Taxi Brooklyn (2014) s01e05 Episode Script
Ambush
1x05 - Ambush Ooh, by the way, have you seen your mother? Uh, no, not in a couple weeks.
She left me a message last week, saying she was going to Vermont for the weekend.
She had a wonderful time.
- How do you know? - She told me.
- When? - Yesterday.
She's very upset that you haven't called or - dropped by to check on her.
- Yeah, I've been busy.
You know, I think she's lonely.
She's even asked me how I thought you would react to her dating.
- Dating? - Yeah.
And she wants to know who the man you've been seeing is.
How does she know that I've been seeing somebody? Ah! I knew it.
- I knew it.
- Oh.
Come on.
- What's his name? - You know what? That is none of your business.
Rhys.
Okay? And we went out to dinner.
That is all.
- Rhys.
- Yeah.
- Rhys? - Yeah.
- What kind of a name is that? - It's English.
_ _ What did you just say? - He's a Brit.
- Yeah.
And they're so pompous and arrogant.
Well, you should hear what he - has to say about the French.
- What? Snobby, rude, arrogant, condescending.
And, God, what was the last one? Wait, wait, don't tell me.
Passive-aggressive.
That was my favorite one.
- I want to meet him.
- That's not gonna happen.
- Are you embarrassed by Rhys? - No.
It's not gonna happen.
What's wrong with your British boyfriend? Fat? Ugly? Bad teeth? Oh, my God, he's fat, ugly, and he got bad teeth.
Those two S.
U.
V.
's just pulled in front and - behind that correction van.
- Yeah, I saw that.
- Something's wrong.
- Stay on him.
This is not good.
Whoa! They're breaking prisoners out.
- We gotta get out of here! - What are you doing? - Turn it around! Stop the car! - Are you crazy? Turn this car around now! What are you doing? You're outgunned! Caitlyn! I can't believe I'm doing this! Cat, get down! Stop! Oh! Let go of me! What are you doing? I'm saving your life! Man down! - They got away because of you.
- I'm here to help.
How bad are you hit? You're okay.
You're going to be fine, Ferguson.
Can you hear me, Ferguson? Ferguson! All right, 10-13.
I got an officer down.
I repeat, officer down.
Esposito, what do you got? Driver and one of the prisoners are D.
O.
A.
But it looks like Officer Ferguson is gonna make it.
Both S.
U.
V.
's, though, were reported stolen last night.
This was a well-executed plan.
These guys were pros.
They got five prisoners coming from Rikers Island to criminal court.
Suzanne Correa she's the dead one Paula Poe, Alicia Dean, Debra Salvo.
Eleanor Wilson.
- You know one of 'em? What? - Tell her, Esposito.
Tell me what? Eleanor Wilson was the only witness to your father's murder.
She's the "Ellie" that I was looking for in Coney Island? - It's not your case, Cat.
- No, no, no, no, no.
This was a hit.
And I bet you anything that the Capellas had something to do with this.
Damn it! If this was a hit on the witness to your father's murder, how come she is the one dead and not the witness? Well, we surprised them before they had a chance to take out Ellie Wilson.
Suzanne was just hit in the cross fire.
Sorry, but I think your anger might be clouding your judgment here.
My anger has nothing to do with my judgment.
Okay.
Ellie Wilson, 19.
Mother and father live in Virginia.
No contact with them since she ran away from home at age 15 with a man she met on the Internet.
Picked up on drug charges.
Alicia Dean, 25.
Armed robbery.
Has an arrest record that dates back to childhood.
No known relatives.
That's Debra Salvo, 28.
Picked up on prostitution charges.
Her brother lives in Manhattan.
Okay, Suzanne Correa, who is deceased.
- And - Paula Poe.
No information.
No age given.
No photo.
All these women had court dates today, except Paula Poe.
Why is that? She has no file.
Prisoners don't get transported without a file.
You know that.
Paula Poe Paula Poe is a variant of "Jane Doe.
" Bingo.
Didn't I tell you your anger was - clouding your judgment? - Shut up.
Officer involved shooting.
I need your incident report, Sullivan.
No problem as long as I can see your file on Ellie Wilson.
No idea who you're talking about.
The only witness to my father's murder, who just happened to be in the van that was hit.
You know you're gonna get yourself killed, Sullivan, just like your old man did.
Are you threatening me? I want that report before the end of the day.
Sullivan.
- You find the prisoners yet? - Why are you yelling? Because you're hard of hearing.
I will call you as soon as we know something, okay? Do not hang up on me.
- You know, I've been thinking - That's a first.
We should hook your mother up with Captain Baker.
Are you insane, or do you have a head injury that I'm not aware of? I just think they would make such a cute couple.
Don't you think? I just threw up in my mouth.
- Really? - No, it's a figure of speech.
If Captain Baker had a woman in his life, he wouldn't yell so much, - if you know what I mean.
- That's my mother you're talking about.
You think she's too old to desire a man? No, you know what? I don't really think about it at all.
In fact, I make it a point to not ever let those thoughts enter my mind.
And unfortunately, they're there.
It's Blech! Sullivan.
Where? I'm on my way.
Two patrol officers think they found one of our escapees under the Queensboro Bridge.
- That's good.
- She's dead.
- That's bad.
- You better hope that it's not Ellie Wilson.
- Me? What did I do? - You turned around.
She never would have escaped if you would have listened to me.
And you would be dead if I hadn't pushed you out of the way.
If you want to start running into gunfire and standing in front of speeding cars like you're Wonder Woman or something, that's your problem.
But I have my son to think about.
Maybe you should start thinking about your mother too.
What about my mother? She's already lost her husband.
She doesn't want to lose her daughter too.
Whoo! New York Times Village Voice Dumb advice Make the choice Top billin' Sky's the limit Brooklyn party I am in it She was just layin' in here.
When we saw her prison denims, - we figured we better call you.
- Thanks.
- What do you got? - It's Alicia Dean.
Double tap to the back of the head.
Executed Capella-style.
Why would the Capellas wanna kill Alicia Dean? Maybe they didn't know what Ellie Wilson looks like.
Maybe they just knew she was in the correction's van.
Cat, Anabella Capella is not even in town.
How do you know? Because I followed through with your hair-brained theory.
- So you believe me? - No.
It's one of the most ludicrous things you ever said.
Anabella Cappella's the new godfather.
- Captain Baker.
- DelVeccio.
- Which one is it? - Alicia Dean.
Two bullets to the back of the head.
Executed Capella-style.
- Capella? You're way off base, Sullivan.
- What? This is Russian mob.
Vasily Kell to be exact.
Drugs, prostitution, arms trafficking, murder for hire.
Their crew runs out of Brighton Beach.
All the Russian cab drivers are afraid of them.
Hi.
I'm Leo Romba.
I'm consulting.
- A.
D.
A.
Winters.
May Winters.
- Hi.
- Hi, Cat.
- Hey, DelVeccio.
You mind telling us what the hell is going on here? We opened a grand jury case against Kell.
One of the inmates in the van, Paula Poe, was being transported to the courthouse to testify against him.
She's our star witness.
Her real name is Kristin Malone.
So what was she testifying to? She used to work as a dispatcher at a freight company.
She forged a bill of lading so that Kell could take a delivery of a semi.
- Stolen M-4's, MK-12's, Gavelins - Gavelins? That's military ordinance.
Exactly.
So if our star witness can tie Kell to this shipment, then we cripple the organization, and they go away for life.
They wanna kill Kristin Malone in order to keep her from testifying? - Yes.
- So why did Alicia Dean end up dead? Kell doesn't know what Kristin Malone looks like.
We got that part down.
Kell knew the witness was on his way to the courthouse this morning.
- You have a leak.
- Yeah, I'm aware of that.
So Vasily is going to hunt down and kill every woman who escaped.
Yes.
Including the only witness to my father's murder.
Exactly.
Would you excuse me? You need to find Kristin Malone before Kell kills her.
And you need to do it before That's when the grand jury reconvenes.
The judge has given us 24 hours to produce a witness, or he's gonna throw the whole case out.
Ellie's parents haven't heard from her since she was 17.
She called asking for money.
They didn't even know that she was in the city until I told them.
Debra Salvo's brother says he hasn't heard from her.
I got people watching him, but so far I got nothing.
The only thing we got on Kristin Malone is her name, her photo and the fact she was in protective custody for 2 months.
I don't think she'd go anywhere she'd be recognized.
- Oh, man.
Why doesn't she turn herself in? - Would you? I mean, they hit a corrections van in broad daylight.
There's a snitch in the D.
A.
's office.
Somebody tipped the Russians off.
She's scared.
She doesn't know where to go or who to trust.
Cat, I want you to pay the Russians a visit.
You let 'em know we're onto them.
See if they tip their hand.
Eddie? I want you on Salvo's brother.
- He so much as moves, I want to know.
- What about Ellie Wilson? We got every unit in the city looking for her.
Maybe we'll get lucky.
She's a druggie.
Maybe she needs a fix.
Well, we're turning every crack house and shooting gallery in the city upside down looking for her.
We'll find her, Cat.
Hey, guys.
How's the surf? - Totally tubular.
- Well, you must be Vasily.
- In the flesh.
- Yeah.
- What can I do for you, Detective? - I know who you are.
I'm just a surfer who follows the waves.
I live life one wave at a time.
"If you want the ultimate" "You got to be willing to pay the ultimate price.
" "It's not tragic to die doing what you love.
" - I love that guy.
Bodhi, he's my hero.
- Me too.
- Oh, my God.
Point Break is such a fantastic movie.
- I'm sorry.
Are you done? A corrections van was hit this morning.
So? What does that have to do with us? We're surfers.
- I've never heard of Russian surfers.
- Really? There are a lot of us.
Huh? Me and my crew, we travel the world, following the waves, but we always come back here because we get homesick for Brighton Beach.
Does your crew also get homesick for the gulag? A French cop with an eye for prison tattoos in Brooklyn.
Where were you this morning? I was surfing all day in Rockaway.
How would you like to surf with me, hmm? You look like you have a low center of gravity.
Excuse me.
Sullivan.
Debra Salvo's brother just withdrew a pile of cash from a bank on Second Avenue.
Now he's heading uptown, and I'm not the only one that saw him.
They took off when they saw me.
- Da.
- Come to Rooswelt, they saw the girl.
Da.
- You know, you remind me of Johnny Utah.
- Really? The found the girl.
We gotta go.
All right.
Stay on him.
I'm on my way.
Was it something important? - Surfing report.
- Oh.
It's gonna be an awesome week.
I bet it is.
Well, we'll talk to you later.
I look forward to it, Detective Sullivan.
"I know it's hard for you Johnny.
I know you want me so bad, it's like acid in your mouth.
" Huh? It was Bodhi, right? That's what that was? - Of course.
- It's hilarious.
- Any sign of Debra? - Not yet.
That's her brother there sitting on the bench.
That's her in the gray hoodie.
He just gave her money.
She's leaving town.
- Oh, my gosh! - Stop now, bitch! - Run, Debra! Run! - Stay here! I'm not staying here.
- Oh, my gosh.
- N.
Y.
P.
D.

No! Leo! Roosevelt Roosevelt Island side.
I need officers there now! - Ow! - My balls! How you doing, Debra? Considering people are trying to kill me and I have no idea why? Did this woman say anything to you in the van this morning? - No.
Not a word to anyone.
- Did the other women talk? - Oh, yeah.
- About what? Guys we were gonna hook up with when we got released.
Oh, no, no.
Don't do it.
Don't This is Special Agent Nelson.
Nelson's a member of our RICO squad.
Oh, she's an agent? How did she pass the field test? Top of my class at Quantico.
I'm sure you were on top of something.
Sorry about kicking you in the family jewels earlier.
- Hmm.
- Can I do something to help? Maybe a little massage down there? A massage would be nice.
- I need to talk to her.
- You know what, I just started the interview.
- Well, maybe I can sit in.
- I don't think so, no.
But I'll tell you what.
You can have my sloppy seconds.
He must have done her wrong, or she's just a bitch.
A lot of the first.
Maybe a little bit of the second.
We have Interpol files, C.
I.
's out in the field.
- We might help you solve your case.
- Wow, thank you.
But you know what? I've worked with the F.
B.
I.
before.
This is how it goes down I do all the grunt work, and then you guys take all the credit.
So you can have Debra when I'm through.
Okay.
Over there.
- Hey.
What? - What is the matter with you? - Blair's just trying to help.
- Blair? Oh, that figures.
She's the whore you slept with, isn't she? Oh.
No, she's not the woman I made that mistake with, Cat.
You sure Kristin Malone didn't say anything to you? Talked about family, friends? Places she'd like to go? - She didn't talk to me.
- Okay.
What about Ellie Wilson? She was bragging that her cellmate had a connection for some really good heroin.
She couldn't wait to score some China White.
She said it was gonna be her first stop when she got out.
This one might help you find this one.
- Why do you say that? - They ran off together when the van was ambushed.
I think we need to pay Ellie's cellmate a visit.
- We, Mr.
Claustrophobia? - Mm-hmm.
Rikers is a detention center, on an island.
- Maybe I'll sit this one out.
- Yeah.
- You could sit it out with me.
- Absolutely not.
Detective Sullivan, 125th.
Desi? I hear you're looking for my runaway "cellie.
" Uh, can we have a minute, please? I need the name and address of the China White hookup you gave to Ellie.
You must want Ellie pretty bad.
There are things that I want too.
_ _ What happened in there? - Nothing.
Nothing happened.
- Come on.
Something happened.
I can see it in your eyes.
Don't give me the "eyes" crap.
Cat.
She wouldn't give you the information until you gave her something.
Now, what did What did you give her? I didn't give her anything.
I've been in prison, you know.
I know how it works.

Just All right, look.
Head to Logan Avenue.

- Did you think about that? Captain Baker and your mom - I don't want to hear anything.

And they jumped out of the car.
I tried to chase them.
Just don't say anything.
- Do you ever knock? - No.
- Would you like to give it a try? - No.
What's the deal with the escapees? - It's gonna take some time.
- Okay, you don't have time.
- Especially if Kell's looking for them.
- I know.
- I-I need to ask a favor.
- No.
No favors.
I want you to ask out my mother.
What? Frankie? Early dinner, tomorrow night, kiss on the cheek good night, and then you go back to your place.
Huh.
I don't know.
It's a little awkward.
- What? - No.
Don't get me wrong.
Your mother's a beautiful woman.
In fact, I think she's a knockout.
- Knockout? - Yeah, a knockout.
You - What? - A knockout, you know? No they The kids, no, they don't say that anymore.
- Really? - It's fine.
I will set it up.
'Cause it's gotta be someplace nice, all right? Not some cop hangout.
- Hey, come on.
- No, I mean it.
Okay? Flowers on the table, tablecloth.
Something with a much lower than that polyester count.
- I got this in a nice place.
- Okay.
- What about my hair? - What about your hair? Do I need a haircut? Do you think I should use that gel Esposito uses? No, God.
Don't use anything he uses.
No, no product at all.
I think you and Frankie would make such a nice couple.
- Actually it was my idea.
- Get outta my face.
The D.
A.
's got some new info for you.
Go.
Don't move.
I'll be right back.
I'm not allowed to park here.
I'll wait out front.
No, you wait here.
There's criminals coming and going out front, and I don't want you giving them rides, helping them escape.
The lot's reserved for district attorneys only.
- I might get a ticket.
- Are you kidding me? The parking enforcement officials are mostly women.
I'm sure you can flirt your way out of it.
I probably could, but what if it's a man? - Tell him you're an N.
Y.
P.
D.
consultant.
- Will that work? No.
_ Hey, Russian surfers.
And who are you? Come on in.
We're actually just getting started.
Have a seat.
I was just saying that we beefed up the visual surveillance on Kell.
We should have our eavesdropping warrant by end of day.
Sounds to me like you're just waiting for the next woman to get killed.
What have you been doing on your end, Detective Sullivan? Glad you asked me.
For starters, we arrested two of Kell's associates in the process of trying to commit a murder.
- What are they saying? - They're not.
- They're not talking at all.
- Maybe you're not using the right incentives.
This isn't Guantánamo here, Detective.
They're not talking.
You should have let me take a crack at the Russians.
I caught them.
Actually, I heard that was your cab driver.
The Kell case is ours.
We have a lot more intel on the organization than you do.
Right, all those Interpol files and C.
I.
's, right? So what are they saying about your missing witness? Well, not saying a lot right now but Meaning you got nothing.
Can I talk to you outside, please? Cat.
Look.
- I didn't sleep with Blair, so you can lay off.
- Forget about Blair.
Did you find out if your undercover agent is the one texting me? Uh, yeah, he is.
- Okay, then I want to talk to him.
- He's undercover.
Then tell him to talk to me, or I'm gonna blow his cover.
You remember that Anabella and I were best friends, right? You're putting this man in danger.
Okay? Not to mention the entire operation.
He's the one who's texting me, all right? Just make the meeting happen.
No! Hear me You scared the life out of me.
- What's wrong with you? - You just broke into a car.
That is illegal.
You break the law, I break the law, and I don't break the law.
- Okay.
- No.
What are you doing? I was investigating.
The Russians paid off the owner of this car.
- He's a court clerk.
- How do you know that? I followed him inside the building to the office of the grand jury clerk.
- The grand jury? - Yeah.
As your consultant I should tell you that, in my opinion, it was the court clerk who tipped off Kell and triggered the ambush.
I'm pretty sure I found the snitch.
- Gimme the cash.
- Sure.
There you go.
Don't ever do that to me again.
Okay.
D'accord.
Now I'll tell you what we're gonna do.
We're closed.
Mr.
Kell sent me.
I don't know who that is.
Now you do.
Don't do that here.
What is this? One of Kell's guys was just here.
And you're not Russian.
Me? Da.
I am black Russian.
- There's no black Russians.
- What? Say it.
I do not exist? Is that what you say? - No, I-I was just saying - Shh! Do not talk.
Listen.
The grand jury case was postponed because the witness didn't show up.
- Is that right? - Possibly.
Mr.
Kell needs to know now which is the new date.
Why didn't the other guy ask me? - That is a good question.
- Yeah.
And I do have an answer.
It is because we Russians, we do not operate this way.
- Wait here.
- Good.
I am waiting.
Tomorrow, 10:00 a.
m.
- 10:00 a.
m.
Tomorrow.
- 10:00 a.
m.
right.
- Spasibo.
- Righto.
Mr.
Kell sends his appreciation.
Oh, and so does the N.
Y.
P.
D.
, buddy.
- What? - Ta-da.
Sullivan, 125th.
I heard the entire conversation Mr.
Talifero.
So you are on the hook for two murders, so you better start talking fast.
- I didn't even know there was money in the envelope.
- Right.
Gregg.
A minute, please.
- And who's he? - Mr.
Snitch.
This is the court clerk who's been feeding information to Vasily Kell.
While you've been twiddling your thumbs, Leo and I busted open the case.
Mostly me.
- Mr.
Talifero here is about to sing an aria.
- I'm very sorry - Shut up! - Then I collar Kell before he kills Kristin Malone and Ellie Wilson.
- Unless - Unless what? A proposition.
Come on in.
Watch it, Skippy.
Sit down right there.
Can't wait to hear this.
- I will let you arrest Kell.
- And why would you do that? Because there's something that I want.
- What? - I want you to find Ellie Wilson for me.
Well, I don't know where she is.
The F.
B.
I.
has surveillance assets that I can only dream about.
Come on, Gregg.
You got yourself a deal.
Let's go.
Do you trust Gregg to keep his promise? Yeah, I do.
Hey, Bodhi! Didn't quite end like the movie, did it? Sullivan.
I'm on my way.
Kristin Malone was just spotted by the boathouse in Prospect Park.
Kristin.
Kristin.
It's okay.
They can't hurt you anymore.
Okay? They were all arrested this morning.
It's okay.
The clerk, ah, he spilled his guts.
He got paid a hundred thousand dollars to tip Kell off about when his Paula Poe witness would be testifying to the grand jury.
- Any word on Ellie Wilson? - No, nothing.
It was nice how you handed Gregg that collar.
You want to tell me how that happened? Yeah, we played Rock-Paper-Scissors.
Oh, you two gonna patch things up, are you, Cat? - Don't you have a date? An early dinner.
- You think this is a good idea? It's not too late to call this whole thing off, Cat.
Seriously.
My mother is looking very forward to this.
You committed, John, so man up.
I'm joking, Cat.
I'm actually looking forward to going.
- Where are you taking her? - Maison Previni, truffles and champagne.
Good.
Nice.
- Yeah? You think she'll like it? - Yeah.
- You're footing the bill.
- I know.
- No.
Even if she offers to split it.
- Even if she offers to split it, I will pay the bill.
- Hundred percent? - Hundred percent and 20% percent gratuity.
- Will you go do some police work, please? - Maybe I will.
Okay.
It was so nice of you to drive me for my date, Leo.
My pleasure.
You look fantastic tonight, Frankie.
- Oh.
- Very sexy.
I know you say that to all the girls, but I'll take any compliment I can get.
Thank you, sweetie.
- Oh, here, hang on.
- Oh, no.
The ride's on me.
You have a nice time.
And call me if you need a ride back home, okay? Oh, well, if everything goes well, I won't.
Have fun.
- What are you doing here? - What are you doing here? I gave Frankie a ride to her date.
I was just making sure that the captain found the place.
You're spying on your mother.
I am not.
I am a detective.
I am curious by nature.
Yeah, that's great.
Thank you.
Oh! What's the matter? I think that Cat is watching us.
- Where? - No, don't turn.
No, just just let her enjoy it.
- Do you think Cat knows? - No, she doesn't have a clue.
My God, she's a detective.
Well, and you know what the funny thing is? Now that she thinks she set us up, she can't disapprove, right? Can we please go now? I'm gonna just hang out for a bit and make sure they're having a good time.
Look, they'll either hit it off tonight or they won't.
There's nothing you can do about it.
My mother has been through so much, okay.
Just to see her in there having fun makes me feel so much better.
But how this date ends is none of your business.
Come on.
Let's go, okay? Oh, come on.
Can I have a lift home at least? Sure.
On the meter.
It's Gregg.
He's keeping his promise.
- That's her.
- Yeah.
Look, I really appreciate you doing this.
Call me when you find out about the meeting place tomorrow with the undercover.
- I will.
- All right.
- She's just a kid.
- Yeah, who knows what happened to my father.
Right.
I'm Detective Sullivan.
I would like to ask you a couple of questions.
That night that cop was killed? What happened under the bridge? That cop was my father, Ellie.
I'm sorry.
I'll only tell you what I saw if you let me go.
- I can't do that.
- Maybe for this you can, Cat.
Hmm? Fine.
I'll let you go.
Tomorrow.
You're spending the night with me and no drugs.
All Virginia-bousengers please board.
There you go, one-way ticket to Virginia.
You think my parents will take me back? - Speaking as a parent, I would.
- Alright.
Now you're gonna tell me everything that you know about what happened under that bridge.
The cop who was killed wasn't driving.
Someone else was.
The two cars, they pulled up next to each other, and your father climbed into the other car and - That's it? - Last call Virginia-bound passengers.
As the car your father got out of drove off, he turned on his police lights.
Are you sure they were police lights? A cop drove your father there.
- Can you identify the driver? - I have to go.
- Please let me go.
- No.
Look, was he black? Was he white? It was too dark.
If I don't go now, I'm never gonna get clean.
- She knows more than she's saying.
- No, she doesn't.
- Where are we meeting? - You're not.
We just found our undercover agent's body in an abandoned van.
She left me a message last week, saying she was going to Vermont for the weekend.
She had a wonderful time.
- How do you know? - She told me.
- When? - Yesterday.
She's very upset that you haven't called or - dropped by to check on her.
- Yeah, I've been busy.
You know, I think she's lonely.
She's even asked me how I thought you would react to her dating.
- Dating? - Yeah.
And she wants to know who the man you've been seeing is.
How does she know that I've been seeing somebody? Ah! I knew it.
- I knew it.
- Oh.
Come on.
- What's his name? - You know what? That is none of your business.
Rhys.
Okay? And we went out to dinner.
That is all.
- Rhys.
- Yeah.
- Rhys? - Yeah.
- What kind of a name is that? - It's English.
_ _ What did you just say? - He's a Brit.
- Yeah.
And they're so pompous and arrogant.
Well, you should hear what he - has to say about the French.
- What? Snobby, rude, arrogant, condescending.
And, God, what was the last one? Wait, wait, don't tell me.
Passive-aggressive.
That was my favorite one.
- I want to meet him.
- That's not gonna happen.
- Are you embarrassed by Rhys? - No.
It's not gonna happen.
What's wrong with your British boyfriend? Fat? Ugly? Bad teeth? Oh, my God, he's fat, ugly, and he got bad teeth.
Those two S.
U.
V.
's just pulled in front and - behind that correction van.
- Yeah, I saw that.
- Something's wrong.
- Stay on him.
This is not good.
Whoa! They're breaking prisoners out.
- We gotta get out of here! - What are you doing? - Turn it around! Stop the car! - Are you crazy? Turn this car around now! What are you doing? You're outgunned! Caitlyn! I can't believe I'm doing this! Cat, get down! Stop! Oh! Let go of me! What are you doing? I'm saving your life! Man down! - They got away because of you.
- I'm here to help.
How bad are you hit? You're okay.
You're going to be fine, Ferguson.
Can you hear me, Ferguson? Ferguson! All right, 10-13.
I got an officer down.
I repeat, officer down.
Esposito, what do you got? Driver and one of the prisoners are D.
O.
A.
But it looks like Officer Ferguson is gonna make it.
Both S.
U.
V.
's, though, were reported stolen last night.
This was a well-executed plan.
These guys were pros.
They got five prisoners coming from Rikers Island to criminal court.
Suzanne Correa she's the dead one Paula Poe, Alicia Dean, Debra Salvo.
Eleanor Wilson.
- You know one of 'em? What? - Tell her, Esposito.
Tell me what? Eleanor Wilson was the only witness to your father's murder.
She's the "Ellie" that I was looking for in Coney Island? - It's not your case, Cat.
- No, no, no, no, no.
This was a hit.
And I bet you anything that the Capellas had something to do with this.
Damn it! If this was a hit on the witness to your father's murder, how come she is the one dead and not the witness? Well, we surprised them before they had a chance to take out Ellie Wilson.
Suzanne was just hit in the cross fire.
Sorry, but I think your anger might be clouding your judgment here.
My anger has nothing to do with my judgment.
Okay.
Ellie Wilson, 19.
Mother and father live in Virginia.
No contact with them since she ran away from home at age 15 with a man she met on the Internet.
Picked up on drug charges.
Alicia Dean, 25.
Armed robbery.
Has an arrest record that dates back to childhood.
No known relatives.
That's Debra Salvo, 28.
Picked up on prostitution charges.
Her brother lives in Manhattan.
Okay, Suzanne Correa, who is deceased.
- And - Paula Poe.
No information.
No age given.
No photo.
All these women had court dates today, except Paula Poe.
Why is that? She has no file.
Prisoners don't get transported without a file.
You know that.
Paula Poe Paula Poe is a variant of "Jane Doe.
" Bingo.
Didn't I tell you your anger was - clouding your judgment? - Shut up.
Officer involved shooting.
I need your incident report, Sullivan.
No problem as long as I can see your file on Ellie Wilson.
No idea who you're talking about.
The only witness to my father's murder, who just happened to be in the van that was hit.
You know you're gonna get yourself killed, Sullivan, just like your old man did.
Are you threatening me? I want that report before the end of the day.
Sullivan.
- You find the prisoners yet? - Why are you yelling? Because you're hard of hearing.
I will call you as soon as we know something, okay? Do not hang up on me.
- You know, I've been thinking - That's a first.
We should hook your mother up with Captain Baker.
Are you insane, or do you have a head injury that I'm not aware of? I just think they would make such a cute couple.
Don't you think? I just threw up in my mouth.
- Really? - No, it's a figure of speech.
If Captain Baker had a woman in his life, he wouldn't yell so much, - if you know what I mean.
- That's my mother you're talking about.
You think she's too old to desire a man? No, you know what? I don't really think about it at all.
In fact, I make it a point to not ever let those thoughts enter my mind.
And unfortunately, they're there.
It's Blech! Sullivan.
Where? I'm on my way.
Two patrol officers think they found one of our escapees under the Queensboro Bridge.
- That's good.
- She's dead.
- That's bad.
- You better hope that it's not Ellie Wilson.
- Me? What did I do? - You turned around.
She never would have escaped if you would have listened to me.
And you would be dead if I hadn't pushed you out of the way.
If you want to start running into gunfire and standing in front of speeding cars like you're Wonder Woman or something, that's your problem.
But I have my son to think about.
Maybe you should start thinking about your mother too.
What about my mother? She's already lost her husband.
She doesn't want to lose her daughter too.
Whoo! New York Times Village Voice Dumb advice Make the choice Top billin' Sky's the limit Brooklyn party I am in it She was just layin' in here.
When we saw her prison denims, - we figured we better call you.
- Thanks.
- What do you got? - It's Alicia Dean.
Double tap to the back of the head.
Executed Capella-style.
Why would the Capellas wanna kill Alicia Dean? Maybe they didn't know what Ellie Wilson looks like.
Maybe they just knew she was in the correction's van.
Cat, Anabella Capella is not even in town.
How do you know? Because I followed through with your hair-brained theory.
- So you believe me? - No.
It's one of the most ludicrous things you ever said.
Anabella Cappella's the new godfather.
- Captain Baker.
- DelVeccio.
- Which one is it? - Alicia Dean.
Two bullets to the back of the head.
Executed Capella-style.
- Capella? You're way off base, Sullivan.
- What? This is Russian mob.
Vasily Kell to be exact.
Drugs, prostitution, arms trafficking, murder for hire.
Their crew runs out of Brighton Beach.
All the Russian cab drivers are afraid of them.
Hi.
I'm Leo Romba.
I'm consulting.
- A.
D.
A.
Winters.
May Winters.
- Hi.
- Hi, Cat.
- Hey, DelVeccio.
You mind telling us what the hell is going on here? We opened a grand jury case against Kell.
One of the inmates in the van, Paula Poe, was being transported to the courthouse to testify against him.
She's our star witness.
Her real name is Kristin Malone.
So what was she testifying to? She used to work as a dispatcher at a freight company.
She forged a bill of lading so that Kell could take a delivery of a semi.
- Stolen M-4's, MK-12's, Gavelins - Gavelins? That's military ordinance.
Exactly.
So if our star witness can tie Kell to this shipment, then we cripple the organization, and they go away for life.
They wanna kill Kristin Malone in order to keep her from testifying? - Yes.
- So why did Alicia Dean end up dead? Kell doesn't know what Kristin Malone looks like.
We got that part down.
Kell knew the witness was on his way to the courthouse this morning.
- You have a leak.
- Yeah, I'm aware of that.
So Vasily is going to hunt down and kill every woman who escaped.
Yes.
Including the only witness to my father's murder.
Exactly.
Would you excuse me? You need to find Kristin Malone before Kell kills her.
And you need to do it before That's when the grand jury reconvenes.
The judge has given us 24 hours to produce a witness, or he's gonna throw the whole case out.
Ellie's parents haven't heard from her since she was 17.
She called asking for money.
They didn't even know that she was in the city until I told them.
Debra Salvo's brother says he hasn't heard from her.
I got people watching him, but so far I got nothing.
The only thing we got on Kristin Malone is her name, her photo and the fact she was in protective custody for 2 months.
I don't think she'd go anywhere she'd be recognized.
- Oh, man.
Why doesn't she turn herself in? - Would you? I mean, they hit a corrections van in broad daylight.
There's a snitch in the D.
A.
's office.
Somebody tipped the Russians off.
She's scared.
She doesn't know where to go or who to trust.
Cat, I want you to pay the Russians a visit.
You let 'em know we're onto them.
See if they tip their hand.
Eddie? I want you on Salvo's brother.
- He so much as moves, I want to know.
- What about Ellie Wilson? We got every unit in the city looking for her.
Maybe we'll get lucky.
She's a druggie.
Maybe she needs a fix.
Well, we're turning every crack house and shooting gallery in the city upside down looking for her.
We'll find her, Cat.
Hey, guys.
How's the surf? - Totally tubular.
- Well, you must be Vasily.
- In the flesh.
- Yeah.
- What can I do for you, Detective? - I know who you are.
I'm just a surfer who follows the waves.
I live life one wave at a time.
"If you want the ultimate" "You got to be willing to pay the ultimate price.
" "It's not tragic to die doing what you love.
" - I love that guy.
Bodhi, he's my hero.
- Me too.
- Oh, my God.
Point Break is such a fantastic movie.
- I'm sorry.
Are you done? A corrections van was hit this morning.
So? What does that have to do with us? We're surfers.
- I've never heard of Russian surfers.
- Really? There are a lot of us.
Huh? Me and my crew, we travel the world, following the waves, but we always come back here because we get homesick for Brighton Beach.
Does your crew also get homesick for the gulag? A French cop with an eye for prison tattoos in Brooklyn.
Where were you this morning? I was surfing all day in Rockaway.
How would you like to surf with me, hmm? You look like you have a low center of gravity.
Excuse me.
Sullivan.
Debra Salvo's brother just withdrew a pile of cash from a bank on Second Avenue.
Now he's heading uptown, and I'm not the only one that saw him.
They took off when they saw me.
- Da.
- Come to Rooswelt, they saw the girl.
Da.
- You know, you remind me of Johnny Utah.
- Really? The found the girl.
We gotta go.
All right.
Stay on him.
I'm on my way.
Was it something important? - Surfing report.
- Oh.
It's gonna be an awesome week.
I bet it is.
Well, we'll talk to you later.
I look forward to it, Detective Sullivan.
"I know it's hard for you Johnny.
I know you want me so bad, it's like acid in your mouth.
" Huh? It was Bodhi, right? That's what that was? - Of course.
- It's hilarious.
- Any sign of Debra? - Not yet.
That's her brother there sitting on the bench.
That's her in the gray hoodie.
He just gave her money.
She's leaving town.
- Oh, my gosh! - Stop now, bitch! - Run, Debra! Run! - Stay here! I'm not staying here.
- Oh, my gosh.
- N.
Y.
P.
D.
! - I got her! - Oh, no, you don't! Debra! We're trying to help! Oh, no.
No! Leo! Roosevelt Roosevelt Island side.
I need officers there now! - Ow! - My balls! How you doing, Debra? Considering people are trying to kill me and I have no idea why? Did this woman say anything to you in the van this morning? - No.
Not a word to anyone.
- Did the other women talk? - Oh, yeah.
- About what? Guys we were gonna hook up with when we got released.
Oh, no, no.
Don't do it.
Don't This is Special Agent Nelson.
Nelson's a member of our RICO squad.
Oh, she's an agent? How did she pass the field test? Top of my class at Quantico.
I'm sure you were on top of something.
Sorry about kicking you in the family jewels earlier.
- Hmm.
- Can I do something to help? Maybe a little massage down there? A massage would be nice.
- I need to talk to her.
- You know what, I just started the interview.
- Well, maybe I can sit in.
- I don't think so, no.
But I'll tell you what.
You can have my sloppy seconds.
He must have done her wrong, or she's just a bitch.
A lot of the first.
Maybe a little bit of the second.
We have Interpol files, C.
I.
's out in the field.
- We might help you solve your case.
- Wow, thank you.
But you know what? I've worked with the F.
B.
I.
before.
This is how it goes down I do all the grunt work, and then you guys take all the credit.
So you can have Debra when I'm through.
Okay.
Over there.
- Hey.
What? - What is the matter with you? - Blair's just trying to help.
- Blair? Oh, that figures.
She's the whore you slept with, isn't she? Oh.
No, she's not the woman I made that mistake with, Cat.
You sure Kristin Malone didn't say anything to you? Talked about family, friends? Places she'd like to go? - She didn't talk to me.
- Okay.
What about Ellie Wilson? She was bragging that her cellmate had a connection for some really good heroin.
She couldn't wait to score some China White.
She said it was gonna be her first stop when she got out.
This one might help you find this one.
- Why do you say that? - They ran off together when the van was ambushed.
I think we need to pay Ellie's cellmate a visit.
- We, Mr.
Claustrophobia? - Mm-hmm.
Rikers is a detention center, on an island.
- Maybe I'll sit this one out.
- Yeah.
- You could sit it out with me.
- Absolutely not.
Detective Sullivan, 125th.
Desi? I hear you're looking for my runaway "cellie.
" Uh, can we have a minute, please? I need the name and address of the China White hookup you gave to Ellie.
You must want Ellie pretty bad.
There are things that I want too.
_ _ What happened in there? - Nothing.
Nothing happened.
- Come on.
Something happened.
I can see it in your eyes.
Don't give me the "eyes" crap.
Cat.
She wouldn't give you the information until you gave her something.
Now, what did What did you give her? I didn't give her anything.
I've been in prison, you know.
I know how it works.
Nothing! She made you give her your underwear.
Oh, my God.
_ What? Petite culotte, it's your new nickname.
Just All right, look.
Head to Logan Avenue.
- She gave me an address.
- Do you know what she's doing with your underwear? I have no idea, and I don't want to know.
Do you want me to stop at a store so we can buy some underwear? Hi, Mom.
- Hey, Cat lost her underwear.
- Shut up.
You going commando again? No, I'm not.
Why Why are you calling? Well, I was just wondering what you would think about me dating? - Who? - No one.
Just, you know, I was wondering what you'd think.
Um, well, it hasn't really been very long since Dad Well, feels like an eternity to me.
- Hey, I know a guy.
- No, I don't need you to set me up.
I can find my own man.
Thank you very much.
No, no, no.
He is a nice guy, okay? You'll like him.
He is handsome and dynamic, and he's got a really big - Yes? - Heart.
Any other sizable organs? - Oh, God, Mom.

I'm not dead.
- Okay, look, just I will set it up, okay? - No, I really No, I gotta go.
I will call you with the time and place.
It's gonna be an early dinner, okay? I love you.
Cat, I Cat? So now you think it's a good idea to set up your mother with Captain Baker.
No, but its better than her cruising bars.
At least now I can control the situation.
How are you going to control the situation - when they end up in bed together? - Oh, no, no, no, no.
- Did you think about that? Captain Baker and your mom - I don't want to hear anything.
will have to go to bed together.
She's a grown woman and she has her needs.
- Stop talking about it now.
Now! - She has needs.
- Sorry, but it's true.
Take a look at that.
- Shh! Stop it! All right.
Stay in the taxi.
Hey, I'm a consultant now, remember? Okay, I'm sorry.
- Then we should have a consultation.
- Of course.
Yeah.
- Do you think you should come inside with me? - Of course, yes.
I disagree.
Stay in the taxi.
_ Hey, don't get your panties in a bunch.
Oh, I forgot, you're not wearing any.
Billy? Billy.
Yo, Billy.

All right.
Coney Island.
What? Are you kidding me? Leo! - Hey, you're okay? - Just fine.
- You don't look fine.
- Just take us to the ferry.
Might me asking who you guys are meeting with? - Huh? Boyfriend, - We're going to see the fish.
- Oh, "fish.
" - Yeah.
So there is a chance I can get a little phone nuber - right there? That's right? - No, you can't.
I can give you my phone number and a lot more if you hook me up.
- He's a cop! - No, no, no, I'm not a cop! I'm not a cop! Girls, come back! Come-Come back! I'm not a cop! Cat's gonna be really mad at me for this! - What happened? - They ran away.
- Why didn't you run after them? - I did.
I tried.
Look, I was stuck in traffic.
And they jumped out of the car.
I tried to chase them.
Just don't say anything.
- Do you ever knock? - No.
- Would you like to give it a try? - No.
What's the deal with the escapees? - It's gonna take some time.
- Okay, you don't have time.
- Especially if Kell's looking for them.
- I know.
- I-I need to ask a favor.
- No.
No favors.
I want you to ask out my mother.
What? Frankie? Early dinner, tomorrow night, kiss on the cheek good night, and then you go back to your place.
Huh.
I don't know.
It's a little awkward.
- What? - No.
Don't get me wrong.
Your mother's a beautiful woman.
In fact, I think she's a knockout.
- Knockout? - Yeah, a knockout.
You - What? - A knockout, you know? No they The kids, no, they don't say that anymore.
- Really? - It's fine.
I will set it up.
'Cause it's gotta be someplace nice, all right? Not some cop hangout.
- Hey, come on.
- No, I mean it.
Okay? Flowers on the table, tablecloth.
Something with a much lower than that polyester count.
- I got this in a nice place.
- Okay.
- What about my hair? - What about your hair? Do I need a haircut? Do you think I should use that gel Esposito uses? No, God.
Don't use anything he uses.
No, no product at all.
I think you and Frankie would make such a nice couple.
- Actually it was my idea.
- Get outta my face.
The D.
A.
's got some new info for you.
Go.
Don't move.
I'll be right back.
I'm not allowed to park here.
I'll wait out front.
No, you wait here.
There's criminals coming and going out front, and I don't want you giving them rides, helping them escape.
The lot's reserved for district attorneys only.
- I might get a ticket.
- Are you kidding me? The parking enforcement officials are mostly women.
I'm sure you can flirt your way out of it.
I probably could, but what if it's a man? - Tell him you're an N.
Y.
P.
D.
consultant.
- Will that work? No.
_ Hey, Russian surfers.
And who are you? Come on in.
We're actually just getting started.
Have a seat.
I was just saying that we beefed up the visual surveillance on Kell.
We should have our eavesdropping warrant by end of day.
Sounds to me like you're just waiting for the next woman to get killed.
What have you been doing on your end, Detective Sullivan? Glad you asked me.
For starters, we arrested two of Kell's associates in the process of trying to commit a murder.
- What are they saying? - They're not.
- They're not talking at all.
- Maybe you're not using the right incentives.
This isn't Guantánamo here, Detective.
They're not talking.
You should have let me take a crack at the Russians.
I caught them.
Actually, I heard that was your cab driver.
The Kell case is ours.
We have a lot more intel on the organization than you do.
Right, all those Interpol files and C.
I.
's, right? So what are they saying about your missing witness? Well, not saying a lot right now but Meaning you got nothing.
Can I talk to you outside, please? Cat.
Look.
- I didn't sleep with Blair, so you can lay off.
- Forget about Blair.
Did you find out if your undercover agent is the one texting me? Uh, yeah, he is.
- Okay, then I want to talk to him.
- He's undercover.
Then tell him to talk to me, or I'm gonna blow his cover.
You remember that Anabella and I were best friends, right? You're putting this man in danger.
Okay? Not to mention the entire operation.
He's the one who's texting me, all right? Just make the meeting happen.
No! Hear me You scared the life out of me.
- What's wrong with you? - You just broke into a car.
That is illegal.
You break the law, I break the law, and I don't break the law.
- Okay.
- No.
What are you doing? I was investigating.
The Russians paid off the owner of this car.
- He's a court clerk.
- How do you know that? I followed him inside the building to the office of the grand jury clerk.
- The grand jury? - Yeah.
As your consultant I should tell you that, in my opinion, it was the court clerk who tipped off Kell and triggered the ambush.
I'm pretty sure I found the snitch.
- Gimme the cash.
- Sure.
There you go.
Don't ever do that to me again.
Okay.
D'accord.
Now I'll tell you what we're gonna do.
We're closed.
Mr.
Kell sent me.
I don't know who that is.
Now you do.
Don't do that here.
What is this? One of Kell's guys was just here.
And you're not Russian.
Me? Da.
I am black Russian.
- There's no black Russians.
- What? Say it.
I do not exist? Is that what you say? - No, I-I was just saying - Shh! Do not talk.
Listen.
The grand jury case was postponed because the witness didn't show up.
- Is that right? - Possibly.
Mr.
Kell needs to know now which is the new date.
Why didn't the other guy ask me? - That is a good question.
- Yeah.
And I do have an answer.
It is because we Russians, we do not operate this way.
- Wait here.
- Good.
I am waiting.
Tomorrow, 10:00 a.
m.
- 10:00 a.
m.
Tomorrow.
- 10:00 a.
m.
right.
- Spasibo.
- Righto.
Mr.
Kell sends his appreciation.
Oh, and so does the N.
Y.
P.
D.
, buddy.
- What? - Ta-da.
Sullivan, 125th.
I heard the entire conversation Mr.
Talifero.
So you are on the hook for two murders, so you better start talking fast.
- I didn't even know there was money in the envelope.
- Right.
Gregg.
A minute, please.
- And who's he? - Mr.
Snitch.
This is the court clerk who's been feeding information to Vasily Kell.
While you've been twiddling your thumbs, Leo and I busted open the case.
Mostly me.
- Mr.
Talifero here is about to sing an aria.
- I'm very sorry - Shut up! - Then I collar Kell before he kills Kristin Malone and Ellie Wilson.
- Unless - Unless what? A proposition.
Come on in.
Watch it, Skippy.
Sit down right there.
Can't wait to hear this.
- I will let you arrest Kell.
- And why would you do that? Because there's something that I want.
- What? - I want you to find Ellie Wilson for me.
Well, I don't know where she is.
The F.
B.
I.
has surveillance assets that I can only dream about.
Come on, Gregg.
You got yourself a deal.
Let's go.
Do you trust Gregg to keep his promise? Yeah, I do.
Hey, Bodhi! Didn't quite end like the movie, did it? Sullivan.
I'm on my way.
Kristin Malone was just spotted by the boathouse in Prospect Park.
Kristin.
Kristin.
It's okay.
They can't hurt you anymore.
Okay? They were all arrested this morning.
It's okay.
The clerk, ah, he spilled his guts.
He got paid a hundred thousand dollars to tip Kell off about when his Paula Poe witness would be testifying to the grand jury.
- Any word on Ellie Wilson? - No, nothing.
It was nice how you handed Gregg that collar.
You want to tell me how that happened? Yeah, we played Rock-Paper-Scissors.
Oh, you two gonna patch things up, are you, Cat? - Don't you have a date? An early dinner.
- You think this is a good idea? It's not too late to call this whole thing off, Cat.
Seriously.
My mother is looking very forward to this.
You committed, John, so man up.
I'm joking, Cat.
I'm actually looking forward to going.
- Where are you taking her? - Maison Previni, truffles and champagne.
Good.
Nice.
- Yeah? You think she'll like it? - Yeah.
- You're footing the bill.
- I know.
- No.
Even if she offers to split it.
- Even if she offers to split it, I will pay the bill.
- Hundred percent? - Hundred percent and 20% percent gratuity.
- Will you go do some police work, please? - Maybe I will.
Okay.
It was so nice of you to drive me for my date, Leo.
My pleasure.
You look fantastic tonight, Frankie.
- Oh.
- Very sexy.
I know you say that to all the girls, but I'll take any compliment I can get.
Thank you, sweetie.
- Oh, here, hang on.
- Oh, no.
The ride's on me.
You have a nice time.
And call me if you need a ride back home, okay? Oh, well, if everything goes well, I won't.
Have fun.
- What are you doing here? - What are you doing here? I gave Frankie a ride to her date.
I was just making sure that the captain found the place.
You're spying on your mother.
I am not.
I am a detective.
I am curious by nature.
Yeah, that's great.
Thank you.
Oh! What's the matter? I think that Cat is watching us.
- Where? - No, don't turn.
No, just just let her enjoy it.
- Do you think Cat knows? - No, she doesn't have a clue.
My God, she's a detective.
Well, and you know what the funny thing is? Now that she thinks she set us up, she can't disapprove, right? Can we please go now? I'm gonna just hang out for a bit and make sure they're having a good time.
Look, they'll either hit it off tonight or they won't.
There's nothing you can do about it.
My mother has been through so much, okay.
Just to see her in there having fun makes me feel so much better.
But how this date ends is none of your business.
Come on.
Let's go, okay? Oh, come on.
Can I have a lift home at least? Sure.
On the meter.
It's Gregg.
He's keeping his promise.
- That's her.
- Yeah.
Look, I really appreciate you doing this.
Call me when you find out about the meeting place tomorrow with the undercover.
- I will.
- All right.
- She's just a kid.
- Yeah, who knows what happened to my father.
Right.
I'm Detective Sullivan.
I would like to ask you a couple of questions.
That night that cop was killed? What happened under the bridge? That cop was my father, Ellie.
I'm sorry.
I'll only tell you what I saw if you let me go.
- I can't do that.
- Maybe for this you can, Cat.
Hmm? Fine.
I'll let you go.
Tomorrow.
You're spending the night with me and no drugs.
All Virginia-bousengers please board.
There you go, one-way ticket to Virginia.
You think my parents will take me back? - Speaking as a parent, I would.
- Alright.
Now you're gonna tell me everything that you know about what happened under that bridge.
The cop who was killed wasn't driving.
Someone else was.
The two cars, they pulled up next to each other, and your father climbed into the other car and - That's it? - Last call Virginia-bound passengers.
As the car your father got out of drove off, he turned on his police lights.
Are you sure they were police lights? A cop drove your father there.
- Can you identify the driver? - I have to go.
- Please let me go.
- No.
Look, was he black? Was he white? It was too dark.
If I don't go now, I'm never gonna get clean.
- She knows more than she's saying.
- No, she doesn't.
- Where are we meeting? - You're not.
We just found our undercover agent's body in an abandoned van.
