Third Watch (1999–2005): Season 6, Episode 2 - Alone Again, Naturally - full transcript

The shooting at Mann's apartment is investigated, and all involved stood down for three days. Upon their return Faith gets served, and receives a promotion. Cruz has a new boss and gets an anonymous tip about a rat in the house. T...

Previously, on Third Watch...

No...

These men came
into the hospital.

They were... they were
looking to hurt us,

and they shot Maurice.

He's in surgery.

Far as we can tell, the drug dealer's
after Yokas, Bosco and Cruz.

His name's
Donald Mann, Lieu.

Enjoy the limited life
you have left, Sergeant Cruz.

Is that a threat, Donald?

A guarantee.



Cruz...

What are you doing?

He drew a knife
and tried to stab me,

so you shot him.

I shot him
because he killed my partner.

He was already in custody.

I know.

Say it.

He drew and tried to stab me.

Stay out of this.

You shot a handcuffed prisoner.

I know what I did.

I don't care.

Davis...



We can go.

Yeah?

Yeah. Squad's
all finished.

IAB's still got
to get a piece of us,

but Swersky said
that could wait till tomorrow.

Sasha?

Hmm?

Hey.

Five more minutes.

I'll take you home.

You can get all the
minutes you want.

We can go?

Yeah, we're
finished.

I'll call you
in the morning.

Hey, Sull...

you should probably make that
the afternoon.

Yeah.

They're here.

Good.

We don't got much time.

There is no "we."

I'm not going in on a lie
with you.

This is prison
we're talking about.

It's a murder.

You'll never see
your family again.

What the hell do you care
what happens to me?

He started the day trying to put
you, me and Bosco out of commission.

Now, you do what you're thinking,
and he got two out of three.

It's not about you or me.

It's about not letting him win.

Now say it.

He drew the knife
and tried to stab me.

Fine. Fine.

I'm going to go put those
handcuffs right back on him.

Are you all right?

We're good.

This is the guy
that sent, uh,

the soldiers to the hospital.

Donald Mann.

Why are you wet?

I went in to check on him.

What happened?

Ask Officer Yokas.

Tell him.

He drew a knife and tried
to stab Cruz, so I shot him.

and WARNER BROS. TELEVISION

All right, details,

off the record.

All right, you

saw Yoshi, right?

Yoshi?

Handcuffed to the
railing downstairs?

I never saw Yoshi.

You came up the
big staircase?

That's the only way up here.

He wasn't there?

No, and why would he
be handcuffed?

Well, yesterday...

he begs off the raid
before we were ambushed.

Says he's going
to the funeral.

He never makes it.

Then he shows up at the hospital
when he hears we're all dead.

Why would he think that?

Well, we put it out
that three officers

were fatally shot, so no one else
would show up at the hospital.

We thought you'd
all three be safer.

Did anybody bother to call my family
and tell them that it wasn't true?

Faith, we didn't
use any names.

Damn it. Can I use
your phone?

I'm sorry, Faith.

Yoshi sold our names to Mann.

He admitted it.

He's the one who
brought me here...

showed me where
Mann lives.

And now he's in the wind?

I guess he had
another key.

I was pretty focused on getting
this son of a bitch.

I'm going to find him.

No, no, you're not going
to do anything.

Stay right there.

5-5 platoon commander
to Central, K...

You get hold of them?

No.

They're not home?

Look, you know what?

We're not friends, okay?

I'm just trying to...

All right, don't.

Don't ask about
my family.

Don't make small
talk with me.

Just don't.

IAB's going to have
a field day with this.

IAB?

Yeah, they're going to want
to talk to both of

you, so let's go to the house
and get the paperwork started.

I just hate walking
into a dark apartment.

I'll get the lights.

Knight in shining armor, huh?

Yeah, I wish--

it would've helped when that guy
was Cvkicking my ass.

You saved my life.

I could argue it was
the other way around.

Ooh...

Is it that bad?

- Nah, it's...
- Let's see.

No, it's all right.

It's all right.

Now, don't tell me
you're shy.

Oh, Ty...

It looks worse
than it is.

You should've had
the doctors look at that.

I'm fine, really.

No, you are not fine.

Does that hurt?

Not at the moment, no.

What about that?

No complaints.

There?

I think I can take it.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, Ty...

Well, how much harder can I try?

Your voicemail is all full up.

I keep telling you
to try to empty it.

I...

No, I...

There wasn't anything else
I could do.

No.

Look, why don't you just tell me
where you're staying, and, uh...

and I'll come over,
and I'll talk to them.

Fred?

Fred...

Okay, I think you're going to be fine
with this.

Yeah?

Looks like a whole lot of justifiable
shooting to me.

Easiest time I ever had
with the IAB.

Hey, well, we're not always
the enemy.

Sure.

Did you get
a hold of them, Faith?

What?

Your family?

Yeah, just talked to my husband.

Can I leave?

Can she?

I don't need anything else. Oh.

You know you're both off
for three days,

so come by our office on Wednesday
before you report back to duty.

We can give you
your guns back then.

Is she all right?

It's been a hell of a day.

That's an understatement,
Lieutenant.

Captain Finney, sir,

uh, I was just
finishing up, sir.

As a matter of fact,

that may be the biggest understatement
I've ever heard.

Two cops shot,
four dead perps,

and perhaps the biggest gun battle
in the history of the NYPD.

You took their
statements?

Uh, yes, sir.

It's right there.

And you're satisfied
that all's in order?

I, um... I'm still
investigating...

You said that looked
justified.

So far.

Lieutenant Swersky,

you mind if I talk to Sergeant
here alone?

Actually, Captain, I would.

She's cooperated; she didn't
request a SBA lawyer...

She answered all
the questions...

So she doesn't want
to talk to me?

No, that's not
what I said.

It's okay, boss.

You've already done
what's required.

I'm good.
I got nothing to hide.

All right.

I'll go and type this up.

Shut the door.

So, when I heard

there was a shooting
at the 5-5 tonight,

how'd I know you were going
to be involved?

You didn't call to see
if I was all right?

Well, I went
down to the morgue.

I wanted to see
this Donald Mann myself.

I'll bet he looks
good in a drawer.

You going to tell me
what happened up on that roof?

Your boy has
my statement.

Uniforms at the morgue
said that...

this Donald Mann pulled
a knife on you,

so that Yokas shot him.

Mm-hmm.

You're sticking with that?

That's what happened.

How do you do it?

How do you always find
some low-level cop

to take the heat for you?

Are you accusing
me of something?

Not yet, Sergeant.

You know where I'll be.

Yeah... and I know
where you're going.

We almost lost him
several times

and there's extensive
internal trauma.

But the most visible injury
is the one to his face.

The bullet entered
the upper part of his neck

and exited his cheek
and eye area.

So, will he be able to see?

Eventually.

When would he be able
to go back to work?

Officer Yokas, your partner's
never going back to work.

He'll be lucky if he can walk,
talk or feed himself.

I'm sorry.

Hey, Bosco.

I just talked to the doctor.

He, uh...

He said
you're gonna be all right.

So is your mom.

She's still here,
but she's better.

And hey,

about Donald Mann...

I just want you to know

that I took care of that for you.

Okay?

I...

It's over.

I took care of that for you.

Come back.

You have a good three days?

You know I'd rather be here.

Yeah, but
I don't know why.

Any word on Bosco?

Nothing good.

Yeah, he's tough.

He'll be back.

What happened
to last night's 61s?

They've already
been picked up.

By who?

555 Precinct,
Lieutenant Swersky.

Cruz, wait!

Uh, yes, ma'am.

Cruz!

You're late.

Who the hell are you?

2:45 is when
you're to report.

This is my office.

Not anymore.

You working
prostitution today?

What?

Are you going undercover
as a whore?

No.

Then cover yourself up.

My team will look professional
at all times.

Your team?

I'm Lieutenant Miller,
your new boss.

Cover yourself up and be back up here
in five minutes.

And don't be late again

or I'll bounce you
back into uniform.

Give me room.

Give me room!

Welcome back to all my mandatory
72-hour vacationeers.

I trust you used the time

to brush up
on your summons skills

because that's what 1PP
is screaming for now.

Nobody shoots at me out there,
maybe I'll bring 'em one.

Let's hope the shooting
is done for a long, long time.

All right, we have
some new assignments

now that everyone
is back at work.

Sully, you're with Yokas.

Monroe and Davis,
you two are together.

Cool.

All right, that's it.

Eyes and ears out there.

Drive or ride, Faith?

Doesn't matter.

Yeah, me neither.

Can you give me a second?

Sure.

So you're breaking up
Davis and Sullivan?

Is that a problem?

No, it's not a problem.

I was wondering

if you're putting me with Sully

so he can look
after me or something.

Don't read into it, Faith.

It's just a manpower thing.

You decide yet?

Drive or ride?

Yeah, I'll ride
the first half.

Good enough.

Officer Yokas?

Yeah?

Are you Officer
Faith Yokas?

What do you want?

Your husband is filing
for divorce.

You've been served.

You know, you're a hell of a lot

better-looking than Sully is.

I can say that.

What's wrong?

Did you do this? Did you have
the boss put us together?

How much sway
you think I got?

No, did you?

No.

No.

It's nice though, right?

Ty... not at work.

Come on. Nobody saw that.

Today.

But tomorrow you might
do that at the station

and I don't want people
in my business.

Fair enough.

So... what do
you wanna do?

We could look for a summons

or two for the boss.

Okay, brown-nose.

That sounds good.

Uh, there's my bad girls.

You've got to
be kidding me.

They're, like, ten.

Oh, I'm serious.

What's up?

They're car thieves.

They get a guy to pick them up,

tell him they want to party
and when the stupid bastard

goes into a bodega to get some beer...

bye-bye, ride.

Had them in like four times
in the last year.

Come on, move, damn it!

You should have just drove.

I asked which one you wanted.

Why don't you tell me
where we're going?

I might know
a shortcut.

It's up here on the left.

What's going on
at Midnight Express?

Fred works here.

Faith.

Sully!

You need to talk
to a lawyer about this.

Let me out of the car.

This is not a good idea.

I said let me
out of the car.

Faith, will you
just slow down?

Will you just...

Faith!

Damn it.

Fred Yokas here?

Can I tell him who's asking?

Yeah,

tell him it's his wife.

If they don't show up by 4:00,
the buy is probably off.

We'll scoop them up later,
all right?

But keep me informed.

Yes, sir.

What do they got going on?

Don't worry about it.

Don't worry about it?

Doesn't concern you.

I'm their sergeant.

We're not going to get
into a whole discussion

about how a lieu outranks a sergeant, are we?
- I don't know.

I don't know where you're from...
- What's this?

Payments to informants.

Line six.

For the whole month.

To one guy?

Yeah. He's good.

He's that good?
- Yeah.

I want to meet him.

He's also confidential.

You want to keep paying him,

you're going
to introduce me to him.

I'm not going to blindly
authorize those payments.

All right.

If I see him,

I'll say something.

No, no, no.

Right now.

Come on.

I got work.

Listen to me,
your first big change,

you don't do anything,

unless I specifically
authorize you to do it.

Do you understand?

Now, I need a driver.

I suggest you volunteer.

To be your driver?

That's right.

Come on.

What are you doing here?

You had me served at work?

You're never home. I wanted
to make sure you got them.

I've been at the hospital, Fred.

With Bosco?

Yeah, he's hurt bad.

That's a real shame.

Fred, we have
to talk about this.

It's over, Faith.

No, what about
Charlie and Emily?

They'll live with me.

Excuse me?

You get home when they're asleep;
you wake up after they leave.

The only time you see them
is on your days off,

so you can have them
two days a week.

You're not serious.

I'm dead serious.

Fred, you're a drunk with
a mistress on the side.

What? Do you think some judge
is going to hand our kids over to you?

I haven't had a drink
in three years.

I want them away from you.

Away from me?

Charlie came crying

to me the other night

because he saw on Channel 5

that three cops

from your precinct were dead.

That's what I want
to get them away from.

Fred, I told you that I

didn't even know about that.

That's not good enough, Faith.

It's not good enough for them,

and it's not good enough for me.

Fred, please don't
do this to me now.

I've got a lot going on.

you'll have plenty
of time to deal with it.

Now get away from my job.

Faith, come on.

Tell Bosco I said hello.

Shouldn't we
felony-stop them?

Nah, they're morons.

Ladies.

Long time no see.

Out of the car.

No, stay right where you are

and keep your hand
where I can see them.

- It's cool. I know them.
- All three of them?

You in the back,

exit the right side
of the car.

You two in the front,

keep your hands
where I can see them.

We didn't do nothing.

Unless I ask you a question,

you need to be quiet.

You lookin' good, Officer Davis.

You been working out?

It's a nice car, Val.

You want a ride?

No, thanks, I'm good.

You want to go
run the plates?

Why don't you let her run
the plates and you stay here?

Look, if they just tell us
we could get this handled.

Damn it.

Hold up!

No!

Let me out of here.
That's my sister.

No one's going anywhere

till you tell me
who you lifted the car from.

Oh, you know you ain't
gonna do nothing to us.

Not this time, Val.

We got to put down on paper

what happened
to your girl there.

But that wasn't my fault.

Hey, you want out of the car?

Quit wasting my time.
Tell me what's up.

I want to go to the
hospital with my sister.

That's the wrong answer.

Any luck on whose car this is?

No, I didn't, uh... didn't
put it in the system yet.

Why not?

Here's the thing.

When we find these guys,
they never sign complaints.

Why not?

That's what these
girls look for--

expensive cars
and wedding bands.

So, you have their backs
by not writing up the report?

Why you putting
this on me?

I can't force
them to complain.

Men.

Hey, no, it's
not like that.

So, we have a car theft

from an uncooperative victim.

Probably.

And a teenager
I chased in front of a car.

Yeah.

I need to go
to the hospital.

You can't be
all day.

Guys, just
come on!

You know what Sully says
in situations like this?

Crap.

Crap.

You all right?

How much of that did you hear?

Only what I couldn't help.

How did my life
get so messed up?

I-I'm sure it's all gonna
work out for the best.

5-5 Charlie, return
to the station house forthwith,

authority
of the Platoon Commander.

Fred probably complained.

Well, you did go to his work.

You're right, Sully.

Things are starting
to look up already.

Hathis guy on a string
about three years.

Info's always good.

Yeah, good and expensive.

Yeah, worth it.

What's up, Cruz?

Hey, hey.

How you doing,
girlfriend?

This is Lieutenant
Miller.

Miller,
Patch Monk.

I'd shake your hand, but it wouldn't
really play on the street.

You know what I'm saying?

Yo! Hey, hey.

Drinking on the public
way is a crime.

You know what I'm saying?

What are you doing?

Put your hands up here.

Look what I got here.

Look what I got here.

You have the right
to remain silent.

What are you doing?

Anything you say will be used
against you.

I really want to go
to the hospital.

Talk to me.

I thought you
and me was tight, Davis.

Uh-uh. Not
even close.

Come on, baby.

You know you're just
gonna let us go soon.

You guys are really
starting to piss me off.

This is the last time
I'm gonna say this, okay?

Tell me where the guy is.

Or woman.
Hilda Jenkins--36 Fulton Place.

That's who the car's
registered to.

Have you heard anything
about my sister?

No.

Okay.

Okay. I'm sure there's a guy
involved in this somewhere.

Why don't I go down
to this place,

see if I can find
Mrs. Jenkins?

Maybe if I, you know,

tell her first,

and there won't, you know,

be any reason

not to press charges.

Can I kiss you?

No.

Okay.

No!

All right.

It ain't nothin'
but little bit of weed, man.

You got a sheet, Patch.

Ain't no such thing as a little
dope collar for you.

How are you gonna
do me like this?

Huh?

Hey.

This isn't her.

This is all me.

All right. Well,
what do you want?

What do you got?

You mean information?

Maybe.

Why didn't you just say so?

What kind of information
you want?

A gun, I want tell my guy

where they can get a gun
off the street tonight.

What kind of gun you want, man?

Surprise me.

Why the hell did you do that?

That was my best CI.

He still is.

You think
he's gonna give me play now?

It took me two years
to build his trust.

And now he's gonna
give it up for free.

If he starts looking for money again,
lock him up again.

I'm not running
an ATM here.

When he gives you
the gun, let him go.

Now, I'm gonna go to the head,
then we're back out there.

What I'm suppose to be,
in the Yells, it's not a camp,

it's time to blow of fast
but they just do it as quickly

See, yes sir, no sir,
and that lies too.

Why are you with me today?

What?

Are you watching me
or something?

No.

'Cause I don't need
a baby-sitter, Sully.

Nobody's watching you.

In the roll call room, Faith.

Yes, sir.

Yeah.

Hey, Cruz?

Watch your back.

Who is this?

A friend.

IAB has a plant in the 5-5,
and they're after you.

Who is this?

Watch your back.

Did he
give it up?

Yeah.

Uh... uh...

Just checking.

Hurry it up.

Yes, sir.

We've been having
some problems,

and then today,

he served me with papers,

and I just kind of
freaked out, and, um,

I realize now that I should

have handled it on my own time.

But I want you
to know that, uh,

Sullivan was still monitoring

the radio, and I...

This isn't about Fred?

Downtown is promoting
you to detective.

Excuse me?

Meritoriously.

For what?

As I understand it,

it's a combination

of reuniting that missing girl

with her family last month,

and saving
Sergeant Cruz' life

on that roof
the other night.

The roof...

Not that anyone asked,

but I can't think of a
more deserving officer.

I'll get you a
copy of the order

with when and
where to report.

Congratulations,

Detective Yokas.

Mrs. Jenkins?

Police.

Mrs. Jenkins?

Hello?

Hey, Sasha, listen,

you better separate those girls.

Get some help. I don't think
it's safe to do it alone.

Now, I'm pretty sure they murdered
somebody for their car.

Yeah.

All right.

Crap.

What do you mean
you're not taking it?

I'm not taking the promotion.

Are you crazy?

You'll get out
of the bag.

It's more money, plus
there's going to be a lot of overtime.

It's complicated.

How?

Look, Sully, when Bosco gets out

of the hospital,

I'm gonna get back
in that car with him.

Faith, we've all seen him.

He's not coming back.

You would never
leave Davis hanging.

I think you need to be thinking
about yourself here.

That's all I've been doing,

and I am losing my husband
and my kids.

Look, I know you're going

through a lot right now,

but you need to seriously consider
this opportunity.

You're gonna have
more flexible hours.

That's got to help

in your custody case.

Fred is not getting the kids.

Yeah, my sister swore

that she was gonna get full
custody of her kid, too.

Then the judge cited
her hectic schedule,

and gave the kid
to my lousy ex-brother-in-law.

Was your ex-brother-in-law
a drunk?

No, but from what I hear,

Fred used to be a drunk,

and you're still a cop,

so, if I was you,
I would take this promotion

and get myself a lawyer.

What's going on?

What, you gonna
beat us up now?

You're not worth
the sweat.

Get up.

Get up!

Damn! I'm already in a cage.

Yeah, and you're gonna stay

that way for a long time, too.

Yeah, we'll
see about that.

What's going on?

Officer Davis is
hooking you two up.

You're getting separate cells.

Monroe,
can I have a word?

Yeah.

Where are you going?

Your perp in the hospital died.

I'm sorry, Regina,

but it's your sister.

Cynthia just died in the hospital.

she did it.

What?

Cynthia.

Cynthia killed that old lady.

She killed her for her car.

I didn't even know it
happened until later.

You must have

been flabbergasted.

For real.

So, how'd she tell you?

We was just hanging out,

and she drove up,

and axed if we wanted a ride.

Me and Regina,

and we was, like,

"Cool."

And then she
even asked

if I wanted to

drive, so I was, like,
"Whose car is this anyway?"

And that's when she said it.

She just said

she killed that old lady.

She just came right out
and told you?

Right out.

And that's why she ran
away from you guys.

So, you weren't even
in the house?

What house, sir?

So, uh, you'll write this
all down?

Sign a statement?

Absolutely.

Anything you need.

Only, could I get a soda

or something first?

Sure. Please, Davis,

get her a soda.

Are you really gonna

let Val do this
to your sister, Regina?

I need to tell my mom
about Cynthia.

Uniforms are on their way
over to her house now.

My brother was killed
two years ago.

Imagine when she hears

your sister's going

to her grave a murderer.

God knows what really happened.

It isn't true, is it, Regina?

Val is...

Val is what?

Are you scared of Val?

Nah.

Well, then tell me
what happened, Regina.

Tell me what happened today.

We were just...

We just wanted to go down

to H&M to get some clothes.

But Val didn't want

to ride the subway.

We stood on the corner

for almost an hour,

but no guys came by

that wanted to pick us up.

We were about

to give up,

and then this old lady

drove up in a Audi.

So, we followed her,

and then Val tried

to take her keys,

but she fought with her.

This little old lady fought her.

So, Val got all

pissed, and started...

...started beating her head in

with this wooden thing

that was on the counter.

And then
the lady stopped moving.

So, Val took the keys

and this, like,

medal that was around her neck.

And we ran out.

Where's the medal now?

I think Val's
still wearing it.

She kept showing it to me

in here when you
weren't looking.

She thinks it's
pretty funny.

She won't be laughing long.

If we would've
just rode the subway,

my sister would

still be here.

So would Mrs. Jenkins.

So, where'd you come from?

You mean as a child?

Your last command.

You telling me you don't know?

I ran a detective squad
in Brooklyn.

So, why'd you
get bounced?

Are-are you trying
to piss me off?

Huh?

I didn't get bounced.

I took a new command.

Why here?

I mean, an
Anti-Crime unit

in the 5-5 isn't

exactly a move up.

You know, why don't you

juo yourself a favor

and shut up
and drive?

What are
you doing?

Whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa.

What you doing?

Didn't see?

What are you doing?

Don't resist!

Quit crying!

Sergeant Cruz.

Quit crying!

Please!

Sergeant Cruz.

What?

Uncuff him.

What?!

I said uncuff him.

Not funny.

Uncuff the prisoner,

or I'll bring you up

on insubordination charges

and have your badge

before the end
of the night.

You'd like that,
wouldn't you?

Oh, sweetheart,

that's your choice.

I could care less.

Go on pie, and take a high.

What the hell
was that about?

What did I tell you
this afternoon?

You do nothing

unless I authorize you
to do it.

Ignore crime that's happening

right in front of me?

That's right,

unless I tell you to do

something about it.

Hell no.

Why this Anti-Crime unit
in the 5-5?

Yeah, I want to know why.

Let's hear.

Because you're out of control.

Your whole team's
out of control.

You're a renegade,

overcompensating for the fact

that you're a woman

and a minority hire.

A minority hire.

The days of you
running cowboy

over these streets are over.

We're going back to the basics:

pros, decoys,

pickpockets, guns--

and only if I tell you
to do something about it.

And if you got
a problem with that,

your exit paperwork

is in my desk, filled out,

ready for you to sign.

You think you're going
to scare me off this job?

I don't give you
that much thought.

Now drive me back to the house

so I can sign you out

before you hit me up

for some bogus
overtime charge.

Get in.

You do nice work.

I love a good
slam-dunk like this.

I owe it to my partner.

Yes, you do.

You make a good team.

Yes, we do.

See you out there, Jel.

Wait.

It doesn't say here why
you pulled 'em over

in the first place.

Excuse me?

The initial stop.

What'd you pull 'em over for?

Oh, th-these girls--

every time we see 'em,

they're in a stolen car.

Known felons.

Beautiful.

Are those reports on file?

Reports?

Yeah. 61s and arrest reports

from all the other stops?

Well, Sully and I--

we always just get
the cars returned.

Don't tell me this.

What's wrong?

You need documentation

from prior crimes.

Otherwise, you conducted
an illegal stop.

Yeah, buthe

car was stolen.

But not reported.

They killed the victim.

Look, all you got

is the initial stop.

Everything else came
off of that.

If the stop was bad,
everything else goes away.

Everything?

Everything.

Fruits of a poisonous tree.

All right.

Uh...

What if they ran a stop sign?

What?

Traffic stop works.

Okay. They ran a stop sign,

We asked them
for the registration.

Didn't match the name.

Brought 'em back

here for further
investigation.

So, there's a traffic ticket?

Y-Yes. It's upstairs.

All right, good.

Can I talk to
for a second?

What are you doing?

I'm getting
the conviction.

Theirs or ours?

If it makes you
feel better,

I'll say you were
looking the other way.

You're going to have to testify

to that; that's perjury.

So what? What?

You want to let
these hoodrats walk

on a technicality?

A woman is dead, Sasha.

I stood over the body.

Yeah. If you and Sully

weren't so concerned

about protecting
cheating husbands

all this time, we wouldn't be
in this position.

You got to be kidding me.

They confessed...
to a murder.

What do you need?

Oh, a ticket here,
a ticket there.

Then what? Are you going
to start planting evidence?

Aren't you
being dramatic?

No, I'm not. This is corruption.

Corruption?

Don't tell me
about corruption.

We're making things right,

and if getting
the bad people off

the street means I got
to fudge the truth

a little bit every once in a while,

I can live with that.

You know how many brothers

are in jail

because of cops
with that same mentality?

How many brothers
and sisters get hurt

or killed every day
by people who should be

in jail, but they're not,

'cause they got
around the system?

I'm not going to have
your back on this.

You don't have to.

Fine.

Just so you know,

my new boss is a rat.

You have a new boss?

Yeah.

Son of a bitch named Miller,

Lieutenant Miller.

He's an IAB plant

here to take me down.

- Don't talk to him.
- No problem.

Hey, Sasha.

Hey.

Everything all right?

No.

Is there anything I can do?

You can mind
your business.

I'm sorry, I...

Don't worry about it.

I hear congratulations
are in order.

For what?

She made detective.

Yeah?

Yeah, meritoriously,

for what happened on the roof
the other night.

No kidding.

At least someone had
a good day.

You going to come
to the hospital, Sasha?

Uh, no, not tonight.

I-I just... I got

some stuff I need
to take care of,

but tell him
I said hello.

Absolutely.

How do you know
he's a plant?

Hmm?

Your new boss.

How do you know
he's a plant?

Someone called me
anonymously

and said there was a rat

in the house

and to watch my back.

What do you got?

Nothing.

Why the hell'd
you call me?

I think I may need
to change precincts.

Someone warned Cruz that there
may be a plant in the 5-5.

They say it was you?

No, not really.

She thinks it may be
her new boss.

Cruz sort of trusts you.

We're not going to get this
sort of opportunity again.

Yeah, but they suspect.

Detective Monroe, I need to know

what happened up on that roof.

Sergeant Cruz
murdered Donald Mann.

Now, there's risks
that come with the job.

You knew that when
you signed up for IAB.

What if it happened exactly
they way they said it did?

Yokas saved Cruz's life.

I saw the body.

Mann had handcuff marks
on his wrists.

Do you know how hard it is
to draw a knife

with handcuffs on?

God...

This is not
about a free cup of coffee.

This is about murder.

I get it.

I want her.

Don't call me till you have her.

Get out.
