Brooklyn Tide Page #5

---

- Really, all I see is

one broken down FBI agent

who's way out of his league.

- Why'd it have to be like this?

- Like what?

- Us pointing guns

at each other.

We're partners.

You saved my life.

- And you sent me to prison.

- You put yourself in prison

when you took that money.

- I should be thankin' you,

prison taught me things.

- How not to give a f***

about anyone but yourself.

- It's the system man.

- You wanna be

the one to end it.

- No, this is.

Sorry to break it

to you partner,

but sometimes the

bad guy gets away.

- [Corbin] Is that

what you are now?

- That's who you made me.

- You think that was fun for me?

Pointing the finger at my

best friend and saying,

"Yes, I saw him

take that money."

You think I enjoyed that?

I had to go back to work the

next day a f***ing pariah.

No one would even look at me.

You know what, I

didn't blame them.

- F*** you Corbin.

- No, f*** you Clay.

You put yourself in that cell,

and you're gonna put

yourself in the morgue.

- I gave everything.

- We put our lives on the line

every day, that's the job.

I don't expect a f***ing parade

and I certainly don't expect

anyone to pay for my mistakes.

- I woulda given my life

for this f***ing country,

right up until it took my soul.

- You don't have a soul.

- That's the first true

thing you've said all day.

- I'm tired Clay,

let's call this.

Someone's gonna shoot

you, might as well be me.

(gunshot)

(heavy breathing)

(high anticipation music)

- You got one hell

of an overtime claim

coming for this one,

don't you?

You okay?

- No, no I'm not.

- Any of that yours?

- How much of this was set up?

- We knew Clay was

planning something.

He had someone on the inside.

- So what happens now?

- Oh it's already happened.

Clay's dead,

The mole's dead,

all-in-all a pretty

successful day.

You might even

get another medal.

- Keep it.

What about the cartels?

The Mexican government

isn't getting involved?

- Well they'll be

informed of course, but

what're they gonna do, declare

war on the cartels again?

- So you can threaten a

nuclear power station,

target our operatives,

and just walk away?

- No one walks away

Corbin, you know that.

This is as much

an information war

as it is about dead bodies.

- We should make more

statutes of Grant.

- [Francesco] He's on the 50.

- Our greatest military leader

and our worst President.

Perfect symbol of America.

Proof you can have all the world

and no f***ing clue

what to do with it.

- [Francesco] You

gettin' political on me?

- Just doin' my job.

- Why don't you hold on to it.

It's probably safer

with you anyway.

I think we've proved that.

- What's on it?

- What everyone

thought was on it.

A couple of small changes.

It had to be real enough to

bring them into the open.

Hey don't lose it.

We can only play this game

when we still have secrets.

Don't think about it too much.

And get some sleep.

(sorrowful music)
