[SIGHS]
What happened to real soul food?
Now they got goat cheese in the grits?
People ain't standing an hour
and a half outside, for no reason.
They gotta be doing something right.
Problem is, you're still
used to that prison chow.
Try new things, old man.
Say what?
Those are good grits, trust me.
Mm. I don't know.
We might have to let Jordan decide.
He is coming, right?
Uh, Jordan? Something probably came up.
You know, at that age,
it's always something
with their friends.
So what's the real reason?
I don't know.
It might take him a while
to wrap his mind
around this whole thing.
He need a little time.
He'll be all right.
Now, that I get.
You know, you ain't gotta do that.
I ain't gotta do what?
Try and protect me.
Manage it.
That ain't on you.
I can handle it.
I know.
I been taking truck driving classes,
trying to work on getting my CDL.
Buddy of mine told me about
an opening for drivers,
makes decent money.
That's good.
I'd like to start paying rent
at the building, son.
Handle that one too.
Okay.
Well, you bring me some of
that good food off the road,
and maybe you got you a deal.
You sure you don't want that ride?
You don't always gotta take
the train, man.
I prefer it, man. Best view of the city.
All right.
Besides, I know you gotta get to work.
I actually got plenty of time.
Wait, come on, man.
This watch too damn new
to be breaking on me already.
Probably just a dead battery.
I just changed this battery, though.
Well, you couldn't be in a better place.
Jewelers Row is right up there.
You're damn right. It's sure is.
You sure you good?
Don't worry about me, son.
I'll be in the best seat in the house.
Damn.

[SOMBER MUSIC]
♪
You all right?
I'm fine.
What happened?
Violent two-man smash-and-grab
turned double homicide.
The first victim had sustained
a pretty heavy beating
even before I pulled up.
I ID'd him as the owner, George Burton.
He died from a skull fracture
after one of the offenders smashed
his head on the counter.
The second victim, Corey Westbrooke,
died from a GSW to the neck.
Both the offenders fled
out the back in all black.
Patrol back there said
they found a witness
that saw the offenders fleeing.
Black Jeep, no plates. BOLO's out.
There any cameras inside?
Yeah, there was cameras in there.
But the offender smashed them out.
Sarge, I know this here's
a robbery-homicide,
but we gotta take this.
Oh, it's ours.
All right, have Forensics
lick the scene dry.
- Let's go. Talk to every witness.
- All right.
Hey, you good to take the wife?
- Yeah, I got her.
- All right.
We were looking at necklaces
by the window.
And there was a smash.
They were inside.
The owner wouldn't give them
the combination to the safe,
so they hit him.
And they screamed at us,
and they took our wallets.
And then you arrived.
They took your wallets?
They said if we called the police
that they would use
our licenses to find us.
Okay.
Okay.
We weren't even supposed to be here.
You weren't supposed to be there?
What does that mean, Mrs. Westbrooke?
We were just walking by
when I saw the necklaces in the window.
How much longer is he gonna be here?
Why haven't they moved him?
Soon as they're clearing
everything for evidence.
- I don't want him here.
- I understand that.
I know this is hard,
but we're almost done.
Can you tell me if you saw any faces?
Did you see any skin,
anything like that?
No.
No, I didn't see anything.
Look, I don't wanna talk to you anymore.
I just wanna go be with my husband.
Okay.
- Sir.
- No, you can't.
- I'm sorry.
- That's my husband.
It's my husband.
Sir? How are you doing?
Officer Atwater with Intelligence.
Are you going inside
to inspect the bodies?
Forensics just cleared.
Have you completed your
preliminaries already?
- Yes.
- All right.
I got one quick question about that GSW
to the neck, Corey Westbrooke.
If he would have been
reached immediately,
would he have survived?
I can't answer that with authority.
Yeah, I know, but it's not
for the record, sir.
Look, there are 1,000 factors
that could affect survival.
I understand that.
It's not for the record.
He still may have lost
the same amount of blood in transport.
Okay, but if the blood loss would
have been lessened immediately,
pressure would have been
applied in here?
Or if I would have got to him sooner,
would he have survived?
♪
Yes.
He may have survived.
♪
We get any cameras from our canvass?
Yeah, one. Covert across the street.
- Kim's working it now.
- Okay, good.
What else?
No pops on the BOLO.
Jeep was hot.
Nothing yet from Forensics.
All right. Ballistics?
Yeah, we do have something there.
Slugs found at the scene
match a weapon used
at a cell phone store robbery
two weeks ago.
Details match our offenders' MO.
Two offenders, same stats, came in,
smashed windows, cameras, took IDs,
and grabbed everything they could carry.
Well, that sounds good.
Except Robbery-Homicide's
got zero on them.
All right, what about our victims?
George Burton, 45, no kids,
never married, no priors,
bought out the previous owner
ten years ago.
And one Corey Westbrooke.
Married to Teresa Westbrooke.
One kid, Jonathan Westbrooke,
16 years old.
None of them have priors.
Got something off the covert cam
- from across the street.
- Okay.
Camera clocked the start of the robbery.
Okay, so
shows the outside of the store.
Here's Teresa and Corey Westbrooke.
Here comes our offenders.
Now Teresa looks right
into the offender's face.
A second later, he pulls his mask down
and and smashes the glass.
But right there,
Teresa saw one of their faces.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
She lied to me.
Hmm.
[KNOCKS]
Mrs. Westbrooke, Officer Kevin Atwater.
How are we doing?
What's going on?
I hope I didn't catch you at a bad time.
I was just hoping I could
ask you a few more questions.
I already answered all your questions.
Yes, ma'am. Yes, you did.
But sometimes we have
muddy recollections
immediately after a traumatic event,
so it helps to re-interview.
Is it okay if I step inside and we talk?
I have family here.
I don't want to upset my son.
Understood.
Would you be more comfortable
at the district?
No.
Just ask what you need to.
I know I asked you
this question already.
But do you think you saw
any of the offenders' faces?
They wore masks.
But before the robbery, do you
think you saw any faces?
No.
So Mrs. Westbrooke, what you should know
is that we do have footage
from before the robbery.
And it looks like you saw somebody.
No, I didn't.
I know you're scared.
I know they do have your license.
But we can leave a detail squad car
right outside to make sure that
you and your family feels protected.
Like you protected my husband?
♪
I saw you had a choice.
You could have gotten to him in time,
but you went for the other man.
Why did you go to him instead of Corey?
- Why?
- Mom.
- Is everything okay?
- Everything's fine, baby.
I didn't see anything.
There was a glare.
I couldn't see anything.
Thank you.
♪
[GROANS]
[EXHALES]
Hey.
- You get anything from Teresa?
- Yeah. Yeah.
I was actually just about
to come find you, Sarge.
She claims she saw a glare,
couldn't make out anybody's face.
So she lied.
Well, she's scared.
She just lost her husband.
She's got a kid.
The offenders know where she lives.
Okay, well, we can send Patrol,
sit on their house, make her feel safe.
Already got a detail sitting on them.
But we might wanna send
somebody else to go try with her.
They might have better luck.
She blames me.
Blames you for what?
I mean, nobody could
get through that glass.
It wasn't really like that, Sarge.
There was this moment before
where before the door closed,
I probably could have got the Corey,
but I went for the other victim.
No idea why.
Hey.
Got a hit on the robbery.
My CI got word that a watch showed up
at Royal Pawn, yellow-gold Piaget,
match for our stolen jewelry.
They open up real early in the morning.
Okay, good.
All right, get Burgess
to take a run at Teresa.
Hit the pawn shop with Adam tomorrow.
Yes, sir.
I don't sell stolen merchandise.
We know that it's here.
Who sold it to you?
I can't tell you something
that never happened.
I don't have it.
Hey, whoa, where are you going?
Hey, hey, hey, hey. Don't touch that.
[TENSE MUSIC]
♪
Whoa, whoa, whoa, stop!
What are you doing?
I'm doing exactly what you're doing.
I'm not cooperating,
because we got two dead bodies,
and it seems like you think
we're playing games, but we're not.
I'll take everything in here
into inventory,
because it all look like
stolen merchandise to me.
Well, I got receipts on all of it.
You can have as many receipts
as you want,
but that don't mean
that it's not stolen.
We still gotta take it in and clear it.
He can't do this, right?
Who sold you the stolen jewelry?
Just give us a name. It's that simple.
- That's all we need.
- Whoa, would you just stop?
Stop me.
Go ahead, try to stop me, I dare you.
I don't think this is
what you want, man.
I don't have cameras. I don't get names.
You got eyes, don't you?
The guy who sold it was white.
Maybe 6 feet, buck 60.
You got an age,
defining features, tattoos?
He had a hat on.
What else?
He had a tattoo on his neck,
looked like barbed wire or something.
Thank you.
♪
Damn.
Lot of white dudes with
barbed wire tattoos, ain't it?
We can narrow them down
with armed robbery, and assault.
Mm-hmm.
Hey, so that in there.
What?
The man wasn't gonna talk
if we ain't press him hard.
You know that.
All right, I got 12 hits.
Yeah, I got 8.
All right, let's run them by the owner.

You got nothing to worry about.
You're in good hands, sir.
Kev.
What happened? Why did you stop chasing?
Looked like he was
losing a lot of blood.
I had to apply pressure.
It was a clean exit wound;
I told you that.
I cleared him.
Well, I made a different call.
All right, we might have had him.
I'm trying to figure out
I don't know what else
you want me to say.
I made a different call.
I didn't really have
the eyes to really tell
how bad the shot was,
so I did what I had to do.
I'll take whatever heat
I gotta take if I
You know that's not what I'm saying.
- What are you saying then?
- Bro, it's me.
Kev, what is going on?
Nothing.
- If you need to talk
- No.
If you want to talk
I don't wanna talk.
I made a different call.
I'm not about to regret
stopping a man from bleeding.
All right. All right.
We'll work the scene.
I'll call the team.
That's all we got?
Patrol didn't have any luck.
Offenders fled in a
second getaway vehicle,
Toyota RAV4, most likely hot,
had no plates.
PODs and red lights
lost it three blocks back.
Got a dead end with our pawn shop owner.
Guy looked at our six-pack, ID'd a man
who's currently serving 20 in Danville.
Forensics also checked in,
got nothing so far
no gloves, no masks.
Listen, these men
are not smarter than us.
They're smashing up stores
with sledgehammers.
We get ahead of this right now.
All right,
so where are we at with Teresa?
Nowhere.
She told me the same thing she told Kev.
There was a glare.
Yeah, and she's lying.
Yes, but she's sticking to it.
Well, then find something
that will make her
tell the truth, find some leverage.
Or we'll charge her with obstruction.
Sarge, she just lost her husband.
Yeah.
And someone just lost a wife, a mother.
Okay, these men are escalating.
They're aggressive.
Teresa cannot lie to us.
All right, find something
that'll break her,
or we charge her.
[KNOCK AT DOOR]
Hey, I saw the light on,
wanted to make sure everything's okay.
Yeah. Why wouldn't it be?
You missed Spades night.
Mm, damn, I forgot
all about Spades night.
- You're right, you know
- It's okay.
I understand.
The kids, they finally
wanted to partner up with me,
and we lost every single game.
[LAUGHS]
What you doing in there?
Looks like you could use a break.
How about a drink?
Yeah, come on in.
It's hard to say.
I just feel like
I made the wrong choice.
Tried to save a man
I couldn't even save.
An impossible choice
is what that sounds like.
And that doesn't sound
like a choice at all.
Definitely had a choice.
Trust me.
I saw both of them, and I chose.
I don't know why I chose him.
Maybe there's not a why.
I mean, if I could
have just seen George,
the store owner, if I could have
just known what state he was in,
I would have triaged for a fact.
Imagine if I can stop
that door before it closes,
then the offenders probably
wouldn't even got the owner.
Or if I could have got
to Corey and Teresa
before they ran for the door.
Hell, if my watch would have
stopped a minute sooner.
You think you're responsible
for the watch?
You know, you do this thing.
You wanna take on everything,
where you think you're
accountable for everything
this building, the neighborhood,
the job, Jordan, Vanessa, me
but no man can carry everything.
And I don't even think it has
anything to do with all that.
Maybe, maybe not.
But you wanna be accountable for this.
And this ain't something
you can be accountable for.
Neither one of those choices
would have been right.
Regret.
Now, that's something
I know a thing or two about.
It'll swallow you whole if you let it.

I-I don't wanna be here.
And the last thing
I wanna do is make things
harder for you or your family.
Then don't.
But I do need to know what you saw.
I didn't see anything.
I know you want justice
for your husband.
I want my family safe.
I didn't see anything.
One more question
before I go, Mrs. Westbrooke.
When was the last time you
talked to Devin Martin's parents?
What?
Devin Martin.
He never really recovered
from being beaten
by your son and his friends.
That happened over a year ago,
and that family has moved on
from what happened,
- so what does that
- No, actually,
losing the possibility of a
scholarship changes things.
His leg never healed,
so he'll probably never play ball again.
What the hell are you doing?
It's funny, there wasn't
really any evidence
on that case because Devin
wouldn't speak up.
But for whatever reason,
he was willing to talk now.
Lying to the police is illegal, Teresa.
You're obstructing justice.
And trust me,
if you get charged with that,
it's gonna hurt worse.
Worse than you coming after my son?
I'm so sorry.

attempted murder of a police officer,
aggravated assault,

Wrong.
You do.
Just tell us. Give us his name.

he just said about solitary?
You know what we can make sure
doesn't happen in solitary?
Ain't gonna be no calls,
no visits, or no letters.
You'll never see your girlfriend,
or your daughter again, trust me.

What happened?
Violent two-man smash-and-grab
turned double homicide.
The first victim had sustained
a pretty heavy beating
even before I pulled up.
I ID'd him as the owner, George Burton.
He died from a skull fracture
after one of the offenders smashed
his head on the counter.
The second victim, Corey Westbrooke,
died from a GSW to the neck.
Both the offenders fled
out the back in all black.
Patrol back there said
they found a witness
that saw the offenders fleeing.
Black Jeep, no plates. BOLO's out.
There any cameras inside?
Yeah, there was cameras in there.

We were looking at necklaces
by the window.

They were inside.
The owner wouldn't give them
the combination to the safe,
so they hit him.
And they screamed at us,
and they took our wallets.
And then you arrived.
They took your wallets?
They said if we called the police
that they would use
our licenses to find us.
Okay.
Okay.
We weren't even supposed to be here.

Teresa, come here, come here.
I need you to hold this down for me.
Hold this tight.
Teresa?
- No.
- Come on, Teresa.
- Will you call it in? Call 911.
- No, I'm not helping him.
And you shouldn't be helping him.
Hang on.
No, this is not right.
You don't choose him.
50-21 David, shots fired by the police.
I got an offender down with two GSWs.
I need you to roll an ambo
to 4826 Lawrence.
That's 4826 Lawrence.
No, this is not right.
[GASPING]
Hang on.
He's not the one that gets to live.
Jonathan.
Jonathan, baby.
Jonathan, where are you, baby?
Hold on tight. Yeah. Yeah.
Hey. Bro.
They wrapped they scene,
they cleared me.
Can't complain.
All right, good. Good, good.
Patrol's gonna get their asses
handed to them for rolling.
Aiden's on his way to the hospital.
Word is he's gonna make a full recovery.
Lockup keeper confirmed it.
Yeah?
Confirmed what?
Look, Morrison said
he was calling his lawyer,
called Aiden instead.
Must have tipped him off
that Teresa could ID him.
Everything we gave him is null and void.
All right, let's get the book going.
Hey, Kev.
You remember in training
about multiple victims
who you choose, remember that?
No, I don't remember.
'Cause it isn't there.
We don't have it.
Look, you save who you can save.
