Previously on Third Walk. Allie, my people are the kind you've been trying

squeeze out of business. This ain't over yet. If not, I'm going to be in your

life a lot. You were always like that. Even when you were a little kid, you

always getting into fights. Yes, ma 'am.

On the bulletin board, there's another sergeant test coming up.

Really? I might take it. I'm taking Joey to a net skin. Would you come with us?

I don't think that's a good idea. I don't want him thinking that we're back

together again. Tell him we're just dating.

He doesn't want us to date. He wants us to be married.

I want to tell everyone what he's talking about. About us, I want them to

It's okay.

Oh, yes.

Where are you going?

We still have two hours before our next trip.

One sec. Give me one sec.

One hour and 59 minutes.

58, man.

What are you doing?

I'll be better this time, Kim.

I'll treat you better. I'll love you better.

Will you marry me?

Again?

I love you.

I love you.

Oh, my

God.

How you doing, Mrs. Johnson?

You're the mayor. No, no, no. First, I become police commissioner.

Then I run for city council. Then I slide into the mayor's office. That's

-year plan. Yeah?

What's the 5 -year plan? The 5 -year plan is to find a good man to have my

so when I reach the 10 -year plan, I can focus on my job.

55 David, respond to a vehicle versus pedestrian accident with injuries at 101

and Denton. Possible hit and run.

55 David responding.

Holy moly, you make that much more than us. How many arms and legs did this cost

the children of Sierra Leone?

Give it a rest, Levine, will you? She'll change her tune when it's her turn. The

diamond trade in Africa is the leading part. It's from Austria.

It's from Germany.

Hey, excuse me.

Didn't mean to interrupt the engagement party. How can we help you? Jack

Steeper. I'm just going to put my stuff down over here.

Your stuff?

Yeah, I'm your new captain.

Downtown didn't say anything about a new captain.

You're Doherty, right? Yeah, I'm the lieutenant here. I don't expect Downtown

say anything about you moving to Bed -Stuy either.

No, they want you to work rescue down there.

Oh, way to go, Jimmy. You're kidding me.

When I'm kidding, I'm a lot funnier than this.

Squad 55 and Boy 553 respond to a report of a building fired 118. Do you mind if

I take this room? I guess not. No, no, let's go.

You don't want to go best idea?

No, I thought you didn't want to live on our drum in the firehouse.

We've been here forever. I know. This is a great opportunity, Jimmy. You know

what? Just worry about planning our wedding.

Consider this our first gift.

Everybody just back up.

Hey, baby, keep your head still. Keep your head still. Where's the driver? The

guy ran that way. Some kids followed him.

Guys?

Come on, man. You got this?

Let's go.

I got her head.

Is this what your constituents do when you hit a kid in Harlem?

Don't you get to the line, all right?

You're with me, all right? You know what? We're going to make it a two and a

half. Let's start venting this building, okay? You're going to come in? I'm

going to be incident commander for the chief of riot.

Do you want to go to a rescue? This is turning out to be one hell of a day.

They're on the second floor. How do you know that? I own the place. There's

about 20 people in the back room. 5 -5, Captain. 5 -5, Lieutenant.

We've got more people up on the second floor.

No!

5 -5, Lieutenant. 5 -5, Captain. We're headed that way. Right there.

We've got more. Come on. Here you go. Keep eating, Leon.

Yes, keep going.

Watch out.

Did he kill her? Come on, man. Tell me something. Did

he kill her? If you get... The hell out of the way we can save this girl's life.

Hey, let's go. Doc, we got a guy around the corner. We got to go, Doc.

Hey, I need you to drive to Mercy.

Adam 553 to Central. We're going to need another bus at this location.

We've got multiple victims.

He's dead.

That's one miracle. I can't work yet.

5 -5, David.

Notify the patrol supervisor and the squad. We have a confirmed DOA at this

location.

5 -5, Cap. 5 -5. How we doing up there? 5 -5, Cap. We're going up the soft

stair.

There you go. Let's go. Keep flanking. Keep flanking. Come on. Hit it right up

there. Right up there, we are.

Let's move. Move. Come on, guys. 5 -5, Cap. Are you sure there's a backup?

So that's the man that hit the little girl.

See the guys that chased after him?

Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you.

What happened?

Guy hit a young girl around the corner. We found him like this.

Anyone see anything?

If they did, they won't tell us.

Right, Mayor Monroe?

Back up, Basta.

Hey, Luther.

Where you going? I didn't see nothing.

Did I ask if you saw something?

I was sleeping.

This would have been like an alarm clock.

Holding any paraphernalia there, Luther?

Paraphernalia what?

Oh, what's this?

Oh, now, Luther, dirty.

Hey, that's not mine, all right?

Oh, you give me some names, I forget about this.

Come on, Cruz.

It's going to be hard to score in county lockup.

It was Derek and his boy.

From the rec center on 106th?

It was fighting with the white boy.

Bam, the white boy went down and they fought.

You sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Can I go now?

Bye.

You're not going to believe some bloodshot crackhead.

Oh, I'm sorry. And how are you going to handle this?

Right. Let's go get these guys.

I can go. I know that place. Yeah, I know it too. Why don't you just wait for

the ME and finish your paperwork?

Wow.

This is good.

She's pushing around a crackhead.

The regular is crazy.

In the back.

Keep that thing.

No more buses on the way. Right. Come on. Go!

All right, keep quaking. Come on.

Look, I'm saying, Billy, come on. You're with me. Let's go.

Keep that line there.

We're going at low.

Come on.

All right, use the housing. Let's go.

Put that housing in there. Come on, Billy.

Come on. Open it open.

You got it.

There you go. Good, good.

Keep your head down. Move, move, move, move.

You got him, Billy?

I got him. All right. Hey, what are you waiting for? Let's go. Come on.

Please help me.

Please help me. Calm down.

Calm down, all right, honey? It's going to be okay.

Look at me. It's going to be okay.

Jimmy!

Rachel! Rachel!

Firefighter Karen on the second floor!

Jim!

Over here!

Where's Jimmy?

He'll be out.

Why is that fire too close to him? Don't worry about that. These people need

help. Is it Jimmy? Not now, Kim.

Come out of there. I can't breathe.

Come on.

Poor schmuck took a wrong turn right into the grave.

How's the little girl?

Still alive.

Okay, let's put him in the cage.

Jill.

Tony, what are you doing here?

Oh, he was at the rec center along with everyone else. The whole crew aren't

even smart enough to hide.

You guys start the pedigrees. I'm going to go see if the interrogation room is

free. Sarge, Tony wasn't on the scene.

Well, I haven't determined that yet.

Well, I'm trying to save you time and let you know Tony was not on the scene.

Well, if you want to save me some time, finish your report so you can help me

with the interview.

Oh my God.

It's alright.

It's going to be alright.

It's going to be alright.

It's going to be alright.

It's going to be alright.

It's going to be alright. It's going to be alright.

It's going to be alright.

It's going to be alright.

i want everyone to know about us i want them to know

He's out. Kim.

Levine, take her.

I got her.

You got her?

Come here. Sit down.

All units, this environment is located.

Yes, we made it.

So you've been in and out of juvie, Sean.

So what?

So you got so angry one day you beat a guy unconscious?

I can't believe everything you read.

Is that what happened today? You got so mad at this guy for hitting that girl,

you beat him till his lights went out? No, that's not what happened.

Enlighten me then. I can't. I wasn't there.

I wasn't.

You guys can't just pick us up for no reason.

No reason?

The city frowns on thugs leaving dead guys all over the street.

But Monique, I guess nobody cares about her.

There was an ambulance and police on the scene in less than two minutes, buddy.

There was? Yeah, she's at the hospital right now getting treated.

What more would you have wanted to see done for her?

Huh?

The girl's on the ground.

Yeah. So you drag him out of the car, chase him down, and beat him because he

hit her?

No. Come on.

I got people that thought you.

Then they're lying. You have every right to be mad. This guy hit your friend

with a car. Who wouldn't want to kill him? That's not what happened. You're

putting words in my mouth. Okay, well then why don't you tell me what happened

in your words?

I told you. I was at the rec center when it happened.

Take him away.

Go get the other one.

Tony? Sorry, I already told you. Tony had nothing to do with it. Officer.

Bring him in.

Call him up.

Are you making any headway in here? I'm trying.

The faster, the better, Sarge. I'm getting calls from downtown.

That kid's family's got a direct line to City Hall. He's the nephew of a

councilman or something.

Okay, don't worry about it.

I got a feeling we got the break coming right around the corner.

Let me know right away, Sarge. As soon as I do.

Well, if it isn't my old friend, Tony.

Have a seat.

Tony and I are going to do a little catching up.

What? Go finish your reports. But there's no... Just tell her where you

Tony.

35 -year -old firefighter, male, with smoke inhalation, positive CO,

BP 140 over 80, rest 26.

What happened to Jimmy? He fell through the floor at that burning warehouse.

You all right? Yeah, I should be. Is that Jack Steeple? Yeah, he's our new

What? Yeah, Jimmy got a promotion.

When did this happen?

Today.

Guess downtown forgot to tell us.

See you guys later.

What?

You know him or something?

Yeah, he's a bean counter from headquarters.

He doesn't run stations. He closes them.

I know we're in backlog.

We're always in backlog. I need to find my son.

We're doing the best that we can.

Officer.

Officer.

My neighbor said my son was arrested at our rec center, Lamont Harris.

They weren't arrested, but some kids were barred in for questioning.

There was a killing earlier.

My son didn't kill anyone. I'm sure he didn't, ma 'am. You can't talk to him

without a lawyer.

He didn't ask for one. He's a child. In the state of New York, he's an adult.

I'm sorry, ma 'am. Got it, boss.

I'm going to cut the rest of the kids loose.

What happened, Sarge? Tony confessed.

But he didn't do it. Not what he said.

Why don't you let me talk to him? Why? It can't be. I saw him. Well, it must

have been someone who looked like him.

What was that about?

She's got the wrong guy.

She must have coerced him some way. You don't accuse the sergeant of coercing a

confession. Well, what else could it be? We saw him before the call came through

the radio. There's no way he could have got back.

I didn't see him.

You didn't see him coming out of the bodega with groceries?

How can you be so sure that was him? That was him.

Even if it was him, he had time to drive back to the scene.

Oh, come on, man. I'm not buying it. You want to go back and time it?

Look at this kid's seat.

Assault. Possession of a deadly weapon.

Attempted murder. He didn't do it, Bosco.

Downtown's happy.

Happy enough to get me out of the bag?

You're back in anti -crime. Way to go, Cruz. Do you see? Do you see what I'm

saying? She's doing all this just to get her crew back.

It's none of your business. It is my business.

Monroe.

What do you want?

I saw you earlier.

No. What about your baby girl and your mom? Aren't you thinking about them?

That's all I'm thinking about.

If I roll on this now, maybe I can get five years on a manslaughter instead of

life or a homicide. What does she do to make you take this deal?

What are you doing?

I'm talking to the prisoner unless there's a reason you don't want me to. I

don't want you to.

Hey, yo.

I want to go to Central Booking. You're done now, thank you.

This ain't over.

Oh, yes, it is.

His carboxyhemoglobin and ABG are normal. He might be a little lightheaded

later, but he's okay for discharge.

Got lucky.

Not luck.

Look, Kim.

All I'm saying is that...

If you're worrying about things you can't control, it's a waste of your time

energy. Oh, man.

Look at this.

Huh? It's like silly putty. Yeah, even my bunkers are discolored. Look at that.

How bad was the fire in that hole? Oh, man, that fire just rolled over us. It

was just like going under a semi.

You're going to get a lot of action like that in a rescue company. I hope so.

In bedside, you count on them. Yeah? I'm just glad you're okay.

I hate like hell to have to explain how I lost one of my boys before I even got

my bags unpacked. Just remember it was us who saved this sorry -ass cat. Whoa,

whoa, save me.

I was completely in control.

She looked awful glad to see us.

Oh, man, you know, the truth is, when that floor collapsed for a second there,

couldn't think of a better way to go.

Kim.

Why are you going to the wall for this guy?

Because it's not easy for me to put a kid in jail.

We had no problem putting Ali Nardo in jail and all of his goombas.

Oh, I get it.

That's one of your people.

I would do this if the kid was purple.

When was the last time you saw a kid from Harlem copped a manslaughter in

minutes? Come on.

These guys know the system better than we do.

All right, he's caught. He's trying to make the best play he can.

And what have you seen?

A guilty kid kick a police officer out of a room who believes he's innocent.

I was in the other room tutoring.

I heard a commotion, so I came out. They were gathered in the corner.

Who was gathered?

Tony, Lamont, Derek, and little Sean.

They were huffing and puffing. I asked them what was wrong. They wouldn't say

anything. I assumed it was a gang fight. Are you sure Tony was here? Yeah, he

just made a run to the store.

He works here, right?

His probation officer has him giving back.

Why? Is he saying he wasn't around?

Tony confessed to manslaughter.

But you're telling me you don't know if he came in with the other guys or if he

was here the whole time, right? They got the right guy.

How do you know?

Tony's a thug. For life.

Crime in this community will go down as soon as he's in Rikers.

Tony's trying to get his life together.

Because he buys diapers for his baby now?

He has no job. He hangs out in the middle of the courtyard all day.

Look, I'm trying to teach these kids right.

And that animal's probably teaching Lamont and little Sean how to keep

more junk through here.

Thanks for your help, Jamal.

Let's go get something to eat.

I want a can with the neighborhood.

Are you kidding me?

Sasha, face it. You don't know this community the way you think you do.

If you don't want to, you don't have to, but I'm going.

So, all you're here to do is transfer a door. I'm here to evaluate the station.

Make sure things are working. Is that what you did at station 33 and then two

weeks later you close them down?

No one's closing anything.

They don't call you Steeper the Reaper for nothing.

Is that what they call me?

Yeah.

They do.

Don't act like you never heard it before.

Don't mind him.

So, what'd downtown say?

They processed your paper over a month ago.

It's supposed to be in the mail. I don't know what happened.

I want you in bed -stuy at the end of the week.

Damn. That's quick.

You'll like it there. It's busier.

Lots of building fires. Rescues.

Just last month, they had a scaffolding rescue and a trench collapse.

Sounds like you hit the jackpot.

Boy 55 responding.

Levine! Kim, wait up.

What's going on? Are you all right?

Yeah, why?

What happened at the hospital? I mean, you came in the room and you left.

No, I'm fine.

Go ahead. I'll be right there.

Um, you know, today's been kind of stressful, that's all.

I gotta go. All right, so we'll hook up later?

Yeah, go home and rest, and I'll stop by after the shift.

Did you see Liberty?

Liberty? My dog.

Uh... Sorry.

Mrs. Sherman, did you see the fight today?

I heard a noise out front.

I ran over to the window, and some kids were fighting with a young white guy.

They had him cornered, and one of them hit him with all his might.

The guy fell down, and they ran.

Are you sure?

These old eyes don't lie, sugar.

Now, do you know the kid that hit him? I sure do.

It was the one with the glasses.

Lamont Harris.

Tall, thin boy.

Yeah, that's Lamont.

Then it was him.

Now, are you absolutely sure?

Absolutely.

There he is!

Liberty! Were you sitting on him?

Come on now, Liberty.

I've got your dinner.

They didn't hurt you now, did they, honey?

You're sitting on Liberty.

You're sitting on Liberty.

Enough, Bosco.

Oh, come on.

You know what you need? You need a sense of humor.

The imaginary doctor's not changed what the woman saw.

Are you serious?

It doesn't. Well, how do you think a jury would see it? Tony didn't do it.

He confessed, Sasha.

He confessed because he was under pressure.

He confessed, and your witness is a lunatic.

Let it go.

I know you didn't do this, and I'm going to make sure that officer pays for

browbeating you into this confession.

Nobody punked me. I have a witness who saw Lamont Harris throw a punch at O

'Neal. And she's going to testify to that in court. Why don't you just give

up? She's good as gold, man. So?

I can take seven years in the joint.

Lamont can't. He murdered someone.

No, he didn't. He tried to stop it.

That dude was drunk and ran away.

So Lamont ran after him and tried to get him to come back.

But old boy started swinging at him.

Next thing they knew, they were in the middle of a fight.

Lamont took a swing.

Bam. Dude hit the deck hard.

He was scared.

So was Lil Sean.

So they booked.

They ran into the rec center and told me. So I'm right. You weren't there.

Why didn't you call me? I could have worked something out for you. That white

boy was dead. Only thing y 'all wanted to work out was locking one of us up.

Let me do this, Sasha.

Please.

I ain't got nothing going on.

But Lamont, dang, he can get out of here.

He's got good grades, taking classes I can't even pronounce.

He already got a scholarship to Duke. That does not make it right, Tony.

Ready for your class, Tony?

You coming?

Hey, Lou.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

You have to. We've got a press conference to do.

So where's your girl?

What?

Monroe? She's not my girl.

I thought you and I were cool.

I don't really know or care if you're cool.

And she's allowed to disagree with you.

Oh, so first it was Yocas and now it's Monroe. What are you, a damsel in

distress guy?

I'm out of this. Okay, well, why don't you tell your girl just to stay away

my case? I'm not going back in the uniform because of her. I'll get right

that.

I told you, let it die.

He didn't do it. So what?

It was an accident, Vasco. The kid taking the fall has changed.

If you take that flip -flopping kid and that batty old lady into the ADA, they

will laugh you out of the office.

I don't know what to do.

Monroe, sometimes the right thing to do isn't the right thing to do.

Bob Cohen, most of the time it is.

Called you all morning. Yeah, I turned the phone off.

Did I do something wrong?

You told the guy yesterday you couldn't think of a better way to go.

I did? Yeah, you said when the floor went through for a second, you were okay

die.

That's not what I meant.

Now I want...

Kicking and screaming when I'm about a hundred.

And I want to live to see my grandchildren and my great

great -great -grandchildren. Yeah, well, I do too.

No, Jimmy.

You don't.

Not really.

You, you... You want to go out and play the glory.

Kim, what are you saying?

I actually forgot what it was like standing outside of a burning building

wondering whether you were going to make it or not.

I've been doing this our whole lives.

No, but since we've been apart I haven't had to worry about it.

Not like I used to.

Look, I... All I meant yesterday was that I

thought I might not make it and...

I wasn't afraid.

Not that I wanted to die.

Only... I just wasn't afraid.

Don't do this.

I can't marry you, Jimmy.

I've changed.

I know.

You already have a wife.

And I'm not willing to share you with a child.

What's up?

I need to talk to him.

You mind if I come in?

Is this you?

Yeah. My mom's a pack rat.

Mine's too.

Except instead of awards, we had old Ebony and Jet magazines stacked to the

ceiling.

What can I help you with?

I mean, I told the detectives everything I know.

Do you realize there was a little old lady who witnessed everything?

Well, yeah, the detective said that somebody ID'd us, but they never said

was. She's a very respectable citizen like yourself.

And when she gets on that witness stand, she's going to be very persuasive.

She saw you hit Brian O 'Neal. Tony hit him. Tony wasn't there.

I think you should go.

Why?

Just getting good here.

We know it was an accident.

You're not supposed to be here.

With no record?

If we get a sympathetic DA, you're looking at probation.

Felony probation?

How's that going to look on my pre -law application?

Listen to me.

You did the right thing by trying to take that guy back to the scene, but

letting your friend take the rap isn't.

Now look, I've heard a lot of good things about you, Lamont, but this ain't

What's going on?

This will haunt you for the rest of your life. What will haunt him? They're

trying to say that I killed that guy. You already had the boy who killed him.

Tony didn't do it. Tony Simmons is a criminal. He's always been a criminal.

Simmons is trying to get his life together.

His life.

My oldest son, James, was shot and killed by someone shooting at that

You really think I give a damn about his life? I'm sorry for your loss, ma 'am,

but that doesn't make this right.

Get out of my house. Your son did this in self -defense.

Lamont didn't do anything.

Lamont, why don't you save us all time right now? Monroe,

let's go.

Monroe, you're the cop everyone talks about? You look after people.

This ain't looking out.

My son is a good boy.

Not some poor black teenager you can pick up just to fill a quota. I am

out for someone, Mrs. Harris. It just happens to be somebody that nobody else

cares about.

You have a nice evening.

Make sure we don't put the wrong guy in jail and the bitch is calling me a tom.

It's over.

I'm bringing in the old lady.

It's not going to work.

Yes, it is.

It has to.

This is how it starts.

They start transferring people, checking our run sheets, and then one day they

lock the doors. He says that's not why he's here. He says.

He says.

We should go out for drinks or something tonight.

You're paying? Of course we're paying.

Levine, you coming?

Sorry, yoga.

Carlos, how about you?

I'm in.

Anyone see my hot sauce?

Hot sauce?

Yeah, I got it from New Orleans.

I'll take it with me. I think I saw it the other day.

You should find out if he's closing the firehouse or not. What are you talking

about? Steeper said he transferred here as the new captain. And you believe him?

It's the truth, Parker.

For the fifth time, this house is not closing.

Good. We got a lot of good firefighters here.

Hell of a team. I saw that myself yesterday.

Happy?

You guys are stupid.

You guys are stupid, you know?

Stupid. Uh -huh.

Found it.

Hot sauce.

Let me talk to Cruz.

I got this.

Hey, Sarge, we have the old lady that has the info on the O 'Neal case. We

need her. But she's the one who's going to help prove Tony didn't do it. We

don't need her.

What, he turned himself in?

I don't know what you said to him, Monroe, but that must have been pretty

persuasive. Because now instead of one kid couldn't get his life together, I

two. The case was unraveling. Yeah, because you wouldn't let it go.

And now a three -day student goes to jail and comes out with a felony record.

What job is he going to get?

What is his education going to be?

I know I did the right thing.

Tony is a predicate felon.

He's dealt more drugs in this community than you will ever bust. He's got his

hands on more murders than you will ever solve. And one time in his life, he

does something heroic. My job is to find the answers. Your job is to sort them

out. You said you wanted a promotion. Well, then you're going to have to

that this job is not always going to be black and white.

I tried to teach Bosco that, but he wouldn't listen.

I thought you were smarter than an officer.

Come on, the beers aren't getting any colder, Lieutenant.

Oh, come on. Stop rushing me.

This is the last time I'm leaving this house as a member of the best damn squad

in the city.

You're not going to cry now, are you?

Yeah, I'm going to cry. Go downstairs, man. I'll be down there in a sec.

Whoo! Smells good, Billy.

Got a couple scrambling for me. Double that up, huh?

Oh, man, look at the day.

You asking me out on a date? If you don't want it, then yeah, I'm going to

find a date.

Yes or no?

Think fast. It's Friday.

Go to the bar?

Why don't you come?

No, thanks.

Well, you think just because you gave me the greenback, I'm giving up?

I'm way tougher than that, Kimmy.

Way tougher.

I'll see you soon.

Gotcha on the rock, huh?

Nice place you got here, Rose.

Charmed.

Do I know you?

Rose Moscarelli, right?

Right.

I didn't realize I was so famous.

I know your son.

The cop.

Oh, yeah?

Tell her, sweetheart.
