[Jackie]
Hey!

You find that AK-47 yet?

Oh, okay,
so I'm the asshole

for pushing a little
ballistics test through.

These things take time,
Jackie.

I'm just saying,
it shouldn't be too hard,

even for a state trooper
to find an AK-47

in fuckin' Massachusetts.

A foreign-made AK-47,

because I haven't seen an AK

since the weatherman
read the wind wrong,

but what the fuck
do I know?

I'm just the asshole.

You make a salient point.

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

You're just the asshole.

Hey, say what you want,

he hasn't fucked us yet.

That's a big word:

"yet."

[indistinct chatter]

[sighs]

Oh, hey. Junior.

Nice work on that
church shooting.

How many of those killers
you put away already?

Oh, that's right.
None.

Fuck off.

You think kissing ass
over here

is going to keep anyone
from realizing

that you got nothing
on that fucking church case?

You're not DCU anymore.

You can't just bullshit
your way through.

What, you mean like you?

-[scoffs]
-I hear you got CIs

that feed you
nothing but bullshit.

I also hear that your bosses
are sick of your bullshit.

The great Jackie Rohr.

Lynn Marsh.

What do you care?

You weren't involved
with anything there.

It's strange, is all.

Tommy goes in front

-Tommy walks--
-Don't bring up Tommy right now.

-Huh?
-I said,

you don't need
to bring up Tommy.

How did Tommy not get bagged

Because Tommy knows
how to stand up,

and Sheik took a shot
at the DA.

So you-- you're not even

Do you know what the difference
is between me and you, Jimmy?

Eleven months

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.
Where should we go, Jimmy?

There's a reason

We got a little too chummy
with the informants

and lazy

there's a case of wine
delivered to my house

Boom. Bought and paid for

Nothing.

Maybe peace of mind.

You want me to put

This is me being nice.

It's called civility.

If I tell you

you're just going to call me
a fucking liar.

Enough with the fucking
prologue, Jimmy.

[sighs]

That bar,
the Ebb Tide.

I don't know where
the guns come from

or how they get
brought in.

But the bartender...

he sells them to a shine who
works for the gas company.

Oh, blaming a person of color.
That's original.

You think I'm fucking lying?

How many fucking

If you're lying,
next time, there's no threat.

I-I-Is that human enough

Fucking knucklehead.

[sighs]

-Leonard Jensen?
-[Jackie, on phone] Yeah.

Works for the gas company.

What do you say tomorrow we pay
a little visit to his employer?

-I'm there.
-Nighty night.

[phone beeps off]

How'd you do
with the forensics?

Surprisingly,
things are going our way.

They pulled a fragment
embedded in the roof

of the armored car.

The lab test results point
towards an assault rifle.

AK-47.

Jesus. Those guards
must be dead.

Well, Jackie Rohr has a lead
on who might have sold the gun.

We find the AK,

we're that much closer
to putting the killers away.

You know, I can't wrap my head
around how Charlestown

practically voted for Nixon,
you know, law and order,

and yet they glorify that
"code of silence" nonsense.

It's tribalism, babe.

I mean, it doesn't have
to make sense, you know?

People protect their own.

Hmm.

Uh...yeah, yeah.

-Yeah.

I don't trust anyone

Even you had to earn
that privilege.

Mrs. Roach,

I'm Michaela Freda

I'm looking for your son.

His parole officer
gave me this address.

He don't live here.

Your son is a rat.

Do you know that?

For the FBI.

-I don't believe you.
-And yet, you do.

You know the kind of man
you raised.

[music playing on TV]

What the fuck, Ma?

You're lower than pond scum.

You a cop?

No, I'm a reporter.

I want to ask you
a few questions.

A couple weeks ago, you were
charged with shooting a cop.

That case was broomed.

Yeah, and I'm curious to hear
how that happened.

I mean, it's not every day

that a sergeant
changes his story on the stand.

Maybe Minogue
was lying all along.

Well, maybe the FBI pulled some
serious strings to get you off.

Which makes sense,
seeing as your file's sealed.

I've been doing this long enough
to know that's a rat red flag.

I'm-- I'm trying to watch
a movie here.

I don't want to do a story
about some paid miscreant.

Why don't you give me something
off the record?

Just tell me who you're dealing
with at the feds.

The ghost of J. Edgar Hoover.

[laughs]

Okay, you are hilarious.

But if I were
to break a story

about the junkie skell who shot
a Boston cop and got off

'cause he's paying for dope
with fed informant money.

I didn't shoot Stevie Burke.

Trey Leeds did.

-And he's dead.
-And that doesn't matter.

You know and I know,
I write that article,

there's going to be
a whole lot of people

looking to throw you
a Southie blanket party.

there was this little room
off the entrance

Most young, male, black.

All I could think was,

any of those 45 dead
black kids

could have been me.

I'd just be another
statistic.

Shit, I am a statistic.

I'm the one lone black
male prosecutor

in a Suffolk County
DA's office.

And I'm sitting here
working triple overtime

to find the killers
of three white guards.

You know, I was reading
this thing about Lincoln.

You know, everybody thinks of
him like as this idealistic god.

but the truth is is that Abe
was a master politician,

He was like Roosevelt,
but without the money.

He knew how to work
the levers,

how to reward those
that did what he wanted,

and punish those
that didn't.

The rest of it,

eh, it's just a story
we tell ourselves.

Yeah?

You know, last night I said
the same thing to Siobhan.

No one's wholly innocent.

Hmm.

Or wholly guilty.

At least I hope not.

Otherwise, I won't be
well remembered.

You had to mention Lincoln,
though?

Literally I just
read that.

This is going
to be an adventure.

You ready?

-[sighs]
-[water sloshes]

-Dad!
-Yeah?

The water's still cold.

Oh, yeah?
You can't handle the cold?

You sit in the tub.

[sighs]

I did when I was your age.

Your uncle and I
wanted to be frogmen

more than anything else
in the entire world.

We'd take cold baths and see who
could stay in there the longest.

I could be a frogman.

Yeah. Absolutely,
you could.

It's not going to be
like this forever.

[man and woman
arguing indistinctly]

[door squeaks open]

You know last time
I was in Roxbury?

Not now. I'm sick.

What, these other shitbags
don't take care of you?

There's no honor
anymore.

[gasps]

I'm going to go
into fucking shock.

I figured this might
be the case.

[groans]

[pills rattle]

Leonard Jensen.

Where does he store
the guns?

No, Jackie, seriously,
I'm going to die.

Then, please,
let me help you.

I tell you about the guns, I'm--
I'm done. I'm no good to you.

I. Don't. Care.

W-Well, that--
that's it?

That's-- that's all
my loyalty gets me?

Okay.

[sniffles]
After.

Help me and I'll talk,

and after I'll--
I'll-- I'll be done.

For your troubles.

Actually, last time
I was in Roxbury

was a couple of years ago.

I took my daughter
to the zoo.

Yeah, and this black bastard
comes up to me,

sticks a zip gun
right in my side,

asks for my shoes.

Gucci loafers.
Brand-new.

And my daughter,
I don't want her to see this.

She's over there
watching the monkeys, right?

So I take off the shoes
and I give them to the guy.

Later, she notices
and she says to me,

"Dad, what happened
to your shoes?"

I told her the monkeys
took 'em.

[laughs]

Made her day.

[sighs]

So where does Jensen
store the guns?

[sighs]

Know what, Jack?

Fuck you.

-Hmm.
-[laughs]

[sighs]

[sneezing, gagging]

[sniffles]

Do you think I'm fucking
stupid?

Oh! What was that?

Nothing that'll kill you.

Just weaker
than you need.

I won't ask you again,
you fuck.

[sighs and sniffles]

Jackie, these--

These niggers won't just
blow my brains out.

So you want a chance to run?
I'm offering you one.

But you play games,
and I'm going to leave you here.

And if you survive the night,

I'm gonna throw your ass
in Walpole.

You think you'll do
okay in there? Huh?

All on your own?

So af-af-after everything,
you cut me loose?

What are we, friends?

Uh...

[sniffles]

Apar--
[clears throat]

Apartment 317, Building 4.

Okay.

I need more.

So do I.

Keep talking.

[Bill Clinton, on TV]
I debate Jerry's tax,

because I agree with the
New York Daily News columnist

who said it was the biggest
rip-off of working people

in the history
of American politics.

-It was a terrible idea, but...
-[audience applauds]

Oh, are you a Jerry Brown man,
Decourcy?

The only one talking about
taking money from the rich,

so, yeah.

Not because
he wants to put

Reverend Jesse Jackson
on the ticket?

I'm not the biggest fan
of reverends at the moment.

And why is that?

-He means Fields.
-What?

Why?

-What happened?
-[sighs]

Women are
accusing him.

And you
believe them?

Yeah, Mom, I do.
He came onto me.

[man]
Wait, what happened?

[Siobhan]
I handled him fine.

[man]
No. Siobhan, what did he do?

What I went through is nothing
compared to the other women.

Well, this accusation
hurts all of us.

You don't think he should
take responsibility

for what he's done?

There are things you have to do
sometimes for the cause.

[Siobhan] So I should preserve
his reputation for the greater
good?

Close my eyes, lie,
for the greater good?

Fields isn't perfect.
Are you?

-Are you?
-That's not the problem.

What's the problem,
Decourcy?

The problem is that
we marginalize ourselves

every time we bring the subject
back to race.

The coalition's not about race.
It's about justice.

Y-You make race the problem

and not something
that's more inclusive,

then we'll always
be defined as black.

All right?
So for the cause,

hey, all due respect,

it's not the same battle.

You have no idea
what I've been through.

You think things
are bad now?

When the Civil Rights Movement
was fully--

There we go.

Yeah, that's right.
Here I go.

Mom...

[sighs]
Well, there are debates,

-and there are debates.
-Mom, wait a minute.

[door opens]

Bye.

[door closes]

I thought you'd learn by now

how to speak
to my mother.

Well, since we're
asking questions,

were you ever going to tell me
about what Fields did to you?

He didn't do anything.

Just paid too much attention,

made an inappropriate comment.

The other day,
you said I earned your trust.

-Yes.
-What else don't you tell me?

Excuse me?

No, you know...

you got another part
of your life, that's fine.

That's fine.
I understand.

[rock music playing
on radio]

[dials]

[rings]

[rock music playing over phone]

Hmm?

[snorts]

Why are you up this late?

Why are you?

Found the rat at the apartment
where the guns are being stored.

Bromley Heath, Building 4,
Apartment 317.

Well, I'll get the warrant.

Yeah, and get your boss to agree

and we'll go to town
on these bastards.

[sighs]

Hey, can I ask you something?

Yeah, sure.

Do you ever get tired
of the shit?

You ever read Macbeth?

I'm so far in,

it would take just as long
to turn back.

Nighty night.

[phone beeps off]

The guns are in the apartment
at Bromley Heath.

Hank Signa's organizing
a raid at dawn.

I was you, I'd bring in
the Youth Violence Strike Force,

BPD, they, uh--

they organize this group
to, uh-- to deal with the gangs.

And they could
use a break.

Well, these guys can be
a part of the bust

as long as they understand the
state troopers call the shots.

Yeah, you're going to like
these Strike Force guys. Okay?

-Yeah?
-Yeah, yeah.

They're just like you.

They want to change the world.

[chuckles]

[Michaela] Why two versions
of the same story?

Clay Roach shot your partner.

Trey Leeds shot your partner.
Which is which?

[Minogue] You want answers,
you fucking bitch? Huh?

Look in your diary, back when
you were fucking a certain fed

to get on the front page.

[Michaela]
Counselor.

[Decourcy]
Chris Caysen around?

Yo, Cap.

You got a gentleman caller.

Decourcy Ward?

Indeed I am.

Good to see
Minogue's calmed down.

Yeah, he has his uses.

Scares children.

We take him out onto the street,
tell kids they don't cooperate,

we'll let him
out of his cage.

What's going on here?

Is that what you guys do
down here?

We let the players know
we're not going anywhere.

Makes doing their business hard.

They want us gone,
stop shooting each other.

Jeez, who'd you piss off
to get this assignment?

No one.
I'm here on my own choosing.

Eleven-year-old girl
sitting on a mailbox.

Tiffany Moore.

Two stray bullets.

You were there?

I saw enough.

What?

-This Bromley Heath gun thing.
-Yeah?

Last time I was over there,
they shot my partner.

-Who's "they"?
-I want to be first in.

[Chris] I-- I'll take your
request under consideration.

Yeah, you consider.
I'm first man in.

Hey--

Fucking asshole.

So, I assume
you're willing to work

with the state troopers
on this raid.

Don't assume.

You sat with all those
other pinstripes

on the St. Clair Commission.

Looking down from your pedestal
at us lowly cops.

I never called cops lowly.

There's a caste system
in this town.

White, black, lawyer, cop,
pilgrim, Injun.

Before we come together,

you have to prove you see me and
the men I work with as equal.

[laughs]

Now that's ironic.

My brother's a cop.

NYPD.

He was sitting in his patrol car
protecting a witness house.

He was ambushed.
Nearly died.

Uh-huh.

[laughs]

Was this the same day
your dad marched with Dr. King?

I'm a detective, Ward.

I check out the people
I'm going to be dealing with.

I do too.

Hmm?

You thought Charles Stuart
was innocent

even after he jumped.

If you're always right,
you're doing something wrong.

-Who said that?
-I did.

My men are a team.

Let us do what we do.

Troopers can be backup.

Hank Signa
will understand.

Okay.

And for the record,

my brother really is a cop.
