All language subtitles for Hunter s05e13 City Under Siege 3

Denied on Hunter.

Division commander taking on a deputy
chief. You're going to regret you ever

heard my name.

Debbie, you're $500 richer.

Earn it.

My whole life has kind of turned to
crap.

Lovemaking. Recorded secretly.

My partner was a student.

Why don't you and I have a little chat?

Meet me at the observatory.

Freeze right there!

In the last two weeks of Hunter... Los
Angeles is a city under siege.

Hunter, I've missed you.

And I'm back in town with a bang.

I mean, if you want to get a handle on
why this neighborhood shivers in its

sleep, a young megalomaniac punk -like
young blood is a good place to start.

As Angelenos lock their doors and
wonder, where are the police?

The day after tomorrow, whoever owns
that coat, they'll be dead.

Freeze!

His day of execution.

Hey! Hold it!

No! You killed Alan.

I keep thinking if I'd broken cover,
he'd still be alive.

65 % of our fellow citizens think that
small act of self -defense and should be

relieved. And in the interest of
justice, the people move to dismiss all

against the defendant.

You have my calendar, Hunter.

Yeah, I've got it right here in front of
me, Iris.

Your time's coming.

You're next, Connor.

Oh, Roger.

You know, for an old guy, it still
sounds like you can get it on. Too bad

with one of your students.

It's Debbie Small. I'm in a lot of
trouble.

Debbie, you all right?

Sergeant Diddy McCall.

It's been nice having you at Pierce
High.

I'm going to take Charlie out of the
driver's seat and put you in it. I

appreciate the opportunity, but stick
him. Hey, let's kill that cop tonight.

You don't have to go out looking for
them. They'll be delivered to you at the

hour appointed by the universe.

And now,

City Under Seeds, part three.

Is it Jack Small?

Yeah.

What next?

Any suspects?

No.

Some neighbors heard a scream around 6
this morning. They didn't think anything

about it. They figured it was some kids
playing.

So they looked out and they saw him
floating face down in the pool.

Revenge for the Marshall killing, you
think?

I don't know.

I asked DHQ to go over and interview his
parents.

Good, good.

What about Small's daughter, Debbie?
Isn't that her name? She know anything

about this? She's unaccounted for.

Mad Brendan checked the apartment.

Nothing. Chief, we understand the victim
has been identified as Jack Small. Now,

shouldn't you have anticipated an
attempt on his life?

Well, we're fully aware of the
controversy surrounding Jack Small.

I assume, or presume, that he didn't ask
for protection. However, if there's any

dereliction of duty, you have my word
that...

Whoever is responsible will face the
consequences. Thank you very much.

me. One more question.

Oh, great.

I mean, that's what happens to the city.

Well, what do you got? Don't cover it.

Dab to death.

No wits, no suspects.

Huh?

Tell me something.

What did you do before you became a cop?

I was a secretary.

Good.

You'll have something to fall back on.

Excuse me.

Another stellar performance by your
people.

Why wasn't Small provided with
protection?

He had plenty of protection while he was
still in the county jail.

Are you suggesting my complicity in his
release?

I know Ed Clayton. He's a damn good
prosecutor.

He wouldn't roll over on a case like
this unless he'd been persuaded.

Devane, you've been skating on thin ice
for some time now.

And the task force has fallen on its
collective ass.

And because of your incompetent
leadership, the department is under

criticism. Our reputation is number one.

I'll say it's suffered.

I think it's time that we relieve you of
your responsibilities, bring in some

new blood.

I know all about your offer to Hunter.
It's about what I'd expect from you.

You know, Curtis, you've made a career
out of bobbing and weaving, making sure

the stink doesn't stick to you.

Well, I promise you, I am going to find
out who is responsible for putting Jack

Small back on the street.

And when I do, I'll bet you a barrel of
powers, Irish, you don't survive the

scrutiny.

Now you say that you saw a man running
away?

Yes, he had something shiny in his hand.
I think it was a knife.

Can you describe him for me? I already
have for Sergeant Hunter.

For Sergeant Hunter? What do you mean?

You should have his picture.

Your artist drew him last week.

Is this the man that you saw?

Sam, do you think he might come back
here?

No, Mrs. Fleck. I wouldn't worry about
that. You'll be all right.

Greg, take Mrs. Fleck inside. Tell the
watch commander I want her checked

hourly. You'll be fine.

Debbie.

Debbie.

I don't understand.

I don't know.

Last month on my 18th birthday, he gave
me this teddy bear and I thought it was

really stupid.

He just wanted me to be a little girl.

Why don't we go inside where we can
talk?

Hi. Hi.

Debbie, is there a...

Anything that I can do for you?

Look, I just think I need to be alone.

Dad, I'll be all right, really.

I think we need to talk.

What about?

A lot.

I have some free time this afternoon.

Good. Come by my office.

Downtown store owner thinks he made
Billy off the bulletin we distributed.

First and Adams.

Thanks, Rick.

Yeah, hell, I saw them on the news just
the other night.

I think they're staying right over
there.

Hotel Baltimore?

Yeah.

You sure that's them?

I'm sure.

I've seen him more than I've seen her,
but that's the guy that bought the

Thank you.

Yeah, no problem.

This is 1 William 156.

I am at 1st and Adams Street.

rear of the Hotel Baltimore.

Hospital 187 suspect, code 2.

Roger, 108166.

In other news, the victim in last
night's valley slaying has been

Jack Small, the so -called North
Hollywood vigilante. He was arrested

this week as a suspect in the tragic
death of Pierce High School student Alan

Marshall. Many Valley residents were
outraged when manslaughter charges...

Outraged? You bet.

Police have refused to speculate as to a
motive in Small's murder and reported

they have no active suspects.

It's because you're all a bunch of
dummies.

I appreciate your willingness to speak
with me. You understand, of course, that

I will be recording everything we say.

You have to?

I understand.

And since I read you your rights, you
are under no obligation to speak with

Yes, I know.

Please have a seat.

Okay, what do you need to speak with me
about?

Well, to begin with, you were right.

Youngblood did force me to tell him that
you were a cop.

Forced you how?

His stock and trade.

What's that?

Lovemaking.

Recorded secretly at my bedroom.

Alan Marshall was probably in my
apartment on Friday night in order to

the tape recorder.

Well, I can understand how that would be
embarrassing for you, but... My partner

was a student.

What was the student's name?

Debbie Small.

Look, it's not at all what you think it
is.

As a matter of fact, It started very
innocently.

Her father never gave her so much as a
second of his time. All she needed was

someone to talk to, someone to turn to.

I mean, we went for walks, we went
jogging, we snuck out to the movies a

times. All I really wanted to do was to
take her into my arms and to protect

her.

And then one thing led to another.

She is 18. She's a woman, Sergeant
McCall.

She just turned 18 last month, Landry.
How long have you been involved with

A year.

How did Youngblood find out about it?

She must have told him.

Maybe when she was stoned. Maybe in
order to prove to him that she was worth

something. I don't know.

Maybe to get something from him.

What happens to me now?

Well, you could be charged with
statutory rape. That depends upon the

The question is, what happens to Debbie
now?

William Joseph Powell, Iris Smith.

These are the two people we're looking
for.

I don't know if they're in the hotel or
not. I don't know if they're together or

they're separate.

They're armed and dangerous.

Brennan, why don't you stay here? Keep
an eye on the back of the building. Al,

why don't you come with me?

They're alone. Get ready.

You, Sergeant Hunter, LA Police
Department.

Ever see those two people before?

I don't know. William Joseph Powell, Ira
Smith. Take another look, please.

Yeah, they look like the Joneses. The
Joneses. Are they in their room?

How the hell do I know?

What room are they registered on?

411.

411.

You got trouble on the way.

I told them you were in bar 11.

Okay. Thanks.

I heard shots. What's going on? Talk to
me. What's going on?

Brennan is coming out.

We got an officer down.

shot fired, shot fired!

What the hell are you calling me out
here for?

Chief.

Tell me something. You were captain down
in San Pedro about eight years ago,

weren't you?

Yeah, I know where I was eight years
ago, Charlie. The question is, what am I

doing here now?

You had some business with Ed Clayton
then, didn't you?

Ah, that's it then.

That's why you didn't want to talk in
the office.

Okay.

This better be good.

I was looking through his personnel
file.

About eight years ago, he was arrested
by one of your traffic officers and then

released without explanation.

You mind telling me why?

I have no idea what you're talking
about.

Well, the way Clayton rolled over on the
Jack Small case, you'd think that

someone had him on a really short leash.

Someone like you, maybe?

Yeah, tilting at windmills, Charlie, had
nothing to do with Jack Small's

release. Well, I intend to look very
carefully into his professional life

I get an answer.

You leave Clayton out of this.

You're wasting the department's time and
mine.

Would I be wasting IAD's time?

You want to go to Internal Affairs?

I'll hold the door open for you.

And I'll show you the way to personnel,
where you can turn in your ID and resign

in lieu of what? In lieu of nothing.

You're not going to force me out. If you
want me out, you'll have to go the

whole route. And while you're out
trumping up some... disciplinary action

against me, I'm going to nail you with
one that sticks.

What are you playing at?

A division commander taking on a deputy
chief?

Forget it, Charlie.

Because you're going to lose.

And you're going to regret you ever
heard my name.

Commander 1 William, come in, please.
Commander 1 William, respond.

1 William, go.

We have a report of an officer -involved
shooting near 5th and Los Angeles

streets. One officer killed, another
wounded.

What about the shooter?

Sergeant Hunter was reported to be
involved in a foot pursuit of the

Get an air unit over there right away.
I'm on my way.

Roger. I'll see you there.

All right, I'll handle it from the task
force.

Didn't you hear what they said?

One dead, one wounded.

Don't you care about your men?

Or do you only show up for the cameras
when we win?

Freeze right there!

So why did that old guy send you to the
wrong room?

Pal told him he'd cut us short if he
didn't lie to us. And the cop's dead.

Captain. Deputy Chief Moorhead wants to
see you. He's in your office.

Well.

Captain.

Sergeant.

We have things we could be doing.

So do I.

Spending half my day sending off
reporters is not in my job description.

I think if you stopped hobnobbing at
those press luncheons, Chief, and

paying attention to what this department
goes through on a daily basis, you

might have a different impression about
the people who serve this city.

And then maybe we all should stand back
and take a long, hard look at your job.

Hunter, I didn't dismiss you.

He's got a lot of work to do.

Damn it, Devane.

This city is expecting things to happen.

You're the one who made the promises,
Chief.

Well, let me clue you in.

Somebody's going to take a fall as soon
as the good folks up above decide they

need a scapegoat.

And you can be damn sure it isn't going
to be me.

Thanks for coming.

I was glad you called.

Packing up, moving out?

Yeah, my mom's going to be here in a few
days to take care of things, whatever

that means.

She wants me to pack everything up.

How are you feeling?

Okay, I guess.

You heard about me and Vice Principal
Landry?

Yeah, he told me.

Probably think I'm pretty stupid, huh?

No.

I saw the tape that you made with
Johnny.

I'm sorry.

Sorry I saw it or sorry you did it?

Both.

I tried to get it back.

I even told Johnny about you and Roger.

You set me up at the gym, too, didn't
you?

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

My whole life just kind of turned to
crap.

I'm all, yeah, let's go have fun with
the friends and everything, but it's

nobody really talks to me or knows what
I am or what matters to me.

I guess, uh, I guess you're the only
person that really knows that.

You know, Debbie, if it means anything,

I happen to think you're a good person.
You've got a good heart.

Deep down inside, underneath all that
other stuff.

Well, you may have made a few mistakes
along the way, yeah.

But I think you've got what it takes to
turn your life around.

I really do.

Thanks. I'll give it a shot.

Good.

Charlie.

Hi, Ed. Sit down.

I kind of wish I could open a secondary
office out here. It's kind of nice, you

know.

So, Charlie, something you didn't want
to deal with back at the ranch?

Yeah.

Yeah, I want to talk about a night eight
years ago in San Pedro.

When a young up -and -coming assistant
DA got drunk and took out two lampposts

in an RTD bus stop.

Yeah.

Or more to the point, what happened
afterward.

When then -Captain Moore had kicked him
loose for future favor.

Who are you talking to, Charlie?

Dr. Carlos Espinada, the arresting
officer.

He's retired now.

Yeah, he didn't even remember it, but I
waded through about five miles of

microfilm to find the original traffic
violation.

Charlie,

did you ever do something so
unbelievably stupid that you just wish

take it back?

Cut out that hour, that minute, even the
seconds of your life?

Well, Curtis Moorhead.

He did that for me.

My career would have gone down the
tooth.

He arranged to sprain me without anybody
the wiser.

Charlie, I didn't have any choice.

I couldn't say no.

So eight years later, he involves you in
a conspiracy to obstruct justice, and

you still don't say no.

Charlie, I'm telling you, he still got
me.

There was nothing else I could have
done.

Another career decision?

Now look, Ed, I know you're not a crook.

I know there's nothing basically corrupt
about you.

You made a bad mistake.

But Moorhead is a different story.

He and his type, they cheapen everything
that we do, everything we stand for.

And I'll tell you something, they will
destroy us, too, if we give them half a

chance.

I'm going after him.

It'll be a hell of a lot easier with you
standing next to me.

But either way, I'm going to get him.

Hunter, homicide.

Wasn't too cool what you did, Rick.

Wasn't too cool at all.

Well, that's how I treat all my
murderers, Iris.

That's the way it goes.

It's time.

Why don't you and I have a little chat?

Yeah, let's.

Meet me at the observatory.

You know when.

If you've done your homework.

Can we talk?

Meet me this morning in the school
parking lot.

Debbie, I'm not really interested in
your personal problems.

I need money, Johnny.

So what am I, a bank?

Can we just talk, please?

Okay. I'm about five minutes away.

Thanks. Yeah.

Hello. Yeah, Lenny. It's Youngblood.

Anything shaking? Yeah.

You think you could, uh, say, get, uh,
another grand?

You got something for me? Yeah. Just
call it a bonus tape.

You got it working, huh?

Yeah, I'm on my way to a pre -production
meeting right now.

Meet you at your place with the cash.

I got something I gotta do.

Are you alright?

I'm fine.

Look at me, will you please?

I'm real sorry about everything that's
been happening to you.

I think when you're up to it, we should
talk.

I care about you. You know that, don't
you?

All right, do you want to get whatever's
on your mind over with as quickly as

possible?

Morning, Chief.

Did you eat yet?

I have lunch.

You've got exactly five minutes.

I don't think I'm going to need even
that much time.

All right, then get on with it.

Eight years ago, you were a captain down
in San Pedro, right?

Yeah, we've been all over that.

Not the good part.

Because I believe your whole career is
one long trail of manipulative

corruption.

You want a turkey shoot, Devane?

Well, you're in the wrong neck of the
woods.

I don't think so.

I finally found out why Ed Clayton was
arrested.

DUI. Into some county property.

Starting to sound familiar?

So, an up -and -coming assistant DA
drinks too much?

Gets involved in an accident that could
end his career?

Suddenly he's reprieved.

He must have been very grateful.

I wouldn't know.

Let's ask the DA.

Clayton, I don't know what kind of
delusion you're under here, but if you

to come down to my office and talk it
over.

We've talked enough.

It's over, Curtis.

Nothing's ever over.

Things change and I adjust.

You want to tell them that I blackmailed
you?

That I forced you to do what I want?

In order to bring some kind of order
into this totally chaotic bureaucracy?

Something like that, yeah.

Well, then you're going to have to prove
it, gentlemen.

Because I'm going to deny it all.

And I got a lot of colleagues in very,
very tall positions that are going to

back me up.

Chief, I'd like you to meet Officers
Pitts and Johnson.

They're from Internal Affairs.

I think you better cancel that lunch.

I just need a couple hundred dollars.

I'll pay you back.

I'm offering you $500, and you can keep
it. Johnny, please don't. Damn it,

Debbie. You've done this before. What
the hell do you care?

I'm talking $500 cash, and all you've
got to do is the only thing you can do

halfway decent.

Don't give me those phony tears.

And you're never going to change.

So smoke some dope and kick back.

We'll make a movie and you can be on
your merry way.

Clean up your act.

That's your cash.

Hey, Johnny.

So we on?

You got the money?

So, uh, you want to stick around, or you
want a messenger service?

Yeah, I, uh... I guess I could stick
around for a little while.

Debbie?

You're $500 richer.

Earn it.

Put your hands behind your head, lace
your fingers behind your neck, you're

under arrest.

Now, what the hell for?

Let's try, for starters, transportation
of pornography across state lines and

possession of illegal drugs.

I'm going to kick you so hard, you'd
wish today was a bad dream.

Get him out of here.

Come on, let's move it. You have the
right to remain silent.

Had to wait till he brought out the
money.

I know.

You did good.

Took a lot of guts to put on a wire
coming here.

I'm just glad it's all over.

Thanks.

Well, we're right on time, Iris, just
like the calendar said.

Yeah, timing's everything, isn't it,
Hunter?

You're under arrest.

I want you to let the hostage go. Put
your gun on the ground.

Do it, Iris!

Enough innocent people have died
already.

Nobody's innocent.
