and I don't punish anybody.

Just call me with my money.

Get the bomb unit online,

send 'em a still.

I want an ID on that kid immediately.

I'm on with missing persons.

Turner, can you get a screen grab

of the child sent to CPS?

Today at 12 noon, Detective Thompson.

Meet me at the event at the Colosseum.

You go to window, ticket in your name.

You deliver money in backpack.

I give you his location and address.

No die packs, no marked bills.

No police.

I see them, he dies.

We can get a warrant for the server

records but it'll take some time.

How long?

We don't know. Days, weeks.

Bomb unit's saying that the wiring,

the detonator are all Russian

military and very powerful.

How powerful?

They're saying that there's a kill

radius of approximately 40 yards.

Can they disarm it?

There's a five-way latching

mechanism right there.

It's probably wired to set it off

if anyone attempts to remove it.

Also saying that there is

possibly a second phantom switch.

But those aren't our only problems.

He can detonate that bomb wherever

and whenever he wants to...

...with a phone call.

We have a tactical team

on standby if needed.

We have officers from the

gang unit who speak Russian,

and special ops working

undercover in the arena.

Let me take him,

I'll get the kid's location.

He'll lawyer up in ten minutes.

It won't take that long.

Listen, Ray, you've been

sittin' on this for a year.

If this does not go by the book,

it's not gonna look good.

And you're gonna be on the hook for it.

Do you really wanna see that headline?

"Dead Kid, Rogue Cop."

How many threats does

this department get a week?

We investigate half of 'em, we take 80

percent of our manpower off the streets.

You know that, I know that.

The mayor, the media, you think they care?

They're gonna want heads and yours

is gonna be the first to roll.

You're a bag man, nothing more.

You carry the bag and get your tickets.

See where they take ya.

We'll have eyes on you

and the bag the entire time.

We'll have officers throughout the arena.

When he calls in the victim's location,

we'll take him down.

Do we understand each other?

Ray, do we understand each other?

- Yes.

- Good.

$2,000,112.35.

What's the $112.35?

We've got a GPS transmitter

in the bag's lining.

We're actually gonna pay this guy?

- For now.

- Great.

What can go wrong?

Ticket for Ray Thompson.

- Here you go, Mr. Thompson.

- Thank you.

Can we get a better connection?

Trying.

Getting interference from all the WiFi.

You're down there, sir.

Go ahead.

I think you're in my seat.

Hey, you left your phone.

It's not mine, dude.

The Ascension.

Kendricks, he knows you're a cop.
