- Previously on "The Rookie"...
- 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.

Elijah's attorney?

We used to be engaged.

Hi. I'm his mother.

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.

Alright.
Turn to your left.

Turn to your right.

You know, the boardwalk
is a public place.

I have a right to perform.

Well, it does not
give you the right

to pick your audience's pockets.

You know I can
get out of these, right?

You can try.

Voilà. I'm a master
escape artist.

Cute. Let's go.

You know, no
cage can hold me.

Yeah?

Alright.

What about this cage?

A magician is always prepared.

How did you think
that was gonna work?

Yeah. No. I didn't
get that far.

♪ Whoa, oh, oh, oh,
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ♪

♪ I'm gonna win for you like
I know you want me to do ♪

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?

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.

Oh.

Did I miss it?

It's cute.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Thank you.

Okay, you
have an active shooter still at large.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Yes,
well, what is going on?

Hm.

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
on my side hustle.

Oh. What's on your head?

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

Uh, no. It's... It's nothing.

I just need to get situated
into my new office.

Metro-Police liaison.
Best of both worlds.

That's right.

Well, at least it won't
take too long to move in.

No.

Alright.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Thanks for coming.

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.

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.

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?

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.

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.

It is a good thing
you wore a helmet.

I think you're gonna be fine.

Aah!

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.

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.

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.

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.

And now that you're one of

What are you talking
about? What ink?

It's the tattoo we
all have, brother.

It's how we show our loyalty.

Oh, come on. We all know

that as soon as a group of
cops get the same tattoo,

they're going to prison.

What are you trying to say?

Alright, let me see it.

Lighten up, brother. Here.

Here.

Have a unicorn.

Too kind.

Too kind. Thank you.

They're testing you,
seeing how far you'll bend.

Yeah, I saw the
same kind of thing

when I was in the military.

Not about how many stripes on
your sleeves with this crew.

It's all good. Team building.

If you're gonna lead this team,
they need to know who you are.

Show them the Tim Bradford
that was tapped to join Metro

in the first place.

Thanks.

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?

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?

To the left.

To the left. To the right.

To the left. Oh! Watch out!

Mm.

I thought you were
gonna get first place.

You don't want to play again?

You know, I don't like to brag,

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?

Cosmo, let's go.

He did not look happy.

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.

Alright. Come on.

Detectives just
got a partial plate

from the surveillance footage
near the ambulance shooting.

Shooter left driving
a 1992 red Sentra.

What do you got here?

New car fire. No
obvious sign of arson,

but that's for the
investigators to decide.

Let's call in an 11-85

for impound to our
location. Copy that.

So any news on that
shooting from this morning?

It's got all my guys
a little on edge.

Yeah. We got a lot of good
detectives working on that.

We'll let you know as soon
as we learn something.

Appreciate it. Tow
truck's 30 minutes out.

Right.

Get down. Get down.

Pull him up.

We got you. We got help
coming. Call it in.

Control, shots fired
at our location.

We have a firefighter down.
He is conscious and breathing.

Send an R. A. and backup.

Control, also send an airship.

Suspect fleeing location,
red sedan, east on Olympic.

We
answer more than 1,000 calls a day.

My people can't do their jobs

with a bullseye on their backs.

Effective immediately, the
LAPD will dispatch units

to accompany your
firefighters on calls.

We had cops at the
burned-out car. Didn't help.

You need to catch this guy now!

Yeah.

You wanted to see me, sir?

Yes. Your mother called.

Sir? As in me.

As in asking why her son
is dodging her calls.

She even called Dispatch.

I am so sorry.

Save your apologies.

I don't want to hear from
your crazy mother again.

I'll get... If you... I'll...

Go.

You okay?

I'll be better once
there's not some psycho

gunning for every
fire crew in the city.

We'll find him.

It's only a matter of
time.

Yeah.

Mom? Well, it's from
a different number.

Hello. I'm Dr. Schnitzel.

Your mother was just admitted,

and we need to
verify her insurance.

Really? Dr. Schnitzel?

You... You... You really
think I'm gonna buy that?

I don't... Look.
You tell my mom

it's not happening.

Alright? A-And
word of advice...

Don't let her pull you
into any of her schemes.

What was that?
Ah, vintage Mom.

She's moved on to number
5 in her playbook...

Pretend to be sick for sympathy,

get me to give my credit
card number to an accomplice.

Cosmo would love this.

I've never seen a kid who
was such a health nut.

You've been putting in a
lot of hours at their house.

Not that many.

And you're working the
night shift somewhere.

This morning, you were not
coming home from a party.

Not dressed like that. You
were coming home from a job.

What's going on with you?

You need money or something?

It's not like I can
stay here forever.

Why would you say that?
Of course you can.

How's that gonna work?

You, me, and Tim?

And that's assuming you wouldn't
want to get your own place.

Either way, there's
no room for me.

Hey. Sorry I'm late.

Ready for the
movie? I found out

that "Time After Time" is
on a streaming platform.

I think I'm gonna crash.

Are you sure? David
Warner is amazing in this.

Well,
I guess it's just us.

Popcorn? Yeah, sure.

Any chance your judge
signed off on the warrant?

Uh, short answer, no.
"Insufficient probable cause."

No judge wants to imply

that a fellow member of the
bench is guilty of malfeasance.

Well, no warrant, no evidence.

No way of proving
your judge is bent.

I'm having a hard time
believing it myself.

He's one of the most
honorable people I know.

Yeah, I guess no one
is incorruptible.

You know, his chambers
are just a few doors down.

What if I go talk to him?

I've been where he is.
Maybe he'll open up.

I don't have any better ideas.

I got to go.

Wesley.

You're working late.

Yeah, you, too. Just
chatting with Rivas?

Reminiscing. You
know, a lot's changed.

We split up. You got
all sanctimonious.

You sold your soul to the devil.

It's really that simple
to you, isn't it?

Good and evil.

In this case, yeah.

It is.

See you in court. Hmm.

Oh, Mr. Evers.

I'm afraid I was just leaving.

I'll be brief.

I know you're throwing cases.

I beg your pardon?

I don't have any evidence.

Monica's too smart for that.

Elijah Stone is
too smart for that.

You didn't know, did you?

He is her biggest client.

Every time she asks you
to rule in her favor,

it's for one of his guys.

You're helping
rebuild his empire.

I'm helping? The whole reason
he's back on the streets

is because of you! I know!

I am well aware of
my part in all this.

Which is why I know that
you haven't slept in months,

you can't concentrate,

and sometimes your
heart races so fast,

you think you're
having a heart attack.

A life lived in the
service of justice.

I always wanted that
to be my legacy.

It still can be.

Help me put Elijah
where he belongs.

He goes after anyone
who crosses him.

I'm sure you could cut a
deal for witness protection.

And I'm sure I have no idea
what you're talking about.

Please leave.

You know how to reach me
if you change your mind.

Hey. Any updates
on Cosmo's mom?

Uh, no. We had units
parked outside all night.

There was no movement.

But, you know, they
have his phones tapped,

so if the kidnappers
call, we'll know.

Do you think she's still alive?

Listen. If it's about money,

they have every incentive
to keep her alive

until they get what they want.

Cosmo? Cosmo: Dad says
I'm not going to school,

and he won't come
out of his office.

Can you come over?

I'll be right there.

Hey. I don't think
that's a good idea.

I have to.

Tamara? Um, I'll be
parked outside, okay?

You got here early.

I did. I had a
thought this morning.

Our shooter is specifically
targeting firefighters.

You don't just
get up one morning

and decide to start
shooting at LAFD.

This is what it escalated to.

Okay, so you thought it
may have started somewhere.

Exactly. So I
started looking into

any case that involves
the fire department...

Complaints, lawsuits,
patrol calls...

Anything and everything.

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.

Good work.

Thank you. I
know I volunteered us

for the most boring detail ever.

Of course. You're
worried about Tamara.

I get it. Yeah.

Plus, it gives me time
to apartment-hunt.

Mm.

It's hard to find a
place with a pool.

Yeah. I mean, you might need

to be a little
flexible with that one.

Well, I used your "rent should
be 30% of your salary" rule...

Oh. and... and there's like
nothing in my price range.

Well...

hold on. That place is cute.

Yeah. This place is trash.

Uh, that place looks
like my apartment.

I'm gonna go check on your dad.

No. You listen to me.

If you do anything to
hurt her, I swear...

That's not possible.

You're not giving me enough
time. I need more time.

I can't!

No. She's got nothing
to do with this.

And how do I know that?

Please...

let me talk to
her. Put her on.

Hey. I think
Deon's on the phone

with the kidnappers now.
I don't have your money!

I can hear him shouting.

What's he saying? I
can't make it out.

He's emotional.

I'm sorry.
Please put her on.

It has to be them. Please.

Tamara, the detectives
are listening

to all of his known phones,
okay? He's under surveillance.

Just let the investigators
do their job.

All you got to do is make sure
that kid is safe. That's it.

His known phones.

What if he's on a burner?

Tamara...

No. She's got
nothing to do with this!

How do I know that? Huh?

Please... let me talk
to her. Put her on.

He's saying, "Let me
talk to her. Put her on."

"I don't have your
money. I spent it."

think you'd miss it. "I
didn't think you'd miss it."

I'm sorry. "I'm sorry."

Please. Don't hurt her.

"Please don't hurt her."

Uh, Tamara, don't let him
know that you heard him, okay?

Just get as far away as you
can. We're heading in right now.

That bastard. This
happened because of him.

He hung up. I got to go.

What are you doing?
Listening in?

Yeah. I heard everything.

You did this for money?

You don't understand.

You're right. I
don't understand.

Police are on their way.

Let them help you. No.
These guys will kill her!

Police!

Mr. Laetner, you
need to come with us.

Time to come clean. Which one of
your clients did you steal from?

Are you sure Cosmo's okay?

Tamara is with him. He's fine.

You need to focus.

We know you were skimming money,

and we know someone took
your wife in retaliation.

Who was it?

Reed Butler.

That wasn't very smart.
He's killed for a lot less.

I know. But I figured
he's a criminal.

I'm stealing back
the money he stole.

It's justice, kind of.

How noble of you.

Look, I know I'm not
innocent in all this,

but my wife is.

Please help.

I need you to call the
people who have your wife

and tell them you've
got the money.

Set up a place for the exchange.

He knows I don't have the
money. He'll know I'm lying.

Tell them a family
member came through,

wired it to you this morning.

Okay. A-And then?

Then you're gonna
write down a confession

detailing how you embezzled
money from a client.

I'm going to jail, aren't I?

Probably.

I'm such an idiot.

No argument from this
side of the table.

Rivas texted early this morning.

Was it a full
admission of guilt?

"Can we talk?" He's been
careful not to admit anything,

but I can tell he wants to.

Judge Rivas?

He's cold.

It looks like there's
no injury, no blood.

It looks like maybe
a heart attack.

Elijah did this.

We don't know that for
sure. At his age...

But Monica saw me last night.

She knew I could
get through to him.

Elijah had him killed
to protect her.

Alright, everyone
switch to channel 9.

Listen up. We have a
confirmed hostage situation

at that compound
across the street.

Hostage is Sonia Laetner.
White female, dark hair.

Last seen with an orange
sweater and black pants.

We've identified five
suspects on site,

but there could be more.

We don't know which building
our hostage is being held in,

so we need to clear everything.

Detective Lopez
will be our spotter.

She'll provide overwatch.

Why not let Metro
provide overwatch?

Because we need all our
boots on the ground.

And there's no one I'd rather
have on my six than La Adelita.

Oh.

I'm sorry, ma'am.
I-I had no idea.

You're a legend at the range.

No worries. Go get her back.

You heard her. Let's move.

No mistakes.

In position. Are we clear?

Main concourse is
clear. Green and go.

Better bring in the bomb squad.

Someone brought a
grenade to the party.

You're welcome! For what?

Well, I created an Excel
spreadsheet for your expenses.

I used something similar when
I first started on the job.

It is super helpful.

And I-I can send you the
app, as well. Mm-hmm.

And trust me. You're
gonna feel so gratified

when you hit your target
at the end of the month,

and you'll see that
those, um... Those juices

aren't on the daily
budget. Sorry.

Mm. Appreciate that, but...

I talked to my mom last night,

and she's backing down on the
whole action-figure thing,

so it's all good.

Oh. So you're taking
her money again.

Yeah, I-I just can't
live in poverty.

Uh...

It's not poverty.

Aaron!

Hey, Bradford.

Good job out there
today. Thanks.

They're a good bunch once
you get to know them.

Yeah. I'll take
your word for it.

Nothing against Patrol, but...
Metro is a different beast.

We get called in situations that
are already at a boiling point.

That kind of stress
creates a special bond.

And I'm on the outside of that.

And every single one of them
was, too, at some point.

Give it a little time.

Okay.

You want to grab a beer with us?

Do I have a choice?

It's tradition. New
guy buys a round.

Come on.

Yes, I'm happy to send
over my references.

And I can start
whenever you need me.

Thanks.

Hey. You looking
for another job?

Uh, Cosmo's parents are
definitely getting a divorce.

Sonia wants to keep me
on, but she's not sure

if she can afford it with
all the legal fees, so...

You're not still worried about
having to move out, are you?

I just don't want
to be a burden.

You're not.

Tamara, look.

I get it. Your whole life,
you've been displaced

from one home to another,
but that's over now.

Girl, we're family.

You couldn't get rid
of me if you tried.

Thanks.

But I will get my
own place eventually.

Mm-hmm. I don't plan to
be the weirdo roommate

when you and Tim
start having babies.

That's a long way off.

But I don't know. Maybe
it could work out.

I heard you're a
really good babysitter.

You
can't afford my rate.

It's like that?

It is.

Okay. And you're really gonna
leave all your artwork behind?

Wesley. Keep bothering
me and my associates,

I'll happily alert the press.

Judge Rivas is dead.

Yes, I heard.

What happened?

Heart attack.

But we both know that's a lie.
Elijah had him killed for you.

That's ridiculous.

He believed in you when
you were starting out.

And for good reason. I
am an excellent lawyer...

And profoundly litigious,
so watch the accusations.

I did warn you.

This is the price of
working for Elijah.

Well, if you're
done mansplaining,

I've got some actual work to do.

♪ Comparison's a thief ♪

I guess Elijah finally
found his perfect lawyer,

one with as little
morality as him.

What I can't decide

is if the woman that I fell
in love with in law school,

who was kind and loving,

is just gone or if she
never really existed.

Were you always just a

Foxburg Memorial Hospital.

Hello?

Yes, this is he.

I don't understand.

Oh.

Alright, thank you.

What?

My mom died.
