00:01Previously on SWAT
00:03My dad killed a cop. Doesn't matter that it was a decade ago.
00:06As soon as word gets around, it's gonna be the same old thing.
00:08You got one warning. You mess with Gamble, you mess with 20 Squad.
00:11That means you mess with me.
00:13I really like you, and I know we said it was only casual, but I don't want to lose you.
00:17I know you've taken this job overseas, but I was wondering if maybe...
00:25I was thinking of turning the job down.
00:27He's already released the inmates in the control unit.
00:31He wants to start a damn riot.
00:33This is your final warning. You stay back.
00:36You're an incompetent moron who's got no business running this or any prison.
00:40When my wife hears how you handle things...
00:42SWAT handled what you couldn't.
00:43And now you want to shift the blame for your mistakes on the SWAT?
00:46You're finished. I guarantee it.
00:48You know, I was really about to complain about you dragging me in early, but watching you choke down, whatever that is, might be worth it.
01:00Well, Maggie loves them. I think I'd rather eat my salad than drink it.
01:04Listen, I got a heads up last night that Deputy Chief Bennett's coming by SWAT today to conduct her biannual review.
01:10Bennett oversees the department. You got to do it sometime.
01:13Two months early? I might buy there's no ulterior motive if she wasn't married to David Bennett.
01:18Warden Bennett from the prison where we put that riot down a couple of weeks back.
01:21Oh, I remember him. I heard he was put on suspension.
01:23He was. Pending a Department of Corrections inquiry happening next week, which I was supposed to testify.
01:28And then suddenly Deputy Chief decides to visit.
01:31You think she's coming here to influence what you say?
01:33I didn't mince words with the warden during that riot. I told him I thought he was incompetent and unfit for his position,
01:39and immediately brought up his wife's name and her rank.
01:41Okay, but that's on him, sir, not her.
01:43I crossed paths with the Deputy Chief a few times when we were both on patrol, and I always found her to be a stand-up cop.
01:49Well, I hear you, but, uh, I mean, she's risen up.
01:53And you reach a command position, you got to play politics. And that can change a person for the worse.
01:59You handle it just fine. Why don't you reserve judgment for when she's here? I'm gonna go suit up.
02:06Alright.
02:13Hi.
02:14Hi.
02:18You sure you have to get going?
02:20I could skip my morning workout, then I'd have time for breakfast, or maybe...
02:29Olivia, please tell me that was not a prize family heirloom.
02:34It was a gift from my mom to celebrate my first published story.
02:39I'm just kidding. Thrift store trinket. It's not a big deal.
02:43But the look on your face? Priceless.
02:46Okay, if this is how you want to play, you can take another assignment head right back out of town.
02:50Uh, no thank you. After a week in a crappy motel, I missed my bed, my shower, and my good Wi-Fi.
02:57Well, I missed you.
02:59Well, maybe you could come with me next time. Not to the middle of nowhere.
03:04I'm on a panel next month in New York. Maybe we could make a romantic weekend out of it.
03:09Next month?
03:10Mm-hmm.
03:11Yeah, I had to check my schedule at work. Team's been pulling a lot of extra shifts.
03:16Sure. Yeah, that makes some...
03:23Victor. Sorry, but I need you to leave. Now.
03:28Really?
03:29Yeah, something's come up. I'll see you later. Okay?
03:33Right. Later.
03:45What do you think? Someone forget to put equipment away after a workout or is finding all this in Gamble's parking spot more than a coincidence?
03:52After Hondo told people not to mess with her, they'd be crazy.
03:55Or really not want her on SWAT.
03:57At least she's in Oakland packing up the rest of her stuff and doesn't have to worry about it.
04:00Yeah, but we're here. I don't think the security cameras see far out enough to tell us what happened.
04:05I don't think so either.
04:06Morning.
04:07Hi.
04:08Someone's chipper.
04:09I earned it today. Check these out.
04:11Limited edition. Force flow shoe collaboration with, um, Flexer. He's a local graffiti artist.
04:18We're aware dude can't spray paint a flower on a sidewalk without going viral. These are crazy cool.
04:24Freaking impossible to get. The last drop sold out instantly. I didn't take you for a sneakerhead.
04:29Oh no, that's definitely not for me. Matthew's been desperate to find a pair, so got up early this morning, headed over to the store, waited in line a couple hours.
04:37Okay. Dad of the year.
04:39Well, almost wasn't. No, they sold out as I was three people from the front of the line. But thankfully, a woman in the parking lot, she bought the wrong size.
04:47Turns out, they're Matthew's size, so I lucked out.
04:50Perfect.
04:51Mm-hmm.
04:52Oh man, I don't know how to break this to you, but these are fakes. They're knockoffs. You got hustled, D.
04:58No, no. I checked. Trust me. Before I paid, I checked.
05:01No, no, no. You see this tag? The thread color's wrong. On the real deal, it's black. See?
05:08Oh. Oh yeah. They are fake. Can't believe I fell for it.
05:14These are crazy good dupes. The thread color's the tiniest detail. It-
05:18I wouldn't have known to look for it if I wasn't a sneakerhead myself.
05:21Yeah. Thing is, Victoria and Sam, they're easy to please, but now that Lila and Matthew are teenagers, they're into so many things that I just, I don't understand.
05:33So, when Matthew mentioned the sneakers, I thought, oh, here's a chance. He could do something to light up his world like when he was little.
05:39Maybe he won't know the difference.
05:40Oh no, he'll, he'll know. Let's go to work.
05:44Hey! Hey, LAPD!
06:12Hey! Olivia! Stop, stop, stop! Stop, stop!
06:19Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
06:22This is LAPD officer Victor Tan reporting a kidnapping in progress. Victim's name is Olivia Navarro.
06:40Olivia's phone is off, so we can't track her location.
06:47Any hit on the plates?
06:48We ran on the van, popped back as a rental. Kidnappers used a fake name. Rental office security cameras were down.
06:53Dammit, she's been taking our only lead as a dead end.
06:55Okay, give it time, man. We put out a bolo.
06:57We're not the only ones. I just got off the phone with the DEA. They're looking for the same car.
07:02It turns out it was used to abduct Special Agent Gabriel Rodato about an hour before Olivia was taken.
07:07Do they have any idea why?
07:08Agent Rodato is part of the DEA's fight against the Mexican drug cartel.
07:12Doorbell cam caught this of Rodato's abduction.
07:15That's the man I saw. That's the guy who took Olivia.
07:19Name's Pedro Lagar. He's the top lieutenant for the Vallarta cartel, and I'm afraid it gets worse.
07:24DEA figures he snuck across the border by private plane, and he wasn't alone.
07:28Mechanic recognized El Cebueso, a.k.a. the Bloodhound.
07:33So we have a major cartel boss on U.S. soil?
07:35Sadistic one. Bloodhound doesn't care if you're a rival or civilian. He thinks you crossed him?
07:40He'll torture and kill you all the same.
07:42Olivia's tough, but she can't fight off someone like that if she's not dead already.
07:46Hey, hey, hey. Don't do that. Don't do that. Look at me.
07:48We're not gonna stop hunting the Bloodhound until everyone he's taken is found safe.
08:12That's Mustafa.
08:37Sergeant Harrelson and Officer Tan, this is DEA Special Agent Bryant.
08:41I understand you witnessed the abduction of the journalist.
08:44Olivia Navarro, she's my girlfriend. I saw her get taken and I couldn't stop it.
08:47Agent Rodato is my partner.
08:49Any DEA intel I can share to help bring both of them home safe, I will.
08:53The Bloodhound coming in person to kidnap two Americans, it just feels extreme to me.
08:57Even if the DEA was working to take down his cocaine operation, do you have any idea what triggered it?
09:02Recently, Agent Rodato and I started handling Maria Lozano, the Bloodhound's former mistress.
09:07We were turning her as an informant.
09:08With that kind of betrayal, he was probably trying to silence her personally.
09:11I assume the DEA upped Maria's security?
09:14We're still trying to locate her.
09:16At the time of his kidnapping, only Agent Rodato knew Maria's location.
09:19How is that possible?
09:21Five days ago, there was a break-in at Maria's safe house.
09:24Investigation found no link to the Vallarta cartel, so the agency denied my partner's request to move Maria.
09:29So he moved her himself off book?
09:31Rodato's been working against the cartel for years. He knows how they operate.
09:34When he told me Maria was in danger, I believed him.
09:37And he was right. But you don't know where Rodato moved her?
09:39No. I begged him to let me help, but he said he didn't want agency flack coming down on me.
09:44He was probably protecting me from the cartel, too.
09:46When the Bloodhound questions you, it's violent.
09:49So the Bloodhound snatches Agent Rodato as a way to get his ex.
09:53Why grab Olivia?
09:54Tan, is she working on any stories about the cartel or coke trade?
09:57I don't know. She doesn't discuss active stories at home. Same way I don't tell her about ongoing cases.
10:02All right. Call Olivia's editor. Find out.
10:07Does the DEA have any idea where the Bloodhound might have taken Agent Rodato and Olivia?
10:11He's got a list of wealthy friends with properties in L.A. We're running them down now.
10:14All right. SWAT will take the cartel's less glamorous connections.
10:17They must have a local gang that they use to distribute their coke.
10:20Los Magnificos. But they're just boots on the ground. A tool.
10:24A tool with stash houses all over the city. Ready made to hide out.
10:28I think I might have a way in.
10:30Back in Long Beach, a kid I dealt with in juvenile division.
10:33His older brother was Los Mag.
10:34All right. See if he's willing to talk.
10:41Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. All right. Thanks.
10:45Deputy Chief Bennett, you picked a hell of a day to visit.
10:50Yeah, I heard. Bloodhound's in Los Angeles. What's being done?
10:53Well, we put out a bolo on the car that was used in the kidnapping,
10:56and we're working hand-in-hand with the DEA, looking into the cartel's L.A. associates.
11:00Good. Well, I can up the urgency of the bolo with patrol,
11:03and we should get GND looped in as well.
11:05They're already aware. Respectfully, SWAT's got this.
11:09Well, you know, in my experience,
11:10one tiny missed detail can lead to deadly consequences.
11:16Look, you can double-check SWAT all day.
11:20It's not going to change what I say at your husband's inquiry.
11:23I never asked for that.
11:25My husband made his own choices in how he ran his prison.
11:28If he made mistakes, he will answer for them.
11:31If he gets fired, it could impact your career.
11:35I'm a black woman, Commander.
11:36I am more than used to people judging me for things that are outside my control.
11:40So I will just continue to do my job well.
11:42And either they will see how good I am, or they're not worth winning over.
11:46And that's what you're doing now.
11:49Your job.
11:50Yes.
11:52LAPD has the opportunity to not only rescue two innocents,
11:56but capture a cartel leader striking a blow to his entire drug organization.
12:01I'm not trying to hover, but I will be sticking around SWAT HQ today.
12:04All right.
12:06I'll keep you up to speed.
12:07Thanks.
12:11Okay, thanks. I'll give him a call.
12:13Got it.
12:13What's that about?
12:16Someone might be messing with Gamble again.
12:18Parker's spot was blocked, so I got the name of the gate guard on the early shift.
12:21Gonna ask if he saw anything.
12:23But that isn't important right now.
12:24What did Olivia's editor say?
12:26Does he know of any in-process stories she was doing in the Vallarta cartel?
12:29No.
12:29And most of her reporting has been related to the Middle East.
12:32The only mention of a Mexican drug cartel was in her coverage of a student protest in Mexico City,
12:38but that was five years ago.
12:39There has to be something more current, some reason she was taken.
12:42We know Agent Rodato was grabbed to find the informant.
12:46Could Olivia know something about Maria Lozano?
12:48I doubt it.
12:50The DEA would know if she'd been around asking questions.
12:53It's just another dead end.
12:56This morning, I didn't want to make plans with Olivia.
13:00She was trying to hide it, but she was upset.
13:03And that was the last conversation I had with her.
13:06You'll have the chance to fix it.
13:07I hope so.
13:12So you know this Manuel Flores from the Juvenile Division?
13:18I helped his younger brother when the kid had a tough time in his group home.
13:21Manny had already moved to Los Angeles and joined Los Mags.
13:25Wait, this might be him.
13:27Nope.
13:30But I got a lead on a pair of those sneakers that Matthew wants.
13:33How?
13:34And he went to a bunch of stores.
13:35They're all sold out.
13:36Online resale.
13:37Paul and I set up an alert on a couple of websites.
13:39I appreciate it, but I've already been scammed once.
13:42I'm not about to go online and buy from some random.
13:45Relax.
13:45These sites come with buyer protection, and I will help verify anything you buy.
13:50Look.
13:50Five hundred dollars?
13:52What?
13:53It's a starting bid?
13:54No, no.
13:54Come on.
13:54Not gonna happen.
13:55I was happy to wait in line, but the sneakerhead stuff is just way out of my league.
14:00It's disappointing, but I'm not gonna get Matthew to shoot.
14:02Look, I promise you.
14:02We can get it.
14:03Is this the guy?
14:05Yeah, it's him.
14:07Manny, thanks for coming.
14:08And I only came because he once helped out my baby brother.
14:11So here I am.
14:11What do you want?
14:12We want to know what Los Mags have been up to today.
14:15All right.
14:15I'll give you a hint.
14:16You and your boys are involved with the abduction of two people this morning.
14:19Is that right?
14:21Nah.
14:22So if you guys have proof, we got a warrant.
14:24Cut the crap.
14:25We know Los Mags do the bloodhounds bidding in L.A.
14:27Like the cartel guy.
14:29You guys do realize we ain't in Mexico, right?
14:30Yeah, well, neither is the bloodhound.
14:33He's here in the city, and we think you know where he's hiding.
14:36All right, go ahead.
14:37To go warn the bloodhound?
14:40Look, man, we're not involved with them, all right?
14:42Maybe we used to be, but now no more.
14:44We cut ties.
14:45It's not easy to ditch the cartel.
14:46Which is why I need to go warn my boys to lay low until the bloodhound leaves town.
14:50We wanted us to abduct some fed.
14:52Los Mags don't need the type of heat that brings.
14:54We declined.
14:55That's all I know.
14:59All right.
15:00Get going.
15:05Let someone help the bloodhound abduct Agent Rodato and Olivia, too.
15:08Yeah, and time is running out for us to figure out who.
15:10Any progress?
15:14Agent Rodato moved Maria from her safe house five days ago.
15:18The bloodhound and his number two only came to town yesterday, so if it wasn't Los Mags,
15:22someone else must have been doing surveillance on Rodato and Olivia before the abductions.
15:26We've been checking out Olivia.
15:27So far, nothing jumps out.
15:29I spoke with Agent Rodato's neighbor.
15:30He was willing to give us access to his cameras.
15:33Like it's in your inbox.
15:34Got it.
15:34I'll start going through it.
15:37Ten, let me talk to you.
15:38Are you holding up?
15:42I've been reading through the DEA's files on the bloodhound.
15:45Probably a mistake.
15:47Story is he got his nickname from putting a guy in a cage to be ripped apart by dogs.
15:52And the more time that passes, the more I think we're going to bust through a door.
15:55I'm going to find Olivia's body.
15:56If you want to sit this one out, I promise you it won't change how hard we look for her.
15:59No.
16:00I feel bad for Agent Rodato's family having to watch the phone.
16:03At least I'm doing something.
16:04Hey, guys.
16:05Check this out.
16:05This is Agent Rodato's street, just down from his house.
16:10Car's parked.
16:11Driver never gets out.
16:12Sits there for three hours until...
16:14Another car comes and takes his place.
16:16Exactly.
16:16This driver never gets out either.
16:18They're scoping out Rodato's house.
16:19Hold on.
16:20Freeze it.
16:21Freeze it.
16:22Is that a tat?
16:23Zoom in.
16:23Looks like gang ink.
16:27Running it through G&D database.
16:3012 assassins.
16:33A-12s for short.
16:34Looks like they haven't been around for long.
16:36Rush on the scene means they're hungry to prove themselves.
16:38Maybe hungry enough to help a cartel pull off two abductions.
16:41LAPD's got record of two different A-12 hangouts.
16:44Both are downtown.
16:45Looks like one's a restaurant and one's an empty office building.
16:47All right.
16:47We'll split up and check them both.
16:48Let's go.
16:49I'd like to ride along as well.
16:51I've got knowledge on how the Vallarta cartel operates, and my partner could be at one of
16:55these.
16:56Grab your gear.
16:56No sight line.
17:05Windows on the one side are all covered.
17:07I've got eyes on the rental van used in the abduction.
17:09This has to be where they have Rodato and Olivia.
17:11Fall back.
17:12I'll call the DEASRT.
17:14Get the team out here ASAP.
17:15Agent Bryant, mobilizing a team and getting them here to this location would take 30 minutes
17:19at least.
17:20We are right here, and Honda's only 10 minutes out at the other A-12 stronghold.
17:23If the Bloodhound's inside, his Lieutenant Lagar is there as well.
17:26Maybe even more Vallarta muscle.
17:28The DEA's got more experience with them.
17:30SWAT can handle this.
17:32The Bloodhound could be hurting Olivia right now.
17:33I'm not waiting half an hour for the feds.
17:35Hey, I've got two A-12s coming out.
17:40Hey, hey.
17:41Someone's there.
17:41Go tell the others.
17:42Go.
17:44Again.
17:50Hey, cover.
17:56Suspect down.
17:58Moving.
18:01Hold on.
18:03Stop.
18:03Run!
18:28Ruter!
18:29Second suspect down
18:34On your stomach
18:37Give me your hands
18:3842 David
18:42Third suspect in custody
18:44Clear
18:44I'll sit on him
18:46You two check the back
18:46Moving
18:47Left side clear
18:49Left side clear
18:55Right side clear
18:56Someone's inside
19:05Olivia
19:15Victor
19:17Are you hurt?
19:18What is SWAT doing here?
19:19I was starting to think
19:20But you're alive
19:22You're okay
19:22Yeah I'm fine
19:23I'm working
19:24The rest of the place is clear
19:26Where's Agent Rodato?
19:28I don't know who that is
19:29That is a damn lie
19:30Whoa whoa
19:30Calm down
19:31Calm down?
19:32Look around
19:33A camera
19:34Two chairs
19:35She's not a prisoner
19:36She's a damn guest
19:37Of the cartel
19:38Now my partner
19:40Is out there somewhere
19:41Maybe being tortured
19:42Maybe dead
19:43And she's just been
19:44Sitting here
19:45Feet up
19:46Waiting to interview
19:47The bloodhound
19:48The bloodhound
19:48Damn waste of time
19:51The bloodhound is hunting
20:01An informant
20:02Likely torturing
20:03My partner to find her
20:04And your officer's girlfriend
20:05Is trying to conduct
20:07An interview with the cartel
20:08Olivia said she never saw
20:09Agent Rodato
20:10And didn't know
20:11He'd been taken hostage
20:12Until SWAT told her
20:13Are we just gonna take
20:14Her word for it
20:14She's a fame-hungry reporter
20:16Looking for a big headline
20:17Watch it
20:18She has obviously
20:20Been in contact
20:21With the Vallarta cartel
20:23I want to see
20:23Her communications with them
20:25Maybe we can use that
20:26To locate my partner
20:27And save someone
20:28Who actually needs saving
20:29So far she's refusing
20:31To share any info
20:32On our cartel contact
20:33This is ridiculous
20:33Alright enough
20:34Enough
20:35As a journalist
20:37Miss Navarro
20:39Can legally protect
20:40Her sources
20:41Now Agent Bryant
20:41You're welcome
20:42To try and get a subpoena
20:43But in the meantime
20:44SWAT's gonna pursue
20:45Other avenues
20:46To find Agent Rodato
20:47I understand
20:52That he's upset
20:52About his partner
20:53But he's wasting his time
20:54No judge is ever
20:55Gonna go for that
20:55I would have said
20:56So in his presence
20:57Commander
20:57But I didn't think
20:58He needed my backup
20:59Well
20:59Maybe next time
21:01Deputy Chief
21:01Alright
21:06Hondo didn't find
21:06Anything at the
21:07A-12's restaurant spot
21:08But patrol's got eyes
21:10On that in the office
21:11Building in case
21:11To blow down shows
21:12I doubt it
21:13The A-12's had plenty
21:14Of time to warn him off
21:15Alfar and I
21:15Will take a run
21:16At the A-12's
21:17We grabbed
21:17And see if they know
21:18Where the cartel's
21:18Holding them
21:19Get Hondo
21:20And find out
21:21What your girlfriend
21:22Is willing to tell us
21:23I'm sorry okay
21:32But I can't reveal
21:32Any information
21:33About sources
21:34It would put my contacts
21:35In serious danger
21:36You have to understand that
21:37We don't need to know
21:38Your sources
21:38But if you're
21:39Stand up as Tan says
21:40You can help us
21:41Without compromising yourself
21:42There is a DEA agent
21:44Still missing
21:44His life is on the line
21:45Right now
21:46Look
21:46I never assumed
21:47The bloodhound came
21:48To the US
21:48Just to speak to me
21:49But I swear
21:50I never saw
21:51Agent Rodato
21:52I only know
21:53Where the cartel took me
21:54And SWAT already found that
21:55They think
21:55You were in the car
21:57With Pedro Lagara
21:58He's the cartel's
21:59Top lieutenant
21:59You might have
22:00Overheard something
22:01Wait
22:04There might have
22:05Been something
22:05I don't know
22:07If it means anything
22:08But their clothes
22:09The other guy in the car
22:10Was whining about the smell
22:11Said that it was from
22:12Making a delivery
22:13To a fish market
22:14Well I'm guessing
22:15Lagara wasn't here
22:16Running idle errands
22:17In LA
22:17What if that delivery
22:18Was Agent Rodato
22:19Then that fish market
22:20Is probably where the
22:21Bloodhound's holding him
22:22Right now
22:22We need to find it
22:23Thank you
22:29For helping
22:30But Olivia
22:31What were you thinking
22:33Trying to meet with
22:34A sadistic cartel leader
22:35Just for a story
22:36It wasn't about
22:37The story Victor
22:38I wanted to get intel
22:40What do you mean
22:41Intel about what
22:42Five years ago
22:43I covered a protest
22:44In Mexico
22:44Students were outraged
22:46About state officials
22:47Taking cartel bribes
22:48They had public support
22:49Until three of the
22:50Student leaders
22:51Just disappeared
22:52The bodies were never found
22:53And their families
22:54Have no idea
22:55What happened to them
22:55But the rumor was
22:56The Vallarta cartel
22:57Was behind the killings
22:58Okay and what makes you think
23:00The bloodhound
23:01Would tell you anything
23:01About these murders
23:02He's obsessed
23:03With his public image
23:04He's trying to be
23:04The new Pablo Escobar
23:05He's building schools
23:06And hospitals
23:07With drug money
23:08Sure
23:09So I was gonna play
23:10To his vanity
23:11Suggest what a hero
23:12He'd be
23:12If he could just
23:13Give some closure
23:14To the missing students' families
23:15I thought maybe that way
23:17I could actually get
23:17Some answers for them
23:18But I've lost that chance now
23:21You won't agree
23:21To meet with me again
23:22I'm not gonna apologize
23:23For finding you
23:24I saw you being taken
23:25By a violent cartel
23:26I thought that I
23:28Was gonna lose you
23:29Or that maybe
23:30I already had
23:31Look Victor
23:31You've been through a lot
23:33Okay I really don't think
23:34We should talk about this
23:34Right now
23:35Do you not understand
23:36How much I care about you
23:37I know
23:38That you would have done
23:39Anything to save me
23:40I know that
23:40But when I'm not in danger
23:42I don't get it
23:42You're always holding me
23:44At arm's length
23:45This morning
23:47I
23:48I never meant
23:50Then what did you mean
23:51You're keeping this casual
23:54But I stayed in LA
23:56So I could be with you
23:58So if that's not
24:00Something you want
24:01Then you need to let me go
24:03None of the A-12s
24:10We scooped up
24:11Know where the bloodhound
24:12Is holding agent Rodato
24:13Did you and Hondo
24:14Talk to the DEA
24:15They said the Viator cartel
24:16Has no ties to any
24:17Real fish markets in LA
24:18So we're guessing
24:19It's gotta be code for something
24:21Pal's scouring through
24:22The DEA files on the cartel now
24:24Looking for some kind of lead
24:25Oh
24:26Damn it
24:29Look I know you said
24:30You're done looking
24:31For Matthew's sneakers
24:32But I got a hookup
24:33At a cool boutique
24:34In WeHo
24:34Thought maybe she can help
24:35That's nice of you
24:36But the demand for these shoes
24:37Is bonkers
24:39Yeah
24:39She responded with
24:40The laughing crying emoji
24:41Said I bet the only people
24:42With extras are Flexer
24:43And the Ludlow family
24:44Who's the Ludlow family?
24:47They're big time
24:47Venture capitalists
24:48No clue what they'd have to do
24:49With the graffiti artists
24:50Oh
24:50She said they're Flexer's
24:51Biggest investors
24:52I guess it's some
24:53Industry secret
24:54Yeah
24:54Makes the art more valuable
24:56Keeping up the street front
24:57Oh
24:58Interesting but useless
24:59Where are we
25:02I'm finding this fish market
25:03DEA files don't mention it outright
25:06But I was looking at transcripts
25:07From Agent Rodato's meetings
25:09With Maria
25:09He was working hard
25:10To build trust
25:11Well I can understand
25:12Her reticence
25:12I'm sure Maria saw firsthand
25:14Just how violent and vindictive
25:15The cartel is
25:16She's putting her life on the line
25:17Just talking to the DEA
25:18Well the Bloodhound's a master of torture
25:20And he's held Agent Rodato
25:21For too long now
25:22Maria was really starting
25:24To open up
25:24In the last few interviews
25:25Yeah
25:26Look at this
25:27She says that the Vallarta cartel
25:28Smuggles cocaine out of Mexico
25:30Using seafood crates
25:31With hidden compartments
25:32The smell could help
25:33Move the product
25:33Past drug dogs
25:35And into the US
25:36Yeah but wherever
25:37They remove the coke
25:38Must also have a lot
25:39Of seafood around
25:40That's got to be
25:40The fish market
25:41Olivia heard them mentioning
25:42But the DEA
25:43Has no record
25:44Of the cartel
25:45Owning any property
25:45In LA
25:46Well the A-12s
25:48Haven't been working
25:48With the Vallarta cartel
25:49For long
25:49But they are doing
25:50Business with them
25:51Pull up their financials
25:53Okay
25:54The A-12s received
25:56A hefty cash transfer
25:57From this LLC
25:58Right about the same time
25:59They started surveilling
26:00Agent Rodato
26:00For the cartel
26:01Property records show
26:02That same LLC
26:03Owns a couple warehouses
26:04One filed for construction permits
26:07Purpose listed
26:08Was to install commercial freezers
26:09What you'd use
26:10To store seafood
26:11That is the Bloodhound's fish market
26:13More likely
26:13Where they're holding
26:14Agent Rodato
26:14Get there
26:23No security cameras
26:24Hardly anyone around
26:26If the Bloodhound's
26:27In there interrogating Rodato
26:28It's not cartel
26:29Business as usual today
26:30They'll have muscle
26:31In there with them
26:31So keep heads on a swivel
26:33On my count
26:34Three
26:34Two
26:35One
26:36Go
26:36Got three suspects
26:49Lagara and two other shots
26:50Fired on the east side
26:5124 David
26:55Got drug processing equipment
26:58This is where the Viator cartel
26:59Impact their smuggle coke
27:00Hondo
27:10Lagara's heading upstairs
27:11Roger that
27:12Moving
27:17One suspect down
27:24Miko
27:25With me
27:26Drop your weapon
27:36Drop it
27:37Drop it
27:38Hands
27:40Wow
27:44Freezer clear
27:50He's headed for the northwest corner
27:54Don't even think about it
28:0120 David
28:01Lagara's down
28:02Get him out
28:03Where is Agent Rodato
28:07A DEA agent
28:09He held out a long time
28:11But everybody has their breaking point
28:13He told you where he hid the DEA informant
28:16He sure did
28:17My boss is on the way to confirm where his traitor ex-lady is hiding
28:21And once they arrive
28:22It's too late
28:25Hondo
28:25If the Bloodhound gets to Maria before we do
28:27He'll kill her and Agent Rodato
28:29Without hesitation
28:30Then we need to find her first
28:32We know the Bloodhound has taken Agent Rodato
28:44To wherever Maria's been hidden
28:45But Lagara's clammed up
28:47He won't give us an address
28:48DEA still hasn't found where your partner might have put her
28:50Higher ups questioned the whole field office
28:52But Rodato acted alone
28:53Only he knows her location
28:55Alright then we need to find it on our own
28:56And fast
28:57From the amount of blood at the warehouse
28:58Agent Rodato can't be in good shape
29:00He wouldn't have given up Maria's location easily
29:02I can't imagine what they did to him
29:04This was found in Lagara's pocket
29:05Ellie King's case doesn't exactly scream cartel hitman to me
29:09That's Radato's phone
29:10Well Lagara must have taken it often when they abducted him
29:12There might be something on there that points to where Rodato hid Maria
29:15I'll call Cyber
29:16Start the process to crack the passcode
29:18Good
29:18Wait
29:18Rodato's like family to me
29:21I might be able to guess my way in
29:23Alright, it's worth a shot
29:26Watching you dash around out there
29:34Reminds me when somebody
29:36Made me run through a man-made lagoon
29:38In a tech bro's backyard
29:40If I remember right
29:41We caught the burglar
29:42But my boots did smell kind of funny for about a month
29:44Hey, just between you and me
29:47Is Commander Hicks always this combative?
29:50Excuse me?
29:51Well, I watched him dress down a DEA agent today
29:54I mean, I'm just wondering if that's the norm around here
29:56From what I heard, Bryant was in the wrong
29:58And you agreed with that
29:59Yes, but even when I first walked in
30:01Hicks was less than polite
30:02I mean, he seems pretty old school
30:03It just takes time to get to know him
30:06We bashed heads plenty of times back when I was made team leader
30:09Oh yeah, over what?
30:11That's ancient history now
30:12Well, coming up in the LAPD when Hicks did
30:14I can't imagine he was too happy that a black officer became team leader
30:18Okay, hold on
30:19If you think for a second that I'm about to give you any kind of dirt
30:22On Commander Hicks, you got it wrong
30:23The only thing I'll tell you is he will be honest
30:26If that inquiry into your husband's prison
30:27Yeah, he's gonna blame my husband
30:29And I'm the one who loses standing
30:31All the good that I could do
30:32When someone like Hicks, who should have retired years ago
30:35Continues on in leadership
30:37Okay, all due respect
30:38But it ain't doing good
30:39When you gotta blackmail someone to achieve it
30:41I gotta go
30:43But teacher, I'll say this
30:45The old you would never compromise the badge like this
30:48Tell me you got something off of Rodato's phone
30:57He and Maria are running out of time
30:58Location tracking's a bust
31:00It's totally shut off
31:01And if Rodato was messaging with Maria on this phone
31:04He's erased every trace of it
31:05Call log's pretty basic
31:07Looks like family, work
31:09Wait a minute
31:10What's this outgoing call?
31:12To somebody named Brandy Rice
31:13Rodato's mentioned her before
31:15She's an old friend of his
31:16Okay, but that's the same day Maria's safe house was compromised
31:19That ain't the time to be calling a pal
31:21Just for a simple chat
31:22Look at this
31:23Brandy Rice is FBI
31:25Works assets and seizures
31:27Seizures?
31:29That means she has a list of L.A. properties
31:30Taken by the feds during investigations
31:33And if they had a house just sitting there
31:34Maybe Rodato borrowed it
31:36Move Maria there?
31:37Like an unofficial safe house
31:39Alright, I'll call Rice
31:40Grab the rest of the team
31:41I'll meet you all at Black Betty
31:42We're rolling out
31:43Officer Tan
31:49I owe you an apology
31:50Nah, you care about your partner
31:53I know how scared I was for Olivia
31:55If I thought you were keeping me from finding her
31:57Yeah, it wouldn't end pretty
31:58Hondo spoke to the FBI
32:00Rodato didn't tell Rice he was hiding an informant
32:02But he did borrow an empty mansion
32:04Seized from a hedge fund manager
32:06No security cameras
32:07Front gate was tripped five minutes ago
32:09The bloodhound's there
32:09As soon as he finds Maria
32:11She and Adrian Rodato are both dead
32:12Team's rolling out
32:13You coming?
32:15We got room for one more
32:16Absolutely

38:00and the thought of going through something like that again
