Previously on.

"Shades of Blue."

- Officers responding.
- To shots fired.

At the Sunrise Café.

I shot an innocent man.

You were on foot pursuit.

- He turned and aimed.
- His gun at you.

Loman!

Ramsey's more dangerous

than you realize.

Than I realize?

Nava's dead.

A shipping container?

- We're all just armed muscle.
- For a cartel.

- That was the secret.
- That got Parker killed.

Deliver Enrique.

This isn't a negotiation.

- I need you to broker a trade.
- With the Feds.

For a wanted cartel member.

I'll make a few calls.

- Like it wasn't hard enough.
- To stay afloat.

- I have followed Woz and Harlee.
- Into a war.

And what do I get?

- I wanna know.
- Where Enrique is.

All you have to do

is name your price.

- There's no immunity.
- From Jordan Ramsey.

- But that doesn't mean.
- That I have to let him win.

I have a witness who can help

bring Jordan Ramsey down.

- Does this witness.
- Have a name?

- Not until he testifies.
- In front of the commission.

On police corruption.

You have a leak, Tom.

- The Deputy Commissioner.
- Of Internal Affairs.

Is Ramsey's mole.

- Attention all units,
- Lieutenant Matt Wozniak.

- Is wanted in connection.
- To a terrorist cell.

First one's for you.

And the next one's for me.

This is not your fault.

None of this is your fault.

Hey.

He's dead.

It's over.

How's our girl?

Clutch.

I gotta say she was clutch.

Didn't hesitate.

Knew exactly what to do.

- I wonder where she.
- Learned that from.

He could have killed us.

I mean, he would

have killed us if...

But he didn't.

He's on a cold tray

in a moldy basement,

and you've got all your

tomorrows lined up.

I don't have anything

lined up past lunch.

Well,

first thing you gotta do

is take this traumatic

experience with Stahl

to no-show

the police commission.

I'm a fugitive, but I haven't

been living under a rock.

Good.

- If you believed the pretense,
- so will Ramsey.

- No.
- Bad.

They swear you in

at these things.

You're gonna be under oath

- and that's not a good state.
- To be in.

For somebody with your secrets.

I'm not the one testifying.

Cole?

- That's why.
- It has to be public.

On the record.

He's gonna flip on his boss?

His boss

is trying to kill him.

Once Cole implicates Ramsey,

Ramsey can't touch him.

And this manhunt for you

will be called off.

So simple.

What can go wrong?

Smart.

- Whole department's looking.
- For that son of a bitch,

And he shows up here.

- Wozniak knows.
- What he's doing.

Not from what I've seen.

Are you ready?

I need you focused.

What you need is a miracle.

It's this - or Ramsey wins.

I'll take roll call.

You meet Loman at the south

entrance stairwell at 105.

He'll walk you through.

- They bought tickets.
- To see you,

- And they're gonna get.
- My scruffy mug.

- Better tell them.
- One hell of a story.

They're waiting to start.

- Who is this witness, Detective,
- and where are they?

- The veil's.
- About to be pulled.

You're full of surprises.

- And this promises.
- To be a good one,

But we pride ourselves

on punctuality.

- The Chairman has.
- A hard out at 200.

- And would like.
- To start promptly.

The witness is getting here.

- I thought you.
- Were the witness.

- I'm here only.
- As supporting testimony.

- That wasn't.
- Our understanding.

- Is the commission.
- Fully assembled?

- And waiting.
- Okay, we'll be right there.

- This is Detective.
- Anthony Cole...

Hey, listen.

We gotta start this thing

or we gotta call it off.

He'll be here any minute.

- I called in every favor.
- That I have.

And I put my job on the line

- to make this hearing happen.
- On your terms.

- And I will deliver.
- What I promised.

- What you promised.
- Is first hand testimony.

Of police corruption

on the highest levels.

Under oath.

- Do you swear.
- To tell the truth,

The whole truth,

and nothing but the truth

under penalty of perjury,

so help you God?

I do.

The witness will state

her name, rank, and precinct

for the record.

Harlee Grace Santos.

Detective first grade.

Brooklyn.

The six four.

How far out?

About 20 minutes away.

Why are we waiting here?

- If the NYPD has Enrique Ortiz.
- In custody,

We should pick him up.

- There's reason to believe.
- That higher level officials.

- Within the department are.
- Committed to seeing

Ortiz escape prosecution.

- Says the cops.
- That are holding him?

- They don't wanna.
- Announce themselves.

They're willing to deliver him

directly to our task force.

Grab a latte.

- You don't even have.
- To leave Manhattan.

- No questions asked,
- is that the deal?

Part of it.

Baker.

He talks to himself.

Your boss.

To phantoms.

Cries of self pity.

And I don't mean in his sleep.

The man's mind is gone.

- What are you,
- a shrink or a drug lord?

- 'Cause, you know, I always seem.
- To get those two confused.

- What's keeping you loyal,
- bonita?

Fear?

- A wanted man with no home.
- And no friends.

Is not a man to be feared.

Once we deposit you back,

his status will change.

And the friends?

We're a go.

They meet your terms?

Well, less than I'd like,

more than I expected.

- You sure this is.
- The right play, Woz?

We're almost there, Tess.

Home safe.

Safe tomorrow.

Obstruction.

Racketeering.

And murder.

Involving active-duty

police officers?

Correct.

Including yourself?

In a manner of speaking.

Well, that begs the question

and really defines

this whole hearing.

- Detective Santos,
- do you consider yourself.

More of a police officer

or a criminal?

Honestly?

Depends on the day.

Order, please.

Then pick a day, Detective.

Detective?

I'm not here to talk

about myself or my crew.

- I'm here to fulfill.
- A commitment.

A commitment to expose

a wide criminal conspiracy

- involving this.
- Police department.

- How did you let her.
- Walk in there?

She's stalling.

- Cole's the star witness,
- and he's a no-show.

- Cold feet,
- or another set up?

Or Ramsey sniffed this out

- and made sure.
- He didn't make it.

- You got the address.
- To that motel?

- Ms. Santos,
- we put together this hearing.

With haste based on assurances

from Internal Affairs

that we would be given

a time-sensitive account

of corruption

within the department.

And you will.

Just not in the form

of my testimony.

Well, in what form, then?

The witness has been delayed

but will be here momentarily.

- Does this witness.
- Have a name?

Detective, we all rearranged

our schedules to be here.

- Could you please.
- Give us the courtesy.

Of your attention?

- I can't give you his name.
- Until he arrives.

Why?

- Because I believe the witness.
- To be in grave danger.

Give us an address.

I'll send a protective detail.

Sorry I'm late, Chairman.

Understood,

given such short notice.

Detective Santos,

we're all interested

in preserving the integrity

- and the reputation.
- Of the department.

- And thus granted you.
- This public forum.

To voice your concerns.

But, well, I'm afraid

we're all in the dark here.

- You really must.
- Provide some detail.

As to why we're assembled

or offer someone who can.

The more detail I give,

the harder it will be

for the witness to show.

- Whoever this mystery.
- Witness is,

I can guarantee their safety.

It's not too late

to change your mind.

- That assumes you.
- Know my mind.

I can guess.

Your attitude, that body.

You always had attention.

Depended on it.

Got to be so you craved

a little danger.

Drawn to the wrong men because

you secretly like the drama.

Feed off the chaos.

I am learning to let go of

men who don't fit in my life.

I can vanquish

all of those bad judgments.

Make you a wealthy woman.

You can chase all

the chaos you want.

I'd settle for the chaos

to stop chasing me.

Simple.

Just drive me where I tell you,

and then look the other way.

Nothing is simple.

- Everything is complicated.
- And twisted,

And everybody gets screwed

in the end.

What a sad view of the world.

Brace yourself.

- You're about to get a taste.
- Of chaos.

¿Pero qué haces loca?

Take the cuffs with you.

What?

- Get out.
- Go.

Thank you, bonita.

Don't thank me.

- Thank limited choices.
- And desperate times.

- Vamos antes.
- Que lleguen refuerzos.

- La próxima vez llama un taxi,
- Enrique.

Lovely.

Okay.

42-12.

Dispatch 10-13.

Officer in need

of emergency assistance.

Cole, are you in there?

Cole, hello?

- It's okay.
- Police, police.

- No, no,
- the man who had this room,

Did he check out?

Was anyone with him?

Chairman, I apologize

for the confusion

and the secrecy.

But I've discovered

many branches of the NYPD

to be compromised.

- Detective Santos,
- we're not here to discuss.

Police reform but because

you promised to testify.

- And you're here.
- To illuminate that corruption?

I'm hoping you are.

With your supporting evidence.

By my read, you,

and by extension your unit,

- have been the subject.
- Of several.

- Internal Affairs.
- Investigations,

And also have been surrounded

- by a disproportionate amount.
- Of fatalities,

Including as recently as last

night in your own living room.

I assure you

- that this is a story.
- Of systemic police corruption.

That you all want

to hear immediately.

Then by all means, - tell it.

But you need to hear it

in the proper context

from the right witness.

- All right,
- here's what's gonna happen.

I have a meeting at 200.

I'm gonna adjourn the

proceedings until 400.

At which time,

you will produce

this alleged witness

or you'll face a subpoena

compelling you to testify.

Do I make myself clear?

You do.

We're adjourned till 400.

- Tufo said the motel.
- Manager claimed.

- That Cole paid.
- For the room in cash.

Yeah, that was the plan.

- Well, at least he left.
- The motel in one piece.

- Does it matter?
- He's not here, okay?

- So he's either dead.
- Or a coward.

- Either way,
- he's no help to us.

Did he take Cristina's car?

- Is that really your biggest.
- Concern right now?

Detective!

- If he took the car,
- he was planning on coming.

It's not on the lot.

Give me your keys.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Yo.

- So tell me.
- What happened again.

God.

Same question, same answer.

I blacked out on impact.

- And you have no idea.
- How Mr. Ortiz.

Was liberated from your vehicle

- when he should have been.
- Handcuffed and locked.

In the backseat?

- Well, the broken window might.
- Offer a theory.

Explains the egress,

- not the absolute.
- Lack of competence.

Look, we thought the cruiser

would be less conspicuous.

- Apparently the perps.
- Knew our route.

- And they rammed me.
- Off the road.

By the time I woke up,

the...

- The entitled prick.
- Was already gone.

- You don't have the best.
- Record with traffic collisions.

This week, do you, Tess?

Beats the number of dead FBI

agents under your watch, Gail.

Who else knew that you were

transporting him to us?

I lost my detective's shield

for roughing up some dealer

peddling poison in my precinct.

Do you really think that

freeing a cartel member

fits my M.O.?

- They had to have known.
- The route somehow.

It doesn't take a genius

with the subtle footprint

you guys leave behind.

Tess, I really hope

you're telling me the truth.

Wozniak had a lot riding

on this transfer.

You think we're grilling you?

What, no goodbye kiss?

- I almost forgot.
- You were a detective.

You don't tell a girl

where your go-bag is

if you plan to stand her up.

I made the decision that I was

gonna face this thing down.

Hell or high water.

Got in the car.

- Drove to the hearing.
- When you said to be there.

And then...

- The car drove you.
- Here instead?

I guess the generous name for

it would be survival instinct.

Follow your other instinct.

- The instinct that made you say,
- "Yes."

In my line of work,

- you don't leap without.
- Knowing where the ground is.

And in my line of work,

- you don't let your partner.
- Walk through the door.

Without backup.

So don't go.

I already did.

Ramsey's on the commission.

- I told you.
- There's no beating him.

Until someone does.

Until someone

pushes past the fear,

stops doubting,

and takes the leap.

Yeah?

Ask Parker.

Or Bennett.

Or your boyfriend.

Look, Cole, I understand.

I do.

- A year ago, I would have.
- Swept up my daughter.

And been on this ferry myself.

I would have done anything

I could to survive.

So do it.

Go and get her.

I'll wait.

I held them off.

The commission's in recess.

- There's another ferry.
- In an hour.

So go back with me, okay?

Just see this thing through.

Not my kind of odds.

I'm sorry.

One day you're gonna realize

that what you call survival

is not living at all.

- Promise me you're not.
- Going back there.

- Make sure you really.
- Know what you're doing.

Before you do it.

I do.

I'll take the leap alone.

Hey.

Give me a sec.

What color is it?

Um...

Nevermind.

Here it is.

Thank you.

- Did you get what.
- You were promised?

Gail Baker

gave me a warning.

What was that?

Not to cross you.

You didn't crack?

- It's hard to argue.
- With a busted-up face.

And a busted up car.

That's my girl.

- Just don't ask me to drive.
- Into another wall, okay?

Scars add character.

Especially ones

with good stories.

- Yeah,
- if you're around to tell them.

That should help you

keep your house.

Are youWoz, you don't...

That's how family works.

We take care of each other.

So what do you do now?

Now I let it all burn down.

- Harlee, you can't go.
- In there with nothing.

Mom?

Why the weird text?

What's going on?

Loman.

Cristina.

This is something that

I always hoped to avoid...

But over the past year,

it's become...

Something that I need to do.

Mom, I don't...

I don't understand.

I wanna be a good

example for you,

but lately you've been

the good example.

Your goodness in your heart...

God, I feel like I blinked,

and 16 years went by.

Mom, you know,

whatever this is,

you can tell me.

I can handle it.

Look at that.

- Look at the strong young woman.
- Sitting in front of me.

- Can you please just tell me.
- What this is?

This is me facing the music.

Coming clean.

- This is me trying.
- To be a better person.

- Mom,
- you saved my life yesterday.

Look, whatever this is,

Woz can help.

- He'll get you out of.
- Whatever they caught you for.

They didn't catch me, baby.

This is my choice.

It's the only way that

I can make things right.

For everyone.

- This doesn't.
- Make things right.

This is very wrong.

You wanna face the music?

Here it is.

Tell me.

- Tell me the truth.
- So I can forgive you.

I wish that was enough.

I do.

But there is a part of me

that is so broken.

Yet I have to fix it now,

or I'll never get the chance.

Baby...

- I need to know.
- That I am a person.

Who's worthy

of being your mom.

Any clue who this

witness might be?

I have some thoughts.

None that concern me.

I know you're covered.

- I'm asking if I.
- Should be concerned.

That's why I'm here, Isabel.

To assuage your concerns.

- Are you calling.
- To capitulate?

No, I'm giving you

the opportunity

to apologize

to a mutual friend.

- I don't think.
- We have any of those.

- I'm gonna save you the breath.
- To come up with excuses.

For the Enrique debacle.

- You seem to need.
- Direct instructions,

- So let's start.
- With a simple one.

Call off the manhunt

on Mr. Wozniak.

He's a friend who secured

the return of a beloved son.

Because he kidnapped him.

- An elevated terrorist threat.
- Level doesn't help business.

- I'm taking.
- A broader view of things.

I am not interested

in a broader view.

I'm interested in cooperation.

Well done, Lieutenant.

But you and I aren't finished.

I'm counting on it.

He sounded a little tense.

Are you still content to pay

for Ramsey's inefficiencies?

The man wields influence.

And is about to have

a much bigger profile.

I mean, that's a...

That's a liability.

More important,

he has no honor.

He's killed his own men

to protect his self interest.

- How soon before he puts you.
- On that list?

What else do you need,

Mr. Wozniak?

What's the verdict?

Ramsey's on the jury.

Is Cole dead,

or did some sense fall on him?

I'm on my own on this one.

- You're not still there,
- are you?

About to resume.

Harlee, I have a smoking gun.

It cost us quite a bit,

but it's gonna work.

Pull a fire alarm and just

get the hell out of there.

Wait, what smoking gun?

A recording of Ramsey talking

to that cartel rep

about a missing shipment

and Cole's dead partner,

Parker.

Well, send it to me.

We have to be smart

about how we use this.

Woz, I need it now.

Parker was killed

in the Sunrise Café.

You had a bad shoot there,

remember?

Woz, I've got nothing

but my word.

- And now that Ramsey knows.
- That we're on to him,

There won't be another chance.

- We'll negotiate something.
- With Internal Affairs.

Police commission hearings

are like black holes.

- They suck in everyone.
- Around them.

Which is why I can drag

Ramsey down with me.

No, no, you don't

have to do this.

Send the recording, Woz.

Just send the recording.

I won't implicate anyone else.

I'm not letting you

implicate yourself.

Woz, I love you.

But I am going down this road.

I'm ending this now.

You've always had my back.

- If you love me,
- you'll have it one last time.

Harlee, don't go in there.

[Hamster feat. LZ Love's.

Please come to order.

We are now back in session.

Detective Santos,

- I remind you that.
- You are still under oath.

I'm ready to proceed.

Have you located

your missing witness?

I have not.

But I'm now prepared

to testify directly

about corruption at the highest

levels of the NYPD.

And by highest levels,

you mean the anti-crime unit

of the 64th headed

by Lieutenant Wozniak.

No.

I mean the NYPD.

Intelligence Unit

headed by Captain Ramsey.

Well, that's quite

a provocative accusation.

But I cannot allow this hearing

to be used as a forum

to publicly impeach a decorated

officer on this commission

- without some...
- Proof?

Will an audio recording do?

A phone call?

You will recognize

Jordan Ramsey's voice

talking to William Rydel,

the New York arm

of the Riohacha Cartel.

- An illegally-obtained.
- Recording.

Of a classified operation?

You promised secure passage.

A small hiccup at the port.

- It's hard to trust.
- You can handle our operation.

- If you can't handle.
- Your own men.

- They couldn't have moved the.
- Shipment outside the dockyard.

It's still there.

I'll locate it.

And Parker?

- You worry about.
- Your exposure.

I have mine covered.

I guess we can conclude

this commission

as a waste of our time.

Chairman, the witness

is misappropriating

a conversation involving

- a classified.
- Undercover operation.

Did the operation include

murdering.

Detective Jake Parker?

Excuse me.

I must have dozed off.

- Did we listen to.
- A reference to murder?

A reference to you

covering your exposure

in a call hours before

Parker was assassinated.

Hold on, officer.

Wasn't Detective Parker killed

in a mass shooting

at a diner where you were

the first responder?

That's correct.

- And didn't you kill.
- That assailant?

No.

I killed a longshoreman

fleeing the scene.

A longshoreman who was

assisting Detective Parker

and exposing Captain Ramsey's

connection to the cartel.

A second one was murdered

four days later.

Along with my boyfriend,

A.D.A. James Nava...

after confirming

that Parker was working

with Internal Affairs.

- Detective, the weapon found.
- In the Sunrise shooter's.

Possession matches the

ballistics inside the diner.

After Ramsey doctored

the evidence.

Chairman, I believe we just

entered conspiracy-land.

The gun was swapped.

- I didn't realize.
- You were a ballistics expert.

I know enough to tell you

that it's impossible

to shoot six people

including a police officer

when you don't have a gun.

You're own report

on the incident maintains

your suspect did have a gun.

A gun he discharged on you,

forcing you to shoot

and kill him.

- Don't believe.
- Everything you read.

- Are you suggesting.
- You lied to Internal Affairs.

About a bad shoot?

I'm not suggesting.

I'm telling you.

That longshoreman couldn't have

shot anyone at the Sunrise

because he didn't have a gun

when I shot him.

So where did the weapon found

on the suspect come from?

I pulled it from my person,

discharged,

and planted it

before my partner arrived

at the scene.

I stand corrected.

- This incident might very well.
- Involve a murder.

The suspect was fleeing

the scene of a massacre.

- You shot the man.
- In the chest.

He had stopped running

and turned to face you.

I mistook him

for Robert Stahl.

The FBI agent who abducted me

- and tried to kill.
- Me last night.

- So we're back.
- To your psych evaluation.

I am testifying to the simple

and horrific fact

that you ordered the murder

of an NYPD police officer.

One of your own.

And then committed

multiple murders

to cover up that truth.

I went along with it

because you threatened

to expose my own cover up.

- I went along with it.
- Because there is such a thing.

As the Blue Wall.

I went along with it because

when you're a corrupt cop

long enough,

lying becomes instinct.

It is a very slippery slope

- in service of.
- The greater good.

But the truth...

The ugly truth...

I've endangered people's lives

with my choices.

I've made excuses

for breaking the law...

While I've worn the shield.

And not only have I betrayed...

The trust confided in me

by this city...

I betrayed...

- the trust.
- Of the people closest to me.

I betrayed myself.

I lied to everyone around me...

Until I didn't even know

what was true.

But I'm done.

I'm done with cover ups.

And I'm done with lies.

And I'm done being afraid.

Mr. Chairman,

why would I admit to this

if I wasn't telling the truth?

Captain?

Hey.

- Must be nice.
- To breathe fresh air.

Without helicopters circling.

Wozniak one, manhunt zip.

- And Linda let you.
- Back in the house?

Wozniack two.

And you got on

the scoreboard, too.

Ramsey's arrest,

and his assets are frozen.

I heard.

- When I stopped.
- By the precinct,

There was a stack of witness

statements on your desk.

- Witness statements?
- I don't...

I don't have any active cases.

Character witness statements.

Every cop in the precinct

submitted one on your behalf.

Is that supposed to be

some kind of joke?

I think it's an apology.

It always comes back to this.

You and me.

I was thinking

about your shooting.

You had to run through

the scene of a mass murder.

The bodies were still warm.

You had to think that

you were probably

chasing the killer.

But I wasn't.

But it's not gonna matter

to the Grand Jury.

You were in fear for your life,

and you made a decision.

More than one.

I covered it up.

You were still

lost out there in the woods.

You weren't yourself.

It's a good plan.

I have a different one.

You usually do.

I'm gonna take a plea.

Harlee, that's not only time,

they're gonna take your badge.

- Well, it's not penance if it.
- Doesn't cost you something.

Penance is overrated.

This is gonna affect

everybody around you.

Says a guy who insists

on living with a bullet

lodged in his back.

I don't like surrender.

I'm not quitting.

I'm starting over.

I just need to see

who I am when I come out

the other side.

- Cristina's gonna need you.
- Every night.

Well, that's why I'm here.

I came to ask you something.

Take care of Cristina for me.

While I'm away.

You and the crew.

Harlee.

She's gonna need you.

And you're gonna need her, too.

- I'm not gonna be around.
- To mother either of you.

Take care of my baby.

Of course I will.

I promise.

- Another girl who's.
- Gonna need your help,

Even if she doesn't ask for it.

- This is your second chance,
- Woz.

You were my second chance.

You were a gift.

I wasn't always such a gift.

You were.

God, I love you.

- It's always been.
- Your worst quality.

Can't quit me, - can you, man?

Hey, you got a psycho

loose back here.

Hey.

Hey!

Remember what I said

about sudden death

being overrated?

I was wrong.

Say the word, and I won't

stop till we cross the border.

Fugitives look better

in a convertible.

Well, you look better

with a badge than a jumpsuit.

- And you without a bullet.
- In your back.

It'll be great to have young

people in the house again.

We, um...

We never changed anything

since...

- But this is your room now,
- okay?

So...

you should make it your own.

It's perfect the way it is.

It might take you a while

to win miss popularity contest

in there.

Well, out here

we're all cops and criminals.

In there, well,

everyone's innocent, right?

Yeah, everyone and no one.

- You sure you don't want me.
- To walk you in?

Better get used

to rolling on my own.

Anybody bothers you,

I'm processing Tess

to come in as backup.

Don't go changing too much

while I'm not looking.

Why start now?

Home safe.

Safe tomorrow.

"Cristina,"

I know it's difficult

"for you to understand"

why I had to do this.

"Why I needed"

to face my actions

"and atone for my mistakes."

"The irony is that the"

hardest part of my decision

"will be to be away from you."

"The reason"

I needed to change.

- "I see the woman."
- You're becoming.

And I want you to continue

"making your own choices."

"Picking your own path."

- "I walked a tight rope."
- Between what was right.

"And what I thought"

I had to do.

- Even when I knew.
- "It was wrong."

"I was in freefall."

"What finally woke me up,"

"what made me choose"

a new direction

"was seeing I was dragging"

others down with me.

"People I loved

"and wanted to protect.

- "People who deserve."
- To be in charge.

"Of their own fate and future."

Yay, Tess!

Welcome back!

"Because only when we're"

free to choose for ourselves

"can we take responsibility..."

- "And hold each other.
- Accountable."

"Only then can we build"

a better future.

"A home for ourselves"

where we can be whole

"and feel safe and loved."

Be surrounded

"by those who love us."

"To keep the monsters at bay."

"Both the real ones"

and the ones

"that haunt our minds."

- "Because."
- The ones you can't see.

"Are the hardest to escape."

"They go everywhere with us.

They are a part of us."

"Until we say no more."

"Until we stop"

and face our fears.

"Until we defeat our monsters."

"We tell them we're in charge.

We tell them we have changed."

"'Then and only then..."

"Are we finally free."
