[Tariq] Everything's taken care of.
Thank you, Tariq.
You know I'll do anything for you and that baby.
- I told you to handle it. - Fuck this.
Fuck you. Get the fuck down there.
- Wait! Please don't. - [yelling]
Tariq killed Zion?
How the fuck would you know that?
I cleared the server. That's the only copy.
I'll hold on to this. You go home.
[grunting]
You get me the leverage I need to go against Noma,
and maybe I change this murder to a fucking accident.
An accident?
- I know. - What the fuck really happened?
Tariq St. Patrick and Monet Tejada
said you're after me.
[Noma] Common enemy.
Why not common goal?
[gunshot]
You sure this is the guy who killed Kamaal?
Run ballistics on this gun.
We find the match that killed Kamaal,
and then we get Tate off our asses.
- Now you good with that? - Yeah, I'm good with that.
[Tasha] I need you to show me
that you can do better than your parents.
I just want us to be together again.
I ain't forget the promise I made to you, ma.

[officer] I'm sorry for your loss.
Did you see who shot Monet?
No.
[officer #2] Guests told me Monet wasn't at the ceremony.
When did she get here?
I don't- I don't know.
[Nico] So your bride ditches you and then disappears.
- And you don't know why? - Yeah, you heard me.
I said I didn't see anything.
We just found the body lying there.
[Nico] Can you think of any reason
why someone would want to hurt Monet?
- Nah. - That's surprising,
since she's been accused of being
a murderous drug dealer who had that shit comin'.
What the fuck you say?
How about y'all stop treatin' us
like we're fuckin' criminals
and find out who killed my mother.
Huh?
[shouting] Do your fuckin' jobs!
It doesn't seem like you're fuckin' helpin' me, B.
[ Brayden] Okay, well, if he arrested you,
it would have been over. I had to think fast.
Tariq, how are you gonna get out of this one, brother?
- Shut the fuck up. - This is you thinking?
[Carter] Tariq.
I didn't see you come up with a fucking plan, now, did I?
Yeah, well, my plan is to dust this motherfucker off the board.
Tariq, hold the fuck on. Tariq!
Okay brother, you gotta think about this now.
You kill me and my video of you and fuck boy killin' Zion,
Well, that goes public, and your life is over.
You keep me here,
and the entire NYPD will not stop
until they fuckin' find you. It's just a matter of time.
Either way, you're fucked.
So I'm gonna ask you again.
What the fuck are you gonna do?
- [tense music playing] - [cell phone buzzing]
- Attaboy. - [cell phone buzzing]
[Brayden] The fuck are you going?
[cell phone buzzing]
Yo.
Davis, we're fucked.
Carter has a video of me and Brayden killin' Zion.
Well, it gets fucking worse.
- Monet's dead. - What?
What the fuck are you talkin' about?
Hell no, that's not possible.
Well, her body's in the morgue full of bullet holes.
So I say it's real fucking possible.
And Noma managed to slip through the Tejada's fingers.
My money's on she did it.
Fuck.
So I'm just stuck here with Carter
until I figure some shit out.
Carter has something on you.
Then you need to get something on him.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Level the playing field.
Exactly.
No way a cop that dirty doesn't have skeletons in his closet.
[Tariq] A'ight. I'll call you back.
Wait. Hey.
Be careful, okay?
We can't afford another fuck up.
[exhales sharply] Yo, Effie, B.
- [Carter] Talk to him, Brayden. - Shut the fuck up!
Shit is getting worse.
Monet is fuckin' dead, y'all.
- What? - Yeah.
- How? - Got shot.
Davis sayin' Noma did it and got away.
Fuck.
Seemed like she was bulletproof.
Cane and the Tejadas are probably so fucked up right now.
Fuck Cane and the Tejadas.
Noma's comin' for us. You know that, right?
Either way, we need to do somethin' all right?
We have his key.
That means we need to get in his house,
get that video and destroy it. Then we could kill him.
If we don't get that video, we gotta...
we gotta come up with some other dirt on the motherfucker's name.
Fuck.
[keys clatter]
[Cane exhales sharply]
[Cane] Fu-
I can't believe she's gone.
Shit don't feel real.
Monet held us out our whole lives.
What are we supposed to do without her?
I don't know.
I mean, ain't this is what y'all wanted?
Nigga, what the fuck are you talkin' about?
You know what I'm talkin' about.
Y'all went in there to kill Noma behind my back.
What the fuck was y'all thinkin'?
What were we thinkin'?
Cane, we did it to save our family.
What fuckin' family?
Every time y'all do some shit and leave me out,
it gets fucked up.
You left yourself out
when you decided to go play house with Noma.
Oh, I know you ain't talkin'.
Ma had to beg me not to kill you after what you did.
For all I know, this shit tonight
was you two tryin' to finish what you started.
Y'all probably sent Monet in there to die.
You know, we went in there lookin' for you.
What the fuck happened Cane, hmm?
How is it that Monet is dead
and you're sittin' here right in front of me?
- Dru, stop! - No, no, no, fuck that shit.
Monet is dead,
because she went in tryin' to save you.
So Monet is dead, because of you!
[Cane exhales sharply]
She should have just let me go.
Monet would never give up on you like that.
You know that.
Ma told me not to trust that bitch.
Maybe I could have stopped her.
Maybe it is my fault that mom is dead.
[quietly] Fuck.
Noma killed Monet, period.
And Ma wouldn't want us arguin' like this.
We are all we have left.
What's in the past is the past. Let that shit go.
We decide what happens next.
So let's finish what we started.
We track Noma down and we kill that bitch.
Hey, Tariq, let me ask you a question, man.
Um, how do you- how do you do it?
How do you get your friends
wrapped so tight around your little finger that they, uh,
well, they willin' to lose their lives for you?
Hmm?
And how do you live with the fact that
everybody you know ends up dead?
Shut the fuck up!
[Carter sighs]
Hey, listen, I'm gonna do you a favor, all right?
These cuffs, they got my shoulder's feelin' mad tight,
so why don't you come over here, work out some of these knots,
and I'll think about droppin'
that first degree murder charge down to a second.
I mean, maybe, just maybe,
that way you'll get out of prison
with enough time to have your own babies to disappoint.
Shut your motherfuckin' mouth!
Ah, Diana's baby was your baby.
I thought it might be.
I wasn't sure.
I'm sorry for your loss, brother.
Then again, the life you lead means constant loss.
So, you got to know that by now, right?
[Carter chuckles]
By the way, how's your mother?
- Shut your fuckin' mouth! - Oh, oh fuck.
Oh.
[typing on keyboard]
Yo, I think Carter's,
like, obsessed with his dead wife or something.
[dramatic music playing]
Yo, you think he wears her clothes on the weekends
- on like, some psycho shit? - Oh, shit.
- [Effie] I found it. - [Brayden] You did?
Oh, fuck.
Look at this.
Oh, fuck.
- Can- can you delete this? - I don't think so.
Carter has access to his work computer from home,
- but it's read only. - So we can't get rid of it?
Not unless you have someone on the inside.
It's the only way.
Fuck.
Well, unless having a creepy ass shrine
dedicated to your dead wife is a crime,
we don't have shit.
Wait.
This is everything that Carter looks at, at work
and all the files he accesses.
But for some reason, he keeps going back to this one file.
[Brayden] Holy shit, Kamaal Tate.
That's Rashad Tate's brother. The cop that was killed.
[Effie] This doesn't make any sense.
The official investigation was closed
when they determined it was a Russian hit.
Like some retaliation for that warehouse raid.
But, that isn't right because I was there.
They wiped the Russians, so they ran.
They weren't lookin' for some fucking cop to kill.
Okay, but cops lie. What the fuck else is new?
Can we prove it?
Carter signed off on this himself.
It's not much, but...
- It's all we really got. - Right.
Shit.
[cell phone ringing]
Yo!
Please tell me you deleted that fucking video.
Carter's got it on a computer at his office.
There's no way to delete it from here.
Fuck.
[Brayden] But I think we got something else we could use.
[metal chair dragging on concrete]
Let me guess, no luck.
[Tariq sighs]
I wonder if- if your wife knew that she married a killer.
What the fuck'd you say?
I mean, Denise.
Did she know the truth?
The truth?
Yeah.
The truth that you're a fuckin' psychopath with a badge.
I mean, did Denise ever see the real you, my guy? Like-
- Shut up, shut up. - Is that why she's gone?
Is that why she died?
Don't fuckin' say her name again.
Look, how many innocent people lost their fuckin' lives
because you had to cover your ass,
Hm?
Does it really make you feel powerful
that you got Diana beat so fuckin' bad
that she lost her baby, man.
That was your baby.
And on the bright side,
we spared the world of another degenerate criminal.
[grunting]
[groaning]
Fuck.
[groaning]
Mm.
Too soon?
You seem to forget,
that I'm the one that helped you clean up Diana's mess.
Because I see the bigger fucking picture, Tariq.
Nigga, you covered that Felicia shit
to cover your own fuckin' ass.
Yeah, I'm sure that wasn't the first time, either.
Kamaal Tate, he was on your task force, right?
One day he's alive, next day he's gone.
What happened?
Oh, he must have found out your little secret, right?
The Russians did that.
Just like they did me and Monet, right?
God damn.
Denise really did marry a cop killer.
Fuck you.
That shit crazy Detective Carter.
[Carter exhaling]
Noma.
Any word?
The police have questioned
the man we have stationed at your home.
So far, you do not appear to be a suspect,
but you are wanted for questioning.
Well, I'm more concerned about those fucking Tejada children.
The look on Cane's face.
We have a flight scheduled for this afternoon,
but we need to leave now.
Okay, I have new passports for myself and Anya
at a safe deposit box that we can pick up on the way.
Let's be ready in five minutes.
- Noma. - What?
First Lombardi in Italy, and now this.
You are destroying everything our family built.
Father should have never brought you into this business.
Well, if you had the balls that I do,
maybe he wouldn't have needed me.
Don't fucking touch me! Don't fucking touch!
Mom, what the fuck is going on?
Sweetheart, we don't have time for this.
- We're going to Lagos and then- - Lagos?
- Yes. - Are you fucking kidding me?
I've never been to Nigeria.
My life is here.
And now we're in danger here, Anya.
What part of that don't you understand?
Any of it, Ma. I don't understand any of it.
And unless you start telling me the truth about what's going on,
I'm not going anywhere with you.
You've been lying to me my entire life.
To keep you safe, Anya.
Mom, the only one putting me in danger, is you.
And you know what makes it even worse?
Is you had the chance to tell me the truth,
but instead, you lied right to my fucking face.
It's not dad's drug business, is it?
It's yours.
Wait outside.
Listen to me.
Every choice I've ever made-
Oh my God. Okay.
Please, mom. Enough of the bullshit.
- Listen to me. - Can you just admit it, please?
Everything you do is to protect yourself.
Because, God forbid,
the world find out you were a fucking drug dealer.
I don't care about the world, Anya.
I care about you.
I was ten years old
when I learned of our family business.
A rival gang came into our home one day
when my father was away.
I didn't know what was happening.
Chinedu took me by the hand and pulled me outside,
but not before I saw what they did to my mother.
As I got older,
I vowed to never be in a position so vulnerable again.
And anybody who stood in my way,
would come to know the same pain that I knew.
But I never wanted that for you, Anya.
I never wanted you to know
the- the kind of monsters that truly own this world.
- So you became one yourself? - I did what was necessary.
And was it necessary for dad to die,
because of your business?
Yes.
Your father died because he got in my way.
I didn't mean it like that.
No, I knew exactly what you meant.
- Anya, pl-- - Get the fuck away from me.
It should have been you that died.
Okay, take a moment.
Calm yourself down.
We'll talk about it when I return.
But when I get back, we're leaving here,
whether you like it or not.
I'll drag you out by the fucking ankles if I have to.
[dramatic music playing]
Yo! Shit.
B was right.
Carter did kill that cop, Tate.
Yeah, how do we make that work for us?
We can figure out how he covered his tracks.
Could use that.
Maybe it'll guarantee him not burning us.
I gotta meet with Davis, though.
Davis?
Does he know something we don't?
I mean, he could get us the records of the crime scene.
Who fucking knows how long that's gonna take?
Listen, that's Rashad Tate's brother.
You know how fast he wants to figure out
who the fuck killed him?
I mean, it's something.
Go.
We'll handle bad lieutenant over here, all right?
Yeah.

What we got?
A whole lot. Davis came through.
This look familiar?
Ballistic reports of every officer involved shooting
where you pulled the trigger.
Is that your plan?
To prove that I'm a cop who holds his own?
[Tariq chuckles]
No, more like prove that every single bullet you fired out
of your service weapon matches the ballistic evidence
from the Kamaal Tate crime scene.
But since the reports get delivered through you first,
you thought you could cover up the truth by making it seem
like the Russian's gun matched the Tate murder.
But you couldn't go back to your old files.
They're right there in black and white.
The ballistics match up. You pulled the fuckin' trigger.
Wait, so, so that means
that we also have the gun that you used to kill Tate,
right?
It's tough.
This whole time,

And then what Cane?
We've already blown our cover with Noma.
Even if Anya tells us where she is,
she's still gonna see us comin' now.
Y'all, maybe there's another way.
- [Dru] This shit better work. - [Diana] It will.
I'm sorry for your loss.

Monet was a real one.
[Cane] And we appreciate that.
But we gonna need y'all

I just need something in return.
See, I told you this motherfucker

Cane, just hear him out.
Look, Monet will always have my respect,

But that don't change the fact

A'ight.

He got us on video Killin' Zion.

- Tariq, I am so sorry. - It's all good.
You know, I bought us some time, though.
[Tariq] We just need someone to get into the station
and delete the video.
Think you could use your access to Carter
to get into his office.
Maybe.
But how am I supposed to delete the video from the database?
Thumb drive.
Put it in Carter's computer,
you run the program, it'll wipe everything.
He wouldn't even know.
What y'all think?
It's a means to an end.
I'll do this.
You better make sure Anya talks.
Definitely.

how to revenge better? Well, lesson fucking learned.
So you fuckin' kill her? You kill her?
Well, until it's your mother that you gotta bury,
I don't give a fuck what you think.
[Cane] Listen,
that don't change the fact that Noma got away, all right?
That was our last fuckin' chance to get her.
No, it wasn't.
Now she wants revenge. We can use that.
That bitch ain't goin' nowhere.
How'd it go at Carter's office?
Computer is wiped.
Well, now that's a problem we could solve.
Here y'all go with this Carter shit again?
How many fuckin' times I gotta say,
I don't give a fuck about no dirty cop.
As long as Noma's still breathin'.
Chill the fuck out.
Carter's hands are just as dirty as Noma's, okay?
He tried to kill Monet, too, and we barely stopped that shit.
Fuck this.
Listen, I held up my side of the bargain.
I led y'all niggas to Noma. Y'all failing is not on me.
But look, I have an advantage on Carter right now,
and I need to fuckin' make a move
before it's too late.
[Effie] Wait.
[Cane sighs]
I know you're fucked up.
Yeah, I'll feel a lot better when this bitch is fuckin' dead.
You can't run off getting yourself killed
trying to do this on your own, Cane.
What difference does it make?
Until this bitch is in the ground,
nothing or no one else matters to me.
You don't mean that.
I know you got an idea what his next move is.
Talk to me, please.
He wants me to prove my loyalty to him
by setting you up to die.
Maybe we could use that.
Yeah, you think you could set up a meeting with Nico for me?
Nico trusts me even less.
Fuck. I'll try.
[Tariq] Bet.
Hey, yo. Hold on.
[Tariq] Hey! Yo, Effie!
[Tariq] Effie, hold on.
We need you for this.
No, I'm not doin' that shit.
What the fuck do you mean, you're not doin' this shit?
I mean, I'm not doing it.
Always trying to kill somebody new.
Making all these crazy enemies.
It never fucking ends.
Okay, well just remember, Carter knows about you, too.
So, this affects all of us.
Yeah, I'll take my chances.
Thinking about me now. I can't do this.
Everything okay?
You already asked me that. What- what is it?
Dru came through after all. He's settin' Tariq up,
but he's leaving it up to you to take the kill shot.
He sent me an address. You wan't back up?
Nah, I got it.
[Dru] All right, so I do this for you,
you gonna show me where Noma is, right?
Where's Tariq?
I don't know, man. He was fuckin' right here.
Is this your little fuckin' trap Dru?
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
One step ahead of you, my nigga.
Are you out of your fucking mind?
You know what I have on you.
Had, you mean?
That shit is gone now.
I deleted it from the computer myself.
Meaning you got nothin' left to threaten us with.
Shut up 'fore I slap the shit out of you.
My task force knows I'm here, All right?
They know I'm huntin' you. Okay?
No matter how you look at it,
you don't walk away from this baby.
Your task force is fuckin' done.
Oh.
We came to make you an offer, though.
- I'm listening. - And if you cooperate,
Mhm.
that evidence of you killin' Kamaal Tate, we destroy it.
You'll walk free, but after that
it has to be understood that we fuckin' own you.
[Carter chuckling]
You fuckin' kids. Yeah.
Okay.
The only piece of evidence that can prove
that I had anything to do with that, was a bullet.
I already took care of it, all right?
So, you're too late.
You took care of it?
'Cause this looks a lot like that bullet, huh?
[Tariq] So let me ask you again.
And this time, I'll make the deal a little bit sweeter.
You do what the fuck I said,
we put all of this on Detective Nico.
- How about that? - How?
You say Nico went rogue.
That he was the one behind all this dirty task force shit.
If I say yes?
You pin the Tate murder on Nico,
and this all goes away.
You just gotta remember to stay in line.
Yeah.
Stayin' in line.
Ah! Fuckin' Nico.
All right, you give me the evidence,
I'll put the cuffs on Nico myself.
- [footsteps] - Carter!
The fuck are you doin'?
I'm takin' a fuckin' cop killer to jail.
Are you fuckin' serious?
You're fuckin' done for, Carter!
Ah, fuck!
You done fucked up. You know you fucked up, right?
You should wipe those fuckin' smiles off your faces.
What do you think you got, huh?
A bunch of drug dealers gonna arrest one of NYPD's finest.
Get the fuck out of here. I'm a fucking hero in this city.
I'll have each and every one of you motherfuckers in Rikers
by tonight with a carved spoon in your fucking neck
while the mayor's puttin' a fuckin' medal around mine.
This motherfucker! Do you know who the fuck I am?
Hm.
You were my brother.
You were my fuckin' brother.
We had a code.
Your fucking code!
And you broke it.
I would have followed you to hell.
We all would have, but you fuckin' betrayed us.
Kate.
Felicia.
You fucking betrayed me!
Nico,
you give 'em the bullet?
Huh?
That's what I thought.
You dug your own fuckin' grave.
You fuckin' did this.
Detective Carter, you are under arrest
for the murder of Officer Kamaal Tate.
Put your hands behind your back.
Don't fuck with me.
You know what it is.
Hands behind your back.
[menacing music playing]
[quietly] This ain't over.
No, unfortunately for you, it's definitely over.

[Diana] She is hurting right now.
We can use that against her.
Took care of Carter.
He'll be rottin' in fuckin' prison for the rest of his life.
That's it?
Snake is still breathin'?
Uh, prison is worse than death for a cop.
And discrediting him,
means that any evidence he had against us
is absolutely fucking useless.
- Any luck on your end? - We don't know where she is yet-
But we don't need to. Bring this bitch to us.
How?
A flight plan.
Anytime someone books Noma's jet,
she gets a notification for it.
She'll think we're gonna take it on the run.
So, set the trap and wait.
Okay. Okay, Cane.
Are you sure about this?
- It's just the three of us left. - We post up at the hangar.
As soon as she shows her face, we take the bitch out.
It's only one way in,
so we'll have the fuckin' advantage.
[cell phone chimes]
[Noma] Chinedu, they booked the jet.
[Chinedu] If you follow her,
you will be dead by tomorrow morning, I guarantee you.
What the hell are you doing?
- We are leaving. - We know where they are.
We need to get to the airport to cut them off.
Noma, listen to yourself.
This is clearly a trap. I can't let you go.
I don't need your permission. And I don't care if it's a trap.
We outgun them 5 to 1. That family should not get
the privilege to breathe another breath while Anya can't.
This crusade of yours,
has already cost the lives of too many of our people.
Before you started this war, we outnumbered them 10 to 1.
No, we are going to put an end to this.
I am not going with you.
And neither will our men.
- Fucking coward! - Ha.
Who the fuck do you think you are?
All of you, fucking cowards!

[Dru] Do y'all think she'll take the bait?
[Cane] Yeah, I know she will.
You good?
Yeah.
I'm just thinking Monet would be happy
we're back working together again as a family.
Mm.
Hey, what's the first thing you remember her saying
to you as a kid?
[chuckles]
Shut your ass up and quit cryin'.
- Ah. - [all laughing]
- Yeah, that sound like her. - Yeah.
Mm.
Yeah.
All right look,
don't shoot until we see Noma, all right?
I don't give a fuck who she's with,
- all guns on her first. - Bet.
[dramatic music playing]
- [sirens wailing] - What the fuck?
- Fuck. - She cannot get away with this.
Listen,
I'm proud of y'all, all right?
And I'm proud to be your brother.
But do what the cops say, and don't get yourself shot.
Cane, what the fuck are you talking about?
[officer shouting] Come out!
Come out now!
Fuck!
Cane, it's a one way trip.
Don't fuckin' do this, a'ight? We'll find another way.
Ain't no other way, all right.
Listen to me for once, please.
Don't get yourself shot. I gotta do this for ma.
All right? Family first.
[both] Family first.
[officer] Come out!
- Come out now! - [Dru] Okay, we're coming out.
We are unarmed. Don't shoot!

[Dru] Don't shoot! We are unarmed.
Don't shoot!

Noma turned informant to save herself.
And she thought she could use the Tejada's as scapegoats.
She was playing you.
[Davis] Noma was the real target of your investigation all along.
Dru and Diana Tejada, are innocent.
That still doesn't explain what they were doing
at the hangar.
Dru and Diana were only trying to defend themselves from Noma.
They feared for their lives.
[scoffs] That's bullshit.
[Davis] Uh, if I may.
I think you two are looking at this the wrong way.
You have a chance at redemption here.
Noma's the big fish you were chasing.
We can help you prove that.
In the end, it'll vindicate all your past work,
as well as put you back in the game.
And the Tejada's will testify to that,
if, you let them walk.
What about Tariq St. Patrick's part in this?
We don't have anything to offer you
regarding Mr. St. Patrick.
From what we can tell, Tariq wasn't involved.
So he just gets to walk?
What about Agent Young's murder?
Okay, now, see, that was Noma's hitter.
She hired him.
And you can find a paper trail
that leads directly back to her employee, Obi Okeke.
Likely why Obi fled the country.
Guys, we're giving you Noma on a silver platter.
She's your Queenpin.
And as a thank you, I expect you both to,
uh, withdraw your complaints to the bar.
I want my fucking license back.
Do we have an agreement?
What about Cane Tejada?
- Where is he? - We don't know.
Maclean and associates doesn't presently represent him.
[groaning]
Ah!
Oh, hey!
Easy.
Dr. Lee patched you up, but you still need real help,
so...
- You're lucky you're alive. - Yeah, well.
I'm just happy the bitch is dead.
But was it worth it?
Cane, your face is all over the news.
- Fuck it. - No, you don't get it.
I'll be fine.
Every cop in New York is outside looking for you right now.
You can never show your face here again.
Yeah, well, I'll figure it out.
Do you have somewhere to go?
'Cause you're gonna need money.
I said I'll figure it out!
I'm sorry.
Some money I've been saving for my co-term program.
Effie I can't take your money.
How the fuck else are you gonna get out of here, Cane?
[Cane sighs] Why are you doing this?
Why the fuck else?
You're like a little fuckin' charity case right now.

We'll rebuild the business.
