Didn't know I was walkin' into a party.
- I woulda brought something.
- You cocky motherfucker.
Tryin' to force my hand
to take a fall for you?
I ain't forcing nothin', Sal.
I saw an opportunity, is all.
The streets are talkin' again!
They know there's only
one man big enough
to go against the Falcones,
Salvatore motherfuckin' Maroni.
You want the credit.
You deserve the credit. And it's yours.
Or I could drop your name
to the Falcones right now
and stop this war you've
brought on my Family.
Tell 'em it was you that whacked Alberto
and watch 'em slice you
from earhole to asshole.
Well, yeah, I mean,
that's another way to go.
But you're wearin' that ring
around here, Sal.
You're already gloatin'.
You might as well lean in.
Listen
The Falcones are still
lickin' their wounds.
They're distracted.
And I got the inside track
with the new Don.
They brought in Carmine's brother, Luca.
He's a fuckin' pussy, but I got his ear.
This can work.
We can take 'em all down, Sal.
But you gotta do your part.
[UNEASY MUSIC PLAYING]
[IN FARSI]
you make good on the Drops you promised.
This is Ervad, one of my capos.
- He'll run point.
- It's a simple route.
Straight shot to Robbinsville.
No highways. All neighborhoods.
Nice work, boys. Do it up.
[OZ] Usin' the FEMA truck as our cover,
and the Drops'll be sittin' pretty
inside barrels of "Emergency Water".
Hey, Castillo.
No hard feelings, right?
We're all on the same side.
[BARREL CLANGS]
Yeah, sure, Oz.
- Yeah.
- Good.
[OZ] Everyone in the lead car
and truck, they're patsies.
You waste 'em, you get your drugs
and some blood.
- That it?
- [MAN] Yeah.
Alright, lock it up. Let's head out!
But the follow car,
that's where I'll be.
You don't fuckin' touch that.
I'll be there making sure
that you get what's yours
without a hitch.
- Sound good?
- Yeah.
Boom.
Everything goes simple.
Penguin!
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
You're on the truck with the product.
Johnny. Nice to see you, too.
But listen, I got it all set.
I'm in the, uh, follow car.
The truck is packed.
Ready to go. All good
[VITI] The fuck's your head at?
We're in the middle of a gang war.
I'm just doin' what I was told.
Ain't my idea to close shop
and move the product to Robbinsville.
We're adding artillery to every vehicle.
And your operation Right?
That's what you said,
it's your operation.
means you're on the truck.

[NICK] We're just riding down
the fuckin' road
and then the truck
[IMITATES GUNFIRE] gets lit up.
First SUV crashes,
we hop out of the car,
we're fucking shot.
I'm beating some fucking guy
I'm definitely dead without
this motherfucker.
Castillo here is dead
if it wasn't for Oz.
- And then we fucking lock up
- [OZ YELLING INDISTINCTLY]
[NICK CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY]
[OZ AND VITI ARGUING INDISTINCTLY]
[OZ] What the fuck was I supposed to do?
They ambushed us 'cause
they think we're weak.
I tried to tell ya
[VITI] We look weak
'cause you let 'em fuck us.
[OZ] Hey, it was your route!
We were sittin' ducks out there.
If it weren't for me,
more men woulda died.
Please. You didn't do shit
to protect our Drops.
The Maronis walked away
with the whole goddamn stash.
[SOFIA] Is that all you care about?
The product? The money we lost?
We can get more money, gentlemen.
I think you're missing the point here.
They humiliated our Family.
I mean, they took my brother,
and they shoved his body
in the trunk of a car, like
he was a piece of trash.
Look, Sofia, we all cared for Alberto
[SOFIA] Well, I doubt that,
Milos. I really do.
Justice is what matters.
And that is what my brother
your nephew deserves.
Hear, hear.
Why aren't his killers
strung up across the city?
When the time is right,
the Maronis'll pay.
[SOFIA] The Maronis. Right, okay.
Well, open your eyes.
They weren't working alone.
How'd they know about our route?
How'd they know about the FEMA truck?
They had someone on the inside,
helping them.
Someone in our own Family.
[VITI] How dare you with this shit.
You waltzin' in here
like you mean something.
You don't call the shots around here.
[LUCA] Johnny! Neither do you.
And this is my niece you're talking to.
Show her some fucking respect.
[VITI] Sorry, Luca. You're right.
Sofia
my apologies.
Increase security around the house
and all our businesses.
Put the word out.
If anybody outside the network
is selling our Drops,
they'll answer for it.
Let's call it a night.
You need anything from me, Boss?
You've done enough.
Sofia
Stay.
[DOOR CLOSES]
[CUP CLATTERS]
You've always had a nose
for bullshit, Sofia.
Your father knew that too.
But if there's a rat, we'll find him.
But the when and the how, that
that ain't up to you.
The when and the how
That's your call.
Because you're the Boss.
I'm gonna let that one slide.
Because you're grieving.
We're all grieving.
Your brother's funeral is tomorrow.
Just focus on laying him to rest.
I'll deal with the Family business.
- Sofia.
- What do you want, Oz?
I know we've got our differences.
You made that pretty fuckin' clear.
But I'm willin' to look past
the pain you put me through,
if you are.
- Is that right?
- Yeah.
Look, I'm on your side.
I saved your boy
Castillo's life tonight,
even after what he did to me.
What're we runnin', a marathon here?
Listen, what you said
about an inside man.
I believe you. I could ask around.
Do some digging. Whatever you need.
Why would you do that?
Because it should be you
in there, callin' the shots.
You should be the new boss,
not Carmine's little brother.
- Careful
- "Careful" whatever.
I know I shouldn't say it. So what?
Al is dead. I loved him, too.
More than those pricks.
And look
If one of 'em had a hand in it,
who's to say you ain't next?
They didn't care about Al.
They sure as shit don't like you.
They think you're crazy.
You don't need me tellin' you that.
You can feel it.
But you got a card to play.
Something that'll force them
to see the power you got.
Al's shipment.
The new drug.
It's what he woulda wanted.
To see you take over.
Keep his dream alive, you know?
You think you know
what's best for me, hmm?
You think you know what I need?
How are you any different
than those pricks in there?
That ain't what I was saying, Sofia
Very, very convenient
that, all of a sudden,
you're on my side.
Will you look at that?
Right?
My little helper.
- Alright.
- Fucking desperate.
You are scrambling for
whatever dignity you have left
and you're hoping I will save you.
Not gonna happen.
I don't owe you a fuckin' thing.
No, you're right, you don't.
I owe you.
- [JAZZY PIANO MUSIC PLAYING]
- [OZ] Fuck 'em all.
Trying to push me out?
I was Carmine Falcone's right hand.
You'd think it'd mean something.
A couple of "thank-yous"
wouldn't hurt, but no.
"You've done enough, Oz".
You think I've done enough, asshole?
You ain't seen what I can do.
[CAR HORNS HONKING]
None of those fucks had
the balls to do what I did.
Hey, kid! Let's go!
A lotta people'd be happy
if their dipshit brother
- turned up dead.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
Maybe even ecstatic.
Not Sofia Falcone!
So friggin' uptight.
[GLASSES CLINKING]
She ain't gonna stop
until she's got someone's
head on a platter.
- [CORK POPS]
- Yeah. R-right.
So, what's the plan
with that, by the way?
- Are we gonna
- I know what you're thinkin', kid.
We can't kill her.
Oh, um No, I wasn't
She wants an inside man,
I'm gonna give her one.
Otherwise, I ain't got no shot
at getting my hands
on Al's shipment, you know?
Jesus, Vic! I said no cilantro!
- It's fuckin' everywhere!
- Shit, I'm sorry.
Might as well shove a bar
of goddamn soap in my mouth.
Girls are on their way. Start pickin'.
[ENGINE REVVING]
[MAN ON RADIO]
Since the seawall's collapse,
crime has spiked all over Gotham.
Going up by a whopping 42%.
[WOMAN] Don't forget
the rolling power outages.
This city and the system are broken.
[MAN] And I doubt the mayor-elect
has the guts to fix it.
They're letting psychos
out of Arkham now.
- You hear about this?
- [WOMAN] The Hangman.
She was technically exonerated.
- [MAN] I don't care.
- Wait. Leave it on.
Sofia Falcone is a serial killer.
Seven women. And that's just
who we know about.
[CAR HORNS HONKING]
[OZ] You ever heard of the Blue Heron?
- No.
- [OZ] It was a club.
You know, it was the Falcone
hangout back in the day,
and I was a bar-back.
One day, this guy Pinchy rolls in,
says he's so impressed with the way
that I been takin' care of everybody,
he wants me to be his driver.
Only problem was I couldn't drive.
Right, so so what'd you do?
What'd I do?
I took the goddamn job, kid.
What do you think?
And this was on a Friday,
and I start on Monday.
[CHUCKLES]
So, over the weekend,
I stole myself an old Buick.
I drove it around
the Eastside like a maniac
till I landed it in a ditch
next to the Sprang River.
- But I fuckin' learned, Vic.
- [BUZZER SOUNDS]
And on Monday, I became
Pinchy Rovegno's driver.
- [BUZZER SOUNDS]
- [VICTOR] Where is he now?
- Who?
- The, uh
Pinchy. What, uh
What happened to him?
[OZ] Ah, well.
A few months later, Carmine
caught him talkin' to the Feds.
Yeah, so Pinchy got popped.
But Carmine saw somethin' in me.
Thought I was worth keepin' around.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
And the rest is history.
- [DOOR OPENS]
- [OZ] Welcome, ladies.
I'm glad you could make it. Hey, Alice.
Whoa, is that a new coat? Very furry.
- Hi, baby.
- Hey, Cin, Rox.
- Hello.
- Everybody, this is Vic.
Vic, everybody. There's my girl.
- Hey.
- You alright?
Yeah, yeah. Long day, tough day.
- It's good you're here.
- Yeah?
Let's put on some tunes.
I'm asking how much you got left.
- And I told you. Nothing.
- [ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
It's a goddamn drought out there.
Bullshit. Bullshit.
You owe me, man.
Take it up with The Riddler.
[PATRONS CHATTERING]
Rough night, Detective?
You gotta be kidding me. I-I-I
[CHUCKLES]
No. I-I'm sorry, but,
um, all respect, no.
No, no.
[SOFIA] You used to work for my father.
Half the force worked for
your father, you know.
But you were particularly dependable,
especially at finding
snakes in the grass.
Right until you became a Drophead.
Well, that's insulting.
I don't think we need to
[SOFIA] A gift, for your condition.
You wanna do 'em now?
You can do 'em now.
[SQUIRTING]
[SOFTLY] Oh yeah.
[GRUNTS]
[LAUGHS, SNIFFS]
Four hours ago, the Maronis
hijacked a Falcone transport
heading for Robbinsville.
I need to know how they came
to have that information.
And you're coming to me,
instead of your Family? Why?
Oh, you-you think it was an inside job.
That's something I don't know
if I'd feel comfortable
[MURMURS]
I'll need discretion.
Let me see what I can dig up.
Great.
[LAUGHING AND EXCLAIMING]
- [OZ] Hey, everybody. Tonight
- [PHONE CHIMES]
Tonight went fuckin' sideways.
No easy way to say it.
The Maronis came at us,
but we held our own.
We spilled their goddamn blood
in the streets, too. Right?
[MEN EXCLAIM IN AGREEMENT]
[OZ] Okay, so I say we save our anger.
We keep it right in here,
'cause the Maronis started
something they don't know what.
- They'll fuckin' see.
- That's fuckin' right.
So here's to our friends
who ain't so lucky tonight.
Rest well.
Hey, Vic, get over here. Rox
This is the guy who
fucked up the taco order.
- Ah
- Vic.
Roxy here is a successful entrepreneur
in the, uh, camming industry.
Wow, okay. So you're a camgirl.
Whoa, easy, Romeo, you can't afford her.
I do mostly fetish stuff.
Domination.
Sometimes I work with cake.
- You got a sweet tooth, Vic?
- [CHUCKLES]
[OZ LAUGHS] Gonna leave you to it.
[VICTOR] All right.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
[DOOR CLICKING SHUT]
[DOOR CLOSES]
Where are you from?
Yeah, I'm, um
[STAMMERS] I'm-I'm from
I'm f-f-from Cr
[STUTTERS SOFTLY]
Crown Point. I'm from Crown Point.
Yeah, my cousin lived over there.
She said it's like a
no-man's-land now or something.
I mean, they lost everything.
What about you?
Uh
- Um
- So
How do you know Oz?
Hm.
Um, uh
I-I I work for him.
Really?
Yeah, I'm
I'm his driver.
Yeah.
Huh.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING IN BACKGROUND]
[KNOCK AT DOOR]
Yeah?
Baby, can we talk?
[OZ] It's gonna have to wait, doll.
Got a lot of shit I'm dealing with.
You killed Alberto Falcone.
That's why you needed
my alibi, isn't it?
[LAUGHS]
You're putting me and my girls at risk.
That's not part of the deal.
Say something.
Eve, sweetheart,
there's all kinds of things I can say,
but what matters is,
ain't nothin' to be afraid of.
Look, I got a file on Johnny Viti.
Once Luca gets his eyes on that,
that prick weasel Viti's
gonna take the fall
for the whole fuckin' thing.
The Falcone underboss?
He's untouchable.
[OZ LAUGHS] No one's untouchable.
Then neither are you.
[OZ SIGHS]
Hey, look at me.
- Look at me.
- [EVE SIGHS]
You bet on the right horse.
And I ain't gonna be on my own
enjoyin' the spoils.
I'm gonna open up another club,
it's gonna be swankier
than the Iceberg Lounge,
your girls for entertainment.
I slip these pics to Luca
at the funeral tomorrow
and it's baby blue skies, doll.
You just gotta trust me.
[SOFTLY] Come here.
[OZ GRUNTS]
There she is.
You're playing a dangerous game
with this Family, Oz.
Oh, yeah?
You think I want Sofia Falcone
knocking on my door?
Women like me, we got enough
targets on our backs.
And I'm tellin' you,
I know what I'm doin'.
You seen me through worse,
and I always come out the other side,
better than before.
Trust me.
There ain't nothin' about
Sofia Falcone I can't handle.

but this is too much.

I just went for a walk.

This guy. He's got nothin' better to do
than waste your goddamn time.
Come here.
Qué pasó?
[FRANCIS] Hey.
You're a nurse, right?
Do you need anything?
Why does everybody keep asking me that?
[IN SPANISH]
a doctor now, too?
I don't pay you for your
medical advice, Cesar.
Jesus.

God bless you.
Thanks a lot.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]
We didn't have a service
for my brothers.
My ma said she didn't want
to deal with the pity.
Well, my ma, she, uh
she wouldn't get outta bed.
For weeks.
Maybe a month.
I tried all kinds of shit
to get her up and goin' but
you know, nothin' took.
Then one night, outta the blue,
she came to me,
she was all dolled up.
"Oswald, we're going out", she says.
I was fuckin' thrilled.
She took me to a jazz club
in the Eastside.
Monroe's.
Yeah, it's the first time
I ever heard live music.
Whoa!
We danced all night.
You and your mom?
That's what we did.
How we celebrated 'em, you know.
Jack and Benny.
They woulda fuckin'
loved it, too. [CHUCKLES]
Anyway, after that, she
started gettin' outta bed.
She went back to work.
She took care of me.
What do you think it was
that changed for her?
Uh, I'd like to think it was me,
but I dunno.
She died a few years back.
I never asked.
Shit like this, the pain of it,
you gotta be careful,
'cause it'll eat you alive
if you let it.
It's helluva lot more fun to dance.

He will perk up once
the morphine wears off.
What are we supposed to do with him?
It's my brother's memorial.
You said you wanted answers,
I brought you answers.
In the flesh.
[CAR ENGINE REVS NEARBY]
You better hurry up, 'cause
he ain't gonna last long.
Take him to the basement. Quietly.
When he wakes up, find me.
[NADIA] You inflated your position.
Said you had the inside track with Luca.
But now, the Falcones snatched
one of our men out of the hospital.
And you didn't say a motherfuckin' word.

You broke your word.
And that is not something
our Family tolerates.
It is how we have survived this long.
Whoa, hey, hey, hey! Hey, hey!
Goddammit, just listen.
My pocket. My fuckin' pocket.
My jacket pocket!
Let's see what he has.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
What am I looking at?
Johnny Viti is fuckin'
Luca Falcone's wife.
They been doin' it for years.
You're lookin' at the proof.
That's just the cherry on top.
I got all kinds of dirt.
Lots of it.
We can squeeze 'em one by one.
We want our man back.
Yeah, of course.
Me too.
Gimme his name. I'll find him.
Ervad Hakimi.
You met him at Blackgate.
And I suggest you hurry,
'cause if the Falcones get him to talk,
he'll have a lot to say about you.

I-I just got a-a
a couple of questions
Hey, hey, hey. Look at me. Look at me.
We pull this off, Viti takes the fall,

Lotta work for me, Vic.

[LIMPING FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
He killed my brother.
A man I trusted, working for them.
Why?
For what?
Some diamonds.
These were in Castillo's apartment.
It's what Alberto went to get
the night he died.
As an investment in our future.
In our new drug.
We were going to run
the Family together.
But Berto was taken from me.
[CLICKS TONGUE] And I refuse
to let these old fucking men
push me aside again, like I'm nothing.
So, I'm going to take from them now.
And I'm gonna force them to their knees.
It should be fun. [LAUGHS SOFTLY]
