[pursuing a murder suspect, Pembleton and Bayliss search his car…and are surprised to find a trunkful of illicit drugs]
You're not Manuel Rendares, are you?
Bernard Weeks. How the hell did y'all get onto me? I was so damn careful. I've been moving this kind of weight for 5 years and not so much as a traffic stop. Y'all DEA, right?
No.
FBI, Customs?
Nope.
Local narcotics. How long you been onto me? 6 months? Longer? You had to be on me for about a year, year and a half, to roll up on me with this kinda weight.
Nah. We weren't looking for you.
Say what?
We're not local narcotics.
We're Baltimore Homicide. We're lookin' for someone else. This is just a…a mistake.
A mistake?
Yeah.
You roll up on me with 200 kilograms and it's a mistake?!
Well, you haven't by any chance killed anybody in Baltimore lately, have you?
No way.
[exasperated] We just wasted another day.
[stunned] A mistake?
Yeah. Sorry. Get him outta here.
