(cameras snapping)

>> There's no one here, they've been scared off.

>> Woman: Gimme a break, please, leave me alone.

>> Would you pull over?

I wanna talk to this girl right here.

>> Yeah. >> Over here.

Get your window down.

How you doing, who are these people here?

>> They're from some sort of citizen's committee.

>> Okay, I wanna talk to the Constable.

They've got cameras.

Oh, for God sakes.

Thanks.

Good evening, Constable.

>> Hello, sir.

>> Dominic: How long these people been here?

>> They were here when I arrived, so three hours.

>> Three hours? >> Yeah.

They've been taking pictures of the john's vehicles,

getting plate numbers. >> Taking pictures.

The street's been dead like this all night?

>> Yeah, there were a couple

of girls here for about 10 minutes.

They split as soon as they realized what was going on.

>> Okay, thank you.

>> Actually I'll handle it, why don't you let me handle it?

They have cameras.

>> Okay, find out who they, get his picture, get names.

>> Right.

>> Hey, that's enough.

Hi, how you folks doing?

>> Good. >> Good.

Who are you representing?

>> We're with the Citizen's

Coalition to Stop the Red Light Zone.

We own businesses in the area, is that the Mayor?

>> Yeah sure, do you have cards, do you have business cards?

I'm gonna need a contact number.

>> Could we talk to the Mayor about this?

>> Sure, it's probably not a good idea tonight.

He's had a long day but we've got your cards,

know where to get in touch with you, so thank you.

>> Okay.

(distant sirens blaring)

(anxious violin music)

>> What kinda old money? >> Railroad money.

Dubreau's from an old Vancouver family.

His great-grandfather was an Attorney-General

back during the First World War.

>> So that's how he inherited

all that property, it's old railroad grants.

>> Mm hmm. >> Okay.

>> The Dubreaus were granted huge tracts of prime

real estate, probably worth a couple hundred million.

>> Really?

Clarke.

>> Hey. >> Hi, thanks for coming.

>> Yeah, no problem.

>> This is my assistant, Claire.

Clarke Messner. >> Claire, how are you?

>> Claire: Hello, nice to meet you.

>> Yeah, you too.

>> You hungry? >> Yeah.

I could use a little something.

>> Yeah, go for it.

>> So, how we doing?

>> I don't think we're gonna be able to

connect Dubreau to Garth and Dennis' murders at all.

But I do believe that we can

maybe expose his pedophile ring.

>> You think they're still active after all these years?

>> Oh yeah, I do and I wanted to let you know that Dubreau,

he's a very powerful, heavy individual.

He's got a lot of friends in government.

He's one of the city's biggest developers.

He holds a lot of property, right?

So I think it'd be wise if we took this pretty carefully.

>> What more can he do to me?

>> Have you heard of the Sunrise Youth Center?

>> Yeah sure, it's a new Federal initiative,

a hostel for street kids.

It's been a long time coming, we really need it.

There's a lot of hurting kids out there,

especially with the crystal meth everywhere.

>> No kidding. >> You know,

they're gonna break ground next month.

>> Yeah.

>> Mr. Dubreau donated the property for the center.

He also sits on the Board.

>> Are you kiddin' me? >> No.

He's the Chairman.

>> You think if we go after him, he'll sink the center?

>> It could happen.

>> Nice to see you, Roger.

>> Thanks for the invitation.

>> Lloyd: Can I offer you a drink?

>> Whatever you're having, thanks.

>> Lloyd: A glass for Roger please, Marilyn.

Come in.

>> Congratulations, I understand a deal

has gone through with Niagara for the race track.

>> Thank you, we're just signing all the papers.

>> I hope you got a good deal.

>> Well, it was a little more costly than I foresaw

but there's some good in it, some bad, you know?

It's like every deal, you have to bleed a little.

So tell me, are you still

interested in acquiring the race track?

>> Of course, we're very interested in that property.

>> You already own a few race tracks

around the country, don't you?

>> Yes we do, we have a lot of experience there.

>> I was thinking we might discuss a possible partnership.

Would you be interested in that?

>> Absolutely.

Thank you.

Of course.

>> Good.

Come.

I want you to try some of these oysters.

They come from Fannie Bay on the island.

>> Fannie Bay?

>> I had them flown in this afternoon, dig in.

(train horn blaring)

(relaxed ensemble music)

>> Good morning.

Sam.

>> Hi.

>> You got those names from that

citizen's committee from that night?

>> Mm hmm. >> Okay, who are they?

Where do they come from?

>> I don't know where they're from

but they've got their own website.

It's the Citizen's Committee to Stop the Red Light Zone.

You might want to check that out.

>> Dominic: Okay, what's up first?

>> First up, you've got Libby Burton,

Port Authority, she's just coming in now

and then you've got Chief Jacobs about the squatters cab.

>> Oh, good.

Sam, I want you to do me a favor.

I want you to call the Prime Minister's Office

and I want a meeting when he comes down here.

>> Okay. >> Okay?

>> Hi Libby, come on in please.

>> Right with you.

Rita.

I've got a good one for you.

I want you to do some research and I want you to find out

who these people are on the Citizen's Committee there.

Sam's got the website, okay? >> Yeah.

You still want a meeting with Billie Simms thought?

>> Later, I want you to find out who these people are.

I want you to find out what planet they come from.

>> Rita: Got it.

>> Oh yeah, Billie Simms, yeah.

>> Okay. >> Later.

Libby, so sorry to keep you waiting.

Okay, I've got a solution to your little problem down there.

Because if you haven't already noticed,

you've got a little problem with your waterfront park.

The squatters down on your waterfront park down there.

>> Suddenly it's my park and my problem.

>> That's okay, I got some good news.

We're gonna actually help you out with that.

What we're gonna do is we're gonna take over

the policing of that park and that totally

lets you guys off the hook, how does that sound?

>> Well it's Federal property.

I think we should be responsible.

>> I don't want the horsemen

going in there and cracking skulls, okay?

That's just not gonna happen here.

Those people are staying in that squat

until we can find housing for them.

It has to be that way.

>> I don't know if you're aware,

but that land's slated for port expansion.

>> I'm aware.

>> Libby: And we've got plans

for a cruise ship terminal down there.

>> You're gonna have to put those plans

on hold just for a little while, it's not a big deal.

>> That is extremely valuable property.

>> And that is the last piece

of public access to the waterfront.

As a matter of fact, the last and the only.

>> Well if you have your sights set on taking it over,

I think you're gonna be in for a hell of a fight.

>> Well, I kinda figured I would be.

I just want to let you know about the policing but you know,

if the Feds were to kick in some dough for the housing,

we'd be able to get those squatters

out of the park all the sooner.

>> Well I guess I'll be taking it back

to the Board and letting them know your plans.

>> Appreciate that, thank you.

>> Nice to see you.

>> Likewise.

Okay, where are we now?

>> Chief of Police,

Jacobs. >> Oh, good.

That went well.

(siren blaring)

>> You were returning with the search warrant.

So you weren't on the scene.

>> I arrived just after the shooting.

>> Did you see any sign of a Fire Department notice anywhere?

You know the notices I'm talking about?

>> I've seen them, they say that Fire and Rescue will be

coming back to do a routine electrical safety inspection.

No, I didn't see it.

>> Can I talk to you a minute, Inspector?

>> Excuse me.

>> What's going on?

I was supposed to be in on

all the interviews on this investigation.

>> Sorry, the Constable wanted to start without you.

>> Oh, she's running the interview, is she?

>> My apologies.

>> Good morning, Constable. >> Good morning.

>> How are we feeling?

>> Not great.

>> My condolences.

Do you mind if we back up and start again?

>> No.

>> Can we start with the warrant?

>> Mick: Yeah, they don't know,

it's still undetermined, yeah.

>> Richard Norton to see Mr. Leary.

>> Claire: Was he expecting you?

>> No, I was just in the neighborhood.

I represent Mr. James Dubreau.

>> Mr. Norton.

Come on in, how can I help you?

>> My client informed me that you had some

questions for him regarding an old investigation.

>> Yeah, yeah, but I don't think

we're gonna be pursuing that right now.

>> Mr. Dubreau as you might be aware

is quite a high profile individual.

>> He is, yeah.

>> Should we be concerned about

any allegations that might be coming forth?

>> I'm not alleging anything.

In fact, I don't think we'll be pursuing

Mr. Dubreau for any testimony at this point.

>> This is for an inquest?

>> Yeah, I'm still looking into things though.

I wouldn't be too concerned about it.

>> I can assume that you won't

be needing my client's cooperation then?

>> Okay, all right.

>> Because he instructed me to tell you that he'd be willing

to cooperate in any investigation you might be conducting.

>> That's good to know, but like I said,

I don't think we'll be going down that road, but thank you.

>> All right.

Thanks for the time.

>> Thank you.

Bye bye.

>> What was that about?

>> It looks like we got Dubreau stickin' his nose in.

Now we're gonna have to get the jump on this, okay?

call up Chick on Homicide, see if he can talk to me

and get ahold of the pathologist and see

if she can make it up here as soon as she can.

All right.

Shit.

>> Constable: How you doing?

>> All right.

You?

>> Organized Crime was grilling me for a couple of hours.

>> What's going on?

>> They're blowing the whole incident out of proportion.

Talking about how this grower

was big time and connected to the Mexican Mafia.

>> That's bullshit. >> Yeah.

That's what I told them.

They didn't seem to like the answer.

They were talking about the Fire Department notice you saw.

Asking if I saw it. >> What'd you say?

>> I said I didn't arrive until after the shooting.

>> It was there.

Maybe Fire and Rescue picked it up afterwards.

>> Maybe.

I'm going to see Barb's parents.

>> I'm not up for it.

>> I think it'd be good for you.

They're not blaming you, not at all.

Barb spoke very highly of you.

>> Okay.

>> The city's taking over responsibility for Crab Park.

That means you're policing it, okay?

>> Did the Feds agree to this?

>> We had the conversation, she was just here.

We're taking over that park until

we can find housing for those folks down there.

>> You are aware that we've got dealers moving in down there?

>> Dealers?

>> They've heard that it's hands-off for us

and so they're setting up camp with the squatters.

>> I guess we'll have to handle that.

What we're trying to do, Bill,

we're trying to build up trust all over again

after that stupid raid that you pulled down there.

The only way that's gonna happen

is they gotta see some kind of a sign from us.

So what I'm asking you to do here, Bill,

is pull out that undercover operator if you got one, okay?

>> How am I supposed to police it?

>> They're gonna police it themselves

and when they call for assistance,

you're gonna provide it.

>> All right.

Your call.

>> Jesus Christ, Bill, we gotta start

pulling in the same direction here at some point.

>> If that's the way you wanna go.

>> Absolutely it's the way I want to go, yeah.

Can we just talk for a minute about

the grow op shooting, what's happening there?

>> I've got some very good investigators on it.

It's progressing.

>> You've got some good investigators and yet you saw fit

to throw this whole thing over to Organized Crime, why?

>> It's narcotics, the guy was affiliated

with organized crime, it's their jurisdiction.

>> You don't think that's blowing it way out of proportion?

>> No, I don't.

>> Okay, that's good.

I'll be keeping my eye on that one.

All right, thank you for making the trip

all the way over here, I really appreciate it.

What's the matter, something else?

>> I understand I'm up for an early performance review.

>> It's true.

The Board's decided to take a look.

>> So how am I doing?

>> As long as you keep to the budget, Bill,

I think you'll come out pretty good in this.

You should do just fine.

>> The Constable on the grow op shooting is saying

she saw a notice from Fire and Rescue in the grow op.

>> Ferris is saying this?

>> Right, says she saw it on the floor.

>> Which means Fire and Rescue

posted this notice before we raided it.

Which means what, that that tipped

off the grower a raid was coming?

>> Yeah.

Only Homicide is saying they haven't found that notice.

>> Well what happened to it?

>> Either it was never there and Ferris is just covering

her ass and trying to throw the heat on Fire and Rescue.

Or Fire and Rescue snapped it up

when they went in afterwards.

>> Whoa. >> Yeah.

This is really gonna start a war if we're not careful.

>> Okay.

Okay, thanks.

Stay in touch.

Hey, let me know if you hear anything else, yeah?

>> Right.

>> I need a property title search

for the 500 block, Cobalt Street.

>> How's it going with that Citizen's Committee thing?

>> Hang on, I've got some more addresses for you.

Hang on, I'm still trying to track

down the ownership on these properties.

They're all numbered companies.

It's taking awhile, it's all very convoluted.

>> Okay, let me know.

Thank you.

>> Yeah, I need names, whatever you can give me

and I've got a few names you can cross-reference for me.

>> You wanted to see me, right?

>> Yeah. >> Why?

>> We've got a war about to blow up

between police and Fire and Rescue.

>> What do you mean?

>> Apparently there was a notice posted

on the grow op from Fire and Rescue.

It might've tipped the grower off,

maybe prompted him to arm himself.

>> Who's jurisdiction?

>> Downtown West.

>> Komori's Fire? >> Komori, yeah.

>> What's he saying?

>> Don't know yet, the problem is this notice has vanished.

It's gone with the wind, Fire and Rescue

is getting pretty steamed about the allegations but

the coroner's got a guy down there now, he tipped us off.

>> How many times do we have to go over this?

It's absolute bullshit.

>> Lou: So you never posted a notice down there?

>> I never issued a notice.

>> How many of the guys would've done this without your okay?

>> Okay, I write up the notices.

I never wrote one up, nobody down here did, okay?

Now I had a guy from Organized Crime down here

all morning putting us through this same bullshit.

What the hell's going on?

>> You guys were on the scene with the officers.

>> We went in to help out EMS, that's all.

>> So you don't think somebody might've seen it,

picked it up, taken it away?

>> No.

One of our guys, who's saying that?

>> Well of course they're gonna deny it.

But the fact is they were there

and they had the opportunity to grab up that notice.

>> If it was there in the first place.

>> Yeah, if it was there.

>> So you believe our Constable?

>> Well, I got no reason to disbelieve.

>> I mean Organized Crime interviewed her,

Homicide was in on it.

She stated she saw the notice.

>> This is Komori's jurisdiction, yes?

>> Yeah, Downtown West Hall

and he was on the scene.

>> So what's he saying?

>> Well, he swore up and down

to Organized Crime that he never issued a notice.

>> But? >> But

he told me last week to my face

that he was gonna take orders from the Mayor

and that the Mayor had come down to his hall

and told him to continue issuing notices to the grow op.

(knocking)

>> Excuse me, the Mayor's on line two.

Oh, he says it's urgent.

>> Dominic. >> What are you hearing?

>> The same thing you're hearing.

Fire and Rescue say they never posted a notice,

the Constable's saying she saw one.

>> I think we oughta get everybody down here for a meeting.

Let's just do that tomorrow morning, okay?

Get everybody down here in my office

and just calm the whole thing down.

>> I'll be there.

>> Dominic: Sam.

I need Komori on the line, who are you talking to?

>> The coroner says Komori's pissed.

He's talking to his lawyer.

>> All right.

>> Vera, get ahold of Organized Crime for me.

You can put 'em right through.

>> You've only got the boy's skeletal remains

to go by and there's no evidence of trauma

except a hairline fracture on the one boy's wrist.

>> Okay.

No evidence of violence?

>> There was a tooth missing from

the other child, front incisor.

That could have been the result of some blow I suppose.

But we didn't find that tooth at the scene.

>> Okay.

So then there's nothing in

your report to suggest a homicide, then?

>> Well I don't know about that.

I did find a thread of what has been analyzed

as rope on the ankle of the other boy.

That might suggest that he was bound at the ankles.

>> Oh yeah, okay, that's something.

Well, I'm gonna kick it over to Homicide based on that.

I know it's a stretch but I'm gonna go with it.

Thanks, Maria.

>> You're welcome. >> Take it easy.

>> You too. >> Hey Claire?

Did you hear from Chick yet?

>> I did, he's busy.

Apparently this grow op investigation

is keeping him running back and forth.

There's a Detective Kosmo gonna call you about it.

>> Perfect, Angela, great, what's this here?

>> It's the file on Mr. Dubreau.

I got the name of that street hustler

Mr. Dubreau claimed attacked him back in the early 90s.

>> Oh yeah, you got a contact for the hustler?

>> Uh-huh, his name is Manny Zappata.

He's working as a roofer.

He agreed to come in after work on Friday.

>> Great.

Actually you know, find out where

he's working and I'll go see him.

>> You got it. >> Fantastic.

>> Did you ask me to continue issuing notices?

No, you asked me to keep up the good work, period.

>> I didn't ask you to come down here to help cover my ass.

It's your ass I'm concerned about.

>> Okay, so no, I didn't issue a notice

on any grow op and no, none of my guys issued a notice.

Did we go into the house after the shooting

to help treat the officers on the scene?

Yes, we did.

Did we see a notice?

No.

Did we pick up a notice and make it disappear?

No. >> No?

I had to ask.

What do you think's going on here?

>> I think the police are trying to spin

the blame for a sloppy raid onto us

and onto me specifically for cooperating with you.

>> I don't think there's a conspiracy afoot here

but I decided I'm gonna hold a meeting.

A big powwow right here in the office.

Get everybody involved, now I want you to be there

and I want you to help me calm down the situation.

Will you promise to do that?

>> Yeah, well if I'm still working tomorrow, I'll be here.

>> You'll still be working.

I'm gonna leave a couple holes open

in the conversation and I want you

to jump right in there when I do, okay?

>> Yeah. >> Okay.

I'll see you tomorrow morning?

>> Tomorrow morning. >> All right.

Sleep well, okay? >> All right.

>> Check with Sam, he'll give you a time.

>> Thank you.

>> Okay, so far none of the names on

the Red Light Zone Citizen's Committee

website register as property owners on the stroll.

>> What about Mina?

What was the name? >> Mina Basra.

>> Yeah, she own

any property down there? >> No.

She's not on there, not yet.

Not unless she's behind one of those numbered companies.

Anyway,

they've been busy, they put an op-ed

in the paper, would you like to see it?

>> Am I gonna get aggravated? >> Yes, you will.

>> Then no. >> Okay.

>> Just keep digging.

What about those people that were

actually in the street the other night down there?

Any of them own property?

>> Nope, not so far.

>> Just keep digging.

>> Joe Friedland, are we ready?

>> Just give me five minutes.

>> Hi, Joe.

>> I was hustling in Boy's Town for about three years.

I've been in rehab for almost 10.

>> Okay, do you recall an

alleged incident with a Mr. Dubreau?

>> Yeah, but it wasn't alleged, it happened.

We were in the bar, he slipped something into my drink.

We went out to the car,

I started to feel like I was gonna pass out.

>> You're certain it was Dubreau?

>> Positive, the guy had a rap.

Everyone knew who he was, knew what he was doing.

>> You say you rode in his car there

but I don't have that written in my report.

>> I didn't say his car.

That's why all that shit got thrown out.

He proved that his car was in the shop that night.

They threw it all out but it wasn't his car.

It was the other guy's car.

>> The other guy, what other guy?

That's not written here in the report either.

>> That's what I'm telling you.

His lawyer shat all over everything that I said.

>> His lawyer, you got a name there?

>> Manny: Norton.

>> Norton.

>> Manny: Tall skinny guy, big time lawyer.

>> Yeah.

Okay, can we get back to talk about

what was going on in the car there, can we?

>> Sure.

I'm in the car, I'm in the passenger side.

I figure I'm gonna do him in the car like usual

and all of a sudden, this other guy jumps in next to me.

I'm passing out but I start fighting

'cause I didn't sign off for no gang bang

and all of a sudden the other guy puts a knife to my throat.

>> His knife?

>> Yeah, his knife, I never carried a knife.

>> Okay, go on.

>> Okay, I start kicking and fighting

and my adrenaline must've kicked in

because I got out of there and I got back into the bar.

The bartender, he calls the cops.

They show up and I'm passed out from

whatever was in the drink and they take me downtown.

The whole thing was bullshit.

>> Okay, this other guy, you know who he was?

>> Yeah, he was a cop.

That's why the whole thing went sideways.

They cleaned everything up

for him and I didn't have a chance.

>> The other guy was a cop, how do you know he was a cop?

>> Because he was a street narc and he had arrested me twice.

>> Really, you got a name there?

>> I can't remember his name but

I'm sure it'd be on my arrest record.

>> Yeah, yeah, it would be.

>> What'd Dubreau do this time, did he kill somebody?

>> You just quit staring down at that lawn.

You're staying in that park for awhile.

>> Yeah, you got that worked out with the port?

>> I will have, you got everything you need down there?

>> Yeah, I think we're getting there.

>> Because whatever you need, just let me know

because I want you people staying down there for awhile.

I want you to be comfortable.

>> Well, we could use a doctor.

Got quite a few ex-mental patients down there.

>> Get a nurse to come by there

once a day, that's not a big trick.

Anybody needs a doctor, there's that guy

second floor there at Man Hanstens.

>> Okay.

So I'm assuming that we're a pawn in some

game you're playing with the Feds over this park.

>> Game?

We want that park, the city needs that park

and you're in that park and it's just a happy coincidence.

>> Okay, so what do you need from me?

>> I need a well-run camp.

>> I can do that.

>> I gotta have those drug dealers outta there.

>> I can do that too.

>> No violence.

>> Can you guarantee that?

>> If you've got a well-run camp down there and it's clean

and it's safe, the drug dealers are all outta there,

yeah, I'll keep the police outta there.

>> All right, how long we gonna be there?

>> Dominic: Until I can squeeze

some money outta the Feds for housing.

>> Oh yeah, that long, huh?

>> I'm hoping to get everybody housed by the spring.

>> I look forward to that.

>> You gotta get the drug dealers outta there.

>> I can handle it.

(sirens blaring)

>> Mick: This is your lucky day.

>> Oh yeah, what's going on?

>> This here is the arrest record of Manny Zappata.

>> Who is?

>> Manny Zappata is a street hustler

who brought charges against James Dubreau.

James Dubreau is a developer who has a taste

for young boys and he was identified by a witness

as one of the group of men who had raped him.

>> I'm not familiar with any of this.

>> It was back in the 90s, right?

>> Late 80s, early 90s.

I'm closing in on a pedophile ring.

I think there might be a homicide in there.

Here, take a look.

Manny Zappata was arrested a couple times

during the early 90s by a young street narc

who according to Zappata was along for the ride

when James Dubreau had drugged him and the same narc,

again according to Zappata, held a knife

to his throat in an attempted kidnapping.

>> That never went anywhere?

>> Mick: It never went anywhere.

>> Okay so, what am I looking for?

>> The arresting officer, take a look at that name there.

>> Holy shit.

Holy shit, it's Brian Curtis.

>> Mick: Yeah, we're going all the way with this one.

>> Investigator: So now is this kid willing to testify?

>> Well he's already given them statements

but it all got chucked out, but it doesn't matter.

We're gonna go after this one and we're gonna bury 'em all.

>> Brian Curtis.

Jesus.

>> Brian: Hey, Richard.

>> Brian.

How have you been?

>> Pretty good, you?

>> Not bad.

So what have they got you doing?

>> Oh, back workin' the streets.

It's a living, so what are we doing here?

>> You remember James?

>> Dubreau, sure.

He's doing well with the real estate going through the roof.

>> He wants to take a meeting.

>> Set it up.

>> Lloyd: Mr. Mayor.

>> How you doing, Lloyd?

>> This is a good day.

>> Is it?

>> Yeah, I sealed the deal.

>> Good for you.

>> I got myself a race track

and you got yourself all those jobs.

>> I appreciate the confidence

that you're showing me and congratulations.

>> Thank you very much. >> On the race track.

>> So the slots are a done deal, yes?

>> Not done, done, but we're getting there.

Beautiful.

>> So what's the hang up, who's the hold out?

>> Oh, no hold outs.

>> Come over here, this fish is fantastic, by the way.

>> Dominic: The crab looks good.

>> Yeah, the crab's good.

So when is the vote on the slots gonna happen?

>> Well, that's not for certain.

We may have to go to referendum on this.

>> Excuse me, referendum?

>> Might just be public hearings.

>> Lloyd: Now just hang on.

That was not part of the arrangement.

>> I can't guarantee a straight vote.

The community's gonna want to see what kinda

benefits they might enjoy with you owning the race track.

They're also gonna want to know--

>> What's your expectation on that?

>> Jobs for the community.

>> Well jeez, jobs for the community.

It's all the same thing with you.

Okay, jobs for the community, what else?

>> Some traffic calming measures.

Gonna have to talk about those

for the local surrounding areas.

>> Fine. >> It's not a big deal.

>> Fine, fine.

Okay, what else?

>> You gotta stick to your promise

that you're not gonna flip this race track,

that you're gonna make a go of it down there.

>> You've got my promise.

>> Okay.

Thank you. >> Good.

>> All right.

>> So sit down, you gonna have the crab?

>> I think so. >> Okay.

>> I'm starving.

>> Oh by the way, I just got the call.

The Prime Minister's coming to town.

>> Is he, when's he coming?

>> A couple weeks.

We're planning a fishing trip, you should come with us.

>> Really?

Sure, I'm not much a fisherman though.

>> Neither is he but he likes

to be a regular Joe every now and again.

We'll go up the coast, have a few drinks, shoot the breeze.

Maybe we can talk about the Red Zone.

I hear you're having a few troubles down there.

>> Nothing we can't handle, when's he coming?

>> He'll be staying with us, I'm not sure, I'll call you.

So you want the crab?

>> Okay. >> Okay.

I'll have the halibut please

and his worship will have the crab.

So this referendum thing, is that necessary?

>> I don't want you to get overexcited about it, okay?

Nothing's for certain here, we have to test the waters.

>> Please just be cooperative.

>> I didn't do anything, I don't even know why I'm here.

>> Just answer the questions

politely and don't lose your temper.

>> Whatever I say, you back me up.

>> What's that mean?

>> It means that you're my dad

and you have to back me up.

>> Thanks both of you for coming in.

>> We're happy to help any way we can.

>> Inspector: Good, are you aware

of the incident that happened down in Stanley Park?

A young man was killed down there.

>> Yeah, I heard about it.

>> Yeah, what'd you hear?

>> Daughter: A guy got beaten up, that's about it.

>> Some students down at your school

were talking about in the schoolyard.

>> Who? >> I can't get into that.

But your name was mentioned. >> Who mentioned it?

>> I really can't get into that.

What I need to know is what your might've heard?

>> I told you.

Some gay guy was coming on to somebody.

They didn't like it, so he got a beating.

>> He was coming on to this person?

>> Yeah.

>> Do you know the name of this guy he was coming on to?

>> It's a guy from a different school, I don't know.

I wasn't really that interested.

>> Father: He's asking for a name.

>> He's talking to me.

>> Inspector: You know a name?

>> I don't know a name.

Why am I in here?

I don't know anything.

I wasn't involved in anything.

Can we just go home?

>> I've just got a couple more questions for you.

Where were you on the evening of Wednesday the 13th?

>> I was at home watching football with my dad, right dad?

>> That's right.

>> Okay, and what time did you go to bed?

>> Who cares?

>> All right, where's your bedroom in the house?

>> Where's my bedroom? >> Yeah.

>> It's in the basement.

What does this have to do with anything?

This is so stupid.

>> When did you go out that night?

>> I didn't go out that night, I was at home all night.

>> Okay.

>> Who said I knew something, what did they say?

>> He can't answer that. >> Shut up.

Who said I knew something?

>> Your dad's right, I can't reveal that.

>> Well,

somebody's getting their ass kicked.

>> This little Citizen's Committee is a hall of mirrors.

I haven't found a single member

that owns any property in the stroll, none.

>> It's a front. >> I don't know.

>> It's a front.

>> You know who does own a whack

of dirt down there is Billie Simms.

>> We know that already.

You gotta keep on digging until you find something in there.

You're so good at this. >> All right.

>> Just keep going, you'll get through.

Thank you.

Sam. >> Boss?

>> Dominic: Did you ever make

that call to the Prime Minister's office?

>> Yeah, I did, no answer yet.

>> He's comin' out here, he's staying with Lloyd Manning.

He's coming in two weeks.

So Lloyd's saying that he wants to introduce me.

I don't want to walk through that door with him.

>> Sam: No, you don't want that.

>> All I want him to do is just take a little

walk with me down, see the stroll

just so he can see what we're up to.

>> Sam: I'm not sure he's gonna want

to make a public statement like that.

>> I don't want an entourage.

I just want him to take a little ride with me through the

neighborhood so he can see how we're gonna spend his money.

>> Okay, we'll I'm still waiting on the call

but I'll let him know that's what you want.

>> Perfect, how's the meeting going for tomorrow?

>> Good, everybody's in.

>> Beautiful. >> Yep.

Dennis Phillip's daughter is getting married, by the way.

>> So?

>> The wedding's in the Caribbean, Saint Kitts.

He's gonna be gone a week, 10 days.

If he's on holiday, he won't be around for the slots vote.

This is next week.

>> We gotta get our ducked up, lined up.

>> Sam: All right, okay, I'm working on it.

>> Dominic: I want that vote to happen.

(anxious electronic music)

>> Hey, hey, what's the hush hush?

>> The guys are getting kinda

pissed about what's been going on here.

>> Well what?

Lay it out for me.

>> They know what your guys are saying.

That we posted the notice and tipped the guy at the grow.

>> Yeah, yeah, well I heard that happened.

>> That's bullshit, Charlie.

>> Well, it's under investigation.

They'll decide if it's bullshit or not.

>> It's bullshit.

We don't like what's happening.

If this keeps up, it's gonna get real nasty.

>> Okay, so you know for sure it didn't happen that way?

>> I know Komori and if he says he didn't

issue any notices, he didn't issue any.

>> Okay, 'cause we got a Constable who says she saw it.

Maybe it came from one of Komori's guys.

Maybe they did it on their own.

>> Come on, Charlie, we're getting scapegoated here.

It's way out of line.

What happened was your Constable there

went in completely on her own and got her partner killed.

>> You don't know that. >> I do know that.

That Constable came by our hall

a couple weeks ago and threatened my Captain,

told him not to put up any more notices.

>> Yeah, you know that for sure?

>> I was there, I saw it.

This shit better land on the right doorstep.

>> Are you threatening me now?

>> If you want Fire and Rescue to get

behind your campaign against Cross Training,

you better take the heat on this.

(car alarm blaring)

>> Dominic: Oh my.

Hello.

>> Hello, sir.

>> How you doing?

>> Good. >> Pull up a stool.

>> Nice to see you. >> Nice to see you.

I've got the Prime Minister coming here in a couple weeks.

Now what I wanna do is I wanna take him down there,

down to the stroll and let him

see for himself what's happening.

>> Well, he's not gonna see much, is he?

>> I know, that's why I need your help.

We gotta do what we can do here.

We gotta make it look like it's a going concern, eh?

>> Can you get the cops outta there?

>> We're working on it.

>> Stop the neighbors from harassing the girls?

>> Oh, they're going away.

>> Good. >> Yeah.

>> Okay.

Well,

let me see what I can do.

>> Yeah?

You're still backing me up on this?

>> Yes. >> Love ya.

(light anxious ensemble music)

>> Inspector: So how you doing?

>> Hanging on.

>> Yeah, it doesn't get tougher

than what you're going through.

>> I don't know what I'd do if I lost this job.

>> You're gonna come out on top on this.

I think there is a way we can work this out.

>> Joe: We got a problem with

drug dealers down there at the squat.

>> Friend: Yeah I know, we gotta deal with that.

I think we just gotta clear 'em

outta there is what we gotta do.

These apples look good.

There's a lot of mental patients we gotta deal with too.

We gotta make sure they see the nurse when she comes down.

>> Yeah I noticed, well what does the Mayor say about that?

>> He says we're good 'til spring.

I don't know, so far he's sticking to his word.

>> Politicians, you never know, right?

>> Joe: Yeah, still,

the main thing is we gotta clear those drug dealers out.

>> Well exactly how do you plan on doing that?

>> Just go talk to 'em, you know?

Just reason with 'em, just say "Look,

"this is not appropriate, you can't be doing that here."

>> Yeah, and when that doesn't work, what do you do?

Turn the sprinklers on 'em?

Call out the dogs? >> Hope it doesn't get to that.

>> Okay, I can't be having this, okay?

This can't continue.

I can't have members from police and fire at each

other's throats over a tragic death in the line of duty.

That's just absolute bullshit and we gotta put a cap on it.

>> I don't think you're gonna get

any disagreement from anyone here.

Careful, okay, appreciate your support.

Hey Sam.

>> Sam: Yeah?

>> Go.

Chief.

>> Mr. Mayor.

>> I appreciate you coming over on such short notice.

Okay guys, this is what I wanna do, okay?

We wanna get two guys from each Union to form a committee

and that committee's gonna write a report on how

we can work hand in hand here together to try and get this

marijuana grow op situation under control once and for all.

It's been an effective program,

this latest tragic death notwithstanding

but I don't want to hear anything about that.

Not here, not today, okay?

>> So what's your proposal?

>> I say we go back to where

we were two months ago with this.

Fire and Rescue, they get a tip,

they go post a notice and they're backed up by a patrol car.

>> Under who's command?

>> Joint command. >> I can't go for that.

We need to have investigations, thorough

investigations before we do any posting or follow-ups.

>> Dominic: Yeah, yeah, we have to have investigations.

>> If we wait for investigations, it won't happen.

We get tips from neighbors, hydro people, the postman.

That's why it's effective.

>> If we don't have the investigations,

I'm not gonna send my officers on those calls.

I'm not interested in going in on a whim.

>> It's not like we're doing entries.

We're tacking Notices of Inspection on the doors.

>> Yeah, we know where that led.

>> I got a possible solution here.

Why don't we do it like this, okay?

If Fire and Rescue gets a tip,

they run that address by you guys at VPD.

If there's a flag on that address,

it's part of some ongoing investigation,

I don't care, then it's a no-serve house.

But this is what the committee's for.

We get two guys from each of the Unions and we're

gonna write a report on how we're gonna do all this

and I want that report, I need it by Monday morning.

>> It might be a little quick.

>> Okay, by Friday, okay?

Friday, that's the latest.

We gotta get this happening.

No problems, good, get outta here.

Goodbye.

I think that's gonna work.

That's a nice looking document.

>> Sam: Good meeting.

>> I'm impressed.

You should make sure the media hears about this, eh?

>> Okay, you know what you wanna say?

>> Yeah.

Okay, we're part of a combined effort here

between Fire and Rescue and the police service

to do something about the marijuana

grow operations and busting,

say it's part of some kind of overall strategy

that we're looking into, information sharing.

Yeah, write that out.

>> Just got off the phone with the Port Authority.

They're not going for the Crab Park Squat.

>> What? >> You need to call.

She says they're getting an injunction to clear the park.

If they're not outta there by tomorrow noon,

the horsemen are coming in and taking down the tents.

>> Shit, goddammit.

I've gotta call.

>> We should let Joe Friedland know.

>> Just hold off on telling Friedland.

Maybe I can get this thing sorted out yet.

>> Information sharing between two services.

>> Yeah.

>> I don't like the way this is going.

>> Sounds like Cross Training to me.

>> Thanks.

Do you mind getting my boots and gloves from the car?

They're in the trunk. >> Sure.

>> Where's the Inspector? >> Just arrived.

>> Chick: All right, thanks.

>> I thought we should poke around a little,

get another look for this Fire and Rescue notice.

>> Yeah, well we went over it

pretty good the first couple of times.

>> Normally they would've stapled it to the door here.

>> That's the way I've seen it done, yeah.

>> Do they look like staples to you?

>> Staples?

Yeah.

>> Okay, we have staples in the door.

That could be from the notice.

>> You wanna collect evidence, we should call Forensics.

>> Let's do that, give 'em a call.

We'll take a look around while they're on their way.

>> Brian Curtis was doing undercover buy and busts

on Grandview Street right out of the Academy.

>> Mick: What year was that?

>> '92.

'93.

>> Excuse me, it's Chick, he says it's urgent.

>> Okay.

Yeah, hey Chick.

>> We need to contact his old partners.

>> Well that would be the street crew.

>> You're breaking up, what, what?

>> He just found staples on the grow op basement door.

It looks like a notice could've been posted.

>> Nobody picked up on that before.

>> Yeah.

I got a feeling something's going on.

I think it'd be better if you had somebody over here.

>> Okay, just hang in there until I send somebody over.

See ya.

>> See ya.

>> Hey Lou, Lou?

>> Lou: Yeah?

>> Can you get on over to the grow op

as soon as you can, cover Chick's ass for me?

>> Okay, no problem.

>> Are you familiar with OCU Inspector Arkin?

>> Sure.

He's our go-to guy when things need special handling.

>> Solid citizen?

>> Far as I know, yeah.

>> Okay.

>> How we doing?

>> Billie: Very well, thank you, yourself?

>> Pretty good except I got a huge problem

down there in the Red Zone and I'm gonna need your help.

>> What's the situation?

>> You know, we made a lot of concessions

to you guys down there when we were starting this thing up.

Well, you know that. >> I do.

Of course and as far as I know,

all the concessions were pretty much short term tax breaks

which are nice but nothing really in the long term.

And we've been trying for a very

long time to get development into that area.

>> Okay, well what we're gonna have to do

is we're gonna have to reach some kind

of a compromise here because I need a couple

of years to establish the Red Zone down there

in that area and it's occurred to me that any kind

of new housing development down there isn't necessarily

incompatible with the existence of that stroll.

>> I don't know about that.

I mean we can't really expect people to buy

a new town home with a Red Zone on their doorstep.

>> Okay, I don't,

shit man, I don't know how to really say this.

I'm starting to feel that there's a basic value

disconnect between you and your group in the city here.

>> How so?

>> For a long time, you've been a major supporter

of AIDS awareness and HIV educational programs.

You've done a lot of wonderful work and now here

is a practical application of what the city believes in

which is harm reduction but yet your project

that you're driving threatens its existence.

>> Well that's why I'm here.

I was under the impression that

we were gonna try and explore some kind of fix.

>> What does that mean?

>> We have a number of other areas

in Vancouver we'd like to develop.

>> That's great, I'm so glad to hear that.

Great, I'm happy now, let's discuss that.

>> We have a number of Heritage properties

in the downtown core that we'd like to swap

density allowances for with other areas

and we also have the old sugar refinery

that we'd like to have re-zoned for development.

>> Okay, hold it right there before we discuss that.

Do you still have that card?

>> Mm hmm. >> Show her this card.

Take a look at this.

>> Citizen's Committee to Stop the Red Light Zone.

>> Yeah, it's a completely bogus group.

There's nobody involved with that Committee

that lives down in that neighborhood,

that owns any businesses down in that neighborhood.

I'd appreciate it if you could make a phone call for me

and just make them all go away, could you do that?

>> I'm not responsible for this.

Whoever put this together did it under their own initiative.

>> No, no, no, no, no, okay?

Now this is just a bullshit tactic right there, okay?

A front group.

Billie Simms, I'm surprised at you, I really am.

A front group.

That move is, I don't know, I would just say cheesy.

>> All right, I'll tell you what.

I'll see what I can do.

>> Okay, appreciate that, now what was it about

that sugar refinery, what were you thinking there?

>> Billie: We are moving the plant to Richmond

and we want to develop the old site.

>> How many jobs are moving to Richmond?

>> 300.

>> Uh-oh.

(anxious piano music)

>> You find something?

>> Yeah.

It's the notice.

Christ, how'd they miss that?

(distant sirens blaring)

>> They found the Fire and Rescue notice at the grow op.

>> Okay, when did this go down?

>> You're kidding me.

Five days after the incident,

they go back in and they find it?

(anxious clanging tones)

(light mid tempo drumbeat)
