Shut the f*** up.

Shut up, shut up!

Shut up, okay?

I f***ing trusted you.

I treated you

like f***ing family.

You were my friend.

That's right, man. I'm your friend.

I'm your friend.

I'm your partner, man.

I'm your straight up partner.

Come on, J, man.

Come on, put down the gun, man.

Don't tell me what to do,

I'll blow your head off.

I swear to god, man,

I'm your friend.

I'm your partner.

That's it.

That's it.

(GRUNTS)

You never had the heart

for this sh*t, did you?

She was always too good

for your ass.

(CHRISTOPHER LAUGHING)

I suppose I should

thank you, huh?

You know, 'cause

it is gonna take like, months

to get rid of this dude.

And you saved me a whole heap

of time on this sh*t.

What?

Why are you looking at me

like that, man? Come on.

Why are you looking

at me like that, man?

You must know that this sh*t was

gonna end up just like this.

Here's how the sh*t went.

You got out of prison, right?

Came after my partner

and me, right?

And we followed you

to this location, right?

And then you resisted.

And in the process you and

my partner got killed.

See, now that's a good story.

It's too bad none of it's

the least bit true.

Facts, truth,

right, wrong, illusions.

Think what you want

but in this life

all the road signs read

"save yourself."

but the facts

are decided by the winners.

And as always,

perception is key.

What's so god damn funny?

(SPUTTERS)

You got it all

figured out, don't you?

(WHEEZING)

Yeah, at this point.

There's usually a lot

of hollering and screaming

and pleading.

People saying,

"oh, no. Don't.

Please, don't.

Don't, please."

but you're cool.

You're not into

that pathetic sh*t, huh?

No, it's like,

you're satisfied.

I'm sorry to disappoint you.

Hmm.

Say good-bye, motherf***er.

Say, good-bye.

Berg, drop your weapons.

Drop 'em!

Turn around!

Put your hands

in the f***ing air.

Captain Scott...

you're not gonna believe this,

but we got the junkie,

the guy with the heroin,

and he brought us over here

and then he stabbed Jackson.

It was horrible.

I couldn't do a thing.

I'm...

Arrest detective berg.

What are you doing?

Someone sent

the ip address to everyone.

The whole thing was broadcast

to the entire station.

So, shut the f*** up.

Process the paperwork

on this one fast.

I'm sure

there's a lot of inmates

who can't wait

to see your ass again.

Hey! Oh, sh*t!

(MUSIC PLAYS)

Ride

I used to jump my horse

and ride

I had a six gun at my side...

At ease.

As we stand here today,

I'm reminded

of the many reasons

why I took up the lifelong oath

of law and order.

Now, I was a young man

when I took up that cause.

The cause of justice.

But not a day goes by that I

don't remember my commencement.

The same ones

that got me through

the coldest of nights.

Now is the time

for good people to do

the right thing.

To behave in a manner

in which always reflects

the true nature of the goodness

that is in all of us.

If we allow it.

Now, you're not alone

in this fight.

You are the men and women

who took up this cause.

And this brave choice

will be with you

all the days that you work

these streets.

And in the end,

I want you to know,

how truly honored I am

that my city

will be

in your very capable hands.

But remember...

(INMATES CHEERING)

COMMANDER ROCCO:
You now have

the power to change things.

INMATE:
Fresh meat! Yeah!

Please use this power justly.

As the rest of us

will be counting on you.

(CHEERING CONTINUES)

ROCCO:
Congratulations.

And good luck.

A cowboy's work

is never done

(REPORTERS CLAMORING)

yes?

It's been almost six months

since you closed the books

on these corruption inquiries,

I mean, how much progress

has been made,

if any at all?

I think we made great strides

in curtailing this problem.

Revamping how the public

sees this department

and its officers.

Commander, what about

the charges -yes?

Ranging from robbery to murder?

Honestly, I'm not here

to talk about that.

These isolated incidents

of rogue police officers

has been well documented.

But I can tell you

something here and now.

These are not

accurate representations

of this department.

Today's a new day for the city.

So, please, if you'll excuse me.

Any further inquiries?

Commander, what about

the victims' families?

How can we be sure

this is the end?

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Oh, I've been

watching you

And all I can do

oh, I can bet on you

so, do what you do

and on me

do what you do

down to me

(VOCALIZING)

Been watching you

(VOCALIZING CONTINUES)

All that you do

oh, I've been

watching you

And all I should do

oh, I can bet on you

so, do what you do

down to me

do what you do

down to me

been watching you

and all that you do

Ride

I used to jump my horse

and ride

I had a six gun

at my side

I was so handsome,

women cried

And I got shot

but I never died

(MUSIC CONTINUES)

I could play

if I do everything

he say

Girls seem to just

get in his way

Those days

we weren't considered fun

A cowboy's work

is never done

He'd fight crime

all the time

He'd always win

until his mom

would break it up

And call him in

he was tough

he was hard

But he was kind

and he was love

'cause guys like him

Were hard to find

ride

I'd like to ride again

some day

I think I still know

how to play

I'd play games now

but it's not fun

A cowboy's work

is never done
