حضرة الملازم أو ل أقسم إن ها لم تكن فكرتي

00:00:04.007 --> 00:00:06.008

كنت أهتم بشؤوني وأقوم بعملي

00:00:06.009 --> 00:00:09.003

ودعاني إلى مكتبه لاحتساء القهوة وتناول الحلوى

00:00:09.003 --> 00:00:12.006

لم أزر الطبقة الثامنة من قبل في هذا المبنى

00:00:13.004 --> 00:00:18.009

وأخبرني نائب رئيس العملي ات كم هو مهتم بالقضي ة

00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:21.004

وكيف أن ه عليه أن يبقى على اط لاع

00:00:23.002 --> 00:00:26.003

أقصد إن ه نائب رئيس العمليات بحق السماء

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.264

Je vous jure que c'était pas mon idée

00:00:04.057 --> 00:00:06.902

Je fais mon truc putain je fais mon boulot

00:00:07.002 --> 00:00:09.027

et le type m'appelle pour prendre un café

00:00:09.375 --> 00:00:12.936

J'ai jamais été au 8e étage de ce putain de bâtiment

00:00:13.045 --> 00:00:14.672

Et je vois le préfet adjoint

00:00:14.078 --> 00:00:17.374

qui me raconte qu'il s'inquiète de l'affaire

00:00:18.818 --> 00:00:20.718

qu'il a besoin d'être informé

00:00:23.998 --> 00:00:25.684

C'est le préfet adjoint putain

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.264

Lieutenant ich schwöre das war nicht meine Idee

00:00:04.057 --> 00:00:06.902

Ich kümmere mich um meinen Kram mache meinen verdammten Job

00:00:07.002 --> 00:00:09.027

als der Mann mich einfach auf einen Kaffee und einen Donut einlädt

00:00:09.375 --> 00:00:12.936

Ich meine davor war ich noch nicht mal im 8 Stockwerk dieses verfluchten Gebäudes

00:00:13.045 --> 00:00:14.672

Und da sitzt also der Deputy

00:00:14.078 --> 00:00:17.305

und erzählt mir wie besorgt er wegen des Falles sei

00:00:18.818 --> 00:00:20.718

und dass er informiert werden müsse

00:00:23.998 --> 00:00:25.684

Ich meine es ist immerhin der verdammte Deputy Mann

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.264

Лейтенант клянусь это была не моя идея

00:00:04.057 --> 00:00:06.902

Я думал о своих делах делал свою долбаную работу

00:00:07.002 --> 00:00:09.027

когда меня пригласили на кофе с пирожными

00:00:09.375 --> 00:00:12.936

Я никогда не был на восьмом этаже этого долбаного здания

00:00:13.045 --> 00:00:14.672

И там был помощник по долбаным оперативным вопросам

00:00:14.078 --> 00:00:17.305

он рассказал о том как он переживает за это дело

00:00:18.818 --> 00:00:20.718

и о том как ему нужно быть в его курсе

00:00:23.998 --> 00:00:25.684

Он же помощник по оперативным

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.264

Teniente le juro que no fue mi idea

00:00:04.057 --> 00:00:06.902

Yo estaba metido en lo mío haciendo mi trabajo

00:00:07.002 --> 00:00:09.027

y él me llamó para tomar un café

00:00:09.375 --> 00:00:12.936

Nunca había estado en el octavo piso de ese edificio

00:00:13.045 --> 00:00:14.672

Y el Subdirector de Operaciones

00:00:14.078 --> 00:00:17.442

me dijo lo preocupado que estaba por el caso

00:00:18.818 --> 00:00:20.718

y que necesitaba información

00:00:23.998 --> 00:00:25.684

ÉI es el Subdirector de Operaciones

Movie Summary

Told from the points of view of both the Baltimore homicide and narcotics detectives and their targets, the series captures a universe in which the national war on drugs has become a permanent, self-sustaining bureaucracy, and distinctions between good and evil are routinely obliterated.
