That's bonus information.

Would you like a Popsicle?

No, I don't want no Popsicle.

I want to see your superior.

Hello, Devon.

My name is Captain Rubio.

I understand from Detective McKenna

that you wanted to see me.

You need me to testify

and identify, right?

Yes, Devon,

that would be very helpful.

Ma'am, I'd like to cut a deal.

[Rubio] He wants to be a cop.

What?

Shield, assignments,

squad car, the works.

And he's not gonna help us

unless he gets it.

Bring the criminal back

when you arrest him.

Don't go...

Don't go let him eat.

Just bring him to jail.

Bring him to jail!

Oh. Give me five minutes

with him alone.

Hey, uh...

So, anybody want a sip?

Guess not.

[Devon Humming]

Devon, sweetie,

why don't you just go ahead

and give us that plate number...

and then we can all go home.

Okay, make me a cop.

Why do you want to be a cop?

Look at this guy.

Raggedy-ass clothes,

20-year-old car,

bad back, bad marriage, bad attitude.

Son, does that sound like

any kind of life for anybody?

But if you were a cop,

people don't sass you.

Give us the plate number!

Nick!

I'll give you a little taste

of what I got.

A taste? Where does

he get this stuff?

Prime time.

There's a shipment

of euphoria coming in.

Tell us something we don't know.

Thursday, 10:
30.

Mm-hmm. Where?

Don't know, but I got a name.

Why is everyone gatherin' around me?

What's the name?

- I really want to give you his name.

- Mm-hmm.

You put me on duty, it's yours.

Hey, McPhail, I'm from outer space.

Listen, you've had

ride-alongs before.

No, I don't.

Yes, you have, so I want you

to take him for eight hours.

- Other guys have ride-alongs.

- Put a sock in it, Nick!

I want you to drive him around

for eight hours,

let him hit the siren

a couple of times, humor him.

What is the problem with this?

- I don't get along with kids.

- I don't care.

- I don't like them, they don't like me.

- Nobody cares.

You can't have any fun with a kid.

You take a kid to a bar, he has

one drink, he falls off his stool.

What?

You gave me such a

wonderful present today.

You gave me two destroyed lawns,

a Weber grill, a chaise lounge...

- I gave you a perp.

- Reckless endangerment. You owe me.

I don't owe you nothin'!

I don't owe you nothin'!

You owe me this thing, Nick!

Nick, when you get home, you want to

check and see how the blues fit?

- Are they a little snug under the belt?

- [Slams Table]

- Hello, I'm detective...

- Baby!

Oh, baby.

I told them not to call.

Oh, you had me scared to death!

Mrs. Baldwin, hi.

I'm Captain Rubio.

Yes, yes.

As I explained, young Devon here

witnessed a murder earlier this evening.

- Fortunately, he wasn't harmed.
