Previously on Mayor of Kingstown...

Let me f*cking go, Mike!

We have a spare room upstairs.

We don't need her trouble
becomin' our trouble.

Who ordered this?

Nobody, man. That's the f*ckin' problem.

There's no leaders inside, Mike.

Not one sh*t caller in
the whole g*dd*mn camp.

We can't get no messages in or out.

I have an idea.

And you're gonna have to trust
me, 'cause it's gonna sting.

She's gone.

Gone?

What if I can get you the
leaders of all four gangs?

Everyone that's at w*r.

How long they planning on holding us?

MIKE: How long is it gonna take you

to get your house together inside?

- Not long.
- Ice cold, Mike.

Name another way.

I have no home.

You are home.

Are you Mike?

I am.

[MUSIC]

[SIRENS WAILING]

Did you speak to Candace?

I did.

She told you it was just me.

She did.

I wouldn't lie to you.

I know.

IRIS: I worked some hotels in Lansing.

I just needed some time, you know?

I thought you were dead,

in the riot, so...

I didn't know where to go.

No Mike?

f*ck Mike.

Did you?

What?

No.

I believe you, Iris.

I'm going to sleep, I'm tired.

We can deal with tomorrow
when tomorrow's here.

[MUSIC]

Go on.

[MUSIC]

[SHOUTING]

Get down, lay down!

Get that g*n out of my face, boy.

I'm too damn old to be gettin'
on my knees for anybody.

f*ckers in there, they'd
better not break my sh*t!

Lower the weapons! Stevie,
can we get her a chair?

You know who my grandson is.

I do, ma'am, yes. That's why we're here.

I know you got your
hands full with the kids.

We'll be in and out
real quick, I promise.

[MUSIC]

MIKE: f*ck me.

Oh, boy.

You put her at your mom's!

Yeah!

- I did.
- And she just...

ran away.

Yeah, like I f*ckin' said!

And you have no idea where she went.

MIKE: No. No idea.

So, it appears that neither one of us

know how to look after her. Right?

So I'm gonna go to work.

You can f*ck off and do whatever you do.

Hey, you're a federal informant.

- Can you f*ckin' save it?
- We pay you to inform.

Okay, I'll inform you I
don't know f*ckin' sh*t!

If Milo Sunter's out
there, he will find her.

Do what you gotta do,
okay? I'll do what I do.

And I'll tell you this...

If you forced her to testify...

he will k*ll her, and
who f*ckin' wins then?

[MUSIC]

f*ck.

What did I do?

You want some coffee?

Yeah, yeah.

That'd be great. Love some coffee.

Appreciate it.

Yeah? What, what?

I don't doubt what hell
that girl's been though,

but it's not yours to live in.

Look, Rebecca, I'm not tryin'
to live in that sh*t, okay?

I'm just tryin' to get
her the f*ck out of it.

[PHONE BUZZING]

MIKE: You look lovely, good morning,

and all that bullshit!

REBECCA: Thank you!

Yeah?

What?

When?

You're f*cking kidding me!

What in the f*ck?

Hey!

Do you listen to anything I say?!

Look where you are.
You gotta keep it down.

You f*ckin' raided the Commons!

Hey, CI told us that there
was illegal drug activity.

Are you kidding me?!

When is there not
f*ckin' drug activity?!

Use your f*ckin' heads, you guys!

Jesus Christ!

I negotiated the deal!

You don't att*ck them while
the leaders are inside!

Bunny takes a hit for us.

- What the f*ck?!
- Takes a hit, Mike!

He is a drug dealer.

Just 'cause he's your
f*ckin' drug dealer...

I don't know what to tell ya.

He's inside, working for us.

Let's not forget that, f*ck heads.

He's not gonna do
f*ckin' sh*t all for us

if you're goin' down and bustin' down

- his grandma's f*ckin' door!
- Mikey...

We were f*ckin' super
f*ckin' respectful.

- Very respectful.
- Very respectful.

I took it f*ckin' easy!

You dipshits, this'll
start a w*r out here.

Is that what you want?

You want us to stop bein' police?

Is that what you want?

f*ck them!

- MIKE: f*ck them?
- f*ck them.

- MIKE: f*ck you.
- f*ck them.

We're this f*ckin' close
to getting it done, okay?

- f*ck them!
- Hey, hey.

f*ckin'... calm the f*ck down.

- MIKE: We're this close.
- Mike, we're on the same g*dd*mn team.

Yeah, you're makin'
my job f*ckin' harder.

I'm not your f*ckin' janitor, you c**t!

f*ck you!

It's hot as a m*therf*cker
in this bitch, man, sh*t.

Sun's barely up, Bun.

You gon' sweat out all your toxins.

Yeah, my body's a temple
and all that sh*t, right?

Bunny Washington!

f*ck that cr*cker, bruh.

You ain't here to answer to his sh*t.

That m*therf*cker one of Mike's boys.

He probably got some
instructions or some sh*t.

You don't need no instructions
on how to run this sh*t.

The way I see it, Mike
is the last f*ckin' dude

that should be givin' instructions.

His sh*t is what got sh*t
twisted in the first place.

Listen.

From now on, we gonna
trust that Mike got a plan

to make this sh*t right.

All this sh*t shake out,
and we get our pound.

CARNEY: Let's f*cking go!

If it don't go his way...

We run it like we do.

Bunny Washington! I ain't got all day!

This m*therf*cker screamin'
my name like I owe him money.

- [MUSIC]
- [INMATE CROSSTALK]

MIKE: Hey.

Wanna take this sh*t off him?

CARNEY: You don't wanna do that.

Man's right. You don't wanna do that.

- Bunny...
- Mm-hmm?

Let me out, Mike.

I'm workin' on it, okay?

Get your sh*t settled in
here, I'll settle mine outside.

sh*t is settled.

sh*t is never gettin' settled, Mike.

I'm just fingerin' dykes in here, bruh.

I'm in here linin' it out, right?

Doin' your sh*t.

I want assurances.

I'm f*ckin' workin' on it.

Your word don't mean sh*t to me no more.

I don't wanna hear working.

I'm gonna get something from
the assistant DA next week.

Okay?

Listen to me.

What do you need in here
to make things right?

Some chips gotta get knocked off.

My cousin will run point when I get out.

Yeah, what do you need from me?

Backs turned, o'clock tomorrow.

Fine.

You check in on mine?

Cell phone shop is up and running.

My people?

They're taken care of.

sh*t, bruh, you do
a m*therf*cker like this...

it's gonna take a long-ass
time to bury this hatchet, Mike.

Yeah, I know.

Keep it tight, get it done. Okay?

Five at five. Okay?

Tomorrow.

- I can do that.
- MIKE: Yeah.

Kareem?

Keep him insulated.
He's the management now.

What the f*ck?

- [DRILL WHIRRING]
- [HAMMERING]

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

Jesus Christ.

f*ckin' good to see ya.

Hey, good to see you!

Finally banished you f*ckers, huh?

You decided to come in?

- Well, well, huh?
- KYLE: Nice to see ya.

- STEVIE: How you doin', huh?
- Yeah.

I'm all right. I'm all right.

- Good!
- KYLE: Hey, thank you.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

Stevie, just get these
f*ckers back to work.

Happy time's over, people.

- That's it?
- Yep, that's it.

That's it.

- STEVIE: It's good to see you.
- Yeah, you too.

Well, what do you want?
A coffee, you want a doughnut?

- You want...?
- Nah, nah, I'm good, I'm good.

I just...

You know, I just need a minute.

f*ck, it's good to be back here.

It's f*ckin' great to see you.

You too, man.

You're good?

f*ckers suspended me.

Pending the investigation.

No pay, and...

It's like, they know I got
a kid on the way, and I said,

"f*ck you m*therf*ckers. I quit."

You did the right thing. f*ck them.

You need to be here.

We need more f*ckin'
soldiers on the street.

That's what I want.

I mean, what do we gotta
do to make that happen?

You gotta f*ckin' be patient.

They're not gonna put
you back on the street

until the staties call this
a righteous f*ckin' sh**t.

It f*ckin' was a righteous sh**t!

f*ckin' bureaucratic bullshit.

But...

you gotta f*ckin' keep your head down.

Until the IA report comes back clean.

Once that happens,
you're f*ckin' golden.

I'm dyin' in here, man. It's...

This is home for me. You know?

You talkin' to anybody?

Are you f*ckin' talkin' to anybody?

I got a f*ckin' empty apartment,

I got a f*ckin' ex-girlfriend's cat.

Neither one of 'em will
talk to me, all right?

You got f*ckin' sh*t to work for.

You have got a f*ckin'
wife who loves you.

You have got a kid on the way.

I don't need a shrink,
Ian. I need a job.

Brother, I got you. All right?

- KYLE: All right.
- All right?

- KYLE: All right.
- I got ya.

- I know.
- All right?

Okay.

KYLE: KPD can't take me
back until IA clears me,

and that's probably gonna
take a couple months.

And it's like, I don't have
a f*ckin' couple months, Mike.

I...

I need somethin', man. I,
I, I gotta f*ckin' earn.

Well, why don't you just
take a f*ckin' break, right?

Put a pause on this sh*t.

I take a break, I'm
gonna f*cking lose it.

I gotta stay busy.
I'm already losin' it.

You know, why don't
you do sh*t around here?

Help Ma out, right?

Fix the doors, the gates, mow the lawn,

that kinda sh*t, right?

f*ck you, don't brush me off like that.

All right, look, if you want a chore,

I can give you a chore.

Yes, that's what I want. What you got?

Check the train station,
bus depot, taxis.

All that.

Ma gave her a list of
shelters, check those.

Can't find Iris?

Nope.

Oh, Mike...

You gotta give that to the
feds, or somethin', to KPD.

'Cause I tell you what,

she's probably back in New
York or wherever the f*ck,

livin' her best f*ckin' life.

Best case scenario,

she's put miles between
Kingstown and herself.

'Cause if she's still here...

Well, that's what I'm
tryin' to find out.

Okay?

[MUSIC]

[KNOCKING] Knock, knock.

Hey.

Let him in.

What do you want, Mike?

Just checkin' in on you.

Makin' sure you're okay.

Mm-hm.

You talk to him yet?

Who?

He wasn't identified
on the inside, so...

Oh...

Yeah.

A lot of bodies.

Oh, cut the sh*t, Joseph. Come on.

You and I both know that he's out.

I would love to see my friend free.

Is that right, your friend?

Milo values loyalty.

And I am loyal above all.

Well, nine years...
You're his errand boy.

Nothin' you can do now that he can't.

Right?

[BABY CRYING]

Is that a f*ckin' baby?

I hear nothing.

No?

What do you want, Mike?

What'd you do with her?

Who?

Did you k*ll her?

Mike, when whore talks to feds...

What do you think happens?

Stop.

[BABY CRYING]

Get out. Pashla von!

I'll be back.

You can count on it.

[BABY CRYING]

[MUSIC]

[PHONE RINGING]

MIKE: Tell me you got some movement.

Hey, Mike!

I'm fine, how are you?

Just give me somethin', Evelyn. Come on.

I'm workin' the boss,

everything's good as far as I know.

Well, that doesn't
really f*cking help me.

You know, I made promises.
I need release dates.

Well, maybe you
shouldn't have done that.

A lot of paper to be pushed.

Listen, I need you to see something.

MIKE: Right now?

minutes.

Meet me at Warwick Detention.

I can't. I got, I got sh*t to do.

Hey, this is for you.

The world is changing,
and you need to see it.

Fine, I'm comin'. Fine.

Get out.

Are you finished?

To numb the area.

Hold still, please.

This is your new home.

You have a bed, safe, closet.

You will make $ , a night.

If you make eight, good for you.

If you make four, we have a problem.

[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]

Warwick Detention is

the sole private penial
institution in Kingstown.

Warwick Group has run it since ,

and it is the only prison that
saw no v*olence during the riot.

It's easy to see no v*olence
when you have no yard time,

no education service, no
cafeteria, no commissary...

Sounds like you're describing
Tent City, Mr. Moore.

How's that no v*olence workin' out?

It's a unique situation.

Well, in the next three years,

Kingstown will be
repaired and retrofitted.

In the next five years,
every prison in Kingstown

will be contracted to the Warwick Group.

She's out of her f*ckin'
mind. That'll never happen.

It is happening, Mike. That's
why I wanted you to come.

They're still debating in Lansing.

Right?

Report on the riot's not even out.

Warwick's doing the report.
You should get to know them.

Are we boring you back there?

No, it's great. f*ckin' interesting.

Tent City is temporary.

And Warwick is a permanent solution.

So we're gonna bring
some of your inmates

to Anchor Bay in the next week,

and the rest of the
overflow will come here.

You're overbooked already.

Well, we know how to warehouse.

We have facilities in other
counties, other states...

She's like a f*ckin' real estate agent.

This is f*ckin' ridiculous.
Look at these guys.

Look like they're on f*ckin' safari.

f*ck me.

[MUSIC]

First day back is fun, yeah?

Like riding a bicycle,
but the pay's better.

I'm Tati.

You have a problem with the other girls,

you come to me.

You need anything...

Let me know.

You did good already.

You're going to do fine.

Baby.

Does Milo come by?

Who?

We're gonna do this?

He does not.

Well, can I go to him?

When he calls.

You got sh*t on you, Tati?

What kinda sh*t?

The kinda sh*t that
makes today feel like

I'm hopin' tomorrow might.

Hope is good.

Hope dies, we die.

[PHONE RINGING]

Yeah.

How bad?

And you're tellin' me now?

Fine, I'm on my way.

Bad news?

I know you?

I know where she is.

She's trouble.

She won't perform, and
she'll be punished for it,

or she'll perform to punish herself.

She with Milo?

Milo's dead, I think.

Your people k*lled him.

Good talkin' to you. I got sh*t to do.

You wanna put on
a cape and save this girl,

I can leave a door open for you.

In the alley at the club.

What are you looking for, Mike?

You know I'm lookin' for
a lot of things, Joseph.

And let's just save that
sh*t for another day.

- What do you say?
- You might not have another day.

None of what you're looking for is here.

Your girlfriend is
probably dead by a dumpster

with a f*cking needle
hanging out of her arm.

Or in a rich man's bed.

That your baby?

That baby is none of
your f*cking business.

Then maybe you don't
want to send the mother

to do your damn job.

Does Milo know that
you're back on the town?

You're a funny guy, Mike.

f*ck off, put it down.

Tell your f*ckin' boss
that I know he's out...

And I'm gonna find him.

Don't bother! f*ckin' assholes.

Jesus, what the f*ck happened to you?

Jesus f*ckin' Christ, Bunny.

Looks like the plan's workin', huh?

I got no humor, Mike. Not...

Not a f*ckin' lick.

You thought I wasn't gon' hear?

Huh?

They raid my home, they
terrorize my family,

and you don't tell me.

I didn't know about it, Bunny.

f*ck you didn't know, Mike?

You need to know. You needed me.

You too chicken sh*t to talk straight.

I thought we was past that.

Let's not make this
about friends, all right?

We're not friends.

Yeah, that's for damn sure.

This will break down, Mike.

Might not be no comin'
back from this sh*t.

Get me the f*ck outta here,

or there's gonna be some payback.

And no, I don't mean no
f*ckin' guards on the inside.

Or them cops on the
street. Nuh-uh, nuh-uh.

This sh*t's gonna hit close to home.

All right, come on. Let's not go there.

You already f*ckin' did, Mike.

You have to understand this is not me.

It was f*cking KPD.

What good are you, Mike?

You can't even control your own people.

This wasn't supposed to
happen, you understand me?

I done my piece. All right?

You got hours. Get my
ass back on the street.

I'm workin' on mine.

You know my sh*t damn
near f*cking ended today?

Get me the f*ck outta here, Mike.

I'll make it happen.

You can't protect me.

My people, nah.

So I gotta do it.

Get me the f*ck outta here.

You owe me that.

You f*cking owe me, Mike.

Nobody touches f*cking Bunny.

Okay, I want you to make it
your personal f*ckin' mission.

He is the biggest swingin'
d*ck on this yard, Mike.

He's an ally and he
made good on his end.

Okay, so whatever the
f*ck happens to him now...

happens to you.

Understand?

He gets hurt, you're gonna get hurt.

He bleeds, you bleed.

Yeah.

MIKE: This motherfuckin'...

Next time on Mayor of Kingstown...

MIKE: You made deals
with Bunny Washington

and the other generals.

Deals with my name
in your f*cking mouth.

They movin' people, Mike.

MIKE: I'm getting you the f*ck out.

You have my word.

You're losin' your f*cking mojo!

Lady said her husband
dug up a box of these

at his worksite.

You just found this?

Milo's gonna come
lookin' for what's his.

Are you gonna be a
problem in our clan, Iris?

You're lookin' to burn
this whole house down.

Tell your boy to do his f*ckin' job.

They comin' for you.

There's gonna be some payback.
