Previously on Mayor of Kingstown...
Let me fucking go, Mike!
We have a spare room upstairs.
We don't need her trouble becomin' our trouble.
Who ordered this?
Nobody, man. That's the fuckin' problem.
There's no leaders inside, Mike.
Not one shot caller in the whole goddamn camp.
We can't get no messages in or out.
I have an idea.
And you're gonna have to trust me, 'cause it's gonna sting.
She's gone.
Gone?
What if I can get you the leaders of all four gangs?
Everyone that's at war.
How long they planning on holding us?
How long is it gonna take you to get your house together inside?
- Not long. - Ice cold, Mike.
Name another way.
I have no home.
You are home.
Are you Mike?
I am.
Did you speak to Candace?
I did.
She told you it was just me.
She did.
I wouldn't lie to you.
I know.
I worked some hotels in Lansing.
I just needed some time, you know?
I thought you were dead,
in the riot, so...
I didn't know where to go.
No Mike?
Fuck Mike.
Did you?
What?
No.
I believe you, Iris.
I'm going to sleep, I'm tired.
We can deal with tomorrow when tomorrow's here.
CREDITS
Go on.
Get down! On the ground!
Show me your hands!
Get down! Laid down!
Get the fuck down! Get the fuck down!
Get that gun out of my face, boy.
I'm too damn old to be gettin' on my knees for anybody.
Fuckers in there, they'd better not break my shit!
Lower the weapons! Stevie, can we get her a chair?
You know who my grandson is.
I do, ma'am, yes. That's why we're here.
I know you got your hands full with the kids.
We'll be in and out real quick, I promise.
Fuck me.
Oh, boy.
You put her at your mom's!
Yeah!
- I did. - And she just...
ran away.
Yeah, like I fuckin' said!
And you have no idea where she went.
No. No idea.
So, it appears that neither one of us
know how to look after her. Right?
So I'm gonna go to work.
You can fuck off and do whatever you do.
Hey, you're a federal informant.
- Can you fuckin' save it? - We pay you to inform.
Okay, I'll inform you I don't know fuckin' shit!
If Milo Sunter's out there, he will find her.
Do what you gotta do, okay? I'll do what I do.
And I'll tell you this...
If you forced her to testify...
he will kill her, and who fuckin' wins then?
Fuck.
What did I do?
You want some coffee?
Yeah, yeah.
That'd be great. Love some coffee.
Appreciate it.
Yeah? What, what?
I don't doubt what hell that girl's been though,
but it's not yours to live in.
Look, Rebecca, I'm not tryin' to live in that shit, okay?
I'm just tryin' to get her the fuck out of it.
You look lovely, good morning,
and all that bullshit!
Thank you!
Yeah?
What?
When?
You're fucking kidding me!
What in the fuck?
Hey!
Do you listen to anything I say?!
Look where you are. You gotta keep it down.
You fuckin' raided the Commons!
Hey, CI told us that there was illegal drug activity.
Are you kidding me?!
When is there not fuckin' drug activity?!
Use your fuckin' heads, you guys!
Jesus Christ!
I negotiated the deal!
You don't attack them while the leaders are inside!
Bunny takes a hit for us.
- What the fuck?! - Takes a hit, Mike!
He is a drug dealer.
Just 'cause he's your fuckin' drug dealer...
I don't know what to tell ya.
He's inside, working for us.
Let's not forget that, fuck heads.
He's not gonna do fuckin' shit all for us
if you're goin' down and bustin' down
- his grandma's fuckin' door! - Mikey...
We were fuckin' super fuckin' respectful.
- Very respectful. - Very respectful.
I took it fuckin' easy!
You dipshits, this'll start a war out here.
Is that what you want?
You want us to stop bein' police? Is that what you want?
Fuck them!
- Fuck them? - Fuck them.
- Fuck you. - Fuck them.
We're this fuckin' close to getting it done, okay?
Fuck them! Fuck them!
Fuckin'... calm the fuck down.
We're this close.
Mike, we're on the same goddamn team.
Yeah, you're makin' my job fuckin' harder.
I'm not your fuckin' janitor, you cunt!
Fuck you!
It's hot as a motherfucker in this bitch, man, shit.
Sun's barely up, Bun.
You gon' sweat out all your toxins.
Yeah, my body's a temple and all that shit, right?
Bunny Washington!
Fuck that cracker, bruh.
You ain't here to answer to his shit.
That motherfucker one of Mike's boys.
He probably got some instructions or some shit.
You don't need no instructions on how to run this shit.
The way I see it, Mike is the last fuckin' dude
that should be givin' instructions.
His shit is what got shit twisted in the first place.
Listen.
From now on, we gonna trust that Mike got a plan
to make this shit right.
All this shit shake out, and we get our pound.
Let's fucking go!
If it don't go his way...
We run it like we do.
Bunny Washington! I ain't got all day!
This motherfucker screamin' my name like I owe him money.
Hey.
Wanna take this shit off him?
You don't wanna do that.
Man's right. You don't wanna do that.
- Bunny... - Mm-hmm?
Let me out, Mike.
I'm workin' on it, okay?
Get your shit settled in here, I'll settle mine outside.
Shit is settled.
Shit is never gettin' settled, Mike.
I'm just fingerin' dykes in here, bruh.
I'm in here linin' it out, right?
Doin' your shit.
I want assurances.
I'm fuckin' workin' on it.
Your word don't mean shit to me no more.
I don't wanna hear working.
I'm gonna get something from the assistant DA next week, okay?
Listen to me.
What do you need in here to make things right?
Some chips gotta get knocked off.
My cousin will run point when I get out.
Yeah, what do you need from me?
Backs turned, 5 o'clock tomorrow.
Fine.
You check in on mine?
Cell phone shop is up and running.
My people?
They're taken care of.
Shit, bruh, you do a motherfucker like this...
it's gonna take a long-ass time to bury this hatchet, Mike.
Yeah, I know.
Keep it tight, get it done. Okay?
Five at five. Okay?
Tomorrow.
- I can do that. - Yeah.
Kareem?
Keep him insulated. He's the management now.
_
What the fuck?
Jesus Christ.
Fuckin' good to see ya.
Hey, good to see you!
Finally banished you fuckers, huh?
You decided to come in?
- Well, well, huh? - Nice to see ya.
- How you doin', huh? - Yeah.
I'm all right. I'm all right.
- Good! - Hey, thank you.
Can I talk to you for a minute?
Stevie, just get these fuckers back to work.
Happy time's over, people.
- That's it? - Yep, that's it.
That's it.
- It's good to see you. - Yeah, you too.
Well, what do you want? A coffee, you want a doughnut?
- You want...? - Nah, nah, I'm good, I'm good.
I just...
You know, I just need a minute.
Fuck, it's good to be back here.
It's fuckin' great to see you.
You too, man.
You're good?
Fuckers suspended me.
Pending the investigation.
No pay, and...
It's like, they know I got a kid on the way, and I said,
"Fuck you motherfuckers. I quit."
You did the right thing. Fuck them.
You need to be here.
We need more fuckin' soldiers on the street.
That's what I want.
I mean, what do we gotta do to make that happen?
You gotta fuckin' be patient.
They're not gonna put you back on the street
until the staties call this a righteous fuckin' shoot.
It fuckin' was a righteous shoot!
Fuckin' bureaucratic bullshit.
But...
you gotta fuckin' keep your head down.
Until the IA report comes back clean.
Once that happens, you're fuckin' golden.
I'm dyin' in here, man. It's...
This is home for me. You know?
You talkin' to anybody?
Are you fuckin' talkin' to anybody?
I got a fuckin' empty apartment,
I got a fuckin' ex-girlfriend's cat.
Neither one of 'em will talk to me, all right?
You got fuckin' shit to work for.
You have got a fuckin' wife who loves you.
You have got a kid on the way.
I don't need a shrink, Ian. I need a job.
Brother, I got you. All right?
- All right. - All right?
- All right. - I got ya.
- I know. - All right?
Okay.
KPD can't take me back until IA clears me,
and that's probably gonna take a couple months.
And it's like, I don't have a fuckin' couple months, Mike.
I...
I need somethin', man. I, I, I gotta fuckin' earn.
Well, why don't you just take a fuckin' break, right?
Put a pause on this shit.
I take a break, I'm gonna fucking lose it.
I gotta stay busy. I'm already losin' it.
You know, why don't you do shit around here?
Help Ma out, right?
Fix the doors, the gates, mow the lawn,
that kinda shit, right?
Fuck you, don't brush me off like that.
All right, look, if you want a chore,
I can give you a chore.
Yes, that's what I want. What you got?
Check the train station, bus depot, taxis.
All that.
Ma gave her a list of shelters, check those.
Can't find Iris?
Nope.
Oh, Mike...
You gotta give that to the feds, or somethin', to KPD.
'Cause I tell you what,
she's probably back in New York or wherever the fuck,
livin' her best fuckin' life.
Best case scenario,
she's put miles between Kingstown and herself.
'Cause if she's still here...
Well, that's what I'm tryin' to find out, okay?
Knock, knock.
Hey.
Let him in.
What do you want, Mike?
Just checkin' in on you.
Makin' sure you're okay.
Mm-hm.
You talk to him yet?
Who?
He wasn't identified on the inside, so...
Oh...
Yeah.
A lot of bodies.
Oh, cut the shit, Joseph. Come on.
You and I both know that he's out.
I would love to see my friend free.
Is that right, your friend?
Milo values loyalty.
And I am loyal above all.
Well, nine years... You're his errand boy.
Nothin' you can do now that he can't, right?
Is that a fuckin' baby?
I hear nothing.
No?
What do you want, Mike?
What'd you do with her?
Who?
Did you kill her?
Mike, when whore talks to feds...
What do you think happens?
Stop.
Get out. Pashla von!
I'll be back.
You can count on it.
Tell me you got some movement.
Hey, Mike!
I'm fine, how are you?
Just give me somethin', Evelyn. Come on.
I'm workin' the boss,
everything's good as far as I know.
Well, that doesn't really fucking help me.
You know, I made promises. I need release dates.
Well, maybe you shouldn't have done that.
A lot of paper to be pushed.
Listen, I need you to see something.
Right now?
30 minutes.
Meet me at Warwick Detention.
I can't. I got, I got shit to do.
Hey, this is for you.
The world is changing, and you need to see it.
Fine, I'm comin'. Fine.
Get out.
Are you finished?
Ya tol'ko nachal.
Mne platiat ne za skorost', a za zdelannuiu rabotu.
To numb the area.
Hold still, please.
This is your new home.
You have a bed, safe, closet.
You will make $5,000 a night.
If you make eight, good for you.
If you make four, we have a problem.
Warwick Detention is the sole private penial institution in Kingstown.
Warwick Group has run it since 2018,
and it is the only prison that saw no violence during the riot.
It's easy to see no violence when you have no yard time,
no education service, no cafeteria, no commissary...
Sounds like you're describing Tent City, Mr. Moore.
How's that no violence workin' out?
It's a unique situation.
Well, in the next three years,
Kingstown will be repaired and retrofitted.
In the next five years, every prison in Kingstown
will be contracted to the Warwick Group.
She's out of her fuckin' mind. That'll never happen.
It is happening, Mike. That's why I wanted you to come.
They're still debating in Lansing, right?
Report on the riot's not even out.
Warwick's doing the report. You should get to know them.
Are we boring you back there?
No, it's great. Fuckin' interesting.
Tent City is temporary.
And Warwick is a permanent solution.
So we're gonna bring some of your inmates
to Anchor Bay in the next week,
and the rest of the overflow will come here.
You're overbooked already.
Well, we know how to warehouse.
We have facilities in other counties, other states...
She's like a fuckin' real estate agent.
This is fuckin' ridiculous. Look at these guys.
Look like they're on fuckin' safari.
Fuck me.
First day back is fun, yeah?
Like riding a bicycle, but the pay's better.
I'm Tati.
You have a problem with the other girls,
you come to me.
You need anything...
Let me know.
You did good already.
You're going to do fine.
Maybe.
Does Milo come by?
Who?
We're gonna do this?
He does not.
Well, can I go to him?
When he calls.
You got shit on you, Tati?
What kinda shit?
The kinda shit that makes today feel like
I'm hopin' tomorrow might.
Hope is good.
Hope dies, we die.
Yeah.
How bad?
And you're tellin' me now?
Fine, I'm on my way.
Bad news?
I know you?
I know where she is.
She's in trouble.
She won't perform, and she'll be punished for it,
or she'll perform to punish herself.
She with Milo?
Milo's dead, I think.
Your people killed him.
Good talkin' to you. I got shit to do.
You wanna put on a cape and save this girl,
I can leave a door open for you.
In the alley at the club.
What are you looking for, Mike?
You know I'm lookin' for a lot of things, Joseph.
And let's just save that shit for another day.
- What do you say? - You might not have another day.
None of what you're looking for is here.
Your girlfriend is probably dead by a dumpster
with a fucking needle hanging out of her arm.
Or in a rich man's bed.
That your baby?
That baby is none of your fucking business.
Then maybe you don't want to send the mother
to do your damn job.
Does Milo know that you're fucking the talent?
You're a funny guy, Mike.
Fuck off, put it down.
Tell your fuckin' boss that I know he's out...
And I'm gonna find him.
Don't bother! Fuckin' assholes.
We gon' be brothers today?
No.
Hey, where is he?
Jesus, what the fuck happened to you?
Jesus fuckin' Christ, Bunny.
Looks like the plan's workin', huh?
I got no humor, Mike. Not...
Not a fuckin' lick.
You thought I wasn't gon' hear?
Huh?
They raid my home, they terrorize my family,
and you don't tell me.
I didn't know about it, Bunny.
Fuck you didn't know, Mike?
You need to know. You needed me.
You too chicken shit to talk straight.
I thought we was past that.
Let's not make this about friends, all right?
We're not friends.
Yeah, that's for damn sure.
This will break down, Mike.
Might not be no comin' back from this shit.
Get me the fuck outta here,
or there's gonna be some payback.
And no, I don't mean no fuckin' guards on the inside.
Or them cops on the street. Nuh-uh, nuh-uh.
This shit's gonna hit close to home.
All right, come on. Let's not go there.
You already fuckin' did, Mike.
You have to understand this is not me.
It was fucking KPD.
What good are you, Mike?
You can't even control your own people.
This wasn't supposed to happen, you understand me?
I done my piece. All right?
You got 48 hours. Get my ass back on the street.
I'm workin' on mine.
You know my shit damn near fucking ended today?
Get me the fuck outta here, Mike.
I'll make it happen.
You can't protect me.
My people, nah.
So I gotta do it.
Get me the fuck outta here.
You owe me that.
You fucking owe me, Mike.
Nobody touches fucking Bunny.
Okay, I want you to make it your personal fuckin' mission.
He is the biggest swingin' dick on this yard, Mike.
He's an ally and he made good on his end.
Okay, so whatever the fuck happens to him now...
happens to you.
Understand?
He gets hurt, you're gonna get hurt.
He bleeds, you bleed.
Yeah.
This motherfuckin'...
Fuck.
