Head corner, make left, find place to parallel, park, back up, turn around,

then head back to DMV. Yes sir.

Don't worry, most people pass the first time.

You do not like your job.

Would you? You know how many times a week I drive around this block?

I tell you, too many.

Came to LA to be actor, left great job as New York City cab driver and look at me

now. You would be a good actor.

You know, some of greats of Hollywood rode in my cab and they all said the same

thing, Raj, you should be actor.

Pacino, De Niro, Jean Claude.

And them? The one and only.

We have a code 11 in progress. Make right at stoplight.

Right, I said right! In the Throw the gun over here!

Hard off! Come on! That's the Are you okay?

Oh, God. Oh, God.

We had almost completed the driver's test, but all of a sudden,

there's this giant fireball.

Many men had orange overalls with automatic weapons.

They were not...

Stolen DWP van was found behind a gas station in Echo Park.

It was torched.

Just like the other five heists.

Yeah. This is Mr. LaSalle.

He owns K-Security.

Hey, this is unbelievable.

I mean, I've been in business for 12 years.

Never been hit. Now they've hit me twice in two months.

I understand your frustration, Mr. LaSalle.

I don't think you do.

They're hitting us on Monday when we're carrying the weekend mall receipts.

My insurance rates are gonna skyrocket.

Again.

Well, we'll need a list of all the people that had access to your routes.

Yeah, sure.

Thank you. All right, what do you guys got?

Nine millimeter.

Yeah, nine millimeter.

We haven't run ballistics just yet, though, Lieutenant.

Vans, too.

I thought you said they wore gloves.

Gunmen will load this weapon before putting on gloves.

Okay, well, what else you guys got?

Man who shot him has the same tattoo.

It means they are part of something.

What, you thinking gangs, Emma?

No, military.

The leader sacrificed one of his men to keep him from talking to the enemy.

Meaning us.

Yes.

All right, get a blow-up of that tattoo.

I want to know what it means.

It looks like that armored truck guard is done with the paramedics.

See if you can get anything out of him.

Okay. Hi, uh, Mr. Stallworth?

Yeah, I know that stuff stings, but I gotta ask you some questions.

I know, I was on the job.

Really? What division?

Ours. Andy Stallworth?

Hey, Lieutenant, what are you doing here?

Last time I heard, you were one step away from badgering up down in Long Beach.

Uh, yeah, it didn't work out.

Huh.

You remember Kristen?

Yeah.

She's six now.

No.

Yeah.

So I couldn't be too choosy.

You know, kids, they don't get any cheaper.

Yeah, tell me about it.

I've been doing this about four months.

Well, I'm, you know, just glad to see that you're back on your feet again.

So tell me, uh, did you happen to see any of these guys?

They all wore masks that I could see.

They dropped in on us like commandos.

They were pros, that's for sure.

All right, well, uh, if you think of anything, you know who...

I know who to call.

Yeah, you do.

It's really good to see you again, Andy.

Thanks. Take care of yourself.

of honking. You have to run someone over not to get a license.

I have to wait four weeks for another appointment.

Four weeks? No, that's ridiculous, man.

Let me take care of that.

I'll help you cut through the red tape, all right?

Good. Have you heard from Dana?

Yeah, she called this morning.

Made her first bus to the deputy sheriff back in Black Creek, Missouri.

Why does she want to move there?

She missed her mom and her stepdad.

I understand. Family is very important.

Okay, okay. How close can you park to the fire hydrant?

Listen, when in doubt, answer B to all the questions.

Trust me on that. Statistically, you can't go wrong.

Yeah. Sir, sir.

Here's the files from hate crimes on paramilitary groups in the area.

Great, thanks.

And your coffee.

You're a lifesaver, Jane.

I went over the armored car manifests.

And even though the routes were changed at the last minute,

this crew still knew where to hit the truck.

So if there's an inside guy, who's our most likely candidate?

You're not going to like this. Andy Stallworth.

He was the only guy in the truck who had access to the new route list.

Look, just because the guy dropped off the force doesn't mean that he's our guy.

I talked to his co-workers.

They say Andy's got a gambling problem.

All right.

I'll go. Pretty crazy place, eh, Sammo?

You should see the tattoo parlors in Shanghai.

Can I help you boys?

I certainly hope so.

We've been hitting tattoo parlors all morning, hoping someone can tell us a little

about this particular design.

Oh, yeah.

I do one of those every now and again.

It stands for Liberty Republic.

They're a bunch of Aryan Nation wannabes.

I always wiggle the needle around, make sure it hurts.

What is Aryan Nation?

They're a hate group, Sammo.

Who do they hate? I guess they hate anybody that doesn't have the same skin color

as they do. Which means they wouldn't like you.

Only unhappy people worry about their skin color.

Forget about those Liberty Republic creeps.

Now, how about a tattoo?

I don't think so.

Thank you. We pass.

Oh, can I persuade you?

Take a look.

Are those birds?

Peacocks.

You have very beautiful peacocks.

Thank you. Salmon?

Welcome to our lane, my friend.

Hi, Kristen.

How did you know my name? I used to work with your dad.

Is he around?

He's in the shower.

Could you tell him I'd like to see him, please?

I'm a police officer.

Do you have a badge?

See? I'm with the Los Angeles Police Department.

You're a lieutenant?

Yes.

You're old enough to be a captain.

Just tell your dad Lieutenant Winship is here.

Why?

He'll know why.

What if he asks me why?

Could you please just go get your dad?

Okay.

Thank you. I signed up with K-Security after I struck out in Long Beach.

You get a black mark from the LAPD. It's hard to share.

Eddie, there was no black mark.

You took disability leave.

They told you you could come back, but you put your own papers in.

Lieutenant, I'm not blaming anyone.

I left the force because I couldn't focus.

Your wife was dying of cancer, man.

It's perfectly understandable.

Look, I know you didn't come here to talk about this.

What's up?

Well, we think there was an inside man, and fingers are starting to point at you.

Why? Because I had the pickup routes.

Put yourself in my shoes.

It's routine.

Look, other companies were hit, not just us.

You think I have inside knowledge on all of them?

It's a line of investigation, Andy.

You know how it works.

I'm not your guy.

Okay. Then tell me about your gambling debts.

After Nancy died, I went off the deep end.

I started to hit the tables.

Look, Daddy, I'm kicking my legs. That's great,

honey. Kristen's the only reason I survived.

I'm getting my act together here.

I swear I had nothing to do with these heists.

You don't believe me? Yeah, I want to believe you, Andy.

I do. Gotta go.

See you again.

I'll keep my eyes open. Maybe I can turn up something for you.

A little higher?

Cooper, you know better than to sneak up on a soldier when he's firing his gun.

I want to cash out, fella.

When you signed down to this operation, you made a commitment to the cause.

I would give a damn if that's your cause.

In fact, if you and your potato-head buddies want to go on back to Idaho and start

your own country, go right ahead.

I just, uh, I want my share of the take.

Two more jobs.

That's what you contracted for.

That's what you're going to do.

Well, how do I know that I'm not going to end up with a bullet in the back like

Grimes?

Grimes was a casualty of war.

I want you to check something out.

Take a good look at this, brother. Did you do that?

Yeah. It's not bad. I just want you to see what you're going to look like if we

ever have this conversation again.

Take it easy, bro.

Great. I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here. Grace, you have an idea on a tattoo tote?

I'm still working on it, but better yet, the lab got a hit on a partial thumbprint

from the casing that Sammo found.

Bobby Lee Somerset, a local freelancer with a sheet for armed robbery.

And it seems when Bobby's not busy playing trigger man, he's out surfing.

He's got a condo in Santa Monica.

Good work. All right, call Lewis and Sammo.

I want them to go wax Bobby's board.

Okay, I'm on

it.

Looks like the big kahuna right here, Sammo.

Beale Somerset, 202.

You ever try surfing, Sammo?

Sure.

On the net.

On the net.

What do you say we start buzzing other apartments?

I guess not.

What do you see, Sammo?

The apartment is dark inside, but the candles are burning.

Go there.

Where?

There.

Right there.

Do this.

And this.

All right, don't tell me.

This part about working with you is definitely the surprises.

Ah.

Hey, Sammo, you're like Spider-Man.

Super-sized.

Now, wait for me.

Where are you going?

You're all fair.

Sorry about that. Ah!

Nice

rope.

You sure this was the place Bobby Lee told us about?

Yeah. What do you have?

Two waters. Two cops.

Good. Now we can skip to the bonus round.

We're looking for a guy called Wes Cooper.

Sorry, don't recognize the face.

He's a pretty bad dude, man.

Likes to jack armored cars.

Like I said, I don't know him.

Well, that's interesting, isn't it, Sammo?

Yes, very.

See, Sammo and I just had a little chat with Bobby Somerset.

Bobby's telling us that Wes is a regular here.

Likes to knock back a couple of Heinekens, belt out Love on the Rocks.

I knew Diamond.

What?

How do you know about...

Hey, you want us to take you in for obstruction?

Coops is regular as a clock.

Should be in any minute.

But you didn't hear from me, okay?

Your cops is here looking for you.

Hey, Andy.

Hey, Lieutenant.

How you doing? Hey, Kristen.

Listen, I have some ideas I think might be of help.

Oh, Andy, you're not investigating this case.

I just got a hunch.

What do you got for me? I wouldn't know for certain until I check it out, but...

Nobody's gonna clear my name unless I do.

This thing's gonna follow me wherever I go.

Come on, Andy.

Lieutenant, please.

Trust me.

You think Kristen could stay here a while?

What? I couldn't get a sitter.

Come on, what, here?

Come on. I'm not running any kind of show.

She'll be so good.

She'll sit at a desk with a coloring book.

Look, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I cannot do that, Andy.

You know that. I'm sorry, man.

He's not gonna give us anything, Lieutenant.

Whoever he's working for has him good and scared.

I'm thinking this guy's just a hired help like Bobby Lee.

Yeah, how do you know?

No tattoo.

Very good.

Hi, Lieutenant.

Buck Grimes, our dead bad guy from the heist.

Ex-Army Ranger, served in Desert Storm.

Last known address is Hadley, Idaho, which also happens to be the home of the

Liberty...

Who the ATF suspects of gun running and dealing explosives.

The FBI seems to think they're responsible for burning down several churches and

synagogues across the Midwest.

So these guys are robbing armored trucks to finance their activities.

Alright, call ATF and see if they can hook us up with a list of known Liberty

Republic members.

I'm on it. Oh, uh, by the way, I had Jane put Kristen in your office.

Lieutenant, I am so sorry.

Andy told me you gave him the okay.

I thought you were just trying to help him out.

It's alright, it's alright, Grace. Don't sweat it.

It's not your fault. Jane, could you give us a few minutes, please?

Sure. She's adorable.

Hi, Kristen. Remember me?

I'm Lieutenant Winship. Sure.

Can I have some juice?

Juice? Yeah, sure.

Juice.

Look, I'm going to need your help, sweetie.

Do you know where your dad went?

No.

I like orange best.

Orange.

We can do orange.

Are you sure he didn't tell you where he went?

I'm sure.

Apples okay, too.

Okay, you try. Kristen, sweetie, did daddy tell you when he was coming back?

No.

That's pretty nail polish.

Can I try some?

You sure can.

Detective Chen is going to be looking after you.

I am? Yes, you are.

You're not going to let her out of your sight, are you?

No, sir.

Want to play some blocks?

Yeah, sure. We can play some blocks.

Got that? Now do it!

So how's it going, David?

How's it going? Trying to make killing machines out of marshmallows.

That's how it's going. I hear you.

Listen, let me ask you a question.

Does your brother still work at the DMV? You need a favor, huh?

Actually, Sammo does.

See, my man here, he's going to have his wheels parked if he doesn't get a hurry-up

appointment at the DMV. They're telling him he has to wait four weeks.

That's a long time without a license.

Tell you what. You help me with a little demonstration,

and I'll see what I can do for you, Sammo.

Maybe you should find a different volunteer.

David, are you crazy?

I think maybe...

No! I think he's perfect for this.

David, I think you should find a different volunteer.

No, listen. Waited weeks for the delivery of these sticks.

35 hours of intensive training from the best instructor in the Marine Corps.

I'm prepared. But hey, Sammo, if you're afraid, you're going to get hurt.

Okay.

What do you want me to do?

All right, class, listen up.

Today's lesson is a demonstration on how to deal with an opponent who has a weapon

other than a knife or a gun.

Detective Law here has agreed to help me with a little demonstration.

Attack!

Come on. This ain't mine, class.

Hit me!

Come on. That was just a little example of what you should look for from your

opponent. Here's another example.

Are you okay?

Don't worry. I'll get you your appointment.

Thank you. What does it say on line three?

T-C-E-F-P-B-Z. You're sure?

Very clear to me.

T-C-E-F-P-B-Z. This is pathetic, man.

I've been waiting over an hour.

And this is a line for appointments?

Someone stole my license plate, and now I've got to be here and deal with this

mess?

I'm sorry, sir.

Why would someone steal your place?

Personalized place.

Don't. En.

Ve. You.

Get it? That's good.

My place.

The bomb.

That's you? You better watch it.

Those will be gone before you know it.

Sam O'Law? Right here.

What do you need? To get my driver's license.

Baby, I know that already.

You're gonna have to be a little more specific.

I need to take the driver's test again.

Uh-huh.

Well, I got some bad news for you.

You need to fill out this form and this form.

Take the eye test, the written test, and then take yourself over to window C,

which is only open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 to 4.

Have a good day. Next!

Wait, wait, wait. I have already done that.

And?

I don't mean to be trouble.

Mr. Glickstein?

You're so sweet.

Let me check something.

Whoa.

They're the weapons. And don't make me use them.

Okay, look, you failed your driver's test.

You're gonna have to start all over.

You have beautiful eyes, like black pearls.

Stunning. Are you trying to butter me up?

No. I'm just telling the truth.

Is Thursday afternoon okay for your driver's test?

Perfect. Next!

Somerset and Cooper got taken down by the cops.

If you knew anything about prisoner of war mentality, Mr. LaSalle,

you'd know that a soldier won't crack as long as he's got something to live for.

My call is those two guys are looking for their back end.

Do they know about me, Fallon?

They're on a strictly need-to-know basis.

Well, good, because I'm out.

That's a shame, because the movement still needs funds.

Taking down these trucks is getting too damn risky.

I mean, sooner or later, these cops are gonna play connect the dots.

And when they do, it's gonna point right back to me.

You're right.

It is too risky taking down those trucks one at a time.

So it's time to implement a new strategy.

You're looking for something?

Heard from Andy? No, nothing.

He said he was working on a hunch he had about this case.

Lieutenant, I talked to say.

I talked to some of Andy's friends.

You know, after his wife died, Andy dropped Kristen off at his sister's and

disappeared on a three-day gambling binge.

No, no, no. He said he was all through with that.

Maybe he fell off the wagon.

Yeah, well, if you hear anything, just give me a call.

I'll be at home. Okay.

Children can sense when things are wrong.

That is why she cannot sleep.

You know, I tried reading to her, but it didn't work.

Let me try. Hello, Kristen.

Hello, Kristen.

Who are you? I'm Sammo. Sammo, when is Daddy coming back?

We hope soon. I miss him.

You know, when I was a boy in China, my mother used to sing a song to me when I

could not sleep. What kind?

Would you like me to sing it to you?

世上只有妈妈好 有妈的孩子像个宝 投进妈妈的怀.

心浮下楼…心浮下楼…

Kristen, you must eat.

I'm not hungry.

But it is breakfast of champions.

What is it?

Open it.

For Dolly, to protect her on a rainy day.

Thank you, Santa Claus.

show him it?

Only if you finish your breakfast.

We picked up Bobby Lee Somerset's wife.

Seems Mrs. Somerset is less than blissfully married.

Lewis is interrogating her now.

Keep me posted.

Sure thing.

That's him.

I told him not to get involved with that crew.

They were gonna look out for him.

Can you ID any of the other members?

Just the leader. A guy called Fallon.

Bobby Lee hooked up with him at the gun club in the valley.

Luther Fella?

LAPD. What can I do for you?

That's a nice tattoo.

Are you a member of the Liberty Republic?

Well, having a political point of view isn't a crime, is it?

No, but blowing up churches and synagogues is.

You just here to hassle me, officers?

Investigating a homicide in a series of armored car robberies.

Where were you Monday morning?

I was home in Idaho.

Really? Yeah, really.

Church meeting went a little late Sunday night.

Got up early Monday morning, did some farm chores.

So then what are you doing here in Los Angeles?

I go back and forth quite a bit.

Sell threshing equipment.

Threshing equipment? Yeah.

Wow, I didn't know there was such a big demand for threshing equipment in L.A. Hey

guys, I'm just trying to cooperate, all right?

Is that a fact? You know what?

We think you're trying to finance your own little revolution, Fallon.

Maybe you want to move the nation's capital to Hadley, Idaho.

No, brother.

I just want to keep America pure.

Send people like her back to their own country.

That's funny.

You don't look Native American.

Where should we send you?

Hey.

I know exactly where I'm going to send you.

Yeah? Yeah.

We'll be seeing you soon.

Let's go, Grace. Fallon's alibi checked out.

Checked the airlines.

There is no way he could have made it back and forth from Idaho to L.A. based on

those flight schedules.

Shoot, I don't believe it.

All right, keep up surveillance of the army truck routes.

And let's isolate the ones that we think may be vulnerable.

Where's Sammo?

Babysitting.

You know, Lieutenant, if Andy doesn't show up soon,

we're going to have to turn Kristen over to child welfare.

I'm aware of that, Lewis.

Let's just give the man to the end of the day, why don't we?

Why don't we?

What is your science project?

We have the choice of growing a seed, showing how the solar system works,

or building a volcano.

Volcano is the shoe thing.

Yeah, but that's the toughest one.

Toughest project will bring you the best grade.

But my dad comes to do it with me.

We will do it together. When I was a boy in China,

we were taught that learning comes from a challenge.

You don't know anything about building a volcano, do you?

Not really.

Just like my dad.

Let's lock and load.

No questions in the field, gentlemen, so if you've got them, ask them now.

What about him?

We keep him for insurance until the mission's complete.

Now let's get it on.

Hi.

We want to build a volcano.

This big.

This big.

We need a check on wire.

Aisle 8.

Plaster of Paris.

Aisle 4.

Wood.

Lumber.

Back of the store.

Thank you.

Did I mention my science project is due tomorrow?

Then we will complete it tonight.

After being bed by 8.

Okay. I will complete it tonight.

Last year, Timmy Slater's mom built him a tornado and he got first place.

Do you have his mom's phone number?

Sammo?

Yes?

I have to go to the bathroom. Okay.

You have to come with me.

No problem.

My dad always stands right outside the door.

I'll be right here.

Okay. Don't go away now.

Promise? Promise.

What

you reading, pops?

So there's Sammo?

Sure.

Right here.

It's a robbery.

Cash. Yeah, okay.

I don't want any problems. Let me just get it.

Come on. Come on!

Hey, German Mouth, this is none of your business.

Down! There's Sammo!

Shoot him! Right here! Oh!

Your men must get out of here!

Are you still there, Sammo?

Yes, Kristen.

I'm still here.

Okay?

Yeah.

Also, we need a wire cutter and a big roll of brown paper.

Don't forget the baking soda to make the volcano sizzle.

And baking soda for sizzle.

Hey, Lewis, we just had an alarm.

Case security. Hit another armored truck?

Nope.

Main Depot. Gotta go.

Let's go.

Hey, Mac. Glad to see you.

While we were monitoring the truck routes, they went for the mother road.

Yeah. Looks like they double-crossed their inside man on his own turf.

Franklin's son.

I think we found our inside guy.

There's gotta be a way to crack Fallon's alibi, Lieutenant.

There's gotta be a way.

How?

He's got a whole church congregation lined up in Hadley just waiting to say he was

there Sunday night and Monday morning.

His minister even called me and bent my ear about what a pillar of the community he

is.

Fallon's robbed a lot of trucks.

He's made a lot of money.

Maybe. Maybe they bought their own plane.

I'll check plane registrations in Idaho.

Good idea. Hey, where's Sammo?

DMV test.

You again? I'm ready to prove to you I can be a California driver, sir.

Drive on.

Lieutenant, we got it.

Yeah, yeah. Lieutenant, we got it.

Fallon's got his own G3.

We checked flight records.

His plane took off from Hadley at 5.

59.

Monday landed at Van Nuys at 7.

33 a.m.

Giving him plenty of time to pull the heist.

Hey, did he file a return flight plan?

Yes, he did. He leaves Van Nuys in a half hour.

Not if we can help it. Let's get out there.

Da-da-da-da. So far, so good. Ben, I'm going to get my license.

I think we can safely say that you were...

Oh, excuse me. Yes, Luis?

Where? Sorry, for his business. All right, Ben, let's get this bird in the air.

Fellas, you want to dump him now or get rid of him later?

How about over at Salt Lake City?

Come on, get up! Aah! Oh, God.

Aah! Aah!

I

realize that all the companies that were robbed all belong to the same security

association.

Which means they all submit bids to the same client.

Right. So an insider at one company would have knowledge of the other company's

roots. How'd you figure this out?

He was our company's rep to the association, and he said it was worth a shot.

Wow. That's a great job, Andy.

Thanks a lot. Nice work.

Hey, look, I don't know if you're still interested in us,

but I could put in a call to Long Beach so we could do about getting you back on

the force. Daddy!

Honey! Oh!

Oh, honey!

You okay? Yeah?

Hi. Guess what, Samuel?

Our volcano came in second!

Who came in first?

A few months later, his mom built him an asteroid.

Hmm. Asteroid.

I wish we had thought of that.

Thank you. Show me your volcano.

Yeah. I apologize, Mr. Patel.

Don't, don't. I've never seen anyone drive like you.

Not even in New York.

You know, to be able to handle a vehicle like that is an honor.

What does that mean? You will get your license in the mail, Mr. Locke.

Oh, thank you. You have inspired me.

I'm going back to New York.

I miss being a cabbie.

Okay, you've picked a loot.

Take me back to DMV. Oh, no problem.

And this time, no police business.

Whoa. Is this real leather interior?

You have very beautiful eyes.

That reminds me of black pearls.

Stunning. What Computer, yeah.

Take it.

Take a look at these. Asteroid.

I wish we had... ...

pilot... ...pilot...
