So, when the tire tracks of a police car are found at a murder scene, she's the prime suspect of internal affairs investigator Simon Hertzel. Chris and Nora start an affair, but meanwhile he has suspicions about her. Should he start his own investigation, which would be an act of betrayal, or trust her, as his partner and his lover?

Attention, units. We got a report

of a homicide at a basketball court: 1-8-7.

All units in the vicinity, please respond.

Again, we've got a report of a homicide,

City Rider basketball court.

1-8-7:
possible homicide. Please respond.

Hi. What's so urgent?

-What's so urgent?

-Remember? That's the word you used.

Yeah. Hi.

Yeah?

You wanna start out like that?

Wait a minute. What is this?

This is our....

Doesn't this place bring back any....

Doesn't it conjure up any....

No. What is this about, Luke?

-That guy.

-What guy?

That guy, what's his name...

...the basketball player.

-His name's Dean.

-Right, it was. Dean.

What do you mean "was"?

He's dead.

You didn't know that?

You didn't hear it on the news?

No.

You know what fascinates me?

It's very interesting to me.

There's this guy. This weak,

greedy, f***ing corrupt a**hole...

...that you fall for, that you leave me for.

You get all crazy about him.

Then I tell you he's dead...

...and you have less of a reaction than

if I told you a squirrel was hit by a van.

-You know about this?

-No, I don't.

Don't lie,

'cause I can tell when you're lying.

How was he killed?

-I didn't say he was killed.

-Yeah, you did.

I said he was dead.

I never said he was killed.

It's the way you were saying it.

You're lying to me.

You know about this, don't you?

I never said he was killed.

I said he was dead.

-Did you have something to do with it?

-No. Did you?

No. I can't believe we're having

this conversation.

I wish we could get together

and talk about us.

How was he killed?

He was shot in front of his locker.

'cause he was a weak, greedy...

...bribe-taking motherf***er. That's why.

-How would you know that?

-How would I know that?

There's stuff I know that you don't know.

-What's your name?

-What?

After you became a detective,

did you change your name?

-Yeah.

-To what name?

-To what name?

-Mark Clear.

-You f***ing Rich Bower?

-F*** you!

-You're f***ing Bower, right?

-F*** you!

Let me get this straight. Dean told you...

...then you told Rich 'cause it turned

you off that Dean would be so weak...

...to actually open up to you.

Like when I left, you considered it weak...

...that I'd do something to change my life.

To actually turn my life around.

That's weak!

You're so f***ing twisted.

Don't you get it?

God! You haven't changed.

You're the same guy,

except now you're hiding behind a badge.

So when are you gonna come back to me?

Why is that so crazy?

In local news, the killer of City Rider

Dean Carter is still at large.

Police continue to investigate

this tragic shooting.

Carter was found dead

outside his locker room...

...a gunshot wound to the chest.

If you have any information,

please call our crime watch hotline.

555-1234.

And now, for the weather.

Once again, it will be mild tonight

with temperatures in the 50s.

Did you know I got locked up in Memphis?

-What the f*** were you doing?

-Being black.

You're right.

In the South, you've gotta figure

what time it is and where you're at.

I was in the middle of the street

signing autographs.

N*gger pulled up, pulls me over to the side.

Came back and just maced me

over the top.

Maced me right in my eyes.

Sh*t was burning, face on fire.

And they locked me up after that.

It was bad though.

You got up out of that sh*t.

Then I served my night,

went to see the judge.

A night for what?

A night for obstruction of traffic

and motherfucking resisting arrest.

It was bad,

but they did it because I was black.

That's where Martin Luther King got killed.

Loving you, biting the ear and sh*t.

My nigga.

Look what you did.

My niggas burning each other up,

dropping sh*t on my rug.
