(horns honking)

(indistinct chatter)

Excuse me.

Hey, come on, man, just watch
where you're standing, please.

MAN 2:
Hey, sit over here.

MAN 3:
Hey, chill out, all right?

MAN 1: You stepped
on my foot again.

Please don't do
that, all right?

MAN 3: Look, I'm sorry.
Would you just relax?

What the hell is
your problem, man?

You stepped on my foot,
like, three times.

MAN 3:
Just get out of my face.

I don't want any trouble.

Hey, if you do it again,
jackass, you're a dead man.

Yeah, whatever.

(horn honks)

(people grunting)

MAN 1: I warned you, man.

MAN 3: Dude, it's the bus.
It's not my fault.

NYPD. Drop the knife!

Go to hell!

Hey! Move!

(people screaming)

(grunting)

BYSTANDER:
Keep pressure on it.

WOMAN: You'll be okay.
Call an ambulance.

Get up.

(sighs)

(distant sirens)

Now that's just wrong.

What do we know?

Not much.

Warehouse has been
shut down since July.

Security patrol
spotted a busted gate

a couple hours ago
and called it in.

Some poor uni had
the unique experience

of finding this horror show.

TAYLOR: They made no attempt
to conceal the body.

Whoever did this knew
it would be found.

Well, they either didn't care,

or they were sending
a rather emphatic message.

Check out the prison ink.

Our boy has gang ties.

"41-6-12" stands for D.P.L.

Dios, Patria, Libertad.

God, Fatherland, Liberty.

The Dominican National Motto.

Nobody loves
a good dismemberment

like the Latin street crews.

If this is gang-related, it
may be more than murder.

It could be
a declaration of war.

(phone vibrating)

(siren chirping)

Hello?
Hello?

Who was it?

I don't know; we got cut off.

Lovato!

Interrogation room, now.

I recognized your number
on the vic's caller I.D.

I know it was you on the
other end of that line.

The phone log shows
you called the vic

17 times today,
all within a few hours

of the poor bastard
being cut in half.

Look, I didn't do
anything wrong.

Convince me. Who's the body

in that warehouse, and what's
your connection to him?

What the hell's going on, Lovato?

Vic's name is Benny Madera.

He was a part
of a drug case I worked.

Why did you call him today?

There was a new development.

You should have called
your supervisor.

I did.

I told my DEA liaison
everything.

You don't believe me?

Robert Hicks.
Go check for yourself.

I had a responsibility to tell
Benny his life was in danger.

And how did you know that?

(sighs) One of his associates
made me as a cop this morning.

MAN:
I warned you, man!

MAN 2: Dude, it's the bus.
It's not my fault.

- NYPD! Drop the knife!
- Go to hell, man.

(overlapping shouting)

(man gasping, woman screams)

I think I'm the reason
why Benny's dead.

Benny was known

as Toro on the streets.

Benny the Bull.
33 years old.

He's got priors for possession,
distribution, assault,

all kinds of weapons charges.

This guy's been in and out of
jail since he was 15 years old.

LOVATO: He was one of the subjects
on an undercover narco case

I was on before I got
transferred into homicide.

What was the assignment?

Infiltrating a crew of local
Trinitario gang members,

gathering intel
for a joint NYPD/DEA task force.

Benny was an up-and-comer.

He was well-respected and
trusted by the other players.

He also had a good eye
for fresh talent.

DANVILLE: He was your
way into the gang?

It took me months
to get under his radar,

but as soon as I did,
he took me under his wing.

After that, everybody knew
me as Anita Castillo,

a member of Toro's crew.

How long were you under?

17 months.

A long time to live your life
as someone else.

Must have seemed
like an eternity.

I was building a strong case,

learning routines,
making connections.

Investigation was
right on track,

and then just like that,
it was over.

Your cover was blown?

I had no other choice
but to walk away.

As far as the Trinitarios

were concerned,
Anita Castillo just disappeared.

And it would have stayed like that

if I hadn't taken the
bus this morning.

Didn't even recognize her

at first,
but the look in her eyes said

she knew exactly who I was.

And then I remembered
where I saw her.

(Spanish rock music playing)

Toro sent me.

MAN:
Bye, Mama.

(laughter)

MAN 2:
She looks good, huh?

(indistinct chatter)

(Spanish music playing)

Toro sent me... with this.

Blood at the scene was a bust.

It all came from a
single donor, the vic.

- Any prints?
- A handful, but no hits in AFIS.

I think they were just left
by old warehouse employees.

Well, the Trinitarios do know how
to clean up after themselves.

You're thinking someone
in his own crew murdered him?

TAYLOR: He rolled out the
red carpet for a narc.

In gang culture, that's a sin
that can't go unpunished.

What about the girl on the bus...
could she have done this?

Maybe, but not without
the approval of a bigger player.

TAYLOR:
So, the question is,

who did she report to
after seeing you?

Let's pick her up and find out.

LOVATO: We can't.
I don't know her name.

But you do know where
she was sitting on the bus.

All right, I'll call the MTA.

LINDSAY:
You don't have to.

The stabbing made the
bus a crime scene.

It's already parked
in the impound lot.

(horn honking)

?

Sid, take a look at this.

Well, whatever it is,

that's certainly a
unique shade of green.

Not one of Mother Nature's own?

Oh, perfect timing, Jo.

Uh, there's lots to tell you.

Well, start by telling me

how our victim ended up
in two pieces.

Of course.

Uh, the violent transection
occurred between

the rib cage and pelvis,
penetrating

mostly soft tissue, but also
severing the spinal column.

There were significant
breakaway spurs and splintering

on the terminal side from
where the vertebrae was cut.

That's consistent with the force
provided by a motor-driven saw.

But which kind?

Periodic striations on the bone

rule out the circular
or reciprocating varieties.

Leaving one likely culprit.

This man was cut in half
by a chain saw.

Even more disturbing,

the rawness of the surrounding
flesh suggests that our victim

was still alive
when the sawing began.

HAWKES:
Fortunately, the shock

and massive blood loss
wouldn't have

- kept him that way for very long.
- Right.

Can you tell me
why his legs are frozen

in this kneeling position?

Spontaneous onset of
rigor as the result of

cadaveric spasms.

More specifically:
tetany.

Muscle contractions caused by

prolonged periods
of continued stimulation.

In this case, caused by

repetitive and deliberate
electric shocks.

- He was tortured first?
- Yeah.

Confirmed by these
electrical burns.

DANVILLE: So what do you think
caused these penetrating wounds?

Not sure, but I'm hoping
these green flakes I found

embedded in the tissue
will shed some light.

(screen beeps)

(Ross groans)

Little heads up on the
slasher flick would be nice.

Got something, Adam?

Well, yeah, besides nightmares
for the next three weeks.

Okay, we got a CODIS hit on
our mystery girl from the bus.

DNA on her soda straw
is a match to Carmen Vega.

Rap sheet a mile long and known
gang tie to the Trinitarios.

Good work.

Thanks.

(gagging)

(sirens wailing)

FLACK:
Carmen Vega, NYPD!

Stop!

(sirens wailing)

Stop! Hey!

Carmen, give up!
Give up!

It's over, Carmen.

FLACK: Get down
on the ground now

and put your hands up!

Don't do it.

It's too far;
you won't make it!

(gasps)

(screaming)

Yeah, Lovato...
she's a pretty good cop.

She's got a bright future.

Agreed.

Thank you for meeting
with us, Agent Hicks.

- Much appreciated.
- Yeah.

Heard you had
a little falling out

with Carmen Vega earlier today.

Young woman made a bad decision,
paid for it with her life.

Yeah.

Gallows humor...
occupational hazard, I guess.

DANVILLE:
We believe Carmen ran

because she's involved
with Benny Madera's murder.

I heard that, too.

Carmen may have been
connected to Benny's murder,

but she didn't act alone.

We need background information
on her associates.

Let me show you what I've got.

Come on in.

Trinitarios...
one of the fastest-growing gangs

on the East Coast.

And one of the most violent.

They originated inside the New
York Department of Corrections?

Yeah, as a protection squad
for Dominican inmates.

They got tired of working
for other gangs.

They decided
to unify on the streets

under their own identity.

Now they got a presence in
neighborhoods all over the city,

and they're starting to
spread to the suburbs.

Anywhere they can sell
their drugs and guns.

As long as they do,
Mexican and Colombian cartels

will keep providing
them with product.

Where does Benny fit in?

Benny?

Middle management
in a splinter crew

out of Washington Heights.

He had a dozen or so runners,
drug dealers working for him.

Who did he take orders from?

Well, my best guess is

one of these three
mystery lowlifes.

Lovato was supposed to find out
who they were, but Benny...

he was always very careful.

Never mentioned a name
or anything else

that would expose
who was above him.

What do we know
about Carmen Vega?

Low-level foot soldier.

Not much street cred to speak of.

Seeing Lovato on that bus

provided the perfect opportunity
to change that.

Carmen was the only one who
knew Lovato's real identity.

And that Benny had
vouched for a cop.

Sharing information
with the right person

would have ensured her
instant career advancement.

Mm-hmm.
Have a seat.

So what about Detective
Lovato's safety?

I need to know
they won't target her next.

Well, even the Trinitarios
wouldn't cross that line.

Going after a cop
would bring too much heat.

And even if they wanted to,
they're not gonna get the chance.

- Why's that?
- Well, in a few days,

a grand jury is gonna hand
down a RICO indictment

on the Trinitarios.

60 counts, 21 defendants.

And once they flip,

we're looking at, uh,
two dozen bonus convictions.

Look, I'm sorry about
Carmen and Benny,

but if they weren't dead
already, they'd be spending

the rest of their miserable
lives behind bars.

That doesn't change the fact
that we have a murder to solve.

I think Benny was killed to send
a message to the Trinitarios

not to make the same mistake.

Whoever did it wanted people
in his crew talking about it.

We need to find out
what they're saying.

If there's chatter
on the streets, I got a C.I.

in my bag that's gonna
tell us all about it.

?

Raymond wants to
tell you something

about the Benny Madera murder.

- Come on.
- Yeah!

Come on.

I'm listening.

Okay, if I was a cop, I'd be
looking for a boy named Toasty.

Toasty?

He's been in Benny's crew
for about a year.

Real name is Hector.

I don't remember his last name.

How'd you know Hector was
involved in Benny's murder?

Toasty's got a big mouth, okay?

He's been bragging
about doing Toro with

a chain saw in some
warehouse on the West Side.

- Where'd you hear that?
- Around the way.

Come on.

All right, all right,
go wait by the car.

Look, the kid's
got a bad attitude,

but he's the real deal.

When it comes to
reliable information,

he's batting at thousands.

If Raymond said he heard

Toasty killed Benny,
trust me, that's who did.

(cell phone vibrating)

(phone beeps)

What do you got, Sheldon?

The trace from the electrical
burns on Benny's chest

is automotive paint.

As you know, manufacturers
use slightly different

paint components and pigments
for each model made.

They also change
the formulas every year.

Right.

So I ran the sample
through the diffractometer,

then compared
the isolated phases

to the various OEM databases.

Came back as a GM color
called Seamist Green...

aka Springfield Green
and Pinehurst Green.

That formulation
was only used in 1972,

but on eight of GM's most popular.

Skylark, Firebird, Camaro,
just to name a few.

Run them through DMV,
compare registrations

to known associates
of the Trinitario street gang.

Anything else you can give me
to narrow this down?

Hold on.

Hey, Raymond.

Toasty own a green car?

Yeah, a Buick.
Bought it off his old man.

Refine your search
to only '72 Buicks.

Title transferred to
a Hector from an owner

of the same last name.

Okay, I'm on it.

What's, uh, what's going on?

Looks like Raymond's hitting
streak might still stand.

Hector "Toasty" Mendez.

This guy should get a gold medal
in the felony Olympics.

He's got 17 arrests this year

and two open drug
warrants to boot.

If he killed Benny, warrants
are the least of his worries.

Yeah.

I never would have pegged
you as an undercover.

I guess that's kind of the
point though, isn't it?

Yeah. Kinda.

(both laugh)

You know, the view inside
wasn't what I expected.

After a while, targets stop
looking like targets

and they started looking like...
ordinary people.

Ordinary people
who sell drugs to kids

and solve their problems
with a chain saw.

Boys like that get recruited
as young as nine.

Now, that's not an excuse

for what they grow up to become
and things that they do.

They join 'cause they want to
feel loved, accepted, safe.

Things they don't feel at home.

Things I didn't feel at home.

You found a better way.

I got lucky.

Went to go live with my abuela.

She made my brothers and me
feel special, protected.

But it came pretty damn close.

Flip of a coin, I wouldn't be
sitting in a cop car,

I'd be running from it.

That doesn't mean
we should take it easy

on the ones who weren't so lucky.

Somebody breaks the law,
they get locked up.

End of story.

But not all offenders are the same.

People can surprise you sometimes.

What about Benny Madera?

Did he surprise you?

(lively chatter)

("After Dark"

You want my money...

you're gonna have
to earn it the hard way.

(grunts)

Was that hard enough?

(speaks Spanish)

You handle yourself
real good, chica.

I'm good at a lot of things.

¿Cómo te llamas?

Anita.

I'm Benny.

Mi amigos call me Toro.

Interested in being
my friend, Anita?

Friends I got.

A job's what I need.

I'll make you a deal.

and I'll put you to work.

? Now I know her secret name.

There's our guy.

You all right?

- Yeah, never better.
- Cochina!

(speaking Spanish)

Hey! Moron, one
more word out of you,

and I'm gonna duct
tape your mouth shut.

(horn honking)

TAYLOR: We've got you at
25 vials of crack, Toasty.

Those drugs weren't mine.

They were in your pockets, Hector.

I was holding them for a friend.

You've got an answer for everything.

So tell me why you
murdered Benny Madera.

(chuckling): Hells, no, you ain't
pinning that on me.

Then who did kill Benny?

All I know is what I heard.

The Bull got got, 'cause he was
played by the hot lady cop.

TAYLOR (over speaker):
We found your green Buick.

HECTOR: Great, 'cause I lost it.
When do I get it back?

TAYLOR:
Never.

It was recovered from
an abandoned lot in Queens.

Somebody doused
the interior with gasoline

and set it on fire.

Most likely in an attempt
to destroy evidence.

But, you know,

the beauty of a 1972 Buick
is very few plastic parts.

Means the fire
spread nice and slow.

Gave the FDNY plenty of time
to put out the blaze

before the car and its contents
were completely burned.

Guess what we found
in your trunk.

The jumper cables and battery
used to torture Benny.

As well as the chain saw
used to cut him in half

while he was still alive.

You got a clever explanation
for that, Hector?

I had nothing to do with
those things, I swear.

Then why were
they in your car?

Other day my homegirl Carmen
stops by my place.

Says she needs to borrow
my ride to run some errands,

so I gave it to her, but
she never brought it back.

Who knows?

Maybe it was Carmen
who sawed off the Bull.

Too bad you can't ask her.

So you're blaming
Benny's murder on Carmen?

Just keeping it real, Detective.

Call me Honest Abe.

I cannot tell a lie.

That was George Washington.

(scoffs)
Same difference.

(groans)

(door opens, shuts)

What's her problem?

We got the guy.

(door opens)

(door shuts)

(siren wailing)

(sighs)

L, want to talk about it?

No.

Hey, come on,
you're gonna have

to come clean with me
sooner or later.

Is there something
that you want to know?

Go ahead.

Ask me.

All right.

Your relationship with Benny

was more than professional,
wasn't it?

Go to hell, Flack.

Oh, come on. Hey!
Whoa, hey!

Am I wrong?

Because from where I
stand, it looks to me

like you're taking Benny's death

a little more personal
than maybe you should.

Damn right I'm gonna take
Benny's murder personally.

Because you had
feelings for him?

Because I owe him my life.

(Lovato speaks Spanish)

Siéntate.

¿Todo bien?

I know, Anita.

I know what you really are.

A cop.

That's crazy.

- You know I would never
front like that. - Stop.

I'm not mad.

I understand you did
what you had to do.

It's the way
this game is played.

I just wish it had been
anybody but you.

You're better
than all this, Benny.

You have to know that.

You have to walk away, chula.

And never show your face
around here again,

'cause if you do
there's only one way out

for either one of us...

that's with blood.

How'd he make you as a cop?

He never told me.

He didn't tell
anybody else either.

Because if he would have,

I would've been hanging in that
warehouse right next to him.

So the whole time
you were busy playing Benny,

he was busy falling
in love with you.

That's why I was relieved
to walk away.

Different time, different place,

something might have
happened between us.

But my job means more to me
than just about anything.

So if you think for one second

I would do anything to
jeopardize that, you're crazy.

(siren wailing)

?

ROSS: The fire obliterated
the interior of the car

along with any trace
that might've been in it.

I did, though, uh, get a partial
print on the door handle.

All right, good.
Maybe we'll get lucky with AFIS.

What about the saw?

Eh, this blade's covered in
blood, tissue, bone fragments.

I'll bet the farm, it comes
back to Benny Madera.

Well, looks like we got
our murder weapon.

Yeah, but the heat melted
the plastic handles

and any chance of pulling
a print off of 'em.

Same thing with the jumper cables.

But at least now we know what
caused the vic's chest wounds.

Green paint flakes could've
transferred to the vic's wound

from the negative polarity clamp...

Which gets connected to the
metal ground of the car...

sometimes covered in paint.

DANNY: We got some trace
Hawkes found on our vic.

Question is,
what the hell is this?

Looks like some sort
of melted plastic.

You think it's connected?

I'm not sure, but I will find out.

(chain saw buzzing)

Not your first time
with a chain saw?

I'm from Montana, Mac...
if I hadn't left,

I'd probably be a
lumberjack right now.

Okay, check this out.

Sid said that Benny Madera was
cut on a horizontal axis,

one inch above the iliac
crest of his pelvis.

Directionality of the blade
marks and striations

on the bone would suggest

that the incision was initiated
on his right lateral side.

Why does that matter?

Well, our only suspect,
Hector "Toasty" Mendez

is right-handed.

Okay.

Cutting from the left,

he wouldn't have had
any leverage over the saw.

Resulting in a less consistent
and level cut trajectory.

Right. But if he was left-handed,
and his dominant hand

was guiding the saw, then leverage
wouldn't have been an issue,

and he could've made
a straight, steady cut.

Well, I'm not sure that's enough
to rule out Hector entirely.

I knew you were gonna say that,
so try this on for size.

The easiest way to make a steady
cut with a 20-pound chain saw

is to keep your elbows down
and hold the blade

directly in front of you.

- Lines up perfectly.
- Lucky for us

if Hector Mendez
was over six feet tall,

which he isn't.

He's only five-foot-six.

He could've been standing
on something, too.

Not according to the blood
spatter at the scene.

There was no void in the floor.

Hector was telling the truth.

He didn't kill Benny.

(whirring)

?

If Hector Mendez
didn't kill Benny, who did?

Let's ask the person
who accused him

in the first place.

Hicks' confidential
informant, Raymond?

Well, either he got bad
information on the street

or was flat-out lying
to cover for somebody else.

DANNY: I would say smart
money's on option number two.

The melted plastic from the
trunk of the Buick was

a heavyweight poncho made
of ethylene vinyl acetate.

Benny's blood was all over it.

DANVILLE:
Killer must've been

wearing it while he
was cutting him up.

(revving motor)

(screaming)

The plastic distorted when
it was exposed to the heat,

encasing several items that
were balled-up inside...

leather gloves
and a bloody rag

with one eyelash attached.

The poncho and the gloves

protected the killer's clothing
and hands from blood spatter

but not their face.

DANVILLE: So they wiped their
face with the rag,

rolled it up inside the poncho
with the gloves,

and hoped that the car fire
would destroy it.

Right, which would've worked
if the flames had reached the trunk,

but the samples were only
exposed to indirect heat.

So I was able to extract two distinct
DNA profiles from the fibers.

One from Benny Madera's blood.

The other from
the epithelials transferred

when the killer
was wiping his face.

Now, the heat did cause the cells

to lyse, but I was able
to get a complete profile.

Okay, tell me you
found a CODIS match.

(Southern accent):
Yes, ma'am.

Raymond Cruz.

Raymond wants
to tell you something

about the Benny
Madera murder.

Hicks' C.I. tortured
and murdered Benny Madera.

(siren wailing)

DANVILLE:
Science doesn't lie, Raymond,

no matter how long
you stare at it.

DNA proves you killed
Benny Madera,

there's no question about that.

Then what the hell
is your question?

I want to know why.

Was it because Benny invited an
undercover cop into the crew?

That's why he got
the jumper cables.

But that's not the
reason he had to die.

What was?

Payback.

Eight months ago, DEA
busts down my door,

finds a big stash of rock
Toro asked me to sit on.

I could have done ten
years, handled it easy.

But Agent Hicks told me
the weight was enough

to buy me a mandatory
life sentence.

Said there was
only one way out.

To inform on your
fellow gang members.

Hicks... owned my ass.

Made me earn my freedom by
being his full-time rat.

I would have been a
freer man behind bars.

So you blame Benny for
putting you in that position,

when you chose to live
your life as a criminal?

Benny broke the code.

You think he informed
the police about the drugs?

Not until Carmen found
out Anita was a cop.

That's when I knew
Benny had sold me out.

You're wrong, Raymond.

Benny didn't sell you
or anybody else out.

You killed him
because you thought

he betrayed you
and the Trinitarios,

but the reality is,
there was only

one person doing that,
and that was you.

Only you.

Put it down on paper.

You got a set
of brass balls, Taylor.

What the hell is my informant
doing in police custody?

At the moment, he's
writing out a confession

for the murder
of Benny Madera.

Hector "Toasty" Mendez
killed Benny.

No, he didn't.

Carmen Vega reported to Raymond
that Lovato was a cop.

He told her
to borrow Hector's car,

then together they jumped Benny,

tossed him in the trunk,

and brought him
to that warehouse.

(speaking Spanish)

Ah?

(shouts)

(zapping)
(Benny screams)

(grunts)

(speaking Spanish)

(zapping)
(grunting)

Raymond shocked Benny
with a car battery

over and over again,
demanding to know

what he told Lovato
about the Trinitarios,

if he was an
undercover cop, too.

Of course, Benny
was a dead man,

no matter what he said.

(motor starts)

(revving motor)

(screaming)

Raymond pointed the
finger at Hector Mendez

to cover his own ass,
but you already knew that.

What are you talking about?

We subpoenaed
your C.I. contact reports.

You met with Raymond
Cruz one hour

after Benny's body
was discovered.

So what?

He never mentioned one word
about committing any murder.

He didn't have to.

It was where the
two of you met

that spoke volumes.

You're late.

I was saying good-bye
to an old friend.

- Whose car is this?
- I borrowed it.

We lifted your fingerprint
off the door handle.

You were in Hector's Buick.

So when you heard me ask
about it in the garage,

you knew that Raymond
was lying about him,

and you knew why.

Hey, Raymond...

- Toasty own a green car?
- Yeah, Buick.

Bought it off his old man.

Do you have any idea
how important he is?

Raymond can serve up
the Trinitarios

on a silver platter.

Drugs, kidnapping,
murders... all of it.

We can take them down...

if my star witness gets on
the stand and spills his guts.

Doesn't it bother you
that your star witness

is a sadistic,
cold-blooded killer?

I can live with that,

considering what he means
to the big picture.

The only picture I see is
of a man fooling himself.

You had a responsibility
to uphold the letter

of the law, not
pick and choose

the parts that make
your job easier!

I spent four years of my life
building this case,

and nothing about that was easy.

And you want me
to throw it all away

because some
gangbanging degenerate

couldn't control himself?

Raymond didn't compromise
this case, Hicks.

You did that.

(exhales)

(door closes)

(indistinct radio transmission)

(elevator bell dings)

Excuse me.
Sorry.

- Good night.
- Night.

About time you showed up.

(frustrated sigh)

What are you
doing here, Flack?

Been a long day.

Figured you might be hungry,

- so I bought you some takeout.
- From where?

Yang Chows, 39th.

Well done. Best
kung pao in Midtown.

Come on.

- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.

Do you want to tell me
why you're really here?

I was wrong to assume that
you crossed a line with Benny.

You're better than that.

I was a total jerk.
I'm sorry.

What you really want to know

is if I slept with him.

To clear the air...

no... I didn't.

Relieved, aren't you?

What?
Why?

I think you're jealous.

I think you're delusional.

Maybe.

Maybe not.

It's getting late.

I should probably go.

Hey, Flack.

I'll see you tomorrow.
