The Heat Page #11

Synopsis: Sarah Ashburn, an FBI agent, is extremely ambitious and has her eye on a promotion, but she doesn't get along with her co-workers. She is sent to Boston to uncover the identity of an elusive drug lord, Mr. Larkin, by tracking down his proxy, Rojas, and is told that she'll have a good shot at the promotion if she finds Larkin. When she arrives in Boston, she learns that Larkin has been eliminating his competition and taking over their operations. She learns that Rojas is in Boston PD custody and goes to see him to ask him what he knows about Larkin, but is warned that the cop who arrested Rojas, Shannon Mullins, is very territorial, and she is not exactly sociable. When the two meet they don't get along. When Mullins learns why Ashburn is in Boston, she decides to find Larkin herself. Ashburn is told by her boss to work with Mullins, but it won't be easy because Ashburn does things by the book while Mullins does things her way.

out of his throat.

He's alive, isn't he?

I have a cut on my arm

from earlier.

Do you think I

should amputate it?

You know you're

not a real doctor?

Neither are you.

Bye-bye! You're a

reckless person.

Thank you.

Not you.

Oh, my God.

Ashburn.

Why don't you

have your own phone?

Who am I, the Queen of England?

I don't know. Does the Queen of

England only wear sweatpants?

F*** you.

You F you.

This is Mullins.

Shannon, I left. I couldn't

sit there anymore.

What? Where are you?

I talked to them and everything's fine.

Nothing's weird, we're good.

It doesn't work

that way, Jason.

They know you're my brother.

But they also

know you arrested me

and that made it seem

like I hated you.

No, it doesn't work that way.

Shut up for a minute!

Look, I know where the

shipment's going to.

I don't give a sh*t

about the shipment!

Just get your

ass back here now.

I'm gonna stick around or

they'll know something's weird.

Get off me!

It's my phone.

Trust me, I'm trying

to do the right thing.

Are you kidding me?

What?

Jason! Jason!

Let go of my vest!

Shannon?

It's Ashburn. What the

f*** is going on?

What have you got?

Don't talk to her!

The shipment's coming to the Boston

Harbor Shipyard at 11 o'clock.

It's a big freight, tons of guys.

I got it.

They'll be heavily armed. You

got to be careful, you hear me?

The ship is called the S.S.

Tank or something like that.

I promise we'll be there.

I got to go.

I'll break your f***ing arm!

Okay, take it easy!

Just take it easy!

Sh*t!

You just made my

brother a dead man!

No, he's gonna be fine.

Mullins, I swear he'll be fine.

We're gonna have

the full power of...

...the Boston FBI down on that

terminal tonight, I promise you.

He'll be fine.

It really is a good thing.

You'll thank me.

Shut up!

All right. SWAT TEAM

The ship's coming in.

Time to lock and load.

Okay, here we go.

Police! Put your hands up!

FBI! Get your f***ing hands in the air now!

Let's see 'em!

Boat's clean.

It's not clean. We found a

joint in that girl's purse.

Oh, now...

this is really a mess.

Sir, we just have to

hit the streets again.

And if the shipment came in...

Ashburn, enough.

It's over.

I'm sending you

back to New York.

Sir, no, please!

I'm telling you, I'm so close.

This was just a little hiccup.

It wasn't a hiccup.

Lo siento.

Don't.

Don't even...

Oh, God.

Um, sorry. Detective Mullins.

Have you seen her?

Hospital. Some kind

of family emergency.

Oh, God.

He's in an induced coma.

They shot him and left

him out in the street.

I'm so sorry, Mullins.

I'm sorry.

He was trying to move on.

He had a job interview.

I saw the resume.

It was a terrible resume.

He mentioned prison and...

...in Special Skills he said,

"Keeping it real", but...

...he was trying.

How's your family holding up?

They're not talking to me.

Blame me now more than ever.

It's not your fault.

Yes, it is.

Damn it, I should have

handled it by myself!

So that's it?

I'm not your partner anymore?

No, you're not. You're another

f***ing disappointment.

I want you to know that I'm gonna

find the man responsible for this.

Hey, Shannon.

Uh, that was wicked rude.

You can live your life

In a crowded city

You can walk along

a crowded street

But the city

really ain't no bigger

Police!

Put your hands up!

Really?

But it don't do too

much good to be talkin'

Brother, when there ain't no

Ain't nobody listening

I'll give these back to you.

Thank you so much

for your help.

Anytime.

We're gonna miss

you around here.

Oh, I don't think so.

I might.

You did a good job out there.

Just keep your fingers out of guys' necks.

It's nasty.

Bye.

We sent out alerts

to airports, train stations.

DEA's gonna take

the lead on this one.

Although this is

a joint task force,

we're also working

with the Boston P.D.

Adam and I will be handpicking

all the officers so we

don't wind up with this.

Any questions?

That's not right.

No, it's not.

That officer you're making fun

of and all laughing at...

...has more integrity,

commitment,

courage and guts than

anybody in this room.

Yeah... but less

mental stability.

So just to be clear,

what does mental

instability look like?

Keeping people safe?

Protecting the community?

Getting the job done?

Is that what it looks like?

Then great.

If that's what it looks like,

sign me up for the crazy house!

That officer right there...

...is a better law enforcement

officer than anybody in this room.

Myself included. She is better than

you, she is better than you...

...and she is definitely

better than you.

What are you doing? Are you texting?

Playing a game?

What is it? Put it away!

God, you guys!

What is the matter with you?

You're just such jerks!

You're just such...

You're just a sh*t-jerk! You're

just a sh*t-jerk dick... f***er!

You're a sh*t-jerk

dick-f***er assholer!

And you just go

f*** yourselves!

Sorry, senor, not you.

Pardon, please.

Just... all you f***ers!

Get on the ground!

You are under arrest!

Put your hands up and tell me where

the f*** Larkin is!

I think it'd be much more better

if you put your hands up.

"Much more better?"

Drop the gun and take a

grammar course, you idiot.

Who the f*** are you?

Me and her...

...we're the f***ing heat.

All right... we've got some

scumbags to visit, huh?

Yeah, we do.

Get up, a**hole!

Let's go.

Where's Larkin?

I don't even know who that is.

Where is he?

I don't know who

the f*** that is!

Really? It's clean?

You not finding anything?

Nothing in here?

Okay, hold on a second.

How about this? Right there!

Right there!

Got your pizza!

Got your pizza, mister!

Fresh hot pizza!

Get on your knees!

Where's your stash?

I don't have anything yet.

I'm waiting to get some

from a new distributor.

Who's your new distributor?

Oh, sh*t, man!

Guess who.

Surprise.

Come on, man!

I don't know what y'all are doing here!

I'm out of the game.

You know what I hate? Drugs.

I'm a different man!

This is not mine.

I just bought that

refrigerator the other day.

This must have been in there.

We want to know

where all this new sh*t

is coming from.

Where is Larkin?

B*tch, what part of "I'm out"

do you not understand? I'm out!

You want to interview him?

No. No. I think I have

something better in mind.

Oh, sh*t! I don't know sh*t!

Come on!

I don't know, you're

getting awfully heavy, Rojas.

Yeah, lie to me again.

I want to feel your body sliding

through my delicate hands.

I don't know sh*t!

Whoa, I can't hold you!

No,

I don't want to die!

I don't want to die!

Okay! It's at a warehouse!

On Summer Street!

I'm almost disappointed.

Get me up!

Let's pull him up.

No, I'm not kidding.

I can't lift him up.

I can't lift him!

I've only done this

one other time

and it was

a really tiny hooker.

Lift my ass up!

You ain't putting

nobody over no rails

you can't f***ing

lift them out!

Okay, okay!

Uh... Just tuck your head
