Code of Honor Page #5

that Iraqi General,

the one that goes boom

when you stand up.

Yeah, that one.

You shoot me, you die.

My life for yours, that

sounds like a pretty good deal.

I'll make this easy.

My finger goes off this

detonator,

everybody goin' die.

Goodbye, William.

[man] Oh, sh*t!

- [all screaming]

- Move it, move it!

Kill him!

All of you, get out of here!

Go on!

- [gunfire continues]

- [all shouting]

Stay down!

You've got the wrong guy!

[shouts]

[grunts]

Drop your weapon!

Don't you move!

Don't do it.

You all right, Porter?

What the hell happened in here?

He was here.

He put a bomb under my chair.

If I get up, it's gonna explode.

I don't see anything.

It can't be that small.

There's no bomb here, sir.

[chuckles] That son of a b*tch.

[helicopter hovering]

[chatter on police radio]

There's a lot

of dead people in there!

I don't care whose

standards you were using,

not all the victims

were bad guys.

He had a jamming device.

No transmissions were possible.

Don't go anywhere.

This guy's not gonna stop

until I have an Emmy, a Peabody,

and a Pulitzer.

- Let's do some reporting.

- [chuckles]

- How could this happen?

- We had only static

from the moment Agent Porter

entered the club.

He said Sikes

used a jamming device.

It would have to be

one hell of a jammer.

The static I heard

sounded a lot more like

Agent Porter simply

turned off his wire.

Porter turning off his wire?

That doesn't make any sense,

Captain.

- No, no, it doesn't.

- What would you like us to do?

I would like you to get

your asses back to the station

and book Romano.

And take Agent Porter with you.

And don't let him

out of your sight

until I get a chance to talk to

whoever the hell his supervisor

is back in Washington.

I'm gonna nail his ass

to the wall for this.

Hey, detectives,

looks like the super-vigilante

struck again.

What's the body count this time?

Why don't you

go chase the ambulance

and count them

yourself, okay?

I only report the news,

I don't make it.

Where's Agent Porter?

[sighs]

He's still alive.

Who? The super-vigilante?

Yeah, the "super-vigilante".

You know him, don't you?

Yeah. He's, uh...

Colonel Robert Sikes.

He was my commanding officer

and my best friend.

Took me under his wing

when I was just a scared kid

looking to serve my country.

He knows what I'm capable of,

and what I'm not.

Oh, my God, are you all right?

Uh, yeah, I am.

Look, you should be happy.

The police arrested

Vincent Romano tonight.

Oh, yeah, thank God.

I saw it on the news.

What happened?

Robert, uh...

He set me up to help him take

down Romano and the cartel.

That's a good thing, right?

Well, for you and Corey, it is.

[sighs]

Oh, uh, he loves baseball.

He never had a glove.

This was my little boy's.

You're not gonna be safe as long

as Robert's out there.

You need to go to the police.

He still wants me dead?

My hope now lies where it always

has, in stopping Robert.

And the only way to stop him,

is to become him.

[gasps]

[sobs]

Yes.

That's her.

That's my little girl.

You said, um...

this happened at

Devil's Garden?

Yes, ma'am.

There was a shoot-out

and your daughter just...

happened to be there.

I'm sorry for your loss,

Senator.

Are you, Detective?

You just brought in

a mob boss.

You'll probably

get a promotion.

They're gonna be transporting

Romano downtown soon.

- Think we can still make it?

- How fast can you drive?

"Tonight, 10p.m.,

the Snake Eyes Club,

you don't bring the police

and I don't bring my gun."

Neil? Neil!

[Detective] This is the footage

from Romano's security system.

That's Porter

talking to Sikes.

And there's Senator Richards'

daughter.

Well, at least she wasn't

shot by one of ours.

And what's a senator's daughter

doing in a mobster's club

anyway?

It's a hot spot.

All the kids go there.

Do you know who owns all the

places you've been to, Captain?

[telephone rings]

Captain Connely.

All right.

It's time.

Romano's ready.

I want this transport done

without incident.

No press, no comment,

no nothing.

Once Romano's downtown, he's

the D.A.'s problem, not ours.

- You got that?

- Yes, sir.

- Yes, sir.

- Make me proud.

[indistinct chattering]

Well, Mr. Romano is

an upstanding citizen

of this community.

All he did was try to

defend himself inside

his own place of business.

He didn't kill anybody,

he didn't shoot anybody.

And I'm sure the judge and the

jury will see it that way if it

even gets to trial.

I'm sure the judge

and jury will.

Thank you for your time.

- [reporters clamoring]

- [Jerry] Let's go!

Come on, Neil!

- Mr. Romano!

- Mr. Romano!

Mr. Romano, is there any truth

to the accusation

that the girl was killed by your

direction at the Devil's Garden?

- We're following behind Mr.

Romano right now--

- [officer] Come on, move!

Keep on walking.

Move, please!

- Thank you, move!

- [clamoring continues]

Watch your head.

Nice and easy.

- Nice and steady.

- [Jerry] What we're witnessing

now, Mr. Romano,

the crime boss who's been

accused of everything

from prostitution

to racketeering to murder,

this may be the very last time

we see him outside--

[people screaming]

[all shouting]

[footsteps approaching]

Hey, partner?

There's someone in the captain's

office to see you.

Detective Peterson,

I'm Keri Green

and this is Corey.

We need your help.

As governor,

my administration

will be for

the creation of new jobs.

Most importantly, it will

be against crime.

The so-called "super-vigilante"

is a menace to all the good,

honest people of this city.

That is why

when I am elected governor,

I'll be able to insure

that he gets the electric chair

for all the terrible acts

he's committed.

Now we have one of

the finest police departments

in the country,

but we must never be too proud

to ask for assistance.

This "super-vigilante"

is a plague upon our city,

and is nothing short

of a domestic terrorist.

You shouldn't have said that.

And that is why,

with the help of

the Honorable

Senator Richards,

I have asked the FBI

to assist us

in stopping this terrorist

once and for all.

So, you never saw Colonel Sikes

at the Snake Eyes Club?

[sighs]

No. I never got

a good look at him.

I never saw his face.

You never saw him plant a bomb

or leave a briefcase?

No, I left

before any of that.

But you've been

with Agent Porter since?

I went to my apartment first,

that's when Romano's men came.

They thought I knew

who blew up the club.

They were gonna kill me

if I didn't tell them.

So who killed the men

in your apartment and

outside your building?

William.

Agent Porter.

He's the one who saved me

and my son.

Agent Porter killed them?

All except for

the guy with the broken arm.

He said Colonel Sikes

killed him.

Did you happen to see

Colonel Sikes do this?

No, I had already run away.

Agent Porter definitely

killed the other six?

It was self-defense,

they were trying to kill us.
