- Hey.
- Hi.

So here's what I'm thinking.

It's April Fool's Day, which
means nothing counts, right?

- April Fool's is tomorrow.
- It's 12:01.

And if we play our cards right,
we can use April Fool's Day

as a hall pass.

We're not actually together,

but we can pretend
we're together

as an April Fool's Day
prank, just for today.

And if anybody raises a
flag, we'll say, surprise.

It's an April Fool's joke,
and everyone will laugh.

And we can...
- Uh-huh.

- Mm-hmm.
- Okay, wow.

Mm, I've... I've clearly
been doing April Fool's wrong

my whole life.

So we're... we're not
actually together,

but we're making out in
secret like we are together?

- Yeah.
- So what's the prank?

Do you want to talk
about April Fool's Day,

or do you want to
take your pants off?

[distant telephone ringing]
- Oh, you get my email?

You mean the one with the
subject "Ben Dover Case"?

Yeah, not the most
original April Fool's joke.

It's not a joke...
Dover's a real defendant

who demanded a speedy
trial nine days ago.

Peters was handling it until
he landed in the hospital

with a severe case
of food poisoning.

So you're telling me that I
have to go to trial tomorrow

for a murder case I've
never heard of because

Ron Peters ate bad paella?
- Uh-huh.

And that's not an
April Fool's joke.

- Mm-mm.
- I hate you.

I know.

But this will pass, and then
we'll go back to being besties.

- Uh, my wife's my bestie.
- Ugh, boring.

[indistinct chatter]

- Officer Nolan?
- Yeah?

I'm your new rookie,
Connor Craig.

Oh. [laughs] Nice try.

Yeah, I don't, uh... I don't
fall for April Fool's pranks.

Oh, no, sir. No, it's...
it's not a prank.

I-I just transferred
over from West Valley.

I've been training
with Sergeant McAdams

the last 12 months.
- Oh, yeah.

It's a good story.

I would have gone
with six months,

because nobody
transfers divisions

with one month left
in their probation,

and you should have
picked a different TO.

McAdams is a department legend.

That makes your prank
easily disprovable.

[chuckles] Yes, sir.

All valid points
if I were joking.

Which I'm not. [chuckles]

He's not joking. It was
a last-minute transfer.

And I forgot to
tell you. My bad.

- Mm-hmm.
- "Mm-hmm"?

Do I seem like a fan of
tomfoolery, Officer Nolan?

No, sir, but that could all
be part of your master plan...

a five-year-long con to make
me believe that you're not

into pulling pranks just
to spring this on me now,

which seems less and less
likely now that I explain it.

Exactly.

Rather than looking a
gift horse in the mouth,

you should be doing backflips.

Craig's record is
exemplary and spotless.

All you have to do is not
screw up for the next 30 days,

and you will be
credited for turning out

a second top-notch rookie.
- Yes, sir.

- So don't screw up.
- You said that already.

Hmm.

How exactly are we
pulling this prank off?

No, Grey hates pranks

Are you implying I'm

- Wow.

All right, today is
April Fool's Day...

by far the most annoying
day of the year.

So, with Officer Penn
out for trial prep,

Sergeant Bradford will be your
go-to supervisor for the day.

And for other news, Officer
Nolan has a new rookie.

Stand up. State your
name and badge number.

Officer Connor Craig,
badge number 382610.

Officer Craig trained under
legendary Sergeant McAdams

and earned top marks.

But as we know, training
isn't over until it's over.

All right, let's get to it.

Be safe out there.
[indistinct chatter]

[horn blaring]

Ah, I'm sorry. I'm nervous.

My last TO didn't really
let me drive much.

But it's a required
element of your training.

Right, right.

He did enough to evaluate me,
but driving was his domain.

Okay, well, he was a legend,

so I guess I'll defer
to his judgment.

But I still have to
evaluate you fully.

Of course.

All right, let's, uh, start
with traffic-stop procedures.

Head north on LaBrea.

The closer we get to
Sunset, the more likely

we are to find someone
driving like a fool.

Cool. It's, uh, right, right?

- No, north is left.
- Oh, sorry.

- It's left.
- Oh, boy.

[horn honking, tires squealing]

Okay.

I think I am seeing why McAdams
didn't want you driving.

Ah, sorry.

- What?
- Nothing.

- What?
- Nothing.

It's just, uh, you're glowing.

I'm what?

Your aura, it's...

You had sex.
- [scoffs]

I did not. I did not!

I am feeling kind of sparkly
today, though, so thank you.

Okay.

- What?
- Nothing.

It's just... I noticed your
hand touched Tim's at roll call.

Is that how you think sex works?

[mockingly] Ha ha.

No, but, seriously, I mean, you
can trust me with your secret.

We're roomies.
- No, I-I know.

I know that, but,
seriously, nothing...

nothing is going on.

Okay.

[indistinct chatter]

I'm sorry, but I can't do that.

What's going on?

Apparently, our
social-media intern posted

that it was Parking
Ticket Amnesty Day.

Just bring in your ticket,
and all will be forgiven.

We have a social-media intern?

Not for long, because
I'm going to kill her.

Okay.

Everybody listen up.

If you are here because
of the amnesty post,

it's an April Fool's joke, okay?

You still have to
pay your tickets.

Now, the good news is
you're in the right place

to get that done.

Fire, right?

No, not fire, unless it's

Mm, Captain gave me a

Look, once parking tickets are

They can't legally be waived,

Yeah, there's, like, an
art to giving criticism.

Fine.

Get on it.

Could have been

- Wesley.

I heard you're taking
over the Ben Dover case.

Literally fell into my lap.

I'm just trying to
get up to speed,

but I would love a continuance.
- Oh, I'm sure you would.

But there's not
a chance in hell.

See, my client has a
right to a speedy trial.

If you can't provide that, then
you're violating his rights,

and the judge will
dismiss the case.

Oh, right.

You're smiling because you
smell blood in the water,

because I only have the
rest of the day to make sure

your client doesn't walk.
- 100%.

Mm-hmm.

See, being a public
defender is a thankless,

bad-paying job with few
wins against a DA's office

that punishes the poor
and loves to rub my nose

in the mud at every turn.

So your distress is a
rare moment of karmic joy

that I would have
brought popcorn for

had I known in advance.
- Mm-hmm.

But, uh, hey, you want
to cut your losses

and save the rest of your
day, then drop the charges.

I can't. It's murder.
There's an eyewitness.

What about a plea deal?
- Nope.

My guy is innocent and adamant
to have his day in court.

Okay.

See you there bright and early.

[laughs] I'll definitely
be bringing popcorn.

Ahh.

Angela, hey.

I need to ask you a favor.

All right.

Oh, I have seemed

Sorry, one second. Let me...

- Hey. You called for backup?
- No. Witnesses.

Ah, shoot. [muttering]

You are definitely being punked.

Right? There is no

with 12 months of training.

Maybe he's just nervous
about impressing you...

Here you are. Easy as pie.

Okay, well, this is...
this is all wrong.

Oh, yeah. You made that

Well, you told me to tell you.

But I'm excited to
experience my first with you.

What do I need to know?

Okay, cops like to use
acronyms to remember things.

And today you're going
to learn the GMBIT...

the G-M-B-I-T of
domestic disputes.

[car doors closing]

[distant dogs barking,
car horn honking]

[muffled shouting]

It's always a good idea
just to stand to the side,

just in case of potential
incoming gunfire.

You think he's
gonna shoot at us?

No, but you should do things
the right way every time.

That way, the moves
become automatic.

Knock on the door.
- Police! Open up!

[distant dog barking,
siren wailing]

What do you want? Wait.

Did you call them?
- No.

No, baby, I would...
I would never.

Uh, sir, we received multiple
calls about a disturbance.

We just wanted to make sure
that everything was all right.

We're fine.

And you're not coming in
my house without a warrant.

Now, the first step in
GMBIT is G, "Get inside."

Now explain to the gentleman
we don't need a warrant

to investigate domestic violence

and that we hate to
disturb him, but by law,

we can't leave until
we resolve this.

And what if he slams
the door on us?

Well, then we would
have to destroy the door

and probably arrest him.

You got two minutes.

You two look so
familiar. Have we met?

I'm a friend of James
Murray and his wife, Nyla.

Teddy and I were at that
fundraising gala last month.

That's right, Children
of the Fallen.

And you had a
drunken altercation

with Sergeant Bradford.

All right, now we
are in the house.

Step two is M, "Make it safe."

Do you see anything unsafe?

You know, someone...
not you, Teddy...

might use that
bottle as a weapon,

which would mean we
would have to use force.

So let's not have that.

I am so sorry.

He just lost his job, and
it's been a really tough week.

Shut your mouth.

You don't have to tell everybody

all our business all the time.

Which brings us to B,
as in "Be observant,"

so that we can,
I, "Investigate."

Teddy has clearly had
too much to drink.

Anita is upset.

Why don't you go talk to her
and figure out what happened?

No, just go talk to her alone.

Walk behind me.

Stay where I can see you.

Hey, and don't say
nothing about nothing.

Cops trying to jam me
up in my own house.

You're new, huh?

Let's talk about you.

What's going on?
We're here to help.

He just gets drunk,
then mad at the world.

Everybody else did him wrong,
and nothing is his fault.

He's... he's never
hit me, but...

he scares me.

And I am so tired
of being scared.

Well, look, we can
take care of him today.

But if this continues, you
can... you can always call us.

We also have
resources to help you

if you decide that you
want to get away from him.

All right. Thank you.

Yeah.

Which brings us to T, for
"Take appropriate action."

What do we have, Officer Craig?
- Negative 2735.

But she wants him to
leave. She's afraid.

Well, she just gonna
have to be afraid, then.

It's not a crime to tie
one on in my own house.

I know my rights.

We are simply concerned

that you are a danger to
yourself or to others.

So you're gonna have to come
with us... no criminal charges...

just to see a nurse
so you can sober up

and cool down alone.

Officer Craig, search
Teddy for weapons,

and escort him to the shop.

Hey, don't touch me.
I pay your salary.

[dramatic music]

- That changes...
- [groaning]

The taking action part of it.

Now there will be
criminal charges.

And that is the
"Gambit" of handling

a domestic disturbance.

[groans]

I don't understand.

On paper, the kid's
a rock-star trainee.

All his daily observation
reports are signed off.

Craig's checklist is
practically complete.

Yes, sir.

And yet there are significant
holes in his training.

His officer safety and
his perception of danger

a-are nonexistent.

He struggled with a
basic traffic citation.

I find that hard to believe.

McAdams is a highly
respected FTO.

I know, but I am
telling you, sir,

there is no way Officer Craig

is going to be ready in a month.

Hell, he... he may not even
make it to the end of the day.

So what do you want me to do?
- Um...

it's ultimately your call,

but I would think carefully
before bouncing him.

You trained a
stellar first rookie.

But if you're handed an
LAPD legend's trainee

and he fails in a week,

the captain might think
the problem is you.

Understood.

And you're sure
this isn't a prank?

Beca... No, I'm sorry.

But if it was...

I'm on it.

Why are we here,

instead of the Ben
Dover lead investigator?

I left two messages
for Detective Berman

that he has not returned, and
I do not have time to wait.

I have to decide by tonight
whether I am going to trial

or dropping charges.

But as a thank-you,

I'm ordering lunch
in from République.

Oh, well, you should
have led with that.

As you can see from the file,
our victim, Frank Harbolt,

was killed in the parking
garage of his office building.

Now, the eyewitness,
a maintenance worker,

claims to have seen Ben
Dover following Harbolt

out of the elevator

and returning alone
five minutes later

and dropping something
into a garbage can.

The police later found
the murder weapon

in that same trash can.

Is there a relationship
between Dover and the victim?

No.

They work in the same building,
but no direct contact.

So your whole case basically
rests on the believability

of your witness?
- Yep.

And she's in there, waiting
to talk to us... come on.

[distant siren wailing]

[knock at door]

Hey.

Um, I-I was told

that I wouldn't have to testify.

- Told by who?
- Detective Berman.

He said that the killer would
take a plea deal, no sweat.

Why are you nervous
about testifying?

I'm not. I'm just...
Berman said that...

Okay, forget about
what Berman said.

Let's talk about your testimony.

You said that you saw Ben
Dover follow Frank Harbolt

into the garage.

There were a few
minutes between them,

but Berman said that...
- Hold on.

Did Detective Berman coach you

on what to say in
your testimony?

No.

[laughs nervously] No,
no, it's just he, um...

Define coach?

Okay. You know
what? Just, um...

just give us a couple minutes.

You should drop the case.

She'll get killed in
a cross-examination.

Okay, but is she lying,
or did Berman just shape

her testimony to
be more definitive?

- Neither is good.
- [sighs]

Will you talk to Berman?
- [scoffs] Forget it.

Look, if I do it, he's
going to shut down,

and I don't have
time to pressure him.

I have to make a decision
in a couple hours.

I need to know if
this case is winnable.

We'll do it for a
price... a spa weekend

for me and my partner.
- Mm.

And when you say "my
partner," you mean my wife?

Unless she thinks
that we should give

her husband a freebie.
- Oh, hell no.

in your training.

Hi, I'm looking for
Sergeant McAdams.

His station says he's here
taking some statements.

- He's in the ER.
- I-I memorized the Rook Book.

Go ahead. Ask me anything.

It's about a failure to
translate words into actions.

Mid-Wilshire Station.

You his new TO?

I am, and I've noticed
some gaps in his training.

- You here to cause trouble?
- No, sir.

No, I'm just... I'm
looking for some clarity.

I mean, you are a legend
in the department,

a-and this kid spent
a year with you,

but he has no practical
understanding of the job.

[body cams beep]

Look, I was supposed
to retire last year.

Stayed on as a
favor to my captain.

Craig shows up.

He's got no instincts, no
fire, no command presence.

- Why not just bounce him?
- And go out on a loser?

Finish my career on a fail?

No way.

So I carried him. Only
took low-impact calls.

I got the seniority
to pull it off, so...

Only you did chicken
out in the end.

You forced the transfer

so that you wouldn't be the
one who put an untrained cop

onto the street.

You got no right to judge me.

Actually, I do,

because I'm the cop who
could have been killed today

on a domestic because
