l can't believe this guy.
What can't you believe?
No honor.
No loyalty.
No honesty.
What are you talking
about? Honor? What?
The guy's a cop!
The guy's a rat! okay?
He's starting to sing !
Smart up!
Don't get
my blood up, alright?
lt's about you, and about
me and about the money. lt's
about us! That's it! Alright?
Now you wanna do it.
You do it now.
(Grimes)
Frank. l got the DMV photo
and info back on this Khalid
Manseur who owned the van.
But there's something
strange. Licenses are
good for five years,
but this was renewed
only after one.
The original
was a diplomatic license.
But I checked
with Social Security.
This guy's a mechanic.
So why does a car
mechanic from Lyndon Hill
carry a diplomatic license?
Good point.
l'm going over to the DMV
and have my guy run
a full check on this.
l'll find out.
Watch yourself.
(Grimes)
You guys
on your way back here?
We'll be right there.
Honey. Tell me
you're not going.
l gotta help Frank
with something, honey.
l'll be back
in a half an hour.
Besides, Frank is
on his way over here.
Okay?
It'll be alright.
[phone rings]
(Espinoza)
Frankie. We got the family.
So l want you
to pay attention.
In 15 minutes
l want you to be
at the old tire factory.
lf you're late,
l'm gonna get nervous
and gonna f***ing kill them all.
l don't wanna
kill the children,
do you understand me?
So bring the hooker
and it's all good.
Looks like
the boys got caught
with their pants down.
Yeah. They must've
been sleeping on the job.
(Jackson)
Feds.
(Phil)
Yeah, Feds.
(Grimes)
Sh*t. No. No.
No. Frank.
Stone's got them.
Stone's got them.
We gotta go.
Okay.
Let's go.
Ross!
(Frank)
No trade.
They're gonna try
to kill us for sure.
(Frank)
Seven of them,
three of us.
(Jackson)
Yo, Gannon.
Make that five.
Phil?
Yeah. Why not? Five.
(Loretta)
God.
(Phil)
Alright. See you
in the inside. Let's go.
(Frank)
Check. Ed,
stay on the line.
(Grimes)
We'll be listening.
[phone rings]
Stick to the plan.
(Grimes)
Yeah. I know what to do.
Frank. l was part of it.
Of what?
Of the Unit.
Let's just say
l wasn't as thin
as you. Alright?
l needed the money.
but l swear to God,
l never shot anybody.
l never killed anybody.
This investigation,
if something
would've happened and
you'd have found out later--
l just don't want you
to think that l wasn't
on your side, man.
l was always on your side.
Partners. Right?
Okay.
You know what to do.
Yes, sir.
(Espinoza)
Hold it right there,
Frankie boy.
He's clean.
(Espinoza)
You goddamn f***.
What were you thinking about?
(Espinoza)
You cast us a bunch
of sh*t, Frankie boy.
Where is the girl?
You first.
So Frank, you've
been kind of rough
on the work force, pal.
(Stone)
That's how l got
drafted into this.
(Stone)
But hey, you me, the guys.
All together again.
[chuckles]
Kinda like
the old times, huh?
[child cries softly]
(Loretta)
lt's okay kids,
we're gonna be fine.
(Katy)
Uncle Frank, help us!
(Stone)
So, Frank,
you f*** with us,
the kiddies go kaboom!
(Stone)
Okay?
(Loretta)
Frank!
So, where's the whore?
(Frank)
l gotta make a call.
[releases hammer]
Nice and easy, Frank.
Nice and easy.
Yeah.
(Grimes)
We heard it all.
Let's do it.
That's it. Let's go.
(Frank)
They'll be here
in five minutes.
Frank.
l don't wanna testify.
(Frank)

the money, like you.
(Bryant)
Do you think we're
f***ing brain dead?
(Espinoza)
No. No. No.
Sh. Sh. Sh.

Come on, kids.
(Katy)
Where's Daddy?

(Frank)

(Frank)
Come on, let's go.
(Ross)
Come on.
(Ross)
Come on,
get in the car.
Let's go. Up. Up.
Alright. Let's go.
Yeah !
(Frank)
Run to the truck. Go!
Keep your heads down.
[drone]
Look out!
(Ross)
He's gone.
He's gone. He's gone.
Go back in the car.
And get the kids to a
safe place, okay?
Everyone okay?
Yeah.
Let's go.
(Jackson)
Wait up! l got something !
(Bryant)
What the hell
do we do now?
(Stone)
Just listen to me
and remember,
As long as we get the money
we get on that plane, then
screw everybody and everything.
We just gotta get
through this, okay?
Just keep your
mind on the money.
Everything is good?
Yeah. Everything's great.
And the rest of the men?
With the law.
What?
They didn't
f***ing make it, okay?
Didn't make it.
Look on the bright side.
There's more money
to go around.
Okay? And that should
take the sting outta of it.
Millions.
Yeah.
[sighs]
Okay.
Show time.
(Stone)
l know you're hurting, pal.
But hang in. Money
will make it all better.
(male)
Did you hear me
crying for my mother?
Yo, it's Bill.
l got a situation.
(Bryant)
Mr. Woo.
This is Khalid Manseur.
(Woo)
Mr. Manseur.
Your reputation precedes you.
Partners.
No, Frank!
You know who
you are up against.
l'm a caring
kind of guy.
(Grimes)
Partners.
(Grimes)
Right.
l know it
doesn't help,
but it's not your fault.
He chose to do this. This
is what he wanted to do.
He wanted to stand
up for what was right,
just like you, Sarge.
(Jackson)
l got something.
We, meaning the Agency,
ran this task force in
Afghanistan, in the 80s,
named after
a freedom fighter
killed by the Russians.
Khalid Manseur.
Now, eight agents,
some of the local,
some of them Americans
all used
that same code name.
Get a load of this.
(Ross)
Khalid Manseur,
two faces, two
licenses, same name.
(Ross)
l guess that they
were part of that
Afghani task force.
l guess so.
Your agent
killed this morning?
He's probably on it too.
l'll know pretty soon.
They'll give me a list of
all the agents involved.
(Ross)
And I found this
on one of the guys.
lt's an internet map.
What is that for?
l was thinking
that it was a
symbol, or a date
or the time,
maybe 4:
00 o'clock.20 minutes.
You think that's
where they are?
Why don't we
just wait for the Feds?
Where are you guys going?
What about Loretta?
The kids? Adrianna?
You take care of them.
Jesus, l'm a government
agent, not a baby sitter.
(Frank)
Bring some fire power.
Meet us at l-5
exist 60.
That's right. l n 15 minutes.
Well, that's all the time
you got, Lopresti.
Excellent.
Now we can
do business.
(Bryant)
Don't worry. l'm on it.
Alright. Look.
l'll take care of my end,
you take care of your end.
The thing is,
we gotta find them.
We gotta go in
without Lopresti.
Without backup?
You okay with that?
Absolutely.
Hey, Sarge.
l'll take some
of that gum now.
How many guys you got?
(Lopresti)
Tactical unit choppering up.
Until then l only got four.
l'm lucky we got four.
