All right, now you gotta blow during the that candle out, boy,
make sure you make a wish.
All right, all right.
There you go. First try.
15's a big year, Jordan.
Yeah, man, it's a powerful year.
You gotta do your thing in the classroom, on that court.
Always preaching.
Nah, that's advice.
Yeah, it's a big difference.
- Says you. - Vinessa.
- Ah, happy birthday, lil' dog. - Ooh, you know what I wanted.
- Yes, boy. - Oh, my God.
Look at this.
This number 8... it worked for Kobe a little bit.
It worked for me; it's definitely gonna work for you.
Thanks, bro.
Yo, um, I think Ruzek needs me
to do that undercover thing he got a bite on.
Oh, I'll go.
Uh, actually, you might have the wrong paint job.
Oh. Okay.
I can, um, stay here and help them eat cake.
Copy that. Hey, check this out.
I wanna send a toast to my little brother Jordan, okay?
Oh, yeah.
Let's make 15 the most powerful year ever.
- No doubt. - No doubt.
Aw, dude, I forgot to tell you,
I tried the barbecue sauce you sent me.
- It was good, right? - Come on, man.
Look, it's gonna be big someday,
I'm trying to tell you... just need to line up the financing.
I got your financing right here.
Speaking of which, why don't you show me a few stacks?
- Make me feel at ease. - You don't trust me?
I don't trust my own mama when it comes to
money and drugs and she's a damn saint.
All right, all right.
Look, I'm doing this for you, bro, but Kurtis don't play.
Like, not even a little bit.
Especially when white boys get involved.
Yeah, I picked up on that.
I thought he was all right the other night though.
No, he don't dig white people.
I'm telling you like it is, Billy,
so just show me what's in the bag, please.
- You know the drill. You know the drill. - Come on, man.
Oh, my goodness. I'm not holdin'.
I'm never holdin'.
I'm a broker, baby, like them dudes on Wall Street.
I set the deals up and get a little taste, that's it.
30K.
Yes, sir. As a reminder, you know I'm...
- $3,000. I remember. - Okay.
- We good? - Good.
- We good. - All right, I'll call Kurtis.
My man. Let's do this.
Englewood, Englewood.
Yeah, yeah, up to no good.
Come on, man. Come up with something new.
And that song ain't even talking about...
I know.
It's talking about a different Englewood.
So, this kid Kurtis is moving real weight?
He's more of an up-and-comer.
He's got a direct line to the Sinaloa cartel.
Hm.
It's not easy to get a kid from this neighborhood to flip.
Till he's staring down ten years at Stateville.
Got something to say now.
- 'Sup, Andre? - What's happening?
Good to see you.
What's up, big dog?
How you feeling, Billy?
I'm great. How you doing?
Hey.
Cell phones in the basket.
Have a seat, fellas.
So, the West Loop, huh?
It's a huge, untapped market.
Tons of rich white dudes looking to party.
The only problem is there's no quality product there.
What's Eddie's cut?
Three grand.
I forgot, uh...
How'd you two meet?
Ballet.
What?
Yeah, the spot with the disco balls and the dancer poles.
On 28th and Jefferson, you know?
Oh, that kind of ballet.
I was dating one of the ballerinas.
Yeah, me too.
Uh, sorta.
I had to pay her a little something-something
from time to time, but she was worth every penny.
- Yeah, she was a fox. - Yeah.
Well, I'm glad you two hit it off.
It's nice to see you again, Billy.
What happened?
I don't know. It felt good, and then bam,
he was out the door. Meeting over.
You think they made Kev?
Nah, I mean, I was staring at my cheeseburger the whole time.
Who knows, maybe he's just careful.
Hey, good news is Eddie's still on board.
He just texted me, wants me to swing by his house in a few hours.
Good, play it out. Kev, keep an eye on him.
Hey, man, don't push it. There's other dealers we can work with.
Not like Kurtis, there's not.
Oh, yeah? Why's he so special?
He likes killing as much as he likes dealing.
He enjoys it.
Eddie, where you at, man?
Call number three.
Listen, I'm getting a little nervous.
I don't know if you noticed I'm a preppy white dude
from the northern suburbs, so you need to hit me back.
I'm at your door.
Eddie?
Eddie. Hey!
- Kev, cover the front. - Copy that.
Kev, roll an ambo. Right now.
- Eddie? Eddie? - Copy.
Hey, what happened, man? Who did this?
Jesus. Eddie.
We're gonna stop the bleeding. You just hold on, man.
Eddie, listen, I'm sorry to tell you this, but I'm a cop.
I got help on the way right now, okay?
You just gotta stay strong.
No, Eddie, stop, man. Stop. Stop.
- You're a cop! You're a... - I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
You gotta talk to me. Tell me who did this.
Was it Kurtis?
What's...
Your real name?
It's Adam.
Adam Ruzek.
Hey, brother. Listen, look at me.
Who did it?
Tell me, was it Kurtis who did this?
- Was it Kurtis? - No.
I ain't going out like that,
Adam.
Like what, man? Hey.
Hey.
Like...
Like a snitch.
Nah, man, no, no, no.
Eddie, come on, man.
Eddie?
Come on, man!
- What do we got? - What's up?
Two to the chest. Nine millimeter.
The casings are right here.
- Find a gun? - Not yet.
You okay?
Yeah.
This was Kurtis or somebody that worked for him.
It had to be.
Well, now we follow the evidence.
Grab Upton and Halstead. Start knocking.
We need witnesses.
Yeah.
He was alive when I got here.
He was alive, right there.
I was trying to help him. Told him I was a cop.
The way he looked at me, man.
Pushed my hands away.
He knew why he got shot... 'cause I got made...
And he picked up the tab.
Hey.
I understand.
I get it, I mean, you really liked Eddie.
But this isn't on you, dog.
You didn't pull that trigger.
- All right? - Thanks, bro.
We'll get him.
I didn't see anything or hear anything.
You live across the street, 20 feet from his house.
I was watching TV, had the volume up.
Anything else?
You knew Eddie, right?
Yeah? Was he a good guy?
- Great guy. - Yeah?
Why not help us find the man who killed him?
Not my job.
Oh, you're okay with him getting killed?
Didn't say I was okay with it.
I said it's not my job.
There's a difference.
Not really.
I mean, you live right next door, right?
You didn't hear anything?
All right, hey, just tell us what you heard, please.
I didn't hear anything.
You didn't hear anything?
All right. Hey.
- Have you seen this guy? - No.
