These are their stories.

Hell yeah.

Be on top of your game.

Do you wanna help out?

I'm sorry.
I'm ditching the wire.

Feels like cops to me.

Lose them.

I could have blasted them.

Just stay on him.

Yeah, but now

And how long

So maybe you should

Oh, thank you.

Yeah, instead of
getting all worked up.

Look, I can drive. I can deal.

Among other things.

Like what--hitting cops, eh?

He's bad news.

What is wrong with you,

Can I use the bathroom? Huh?

Okay.
Everybody--everybody out!

Why are you pushing me, bro?
I don't wanna fight you.

I just wanted

There ain't no bathroom here.

There's something way bigger
going on here.

All the guys coming

Duran.

Look, apparently,
he owns Miami.

Now he wants New York.

He's in town for two days

Or I did.

Well, we didn't know
what was going on in there.

I came to help you.

There's no way Duran's
gonna trust me now.

Yeah, I think you're right.

So let's use it
to our advantage.

Maybe Duran can't trust you.

You're a crooked bastard

You got us in, but it's

Okay?

I can make it right.

Well, Duran's gotta

That was a quick exit you made
back there at the crime scene.

What are those two detectives
from Miami doing here?

They're here to help.

Right. Why?

Their captain

Play nice.

His full name
is Antonio Duran.

Came over from Cuba during
the Mariel boatlift in 1980,

looking for the American Dream,

which, of course,
meant selling drugs.

You guys know
the cocaine cowboys?

He was an original member.

Except he didn't get caught.

Until 2001,
when the Feds grabbed him

on money laundering charges.

Got a six-year sentence,

which would have been three
with good behavior.

But this happened
while he was inside.

That's Duran
doing the shanking.

Added 16 years.

Why'd he do it?

At the sentencing,
he said the guy was a snitch,

and he'd do it all over again.

So now Duran is out
and back to selling product.

In the '80s, it was cocaine.

These days, he's into molly,
fentanyl, occasionally heroin.

Past six months,
Miami has seen a major spike

in drug-related ODs
and homicides,

and all signs point to Duran,
but--

He's hard to track,
and we don't have much help.

People are scared to talk.

Yeah, we ran into that
problem in the Heights.

Only reason we even know he's
connected to the street racers

is our network of CIs.

Bernanda Menendez.

She's in charge of expanding
Duran's operation.

What he did in Miami,
he's planning on doing here.

Our ballpark--these runners
have transported

at least 150 pounds of product,

which means Duran's looking
for a big payday.

So now he just
needs to sell it.

Let's get out there
and buy some drugs.

of the street gang,

on top of the murder charges.

Wow, they couldn't find
anything to tie in Duran?

He's no longer
their problem, so.

He's not anybody's
problem anymore.

[chuckles]

Jamie.

Hey.

Um, good job
with Bernanda earlier.

I didn't get a chance
to tell you.

Thanks.

And Miami,
the way you worked them.

It's very smart.

[scoffs]

Bell tell you to say that?

No.

What's with the attitude?

- Sorry.
- No, you're not.

What's with the attitude?

[pensive music]

Look, you guys were right, okay?

I disobeyed an order.

I shouldn't have done that.

But you didn't have
to humiliate me.

- What are you talking about?
- You literally killed me.

You made me look like
a snitch on camera,

and the worst part is,
you enjoyed it.

It was part of the operation.

Well, you took me out
of the op.

Then you punish me,
you make me a babysitter.

It's just--

[sighs]

That's not how I meant it.

Now, look--this job is not
about ego or pride

or who gets the credit.

This is about us
catching criminals,

and we do it as a team.

You'll get your shot again.

Just gotta be ready
when it happens.
