You're in it 'cause your crazy
partner got his ass sent home.

Dragged my partner with him.

Will food shut you up?

- Worth a shot.

- Volume four.

Got it.



- Treasure map?

- It's a formation document
for an offshore LLC.

Magnolia Limited.



Good way to stay anonymous.



- This isn't anonymous.

It's Ramsey.

- Are you sure?

- Magnolia was his last
operation overseas.

It--it went badly.
He lost a lot of men.

He's--he's never been able
to let it go.

- I thought you said
he didn't confide in you.

- I used to be the Golden Boy.



- It's a purchase agreement

for a property in Red Hook.

A bonded warehouse.

Bonded?

- They have lax custom
requirements

and sporadic oversight.



Look.

It opens onto the river.

Come on.
Leave the paper.

Get the address.





- Come on.
Too late.

Over here.



- Think this place
is haunted yet?

- He didn't die until
after he landed.



- I'm not seeing anything
labeled Ramsey or Magnolia.

- It wouldn't be labeled.

All that matter is Matt Wozniak
didn't come away

with any leads.

- Well, there's nothing here.

Hayward probably shredded them.

- Maybe packed them away.



- Wait.

This book is upside down.



This is it.

Good effort, Mr. Hayworth.

- Let's go.

Ramsey wants us there to
chaperone tonight's operation.



- Tonight's operation?



- I'll find out.



- I thought I heard the door.

What are you doing home?

- I wanted to see you.

- You talking to me
or Jack Daniels?

- Both.

- He's gonna have
to keep you occupied,

because I have a--
a fundraiser to go to.

St. Francis?

- Yeah, the one that
you got out of

by saying that you had to work?

- Yeah, I'm a slippery fish.

- See you later.
- Okay.

- It's barely a scratch.

I already told you
I'd pay for it.

- What'd you say?

I don't want you hanging out
with that crowd!

You're better than them!

- I'm not a little girl
anymore.

Let me live my life.

- Fine, fine.
You live your life.

You see where you end up.

- What do you care?

You're never here.

I could be drowning,

and you'd call me
from your office

yelling at me
to learn to swim.

- And you know what
would happen?

You'd sink!

Right to the bottom!





- Sorry, Beauty.



I'm sorry that
I let you drown.

- Boss, 14 hours left
on Bennett.

Why aren't you answering
your phone?

- I didn't hear it ringing.

- Your jumper left us a lead.

- On the pavement?

- Ramsey's bringing in
another shipment.

- A shipment of what?

- Something he doesn't want
customs to see.

I'll brief you on the way.



- Just how you wanna be
spending your day off, huh?

- Avenging my brother's assault

beats cereal on the couch.

- Ah, come on.
Just admit it.

You missed us.

- So Harlee, how sure are we
that your man inside

isn't Ramsey's man inside?

- That's what the vests
are for.

- Whatever it is is gonna lead
us back to Intelligence?

- Ramsey owns this warehouse.

Anything we seize
is potential evidence.

- Okay, but--but before
we go any further,

don't you think we
should maybe, like,

I don't know,
take a vote or something?

- A vote?
- Yeah.

I don't remember deciding
to start a war

with the Intelligence Unit

and alienate
the entire police force.

- The war didn't wait
for you to decide.

It's here.

We gotta stop it now.

- I'm just saying,
maybe if we had taken a vote,

none of this would
have happened.

- Fine, every detective
gets one vote.

Lieutenant gets five.

The ayes have it.

Tufo, James Madison, myself,

we're gonna go around the side.

- Look, I don't know about
anyone else,

but I'm feeling backup on this.

- No, we need to keep this
off the grid.

Intelligence knows
your Google history.

- You two go in the back.

We're gonna make enough
an impression

that whoever's back there
will never notice you.

- Loman.
- Yeah.

- Let's go make a scene.



The party doesn't seem to be
very well attended.

- I'm not loving this feeling.



- All right,
let's find the water.



6:10.

- Harlee said six.

This isn't right.

These guys are precise.

- Well, we're here.

Maybe this is precisely
what they wanted.



- Not promising.

- Harlee, you there?



- Go ahead.

- We found the dock.
No sign of a shipment.

- How solid are you
on this intel?

- No sign of anything?

- Yo, let's get the hell
out of here.

This doesn't feel right.

- Woz says we need to go.

- No!

We only have Bennett
for a few more hours.

This is our shot.

- Harlee, I heard something.



What is it?

- We gotta move.

- Harlee!
Harlee, you there?

- We'll find them.
Stay low.

Dispatch,
Tango Nine Zero Three.

I've got a 13.
Shots fired.

- Tango Nine Zero Three,
what's your location?

- 67 West Street.

Taking rounds!

Requesting immediate backup.

No.



- Don't flinch.



- So, did you miss this?

Patrol.

I mean,
you spent thousands of hours

earning that detective badge,
but this?

This is simple right and wrong.

- You certainly got that
simple part down.

- Whatever.
Just making conversation.

- Attention all units,
all units respond.

67 West Street.
Shots fired.

Officers on scene.

- That's Dockside.
It's about eight blocks away.



- So, what's the plan?

How long you think we can hold
them until backup arrives?

- We hold on till we can't.

- I didn't see any new
shipment come in, Harlee.

This is the last time we trust
this source of yours.

- It's the last time
we do anything.

- You mind if we get out of
here before you start bitching?

- Hey, hey, cavalry's here.

We've gotta hunker down.

- Dispatch, can you confirm
the call sign

of the officers on scene?

- Officer ID,
Tango Nine Zero Three.

- That's Harlee's number.

- What?
You sure?

- What's he doing?



- Wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait, they're turning back.

- What is this?



- No, no, no, Stone!

Turn this car around right now,
you son of a bitch!

- No, they can't leave us!

Yo, somebody radio dispatch!

- It's the Blue Wall.

Once you cross it,
you're alone.

- Don't do this.
These are good people!

And they serve the same
city as you.

Stone, come on.



Turn around,
or I swear to God,

I'll shoot you right here.

- You lost it.
- You bet your ass.

Stop this car and get out.



- Hang on, guys.
