1 00:00:03,879 --> 00:00:06,220 Hey, you're not nervous I'm going to embarrass you in front of your old 2 00:00:06,220 --> 00:00:08,980 captain, are you? Of course not. I don't know why I'm so anxious. 3 00:00:09,220 --> 00:00:12,580 Russ has always been one of my biggest champions. He's the one that pushed me 4 00:00:12,580 --> 00:00:14,640 to go to Officer Kennedy's club for my first tour. 5 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,000 Well, I'm sure he's not coming all the way to L.A. so that he could tell you 6 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,200 he's disappointed in you. I just wish he would give me some sort of idea what 7 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,780 this is about, but that's Russ. There she is! Hey, Russ! It's so good to see 8 00:00:25,780 --> 00:00:26,780 you! Ah! 9 00:00:27,790 --> 00:00:30,730 John Nolan. Colonel Russell Wilkes. Please, call me Russ. 10 00:00:31,450 --> 00:00:34,430 It's a pleasure to finally meet the man behind the story. Yeah, likewise. 11 00:00:34,710 --> 00:00:35,770 Sit down. Thank you. 12 00:00:36,830 --> 00:00:40,950 Really appreciate you being here, John. No, I didn't give away too much over the 13 00:00:40,950 --> 00:00:43,210 phone, but what I'm here to discuss will affect both your lives. 14 00:00:43,450 --> 00:00:45,790 It seems only fair to include you in the conversation. 15 00:00:46,170 --> 00:00:49,690 The SecDef has tasked me with putting together a working group inside the 16 00:00:49,690 --> 00:00:50,690 Pentagon. Wow. 17 00:00:50,850 --> 00:00:54,330 A team of my own choosing that would spearhead bringing battlefield medicine 18 00:00:54,330 --> 00:00:55,670 into the 22nd century. 19 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,300 The most consequential assignment in my career. 20 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,200 And you were the first person I'm asking to be a part of it. 21 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,320 I mean, it's an honor just to be nominated. 22 00:01:06,580 --> 00:01:11,400 Totally. Russ is a genius. He could recruit anyone for the 14 group. And the 23 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,840 fact that he called me first, I mean, that's pretty great. 24 00:01:15,060 --> 00:01:19,980 Yeah, 100%. That's so cool. But, I mean, our life is perfect right now. There's 25 00:01:19,980 --> 00:01:21,060 no way we're messing that up. 26 00:01:21,340 --> 00:01:22,340 No way. 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:23,880 Perfect. 28 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,860 I need an RA to Central Station Market. There's a male GSW victim who's been 29 00:01:36,860 --> 00:01:40,760 shot in the head and the back. Two suspects, black hoodie, mask, and pen. 30 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,500 One headed east towards Broadway in pursuit of second suspect. 31 00:01:44,780 --> 00:01:45,780 Move, move! 32 00:02:14,700 --> 00:02:15,980 Why are you texting me when I'm right here? 33 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,200 Letting you sleep. 34 00:02:17,300 --> 00:02:19,760 Sweet. Wait, are you looking at real estate? 35 00:02:20,860 --> 00:02:22,180 We have to upgrade. 36 00:02:22,460 --> 00:02:24,520 We need more room. A second. 37 00:02:24,820 --> 00:02:27,180 Hub, a closet that fits all our clothes. 38 00:02:27,820 --> 00:02:32,340 I mean, yeah, sure, that would be nice, but we created our family here. Which I 39 00:02:32,340 --> 00:02:36,620 love, but now we're bursting at the seams, and Mama's ready to crack open 40 00:02:36,620 --> 00:02:37,900 that trust fund and get crazy. 41 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,480 I'm not sure I like the sound of that. 42 00:02:39,780 --> 00:02:43,740 Tough. We have money. Uh, no, we have... 43 00:02:44,010 --> 00:02:46,250 Some money, but housing prices in LA are insane. 44 00:02:49,110 --> 00:02:52,090 I guess it couldn't hurt to see what's out there. I love that you've learned to 45 00:02:52,090 --> 00:02:53,390 roll with me rather than resisting. 46 00:02:54,230 --> 00:02:56,650 Yes, you have successfully broken my spirit. 47 00:02:56,890 --> 00:02:57,890 Yay! 48 00:02:59,810 --> 00:03:01,030 Quickie before the kids wake up? 49 00:03:01,950 --> 00:03:04,550 Oh, um... Whoa. 50 00:03:06,510 --> 00:03:07,750 Mom, come here! 51 00:03:10,990 --> 00:03:11,990 Too late. 52 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,480 I like this one. I bet you could hang a swing set from that tree right there in 53 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:16,959 the back. 54 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:23,620 That was my favorite until I saw this. It has a pool and a gym and a 55 00:03:23,620 --> 00:03:26,600 screening room. Wait, hold up. You got screening room kind of money? 56 00:03:26,920 --> 00:03:30,500 Depends on which one of us you ask. Wesley is the king of frugality. 57 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,560 So he would definitely say no, but I lived on credit cards until I met him, 58 00:03:34,580 --> 00:03:36,800 so I'm way more comfortable pushing the envelope. 59 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:41,480 Hey, Nolan, did you tell Officer Hart that the shooters last night were 60 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:42,480 furries? 61 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,840 No, I said they were wearing hoodies. 62 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,780 Are you taking the case? Yeah, do you mind just walking us through it? Yeah, 63 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,040 Bailey and I were coming back from dinner at Central Station Market. 64 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,480 Date night? No, her former commanding officer came to offer her a job, a 65 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,100 Pentagon think tank. 66 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,950 Wow. You really married outside of your league. I know, right? 67 00:04:01,150 --> 00:04:05,270 So is she going to take it? No, it would mean relocating to D.C., so it's a non 68 00:04:05,270 --> 00:04:08,170 -starter for us. I mean, it might be a non-starter for you, but I guarantee 69 00:04:08,170 --> 00:04:11,570 that your overachiever of a wife is seriously thinking about it. No, 70 00:04:11,710 --> 00:04:15,790 actually, she was laughing it off when we talked about, oh, my God, she's 71 00:04:15,790 --> 00:04:16,790 actually thinking about it seriously. 72 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,060 Okay, well, no, if that's something she really wants to do, relocating to D.C. 73 00:04:22,100 --> 00:04:26,080 could be cool. It's not. I spent time there during my joint ops days. It took 74 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,960 me about three weeks to unclench every time I came home. 75 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:30,760 Thank you for that insight. 76 00:04:30,980 --> 00:04:32,580 So, any clarity on the victim? 77 00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:36,320 Fred Wilson, 48, CPA, married, no kids. 78 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,360 No criminal record. Making him an unlikely candidate for a targeted 79 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,160 assassination. Is there anything else about the shooters that you didn't give 80 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,800 Hart? Sorry, I did not get a good look at them. What about CCTV? 81 00:04:48,140 --> 00:04:50,520 Anything there? They were pretty covered up. 82 00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:52,760 But, take a look at them. 83 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,400 Uh, looks like the letter is SF. That would make him Southern Front. No 84 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,440 visible tattoos on the second shooter. 85 00:05:05,780 --> 00:05:11,410 Huh. Yeah. So why would a member of a white supremacist gang partner up with a 86 00:05:11,410 --> 00:05:13,890 black man to execute a civilian in broad daylight? 87 00:05:14,170 --> 00:05:18,810 Told you he'd spot it. You trained him well. Could be that our innocent CPA was 88 00:05:18,810 --> 00:05:22,830 helping the Southern Front launder money, or maybe he had a drug problem 89 00:05:22,830 --> 00:05:27,010 and owed them money. We're trying to get the ME to rush the talk screen, but he's 90 00:05:27,010 --> 00:05:27,949 dodging our call. 91 00:05:27,950 --> 00:05:30,970 Oh, say no more. I'll go deliver the ask in person. Let me collect my boot. 92 00:05:34,210 --> 00:05:35,870 Hey, do you know what this is? 93 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,400 An iron? You know what it's not? 94 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,700 A machete. I am due in court in two hours to testify about a man attacking 95 00:05:42,700 --> 00:05:45,900 people on a bus with a machete. Okay, something must have got switched around 96 00:05:45,900 --> 00:05:48,880 in the evidence locker. We'll figure it out. No, no, no. The case is time not 97 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,160 waived. If we don't find it fast, that psycho is going to be let free. 98 00:05:52,460 --> 00:05:53,600 Okay, have you told the prosecutor? 99 00:05:53,980 --> 00:05:57,880 No. It's Wesley, and I am just trying to keep him in blissful ignorance as long 100 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:58,880 as possible. 101 00:05:59,300 --> 00:06:00,300 Help me. 102 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,500 That's the case number. No, I know, but it's wrong. 103 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,300 Case number isn't wrong. The item might be wrong, but numbers are just numbers. 104 00:06:08,660 --> 00:06:09,660 Fine. 105 00:06:09,840 --> 00:06:15,660 The point is, I have to be at court, and I need that machete, like, ASAP. 106 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:16,880 Case number? 107 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,600 We're not going to find out by using the case number. The number's got switched. 108 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,560 Well, if you don't have the case number, then I can't help you. Oh, Wesley's 109 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:24,560 going to kill me. 110 00:06:24,840 --> 00:06:29,520 Maybe it's just a typo, right? The first eight numbers are the date. The crime 111 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,360 was on January 20th. Cry, 20, 10. 112 00:06:37,599 --> 00:06:39,200 Try 0201-2026. 113 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,680 Wow. 2001-2025. 114 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,040 Are you sure you used the new data entry procedure? 115 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,080 We changed it a few months ago. 116 00:06:53,300 --> 00:06:54,300 Of course I did. 117 00:06:54,340 --> 00:06:59,600 But I wasn't the one who logged the entry because you wouldn't approve the 118 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,220 overtime. I had Smitty do it. 119 00:07:04,219 --> 00:07:06,540 What the hell is your problem? Uh, good morning? 120 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:11,440 I have bent over backwards to treat you well, and this is how you repay me. I 121 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,900 don't, I'm sorry, I don't know what's happening right now. Like hell. 122 00:07:14,180 --> 00:07:16,900 You know your little innocent act would be a lot more believable if they weren't 123 00:07:16,900 --> 00:07:17,900 in your office. 124 00:07:18,380 --> 00:07:22,120 Just know this. If you go through with it, I will do everything in my power to 125 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,320 absolutely destroy you. 126 00:07:30,660 --> 00:07:34,020 Hi. Who are you? What are you doing in my office, and why has it sent Vivian 127 00:07:34,020 --> 00:07:35,020 into a rage spiral? 128 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:36,200 Rita Sanchez. 129 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,320 This is Bradley Wirth. We work with the Democratic Party, and we want you to run 130 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:41,320 for district attorney. 131 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:42,980 And now it makes sense. 132 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,800 That's a hard no for me, by the way, but thanks for stopping by. You obviously 133 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,460 know that Vivian Eckhart's running on a post and that Del Monte dropped out of 134 00:07:49,460 --> 00:07:51,760 the race. Yeah, but that was a month ago. Why come to me now? 135 00:07:52,140 --> 00:07:55,060 Candidly, we've been having a hard time finding someone to take up his mantle. 136 00:07:56,940 --> 00:07:58,080 So I'm your last choice? 137 00:07:58,720 --> 00:07:59,720 Hardly. 138 00:08:01,989 --> 00:08:06,170 Look, Mr. Evers, I wish there was time for us to do our usual dance of 139 00:08:06,170 --> 00:08:09,610 seduction and ego-stroking, but as you rightly pointed out, we're up against 140 00:08:09,610 --> 00:08:13,570 it. The deadline to enter this race is in three days. And Vivian becoming DA is 141 00:08:13,570 --> 00:08:16,030 worst-case scenario for the people of the city. I mean, she has the most 142 00:08:16,030 --> 00:08:17,690 regressive record in your office. 143 00:08:17,950 --> 00:08:20,870 Oh, I agree, but there's zero chance of me beating her. I was temporarily 144 00:08:20,870 --> 00:08:24,270 disbarred. Because of your dealings with Elijah Stone, we know. Yeah, and we are 145 00:08:24,270 --> 00:08:28,630 prepared to embrace that. I mean, you're a hero who put his life and career on 146 00:08:28,630 --> 00:08:30,390 the line to take down a very dangerous kingpin. 147 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,159 Voters love a man who's willing to stand up for what's right. Not to mention, 148 00:08:34,299 --> 00:08:37,100 you're married to a cop, which automatically makes you a more 149 00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:40,740 attractive candidate to anyone worried that progressive means soft on crime. 150 00:08:41,380 --> 00:08:45,220 Look, I don't want Vivian to win any more than you do, but I... But nothing. 151 00:08:45,560 --> 00:08:47,940 A Vivian victory will hurt a lot of people. 152 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,300 And right now, you're our last hope at stopping her. 153 00:08:50,540 --> 00:08:52,840 It may be a long shot, but isn't it worth the risk? 154 00:08:56,340 --> 00:08:57,760 Thought you didn't have time to stroke my ego. 155 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:04,540 You have to let me see him. I don't, actually. On TV, the family has to 156 00:09:04,540 --> 00:09:06,960 identify the body. Yeah, we don't do that anymore. 157 00:09:07,460 --> 00:09:09,780 That's right, ma'am. It's no longer policy. 158 00:09:10,180 --> 00:09:15,460 But trust me, it's for the best. Seeing your loved one like that, it changes how 159 00:09:15,460 --> 00:09:16,780 you remember them forever. 160 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,160 I don't understand. 161 00:09:19,260 --> 00:09:23,560 Fred was a saint. Why would someone want to kill him? Well, that's what we're 162 00:09:23,560 --> 00:09:24,560 trying to figure out. 163 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,200 He's really dead. 164 00:09:27,740 --> 00:09:30,880 Yes, ma'am. I'm afraid so. And we are so sorry for your loss. 165 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:33,780 Okay. Thank you. 166 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:38,820 Thanks for the assist. 167 00:09:39,620 --> 00:09:43,340 Grief makes people a little crazy and I don't like dealing with them when 168 00:09:43,340 --> 00:09:43,979 they're normal. 169 00:09:43,980 --> 00:09:45,440 Why, you work with the dead, I suppose. 170 00:09:48,340 --> 00:09:51,760 Anything jump out at you, the preliminary autopsy? No, a run-of-the 171 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,780 -mill gun homicide. The bullet to the head killed him instantly, but the shot 172 00:09:55,780 --> 00:09:58,120 to the body was fatal as well. Any signs of drug use? 173 00:09:58,460 --> 00:10:03,380 No, but the tox screen is underway. I'll let Harper and Lopez know the second it 174 00:10:03,380 --> 00:10:03,959 comes in. 175 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:04,960 Perfect. Thank you very much. 176 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,260 I once had a widower insist on seeing his wife's body back when I was in Sugar 177 00:10:09,260 --> 00:10:11,720 Land. Ended up suing the city for mental anguish. 178 00:10:11,980 --> 00:10:13,060 Did he win? No. 179 00:10:13,660 --> 00:10:16,080 Case got dismissed when he was convicted of her murder. 180 00:10:16,580 --> 00:10:17,580 Wow. 181 00:10:19,489 --> 00:10:24,230 Please, let her go. Oh, hey. Hi, hi. It's all good. She's fine. 182 00:10:24,450 --> 00:10:28,850 I'm fine. Yeah, I can see that. But two minutes ago, you were grieving. 183 00:10:29,070 --> 00:10:32,550 I'm still grieving. It manifests itself in a noble way. 184 00:10:32,770 --> 00:10:36,070 Right. But you brought your boyfriend to help you identify your husband's body? 185 00:10:36,190 --> 00:10:39,270 Well, I needed emotional support. 186 00:10:39,890 --> 00:10:41,350 She's very sensitive. 187 00:10:41,830 --> 00:10:44,850 Yeah. Well, you can emotionally support each other on the way to the station. 188 00:10:44,950 --> 00:10:45,609 Let's go. 189 00:10:45,610 --> 00:10:46,610 Oh. 190 00:10:46,910 --> 00:10:50,530 This way. This way? Yes. Okay. Put your hands down. Yes, sir. Wow. 191 00:10:52,450 --> 00:10:53,950 I know this looks bad. 192 00:10:54,890 --> 00:10:58,730 Understatement. Your husband was murdered, and in less than 24 hours, you 193 00:10:58,730 --> 00:11:03,010 were getting busy with your side piece down the hall from his body. I didn't 194 00:11:03,010 --> 00:11:04,010 even want to be there. 195 00:11:04,250 --> 00:11:08,950 I told Faith it would look weird, but she insisted. 196 00:11:09,190 --> 00:11:11,570 So you were just trying to be a good boyfriend. 197 00:11:11,850 --> 00:11:13,950 Todd, it's a terrible boyfriend. 198 00:11:14,700 --> 00:11:18,480 He's a lot of fun, but anything that requires emotional depth. Okay, what 199 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:23,280 about Fred? What was he like? He was always super cool anytime that I came 200 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,540 by. You're saying Fred knew about the affair? 201 00:11:25,780 --> 00:11:28,860 It wasn't an affair. It was an open marriage. 202 00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:31,500 The whole thing was Fred's idea. 203 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,420 I wanted a little bit of peace. 204 00:11:33,700 --> 00:11:37,000 Is it possible that Todd wanted you all to himself? 205 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:38,500 Listen, I am... 206 00:11:38,910 --> 00:11:44,230 Twice divorced. I am still paying alimony to the first. I am not trying to 207 00:11:44,230 --> 00:11:47,510 put a ring on it. There's a reason why Todd is divorced. 208 00:11:48,570 --> 00:11:55,150 Todd is a good time, like Coney Island. Fred, on the other hand, was deep 209 00:11:55,150 --> 00:12:01,610 and soulful and romantic, like 210 00:12:01,610 --> 00:12:02,970 Paris. 211 00:12:04,550 --> 00:12:07,430 Coney Island is fun to visit, but you don't... 212 00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:09,820 Move there. Oh, her parents. 213 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,080 What do you think? 214 00:12:11,180 --> 00:12:12,180 I think people are crazy. 215 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,240 But neither of them is a physical match for the shooters. 216 00:12:15,460 --> 00:12:17,200 Still doesn't rule out murder for hire. 217 00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:18,680 Oh, yeah. 218 00:12:18,980 --> 00:12:20,320 Did you put Wesley up to this? 219 00:12:21,420 --> 00:12:24,900 No idea what you're talking about, but if it's pissing you off, I'm happy to 220 00:12:24,900 --> 00:12:29,060 take credit. If he insists on moving forward, I can't guarantee that I'll be 221 00:12:29,060 --> 00:12:30,300 able to keep you out of the crossfire. 222 00:12:32,680 --> 00:12:35,200 Did she just threaten me? Sure seems like it. 223 00:12:35,460 --> 00:12:36,460 But why? 224 00:12:37,050 --> 00:12:39,470 No idea, but I'm gonna find out. 225 00:12:39,690 --> 00:12:40,690 Oh, husband! 226 00:12:41,870 --> 00:12:44,310 You only call me husband when you're mad. What did I do? 227 00:12:44,510 --> 00:12:45,510 You tell me. 228 00:12:45,530 --> 00:12:46,550 Vivian just stopped by. 229 00:12:47,770 --> 00:12:50,490 She told you I was running for DA. Wait, you're running for DA? 230 00:12:51,170 --> 00:12:54,110 Since when? No, no, no, wait. It got sprung on me this morning. What does 231 00:12:54,110 --> 00:12:56,950 that mean? Some people came to talk to me about taking over Sean's campaign. 232 00:12:57,170 --> 00:12:58,170 And you told them no? 233 00:12:58,490 --> 00:12:59,490 I did. 234 00:13:00,190 --> 00:13:05,190 Initially, but... But... Now you're thinking about it? I mean, I'd at least 235 00:13:05,190 --> 00:13:06,590 like to discuss it, but... 236 00:13:06,890 --> 00:13:10,050 I am supposed to be on my way to court right now. Only Lucy texted to tell me 237 00:13:10,050 --> 00:13:12,770 that our key piece of evidence is missing. So is there any chance that we 238 00:13:12,770 --> 00:13:16,170 can just table this until tonight? Fine, but only because yelling at you in the 239 00:13:16,170 --> 00:13:18,350 bullpen might come across as unprofessional. Thank you. 240 00:13:18,710 --> 00:13:19,710 I love you. 241 00:13:24,890 --> 00:13:26,970 Everything okay? Are you free for dinner tonight? 242 00:13:27,450 --> 00:13:32,030 Depends. Can I bring James? As long as you tell him he has to be Team Lopez on 243 00:13:32,030 --> 00:13:33,190 the penalty of death. 244 00:13:33,750 --> 00:13:34,950 We'll be sure to prep him. 245 00:13:36,460 --> 00:13:40,500 I remember Lucy gave me the machete and I logged it like I always do. 246 00:13:40,700 --> 00:13:44,140 Okay, so that right there is the problem, Smitty. The system changed. 247 00:13:44,580 --> 00:13:48,760 Most of the world uses day, month, year. Month, day, year was causing all of 248 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,500 these issues for us with our international cases, which is why we 249 00:13:51,500 --> 00:13:53,440 switched. You know, didn't you read the memo? 250 00:13:54,620 --> 00:13:55,620 Sorry, wait. 251 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,200 I just heard that out loud. Of course you didn't. Important memos are always 252 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,120 covered in the roll call. 253 00:14:02,030 --> 00:14:06,190 Why do I have a panicked ADA knocking on my door to ask for my help to find a 254 00:14:06,190 --> 00:14:08,990 missing machete? Because Smitty wasn't listening when he went over the change 255 00:14:08,990 --> 00:14:10,330 in how we filed case numbers. 256 00:14:11,230 --> 00:14:14,610 What, the day, month, year thing? Yeah. I didn't go over it. 257 00:14:15,110 --> 00:14:17,970 My last day as watch commander was crazy. I left it for you to do. 258 00:14:18,230 --> 00:14:20,770 I thought you handled it. Oh, it's not my fault. It's yours. 259 00:14:21,170 --> 00:14:24,410 Everyone got the memo. It's still your fault, Smitty. Well, it's still on him 260 00:14:24,410 --> 00:14:27,650 for trusting me. I didn't trust you. I thought he covered it, and I just didn't 261 00:14:27,650 --> 00:14:28,359 follow up. 262 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,200 I can't believe I dropped the ball out. I don't care whose fault it is. I need 263 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,200 the machete. 264 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:33,740 It's me to use the old system, right? 265 00:14:34,620 --> 00:14:37,040 Try 01-20-20-26. 266 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:38,320 I can't. 267 00:14:38,340 --> 00:14:39,480 It's a drop-down menu. 268 00:14:39,820 --> 00:14:42,740 There's no 20th month. What, so you can enter the 20th month, but you can't 269 00:14:42,740 --> 00:14:45,880 retrieve the 20th month? Correct. No, that's wrong. It shouldn't work that 270 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,480 way. But that is how it works. 271 00:14:48,020 --> 00:14:51,240 Wesley says the judge is losing his patience. 272 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,180 He can't produce the evidence. He's prepared to dismiss the case. Guys, this 273 00:14:55,180 --> 00:14:56,340 is bigger than one case. 274 00:14:56,819 --> 00:14:59,640 Everything Smitty Logs is a myth, pal. Going back two months. 275 00:15:01,580 --> 00:15:05,380 Did the widow set some light? Not exactly, but her doorbell cam did. This 276 00:15:05,380 --> 00:15:09,380 is from two days ago. The car is registered to a Ryder Frost, known 277 00:15:09,380 --> 00:15:12,980 member of the Southern Front. Well, that tattoo is a mess. Definitely could be 278 00:15:12,980 --> 00:15:16,000 our shooter. Any idea who the other fellow is? Not yet, but it's tasked with 279 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,000 54th Street Gang. 280 00:15:17,220 --> 00:15:21,340 Besides the racial element, don't SF and the 5-4 compete for the same meth 281 00:15:21,340 --> 00:15:24,840 business? They did up until a few months ago when the Armenians pushed Southern 282 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,620 Front further into the valley, but they are certainly not allies. 283 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,420 They kicked the garage, but not the house. Any idea what they were looking 284 00:15:31,420 --> 00:15:34,580 for? We've got a last known for Ryder. We're hoping you go ask him. 285 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,080 Wait. 286 00:15:50,180 --> 00:15:52,800 Control, this is Dr. Beck with Dream World Lake Apartments. Some backup. 287 00:16:07,590 --> 00:16:09,370 Come on, 288 00:16:09,390 --> 00:16:16,850 Ryder 289 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,000 There's nowhere to go. 290 00:16:32,140 --> 00:16:33,140 Put your hands on your head. 291 00:16:33,780 --> 00:16:34,780 Down on your knees. 292 00:16:55,820 --> 00:17:02,760 I'm sorry, Eric. Are these cases from the future? Apparently, the system 293 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,780 didn't know what to do with month 20, and so it just made the math work, and 294 00:17:05,780 --> 00:17:10,060 12 months plus 8 is August 20, 2017. Cases from 21st become September of next 295 00:17:10,060 --> 00:17:11,660 year, and so on. This is unbelievable. 296 00:17:11,940 --> 00:17:15,700 The judge granted a continuance, but we need the machete by noon tomorrow. 297 00:17:16,099 --> 00:17:19,420 Yep, don't worry. We will have it. I'll stick around. I feel responsible. It's 298 00:17:19,420 --> 00:17:21,960 completely on me. I don't should have clarified. You are on your way out. 299 00:17:22,099 --> 00:17:25,599 Okay, you guys are both Spartacus. Okay, let's please start opening the boxes. 300 00:17:25,819 --> 00:17:26,819 Are you coming? No. 301 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,140 Russ? I thought you had a flight to catch. 302 00:17:31,380 --> 00:17:34,040 I do, but I couldn't leave L.A. without making one last appeal. 303 00:17:34,500 --> 00:17:36,960 Well, I guess you better come in, then. Thank you. 304 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,940 Oh, you've really made a nice life for yourself here, Noon. 305 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:50,420 I can see why you'd hesitate before giving it up, but anything 306 00:17:50,420 --> 00:17:51,700 I can say to convince you? 307 00:17:52,940 --> 00:17:57,940 Can I ask why I'm not a doctor or a scientist? I don't have a Ph.D. 308 00:17:58,520 --> 00:17:59,940 Why are you asking me? 309 00:18:00,220 --> 00:18:02,840 Maybe I've been around long enough to know that having a few extra letters 310 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,240 after your name doesn't make you a genius. 311 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,420 I also know that if I bring you a problem, you won't rest until you've 312 00:18:07,420 --> 00:18:11,260 looked at it from every conceivable angle, twice, before bringing me a 313 00:18:11,260 --> 00:18:13,700 solution. What if I can't find a solution? 314 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:15,580 Hell, girl, that's why they call it a think tank. 315 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,360 It does me no good to have a bunch of identical people with identical 316 00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:20,820 viewpoints looking in identical directions. 317 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,640 Baseball team can't be all pitchers. You need somebody to play shortstop. 318 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:26,959 All right. 319 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,420 I miss my flight if I don't get going. So, you know, I take a few days to think 320 00:18:30,420 --> 00:18:31,319 about it. 321 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,720 Talk it over with your man and call me. 322 00:18:34,260 --> 00:18:35,260 I will. 323 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,120 You know, if you don't want the job because it's not the right fit or the 324 00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:44,760 right time, that's fine. I get it. But deciding that you're not good enough 325 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:48,380 before somebody else can, that's the coward's way. 326 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:51,660 And I know you're not a coward. 327 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,160 No, sir, I'm not. 328 00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:59,600 Giddy up. 329 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:07,780 Yeah. All right. 330 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:10,200 Okay, thanks for the update. 331 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,400 Suspect in the Central Station Market shooting fell to his death. That's 332 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,160 awful. Yeah, the guy thought he was an action hero trying to leap between two 333 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,280 buildings. Any leads on the second shooter? No, but the brass has been 334 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,480 blown on my phone. The guy falls to his death in a police pursuit. Everyone's 335 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:24,480 got questions. 336 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:27,360 Captain, always a pleasure. 337 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:30,660 I do not miss that. 338 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,560 I don't think I've seen him sleep more than four consecutive hours since he 339 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,600 took this job. I know being sidelined for the president's visit shook Tim up. 340 00:19:38,100 --> 00:19:42,180 And even though it was more of a CYA decision by the brass, an indictment on 341 00:19:42,180 --> 00:19:45,260 his performance, the optics weren't great for him. 342 00:19:45,460 --> 00:19:46,460 Do you think he should be worried? 343 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,660 I think that watch commander is a thankless job. 344 00:19:49,940 --> 00:19:52,360 You're not in the field, but you're responsible for every knucklehead that 345 00:19:52,360 --> 00:19:55,880 is. Patrol officers want resources you can't give them. The brass expects 346 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,640 results that you realistically... 347 00:19:58,300 --> 00:19:59,300 Can't produce. 348 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,080 And when there's bad press, and they're looking for a head to roll. Right, I 349 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:04,080 didn't think of it that way. 350 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:05,280 Because I made it look easy. 351 00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:08,180 You'll get the hang of it. 352 00:20:11,900 --> 00:20:12,900 I'm a daddy! 353 00:20:13,540 --> 00:20:15,340 Yes! I gotta call Wesley. 354 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:16,560 I'm way to beat on that. 355 00:20:19,580 --> 00:20:22,820 I got a crack in my tooth and it's way good. 356 00:20:23,660 --> 00:20:24,740 Oh yeah, that sounds horrible. 357 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:26,040 It wasn't pretty. 358 00:20:26,340 --> 00:20:30,040 That's for sure. Nolan and I barely had time to twist before it was all over. 359 00:20:30,340 --> 00:20:32,000 So where did that leave the case? 360 00:20:32,700 --> 00:20:34,280 Still trying to ID the second shooter. 361 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:41,620 Hey, did you know the Armenians pushed the southern front's mess trade deeper 362 00:20:41,620 --> 00:20:42,620 into the valley? 363 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,720 Yep, happened a few months ago. I read every gang report the department puts 364 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,820 out, and I haven't seen anything about that. Yeah, see, those reports only get 365 00:20:49,820 --> 00:20:54,060 you so far. I mean, the best information is usually through word of mouth, which 366 00:20:54,060 --> 00:20:56,760 is great for me because I know people from all over the city. 367 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,260 Well, how can I compete with that when I just got here? It takes time to 368 00:21:01,260 --> 00:21:02,260 cultivate that kind of trust. 369 00:21:02,460 --> 00:21:06,360 True, but, I mean, you'd be shocked by what some of these low-level gang makers 370 00:21:06,360 --> 00:21:07,360 put on social media. 371 00:21:07,860 --> 00:21:10,080 The LA Gang subreddit is a great resource. 372 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,100 Look, I got to stay up anyway. 373 00:21:12,300 --> 00:21:14,200 I've got a 2 a.m. Zoom date with Raj. 374 00:21:14,700 --> 00:21:18,640 Why don't I show you some of my favorite accounts to follow?

Should we crack it now or save it for dinner? My vote is 382 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,600 now. And don't be stingy with the pours. 383 00:21:39,100 --> 00:21:40,340 Everyone clear on the plan? 384 00:21:40,580 --> 00:21:44,780 Oh, yes, yes. James knows. Agree with everything you say and keep the starry 385 00:21:44,780 --> 00:21:47,200 -eyed reformer talk on a minimal. Perfect. 386 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,100 Operation Kill a Dream is a go. Mm-hmm. 387 00:21:51,100 --> 00:21:55,680 He has a point. We complain all the time about undocumented witnesses being too 388 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:56,680 scared to testify. 389 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,160 Instituting a policy that would protect them from deportation, that would be a 390 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,160 game-changer. 391 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,480 I thought we were supposed to be doing little things. 392 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,240 I know, but it's a good idea. 393 00:22:06,460 --> 00:22:10,420 I'm not saying it's not a good idea, but I think we're getting away from the 394 00:22:10,420 --> 00:22:15,040 larger point, which is we'd be opening our lives up to public scrutiny, which 395 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:20,020 would be hard enough for you and me, and I worry what it'll do to the kids. 396 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:21,240 So do I. 397 00:22:22,180 --> 00:22:25,460 But I also want them to grow up knowing that their father is willing to fight 398 00:22:25,460 --> 00:22:28,000 for the rights of everybody, even when it's difficult. 399 00:22:28,220 --> 00:22:29,220 Amen. 400 00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:31,740 Look, you started it. 401 00:22:32,030 --> 00:22:34,670 Think of what I'd be in the position to influence as the DA. 402 00:22:34,950 --> 00:22:40,470 I could end cash bail, expand victim services, emphasize counseling. 403 00:22:40,790 --> 00:22:44,110 Institutional change is always hard. Right, but does that mean that I 404 00:22:44,110 --> 00:22:44,889 shouldn't try? 405 00:22:44,890 --> 00:22:45,890 What about the House? 406 00:22:46,890 --> 00:22:50,250 Yeah, well, we would probably have to wait on that. I mean, optics would... 407 00:22:50,250 --> 00:22:53,630 And you'd be fine letting public perception dictate how we live our 408 00:22:53,630 --> 00:22:55,430 lives? In service of real reform? 409 00:22:58,050 --> 00:22:59,050 Maybe. 410 00:22:59,340 --> 00:23:00,980 Real change requires sacrifice. 411 00:23:02,120 --> 00:23:04,900 But I would not do it at the expense of our family. I would need to know that 412 00:23:04,900 --> 00:23:05,900 you were on board. 413 00:23:06,100 --> 00:23:10,440 100%.

I know, and that is my fault. But all day, 425 00:23:44,370 --> 00:23:47,250 I have not been able to get this idea out of my head. 426 00:23:47,790 --> 00:23:52,370 And Russ stopped by on the way to the airport and gave me his final appeal, 427 00:23:52,570 --> 00:23:53,570 and it made me question. 428 00:23:54,410 --> 00:23:56,970 Why I was so quick to shut it down. 429 00:23:57,250 --> 00:24:01,210 Well... And before you tell me no or give me 100 reasons why it won't work, 430 00:24:01,370 --> 00:24:05,730 all I ask is that you spend some time to explore the idea. 431 00:24:06,010 --> 00:24:09,910 And by that you mean... See what transferring to D.C. police would look 432 00:24:09,910 --> 00:24:13,870 like. Make some calls, ask some questions, kick the tires. 433 00:24:14,110 --> 00:24:17,170 And what if we come to different conclusions? 434 00:24:17,550 --> 00:24:18,910 We abort the mission. 435 00:24:19,210 --> 00:24:20,490 Either we're both in... 436 00:24:20,810 --> 00:24:23,790 We're both out.
