The hunt for Robert is officially over.
- I need Kyle out now.
- You deliver Moses,
- I'll have Kyle out in 24 hours.
- Pave the road.
'Cause Frank Moses is
about to make a mistake.
Lamar took out LJ.
So you know where Lamar is?
[MIKE] I need you to get to
- 864 Eastern Avenue.
- What for?
[MIKE] You're gonna
catch Moses in the act.
- I didn't come here to be a janitor.
- [MUFFLED SHOUTING]
Here I am taking out the
garbage like I'm a fucking child!
What happened, Mike?
[HOBBS] It's impressive.
You pulled it off.
You're saving your brother's life.
- Get your people to back off.
- They need another.
They got the one who fucked it up,
now they need the one who
fed the information to the Crips,
and then I will be free.

All right, that was just a scratch.
Don't make it a fucking thing, spider.
Yeah, I'm trying real hard
to think of a nice way
to tell you to fuck off.
I can't do it.
[IAN] Yeah, well,
that's the meds talking.
All right? I'll see you soon.
All right, Captain, this
is fucking clear-cut here.
All right? This is some
ancient prison fucking payback.
That's all this is. Right, Mikey?
Yeah, it seems to be.
It was just a AB attack,
ordered by Callahan.
That is your escaped prisoner.
- Simple as that.
- Right.
Got two in the slab now.
Yeah, amen and pass the fucking ammo.
Witnesses saw three gunmen.
- [IAN] Captain, they're wrong.
- Are they? All of them?
You know better than anybody else.
Fucking blood on the
streets, bullets in the air,
eyewitness accounts don't mean shit.
Two bad guys down. That's what I know.
That's what I see.
Okay. Got it.

You clock in?
Just about to. Why?
Today your last day.
And we got one more box to check.
And after that,
you're a fucking free man, Kevin.
- For real?
- You know,
I may hit you with a
little severance package.
Ain't no retirement, but
- No, I get it.
- Start of something new.
Thank you, Bunny.
You want to thank
somebody, thank the mayor.
Not a lot of folk can
charm that motherfucker.
You got game escaped my notice.

[GROANS]
This is how he contacts you, right?
It's how you call him?
Where is he?
And speak now, while you
still got fingers left to dial.
- Fuck.
- [MIKE] You're making this
harder than it needs to be, Billy.
You think Callahan would
do the same thing for you,
if roles were reversed?
Yeah. Yeah, he fucking would.
- [MIKE] That right?
- Mm-hmm.
Well, where the hell is he, then?
He could tap in for
you right now, Billy.
Flesh and bone and blood is nothing.
I have a code.
What do you got there?
What you got fucking what?
I have my honor.
Fuck your honor.
[MIKE] Yeah, and fuck your code, Billy.
- Huh?
- [SQUISHING]
[BILLY GROANS]
[MIKE] Was it your code
when you cut off
Shaver's dick and balls?
Was that your honor?
Huh? That it?
- Hey.
- [GRUNTS]
Look at me.
[DARK MUSIC]
I think you can see
that my intentions are clear.
And that your time with me
can be as long as you choose, okay?
So why don't we just save some blood
and a whole lot of agony
and tell me where the fuck Callahan is?
Go fuck yourself.
Oh, man.
[HORN HONKS]
- [IAN] How is he?
- He's in surgery.
Blood loss, tissue damage.
Missed the artery,
though. Nothing major.
Okay, good.
All right, we got a we got a BOLO

- Yeah, no shit.
No, listen to what I'm saying.
We back-channel this shit, Keno.

You're gonna scare the
kids in the street now,
your own mother can't stomach you.
[CRYING] I don't know shit.
For what?
Fucking Callahan? For God's sakes.
He's a fucking coward.
You realize that?
He's left you to do his dirty work.
No, he had his own work to do.
[OMINOUS MUSIC]
Oh, I fucking envy him.
[LAUGHS]
He left you here to die.
Why are you loyal to him?
Loyalty's earned and returned,
you traitor motherfucker.
The brothers would've
run a train on you, Mike,
on the daily, without
Merle watching out for you.
He saved your ass, and now what? Huh?
Is that right?
[GRUNTS]
You think Merle Callahan
gives up the fucking field?
Huh? You think that,
you don't know the man.
Merle ain't no fucking spectator.
He's fucking front lines, man.
[MIKE] Oh.
So, Callahan's in Kingstown, then?
- Is that right?
- [BILLY EXHALES]
[MIKE] I see.
So, what was it he was
just watching all this happen?
He was just watching it all
go down from the shadows?
- Is that it?
- Could be here, could be there.
- He's here.
- [MIKE] Yeah.
Whatever the fuck you think it is
- [MIKE] Okay.
- it is.
What does that mean?
You're doing this, buddy.
You're doing this. Huh?
What the fuck
- does that mean?
- [GRUNTS]
Is he here?

If Callahan's in Kingstown,
KPD's gonna fucking find him.
I don't want him found
by anyone except me, Mike.
They have the manpower,
they're gonna find him, then he's ours.
Until then, there's
nothing for us to do.
Yeah?
Yeah. Hey.
Want me to call Mr. Clean? What?
No, no. Uh, Bunny's
gonna handle that shit.
Just wait for the cleaning crew.

we gonna do for you and yours,
for this new empire.
Scorched-earth.
Yeah.
Kingstown and Detroit aligned.
Take out Bogotá inside and out.
- End this shit proper.

You worry about your business, Mike.
I got this.
It's high noon.
[LINE RINGING]
- Mike.
- Nina,
it is time to lift the lockdown.
Well, that's on my to-do list.
I know why I'm doing it. You care
- to explain your interest?
- There are some times
you have to let something
bleed to cure it.
That's medieval thinking.
It's prison thinking.
Okay. So,
- this is my warning?
- No, you know
this needs to happen, Nina.
So just let it. Let it
bleed and close it up.
Cauterize it, okay? You
know what needs to be done.
Yes, indeed, I do.
Indeed.
