1
00:00:09,427 --> 00:00:11,262
(Vondas) Joe will be missed.

2
00:00:11,345 --> 00:00:14,140
Very much missed. We liked Joe.

3
00:00:14,223 --> 00:00:16,642
A hard man not to like.

4
00:00:17,768 --> 00:00:20,271
Tomorrow ain't promised to no one.

5
00:00:22,273 --> 00:00:26,027
Meanwhile, we go on.

6
00:00:26,694 --> 00:00:30,031
In business, in life,

7
00:00:30,114 --> 00:00:33,409
what you learn to appreciate the most
is a dependable man.

8
00:00:33,492 --> 00:00:35,995
One day same as the next.

9
00:00:36,078 --> 00:00:38,247
Yeah, I learned a lot from watching Joe.

10
00:00:38,331 --> 00:00:41,334
We deal with you or your second.

11
00:00:42,460 --> 00:00:45,504
No one else. No one else knows our names.

12
00:00:45,588 --> 00:00:48,382
No one else contacts us.

13
00:00:48,466 --> 00:00:49,842
Understand?

14
00:00:50,718 --> 00:00:53,387
To contact us, use this...

15
00:00:53,471 --> 00:00:55,181
Only.

16
00:00:55,264 --> 00:00:57,767
Man, I don't talk on no cellphones.

17
00:00:59,143 --> 00:01:01,729
Here. To call for lunch, you can talk.

18
00:01:01,812 --> 00:01:03,397
To call your girl, you can talk.

19
00:01:03,481 --> 00:01:05,691
To call your lawyer even, you can talk.

20
00:01:05,775 --> 00:01:08,236
The law says that is between you
and the lawyer.

21
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,238
- Mmm.
- All right?

22
00:01:10,321 --> 00:01:14,242
To find out what movie is playing
down the street, you can talk.

23
00:01:14,325 --> 00:01:17,411
All of that is good because
all of that tells them

24
00:01:17,495 --> 00:01:19,163
there is nothing good to hear.

25
00:01:19,247 --> 00:01:22,875
But, for business,

26
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,586
do not talk on the phone.

27
00:01:25,670 --> 00:01:27,838
- Never.
- Right.

28
00:01:27,922 --> 00:01:29,590
I mean, Joe taught me that.

29
00:01:29,674 --> 00:01:32,969
But what about... what is...

30
00:01:40,893 --> 00:01:41,978
Huh.

31
00:01:45,523 --> 00:01:48,609
- How'd that play?
- Man overcame his grief.

32
00:01:48,693 --> 00:01:50,278
(Laughs)

33
00:01:50,361 --> 00:01:53,281
Do it feel like a crown
on your head right now?

34
00:01:53,364 --> 00:01:55,324
Do it?

35
00:01:55,408 --> 00:01:58,327
'Cause that's what I'm wearin' on my head.

36
00:01:58,411 --> 00:02:00,246
We should celebrate.

37
00:02:00,329 --> 00:02:01,497
Yeah?

38
00:02:01,580 --> 00:02:03,582
Atlantic city.

39
00:02:03,666 --> 00:02:05,293
Can't play like that now.

40
00:02:05,376 --> 00:02:08,129
Omar gonna make a move. You know this.

41
00:02:08,212 --> 00:02:10,339
Mm-hmm.

42
00:02:10,423 --> 00:02:12,800
Yo, I need to go past
home. You mind a ride?

43
00:02:12,883 --> 00:02:14,468
You know I like your peoples.

44
00:02:14,552 --> 00:02:18,097
Fact is, I gotta tell 'em
I'm not gonna be comin' round for a time.

45
00:02:18,180 --> 00:02:20,266
You stepped up and made your play.

46
00:02:20,349 --> 00:02:22,226
Now I gotta make mine.

47
00:02:24,562 --> 00:02:27,857
When you walk through the garden

48
00:02:29,025 --> 00:02:30,901
gotta watch your back

49
00:02:33,321 --> 00:02:35,573
well, I beg your pardon

50
00:02:37,074 --> 00:02:39,744
walk the straight and narrow track

51
00:02:41,829 --> 00:02:43,414
if you walk with Jesus

52
00:02:46,208 --> 00:02:48,627
he's gonna save your soul

53
00:02:51,297 --> 00:02:57,261
you gotta keep the devil way down in a hole

54
00:03:08,064 --> 00:03:10,232
He's got the fire and the fury

55
00:03:13,110 --> 00:03:14,737
at his command

56
00:03:17,114 --> 00:03:19,200
well, you don't have to worry

57
00:03:21,202 --> 00:03:24,121
if you hold on to Jesus' hand

58
00:03:25,623 --> 00:03:27,625
and we'll all be safe from Satan

59
00:03:30,086 --> 00:03:32,213
when the thunder rolls

60
00:03:34,632 --> 00:03:37,301
but you gotta help me keep the devil

61
00:03:38,928 --> 00:03:40,638
way down in the hole

62
00:03:41,430 --> 00:03:43,557
in the bottom of the hole

63
00:03:45,351 --> 00:03:47,144
in the hole in the hole

64
00:03:47,770 --> 00:03:49,605
way down in the hole

65
00:03:50,064 --> 00:03:52,233
in the hole in the hole

66
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,195
in the hole in the hole

67
00:03:56,362 --> 00:03:57,905
way down in the hole

68
00:04:04,161 --> 00:04:06,497
- At least four.
- (Alma) Got it.

69
00:04:06,580 --> 00:04:09,917
We're going back through old cases,
so we could find more than that.

70
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,920
- What else?
- And the motive now seems sexual.

71
00:04:13,003 --> 00:04:15,214
What do you mean, sexual?

72
00:04:15,297 --> 00:04:18,050
Is someone sodomizing homeless men?

73
00:04:18,134 --> 00:04:19,802
You can't get that specific.

74
00:04:19,885 --> 00:04:21,429
How can I not get specific?

75
00:04:21,512 --> 00:04:24,974
Just say the killer
is acting from sexual compulsions.

76
00:04:25,057 --> 00:04:27,977
Anything more detailed than that
we need to keep in the case file.

77
00:04:28,060 --> 00:04:31,605
I don't know, detective.
Last time, I couldn't get it out front.

78
00:04:31,689 --> 00:04:33,941
Let me run it by my desk and call you back.
All right?

79
00:04:34,024 --> 00:04:35,443
All right.

80
00:04:37,111 --> 00:04:38,946
Anything late from cop shop?

81
00:04:39,029 --> 00:04:41,907
Follow-ups on the recent murders.

82
00:04:41,991 --> 00:04:45,286
An arrest on one, which was
the domestic cutting from hampden.

83
00:04:45,369 --> 00:04:48,164
No arrests in a couple
of drug-relateds from east Baltimore.

84
00:04:48,247 --> 00:04:49,957
Ok, give me a bit for the budget line.

85
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,751
Domestic was a Patricia boggus,
found in her car.

86
00:04:52,835 --> 00:04:56,255
Drug-relateds were one Joseph Stewart,
found in his dining room,

87
00:04:56,338 --> 00:04:58,924
and one Nathaniel manns,
found in an alley garage.

88
00:04:59,717 --> 00:05:03,846
A couple 'graphs on each.
Write it as a single short.

89
00:05:03,929 --> 00:05:06,474
Also, I got word on
another homeless murder.

90
00:05:06,557 --> 00:05:10,352
The detective on it says it's related.
He says it's sexual.

91
00:05:11,562 --> 00:05:13,272
Sexual?

92
00:05:13,355 --> 00:05:15,357
- They being raped?
- He wouldn't confirm that.

93
00:05:15,441 --> 00:05:18,861
He just says that the killings
are sexual in nature.

94
00:05:19,487 --> 00:05:21,280
Write what you got.

95
00:05:21,363 --> 00:05:24,742
- I'll run it by the four o'clock, see if it takes.
- Ok.

96
00:05:27,745 --> 00:05:30,831
This indictment is the result
of an 18-month investigation

97
00:05:30,915 --> 00:05:35,044
by the state's attorney's office
and the Baltimore police department.

98
00:05:35,127 --> 00:05:37,588
And it shines a light
on a cornerstone issue

99
00:05:37,671 --> 00:05:43,469
for any representative government -
public trust of public servants.

100
00:05:43,552 --> 00:05:46,263
Senator Davis abused that trust.

101
00:05:47,097 --> 00:05:49,225
He traded on his power and influence

102
00:05:49,308 --> 00:05:52,895
so that he could use local businesses
and campaign donors

103
00:05:52,978 --> 00:05:55,397
as his personal atm machine.

104
00:05:55,481 --> 00:06:00,110
He created a network of charitable
and nonprofit organizations

105
00:06:00,194 --> 00:06:04,532
whose purpose was to accumulate cash
for his private use, betraying...

106
00:06:04,615 --> 00:06:06,534
Rhonda Pearlman?

107
00:06:06,617 --> 00:06:08,577
Bill zorzi, covering
federal court for the sun.

108
00:06:08,661 --> 00:06:09,954
Right. How do you do?

109
00:06:10,037 --> 00:06:12,289
Not to be all petulant
on your special day here,

110
00:06:12,373 --> 00:06:14,708
but since when does a
prosecutor in this town

111
00:06:14,792 --> 00:06:17,461
stage a perp walk
and not call the daily newspaper?

112
00:06:18,087 --> 00:06:20,714
We called Gail Gibson.
Left a message on her voicemail.

113
00:06:20,798 --> 00:06:23,092
Gail left for a freelance
gig four months ago.

114
00:06:24,301 --> 00:06:28,264
Well, her voicemail still works.
Who's replacing her on city courts?

115
00:06:29,431 --> 00:06:30,641
From now on...

116
00:06:32,851 --> 00:06:34,645
Just don'tjam me up like that again.

117
00:06:35,354 --> 00:06:39,400
(Bond) ...He must be held accountable
for his fraudulent actions.

118
00:06:39,483 --> 00:06:45,406
Senator Davis has opened our
legislative body to monetary persuasions.

119
00:06:45,489 --> 00:06:47,116
He has done this knowingly

120
00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:51,996
and with complete disregard
for the office that he represents.

121
00:06:52,580 --> 00:06:55,165
- It is this kind of impropriety...
- How's it feel, Clay?

122
00:06:55,249 --> 00:06:58,127
Not much fun on the ass end, is it?

123
00:06:58,210 --> 00:06:59,920
You said it, Norman.

124
00:07:00,004 --> 00:07:03,090
There's the short con and the long con.

125
00:07:04,091 --> 00:07:07,177
You're gonna need a statement.
Nothing too joyful.

126
00:07:07,261 --> 00:07:11,098
You don't dance on Clay's grave until
you're sure the motherfucker's dead.

127
00:07:11,181 --> 00:07:13,517
Clay ain't getting up from this.

128
00:07:13,601 --> 00:07:17,229
Also, you don't want to piss off his base,
being too gleeful about it.

129
00:07:17,313 --> 00:07:21,442
That guy still has a base?
After all the shit he's pulled?

130
00:07:23,777 --> 00:07:28,365
I'll tell you one thing - that fella right
there is looking pretty damn mayoral.

131
00:07:28,449 --> 00:07:30,701
(Wilson) More than nerese, definitely.

132
00:07:31,368 --> 00:07:36,123
With the profile he gets from this,
I'd say it's Mr. Bond's race to lose.

133
00:07:36,206 --> 00:07:37,806
(Bond) ...And remain under common court.

134
00:07:38,667 --> 00:07:42,713
Senator Davis will have
to account for that money.

135
00:07:58,562 --> 00:08:01,023
- What'd you tell your girl?
- I'm going away on business.

136
00:08:01,106 --> 00:08:02,858
I won't be around for a couple weeks.

137
00:08:03,651 --> 00:08:06,570
- Shouldn't be more than that.
- Better not.

138
00:08:06,654 --> 00:08:08,822
Miss trainor say
we gonna learn a problem like that

139
00:08:08,906 --> 00:08:12,242
- every day for this year and the next.
- You mean memorize 'em?

140
00:08:12,326 --> 00:08:14,495
Yeah. Learn it by heart.
Learn the question.

141
00:08:14,578 --> 00:08:16,246
Learn the answer, too.

142
00:08:16,330 --> 00:08:20,167
'Cause them questions gonna be on
the msa test next year. She tell you that?

143
00:08:20,250 --> 00:08:23,754
Miss trainor say if the scores
don't go up before the selection

144
00:08:23,837 --> 00:08:25,756
all the teachers gonna get fired.

145
00:08:25,839 --> 00:08:27,758
Selection? What she mean?

146
00:08:27,841 --> 00:08:30,094
When the people vote for whoever.

147
00:08:30,177 --> 00:08:32,179
You mean an election?

148
00:08:32,262 --> 00:08:34,306
Nigger think you all that.

149
00:08:43,774 --> 00:08:45,567
Now, why you gonna go and do that?

150
00:08:45,651 --> 00:08:47,653
- Dukie about to cry.
- Fuck is wrong with you?

151
00:08:47,736 --> 00:08:50,114
Nothin' wrong with me!
I'm gettin' stuff done.

152
00:08:50,197 --> 00:08:52,866
You up in some house somewhere
playin' like a lil' bitch.

153
00:08:56,870 --> 00:09:00,624
- Smack his faggoty little ass.
- Get that little jog-ass!

154
00:09:06,672 --> 00:09:09,842
Finally, we've got that 40-inch
thumbsucker on bud selig

155
00:09:09,925 --> 00:09:12,094
and baseball's half-hearted response

156
00:09:12,177 --> 00:09:14,638
to the latest recommendations
on steroid use.

157
00:09:14,722 --> 00:09:18,100
The owners think bud is swell,
the players' union is staying mum,

158
00:09:18,183 --> 00:09:21,228
bonds has a home-run record and everyone's
pretending the issue will go away.

159
00:09:21,311 --> 00:09:25,733
- And there's news in there?
- What do you like for the front?

160
00:09:25,816 --> 00:09:28,694
The Clay Davis indictment, obviously.
Congressional hearings on Iraq.

161
00:09:28,777 --> 00:09:31,864
Price's piece on how much carcetti raised
for his gubernatorial run is solid.

162
00:09:31,947 --> 00:09:34,408
The feature on John waters
filming again in Baltimore

163
00:09:34,491 --> 00:09:35,969
could go out front if the art is good.

164
00:09:35,993 --> 00:09:38,704
We have him posing
with a couple of child actors.

165
00:09:38,787 --> 00:09:40,622
- Is that allowed?
- (Laughter)

166
00:09:40,706 --> 00:09:43,083
Now, now, let's not confuse
the auteur with his art.

167
00:09:43,167 --> 00:09:45,377
- Anyone like anything else?
- This came in late,

168
00:09:45,461 --> 00:09:48,839
this business about another
homeless man being murdered,

169
00:09:48,922 --> 00:09:51,842
- that might have some play.
- Other homeless men were murdered?

170
00:09:51,925 --> 00:09:53,719
We ran a short piece a week ago

171
00:09:53,802 --> 00:09:56,180
about possible connections in three cases.

172
00:09:56,263 --> 00:09:57,264
Inside Metro.

173
00:09:57,347 --> 00:09:58,849
The motive's said to be sexual,

174
00:09:58,932 --> 00:10:02,394
but the cops are being cryptic
about what exactly that means.

175
00:10:02,478 --> 00:10:04,313
Well, we could run it inside,

176
00:10:04,396 --> 00:10:06,774
but report it some more, see where it goes.

177
00:10:06,857 --> 00:10:08,417
Right now, it's a little vague for a-1.

178
00:10:08,525 --> 00:10:11,111
Ok, then, we'll see where
we are in a couple hours.

179
00:10:12,863 --> 00:10:14,948
I told you, Duke.

180
00:10:15,032 --> 00:10:17,159
I fuck 'em up good. Just say the word, man.

181
00:10:17,242 --> 00:10:20,704
Nah, man, I can't have you
steppin' up for me anymore, you know.

182
00:10:22,039 --> 00:10:25,292
Yeah, well. Talk to the man.

183
00:10:25,375 --> 00:10:27,377
He'll set you straight.

184
00:10:30,964 --> 00:10:33,217
- Yo, Mr. Dennis.
- Eh?

185
00:10:36,178 --> 00:10:38,347
I need to train with you some.

186
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:42,893
See that.

187
00:10:42,976 --> 00:10:45,229
What happened?

188
00:10:45,312 --> 00:10:48,190
It ain't no thing. I'm gettin'
a little tired of it, that's all.

189
00:10:48,273 --> 00:10:49,608
A'ight, son.

190
00:10:49,691 --> 00:10:51,777
Get some gloves on
and let's see where you at.

191
00:10:53,695 --> 00:10:55,739
It's all pretty straightfonivard.

192
00:10:55,823 --> 00:10:58,992
I'm surprised your lawyers went
to the trouble of getting it postponed.

193
00:10:59,076 --> 00:11:00,994
Maybe 'cause we was payin' by the hour.

194
00:11:01,078 --> 00:11:02,246
(Laughs)

195
00:11:03,247 --> 00:11:05,707
In any event, you got
a lot going for you here.

196
00:11:05,791 --> 00:11:08,502
Car registered to a front,
guns in a secreted compartment.

197
00:11:08,585 --> 00:11:11,296
The woman we registered it to,
she can't do no time.

198
00:11:11,380 --> 00:11:12,589
Just a name we used.

199
00:11:13,298 --> 00:11:16,718
Then get someone who can.
Preferably someone without priors,

200
00:11:16,802 --> 00:11:18,762
someone you trust to stand the charge.

201
00:11:24,268 --> 00:11:26,728
Also came past with this here.

202
00:11:28,856 --> 00:11:30,274
More money made clean.

203
00:11:33,235 --> 00:11:35,863
When you figure out
what to do with that, holler at me.

204
00:11:35,946 --> 00:11:37,823
How do I do that?

205
00:11:38,699 --> 00:11:39,700
Hmm.

206
00:11:41,410 --> 00:11:46,331
410-915-0909.

207
00:11:48,292 --> 00:11:49,626
Anything else?

208
00:11:49,710 --> 00:11:52,129
Nah, take me off your clock.

209
00:12:04,308 --> 00:12:06,310
(Door closes)

210
00:12:07,060 --> 00:12:09,438
Fuckin' mope pisses me off.

211
00:12:09,521 --> 00:12:11,481
Be generous.

212
00:12:11,565 --> 00:12:14,109
I have a feeling this firm is
going to have quite a payday

213
00:12:14,192 --> 00:12:16,737
from Mr. Stanfield and his people.

214
00:12:16,820 --> 00:12:18,488
He just gave me his phone number.

215
00:12:18,572 --> 00:12:22,367
If marlo Stanfield is using a cellphone,
it's just a matter of time

216
00:12:22,451 --> 00:12:25,746
before we're up
to our asses in pre-trial motions...

217
00:12:26,788 --> 00:12:28,415
Litigating a wiretap case.

218
00:12:30,959 --> 00:12:32,753
Joe gave him to usjust in time.

219
00:12:33,086 --> 00:12:34,671
(Man) Work it back!

220
00:12:37,215 --> 00:12:39,593
Keep your hands up. Like that.

221
00:12:40,302 --> 00:12:42,596
Right. Left. Right. Right.

222
00:12:53,857 --> 00:12:54,858
(Rings)

223
00:12:58,779 --> 00:12:59,780
What now?

224
00:13:01,448 --> 00:13:03,533
You need to attribute that?

225
00:13:04,701 --> 00:13:08,455
- What?
- Fifth 'graph, the dependent clause.

226
00:13:08,538 --> 00:13:11,500
The one about a "pattern
of widespread influence-peddling

227
00:13:11,583 --> 00:13:13,168
"over a period of years."

228
00:13:13,251 --> 00:13:15,379
Either the indictment
shows it or it doesn't.

229
00:13:15,462 --> 00:13:18,674
Besides which, you begin three 'graphs
in a row with a gerund. Look.

230
00:13:18,757 --> 00:13:21,843
How do you expect me to write
with your fucking fingers in my eyes?

231
00:13:21,927 --> 00:13:24,554
At least let me turn my copy in
before you stomp on it.

232
00:13:25,514 --> 00:13:26,974
(Scott) Attaboy, zorz.

233
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:36,233
They want more reporting on this,
but I don't see where it can go from here.

234
00:13:36,316 --> 00:13:38,026
The cops are selling a sexual motive

235
00:13:38,110 --> 00:13:41,488
but they won't explain
it any more than that.

236
00:13:41,571 --> 00:13:43,240
Who are you dealing with?

237
00:13:43,323 --> 00:13:45,367
Detective who has the case.

238
00:13:46,576 --> 00:13:48,495
And he wants publicity?

239
00:13:48,578 --> 00:13:50,580
(Country ballad playing)

240
00:13:57,546 --> 00:14:01,091
Didn't know if you'd come back.

241
00:14:01,174 --> 00:14:03,301
Took a lot of money with you.

242
00:14:03,385 --> 00:14:06,179
It wasn't about the money, bro.

243
00:14:06,263 --> 00:14:08,515
Wasn't never about that.

244
00:14:11,601 --> 00:14:13,770
Is that him?

245
00:14:15,313 --> 00:14:17,858
Old monk prefer the condo life, I see.

246
00:14:17,941 --> 00:14:19,693
Too good for a row house.

247
00:14:19,776 --> 00:14:21,653
Movin' with muscle, too.

248
00:14:21,737 --> 00:14:24,698
Most likely they expectin'
you to make a move.

249
00:14:24,781 --> 00:14:26,116
An' here I am.

250
00:14:27,826 --> 00:14:29,411
How 'bout that?

251
00:14:33,457 --> 00:14:35,208
Thanks for meeting me again.

252
00:14:35,292 --> 00:14:38,086
This is Scott Templeton.
He'll be working the story with me.

253
00:14:40,630 --> 00:14:42,883
I don't want everyone
at your newspaper knowing my name.

254
00:14:43,633 --> 00:14:47,345
Look, you want these homeless cases
to get attention, right?

255
00:14:47,429 --> 00:14:48,889
That's what you're trying to do.

256
00:14:48,972 --> 00:14:51,391
Guy's a predator. People need to know.

257
00:14:51,475 --> 00:14:54,186
Agreed. And there are things
you need to keep secret

258
00:14:54,269 --> 00:14:56,563
so that you can solve
the murders, I get that.

259
00:14:56,646 --> 00:14:59,566
We can't do much with this story
unless we give it enough juice.

260
00:14:59,649 --> 00:15:00,817
Juice?

261
00:15:00,901 --> 00:15:04,613
We need to tell people what this is about,
why he's doing it.

262
00:15:04,696 --> 00:15:07,199
We need to make this thing
come alive on the page

263
00:15:07,282 --> 00:15:09,076
or they're gonna Bury the story again.

264
00:15:09,159 --> 00:15:12,829
I told you, it's sexual.
Compulsion. Obsession, that kinda thing.

265
00:15:12,913 --> 00:15:14,456
But what the fuck does that mean?

266
00:15:14,539 --> 00:15:19,211
It's not like he's carving up housewives
or strangling coeds, here.

267
00:15:19,294 --> 00:15:21,755
Your guy's killing homeless men.

268
00:15:21,838 --> 00:15:23,840
Why, exactly? What's in his head?

269
00:15:23,924 --> 00:15:26,134
Is he raping them? Sodomizing them?

270
00:15:26,218 --> 00:15:29,096
I don't have any semen in any of the cases.

271
00:15:29,179 --> 00:15:30,639
But he's doing something, right?

272
00:15:31,306 --> 00:15:34,059
He ties a red ribbon around their arms.

273
00:15:34,142 --> 00:15:36,853
- A red ribbon?
- Yeah, a bow.

274
00:15:36,937 --> 00:15:39,856
He giftwraps the motherfuckers.
That enough juice for you?

275
00:15:39,940 --> 00:15:44,111
Yeah, kinky, but no one kills people
to tie ribbons around their arms.

276
00:15:44,194 --> 00:15:46,530
Can we say they were molested?

277
00:15:46,613 --> 00:15:48,657
Is it fair to say that?

278
00:15:49,908 --> 00:15:53,245
- We'll go with molested, then.
- You didn't get that from me.

279
00:15:54,371 --> 00:15:55,811
- Another round?
- (Scott) What else?

280
00:15:55,872 --> 00:15:58,500
You want this story to fly,
give us something different.

281
00:15:58,583 --> 00:16:01,044
Keep what you need,
but give us something with a twist.

282
00:16:01,128 --> 00:16:02,796
A sexual serial killer isn't enough?

283
00:16:03,713 --> 00:16:05,715
It's a cold world, I know.

284
00:16:13,723 --> 00:16:15,809
- He's started biting them.
- What?

285
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,687
He's biting his victims.

286
00:16:18,770 --> 00:16:22,232
Inside thigh, right ass cheek, left nipple.

287
00:16:23,108 --> 00:16:25,777
- He's a biter.
- Oh. Shit.

288
00:16:25,861 --> 00:16:28,655
Yeah. That twisted enough for ya?

289
00:16:28,738 --> 00:16:30,991
Are we talkin' cannibalism here?

290
00:16:31,074 --> 00:16:33,201
Just biting for now.

291
00:16:33,285 --> 00:16:34,703
We'll see where it goes.

292
00:16:34,786 --> 00:16:36,496
And did he bite all of them?

293
00:16:36,580 --> 00:16:37,998
Not all.

294
00:16:38,081 --> 00:16:39,916
Just the latest ones.

295
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,168
He's maturing.

296
00:16:41,251 --> 00:16:43,170
- Maturing?
- Yeah, it's a technical term.

297
00:16:43,253 --> 00:16:46,965
It's when a serial killer's
becoming more obsessive.

298
00:16:47,048 --> 00:16:50,844
He starts to develop an intricate pattern
in what he does with the bodies.

299
00:16:50,927 --> 00:16:52,012
It's weird stuff.

300
00:16:53,513 --> 00:16:56,933
- A biter. That's great.
- My name is nowhere on this.

301
00:16:58,101 --> 00:16:59,102
For your tab.

302
00:16:59,895 --> 00:17:02,689
We'd stay and have one,
but we can still make the second edition.

303
00:17:02,772 --> 00:17:03,773
Thanks.

304
00:17:30,550 --> 00:17:33,303
So you thinkin' if you learn to fight some,

305
00:17:33,386 --> 00:17:36,139
people 'round the way gonna leave you be.

306
00:17:37,349 --> 00:17:41,394
Thing is, even if you learn to fight,

307
00:17:41,478 --> 00:17:43,939
people gonna come at you just the same.

308
00:17:44,356 --> 00:17:47,234
It ain't like the movies
where you beat up one bully

309
00:17:47,317 --> 00:17:50,111
and the restjust back the hell up.

310
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,408
Let me ask, why you think
they even bothering

311
00:17:55,492 --> 00:17:57,118
to come at you the way they do?

312
00:17:57,202 --> 00:17:59,454
I mean, why you?

313
00:18:01,122 --> 00:18:03,333
See, all I know...

314
00:18:05,126 --> 00:18:06,878
Is that right there.

315
00:18:07,545 --> 00:18:10,048
I ain't never had no use for other things.

316
00:18:11,508 --> 00:18:13,134
I could fight.

317
00:18:14,094 --> 00:18:17,681
For a time there, I could run them corners.

318
00:18:19,015 --> 00:18:22,852
Not much life outside that, really.

319
00:18:24,980 --> 00:18:27,941
- I was on the corner for a while.
- How that go?

320
00:18:29,442 --> 00:18:31,569
Yeah, well...

321
00:18:34,030 --> 00:18:37,117
I guess what I'm tryin' to say is...

322
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,496
Not everything come down
to how you carry it in the street.

323
00:18:42,330 --> 00:18:46,167
I mean, it do come down to that
if you gonna be in the street.

324
00:18:47,794 --> 00:18:50,213
But that ain't the only way to be.

325
00:18:51,548 --> 00:18:52,549
Round here it is.

326
00:18:53,049 --> 00:18:54,801
Yeah.

327
00:18:54,884 --> 00:18:56,511
Round here it is.

328
00:18:58,847 --> 00:19:00,682
World is bigger than that,

329
00:19:00,765 --> 00:19:02,976
at least, that's what they tell me.

330
00:19:06,896 --> 00:19:10,400
Like... how do you get from here
to the rest of the world?

331
00:19:13,028 --> 00:19:14,529
I wish I knew.

332
00:19:22,829 --> 00:19:24,581
Michael grew up fast.

333
00:19:24,664 --> 00:19:26,750
Yeah, he did.

334
00:19:27,834 --> 00:19:33,673
Anyway, for a kid like that,
my onliest plan might be fine, you know?

335
00:19:33,757 --> 00:19:36,343
Might could work for a boy like that.

336
00:19:37,260 --> 00:19:41,681
But a kid come to me with other skills,

337
00:19:41,765 --> 00:19:43,391
other way of being,

338
00:19:44,017 --> 00:19:46,227
all I got is hope and wishes.

339
00:19:48,021 --> 00:19:50,440
That's something, I guess.

340
00:19:50,523 --> 00:19:52,359
Wish it was more, son.

341
00:19:53,318 --> 00:19:54,444
I do.

342
00:20:02,369 --> 00:20:03,620
Thanks.

343
00:20:09,459 --> 00:20:10,710
Attagirl.

344
00:20:15,632 --> 00:20:19,052
Alma, you've got the investigation.
Anything from headquarters, that's you.

345
00:20:19,135 --> 00:20:22,639
I thought I'd work back on the victims.
A profile of who these guys were.

346
00:20:22,722 --> 00:20:26,810
That's a nice idea, but I already
sent Fletcher out on that an hour ago.

347
00:20:26,893 --> 00:20:31,106
- What's left for me to do?
- You can go and, er... talk to the homeless.

348
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,234
React quotes from the homeless?

349
00:20:34,317 --> 00:20:38,405
Just 'cause they're in the streets
doesn't mean that they lack opinions.

350
00:20:38,488 --> 00:20:40,490
Where am I gonna find homeless people?

351
00:20:41,366 --> 00:20:43,243
Not at home, I imagine.

352
00:20:43,326 --> 00:20:45,453
Go, go, my children.

353
00:20:50,458 --> 00:20:52,252
Read it and weep.

354
00:20:53,253 --> 00:20:55,588
I already did.

355
00:20:55,672 --> 00:20:57,424
So did the major.

356
00:20:57,507 --> 00:20:58,925
So did the colonel.

357
00:20:59,008 --> 00:21:01,177
So did our newly christened deputy ops.

358
00:21:01,261 --> 00:21:04,431
- Deputy's over at city hall right now.
- That was quick.

359
00:21:05,723 --> 00:21:08,435
Just 'cause you got some fuckin' reporter
to buy your weak shit

360
00:21:08,518 --> 00:21:10,186
does not mean everyone else buys it.

361
00:21:13,731 --> 00:21:16,401
Five gets you ten,
deputy's over there right now,

362
00:21:16,484 --> 00:21:18,611
talking them back down to earth.

363
00:21:18,945 --> 00:21:21,072
Is this nut raping them?

364
00:21:21,156 --> 00:21:23,575
I haven't debriefed the
investigators in detail,

365
00:21:23,658 --> 00:21:26,828
but the office reports don't indicate
penetration or ejaculation.

366
00:21:26,911 --> 00:21:28,705
What can we say we're doing already?

367
00:21:28,788 --> 00:21:30,623
We've got good people working it.

368
00:21:30,707 --> 00:21:34,294
- It would be better if I could keep them on it.
- You're talking overtime.

369
00:21:34,377 --> 00:21:37,088
If you could lift the cap
for this investigation...

370
00:21:37,172 --> 00:21:40,133
Done. Unlimited
overtime for two detectives.

371
00:21:40,216 --> 00:21:41,216
Anything they need.

372
00:21:41,259 --> 00:21:44,721
Sir, a case like this, proactively
trying to prevent additional murders,

373
00:21:44,804 --> 00:21:46,389
requires more than two detectives.

374
00:21:46,473 --> 00:21:48,141
Deputy, the school board chairman

375
00:21:48,224 --> 00:21:52,312
is a short hair away from
laying off 50 middle-school teachers

376
00:21:52,395 --> 00:21:55,023
and shutting down special education
in every elementary school

377
00:21:55,106 --> 00:21:58,234
in violation of a federal consent decree.

378
00:21:58,318 --> 00:22:01,321
If I've got more than an extra
couple of dollars, you aren't getting it.

379
00:22:01,404 --> 00:22:05,575
Embracing the hard choice.
It's one of the burdens of command.

380
00:22:05,658 --> 00:22:08,912
Is there anything you can do
to further protect the homeless?

381
00:22:08,995 --> 00:22:11,664
We can have patrol
units spread the warning,

382
00:22:11,748 --> 00:22:14,918
try to convince anyone on the street
to move into the city shelters after dark.

383
00:22:15,001 --> 00:22:18,630
Can't you have police sit on locations
where the homeless gather?

384
00:22:18,713 --> 00:22:20,131
And still answer the calls?

385
00:22:20,215 --> 00:22:23,009
Not without doubling up post units,
which means overtime.

386
00:22:23,092 --> 00:22:24,427
Overtime, again.

387
00:22:24,511 --> 00:22:26,012
Blood in our veins, Mr. Mayor.

388
00:22:38,274 --> 00:22:40,944
Every day you look more like a boss.

389
00:22:41,027 --> 00:22:43,863
- Fuck you.
- I didn't mean it like a bad thing.

390
00:22:43,947 --> 00:22:45,949
- Yeah, you did.
- Yeah, I did.

391
00:22:48,326 --> 00:22:50,662
- What's that?
- A gift from your one true partner.

392
00:22:50,745 --> 00:22:53,206
- Cellphone number, marlo Stanfield.
- How the fuck...

393
00:22:53,289 --> 00:22:57,126
Don't ask, don't tell.
Like those guys sucking dick in the army.

394
00:22:57,961 --> 00:23:01,965
Whatever else I ever did to piss you off,
remember I also did this.

395
00:23:03,049 --> 00:23:05,969
And, carv?
When you put the bracelets on that bitch,

396
00:23:06,052 --> 00:23:08,638
remind him again of my fuckin' camera.

397
00:23:10,306 --> 00:23:12,892
You can tell all of 'em
- Royce, the caucus,

398
00:23:12,976 --> 00:23:15,895
all them graspin' bitches
who we put in every city department -

399
00:23:15,979 --> 00:23:19,899
you tell every last one
that I do not fall alone.

400
00:23:19,983 --> 00:23:20,983
Clay!

401
00:23:21,025 --> 00:23:25,780
You think I'm gonna be the scapegoat
for the whole damn machine? Shit.

402
00:23:25,863 --> 00:23:29,450
Clarence is going to stand with you.
He told me so. He'll be out there.

403
00:23:29,534 --> 00:23:32,370
Easy for him.
He ain't runnin' for nothin' no more.

404
00:23:32,453 --> 00:23:34,664
I don't see you and
your kind with me on this.

405
00:23:34,747 --> 00:23:37,292
A whole mess o' people
think they belong on the fence.

406
00:23:37,375 --> 00:23:39,586
- Clay, it is what it is.
- Y'all better hope not.

407
00:23:39,669 --> 00:23:41,546
Or it ain't gonna end with Clay Davis.

408
00:23:41,629 --> 00:23:43,756
Just think about what you're saying here.

409
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,760
You can have yourself a pity party,
talk all kinda shit to some prosecutor.

410
00:23:47,844 --> 00:23:50,805
You know where you'll be then?
Out in the damn cold.

411
00:23:50,888 --> 00:23:53,474
No connections, no allies,

412
00:23:53,558 --> 00:23:56,728
nowhere to hang your hat in this damn town.

413
00:23:56,811 --> 00:24:01,441
Or you carry this for all of us,
carry it as far as you can.

414
00:24:01,524 --> 00:24:04,319
And if the worst happens,
if they take your seat,

415
00:24:04,402 --> 00:24:05,504
if you go away for a year or so

416
00:24:05,528 --> 00:24:08,406
to some minimum-security summer camp,
then so what?

417
00:24:08,489 --> 00:24:12,285
You come home to a town
that still knows your name.

418
00:24:15,204 --> 00:24:16,289
Look at burrell.

419
00:24:16,372 --> 00:24:19,292
He goes quietly
and now he's making 12 a year more

420
00:24:19,375 --> 00:24:23,087
than when he was commissioner,
and working half the hours.

421
00:24:23,171 --> 00:24:25,882
You think that happens
if he does the piss-and-moan?

422
00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:30,386
Prosecutors come and prosecutors go.

423
00:24:32,055 --> 00:24:36,267
But win or lose, you're still gonna be
back around before we know it.

424
00:24:37,894 --> 00:24:39,896
Am I right, senator Davis?

425
00:24:46,194 --> 00:24:48,071
Mm-hmm.

426
00:24:48,154 --> 00:24:50,156
You want me to find another carry-out?

427
00:24:50,239 --> 00:24:52,825
- Some place closer?
- You don't like this food?

428
00:24:52,909 --> 00:24:55,745
I don't like the way them chinky
motherfuckers be acting sometimes.

429
00:24:55,828 --> 00:24:57,664
The way they be lookin' at me.

430
00:24:57,747 --> 00:24:59,749
Don't worry about it.

431
00:25:05,630 --> 00:25:06,923
Chris with you?

432
00:25:08,049 --> 00:25:09,384
Behind me.

433
00:25:11,928 --> 00:25:13,930
- What you got on?
- What?

434
00:25:17,433 --> 00:25:19,435
You want that faggot to know
we waitin' on his ass?

435
00:25:19,519 --> 00:25:21,020
Just bein' careful is all.

436
00:25:21,104 --> 00:25:24,190
If I can see the vest,
you don't think that he could see the vest?

437
00:25:24,273 --> 00:25:27,652
I'm the one that's baitin' him.
I'm the only one not hidin' out.

438
00:25:27,735 --> 00:25:28,861
Ain't no thing.

439
00:25:28,945 --> 00:25:33,324
'Cause when Omar come at you,
he gon' be gunnin' at your head.

440
00:25:33,408 --> 00:25:34,867
I know I would be.

441
00:25:36,577 --> 00:25:40,123
Stayed outside of monk's all night.
They left before morning, though.

442
00:25:40,206 --> 00:25:42,875
They'll be back. No doubt.

443
00:25:42,959 --> 00:25:45,962
Do you hear a lot of concern
regarding these murders?

444
00:25:46,045 --> 00:25:48,798
- I haven't heard anybody mention it.
- No?

445
00:25:48,881 --> 00:25:52,385
Most of the folks we serve
aren't actually homeless.

446
00:25:52,468 --> 00:25:54,804
Most are working poor.

447
00:25:55,263 --> 00:25:57,598
So most of the people
I interviewed here weren't...

448
00:25:57,682 --> 00:26:00,351
Homeless? No. Some, maybe.

449
00:26:01,561 --> 00:26:04,564
- Why didn't you...
- You seemed to be getting along ok.

450
00:26:04,647 --> 00:26:08,401
- I didn't want to ruin it for you.
- Where would you suggest I go?

451
00:26:09,485 --> 00:26:10,987
Streets, maybe.

452
00:26:18,995 --> 00:26:22,832
The reporter the sun paper sent over,
not exactly Bob woodward.

453
00:26:25,835 --> 00:26:27,837
Hell of a job, bubs.

454
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,633
But we need help tomorrow
waiting tables in the back room.

455
00:26:33,801 --> 00:26:35,803
If you don't like it,

456
00:26:35,887 --> 00:26:37,680
then I won't ask again.

457
00:26:44,395 --> 00:26:46,647
Gotta hold it with both hands, you know?

458
00:26:46,731 --> 00:26:49,108
Tryin' to hit what you aimin' at, a'ight?

459
00:26:49,192 --> 00:26:51,486
It's not like they do in the movies,
it's not gonna work.

460
00:26:51,569 --> 00:26:54,363
A'ight, so, come on, spread your legs.

461
00:27:03,372 --> 00:27:05,625
What's the first thing you gotta do?

462
00:27:05,708 --> 00:27:08,753
Jack a round in the
chamber. Like this, watch.

463
00:27:09,587 --> 00:27:10,880
Go ahead.

464
00:27:17,595 --> 00:27:19,222
It's hard to do.

465
00:27:20,139 --> 00:27:21,641
A'ight.

466
00:27:21,724 --> 00:27:23,518
So then...

467
00:27:23,601 --> 00:27:25,144
Try this.

468
00:27:26,229 --> 00:27:29,690
It's a tool, just like a monkey wrench,
that's all it is, a'ight?

469
00:27:39,867 --> 00:27:43,663
- I didn't know it was gon' be so loud.
- Why you want to do this?

470
00:27:43,746 --> 00:27:45,998
What is you thinkin', Duke?

471
00:27:46,082 --> 00:27:49,335
You think if you start carryin'
ain't nobody gonna try you?

472
00:27:49,418 --> 00:27:52,338
Nah. Somebody's always gonna try you.

473
00:27:52,421 --> 00:27:55,967
An' if they know that you carryin'
they gonna make you come out with it.

474
00:27:56,050 --> 00:27:58,730
An' once you come out with it,
you gotta be ready to go all the way.

475
00:28:00,763 --> 00:28:03,641
You can't bring it out
unless you willin' to use it.

476
00:28:04,517 --> 00:28:06,143
Can't be no doubt.

477
00:28:09,397 --> 00:28:14,569
Man, can't shoot, can't fight.
Can't even stand on the damn corner.

478
00:28:14,652 --> 00:28:18,447
You got other skills,
man. You smart like that.

479
00:28:18,531 --> 00:28:22,368
(Mcnulty) I don't know, bunk. You can't
believe everything you read nowadays.

480
00:28:27,039 --> 00:28:28,749
Well, my little shit-stirrer.

481
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,046
As per your request
for additional manpower and man hours,

482
00:28:34,130 --> 00:28:36,716
unlimited overtime has been approved

483
00:28:36,799 --> 00:28:39,635
for the investigation into
the killings of homeless men

484
00:28:39,719 --> 00:28:42,096
for you and one other detective only.

485
00:28:42,179 --> 00:28:44,599
What about surveillance teams?

486
00:28:44,682 --> 00:28:47,226
We need to be watching places,
watching the smokehounds.

487
00:28:47,310 --> 00:28:48,936
Two detectives only.

488
00:28:49,020 --> 00:28:52,273
You and the stalwart detective greggs here
are what has been authorized.

489
00:28:52,356 --> 00:28:54,734
- Nothing beyond that.
- What the fuck, Jay?

490
00:28:54,817 --> 00:28:56,670
I'm working a serial
killer here. It's a red ball.

491
00:28:56,694 --> 00:28:59,906
- Hence the overtime.
- But two detectives working a red ball?

492
00:28:59,989 --> 00:29:01,949
What the fuck's wrong with this city?

493
00:29:02,033 --> 00:29:03,409
We need hours for a dozen men.

494
00:29:03,492 --> 00:29:06,162
We need surveillance vehicles, cameras.

495
00:29:12,835 --> 00:29:13,835
What do you want from me?

496
00:29:13,878 --> 00:29:16,464
Ain't you still working that triple
from two weeks ago?

497
00:29:16,547 --> 00:29:20,259
I got stuff I could run down on that, yeah,
but Jay put me on this here.

498
00:29:22,637 --> 00:29:23,679
Come here.

499
00:29:30,019 --> 00:29:33,272
Do you even see how fucking wrong you are?
Do you even see it?

500
00:29:33,356 --> 00:29:35,149
They're gonna pay for this case, bunk.

501
00:29:35,232 --> 00:29:37,109
- This is just the beginning.
- What case?

502
00:29:37,193 --> 00:29:39,862
You just took a real
detective off a real case.

503
00:29:39,946 --> 00:29:42,907
I'll fix that. But eventually
these motherfuckers

504
00:29:42,990 --> 00:29:46,869
are gonna pay out enough for us to
do marlo Stanfield. Just watch and learn.

505
00:29:46,953 --> 00:29:49,205
You've lost your fucking mind, Jimmy.
Look at you.

506
00:29:49,288 --> 00:29:52,291
Half-lit every third night,
dead drunk every second.

507
00:29:52,375 --> 00:29:56,963
Nut deep in random pussy. What little time
you do spend sober and limp-dicked,

508
00:29:57,046 --> 00:29:59,048
you're working murders
that don't even exist.

509
00:30:09,475 --> 00:30:11,602
Take the ot and work
the hell out of your triple.

510
00:30:11,686 --> 00:30:14,146
Don't worry about your
reports, I'll cover you.

511
00:30:14,230 --> 00:30:16,315
- What the fuck is going on?
- Work your triple.

512
00:30:16,399 --> 00:30:18,651
I'll cover every hour
of it from my case file.

513
00:30:23,906 --> 00:30:26,409
Excuse me, sir. Sir!

514
00:30:27,994 --> 00:30:30,538
I'm with the Baltimore sun.
Can I talk with you?

515
00:30:30,621 --> 00:30:32,206
You make an appointment?

516
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,711
Sorry. I'm booked up all afternoon.

517
00:30:36,794 --> 00:30:40,006
I'm doing a story on the homeless men
who've been killed.

518
00:30:40,089 --> 00:30:41,173
You heard about that?

519
00:30:43,926 --> 00:30:45,386
You got two dollars on you, right?

520
00:30:45,469 --> 00:30:48,931
I was wondering if
the murders had changed things

521
00:30:49,015 --> 00:30:50,599
for you and the other fellas out here.

522
00:31:06,991 --> 00:31:09,035
You wanna know about them murders?

523
00:31:09,118 --> 00:31:11,787
- That's why I'm here.
- Wanna know who's doing it?

524
00:31:11,871 --> 00:31:14,123
- Do you know who's doing it?
- I do.

525
00:31:14,206 --> 00:31:17,334
- Can you handle hearing it?
- What's your name?

526
00:31:17,418 --> 00:31:20,713
Nathan Levi Boston.

527
00:31:20,796 --> 00:31:22,214
And you know who the killer is?

528
00:31:22,298 --> 00:31:25,885
Do you believe Satan walks the earth
in a fleshly form?

529
00:31:25,968 --> 00:31:29,221
That Satan can occupy the souls of men?

530
00:31:29,305 --> 00:31:31,891
And he's just getting started.

531
00:31:32,975 --> 00:31:36,353
There's gonna be a lot more dead
before it's over.

532
00:31:36,437 --> 00:31:39,190
Hundreds. Maybe thousands.

533
00:31:46,155 --> 00:31:47,823
(Car horn)

534
00:32:01,587 --> 00:32:05,257
They told me they still had you working
outta this shithole but I didn't believe it.

535
00:32:05,341 --> 00:32:08,469
It ain't much but it's been months
since a boss has been able to find me.

536
00:32:08,552 --> 00:32:11,680
You still have some interest
in marlo Stanfield, right?

537
00:32:14,100 --> 00:32:15,976
That's his cell.

538
00:32:16,060 --> 00:32:17,853
He stopped using cellphones.

539
00:32:17,937 --> 00:32:20,815
Ellis, how?

540
00:32:20,898 --> 00:32:23,526
Police work, detective. Police work.

541
00:32:37,331 --> 00:32:40,292
- (Slurring) Yo, this the high hat?
- (Marlo) Say what?

542
00:32:40,376 --> 00:32:44,463
Y'all still open for carryout?
I want some of that pepper steak.

543
00:32:44,547 --> 00:32:46,215
(Marlo) Wrong number, fool.

544
00:32:48,717 --> 00:32:50,094
(Laughs)

545
00:32:50,177 --> 00:32:53,013
I wish I could tell you it's a shock,

546
00:32:53,097 --> 00:32:54,849
but it seems to happen in every city

547
00:32:54,932 --> 00:32:57,643
where we get us a place
inside the power structure

548
00:32:57,726 --> 00:33:00,771
- and we become targets.
- I know you're right.

549
00:33:00,855 --> 00:33:05,192
I'm not saying it's a black-white thing.
The state's attorney, Mr. Bond, he's black.

550
00:33:05,276 --> 00:33:07,444
But if it serves his purpose -

551
00:33:07,528 --> 00:33:10,406
gets his name in the
news, ups his profile -

552
00:33:10,489 --> 00:33:13,159
he'll do whatever the folks
pulling the strings want.

553
00:33:13,242 --> 00:33:16,120
Whether it be character assassination,

554
00:33:16,203 --> 00:33:18,747
tie the noose in the rope, whatever.

555
00:33:18,831 --> 00:33:20,541
But they picked the wrong man this time.

556
00:33:20,624 --> 00:33:23,502
- They must not heard about you, senator.
- I don't run from a fight.

557
00:33:23,586 --> 00:33:25,337
- I know that.
- The people know...

558
00:33:25,421 --> 00:33:27,214
I'm talkin' 'bout the people now.

559
00:33:27,298 --> 00:33:30,885
The people know what I've done
for west Baltimore and this city.

560
00:33:30,968 --> 00:33:33,220
They know the battles I fight
in Annapolis every day.

561
00:33:33,304 --> 00:33:35,931
They know these charges
ain't nothing but bs.

562
00:33:36,015 --> 00:33:37,683
Hey, hold it now, it's radio.

563
00:33:37,766 --> 00:33:39,518
I gotta hold my tongue, I know.

564
00:33:39,602 --> 00:33:42,521
I don't want nobody pullin'
y'all's broadcasting license,

565
00:33:42,605 --> 00:33:44,273
so I can't say it like I feel it.

566
00:33:44,356 --> 00:33:47,067
But I wanted to come here
on your show tonight -

567
00:33:47,151 --> 00:33:50,196
and thank you so much
for the opportunity, my brother -

568
00:33:50,279 --> 00:33:54,366
but I wanted your listeners to be
the first to hear it from my mouth.

569
00:33:54,450 --> 00:33:57,203
I have committed no crime,

570
00:33:57,286 --> 00:34:00,086
and I am gonna keep on doing
the people's work without breaking stride.

571
00:34:00,122 --> 00:34:01,498
Thank you for that, senator.

572
00:34:01,582 --> 00:34:05,419
And also I want everybody to know
there's going to be a gathering

573
00:34:05,502 --> 00:34:09,048
at the Mitchell courthouse
tomorrow at two o'clock,

574
00:34:09,131 --> 00:34:11,300
so that people can be heard on this.

575
00:34:11,383 --> 00:34:14,970
- I hope they come out in good numbers.
- Two o'clock on calvert street.

576
00:34:15,054 --> 00:34:17,890
- It's time to lift every voice.
- I heard that.

577
00:34:17,973 --> 00:34:22,144
Three detectives for a 24-hour wiretap.

578
00:34:22,228 --> 00:34:24,813
Four more for a couple
of two-man surveillance teams.

579
00:34:24,897 --> 00:34:26,899
A pair of unmarked cars.

580
00:34:26,982 --> 00:34:29,193
I'm not asking the world here, Cedric.

581
00:34:29,276 --> 00:34:31,570
Lester, if I had it, you'd have it.

582
00:34:31,654 --> 00:34:36,283
That's the cell number of the motherfucker
who put 22 bodies on us!

583
00:34:36,367 --> 00:34:38,619
- Go to the fucking mayor!
- I've been to the mayor.

584
00:34:38,702 --> 00:34:42,248
I've been to him on my knees twice.
Once for your case, remember?

585
00:34:42,331 --> 00:34:45,542
And all I could bring back was
two men to work Clay Davis.

586
00:34:45,626 --> 00:34:49,588
And yesterday, for the serial killer
that homicide was working, two men only.

587
00:34:49,672 --> 00:34:52,675
I've done my job.
I've gone up the ladder every time.

588
00:34:52,758 --> 00:34:56,303
But if a fucking serial killer can't bring
back more than a couple detectives,

589
00:34:56,387 --> 00:34:59,848
what the hell does it matter
that you have a fresh phone number?

590
00:35:07,147 --> 00:35:10,609
More manpower's been assigned,
according to the pio.

591
00:35:10,693 --> 00:35:12,987
- (Man) Did I get that story back?
- Mm-hmm.

592
00:35:13,070 --> 00:35:14,738
And?

593
00:35:14,822 --> 00:35:18,659
I led with the first victim. Ex-marine.
Bronze-star in Vietnam.

594
00:35:18,742 --> 00:35:21,745
His family begged him to come home,
which he would do now and then,

595
00:35:21,829 --> 00:35:25,040
but they hadn't seen him
in a month before the murder.

596
00:35:25,124 --> 00:35:27,626
Good shit. Real good shit.

597
00:35:27,710 --> 00:35:29,545
Late, but you got the goods, right?

598
00:35:29,628 --> 00:35:33,257
Half of these guys are whack jobs,
the other halfjust want to borrow a fin.

599
00:35:35,050 --> 00:35:37,511
But yeah, I got good stuff.

600
00:35:37,594 --> 00:35:40,347
Got a family of four
under the Hanover street bridge.

601
00:35:40,431 --> 00:35:43,142
Father broke down and cried
when I talked to him,

602
00:35:43,225 --> 00:35:46,979
talking about how he couldn't
protect himself, couldn't protect his kids.

603
00:35:47,062 --> 00:35:49,815
Motherjust kept stroking
the youngest one's blonde hair.

604
00:35:49,898 --> 00:35:51,692
- We got names on this, right?
- Yeah.

605
00:35:51,775 --> 00:35:53,652
Guy's name is...

606
00:35:55,404 --> 00:35:57,990
Boston. Nathan Levi Boston.

607
00:35:58,073 --> 00:36:00,326
Ok, you got 30 inches, if you need them.

608
00:36:00,409 --> 00:36:03,829
You're going off the front
in a package with Alma and fletch.

609
00:36:03,912 --> 00:36:06,832
Olesker wrote a pretty damn good
column, too, for Metro front.

610
00:36:06,915 --> 00:36:08,417
Go, go. Write, write.

611
00:36:08,500 --> 00:36:13,422
This serial killer is making one
baltimorean very, very happy.

612
00:36:13,505 --> 00:36:15,174
- Clay Davis.
- (Laughs)

613
00:36:15,257 --> 00:36:18,469
One news cycle, and his indictment's
gonna be off the front page.

614
00:36:18,552 --> 00:36:21,263
Well, if it bleeds, it leads.

615
00:36:21,347 --> 00:36:23,015
A fucking serial killer.

616
00:36:23,098 --> 00:36:26,060
I give them a sex-crazed madman
who's enough of a freak show

617
00:36:26,143 --> 00:36:29,104
to get the whole city hot and bothered
and what comes back?

618
00:36:29,188 --> 00:36:31,440
One fucking detective.

619
00:36:31,523 --> 00:36:34,234
And who is it? Kima greggs,
who should be working her triple.

620
00:36:34,318 --> 00:36:37,863
So now I can't give you her hours
without fucking up honest casework.

621
00:36:37,946 --> 00:36:40,657
Well, now it's easier, Jimmy.
We don't need as much.

622
00:36:40,741 --> 00:36:42,826
Now we need a wiretap.

623
00:36:42,910 --> 00:36:44,453
I can monitor that myself.

624
00:36:44,536 --> 00:36:47,790
Shit, anything we get up
is gonna be illegal anyway.

625
00:36:47,873 --> 00:36:49,833
So we don't want anyone getting near it.

626
00:36:49,917 --> 00:36:52,127
Sydnor, maybe. I can trust him.

627
00:36:52,211 --> 00:36:55,047
You start pulling
information off that phone,

628
00:36:55,130 --> 00:36:58,634
you're gonna need at least a couple
of surveillance cars in the street.

629
00:36:58,717 --> 00:37:00,094
We'll worry when we get there.

630
00:37:00,177 --> 00:37:03,514
The important thing is that
he's making it easy for us.

631
00:37:03,597 --> 00:37:06,934
Before, with all that face-to-face,
we were gonna need what?

632
00:37:07,017 --> 00:37:09,061
Remote cameras, microphones,

633
00:37:09,144 --> 00:37:11,772
half a dozen guys
working surveillance 24 hours.

634
00:37:11,855 --> 00:37:16,318
But now he's talking on a phone,
and I got him.

635
00:37:16,402 --> 00:37:19,863
So how do we squeeze a wiretap
out of my serial killer?

636
00:37:22,282 --> 00:37:24,368
He's gotta call someone.

637
00:37:24,451 --> 00:37:26,245
Who?

638
00:37:26,328 --> 00:37:27,746
The mayor.

639
00:37:27,830 --> 00:37:29,164
Cardinal Keeler.

640
00:37:29,248 --> 00:37:31,667
Cal fucking ripken. Who gives a fuck?

641
00:37:34,545 --> 00:37:37,297
A bullshit number on
the papennork to the courthouse,

642
00:37:37,381 --> 00:37:40,759
marlo's cell number on the tap itself.

643
00:37:40,843 --> 00:37:42,970
This is fucking genius.

644
00:37:43,053 --> 00:37:44,054
(Laughs)

645
00:37:44,138 --> 00:37:46,181
- Or not.
- (Phone rings)

646
00:37:50,352 --> 00:37:53,272
If that's about your case,
you need to answer it.

647
00:37:53,355 --> 00:37:57,776
- Remember you're working a serial killer.
- Nah, it's my ex-wife.

648
00:37:57,860 --> 00:38:01,405
Been calling all night.
Like I got time for her fucking bullshit.

649
00:38:01,488 --> 00:38:05,784
They got to believe it's your killer
calling before they'll pay for a wiretap.

650
00:38:05,868 --> 00:38:07,453
Well, fine. Fuck it.

651
00:38:07,536 --> 00:38:09,997
Call your buddy Oscar,
tell him we need another body.

652
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,624
This time the sick motherfucker
is gonna call Mr. Ripken

653
00:38:12,708 --> 00:38:15,043
with something only the killer could know.

654
00:38:15,919 --> 00:38:18,380
That should shake 'em up enough
for a couple of wiretaps.

655
00:38:19,298 --> 00:38:20,966
(Both laugh)

656
00:38:21,300 --> 00:38:22,801
(Soul music on radio)

657
00:38:22,885 --> 00:38:24,887
(Singing along to radio)

658
00:38:36,398 --> 00:38:38,567
Monk sure do like to retire early.

659
00:38:40,736 --> 00:38:42,488
Three go in and one come out.

660
00:38:42,571 --> 00:38:43,906
Better odds.

661
00:38:46,366 --> 00:38:50,996
We're gonna wait on it, though.
They'll get better still.

662
00:38:51,079 --> 00:38:52,873
If not tonight, then the next.

663
00:38:53,999 --> 00:38:55,584
You're a patient man.

664
00:38:55,667 --> 00:38:57,294
Him too.

665
00:38:58,921 --> 00:39:01,798
(Singing)

666
00:39:16,230 --> 00:39:18,023
I tried to reach you on your cell all day.

667
00:39:18,106 --> 00:39:21,193
- I called beadie, she had no idea...
- I know. It's my fault.

668
00:39:21,276 --> 00:39:23,654
- They still up?
- Yes.

669
00:39:27,950 --> 00:39:29,993
- Hey, guys.
- Hey, dad.

670
00:39:30,077 --> 00:39:31,787
(Rock music)

671
00:39:31,870 --> 00:39:35,666
Listen, Sean, I did everything I could
to get to your play tonight.

672
00:39:38,168 --> 00:39:39,169
Hey, Mike.

673
00:39:45,467 --> 00:39:46,802
It's cool. No worries.

674
00:39:48,554 --> 00:39:50,430
Your mom said you were great.

675
00:39:50,514 --> 00:39:52,224
Why don't you do it now? Let me hear it.

676
00:39:52,307 --> 00:39:56,311
I don't know. It's lame like that.
You gotta see the whole play.

677
00:40:05,028 --> 00:40:07,573
- What band is that?
- Dead Meadow.

678
00:40:07,656 --> 00:40:09,992
- Dead metal?
- Meadow. Dead Meadow.

679
00:40:11,910 --> 00:40:14,413
What the hell's wrong with the ramones?

680
00:40:18,041 --> 00:40:20,877
I'll make it up to them next weekend.
Take 'em to a ball game.

681
00:40:20,961 --> 00:40:26,091
Hey, this is life, Jimmy.
This is the stuff that actually matters.

682
00:40:26,174 --> 00:40:28,385
- I know.
- I talked to beadie.

683
00:40:29,636 --> 00:40:32,139
She knows she's losing you. Like I knew.

684
00:40:32,222 --> 00:40:34,433
I'm notjudging.

685
00:40:34,516 --> 00:40:37,102
I'm not saying this to hurt you.

686
00:40:37,185 --> 00:40:38,520
But she knows.

687
00:40:38,604 --> 00:40:42,024
And she's ready for it,
the way that I was ready for it.

688
00:40:42,107 --> 00:40:44,610
You're drinking. You're out all night.

689
00:40:44,693 --> 00:40:46,445
She doesn't know where you are.

690
00:40:46,528 --> 00:40:48,947
And she's no fool, Jimmy.

691
00:40:49,031 --> 00:40:52,242
I'm sad that it wasn't with me...

692
00:40:54,453 --> 00:40:56,246
But I'm glad for you.

693
00:40:58,373 --> 00:41:00,626
I know, you can imagine that?

694
00:41:00,709 --> 00:41:03,378
I was glad that you found her.

695
00:41:04,296 --> 00:41:06,673
Mmm, I was glad for her, even.

696
00:41:08,508 --> 00:41:12,471
For a while there, you were
happier than I've ever seen you.

697
00:41:12,554 --> 00:41:14,139
She's great.

698
00:41:15,098 --> 00:41:16,516
She is.

699
00:41:18,727 --> 00:41:19,728
Don't do this.

700
00:41:34,409 --> 00:41:36,078
Hey.

701
00:41:40,874 --> 00:41:43,085
You all right, bubs?

702
00:41:43,168 --> 00:41:44,503
I'm good.

703
00:41:44,586 --> 00:41:48,090
Good. Except for somethin'
that's been on my mind.

704
00:41:48,173 --> 00:41:50,717
- But I see you into somethin'...
- I can take a minute.

705
00:41:50,801 --> 00:41:54,429
Need to find somethin' out. But at the same
time I don't know if I really wanna know.

706
00:41:56,765 --> 00:41:59,518
It's best to know, bubs. I'm living proof.

707
00:41:59,601 --> 00:42:01,687
They got drugs an' shit now.

708
00:42:01,770 --> 00:42:03,522
Why's it on your mind now?

709
00:42:03,605 --> 00:42:07,359
Been volunteering down viva house,
doin' like you told me.

710
00:42:07,442 --> 00:42:09,361
Man say he want me to serve food.

711
00:42:09,444 --> 00:42:12,406
You can. It don't travel like that.

712
00:42:12,489 --> 00:42:15,701
I know they say so, but I feel...

713
00:42:15,784 --> 00:42:17,619
I don't know.

714
00:42:17,703 --> 00:42:21,540
I went down to the clinic on my own
yesterday, got as far as the door, but...

715
00:42:21,623 --> 00:42:25,127
- Tough to go alone.
- Yeah.

716
00:42:26,336 --> 00:42:27,796
Gimme ten minutes.

717
00:42:30,674 --> 00:42:32,843
So, where do we take it today?

718
00:42:32,926 --> 00:42:36,054
Unless the story develops,
I think we've covered the bases.

719
00:42:36,138 --> 00:42:39,933
Alma can check on things
and see where we're at by afternoon.

720
00:42:40,016 --> 00:42:41,560
You owe me a govans story.

721
00:42:41,643 --> 00:42:44,604
And you need to get with Shane
on that school series.

722
00:42:44,688 --> 00:42:47,107
I don't know, Gus. I
think this thing has legs.

723
00:42:47,190 --> 00:42:50,444
Maybe I go out with the cops on their
rounds. Watch 'em warn the homeless.

724
00:42:50,527 --> 00:42:54,281
Good thought, but Alma
can work that into whatever she has.

725
00:43:00,537 --> 00:43:02,831
(Sighs)

726
00:43:02,914 --> 00:43:04,040
(Knock at door)

727
00:43:04,124 --> 00:43:05,125
Yeah?

728
00:43:06,668 --> 00:43:08,712
Hey.

729
00:43:08,795 --> 00:43:10,213
Busy?

730
00:43:10,297 --> 00:43:12,466
No, just, uh...

731
00:43:15,427 --> 00:43:17,429
Jimmy's not in yet.

732
00:43:17,512 --> 00:43:20,223
I know. He's sleeping one off.

733
00:43:21,683 --> 00:43:24,561
- Late night, huh?
- They're all like that now.

734
00:43:26,229 --> 00:43:28,774
Relax, I'm not looking for a snitch.

735
00:43:28,857 --> 00:43:31,067
I know you're his partner in crime.
I don't care.

736
00:43:31,151 --> 00:43:32,194
Whoa, beadie.

737
00:43:32,277 --> 00:43:34,613
I just want to know from you
where this is going.

738
00:43:34,696 --> 00:43:38,617
I mean, you know him. You know
what it is that he can and can't do.

739
00:43:38,700 --> 00:43:40,202
Don't know if I can speak on that.

740
00:43:40,285 --> 00:43:44,956
Look, I'm ready to put him out, ok?
For me, for my kids.

741
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,334
I mean, if, in the end,
if this is all there is to him.

742
00:43:47,417 --> 00:43:50,462
If he can't be better than this,
I just want to know.

743
00:43:50,545 --> 00:43:52,964
He's working this case right now.

744
00:43:54,508 --> 00:43:55,884
Serial killer, actually.

745
00:43:55,967 --> 00:44:00,430
You are not gonna try to tell me that this is
about a case. Try that shit on some civilian.

746
00:44:00,514 --> 00:44:03,809
Look, he'll get his head in a
certain place, he'll take a drink.

747
00:44:03,892 --> 00:44:05,852
I mean, a lot of us will.

748
00:44:05,936 --> 00:44:10,565
- It's more than just a drink he's taking.
- Beadie, I can't tell you what to do.

749
00:44:15,028 --> 00:44:17,030
I don't like giving up.

750
00:44:21,326 --> 00:44:24,538
Ok, I gotta go back to work.
Thanks for letting me vent.

751
00:44:24,621 --> 00:44:26,623
(Sighs)

752
00:44:32,754 --> 00:44:34,548
You want to get started today?

753
00:44:34,631 --> 00:44:37,259
- Sooner we decide on...
- After lunch, yeah.

754
00:45:07,789 --> 00:45:10,041
- (Ringing tone)
- (Cellphone rings)

755
00:45:25,724 --> 00:45:27,726
- (Bubbles) Finally found a line, huh?
- Mm-hmm.

756
00:45:27,809 --> 00:45:30,520
Know that wasn't easy.
They been hidin' for years.

757
00:45:30,604 --> 00:45:33,064
- I'm a pro.
- Me, too.

758
00:45:34,149 --> 00:45:35,901
- Let me ask you...
- Hmm?

759
00:45:36,651 --> 00:45:38,278
When do the results come back?

760
00:45:39,487 --> 00:45:41,615
About an hour from this test.

761
00:45:41,698 --> 00:45:42,741
There you go.

762
00:45:42,824 --> 00:45:47,787
And they want you to believe
that there's only one side to this story,

763
00:45:47,871 --> 00:45:51,625
and that their so-called facts
cannot be denied.

764
00:45:51,708 --> 00:45:55,420
But we have some facts
of our own, don't we?

765
00:45:55,503 --> 00:45:56,546
Yeah!

766
00:45:56,630 --> 00:45:58,965
- We know who our leaders are.
- (Woman) That's right.

767
00:45:59,049 --> 00:46:03,094
And we don't want them picking
our leaders for us, do we?

768
00:46:04,429 --> 00:46:08,433
And we will not stand idly by
as they single out our leaders

769
00:46:08,516 --> 00:46:10,602
and selectively prosecute,

770
00:46:10,685 --> 00:46:13,021
- or should I say persecute them...
- That's right!

771
00:46:13,104 --> 00:46:17,609
Just because they have the courage
and the fortitude to stand up for us.

772
00:46:17,692 --> 00:46:19,986
(Cheering)

773
00:46:20,070 --> 00:46:21,488
Let them hear you.

774
00:46:21,571 --> 00:46:24,324
Let them hear you loud and clear.

775
00:46:25,742 --> 00:46:29,287
Clay Davis isn't going anywhere, is he?

776
00:46:30,622 --> 00:46:33,708
- We need him, we're going to keep him...
- That's right!

777
00:46:33,792 --> 00:46:36,962
And damn anyone who says othennise.

778
00:46:37,045 --> 00:46:38,546
Clay Davis!

779
00:46:45,053 --> 00:46:48,390
What the fuck is this I hear about
you might not stand tall on this?

780
00:46:48,473 --> 00:46:51,267
You got that wrong, old friend.
I'm gonna carry this.

781
00:46:51,351 --> 00:46:53,812
You damn sure better. Because if you don't,

782
00:46:53,895 --> 00:46:57,315
you won't be able to squeeze another
greenback out of this town

783
00:46:57,399 --> 00:46:59,651
for the rest of your natural life.

784
00:46:59,734 --> 00:47:03,989
We shall not be,
we shall not be moved

785
00:47:04,072 --> 00:47:08,326
(all) We shall not be,
we shall not be moved...

786
00:47:08,660 --> 00:47:09,995
(Landsman) Ooh, la, la!

787
00:47:10,078 --> 00:47:11,788
Lookie here.

788
00:47:11,871 --> 00:47:14,499
- The fuck is that?
- A change of pace.

789
00:47:15,375 --> 00:47:18,253
They look kinda hot with their clothes on.

790
00:47:21,006 --> 00:47:23,758
Hey, Clarice.

791
00:47:23,842 --> 00:47:26,344
Your serial killer called
the Baltimore sun.

792
00:47:26,428 --> 00:47:29,180
Some goof claiming to be your guy
called a reporter.

793
00:47:29,264 --> 00:47:32,017
- One of the guys writing this shit up.
- Gotta be a crank call.

794
00:47:32,100 --> 00:47:33,435
Probably so.

795
00:47:33,518 --> 00:47:35,562
But seeing as it's the fucking newspaper

796
00:47:35,645 --> 00:47:39,607
you go over there and
you set them straight.

797
00:47:56,624 --> 00:47:57,917
Go ahead.

798
00:48:07,177 --> 00:48:08,470
Negative.

799
00:48:11,890 --> 00:48:14,392
- Negative means...
- I know what it means.

800
00:48:16,436 --> 00:48:18,772
- Must be wrong.
- It ain't wrong.

801
00:48:18,855 --> 00:48:21,232
All the shit I done.

802
00:48:21,316 --> 00:48:22,901
All the works I shared.

803
00:48:22,984 --> 00:48:26,237
My best boy years back? I fired
off the same hypo as him dozens of times.

804
00:48:26,321 --> 00:48:28,323
He had the bug for sure.

805
00:48:30,158 --> 00:48:32,285
That shit ain't right nohow, man.

806
00:48:33,995 --> 00:48:36,247
You're disappointed.

807
00:48:36,331 --> 00:48:38,208
Shit, this ain't about the bug, is it?

808
00:48:38,291 --> 00:48:42,212
This is you tryin' to make
the past be everything, mean everything.

809
00:48:42,295 --> 00:48:45,423
You don't even wanna think
about the here and now.

810
00:48:45,507 --> 00:48:47,467
Sorry, bubs.

811
00:48:47,550 --> 00:48:50,011
Shame ain't worth as much as you think.

812
00:48:51,262 --> 00:48:52,347
Let it go.

813
00:48:56,810 --> 00:49:00,438
He said he wanted people to know
there'd be 12 bodies before he's finished.

814
00:49:00,522 --> 00:49:03,525
He said, quote, "I came to take 12."

815
00:49:03,608 --> 00:49:05,652
I said, "what happens after 12?"

816
00:49:05,735 --> 00:49:08,947
He said, quote,
"I go somewhere else," unquote.

817
00:49:09,030 --> 00:49:13,743
I asked him about the bite marks. He said that
they wanted him to bite, they asked for that.

818
00:49:13,827 --> 00:49:17,622
He complained that the article
made him sound like a pervert.

819
00:49:17,705 --> 00:49:20,416
I asked him if he was angry at the men.

820
00:49:20,500 --> 00:49:21,500
He hung up.

821
00:49:21,543 --> 00:49:24,963
He called you on your cellphone?
Why didn't he call the paper?

822
00:49:25,046 --> 00:49:29,217
I was all over the city yesterday
handing my cards out to homeless men.

823
00:49:29,300 --> 00:49:32,011
He probably got the number from a card.

824
00:49:32,095 --> 00:49:33,721
Shit, I might've handed him a card.

825
00:49:33,805 --> 00:49:37,100
I think this is the guy.
I mean, a chill ran down my back.

826
00:49:37,183 --> 00:49:39,644
But there's no way to know.
I mean, if it's some other nut,

827
00:49:39,727 --> 00:49:41,813
we're gonna look like
fools if we print this.

828
00:49:41,896 --> 00:49:44,190
Your cellphone caught the number?
He dialed you.

829
00:49:44,274 --> 00:49:45,441
Yeah, I dialed it back.

830
00:49:45,525 --> 00:49:48,403
Payphone on south Hanover
near west street.

831
00:49:52,907 --> 00:49:54,635
- What did he sound like?
- What do you mean?

832
00:49:54,659 --> 00:49:56,035
You talk to people for a living.

833
00:49:56,119 --> 00:49:58,246
Did he sound black, white? Younger, older?

834
00:49:58,329 --> 00:49:59,664
High-pitched voice or low?

835
00:49:59,747 --> 00:50:02,375
Uh, he sounded, to me, like a white guy.

836
00:50:02,458 --> 00:50:05,920
Not a deep voice, but
calm, almost monotone.

837
00:50:06,838 --> 00:50:11,092
He sounded older, I would say, 40s.
Not a real young guy.

838
00:50:11,176 --> 00:50:13,761
- Can I have your notebook?
- You can't have his notes.

839
00:50:13,845 --> 00:50:17,390
As this isn't a confidential source,
we won't invoke the Maryland shield law,

840
00:50:17,473 --> 00:50:19,517
but he'll type up a copy for you.

841
00:50:19,601 --> 00:50:22,353
But the actual document is
property of the Baltimore sun.

842
00:50:22,437 --> 00:50:25,106
So type it up, like, now.

843
00:50:25,190 --> 00:50:27,525
So, you're saying this could be the killer?

844
00:50:28,109 --> 00:50:29,611
Can we talk off the record?

845
00:50:31,237 --> 00:50:34,032
The homicide unit
received a phone call this morning

846
00:50:34,115 --> 00:50:36,367
from a payphone
from the same neighborhood,

847
00:50:36,451 --> 00:50:40,788
and based on Scott's voice description,
and the use of the number 12...

848
00:50:42,207 --> 00:50:45,376
Let's just say we need to find
whoever it was made both those calls.

849
00:50:45,460 --> 00:50:47,045
He made another call?

850
00:50:47,128 --> 00:50:51,799
Detective, as a newsman, I'm inclined
to include these details in our coverage

851
00:50:51,883 --> 00:50:55,386
if there's a credible chance the
killer was in contact with our reporter.

852
00:50:55,470 --> 00:50:58,097
Would doing so have any negative effect
on your investigation?

853
00:50:58,181 --> 00:51:01,851
Actually, these calls are
our best means of finding this guy.

854
00:51:01,935 --> 00:51:05,230
Every call he makes, every word he says,
to you and to us,

855
00:51:05,313 --> 00:51:06,981
can only provide information.

856
00:51:07,774 --> 00:51:10,777
- If we do run a story...
- You can't say he's contacted police.

857
00:51:10,860 --> 00:51:13,571
You can't print that part of it
under any circumstances.

858
00:51:13,655 --> 00:51:16,741
Ok, then how do we characterize
what the police think

859
00:51:16,824 --> 00:51:20,036
- about this call to Scott?
- You can say that we're, uh...

860
00:51:20,119 --> 00:51:21,496
Taking it seriously.

861
00:51:22,121 --> 00:51:25,792
Going fonnard, is it possible
that you would Grant a one-party consent

862
00:51:25,875 --> 00:51:29,712
for us to monitor your reporter's cellphone
and office phones?

863
00:51:29,796 --> 00:51:31,673
- Absolutely not.
- I'm sorry, detective,

864
00:51:31,756 --> 00:51:33,716
but our ability to report is dependent upon

865
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:37,011
our maintaining the confidentiality
of our conversations.

866
00:51:37,804 --> 00:51:41,933
We're perfectly willing to share with you
the information this individual has

867
00:51:42,016 --> 00:51:44,018
as he's definitely not
a confidential source.

868
00:51:44,102 --> 00:51:46,580
But we're not going to consent
to the Baltimore police department

869
00:51:46,604 --> 00:51:48,314
monitoring our phones.

870
00:51:48,398 --> 00:51:51,192
- You'll tap the payphone, I guess.
- Don't print that, either.

871
00:51:51,276 --> 00:51:54,487
Don't print anything
about where the killer calls from.

872
00:51:54,570 --> 00:51:55,655
He'll change up.

873
00:51:58,116 --> 00:52:00,785
Well, I'll type up my notes quick.

874
00:52:00,868 --> 00:52:04,247
- Big story for you guys, huh?
- Well, ten minutes ago I'd've said

875
00:52:04,330 --> 00:52:06,124
this whole thing was complete bullshit.

876
00:52:06,207 --> 00:52:08,167
Shows what I know, I guess.

877
00:52:11,754 --> 00:52:13,589
(Soul music on radio)

878
00:52:21,514 --> 00:52:23,641
(Davis) ...Which is why I'm gonna
fight this thing.

879
00:52:23,725 --> 00:52:27,478
I am innocent and I have done
nothing except serve the people.

880
00:52:27,562 --> 00:52:28,980
(Woman) Oh, I believe you, senator.

881
00:52:29,063 --> 00:52:32,900
I've seen the good work
you've done for the community...

882
00:52:32,984 --> 00:52:35,236
(Switches back to soul music)

883
00:52:44,370 --> 00:52:46,331
(Omar) That's Eddie cantor, right?

884
00:52:49,083 --> 00:52:50,793
It's perfect.

885
00:52:50,877 --> 00:52:54,088
- Mcnulty, it's perfect.
- I couldn't believe it.

886
00:52:54,172 --> 00:52:56,883
I'm sitting there,
all this bullshit coming at me,

887
00:52:56,966 --> 00:52:59,010
thinking, Christ, this is a waste of time.

888
00:52:59,093 --> 00:53:03,014
Then I realized - this is the wiretap.
Right here. They're giving it to me.

889
00:53:03,097 --> 00:53:04,807
Never mind me making a crank call.

890
00:53:04,891 --> 00:53:07,769
This right here is Lester freamon's
motherfucking wire.

891
00:53:17,570 --> 00:53:19,530
What if they check this?

892
00:53:19,614 --> 00:53:23,326
How many guys in this unit
have ever hooked up a wiretap?

893
00:53:23,409 --> 00:53:26,454
They don't know which wire goes where.

894
00:53:27,288 --> 00:53:28,706
Explain it to me again,

895
00:53:28,790 --> 00:53:32,043
because I think I'm a smart guy,
but this shit makes my head hurt.

896
00:53:32,126 --> 00:53:34,545
They think they're up on
your killer's cellphone,

897
00:53:34,629 --> 00:53:38,216
but they'll never catch a call
because this goes nowhere.

898
00:53:38,299 --> 00:53:41,677
And meanwhile,
using the same court authorization,

899
00:53:41,761 --> 00:53:45,556
I'm on the live wire down at the
detail office, listening to Mario.

900
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,893
Every day, you file
office and court reports

901
00:53:48,976 --> 00:53:51,896
saying there's been no further
contact with the serial killer.

902
00:53:51,979 --> 00:53:56,234
I file exactly nothing, but use what I hear

903
00:53:56,317 --> 00:53:58,820
to rig the case on our real target.

904
00:53:58,903 --> 00:54:00,405
And when it goes to court...

905
00:54:00,488 --> 00:54:02,615
No mention of a wiretap.
It's all based on a cl.

906
00:54:02,698 --> 00:54:03,699
There it is.

907
00:54:03,783 --> 00:54:06,661
Four copies signed by the judge.

908
00:54:06,744 --> 00:54:10,415
Emergency order for
telephonic intercept of a cellphone,

909
00:54:10,498 --> 00:54:14,001
number 410-915-0909.

910
00:54:14,085 --> 00:54:17,755
- If the machine is rigged, you're good to go.
- You're up.

911
00:54:17,839 --> 00:54:19,149
- Good hunting.
- (Landsman) Howie?

912
00:54:19,173 --> 00:54:22,051
- Yo.
- You got midnight shift.

913
00:54:22,135 --> 00:54:24,220
Worden'll be in to relieve you at six.

914
00:54:24,303 --> 00:54:28,099
After worden, my squad will pick up
monitoring on the dayshift.

915
00:54:32,854 --> 00:54:34,605
Excuse me.

916
00:54:34,689 --> 00:54:38,443
Don't look so pissy.
We're actually paying overtime for this.

917
00:54:39,735 --> 00:54:41,737
(Soul music)

918
00:55:33,873 --> 00:55:35,791
(G roans)

919
00:55:40,713 --> 00:55:41,714
O-dog!

920
00:55:43,758 --> 00:55:45,134
My leg!

921
00:55:45,218 --> 00:55:46,886
Stay the fuck down!

922
00:56:32,014 --> 00:56:33,015
What the...

923
00:56:38,354 --> 00:56:39,355
Damn.

924
00:56:44,318 --> 00:56:45,736
(Whistling)

925
00:56:45,820 --> 00:56:47,321
(Scratching sound)

926
00:57:09,260 --> 00:57:11,262
(Modem burbles)

927
00:57:15,683 --> 00:57:17,268
What the...

928
00:57:17,351 --> 00:57:19,353
(Beeping)
