WARDEN:

ln The Prophet, Kahlil Gibran

writes about good and evil.

''Of the good in you, l can speak,

but not of the evil. ''

You are only good

when you are at one with yourself.

What you went through in here

l wouldn't wish on any man.

But you survived.

You didn't ask for trouble.

But you didn't back down

from it either.

lt was as if you were born

to the darkness in this place.

[CLOCK TlCKlNG]

l hope to God

that this day,

you put that darkness behind you.

[SPEAKlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY]

l want you to know

there is help on the outside.

So if you get to thinking it's too much

and you can't handle the pressure,

please call one of these numbers.

Do you have any questions?

Where's the exit?

Hey.

Will you look at that?

Looks like somebody got lost.

What do we got?

Wha--? What do we got?

Yeah, l caught the case.

ClCERO:
No, you didn't.

Yeah.

You couldn't have.

Why is that?

Because Mallory would

never put you on my case.

l don't like this

any more than you do.

l'm weeks away from retirement,

got paperwork up my ass.

So when the supervising sergeant

tells me to jump,

l just go with the flow, baby.

You can't smoke in here.

Sorry.

ClCERO:

Get me a good tight shot

of that exit wound.

MAN [ON TV]:

He is described as a male in his 30s,

approximately 6'3'' tall

with closely cropped hair.

Police have not yet released

MAN [ON TV]:

The gunman was described as

armed and extremely dangerous.

Let me call you right back.

Well, well.

You've been a bad boy.

lt's a nice set of wheels

l got you out there.

You got my money?

Hm.

Now, how'd you smuggle

that much money out of prison?

You don't wanna know.

[GROANS]

l want the other names.

The price just went up.

lt took me 1 0 years

to track down these people for you.

And it cost a lot of money.

And now l wants to re-negotiate.

Okay.

That's what l thought.

You're playing ball now.

The price just went down.

Kenny?

Kenny.

This here is

my Samoan friend.

Ultimate Fighting champion

over in Guam.

You don't know half the sick sh*t

they do over there just to win a title.

Who is he?

Brother,

l ain't got no beef with you.

Do what l pay you to do.

You better get back.

KENNY:

Bald-headed Precious. Get your--

Here, l owe you a refund.

Here you go.

ClCERO:

He looks so familiar.

l have seen him somewhere,

l know it.

Really?

[GRUNTS]

All right, here it comes.

Look at his face.

He knew

his number was up.

Wait a minute.

That's not just fear,

that's recognition.

He can't see where the gun is.

lt's blocked by the partition.

He knew him.

Maybe.

WOMAN [OVER PHONE]: Hello?

Marina.

Hey, it's me.

Do you know what time it is?

Morning.

KlLLER:

l did a sequence of poses

this morning

that only 1 0 people

on the planet can do.

Ending with the corpse pose.

But you know what,

l'm done with yoga.

l beat it.

You beat yoga?

Yeah.

[LlLY CHUCKLES]

lt's time to move on.

To what?

l don't know.

Something more ultimate.

l worry that a real corpse pose

is the only thing

that's gonna satisfy you.

No, come on, not death.

Life.

Oh, l've never felt so alive.

Really?

Yeah.

lt's getting harder and harder

to go on these jobs.

WOMAN [OVER HEADSET]:

You mentioned this before

at our last session.

Can you take some time off?

KlLLER:
No, no, that's not an option.

My business is important.

You haven't told me

what it is you do now.

l'm a surgeon. l remove cancer.

Well, l'll have to take you

at your word.

You know, l have other patients

in the medical field.

They find it hard to handle

the stress associated with their jobs.

There's a lot of pressure

when you have someone's life

in your hands.

[SlGHS]

Morning, Detective Cicero.

Sergeant Mallory.

Don't be mad.

You should've told me.

MALLORY:

You're right, you should've

heard it from me. l'm sorry.

l should've told you.

Let him help you

with the case though.

COP:

So, what do we got?

You play fast and loose

with that ''we'' sh*t, cowboy.

We got our shooter.

We?

l got a call from the warden

at Murdoch.

He recognized our guy in the news.

Apparently, he made a lot of money

running contraband in prison.

Any gang affiliations?

Nope, did his whole 1 0.

No protection. A walk-alone.

They kept coming after him.

He kept knocking them down.

l see he kept score.

All he had to do was flash that

and no one would screw with him.

He got popped for a bank job.

Ten years ago, Bakersfield First.

ROBBER 1 :

Don't be a hero, you got me?

Stay down.

Shooter was a bank robber--

He was the driver.

ROBBER 1 :
Go, go.
