Place is closed.

I said we're closed.

I should've locked up.

Nice to see you, Lou.

I'm looking for Miles.

Well, I haven't seen him.

I got an important message

from his mother.

Well, I still haven't seen him.

Quiet.

Damn, you're good.

You are good.

Good morning. Listen up.

Word is that Jean LaFleur is bringing

a shipment of heroin through town.

They want him in San Diego.

SDPD's done an excellent job...

...shutting down the harbor

and the airports on him.

Detective Malone just transferred.

He'll head our Burglary division.

Detective...

...tell us a little about your plans.

Well, I plan to fight crime.

You know, sh*t like that.

Great, then.

Does anybody have any questions

for Malone?

Yeah, I got a question.

What do you think about the P-31?

P-31.

What do you think?

It's a piece of sh*t.

What I mean is, we've all been having

problems with the P-31, right?

I'm just wondering what the new lead

detective here plans to do about it.

Well, all right.

Well, Diaz, is it? Diaz?

What do you think we should do

about it, Diaz?

I think we should scrap it.

How many people think

we should scrap the P-31?

There it is.

Scrapped. Why?

Because you want it scrapped.

It's out of there. P-31, out of there.

No more. Gone.

You want 31 flavors?

Baskin-Robbins is

where you wanna be. Be cool.

That's my partner.

Detective.

What is it?

I'd like to work with a P-40.

Yeah, the P-40's good.

P-40 it is!

What's he doing?

We just got those things.

He's shaking things up.

Maybe that's exactly what we need.

I'm not a cop.

This Tulley a**hole

wants to talk to you.

He's down in Interrogation.

Right away. I'll talk with him.

Interrogation's this way.

Knew that. Is he running his mouth?

Tulley says he has information

about another robbery.

But he'll only talk

to the officer who arrested him.

I'll talk to him. Alone.

We'll be watching.

What's going on? You said

I'd spend one night in jail.

What do you wanna tell me?

What is it?

You said I'd only spend

one night in jail.

It's only been one night.

Well, where's my 50 grand?

I said 20 grand.

Well, maybe it's 50 now! Because...

Detectives, I've been assigned

to Mr. Tulley.

Well, great. That's him.

Oh, my God! What in the world?

- Help me!

- What's going on?

Help!

What is this?

Oh, my God!

Take your hands off my client!

It's no use. He ain't talking!

You have your hand over his mouth!

I think we accomplished

enough for one day.

This guy said he has information

on another case.

I wanna know, are you jerking

our chain or not?

I'm not jerking your chain, fella.

This guy Logan owes me

If I don't get it soon...

...I'm talking!

Who's Logan?

And what do you know about him?

All I can tell you, sir,

is that he's gay, gay, gay!

I've had enough of this!

You certainly have. Come with me.

You'll be hearing from my office!

- He made me bite my tongue.

- Come here.

He hit me here.

Next time use a phone book on him.

And they took my shoelace.

Hearing from your office!

Look how she's all over him.

And then he said I was ugly

and I couldn't read good.

Hey, man. What's up?

Some guy's been calling for you.

- Who was it?

- Said he's your old partner.

He hopes you found what you're looking

for. Your health benefits expire soon.

Whatever the hell

that's supposed to mean.

Sh*t!

Bingo!

What is it with you

and the heating ducts, sir?

Cold. You don't feel that?

Very cold.

But I'm busy. What is it you want?

I just tried to pull up your records.

I couldn't find any Malone.

Oh, that's probably because

it was spelled...

When I put the name in the list...

The badge number doesn't exist.

Let me talk to you.

- I wanna find out what's going on.

- You're gonna find out.

Now, look.

What I'm about to tell you

is classified.

You tell anyone, I will bust

your ass down to parade detail.

I've been on that detail.

That's permanent horseshit patrol.

This place is a cesspool. But listen.

I'm not from West Covina.

I'm from Internal Affairs.

Oh, man!

All right? This place is a cesspool.

- I can't believe I didn't notice!

- It is!

I mean, it doesn't seem like a cesspool.

Believe it, man! There's a lot

of dirty sh*t going on here!

That's why they sent me here.

I'm the supercop.

They said, "Go, investigate.

Do what you do.

Find another supercop.

Y'all supercop up as a team,

and crack down the sh*t. "

"Crack it down. "

That's what I'm here to do.

Are we the only guys that know about it?

We're in the sh*t now!

You are a good cop, Carlson.

But damn it, man,

you just dug too deep.

What do you want me to do?

Good thing you asked.

Keep your eyes open. Okay?

I need you to be here.

And watch my back. Watch my back.

Got it, sir. I'm out of here.

The other way. Go back.

Sh*t!

Evidence room.

Sh*t!

There you are. I just got a call.

at the airport.

Go ahead. I'll catch up.

Bullshit! Someone just stole

a museum exhibit from a cargo hold.

That's my problem?

You're lead detective.

Get out there now!

The FBI and Customs Service

is already on the case.

- Why are you standing here?

- They won't let me in.

Feds are all over it.

That's bullshit!

These boxes contained

an entire Egyptian temple.

Excuse me, here.

Let me see this. Man!

And who are you?

Malone. LAPD.

Agent Gray. FBI.

We'll let you boys in

after we're done.

Look at all this stuff.

Look. They nearly destroyed all this

stuff and they didn't take none of it.

Look, Officer Malone.

Detective.

You know, you're out of your

jurisdiction and you're over your head.

I'm over my head?

No, I'm over your head...

...because your head's up your ass.

You're interfering with

a federal investigation, officer.

Now, if you and your bunch

wanna feel important...

...you can help secure

the outer perimeter.

Are we clear?

We clear.

And please...

...tell your men not to touch

anything on their way out.

- It's like that?

- Yeah, it's like that.

"Head up your ass. "

That was great.

I couldn't believe you said that.

He called me "officer. "

I'm lead detective.

I have 16 citations.

You think that comes easy?

Come on. The guy's nothing

but an FBI a**hole.

He thinks we're good for nothing

but sucking down doughnuts.

Let them chase their own

goddamn temple.

They weren't looking for no temple.

They were looking for drugs.

Yes, drugs.

It's the oldest trick in the book.

You smuggle it in...

...boost it before it hits customs,

right? Make it look like a heist.

That's how all the big boys do it.

All they have to do is

look for a truck with a "B" on it.

What do you mean, "B"?

"Bonded. "

Bonded trucks can get

into bonded warehouses.

Let me ask you:

How do you know all this stuff?

Did a little work in bonded warehouses.

All right. So what are we waiting for?

Let's do something, all right?

Come on. Call in air support.

Dispatch, this is 37-King-5...

...put me through

to South Bay air support.

10-12. I've got a white panel truck...

... B-961, southbound on Wheeler
