Hell, yeah.

Oh, cool.
I will so meet you there.

Night, Grace.
[Abby Gasps, Laughs.]
[Coin Clatters.]
Brad Gholston? What are you doin' here? Internal Affairs following us off-duty now? I'm havin' a drink.
I see you've had several.
[Rhetta Imitating Back-up Signal Beeps.]
I hate Brad Gholston.
But that guy's kinda cute.
[Man.]
Make it a good one.
- Okay, come on.
Um, I'm gonna take you home.
- All right, uh, l- Ooh.
I don't want to go home.
I want to go dancing.
I wanna go crazy! Well, I have to go home, and you are not driving, so I have to drop you off.
L- l- I can drive.
I can drive, pretty girl.
- Now where are my keys? - You're not driving.
Hey, you know what? I'm not leaving Connie alone all night in a empty parking lot.
- I'm not giving you your keys.

- [Hand Slapping On Railing.]
- Rhetta.
- [Rhetta.]
Yes? - [Giggling.]
[Rooster Crows In Distance.]
[Quietly.]
Where are my keys, Rhetta? Mornin'.
Water? It's from the Swiss Alps.
So pure, you can taste the oxygen.
From Thailand, an invigorating herbal compress.
Virgin Mary from New Orleans.
Gets its kick from horseradish.
Give it a few minutes.
- Who's your new friend? - [Gags.]
[Fluid Spatters On Pavement.]
- [Screwing Cap On Bottle.]
- So, you have fun last night? [Acoustic Guitar.]
[Man.]
So pretty and, oh, so bold Got a heart full of gold on a lonely road - She said, "I don't even think that God can save me" - Save me Am I gaining ground Am I losing face Have I lost and found my saving grace Thankful for the gift my angels gave me [Siren Wailing, Stops.]
I got two kids yesterday.
[Police Radio Chatter.]
[No Audible Dialogue.]
[Police Radio Chatter Continues.]
[Crowd Chattering.]
First thing you do is take in the whole scene.
Body's not goin' anywhere.
And always look up.
You're not gonna see it now, but we got eyes on us from everywhere.
- Why are you glowing? - Earl's ancient hangover remedy.
Oh, nice.
You get drunk and yell at me and Earl rewards you by making you look 10 years younger.
I'm sorry about last night.
And I'm glad you didn't let me drive home.
- You called me an old lady.
- I was wrong in so many ways.
[Chuckles.]
- You first on the scene? - Yes, ma'am.
We got a witness.
He saw the victim being pushed off the roof at approximately 8:30 a.
m.
They turned an old gardener's shed into a drug den.
Found pipes and some needles up there and fresh tar with a boot print in it.
Yeah, manager's on his way over.
Said he patched up the roof a little bit before 8:00.
- Where was the witness? - Uh, two buildings over installing a satellite dish.
He described the assailant as a white male, I think, uh, shoulder-length brown hair It's hard to tell gender from that distance.
Is the satellite guy sure it was a male? You hear me, Ignacious? - [Loudly.]
Can you hear me now? - Hey you got a beef, take it off the scene.
- You watch your back with her.
- You're an asshole, Gil.
- You're a whore.
- [Grunting.]
I was next in line, six other guys behind me, for the rotation in your squad and she got bumped up over all of us.
Ask her why.
You okay? Go knock on some doors.
- Hey, man.
Everything cool? - Yeah.
- What do we got here? - [Scoffs.]
Whole apartment complex nobody saw anything, heard anything- just curious who this guy is or why he got pushed off the roof.
Body's still warm.
No I.
D.
Looks like scars from old track marks.
- So a two-story fall could kill him? - He landed just right.
[Ham.]
Wow.
Any of you see what happened? Any of you know the dead guy? - What's your name? - Paolo.
- You live in the building, Paolo? - No, ma'am.
I live with my grandma.
[Screen Door Clatters.]
Give your name, address, phone number to this officer.
[Both Chuckling.]
- Shit.
She a mental case? - Yeah, stoned out of her mind.
[Grace Chuckling.]
[Screaming.]
No! - [Ham.]
It's okay.
- [Wails.]
- No! - Come on.
Let's get you up.
[Sobs.]
[Gagging.]
Don't you just love your job sometimes? [Groans.]
SherryJenkins, stoner girlfriend of our victim, Robbie Martin.
She doesn't have a record.
Robbie did six years for, uh, dealing heroin.
He just got off parole.
They live in Apartment 2C.
She said Robbie went to get her a nonfat latte, never came back.
- Her boots match the print on the roof? - Ah Rhetta's doin' the comparison now.
We're tryin' to get our witness in here to look at her.
And, uh, how do we tie this boot print to the killer? Well, body fell here, boot print on the roof found here.
Rhetta did a bunch of science shit, said it was the killer's boot print.
Well, maybe Robbie's back in business.
We got a dope deal gone bad.
No drugs found in the apartment or the car.
I checked with Narco.
Word of my street contacts, there's dope comin' out of Stonewood, they'll know.
Get Custodial up here and clean up that room, then lock stoner Sherry up downstairs.
Dead animal in your drawer? - Ignacious.
- Bad breakup? - He caught me with his brother.
- Shit.
Who is the father of my son, so- - It's complicated.
- Yeah, the brother thing.
Not as bad as the father-son thing.
- So what's it got to do with gettin' bumped up in the rotation? - Nothing.
Sergeant Mogey said there was an opening, asked if I wanted it - and I wanted it.
- [Cell Phone Rings.]
Yeah, Ham.
What's goin' on? [Chuckling.]
Ah, this Good Neighbors bullshit.
Well, drag a few of'em in here, see if that gets anyone talkin'.
Ham says Patrol's been out to Stonewood five times in the last three months.
Anonymous callers say Robbie's sellin' dope, you know? Cops get out there, can't find shit.
Nobody wants to talk.
Butch and Ham didn't get anything out of those neighbors? Yeah, silence.
I'm gonna check with Rhetta.
Rhetta just left.
She left a few minutes ago with your brotherJohnny.
Mrs.
Williams, we read the suicide letter your daughter wrote the night she died.
Even if Leon Cooley was drunk, if Angie purposely jumped in front of his car we believe an innocent man has been convicted.
If you believe the same thing, we need your help.
- He needs your help.
- My help.
- Do you have children? - Yes, ma'am.
Two.
- Can you imagine your world without them? - No, ma'am.
I can't.
- [Mouthing Words.]
- Can you excuse me for a moment? I'm so sorry.
[No Audible Dialogue.]
Angie was manic-depressive.
She was off her medication.
She hated the way it made her feel.
I still blamed Leon Cooley.
I heard he killed a prison guard, got the death penalty and I thought, "Good.
That's good.
" - How long have you been a priest? - Twenty-four years.
I'm a Baptist.
I prayed and I prayed and the Lord touched my heart, Father.
I knew Leon Cooley wasn't responsible for killing my baby.
You ask me what I believe? I believe you're an answer to my prayers led to me by God.
Or an angel.
[Footsteps On Stairs.]
Hey, Spanky.
You still friends with Mogey? No hug, no how-you-do, just straight to business.
[Both Chuckle.]
- You still friends with Mogey? - Yeah.
- He the one decides which cop gets the 28-day rotation? - Yeah.
- Can you find out why he bumped up Abby Charles? - How come? - Curious.
- [Breathes Deeply.]
That's not a good sign.
[Imitates Yelp.]
- [Door Opens.]
- [Butch.]
Hey.
- So, did you and Marissa dance the night away? - [Chuckles.]
Did more talkin' than dancin'.
The kids miss their dad.
She's worried about Bobby.
Tried to convince her he's okay, and not much else I can do.
What happened to you last night? I thought you and Grace were gonna show up.
- Last night I was "old" and "no fun.
" - At least you know your science.
- You take a look at stoner Sherry's boots? - Yeah.
They didn't make the print, neither did Robbie's or the apartment manager's.
Well, at least not the boots they were wearin' at the time of the murder.
You're looking for a worn boot with a Vicram tread, size nine.
Oh, Robbie's cell phone with his and Sherry's fingerprints on it and all this is from the roof.
Is the blood on the earring male or female? - I'll know in a few hours.
- Thank you, Rhetta.
Oh, Grace wanted me to tell you thatJohnny's got a contagious staph infection - and if you touched him, you need to scrub your hands.
- Tell Grace, "Thank you.
" How's it goin' with the tenants? Slow.
Background turned up one domestic beef, two busted for drug possession and one O.
D: Three months ago, Theresa Moya.
- Found dead up on the roof.
- You check on the manager? Maybe he got tired of rentin' to dopeheads.
He was at the bank at 8:30.
And he didn't know about any drugs just stopped-up toilets and broken air conditioners.
I'm trying to get your witness in here to I.
D.
Stoner Sherry but Marquez versus Pacquiao is this weekend, so he's got a lot of appointments.
Marquez versus Pacquia- Oh, you are not a boxing fan.
- No.
- It's a big fight in Vegas.
You need pay-per-view to see it, so he'll be in later this afternoon.
Well, Sherry's sleeping downstairs, so she's not goin' anywhere.
So, I hear you, uh-you had to sleep with the chief to get this rotation.
Oh, I'm sorry.
That was me.
My mistake.
To get captain, I had to sleep with the chief and the mayor.
No, the only cop I ever slept with was a patrol officer and all that got me was a migraine and a cup of coffee.
Just know you're not the only one who's had to put up with those bullshit rumors.
- Don't worry about it.
- Thanks.
So, what happens at one of these Good Neighbors meetings? - I don't go.
I don't know.
- Stevie, aren't you a good neighbor? - How long you know Robbie? - I don't know him.
- Yeah, you do.
He sold you your dope.
- I don't know him.
Don't do dope.
Didn't kill anybody.
Stevie says he "don't do dope," and he didn't kill Robbie.
Doesn't even know him.
Huh.
Stevie's lying.
Stevie was busted for heroin twice.
Last time was 16 days ago.
You think we don't have records? You think we don't look this shit up? I'm lookin' at track marks on your friggin' arm, Stevie.
- Makes me wonder what else you're lyin' about.
- Well, he's lyin'about Robbie.
He called you this morning, 8:16.
Two of you spoke for about 20 seconds.
Robbie called you, and 15 minutes later he was dead.
Some guy called.
It was a wrong number.
I went back to sleep.
- So you ready to hand over your boots now? - No.
You're out on bail awaiting trial.
So either stick your boot up on the table or I'm gonna stick your ass in jail.
Got another boot print I want you to compare to the one on the roof.
Okay.
I know you like the butter but there are more advanced methods for collecting footprints.
- Blood on the earring was female.
- Okay.
Louie asked if I knew who this belonged to.
He found it in his parking lot.
- Thanks.
- Sure.
- I know what you and Johnny are up to.
- Staph infection? Save the whales.
Save the Earth.
Save the death row inmates.
- Okay, so you know.
- You and Johnny teamed up now- - a priest and his old girlfriend.
- [Tears.]
- [Gasps.]
Oh, shit.
- [Gasps.]
This is my lucky lab coat.
- I'm sorry.
- You said you didn't wanna know anything about Leon Cooley! - You just won't leave it alone, will you? - No I am not gonna leave this alone.
[Dog Barking In Distance.]
- Lily Carter.
- O.
C.
P.
D.
- I'm on my way to work.
- [Butch.]
Then we won't take long.
[Lilly Sighs.]
[Lilly.]
Billy, go do your homework.
And clean this place up before I get home tonight, okay? - You a good neighbor? Go to the meetings? - When I can.
- What happens? - What happens at the meetings? Just a get-together.
Is this about the guy that died? - [Door Closes.]
- Yeah.
Robbie Martin.
- Where were you this morning at 8:30? - Getting off of work.
- I need to go.
I'm pullin' a double today.
- Where do you work? The Cracker Barrel on MacArthur.
I lose my job, is the city gonna pay my rent? - Your son was busted for heroin earlier this year.
- I still have him pee in a cup.
- He get his drugs from Robbie? Where'd he get 'em? - Some guy in the park.
- Would you mind if we ask him? - Yeah.
I gotta go.
[Men Chattering In Distance.]
- [Ham.]
O.
C.
P.
D! We know you're in there.
- [Butch.]
Manager's on his way.
- You're gonna talk to us one way or another.
- [Shotgun Cocks.]
[Both Shouting.]
- [Shotgun Fires.]
- [Ham.]
Hands up! - Drop the weapon! - [Butch.]
Hey, man, get over here! [Ham.]
Give me your handsl Give me your hands! [Butch.]
Shut up! Give me your hands! - Let go, you stinkin' cop! - Give me your handsl Your handsl - [Cuffs Ratcheting.]
- [Groans.]
I'll kill you! The kids come from Mexico to work in the fields.
Once they arrive in Oklahoma, they're sold for sex.
- I broker the deals.
- Norton Burger, 1 B? Yes.
He wanted a 10-year-old boy.
Had to be under five feet I had one for him last week, but he didn't have freckles.
That was the deal breaker.
- You met with Burger at 8:00 a.
m.
What happened? - He was making up his mind.
"Counting the freckles," he said.
Then a body flew by the window.
After that, all hell broke loose.
- Why didn't you leave? - With my cover? Last thing I want is cops talkin' to me.
Plus Burger was freakin'.
Got out his shotgun.
- Figured I'd better stay.
- You saved Ham and Butch's lives.
And you blew your assignment.
You got yourself arrested.
With the record we gave you, no way you'd be back on the street.
- So put me in jail.
Let me go through the system.
- Task force is wrappin'up.
We have enough evidence to shut the operation down.
You're Bobby Stillwater again.
- We need to debrief you at the federal building.
- I'll have him there in an hour.
Did a good job, Bobby.
Therapy is available.
I suggest you take it.
Captain.
[Door Opens.]
- [Door Closes.]
- I need to see my kids.
Perry told you to sit tight.
- Why are you puttin'your shit in a box? - Bobby's desk, man.
- Do you want your desk back? - Nah, don't worry about it.
Half a million people in this city, - [Both Laugh.]
- I just heard Bobby's back.
Um, your butter print on Stevie's shoe didn't match.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Yeah, sorry about that ass-whuppin' I had to give you earlier.
[Chuckles.]
- [Both Chuckle.]
- Welcome back, Bobby.
- We missed you, man.
We missed you.
- Hey, man.
- Hmm.
It's so good to see you.
[Murmurs.]
- Mmm.
- You must be Abby.
- And how do you know about Abby? Man, you lied to us.
That's bullshit.
- Hey, you and Grace'd do the same thing.
- [Door Opens.]
[Girl Giggling.]
Sweet pea, I've missed you so much.
[Chuckling.]
Bobby, why don't you all just, uh, use my office.
- Babe, take the kids i-in the room.
- [Marissa.]
Uh, sure.
- L-I'll be with you in a second.
- [Marissa.]
All right.
Let's go.
- Um, I need to talk to you.
- [Quietly.]
All right.
- Is he okay? - He's takin' a few days.
Anything else you want to know, ask Bobby.
I drove by my place a couple of times, late at night.
- Saw your truck parked outside.
- Yeah, I was checkin' on Marissa and the girls.
- What does that mean? - It means I was checkin' on Marissa and the girls.
- Uh, it was midnight.
- All right, man, what-what are you sayin'? I'm saying, what kind of checking you doing at midnight? I was doing what you asked me to do- lookin' after your family.
I wanna know what that means.
It mean dinner, movies, gambling? - You-You and Marissa go gambling? - No.
Go out to dinner and get Marissa drunk? She's your wife.
You're my partner.
- You got a new partner.
- Until you got back.
I'm not supposed to be back, so just what the hell did I interrupt? Nothin'.
I was just tryin' to help.
Stay away from my family.
[Door Opens.]
[Door Closes.]
Yeah, you know, I'm-I'm- I'm not really a boxing fan, but thanks again for the offer.
Mm-hmm.
That was rough.
He offered the Marquez-Pacquiao fight for free.
Ooh.
I cleared my entire schedule that night.
And I put 50 bucks on Marquez.
Oh, Marquez is a great fighter, a beautiful fighter, but Pacquiao's from the streets.
- Oh, I love the Pacman, but their last fight was so close.
- It was so close.
You gotta believe that, you know, Marquez is comin' back for revenge.
- That was an amazing fight! - I'm tellin' ya.
Now listen.
Marquez can win this one.
He's just gotta keep his fist outta the Pacman's face.
- Yeah, and stay away from his straight left.
- Ooh, yeah.
That's a bad left.
[Whispers.]
Oh, that's a thing of beauty.
[Exhales.]
It's gonna be a bloodbath.
- Maybe I should reconsider free cable.
- Shit, I got mine ordered already.
- You know, Pacman ran for congress.
Lost big-time.
- Yeah.
Shame.
- Yeah, that was a bummer.
- But he can sing.
- He has a nice voice.
- [Chuckles.]
Listen, uh, your repairman- did he I.
D.
Sherry? Nah.
No, he's positive it was a guy pushed Robbie off the roof.
- You cut her loose? - Not yet.
Givin' Abby one last shot at her.
Well, let me know.
You wanna watch the fight together? Oh, yeah.
[Gus Panting.]
Hey, Gussy.
Oh.
My handsome boy.
Oh, come here.
[Chuckling.]
Oh, let me see.
Oh, Sister Mary Gus-head.
Oh.
Oh! You want this? - [Barks.]
- Ah! - Get that dog right now.
- [Barks.]
[Growling, Vocalizing.]
[Barking.]
- Oh.
- Whoa.
Whoa.
Now what you gonna do? No? Oh! [Imitates Growl.]
- [Laughing.]
- You want it? You want it? Oh! Good to see you havin' fun, Grace.
- Take me somewhere, Earl.
- Take you somewhere? Take me to Thailand, and we'll buy some more of those invigorating herbal wraps.
- Oh, I thought you had to work tonight.
- How come you gave me your ancient hangover remedy this morning? - Well, I didn't want you to be sick.
- I always figured a hangover was God's way of saying, "Ooh, I'll show you.
" A hangover's when you poison your body with alcohol.
Simple as that.
[Knocking.]
And next time, you're on your own.
[Clicks Tongue.]
This is huge, Hanadarko, huge.
- What'd you find out? - I had to buy Mogey a steak, had to get him all liquored up.
Took hours.
It was expensive.
Shit, Spanky.
I gotta sleep with you to find out about my partner? Oh, no, of course not.
But can't we have a little fun? - [Spanky.]
All right! - [Both Chuckling.]
Oh- [Scoffs.]
is that it? I'm not going out for shoestring licorice to whip your ass.
- Tell me about Abby Charles! - Mogey didn't bump her up.
Ow! Internal Affairs did.
- Are you shitting me? - [Sighs.]
Brad Gholston.
- [Men Shouting Orders.]
- [Door Buzzes.]
[Door Buzzes.]
- You remember me? - Yeah.
For years I told myself that if you weren't driving drunk, my daughter would be alive.
It was a lie.
Angie wanted to die.
And I should've said that at your trial.
[Johnny.]
Mrs.
Williams wants to help us, Leon.
She wants to set the record straight.
And this gonna get me out of prison? Well, one step at a time.
This is ultimately about an appeal to overturn your death sentence.
We have a lawyer ready to take your case.
[Johnny.]
It's a simple case.
If you had never been in prison for the death of Angie Williams you would never have killed Andy Green.
I killed a prison guard.
They ain't never let me outta here.
But we could try to get you off death row.
For what? For life in prison? - That's what you think I want? - This is only the first step.
- You even care what I want? - Yes.
Then ask me what I want! - What do you want, Mr.
Cooley? - [Sighs.]
I wanna die.
I want this over.
You can't give up hope.
We think we have a case for clemency.
You talk to Andy Green's family about that? Not yet.
We started with Mrs.
Williams.
They might get upset.
See I bit a chunk of his neck out and he bled to death right in front of me and, uh, I sat back down and finished my supper.
- You understand now? - [Johnny.]
I understand, Leon what a place like this can do to a man.
I had a life a family before her bitch daughter jumped in front of my car, you understand that? [Inhales Deeply.]
You turn your back on your daughter too? That why she dead? Go to hell.
Let me outta here.
Guard! [Door Buzzes.]
- [Butch.]
Hey.
- Hey.
- How you doin'? - Good.
Bobby called me this morning.
Uh, h-he was at the Stonewood Apartments four times in the past few months said he saw Robbie near this bike.
Oh.
Bobby say anything else? Just that he wanted us to have the information.
So I stopped by on my way in, and this was loose.
- [Grunts.]
- Heroin.
Sherry told me last night that Robbie didn't trust her with the dope so he used to hide it in various places.
She also told me that they were in the middle of a war- her and Robbie against everyone else.
- So Bobby called Abby? - Yeah.
Does Butch know he called Abby? Bobby's dealin' with some shit.
He only called Abby 'cause she's easier than us.
- He's got no history with her.
- Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
Whatever's goin' on, we just gotta keep cool.
Shit Bobby saw when he was Carlos Tetonius- - It's gonna take some time to shake that guy.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
Shit.
[Breathes Deeply.]
Are you okay? Word on the street is, Robbie wasn't big-time.
Only dealt to his neighbors.
Yeah.
Which one of those good neighbors didn't like Robbie dealin'? Theresa Moya O.
D.
'd.
If I love her, I hate the person sold her the drugs.
- I'll do background.
- We got Lily Carter too.
She got a son that got busted for drugs.
I'm a mom.
I'd want to protect my kid.
Wait, wait.
She clocked outta work at 8:00 a.
m.
- That's plenty of time to get home and kill Robbie.
- What about her kid, Billy? - He fits the description.
- He met Robbie to score some dope.
- They had a big fight.
- Billy shoved Robbie off the roof.
- What were they fightin' about? - Sherry wanted to get high, Robbie had customers.
- And Stevie was a customer? - Yeah.
Sherry calls Stevie, goes over to his place gets high-which is why Stevie was lying to us.
- And Stevie got Sherry high.
What did Stevie get? - Oral sex.
- We got a new motive for Stevie.
- [Laughing.]
Still one shithead killin' another shithead.
[Laughs.]
Robbie gets pissed at Stevie.
- Stevie pushes his pusher off the roof.
- [Both Chuckle.]
- Or Robbie gets mad at Sherry.
- [Stamps Foot.]
Sherry's stoned.
She doesn't even mean to do it.
It was an accident.
- A lovers' quarrel.
- [Snickers.]
Wish I was workin' this with you.
- [Groans.]
What do you want, Gil? - Detective Hanadarko.
She's not here.
What do you want? I wanna know who you screwed to get this rotation.
You're not coming in here and pulling this shit.
- I got 20 on Mogey.
It's running 10-to-1 for Sergeant Fox.
- Get out of here.
These are the field interview cards Detective Hanadarko requested.
I confirmed the information myself.
All right.
Thanks.
We need to find Ham and Grace.
Are you sure you're okay? - I gotta tell you somethin'.
- [Both Cell Phones Ring.]
[Ham.]
Shit.
- Abby.
- Butch.
Yeah.
What? Come out.
I'll meet you outside.
Sherry's dead.
She was stabbed.
- Well, shit.
- What were you gonna tell me? We got a rat.
You mind takin' off your headband? - Why? - Just do it, please? It's a funny thing.
We found a gold hoop earring on the roof.
Is this yours? I went up on the roof last week lookin' for Billy.
Robbie was there.
We got in a fight.
I told him to stay away from my son, and he ripped my earring off.
That's it.
And that was last week.
- Why did you lie to us? - When you call the police, the police do nothing.
- So you decided to do somethin'.
- No.
Well, someone did.
Yesterday, someone pushed Robbie off the roof and today, they stabbed Sherry.
- Did it with your steak knife.
- If you're tellin' us it wasn't you means we gotta look at Billy.
Unless you got someone else livin' with you.
Why couldn't I go to the crime scene? - We needed background on Theresa Moya.
- Her mother's still alive and she has a 14-year-old son.
Neither one has a record.
That took me about five minutes to find out.
Why couldn't I go to the crime scene? The F.
I.
Cards Ignacious brought in- you look through 'em? - Yeah.
- He did a good job.
Thanks for coming in, Paolo.
I made sure the information you and your friends gave us yesterday was correct.
- And it wasn't.
- [Knocks.]
You're not living with your grandma.
You're living with Lily Carter.
You're living with her because your mother O.
D.
'd a few months ago.
- Your mother was Theresa Moya.
- [Door Opens.]
Paolo, don't say anything, you hear me? He doesn't need to say anything.
Just needs to listen.
Lily's goin' down for Robbie and Sherry's murder.
You want that? - Don't listen to her.
- The woman who took you in after your mother died- - Paolo.
- You want her in prison the rest of her life? - [Lilly.]
Don't say anything.
- Put the cuffs on her.
- [Ham.]
Give me your hands.
- I'm gonna be okay.
- [Lily.]
Ow.
- Let's go.
Come on.
- She didn't do it.
- Hush, Paolo! - They killed my mom.
Robbie hooked her on drugs.
- What did Sherry do? Came to the apartment, said she knew it was me, said she was gonna call the cops.
I just did what everybody wanted me to do.
- Someone ask you to kill Robbie and Sherry? - No, but we all hated 'em.
Right? We hated 'em.
Come with me.
You're I.
A.
- Yeah.
- No rotation.
You're here for Internal Affairs.
- You're here to bust me and my team.
- [Locks Door.]
Nothin' to bust you on.
You don't even take free cable TV.
You've been goin' home every night writing notes- writing shit up on us, on me.
- No.
- "Too forceful with suspects "sloppy paperwork, drinks, cusses engages in behavior unbecoming to a law enforcement official"- - You gotta have a lot of notes.
- This isn't personal, Grace.
I was offered the job.
It was an opportunity to move up, and I took it.
You sold your soul to Brad Gholston for a promotion.
I didn't sell anything.
And sometimes we have to lie to protect what's important.
A-And I'm good at my job.
I've put two cops away in the past four years- a thief and a psycho.
- You would've done exactly the same thing.
- I'd never do what you do.
No, I know you wouldn't.
But whether you like it or not, we need Internal Affairs.
Checks and balances? I knew the second I laid eyes on you you weren't a cop.
I am a cop.
I'm not a cop like you, but I did my job.
Hell, I did two jobs- I.
A.
And this rotation.
I'm sorry it turned out like this.
It turned out like this 'cause you're full of shit! I can't believe I let you have my back.
I came after you.
I walked into that diner for you.
- And I froze.
- Because you don't have it.
- Have what? - The heart of a cop.
Oh, by the way? This isn't personal.
[Squeaking.]
- [Laughing.]
- Rats? - You okay? - Yeah.
- Get your things, Detective.
- Detective? Congratulations.
She'll be workin' with me.
Detective Gholston, may I speak with you? Looks like you're gonna need a partner.
[Laughing.]
I left my charger at your house.
I'd like to get it back, please.
- And in the laundry room, in the dryer, I believe I have- - Kate.
- I need- I need to get this back- - Kate.
- So if you could bring it over, you can just drop it at the front desk.
- Hey- - Frankly, you can leave it there.
- Let's don't do this here.
- Where do you want to, your bed? - We said we'd keep the job out of the relationship.
- That's all I was doin'.
- Bullshit.
You just traded our relationship for the job.
You put a spy in my office.
[Laughs.]
- You used me to get to Grace.
- I did not.
I did not.
Was this whole thing just a set-up? - What? - This.
This, this, this- us.
- This is- has nothin' to do with you and me.
- [Scoffs.]
This has got- You and me-we know what we have.
- You know how I feel.
- This has got everything to do with you and me.
This is my job, bringing down bad cops and you've got one here in your squad.
- She's a drunk.
She's slept with half the department.
- Except for you.
Is that it? - Oh- - Is that what this- this whole thing is about? - Go to hell! - Screw you! - This doesn't matter.
I just want my goddamn charger back.
- Oh, come- [Announcer On TV.]
About 10 seconds left in this round.
Gordon's trying to move in on Philips.
- Thought you wanted to watch the fight.
- That's an old fight.
- Big fight's tomorrow night in Vegas.
- [Announcer Continues.]
Wanna go? Now I'm not sure I'm ready for a night with you in Las Vegas.
- I'll teach you how to play blackjack.
- You mendin' Rhetta's coat - and me watchin' TV- this is much more my style.
- [Whining.]
- You're havin' fun, ain't you? - [Laughs.]
- I'd have a lot more fun in Vegas.
- [Knocking.]
Come in! - What's wrong? - Leon Cooley just tried to commit suicide.
Tried to.
I'm meeting Johnny.
We're driving up to McAlester.
Do you want to come with us? No.
[Door Opens.]
I have to go.
