Wakefield. Hey, Rondell.

All right.

When'd you get the pit bull?

He's a gift from our Central American friends.

He protects and serves?

Yeah, but the question is whom he protects and serves.

Easy. Whoever paid for him.

That breed is loyal to a fault.

So? So, uh, what's the mysterious revelation?

I can't take your business anymore, Rondell.

You've been taking it for five years, Wakefield.

Haven't I given you good service? The best.

Your drain team will want, man.

I just can't perform on that level anymore.

Well, why not?

It's got to do with me, Rondell, not you.

So that's it?

There's nothing I can do to change your mind?

I'm sorry.

All right, then.

Thanks for doing it all.

All right, man. Thank you.

They gone?

Pasty -faced, number -crunching white bread.

After all the money I made him, he thinks he can drop me?

Doesn't want my money anymore? My money? You know what?

We gonna crush this sorry ass.

I'm gonna show you how.

Sorry, muchacho.

Everyone bags on my towel.

Stand at me.

It was for me.

Take a look around.

Just another day.

Be more than me.

Anybody.

Please be free.

Stop it.

What is down?

Just another day.

I'm not going to let you do that. You've got no choice.

Lieutenant, you want a thingy? Come in.

This is Lieutenant Fox from Metro. You know the chief.

Yes, sir. Chief.

Kelly, good to see you again. Kelly, we want you to work an undercover

assignment for us. Maybe.

I've been working with the FBI to nail a guy named Tim Wakefield.

He operates as a middleman between the drug cartels and local distributors.

Middleman between murderers. Nice glorified account. A computer nerd who

launders money in offshore accounts.

Who's protected and trusted by buyers and sellers alike.

He operates out of his boat in the marina.

We have spent three years trying to get a handle on this guy.

Without success?

Which is why we need someone on the inside.

Doing what?

Getting into his hard drive, copying his computer files that detail these

transactions. Why do you need me?

Well, first off, we need a blonde, an attractive one.

Wakefield likes him. Why don't you just hire some ex -playmates skating down the

Venice boardwalk? People.

Get back to business.

Besides, we need someone with computer skills.

We also need someone who's reasonably new to the precinct.

so we don't set up Wakefield's alarms.

Which is exactly why Officer Kelly's wrong for this assignment.

Chris, I have to be up front with you. I'm against this.

I kind of gathered that. You're a fine officer, but you just don't have the

experience for this kind of duty. It's too dangerous.

Kelly, we bring Tim Wakefield down, we recover millions in drug money and break

the backs of half a dozen local distributors.

What do you say?

You want to get out of those bicycle shorts and do some real police work?

Fox, I've had it with your attitude.

You shouldn't even be in this room.

Knock it off.

It's your call.

I'll give it a shot.

All right.

We'll see you next time.

Your boat?

Oh, no. Mine's bigger.

I guess you've never been to one of Tim's parties before.

No, I haven't. I was kind of hoping that they'd serve drinks.

That I can take care of.

Allow me.

Okay.

So, how's work going?

Actually, I'm taking sort of a leave of absence.

Really? Besides, you don't want to listen to me rattle on about IPOs.

Let's talk about your work. What kind of cases have you been working on? Me?

Yeah.

Well, we caught a serial rapist a few weeks ago.

I was the decoy. You're kidding.

No. And the moment the guy jumped me, they lost radio contact with me.

So what did you do?

I waited for my chance and kicked the crap out of him.

I don't know how you do it, Corey.

I really admire you.

Come on, why not?

Come see my boat.

I said no.

Yeah, but... What is that perfume you're wearing?

Stop it.

No means no, is that it?

Now you're getting it.

Yeah, but I have a plan.

Back off!

Is there a problem here, Kat?

No. Just a little misunderstanding.

Oh, I think Miss... What's your name? Gordon. Chris Gordon. I think Miss

understood your meaning all too well.

I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

Look, I'm sorry.

All right? You're apologizing to the wrong person. Ernesto.

Sleep it off, Kent.

Hey, Ernesto.

Gordon, I'm sorry.

Chris. Chris.

Kent really shouldn't drink. You all right?

I'm fine. Thank you. Oh, wait a minute.

Where are you going?

I think I've had enough fun for one day.

No, come on. Let me make it up to you.

Why should you?

This is my boat.

I'm Tim Wakefield.

Well, I think.

Maybe I will.

Good.

She's in.

I owe you.

You know, Corey...

I've been doing a lot of thinking about myself over the last 17 days.

I've made some discoveries.

I've learned some tough lessons.

Yeah? Would you consider us seeing each other again?

I don't think so.

Why not?

You know why.

We've been through this a thousand times. Well, I need to go over it again.

You're so controlling. You're so possessive. You squeeze too tight,

You want to know everything about me, and I can't take it. I can change. I

change. I've changed already.

I don't think so.

We spent this whole time together talking about you, about your work.

what you want?

That's not the point.

Then what is?

I really am a different person.

I just don't understand why you won't give a... I'm sorry.

No.

I just got back from Tahiti, in fact.

Now, look, I can't wait any longer. What is his proposition?

I have a friend who has money problems.

We all.

Well, his problem is quite unusual.

He's got too much of it, and he needs a safe place to keep it.

You know, they have these wonderful things now called banks.

My friend is a Panamanian national. He needs someone to transfer his money to

secure offshore accounts.

Why doesn't your friend take care of this himself?

Well, he's currently paying a debt to the great state of Texas.

20 years, to be exact.

I'm just an investment counselor, and all my clients came by their wealth

legitimately.

Not according to the Medellin, the Cali people, the Crips, the Bloods, the

Dragon Boys, everybody but Consumer Reports.

I know your regular cut is 5%.

I'm offering eight.

My friend has $200 million.

I could put him in some nice triple -A muni bonds.

You his attorney or what?

I'm a personal friend.

An unlikely companion for a convicted felon.

How'd you two meet?

I was his daughter's fifth grade teacher, okay?

What else do you want to know? I could talk to you all day long, you know that?

I'm afraid it won't turn me into this guy that you're looking for.

I'll show you the rest.

And here is my cabin.

It's all very impressive.

Glad you like it.

Now that all this tedious business is out of the way.

Philippe Longo, welcome.

I need a minute.

I can arrange an eternity.

Ernesto? I'm not Carrie.

A lot of security for a stockbroker.

He is clean.

Thank you, Ernesto.

Leave us alone.

Would you excuse us?

Just take a minute.

Senor Perea sends his regards.

As he explained, he's eager to begin.

Don't tell Mr. Perea I'm sorry, but I meant what I said.

I can't take him on as a client.

But Senor Perea is determined.

It's usually a laudable quality, but in this case, it won't do him any good.

Why?

Good day, Felipe.

You're good at this.

Pop your head off and use it as a bowling ball.

Get in here.

Ernesto!

Steven, what's the matter with you?

I've been walking around all night. I've got to talk to you. No, I can't. I'm

late. Look, I completely blew it. I should make things clear to you.

Make what clear?

I'm in love with you.

You're in love with me?

I want to spend the rest of my life with you.

Oh, Steven.

I don't want to be cruel.

But this doesn't change anything. No matter how you feel, it's over between

I'm sorry.

Look, I just feel like I need to make this clear right now.

I have to go to work.

Corey.

Hey, any sign of the paintballers?

Not yet, but I'll find them.

Attention all units in the area.

Proceed to oceanfront walk in Hermosa.

DD near sand.

On PB6 responding.

Back, people, please.

Stand back.

Ben Wakefield asked me to leave the cabin.

Which is where you were able to overhear Longo threaten him.

Come in.

I ran down that bunny that we found in the dumpster. It can wait. I don't think

so. His name is Felipe Longo.

He's an enforcer for the Marischal cartel.

That's him, all right.

Well, isn't this all coming together nicely?

You're right, Kelly. When you go in there... Whoa!

Kelly's not going anywhere near that boat.

Lieutenant, Lamongo is threatening him, demanding a reason.

Wakefield finally gave him one. He's getting out of the business.

So your angle's no good.

He'll take her business. You wait.

She's got to go back in there. I want to, Lieutenant.

Come on, Kelly, let's go.

Let's go.

Victor.

Yeah?

Forget the paintballers.

I have an assignment for you.

Night, Nomura.

Dad.

Whoa, wait a minute. Take it easy.

If it says me, it's Corey.

Of course I'm okay. What's the matter with you?

You told me what?

Oh, my God. Where's Palermo?

Listen, listen.

Dad, I'm fine.

Peter just got here. I'll call you right back.

Just tell Palermo I want to see him now.

Peter, it's all right. Glory. Peter, I'm okay. Oh, thank God.

Okay, okay. You want to tell me what this is all about?

Someone saying that they were from the department called.

He said that there had been a news leak, and he didn't want me hearing about it

on TV.

Hearing what?

That you'd been killed.

In a drug bust on a pier.

The guy just told Dad the same thing.

Are you serious?

Yeah.

I just think I was going to do something like that.

I think I know.

We'll see

you

next

time.

Cinderella, why'd you run off yesterday?

It looked like some of the other guests were about to get rowdy.

Listen, I'm delighted to see you, but I gotta take care of some business.

Can you come back tonight for dinner?

Round nine?

If you give me another chance to convince you.

I'd agree to let you try.

That's all I ask.

I can be very persuasive.

Good, because I'm totally malleable.

I'll see you later.

So I destroyed the photograph, the dress, and the painting.

Just my favorite things.

Stephen? It's gotta be.

Corey, you have to report this. Yeah, but how's it gonna look, me calling on

department to take care of my big, bad, yuppie boyfriend?

Well, at least tell Palermo.

I'll think about it.

Fine.

Look, I have to get back on this boat by nine.

Thanks for coming by.

You look great, by the way. You should make him give you that outfit.

It's weird. I'm actually looking forward to this dinner.

It could be the best of a lifetime.

I meant as a date.

Chris, you're joking, right?

Of course.

You think I want to visit this guy in Soledad?

So, I ran out of the jungle. I jump on the seaplane. The Zapatistas are

away at me the whole time. It's like the beginning of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

You lead a pretty exciting life for an investment counselor.

So do you, for a schoolteacher.

I'm no schoolmarm, and you're no investment counselor.

What are you, then?

Well, if you must know, I met my friend while I was dancing at a gentleman's

club in Galveston.

And he trusts you to invest millions of dollars?

You must be a hell of a dancer.

I talk rude to the customers, and he liked that.

Come on, I made you an offer. What do you say?

Come on.

I'll show you the marina.

You're so persistent.

Why does this mean so much to you anyway?

Are you that devoted to your friend?

As a matter of fact, our personal relationship is over.

But if I can set this up, he'll lay a healthy chunk of cash on me.

Then what?

Start your own life of crime?

No.

Start a new life, period.

I'm not so proud of my life so far.

This money will let me start over.

Maybe do it right.

What? What's so funny?

I'm getting out myself.

You're kidding.

Nope.

That's why I can't help you.

So what you do has made you so rich. Why would you get out?

I saw a movie about this guy who's like the guy you think I am.

In the movie, the character really just stumbled into the whole world.

How did that happen?

I grew up wild, too much money, not enough caring.

So I started dealing grass in high school.

Now, at college, he ran the campus drug trade.

And when the school kicked him out, his parents finally switched to tough love

and disowned him.

But the only thing he knew how to do was sell drugs.

Real jobs are so tough to find.

He'd grown accustomed to the lifestyle.

Couldn't see giving it up.

So why did he decide to get out?

Because he wakes up, realizes the terrible human cost of these seemingly

innocuous bank transfers.

So he drops his clients and refuses to take on new ones.

He can't reverse all the harm he's done, but he can stop from doing any more.

And with all the money he's made, he lives like a sultan on the Riviera.

No. He keeps a tiny bit and gives the rest to charity.

Talk about a far -fetched ending.

That's why I like the movie.

They want to talk to you.

I'm sorry.

I have to take care of this.

Do you mind if we go back?

Sure.

Great.

Tim. What's wrong? What's wrong?

I'm sorry. I think I drank a little bit too much wine. I kind of feel sick. I've

got to get off this boat.

All right. I'm sorry. I'll come back tomorrow.

Stephen.

Corey. You have to stop this.

Stop what?

I haven't reported the harassment.

If you stop it now, I'll let it go. But one more incident, and you're in deep

trouble. Corey, I honestly don't know what you're talking about.

If someone's harassing you, it's not me.

I love you.

I'd never do anything to hurt you.

What is that?

You alright?

Damn, those things hurt.

I look like a Picasso, don't I?

Actually more like a Jackson Pollock.

Lieutenant Price, IA.

You Corey McNamara? Yeah, you want to tell me what this is all about?

A report has been filed that you have a heroin habit.

That's a lie. Who said that? Can't say.

Come on. Look, I've never taken any drugs in my life. You won't find a mark

me. This is an old boyfriend of mine doing this. He's been harassing me.

You sound a little more authentic than that.

Yeah, well, he's very clever.

He's got my family believing that I've been killed in the line of duty. He

into my house and destroyed most of the things I really care about.

I suppose you reported this?

Yeah.

You told me all about it.

Hello, Tony.

It's been a long time.

Not long enough.

This is my squad, Price. Before you run with something like this, you clear it

with me.

You weren't here.

We couldn't take a chance on evidence being removed.

There is no evidence.

Because Officer McNamara's no junkie. She's one of my finest officers.

Still, we have to proceed with our investigation.

You do what you gotta do.

Just don't ever show up one of my officers again.

Now let's go up to my office.

You're lucky I even showed up.

Clermo should be in on this.

Clermo's a killjoy, and you know it.

What time do you do back at the boat?

I didn't set a time. You better get over there before he gets tired of waiting.

Lieutenant, I don't know how long I could keep this up.

You think he's on to you?

No, no. It's just that, well, to tell you the truth, I don't know how much

longer I can hang in there without having to sleep with this guy.

So go ahead and sleep.

What did you say?

I thought you wanted to bring this guy down, Kelly.

Make some headlines.

Get out of the bike brigade.

I do, but... So grow up.

Who's gonna know?

Besides, I was watching you last night. I think you can handle it.

You're crazy.

No, just effective. I get my man. I thought you wanted to do the thing.

Are you that hungry for glory? Glory has nothing to do with it. This is about

justice. Let's say I sleep with him, which I won't, but let's say I do.

It would jeopardize my testimony in his trial.

This will never get to trial.

What are you talking about? Because if it gets to trial, with Mr. Wakefield's

thankful, with his connections, with the lawyers he can hire, he'll never spend

a day in prison.

What did you have in mind?

Let's suppose this goes down.

And somehow, tragically, Mr. Wakefield gets caught in the crossfire.

He winds up dead.

That's an order.

Kelly, don't play hard to get.

Victor, what are you doing here? Tony sent me here to keep an eye on you.

Have you been tailing me? Since yesterday.

And I've seen everything.

All right, Victor, shut up and listen, okay?

This Fox guy is way out of control.

You need to let Palermo know what's going on.

I'm listening.

First off, I think he's going to try to kill Wakefield.

Lieutenant Palermo. No.

The court has told me so much about you. Sit down.

It's not a sales call. You're under arrest.

Well, I know that, but what I don't know is why.

I think you know that, too.

Well, if you're going to get rude... You're harassing one of my officers.

Before I book you and print you and let you spend the night with people you've

only read about, I suggest you cop to this.

Maybe we can work something out.

Except that I didn't do anything.

I mean, I understand that someone's been harassing Corey, but it's not me.

You're lying.

No, I'm not.

Lieutenant, I love Corey.

I'm as sick about this whole thing as you are. You're sick, all right.

I'm going to put you out of commission.

Charge me.

Is that what you'd like?

No, but apparently you would.

Except that you can't.

Because you don't have any evidence.

How can you be so sure?

Because I didn't do it. I'm innocent.

Think about it, Mr. Armitage.

This might be your last chance to stay out of the system.

I have thought about it, Lieutenant.

And as soon as I get that one phone call that I'm entitled to, which I think is

a little overdue if I'm not mistaken, I'm going to call my roommate from

Stanford, who happens to be the most prominent defense attorney in the state.

So either charge me or turn me loose.

Finally, I was about to give up hope.

Feeling better? Yeah, I'm fine. Sorry about that. I'm such a cheap drunk.

Come on.

Careful, you'll get heat stroke.

I got a surprise for you.

I'm going on a cruise.

Where to?

That's also a surprise.

How long will we be gone? Well, that depends on you.

I'm clean, Chris, and I'm gone. Service my last client.

The books are closed.

Next stop, paradise.

Wow.

I want you to come with me.

Tim, I don't...

Chris, I think I'm falling in love.

I don't think I'm doing it alone.

Come share that deserted beach with me.

Tim, I can't.

Because you're a cop?

What are you... Did you really think you could hack into my computer without my

knowing? Tim, I'm not a cop. I don't know what you're talking about. Chris,

already worked out a defense with my lawyers. I'll never be convicted of

anything.

But I still want you to come. Come on, say yes.

I don't know.

Do you really have so much that's good in your life right now?

I haven't felt this way about anyone in a long time.

Could that be true for you too, or am I just in fantasy land?

No, you're not.

Then do it.

What have you got to lose?

All right, I will.

Ernesto!

Five minutes!

No, don't.

I understand.

Where is she now?

She's right on deck. I can see her.

But I might not be able to see her much longer. Why not?

Well, it looks like they're getting ready to pull out.

They're loading a bunch of supplies.

I'm coming down there.

What about Fox? What about him?

Who was he?

One of my officers.

This doesn't have anything to do with my operation, does it?

That's right.

Kelly on the phone?

No, it was Del Toro.

I sent him out to keep an eye on her. You jeopardize a whole operation by

sending a bicycle cop in surveillance? What are you, nuts? I was nuts to let it

go this far in the first place. I think this is a good operation. You know,

you're so far gone, you're really able to... You're going to let him get away.

Look, I know what you said to Kelly. I know what you told her to do.

I know what you're planning on putting a bullet in Wakefield. That is

ridiculous. No, it's insane.

You're off this case, okay? With any luck, you're out of this department.

Used to be a good cop, Mark.

When did you cross over?

When I got serious about doing the job.

Hey, you ready to go home, Ernesto?

Just as soon as you get rid of the blonde, we sail. She's coming with us.

she's not.

Yeah, she is.

Hey, it's my party, and I pick the guests.

My bosses won't like it, and they'll adjust.

Come on, let's go.

Now, if you're going to share my life, you need a crash course.

Now, my friend upstairs is named Ernesto Guzman.

And he's what, your bodyguard?

And my jailer.

His employer, the Vasquez Cartel, is my biggest client.

He's supposed to guard me close and keep me under his thumb.

Did you order him to kill Longo?

What are you talking about?

Well, his corpse was found in a dumpster the next day.

I didn't know.

How does the Vasquez cartel feel about your retirement?

They don't know.

And where does Senor Guzman think that you're going?

Down the coast, through the canal, the Columbia.

Where his masters can keep an eye on you?

Exactly.

What do you think Ernesto's going to do when he finds out the truth?

I figured a way to ditch him on the Mexican coast.

Then you and I will get lost so fast, they'll never find us.

You don't think they'll let you retire?

In this business, the only acceptable form of retirement... is as powdered ash

in an urn.

Ready to cast off!

Chris, do you really want to do this?

You can get off now.

It's okay, I'll understand.

Get left back on the dock?

No way.

Look, Stephen.

I'm not going to hurt you, Corey.

Then what's the gun for?

It's for me.

Sit down.

I don't want to sit down. I want you out of my house. Sit down!

And what if I don't?

Like I said, Corey, I don't want to hurt you, but I will.

If you don't do as I say.

Now what?

This is for you.

What is it?

It's a notarized affidavit stating that I'm the one who told your family that

you were killed in action and that I vandalized your apartment and set

affairs on you, so you shouldn't have any trouble with them.

All right.

That's the envelope.

Now, what's the gun for?

This is for me.

I'm going to blow my brains out, and you're going to watch me do it. I'm not

going to watch this.

Like I said, Corey, I don't want to hurt you.

Do you really care that much about me?

And I'll prove it.

You don't want to live without me?

No.

How can I feel so stupid?

Here I am looking for a man who really cares about me and how long you've been

right here in front of me.

Can you ever forgive me?

You mean this?

Oh, Steven.

We're coming out on deck.

Let's move in.

Better cast off!

You're not going anywhere.

What are you doing? I heard what you said in the cabin and I got my orders.

Besides, I hate Mexico.

What do you got in mind?

No one gets out alive, Timmy.

Come on, let's go.

Put your hands over your head.

You're under arrest.

What are you talking about?

Put them up.

You have the right to remain silent.

Chris, I thought we were going to go away together.

Yeah, I would have liked that.

What do you think is going to happen?

You've got nothing on me.

I've got everything on a disc.

That beach.

It's so beautiful.

You're missing out on paradise.

You okay?

Yeah.

He was scary looking, huh?

My bad.

Hey,

you seen Elvis?

I got a letter here from someone named Dee Dee.

Ooh, burn it.

Did you see Steven yesterday?

Yeah, his parents are putting him in a facility near them.

So sad.

Hey, this one's for you.

Wow, where is this place?

Hey, from the island of St.

Anselm. When's the next plane?

That means that.

Who's it from?

Wakefield.

Chris, those lawyers were worth every penny.

Wish you were here. Love, Tim.

Don't try to talk it down, why everyone rags

on my town.

The sand and sea, it was for me.

Take a look around,

just another day in LA.

She's more than me.

Anybody thinks he is free.

Someday.

One in and down.

Just another day.
