REPORTER: The fire at this
NYPD evidence warehouse

began in the early morning hours.

The Queens facility houses
evidence critical

to both current and past cases.

While the cause of the blaze is under

investigation, it's clear this

represents a massive blow...

- Hell of a mess.
- Phones haven't stopped ringing.

It's every detective
in the city calling to see

if their perp just scored
a "get out of jail free" card.

I just hope none of the evidence

from our cases was stored
in that facility.

Well, right now there's one case
at the top of that list.

Come on.

This is a developing story.

I just got a call
from the federal prosecutors

on the Zaragozas' case.

Sounds like bad news.

The DNA evidence linking Diego Rodriguez

to those 7 Ace Double Trey homicides?

Destroyed in that fire.

But it was already tested, right?

No, the lab screwed up.
They never tested it.

They never even ordered the test.

Without that evidence...

The head of the Zaragoza cartel

- could go free.
- Yeah.

So, what's the game plan?

We got to find some way
to connect Rodriguez

to those murders.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Hey.

Abetemarco.

You guys come up with anything
on the canvas?

No one saw the suspect exit the store.

A name perp committed
a robbery here last week.

Yeah, Freddie James.

We already questioned him at the squad.

- And?
- Don't have enough to hold him.

I'm telling you, he's your guy.

Leave your number. I'll keep you posted.

I appreciate it, pal, thanks.

No problem.

Freddie James, get your hand
out of your pocket.

I already talked to the cops.

You got some pair of balls
hanging out around here.

I had nothing to do
with that guy getting killed.

You're a damn liar.

Arrest me, then.

Now get the hell out of here.

- Didn't think so.
- Yeah, beat it. Now.

CROWD: No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace!

(CLAMORING CONTINUING)

- Hey.
- Hey, let it go.

OFFICER: Guy chucked a bottle at me.

- Are you kidding me?
- Anti-cop protesters

are always looking to provoke a fight.

Orders are

to avoid one.

Yeah! (CLAMORING CONTINUES)

I'm gonna head back to my post.

CROWD: No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace!

You better keep walking.

What are you gonna do, shoot me?

I told you to take a...

All right, all right, okay,
that's it, you're under arrest.

- Hey! Get off me!
- Okay.

- Hands behind your back.
- Ow!

(SCREAMING)

She's assaulting me!

I need a bus at 15th
and Union Square West.

(CRYING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Fire Marshal Chieco?

- Take a number.
- Sergeant Reagan, Intel Division.

I'm coordinating the NYPD investigation

into the cause of the fire.

- Uh-huh.
- Wanted to let you know

I look forward to partnering
with you on this.

Excuse me, Chief.

Look, Reagan.

Arson investigations are FDNY turf.

We've got the experience
and the expertise.

- I respect that.
- Details will be

shared with the NYPD
Arson/Explosion Team

on a need-to-know-basis.

Here's what you need to know, Marshal.

All the evidence collected at this site

by the FDNY will be processed

- at the NYPD crime lab.
- Meaning?

Meaning the FDNY will receive exactly

the cooperation it provides.

I don't appreciate
your tactics, Sergeant.

This isn't about tactics.

This is about the decades of NYPD blood,

sweat and tears mixed in with
the ashes of this warehouse.

I intend to find out what happened here.

A joint investigation.

I look forward to working with you.

Anti-cop rally in Union
Square this morning.

You're looking at Officer
Edit Janko's body cam.

GORMLEY: Look clean to me, boss.

He says predictably.

The protester's in the ER

complaining of a resulting neck injury.

Flopping like one of them
World Cup soccer players.

Dozens of cell phones caught it.

All the outlets have it.

Including the moments before
her body cam was activated?

That I don't know.

Well, that's what's gonna tell the tale.

- Come on, guys.
- Come on, what, Sid?

When do we take a stand and say enough?

Enough of every cop is just

a short fuse waiting to be lit?

I hear you, Sid, but you got...

I know, I know, I'm a broken record.

But, come on, Eddie Janko?

I mean, where do we draw the line?

Not our line to draw, Sid.

Are you suggesting she be pulled
from active duty?

No. The evidence is inconclusive.

Even by the harshest light.

Officer Janko should
remain on full duty.

I have Officer Janko, sir.

You do?

Okay.

We'll give you the room.
Hold on a minute.

Do we need the room?

That's up to you, sir. It's your room.

They'll stay.

Well, please.

So, we've been talking about you.

Yeah, I wanted to discuss
the incident at the protest.

Yeah, we just did.

I'm sure there's, uh, pressure

to place me on modified duty.

Well...

I should be modified.

I have to be, for all our good.

Did you use excessive force?

No, sir.

Have you lost faith in our ability

to conduct a fair investigation?

Not at all.

Then I'm at a loss here, Officer.

If I stay on full duty, it'll
prove I have a hook in One PP.

And I don't want that.

That decision lies with the PC.

And I've made mine.

May I speak freely?

Haven't you been?

You go out of your way
not to show favoritism

to anyone in the family.

Well, I try.

Perception out there's different.

Well, I can't worry about that.

But I have to.

Being your family plays like

a leg up and a free pass
to the vast majority of cops.

Who don't know you and don't know me.

And they never will.

Look.

I don't give my family
special treatment.

But I also don't subject 'em
to special condemnation.

I know you wouldn't keep me on patrol

if you didn't think
it was the right thing to do.

Yeah, so what's going on here?

I'm protecting my reputation.

I have to err
on the side of caution here.

Even if that means I'm gonna ride a desk

until this whole thing blows over.

That's the price.

I appreciate you coming, Detective.

Guess bad news travels fast, huh?

I assumed you'd be more
careful with your evidence.

Me, too.

Look, if you asked me here

to rub my nose in it, I got stuff to do.

Quite the opposite.

I wanted to apologize.

Come again?

Things got very personal between us.

The threat to your sons' lives?

I had nothing to do with that.

Hmm, well, you're a real saint, thanks.

I'm a businessman.

No, you're a drug dealer.

And you murder anyone
who gets in your way.

Those gang members who died...

Who were executed under your orders.

...they all had long criminal records.

Violent men.

We both know the world's
a lot safer without them.

Well, what about
all the innocent people who die

from your poison?

Is the world a lot safer without them?

I make a clean product.

If my distributors alter it
to increase their profits,

they suffer the consequences.

Right, like the ADTs.

Well... (LAUGHS)

- I was speaking hypothetically.
- Look,

if you got something to say,
just say it.

I got work to do.

Like keeping me in prison?

You're damn right.

I respect your determination, Detective.

You know,

you remind me a lot of myself.

I'm nothing like you.

You didn't threaten
the lives of my daughters

to get what you wanted?

But that's in the past.

Like your case against me.

A word of advice.

Let it go.

Me entiendes?

(LOCK BUZZES)

- (LATCH CLICKS)
- GUARD: Let's go.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

There you are.

Do you have the list
of salvageable cases?

I'm working on it.

What's, what's wrong?

Remember Matthew Lassiter?

The guy that you helped
with his dispensary license?

Yeah.

I stopped by to see him this morning.

Okay, and how is he?

He's dead.

What?

He got shot in his store.

Oh, my God. What happened?

Must have been the same prick
that robbed him last week

making sure Matthew couldn't ID him.

Any surveillance video?

- Kept his back to the camera.
- Witnesses?

Customer in the shop says
she didn't see the shooter.

And believe me, you would remember him.

Freddie James.

He's been terrorizing that
neighborhood for a month.

Well... I'm sure
the cops will catch him.

All the same, I'd like a little
time to help make this right.

Anthony, we're in crisis right now.

Every hour that goes by, more defendants

are gonna be released.

Look, this guy lost
three years of his life

in jail for something that is legal now.

And then he took a bullet

for trying to make an honest living?

I just can't let this go.

Okay, catch him fast.

- Thanks, I owe you one.
- Yeah.

I'll put it on your tab.

Martin Hughes?

I'm Sergeant Reagan.

- That didn't take long.
- I'm sorry?

Got to blame this fire on someone.

Why not the warehouse supervisor?

- I just want to ask some questions.
- Save you the trouble.

This was a disaster waiting to happen.

I kept asking for the resources to make

this place safe,
the answer was always no.

If you know how the fire started...

I'm done talking.

I'm not gonna give them
any more rope to hang me with.

I'd like to talk to your staff.

Free country.

(SIGHS)

He was like that before the fire, too.

I'm Sergeant Reagan.

Bradley Loomis. I work the night shift.

Or, at least, I did.

Were you in the warehouse
when the fire started?

Yeah. The flames were everywhere.
I barely made it out.

You were lucky.

Did the sprinkler systems engage?

No. So, Martin's
right about the warehouse

needing major upgrades.

And did you see anything suspicious

in the hours before the fire?

I've gone over it in my mind.

It was just a normal night.

Okay. Well, um, if you
recall anything...

I've worked in this place for 22 years.

Protecting this evidence,
it meant everything to me.

We're gonna find who did this.

MAN: Did you get that
money I sent you last week?

WOMAN: Yeah, I got it.

- MAN: Okay.
- WOMAN: I appreciate it.

You Moses?

Sit down.

Appreciate you seeing me.

Most cops don't call ahead.

They just break the door down.

My guys'll do that if
you try anything funny

while I'm in here.

I'll cut to the chase...

I know why you're here.

You do?

Diego Rodriguez is about to walk,

and you need me to help
you keep him in prison.

We saw him walk in here the day before

seven of your men were executed.

We had business.

He make any threatening
statements during that business?

If he did,

I wouldn't tell you.

Seven ADTs were executed on your watch.

You give up Rodriguez,
you even the score.

You think the Zaragozas
would make a move like that

on their own and start a war?

You're saying you okayed the execution

of seven of your own men?

I'm saying there are rules
to our business with the cartel.

Yeah, I know. No cutting the product.

Those who broke the rules
paid the price.

And you stay in business
with the cartel.

Thanks for your time.

You won't draft an arrest warrant

for Freddie James?

I read the report.
There's not enough evidence

to arrest him for
killing Matthew Lassiter.

That's why I need the warrant.

Couple hours in the box

with this guy, and he'll confess.

With or without a rubber hose?

James had motive to kill Matthew.

Motive alone is not enough,
and you know it.

Find something solid,
and I will seek an arrest warrant.

Until then, I need you
back in the office.

I need some more time.

Anthony, we are
hemorrhaging prosecutions here.

Listen, this prick killed
Matthew Lassiter,

and if he stays on the street,
he's gonna kill someone else.

Okay, I understand you two were friends.

Yeah, like you're supposed to be.

I see that you're pissed off,
but you need to get in line.

There are people all over this city

finding out the justice
that they thought they had

went up in flames, and it is our job

to save as many of
these cases as possible.

This can't be personal.

Well, it's personal to me.

(SIGHS)

Officer Janko, sir.

Let's have her.

Do I salute if I'm in civvies?

Dealer's choice.

Not necessary. Have a seat.

How are you holding up?

Mm, better now.

Cleared by the department,

and the D.A. refused to press charges.

All good news.

Yeah.

Apparently not.

Well, there's been a complication.

That loon you arrested

filed a civil lawsuit against the city.

You've got to be kidding.

She's seeking $2 million in damages.

She resisted arrest.
It's been gone over.

And still, I barely touched her.

We know.

She claims she is incapacitated
from the neck injury.

Okay.

Well, I've been cleared twice.

There's no reason to think

I won't be cleared again, right?

Well, that's the complicated part.

GORMLEY: Due to the lawsuit,

the Civilian Complaint Review Board

will review the excessive
force allegation.

You have the power to
override that, right?

I do.

You still believe I'm innocent, right?

I do.

But it presents a conflict
of interest for me,

as you correctly pointed out.

(SIGHS) So I will have to
abide by their decision.

Everyone knows CCRB is anti-cop.

You will have department counsel,

and the evidence is
strongly on your side.

But you won't be.

I will be in spirit.

Wait, if just CCRB
says I crossed the line,

I could lose my job?

Boss, we both know
this lawsuit is bogus.

Then it will go away.

But it still gives CCRB
a shot to take her down

for spite.

Boss, why don't we put
a TARU team on this "victim,"

and see if she's really hurt.

Would you do that if I wasn't
a member of the family?

Did you really expect
the head of the ADTs

- to give up Rodriguez?
- It was worth a try.

There's nothing here

that ties him to the crime scene.

No physical evidence,

no eyewitnesses.

There were two surveillance
cameras on the block,

though they were disabled.

Zaragoza hit men are pros.

But one of them screwed up.

Juan Carlos Lopez.

El Demonio. Real psycho.

They lifted his print off
a shell casing at the scene.

- He's doing life.
- But he refused

to identify Rodriguez as his accomplice.

True, but maybe after a year inside,

they can make him an offer
he can't refuse.

(SCOFFS) That's a long shot, Danny.

Well, all we've got is long shots.

It's worth a try. The clock's ticking.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Mrs. Carter?

I'm Detective Abetemarco.

- Can I help you?
- Hope so.

I wanted to talk to you about
the murder at the dispensary.

It was horrible.

Matthew was a wonderful person.

And do you shop in there a lot?

I have neuropathy.

It really helps me with the pain.

And you were in the shop
when Matthew was killed?

I was holding his hand when he died.

You told the detective
you didn't see the shooter?

I took cover when I heard the shots,

and when I got up, he was gone.

I'm hungry, Mama.

Okay, baby, I'll be right there.

Okay.

The guy who killed Matthew
is still out there.

We need someone to come forward,
and identify him.

I'd like to help you, but...

Look, you're scared.

I get it, the guy is dangerous.

But I'm sure you don't want him

hurting somebody else.

Look, I'm sorry to have bothered you.

Wait.

Okay.

I'll identify him.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Yeah, the place is nearly a total loss.

Whatever the fire didn't destroy,

the water we used, it finished the job.

Any progress on the cause?

Whoever torched this place

knew exactly what they were doing.

Could point to a crime organization.

ADTs, mafia, drug cartel.

Yeah, that's what we thought,

but the incendiary device we
found was pretty primitive.

Homemade?

Yeah, stuff you can find

at any hardware store or online.

What about the sprinkler system?

It was functional, but disabled.

All of which could point
to an inside job.

Yeah, that's why I'm
counting on your team

to figure out who around here

wanted to see this place burn.

(INDISTINCT P.A. ANNOUNCEMENTS)

Make it fast.

I don't want anybody seeing me
talking to no damn cop.

You think I want someone to
see me hanging out with you?

But here you are.

You heard about the warehouse fire?

- It's like Christmas up in here.
- Yeah.

And Rodriguez, he got a real
nice Christmas present.

- He's a lucky man.
- Yeah,

he's on his way back
to his villa in Mexico

while you sit here and rot away
for the rest of your life

for murders he ordered you to commit.

I don't know nothing about that.

You can pretend you don't know
what I'm talking about,

but we both know it doesn't
have to be this way.

I swore an oath to the Zaragozas.

A cop...

just wouldn't understand.

You think Rodriguez would
keep his oath for you?

We're done.

Time served, no extradition.

Federal protection.

All wrapped up with a pretty bow.

Don't you think you
deserve a present, too?

Is that from the Feds?

Yeah.

It's a one-time offer,

and it will not come around again.

If you get that in writing...

I'll give you Rodriguez.

All you got to do is tell me

if you see the guy
who shot Matthew Lassiter.

I understand.

You ready?

You recognize anyone?

It happened so fast.

Okay. Take your time.

No rush.

I'm sorry. I don't recognize anyone.

Listen, listen.

Why don't you just
give yourself a minute?

I can't do this.

I've done a lot of these,

and I think you spotted the shooter.

I was walking Amy home
from school today,

and that monster came up to us.

He threatened you?

He said Amy was a beautiful girl,

and it would be a shame
if something happened to her.

Look, he's just trying to scare you.

Well, it worked.

I want to help you,

but I can't have this guy
coming after my kid.

I'm impressed.

(CHUCKLES)

You learn a few tricks over the years.

I just wish I could
save more of this stuff.

What'll you do after the
salvage operation is over?

I've been assigned to
a warehouse in Red Hook.

(SIGHS) It won't be the same.

You put a lot of years into this place.

Anyone have reason enough to act out?

Are you asking me if one of
them might have set the fire?

We're examining every possibility.

Look, I know these people.

All the more reason
I thought you might be able

to point me in the right direction.

I'm really not comfortable
making accusations.

I know it's tough.

I also know you understand

the incredible damage
that was done here.

Martin Hughes?

He was recently suspended

for altering time cards.

He was furious, making threats.

What kind of threats?

He said they messed with the wrong guy,

that he...

felt like burning
the place to the ground.

Real tough spot.

This lawsuit's got Eddie in a box.

I'm not just thinking about Eddie.

Pop, if the CCRB wants
her gone and I overrule them,

I'd be right, but it
would stink to high heaven.

And she sure as hell doesn't want that.

Reminds me of when you
were getting your gold shield.

I didn't know that was a problem.

'Cause I never told you.

On merit, you were the top candidate,

but you were also the
youngest guy on the list

by a good five years.

- With the same last name.
- Yeah.

Chief of D's wanted me
to put your name on the grid,

wait a couple of years.

But?

But I had a rule when it came to you.

There was never a hook,

but there was never a sinker, either.

But in this case? In these times?

Come on. I saw the bodycam footage.

This "victim" could win an Oscar.

Yeah, she's sued the city twice
and settled both times.

Huh. Nice work if you can get it.

Yeah, in this case,
the victim is the perp

and our cop is the victim.

But not if we can prove

that this woman is the grifter she is.

Well, Sid wanted to put
surveillance on her.

Smart move.

Well, I denied the request.

Why the hell would you do that?

Because any evidence
collected by the department

and okayed by me
would be immediately suspect,

and rightly so.

And like you said, "no hook."

I also said "no sinker, either."

Well, I'm not going to do that.

Got to hand it to you, Reagan.

I can't believe you got Lopez to flip.

Well, it's 'cause you doubted me.

No, never. You still
had to sell it, though.

Yeah. Did you think I wouldn't?

- (PHONE RINGING)
- It's what I do.

Can't wait to see Rodriguez's face

when he finds out his top
assassin flipped on him.

Reagan.

Yeah.

When?

Okay.

What is it?

They found Lopez dead in his cell.

(SIGHS)

Back where we started.

Yeah.

I should've seen it coming.

Lopez getting killed
isn't on you, Danny.

I know, but I should've
had the statement there

and ready for him to sign.

There's no way the Feds
could turn around

a cooperation agreement that fast.

I still could've put him
into solitary or something.

The Zaragozas still
could have gotten to him.

What gets to me is Rodriguez,

walking around like he's untouchable.

Above the law.
I'm starting to think he is.

If he walks, we'll catch him again.

And how many people
have to die in the meantime?

Look, I get it.

Most perps kill as a last resort,

but guys like Rodriguez,

that's where they start.

Right.

And that's exactly how we're
gonna nail this bastard.

JAMIE: Appreciate you coming in.

Didn't seem like I had much choice.

I'm just trying to get some information.

In my experience, usually means
it's time to get a lawyer.

Yeah, what experience is that?

I'm guessing you checked
my personnel folder.

Along with everyone else's
who's worked in that warehouse.

I'm the only one who
got suspended recently.

And from what I hear, you were
pretty pissed off about that.

Where'd you hear that?

Most people would be.

I altered time cards.
I got what I had coming.

Why'd you do it?

One of my clerks is going through chemo.

Money is tight.

So, when he couldn't make it in...

You punched his time card.

I deserved that suspension,

but I'd do the same thing again.

That sounds like you
take care of your people.

We all got problems.

Any of your people got problem
enough to light a match?

When I got promoted to supervisor,

there was another guy who
thought he deserved the job.

This guy ever make any threats?

Yeah, but I figured he was
just blowing off steam.

Or blowing smoke.

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING)

Any word from CCRB?

- They are reviewing the evidence.
- Oh.

Bunch of mice chasing their tails.

What'd your lawyer say?

(SCOFFS) That it's a bad time

to be accused of police brutality.

Well, is it true CCRB hates cops?

Well, I wonder where you learned that.

They do have a legitimate

oversight role.

Oversight on something
they do not understand.

Or even try to understand.

JAMIE: It's a civilian-run board,

but they gave the PC power over them.

Which doesn't help Eddie in this case.

ERIN: Well, welcome to the club, Eddie.

I mean, I'm proud to be a Reagan,

but sometimes, when it comes
to the job, it is a pain.

Mm.

I almost didn't get my intel gig

because my boss was afraid that One PP

would be looking over his shoulder.

Which it wasn't, isn't, and won't.

Still, I'm in his position,

I understand asking the question.

When I first started
at the D.A.'s office,

I had a supervisor who
refused to assign any cases

where the defendants were a cop.

They thought you'd go easy on them?

(SIGHS) You know,
PC's daughter, appearances,

blah-blah-blah.

So, what did you do?

I told her that if she
doubted my objectivity,

then maybe she should fire me.

Ooh.

Clearly, that didn't happen.

You pretty much run the place now.

Well, I did promise to recuse myself

if any of you got arrested.

Just when we needed you most?

Right.

You wouldn't hide a little
evidence to help tip the scale?

Well, you know, for you?
Probably. But for Danny...

Really nice.

Well, let's hope we never
have to test that.

Yeah.

When I made detective, I had a boss

who everyone was certain
was giving me special treatment.

Best tours, best cases.

And?

He was. They were right.

He was so worried
that I'd go whining to Dad,

he basically worked my cases for me.

Captain Albright, I recall.

Captain "Not All Bright"
is how we referred to him.

I transferred out of there,

and he put in his papers. He retired

and became a plumber's
contractor or something.

Yeah, he always was kind of...

Full of it?

You got that right.

A.D.A. Chu's asking
about the Riley case.

Lab still had the perp's hoodie.

Got a positive DNA match.

Great.

Heard your witness, uh,

couldn't identify Freddie James.

More like wouldn't.

Well, she was in a difficult position.

Yeah.

So what're you gonna do now?

I'm gonna get a fresh cup of coffee,

and then I'm gonna work my way

through that stack of files.

I meant about the Lassiter case.

There is no case.

You said so yourself.

So you're just gonna give up?

We're hemorrhaging cases, remember?

Yeah, and I also
remember you saying that

if Freddie James stays on the streets,

someone else will get killed.

And you told me

not to take it personally.

Since when have you ever listened to me?

(LOCK BUZZES)

Always good to see you, Detective.

So, you had Lopez killed, huh?

Prison is a violent place.
I won't miss it.

You're not going anywhere.

My lawyers tell me different.

Well, Lopez admitted you gave the order

to have seven ADTs executed.

It's a shame he won't be around
to testify in court.

That is a shame. He won't be around.

But I will.

Anything Lopez told you is hearsay.

And inadmissible.

That's exactly what I thought.

That is, until the assistant
U.S. attorneys working your case

told me that there are
exceptions to that rule.

You're bluffing.

23 exceptions, in fact,

just to Federal Hearsay
Rule 803 alone. Imagine that.

You never give up.

Even when you should.

Maybe, but when those
prosecutors get me on the stand,

put me in front of that jury...

me, a decorated NYPD detective

and deputized federal law officer...

well, I'm gonna tell them all about you,

and when I do,

it's gonna be adios, my friend.

I'll see you in court.

(ENGINE STARTS)

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(SIRENS WAILING)

NYPD! Freeze! Do not move!

- Hands behind your head!
- (OVER LOUDSPEAKER): Don't move!

OFFICER: Hands! Hands!

Danny? Danny, are you okay?

You know, you guys really
took your sweet time.

You scared the heck out of me.
That is not funny.

- Sorry.
- It's not funny.

- I'm sorry.
- (SIGHS)

You said to wait until they opened fire.

Yeah, but not that long.

Remind me to thank Fleet Services

for these bullet-resistant
doors. They actually work.

Well...

there was one casualty, though.

That could've been your head.

Could've been. But my plan was right.

Yeah.

How did you know Rodriguez

would put a hit out on you? Here.

Well, you said yourself,

guys like Rodriguez
always start with murder.

So, when you think about it,

this whole thing was my idea.

Technically, yeah, it is.

All right, we'll split it.

Okay. Beers on me when
Rodriguez goes down.

- Deal.
- Yeah.

(SIGHS)

Sergeant Reagan.

You heading home?

Oh, just to shower and change.

Still a ton of work to do.

- You saw to that.
- I'm sorry?

I spoke with Martin Hughes.

Do you think he did it?

No, but he gave me some information

that pointed me toward who did.

I really should be getting home.

You wanted to be warehouse supervisor?

Well, I did put in the time.

Twice as many years as Hughes.

That's right.

Unblemished record.

And so, it hurt when
they passed you over?

I was disappointed.

According to the texts
that you sent downtown,

you were seriously pissed off.

I wanted my contribution
to be recognized.

And so you decided to send a message.

We got a warrant

to search your vehicle.

Flammable liquid,

smokeless gunpowder, rags.

All materials consistent with
what was used to start the fire.

I gave everything to this place.

And then you decided to destroy it.

No, I-I never expected it
to go this far.

I thought if I...

if I could put the fire out...

You'd be seen as a hero,

and get that promotion that you wanted?

The promotion I deserved.

I know that you see yourself as
the victim here, but you're not.

The real victims are out there,

living their lives,

no idea what's coming.

Assault, rape, murder.

They'll be the victims
of the perps you set free

by lighting that match.

Turn around.

You're under arrest.

(HANDCUFFS CLICKING)

Can I help you?

Give me the cash
and the weed in the back.

Hurry up!

Police, don't move! Drop the gun!

(GROANS)

You set me up.

You set yourself up.
You had a free pass,

and you blew it.

This time you're going away.

This is for Matthew.

(LOCK BUZZES, LATCH CLICKS)

Going somewhere?

Kind of look like you saw a ghost.

I'm surprised to see you, Detective.

Hmm, thought I'd be dead by now?

I don't know what you mean.

Two of the men you sent to kill me

told us that it was you
who ordered the hit.

They're lying.

Right. And your pal from
the yard who gave you up, too?

Is he lying?

You know, you burn too many people,

eventually you get bit.

You can't convict me
for killing those ADTs,

so you make up a new charge.

No, you did that all by yourself.

I told you I was gonna testify.

You could've fought it in court.

You probably would've won
with your lawyers.

One thing I've learned:
never trust lawyers.

Mm. Instead, you just do
what you always do.

Make someone dead.

Only this time, you chose the wrong guy.

You were the right guy.

I chose the wrong people.

Well, you and those people

committed conspiracy to murder

and attempted murder
of a federal officer.

Now, that may not be multiple homicides,

but the conspiracy alone
carries a 20-year minimum.

You have to convict me first.

I'll be there to make sure they do.

Do you really think you've
accomplished something?

Even if you put me away,

someone else will take my place.

Good. I'll go after them, too.

It's a fight you can't win.

Knowing that you're gonna do 20 years

is a win in my book.

Gate.

(LOCK BUZZES, LATCH CLICKS)

Sir, I have...

Officer Janko,

who's just been cleared by CCRB.

(CHUCKLES)

Good news.

Congratulations, Eddie.

Thank you.

I don't know what happened.

Just, all of a sudden, she
dropped it like a hot potato.

Well, whatever happened,

- that's great.
- Yeah.

Please.

You know, when I was
first riding with Jamie,

he'd talk about the kind of dad you are,

who sets an example

with a light touch,
and who leaves you be,

but somehow always knows
when you need him,

and just... appears.

I always wondered
what that would be like.

(SIGHS)

Now I know.

Well, thank you for that,

but, Eddie, I did disappear in all this.

Oh, okay.

I get it.

Eddie, no one in this office

had anything to do with it.

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

So, I should just leave that there.

Take it or leave it.

But it's the truth.

What do you say we go for a ride?

(CLEARS THROAT)

Hey, Pop.

Hey, what're you two doing here?

Eddie got some good news.

CCRB cleared me of wrongdoing.

About time those morons got one right.

Well, see, it turns out

that someone photographed

the plaintiff changing a tire

that someone most likely

let the air out of.

And guess what?

She changed it without a neck brace,

nimble as a cat.

Hmm.

There. Good as new.

(CHUCKLES)

Back in the day,

if something was broken,
like this toaster say,

you just fixed it.

You didn't ask permission,
you didn't make a big fuss,

you just grabbed a screwdriver.

Back in your day?

In the day.

Henry, I wanted to say that...

And once the thing was fixed,

there was no need to talk about it.

There was no need to make a fuss.

I miss those days.
