Power (2014) s04e10 Episode Script

You Can't Fix This

1 - Is it true? - What? You're mounting a war against the Jimenez again.
[speaking Spanish.]
There's advantages to being underestimated.
Amen.
How we looking with the other thing, though? Going down as we speak.
[grunting.]
Sure he won't wonder where you are? TASHA: It's his big night, and he won't even remember I was invited in the first place.
Funny thing is we never would have come to this moment - if it wasn't for each other.
- I guess that's true.
I am humbled to be the Eastern District of New York's new head of Criminal.
I know who you are, Ray Ray.
JOE: They say this is a big, rich town I just come from the poorest part Bright lights, city life I gotta make it, this is where it goes down I just happen to come up hard Legal or illegal, baby, I gotta make it 50 CENT: I never took a straight path nowhere Life's full of twists and turns, bumps and bruises I live, I learn I'm from that city full of yellow cabs and skyscrapers It's hard to get a start in these parts without paper Homey I grew up in hell, a block away from heaven That corner every 15 minutes, they moving seven Pure snow, bag it, then watch it go Occupational options, get some blow or some hos Shoot the ball or the strap, learn to rap or to jack Fuck it, man, in the meantime Go head and pump a pack This my regal, royal flow, my James Bond bounce That 007, that's 62 on my count I'm an undercover liar, I lie under the covers Look a bitch in the eyes and tell her, baby, I love ya You're my inspiration, you're my motivation You're the reason that I'm moving with no hesitation JOE: They say this is a big, rich town Yeah, I just come from the poorest part Bright lights, city life I gotta make it, this is where it goes down Legal or illegal, baby, I gotta make it LEARY: So you ran outside after you heard the gunshot? Yes.
LEARY: Did you see anyone when you came out? Besides your sister? No.
LEARY: Can you think of anybody that would want to hurt her or your family? No, everybody liked Raina.
She was a good person.
LEARY: Have you been threatened by anybody that seemed dangerous or suspicious, before or after your father's court case? GHOST: No, Detective, he hadn't been threatened.
Okay, look, we've been through a lot this year as a family.
He's told you everything he knows.
I understand this is difficult, Mr.
St.
Patrick, but it's critical if we're to find the person who killed your daughter.
Please, can we just go home? LEARY: We're almost done.
Almost.
We found one set of prints that deviated from the others: a man's 10 1/2 boot.
Remember seeing anyone in boots last night? Tariq, anything you know will help.
I told you I didn't see anything! Don't you think I would have said something if I did? Don't you think I wanna catch him? LEARY: Okay, okay.
You can go home.
We'll be in touch.
GHOST: Okay, let's go home.
Come on, son.
[somber music.]
Okay.
I can't just leave her here.
The M.
E.
will release the body after the autopsy.
We'll call you when she's ready.
In the meantime, you can take her things home now.
You know, so there ain't, like, some secret handshake or some shit, right? I just don't want to go in there unprepared.
Hey, you're Tony Teresi's kid.
That's good enough for me.
Good enough for anybody that matters.
Listen, I'm sorry about being a dick before.
Fuck outta here.
I was being a dick first.
TOMMY: Hold up.
'Sup, K, I didn't know you was back in town.
Tell the old motherfucker to go inside.
Don't concern him.
This shit is about you and me.
All right, all right.
Go ahead, Sammy.
We got a problem here, kid? No, no, no, we good, we good.
Go inside.
Come on, I got this.
Believe me, it's all right.
[indistinct chatter, music playing inside.]
Fuck you doing, K? Ghost told me you split after you killed Jukebox.
The fuck you doing in town now? I had unfinished business.
I come back here to find this shit.
Yo, what the fuck? KANAN: This your idea of a welcome home present? Hell no.
I just told you that I didn't know you was in town till right now.
How I'm gonna send them out to meet you? But more importantly, you saved Tariq's life, according to both him and Ghost.
We ain't got no beef.
I mean, you see that ink? That's Tainos.
These motherfuckers are Cristobal's guys.
- Who the fuck is Cristobal? - He took over for Anibal, head of the Tainos.
One of my former primeras.
He and Dre, they tight like this.
Dre.
He knew I was coming back.
I'm gonna take care of this shit.
I'm gonna go out of town, I'm gonna put a crew together, I'm gonna come back, I'm gonna fuck Dre up, - and that Cristobal bitch, too.
- You let me go back inside, I might be able to get some local backup.
[phone vibrates.]
- Y'all still beefin'? - Mm.
You might wanna get, like a marriage counselor or something.
All right, fuck you, motherfucker.
[phone buzzes.]
- - [tense music.]
'Riq, wait.
Now look, I know I have told you not to talk about our family with anyone.
But if you saw something last night that you were scared to tell the cops, you have to tell us.
You have to.
I already told you everything I know, Mom.
[sighs.]
He's lying.
You just can't see it because he lies exactly the way you do.
He's not lying, Tasha.
He didn't see anything because it was a professional hit.
The Jimenez Cartel.
Tommy warned me that they were coming after us, and I didn't listen to him.
Wait a minute, why the fuck would the Jimenez be after us? Real estate project I have with Simon Stern.
The land we were building on was Toros territory.
So for the deal to go through, I had to deal with the Jimenez.
So you dragged us back into the life.
- No, Tasha - This is on you! - What happened to going clean? - I'm gonna take care of it.
There is no taking care of it! You can't fix this! Our daughter is gone, Ghost! I know! Fuck! I carried her.
I carried that girl in my body, Ghost.
She was blood of my blood, flesh of my flesh.
This isn't just happening to you.
But I'm gonna be the one to end it, though.
I won't rest until the man that killed our daughter is dead.
Good.
You just better not get killed.
And don't get fucking caught.
We still got two kids upstairs that we need to take care of.
[Dirty South's The Unknown plays.]
A wall of darkness In front of me A life I've left Behind Reeling back On this journey Just don't ask why Dive deep To the unknown Dive deep To the unknown Dive deep To the unknown Eeeh Dive deep To the unknown Eeeh [phone buzzes.]
See I know Tameika and I have hand-picked this team.
We want the dedication and the professionalism of Eastern District's Criminal Division to be unparalleled.
Under my leadership, we will become a paragon of criminal interdiction.
The mistakes of the past will stay in the past.
Now, last night a house in Suffolk County was raided after the neighbors made a complaint.
Eighty-six keys of cocaine were discovered, along with enough weapons to equip a small army.
We've been watching this cell for months.
This is my case.
And maybe I'll assign it to you, John.
For now, everyone is briefed.
A dozen bodies were also found plastered inside the walls.
According to the FBI agents on site, one particular weapon stood out from the rest.
The inside mechanism of this gun has been changed several times.
Somebody loved this gun, enough to ensure that he or she could continue to kill with it and not be traced.
Cooper Saxe, nice of you to join.
Sorry, boss.
I was distracted by the news about St.
Patrick this morning.
James St.
Patrick no longer matters to this office.
Never should have in the first place.
That case is closed as far as we're concerned, Saxe.
Oh, it's not about his case.
His daughter was shot and killed outside her school last night.
But I'm sorry, what were What were you saying? Yes, the next order of business is to trace the manufacturer of this gun.
[gentle music.]
[soft knock at door.]
[chuckles.]
I thought we fucked James St.
Patrick over.
Destroy Injustice's Man of the Year.
He's a totally clean businessman.
He is, as far as I know.
The teenage daughters of legit businessmen don't get gunned down in cold blood outside a Sadie Hawkins dance.
We don't know what happened.
She could have been in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Yeah, right.
You know, if it were me, and my daughter was murdered, I'd want revenge.
And I'm from Connecticut, not Queens.
I'm from Queens, Saxe.
Exactly.
Now, Greg You remember Greg? He had a theory that James St.
Patrick was the real Ghost.
Major drug dealer, murderer.
Guys like that, their kids get hurt.
He's gonna make a move, Angela.
And when he does, it's gonna be the perfect opportunity to take him down.
Take him down for what? After everything that's happened, this office is not looking to prosecute James St.
Patrick.
This office, Angela, or you? This is evidence of criminal involvement.
You ignore it, it's your funeral.
Well, the little girl's really.
- Get out.
- Too soon? Now.
Sweet office.
[Jacob Banks's Mercy plays.]
I played the game I reconciled Well, well, well, well I wear the blame Like a shooting tire I sing your lullaby Your melodies Like a symphony We fold us in When we walk the wire I just need a little mercy Mercy on me [phone vibrates.]
I just need a little mercy Mercy on me I just need a little mercy Mercy on me [elevator chimes.]
[tense music.]
GHOST: Thank you.
Hey, Angie.
What are you doing here? Jamie, I'm so sorry.
Is there anything I can do? No.
Nothing anyone can do.
Do you have any idea who could have done this? Was there anyone targeting you? No.
Look, Angie, I gotta go make funeral arrangements, all right? What's in the bag? It's just a suit.
Jamie, I want to help.
Please.
Whoever did this, I will put them in jail.
If you know, please tell me.
I just told you, I don't know.
If you do know and you are taking steps to get revenge, if you get caught, you will lose everything you've ever worked for.
You will lose everything.
I already lost everything.
Thanks for coming by.
[sighs.]
- Ghost.
- Tommy.
- You know where we're going? - I know where to start.
Everything we've ever done, man, every choice we ever made, it was for those kids, brother.
I know, brother.
[tense music.]
Let's go get 'em.
[engine starts, revs.]
I want that shit to be sparkling, so I can fuck your mama on it.
[phone buzzer.]
Yo.
Yo, you know where I can find Ray Ray? What's up, little man? What's good? Yo, I need to find Ray Ray.
He owe me some money.
I ain't seen him in a minute, man.
I've been out in D.
C.
Why he owe you money? You been hitting licks? Yeah, something like that.
Yo, if you hear from him, let me know.
All right, bet.
Clap clap, round of applause Clap clap, round of applause Clap clap, round of applause Shit.
Finally.
Cuz, where you been? I need my phone back.
- Not yet.
- Did I ask? Give me my phone back.
Look, your boy ain't show last night.
You might need to text him again.
Huh.
Really? What, you catching feelings for him or something? No.
Look, he was there, all right? Shit got fucked up.
I had to clip his sister.
What? You said that he just owed you money.
What the fuck you shooting his sister for? Don't matter.
What's important is that I just read his statement right here, and he didn't say shit about me to the cops, which means he's gonna appeal to a higher authority.
His father.
He hates his father.
Yeah, 'cause his daddy's a no-good motherfucker, yo.
And he'll be looking for me in a minute.
Look, cuz, I gotta leave town.
What the fuck am I supposed to do if you leave town? - I don't - [knocking at door.]
[tense music.]
Go in the back, and stay the fuck quiet.
Yo, what's good? ANGELA: Detective Raymond Jones? Who's asking? ANGELA: AUSA Angela Valdes.
- Come in.
- Thank you.
I'm looking into Tariq St.
Patrick.
I was hoping you might be able to help.
I spoke with his principal, Mrs.
Chambers.
She told me you were at the school.
I was wondering why you had questions for him.
Two students' houses were robbed, and Tariq was near or on the premises both times.
The truth is, the kid's on a bad path.
I went there to scare some sense into him.
You know his sister was killed last night, right? Yeah, yeah, I heard about that.
That's very sad.
[suspenseful music.]
- [groans.]
- Fuck is this, man? TOMMY: You know exactly why we here! Get down! Ahh! [groaning.]
- Shit, man.
- Don't move.
I didn't burn your fucking product, asshole! That's not why we're here.
Which one of your Jimenez jefes killed my daughter? Man, I don't know what you talking about! Who gave the fucking order! You tell me, maybe I'll spare your life.
Who gave the order.
[speaking Spanish.]
- Motherfucker.
- Ahh! Shit! [grunting indistinctly.]
I had nothing to do with your daughter.
I didn't even know about her till right now! You're a fucking liar.
Why the fuck should we believe you? The Jimenez don't kill kids.
Alicia wouldn't approve of it, and Diego don't do shit without her say-so, man.
Get the fuck outta here.
Swear on your motherfucking life you never made any move against anyone in my family, swear to me.
Swear to me.
I said swear to me, motherfucker! I killed Julio.
Dre set me up to do it.
Dre? What the fuck? Dre set you up to do what? Why? You better fucking Ghost, what the fuck? He was talking Dre.
I don't give a fuck about Dre.
I don't give a fuck about any of that.
If the Jimenez didn't kill Raina - He coulda been lying! - The truth was the only way to save his life.
He gave that up, didn't he? Fucking no, man, the Jimenez didn't do this.
So we're back to square fucking one.
I gotta go plan my daughter's funeral.
We're gonna find out who killed Raina, Ghost.
I promise you that.
[elevator chimes.]
Everything happens for a reason.
Sometimes we just can't see Sorry to interrupt.
Oh, um, exc excuse me.
Let's go in here.
I cannot believe this is happening.
I know, I know.
It's unimaginable.
I don't understand how you're even walking upright.
Tasha, I'm going to help you get justice for Raina, okay? I have investigators.
I have contacts.
I will not rest until her killer is found.
Do you Do you have any idea what happened? No.
I don't.
You can trust me, Tasha.
You know that.
Whatever it is, I can help.
Look, Terry, please, I can't talk about it, so Yes, you can.
Yes, you can.
Look I love you.
Tasha I'm sorry.
I know I know this isn't the right time.
It's certainly not the right place, but it is the truth, and I can't watch this happen to you without without being a part of making it right.
Wait.
Wh where's James? [gentle music.]
He's out making arrangements.
Tasha, listen to me.
Your family is under intense scrutiny right now, okay? So if something criminal is happening that you can stop, then you need to stop it right now.
- Let me go.
- Tasha You don't understand.
You're not a parent.
Then help me to understand.
Thanks for stopping by, Terry.
I thi I think you should leave now.
- Tasha - Bye, Terry.
[suspenseful music.]
[engine starts.]
And I want my fucking money for babysitting that little punk bitch, Tariq.
You ain't given me or Juke our money in a minute.
What's up, man? Look, I I don't got time to play games with you.
All right, I don't owe you shit.
You ain't gonna shoot me in broad daylight, so get the fuck out my face.
You think you're so slick, young'n.
See, you forgot I'm an undercover cop, motherfucker.
Yeah, this whole time I've been wearing a wire.
I got tapes on tapes of you and Kanan running your fucking mouth about drugs, kidnappings, pulling licks, all that shit.
You want me to keep my mouth shut, you pay me, motherfucker.
I don't got shit on me.
But I got a spot I can meet you at with the money I owe you, man.
No, fuck that.
I say where.
- Okay.
- I'll text you an address.
You be there at 6:00.
Don't fuck up, nigga.
[indistinct chatter.]
I'm sorry for your loss, son.
She's in a better place, right? Yeah, I guess.
[indistinct chatter.]
Oh, baby, come here.
How are you holding up? I don't know what I would do if I lost a sibling, but a twin? I just can't imagine what you're going through.
Where's Raina? When's she coming back home? I don't know, Yas.
So how much we gonna pull down? There's no way to know, but this nigga Dre is strutting like he's rich as a motherfucker.
Ghost put him in position to get that money.
He got that money, and we gonna take that.
That's a fact.
And his position in the drug organization.
We gonna be making money hand over fist.
This is our op right here.
Andre Coleman.
- You ever Google this nigga? - Google, what the fuck for? - For this.
- You see him? That right there, that's Ghost.
He outta the game now, but back in the day he was a murdering son of a bitch, and that right there, that's Dre.
That's our ops right there.
- Mm.
- If he's smart, he moved his bitch and his little girl, 'cause I know where that spot is at.
You think this guy, James St.
Patrick, still work with Dre? Wouldn't make sense now, but nigga Ghost do be doing some strange shit.
Why? Says here his kid got shot.
Killed.
- Tariq? - A daughter.
Raina.
Oh, and she was a smart girl, Father.
You don't even know.
Beautiful.
I was there her whole life.
You know, a godfather is supposed to be there to protect you.
A lot of fucking good I was for her.
CALLAHAN: Tommy, you can't blame yourself.
It's God's will.
Fuck God's will.
If I wasn't high on the fucking shit, this never would have happened.
Well, I can't absolve you from snorting your own product.
When I catch one of my kids with a frosty nose, I have him clean out the toilets after the homeless come through.
[chuckles.]
I am sorry about the girl.
Yeah.
I'm glad you came to see me.
How's shit going with Dre? Uh, we got a meeting tonight with the new connect.
That fast? This motherfucker.
- Tommy.
- Sorry.
This guy who fucks mothers.
Dre.
He's been setting me up all along.
You know, he even set up Julio to get killed by the Toros.
Is that true? Oh, yeah.
Jesus Christ.
He's been fucking me left and right this whole fucking time.
If I catch him alone, I'm gonna break that sixth commandment again.
Tommy, I can't give you absolution in advance.
- [phone buzzes.]
- Why not? Doesn't work that way.
I don't really know why.
I've never really been able to get an explanation on it.
Father, I gotta take this.
[buzzing continues.]
Yo, K, what's up? Yeah? Yeah, well, you want to roll on Dre, I'm down for whatever.
Oh, we're gonna do that with a quickness as soon as I get back up there, but that ain't why I'm calling.
I think I know who killed Ghost's little girl.
[dramatic music.]
Fuck you talking about? When I was up there getting to know Tariq, we was hitting licks with this cat named Ray Ray.
Raymond Jones.
He a dirty cop.
One of Jukebox's friends.
- Why would he shoot Raina? - I don't know.
But Tariq called me, asking how can he find him.
Now the little nigga ain't answering his phone.
Either he went looking for Ray Ray, or Ray Ray came looking for him.
I need to find Ray Ray.
Where he stay at? [phone vibrates.]
We don't allow those devices in here, son.
Apologies.
And "James" is fine.
I'm very sorry about your loss, James.
We're all devastated by what your family is going through.
We're here to help you.
I'm here to accept whatever help you can offer.
I thought we'd perform the service here.
Councilman Tate told me you don't have a church home.
That's true.
We'd like to become your spiritual refuge.
Your sanctuary.
A place you can feel safe to bow your head.
For a small honorarium, your daughter can have the homegoing she deserves.
A police escort for the casket.
A congregation in song, a crowd on the steps of our great, historic façade.
Um, again, Reverend, I'm humbled by your offer, but I think that'll draw a lot of publicity, no? I think that's the last thing my family and I need at this time.
I mean, we've been in the news enough.
We can help shape that publicity, son.
It's coming whether you like it or not.
Consider it.
I'm sure you'll see that God is bringing us together for a reason.
I think the word is charlatan? He's an opportunist certainly, but he believes in what he's saying.
Yeah, just like I believed in what you were saying, Rashad, when you said you wanted to give back to the community.
Now you get us kicking back to some two-bit hood from Queens.
You got me up in here turning my daughter's funeral into a press conference.
James, Raina is gone.
As hard as it is to face No, no, no, no.
You have no idea how hard this is to face.
I don't, but it's reality.
And this is an opportunity in a wake of tragedy.
You want to help your community, be the symbol we need you to be, you gotta use that agony to make change, brother.
Look, Rashad, with all due respect, I know we're in a church, but I don't give a fuck about that today.
You will tomorrow and all the tomorrows after that.
The daughters of innocent men sleep safely in their beds, James.
Now, I don't know what happened to Raina or why.
But if it had something to do with your past, it needs to stay there.
What you trying to say? I'm not trying to say anything.
Look, here's what's gonna happen.
You're gonna let Macedon do Raina's service.
I'm gonna stand up there with you as your brother.
And you're gonna let the police handle everything else.
You understand? Are we clear? Real clear.
[tense music.]
Unfortunately, we do have to tell Chanté that she's no longer on the group song.
- Hey, good to see you.
- Hey, hey.
- How are you? - Yeah.
- Ahhh! - Where the fuck is Ray Ray? You fucking hear me, you insect? - Talk! - I don't know! I don't know! I don't know.
Look, he left town.
Please don't shoot me.
Please don't shoot me.
Please, please.
Motherfucker! Did he say where? No.
Is 'Riq okay? You know Tariq? Yeah, I heard about his sister.
I just wanted to make sure he was okay.
I didn't want him to think that I had anything to do with it, 'cause I didn't.
You have to let him know.
Why would he think that? Because Ray Ray took my phone last night, and he used it to To what? Used it to what? [stammers.]
I don't I don't Never mind, never mind.
Hey, what's your name? Destiny.
Destiny.
Have a seat, Destiny.
Come on.
Please.
You know, Tariq mentioned you.
He was really upset last night, that you lied to him.
He thought that you set him up to die.
No, I didn't lie to him.
I didn't know.
I didn't know what Ray was gonna do.
It's okay, Destiny, 'cause you can make this right now.
You understand? [tense music.]
You are gonna make this right.
I just need your help.
You asking me to snitch on my cousin.
I ain't asking you to do nothing.
Any innocent little girl just like you died yesterday.
I don't wanna hurt you.
But you need to tell me where Ray Ray is at.
He's going to D.
C.
That's good.
That's real good.
What else? He's making a stop in the city at his spot in the Heights.
You got an address? [phone buzzes.]
Tommy? Yo, T, we found out who killed Raina.
What? What are you talking about? I thought it was the Jimenez.
No, it was some dirty fucking cop.
I'm about to meet up with Ghost to get our hands on him.
Don't let no cops into the apartment, all right? What I don't get it.
Why would a cop want to hurt Raina? It wasn't Raina they was after.
It was Tariq, and the guy's still out there looking for him.
Okay, I'm coming to meet you.
LaKeisha can watch after the kids.
No, we got this.
You stay there.
Hold down Tariq.
Find out what else he knows.
And Tasha, figure out some alibis.
We're gonna need 'em.
Fucking gut him, Tommy.
[intense music.]
Oh, 'Keisha, have you seen Tariq? No.
Why, what's wrong? - [mutters indistinctly.]
- What's wrong? Baby Where's your brother? He left.
He left? Where? [tense music.]
TASHA: Tariq? Have you guys seen Tariq? Nah, he said he was going somewhere.
Well, did he say where? No, he just took his bag and left.
I think he went in the office.
[suspenseful music.]
[phone buzzes.]
DRE: Karen and I both want this to be the best club in New York City, so let's get, uh Let's get that handled.
- Uh-huh.
- All right, thank you.
Hey, man.
Sorry, I heard about your sister, man.
I'm glad you hit me up.
How you doing? 'Riq, what the fuck is this, man? I need to find Ray Ray.
So what you want with me? Well, you introduced me to Kanan, and you knew where I was when Ray Ray sent that text.
So I'm guessing you know everything.
So where the fuck is Ray Ray? Riq, you on that lean again? Mm-hmm.
And I might be high enough to shoot you right here in broad daylight.
Hey.
'Riq, you'd be shooting me for nothing.
Look, I swear I'd help you if I could, but I don't know where he is, 'Riq.
That's bullshit.
You're lying to me.
Everybody's always fucking lying to me.
Ray Ray was looking for me when he shot my sister, man.
All right, little bro, look, I feel you, but Ray Ray is a bad motherfucker.
Let me handle this.
Put the gun down No, I'm taking care of it.
Listen, Dre, I covered for you before.
But if you don't tell me where Ray Ray is, I will snitch on you to my pops and my Uncle Tommy.
I'll tell 'em that you knew everything.
I'll tell them that you knew that Kanan was alive this whole time, and that you knew who killed my sister - and you still ain't say shit.
- I did that for you, man.
I kept shit quiet for you, man.
Yeah, I'll tell them everything I know about you at any time.
So either you speak or I will.
So where the fuck is Ray Ray? - Hey, hey - Where is he? Fine.
Nigga's gonna be in Washington Heights at 6:00 P.
M.
735 Fort Washington Ave.
Apartment 5C.
All right.
[knocking at door.]
- Tasha.
- I need your help.
I asked Jamie James If he wanted me to help.
- He said no.
- Tariq is missing.
Can you please track his cell phone, please? Oh, my God, yes.
Yes, I can do that.
Can you get me Agent Donovan? No police.
Ghost James said you cloned his phone once.
Actually, never mind.
I'll call him later.
Carl, I need you to find a cell phone for me.
Yes, I'll pay cash.
I don't care.
Okay.
What's Tariq's cell number? It's a 347 local.
I'll text it to you right now.
He's fast.
Okay.
Thank you.
Did Tariq run away because he shot Raina? Is that why Jamie told me that he didn't need my help? What? What the Tariq did not kill Raina.
Are you out of your goddamn mind? He would never hurt his sister.
Tasha, then why are you here? Why couldn't I involve the police? You don't trust me.
But you knew I would help.
Tell me what's happening.
I just I just need to find Tariq.
Listen to me, Tasha.
I went to Tariq's school.
A police officer named Raymond Jones had been there looking for Tariq.
I went to see him.
He's the one that suggested that Tariq killed Raina.
I just looked in Raina's file, and the same Detective Jones has been looking at Tariq's witness statements.
Did Raymond Jones kills Raina? I I don't know.
Tasha, where is James right now? [phone vibrates.]
Okay, Tariq is in Washington Heights.
I can't get you an address because it's all done with cell towers, but this is what's close.
Okay.
If James gets caught killing Detective Jones, he will get the death penalty this time, Tasha.
I promise you.
Thank you, Angela.
[tense music.]

You killed my sister.
Who the fuck told you I was here? Dre? I ain't dumb.
I know you're a cop, and I got the drop on you.
Goddamn right I'm a cop, and you came up in here with no backup.
- Hmm? - I ain't alone.
[chuckles.]
That's bullshit.
Ain't no way your pops or your Uncle Tommy gonna let you come up here first.
If they were here, I'd already be dead.
You deserve to die for what you did.
Then pull the trigger, motherfucker.
Be a man.
Go ahead, do it.
Do it.
Yeah, that's what I fucking thought.
You a little bitch.
Just like I thought you were when I first met you.
Your sister, she the real G.
At least she stepped up.
[gunshot.]
[panting.]
[gunshot.]
Son, are you okay? You okay? You okay? Tariq? Are you okay? He killed Raina, Uncle T.
I had to fix it.
- He's okay.
- I had to, I had to.
Hey, it's all right.
Oh, my gosh.
- Are you all right? - He's fine.
- Oh, my God.
- Thank God, he's fine.
Baby, give me my gun.
Come on.
Give me my gun.
- Tommy.
- Yeah.
[approaching sirens.]
Oh, shit.
We gotta get out of here.
Come on.
Take off your backpack.
Turn your jacket inside out.
Come on, let's go! I saw this motherfucker talking to Dre today.
Do you know this piece of shit? No.
Son, how'd you know where to find him? Dre told me.
Come on, let's go.
[sirens approaching.]
The witness picked out a photograph of Tommy Egan as the man who kidnapped her.
And we already have a tracker on his car.
- We could just turn it on.
- Maybe.
Even better, she said she could voice ID James St.
Patrick as the man who told her to say good-bye to her boyfriend.
Now, she never saw the boyfriend again.
I told you we were staying away from St.
Patrick.
I guess our alert to be called if his name came up is still in the NYPD system.
She heard St.
Patrick on TV of all things and she felt she should come in.
I'm not convinced there's enough to pursue here.
Did you talk to Angela? Pssh.
She's been gone for hours.
Just listen to what the woman has to say, huh? Where is she? Maria Suarez, this is U.
S.
Attorney Tameika Robinson.
Would you please tell her your story? Exactly what you told me.
[suspenseful music.]
This winter is fucking endless.
You made me meet you out here to talk about the weather? Look, man, the meeting's not till later.
What do you want to talk about? I want out.
I don't like the way you work.
Hold on.
Where is this coming from, Padre? Me and you never had problems before.
That was before I found out you set up Julio to die.
I don't want any part of that.
You do that, you'll do anything.
I gotta keep my kids safe.
And, um Who told you I did anything to Julio? Tommy.
Okay.
And you believe him? I mean, you know he's a He's a fucking crackhead, right? He wouldn't lie to me.
Look, Dre you let me walk away without a fight.
I'll never tell those guys about Julio.
You ain't saying shit to anyone ever.
I just told you, I won't be a problem.
No, no, you just told me that you belong to Tommy.
And that shit ain't gonna fly with me, man.
Dre [breathing heavily.]
[coughs.]
[groans.]
Rest in peace, motherfucker.
[dramatic music.]
[Arrow Benjamin's Silent Preacher plays.]
[vocalizing.]
I'm slow in the quicksand Drowning in the sun - Where we going? - Trust me.
I'm a sleeping hero And a bullet's in the gun Dream in the fast lane But I wake up in a crash I'm not sorry.
I'm not sorry either.
Take off your shirt.
Sometimes I pray The prayer to me Was more than just a silent preacher And my faith was heaven made I had to fix it, Mom.
Listen to me, Tariq.
Listen.
When we go upstairs, you're gonna get off that elevator and go straight to my bathroom.
Don't talk to anyone.
BENJAMIN: Sometimes I pray The prayer to me Was more than just a silent preacher And my faith was heaven made Standing for what I believe in TASHA: And then you're gonna take off the rest of your clothes, put 'em in a trash bag.
Don't touch anything.
You hear me? TASHA: And you're gonna wash your hands better than you've ever washed 'em before.
Go under Daddy's sink and make sure you scrub your nails with a toothbrush and hydrogen peroxide.
BENJAMIN: Silent preacher TASHA: Then you're gonna get in the shower and don't come out until you scrub your hair and wash every inch of your body, twice.
BENJAMIN: Silent preacher TASHA: Don't stop until you wash every bit of this day down the drain.
BENJAMIN: Silent preacher Louder Tommy One more stop.
[phone buzzes.]
- Yo.
- I just said we gotta go.
It's for you.
BENJAMIN: [vocalizing.]
Hello.
Yo, how long y'all think before we get this product, man? - I don't know.
- Shit better be fast.
I just bounced a check on Grandma's gall bladder surgery.
Man, you spent all your money on Afro Sheen.
Ohhh, and you spent all yours on toothpaste.
The fuck outta here.
Motherfuckers can see your teeth from outer space and shit.
Yo man, you guys seen Father Callahan? - No.
- No.
Sorry for the delay, everyone.
I'd like to meet our connect, Alicia and Diego Jimenez.
We're very happy to begin this new partnership.
Normally we do not meet our primeras, but we have an issue we'd like to address.
The death of Uriel, the head of the Toros Locos.
- Ohh.
- That wasn't us.
- Hell no.
- The power vacuum at the top of the Toros is already causing trouble.
Uriel had a very firm hand.
Our agreement was based on access to this hotel and others like it, yes, but first, on a smooth transfer, no war.
Alicia, look, you have my word, no one in this room made the call to kill Uriel.
PONCHO: Yo, yo, yo, Callahan is not here.
He might have done it.
That's right, he didn't show.
Callahan dropped out for different reasons.
Look, we're ready to proceed.
I could vouch for each one of these men.
No one will make a move without my say-so.
[tense music.]
So we are agreed.
Diego? We're agreed.
[camera shutter snapping, indistinct radio chatter.]
No word from Jones at all? I'm sorry, Miss Valdes.
I spoke to Detective Jones personally.
When he didn't report, I sent one of my unis to look for him.
Apparently the shots-fired call came from this location not long after you and I spoke.
We found his car parked outside.
What is this place? A flop we put together as part of his cover.
The techs haven't run the DNA yet, but that blood type matches Jones'.
There was rug here.
The doer must have used it to get rid of a body.
Detective Jones was very careful.
We have no idea who could have tracked him here.
You see that? [tense music.]
There's a bullet in there.
If you run the ballistics, I bet you'll get a match.
Hey.
I'm so glad that you called.
[sighs.]
Mm.
Are you okay? I need to tell you what happened today.
All right.
But I need to know that you will never tell anyone.
[chuckles.]
Tash you can trust me.
Um if someone lost a member of their family, the person closest to them in the world, and and they knew who killed her, and they went to confront that person, just to talk, but in the heat of the moment their gun If they killed the person who killed her - Tasha - If they did, what would you tell them, Terry? Tell James to get a lawyer.
It's not James.
It's me.
Wait.
What? I need a lawyer, Terry.
I need a lawyer.
I can either be your lover or your lawyer, Tasha, but But not both.
[gentle music.]
Will you take my case? [speaking Spanish.]
Okay.
[distant emergency sirens.]
[dramatic music.]
TOMMY: Fuck! He's with the fucking Jimenez, man.
We can't just roll up and shoot the motherfucker.
It's gonna take more planning, more soldiers.
I got some guys with me.
Yeah, but that ain't gonna be enough, K.
I may have some people.
Anybody feel like Italian? [Gallant's Shotgun plays.]
How did I get stuck in this valiant position Either I survive for an instant Or cradle the earth My godforsaken weakened pulse I knew I had to amend this Though I never was a force to be reckoned Or a sight to behold With burns on the backs of my palms Will I regret my cause Or revel in my thoughts Oh, I'm caught in the winds Of remorse 'Cause everybody knows What good is a sword Next to a shotgun Oh no [vocalizing.]
What good is a sword next to a shotgun Oh I know that I'd rather be bold Next to a shotgun
