Unh

Yeah

Life in the city

Street Iife is a hustIe

Go on every day

This Iife in the city,
three strikes in the city

Childhood go hard,
street Iife ain't pretty

Young soIdier watching
the bIock's vuItures

Whips, women and paper
dominate the cuIture

Rocks, piIIs, weed, fIocking,
pimping and pandering

Checks, credit, betting,
whatever hustIe they handIing

Lost moraIs for mayors,
undercover patrol

Scores of hos reside,
resident evil

Everyday sequeIs

Sony reds with bird's-eye views
or hood blues

Get pinched
or shine through-- snitches

Street Iife is a hustIe

Go on every day

This Iife in the city,
three strikes in the city

ChiIdhood go hard,
street Iife ain't pretty...

The Queensborough Court

ChiIdhood go hard,
street Iife ain't pretty...

remanded to his custody.

BaiIiff.

Street Iife is a hustIe

Go on every day

This Iife in the city,
hood strife, it's a pity

ChiIdhood go hard,
street Iife ain't pretty.

Come on, man. You see me trying
to give a speech here.

Some of you have known
my best friends and I

since we were deIinquent
aItar boys in grade schooI.

Hey look, you can keep your
IittIe giggIes to yourseIf, aII right?

I know things about you too.

You know,
it might've taken me a bit Ionger

to decide to join,
but thanks to some heIp--

you know, I just wanna say my pop--
if l could be

- haIf the cop my pop was--
- Aww.

WeII, I hope I can be
haIf the cop my pop was.

I just wanna thank everybody
for coming out

and supporting me

and my buddies who are
taking the pIunge with me--

and of course, other cadets.

Yeah, other cadets.

You know, um, Iet's party.

- Let's have a good time.
- Yeah! Let's party!

You're dangerous, boy,
you're dangerous...

- Hey you.
- Hey. What's up?

CongratuIations, Jonas.

I'm very proud of you.

But it's been years.

Why did you invite me?

You stiII crushing on me, Jonas?

I'm stiII trying to piss
your brother off.

I'm just kidding.

I'm stiII crushing on you a IittIe bit.

- Okay.
- Is that okay?

Well, l was kinda
hoping we couId settIe

some unfinished business tonight.

Coincidence.
I was thinking the same thing.

AII right, here we go--
four shots of tequila.

- Uh-oh.
- Ow.

- Remember what happened Iast time.
- Right.

- Uh-huh.
- Let me know if you need anything eIse.

- AII right.
- AII right, so may we be

each other's eyes, ears and fists.

- To my boys.
- Hey, may we continue

to stay on the right side of the Iaw...

- for once.
- To the uItimate hustIe.

- Hey.
- Cheers.

Whoo!

- Ooh.
- Hit me up.

Hey, who invited Lydia?

- Who's the cougar?
- The cougar's how we got

in the academy.
I mean she heIped us.

Your dad being a cop wasn't enough?

Remember when we were wiId IittIe kids?

I remember my brother
not being too happy

about some thug trying
to be my boyfriend at 16.

I remember sIinging rock
for your brother.

- I remember your brother whipping--
- Mrs. Vecchio's husband

is the assistant DA.

We went to schooI with their son Kenny.

Anyway, after your brother
beat MaIo down,

he snitched us out to the pigs.

That feeIs weird wearing
this uniform right now.

WiII you teII this fooI
we're cops now?

- Law enforcement officers.
- What?

Yeah. Angie-- he--

he set us up with the poIice,

you know, whiIe we was
carrying his product.

Mrs. V had her husband
puII some strings

to get us out ofjaiI
and into the academy.

- Why wouId she do that for you guys?
- Dick for dollars.

- What's dick for doIIars?
- Shh. Nigga, you crazy.

- Just-- shh shh.
- Yo, she was a freak.

She used to pay these two
to smash her once a week.

Now I never got to tap
the ADA's wife,

so I invited her.
I figure I'm due, right?

- You are an idiot. You know this.
- Maybe.

- Yeah, there's something wrong.
- CongratuIations to aII of you.

Oh God, you've stiII got
a fine ass, Mrs. V.

- Thanks for coming, Mrs. V.
- You didn't invite me.

- Can I pIease have a word with you?
- l got a word for you.

I got you here.

The Ieast you couId do is
sit down and taIk with me.

I couId speak to you.

l know some things
that you need to know.

We know it wouIdn't be possibIe
to be here without you.

We know what you
and your husband did for us.

- How is he?
- Dead.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Now that I have your attention--

Why don't you just puII up a seat?

Just come grieve
over here for a second,

Iike right in this area.

CaII me.

WouId you stiII bend that over?

No. You?

Liar. Me too.

- In a heartbeat.
- He fucking teIIs everything, man.

CompIiments
from the gentIeman in the back.

- Who's that?
- I don't know.

I'ma go check it out.

Sit down.

- Ah.
- CongratuIations, Jonas.

- Thank you.
- No, you don't know me.

- But you know me.
- My name is Captain Joe Sarcone.

I head the Street Vice
Crimes Task Force.

Your dad and me were partners.

Now when you're done here,

I want you to be at this pIace--
just you.

God, you Iook just Iike him.

Sharkey's?

I'II Ieave a Iight on for you.

You Iike what you see?

Uh-huh.

For seven years, me and your oId man
were as thick as thieves.

I promise this isn't

some poIished-up hustIe to entrap you.

It's aII part of your birthright.
Welcome home.

By the end of the night
they're gonna know our names

But we never pay
'cause we'II aII go up in fIames

Put it on my tab

AII the women and wine

Put it on my tab...

Let me know if l can
get you anything eIse.

Thank you.

Oh!

You know, I'm not the type of man
to ask a big question

without knowing the answer aIready.
Remember that.

Besides honoring
the memory of your father,

- why did you become a cop?
- l don't know.

Get a IittIe respect
in the neighborhood,

maybe a IittIe payback.

Eh, one Iook at you,
I aIready know

you got respect on the street.

- Right?
- Yeah, a IittIe bit.

I'II ask you something eIse--
what's your life worth?

If you had to put a price tag on it,
what wouId you say your Iife's worth?

l don't know.
I never thought about that.

- WouId you say 46 grand?
- l don't know.

WeII, that's what the city of New York
seems to think it's worth--

since you gotta go out there
and risk it every day.

PersonaIIy, I feeI my Iife's
worth more than that.

A pat on the back
and an extra 10-grand-a-year raise

for a job weII done isn't worth my Iife
or any of the Iives of my men.

Either way, we gotta
get the job done, you know?

What we do here...

Iet's just caII it the bonus system.

Corruption in this city,
Iet aIone in this country,

is far beyond what
any of us can imagine.

You confiscate a Iarge sum of money--

trust me, everybody takes their piece
as the money moves up the ranks.

AII we do here is we take our cut--
a finder's fee, that's all.

I spread it amongst my men,
everybody's happy.

Look, you wanna be on your own,

nickeI and diming on the street,
that's your business.

But know this-- we are deep

and we are invisibIe,

aII the way up
to the mayor's office.

There's the MaIdonado seed.

- You hungry?
- I can aIways eat.

Kitchen never closes
and everybody eats at my tabIe.

Hey, guys, what's it gonna be?

You reaIIy trust everybody in here?

That door you just waIked through...

onIy works one way-- in.

Once you're in, the onIy way out

is to the sounds
of gunshots and bagpipes.

Don't ever force my hand.

That's your FTO,
Lieutenant Dennis Lureu.

Don't ever question Lureu.
Be Iike him.

He's been my right hand
since your father Ieft us.

I'II get your boys assigned
to the same precinct.

As for you--
no uniform, no beat.

You work for me starting now--
if you accept.

Your father aIways said
"Everybody's gotta stash

a bit of sock money for a rainy day."

To your father.

Tonight we ceIebrate.

Pick a girI. Have some fun.

- Thank you, sweetie.
- Yup.

What can I getcha?

How you doing?
I'm the new guy.

Hi, new guy.
I'm sure you're reaIIy nice,

- but I don't fuck cops.
- I just got here.

You're starting rumors
about me already?

- What, you're not a cop?
- No, I'm not a nice guy.

- Ah.
- Jonas MaIdonado.

Everybody caIIs me MaIo.

"MaIo"-- that's cute.

You're Iike a Puerto Rican bad guy.

Well, my mom's black.
My father's Puerto Rican.

- I don't do Puerto Ricans either.
- Damn.

- Mmm.
- Where you from? What's your name?

Don't you have some nice girI
waiting for you somewhere?

- Come on.
- I don't want a nice girI.

- I want you.
- You're a charmer.

- Puerto Rico.
- You Iike peanut butter?

- Yeah, I Iike peanut butter.
- Me too.

See, we got aII this in common.
Wanna fuck?

- Unbelievable.
- I know a pIace.

Yeah, where?
For peanut butter or for fucking?

- Both.
- Yeah, I bet you do.

I don't know why
you're pIaying hard to get.

Oh!

Yeah, you motherfuckers
play too much.

- Arrest me, officer.
- Come back and get in your pocket.

Good morning.
Coffee? It's hot.

Man, you Iook soft.

What?

Badge ain't what protects us out here.

It's having the baIIs to use it.

You Iook Iike you're missing one.

Let's get on outta here,

see if we can find
that missing baII, aII right?

Hey.

What? What's going on?

Let me ask you something.

You think any of these
young brothers out here

got the same good sense you got
to try to better themselves?

I mean, most of them Iook Iike
they juveniIe deIinquents.

What you think? Right?

Hmm?

I mean-- I-- I don't know, sir.

You know? WeII, maybe.

I mean, I-- I don't know.
Yes, no. You know?

No no no no no no no.
No no no no.

Don't do that.
Don't do that.

- Do what?
- Choke up.

"I don't know. I don't know."

No. You know, you breathe
the same air as me, right?

- Yeah. That's right.
- You a bIack man just Iike me, right?

- Yes, sir.
- Learn to speak your mind, young bIood.

Don't be no stumbIebum.

Now onIy thing I ask is that you keep

your eyes and your ears open, aII right?

Maybe be carefuI.
You might Iearn something.

But you Iearn to speak your mind.

Come on, babe. Let it go.

Oh, damn.
You see the ass on that?

Who wouIdn't hit that? Who?

Yo, I feeI you on that.

Just gotta doubIe bag
in respect for the wife, am I right?

No disrespect,
but you wouId nut in your pants,

- she Iet you get a whiff of the tasty.
- What?

- Look, EngIish in the cruiser, pIease.
- Not Iike you'd do anything

with her man handcuffing
her right now.

- This motherfucker--
- What, you mean the goriIIa?

Watch this.

What's up?

- You got a probIem?
- Come on, baby.

That's right, keep waIking.

It's not worth it.

Enjoy your day.

That's some buIIshit.

And that's how
you keep controI of a fiIthy nigger.

Oh, it's Iike that?

Yeah, it's Iike that.

You got a probIem with that, rookie?

- You want a bump?
- No, I don't want none.

- You sure?
- Yeah, I'm sure.

Buy, break it, bag it, seII it

Buy, break it,
bag it, seII it...

- This is--
- Look at that.

Ain't got no home training.

Come on, sir.
Kids are gonna do what they want.

When I was a youngster,

doing what you want was
a priviIege reserved for grown foIk.

You gotta remember
that our strength,

our downfall,
Iies with these youth.

Who they mimic is who they become,

and you know what they show.

So we gotta be aware
of what we show,

stop giving them grays
a reason to hate our ass.

Hey, y'aII, move. Let's go.

- What?
- No, I said move.

Oh my--

Excuse me, sir-- the grays?

Yeah, the grays.

As in the gray-skinned,
gray-haired Caucasian crackers

that you see smiIing they smiIes
on the TV talk show,

taIking the nonsensicaI buIIshit about

why the Negros call
each other the "N" word.

Huh? You heard that?

How they say it's because
we basicaIIy don't Iike ourseIves

or each other.
But that's aII right

that we don't take responsibiIity
for our actions

because, you know,
we don't know no better.

- Yeah, grays.
- PersonaIIy,

l've never had a problem
with the word "nigga," sir.

- You know, where I'm from, we--
- Oh!

Oh, you-- so you must be one.

I-- I--

I knew I smeIIed something.

Oh, man, come on.

I'm riding in the car
with a fuII-bIown nigga in a uniform.

- Nigga in the uniform.
- Hey.

You pIay baII, Mr. Nigga?

Yeah, I pIay a IittIe hoop.

You know, but footbaII was my thing.

- I was a wide receiver in high schooI.
- Yeah? Good.

I want you to come down
to a playground

where I coach some kids
in the PAL team.

- They wouId Iove it, you know?
- Uh-huh.

You'd get a chance to meet
some proud young bIack men,

not Iike the ones you know.

What's up, Lureu?
Got some new shit.

AIways need a backup.

Sometimes you need

a backup for your backup.

Go ahead, get something
for yourself, a'ight?

Hey, you can't use the N-word.

Why the heII not?

'Cause you ain't got a pass.

What, you do?

HeII yes, I got a pass.

Let me guess-- you got
some African-American buddies?

Some brothers?

Look, I was assigned
as your training officer to train you

so you don't have
to Iearn the hard way.

I got 15 years in the cruiser.
You got five hours.

I'm trying to give you
the benefit of my experience.

Buddy, you can throw
yourseIf under a bus

to save one of these
fine African-Americans,

Puerto Ricans, lndians,
Asians, MusIims-- whatever.

Me, I'm gonna stay in the car
and I'm gonna Iive,

have dinner with my wife and kid,
bang my girIfriend

and coIIect my pension.

I couId care Iess
about these monkeys.

- Fuck.
- And understand--

these animaIs wiII eat you aIive
if you give 'em a chance.

Are we gonna have probIems, rookie?

Hey.

When we're in this cruiser,

you better have my back

and you better do exactIy
what I teII you. You got me?

Shit can get reaI crazy
out here reaIIy quick.

So when the time comes,

you better get down Iike I teII you.

AII I got is this game

And aII I got
is my soul

I'II give you aII I got
untiI it's gone...

Wait in the car, aII right?

'Cause aII I know
is just pain

Done Iost it aII
but remain

'Cause truth be toId,
a nigga know at the end of the day

You gotta Iose
before you couId gain

That's how you grow

Gotta move, gotta get it,
gotta hustle, man

And be an overachiever
when they don't understand

'Cause we got the upper hand
whenever they shuffIe

I bet I'II royaI fIush you...

What the fuck you think you doing,
seIIing drugs to kids?

- Come on, man!
- Fucking punk!

Forgot the ruIes of the bIock, huh?

Say it.
Say the ruIe.

- No candy for the kids.
- Mm-hmm.

- I shouId book your IittIe ass.
- Hey! Yo, hey!

What are you doing?
Come on!

Hey!

What the fuck do you

to your grandmother!

If I teII you to wait in the car,
then you--

you wait in the car. A'ight?

A'ight.

You're on the street now, MaIo.

I never Ieft the streets.

It's a pretty easy first day.

Don't get used to it.

Man.

Jonas, you know that I Iove you, right?

Yeah, Pop.
I Iove you too.

You're a good kid.

I Iike driving around with you, Pop.

Oh, I bet you do.

Jonas.

Yeah, I figured you'd be here today.

- So you remembered.
- How could l forget?

You haven't caIIed.

Can we taIk?

- About what?
- You don't think about me?

I do. AII the time.
You know that.

I'm not gonna wait on you forever.

StiII working at your father's diner?

Yes.

If you'd come around
more often, you'd know that.

He needs me there.
He doesn't trust anyone eIse.

- What about your brother?
- Angie-- the wannabe gangsta?

PIease, don't even
get me started on that one.

StiII trying to be a tough guy?

I just wanna be happy, Jonas.

I want you to be happy.

Why did you invite me
to your ceIebration at the bar?

It's compIicated. I--

I can't even expIain it.

Look, I gotta go to work, Cyn.

Jonas.

Do what you feeI you gotta do, Cyn.

Officer requesting backup,

You feel me?

And I don't need no pussy-ass cops

Hey, put the gun on the ground
and step away from it! Do it now! Now!

I'm Detective Lureu.
What is this?

- Trying to figure it out, Officer.
- I'm Morrison.

So we come around the corner,
these two come spilling out

of the bodega, arguing.

Out of nowhere, the big--
the bIack guy

takes a swing at the IittIe guy
with a knife in his hand.

LittIe guy puIIs a piece,

l didn't even see where the gun
came from, it happened so fast.

A'ight. I'm gonna take it

Put the gun down.
Put it down.

Put the gun down.

Hey hey! You next, Iet's go.

Officer Burke's got rank here,

He's Iooking at me
Iike he wants to eat me.

I want this monkey in my car,

You wanna die?
You wanna die?

- BiIIy, I think--
- Shut the fuck up!

You wanna die?

Tie your dog on the--
on the poIe over there.

I want you to turn around
and I want you to kneeI down

and interIock your fingers

Take the kid over here,

Let's go. On your knees.

On your knees!
Hands behind your head.

You're mine.
Get in the fucking cruiser.

Punk.

Of course, Lureu.
You know I aIways got you.

You Iucky that I showed up when I did,

You know that, right?

AII right, you owe me.

This your stop. Get out.

- You sure you don't party?
- Not with that shit.

Yeah weII,

TiII then, don't judge me

- sitting right next to me.
- I'm not judging you.

You wiII soon.

Just once I'd Iike to know
what it feels like

not to have a brown face
in the back back there.

Now your mama gotta hide her face every
time she go out on the street, huh?

Uncuff him, Officer.

Excuse me?

l said take the shackles
off the young boy's wrists.

And give this to him.
lt's his stuff.

Come on, man.

And Iook,
keep your head on you, okay?

- We're Ietting you off this time.
- Hey, come on.

It ain't aIways gonna be Iike this.

Wow.

I thought we were supposed
to keep cats Iike that off the streets.

- No.
- You know, I thought that--

No no, tell me,
what wouId you have done, Officer,

if you had six guns
pointed at your head

and a crazy-ass cracker
trying to take you in? Huh?

- Remember Abner Louima.
- Why did we let him go?

- l mean, he--
- No, he's gonna be better off

out here than he is inside that system.
Trust me on that.

But that's not
our decision to make, sir.

- No. Look, Iet me teII you something.
- You know, that's--

A few years inside that system

and he would've
been desperate enough

to pull that trigger
just not to go back inside.

Now this Iesson just ain't for him.

It's for you too.

Yes sir.

l'm getting money,
yeah, I'm getting money

You niggas 'bout a doIIar,

This is why I don't date cops.

They're too seIf-absorbed.

That's a piece of shit.

Huh? Ah!

But don't fuck

on the street--
that's most important.

You want a chance to move up?

No doubt. You know that.

Go here...

You mind if I bring my boys with me?

That's how we do it here.

You vouch for 'em, sure, it's okay.

Go ahead. Go go.

- We're the new crew.

- Whoa whoa whoa.

- Easy easy now.
- I wish you wouId.

Whoa.

We're here to coIIect Sarcone's money.

Sarcone.

- Where's Lureu?
- Like the man said,

- Just teII us where the money's at.

On the tabIe.

Yeah, we good.
Let's get out of here.

- Listen to your partner.
- Or what?

Or I'm gonna get reaIIy pissed.

You ain't scared, huh?

Are you some kind of tough guy?
You hiding something from Joe?

I ain't hiding nothing

and I've got too much
on Sarcone to worry about him.

So Iet me teII you this:

fuck you, fuck you

and fuck you!

Oh shit! You're gonna go
fucking down, you fuckers!

- You're gonna pay for that!
- Come on, grab his foot!

- Get me up, you motherfuckers!
- Are you scared yet, motherfucker?

I'm scared for you.

- You gonna fIy, motherfucker!
- l'm gonna drop your ass.

- You ain't taIking shit now.
- Get me up, you fuckers!

- You ain't taIking shit now, right?
- You motherfuckers!

Help me get him in.
Get your ass over here.

You gonna teII me why
you ain't scared of Sarcone,

or I'm gonna fIy your ass
out that window Iike a kite.

I'm more worried about Baez.

Who?

You work for Sarcone,
but you don't know who the reaI boss is.

His boss, my boss, your boss--

GabrieI Baez.

What you know about Sarcone--
times it by 10,

don't even come cIose to Baez.

- Sarcone got a handIer?
- Everyone's got a boss.

Baez has been importing product
into the city for 20 years.

He pays Joe to make sure the traffic
route is all nice and friendly.

Joe used to be the escort.

That's my job now.
I pay him on the back end.

I know spots
of cash that Sarcone--

- he doesn't even know about.
- Go check the other room.

- You keep taIking.
- A few years back

a Queen's ADA tried
to put the squeeze on Joe.

Even got an oId cop to rat on him.

It didn't stick.

He's stiII waIking the streets.

The aftermath--

everybody that was invoIved

- went to an earIy grave.
- You a cop?

No. You just don't get it.

You're his new trained dog.

He'II get you used
to the white powder.

And he'II use you just Iike
he has all his other dogs.

And you thought Joe was your friend.

Jackpot, baby.

This ain't the half of it.
Who does this beIong to?

TechnicaIIy, my boss.

lf he's skimming from Baez
and hiding it from Sarcone,

then that's none
of our business, MaIo.

Come on,
we did what we came to do.

Man, Iet's get out of here.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.
New deaI-- you're gonna teII me

where those cash spots is at,
you hear me?

Or l'm gonna tell Sarcone
about your new IittIe side hustIe,

and you aIready know
what he gonna do.

You work for me now.

Here's the money from SuIIy.

What's the worst thing
you ever did, Joe?

The worst thing I ever did
was trust the wrong man.

How do you know when
you trusting the wrong man?

You're questioning me?

Huh? You IittIe shit.

l always made my decision
with my head, not my heart.

I got to where I am in this worId
by taking advantage

of peopIe's trust,
and I'm not ashamed of that.

I have a question for you.
Are your boys IoyaI to you?

- AbsoIuteIy.
- Yeah?

I'm not asking you
to vouch for them.

l'm asking for you
to bet your baIIs, IiteraIIy.

- I understand. I do.
- Yeah, do you?

'Cause usuaIIy
it's the guy cIosest to your baIIs

who winds up kicking you in them.

I have a rat inside these waIIs.

That's the news straight
from One PoIice PIaza.

Someone in my confidence
is cheating on me.

Don't make me wrong to trust you.

I Iove you Iike a son,
but if you or anybody near you

doubIe-crosses me...

as Iong as I have breath in my Iungs,

I wiII find you and I wiII cook you.

- You don't have to worry about me.
- l'm not worried, kid.

You're confusing worry and concern.

Sometimes it's a woman who winds up
kicking you in the baIIs the hardest.

- Is that why you're not married?
- You're damn straight.

I don't trust no bitch,
neither shouId you,

especiaIIy not some bitch shaking
her ass for tips in a fucking bar.

- Understood.
- You gotta do what you gotta do, kid.

Use your head, aIways, and keep
your baIIs covered. Remember that.

- Am l clear?
- I hear you Ioud and cIear.

- Shots!
- You got it.

Yo, what's the word?
Are we in or what?

Sarcone'II get at me
when he's ready, man.

- Don't stress it.
- Yo, that thing SuIIy said

- about an ADA from Queens--
- Yeah?

--what are the chances
he was taIking about Vecchio?

- Who the fuck cares?
- Gimme two.

If it's true, Sarcone and Baez

got more to Iose by not bringing us on.

Am I right?

I'II taIk to Lydia tomorrow,
see what's up.

Yo, I seen this fIy Spanish girI. Whoa!

Yo, what's up with Cyn, man?

You taIk to her IateIy?
Now you know she Ioves you.

How Iong you gonna make her pay
for her family's bullshit?

Look, man,
Cyn's doing Cyn.

Me? I'm doing me.

Let's move.

Yeah, whatever.
But just-- you know, just in case.

Hey. How you doing?

- I'm good. How are you?
- l'm good.

You come here with these cIowns?

No, my girIfriend knows
one of the guys.

I just met them.
Is that okay?

Yo, do I know you?

Yo, I'm taIking to you.

- No, son, you don't know me.
- Wanna party?

- Ooh. A cop, huh?
- What the fuck?

Shit. His motherfucking badge
don't mean shit in here.

I think she Iiked it.

- Yo, who invited you here?
- Man, fuck you.

What?! Who the fuck you think
you're taIking to?

- Whoa.
- Coming in here with that badge,

thinking you running shit?

- l gotta go.
- You a punk, huh?

You scared? You nervous?

You nervous?!

- Oh shit!
- Pop off!

Why you puIIing the gun, white boy?

We aII got guns.
Pop off!

- You nervous?!
- You gonna shoot aII of us?

- You scared, white boy?
- You gonna shoot aII of us?

Get out of the way!
Get out of the way!

- PoIice! Get the fuck down!
- What did you do?

What the fuck?
Man, put this shit down. What the--

Stupid, man.
We gotta get outta here.

- Come on, man, get out of here.
- Yeah, fuck you!

- Let's go! Let's go! Come on!
- Fuck you!

- What do we do?
- What they gonna do?

They gonna--
they gonna caII the cops?

Hey, man,
he's outta controI, man.

It's aIways the same shit
with this dude.

Mix some up.

You really think
I wouIdn't have found out

about your boy shooting
two people at a party?

In front of witnesses? Huh?

- Huh?
- Answer the man.

Your fucking boy's an idiot.

He's a fucking idiot.
You understand that?

He ain't under
my protection Iike you.

He can get you fucked up.
He can fuck me up.

- He got excited. I'II caIm him down.
- He got excited?

He got excited?

l made some calls.
Last night never happened.

I Iike you, MaIo.
Up untiI now I trusted yourjudgment.

I know you want him around
because he's your friend,

but if I ever hear
of him fucking up again,

that's it.
It's over.

You understand?

- Let me hear you say it!
- Yes, l understand.

Let me teII you something right now--
you work for me!

OnIy me, not yourseIf!

You do what I say!

Snort that Iine.

Snort the fucking Iine!

The other one.

- You just don't get it.
- Your boy's a fucking idiot.

- You're his new trained dog.
- He's a fucking idiot.

That thing Sully said
about an ADA from Queens.

He'II get you used to the white powder.

He ain't under my protection.

What are the chances
he was taIking about Vecchio?

He can fuck you up.
He can fuck me up. I Iike you, MaIo.

Up tiII now, I trusted yourjudgment.
You work for me!

OnIy me!
Let me hear you say it.

Get outta here.

This fucking kid.

Hey.

I knew you'd caII eventuaIIy.

You got your wish.

I appreciate everything
you did for me, Lydia,

but I caIIed because I needed
to taIk to you about your husband.

What happened to him?

How'd he die?

Kenneth was very ambitious.

He was Iooking for something big,

something that would
make him a IegaI rock star.

Then he'd be DA or mayor

or God knows what. Governor?

- So what happened?
- He got what he wanted.

He was approached by a DEA agent

who wanted heIp in

buiIding a case against
corrupt New York City cops.

Kenneth jumped at the chance.

So how'd he die?

Not weII.

They caIIed it a no-note suicide.

Not Ieaving a note
for me I understand, but...

nothing for his son,
his daughter?

No, that's not Kenneth.

I met Agent Robert Jude
at Kenneth's wake.

He showed me what Kenneth kept
Iocked away in his office--

a dossier

on one Captain Joseph Sarcone.

Audio, video surveiIIance,

notebooks with names,
dates, locations.

Basically, he was
a drug deaIer in a uniform.

And he had two partners.

Baby, don't be naive.

My husband found
your father's weak spot.

He convinced him
that you were in danger.

He got him to taIk on record about

Sarcone and all the shit
they'd been invoIved in.

That's why my husband
got you into the academy.

He feIt guiIty.

GuiIty for what?

How do you think your father died?

How do you think Kenneth died?

Sarcone's not your friend.

Sarcone's been Iike a father to me.

Yeah? How Iong is that gonna Iast?

My name is DanieI MaIdonado.

I'm a detective for the New York City
Police Department.

And the reason
you've come to us here today?

My partners
Dennis Lureu and Joe Sarcone,

and myseIf,

work for the drug carteI boss
GabrieI Baez.

WhiIe on duty,
we transported cocaine, marijuana

and worked as bodyguards
and hired guns

for GabrieI Baez
for the past seven years.

And now I'm afraid
for the Iife of my wife and my son.

- l love you, Pop.
- I Iove you too, Jonas.

If Sarcone found out I was
talking to ADA Vecchio,

trying to buiId a case against him,
they'd fucking kiII me.

Climb in the back.
CIimb in the back and hide on the fIoor.

Come on.
And keep quiet. Not a peep.

- Oh yo, man. It's you guys.
- Get out of the car.

Come on, l'm just picking up
a IittIe sock money. It's nothing.

Don't force my hand here.

Danny-- you crossed the Iine, Danny.

Now get the fuck out of the car.

Your dad and me were partners.

I Iove you Iike a son.

If this is about the money,
here, take a piece.

It's not about the money, Danny.

lf it ain't about the dough,
then what the heII is it about?

It's about IoyaIty.

You son of a bitch.
You son of a bitch.

Why? Wait! Wait a minute!

Pop, how can I get you out of there?

I'm fine.

Everything's gonna be okay.

Don't worry about me.
Now get out of the car.

- No, Pop. No. I'm not Ieaving you!
- Get away from here!

Do it now!
Jonas, do what I teII you, son!

So I want this recorded

in case something happens to me.

Thank you, Karen.
Send him in.

Have a seat.

DanieI MaIdonado's son
finaIIy reaches out.

There's no such thing
as coincidence, right?

Your phone number was in the fiIe

Lydia Vecchio gave me.

That's right.

AII those pictures,

my father's confession--

none of that was enough
to put Sarcone away?

I want Sarcone more than anyone.

Sometimes in my business,
you do what you can...

- hope for the best.
- That's bullshit.

Something's telling me there's
a IittIe more than hope invoIved here.

Your father was trying
to do the right thing.

So why are you here,
Officer Maldonado?

TeII me pIainIy.

I wanna serve Sarcone
to you on a pIatter.

Aha.

I just need to know how to do it.

- Who is it?
- It's Jonas.

Get to the point, Jonas.

What do you reaIIy want for us?

- What I want?
- Yeah.

Why are you here, Jonas?

Huh?

I mean, am I reaIIy what you want?

Come here.

Don't be Iike that.

I want you, Cyn.

It's aIways been you.

TeII me.

Jonas, you never teII me
that you love me.

I need to hear you say it.

Say it.

You're a piece of shit.

- Come here.
- Get out of my house.

- Come here.
- Don't you fucking touch me.

Get out of my house.

Yeah

You Iooking at me
then you see what you see

I'm Iike, hey, oh yeah

And in my city
I'II be running with buIIs

I'm Iike, hey, oh yeah

You can watch it
from the sideIine, oh

SideIine, oh, sideIine

PeopIe watching from the sideIine

SideIine, hey

Hey, nigga, you know I'II be good...

Morning, baby.

You want some coffee?

Coffee?

What? What's up?

I just don't trust many peopIe.

I got a Iot going on right now.

a lotta things
I gotta get done, that's aII.

A.D., what's up?
What you got for me?

I shook SuIIy down. I found out

that Baez Iaunders money
at the Queens Raceway.

Yo, you ain't gonna beIieve this.

You know Cyn's brother Angie?
He's running the pIace.

Find Lucas and wait
for my caII, aII right?

- A'ight, I'm on it.
- A'ight.

- Hey.
- Lureu.

- What's going on?
- I got something.

Yeah, it's major.

No, Sarcone don't know nothing about it.

You trust me, don't you?

I'II pick you up in 10.

- Good luck.
- Thank you.

- Hey.
- How you doing?

I've been reaIIy Iucky today
if you need any suggestions.

Well, l'm actually here

I'm gonna need you to buzz us
into that back door.

Let me caII upstairs about that.

Look, if you make that phone caII,

you might as weII be an accompIice
to everything that goes on here.

Yo, they don't pay me enough for this.

Go around that counter

- and I'm gonna buzz you in.
- AII right

Brother, stay the fuck down.

- Where you going? Where you going?
- Fuck.

Stay there or I'II kick you
in your fucking head.

ChiII. Yeah yeah.

What are you doing with these guys?
EspeciaIIy this asshoIe right here?

- Yo, keep fucking with me, oId man.
- You wanna try me?

I can make you vanish.
Poof! You'II be gone.

Just say one more
fucking thing, aII right?

Yo, my deaI, my crew.
Fuck that.

This isn't good, kid.
This isn't good.

You wanna test Joe?
l can't save you.

- before I see you again, Angie.
- Wait, you know this guy?

- Yeah, l know him.
- Why you didn't teII me you know

- My high schooI sweetheart--

this is her brother right here--
Angelo. Angie the Greek.

He's the one got us started in the game,
hustling a corner, slinging.

- Right, Angie?
- This is the thanks I get

- for starting you out?
- Found out his sister feII for me,

beat her within inches of her Iife.
Remember that, Angie?

- A reaI cIass act.
- Go to heII, MaIo.

You think I forgot about that autograph

you signed on my forehead
with that basebaII bat? Huh?

You know who
this pIace beIongs to?

GabrieI Baez.

You ever hear of him?

This is GabrieI Baez's pIace?

You know who GabrieI Baez is?

We work with this guy, for God's sake.

A'ight, a'ight, Iook,

Iet's-- Iet's just get outta here.

- Don't touch a fucking thing.
- Easy easy.

- Whoa whoa whoa.
- You gonna Iet 'em put guns in my face?

You gonna put a gun
in my fucking face?

You better Iisten to him, MaIo,

'cause when Baez finds you,
he's gonna watch me

fist you with this hand
right before he kiIIs you.

Are you high?

Are you high?
You wanna make a move on Joe?

After Joe's finished with you,

there ain't gonna be nothing Ieft
for Baez to hurt.

- Do you hear me, kid?
- You're a cop?

That's funny.

Come on, MaIo. There's enough money
to go around for aII of us, man.

- You ain't gotta do this.
- Shut the fuck up.

- You stiII mad? That was years ago.
- Now look at you.

- For Christ's sake, do something!
- Don't do it.

- Shoot that pig!
- We ain't here for that, man!

Do it!

- Shit!
- It's a big mistake, kid.

What the fuck is wrong with you?
What are you thinking about?

Yeah!

What the fuck, man?

Get some rope or something.
Tie him up.

- Take aII that shit.
- Oh shit, man.

Adios, oId friend.

I don't know, man.

- You sure about this, MaIo?
- Of course l'm sure.

- You got something you wanna say?
- Yo, l don't give a fuck.

Come on, Iet's go.

We are exactIy where
we're supposed to be, my friends.

The sky's the Iimit, right?

I don't think so anymore.

Hey, remember when we were kids

and we used to pIay cops
and robbers in the rain?

Yeah, you never wanted
to be the cop.

I do now.

For aII the wrong reasons.

Yo, what the fuck is
that supposed to mean?

I don't wanna do this anymore.

What, you ain't down for us no more?

No, I'm not down for this shit anymore.

- Oh yeah? Yeah?
- Yeah, you heard me.

- You got a probIem with that?
- Shut up, man.

Both of you just shut
the heII up, aII right?

ChiII the heII out, man.

Look, if you want out,
A.D., you can go.

It ain't gonna change nothing.

Badges ain't change us.
We're still us.

You know, badge or no badge,
this is buIIshit.

Just as bad as Sarcone is, MaIo.

And the crazy thing is you Iike it.

And this asshoIe over here wants
to grow up to be just Iike you

if you don't get us aII kiIIed first.

That's how you feeI?

I'm done, man.

- l'm out.
- Was it reaIIy that bad?

You think I'd Ieave if it wasn't?

Don't Iisten to that pussy.

You got it all under control
Iike you aIways do. Right, my dude?

Shut up, Lucas.

You've been teIIing me what to do
since we was little kids.

I'm tired of it.

What do you think she'd do
if she knows you kiIIed Angie?

You think Cyn wouId forgive you
for killing her brother?

And what about Sarcone?

What do you think he'd do he knows
you're stabbing him in the back?

Don't you pIay aII high
and mighty with me, bitch.

'Cause you can't fuck with me,

but I can fuck with you though.

You remember that.

GabrieI.

How does this happen?
CompIeteIy unacceptabIe.

Yeah yeah, I know,
l know, l know.

- You need to fix this now.
- Yeah, don't worry. I got it.

How couId the racetrack get hit?

- What am I paying you for?
- Yeah, l got it.

- You need to make this right.
- I got it.

- You have two days to find my money.
- Okay okay.

It's Lureu.
At the beep, say it.

- I'm out.
- Oh yeah.

- Hey.
- Where the fuck are you?

Something very messy just went down.

You sound worried, Joe.

- Have you seen your partner IateIy?
- No, why?

I'm in a spot
where I can get touched reaI bad.

An associate just got jacked
for nine digits

and that just don't happen
without me knowing about it.

I don't know what the fuck is going on.

Lureu's not picking up his phone

and l can't find him
and I don't know what to think now.

Sounds Iike you know
who the rat is, Joe.

- How much did he steaI?
- I can't cover it.

- And I didn't say it was Lureu.
- But you think it is.

- Want me go find him?
- Nah.

lf he don't wanna be found, he's got a
miIIion pIaces to Iay up and stay high.

- That's what I'm worried about.
- Want me hit the streets,

- make some things happen?
- No, what l want you to do

is l want you to meet
my friend GabrieI Baez,

and I want you to caIm him down.

Okay, whatever you want, Joe.

Fuck Lureu.
I got you, right?

That's right.
You can aIways trust me.

Okay.

My name's Jonas MaIdonado, MaIo.

Are you wearing a wire,
Mr. Maldonado?

- No sir.
- Joe speaks very highIy of you.

Thank you, sir.

It is disrespectfuI of him
to send a messenger in his pIace.

Don't you agree, Mr. MaIdonado?

Speak, messenger.

You think Joe sent me here
to pacify you,

but he sent me here to Iie to you.

Where is Joe, Mr. MaIdonado?

Somewhere counting your money.

Please do choose
your next words very carefuIIy.

ExpIain.

None of what
went down was my idea.

Are you about to admit
to steaIing from me?

I was there, yes,

but it's Sarcone that's screwing you.

He's trying to use me to do it

and I don't wanna be in the middIe
when you screw him back.

But you're stiII in the bed,

aren't you, Mr. MaIdonado?

Now where is my property?

Sarcone has it, but I can get it back.

- All of it.
- Why do you betray your patrón?

These are the transcripts
from the DEA's wiretaps

inside Sarcone's bar.

He's over a barreI.

He'II give everyone up
to save his own ass.

AII they reaIIy want is you.

Robbing you is just his way

of fucking you a IittIe deeper
before he hands you over.

So are we in business?

What do you want, Mr. MaIdonado?

I want Sarcone's seat at your tabIe.

First my property.

Half the money
and the product is with Lureu.

Here's an address, key to a car--

haIf your stuff is in it.

Sarcone has the other haIf.

I'II bring him out in the open so
you can deaI with him how you see fit.

I'm reaIIy resourcefuI, Mr. Baez.

You're dismissed.

Stay cIose, man.

- Motherfuckers!
- You stay down!

You drive.

- Joe.
- Did you find him?

No, I ain't find him,
but I found haIf the money at his pIace.

- It Iook Iike he did it.
- Ahh.

- Baez is gonna be pissed.
- I know, I know,

but reIax, man.
Baez don't know who jacked him.

He should be happy
you found haIf his stuff.

Maybe ask for a finder's fee.

- Remember who's doing who a favor.
- A'ight.

- HeIIo, this is Jude.
- Hello.

Agent Jude, I think aII the pieces
are falling in place.

I just need a few more things.

You know, I understand you wanting
to avenge your father's death and aII,

but what happens after that, huh?

I mean, you ever actuaIIy thought
about respecting the badge?

Perhaps aiming some
of that angst in the right direction?

No, I ain't thought about that IateIy.

So what do you need?

Kill me?
You wanna kiII me?

You ain't got the baIIs to face me

man to man! Huh?

Oh, so you're gonna take me out?

It's Iike that?

WeII, come on then! Come on!

Piece of shit.

- Is that the rest of my property?
- It's right there, sir.

Like you predicted, Joe did caII--

add insuIt to injury.

You're cIever, Mr. MaIdonado.

You satisfied?

Remind me-- what is my incentive

for not shooting you
or kiIIing you right now?

l'm clever.
You just said it.

Joe underestimated you.
I wiII not.

I've proven my IoyaIty to you.

Not yet,

but soon you wiII.

Oh shit.
What the fuck is going on here?

Hup! Take it easy.

What is this?

It's a test.

- Who's the girl?
- I know that your friend is a IiabiIity

that Joe tolerates just
to keep you cIose to him.

I reaIIy don't know why.

I don't deaI with IiabiIities.

UnfortunateIy,

the girI was with your friend
when we picked him up.

She's an innocent bystander.

Now you're deaIing with me,
Mr. MaIdonado.

You're gonna shoot one of them

or I'II kiII them both.

You choose, Mr. MaIdonado.

- Hey.
- AII right, Iet's start it. Let's go.

- Everybody in Iine.
- Nice.

Here we go.

Come on, you IittIe sissies.
Let's go. Move it!

What-- what's up, man?

Guys, come on!
Let's move move!

It's good what you're doing, man.

Hut hut! Hey hey, hoId on.

You know, my TO was right.

I've Iearned a Iot about myseIf.

You couId too.

32, grip the baII. Set. Hut hut!

There you go. There you go.

I gotta go back to the kids, man.

You be good.

You Iook Iike shit.

Sarcone is in the car.

Look sharp. This is it, foIks.

StiII no word from Lureu?

Yeah.
You know why I trust you, kid?

- 'Cause you know I won't fuck you over?
- Yeah.

When's the Iast time you seen Baez?

Not Iong enough.

I gotta see that prick tonight.

As Iong as that money
come through nice

- twice a month, right?
- It takes a certain type of individuaI

to do what we do, to have the baIIs
to be the type of men we are.

You gotta want it-- aII of it.

Good guys, bad guys--
that's all bullshit

when it comes down to it.
It's about money, fear and respect.

Like you, I aIways wanted aII three.

Iike your father did when--
when we started out.

Do not Iet them out of your sight.

Copy that.

TeII me the story
about that pIane heist.

- l love that story.
- What, how me and your dad started?

- Attaboy.
- Me and your father used to pick up

Baez's muIes at JFK cargo
and escort 'em through the city.

We'd babysit through
distribution, coIIection

around the city,
then we'd escort 'em back to JFK.

Easy-peasy, 10 Gs easy.

- Nice.
- Yeah, 10 Gs

before skimming off the top of cargo.

That's how I buiIt my empire,
steaIing dope from that--

you know, dope.

- So when did it go bad?
- Between me and Baez?

No, between you and my father.

I toId you everything
you need to know, kid.

TeII me what you think I don't know.

You know...

when it came down to it,

your father was afraid
to make the tough decisions,

so he made the wrong ones.

Shake the tree, MaIo.
Come on.

I've aIways done right by you, kid.

- Like a father to me.
- Like a father.

And I wouIdn't offer you my hand

if I thought you were gonna bite it.

I just wanna know the truth.

Attaboy.

I never ever,

not for one instant, thought your father
would or could rat us out,

but the facts are what they are.
He made a deaI with an ADA.

We're taIking serious jaiI time
for everybody, including me.

Everybody was gonna be shamed
and disgraced in the papers,

the whoIe nine yards.

And the word came down
on Monday morning. It had to get done.

Why you?

Because I-- I was his partner.

It was a test of my IoyaIty.

Was it them or was it him?

What wouId you do?

It was a Wednesday.

We followed him
to RooseveIt IsIand and--

AII units, stand ready.

And he was puIIed over
by a patroI car, of aII things.

We waited for them to Ieave
and then we went over.

I made him get out. I...

Your father was a--

your father was a...

he was a rat.

Take him
when he exits the car.

WouId you do it again?

Your father was afraid
to make the tough decisions.

Men Iike us are buiIt to make
those kinds of decisions.

That's who we are.
Can you do that?

Can you make those tough decisions?

I aIready have.

Take him. Go. Go go!

I'm gonna go.
Get your fucking hands off me.

Man down.
Where'd that shot come from?

Check the rooftops now!

Where'd that shot come from?

It's gotta be Baez! God damn it!

Everybody out there right now!

Get up on those rooftops, aII units!

Shut down everything!
l don't want anybody

getting out of this area,
not in a five-bIock radius!

- I want everybody to move now!
- Fall back. l'm going in.

What the heII happened?

I need a car on that end.
I need a car on this end.

Thanks for not
giving up on me, Cyn.

- You aIways get what you want?
- l did my part.

Oh, I know what you did
and I know what you're pIanning.

With my heIp, you got Baez

to cIear Sarcone out of the picture

and now you get to take
Sarcone's pIace at Baez's tabIe.

That's very cIever.

Why don't you try

working for the good guys for a change?

I know you got it in you.

You think you know me.

I'm not a good guy.

AII right, part-time then.

Part-time good guy, Iike a--

a freeIancer.

FreeIancer, huh?

If you're gonna wear the badge,

take the responsibility
that goes with it, huh?

Who knows? You might even find
a IittIe seIf-respect too.

Agent Jude,
this is an oId friend of mine.

- HeIIo.
- Hi.

Agent Jude works for the DEA.

He's my new boss.

- Nice to have met you.
- Likewise.

I'II be going undercover.

What does that mean for us?

Look...

this is our time, Cyn.

Trust me.

Jonas.

I Iove you, Cyn.

Yeah!

Hit 'em with the sawed-off,
