Hey, what is Tim going to show us?

He'll kill me if I ruin the surprise.

It's not a waffle truck, I asked.

Oh.

Welcome.

I wanted you guys to be the first to see my new office.

Look, if I'm going to be more out on the street watch commander,

I need to take my office with me.

Is this the new Interceptor utility vehicle?

It is.

700 horsepower, 8,000-pound towing capacity,

level 4 ballistic door panels, dark mode,

and 270-degree monitoring to analyze moving objects

with potential threat levels.

He calls it a super shop.

That's a working title.

See, we got pads and bats,

infrared camera,

breaching tools.

I have two 32-inch screens.

Woo!

Wow.

Can I be watch commander?

No.

But you are riding with me today.

Yes.

Hey, show them droning.

Oh, yeah.

Check this out.

Isn't he cute?

Hey.

Really?

Yeah.

Look, super shop makes the Batmobile look like a kitty toy.

And I can control it all right here from my phone.

See?

Damn it.

Whoa, whoa.

Damn it.

He's playing Tim's Pump-Up Jack.

Down!

Stop, stop, stop, stop.

I'm gonna see you tonight.

I'm telling you now that we're gonna get down.

I'm gonna shake it down.

It's not gonna be as easy as you think based on this morning's demonstration. I'm well aware

It's not just that you're taking the watch commander duties on patrol

You're also exposing yourself to chain-of-command confusion when you land at a scene even if you stay in

the SUV super shop

It's a working thing

Morning

All right, listen up. We're gonna do things a little different today

There'll be two supervisors out on the street sergeant Chen and myself. I

Know I know no one wants the boss showing up to their calls second-guessing their every move. That is

not my intention

Okay, nothing has to change. I just put wheels on my office

While we work out the details officer Nolan will be riding with me to help facilitate the transition any questions

Can I pick the playlist?

Dumb question all right second order of business officer Juarez will be on temporary duty assignment with the detectives bureau

Did you choose your focus? Yes?

missing persons

You sure about that? Yeah

Your call all right. I have some updates from the night shift missing person is really that bad

Detective Desmond has a reputation like a Harper reputation no

Opposite

Last day at the D.A.'s office excited

I'm relieved when the D.A. had one foot in retirement now that Vivian's D.A. elect

She's gonna have free reign

None of that will matter once you quit and open a private practice in Malibu with a view of the

ocean

With that commute you'd never see me again. Well in my dream

I also work in Malibu of a robot helicopter that flies the kids to school and a pony

I'll start to kill another one of your dreams but I already reached out to my old landlord and

The only view from that office is the Ethiopian place on the first floor. Oh before you go make sure

you pass off my cases to the right

Prosecutors Daniels doesn't touch homicide. Give mine to Cosgrove. He is solid. That might be an issue

Cosgrove just quit. I gotta go. Good luck

Wesley so good to see you. Yeah, right

I'm serious. No hard feelings on my end. Yeah, because you destroyed me. Well, exactly

I made good on the promise I made you when you threw your hat in the ring. It's nothing personal

In fact, I agree with you on a lot of the issues and I know that together we can take

the D.A.'s office in a positive direction

You're not gonna fall for that are you? No, I was about to hand in my resignation letter

Well, she won't accept it with Cosgrove Garcia and Martin already out

She can't afford to lose anyone else Martin quit keyed her car on the way out a hero to us

all

Come on

Hey, sorry about the election that should have been me facing Vivian you were handed a poison chalice. I drank

from it willingly

How's Logan? He's good. You know, he just got another chip. He's been clean now almost four months. That's great

What about you you into the Rothwell and Pierce thing? No, I'm

I'm gonna stay here and you should too. Mm-hmm. Come on Wes. You join this place to change the

culture from within to ensure that

Justice not punishment was our paramount virtue. Remember? It's a very inspirational message

They just lost by 23 points

Look Vivian ran on tough on crime. She's gonna deliver. Yeah, which is why the city needs people like us

here now more than ever

Look, we still can make a difference

Sean you're here already. Let's work together one last time if at the end of the day. You still want

to quit. I won't stand anyway

This job is where ambition goes to die

Wait, what missing persons. It's not a real department. It's a halfway house for cases on the way to real

departments

That's a lot of reports for a fake department

90% of these cases will solve themselves

Teenager just needed to blow off steam a wife went on a bender came home when she sobered up kid

fell asleep playing hide-and-seek

I've been on patrol for three years. I know most missing persons reports go nowhere, but

There are people in the stack who are victims of real crimes crimes with their own departments like trafficking or

homicide

Sorry to interrupt

Homicide once in the graph case

Fisherman found the body looks like murder rest in peace

Okay, obviously you know the job way better than I do but

It wouldn't hurt to look through the case file see if there's anyone we can help

Knock yourself out

This thing drives like a dream in these seats

Ten minutes in a regular shop my ass is barking. Yeah, but don't get used to it. You're just here

while I work out the kinks

Once Penn is back from training you're back in the shop, and I'm on my own

I have a four-fifteen at fifth and Western RP reports to shirtless men circling each other

Seven at 100 two blocks away shows responding you sure sounds like your basic alcohol-fueled slugfest. Yeah, I have

to test response times and even the most basic of calls

Captain's calling Bradford can you hold yeah, I'll hold

I'll be right there I got this

LAPD you guys break it up

Sorry, he was just called into a meeting. Can you hold just a minute longer? No, I'm at

Sorry to keep you waiting no problem sir

We're getting a lot of complaints about vagrants in stoner park

I've got to say renaming it would be a strong start. It's important that people feel safe in public place

couldn't agree more

I'll have additional units in the area starting today

Okay, is that it?

One more thing just want to say your tireless commitment to justice and the people. Thank you, sir

You're still here and I think I found a workable case Sadie Bell 30th was reported missing last week

But according to her best friend Joe Sadie never misses visitation with her kid on the first Tuesday of every

month

Walk with me

Reporting party's address

5206 Street, it's a homeless shelter. Joe is unhoused meaning Sadie's unhoused not the most reliable bunch on the other

hand sir

Unhoused women are highly vulnerable to physical and sexual assaults true

And they're also more likely to be substance abusers who miss things like supervised child visitations

I know well, I think it's worth investigating. So what's our first step?

Why are you so gung-ho officer Morris? And don't just say the indefatigability of youth

My sister was abducted when I was a child sir. I

Lived the fear of not knowing where a loved one is

Understandable

And quite noble, but I would caution you that the thousand files in my office

Are not an unending stack of potential happy endings for the subset that are not just runaways or miscommunications

The endings are mostly heartbreaking

I haven't had a chance to review the reports, but it's at the top of my list. Okay, I appreciate

the reminder

How did gray make it look so easy all the scowl helped yeah

You don't want to bother that face with anything less than an absolute emergency. My scowl is legend. It was

but then lucy moved it

You know what I take it back

Hey dash everything all right hey, so lesson for the future if somebody asks you if you want to see

a dead body say no

Dash are you standing over a dead body?

Yep

It's been here for at least a day

I don't know how long for sure until tID gets here and we turn him over kenneth morris k-dog

for real

uh

Kenny's my english teacher was my english teacher okay, so uh

Who found the body a Dakota we're in fourth period together, but I didn't think it was real

She's always gossiping about something last week

She told me she was quitting school because she landed some influencer brand deal with pop tarts

Turns out. It was just a regional campaign. No offense. It just doesn't seem like uh coastwood is

Your scene. Oh, it's not

But my mom said I needed a strong senior year in order to get into a good college

So she landed an office job here that way I get a major break on tuition dad not in the

picture

No, he kind of lurks in the background like the babadook specializing in bad decisions and hot cougars, right

Uh, so you said Dakota found the body original

Uh, no Dakota said cj told her about it who heard about it from ilia and autumn who might have

heard about it from somebody else

So, how many teenagers came out to the woods saw a dead body and did nothing about it except tell

their friends unknown

But I bet they all took selfies with it

I'm starving

Can we order green juice or something your intermittent fest doesn't end until one we can talk after that

No one is asking you to spy on your friends now

We have hidden surveillance set up to capture candid conversations tight. Oh, but they're not my friends. Oh

How's my hair?

Fine. Who were you trying to impress? No one autumn

She's pretty

It's like saying that the hanging gardens of babylon were cool instead of a feat of unparalleled engineering that redefined

elegance and beauty in the ancient world

But i'm a little biased clearly

She nice

Hey, dash, do you want to come to my premiere tonight?

Uh, yeah, totally. I would love to

No, wait, my publicist said we already did our charity work for the year. So you're out of luck. Sorry

What are you premiering the new laporte film it's already getting oscar buzz

Oh, who do you play in the movie young addict number two no lines, but my featured reactions

Really carry the film. Oh, by the way, I have a heart out at three glam squads coming to my

house

Well, we'll try to get you out in time for the full face shellacking. Do you have a parent or

guardian with you?

Oh

No, thank you. I was legally emancipated when I was 13 so I could um work adult hours on set

I don't need them here great. Let's interview you first

Please tell me jack won't be going there. It's not definite, but jack's preschool is the feeder school for coastwood

It would be an easy transition

Logistically maybe but emotionally won't you die a little?

Yes, but la elementary schools are more competitive than stamford and having an easy path would save hundreds of hours

of stress

Yeah, but then he'd be going to school with kids like these that's where it falls apart and what can

you tell me about morris?

Kenny was such a sweetie even when I had to miss a lot of class last year. He was so

chill about it

Why did you have to miss school? I was doing this indie project

We're supposed to premiere at sundance, but then the director had all these like

Harassment allegations or whatever and got basically blackballed and now my career has to suffer

Like did kenneth have any disagreements with other teachers faculty? No, I really can't imagine anyone wanting to hurt ken

ken

It wasn't traditionally attractive sure, but that's no reason to be murdered

right?

Can I vape in here? I have a note from my therapist. He does. I have it right here. No

Who first told you about the body in the woods? It was sushi tuesday, so I was pretty laser focused

on whether I wanted ahi or uni

I think I ended up getting both let's focus here

Where did you hear about the body? Well, I remember autumn mentioning something earlier in the day when she was

talking to ilia

But ilia said he had heard it from zoe

I guess she originally saw something about it in a dm from lynette when she was going through cj's phone

And given what happened on the school trip last year. It is super sketchy that he was damming lynette

Backup where do we think the rumor started nowhere like everywhere how are we further from figuring this out than

when we started?

I call for backup. Hi again. Thank god normal teenager. No offense. It's just your

Classmates tend to be overwhelmed by their own champagne problems. I get it

My dysfunction is a little bit more proletariat. Yes, that's one way to put it

Yeah, I don't really hang out with them much outside of school

And that's not just because I didn't make forbes 20 under 20, but it's definitely a factor

Well, we're not done with the interviews yet

But so far no one we have talked to has said they're the one who started the rumor

They all claim to have heard it from someone else right so reese heard about it from cj who heard

about it from zoe

Who saw it in a dm from you said that reese heard about it from cj. That's what she told

us

That doesn't make any sense

They got in a huge fight last week about you know whether or not

Sending nudes to other people counts as cheating they haven't spoken to each other since and word in the halls

is that zoe and cj are the new

It couple oh my god

Yes, I was totally picking up on that vibe, but I saw that zoe wasn't following cj on instagram

So I put it from my head, but when I double back to check it looks like she does follow

him

But only with her with her finsta. Yeah

Okay, this is this is actually all starting to make sense it is

Um, so linna and emma they went to the bathroom to do a fit check for their joint instagram account

and linette said that

She hears somebody crying in one of the stalls and she says that it's reese because she recognizes her leather

tabbies

Travis tells paul in the parking lot that he heard about a dead body from some bitch in first period

and

And who does he have first period with reese and dash heard about the body from dakota who is reese's

second best friend

But she has been fighting for that number one spot

So I mean she would do anything that reese says

So if reese told dakota to lie about where she heard about the body

This is all coming back to reese

Okay, so is reese witness zero or is she the killer?

Sadie

Yeah

Okay

You know that night sadie went missing it was pouring rain and the shelter was full so i'm thinking

She crawled in here to stay dry and got trapped

A couple of months ago. I found a bunch of guys living it up in an access tunnel electricity wi

-fi the whole thing

They had the right idea

But you also have electricity and wi-fi

Yeah, but i have to pay for it

You know one of those gays if they locked behind her she could be trapped or too injured to crawl

out

Yeah, but at this point she's probably dead from dehydration

Wait, what?

Sadie

If you can hear me make a sound

Desmond where are you i'm inside a service tunnel looking for sadie

I called the shelter. She showed up this morning. You're kidding. Well, why didn't they call us?

They never do so she was fine this whole time yeah, it turns out that her friend had the visitation

date wrong

But hey cheer up at least you only wasted your own time

I am so sorry

Oh, hey selena

Hey, I heard about the missing person who wasn't missing already. I just got back smitty was with you, right?

Oh, i'm gonna have a lot of favors after dragging the cavalry through the sewers

Okay, first of all do not refer to any group that includes smitty as the cavalry and second

Those guys will forgive you or you know somebody else will screw up way worse and then they'll be focused

on that

Well, i'm kidding. Hey, one misstep does not change the fact that your instincts here are

Legendary so just take a second to wallow in this but then get cleaned up and get back out there.

Yeah

Yeah

Oh, you're too kind

Yes, i'm really looking forward to working with you as well madam mayor. Okay. Bye-bye

Sorry been so busy

Before I make the big move upstairs

I wanted to get our house in order a little bit clear the deck so we have 27 felony arrests

Waiting prosecution. We just do not have the manpower and take them all to trial. Why did you lose some

ada's or something?

There's been turnover. Yes, so i've got plea deals approved for all these cases and I need you both to

get them signed asap murder, too

This guy robbed a convenience store and the clerk had a heart attack that is felony manslaughter

At best and a teen who pegged his principal with a football is assault with a deadly weapon did the

da sign off on these

I pointed to the significant mandate voters handed me and he agreed well their lawyers are not going to agree

to these terms

Make them agree

Apple pruitt she lives in my building her mother reported her missing a month ago when she didn't return from

coachella

Every year we get a spike in imports after chella. This is one time

This guy disassociated so hard. He reported himself missing. No, but this one's weird

Apple has a strong social media presence, but didn't post anything about what happened this year

There was a massive dust storm. They canceled day two at the sahara tent. I mean everyone was posting about

it

It's not exactly a smoking gun

Okay, listen, I know how this sounds but something is telling me to investigate

I

See what's going on you said she lives in your building mm-hmm classic move

You take a case near your house so you can investigate it from your living room

When the shift ends, you're just a few steps from your futon. I'm not trying to go home early

That's too bad. I thought you were finally catching on

There's no obvious connection between reese and mr morris he did tutor her every week, but he tutored a lot

of the kids

Yeah, and his venmo transactions show that he was pulling down six figures on top of his salary

Why is tutoring in quotes and one of the parents added a winky face emoji?

Every student who paid for tutoring got a name the only kid who was struggling was dash

Yeah, his mom was barely scraping tuition together. They couldn't afford anything extra. Okay, so

The parents are paying for grades so the kids get into a better college, but I mean

Why kill him maybe he couldn't deliver if I spend that kind of money and my kid didn't get into

their dream school?

I'd be pissed

Arise have you decided what college you're going to um, I think I may be taking a gap year

From your social media accounts. It seems like you're all about yale

It's kind of my mom's thing, but you did apply

Yeah, I applied to lots of places, but I didn't get in so

Was your mom upset?

Yeah, I guess

Reese we know it was you who started the rumor

No, I heard it from cj. We know that's not true

But you did tell dakota and travis and lynette

You know that tells me

You wanted someone to know you wanted the police to know but you just didn't want to be the one

to call

It didn't seem right that he was just lying out there. How do you know he'd been killed?

I

I stayed late on tuesday. My mom wanted to talk to mr. Morris. She was so angry about yale

She was yelling at him and he wanted to talk somewhere private. So they went out back behind

the school

I waited and waited and finally my mom came back

Just her not him

And her hands were

She wouldn't talk about it, but I I knew she did something

I didn't want any of this to happen. I don't even care about college

Well at least I know why I was failing the class your mom wasn't bribing the teacher yeah then I

never did any homework

I'll listen your mom is stuck at school things are about as hectic over there as you can imagine so

your dad's gonna come take you home

Is that right? Yeah, it's fine. He

Shows up every six to eight months to remind everybody where my mom got sole custody

I'm telling you you cannot lose you would be a fool not to invest hit me up on socials. I

will tell you more about it. Okay. Hey, this is my guy

How you doing? I still haven't had that grocery yet, huh? I'm pacing myself. Hey, sorry. I haven't been around

much been

Working crazy hours. Um, but good news tiger bear has one more investor signed on with a non-binding verbal

agreement tiger bear

It's a soup. It's a breakfast soup. Dash. Come on. No, that was the last one

Tiger bear whiskey tequila is the whiskey list startup. It's gonna be huge

You should get in on the ground floor champ. I'm telling you an investment of 10 grand will triple by

the end of the year guarantee

You do know your son found one of his teachers dead behind the school gym today. Damn it

Sorry, sorry, uh, okay, uh, keep going. Uh, so dash was working out. Just take me home

We'll have to excavate the passenger seat for parking tickets again, or he's joking. I am a model citizen. Don't

say that

Dash

I'm around if you need me

So we gotta stop by my place first, but we'll make it a pro app, you know, or some za

we'll watch last week's ufc

That problem

Just the universal unfairness of the world nothing actionable

Thanks for coming in this is a plea deal and before you ask it's the best deal your client's gonna

get I know murder two

It seems excessive. I mean all you did was rob a convenience store

It wasn't your fault that the clerk had a heart attack

The man had end stage heart disease now a jury could see that as extenuating circumstances

I mean if the jury was blind

Maybe they'd see that as a gang tattoo, but I don't have to risk that possibility if you just say

yes to the plea

I mean who cares? There's no precedent for a felony prosecution this severe

So what if our only witness has been charged with perjury and false accusations and two other cases?

I mean if you think you could do better at trial you just push that plea deal right back at

me

You know where near too loud I'm officer quad is with LAPD. Yeah, I'm following your roommate apple pruitt's case

Yeah, she hasn't come home, right? No, no, I'm I'm we're sick

Do you mind if I come inside sure? Yeah, of course

I've actually been boxing up apple's things all day. It's officially 30 days tomorrow

I just I need someone else in here to help me with this

Crazy rent not that apple is great about paying

She doesn't believe in money or monogamy or

Cleaning she sounds like a lot. Oh, I mean don't get me wrong. She was

Is um one of my favorite people just not the greatest at cohabitation, right?

And the last time you saw her was right before she left for coachella

She left going even though she had her issues before I mean bad drugs and aggressive guys. She

Definitely had some scares. And you think that's what happened to her. I I don't know. Um

I mean

I'm just trying to be helpful, but I'm desperate for you to find her

Do you mind if I take a look at her bedroom? Yeah, no problem. It's uh, it's right over there

I

I

I

I

This is officer Juarez badge number five three three nine seven

I'm code four with a possible two four five suspect also suspected of an 187 sent backup

I need an r-a-t-i-d to my location

You don't understand she was the worst roommate ever

I'm pretty sure you're the worst roommate ever

So this is just temporary

But the money train is chugging into the station

Then I'm gonna be playing the how many square feet is too many square feet game

Want some? Uh, no, thanks. I just shotgun some gasoline

Oh god, I had some serious stuff

Hey, um, so this fancy private school of yours where a teacher was just murdered

Really? How have you not been paying attention?

Never mind. Of course you haven't

All I'm saying is you're in the perfect spot to help your dear old dad raise some cash money capital

I'm having supply issues in the czech republic

But they specialize in neither whiskey nor chicken

Okay, that is besides the point anyways

You'll be helping out the family if I can get you to make a few introductions

If I say I'll think about it, will you take me home?

Come on, what's the rush? Party's just getting started

Gus, I know you're in there. Open the damn door

We're gonna go out the window

No, we're not

I can hear you in there. Open the door or we kick it in

Uh, okay, um, so a few of my friends are here

Um, you gotta go hide

Why would I hide from your friends? Just go

Go

And don't come out

No matter what

Dash?

I think I might be in some trouble

Fellas

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, I'm sorry about the confusion. Your money, it's being transferred. It's just the act,

you know, it takes a few days, so

Okay, where are you?

Uh, the closet, dad's apartment, they're beating him up

I can get your money just one more day, like two times

All right, stay hidden until we get there

I can't

They'll kill him, I have to do something

No, Dash, Dash, no

I don't know how you can get your money

What the hell is this?

It's, uh, my neighbor, he waters my plants

You are such a liar

Although lying to protect your kid is almost noble

Be ashamed if I had to break all his teeth, stump both his ends in a suit

Pass

And pass

How about we go with my plan instead

Rob a bunch of rich kids that go to my school, who wants a rolex

You better not be lying, kid

Your dad is out of free passes

Let's go

Dash would never knowingly put someone in danger

So we track down whether any school families are out of town

The Laporte premiere

He's a pretentious auteur filmmaker

His new movie launches tonight

Autumn Harrington is in it

That's the girl that Dash has a crush on

Her address is in the system

Damn, who is this chick?

Autumn?

She's an up and coming it girl

Her new project's getting Oscar buzz

Yeah

Well, let's hope she get paid in diamond bracelets

You know, stuff that's easy to pawn

Otherwise

You and your dad gonna find out what the landfill tastes like

Out

Stay with Gus until I give you the signal

All right

Man, for what it's worth

Your dad is the biggest train wreck I ever met

My old man, he in prison

Trying to steal a FedEx plane with a tow truck

Well, if you're the ghost of my future self

I might just have to Virginia Woolf it

I don't know what that mean

She was arguably the most influential writer of the 20th century

Ended it all by walking into a river with rocks in her pockets

Nobody likes a comedian, kid

I had to argue but the gun gives you the last word

Hey, if this a setup, I'm killing everybody

Got it?

Yes, sir

You're not my agadashi tofu

You're not supposed to be here

Well, you cut me out of the movies

I wasn't on the list

Do you know how mortifying that

Who the hell are you?

Hey, who else in the house?

Nobody

My parents are in Monaco

All right

Get over here

I don't want to

No problem

I'll just shoot you

Go dance

What? Why?

Whoa

It's even bigger on the inside

See, this is the kind of place I'm gonna get when I get paid

Hey man, shut up

Stay down here with the idiot, all right?

Steal anything that's shiny

Now take me to your parents room

And they better have a boatload of watches and jewelry

Hey, hey

Whoa, whoa

Those whiskey bottles worth like 500 each

I'm just gonna grab a couple

Show me

What about this?

The Merlot, really?

No, dude, those two are worth way more

All right, all right

Where's the jewelry?

Closet

All right

Hey, hey

Stay here

I can't believe you brought them to my house

I panicked, okay?

They were gonna kill my dad

And besides, you weren't supposed to be here

I would never knowingly put you in danger

Because you have the odds for me

I have romantic intentions, yeah

But clearly you don't share them

So

I mean, it's not like you're not cute

You're just

Poor?

Exactly

What are you doing?

Looking for a gun

Oh, that's not a gun

Oh

Oh, your parents are freaky

What the hell are you doing?

Get away from there

Oh, no, sorry

Sorry

I'm never gonna be able to look my parents in the eye again

Me neither

Hey, Andre wouldn't really hurt my kid, right?

This is a scare tactic

I mean, I know I'm not a great dad

But I try, you know?

When it's convenient for me

Like, I want to be better

Like, I really do

I think about it all the time

Well, not all the time

It's not the heart of the problem, really

I just gotta be better

The kid deserves a role model

Not the flamin' hot mess I am on a daily basis

Feels really good to come clean about this, you know?

It's kind of cathartic

Hey, ah!

When the hell did you get here?

Where's Dash?

Let's go

No, she's staying here

She hasn't seen your face

So you're in the clear

Just, just, you can do whatever you want to be

Just let her go

Hey man, you got balls, kid

Unlike your father

But she cannot stay here, alright?

Let's go

There's a gold bar in that bedside table

Yeah, right

I'm serious

But if you want to leave it, like

Stay right here

Get back

Drop it

Come on, get up

Hey, you okay?

Physically

Here, give me this

Come here

Ow, thanks

And thanks for trying to save me

Yeah, anytime

Oh, thank god

Although, I knew it was all gonna be alright

Hey, um, maybe we don't tell your mom about this

You know, we just keep it a bro thing

Stop!

Just stop

Everything that you do

Everything that you say

Is just so selfish

So toxic

You haven't done one fatherly thing for me in my entire life

All you care about is yourself

And I'm just sick of it

I'm done with you

Forever

What?

So, we met with all 27 defendants

It's the craziest thing

We tried our hardest

None of them would accept the plea deal

Not a one

Well, I hope you've kept your weekends clear

Because now you've got 27 trials you're gonna need to prepare for

About that

I quit

And I'd say best of luck

But I hope you fail

Spectacularly

Sorry, Sean, I just can't

No, no worries

I can't either

I quit too

Ah

Hey, what do you think of the law firm of Del Monte and Evers?

Well, you haven't worked a day in your life as a defense attorney

Evers and Del Monte

Turn to the right

Way ahead of you

Not my first radio

Now we just need your clothes for evidence

And then, uh, for you to go

After everything that happened?

The DA may still press charges

But it was pretty clear you were under duress

I really wanted this time to be different

I was gonna buy a dash of car

With the tiger bear money

I looked to make up for lost time, you know

But he's right

I screw everything up

He's better off without me

Probably

I've had some experience with bad fathers

And the love the sons feel for them

No matter how many times they get their hearts broken

And unless you're willing to change

And I mean

Really

Change

Best thing you can do for Dash is just

Leave him the hell alone

What were you thinking?

I'm fine

Thanks for asking

Do you know how close you were to becoming a missing person yourself?

If she would have succeeded in killing you, how would I have known?

First thing she'd do is destroy your phone

So when I pulled to your last known location, it would be your building

So to me and the world, you were home and then you vanished

Well, I see that now

It's just I figured I'd stop by and ask a few questions

We have protocols for a reason

Yes, sir

I let my best intentions obscure my judgment

Proving I still have a lot to learn about this job

But if I can be so bold as to ask a favor

You can ask

I remain undaunted

So if a file comes across your desk that gives you a feeling, call me

I am happy to run down any lead I can for you, free of charge

Deal

And for what it's worth

I'm glad you're okay

Your dad's gone and your mom's on her way

Cool

You wanna talk about anything?

Uh, not really

I think I'm a little talked out for once

Understood

You're at the risk of sounding overly earnest

You're a very special young man

Despite or maybe even because of what your father's put you through

Now I know you know that you're not him in any

Any way, shape, or form

But I also know that family pain is emotional and not intellectual

I'm just trying to say, uh

If you ever need a reminder of this conversation

You have my number

Thanks

And just to be clear, you're saying I can call you every morning at the crack of dawn just to

tell me I'm awesome?

No

Every other morning

Twice a week final offer

I can live with that

If you can live with unlimited text dms and social media shoutouts

Just the calls

Okay

Smart man

Damn it

Damn it
