The Beast s01e07 Episode Script
Capone
Previously on "The beast" - This is ultra degree of difficulty.
- Conrad, I make this decision.
Ellis is the right cover.
What the hell is wrong with you? The guy is dirty.
I told Conrad that you could handle this.
Barker's a part of something.
I'm talking about a circle of agents who hire out as a team.
Nothing you need they can't do.
That's what you think.
Our lives depend on our ability to convince someone that we are who we say we are.
I told you you guys are alike.
So how come, uh nobody's gone under to see if I'm bent? Don't ever forget again who you work for, either.
Oh, yeah? And who's that? Me.
What if he was lying? Hey, Ray.
What if you're lying? Now, you may feel like you're drowning, but you're not.
Who can you trust? You can trust your damn case file, and you can trust me.
We all get made sometime.
Just we don't always survive it.
All right.
This is all I got, fellas.
My partner and I Tuesday, we got off at midnight, like normal.
I went home.
He went to his diner, like normal.
This girl he likes works there, Tracy.
I guess Owens he finishes his eggs and he's walking out to his car.
That's when Tracy said she heard some yelling.
So she ran outside, sees Owens fighting some other guy sees Owens getting hit over the head with something.
- You need a minute? - No.
His head starts to bleed.
Tracy screams.
That's when she gets shot at.
Whole window of the diner gets blown out.
Owens, he gets shoved into a car, a white car.
That's all she knows.
Listen, my my partner's been missing for over a day now, and - We'll find him.
- Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Guys, guys, I know you're pumped, but we don't know what this is about yet.
Could have something to do with Owens' personal life, the job, mistaken identity.
We just don't know.
So don't do anything stupid out there.
Don't go knocking too many heads.
Okay.
Let's move.
- We're with you, man.
- Thanks, Mulaskey.
- Delaney, where do you think you're going? - Going back out.
When was the last time you slept? You're in no shape to drive.
Give me your keys.
You! Over here.
Delaney, this is Carlson, from the 23rd.
He rides with you.
- How you doing, Delaney? - I already got a partner.
Look, I'm not trying to take no one's place, all right? I'm just trying to help out here.
Don't let him out of your sight.
Yes, sir.
Hey, Delaney.
You, wait here.
Apache you made bail.
Vicente - good to see you, man.
- Good to be seen.
It's been a long time.
Come on.
Navarro's waiting.
The Beast - 1x07 "Capone" So, you and Owens partners long? Hey, man, neither of us had a choice here, okay? Me, personally see, I've been through a couple of partners.
First guy he quit because a kid died.
The second one he was just up in my business too much, if you know what I mean.
Take me to Spoon's.
You know, if you want, we can swing by your place Second spoon diner.
Superior and Franklin.
Hey, my man.
- Little Beau.
Look at you.
- What's up? - Señor Navarro.
- Looking good, Apache.
It's looking like business is good.
- Who's he? - Capone.
So, they threw you back in for boosting a car.
What can I say? I just ain't worth a shit stealing cars.
- Your brain go soft in Florida? - Well, you know, there was no A/C in those blocks.
Air like water.
- I was sweating my ass - Bet you made somebody a pretty girlfriend, a shiny wet bitch.
High or low? You pick.
- I was only foolin', man.
- A little different now, huh? - Where's the money you owe me? - I love this guy.
Calls us to bail him out and then has the cojones to ask for his cash.
Relax, hombre.
- $35,000.
- The economy's in a recession, man.
- You bought milk lately? - Shouldn't be any problem for you.
- Your bail makes us even.
- I ain't got a lot of options, man.
I got an idea.
What? Good.
- Done? - Pilsen, over by the canals.
- Now let's talk about you.
- My favorite subject.
I've got some new heroin.
It's good, but it's not great.
- It needs a little something.
- No, no, no, no, that's how I got busted in the first place.
Your source was shit last time, and you went down with it.
- I can get you some ephedrine, man.
- Fentanyl's what sells.
You in or you out? - What's my take? - 40%.
Gross or net? I love this guy.
Net.
Get a supply here by the end of day.
- Welcome back, Apache.
- It's good to be back.
Ladies there? Flash your lights twice if you hear me.
Remind me why this is a good idea you being the Apache.
Because that's the way we break this case.
We have a missing cop, and word on the street is Navarro's crew had something to do with it.
Why? Are you worried it's feeling good to me being Apache again? - I'm worried it's feeling too good.
- Well, don't.
I can handle it.
So, now that you're under, have you found anything? There's a new guy in Navarro's crew.
His name is Capone, one of his lieutenants.
He wasn't there four years ago when I was.
- He's got me wondering.
- I'll get what I can on him.
Good.
And what about Ellis? We made sure the Commander partnered Ellis with Delaney.
Delaney, who rode with Owens.
It was Owens who called the FBI the night before he was grabbed.
He called to set a meeting with us.
Something he had to say that he couldn't tell I.
A.
D.
Something big enough to get him shanghaied.
He was abducted, not shanghaied; two very different things.
Phone sheet says about a half-hour before the abduction, Delaney called Owens' cell.
It went straight to voicemail.
So Delaney was calling to, what, say night-night to his partner? Delaney told the task force he was calling to borrow a drill.
He wanted Owens to bring it to work the next day.
If Delaney knew Owens was gonna talk to the FBI the next day, he might have been calling to ask him not to.
- Could be.
- Or he could have called to borrow a drill, and he's really an honest cop.
From Navarro's stable.
Ugly, isn't she? So, go ahead.
You want to take her for a spin? No, no.
No.
So, you got the stuff I asked for? This is all the Fentanyl - evidence had.
Here.
- It better be good.
It is.
Barker, I gotta say this.
Last time you were Apache, it took a long time to get Barker back.
Conrad, stop with the mother-hen routine.
Apache's just another cover.
Oh, uh, one other thing.
It may be nothing.
But you should check out the Canals on Pilsen.
I heard Navarro mention it on the phone.
See ya.
- Nothing new? - Nah.
I mean, who did this partner of yours piss off so bad, anyway? His name is Owens.
What makes you think I'd know? Come on, man.
Owens is your partner.
You know everything about him.
I mean All right.
I.
A.
D.
must have been all over your ass.
Not that they know squat, right? They went after me for 10 hours just 'cause I called Owens the night before.
Why? Working on my deck.
Wanted to borrow some tools.
Have to sell my house, you know? Can't afford it anymore, you know? I do, man.
- You got family? - Yeah, wife and a daughter.
You want to give them a good life, huh? Well, see, the I.
A.
D.
's the same where I'm from.
They don't have a clue what it's like in the real world, right? A good guy like Owens, maybe he tries to feather his nest, - and they act like he's the criminal.
- Hey, don't do that, all right? You don't know Owens.
He's a good guy.
He's honest.
He's proud of the badge.
He's the best thing around, okay? He's better than you, better than me.
Delaney.
Anonymous tip led us to the canals off Pilsen.
Oh, no.
- Find a body? - Not exactly.
The rest of Owens? Torso's in a bag about 100 feet down.
All we found so far.
Give me my keys.
Give me my goddamn keys! Hey, where are you going, man? - Are you receiving audio? - Of course we are.
Get out of the car now.
Come on! Get out! - You're killing me, man.
- The same, right? As requested.
It's good stuff, so they tell me.
- So, what are we playing, boys? - Draw poker.
Man's game.
Looks good, Apache.
Yeah, well, that doesn't.
Looks like I got some business to do now.
- Pull up a chair.
- Are you frontin' me? No, and you know my interest rates.
Then I ain't playing.
So I'm riding with you? Yeah, you need to see the new players out there.
Let's do it.
- That's got to hurt.
- Yeah, and it doesn't work.
- Smellin' good.
- Yeah.
Hit that, brother.
Hey, wait.
Nice bracelet.
That's stylin', man.
Yeah, it's pretty cool, isn't it? It's yours.
- What? - Yeah, take it.
Take it, man.
Thanks, brother.
Yeah.
Check this out.
See that guy? I heard they found his head over by the expressway.
Wonder if he's still got that shit-eating grin on his face.
- Mosca, what's up? - Who's this? He's cool.
He's with me.
And? Later.
Later on.
You know what we need? - Delaney - You were supposed to talk to Owens.
Talk him out of it, not to give him up to Navarro.
- That wasn't supposed to happen.
- Owens was a problem.
Talking to him wouldn't have made a bit of difference, would have only made him more sure he was doing right crying to the FBI.
You get me? I said, you get me? Yeah, I got you, Mulaskey.
Now, I'm not trying to threaten you or anything.
No? That's sure what it sounds like.
I'm just telling you that's how it is.
That's how it'll be if you're not more careful.
You don't keep your mouth shut same thing could happen to you.
Capone, coming your way.
- So, "Apache", huh? - Yeah.
- That is quite a name.
- So is "Savannah".
- Is that where you're from? - Nope.
- No? - I grew up in New Mexico - in a place called Chimay.
- El Santuario de Chimay? The place where miracles happen.
Oh, nobody's ever known that.
- I ain't nobody, sweetie.
- Ohh! Hey, Apache, let me see your knife, yeah? Don't be cutting yourself with that baby.
Apache in the house.
Apache in the house! Apache in the house, baby.
You want to know why they call him the Apache? I'm sure it was just a rumor, but the story goes like this.
- See, someone was late with a delivery.
- No.
Almost tipped off the Feds.
When they got there late, I mean, it was a firestorm.
All right, come on, dude, let go of me.
- Dude? - Hey, Capone.
Yeah, so Apache here, he takes this knife.
And he came up real close to the ass bag's skull.
Right where the skin meets the hair.
And he said: "use your head".
And he took the knife - and began to peel the hair off his head.
- Please don't.
Are you gonna scalp me now? Maybe.
- You're all right, Apache.
- You're not so bad yourself, Capone.
Come here.
- Come on, Stella.
- Elena.
Whatever.
- It's okay.
Don't worry.
- Okay, let's just do this.
Good morning.
No, no, no, no, no.
No coffee.
You know.
A grape fruit juice, please.
So what do you have to tell me so damn early? No.
Capone is a D.
E.
A.
agent? Fred Lopez, from Bloomington, Minnesota.
Almost your age.
Started at Quantico pluck early for undercover.
Went into Navarro's crew a few months after you were "arrested".
And he's been under four years? Wife divorced him last year, missed his dad's funeral.
Sounds about right for the gig.
You, uh you ever think about life after the job, uh? No.
You know, I knew this was a bad idea.
- You as Apache - Look, I'm fine! I'm sure you are.
What is the other option, Conrad? - We make contact with Fred Lopez - No! - Let him close this.
- No! - All right, all right.
- Ellis can't do this alone.
Thanks, darling.
So Ellis is working on getting a confession out of Delaney about who in the Navarro crew killed Owens.
Owens? Owens was tortured.
for hours before he died, right? Burnt with cigarettes, a blow torch They found bits of metal filings under his nails.
Must have put up quite a fight, uh? Must have.
Where's your motorcycle? - Just buy one already.
- I don't want one.
Do not call Fred Lopez's handler.
There's something about this guy You leave it be.
Leave it be.
I'm not trying to threaten you or anything.
No? That's sure what it sounds like.
That's how it is.
That's how it'll be Now, that's Sargeant Mulaskey.
Patrols Navarro's territory.
It's not Delaney, it's Mulaskey - who's got in with Navarro.
- Well done.
So, uh, is that all you got for me? You're all right? - I'm fine.
- You look like hell.
You don't keep your mouth shut - same thing could happen to you.
- Wait, wait.
Some bad idea.
If someone takes a shot at Delaney - "Someone" meaning us.
- Yeah.
Then Mulaskey's gonna think that the Navarro crew don't him anymore.
Okay.
And Delaney? Shake the cage, something's gonna fall loose.
So, uh where would your new partner be, Officer Ellis? Parked at the corner of his local bar.
Which bar? Hey, you know who keeps calling me? Who? Tracy.
- The chick from the dinner? - Yeah.
The one that Owens liked.
Said Owens finally asked her out.
She keeps calling me crying, you know.
Last time she called I hang up on her.
I thought we were going for a drink.
We will.
Gotta fix a leak first.
What are we? Roofers? What are you talking about? There's the leak? I felt so bad, you know, but I couldn't hear it.
Couldn't listen to her crying any more.
Hey, it's not your fault.
I didn't have to hang up on her, though.
Like my dad used to say "You lay down with dogs" We must have had the same old man.
¿Been laying with dogs, Delaney? Put on a sight.
- What do you know about them? - The guy standing is CPD.
Turned into a nervous nelly over the dead cop.
So he knows too much.
Who sent you? Mulaskey.
¿Mulaskey? - You're too much, Apache.
- Come over here.
You know that oath that we take when we graduate from the academy? You know the one - We promise to uphold the law.
- To the best of our ability.
Yeah.
Don't say nothing about honor.
See, that's up to us man.
What lines we cross.
So I will take down the friend first.
Ready? And Hey, man.
This way, this way! This way, this way.
Damn it! Let's get out of here.
Man, oh, man.
I'll call for backup.
No, don't.
- What? - They're after me.
Who's after you, man? What's going on, man? - It's - I nearly just took a bullet for you.
- What's going on? - What's going on is I screwed up.
It started small, you know? We made this bust.
We found a bunch of cash stuffed in the back of this sofa.
Mulaskey tells me, "go on, take it".
And so I do.
But Owens, he's busy.
He's taking these kids over to family service, right? So what, what? Owens didn't know you're on the take? Owens was such a good guy.
He never got it.
But every time we back up Mulaskey, we're making a bust for Navarro.
Navarro kept Mulaskey and me on his payroll.
I got a wife, I got a kid, I have this damn house I can't afford.
I was just trying to get by.
And Owens keeps talking to me about his money problems, how he hates living with his brother.
One night I tell him everything.
Even tell him I got some money saved for him, right? But instead of wanting in, he wants to go to I.
A.
D.
No.
No, man.
He wanted to go to the FBI.
How do you know that? Ellis Dove.
FBI.
You wanna tell me who you really are? You're not gonna shoot me.
Are you sure about that? Yeah.
It ain't something a good DEA agent would do.
What it's been? About four years now you've been under, right? How would you know that? Charles Barker, FBI.
How are you doing? So that's how things work around here, uh? Look, we knew Owens called the Bureau just before he died but we didn't know what he was gonna say.
Mulaskey was supposed to go down to the dinner and try and talk him out of it.
Now Mulaskey is trying to kill you, man.
He almost did.
So, what happens to me? What do I do? Plead out.
Testify.
Relocate.
But you'll still be with your family.
What are your choices, man? Man, I'm glad you're here.
I knew that cop dying would be like taking a stick to a hornets' nest.
Yeah.
And to Navarro's crew chopping up a kid cop is no big thing.
- Mulaskey - Here you go.
Thanks.
It was Mulaskey that called Navarro about Owens.
Navarro sent Vicente to do the job.
The way I hear it, Vicente was just supposed to shoot the kid.
Instead, he gets the brilliant idea to kidnap him and torture him to find out what he knew.
I didn't know about any of it till after.
That's what I figured, because if I mean, if you knew, you would have given us the heads up.
Right.
That kid, Owens, how old was he? God, the way this people think.
Killing Delaney is just the cost of doing business.
And Owens just the tip of the iceberg.
Navarro's a franchise, man.
He's invested in cops like Delaney and Mulaskey.
Twelve detectives, two judges, a prosecutor, half IAD, he's even got a 911 operator.
That's why I stayed under.
The case just kept snowballing.
Now it's ending.
He's my partner.
Didn't I just try to kill you? Yeah, Nice to meet you, too.
Capone.
DEA.
Tells they're a little trigger happy, no? - Sorry about that.
- Yes.
I'm thinking it's about time for a little chat, boys.
And Delaney is willing to go on record about the CPD taking cake bags from Navarro.
Conrad's with him now.
Your operation how does it go from here? All right.
All right, I'll tell you.
It goes down like this When Delaney doesn't show, Mulaskey will move to 'cover my ass' mode.
And he'll order a raid on Navarro.
Yeah, and four years of my work will go straight down the tubes in the twenty or so minutes the raid takes.
My plan was to take everyone down about 8 days from now, at the docks.
A new shipment's coming in and Mulaskey will be there.
But now Now what? Now we take Mulaskey to the station.
The judge, the prosecutor, everyone.
We take everyone down and we do it all on public.
Sends a better message that way.
You're right.
I'll handle it.
What do you mean you'll handle it? I gotta look good here, remember? Guys, professional courtesy.
Four years! This is my life.
All right.
Done.
Thanks, man.
Freeze! Police! Down on the ground! You're never ready even when you see the end coming.
May sound weird, but I'm gonna miss these guys.
Not weird at all.
You get inside their lives, they get inside yours.
Sick part is you got four years invested in bring these guys down when all Vicente needs is a good lawyer.
And he skates.
We gotta have some insurance, some kind of hard evidence to make sure Owens murder sticks to Vicente and to Navarro for ordering the hit.
We make the case against Vicente, he'll give up Navarro.
We still gotta make a case.
Come on, these guys they're your guys, there's gotta be something.
I don't know, what the forensics come up with? Next to nothing.
Metal filings underneath Owen's nails.
Navarro's outfit runs a chop shop.
Worth a look.
Let's do it.
So Owens was tortured.
One would think they wouldn't do it out in the open.
I don't know about this place, man.
This is Vicente's thing.
Oh, man, that smell! Jesus! Well, hello.
Looks like a little spontaneous dental work.
Bingo! Let's hope that's the brand Vicente smokes.
Yeah, I think so.
Well, I'll get a forensic team in here.
Mulaskey.
What am I, the only agent without a new ride? - Mulaskey? - Yeah.
Did the raid go down on Navarro? Yeah.
Owen took care of that.
And the rest of them? Detectives, judges, prosecutors.
Didn't happen.
What was the plan exactly? Well, that to happen.
Where's Barker? With Capone.
C.
S.
U.
is having a fill day with that chop shop.
Heard a lot of problems got solved there.
So I hear.
To Capone.
To Capone.
May he rest in peace.
So, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna stay in Illinois? I haven't though that part ahead.
It will be weird to be Fred Lopez again.
It will be nice to see my daughter, though.
If my ex will let me.
So that in that chop shop, you had you had you said you'd never been in that back room before, right? No, never.
Right, I forgot.
You told me that, I'm stupid.
Why are you asking? How did you know where the matchbook was? I asked you a question.
I wish I could give you answer.
You killed Owens.
I should just shot him at the dinner, that was my mistake.
Yeah, that was your mistake.
I had to find out how much he knew, how much he'd already told the FBI.
So you grabbed him, you burnt him and pulled his teeth out with pliers.
I was trying to roll out this investigation! I couldn't let some rookie cop screw everything up! I had two weeks to go! Two weeks? Bullshit.
Yesterday it was eight days.
Tomorrow it will be a month.
You were never gonna roll this thing up because you have become Capone.
No, man.
You know how you introduced yourself to Ellis? Capone, you said, not Lopez.
You didn't even realize.
You killed Owens so you could keep on being Capone.
You were willing to kill Delaney, you were willing to kill Ellis.
I was with the Apache, I was playing the part.
An agent knows how to miss.
I am an agent! A good one.
Maybe Fred Lopez was.
But you are not.
You tell me how I'm supposed to go from all this to stand in a barbecue saying "hey, neighbor it's time to prune your trees".
I don't know how.
You tell me, man.
Go ahead.
I got nothing to lose either.
I killed Mulaskey this morning.
It was so easy.
One shot.
And what's one more, right? Right.
I want you to take your gun.
No.
Take out your gun! You want me to kill you? Yes.
One shot.
And let you off the hook? Please.
I can't do it, man.
You can live through this if you just get to tomorrow.
How? You tell me how.
See? There is no answer.
Take out your gun! Thank you.
Could have killed you.
What happened? I thought he was one of us.
Don't worry.
It will go down as justified.
No joke, he was about to shoot you.
No, he wasn't going to shoot me.
What did you say? You did him a favor.
He wanted to die.
Right before you walked in, he asked me to kill him.
You could have stopped me and you didn't? - Why did you let me take the shot? - Because it needed to be done.
Why didn't you do it yourself then? Just call it in.
Yeah, is Savannah available? No? No, no, no, no.
That's ok.
Nobody else.
Thank you.
- Conrad, I make this decision.
Ellis is the right cover.
What the hell is wrong with you? The guy is dirty.
I told Conrad that you could handle this.
Barker's a part of something.
I'm talking about a circle of agents who hire out as a team.
Nothing you need they can't do.
That's what you think.
Our lives depend on our ability to convince someone that we are who we say we are.
I told you you guys are alike.
So how come, uh nobody's gone under to see if I'm bent? Don't ever forget again who you work for, either.
Oh, yeah? And who's that? Me.
What if he was lying? Hey, Ray.
What if you're lying? Now, you may feel like you're drowning, but you're not.
Who can you trust? You can trust your damn case file, and you can trust me.
We all get made sometime.
Just we don't always survive it.
All right.
This is all I got, fellas.
My partner and I Tuesday, we got off at midnight, like normal.
I went home.
He went to his diner, like normal.
This girl he likes works there, Tracy.
I guess Owens he finishes his eggs and he's walking out to his car.
That's when Tracy said she heard some yelling.
So she ran outside, sees Owens fighting some other guy sees Owens getting hit over the head with something.
- You need a minute? - No.
His head starts to bleed.
Tracy screams.
That's when she gets shot at.
Whole window of the diner gets blown out.
Owens, he gets shoved into a car, a white car.
That's all she knows.
Listen, my my partner's been missing for over a day now, and - We'll find him.
- Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Guys, guys, I know you're pumped, but we don't know what this is about yet.
Could have something to do with Owens' personal life, the job, mistaken identity.
We just don't know.
So don't do anything stupid out there.
Don't go knocking too many heads.
Okay.
Let's move.
- We're with you, man.
- Thanks, Mulaskey.
- Delaney, where do you think you're going? - Going back out.
When was the last time you slept? You're in no shape to drive.
Give me your keys.
You! Over here.
Delaney, this is Carlson, from the 23rd.
He rides with you.
- How you doing, Delaney? - I already got a partner.
Look, I'm not trying to take no one's place, all right? I'm just trying to help out here.
Don't let him out of your sight.
Yes, sir.
Hey, Delaney.
You, wait here.
Apache you made bail.
Vicente - good to see you, man.
- Good to be seen.
It's been a long time.
Come on.
Navarro's waiting.
The Beast - 1x07 "Capone" So, you and Owens partners long? Hey, man, neither of us had a choice here, okay? Me, personally see, I've been through a couple of partners.
First guy he quit because a kid died.
The second one he was just up in my business too much, if you know what I mean.
Take me to Spoon's.
You know, if you want, we can swing by your place Second spoon diner.
Superior and Franklin.
Hey, my man.
- Little Beau.
Look at you.
- What's up? - Señor Navarro.
- Looking good, Apache.
It's looking like business is good.
- Who's he? - Capone.
So, they threw you back in for boosting a car.
What can I say? I just ain't worth a shit stealing cars.
- Your brain go soft in Florida? - Well, you know, there was no A/C in those blocks.
Air like water.
- I was sweating my ass - Bet you made somebody a pretty girlfriend, a shiny wet bitch.
High or low? You pick.
- I was only foolin', man.
- A little different now, huh? - Where's the money you owe me? - I love this guy.
Calls us to bail him out and then has the cojones to ask for his cash.
Relax, hombre.
- $35,000.
- The economy's in a recession, man.
- You bought milk lately? - Shouldn't be any problem for you.
- Your bail makes us even.
- I ain't got a lot of options, man.
I got an idea.
What? Good.
- Done? - Pilsen, over by the canals.
- Now let's talk about you.
- My favorite subject.
I've got some new heroin.
It's good, but it's not great.
- It needs a little something.
- No, no, no, no, that's how I got busted in the first place.
Your source was shit last time, and you went down with it.
- I can get you some ephedrine, man.
- Fentanyl's what sells.
You in or you out? - What's my take? - 40%.
Gross or net? I love this guy.
Net.
Get a supply here by the end of day.
- Welcome back, Apache.
- It's good to be back.
Ladies there? Flash your lights twice if you hear me.
Remind me why this is a good idea you being the Apache.
Because that's the way we break this case.
We have a missing cop, and word on the street is Navarro's crew had something to do with it.
Why? Are you worried it's feeling good to me being Apache again? - I'm worried it's feeling too good.
- Well, don't.
I can handle it.
So, now that you're under, have you found anything? There's a new guy in Navarro's crew.
His name is Capone, one of his lieutenants.
He wasn't there four years ago when I was.
- He's got me wondering.
- I'll get what I can on him.
Good.
And what about Ellis? We made sure the Commander partnered Ellis with Delaney.
Delaney, who rode with Owens.
It was Owens who called the FBI the night before he was grabbed.
He called to set a meeting with us.
Something he had to say that he couldn't tell I.
A.
D.
Something big enough to get him shanghaied.
He was abducted, not shanghaied; two very different things.
Phone sheet says about a half-hour before the abduction, Delaney called Owens' cell.
It went straight to voicemail.
So Delaney was calling to, what, say night-night to his partner? Delaney told the task force he was calling to borrow a drill.
He wanted Owens to bring it to work the next day.
If Delaney knew Owens was gonna talk to the FBI the next day, he might have been calling to ask him not to.
- Could be.
- Or he could have called to borrow a drill, and he's really an honest cop.
From Navarro's stable.
Ugly, isn't she? So, go ahead.
You want to take her for a spin? No, no.
No.
So, you got the stuff I asked for? This is all the Fentanyl - evidence had.
Here.
- It better be good.
It is.
Barker, I gotta say this.
Last time you were Apache, it took a long time to get Barker back.
Conrad, stop with the mother-hen routine.
Apache's just another cover.
Oh, uh, one other thing.
It may be nothing.
But you should check out the Canals on Pilsen.
I heard Navarro mention it on the phone.
See ya.
- Nothing new? - Nah.
I mean, who did this partner of yours piss off so bad, anyway? His name is Owens.
What makes you think I'd know? Come on, man.
Owens is your partner.
You know everything about him.
I mean All right.
I.
A.
D.
must have been all over your ass.
Not that they know squat, right? They went after me for 10 hours just 'cause I called Owens the night before.
Why? Working on my deck.
Wanted to borrow some tools.
Have to sell my house, you know? Can't afford it anymore, you know? I do, man.
- You got family? - Yeah, wife and a daughter.
You want to give them a good life, huh? Well, see, the I.
A.
D.
's the same where I'm from.
They don't have a clue what it's like in the real world, right? A good guy like Owens, maybe he tries to feather his nest, - and they act like he's the criminal.
- Hey, don't do that, all right? You don't know Owens.
He's a good guy.
He's honest.
He's proud of the badge.
He's the best thing around, okay? He's better than you, better than me.
Delaney.
Anonymous tip led us to the canals off Pilsen.
Oh, no.
- Find a body? - Not exactly.
The rest of Owens? Torso's in a bag about 100 feet down.
All we found so far.
Give me my keys.
Give me my goddamn keys! Hey, where are you going, man? - Are you receiving audio? - Of course we are.
Get out of the car now.
Come on! Get out! - You're killing me, man.
- The same, right? As requested.
It's good stuff, so they tell me.
- So, what are we playing, boys? - Draw poker.
Man's game.
Looks good, Apache.
Yeah, well, that doesn't.
Looks like I got some business to do now.
- Pull up a chair.
- Are you frontin' me? No, and you know my interest rates.
Then I ain't playing.
So I'm riding with you? Yeah, you need to see the new players out there.
Let's do it.
- That's got to hurt.
- Yeah, and it doesn't work.
- Smellin' good.
- Yeah.
Hit that, brother.
Hey, wait.
Nice bracelet.
That's stylin', man.
Yeah, it's pretty cool, isn't it? It's yours.
- What? - Yeah, take it.
Take it, man.
Thanks, brother.
Yeah.
Check this out.
See that guy? I heard they found his head over by the expressway.
Wonder if he's still got that shit-eating grin on his face.
- Mosca, what's up? - Who's this? He's cool.
He's with me.
And? Later.
Later on.
You know what we need? - Delaney - You were supposed to talk to Owens.
Talk him out of it, not to give him up to Navarro.
- That wasn't supposed to happen.
- Owens was a problem.
Talking to him wouldn't have made a bit of difference, would have only made him more sure he was doing right crying to the FBI.
You get me? I said, you get me? Yeah, I got you, Mulaskey.
Now, I'm not trying to threaten you or anything.
No? That's sure what it sounds like.
I'm just telling you that's how it is.
That's how it'll be if you're not more careful.
You don't keep your mouth shut same thing could happen to you.
Capone, coming your way.
- So, "Apache", huh? - Yeah.
- That is quite a name.
- So is "Savannah".
- Is that where you're from? - Nope.
- No? - I grew up in New Mexico - in a place called Chimay.
- El Santuario de Chimay? The place where miracles happen.
Oh, nobody's ever known that.
- I ain't nobody, sweetie.
- Ohh! Hey, Apache, let me see your knife, yeah? Don't be cutting yourself with that baby.
Apache in the house.
Apache in the house! Apache in the house, baby.
You want to know why they call him the Apache? I'm sure it was just a rumor, but the story goes like this.
- See, someone was late with a delivery.
- No.
Almost tipped off the Feds.
When they got there late, I mean, it was a firestorm.
All right, come on, dude, let go of me.
- Dude? - Hey, Capone.
Yeah, so Apache here, he takes this knife.
And he came up real close to the ass bag's skull.
Right where the skin meets the hair.
And he said: "use your head".
And he took the knife - and began to peel the hair off his head.
- Please don't.
Are you gonna scalp me now? Maybe.
- You're all right, Apache.
- You're not so bad yourself, Capone.
Come here.
- Come on, Stella.
- Elena.
Whatever.
- It's okay.
Don't worry.
- Okay, let's just do this.
Good morning.
No, no, no, no, no.
No coffee.
You know.
A grape fruit juice, please.
So what do you have to tell me so damn early? No.
Capone is a D.
E.
A.
agent? Fred Lopez, from Bloomington, Minnesota.
Almost your age.
Started at Quantico pluck early for undercover.
Went into Navarro's crew a few months after you were "arrested".
And he's been under four years? Wife divorced him last year, missed his dad's funeral.
Sounds about right for the gig.
You, uh you ever think about life after the job, uh? No.
You know, I knew this was a bad idea.
- You as Apache - Look, I'm fine! I'm sure you are.
What is the other option, Conrad? - We make contact with Fred Lopez - No! - Let him close this.
- No! - All right, all right.
- Ellis can't do this alone.
Thanks, darling.
So Ellis is working on getting a confession out of Delaney about who in the Navarro crew killed Owens.
Owens? Owens was tortured.
for hours before he died, right? Burnt with cigarettes, a blow torch They found bits of metal filings under his nails.
Must have put up quite a fight, uh? Must have.
Where's your motorcycle? - Just buy one already.
- I don't want one.
Do not call Fred Lopez's handler.
There's something about this guy You leave it be.
Leave it be.
I'm not trying to threaten you or anything.
No? That's sure what it sounds like.
That's how it is.
That's how it'll be Now, that's Sargeant Mulaskey.
Patrols Navarro's territory.
It's not Delaney, it's Mulaskey - who's got in with Navarro.
- Well done.
So, uh, is that all you got for me? You're all right? - I'm fine.
- You look like hell.
You don't keep your mouth shut - same thing could happen to you.
- Wait, wait.
Some bad idea.
If someone takes a shot at Delaney - "Someone" meaning us.
- Yeah.
Then Mulaskey's gonna think that the Navarro crew don't him anymore.
Okay.
And Delaney? Shake the cage, something's gonna fall loose.
So, uh where would your new partner be, Officer Ellis? Parked at the corner of his local bar.
Which bar? Hey, you know who keeps calling me? Who? Tracy.
- The chick from the dinner? - Yeah.
The one that Owens liked.
Said Owens finally asked her out.
She keeps calling me crying, you know.
Last time she called I hang up on her.
I thought we were going for a drink.
We will.
Gotta fix a leak first.
What are we? Roofers? What are you talking about? There's the leak? I felt so bad, you know, but I couldn't hear it.
Couldn't listen to her crying any more.
Hey, it's not your fault.
I didn't have to hang up on her, though.
Like my dad used to say "You lay down with dogs" We must have had the same old man.
¿Been laying with dogs, Delaney? Put on a sight.
- What do you know about them? - The guy standing is CPD.
Turned into a nervous nelly over the dead cop.
So he knows too much.
Who sent you? Mulaskey.
¿Mulaskey? - You're too much, Apache.
- Come over here.
You know that oath that we take when we graduate from the academy? You know the one - We promise to uphold the law.
- To the best of our ability.
Yeah.
Don't say nothing about honor.
See, that's up to us man.
What lines we cross.
So I will take down the friend first.
Ready? And Hey, man.
This way, this way! This way, this way.
Damn it! Let's get out of here.
Man, oh, man.
I'll call for backup.
No, don't.
- What? - They're after me.
Who's after you, man? What's going on, man? - It's - I nearly just took a bullet for you.
- What's going on? - What's going on is I screwed up.
It started small, you know? We made this bust.
We found a bunch of cash stuffed in the back of this sofa.
Mulaskey tells me, "go on, take it".
And so I do.
But Owens, he's busy.
He's taking these kids over to family service, right? So what, what? Owens didn't know you're on the take? Owens was such a good guy.
He never got it.
But every time we back up Mulaskey, we're making a bust for Navarro.
Navarro kept Mulaskey and me on his payroll.
I got a wife, I got a kid, I have this damn house I can't afford.
I was just trying to get by.
And Owens keeps talking to me about his money problems, how he hates living with his brother.
One night I tell him everything.
Even tell him I got some money saved for him, right? But instead of wanting in, he wants to go to I.
A.
D.
No.
No, man.
He wanted to go to the FBI.
How do you know that? Ellis Dove.
FBI.
You wanna tell me who you really are? You're not gonna shoot me.
Are you sure about that? Yeah.
It ain't something a good DEA agent would do.
What it's been? About four years now you've been under, right? How would you know that? Charles Barker, FBI.
How are you doing? So that's how things work around here, uh? Look, we knew Owens called the Bureau just before he died but we didn't know what he was gonna say.
Mulaskey was supposed to go down to the dinner and try and talk him out of it.
Now Mulaskey is trying to kill you, man.
He almost did.
So, what happens to me? What do I do? Plead out.
Testify.
Relocate.
But you'll still be with your family.
What are your choices, man? Man, I'm glad you're here.
I knew that cop dying would be like taking a stick to a hornets' nest.
Yeah.
And to Navarro's crew chopping up a kid cop is no big thing.
- Mulaskey - Here you go.
Thanks.
It was Mulaskey that called Navarro about Owens.
Navarro sent Vicente to do the job.
The way I hear it, Vicente was just supposed to shoot the kid.
Instead, he gets the brilliant idea to kidnap him and torture him to find out what he knew.
I didn't know about any of it till after.
That's what I figured, because if I mean, if you knew, you would have given us the heads up.
Right.
That kid, Owens, how old was he? God, the way this people think.
Killing Delaney is just the cost of doing business.
And Owens just the tip of the iceberg.
Navarro's a franchise, man.
He's invested in cops like Delaney and Mulaskey.
Twelve detectives, two judges, a prosecutor, half IAD, he's even got a 911 operator.
That's why I stayed under.
The case just kept snowballing.
Now it's ending.
He's my partner.
Didn't I just try to kill you? Yeah, Nice to meet you, too.
Capone.
DEA.
Tells they're a little trigger happy, no? - Sorry about that.
- Yes.
I'm thinking it's about time for a little chat, boys.
And Delaney is willing to go on record about the CPD taking cake bags from Navarro.
Conrad's with him now.
Your operation how does it go from here? All right.
All right, I'll tell you.
It goes down like this When Delaney doesn't show, Mulaskey will move to 'cover my ass' mode.
And he'll order a raid on Navarro.
Yeah, and four years of my work will go straight down the tubes in the twenty or so minutes the raid takes.
My plan was to take everyone down about 8 days from now, at the docks.
A new shipment's coming in and Mulaskey will be there.
But now Now what? Now we take Mulaskey to the station.
The judge, the prosecutor, everyone.
We take everyone down and we do it all on public.
Sends a better message that way.
You're right.
I'll handle it.
What do you mean you'll handle it? I gotta look good here, remember? Guys, professional courtesy.
Four years! This is my life.
All right.
Done.
Thanks, man.
Freeze! Police! Down on the ground! You're never ready even when you see the end coming.
May sound weird, but I'm gonna miss these guys.
Not weird at all.
You get inside their lives, they get inside yours.
Sick part is you got four years invested in bring these guys down when all Vicente needs is a good lawyer.
And he skates.
We gotta have some insurance, some kind of hard evidence to make sure Owens murder sticks to Vicente and to Navarro for ordering the hit.
We make the case against Vicente, he'll give up Navarro.
We still gotta make a case.
Come on, these guys they're your guys, there's gotta be something.
I don't know, what the forensics come up with? Next to nothing.
Metal filings underneath Owen's nails.
Navarro's outfit runs a chop shop.
Worth a look.
Let's do it.
So Owens was tortured.
One would think they wouldn't do it out in the open.
I don't know about this place, man.
This is Vicente's thing.
Oh, man, that smell! Jesus! Well, hello.
Looks like a little spontaneous dental work.
Bingo! Let's hope that's the brand Vicente smokes.
Yeah, I think so.
Well, I'll get a forensic team in here.
Mulaskey.
What am I, the only agent without a new ride? - Mulaskey? - Yeah.
Did the raid go down on Navarro? Yeah.
Owen took care of that.
And the rest of them? Detectives, judges, prosecutors.
Didn't happen.
What was the plan exactly? Well, that to happen.
Where's Barker? With Capone.
C.
S.
U.
is having a fill day with that chop shop.
Heard a lot of problems got solved there.
So I hear.
To Capone.
To Capone.
May he rest in peace.
So, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna stay in Illinois? I haven't though that part ahead.
It will be weird to be Fred Lopez again.
It will be nice to see my daughter, though.
If my ex will let me.
So that in that chop shop, you had you had you said you'd never been in that back room before, right? No, never.
Right, I forgot.
You told me that, I'm stupid.
Why are you asking? How did you know where the matchbook was? I asked you a question.
I wish I could give you answer.
You killed Owens.
I should just shot him at the dinner, that was my mistake.
Yeah, that was your mistake.
I had to find out how much he knew, how much he'd already told the FBI.
So you grabbed him, you burnt him and pulled his teeth out with pliers.
I was trying to roll out this investigation! I couldn't let some rookie cop screw everything up! I had two weeks to go! Two weeks? Bullshit.
Yesterday it was eight days.
Tomorrow it will be a month.
You were never gonna roll this thing up because you have become Capone.
No, man.
You know how you introduced yourself to Ellis? Capone, you said, not Lopez.
You didn't even realize.
You killed Owens so you could keep on being Capone.
You were willing to kill Delaney, you were willing to kill Ellis.
I was with the Apache, I was playing the part.
An agent knows how to miss.
I am an agent! A good one.
Maybe Fred Lopez was.
But you are not.
You tell me how I'm supposed to go from all this to stand in a barbecue saying "hey, neighbor it's time to prune your trees".
I don't know how.
You tell me, man.
Go ahead.
I got nothing to lose either.
I killed Mulaskey this morning.
It was so easy.
One shot.
And what's one more, right? Right.
I want you to take your gun.
No.
Take out your gun! You want me to kill you? Yes.
One shot.
And let you off the hook? Please.
I can't do it, man.
You can live through this if you just get to tomorrow.
How? You tell me how.
See? There is no answer.
Take out your gun! Thank you.
Could have killed you.
What happened? I thought he was one of us.
Don't worry.
It will go down as justified.
No joke, he was about to shoot you.
No, he wasn't going to shoot me.
What did you say? You did him a favor.
He wanted to die.
Right before you walked in, he asked me to kill him.
You could have stopped me and you didn't? - Why did you let me take the shot? - Because it needed to be done.
Why didn't you do it yourself then? Just call it in.
Yeah, is Savannah available? No? No, no, no, no.
That's ok.
Nobody else.
Thank you.
