Police! Is anybody in here?!

As cops become more experienced,

their confidence inevitably grows.

Confidence can lead them to take more risk.

That's when they're in real danger.

Geez, Sherman, more teenage girls need tuning up?

Heavy bag -- I got a little carried away.

Yeah, been there.

Me, I start thinking about my ex-wife,

and everything goes blank.

Next thing I know, my hands are pulp.

That's funny.

Ronnie surface?

He's not gonna show his face anytime soon.

You better hope not.

The line is ready.

Two rounds in four seconds,

one right, one left, one to target face.

Attention.

Got some good news this morning.

About the kid?

No. He's stable.

They won't tell me anything else.

I'm in band two for the sergeant's exam.

I got a real shot.

Good for you.

Load your final six. Thanks.

Guess KBD got the upper hand.

Only so much space on the wall before somebody's got to go.

KBD? Never even heard of them.

That's the point. Now you have.

Give any knucklehead enough ammo,

and eventually they'll hit something.

God-awful, even for gangsters.

First-time shooters maybe, first time out?

Got to give KBD points for style.

Street art.

M.

Basquiat, Keith Haring, Banksy -- now that's street art.

What time is it? Oh, boy.

Every time you ask me about the time,

the next thing out your mouth

has something to do with some food.

What you ate, what you're gonna eat,

what you shouldn't eat,

how you couldn't care less what it is -- you got to eat.

Eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat.

I have a doctor's appointment, and we just caught this case,

and I want to make sure I make it on time.

Everything all right?

Yeah, just a checkup. What, you don't get checkups?

Hell no, not once a month.

The time, please.

It's 9:40.

Thank you.

The problem with band two is it's full of ringers --

Alvarez, Dorn, Carliner, Gran, Hart, Fox.

Are you serious?

Don't do it.

Don't do it. Don't --

damn it.

Uh, what did I do?

License and registration please.

You were splitting lanes.

And, sir, you can't eat breakfast behind the wheel.

I'm late for work.

What am I supposed to do -- just pull over?

I'm also citing you for littering.

A banana?

That's right.

It's biodegradable!

So why don't I come on over to your house

and take a shit on your pillow?

Would that be okay, I mean, since it's biodegradable?

Yeah, listen.

Here. You know, I'm not the bad guy.

A banana?

Asshole with a small carbon footprint is still an asshole.

That's her right there.

Miss Salazar?

I'm Detective Adams.

This is my partner, Detective Robinson.

We're sorry for your loss.

We're here investigating Anthony's death.

Tony. Tony.

We think it was a rival gang -- KBD.

We don't anything about KBD,

so any information that you might have

would be very helpful.

Not today, okay? Leave her alone.

I'm sorry.

I know that you probably want payback for Tony.

If I was in your position, I would want the same.

But there are mothers and women on the other side, too.

And they'll be crying the same tears as you

if somebody else is shot.

I hope so.

Let us find them and put them in prison

so that they don't hurt anybody else.

A lifetime for my baby without a father.

I don't want them in prison. I want them dead.

Sorry. All right.

We're sorry.

Ronnie's not gonna show his face on the streets,

not after the beat down I gave him.

Just keep clocking every black Escalade you see.

You got a haircut.

Yeah. Hmm.

Do you like it?

No.

This the start of the comeback?

Is the, uh, divorcé makeover officially under way?

Y-you want some style tips?

Yeah, you know, we got to get --

get you out of that polyester and the, uh...

...the wranglers into something,

you know, the ladies might actually, uh, like.

So you're saying I should dress like you?

Well, now, let's -- let's not raise the bar that high.

But, um, you know, just whatever it takes

to get the, -- the next Mrs. Bryant.

Hopefully better than the first Mrs. Bryant.

Oh, yeah, I dress like you,

maybe I could have a threesome with some zoo animals.

Hey, at least, you'd be having sex.

You see this?

Unbelievable. That's a work ethic, huh?

Hey, Amber. All healed up?

My ass. I got four layers of makeup on.

My face is a rainbow.

How's your man, Ronnie?

Haven't seen him. He disappeared.

Crying shame.

Damn straight -- hurts business.

Can't charge as much out here alone.

Yeah, why don't you get off the streets, find a real job?

Doing what? Should I be a model?

Yeah, why not. Where are your people, Amber?

Texas -- Corpus Christi.

So why don't you go back there?

'Cause I got a life here.

Hey. Let me hold $40.

What?

Got to help me till I get set up.

You owe me.

If you go back to Texas, I'll give you $40.

Nice seeing you, Amber.

Hey!

KBD -- krazy but deadly.

El Rey is who you want.

He either killed Tony or knows who did it.

Thank you.

Don't come back no more, okay

I been craving a burger since last night.

Something bloody with cheese.

You know, when I'm off-duty on the westside,

they've got, um, Apple Pan, Father's Office.

This side of town, there's Cassell's.

There's... There's the Pantry.

Whatever you want.

That's a pretty nice car for the neighborhood.

Hey, you need help?

Hi. You need help?

No. No, no, thanks. Hello, officer.

Uh, AAA's on its way.

That's good.

I mean, you come all the way down here to score,

and then your Porsche breaks down.

I mean, dude, that's got to suck, right?

You at least get what you came for?

I don't --

No.

See, the correct answer to her question was "yes."

"Yes, I need help."

Cooper.

Get in the car, sir. Get back in your vehicle.

That's good.

I will.

Go on.

The kid's awake. Talking?

Must be.

F.I.D. wants us back in this afternoon.

Go back home.

You got to stop, man.

Huh?

You know what I'm talking about. You got to stop.

Counseling hookers, beating up pimps.

You think you're the first cop

who's ever become emotionally attached to a victim

or the only guy

that's ever taken matters into his own hands

and crossed the line?

I've been in your shoes, and I know where it leads.

Now please take my advice and stop.

A36 -- see the man victim of a battery

at the Hahn Recreation Area.

Suspect's still at the location.

Want to take it?

Tried to help her. You did your best.
