Retread

Morning, my little retreads.
Good news, bad news.
Good news, you all passed
the power and range test,
so you're one step
away from reinstatement
in Chicago's finest.
Bad news, you need to requalify
in all current laws, rules, and regs.
You pass this test,
and you're back to full duty.
Officer"Russ-ek."
Am I boring you?
No, Officer. No.
Now, where were you assigned
when you had your little misstep?
Intelligence.
Well, let's hope you've got some.
Good luck.
Thanks.

Agg assault. Two armed robberies.
All right. Any witnesses talk?
Most took off, but Patrol grabbed
two of the poker players.
They're outside in the alley.
We got a Wes Arben. He owns the joint.
Did two years in Danville on distro.
Word is he runs half the coke
between here and Bridgeport.
The other guy is Zachary Munn.
Goes by Zaco.
Just did a six-month stint
in Sheridan for burglary.
Why we taking this, Sarge?
Rip of an illegal poker game?
Feels like Robbery/Homicide.
Hailey, get Arben's statement.
Kev, pods and cam.
Kim, come on, you and me,
we'll take the burglar.
Let's go.
Where do you keep the cash?
In a red duffel bag.
I know the law. The game was legit.
We got two dead bodies, and one's 19.
It's not legit.
But we don't give
a rat's ass about poker.
What did you see?
Whole lot of nothing.
A couple of pricks in masks with guns.
What'd they look like?
I don't know.
I was busy grabbing
my hands on the floor.
How many people were at the table?
Six, maybe.
Okay, great. We're gonna need names.
Oh, I don't know names.
Look, I'm the new guy, all right?
It's my cousin's game.

Yeah, he's got a repair job in Cicero.
Yeah, a carpenter.
Are you done with him?
Yeah, you're good.
Just leave your contact info

Uh-huh.
All right. What do we got?
Techs found fresh blood
leading out the rear door,
and Arvin said one of the offenders
got winged in the shoulder,
so it could be his. They're running it.
The Chevy Malibu was
caught five minutes away
on a red light cam
two blocks from the robbery
going 70 miles an hour.
Wisconsin plates came back hot.
I have a BOLO out. No hits yet.
And our owner, Arben,
what do we know about him?
Really just old school, Sarge.
Lives big, likes to flash his
drug money and throw parties.
It's a big cash game.
Honestly sounds like an inside job.
Agreed. Let's chase that.
Who knew about the poker game?
Who knew it was so fat?
Let's dig into Arben's crew,
see if he was beefing with anyone.
Let's move quick.
Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt.

He is a good CI.
Been staying on the up and up.
Is he okay?
Practically saved my life
He's fine, he covered for you.
Adam, IAD talked to Voight.
They found your slugs
in the wall at the poker room.
He's gonna backdate
a stolen weapons report.
You gotta get rid of your UC gun,
and he's not gonna loop in anybody else.
- I gotta call him.
- Adam. Adam.
I think I should be working off book
- on this thing with you guys.
- Honey, just stop.
This is exactly
what you should not be doing.
I do not like this.
I cannot have everybody protecting me.
You can, because that is what you need.
You've got the team.
They will find the offenders fast
and will keep you out of it.

So this is your weekly poker game.
It's not with the old timers
at the cop bar.
Sometimes.
Zaco invited me.
I was covert.
I was you know, I was
listening for information.
I just miss it, Kim.
Chasing defenders
into yards with crazy dogs
and split second decisions and the,
you know, adrenaline, feeling alive.
The poker game, it just
gave me that for a second.
These are the things
we tell each other now, right?
When you're in it, you tell me.
And I know that it's hard
because you nearly died.
But I get that.
I get it, too,
because I've been through it.
But you have to tell me
so I can help you.
Look at me.
I've got you.

- These are our offenders.
Techs just reached out.
Blood trail DNA from the poker rip
came back to this guy, Troy Bala.
That's his brother Clay Bala.
They live around the corner.
Kev's taking a peek right now.
- Okay.
- The Bala brothers like to rob banks.
Modern Frank and Jesse James.
No cowboy boots,
but they like their guns.
A year ago, they hit
Beacon Bank and Trust.
Killed a security guard.
Case was dropped when
the only eyewitness recanted.
How did they know about the poker game?
We figure Arben sold them the score.
Definite inside job.
The brothers grew up with Arben.
They're tight.
We got a hold of Clay's cell phone.
He made three calls to Arben
the night of the rip.
The last one was
ten minutes before the rip.
No way that was a coincidence.
Go ahead, Kev.
The house is quiet right now.
Got a black Camaro sitting out front.
Illinois tag. Nora Tom Zebra 3581.
Camaro's registered to Clay Bala.
We got paper on the house?
Signed and ready to go.

running away from the house
five minutes after the gunshots.

I saw that Jeep leaving the scene
when we showed up, Sarge.
Okay, you get the tags?
No, it was dark,

it was a Jeep Wrangler.
We all saw Clay's gunshot wound, right?

Somebody was trying to save his life.
Somebody who knew exactly what to do.
Someone like a cop.
You got something to say, say it.
Adam drives a Jeep Wrangler.

Hey, what the hell is going on?
Zaco just dialed me. Is he driving?
Yeah, we lost his signal.
We're trying to get a ping on his phone.
Why'd he go mobile?
Arben made him get in his car.
We lost him going south on Wabash.
All right, okay, so they're
headed right towards me.
