- F*** it.

Tell them to check

the bathroom.

- Check the bathroom.

- Copy that.

We've got what appears to be

Will Tompkins' dead body here.

He's got no shirt.

Repeat, he's got no shirt.

The uniform that went out

the back was our perp.

Find the son of a b*tch.

We'll get him, Yuri.

We'll get him.

All emergency responders,

diner suspect at large

driving a black and white.

PD fleet two...

You understand this.

You got 30 minutes-- 30 minutes

to put the hard drive back in the safe

or your wife,

your kid, your life, done.

Oh, no, no, no. Come on.

You gotta be f***ing kidding me.

Watch where you're going,

you stupid b*tch.

You hear the siren?

Are you f***ing deaf?

Oi, are you blind?!

Watch where you're going,

you stupid cow.

Get off your cell phone, lady.

There you go, there you go.

Hey, man, come back!

Mike, he just ran out!

Turn around.

Call everyone.

I want the bastard

who took the hard drive.

- Hello?

- All right, Barnes.

I've got your hard drive,

but now it's gonna cost you.

- Who is this?

- Who's this?

Who the hell are you?

You're the one who's got Lieutenant

Barnes's phone, but you're not him.

You're speaking to Yuri Mikhalev.

That's my drive you've got.

Well, then this might be

both of our lucky day.

Mrs. Davenport, it's over.

Time to go home.

Easy, mate, easy.

Charlie was my friend.

He bled to death in his own office.

I knew him 30 years.

You're that fellow with the fancy watch.

Yuri Mikhalev.

Christ.

If I would have known

it was you in there all night,

I would've watched me

Ps and Qs.

I should kill you right now.

You could do that,

but then you'd never see

your precious hard drive again, eh?

Baby, I promise this is the last car

I'm ever breaking into.

As for your friend Charlie,

my condolences,

but I lost two of my colleagues

in that royal f*** up.

It's not me you should blame,

it's Barnes.

I am.

I did.

Boss, Barnes got the message.

Unless you want to join him,

you better give me the drive.

Money first.

- He probably left it in the car.

- Happy hunting.

Do you think I'm f***ing stupid?

How do I know

you didn't make a copy?

I barely had enough time

to ditch the cruiser

when I got out of that diner.

Who do you think I am,

Harry f***ing Houdini?

Oi, the money's light.

This is the best I could do

on such short notice.

Who do you think I am?

Harry Houdini?

Hey, tell your dog

to put that piece away.

This is a family establishment.

We don't want

any unnecessary attention.

Put it away.

Barnes thought

you made a deal with the FBI.

- He thought you sold him out.

- Barnes was an idiot.

A lot of people suffered

because of your actions tonight.

My men almost executed

the kid's wife.

They were an unlucky couple.

Wrong place at the wrong time.

- What'd you do with 'em?

- The girl has been released

and now the police know

Davenport had nothing to do

- with what happened at the diner.

- Ended up all right, then, didn't it?

By the way,

I am that f***ing stupid.

Right.

Here's your hard drive.

I told you

I didn't want any heroes.

A lot of people are dead

or will go to jail

because of that drive.

Why don't you tell me about

the gig that Charlie gave you?

I-- I just had to give

a message to somebody.

We know who you went to see.

It's on for the 12th,

you got that?

A friend of mine said

that the police were all excited

about hearing something

that was on for the 12th.

- So?

- There was nothing on for the 12th.

There was no FBI sting.

That was just a test.

We knew someone was giving

information at the diner,

we just didn't know who.

It was you.

You're the f***in' rat.

The FBI are gonna hit us.

I want you to tell 'em

it's on for the 12th.

Unfortunately for my boss,

once Barnes got the message,

he got paranoid

and set in motion

the clusterfuck at the diner.

Thought I'd find you here.

Come in,

I want you to see something.

Come on, come on!

Huh?

- What do you think?

- Hey.

It's not bad.

It's not bad at all.

Thanks for doing this.

I forgot how handy

having you around can be.

Sorry I doubted you, man.

Recovered as evidence.

Try not to lose it this time.

That hard drive you gave me

is gonna do a lot of good.

You're in the clear, Nick.

I pulled some strings.

Thank you.

- I'm gonna get going.

- Hey,

any lead on the guy

who took me?

No, but we'll get him.

I'll see ya.

Back to work.

- Those are screws.

- I know.

- I knew that.

- Ta-da.

Springs.

'Cause when I'm with you

Nothing could be so cool...

As rumor has it still

I followed the rules

of Frank and McNeal

So catch me if you can,

there ain't people when I take off

Check me when I land,

white-collar mischief

Never been caught,

so if money's on your mind

Nigga, hold that thought

Daydreaming of a mil,

but plottin' the same fortune

I think, "Make it rain,"

or maybe I'm brainstorming"

Young gettin' busy on his own

like an orphan

My sentence-skillful ways

equal self-made endorsements

Damn, Mr. Commodity,

you are such a lottery ticket

Making these rappers

seem sorry, apologies

Somebody gotta do it,

I guess it's gonna be moi

I'm in a foreign Maserati,

please say au revoir

Yeah, life's a b*tch,

Money made it up

Every now and then I like to

cheat on her with Lady Luck

Push come to shove

Come to shove

Push back

Push back

Tell them I ain't going

out like that

When push come to shove

Come to shove

Push back

Push back

We ain't gotta take that,

homie, homie

Get down

Get down, homie, homie

Get down

Get down

Get down

Get down

Get down

Get down

Get down

Feet on pavement,

grind time blisters

Entertaining the idea

that I can get richer

Corrupt moves,

can't explain it all like Clarissa

But it's a reason

for my motives I deliver

Gucci bag straps

is becoming my enigma

I'm too old for swag,

I'm focused on my charisma

Saying, "Yo, why you talking

like them white folks?"

I say, "I'm just shaking hands

with the right folks"

Clocking overtime

with the same clothes

What time you off work?

when the bank close

I dated females with issues

that I'm to blame for

I've fallen victim to the emotions

that I ain't show

Close knitted to

the cost of success

Some call it being confident,

I call it being blessed

Just a minute,

let me get it off my chest

See, I'm coming for what's next,

y'all niggas can have the rest, wait

When push come to shove

Come to shove

Push back

Push back

Tell them

you ain't going out like that

When push come to shove X

- Come to shove

Push back

Push back

You ain't gotta take that,

homie, homie

Get down

Get down

Get down

Get down

Get down

Get down,

homie, homie

Get down

Standing on the stage

of irrelevance

Pretending not to notice

this white elephant
