GET THEM UP! OPEN THAT DOOR!

DID YOU KNOW THAT HE WAS A CHILD WHEN YOU KILLED HIM?

HE'S NOT OLD ENOUGH TO DRIVE.

HE'S OLD ENOUGH TO KILL.

THOSE KIDS DIDN'T PLAN THAT ROBBERY.

THEY HAD A FAGIN...

YOU KNOW, A SCUMBALL

THAT MAKES THE KIDS DO HIS DIRTY WORK FOR HIM.

IF THE COPS CAN'T DO NOTHING TO US,

HOW COME THEY GOT YOU BUGGED?

ALL EXCEPT FOR ONE COP.

HUNTER. HE'S A DANGER TO US ALL,

ESPECIALLY TO YOU.

YOU MUST PROMISE

THAT NO MORE OF MY FRIENDS WILL BE HURT.

SHAKE HANDS WITH YOUR NEW FRIEND.

IF WE DON'T FIND EMILIO BEFORE THEY DO,

WE'VE KILLED ANOTHER KID.

HUNTER! NO!

WORKS FOR ME.

TALK ABOUT A LICENSE TO KILL.

YOU GOT IT.

YOU CAN ROB, YOU CAN STEAL,

YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU PLEASE, AND NOBODY...

NOBODY DO A DAMN THING TO STOP YOU.

WHY IS THAT?

WHAT MAKES YOU SO SPECIAL?

WHAT PUTS YOU OF ALL PEOPLE ABOVE THE LAW?

IS IT BECAUSE YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL? YOU'RE SUPER-SMART?

YOU'RE BORN RICH?

NO.

NO. I THINK YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL

AND SMART ENOUGH,

AND I'M MAKING YOU RICH

BECAUSE OF THAT SPECIAL THING YOU DO HAVE.

ALL OF YOU.

YOU ALL ARE JUVENILES.

AND THAT'S WHY THE LAW CAN'T TOUCH YOU.

AND NOW... ABOUT TOMORROW.

NOTHING CAN GO WRONG.

IF YOU GET BUSTED, NO SWEAT.

JUST REMEMBER THIS...

THE COPS MAY BE YOUR ENEMY, BUT THE LAW IS YOUR FRIEND.

THE LAW SAYS THAT BECAUSE YOU'RE UNDERAGE,

YOU'RE NOT HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT YOU DO.

SO NO MATTER WHAT GOES WRONG,

YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY THE PRICE.

MIGUEL, GETTING ALL OF THIS?

OH, SURE, GOT IT.

BUT YOU WERE SCARED THE FIRST TIME... SURE, YOU WERE.

LISTEN TO ME, ALL OF YOU.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT. YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO BE GOOD.

ALL YOU HAVE TO BE...

IS WHAT?

TELL ME.

COOL. COOL.

THAT'S ALL.

THAT'S ALL.

MIGUEL...

SHAKE HANDS WITH YOUR NEW FRIEND.

I DON'T THINK I'M READY FOR THAT, MAN.

SURE YOU ARE.

YOU CAN USE IT, TOO.

A MAN PULLS OUT A GUN ON YOU, YOU POP HIM.

AND THE LAW WILL STILL PROTECT YOU.

A KID LIKE YOU,

THE MOST YOU'LL GET IS 3 MONTHS IN THE COUNTRY.

YOU LOOK TALLER, ESE.

HOW DO YOU FEEL?

COOL.

COOL.

HEH HEH HEH HEH HEH.

COOL.

Boy: OK, REMEMBER WHAT EL GALLO SAID... STAY COOL.

GET THEM UP! OPEN THAT DOOR!

I'LL BLOW YOU AWAY!

OPEN UP! COME ON!

GET BACK! GET BACK!

THIS ALL OF IT, MAN?

THAT'S EVERYTHING, KID. THAT'S ALL THERE IS.

LET'S GO, COME ON!

LET'S GO! OUT OF HERE!

AAH!

UHH!

MIGUEL! MIGUEL!

NO, MIGUEL!

COME ON!

WHAT HAVE WE GOT, LUIS?

IT'S BAD. SEE FOR YOURSELF.

WHO IS IT?

UNIDENTIFIED. ONE OF THE THIEVES.

WAIT A MINUTE, THIS IS A KID.

HE CAN'T BE 15 YEARS OLD.

HE'S NOT OLD ENOUGH TO DRIVE.

HE'S OLD ENOUGH TO KILL.

WHAT'S THIS?

HEY, BILL, COME HERE.

CAN YOU GET A SHOT OF THIS FOR ME?

LIKE I SAID, THAT TATTOO BELONGS TO

A PEEWEE GANG IN EAST L.A.

CALLED LOS DIABLOS.

I PULLED THEIR FILE FROM THE GANG TASK FORCE.

HERE THEY ARE...

ALL 6 OF THEM.

ALL CHILDREN?

WELL, THEY DON'T THINK SO.

HERE'S THE BOY THAT WAS KILLED... MIGUEL MORALES.

HE'S BEEN IDENTIFIED BY HIS MOTHER AND HIS SISTER.

THIS IS HIS BROTHER EMILIO.

HE'S ONE YEAR YOUNGER.

AND YOU THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE BOYS

THAT PULLED THE HEIST, HUH?

PROBABLY.

LISTEN, UH...

I WANT TO WORK WITH YOU GUYS ON THIS.

WE WERE HOPING YOU WOULD.

MAYBE THEY'VE GONE TO MASS.

THEY'VE JUST LOST A SON.

NO. AS WE WERE DRIVING BY,

I SAW CANDLES BURNING IN THEIR FRONT ROOM.

YOU DON'T LEAVE CANDLES LIT, NOT IN THESE PLACES.

COME BACK, THE HOUSE IS BURNED DOWN,

MAYBE THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

HEY, THERE'S THE LITTLE BROTHER.

DRIVE THIS CRATE AROUND TO THE BACK.

YOU STAY HERE WITH LUIS. I'M GOING IN THERE.

UH... NO TECHNICALS, OK?

THERE ARE KIDS IN THERE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY TECHNICALS?

NO BIZARRE BEHAVIOR.

BIZARRE BEHAVIOR?

MM-HMM.

TITO. SANCHO.

Bartender: GO AHEAD.

WHAT, UH... WHAT'S UPSTAIRS?

NOTHING FOR YOU, ESE.

YOU RUNNING GIRLS IN HERE?

THERE'S NO GIRLS WORKING HERE.

WHAT'S UPSTAIRS?

OFFICE. APARTMENT.

THE BOSS. EL GALLO.

I SAW 5 KIDS GO UPSTAIRS.

EL GALLO'S FORMING A BASKETBALL TEAM.

5 SHORT KIDS.

A PEEWEE TEAM.

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME, ESE?

A SHORT TOMATO JUICE.

HEY.

THE CHECK-CASHING JOB WENT DOWN HARD.

WE HAD TO TAKE THE OLD MAN OUT.

AND WE LOST MIGUEL.

SO NOW, MORE THAN EVER,

WE GOT TO STAY VERY COOL,

ESPECIALLY YOU, EMILIO.

MIGUEL WAS YOUR BROTHER, AND BECAUSE OF HIM

THE COPS ARE GOING TO BE ALL OVER US.

BUT REMEMBER THIS...

WHEN THE OLD MAN KILLED MIGUEL,

IT WAS UMBERTO WHO TOOK THE OLD MAN OUT.

WHY?

BECAUSE MIGUEL WAS UMBERTO'S BROTHER, TOO.

AS WE ALL ARE.

WE'RE ALL BROTHERS.

YOU UNDERSTAND, EMILIO?

WE... ALL OF US... HAVE LOST A BROTHER.

HEY, MAN, I'M COOL.

AH, BUT YOU STILL CALLED FOR THIS MEETING.

WHY?

TO TALK ABOUT THE MONEY.

WE MADE A BIG SCORE.

YOU CAN THINK ABOUT THAT?

MIGUEL'S NOT EVEN BURIED.

IT'S... IT'S HIS SHARE I'M THINKING ABOUT.

WHAT HAPPENS TO THAT?

EMILIO...

MIGUEL WENT DOWN.

HIS SHARE GOES INTO THE POT.

I TAKE CARE OF IT FOR ALL OF YOU

UNTIL ALL OF YOU ARE 18.

THAT'S THE RULE.

BUT... IT'S MY MOM, MAN.

SHE WORKS HARD, CLEANING HOUSES.

YOU'RE GOING TO BE RICH.

YOU COULD LIVE WITH A HOOKER IN PUERTO VALLARTA.

NOW SHE LOST MIGUEL.

ALL OUR MONEY GOES INTO BURYING HIM.

IF I COULD JUST GIVE HER HIS SHARE...

ARE YOU STUPID?

DIDN'T YOU HEAR WHAT I SAID?

THE COPS ARE GOING TO BE ALL OVER US BECAUSE OF MIGUEL.

IF YOU GIVE YOUR MOTHER HIS SHARE,

THEY WON'T LET UP ON US,

BECAUSE THEY KNOW

THAT HIS BROTHER WAS IN ON THE HEIST...

ALL HIS BROTHERS.

YOU GOT THAT?

MAN, I'M SORRY, YOU KNOW?

HEY, I UNDERSTAND.

ANY MORE STUPID QUESTIONS?

HOW ABOUT SOMETHING FOR OUR POCKETS? 20 BUCKS.

NO. CARLOS BUZZED ME.

THERE'S A COP DOWNSTAIRS.

I DON'T WANT HIM WONDERING

WHERE YOU GOT THE MONEY, HUH?

I'LL GO DOWN WITH YOU SOON AS I GET A SHIRT.

I WANT TO SEE HOW YOU HANDLE YOURSELF

IF HE HASSLES YOU.

EMILIO, YOU COOL?

YEAH, COOL.

COOL, YEAH.

WHAT DID EMILIO WANT?

MONEY. IT RUNS IN THE BLOOD.

YOU KNOW, YOU AND YOUR KID BROTHER

HAVE THE SAME IDEAS.

DID HE WANT IT FOR MY MOTHER, AS I DO?

OH, SI. YEAH.

EMILIO'S A NICE BOY...

LIKE YOU'RE A NICE GIRL.

WELL, IF WE'RE SO NICE,

THEN WHY DON'T YOU WANT TO HELP US?

HEY, QUERIDA,

DON'T I DO ENOUGH FOR YOU?

TAKE YOU TO THE RACES, DANCING,

SHOW YOU A HELL OF A TIME?

YES, BUT WHEN I HAVE A REAL NEED

AT A TIME LIKE THIS

TO HELP MY MOTHER WITH THE...

SHH. HUSH.

WHEN THE COPS ARE NOT AROUND ASKING QUESTIONS,

I'LL PICK UP THE TAB FOR THE FUNERAL.

HEY, AND YOU CAN PAY ME ANY WAY YOU WANT.

EMILIO, HE WASN'T INVOLVED IN THE SHOOTING?

HE WASN'T THERE WITH MIGUEL?

NO.

HEY...

UH, I GOT TO GO DOWNSTAIRS.

YOU SHOULD BE WITH YOUR MOTHER.

TAKE THE BACK WAY.

ALL RIGHT.

HECTOR RIVAS.

HECTOR, IS THAT YOU?

IT'S EL GALLO NOW.

COME ON DOWN HERE, HECTOR.

HUNTER.

IF I HAD KNOWN IT WAS YOU WAITING HERE FOR ME...

I WASN'T WAITING HERE TO SEE YOU, HECTOR.

I STOPPED BY TO SEE LOS DIABLOS.

BUT NOW THAT I SEE YOU WITH THESE KIDS,

IT'S ALL STARTING TO FIT FOR ME.

HEY, VATO, YOU CAN'T COME BUSTING IN HERE...

HEY, CARLOS... STAY COOL.

THIS COP DOESN'T PLAY BY THE RULES.

WE'RE LUCKY HE DIDN'T MESS UP THE JOINT

JUST TO BE DOING SOMETHING.

YOU'RE VERY PERCEPTIVE, HECTOR.

YOU KIDS KNOW THAT 20 MILES FROM HERE,

4 KIDS ROBBED A CHECK-CASHING STORE?

ONE MAN WAS KILLED.

ONE OF THE BOYS WAS KILLED, ALSO.

THAT BOY CAME FROM THIS BARRIO.

NOW, THE STOLEN CAR THEY USED

WAS WIPED CLEAN OF FINGERPRINTS.

VERY PROFESSIONAL JOB.

JUST LIKE THE WAY YOU USED TO OPERATE

BEFORE I BUSTED YOU, RIGHT, HECTOR?

HEY, I DID MY TIME, HUNTER. I'M CLEAN.

THOSE KIDS DIDN'T PLAN THAT ROBBERY.

THEY HAD A FAGIN.

A WHAT?

THEY HAD A FAGIN...

YOU KNOW, A SCUMBALL

THAT MAKES THE KIDS DO HIS DIRTY WORK FOR HIM.

WHAT'S THE MATTER, HECTOR? DIDN'T YOU READ OLIVER TWIST?

SORRY. THAT'S ONE I MISSED.

HEY, CHECK THIS ACTION.

HEY, SUGAR!

HOW'D YOU LIKE ME TO CHECK YOUR PIPES?

HOW'D YOU LIKE MY BOYFRIEND TO SHUT OFF YOUR WATER?

EH, PLUMBER?

YOU ASKED FOR IT, SUGAR.

I WOULD'VE TAKEN IT, TOO.

SO, THIS BIG TOUGH GUY

EVER TELL YOU HOW HE GOT SENT TO STATE PRISON?

SURE, MAN. SHOOTOUT.

SHOOTOUT.

HE SHOT A WOMAN.

A MOTHER AT A CONVENIENCE STORE

WHEN SHE WENT FOR THE BURGLAR ALARM.

ISN'T THAT RIGHT, HECTOR?

NOT ME. THE KID I WAS WITH.

HE PULLED THE TRIGGER.

YEAH, HE SURE DID.

YOU SEE, HECTOR'S PARTNER WAS A MINOR.

SO HECTOR WENT TO SAN QUENTIN FOR 8 YEARS,

WHILE THE BOY WENT HOME IN 5 DAYS.

THAT'S SOMETHING

YOU PROBABLY THOUGHT AN AWFUL LOT ABOUT,

SITTING UP THERE IN HARD TIME, RIGHT?

YES, I DID.

AND I FIGURED IT ALL OUT.

I'M TOO OLD FOR THE LIFE OF CRIME.

YEAH, WELL, SO IS THE BOY THAT GOT AWAY.

YOU SEE, HE'S IN DEATH ROW NOW...

FOR ANOTHER MURDER.

HEY, MAN, DON'T TRY TO SCARE US.

WE'RE COOL. YOU CAN'T HASSLE US.

YOU DON'T HAVE A CHARGE ON US.

JUST GET OFF OUR BACKS.

WELL, THE WAY I LOOK AT IT, SON,

IS 3 OF YOU WERE IN ON THAT ROBBERY.

SO I'LL JUST TAKE ALL 5 OF YOU DOWNTOWN,

WHAT DO YOU SAY?

WHAT'S THE CHARGE?

HOW ABOUT MURDER?

HEH HEH. STAY COOL.

THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO YOU.

YOU'LL BE SLEEPING ON YOUR OWN BED TONIGHT.

HEH HEH HEH.

SO, YOU'RE TELLING ME YOU HAD TO SPRING

ALL 5 OF THOSE KIDS?

WHY? WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?

ALL THE KIDS WERE WEARING DARK SUNGLASSES,

AND THE GUY JUST COULDN'T I.D. THEM.

YOU'D THINK HE COULD TRY A LITTLE HARDER.

WELL, WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?

IF HE HAD I.D.'d THOSE KIDS,

THEY'D GET OUT OF THE SMOG FOR A COUPLE WEEKS,

AND THAT WOULD BE IT.

YEAH, AND NOW THEY'RE BACK

WITH THEIR FAGIN ON THE STREET,

AND IT'LL GIVE US A BETTER SHOT AT THEM.

YOU KNOW, GOING AFTER THEM

IS NOT GOING TO BE EASY.

THOSE BARRIO KIDS DON'T BREAK.

YEAH, WE KNOW THAT.

ALL RIGHT, HERE. TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT.

THANK YOU.

SEE THAT GIRL SITTING JUST BEHIND MRS. MORALES?

IT MUST BE HIS SISTER IRENA.

I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE HER AT FIRST.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, RECOGNIZE HER?

YOU'VE SEEN HER BEFORE?

YEAH, THAT'S THE ONE WE TOLD YOU ABOUT.

SHE CAME OUT OF THE BACK OF EL GALLO

RIGHT BEFORE WE WENT IN FOR THE ARREST.

WHAT ARE THEY DOING HERE?

IT'S LIKE I SAID.

ONCE THEY START TO HASSLE YOU,

THEY NEVER LET UP.

NOT EVEN...

WHEN WE BURY OUR BROTHER?

THERE'S YOUR ANSWER.

SILENCIO, POR FAVOR.

Priest: TAMBIEN POR TU MISERICORDIA

LO ASOCIAS A LOS CORAS CELESTIALES

POR JESUCRISTO, NUESTRO SENOR, AMEN.

DALE, SENOR, EL DESCANSO ETERNO

Y BRILLA SOBRE EL LA LUZ ETERNA, AMEN.

YOU SHOULD BE TALKING TO MY TEACHERS,

TO MY BOSS WHERE I WORK AFTER SCHOOL.

I'VE BEEN TALKING TO YOUR TEACHERS

AND TO YOUR BOSS DOWN AT THE WAREHOUSE, YES.

AND EVERY ONE OF THEM SAY, EMILIO,

YOU HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF POTENTIAL.

YEAH, POTENTIAL.

SO DID MIGUEL.

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING.

WHAT HAPPENED TO MIGUEL HERE CAN HAPPEN

TO ANY ONE OF YOU KIDS AT ANY TIME,

AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT.

WHAT CAN I DO?

TALK TO ME, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW.

AND YOU'RE GOING TO PROTECT US?

ME AND MY MOTHER? AND MY SISTER?

YOU GOING TO PROTECT US WHERE WE LIVE?

LISTEN, MAN, POLICE CARS DON'T EVEN GO DOWN THERE AT NIGHT

WITHOUT A BACKUP.

GO HOME, HUNTER.

YOU GOT NO BUSINESS HERE.

SPEAKING OF BUSINESS,

YOU KIDS KNOW WHAT HAPPENS

TO MONEY YOU GUYS TAKE?

HEY, WHY DON'T YOU TAKE OFF, BIG MAN?

I BET YOU DON'T, DO YOU?

IT'S NO USE, HUNTER.

THESE KIDS DON'T WANT YOU COMING HERE

TO THIS HOLY PLACE TO INSULT THEM.

HOW MANY MORE OF THESE KIDS

YOU GOING TO PLANT OUT HERE, HECTOR?

WHAT KIND OF A MAN ARE YOU, ANYWAY?

I'M THE KIND OF MAN YOU MADE ME, HUNTER.

YOU SENT ME TO THE STATE PEN,

AND I LEARNED MY LESSON WELL.

WHATEVER KIND OF MAN I AM,

YOU WERE MY TEACHER.

HEH HEH HEH.

HEH. LET'S GO.

HEH HEH HEH HEH.

COME ON.

LISTEN, JUST GO ONCE AROUND THE BLOCK.

I'M GOING TO TALK TO THE OWNER.

IS THAT HIM OVER THERE, BY THE GARBAGE CAN?

HEH HEH. YOU GOT A SENSE OF HUMOR.

I DON'T.

UMBERTO.

MY TIGER.

NOBODY FOLLOW YOU?

GOOD. YES.

UMBERTO, MY MAN.

WHEN I HAVE A JOB THAT TAKES MORE THAN A BOY,

I CALL UMBERTO.

YEAH.

WHEN EMILIO STUMBLED AND MIGUEL WENT DOWN,

YOU TOOK THE OLD MAN OUT.

YOU STAYED COOL.

YOU FOUND OUT HOW EASY IT WAS

WITH THE LAW.

ALL EXCEPT FOR ONE COP.

HUNTER. HE'S A DANGER TO US ALL,

ESPECIALLY TO YOU.

HE DOESN'T PLAY BY THE RULES.

AND THE RULES, UMBERTO, IS WHAT WORKS FOR US.

A COP WHO IGNORES THE RULES

IS A DEADLY ENEMY.

LOOK.

YOUR BANK ACCOUNT.

YOUR CUT FROM THE LAST TWO JOBS.

YOU'LL GET TWICE AS MUCH TOMORROW MORNING.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO...

IS TAKE OUR ENEMY OUT.

SO, WHAT HAVE YOU GOT HERE, LUIS?

ANOTHER LIST?

A LIST OF MERCHANDISE TAKEN IN ROBBERIES...

BY PEEWEE GANGS

SINCE HECTOR RIVAS GOT OUT OF PRISON.

DON'T TELL ME. SO WHAT WE DO IS,

WE CHECK EVERY ITEM ON THIS LIST

TO SEE IF WE CAN TRACE IT BACK TO HECTOR,

WHOM WE ALREADY KNOW, HE'S THE FAGIN, IS THAT IT?

YEAH. IT'S CALLED POLICE WORK.

WHAT HAVE YOU GOT?

I HAVE ANOTHER LIST

OF THE DAYS

OF WHEN ALL THE KIDS WERE ABSENT FROM SCHOOL

AND THE DATES OF THE ROBBERIES.

I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO BE REAL SURPRISED

TO FIND OUT THEY MATCH.

WELL, OF COURSE THEY'RE GOING TO MATCH.

SO WHAT IS ALL THIS FOR?

TO BUST THESE KIDS,

SO WE CAN TAKE THEM TO THE MOUNTAINS,

SO THEY CAN PADDLE CANOES?

WHAT I WANT TO KNOW IS HOW WE BUST THE FAGIN.

WHY DON'T WE TAKE A BREAK, HUH?

GO GET SOME FOOD.

YEAH, FOOD.

THAT'S WHAT WE NEED. YOU WANT TO COME ALONG?

CHOWDER NIGHT.

NO, I'VE GOT TO GO HOME.

I JUST REMEMBERED...

I HAVEN'T HUGGED MY KIDS TODAY.

HERE, TAKE THIS.

WHERE DO YOU PUT ALL THAT?

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU?

DON'T YOU LIKE CHOWDER?

YEAH, BUT NOT 3 BOWLS FULL WITH MUSTARD.

HEY, IT'S CHOWDER NIGHT.

AND BESIDES, IT'S GREAT WITH MUSTARD.

YOU GOT THE BILL.

I'M GOING TO BRING THE CAR AROUND.

OK.

DROP THE GUN.

HUNTER!

NO!

Newsman: SERGEANT HUNTER, WILL YOU MAKE A STATEMENT, SIR?

GIVE US YOUR SIDE OF THE STORY?

Newswoman: DID YOU KNOW THAT HE WAS A CHILD

WHEN YOU KILLED HIM?

DID YOU MEAN TO DO IT, SERGEANT HUNTER?

Second newsman: DID YOU KNOW HIM BEFORE?

DO YOU FEEL ANY PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY

FOR WHAT HAPPENED?

LET THE MAN THROUGH. BACK OFF!

LET THE MAN THROUGH.

DID YOU HAVE TO SHOOT TO KILL, SERGEANT HUNTER?

COULDN'T YOU HAVE SHOT THE GUN OUT OF HIS HAND?

YOU DON'T TAKE CHANCES DOING TRICK SHOTS

WHEN A MAN'S GOT A GUN AIMED AT YOUR PARTNER.

A MAN, SERGEANT HUNTER?

HE WAS 16-YEAR-OLD BOY WITH NO RECORD.

HE COULD HAVE KILLED HER JUST AS EASY

AS ANY MAN HERE COULD HAVE KILLED HER.

SO YOU AIMED TO KILL.

I AIMED TO STOP HIM.

Man: YOU A MURDERER, MAN!

CHILD MURDERER! CHILD MURDERER, MAN!

HERE HE IS.

WHAT'S YOUR COMMENT, CAPTAIN WYLER?

WELL, SERGEANT HUNTER HAS AN EXCELLENT RECORD,

AND I CAN'T REALLY SAY MORE UNTIL I HAVE THE FACTS,

AND THOSE WILL BE FORTHCOMING.

THERE WILL BE A FULL INVESTIGATION?

YES, AT A CLOSED HEARING.

WHAT'S THE WORST THAT CAN HAPPEN

TO SERGEANT HUNTER?

I THINK THE WORST HAS ALREADY HAPPENED.

Chairman: HAVING REVIEWED ALL THE CIRCUMSTANCES,

AND IN CONSIDERATION

OF THE EVIDENCE PROVIDED BY DETECTIVE McCALL

AND OF THE BALLISTICS REPORTS

SHOWING THAT THE BOY'S WEAPON

WAS DISCHARGED 5 TIMES

BEFORE SERGEANT HUNTER FIRED A SINGLE SHOT,

THIS BOARD FINDS THAT DETECTIVE RICK HUNTER DID ACT

WITHIN THE GUIDELINES OF THE DEPARTMENT

IN DISCHARGING HIS WEAPON IN THE INCIDENT

THAT RESULTED IN THE DEATH OF UMBERTO SANDOVAL.

SO, WHAT ARE WE TALKING? LEAVE? TRANSFER? WHAT?

A LEAVE.

OK. ON WHAT BASIS?

STRESS?

WELL, I JUST NEED TO BE ALONE,

DO SOME THINKING, YOU KNOW?

I NEVER KILLED A 16-YEAR-OLD BOY BEFORE.

WELL, YOU HAD NO CHOICE.

I MEAN, YOU PROTECTED YOUR PARTNER.

YOU DID WHAT ANY COP SHOULD AND WOULD DO.

OK, RICK.

AS OF NOW, YOU'RE ON LEAVE.

IF, UH, YOU NEED MY HELP IN ANY WAY, YOU CALL.

I WILL. THANKS.

WHAT'S THIS?

CHOWDER NIGHT.

3 FOR ME...

ONE FOR YOU.

MUSTARD.

HOW ABOUT THIS?

HOW ABOUT 1, 2...

3, AND 4 FOR YOU...

AND NONE FOR ME?

YOU HAVE TO EAT.

THAT'S ALL I HAVE BEEN DOING IS EATING.

I'M TIRED OF EATING. I DON'T WANT TO EAT.

OK, THEN YOU HAVE TO STOP EATING.

YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.

I AM... I'M THINKING.

I'M THINKING ABOUT OPENING A PIZZA PARLOR.

LOOK, I'VE SAID IT BEFORE, AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN.

I AM NOT GOING TO BREAK IN A NEW PARTNER,

SO IF YOU QUIT, I QUIT.

QUIT? WHY AM I QUITTING? I'M NOT QUITTING.

I LIKE MY JOB.

IT'S JUST THAT I'VE BEEN THINKING.

AND I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT, UH,

EVERYTHING THAT'S HAPPENED,

AND IT'S CHANGED THE WAY I LOOK AT MY JOB.

IT JUST HURTS TO KNOW

THAT A 16-YEAR-OLD BOY COULD DIE LIKE THAT.

I KNOW.

BUT, LISTEN, HECTOR RIVAS KILLED THAT BOY,

JUST AS SOON AS HE SENT HIM OUT TO KILL A COP.

YEAH, I KNOW THAT. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PROVE IT.

THAT'S RIGHT, WE HAVE TO PROVE THAT

BEFORE SOMEBODY OR MAYBE ME

HAS TO KILL ANOTHER ONE OF HECTOR'S KIDS.

THAT'S ANOTHER THING.

YOU HAVEN'T BEEN ANSWERING YOUR PHONE.

THAT'S BY DESIGN.

HUNTER RESIDENCE.

McCALL? LUIS.

I GOT A CALL ON THE OTHER LINE FOR HUNTER.

I WANT TO PATCH IT THROUGH.

YEAH. WHO'S CALLING?

PUT HIM THROUGH.

IT'S FOR YOU.

EMILIO MORALES.

EMILIO.

YEAH. WHERE ARE YOU?

BE RIGHT THERE.

I...

HECTOR SAYS WE'RE BROTHERS.

MY REAL BROTHER'S DEAD...

BECAUSE I STUMBLED.

THEN UMBERTO, HE PICKED UP THE GUN.

HE KILLED THE OLD MAN.

AND NOW YOU KILLED UMBERTO.

UMBERTO AND ME,

WE GREW UP TOGETHER.

BUT I DON'T BLAME YOU.

I BLAME HECTOR.

WELL, SO DO WE, EMILIO.

WE'VE GOT TO STOP HIM.

BUT I CAN'T TESTIFY. I CAN'T.

WHAT DID YOU WANT TO TELL US, EMILIO?

ANOTHER JOB'S GOING DOWN.

WHERE? WHEN?

YOU MUST PROMISE

THAT NO MORE OF MY FRIENDS WILL BE HURT.

EMILIO, I WISH WE COULD PROMISE YOU THAT,

BUT WE CAN'T.

WE'LL DO THE BEST WE CAN, THOUGH.

TOMORROW MORNING.

THE FARMACIA...

ON THE CORNER OF VAYO AND MENDOZA.

FOR DRUGS.

OK. WE'RE GOING TO BE WATCHING.

AS SOON AS THE TRANSACTION IS MADE

AND HECTOR GETS THE DRUGS,

WE'RE GOING TO NAIL HIM.

THAT'S WHAT I WANT.

IF ANYBODY FINDS OUT I TOLD YOU, I'M DEAD.

WE WON'T LET THAT HAPPEN, BELIEVE ME.

EVEN IF IT DOES,

JUST STOP HECTOR.

JUST DON'T FOLLOW ME, PLEASE.

WELL, IF WE DON'T FIND EMILIO BEFORE THEY DO,

WE'VE KILLED ANOTHER KID.

WHY DID YOU HAVE CARLOS BRING ME HERE?

BECAUSE I CAN'T SHOW MY FACE.

THE COPS ARE LOOKING ALL OVER FOR ME

BECAUSE OF YOUR ROTTEN BROTHER.

EMILIO? WHAT HAS HE DONE?

HE WENT TO THE COPS.

HE SPILLED HIS GUTS

ABOUT THE GANG AND THE CHECK-CASHING JOB.

BUT YOU SAID HE WASN'T THERE!

NONE OF THEM WERE!

I SAID THAT TO PROTECT THEM.

BUT CHACO SAW HIM TALKING TO HUNTER

AND THE DETECTIVE WOMAN.

I GOT CHACO AND SANCHO AND TITO

LOOKING ALL OVER FOR HIM.

BUT IF THE COPS FIND HIM BEFORE WE DO,

HE COULD TESTIFY AGAINST US.

HE DIDN'T...

THE LAW IS ON THEIR SIDE!

NOT MINE.

THE LAW CAN BURN ME.

NOW, YOU KNOW WHERE HE IS.

NOW TELL ME! WHERE IS HE?

LET GO OF ME!

TELL ME!

YOUR ROTTEN BROTHER

CAN SEND ME BACK TO SAN QUENTIN.

TO DEATH ROW!

I HOPE HE DOES.

THERE'S NO SIGN OF HIM.

I THINK HE'S LONG GONE BY NOW,

HALFWAY TO T.J.

NO.

EMILIO WOULDN'T GO VERY FAR

WITHOUT HE FIRST SEES HIS MOTHER.

HERE, TAKE IT.

NO. NO!

NO!

SHUT UP!

TAKE IT.

HEY...

I DON'T WASTE NOBODY'S MOTHER.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BRING HER HERE.

EMILIO WILL COME TO US.

TAKE IT.

SHE'S STILL IN THERE ALONE.

I'M GOING TO GO AROUND ONE MORE TIME.

¿SI?

EMILIO!

¡AY, GRACIAS A DIOS!

¿DONDE ESTAS?

SI...

EN LA FERRETERIA DONDE TRABAJAS.

SI...

TE VOY A TRAER EL DINERO.

OPERADOR, LA POLICIA, POR FAVOR.

ES UN EMERGENCIA.

On radio: HUNTER, McCALL, THIS IS LUIS.

THIS IS McCALL. COME IN, LUIS.

I'M HOLDING MRS. MORALES ON THE PHONE.

SHE'S HAD A CALL FROM EMILIO.

WHERE IS HE?

THE WAREHOUSE WHERE HE WORKS,

THE APEX PRODUCE WAREHOUSE AT, UM...

YEAH, WE KNOW WHERE IT IS.

WE PASSED IT 3 TIMES TONIGHT.

ALL RIGHT. LISTEN...

ONE OF THE GANG OVERHEARD THE CALL,

WHICH MEANS HECTOR RIVAS KNOWS WHERE HE IS.

MRS. MORALES WANTS TO GO TO THE WAREHOUSE.

LUIS, TELL MRS. MORALES

THAT McCALL WILL STAY HERE WITH HER.

I WILL GO TO THE WAREHOUSE IMMEDIATELY.

YOU GOT THAT?

I'LL SEND A BACKUP.

Hector: YOU DID GOOD.

I'M GOING TO GO GET THE CAR.

YOU GET RID OF HER.

GET LOST, IRENA.

POLICE, MRS. MORALES.

SI, ENTIENDO. GRACIAS.

LUIS? STAY ON THE LINE.

HEY, EMILIO?

ESE...

COME ON OUT.

I KNOW YOU'RE OUT HERE, ESE.

Chaco: HECTOR!

IT'S ME, MAN, CHACO!

GET OUT HERE.

SORRY. YOU OK? YEAH.

HE AIN'T HERE, MAN.

HE IS HERE!

I CAN FEEL IT!

DROP THE GUN, BOTH OF YOU! COME ON!

HEH HEH HEH. DROP YOUR GUN, HUNTER.

HEH HEH HEH.

DROP IT!

UNLESS YOU WANT TO KILL ANOTHER BOY.

EL DINERO VINO EN PARTE DE USTEDES.

MUCHISIMAS GRACIAS.

Irena: SHE SAYS THANK YOU.

SHE KNOWS THAT YOU...

THAT ALL OF YOU HAVE CONTRIBUTED

TO THE RELOCATION MONEY.

Dee Dee: WELL, WE WISH IT COULD HAVE BEEN MORE.

Luis: WE'D BETTER GET GOING.

AIRLINES DON'T WAIT.

YOU KNOW WHAT THE KIDS IN THE BARRIO THINK?

THEY THINK I'M A SNITCH,

THAT I'M RUNNING AWAY LIKE A COWARD.

EMILIO, GET THIS STRAIGHT... YOU'RE NOT A COWARD.

AS A MATTER OF FACT, YOU'RE A PRETTY BRAVE KID.

BUT I AM RUNNING AWAY.

EMILIO, NOBODY CAN MAKE YOU FEEL

ASHAMED OF YOURSELF WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION.

THAT'S RIGHT.

REMEMBER THAT.

YEAH. IT'LL WORK OUT IN SPOKANE.

BECAUSE, UH, I'M COMING BACK.

ATTABOY.

I MEAN, NOT UNTIL I GET A GOOD EDUCATION,

BUT I AM COMING BACK.

OK. COME ON.

OK, LUIS.
