Bulger still thinks

it's the driving.

What do you think?

I don't know.

Maybe Trent's not carrying

enough speed into the corners.

I don't know. God, if I could

just get to the driver's seat--

Oh, you can't do that

to yourself, no.

I just can't get

this team to gel.

It's like they're all speakin'

a different language.

You're letting it consume you.

This is all I am, baby.

If I can't make this work..

...what's left for me?

Hey.

You're Rick Radden.

[scoffs]

Look, I know that

you wanna trust your team

but you need to trust yourself.

Yeah, I hear you, babe.

[sighs]

[scoffs]

Oh, man.

'You come to lecture me?'

- Would it do any good?

- I didn't do anything.

You didn't steal the Rolls

and lead an officer on a chase?

Or you crashed a patrol car.

That sounds like me.

[chuckles]

But, nope. Wasn't me.

Look familiar?

[scoffs]

Yeah. A long time ago now.

You were the smartest,

most talented kid in that bunch.

Remember Richter?

[chuckles]

Yeah, Rick. He sucked.

Well, he's working in a repair

shop down in Crenshaw now.

And, uh, Lin Pao,

he's a detailer.

Drivin' around

in his own mobile unit.

Doin' pretty well

for himself too.

- Great for them.

- It is great for them.

Because they're not sittin' here

with me lookin' at jail time.

I told you, I didn't do nothing.

Well, uh..

...I've got a dash cam video

with you wavin' on it

that says otherwise.

They wanna try you

as an adult, Dez.

That means real jail time.

I can't go to no jail.

I got my sister to look after.

No, you don't anymore.

She been thrown into the system.

No one is helpin' me out there!

I tried to help you, Dez.

I brought you

into the Nexgeneracers.

I tried to give you

a sense of direction.

What can I do to get her back?

I'll do anything.

Please.

Well, I could, um, call

in a favor with the DA.

Maybe he can get you probation.

But you'd have to prove

that you can go straight

and stay employed.

If you can do that

maybe you can get

legal guardianship for her

'when you turn 18,

end of summer.'

Okay.

But who's gonna hire me?

[engine revving]

Well, that sounds like sh*t.

- Is it the timing?

- No, the timing's fine.

- I think the jetting's off.

- Yeah, I think it's the carb.

I think we gotta pull

the carb again.

Fine, pull it.

Hey, Rick, check it out.

You got some company, man.

- Freeman.

- A little engine trouble?

Ah, nothin' we can't handle.

How you doin'?

You're looking good.

Yeah, yeah.

What's goin' on?

Came by to ask you a favor.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah.

Got another Nexgeneracer I was,

uh, hopin' you could take on.

[sighs]

Now's not the best time.

We had kind of a shitty start

to the season and--
