Did the reporter talk to anyone else? What do you mean? Is there anything else I should know about, Mac? No.
The other guys, they they into anything? I don't know.
I mean, fuck, there's over 400 guys working out of the 132.
What about bringing us out to Staten Island? what was she talking about? Ever done that before? Ray.
Fetu Autufuga is a bad man, okay? I fucking went out there four times on a domestic.
This guy broke his wife's orbital cavity, almost blinded her.
So why don't you tell that to the reporter? She won't talk, Ray, okay? She's scared.
She won't fucking press charges, so this guy keeps coming over and fucking her up over and over again.
[SCOFFS.]
I tailed him, Ray.
I planted drugs on him, and I drove him out to the 132 where I know judges won't tolerate that kind of shit.
[SIGHS.]
You planted drugs on him? Ray I swear to you.
This guy is a fucking piece of shit.
I'm gonna need some blow and an untraceable gun.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]

You went out.
How much is Sam paying you? - Not enough.
- Then why you do it? [KNOB SQUEAKS, WATER RUNNING.]
[SIGHS.]
I was in eighth place four weeks ago.
Almost dropped out of the race.
Then I got a call from Sam Winslow.
- Yeah? - And suddenly my face is on billboards and TV commercials.
I'm in second fucking place.
This might actually happen.
When something like this comes along, you don't stop to think maybe I'm not that person.
Wipe the blood off your face.
You were never there.
Anyone asks, you had dinner at the office with Sam, stayed late to talk about the campaign.
Okay.
Where were you tonight? I was with Sam at the office, strategizing.
Good.
Don't go straight home.
What? Take the cab to Midtown, then take another one home.
Shower, change, but make sure you get to work on time.
Don't cancel anything today.
What are you gonna do? Don't worry about what I'm gonna do.
Forget you ever met me.
[CELL PHONE BEEPING.]

[SAM.]
How's she doing? Put her on your schedule.
Last night you worked late.

You think my father's a piece of shit, don't you? Excuse me? Well, he's just like any other fucking felon, right? What? Let me tell you something.
That man he carried a lot of weight on him.
He did 20 years at Walpole for fuck's sake.
He's tough as nails.
And that's what a boy needs, you know? Somebody to teach him how to be strong.
He always tried to do that.
He didn't always do it right.
And you can't trust the man, ever.
And maybe he did beat on us a little too often and ran around on our mother when she was dying of cancer.
And if you cross him, he'll probably kill you.
But he loves me.
He loves me.
And right now I don't got a whole lot of people that do.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER OVER POLICE RADIO.]
What are you gonna do with all this shit? - Where's the silencer? - I'm not an armory, Ray.
I don't have suppressors laying around in the house.
[GUN CLICKS.]
I'm gonna text you an address.
When I do, I want you to call it in, okay? Let me come with you.
No, you want to help, send somebody you trust when you call it in.
What are they gonna find there, Ray? Go get your kid, take him over to my brother's gym.

[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS, DOOR OPENS, CLOSES.]
Good-bye, Mr.
Sandro.
[ELEVATOR DOOR OPENS, CLOSES.]
[SIGHS.]
Okay.
It was my fault.
- What? - Last night's situation.
I've been thinking about it, and it was my bad.
Look, Ray, I wouldn't put you through all this trouble, but I really need her.
You bother to check her out before you got into all this? Obviously not enough.
- Well, you should have.
- That's what you do.
You ever hear of Featureflix? Seventy-five billion dollars of Pacific's money to acquire the world's largest streaming service.
It'll be our growth driver.
Doug was the only hold out, and now that we've acquired it, we need a specific piece of property, 85 acres, publicly owned, to house it.
You know what's on it now? A prison.
So I made an offer.
A fair offer.
The mayor blocked it.
Hundred thousand dollars every week until the election.
Once she's elected, I double it.
You look like shit.
I'll get you a drink.
Sit down.
[LIQUOR POURING.]
[GROANS.]
There's something I've been meaning to ask you, and it's none of my business, so you don't have to answer if you don't want to, but - That night - I was tired.
Tired? I just I just wanted it all to stop.
And then there she was.
Who? Abby.
Like she'd been there all along, you know? And I I started to think that without her there wasn't much for me, you know? [DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
Look at me.
I'm glad you're here.

Excuse me, my man.
Yeah, how can I help you? Um, I'm here to see my father.
Uh, he was brought in last night.
His name's Mickey Donovan.
- [COMPUTER BEEPS.]
- Donovan? You got to put your hands up, right? First thing you got to learn is defense.
- [JIMMY.]
Not punching? - Defense first, kid.
[PUNCHES THUDDING.]
Heard there was a fucked-up drug deal downtown.
Seems like some Wall Street douchebag and his Samoan dealer shot each other.
Real John Wayne shit.
Yeah.
You all right, Ray? - Huh? - Yeah, sure.
I'm gonna get Jimmy back to Am before she gets pissed.
- I'll see you at the bar.
- Yeah.
[MAC.]
All right, kid, let's go.
Hey, you should bring him back.
He's got potential.
[MAC.]
Hey, thanks, anything you need.
- How was it? - Eh.
I talked to Bridget.
Yeah? Congratulations.
Thanks.
He's a good kid.
Yeah, well, you know, they're young.
Well, you were young.
You hear about Mick? Think we should fly out there? What for? I don't know.
Say good-bye.
Make sure we got no regrets.
I don't got any regrets.
You? No.
Fuck him.
Mick.
Mickey.
Pop! What? Just making sure.
Making sure what? I didn't break you out so you could fucking die on me.
[SLOWLY.]

[CELL PHONE RINGING.]
[CELL PHONE BEEPS.]
- Yeah? - Mickey broke out.
What? I don't know.
Bunchy must have helped him.
Look, Ray, I don't know what the fuck happened.
But he almost killed a fucking guard.
So Bunchy's now not here, and Mickey is out now.
What are we gonna do? Ray? Yeah.
A-are you okay? Sure.
S-so what are we gonna do? Mickey is going to kill me.
