Oh, my goodness.

Your knees ever feel
like they got

about one case left in 'em?

It's two flights
of stairs, Reagan.

It's good cardio.

Yeah, but there was
a perfectly healthy elevator

waiting for us.

I'll carry you
on my back next time.

I can't wait.

Been carrying you on mine
for the better part of a decade.

You would be lost
without me.

I would.
It's true.

Happy now?

Hey. What do
we got, Willie?

Treasure hunter.

Keep him here.

Bought the unit down here

at auction,
cut off the padlock,

and got a surprise.

Treasure hunter?

You know, when a guy
doesn't pay his bill,

the owner of the place
sells the unit sight unseen

to a guy hoping
to find a treasure.

What's the surprise?

The kind of treasure
only you two find valuable.

The offer is

misdemeanor assault,

probation,
an anger management program,

and a final order of protection.

All that
for some little tiff.

Tiff?

You harassed your neighbor
for over a year,

put him a chokehold
until he passed out,

all over a fence dispute?

That jerk made
verbal threats.

That jerk was 72 years old.

Ms. Reagan,
may I remind you

that during my
client's time

as an officer
with the NYPD,

chokehold was both
legal and encouraged.

Yes, well, times change
and so do the laws.

Your old man
ought to be ashamed.

The only one who's
going to be ashamed is you

if this goes to trial
and the jury convicts,

which they will, so sign it.

Pass.

What?

We won't be signing anything.

You agreed to this on the phone.

Then did you one better, sweetheart.

What is he talking about?

We've secured a last-minute
expert witness who will testify

to the NYPD's evolution
on chokehold policy.

Uh, but more importantly,
to Mr. Mathers' character

while on the force.

And who would that be?

The name Henry Reagan

ring a bell?

See you in court.

You fed it mice?

What was I supposed
to feed it? A salad?

Ugh, I would never
have a pet snake.

Hey, a snake
is a cool pet.

Yeah, for nerdy dudes
and goth girls.

Which are you?

What the hell is that?

Whoa, hey!

You folks okay?

You okay?

That is a public nuisance.

Come on.
Let's go.

- What do we want?
- Climate justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- No, I can't hear you!
- Coming through.

- Climate justice!
- Everybody,

take a step back.
When do we want it?

Now!
Move. All right.

Let's go, let's go.
We need you to come
down from there.

Leave Nico alone.
He's an artist.

- Until he breaks his neck.
- Let's go.

Come on, man,
let's get you down.
Get out of here, man!

Hey!
That's assault!

Are you gonna let 'em stop us?

No!

Everybody take a step back.
Get out of the way!
Get out...

What are you doing?

- Get down now!
- Hey!

Nico, listen to me!
It's a big fall.

You got to get down.
It's not safe.

You really want to gamble
with your life like that?

Leave me alone!

Nico, slowly step down.

Come on, everybody,
everybody-- Hey!

Hands behind your back.

He didn't do anything wrong.

You happy?
Now you're under arrest.

Listen, guys,
I-I can't go to jail.

I'm donating a kidney
in a few days.

That's a new one.

Come on, pal.

But he's on his way?
He'll be here any minute.

A firefighter's funeral
is always tough.

Yeah, well, the only
thing worse is a cop's.

Yeah, but the firefighters
are like wall-to-wall

with the bagpipes.

Hi there.

I won't ask how it was.

Same as it always is.

What is it

with the bagpipes?

They're like a-a dog whistle

that your tear ducts can hear.

And, uh...

we already had
our morning briefing.

Well, let's file it under
"while you were out."

Okay, uh, let's have it.

While you were out,
the mayor tended the rally

for the migrant kids who
also died in that blaze.

I wondered where he was.

Some firemen egged his car
as he left the rally.

Got into it a little
with his detail.

Luckily, no injuries.

Or arrests made.

But moments after
she left the funeral,

the fire commissioner tweeted,

Mayor spits on FDNY.

Chase burned our trust."

Well, Veronica Radley
is somewhat new to the job.

And that excuses the low road?

We all started on the low road.

Well, Chase tweeted back,
basically saying:

She'd better learn
to keep her mouth shut

'cause she works for him.

And now they're shooting
flamethrowers at each other.

Pardon the pun.

But a good one, anyway.

Abigail, have my detail
bring my car back.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, boss,
this ain't your fight.

Yeah, this sounds like
Hizzoner versus FDNY to me.

I'll give the mayor's office
a heads-up.

Oh, I'll tell you what.

Let's surprise him.

Bam!

Nice catch.
You're a TikTok cop,
Badillo.

Hey.

You want to watch?

I was there, remember?

You know, next time people
film us collaring someone,

we should do, like, a high five
or signature dance.

Signature dance?

I've got moves.
Yeah, and I can move on
to another partner, you know.

Hey, all right.
Nico, time to go

to central booking...
Uh...

Hey, boss?

Where's our prisoner?

He left about 15 minutes ago.

What do you mean, "left"?

He was signed out
by Detective Ray Strickler,

from the 8-7 squad.

And you just let him go?

Strickler said he was gonna
throw the kid in a lineup.

Showed me a shield, ID card.

Gave me a squad car number.

I mean, I've seen him here
a time or two,

so, off they went.

What the hell?

I'm gonna find out
what the hell.

Hey, Detective Gilliam,

this is Officer Janko
from the 2-9.

Yeah, can I talk
to Detective Ray Strickler?

What?

Okay, th-thank you.

And?

Detective Ray Strickler

retired from the 8-7
three years ago.

Hello?

Grady Simms?

Yeah, who are you?

Detective Reagan,
Detective Baez.

You're the police? That's cool.

Maybe not so cool
when we get to talking

about your storage unit, though.

I don't have one of those.
Uh...

Midtown Storage
number 226.

The owner ID'd you
as the renter

since 2020.

Well, why'd he tell you that?

Cops ask people questions.

People tell cops stuff.

You're the police?

- That's cool.
- Mm-hmm.

Sir, there were human remains
found in your storage unit.

So we need to ask you
some questions.

No one's allowed to come in.

I'm not even supposed
to open the door.

So how come you opened the door?

I couldn't see out the peephole.

That was weird.

Sir, how old are you?

Uh, 47.

And you live here alone?

Why are you asking me all this?

Like we said, we have questions
about a very serious crime, sir.

So, you're the police?
Yep.

That's cool. Hope you solve it.

Bye.
Sir--

Um, what was
that about?

We're the cops.
Cool.

Apparently not.

Commissioner, thank you
for coming in.

Even if without an invitation.

It's my pleasure and I'm sorry
about the short notice.

But not the mystery?

You did come up
the service elevator.

Well, see, I have
a private elevator

for visits like this.

You should think
about getting one.

And just what are
visits like this?

Hopefully, well, private.

Just you and me.

But in reality, it's you, me
and the mayor who sent you?

He did not.

Really?
No.

I heard about the incident

between your people
and his detail

and I came straight here.

Carrying his water.

I can find my way out,
if you like.

I happen to be
one of the few people

who can hopefully
and honestly say

I know exactly how you feel.

Skipping Ben Kelly's funeral
and then attending a rally

for the people
who likely caused the fire?

Well--

You need to be careful there.

They lost people, too.

You're defending him.

No, I am arguing
for different tactics.

Like?

Like, for starters,

lowering the temperature.

Raising it seems
to have worked very well.

It got you to come
running over here.

Yeah, to tell you to cool it.

Frank. Excuse me,

may I call you Frank?
Sure.

Chase brought me up
through the ranks

to give a "new perspective
to an old boys' club."

Those were his words
at my swearing in.

And what has he done
since then?

He has ignored
every single issue

I have brought up.

Especially the fact that so many
of these migrant shelters

are firetraps.

This was completely preventable.

And I'm not defending him.

You have rocked your own boat
a million times.

Absolutely, yes,

in back rooms
and private channels.

That's how things get done
efficiently

in jobs like ours.

Except when "jobs like ours"
means putting one of ours

in the ground.

And the mayor of this city

can't even be bothered
to show up.

Just like you said,

you know exactly how I feel.

So please tell me...

...what, exactly, would you do?

Grandpa?

In here.

Proceed with caution.

The last thing
I want to do is have to report

an esteemed bureau chief

for witness tampering.

The moment I walk in here,
I am just your granddaughter.

Oh, well, then,
let's have at it.

Have you lost your damn mind?!

I didn't mean both barrels.

You're testifying
for the defense?

I am.

You hate defense attorneys.

I hate the arrogant ones.

And Preston Ellis isn't one?

Not as arrogant
as this case is important.

They need
expert testimony.

That expert is me.

Don't you see that
they are using you

because they know I can't
cross-examine my own grandfather

on the stand?

I'm no one's pawn.

If you believe that,
then you really are...

What? A silly old fool?

I didn't say that.

I think you've said enough.

But this guy Math...

Erin.

I've been at this game

since before you were born,

so I know how
to judge people,

and, even better,
how to watch my own back.

Okay, but Grandpa...

End of story.

End of discussion.

We're out on a limb here, Eddie.

IAB handles
police impersonators.

McNichols said
she'd stall 'em.

Why? She could lose her command
over all of this.

She knows I want to hear what
this guy has to say for himself.

Mr. Strickler?

Please, call me Ray.

And I know you're here
about Nico Hall.

Want to tell us
why you took him?

The only reason
I'd ever break the law.

Come in.

For my daughter,

Kathryn.

I'm... not sure I understand.

I'm real sure
I don't.

She's in end-stage
renal failure.

A lifelong thing, but it's
accelerated the last few years.

She's why I left the job.

To take care of her?

Her mom died years ago,

so it's all up to me.
Well, and Nico.

How?

He's donating the kidney

my angel needs
next week.

You got to be kidding me.

And we didn't
believe him.
Well, why would you?

We all know a collar will
say anything to wiggle free.

Yeah, but if Nico got
jammed up in the system,

he'd miss that surgery.

And I just could not let that
happen, not after everything

we've been through
trying to find her match.

Yeah.
Then it turns out
it's her boyfriend.

They're dating?

Oh, I was never a fan.

You know, give me a doctor
or a lawyer,

not some kid
who's an artist.

But Nico stepped up,
so I had to, as well.

Look, Ray,

we're really sorry
about your situation...

But your stepping up was
Criminal Impersonation

of a Police Officer.

Hindering Prosecution.

Okay, what my partner means
is that if you'd just

come to us, we could've
issued Nico a DAT.

Bottom line... where is he?

Somewhere safe.
Not good enough.

It is until after the operation.

Put your hands behind your back.

Dad?

Hey. Hey.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

I'm right here, baby.

Come on, let's go.

He's coming with us.

And leave his sick daughter
alone? No.

You said yourself,
IAB handles this stuff.

Let's let 'em.

What's up on your end?

Skeleton was identified
as Beverly Chase.

Disappeared in 2020,

three weeks after
calling 911

complaining about being harassed
on the street by Grady Simms.

Oh. You mean the same
Grady Simms who's been accused

of harassing women dozens
of times, including one woman

who he followed
all the way home

and banged on her door,
and was collared for stalking?

So he's a creep.

He's definitely
a little bit... off.

A horny man-child doesn't
get a pass with these women.

I agree, 100%.

And now he's killed
one of 'em?

Oh, except he didn't.

The mother,
Marie Simms.

Thank you, Hoffman.

Ms. Simms,
are you aware that your son

has a documented history
of harassing women?

Grady is... different.

He got hit by a car
when he was six.

And ever since,
he can't think right,

or remember things.

His father couldn't take it,
and...

or didn't love him, and left.

So you raised Grady
all by yourself?

A mother's job, right?

He said he's not allowed

to leave the house,
but he obviously does.

Yes, I-I work,
so sometimes he runs errands.

And I feel

for those women, I do.

But they just get scared

because of how he looks
and how he talks.

Has your son ever been violent
with you?

The world has hurt my son
over and over,

but he only has love
in his heart.

Right.

Ms. Simms, are you aware

your son rented a storage unit?

Uh, that's all either of us
will say without a lawyer.

Does a mother really know her
son better than everyone else?

Or can she not see what's
right in front of her face?

Eggs, Frank, all over my limo!

The egg on your face

for skipping Ben Kelly's funeral
is a whole lot worse.

It was a scheduling issue.
I had to make a choice.

Yeah, then choose something
other than a sharp stick

in the eye to the FDNY.

Veronica Radley started it.

No, you started it

by skipping that funeral
and going to that rally.

To handle a potentially
explosive situation.

And I meant started
this media circus.

You can't put that on me.

I'm putting it on both of you.

Serve this city,

not your egos.

How's my ego
getting served here?

The press is killing me.

Ben Kelly,
and Juana and Santi Marcos.

They were killed.

Same way I'll get killed when
the firefighters go on sick-out,

like Veronica announced
this morning.

The firefighters themselves
call those, she didn't.

You uniformed people.

You're all the same.

Family, brotherhood,
all in bed together.

And she has 11,000 troops
at her disposal.

I've got, what,
a dozen staffers?

You're not in a war, Peter.

Says the man tossing grenades at
me whenever he gets the chance.

Hell, she probably learned
how to do this watching you.

Can we get back
to a solution here?

The solution is,

your people start arresting
the flying monkeys

she has circling City Hall
day and night.

I have seen
only peaceful protests.

And when
it hits the fan tomorrow,

when firefighters call in sick?

What's my police commissioner
gonna do for me then?

Exactly.

2-9
George, 10-31 in progress.

Caller states perp
possibly armed with a handgun,

corner of Amsterdam and Bailey.

We should take their back.

And let the bad guy go when
he says his goldfish just died?

2-9 Charlie,
we got their back.

Whew. So glad we dodged
that sob story, huh?

Do you even have a heart?

Ray committed, like, six crimes

in 24 hours,
and you made us leave.

And IAB picked him up
20 minutes later.

And Nico?

He was in the back room.

It's catch-and-release
on both of 'em.

Great. So it's over now and back

to being none of our business.

This is Eddie Janko.

Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Slow down.

Oh, my God. We're on our way.

What's going on?
We got to go.

Come on. Lights and sirens!

- Thanks for coming.
- What's going on?

Is Kathryn okay?

Until Nico showed up.
He came in,

kissed her, then said he's out.

He's not gonna help her anymore.

Why not?

He didn't say. Just left.

So you called us?

I called her.

I don't why you care,

but I can see that you do,
so, please, just help me

find Nico before my daughter...
Ray.

He's not answering
his phone, but I know

a couple of places that he hangs
out. Let me get my jacket.

No, no, no, no, you stay here.

My daughter is going to die

unless...
We're going to find Nico.

What? We have a tour to finish.

We can't keep our eyes
peeled while we do?

You stay with her.
Text us some places

you think Nico might be.

Okay?

Come on, partner.
Clock's ticking.

Grady hasn't
paid for months.

Was about
to open it myself.

It's number 418,
down that hall.

Got it. Thank you.

Hey.

Hey.

Owner said Grady
rented this one out

about a year ago,

He gave me the key, told me to

knock myself out. Who knew

when we scratched
the surface with this guy

he'd have storage units
all around the city.

Apparently not his mother.
I found mine.

Mine, too.

Putting you on speaker.

Yeah, me, too.

Ready?

Ready.

All right. One,

two, three, go.

Good Lord.

Yeah, we got a serial killer.

And this father

isn't even a match
for his own daughter,

even with
the same genes?

No, it's more complicated
than that.

And you know this how,
Dr. Reagan?

I looked into it
in case

you ever
needed a kidney.

Aw.

Aw.
Me?

Yeah, you're not
getting any younger.

Hey, Sean, you keep that up,

you might not end up
getting any older.

Exactly.

And you don't have to worry
about my organs,

they're in fine
working order.

Yeah, Sean, if your dad needs
anything, it's a brain donor.

Hardy har har.

You see what you started?

Tell me about it.

And just so you know,
I'd give a kidney

to any of you
if you needed one.

Aw.
Me, too.

Me three.

Well, almost any of you.

Like I'd want yours.

What's this?

Yeah, why don't you want
to help Erin, Gramps?

Doesn't matter.

Well, Erin, why don't
you want to take his help?

It doesn't matter.

No, no,

you guys can't be on the outs

and then just say
it doesn't matter.

Watch us.
Watch us.

Okay, they are warring

over her Don Mathers trial

and Pop's testimony
for the defense.

How the hell do you know that?

I'm the police commissioner,
I know everything.

And that's all he'll say

so he doesn't get
my trial thrown out entirely.

What, you don't want my opinion?

Enough, Dad.

Hey, I did know Mathers
back in the day.

Francis, are you deaf?

Butt out.

Gramps,

he just doesn't want
to see you and Erin

not getting along.

Yeah, none of us do.

See, Pop? Just trying to help.

What, the way
you helped the mayor

in his spat with
the fire commissioner?

Fat lot of good that did,
from what I hear.

Well, uh,
the meatloaf's tasty, huh?

We're looking for Nico Hall.

We're told that he
hangs out here a lot.

Haven't seen him.

Me, neither.
Is he in trouble?

We're worried about

his well-being.

Like when you almost
got him killed

for putting up
a banner last week?

Yeah, I recognize you.

Well, then you know I'm the guy
who saved his ass when he fell.

Whatever.

Yo, either of you gonna
pickup your phones,

'cause they're
blowing up big-time.

Does anyone else know
where Nico might be?

Not me. I barely know the guy.

Have you checked with Kathryn?
They're a thing.

Well, Kathryn's sick.

And Nico's supposed to help her.

Which is totally
the kind of thing he'd do.

Nico's a sweetheart.

Or is that illegal now, too?

Thanks for your time.

Four missed
calls from Ray.

Two texts here.
"Where are you?"

"Have you found him yet?"
Dude, calm down, we're on it.

Would you be calm
if it was your kid?

Don't look now,
but Rudy,

the kid who said
he didn't know

who Nico was,

is suddenly on the move.

Well, let's see
where he's going.

Boss, one day?

How does that even count
as a sick-out?

I don't know,
ask the owners and tenants

of the six buildings
that were damaged because

firehouses were short-staffed

and response times
were from 1908.

I'm just
saying,

when the department
gets the blue flu,

it's like a month,
at least.

Well, her strategy
is working

with the press
and the public.

Even with the fires,
the FDNY support

is through the roof
and Chase is in the basement.

Couldn't happen to
a nicer guy.

Yeah, and
it wouldn't have happened

if I hadn't gotten involved.

What am I missing here?

You had
one short meeting with her.

How's this on you?

Boss, you're hard enough
on yourself

as it is...
This is on her.

Well, that was quick.

What was quick?

What?

My excellent source says

Chase has summoned Radley to
his office tomorrow to fire her.

Not even the courtesy of
a suggested resignation?

Nope, straight-up,
"Don't let the door hit you."

Old school,
my alma mater.

Any bets she shows up with

a couple hundred firefighters
to make a circus out of it?

What did you say to her?

To cool it.

That's it?

Pretty much.

But, uh, I think
it's what I didn't say that

might have got us here.

Well, how could it be
something you didn't say?

Well...

...basically, she asked me

if I would've just laid down
if the mayor had

skipped one of
our cop's funerals

for political reasons.

I didn't answer

'cause I couldn't lie.

Truth is...

...I probably would've done
what she did.

So, like, ten percent's
on you, boss.

Yeah.

So, that's Grady
two months ago

at the storage place
I went to.

And then,
three weeks later,

he dumps
Jill Joseph

at the storage place
you found her.

So, this footage,
plus the 911 call,

plus the stalking
conviction...

It should get us a search
warrant for Grady's house.

It'll get us a lot more
than a search warrant.

Should get us
a murder conviction.

Well, then we'll
wait for the forensics.

Grady's DNA or fingerprints
on the victim

should make it
a slam-dunk.

Well, check
the department email.

Ask and ye
shall receive.

Good.

I kind of feel bad for his mom.

You know, you raise a kid,

you send him out in the world,

thinking great things
are gonna happen,

and this
happens instead.

What is it?

It's not Grady's DNA
on our victim.

So, how do you
want to handle this?

Hey.

Wait, wait, wait!

Wait!

Open the door.
I didn't know
who you were!

Yes, you did.
That's why you ran.

Hey, hey, stop! Nico!
Damn it.

You just love running
from the cops, huh?

Man, what do you guys
want from me?

It's about what your
girlfriend needs.

I can't help
Kathryn anymore, man.

Do you love her?

Of course I do, but you guys
come and arrest me,

then Ray busts me out,

only for the other cops
to come arrest him?

Yo, the guy is
crazy, all right?

Well, he's worried
about his daughter.

So am I.

So then come with us.

I can't. It's-it's too nuts.

You know what, partner?
If the kid is scared,

let's just go.

Wait,

I never said I was scared.

Really?
Yeah.

I would be.

So,
seriously, man,

we'll void your arrest,

and I'm sure your
girlfriend can find

another donor in
the next couple hours.

Except...
I'm, like, her only match.

Yeah, but, you gonna
let them carve you up?

Come on,

no one will blame you
for backing out.

I sure won't.

No, I mean...

I-I did promise her, man.

Uh, yeah.

And we promised

her dad we'd find you.

But, hey, look,
we will just say you got away

and Kathryn and her father can
figure it out for themselves.

No skin off our teeth, right?

No...

I-I got to do it.

Really?

I have to help Kathryn, man.

Like...

I love her.

You want to drive, partner?

Lights
and sirens.

How's the carrot
cake, Henry?

Outrageous, as usual. Thanks.
Okay.

Henry Reagan.

What a surprise.

What are you doing here?

You kidding?

Best carrot cake in town.

Yeah, I won't argue that.

But come off it.

She send you?

No. No, I swear, she didn't.

Give her a message from me.

There's no way she can stop me
from testifying in her case.

It's not hers anymore.

Judge made her recuse herself.

Not that you would care.

Keep your nose out of this.

How? I work for her.

I mean our family.

You see, uh, that's the thing.

Erin is family to me.

And it's killing me seeing
how all of this is killing her.

She's got plenty of other cases.

Yeah, but first, she's got
to prep her new prosecutor

to do the one thing
that she never wanted to.

Which is?

Destroy her own grandfather's

credibility on the stand.

Or did you not realize

where all of this was headed?

We all have our role to play.

And yours is to break her heart.

Bravo.

You know what?

I lost my appetite.

Careful.

Could be a setup.

Ma'am?

Put the knife down.

On the counter,
right now. Put it down.

Put it down
and step away.

Where's Grady?

I sent him to the store.

Seem like you might have
been expecting us.

I knew you or someone like you
would find out one day.

Well, we wouldn't have if
you hadn't attacked that woman

in the subway
five years ago.

You got yourself
in the system.

She called my boy a freak

because he spilled his soda
on her.

He didn't mean to.

So you struck back,
just like you did

with Beverly Chase,

Maricella Vogel and Jill Joseph?

Grady was just trying
to be nice to them.

He wouldn't hurt a fly.
So, he was

just obeying you
when you sent him

to rent out
the storage units

and bring over duffel bags
and suitcases?

He's a good boy.

We look after each other.

Not anymore. Put your hands
behind your back, ma'am.

Okay. Please, uh,
can we just wait

until he gets home
so I can say goodbye?

Like those dead women never got
a chance to, to their parents?

You have the right
to remain silent.

Anything you do say
may be used against you

in a court of law.

Mr. Reagan,

you wore the uniform of
a New York City police officer

for more than four decades,
is that correct?

Yes, it is.

And it's well-known
that you served

as NYPD's police commissioner

after you retired
from the force.

City crooks certainly knew it.

Uh, during your time
as commissioner, was it

common practice to deploy
sustained neck compression,

also known as a "chokehold,"

to ensure compliance
from an unruly perpetrator?

When necessary, yes.

So, any officer who served under
you would have been trained

to use one safely?

That's correct.
So it's fair to say

that Mr. Mathers
would have been acting

under his trained instinct,

indeed almost
as second nature,

when he was forced
to use a chokehold

to defend himself from
his out-of-control neighbor?

Objection. Leading the witness.

Sustained. Mr. Ellis, move on.

Mr. Reagan, do you consider
yourself a good judge

of character of the brave men
and women who serve under you?

I certainly hope so.

And you personally knew

Don Mathers
when you served as PC?

Our paths crossed.

Using your own words,

would you please describe
Mr. Mathers' reputation

for peacefulness
in the community?

Bad, as in, arrogant,

ill-tempered,
disdain for everyone.

Like hell I am!

Hey.

Uh-huh. See? There he is.

Your Honor?
Oh, and,

the way our paths crossed

was me seeing reports
of him being disciplined

for using chokeholds on
completely compliant citizens.

Hell, it's cops like him

that had the chokehold banned.

Judge, I move that Mr. Reagan

be deemed a hostile witness.

Hostile to him? Hell yes.

Mathers is a menace,

then and now.

Smooth as silk.

Both of 'em.

Thank you so much.

Yeah. They'll be out
in a moment.

Okay.

And you two.

Glad it all worked out.

But you still got a lot
to answer for.

Yeah.

You're a good cop.

Now that she's safe,
I don't care what happens to me.

Now, what about Nico's charges?

We'll make sure
he has a soft landing.

But for now,
you stay in retirement.

Look at their
smiling faces.

Oh, my God.

Thank you.
Yes.

Thanks for
convincing Nico.

Just trying
to catch up to you.

What do you mean?

I finally saw past the perp
to the person.

Like you did
from the get-go.

And always do.

But if ever there was a moment
to put on TikTok...

You keep your signature
dance moves to yourself.

I mean,

come on. We got to get
a selfie at least.

You know I have a gun.

I'm not afraid to use it.

You could've at least told me.

What? And ruin the surprise?

It really was worth seeing the
surprise on Don Mathers' face.

Wiped the smirk right off, huh?

So...

Where is it?

Where is what?

The Scotch.

I figure you owe me one
for winning your case.

Pops, it's 11:00
in the morning.

I'm retired.
Well, I am not.

I'll stop by later, and
we can toast then, okay?

That's my girl.

Is this the police station?

Why am I here?

I want to see my mama!

I... I can't go in
to explain it to him again.

He's just gonna forget what I
tell him in ten minutes anyway.

Mama?

So what do we recommend
to the D.A. as charges?

Or do we?

He can't survive
at home without her.

Maybe we can
declare him an EDP,

get him evaluated
by Social Services.

Or Child Protective Services.

Even better.

Mama?

Mama, where are you?

Mama?

Where are you?

Maybe it's not my knees

that are getting too old
for this after all.

What? He brings you in
for backup?

Quite a show
you got going on out there.

Must be 300 firefighters

not doing their job.

I didn't ask them to come.

But you didn't order them
back to work, either.

Are you a part of this meeting?

Well...

...maybe an unwelcome part.

You know,

I kid myself
that I'm still a cop.

And I think you kid yourself
you're still a firefighter.

I don't kid myself. I am one.

Yeah, but you are much more
than that now.

You're the commish.

Yes, but I'm still one of them.

Then do your damn job.

Put the wet stuff
on the red stuff.

'Cause...

I can guarantee you one thing.

Your men and women
will not be stronger

or safer

with some committee scrambling
around to find your replacement.

Commissioner Radley.

I don't think he's expecting
you, Commissioner Reagan.

I'm a surprise.

You were not invited.

I'll only be a moment.

Your moment's not now.

Well, it kind of is, Mr. Mayor.

Please, sit down.

Okay.

Just... apologize.

To whom?

To him.

For your people egging his car,

for the circus outside,

for whatever else you got going
in this little rumble.

No.

And you...

When we put one of ours
in the ground,

you stand beside us and
get all teary with the bagpipes.

That's in your contract.

The hell it is.

Oh, it is.

You just haven't read it right.

Trust me.

So...

apologize to her.

No.

Yes.

Both of you.

Or what? We go without supper?

And there it is.

Thank you.

There what is?

Well, I've been sitting here

treating two very smart,
very accomplished adults

like a couple of bratty kids.

My mistake.

My sincerest apologies

to you both.

Wait. You're leaving?

I have made enough mess
of things already.

Yeah, you kind of have.

Please...

carry on.

I hope.

So?

So?
