The shorty that k*lled my nephew?

I need him dead. Now.

We gon' have D-Mac
knock over the Nine-Sevens.

So all you gotta do is sell it to D-Mac.
He gets bodied.

Hell, n*gga, this sh*t might work.

Diamond, J., consider them
Nine-Seven n*gg*s hit hard.

Your boy did that sh*t.

Me and Jenard got these straps
from the Yardies

in the first f*ck' place.

And the second that you got
these g*ns with Jenard,

they became coalition property,

and I'm the motherfuckin' coalition!

Don't say no sh*t
you can't come back from.

- You wanna play wit' me?
- I got a girl.

I was gonna share.

- [GROANING]
- Okay.

Jenard!

You ungrateful piece of sh*t.

Your days in CBI are numbered.

Diamond and Jenard
planned to k*ll D-Mac.

You tried to k*ll
my f*ck' nephew, huh?

[OVERLAPPING SHOUTS]

- We coulda been partners!
- You out!

[GRUNTING]

But you dead now, puto!

Oh, God!

[MIGUEL] You run and tell Ortega
I'm sending him straight to hell!

I've compromised myself.

Is it Tommy Egan?

You played a good game, Egan.

Our business is finished.

I had to take care of something.

I wish I coulda handled it

I didn't have a f*ck' choice.

Mireya, you should know

that the feds is gonna be all up on us.

Don't worry, I got Jenny Su
at the ready.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I... I trust you.

Oh my God. Did this happen
during that thing you handled?

No. I got in a fight
with Diamond's b*tch a*s.

- What?
- Yeah. This m*therf*cker

thinks he can kick me
out of my own sh*t.

An empire that I built.

I will burn that motherfuckin'
coalition to the ground

before I let them take it from me.

Hm.

Tommy, look.

You gotta think this through. Okay?

- What?
- Don't burn it down.

Take it back.

You right.

You always surprise me.

You know what?

Maybe Miguel can help you.

Who was that? What's happening here?

It was a threat.

I'll be fine.

Streets is hot, though.

Where you gotta be at today?

I'm goin' to see my brother before work.

Okay, that's fine.

You should be safe there.

You still got that thing I gave you?

Yeah. It's over there.

All right, go grab it.
Put it in your purse.

[GRUNTS] Then we gotta bounce.

Tommy, listen to me.

If you're gonna get back out there,

you need to promise me something.

You're gonna promise me
you're gonna be smart.

It's not just us anymore.

I promise.

I already know my first move.

Okay.

Let's get outta here.

It wasn't easy finding nowhere

that Tommy ain't

I shoulda k*lled
that m*therf*cker Tommy.

He think that he can just do

whatever bullshit moves he wanna do

and it's not a problem.

But as soon as I make
some moves on my own,

now it's a issue.

You was right, J.

I let that white boy way too close.

[JENARD] Huh. Yeah, you did.

But you know he gon' be
a problem for us, right?

Yeah, he gon' make moves
to try to poach from us,

just like we did the Serbs.

How he gonna do that, though,
with no product?

n*gga, Che not gonna f*ck with him solo.

Yeah, if I know Tommy, he gon' try.

We gotta lock down the coalition.

I'ma start with the Assyrians.
You start with the RDs.

- And have Shanti roll wit' you.
- Why?

You don't trust me to handle my sh*t?

You said you still straight, right, J?

Yeah.

But-but Shanti, she keeps you focused.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. n*gga...

I keep me focused, okay?

I don't need no b*tch all in my sh*t.

We gotta show a united front

Did anybody follow you here?

A U.S. Attorney? Are you serious?

Get the f*ck outta here.

Some people is crazy.

- [CHE] Hmm.

You weren't very careful

when you got yourself thrown out of CBI.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Let's take it easy.

Now you're just one man
without an army or a coalition.

You had a lot of nerve
to request a meeting with me.

I don't do bodega business.

I make Amazon money.

As much as I miss a bodega,
I got Amazon money.

There's as much in that bag right there

as any deal I ever done with CBI.

[LAUGHS]

So you're telling me that

every cent of your own savings
isn't in that bag?

Hell no. There's plenty more
where that came from.

- [CHE] Hm.
- I always reinvest in myself.

I'm giving you 24 hours

to move all the product
that I'm selling you today.

Come back tomorrow
with the same amount and re-up

or we're done.

I told you.

- No bodega business.

You were smart enough
to bring the usual amount.

Now I need to know

that you can handle this volume
regularly.

Oh yeah. This? This ain't gonna
be no problem, jefe.

Can you do that?

Oh, I'm out of your little coalition.

Excuse me? And how the f*ck
you gon' do that without me?

Huh? You ain't get

Oh, I remember.

Do you gotta be so
f*cking disrespectful, Shanti?

we know how to forgive each other.

That's the motherfuckin' difference,

and that's what make us unstoppable.

I made it to the top without you, b*tch.

f*ck' sh*t outta here.

It's gon' be great to watch you fall.

I don't think I need to tell you all

that as long as
I am acting U.S. Attorney,

our top priority is getting
the b*stard that k*lled Stacy.

I want us to piece together
a detailed account

of Stacy's last 24 hours.

Everywhere she went,
all her communication.

DiFranco.

You'd be a tremendous help with that.

[DELGADO] It's gotta be
the Marquez cartel, right?

She named them publicly
for Claudia Flynn's m*rder.

No. This didn't have any of
the usual signs of a cartel hit.

He's right. It didn't look like cartel.

C-can I have a word, please?

Yeah. We're done here.

You need to focus
all your energy on Tommy Egan.

He k*lled her. I think he k*lled her.

Why? What do you know?

It's a hunch.

Bobby, I...

I can't imagine what
you're going through right now.

Really, I...

I think about my own wife, and...

Look, whatever it is
that's giving you this hunch,

please share it.

It'll stay in confidence.

But I need to know
so we can nail this f*ck.

Let's get Stacy the justice
she deserves, yeah?

I found this under her car this morning.

You removed evidence from a crime scene?

You said in confidence.

Yeah. Of course.

Go on.

[DARK, DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

There's only one number in it.

Look, I...

I have reason to believe
that Egan got to Stacy.

That he had something over her.

I don't know what she thought he had.

I don't know for how long.

But...

Whatever it is...

Vic Flynn was likely in the middle.

We need to bring him in.

Hey, listen, man.

You did the right thing, Bobby.

I'll authorize a field team.
