You asked me if I had

We need access to your ports.
Yo, stay put, Little Man.

He saw Eugene Jones,

take the fucker out.
[ENGINE REVVING]
[CRASHING, GLASS SHATTERING]
[FIA] Did you "take the fucker out"?
[CARLO] He tried to k*ll me.
What is wrong with this family?
I'm so f*cking done with all of you.
Anyone else in the car?
Nah.
[MICHAEL] The night Adam d*ed,
Nancy Costello came to the hospital.
I told her that... you
got rid of the car.
Are you f*cking kidding me?
I was in shock.
I wasn't thinking clearly.
- I'm-I'm sorry.
- Get the f*ck out of here!
[NANCY] Where were you on the
night of your wife's m*rder?
[ELIZABETH] I want some answers.
I was brought in for suspicion
of k*lling Robin Desiato.
They found out that I wasn't home
the night she was k*lled.
I went to confront the man
she was sleeping with.
I'm Robin's mother.
[KENNETH] Detective
Costello came to see me.
And what did you tell her?
That I was home all night.
- So, I'm your alibi.
- And I'm yours.
- [MICHAEL] What was at the corner store?
- [ENTRY BELL CHIMES]
[KENNETH] A witness.
[MICHAEL] You... you saw this?
She walked in and he
was right behind her.
She never saw it coming.
KJ, tell us who he is.
Detective Walter Beckwith.
[MICHAEL] Nancy, it's Michael.
I think I know why you weren't
able to solve Robin's m*rder.
The k*ller was one of your own.
Adam Desiato was my godson.

That's a g*nsh*t wound,

I don't care what kind

I can't take him to a hospital.
It would be really bad.

- He's a carpenter.
- Oh, like Jesus.
[LAUGHS]
That's about the only thing
they had in common.
Anyway, I, uh, I worked
for him for several years.
And then, one day,
I said I wanted to do
something different.
And he laid out how bleak
my future would be
if I didn't have him to support me.
His was the only house I ever lived in.
He provided me with everything.
I was petrified to leave.
But there was one place...
... I knew I belonged.
Wow.
You really do pick your moments
and then try to proselytize.
[CHUCKLES] My point is, Fia, is if
you look at who is in your life...
... you may find that you
do belong someplace,
even if it's not the place
you've always been.

[NANCY] Where you headed, Rudy?
[SIGHS]
That boy never should've
come back to New Orleans.
What boy?
Rudy, what the f*ck?
Put your f*cking hands up!
I had a conversation with Beckwith.
You probably found it
pretty f*cking amusing,
watching me try to figure
out who k*lled Robin Desiato.
Congratulations, I guess,
but you're a couple years too late.
g*dd*mn it, Rudy.
Put your f*cking hands up!
You want to stop me,
you're gonna have to k*ll me.
I don't have a problem with that.
Did you order her hit?
She should've just let it go.
How'd you know she was gonna
be in the store that night?
Because I got a phone call.
The same phone call I always
get when there's a problem.
Like when a judge's car
needs to be disappeared.
Who?
[RUDY] I know you probably
won't believe me,
but back in the day,
I was a really good cop.
I took pride in my work.
I believed in what I was doing.
You k*ll people, for money.
I'm not all bad.
You're a son of a bitch.
[BREATHES DEEPLY]
I know something's got to happen here.
But I'm not going to prison.
Don't move!
- [g*nsh*t]
- [GASPS]
- Oh, Jesus.
- [DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE]
Oh, my God.
[TENSE, BROODING MUSIC]
Oh, sh*t.
- Come on, come on, come on, come on.
- [DOOR OPENS]
Michael.
He's dead.
[DISTANT SIREN APPROACHING]
He sh*t himself.
Did he say anything?
[FIRE CRACKLING]
I'm finding your tranquility
rather irritating.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
Oh, it's Cusack.
[JIMMY] Did you find the boy?
He was sh*t earlier tonight.
He's in the emergency room
being prepped for the O.R.
Is he gonna die?
He's expected to recover.
[JIMMY] And what happens then?
We place him under arrest.
- We're here now.
- [JIMMY] Okay. Okay.
No. You're happy with that result?
Well, I am happy the
thr*at's been neutralized.
I'm gonna try Fia again.
[FIA, RECORDED] Hey,
it's Fia. You missed me.
- Leave a message.
- [LINE BEEPS]
I want my child and my grandchild back!
Carlo.
You've been trying to prove
yourself for a while now.
- I know.
- Mm-hmm.
You're strong, decisive.
That can be very valuable.
We need someone right
now with fortitude.
Someone we can trust with our lives.
Can you be that for us now?
[CHUCKLES]
Yes.
Yes, I can.
[CARLO CHUCKLES]
Carlo, go downstairs and get the car.
Uh, yeah.
[DOOR OPENS]
[DOOR CLOSES]
My boy needs his rest.
And I don't want to see you at the house
unless Fia has come home.
[TENSE, DARK MUSIC]

[DOOR CLOSES]
Come up with something
better than "one bad apple."
"I am deeply remorseful to
learn that a decorated member
of the New Orleans Police Department
would falsify information and
conspire to defraud the public
in the interest of advancing
his own career.
But I remain confident that the actions
- of one unscrupulous officer... "
- [FINGERS SNAP]
"... is in no way a reflection
of our brave men and women in uniform."
[MICHAEL] Charlie.
Zeke, give us a minute.
Rudy Cunningham is dead.
I know.
He was your friend?
Well, uh... I knew him. Uh...
When I asked you to get rid of my car,
that's who you called, right?
Yeah.
He had Robin k*lled.
It turns out that Robin was k*lled
because she was
investigating dirty cops.
It wasn't a random act of v*olence.
It was a hit.
And before Robin left
the house that night,
I overheard her make a telephone call.
- Michael.
- And that call was to you, wasn't it?
[INTENSE, SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
She wanted to know if I had any contacts
in the police department.
And you called Rudy Cunningham?
Well, I-I called the guy I call.
Well, uh, I was trying to help her.
- I had no idea that...
- You didn't connect those dots?
If I had known, uh, I would
have come forward with it.
I'm sorry, Michael.
Me, too.
