Law & Order: Organized Crime

In the nation's largest city,

the vicious and violent members of the underworld

are hunted by the detectives

of the Organized Crime Control Bureau.

These are their stories.

My father, he took a bullet to save another cop's life.

That's who he was.

So what's the Brotherhood? - We look after each other.

I want you to keep an eye on Van Aller.

Those two women that got gunned down the other night.

The lawyer and her client.

She found out about the Brotherhood.

Van Aller was scared out of his mind

that Donnelly would find out.

Derrick's my brother. He doesn't know I'm a cop.

When the operation is over, I plan to tell him.

The Albanians are gone. So are the Italians.

I've outmaneuvered, outplayed, outlasted

all my rivals.

But I can't shake this feeling

of betraying these people.

Tell me about this world of feeling for you.

What lives there? - My father.

Your dad and his partner, they get ambushed

by this hothead kid who's unarmed.

Your dad's partner shoots the kid.

- Dead? - Dead. Major screw up.

They gotta justify the shooting.

So your dad has his partner shoot him in the leg.

Got a damn Combat Cross.

- New ADA? - Keller Shapiro.

The district attorney's new handpicked new ankle biter.

Sergeant Bell.

Where's the proof that Frank Donnelly is running

a criminal enterprise out of the 3-7?

We're still building a case.

Everything's not buttoned up yet.

You got one dead cop who committed a murder.

Wrong, we do have a dead cop, whose name, by the way,

is Matthew van Aller, but he committed two murders

and tried to pin it on a member of the Marcy Killers,

which is actually what this taskforce is being tasked

with investigating, the Marcy Killers.

So why not investigate them

and leave your fellow cops alone?

IAB asked Detective Stabler to investigate

Donnelly and the Brotherhood.

Oh. That's who you are.

Then do this quietly, and do it fast.

I need solid proof-- - Counselor?

Thanks for dropping by, but like the sergeant said,

we're in the middle of compiling our documentation

to prove, in fact, that they are a gang.

But in the meantime, we'll just work quietly and quickly.

Get me audio and video.

I'm reluctant to put you on the stand.

They'd rip you apart after, uh, what's-his-name.

The man who murdered my wife?

What do you think? Wear a wire?

Absolutely not.

Donnelly's too savvy for that.

There is a better way at this,

but we only have one chance to get it right.

Flip someone.

Sweet ride.

Yeah, tricked out.

Solar battery, double-padded saddle,

custom pegs.

Ugh, you're making your "something is wrong" face.

What's wrong?

Well, now that you mention it,

would you mind digging into a cold case for me?

Say the word. What's the case?

My father, Joe Stabler, he received a Combat Cross.

Just, I wanna know about the circumstances

surrounding that scene.

Cold case with family resonance, I'm down.

Yeah. Thanks, I owe you.

Yeah. Hey, we should ride some time.

- It's on my bucket list. - You just said you owe me.

I told you, little king, you gotta trust me on this.

We move this key, next time we get three.

Damn, bro, what about the Marcy Killers?

Those clowns are done.

Webb's gone soft.

Old man's lost his grip. - Says that scar.

This is the best he can do?

We've got nothing to worry about.

You sure talk a lot, Chopper,

for someone who's got nothing to say.

I'm just trying to make it out there.

Same as you.

Your side hustle cutting into Marcy Killer business?

That's how you, uh, trying to make it?

This ain't gotta be a thing.

One of y'all ain't gonna make it out of here today.

Whoa, this ain't got nothing to do with me.

I know. I know. Just Chopper.

Get outta here, dude.

Now, I thought I'd made it clear with your second strike

that there wasn't gonna be a third.

Didn't I say that?

Huh?

You've really lost your mind, old man.

Hmm.

So listen, I got this CI up on Mother Gaston Boulevard.

Her boyfriend's a small-time pot dealer.

But apparently he hit the lottery

'cause he's waving all kinds of cash around the neighborhood.

So we gonna bust him or rob him?

We're gonna bust him then rob him.

Pot dealer? Is it worth it?

Forget about the pot, man. The cash.

It's free cash, baby. both: Cash is cash.

Now you're catching on.

Have you been checking in with the guys?

What with the Van Aller thing?

I'm a little worried about Carling.

Carling? No, no, no. Don't worry about Carling.

I'll tell you who you should be worried about.

Worry about Santos.

'Cause that guy, he's shaky.

So I want you to keep an eye on him, all right?

- - We have a 10-39- - P in progress

at 7537 Pitkin Avenue-- - Unbelievable.

Son of a bitch is at it again.

Unbelievable.

Uh, 2-4, we'll take that. You know the address?

Yeah, I know the address.

Mr. and Mrs. Oswald. Wait till you see the husband.

This guy's a piece of work.

Hang on.

NYPD, open up.

Mrs. Oswald, Detective Donnelly.

You remember me? - I didn't mean to call.

It was an accident.

Well, all the same, we'd like to take a look around.

Everything's fine, honestly.

I'm fine. You can go.

Step away from the door.

- It's okay, it's okay. - Ah!

Okay, okay, it's all right.

We're not gonna let anyone hurt you, okay?

Okay? - What's gonna happen to him?

We're gonna take him to the precinct

and book him this time, okay?

All right? Do you have somebody you can call?

You don't have to call anybody.

I'll be right back. - Don't count on it, dirtbag.

I'm gonna get you sent to urgent care, okay?

Have somebody look at those cuts and bruises.

And I'm gonna send a friend of mine over there.

Her name's Melinda. Okay?

She's a victim services advocate.

All right? - Mm-hmm.

Okay. So let's go sit down.

I'll call and make sure somebody is on their way.

So much for the Mother Gaston job, huh?

Hey, man. This is better.

Come on, let's go.

Dad.

Dinner's here.

Oh, good. Okay.

Is that Papa Joe's?

Yeah, I think so.

Let's eat.

You see all of this, Isaiah?

Huh?

The rewards of my blood, sweat, and tears.

I did what I had to do for my family.

I did it all for our family.

And I'd do it all again.

And when my body is gone,

our legacy will be lasting.

Well, in order for your legacy to be everything

that you just promised our grandson,

I'm gonna need your body here for a while longer.

We have work to do.

Is that what you've been eating

the whole time I was gone? Greasy takeout?

You know, hospital food's better than this crap.

Let me help you with that.

I can do it myself, please.

There, you see? Grandma's still got it.

How come we never talk about Papa Joe?

What's there to talk about?

Why don't we just have dinner?

What do you want to know, honey?

Just wanna know why we never talk about him.

Hey, Mama, what can we do as a family

to make your reentry a little smooth?

Uh, well, for one thing, you could not steal my meds.

Thank you for this food and for all the gifts

that you've given to those around this table.

In Jesus' name, amen.

all: Amen.

So in your sermon, you said that you came up in Brooklyn.

Do your folks still live there?

They passed away a while back.

Yeah, sadly the Rileys haven't been whole
