Yeah.
Hey.

You okay? You know who Cathal Finney is? Yes, it's Brendan's father.
Yeah, um Sully thinks he killed my dad.
What? Yeah.
He said the night my dad was shot, he was supposed to go down to IAB the next day, make a statement.
About what? It's a long story.
It's dirty cops, and he knew where they all knew they were going down, so I guess Cathal had my dad set up.
And how could he do that? He's head of IAB.
He wasn't back then.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I'm going to I'm going to look into it.
Ty Irish boys were running things back then.
Maybe they put up a blue wall.
Sully couldn't get over it.
What makes you think you can? What makes you think I can't? You're back.
Surprised by that? Just making an observation.
Did you tell IAB about the knife? What knife? The knife from the shooting at Mercy.
IAB arrested me because someone told them I took the knife.

Her husband didn't come home last night.
What's she want us to do? Take a flier with his photo.
He was last seen in a gold Mercedes.
The plate number's on the sheet.
Here you go.
Probably fell asleep at his girlfriend's house.
Help! Stop! Help! Help! Stop! No! Help! Help me! Somebody help! Hey, I tried to watch that DVD you gave me.
Shrek.
It's hilarious, isn't it? Yeah, it was, until my player broke down.
What, is it skipping? No, the drawer is jammed.
I can't get it open.
Why didn't you call someone? And spend more money on a service repair? Well, I can't do it, okay? I'm-I'm committed now, and Holly wouldn't dig it if I just rolled by your place.
Carlos, that's not what I'm asking.
Girls always want the honey when other bees start buzzing around it.
Look, if it doesn't work out, I'll break you off some.
Carlos, watch out! Sir? Sir? - Get the hell away from me! - Son of a Sir, you need to calm down.

I thought I told you to lay off of this.
I thought he got life.
Yeah, well, you were seven years old.
a lot like life back then.
This doesn't make any sense.
How how could this happen? I thought we agreed we weren't going to talk about this anymore.
No, Sully, you need to tell me what you know now.
Ty Fine, fine, I'll talk to Sharon.
She can pull the court record.
What was that about? - So, you blacked out? - Yes, I blacked out.
Do you remember what happened before you did? I was getting into the car.
Then this guy came up with a gun.

Where was that? I want to send someone over to look at the tape.
Uh, over on Near where he picked you up? Yes.
I had a meeting at Locke-Johnson High.
Do you remember anything specific about this guy? Not really.
Tall, short, clean shaven? He was white.
The rest is a is a blur.
Did you fight with him? Maybe leave some marks on him? That's okay.
You're the fourth person that this has happened to in the last month.
Wait a minute.
This this has happened to other people? Yeah, we've had a string of carjackings in that neighborhood.
Sir, we need you to put on this gown so we can examine you and do a CT.
Just, uh bandage me up, and, uh, I'll-I'll- I'll see my own doctor in the morning.
He's near my office.
I promise by the time your wife gets here, we'll be done.
- She is coming here - Yeah, I called her.
Why did you have to upset her like that? I mean, I'm-I'm-I'm perfectly fine.
Okay, please, let me just take a quick look as a precaution, then.
Oh, no.
- What's the matter? - Damn.
I knew she looked familiar.
Who is she? Your husband's girlfriend.
Faith? - What are you doing here? - I'm Caroline.
Yeah, I know who you are.
Well, I was supposed to pick up Charlie from school, but when I got there, he was gone.
What do you mean gone? Well, he was he was gonna wait by the fence.
I-I saw the rest of his friends come out, but no one knows where he is.
- Where's Fred? - Well, he's at a management conference.
I-I was supposed to pick Charlie up and take him to my house, and Fred was gonna come pick him up later.
Well, maybe he's with Emily.
No, she's at cheerleading practice.
I-I was hoping he was here.
Jelly! No.
Maybe I'm overreacting.
Jelly? What's up? Look, I need to take some lost time.
Oh, you can't just leave me hanging.
I got to.
It's about my kid.
I got to go.
Come on.
Maybe he's at the soccer field? Soccer was yesterday.
He was really freaked out.
His shirt was tattered, his pants were ripped, - he was even missing a shoe.
- Wait, wait, wait, go back.
His pants were ripped? Yeah, pretty bad.
What? Well, that explains why he didn't want to take his clothes off.
This guy, uh, probably picked up a pros.
She gets his pants down around his legs, bites his Johnson, then robs him.
No wonder he was angry.
Shouldn't you be out looking for my car? Oh, we got that covered.
Did you get robbed by a prostitute? 'Cause if you did, and she hurt you and maybe made a mark on your you can tell me.
And come clean before your wife gets here.
I don't pay for women.
- How about a girl with accessories? - Accessories? What are you saying? - A transvestite? - I'm not gay.
Well, something isn't right here.
Uh, a guy puts a gun to your head, takes you to an ATM, beats the crap out of you.
Yeah, yeah, he had a had a gun to my head.
I tried to fight him, but what could I do? Well, if this was about money, that Rolex would be on his wrist right now.
He was behind me.
He-He He forced me to the ground.
I-I tried to elbow him.
I See? I got him.
He kept on hitting me.
This is This guy has done this before, but normally, he gets the money, he's gone.

He laughed.
Can you believe that? He laughed.
Did he want something? - My, uh - You got to tell me.
What did he want, Johnathan? My credits cards, my wallet My son's picture You're not making any sense, Johnathan.
He He When-When he was doing it, all I could see was my son's picture.
Doing what? You were raped, weren't you? Sir? - I know how hard this is.
- No.
No, you don't.
We need to do a-a rape kit, an HIV test.
No.
No.
Even if we don't use the kit now, we save it for later.
It increases our chances of prosecuting.
I'm not prosecuting anybody.
Whoever did this needs to pay.
You think I'm going public with this? I'm not asking you to go public.
Just let the doctor do some tests.
Johnathan.
Daddy.
Hey, sport.
- Are you all right, sir? - Yeah.
I'm-I'm fine.
Did you bring clothes for me to change into? - Yes, sir.
- How did this happen? - Karen - Did a gang do this? It was one guy.
- Who are you? - I'm Sergeant Cruz.
Well, shouldn't you be out looking for who did this? I have people canvassing the area.
Well, they'd better find him.
When Bloomberg came into office, who do you think was standing up for you? We're doing our best, but it's very important that your husband provide us with whatever information that he can.
Sir, do you want to release a statement? New York One is already calling.
Uh, I was robbed at 124th and Riverside, but I should be back tomorrow to argue the school closings.
You are not arguing anything.
First thing in the morning, you are doing a press conference.
- No, Karen, no.
- Think of the sympathy vote.
No, I'm not talking to the damn press.
If you want to help me, get that doctor back in here so I can go home.
Sir, what credit cards were stolen? American Express.
Here.
Here's the number.
Great.
I will notify credit theft, see if it gets used, and I'm gonna need to take some photos of your injuries.

We're doing our very best.

Well, I thought it was only fair since you got Emily one.
Well, thanks for checking with me.
Em? Hey, baby.
Is he with you? Okay.
Uh, I'm gonna go back to the apartment and wait for him.
Yeah, Caroline's gonna go, uh, back to the school.

Bye.
- Any luck? - No.
Look, Faith, I'm sorry we had to meet like this.
Yeah, 'cause otherwise, it could have been a real treat.
Is this about your old man? Hey, hey.
It's none of your business.
I thought you and I were partners.
You got problems, so do I.
This ain't the Boy Scouts, Fin.
Man, how can you have more in common with Sully than you do with me? I mean, the guy's a slug who sits on his ass all day watching the world go by.
I mean, come on.
The guy won't even stand up for the Pledge of Allegiance.
You know, my dad calls guys like Sully ???? They suit up, but they never get in the game.
Sully's been in plenty of games.
Look, we don't need to spoon or nothing.
All I'm saying is that if we're in this car for eight hours a day, - I can feel the weight.
- I'm fine.
Okay? I'm fine.
Fred, don't do that to me.
I hate when you do that to me.
Don't tell me to calm down! You stand up in court, you call me call me an irresponsible parent.
What do you call this? You give a stranger our child.
No, Fred, I don't know her, and our kids don't know her.
And she lost my son.
Hey.
Charlie.
Fred, he's here.
I'm gonna call you back.
Charlie, where have you been? I just wanted to see you, and I This is not how you do that.
- I know, but - Charlie, how many times have I told you that you should never leave school when somebody is picking you up? I know, Mom.
I'm sorry.
You're sorry? What is wrong with you.
- Look, just calm down.
- Don't talk to me.
We were looking all over the city for you.
We thought somebody kidnapped you.
I was just coming to see you.
Don't you ever do this again.
Do you hear me? Don't you ever do this again.
Oh, Charlie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Are they using the credit cards right now? Yeah.
Thanks.
What's going on? I found our rapist.
What is taking it so long? Some times the computers go down.
Just give it a sec.
You dented my car, moron.
- Stay down! - Put the gun away.
Get up.
- Just trying to help.
- We don't need your help.
Spread your legs.
Put your hands behind your back.
You're welcome.
- No press, nothing.
- No, I promise, no press.
No one can hurt you now.
Number one, step forward.
Number two, step forward.
Three Is that him? Is that the one that did this to you? Just tell me the number.
Uh n-number three.
Good.
That wasn't so hard, huh? It looks like him but that's not him.
What? Hm-mm.
No, he's not there at all.
- Look, I know you're scared - I'm done! You just said Don t do this collected from my car.
At least, let's get him on the robbery.
You're just going to let him go out there and do the same thing to someone else? Any luck? You did your best.
Thank you, Lieutenant.
You're suppose to be tough on crime, huh? Don't do this.
What the hell was that about? The guy's in there but Councilman Daniels won't make the ID.
- Then cut him loose.
- Let a sex offender walk? Well, if he's not gonna cooperate, you're going to have to give that guy a D.
A.
T.
because you barely have him on a misdemeanor.
Until I hear from central warrants, I'm not unlocking the cage.
Ready to come clean, rough rider? - You got nothing.
- We got the DNA from a rectum that says otherwise.
And the victim ID'd you last night.
If that was true, you'd have booked me then.
Not if I was waiting for the councilman to prepare a speech first.
Oh, you think you raped some jailhouse snitch? He's a two-term incumbent.
And when people find out what you did to him, oh, they're gonna be all up in your ass.
He asked for it.
Do you really think that the jury is going to believe that this was consensual? Do you do you smell that? That's the creek you're floating up.
This is your paddle.
Now, if I were you, I'd come clean.
Otherwise, any deal that I would've made with the D.
A.
is off the table.
I got three collars last week, two yesterday.
Swersky says I'm kicking ass.
- Good for you.
- Yeah, I'm learning a lot from Davis, too, you know.
I was expecting Denzel in Training Day, - but he's nothing like that.
- Nah, that was his dad.
What happened with you and his old man? We worked together.
That's all.
Well, do you know anything about how he was killed? Why are you asking? Well, Davis has been looking into it, and I keep telling him to come and talk to you, but he won't.
- Been looking into it, huh? - Yeah, he had a yellow sheet on his dad's death.
Yeah, what's going on? Just wanted to give you a heads up, man.
About what? There's some officer here to see Raymond Morris.
Oh, yeah? What's his name? Ty Davis.
You don't say.
Everything all right? What about this Davis kid? He just, uh, thinks something stinks with his father's death.
You know what the problem is with these people? They don't believe the truth.
O.
J.
was framed; Michael Jackson just likes kids.
His damn father was killed in the line of duty.
That's all.
Well, hey, if it's okay, can I have him come and talk to you? If he wants to, I'll be here.
Listen, on Sunday, your mom's having a little dinner after Jenny's gymnastics thing.
I expect you to come.
Wouldn't miss it.
Hello? I stopped by your office.
They said you were sick.
I've wanted to open this room up for years.
Isn't that a, uh, bearing wall? Are you sure you know what you're doing here? Uh-huh.
Now we're talking.
I wanted you to know that the guy confessed.
To the robbery? All of it.
All you got to do is sign a complaint.
I did the hard work.
This is going to be a nice room.
Real big.
Are you listening to me, Johnathan? There'll be a lot more space.
Always use some more space.
Hey the wall can wait.
I can't sign a complaint.
I know you're scared, okay, but I promise you all you have to do is talk to the D.
A.
, and we'll seal the file.
She and I are going to be the only ones who know your identity.
You can't promise that.
Don't promise that.
She probably won't even make you testify.
"Probably"? I can have the D.
A.
come down here to you if that's going to be easier.
They'd kill me with this.
I I'm tough on crime? I can't even protect myself.
This man admitted that he raped you and he needs to be punished.
I got to finish this before my wife comes back.
Councilman Councilman! Who are you? I don't look familiar? Can't say that you do.
You killed my dad.
But, you know, you shot him in the back of the head.
I guess you wouldn't notice the resemblance.
- Look, I was a kid - You can save your sob story.
I just want to know how somebody with your credentials spends less time in here than my dad spent on the street.
- I ain't gonna talk about this.
- Yes, you are.
You owe me.
You owe my mother, my sisters.
Look, man, you can't be rolling up here now.
You're the one that was screamed conspiracy, right? Right? I just want to know who set you up.
Was it, uh, Scott Murray? Tyler O'Reilly? Marc Vicetti? How about Cathal Finney? That name ring a bell? He's the guy that booked you on felony drug possession then had it dropped only to have you arrested two days later for killing my dad? - Playa - What did he do? What, he drop a gun on you, get a false confession? I don't get it, man.
for somebody to listen to you.
Why are you flipping the script now? What's he got on you? Is he sending your mom checks? Kicking you back cigarette money? What? Oh yeah.
Funny.
Oh, I'm glad that you can find the humor in all this.
Maybe I should just go down to the parole board, beg them not to let you out of here.
- Come on, man.
- Decorated officer in his nice dress blues.
I bet I could be quite persuasive.
That ain't right, yo.
What the hell do you know about what's right? Look, they made me do it.
Okay, is that what you want to hear? They made me do it.
C.
T.
was big.
He ran drugs in all the projects, but he'd let you make your money as long as you kicked him back.
Now, every now and then, to make himself look legit, he'd run our asses in.
One of our boys paid his price, he'd get the charges kicked.
So what's that got to do with my dad? Yo, one time my number came up.
But instead of money, C.
T.
said he wanted a favor.
So there's a brother trying to rat me out.
Now, all you got to do is go to this apartment and wait.
I'll have your back.
He said if I took him out, he'd give me half the projects.
The window faced the spot in the park where he said your pops would be.
The bastard even gave me the gun.
The only thing he didn't tell me was that the dude I shot was a cop.
I ain't stupid enough to kill no cop.
The ballistics match.
Uh-oh, not good, Ray.
Come on, Finney.
You know I didn't know he was a cop.
What did you say? You told people this story? I bitched to everybody-- my attorneys, the judge.
Even your dad's partner.
Who, Sullivan? Sent him letters for years.
- What? - I gave him, dates, times, places.
Thinking he'd be the only one to care about this mess.
Do you think I ever heard from him? Nope.
You're talking about John Sullivan? So the best thing I could've ever done was taking C.
T.
's deal.
What the hell do you want? Relax, Ray.
I said I'd have your back.
I'd take it if I were you.
You're going to testify to this.
- Yo, let's get it straight - I'm going to get a D.
A.
down here, you're going to testify to this.
They're not going to listen to you.
These white boys did to your old man.
- Look what they did to me.
- I'm coming back here, I'm bring a D.
A.
, you're going to testify to this.
In 12 months I plan on walking out of here, alive.
That won't happen if they find out I'm talking to you.
Please So you didn't say anything to IAB about the knife? No.
Why the hell would I do that? Well, you and Davis were the only ones who knew I took it.
I'm not the mole.
I know.
I'm sorry I even asked.
It's just that the whole thing is weird.
Cruz, I - Sergeant Cruz.
- This is Councilman Daniels.
Oh, uh, too late.
I cut him loose two hours ago.
- I'm sorry to hear that.
- No, you're not.
All you politicians stand for the same thing-- nothing.
Actually, I took your advice, Officer.
I'm going to get through this.
Oh, really? Well, that's just great, because I've still got a rapist walking the streets.
The D.
A.
wouldn't take my case unless I had a willing complainant.
- That's why I'm calling.
- Yeah, what happened? - You had a change of heart? - Yeah, you could say that.
As soon as you get down here and talk to the D.
A.
, I'll go nab the guy.
He's at the SRO on 152nd street and Lex.
How do you know that? I'm a councilman, Sergeant.
- I got ins everywhere.
- Johnathan, how By the time you get here, it will be handled.
Johnathan? Johnathan.
Okay, let's move it.
Around this car and left.
Next turn! Let's go! Hey! Next left.
Next left.
Let's move it! Damn! Look out! Look out! You ain't serious.
Were you serious? You don't have the balls.
Ow! ( screams ) Now neither of us do.
God! To the right! To the right! I don't deserve this! Yeah? Yeah, yeah? How about this? Do you know what you did to me? You destroyed me! Somebody help me! My God, you sick freak! Please! What? What did you say? I'm sorry.
Yeah? Well, I'm not.
Jacob! It's over.
- Put the gun down.
- No.
Johnathan don't do this.
I'm not doing anything, you are.
I'm not going to shoot you.
How can I live with this? How's your family going to live without you, huh? Stop talking! Just do it! You don't want to die.
I'm dead already.
I'm not going to ask you again.
I know what it feels like.
I know what it feels like to, to want to wash the filth off you.
Pull the trigger.
You think it was hard for you to step up? I'm a police sergeant.
Do it! I do that, they win.
We can't let them win.
That's weak, Johnathan.
That's what the weak ones do.
They make decisions, and then ten minutes later they can't live with them! You went to Yale.
You'll get this knocked down, you'll be out in no time and then you'll write a book about it.
That's what happens to people like you.
I, on the other hand, have to get up every day by myself, and talk worthless pieces of crap off ledges! Now I'm not going to ask you again.
Get up! That's how you want to play it? Then go ahead because if you think blowing your head off makes you a man, then you're right your son doesn't need you.
Hey.
Hey, you okay? Sully, don't.
Don't what? What's going on? I saw Raymond Morris today.
Turns out he had my father's back more than his own partner did.
Look, Davis, I don't know what he said to you or what you think you figured out, but your father was like a brother to me.
Why didn't you return any of Raymond's letters? Years of letters.
- You just don't get it.
- Why didn't you re-open the case? Maybe you didn't do anything because you had something to do with his death? Hey! You don't talk to me like that.
It's true, isn't it? If I had gone up against the department on this, do you think they would have let your mother keep your father's pension? Huh? How was she supposed to take care of you and your sisters? How was she supposed to pay for you to go to Columbia? - That doesn't make it right.
- This isn't about being right.
This is about what is.
I keep trying to tell you we're solving problems out here, and that's what I did.
Well, that wasn't enough, Sull.
You know what? You can think whatever you want to think.
I don't give a damn.
But don't you ever question my loyalty to your father again.
You don't have that right.
So Mr Mc Kingley, You retired in '83? Right after Davis' father died.
'Cause of how it went down? Of course.
So you believe the death wasn't on the up and up? It wasn't.
A two-year-old could have figured this out.
How? The IAB folder had two complete pages.
Wait a minute.
I saw this yesterday.
The one they wanted you to see.
So, you were part of the cover-up.
This was my get-out-of-jail-free card.
I saw what Cathal and his boys did to Ty and I knew what they'd do to me.
What is this? The apartment that Raymond Morris shot from was rented by Anti-Crime.
The gun was vouchered into the evidence room three weeks earlier.
Everyone heard Raymond's claims, but we all pretended we didn't.
Everyone you would have complained to was standing in the room.
Look, these guys knew exactly what they were doing.
They got a no-good drug dealer with an outstanding warrant to shoot a cop.
They knew he'd get sacked with a public defender straight out of SUNY who'd think they were doing something by getting their client Why didn't you say something? I notified the Chief of Internal Affairs.
But he gave me the NYPD party line: "Brian, we don't need bad press.
"We got a cop killer off the street.
End of story.
" - No, no, this is - I'm not saying it's right, but on 45K a year, it's what happens.
I got to give this to Davis.
You can have a copy.
But I got to be honest with you, Detective, you're going up against people who had no problem killing a cop.
They don't care about your family or Davis'.
They will do whatever it takes to protect their money because that's what this is about.
So don't think you're here on the sly.
They're already These guys will take out anyone who stands in their way.
