Hard to say goodbye.

So much of my life happened here.

Elbow gears with Tamara.

The Jackson.

Now you.

I feel like every important thing in my adult life happened in here.

But now you're emerging from this chrysalis and becoming a beautiful

butterfly.

Too much?

No, it's perfect. You're perfect.

Sorry, am I early? No, no, we're just getting a little start.

All right, come on in.

Hey, well, you can put some of your stuff in my room for now. Oh, that's all

it has.

What? Are you kidding?

No. Our life is all about minimalism.

But if you have anything you want to leave behind, do it free.

You know, I mean, Tim has a bed. Do you really need to bring yours?

What?

Could you actually just put that back? Thank you.

You are welcome to come visit anytime you want. Thank you. Yes. Take care of

his place for me.

This is so gross. I don't even want to put this on my chair.

I'm calling it.

There's not enough dry cleaning in the world.

Why did that idiot have to throw his gun in the sewer?

I know. If this murder wasn't bad enough, he had to go and ruin my

favorite booth.

What's that smell?

That is the sweet aroma of a closed case.

It smells like industrial waste.

You know, sometimes I wonder what I'm still doing here. I'm rich, you know.

Like, really rich.

I don't need any of this.

What are you going to do, huh?

Retire, have lunch at the country club every day?

I'd also do Pilates and read books and go shopping and travel. Being the boss

isn't just about getting the work done.

You've got to play a smart political game.

I know. I've filled in for you before.

A day here or there is not the same.

Tim, you are the watch commander now. No acting, no interim.

You're him.

Now, problem solving is never ending.

Memos pile up fast.

If you don't have a system, you'll fall behind.

Understood. Um, yeah, that's it. Any questions?

No, I'm good. All right.

That's my desk.

Right.

Sorry, it's going to take some getting used to.

Um, so if you need anything... I know where the task force office is.

Good luck.

I don't want to make you late for a roll call, but girlfriend Lucy has a couple

of things she'd like to say to you before you start at your shift. So, good

luck.

You've earned this, and you've got this.

Girlfriend Lucy?

Yeah. Well, technically, I guess it's live-in girlfriend Lucy now.

Technically, I think you have to be fully on back before we can call you

that.

But that's not the point. Either way, LIGF Lucy is officially clocking out,

and Sergeant Chen is taking over.

This is weird. Maybe. But our jobs are too important to let our relationship

interfere. We really need to be professional.

Okay. Well, I appreciate L-I-G-F. Luthier, kind word.

I will tell her if I see her.

Tell her.

Okay.

Birthday as roving supervisor.

Nervous? Oh, no. Nothing could be more challenging than working with the Dream

Team, so... At least on night shift, your boyfriend wasn't a watch commander.

Wow. I do have a good plan for dealing with that, though. It's strict

compartmentalization.

Sounds unhealthy.

What? No, I think it's good.

Clear boundaries and no confusion.

See you at roll call.

So, any advice for dealing with your O.T.O.? Nolan's tricky.

He seems like the nicest person in the world, but he can lay down the law.

Don't take him for granted.

Understood. Hey. Hey. Thank you. It is so weird seeing Tim in Gray's office. It

feels like everything's changing all at once.

Tim's the new Gray. I'm the new Tim.

Miles is the new Selena.

So who am I?

You're just Nolan.

Thank you.

Okay, knock it off.

We have a number of changes today.

First, Nolan will take over training Officer Penn. Finally got him

straightened out, so try not to mess it up. I'll do my best. But don't do your

best. Do my best.

Second, Sergeant Chen is taking over as roving supervisor.

And finally, in T-minus 36 hours, the President of the United States arrives

in Los Angeles.

I think I'm coming down with something.

Probably just an allergy.

It is an honor to host the president in our fair city, and we will ensure that

his visit is safe and productive.

A Secret Service advance team lands shortly, and they'll be operating out of

our station for the next 48 hours.

Let's show them how real law enforcement is done.

Copy? Copy. Yes, sir. Dismissed.

Sergeant Shen, a minute?

Yep.

Okay, this right here, this is the current department bible on presidential

business. Oh, so don't lose it? Don't even joke about losing it.

Okay.

Oh, wow.

That's really intricate.

Yeah, apparently this president guy is pretty important.

Look, I've been coordinated with the Secret Service for the last month. The

only thing left to lock down is the motorcade route.

And... Since you're a watch commander, now it falls to me. Right, okay.

Correct. This is not as simple as getting the president from point A to

point B. The route needs to comply with all Secret Service protocols.

My recent proposal is in there. We're just waiting for sign-off on a few

items. Am I locked into your plan?

No, if you think you can do better, feel free. But it would be a heavy lift on

your first day. And the rethink can't get in the way of your other duties.

So if you were me, stick to the current plan. Got it.

Okay, so if I do lose it... Oh, I'm choking.

Gray would have thought that was funny. Doubt it.

Jen, um... Roll call was okay, right?

Speaking as Sergeant Shem.

Because Lucy has left the building, yes, I remember.

You were maybe, like, a tad too gruff. They're grown-ups. I'm not going to

coddle them. No, I totally agree. It's just, you know, Gray would always end on

a good note. Be safe out there. Okay, well, that was his thing. You know, I

need to find my own style.

I know.

And you will.

Every T.O. rookie relationship is unique. As long as it's based in

respect, we shouldn't have any problems.

So, what is next in your rookbook checklist?

Cultivating and informing.

Okay, but shouldn't that wait until after the circus comes to town tomorrow?

Every day of the circus in Los Angeles, part of your training is going to be

multitasking. I assume you've already started cultivating a list of potential

C.I.s? Oh, yes, sir.

My top candidate is a high-end sex worker I helped out a few weeks back.

Good instincts, but I wouldn't start with her.

A D.I. cop relationship is complicated on a good day without the emotional

complexities that her profession might bring.

All right. What about Dave Cotton?

His garage does a lot of work on cars, but it's on the front. How long has he

been sober?

A couple months.

Not nearly long enough.

All right.

Pass Andy.

Pass Andy.

Now, he has good connections.

He's not that bright.

I'm not looking for a financial advisor.

Most criminals are dumb. Right, but the CIA needs to be smart enough to be able

to maintain a lie.

Yeah, I know that. I've recruited informants before back in Texas.

Okay, it's your call. I'm only here for guidance. If you think Fast Andy is your

guy, let's go recruit him and see how that goes.

I'm not buying it. Kids in self-care all day, every day?

I think you'd get bored.

So I'll start a business.

Hire my BFF to run it with me.

What kind of it?

Harper. Lopez.

Bradford. Good to see you. All right, Agent Butler, this is Sergeant Chen.

She's taking over my whole position.

Detectives Harper and Lopez have volunteered to help you run down

threats. I don't remember volunteering.

Me neither.

This is my right hand.

Agent Kevin Kelvin. I'm sorry.

Kevin...

Kevin Kelvin?

My parents are fans of alliteration. Who isn't? Here's the watch list.

As you know, most of them are cranks. But with POTUS landing tomorrow, we need

to make sure that there's no signs of escalation.

Major life events, weapon purchases.

I know what escalation looks like.

Of course you do.

My apologies.

You want us to start at the top of the list?

No. They're in order of a death threat. We'll take the most worrying. Why don't

you start around... Oney?

Sure thing.

Start at 20?

You might as well have just said, waste your entire day talking to mouth

breathers. What I'm saying, if we worked for ourselves, we wouldn't have to jump

through anybody else's hoops. Doing what?

Well... Alright, so we have narrowed it down to private investigation firm or

spotting door. Two solid choices, and we've only been thinking on it for three

wasted time door knocks.

Who's lucky number four?

Jerry Hudson, 34, gun enthusiast, posts under the username Six Tempered

Tyrannist 414, and threats to the president are varied and many.

Mr. Hudson, LAPD, we have a few questions for you.

Angela.

Impressive and terrifying.

Everything's labeled.

Makes it easy to see what's missing. What is most troubling is sniper riffle.

I think it means rifle.

I think your spelling is the least of our problems.

Now, it is important that you be completely clear with your CI.

That's a delicate balance.

You want to motivate your CIA to cooperate, but at the same time, you

can't keep them out of jail. You can't even promise to be lenient.

I'm out to D.A.

Got it.

Andy, good to see you.

Thanks for taking the time. No problem. I got to make this quick, though,

because my boss, he's all over me about that business I have with the money. I

mean, how am I supposed to know Obama's not on the 100?

Those fakes can be tricky.

Exactly.

So, what's up? I have a business proposition.

You've got connections on your side of the law. I've got connections on my side

of the law.

What do you say we work together?

You want me to snitch?

Nah, you don't have to tell me anything you don't want to. But if you hear

something you want to pass along, hit me up. How much does it work to you? Well,

that's not focused on the money.

So nothing?

Look, LAPD's budget is limited.

But the real benefit is our relationship.

You help me, I help you.

Help me how?

We can discuss that.

So, let's discuss it now.

Copy. Calling shortly.

Look, your murder's the one I can't help you, right? What? Am I a little

offensive? I have some leeway.

Okay. I can see the value in that.

Okay. All right.

We got to go.

Here's my card.

The cell is on there.

Thanks, man.

Hey, you want a pop for your lead?

I'm just hoping a bottle of vodka. We don't drink on the job.

Yeah, me neither.

Yeah.

What? Nothing.

You happy with how that went? Yes, sir.

Now it's up to Andy.

How am I supposed to make sure POTUS is never ten minutes away from a hospital?

7 Adam 300, requesting supervisor on Blix and Hortense.

Priority at great.

7 Adam 300 responding.

Must be bad if the watch commander came out. Not good. Heavily armed suspect on

the Secret Service watch list is in the wind. What exactly is this guy's history

with the president?

Cyber threat team flagged Hudson a year ago. He was posting about revolution,

rooting out to any all-standard fare.

About six months ago, he started demanding a meeting with the president,

sending handwritten letters directly to the White House. We'll need copies of

those letters.

I'll send you copies of our reports.

Not the reports, the original.

I can assure you our analysts are very thorough.

No doubt, but I insist.

Just say yes.

Fine. But I want every available officer out looking for this guy.

Absolutely.

Sir, you go.

You'll have all available resources and full coordination with our divisions.

Good.

I want to embed Agent Kelvin with your team.

Yeah, no problem. We can do that for you.

Officer Juarez?

Agent Kelvin's going to ride with you. He's going to help question Hudson's

family members.

Let's go.

At what point do you cancel the president's visit?

We are nowhere near that point.

Bro, we know this guy could be out on a hunting trip. I know that this is high

-level stuff.

This is my everyday.

So let's just chase down the bad guy and check him off the list.

I'm just gonna say it. Not a fan.

That's twice. It felt like he defaulted talking to Tim, right? Am I crazy? No. I

don't think he meant anything by that. We've worked together before. He's just

comfortable with me. Mm-hmm.

All right, I'll go talk to him. No.

That definitely is worse.

It's fine.

We eat ingrained misogyny for breakfast.

Lopez just sent details on our suspect, Jerry Hudson.

She wants us to talk to Jerry's coworkers at 33 surplus.

Copy that.

That Lopez again?

Fast-handed.

He's got a lead already?

Not exactly.

It's mostly memes.

Oh, this one's not a meme.

He wants to know if I could track down a... Girl, he once stated she was

smoking hot, but if she's gotten fat, never mind. He's not interested.

You're an Aries? Oh, yeah. It was a gift.

I'm a Cancer.

Of course. And I bet you're a Gemini ascending. You're good.

I dabble, but I've learned to downplay it at work.

Oh, me too. Everyone is so judgmental of New Age spirituality.

How long have you been in the Secret Service?

I joined right out of college.

Let me guess. You watched In the Line of Fire at an impressionable age?

Not exactly.

Oh.

I don't know you well enough yet. Oh, come on.

This shop is a safe space.

Here, I'll go first.

I believe the reason why tarot works is because it's connected to the non

-linearity of time.

So the tarot isn't sending you a message. You are sending yourself a

message from the future by influencing the card.

I have never thought about it that way before.

That makes a lot of sense.

I know.

So, what made you want to protect the president?

I had all these dreams when I was a kid.

Real vivid. And they had all these historical details that I just couldn't

possibly know any other way. Like from a past life?

Yeah. And I realized I was Abraham Lincoln.

Reborn.

Like Abraham Lincoln Lincoln?

That's the one.

Well, that's why you joined the Secret Service.

To stop what happened to you from happening to another president.

Not what I put on my application, but yeah.

Well, that's amazing.

7 Adam 13, EMT report triggered Arbolo. Suspect Jerry Hudson was just taken to

St. Stephen Hospital.

You're the closest unit.

Control, show us responding.

Did you just bring in Jerry Hudson? Yeah, he was in a single car accident.

Lost control in the intersection, hit a light bulb.

We need to talk to him. He's being triaged in baseball.

Call security and tell them to lock down the hospital.

Any chance he's armed?

I did a pretty thorough exam. If there was a gun, I would have felt it, but

there was an empty knife seat.

Okay, 7-8-13, I need additional units to St. Stephen Hospital for at-large

suspect Jerry Hudson.

Description to follow.

brown hair, blue jeans, white shirt, blood on his face and neck from a head

injury.

Nothing.

What happened to his car?

They were hooking it up to go to the impound lot when I left.

Half a mile on foot with a head injury?

I bet we beat him in.

You'd lose that bet.

7 out of 15. Eyes on Hudson. We need backup at Mid-City.

Motor pool guys are gonna kill me.

Shops get damaged all the time. It's not your fault. I've totaled five.

Seriously?

Back in Texas, they would give you a medal for being a proper lawman.

Hey, they found the tow truck abandoned a half mile away.

Shouldn't be hard to find him, right? He won't make it far on foot. We have no

idea how long he's been planning this. He could have switch cars stashed across

the city, people helping him. Secret Service has to cancel the visit now,

right? I wouldn't count on that.

But they are changing his motorcade route, so I gotta go.

What do you want us to do, Sarge? Right, um...

Okay, get back to the station. Check in with Harper and Lopez.

They're talking to Hudson's ex-girlfriend, so hopefully they'll

learn something that'll help us find him.

How you doing, Margaret? I am Detective Harper. This is Detective Lopez. Hi.

I hope you don't mind. My mom wanted to come. Whatever makes you most

comfortable. I always knew that Jerry was bad news.

Mom. Well, I did.

How long did you two date?

Uh, about ten months.

For six months too long, but every time I tried to break it off he had some

crisis and I felt guilty So I stayed when did his obsession with the

president start?

He was already a little bit paranoid when I first met him, but it just felt

like talk conspiracies about the deep state, you know But then it got worse he

Got worse. He thought that he was being watched that his boss was CIA, that

strangers on the street were reporting on him. He thought that if he could get

to the president, he could make it stop.

I gently pushed back, tried to encourage him to go see someone.

He accused me of being one of them, threatened to hurt me.

Did he?

No.

He punched a hole in the wall and left.

I changed the locks, took my vacation time, went camping for three weeks.

By the time I got back, he seemed to have moved on.

It's such a tragedy.

Really.

He used to be a nice guy.

Honey. Mom.

He was.

Made me feel special.

Made me laugh.

And I did watch him go down the rabbit hole and there was nothing that I could

do to save him.

Do you have someplace safe you can stay until he's in custody?

She can stay with me.

I have a shotgun and I'm not afraid to use it. Let's try and avoid that. We'll

give you a panic button and have units check on you regularly.

Listen, you knew him as well as anyone.

Do you really think that he would hurt the president?

I think that Jerry is a very disturbed man who has the means and ability

to do great violence.

Hey, Joe?

How'd it go today?

Well, we have an armed wannabe assassin on the loose. Present lines of 16 hours.

Other than that... It's always something.

Is there anything I can do? No. All under control.

Secret Service brought additional resources.

Night shift detectives are fully briefed, as are the sergeants. Okay.

Good night.

Hey, hi. I have bad news. I heard you have to redo the motorcade route.

Yes. So I'm going to need to rain check on our romantic first night living

together dinner. I'm sorry.

It's OK.

You want me to stay around and help?

No.

You're worried it'll look like I don't trust you and I'm taking over.

Yeah. Even though I know that's not what you'd be doing, it's just, you know,

appearances are important, especially right at the beginning of a new job.

It's OK.

I'll keep my ring around.

Call me if you have any questions and no one needs to know. Thank you.

You know, in my mind, I'm kissing you right now.

So, first day as my CO.

How did I do? As Sergeant Bradford would say, you performed all tasks adequately.

My CI choice was disappointing.

I don't know. Maybe he'll pay off.

We're good.

We'll see.

Maybe Abraham Lincoln was his method. I thought about that, but he seems so

earnest. Like, I think he really believes it.

Are you sure you don't want to come sit on the couch?

I'm not used to all this soft furniture, so it's going to take me a minute.

Hey, even if Agent Past Life does believe it, is that such a bad thing?

Everyone thinks they were someone special in their past life.

But there's no way that everyone was Cleopatra or Diego Rivera.

You know what the problem is?

I think it says something about his personality, you know?

Like it's so self-aggrandizing.

Out of all my past lives, not a single one was famous.

You remember your past lives? Like, all of them?

Let's not get into it. Who keeps texting you?

My CI.

Well, if it's important, take the call.

Let's see.

It's a video of a kangaroo fighting a deer. Okay, I have not seen that.

No. Line of sight too clear on the western edge.

This guy's a sniper.

Take another run at it.

Be back at 4 a.m. for an update.

Am I talking to Sergeant Chen or LIGF Lucy?

I don't even know anymore.

Still working on the motorcade route?

You know, here's the thing. I cannot shut Sepulveda down for three hours.

It's just not even on the table.

And don't even get me started on Wilshire. We do not have the manpower to

cover even half of those rooftops, so... So it's going to be an all-nighter? For

sure. Have you eaten, at least?

No, but it's not a big deal. I mean, there's a vending machine that I can go

get something from.

God forbid.

This is really sweet.

I think I'm going to cry.

At work, you would never.

You're right.

Have you changed your mind about health?

No, but you could stay and eat with me and listen while I complain about the

Secret Service without offering any advice, like the supportive, live-in

boyfriend you are.

You got it.

We live in a disaster-prone area. We need to be ready for anything, and if we

raised chickens, we'd have...

Guaranteed source of protein. How are you going to protect them from the

coyotes? I'll build them a fortress in the yard.

I'll have my strong, handsome husband build them a fortress in the yard.

What's up? What's channel seven?

Nolan told me to turn it on.

Oh, it's an old people's way to watch the news.

The suspect is still refusing to comply with the police.

Customers and staff... Andy, Andy, what the hell are you doing? I need you to

call off the cops, man. No, you need to put the phone down and walk out the door

with your hands on your head. You said you could get me out of trouble. So you

went to rob a pot dispensary to test that out?

No.

I'm in trouble.

You're in trouble.

Ben, do you know how much trouble you caused last night?

The Department of Public Relations has been fielding calls nonstop about cops

making immunity deals with dirtbags.

It was entirely my fault, sir. I was unclear with my C.I. In Miles' defense.

There is no defense for him or you.

Letting him make a C.I. deal with Fast Andy?

You know better than that. I was giving him enough space to make it a teachable

moment. Well, now it's a teachable moment for both of you.

How do you think this looked on my first day as watch commander?

I'm so sorry, sir. I would bury you both under the doghouse, but the president

lands in two hours and we are no closer to finding Jerry Hudson.

Suit up!

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

Once again, I'm so sorry, sir.

Noted. Now, get your head in the game. Today's going to be a bear. We'll deal

with the fallout tomorrow, if we still have jobs.

I don't think you see my vision.

Okay, a security company slash resort slash makeup line is...

Hard to picture. We wouldn't do them all at once. Morning.

Wesley's killing my dream.

Uh, it's not your dream. You came up with it yesterday.

Going to work.

Force of habit?

No. Close the door.

First of all, I want to be clear. This is temporary.

With the president coming to town, they want a seasoned veteran back in the

office. Which is why they asked me to return as watch commander for the day.

Okay. Tim, this has nothing to do with you or the job you're doing. I mean, it

has something to do with it. The stakes are way too high. And God forbid

something happens today.

There can't be a newbie at the helm. It'll look like we went in unprepared.

I get it. All right, what do you need from me?

Get everybody in roll call.

This is only temporary, so please try to contain your disappointment.

Now, we're all aware of the most pressing issue.

The president lands in two hours, and we have a wannabe assassin on the loose.

The decision has been made to continue the visit, so I need everyone on this.

Detectives Harper and Lopez and Agent Butler will get you up to speed. Our

suspect is Jerry Hudson, avid collector of conspiracy theories and weapons, the

most alarming of which is that Barrett M82.

According to the range master at Hudson's Range, Hudson is accurate up to

800 yards.

The two stops that POTUS is making, first at UCLA for a speech, then at a

fundraiser at Hancock Park, are well secured, but we are adding an awning to

cover the entrance and exit at each location.

Sergeant Bradford will be coordinating motorcade routes. No, that assignment

will remain with Sergeant Chen. I'm a utility player today.

Fine. As of 0600 this morning, we have locked in a primary and secondary route

for both locations. Because of the elevated threat level, street closures

will be more extensive than normal.

I know, but it is what it is. Be prepared for angry motorists and an

increase in reckless behavior.

You got anything to add?

Listen.

Today is why we wear the uniform.

And not just... to keep the president safe, but to ensure the safety of all

Angelenos. Communication is key.

Eyes open.

Stay sharp.

Let's win the day.

Nice speech.

And thank you.

No need to pay the demotion forward.

Your plan is great.

If you thought through threats, these indigents would have missed.

Are you okay?

I'm fine, Sergeant Chen.

What's our first order of business?

Shutting down the west side of Los Angeles.

Here we go.

Eddie, I need a tow truck in Sector 7, north side of 4.

Jerry's.

Creative spelling does not make his angry letters to the president any

easier to read. Took me a minute to figure out he wasn't raging against

pubic policy.

Pubic, oh, right, public.

That's almost as good as the deep state will know my furry.

Hard to say who he hates the most, the president, Justice Department, CIA, or

the English language.

No, definitely the FBI. I can't tell you how many times he's railed against the

feeb.

Actually, it doesn't say the feeb, it says feeb.

Betrayed him, Phoebe deserves to die.

Phoebe doesn't Phoebe.

Margaret Phoebe Dawes.

I think I figured out we were wrong our first day.

You ignored my advice and misled us to you.

That's true.

What I realized is I've had a lot of coaches in my day, and I tend to respond

best to the real hard ass. Like Tim? Yeah, more of a drill sergeant type.

Look, so if I'm messing up, just get in my face, yell. I can take it.

Yeah, what do you got? Hudson's plan is in his letter. Let me guess, kill the

president? No, he's starting with Phoebe, his ex-girlfriend's middle name.

We have to get to her now.

We're on the way, come on.

Margaret, sorry I missed you.

Hey, it's Detective Harper. Call me as soon as you get this.

Okay, thanks.

She's not with her mom either.

Wait, hold on.

Hey, Margaret, where are you? I'm at work. Okay, I need you to get out of

there and go someplace safe.

Gary's coming with me. We are on our way right now.

What was that?

That's him. You've got to hide. I need all available units at 4262, Lorna. Any

room with a door that locks, a bathroom, or... My box is open. Okay, that's

perfect. So barricade yourself in there. Do not come out until we get there.

Okay.

Run! Run!

Run! Run! The police are in there! Hide!

Hide! Go! Go!

Yeah, what's the metro?

No, going in. Good.

Okay.

Go. Get out the door.

Come on. Don't stop until you get across the street.

We'll go left, you take center. Copy.

Listen to me carefully, Officer Penn.

There is no room for you to be a cowboy today.

We have both seen firsthand how things can go wrong in a gunfight. Stay on my

six, focus on your sector, and control your fire.

Yes, sir.

Let's do this.

You hear that?

Is anyone injured?

No, we're okay. Does anyone know where Margaret is? No, we haven't seen her.

All right, stay low, stay quiet. We have additional units on the way. We have six

secured upstairs. Margaret is not with them. Repeat, Margaret is not with them.

All right, stay here. Protect them. What? Don't argue, just do it.

Suspect down. Good.

Control 7 and 15.

We have a suspect in custody.

We need an ambulance for one suspect. Two gunshot wounds in the shoulders.

He's conscious and breathing.

We have code 4.

Hey, you okay?

Yeah.

Is it over? Yeah, it's over.

It's okay.

It's over.

Who am I kidding? I do this job for free.

Well, POTUS is in the air, and we are out of here. Thank God.

No, no, not that I'm expressing relief that you are leaving. It's just this

town loses their mind when you disrupt their commute.

I totally understand.

It was a pleasure working with you.

Likewise. I really mean it. I don't tell too many people about the, uh,

uh, past life thing, and it was nice talking to someone who believes me.

Of course.

And who knows?

Well, maybe we connect so well because in a past life, I was Mary Lincoln.

Or John Wilkes Booth.

I'm kidding.

I was kidding.

Okay, I don't take myself that seriously, right?

Oh.

Kevin Kelvin of the Secret Service. His name is Kevin Kelvin? Yes. Not the

point, buddy.

You know what? Never mind. I'm just glad this crazy day is over.

You guys were the heroes.

Is he doing our job?

Oh, he's being modest.

Your former training officer is as brave as the first man who ate an oyster.

Don't I know it.

I've been thinking about your coaching preference.

The dual thoughts thing? Yeah. I'm not going to do that.

We don't always get to pick the personality of our supervisors, and it's

not my job to be your preferred T.O. It is your job to learn how to deal with

me. Got it? Got it.

Good.

That was a very drill sergeant thing to say.

I contain multitudes.

Hey. Hey. Thanks for stepping in today.

There's nothing you couldn't have done.

Rassus doesn't know you.

So start forging those relationships.

Bring coffee to the weekly meetings. Memorize their kids' names. I get it. I

need to work on my social game. Exactly.

Lucy can give you some pointers.

All right. That's it.

All yours.

Tell you what, this job's a lot harder than I thought it would be.

If it's any consolation, it doesn't get any easier.

Great to hear.

If you need anything, I just want to talk.

I know where to find you.

Sir.

Got a minute?

Yeah.

Hey, listen.

Nice work today. Your accommodation is being talked about, which should put

this past Andy screw up to bed.

About that, um...

Can I speak freely?

Sure.

Officer Penn is my rookie now, but I can't train him effectively if I have

you second-guessing my methods every shift.

Now, I'm aware you have a decade of seniority over me.

You're right.

I am painfully aware of what second-guessing feels like, and it won't

happen to you again.

Officer Penn is yours to train.

That said... Fast Andy was a perfect storm of stupid. Now as your watch

commander, it is my job to yell at you if your training produces a bad result.

Understood. Thank you.

For what it's worth, I admire how you handled yourself today.

That could not have been easy.

Thank you.

That was nice.

So, are you ready to go home?

for our first official night together?

God, yes.

You know, great work with the president's visit today.

I know, right?

Thank you for saying that.

So I changed my mind. I now fully endorse my wife embracing a lifestyle

that involves zero gunfights for presidential effect.

Sorry, you missed your window. I already gave up on that athleisure wear company.

I didn't even know that was on the table. And all the other new hustles

Harper and I are dreaming about.

I'm not ready to quit this job just yet. Yeah, I figured.

But I do have a new dream.

It involves a suite at the Four Seasons.

Tonight? Yeah.

My mom's watching the kids.

I'll meet you in the hotel bar in 30 minutes.

Yeah. You'll be Max, an international man of mystery.

And I'll be Christina, an insatiable.

Corporate shark in town for a conference.

I love that for us.

Go get your ass in the car.

I'll be there in 30.

Okay.

Welcome home.

Thank you.

I got smaller than before.

Look, I wasn't sure where you wanted anything, so I held off.

Oh, it's my baby. Come here.

Hi. This is kind of overwhelming.

Yeah. That's a lot to do. You want to just go out to dinner?

Yes. I really, really do. Can we bring Kojo?

It's going to severely limit our restaurant options.

But, I mean, how could we not? For sure.

Kojo.

Let's go. We're going to dinner. Good boy. Let's go, let's go. Come here.

Okay. All right. You ready? Yeah. Let's do it.

Come on. Wait, wait, wait.

Okay, now we can go.
