When Sophia grows up I hope she's just like you, and not because you're a hottie.
A hottie?
Not because you're good looking, but because you're smart, you know what you want, and you know how to go after it. And you're a good mom because you taught Nicky to be the same way.
Okay, so you guys want to stop sugar coating it now?
Nobody's sugar coating it.
Really?
Yeah.
Because I don't hear anyone talking about the stinkers and the jumpers, the crack addicts and the child abusers. Not to mention the anti-cop sentiment that is your thank you these days.
I think you're taking this personally.
A flag just like that one draped your uncle's coffin. Yeah, it's personal.
I feel like such an idiot.
Then remember that feeling and learn from it.
This is my fault.
It’s not your fault.
It is my responsibility to keep my staff safe.
There was nothing you could have done!
Then why am I here?
I don’t envy you, dealing with that crew every day.
They grow on you.
Yeah, like a tumor. You think any of them are gonna come forward?
I’d be very surprised. They don’t trust cops.
We got that.
To be fair, the only time you guys show up is when someone gets shot or someone gets stabbed.
Not for nothing, but that’s kind of the job description.
It’s not an accusation, Detective. It’s reality.
Somehow, where the job used to seem noble, as a single parent now, it just kind of seems selfish.
The one thing I've learned is that life is beautiful, and it's sad but sometimes it's just practical. Money counts.
I know him.
You don't. Nobody knows anybody, Anthony. That's the one thing we all come to learn in this business.
He's a stand up guy, Erin.
Well, he wouldn't be the first stand up guy to fall down.
Can't we just be like a normal family and you guys just ask us about school or something?
Or talk about the good things that happened this week?
It's tradition.
Because there's almost nothing to learn from success. Failure, on the other hand, is the best teacher you'll ever have.
Do you believe him?
Yeah, I think I do.
That “think” kind of waters it down.
Erin's taking a look.
That's good.
I didn't ask her to over look, just look.
Something occurred to me today. You are the only member of this department to have presided over a line of duty death both as the commissioner and as a fallen officer's father.
Meaning?
That maybe you should hold off meeting with the mayor until...
Until I'm calm. That'll be never.
Amir's friend ID'd the shooter.
Yeah, but DeSilva was already in the back seat of the squad car when he was identified as the shooter.
So what?
So identifying him while he's in the backseat of a police car already handcuffed is suggestive. There's no way I can get a conviction.
It gets resolved the way most disputes do. Nobody gets everything they want.
Perps do. It's free money.
It's nickels on the dollar.
They're still free nickels.
