Wassup, girl?

You know I've been tryin' to holla at you.

Wassup? Boy, please.

You know you like my play-cousin.

Look what I'm sayin' though. I'm all right now. Wassup though?

Oh, it's not gonna happen.

Huh? No.

What's going on?

Uh-uh, I'm not even tryin' to hear you. I don't think so.

Ah, man, come on. You know I need to get that whiskey.

You know what I'm sayin'?

They say that once a dog gets the taste of blood in his mouth,

he's never the same.

He'll always want to taste it again, and again.

Some people are just like dogs.

They fiend for that moment.

They can taste it.

Just one more time.

Damnit, I'm late again.

Have you ever been on time?

Yeah, once. I forgot it was daylight savings.

Well that explains it. You want coffee?

Yeah, thanks.

Baby, I haven't been helping myself at all in this situation.

I've been screwing up big time with the captain.

He's been on my ass lately.

Well, you're just making it easier for him.

Yeah, tell me about it.

Sweetie, I have a list of things I need for you to do today.

You gotta be kidding me, Nikki.

I got so much shit to do already.

No, I'm not. And I need you to do it, and do it the way I want

you to, or I'll bug you until you get it done.

All right, I'll see what I can do.

Shit, it's Rita.

Rita? Why can't you be professional

and call her Detective Bathgate?

Oh, God. Huh?

Why?

Why do you have to start this shit with me again?

What do you mean "don't start again?" Why is she calling you?

Why does she constantly call you?

Is she your partner, or your lover?

'Cause last I checked, you were sleeping with me.

Why do you constantly do this shit every fucking morning?

Over and over.

God, don't I have enough stress as it is? God damn, Nikki!

Listen to me.

You are still a married man.

And I don't care what's going on.

Don't make me kill you and that bitch.

Relax. Yeah.

You're not in the courtroom yet.

You know, my mom told me never to marry a lawyer.

And?

I never listen to anybody. You're right.

You never listen to... Just drop it, okay?

No, I'm not. Okay, dropped. It's dropped.

But when I cut off your penis, and flush it down the toilet, don't say I didn't warn you.

Nikki, you're fucking crazy. No, I'm not crazy.

Anyway, what time is it? You're late. Give me a kiss.

Bye.

Man, I tell you,

can't no po boy sandwich even come close

to a shrimp po boy from New Orleans.

Look at that.

Mmm-mmm-mmm.

I done been all over the whole, wide world, you hear me?

And nobody... nobody shrimp taste like our shrimp down here.

Here... taste that.

Put it on. Taste it.

See? I told you.

Most people can't even get the seasonings right.

It's subtle. It's very subtle.

Fuck.

I was in Vietnam.

People were shooting at me.

People were dying all around me.

You know the one thing that kept me going?

The one thing that stayed on my mind?

Was getting back to New Orleans to eat mea big 'ole shrimp po boy.

Ain't that somethin'?

You are way too into food, Chief.

Way too into food.

Mmm.

Come on. It's time.

Mmm-mmm.

You stay right there.

Back in the Nam,

they had coffee that tasted like it was made out of fox turds.

Man, what I would have gave for some Chickery back then.

Hey guys, settle down. Settle down.

The mayor has been getting a lot of flack over the recent killings.

And the freakin' reporters are crawling all over the place.

"I don't want to see any of you on the Eyewitness News spill in" your guts,

and throwing more gas on the fire, so refer everything to the Public Information Officer.

Chief.

The mayor's office has asked for assistance from the FBI.

This is Special Agent Crockett and Manning.

Hey, hey, hey. Hey, hey, hey, calm down, calm down.

My name is Special Agent Crockett.

This is Special Agent Manning and Special Agent Sax.

The federal government has been very interested in what's going on down here in New Orleans.

We have been conducting our own investigation prior to the mayor's request for assistance.

Myself and Manning have been reviewing your actions and Special Agent Sax

has been our man on the street gathering intel.

Question.

So what are we supposed to do?

We don't have enough manpower as it is,

even if we do know where the next move is going down.

The agency along with the mayor's office is attempting to address this.

Mmm.

So let me guess.

You and your guys are gonna come in and take over.

Considering N.O.P.D. has dropped the ball on this one,

looks like we'll take over. Hey, hey, hey.

Back down, back down, both of ya.

Sit down. Chief, this is bullshit.

Sit down.

This meeting is about getting information to you guys out on the streets.

To keep you in the loop.

This is for your own safety.

Considering we'll be around for a while, I suggest you stay out of my way.

You do this every time.

I know. I don't want to do this, though.

We'll check, see if there's taxes, like always, okay?

Don't worry about this. Don't worry about this.

So what do you think happened at the meeting?

I don't know, but it's gotta be big if the FEDS are involved.

No kidding.

Hold on a sec.

Coulon.

Yeah.

What's the location?

Got it. Rita, we gotta go.

What do we got? Take a guess.

Homicide?

Agent Sax, hey, what's the deal?

You guys taking over?

Well, the mayor and his entourage are gonna talk to you about that.

What do we have here?

God.

It's Slinky.

This is not gonna go over well. This guy was high up.

One of Carmello's boys.

Excuse me, Detective. Anonymous 911 call came in reporting the shooting.

Let me guess, no one saw anything.

Excuse me, Detective. Is there anything else you'd like me to take pictures of?

Yeah, shoot the crowd, please.

Look at them. They're just kids.

There's a dead body right in front of them and it's like nothing ever happened.

Another day in the hood.

All right people, I'm Detective Bathgate.

I need to know if anyone saw anything, anything at all.

A suspicious person, or car... Anything.

We didn't see nothin'.

All right, well if anyone did see anything, please speak up.

We need all the information we can get here.

We gotta catch this guy.

Yeah, right. I ain't tellin' you nothin'.

You don't have to be scared. We're here to protect you.

Here's my card.

If you remember anything, call me.

Anything at all.

Hey, Billy Blue. Wait up.

What? Now what? Now what?

What you got on you?

Ain't got nothin'.Ain't got nothin'.

You know the drill. You could do it the easy way or the hard way.

Yo, man, I ain't got... Your choice.

I ain't got shit.

What was that over there? That Tonk's move?

Man, I'm just doin' a hustlin' for him, man, for lunch money, man.

I only met Tonk once in my life, playing ball, and that's it.

I could kill you right now.

You tell me. Uh...

All right, all I know, something's supposed to hit the streets...

That's bullshit, dude.

There's a dead body over there.

All right, all right, Pee Wee... Pee Wee made the hit.

Oh, Pee Wee made the hit.

All right, good job, asshole. Get the fuck out of here.

Let's go get Pee Wee.

Officer, you hear anything, call me.

Lock it down.

Hey, man.

I need to holla.

All right, I'll do it in a second, man. I'm trying to finish

listening to the mix. This shit is tight.

You have no idea, nigga.

Fans think they gonna snatch me out the air room, you heard me?

I'm 'bout to flip this dope money to rap money,

know what I'm talkin' about? I know that's right.

Let's go talk outside.

Holla at ya boy, Pee Wee.

Shit, not now. That boy is done.

So anybody saw you?

Yeah, a chick, but I think she know better.

And you let this chick walk away?

What, you getting sloppy on me, Pee Wee?

Man, relax, man. Shit ain't gonna come back.

Trust me. Nobody else was out there.

Nigga, I usually give you a hundred...

I'm gonna give you fifty for the sloppy work. Man, come on, Tonk.

Nigga, what you think though? We at war right now with these niggas, man.

And you gonna give me sloppy work like that?

What, you tryin' to get us caught?

Man, you want me to go get the chick?

What you think, nigga? She done out there runnin' her mouth right now, Pee Wee.

Give me two days. Imma handle it.

Two days, nigga? Go get that broad right now.

Man, imma handle it. Go get her right now, Pee Wee!

Man, fuck!

Money must turn you on, huh?

Of course.

Too bad it's mine.

Damn, nigga. The fuck you doin' bustin' up in here like that?

I almost shot you.

Coulda had my dick hangin' out or something.

Man, why you around here worryin' about your dick, man? Someone's gotta work, nigga.

Fuck all that, man. I gotta holla at you, man.

We got a problem. For real.

Hold on to this.

Fuck is it now?

Man, niggas hit us again.

This morning, bro, up on top of Toulouse, nigga shot Slinky

like two times in his chest, man.

This nigga dead, man.

You holla at his momma?

I mean, I tried, man, you know?

Shit, she dealin' straight with the cops though, dog.

Talkin' 'bout she don't want us to hurt her son no more.

Fuck, man!

Put this in the mailbox.

Man, fuck that money, man!

We losin' people out here in these streets, man!

You around here fuckin' with these hoes, bro.

You gotta get your mind on the business, nigga.

You know who did it?

Nah, I don't know yet, man.

See, this is what I'm talkin' about, nigga!

You gotta keep yo ear to the streets.

When I find out who did this shit,

I'm gonna start torturing motherfuckers.

Burnin' motherfuckers alive and shit.

Check yourself talk, man.

That's irrational thinking, my nigga, you feel me?

Don't come at me with this Dr. Phil self-help shit, nigga.

We in the streets.

Man...

you gotta sharpen the saw, man.

You gotta change your state and get balanced, baby.

That's the only way you're gonna make the right decisions, man.

Think about it, dog.

At the end of the day, this is a business.

Like any other business, we gotta make profit.

Payin' for funerals, losin' territory...

that ain't profit.

It's not!

On top of that, if the Dominican finds out

we ain't even tryin' to make peace, he gonna cut our fuckin' supply.

Then what?

Then we gonna be in a drought, you understand?

Then people gonna really start gettin' killed around here, man.

I'm starting to think you ain't built for this shit.

Hey, you're the boss, man.

You the boss, baby. I said what I had to say, man.

Just remember who took that fuckin' bullet in the back for you, nigga.

Now you gonna throw that shit in my face, again? Yeah.

All the shit I did for your sorry ass.

This motherfucker.

You need to find out who did this!

All right.

All right!

You want some pink lemonade? What's up, man?

Let me get a pink lemonade for her.

What's happenin', nigga?

Now, listen to me, girl, I want you to be careful, okay?

I don't want you gettin' none of this on your shirt, all right?

Man, I can't find that bitch nowhere, Tonk.

I've been looking for her all fucking night.

Man, you don't see my baby standing right here?

Man, watch your mouth, nigga. Yo, my bad.

Baby, listen, be careful, all right?

I don't want you to get this on your shirt.

I don't want to have to be fussin' with your momma tonight, all right?

You see my baby, Pee Wee?

Love her to death, dog.

I mean, I can't believe she's growing this fast.

Her mama can't keep up with her, you heard me?

She's the reason I'm still in these street hustlin', dog. That's real.

And no matter what, she gonna always be able to count on daddy.

You know what I'm talkin' about? I know that's right.

All right. Pee Wee...

we've been friends since the fourth grade, baby.

I feel like I can trust you, but right now, you dropped the ball, dog.

Come on, Tonk.

After all that stuff I did for you?

After all the stuff you done for me?

Nigga you got 24 hours to go find that broad, understand?

Or me and you gonna have problems.

Why it gotta be like that, Tonk?

Why it gotta be like that?

Baby, baby.

Daddy wants you to go stand right over there.

Go ahead now.

Why it gotta be like that?

Nigga, you ain't just messin' up your own life. You jeopardizing mine,

and jeopardizing hers. I can't let you do that.

You got 24 hours, Pee Wee, to get to that broad's house and handle yo business,

or we got problems, you got me? I got you.

Y'all need to watch this nigga, man.

Good to see you, Mr. Mayor.

Councilman.

Councilwoman.

Little early for lunch, huh, Chief?

Never too early when your stomach tells you it's time.

Now what's so goddamn important that a man can't finish his shrimp po boy sandwich?

Well, Chief, I'm sure you're aware that as an assistant U.S. Attorney,

my responsibility is first and foremost the U.S. government, correct?

These grilled tomatoes are so fresh.

Do you want a piece?

Listen, Newsome, I normally like to keep my interaction with you down to one minute.

I'll tell it to you straight. I've already had this discussion with Mayor Padial.

The killings are making the news.

All of the national outlets are now doing stories.

This has got to stop.

I'm getting pressured from the U.S. Attorney,

who's getting his ass chewed out by the Congressman that put him there,

who's getting his ass chewed out by the businesses that put him there.

This isn't good.

Chief, this isn't good for you.

Shit flows downhill, and you're standing in a ditch.

Chief, we've had this discussion.

This city's on pace to be the murder capital of the United States.

That means tourists won't come here because they are scared,

and that means no revenue.

The seasoning on these things,

it's gotta be Zatarain's.

You know I can taste the difference.

But the real ongoing issue here is the drug wars.

Um, you know, these two guys are responsible

for 80% of the all the killings that happen in New Orleans' metropolitan area.

On the left is Carmello Williams.

On the right is Richard "Tonk" Anderson.

Now, the Mexicans, the Russians,

they're bringing the stuff in here.

These are the guys that are bringing it to the ghetto.

These are the guys that are distributing it all out.

But they also have a supplier.

His name is Richard Tobias, or aka The Dominican.

Now, this guy's a heavyweight in South America and I believe he's supplying both of them,

but he's also got an unknown source that he gets it from.

Who?

They call him The Dog. Um, we have nothing on him.

No pictures, no info, no nothin'.

This guy is making ten million dollars a month

right under our damn noses.

Unbelievable.

But the real deal with the killings between these two guys is about drug money and turf.

You don't want some of these fries?

Look, y'all had Tonk in on a murder rap because some 'ole' botched police work.

Y'all screwed up and let him slip.

The FEDS won't let him slip.

What happened?

Witnesses disappeared.

Look, it happens sometimes. You DEA punks wouldn't have done any better.

You can go to hell.

The FEDS will come in and we get to clean it up. Don't worry about it.

Look, I've already spent two extra minutes on this.

Mayor Padial, you get me some more men on the streets.

Special Agent Sax, you work with your little friends and you get me a conviction.

Not a parking ticket. I want a felony conviction.

I'm gonna ride Tonk and Carmello's asses all the way to the judge's seat.

If you gentlemen will excuse me, I have real work to do.

This department is a joke. Y'all are a goddamn joke.

We are doing our best to save lives... Can one of you go out there

and get me some chips from the vending machine?

Mr. Mayor, with all due respect, your team's like a... the bad news bears.

We need to put a stop to this in this city.

It's hurting tourism, it's hurting businesses.

You need to put a stop to it. If you're not, I will.

And I'll do it the Irish way.

You dad ran this city real good, and you ain't nothin', nothin' like your daddy.

God rest his soul.

Get out of my face. Come on. Let's go.

You think I like sitting there lookin' like a fool?

Huh?

You bring these two men in with a solid case against them. This killing stops now.

Just three days ago, university researchers,

in cooperation with law enforcement, fired weapons with blanks.

In fact, researchers fired a total 700 rounds in a seven square mile area

dubbed law enforcement... "The Hot Zone."

Amazingly, there were no calls to 911 reporting shots fired or any other incidents.

New Orleans residents are reluctant to come forward as witnesses, fearing retaliation.

And experts say that is one of several reasons why homicides are on the rise in The Big Easy

at a time when other cities are seeing their murder rate plummet

at levels not seen in decades.

I'm here with a New Orleans resident.

How do you feel about those murders?

Well, my heart goes out to the police officers.

They're fighting public apathy, racial division, and this dysfunctional court system.

They work their hearts out and nothing ever happens.

No one goes to jail for murder.

In fact, one out of four people arrested in this city

for murder are eventually convicted.

That number may come as a shock to many,

but events of the past month have opened the eyes of many locals.

Residents in this city are even calling this rash of recent homicides

"The Bloody May Murders."

Reporting for channel 13,

I'm Jennifer Fowler on the beat.

You gonna answer that?

I don't feel like ruining my day already.

She don't like your job, huh?

Me?

The job.

Especially the job though.

So why do you do it?

This is my neighborhood. I grew up here.

I remember when I was little, all I ever wanted

was some Dr. J sneakers. Remember that shit?

No.

I can remember plain as day.

I wanted some Dr. J sneakers so bad.

I mean, Dr. J...

That was the man back then.

$40... That was a lot of money for a pair of sneakers.

And you know my mom. She had four kids and all.

So I... I went up to Sol.

He was Oscar Gayle's right-hand man.

Oscar Gayle was the biggest drug dealer in the hood at the time.

I asked him... asked him if I could sell some weed for him.

He brought me over to Oscar Gayle.

But, now, this brother was smooth.

He was decked out in the finest gear from head to toe.

He was a man. There was no question.

He told me that he'd seen me playing ball.

Said I was pretty good.

He told me under no circumstances was I to sell drugs.

He told me that I had a way out of here.

And that was sports.

He said for every touchdown I made in the upcoming season he would give me ten dollars.

And get this...

he pops the trunk, hands me a fresh, brand new pair

of Dr. J sneakers.

That was a great day.

And, uh, I guess that's why I stuck around.

So, what happened?

Went all the way. State Championship.

You still have the sneakers?

Yeah, I still got 'em.

Over by my Mom's house.

What happened to Oscar Gayle?

Homeboy died less than ten years later.

He was 34. Hmm.

Hey, there's our boy Pee Wee.

See where he's going.

Girl.

You do not want to get caught up in that.

Slink didn't do nothin'.

Maybe not right then, but he done something though.

Slinky is with that boy Carmello, and they both crazy.

Carmello isn't that bad, plus he wants to help me.

He's kinda cute. Mirie!

It don't take a genius to figure out why we do this shit.

Ain't the money. Ain't the bitches.

It's the rush.

Life.

The feeling you get when you look death in the face everyday,

and laugh.

The feeling you get when you can look at death and say

"I ain't scared! I ain't scared, motherfucker! Come with it!"

In the meantime, we're gonna eat on the streets.

So you sure he looks like that? I will never forget his face.

Sound like Pee Wee. Yeah it does sound like his bitch ass.

So let me get this straight. He walked up to Slinky,

and then what happened?

And the he just shot him in his chest.

Fuck. We gonna get this shit straightened.

Mo, take her to the safe house on Canal Street.

You'll be all right there.

But wait, I, um... I have some things I need to do.

I need to go home.

You better make it quick, baby.

How many niggas we got in here?

Shit, we got the whole clique, homie.

Why, man? What up?

I know who killed Slinky.

Who?

Bitch ass nigga Pee Wee.

So you know Tonk had something to do with that shit, man.

What you gonna do?

What we gotta do.

You see the paper, Chief?

Another killing in the B.W. Cooper.

The fuck is going on?

I want some heads to fly, do you understand me?

Can't you see I'm trying to eat here?

Look, asshole, your one minute's almost up.

I'm giving up ten extra DEA agents you nitwit.

I want at least ten cases on my desk in two weeks.

We need convictions, do you understand me?

Asshole?

Nitwit?

Get out of my office so I can eat in peace.

Little Lady, you can't tell me how to run my department.

Now you just carry your cute, little ass on out of her before I...

get indigestion.

Ten convictions. Or I will make sure Mayor Padial

calls for your resignation.

That's it.

I can sure eat me some of that.

Look at that little shit.

So much for second chances, huh?

Man, I tell you something, if I see him out here again,

I'll bust his ass.

What Nikki? Hey you.

How's the world's best husband? I was just calling to check in.

Isn't that sweet? Aww, isn't that sweet? Goo goo goo goo.

Are you with her?

She's my partner so the answer be "yeah."

Well you tell herl ain't no fool.

You tell her just like that.

You tell her to quit playin' on the phone. Relax, okay?

Relax?

Who are you talking to? Is that Rita?

Is that how you talk to her, all sweet and shit?

Oh, no! Uh-uh!

You have her clean your dirty draws. I hate you.

It's like crazy.

She can't get past the fact that I work with a beautiful woman.

Well, Coulon.

You know I'm not used to comments like that.

Bullshit, you know what you look like.

Man, I'm not a girly-girl.

What the hell is a girly-girl? You know, a girly-girl.

I don't like girl stuff.

I don't like dolls and shoe shopping.

Freakin' tea and shit.

I like going to the shooting range.

Watching football.

I just don't really like girl stuff.

I don't like girl stuff.

Well, you like men, don't you?

What do you think?

Well that's girl shit.

Why are you so concerned about whether or not I like men anyway?

I'm just askin'.

Oh.

Well, strange question for a married man.

What if I said I like both?

Like I said, I'm just asking, but thank you

for the mental picture.

You're welcome.

You sure you just want a mental picture?

Quit playin'.

Here we go.

Which one we gonna take?

The big fish... Pee Wee.

Ain't playin' no fuckin' game!

We got this shit, man!

Yeah.

Yeah.

I got you.

Just got off the phone with Tonk, man.

Slinky funeral down there today.

They want y'all to handle that, man.

Lay 'em down. You got that, man.

Everybody. All right.

Everybody.

Man, let's get these niggas!

Well, well, well, what the fuck do we have here?

Stupid motherfuckers. You can't even play together.

Fuckin' stealin' each others shit.

Hittin' each other on the fuckin' head with it.

Wake me up... fuckin' come over here for this dumb shit.

You know what happens when they get me up?

Do you fuckin' know what happens?

One of you motherfuckers are going to jail.

Who's it gonna be?

Who wants to go to fuckin' jail?

I ain't talkin' about no parish prison bullshit.

State penitentiary.

Talkin' about federal.

Lock you down for 20 years. You'll be jerkin' off next time you see fuckin' sunlight.

You'll be so far away your momma can't even afford the gas to see your dumb-ass.

Y'all wanna kill each other?

Fuckin' kill each other! I don't give a shit.

You're doing me a favor. I don't give a fuck. Kill him.

I don't look at it as the murder rates going up.

It's the fucking community service. You're doing me a favor.

You're doing the whole fucking world a favor.

I'll give you the gun.

Take this stupid son of a bitch to jail.

He probably got dope on 'em, and probably got a bar or some shit.

Get 'em the fuck out of here.

God damn I knew I should've drove.

We wouldn't have lost him. Man, whatever.

If you would have been driving, we'd be back in the east right now.

Females cannot drive. It's just a fact.

A fact? According to who?

Everybody.

You just proved it here today... just now.

I cannot believe you're a male chauvinist.

It's just the truth.

The truth. You wouldn't know the truth

if it slapped you in the face.

Wait, what's that supposed to mean?

You know what? I know what...

I see how you look at me.

Better believe Nikki sees it too.

Yeah, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

Like I said, you don't know shit about the truth.

Man, I can't find the bitch nowhere, Tonk.

What we got, D? Yo let me call you back, man.

What we got, D?

Man, fuckin' Dominican shorted us again, man.

All we got is a hundred key, bro.

I thought we were supposed to get 150?

Yeah, I know, I know, man.

150.

Man, they must be rationing that shit out, man.

I don't understand this dude, man.

I told that motherfucker I needed 150.

I'm gonna have to start sending somebody else to handle this shit.

What?

What the fuck do you want from me, man?

Why you keep trying to fuck over me, bro?

Fuck is your problem, man?

You my problem.

You need to get your mind right.

Focus!

These damn self-help books ain't helping you none.

Look...

I'm only here to do what we all came to do.

Get this paper, baby.

I ain't even trippin' off that petty ass personal shit you bringing to the table.

You need to get your shit together.

I understand, man. I understand.

I'm gonna go see the Dominican, all right? Nah.

I'll go see the Dominican.

You stay here. Nah, nah, man. I can go.

I always go.

I've been doing this shit three years plus, nigga.

You stay here!

Come on, man. What the fuck, man?

Why is you acting like this, man?

I've been your fucking man since day one, bro!

You got something to say, man? Say it, man!

We at war right now.

We ain't got no time for fuck ups.

And you a fuck up.

You actin' like I owe you something.

You think I owe you something?

Nah, man. It's cool.

You fuckin' right it's cool!

Let me deal with this shit.

This is Jennifer Fowler going in-depth for our city live on the beat.

After the first attempt on his life,

investigators say Damian Young probably was

targeted because he was related to murder suspect Fred Wilson.

And associates of Wilson's victim were bent on retaliation.

After Young survived that shooting, he was approached

on the street and warned not to testify.

He moved his family out of Orleans Parish

and started sleeping with a gun under his pillow.

Young, 25, had gone back to his old neighborhood

to help a cousin get a tire. What's up, Damian?

It was August 7th, Now what?

Two days before he was to fly to Cincinnati, Ohio

to search for an apartment for his family,

including his young daughter.

He was found shot to death in front of a grocery store on St. Claude Avenue.

He had tears in his eyes and a Hershey bar in his hand.

Man, you just got capped.

What's up, fellas?

What's up?

What up, Tonk?

Let me holla at you, B. What's the problem?

I called you bro because, um, Pee Wee...

I don't know what's wrong with him, but he been slippin', B, ya heard me?

I seen... I seen it comin'.

He used to be my top head-buster, bro, but lately...

I don't know, bro. He's just on some other stuff.

You know what I'm talkin' about?

Tonk, man, if you need anything, bro, anything...

I'm the man.

I believe in you, dog. You gotta future in this game.

You know what I'm talking about?

Now, let me tell you what I want you to do.

Go on to Front Street. I need that done.

Sorry about Slinky.

Why you sayin' you sorry? You kill 'em?

Don't play with me.

That was my round.

How you know Slinky anyway?

We grew up together.

Back then he wasn't crazy, though.

Crazy?

You must not understand what it's like when you got families depending on you to eat.

Oh, I do understand what that pressure's like.

That's why I became a nurse.

Do you understand what it's like to have to go and tell

somebody's family, their mother, their brother that they dead?

You a nurse?

Yeah.

Well I ain't no doctor,

but the type of business I'm in,

you can't show no weakness.

We're like a pack of hungry dogs.

You understand me?

Well from what I understand, you got a lot of respect out there on them streets.

You don't look like a weak man to me.

You gotta make these fools respect you.

They respect only what they fear.

That's the name of the game.

You can't have no heart in this business.

No soul. That don't sound like business to me.

I mean, it's just pure evil and cruelty.

That guy who shot Slinky... He was an animal.

He had no regard for human life, or anything.

That's the nature of the beast, baby.

That's the law of the land out here.

Kill, or be killed.

I wish you could get rid of that ignorance, man.

You know what? I got a meeting.

I'm gonna tell Moto take you to the house.

It's like filling a cup of water

but there's a hole in the bottom.

It never ends. This shit never ends.

Tell me about it.

But I get through it

knowing I'm taking the bad guys off the street by doing the right thing.

I don't know about this "right thing, wrong thing,"

but sometimes you have to do the wrong thing to do the right thing.

What do you mean?

Captain, you've been on the force how long?

You never cut any corner, ever?

Can't say that I have.

Let's just come to some kind of agreement.

I'm here to take the bad guys off the street, okay?

Yeah.

8-ball, corner.

Say, bitch!

We've got to make our move.

If we don't, it could be a long time before we get another break like this.

Yeah, well let's let it be known.

Yeah?

Councilman, I have Robert Bridges on line one.

Robert Bridges.

If you can get Bridges to back you on this one,

you've got up town and the C.B.D. locked up.

Okay.

Yes, sir.Mr. Bridges, how are you?

Yes.

Well, as City Councilman, I have plenty of experience in the issues of the city.

Yes.

Yes, I feel we need to work on my public image and I can make a great mayor.

Padial can't run the city.

His daddy was a legend but he has too many issues right now.

Here were are, over here, tryin' to balance the budget,

bring new businesses in, try to solve this crime issue.

Yes, sir.

Sir, if your organization will back me, I'll bring it home to you.

I know I can.

Thank you very much, sir. Thank you.Bye-bye.

Got it.

Baby?

Don't keep me waiting, all right?

I'm a busy man. I hate to wait.

I would hate to keep mayor waiting.

Shit!

This is fucking shit!

Hello?

Baby, I cannot talk right now.

I'm on a stakeout.

No, I don't know when I'm coming home.

Christ, Nikki!

Look, do not call me back. I'll call you.

I love you.Goodbye.

What the fuck is this? Is that Pee Wee?

Coulon, it's a hit.

Police! Freeze!

Fuck!

Que Paso?

Thanks for seeing me.

Anytime, Papi.

I'll make time for you. I got plenty of time for you.

Got some motherfucking business to talk about.

Carmello, Carmello...

Always worried about fuckin' business, business.

You need to take a fucking break, man.

How the fuck I'm supposed to be taking a break if my loads keep coming up short?

Where is Damian? I like Damian.

Damian's a smart kid, man.

He bring me some good fucking balls.

Why is you talkin' about Damian, dog?

My loads is comin' up short. Damian is smart kid

and you're too fucking slow. You be needin' to pay more attention to fucking business.

Tonk made his fucking move.

He hit your fucking man.

Did you have something to do with this?

Tejano?

Tejano! Sit your ass down, motherfucker.

Sit your ass down!

It's war between you two boys.

You know what happens in war, Carmellito.

People get killed. It's reality.

War is an ugly motherfucking thing.

I'm gonna tell it to you like this...

Tonk won't live to see the summer. You don't understand, man.

Emotional is not original. You can't run your business with fucking emotions, man.

FEDS gonna come get you... after your ass.

You're gonna get fuck in' killed.

You're gonna be in six fuckin' feet.

Meanwhile, it's bad blood.

And dog don't like bad blood, nigga.

There's gonna be some more fucking blood.

Bitch, you're gonna come here and disrespect me?

I made you motherfucking rich. I need to cut your tongue out,

and send it to your fucking mother.

Do what you gotta do. Run your fucking business.

You need to stop this fucking war.

Stop it now, otherwise I will.

Motherfucker, I will.

You good?

Yeah, thanks.

Jesus Christ!

What am I supposed to do with you, huh?

I got one dead body, one missing girl, and one missing Pee Wee.

Any ideas?

God!

Hey, Captain? Jesus, are you even on the fucking force?

See you, Captain.

This is crazy.

Again?

You're not gonna answer it?

Not this time.

I'm so tired of this shit.

Tired of this shit!

Oh, Lord, it's my baby.

He's home. Hey, Momma.

How you doing? I missed you, son.

Come on in here. I got some left over catfish and rice.

You hungry? I'm all right, Momma.

Nonsense, boy. Come on in here and fix you a plate of food.

You gotta eat. I'm all right.

Well sit down. What's wrong?

Ain't nothing wrong, Momma.

Just come to see about you, that's all.

You sure you're not hungry? I'm fine.

You don't have one of those fast-teller girl pregnant, do you?

No, Momma.

Just coming to make sure you're all right, that's all.

Boy, I've been fine.

My back's been actin' up.

But you know you got a stubborn soul like your Momma,

and I'm not gonna stop my gardening.

I'm just gonna wait on God to give me my healin'.

Sometimes it feels like God forgot about us.

It's like he turns his back on us some days.

Now you stop that. You stop that, son.

God don't think like you and I.

This life of ours is nothin' but a vapor in time.

God thinks about eternity.

Don't nobody do wrong, or they last long.

"Vengeance is mine," said the Lord.

You stay on your knees, Carmello.

Remember that.

You right, Momma.

I gotta go. I love you, son.

And I'm so proud of you.

So proud of you.

Don't be proud.

You don't know half.

I gotta go.

You just don't stay away six months next time to see your Momma, Carmello.

Love you, Momma.

You see that the worst thing a gangster can do is look at the blood on his hands.

So, once he does he's never the same.

Once you look at the blood on your hands,

till it's gone, the hoes are gone,

it starts to set in.

God is gonna make you pay for what you did.

You know it.

Oh, shit, your arm. I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Take this off.

Hello?

Fuck.

What about the girl? Is she all right?

What about the girl? Mirie! Is she all right?

On my way.

I got something I need you to handle for me anyway.

All right.

Ah, I think I'm about to fucking blow up, ya heard me?

You think so, dog? Yeah, I think so. You know why?

Why? 'Cause ain't nobody got hot tracks like these, ya heard me?

You know what else?

You know what else, Fever, huh?

Pay me!

I came as soon as I heard.

Listen, Carmello, I can't stay here anymore.

I gotta go. I gotta get out of here.

I've been thinking.

Maybe it's time for me to get out of here too.

I went to go see my Momma today.

She started telling me some things about life like I ain't living.

Carmello, if you stay here, nothing's gonna keep you safe.

Ain't nothin' gonna keep me safe if I stay here.

I'll keep you safe. It's just a matter of time.

Look what happened to Mo.

Well, I do got some paper stashed.

Maybe we could go to Chicago?

California, or something.

Are you serious?

What makes you think I'm playin'?

You think I want an LA girl fixing my grits?

Is you crazy? Of course I'm serious.

You seem like you're ready for us.

Take 'em to the hoop young man.

Show 'em what you got.

Hustle for it, baby. What up, baby?

What up?

What up, bro? Y'all know this water getting deep, huh?

I mean, we can't take no prisoners, nigga. That's right.

Man, shut up, man!

Pee Wee, you on the big man, you got me?

I thought... Man, stop thinking, nigga.

That's what get you hurt. You got this? I got this.

Man, well then let's roll, man.

Man, I got that, man.

Mr. Mayor.

Chief.

Mr. Mayor. Captain.

All right, where do we stand?

We have successfully narrowed the killing field down to a seven square mile radius.

We feel that with the help of the extra DEA agents,

we can contain the killing within that area

and see a dramatic drop within about four months or so.

Away from the French Quarter and the Garden District?

Oh, yes.

We do not want the tourist areas or the upscale communities

to be affected, sir.

Upscale communities?

So just let the niggers kill themselves in their own backyard, huh?

That is not what I'm saying. What are you saying, Captain?

We are trying to contain those that kill from those that don't.

Who authorized this promotion?

'Cause I don't like it. Not at all.

If we're gonna beat this, we're gonna do it as a city united.

With all due respect Mayor, I disagree.

Then you can hand in your resignation.

Excuse me?

Chief?

You done pissed the mayor off and got yourself fired. What do you want me to do?

You want a twizzler?

At least you can walk out of here with a sweet taste in your mouth.

I thought we were trying to make a difference.

Fine.

You go down with this city.

See if I care.

Revenge is sweet.

Ain't it though?

Don't get too comfortable, Chief.

All this happened on your watch.

You could be next.

Get your department in order.

Were you really serious last night?

About what?

About you and me

going to California or Chicago.

It's just that every time I turn the TV on,

I'm just so scared on the news that the next person murdered is gonna be you.

You just don't understand.

I can see that guy killing Slinky plain as day.

You ain't got nothin' to worry about.

I got you.

I'm just afraid for you.

You have such a good heart.

You just lost your way.

Maybe I did lose my way.

All those years chasing hoes, cars, money.

It never satisfies.

I'm in too deep.

Now Damian's dead.

I gotta make a move.

Carmello, I just don't want the next person to be you.

I mean, you just gotta get out of here.

There is nothing in New Orleans for you.

Maybe you're right.

You're a smart girl, know what I'm sayin'?

Not too smart.

Look what happened. Me hanging out at the wrong place at the wrong time.

You still coming with me?

First, I'm gonna make you some breakfast.

You sound like my Momma.

Always tryin' to fatten me up.

Well Momma knows. How about that?

I'm about to make you some grits and eggs that no California girl can top.

All right, but first,

I need you to do something for me. Hmm?

Come on.

Damn!

We gotta get back to work. You need to relax.

Relax?

Rita, I told Nikki I wouldn't do this shit again.

Let's get out of here.

We don't have to go.

I'm not gonna say anything.

This should not have happened.

Come on, get dressed. Let's go.

Oh, man.

Hey, Coulon.

Shit. Are you hit, are you hit?

Shit!

Damnit!

Hold tight. I'm gonna go call backup.

This is Detective Bathgate.

We've got an officer down.

108.We got a 108.

Fucker shot me. Listen to me. Keep pressure.

Damn.

They're on the way. Just relax.

Hold on. Hold on.

This better be good.

You got me out of my office. You got one minute.

I got you on tape selling heroin to a minor.

You're lucky we don't haul your ass in right now.

Man, chill out!

Imma tell you like this...

Tonk got a problem.

You know that's my man and everything. We started out together.

But he losin' it. Talking about torching Carmello like in the old days.

I just want some peace. Save the bullshit about peace.

We know you commit murders for Tonk.

I don't know who told you that.

I'm just a bookkeeper.

You're wasting my time. Come here. Wait a minute.

There's a hit out on your Agent Sax.

We know he dirty and they want him off the streets.

He preparing secret indictment sand shit.

Who knows this?

One of y'all bitches from the clerk or court office began to put it to my man.

We know the grand jury released everything.

Who's she?

I don't know, but I'll get back to you.

You tell your little homies that if they ever touch one of my agents

all hell is gonna break loose out here and you won't be able

to sell a dime bag on the street, you got me?

You preachin' to the choir.

I love the police. I would never hurt one of my civil servants.

Fuck you.

You're gonna testify against Tonk or you go straight to jail and don't pass go.

Keep giving us the info.

We'll leave you on the streets indefinitely.

I'll keep it coming, but just don't be harrassin' me.

Keep it coming. I will.

Okay, now, stop.

We're on the job and we're supposed to be in a meeting, remember?

Oh, I know. We're discussing very, very important business

We'll discuss your kind of business later when we're off the clock.

And the boss isn't in the next office.

You're no fun.

Didn't you learn anything from Clinton?

Never get laid where you get paid.

Whatever.

So I'm really excited about the Williams case.

We got a great informant... Pee Wee.

He was a actually a gunman behind one of the killings.

Andand he's still running the streets?

Well, unfortunately, in order to stop the killing,

we've gotta make deals with the devil.

You know, I'm-I'm really not in love with that.

If he's a killer, he should be off the streets.

Don't tell me how to do my job.

I need a conviction over here.

At the expense of another life?

You know, you won't be satisfied until some poor, little black girl

gets killed on a playground. Just let you killer run free

so you can get the headline as long as he's only killing blacks.

Don't you play that race card with me.

Tell me something straight here.

Do you want to do something good here, or do you just want a salary bonus, or a promotion?

We have an obligation to protect those citizens.

This isn't a game. This isn't about a promotion.

People are dying out there and you can't afford to turn your nose up at anybody,

'cause let me tell you something, Counselor,

one of these days it might wind up in your own backyard.

You know what?

You're just like your father.

You can't save the world, you idiot.

Yeah, by the way, the sex was all bad.

Yo, what's going on, man?

I'm doing something, man.

What's up, Billy?

What's happenin'? Chill, chill.

What's up with you? Ah, you know.

What's happening with you?

Fuck is this, man?

Ah, man, police riding day and night. Can't make a move.

Man, I'm not gonna turn that shit, man.

I'm coming right with you. Bro, you gotta come right.

Man, what the fuck this is, man? You in the right, man.

Man, look, bro, get the fuck on, man.

Fuck, boy.

Yeah?

Chief, got a minute?

What the hell are you still doing here?

Chief, listen to me. We just got word Coulon's been shot.

He's en route to the hospital.

God damnit, this is getting out of control.

Chief, the DEA agents aren't cutting it.

We need 15 more officers assigned to the killing fields right now.

Shit!

You know what?

I think you're right.

We can work something out with the mayor later on.

Welcome back to the force.

What's this I hear about cops getting shot?

I thought I told you to get out of here.

Mr. Mayor, he's the best cop I got on the force.

You tell your detectives... all of them... if they see a known killer on the street,

you bring him in. I don't give a shit what the FEDS say.

You bring them in, you hear me? Yes, sir.

Mr. Mayor, we're doing every...

Bring them in and you do your goddamn job.

I've been calling you for the last two hours.

I am so tired of talking to this voicemail.

I'm your wife, you sorry bastard.

I know what you do with her.

You promised.

You promised.

When you get here,

the family you don't care about... won't be here.

I'll be gone.

God, I just want to thank you for watching over me and Mirie

on our new life together,

and I just want to ask you to help me to end some of this

pain and misery that I've been a part of.

Mirie? Hmm?

I just want to thank you.

Oh, baby.

Hello?

Ladies and gentlemen of the press... today I'm proud

to announce my candidacy for mayor of the great city of New Orleans.

Yes, ma'am?

Councilman McGraw, with all due respect,

Mayor Padial is loved by the residents of this city.

Now, how do you plan to beat him?

He has a great name in this city, but let's face it,

he's not his father. It's time for someone to be

in office to make the necessary changes.

Yes, ma'am?

What do you plan to do to decrease the sky-high murder rate?

Add more cops to the street, enforce the laws, prosecute hoodlums

and lock them up for life.

Councilman McGraw? Yes, ma'am?

That guy would fuck a snake if he opened his mouth right.

She gonna make it easy.

You know what I'm talking' about.

Who is it?

You gonna handle your business?

How'd it feel, bitch? I'm a federal agent.

Who's the fucking big, bad killer?

Hey, fuck you. Fuck you!

Who's the fucking big, bad killer, Pee Wee?

Motherfucker, die!

Come here, bitch. Wait!

What happened?

That's not good enough.

You lost me my star witness.

He's lying in a fucking chalk circle.

My judgeship is in that casket.

I needed to convict those bastards before he was killed, you incompetent fuck.

This my hood, nigga!

Come to my hood!

What's wrong with you?

You niggas can't fuck with me.

Oh, Daddy, you loved this town.

They loved you so much.

When can I get some of that love?

Just a little.

Hey, pretty girl.

How was school?

It was okay. The teacher let me put my hair down

because I wasn't feeling good.

Oh, sweetie, what's wrong?

I heard the teachers talking about there's a lot of killing.

What teachers?

Mrs. Thomas and Mr. Thayer.

They were reading the newspaper talking about all the killing.

Daddy, are you gonna get killed?

No, baby.No.

Daddy is not gonna get killed, okay? Good.

Okay, listen to me. Go ahead and go upstairs and get ready for bed, and, uh,

I'll be up in just a minute, okay? Okay.

Love you, Daddy. I love you, baby.

I would like to thank everyone for coming today.

I have with me several Federal Agents who are assisting the city of New Orleans

in it's efforts to clean up the streets.

With their help we have identified a seven square mile area called "The Hot Zone"

where most of the cities murders are taking place.

Let's be clear. This area... all drug related, gang related crimes.

A new task force of Federal Agents and local law enforcement

will be concentrating on the high crime areas

and they will not only arrest people for murders, they will arrest people for all crimes,

rather than the typical stance of this administration which is to let people slide.

Yes, sir?

Councilman McGraw, where is the mayor on this?

I have no idea. I got sick and tired of waiting around for him to lead.

I decided to do it myself.

Yes, ma'am? How are we going to fund the additional officers

and agents necessary to impact the murder rate?

I've asked for federal assistance.

We're going to take back the city for the citizens of New Orleans.

Thank you for getting Tonk.

I figured he'd last longer than Carmello.

This does not go unappreciated.

It's good to be appreciated.

Hope The Dog appreciates it.

Oh, he does. There's too much bad blood and not enough business.

I told them motherfuckers. They don't listen to me.

I figured they might listen to you.

This is for your time.

Appreciate it.

Let him in.

Man, I don't like that fool, man.

You're not supposed to like him,

but I spent enough money on you, motherfucker,

and I hope you can handle this.

If you can't do this job, you better let me know right now.

I got this. I got this.

I can do what both Tonk and Carmello was doing.

Cheaper, move more ships, and no blood.

Good, good.

You're the new face of a new generation.

Thank you.

Thank you, everyone, thank you.

Good afternoon.

Thank you very much for coming.

I know that it's been a rough couple of months,

but I can assure you that we are doing, and have done,

everything within our power to make sure that our streets

are as safe as possible for our citizens.

I've asked you, Chief Newsome, to join us here today,

along with other law enforcement officials.

And we are very pleased to announce that due to recent police reports

we are fully confident that we will see a dramatic drop in violent crime

by the end this month.

We are working day and night to clean up our streets.

Now, this is a warning to all the wanna be gangsters.

Be a gangster if you want to, but not in my city.

Not in our city.

The mayor is not taking any questions at this time.

A statement will be released from City Hall before the end of today's news cycle.

City has a weird spirit on it.

Angry spirit.

We ain't got no choice but to fight.

Fight to survive, fight poverty.

But, like I said before... That first taste,

that very first taste... that'll keep you comin' back.

How you feelin'?

Hey.

Have some water.

Okay.

Uh, I guess I'll... I'll call you later.

You know I just... This is not the time.

Hi.

Oh, my God.

What happened? Are you okay?

What they do to you?

Sorry, sorry.

Are you okay?

What happened?

You never know how many people's life you affect when you're on the grind.

When you hear that voice telling you, "gotta come up know matter what."

You gotta get your money no matter what.

That's why I pay my respects to you, my mother.

See, I know where you're coming from.

See, me and you, we're not like regular people.

Nah.

They don't make 'em like us no more.

But from here on out...

the war is over.

It's over, baby.

Rest in peace.

Yours truly, Dog.
