Well, excellent work!

Thank you.

Uh...help.

Oh. Right.

In early September,
our sources in Mexico

identified
a shipment of fentanyl

being driven from Michoacán

across the border
into California.

Rather than stopping it,
we decided to follow the drugs,

use the intel we collected

to arrest
the entire smuggling network.

A controlled delivery. That's
what you used to do undercover.

Yes, Agent Banks and I
worked together on them

on the Narcotics Task Force.

Nyla was the most hardcore UC
I've ever seen.

She could lie to God Himself
and get away with it.

Sgt. Grey: You don't say.

That's surprising, 'cause
she always tells me the truth.

Right, Detective?
Absolutely, sir.

The truck was ambushed in
the desert outside Ocotillo.

We were monitoring
with satellites.

Seven minutes later,
the entire shipment was gone.

And you think
Ripper stole it.

We don't think it.

[ Monitor beeps ]
We know it.

So, why'd you shut us down?

'Cause the drugs
aren't stored

at the location
that you were about to hit.

Nolan: Where are they?

You don't know, which is why
you're talking to us right now.

We've been on Ripper
and his crew for two weeks.

They haven't gone
near the fentanyl.

So, what kind of weight
are we talking?

20 kilos, uncut.

Street value --
roughly $10 million.

That is a morgue full of ODs
in the making.

So, what's the plan
to keep it off the street?

Honestly,
we didn't have one,

till we got wind
of your warrant.

You've given us a way in --
your CI.

We can use her to introduce me
as a straw buyer to Ripper.

Uh, all due respect, sir,

I-I don't think
Bianca's ready for that.

Then you can make her ready.

Every hour that goes by
increases the risk

that those drugs
end up on the street.

Detective Calderon.

We're done
with the canvass.

Neighbors report seeing
a suspicious vehicle

speeding down the street
around 11:00 a.m.

Now, the guy on the corner
identified it as a blue sedan.

Said he's never seen it
in the neighborhood before.

And...?

And the timeline
fits the TOD.

Plus, it's a cul-de-sac.

They don't get a lot of random
traffic driving through here.

That's weak,
Officer Lopez,

even if we didn't already
have a prime suspect.

The husband?

Patrol has responded to
six domestics at this residence

over the past three years.

Then there's the withdrawal slip
I found in the victim's purse.

Mrs. Cook took $100,000 in cash
from their account

first thing this morning.

My guess is
she was getting ready

to leave her abusive husband,
but he found out,

stopped her in her tracks
permanently.

Where's the money?
Don't know yet.

Husband might have hid it,
or the victim did

before she came home
to get the rest of her stuff.

Either way,
we're done here.

I still think
we should follow up on the car.

Are you the detective here,
Officer Lopez?

No, ma'am.
If I need more scut work,
I'll call you.

[ Car door opens, closes ]

Nolan:
You sure you're up for this?
Bianca: Yeah.

Okay, this isn't
just a handoff, Bianca.

you have a buyer for the drugs.

I know. I can do it.

Okay. Prove it.

What?

Now.

Okay.

H-Hey, Ripper. I heard
you scored some fentanyl.

Heard from where?

No, I don't know.

Anyway, I got you a buyer
out of Chicago.

What difference
does it make?

Because Kansas City is where
the DEA set up the fake buyer.

Uh...actually, no.

Bianca's a mess. I think Ripper
will see right through her.

You tell Agent Banks?

Not yet,
but there's more.

Um...uh...

it's become clear to me
that, uh, Bianca feels

that the concern
I've shown for her

means that
I have feelings for her.

Yeah, yeah,
that is a problem.

And I've tried to maintain
boundaries, but it's...

apparent I've failed.

No, no, no.
It's not your fault.

CIs, by definition,
are in crisis.

They've endured
a series of hardships

and made a lot of bad choices
to end up in this station.

Then we come along
and help them back up,

the first sympathetic ear

that some of them
have ever had.

If you think Bianca's
unprepared, you got to pull her.

I can do that?

She's your CI,
which means it's your call,

even as a rookie.

But know this --

Agent Banks will be pissed.

Agent Banks?

Good.
Let's wire her up.

She's not up for this.

Bianca: Yes, I am.

No. You're not.

As Bianca's handler,
it's my decision

whether to put her
in harm's way,

and I can't allow her
to proceed with this operation.

You can't?

I make one phone call, you'll
never put on that uniform again.

So wire her ass up.

No, sir.

And If you pull your head
out of your ass for a minute,

you'll see that I'm right.

If Ripper thinks for one second
this is a setup,

you'll lose your only chance
to intercept those drugs,

and the ODs that will follow --
those will be on your head.
