All language subtitles for The Bridge s01e02 Paint It Black

Previously, on The Bridge.

You know, we had another homeless kid
run the other night.

Just like this, but in a safe -in kind
of truck.

I gotta get my feet up. Spent the whole
day looking for uniforms.

You hear about that?

Missing three uniforms.

Hey, Mike!

Cop!

What do we do if they come in?

Kill them.

That's what I've been saying for months.
Cops are way out of control.

Police officers have to be held to a
higher standard.

Not when it's being used to screw with
them.

Who the hell is Frank Leo? What I
propose is the bridge division is a one

walkout. And you walk out and you're
putting the public in danger. Hey,

you should be our union rep. I mean, it
was your idea, right?

Careful what you wish for, partner.

Can you believe the cops in Britain are
all on strike?

Talk to me, Betty. What do you think?

My husband's on his second tour in
Afghanistan.

You think he can just go on strike when
he wants to? Good point. Harold, what's

up? I say fire every one of them. Okay,
what about that, Mark? All right,

everybody, listen up for a second.

Listen up.

Just listen to me for one sec.

We have just released a full copy of the
video to the media along with this

statement.

This walkout is to show our support for
our fellow officers whose reputations

are being unjustly blackened by the
police board. The board wants to try

officers, then let them do it fairly and
in a court of law, and not unjustly in

the court of public opinion.

The police board has to learn that
there's a difference between prosecution

persecution.

off duty will leave the building.

Those officers who are on shift will
return to duty immediately.

Is that clear?

Let's talk.

Have you

arrested for this?

Yeah, you could probably try.

You're ambitious, Frank.

I just didn't realize how ambitious.

And what's that supposed to mean?

I mean, Frank, you're a promising young
man.

I can do a hell of a lot for your
career.

Maybe even clear a path to deputy chief.

And what would I have to do for you?

You go out there.

You tell them whatever you have to tell
them, but you get them back to work.

interesting conversation with Deputy
Chief Landy.

She really wants you all to go back to
work.

And to get you back to work, she offered
me a bribe.

What do you think? Should I take it?

We're not in this for ourselves. We're
in this for each other.

Maybe this time, they get to live.

You see Tommy?

He didn't come in.

I'll put the video on the internet. So
far, it's 50 -50. Fall in again?

Doesn't matter. As long as they see the
police board's lying and we're the ones

telling the truth.

Frank!

Take a look.

The emails we've been getting.

So far, about 1 ,400 officers have gone
back to their stations to support us.

What? A couple more hours, there's not
going to be another officer left on the

streets. Hey, Pete's in here, guys.

Compliments of Vic's union. Hey, Vic,
thanks.

I heard him.

We'll take these around.

So, where's my man Tommy? How's he
handling this thing?

It's not Tommy, Dad. It's me. I'm a
union rep now.

This wildcat? That was you?

Yeah, all me. So, how many did you
manage to get out?

Pretty much everybody.

Yeah, well, it's easy to get them out,
Frank. It's getting them back in, that's

the hard part.

What do you mean?

Well, they're going to want to feel like
their sacrifice counted for something

and they got a good deal for it.

Say I don't get that good deal, Dad.

What happens then? What do I do? Well,
you won't get everything, but whatever

you do get, you pin a ribbon on it and
you sell a helmet on it. Hey, Frank.

She's here.

Who would I tell you?

All right.

Go see the chief.

Well, the last time we met, I had to
come down pretty hard on you, didn't I?

Not hard enough, apparently.

What's it going to take to end this,
Frank?

Get George Talley off his bully pulpit.

Right to the point. I'm not finished.

We need more detectives in this
division. Well, let's start with the

it, okay?

But a public statement that they were
wrong the way they handled this episode,

would that do it?

Not even close.

What if I told you the prosecutors won't
bring a case against these officers?

We want an apology from the board.

Not a statement, an apology.

And George Talley makes it.

Unfortunately, I don't have any control
over George.

But I have friends on the board who
might make this happen.

That's all you're going to get on this
one, Frank.

Any more is a deal -breaker.

We write the apology.

Just so you remember, I didn't have to
come down here and have this little face

-to -face with you.

Yeah, okay.

Are we done?

Okay, man.

I was just on my way to talk to the
membership about everything, and

told me you came in.

I heard you talked to the chief.

How'd that go?

No prosecution.

Police force is going to back off, and I
got two more detectives.

That's good.

So what do you say about overtime?

We stuck a pin in it for later.

So? They made the right choice then.

No. I thought, no, they didn't. Wrong
choice.

Look, I'm no good at this union stuff. I
never wanted it. I still don't. You

know, Frank, they never would all follow
me out like that.

But you, you got that thing, that light.
No, Tommy, don't say that. I'm no

different than you.

Yeah, you are.

You know, Daryl and Billy are still
going to get sanctioned. Slap on the

whatever.

Telly's got a safe face.

Yeah, no, you're right. Absolutely.

And that's why I need you, man.

I need your help.

Yeah? Well, I can't wait to see you try
and sell no overtime in the membership.

Yep.

This is a big score, man.

Much more than I expected.

Just make sure Tony gets a share, right?

Yeah, yeah.

That is what I needed.

Save this for later.

So what's next, man?

Got a line on a couple guys. They do the
business in a bar.

In the bathroom, man.

We just go in, take it.

Mike, that's crazy.

There's too many people around.

Man, you don't get it.

They can't touch us.

Look at all this stuff, huh?

That dope's getting to your head.

I say where we hit. I say who, I say
what, I say when.

Right?

West on Del Lane in pursuit of the
suspect's pickup that hit the homeless

people. Where are you guys?

Bridge CIB, we are close to your
position.

Copy.

West, I bet he's headed for the parkway.

No, never in a million years is he going
to go up to the parkway. It's a

parkway. He's going to lose us and rush
our traffic.

He's going to cross a bridge and he's
going to try and shake us on the

If he makes a right on East 12th, he'll
be heading for the bridge.

Left will take him into Moore
Residential. Yeah, well, I doubt he's

that.

Watch out! Look out! Look out!

$20. It goes for the parkway. Done.

Car. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Lights.
Don't you see lights?

He's making lights.

Bridge 658 is on. He's 12, headed for
the bridge.

Son of a bitch.

Bridge 658. Guess he's buying me lunch.

He's on the fire deck now.

Bridge CIB. We will intersect and take
the lead.

7 .52 we are on East Bim coming up on
Loudoun.

Open that door!

Show me your hand!

Get out of the truck! Turn around!

Turn around and back to me!

Back up! Faster! Faster!

Faster's better!

Anybody else in the truck? Is there
anyone else in the truck? In the

Step out!

Hey, Alex.

Is my grandma okay?

I understand your partner's going to
lose his leg. I'm sorry.

Yeah, so is he.

Have you seen him?

Yeah. Have you?

They wouldn't let us in.

So you guys are what?

IA? Where's the SIU? This is usually
their sort of thing.

In your case, it's our thing.

Oh, really?

Why's that?

Let's talk about the shooting.

I'm attempting to pull Mr.

Murray's pickup over, but he refuses to
comply.

And that justifies a high -speed
pursuit, in your opinion?

Well, that was the suspect's choice to
run, not mine.

He runs, you chase him, regardless of
who gets hurt. No, no, no.

He runs, we catch him, and then...

He doesn't hurt anybody else.

Are you saying nobody checked to see who
else was in the pickup?

You couldn't see into it. The windows
were too dark.

So what? Everybody just starts shooting,
is that it? The pickup backed up right

at us. Mr. Murray says that's not true.

Then how the hell did it hit Tommy then?

Mr. Murray explained that.

Guess what?

I've had it up to here with you. You're
done. Finished.

We came to you, Rose.

You said you wanted to help yourself
out. I got your damn wiretap warrant for

Frank's house, didn't I? What about the
shooting?

Is there anything there we can use?

The chase got called off and we ignored
it.

But you'll never prove it. Everybody
will lie about it. What about the drug

-offs? Frank?

No way he's involved in those.

Frank, who are you?

Who's it going to be?

Did he ever talk about his father?

Frank.

Just paint from forensic.

They didn't find any blood or fibers on
the pickup.

Then repaint.

Okay, guys.

That's it.

We've got to get a good lawyer, Frank. I
mean, we tried without, but that's not

going to work anymore.

Do you know any good ones?

You're joking, right?

Just answer me this.

Do you love your job? And remember, I am
a highly trained professional, and I

will know if you're lying. So tell me,
do you love your job?

I do love my job, yeah.

But you don't love the people that you
work with, right?

More to the point.

So, you go into private practice. You
get six clients like that.

Frank, look, I'm sorry. I'm just not
that spontaneous. Why not?

What, are you afraid you're going to
catch on fire or something? Or

definitely.

All right.

Is this where you bring all the girls to
talk them into being spontaneous?

Yes, yes, I do.

Do you only go out with other cops, or
do you date outside your religion?

Well, I don't usually date lawyers,
that's for sure. They make way too much

money.

Good thing this isn't a date, then. I
have a boyfriend.

How come you helped me the other day?

My grandfather was a cop.

Really?

I was really worried today when I
thought of you, Frank.

I told him that you'd fix me up with a
new lake. I want one that looks like a

leaf spring.

Oh, you mean the ones for runners.

You know, you're actually going to have
to get off the couch for that one.

No problemo, partner.

I got three months of rehab learning how
to walk in a damn tank.

Look who's here.

Hey, look at you.

The world's going to be all over you,
man. Love again.

That's what my wife says.

Good thing she's okay with it.

Mine's always trying to remake me.

You know, you guys, I was thinking,
those guys ripping off drug dealers,

our police uniforms.

They could have just waited.

They could have got mine for cheap.

It would have cost you a fortune
replacing them, though. I mean, you've

come back and work with me, partner.

It's not my call. The brass want me on a
desk.

Are you serious?

You're serious. Why?

I didn't follow procedure.

I got behind the pickup.

The IA is saying it's my fault that I
lost my life. Tell me, the IA is saying

it's everybody's fault.

I don't want to be a guy who can't back
up his partner.

I quit.

You just, you quit. You don't talk to me
about it, you don't talk to us about

it, you just quit? What the hell? Since
when do you tell me anything before you

just go ahead and do it?

Frank, if you want to change things,
there's an election coming up. I think

should run for the president of the
police union.

Are you kidding?

Frank will never leave the streets.

Anyway, I don't want to talk about it no
more.

It's done.

Nothing's done can't be undone, Tommy.

What, are you going to grow me a new leg
now?

Hey, Frank.

I figured this thing out.

This is the place where the first
homeless victim was killed, right?

Yeah, right there. Yeah, and right over
there is where I saw this pickup truck

and tried to pull it over at the end of
the block.

Now, see that house over there? Yeah. It
belongs to Lee Murray's grandmother.

Her husband owned an insurance company,
left her in a lot of debt.

Her neighbors told me that many homeless
people were visiting her every day.

So what are you saying?

The grandmother was making friends with
homeless people and then started to take

out life insurance policies on them. And
then her grandson would run them over

and she would collect the money.

We got the right people, Frank.

We don't give a damn if they're the
right people or not, Frank.

You guys fired 68 rounds at that pickup.

It's a really big pickup.

You know how many times you guys hit the
victim?

Four times.

Two of those bullets came from your
weapon.

I was worried that I didn't hit anything
at all.

A 76 -year -old unarmed woman. That was
your threat.

76 -year -old armed with a pickup and a
murderer. Yeah.

The only murderer we're concerned about
here is you, Frank.

Chase got called off.

This woman ends up dead.

I'm going to do some time for that. The
thing is, maybe we can help you out

there. You tell us about the drug rip
-offs.

We'll see about cutting you a deal. What
do you say?

Drug rip -offs, excuse me? Oh, come on,
Frank.

We know you're involved with those,
okay?

It has to be you. It's simple.

You cop to the rip -offs, you get a pass
on this other thing.

You just gonna sit there? You're not
gonna say anything?

Sounds to me like a pretty good offer.

They're just trying to bait you.

I don't know.

The way they were going after me was
almost personal.

What would your lawyers say?

Nothing.

Literally nothing. He sat there. They
walked all over me.

So what do I do?

Okay, well, first of all, no more
interviews.

You want them to charge you with the
shooting.

Your best shot's going to be at trial.

All right.

Thank you.

I know you took a chance coming down
here. Mm -hmm.

Give me five bucks.

What? Give me five bucks.

What's that for?

You just retained me.

You said you had a boyfriend.

You said you'd know if I was lying.

Hey, Frank.

Hey, Rose. How you holding up?

Okay. Not really okay.

I think we can talk for a minute.

Sure.

The thing is, I .A., when they
interviewed me, it was really weird,

What do you mean?

I mean, like, they kept asking me all
these questions about your dad.

My dad? Yeah.

They said that when your dad was head of
the local, he and another guy took

money from the pension fund.

What? Yeah.

And I guess only this other guy got
found out, and he killed himself.

They kept saying things like the apple
doesn't fall far from the tree, like

father likes son, you know, things like
that.

They think you're dirty, Frank.

They're asking me about those missing
uniforms.

They think you're one of the guys
ripping off these drug dealers. And they

thought I'd know because we used to
sleep together.

Rose, Rose, they pulled the same crap on
me. They're just trying to wind you up,

get us against each other. They said
they have proof.

Do you think I'd take money, Rose?

Did your dad take money?

Get out.

Frank, I... Get out of the car.

You guys can find Hal.

Dead strike, Frank.

You guys are the whole kid.

Like father, like son, you know.

Well, I just got lucky. I know you.

I'm just saying.

Sometimes life tells you what it wants
you to do.

I gotta ask you something, Dad. How many
codes you want?

Two.

How's your damn pad?

It's about that guy that used to come
over when I was young. Sunday dinners.

guys would play poker.

After, I think I called him Uncle Bill.

Whatever happened to that guy?

What? You were six,

seven years old. You still remember
Bill?

I remember one time you guys got really
drunk and had a big fight out on the

front lawn.

That's right when you took over the
local, right?

Could be.

I'm not sure.

Killed himself, didn't he?

Yeah.

He had problems.

He was taking money from the pension
fund?

That's what they said, yeah.

Did you ever take money, Dad?

That's a hell of a question to ask me.

I'm just trying to understand.

I don't care. It's not a big deal. I
just... I'm trying to understand that

take money.

You want to know?

Okay.

Yeah, your old man took money once.

He was a weak son of a bitch.

And he gave in to his demons.

And he prayed to God that you'd never
find out. And you'd never look at him

way you're looking at him right now.

Dad, come on. I'm going to go.

No, Dad.

I'm going to go.

No, Dad, it's not about the money. I
don't care if you took money. I don't

What did he have, anyway?

Nothing. Yeah.

Me either.

Dad, come on.

They were closing up. Ruby found her in
there, called me.

Hey, Ruby. Hey.

Oh, come on, Rose.

My eyes got me all twisted up, Frank.

I know. They got us all a little
twisted.

Doesn't need to come to this, though.

Huh?

Would you give me that?

Give me it again.

Okay.

I wasn't gonna do anything with it.

Fine.

Then go home.

Frank, I gotta tell you something.

I was wired today.

When I thought of you.

But it wasn't about you taking money.

It's all about your dad taking money.

What did they want to hear?

They didn't know whether you knew.

And if you didn't know, they were pretty
sure you'd ask your dad about it.

Frank, they got your house bugged.

Your phones.

How long?

They've been digging into your life
since the funeral.

They were just waiting for a chance to
get you. And the shooting was perfect

them.

What did they want to hear?

They want to embarrass you with it if it
goes to trial.

And if it doesn't, then they've still
got something they can hold over you.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. They said that they had
ruined my career and my whole life.

But it's okay to ruin mine, huh?

You know what?

Go ahead.

Shoot yourself.

You're dead to me.

Call that IA guy, that Neil guy. Give me
a face -to -face.

We're going to be here a while.

Dad, Frank, again.

Look, pick up the phone. I need to talk
to you.

Dad, come on.

Okay, call me back as soon as you get
this message, but don't call my cell,

don't call the house.

Use this number that I gave you.

This is wired half in your house. Have
you said anything that they can use?

Yeah, everything.

Look at the monkey dance.

Rabbi, give me yourself.

Keep trying, my dad.

Yeah.

Sounds like they're doing one hell of a
boss job on you.

Yeah, you help me out?

Maybe. I don't know.

Look, I just need a name. I think I know
who it is, but I gotta be sure.

Meet me in front of command in two
hours. If I don't have it by then, I

have it. All right, Frank.

Frank, hey, you talk to my dad?

We'll go after Deputy Chief Landy.
You're going to have to go after a half

more of them.

Let's start with this guy here.

Barnum.

Part of his division.

He pulled off that funeral.

Frank, you embarrassed him.

Then you did it again with the strike.

I embarrassed him, and that's what this
is all about.

Barnum is Landy's golden boy.

You tarnished his image.

Who else knows they're screwing with me?

Take your pick.

The land needs to be groomed for the
chief's job by, I don't know, someone on

the city council, the police board,
maybe even the mayor.

Hard to say.

It provides logic and gravity.

It all rolls up.

What do

you want, Frank?

My father died last night.

Anything you had on him to use against
me?

Died with him.

And when the public thinks the cop's out
of control, they're going to see your

face. And I promise you that.

You think this can't be pulled down?

Our problem, he knows us.

Come on, vote for him, Doc.

I already got the damn job. Hey, enough
said, enough said.

I give you our new president of the
Police Protective Association, Frank

I did not win this election.

You won this election.

And I am not the union.

We are the union.

And together, together, tonight, we are
putting Chief Wyckoff, All

the deputy chiefs and the entire police
board on notice.

There will never be another officer in
this city sacrificed on the altar of

someone's personal or political agenda.

Chief Wyckoff.

Phil. What brings you down to the big
city on a weekday? You, actually.

Really? Got a minute? Sure.

Walk with me.

So how are you getting along with this
new union boss of yours?

Sounds like a royal pain in the ass.

Well, ask me next week after we have our
budget meeting with the city council.

How'd you like to put in between a rock
and a hard place before that?

Have a listen to this.

Thanks for coming, Frank.

I wasn't sure you were going to show.

You wired it?

No.

And you, Frank?

Thought about it.

A couple of days ago, a troll cop
stopped a guy speeding on a highway up

of here.

The guy was tweaking, so he searched his
car.

Came up with an ounce of meth, a
shotgun.

And a police uniform in the trunk.

There's an interview with a detective.

We ripped off eight dealers the same
way. You're dressed like a cop. It's

in, easy out. Right, okay.

So two real cops jumped the door? Then
what happened?

Hey, Mike!

Talk!

What do we do if they come in?

Okay, then.

Good luck.

Thanks. Why's that?

Because he's a real cop.

How do you think we got the uniforms?

Mike, what's his last name?

Uh, Budansky.

Got big.

Yeah.

They're the Union, Frank.

Mike Belong to you. It's your call.

What do these guys want?

They want your permission to use lethal
force to bring him down.

They want to kill him.

He was going to kill two of us.

So when is this happening?

A couple hours from now, first light.

What if I just went and shot Mike
myself?

Would that have been okay?

Look, you can always just say no, Frank.

But if word gets out that you gave a
free pass to a cop who was going to kill

other cops, you're going to lose the
trust of the membership. You're going to

lose the union.

And if I say yes, you're sanctioning
murder.

Well, yeah.

Doesn't look very good for you either
way, I guess, does it?

Tell them they got a no -knock warrant.

They want to go in hard, they want to
kill him.

Give me a game.

Scared the hell out of me. Hey, Mike.

How come you're wearing your uniform?

You ripped somebody off tonight?

I see it's paying off for you.

That's all it's about.

This is about a posse of police officers
that are on their way here right now to

shoot you dead.

Why?

Because they found out that you wanted
to shoot two of us.

Dead.

So tell me.

What should I do?

You think I should let him?

You should get out of my house before I
forget you and I were once friends.

Take a look out the window, Mike.

Dark sedan across the street.

They're waiting for the tactical unit to
show up.

I got Billy and Daryl out there right
now.

Keeping them at bay, keeping them busy.

For now.

You never used to call for tactical?

No.

They would always get in our way,
wouldn't they?

But tonight, Mike, they're here to get
in your way.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, look, how about this, Mike, okay?

Let's go to the back door, man.

Let me go.

You got someone here.

You're really that far gone.

You're not giving me a chance, man.

I am giving you a chance, Mike.

You really need to take this one.

You turn yourself in. I was never here,
you understand?

We'll call it a crisis of conscience.

On your knees, Mike.

Hands behind your back, knees apart.

Okay.

Just at least let me change my uniform
last time.

Get down on your knees, Mike.

Now.

Don't take me in my uniform!

Come on, Brad! Don't take me in my
uniform, man!

I hear Mike turned himself in.

Yeah.

Hell of a thing, huh?

Well, the night guy just gets a crisis
of conscience.

I chopped it up, didn't I?

Same goes for you, Ed.

Does that mean I owe you for this?

We'll see how you do.

What's wrong now?

They're in real estate together.

The question was, where are they getting
their investment capital, but... It's

coming from the bikers.

Let me tell you what's going to happen.

I'm cleaning up this department, top to
bottom. That's a given.

The question then becomes...

Do you want to help me out?

Or do you want to be thrown out?

You're the garbage.

You're a hell of a quick study for a guy
who once told me all you ever wanted to

be was a good cop.

Yeah, well, sometimes life tells you
what it wants you to do.

Hey, Frank.

Hey, Ross. What's up?

Not too much.

It's a nice neighborhood.

I like your house.

Thanks.

I gotta talk to you, Frank. Can you talk
to me for a minute?

Yeah, sure.

I've got a minute.

Who's in your car?

It's Lisa, my wife. You met her.

Right. Yeah, Lisa.

Um...

Listen, why don't you come in? I'll make
some coffee. Tell her to come in. We'll

talk. She can't, Frank. She's dead.

Where's the baby, Ross?

It's at her sister's house.

I just moved back in and, you know, her
sister was giving us some time to get

back on her feet.

So... And how's that going?

Great at first.

It was an accident, Frank. I swear to
God. All right.

I'm just going to make a phone call,
okay?

Okay. You stay with me? Yep.

All right, pal.

Just hang on.

Okay.

Abby, it's Frank. No, I haven't been to
sleep. Just listen to me, okay?

I need you to do a couple of things.

First of all, I need you to call Rabbi.

I need a paramedic unit. No lights, no
sirens, totally off the books. I need

to go to Ross's old place. He knows
where it is.

Down the way from me there.

Two. I need you to call Tommy.

Get a couple of uniforms that we can
trust.

Send them over to my place. Again, off
the books, just tell them there's a

package that needs to be taken back to
where it came from.

And then I need you over here, ASAP.

All right? I'll explain when you get
here.

Thank you.

I am so scared to go to prison.

Hey, Ross.

Look at me.

Look at me.

I'm not going to come to that.

But if it does, I promise you, you will
not be alone. I will walk you in there

myself. You will never be alone.

We're going to help you out through
this. All of us. Okay?

Yeah.

I guess my life is in your hands, huh?
