Once the crew realizes Lomans backup is arriving at the armored truck, everybody bolts. Well, everybody except the second driver because hes already dead, shot during the firefight. Before Harlee blacks out, she sees a masked figure approaching. Credit: Peter Kramer/NBC When she next comes to, Woz is hauling her out of the car. Though their good looks remain intact, the money is all gone. He cuffs him and takes him in for questioning....
Starting in Good Cop, Bad Cop, youre either one or the other. Thats where his wife, Linda, finds him. She expresses sympathy but quickly tells Woz to buck up.

They enter the bathroom, and we see Mannys face is covered in blood....
Los performance immediately becomes more dynamic and believable for it). Wozniaks bad streak, on the other hand, has only widened in the wake of Sapersteins death. After the service, Woz and Harlee sit on a bench and share in their mourning. Credit: Giovanni Rufino/NBC Maybe she doesnt even know herself. When she returns from the funeral, she finds Stahl camped out in her stairwell. He hands over her new wire: Its the same necklace that contained the original camera....
As Wozs paranoid calculations wind down, his worldview, compounded by decades of police work, becomes clear. Because theyre family, and family looks after its own. Is the FBI compromised as well?

This time, the driver does more than circle: He shoots out the buildings windows before speeding away....
Minutes later, he watches as Stahl ushers NYPDs finest out of the building. Its the look-alike escort from a few episodes ago, whom Stahl is apparently still seeing. The gross-out factor with this guy continues to climb to new heights. Credit: Peter Kramer/NBC Those bruises Cristina saw covering her mothers face? She fell down the stairs. Dumb-dumb that she is, Cristina falls for this one hook, line, and sinker. Cristina replies that she does have family: Aunt Tess, Uncle Tufo, Uncle Woz....

Theyve gotten a call from a laundromat, one of the businesses they protect for a payout. Harlee has more important things to be dealing with right now. But for once, Woz shows some compassion.

All that would justify a sick day for any normal person, but Harlees just getting started. She exits Navas place around 3 a.m., only to find Stahl waiting for her across the street. Hes there ostensibly to pick up her recorder, but hes clearly just jealous of Harlees new boo. Credit: Virginia Sherwood/NBC Which she does because Wozniak is getting seriously paranoid. If Harlee is having a tough evening, Loman isnt faring any better....
So much about this character feels like pure fantasy. Her first name sounds like a motorcycle. Harlee is obviously a very bad girl, so why not a dirty cop too?

Thats important, since were also supposed to empathize with Harlee, even at her most corrupt. Either she turns on him, or he turns on her harder....
But now that Im at the end … I cant justify anything. We flash back to two weeks earlier, when a very different Harlee Santos confidently struts across the screen. Credit: Peter Kramer/NBC Its gonna be a wild ride. As they approach the apartment in question, shots ring out.

So each week, I have taken it upon myself to delineate whether that implicit promise is being upheld. Note: Jeans do not count....
The actress serves and protects as an NYPD cop in her brand-new show Jenny is staking out the block. Its not a gift, says Lopezs detective Harlee Santos, handing over a fat bag of hush money. One thing is obvious: Lopez certainly knows how to work her angles. Credit: Peter Kramer/NBC I definitely wasnt looking for an acting role on TV, says Lopez. But NBCs response was really strong, and they were like, How are you not playing this role?...
