All language subtitles for S.W.A.T. 4x18 - Veritas Vincint (English)

Previously on S.W.A.T...

The white nationalists

who killed Erika, the Imperial Dukes.

Now, we've already taken
down four of them,

but I can't shake the feeling
that there's more out there.

I went and visited
my mom in hospital today.

Her liver's failing.

She tried to butter me up
to get what she wants.

Which is what?

My liver, apparently.

Or part of it.

What if something goes wrong?

You could lose your job,
or you could die.

When you told me that if you
lost me you'd never recover...

I can't lose you, either.

I mean, a Black suspect comes at me

with something looking like a weapon.

Bam! Bam! Just freed up a prison cot

for someone who
can actually be rehabilitated.

My PBA reps are
gonna tear this case to shreds.

Yeah. They'll put me back on the street.

You have to watch your back
the rest of your career.

The Board of Rights reached a decision

regarding Lee Durham's punishment:

He will not be fired from the LAPD.

Same for the other two,
Gibson and Ellis.

We just sit here while a pack of racists

pick and choose who
they're gonna arrest each day?

What you are talking about
is career suicide.

There's gonna be an article

in the L.A. Times coming out tomorrow.

It'll expose Durham and his cop buddies

for their racist views
and the department's failure

to take appropriate action.

They'll be printing my
name as the source.

Mayor's gonna have your head for this.

I know.

Yesterday marked the
fourth day of protests in Los Angeles.

Black Justice Now has led
this latest protest effort,

sparked by last week's
explosive Times article,

where LAPD SWAT sergeant
Daniel Harrelson Jr.

Outed the department's
flawed disciplinary system,

reigniting tensions between
the police and the community.

You don't have to do that for me.

Trust me, I'm not.

I don't need to hear
any more of it myself.

You still getting flack at work?

People are careful,
but I hear the whispers,

feel the stares.

Not so much from other SWAT
officers, but rank and file.

You know you did the right thing.

Racist cops don't deserve
a badge, so yeah, I do.

I also knew that going to the press

would set off a firestorm. But this...

The anger in this community goes deeper

than one or two incidents.

I grew up listening
to my father's rants about

the way police in L.A. were used

to keep Black neighborhoods in check.

That bitterness is old,
and it runs deep.

Exactly. You speaking out against Durham

and the others, it confirmed

what a lot of folks already believe,

based on their experience
and on history,

not just your words.

Oh, hey. Uh, sorry.

I didn't know you was having
company this early.

It's all good. Nichelle just
stopped by to check on me,

and she brought some coffee.

Hey, Darryl, want to
join us for breakfast?

No, I'm good. Thanks.

D... what's up? Everything okay?

My phone's been
blowing up all day, every day

with this Black Justice Now stuff.

At the garage, all anyone talks
about is the cops doing dirt.

Darryl, you know it's not that simple.

But why shouldn't it be?

You told the truth.
You should be a hero.

And hopefully,
that's how things turn out, eventually.

My dad said no one ever cares enough

to really change this stuff.

Maybe he was right.

Thanks for coming in early.

I got a heads-up.

Lee Durham and his buddies

are being terminated, effective today.

What changed between now
and the first investigation?

You mean besides the publicity?

Board of Rights says

they uncovered new evidence
of conduct unbecoming.

Some formal language about

bringing disrepute to the department.

Guess I'm about to be even less popular

with a lot of cops now.

You knew some of them would
never agree with your decision.

Of course I did, Commander.

But I got to ask... if I got caught

talking about Black power,
jamming up white citizens,

do you think anybody would be this angry

to see me pay a price?

I get your point, but the reality is,

now cops feel like they have
a target on their backs.

Kevin Hilliard.

Back in the day,
LAPD brought southern racists

to our city to patrol the streets,

and Black and brown people been
suffering for it ever since.

Well, these cops want to bash
our heads in the here and now?

Then be on notice.
We'll defend ourselves,

whatever we got to do.

This thing could escalate fast.

I also heard from the chief.

So there's some kind of
discipline coming your way soon

for going outside chain of command.

Was it worth it?

- Hey.
- Hey.

You do your final check-in
with the doctors?

I'm getting admitted
to the hospital tomorrow.

Transplant surgery's the next day.

Morning.

Wow. Really?

If that shoulder was any colder,
we'd all be freezing.

Eh, just ignore it.

People need some time to let it all go.

You taped Durham and his
pals because they deserve it.

We don't need their racist
views patrolling the streets.

And if Hondo going
to the press means bad cops

get the boot, I'm good with it.

But the attitude you and Hondo
are catching...

it's not cool.

You guys did the right thing, Deac.

Well, I appreciate that.

Everyone's just wound up.

I got a buddy at Hollywood
station, and he said that

the threats made by Black Justice Now

has the officers over there all on edge.

Yeah, everyone's got an opinion on this.

- See you later.
- Bye.

Oh, what's up with the suit?

Ooh, you're busted.

- Better tell 'em.
- Hold on.

Nice suit, happy fianc�e...

You wouldn't by any chance
be about to elope now,

would you, lover boy?

That explains the last-minute,

uh, vacation request.

Okay, okay, enough with
the interrogation.

I was gonna tell you guys.

Tell us what? That you were
gonna get married without us?

It's just a civil ceremony

down at the courthouse after shift.

You're all still invited to the big bash

when we can nail down a venue.

Hey, we get it. You and
Bonnie have had to postpone

your wedding how many times?

You guys have waited long enough
for your big day.

And we finally decided that
being married is more important

than how we get married.

And we wanted to fly off
to Bali tomorrow

as an official couple.

So it's not just a vacation
but a bona fide honeymoon.

Well, that sounds perfect, actually.

It's about time we had some
good news around here.

Is that what I think it is?

Memorial plaque for Erika.

It's gonna be unveiled
at a ceremony next week.

You and I will be in Germany
doing T.L.I. training.

I tried to push our flight to next week,

but the schedule...

It's all good.
I've already said my good-byes.

It's nice no one's forgotten her.

Yeah, no one ever will.

Hey, buddy, take that outside.

Are you serious?

Is this yours? That ain't mine.

Somebody else left it.

Bomb!

Get out, now! Everyone out!

If not for some
sharp eyes and quick thinking,

this could've been a whole lot worse.

We're lucky nobody died.

Sergeant Plumb's in serious condition,

but yeah, we caught a break this time.

You think there's more to come?

Chief's concerned it's
only the beginning.

Patrol's being deployed
to set up a perimeter

at every station.

Bomb squad's in the process

of clearing all LAPD buildings.

The Mayor's speed dial finger's

gonna need a splint after this.

I'm not surprised. LAPD's under attack.

Whole world's watching
to see what we do.

What we're gonna do is find our bomber

and anyone else responsible.

I expedited the security
footage download from inside.

We may have something.

This is time-stamped

shortly before the explosion.

- Wait, I know that jacket.
- I bet you do.

It's Kevin Hilliard's trademark.

Kevin's been all over the TV

talking big about retaliation.

I didn't think he'd take the next step.

Hondo, this isn't on you.

I lit a fuse by going to the press,

and Kevin is the result.

You can't control
people's worst impulses.

Nobody could've predicted
Kevin and his group

were gonna declare war on the LAPD.

Probably thought the bomb
would take out security cameras,

help cover his tracks better.

Tech pulled traffic cam
images of cars in the area

right before and after the bombing.

There. Top right corner.
Late model Explorer.

I drove past one of Kevin's events

a few days ago, and I saw him
hop in an Explorer

that looked just like that.

Well, sounds like probable cause.

- Let's get a warrant and bring him in.
- No, hold up.

We don't have a clear image
of Kevin on video.

If we're gonna haul him in, we got to be

real smart about how we do it.

Well, I'm not sure we
have time for niceties.

Commander, this city is
on a razor's edge.

Kevin may be a radical to the LAPD,

but in his hood, he is a leader.

If we roll in showing force,
and we are not 100% sure,

it could make things worse
for the community and for us.

All right. I'll trust your judgment,

but one way or another,
we're bringing his ass in.

According to social media,
Kevin's starting up a livestream

- near his block in about 30 minutes.
- All right, good.

That gives us an opportunity
with him out in the open.

I'll game-plan with the team
and get it done.

I know. I'll keep you posted on my end.

I love you, too.

So, how did Bonnie take it?

She gets it. With everything going on,

courthouses canceled all
nonessential business.

I'd say your wedding is
pretty essential to Bonnie.

Yeah, well, the city doesn't agree.

I'm gonna buzz my mom with the bad news,

tell her the wedding's off.

It sucks, for both of them.

See? Relationships are never easy,

even when people are
perfect for each other.

Is that you, admitting
we're perfect for each other?

You mean except for the
whole "no fraternizing

between team members" thing?

Which is why we need...
to talk about us,

preferably before you get on a plane

and fly away for the summer.

You got to give it up.
Our situation's impossible.

I'm not ready to concede
that point. Not yet.

We have a bombing suspect to catch.

You're dodging the issue.

Yes, I am. So move. Now.

Okay.

We're all in position, Hondo.

All right. Backup is around the block,

ready to roll if needed.
Tell me what you see.

We've got eyes on Kevin.

He started his livestream.

The LAPD has proven

that they do not care
about the sanctity of our lives!

Lots of strong words about the police.

He's got followers eating out
of the palm of his hand.

Dude may have tried to murder
a station full of cops.

Hate thinking his followers
might cheer that on, too.

His sidekick has gang ink.

20th Street Hammers.

This isn't their spot.

But if Kevin has them for muscle,

he must be prepping for a bigger fight.

Let's wait 'till he's on the move,

make the approach before
Kevin gets back to his block.

When your immediate reaction
to racist cops is to transfer...

You guys seeing this?

Yeah. The vehicle matches

the one seen leaving the bombing.

Clear. So here's ours.

Black Justice Now.

Black... Justice... Now!

We're on.

Kevin Hilliard,
step out of the vehicle! LAPD!

Step out of the vehicle now!

Hands above your head!

Walk backwards towards me.

Looky, looky here.

Another day, another bogus LAPD stop.

Walk backwards towards me.

Damn.

Passenger, step out of the vehicle,

hands in the air
and walk backwards towards me.

Y'all, we put this on the Internet.

Yeah, right. So these pigs just
pulled us over

for leaving out of a park.

So y'all help me keep an eye on 'em.

What you're gonna lie
and say I did this time?

That's far enough.

We have a warrant for your arrest.

Put your hands behind your back.

Yeah. I got it.

Hey, everyone! Look here!

I am going peacefully
with these officers.

No resistance. You see?

If I end up with a bullet
in the back of my head,

- you'll know why and who.
- Get in the car.

Let's you and me talk straight.

Sergeant Harrelson,

the dude who dialed 911
on his own department.

Props to you!

So why you sweating me?

We're fighting the same damn fight.

I do my thing
by trying to keep people safe,

not by targeting innocents
and taking lives.

A few bad cops doesn't give you
the green light

to bomb a police station.

Is that what you got me in here for?

I did not blow up no police station.

Kevin,

now is when you tell us

if you and your group
are targeting more cops.

Because if the next bomb
kills someone...

I told you, I don't know
anything about no damn bomb.

You want to rethink that answer?

It's not me.

I get why you think that's me,
but I'm not dumb enough

to wear my regular jacket
and drive my own car

to blow up a police station.

Only bombs I use is truth bombs.

Besides, you should know where I was.

Cops been following me for weeks.

What are you talking about?

You weren't a person of
interest to us until today.

You sure... brother?

You just exposed a bad apple
in your own house.

Cops love to throw their weight around.

Intimidation, frame-ups.

Hell, y'all probably
framing me right now.

- No one's framing you here, Kevin.
- Well,

the police are following me.

Been tailing me for weeks
in a metallic blue sedan.

You're wrong. It's not us.

Then who the hell is it?

You see this?

The boys in blue just snatched
up our Black messiah.

It's time they burn.

So y'all show up for war, you hear me?

What the hell is that?

It's a viral video.
Kevin's supporters are all over

social media, calling for a mass
protest downtown later today.

From the sound of it,
they're not showing up

just to shout slogans.

And now they're working with
the Hammers, there's a chance

that armed gang members will be mixed in

with the regular protesters.

I'll alert the chief.

Wait a second.

That car... metallic blue sedan.

Kevin claims he's had a tail lately,
described

exactly that.

You think he's telling the truth?

I think there's more
going on here than we're seeing.

- Luca...
- I'll work the partial,

see if I can narrow
down a list of owners.

City feels heavy today.

Lot of people looking
over their shoulders,

not sure who to trust.

Does that include you?

This morning, Chris told me that she...

she doesn't think the system's
designed to get real justice.

I always believed it was.

And now, with everything, it's just...

it's got me thinking twice.

We see something wrong,
we say something,

that should be enough.

Should get fixed.

And then it doesn't.

Deacon, you did everything right.

Durham got a slap on the wrist.

Until you went to the press,
and now we're both pariahs.

Listen, man, I don't expect you
to agree with me going public,

and I truly am sorry that
there's blowback on you now.

I just felt like I had no other choice.

No, I know. I know.

You know, according to Hicks,

the chief has disciplinary
action coming my way.

Are you worried?

I'm on my own, man.

The board's pissed at me;
The union, too, so...

whatever happens, I'll deal with it.

You know that training thing
that we talked about?

Mm-hmm.

Well, I want you to know
that I've signed up

to mentor the new class
of LAPD recruits.

Hopefully, get 'em on
the right track from day one.

Well, they couldn't have
a better role model.

Hey.

I struck paydirt. DMV search
found 43 partial matches

in L.A. County, but only one
was on a metallic blue sedan.

Registered owner... John Bridger.

- Any connections to Kevin?
- Nothing directly.

But he's racked up a few
assault charges, and get this.

Disturbing the peace

for counterprotesting
Black Justice Now events.

- Counterprotesting?
- Yeah.

So he's not Kevin's biggest fan.

Maybe Bridger's stalking him.

Everything we've looked at
so far has told a story

of Kevin and his group versus the LAPD.

It just feels like a piece is missing.

Maybe Bridger is the key
to fill in the gaps.

All right, texting you
his last known address.

- Gunfire.
- Take cover.

Street, Tan,

take the three-side.

Chris, you're on the one-side with me.

LAPD! Drop the weapon!

Going hands on.

30-David. Suspect down.

He was headed towards that garage.

Let's clear it.

This is a red Explorer.

Check it out.

Got a dead Kevin Hilliard look-alike.

Looks like fresh gunshot wounds.

He's dressed just like Kevin.

This ride is just like Kevin's.

Bridger must have used him
as a double for the bombing,

and then killed him.

Hey, come see this.

This stuff matches the materials
for the bomb at the 27th.

Isn't that the park
where Kevin holds his events?

He's got a list of beat assignments.

Bridger must have been tracking
patrol routes of the area.

Photos of the Academy, Snicks Diner.

Every cop in town eats there.

That igloo... I've seen that before.

It was on the shooting gallery

in the compound where Erika was killed.

It's one of the
Imperial Dukes' crazy symbols.

If Bridger's one of them...

Surveillance on police, the bomb,

framing Kevin.

This is all the Imperial Dukes.

They're back.

The chief's sending out word
that Kevin's no longer a suspect

for the 27th Division bombing.

It might be too late, sir.

That false flag by the Imperial Dukes...

It's already got people looking

at Kevin and his group as terrorists.

At the same time, the Dukes have
put cops everywhere on edge,

and we don't know how many more
attacks they have in the works.

Chief ordered the Academy to evacuate

until Bomb Squad finishes a sweep.

And we're sending alerts
to every cop on patrol

to be extra vigilant
with safety protocols.

This group is methodical.

By bombing the 27th, they...
they redirected patrol routes,

the allocation of manpower.

They could be targeting cops
anywhere in the city.

The Imperial Dukes went from attacks

on individuals to crowds.

After they killed Erika, we know
dead cops don't bother them.

They're chaos agents trying
to tear down the system,

starting with us, and
if they open racial wounds, too,

all the better for them.

Luca's dialed in with the feds
running everything on Bridger.

Which means we may finally be able

to bring down the last
Imperial Dukes cell in L.A.

That's not our only worry.
Deac and I were talking.

We got to do something to lower
the temperature in this city.

Commander, tensions are so high,

even the best cop might see a
peaceful protest as an attack,

even if that's not the intent.

If there's something we can do...

I get it. Go.

Don't need no damn police protection.

Kevin, I'm trying to make you
understand the stakes here.

My whole life is about stakes.

You can't explain anything to me.

All right, then, can I make an ask?

And I know how this is gonna sound.

I need you to tell
your followers to stay home

and not go to the protest.

After they framed me?

Those white power dudes
are trying to take us down,

and you're telling us
to take our ball and stay home?

We don't protest, they win.

Neither one of us wants
a bunch of white nationalists

to get a win today.

Look, I know it's hard
for you to trust us.

It wouldn't be if the LAPD were
occasionally on our side, man.

Kevin, a lot of us are-are...
are working to make changes.

And I know you're fighting
for what you think is right,

but doing the right thing, that
can put a target on your back.

- Sergeant Harrelson still stood up.
- He did.

He wasn't alone.

But everything that we're doing
to make things better,

that gets blown to hell
if this city goes up in flames.

Nichelle.

- Hey.
- Hey.

I need to talk with you about something.

- Sure. What's going on?
- That protest

going on downtown, we got
to stop people from going.

We've already put out an alert, but...

People won't listen to the police.

That's what the problem
is, ain't it? After all,

it's the same LAPD
that jammed Kevin Hilliard up.

Kevin got framed
because the Imperial Dukes

want to blame a Black activist
for their crime.

The Imperial Dukes were behind
the bombing earlier today?

Yeah.

But even though we can prove that,

it won't take more than one
bad moment between a protester

and a cop feeling targeted
for things to pop off.

Now, we've asked Kevin to warn
folks away from the protest,

help keep things
from getting out of hand,

but we could still use some more help.

I'll make some calls.

I see you looking at me.

Leroy, Kevin hired the Hammers
for protection.

Them being at that protest

is gonna make it harder
to keep everyone safe.

You mean them being there

might piss off trigger-happy cops?

All you've ever done
is criticize my past.

But now when it's convenient,
here you come.

No one you or I

care about needs to get hurt, Leroy.

I thought you was gonna fix
all these problems

between Black and blue. Remember that?

Yeah, I guess not.

Nah, you got to clean up
your own mess, bro.

Look, I've heard everybody
crap on cops the past few days.

And I'm not gonna lie.
The reasons make sense.

But a cop also did help save my life.

Hondo chose to help you, Darryl.

- We don't owe him a damn thing.
- Okay,

but it's not about that.

Look, I get you guys are not
tight like brothers anymore,

but he's out here
trying to help other people.

Why can't we?

New units are sweet.

A lot less bulky.

You know, we don't have to just talk

about new equipment.

It's not breaking any rules
to talk about our situation.

- But we both agree the rules matter.
- Which is why

I could transfer to another
department. We'd be golden.

I can't let you do that.
For me, it's worth doing.

Losing SWAT?

This team?

If it means I get to be with you.

We can't start a relationship
under that kind of pressure.

That's crazy. We'd probably
break up in a month.

Then where would you be?

So you're open
to at least giving it a shot.

I wish this was all as easy
as you want to make it.

Look,

we've tried ignoring our feelings.

We've tried moving on.

This thing is real.

Always has been.

That's as simple as it gets.

Except it isn't, because...

...I have to think about my career

in a way that you don't.

That's real, too.

Luca, I got your text.
What do you got for me?

Look, I looked at the stuff
from Bridger's garage.

Guy was a fan
of headbanger music festivals.

White nationalists
use them to recruit new talent.

Bridger was sent a ticket

off a group-sharing app last month.

Tickets are sent digitally
via cell numbers.

Yeah, and I got three of 'em.

Ran their numbers against
local ISP accounts

and found their user profiles.

These two are Don Fairburn
and Tripp Rathman,

and, according to the remote log-ins

they used to communicate,
this is Marc Stargher.

He spearheaded the meetups.

Stargher was a VP at a local think tank.

Fired three years ago after he stole

and manipulated company data on crime,

lying that it proved his theories

on minority group behavior
and white supremacy.

I think we finally found our shot caller

behind all the Imperial Dukes.
Nice work, Luca.

Background in tech.
He could have easily facilitated

the Imperial Dukes'
covert online activity.

Yep. And his specialty at work?

Public crisis response and planning.

So Stargher's familiar
with LAPD procedure.

- He knows our moves.
- Which means

he knew after the 27th Division bombing

we'd go on tactical alert,

placing every available
cop on the street,

making them all potential targets.

Bam. Got their last known addresses.

I'll update the chief.
Tell Hondo to tell the team

to gear up. I want 'em moving ASAP!

Laser sentry disabled.

Dropping in.

Give me two.

Whoa, whoa, hold up. Another booby trap.

Pretty sure this is the power lead.

Clear.

- We good?
- Yeah.

20-David to Command. Stargher's
place is clear. No sign of him.

50- and 80-Squads hit the other
two last known addresses.

No Imperial Dukes were home.

Which means they're probably
already on their way

- to their next target.
- Hey.

This is some sort of 3D map

of 1st and Broadway.

1st and Broadway's the site of
the Black Justice Now protest.

Hey, I got receipts here
from Tanner Tactical.

That's the uniform wholesaler LAPD uses.

If they're dressed as cops,

they can walk right up to their targets.

They're not gonna attack cops.
They're gonna impersonate

police officers
and attack the protesters.

- What do we want?
- Justice!

When do we want it?

Now!

If someone

in that crowd fires back at police,

the Imperial Dukes can
finally trigger their race war.

Protest starts in 20 minutes.

Protesters are already
showing up. Cops on the ground

say hundreds more are inbound.

- What do you got?
- Okay, Chief's orders

were to keep snipers away
from that intersection.

We think Stargher
may have counted on that.

I noticed there were
small, random hash marks

on the butcher paper of Stargher's map.

Looks like they mapped out
shooting trajectories.

The Dukes might have sniper
perches in these buildings.

We've sent these images
to all units in the intersection.

The protest starts in ten minutes.

If we use a stealth
approach, maybe 20-Squad

can get to the Dukes before
they launch their plan.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Justice!
- When do we want it?

Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

20-David to all D-Team,

work your way up floor by floor.

Clear the perches
overlooking the street.

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

30-David to Command,

20-David and I are making entry
to the northwest building.

71-David, we've made entry.

Working our way to the outer corner

on the northeast building.

Roger. 24-David's on the move
on the southeast.

Psst.

Justice!

- That's right!
- Now!

- LAPD!
- Don't move!

Going hands on. On your stomach!

Hands behind your back! 26-David,

one Duke in custody

on the southwest corner.

It's getting rowdy in the street.

We better get down there.

Justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

- When do we want it?
- Now!

- What do we want?
- Justice!

When do we want it?

Pig!

- LAPD! On the ground!
- Do it now!

On your stomach.

Hands behind your back.

25-David, another Duke
in custody at the northeast.

Flashbang hit the crowd.

It's getting tense down there.
I see the Hammers moving in.

Stop!

Rocker's team cleared
the fourth building. It's empty.

No sign of the last suspect,
Stargher, there.

Then he's ours.

Status?

20-David to all units. Be advised,

our suspect is on the ground,
impersonating a police officer.

No visual, Hondo. Crowd's too big.

Hammers. Young bloods.

Leroy, what you doing out here, man?

Trying to save your asses.
You're being played.

Only ones getting played is these cops

we about to bust up on.

Those cops, they may not be friends,

but today, they ain't your enemies.

A bunch of racists framed Kevin

to set this city on fire. Set a trap

for you to walk into.

And you being out here,

that's gonna give them
exactly what they want:

War.

- Our people are getting attacked, man.
- Trust me,

this ain't the place
for you to be today.

Man, you tripping or what?

Black Justice Now!

Black Justice Now!

You want to find out?

Deac. Wait a minute.

Black Justice Now!

Black Justice Now! Black Justice
Now! Black Justice Now!

Black Justice Now!

Hey, everyone, I appreciate

you coming out to show your support.

Kevin!

Get down! You're-you're
too exposed up there.

I got this. Go!

Everyone, please just listen to me.

Please, just go home. Just go home.

Get out of here! Go... home!

Stargher hasn't gotten the
protesters to attack the cops.

Which means his other option is
get the cops to attack them.

Go home, everyone!

Bomb detonation at
our location. Civilians down.

One suspect still at large
in a police uniform.

Wait a minute. Hold your fire!
Too many civilians!

Suspect on a red
Ducati turning up Broadway!

Hey! Sorry. I need to borrow your bike.

Yo. Yo, you even know
how to ride one of these?

26-David in pursuit.

Copy. 26-David in pursuit.

All available units respond.

On Fifth heading towards Grand.

Stay with him, Street. We're rolling.

He's headed into oncoming cars
on Fourth.

20-Squad, call your locations.

24-David coming up Second.

25-David's on Fifth Street.

30-David northbound on Olive.

This guy's flying!
We got to get him off the road!

We're headed onto the lower grid
on Fourth Street.

We're almost there.

Right on top of you, Street.
Trying to find my way down.

Hondo, maybe we can corner him
in the tunnels.

- Take him down safely.
- All right, I'm on it.

Chris, take the Second Street
tunnel. Tan, get Olive.

Deacon, you're on Hill. Box him in.

- Got it.
- Copy that.

- I'm headed down.
- I'm almost with you, Street.

Everyone, loop around the
park. Keep him off the freeways.

Oh. Oh!

Oh, my God!

You're done. All this is done.

Go for it.

You should have the honor, Chris.

Hey, Tan, there you are. You
got to hustle. Your ride's here.

What ride?

Look, I got a family friend
who's a judge.

Gave him a buzz.
He can marry you and Bonnie

if you make it to the
Pasadena courthouse by 6:00.

Bonnie's already on her way there.

You guys, I'm not making it

to Pasadena in 14 minutes.

Yeah, we thought about that, too.

Are you kidding me?

Guys... thank you.

Seriously. Thank you.

Come on. Time's a-wasting. Let's go.

What are you doing?

Hey, you're gonna need a witness, right?

Leroy, listen, man.

Hey... Darryl was
worried about you, man.

I can't have my son worrying, right?

Look, I know you guys got this beef.

I say something to one of you,

and you think I'm siding with the other,

but I'm not.

- I'm an adult now.
- You're my son.

I'll always be your son.

And, Hondo, you helped save my life.

Helped me turn everything around.

You both got me here, but I can't live

stuck in the middle of y'all.

I gotta do me.

Hmm.

Wow.

How about that?

That's a grown-ass man
right there, if you ask me.

Stubborn.

Like his old man.

Who you calling old?

We did good.

Yeah.

I ain't too proud to admit that...

I'm damn thankful
for your help with him.

I never wanted thanks, Leroy.

Because you're stubborn.

Like me.

So...

...we good?

We're good.

I'm going to postpone leaving for T.L.I.

I don't think I can go to Germany

until you're out of surgery
and I know you're okay.

Chris, the T.L.I. dates are firm.

If they're mad I have to come late,

then I don't need to go.

Didn't you just tell me earlier

you have to be careful with your career?

Do you want me to care
what happens to you or not?

I... I'm gonna be fine, okay?

The doctor promises full
recovery, almost definitely.

And you worked for months
to earn that ticket to Germany.

You cannot blow that off now.

Even for something as great as me.

We still don't have a solution
to our problem.

So we'll just keep talking.

We're two highly skilled police officers

with extensive training in negotiations.

We'll figure it out.

Okay.

Okay.

Call me after the surgery.

The second I wake up.

I spent my whole life feeling
threatened by those uniforms.

But today, I saw something different.

It doesn't fix the past...

but maybe...
maybe it's a place to start.

I met with the chief.

When do I go before the board?

Well, they don't want to
give you the satisfaction,

or the platform.

LAPD feels like you pushed
them into a corner, so...

they want to return the favor.

You're being demoted
from 20-Squad leader.

They want to force me to quit

so they can keep their hands clean.

Wow.

I ain't gonna lie, I did not
see that one coming.

Yeah.

But I probably should have.

The department made me 20-Squad leader

so they could save face.

I'm gonna lose it now
for the same reason.

Yeah.

Look, um...

Luca, Chris and Tan are all
heading out of the country,

and Street's on medical leave,

and Deacon wants to spend
more time with his cadets,

so if you want to
take some time to decide

what you want to do...

...just know two things.

One, I'm on your side.

And two, you helped save this city.

Remember that when you choose.
