1
00:00:03,203 --> 00:00:04,546
I've been concerned.
2
00:00:04,638 --> 00:00:07,710
Any improvement is likely a placebo effect.
3
00:00:07,875 --> 00:00:10,549
Was Tom Kane admitted to your clinic?
I need to know.
4
00:00:10,711 --> 00:00:12,213
Yes. We treated him.
5
00:00:12,479 --> 00:00:15,323
That bag you dropped,
light at least five grand.
6
00:00:16,550 --> 00:00:18,325
- Mayor Rutledge is in the hospital.
- How can I help?
7
00:00:18,385 --> 00:00:20,228
Emma is upset. I want you to take her home.
8
00:00:21,221 --> 00:00:22,666
You're stronger than this.
9
00:00:24,992 --> 00:00:27,029
Had you previously been unfaithful?
10
00:00:27,127 --> 00:00:28,367
I'm not going to answer that question, Jim.
11
00:00:28,529 --> 00:00:31,135
Don't you think we deserve to know
who our elected officials are?
12
00:00:31,231 --> 00:00:32,232
I made a fucking mistake.
13
00:00:32,533 --> 00:00:34,410
When I become the next governor,
14
00:00:34,501 --> 00:00:38,472
you and I will seldom coincide
legislatively or otherwise.
15
00:00:38,739 --> 00:00:42,152
We are fast approaching the annual vote
to cover the city's expenditures.
16
00:00:42,209 --> 00:00:43,187
There can be no push-back.
17
00:00:43,243 --> 00:00:46,247
It pains me to be the bearer of bad news.
18
00:00:46,346 --> 00:00:48,417
Is this really the legacy
you wanna leave behind, Mac?
19
00:00:48,582 --> 00:00:51,062
Of allowing the state's largest city
lo go under?
20
00:00:51,184 --> 00:00:53,494
This bond acquisition vote
provides you an opportunity
21
00:00:53,554 --> 00:00:55,033
to stimulate a wind of change.
22
00:00:55,088 --> 00:00:58,001
Sacrifice the castle to take down the king.
23
00:00:58,058 --> 00:01:00,265
Castles can be rebuilt, men cannot.
24
00:01:00,827 --> 00:01:02,738
Voting will now begin. Alderman Rosa.
25
00:01:02,930 --> 00:01:04,102
I vote nay.
26
00:01:04,264 --> 00:01:05,436
Out of the way! Out of the way!
27
00:01:07,234 --> 00:01:10,681
With a tally of 41 nays,
this measure is denied.
28
00:01:11,038 --> 00:01:12,779
McGantry. Everything you need, you have.
29
00:01:12,873 --> 00:01:14,511
I fully expect you to lock him up
30
00:01:14,575 --> 00:01:16,919
before I hand this slam-fucking-dunk
case over to the feds.
31
00:02:23,677 --> 00:02:25,623
Time. I want it.
32
00:02:26,179 --> 00:02:27,852
Don't have it to give, Tom.
33
00:02:27,948 --> 00:02:31,828
While I appreciate your coming
to Springfield in your off-hours to ask,
34
00:02:31,918 --> 00:02:33,090
there's nothing I can do.
35
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:36,526
Financial chicanery
could have lasted only so long.
36
00:02:36,623 --> 00:02:39,627
And it's to your credit
that for over a decade it did.
37
00:02:39,693 --> 00:02:42,833
But without the state bonds,
without your own Council's support,
38
00:02:43,330 --> 00:02:46,607
the city is about
to default on some hefty loans.
39
00:02:46,667 --> 00:02:48,010
Who do you think you are?
40
00:02:48,101 --> 00:02:51,207
I've called for an emergency manager.
The advance team will be there in...
41
00:02:51,304 --> 00:02:53,306
Who the fuck do you think you are?
42
00:02:54,374 --> 00:02:57,378
The governor of the goddamn state,
that's who.
43
00:02:59,346 --> 00:03:03,055
You have no idea.
44
00:03:10,991 --> 00:03:12,402
How is he?
45
00:03:15,462 --> 00:03:17,499
I'm not sure you have the right to know.
46
00:03:17,564 --> 00:03:18,804
Excuse me?
47
00:03:18,865 --> 00:03:22,176
I spoke to his nurse. Nadeem, I believe.
48
00:03:22,235 --> 00:03:24,078
He suggested you could have
had something to do with it.
49
00:03:24,171 --> 00:03:26,674
That, for whatever reason,
50
00:03:26,740 --> 00:03:30,153
you may have withheld your grandfather's
medication, causing him to fall.
51
00:03:30,243 --> 00:03:32,746
Is that what you call it? Medication?
52
00:03:32,879 --> 00:03:36,486
The doctors can't say
if he'll ever come out of the coma.
53
00:03:37,417 --> 00:03:40,660
Hard enough seeing him
live through a stroke.
54
00:03:40,721 --> 00:03:43,099
You mean the one that you caused?
55
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:46,602
Sorry?
56
00:03:46,693 --> 00:03:49,765
His stupor. It didn't just happen.
It was induced.
57
00:03:49,896 --> 00:03:53,605
And you kept him that way with all
the bulbocapnine you keep giving him.
58
00:03:53,700 --> 00:03:56,078
- I don't understand what you're suggesting.
- Why did you do it?
59
00:03:56,169 --> 00:03:59,707
For his money? For his power?
For your husband?
60
00:04:17,290 --> 00:04:21,238
Borden. B-O-R-D-E-N? Great. Thanks.
61
00:04:21,361 --> 00:04:23,398
Credit reports, disciplinary actions if any,
62
00:04:23,463 --> 00:04:26,034
who his family members are,
that's what I need.
63
00:04:26,099 --> 00:04:28,238
- A real background check.
- Got it.
64
00:04:29,236 --> 00:04:31,910
Sussing out a source or a date?
65
00:04:31,972 --> 00:04:34,646
This detective I met with called,
said he had some information for me.
66
00:04:34,741 --> 00:04:37,415
Might be moot.
Cullen's named an emergency manager.
67
00:04:37,577 --> 00:04:40,558
The city's days from defaulting
on its financial obligations.
68
00:04:40,647 --> 00:04:43,628
When it does, Elizabeth Borden takes over.
69
00:04:43,817 --> 00:04:46,229
The attorney
who whipped Detroit into shape?
70
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:48,265
Ran it for over a year.
71
00:04:48,321 --> 00:04:50,892
Mayor's cutting after-school programs
to bridge the budget gap.
72
00:04:51,091 --> 00:04:52,627
Nice.
73
00:04:52,726 --> 00:04:54,103
How's he gonna pay
for the other five billion?
74
00:04:54,161 --> 00:04:56,437
Exactly. If Kane can't stop the bleeding,
75
00:04:56,496 --> 00:04:58,339
Borden's gonna take him down
before you do.
76
00:05:19,619 --> 00:05:20,859
They're here.
77
00:05:21,354 --> 00:05:25,029
Hard up in a clinch
and no knife to cut the seizing.
78
00:05:26,026 --> 00:05:27,027
How many?
79
00:05:28,128 --> 00:05:29,505
Dozens.
80
00:05:31,531 --> 00:05:34,034
- When can we expect you in?
- Soon.
81
00:05:35,635 --> 00:05:37,512
Kill all residential streetlights.
82
00:05:39,339 --> 00:05:41,341
Let this message be heard.
83
00:05:41,875 --> 00:05:42,945
Corruption,
84
00:05:43,009 --> 00:05:47,151
political or financial,
will not be tolerated by my office.
85
00:05:48,348 --> 00:05:50,225
Take a couple questions.
86
00:05:54,955 --> 00:05:56,491
- Morning.
- Morning.
87
00:05:56,556 --> 00:05:59,901
...was taken into custody outside his Gold
Coast penthouse.
88
00:06:00,193 --> 00:06:05,233
He was a necessary evil,
but known and without association.
89
00:06:09,636 --> 00:06:11,138
I'll make the call.
90
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,082
Even my father had to ask
for this type of help from time to time.
91
00:06:18,011 --> 00:06:19,888
How is he, by the way, the old man?
92
00:06:21,314 --> 00:06:22,850
Unchanged.
93
00:06:25,919 --> 00:06:29,833
Emma, however, is becoming
increasingly unstable,
94
00:06:31,858 --> 00:06:35,670
and made accusations last night
about the stroke.
95
00:06:37,097 --> 00:06:38,906
She got physical.
96
00:06:40,767 --> 00:06:42,178
Tom, I want her out of this house.
97
00:06:42,669 --> 00:06:46,583
...going under?
If not, the public wants to know what's next.
98
00:06:47,007 --> 00:06:51,046
Will Mayor Kane be able to stave off disaster
this time, or is Chicago...
99
00:06:51,111 --> 00:06:54,957
I would ask that you endure
for a few more days.
100
00:06:59,519 --> 00:07:03,023
How long
before they try and wrest it from you?
101
00:07:25,045 --> 00:07:27,047
Sir, we're ready in your office.
102
00:07:35,488 --> 00:07:36,967
What the fuck are you looking at?
103
00:07:41,227 --> 00:07:44,265
Our phone lines are flooded
with complaints about the closures.
104
00:07:44,331 --> 00:07:46,902
Parents, teachers, conservancy groups,
park and rec workers.
105
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,344
Temporary inconveniences
which must be abided.
106
00:07:49,903 --> 00:07:52,144
Sacrifices must be made,
particularly in those wards
107
00:07:52,238 --> 00:07:53,774
which don't provide enough tax revenue.
108
00:07:53,907 --> 00:07:55,318
Nonexistent in the 21st.
109
00:07:56,910 --> 00:08:00,153
Then shutter its day care facilities, shelters,
and community centers.
110
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,318
Sir, I understand your hostility
towards Alderman Ross,
111
00:08:04,017 --> 00:08:07,521
but his Ward's already stretched
in terms of public services.
112
00:08:07,620 --> 00:08:11,261
And he no longer has to provide them
to residents of Lennox Gardens,
113
00:08:11,358 --> 00:08:12,769
because there are none
114
00:08:15,261 --> 00:08:16,433
at the moment.
115
00:08:16,496 --> 00:08:19,636
I'll notify DFSS about shuttering
those agencies right away.
116
00:08:19,699 --> 00:08:21,508
Smaller measures like these can help,
117
00:08:21,601 --> 00:08:24,639
but, with all due respect, they're a drop
in the bucket given the city's deficit.
118
00:08:24,804 --> 00:08:27,045
What we really need is a federal bailout.
119
00:08:28,041 --> 00:08:30,817
Which is why I want you in DC.
I need you to push for TARP funds.
120
00:08:30,877 --> 00:08:31,947
Get the Treasury to buy our debt.
121
00:08:32,012 --> 00:08:33,719
That's just what I was about to suggest.
122
00:08:33,813 --> 00:08:35,451
Take the next plane out.
123
00:08:35,515 --> 00:08:37,620
I'll make some calls,
get you in front of the right people.
124
00:08:38,151 --> 00:08:39,562
Yes, sir.
125
00:08:40,620 --> 00:08:43,396
Ian, it was a bit chilly
126
00:08:44,391 --> 00:08:46,837
when last I visited the conference room.
127
00:08:48,395 --> 00:08:50,807
Make our guests more comfortable.
128
00:08:58,238 --> 00:09:00,844
It was sound advice and I took it.
129
00:09:00,907 --> 00:09:03,148
To great success, as it turns out.
130
00:09:04,411 --> 00:09:07,654
Congratulations on that McGantry arrest,
by the way.
131
00:09:07,714 --> 00:09:09,159
Timing could have been better.
132
00:09:09,215 --> 00:09:12,492
We barely made one news cycle before
the budget crisis became a bigger headline.
133
00:09:12,552 --> 00:09:14,532
True, but it's all of one piece,
134
00:09:14,587 --> 00:09:18,364
fall of the status quo,
ascendancy of new leadership.
135
00:09:18,425 --> 00:09:20,928
What can I do for you, Mr. Zajac?
136
00:09:22,195 --> 00:09:23,196
Double down.
137
00:09:23,663 --> 00:09:25,574
Help me further separate
myself from Tom Kane
138
00:09:25,698 --> 00:09:27,700
by providing your full power
of your field operations.
139
00:09:27,767 --> 00:09:29,405
Got to love a man with confidence.
140
00:09:30,070 --> 00:09:33,779
- If he gets wind of this...
- In a few days, he's a nonissue.
141
00:09:33,873 --> 00:09:36,251
If the city goes broke, it'll be up for grabs.
142
00:09:37,210 --> 00:09:41,522
Pretty big takedown.
His biggest PAC contributor for years.
143
00:09:41,581 --> 00:09:43,561
He must have done something huge
to piss Kane off this much.
144
00:09:43,616 --> 00:09:45,562
Like contribute to my campaign.
145
00:09:45,618 --> 00:09:46,858
Might not have been Kane's play.
146
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,867
God knows the State's Attorney
will do anything to get into the papers.
147
00:09:49,923 --> 00:09:52,563
No, I'm pretty sure Doyle got
this handed to him on a silver platter.
148
00:09:52,625 --> 00:09:55,128
Kitty, you give your old boss
way too much credit.
149
00:09:55,228 --> 00:09:58,072
And anyway, McGantry is yesterday's news.
150
00:09:58,131 --> 00:10:02,546
Today is all about the fact that Chicago's
been run into the ground by the bad guys.
151
00:10:02,602 --> 00:10:04,741
We're ready.
152
00:10:04,804 --> 00:10:05,942
In here.
153
00:10:06,039 --> 00:10:08,417
And you work for the good guys now.
154
00:10:10,243 --> 00:10:11,586
Have a driver meet me at the gate.
155
00:10:11,644 --> 00:10:15,057
I've got my RFP responses here,
but I need my PowerPoint overnighted.
156
00:10:15,115 --> 00:10:17,322
I'll call you from the cab.
157
00:10:30,163 --> 00:10:32,575
Good a time as any to leave town.
158
00:10:33,466 --> 00:10:37,471
I'm flying to DC, trying to mitigate
some of the damage you've done.
159
00:10:37,570 --> 00:10:40,847
It's not my fault the city can't meet
its obligation on loan interests.
160
00:10:41,508 --> 00:10:43,954
Kane's been working
this Ponzi scheme for years.
161
00:10:44,010 --> 00:10:47,856
By the time the receiver gets it straight,
his term's over,
162
00:10:47,947 --> 00:10:49,358
and you're out of a job.
163
00:10:49,749 --> 00:10:51,626
Should have stuck with Mr. Ross here.
164
00:10:51,684 --> 00:10:55,029
FYI, if Borden takes over,
your boss loses, too.
165
00:10:56,356 --> 00:10:59,929
Unlike our mayor, I can rise again.
166
00:11:02,428 --> 00:11:05,375
Seems like your name may not be
worth so much after all.
167
00:11:20,013 --> 00:11:22,459
No. No. No.
168
00:11:22,515 --> 00:11:24,188
No! No! No!
169
00:11:24,284 --> 00:11:29,791
You can't fucking do this!
Fuck you, you fucking bitch! Let me out!
170
00:11:49,075 --> 00:11:52,147
Sweat it out, bastards.
171
00:11:54,414 --> 00:11:58,021
The city has a pension payment tomorrow
of over half a million dollars.
172
00:11:58,084 --> 00:11:59,927
We could save that
by shutting down select transit lines
173
00:12:00,019 --> 00:12:02,260
between 7:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m.
174
00:12:03,256 --> 00:12:05,566
It'll buy us some time, anyway.
175
00:12:11,064 --> 00:12:14,011
Do it, but don't spare rush hour.
176
00:12:15,101 --> 00:12:18,082
Not a cut the public will respond well to.
Perhaps you should make a statement.
177
00:12:18,171 --> 00:12:21,118
Last thing I want to do
is become the official face of this crisis
178
00:12:21,207 --> 00:12:24,188
when it is the Council
that is wholly to blame.
179
00:12:24,244 --> 00:12:29,694
I just wish some informed insider
would say the same to the press.
180
00:12:31,784 --> 00:12:32,785
Sir?
181
00:12:34,754 --> 00:12:36,256
You heard me.
182
00:12:41,928 --> 00:12:46,570
After all these years, I can't believe
I've never seen your home.
183
00:12:48,034 --> 00:12:50,310
We don't entertain here often.
184
00:12:50,436 --> 00:12:53,576
This is a special occasion, then.
185
00:12:59,379 --> 00:13:02,917
John, my husband's trust
isn't easily earned.
186
00:13:03,650 --> 00:13:07,427
I've noticed.
My family's made more than one overture.
187
00:13:07,487 --> 00:13:08,488
Yeah.
188
00:13:09,422 --> 00:13:10,924
But at the moment,
189
00:13:11,591 --> 00:13:14,663
Chicago is experiencing
financial difficulties.
190
00:13:14,994 --> 00:13:17,167
And you see an opportunity.
191
00:13:17,830 --> 00:13:19,070
I do.
192
00:13:24,470 --> 00:13:27,349
Does the Mayor even know that I'm here?
193
00:13:29,575 --> 00:13:32,317
- He does.
- But this was your idea?
194
00:13:34,914 --> 00:13:36,621
Yes.
195
00:13:39,285 --> 00:13:44,132
Allow me to be the first Vacarro
to contribute to Tom Kane's PAC.
196
00:13:47,827 --> 00:13:48,965
John,
197
00:13:50,663 --> 00:13:53,041
now is not the time to think small.
198
00:13:57,170 --> 00:13:58,808
No more cutbacks!
199
00:13:59,105 --> 00:14:01,051
No more cutbacks! No more cutbacks!
200
00:14:02,775 --> 00:14:06,052
No more cutbacks! No more cutbacks!
201
00:14:06,145 --> 00:14:07,818
No more cutbacks!
202
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,054
No more cutbacks! No more cutbacks!
203
00:14:17,390 --> 00:14:20,860
This is Ian Todd at the Mayor's office.
Leave a message, and I'll call you back.
204
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:25,500
It's Emma.
You need to come here right away.
205
00:14:25,565 --> 00:14:27,374
They've locked me in.
206
00:14:27,734 --> 00:14:29,372
I have to see you. I need you.
207
00:14:29,702 --> 00:14:30,976
If you are satisfied with your message...
208
00:14:31,070 --> 00:14:36,076
No more cutbacks! No more cutbacks!
No more cutbacks!
209
00:14:36,743 --> 00:14:41,214
Mr. Todd! Mr. Todd! Any comment on
the deficit that stands to bankrupt the city?
210
00:14:42,915 --> 00:14:45,020
Yes. I do, actually.
211
00:14:45,084 --> 00:14:46,563
Having worked
with several Council members,
212
00:14:46,686 --> 00:14:50,600
I'm struck by the lack of responsibility
being taken by its leadership in this crisis.
213
00:14:51,090 --> 00:14:55,937
No less than a month ago, all 50 aldermen
approved pay raises for themselves.
214
00:14:56,028 --> 00:14:59,009
But when the Mayor needed help
in balancing the budget, they refused.
215
00:14:59,432 --> 00:15:02,777
Now they're off the radar
while public services are cut,
216
00:15:02,869 --> 00:15:08,114
citizens suffer, and an emergency manager
with a six-figure salary is appointed.
217
00:15:09,175 --> 00:15:11,416
Where's the democracy in that?
218
00:15:11,511 --> 00:15:12,546
Excuse me.
219
00:15:12,612 --> 00:15:13,955
No more cutbacks!
220
00:15:14,847 --> 00:15:18,192
What qualifies someone, do you suppose,
to run a city?
221
00:15:18,251 --> 00:15:20,231
Mr. Kane, out of respect for your position,
222
00:15:20,286 --> 00:15:22,732
I came here after hours
so as not to cause any...
223
00:15:22,789 --> 00:15:24,564
Did you study law?
224
00:15:25,391 --> 00:15:27,530
Economics? Get elected?
225
00:15:28,528 --> 00:15:31,737
My team is here to ensure
a smooth transition of power.
226
00:15:32,298 --> 00:15:35,438
The fact is, no matter
how much money you move around
227
00:15:35,535 --> 00:15:40,314
or how many light switches you turn off
or jobs you eliminate, the city will default.
228
00:15:41,073 --> 00:15:43,576
And because that is the reality
of the situation,
229
00:15:43,643 --> 00:15:46,487
I wanted to give you the opportunity
to speak with your unions
230
00:15:46,579 --> 00:15:49,321
before I cut pensions and cancel contracts.
231
00:15:52,552 --> 00:15:57,900
Do you really think I'd allow
the likes of you to take this from me?
232
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:02,467
A bean counter? A shyster?
233
00:16:02,562 --> 00:16:03,563
Someone who has more regard
234
00:16:03,629 --> 00:16:07,008
for the almighty dollar
than the people of this city.
235
00:16:09,068 --> 00:16:11,742
Short of a miracle, I'll be back in two days.
236
00:16:33,759 --> 00:16:35,033
I'll see you then.
237
00:16:45,037 --> 00:16:46,209
Hope to be your next governor.
238
00:16:46,305 --> 00:16:48,216
Your campaign's been
on quite a roller coaster.
239
00:16:48,307 --> 00:16:51,049
With the positive press you've gotten
since your mea culpa interview,
240
00:16:51,143 --> 00:16:52,850
think you still have a shot
at winning the office?
241
00:16:52,945 --> 00:16:55,118
Absolutely. Because I still care
about Illinois.
242
00:16:55,448 --> 00:16:58,395
Which is why I didn't approve the Mayor's
request for a state-funded bailout.
243
00:16:58,551 --> 00:17:01,657
Mr. Kane's played a big part
in your candidacy. Has that changed?
244
00:17:01,721 --> 00:17:03,132
He knows, as State Treasurer,
245
00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:05,533
I have a fiscal responsibility
to each and every taxpayer.
246
00:17:05,625 --> 00:17:09,038
So in good conscience, I can't saddle them
with a debt incurred in a single city.
247
00:17:09,128 --> 00:17:11,836
And how are the people of Chicago
supposed to feel about that?
248
00:17:11,898 --> 00:17:14,037
They should be angry,
and I don't blame them.
249
00:17:14,133 --> 00:17:16,670
They shouldn't have to feel the pain
of mismanagement.
250
00:17:16,736 --> 00:17:18,716
And people can think
what they want about me personally,
251
00:17:18,804 --> 00:17:21,478
but my record will show
I have tremendous fiscal discipline.
252
00:17:21,741 --> 00:17:24,187
Hi, how are you? Thank you so much.
Good to meet you.
253
00:17:24,243 --> 00:17:26,689
- Hi.
- Nice to meet you. Thank you so much.
254
00:17:26,746 --> 00:17:27,884
- Hi, how are you?
- Hi. Good.
255
00:17:27,980 --> 00:17:29,721
- Thank you so much for your support.
- Nice to see you again.
256
00:17:29,815 --> 00:17:32,056
Yes, great to see you again.
Thank you for your support.
257
00:17:32,151 --> 00:17:34,358
Thank you so much for your support.
Let's wrap this up, okay?
258
00:17:34,854 --> 00:17:37,027
Thanks, folks. See you at the polls.
259
00:17:37,089 --> 00:17:38,659
City's closing this line down anyway.
260
00:17:42,361 --> 00:17:45,035
What you're suggesting is unprecedented.
261
00:17:45,364 --> 00:17:46,741
Worked for the auto industry.
262
00:17:47,433 --> 00:17:48,707
That was corporate.
263
00:17:48,768 --> 00:17:52,375
You are talking about using TARP
funds to buy up municipal debt.
264
00:17:52,505 --> 00:17:55,179
The Mayor's hoping
the Treasury will be pragmatic.
265
00:17:55,241 --> 00:17:57,949
We go down, it's not just Chicago
that feels the pain.
266
00:17:58,044 --> 00:17:59,785
Not pragmatic to open the door,
267
00:17:59,879 --> 00:18:03,884
allowing every distressed city
to claim our limited funds.
268
00:18:03,950 --> 00:18:06,294
Illinois has 20 electoral votes.
269
00:18:07,787 --> 00:18:10,791
It is unclear
that a weakened Kane can deliver that.
270
00:18:11,457 --> 00:18:15,633
Can we get the Mayor on the phone
with the secretary to discuss our proposal?
271
00:18:26,472 --> 00:18:30,045
Why don't you
just fucking roll over and die?
272
00:18:30,109 --> 00:18:31,918
Nice to see you, too, William.
273
00:18:31,978 --> 00:18:35,824
You want this city to suffer' at least have
the decency to spread it around,
274
00:18:35,915 --> 00:18:39,829
not just gut my ward, which as you know,
don't have much to begin with.
275
00:18:40,987 --> 00:18:43,058
- Why?
- Why what?
276
00:18:44,290 --> 00:18:45,769
This?
277
00:18:45,825 --> 00:18:48,999
Don't you care about your constituents,
the people you were elected to serve?
278
00:18:49,929 --> 00:18:53,240
Do you want to see them
at the mercy of an outsider?
279
00:18:56,302 --> 00:18:58,077
As opposed to you?
280
00:19:03,843 --> 00:19:06,915
You are not that petty or stupid.
281
00:19:12,418 --> 00:19:14,193
Your time has come.
282
00:19:15,821 --> 00:19:17,323
Our time.
283
00:19:20,159 --> 00:19:22,639
Years of bloody battle between us,
284
00:19:23,295 --> 00:19:25,866
now we both lose to a third party.
285
00:19:29,101 --> 00:19:31,980
You're the one who pushed it over the edge.
286
00:19:33,606 --> 00:19:34,607
With that.
287
00:19:38,711 --> 00:19:41,055
That, Alderman,
288
00:19:43,049 --> 00:19:44,722
can save us both.
289
00:20:02,401 --> 00:20:03,402
Hey, Roxie.
290
00:20:07,506 --> 00:20:10,248
A little bit of this for a little bit of that?
291
00:20:15,681 --> 00:20:18,321
It's Meredith Kane. How are you?
292
00:20:18,384 --> 00:20:20,193
I'm just fine. Thanks for asking;.
293
00:20:20,753 --> 00:20:24,257
Funny you should call.
The wife asked about you just last night.
294
00:20:24,356 --> 00:20:25,596
Give my best to Edie.
295
00:20:26,826 --> 00:20:29,102
Mac, I know you're busy,
but if at all possible,
296
00:20:29,195 --> 00:20:31,197
I'd love to meet you for lunch.
297
00:20:31,263 --> 00:20:32,708
You herein Springfield?
298
00:20:32,765 --> 00:20:36,542
No, in Chicago. But I could have
you flown in on a friend's private jet.
299
00:20:36,602 --> 00:20:37,740
We could chat.
300
00:20:38,771 --> 00:20:41,945
Last time we did resulted
in a steep National Guard bill.
301
00:20:42,441 --> 00:20:44,853
No, this won't cost a thing.
302
00:20:46,278 --> 00:20:48,451
I'll have you back in Springfield
in a couple of hours.
303
00:20:48,581 --> 00:20:50,117
There's someone I'd like you to meet.
304
00:20:51,851 --> 00:20:54,525
- Never pass on a free lunch.
Wonderful.
305
00:20:55,254 --> 00:20:56,255
I'll see you soon.
306
00:20:58,858 --> 00:21:02,203
You really do smooth out
my rough edges, don't you?
307
00:21:19,779 --> 00:21:21,053
Hello?
308
00:21:24,250 --> 00:21:26,423
You weren't lying when you said
some place out of the way.
309
00:21:26,485 --> 00:21:29,125
I can't be too careful
with the goods that I got.
310
00:21:29,321 --> 00:21:31,062
I like the sound of that.
311
00:21:31,123 --> 00:21:34,593
Your suspicions about Ezra Stone
are not unfounded.
312
00:21:36,929 --> 00:21:38,272
Meaning it was an inside job.
313
00:21:38,330 --> 00:21:41,504
Gotta be some terms here
if you want the full story.
314
00:21:43,235 --> 00:21:44,976
Last time I saw you, you were bar side
315
00:21:45,070 --> 00:21:46,640
with Kane's pal from the O'Hara ceremony.
316
00:21:46,739 --> 00:21:49,618
Kind of seemed like you guys were
part of the same fan club.
317
00:21:49,675 --> 00:21:51,120
Past tense.
318
00:21:51,177 --> 00:21:53,987
Look, CPD's been
doing Kane's dirty work for years.
319
00:21:54,079 --> 00:21:56,753
Then he turns around and
scrapes Royczyk like shit from his shoe.
320
00:21:56,849 --> 00:22:00,092
Now he's eyeballing our pension funds
to keep the city from going belly up.
321
00:22:00,152 --> 00:22:01,825
You'll go on record?
322
00:22:01,921 --> 00:22:03,093
For 10,000 bucks.
323
00:22:04,857 --> 00:22:07,463
- We don't pay for stories.
- You don't get 'em this good, either.
324
00:22:07,593 --> 00:22:10,130
What, toxic waste in Bensenville? Please.
325
00:22:10,262 --> 00:22:13,300
The Sentinel is a paper of record,
Detective Dinovo, not a tabloid.
326
00:22:13,365 --> 00:22:16,869
Yeah, and I'm a man without retirement pay
who needs to leave town if I go public.
327
00:22:16,969 --> 00:22:19,643
I'd say 10 grand was a bargain.
Take it or leave it.
328
00:22:19,939 --> 00:22:21,782
There's more to tell.
329
00:22:29,014 --> 00:22:32,188
I couldn't tell if it was just a bump
or something I should be worried about.
330
00:22:32,284 --> 00:22:35,060
You know what she said to me,
"I love you," and all this stuff.
331
00:22:35,154 --> 00:22:38,658
- Hey, I don't blame you.
Afternoon, gentlemen.
332
00:22:39,725 --> 00:22:40,829
Mr. Taylor.
333
00:22:42,328 --> 00:22:45,138
Come here, man. It's good to see you, man.
334
00:22:45,331 --> 00:22:47,834
- It's good to be seen.
- Yeah.
335
00:22:47,900 --> 00:22:49,573
- How you doing?
- Fine.
336
00:22:49,835 --> 00:22:52,315
Now that charges against me got dropped.
337
00:22:52,371 --> 00:22:54,248
I'm grateful for everything you did
in that regard.
338
00:22:54,473 --> 00:22:56,749
You kept your head
when you were in custody.
339
00:22:56,842 --> 00:23:00,415
That kind of loyalty is
something I very much value.
340
00:23:01,247 --> 00:23:02,590
Of course it is.
341
00:23:03,849 --> 00:23:07,194
So, the Gardens are done for a while,
342
00:23:07,253 --> 00:23:09,392
but I'd imagine you still
need some help in the field.
343
00:23:09,488 --> 00:23:12,435
I understand young brother covered
for me while I was gone, but...
344
00:23:12,524 --> 00:23:16,734
Trey, go down the hall, get us some ice.
I want to fix the ward boss a drink,
345
00:23:16,929 --> 00:23:19,000
catch him up on things.
346
00:23:19,064 --> 00:23:20,407
All right.
347
00:23:22,768 --> 00:23:25,681
- How your family' man? Everybody good?
- Everybody's good.
348
00:23:25,738 --> 00:23:27,911
You had sex with Treasurer Zajac?
349
00:23:28,941 --> 00:23:31,182
Oral. In his office.
350
00:23:32,244 --> 00:23:34,019
That part was okay with me.
351
00:23:34,079 --> 00:23:38,289
But then he eliminated my internship,
which was way not okay.
352
00:23:38,384 --> 00:23:41,263
And when I saw him on the street,
353
00:23:41,353 --> 00:23:43,196
he pretended he didn't know me.
354
00:23:46,926 --> 00:23:50,931
He's just a hypocrite,
telling people he's only had one affair.
355
00:23:51,530 --> 00:23:53,407
It's a lie.
356
00:23:53,465 --> 00:23:56,275
Patty, I get why you want
to hold him accountable. I do.
357
00:23:56,368 --> 00:23:58,473
It's a completely healthy reaction.
358
00:24:00,439 --> 00:24:02,248
But if you go public with this,
359
00:24:02,374 --> 00:24:04,615
you will be savaged.
360
00:24:04,710 --> 00:24:07,657
You will be painted as a slut.
He will deny it, say you're delusional,
361
00:24:07,780 --> 00:24:09,384
and everyone will believe him.
362
00:24:11,784 --> 00:24:14,458
Don't throw your future away on this.
363
00:24:15,554 --> 00:24:16,794
He's not worth it.
364
00:24:19,825 --> 00:24:22,635
I really thought you'd be on my side.
365
00:24:23,095 --> 00:24:27,009
I need a breakdown ward by ward.
Get me the southeast first.
366
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,514
I am. Just sleep on this, okay?
367
00:24:38,344 --> 00:24:41,791
Give it some thought.
Call me tomorrow and we'll talk about it.
368
00:24:44,750 --> 00:24:46,024
Okay.
369
00:24:55,461 --> 00:24:56,963
So what was that all about?
370
00:24:57,963 --> 00:24:59,374
She used to work for Zajac.
371
00:24:59,498 --> 00:25:05,039
She's looking for a new job,
but we don't have any space for her.
372
00:25:19,551 --> 00:25:21,895
Getting too old for this shit.
373
00:25:22,888 --> 00:25:25,892
Description, location, compensation.
374
00:25:27,393 --> 00:25:28,736
Tonight.
375
00:25:35,401 --> 00:25:37,142
I'm meeting with Senator Caner later.
376
00:25:37,202 --> 00:25:39,580
If we can get assurances
that banking won't go after them,
377
00:25:39,671 --> 00:25:41,082
maybe we can get the Fed to hem.
378
00:25:41,907 --> 00:25:44,410
- Good, keep at it.
- How are things going there?
379
00:25:44,510 --> 00:25:46,421
A day from shutting down schools.
380
00:25:49,081 --> 00:25:50,253
I'll keep you posted.
381
00:25:52,151 --> 00:25:54,153
You may be my only hope.
382
00:26:08,700 --> 00:26:11,738
Mac's quite affable, though he
and my husband have had their moments.
383
00:26:11,837 --> 00:26:15,444
Which is why you're here
and not the Mayor himself.
384
00:26:15,541 --> 00:26:17,851
As you can imagine, he's quite busy.
385
00:26:17,910 --> 00:26:19,412
And I do play a role.
386
00:26:19,511 --> 00:26:23,550
It's quite clear how much
political power you have, Meredith.
387
00:26:34,526 --> 00:26:35,596
Mac.
388
00:26:36,061 --> 00:26:38,598
A fella could get used to this.
389
00:26:39,198 --> 00:26:43,044
Mac, this is John Vacarro. John, Mac Cullen.
390
00:26:43,902 --> 00:26:46,610
So, what's for lunch?
391
00:26:47,139 --> 00:26:48,641
Let's go.
392
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,718
I'm not much of a gambler myself,
393
00:26:56,782 --> 00:26:59,319
but the track has proven
to be a solid investment.
394
00:26:59,418 --> 00:27:00,954
Bought it several years ago.
395
00:27:01,053 --> 00:27:05,001
Putin a global pari-mutuel betting system.
Been a moneymaker ever since.
396
00:27:05,090 --> 00:27:07,593
Very nice. As is the box.
397
00:27:07,659 --> 00:27:09,468
Nothing quite like it in Springfield.
398
00:27:09,561 --> 00:27:11,006
Excuse me.
399
00:27:12,331 --> 00:27:15,744
Mrs. Kane. Meredith, are you all right?
400
00:27:15,801 --> 00:27:18,611
Yeah, I just needed to sit for a second.
401
00:27:18,670 --> 00:27:21,583
Shall we cut to the chase
before the horses do?
402
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,586
Absolutely.
403
00:27:23,642 --> 00:27:26,680
McGantry's property
surrounding Lennox Gardens.
404
00:27:27,112 --> 00:27:28,989
- Now owned by the state.
- Go on.
405
00:27:29,081 --> 00:27:32,824
- I buy it at market value plus 5%.
- Do you?
406
00:27:33,318 --> 00:27:36,356
Shouldn't that be phrased
as a question, Mr. Vacarro?
407
00:27:36,989 --> 00:27:40,163
We both know market value these days
is a turd with a price tag.
408
00:27:40,659 --> 00:27:43,265
Three years ago, McGantry bought
that same real estate
409
00:27:43,328 --> 00:27:44,773
for a hell of a lot more than that.
410
00:27:45,364 --> 00:27:46,536
That was then, Mac.
411
00:27:46,632 --> 00:27:48,771
And this is now, I suppose.
412
00:27:50,102 --> 00:27:53,845
We take the guarantee to the banks
as collateral for emergency loans.
413
00:27:54,706 --> 00:27:56,447
You come out looking
like the savior of Chicago.
414
00:27:56,508 --> 00:27:57,953
Jesus.
415
00:27:58,010 --> 00:28:00,354
Someone get me a pair of tights and a cape.
416
00:28:00,646 --> 00:28:03,820
- Is that my new identity since the riots?
- Why not?
417
00:28:03,882 --> 00:28:07,022
Think I'll get a chance
to place a bet before I have to go?
418
00:28:12,224 --> 00:28:13,862
Meme.
419
00:28:23,068 --> 00:28:26,345
Hey, hey. Hard man to find, huh, cuz?
420
00:28:26,471 --> 00:28:28,747
Just been working in different places, man.
421
00:28:30,709 --> 00:28:32,211
Sound about right.
422
00:28:32,911 --> 00:28:34,857
You wouldn't be thinking of running off
on me now, would you?
423
00:28:35,547 --> 00:28:36,719
I will find you.
424
00:28:37,082 --> 00:28:40,894
I ain't going nowhere, bro.
I'm just building my business back up.
425
00:28:41,086 --> 00:28:42,997
I got a little now if you want it.
426
00:28:43,055 --> 00:28:44,398
The fuck is that?
427
00:28:46,592 --> 00:28:48,435
5k is some serious paper, man.
428
00:28:48,527 --> 00:28:50,200
And I ain't got 10 years to wait on you.
429
00:28:50,329 --> 00:28:53,105
Have all my money today or we got issues.
430
00:28:55,033 --> 00:28:57,013
You know I ain't got that shit, man.
431
00:29:01,206 --> 00:29:04,119
Hey, look, tell me something, man. Really.
432
00:29:05,944 --> 00:29:07,719
That little white girl worth all this?
433
00:29:09,181 --> 00:29:11,957
Man, I'm done with that bitch.
434
00:29:12,050 --> 00:29:14,291
Look at the man. He done with her,
435
00:29:15,954 --> 00:29:17,900
and yet the debt remains.
436
00:29:20,225 --> 00:29:23,069
So tell me, what we gonna do about that?
437
00:29:30,569 --> 00:29:32,276
What's up with the Zajac volunteer?
438
00:29:32,537 --> 00:29:35,814
She was inexperienced. We don't need her.
439
00:29:37,309 --> 00:29:38,720
You're lying. Why?
440
00:29:38,777 --> 00:29:40,256
I'm not.
441
00:29:40,312 --> 00:29:44,818
If another one's come out of the woodwork,
why aren't we running with it?
442
00:29:46,218 --> 00:29:48,494
- Catherine, it's gilding the lily.
- Not when he's trending up.
443
00:29:49,054 --> 00:29:50,761
Proof that it was more
than one affair could finish him.
444
00:29:50,822 --> 00:29:53,132
If you've got something on Zajac' I want it.
445
00:29:53,225 --> 00:29:57,970
So either he banged the fat chick or
she's mad he didn't bang her. Which is it?
446
00:29:59,898 --> 00:30:02,174
She's just a kid, okay? If we go public...
447
00:30:02,301 --> 00:30:07,512
This is my fourth run.
I don't give a shit about collateral damage.
448
00:30:10,909 --> 00:30:12,252
But the meeting was set.
449
00:30:12,311 --> 00:30:14,689
- He can't see you. I'm sorry.
- Can't or won't?
450
00:30:14,780 --> 00:30:17,488
Carter's been waiting 15 years
to get the gavel on banking.
451
00:30:17,582 --> 00:30:18,959
He's not gonna give it up for this.
452
00:30:19,017 --> 00:30:20,519
He owes his career to Kane.
453
00:30:20,652 --> 00:30:23,963
You think he can get by
without Cook County next primary?
454
00:30:24,022 --> 00:30:28,437
Look, everyone's watching Walsh/Zajac and
thinking maybe Kane's finally irrelevant.
455
00:30:28,493 --> 00:30:31,303
She wins, his pull evaporates.
456
00:30:31,363 --> 00:30:33,639
People forget a fundamental truth.
457
00:30:33,699 --> 00:30:36,145
Tom Kane always finds a way.
458
00:30:36,201 --> 00:30:37,703
The further you back him into a corner,
459
00:30:37,803 --> 00:30:40,716
the more painful the cuts
when he fights his way out.
460
00:30:42,307 --> 00:30:43,547
I'm sorry.
461
00:30:51,650 --> 00:30:54,631
After all this, I'm getting no?
462
00:30:55,954 --> 00:30:57,865
Welcome to politics.
463
00:30:58,056 --> 00:31:00,161
You might wish you'd stayed out.
464
00:31:01,460 --> 00:31:04,669
Thanks, you mo, but I need to get going.
465
00:31:04,730 --> 00:31:07,142
Need to check in with Borden
before it gets too late.
466
00:31:07,199 --> 00:31:09,145
Sorry you couldn't stay longer, Governor.
467
00:31:09,968 --> 00:31:11,811
With only a few months left in office,
468
00:31:11,870 --> 00:31:14,851
I'm sure Mac wants
to make the most of them.
469
00:31:15,741 --> 00:31:18,881
Tell Tom I wish him the best with this thing.
470
00:31:19,411 --> 00:31:20,890
I really do.
471
00:31:21,246 --> 00:31:22,350
Will do.
472
00:31:23,081 --> 00:31:24,890
Which way to the jet?
473
00:31:40,198 --> 00:31:42,542
- Tell me.
- He's not on board.
474
00:31:43,201 --> 00:31:48,549
They say a mule will labor 10 years
willingly and patiently
475
00:31:48,607 --> 00:31:51,349
for the privilege of kicking you just once.
476
00:31:52,110 --> 00:31:53,783
He wants more than that.
477
00:31:54,212 --> 00:31:56,249
Yeah. Speak later.
478
00:31:59,551 --> 00:32:01,895
Payroll for sanitation
won't be met without more cuts.
479
00:32:02,788 --> 00:32:06,463
At this point, we're at mandated furloughs
for nonessential city workers.
480
00:32:10,295 --> 00:32:12,434
- Any word from Mona?
- Nothing encouraging.
481
00:32:15,967 --> 00:32:17,537
Sir, is it possible that...
482
00:32:18,403 --> 00:32:20,246
Will we lose control of the city?
483
00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:29,486
I want this delivered by hand
484
00:32:31,316 --> 00:32:33,125
to Governor Cullen.
485
00:32:34,286 --> 00:32:36,323
I believe Governor Cullen is
out of the office until tomorrow.
486
00:32:36,455 --> 00:32:39,436
Then deliver it as soon as possible.
487
00:32:39,491 --> 00:32:41,937
God damn it.
488
00:32:44,996 --> 00:32:46,498
Yes, sir.
489
00:32:46,598 --> 00:32:48,805
Mr. Mayor, just thought you should know,
490
00:32:50,168 --> 00:32:53,012
the emergency manager is meeting with
her advance team in the conference room.
491
00:32:54,406 --> 00:32:58,479
10% across-the-board layoffs aren't enough.
We'll need at least 18.
492
00:32:59,811 --> 00:33:01,654
It has not been two days.
493
00:33:01,746 --> 00:33:04,158
You are interlopers here
because of my hospitality.
494
00:33:04,249 --> 00:33:05,353
I want you to leave now.
495
00:33:05,450 --> 00:33:08,488
First off, this advance team is here
by order of the State.
496
00:33:08,587 --> 00:33:09,622
And in 24 hours...
497
00:33:09,688 --> 00:33:10,792
Get out!
498
00:33:11,823 --> 00:33:13,029
You!
499
00:33:14,459 --> 00:33:15,961
You're postponing the inevitable.
500
00:33:24,669 --> 00:33:25,704
She's wrong.
501
00:33:57,702 --> 00:33:59,079
Are you out of your mind?
502
00:33:59,170 --> 00:34:00,649
I wanted to see you.
503
00:34:00,705 --> 00:34:04,585
Here, in the middle of nowhere,
after not calling me for days?
504
00:34:04,676 --> 00:34:06,019
Yeah, I know I've been out of touch.
505
00:34:06,077 --> 00:34:08,079
No word, no explanation. Nothing.
506
00:34:08,246 --> 00:34:10,658
Kane has a brain disease.
507
00:34:10,715 --> 00:34:12,888
I was tracking
that before Rosebud came along.
508
00:34:12,984 --> 00:34:14,395
Reason I was over the border
when you called?
509
00:34:14,486 --> 00:34:15,863
That's where he was during the riots,
510
00:34:15,921 --> 00:34:18,925
in an experimental treatment center
just outside of Toronto.
511
00:34:19,024 --> 00:34:24,030
My gut says that Stone knew
about the illness as well.
512
00:34:24,429 --> 00:34:27,569
Saw that Kane was unfit for office,
so he leaks the Bensenville story
513
00:34:27,666 --> 00:34:29,043
under the name Rosebud.
514
00:34:29,100 --> 00:34:32,513
Kane ultimately finds out about it
and kills him for it.
515
00:34:33,371 --> 00:34:37,877
The burglary gone bad, which every other
paper in town seems so ready to print.
516
00:34:37,943 --> 00:34:39,752
I've got the lead detective ready
to go on record,
517
00:34:39,844 --> 00:34:42,051
say the whole damn thing was a cover-up
as long as I pay for it.
518
00:34:42,113 --> 00:34:44,457
Now I'm not exactly ready
to bite that fucking bullet,
519
00:34:44,549 --> 00:34:47,291
but, goddamn, I mean, we've got him.
We've got Kane by the balls.
520
00:34:47,852 --> 00:34:48,922
We?
521
00:34:50,288 --> 00:34:51,562
Yeah, you told me Rosebud was Stone.
522
00:34:51,623 --> 00:34:55,400
I did not. I told you it may be Stone.
523
00:34:56,094 --> 00:34:59,234
May be. And I told you, Sam. No one else.
524
00:35:00,065 --> 00:35:02,409
So don't even fucking think
about using my name, okay?
525
00:35:02,467 --> 00:35:05,311
Look, he can't touch you from a prison cell.
That's exactly where he's going.
526
00:35:05,437 --> 00:35:08,577
You think Kane is blinded by ambition?
You may want to take a look in the mirror.
527
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:09,641
Oh, Jesus.
528
00:35:10,308 --> 00:35:12,413
Fucking me isn't enough?
Now you're gonna analyze me?
529
00:35:12,477 --> 00:35:13,649
Excuse me?
530
00:35:16,615 --> 00:35:18,094
I didn't mean that.
531
00:35:18,149 --> 00:35:19,890
Don't use my name.
532
00:35:22,487 --> 00:35:23,989
I'm gonna use your name anyway.
533
00:35:24,756 --> 00:35:25,962
You'll be subpoenaed.
534
00:35:26,057 --> 00:35:28,594
Do it. I'll deny everything.
535
00:35:28,827 --> 00:35:30,170
And by the way...
536
00:35:31,129 --> 00:35:32,233
Fuck you!
537
00:35:38,637 --> 00:35:41,345
You just cant trust her.
538
00:35:41,439 --> 00:35:42,850
I think we can.
539
00:35:42,941 --> 00:35:46,354
Defending that kid today
was a big move for her as a person.
540
00:35:47,178 --> 00:35:49,590
Since when do you give a damn
about Kitty as a person?
541
00:35:49,648 --> 00:35:50,991
Take it easy.
542
00:35:51,416 --> 00:35:54,693
Good news is, we want
another Zajac scandal, we got it.
543
00:35:54,786 --> 00:35:56,129
Yeah, no thanks to her.
544
00:35:57,322 --> 00:35:59,268
- I need a cigarette.
- No, you don't.
545
00:35:59,324 --> 00:36:02,203
Sit down. Sit down.
546
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,273
She knows people, so what?
547
00:36:05,330 --> 00:36:07,537
She does. You know me.
548
00:36:12,270 --> 00:36:14,375
I'll be back in a minute.
549
00:36:19,277 --> 00:36:20,312
Senator Walsh?
550
00:36:21,713 --> 00:36:26,059
Just wanted to say congratulations
on your campaign.
551
00:36:26,785 --> 00:36:28,890
Voted for you every election.
552
00:36:29,020 --> 00:36:33,332
Thank you so much. Let's see if we can
make it to the Governor's office this time.
553
00:36:33,391 --> 00:36:35,234
Thanks again.
554
00:36:54,679 --> 00:36:56,681
- Are you planning on leaving soon?
- No.
555
00:36:57,849 --> 00:37:00,261
- Would you mind if I...
- Go home.
556
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,194
Would you like me to arrange for your car?
557
00:37:03,254 --> 00:37:08,101
It's a sailor's term
for being overtaken by misfortune.
558
00:37:10,228 --> 00:37:14,199
"Hard up in a clinch
and no knife to cut the seizing."
559
00:37:21,539 --> 00:37:23,541
I'm not going anywhere.
560
00:37:28,913 --> 00:37:30,085
You're dismissed.
561
00:37:31,116 --> 00:37:32,459
Yes, sir.
562
00:37:57,308 --> 00:37:58,582
Where's Trey?
563
00:37:58,643 --> 00:38:00,281
I don't know, man.
But he asked me to talk to you.
564
00:38:00,378 --> 00:38:02,585
To what? Waste my fucking time?
565
00:38:02,647 --> 00:38:04,991
A few weeks in a suit and he's a player now?
566
00:38:05,083 --> 00:38:06,084
- Tell him...
- Hold up, nigga.
567
00:38:06,151 --> 00:38:08,153
- I'm here to tell you something, man.
- That right?
568
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,490
He wants you gone, right?
569
00:38:10,588 --> 00:38:14,832
So we got one way you can do it,
or we got another.
570
00:38:21,332 --> 00:38:23,175
Are you serious?
571
00:38:23,268 --> 00:38:25,646
You think you can just get up in my car
and threaten me?
572
00:38:25,737 --> 00:38:27,114
I'm trying to do you a favor here, bro.
573
00:38:27,172 --> 00:38:30,585
And I'm gonna do you one by not punching
you in your goddamn face. Get the fuck out.
574
00:38:30,642 --> 00:38:33,088
If you don't do this' he'll kill us both, man.
I promise you that.
575
00:38:33,144 --> 00:38:35,852
I ain't scared of that motherfucker.
And sure as hell ain't scared of you.
576
00:38:35,947 --> 00:38:37,119
Keep talking.
577
00:38:37,248 --> 00:38:38,693
Give me a goddamn break.
578
00:38:39,184 --> 00:38:41,528
Think I don't know who you are?
579
00:38:41,686 --> 00:38:44,132
Darius, the one who's been
banging Kane's daughter.
580
00:38:44,189 --> 00:38:45,327
Shut the fuck up!
581
00:38:45,456 --> 00:38:46,867
What's this, some kind of joke, man?
582
00:38:46,958 --> 00:38:49,529
Trey trying to punk me out with this shit?
583
00:38:49,627 --> 00:38:53,700
Send me some weak-ass, punk-ass,
bitch-made puss...
584
00:39:34,505 --> 00:39:37,349
Okay, we got to get ready.
585
00:39:38,142 --> 00:39:40,645
They're picking us up in 30 minutes.
586
00:39:41,813 --> 00:39:44,760
Come on, baby, wake up!
587
00:39:46,084 --> 00:39:47,427
Okay.
588
00:39:50,822 --> 00:39:53,860
Come on, lazy girl. Come on, Tina.
589
00:39:55,193 --> 00:39:56,604
Come on, you...
590
00:39:58,763 --> 00:40:00,936
Tina? Tina!
591
00:40:01,199 --> 00:40:02,200
Tina!
592
00:40:06,704 --> 00:40:10,379
I need medical help! Now!
593
00:40:10,441 --> 00:40:13,183
Tina. Sweetheart. Tina, you...
594
00:40:14,712 --> 00:40:16,089
Tina!
595
00:40:16,180 --> 00:40:18,456
Tina! Tina!
596
00:40:25,089 --> 00:40:26,124
Can we say "dead lesbian"?
597
00:40:26,224 --> 00:40:28,864
EMT hinted it was a drug overdose,
maybe ketamine.
598
00:40:28,927 --> 00:40:31,430
What about Walsh? Anybody know
if she was under the influence?
599
00:40:31,529 --> 00:40:33,702
Or should we just write,
"Woman found naked in her bed?"
600
00:40:33,765 --> 00:40:35,210
Where the hell is Miller?
601
00:40:35,266 --> 00:40:36,870
He's not answering his phone.
602
00:40:36,935 --> 00:40:40,906
Track down that EMT.
You, don't say "lesbian," or "ketamine."
603
00:40:40,972 --> 00:40:45,648
"Dead woman found in hotel room
with Walsh, possible overdose."
604
00:40:45,743 --> 00:40:47,154
I'm going to the hotel.
605
00:40:49,314 --> 00:40:53,490
Breaking news as Senator Walsh's long time
aide was found dead early this morning
606
00:40:53,584 --> 00:40:56,758
in the Senators hotel room.
We're going live now to the scene.
607
00:40:56,888 --> 00:40:58,993
Was it an overdose? Or a suicide?
608
00:40:59,123 --> 00:41:02,627
Senator Walsh, what's the nature
of your relationship with the dead woman?
609
00:41:08,099 --> 00:41:10,978
How long have you known the deceased?
610
00:41:11,069 --> 00:41:14,016
Senator Walsh, can you tell us,
are you dropping out of the race?
611
00:41:14,505 --> 00:41:15,848
Was it a suicide?
612
00:41:15,940 --> 00:41:17,248
Was she your lover?
613
00:41:18,109 --> 00:41:19,952
- Senator Walsh, did you love her?
- Is your campaign over?
614
00:41:20,011 --> 00:41:21,490
Are you a lesbian?
615
00:41:28,853 --> 00:41:31,333
What's the best look for taking over a city?
616
00:41:32,156 --> 00:41:34,500
Stripes read serious.
617
00:41:37,528 --> 00:41:39,804
I don't know why everyone's so surprised.
618
00:41:40,498 --> 00:41:44,537
Worst-kept secret in Springfield,
Walsh being a muff-diver.
619
00:41:46,371 --> 00:41:49,818
This just came for you
from Mayor Kane's office.
620
00:41:49,874 --> 00:41:51,615
Last pitch for clemency?
621
00:41:58,216 --> 00:41:59,627
What is it?
622
00:42:04,055 --> 00:42:06,194
Get the Mayor on the line.
623
00:42:19,504 --> 00:42:22,747
Why didn't you answer?
Why didn't you call?
624
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:24,513
- This is dangerous, what we're doing.
- They won't know.
625
00:42:24,575 --> 00:42:26,851
No, this isn't about your parents.
It's about you.
626
00:42:26,911 --> 00:42:29,585
- Are you okay? What happened?
- I confronted her about everything.
627
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:30,681
We have to get you out of here.
628
00:42:30,748 --> 00:42:34,491
What, do you think I want to stay? Tell me.
Tell me what to do and I'll do it.
629
00:42:34,585 --> 00:42:37,896
What if your father negotiated a deal
with the States Attorney?
630
00:42:37,989 --> 00:42:39,263
You'd have to plead guilty.
631
00:42:39,357 --> 00:42:42,998
Emma, listen to me.
You'd have to play the part.
632
00:42:43,061 --> 00:42:46,338
I'm not one of their employees.
I don't have to eat their shit.
633
00:42:46,397 --> 00:42:48,206
You're right.
634
00:42:48,266 --> 00:42:51,372
So forget about what you have to do.
What do you want?
635
00:42:51,436 --> 00:42:53,939
I want them to pay for everything.
636
00:42:55,106 --> 00:42:57,518
So put on a dress.
paste on a smile, and take the long...
637
00:42:57,575 --> 00:43:00,112
The long view? He'll be dead soon.
638
00:43:01,012 --> 00:43:02,685
What?
639
00:43:02,747 --> 00:43:04,954
Lewy body dementia.
640
00:43:07,552 --> 00:43:11,694
Maybe that's justice enough.
You won't tell anyone? You can't.
641
00:43:13,291 --> 00:43:14,793
Of course not.
642
00:43:16,727 --> 00:43:20,402
More layoffs are planned
as the city's economic picture worsens.
643
00:43:20,531 --> 00:43:22,977
Governor Cullen is said
in be en route to City Hal!
644
00:43:23,067 --> 00:43:25,274
where he's expected
to make an announcement.
645
00:43:25,369 --> 00:43:28,873
Elizabeth Borden, the emergency manager
appointed by the Governor,
646
00:43:28,940 --> 00:43:30,749
could not be reached for comment,
647
00:43:30,808 --> 00:43:34,221
but observers expect her
to join the Governor for that briefing;.
648
00:43:43,421 --> 00:43:44,422
Anything at all?
649
00:43:44,789 --> 00:43:46,496
Sir, I wasn't able to...
650
00:43:48,559 --> 00:43:50,095
I'm sorry.
651
00:43:50,328 --> 00:43:52,740
I'm on my way in from the airport.
652
00:43:53,564 --> 00:43:54,907
Don't bother coming in.
653
00:43:55,333 --> 00:43:56,744
I want to.
654
00:43:58,169 --> 00:43:59,807
Suit yourself.
655
00:44:04,442 --> 00:44:06,012
No, everything's about to change.
656
00:44:06,577 --> 00:44:09,183
In fact, hell's about to freeze over.
657
00:44:09,413 --> 00:44:10,585
I've got to go.
658
00:44:11,249 --> 00:44:12,250
We heard from Kenya?
659
00:44:12,316 --> 00:44:14,193
Hasn't come by, hasn't called.
660
00:44:15,953 --> 00:44:18,331
This motherfucker gonna miss out
on all the fireworks.
661
00:44:19,857 --> 00:44:21,200
What brought you out here today?
662
00:44:21,292 --> 00:44:25,104
They closed the day care. I work all day.
Where am I supposed to put my children?
663
00:44:25,163 --> 00:44:29,669
The city's on edge as the deadline
approaches for Mayor Kane to cede...
664
00:44:29,767 --> 00:44:31,610
They got here this morning before I did.
665
00:44:33,204 --> 00:44:34,478
What do you think he's doing about all this?
666
00:44:34,539 --> 00:44:37,042
No idea.
All I know is how he spent the night.
667
00:44:37,141 --> 00:44:38,882
He come out at all? Make or take any calls?
668
00:44:38,976 --> 00:44:42,549
One from the Governor
and one from Mona, that's it.
669
00:44:43,681 --> 00:44:44,819
Yes?
670
00:44:47,218 --> 00:44:49,164
Cullen's on his way up.
671
00:44:51,322 --> 00:44:52,801
We'll need the briefing room.
672
00:44:52,857 --> 00:44:54,530
Please do what you can
to make it look presentable.
673
00:44:54,625 --> 00:44:55,968
Thank you.
674
00:44:57,828 --> 00:44:59,501
This is it.
675
00:44:59,564 --> 00:45:02,511
You gonna let him know
this is going down?
676
00:45:03,401 --> 00:45:05,642
Get the press room ready.
677
00:45:07,805 --> 00:45:11,309
Sir? Excuse me for interrupting.
678
00:45:11,409 --> 00:45:14,754
I wish City Hall was a taller building.
679
00:45:14,845 --> 00:45:16,347
Or closer to the water.
680
00:45:17,248 --> 00:45:19,250
Be nice to see the lake.
681
00:45:20,218 --> 00:45:24,030
The Governors arrived.
Presumably to hand control to Miss Borden.
682
00:45:25,590 --> 00:45:28,070
Some believe you think
more clearly near water.
683
00:45:28,259 --> 00:45:30,068
Have you heard that?
684
00:45:31,429 --> 00:45:35,206
Mr. Mayor, I cannot express to you strongly
enough the urgency of the situation.
685
00:45:36,867 --> 00:45:38,676
I don't want to see you surrender.
686
00:45:39,103 --> 00:45:41,083
Tell me what to do and I'll do it.
687
00:45:48,446 --> 00:45:49,789
Good man.
688
00:45:53,684 --> 00:45:55,095
Another day.
689
00:46:00,091 --> 00:46:01,536
Ready?
690
00:46:18,576 --> 00:46:21,147
Emma, please. I don't feel well.
691
00:46:24,215 --> 00:46:25,626
I know.
692
00:46:29,287 --> 00:46:31,324
Brought you some tea.
693
00:46:40,598 --> 00:46:43,511
I'm sorry. You were right.
694
00:46:43,601 --> 00:46:45,911
I have been using again. And...
695
00:46:47,405 --> 00:46:50,147
Made me a little crazy, I guess.
696
00:46:51,776 --> 00:46:55,519
But keeping me in my room
kind of forced me to get sober.
697
00:46:56,247 --> 00:46:57,453
And I'm glad.
698
00:46:57,848 --> 00:47:00,351
And I'm gonna be good now, Mom,
I promise.
699
00:47:01,852 --> 00:47:02,853
Okay.
700
00:47:13,364 --> 00:47:16,277
I heard on the radio there's
a press conference. What's going on?
701
00:47:16,667 --> 00:47:19,876
I don't know exactly. Kane's in with Cullen.
Do you have anything? Should I stop them?
702
00:47:20,004 --> 00:47:22,041
No, we're radioactive.
703
00:47:23,708 --> 00:47:25,881
Ross is here. Fucking vulture.
704
00:47:25,976 --> 00:47:27,011
I'm almost there.
705
00:47:27,478 --> 00:47:29,822
Hurry, they're about to start.
706
00:47:33,517 --> 00:47:36,361
- I haven't seen Borden go in yet. You?
- No.
707
00:47:36,454 --> 00:47:38,297
What's he doing here?
708
00:47:42,026 --> 00:47:44,529
To the people of Chicago, I'm sorry.
709
00:47:45,029 --> 00:47:47,066
We've suffered together.
710
00:47:47,465 --> 00:47:48,739
Tightened our hem.
711
00:47:49,734 --> 00:47:51,372
Made sacrifices.
712
00:47:53,404 --> 00:47:55,384
We can tolerate no more.
713
00:47:59,243 --> 00:48:01,018
And we don't have to.
714
00:48:01,078 --> 00:48:04,719
Along with my colleague in the Council,
Alderman William Ross
715
00:48:04,815 --> 00:48:06,590
and entrepreneur John Vacarro,
716
00:48:06,684 --> 00:48:11,565
we have put together a coalition of leaders
from both business and government
717
00:48:11,655 --> 00:48:17,435
lo build a dazzling complex on the grounds
formerly known as Lennox Gardens.
718
00:48:17,762 --> 00:48:22,336
A project to revitalize the city
and bring in tremendous revenues,
719
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,711
licensing fees, jobs and tourism.
720
00:48:25,770 --> 00:48:27,374
1 present to you,
721
00:48:27,438 --> 00:48:30,749
The Gardens Convention Center and Casino.
722
00:48:35,913 --> 00:48:42,421
Projected income, $2.6 billion
in the first five years, 1.1 billion in taxes.
723
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,761
A crucial percentage
going towards schools,
724
00:48:44,855 --> 00:48:48,064
libraries, parks, streets, transportation.
725
00:48:48,459 --> 00:48:52,566
Because of our coalition,
we are in receipt of this letter of credit,
726
00:48:52,630 --> 00:48:56,908
allowing the city to borrow
against the promise of this epic venture.
727
00:48:57,101 --> 00:48:59,707
And who better
to oversee such an undertaking
728
00:48:59,770 --> 00:49:02,717
than outgoing Governor Mac Cullen,
729
00:49:03,207 --> 00:49:07,451
who will serve as chairman for the Chicago
Gaming Authority at the end of his tenure.
730
00:49:08,312 --> 00:49:11,316
Ladies and gentlemen,
we're back in business.
731
00:49:17,087 --> 00:49:19,431
Now there are many, of course,
behind the scenes
732
00:49:19,490 --> 00:49:21,766
who helped bring this project to fruition.
733
00:49:22,993 --> 00:49:24,802
But I would like to thank one in particular.
734
00:49:24,895 --> 00:49:27,239
One who has been a tireless advocate
735
00:49:28,098 --> 00:49:32,069
and a driving force
in the redevelopment of Lennox Gardens,
736
00:49:32,603 --> 00:49:33,911
Mona Fredricks.
737
00:49:52,923 --> 00:49:55,665
Got a hit on this aged-up Boetker photo.
738
00:49:55,759 --> 00:49:58,433
This was less than a mile
from the site of the shooting.
739
00:49:58,496 --> 00:50:02,000
Only partial plates.
I assume you're running them now.
740
00:50:02,366 --> 00:50:06,473
So I would ask that you come back to me
with the full story, Detective.
741
00:50:09,106 --> 00:50:11,143
Seems the budget crisis is over.
742
00:50:11,208 --> 00:50:15,122
Public response to the Mayor's casino plan
has been largely positive.
743
00:50:15,179 --> 00:50:17,489
With the promise
of this large a cash infusion
744
00:50:17,548 --> 00:50:19,391
over the course of the next few years,
745
00:50:19,483 --> 00:50:22,020
several banks have agreed
to provide low-interest loans,
746
00:50:22,119 --> 00:50:24,998
and the emergency manager
has been sent packing;.
747
00:50:25,055 --> 00:50:26,056
With continued...
748
00:50:27,191 --> 00:50:31,037
A goddamn casino,
with everything that implies.
749
00:50:31,562 --> 00:50:35,032
Now we know why he wanted us
to prosecute Babe McGantry.
750
00:50:35,132 --> 00:50:37,339
Kane just sold the land we seized.
751
00:50:37,401 --> 00:50:41,816
I took the fucking bait
for this lawyered-up piece of shit.
752
00:50:43,908 --> 00:50:45,387
Fucking fuck!
753
00:50:58,422 --> 00:50:59,594
Yes?
754
00:51:01,091 --> 00:51:02,092
What is it?
755
00:51:02,259 --> 00:51:03,260
I just...
756
00:51:04,895 --> 00:51:06,203
Very well played, sir.
757
00:51:10,267 --> 00:51:15,182
And I can't begin to tell you
what an honor it is to be in your service.
758
00:51:16,574 --> 00:51:19,020
Considering the way things went today,
759
00:51:19,076 --> 00:51:21,022
that could be the case
for a long time to come.
760
00:51:21,879 --> 00:51:23,119
I certainly hope so.
761
00:51:37,061 --> 00:51:39,371
And suddenly he's the messiah.
762
00:51:41,465 --> 00:51:45,208
He's untouchable now, Sam.
You know that, don't you?
763
00:51:55,045 --> 00:51:56,547
You all right?
764
00:51:57,648 --> 00:51:59,992
I don't know what I am anymore.
765
00:52:00,317 --> 00:52:04,322
I'm assuming that they weren't
into recreational drugs, Walsh and...
766
00:52:05,990 --> 00:52:07,094
Tina.
767
00:52:07,391 --> 00:52:09,769
I heard it was probably ketamine.
768
00:52:10,327 --> 00:52:14,275
Is it possible? Could he be that evil?
Could he have done this?
769
00:52:15,265 --> 00:52:17,745
Can't imagine it was anyone else.
770
00:52:18,802 --> 00:52:21,612
Catherine wasn't going to work for him.
771
00:52:22,506 --> 00:52:23,507
Ever.
772
00:52:24,141 --> 00:52:25,984
See, that's what I don't get.
773
00:52:26,076 --> 00:52:28,317
I was still in this race.
I could have won it on my own.
774
00:52:28,512 --> 00:52:31,982
Not what he wanted.
And you weren't gonna win, Ben.
775
00:52:33,117 --> 00:52:35,358
We all but bought Cook County.
776
00:52:38,522 --> 00:52:40,195
What'll she do? Walsh.
777
00:52:42,292 --> 00:52:46,331
Open a homicide investigation.
Not much else she can do.
778
00:52:49,033 --> 00:52:50,535
You're gonna be the next governor.
779
00:52:53,203 --> 00:52:55,114
He owns you.
780
00:53:06,050 --> 00:53:07,723
There you are.
781
00:53:11,488 --> 00:53:13,024
So...
782
00:53:13,123 --> 00:53:15,069
What do you want to do?
783
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:18,062
You know what I want.
784
00:53:18,896 --> 00:53:20,398
Not this.
785
00:53:22,132 --> 00:53:23,736
What do you want to do now?
786
00:53:26,136 --> 00:53:29,583
Those TARP funds you had me chasing,
787
00:53:29,673 --> 00:53:31,653
we were never gonna get them, were we?
788
00:53:34,044 --> 00:53:38,015
You just wanted me out of the way
so you could do this.
789
00:53:40,084 --> 00:53:42,155
You have a daughter, yes?
790
00:53:43,587 --> 00:53:45,191
Mine's 10.
791
00:53:47,725 --> 00:53:53,073
It always mattered very much to me
that she was proud of me.
792
00:53:54,431 --> 00:53:56,001
What I do.
793
00:53:58,235 --> 00:54:00,340
And yet, I'm still here.
794
00:54:01,605 --> 00:54:04,108
Sol must be lying to someone.
795
00:54:07,945 --> 00:54:10,016
And what about you?
796
00:54:10,848 --> 00:54:12,521
Who are you lying to?
797
00:54:14,885 --> 00:54:18,890
There was no political upside
to the promises you made.
798
00:54:18,956 --> 00:54:22,403
So either you give a shit
and you pussied out,
799
00:54:23,694 --> 00:54:26,368
or you're a motherfucking lunatic!
800
00:54:30,734 --> 00:54:32,736
Which is it, Tom?
801
00:54:51,755 --> 00:54:55,828
Your naivety was charming
for a time, Miss Fredricks.
802
00:54:59,997 --> 00:55:01,772
Even enchanting.
803
00:55:04,635 --> 00:55:07,980
I wondered what it would feel like
to bask in the admiration
804
00:55:08,071 --> 00:55:10,915
of someone so pure of intent.
805
00:55:15,345 --> 00:55:16,756
It was nice.
806
00:55:20,184 --> 00:55:21,788
But now I know.
807
00:55:24,288 --> 00:55:28,361
Don't bother to collect your things.
I'll have someone send them along.
808
00:55:31,128 --> 00:55:34,007
And give my best to Bitsy.
809
00:55:38,669 --> 00:55:41,172
I'm sure she's very proud of you.
810
00:56:00,657 --> 00:56:03,501
- Miss.
- Yes?
811
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:05,506
If you wouldn't mind?
812
00:56:11,969 --> 00:56:13,004
What is this about?
813
00:56:13,637 --> 00:56:15,082
Get in!
814
00:56:16,907 --> 00:56:18,181
Now!
