Blue Bloods s12e02 Episode Script

So that's that? We're dropping it? The D.
A.
says drop it, so we drop it.
All of a sudden we're by-the-book boneheads? By-the-book boneheads? I don't know, it just came out.
You get my point.
Look, I'm already in the doghouse with Crawford, okay? So she says don't touch it So what? Touch it anyway.
Wow, in this day and age, advising me to inappropriately touch.
Come on, you know what I'm saying.
We've done this many times before.
Okay, not this time, not with this D.
A.
, not now.
You keep saying this stuff.
What makes you so sure? My gut instinct.
Oh, yes.
"And on the eighth day, God created the Reagan gut instinct.
" Give me a break.
You think I'm making excuses? And Bingo was his name-o.
Why would I do that? - 'Cause you're scared of her.
- Really? Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
You're really not pulling any punches today, are you? I've been pulling punches for months, and I'm sick and tired of it.
We're not touching it, end of story.
Where are you going? Back to my office to dot my I's and cross my t's like a good little by-the-book bonehead.
We're in the middle of a fight.
You can't walk out.
Don't got no fight left in me, sweetheart.
For the love of God, that means you have fight left.
So, is it true? Of course it's true.
But can you be absolutely certain that it's true? I feel like we're having this conversation in quicksand.
Well, how would you feel without that thought? That it's absolutely true.
What are you talking about? Come on, just answer the question.
Danny, stop.
No, just answer it.
No, I mean Danny, stop! - He's alive.
- Calling a bus.
No, no time.
Get the door.
Excuse me.
Sergeant Reagan.
I just got a call that my wife was rushed here.
Yes, right around the corner, room 119.
Thank you.
Sarge, everything's okay.
Your wife is fine.
Doctors wanted to make sure it was just a sprain.
What happened? She twisted her ankle chasing down a perp.
She was off-duty.
Apparently she saw a guy snatch a woman's purse, - took off after him.
- In those? Pretty sure these were responsible for the twisted ankle.
All right.
But she's fine? Barely a scratch.
Thank you.
I appreciate it.
Um how come you guys brought her all the way downtown? Happened a couple blocks from here.
Thank you.
Your mind races after things like this, and I keep coming back to the same thought.
If you guys didn't show up when you did Thankfully, we did.
Yeah, but if you didn't, Matthew wouldn't be here.
We were in the right place at the right time for a reason.
You sure were.
Look, I'll be honest with you, I've never really had a nice thing to say about the police.
But you saved baby bro's life.
There's nothing bigger than that.
Just doing our job.
I wish there was some way I could repay you.
Well, the best way that you can help us is to tell us who did this to you.
I wish I could.
There's nothing I want more than to catch the guys who did this, but I just don't remember anything.
The doctors think he blacked out.
Any little bit helps.
I'm sorry, there's nothing there.
You say you want to catch the guys - who did this to you? - Yeah, of course.
Do you remember how many there were, since you said it was guys? Um I'm not sure.
- More than three? - Maybe.
I don't know.
Anyone familiar among them? Someone from the neighborhood? I didn't see any faces.
Just a lot of bodies out of nowhere.
So they came at you from behind? No, uh I don't know.
Look, we we know this happens a lot in the neighborhood.
There's a crew running around doing this to people three and four times a week.
You're probably afraid of retaliation; We get it.
But until somebody steps up to stop these guys, it's just gonna keep happening.
They left you for dead, Matthew.
Maybe the next person won't be so lucky.
We may not be in the right place at the right time the next time this happens.
I hear what you're saying.
I'll tell you what Let the kid get some rest, okay? I'll talk to him.
Okay.
I gotta go to work! What's going on? Hey, you in the truck! Move it, already.
Move! Come on! I said no, thank you! Too bad about you, lady.
I already did it, now pay up.
I'm not paying you.
- What'd you say? Huh? - Get away from me.
Hey! Get away! What are you doing, you psycho? Get away from my car.
Get away.
Get away from my car! Give me my money! - Get away from my car! - Where you going, huh? - Get away! - You can't go anywhere.
- Come on! - Psycho! Hey.
Police! You're under arrest.
Turn around.
I didn't do nothin'.
Put your hands behind your back.
I was just cleaning her car, man.
You all right, ma'am? Gotta be honest with you, boss.
When I saw the video of your detail cuffing him, ear-to-ear grin.
Thank you.
Millions of people watched it also, not all of them grinning.
Long time coming, boss.
The people are happy somebody's finally standing up and saying enough is enough.
I wouldn't count the mayor among those people.
What the squeegee guy did was illegal.
What the boss did was completely on the up-and-up.
Rank and file's gonna love it, too.
The mayor, however, will see it as a personal insult.
So you're saying I did it intentionally just to piss him off? No.
I think you had the guy collared because you legitimately thought it was the right thing to do.
I also think that about halfway through the whole thing it occurred to you how this would play with the mayor, and decided to go through with it anyway.
Don't be ridiculous.
Nobody thinks of that much stuff in the heat of the moment.
Have it your way, but probably best to reach out to the mayor before he reaches out to you.
Reach out for what? Well, to apologize for any imagined slight.
I can't apologize for something he imagined.
Yeah, I could have stayed in the car.
But I felt it was important the rank and file see who gave the order.
And why not? That kind of harassment is a quality-of-life issue.
And you know what, sometimes it's good to show who's boss.
You've been summoned.
You know, the mayor in Jaws wasn't the hero of that movie.
Something to think about.
Oh! - Hey, you.
- Hey, Jamie, oh What are you, sneaking up on me? Didn't mean to scare you.
Just saying hi.
Hi.
How's the ankle? Fit as a fiddle, like nothing ever happened.
Everything okay? Oh, yeah.
Just paperwork, you know.
Everything okay with you? Yeah.
Well, something, um, actually is kind of on my mind.
- Oh? - Excuse me, Sarge.
Last night when I picked you up at the hospital, we were all the way downtown.
Yeah, that's where they took me.
Right, but you said you were going out with your girlfriends on the Upper East Side.
I have no idea why they took me there, Jamie.
- You'd have to ask them.
- Yeah.
Right.
I'm sure it's nothing.
Um I'll let you get back to it.
Hey! Look what the fat dragged in.
- Danny! - I meant cat.
That's all right, Baez.
I used to Reagan's insecurities getting the best of him.
I try to be the bigger man.
You most certainly are the larger man.
You're right.
- And you're much, much thinner.
- Hey! You know, we're trying to work here.
What is it that you want, anyway? A word in private, if you don't mind, Detective.
You're not gonna eat me, are you? Seriously? Come on.
Step right here into my office.
What can I do you for? I need your help with something.
Okay, what is it? I got something serious to say, and I don't know how to say it.
Has to do with your sister.
Okay, I'm listening.
What am I supposed to do with this? Tell me what you think.
I think I'm gonna pretend I never saw it.
Hey.
Hope you're here with some good news.
Sorry, Matthew doesn't remember anything.
Come on, it sure seemed like he wanted to tell us something.
Look, sorry, guys, he's just not comfortable, okay? But I appreciate everything you guys did for him.
And I wanted you to hear it from me.
That's it? He won't reconsider? - Take it easy, guys.
- Uh-huh.
Take it easy.
What now? Pardon me.
- Sorry.
Sorry.
- Oh! - Whoa.
- Pardon me.
Sorry.
See you tomorrow.
Look at this scrub, man.
Look like a lick to me.
- Oh, stumbling! - Yo, hard day at work? Hey, man, I know you got something for me.
- Easy.
- Hit him, man.
Get him! Come on, man, let's go! Let's go, let's go! - Police! Hey! - This a cop?! Sobering news, ain't it? Hell nah! Sorry to keep you waiting, Commissioner.
You always keep me waiting.
Is that some kind of psych-out thing they taught you in business school? You think I kept you waiting as a tactic? Sure do.
Well, I can see we're getting this meeting off on the right foot.
Well, we didn't twiddle our thumbs for ten minutes.
I did.
You arrested that squeegee guy in broad daylight to show me up.
My detail arrested that man.
Under your orders.
Because he grew violent and posed an immediate threat.
And the reason you got out of your vehicle? In the event my detail needed backup; Standard procedure.
More like you knew every phone would be out and recording it, and you wanted to get your close-up.
You think I wanted to create a media frenzy? Sure do.
Is there a point to this meeting? Apologize for the grandstanding.
Read a statement to the press.
Have Garrett write something up.
I wasn't grandstanding.
I'll even give you some benefit of the doubt.
Garrett can write that you couldn't have seen the effects of your action in the moment, but you now recognize the perception was you were making some kind of point.
So grandstanding.
I'm sure Garrett has some more neutral word he can use.
For me to mealy mouth? For you to deliver with all the force and certainty you are famous for.
At any place of business anywhere in this world, if your boss thinks you made him look bad, you apologize and you fix it.
And you're damn grateful to be given the opportunity.
That is all, Commissioner.
One, two, three, four, five, six.
And that's just in the last month, Ozzie.
I don't know any of these people.
And I don't know what you're talking about.
Yes, you do.
Look, I understand you think it's very unlucky that you were the first person that I caught.
But in fact, it makes you the lucky one.
Because you get first crack at making a deal.
So give me the names of the guys that were with you.
No deal.
You know, I understand.
The city's turned upside down on its head.
We can't jump on every crime.
You know that.
So why wouldn't you take advantage, right? I got nothing to say to you.
I caught you red-handed, and I got you for attempted robbery and assault.
Both felonies.
If that was enough to put any time on me, we wouldn't be talking.
I'd be on the back of the bus on my way to Rikers.
But we are talking.
Astute point, but the thing is, what's gonna happen when I put you in a lineup, and I parade a bunch of people through, and they all point the finger at you? You got a better chance of attempted robbery and assault than any of these people pointing fingers.
And that's because they're afraid of you and your crew? 'Cause they live in the real world.
A place you should visit.
Last chance.
Names? Do what you gotta do.
I'll be back home by dinner.
You know, you're right again.
You will be home by dinner.
In fact you're free to go right now.
- Seriously? - Yes! In fact, why don't I give you a ride home.
Oh.
We out.
Actually, I think I'm good.
Oh, no, I insist.
Don't do this, man.
Please.
I thought you'd appreciate a ride home.
My crew sees me getting out of your car, you know what they gonna think.
They're gonna think I'm a courteous individual.
Come on, man, quit playing.
They're gonna think I snitched.
What does your crew do to snitches? Please! Let's let's work something out.
You already know what I want.
Anything but that.
Look, either you snitch, or you look like a snitch.
Either way I lose.
Well, that's why they say crime doesn't pay.
Oh, come on, man.
They're right there.
I see 'em.
Last chance.
I can't.
You know I can't.
Thank you for driving with us.
I'll get your door.
What's up with this, man? Cops everywhere.
It's crazy.
Right this way, sir.
Appreciate all your help.
You need anything at all, feel free to give me a call, okay? Have a good one.
Hey.
There you are.
Come in, come in.
Shut the door.
Thanks for stopping by on short notice.
Yeah, like I texted, I was just next door in court.
Yeah, but nobody saw you come in here, right? Lots of people saw me come in.
I went through security and the whole thing.
Yeah, but not your sister.
No.
Good, good, good.
Sit down, sit down.
Anthony, is, uh, everything okay? - What's going on? - I need your assistance with something, and as usual, your brother Danny was less than useful.
Help with what? You talk to Danny already about this? Yeah, and he told me to take a hike.
- I second that motion.
- Oh, come on, Jamie.
I expect that from your brother but not from you.
Yeah, well You know what they say in city government behind your back? - I don't.
- They say forget Danny Reagan.
The real rising star of the PD is Jamie.
He's the one that one day could fill the old man's shoes.
Even if that's true And I'm not sure it is Maybe it's 'cause I'm smart enough not to go touching the third rail.
All right, I gave it my best shot.
I was never here.
Thanks.
For nothing.
- Oh! - Oh Hey, what are you doing here? I had a court appearance next door and popped by to say hello, but now I'm running late, so Oh, well, wait.
Hold up.
How's Eddie? I heard she went to the hospital.
All better.
Nothing's broken.
- That's great.
- Yeah.
- What? - Nothing.
You forget that I'm the one that used to pick you up from school and help you with your homework and cook you dinner, so I know all your little looks, Jameson Reagan.
I'm sure it's nothing.
Okay.
Well, whatever it is, it's tripping your Reagan gut.
I can tell that.
That Reagan gut A blessing and a curse.
Tell me about it.
This one here, he is up to something.
I don't know what it is.
I can't put my finger on it.
But Oh, I got to go.
- Good to see you.
- Oh.
Okay.
Surprise.
I brought Wolfgangs.
Jamie, I'm-I'm on my way out.
I wish you would have told me.
Oh, well, that's the thing about surprises They require the element of surprise.
I'm sorry.
Rain check? Sure, yeah.
Where you headed? Charlotte is having boy troubles again, so I'm meeting her - for a drink.
- In those? What? Sure you don't want to wear sneakers, in case you get in another foot chase? Ha-ha.
You know, the thing about jokes is, they require the element of funny.
Have a good night.
I love you.
Oh, I remember why EMS took me downtown.
They said the ER uptown was jampacked.
Did they? Don't wait up.
Hello, Daniel.
You only refer to me as Daniel when you're upset at me about something.
Look at him.
Okay, before your heart breaks into a million pieces, maybe you should look at the innocent 14-year-old kid that him and his crew put in a hospital bed.
You walked him into a beatdown.
No, I did not.
I gave him a ride home.
Whatever happens after that is not on me.
Maybe he'll learn not to be so loyal to people who aren't loyal to him.
Oh, so now we're doing an eye for an eye.
- No.
- I didn't realize NYPD had updated their Patrol Guide with pages from the Old Testament.
I gave him a ride home.
I think you should go home.
Now.
Anthony.
You sound surprised to find me.
In my own office.
I was looking for you.
Did you think I was hiding under those papers? Don't be cute.
You're in trouble with me.
You're snooping through my stuff, and I'm in trouble with you? - I wasn't snooping.
- Yeah, good racket you got.
I was not snooping I was looking for the Debernardo file.
And that would be in the file cabinet with all the other files.
Well, if you were here from time to time, I wouldn't have to go looking for stuff by myself.
I was gone less than an hour.
- Gone where? - Personal time.
Well, you're taking a lot of that this week, aren't you? Every time I come in here, you've gone somewhere doing God knows what.
I was at my doctor having a consultation about my upcoming colonoscopy.
Should I tell him not to bother now that you're doing the procedure? You think you're funny? I thought that one wasn't half bad.
You know what I think? I think you're up to something, and I'm gonna find out exactly what it is.
I mean, honestly, she has no idea how difficult it is for us to even make a case these days.
We got both hands tied behind our backs, and every bad guy in the city knows it.
Then she makes it out like I'm the one who did something wrong Can you believe that? Yeah, Danny, I can.
- W - And you know that that's why you keep asking me to let you off the hook.
But I didn't ask you for anything.
Then why do you keep saying the same thing over and over and waiting for my response? Because she's annoying.
I'm trying to let you know how ridiculous my sister's being.
She's the one being ridiculous? Okay, so what, you're pissed off at me, too, now? What did I do wrong? I think you know.
No, I don't know.
Honestly.
Well, you should.
But you have to.
Okay, maybe not have to, but should do.
Or at least strongly consider doing.
Delivering the statement.
I considered it.
Well, if it was me, I'd just bite the bullet and talk the talk and But it's not me.
No.
It's him.
And no matter what I say or how I say it, it's gonna come out as: "Dear Leader, who am I but a stone in your shoe.
" That's nowhere in here.
Doesn't matter.
And I think he's bluffing.
Can you see his cards? I know his tells.
Can you see his cards? - No.
- No.
And speaking as someone who's 100% behind you in this, not showing up is gonna be taken by everybody as you escalating it.
Is that what you want? No.
Afternoon, everybody.
I'll make this quick.
I have a statement regarding the arrest my detail made on a quality-of-life misdemeanor the other day and, uh, my part in it.
When you've been a police officer as long as I was, you can't help but react when you come upon a crime in progress.
However that instinct has to be tempered by Actually, my statement's in the form of a question.
Who wants to live in a city where the police commissioner comes upon a crime, in progress, and just keeps driving? What's the message there? Can I help you? Henry, it's me.
Anthony.
Abetamarco.
I used to work for you, remember? Doesn't ring a bell.
A little senior citizen humor.
Ah, you got me pretty good there, I'll tell you.
Then you're losing a step, Detective.
Look, I don't want to take up too much of your time.
Mets game doesn't start for three hours.
We're good.
Okay, full disclosure.
I've already approached Danny and Jamie with this.
They both sent me packing.
So this is about Erin? You want to approach her about something, but you don't know how? - Yeah.
- Far as I can tell, nobody knows her these days better than you.
Fair point.
But this is bigger than just her and me.
How big? Aha.
I'll make the call.
But not to Erin? No.
To the one you came to me for.
You were right.
I'm sorry, can you say that again so I can get it - on video? - Okay, enough.
I admit it, I was Okay, Fonzi, spit it out.
I wasn't right.
You were right.
About what? You were right to be pissed off that I went out as a decoy without backup.
We're all struggling with the new way of the world.
We can't do things the way we used to.
I mean, it's frustrating, I know, but it doesn't mean you go it alone.
I know.
And I know we've been over this before.
It's just very difficult to sit on my hands when there's a 14-year-old in the hospital, and we can't nail the sons of bitches who did it because they got everybody running scared.
Yeah, I'm with you on that one.
But it doesn't mean you go crashing through every rule and procedure like the old days.
You've still got to do it by the book.
Sometimes the book doesn't get the job done, and that really sucks.
It's like jujitsu Instead of working against the book, we make the book work for us.
Well, how do we do that? Yeah, I spoke to a friend of mine in the gang unit, and I told him about the case.
And he showed me some of the photos of the gang we're after.
Hmm.
No way.
Yeah, that's Ricky, all right.
Is Ricky part of your gang? Come on, is he or isn't he? You forgetting something, Detective? I'm sorry for what happened to you.
I shouldn't have dropped you off into a situation like that.
Sorry.
We're good.
That's the game.
Well Now that we're all friends, can you tell us if Ricky's part of your crew? Think I want my other nose broken? We already know Ricky runs with you.
The real question is, why would Ricky let his own crew take out his brother? That ain't how it went down.
Well, how did it go down? Seeing as I can't ever show my face again in the hood and we've gathered here all friendly like shouldn't we start talking about a deal, Madam Assistant District Attorney? I'll be quick.
Couple hours.
SoulCycle takes two hours? I got to get there, change, and then come back.
All right, have fun.
Don't forget your cycling shoes.
Right.
Okay.
I'm outie.
What? Work out tomorrow.
Stay.
Watch a movie with me.
Just pick something good.
We'll watch when I get home.
Boss, these are crazy times.
We all feel that.
Which is why, now more than ever, we need to hold steady.
Need you to hold steady.
Never steadier.
Do you really want to risk losing the war just to win a bar fight? - That's not what I'm doing.
- This plays a lot like two rams who've locked horns and are having a hard time unlocking.
Yeah, I've seen those videos.
One of them has to bow down and twist his neck.
Not gonna be me.
You have an answer for everything.
I give up.
I really do.
Garrett, it isn't pride.
It isn't ego.
If our cops second-guessed every move the way they're asking me to, we'd be attending a funeral every week.
Yes, but you're not a cop; You're their leader.
All the more reason.
To deescalate the situation.
- To lead by that example.
- That woman was genuinely afraid.
She had Maryland plates She was probably just visiting or passing through And she had no idea what that guy might be capable of.
- Look, I get that - So we deescalated.
We stepped in.
We made the arrest.
End of story.
Boss, we just don't want you to get fired.
We're with you 100%, like Garrett says.
But we'd rather be with you up here than, say, meeting for lunch every couple of months, telling war stories.
So, how do you budget your integrity? How do you say "Okay, just one more helping of humble pie, and then that's it"? Nah.
You got a lot of coin in that bank.
Hand to God, there is no one who thinks you've shed an ounce of integrity over the course of this very difficult year.
What they said, times ten.
Thank you.
The moment I think that, the bugler can start playing taps.
Good to see you're out of the hospital okay.
Thank you.
I'm feeling much better.
- That's great.
- Yeah.
You, uh, able to move about at all, or are you kind of just stuck there on the sofa? No, I can get around pretty good.
Doctor said he's about 90%.
That's amazing.
Good for you.
Yeah.
You able to stand up, too? - Yeah, no problem.
- Hey.
Show them how good you're doing.
Well Look, Ma, no hands.
Miracles of modern medicine.
We wouldn't be here if you guys didn't show up the way you did.
Eh.
- How about the rest of your limbs? - I'm all good.
Wow.
Look at that He's got all the rotation back.
Mm-hmm, yeah.
But can you do it in reverse, - is the real question.
- Oh, yeah, easy peasy.
- Yo, yo, yo, what the? - Wait, what are you doing? We're arresting both of you, that's what we're doing.
- For what? - For falsely reporting an incident.
- It's a crime.
- I didn't falsely report anything.
Yes, you did.
You weren't robbed, Matthew.
You were joining that stupid gang.
That beatdown was your initiation.
Orchestrated by your own brother.
So you can consider this your initiation to life if you stay in the gang.
Let's go.
Okay, stop right there! Wha? Jamie.
Hey, what are you doing? What are you doing? You following me? - No.
- Yes, you are.
Yeah, maybe I am.
Why? Because you've been acting really strange lately, and I can't figure out what you're up to.
Why don't you just ask me, instead of following me around like a creepy stalker? Because I have asked you, and multiple times.
But every time I do, you get you get defensive.
I do not get defensive! You slam your computer shut when I come in, you give me one-word answers, and, Eddie, - you lied to me.
- Lied? Yeah, when I came in the hospital, I talked to the EMTs.
They told me that they brought you there because it was the closest hospital.
You told me you were uptown! - Okay, right, I did that.
- Well, why? 'Cause I don't want you to know what I'm doing.
What are you doing? Nothing! Then who the hell is Barry? Okay, future leaders of America, open your books to page 88.
Roll call.
Now, you've all been on the receiving end of this.
Now Hey, Barry.
Sorry I'm late.
Now it's time to learn That's Barry? Mm-hmm.
You're studying for the sergeant's exam.
I was afraid to tell you.
I didn't know if you would like it.
Are you mad? I think it's a great idea, you trying to make sergeant.
I have absolutely no problem that you're here.
But if I'm being honest, I don't like how we got here.
Must have been hell to be your partner on the job.
Nah.
You could ask them.
Guys who like the spotlight don't mind putting themselves on the spot.
- I don't like the spotlight.
- They get antsy if they've been out of the spotlight.
So they start something.
And everyone around them is pinned in that spotlight.
Aw, don't be so hard on yourself.
You knew damn well what you were doing.
Hey, I'm a cop at heart.
I did what a cop does.
A cop who subconsciously needs the spotlight.
That's all you got? Barstool Freud? No.
That's not all I got.
I want to respect your many years of service to this city and the affection and loyalty you command from our police.
So I'll accept your resignation instead of firing you.
You can go out under your own steam.
Happy to coordinate through Garrett.
You guys take the wheel.
I appreciate that.
But I want to respect the majority of citizens who elected you and your positive accomplishments as mayor, so I will respectfully decline your offer.
You want me to fire you? No.
And you don't want to fire me.
And you don't want me to resign.
I just said I did.
No.
Mr.
Mayor, think through the next step.
What next step? My replacement.
Who are you gonna get to step in for the PC you fired for arresting a guy who was threatening a woman on our streets.
It's a pretty long list.
Yeah, and the top 20 men and women will sing your praises and then say they're busy that night.
You sure think a lot of yourself.
It's not about me or deference to me.
It's about their own asses.
It's about not being set up to fail.
