Original subtitles

Our new player is the Kimura.

Rival gang looking to take advantage of the Los Santos power vacuum.

Jump again!

I can't!

I've seen these before.

It's the way the Kimura gets their message out to their foot soldiers.

Fernando, don't!

I've got a C .I. from back in my Italian days, Isabella Spadano.

I give you your freedom.

A horse farm or no deal.

I'm going to see if she can decode this prayer card for us.

How are the grandkids?

Pietro is still obsessed with opera.

Roman is doing these things called part -time.

She was telling me about her grandson opening a brewery. That brewery is

zero for this investigation.

Get out!

There was no time. Everything happened so fast.

And right in front of your home with your son and pregnant daughter -in -law.

That must have been harrowing for all of you.

They're not married.

Sorry?

My son and his girlfriend, they're not married. You seem interested in details,

so... And that's the detail you find the most relevant?

That the baby is safe is what's relevant and important.

And the rest of this is, you know... The department wants to know how my marbles

are stacked up. You know, I... I know how this works.

You were in a very serious automobile crash.

A child died... I'm not going to talk about that.

And since this incident, you've had to deal with quite a few stressful

situations. Now, everyone's recovery is different, but the science is very

clear. Stress does not aid in the healing process.

These check -ins are meant to track your progress.

And I'm all for it.

So let's cut to the chase. Tell me what you think so that I can work on myself,

and then we can all just move on down the road together.

What I see and find concerning is that you seem completely disconnected.

It's as if the events of the other night, the drive -by shooting, happened

someone else.

Well, you know, if you don't have a mechanism to cope with the bad things

come your way in this job or in this life, I mean, you're just not going to

it. You're not going to last six months.

Detective Stabler, to be sure of oneself is a powerful attribute.

It can be a dangerous one, too.

Mm -hmm. Well... It's called compartmentalization.

You taking me off active duty?

You're not in obvious distress, but whether you're ready to get back out

is another story.

Conditional relief?

What the hell is that?

It means she's extending her sessions. She wants to see me once a week for the

next three months.

Your silence speaks volumes.

Yeah, well, I mean, you need it.

It was out on your plate. More than you care to deal with.

Maybe I can fit in an extra session with you since you know so much. You should.

I'm perfectly well adjusted.

Right. All right, well, I'm at the church now, so I'll talk to you later.

Thank you.

Detectives?

I didn't expect to see you here.

You don't want to pay my respects?

Did you know Fernando?

No, did you? What are you doing? You shouldn't be here.

Pietro, respect him.

Hey, we're living in a time and place, all right?

Why don't you take grandma and go take a seat?

Apologize for my brother. He's just overwrought with grief.

Hey.

How you doing, Roman?

We haven't spoken.

Yeah, I know Take care, right?

It's about to start

That's definitely a Yamaha. My brother has one.

Master or Zinger?

Zinger.

How do you... Well, I was on the motocross circuit for a while.

They definitely have a thing for dirt bikes. I mean, these models are about

grand a pop.

Yeah, thankfully they're skilled at that and not an Uzi.

Amen to that.

I've been hearing an awful lot of amens today. My grandmama used to say you

can't hear enough.

Smart lady. How'd it go downtown?

One PP is on edge.

They're hearing the same thing we are. Chatter in the streets wants to know if

we have answers.

And do we?

CCTV gave us the make and model of the motocross dirt bike.

Yeah, and I interviewed a dozen local cops.

Won't find a receipt without Shooter's name on it. Bikes are either stolen or

cash retails.

Vargas, you want to shake the family tree?

Do you think Marcia is involved?

Do you?

I can't get a read on her yet, but...

I am definitely open to that possibility.

Thanks for calling.

But Roman Spizzano, I kind of like him as a possible center of everything.

Based on what? His brother Pietro, the kid has changed. He's drunk the Kool

-Aid. He has or wants to join his local piranhas.

Older brother influencing the younger.

Wouldn't be the first time.

Okay, what about the church, Our Lady of the Cross?

Well, we know two of their piranhas are altar boys there.

Where are we with IDing the third?

We need to talk to him.

That was the perp I busted last week.

The one inside Los Santos?

One and the same.

Looks like with Carlos Pescador out of the way, they're in disarray.

So who's running the show?

Some new heavy out of the DR.

Saw a spot opening and took it and took over.

So if Los Santos is looking for new blood... Would I like to apply for the

Hell yeah.

Vargas, give me your ID on altar boy number three and set our newborn

up with some Los Santos street cred.

On it. Street cred.

Didn't expect to see you here.

You okay, kid?

No, I'm not okay.

Good. Hey.

I appreciate you helping out, but shouldn't you be at school?

What is it?

Who's important?

No, don't feel like it.

Hey.

The hell are you talking about?

You want to be like Sal here?

If you go to school, get a real job.

Oh, God, no. Don't do that.

Why are you here, Pietro?

I'm here because Fernando was family.

Hey.

Fernando was a soldier.

And he was willing to do whatever it takes to protect his own, to protect his

family.

Are you?

Yeah.

All right.

You come with me.

I gotta give you something. I think you're ready.

We grew up together.

Fernando always said he was gonna be the next Messi, but he couldn't pass for

shit.

He didn't go to his funeral.

My mom, well, we don't go to that church anymore.

Why not?

Do you know Father Minetti?

He used to be the priest there.

He's a family friend.

He left Our Lady last year.

Was he reassigned or recalled?

I don't know. How about the new guy?

It's Father DeLuca.

I don't know him.

My mom didn't really like him, though.

Why is that?

She said he reminded her too much of home.

Home being Italy?

She was born and raised there, right?

Yeah.

Naples, right?

Yeah.

Okay, well, so, David, your friends are dead, right? And we

think you know why.

I'm not one of them, I swear.

But you were.

Fernando. It was Fernando.

He brought me in, he gave me a gun, but I never used it, I swear.

That still doesn't explain why you left Our Lady of the Cross.

I told her.

My mom, I told her all about the gun, and she lost her shit. And she told me

drop the gun in the East River.

We never went back to church after that.

She said that she'd rather see me in purgatory than jail.

Do I need a lawyer?

I think I need a lawyer.

What are you thinking?

I'm thinking I need to go to confession.

Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.

May the Lord be in your heart.

How long has it been?

Since my wife was murdered four years ago because of a case I was

You're a police officer.

Yeah, I am.

Not a problem.

Your God sold you.

He owed you in his favor.

I've been using God's name in vain an awful lot. I've been keeping my word.

In what way?

Oh.

I promised people that I would save them, give them a better life.

In your line of work, those must be difficult promises to keep.

There's so much out of my control.

Other influences leading them astray.

You can only do what you can do.

God will see to the rest.

Yeah.

He's been dropping the ball lately.

You've lost your faith.

There are children dying on the streets of this parish.

Being turned into killers.

So explain to me how that part of it...

The Holy Father has designed for all of us

some things we aren't meant to understand.

Well, if that really is his plan, then I'm going to do everything I can to stop

it. So, I guess we should add prideful defiance to my list of sins, huh?

Satan can disguise himself as an angel of light.

Okay. 2 Corinthians, chapter 11, verse 14.

Is that so?

I'm ready to put in work.

A little burnout for the dance bar, aren't you?

I could be peewee, street soldier, whatever you need me to be.

So you want to join the war?

Bro, the way I see it, shit is fucked up out there.

And it's not getting any better with me sitting around here holding my dick.

And you know who we're up against?

Hell yeah.

Makes me miss those cigar -smoking skin bags.

Well, at least the mob have respect for the business.

These Camaro clowns, they're no better than wild dogs.

Well,

I'd be happy to neuter a few myself.

Me too.

Pero ya sabes.

Dale.

Get up.

Get up.

No, no, no, no, no, no. Not there.

Not there. We don't need the world. I'm not in business.

Arreglate.

Fix yourself up.

Gracias.

Bienvenido.

And you're in luck.

We got a special guest tonight, the math.

I'm not there going.

Ciao. No. Ciao, ciao.

Looks like it went well.

When you're spending that kind of money, I think about it. Have you heard from

Pietro?

No, not since this morning.

He's not answering his phone.

I'm worried about him, Nona. He's been different.

Yeah, in my way.

He's upset about Fernando, and I get it.

It feels like there's more to it.

I can't explain it. It's like twin tuition or something.

Put these on.

Do it.

They want to take everything from us.

Our livelihood.

Our life.

Every fucking thing we care about.

Y este puto come mierda acá is one of them.

¡Nos llamamos tiranos!

¡Nos llamamos tiranos!

¡Esto es guerra!

¡Esto es guerra!

Miren.

Otra. No.

You're welcome.

Keep it there.

What's your name?

Nico.

You love your family, Nico?

What do you think they're going to feel when the cops tell them they found your

body in the river?

In pieces.

You're going to tell this man everything he wants to know.

Okay? Okay.

I like it.

You

will

be shot at.

You will be scared, but you will never be alone.

Understood?

Welcome, brother.

All right.

What's going on?

We found a place.

It's a two -bedroom, washer and dryer and unit.

Hey, Dad.

Hey. Guess what?

You found a place. Yeah, I found a place.

So I hear.

How'd you find it?

Uncle Randall got it for us.

Really?

He's not paying for it, Dad.

Just a spot opened up in his building.

Great. How can I help?

No, I think we're good.

I think we're good.

Okay.

Yay.

You must be Eli.

Oh, I would kill for a cigarette now.

When did you quit?

Oh, right after we moved here.

With Pietro who convinced me.

I'm sorry about what happened earlier today.

Not a problem.

But the other night, somebody tried to put a bullet in me right outside there

the street.

My God.

My son and his girlfriend were with me.

Do you know it was?

Two men on a motorcycle.

One with an Uzi.

Any idea who that might have been?

Of course I know.

I told you. The cancer will always find you. The Camorra are here.

I meant specifically.

I don't know what you're saying.

Can you tell me who was on that motorcycle?

How would I know?

What are you accusing me of? I'm not accusing you of anything.

I'm asking you what you know.

I don't know anything.

I came here tonight because I have a feeling that something is wrong.

I don't understand what that means.

Where the Camorra is, there is death.

Yes, and I think someone knew I was investigating the Camorra and they

stopped.

Tell me about Roman.

Roman, there's nothing to tell. He's a businessman.

And why are you asking me all these questions?

I'm just looking to have a clearer picture.

Of what?

Why don't you tell me what you know? What I know is part of an official

investigation, but I'll tell you what I think.

Okay.

I think you're worried about your grandchildren.

I think you should be.

Los Santos' new shot caller goes by Agosta.

Angel Agosta.

Must be on the passport or visa out of the DR.

We'll run it down. What's his play?

They're gearing up for something.

Strike against the Camorra. Yep.

But they're keeping the lid on everything and everyone.

I won't know the details until it's about to go down.

You already have eyes on the auto shop, but since you're on the inside... Fuck

no. These guys are paranoid.

They pat us down every meeting. They catch me with that shit, I'm dead. All

right, ma 'am.

Watch your back.

Anything else?

They have one of the Kimura kids named Nico.

I have no idea where they grabbed him. Do we need to come in?

For now, it's good, but it ain't gonna stay that way.

They're gonna end up getting rid of him eventually.

All right, keep me up, David.

I want to know everything there is to know about this guy.

By the time I'm done, we'll know more about Angel Acosta than he knows about

himself.

What about the kid, Nico?

There's still no missing persons reports filed under that name.

All right.

Keep looking.

You with me.

So I heard that Isabella Sposano showed up at your apartment last night.

One of the people called me. Now they think you're in too deep.

Oh, shit.

Yeah, she did. And she introduced herself to Eli. He must have told his

Look, I know you feel like you need to protect this woman because of your

history together, but don't keep me in the dark. I wasn't.

But I hear you.

Yeah.

I'll tell you what, I think she knows more than what she's saying.

So she's lying to you.

She wants to protect her grandson.

She came to me desperate.

Then why come to you?

Truth be told, I think it was a tactic.

A tactic.

Yeah. So reconnaissance mission.

Yes. Here we are in the investigation.

What we know.

Chase Smart.

Yeah. And ballsy. Yes.

And dangerous.

I got my distance.

Okay. Well, make sure you keep it.

And keep me in the loop.

Guide's messenger awaits.

All right. We'll pick up with this later. Yeah.

While I try to be a positive influence in their lives, I'm not aware of what my

parishioners do away from the church.

Well, the only reason I ask is because recently there's been an uptick in gang

-related violence in your parish.

I've been watching the news. It's terrible, just terrible.

Did you know Fernando Russo and Jason Conti? Yes, two good boys, two tragic

senseless deaths. How about David Bianchi?

The name doesn't ring a bell.

He was an altar boy?

Perhaps if you'd explain what this is about, I'd be better able to help the

detective.

Yeah.

These are prayer cards we hand out at Our Lady of the Cross. Right.

Here. These markings, do they mean anything to you?

I'm sorry, I don't know. I have no idea.

You've been traveling a lot?

Four trips to Rome in the last three months?

I had meetings at the Vatican.

But each time you only spent a day in Rome and then the rest of the trip was

spent in Naples.

I have an ailing mother. I try to see her as much as I can.

Is there anything else I can help you with, Detective?

I should get back for evening mass.

No, I appreciate your time, Father.

I think we're good for now.

I'll show you out.

I knew him from back home, when he was simply Antonio de Luca,

the childhood friend of my brother.

As teenagers, they ran in the Camorra.

Until Antonio found God.

So you don't think he's here from Naples doing God's work?

Your brother Rocco's doing a life sentence in Naples.

If you're asking me, is Antonio here to be

his eyes and ears, I don't know.

But you suspect.

I suspect everyone.

You know how you feel.

Here.

Loaded it for you.

I can do that myself, right?

Oh, easy, gangster.

Baby steps.

Besides, it's just a quick smash and grab. You're not going to need it.

And don't shoot it like that.

It'll break your wrist.

Big knife for little Smitano.

Just do what I do and you'll be fine.

All right.

Just don't shoot me with that.

Big riff, big reward.

Muchachos, let's go show them who the fuck we are.

What are you doing?

I had to take a piss.

What, you trying to watch?

Oh, you like that, huh?

Is everyone good to go?

Get out of the fucking van!

Grab the truck!

I'm not going to hurt you. Get out of here. Go, go.

Rain

spray,

huh?

Some arsenal.

Yeah, the driver and the passenger look like they were the first to go down.

Ambush? Maybe.

This is the perfect street for it.

Just trying to see which one got to the other first.

Sarge?

It's one of the guys outside the brewery.

Yeah, we'll get him ID'd soon enough.

What do you got?

I'll have a burger, fries, and a soda.

Great.

Want me to take it?

Yep. I'll deal with this mess.

Eli, Eli.

Did you tell anyone about Isabel coming to our apartment?

Came up with my STL. Listen to me. What happened in our personal life does not

make it to work. Your boy is trying to secure a crime scene. Sarge, let me just

talk to him if you don't mind. I do mind. So does he.

Stabler, go down to 51st and direct traffic.

Richard? Yeah.

What you got?

One of Stabler's would -be assassins.

That's the same bike.

God damn it.

Another kid.

We thought it looked like Los Santos, the Camorra. Yeah, we were ambushed, but

was lucky to stay out of the worst of it.

There's something you should know. Okay.

Pietro Spezzano was there.

You mean Roman?

No, the kid.

You sure?

It was him.

He was scared out of his mind, but he was in on it.

Last night was a tip -off. It wasn't payback.

Osantas is still planning to hit back at them hard.

But I won't know how until it's too late. Exactly. So you were in this...

Elliot, I already told Sarge... I don't care.

After what happened last night, we're not taking any more chances.

Vargas says just to make sure to put it in a place that no one will find it.

Is he suggesting that I shove this?

He said you'd figure it out.

He didn't come home last night.

Sure, he's fine. He's probably just at the brewery helping Roman.

Nonna.

Isabella Tavisano, I need you to come with me.

What's going on?

What am I doing here? When was the last time you spoke to Pietro?

Pietro?

Has something happened?

Yeah, he's a suspect in a violent crime. I have an eyewitness that places him at

the scene, and right now there's an arrest warrant in process.

But you bring me here instead.

Yes.

Tell me who you are.

What do you mean, who am I? You know who I am. Then prove it to me. Because if

I'm right, Pietro's already been initiated.

He's not going to help me. He's going to protect his brother.

So I won't be able to convince him to save himself.

But you might.

You brought your brother into this fucking mess.

Do you have any idea who you are dealing with?

You know, the cops know about Father DeLuca. The man is a fool, and so are

I don't believe it. Jesus, Roman.

Jesus, you could have got yourself killed. Or Pietro, your sister.

You are to cut ties with these people.

You and your brother both.

It's not that easy. Oh, it is that easy.

Roman.

Is the only way to save this family everything I do is to protect our family

you're the one who threw it all away You took us from our home everything we

knew You lost the right to make decisions for us

It's my turn now

Rocco Sposano is still behind bars. And serving concurrently sentences.

Okay, can you get access to the visitor's log?

Yeah. Tide and State Police finally came through. Turns out Father DeLuca was on

their radar as a person of interest in the murder of a local politician.

Case went cold earlier this year.

Now we see why he transferred here.

Enough for the ADA.

I'll make the call.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Roman. I messed up.

No, you didn't mess up.

They just knew we were coming. It was total clusterfuck.

Yeah, but what about Sal?

Well, he understood the risks.

And they shot him. They shot him right in front of me, Roman.

Look, I don't know if I can do this.

Everything's just so... I know.

Just keep your head straight.

Everything will be okay.

Alright?

Yeah.

We honor the memory of our fallen friend, Jacob, Mateo, Tony,

and Salvatore, our loyal brothers.

Not

open,

Stabler.

A couple of your friends paid me a visit the other night.

You and I need to talk.

Nona told me what happened the other night.

I'm glad you're okay.

Oh, yeah?

All right, Roman, let's not bullshit each other, all right?

We know what's going on here.

Well, I know you threw my grandmother in the interrogation room after everything

she's done for you. How about what I did for you? You mean the part where you

made my family turn on each other?

Or when you took us away from our home? Well, I was thinking about the part

where I gave you a chance at a new life in America, and you fucking blew it. You

think you're some kind of savior, but you robbed my family of everything we

Hey, Sarge!

We got a problem.

Ray has activated the tracker.

I'll change it if it's on the move.

Where are they going?

Oh, shit.

So, how old were they?

The boys on that motorcycle that you sent to my house. They had to have been

young because they had me at point -blank range and they missed.

Yeah, you've got nothing.

If you did, you'd be here with a warrant instead of some bullshit allegations.

You know, Roman, I really wish I had more time.

To do what?

To reason with you.

Just got word that Los Santos is on the way to hit the brewery. Local patrol and

ESU are headed there now, but they're not going to make it in time.

Pietro! He was... He was going to... He was going to... Take him outside.

Sergeant, take him outside.
