00:00:11,804 --> 00:00:15,141
I got that rasheed and beno.
Rasheed and beno.

3
00:00:15,224 --> 00:00:17,185
Put some ice on his nuts.

4
00:00:17,268 --> 00:00:20,146
Tried and true,
that shit always bring a nigger back.

5
00:00:20,229 --> 00:00:22,690
Where we gonna get ice from down here?

6
00:00:22,773 --> 00:00:25,943
- Walk him to bon secours and leave him.
- I got that rasheed and beno!

7
00:00:28,196 --> 00:00:29,655
Two for one!

8
00:00:31,574 --> 00:00:34,577
- Um, can you give me an eight ball?
- Eight ball?

9
00:00:36,787 --> 00:00:38,206
So, how you doing today?

10
00:00:38,289 --> 00:00:40,666
No offense, but can you
just get the eight ball?

11
00:00:41,667 --> 00:00:44,795
- All right, all right. Just being social.
- Got it right here, yo!

12
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,383
Thank you.

13
00:00:49,926 --> 00:00:52,053
You hear mack man jewelers
got took off last night?

14
00:00:53,846 --> 00:00:56,224
Got all this shit in the row house.
Down yonder.

15
00:00:56,349 --> 00:00:59,310
Like a must-move
situation. 15 on the dollar.

16
00:00:59,602 --> 00:01:03,439
Y'all want some slamming ice,
go inside and tell my man rafik sent you.

17
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,693
Lighters, pipes, matches.
Pipes, lighters.

18
00:01:07,860 --> 00:01:10,154
You need 'em, I got 'em. Right here, pipes.

19
00:01:10,947 --> 00:01:13,324
Reddies. Two for one.

20
00:01:16,327 --> 00:01:18,329
Ask me if it's loaded, bitch!

21
00:01:21,666 --> 00:01:23,751
Reddies, son, two for one.

22
00:01:28,047 --> 00:01:30,967
- Anything up?
- Just a good package.

23
00:01:31,050 --> 00:01:34,679
Three od's. Last one didn't look too good
before the ambo came.

24
00:01:37,014 --> 00:01:38,015
Fuck.

25
00:01:44,855 --> 00:01:45,982
Shit.

26
00:01:46,649 --> 00:01:48,192
Hey, this guy's a cop.

27
00:01:50,569 --> 00:01:51,779
There's more inside, carv.

28
00:01:52,989 --> 00:01:56,867
Goddamn! Can't you ever get a fucking
police around here when you need one?

29
00:02:09,130 --> 00:02:11,424
When you walk through the garden

30
00:02:12,675 --> 00:02:15,052
you gotta watch your back

31
00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:19,098
well, I beg your pardon

32
00:02:20,266 --> 00:02:22,476
walk the straight and narrow track

33
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:23,936
walk the straight
and narrow track

34
00:02:24,353 --> 00:02:27,064
if you walk with Jesus

35
00:02:27,857 --> 00:02:30,067
he's gonna save your soul

36
00:02:31,485 --> 00:02:34,113
you gotta keep the devil

37
00:02:35,406 --> 00:02:37,908
way down in the hole

38
00:02:39,285 --> 00:02:41,787
he got fire and the fury

39
00:02:41,871 --> 00:02:43,331
fire and fury

40
00:02:43,622 --> 00:02:46,167
at his command

41
00:02:46,751 --> 00:02:49,879
well, you don't have to worry

42
00:02:50,421 --> 00:02:53,674
hold on to Jesus' hands

43
00:02:54,467 --> 00:02:57,470
oh, we'll be safe from Satan

44
00:02:57,803 --> 00:03:00,139
when the thunder rolls

45
00:03:01,849 --> 00:03:05,102
you gotta keep the devil

46
00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:08,481
way down in the hole

47
00:03:17,156 --> 00:03:19,867
You gotta keep the devil

48
00:03:20,826 --> 00:03:23,079
way down in the hole

49
00:03:27,458 --> 00:03:28,542
way down

50
00:03:28,667 --> 00:03:31,295
way down in the hole

51
00:03:38,135 --> 00:03:39,637
Okay, on that burner?

52
00:03:40,137 --> 00:03:42,390
I called trac, gave them the serial number.

53
00:03:42,473 --> 00:03:46,519
Trac told me that they sent it to
northland, a purchasing corporation.

54
00:03:46,602 --> 00:03:49,939
Northland tells me they sent it
to their distribution center in hagerstown.

55
00:03:50,564 --> 00:03:53,776
Hagerstown tells me
they sent it to buddy's mondo mart

56
00:03:53,984 --> 00:03:58,406
at 1440 propane road,
falls church, Virginia.

57
00:03:58,531 --> 00:04:00,171
That's where it went out into the street.

58
00:04:01,075 --> 00:04:02,410
What?

59
00:04:02,493 --> 00:04:05,533
Did buddy have them on display to
the left or the right of the cash register?

60
00:04:07,415 --> 00:04:08,666
How would I know that?

61
00:04:13,045 --> 00:04:14,255
All right.

62
00:04:14,338 --> 00:04:16,882
As for the numbers in
the phone's speed dial,

63
00:04:17,299 --> 00:04:18,884
we got one local number.

64
00:04:19,051 --> 00:04:22,513
One that tracks to bodie's grandmother's
house on west Baltimore street,

65
00:04:22,763 --> 00:04:27,435
and six other numbers that are all assigned
to trac disposable cellphones.

66
00:04:27,518 --> 00:04:30,521
And those phones
were all purchased outside the city.

67
00:04:30,604 --> 00:04:35,067
One each in catonsville, Laurel, Bethesda,

68
00:04:35,151 --> 00:04:36,777
and stores in Virginia,

69
00:04:36,861 --> 00:04:40,948
at Springfield, dumfries and lakeside.

70
00:04:41,157 --> 00:04:45,995
Everything's along i-95,
from here to almost Richmond.

71
00:04:46,704 --> 00:04:50,791
They're driving 200 miles
every couple of weeks out of sheer caution.

72
00:04:50,916 --> 00:04:52,543
It's beautiful.

73
00:04:53,043 --> 00:04:55,588
- Yeah.
- What is?

74
00:04:55,713 --> 00:04:59,383
Mm-hm. The discipline of it.

75
00:05:02,344 --> 00:05:07,057
Did you think you would ever again
see mount and fayette like this?

76
00:05:07,475 --> 00:05:09,435
Those ain't touts you're hearing, brother.

77
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,729
- Those are birds chirping.
- How?

78
00:05:13,564 --> 00:05:15,191
I'll show you.

79
00:05:15,441 --> 00:05:19,361
No whistles, no muscle, no flexing.
You supposed to be all over that shit.

80
00:05:19,445 --> 00:05:21,906
You said it's supposed to be
like the valley of Eden.

81
00:05:22,031 --> 00:05:24,241
To serve and protect, motherfuckers.

82
00:05:24,366 --> 00:05:26,911
- Poetic injustice.
- I wanna file a report.

83
00:05:26,994 --> 00:05:28,454
- Say what?
- You heard me.

84
00:05:28,621 --> 00:05:32,416
You want to complain that you were selling
drugs and someone took your money?

85
00:05:32,541 --> 00:05:34,293
Fuck, yes.

86
00:05:41,425 --> 00:05:43,511
- Here.
- Fredericksburg?

87
00:05:43,594 --> 00:05:45,846
Going all that way to buy cellphones?

88
00:05:45,930 --> 00:05:48,098
One here, two there.
No wholesale purchases.

89
00:05:48,182 --> 00:05:51,018
They've been dumping phones
every two weeks or so

90
00:05:51,101 --> 00:05:54,188
and still they're worried
about catching a wiretap.

91
00:05:54,271 --> 00:05:58,192
Just 'cause you're paranoid doesn't mean
someone's not out to get you, right?

92
00:05:58,275 --> 00:06:01,237
It'd be nice to know who's buying
all those cellphones.

93
00:06:05,950 --> 00:06:07,076
|'|| drive.

94
00:06:30,015 --> 00:06:32,643
Yo, yo, yo, yo - you up, old man?

95
00:06:32,726 --> 00:06:34,895
They do have a point though, right?

96
00:06:34,979 --> 00:06:39,024
We tell them to come here without the guns,
and then we don't provide protection.

97
00:06:39,108 --> 00:06:43,862
It's like the stickup crews have these
hoppers feeling like they live in a lamb pen.

98
00:06:43,946 --> 00:06:48,075
They see one more gun,
Gandhi-world falls apart, this I guarantee.

99
00:06:48,158 --> 00:06:52,413
- So what are you doing about it?
- I sent a few of the vics over with herc.

100
00:06:52,496 --> 00:06:55,791
Let them play with an ident-a-kit,
but you know how that goes.

101
00:06:55,874 --> 00:06:59,753
Can I be honest? It's not just
the wolves circling the corral.

102
00:06:59,837 --> 00:07:04,508
We got 50, 60 kids on the inside been fight
or flight since they popped out the chute

103
00:07:04,592 --> 00:07:06,510
and right now they're just hanging.

104
00:07:06,594 --> 00:07:09,597
All these ex-runners, ex-lookouts.

105
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,142
That shit worries me
as much as any carnivores out there.

106
00:07:14,184 --> 00:07:18,772
If you want to neutralize a threat,
give it a job.

107
00:07:18,856 --> 00:07:21,942
- As?
- Auxiliary cops.

108
00:07:22,484 --> 00:07:24,278
Keep an eye out for the predators.

109
00:07:24,361 --> 00:07:27,573
You got the dealers paying them
to do nothing no-how anyway.

110
00:07:27,698 --> 00:07:30,743
- Kill two birds and all that.
- Right.

111
00:07:30,826 --> 00:07:33,037
Throw them some bikes, maybe police radios.

112
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,541
- We could do that.
- I was being... you're serious?

113
00:07:37,666 --> 00:07:40,044
What in god's name did you do here?

114
00:07:48,177 --> 00:07:49,720
Hey, how you doing?

115
00:07:49,803 --> 00:07:52,556
We're looking for a guy who came in
10, 11 days ago,

116
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,808
dropped cash
on a couple of disposable phones.

117
00:07:54,892 --> 00:07:56,894
- Ten, 11 days ago?
- Yeah.

118
00:07:56,977 --> 00:08:00,606
- Black, most likely.
- That really narrows it down.

119
00:08:00,731 --> 00:08:03,192
How about we just check
some of your security tapes?

120
00:08:03,275 --> 00:08:05,110
From ten days ago?

121
00:08:05,235 --> 00:08:08,864
Unless there's an incident,
we reuse those videotapes every week.

122
00:08:08,947 --> 00:08:12,117
- Every week?
- It's mondo mart policy.

123
00:08:12,242 --> 00:08:13,619
That went well.

124
00:08:15,412 --> 00:08:17,581
- Yeah?
- Brianna barksdale called.

125
00:08:17,665 --> 00:08:20,751
- Who?
- D'Angelo barksdale's mother.

126
00:08:21,251 --> 00:08:23,921
- You get her number?
- You got a pen?

127
00:08:25,172 --> 00:08:28,842
410-718-9433.

128
00:08:28,926 --> 00:08:30,886
- You got it?
- All right.

129
00:08:30,969 --> 00:08:32,638
- You gonna call her?
- I don't know.

130
00:08:32,721 --> 00:08:34,765
- It's all yours.
- Thanks, Jay.

131
00:08:35,099 --> 00:08:40,145
Check it out. Mondo mart, mondo mart,
mondo mart, mondo mart. We're fucked.

132
00:08:40,437 --> 00:08:45,025
Until we get here.
Baba jani food mart, dumfries, Virginia.

133
00:08:45,109 --> 00:08:49,363
A hundred miles on the off chance
this guy has a memory or a camera?

134
00:08:49,446 --> 00:08:53,450
Do you really wanna go home early
and disappoint Lester freamon?

135
00:08:54,493 --> 00:08:55,994
Who was that who rang?

136
00:08:56,078 --> 00:08:59,456
Guess who's calling homicide
looking for me on d'Angelo barksdale?

137
00:08:59,623 --> 00:09:01,291
- His mama.
- Yeah?

138
00:09:01,583 --> 00:09:03,752
Shit, I forgot I even
tried to press that thing.

139
00:09:03,836 --> 00:09:07,756
Now she's calling up asking questions.
Waste of her time as it was mine.

140
00:09:09,925 --> 00:09:12,052
Kind of like this road trip.

141
00:09:18,392 --> 00:09:20,310
He do look natural.

142
00:09:23,814 --> 00:09:25,816
That motherfucker marlo.

143
00:09:26,775 --> 00:09:29,570
We gonna have to get deep on this nigger.

144
00:09:32,781 --> 00:09:37,619
I mean, it feels like ain't shit changed
except for a growing lightness in my wallet.

145
00:09:37,703 --> 00:09:40,873
Where's my letter
from the preservation motherfuckers?

146
00:09:41,039 --> 00:09:44,001
- My right-of-way agreement? My sign-offs?
- Hold on.

147
00:09:44,168 --> 00:09:46,170
Everything's right around the corner.

148
00:09:46,295 --> 00:09:49,757
We got both the plumbing and
the electrical inspectors on for tomorrow,

149
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,010
Tuesday, the fire department's coming
and that should do it.

150
00:09:53,093 --> 00:09:54,678
You'll be on your way.

151
00:09:55,637 --> 00:09:58,849
And by the way, congratulations.

152
00:10:00,017 --> 00:10:02,144
You are now a minority contractor

153
00:10:02,227 --> 00:10:04,855
for light bulb supply
to the board of education,

154
00:10:04,938 --> 00:10:07,858
city of Baltimore.

155
00:10:07,941 --> 00:10:09,985
What the fuck I know about light bulbs?

156
00:10:10,068 --> 00:10:13,530
Do you know how to put the words
on a b&b letterhead?

157
00:10:13,614 --> 00:10:17,075
Come on, man, relax,
white guy's doing all the work.

158
00:10:17,326 --> 00:10:19,953
You're just his beard
for the empowerment Grant.

159
00:10:20,037 --> 00:10:24,082
That's an extra five gs a month
for just laying in the cut.

160
00:10:24,166 --> 00:10:25,459
See how it work?

161
00:10:25,542 --> 00:10:29,963
I'm gonna bring you along, string,
but it ain't gonna be an overnight thing.

162
00:10:30,714 --> 00:10:33,342
We spend this year dealing with the city,

163
00:10:33,550 --> 00:10:36,178
the next doing business with the state.

164
00:10:36,553 --> 00:10:39,598
However, year three...

165
00:10:39,681 --> 00:10:43,852
Then we go for the
gold, then we go federal.

166
00:10:44,061 --> 00:10:47,648
Then we see the man
with his hand on the faucet.

167
00:10:47,731 --> 00:10:52,486
- What faucet?
- The hud faucet, the money faucet.

168
00:10:52,569 --> 00:10:55,781
Look, I don't know why we got to wait
three years for that shit.

169
00:10:55,864 --> 00:10:59,076
- I'm ready to run now.
- No. You're not.

170
00:11:00,202 --> 00:11:05,249
I mean, forgive me but you still showing a
little bit of that street corner mentality.

171
00:11:05,332 --> 00:11:07,584
Bugging about every dime you spend,

172
00:11:07,668 --> 00:11:11,129
about the permits, about setting up a pac,

173
00:11:11,213 --> 00:11:14,883
about dropping cash
into re-election war chests,

174
00:11:15,551 --> 00:11:18,303
which, by the way, is how I get my gravy.

175
00:11:18,887 --> 00:11:21,014
Look, it takes money to make money,

176
00:11:21,348 --> 00:11:23,809
othennise, hell, every pauper'd be a king.

177
00:11:23,892 --> 00:11:27,604
And I'm saying I'm ready to run now.

178
00:11:27,688 --> 00:11:28,772
Three years.

179
00:11:29,147 --> 00:11:34,528
Crawl, walk, and then run.

180
00:11:34,862 --> 00:11:37,698
- No, man, nappy up there a little bit more.
- Yeah, yeah.

181
00:11:38,115 --> 00:11:41,243
And the eyes - he had little beany eyes.

182
00:11:42,119 --> 00:11:44,580
What the fuck is beany eyes?

183
00:11:44,663 --> 00:11:49,626
- You know, little rat eyes.
- Yeah, all right. Put a mole on there.

184
00:11:50,085 --> 00:11:52,379
- He didn't have a mole.
- He did, too.

185
00:11:52,462 --> 00:11:55,424
You was too busy shitting yourself
with that whistle to your dome

186
00:11:55,507 --> 00:11:58,427
- to see the motherfucker.
- Shit, the fuck I did.

187
00:11:59,553 --> 00:12:03,640
- How do you know how to do this?
- Man, how you don't know how to do this?

188
00:12:04,182 --> 00:12:05,225
Make his ears stick out.

189
00:12:05,642 --> 00:12:07,936
- Why?
- Cos I told you to.

190
00:12:09,271 --> 00:12:11,440
Shit. Okay.

191
00:12:11,732 --> 00:12:13,066
Give him light eyes.

192
00:12:13,317 --> 00:12:16,320
- Why?
- 'Cause I fucking told you to.

193
00:12:17,821 --> 00:12:20,240
Okay, can you make them crossed?

194
00:12:22,910 --> 00:12:26,413
This is fucking cool. Check out these
knuckleheads on the make-a-face.

195
00:12:28,874 --> 00:12:30,834
Bring that down.

196
00:12:34,504 --> 00:12:37,090
- I'm telling you...
- Fuck this shit.

197
00:12:37,174 --> 00:12:40,320
That is not what this is about. I'm
just trying to make my district liveable.

198
00:12:40,344 --> 00:12:43,805
I write off a few blocks in a few places,
but I save the rest.

199
00:12:44,431 --> 00:12:46,934
You're like the blind man and the elephant.

200
00:12:47,017 --> 00:12:49,937
It's bigger than what you got your hand on,
you can't see it.

201
00:12:50,020 --> 00:12:51,271
See what?

202
00:12:51,355 --> 00:12:53,398
A great village of pain
and you're the mayor.

203
00:12:55,275 --> 00:12:57,319
Where's your drinking water?

204
00:12:57,402 --> 00:13:00,781
Where's your toilets,
your heat, your electricity?

205
00:13:01,782 --> 00:13:03,533
Where's the needle truck,

206
00:13:04,076 --> 00:13:07,371
the condom distribution,
the drug treatment intake?

207
00:13:07,704 --> 00:13:08,872
Half these people are dying

208
00:13:08,956 --> 00:13:11,667
and the other half's
gonna catch what's killing them.

209
00:13:12,042 --> 00:13:14,711
Look, they ain't no worse off
than when they was all over the map.

210
00:13:15,087 --> 00:13:18,048
- Now they're just in one place, is all.
- And that place is hell.

211
00:13:28,058 --> 00:13:29,851
Look, I'm a police.

212
00:13:29,977 --> 00:13:33,230
So I can lock a man up
or I can move his ass off the corner.

213
00:13:34,773 --> 00:13:38,402
Now, you want anything more than that,
you're in the wrong shop.

214
00:13:40,153 --> 00:13:42,948
Hey, yo, make her hair
a little bit more straight.

215
00:13:43,490 --> 00:13:45,909
Make it long. With bangs.

216
00:13:46,868 --> 00:13:49,079
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

217
00:13:49,287 --> 00:13:51,915
Now Chinese up them eyes, like beyonce.

218
00:13:52,499 --> 00:13:58,922
- Get them cheekbones up a little bit.
- No, she's looking like a pie tin with hair.

219
00:13:59,339 --> 00:14:04,011
- Hang on.
- Yeah, all right. Pillow those lips a little bit.

220
00:14:04,428 --> 00:14:07,431
Yeah, hook me up with that.

221
00:14:09,766 --> 00:14:11,935
You got one of these does asses?

222
00:14:14,104 --> 00:14:17,566
- What?
- Yeah, that's what's up.

223
00:14:23,113 --> 00:14:24,698
Hey, guys.

224
00:14:25,824 --> 00:14:28,785
How you doing?
We're looking for a cash purchase in here.

225
00:14:28,910 --> 00:14:32,039
Maybe a couple of trac phones.
Week or so back. Black guy.

226
00:14:32,122 --> 00:14:35,000
Sure, that guy. Every two weeks for him.

227
00:14:35,083 --> 00:14:38,003
Last time, eight phones. Almost $900.

228
00:14:38,503 --> 00:14:41,089
That's a lot of ring dings, no?

229
00:14:41,173 --> 00:14:43,175
- Ring dings?
- A joke.

230
00:14:47,971 --> 00:14:50,515
You got some kind of transaction record?

231
00:14:55,812 --> 00:14:58,273
Seek and you shall find.

232
00:14:59,691 --> 00:15:01,985
Hang on. Hang on...

233
00:15:05,238 --> 00:15:07,574
$927.24.

234
00:15:08,408 --> 00:15:11,912
- Can we have the tape for that day?
- No tape. I rewind every day.

235
00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:18,460
- Keep this?
- Sure.

236
00:15:18,794 --> 00:15:22,798
What the fuck do we do now?
Buy this guy a box of videotape?

237
00:15:22,881 --> 00:15:27,010
Or camp out in this shithole for a week,
hoping our boy runs the same route?

238
00:15:33,225 --> 00:15:36,937
I just know I got to put my mind
on something or I'm gonna slide back.

239
00:15:37,020 --> 00:15:39,773
Need to be in control of myself,
you know what I'm saying?

240
00:15:39,856 --> 00:15:42,109
- Take command of your life.
- Something.

241
00:15:42,192 --> 00:15:45,403
- Cultivate some self-discipline.
- Or whatever.

242
00:15:45,487 --> 00:15:49,533
What if I told you
that there's a certain liberation,

243
00:15:49,825 --> 00:15:53,286
not in command or in self-control,
but in surrendering?

244
00:15:53,370 --> 00:15:55,997
Well, that depends
on who you surrendering to.

245
00:15:58,333 --> 00:16:00,460
Oh, that.

246
00:16:00,794 --> 00:16:04,214
All due respect, you can stow that patter
right here and now.

247
00:16:06,383 --> 00:16:10,220
Look, it ain't about me doing for me,
I don't think.

248
00:16:10,387 --> 00:16:12,556
Might need to be about more than that.

249
00:16:13,223 --> 00:16:16,935
So you're bringing in an overall decline
of 2% for the month

250
00:16:17,018 --> 00:16:21,982
but almost half of that's coming from
an 8% drop in the western district?

251
00:16:22,107 --> 00:16:25,527
Major Colvin is himself willing
to acknowledge the possibility

252
00:16:25,610 --> 00:16:28,905
of a statistical variation from the mean
in his monthly stats.

253
00:16:29,072 --> 00:16:31,199
Variation, huh?

254
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,911
If I look through the
western incident reports

255
00:16:34,995 --> 00:16:39,416
am I likely to find less crime or more incidents
which have been downgraded or unfounded?

256
00:16:39,541 --> 00:16:43,128
Because this kind of variation
screams manipulation to me,

257
00:16:43,253 --> 00:16:46,047
and if I'm wrong,
if indeed there is no manipulation,

258
00:16:46,214 --> 00:16:48,508
what has major Colvin learned

259
00:16:48,592 --> 00:16:51,178
about police work that eludes
the rest of your commanders?

260
00:16:51,261 --> 00:16:54,931
Councilman, I assure you, these stats
are not massaged. We don't do that.

261
00:16:55,724 --> 00:16:58,560
I don't do that.
And I won't allow my people to do that.

262
00:16:58,685 --> 00:17:01,646
Our feeling is that
it's genuinely an aberration.

263
00:17:01,813 --> 00:17:06,568
And if it repeats itself next month, then
it bears closer examination. Othen/vise...

264
00:17:06,651 --> 00:17:09,863
Moving on, then.
How are we fixed for witness assistance?

265
00:17:09,946 --> 00:17:12,949
Does the department have sufficient funds
to ensure security

266
00:17:13,116 --> 00:17:15,160
for any endangered witnesses?

267
00:17:16,953 --> 00:17:20,957
We have the resources
that the city can afford, I'm sure.

268
00:17:21,082 --> 00:17:23,126
I understand you can't criticize the mayor.

269
00:17:23,376 --> 00:17:26,296
- Nor would I.
- Nor would you.

270
00:17:27,130 --> 00:17:28,798
So allow me to ask the question.

271
00:17:29,132 --> 00:17:31,092
What is this city willing to pay

272
00:17:31,218 --> 00:17:33,386
for ordinary people to come down
to the courthouse

273
00:17:33,470 --> 00:17:37,182
and perform the civic duty of bearing
witness against gangsters and criminals?

274
00:17:38,225 --> 00:17:41,102
What resources are commensurate
with that kind of commitment?

275
00:17:43,563 --> 00:17:46,858
You can play the good soldier if you want,
but I want to go on the record

276
00:17:46,983 --> 00:17:50,528
in saying that this administration
has passed the buck time and again

277
00:17:50,987 --> 00:17:54,241
and failed to protect citizens
who demonstrate that kind of commitment

278
00:17:54,324 --> 00:17:57,244
and put their lives and livelihood at risk.

279
00:17:58,411 --> 00:18:01,122
I would like to add
that I feel as my colleague does.

280
00:18:01,206 --> 00:18:04,000
This administration
has failed this community.

281
00:18:04,084 --> 00:18:07,212
Miserably. And we need
to do something about this.

282
00:18:13,176 --> 00:18:14,386
Come on.

283
00:18:14,803 --> 00:18:17,180
Hey! Hey, hey, hey!

284
00:18:17,514 --> 00:18:19,307
Take him, man, you got him.

285
00:18:19,975 --> 00:18:23,228
Y'all are friends. You're like brothers.

286
00:18:25,188 --> 00:18:28,692
You lose that, you lose every damn thing.
Go on.

287
00:18:34,572 --> 00:18:36,032
Kids messed up the good hoop.

288
00:18:36,241 --> 00:18:39,077
Now they got one
looks like the original peach basket...

289
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,079
And they hanging onto it like a tit.

290
00:18:42,372 --> 00:18:43,415
I don't know.

291
00:18:44,916 --> 00:18:47,627
Maybe I should get up
some kind of tournament.

292
00:18:47,711 --> 00:18:48,837
You play basketball?

293
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:53,091
Never was much for balls and sticks.
I was always about my hands.

294
00:18:53,174 --> 00:18:55,302
- Boxer?
- Yeah.

295
00:18:55,385 --> 00:18:56,928
Boxing?

296
00:18:57,887 --> 00:19:00,390
I know a place
where some of the kids go but...

297
00:19:00,932 --> 00:19:05,145
- It ain't near close enough to here.
- I wouldn't mind taking a look at it.

298
00:19:05,228 --> 00:19:07,355
Get a mental picture at least.

299
00:19:07,939 --> 00:19:09,733
What the hell's going on here?

300
00:19:11,318 --> 00:19:14,154
Police pushed all the action down here.

301
00:19:14,237 --> 00:19:16,132
The Deacon thinks maybe some people
should come in here

302
00:19:16,156 --> 00:19:18,491
and take over the situation.

303
00:19:18,575 --> 00:19:21,328
- Are you that people?
- One of them, maybe.

304
00:19:22,412 --> 00:19:24,664
- Roman, man.
- Dennis.

305
00:19:37,260 --> 00:19:41,681
You should lay back on this one. Let me go
talk to buford pusser in there alone.

306
00:19:41,765 --> 00:19:43,058
Excuse me?

307
00:19:44,642 --> 00:19:47,020
And what it shows people
is that I know my business.

308
00:19:47,103 --> 00:19:50,690
That I will hold people accountable
based on the facts.

309
00:19:50,899 --> 00:19:53,276
- It's about what's right.
- There you go again.

310
00:19:53,360 --> 00:19:54,527
What?

311
00:19:54,611 --> 00:19:57,322
Do you think politics
is only about winning the argument?

312
00:19:57,405 --> 00:20:00,825
That whoever has the right fact
at the right moment wins?

313
00:20:00,909 --> 00:20:05,038
Clinton had facts. Kennedy had facts.
Yeah, but Reagan?

314
00:20:05,121 --> 00:20:07,374
He couldn't summon a fact to save his life.

315
00:20:07,582 --> 00:20:10,251
It's not just facts, it's how you use them.

316
00:20:10,335 --> 00:20:13,797
When you get hold of a fact you go
smart-ass and start beating on people.

317
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,715
- That's...
- Clinton and Reagan...

318
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:17,133
When they got up to speak,

319
00:20:17,300 --> 00:20:20,929
they gave everyone in the room
comfort and confidence.

320
00:20:21,012 --> 00:20:25,392
You liked those guys. You were happy
to think that they even liked you.

321
00:20:25,683 --> 00:20:27,811
You're saying I'm not likable?

322
00:20:29,104 --> 00:20:30,480
Jen?

323
00:20:31,481 --> 00:20:33,733
When you're at home talking with me,

324
00:20:33,817 --> 00:20:38,530
not the council, not the cameras,
you're great.

325
00:20:38,655 --> 00:20:42,951
When you tell me
what's really important to you, I believe.

326
00:20:43,076 --> 00:20:47,539
You're smart, and you're ambitious,
and you've got a sharper tongue than most.

327
00:20:47,664 --> 00:20:49,916
You can hold court, tell a good story,

328
00:20:49,999 --> 00:20:52,502
and you can win the argument if you want.

329
00:20:53,002 --> 00:20:54,754
All of that shows, Tommy.

330
00:20:54,963 --> 00:20:57,674
And at a city council
meeting, it shows well.

331
00:20:57,757 --> 00:21:02,804
But if you want to be mayor,
or senator, or governor one day...

332
00:21:03,012 --> 00:21:05,014
Show 'em something more.

333
00:21:08,184 --> 00:21:09,936
Baltimore?

334
00:21:10,186 --> 00:21:13,398
Went up there to the harbor
with my wife for our anniversary.

335
00:21:13,481 --> 00:21:18,027
- Charged us $12 for two beers.
- Shit, that's the least of it.

336
00:21:18,528 --> 00:21:21,281
The whole damn town's
going to hell in a handbasket.

337
00:21:21,573 --> 00:21:24,200
- And guess who's running the show?
- Who?

338
00:21:24,492 --> 00:21:28,872
Who do you think?
The department, city hall, the courts.

339
00:21:28,955 --> 00:21:30,123
Shit, the courts?

340
00:21:30,373 --> 00:21:34,669
You know what they call it when judge, jury
and perp all go to the same family barbecue?

341
00:21:35,211 --> 00:21:38,131
- Catch and release.
- No shit.

342
00:21:38,214 --> 00:21:40,800
God have mercy on any poor white boy
going to trial.

343
00:21:41,050 --> 00:21:43,887
Then everybody's got their ass in the air
talking aboutjustice.

344
00:21:44,053 --> 00:21:46,389
Can't wait to throw away the key.

345
00:21:50,393 --> 00:21:53,563
I mean, they're not all so bad.

346
00:21:54,564 --> 00:21:56,858
Actually, there's a lot of good ones.

347
00:21:58,526 --> 00:22:00,862
I'm on the radio if you need me.

348
00:22:04,699 --> 00:22:06,868
My wife, Carol-Ann.

349
00:22:08,536 --> 00:22:11,164
- Some very good ones.
- Is there anything specific

350
00:22:11,247 --> 00:22:13,458
I can help you with while you're down here?

351
00:22:13,625 --> 00:22:16,252
Or is this just a courtesy call?

352
00:22:16,419 --> 00:22:20,173
You know, you should meet my partner.
You'd like her.

353
00:22:20,381 --> 00:22:22,467
Can't go through the front on this boy.

354
00:22:22,592 --> 00:22:25,470
So I'm thinking we're gonna have
to creep around the back.

355
00:22:25,553 --> 00:22:27,639
Get devonne on it.

356
00:22:27,722 --> 00:22:30,892
Oh, I got this for that other problem.

357
00:22:34,979 --> 00:22:37,273
- Who this?
- Remember fatface Rick, right?

358
00:22:37,524 --> 00:22:40,443
Been going to meetings with string.
That's his cousin, trina.

359
00:22:40,527 --> 00:22:43,696
- You mean trina with the big old ass.
- Yeah, you on it.

360
00:22:43,947 --> 00:22:47,200
That's her work number.
You know where she working at nowadays?

361
00:22:47,325 --> 00:22:49,953
She over at the department
of social services.

362
00:22:50,203 --> 00:22:52,038
So you think Omar getting a check?

363
00:22:52,121 --> 00:22:54,374
No, not now. But, I mean, once upon a time

364
00:22:54,457 --> 00:22:57,877
before some fool gave
little Omar little a shotgun,

365
00:22:57,961 --> 00:23:00,463
cocksucker was somebody's child, right?

366
00:23:00,838 --> 00:23:02,590
So somewhere down in them records

367
00:23:02,674 --> 00:23:05,802
is one or two names of Omar's people,
you feel me?

368
00:23:06,094 --> 00:23:09,138
You sure you want us
on marlo and Omar both?

369
00:23:09,222 --> 00:23:12,725
I mean, Omar ain't come back on us
since we got his bitch.

370
00:23:12,809 --> 00:23:16,020
- So maybe...
- Look, I'm home, Charles. I'm home.

371
00:23:18,356 --> 00:23:21,484
- What's up?
- Taking care of business, string?

372
00:23:24,571 --> 00:23:26,864
Me too, man. Me, too.

373
00:23:45,425 --> 00:23:49,804
- East side wasn't ready for us?
- That's what I'm saying.

374
00:23:57,270 --> 00:24:00,815
Yeah, I know all about baba jani
and his 24-hour turnover.

375
00:24:01,441 --> 00:24:03,901
It's a real pain in my ass, too.

376
00:24:03,985 --> 00:24:05,820
He's got a problem with the school kids.

377
00:24:05,903 --> 00:24:09,115
Every afternoon they go in there,
crowd him at the counter,

378
00:24:09,198 --> 00:24:11,117
boost all the car and gun magazines.

379
00:24:11,492 --> 00:24:15,788
That surveillance tape's so grainy
it's like watching buffalo in a snowstorm.

380
00:24:15,872 --> 00:24:18,499
But my insurance man, Bob,

381
00:24:18,875 --> 00:24:21,878
I got him to turn this camera here
right on baba's parking lot.

382
00:24:22,378 --> 00:24:26,049
Now, any time I have a real problem,
I just come to Bob and pull his tape.

383
00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:29,594
I can get a copy of that for you
in the morning.

384
00:24:32,930 --> 00:24:35,850
Your partner there.

385
00:24:36,726 --> 00:24:38,561
Bit of an asshole.

386
00:24:40,063 --> 00:24:42,607
- For real?
- Yeah.

387
00:24:44,817 --> 00:24:47,904
Good, good, good! That's it! Work!

388
00:24:49,697 --> 00:24:51,949
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Go to your right.

389
00:24:53,660 --> 00:24:55,078
One, two, three!

390
00:25:14,097 --> 00:25:16,099
Yeah, right hand up.

391
00:25:25,358 --> 00:25:28,277
You know what this is? It's moral midgetry.

392
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:33,366
Turn the fucking world upside down and treat
these braindead corner yos like princelings.

393
00:25:33,783 --> 00:25:35,618
You see how clean the corners are?

394
00:25:35,785 --> 00:25:38,121
Street traffic is half what it was.

395
00:25:38,287 --> 00:25:40,707
Fuck that. It's wrong, and it's wrong.

396
00:25:40,998 --> 00:25:43,334
Because the other way
we were doing so well.

397
00:25:43,668 --> 00:25:47,714
Colvin's answer is what? Ride shotgun
for hoppers? Drown them in cash money?

398
00:25:47,797 --> 00:25:49,507
Colvin? He's always been good police.

399
00:25:49,590 --> 00:25:53,469
Then he's got to know what a heartbreaker
it is to suit up for this shit.

400
00:25:53,636 --> 00:25:55,346
He's got to suit up too, man.

401
00:25:55,930 --> 00:25:58,307
Somebody should dime the brass
about this shit.

402
00:25:58,933 --> 00:26:01,394
- Or the sun papers.
- Let me ask you something.

403
00:26:01,936 --> 00:26:05,273
Anybody here getjammed up
and not have Colvin go to the wall for you?

404
00:26:05,898 --> 00:26:09,610
The man is trying something. It may
be hard to stomach, but it's working.

405
00:26:09,694 --> 00:26:13,114
After 30 years,
he's earned the right to some elbow room.

406
00:26:13,197 --> 00:26:16,117
What the fuck.
This thing is on borrowed time, anyhow.

407
00:26:16,325 --> 00:26:19,245
And when we do decide
to jump on hamsterdams

408
00:26:19,328 --> 00:26:21,998
they're just gonna go back
to their regular corners, right?

409
00:26:22,081 --> 00:26:25,668
If we everjump out on it.
I don't know that we're gonna.

410
00:26:25,835 --> 00:26:29,881
All I'm saying is let's give the guy
the same backup he's always given us.

411
00:26:30,339 --> 00:26:32,467
That's all I'm saying.

412
00:26:36,679 --> 00:26:40,516
I swear, as soon as the sun comes up,
we grab that damn tape and go.

413
00:26:41,058 --> 00:26:43,060
This place makes me want to cry.

414
00:26:43,728 --> 00:26:46,355
I spent half my marriage
in rooms like this.

415
00:26:48,191 --> 00:26:49,692
How could you do it?

416
00:26:50,902 --> 00:26:52,236
What?

417
00:26:53,029 --> 00:26:56,824
- Go nonstop hound on your ex like that.
- It's easy.

418
00:26:57,074 --> 00:26:59,410
Just tell her I was on the road
working an extradition.

419
00:27:00,703 --> 00:27:02,121
Lots of extraditions.

420
00:27:03,039 --> 00:27:06,209
Brought back something like 500 fugitives
in a three-year period, I think.

421
00:27:07,043 --> 00:27:10,087
- That's not what I meant.
- Right.

422
00:27:16,594 --> 00:27:18,596
So, you're back in the house?

423
00:27:20,807 --> 00:27:22,975
Ate some shit and she took me back, yeah.

424
00:27:24,894 --> 00:27:27,313
I ain't sure I even
want to be back, though.

425
00:27:32,860 --> 00:27:34,946
Extraditions, huh?

426
00:27:36,155 --> 00:27:39,492
- Cheryl would see right through that shit.
- No, it's easy.

427
00:27:40,785 --> 00:27:43,746
You keep your cell off,
make sure she can reach your partner.

428
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,916
Partner tells her, "kima's in court"
or whatever.

429
00:27:47,375 --> 00:27:51,254
Partner calls you, gives you the heads up, you
call her back later like, "hey, what's up?"

430
00:27:59,595 --> 00:28:02,306
Ain't even got a quarter box
for the magic fingers.

431
00:28:04,851 --> 00:28:06,611
Maybe you don't need
a quarter box for that.

432
00:28:08,396 --> 00:28:09,605
For what?

433
00:28:10,690 --> 00:28:12,108
Magic fingers.

434
00:28:20,616 --> 00:28:21,951
You know me.

435
00:28:22,910 --> 00:28:25,705
With a singer-songwriter
who's burnin' up the charts

436
00:28:25,788 --> 00:28:27,957
with a hit that he'll
perform for us tonight...

437
00:28:44,348 --> 00:28:47,018
- You hustling?
- Educating.

438
00:28:49,312 --> 00:28:51,814
Are you charging for it or tuition-free?

439
00:28:51,898 --> 00:28:55,234
Tuition will come back to him tenfold
in acquired wisdom.

440
00:28:55,318 --> 00:28:58,821
Besides, nothing in the world's
more expensive than "free."

441
00:28:58,905 --> 00:29:00,406
That's all she wrote.

442
00:29:01,490 --> 00:29:02,575
Let's double it.

443
00:29:02,658 --> 00:29:05,536
I don't like taking money
from a churchgoing man.

444
00:29:05,620 --> 00:29:07,914
- Triple it.
- Your break, Deacon.

445
00:29:13,252 --> 00:29:15,713
We need to talk
some more about hamsterdam.

446
00:29:15,796 --> 00:29:17,548
Look, I never said it was pretty.

447
00:29:17,632 --> 00:29:20,885
Pretty doesn't even come close
to the problem.

448
00:29:20,968 --> 00:29:22,720
We need to talk.

449
00:29:26,223 --> 00:29:28,184
I've got a comstat meeting.

450
00:29:28,851 --> 00:29:30,853
I'll drop by later on.

451
00:29:35,024 --> 00:29:38,110
- So we good with the permits?
- Yeah, this week, so far, so good.

452
00:29:38,527 --> 00:29:41,572
- All right.
- Look at you.

453
00:29:41,864 --> 00:29:44,575
- Who?
- Chunky coates.

454
00:29:44,659 --> 00:29:46,869
- Who's that?
- You don't know chunky?

455
00:29:47,036 --> 00:29:50,498
He's got the properties down the block
and over on paca street.

456
00:29:50,581 --> 00:29:55,795
He used to have an office so small you had
to leave the room to change your mind.

457
00:29:55,878 --> 00:29:59,340
Then two years ago he started running
with your man, Clay Davis.

458
00:30:01,425 --> 00:30:04,053
Look at you now, you big sassy bitch.

459
00:30:05,346 --> 00:30:07,431
- That better?
- Mm-hm.

460
00:30:08,391 --> 00:30:13,062
Hey, special agent fitzhugh,
if that is in fact your real name.

461
00:30:14,563 --> 00:30:17,066
FBI in on this?

462
00:30:17,191 --> 00:30:20,528
I am only loved for my toys.
Lester called and I delivered.

463
00:30:20,736 --> 00:30:22,613
You got the tape?

464
00:30:23,489 --> 00:30:27,994
Date of 10/10/04.15:04 hours, 30 seconds...

465
00:30:28,077 --> 00:30:29,745
By the register tape.

466
00:30:35,251 --> 00:30:37,253
Mama barksdale?

467
00:30:39,088 --> 00:30:40,506
D'Angelo's mother.

468
00:30:40,631 --> 00:30:44,343
She cold-called mcnulty
about her son on the jailhouse hanging.

469
00:30:44,427 --> 00:30:46,929
She's calling us on that weak shit?

470
00:30:47,054 --> 00:30:50,683
Is this, er, Brianna? Right.

471
00:30:50,766 --> 00:30:53,853
You called about your son.
I'm returning that message.

472
00:30:54,854 --> 00:30:55,855
Uh-oh.

473
00:30:57,898 --> 00:30:59,108
Nothing there.

474
00:31:00,109 --> 00:31:03,195
It's so tiny. No mere mortal can...

475
00:31:03,696 --> 00:31:06,073
Ohh...

476
00:31:06,157 --> 00:31:08,534
You see what he just did?

477
00:31:09,535 --> 00:31:11,662
What? He did it again.

478
00:31:11,954 --> 00:31:14,540
Who is this man? Where does he come from?

479
00:31:15,082 --> 00:31:16,584
Can anybody stop him?

480
00:31:16,667 --> 00:31:19,670
Please don't hurt us, please.
My eyes! My eyes!

481
00:31:19,754 --> 00:31:22,381
It's so big and clear and bright.

482
00:31:22,798 --> 00:31:24,592
I'll be at homicide.

483
00:31:24,675 --> 00:31:27,636
Sometimes you still
scare me, you know that?

484
00:31:34,810 --> 00:31:38,314
In my world,
do you have any idea what I had to do

485
00:31:38,647 --> 00:31:40,149
to get where I am today?

486
00:31:41,150 --> 00:31:44,487
Now, when I say I'm
ready, you best believe it.

487
00:31:48,616 --> 00:31:52,161
Through the effective use
of resources, and increased police presence

488
00:31:52,661 --> 00:31:55,372
and an intensive reach-out
into the community,

489
00:31:56,499 --> 00:31:59,251
we've had a significant
impact on these areas

490
00:31:59,502 --> 00:32:02,213
to the effect of a 12% decrease overall.

491
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,174
- 12%?
- Cumulatively.

492
00:32:05,674 --> 00:32:08,803
- Over four weeks.
- Major, I know I gave you shit

493
00:32:08,886 --> 00:32:12,389
when your stats took a jump
a few weeks back,

494
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,851
but now you're gonna shove the numbers
right up my ass?

495
00:32:16,936 --> 00:32:18,604
It's kind of pouty of you, isn't it?

496
00:32:18,687 --> 00:32:22,525
12%. I didn't cook them then,
I ain't cooking them now.

497
00:32:22,608 --> 00:32:25,486
I already got the city council
asking questions

498
00:32:25,569 --> 00:32:27,738
about the 8% drop you posted last week.

499
00:32:28,447 --> 00:32:32,827
We just want to please the mayor,
not go to jail behind this shit.

500
00:32:33,702 --> 00:32:35,538
Sometimes the gods do listen, sir.

501
00:32:35,621 --> 00:32:38,791
Not in the western, they don't.
Lieutenant Daniels?

502
00:32:38,874 --> 00:32:41,752
- Sir?
- You want to take credit for any of this?

503
00:32:42,211 --> 00:32:44,964
Your unit's been working in that district
a couple of weeks.

504
00:32:45,506 --> 00:32:47,258
We're barely up on anything.

505
00:32:47,466 --> 00:32:50,719
In fact, the crews we're looking at
are still beefing, still dropping bodies.

506
00:32:51,262 --> 00:32:55,224
Amazing. Crime is down
and no one wants to take any credit.

507
00:32:55,307 --> 00:32:57,393
What is wrong with this picture?

508
00:32:58,519 --> 00:33:01,772
You don't mind if! Have planning and
research pull all your cc numbers?

509
00:33:02,189 --> 00:33:04,900
Make sure there's not
a decimal point missing.

510
00:33:05,192 --> 00:33:08,320
Pull everything, deputy.
That number will stand.

511
00:33:20,958 --> 00:33:23,669
I called because I heard
you went and visited donette.

512
00:33:25,129 --> 00:33:28,007
Told her my son's death couldn't
have been no suicide. Is that right?

513
00:33:29,758 --> 00:33:31,135
I did do that.

514
00:33:32,678 --> 00:33:34,555
D'Angelo hung himself.

515
00:33:37,016 --> 00:33:39,268
Not with the belt they
found around his neck.

516
00:33:39,351 --> 00:33:42,271
Not at that distance
between the doorknob and the floor.

517
00:33:43,647 --> 00:33:44,982
So what are you saying?

518
00:33:46,859 --> 00:33:49,278
- What am I saying?
- No.

519
00:33:50,946 --> 00:33:52,990
Nobody would've dared.

520
00:33:53,574 --> 00:33:56,869
- My brother, his uncle, would have...
- I agree with you.

521
00:33:58,287 --> 00:34:02,166
Nobody would've dared. Unless...

522
00:34:04,460 --> 00:34:07,630
- Avon and Dee was family.
- Family, right.

523
00:34:12,801 --> 00:34:15,054
This is just you talking, right?

524
00:34:15,304 --> 00:34:18,724
- I mean, anyone else saying it?
- No, just me.

525
00:34:18,807 --> 00:34:21,810
- No one else cares.
- Right.

526
00:34:22,770 --> 00:34:25,731
It's just, I don't know, on the inside...

527
00:34:26,023 --> 00:34:30,444
If somebody's going after you,
has got a beef, sees red, they use a shank.

528
00:34:31,028 --> 00:34:32,947
It's quick and it's over.

529
00:34:33,989 --> 00:34:38,244
D'Angelo was strangled, which is planned.

530
00:34:38,327 --> 00:34:41,163
You need the time, you need the isolation.

531
00:34:43,666 --> 00:34:45,918
I'm sorry I brought this whole mess up,

532
00:34:46,001 --> 00:34:49,338
'cause frankly,
no one's gonna do shit about it anyhow.

533
00:34:49,838 --> 00:34:52,591
Whoever killed him
wanted to pass it off as a suicide

534
00:34:52,675 --> 00:34:55,386
and the cops are happy
to have one less murder to investigate.

535
00:34:55,678 --> 00:34:58,347
The Anne arundel state's attorney
doesn't give a fuck.

536
00:34:58,430 --> 00:35:00,224
I'm not supposed to give a fuck, so...

537
00:35:03,018 --> 00:35:05,271
I guess your son
just got squeezed between the sides.

538
00:35:06,939 --> 00:35:08,941
Squeezed between what sides?

539
00:35:10,025 --> 00:35:15,322
Look, two years ago, we hung more wire
on your brother's crew than at&t...

540
00:35:15,406 --> 00:35:19,285
And d'Angelo was this close to flipping,
giving up everybody, everything.

541
00:35:19,368 --> 00:35:20,869
But you know all that, right?

542
00:35:21,203 --> 00:35:24,873
You went down that detention center
and talked your son out of a deal.

543
00:35:29,169 --> 00:35:31,297
I kind of liked your son, you know?

544
00:35:33,299 --> 00:35:35,551
All things considered,
he was a pretty decent kid.

545
00:35:35,926 --> 00:35:38,721
And it grinds me
that no one ever spoke up for him.

546
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,515
Seems to me that nobody ever will.

547
00:35:42,558 --> 00:35:45,436
But, mostly at this point,
I'm sorry I bothered his girl

548
00:35:45,894 --> 00:35:47,563
and I'm sorry she bothered you.

549
00:35:49,732 --> 00:35:51,233
Why go to her?

550
00:35:52,443 --> 00:35:55,321
- Why not come to me first?
- Honestly?

551
00:35:57,364 --> 00:35:59,491
I was looking for somebody
who cared about the kid.

552
00:36:00,409 --> 00:36:05,205
I mean, like I said, you were the one
who made him take the years, right?

553
00:36:19,261 --> 00:36:23,807
Red leader to red boys.
Red two come in.

554
00:36:24,767 --> 00:36:26,894
Cheese steak has a problem, bitch.

555
00:36:28,062 --> 00:36:29,980
Save me some fries, yo.

556
00:36:30,272 --> 00:36:33,067
You want fries?
I suggest you bring some cash up here.

557
00:36:33,150 --> 00:36:34,860
Can you believe this?

558
00:36:36,445 --> 00:36:40,032
No muscle, it's all out in the open.

559
00:36:41,450 --> 00:36:45,704
No, no, no, man. This right here, boy.

560
00:36:46,288 --> 00:36:47,998
This too good.

561
00:36:50,209 --> 00:36:54,296
This some kind of full-tilt setup, man,
to catch a master scoundrel.

562
00:36:54,463 --> 00:36:56,131
Capone and whatnot.

563
00:36:56,256 --> 00:37:02,554
They probably got police behind every
window. Hit this? You must be tripping.

564
00:37:03,555 --> 00:37:05,140
Home, James.

565
00:37:06,809 --> 00:37:09,228
Boy, you better keep
your head back in the game

566
00:37:09,311 --> 00:37:10,896
or you gonna land us both in the pokey.

567
00:37:49,351 --> 00:37:51,687
- What you looking at?
- You.

568
00:37:52,896 --> 00:37:54,565
Yeah?

569
00:37:54,648 --> 00:37:58,610
I like your eyes. They're like cat eyes.

570
00:37:59,027 --> 00:38:01,572
- Who you here with?
- Them.

571
00:38:03,031 --> 00:38:05,075
That's it?

572
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,369
What kind of cat?

573
00:38:07,494 --> 00:38:09,913
- What?
- What kind of cat are my eyes like?

574
00:38:12,374 --> 00:38:14,084
A big cat.

575
00:38:17,421 --> 00:38:20,215
- You here with them and no one else?
- I said that.

576
00:38:20,757 --> 00:38:23,427
- You wanna dance?
- Hell, no.

577
00:38:23,844 --> 00:38:26,597
- You want a drink?
- No, I don't do that neither.

578
00:38:28,015 --> 00:38:29,850
What do you do?

579
00:38:50,746 --> 00:38:52,557
Gene, this spot
I'm telling you about?

580
00:38:52,581 --> 00:38:56,376
We're talking tb, HIV, syphilis...

581
00:38:56,668 --> 00:38:58,629
Herpes, lice.

582
00:38:58,712 --> 00:39:00,506
It's like a five-acre petri dish.

583
00:39:00,589 --> 00:39:02,049
You get in there now,

584
00:39:02,132 --> 00:39:05,385
you can run every health program
or social program you want.

585
00:39:05,469 --> 00:39:09,681
Hell, every kind of liberal-ass project
never got off the page it was written on.

586
00:39:09,765 --> 00:39:11,099
Jurassic park.

587
00:39:11,391 --> 00:39:13,852
So this is a sanctioned
open-air drug market.

588
00:39:13,936 --> 00:39:18,106
No, it's not officially sanctioned.
It's more like it's tolerated.

589
00:39:18,607 --> 00:39:22,152
That's why we came to you and the public
health school not the city health department.

590
00:39:22,236 --> 00:39:27,157
Needle exchange, drug outreach,
condoms, HIV testing.

591
00:39:27,574 --> 00:39:30,077
You're never gonna reach more people
in the same spot.

592
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,539
- If the city doesn't know, that makes it...
- Complicated.

593
00:39:33,622 --> 00:39:36,875
That means temporary.
You move it or you lose it, boss.

594
00:40:01,358 --> 00:40:02,693
That was nice.

595
00:40:04,695 --> 00:40:06,780
It worked for me.

596
00:40:09,533 --> 00:40:12,244
- You free tomorrow?
- Tomorrow?

597
00:40:14,121 --> 00:40:17,666
You could come back to my crib.
Nobody's there but my grandma.

598
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:21,837
Get us a real bed. Take some time with it.

599
00:40:24,131 --> 00:40:25,966
Give me your number.

600
00:40:29,886 --> 00:40:31,930
The reason I'm saying
tomorrow, not to push,

601
00:40:32,014 --> 00:40:34,933
but day after that I gotta
go visit my aunt in Florida.

602
00:40:36,351 --> 00:40:37,603
We hook up tomorrow,

603
00:40:37,686 --> 00:40:42,232
I got something real nice to think about
on that long-ass bus ride.

604
00:40:45,652 --> 00:40:47,154
After you.

605
00:40:52,326 --> 00:40:54,870
- What was it again?
- Devonne.

606
00:41:17,392 --> 00:41:20,228
This guy's running his
route every five days.

607
00:41:20,479 --> 00:41:23,231
- That's a shitload of burners.
- I don't get it.

608
00:41:23,315 --> 00:41:26,568
They were so careful spreading out
purchases up and down the three states,

609
00:41:27,152 --> 00:41:29,488
you'd think they'd also
switch up rental agencies.

610
00:41:30,364 --> 00:41:34,326
Maybe the guy felt bad for us.
You got a copier, right?

611
00:41:50,926 --> 00:41:52,928
Damn, girl, what, you lose some weight?

612
00:41:53,011 --> 00:41:55,430
- Excuse me?
- It's just a compliment.

613
00:42:25,293 --> 00:42:27,170
Yo, that's Mrs. Omar?

614
00:42:28,797 --> 00:42:30,507
Yeah, his grandmoms.

615
00:42:30,590 --> 00:42:32,801
So what, we Jack her and make her talk?

616
00:42:32,968 --> 00:42:36,179
Fool, she probably got no clue
where he lay his head.

617
00:42:38,807 --> 00:42:41,309
No, man, we sit and we wait, right?

618
00:42:44,062 --> 00:42:45,981
Man, wait on what?

619
00:42:48,817 --> 00:42:50,444
Stupid motherfucker.

620
00:42:51,778 --> 00:42:56,616
Now, see, if we go upstairs, we'll
spook him. So he's coming down. All right?

621
00:43:05,542 --> 00:43:07,544
Uh-uh.

622
00:43:11,131 --> 00:43:12,758
Russell bell.

623
00:43:14,926 --> 00:43:17,596
I know b&b
like I know a thousand other outfits,

624
00:43:17,763 --> 00:43:19,723
but I don't know him.

625
00:43:19,806 --> 00:43:20,974
Why should I talk to him?

626
00:43:21,057 --> 00:43:25,353
Because Russell's a good man.
And he's ready to run.

627
00:43:26,521 --> 00:43:29,024
- Then let him run for you.
- Hang on.

628
00:43:29,149 --> 00:43:30,776
Wait a minute, partner.

629
00:43:30,859 --> 00:43:34,863
I don't think you know who you're
dealing with here. You know who that is?

630
00:43:38,033 --> 00:43:39,159
Have a nice day.

631
00:43:48,543 --> 00:43:53,048
- Got your running shoes on? You're in.
- That's the faucet?

632
00:43:53,256 --> 00:43:56,301
As far as the federal money's
concerned, he's everything.

633
00:43:56,384 --> 00:43:57,677
The faucet, the goose.

634
00:43:57,761 --> 00:44:00,889
- What goose?
- The one that lays them golden eggs.

635
00:44:18,365 --> 00:44:20,909
Madison square garden it ain't.

636
00:44:21,535 --> 00:44:23,578
But it could work.

637
00:44:26,289 --> 00:44:28,209
You're gonna need a little help
with the cleanup.

638
00:44:28,792 --> 00:44:30,669
I'll piece that together.

639
00:44:35,006 --> 00:44:36,925
This my trip, man.

640
00:44:37,801 --> 00:44:40,679
Need to go from a to b all by myself.

641
00:44:42,430 --> 00:44:45,016
Am I likely to find less crime,
or more incidents

642
00:44:45,100 --> 00:44:47,102
that have been downgraded or unfounded?

643
00:44:47,185 --> 00:44:49,688
Because this kind of variation screams...

644
00:44:49,771 --> 00:44:51,273
Slow your words.

645
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,943
Try to lock your eyes
on whoever you talk to.

646
00:44:55,277 --> 00:44:57,612
Make them think they matter.

647
00:44:58,238 --> 00:45:01,366
Use open, warm phrases.
Nothing sharp, nothing that bites.

648
00:45:01,992 --> 00:45:04,953
- Where's the fun in that?
- Do you want this?

649
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,123
Does the department have sufficient funds
to ensure security

650
00:45:08,206 --> 00:45:10,166
for any endangered witnesses?

651
00:45:10,250 --> 00:45:13,545
What is this city willing to pay
to make it possible for ordinary...

652
00:45:13,753 --> 00:45:15,755
- It's me.
- Hey. How you, cat eyes?

653
00:45:15,839 --> 00:45:17,507
- When you leaving?
- Tomorrow.

654
00:45:17,591 --> 00:45:20,468
- Wanna get together tonight?
- Yeah, we could hook up tonight.

655
00:45:21,261 --> 00:45:24,973
- How about coming over to my crib?
- No, not your crib.

656
00:45:25,181 --> 00:45:27,642
- Where then?
- Go to a motel.

657
00:45:28,101 --> 00:45:30,729
You want me to meet you? Which one?

658
00:45:30,812 --> 00:45:33,773
I don't know which one.
I'll tell you when I see you.

659
00:45:34,274 --> 00:45:38,361
- I'd like to see you soon.
- All right, you know lake trout?

660
00:45:38,445 --> 00:45:41,615
- Carry-out? Where?
- On woodland.

661
00:45:41,698 --> 00:45:43,909
- Off reisterstown road?
- That one.

662
00:45:43,992 --> 00:45:45,911
Later this afternoon?

663
00:45:46,119 --> 00:45:50,290
- I'll be there. What time you want to meet?
- Like five.

664
00:45:51,166 --> 00:45:55,837
And five mean five. I don't truck op time.
Five and change, I'm gone.

665
00:45:55,921 --> 00:45:58,256
- I ain't gonna be late.
- All right, then.

666
00:45:58,548 --> 00:46:00,216
See you then.

667
00:46:04,429 --> 00:46:06,473
What you think about that?

668
00:46:11,144 --> 00:46:12,771
I don't know.

669
00:46:13,521 --> 00:46:16,441
Might be walking into
something a little later.

670
00:46:16,524 --> 00:46:20,028
So I'm gonna need for you to go up there
and get me a read upfront.

671
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,998
- Where's my brother?
- Shut the door, man.

672
00:46:33,416 --> 00:46:37,462
- Yo, we at war right now, sis. So he on that.
- I need to get with him.

673
00:46:37,879 --> 00:46:39,047
He ain't on the cellphone.

674
00:46:39,130 --> 00:46:42,217
Soon as I speak to him,
I'll get him to you, all right?

675
00:46:42,550 --> 00:46:44,636
I can't believe this shit.

676
00:46:48,682 --> 00:46:52,143
Heard from this cop.
He's saying Dee was murdered.

677
00:46:52,227 --> 00:46:55,188
Oh... that'd be mcnulty.

678
00:46:55,730 --> 00:46:57,023
How you know?

679
00:46:57,857 --> 00:47:01,653
Well, Levy figured he couldn't talk you
out of the meet but I sure wish he tried.

680
00:47:02,696 --> 00:47:05,740
- I need to get with my brother.
- Come on.

681
00:47:06,366 --> 00:47:07,909
This fucking cop.

682
00:47:09,244 --> 00:47:12,288
He trying to drive a wedge up in here, man.
You can't see it?

683
00:47:18,753 --> 00:47:22,590
I can imagine how hard it is for a mother
to have to deal with some shit like that,

684
00:47:22,674 --> 00:47:26,094
but the fact is these places,
they press on niggers.

685
00:47:27,429 --> 00:47:29,973
Dee just figured a way
to get out of there early.

686
00:47:30,598 --> 00:47:33,768
Ain't nothing nobody can do about that.

687
00:47:35,437 --> 00:47:37,605
I mean, how do you protect
a man from himself?

688
00:47:38,106 --> 00:47:40,692
Where avon at? I'll go to him.

689
00:47:40,817 --> 00:47:42,861
We beefing for corners right now.

690
00:47:42,944 --> 00:47:45,447
As soon as I speak to him,
I'll get him to you, I promise.

691
00:47:50,035 --> 00:47:52,245
A cop shouldn't mess with a mother's pain.

692
00:47:52,412 --> 00:47:54,080
No one should.

693
00:47:54,789 --> 00:47:56,041
Mm-mm.

694
00:48:06,051 --> 00:48:09,929
Yeah, let me get four trout on white,
extra Mayo on one,

695
00:48:10,013 --> 00:48:12,640
hot sauce on two and
the other with ketchup.

696
00:48:12,807 --> 00:48:14,726
And four orange sodas.

697
00:48:53,973 --> 00:48:57,685
This clown-ass nigger went and got
four sandwiches and four sodas, man.

698
00:48:57,811 --> 00:48:59,771
- You heard me?
- Cool.

699
00:49:05,276 --> 00:49:07,737
Niggers don't roll out in a few minutes,
we on to something.

700
00:49:13,284 --> 00:49:15,912
Drop one, get one!

701
00:49:15,995 --> 00:49:19,749
- No, baby, this one's sentimental.
- Here, it's bleach.

702
00:49:19,833 --> 00:49:22,710
- Soak your works and you're good to go.
- Thank you.

703
00:49:23,837 --> 00:49:25,463
Drop one, get one!

704
00:49:25,547 --> 00:49:27,423
Have you ever been tested before?

705
00:49:27,507 --> 00:49:30,093
Drop one, get one!

706
00:49:30,593 --> 00:49:32,220
Get the other girls to come by.

707
00:49:32,804 --> 00:49:35,390
You have a cough
that hangs on...?

708
00:49:35,473 --> 00:49:36,683
Oh, wait.

709
00:49:38,059 --> 00:49:39,894
Just pass these out for me, okay?

710
00:49:40,228 --> 00:49:42,522
- How's your appetite?
- Two for one here!

711
00:49:43,731 --> 00:49:46,317
I just rolled for peanut butter.
You got anything else?

712
00:49:46,401 --> 00:49:49,070
- The fuck I look like to you, chef boyardee?
- Who?

713
00:49:49,404 --> 00:49:52,490
When all this bullshit falls apart,
I'm gonna kick your butt...!

714
00:50:23,229 --> 00:50:25,190
Go by them slow.

715
00:50:45,293 --> 00:50:46,669
Oh, shit!

716
00:50:47,629 --> 00:50:48,963
Oh, my god!

717
00:50:50,048 --> 00:50:51,925
- You hit?
- No.

718
00:50:52,008 --> 00:50:53,968
Drive, motherfucker, get out of here!

719
00:50:55,845 --> 00:50:57,889
Get down!

720
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:05,813
God damn!

721
00:51:12,654 --> 00:51:16,532
Now your man better be as good as his word.
Or your word.

722
00:51:20,828 --> 00:51:23,498
If you are still in possession
of that kind of mentality

723
00:51:23,873 --> 00:51:25,500
then you are definitely not ready.

724
00:51:26,668 --> 00:51:27,835
- String...
- Not now.

725
00:51:27,919 --> 00:51:29,379
- It's avon.
- Shut the door.

726
00:51:34,509 --> 00:51:36,219
Let's do it.

727
00:51:40,765 --> 00:51:42,475
I'll be in touch, partner.

728
00:51:45,186 --> 00:51:46,562
- What is it?
- Avon's been hit.

729
00:51:46,646 --> 00:51:47,897
- Where?
- In the shoulder.

730
00:51:47,981 --> 00:51:51,401
Tater got killed. Avon
still breathing, man.

731
00:51:52,151 --> 00:51:55,113
But Brianna all over me, calling me, man.
I need to tell her.

732
00:51:55,196 --> 00:51:56,364
- Fuck Brianna.
- What?

733
00:51:56,489 --> 00:51:58,289
Just keep the bitch away from me,
you hear me?

734
00:52:10,211 --> 00:52:13,589
If you put them pit bull-style stitches
in me, the next patient gonna be you.

735
00:52:13,965 --> 00:52:17,218
- For real.
- What, you don't like rawhide?

736
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,137
Marlo!

737
00:52:20,930 --> 00:52:23,391
We finna get back to old times, baby.

738
00:52:33,776 --> 00:52:36,362
Hey, Anthony. Where you at?

739
00:52:37,989 --> 00:52:40,408
First floor, 1034 north mount, sir.

740
00:52:43,244 --> 00:52:44,245
Good.

741
00:52:54,255 --> 00:52:56,299
They're expecting us to hit back wild.

742
00:52:56,424 --> 00:52:59,969
That's what they're waiting for,
but we gonna sit back on it for a while.

743
00:53:00,053 --> 00:53:02,263
- Let them sweat.
- Yo, we got to talk.

744
00:53:02,430 --> 00:53:03,765
Hold on.

745
00:53:04,015 --> 00:53:07,101
He got to come out on his corners,
that's how he make money, right?

746
00:53:07,268 --> 00:53:09,896
- We gonna see who got the bigger war chest.
- Avon?

747
00:53:20,365 --> 00:53:23,368
- Straight to the mattresses.
- Whatever. What you want, man?

748
00:53:23,451 --> 00:53:27,288
- "War," man, we past this bullshit.
- Yeah, I forgot.

749
00:53:27,372 --> 00:53:30,416
You know, I knew I forgot something.
We the trump brothers.

750
00:53:30,792 --> 00:53:32,543
Man, you don't give this shit up,

751
00:53:32,627 --> 00:53:34,962
you're gonna turn
everything we built to shit.

752
00:53:37,298 --> 00:53:39,175
The chump brothers.

753
00:53:40,551 --> 00:53:42,231
You know the difference
between me and you?

754
00:53:42,553 --> 00:53:45,556
I bleed red, you bleed green.

755
00:53:45,807 --> 00:53:47,934
What you been building for us?

756
00:53:48,017 --> 00:53:50,436
You know what, I look at you,
you know what I see?

757
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:52,146
I see a man without a country.

758
00:53:53,022 --> 00:53:57,110
Not hard enough for this right here.
And maybe, just maybe,

759
00:53:57,360 --> 00:54:00,363
- not smart enough for them out there.
- Not hard enough?

760
00:54:00,822 --> 00:54:03,574
No offense,
but I don't think you ever really were.

761
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,328
- You got skills, yeah, no doubt, but...
- What?

762
00:54:07,703 --> 00:54:11,958
What, 'cause I don't shoot up a block,
indiscriminate, I ain't hard enough?

763
00:54:12,708 --> 00:54:17,672
Because I think before I snatch a life,
I ain't into this bullshit?

764
00:54:17,839 --> 00:54:19,340
Snatch a life?

765
00:54:20,550 --> 00:54:22,593
What life you snatch?

766
00:54:29,434 --> 00:54:32,437
You know, Brianna went downtown, man,
saw that detective.

767
00:54:33,646 --> 00:54:37,859
Man stoking her head saying
that d'Angelo's death was no suicide.

768
00:54:38,860 --> 00:54:40,695
Yeah, so?

769
00:54:42,363 --> 00:54:44,031
The man ain't wrong about that.

770
00:54:48,286 --> 00:54:50,037
What?

771
00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:52,373
Yeah.

772
00:54:54,584 --> 00:54:56,294
I knew you couldn't do it

773
00:54:57,253 --> 00:54:59,255
and Brianna wouldn't do that shit.

774
00:55:02,550 --> 00:55:04,844
But there go a life
that had to be snatched, avon.

775
00:55:18,774 --> 00:55:21,235
I took that shit off you, and put it on me

776
00:55:21,319 --> 00:55:23,571
because that motherfucker
was out of pocket.

777
00:55:23,654 --> 00:55:25,698
20 years above his fucking head.

778
00:55:26,365 --> 00:55:28,743
He flip, they got you and me
and fucking Brianna!

779
00:55:28,826 --> 00:55:31,412
No fucking way, man. Hell no!

780
00:55:31,787 --> 00:55:34,665
Now, I know you're family.
You loved that nigger.

781
00:55:34,749 --> 00:55:38,586
But that "blood is thicker than water"
bullshit, take that shit somewhere else!

782
00:55:39,295 --> 00:55:40,564
That motherfucker would have taken down

783
00:55:40,588 --> 00:55:43,216
the whole fucking show
starting with you, killer!

784
00:55:45,426 --> 00:55:48,262
He was fucking everything and everybody!

785
00:55:54,435 --> 00:55:55,728
Let me up.

786
00:56:03,069 --> 00:56:04,111
Let me up.

787
00:56:08,407 --> 00:56:10,910
Shit.
