MILO'S BEEN PEDDLING'S THE BEST WE'VE SEEN IN YEARS.

IT'S COMPLETELY UNCUT.

- MILO ALSO GAVE US A LUKE WITHOUT A LAST NAME.

APPARENTLY, THIS GUY'S A BARTENDER

AT SOME CLUB UP IN HOLLYWOOD.

- IT'S CALLED ATTITUDE.

CAT NAMED ERIC CARTER'S HALF OWNER.

- CARTER ALSO PLAYED MIDDLE LINEBACKER

FOR THE 49ERS BEFORE HE BLEW OUT HIS KNEE.

- HE WAS BORN IN COMPTON IN 1967.

GOT A COUPLE OF PRIORS AS A TEENAGER--

YOU KNOW, PETTY THEFT AND MARIJUANA--

BUT NOTHING SINCE.

HE LIVES ON SUNSET PLAZA IN LOS ANGELES.

HE WAS DIVORCED TWICE, WITH TWO GROWN KIDS,

AND DMV SHOWS HE DRIVES AN '09 BLACK MERCEDES.

- DAMN, D.P., YOU EVEN GOT HIS MATING HABITS DOWN.

- THAT'S WHAT I DO. - I LIKE THAT.

SO WE GOT MILO GETTING COKE FROM A GUY NAMED LUKE

WITH NO LAST NAME?

LET'S TALK TO LUKE.

BEST POWDER WE'VE SEEN IN YEARS,

AND THE OLD MAN MADE THE RIGHT CALL.

BLOOD DRAINED OUT HIS ASS WHEN I MENTIONED

THAT MILO PIECE OF SHIT.

I SAY LET HIM SWEAT IT OUT,

PAY HIM ANOTHER VISIT IN A COUPLE DAYS.

- YOUR MONEY'S NOT GOOD HERE. I GOT THIS, BABY. I GOT THIS.

- HE'S GOT THIS. PUT YOUR MONEY AWAY.

- YOU MAKE THE BIG SPENDER?

- I'VE SEEN HIM IN HERE BEFORE.

THE LITTLE SEXY MAMA BESIDE HIM, THAT'S HIS SISTER.

CREDIT CARDS, COUPLE HUNDRED BUCKS,

HE MUST'VE BEEN A GOOD EMPLOYEE.

- CHILL THE FUCK OUT, BOY.

[mysterious music]

*

- TELL ME ABOUT THE VEGA FAMILY.

- WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKIN' AT?

- YOU ARE IN MY SEAT.

YOU FUCKIN' DEAF?

- DIEGO, GIVE ME A MOMENT WITH THIS GENTLEMAN.

- DIEGO.

- WOULD YOU LIKE A DRINK?

- NO, I'M FINE.

- HOW ABOUT YOU? ANOTHER?

- NO, I'M GOOD, BABE. THANKS.

- RIGHT ABOUT NOW, I GUESS YOU'RE WONDERING,

"IS THIS GUY A COP?"

- NO.

I ALREADY KNOW YOU'RE A COP.

THE QUESTION IS, DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?

- WELL, LET'S SAY THAT, UH,

I'M GONNA FIND OUT EVERYTHING I NEED TO KNOW.

- IS THAT WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO?

PLAY THIS GAME?

YOU KNOW, IT'S INTERESTING.

I, UM-- I READ A DISTURBING STORY

THE OTHER DAY ABOUT THAT CHIEF OF POLICE

DOWN IN FLORIDA, THE ONE THAT WAS MURDERED.

I IMAGINE IT'S NOT UNUSUAL FOR MEN IN YOUR LINE OF WORK

TO MEET THAT TYPE OF FATE,

BUT THE WAY THEY DISMEMBERED HIM

AND THEN HAD THE HEAD SENT TO HIS WIFE...

THE MESSAGE THAT THAT SENDS,

IT'S, UH, VERY PROFOUND.

- YOU FINISHED?

- I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS AN INTERESTING MESSAGE.

- SO WHAT SORT OF MESSAGE YOU TRYING TO SEND ME?

- LIFE IS PRECIOUS, MY FRIEND.

- ONE SLIP IS ALL IT'S GONNA TAKE.

ONE SLIP.

[both speaking Spanish]

[ominous music]

*

- THE CONVERSATION WE'RE ABOUT TO HAVE NEVER HAPPENED.

- DO THEY EVER?

- WE DO NOT INVOLVE OURSELVES WITH THESE PEOPLE.

THEY'RE ON ANOTHER LEVEL.

- WE'RE ON ANOTHER LEVEL.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYIN'? THEY'RE PROTECTED?

- DIVISION 123 WAS GROUPED OUTSIDE THE FORCE, MIKE,

SO YOU COULD BEND THE RULES.

- EXACTLY.

- BUT YOU DON'T BEND THE RULES, MIKE.

YOU BREAK THEM. AND WE DON'T EXIST, REMEMBER?

I'VE WORKED DAMN HARD TO EARN THE TITLE OF COMMANDER,

AND I WON'T PUT THAT ON THE LINE FOR ANYBODY, MIKE,

INCLUDING YOU.

- DOES THIS RING OF PROTECTION

EXTEND DOWN INTO THE DEPARTMENT?

- I THINK I'M GONNA LET THAT ONE SLIDE.

- WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?

- WHAT I'M SAYING IS, I CAN TURN A BLIND EYE,

BUT I CAN ONLY TURN SO FAR.

HAVE YOU THOUGHT FOR ONE MOMENT

THAT IF THIS THING GOES AWRY,

YOU'D TAKE DOWN SEVEN GOOD COPS WITH YOU?

WE DON'T WANT TO BE EXPOSED LIKE THAT, MIKE.

RIGHT?

- [sighs]

[melancholy music]

*

[both speaking Spanish]

- DO YOU HAVE TO ASK?

- HE HAS BROUGHT US A LOT OF MONEY, CATALINA.

- HE SOLD DRUGS TO OUR EMPLOYEES.

NOW WE HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS.

- [speaking Spanish]

BROTHER, LET ME TAKE CARE OF HIM.

- HI, BABY.

- HOW MUCH DO YOU LOVE ME?

- OH, I LOVE YOU MADLY.

YOU KNOW I DO.

I'LL DO ANYTHING FOR YOU.

- ANYTHING?

[intense music]

[muffled speech]

GIVE ME THE WEST SIDE.

[gunshot]

[glasses clinking]

[smooth jazz music]

- THESE VEGAS ARE DIRTY.

THEY'RE ARROGANT.

THEY'RE INVOLVED.

- HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?

- THIS BROAD AND HER BROTHERS,

THEY HAVE MORE MONEY THAN DONALD TRUMP.

- AND YOU THINK CARTER'S INVOLVED.

- A STRONG HUNCH.

- I HAVE A STRONG HUNCH MY WIFE IS FUCKIN' THE POOL GUY,

BUT I CAN'T DO SHIT WITH THAT EITHER.

- I GOT AN EX-FOOTBALL PLAYER HOOKED UP WITH A QUEEN BEE.

I'D CALL IT A STRONG HUNCH.

- YOU BUY INTO THIS?

- INFORMANTS ARE RUNNIN' SCARED.

NOBODY'S TALKIN'.

- WHAT DO YOU WANT?

- A SEARCH WARRANT.

- SINCE WHEN DO YOU NEED A SEARCH WARRANT?

JUST BUY A DISPOSABLE CELL PHONE,

PUNCH AN APPROPRIATE NUMBER.

PRESTO, YOU HAVE YOUR SEARCH WARRANT.

WOW, DID I SAY THAT?

- YOU'VE DONE THIS BEFORE?

- NOT THAT I EVER TOLD YOU ABOUT.

[glass clinking]

- TO AN EVERLASTING LIFE TOGETHER.

TAKES ONE HEART TO KEEP YOU ALIVE,

TWO HEARTS TO KEEP YOU LIVIN'.

I LOVE YOU TWO FROM THE BOTTOM OF MINE.

CHEERS.

- THERE'S YOUR CHANGE.

- THANKS, LADY.

THANKS FOR COMIN' UP, CASSIDY.

- NO PROBLEM.

- SO BEFORE YOU, THERE WAS THIS YOUNG COP

NAMED ERICA YAZ WHO JOINED THE DIVISION.

SMART COP.

SHE WORKED FOR US FOR MORE THAN FIVE YEARS.

WE DECIDED TO INFILTRATE HER

ON THIS BIG CASE WE WERE WORKIN' ON.

SHE SPENT SEVERAL MONTHS GETTIN' THIS GUY TO TRUST HER.

SHE EVEN TOLD ME THAT SHE GOT HIM

TO FALL IN LOVE WITH HER.

THEN ONE DAY, WE GET A PHONE CALL.

THEY FOUND HER HANGING FROM A FLAGPOLE

IN FRONT OF A SCHOOL.

- IF YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT BRINGING ME IN,

I'LL DO IT.

- HOW DO I KNOW YOU CAN HANDLE IT?

- I GOT NOTHING ELSE.

[foreboding music]

*

[car engine revving]

- YOU KNOW, THEY SAY THAT IF YOU WAKE UP EARLY ENOUGH,

- ARI SOFFER.

- LIEUTENANT WILSON.

- NICE TO MEET YOU TOO.

- CATALINA VEGA. - SHE IN?

WE'RE HERE TO SPEAK TO YOU A LITTLE BIT MORE

ABOUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH ERIC CARTER.

- THAT'S OVER.

I DON'T DEAL WITH PEOPLE WHO SELL DRUGS

TO MY EMPLOYEES.

- SO YOU TALKED TO HIM ABOUT IT?

- I DIDN'T HAVE TO.

I DON'T NEED ANYBODY IN MY LIFE

HAVING ANYTHING TO DO WITH ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES,

SO I DUMPED HIM.

- THAT'S A PRETTY COOL BAG RIGHT THERE.

WHAT'S SOMETHING LIKE THAT RUN?

- 10 GRAND,

BUT EVERYTHING'S NEGOTIABLE.

- WHAT IS IT WITH YOU PEOPLE?

EVERYTHING'S NEGOTIABLE?

- IF WE'RE THROUGH HERE, GENTLEMEN,

I NEED TO GET BACK TO WORK.

IF YOU NEED INFORMATION, WHY DON'T YOU ASK ERIC?

- I GOT A BETTER IDEA.

WHY DON'T YOU TELL US WHERE HE IS?

[seedy music]

[siren wailing]

- REPORTED THAT FIGHTING HAS ESCALATED

BETWEEN THE MEXICAN ARMY AND THE MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS.

MEXICAN OFFICIALS DIEGO GARCIA AND CESAR CRUZ

HAVE REPORTEDLY STEPPED DOWN FROM THEIR POSITIONS

AFTER TWO AMERICAN TOURISTS WERE FOUND DECAPITATED.

THE BEHEADINGS ARE BELIEVED TO BE CARTEL-RELATED.

GARCIA AND CRUZ HAVE BOTH REFUSED TO COMMENT.

[ominous music]

- BILLIE.

- HI. - HI, THIS IS MIKE.

CAPTAIN MIKE MARINO.

- OH, WELL, DO I CALL YOU CAPTAIN,

OR DO I CALL YOU MIKE?

- MIKE'S FINE.

- WELL, IT'S NICE TO MEET YOU, MIKE.

- UH, BODY WAS POSITIVELY I.D.'D AS ERIC CARTER.

SOME FISHERMEN CAUGHT HIM IN THEIR NET.

- SO WHERE'S THE REST OF HIM?

- HE SPENT A LOT OF TIME IN THE WATER.

WE'RE LUCKY WE HAVE THIS MUCH.

YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS.

- I DIDN'T HAVE DINNER.

- JUST DON'T GET THAT SHIT ON MY TABLE.

- OKAY, OKAY.

- SO WHAT'S THE CAUSE OF DEATH?

- A SINGLE ROUND FROM A .357 MAGNUM

FIRED AT CLOSE RANGE

ENTERED THE OCCIPITAL LOBE

AND EXITED THE TEMPORAL LOBE HERE.

- BIT OF AN OVERKILL.

MIKE.

LOOK,

JEANNIE WAS YOUR WIFE,

BUT SHE WAS ALSO MY SISTER.

AND SHE WAS KILLED, AND YOU GOT THE GUY THAT DID IT.

I'M NOT TRYING TO TELL YOU HOW TO LIVE YOUR LIFE.

MAYBE WE JUST GOT TO MOVE ON.

- ¿QUE PASA?

- DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU

THAT THE COPS ARE SITTING OUTSIDE OUR HOUSE?

- NO, THEY'VE BEEN OUT THERE FOR HOURS.

- DO YOU THINK IT WOULD BE WISE

TO SEND A MESSAGE TO MR. MARINO?

[sighs]

[cell phone ringing]

- HELLO.

[sighs] WHEN?

OKAY.

FUCK.

[eerie music]

- IT'S BAD, MIKE.

[suspenseful music]

[baby crying]

- SEEMS LIKE EVERY TIME WE RING A DOORBELL, SOMEONE DIES.

- WELL, SORRY ABOUT YOUR COLLEAGUE.

- THESE FOLKS YOU'RE MESSING WITH,

THEY DON'T PLAY GAMES.

- NO SHIT. - NOBODY'S TALKING.

LOOK, WE NEED SOME INFORMATION--

- WELL, IT'S ALL-OUT WAR WITH THESE DRUG CARTELS.

- THERE ARE DEAD BODIES ALL OVER THE STREETS.

- ESTIMATED THAT 50% OF THE COPS ARE ON THE TAKE.

- WHAT WE'RE SAYING IS, WE HAVE ENOUGH SHIT ON OUR PLATE.

WITHOUT MESSING WITH YOUR SHIT.

- I'LL HAVE A DIET SODA, PLEASE.

- I'LL GET YOU THAT DIET SODA,

AND YOU LOOK LIKE YOU COULD USE A BLOODY MARY.

- YEAH, THANK YOU.

YOU ALONE?

- OH, WHY WOULDN'T I BE?

I FEEL SAFE HERE.

THIS IS A COP HANGOUT, ISN'T IT?

- YOU DO YOUR HOMEWORK, DON'T YOU?

- I HAVE MY SOURCES.

- THAT COP HAD A NAME.

HE HAD A WIFE.

WHO'S PROTECTING YOU?

- I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.

- YOU GOT BALLS COMING IN HERE.

- WHAT DO YOU WANT, MICHAEL?

- I WANT TO RID THE PLANET OF SCUM LIKE YOU.

- YOU'RE AN IDEALIST,

MICHAEL JOSEPH MARINO.

I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU.

I ALSO KNOW THAT YOU'RE A VERY ANGRY MAN.

WELL, TODAY'S WORLD IS NOT THE SAME WORLD

THAT YOU ONCE KNEW.

DEALS COULD BE MADE.

I COULD GIVE YOU EVERYTHING

THAT YOU COULD EVER WANT.

- AS LONG AS IT TAKES,

MISS VEGA, CATALINA,

I'M GONNA TAKE YOU DOWN.

I'M GONNA TAKE YOUR BROTHERS DOWN.

AND I DON'T CARE HOW LONG IT TAKES ME

UNTIL THEY PUT ME SIX FEET UNDER.

- YOU SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL

FOR WHAT YOU WISH FOR.

THIS IS FOR YOU.

IT'S A GIFT.

I KNOW YOU LIKED IT.

MAYBE YOU COULD FIND SOME GOOD USE FOR IT.

[chuckles]

- GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE.

[thunder booming]

- THEY'RE WAITING FOR YOU IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM.

IT'S ACROSS THE HALL.

- THANK YOU.

- TAKE A SEAT, MIKE.

I THINK YOU KNOW WHY YOU'RE HERE.

- I'M SURE YOU'RE GONNA TELL ME WHY.

- WE SEEM TO HAVE A PROBLEM DEVELOPING.

- YOU'RE BLAMING ME? - SHOULD I?

- YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT TRYING TO GET IN YOUR WAY.

- THEN DON'T.

- LOOK, I KNOW THAT NONE OF US ARE SUPPOSED TO KNOW

WHAT YOU AND YOUR DIVISION ARE DOING.

HOW MANY DEAD BODIES HAVE TO KEEP TURNING UP

BEFORE WE'RE ALLOWED TO DO OUR JOB?

- SO WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE

A FEW CRIMINALS KILLING EACH OTHER

OR THOUSANDS OF KIDS HOOKED ON DRUGS,

MURDERING LIQUOR STORE OWNERS FOR A FIX?

- AND THE DEAD COP,

WAS IT WORTH IT?

- OTTO, WHAT THE HELL YOU DOIN' HERE?

- WE INVITED HIM.

- JUST DOIN' MY JOB, MIKE.

- WHAT JOB'S THAT?

- [clears throat]

HITS WERE ALL DONE WITH LARGE-CALIBER HANDGUNS.

ALL THE SHELL CASINGS AT THE CRIME SCENES

MATCH THE GUN THAT WAS USED.

- SO NOW YOU'RE ON THEIR SIDE.

- COME ON, THIS IS NOT ABOUT SIDES.

IT'S ABOUT US DOING OUR JOB THE WAY WE'RE SUPPOSED TO.

AND DON'T LET HIM OUT OF YOUR SIGHT.

- ALL RIGHT.

[both moaning]

- FUCK.

WHAT THE FUCK, CATALINA?

- [laughs]

OH, ANTONIO.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ENJOY MORE,

EITHER MAKING LOVE TO A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN

OR SLASHING YOUR KNIFE INTO AN UGLY MAN.

- I THINK WE COULD HAVE SOME PRIVACY.

- YOU CAN HAVE WHAT YOU LIKE.

YOU ALWAYS HAVE.

- IS THAT RIGHT?

I CAN HAVE WHATEVER I WANT.

- [laughs]

I HAVE A QUESTION, LITTLE ONE.

DID MY BROTHER MAKE YOU HAPPY?

- WHAT DO YOU THINK?

- SEX WITHOUT VIOLENCE...

IS MEDIOCRITY.

ENJOY IT WHILE IT LASTS.

- I WILL.

[water pattering]

- * YEAH, WE CAME HERE TO FIGHT FOR ONE REASON *

* AND NOBODY IS LEAVIN' TILL ONE OF US *

* STOPS SWINGIN' OR SOMEBODY'S NOT BREATHIN' *

* WE'LL FIGHT JUST LIKE A COUPLE WILD LIONS *

* SO LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE

* WE'LL FIGHT FOR ONE REASON

* AND NOBODY IS LEAVIN'

- YO, COME ON. HICK'S ON THE MOVE.

- * WE'LL FIGHT JUST LIKE A COUPLE WILD LIONS *

- HEY, MAN, I'M LOOKIN' FOR SOMEBODY NAMED LOU.

- WHO WANTS TO KNOW?

- I'M COWBOY.

I'M TOLD MAYBE YOU, UH,

MIGHT BE ABLE TO HOOK ME UP WITH, LIKE, A--

A MANNEQUIN-LIKE THING.

I'LL GIVE YOU 50 BUCKS FOR THIS ONE.

- SO I THOUGHT YOU GUYS MIGHT WANT TO KNOW

WHAT MY GIRLS OVERHEARD LAST NIGHT.

- I'M ALL EARS.

- WELL, CHASTITY,

DANCING FOR A COUPLE OF GUYS,

COUPLE OF HEAVIES ALL JACKED UP,

BIG DUDES,

SHE SAYS THEY START BRAGGIN',

TALKIN' ABOUT WHACKIN' COPS AND SHIT.

- DID SHE SAY WHICH ONES?

- WHY DON'T YOU ASK HER?

SHE'S THE ONE IN THE MIDDLE,

DOIN' SHIT SHE AIN'T SUPPOSED TO BE DOING.

- YOU WOULDN'T HAPPEN TO HAVE ANY TAPE

WE MIGHT WANT TO LOOK AT, WOULD YOU?

- OOH, I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT ASK THAT.

WELL, CHECK THIS OUT.

RIGHT ABOUT NOW.

- YOU MIND IF I HAVE A FEW WORDS WITH MISS CHASTITY?

- BE MY GUEST.

- SO THE COWBOY'S GOT A NAME.

IT'S RANDY PRICE. HE'S FROM MEMPHIS.

THEY CALL HIM "THE HICK."

HE WAS PICKED UP ONCE ON SUSPICION OF ARMED ROBBERY.

HE WAS TRYIN' TO HOLD UP A COUPLE OF DRUG DEALERS,

BUT THEY LET HIM GO 'CAUSE HE LED 'EM TO SOME DRUG DEALS

THEY WERE TRYIN' TO TAKE DOWN FOR MONTHS.

- SO WHAT IS THE GOOD MAYOR ALVAREZ

DOING IN A PHOTO WITH CATALINA VEGA?

- WELL, HE'S GOT GOOD TASTE.

HIS WIFE LEFT HIM 'CAUSE HE WAS FUCKIN'

A 29-YEAR-OLD STRIPPER.

NOW WE KNOW HE WAS FUCKIN' CATALINA VEGA.

- SO THEN I'M WONDERIN' WHAT THE GOOD MAYOR ALVAREZ

IS DOIN' HANGING WITH THE VEGA FAMILY.

- WHAT ABOUT THESE TWO GENTLEMEN

THAT WERE BRAGGIN' ABOUT KILLIN' COPS?

- BEEN ON THE VEGA PAYROLL FOR YEARS.

ANTONIO CALLS 'EM HIS SECURITY PEOPLE.

- SO THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL 'EM NOW, SECURITY PEOPLE,

'CAUSE YOU'RE, LIKE, IN WITH THE FAMILY?

THEY'RE FUCKIN' SCUMBAGS JUST LIKE YOUR BOYFRIEND, ANTONIO.

- YOU FUCKIN' ASSHOLE.

WHY DON'T YOU DO YOUR JOB AND LET ME DO MINE?

- I AM DOIN' MY JOB.

I'M NOT GETTIN' CAUGHT UP LIKE SOME PEOPLE.

- IS THERE A PROBLEM, ANDRE?

IS THERE A PROBLEM?

- THERE IS NO PROBLEM, SIR.

- WE HAVE A GOOD GAME PLAN HERE,

AND I DON'T NEED IT TO BE FUCKED UP

AT THE 12TH HOUR.

I NEED EVERYONE TO BE FOCUSED.

ALL RIGHT, CHECK OUT TENNESSEE.

SEE WHAT THE HELL HE'S DOIN' IN MANHATTAN.

- ANDRE,

MIND HANGIN' TIGHT IN MY OFFICE FOR A MINUTE?

SO I GOT TOO MUCH RESPECT FOR YOU

TO BEAT AROUND THE BUSH.

- NEVER HAVE.

- I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOIN' ON BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU,

BUT QUITE FRANKLY, I DON'T GIVE A FUCK.

I'M NOT GONNA JEOPARDIZE YOU. I'M NOT GONNA JEOPARDIZE HER.

I'M NOT GONNA JEOPARDIZE THIS CASE.

SO I'M GONNA ASK YOU ONE TIME, MAN.

CAN YOU HANDLE THIS SHIT?

- I CAN HANDLE IT.

I THINK YOU SHOULD BE ASKIN' HER THAT.

- IT'S MY BUSINESS.

- OKAY.

I'M GOOD.

- GOOD.

TALK TO ME.

- I SLEPT WITH VEGA.

- I KNOW.

- HOW DO YOU KNOW?

- IT'S MY JOB.

- AND YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT?

- NOW, YOU KNOW WHAT I SAY, CASSIDY.

FUCK THE RULES AND THOSE WHO WROTE 'EM.

- I HEARD ANTONIO TALKING TO DIEGO AND CATALINA

LIKE YACONELLI WAS A TROPHY KILL.

HE SAID HE SQUEALED LIKE A PIG WHEN HE CUT OFF HIS NIPPLE.

THEN HE LAUGHED,

AND HE SAID HE WANTED TO KEEP IT AS A SOUVENIR.

- I'M GONNA PULL YOU OUT.

YOU DID GOOD.

- WE'RE HERE TO SEE MR. VEGA.

- DO YOU HAVE AN APPOINTMENT?

- DON'T NEED ONE.

- MAY I POUR YOU GENTLEMEN SOMETHING SPECIAL?

- YOU KNOW THE DRILL.

WE'RE ON DUTY. WE CAN'T DO THAT.

- I'LL HAVE WHAT YOU'RE HAVIN'.

- PLEASE, MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME.

TO WHAT DO I OWE THIS VISIT, HUH?

- WE'RE JUST HERE TO INVITE YOU

TO PLAY 18 HOLES OF GOLF WITH US ON SUNDAY.

YOU AVAILABLE?

- I'M SORRY, GENTLEMEN. I DON'T PLAY GOLF.

- NEITHER DO WE.

- I SEE.

- CATALINA ISLAND.

WHAT IS IT, GENE?

"26 MILES ACROSS THE SEA,

"SANTA CATALINA'S WAITING FOR ME,

"THE ISLAND OF ROMANCE,

ROMANCE."

YOU LIKE TO FISH?

- WHAT?

- NEITHER DO I.

I WONDER IF, UH,

ERIC CARTER LIKED TO FISH.

THE NAME STEVE YACONELLI RING A BELL?

HE'S A COP THAT WORKED FOR US.

DEAD, MISSING PART OF HIS ANATOMY.

YOU WOULDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT?

NAH, I DIDN'T THINK SO.

HEY, GINO, THINK STEVE LIKED TO FISH?

YOU SEE, I GET SEASICK, THE INNER EAR THING.

COULDN'T STAND RIDING THOSE FUCKIN' TEACUPS

WHEN I WAS A KID.

SAME THING WITH THE MERRY-GO-ROUNDS.

I THINK I'D LIKE FISHIN', GENE,

IF I DIDN'T GET SO FUCKIN' SICK.

I HATE PUKING,

BUT I LOVE CATCHIN' SHIT.

- ENOUGH WITH THIS BULLSHIT, GENTLEMEN.

I POUR YOU A SHOT OF $800 TEQUILA,

AND YOU WANT TO COME IN HERE AND FUCK WITH ME?

ARE YOU THAT CRAZY?

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

- THIS PIECE OF SHIT JUST CALL ME CRAZY?

EVERY MAN NEEDS SOME FUCKIN' FUN IN HIS LIFE.

[siren wailing]

- SO HOW ARE THINGS GOING WITH, UH--WITH PAM?

- DON'T YOU EVER SHUT UP ABOUT THAT?

YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT WOMEN?

LET'S TALK ABOUT SOLEIL.

DID YOU EVER HIT THAT? - NO.

[flashlight clicks]

- KEEP YOUR HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE 'EM.

- YOU'RE MAKIN' A BIG MISTAKE, PAL.

[flashlight clicks]

- MOVE IT.

- YOU DRIVE.

GET IN THE BACK.

GET IN THE FUCKIN' CAR.

[siren wailing]

[monitor beeping]

- IT'S DONE, SURE.

- WHAT'S THE DAMAGE? - WILSON'S GOOD.

HIS WIFE JUST CAME AND TOOK HIM HOME.

AND MARINO ACTUALLY DOESN'T LOOK TOO BAD

CONSIDERING HE JUST HAD THE CRAP KICKED OUT OF HIM.

- IS HE CONSCIOUS? - HE'S CONSCIOUS.

LIKE ALWAYS, HE'S NOT SAYIN' SHIT.

- HOW ABOUT WILSON?

- HE GAVE THE NAME OF THE DECEASED

AS FLAGMAN.

- AND THAT'S IT? - NOPE.

WE GOT A HELL OF A MESS AT THE CRIME SCENE,

AND THE PRESS IS ALREADY BREATHING DOWN OUR BACKS.

- KEEP THIS AIRTIGHT.

- YOU'RE A LUCKY BOY. EVERYTHING LOOKS GOOD.

NO BROKEN RIBS.

THE FACIAL LACERATIONS AND CONTUSIONS ARE NO BIG DEAL.

THE NURSE WILL HELP YOU FINISH YOUR PAPERWORK,

AND YOU'LL BE GOOD TO GO.

- THANK YOU.

- THIS SHIT STOPS NOW.

- I'LL BE RIGHT OUTSIDE.

- I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU END UP ON AN AUTOPSY TABLE, MIKE.

I CAN HAVE ANTONIO VEGA PICKED UP RIGHT NOW

FOR SUSPICION OF MURDER AND END THIS.

- I WANT 'EM ALL.

- BIG NICK.

YOU LOOK LIKE SHIT.

- CAN YOU CUT ME SOME SLACK HERE, JUAN?

- CAN'T DO IT, NICK. IT'S BUSINESS.

CATALINA VEGA, WAS ARRESTED

AT HER MULTIMILLION-DOLLAR HOME IN MALIBU.

A PHOTO HAS BEEN RELEASED

OF THE 32-YEAR-OLD FORMER BEAUTY QUEEN

WITH THE NOW FORMER MAYOR ALVAREZ.

NO ONE IS COMMENTING ON THE POSSIBLE CONNECTION

BETWEEN ALVAREZ AND THE DEATHS AND ARRESTS

INVOLVING THE VEGA FAMILY.

THE ONLY COMMENTS FROM NEW ACTING MAYOR STEVEN JAMES

ARE KUDOS TO LOS ANGELES POLICE CHIEF EARL CURTIN

FOR A JOB WELL DONE

IN THE TAKEDOWN YESTERDAY THAT OCCURRED IN SOUTHGATE.

- IN OTHER LATE-BREAKING NEWS,

WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE CONNECTED TO THE NEWS

OUT OF THE MAYOR'S OFFICE THIS MORNING,

TWO MEMBERS OF AN INFLUENTIAL FAMILY,

ANTONIO AND DIEGO VEGA, WERE FOUND KILLED

IN AN L.A. DEPARTMENT SHOOT-OUT.

- LET'S GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE.

- WELL, THAT'S SOME SHIT, MAN.

- SPECIAL COMMENDATIONS TO THE LAPD?

WE DO ALL THE WORK, AND THEY GET ALL THE CREDIT?

THAT'S FUCKED UP. - LIKE I GIVE A DAMN ABOUT THAT.

I GOT TO SPEND MY TIME OFF IN THERAPY.

EVERYBODY ELSE AROUND HERE WALKIN' FINE; I GOT TO LIMP.

IT'S ALL GOOD, THOUGH, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I GET

FOR LETTIN' THAT WHITE BOY PUT A HOLE IN MY LEG.
