with fish sauce."

Pregnant women.

'2710 car, go to East Ludlow

'for a domestic disturbance.'

See, now if we answer

Okay, got it.

Get outta here.
You split, man.

No, I ain't lettin' you

I told you to get your ass home
by midnight, didn't I?

Now, hey, wait
until the kid's born.

That's when you'll really
kiss your life goodbye.

- Yeah.
- I hear you, man.

Thanks, Joe.

'They told me
you got the old murders.'

What?

He said, um..

'...you the one that's got
to listen to this.'

What is it?

I, uh, found it
in a garbage dump

over by the Raymond Jennings
Projects.

You got a name?

Neesey.

Neesey, huh?

That your real name?

Deniece, okay?

Deniece Funderbunk.

I already told him.

So look, um,
I get anything for this?

Just a sincere thanks
for your civic-mindedness.

My civic what?

Thanks, Miss Funderbunk.

I gotta jet.

A garbage dump?

You don't mind a little dirt,
do you, Rush?

I hang around you, don't I?

(man on tape)
'Runner! Runner! Runner!'

[gunshots]

[train chugging]

[mumbling]

Standard cassette player
and recorder.

Way old school.
Early 70s.

I transferred the audio
from analog to digital.

The stuff after the gunshots,
the man's muttering

'I'm still workin' on that.'

But, check this out.

- 'Shan..'
- What's that?

I'm gonna EQ it by rollin' off
some of the top and bottom.

Filter out the background noise.

[train chugging]

(woman on tape)
'Shanning..'

(female #2)
'Tweak it and clean it.
Correct the pitch. Bam.'

(woman on tape)
'Shanning..'

Sounds like some sort
of public announcement system.

Yeah.
And near a railroad station.

(woman on tape)
'Shanning.'

Sh-Shanning Station.

The old train tracks
in North Philly.

They closed that station
some time in the...early 80s.

Uh, a lover's lane.

Oh, and you know this
from experience?

Not a soul around.

Just you and the stars.

(man on tape)
'Runner! Runner! Runner!'

[gunshots]

Lonely place to die.

[train chugging]

[theme music]

[instrumental music]

Small caliber weapon,
fired three times

in the vicinity
of Shanning Station.

Before it closed in '81.
That narrows it down.

Where the hell is it?

(Jeffries)
'Did you say Shanning Station?'

Yeah.

You're not gonna find
that box job down here.

'This one was one of our own.'

Never left homicide.

Thirty years.

Three shots to the heart.

One year on the force.

- Washington?
- Mm-hmm.

He just graduated
from the academy.

Worked in the 27th district.

Raised in a North Carolina
orphanage.

A stint in the military before
entering the police academy.

And Washington was responding
to a domestic call.

Never made it there,
a few hours later

they found his body
near the Shanning tracks.

Blood spatter matching
Washington's blood type

was found in a stolen vehicle

left on a turnpike
two days later.

It was mostly a dead end,
and we lifted

a fingerprint off
the car windshield. No hits.

Maybe we run the print again.

I'd like to work with you
on this one, Lilly.

I knew Joe Washington.

You knew his partner?

Of him. Butch Rinaldi.

(Rush)
Why wasn't he with Washington
that night?

(Rinaldi)
'I let him go out alone.'

Shouldn't have done that.

He must have pulled over
a motorist

that ran a traffic light
or something.

Joe got three bullets
for his trouble.

I was standin' right here

when I first seen Diane
that night.

'Diane lost the baby
a few weeks later.'

You last saw Washington
at 12:00 midnight.

That's when our shift ended.

On the tape,
there's a train horn

seconds after the gunshots.

We checked train schedules
at the museum.

Only one arrival that night.
At 1:00 a.m.

So we can place time of death

about an hour
after you saw Washington.

But, uh, Shanning's only, uh,
five minutes from the precinct.

Maybe he wasn't headed
to the domestic.

He said he was,
clear as day.

According to the logs,
dispatch sent another call

ten minutes after the domestic.

(Jeffries)
'Drug activity at the
Raymond Jennings Project'

where the tape recorder
was found.

If Washington responded to that
call, the timeline adds up.

Raymond Jennings
wasn't even in our district.

Why would Joe go there
and not tell no one?

That's what we gotta find out.

[train chugging]

I did live in the Raymond
Jennings Project, young lady.

And I called the police
that night.

My tax pays your salary,
you know.

Thirty years is a long time
to remember

a call you made, Miss Gloria.

I remember real good, sir.
You want to know why?

'Cause those damn police
actually came for once.

What does that mean?

Black folks
from the project callin'

on Friday night,
police don't come.

But that night,
that black cop showed up.

And he gets to fightin'
with the drug dealer.

- What drug dealer?
- Never saw him before.

But after I called the police,
I went out to see what happened.

Not expectin' a damn thing.

(Washington)
You don't own this.

Oh, I own this.
I own you.

Joe boy.

You ain't better than me.
You just pretend you is.

The dealer called him Joe?

Joe this, Joe that.

That black cop must have come
around the projects regular.

'Cause he knew enough
not to park at the curb.

Those drug dealers will
see him a-coming a mile away.

What did the drug dealer
look like?

Skinny, young, black.

Struttin' around like
some sorta crazy rooster.

My eyes been bad since forever.
Can't tell you more.

But I did hear those druggies
callin' him The Runner.

- What?
- The Runner.

'What kinda name is that?'

(Rush)
'Thank you, Miss Munez.'

Washington called the killer
that on the tape.

The Runner.

'Cause he knew him.

They both knew each other.

Real well.

(Jeffries)
I did patrol of the Raymond
Jennings Projects in the 70s.

Never heard the name,
The Runner.

Guy ain't in the system
anywhere.

No arrests, nothin'.

So how did this Runner
and Washington get so cozy then?

And how did Washington know
those projects enough

to know where to park when he
didn't even work that district?

Maybe he had it in
for drug dealers.

Washington's patrol log.

Radioed in calls on dealers
in his district constantly.

Got into two altercations.

There's a lot of hate here.

Love hate.

No arrests on his record.

Smoke and mirrors?

Hmm, acts tough
for appearances' sake

but he's really on the take?

Bank records don't show
cash coming in

but there was cash going out
every few weeks.

These didn't cover
his usual living expenses.

He wrote clearly marked checks
for those, and..

...these sums are big enough
to stand out.

So what are we thinkin'?
He buying drugs?

No, addicts clean out bank
within a couple months.

This doesn't follow
that pattern.

So what was he doin'?

Maybe his widow knows.

(Diane)
'The Runner?'

No, I never heard of him.

(Rush)
How long were you married,
Diane?

Ten months, two weeks.

Was Joe a big spender?

Um, first year
of marriage and all.

No, we just got the house.

Why?

Um, these checks he wrote
for cash every few weeks

um, do you know
what they were for?

He got me flowers every Friday.

'And movies.'

We went to movies all the time.

But I never thought
it would amount to that much.

[sighs]
I thought things would be
different by now.

That I'd be different.

Time makes things worse,
not better.

Maybe time also finds the truth.

Can you tell me what you
remember from that day, Diane?

We were thinking about
what to name our baby.

Our little girl.

Joe left for work
20 minutes later..

...and I never saw him again.

I'm sorry.

Sometimes I think..

...my God,
she'd be a woman by now.

My little girl.

'Anyway..'

Um..

...if you think
of anything else.

Detective Rush?

Could you tell from the tape..

...whether Joe was in pain
when he died?

No.

He wasn't.

(Rush)
'I don't know if Diane
was telling the truth'

about the money.

'Wonder why she was never
asked about it.'

Maybe Butch has an idea.

Tonight's first Thursday
at the Tavern, right?

Bet he'll be there.

You're not going
to first Thursday.

Why not?

The old timers
don't take too kindly

to women crashing
their night with the boys.

Too bad.
It's a new world.

Look, those dinosaurs
are bad enough sober, Lilly.

You sayin'
you won't go with me?

I'm saying go see Butch
in the morning.

Forget the Tavern.

[rock music]

[whistling]

- Ow!
- Hey.

[indistinct chatter]

Wife know
you're on a date tonight?

Hey, Butch.
You know Detective Rush.

How you doing, Butch?

This one's for Joe Washington.

And all the guys
who died on the line.

- Yeah, Joe.
- Joe.

We gotta talk.

Yeah, Diane called.

Told me about the crap you came
asking. About Joe's money.

There was money
going out of his account.

You know what it was for?

This ain't no place
to bring a lady, bro.

Any ideas about the money,
Butch?

No.

Turns out Washington
knew Runner real well.

I hope no one's
trying to associate

my fallen partner
with, uh, some drug dealer.

- How do you know Runner, Butch?
- She thinks she can come in--

- Just answer the question.
- Smearing a good cop's name.

Hey.

I'm the one
asking the questions.

So, what's your question,
detective?

Was Washington paying
someone off?

You know who we got here, boys?

The only female in homicide

workin' cold cases.
Know why?

Maybe you ought
to sit down, Butch.

'Cause it's in the basement

where the little lady
can dust down the files.

[laughter]

[music continues]

So how did it go
at the Tavern?

Ass handed to me.

Does that surprise you?

I think Sarreti,
the assigned on the case

suspected the drug angle too.

In an interview, Sarreti did
with Deante Rollins

heroin dealer, his territory
was Raymond Jennings

in the early 70s.

Like Sarreti was wonderin'
about the cash himself.

Mmm, but we can't ask him
'cause he keeled over

from a heart attack last year.

[sighs]
And back then,
Deante wasn't sharing.

What about now?

Maybe he's learned
to play with others.

[cell door buzzer]

Never heard of no Runner.

You sure about that?

Like I say, never heard of him.

(Jeffries)
'And your word is bond, Deante.'

My name is Brother Jamal.

Sure it is.
Asalaam a fakim, my brother.

Like you know what that means.

What does it mean, Jamal?

Peace be with you.

Have you found it yet?

- Peace?
- It's a journey.

There is no it.

There is no end.

A tough road, redemption.

Yes, especially
when you're dealin' smack

to women and children.

I never sold to children.
Ever.

Back in the day,
we was businessmen.

Organized chains of command.

None of this teenage
gangsta bull today.

- You were disciplined.
- That's right.

Working those basketball courts.

- 24/7, 365.
- Never missed a day.

So you were there that night
Washington got killed.

And you must have
seen the fight.

Yeah, I seen it.

You don't own this, man.

Oh, I own this.
I own you.

I own everything
you is, Joe boy.

And the cop runs up
into the projects.

What was he doing?

Few minutes later,
he comes running back down.

Sam!

♪ I'm talkin'

Sammy!

'Sammy! Sam!'

Sammy!

Where did Sammy go to?

What about Runner?
You seen him?

Where did Runner go, huh?

Took off in some car, man.

Towards the tracks, man.

♪ I wanna get down ♪♪

Who's Sammy?

Reason Runner
and his homie split

'cause of something
that happened to her.

Who was his homie?

All's I know
is they was tight.

'Had the same tattoo
on their knuckles.'

(Ray)
'Here we go. Joseph Washington's
autopsy photo.'

'From the original negative,
I printed onto'

technical pan film
and then transferred

onto high contrast slides.

From what you asked,
I figured

density slicing
might do the trick.

What's that?

It's when you take
each scale of gray

and you print it
as pure black and white.

Is that the best
you can do, Ray?

Matter of fact, I did better.

And better.

'And better.'

(Rush)
'So that's how Washington
knew The Runner.'

Washington hung with
a small-time heroin dealer

called The Runner
in the early 70s.

Oh, we checked juvie records
in the court history database.

'Used the tattoo
as an identifying mark.'

Meet the real Joe Washington.

Seventeen years old,
arrested for selling smack.

Gave the arresting officer
a false name.

That's why police
background check missed it.

In a North Carolina orphanage?

Fairy tale.

He grew up in Raymond Jennings.

Straightens out.
Starts flying right.

- Joins the military.
- 'Then the police academy.'

Gets married,
and...we know the rest.

So Washington buried
who he was from everyone.

Even his wife?

I never knew those things
about him.

He never told you
where he really came from?

There were other things he was
hiding from you, weren't there?

Someone robbed you, Diane..

...of your husband,
of your child.

'Don't you think he should pay?'

Everybody wanted to remember
him as this golden boy.

Great cop.

Great husband.

I didn't wanna rain
on their parade.

By doing what?

I knew he was..

He was involved
with somebody else.

Married less than a year
and already cheatin'.

What a joke.

One afternoon, he went out
to the shooting range

and I needed something
from the store.

So I called him.

He wasn't there.

He never showed up.

'When he came home
that night'

I said, "Hey, baby,
how was target practice?"

And he said,
"Fine.

'It was fine."'

I'm sorry.

'He'd go out two,
maybe three times a month.'

One day, I followed him..

There was nothing I could do
to bring him back.

And Sammy? Where is she?

I haven't seen her

Joe's best friend.

Mason Tucker.

'They went to the Catholic
school together, ran track.'

'So that's why the nickname.'

[instrumental music]

Long way from Raymond Jennings,
aren't you, Mason?

Can I help you?

Detectives Rush and Jeffries.
Homicide.

'We just had a few questions.'

About Joe Washington?

(Jeffries)
Oh, your homie
from high school?

Your little drug-runnin' buddy?

I knew Joe.
What's your point?

The night he was murdered,
we got witnesses

in the projects saying
you two had a fight.

I don't remember no fight.

(Jeffries)
'Of course not.'

Remember what you were
fighting about?

I'll say it again,
I don't remember.

How about Sammy?

'Do you remember her?'

Your point being?

Oh, the girl had a lot of
problems, and from what I hear

you had something
to do with it.

Whatever problems
Sammy had

were Joe's doing,
not mine.

That's not what I hear.

I hear it was all
on you, Mason.

Then I suggest you check
the hospital records yourself.

He was the one who
brought her in, not me.

Now, if you don't
have anything else

'I'd like to enjoy
my afternoon.'

Oh, uh, one last question.

How does one go from
selling smack to selling Jags?

Children do dumb things.

I'm sure you did too,
Detective Rush.

That isn't who I am now.

(Rush)
'Sammy was like a little sister
to Washington.'

He felt responsible for her

so he flips when she starts
muling drugs for Mason Tucker.

The night of the murder,
Washington hears

a radio call
about drug activity

at the Raymond Jennings
Projects.

And from the description,
he knows it's Mason?

No, he goes to the projects,
fights with Mason

gets Sammy's grandma
to okay his plan

to get her out of there,
but when he comes back down..

(Jeffries)
'Sammy's gone.'

Washington hears
Mason took off

for the railroad tracks.

He follows.

And that's where
he ends up dead.

And Mason drops off
the face of the earth.

Only to re-emerge
as a law-abiding

yacht-owning citizen
years later.

Deante talked about
an incident that went down

between Mason,
Sammy and Washington

years before the murder.

Do we know what it was?

Only that it put her
in the hospital.

Mm-hmm. Please,
don't let it be that.

We gotta look at it.

The nearest emergency room
is St. Joseph's.

Well, the best person to ask
is Sammy herself.

Check narcotic intelligence.

(Vera)
'Just got the news.'

We got a hit on the fingerprint
inside the stolen car.

The killer's car?

The print in the car
matches Samantha Robbins.

[sighs]
Sammy was in the car
when Washington got killed.

[instrumental music]

[breathing heavily]

Thanks for the tip
about the hospital.

So Sammy OD'd on heroin
in 1971.

Now, how's a little girl
get her hands on that?

- I wouldn't know.
- Huh!

No? 'Cause Washington told
the doctors you gave it to her.

That's a lie.

You're right.

You know what, Mason?

I'm like you.
I lie a lot.

Let's both try something new.

Seems to be the way

Mason, I know Sammy was in the

Who told you that?
A middle-aged heroin whore?

Joe was running from
his guilt about Sammy.

What about you?

What are you running from?

You wanna talk to me..

...bitch.

Cop on Kensington
said Sammy's in here.

Coming on the end

Ain't got nothing to give.

- Sorry.
- 'Oh!'

It's all about you, isn't it?
Always getting in trouble.

'Always waiting for someone
to bail you out.'

That's why Joe came
to the projects that night.

That's why he died,
helping you.

Helping me?

Helping me?

He lied to me.

He promised and then,
he just went and died.

What did Joe promise you..

He promised to take me home.

- Well, I own this.

I own you.

I own everything you is,
Joe boy.

[grunting]

(Joe)
'You ain't better than me.'

You just pretend you is.

'Sammy!'

Sammy!

Look, I told you
not to mess with Mason.

I told you
not to touch that crap.

I didn't do nothing.
You can't tell me what to do.

- You ain't my daddy.
- 'Cause you ain't got no daddy.

You ain't got nobody.
I'm all you got.

You, shut up.
You, shut up.

'He went up

That's all I know.

Hmm. Really?

Really.

(Jeffries)
'And how did your tape recorder
get in Mason's car?'

And your fingerprint?

[chuckles]
You think this is over?

Just 'cause you dropped
a tape recorder on my desk?

Did you ever hear of the,
uh, eighth step, Sammy?

Making amends.

It's not over.

Not till you tell me
what happened

on those tracks that night.

Big old, bad Mason
don't own you.

You own you.

'You think you can

..after all I done for you?

I gotta pee, Runner.

Well, he thinks he can take
what's mine and walk away?

I own you.

He don't own you. I do.

Come here. Come here.

- Aah!
- Come here.

[screaming]

'Come..'

[siren blaring]

Runner!

Runner! Runner!

When I woke up, we weren't
at the tracks any more.

We was headed back
to the projects.

Mason was driving,
and talkin', and..

...he just kept
talkin' to hisself.

What was he saying?

[laughs]
The Lord's prayer.

He left me near the garbage dump
outside my building.

Like a piece of trash.

You never answered
my question.

About why you're running.

And why it never ends.

The running.

I'm not talking to you.

I'm talking to you.

'Fact is, I'm here
to arrest you.'

So sit down.

'We found Sammy.'

You were wrong.

You don't own her.

I know you.

You don't know
a thing about me.

I know what
it's like to run..

'...from who you are.'

I don't know what
you're talking about.

'From what you did.'

But you can't, can you?

So you spend your whole life
running.

(Joe on tape)
'Runner! Runner! Runner!'

[gunshots]

[train chugging]

(Mason on tape)
'Our Father'

'who art in heaven.'

What are you doing here?

'Hallowed be thy name.'

- 'You're praying.'
- 'Thy kingdom come.'

'Thy will be done
on earth..'

[recorder shuts off]

You were asking
for forgiveness.

Remember?

He should have never tried
to change things.

He should have never come back.

He should-he should..

He-he..

He was all the love
I had in this world.

Joe was looking
for forgiveness.

I think you are too.

'It's time, isn't it?'

'To forgive yourself...Runner?'

[siren blaring]

Runner!

'Runner!'

'Runner!'

Hi.

I wanted to come here, Diane

to tell you about Sammy.

She wasn't
your husband's mistress.

She was a little girl
at that time Joe grew up with.

That he loved,
and he had a-a debt to her.

So I brought her home to you.
