Original subtitles

Previously on The Rookie. Detective Harper, did you tell my client? I will

find a way to hang these murders around your neck and lock you away forever.

As an officer of the court, I have no choice but to report your conduct with

Glasser to Internal Affairs.

We should go to D.C.

John. No, I mean it. We are strong enough to navigate the separation, and

you really want it.

7 Adam 15 and Adam 300 to monitor.

10-67 in the alley at 4th and Cole.

Woman covered in blood pounding outdoors.

Any more

information from that 911 call? No, just a bloody woman in distress.

Guys, we got blood here.

Adam 300, requesting additional units.

Copy that, Adam 300. Additional units in row.

No!

Easy. Easy.

Got you. Get the med kit.

Request RA, female victim, multiple stab wounds.

It'll be all right. We have an ambulance on the way.

Jordan,

is that who hurt you?

Adam 300, be advised, that man is involved.

We have another victim in a van.

I'm sorry for inviting myself over like this. No, no, no, no. James has the

school run this morning, so I'm all good.

Thank you.

Show me.

So, Jordan Sharp, Courtney Sutton. Best friends since Palm's middle school.

No criminal records, no fixed address.

Jordan's parents say that they were taking a year off to do the whole van

life thing, trying to chart a path towards college. Is there early theory

on why they were brutalized? According to border control, they were going back

and forth to Baja, Mexico six times just this year. So, drug mule.

Yeah. Pretty girls with clean records. That is a cartel's dream.

Border Patrol just waves them through.

Yeah, I mean, young women like this with the confidence to just go out into the

world and deal with whatever it hands them, they're usually pretty naive about

the world.

I know I was.

Hold up. You were hashtag van life.

I dropped out of grad school and took a little bit of time to find myself.

I spent nine months showering outdoors and eating roadside burritos. Okay, we

are going to put a pin in that conversation. Any clue on...

who they could be mewling for.

You know, there's social media posts.

Um, where is it?

Yeah, okay. It said that they spent a lot of time in Scorpion Bay.

That is Costa Sangre's territory.

Well, that explains the brutality of the murders. The cartel was trying to send a

message. I mean, but why?

It could be a dozen reasons. They screwed up, they stole, they were in the

wrong place at the wrong time.

My love, defensive wounds like this, they fought like hell to survive.

I mean, the last thing Courtney did was try to just get her friend help.

I know they made mistakes, but they did not deserve to die like this. That's

crazy. No, they didn't.

I want in on this.

Yeah?

And you charged your headphone?

Yes. And you remembered to pack everything? Yep.

Your night guard?

Nope.

And contact lens solution?

Dang it!

How did you know exactly what I'd forget?

You've never once remembered in all our travels.

Really? Yeah, I've learned to ask for a contact lens solution in four languages.

Are you going to do okay?

I'm fine.

We are going to be fine.

We're going to be better than fine.

This is a trial run. It's five days.

I'm going to go look for an apartment, meet the new team. I'm now moving,

moving until the end of the month.

The car is here.

I've got to go.

I love you.

Go. Okay.

Bye. Bye.

Now, it's a non-starter. Look, you want to call down the wrath of God on Costa

Sangre in L.A.? I'm all in.

An undercover op with Lucy in Mexico?

Forget it. We got no jurisdiction.

PID found a cigarette pack in the weeds under the van. Mexican packaging.

And the girls don't smoke. Finding a pack of Mexican cigarettes in L.A. is

not out of the ordinary. Yeah, but there are other key forensics that also point

to Mexico. And the murders were gruesome, even for the cartel.

If that was done by a local, the streets would be buzzing, and I have heard

nothing.

I don't need your buy-in.

I need your support to go to Gray.

I hear the Monica Task Force is targeting Cosa Sangre's boss, Rogelio

Zambada. If those women were low-level drug mules, you're going to have to

climb two miles of food chain to get to Zambada. And why isn't Lucy here with

you pushing for this? She wants this approved on its merit, without the

girlfriend factor.

But she will use it if you say no to me.

Have you heard back from I.A.?

I got my notice of intent, but the hearing has not been scheduled. And if

you are implying that I am using this as a way to delay my showdown with internal

affairs... No, I'm wondering why you're spearheading a mission when you made it

very clear over the last four years that you were done with long-term undercover

work after it pretty much destroyed your life.

When I was working undercover with the cartels, I knew so many girls that

either ended up missing or dead, and nobody cared.

If IA takes my badge, at least I know that I spent the last of my time here

trying to get justice for these two women.

Okay.

That's my answer.

So you'll support us going to the task force? Yeah.

And? And I will find the resources to cover it.

But none of this matters if Gray says... No.

Zimbardo's not a front burner target.

And even if I believe that you're in the style of getting close to him... Garza's

not going to divert focus from our current targets.

He will if you ask him.

Sir, if you don't say yes, we both know that these murders will go unsolved.

Careful, Sasha.

I've seen plenty of tragedy on this job.

I don't need a lecture on justice.

With all due respect, sir, you have never been these girls.

You have never experienced.

the particular type of pain and fear that they went through. How brave they

had to be to go out into the world knowing how treacherous it is simply

because they're female.

And yeah, how that bravery and naivety caused them to be vulnerable to the

cartel. I'm not excusing their criminality. I just... It

shouldn't have cost them their lives.

When you're looking back on your deathbed, you... No.

Sorry.

Sir, the politics and the bureaucracy of this will not matter. What will matter

is that you stood up for these women.

Well, so much for not lecturing me.

Okay, let's say I'm on board. What's this going to cost the task force?

Very little.

Tim can get us the funding and the physical resources. The only thing we

need is one FBI agent to give the op legitimacy with the Mexican government,

preferably someone who speaks Spanish.

What? Is Bailey on her way to D.C.? Yeah, her flight left 20 minutes ago.

You won't mind if I loan you to Lopez for a surveillance assignment?

No, whatever she needs.

We're good. You want to fill him in?

Sure.

Man of the hour is Keyshawn DeMarco, otherwise known as Hamster, but don't

let the cute nickname fool you.

Keyshawn has an affinity for brute force trauma that he's parlayed into a growing

leg-breaking business.

Last week he saw the two witnesses in a RICO case I'm trying.

Almost caused him to try. We have a warrant for his arrest, but he's gone

off the grid. I got round-the-clock surveillance authorized on several of

his haunts. I need you and your rookie to post up outside his baby mama's

house, Kennedy Stowe.

Whoa. Try not to let the impressive front porch distract you from the fact

that Kennedy threw a classmate through a window in high school. She's hot and

dangerous. Officer Penn, this assignment could last until you're scheduled to

graduate the FTO program.

You'll be under a microscope until it's complete.

Yes, sir. Won't let you down.

Sixth hour. No one's coming in or out. Well, if answer was easy to find, Lopez

wouldn't have half the station on it.

You know, quit looking for the hot mama sighting and widen your focus a little

bit. We'll give your eyes a rest and you'll learn about the neighborhood.

It's a roll call. It looks like random letters and numbers, but it's a list of

gang members.

The numbers stand for letters and alphabet.

Exactly. Simple code, but it can give you a lot of information.

Most of the numbers up there are 14 and 2.

14 for N, 2 for... B means no whole boys.

Hamster's gay.

Exactly. Means he feels safe here. He feels at ease amongst friends. So he'll

be back.

In Sugar Land, there are new things.

Like if you saw Misty Foreman packing up the kids to take to her mother's, it

meant her husband Carl was dealing again.

But it's different here.

If something's going on at once, I feel like I'm running behind.

I keep thinking I should hit some neighborhood hangouts in my off hours.

You know, keep a low profile and get a better feel for what's going on. Okay,

that's a bad idea. Not only is it inherently unsafe, but it's against

regulations. Don't go policing in your off-duty hours.

All right.

Who leads us here? I'll do a deep dive into an old boy's database tonight.

Great. I'm gonna make cheesesteak and watch Commando.

Two things Bailey hates.

El Mesquital campsite. This is where Courtney and Jordan spent their time in

Baja. I pulled previous satellite imagery for the last six months.

There's obviously a lot of camper turnover, but a few of the vehicles have

been there the whole time. Understood.

Receipts from Jordan's van show that they bought Ozempic from a local

farmacia and sold it across the border for a hefty profit.

We think this is how the cartel targeted them as potential mules. So we'll follow

in their footsteps. Hopefully they'll see us as equally easy targets.

Great. Let's talk undercover personas.

The Bureau of Cyber Unit has the ability to launch social media pages for each of

you. That appeared to go back over several years.

And they will hold up to a metadata check? Yeah.

Cool. All right. So I have one. My name is Shia Sun, but I go by Shia. I was

born in Chicago. I went to Kansas City Art Institute where I got a degree in

fiber arts.

I sold a couple of pieces, but I realized that there wasn't much money to

be had in textile sculpture.

I met the love of my life two years ago, and we've been joined at the hip ever

since. And I am that love of her life, Avery Reed. I was raised in Alaska, but

hated every frigid moment of it. So I left and went to California at the age

of 18 and never looked back.

Surfing is my passion. I work odd jobs, but never really wanted a career. I just

wanted enough cash to chase the endless summer.

It'll be four weeks.

Minimum. I don't know. You just moved in.

It's like you're already moving out.

You could think of it as an excuse to play your video game, but full volume

all weekend.

You make my life sound so empty. No, no, no, no. Okay, okay. How about this?

The longer I'm gone, the happier you'll be when I come back.

Hey, sweetie. Mommy's got to go now.

Okay. Leah.

Yes? Remember, Mommy said I was going to have to leave for a little while.

You'll be back?

I will be back as soon as I can, okay?

Okay.

I love you.

I love you.

Mommy, would you please?

Okay. Thank you.

Thank you.

What are you trying?

One.

Hey.

Hit the van. It's gassed up and ready to go.

Okay, let's do this.

I'll let you guys say goodbye.

I want you to know it is a tribute to your excellent mothering that she is so

secure.

Okay.

You got this. I love you. I love you, too.

It'll be worth it.

Okay.

You ready?

Yeah.

Lord, I wish we had something to do, I... You keep drinking all that coffee,

you'll have something to do, all right.

Why are you so tired, anyway?

I've been up nights studying, trying to get inside hamsters of the world.

This could be him.

715, possible suspect sighting. Send backup to 3200 Falk Drive.

Hey.

That's him.

Let him get inside.

Cut! Run!

Stop! We need to get the PD!

He's running!

715, put in vehicle pursuit.

Eastbound over fence. 3200 Falk Drive.

Suspect all in black.

Suspect heading south towards Santa Monica Boulevard.

Suspect entering B2A Car Wash.

Suspect entering B2A Car

Wash.

Where'd he go? How the hell should I know? You're the one who had eyes on

him. I don't know how I lost him. He was right in front of me, didn't I? Why did

you go in after him? You should have just held the perimeter on the back

side. No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

All right, Jen, you guys, backtrack wherever he came from. See if you can

track him down. You guys circle around the back side of the building. I'm going

to wait out here on the front.

Seven out of 15. We're code four. Suspect unaccounted for.

Get in the car, Bubbles.

Forget police tactics. It's a failure of common sense.

Yes, sir. There's no excuse.

Maybe if you hadn't been burning the midnight oil playing no-ho catch-up, you

could have focused better. Now Hamster knows we're up in his spots, he's going

to burrow deeper underground.

I should ask Harper to keep an eye out for him in case he makes a run for

Mexico.

Man, I used to love this.

Heading into the great unknown after I bailed on grad school, suddenly it was

like anything could happen. Life was just pure possibility.

Why did you drop out?

Okay, so one day I was talking to a professor about career paths, and

suddenly my heart just started beating so fast I couldn't breathe. I had no

idea what was going on. You were having a panic attack.

Yeah. It felt like somebody had turned the lights on, and I could see...

All of my choices in this entire chain.

And at the start, my parents were just acting like if I didn't get an advanced

degree, I would end up homeless.

So two Dr. Chans weren't enough? They wanted three?

Actually, my dad's parents were doctors, too. Really?

Anyways, that panic attack made me realize that I hadn't ever really made a

choice for myself. I was just always doing what they wanted. So, yeah, I

bailed. Yeah, you know, I had issues with my parents, but they always only

ever wanted me to be me.

And all I wanted was to be a cop.

You know, Nyla, I know about the IA investigation.

If you want to... Yeah, that is Nyla's business. You know what Avery is focused

on? Thick swells and cold beers. Yes.

And finding the next song in our perfect road trip playlist.

You ready, Avery?

Ready, Ty.

Why haven't we come here before?

Hey, new faces. I like it.

I'm Chase. Hi, Avery. She's Shai.

Shai? Hope not.

What brings you to Baja?

Um, hello.

I mean, it's gorgeous.

I thought you said we'll be able to hear them.

Wait a sec.

Shotgun might need fine-tuning.

You came to the right place. Perfect beach way.

Do you surf?

Yeah, mostly I fall.

But keep trying, though. War is checking. You know, when I volunteered

for this, I thought I was going to be Nolan and Bailey in Prague, not me and a

bitch fighting a losing battle against bugs and snakes.

Yeah, well, you should have read the fine print.

Yeah. So anyway, it's a pretty chill group. But if anyone gives you trouble,

just let me know.

We will. Thank you.

Oh, we do a drum circle by the fire every night. You should join.

Great.

That sounds fun.

Really? I mean, for Avery.

You're gonna hate it. Yeah, I am.

Dude, I am too close to graduation to mess up this badly. I gotta make it

right. By doubling down on your screw-up?

Trust me, I am the poster child for that kind of behavior, and that, that is the

wrong way to go. Just own your mistake.

Save going rogue until it's hard to get fired for it. Rogue?

It's not going rogue.

It ain't kind of going rogue.

It's just some unpaid OT watching a baby mama all night.

What's in it for me? Other than the satisfaction of helping a friend.

Okay, if something comes from it, I'll cut you in on the credit.

It'll help smooth your path back into the FTO program.

And what if it all goes wrong?

Then you're never there.

Okay.

Cheers. Cheers.

That's the house. Do you really think this guy, Hamster, is going to be coming

back? Nope.

I'm hoping he'll get a late-night boot car and lead a straight home.

Hang that dream up to dry.

Get those streams up or die.

I can't sleep.

Yeah, me neither. You did this for fun for nine months.

I lived in a hot spot, so I actually had to pitch a tent every single night.

Yeah, James wants to go on a family camping trip, and I am just not sure

that our marriage can survive that. Well, after everything you guys went

through last year, I feel like you guys are pretty battle-tested.

Yeah. You know, I was still scared to tell James that I screwed up so badly

with the Glasser case.

Did he lecture you about policing?

No, worse. He was completely on my side.

He wanted to fight?

You know, it's easier to defend yourself if you're being attacked, but there is

no defending telling someone you're going to hang the case around their neck

when you have no evidence.

I like he's a serial killer.

Yeah, and he might get away with it because I let my emotions get in the

way. Wesley's got this.

Glasser's going to prison for a very long time.

I hope so.

You actually do look like you know what you're doing and you would be really

good at it.

Who is this guy?

You know, I might keep my Etsy shop open when this is done. I think jewelry

making is good for my mental health.

Yeah, looks like we might have a nibble.

Hola, pretty lady.

Como esta?

Bien, bien.

Your girls are new at the campsite, right?

Are you kidding me?

I don't recognize them from the campsite. It could be cartel.

We feel.

Sorry, it's Chinese.

Cool.

These jewelries.

Beautiful. Do you sell those?

Mostly up north.

There's a farmer's market in Malibu. Lots of rich people out there to buy

from you, right?

Yeah.

Rafael Rafa Navarro, mid-level lieutenant for Costa Sangre.

Did I see you girls last week at the farmaceta?

It's possible. We were over there.

Huh.

Maybe jewelry is not the only thing you sell to rich ladies in Malibu.

Listen, we're not doing anything wrong. No, of course not.

We're all allowed to earn a living, right? It's your time, your effort, your

ability to buy cheap authentic here and sell it for three times as much in the

States.

Look, to be honest, I do the same thing. Come on, everyone here does it.

Only that I can't make it across the border this week.

Would you girls be interested in taking my shopping with you?

Come on, I can even have a friend meet you to collect the pharma.

I don't know. I mean, we just do it to afford our lifestyle. Of course, yes.

And I'll be more than happy to contribute, let's say, $1,500 US.

Hmm?

Come on.

We could get that laser welder. Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay.

Excellent. Excellent.

I told you, nothing illegal, just some local low-price medicine. There is a

number in the box. Just call it when you land in Los Angeles, and my friend

called to pick it up.

Bye, girls.

Bye.

Did you see the... Yeah.

You think he's the one that killed Jordan and Courtney?

Could be.

Maybe they tried to break free, but he couldn't take the risk. They told

someone and blew up his whole operation.

All right, let's get moving. We'll coordinate the handoff surveillance with

Tim on the way.

Not a word.

I would never.

Oh, but Tim?

I hate you.

I know.

This is Alpha Unit. They're landing. Copy. Harpens, you're landing.

Here we go.

They're being filmed. Blue SUV.

Copy. Alpha unit says the swap's being filmed by the blue SUV.

Silver sedan is exiting the parking lot. Follow unit, they're all yours.

Welcome to Astro Burger.

Can I take your order?

No, but I've got something else you can take. I'm a sucker for a man in uniform.

Easy. We're on to the guys who you gave Rafa's drugs to and the blue car

recording the exchange.

Blackmail us.

That means we'll be making a trip to the hardcore drug store.

Any clarity on who killed Jordan and Courtney?

Maybe.

Our cartel contacts amongst the brand we found at the murder scene. That's pretty

weak. Yeah, I know.

All right, back to it.

That'll be $10.70.

Thank you.

See you soon.

I'll be here.

Max.

It's been two weeks, man.

How much longer are we going to do this?

You're already going above and beyond.

You can tap out any time.

I'm not going to leave you out here alone.

But this has got to be last night.

Dude, you're exhausted.

You're pulling double duty. The last thing that you want to have happen is

things go sideways on the job because you're a zombie.

You're right.

And I appreciate you for looking out.

Don't get me wrong.

This has been really fun and feeling relevant again and the whole thing.

That being said, I got to pee. You want anything from 7-Eleven? Oh, God, no.

You spying on my girl?

No, man, I'm just, uh, looking for bats.

But it's not a problem.

I'll just dip. How dumb do you think I am?

You're the cop that chased me through the car wash.

Get your ass out.

Reach for a piece, they'll be picking brains out of your upholstery for a

week. All right.

All right.

Where's your gun?

It's under my jacket.

Take it off the holster.

Throw it into the gutter.

Carefully. I can't leave a loaded gun on the street.

If that, I'll leave it there attached to your dead body.

Now your phone.

We're gonna go for a little ride.

What are you doing? Getting rid of your problem. You can't kill a cop.

Is he really dead if he never found a body? Baby, you just can't. This is

crazy.

Stop arguing.

Seth,

what's going on? Miles is in trouble.

Where is he? Outside of Kennedy's house.

Hampton came back and he's got Miles. What is he doing at Kennedy's house?

What are you doing there? Never mind. Just... I'm on my way. Do not engage.

This is Officer John Nolan. I'm calling to report a kidnapping in progress.

Go back in the house, girl. You called me out here. What do you think was going

to happen? Baby, this is crazy. Stop arguing.

I'll call you in a couple of weeks when the heat dies down.

Give me a kiss.

You got your cuffs on you?

Yeah. Cuff yourself.

Be smart here. Keep going.

Cause I'm a cop, ain't it? Get in, let it crawl, think of the word, I knock out

your friends.

Where you last up, man?

Okay, you got him? The baby mama's in on it.

Get you out of here.

You okay?

Hey, man, you saved my life.

What's the problem, man?

In our unit, the in-progress kidnapping, we're code four.

You all right? He got his bell rung. Nothing left right now. Good. I'll have

to wait to yell at him.

Sir, I... Now, shut up. You were doing off-the-book surveillance on a violent

felon, and you brought Ridley?

Civilian? No one's talking to you.

Go to the hospital, get checked out. When you're finished, you get back to

the station and clean out your locker. You're done.

What were you thinking?

That was a quick turnaround.

No, one paradise call.

Baja's like a siren song, that's what I always say.

Hey, and I am back, isn't it?

How long do you think before Rafa makes contact again?

A day or two.

Or now.

Heads up.

Yeah, I see him.

Hey, um, go watch out for that guy.

Bad news.

Hey, take a walk.

Gotta talk to the girl.

No problem.

Thank you. Come on, girls, go!

Welcome back.

Any trouble?

No, it's good.

Glad to hear it.

I need you to make another run.

Right now, in a bigger package.

Um, thanks, but no thanks. That was a one-time thing. I mean, we're set now.

Wrong. Unless you want LAPD for scissors, the girls work for me now.

You wouldn't do that. Those are your... You're a man. Very kind of you. Got a

dozen more waiting in the wings.

No, we can't. It's no different the last time you'll get way through the border

and meet my guys in L.A. Okay, but there has to be a better way. No, no, there's

no better way. There's no other way. Open up the back.

Look at this. Remember how I said there were a few vehicles that never left the

campsite? When we landed here, I asked Border Control to run all the license

plates. And Rafa didn't kill the girl.

This was taken three hours after we found Jordan and Courtney's bodies.

Chase was crossing back into Mexico.

All right, you know what? That's enough. Get your ass in gear. We're going to

follow you to the border to make sure you don't chicken out.

What are you doing?

I'm talking to you. Hi, Dad. I, um... Daughter, Chase killed Jordan and

Courtney.

How do you want to play this?

Give me a minute.

Let me just talk to my girlfriend for one second. We will go after that, okay?

Hey. Chase killed the girl. What? He must be working for a cartel. Maybe

Rafa.

I say we hold on arresting him and make the drug run to L.A. What? No.

This is major weight, which will make for a bigger arrest on the other side.

No, Nyla.

The whole point of us coming down here was to get those two women justice.

It is the only thing that matters. Right?

You're right. You're right.

I'm sorry. No, don't apologize. I got you.

Okay?

Come on. Hey, let's go. Hurry up. Sorry. Yeah.

Okay. Yeah. Selena, we are closing the door. I hope you're ready. You can't do

this. I'm sorry. Come on. Please.

And I'm out of the day.

Unexpected. Yeah? You like that? Yeah, you're gonna love this. Get your hands

up on that van right now. What?

Chase, you are under arrest for the murder of Jordan Sharp and Courtney

Sutton. What?

What? You think we're here just to amuse ourselves with the local drug trade?

We're here to get justice for the two women that you murdered. Wait, hold on.

Arms behind your back. I didn't kill anyone.

The crew... The crew you what?

I'm just a spotter for a rival gang.

I tell them when Costa Sangre's moving a big package into L.A. and they steal it.

I never leave this beach. He's lying.

We have you on camera at the border coming to Mexico from their murders with

blood on you.

They should have just let us rob them.

But they fought back, ripped my mask off. I didn't want to do it, but I

didn't have a choice. They'd have given me up.

Don't look at me.

Don't look at me. Can somebody get him out of here?

Sorry. No need.

Grant and Elena have it handled.

Yeah.

Hang out here, watch the water, feel our food.

Miles, hold on.

All right.

I wasn't in the mood to say goodbye.

Good, because you'll only be gone for two weeks.

What? In the light of day, I convince Sergeant Bradford to adjust your

punishment. Two weeks administrative leave followed by a six-month extension

in the program.

Sir, thank you. Don't get too excited.

A six-month extension is severe.

It'll be a significant black mark on your record. One that'll hamper your

career choices moving forward in the department.

I understand.

I'm not sure they appreciate you going to bat for me. I wouldn't do it if I

didn't think you were worth it, Miles.

You have the skills.

You know the job.

What you lack is the confidence.

Acting like a cowboy, that's just a cover. Deep down, you worry that you're

not worthy. You think everyone else sees it the same way. The only one who can

change that mindset is you.

So, I bought you six months.

Convince us you have the maturity needed.

Yes, sir, I won't let you down.

I know.

I'll see you in two weeks. Two weeks.

Driving me home.

I could get along with it.

The 4 a.m. car home.

Better turn back now.

Have I gotten sold?

Here we are.

I'm away from home.

Nyla, hey, thank you for letting me do this with you.

Are you kidding? You were the perfect girlfriend.

I'm right back at you. Oh.

Hey, um, everything's going to be all right.

You're too good of a cop for IA to come.

I hope you were right.

But thank you for saying that. Yeah.

Hi,

baby.

You okay?

Yeah.

Back to reality.

You know, whatever happens, that cannot take away who you are.

It definitely can't take away what we've built.

Okay?

I love you too.

At one point, Jean-Claude Van Damme floats above the scene and delivers a

six-minute monologue.

And this is a good movie. It's a perfect movie. Okay, if you say so, then I'm in.

Miles. Hey, you back.

Yeah. You okay?

Yeah. I'm, uh, I wasn't fired.

That was on the table?

Yeah.

Okay, what happened?

I, um, I really messed up, Selena.

Oh, I'm sorry. You guys have plans. I'll get out of your way. No, no, no. Dang,

you need cheering up. And have I got the movie for you? Movie night. I'll get the

popcorn. Van life, Lucy, sounds fun.

You couldn't handle van life, Lucy.

No, look, I'm aware.

She definitely wouldn't have dated a cop.

Actually, that time in my life is mostly bad.

On the bright side, that's what led me to join the Academy.

I think I just wanted to be that person I didn't see around me. Somebody who

cared.

And then you got a training officer who punished you for caring too much.

Yeah. But, you know, I won in the end.

I just got home. I know. I've been watching the security feed for the last

hour. I ordered you some things.

Boy, did you.

Flowers, cake, beer?

Well, I couldn't send myself, so I ordered some of your other favorite

things.

Flowers are really my favorite thing. Well, it was very sweet.

Oh, I love you.

I love you, too.

Now, it's late over there. You should get to bed.

I know.

But first, we're going to eat cake together.

Oh, baby.

They were out of chocolate?

Yeah.
