PREVIOUSLY ON THE DISTRICT...

I WORKED AT STATESMAN AS A RENT-A-COP, REMEMBER?

WHEN THE HEART TRANSPLANT HAPPENED?

ALEX ANDREW GILSON.

WHY YOU FOLLOWING ME, HUH?

AW, ALEX.

THIS IS A ONE-WAY STREET. YOU GO DOWN HERE,

IT'S GONNA GET YOUR ASS KILLED.

STAND UP.

YOU GOT SOMEBODY ELSE'S HEART.

GO ON.

YOU GOT A SECOND CHANCE.

Operator: 911 EMERGENCY.

Man: I NEED HELP! I'VE BEEN ROBBED!

I HAVE YOUR LOCATION. I'M SENDING THE POLICE.

[EXPLOSION]

ARE YOU THERE?

HEY, MIKE,

WHEN YOU'RE DONE HERE, I NEED YOU TO TAKE SOME PHOTOGRAPHS

OF THE CAR, ESPECIALLY THE FRONT SEAT, OK?

Debreno: HEY, CHIEF. GENTLEMEN.

Mannion: NOW, WHO'S THE VIC?

LUKE SULLIVAN, STATION OWNER.

BURNED TO DEATH WHEN THE GAS TANK EXPLODED.

WE FOUND SHELLS ON THE GROUND

AND A REGISTERED SHOTGUN, REGISTERED TO THE OWNER.

SUSPECT CRASHED INTO A PARKED CAR TRYING TO ESCAPE.

MONEY WAS SCATTERED ON THE FRONT SEAT

AND AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE STORE.

WELL, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING, BOTCHED ROBBERY?

LOOKS THAT WAY. SULLIVAN PROBABLY TOOK

A COUPLE OF SHOTS AT THE ROBBER.

ONE OF THEM HIT THE GAS PUMP.

SUSPECT'S OVER HERE IN THE AMBULANCE.

YEAH, NO I.D. HE AIN'T TALKING.

HOW BADLY IS HE HURT?

NOTHING BIG. POSSIBLE CONCUSSION, FEW LACERATIONS.

WE'RE GONNA RUN HIM BY STATESMAN,

GET AN X-RAY.

YOU CAN HAVE HIM IN ABOUT AN HOUR.

GOOD.

HEY, CHIEF,

CHIEF, I DIDN'T DO THIS.

Alex: CHIEF, I DIDN'T DO THIS!

[AMBULANCE DOOR SLAMS]

MY GOD.

CAPTIONING MADE POSSIBLE BY CBS PRODUCTIONS AND CBS, INC.

USED TO BE A TIME PEOPLE FEARED

FOR THEIR SAFETY, MOSTLY AT NIGHTTIME.

THIS FOOLISHNESS AT THE GAS STATION

OCCURRED IN BROAD DAYLIGHT.

THEY BRING THE SUSPECT IN YET?

NO. YOU SEE THIS HEADLINE?

"POLICE INDEMNITY:

YOUR GOOD TAX DOLLARS PAY BAD COP'S DAMAGES."

THEY FOUND TEMPLE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES.

WHY DO THEY KEEP STICKING IT TO THE GUY?

DID YOU GUYS READ THE FOXTR CARTOON?

HILARIOUS.

HOW WE DOING ON PRINTS AT THE CRIME SCENE?

NOTHING WE CAN USE RIGHT NOW.

WE CHECKED THE REGISTER RECEIPTS.

THE LAST TIME STAMP MATCHES THE TIME OF THE 911 CALL.

THE RECEIPT BEFORE THAT WAS STAMPED 2 MINUTES EARLIER.

THE LAST CUSTOMER BEFORE OUR PERP.

HOW ABOUT SURVEILLANCE VIDEO?

IT'S NOT MUCH HELP. IT'S OLD AND FUZZY.

LEV'S TRYING TO CLEAN IT UP.

THEN CHASE THE RECEIPTS. MAYBE WE GOT SOMEBODY

IN THE STORE BEFORE THE ROBBERY.

GET OURSELVES A WITNESS.

YOU DON'T WANT ME TO SQUEEZE THE PERP FIRST?

NO. IF I WANTED YOU TO SQUEEZE THE PERP,

I WOULD'VE TOLD YOU, DEBRENO.

YOU GOT AN ISSUE WITH THAT?

NO.

ALL RIGHT, GO TO WORK. GO TO WORK. COME ON.

WHAT'S EATING YOU?

$200.

WHAT?

WE GOT 2 LIVES RUINED FOR $200.

A GAS STATION OWNER WORKS HIS WHOLE LIFE

FOR HIMSELF, FOR HIS FAMILY.

HE GETS MURDERED FOR 200 BUCKS

IN THE CASH REGISTER.

WHO'S THE OTHER LIFE?

AND ALEX GILSON, THE SUSPECT.

THIS KID HAD HIS WHOLE LIFE TO LOOK FORWARD TO, JOE.

HE JUST THROWS IT AWAY.

UNFORTUNATELY, WE CAN'T TEACH PEOPLE THE VALUE

OF THEIR OWN LIFE.

MAYBE WE CAN TEACH THEM THE VALUE OF SOMEBODY ELSE'S.

JACK, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

IT'S ELLA, JOE.

I CAN'T LET GO OF HER.

THE KID--

THE SUSPECT, ALEX GILSON--

HE GOT ELLA'S HEART.

SO I FOUND HIM 3 WEEKS AGO OR SO.

I TRACKED HIM DOWN.

HE HAD A GUN ON HIM...

AND I BROUGHT HIM IN, I TALKED TO HIM...

AND LET HIM GO.

I THOUGHT-- I HOPED...

[SIGHS]

THAT I CONVINCED HIM THAT...

HE WAS BLESSED TO HAVE THIS SECOND CHANCE.

AND NOW THERE'S A MAN DEAD,

AND...

MAYBE I WAS WRONG.

[SIGHS]

Alex: I WAS GETTING GAS,

AND THIS CAT JUST COMES OUT OF THE STATION

SHOOTING AT ME FOR NO REASON.

I WAS JUST TRYING NOT TO GET HIT, MAN,

CRASHED THE CAR.

WHY WAS HE SHOOTING AT YOU?

MAN, I DON'T KNOW.

NO CLUE?

NO CLUE.

AND THAT'S MY STORY, CHIEF!

WELL...

YOU TELL THEM WHAT THEY NEED TO KNOW.

Alex: MA, STAY OUT OF THIS.

GAS STATION WAS ROBBED.

THE MONEY ALL IN YOUR CAR,

AND YOU DON'T KNOW HOW IT GOT THERE?

THAT WAS MY MONEY.

IT FELL OUT OF MY WALLET.

AND THE WALLET JUST JUMPED BACK UP INTO YOUR POCKET.

THAT'S YOUR STORY?

THIS ISN'T A SNATCH AND GRAB, ALEX.

A DEATH THAT OCCURS DURING A FELONY,

LIKE THIS ROBBERY, IS FELONY MURDER.

MURDER?! YES, 30 YEARS TO LIFE.

YOU ASKED ME WHAT HAPPENED,

AND I TOLD YOU WHAT HAPPENED.

I DIDN'T KILL NOBODY,

AND I DIDN'T ROB NOBODY.

HE'S LYING.

AND IT'S A MAN DOESN'T NEED TO LIE.

FILE CHARGES.

I WAS ON MY WAY TO CHURCH,

TO HELP OUT WITH OUR FOOD DRIVE,

WHEN I STOPPED TO GET A PACK OF CIGARETTES.

THEY'RE MY ONLY VICE.

PLUS 2 CANDY BARS, SOME ORANGE JUICE,

AND A BAG OF POTATO CHIPS.

WAS THERE ANYONE ELSE IN THE STORE

WITH YOU AT THE TIME?

I DO REMEMBER SOMEONE COMING IN

AS I WAS LEAVING.

I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT AT THE TIME,

BUT I REMEMBER HEARING A LOUD NOISE,

AND THEN RIGHT AFTER THAT, SOMEONE BUMPED ME HARD

WHILE I WAS WALKING AWAY.

DID YOU GET A LOOK AT HIM?

NOT A GOOD ONE,

BUT HE WAS WEARING A RED SPORTS JERSEY.

GOOD. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE

YOU CAN TELL ME ABOUT HIM?

UM...

HE DROPPED THESE.

I SUPPOSE THAT'S EVIDENCE.

SO, ALEX WAS DRIVING THE CAR, NOT HOOFING IT DOWN THE STREET.

SUSPECT NUMBER 2 WAS RUNNING FROM THE CRIME SCENE.

UNFORTUNATELY FOR HIM,

HE DROPPED SOME OF HIS LOOT.

Mannion: CRISP, BRAND-NEW TWENTIES.

THE TWENTIES WE FOUND AT THE CRIME SCENE

AND IN ALEX'S CAR, THEY WERE ALSO NEW.

SO LET'S FIND THE OTHER GUY.

[WOMAN LAUGHING]

LOOK AT US, GIDDY LIKE A COUPLE OF SCHOOLGIRLS.

EXCUSE ME. [LAUGHING]

I DON'T KNOW WHAT MY EXCUSE IS,

BUT YOU, MOM, YOU HAD 2 MARTINIS.

APPLE MARTINIS.

UH-HUH. HERE, I'LL DRIVE.

IT'S LIKE DRINKING CANDY.

IT DOESN'T COUNT. [LAUGHS]

OOH, IT'S COLD!

OHH!

Mrs. Parras: SO, WHAT DO YOU SAY?

ONE QUICK GAME OF SCRABBLE?

COME ON, 2 MARTINIS,

YOU CAN BEAT ME. [LAUGHS]

Mrs. Parras: OOH!

WHAT ARE THEY DOING? OH, HONEY--

IT'S A CARJACKING!

Mrs. Parras: HONEY!

GET THE LICENSE.

HONEY, I CAN'T-- IT'S 4--

I CAN'T READ IT. 4-2-7--

GRAB ON TO SOMETHING! GET DOWN!

[BREATHING HARD]

YOU OK?

I--I THINK SO, YEAH.

YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT I SAW SOMEBODY

HANGING OUT BY THE CAR

WHEN WE WALKED OUT OF THE RESTAURANT.

I SHOULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING TO YOU.

I'M GONNA FILE A REPORT.

DID YOU GET THE REST OF THE PLATE?

NO, HONEY. I'M SORRY.

IT ALL HAPPENED SO FAST.

I JUST SAW THIS BLACK CAR COMING AT US SO FAST--

IT'S FINE. YOU DID GOOD, MOM.

OK, LET'S GO HOME.

WHAT--WHAT IF THEY'RE STILL FOLLOWING US, HUH?

IT'S OK.

I THINK WE LOST THEM.

OK.

WE'LL TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME,

AND I'LL SPEND THE NIGHT.

OH, THANK YOU, HONEY. THANK YOU.

GARY.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, BUDDY?

I KNOCKED ON YOUR DOOR.

ARE YOU OK?

WHERE'S YOUR MOM?

MOM'S WAITING FOR ME OUTSIDE.

I NEED YOUR HELP.

"THE DOUBLE TROUBLE BUBBLE GUM

BIG BUBBLE CONTEST."

UH...

GARY, I'M KIND OF BUSY RIGHT NOW.

ALL RIGHT, BUDDY? I'M SORRY.

MOM SAID YOU WOULD SAY THAT.

YOUR MOM? SHE SAID WHAT?

MOM SAYS YOU'RE NOT APPROACHABLE.

NOT APPROACHABLE?!

GARY!

Debreno: GA--

OK.

WELL, 2 ATTACKS IN ONE NIGHT ISN'T RANDOM.

YOU JUST BOUGHT THE CAR?

2 DAYS AGO... [CHUCKLES]

AT AN IMPOUND AUCTION.

WHAT?

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THIS?

TELL YOU WHAT?

MOM, YOU NEVER BUY A CAR AT AUCTION.

YOU DON'T KNOW THE CAR'S HISTORY.

HEY, THIS IS INTERESTING.

COME OVER HERE, GUYS.

I WANT TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING.

YOU SEE THESE PRINTS?

PRINTS USUALLY LEAVE A STATIONARY IMPRINT,

LIKE WHEN YOU PICK UP A GLASS AND YOU PUT IT DOWN,

BUT THESE PRINTS ARE-- THESE PRINTS ARE NUTSY.

YEAH, YEAH. THEY'RE SMUDGED, HUH?

LIKE SOMEONE'S GRABBING AT IT,

TRYING TO POP SOMETHING OPEN.

THIS WASN'T ABOUT STEALING THIS CAR.

NOPE. THIS WAS DEFINITELY ABOUT

LOOKING FOR SOMETHING INSIDE THIS CAR.

WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO COVER FOR, ALEX?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

I'M TALKING ABOUT THE GUY THAT WAS SEEN

RUNNING FROM THE GAS STATION TODAY

WITH A FISTFUL OF CASH.

FRIEND OF YOURS?

ALEX, YOU PROMISED ME

THAT YOU WOULD STAY AWAY FROM HIM.

NOW I SEE WHERE THE ATTITUDE IS COMING FROM,

AND THIS IS NOT LIKE YOU.

MA, PLEASE!

THIS IS NOT LIKE YOU AT ALL!

HIS NAME IS SHANE ROLLINS.

MA, YOU DO NOT KNOW THAT! WHO IS HE?

ALEX'S COUSIN.

OH, HE THINKS HE'S THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD,

BUT HE'S TROUBLE!

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

YOU TELL HIM.

I TOLD THEM WHAT THEY NEED TO KNOW.

I SAID YOU TELL HIM, ALEX.

Mrs. Gilson: LOOK AT ME.

I SAID TELL HIM.

JACK...

I JUST HEARD THE PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE

IS THINKING ABOUT CHARGING ALEX GILSON AS AN ADULT.

IF THEY DO,

HE'S LOOKING AT A LIFE SENTENCE.

CAN I GET YOU A CUP OF COFFEE?

NO, THANK YOU.

MRS. GILSON, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

ABOUT CONTACTING A LAWYER?

ALEX DIDN'T DO THIS.

HE'S CONFUSED, AND HE'S ANGRY,

BUT HE'S INNOCENT.

WELL, YOU'RE HIS MOTHER.

YOU BELIEVE IN YOUR SON.

YES.

THAT BELIEF DOESN'T MAKE HIM INNOCENT.

SO YOU'RE GONNA PUT MY SON IN JAIL

FOR BEING AT THE WRONG PLACE AT THE WRONG TIME?

CHIEF, UH...

ALEX TOLD ME WHAT YOU DID FOR HIM A FEW WEEKS AGO.

DID HE TELL YOU HE HAD A GUN?

YES, SIR.

WELL...

[SIGHS]

MRS. GILSON...

I THINK I MADE A MISTAKE IN LETTING YOUR SON GO.

SOMETHING WOULDN'T LET YOU WRITE HIM OFF.

ALEX IS THE WALKING MIRACLE WE ALL WANT HIM TO BE.

BY GOD'S GRACE, HE'S ALIVE,

AND HE KNOWS THAT.

CHIEF, HE KNOWS THAT.

AND THAT'S WHY I KNOW THAT HE COULDN'T HAVE DONE THIS.

I DON'T KNOW.

YOUR SON...

[SIGHS]

YOUR SON MAY HAVE TO GO TO JAIL.

HAVE YOU PREPARED YOURSELF FOR THAT?

I HAVE MORE HOPE THAN THAT.

HEY, HEY, BRUCE!

OH, NO. MANNION, NO.

WHATEVER IT IS, NO.

MY DOCTOR HAS JUST DIAGNOSED ME

WITH HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.

I CAN DIRECTLY CONNECT IT TO YOU, OK?

BRUCE, I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT ALEX GILSON.

YOU'RE CHARGING HIM AS AN ADULT.

HE'S A KID. HE'S 17 YEARS OLD.

OK, FIRST, ROBBERY WAS PREMEDITATED.

SECOND, BY PUSHING THE CLERK,

HE USED FORCE TO COMMIT THE CRIME.

THIRD, THE KID WAS AT THE SCENE,

HE WAS PRACTICALLY COVERED IN STOLEN MONEY.

FOURTH, THE GAS STATION OWNER IS DEAD.

OK, THAT'S FELONY MURDER.

THESE ARE NOT THE ACTIONS OF A CHILD.

BUT WAIT A MINUTE. BRUCE! BRUCE!

IT LOOKS LIKE THERE MAY BE A SECOND SUSPECT.

WELL, GOOD. GOOD.

YOU CATCH HIM, AND WE'LL KILL 2 BIRDS,

WE'LL DRIVE MY CONVICTION RATE UP,

AND MAYBE I'LL RUN FOR CONGRESS.

[CHUCKLES]

YOU LOSE YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR?

NO.

WELL, IT WAS FUNNY. IT WAS FUNNY.

BRUCE, IF THERE IS A SECOND SUSPECT OUT THERE,

HOW CAN WE KNOW WHAT ALEX GILSON'S INVOLVEMENT WAS

UNTIL WE CATCH THIS GUY?

JACK, WHAT IS THIS?

THIS ISN'T YOUR USUAL CRUSADE.

DO YOU HAVE SOME REASON TO THINK HE'S INNOCENT?

WELL...

I TALKED TO HIS MOTHER.

SHE THINKS HE'S INNOCENT.

OK, JACK.

YOU GOT MY NUMBER, RIGHT?

SEDANS, WAGONS, SUVs.

THESE DAYS, ANYTHING WITH 4 WHEELS AND A GAS TANK

CAN HAVE A HIDDEN COMPARTMENT.

YOU KNOW, TRANSPORTING GUNS, STOLEN GOODS, PEOPLE.

PEOPLE?

[CHUCKLES] YEAH.

THAT'S A 5'7" WOMAN STUFFED INTO

A HOLLOWED-OUT DASHBOARD OF A CAR.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

SHE WAS TRYING TO SNEAK ACROSS THE BORDER.

IF THE PERPS MESS UP AND THEY DON'T GET

THEIR STASH OUT OF THE CAR BEFORE WE CONFISCATE IT

AND AUCTION IT OFF,

MOST OF THEM WOULD RATHER TAKE THE CAR BACK.

BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.

YEAH, EXACTLY.

TO THEM, IT'S EASIER TO WHACK A GUY

THAN RISK A PAPER TRAIL.

BUT DON'T YOU FIND THE GOODS

IN YOUR SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE?

NOT ALWAYS.

GETS A LITTLE TRICKY.

SEE, YOU CAN TAKE 3 OR 4 OR AS MANY AS 10 STEPS,

EVEN AS DETAILED AS SAY SENDING THE RADIO TO WGDI

BEFORE THE CORRECT ELECTRICAL CURRENT

IS TRIGGERED THAT RELEASES THE TRAP'S PISTONS.

THIS LOOKS LIKE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO

WITH THE CENTER CONSOLE.

YOUR THUGS PROBABLY MISSED THE COMBINATION

AND TRIED TO FORCE THE TRAP OPEN.

OK, THAT EXPLAINS ALL THE FINGERPRINTS, RIGHT?

YEAH.

HEY, IF YOU LIKE JAMES BOND, YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THIS.

Ray: OH, YEAH?

[BEEPING]

[HORN HONKS]

IT'S IMPRESSIVE, HUH?

YEAH, I'D SAY SO.

HEY, GUYS, YOU GOT A PAIR OF PLIERS?

OH, HEY, THANK YOU.

LET'S SEE WHAT WE GOT HERE.

LOOKS LIKE SOME COMPRESSED PAPER THAT'S BLEACHED.

I'LL BET YOU MONEY THIS IS MONEY.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

THAT'S SOME PRETTY INTENSE BUBBLE BLOWING.

OH, HEY, PARRAS,

I GOT YOU THAT FILE YOU WANTED ON AUTO THEFT.

OH, GREAT.

HEY, LISTEN, UM...

HAVE YOU EVER HEARD ANYONE SAY

THAT I'M NOT APPROACHABLE?

YEAH.

I CAN SEE HOW SOMEBODY WOULD SAY THAT.

YOU'RE NOT THE MOST OPEN PERSON IN THE WORLD.

WELL, YOU KNOW SOMETHING,

I TRIED THAT OPEN CRAP A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO,

AND IT WASN'T WORTH THE TROUBLE, OK?

SEE, CLOSED OFF.

DEFINITELY NOT APPROACHABLE.

YEAH, THANKS.

SERGEANT, WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE DOING IN HERE?

GET 'EM OUT OF HERE. GET 'EM OUT OF HERE!

APPARENTLY, THE DC CHRONIC ARTICLE

MADE AN IMPACT WITH THE MAYOR.

HE'S PLANNING TO MAKE A STATEMENT.

OH, IS HE NOW? WELL, LET ME GUESS.

HE'S GONNA COME OUT AGAINST PROTECTING POLICE OFFICERS

FROM FINANCIAL JUDGMENTS.

LOOKS THAT WAY. REELECTION'S NEXT YEAR.

Mannion: YEAH, OF COURSE.

HE'S GONNA PICK OUT SOMETHING

THAT CONNECTS HIM TO THE PEOPLE.

AT THE SAME TIME, HE'S GONNA STICK IT TO ME.

THAT MAN IS RELENTLESS.

[KNOCKS ON DOOR]

Mannion: YEAH, COME IN!

CHIEF.

CHIEF, SHANE ROLLINS' RAP SHEET.

VANDALISM, DISTURBING THE PEACE,

CURFEW VIOLATIONS.

MOSTLY JUVIE STUFF.

HE'S BEEN CLEAN FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND HALF.

Mannion: YOU SHOWED THE MUG SHOT TO THE WITNESS?

YEAH. SHE CAN'T SAY THAT HE WAS IN THE STORE,

BUT SHE'S PRETTY SURE THAT'S THE GUY THAT BUMPED INTO HER,

SO WE SENT A UNI OVER TO THE ADDRESS

THAT KAY GILSON GAVE US.

HE WASN'T THERE.

MM-HMM.

CHECK HIS FRIENDS, YOU KNOW, HIS HANGOUTS,

NEIGHBORS.

THIS GUY TAKES $200 FROM SOMEBODY,

HE'S NOT GONNA BUY A TICKET TO FRANCE, IS HE?

HE'S OUT THERE SOMEWHERE.

FIND HIM.

YUP.

Mannion: HEY, TEMPLE.

THIS THING WITH THE MAYOR AND THE PRESS--

CHIEF, I'M FINE. YOU SURE?

YEAH. THANK YOU.

[LOCKER OPENS]

HEY, KEVIN.

Debreno: YEAH?

ARE WE COOL?

WITH WHAT?

YOU KNOW, WHEN I--

OH, YOU MEAN WHEN YOU PUNCHED ME IN THE FACE?

YEAH. ARE WE COOL?

THAT'S YOUR WAY OF APOLOGIZING?

I WAS TRIPPING. I WAS UNDER A LOT OF PRESSURE.

RELAX, I'M JUST BUSTING YOUR HUMP.

IT'S WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE.

WE'RE COOL.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT ANYWAY.

THAT'S JUST SOME STUPID OP-ED PIECE.

Debreno: M.P.D.'s GOT YOU COVERED.

WELL, IT DIDN'T FEEL LIKE THAT WHEN I WAS ON THE WITNESS STAND,

I'LL TELL YOU THAT.

A COP DOESN'T PAY CIVIL JUDGMENTS

OUT OF HIS OWN POCKETS.

THAT'S WHY WE HAVE A CONTRACT.

IF THE MAYOR TRIES TO CHANGE THAT POLICY,

F.O.P.'s GONNA BE ALL OVER IT.

A LOT OF GUYS ARE GONNA WALK.

I DO NOT WANT TO BE THE CAUSE OF SOME WALKOUT.

COUNT IT ALL JOY WHEN YOU FALL INTO VARIOUS TRIALS,

KNOWING THAT THE TESTING OF YOUR FAITH

[TOGETHER] PRODUCES PATIENCE.

[LOCKER CLOSES]

WHAT? I'M NOT A TOTAL HEATHEN.

WOULD YOU SAY THAT I'M UNAPPROACHABLE?

YEAH. REALLY?

Joe: YOU CAN'T WITHDRAW INDEMNITY FROM TEMPLE PAGE.

YOU'LL PUT EVERY COP IN THIS CITY AT RISK.

I AM PROTECTING THE CITIZENS OF THIS CITY

FROM OUT-OF-CONTROL VIGILANTE COPS,

WHICH IS SOMETHING YOU AND MANNION DON'T SEEM WILLING

OR ABLE TO DO.

YOU HAVE NO BASIS--

LISTEN, TEMPLE PAGE DOES NOT DESERVE

TO HAVE THE CITIZENS OF THIS CITY

PICK UP THE TAB FOR HIS LIABILITIES.

YOU DO THIS, YOU'RE GONNA TURN YOUR ENTIRE POLICE FORCE

INTO A BUNCH OF CLOCK PUNCHERS.

AND HOW WOULD THAT BE DIFFERENT THAN NOW?

OFFICER FINISHES HIS SHIFT,

DECIDES TO TAKE IN A MOVIE ON HIS WAY HOME.

THERE'S A ROBBERY OUTSIDE THE MOVIE THEATER.

THE OFFICER HAS HIS WEAPON, BUT HE CANNOT USE IT

BECAUSE HE HAS NO PROTECTION

FROM BEING SUED BY SOMEONE FOR COMING TO THE RESCUE.

YOU HAVE GOT TO COVER OUR ASSES,

OR YOU'RE GOING TO TURN YOUR COPS

INTO CIVILIANS.

THAT IS HOW IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT,

MR. MAYOR.

COME ON, GIRL! I'M NOT PLAYING WITH YOU!

OPEN UP THIS DOOR!

OPEN UP THIS DOOR BEFORE I--

SHANE, M.P.D.!

Debreno: HEY, M.P.D.!

GIVE US YOUR ARM.

YOU GOT HIM? YEAH.

GET UP!

SHANE, I'M GONNA ASK YOU ONE MORE TIME.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING AT THAT GAS STATION?

JUST GETTING GAS.

THIRD-DEGREE BURNS, HEAD TO TOE.

THAT'S A PAINFUL WAY TO LEAVE THIS WORLD.

LOOK AT IT.

I SAID LOOK AT IT!

THAT WAS YOU.

YOU DID THAT, ALEX.

NOTHING TO SAY?

Alex: I--

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENED, ALL RIGHT?

I'LL TELL YOU THE TRUTH.

YOU MAY NOT WANT TO TALK, SHANE,

BUT YOUR COUSIN ALEX JUST TOLD US

YOU DID THE WHOLE THING.

MY LITTLE COUSIN SAID THAT?

MM-HMM.

YOU GOT A DIFFERENT VERSION TO THE STORY?

YES, SIR.

I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON.

ME AND SHANE JUST LEFT CHARLENE'S HOUSE.

WHO'S CHARLENE?

THAT'S MY GIRL.

SHE HAD STUFF TO DO, AND--

SO ME AND SHANE WENT OUT BY OURSELF.

Debreno: WHERE? WHERE'D YOU GO?

Alex: NOWHERE SPECIAL, MAN. WE WAS JUST HANGING.

AND AT THE GAS STATION,

SHANE GETS OUT OF THE CAR,

SAYS HE WANTS GUM OR SOMETHING.

HE SAID HE WANTED A SNACK,

SO HE WENT INTO THE STORE.

AND WHAT DID YOU DO?

I PUMPED THE GAS.

Debreno: OK.

SO WHILE SHANE'S IN THE STORE,

WHAT DID YOU DO?

JUST CLEAN MY WINDSHIELD AND PUMP GAS.

THE NEXT THING I KNOW, ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE.

IT WAS CRAZY.

I MEAN, I LOOK UP,

AND ALEX IS RUNNING OUT OF THE STORE, YELLING.

HIS HANDS ARE SO FULL OF MONEY

THAT IT'S FALLING ON THE GROUND.

I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON.

THEN I REALIZED IT WAS MONEY.

Alex: HE'S SCREAMING AND YELLING,

AND BEFORE I COULD EVEN GET A WORD, OUT COMES THIS--

THIS OTHER GUY.

THE STORE OWNER.

Debreno: THEN WHAT?

SHANE JUMPED IN THE CAR SCREAMING, "GO!"

THIS GUY'S WAVING A BIG-ASS GUN AT US.

GO IS WHAT I DID.

A GUY HAD A GUN.

IT WAS POINTED AT ME-- AT US.

I GOT IN THE CAR, TOO.

THEN YOU CRASHED?

I HEARD A SHOT. SHANE WAS SCREAMING, "GO!",

THEN I CRASHED.

[EXPLOSION]

AND SHANE?

Alex: SHANE TOOK OFF, MAN.

AFTER THAT, I--I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. IT'S ALL--

IT'S ALL BLURRY, YOU KNOW.

THE PUMP BLEW UP.

[EXPLOSION]

ALEX FREAKED AND DROVE INTO A CAR.

AND YOU JUST BOUNCED?

YOU LEFT YOUR COUSIN THERE TO TAKE THE RAP?

HE TOLD ME TO GO.

GO!

I'M NOT THE ONE

WHO ROBBED THAT PLACE, OFFICER.

GOD, I DON'T KNOW WHY HE DID IT, MAN.

I DON'T.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

THEY'RE LYING.

BOTH OF THEM?

JACK, EMOTION IS WHAT GOT YOU

INTO THIS MESS TO BEGIN WITH.

DON'T LET THAT SAME EMOTION

SWING SO FAR TO THE OTHER SIDE

AND BLOCK YOUR WAY OUT OF IT.

YOU HAVE GOT TO AT LEAST

ENTERTAIN THE NOTION THIS KID MIGHT BE INNOCENT.

SEE, FIRST OF ALL,

WE GOT TO GET THE GUM GOOD AND MOIST, OK?

BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO OVERDO IT.

YOU DON'T WANT TO CHEW IT TOO MUCH,

'CAUSE THEN IT STARTS TO GET TOO HARD.

THEN YOU FLATTEN IT OUT WITH YOUR TONGUE... LIKE THIS.

THAT'S IT.

MAYBE I CAN GET A TROPHY IN BUBBLES.

THAT WOULD MAKE ME COOL, HUH?

YEAH, I GUESS SO.

HERE, YOU TRY IT.

PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH...

AND CHEW...A LOT.

DON'T GAG.

GAG'S NOT--THAT'S NOT GOING TO HELP YOU WIN THE CONTEST.

THE FIELD OF U.S. CURRENCY IS NOTORIOUSLY DIFFICULT TO DUPLICATE.

COUNTERFEITERS TAKE REAL $1.00 BILLS, BLEACH THEM,

PRINT WHAT WE CALL SUPER NOTES.

$100 BILLS, RIGHT?

USUALLY, BUT MY BET IS THEY WERE GONNA TURN THESE INTO TWENTIES.

BUT THE TWENTY'S JUST BEEN REDESIGNED.

HOW'D THEY CATCH UP SO FAST?

THEY HAVEN'T.

NEW CURRENCY DESIGN MEANS A RUSH TO CREATE

OLD, EASIER TO COUNTERFEIT CURRENCY

WHILE IT'S STILL LEGAL TENDER.

$50,000 TURNED INSTANTLY INTO A MILLION.

GIVE THE EXPRESSION "IT TAKES MONEY TO MAKE MONEY" NEW MEANING.

WE SHOULD SHARE THIS COLLAR.

OH, YEAH?

SECRET SERVICE-N.P.D. TAG TEAM, HUH?

DO IT THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY.

PUT THE VEHICLE BACK ON THE STREET,

STAND BY, WATCH, FOLLOW...

AND APPREHEND.

MOM'S DEFINITELY SHAKEN UP A BIT, BUT SHE'LL BE OK.

WELL, GOOD.

WHAT ABOUT YOU? YOU ALL RIGHT?

YOU SEEM A LITTLE DISTRACTED.

YEAH, YOU KNOW, I'M JUST THINKING ABOUT, UH...

HOW LITTLE RESPECT WE GET AS COPS.

YOU KNOW, THIS THING WITH TEMPLE AND THE MAYOR,

WANTING TO CHANGE THE RULES,

NOT PROTECT US FINANCIALLY.

I MEAN, WHERE'S A COP GOING TO GET $400,000?

IT'S A WAR.

JUST BECAUSE THE MAYOR REHIRED THE CHIEF

DOESN'T MEAN HE LIKES HIM.

SO?

THAT MEAN HE'S GOT TO RUIN A COP'S LIFE

BECAUSE HE'S GOT A THING WITH MANNION?

ALL'S FAIR IN LOVE, WAR, AND POLITICS.

WE GOT MOVEMENT.

ALL RIGHT, BOYS, TAKE US TO YOUR LEADER.

[STARTS ENGINE]

THEY'RE INSIDE THE WAREHOUSE.

WE ALREADY TOOK OUT 2 GUYS STANDING GUARD.

GREAT. LET'S DO THIS.

Parras: WHERE'D EVERYBODY GO?

LOOK ALIVE. THESE PUNKS DIDN'T SPONTANEOUSLY DISAPPEAR.

AND WATCH YOUR BACK.

[THUMPING]

HEY.

WE GOT SOMETHING OVER HERE.

UNSECURE DOOR AROUND THE CORNER.

LET'S GO.

POLICE! GET YOUR HANDS UP!

GET YOUR HANDS UP! GET 'EM UP WHERE WE CAN SEE 'EM!

DON'T--DON'T MOVE.

DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!

UHH!

STAY DOWN! DON'T MOVE!

DOWN! DOWN! DON'T MOVE!

STAY DOWN! GET BACK!

TEMPTING, ISN'T IT?

ONLY IF YOU LIKE PRISON.

PUT YOUR HANDS ON THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD. TURN AROUND.

DO IT!

CHARLENE STOCKTON CHECKS OUT.

ALEX CAME BY THAT MORNING, ASKED HER TO DITCH WITH HIM,

BUT SHE REFUSED.

IS SHE COVERING FOR HIM?

THERE'S NO TIME TO SET IT UP.

THE ONE CALL THAT ALEX MADE WAS TO HIS MOTHER.

I THINK IT'S ALEX. Page: WHY?

HE'S BEEN LYING FROM THE BEGINNING.

HE COULD HAVE TOLD US ABOUT SHANE.

INVITING YOUR GIRLFRIEND TO GO WITH YOU ON A JOB?

WHY NOT?

UNLESS THEY'RE THE TEENAGE BONNIE AND CLYDE,

IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.

ARE YOU GONNA TAKE A DATE ON A STICKUP?

WELL, IT DEPENDS ON THE GIRL, SIR.

SHE MIGHT BE A GOOD DRIVER.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

WAIT A MINUTE.

YOU SAID HE TOOK THE TIME TO PUMP GAS

AND CLEAN HIS WINDSHIELD.

NOW, WHO DOES THAT BEFORE THEY STICK UP A STATION?

WELL, YOU DON'T WANT TO LOOK SUSPICIOUS.

PLUS, YOU NEED GAS TO MAKE A QUICK GETAWAY

AND A CLEAN WINDSHIELD TO SEE WHERE YOU'RE GOING.

YOU DO THAT STUFF BEFORE YOU GO ON THE JOB,

NOT WHILE YOU'RE DOING THE JOB.

WHOEVER WENT INTO THAT STORE

WENT IN KNOWING EXACTLY WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO.

I'M TELLING THE TRUTH, CHIEF.

THAT'S FOR A JUDGE TO DECIDE.

WHAT ABOUT YOU? DO YOU BELIEVE ME?

THEY'RE GONNA COME FOR YOU IN THE MORNING, ALEX.

THE COURT WILL APPOINT YOU A LAWYER.

SHE WAS YOUR FRIEND, WASN'T SHE?

WHO WAS MY FRIEND?

THE LADY...

I GOT MY HEART FROM.

ELLA FARMER.

MY MOMS TOLD ME SHE WAS A COP OR SOMETHING, RIGHT?

HOW'D YOU FIND OUT?

THE LIBRARY.

I CHECKED THE OBITUARIES FROM THE DAY I GOT MY HEART.

SO, IS IT TRUE SHE WAS YOUR FRIEND, CHIEF?

SHE WAS MY FRIEND.

I KNEW IT.

THAT'S WHAT I FIGURED.

WHEN YOU LET ME GO THAT DAY,

I COULDN'T SHAKE WHY WAS IT THAT A COP--

YO, CHIEF, WHERE YOU GOING?!

YOU GOT TO GET ME OUT OF HERE, MAN!

CHIEF, YOU GOTTA HELP ME!

THIS IS NOT THE TIME NOR THE PLACE.

WELL, YOU'RE NOT GONNA CHARGE HIM AS A JUVENILE.

AT LEAST ALLOW A BAIL THAT HIS MOTHER CAN HANDLE.

JACK, THE CHARGE IS FELONY MURDER.

YOU'RE LUCKY TO GET ANY BAIL AT ALL.

YOU'RE ASKING FOR A LOW BAIL.

BRUCE, THE KID IS SICK.

HE NEEDS TO BE AT HOME UNDER THE CARE OF HIS MOTHER.

NOW, I MEAN, WHAT'S THE USE OF--OF--

OF GOING FOR A DE FACTO JAIL SENTENCE WHILE THE KID'S WAITING

TO SEE IF HE GETS A JAIL SENTENCE.

JACK, I'M NOT THE JUDGE, BUT LISTEN TO ME.

THIS KID THAT YOU'RE GOING TO BAT FOR,

HE COULD BE A KILLER, RIGHT? HE COULD BE?

AND I'M TELLING YOU, I'VE BEEN A COP 30 YEARS.

EVERY INSTINCT I HAVE SAYS HE'S INNOCENT.

I'LL PROVE IT.

COUNSEL.

YOUR HONOR,

WE REQUEST THAT THE DEFENDANT BE RELEASED UNTIL HIS TRIAL DATE.

THERE'S NO EVIDENCE TO SUGGEST THAT HE'S A FLIGHT RISK.

RELEASED ON HIS OWN RECOGNIZANCE?

[CHUCKLES] ON FELONY MURDER CHARGES?

MR. LOGAN. YOUR HONOR,

DUE TO THE DEFENDANT'S RECENT MEDICAL CONDITION

AND TO THE CHARACTER WITNESS OF POLICE CHIEF JACK MANNION,

WHO, LET THE RECORD SHOW,

IS PERSONALLY VOUCHING FOR MR. GILSON,

UM, WE HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE REQUEST.

Judge: GRANTED.

YOU'RE GOING TO HEAVEN.

CHIEF MANNION...

I THOUGHT POLICEMEN TOOK AN OATH TO SERVE AND PROTECT.

WHO ARE YOU?

I'M FRANK SULLIVAN.

SON OF LUKE SULLIVAN?

MR. SULLIVAN, I'M SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

YOU GOT A STRANGE WAY OF SHOWING IT.

MY FATHER IS DEAD.

HE DIED IN A WAY I WOULDN'T WISH ON MY WORST ENEMIES,

AND I DON'T SEE ANYBODY GRIEVING FOR HIM.

WHAT I DO SEE IS YOU FIGHTING TO CUT BREAKS

FOR THE BASTARD WHO CAUSED HIS DEATH.

I PRAY YOU GET TO FEEL THE PAIN I FEEL ONE DAY.

TAKE A LISTEN AT THIS.

I'VE ISOLATED SEVERAL SOUNDS FROM THE 911 CALL.

Woman, on tape: 911 EMERGENCY. OPERATOR 469.

Luke Sullivan: HELP! I NEED HELP! [BEEPING]

I'VE BEEN ROBBED!

WHAT'S THAT BEEPING SOUND?

THAT IS THE CASHIER'S FUEL PUMP MONITOR.

IT BEEPS EVERY FEW SECONDS

TO INDICATE WHEN GAS IS BEING PUMPED.

WELL, AT LEAST THEY'RE BOTH TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT THAT.

BUT HOLD ON. THAT MEANS THEY DIDN'T PAY FOR THE GAS INSIDE.

YOU WOULD HAVE SEEN IT ON THE SURVEILLANCE TAPE.

SO THEY PAID AT THE PUMP.

SHANE, WE GOT A PROBLEM.

YEAH. MAYBE YOU CAN HELP US OUT. WHO BOUGHT THE GAS?

ME. Page: WITH WHAT?

HERE'S A HINT:

ALEX'S MOTHER'S DEBIT CARD.

BECAUSE ALEX GAVE IT TO ME.

YOU GOT A PIN NUMBER?

[LAUGHS] WHAT?

PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER.

YOU CAN CONFIRM THAT, RIGHT?

[SIGHS]

I FORGOT IT.

OH, PLEASE.

YOU FORGOT IT?

ALEX GAVE IT TO ME...

AND I FORGOT IT.

ALL RIGHT?

A BAD MEMORY AIN'T A CRIME.

LAB BOY'S HAVE BEEN WORKING ON IT FOR A COUPLE DAYS,

BUT IT AIN'T MUCH CHOP. YOU'LL SEE.

FERRIS, CAN YOU RUN THE VIDEO?

SURE.

THANKS.

Mannion: WHAT IS THAT?

I DON'T KNOW. CIGARETTES, MATCHES.

THAT'S IT. THAT'S ALL WE GOT.

SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

SNATCH AND RUN.

PERP TRIED TO GET SULLIVAN TO OPEN THE REGISTER

SO HE COULD MAKE HIS MOVE.

SO HE BOUGHT SOMETHING.

THAT'S WHAT HE'S DOING THERE.

Mannion: FERRIS, WOULD YOU RUN THAT AGAIN, PLEASE?

Mannion: YEAH, FROM THERE. GOOD.

ALL RIGHT. STOP. RIGHT THERE.

NOW, UH,

PUT UP CRIME SCENE PHOTO 12-A AND OVERLAY THAT.

CAN YOU GO IN TIGHT?

THAT'S GUM.

SO HE BOUGHT GUM.

[SIGHS]

HEY, SCOTTY.

HOW YOU DOING?

FINE, SIR.

SHANE.

HOW YOU DOING?

I'M ALL RIGHT.

GOOD.

SHANE...

GOTTA TELL YOU...

I THINK, UH, YOU, AND YOU ALONE,

ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR LUKE SULLIVAN'S DEATH.

I'M SORRY. YOU'RE WRONG, SIR.

AM I? OH.

YOU TOLD ALEX YOU WANTED TO BUY...

A PACK OF GUM.

FOUND THAT IN YOUR PERSONAL PROPERTY.

YEAH. I BOUGHT IT 3 DAYS AGO.

3 DAYS AGO? WHERE?

YOU PURCHASED THE GUM...

TO GET LUKE SULLIVAN TO OPEN THE REGISTER.

A SNATCH AND RUN, RIGHT?

YOUR PRINTS ARE ON THE GUM,

SO WE KNOW IT'S YOUR GUM...

RIGHT?

LIKE I SAID, IT'S MY GUM.

I COULD HAVE BOUGHT IT ANYWHERE.

EXCEPT...

YOU DIDN'T BUY IT ANYWHERE,

BECAUSE MR. SULLIVAN'S PRINTS ARE ON THE GUM, TOO.

HOW DID LUKE SULLIVAN'S PRINTS GET ON THE GUM?

SEE, DIDN'T THEY GET ON THE GUM...

WHEN HE SLID THE BAR CODE ACROSS THE SCANNER?

RIGHT?

ISN'T THAT WHAT HAPPENED?

NOW, THAT PUTS YOU IN THE STORE...

AT THE TIME THE STORE WAS ROBBED...

AND YOU KILLED LUKE SULLIVAN.

YOU'RE GOING TO GO TO PRISON, SHANE...

FOR FELONY MURDER...

WHICH IS A LIFE SENTENCE.

LIFE...

OR...

YOU COULD COOPERATE...

AND GET OUT BY YOUR 50th BIRTHDAY.

THAT'S SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.

ALEX HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

GOOD. NOW RIGHT THAT DOWN.

NICE!

IT WAS EVEN BIGGER THAN THAT.

CONGRATS, BUDDY. I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT.

HEY, WANT A SODA?

I LOVE GUM.

SO DOES MARIANNE.

MARIANNE? WHO'S MARIANNE?

OH! YOU DOG!

ALL THIS TO IMPRESS A GIRL, HUH? HA HA HA!

MY MAN! THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

THOUGH I ANTICIPATE LEGAL CHALLENGES TO THE CONTRARY,

EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY,

FINANCIAL INDEMNITY WILL BE A PRIVILEGE

AND NOT A AUTOMATIC RIGHT.

IN THE CIVIL CASE OF RICHARDS VS. PAGE,

WHERE DETECTIVE PAGE WAS FOUND LIABLE,

IT IS THE CITY'S INTENT, WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE CITY COUNCIL,

TO NOT PAY THE $400,000 IN DAMAGES.

TEMPLE PAGE ACTED ALONE THAT FATEFUL NIGHT,

AND HE MUST PAY THE CONSEQUENCES

WITHOUT THE WILLFUL SUPPORT OF THIS CITY.

TAXPAYERS CANNOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE

FOR THE RECKLESS ACTIONS OF ONE MAN.

[TURNS TV OFF]

THANKS FOR CALLING, NANCY.

I THOUGHT YOU SHOULD BE HERE.

I DIDN'T THINK WE WERE GOING TO GET A SECOND CHANCE.

Kay Gilson: IS IT OK TO FIND JOY IN SOMEONE ELSE'S LOSS?

IT'S A GIFT.
