Lucy:
What's Metro doing here?

Metro would be
a good fit for Tim.

There's an opening
in Metro.

Lieutenant Pine just called me,
and I'm going over.

That's great.

Monica.
What are you doing here?

Elijah Stone is my client.

Del Monte:
Elijah's attorney?

We used to be engaged.

Hi.
I'm his mother.

Nolan: The boxes?

Your mother sold me
snake oil?

This is my boss' wife.

Do you have any idea what this
could do to my career?

Goodbye.

Nolan: [ In distance ]
No. You said that already.

And I already
explained it to you.

That's ridiculous.

No. Absolutely not.

No. I'm done.

No --

I am done.

Your mom?

How'd you know?
[ Sighs ]

Your shoulders
are touching your ears.

What's the latest?

She is, uh, devastated

that she hasn't been
invited to the wedding.

Did you tell her we're
not doing a big thing?

We literally have
two guests.

Explained all that.
Doesn't matter.

Still a knife
through her heart.

Look, if it helps,
I don't mind inviting her.

No. No way. No. It's...

It's not even
about the wedding.

She wants me to pay her
not to come -- $10,000.

What?
I know.

Don't worry.
She is not coming.

I will not let her
ruin our wedding.

Mm.

[ Exhales softly ]

Oh. [ Chuckles ]

♪♪

Did I miss it?

It's cute.
[ Chuckles ]

Why are you up so early?

I was gonna get a photo
of your reaction.

There's a Metro
training today.

As the newbie, it's my job

to, uh, haul in the gear
and the ammo.

Yeah, the newbie.

The boot.

I'm a sergeant.
Mnh-mnh.

You're still a boot
in my book.

[ Door opens ]
Oh. Hey.

Are you
just getting home?

Must've been
a heck of a party.

Yeah. Rager.

Mm.

Did I interrupt something?

No. No,
I-I was just heading out.

Uh, can't be late
on my first day.

Mm-hmm.

Bye.
Hey.

You're gonna
be great today.

Knock 'em dead.

Bye.

Good morning.

[ Scoffs ] Whatever.
He is!

Well, of course you'd say that.
Because it's the truth.

Like you've ever
cared about the truth.

Okay, that's enough.

I'd ask where this animosity
is coming from,

but I have an idea.

Okay, this has nothing
to do with our past

and everything to do
with the law.

Let's focus on the law,
then, shall we?

You're presenting
a motion to exclude.

Yes, Your Honor.

You disagree.

Mr. Parker is an eyewitness
to this crime.

He picked the shooter
out of a lineup.

His testimony is essential
to this case.

Ms. Stevens.

You know as well as anyone
eyewitness testimony is flawed,

and this witness
had a gun pointed at him.

High levels of stress
negatively impact memory.

Okay, but any eyewitness
to a crime

has experienced
high levels of stress.

Are we throwing out
the very notion of witnesses?

Do not put words
in my mouth.

Okay.
[ Clears throat ]

I'm inclined to side with Monica
on this one.

I'm excluding
his testimony.

Wha-- On -- On what grounds?
That's absurd.

Watch yourself.

I'm sorry.

I meant no disrespect.
Um...

I'm gonna need a few minutes
to confer with my team.

Good idea.

[ Door opens ]

Thank you.

Metro Cop: [ Through headset ]
Okay, you have an active
shooter still at large.

Your job is to locate the
suspect and stop the threat.

Mad Dog: Bang. You're dead.
You're telegraphing.

You're dead. Bang. Dead.

You're dead. Dead.
Bang. Dead.

Bradford, this isn't patrol.
This is Metro.

Major crimes, terrorism,
barricades, hostages.

We are an elite unit.

Your form's got to be
perfect, man.

Alright.
Let's take 10.

[ Sighs ] What, there's only
one way to clear a room?

That's news to me,

'cause I've actually done this
a million times successfully.

Don't worry.
Happens to everyone.

Metro takes
some getting used to.

You'll get it.

Harper: That is the dumbest
ruling I've ever heard.

Yeah, I agree.

But we're gonna
have to make this case

without Parker's testimony.

Do you really think
the jury will convict without?

No. I'm filing
for a continuance.

My team needs to regroup.

Well, I guess
I'm not testifying today.

Oh, it's just as well.

I was gonna have to
hand this one over to you.

Well, there's nothing
like a baby to win over a jury.

Oh, well, we're gonna need
all the help we can get

without that testimony.

Didn't something similar happen
in one of Lopez's cases?

Just like last month.

I'm never assigned to anything
she's investigated.

I remember she was pissed.

She handed your office
a perfect case.

Practically had a bow on it,
and then it fell apart in trial.

It was the same judge.

Well, judges can be fickle.

It's hard to predict
how they'll rule.

But Rivas has been solid
until recently.

True.

You know, I clerked for him
back when I was starting out.

Monica and I both did.

Mind like a scalpel.

Yeah, but he is
getting older.

I mean, if he's
starting to slip,

someone should talk to him
about retiring.

I mean,
maybe a former clerk

who knows how
to cushion the blow.

[ Leah crying ]

Oh. Sorry.

Can't stop,
not even for a second.

It's okay.
I've literally been there.

You go.
I'll deal with Rivas.

Thank you.
Yeah.

[ Leah crying ]
Yes, well, what is going on?

Hm.
[ Elevator bell dings ]

Oh! Hey. I just heard
of a new place to try for lunch.

It's Chinese-
Ukrainian fusion.

Is it cheap?

No. But --
What? You're rich.

No, my parents are rich, okay?

And I'm not gonna take
any more of their money.

Since when?

Since my mom
showed me a prototype

of a new Aaron Thorsen
action figure.

Wha-- That sounds awesome.
No, look, I worked hard

to have people
take me seriously as a cop.

I'm not gonna undermine it
for a couple million dollars.

Hold on. I'm sorry.

A couple million?
Yeah.

Dude, if you're
not gonna do it, I will.

Lucy Chen, Fist of Justice.

What are you doing?
Hi.

I'm, uh -- I'm working

Oh. What's on your head?

You have a -- You have
a little something on your head.

Uh, no.

take too long to move in.

No.

She's your mom.

I mean, how can you not have
your mom at your wedding?

She's a narcissist
and a borderline con woman.

She tried to fleece
Sergeant Grey.
Okay, that's not good.

And not even close
to the worst thing she's done.

Yeah,
but she's your mom.

Look, my mom's challenging,

but I can't imagine
getting married without her.

Which probably means

I'll have to get married
in her living room.

[ Chuckles ] Look,
I run into this all the time.

You have
a fundamentally good mom,

so of course
you can't imagine my situation.

You're right.

I don't know what you've
dealt with. I shouldn't judge.

Ace: I will.

She's your mother.

She gave you life, man.

We caught you trying to pawn
your mother's jewelry

to buy drugs.
You don't get an opinion.

Aaron: Seriously, how do you
live on a cop's salary?

It's not that bad.
I mean, we make good money.

My paycheck just evaporates.

I mean, my dry-cleaning bill
alone is $500 a week.

How are we supposed
to afford that?

We're not.

W-What are you dry-cleaning?
Your jeans?

Everything.

Aaron...

do you know
how to do your laundry?

Laundry ruins your clothes.

Dry cleaning is the most
cost-effective in the long run.

What -- Who --
Where did you hear that?

My mom.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Hey, what's up?

I'm at my babysitting job,
and things are weird.

Cosmo says when he woke up,
both of his parents were gone,

and now no one's
answering their phone.

Okay.
We'll be right there.

[ Cellphone clicks ]

Thanks for coming.

Lucy: Yeah, of course.

Cosmo's in here.

These are the cops
I was telling you about.

Hi.

You good?

How's the cereal?

Mm, it's cereal.

Hey, I offered you
unicorn cloud bread.

You're the one
who wanted Wheetie Bran.

Weirdo.

Can I play on the Switch?

Go ahead.

How's he doing?

He hasn't said much.

I know he's scared. He just
doesn't want to admit it.

Did you notice any signs of
forced entry when you got here?

No. I-I used my key
to get in.

I looked around for a little.
Everything seems normal.

No broken windows
or anything.

How well
do you know the family?

I've been working here
for six months.

The dad's a little aloof.
He works a lot.

Some investment thing.

The mom's around more.

She runs a non-profit.

Alright, well, we'll check
with their employers.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Mr. Laetner.
I've been calling you.

You called the police.

Sorry, uh, yeah, um...

I couldn't find anyone.
I was scared.

I'm so sorry.
It's all been so crazy.

We had a family emergency.
My wife had to fly home

to deal with an aunt
who had a heart attack.

I should have told you.
It...completely slipped my mind.

Where did you say
your wife was?

Cincinnati.

Uh, she probably forgot
her phone charger. Typical.

This is all
a-a big misunderstanding.

And where were you?
Your son woke up alone.

I...took her
to the airport.

I thought I could get back
before he woke up.

Is he okay?

He's fine.
He's in his room.

I'll go talk to him.

I'm so sorry
you came out for nothing.

Well, we need to talk to your
wife to, uh, verify she's okay.

It's protocol.

You understand, right?
Right.

Um, I'll get you
her aunt's number.

I know I have it somewhere.

Here.

Just give us her full name
and approximate age,

and we'll find it.

Of course.
[ Chuckles ]

Should I take Cosmo
to school?

You know what? He's missed
half the day already.

Can you stay
and look after him?

No problem.
Great.

Again, I'm so sorry
we wasted your time.

I'll see you later.

You buying that?

Not a word.

We should loop in
the detectives.

Hey. I'm taking a poll.

How old were you when you did
your first load of laundry?

Bailey: Ooh. No idea.

I was living at home, though,
so...14?

Okay, Aaron's answer was never.
He was never years old.

What?

He doesn't know how.

[ Chuckles ] I don't know
why I should be so shocked.

What about you?

6. I learned early
my mom wasn't gonna do it.

Also not shocking.

Alright, well,
I got to go, babe.

I'll see you later at lunch.

Yeah, wouldn't miss it.

[ Cellphone clicks ]

It is a good thing
you wore a helmet.

I think you're gonna be fine.

Hey. You hurt?

I'm fine. My partner
just went into surgery.

Who shoots at an ambulance?

I don't know.
I saw a red sedan speeding off.

I wish I could be more helpful.
I'm sorry.

I mean, don't apologize.
You jumped in front

and hit the brakes.
That's badass.

Badass or bad luck?

This is the second partner
I've sent into the hospital.

Well, if you really think
you have bad luck,

I know a great curandera.
She'll cleanse it right out.

I might take you up on that.

Just got word
from the hospital.

Your partner and the patient
are gonna be okay.

[ Sighing ]
Oh, good. Thank you.

They'll have
police escorts

until we figure out
who the target was.

Think they were shooting
at the patient?

It could have just been
a random drive-by. I don't know.

Well, we've got
officers canvassing,

looking for
security footage.

We'll know more soon.

So, when you get done here,
check in with Sergeant Hadley.

She'll be
coordinating the grid.

On it.

I don't suppose you'll be
taking the rest of the day off?

Because I got shot at?

Silly question.
Sorry I asked.

You'll call me
if you need anything?

Thank you. I will.

What's so important you can't
even let me get to my office?

We think Judge Rivas
is on the take.

That's a big accusation.

I know. But I also know him.
I know how his mind works.

And his rulings
have been inconsistent

over the past three months.
And it's not random.

They're all tied and connected
to Monica and her firm.

He overwhelmingly
rules in her favor.

So you think she's bribing the
judge to protect Elijah's guys?

With Elijah
writing the checks,

she's under tremendous pressure
to bring results.

I wouldn't put it past her
to bribe a judge.

I'll try to get a warrant
to search his financial records.

Be careful.
Judges look after each other.

You have to approach
someone you trust.

Judge Zuckerman and I
go way back.

She will not warn Rivas.

But will she openly
go against another judge?

There's only one way
to find out.

If Rivas is corrupt,

it calls all his cases
into question.

Even the ones
he didn't throw.

No telling how many criminals
could go free.

I know.

Keep me posted.

Lucy:
How much do you spend on food?

I'm not sure,
but I think I still have

all my takeout receipts.

Okay.
How much do you order in?

You know, I feel like
there's a right answer,

but I don't have an idea
what it is.

Cooking is a lot more
cost-effective, but --

You do know
how to cook, right?

Oh, yeah.
I make the perfect martini.

Lopez: You were right
about Sonia Laetner.

She wasn't on
any flight manifest,

and none of her family in Ohio
has heard from her.

What about her cellphone?

It last pinged near their house,
then went dead.

We're gonna find her body
in Griffith Park, aren't we?

Bring her husband in.
I want to talk to him.
Okay.

Lopez: Mr. Laetner,
if your wife, Sonia, is in Ohio,

do you have any idea why
her car was parked in Hollywood

with her phone and purse
still inside?

Deon: I don't know.

See, in my line of work,

when a woman takes a last-minute
trip with no money,

9 times out of 10, her husband's
got something to do with it.

So where's Sonia?

I don't know.

I swear.
That's the truth.

Look, you're right.

I-I did lie
to your officers earlier.

But he said if I involved
the police, he'd kill Sonia.

Who said that?
The man who took her.

Look, Sonia never
came home last night.

I was about to call the police
when my phone rang,

and they said if I ever wanted
to see her again,

I'd have to pay him
$250,000.

I need the number.

It said "blocked."

Listen. I know
I-I shouldn't have lied,

but I'd really prefer
to handle this myself.

Unfortunately, that's no longer
an option, Mr. Laetner.

And you owe it to your wife

to use every resource available
to bring her home safely.

What do you think
I've been trying to do?!

You're right.
I-I'm -- I'm sorry.

It's alright.
It's a stressful situation.

Now, what can you tell me
about the man's voice?

but I'm, like, really good
friends with the cops here.

They're doing
everything they can

to make sure
your mom comes home to you.

And until she does,
you can call me.

Whenever you want.

Even if it's just to talk.

Got it?

[ Footsteps approaching ]

Cosmo, let's go.

He did not look happy.

Lopez: He's not.
What happened?

Claims Sonia was kidnapped
for a ransom

but doesn't want
the cops involved.

Do we buy that?
He's already lied to us once.

I'm not taking anything
at face value.

You spend a lot of time
at the house.

Do you think he'd hurt her?

No. He's --
He's never been violent.

I've heard them argue
maybe like twice.

Why?
Do you think he killed her?

I'm not ruling anything out.

We need a team
to search the house.

Once they're done,
I want units parked outside.

If he leaves
for any reason,

I want him followed.
You got it.

I'm gonna get a warrant for
his phone. For whatever reason,

he cannot be allowed
to make a money drop alone --

if there even is
a money drop.

parked outside all night.

There was no movement.

we'll know.

she's still alive?

it may have started somewhere.

Exactly. So I started

the fire department --

complaints, lawsuits,

I can help.

No need.

I got him.

His name is Anthony Pickett.
He's a firefighter --

ex-firefighter,
to be specific.

Got cut
and didn't take it well?

Yeah, he made it
through the academy

but washed out
during probation.

Other firefighters found him
to be difficult and aggressive.

He actually picked a fight with
an old-timer who later found

the hose had been cut
on his breathing apparatus.

Mm. Short fuse.

Few days after that, he showed
up at the station that cut him

looking to get his job back.

Unit was called out, but
he seemed to accept his fate.

But apparently,
he couldn't let it go.

Okay,
how do we know it's him?

Cross-referenced
his registered vehicle

with our description
and partial plate.

It's a match.
I already put out a BOLO.

I'll send units
to sit on the house.

Maybe we'll get lucky.
