Vic is enlisted to help save his rivals on the Decoy team from having their undercover operation exposed.

- [Shane] Move!
- [Curtis] Go, boy!

- [Shane] Move!
- [Curtis] Here we go. Get him!

- [Laughing]
- Get outta town.

- [Shane] Ohh! Blast right now.
- [Horn Honking]

[Mara]
That's me.

- Love ya.
- [Curtis] There you are.

- Ohh! Get out!
- [Shane] Damn it!

Respect me, bitch!

[Shane]
I love you too, baby.

- All right. We're goin'again.
- Everything cool with Mara?

- Yeah, why?
- I don't know. Seemed like she was
in a mood or something.



Shit! Everything's fine!

It's just that this first trimester's
like a 90-day P.M.S. Ride.

Yeah! Maybe she thinks you're not
takin' it so seriously?

- We're gettin'married, aren't we?
- What, you set a date?

- No, not yet!
- What about a ring?

Bought her a Lexus!
She can wear that on her finger!

- She knows I love her!
- Yeah, dude, but!!!

A ring lets her show the rest
of the world that you love her!

You gettin' your vagina waxed
next week? Ow!

- Man, you gotta stop that!
- [Cell Phone Playing Tune]

Well, you gotta pony up
for the rock, man!

[Tune Continues]

- Yeah!
- Hey! It's me!

I need you down at
the storage unit A! S! A! P!



- Where's Lem?
- He's with me.

- Is there a problem?
- Not on the phone!

Got here as quick as I could. Figure we'd catch
another case. Who knew it would be this soon?

- Maybe it's a sign!
- What's the situation here?

Actually, it's pretty quiet!
Seems to be a total lack of a situation!

Well, the message I got said that there
was a drug dealer working out of here!

Oh, I may have "over-exaggerated"
the uh, police nature of this call!

- [Dog Whimpers]
- [Chuckles]

And, uh, I suppose you've got!!!

A key to one of
those rooms in there!

Look. We been dancin'around
each other for a couple of years now.

Just wonderin'what would happen
if we, uh, ran out of excuses.

- I'm on duty!
- I'm not.

You got a pager if they need ya!

- I've got a boyfriend!
- [Low Growl]

- We already established that!
- It's really not a good idea!

You're right!
You should get back!

What am I supposed to do with Koto?

- [Squeaking]
- [Barking]

[Sighing, Moaning]

[Phone Ringing]

- [Ringing]
- Do you need to get that?

That's what voice mail's for!

[Squeaking]

[Phone Ringing
With Special Ring]

- [Ringing]
- That's the "Hello" line!

- [Ringing]
- Quiet!

[Ringing]

- Hello?
- Hi, Mama! It's Toya!

- Trish! You all right?
- Nothin'! Just chillin'!

Um, listen! I ain't gonna
make it by for dinner!

- Can you say where you are?
- I'm gonna kick it with some friends tonight!

Holler at Walon for me, all right?

I love you too, Mama!

- [Hangs Up Receiver]
- Trish is in trouble! Walon too!

- No more calls!
- Why? What's up, boo?

That white dude
You hooked us up with is a cop!

- Ah, mm, no, no!
- Undercover!

- Oh, quit clownin'!
- I just got confirmation!

- Where you heard that?
- What do you know about him?

Tips good! Drinks scotch!

Shitty marriage! You know!

I thought we were comin'
here to have some fun!

We could be in some shit!
[Chuckles] You included!

Fifties can't do nothin'!
You ain't even done the whack yet!

No, but I agreed to!

You'll stick with me!

Till I can get this shit taken care of!

A'ight! Just let me check my face!

- [Loud Knocking]
- Who is it?

[Mackey]
It's me. Open up.

What's goin'on?

There's money missing!

- How much?
- We're seven G's short!

I was going through the stash,
getting rid of the marked bills!!!

Couldn't find a few.

So I did a count.
We're missin'seven thousand.

Including some marked money!

- You sure you counted right?
- I triple-checked.

- Somebody dip in before the shit hit the fan?
- I didn't take squat!

- Don't even look at me!
- If somebody did, speak up now, it's forgiven.

The important thing is to figure out
where the marked money was spent.

Before Treasury gets a whiff of us!

I'm serious.

We're the only people who knew it was
here, and the only people with a key!

Last chance!

Aw, come on!

We've been a team through all of this!

Now who took it?

[Rock]

[Men, Women Chattering]

[Ends]

Trish was able to make the call,
so let's assume!!!

Her cover's still intact,
but Walon was made for sure.

- What's the emergency?
- Walon and Trish!

- Any idea where Trish was making the call?
- We're tracing it!

I'm gonna need four units
ready to roll!

Decoy Squad's been working undercover
on a murder-for-hire sting!

Farmtown Twelves'been
doing contract hits...

makin'them look
like drive-bys.

[Softly] Since when is
the Decoy Squad a gang detail?

The feeling was Trish was
our best way into the case!

Walon's supposed to drop the money
for the hit this afternoon...

where, we don't know, but we've got
to get him before the Twelves do!

- You tried his cell?
- He was worried he'd be searched!

Which raises the question
how this happened.

A more important question is,
how are we getting our people back?

Claudette's got us on goddamn
janitor duty the last month!

Meanwhile, Walon's out
hunting down banger trophies!

I didn't take that money!

Okay!

Think there's any chance
Tavon swung with it?

It's not enough you and the missus
put him on life support?

Now you gotta call him a thief?

Look, if he knew about the money,
he would have come to us for a piece!

Just so you know...

I'm gettin' Mara
an engagement ring!

All right!
Just don't go hog-wild!

I'm not!
I'm goin' through Taylor!

You're usin' a fence
to buy your wife her ring?

He knows this guy
who sells 'em wholesale.

- It's all on the level.
- Why not just go down to theJewelry Mart?

'Cause Taylor's guy is cheaper!
And I don't speak Farsi!

- May I help you?
- Just gotta get my cornrows tightened!

- [Knocking]
- What up, homegirl?

- [Chuckles] Man, I'm straight with you!
- I need another favor!

Yeah, well, you're fresh out
of favors, One Time!

You're not hearin' me
too well under there!

[Chuckles] Yeah, I can see why
Pretty Boy drops the cheese...

to keep his female lookin' tight!

Think he'll still keep her laced when he hears
she's been goin'out the back door on him...

- with a Spooktown soldier?
- Still sleepin' with the enemy, Desiree?

- No!
- Trick question!

- We know you are!
- I'm just tryin' to get my hair did!

I need to know who in the Twelves
is selling contract hits!

Pretty Boy don't talk business with me!

Coo in his ear!

You got a half an hour,
or I start cooin' in his!

[Sirens Blaring]

- [David] Hands where I can see 'em. Now!
- [Uniform] Hands up!

[Uniform #2]
Let's see your hands!

[Banging]

[Uniform #3]
Clear in the back!

- Storeroom clear!
- All clear! Canvass it!

What's goin'on?

The Farmtown Twelve made a call
from this phone an hour ago!

- Where'd they go?
- Don't know!

- What were they doing here?
- I let them use my office sometimes!

- Why?
- Beats having them burn it down!

- [Cell Phone Ringing]
- Desiree! 30 seconds to spare!

I was just about to call Pretty Boy! Let him
know his number one cooch was on the loose!

Kaliel Wilks!
Street name, Li'I Psych!

Any idea where we can find him?

Yeah, well you work on Pretty Boy!

- He gives you anything, you call me!
- I'm runnin' it!

Got the address where
Walon's making the meet!

I got the name of their guy
who runs contract hits: ; Kaliel Wilks.

- Got a reputation as a bit of a psycho!
- Ever hear of him?

No, but Shane's on it!

- Have any idea how their cover got blown?
- Maybe they tailed Walon!

[Chuckles] Walon might stink,
but he's not sloppy!

The rapist works in the area...
delivering pizza!!!

Cable TV guy, meter reader...
who knows?

So he uses his job as camouflage
and scopes out his next victim?

Exactly. Thanks for comin'out
on your own time.

- I'm learning tons!
- Still!

Got to be raisin' hell
with your social life!

[Chuckles] Please. I kicked my social
life to the curb last week.

This guy I was seeing bought me this
tennis racket so we could hit together?

Then he insisted that
I leave it at his place!

- Talk about control issues!
- Cop?

No! Just some guy!

- I play!
- Yeah? Are you good?

Yes! I am, actually!
[Chuckles]

I'd say that we should
hit together sometime!!!

But I'm lousy!

Probably bore you!

I'm not that good!

You think I want
this goddamn ulcer?

- I didn't take that money!
- Nobody in here took anything!

- So you gonna ask Shane about it?
- I'd bet on his loyalty before
I'd bet on your math skills.

When we're done with this, I want you
to go back with Lem! Count again!

Check the lock for tampering!

Got a picture of our homey!
Kaliel Wilks, a! K! A! Li'I Psych!

- What took so long?
- Had no rap sheet.
Had to go to his Marine Corps file.

- What, he's a jarhead?
- Was.

He duked it out with his C! O!
They booted him! Section Eight!

Let's see how he feels with
our size elevens up his ass!

Plainclothes has already secured the area.
We'll roll out in 10 to take our positions.

- I! D! 'd our trigger boy! Combat trained!
- Shit!

- Copies for everyone!
- Once Walon's secure,
I'll call to scoop up the Twelves!

- What ifTrish isn't with 'em?
- Haul their asses down here!
Make 'em tell us where she is!

The captain and I will set up
in a surveillance van.

[Mackey] How long has Trish
been into this guy?

He just popped up a few weeks ago! Walon
kept her on the sidelines until he needed her!

She went to work at Polebusters,
got close to the Twelves.

Polebusters?
She's under as a stripper?

Cocktail waitress!
She cozied up to the bangers!!!

They bragged about their
murder-for-hire racket!!!

She introduced them to Walon!

And his murder they'll do for free!

Tell me what I have to do
to get back in.

You hired a thief to break into your home.
A thief that later...

Nojury's gonna believe a
smokehound murderer over a cop.

Your sister-in-law corroborated him.

My lawyer says it's hearsay!

D! A! 's spinning it so the department
has no choice but to wash their hands!

- I need you to talk to him!
- Tommy, you can't come back!

- It wasn't my fault!
- I know you didn't mean for this to happen!

And I can only imagine your pain!
But I can't have you working here!

I'll do what I can to try and make sure
You don't serve any jail time!

- Jail time?
- You have to look out for yourself, now!

And you still have friends here!

- [Door Opens, Closes]
- Tommy? What are you doin'?

Aceveda's makin' me
clean out my locker!

- Walon and Trish are missin'!
- They fell off the grid a few hours ago!

- Let me help. Tell me what I can do.
- Tommy...

Why don't you come over to the house
this weekend? We'll watch De La Hoya!

Sure!

- [Car Radio]
- What the hell is up with that guy?

- [Continues]
- Doesn't look like he's bird-watching!

- [Dutch] Hang on, pal.
- What's up?

- You want to tell me what you're doin' back here?
- Just now?

Check the occupant!
Turn around! Hands behind your back!

- Oh, l-I have permission!
- Hands behind your back!

[Knocking]

Sorry to bother you, sir! We just apprehended
a man looking through your window!

Yo, girl! It's all good!

Dude with her!

- What's wrong?
- Honey, tell them to take these off of me.

- Do you know this man?
- Married to him long enough!

- He's your husband!
- Told ya!

- Look, no one's breakin'the law here, Officer.
We'rejust...
- Playing!

Right! Role-playing?
On the way to work?

With our, uh, friend!

Six hours out there!
All we get is a practicing cuckold!

You see something like that, you wonder if
we all shouldn't stay home and read the Bible!

Thanks! My partner
already does that!

- How you gonna solve this one?
- Well!!!

You don't hope for another victim,
but the fact is!!!

This guy probably hasn't made any mistakes
that's gonna get him caught yet!

- Sorry!
- Yeah!

Well, thanks a lot!

[Annie On Radio]
See any Twelves yet? Or Walon?

No! Nothing yet!

Sit tight!

Farmtown crew comin' in!

Any sign ofTrish?

Negative!

Psych's not with 'em either!

- [Shane] I got Walon.
- Where?

- You should see him!
- Shit. Trish isn't with him either.

- Pick up Walon!
- Give Trish a few more seconds!

They're gonna make him!

[Keying Microphone]
Pick him up!

I got it!

[Mexican Pop]

[Softly]
Psst! Cover's been blown!

- Okay! Ready?
- [Aceveda] Let's move on these assholes!

Trish called the Hello line!
It's a setup!

- Where is she?
- Still missing!

- What do we know?
- Not much!

- Stop those guys!
- We're gonna shake 'em down!
Find out where Trish is!

No, Li'I Psych will make her
as blowing the whistle!

- Let these guys check in!
- Walon says we should let these guys go!

- Keep Trish's cover intact!
- Trish can take care of herself!

- Pull them!
- [Claudette] Shane! Ronnie! Abort! Abort!

I think I forgot my wallet!

[Claudette On Police Radio]
Let 'em go.

What do you mean,
he didn't show up?

Well, how did he know
not to show?

[Rap, Soft]

[Li'I Psych]
I got one morejob to do.

I gotta grease that witness, pick up a quick
ten grand, and we can get the hell out of town!

Just sit tight!

- Hi!
- [Cell Phone Beeps]

- [Sighs]
- What you got for me, Daddy?

How do you say
You met this cop?

I didn't know he was a cop! Why do
we gotta keep talking about this, boo?

- Ow! Ow! [Groaning]
- [Knuckles Cracking]

You know something,
better spit it now!

He's just some white cat that I met up
in the club, wanted his business partner killed!

Please stop! Please!

- How long you know him?
- Few months.

If he's a cop,
then I'm in deep shit too!

Hear me?

I know!

I'll take care of both of us!

Yeah, I'll bet you will!

[Sighing]

Here!

Sniff this!

- Real power shit!
- [Sniffs]

[Chuckles]

No!

I want a clear mind
our first time!

[Kissing Sounds,
Trish Moaning]

[Claudette]
We lost the Twelves in the subway.

Didn't you have
a surveillance detail in place?

Well, the plan was to take
everybody down! You had us abort it!

Look, every available unit
is in on this!

- Who's shakin' the trees?
- We're takin'off right now.

- Any idea how you got made?
- Any idea?

- It's the mole!
- What mole?

The mole in the system! The one I told
You about! Keeps warning the Twelves!!!

Every time a warrant or a wiretap
request is put through!

- We never discussed a mole!
- I.A.D. Is trackin'it for me.

It's in my case notes!
Last week!

- I didn't see that!
- It's in the case notes.

You have people in the field
and no clue what they're doin'?

Hey, easy! If there's a mole, it's not
Claudette's fault that you got made!

It is if she's submitting
wiretap requests for us!

- I sent one yesterday!
- [Walon] Aw, Jesus...

All right, I'll uh, I'll call I! A! D! And see
if they're zeroing in on this mole!

- What else aren't you readin'?
- You and Trish's names
were not used in the request!

I only used the case number.
Her cover is still good.

- What if it's not?
- L-I must have read this quickly!

This!!! Mole thing
just didn't register!

I don't get her back in one piece,
I'll use every goddamn favor I've banked!!!

For the last 14 years
to get your lazy ass fired!

[Chattering On Police Radio]

Come on!

[Door Opens, Slams]

Everyone seems to have heard of
Li'I Psych, but no one can locate him for us!

- What have you got?
- I! A! D! 's preliminary look into the mole!

- They've only had the case a week!
- Lemme guess! They got shit!

Not exactly! They've narrowed it down
to court offices on Hoover!

- How many employees there?
- 26 F. T.E. 's.

- Give me five minutes with them,
I'll find your mole!
- What does five minutes entail?

- A shortcut you can live with!
- I'll come with you!

- Ligature marks!
- [Woman] Both strangled manually!

- Time of death?
- Off the top of my head, four hours ago!

Oh, for Christ...
I was three blocks away then!

Landlord found them when
he brought the mail in.

Said this one's her daughter!

Been lookin' after her mom
every day, apparently!

- Goddamn it!
- You get this worked up over a crime scene?

I been after this guy for a month and a half.
Now two people are dead...

- because I didn't catch him!
- Presence of semen...

- on the older victim's abdomen!
- The other victim wasn't raped, obviously?

Have to wait for the coroner's report.

Three blocks! Horseshit!

It's gotta be the cuddler! Daughter
came home, interrupted the rape!!!

Killed her, finished his business!!!

- And murdered the older woman!
- He's never gotten this violent!

- What makes you so sure it's your guy?
- It's him!

- Witness give you anything?
- What witness?

Saw a man leaving
the building this morning!

Uh, excuse me, ma'am, you saw someone
leaving this house earlier?

Yeah, about 8:00!
L-I was walkin' my dog!

- Did you get a good luck at him?
- He walked right past me!

I was pickin' up
after my dog at the time!

You know, not enough people
in this neighborhood do.

If you hear anything about Li'I Psych,
You just buzz me pronto!

All right?
These aren't stolen, right?

- I'm not givin' my fianc?e stolen shit!
- No, no, no, no!

Look, it's on the level, all right? Hey!
[Chuckles] Check this one out, right?

This brother caught his fianc?e bent over
pullin' a train with his groomsmen!

Now, you can imagine his desire
to relieve himself of it!

I'm tryin' not to!
What else you got?

Okay. Uh... Oh, that's
a killer piece of ice.

What's the backstory?

Diamond guy I know had a bad run
at the racetrack.

So he unloaded a little inventory
on me below cost!

Yeah, it's beautiful!

Check out the four C's: ;
cut, clarity, carats and color.

Yeah, what about the fifth "C"?
Cost!

- Two grand!
- [Softly] Two grand.

But listen, you give a bitch
a rock like that!!!

She will get on all fours
for you and bark like a dog!

- She's my fianc?e!
- Two G's will keep her that way!

Ruff, ruff, ruff!!
[Chuckles]

You get pounds of paperwork
comin' at you every day!

Detective duty on top of that...
anyone could have missed it!

Yeah!

Your real problem was goin'
with the Decoy Squad...

and leaving your starters
on the bench!

The gangs are our thing.

- Okay, listen up!
- Attention, please!

- Police! Everybody on your feet!
- Let's go!

You, you, you, you back there,
and you two in the corner!

- Come with me!
- What's this about?

- Police business. Keep typing.
- I'm getting Judge Banks!

Faster than that!

- Where are you from?
- Detroit!

- Santa Monica!
- Go sit down. You?

- Jersey City!
- Compton!

- You go, you stay! You?
- Leimert Park.

- Inglewood!
- Where'd you go to school?

Belmont.
[Scoffs]

- How about you?
- Wilson!

Oh, that's bad for you.
It's not in Compton.

- I moved to Farmington when I was ten!
- What block did you live on?

- Earl Street!
- You two, split!

- You know any Farmtown Twelves?
- Who didn't?

- [Mackey] You been giving them
a heads-up on our warrants?
- No.

Sure you did. You gave up
a wiretap yesterday.

- You gave up a cop!
- N-No!

- Here come de judge!
- Listen, I'm gonna have the big boy here...

crawl up your ass and find out
who you been hangin' with!

How much do you want to bet
he finds gang ink on your taint?

Answer now or spend the next
eight to ten wishing you had!

Raheem Parems!
"Pretty Boy!"

What the hell is goin'on here?

Judge Banks!
We need a warrant!

I'm gonna barely be able
to make rent this month!

But the look on Mara's face!!!

Will make it all worth it.

[Puffs Air] You think there's any chance
Vic took that money?

What?

He's gettin' a divorce,
a mortgage, rent...

Kid with special needs!

It's not like he hasn't taken
the money before without tellin' us!

Just shut the hell up!

Who's "Nancy"?

- [Banging On Door]
- [Curtis] Police, open up!

Hey, man! Ease up on my door!
That's real oak!

- Ain't that Home Center shit!
- Hands against the wall, Pretty Boy!

Ah, Desiree! Spending a quiet day
at home with your man, huh?

- Must be love!
- Turn around, honey! Spread 'em!

Go on and search!
Ain't nothin' on me!

- Sit your ass down, skidmark!
- Lookin' for your boy Psych!!!

And some bar skank
he's hanging with!

- We ain't seen or spoke in weeks!
- Really?

'Cause I got a county clerk cryin' about how
she gave you and him some police intel!!!

Just yesterday.

[Claudette]Just tell us where
Li'I Psych and the woman are.

- We'll forget we were here!
- Y'all don't know nothin'!

Aw, I know a few things.

Maybe a few that might surprise you.

- Wanna know what I know, Chunk?
- Just go on and tell him where Psych at, Raheem!

- You shut your face, girl!
- Look, you said yourself
he wasn't nothin' but trouble!

Why you think
they call him Psycho?

Don't let that fool
bring the whole crew down!

- Call him up!
- Hell, no!

You know what? Forget this!
I ain't messin' with no fool!

And I damn sure ain't waitin'
around for no jailbird, neither!

Now you call him
or I'm out the door!

Mm! A little rounder!

Yeah! Yeah, like that!
That's perfect!

Let's see!

- I thought you said you got a good look at him!
- Yeah, that's him!

This is an ear attached to a head!

- It's a pretty good drawing!
- Did he have a couple of eyes,
maybe a nose and a mouth?

- Don't take that tone with me!
- This doesn't help us!

He walked by quickly!
As I think I mentioned!!!

I was scooping poop
at the time!

[Julien]
Just heard.

You okay?

Aceveda didn't
lift a finger for me.

What am I gonna do,
work security?

We all end up there
in 20 years anyway!

Hey, Tommy! You got some pretty big stuff
hangin' over your head right now!

Hey! You got him to give
You your job back!

[Sighs]
Different situation!

Yeah, but you know what to say.
Maybe he'll listen to you.

All right!

- You don't want to talk to him!
- No.

- Look, I will.
- You think this was my fault!

- No, I don't.
- You just name a night.

Vanessa and I will have you over for dinner.
We can talk about where you should go.

Oh, you mean God's plan?
Yeah, thanks!

Appreciate it!

Gotta do this hit
and get paid! Let's go!

I don't know why you're draggin' me into
this, Kaliel! I don't wanna see that shit!

You brought that cop in to buy a hit!
That makes you just as guilty!

- [Cell Phone Ringing]
- Might as well be in on the shit.

- Yeah!
- Li'I Psych! Where you at?

- [Clicks Fingers]
- Goin' to that job on Doyle Street!

- Oh, really?
- I'm about 10 minutes out.

- You know the spot, right?
- 2130 Doyle! Why?

- You know the spot, right?
- 2130 Doyle! Why?

[Chuckles] I'm just makin' sure you know!
You holler back when you finished!

- I'll cash you out!
- [Beeps, Hangs Up]

- What the hell are you doin'?
- Got you an address, man!

If I told him to stop, he'd have known
something was up!

The mark's in there?

Ratted on a "G", so his
Christmas has been canceled!

Look, boo, the cops are
after us!

Maybe we shouldjust
bounce on outta here.

I don't get my paper
till this snitch starts leakin'!

It's on!

- What are you doin'?
- [Gun Fires]

- What the hell you doin'?
- [Blow Landing, Grunting]

[Grunting, Screaming]

[Car Door Slams,
Engine Starts]

Vic!

[Tires Squealing]

- [Siren Blaring]
- Trish!

Get an ambulance!

- Can you talk?
- [Coughing] Gray Monte Carlo!

I got the plate!

- It says, "To Nancy, Love Donald!"
- Really?

I checked our computers! It was
reported stolen two weeks ago!

Yeah!
That sounds about right!

- I told you to get me a ring that wasn't hot!
- But-But you gave me the code!

- What code?
- Well, you winked!
Like this was all on the hush-hush!

- I didn't wink!
- Yes, you did!

- No, I didn't!
- How did you expect to get
a $10,000 rock for two? Huh?

[Sighs] Look, can you get me one
that's on the level or not?

Yeah, but it's gonna cost you
like three or four!

- Well, just get me a ring that I can use!
- Okay! Okay!

Paul and Chris spotted
the license plate number you gave us!

I had 'em hang on,
so you could hook him up!

Thanks!

[Grunts]
At least your stuff was good!

It's a relief that you're all right!

A little worse for the wear,
but I was never the Miss America type!

I had to do some coke
to keep my cover!

I'll put an injury on duty
for you!

- Do you need to see a doctor?
- I should get checked out for S! T! D! 's!

- Get the morning after pill!
- Son of a bitch!

Well, if you feel that
You need to talk to somebody...

I put a guy out of
the murder business! I'm okay!

[Door Opens]

[Door Slams]

- So sorry, Trish!
- Oh, that's cool!

- 'Course, that may be the coke talkin;
- [Knocking]

You ready?

Hi! Didn't expect
to see you so soon!

This is Hunter,
my boyfriend!

- Can we talk to you?
- Uh, sure!

[Buzzer Sounding]

Tell him what you told me.

Tell him.

What happened today was a mistake!
It can't happen again!

And?

I'm with Hunter!
Don't call me!

Got that?

Elderly victim,
same geo-profile!

Elderly victim,
same geo-profile!

Apartment was visible from the street,
just like all the others!

- It's gotta be him!
- Lucas said they found semen at the crime scene!

I thought your guy
didn't ejaculate!

Maybe he found killing arousing!

This guy makes the first
two killings of his life!!!

And then spends
the next couple hours cuddling?

I thought the other rapes were in
the early evening! This was early morning!

Danny, uh, you saw me
put my gun in my locker, right?

- Yeah! I think so!
- I can't find it!

Be right back!

Tommy?
What are you doin'?

Walk away!

- Okay! Get out of the car!
- My lawyer says I should plead out!

You don't have to do
anything you don't want to!

That way I'd get less than a year.
Goddamn prison.

- We can make sure the truth comes out.
- Truth is I deserve more!

No, you don't! Come on!
We can talk about this!

Look, man, you got people
inside who care about you!

Julien, me! We know
what you're goin' through!

Yeah, I can see that!

[Sighs]

Let me talk to Aceveda! He's got pull!
He can use it if he wants to!

I can make him
change his mind.

- So now you'll talk to him!
- Yeah! I should have done it before!

[Sighs] Tommy, you still got family!
Let us help you!

Okay! Get Aceveda!

- Gimme the gun!
- Let's hear what Aceveda's got to say first!

Okay! All right, good!

Hey, officer in distress!
Outside! Officer in distress!

- Officer in dist...
- [Gunshot]

- This way.
- Shot fired!

What's goin'on?

- Somebody radio for a paramedic.
- Radio for a paramedic!

- All right, come on. Let's go.
- [Chattering On Police Radio]

The department's providing
a counselor tonight.

And you two can
leave early to attend!

- He was a coward!
- He thought thejob was all he had left.

Yeah, and we have to clean up
his mess again.

The session's at 8:00
at the Fischman Center!

Thanks! I think I'll pass!

[Door Opens]

[Door Closes]

- So?
- We're seven G's short! Just like Ronnie said!

- And the lock?
- Not a scratch!

Besides, who's gonna steal seven grand
and leave a fortune behind?

So which one of us did it?

Huh?

None of us did it!

Look, this whole Tommy thing
has got us all a little raw!

Ronnie reported
the money missing!

Lem didn't even want
to steal it in the first place.

So when are you gonna
talk to him?

- Day from hell, huh?
- Yeah! Worst on record!

Even if they don't realize it yet,
You're the one who got 'em back safely!

- I thought you were talkin' about Tommy!
- That too.

What about that murder/rape?

At first it felt like the cuddler,
but then I threw that out.

Your first instinct's pretty good.
What's your gut say?

That the daughter showed up unexpectedly!
He killed her to keep from getting caught!

Murder excited him!
So much so that he finally orgasmed!

- Gets off on murder?
- Why would he cuddle for hours afterwards?

Witness saw a man leaving the house
well after the time of death!

- Maybe he left and came back!

Came back to the house.
The bodies hadn't been discovered.

- See what he'd done!
- Show the whole world how potent he is!

Sick. But it's plausible.

You gonna see that counselor?

There's something else
I've been putting off!

Listen, Julien! Sometimes suicide puts
thoughts in people's heads, you know?

Why don't you go with me?
See what that guy has to say!

Well, I guess that's the last thing on my
mind right now! I'm in a much better place!

I've got Vanessa, Randall...

- We're gonna start our own family!
- All right!

- Call me if you want to talk!
- Okay!

It's pretty late, sir, and you've already
missed your last three appointments!

I'm a cop! My schedule's kind of crazy!
Can you just get me in now?

When you're done,
place the specimen here!

There's some visual materials
there, if you like!

Okay!
[Coughs]

- [Sighs]
- [Pants Unzipping]

[Walon]
Where is she?

- Whoa! Take it easy, man!
- Stay out of this!

Hey! I'm with you!

Come here!

She belongs behind a desk, not messing
with what we do on the street!

It doesn't mean anything! She's got
Aceveda and the chief in her pocket!

You think I give a shit about that?

She's been playing both of us
against each other from the jump!

Now, we start playin' ball together...

She can't command
if we don't let her!

Great minds think alike!

- [Knocking]
- [Sighs]

[Nurse] Do you need anything?
We're closing up in five minutes.

I'm fine!
[Sighs]

[Cell Phone Ringing]

- Yeah!
- It's me!

I'm sorry about before!

He caught me in a lie, and
he kept wanting more details!!!

- And I just didn't want to lie anymore!
- How are you?

I have some things
I have to work out!

- I've been with him for four years, and...
- I understand!

- [Shower Running]
- Listen, don't do anything on my account!

- I know!
- Sorry you got put in this position!

- I'm not!
- Okay!

- Okay!
- [Hangs Up]

[Alternate Pop]

You think you can buy me off?

- Sit down!
- I'm cleaning!

I need you to sit down!
Why don't you sit down?

Playing my favorite song
is not gonna work either!

[Sighs]

- It's for the baby!
- What if it's a girl?

Just open it!

[Gasps]

[Chuckles]
It's incredible!

[Continues]

I've just been such a pain!
It's just that being alone and...

- Don't worry about it!
- And dealing with my mother...

You're not your mother!

And I'm nothing like my father!
This thing's gonna work!

Oh, baby!
[Whimpers]

- I love you!
- I love you too!

[Footsteps]

Vic?

Hey!
What's goin' on, man?

- Bad timing!
- No! We, uh...

Wejust got engaged.
Officially.

Look!

- That's nice!
- What's up, man?

It can wait.

- You sure?
- Yeah! You celebrate, celebrate!
