00:01Previously on The Rookie.
00:02Don't puke on him.
00:03This is not my first OD.
00:05I had this girlfriend back in high school.
00:07I found her after prom in a bathroom,
00:09and four years ago, I was diagnosed with cancer.
00:11Given our continued fallout from the mess
00:14Monica and Blair London created,
00:16Wesley Evers has been assigned here
00:18to make sure we're flying right.
00:20Now I'm supposed to work next to Angela Lopez
00:22when all I can think about is how much I want to...
00:24Malvado is a myth,
00:25the criminal equivalent of the boogeyman.
00:27Well, apparently,
00:28Southern Front hired him to kill Jason.
00:30We have the same goal.
00:31All you have to do is leave,
00:33and your problems go away.
00:34I can't do that.
00:39I know you like oat milk,
00:41but the store was out so I got almond.
00:43I hope that's okay.
00:44Mm-hmm.
00:46Ah, hello, my beautiful wife.
00:48Hey, just wanted to check in
00:49and see how it's going with my newer replacement model.
00:52Hi, Bailey.
00:53Yeah, this lady's not a replacement.
00:54She's, uh, bait.
00:55And no one could replace you
00:57because you are awesome.
00:59Now, is this really necessary?
01:01We have U.S. Marshals watching the house 24-7,
01:04and Jason is being hunted by a hitman.
01:07Can I please come home?
01:08Yeah, you can 100% come home
01:10if you can look me in the eye
01:11and tell me that Jason's not a relentless psychopath
01:14that would risk everything to get back at you
01:16for betraying him.
01:17Okay, fine.
01:18You win.
01:19But I'm climbing the walls here.
01:20No offense.
01:21I'm gonna take him.
01:22I totally get it.
01:23I mean, with Rachel here, it is a little snug.
01:25Hey.
01:26Oh, so have we had any movement on the mystery woman
01:28that Jason is supposedly shacked up with?
01:30No, but given Jason's history,
01:32I would say she's probably the lonely wealthy type.
01:35Yeah, which would give him the resources
01:37to stay under the radar.
01:38Okay.
01:39Well, if I can't come home,
01:40can you please pack up some of my things
01:42and give them to Lucy?
01:43I'll text you a list.
01:44Yeah, of course.
01:45And, uh...
01:50Maybe a little later,
01:51we can find some personal time.
01:53There will be no personal time
01:55until we're in our own bed.
01:56I will have Jason caught by tonight.
02:03Hey, I just want to reiterate,
02:05I know what I did last week was wrong,
02:07and I take no delight in any of the public fanfare
02:10around my hero moment,
02:12that our hero moment that we had together.
02:15I just...
02:16I fell out of my groove
02:17with the whole TO swap thing,
02:20so I'm just...
02:21I'm happy to be back with my OG.
02:23Oh, God.
02:24No one likes to suck up Ridley.
02:26Let's go.
02:27Yes, ma'am.
02:28Anything you want to add to this sad mea culpa?
02:30I'm not looking for any extra credit, sir.
02:32I just want to be prepared as possible
02:33for whatever the day hopes.
02:34Preparation is only half the battle.
02:36All I care about
02:37is how you perform on the streets
02:38when your adrenaline's high
02:39and you want to be an action star.
02:40Yes, sir.
02:41I'll keep the wild horse locked in the stable, sir.
02:45Check your phone on your own time, please.
02:46Yes, ma'am.
02:49Oh, wow.
02:50I just keep coming in.
02:51Okay, seriously.
02:52What's going on right now?
02:53I'm sorry.
02:54I'm just...
02:55I'm waiting on my test results to come in.
02:56I'm a little bit paranoid.
02:57Oh, that's right.
02:58Well, um...
02:59Did you get any news?
03:00No.
03:01These are just notifications
03:02that my name's being mentioned somewhere online.
03:04Are you serious?
03:06Yeah, sorry.
03:07I'll put it away.
03:09Oh, okay.
03:10Wow.
03:11They just...
03:12They're good.
03:13They're nice comments.
03:14Airplane mode.
03:15Right.
03:16Hey, Mr. Evers.
03:18Welcome back.
03:19Hi.
03:20Hi.
03:22Sean.
03:23Hey.
03:24Just wanted to be here to welcome you back.
03:25The office wasn't the same without you.
03:27I mean, I'm glad to be back,
03:28as is the entire Midwilshire Station.
03:29Apparently, they don't appreciate oversight.
03:31Yeah.
03:32Well, look, I'm sure you have a lot to catch up on,
03:34but the district attorney election
03:35is right around the corner,
03:37and I just wanted to be sure
03:38I could count on your endorsement, man.
03:40Hm.
03:41Wesley!
03:42Oh, you are aging backwards.
03:43Aw.
03:44I just wanted to say welcome back,
03:46and make sure you're all squared pen-wise.
03:49Oh, thank you.
03:50Nice try, Vivian,
03:51but you're not gonna buy your way to a win here.
03:53Don't you find an insecure man such a turn-off?
03:56I am light years from insecure.
03:59Hm.
04:00Anyway, I would love your endorsement.
04:02Okay.
04:03Okay.
04:04Bye.
04:05Okay.
04:06You know, in my younger days,
04:07she really would've gotten under my skin.
04:09Right.
04:10Definitely not now.
04:11No.
04:12Hey, Sean.
04:15You have five minutes to talk about something
04:16that's been eating away at the very core of who I am?
04:19Well, that sounds like it's gonna take longer than five minutes,
04:21but yeah, sure, okay.
04:23Thanks.
04:24You're really the only person I can talk to about this.
04:27Um...
04:28I heard something on the Blair London tapes
04:30that has got me spinning.
04:32I thought you turned in your final report on those.
04:34No, I did.
04:35Uh, it's not criminal.
04:36It's...
04:37You know Keith Graham from Midwilshire?
04:39Yeah, sure.
04:40He's a great guy.
04:41Annoyingly handsome.
04:42I mean, he's a solid detective.
04:43You were seeing Blair?
04:44Yeah.
04:45And during his sessions,
04:47he revealed that he has recurring...
04:50intimate dreams about Angela.
04:52Yikes.
04:53Yeah.
04:55Well, look, you know that legally,
04:57you cannot divulge any of that to her.
04:59That's a violation of his privacy,
05:01and that puts the two of them
05:02in an incredibly uncomfortable position.
05:04I know.
05:05But it's driving me crazy.
05:06Why?
05:07Wes, I...
05:08You know, it seems to me
05:09it comes down to how secure you are in your marriage.
05:12He's definitely not the first guy to hit on your hot wife.
05:14He certainly won't be the last.
05:16Wait.
05:17Did you?
05:18I plead the fifth.
05:22All right.
05:23This is not gonna be easy when the CHP calls for mutual aid,
05:30usually because things have gotten messy, even for LA.
05:36Now, wrecks like these are all about problem solving and accuracy.
05:46We have to be exact with every word in our reports.
05:48Our measurements can't be off, not even by an inch.
05:49That would mean a change in liability,
05:50and then a half-decent lawyer could use that
05:51to discredit our entire investigation.
05:52Well, that's mildly terrifying.
05:53Which is why I'm making you primaries.
05:54What?
05:55Face your fears, Officer Juarez.
05:56But I...
05:57You can handle this.
05:58Tell me you can handle this.
05:59I-I can handle it.
06:00I can handle it.
06:01I can handle it.
06:02This is gonna be as fun as putting socks on a rooster.
06:04Come to Chippies.
06:05Come to Chippies.
06:06Come to Chippies.
06:07Come to Chippies.
06:08Come to Chippies.
06:09All about problem solving and accuracy.
06:10We have to be exact with every word in our reports.
06:11Our measurements can't be off,
06:12not even by an inch.
06:13That would mean a change in liability,
06:14and then a half-decent lawyer could use that
06:16to discredit our entire investigation.
06:17Well, that's mildly terrifying.
06:18Which is why I'm making you primaries.
06:19This is gonna be as fun as putting socks on a rooster.
06:22Come to Chippies.
06:23He's like 50 feet away.
06:25He for sure could've walked.
06:28Afternoon.
06:29Thanks for the assist.
06:30Where do you want us?
06:31Given the circumstances,
06:32we think this should be an LAPD-led investigation.
06:35No problem.
06:36Where will CHP be stationed?
06:37We'll be helping out at the off-ramp.
06:39Oh.
06:40Over in the shade.
06:41We're leaving grateful citizens
06:42from bumper-to-bumper traffic.
06:43That's nice.
06:44We just want the freeways up and running
06:45as quickly as possible.
06:49I told Juarez she's got primary on this.
06:52Bold.
06:53You either want to end her career right now
06:54or you honestly believe in her.
06:55What do you want us to do?
06:56Okay, well, first thing first,
06:58we render safety and aid to all victims.
07:01That means that our number one priority
07:03is just clearing a path for the next ambulance.
07:05I gotta take this.
07:06Yeah.
07:08What's happening?
07:09Were you able to get that stuff from Lucy?
07:12She was gonna come by here at lunch
07:13and bring it to me.
07:14You forgot.
07:15Yeah, sorry.
07:16This morning's been just a little chaotic.
07:18But you stay put.
07:19I promise.
07:20I'll get it to you tonight
07:21or tomorrow at the latest.
07:22Okay.
07:23Yeah, stay safe.
07:24I love you.
07:25Love you too.
07:35How far, Boop?
07:3718.6 feet, sir.
07:39Sure about that?
07:40Positive, sir.
07:41Ridley, how far?
07:42Uh, 20.
07:45No, that's 20.1, 20.2.
07:47It just keeps moving.
07:49Oh, I have to stand still.
07:51Yeah, okay.
07:5220.2.
07:53Okay, that's right.
07:54That's right.
07:55Hey, what's next?
07:56Okay, well, now, I mean,
07:57now you take a million photos.
07:59Just make sure you get the scene from every angle.
08:01You search the cars for any open containers, alcohol, drugs.
08:04If there's any indication that this is a DUI,
08:07that changes everything.
08:08Okay.
08:09Okay?
08:10Clear.
08:11Oh, hey, hey.
08:12Did you get pictures from underneath the car and above as well?
08:13No.
08:14No, sorry, sorry.
08:15It's my bad.
08:16No, listen.
08:17I understand there's a lot going on right now,
08:18but I can't be holding your hand every step of the way.
08:19Yeah.
08:20Time to take the training wheels off there, Ridley.
08:21Can you just lay off?
08:22You have no idea what anybody's going through, okay?
08:23My girlfriend died in high school in a car accident,
08:24and this whole thing is bringing up a lot of bad memories.
08:26I'm sorry, dude.
08:27I didn't know.
08:28I didn't know.
08:29I didn't know.
08:30I didn't know.
08:31I didn't know.
08:32I didn't know.
08:33I didn't know.
08:34I didn't know.
08:35Just think next time before you speak, okay?
08:36Officer Penn, you clear this car?
08:37Yes, sir.
08:38The driver was critical.
08:39Went off in the first ambulance.
08:40You didn't think to make note of this?
08:41I'm sorry, sir.
08:42I thought we were checking for a vehicle.
08:43I was checking for a vehicle.
08:44I was checking for a vehicle.
08:45I was checking for a vehicle.
08:46I was checking for a vehicle.
08:47I was checking for a vehicle.
08:48I was checking for a vehicle.
08:49I was checking for a vehicle.
08:50Time to take the training wheels off there, Ridley.
08:51Can you just lay off?
08:53You have no idea what anybody's going through, okay?
08:55My girlfriend died in high school in a car accident,
08:56and this whole thing is bringing up a lot of bad memories.
08:58I'm sorry, dude.
08:59I didn't know.
09:00You didn't think to make note of this?
09:02I'm sorry, sir.
09:03I thought we were checking for beer cans, not firearms.
09:06I mean, back home, every call you pull over,
09:07have a gun in the glove box.
09:11Bag this, please.
09:15Juarez?
09:16Yes, sir?
09:17What about this car?
09:18Do we have any information on this driver?
09:19Uh, no.
09:20Nobody's talked to him yet,
09:21but it is registered to a Harrison Novak.
09:24Officers!
09:25Yes, sir.
09:26Double time.
09:27Coming.
09:28You're right there.
09:29This is the LAPD.
09:30Is anyone in there?
09:31We're going to get you out.
09:32Just hang on.
09:33Please, please, please.
09:34Oh, my God.
09:35We need an ambulance!
09:36I had never seen him before.
09:38But he knew me.
09:39He was waiting.
09:40He called out Savannah, and when I turned,
09:41he spurred me in the eyes of my car.
09:43He was waiting.
09:44He was waiting.
09:45He was waiting.
09:46He was waiting.
09:47He was waiting.
09:48He was waiting.
09:49He was waiting.
09:50He was waiting.
09:51He was waiting.
09:52When I turned, he spurred me in the eyes with something.
09:55It burned really bad.
09:58Um, I tried to run.
10:00But, um, he hit me over the head,
10:02and the next thing I knew,
10:04I was tied up in the trunk.
10:07And we drove around forever.
10:10It felt like hours.
10:12And, uh, he was singing.
10:15He kept replaying the same dumb pop songs,
10:18singing along at the top of his lungs
10:20without carrying the war.
10:22Well, you're safe now.
10:23Okay?
10:24And the good news is, we know who he is.
10:25Officers are kicking down his door as we speak.
10:30Police!
10:31Harrison Novak, we have a warrant for your arrest.
10:34Ridley.
10:50Clear.
10:51Clear.
10:52Clear.
10:53Clear.
10:54Clear.
10:55Clear.
10:56Clear.
10:57This place is giving me the creeps.
11:02Feels like teenage girls live here, not a 40-year-old dude.
11:05Get used to it.
11:06We're gonna be here for a minute.
11:07There's only property registered in his name.
11:08We need to search every inch of this place.
11:10So glove up, tear it apart.
11:12Yes, sir.
11:13How bad?
11:17Physically, she should be okay.
11:18Guy did not drop in public and kept in a trunk for hours.
11:21Being a woman is consistently terrifying.
11:23Then you have a daughter and it only gets worse.
11:25Harrison Novak was arrested three years ago for burglary and assault.
11:28He broke into a woman's home and choked her.
11:30Seemed open and shut, but evidence was compromised,
11:33and the prosecution lost the case at trial to Novak's hotshot lawyer.
11:36Who the hell was that?
11:38Your husband.
11:39Yeah, I recognize the case.
11:40The cops screwed up the chain of evidence and I got him acquitted.
11:43Why?
11:44We found a girl in his trunk in pretty bad shape.
11:46He's currently at large, so if you can give us anything, that might help.
11:49I'll pull his file and get it to you ASAP.
11:52Let me know if there's anything else I can do.
11:54Thanks.
11:58You remember the Harrison Novak case?
12:00Uh, yeah, of course.
12:01That's the only time I lost the trial. Why?
12:03Novak just abducted a woman.
12:05Maybe not the first.
12:06Well, that's not good.
12:09For either of us.
12:10Huh.
12:17Hey, I'm sorry again for not reporting the gun,
12:19but I did find out the owner had purchased illegally,
12:22and it was registered.
12:23That's not the point.
12:24The cars are frequently broken into by criminals
12:26who do not have a license to carry.
12:28A weapon not registered to them is a win for the criminal community.
12:31Understood.
12:32It won't happen again.
12:33You know what?
12:34I'm gonna recommend you undergo additional training and testing all weekend,
12:36plus an additional three hours a day for the next two weeks.
12:39What? It was a simple mistake.
12:41Look, if I can't trust you to clock loaded weapons in plain sight,
12:43what else can't I trust you with?
12:45What's wrong?
12:46I lost her.
12:47She left the apartment.
12:48I got blocked in by a truck.
12:49Hello?
12:50Come on, come on.
12:51She's ducking my call.
12:52Well, you can track her phone, right?
12:56What's wrong?
13:05I lost her.
13:06She left the apartment.
13:07I got blocked in by a truck.
13:09Hello?
13:10Come on, come on.
13:16She's ducking my call.
13:17Well, you can track her phone, right?
13:26She's headed towards Echo Park, the firehouse.
13:31Punch it.
13:36Oh, this guy is totally a psycho.
13:40You were his outside shoes, right in the bedroom.
13:45Wait, these things got to be caked in evidence, right?
13:47Potentially.
13:48Take a photo and then bag them.
13:51Hey, Ridley, can I ask you a question about something from earlier?
13:56Yeah, that's not really my favorite way to start a conversation, but sure.
14:00A few weeks ago, you told me that your girlfriend overdosed.
14:02And then earlier, I swear, I thought I heard you tell Miles that she died in a car accident.
14:06Yeah.
14:08Sorry, I should have made that more clear.
14:10Sarah didn't actually die from the OD.
14:12We got super lucky.
14:13My friend's daddy's a doctor, and he came home just in time with some naloxone.
14:18And then she died in a car accident?
14:20No, that was a different girlfriend a year later.
14:23Savannah wasn't a one-off.
14:24I found this hidden in the hallway closet.
14:26Oh, my God.
14:31More victims.
14:41Hello?
14:41Hey, counselor.
14:43Harrison Novak.
14:46You helped me out of a jam a few years ago?
14:48Of course.
14:48I'm just finishing up a meeting.
14:50Can I call you right back?
14:51That's okay.
14:51I can hold.
14:52I got time.
14:53I've got Harrison Novak on the phone.
14:56He wants me to represent him.
14:57What's my ethical obligation here?
14:58Do I have to tell him I'm no longer a defense attorney?
15:00Uh, no.
15:00But as a prosecutor, the only thing you can't do is agree to represent him.
15:03Other than that, you can tell him anything he needs to hear to keep him on the line.
15:06Okay.
15:06Angela, it's Del Monte.
15:07I've got your husband here.
15:08He's talking to Novak on his cell phone right now.
15:10Hot damn.
15:11Setting up a trace now.
15:12Okay.
15:13I'm putting on speaker.
15:14Wesley, just keep him talking as long as you can.
15:17I'll mute my phone so we can listen.
15:19All right, great.
15:19I'm going over to him now.
15:22Sorry to keep you waiting.
15:23How can I help?
15:24No problems.
15:25Look, I know you're a very busy guy, so I will skip the foreplay.
15:28I was super impressed with how you handled my case back in the day, and I find myself
15:33in a bit of fresh legal jeopardy.
15:36How bad are we talking?
15:37I don't like to use that word.
15:39Bad.
15:40So, judgy.
15:42Good.
15:42Bad.
15:42Right.
15:43Wrong.
15:43Well, just choices and decisions repressed people use to keep more free-thinking individuals
15:49in a box.
15:50Right.
15:50Well, I wasn't trying to judge.
15:52I just need to know a little more of what I'm getting into before I commit.
15:55Well, I can tell you this much.
15:56Most people might not like what I do, who I am, but everyone inflicts and contributes
16:02to some level of pain and suffering.
16:04Might step on a bug or cook a steak.
16:07Let's do my version of that.
16:09Only on a bigger, more connected level with larger and more conscious animals.
16:14Are you saying you've killed people?
16:15Are you saying you're my lawyer?
16:17Mr. Novak, I'm just trying to make sure we're both on the same page.
16:19This is taking longer than I'd wanted, and I have a bit of a ticking clock problem.
16:22I'd wanted to achieve so much more by the end of my story.
16:26A certain number of accomplishments to make the world take notice.
16:30So, now I find myself having to get into the volume business.
16:33Wait, why don't we get together in person and discuss?
16:36I gotta go.
16:37But don't worry.
16:38You'll probably see me later tonight on your TV.
16:39Wait.
16:40Ciao for now.
16:42Please, tell me you got a location.
16:44He's calling from Sorority Row.
16:46He's gonna pull a Ted Bundy.
16:48I'm sending every cop in the city, but I'm not sure we're gonna make it there in time.
16:51Say a prayer.
16:52I'm sending every cop in the city, but I'm not sure we got to deal with some shit.
16:57Wow!
16:57Ah!
16:57Ah!
16:58Ah!
16:58Ah!
16:59Ah!
17:00Ah!
17:01Ah!
17:06Ah!
17:13Ah!
17:14Ah!
17:14Ah!
17:14Ah!
17:15Ah!
17:15Ah!
17:15Ah!
17:16Ah!
17:16Ah!
17:16Ah!
17:18Ah!
17:18Ah!
17:19Ah!
17:20Ah!
17:20Ah!
17:21Ah!
17:21Ah!
17:22Who is it?
17:23I, uh, Melanie?
17:26I think I have your package.
17:28It got delivered to my place by mistake.
17:33For you.
17:34Thanks so much.
17:52Police!
18:00It's up away!
18:09I got it.
18:14Everybody okay?
18:15If any of you ladies are looking to join the LAPD,
18:17I'd like to offer a letter of recommendation written by me,
18:20personally.
18:22Get back, this is a crime scene.
18:36Let me through him with the DA's office.
18:38I need to get in there.
18:38I said back up!
18:39Angela! Hold on, Angela!
18:40Stand down!
18:41He's allowed to be here.
18:42Hey, what happened in there?
18:44Please tell me no one's dead.
18:45No one is dead.
18:45In fact, he got his ass kicked.
18:48Hey, it's okay.
18:50You did good.
18:50You're the reason we got this guy.
18:52I'm also the reason that he's been free to kill innocent women for the past three years.
18:56His actions are not your fault.
18:57You were just doing your job.
19:01Hey!
19:02Thought you were too busy for me.
19:04You changed your mind.
19:05I'm not a defense lawyer anymore.
19:06I'm a prosecutor now.
19:08Tricky.
19:09That's how the cops got here so quick.
19:11Yeah, you're lucky we did.
19:12Those girls are about to kill you.
19:14Get in.
19:15We should get him back to the station as soon as possible.
19:17He is a talker.
19:18Yeah, go.
19:19I'll be fine.
19:20You sure?
19:21Yeah.
19:22Gone.
19:23Hmm.
19:25I'll be fine.
19:27I'll be fine.
19:28I'll be fine.
19:29I'll be fine.
19:31I'll be fine.
19:34I'll be fine.
19:36I'll be fine.
19:38Put your hands on the wheel.
20:07I'm impressed.
20:08Like I care.
20:09Who are you?
20:10Why are you following me?
20:12Did Jason send you?
20:13No.
20:14I'm the man hunting your wife's husband.
20:18Malvado.
20:19I'm not your enemy.
20:20We want the same thing.
20:22Jason dead.
20:24You're a wanted man.
20:26I should call 911.
20:27Go ahead.
20:28Have me arrested.
20:30And spend the rest of your life worrying about Jason.
20:33Or you could let me go and never have
20:37I have to worry about him again.
20:44May I?
20:45This number cannot be traced.
20:57But messages will get back to me.
20:59If you hear of Jason's whereabouts,
21:01let me know.
21:04And I will put an end to your nightmare.
21:06Hey, you okay?
21:29Hey.
21:30Yeah, I'm fine.
21:31What were you thinking?
21:31Do you have any idea how dangerous this was?
21:35Oh, look.
21:35My phone is ringing.
21:37The idea was that you stay in the apartment.
21:39All of a sudden I got marshals blowing up my phone
21:41telling me you've gone missing.
21:42You almost gave me a heart attack.
21:43Wait.
21:43How did the marshals know I left?
21:45Are they tracking my phone?
21:47We had a guy posted outside Lucy's apartment.
21:49To spy on me?
21:50To protect you.
21:51In case Jason saw through the ruse
21:52and went after you there.
21:53Can we get back in the shop, please?
21:55Why didn't you tell me?
21:56That's not the point.
21:57What were you even doing down here in the first place?
22:00It doesn't matter.
22:07Before we get started,
22:09I'd like to get us on the same page
22:10as to how we speak to each other.
22:14I mean, we may have...
22:16well, differing philosophies,
22:18but it doesn't mean we can't be cordial to one another.
22:21You don't make the rules here.
22:23I think I kind of do.
22:26I mean, you must have a lot of very distressed families
22:29who are desperate for answers,
22:30and I am willing to tell you everything.
22:33But I expect to be treated like a person,
22:35not a monster.
22:37Sure, we can do that.
22:38We will just listen.
22:40Whatever you want to tell us.
22:43These on?
22:45Yes, you're being recorded.
22:50It's not.
22:52The killing.
22:53You'd think it would be.
22:58It's the least interesting part.
23:00The anticipation.
23:03The planning.
23:05That puts wind in my sails.
23:07The killing itself is more like eating, for me.
23:10Necessary, but...
23:11Not as holistically stimulating as the lead-up.
23:17The killing itself is more like eating, for me.
23:22Right?
23:23The killing itself is more like eating.
23:23It's more like eating, for me.
23:24Yeah.
23:24The killing itself is the only thing that I can do.
23:27Daily feeling their fear...
23:32That just...
23:35fills me up.
23:38When the killing's done, I tend to feel a little...
23:41empty inside.
23:44Lonely, even.
23:45So then I...
23:48have to do it again.
23:50These are human beings you are talking about.
23:53You don't feel any kind of remorse.
23:55Do you feel remorse when you eat a burger?
23:58What did you do with the bodies?
24:00Buried them.
24:01Where?
24:04How about I show you?
24:11All right, you can stay here till the end of shift,
24:13and then Lucy will be here to bring you back to her apartment.
24:17I'm your wife, John. I don't work for you.
24:19And in case you've forgotten, I literally spent the last three weeks
24:22doing tactical military training in Germany.
24:25I don't need you to protect me.
24:27Nolan, Novak gave up the location of his dump site.
24:29You just on the way, I need you guys to meet him there.
24:31Right. Um, we'll finish this later.
24:33Mm-hmm.
24:34Promise.
24:35Uh, would you watch her, please?
24:38You're a grown-ass woman. I'm not babysitting you.
24:42No, no no no no no no.
24:43You're a grown man.
24:56There's no more here.
24:57There's no more here.
24:58Hey. Hey there. You really want to be shooting from the outside. I'm completely backlit.
25:21And no offense, but if you want to have an easy time selling this doc to Hulu or whatever,
25:25you want to see my face and not, uh, random cops. It's what people actually care about.
25:32So good here. Hey, we got something.
25:55Where are they going?
26:04I don't know.
26:07I didn't even bury anyone over there.
26:12They're all wrapped the same. They must be yours.
26:26I swear to god, all my kills are back there.
26:30These aren't mine.
26:31I'm going to have nightmares about that burial site.
26:40Shouldn't I be more hardened by now? I should, right?
26:43No, your empathy is your best quality.
26:45Really? Best quality?
26:47Well, there are certain others best discussed in a non-professional setting.
26:54Thanks for coming right over.
26:55Yeah, of course.
26:56You saw the bodies?
26:57Yes. We didn't unwrap any of them for fear of compromising DNA evidence.
27:01They're all being sent to our morgue facility downtown.
27:03Give us the room, guys.
27:05Hey. Good to see you again.
27:07Hey.
27:07Likewise. Wish it was over at Cafe Americano, but here we are.
27:11Hi. Nice to see you. Uh, who wants to start?
27:13I will.
27:13As I told Garza, it seems clear that we have a second serial killer at large.
27:17Harrison Novak has been falling all over himself to take credit for his kills,
27:21but he seemed genuinely shocked when we uncovered those bodies.
27:24Think he knows who the second killer is?
27:25Maybe, but it feels unlikely. I agree with Nyla.
27:28Novak seemed totally thrown by the bodies and worried that this killer would somehow overshadow him.
27:33Okay, so what's our first step?
27:35Mine is a thorough examination of all the victims, which will take days, if not weeks.
27:40In the short term, we need to try to figure out a connection between the two killers.
27:43Well, let's say Harper's intuition is right and Novak doesn't know the identity of the second killer.
27:48I mean, it can't be a coincidence that number two used the same green tarp to bury his victims.
27:54He's clearly piggybacking off of Novak's burial site, right?
27:56Which would indicate that killer number two is trying to hide his crimes inside Novak's.
28:01Which is the complete opposite of Harrison Novak, a killer who's desperate for recognition.
28:06How did number two know about the burial site? I mean, they must have crossed paths somewhere, right?
28:10Theoretically, but without even the slightest hint of where to start looking,
28:13we're talking about an infinitely large haystack hiding a very small needle.
28:16Hope I'm not interrupting, but I might have a smaller haystack for you to search.
28:19I dug through my notes in the Harrison Novak case file.
28:21When we first met, he mentioned that he had spent some time in a psychiatric facility.
28:25That wasn't in his file.
28:26Well, he was 15. Voluntary admission, not criminal.
28:28Which facility?
28:29Westview, out in Chatsworth.
28:31We've been there before. Director's a pill.
28:33We'll go talk to her. Do you mind expediting a warrant?
28:35She's not going to give us anything unless she has to.
28:37Yeah, consider it done.
28:39You do know not everyone suffering from mental illness is a serial killer.
28:43Of course, but we did just arrest one, and he was treated at this facility 15 years ago.
28:48So we're not just here because we heard how personable the staff is.
28:51Okay, listen, we know that this is a sensitive subject,
28:54but most serial killers suffer from some sort of psychosis or antisocial personality disorder.
28:59Nice! Which Psychology 101 book did you pull that from?
29:03I'm about to put her in a different kind of hospital.
29:05With all due respect, we just pulled more than a dozen bodies out of a field.
29:09And now we have a court order for your patient records.
29:11Either you give us access to those records now or later after you spent the weekend in jail.
29:17Are you aware people suffering from mental illness are actually more likely to be victims of violent crime?
29:22Yes, but that's not relevant at this moment.
29:24So are you going to give us the list of patients and staff who are here with Novak or not?
29:29It'll take a while to assemble.
29:31You have 12 hours.
29:33And we don't do grace periods.
29:35I really thought you were going to hurt her there for a minute.
29:38Me too.
29:39And you weren't exactly playing good cop either.
29:41Whatever gets the job done.
29:43What?
29:52Same green tarp.
29:58You want to go in?
29:59As opposed to calling in 100 cops to do it for us?
30:02No guts, no glory.
30:07Control, this is Detective Lopez.
30:09Harper and I are code six on a follow-up at Westview Psychiatric Hospital.
30:13Start up another unit in case we come across anything.
30:15Copy that, Detective.
30:16Copy that, Detective.
30:38You ready?
30:41Ready.
30:46You okay?
30:57Yeah, I'm just regretting my choice of footwear.
31:05I can't believe they still have all this equipment.
31:07You never know when the lobotomies will come back in style.
31:16There's something written here.
31:26Maybe from an old patient?
31:37I feel like I've seen this movie before.
31:38Yeah, but they didn't have guns.
31:44Control, this situation is escalating.
31:46Attach a few more units.
31:47Code three.
31:48Copy that, Detective.
31:56I am starting to regret more than just my shoe choice.
31:59No guts, no glory, remember?
32:01It's not fair using my bravada against me.
32:07Police!
32:16Stop, police!
32:29He's coming back!
32:31You have to get me out of here.
32:32He's gonna kill us.
32:34Are there others?
32:34Does he have someone else?
32:35I don't know.
32:36Please.
32:37He needs medical attention now.
32:38All right, go get him to safety.
32:40I got this gun.
32:52I got this gun right with you, girl.
32:54Hey you, Byron.
32:55Follow me!
32:55I don't know what's going to happen.
32:56Nobody安定.
32:57Do you know what he needs?
32:58I need, of course, for us to guilty.
32:59Oh, my God.
33:29Oh, my God.
33:59Oh, my God.
34:29Oh, my God.
34:31Oh, my God.
34:33Oh, my God.
34:35Naila!
34:36Here.
34:37Are you okay?
34:39No.
34:40He injected me with something.
34:41I can't feel my legs.
34:43Okay, hang on.
34:44There's an ambulance on the way.
34:45This is Lopez, officer down, Westview basement, conscious and breathing, but injected with
34:50some type of paralytic and can't move her legs.
34:52We need those EMTs down here now.
34:54Copy that, detective.
34:55They're on her way.
34:56It's gonna be okay.
34:58How you doing?
35:08Better.
35:09Feelings mostly back.
35:11My best guess is short-term paralytic.
35:14Just try not to think too hard about how dirty all the needles were down there.
35:19Probably for the best.
35:20Any sign of our suspect?
35:22No.
35:23He clearly had an escape route.
35:24Psych hospital just sent the list of patients and employees.
35:27That's a lot of names.
35:28FBI's digging in.
35:30How's the guy we pulled out of there?
35:31Remy Darden.
35:34He's in rough shape.
35:35Hopefully he's stable enough in the morning to talk to us.
35:38And James will be here soon.
35:40I didn't tell him what really happened, just that you suffered a minor injury on the job.
35:45Thanks.
35:47You wanna talk about how scary that was?
35:49Nope.
35:51You wanna hug?
35:52No.
35:56Yes.
35:58That.
36:03Yeah.
36:11Nolan.
36:12My office.
36:16Yes sir?
36:18I got a call from Detroit PD.
36:20They pulled prints from a liquor store robber last night.
36:23Were they Pete's?
36:24They were Pete's weren't they?
36:25Jason Wyler's.
36:27Detroit, Michigan?
36:28I ran a VICAP search.
36:30There was another hit on Jason's prints
36:31two days before outside of Provo.
36:33Looks like Mel Votto's got him spooked.
36:35He's been heading east,
36:37getting as far away from L.A. as he can.
36:39I'm a little surprised he picked survival over revenge,
36:41but I'll take it.
36:42I gave Detroit PD your info.
36:44They'll call if they have anything more.
36:46Thank you, sir.
36:47Hold up. One more thing.
36:49I've been overprotective,
36:52and if Bailey divorces me, no one will blame her.
36:54If I'm in your shoes,
36:56I'm just as crazed.
36:58But you have to live your lives.
37:00Yes, sir.
37:08Where do you think you're going?
37:10Uh, home feels like the wrong answer,
37:13but I'm not sure why.
37:14Sawed off shotgun, dagger, nunchucks, AR-15,
37:17which two violate the same penal code?
37:19We doing this now.
37:20You need to know the law cold,
37:21no matter how tired you are,
37:22no matter how many of the things are going on.
37:24Right.
37:25Sawed off shotgun and dagger.
37:27Violation of 1-2-0-2-0,
37:29possession of an illegal weapon.
37:30What about nunchucks?
37:31Formerly a violation of 1-2-0-2-0,
37:33but currently no violation at all.
37:35They became legal in 2023.
37:37Good. You're dismissed.
37:39Sergeant, I appreciate it.
37:42How hard you're on me
37:43and how dedicated you are
37:44at doing the job right.
37:45And I swear I'm not kissing up.
37:46Where I'm from,
37:47a lot of cops don't have
37:48that same love of diligence.
37:49Some were transplants
37:50who had failed from other departments.
37:52They didn't care the way that you do.
37:54You know, I guess I really understand
37:56how much I had to learn,
37:57so thank you.
37:59Dismissed.
38:00Yes, sir.
38:01I know that logically, intellectually, even legally,
38:16I'm not to blame for Novak's crimes,
38:18but emotionally, I'm struggling.
38:21Well, you're not a robot, Wes.
38:23I mean, I would actually be more concerned
38:25if you felt nothing after all this.
38:27But on the bright side,
38:28at least you've forgotten about the detective
38:30who has the hots for your wife, right?
38:32Well, now I'm thinking about him.
38:33Anyway.
38:34What is this?
38:35You're having a wake for Sean's political career.
38:38Didn't invite me.
38:39I made a sound only a bat could hear.
38:41I figured that would do the trick.
38:42Oh.
38:43It is so nice to see you retain your sense of humor
38:46given the end of your campaign.
38:48Huh.
38:49I mean, who would elect a DA
38:50who was so instrumental
38:51in letting a serial killer go free?
38:53Okay.
38:54You and I both know
38:55that what happened
38:56is far more complicated than that.
38:58Of course.
38:59But voters don't do complicated.
39:01You should withdraw
39:03before you get embarrassed at the polls.
39:04Mm-hmm.
39:05Really nice to have you back.
39:07Mm-hmm.
39:10She's lovely.
39:11Mm-hmm.
39:12Oh.
39:13Stay.
39:14Hey.
39:15Hey.
39:16Um, how much do you trust the LAPD background checks?
39:18I'm sorry.
39:19Why are you at my door asking me that?
39:20Come on.
39:21Okay, so...
39:22Seth told me that his high school girlfriend died of an OD,
39:24but then he told Miles that she died in a car accident.
39:26I confronted him about it.
39:27He covered it pretty well,
39:28said that they were different girlfriends,
39:29but I...
39:30that...
39:31that seems pretty unlikely.
39:32I just can't shake this feeling
39:33that there's something off with him.
