All language subtitles for The SHIELD - S03 E11 - Strays (720p - BluRay)

Previously on The Shield.

We killed a cop.

Get over it.
Don't bring it up again.

Mrs. Faulks, we have a warrant.

William Faulks? You're under arrest.
JOANNA: What are you doing?

For the rapes of Diana Peabo,
Isabel Nelson and Layla Gist.

Rapes?

Will gave you
figurines as gifts.

They were keepsakes
stolen from his victims.

That is a sick lie.

You lied to me!

Joanna. Stop it. Calm down.

I suppose you've got a key to
one of those rooms in there.

We've been dancing around each
other for a couple of years,

just wondering what would
happen if we ran out of excuses.

This is Hunter, my boyfriend.

HUNTER: Tell him.

What happened today
was a mistake.

It can't happen again.

Called your mom in lndio, she told me
about the $7000 care package you sent.

When it comes to money
you can't trust her.

I know who took our cash
from the storage locker.

It was Mara. We can trust her.

'Cause you say so?

Mara's not the problem.
The mom is.

They don't get on to her,
they can't get back to us.

VIC: Here's our enforcer.
Right on time.

SHANE: Lem's snitch
wasn't bullshitting us.

We wait until the
money changes hands?

Or until he hits him. Let's go.

Strike Team's back in
business, asshole.

Where is he?!
LEM: Uh, in the back.

He's going out the back.

I got him. Get the car!

[TIRES SQUEAL]

VIC [QUIETLY]:
He's in the house.

[DOGS BARKING]

Hey! Hands up.

Hands in the air.
Hands in the air.

On the ground! On the ground!

Hey, I'm a cop!

Shots!

VIC: Don't move!

Shit, man, are you all right?

Shit!

Bitch.

Get up.

I didn't know he was a cop.
He said it too late.

Well,
here's so you won't forget.

[SCREAMS]

You like taking shots
atcops, huh?

What do I look like
now, you prick?!

MAN: You look like a cop!

VIC: That's good.

That's good.

That's good!

Great news.

Our cuddler-rapist
wants to talk.

I thought he was refusing
to be interviewed.

Apparently,
a week and a half in solitary

made him very lonely.

I sent him a note
with the DNA evidence

tying him to two of the bodies.

He knows the jig is up,
he probably wants to brag.

ACEVEDA: Good.
What about the wife?

CLAUDETTE: She still won't talk.

We don't know what she knew.

Oh, she seems harmless.

We'll find out
for sure tomorrow.

We rarely talk to someone
who's taken a shot at us.

Usually, it's their next of kin.

Look, man, I swear I didn't
know you guys was cops.

Look, I see white boys
busting in my house,

my instincts kick in.

What's your name, shithead?

Trick.

VIC: Heard about someone
shaking down store owners,

we catch this guy
handing out a beat-down.

Why's he running to your house?

He working for you?

No, I'm just an everyday stiff.

Macy's open up a drug
prescription department?

Check this shit out, man.

[CHUCKLES]

Percocet, Oxy, Valium.

SHANE: Some jackrabbit
led us to Dr. Feelgood.

What'd you run here for, Luddy?

VIC: Ah, so you two are
on a first-name basis.

Vic, car's pulling up.

VIC: Who is it?

Let's get out of here.
Finish it.

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

It's gotta be my runner
picking up that delivery.

This just keeps getting
better and better.

I'm gonna open the door.

Play it cool. You try to jet,
I'm gonna sic him on you.

It's one of my mules.

Ronnie.

VIC: This mule may be
strapped, so be careful.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Freeze!

[TIT]

Girl next door says you've
got quite the racket going.

Dealing illegal pharmaceuticals
on top of trying to kill me?

You can get the bends going
down in shit that deep.

Man, I'd never shoot a cop.
It was an accident. I didn't...

You got about 50 years
coming to figure it out!

All right, look, look,
I'll make it up to you, okay?

I'll give you everything.

Yo, look, look,
I ain't the one distributing.

It's my boss, Lewis.

Lewis Sperling, man.
He owns AGC.

The custom car outfit?

Yeah. He runs the scrips.

I just recruit the
runners for him.

Yeah, from where? The PTA?

No one ever got pulled
over for driving

while being a soccer
mom, you know?

So what? Dealing to the 'burbs
doesn't get you time off

on attempted cop killing.

Dealing is a small thing

that helps with his big
thing, man, washing money.

Who's got the dirty laundry?

Bangers, gambling outfits,

captains of industry,
man, who knows?

Look, Lewis takes your dirty
cash, puts it into AGC,

calls you a silent partner

and cuts you a share
of the profits.

Hey, look, you make sure a DA

don't come after me
for a cop shooting,

I'll get you in.

Sounds interesting.

This asshole tried to kill me.

He didn't know
that we were cops.

You got him so scared,
we're getting a tip

we'd never get another way.

I won't work with him.

Aren't you supposed to be
riding shotgun with Mara's mom,

prepping her for
the big phone call?

Yeah.

Then you focus on that.

Make sure it goes right.

What's the problem?

Do you want me to lose
my realtor's license?

I don't like this.

Lying to the U.S. government

with the Homeland Securities and all.
Uh-uh.

Ma, this is important.

If they find out I failed
to report this bonus,

I could be in trouble.

How serious?

If there's one thing the
government does right,

it's collect taxes.

I hate asking you to do
this, we both do,

but it'll cost us,
kill our careers.

Even if we had to split
the bonus with you.

How much is that? Afew grand?

Yeah. Yeah, three or four.

[SIGHS]

I'll do it for Mara.

Mrs. Faulks?

You're bringing in my
husband, right?

He agreed to make a statement.

I need to talk to him.

That's not possible.

Why not?

You can arrange to visit
him at county jail.

You don't think I've tried?

He won't see me.
He won't talk to me.

You have an innocent and
a scared man in prison.

His DNA matched
semen recovered...

I've heard all about the
DNA labs in Los Angeles,

and that means nothing.

If you'd be interviewed... Why?

So you can frame
me like my husband?

So I can clear you
of any involvement.

In rapes and murders?

When's a time for us to speak?

I need to talk to him first.

I need to talk to you.

Well, I already said no.

Then there's not much
reason for you to be here.

Buzz me.

Give me some money.
I know you got some.

Pasty ass bitch-ass.

I be ruling with an iron rod

as the vessels of a potter
shall be broken to shards.

WOMAN: Take it.

DANNY: Hey! Drop the pipe.

Where's the black man's jusfice?

JULIEN: Turn around.
Turn around.

Put your hands behind your head.
Let's go.

Verily I say unto you,
be holy for I am holy.

Ain't no half-stepping.

Ain't no half-stepping.

Take a bath lately?

Let's go.

I see you been blinking at me.
Blink, blink, blink.

This will be recorded in writing

and turned over
to a directorate.

And then we'll see
who's laughing.

Get in.

Investors in the AGC
custom car outfit.

Colén runs the Farmtown Mijos.

Del Rubio owns a piece
of the racetrack.

AGC's the clearing house
for all their dirty profits?

Them and who knows
what other guys?

Their drug-running helps
him clean the cash.

Without hard evidence,

we can't target people
for owning a business.

If we can sting
this Lewis Sperling

on a drug distribution,

we'll get him to roll
on everybody else.

You net the octopus,

follow the tentacles,
get the ink.

What do you need?

Well, Lewis interviews
all the mules personally

and since we lost
the Decoy Squad,

I'm gonna need a
female to meet him.

I was thinking Sofer.

Danny? She's never gone under.

She can fit the bill.

And if this Trick
doesn't pop up soon,

Lewis is gonna get suspicious.

I don't like cutting a
deal with some prick.

Me either.

But if this breaks right,

it'll be the biggest case
you and me will ever see.

It'll set crime in
Farmington back 20 years-.

Okay. Send her in.

Let me tell you
something, black.

The only difference
between you and me

is I was baptized
in dirty water.

DANNY: Priors for vagrancy.
In and out of psych wards.

We should turn him over
to MEU for evaluation.

They're blinking at me.
The son of man has eyes of fire.

When do I see the judge?

Be patient.

He is. A mental patient.

Just send him downtown.
He's their problem, not ours.

Busting Cardboard Willies, huh?

That's always fun.
That's the job.

This guy smells like dirty ass.

[CHUCKLES]

I had something a little
more sexy in mind for you,

but, uh, what did you
do to piss off Aceveda?

What do you mean?

Well,
I need a female undercover,

I thought you'd be
perfect, but...

But what?

I had to twist his arm.

You better make me look good.

Thanks. Well, wait a minute.

What's the gig?

AGC car company is
doing a bunch of scams.

We need you to go after the
owner as Harriet Homemaker.

All right, I took Home Ec.

Let me know when I
can ditch the uniform.

I sure will.

Vic.

Hi. Hi.

One of your puppies make a bust?

Yeah, Koto.

Found five pounds of pot in
a locker at Farmington South.

Smoking in the boys' room.

How are you doing?

Ups and downs.

I've wanted to see
you, but Hunter's...

Don't have to explain.

Always had issues
with depression.

But lately, he's been talking

about killing himself
if I ever leave.

Are you safe there?

Oh, yeah. He'd never... Yeah.

I wanna see you though.

Sooner or later,
this guy's gonna need a clean break.

I can't do that right now.

But I don't wanna wait either.

You name the place.

Will?

Will. Will!

Why won't you talk to me?

DUTCH: Upstairs.
Interrogation Room 2.

Will.

Will. Will.

Goddamn it, look at me!

Will, you didn't do this.

Will, let me help you.

I can help you.

I have one condition
before we start.

You don't get conditions.

I want a grilled
cheese on sourdough.

Afew strips of bacon on the
side, not on the sandwich.

Some fries and a Pepsi.

Okay. Thanks.

I've never seen
Joanna that upset.

She can't understand why you won't
take her phone calls or see her.

This doesn't need to touch
her any more than it has to.

If she's involved,
you can't protect her forever.

You think she's involved?

I don't know what to think.

She won't talk to us
until she talks to you.

Bring her up here.
I'll get her to cooperate.

Then you and I don't
have to worry about it.

Matthew bit another
classmate this morning.

Another one? When...

I-| was gonna tell you.

Is the other child okay?

He broke the skin.
He required tetanus shots.

The last couple of weeks,
he's been a serious problem.

It's starting to influence
the other students.

That's about the time we
lost his in-house therapist.

We're still looking for
a replacement for him.

WOMAN: We've decided to
increase his one-on-one,

then re-evaluate whether
to bring him back in.

You're isolating him?

For the safety of
the other children.

How will he learn to socialize

if you won't let
him near others?

CORRINE: Maybe
one-on-one's gonna help.

We're paying 'em 25 grand a year

so he won't get stuck in a
public school broom closet.

WOMAN: We'll continue to work
with Matthew as best we can.

If he injures another child,

we'll have to ask you
to find another school.

Please don't do that.

What school is gonna
take an autistic kid

that you've branded
as being violent?

Bring back Owen.

He took a job in Phoenix.

We had a fight.

I couldn't bring him back
now even if I wanted to

and there's a waiting
list at the service

for qualified therapists.

I'll come by tonight,
talk to Matt about the biting.

I'll set him straight.

I'd like to talk to him alone.

I'm sorry, I can't allow that.

Why not? It's against policy.

Change the goddamn policy, then.

WILL: Stop it.
This won't take that long.

Did you tell them
you didn't do this?

I hate that you got
dragged into it.

It's all right- It's
just a mistake-.

We have to figure out
how to get you back home.

Any questions he asks, answer.

You're not involved.
Tell the truth.

Neither one of us is involved.

I did it, J0.

I raped those women.
I killed them.

I brought you things
from their houses.

They making you say that?

Joanna, I did it.

No.

Best case scenario is

I'm going to prison for
the rest of my life,

so you need to
move on with yours.

We're never gonna see each
other again after today.

Do you understand?

I won't ever agree to see you.

People are staring
at me like I...

The school has told
me not to show up

until this is all settled.

There's cameras,

there's helicopters
flying over our house.

People are throwing
trash on our lawn.

What do I do, Will?
What am I supposed to...?

She needs to leave now.

JOANNA: My mother said I was a bad wife.
Was I a bad wife?

Take her or I won't talk.

Mrs. Faulks...

Tell me. Was I supposed to know?

Was I supposed to know this?
That you were...

DUTCH: All right, come on.
Let's go.

Look, no gun, no wire.

We'll be out front,

but basically,
you're on your own.

What's going on?

Danny's interviewing with Lewis.

You're kidding me.

You and Lem back her up.
We'll be with Knucklehead.

Always thought when I went
undercover, I'd be a hooker.

Don't lose that dream.

Ronnie,
hook up Danny with a fake ID.

Toss Shane's buddy in
the cage for safekeeping.

RONNIE: Get up.

A case this big is good for us
in a hundred different ways.

LEM: How'd it go
with Mara's mom?

Okay, I think.

The feds want her to stop in
when she gets back to lndio.

I'm gone a couple hours,

suddenly we're in bed
with a cop killer?

VIC: Aceveda signed off on it.

Long as you and
Aceveda are cool.

What are you pouting for?

He took a shot at me
and no one gives a shit!

LEM: He's gonna do
time for that...

Not enough!

What are we doing to prep
Mara's mom for her face-to-face?

Maybe next raid I'll
catch that bullet.

You won't have to worry about a connection
between you and her. You can just...

Just lay it all at my door.

LEM: Man...

[DOOR SLAMS]

DUTCH: You're under arrest for
three murders and seven rapes.

WILL: I'm guilty of
all those crimes.

Are there, uh, any other crimes

that you'd like to
confess to at this time?

No. I just did the three
murders and the seven rapes.

DUTCH: What about your wife?

How could Joanna not
know what you were doing?

I was good. She didn't.

You were out all day
scoping your victims,

out all night raping them.

She ever wonder where you were?

I told her I was working.
Or writing.

She never called
to check up on you?

She never had reason to.

She didn't see that side of me.

You were, uh,
married for eight years.

She didn't want to see it.

Being married
doesn't mean you know

what's in a person's heart.

You married? No.

Ever? Or anymore?

Anymore.

You leave her or she leave you?

When you were married to her,
did you know what she wanted?

What was really
in her heart then?

Or did you only find out
later, when she was gone?

We're deaf and blind here.

Be ready for anything.

LEM: Yeah, copy.

What was that back
in the clubhouse?

Just 'cause we're on the team

doesn't mean we
can't be a problem.

If there's one thing Vic's good
at, it's solving problems.

Dude, Vic's never gonna
kick you off the team.

If Vic ever thought me or
Mara were becoming a problem,

you'd let me know, wouldn't you?

TRICK: Regular customer,
strictly recreational.

Got some smarts. You hit it?

No, it's too white.

It's all pink, nigga.

Yo, give me your license.

Got any kids? No.

Buy a car seat on your own dime.
I don't supply start-up costs.

Spill something on it.

Some crumbs, couple of toys.

Kids are messy.

You take a nice
picture, Danielle.

Thanks.

I'll hold onto this.

Make sure you're the
real Danielle Spencer.

Come back when
you're fitted out.

All right.

What's the status
of that homeless guy

that you and Danny brought in?

Tried sending him to county
on a 51/50 for observation.

No beds.

You called around?

Call around where?

Private facilities.

There's that shelter
on Bonnie Brae.

You know if he's
in the military?

He could go to Veteran's.

I'll check.

Throwing that guy to the
gladiators in the city lockup

ought to be the last
resort, don't you think?

I said I'd check.

He's indicated to me
you're not involved.

You're cleared.

I'm cleared?

You should go home.

Oh, because I'm innocent?

People think I'm guilty
of living with him

and not telling them
he was a monster.

You're not guilty.

How does a wife not know?

How does she live with somebody

and love him and not know...?

Ask him that.

Ask him where my life goes now

and then tell me
what his answer is.

LEWIS: You got the directions.

Give the bag to Weston,
wait on the porch,

he'll give you something.

Okay. Five miles
over the speed limit.

No more, no less.
Get popped, you own it.

It gets back to me,

I'll make sure you
never have kids.

You guys follow,
make sure the drop goes smooth.

Hey! Shit.

GO, go:

VIC: Go, go.

Stay put, asshole.

You okay? Yeah.

DANNY: God. You okay?

Goddamn it, he got the drugs.

You sure you're all right?

Yeah,
I didn't wanna blow my cover.

Vic.

Oh, Shit!

SHANE: Goddamn it. Goddamn it!

Cheap piece of shit.

VIC: No sign?

SHANE: Glad we partnered
up with this asshole.

If I don't deliver,
we can't sting Lewis.

Aceveda's head's gonna explode.

VIC: We gotta make this right.

You want your first
gig to go south

before it got off the ground?

Look, I'll go back,
make it right with Lewis.

Tell him what happened.

LEM: Trick already
phoned you in.

Lem's right. No way.

He's only been
running five minutes.

He'll be running for 20 more
before he makes a phone call-.

I gotta go back in now.

HEY-

Okay,
I'm giving you three minutes,

then we'll come and get you.

LEWIS: So some nigga just walks
up to you and grabs my shit?

I didn't know what to do...

What you do is not hand it
over, you stupid ho.

The guy had a gun.

Like this?

Huh?

[COCKS GUN]

IS that what he did?

Huh?

Huh?

HON.!

You just passed the test, bitch.

They were my guys.

Making sure you're honest.

Ooh. You're good in the fire.

Came straight to me.

Where'd Trick find you?

Around.

What? You borrow too much
money from that shark?

How much you into him for?

Enough that I need this job.

Then get to work.

DUTCH: What's your sex
life with Joanna like?

Good.

Yeah?
Just like anyone else, huh?

She's never been
big on blowjobs.

Thinks they're demeaning.

Other than that...

You'd say you have
a normal sex life?

Yeah.

Why?
Still thinking I'm impotent?

You shouldn't have told people
I was something I wasn't.

Well, it's just the
profile of the kind of man

who rapes elderly women.

There's usually a
dysfunction at work.

Profile?

You think I'm a
chapter in a book?

I just think you're
exaggerating your prowess.

Yeah? Why don't you ask
my goddamn wife, then?

She'll tell you.

Talking to me about profiles,
I'm telling the truth.

You raped seven women.

Nothing to do with Joanna.

And cuddled with them for hours.

Why Old ladies, Will?

You think I resented
my mother or something?

You're digging the wrong hole.

Point me to the right one, then.

Maybe I picked them
because they were old

and they couldn't fight back.

You ever think about that?

What went through your head

as you waited for
them to come home?

Did you plan exactly how
you were going to rape them?

I didn't go there to rape them.
I went there to kill them.

The first four you just raped.

To set the table.

The cuddling was just
to keep them calm

while I decided whether
to do it or not.

If not, I just left.

Bullshit.

Killing somebody is about

the most selfish
thing you can do.

Taking away all they've got left

just so you can feel that
thing for one single moment.

The victims I chose didn't
have much life left anyway.

Just seemed less
selfish on my part.

ACEVEDA: Everything on track?

Yeah. We're just swapping
out scrips for dummy dope.

I'm on my way to Lancaster
to make the drop.

See who's on the other side.

I filled in the assistant chief.
He's pretty excited.

Yeah, we all are.

And no problems?

No.

VIC: I talked to Ronnie.

Trick hasn't been
home or to his mom's.

That means he's gotta collect
some cash to get out of Dodge.

Hey, you were Trick's
shakedown muscle.

Who owed him money?

Bunch of people.

Yeah? What people?

Huh? What people?

Huh?

Dude works out of
some burger joint-.

Couple Lithuanian taxi humps.

Who's the smallest
and who owes the most?

JULIEN: Thought we had a DB,
but the guy's still alive.

CLAUDETTE: It's our panhandler?

I thought you found
him a shelter.

He got into a beef with
a counselor and bailed.

Someone tried to
suffocate him with these.

CLAUDETTE: Bag that up.

MAN: Hey. No trespassing.
No, no.

We did the canvassing.
No one's talking.

CLAUDETTE: Who called them?

JULIENI I did.

You think they're
gonna cooperate now?

Here he comes.

VIC: Looks like Trick chose
the path of least resistance.

Pussy.

[ENGINE STARTS]

TRICK: Let go. Come on, man.

SHANE: Shut up. Hey.
Come on, man.

Shut your face.

I'll take one with
everything on it, huh?

Let's go back to when you
first moved to Los Angeles.

Why?

There are a few open
cases from back then

I'd like t0 talk...

I didn't do anything back then.

Serial offenders
start earlier than 39.

More book stuff?

You're just telling me the truth

about the crimes I've
already got you on.

Why would I lie?

[CHUCKLES]

Why would you rape?

Why would you kill?

I came here so
you could tell me.

Do you know what it's
like to have a passion,

a thing that drives you,
consumes your thoughts,

but never to be able to say a
word about it to your parents,

to your best friend,
to your wife?

I came here to talk
about this thing.

To finally be able
to talk about it,

to share it with someone,

to have you tell me why I do it.

Now, can you help me or not?

Yes.

Then tell me, why?

Why do I do it? Am I just sick?

No.

You're an organized
sociopath with tendencies...

No, that's just labels.

Just tell me why I do it.

To dominate. To feel the...

No. That's not right.

To exert your power over...

No.

You're compelled to.

By What?

Organized sociopaths tend to...

Is that who you think you
were chasing this whole time?

Atype? Some answer on an exam?

Who would you be
chasing right now

if you hadn't stumbled
over my parking tickets?

But I did find your
parking tickets.

What happens if the next
guy reads the street signs?

Over here.

Here you go.
Tell them your name.

Where's Shane?

VIC: Booking a suspect.
He'll call you.

I need to talk to
him about Treasury.

I can't talk about
it on the phone.

You sure as hell can't
talk about it here.

They left another
message for my mother

to meet them tomorrow.

What does that mean?

She'll be just fine.

No, everything's not fine.
We need to get...

Look, you've done what you
were supposed to do. Now leave.

Not until I know
what the plan is.

Would you stop talking like
you're part of my goddamn team?

You sucked us into this
shitstorm and I'll get us out,

but not with you
chirping in my face.

If I want you to do something,
Shane will let you know.

You have questions,
you keep 'em to yourself,

you sit at home and
keep your mouth shut.

LEWIS: Look at y'all.
You got nothing real.

LEM: Bitch,
we've got Trick downstairs,

you distributing
pharmaceuticals,

possession and intent to sell.

Those scrips came from
across state lines.

We're talking RICO-
That's at least 10 years-.

With feds,
you won't be out in less than eight.

VIC: Tell us who's
doing what at AGC.

We'll let you stay open.

Customize cars with
one small addition.

What's that?

Bugs. Cameras.

Bug my partners? You're crazy.

VIC: We catch 'em on tape,
they hang themselves.

End of the day,
you can play ignorant.

Blame one of your mechanics.

All you got's Trick.

Who's gonna believe a homeboy

with a rap sheet
long as my dick?

Trust me. That's long.

[CHUCKLES]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Meet our star witness.

Hey, boss.

Is Callan a friend of yours?

MAN: He didn't have friends.
He, uh...

He had issues.

So who tried to suffocate him?

I don't know.

This was found in
your shopping cart.

This is the same kind of rope

found tied around a
bag over Callan's head.

He's always stirring things up.

Picking fights, stealing stuff,
babbling his black Jesus shit.

But I didn't put
no bag on his head.

CLAUDETTE: So someone else must
have got some of your rope.

They must have.

Come on.

No one gets near your
cart without a fight,

isn't that right?

I need a drink.

I'll give you what you want,
but I'm not doing any time.

ACEVEDA: Out of the question.

I'm talking about handing you
gangsters, brokers, producers,

businessmen, dealers,
even throw in a few Republicans,

but like I said, no time.

Not a day under 10.

Okay, 10. Good.

As long as you subtract a year
for every conviction I get you.

End of the day,
you gonna owe me time.

Thank you.

CLAUDETTE: I need a name.

Crazy Eight.

No. That was just
to get you even.

Let's talk about taking a
shot at pulling yourself up.

Artie Cabravansky.

Who's that?

VIC: Artie likes bringing
hardware into South Central.

Who else?

Rob Kenneally.

Who?

Runs the Wilshire branch, L.A.
Savings.

Floats off-the-books
loans to his buddies.

ACEVEDA: What about this Alison Harden?
What's she into?

Moves underage girls.

Wanna bust some tweener
slit, she's your hookup.

Keep going.

Hey. You should hear the names
Lewis is spewing up there.

What'd you say to Mara?

I told her we're taking
care of it and not her.

She was trying to help.

We don't need her help.

She's in this too. Deep.

In waters we know how to swim.

She starts drowning,
she'll take us all down.

You could show her more respect.

Why? She stole money from you.

Look, man,
you've known us for years.

She's gonna be gone
in a couple of months.

You... We all see it.

Just because you can't
doesn't mean I'm gonna

let her be the thing

that splits us apart.

A year from now you're
gonna be thanking me.

You talked about a thing.

What?

Twice now.

Talked about a thing
at the moment when...

Yeah.

Explain that to me.

Have you ever killed
something before?

Ants. Bigger.

When I was a kid, I found a bird
on the ground, barely moving.

I felt bad so I stepped on it.

What did you feel the
moment your foot came down?

I was scared. No.

Listen, when I was a kid,

Wrought a puppy home one day.

My father told me never
to bring home a stray

so he made me go down to
the stream and drown it.

He gave me a bag and some rope,

and I walked down the
hill to the stream.

Got ready to drown this puppy,

but it didn't seem
right to kill it

just because my dad said so.

So I took it out of the bag
and I started petting it.

Just kept on petting it until I
kind of found myself choking it.

There's a look in
the thing's eyes.

People too,
right before they die.

They're on the edge
of this great big hole

and they'll do anything
not to fall in.

And at that last moment,
looking into their eyes...

You see the face of God.

No.

Well, yes,
but that's not what the thing is.

The thing's not in their eyes.

It's in here.

It's... It's feeling this...

Power? No.

Intimacy? No.

Compassion?

I'd like to go back
to my cell now.

What?

You can't help me.

I heard you were still here.

I'm sorry. I...

I wanted to get the
names and addresses

of the victims'
families because I...

I wanted to write to them
to tell them how sorry I am.

Um... That's probably not
a good idea right now.

Maybe later.

Oh, because, obviously,

there must be
something I can do.

A... A charity or something.

Just tell me what it is.

Just tell me what
I should be doing.

I can't help you.

LEM: You know, Mara taking the
money and her mom involved,

Shane feels pretty
bad about it all.

It's not his fault.

What, you tell him that?

He knows.

I mean,
he just wants to feel like

we're not turning
our backs on him.

We're not.

He wants to feel safe.

He is.

He's part of this team.

Well, Terry was part
of this team too.

And? And he got killed.

The way Shane was talking today,

it's like he thinks we
didn't do everything we...

And you believed that?

Shane bother telling you
about his latest mistake?

Sending Tavon flying
through a windshield.

What?

Tavon and Shane
were mixing it up.

Mara cracked him in the back
of the head with an iron.

He got back in the van,

swerved himself into
critical condition.

Shane tell you about that?

That he came to me
looking for help?

That I put my neck on the
line cleaning it up for them?

You need to stop questioning
me and start helping me

to put a lid on Shane's
queen bee and her mom.

If you wanna keep
this team together.

Let's get married.

We're going to.

I don't wanna wait anymore.

You mean, you just wanna go now?

Right now.
We can be in Vegas in a few hours.

But my mom and...

Well, should we call someone?

Someone to meet us? No, just us.

Just us.

I'll... I'll pack.
I just wanna look...

You do. You do.
You're beautiful.

Now? Yeah.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Where's Matt?

What's the matter?

He was fighting with Megan.

Are they okay?

Everyone's just great.

All right, I'll go talk to him.

He didn't start it, she did.

Bit him in the arm.

Well, she's just copying him.

Have you seen her artwork?

All right,
I'll get a painter to go over it.

She just keeps drawing lines

until I take the
marker out of her hand.

And then she keeps drawing

as if I never took it
away in the first place.

There's something
wrong with her.

She's a baby.

She's almost 2.
She barely speaks.

She doesn't make eye
contact, just like Matthew.

She... S-she just likes
to play by herself.

She's autistic, Vic.
Just like him.

She's autistic.

We don't know.

We are going to take
her to the doctor

and he's gonna tell
us that it's autism.

Megan!

[MATTHEW SQUEALING]

Oh, God. Matt?

You're locking him
in his room now?

To stop them from fighting.
To keep him calm.

Stop it. Stop.

Matt, stop it. Matthew.

Mommy's gonna give
you a squeeze.

I'm gonna give you a big...

I'm gonna give
you a big squeeze.

Mommy loves you. Calm down.

Mommy loves you. Calm down.

Mommy loves you. Calm down.

Mommy loves you. Calm down.

Mommy loves you. Calm...

That our would-be murderer?

Yeah. He was afraid if
Callan kept smashing up cars,

the police would crack
down on the block.

Caused the thing he
was worried about.

You ever thought about joining
the Black Officers Association?

Look, no disrespect,
but why are you all over me?

Well, I wanna help.

I wasn't aware I
needed any help.

You're becoming
one of those cops

who's content to
let things slide by.

I made P2. I pull my weight.

Going on blue runs
with Vic Mackey?

Excessive force charge in that
church a couple months back?

All I see is you
taking shortcuts.

You need a new mentor.

Anything else?

I don't wanna bore you
with what it was like

for me coming up in this
department 25 years ago.

There was a handful
of black cops.

But we pushed each other.

We looked out for each
other, we made us better.

JULIEN: You opened a door for
a lot of us and we're grateful.

Yeah, opened it wide enough

so that when a black
officer flushes out,

no one really notices anymore.

I am not flushing out.

Well, in a couple of
months, Aceveda will be out

and I'll be making
that decision.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

Hey, sweetie. Yeah.

Yeah, I'm...
I'm just wrapping up a crime scene.

Mm-hm.

It was good.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah?

Oh, really?

Yeah. What did he say?

No, I already ate. Yeah.

Yeah, no.

Well, don't wait for me.

Why don't you go ahead
and eat without me?
