No, that's...

Paperwork.

that we serve and protect.

It's every single
one of you in this room.

CAPTAIN ANDERSEN: So, to remedy that,

I've decided Sergeant Grey and I
are gonna ride patrol today.

TIM: Together?

No. We're each gonna
ride with a rookie,

and their respective T.O.s
will pair up.

Ma'am, I'd be honored
if you'd ride with me.

That is sweet, Officer West,

but today I'm riding with Officer Chen.

Sergeant Grey, I'd be honored

if you rode with Officer West today.

That's cute, Officer Nolan.

But you know my heart belongs to you.

Lucky me.

TIM: Lot of weight on
your shoulders today, Boot.

LUCY: Why? What do you mean?

TALIA: Riding with the captain
is a huge responsibility.

TALIA: If anything
happens to her, well...

TALIA: I don't even know how
to finish that sentence.

TIM: I do. Andersen gets a scratch,

monoxide poisoning.

Two words... body odor.

I'm serious.

Not when there's extras on it.

- Meaning?
- If I don't bring a date,

she'll spend the whole night
trying to set me up

- Mm.

[STAMMERS] Look. It's not a big deal.

It was a little scuffle.

And my job is to protect you
from the bad things,

which includes some of
what I do on the job.

I'm not a kid anymore, Dad.

I'm going to college in a few months.

Are you gonna shadow me across campus?

Don't think I haven't considered it.

Look, I'm trying. Okay?

But to me, you're still my baby girl.

No, I'm not, Dad.

That's just how you want to see me.

Well, you wanted to see me in uniform.

Don't. It's not funny.

You were literally covered in blood.

Yeah, but somebody else's blood.

Uh, t-this job, Henry,
I-it's hard to talk about. It...

Harder even than that "birds
and the bees" conversation.

I'm on the outside of your new life.

Part of it is
because I went to college.

But you're the one
who changed everything.

HENRY: My whole life growing up,

HENRY: you got up and you went to work

and you came home every night,

and I never had to worry
that you wouldn't.

But now you're a cop,
and every time the phone rings,

I panic

and think something's happened.

Henry, I'm sorry. I didn't know.

Because I haven't said anything.

Because you're happy

for the first time in a long time.

Hey, that's not true. I was happy.

No, you weren't.

The last few years with Mom,

you both thought
you were protecting me,

but I could feel it.

I hated that I was the one responsible

for you both being so miserable.

Hey, now. Your mom and I had
our share of problems,

but we were always on
the same page about you.

You were the one thing we did right.

Mostly.
