Detective, the owner of Pure Green Medicals is waiting for you.

Really? Plaing for the bad guys now?

At least it's for money. Olinsky would volunteer.

Bring me some edibles.

[Briggs is locked up in the "cage" while Voight and Halstead are on the outside interrogating him.]

Halstead

I'm gonna testify against you at your trial. I'm gonna make your life a living hell.

BBriggs

[pulls up his sleeve to reveal a gang tattoo] Inside a cage or on the street I'm doing time wherever I stand. I'll never rat. So how about you just get my jungle juice and baloney sandwich ready in my holding cell? [goads Halstead] You think you can manage that, pretty boy?

[to Briggs] That's kinda funny. The only reason I'm here is to keep him from getting to you. And I'm standing over here thinking what the hell I'd do to you if you'd talked to me like that. If there's one thing I hate, it's a hypocrite. [to Halstead] You've got five minutes.

Halstead

Yeah? What did you tell her?

You know, just That there is one thing that's really hard.

Halstead

What's that? [Lindsay looks away] Hey, you can tell me.

[sighs] It's just that, you know, when you work together all day and you got to be professional, and you can't tell him that you bought a new outfit and it's sitting in the apartment, still in the box.

Halstead

We didn't find any drugs or signs of "paraphenalia" in the car.

Para-pher-nalia. There's an R in there. A lot of people miss it.

Halstead

Okay, Hooked on Phonics. You want to step outside?

Let's go.

I've just been thinking, man. What am I gonna do? Join the academy? Be a 31-year-old rookie? Come on. Over there, I got stripes.

Halstead

Do you forget what it did to you? Depression? Can't sleep at night? You want that? You want to be You want to be calling me 3:00 in the morning? You can't sleep, you're popping pills?

I'll learn to deal with it, just like you did.

Halstead

Greg, you're in the middle of a war in Chicago. You want a war? You're right here, okay?

I'm just being honest, man. Here, there's just Just too much noise. You know, who's right and who's wrong? Over there in Afghanistan, I know that I'm the good guy and they're the bad guys.

[Lindsay breaks up an argument between Halstead and Mouse]

Listen. What you two went through and what you carry is real. And you know that if you ever need my help carrying it, you just have to ask me. Why are you not listening to him?

Halstead

Because going back is not the right move for him.

For you. Him going back is not the right move for you. But if it was if you were the one that wanted to go would you let anybody stand in your way?

OTOliver Tuxhorn

Your case against me is dead. You need to move on. Anything else?

Halstead

Oh, I got a couple things I could add. But I really don't feel like losing my job over a little turd like you.

Halstead

It's good to see you, Bunny.

Jay, nice to meet you formally.

So Jay and I are living together now.

Halstead

I've heard a lot of good things about you.

No, you haven't.

Okay. Let's just keep this short and sweet, even if we all have to fake it.

Sweetheart, I've been meaning to call you because... [looks at Halstead] Jay, would you mind? Could we just have one minute?

Halstead

Sure. [gets out of his seat but Lindsay grabs his arm]

No. [Halstead sits back down] What is wrong with you? What do you need? Do you need to borrow money? You can't just come have breakfast with my boyfriend and be nice and leave it at that?

We need to talk.

Then talk.
