In the nation's
largest city,

the vicious and violent
members of the underworld

are hunted by the detectives

of the Organized Crime
Control Bureau.

These are their stories.

Donnelly's running
a crew out of the 3-7.

He's more than an errand boy
for the Marcy Killers.

I remember your pops.

- Our dads say we're like--
- Yeah, brothers.

My old man would've hated this.

Leave your fellow cops alone.

Nova will now report
directly to me.

Second in command of
the entire Marcy organization?

This is more than
what you signed up for.

- How much did we lose?
- At least 50K.

The disrespect,
I can't stand.

I run this town now.
- Yeah.

- Hey, hey, hey.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

You did good, Stabler.
I think you might be ready.

Come on.

♪

It just feels like betrayal.

I know what I'm doing is right

but I can't shake
this feeling...

Of betraying these people

even though
they're betraying their oath.

Tell me about this world
of feeling for you.

What lives there?

My father.

What does he
have to say about this?

Well not too much,
he's been dead about 30 years,

but...

Sss--

I still hear him
loud and clear.

See, he was a cop,
and he represents...

You know, the old school way,
the cop tradition,

the code.

My father was awarded
the Combat Cross.

He took a bullet
to save another cop's life,

That's who he was.
That's what he did.

And he gave me
that Combat Cross

when I became a detective.

♪

It's the first time I ever felt
like he was proud of me.

Isn't upholding the law
part of the code?

Yeah. Yeah.

Seems to me,
your father would be proud

again.

♪

Do not come down here, Bonnie.

Who is this?

Yo, I'm warning you.

♪

I'm here to pick up
Angelica Guzman.

It'll be a while.
They're still processing her.

What are the charges?

Prostitution
and disorderly conduct.

You know the DA's
not gonna prosecute.

Why didn't you just
call social services?

You can have a seat
over there if you like,

but you can't stand here.

Or you can--you can call me.

How about you do that
next time?

Save the city a little money.

♪

Angelica,
I'm here to take you home.

Everything is going to be okay.

You're doing the right thing.
Do you hear me?

Will you stay
off the streets tonight?

- I've gotta work.
- Just tonight, please.

Here, this will tide you over.

Tomorrow morning
I'll pick you up,

I'll take you to my office,
and we'll get to work.

If he knew
I was talking to you--

Everything between us
is completely confidential.

I promise you, Angelica.

Come on,
I'll walk you to your door.

♪

♪

Ah, this is weird.

I think I'm gonna miss you.

Oh, that's sweet.
What was his name again?

The better we all do our jobs,

the sooner Stabler will be
back here riding your asses.

I upgraded this from when

you were undercover
as Eddie Wagner.

I added a feature that
lets Sergeant Bell ping you

when she needs you
to respond ASAP.

Okay.

Everyone,
I need your attention.

Last night a civil rights
attorney, Bonnie Ellis,

was found murdered
in East New York

along with a young sex worker.
- Bonnie?

I knew her back when
I worked in Narco.

She was involved in
the East New York Gangs Truce.

She went on to cofound
the Second Chance Alliance,

a nonprofit organization that works

to help victims
of sex trafficking.

So the sex worker
was her client?

Angelica Guzman,
19 years old,

got picked up
as part of a sting.

Ellis was dropping her off
at her apartment.

And the murder weapon
was found in a dumpster

near the crime scene,
a nine-millimeter handgun

with the serial number
scratched off.

Crime scene is working
to recover the number.

So East New York,
that's the 3-7.

So is this a task force case
or is this for Stabler?

You know, technically,
he's still on suspension.

Well, it's for both of you

because of a possible
Marcy Killers connection.

A few hours
before Bonnie was killed,

she received a call
from a burner phone.

It was traced back to

a Hugo Bankole
of the Marcy Killers.

♪

What's wrong with you?

The cops are looking for me.

Why? What happened?

Two women got shot
last night on Van Siclen,

and they think I did it.

You have an alibi?

Yeah, I was at
my cousin Jamund's place.

Brought him some electronics
for his e-biz.

- So he can vouch for you.
- No, he got a record.

They ain't going
to believe him.

One of the marks was a lawyer

coming up in
the public defender's office,

and that ain't a good look
for the cops.

You know they gonna
have to pin it on somebody.

You should get out of here.

♪

Hey.

Hey, how you doing? Stabler.

Don't feel bad.
They don't trust new guys here.

I don't feel bad.
I got thick skin.

So you got transferred here?

It would seem so.

Kind of a downgrade.

They took my gun too.

- Tough break.
- Yup.

You play cards?

Yeah, 10-4.

See you at McCutcheon's.

I'll see you there.

Bonnie spent a year
getting to know Angelica.

She worked really hard
to gain her trust,

providing legal counsel,

connecting her
with social services.

Do you know if Angelica
was being trafficked?

I honestly don't know,
but these women,

they're terrified
to talk about that.

Where'd she pick up
her clients?

Did she have a territory?

We work separate cases,

but I know some of the women
that worked with Bonnie,

they walk the track
at Hunts Point.

Did Bonnie have any dealings
with the Marcy Killers?

I've heard the name,
but aren't they a drug gang?

Wait, you're saying
you haven't come across them

in connection
with sex trafficking?

No, but I don't know

every gang in New York
that traffics women.

Detective Stabler.

Captain Darnell,
nice to meet you, sir.

I'm gonna be
very straight with you.

I don't want you here.

You were thrust on me,
and I don't like it,

but it wasn't my choice.

Well, I appreciate
your honesty.

Just shut up and let me talk.

I don't like scandal,
and I hate politics.

So whatever happened between
you and your former sergeant,

I don't give a damn.

You just keep your head down
and stay out of trouble

or I will make sure

that your suspension
becomes an expulsion.

Now in the meantime,

unless and until IAB restores
your full privileges,

you're on desk duty.

Make sure
your handwriting's legible.

Copy that, sir.

♪

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Look at you.
- Yeah, look at me.

Stuck in your
little house-mouse gig.

- Mm.
- Please don't hate me.

Why would I hate you?

'Cause I'm the one
that put in the good word

that got you transferred
to this hellhole.

Well, I hate you.

Look, truth of the matter is

it wouldn't have mattered
where they sent me,

a cop without a gun
is dead weight.

Yeah.
Come on, let's go for a ride.

Yeah, I don't think
that's a good idea.

I was threatened
with expulsion by Darnell.

Forget about Darnell.

He's a jackass. Let's go.

Come on.

Let's roll.

Turning the wrong way
down a one-way street

adds the element of surprise.

The more people you stop,

more likely you are
to find something.

Stop and frisk,
I think is what they call it.

Yeah.

And you know,
if you're in a patrol car,

you just pull over,
pop the door,

chase whoever runs.

So the drugs.

Once you get them,
what do you do with them?

Well, Marcy Killers
were our main buyers,

but now that Webb's dealing
directly with the source,

he's not interested in
the street level stuff anymore.

But that's fine, that's cool.
- Mm.

We still got
plenty of buyers.

Like, see that kid over there?
- Yeah.

17 years old, hard as nails.

He's got ins
with the Trinitarios

and he's one of our CI's,

so he lets us know
who's carrying

and we can jack their drugs.

- You trust him not to talk?
- Believe me, I got enough

to put him away
for ten lifetimes.

He ain't talking.

How about them?
Who they work for?

No idea.

You don't run girls?

Hey, I got daughters.

Marcy Killers run girls?

What is this,
an interrogation?

No, I'm trying
to get a lay of the land.

I'm looking for opportunities.
I just don't want to step on

anybody's toes
like the Marcy Killers.

Right.

Do me a favor, okay?

We're working together now,
use this.

You don't want anybody to be
able to ID you off your shield.

Yeah.

Tomorrow night I'll take you
out for another ride

and show you
how we really roll out here.

Hugo didn't do it.

So he should have
no problem coming in

and telling me that himself.

You know
that's not gonna happen.

He has good reason
not to trust the police.

And we have good reason
to consider him

a person of interest.
- What reason?

Is Hugo running girls
for the Marcy Killers?

No.

Mr. Webb doesn't allow
sex trafficking.

It goes against
everything he believes in.

Oh, so now Preston Webb
is a man of high principle.

I'm telling you,

the Marcy Killers
don't run girls.

Then why did Hugo contact
one of the victims

a couple hours
before she got shot?

I don't know.

Look...

Nova, you know
I trust your judgement,

but sometimes I worry that
you've been undercover so long

that you can't see these people
for what they truly are.

These people?

You starting to sound
just like them.

What's that supposed to mean?

That maybe you've been
a cop so long,

you only see things
in black and white.

You will not insult
the integrity of what I do.

Hard evidence is
all we have to go on,

and right now
the evidence is strong.

is soaked in blood.

This little nasty bitch
slashed him.

That's my kind of girl.

Well, look who the cat
dragged in.

all: Hey!

All right.

The return of
the conquering hero.

- All right.
- Hey.

Takes more than a couple
bullets to put me down, right?

- Let me buy you a drink, huh?
- Thanks, guys.

Two whiskeys, neat.
You look good.

Thanks.
You look like hell.

You all right?
- Eh.

Thanks.

So give the highlights.
Tell me what went on.

I have no idea, man.
I mean...

What?

I'm still trying
to figure it out.

You know, he was just
shaky all night, on edge.

But the sale went down
without a hitch.

And so what--and when he
dropped you off here,

and he didn't say anything?
I mean, anything?

No, no.
You know, I said, "come on in.

Let me buy you a drink."

He's like, "Oh, you know,
give me a minute."

So I'm in here
and I'm telling you,

I was in here
less than a minute

and I'm not feeling right,
right?

So I go out to check on him.

Boom. Right in front of me.

I, uh, I got this off of him
before the paramedics arrived.

That is great, Stabler.

Oh, man, that's even better.

Jackpot. Thank you, my friend.

You're saving my ass.

- No, no that's--
- No, no.

Take it, brother.
- No.

You deserve it, okay?

You know what,
Van Aller wasn't cut out

for this kind of work, anyways.
You know what I mean?

This kind of operation,

you gotta have men
with cojones.

You know, backbone.

Men like our dads, right?

- Hmm.
- Yeah.

You know, there was a story
about your dad

that was famous
in my house growing up.

Hmm.

So your dad and his partner,
right?

They're cleaning house,
no warrants,

and they get ambushed
by this hothead kid

who's unarmed, right?

So your dad's partner spooks,
shoots the kid.

- Dead?
- Dead.

Dead, right?
So now a major screw up.

They gotta make it look,

you know,
they justified the shooting.

So your dad searches the house,
finds a gun,

has his partner
shoot him in the leg

to make it look like
Joe was defending him.

Okay?

All right, you want
to talk about cojones?

So Joe Stabler
got a damn Combat Cross

for taking that bullet.

You want to talk about loyalty?

You want to talk
about brotherhood?

I mean...

We're just like our dads.

Must be your lucky day.

Not only couldn't I fire you,

the powers that be
deemed it time

to return this to you.

It's pretty obvious
you got friends in high places.

But they're the wrong kind
of friends.

They're the kind
that'll have your back

just long enough
to stab you in it.
