G-O-L-D-I-E

1 Units in the fourth, we got a caller

who says his neighbor won't return his lawnmower.

Caller is at 1266 Mohawk.

Lawnmower is apparently at 1272...

Units in the vicinity.

_

Units in the third, got reports

of the boys selling on the corner again,

Kedzie and St. Louis.

Squad 11-47, do you got a description?

Copy, 46-20.

Robbery in progress. RXW Drugs.

1527 Pulaski. Multiple tickets.

Shot fired by the pharmacy. GSW reported.

50-21 George. Hold me down as responding.

Plain clothes. I'm 10-99.

Copy, 50-21 George.

50-21 George, on scene. The call is bona fide.

Keep the cars rolling.

Go, go, go, go!

Stay down, stay down.

Keep your head down.

Aah!

It's OK. It's OK. It's OK.

Keep your head down and stay quiet.

Police. Drop the weapon.

- No, I can't do that, sir. - Drop it or I drop you.

No. Now look, I am reaching...

- No. - Slowly.

- Don't do that. - Slowly.

Stop.

Lenny Gibson, master sergeant, 3rd Cav.

All right, Lenny, Jay Halstead, Rangers.

Put it down now. Slide it over.

Sir, I am a good piece of gear.

Slide it over, Lenny. Let's go.

Now, Lenny.

Now.

All right.

All right.

Here.

I engaged two men, winged one.

They ran in there.

There might be civilians in there.

It's been a fight.

OK, Lenny, I'm gonna move forward.

You clear everybody out of here behind me

and then you get out too. Do you understand?

- Copy you. - Let's move. Go.

Stay back! Stay back!

¿Lucia? Lucia?

- My vida. - Papi.

No! Stay there!

Jesus, man, what the hell were you thinking?

They would have killed her. Go get those pricks.

No, I'm staying here. Stay put.

Go get them!

Keep pressure. Stay put, all right?

I'm good. Just go, go, go.

50-21, I got shots fired behind the RXW.

Two offenders fleeing in a blue sedan, older model, no plate.

They're going northbound on Franklin now.

These men are wanted on homicide.

They're armed and extremely dangerous.

What did the paramedics say?

Baby's gonna be OK.

They're checking her for shock.

- You sure you're OK? - Yeah.

This guy Lenny,

he just took two bullets for her like it was nothing.

It was like a war zone.

These guys unloaded, and then Lenny just... he moved.

I haven't seen anything like that since I was overseas.

Voight's here.

- You good? - Yeah, I'm fine.

- BOLO's out. - Good.

Hey.

Went down just like a good Samaritan said.

OK, so there's no audio,

but it looks like our offenders make some sort of demand.

The pharmacist fights back.

All hell breaks loose.

All right, now, keep your eye on the other guy.

- That shot came from Lenny? - Yeah.

Caught him completely off guard.

That's how they ended up in the storage area.

If Lenny hadn't engaged...

More innocent people would have died.

Yeah.

Yo, yo.

I got a witness who was at the pharmacy the whole time

saying she saw the whole thing.

The offenders are looking for pseudoephedrine.

They're cooking meth.

That's why the pharmacist keeps it in the vault.

She wouldn't open it for them, so...

All right, so get on the horn with Narcotics. Check their radar.

Anyone with a meth sheet.

And one of the offenders got shot,

so have the lab run any blood

that doesn't match the pharmacist.

- Could pop. - All right.

Lenny Gibson... he gonna make it?

Med says touch and go.

Well, get down there, see what he can offer.

Mr. Gibson is on plenty of meds,

but he's alert right now.

Family here?

His wife's been here.

Went home to get some stuff for him, check on the kids.

Some friends from Mr. Gibson's army days

kind of keeping watch, I guess.

Go on in.

Hey.

- Jay, right? - Mm-hmm.

How are you feeling?

Oh, man.

Like five bucks.

This is my partner, Detective Upton.

Hey, Lenny. I heard a lot about you.

You did a real good thing.

We just have a couple questions for you

to help us catch these guys.

Fire away.

All right, before it all went down,

did you hear them say anything?

Did they have an accent, anything like that?

No, no.

I was on the other side of the store.

I was...

I was just grabbing a pop.

And then I...

I heard the shots, and it was,

well, you know, game on.

Did you see their faces without the masks?

No.

Any descriptors at all?

No.

I'm sorry.

It was too fast.

Hey, don't be sorry, all right?

Just hang tough. Rest up.

Hey.

Let's do it again sometime.

You bet.

Excuse me.

I'm Nolan, Lenny's buddy.

Did you find these sons of bitches?

We're working on it.

You serve together?

All did a three-year hitch together in the sandbox.

Me too, 75th Rangers. Korengal mostly.

Hooah.

You all still active duty?

AGR.

Hooked in with Joint Forces, Narcotics ops.

Multinational cartel targets.

- Lenny too? - Nah.

But he's the most decorated of all of us.

Defused IEDs for our unit.

But he did his time.

He did it well.

Thanks for looking after his family.

This is two months ago in Brighton Park.

This is two weeks later down in Chatham.

Robbery-homicide worked both of them.

Same height, weight, build.

Same freaky mask, same weapons.

Same target... pseudoephedrine.

They boosted 30,000 cold medicine pills

in these two robberies alone.

Oh, so this latest robbery was an escalation?

Yeah, so they started out

by hitting pharmaceutical transport trucks

on the way to the big box stores.

But last month, the stores hired off-duty cops to escort those trucks.

So this time, they waited for the stuff to be delivered.

Escorts left, heat died down. Then they hit it.

But we can't move yet on any of the previous robberies

on our BOLO, witnesses.

Just got a call.

Guy at a junkyard in Fuller Park saw the RXW job on TV.

Claims somebody just ditched our getaway car.

- Thanks, Trudy. - Yeah.

Go.

Every day is one big blur of crap on tires.

But a 12-year-old Corolla with a jangly bumper?

That rang a bell from what I'd seen on the news.

Do you know the guy who dropped it?

Just some guy.

- Get a name? - No, we don't take names.

Want to get rid of your clunker?

We take your clunker. That's the deal.

No, I tried to stall him for a bit, but he got all cagey.

Must have left about 10 minutes ago.

You got cameras around here?

Don't believe in that big-brother stuff.

Car should be right up here around the corner.

Smoke.

Oh, no!

That's the car.

That's the car! That's the car!

- Back up. - Jesus.

- The whole place could go up. - Back up.

Back up!

50-21 Henry, emergency.

We need CFD to 1314 Vienna, southeast corner of the yard.

- We got a vehicle on fire. - Copy.

Jay, whoa.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hey!

- Jay? - Hailey, we got to try.

There's probably evidence in there.

Come on. Leave it.

Hey, leave it. Leave it.

Get out! Let's go!

So he just walked off after he got cagey with you?

Did he catch a ride with someone?

- Was someone waiting for him? - I don't know.

He was there, and then he wasn't.

Anything's gonna help us. Was he fat?

Was he skinny? Did he have a tattoo?

He was just a basic white dude, I guess.

- Tall, I guess, thin. - All right, thanks.

We're gonna give you a call.

Well, if there's no cameras on the street out front,

there's no telling if anybody ever saw this dude.

He could be far as hell by now.

Hey, techs think they found a good print

on the engine block.

Print survived the fire.

It looks like our crew left it there

when they were carving VINs off the getaway car.

They're running it now.

The print on the getaway car is a dead match

to Calvin Morrell, 27.

He's got a long sheet, minor stuff.

But the kicker? He's hooked to meth.

6'4". A beanpole.

Strong match for the offender Lenny Gibson winged.

Active bench warrant for his arrest.

Scoop him up.

There it is.

- Ready? - Yep.

Whoa, whoa.

Calvin Morrell!

Chicago PD!

In here.

Gun!

Hands out. Hands out.

Drop the pipe. Drop it!

Is this about that warrant?

You're under arrest for armed robbery, murder,

and the attempted murder of a Chicago police officer.

What?

What the hell are you talking about?

I'm not saying I'm a saint.

I'm just saying I've got nothing to do

with a robbery at a drugstore.

Your prints are all over the car

that was used in the robbery.

A woman was killed. Another man's in the ICU.

Do you understand the stakes that we're talking about?

You're looking at murder, Calvin.

Look. I stole that car, OK?

And then I sold it, like, two weeks ago

just to make rent.

OK, sure. Who'd you sell it to?

- Come on. - Who'd you sell it to?

I answer that, it's a death sentence.

This guy...

he'd beat me to death.

Preliminary arson report on the getaway car.

It's real thin, nothing to go on.

- Thanks. - How's it going in there?

The problem is the car theft alone.

That's your third strike. You're a habitual offender.

And now, you're downstate for life.

What?

I didn't have anything to do with the robbery.

It was just the car.

You're right, man. It's a bad way to get life.

So I'm gonna give you a way out, OK?

I'm gonna trash the warrant we used for today.

I'm gonna drop the charges for the car.

I'll expunge your record.

All you got to do is give me that name.

Jay, you can't make the promise you just made in there.

We can't keep it. You know that.

I have zero intention keeping that promise.

- It worked, though. - Yeah.

- Until it gets thrown out. - It won't.

You don't know that.

Morrell sold the car to this man, Benjamin Watt.

Pride of Rogers Park. No sheet.

He's a person of interest in our narcotics investigation,

targeting meth linked to dozens of ODs.

The problem is they were never able to charge him.

But he's a great physical match

for offender number one, the guy who shot Lenny.

Morrell ID Watt by name?

And in a six pack. This is our guy.

He looks good for it, but we have

zero actionable evidence tying Watt to that RXW.

- None. - All right. Then let's find some.

Dig in to Watt. Sit on his ass.

Shadow him.

This just in: according to Torres,

Benjamin Watt has just arrived at the gym.

DEA's a dry well.

All right, thanks.

Well, my CI says we're on the right path.

West Garfield, Logan Square.

Benjamin Watt is the candyman,

but he's got nothing for us to jump into.

Hey, what's going on? What are we doing down here?

I looked through Ben Watt's cell transactions.

Found something?

Something you're not gonna like.

What?

Two hours before the RXW job,

Watt sent $400...

to Lenny Gibson.

I don't think he's just a good Samaritan.

I think he's in on the robbery.

You said you were picking up a pop?

Yeah, that's right.

Had you paid for it yet when everything happened?

Had you opened it?

No.

Why are we talking about pop?

Because they keep the pop in a display case next to the pharmacy.

And that's a completely different part of the store

than you were in when you engaged the robbers.

Maybe I did pay. I don't know.

Lenny?

Come on, man.

No more lies, please.

I'm dying.

Don't say that.

No, I am. I can feel it.

Please.

Please don't tell my family,

my kids, what I did.

Please.

Just tell us what happened.

I was just lookout...

To tell him when the cold medicine was unloaded.

They swore no one would get hurt.

When I saw him shoot that pharmacist...

That, I couldn't take.

I did the right thing when it counted.

Didn't I do that?

Who hired you? Who are the other robbers?

Was it him?

Lenny? Lenny?

- Help! Help! - We need some help in here.

Help! Just hang on.

Hang on, man. Hang on.

Give us space to keep him alive.

- Lenny! Lenny! Lenny! Lenny! - No, come on. Come on.

- We got to let them work. - Out, out, out. We got him.

- What's happening? Lenny! - We got to let them work.

I'll call Voight.

What? About what?

About Lenny.

He just confessed to being the lookout.

We need to get a warrant.

We need to search his house, his phone.

He must have alerted the rest of the crew

when the pills arrived; so we get something like that,

we get Watt, and then we can make the case.

No, no.

No? What do you mean no?

Hailey, he's dying.

We can't take his name too.

That's not your call.

One bad act doesn't make you a bad person.

You and I both know that.

What?

Jay, can I talk to you for a second, please?

What's going on with you? This isn't you.

What isn't?

Everything lately.

Skirting evidence,

lying to me, no-knocks,

making bad deals in the box,

you and Voight, you pulling away from me...

all of it.

I don't know what's changed or what's going on with you.

I don't know what to do,

but I'm here, and I want to help.

Halstead.

OK.

OK.

Thanks.

Lenny's dead.

That's it.

Hailey, he gave his life for that woman at the scene.

We got nothing more that we can take from him.

And we can make the case another way.

So let's do that.

Come on.

All right, what did we get from Ballistics?

No match for the drugstore slugs.

And no shots fired during the earlier robberies.

All right, what about the ping order on Watt's cell?

Sorry, we got nothing on GPS.

They must have used burners for this job.

All right, Watt bought that getaway car.

That is receipt of stolen property.

Pick them up on that.

Then we'll make him for the charges that matter.

I tried that, boss.

ASA said that we have zero evidence

that Watt knew that the car was stolen.

I got two dead civilians

and 30,000 pills out there

just killing people all over Chicago.

So drill down.

Find the thing that makes this case.

We might have another one.

Damn. Drugstore?

Elixir Pharmacy, Archer Heights.

Shots fired. Civilians down.

What do you got?

Two offenders, armed, demanded pills.

Pharmacist balked.

They shot some poor old lady right in front of them.

Lady was buying batteries for her hearing aids.

Pseudoephedrine?

What?

The pills they were after?

Yeah, that's it.

Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue.

Pharmacist turned over the pills so no one else got hurt.

Bad guys took off that way.

Sounds like this guy got in the way, so they took him out too.

- They were wearing masks? - Yeah, that's right.

White plastic mask with hoodies.

How do you know that?

I don't get it.

You know, we worked the hell out of this thing,

and it's the same deal we had before.

Nobody saw their faces.

We don't even have enough for a BOLO on the getaway car.

They're either the best in the business

or the luckiest pricks on the planet.

For all we know, we could have

cracked this thing and saved two lives.

- You don't know that's true. - You don't know it's not.

You need to secure the warrant on Lenny, or I will.

It's the right thing to do.

The right thing?

OK, these guys aren't gonna hit again today.

Just give me a few hours.

I'm gonna find a way to work it.

OK.

Nolan?

Jay Halstead.

You still standing watch, huh?

Something like that.

After Lenny went, I figured I'd stick around

for a few more days and see what Lorenza needs.

Yeah.

This is Lenny's accounting system.

Their whole life in this box.

Trying to make sense of it, so I can get Lenny's life insurance moving.

I'm sorry Lenny's gone, man.

Imagine I know why you're here.

You knew he was involved in the robbery?

No.

I knew he was in pain.

I know when people are in pain,

sometimes they do things they may not otherwise do.

Lenny came home rough from there.

He couldn't hold down a job, couldn't pay the bills.

I couldn't get him cleared to work with us.

The electric got cut, daycare bills unpaid.

I think he got desperate.

Look, if you do this,

the army will say Lenny's death was due to misconduct.

Lenny's death was due to misconduct.

And once the army makes that official,

this family,

they'll lose everything...

his pension, his life insurance.

You know what'll happen to them.

Lenny was a good man, an honorable man.

He just got chewed up.

Lenny was involved with the robbery?

Yes.

Listen, I need you to unlock Lenny's phone,

his account to his computer, his entire life for me...

but just for me.

What does that mean?

It means I'm gonna keep Lenny's name out of this.

You're allowed to do that?

Damn it.

It's Benjamin Watt.

Driver's gotta be the second offender.

All right. Go get him out of there. I'll handle the driver.

Oh, hey.

Hey.

Excuse me. I'm sorry to bother you.

Hey, get the hell out of here.

Hey, I'm lost.

Look, I'm just looking for this diner.

It's Pat's or Matt's or something.

- Supposed to be around here. - What?

You move, you die.

You understand?

Just nod.

Good.

OK, put your hand on the wheel real slow.

Aah!

Call it in.

Hailey, we got to move fast.

Call it in right now.

50-21 Henry.

Go with your traffic.

My partner, 50-21 George,

asked me to roll the crime lab to 216 Highway 49.

Apparent homicide victim. Multiple puncture wounds.

Copy.

Where is the other guy, the driver?

He's cuffed to the car.

Squad, we got one in custody. We're gonna need transport.

Be advised this is an ongoing confidential investigation.

50-21 is on the scene and has command.

Copy that. Making notifications.

OK.

OK.

OK, in the course of our investigation,

we obtained credible information

that the robbery crew was using this location as a stash house

and a cooking lab.

Upon arrival,

we observed suspicious activity.

- Uh-huh. - A suspected rip.

Detective Halstead tailed a suspect inside.

Heard a struggle.

Discovered the man on the ground bleeding out.

Uh-huh.

And Detective Halstead was unable to give chase

because he had to stop and render aid.

The victim died.

Suspicious suspect made good his escape.

Identity unknown.

We recovered stolen meds, cooking lab.

Got one in custody.

That's good.

That's good. No holes, no fat.

Jay?

Jay!

Jay, are you getting this?

Jay?

Jay, we got to be in agreement here.

We're doing it again.

What?

- We're doing it again. - Listen to me.

We do not have a lot of time.

Now give me the knife. Let's go.

What the hell am I doing?

Jay, give him your knife.

Listen, you got to dust yourself off,

get yourself in check.

We got to go.

Jay, it's gonna to be OK.

You're gonna be OK.

Give me the goddamn knife!

Now!

Jay, just give me the knife.

Oh, hey.

Come on in.

So, Detective, what can I do for you?

Uh...

I'm here to tell the truth.

Sit down. Come on.

Your sergeant told me about this civilian,

how he joined forces with you at the robbery scene,

sacrificed himself for this pregnant woman.

It's remarkable.

I'm gonna put Mr. Gibson up for commendation

through the Good Samaritan Act.

Get a nice ribbon for his family.

But we're gonna make sure the army hears about this to,

make sure his family's taken care of.

From what I understand,

the meth this crew was making

cost a minimum of 35 deaths from overdose.

We just got an assessment from Narcotics

that the pills you recovered

would have put another 200 pounds of this stuff on the street,

so you saved a lot of lives.

Thank you, sir.

Now what's this?

My resignation.

What?

I spoke to Lenny's friend, Nolan.

They need people.

They need soldiers to run these units, doing drug interdiction.

What are you talking about?

You were right about me.

I changed.

No, Jay.

I didn't mean this. I didn't mean resign.

I had to.

It was the right thing to do.

Nolan put in a call, and...

the army offered me a spot.

I'll run a full squad of guys,

tracking down the worst cartel targets.

No, no, no. Listen to me.

We're gonna get through this, you and me, together.

OK? We're gonna be fine.

I took the job.

I'll be posted in Bolivia.

It's black and white.

It's good and bad.

It's right and wrong, and it's no more of this.

I need that.

I need that back.

But you can't just leave.

I fly out today.

Today?

It's not forever, OK?

It's eight months, maybe a little longer.

But I swear to you

that we're gonna get through this because...

you're the love of my life.

And if I'm yours...

Of course you are.

Then you'll know that you have to let me go.

Hey!

I thought you hated long goodbyes.

You can have any job you want in our department.

I'd tell you I'd make sure of it, but...

you don't need me.

You're past that.

- If you don't want to be me... - No.

It's worse than that.

I do.

I do want to be you.

But it's like you've always told me,

I'm not.

And I shouldn't try.
