1
00:00:10,683 --> 00:00:12,851
One, two. One, two, three.

2
00:00:14,812 --> 00:00:17,272
Hey, switch it up. See that
shit coming from a mile away.

3
00:00:17,355 --> 00:00:20,400
- Stop cursing at me.
- Oh, now you sound like your old man.

4
00:00:20,483 --> 00:00:22,170
Don't start with that
"sweet Christmas" shit.

5
00:00:22,194 --> 00:00:24,487
Give me four! Let's go! Harder!

6
00:00:24,572 --> 00:00:27,032
Where's your offense?
This ain't patty-cake!

7
00:00:27,115 --> 00:00:30,285
Yeah! Yeah, that's that shit.

8
00:00:30,368 --> 00:00:31,954
Give me five and an uppercut.

9
00:00:32,037 --> 00:00:33,664
Let's go!

10
00:00:33,747 --> 00:00:34,907
Keep it going, keep it going.

11
00:00:35,791 --> 00:00:37,125
Should've stuck to football, huh?

12
00:00:37,876 --> 00:00:39,002
Time!

13
00:00:41,046 --> 00:00:43,340
Why are you doing this, Carl?

14
00:00:43,423 --> 00:00:45,801
'Cause some fool smacked you
up in front of a bowling alley?

15
00:00:45,884 --> 00:00:47,636
You're gonna get yourself killed.

16
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,054
Uh-uh.

17
00:00:49,137 --> 00:00:52,766
I'mma get this dude,
Willis. It's about respect.

18
00:00:52,850 --> 00:00:54,351
We're city champs, Carl.

19
00:00:55,435 --> 00:00:57,270
My arm, your legs.

20
00:00:58,396 --> 00:00:59,940
Got nothin' to prove, all right?

21
00:01:00,858 --> 00:01:02,627
You're runnin' around
here acting stupid, man.

22
00:01:02,651 --> 00:01:05,028
- Get yourself hurt.
- You wouldn't understand.

23
00:01:05,112 --> 00:01:07,740
I can't let it slide. I'm a Lucas.

24
00:01:14,955 --> 00:01:17,165
Daddy ain't signing off on this.

25
00:01:17,249 --> 00:01:18,626
You're alone.

26
00:01:20,753 --> 00:01:23,672
- I still got you in my corner?
- Always.

27
00:01:23,756 --> 00:01:25,633
Then I'm not alone.

28
00:01:29,637 --> 00:01:30,763
I'm ready.

29
00:01:33,766 --> 00:01:35,433
You ain't ready, Carl.

30
00:01:50,365 --> 00:01:51,700
Surprise, Carl.

31
00:01:51,784 --> 00:01:53,994
This suit's Hammer
tech, made just for you.

32
00:01:58,081 --> 00:01:59,708
You still ain't ready.

00:03:28,505 --> 00:03:30,632
Hey! NYPD.

35
00:03:30,716 --> 00:03:32,259
Back! Back!

36
00:03:36,847 --> 00:03:38,223
Shit.

37
00:03:38,306 --> 00:03:39,432
Where's my phone?

38
00:03:39,516 --> 00:03:42,895
Yo, Farley, bring the
camera. The 4K one.

39
00:03:42,978 --> 00:03:44,521
Luke Cage is going at it.

40
00:03:48,608 --> 00:03:50,360
You still hit like a bitch.

41
00:03:58,035 --> 00:03:59,828
- The folder.
- You don't have it?

42
00:03:59,912 --> 00:04:02,039
It's back there.

43
00:04:03,331 --> 00:04:05,208
Don't sweat it.

44
00:04:05,292 --> 00:04:06,919
I have another play.

45
00:04:10,588 --> 00:04:12,090
Alex...

46
00:04:12,174 --> 00:04:14,802
Luke Cage is up on Malcolm X Boulevard.

47
00:04:14,885 --> 00:04:18,764
Call Thembi Wallace.
Don't ask why. Just do it.

48
00:04:18,847 --> 00:04:20,682
Tell her I'm out here.

49
00:04:23,518 --> 00:04:26,438
- Where you going?
- Misty's gonna arrest me.

50
00:04:26,521 --> 00:04:29,191
There's no way around it.
But I can still spin this.

51
00:04:33,570 --> 00:04:36,949
You have to let go of the past
before I really have to hurt you.

52
00:04:38,075 --> 00:04:39,284
Negro, please.

53
00:04:51,088 --> 00:04:53,340
That's all you got?
Where's your offense?

54
00:05:11,441 --> 00:05:13,401
Keep it coming, Carl.

55
00:05:13,485 --> 00:05:15,320
You reap what you sow.

56
00:05:17,114 --> 00:05:20,700
As the situation continues to
unfold here on Malcolm X Boulevard...

57
00:05:22,535 --> 00:05:24,204
I know you want to be out there.

58
00:05:24,287 --> 00:05:26,039
Luke told you to stay here.

59
00:05:26,123 --> 00:05:28,791
He has a reason, and I agree with him.

60
00:05:28,876 --> 00:05:31,086
I know you both worry about me.

61
00:05:32,629 --> 00:05:34,089
None of your business.

62
00:05:36,216 --> 00:05:39,177
Your eyes sparkle when
you talk about Luke...

63
00:05:39,261 --> 00:05:41,221
what he brings out in you.

64
00:05:41,304 --> 00:05:42,890
He's alone.

65
00:05:43,848 --> 00:05:46,809
Not that many people have
his back. He needs me.

66
00:05:47,769 --> 00:05:49,312
What? What happened?

67
00:05:49,396 --> 00:05:53,150
Luke and Diamondback
are... doing what they do.

68
00:05:54,317 --> 00:05:56,028
I'm getting back out there.

69
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,613
I... I wanna help.

70
00:05:59,656 --> 00:06:02,409
Uh, you can bring down
Mariah with what you know.

71
00:06:02,492 --> 00:06:06,704
You are helping. Just wait
for Misty, stay strong,

72
00:06:06,788 --> 00:06:07,998
and stay ready.

73
00:06:08,916 --> 00:06:11,251
I've never been good at
standing up for myself.

74
00:06:11,334 --> 00:06:13,253
Neither was I...

75
00:06:13,336 --> 00:06:14,587
until it counted.

76
00:06:15,547 --> 00:06:17,340
You're even stronger than you know.

77
00:06:18,425 --> 00:06:19,968
Never doubt that.

78
00:06:20,843 --> 00:06:21,886
Careful.

79
00:06:25,140 --> 00:06:26,724
Always.

80
00:06:39,029 --> 00:06:40,572
Come on, Luke.

81
00:06:53,168 --> 00:06:55,337
Don't forget to breathe, Carl.

82
00:06:56,546 --> 00:06:58,066
Exhale on every punch.

83
00:06:58,590 --> 00:07:01,218
No breath, no oxygen.
No oxygen, no energy.

84
00:07:01,301 --> 00:07:03,553
No energy, no victory. You lose.

85
00:07:11,769 --> 00:07:12,812
Come on, guys.

86
00:07:14,772 --> 00:07:16,733
Back up!

87
00:07:35,668 --> 00:07:37,462
Come on, now! Get on back in!

88
00:07:37,545 --> 00:07:39,006
Let's go. Keep rolling.

89
00:07:39,089 --> 00:07:41,091
Kick his ass, Cage!

90
00:07:45,971 --> 00:07:47,055
Oh!

91
00:07:47,139 --> 00:07:49,474
Where you going, Carl?

92
00:07:49,557 --> 00:07:52,644
I'mma whoop your ass
up and down the block.

93
00:08:00,902 --> 00:08:02,737
Come on, Luke!

94
00:08:07,867 --> 00:08:09,411
Hold him back, man!

95
00:08:10,578 --> 00:08:12,664
Yeah, come on. Where you going, Carl?

96
00:08:40,108 --> 00:08:41,919
- Come on, Luke!
- You can get him, Luke!

97
00:08:41,943 --> 00:08:43,611
James never loved Etta.

98
00:08:43,695 --> 00:08:46,031
He was gonna leave your mother for mine.

99
00:08:46,114 --> 00:08:49,034
Wait, wait, wait. Yo, the dude's
talking about your moms, Luke?

100
00:08:49,117 --> 00:08:51,536
You reppin' Harlem, you
better put it on him, son.

101
00:08:54,956 --> 00:08:59,169
I'll take being a bastard over
being a mistake any day of the week.

102
00:08:59,252 --> 00:09:02,922
Now the whole world
gets to watch you fall.

103
00:09:03,965 --> 00:09:06,051
White, Thomas...

104
00:09:07,177 --> 00:09:08,428
spread out.

105
00:09:08,511 --> 00:09:10,722
As soon as you have a clear
shot, take it on my command.

106
00:09:10,805 --> 00:09:13,391
- Yes, sir.
- Mario, what the hell are you doing?

107
00:09:17,145 --> 00:09:18,896
Finish him off, Luke!

108
00:09:19,606 --> 00:09:22,067
Come on, Luke! You can get him!

109
00:09:22,150 --> 00:09:23,693
Cage, you da man!

110
00:09:23,776 --> 00:09:25,653
Hey, Luke! Show him who's boss!

111
00:09:32,619 --> 00:09:33,995
Who is this man?

112
00:09:34,079 --> 00:09:37,165
Did he sweep Pop's Barber Shop,

113
00:09:37,249 --> 00:09:40,335
or is he former-cop-turned-criminal,
Carl Lucas,

114
00:09:40,418 --> 00:09:43,255
who I heard escaped from
Seagate Prison? I don't know.

115
00:09:43,338 --> 00:09:45,715
I mean, look at these super freaks.

116
00:09:49,594 --> 00:09:54,099
This is nothing less than a
battle for the soul of Harlem.

117
00:09:55,725 --> 00:09:57,977
You got this, Luke.
Throw it back at him.

118
00:09:58,060 --> 00:09:59,604
Come on, Luke. Get him. Kick his ass!

119
00:10:01,523 --> 00:10:04,817
Yeah! Kick his ass, Luke! Kick his ass!

120
00:10:08,571 --> 00:10:10,282
Yeah, do it! Break that shit!

121
00:10:10,365 --> 00:10:11,991
That's what I'm talkin' about!

122
00:10:12,074 --> 00:10:13,493
Roll, roll, roll.

123
00:10:27,924 --> 00:10:30,427
Ma'am, please step back.

124
00:10:30,510 --> 00:10:31,969
Claire.

125
00:10:34,139 --> 00:10:35,890
Look, you gotta stay back.

126
00:10:36,808 --> 00:10:38,893
I gotta contain you
and everybody else, too.

127
00:10:39,561 --> 00:10:40,853
You don't believe he can win?

128
00:10:42,021 --> 00:10:44,357
Of course Luke can win.

129
00:10:45,192 --> 00:10:48,236
I'm done, Willis. I'm
not doing this anymore.

130
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,989
You ain't done. Not
till one of us is dead.

131
00:10:52,073 --> 00:10:53,991
You're more like Dad than you think.

132
00:10:55,660 --> 00:10:58,037
When I got shipped to Seagate...

133
00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,831
he called me a mistake, too.

134
00:11:00,832 --> 00:11:02,709
I'm not paying for his sins anymore.

135
00:11:02,792 --> 00:11:04,586
And neither should you.

136
00:11:06,296 --> 00:11:07,464
You want me dead?

137
00:11:08,381 --> 00:11:09,466
Then kill me.

138
00:11:10,383 --> 00:11:11,634
Do it!

139
00:11:14,221 --> 00:11:15,722
You ain't ready.

140
00:11:20,059 --> 00:11:22,645
Throw in the jab! Move!
Keep moving, keep moving!

141
00:11:30,653 --> 00:11:31,880
Take the hits! Take the hits!

142
00:11:31,904 --> 00:11:33,698
Let him get tired!

143
00:11:33,781 --> 00:11:35,825
Save him.

144
00:11:37,577 --> 00:11:38,703
No.

145
00:11:42,039 --> 00:11:43,919
You can take it. Keep
breathing, keep breathing!

146
00:11:50,047 --> 00:11:52,693
Let him get tired. He ain't
got shit to come back with.

147
00:12:01,893 --> 00:12:04,354
Come on, son! You can do it!

148
00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:10,026
- Come on, Luke.
- Don't give up, Luke!

149
00:12:10,109 --> 00:12:12,570
Luke, come on, man!

150
00:12:15,031 --> 00:12:16,408
You got it, Luke!

151
00:12:23,415 --> 00:12:25,500
Remember who you are.

152
00:12:30,838 --> 00:12:34,426
Luke! Luke! Luke! Luke!

153
00:12:44,060 --> 00:12:47,021
Luke! Luke! Luke!

154
00:12:49,148 --> 00:12:50,317
You're right.

155
00:12:51,568 --> 00:12:52,902
You reap what you sow.

156
00:12:52,985 --> 00:12:55,863
Let's go! Put it on him! Put it on him!

157
00:13:01,328 --> 00:13:03,287
Am I my brother's keeper?

158
00:13:09,126 --> 00:13:10,462
No, I'm not.

159
00:13:11,379 --> 00:13:12,964
Yeah!

160
00:13:15,132 --> 00:13:16,175
Yeah!

161
00:13:17,802 --> 00:13:20,137
Luke! Luke! Luke!

162
00:13:25,477 --> 00:13:29,188
On the ground, now! We
got Judas bullets, Cage.

163
00:13:32,650 --> 00:13:34,193
Lieutenant, stand down.

164
00:13:36,446 --> 00:13:37,780
I got you.

165
00:13:39,323 --> 00:13:41,033
Councilwoman Dillard...

166
00:13:42,118 --> 00:13:43,160
What?

167
00:13:43,244 --> 00:13:46,956
You are under arrest for
the murder of Cornell Stokes.

168
00:13:47,039 --> 00:13:48,799
- You goin' down.
- Do the perp walk.

169
00:13:48,875 --> 00:13:51,669
- You are going down.
- Take her out of here.

170
00:13:59,594 --> 00:14:03,055
Mmm, mmm, mmm.

171
00:14:03,139 --> 00:14:06,142
Oh, come on. You're not
even gonna try to move?

172
00:14:06,225 --> 00:14:08,478
Not even a lil' bit?

173
00:14:10,772 --> 00:14:12,314
Take his tired...

174
00:14:13,274 --> 00:14:14,859
broken...

175
00:14:14,942 --> 00:14:17,362
false-preachin' ass on out of here.

176
00:14:33,335 --> 00:14:35,797
I should be healed up in
a couple of hours, right?

177
00:14:37,048 --> 00:14:39,008
Sooner than that, Power Man.

178
00:14:43,555 --> 00:14:45,390
Nah, B.

179
00:14:46,307 --> 00:14:48,435
Brother deserves discretion.

180
00:14:59,946 --> 00:15:01,489
How did you know...

181
00:15:03,074 --> 00:15:04,784
that you could do that?

182
00:15:06,869 --> 00:15:08,079
The more I hit him...

183
00:15:08,996 --> 00:15:10,415
the more he dished out.

184
00:15:11,499 --> 00:15:13,084
So I stopped feeding him hate.

185
00:15:15,962 --> 00:15:17,547
What if it didn't work?

186
00:15:19,591 --> 00:15:22,176
Well, sometimes you gotta
throw out the science and...

187
00:15:23,177 --> 00:15:25,137
go for what you know.

188
00:15:25,221 --> 00:15:26,889
You heard me say that?

189
00:15:28,015 --> 00:15:29,767
I hear everything you say.

190
00:15:31,352 --> 00:15:32,937
Even when you don't speak...

191
00:15:34,271 --> 00:15:35,440
Still hear it.

192
00:15:35,523 --> 00:15:37,066
Luke Cage!

193
00:15:37,859 --> 00:15:40,069
Thanks for keeping Harlem safe, baby.

194
00:15:51,038 --> 00:15:54,166
I'm sorry, Luke. I'm
gonna need to bring you in.

195
00:15:54,876 --> 00:15:56,335
I need a statement.

196
00:15:57,545 --> 00:15:59,046
I'm done running.

197
00:15:59,130 --> 00:16:01,132
How many of these you own, brother?

198
00:16:06,428 --> 00:16:09,474
Looks like this place don't
wanna be a barber shop anymore.

199
00:16:13,770 --> 00:16:15,021
Maybe not.

200
00:16:16,355 --> 00:16:18,608
But whatever it is,
it's gonna be famous.

201
00:16:19,526 --> 00:16:23,029
People are gonna be talking about
what went down here for years.

202
00:16:25,698 --> 00:16:27,033
You ready?

203
00:16:29,786 --> 00:16:31,829
You know how I feel about cop shops.

204
00:16:32,914 --> 00:16:34,206
Well...

205
00:16:34,290 --> 00:16:35,792
if it's any comfort,

206
00:16:35,875 --> 00:16:39,086
you'll have a front-row seat when
I nail Mariah's ass to the wall.

207
00:16:43,007 --> 00:16:44,425
How's Candace?

208
00:16:45,342 --> 00:16:47,970
Safe and secure at my mom's place.

209
00:16:49,013 --> 00:16:51,015
- Promise.
- Good.

210
00:16:51,098 --> 00:16:53,601
All these people were
talking bad about Luke Cage.

211
00:16:53,685 --> 00:16:56,437
But they didn't stop for one minute
to look at the good he had done.

212
00:16:56,521 --> 00:17:00,692
Cleaning up Crispus Attucks by
himself, lookin' out for people...

213
00:17:00,775 --> 00:17:03,110
Most of these guys wear spandex.

214
00:17:03,194 --> 00:17:06,322
Who would have thought a black
man in a hoodie would be a hero?

215
00:17:07,239 --> 00:17:09,742
It's been an extraordinary
night here in Harlem.

216
00:17:09,826 --> 00:17:12,620
See? I'm not the type of person

217
00:17:12,704 --> 00:17:16,207
who wants always to say, "I am right."

218
00:17:16,290 --> 00:17:17,959
- But...
- I'm glad you're right.

219
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,101
There he is. There's Luke.

220
00:17:37,562 --> 00:17:40,272
Hey, back it off. Back!

221
00:17:40,356 --> 00:17:42,650
Mr. Cage, how does it feel to be a hero?

222
00:17:42,734 --> 00:17:44,318
I'm no hero. I'm a regular guy,

223
00:17:44,401 --> 00:17:48,155
just trying to live life on his
own terms, one day at a time.

224
00:17:48,239 --> 00:17:49,406
Are you single?

225
00:17:49,490 --> 00:17:51,635
Do you have anything to
say to Councilwoman Dillard?

226
00:17:53,578 --> 00:17:55,347
Have you received any medical treatment?

227
00:17:55,371 --> 00:17:57,211
How does it feel to be vindicated?

228
00:18:03,963 --> 00:18:05,882
You can take a seat.

229
00:18:08,342 --> 00:18:09,385
Mr. Cage.

230
00:18:11,345 --> 00:18:13,139
My name is Inspector Priscilla Ridley.

231
00:18:13,222 --> 00:18:16,058
You realize there is a warrant
still out for your arrest.

232
00:18:16,976 --> 00:18:20,062
I do. I came here to clear things up.

233
00:18:20,980 --> 00:18:23,983
I haven't done any of the things
that I've been charged with.

234
00:18:24,066 --> 00:18:26,443
Even the dash cam video that
everyone's talking about?

235
00:18:26,527 --> 00:18:28,821
I'd like to provide some context.

236
00:18:30,281 --> 00:18:31,699
Would you like an attorney?

237
00:18:32,700 --> 00:18:34,076
I know a really good one.

238
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,620
I'm not guilty of anything.

239
00:18:36,746 --> 00:18:38,247
I'll speak for myself.

240
00:18:51,468 --> 00:18:53,888
- Interrogation One?
- No.

241
00:18:54,806 --> 00:18:57,599
As far as I'm concerned,
he's no longer a suspect.

242
00:18:57,684 --> 00:18:59,936
And we both know if he
doesn't wanna be, he'll walk.

243
00:19:00,019 --> 00:19:02,104
Procedure says he should be in a room.

244
00:19:02,188 --> 00:19:04,691
He won't go for a room.

245
00:19:04,774 --> 00:19:07,484
Look, we can do it right
here, right now. It's fine.

246
00:19:07,568 --> 00:19:09,195
What about your sororal?

247
00:19:09,278 --> 00:19:12,573
You gonna let her just
skee-wee on out of here again?

248
00:19:12,657 --> 00:19:14,450
Actually, it's "ooh-woop..."

249
00:19:14,533 --> 00:19:17,453
and no, she's not going anywhere, but...

250
00:19:17,536 --> 00:19:21,874
we are showing her every
courtesy the NYPD extends...

251
00:19:21,958 --> 00:19:23,375
very slowly.

252
00:19:28,756 --> 00:19:30,925
I want my goddamn phone call!

253
00:19:31,843 --> 00:19:34,136
Okay, Mama. All right.

254
00:19:35,805 --> 00:19:37,598
Hmm.

255
00:19:40,601 --> 00:19:42,144
This ends here.

256
00:19:46,315 --> 00:19:47,566
You got it?

257
00:19:49,568 --> 00:19:51,821
I already said you
don't need to be here.

258
00:19:51,904 --> 00:19:53,489
I'm fine where I am.

259
00:19:54,406 --> 00:19:56,533
If Claire leaves, I leave.

260
00:19:56,617 --> 00:20:00,287
So be it. I'm not being
redundant. I'm just being thorough.

261
00:20:01,497 --> 00:20:02,623
Luke is innocent.

262
00:20:02,707 --> 00:20:06,418
Claire, I got this. I'm good.

263
00:20:06,502 --> 00:20:08,129
I know you do. It's just frustrating.

264
00:20:09,922 --> 00:20:11,632
Officer Albini in the park?

265
00:20:11,716 --> 00:20:14,218
I wasn't even in the state.

266
00:20:14,301 --> 00:20:15,762
Claire and I went to Georgia.

267
00:20:15,845 --> 00:20:17,554
What were you doing in Georgia?

268
00:20:18,472 --> 00:20:19,807
Unfinished business.

269
00:20:19,891 --> 00:20:21,642
You said no more secrets.

270
00:20:28,607 --> 00:20:30,067
You don't have any scars.

271
00:20:30,151 --> 00:20:31,986
The doctor who did this to me...

272
00:20:32,904 --> 00:20:36,866
with Claire's help, did
it again, and I got better.

273
00:20:36,949 --> 00:20:40,661
The officer in the park? Damon Boone?

274
00:20:41,620 --> 00:20:45,207
Just match the fist prints from the
suit and gloves that Stryker was wearing.

275
00:20:45,291 --> 00:20:46,625
All of that was Stryker.

276
00:20:46,708 --> 00:20:48,669
Why didn't you just come to me?

277
00:20:48,753 --> 00:20:49,962
I didn't know you.

278
00:20:50,963 --> 00:20:52,256
I stayed out of it.

279
00:20:52,339 --> 00:20:54,425
Until you were right
in the center of it.

280
00:20:54,508 --> 00:20:55,885
They killed Pop.

281
00:20:57,136 --> 00:20:58,262
They did.

282
00:20:59,764 --> 00:21:03,017
I couldn't just lay in the cut anymore.

283
00:21:04,226 --> 00:21:05,812
Pop knew about my abilities.

284
00:21:06,813 --> 00:21:08,355
So I put them to good use.

285
00:21:08,439 --> 00:21:11,067
I shut down Crispus Attucks personally.

286
00:21:13,569 --> 00:21:15,029
That wasn't your job.

287
00:21:15,112 --> 00:21:21,577
People needed someone that didn't require
a warrant or shield to get things done.

288
00:21:21,660 --> 00:21:25,622
Call it a vigilante, or a superhero...

289
00:21:25,706 --> 00:21:27,041
Call it what you will, but...

290
00:21:27,959 --> 00:21:29,376
like it or not,

291
00:21:29,460 --> 00:21:33,881
I finally accepted that
that someone had to be me.

292
00:21:33,965 --> 00:21:35,549
Maybe I could've helped you.

293
00:21:35,632 --> 00:21:37,969
This burden is bigger than you.

294
00:21:38,886 --> 00:21:40,262
Or me.

295
00:21:40,346 --> 00:21:42,014
People are scared...

296
00:21:42,974 --> 00:21:46,143
but they can't be
paralyzed by that fear.

297
00:21:46,227 --> 00:21:49,771
You have to fight for what's
right every single day,

298
00:21:49,856 --> 00:21:51,816
bulletproof skin or not.

299
00:21:51,899 --> 00:21:56,070
You can't just not snitch, or turn
away or take money under the table

300
00:21:56,153 --> 00:21:58,114
because life has turned you sour.

301
00:21:58,197 --> 00:21:59,991
When did people stop caring?

302
00:22:00,074 --> 00:22:05,704
Harlem is supposed to
represent our hopes and dreams.

303
00:22:05,787 --> 00:22:08,290
It's the pinnacle of black art...

304
00:22:08,374 --> 00:22:09,876
politics...

305
00:22:09,959 --> 00:22:11,460
innovation.

306
00:22:12,837 --> 00:22:15,631
It's supposed to be a
shining light to the world.

307
00:22:17,008 --> 00:22:20,677
It's our responsibility to push forward,

308
00:22:20,761 --> 00:22:24,515
so that the next generation
will be further along than us.

309
00:22:24,598 --> 00:22:28,727
Pop said his mantra aloud twice a day.

310
00:22:28,810 --> 00:22:30,938
The kids in the shop were pissed...

311
00:22:31,898 --> 00:22:33,941
but they could never unhear it.

312
00:22:34,025 --> 00:22:35,817
"Never backwards..."

313
00:22:35,902 --> 00:22:37,194
Always...

314
00:22:38,404 --> 00:22:39,530
forward.

315
00:22:39,613 --> 00:22:40,697
"Forward..."

316
00:22:40,781 --> 00:22:42,074
"Always."

317
00:22:45,077 --> 00:22:47,413
You forget I grew up around the man.

318
00:22:47,496 --> 00:22:49,206
I wish I could've met him.

319
00:22:49,916 --> 00:22:51,458
In a way, you have.

320
00:22:55,504 --> 00:22:57,339
Well, hello!

321
00:22:57,423 --> 00:22:59,133
Doesn't everybody have work to do?

322
00:23:01,593 --> 00:23:03,429
Is Mariah still in there?

323
00:23:04,555 --> 00:23:05,597
Yeah.

324
00:23:05,681 --> 00:23:08,809
Well, now that I'm
no longer a suspect...

325
00:23:09,726 --> 00:23:11,187
you guys got any take-out menus?

326
00:23:12,854 --> 00:23:13,940
I'm starving.

327
00:23:14,856 --> 00:23:17,901
You know, I kept telling
Cornell it was enough.

328
00:23:19,195 --> 00:23:23,615
He had enough money to keep
Harlem's Paradise flush.

329
00:23:25,117 --> 00:23:27,661
Even for opening
another club downtown...

330
00:23:28,829 --> 00:23:31,248
like our grandmother
always talked about.

331
00:23:35,586 --> 00:23:38,047
He had the talent to make it big.

332
00:23:40,924 --> 00:23:45,054
But there was always
another deal, another detail.

333
00:23:45,137 --> 00:23:48,182
And then this... this guy, Diamond Jim.

334
00:23:48,265 --> 00:23:49,641
Diamondback.

335
00:23:50,434 --> 00:23:52,561
Yes, Diamondback.

336
00:23:54,230 --> 00:23:57,399
Cornell said that he
was his direct contact,

337
00:23:57,483 --> 00:23:58,900
whatever that means.

338
00:23:58,985 --> 00:24:02,613
And he was pissed off when
those guns were stolen.

339
00:24:02,696 --> 00:24:07,284
You know, in that... that thing that
your Detective Scarfe got caught up in?

340
00:24:08,035 --> 00:24:09,870
There were a lot of dirty hands.

341
00:24:10,454 --> 00:24:11,913
Not Cornell's.

342
00:24:11,998 --> 00:24:14,708
- He didn't have the guns.
- Oh, yes, he did.

343
00:24:15,626 --> 00:24:18,045
That's why Detective Scarfe got shot.

344
00:24:18,962 --> 00:24:21,965
Detective Scarfe stole
them from evidence

345
00:24:22,049 --> 00:24:24,343
and then gave them back to Cornell.

346
00:24:24,426 --> 00:24:27,054
I don't know any details.

347
00:24:27,138 --> 00:24:31,683
I just know that Cornell
was scared and he wanted out.

348
00:24:31,767 --> 00:24:34,936
And the night when I came into the club,

349
00:24:35,021 --> 00:24:39,025
that big brother that was fighting
Luke Cage up on Malcolm X...

350
00:24:39,108 --> 00:24:43,320
"Hey," I screamed, and he... he
pulled a gun on me and said that...

351
00:24:43,404 --> 00:24:47,616
if I didn't say it was Luke
Cage, he was gonna kill me.

352
00:24:48,992 --> 00:24:50,119
He said Luke Cage?

353
00:24:50,202 --> 00:24:53,289
- That it had to be Luke Cage?
- Yes.

354
00:24:53,372 --> 00:24:56,792
He was firm about that. Luke Cage. Yes!

355
00:24:57,584 --> 00:25:01,297
- And Candace Miller?
- Oh, God. Candace.

356
00:25:02,214 --> 00:25:05,717
She tried to protect me,
but she didn't have to.

357
00:25:08,595 --> 00:25:10,389
I feel terrible...

358
00:25:10,472 --> 00:25:12,891
that a decent man's
name has been maligned,

359
00:25:12,974 --> 00:25:17,604
but I will do whatever I need
to to rectify that. I will.

360
00:25:22,984 --> 00:25:25,362
You are absolutely
goddamn right you will.

361
00:25:27,198 --> 00:25:29,283
Start by telling the truth.

362
00:25:32,661 --> 00:25:35,747
I am not a liar, Detective.

363
00:25:35,831 --> 00:25:36,998
Mmm.

364
00:25:37,083 --> 00:25:39,000
According to the lab...

365
00:25:39,918 --> 00:25:42,338
Cottonmouth was struck
in the back of the head

366
00:25:42,421 --> 00:25:44,548
by a heavy, circular object...

367
00:25:45,382 --> 00:25:49,636
probably consistent with a
bottle, before he was pushed.

368
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,306
How do we know he was pushed, Detective?

369
00:25:52,389 --> 00:25:53,724
The angle.

370
00:25:54,641 --> 00:25:58,104
No! No! No!

371
00:25:58,770 --> 00:26:01,440
I did not want it!

372
00:26:02,691 --> 00:26:03,692
No!

373
00:26:04,401 --> 00:26:06,903
Cottonmouth landed on his back,

374
00:26:06,987 --> 00:26:10,657
turned over, and then crawled.

375
00:26:11,575 --> 00:26:13,285
You shut up!

376
00:26:14,286 --> 00:26:15,621
No!

377
00:26:15,704 --> 00:26:19,082
No, I didn't want it!

378
00:26:19,166 --> 00:26:21,543
Judging by the wounds on his hands,

379
00:26:21,627 --> 00:26:24,421
he probably was pleading for his life

380
00:26:24,505 --> 00:26:28,884
when he was smashed by
a heavy, circular base.

381
00:26:28,967 --> 00:26:33,680
Now, the coroner thought it
was maybe a heavy waste basket.

382
00:26:33,764 --> 00:26:35,141
But my vote...

383
00:26:36,142 --> 00:26:37,851
it was a mic stand.

384
00:26:37,934 --> 00:26:41,855
I went through Harlem's Paradise
inventory records with the stage manager,

385
00:26:41,938 --> 00:26:43,690
and it turns out...

386
00:26:43,774 --> 00:26:47,528
there was a mic stand
that was unaccounted for.

387
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,157
I've been around the music
business my whole life.

388
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,992
Equipment goes missing.

389
00:26:54,075 --> 00:26:56,995
You can't trust niggas around equipment.

390
00:26:58,164 --> 00:27:00,832
Cottonmouth was weakened.

391
00:27:00,916 --> 00:27:03,960
It wouldn't take a man
to kill him in that state,

392
00:27:04,044 --> 00:27:06,630
just somebody who was angry...

393
00:27:07,548 --> 00:27:10,091
and passionate about seeing him dead.

394
00:27:11,510 --> 00:27:13,094
And...

395
00:27:13,179 --> 00:27:15,556
someone who was sloppy...

396
00:27:16,265 --> 00:27:18,016
in the cover-up.

397
00:27:23,855 --> 00:27:25,357
Mariah killed him.

398
00:27:25,441 --> 00:27:27,234
What? How do you know this?

399
00:27:27,318 --> 00:27:29,152
I heard them talking about it.

400
00:27:29,236 --> 00:27:31,363
The guy who always wears sunglasses...

401
00:27:31,447 --> 00:27:33,990
he was there, trying
to calm Mariah down.

402
00:27:37,035 --> 00:27:38,495
And that's just a taste.

403
00:27:39,162 --> 00:27:41,373
I got plenty more where that came from.

404
00:27:44,376 --> 00:27:45,419
I...

405
00:27:46,670 --> 00:27:49,298
- I'm...
- You don't have to say anything.

406
00:27:49,381 --> 00:27:51,091
Just tell the truth.

407
00:27:52,259 --> 00:27:54,177
We are right here.

408
00:27:55,512 --> 00:27:57,138
Make a deal.

409
00:27:57,223 --> 00:28:00,517
If you can help us nail
Shades and Diamondback,

410
00:28:00,601 --> 00:28:02,936
and maybe confirm some
of Cornell's contacts,

411
00:28:03,019 --> 00:28:04,605
we can make your stay...

412
00:28:05,814 --> 00:28:07,190
a little bit easier.

413
00:28:09,150 --> 00:28:10,569
That's all you got.

414
00:28:12,738 --> 00:28:16,032
Cornell liked fooling around
with them nasty-ass bitches.

415
00:28:16,116 --> 00:28:18,244
I... I had no use for chickenheads.

416
00:28:18,327 --> 00:28:19,953
You are going down.

417
00:28:20,036 --> 00:28:22,331
Go to trial with that flimsy-ass shit.

418
00:28:22,414 --> 00:28:25,959
I dare you. I double
damn dare you, trick!

419
00:28:26,042 --> 00:28:27,669
Oh! Trick?

420
00:28:28,670 --> 00:28:32,132
Whatever... Madam Inmate.

421
00:28:34,510 --> 00:28:37,137
- Misty.
- Not right now.

422
00:28:37,221 --> 00:28:38,305
Now.

423
00:28:51,026 --> 00:28:54,195
- Don't you ever, and I mean, ever...
- Misty.

424
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,740
Interrupt an interrogation.

425
00:28:56,823 --> 00:28:57,908
What is it?

426
00:28:57,991 --> 00:28:59,826
Detective Chang just caught a body.

427
00:28:59,910 --> 00:29:03,247
An African-American woman,
mid-twenties, in front of a bodega.

428
00:29:04,540 --> 00:29:07,459
The victim had a pay-as-you-go
phone in her pocket.

429
00:29:07,543 --> 00:29:09,586
I traced the phone's credit card.

430
00:29:11,087 --> 00:29:12,589
It belongs to you.

431
00:29:13,507 --> 00:29:16,927
Chang thought you might've gotten
cloned, but you bought the phone...

432
00:29:17,636 --> 00:29:19,179
and you activated it.

433
00:29:20,681 --> 00:29:21,932
And the victim...

434
00:29:22,849 --> 00:29:26,061
had numerous text exchanges
with an NYPD cell phone number.

435
00:29:27,062 --> 00:29:28,146
It's yours.

436
00:29:28,229 --> 00:29:31,400
Come on. Where are you, Misty?

437
00:29:31,483 --> 00:29:32,859
I'm right here.

438
00:29:38,073 --> 00:29:40,284
How recent were the texts?

439
00:29:42,369 --> 00:29:44,120
I lost my phone...

440
00:29:47,207 --> 00:29:48,917
at the barber shop.

441
00:29:51,795 --> 00:29:53,922
Show me the picture, Bailey.

442
00:29:54,965 --> 00:29:58,635
- We should verify with the family first.
- Show me the goddamn picture, Bailey.

443
00:29:58,719 --> 00:30:00,095
Please.

444
00:30:04,057 --> 00:30:06,893
The victim appears to be Candace Miller.

445
00:30:18,697 --> 00:30:20,449
Was that an important call, my dear?

446
00:30:20,532 --> 00:30:21,992
- You murdered her!
- Hey, hey, hey!

447
00:30:22,075 --> 00:30:23,595
- You murdered her!
- You are out of control.

448
00:30:23,619 --> 00:30:24,819
- Misty, stop!
- Get off of me!

449
00:30:24,870 --> 00:30:26,806
- You're hysterical. She's being...
- You murdered her!

450
00:30:26,830 --> 00:30:28,391
- She's being hysterical.
- You murdered Candace

451
00:30:28,415 --> 00:30:30,125
and you murdered Cornell.

452
00:30:30,208 --> 00:30:31,793
- Enough is enough!
- What?

453
00:30:31,877 --> 00:30:33,855
- What are you talking about?
- What is going on?

454
00:30:33,879 --> 00:30:35,797
Candace is dead.

455
00:30:35,881 --> 00:30:37,215
What?

456
00:30:37,298 --> 00:30:40,594
You stole my phone. I know it was you!

457
00:30:40,677 --> 00:30:43,514
You will say anything
about me, won't you?

458
00:30:43,597 --> 00:30:45,432
Where's your proof?

459
00:30:45,516 --> 00:30:47,393
I loved my cousin.

460
00:30:48,894 --> 00:30:51,312
And I would test that love

461
00:30:51,397 --> 00:30:55,401
against the recorded voice
of a dead whore any day.

462
00:30:56,192 --> 00:30:59,363
Am I still being charged with anything?

463
00:31:04,368 --> 00:31:06,202
No.

464
00:31:06,286 --> 00:31:08,288
Not at this time.

465
00:31:13,794 --> 00:31:16,212
You have the man who killed Cornell,

466
00:31:16,296 --> 00:31:19,383
Diamondback, in custody, Priscilla.

467
00:31:19,466 --> 00:31:21,051
Do the right thing.

468
00:31:21,968 --> 00:31:24,930
Keep him there. He is dangerous.

469
00:31:34,314 --> 00:31:37,192
That is the second time you
have attacked a civilian in here.

470
00:31:37,275 --> 00:31:39,528
This shield...

471
00:31:39,611 --> 00:31:41,572
ain't worth the tin it's printed on

472
00:31:41,655 --> 00:31:46,493
if Mariah Dillard can just walk
out of here after what she's done.

473
00:31:47,911 --> 00:31:50,288
- This system is broken, Priscilla.
- Mercedes...

474
00:31:50,371 --> 00:31:52,541
you are one of the finest
detectives I have ever seen,

475
00:31:52,624 --> 00:31:54,543
but you have got to learn...

476
00:31:54,626 --> 00:31:56,587
that there is no getting
around the system.

477
00:31:56,670 --> 00:31:58,088
You must work within it.

478
00:31:58,171 --> 00:32:00,632
Candace should have been
in protective custody.

479
00:32:00,716 --> 00:32:03,885
She should have been here and
I should have known about it.

480
00:32:04,803 --> 00:32:07,806
Mariah Dillard walked out
of here today because of you.

481
00:32:09,307 --> 00:32:11,101
Because you didn't trust our system.

482
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,440
Because you didn't trust me.

483
00:32:34,625 --> 00:32:36,627
Misty's been gone a long time.

484
00:32:37,628 --> 00:32:38,962
That's never good.

485
00:32:40,506 --> 00:32:41,840
No.

486
00:32:45,051 --> 00:32:47,137
We have a lot to talk about, though.

487
00:32:48,388 --> 00:32:50,516
Like what?

488
00:32:50,599 --> 00:32:52,267
Your future.

489
00:32:54,060 --> 00:32:55,311
Your next moves.

490
00:32:56,229 --> 00:32:59,065
Well, I don't wanna talk
about that right now.

491
00:33:00,776 --> 00:33:02,736
I just wanna chill.

492
00:33:03,695 --> 00:33:05,446
It's been a long day.

493
00:33:12,412 --> 00:33:14,831
You're right. It can wait.

494
00:33:15,624 --> 00:33:17,751
You wanna get coffee
when we get out of here?

495
00:33:19,460 --> 00:33:21,755
You accused me of not liking coffee.

496
00:33:22,548 --> 00:33:24,090
That's not true.

497
00:33:24,174 --> 00:33:26,301
Just depends on the blend.

498
00:33:28,011 --> 00:33:32,808
I hear that Cuban coffee
is particularly robust.

499
00:33:42,776 --> 00:33:46,029
That might be the corniest
thing you've said yet.

500
00:33:49,908 --> 00:33:52,202
It also happens to be true.

501
00:34:10,721 --> 00:34:12,347
Oh, thank you.

502
00:34:12,430 --> 00:34:14,641
Helping a sister out.

503
00:34:17,728 --> 00:34:20,021
The hero of Harlem.

504
00:34:20,105 --> 00:34:22,065
Congratulations!

505
00:34:22,148 --> 00:34:24,651
You are good for the neighborhood.

506
00:34:24,735 --> 00:34:26,402
You're not.

507
00:34:26,486 --> 00:34:28,154
What about our deal?

508
00:34:29,072 --> 00:34:31,449
- Where's the file?
- What file?

509
00:34:32,533 --> 00:34:33,577
Buh-bye!

510
00:34:46,673 --> 00:34:48,341
What the hell happened?

511
00:34:48,424 --> 00:34:49,926
They killed Candace.

512
00:34:50,010 --> 00:34:52,763
What? My mom...

513
00:34:52,846 --> 00:34:56,182
Not your mom. She's
fine. We checked on her.

514
00:34:57,809 --> 00:35:01,146
Shades or somebody used my phone

515
00:35:01,229 --> 00:35:03,607
to lure Candace out of the apartment.

516
00:35:04,399 --> 00:35:05,734
But I can't prove it yet.

517
00:35:05,817 --> 00:35:07,152
What about her confession?

518
00:35:07,235 --> 00:35:09,070
- It's worthless.
- Why?

519
00:35:09,154 --> 00:35:12,490
If she were still alive,
that would be one thing.

520
00:35:12,573 --> 00:35:16,620
But she admitted to
taking money from Mariah,

521
00:35:16,703 --> 00:35:19,580
she changed her statement,
and now she's dead.

522
00:35:19,665 --> 00:35:21,625
The definition of reasonable doubt.

523
00:35:21,708 --> 00:35:25,170
And the woman she's accusing
is politically connected.

524
00:35:25,253 --> 00:35:29,049
It's unwinnable. There's no
way the DA will take that case.

525
00:35:29,132 --> 00:35:31,301
That's why Ridley just kicked her.

526
00:35:33,637 --> 00:35:36,514
Mariah and Shades will talk. Trust me.

527
00:35:37,808 --> 00:35:39,517
I told her not to leave.

528
00:35:42,103 --> 00:35:43,146
I know.

529
00:35:49,027 --> 00:35:50,195
Carl Lucas,

530
00:35:50,278 --> 00:35:52,906
I'm Marshal Franco.
This is Marshal Johnson.

531
00:35:57,869 --> 00:36:01,039
You're under arrest for your
unlawful escape from Seagate Prison.

532
00:36:01,122 --> 00:36:02,248
What are you doing?

533
00:36:02,332 --> 00:36:03,667
You won't need those.

534
00:36:03,750 --> 00:36:05,919
- Says who?
- Says me.

535
00:36:06,753 --> 00:36:07,838
I'm done running.

536
00:36:07,921 --> 00:36:09,089
I'm sorry, Mr. Cage.

537
00:36:09,172 --> 00:36:12,342
I'm gonna recommend the New York City
DA's office drop all charges against you.

538
00:36:12,425 --> 00:36:13,760
I have done all I can.

539
00:36:13,844 --> 00:36:15,804
Thank you for all you've done for us.

540
00:36:15,887 --> 00:36:17,513
Luke is innocent.

541
00:36:17,597 --> 00:36:20,809
They're not arresting Luke Cage.
They're arresting Carl Lucas.

542
00:36:22,018 --> 00:36:23,311
Who called you?

543
00:36:23,394 --> 00:36:27,691
Once a city councilwoman identified
Luke Cage as Carl Lucas on television,

544
00:36:27,774 --> 00:36:29,735
our office received numerous calls.

545
00:36:29,818 --> 00:36:31,527
The information's pertinent and valid.

546
00:36:31,611 --> 00:36:34,072
Mariah, again.

547
00:36:34,155 --> 00:36:37,242
I'm innocent, and I can prove it.

548
00:36:37,325 --> 00:36:39,995
It doesn't matter what you can prove.

549
00:36:40,078 --> 00:36:42,247
You still owe the state of Georgia time.

550
00:36:43,999 --> 00:36:46,417
Okay.

551
00:36:50,839 --> 00:36:52,090
Sorry.

552
00:36:52,173 --> 00:36:54,217
Coffee's gonna have to wait, babe.

553
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:03,810
Luke.

554
00:37:32,672 --> 00:37:36,509
Like I said, I know a
really great lawyer in town.

555
00:37:36,592 --> 00:37:37,886
I'll call him.

556
00:37:37,969 --> 00:37:40,305
Okay.

557
00:37:42,515 --> 00:37:44,893
- Be careful.
- Always.

558
00:37:47,896 --> 00:37:49,605
You're so corny.

559
00:38:10,460 --> 00:38:12,963
One of the things that
was happening was...

560
00:38:43,451 --> 00:38:45,120
Alex, you're the man.

561
00:38:45,203 --> 00:38:48,123
Anything you need, Madam
Councilwoman, let me know.

562
00:38:50,083 --> 00:38:53,003
It's old school. But
it's got a nice feel.

563
00:38:54,170 --> 00:38:55,380
Belonged to Cornell.

564
00:38:56,089 --> 00:38:57,382
It suits you.

565
00:39:03,763 --> 00:39:05,181
Yeah, it does.

566
00:39:11,271 --> 00:39:12,563
Let's head up.

567
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,404
It's a long trip. You
want something to drink?

568
00:39:20,321 --> 00:39:23,366
I was set up for something hot and
dark before y'all messed that up.

569
00:39:24,868 --> 00:39:26,661
Sweet Christmas.

570
00:39:26,744 --> 00:39:30,123
Well, we can stop for coffee at
Dunkin' Donuts before we hit the bridge.

571
00:39:31,291 --> 00:39:32,918
Ain't the same.

572
00:39:33,001 --> 00:39:34,544
Let's just get this over with.

573
00:39:37,380 --> 00:39:41,301
Oh. I like Chester
Himes. This is a good one.

574
00:39:41,384 --> 00:39:42,468
It's actually mine.

575
00:39:43,636 --> 00:39:44,888
What were you reading before?

576
00:39:44,971 --> 00:39:46,973
Some West Coast shit.

577
00:39:47,057 --> 00:39:48,099
Michael Connelly.

578
00:39:48,183 --> 00:39:50,643
- You ever read Harry Bosch?
- Nah.

579
00:39:50,726 --> 00:39:52,812
Well, you'll have some time to read now.

580
00:39:54,314 --> 00:39:56,149
No, I won't.

581
00:39:56,232 --> 00:39:58,318
I don't plan on hibernating.

582
00:39:58,401 --> 00:40:00,861
I was innocent before
and I'm innocent now.

583
00:40:01,862 --> 00:40:03,489
I've got work to do.

584
00:43:34,450 --> 00:43:36,076
Sometimes backwards...

585
00:43:37,703 --> 00:43:39,372
to move forward.

586
00:43:41,332 --> 00:43:42,792
Always.

587
