Original subtitles

You know who I am?

You're going to be careful with the car.

You bought me a condo?

And this is just the beginning.

This is your world now.

You understand?

I used to go to this church.

My brother and I would steal quarters out of the collection plate.

You stick with me, and you'll own this whole street.

This whole neighbourhood.

It was a gang hit.

Three innocent people dead, six wounded.

Shooter turned himself in this morning.

I heard. Gangbanger, ran with the Lakeside Crew.

He confessed. So why we here?

We're going after the guns.

Khali: In the last two months, there have been three other shootings.

Rebecca: There's a new kind of weapon on the street.

SIG 552. Equipped with a mod called a 'lightning link'.

Pop it in and the rifle is fully automatic.

Anyone with a few thousand bucks has access to military-grade fire power.

Kill a dozen people per second from four blocks away.

Maria: Unreal.

Our job is to find out who's supplying these guns and stop them.

Go ahead.

Say hello to Kyle Davis. Goes by 'Cheese'.

He's a 19 year old soldier with the Lakeside Crew.

He copped to the condo shooting.

It was a hit on a rival gang, the Saints.

Detective: Who's Jimmy P?

James Porter.

The Saints' general.

Cheese: Him and his crew have been making a move on our turf. Wartime.

Detective: What about the gun?

What about it?

Detective: That's some serious hardware, where'd you pick it up?

Detective: Where'd you pick it up?

From Teddy.

You know the Samana?

Cheese: Teddy's the connect.

The Samana Supper Club. Theodore AKA Teddy O'Dell.

He used to be selling dope. Now he's selling guns.

John: He's in the right neighbourhood.

Teddy looks lonely.

We thought so too.

Alright? Maria, you're up.

You're going to work Teddy into a buy.

Something small, personal protection.

Then her friend John comes along,

looking for something a little more robust.

We do this right, we shut Teddy down,

cut off his supply, get these things off the streets.

Rebecca: Okay, let's start at the start.

What?

Hey.

I knew the victim. Heather Tibbs,

I grew up in that 'hood.

Her brother used to ride with the Lakeside Crew.

I'm thinking maybe I could reconnect with him,

maybe make a buy from that end.

John: Just like that?

If we dummy up convictions,

make Jesse look like he'd turned into a player while he was out west,

and now he's back in town.

You want to go back to your old neighbourhood?

They don't know I'm a cop. I've been like, four years.

Rebecca: You're sure of that?

How well did you know the brother?

Hypothetically speaking, I may have...

Not committed a crime because that would get you kicked off the unit.

Were you in a gang?

I may know someone who might have borrowed a car or two with him.

Give us a second.

A U.C. should never go into his real life on a case.

Did you read that in a manual?

You think Jesse's ready to take point on a play?

He's no going to learn to swim by standing in the shallow end.

I think it's worth a shot. We could play both angles.

If I approve this, then you're with him, every step of the way.

You're his training wheels.

I'll be his... what are those things kids use in a pool?

Floaties?

Yeah, I'll be like his floaties.

First sign of a problem, I pull him.

Floaties.

So if this guy Tibbs is such a good friend,

why can't you just call him?

I haven't seen him for a couple of years.

Tibbs doesn't like to be easy to find.

But I know where to look.

Alright.

Let's hear it again, from the top.

It's cool. Tibbs and I are friends,

I'm not going to...

Tibbs is a lieutenant with a well known street gang.

He's done 15 months for PFP coke,

assault, and possession of a prohibited weapon.

Does that sound friendly to you?

Sit down.

I take it slow.

Always keep my phone on.

Never lose my eyes...

What if he gets aggressive, starts asking questions?

Go with the flow.

No. You push back hard.

Jesse, this guy's going to be testing you.

The minute you start showing cracks, you're done.

Right. Get into his head.

This has gotta be the hardest part of the job.

Not even close.

C'mon.

Rebecca: This is Teddy, he supplied the gun.

Rebecca: OK, Teddy, let's find out what makes you tick.

You good to go?

Okay.

Rebecca: First step, you want to make an impression on Teddy. Make friends.

Then when you throw us the signal, we call your cell.

Be dramtic and make sure Teddy sees it.

Hello, Teddy.

You lost?

No, I'm just looking for someone.

Is that right? I'm Teddy.

This is my joint.

Well, Teddy, I need a drink.

So, if you want to impress me, start with a martini.

Come on. Right this way.

Voila.

You meeting someone?

A friend.

A friend.

Not a friend, friend.

Just someone who can get me something for the party, you know?

You like to party, huh?

Yo Tibbs, is that you?

Jay?

Where the hell did you come from?

I was gonna call, man, I heard about your sister.

Good to see you man, for real.

Heard you moved out West.

Yeah my mom caught me with an 8-ball and a nine.

Next thing I know I'm living on the coast,

in my broke ass uncle's basement.

She never wanted you in the game.

Game's still the game on the coast, man.

I heard the guy that killed Heather was from the block. Is that true?

Yeah.

Some kid chasing cred.

Only reason he's alive right now is 'cause he walked himself in.

I would've killed him, first chance I got.

Come on, this is the last place I should be.

Let's get out of here.

Guys, chill, I'll be back.

Well, I guess my friend's a no show.

No, no, no. Your money's no good here.

I'm going to tell you one good thing about having friends.

You can always make new ones.

If you really want, I can hook you up.

Well, my mother always told me never take candy from strangers.

Well then, you're going to have to get to know me better, huh?

Wow, all he's missing is a wagging tail.

There's the signal.

Excuse me.

Why are you calling me?

Yeah, I heard what you said.

Listen, I don't really give a....

Dont you dare swear to God.

I gotta go.

What can I do?

Are you okay?

Yeah, thanks for the drink.

Rebecca: Good. Let's see if Teddy takes the bait.

Jesse: Got your own entourage now, huh?

Crew's got reach now, clout.

Jesse: The old clique come up with you?

Doing time mostly. Or dropped out.

You remember Monk?

From way back? Southside.

He dummied that guy with a lead pipe or something,

Adam Williams, right?

Yeah. Monk. He's boss man now.

You know, I was actually thinking about getting back into the game myself.

Maybe you could hook me up with a little action?

Tibbs: So this is business.

No bro, I'm just...

Looking to get paid like everybody else.

So this isn't business, man.

This is you and me.

Tibbs: Look, the crew.

It's not up to me.

It's on Monk now.

He don't like new faces.

Boys told me you made a new friend.

Yeah, well your boys don't need to mind my business.

Well, they work for me, so everything's my business.

Hey, it's me. I'm sending you some photos.

Lakeside crew. See if you can I.D. anybody.

Hey come on, I'm Jay.

I've lived here since way back, you remember.

He was out West.

There.

John. It's Adam Williams a.k.a. Monk.

Leader of the Lakeside Crew with all the prerequisites:

attempted murder, trafficking. Do we have a problem?

Not yet. I'll let you know.

I heard you're the big boss man now, congrats.

Monk: How long you been back?

Jesse: Couple months.

So you get back a couple months, and you're only now making your way back to the 'hood?

Where I'm from, when people have a problem they deal with it.

They don't hide in their rides like a little bitch.

Monk: Tibbs, where'd you find this kid?

I gotta get going...

Hold up, hold up, cowboy.

Monk: You're not going anywhere.

John: Requiring backup, Melbourne and Cowan. Possible 10-33.

Monk: You can't just walk away, my friend.

Down!

Rebecca: Yes sir, I had an officer at the scene, but he didn't know the shooting ...

That's right, it wasn't connected.

I hear that, but let me...

Let me say this.

If my guys weren't there, then Homicide would have two more bodies on their case board.

I will. Yes, sir.

I'm telling people we don't have a problem.

Am I lying?

I hope not, 'cause you're a terrible liar.

We can't control every situation Rebecca, you know that.

Not exactly the vote of confidence I was looking for.

Command is all over me.

Did Jesse's behaviour contribute to the shooting or not?

Jesse saved the lifes of a General and a Lieutenant.

I'll bet you a paycheque he beats Maria to a buy.

You're chalking it up as a win?

Yeah, I'm chalking it up as a win.

Rebecca: No charges have been laid but Guns and Gangs likes

The Saints for the drive-by.

Rival gang, retaliation on the Lakeside Crew

for the condo shooting. And so it goes.

The weapon was an assault rifle. The same model as before.

So Teddy's supplying guns to both sides. That's bound to end well.

John: How are we doing with that?

Daniel: We can pull the trigger anytime.

John: What's the approach?

He likes wounded birds. Makes him feel powerful.

I have a violent ex named Daniel, keeps stalking me.

John: And you need protection. That's good, that'll work.

John: And what about Jesse?

You made points with the Lakeside crew.

I saved their lives.

Think you can leverage that?

Leverage like...

Like buying a gun.

Are you kidding me? Sure I can.

Tibbs: Looking over my shoulder everytime I'm outside.

Everything cool with Monk?

Why did you push him like that?

Jesse: Somebody pushes me, I push back, you know that.

Jesse: Besides he would've got his ass shot if I wasn't there.

I don't know anymore, man. Getting shot at in the middle of the street.

This whole thing with Heather, my sister man.

You would have been better staying out West.

Do what?

Go legit?

Get a job?

Something better than this.

So what

Let the Saints take our block? Our 'hood?

"Our" 'hood?

Sorry, it's your 'hood, right?

'Cuz in the 'hood I grew up in we wouldn't just lay down, roll over.

You think this is just talk?

Yeah, what are you going to do about it?

Hook me up and I'll show you.

I ain't talking about a little deuce deuce either.

I mean real hardware.

Or you can just run away.

Is that what you wanna do? Run?

I'll make a call.

Alright.

Maria: Danny and I are set up at the back of the club,

That's the entrance Teddy uses. We're good to go.

You ready?

What's wrong?

I don't like this play, never feels right, okay.

Teddy needs to see you as a bully.

Otherwise he'd never believe it.

What's that suppose to mean? Believe what?

You're gonna make me say it?

Believe what Maria?

When was the last time you saw a nine with a seven?

WOW.

You're really going to call me a seven?

I'm a minimum 8. On a bad day.

Daniel: Are you ready?

Hey, where were you last night.

Maria: Get your hands off me!

Hey who the hell are you man?

Who is this? Is this why you're here all dressed up.

Walk off. This is my place.

Yo bro, walk man. Get out of here.

What what what?

We're not done you understand me?

When I call you, you answer the damn phone!

I'm not playing with you!

You alright?

Daniel: Answer the phone!

Come on girl.

Look.

I can help you. If you need some help.

But you're going to have to talk to me.

My ex.

We're trying to work things out but...

I kicked him out.

Now he keeps driving by my place, over and over.

I changed the locks...

He's just not the kind of person you want to mess with.

He knows people.

I know people too.

Yeah?

Like what kind of people?

Because I need protection, Teddy.

Maybe something small that will fit in my purse.

You know those kind of people?

You know what...

it's okay you said you wanted to help, forget it.

Hey stop.

Okay.

I'll see what I can do, okay?

That's it, we got him on the hook.

We just havee to reel him in.

Hey.

Maria's back at base.

Teddy's making a call.

Okay good.

Daniel: How's the kid doing?

Well we're about to find out.

What's up?

Alright, get in.

Daniel: Don't get in the car, Jesse.

Get in!

Think you'd be happy to see the guy who saved your ass.

Yeah, that was something...

You're full of surprises.

Almost too good to be true.

I searched you out, cowboy.

Looks like you got into some trouble out West.

Nothing you need to worry about.

Nothing I'm gonna be talking about, either, not in this car.

What? You never heard of 5-0 dropping a wire in a car?

Man, you know a lot about cops, huh?

Where we rolling to?

Don't worry about it.

Monk: Alright, you know how it is, player.

You want to ride with us, I gotta know you're solid.

What do you mean?

You see that door over there?

Saints' stash house.

They're in there right now.

They got a big bag of cash and they're coming out any second.

You want me to rob them?

Get their money. Whatever it takes.

How many guys?

Monk: One, maybe two.

Come on, Jesse, get out of there.

He will.

Monk: Why, is there a problem?

Yo, Monk are you sure you wanna do this?

You're going to start a war.

The war's already here.

We're just hitting back.

Roll D.A.S. and E.T.F. to my location.

Have them stand by and keep it quiet.

So, what's it going to be, rook?

Are we going to do this or what?

Or are you just going to stand there and piss your pants?

Give it to me.

Awww, he's going for it.

Don't hurt yourself.

Daniel: Are you seeing this?

Forget what I said. I need ETF now, right now.

Drop the money!

Drop it! Do it!

Don't be stupid.

What the hell is he doing?

Drop the money!

Alright.

John: I'm going to kill that kid.

Rebecca, take it easy!

Jesse controlled a volatile situation

he kept everybody safe, he had no idea...

Save it. Just... shut up.

I'm not going to report this. We're keeping it to ourselves.

Great idea.

It has nothing to do with you, or Jesse.

We're staring down the barrel of a gang war.

Rebecca: They'll shut us down.

John: What about the kid?

Rebecca: Is that even a question?

Don't even start, you're out, you're off the case.

So all that stuff about making mistakes was just talk?

Hey...

I'm not one of your buddies in the hood.

I shot the wall. I had no choice.

You had like fifteen other choices.

You could have told them you'll be a look out,

that you're on parole, tell them you saw a cop.

Or better yet, just walk away.

All I could think about was how it would get me in tight with Monk.

And now you are, congratulations.

But you crossed the line, Jesse.

You don't take that kind of risk,ever.

You do.

Excuse me?

You take that kind of risk.

This must be the hardest part of the job; right here.

Go home get some sleep. You look like hell.

There's a heavy bag in the gym.

Stupid door won't open.

Just don't force it.

Look, I heard what happened.

I had it.

Couple more days and I would've had that whole case.

I'm wired, how am I supposed to sleep?

You wanna go get something to eat or something?

Hmmm no.

I mean yeah, but I've got to...

You gotta work, right.

Daniel: That's the alley behind the Samana.

Teddy comes out the back, meets with a low level banger,

buys Maria a gun.

In broad daylight, right outside the club.

Teddy's supposed to be a big supplier selling assault rifles,

but he's buying a cap gun from a kid on the corner.

John: That's not our guy. What's the name of the condo shooter?

Khali: Kyle Davis.

He's the one who gave up Teddy as the supplier.

Why would he lie?

How quickly can we get him over here?

Rebecca: Hey, Kyle.

It's Cheese.

On the street. In here it's Kyle.

The lighting's a little much in here isn't it.

They keep 'em that way to intimidate you.

Rebecca: I'm also supposed to talk down to you.

Like you're a kid.

I'm going to skip that part too.

Look, lady, I already talked to the other police.

I confessed.

I know, Kyle.

You lied.

Teddy doesn't move that kind of hardware.

So where'd you get the rifle? Someone on your crew?

See, the thing is,

That deal you made on the murders,

that's all gone now.

Lying to us, it changes the whole thing.

Screw you.

Feels good to say that.

Today, sitting here, across from me.

It's easy.

What about in twenty years, Kyle? Minimum.

You haven't even been alive that long.

Rebecca: Who's bringing in the guns, Kyle?

Rebecca: Who's the real connect?

Come on buddy. Give us a name.

Why are you so scared?

I'm not scared of nothing.

Something else is going on.

There you go.

You know, most guys who murder a woman can't stand the sight of what they've done.

But you didn't even blink.

You didn't shoot anyone, did you Kyle?

A lot of guys have sat in that chair across from me, Kyle.

You're the only one who's fought to convince me that he's guilty.

Who are you protecting?

You aren't a killer, Kyle.

But if you don't talk then more people will die.

Give me the name.

Kyle.

He said my family...

Please, he said...

We can protect your family. And you.

Kyle.

Tell me what happened.

He said he'd get me a lawyer,

that I'd only do a few years.

Offered me money.

Said or else he'd come after my brother,

my little sister.

What about the shooter?

Monk.

Monk?

I drove him to that party.

Then he tells me to take a walk.

Next thing I know all those people are dead.

My picture's on the news.

Monk tells me I gotta cop to it.

but I didn't,

I didn't kill those people.

You did good, Kyle.

It's going to be okay.

Khali: Homicide called like seven times.

They want Kyle back.

Rebecca: Keep stalling. We need to keep him here.

Maria: You didn't tell them?

Best case scenario, he'll be an unreliable witness at Monk's trial.

That kid won't get the chance to testify.

Monk will kill him, the second he touches road, guaranteed.

So it's up to us get this guy. How do we do it?

John: We use Jesse. He breaks cover and admits he's a cop.

It's the only way it's gonna happen fast.

Jesse gets Tibbs onside, he intros me as a buyer.

You make a deal with Monk... and we take him down.

What about the murder?

We get Monk on the guns, Homicide will have some leverage.

They always do a good job when we tell them who did it.

Let's go.

John.

If I bring Jesse in, this has to work.

And like I said, if you want guarantees then you're in the wrong unit.

My gut says we're good.

Your gut. That's what we're going on.

I have never, in all my years, seen the kind of raw talent that kid has.

I wouldn't put myself in the play if I didn't believe he could do it.

You okay?

Yeah. Excited, to be back on the case.

Daniel's going to cover you the whole way.

Khali's got ears, I got eyes.

If you don't see me, that means I'm right behind you, okay?

Are you listening to me?

Sorry. Just trying to wrap my head around this.

Just how Tibbs is going to react.

Make sure he isn't strapped before you make your move.

Cause if he is?

Just walk away. Exactly.

Hey, look at me.

You've got nothing to prove here, alright.

We can call this thing off if you want to.

He told me he wants out.

He wants to get out of this life.

Maybe this is how he does it.

Maybe so. I want you to know the whole team is behind you on this.

Trust your instinct. If anything feels off...

Target coming in.

Hey.

Breathe.

You're going to be okay.

Tibbs: Got the message, man.

What's the problem?

Tibbs. I'm a cop.

Come on, man. I ain't got time for this.

About a year now.

Take it easy.

Let go!

Relax, relax.

Get off!

So, what, you're gonna arrest me now?

All this, my sister...

You just using me. Your own family?

Stab me in the back?

Monk did.

That kid didn't kill Heather.

Just keep on lying, man.

Monk did it.

Kyle drove him up to the party but that was it.

Monk threatened his family. He made him take the fall.

Look, man, I lied okay.

I get it.

But come on man, this is still you and me.

I would never lie about Heather, okay.

It was Monk.

I told her, man.

I told her, damn it.

Tell me.

She was with Jimmy P, man.

The Saints.

She was sleeping with the damn enemy.

I'm going to take care of Monk myself.

You can't.

They'll arrest you. Right here.

Look maybe I can see about getting you a deal or something.

Get you out of all this. The crew, this life.

Make a new start for you.

You're here to save me?

You think I wanted to do this?

You're all I got.

You don't help me, then Monk walks.

Rebecca: John, they're on their way.

John: I'm ready. Let's buy some guns.

Rebecca: You sure about this? Tibbs is up for it?

John: Jesse's built up a trust with this guy. We're good.

Rebecca: I hope you're right.

Two minutes out.

John: Maria, Daniel, you got eyes?

Maria: Yeah, we're good. We got a clear view.

Black SUV approaching. We're on.

Hey.

This is your guy?

Yeah. I can vouch for him.

He's looking to buy, alright.

Alright, check him.

Come on man, he's not going to be packing.

Really gonna make me do it?

What's the matter with you?

It's alright man. These days you can't be too careful, right.

I heard you're in a tight spot.

Yeah, my guy did a cut and run. Left a lot of my guys waiting.

Heard you're chasing some serious numbers.

If the price is right. I do a lot of business.

Tibbs said me you might be able to help me out.

Monk: Yeah maybe.

That's nice.

John: My guy can only get AK's mostly used.

That's really nice.

We cool?

Yeah, let's just do this.

Tibbs: Come on.

Why we wasting time? Let's get this done.

Hold on a second here, alright.

So how soon can you deliver?

What's going on? You good?

I'm fine. Let's just do this.

Why are you wasting time, let's go.

We got a deal?

No I don't think so.

Let's pack it up.

You're sure?

Positive.

Alright, you're the boss.

Monk!

This isn't over.

Tibbs: You're not going anywhere.

What the hell are you doing? Is this a set up?

Damnit.

Tibbs, put the gun down.

How did you kill her?

What are you talking about?

Rebecca, talk to me.

Stay where you are, wait for my order.

We get in there now, it's just going to escalate.

Khali: 10-33, officer in danger, alleyway at Lansdowne and Queen.

Why'd you kill her?

Calm down, alright.

I know about Cheese, you tell me right now.

Why did you kill Heather?

You ain't thinking, man. You shoot me, then what?

You want to be mad at somebody? Be mad at yourself.

I warned you. I told you, get Heather in line.

Tibbs!

Put the gun down, man.

I did what I had to for the crew.

I did it for you!

For me!

Yeah for you!

Tibbs!

Put the gun down, Tibbs. This guy's not worth it.

You don't want to do this, just put it down.

No!

John: You gonna share one of those?

John: So we got Monk cold on trafficking the guns, murder charge might be tricky.

John: We'll give it our best shot.

How'd it go at S.I.U?

It was fine, I'm all cleared.

He was sitting there telling me he wanted to get out,

you know? What if...

What if you grew up to be a dealer and he grew up to be a cop?

Something was wrong. I could just feel it.

You can't save a man from himself, Jesse.

That's not on you.

So I, what Learn from it?

It wasn't a mistake.

This is the hard part.

What?

When the job is over, every case, it sticks with you.

And it stacks up. And you gotta learn to deal with it.

I think I'm going to go get drunk now.

Hey what the hell are you doing?

What happened?

I... I don't know.

Are you okay?

No.

I don't know where else to go.

Come on in.
