IN ALL TRIBAL CULTURES, EVERY VILLAGE HAD A SENTINEL.

NOW, A SENTINEL IS CHOSEN

BECAUSE OF A GENETIC ADVANTAGE.

A SENSORY AWARENESS THAT CAN BE DEVELOPED

BEYOND NORMAL HUMANS.

YOUR TIME SPENT IN PERU HAS GOT TO BE CONNECTED

WITH WHAT'S HAPPENING TO YOU NOW.

I'VE GOT HUNDREDS OF DOCUMENTED CASES

OF 1 OR 2 HYPERACTIVE SENSES,

BUT NOT ONE SINGLE SUBJECT WITH ALL 5.

YOU COULD BE THE REAL THING.

FLOYD, GET BACK IN THE CAR.

I'LL TAKE CARE OF THAT.

SO YOU THINK HE'S GOING TO EAT IT?

SIT DOWN. OF COURSE YOU DO, OF COURSE YOU DO.

IT DOESN'T MATTER, DOES IT?

YOU'VE SEEN THIS THING, WHAT, 35 TIMES?

YOU COULD WATCH IT ANOTHER 35,

BUT AS SOON AS I PUT LASSIE ON, YOU ARE GONE.

YOU'RE GONE. WHY IS THAT?

YOU COVER THE FRONT,

YOU TAKE THE OTHER SIDE.

EVEN THOUGH THEY DON'T SHOW "R" RATED MOVIES.

HOLD THAT THOUGHT, ALL RIGHT?

HELLO. EH, IT'S ELLISON.

OH, GREAT, MAN. I'LL LET YOU IN.

I GOT YOUR VIDEO CAMERA. OH, GREAT, GREAT.

NOT SO FAST, YOU JUST PAY ATTENTION.

I GOT THIS CAMERA FROM CAROLYN'S DEPARTMENT. I BORROWED IT.

ANYTHING HAPPENS TO IT, MY ASS IS ON THE LINE.

ALL RIGHT.

WHO'S THIS?

LARRY. LARRY, JIM. JIM, LARRY.

I MET A COUPLE OF THESE GUYS IN THE JUNGLE.

DON'T STARE, MAN. THEY TAKE THAT AS A SIGN OF AGGRESSION.

RIGHT, RIGHT.

ALL RIGHT, WHERE'S YOUR SUBJECT MATTER?

LARRY.

I THOUGHT THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SOME BIG RESEARCH PROJECT.

OH, IT IS, IT IS. YOU SEE, I'M DOING A PAPER

ON THE SHORT-TERM EFFECTS OF CONCENTRATED TELEVISION VIOLENCE ON PRIMATES.

HOW MANY CHIMPS DO YOU KNOW THAT WATCH TV?

THIS ISN'T A CHIMPANZEE. IT'S A BARBARY APE.

AND THE BEHAVIORAL PATTERN OF A BARBARY APE IS, LIKE,

REMARKABLY SIMILAR TO A HUMAN BEING.

MAYBE IN YOUR FAMILY TREE.

WHAT WAS THAT? WAS THAT A MOUSETRAP?

OH, NO, NO, NO. MICE ARE, LIKE, SMALL AND CUTE,

BUT THESE... BIG-ASS...

HOW CAN YOU LIVE LIKE THIS?

WHERE ELSE AM I GOING TO GET 10,000 SQUARE FEET

FOR $850 A MONTH?

IT'S LERON AND JASON. WHAT ARE THEY DOING HERE?

BETTER LET 'EM IN.

YOU GUYS AIN'T WORKING TONIGHT.

YOU COVER THE FRONT, YOU TAKE THE OTHER SIDE.

HEY, BUDDY, HOW ABOUT A CAN OF BEER OR SOMETHING?

OH YEAH, SURE. THEY'RE IN THE FRIDGE.

I'LL TAKE ONE. THAT'S GREAT.

THEY'RE IN THE FRIDGE.

LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!

TURN THAT DOWN, QUICK.

WHAT IS IT?

I THOUGHT I HEARD GUNFIRE. IT'S JUST THE T.V., MAN.

GET DOWN!

IT LOOKS LIKE WHEN THE GASOLINE WENT UP

THE CHEMICAL PRECURSOR EXPLODED, TOO.

THAT'S WHAT TORE OUT THE WALL.

YOU KNOW, WITH ALL THE STUFF THEY HAD AROUND HERE, MAN,

THIS WAS A MAJOR DRUG LAB.

GOOD WORK, TAGGERT. HMM.

JUST ONE THING MISSING. WHAT?

THE DRUGS.

JIM!

DOWN HERE.

I'VE ASKED THE ANTI-GANG UNIT TO GET INVOLVED IN THIS.

I THINK YOU KNOW LIEUTENANT WILLIAMS HERE.

DETECTIVE ELLISON, CAPTAIN TAGGERT.

TAGGERT. YEAH. YEAH.

OH, YEAH, I THINK WE WORKED THAT CASE LAST YEAR TOGETHER.

I THOUGHT YOU GAVE UP SMOKING.

I DID.

PROBLEM IS, SMOKING DIDN'T GIVE UP ON ME.

THIS HERE IS EARL GAINES, ONE OF THE BEST MEN IN WILLIAMS' UNIT.

GAINES. HEY.

I REMEMBER THAT GAME-WINNER YOU MADE AGAINST OREGON, '93.

IT WAS A HELL OF A CATCH.

YEAH, I HAD A FEW LUCKY PLAYS.

ALL RIGHT, WHAT DO YOU GOT, JIM?

WELL, SO FAR WE'VE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO I.D. 2 OF THE BODIES, UM,

MAURICE BROWN AND AN ELDRIDGE WARDELL.

THEY'RE BOTH KNOWN GANGBANGERS WITH EXTENSIVE RAP SHEETS.

AND THE OTHERS WE'RE NOT SURE OF YET.

BYRON WALKER, DARNELL DEVANE, AND VERNON SIMMS.

WHAT WAS THAT? BYRON WALKER, DARNELL DEVANE, AND VERNON SIMMS.

HOW DO YOU KNOW?

I HAD LOOK AT THE BODIES AS THEY WERE BEING LOADED INTO THE CORONER'S VAN.

THEY'RE ALL MEMBERS OF THE 357s.

SO YOU REALLY THINK THIS IS A 357 LAB?

NO DOUBT. SO WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT SOME PUNK WANNABE GANG HERE.

WAIT A MINUTE. THE 357s ARE BIG-TIME.

WHO'D BE CRAZY ENOUGH TO HIT THEM?

WHAT ABOUT THE DEUCES? NOT LIKELY.

BUT THE DEUCES ARE THEIR MAIN RIVALS.

THAT'S THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES THE MOST SENSE.

THERE'S BEEN A TRUCE BETWEEN DEUCES AND 357s FOR OVER A YEAR.

YEAH, WELL, TRUCES BREAK DOWN, EARL.

I THINK, WE WOULD HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT SOONER THAN THIS.

I'VE KNOWN THE DEUCES' LEADER, ANTOINE HOLLINS,

MOST OF MY LIFE.

HE MADE A PROMISE TO STOP THE KILLING.

IT'S HARD FOR ME TO BELIEVE HE WOULD JUST THROW THAT AWAY.

WELL, SOMEONE SURE AS HELL DID, HUH?

YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT ALL THE TIME YOU LIVED HERE

YOU NEVER ONCE SUSPECTED YOU LIVED NEXT DOOR TO AN ICE LAB?

OH, MAN. I...

I SWEAR THAT PLACE WAS DESERTED.

I MEAN, LAST WEEK I DID START TO HEAR SOME STRANGE NOISES

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT BUT, UH,

I COULD HAVE SWORN IT WAS JUST, LIKE, THE PLUMBING...

HEY, LARRY. LIKE,

YOU KNOW, THE RODENTS OR SOMETHING. I DON'T KNOW.

IS THIS ALL YOUR STUFF?

YEAH, IT'S MOST OF IT.

I'LL HAVE TO TRY TO COME BACK TOMORROW AND PUT THE REST OF THIS IN STORAGE.

MAN, THIS IS JUST THE WORST, WHERE AM I GOING TO STAY? I DON'T KNOW A HOTEL, HOSTEL.

SOMETHING, I DON'T KNOW. YEAH, THAT'S FINE FOR ME BUT WHAT ABOUT LARRY?

PUT HIM IN A KENNEL. YOU'LL FIGURE IT OUT. I CAN'T DO THAT TO HIM.

I MEAN, MY PROJECT'S DUE NEXT FRIDAY.

UNLESS... NO, NO, NO, NO.

DON'T, FORGET IT, JUST FORGET IT. COME, COME ON, JIM, JIM

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, MY BACK IS UP AGAINST THE WALL HERE, MAN,

I GOT NOWHERE ELSE TO GO.

I'M JUST NOT A BIG FAN OF ANIMALS IN CAGES.

BUT, UH, LARRY? LARRY, HE'S NO PROBLEM, MAN,

NO TROUBLE AT ALL. I MEAN, HE'S BEEN AROUND PEOPLE HIS WHOLE LIFE.

HECK, HE'S MORE HUMAN THAN MOST OF MY FRIENDS.

AND THAT'S SUPPOSED TO REASSURE ME? JIM, ONE WEEK.

ONE WEEK AND I PROMISE, I PROMISE, WE'LL BE OUT OF YOUR HAIR.

COME ON, ONE WEEK, MAN.

ALL RIGHT, LOOK, UH,

ONE WEEK. YOU OR THE GORILLA ACT UP AND YOU'RE OUT. ALL RIGHT?

HE'S NOT A GORILLA.

LOOK, YOU ALREADY HURT HIS FEELINGS.

YOU KNOW, I'M ALREADY BEGINNING TO REGRET THIS.

SO HOW ARE YOU AND YOUR, UH, ROOMMATES GETTING ALONG?

DON'T ASK.

HE MAKES ALL THESE WEIRD NOISES.

UH-HUH. HE EATS STUFF I CAN'T EVEN LOOK AT

AND HE SMELLS FUNNY. UH-HUH.

ALL HE DOES IS WATCH TV ALL DAY,

AND IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY.

YEAH.

THE MONKEY'S OK, THOUGH.

OH, UH,

YOUR GUEST OF HONOR JUST ARRIVED

MR. ANTOINE HOLLINS HIMSELF.

OH, UH, JIM.

LOOK, I'VE ASKED EARL GAINES TO SIT IN ON YOUR INTERROGATION OF ANTOINE.

OH, COME ON, SIMON. WHAT? YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT?

WELL, MAYBE GAINES WASN'T A GANGSTER HIMSELF,

BUT THE PERSONAL CONNECTION KIND OF BOTHERS ME.

I DON'T WANT HIM AROUND IN MY WAY

IF I CHOOSE TO HARDBALL HOLLINS.

COME ON, JIM, NOW, I BROUGHT EARL INTO THE DEPARTMENT.

HE MAY BE YOUNG AND GREEN, BUT HE'S GOT A LOT OF POTENTIAL.

FRANKLY, I THINK HE COULD LEARN A LOT FROM YOU.

ALL RIGHT, IT'S YOUR CALL.

EXCUSE ME, WHOSE IDEA WAS IT TO BRING ANTOINE HOLLINS IN FOR QUESTIONING?

ACTUALLY, IT WAS MINE.

FIGURES. LOOK, I KNOW HOLLINS.

I COULD HAVE TALKED TO HIM IN PRIVATE OUTSIDE THE STATION.

COME ON, YOU THINK HE'D ADMIT IT TO YOU IF THE DEUCES HIT THAT DRUG LAB?

SO INSTEAD YOU FIGURE SOME TIN-FLASHING WHITE MAN

IS GOING TO MAKE HIM ROLL OVER. YEAH, YOU KNOW, THAT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE.

LOOK, EARL, JIM AND I TALKED THIS OVER

AND I HAPPEN TO AGREE WITH HIM.

IT'S A BAD MOVE. WELL, THE DECISION'S BEEN MADE,

SO WHY DON'T YOU JUST LIVE WITH IT?

EXCUSE ME.

LOOK.

YOU'RE A GOOD COP, EARL,

BUT YOU NEED TO LEARN WHEN TO GIVE YOUR ATTITUDE AND YOUR MOUTH A REST.

DEUCES HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THOSE DUDES GETTING CAPPED.

THEY JUST ACCIDENTALLY SHOT EACH OTHER AND BLEW THE PLACE UP, HUH?

AFTER THEY ACCIDENTALLY FLUSHED

SEVERAL MILLION DOLLARS' WORTH OF ICE DOWN THE TOILET.

IF YOU WANT Q & A, YOU WATCH RICKI LAKE,

'CAUSE I AIN'T GOT A DAMN THING TO SAY TO YOU.

I'VE GOT 5 BODIES AND SOLID MOTIVE.

TALK TO ME NOW, HOLLINS,

'CAUSE WHEN THE EVIDENCE BACKS ME UP

YOU ARE LOOKING AT LIFE IN LOCKDOWN,

AND WE'RE NOT CUTTIN' A DEAL.

YOU WANT TO CHARGE ME, GO FOR IT.

OTHERWISE, GET OUT OF MY FACE.

OK.

IF YOU'RE INNOCENT,

YOU JUST TELL ME WHO DID IT.

YOU GOT THE BADGE, YOU FIGURE IT OUT.

I ALREADY DID, ANTOINE,

AND YOU'RE GOING DOWN.

OOH, YOU GOT ME SHAKING, DIE-HARD.

GET HIM OUT OF HERE.

COME ON, LET'S GO.

COME ON. SMOOTH WORK, DETECTIVE.

REAL SMOOTH WORK.

YO, 'TOINE. YO, CATCH.

HEY, WHAT'S UP WITH YOU? HEY.

HEY, PUNK, WHAT YOU PLAYING WITH? EASY, MAN. WE'RE COOL.

PUT IT BACK, EARL, BEFORE THEY CALL THE POLICE.

THANK YOU, HE AIN'T GOT NO MONEY.

I'LL BE BACK. HE AIN'T GONNA BE BACK.

HE WAS GONNA TAKE YOU OUT.

OH, HE WAS GONNA TAKE ME OUT! YEAH.

HOW'S GRANDMAMA?

SHE STILL COOKS SUPPER ON SUNDAY.

YOU KNOW, SHE KEEPS ASKING WHY YOU DON'T COME BY ANYMORE.

OH, MAN, THE HEAD OF THE DEUCES ROLLIN' UP THROUGH HER NEIGHBORHOOD

IN BROAD DAYLIGHT?

THAT AIN'T HAPPENING, BROTHER.

TALK TO ME, 'TOINE.

I KNOW THE DEUCES DIDN'T DO THAT LAB.

TELL THAT TO THE 357s.

HOW BAD IS IT?

IT'S ALL FALLIN' APART, MAN.

YOU KNOW HOW HARD I WORKED TO MAKE THAT TRUCE.

WHO DID THE HIT? YOU AIN'T GONNA BELIEVE ME.

WHY NOT? 'CAUSE IT WAS A COP.

STRAIGHT UP, MAN, SEE, THAT'S WHY I DIDN'T TELL YOU DOWN AT THE STATION.

WHO IS IT, 'TOINE?

I'M WORKING ON IT. GIVE ME A COUPLE DAYS AND I'LL HAVE A NAME FOR YOU.

ALL RIGHT.

IT'S GONNA GET BAD.

AND IT AIN'T LIKE THE HOOD. I CAN'T WATCH YOUR BACK NO MORE.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

SAY HELLO TO GRANDMAMA.

YOU TELL HER YOURSELF.

OO.

YEAH.

5:00, ALL RIGHT.

OK.

YO, DEUCE.

YEAH, YOU AIN'T SO WILD NOW, HUH?

POLICE! FREEZE! DROP YOUR WEAPON!

GET DOWN! GET DOWN! GET DOWN! GET DOWN! GET DOWN!

A COP. THAT'S WHAT HE SAID.

NO.

NO. I JUST DON'T BUY IT.

AND NEITHER DO I.

HOLLINS GIVE YOU A NAME? NO.

HEY, LOOK, WE ALL KNOW ANTOINE HOLLINS WAS A GANGBANGER.

BUT HE WAS MY BEST FRIEND.

NOW, THE TRUCE WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN HIS LIFE.

THERE IS NO WAY HE WOULD NEVER BETRAY IT.

LOOK, WE ALL HEAR WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, EARL,

BUT I THINK YOUR JUDGMENT IS A LITTLE CLOUDED. A FRIEND OF YOURS WAS KILLED.

I THINK YOU'RE TOO PERSONALLY INVOLVED.

THAT'S WHY I'VE HAD TO HAVE Y0U REASSIGNED.

REASSIGNED?

I'M SORRY, EARL.

YOU KNOW, I EXPECT TO BE SCREWED BY WHITE FOLKS.

OH, COME ON, EARL.

BUT I DIDN'T THINK I'D GET IT FROM A COUPLE OF BROTHERS. YOU ARE OUT OF LINE, GAINES.

LOOK THIS IS NOT ABOUT BLACK OR WHITE.

THIS IS ABOUT YOU DOING YOUR DAMN JOB, BROTHER.

I GUESS YOU HANG WITH THE SUITS LONG ENOUGH,

YOU FORGET WHERE YOU COME FROM.

HE'S A LITTLE HOT-HEADED.

I'LL TALK TO HIM.

DAMN!

DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY, SIMON.

HE'S JUST BLOWING OFF STEAM.

YEAH. I KNOW.

JUST HIT A LITTLE CLOSE TO HOME.

ALL RIGHT, PUT YOUR HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM, NOW! JIM, WAIT, WAIT, IT'S ME.

DON'T SHOOT. DON'T SHOOT, MAN.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE?

LARRY AND I, WE WERE WATCHING THE WILD BUNCH, RIGHT,

AND HE JUST... I OPENED THE CAGE TO GIVE HIM SOME POPCORN

AND HE JUST FREAKED OUT. HE, LIKE, TRIED TO BITE ME AND HE TOOK OFF AND...

I THOUGHT I HAD HIM UPSTAIRS IN THE CLOSET, BUT HE GAVE ME THE SLIP.

HE ESCAPED? YEAH.

OH, MAN, THAT'S GREAT. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I'M CALLING ANIMAL CONTROL. YEAH, ANIMAL CONTROL, PLEASE. OH, JIM, YOU CAN'T DO THAT.

HE COULD BE DANGEROUS. IF HE TRIED TO BITE YOU-- NO, HE'S NOT.

HE'S NOT. HE'S JUST A LITTLE... HE'S HIGH-STRUNG.

I MEAN, IT'S ALL THE TELEVISION VIOLENCE HE'S BEEN WATCHING.

HE JUST MUST HAVE SNAPPED. IF YOU TURN HIM OVER TO ANIMAL CONTROL,

I'M NOT GOING TO HAVE ENOUGH TIME.

WELL, YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT IT SOONER.

NOW, YOU BETTER GO FIND HIM. AND FIRST, WARN THE NEIGHBORS. COME ON, OUT.

I'D LIKE TO REPORT A LOST BARBARY APE.

NO, HE'S NOT A GORILLA, HE'S AN APE.

PERMIT?

COME AND GET IT!

EGGS ARE ALMOST DONE, SCRAMBLED FIRM.

JUST THE WAY YOU LIKE THEM, RIGHT?

GOOD MORNING. HAVE A SEAT, MAN.

IF YOU THINK THIS LITTLE COURTSHIP RITUAL HERE

IS GOING TO CHANGE MY MIND ABOUT THROWING YOUR BUTT OUT OF HERE...

NO, NO, NO, NO.

IF LARRY CAN SURVIVE OUT THERE WITHOUT A ROOF OVER HIS HEAD,

I'M-- I'M SURE THAT I CAN, TOO.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE PANICKED ABOUT YOUR PROJECT. WHAT HAPPENED?

WELL, I WAS.

THEN I CALLED THE GRANTS OFFICE

IN ORDER TO GET AN EXTENSION

AND IT TURNS OUT THAT THE DEPARTMENT CHAIRMAN

HAS BEEN CALLED OUT OF TOWN FOR 2 WEEKS.

SO I HAVE AMPLE TIME TO PROCURE MYSELF A NEW SUBJECT.

I DON'T KNOW.

I'M THINKING SOMETHING SMALL, SWEET.

MAYBE A NICE ORANGUTAN, SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOUR OLD SUBJECT?

WHO, LARRY? I DON'T KNOW.

ANIMAL CONTROL'S STILL LOOKING FOR HIM,

AND UNTIL THEY FIND HIM...

WELL, I'M ALL YOURS, LITTLE BUDDY.

WELL, THAT'S A VERY GENEROUS OFFER,

BUT I THINK YOU'D BE A LITTLE

IN OVER YOUR HEAD.

YOU KNOW, JIM,

A COUPLE YEARS AGO, I DID AN EXTENSIVE STUDY ON TRIBAL WARRIORS,

WHO SHARE REMARKABLY SIMILAR BEHAVIORAL PATTERNS TO AMERICAN STREET GANGS.

YOU KNOW, THESE DAYS, WITH A COMMENT LIKE THAT, PEOPLE COULD LOSE THEIR JOBS.

JIM, THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RACE, MAN.

THIS IS ABOUT DOMINANCE AND SUBMISSION OF SUBGROUPS.

AS A MATTER OF FACT, A COLLEAGUE OF MINE PREDICTED THE OUTCOME

OF A KEY U.S. SENATE VOTE LAST YEAR

BASED ON THIS SAME MODEL.

IT'S SIMPLE, REALLY, ONCE YOU THINK ABOUT IT.

IN ALL MALE-DOMINATED, POWER-BASED SUBGROUPS

ANTAGONISTIC ACTION BY ONE GROUP

IS USUALLY MET WITH EQUAL TO OR GREATER ANTAGONISTIC ACTION BY ANOTHER.

MEANING WHAT?

MEANING THAT NOW THAT THE DEUCES THINK THAT THE 357s KILLED ANTOINE,

THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO RETALIATE.

THEIR CODE OF HONORS WILL DEMAND IT.

SO ESCALATION IS INEVITABLE.

UNLESS I CAN PROVE TO ONE GROUP

THAT THE OTHER GROUP IS INNOCENT.

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DO.

OH, WHOA, OK, GOOD, GOOD, GOOD.

HEY, NOW, YOU GUYS, REMEMBER WHAT I TOLD YOU.

YOU WATCH ME, NOT THE Q.B. ALL RIGHT?

I'LL BURN YOU EVERY TIME.

NO, NO, NO. YOU KNOW THE RULES.

YOU WANT TO PLAY FLAG, YOU DON'T WEAR THE RAG.

BUT, EARL... I--I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT.

DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT. GIVE ME THIS THING. TAKE THIS THING OFF.

HEY, YO, GUYS!

NO COLORS ON THE FIELD, MAN.

HUDDLE UP. LET'S GO. LET'S GO, HUDDLE UP.

I'LL TELL YOU SOMETHING, YOU GUYS GO AHEAD AND RUN A PLAY. I'LL BE RIGHT BACK, OK?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I'M NOT YOUR ENEMY, MAN,

AND NEITHER IS SIMON BANKS.

SO MAYBE WE COULD TALK, COP TO COP.

I JUST NEED A FEW MINUTES WITH YOU.

YEAH, OK.

YO, COREY.

RUN THEM THROUGH THE PASSING DRILL TILL I GET BACK.

YOU FEEL LIKE WALKING?

YEAH.

TELL ME ABOUT ANTOINE HOLLINS.

WE GREW UP TOGETHER.

HE KNEW THAT PLAYING BALL WAS MY TICKET OUT,

SO HE SAW TO IT NOBODY MESSED WITH ME.

HE EVEN MADE SURE I HIT THE BOOKS.

AFTER MY KNEE BLEW OUT,

CAME HOME, QUIT SCHOOL.

HUNG OUT A COUPLE WEEKS BLOWING CRACK, FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF.

BY THAT TIME, 'TOINE WAS PRETTY STRAIGHT,

LOOKING FOR A WAY TO MAKE THINGS BETTER.

WHEN HE SAW WHAT I WAS MESSING WITH,

HE CLEANED ME UP,

DROVE ME BACK TO SCHOOL.

HE SAID IF I CAME HOME WITHOUT A DEGREE,

HE'LL KILL ME.

LAST COUPLE YEARS, ALL HE TALKED ABOUT

WAS HOW AMERICA AIN'T GOING NO FURTHER

THAN ITS YOUNG BLACK MEN CAN HELP CARRY IT.

EITHER THAT, OR WE ALL GO DOWN TOGETHER.

YEAH.

YOU KNOW, THE OTHER DAY WHEN I BROUGHT HOLLINS IN FOR QUESTIONING,

YOU WERE RIGHT.

I'M SORRY, I--I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED.

NO ARGUMENT THERE,

BUT I WAS OUT OF LINE.

YOU THINK HOLLINS WAS TELLING THE TRUTH

THAT A COP WAS INVOLVED

IN THE-- IN THE HIT ON THE DRUG LAB?

'TOINE WAS NO SAINT, BUT HE NEVER LIED TO ME.

ALL RIGHT. WELL, IF THE DEUCES DID NOT PUT THE HIT ON THE DRUG LAB,

AND THE 357s DIDN'T KILL ANTOINE,

THEN WE GOTTA FIND OUT WHO DID

OR WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A MAJOR GANG WAR ON OUR HANDS.

"WE?" I'M OFF THE CASE, REMEMBER?

ALL I'M SAYING IS THAT IF YOU FIND OUT ANYTHING

OR HEAR ANYTHING, I'D APPRECIATE THE INFORMATION.

I'LL KEEP THAT IN MIND...

DIE-HARD.

YOU WANTED TO SEE ME? YEAH. COME ON IN.

GET THE DOOR, WILL YOU?

NOW, WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO HEAR HAS TO STAY IN THIS ROOM.

I KNOW YOU UNDERSTAND THAT.

FORENSICS JUST FINISHED THE TESTS

ON THOSE SLUGS TAKEN FROM THE 2 GANGBANGERS KILLED IN THAT DRUG LAB.

THEY MATCH 2 WEAPONS THAT WERE SUPPOSED TO BE IN EVIDENCE LOCKUP.

BOTH WEAPONS DISAPPEARED THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY,

SOMETIME BETWEEN 3:00 P.M. AND MIDNIGHT.

NOW, THERE ARE ONLY 3 OFFICERS WHO SIGNED INTO THE LOCKUP CAGE

DURING THAT TIME.

WE CHECKED ON 2 OF THEM AND THEY CAME UP CLEAN.

THE THIRD ONE WAS EARL GAINES.

GAINES!

GAINES!

OPEN UP! WE HAVE A WARRANT!

WILLIAMS, LOOK, I KNOW GAINES HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HARD-ASS,

BUT HE'S STRAIGHT-UP.

WE'RE WASTING OUR TIME HERE. YEAH, WELL, I HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT.

BREAK IT DOWN.

GET OUT OF MY WAY, MAN. I GOT A CALL MY GRANDMA'S SICK.

HEY, LOOK, MAN. GRANDMA'S FINE. WE JUST WANTED TO TALK.

ABOUT WHAT? ABOUT YOUR SITUATION.

ANTOINE'S HISTORY. PRETTY SOON THE DEUCES GONNA BE HISTORY, TOO,

OFFICER GAINES. THAT'S ME, MAN.

YOU TURNED YOUR BACK ON YOUR OWN. YEAH.

BUT NOW YOUR COP FRIENDS THINK

YOU DIRTY.

THAT'S RIGHT. AIN'T NOBODY AROUND

TO COVER YOUR ASS NO MORE.

YOU KEEP SNOOPING AROUND THE HOOD AND, UH, SOMEBODY GOING TO BREAK DOWN

AND BLOW YOUR ASS OVER TO THE NEXT BLOCK.

SO MY ADVICE IS...

DISAPPEAR.

I AIN'T GOING NOWHERE, HOMEBOY,

AND ANY TIME YOU AND YOUR GANGSTA-FOOL FRIENDS THINK

YOU CAN MAKE ME DO A GHOST,

THEN COME ON DOWN.

YOU WANT TO DO IT NOW, HUH?

YOU WANT TO DO IT NOW?

THEN GO FOR IT, "G"!

DODGE CITY, BLOOD.

YOUR CALL.

WE'LL TALK AGAIN, LERON.

WE'LL TALK AGAIN.

COUNT ON IT.

COME ON, LIEUTENANT, HUH?

WHAT'S THE MATTER? SMOKE BOTHER YOU?

I JUST HAVE A PRETTY SENSITIVE NOSE.

CAPTAIN, WE FOUND THESE IN THE BEDROOM.

EASY WITH THAT, HUH?

I ALWAYS KNEW GAINES WAS INVOLVED IN GANGS,

BUT I THOUGHT HE WAS CLEAN.

I DON'T KNOW, SIMON. DOESN'T IT SEEM KIND OF DUMB TO YOU?

A STASH OF DRUGS AND A MURDER WEAPON IN YOUR HOUSE?

WHO WOULD GO TO THE TROUBLE OF FRAMING HIM? I DON'T KNOW.

LOOK, JUST BECAUSE GAINES IS A COP, THAT DOESN'T MEAN I CAN TREAT HIM ANY DIFFERENT.

I HAVE TO TREAT HIM LIKE ANY OTHER SUSPECT.

I UNDERSTAND THAT. IT JUST SEEMS TO ME--

IF HE'S INNOCENT, HE'LL GET HIS DAY IN COURT.

IF HE'S GUILTY,

THE SOONER WE GET HIS ASS OFF THE STREETS THE BETTER.

HOW YOU DOING, TYRELL?

YO, YOU WANT TO TALK, MAN, MAKE IT FAST, ALL RIGHT?

DON'T LOOK GOOD FOR THE LEADER OF THE 357s TO BE CHATTING WITH NO COP.

NOW, YOUR MESSAGE SAID, WHAT, YOU HAD SOME IMPORTANT INFORMATION

ABOUT MY CREW GETTING CAPPED AT THE WAREHOUSE?

I LIED. YOU LIED.

YEAH, THE TRUTH IS,

I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THE KILLINGS.

AND I FIGURED IF I CAME RIGHT OUT WITH IT, YOU'D TELL ME TO GO TO HELL.

NO QUESTION. WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT I'M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW, MAN. GO TO HELL.

YOU KNOW, THAT'S SOME VERY FRAGRANT WEED

YOU HAVE IN YOUR TRUNK HERE.

IT'S HONDURAN RED, RIGHT?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU TALKING ABOUT, MAN.

COME ON, MAN, I SMELLED IT FROM OVER THERE.

JACK, YOU BUGGIN'.

NO, YOU'RE BUGGING. YOU'RE GETTING WORRIED, HUH? 'CAUSE I CAN SMELL THAT, TOO.

HOLD ON A SECOND.

THIS IS DETECTIVE ELLISON.

HAVE THE CANINE SQUAD STAND BY-- ALL RIGHT, HOLD UP, MAN.

WHAT IS IT THAT YOU WANT?

I WANNA KNOW WHO KILLED ANTOINE HOLLINS.

I'M SURE YOU DO, BUT THE 357s IS CLEAN ON THAT.

THE 357s HAD THE MOST REASON. THE DEUCES HIT YOUR DRUG LAB.

WHAT DRUG LAB?

THIS IS ELLISON, AGAIN. BRING THE DOGS IN.

BRING THE DOGS IN. ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT, MAN. DAMN.

ALL RIGHT, HOLD UP, HOLD UP.

HERE IT IS, OK? STRAIGHT-UP.

THE DAY AFTER THE HIT, RIGHT?

ANTOINE COMES AND HE'S, LIKE, HIM AND THE DEUCES

AIN'T HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT,

AND HE ASKED ME FOR A WEEK SO HE COULD FIND OUT WHO REALLY DID IT.

AND YOU BELIEVED HIM.

I CAN'T SAY IF I DID OR IF I DIDN'T, MAN,

BUT I DEFINITELY GAVE HIM THAT WEEK, THOUGH. YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

'CAUSE A GANG WAR DON'T DO NOTHING BUT KILL A WHOLE LOT OF BROTHERS

AND BRING DOWN A WHOLE LOT OF HEAT.

I'M JUST GONNA GIVE YOU THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT.

MAYBE YOU DIDN'T PUT THE HIT ON HOLLINS,

BUT MAYBE ONE OF YOUR CREW WENT OUT AND DID IT ON HIS OWN.

YOU CRAZY, MAN?

NONE OF MY CREW WOULD EVER MAKE A MOVE LIKE THAT WITHOUT MY PERMISSION.

LOOK, TYRELL,

I THINK HOLLINS WAS TELLING THE TRUTH.

MAYBE SOMEBODY'S TRYING TO PLAY THE 357s

AND THE DEUCES OFF AGAINST EACH OTHER.

DO ME A FAVOR AND GIVE ME THE SAME WEEK YOU GAVE ANTOINE.

CAN'T DO THAT, MAN.

IF IT IS SOMEBODY ELSE,

YOU GOING TO LET THEM PLAY YOU LIKE A PUPPET, HUH?

MAKE YOU AND YOUR CREW LOOK LIKE A BUNCH OF FOOLS?

ALL RIGHT.

I'LL HOLD OFF FOR 48 HOURS,

THAT'S IF THE DEUCES DON'T MAKE A MOVE. BUT CHECK IT,

IF THEY DO,

THE STREET'S GONNA RUN RED, KID.

ALL RIGHT.

ELLISON.

IT'S EARL. WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?

AROUND. I SAW THE LITTLE COP PARTY AT MY PLACE. WHAT'D THEY FIND?

ICE AND ONE OF THE GUNS USED IN THE DRUG LAB HIT.

IT WAS STOLEN FROM EVIDENCE LOCKUP.

IT'S A SETUP.

YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW THAT.

MAN, YOU'VE GOTTA COME IN.

FORGET IT.

BANKS IS A STRAIGHT-SHOOTER. HE'S GONNA MAKE SURE YOU'RE PROTECTED.

I'LL TAKE MY CHANCES ON THE STREETS.

COME ON, EARL, YOU'VE GOT TO TRUST SOMEBODY.

I NEED A FAVOR, FIRST. THEN WE'LL TALK.

I NEED SOMEONE TO LOOK AFTER MY GRANDMAMA.

SHE'S ALL ALONE AND SHE'S NEARLY BLIND.

GOING SOMEWHERE? SOCIAL SERVICES.

HEY, THAT'S GOVERNMENT PROPERTY...

NEVER MIND.

WHOSE WELFARE YOU TAKING AWAY?

OH, NO, NO, ON THE CONTRARY.

SEE, THERE'S ACTUALLY SEVERAL RESIDENTS IN THIS BUILDING

WHO HAVE HAD THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY CHECKS UNDERPAID,

AND I JUST NEED TO GO IN AND FILL OUT SOME PAPERWORK

IN ORDER TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION.

SO YOU THE RECTIFIER, IS THAT IT?

YEAH. THAT'S EXACTLY IT.

GO ON.

THAT'S NICE. VERY NICE. THANKS. EXCUSE ME.

MS. LACROIX?

I NEED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT YOUR GRANDSON. EARL GAINES?

HI. UM, I'M BLAIR SANDBURG.

YOU THE POLICE?

NO. NO, JUST A FRIEND.

THANKS.

UH,

LOOK, WE REALLY NEED TO GET YOU OUT OF HERE.

THIS IS MY HOME. I AIN'T LEAVING IT.

I DON'T EXACTLY KNOW HOW TO SAY THIS BUT...

IT MAY NOT BE SAFE.

IT AIN'T SAFE OUT THERE, NEITHER.

NOW, I AIN'T BEEN OUT OF HERE IN 2 YEARS,

EXCEPT TO VISIT MY NEIGHBORS OR CLEAN UP THE HALLWAY,

AND I AIN'T ABOUT TO START NOW.

MA'AM, YOU ARE NOT LISTENING TO ME.

YOU'RE IN DANGER.

OF WHAT?

THOSE CHILDREN WITH THEIR LOUD MUSIC

AND THEIR GUNS?

THEY DON'T WORRY ME NONE.

THAT'S GREAT.

UM, YOU MIND IF I USE YOUR PHONE?

HELP YOURSELF.

THANKS.

ELLISON.

YEAH, HI. IT'S ME, UM,

WE GOT A LITTLE PROBLEM HERE. SHE WON'T LEAVE.

NOW, LOOK, I WANT YOU OUT OF THERE, SANDBURG.

I'LL PUT A SURVEILLANCE TEAM OUTSIDE, OK?

NO, I DON'T-- I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT, IT'S NOT SAFE.

I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE HER ALONE.

YOU'RE NOT A COP!

I KNOW,

BUT I CAN HANDLE THIS. TRUST ME.

THE FIRST SIGN OF TROUBLE,

I PROMISE YOU I'LL GIVE YOU A CALL, OK?

I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER.

THERE'S SOMETHING THAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND, THOUGH, UH.

I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE FAMILY, SO,

SO WHY DO YOU LIVE ALONE

AND ESPECIALLY IN A NEIGHBORHOOD LIKE THIS?

JUST 'CAUSE I LIVE BY MY LONESOME DON'T MEAN I'M ALONE.

FOLKS IN THIS BUILDING WATCH OUT FOR EACH OTHER.

THESE, UH,

THESE NEIGHBORS OF YOURS. DO YOU THINK THAT WE COULD CALL A MEETING?

YOU GOT TO BE MORE CAREFUL, JASON.

THE STREETS ARE GETTING REAL DANGEROUS THESE DAYS.

I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU AND I COULD HAVE A LITTLE TALK.

YOU KNOW, BROTHER TO BROTHER?

I WANT TO TALK ABOUT LERON AND THAT LITTLE SCAR OF HIS.

TURN AROUND RIGHT THERE.

NOW, I KNOW LERON KILLED ANTOINE

AND YOU'RE HIS PARTNER,

SO I FIGURE YOU WERE DRIVING.

ONLY THING, WHO PUT YOU UP TO IT?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

YOU'RE WRONG, MAN!

ONE WAY OR THE OTHER, YOU'RE GOING TO TELL ME.

YO, THERE HE IS. COME ON.

HE'S GONE.

HEY, WE GOT A PROBLEM.

JASON'S IN THE HOSPITAL.

I KNOW. THEY JUST BROUGHT HIM OUT OF SURGERY.

IT'S THAT CHUMP EARL GAINES THAT SHOT HIM.

MAN, I'M GOING TO ENJOY PUMPING THAT SUCKER FULL OF BULLETS.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT HIM. BETWEEN THE COPS AND THE 357s,

HE'LL BE DEAD BY SUNRISE. NOW WHERE IS THE STUFF?

MAN, IT'S OVER HERE.

YO, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT JASON?

WE GOT NO CHOICE.

HE TALKS, WE'RE FINISHED.

YEAH, WELL, I HATE TO CAP A FRIEND, BUT, UH,

A BROTHER GOT TO LOOK OUT FOR HIS OWN FIRST.

EXACTLY RIGHT, LERON,

EXACTLY RIGHT.

DR. LITWAK TO ROOM 402. DR. LITWAK TO ROOM 402.

I'M LOOKING FOR JASON GARVEY'S ROOM.

WHO ARE YOU?

I'M DETECTIVE ELLISON.

THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A UNIFORMED COP ON DUTY AT THE DOOR.

NOW, WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?

HE WENT DOWN TO THE MORGUE WITH THE BODY.

WHAT BODY? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? JASON GARVEY.

HE CAME OUT OF SURGERY, HE WAS FINE.

YOUR COP FRIEND WENT TO GET A COFFEE FROM THE MACHINE.

WHILE HE WAS GONE HE STOPPED BREATHING.

HO-- COULD YOU STOP THAT, PLEASE,

A-A-AND GIVE ME A COUPLE MINUTES TO EXAMINE THE ROOM?

OK, SUIT YOURSELF.

TURKISH CIGARETTES.

ELLISON.

IT'S EARL.

WHERE ARE YOU, MAN? YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO CALL ME HOURS AGO.

I GOT A LITTLE BUSY. BUSY?

DOING WHAT? SHOOTING JASON GARVEY?

I DIDN'T SHOOT NOBODY.

HEY, MAN, WE'VE GOT TO TALK. RIGHT NOW.

FOR WHAT? SO YOU CAN TURN ME IN?

YO, WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF OPTIONS MAN. NOW...

WHERE CAN WE MEET?

YO, WHAT'S UP? ANY NEWS ON GAINES?

NO, MAN. IT'S LIKE HE CRAWLED INTO A HOLE, MAN.

NO, YOU KNOW WHAT? FORGET THIS, MAN. GO PICK UP THAT OLD LADY,

ALL RIGHT? GO PICK HER UP.

'CAUSE ONCE WE GOT HER, HE GOING TO COME TO US.

GO AHEAD, MAN.

♪ NOW, I'VE BEEN ♪

♪ WELL-WORN ♪

YO, MRS. LACROIX!

I GOT TO TALK TO YOU. IT'S ABOUT YOUR BOY, EARL.

I--I--I'LL GET THIS. YOU OK?

IF WORST COMES TO WORST, I'LL BE HEARING MY LATE HUSBAND

SING THE BLUES AGAIN.

LET'S-- LET'S HOPE NOT.

YO, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO COME WITH US, MA'AM.

WE'RE GOING TO TAKE YOU TO HIM.

I KNOW THAT VOICE.

THAT'S SYLVIA HAYES' BOY, MARCUS.

COME ON, WE AIN'T GOT MUCH TIME.

JUST A MINUTE.

I NEED TO TAKE MY MEDICINE.

HEY, WHAT'S GOING-- BACK OFF.

NOW, I'M WARNING YOU...

GENTLEMEN, I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET

THE ROOSEVELT GARDEN SAFETY COMMITTEE.

YEAH.

OUT OF MY WAY, YOU OLD FOOL.

YOU GOING TO SHOOT ME? YOU GOING TO SHOOT ALL OF US?

THAT'S RIGHT, YEAH.

NO, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

WE'RE NOT SCARED OF YOU, MARCUS HAYES.

WE AIN'T SCARED OF YOUR PUNK FRIENDS, NEITHER.

NOW, GET! GET!

GET OUT OF HERE, BOYS.

OH, CONGRATULATIONS, EVERYBODY.

YEAH, YEAH.

YOU ALL DID IT!

WATCH OUT, HONEY,

I'M IN A FEISTY MOOD.

ELLISON.

I HAD TO MAKE SURE YOU WEREN'T BEING WATCHED.

HEY, LISTEN, I KNOW YOU'RE TAKING A CHANCE AND I'M GRATEFUL.

SO WHAT DID YOU WANT TO MEET ABOUT?

TELL ME ABOUT GARVEY.

WE WERE FIGHTING IN THIS ALLEY.

MY GUN WENT FLYING.

SOMEBODY PICKED IT UP AND SHOT HIM.

GARVEY WENT TO THE HOSPITAL.

HE DIED AFTER SURGERY.

NOW, EARL,

GARVEY SHOULD HAVE SURVIVED THAT WOUND.

I THINK HE WAS MURDERED IN THE RECOVERY WARD BY LIEUTENANT WILLIAMS.

OH, MAN, WILLIAMS.

OK, BUT WHY?

I DON'T KNOW. I'M TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT.

COULD-- COULD WILLIAMS BE TIED TO ANTOINE'S DEATH?

LERON MAXWELL AND JASON GARVEY KILLED ANTOINE.

THEY ALSO PLANTED THE ICE AND THE GUNS AT MY PLACE.

BUT TYRELL LANG SWORE TO ME THE 357s WERE CLEAN ON THE HOLLINS MURDER.

MAYBE LERON AND JASON WERE WORKIN' ON A RENEGADE MOVE.

ANTOINE SAID THERE WAS A DIRTY COP WORKING FOR THE 357s.

HE MUST HAVE MEANT WILLIAMS. OK.

SO WILLIAMS TALKS LERON AND JASON INTO HITTING THEIR OWN DRUG LAB, RIGHT?

SO, THEY--THEY STEAL THE ICE AND THEY SPLIT THE PROFITS,

AND THEN THEY GET THE DEUCES TO TAKE THE FALL.

RIGHT, AND ONCE ANTOINE GOT ONTO THE DEAL,

WILLIAMS HAD LERON AND JASON KILL HIM

AND IT MAKES IT LOOK LIKE A 357 GET-BACK.

THAT'S RIGHT, NOW, WILLIAMS KNOWS THAT ANTOINE TALKED TO YOU.

SO HE'S GETTIN' A LITTLE NERVOUS.

HE FRAMES YOU TO GET YOU OUT OF THE WAY.

ALL RIGHT, IT ALL LAYS OUT EXCEPT FOR ONE THING. WHY KILL JASON GARVEY?

FEAR AND GREED.

JASON MIGHT SPILL TO THE POLICE.

AND WITH JASON OUT OF THE WAY,

THERE'S MORE PROFIT.

JIM, ONE THING. I KNOW ALL ABOUT WILLIAMS.

HE'S A METHODICAL SON OF A BITCH.

THAT MEANS LERON MAXWELL COULD BE NEXT

AND HE'S THE ONLY GANGSTER WE COULD SWEAT TO GET THE TRUTH FROM.

YEAH, THIS IS DETECTIVE ELLISON.

I NEED AN ALL-POINTS ON LERON MAXWELL.

HE'S A MEMBER OF THE 357s STREET GANG.

WHERE?

GOT IT. THANKS.

LERON'S DEAD. HE'S BEEN SHOT.

THEY GOT THE WEAPON AT THE SCENE

AND THEY CALLED IN THE SERIAL NUMBER.

IT'S YOUR GUN.

OH, MAN...

COME ON, JIM, AT LEAST TELL ME WHAT ALL THIS SECRECY IS ABOUT.

I DON'T...

EARL, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? SIMON, SIMON.

PLEASE, COME ON. HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?

YOU'RE HARBORING A FUGITIVE.

WOULD YOU HAVE COME HERE IF I-- IF I TOLD YOU HE WAS HERE?

COME ON, EARL, YOU KNOW THE DRILL. UP AGAINST THE WALL.

SIMON, I'M BEING FRAMED.

I DON'T NEED TO HEAR THIS. SIMON, YOU KNOW ME. I'M NOT A MURDERER.

SIMON, WOULD YOU JUST LISTEN TO WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY? PLEASE?

ALL RIGHT, TALK FAST.

HERE'S LIEUTENANT WILLIAMS' PHONE RECORDS

FOR THE LAST 3 MONTHS.

THE ONES HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW ARE FOR LERON MAXWELL.

ORANGE IS JASON GARVEY.

WELL, THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH ALL THIS, GUYS,

IS THAT EVEN IF I BUY IT,

IT'S NOT GOING TO HOLD UP IN COURT.

NOW, WE NEED HARD EVIDENCE.

I KNOW, WE THINK WE GOT A WAY TO GET IT.

WILLIAMS STOLE $500,000 WORTH OF ICE,

BUT NONE OF IT'S SHOWED UP ON THE STREETS YET.

WHICH MEANS HE'S BEEN WAITING TO MOVE IT.

WAITING FOR WHAT?

WELL, THINK ABOUT IT. WILLIAMS WOULDN'T WANT TO SELL STOLEN ICE IN CASCADE.

NO, HE'D PROBABLY WANT TO DO IT OUT OF TOWN, OUT OF STATE.

RIGHT. MY FRIEND TRACKED THE OUT-OF-STATE CALLS.

THERE ARE SEVERAL TO A SAN FRANCISCO NUMBER,

AND THEY BELONG TO A JOHN MAGNUSON.

I CALLED A BUDDY WITH S.F.P.D.

JOHN MAGNUSON IS A MAJOR WEST COAST DRUG DEALER.

SO WE DID SOME NOSING AROUND, AND GUESS WHAT?

MAGNUSON IS DUE IN AT CASCADE THIS AFTERNOON.

HIS FLIGHT ARRIVES AT 4:00 P.M.

AND YOU THINK HE'S HERE TO BUY THE ICE?

THIS TIME OF YEAR, HE AIN'T COMING FOR THE SUNSHINE.

AIRPORT SECURITY SAYS MAGNUSON AND HIS PEOPLE

RENTED A DARK BLUE LINCOLN TOWN CAR.

THEY LEFT THE RENTAL LOT ABOUT 5 MINUTES AGO.

THAT'S HIM RIGHT THERE.

HOW CAN YOU SEE THAT FAR?

GOOD EYES.

2, THIS IS 1, WE'RE ON THE MOVE.

COPY THAT, NUMBER 1.

CHECK IT.

IT'S GOOD.

POLICE! THROW YOUR WEAPONS DOWN NOW!

GET BACK HERE, YOU SON OF A BITCH!

I'M GOING AFTER WILLIAMS.

SIMON, YOU GOT IT? YEAH, I GOT IT. TAKE OFF.

I NEED ALL AVAILABLE UNITS DOWN AT THE CONTAINER YARD,

SECOND AND MARITIME, NOW. ALL RIGHT, ON THE GROUND!

DROP YOUR GUNS, DOWN, NOW!

COME IN! COME IN!

HEY, STOP! HEY!

AW, DAMN!

HOW'D YOU MAKE THAT SHOT FROM WAY BACK THERE?

LIKE I SAID, GOOD EYES.

HEY, GRANDMA.

WHAT YOU BEEN UP TO?

BOY, YOU ALL SKIN AND BONES.

GOOD WORK, SANDBURG.

OH, NO, NO, IT WASN'T ME, JIM.

JIM, I WANT YOU TO MEET MS. LILA LACROIX.

AH, MS. LACROIX. I'VE HEARD SO MUCH ABOUT YOU.

JIM. YOUR GRANDSON'S A GOOD MAN.

I GOT YOUR MESSAGE.

STILL GOTTA CHECK IT OUT, THOUGH.

MAKE SURE YOU AIN'T TRYING TO SCAM ME. KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?

WE GOT TO GET THE 357s AND THE DEUCES BACK TO THE TABLE, TYRELL.

TOMORROW MORNING, BAPTIST HALL ON SEVENTH. ALL RIGHT?

WE'LL PUT THE GUNS DOWN, FOR NOW.

TOO SOON FOR ALL THAT, BROTHER.

PEACE.

YEAH, PEACE.

IT'S ALL RIGHT. IT'S COOL. YOU ALL RIGHT?

MR. SANDBURG. ELLISON.

I WANT YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS TO STAY FOR SUPPER.

OH, OF COURSE, OF COURSE, I'D LOVE TO, WE'D LOVE TO.

IF YOU DON'T SHE'LL WHACK YOU WITH HER SKILLET.

OH, I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW. I'VE SEEN THAT SKILLET, MAN. I DON'T...

I'D LIKE YOU TO STAY, TOO, SIMON.

I'D LOVE TO. THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEED.

ALL RIGHT, I'M ON MY WAY. THANKS.

I HATE TO BUST UP THE PARTY. WE'LL BE BACK IN A LITTLE WHILE,

BUT, UH, SOME BUSINESS HAS COME UP. LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

CALL ME, ALL RIGHT? ALL RIGHT.

LET'S GO.

THEY FOUND LARRY. WHERE?

THAT MINI KONG OF YOURS BUSTED BACK INTO MY APARTMENT

AND HE TRASHED IT AGAIN.

NOW ANIMAL CONTROL'S GOT THE PLACE SURROUNDED,

SO I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU HALF AN HOUR TO BAG HIM.

IF HE DOESN'T COME OUT WITH HIS HANDS UP,

WELL, THEN I CALL IN THE S.W.A.T. SNIPER.

DID THEY SAY WHAT HE WAS DOING?

HE WAS WATCHIN' T.V.

YOU'RE KIDDING ME.

WHAT PROGRAM?
