00:00Previously on The Root.
00:02Oh, it's Lisa.
00:03She's got shot.
00:04We got to get her out of there.
00:05I have confirmed that Seth lied to me on two separate occasions.
00:07He can't stay.
00:08Let's talk to Graham.
00:09I finally got my lab results, and my cancer is back.
00:12But we caught it early, and the doctor says that I should still be able to work.
00:16This is James palling around with Leonard Kelsey.
00:19He's an anti-police extremist.
00:22I love you, and I am so sorry.
00:30Just saying, a 10 p.m. weekday meetup feels like payback for everything I've put her through as a rookie.
00:36Oh, shush.
00:37She's just excited to show us the new guy she's dating.
00:43Oh, I gotta go.
00:44Hey!
00:46Thank you so much for coming.
00:47Come on, Liz.
00:48I know, it's late.
00:49Oh, for us a holies?
00:50No, that's not what I said.
00:52There's Rog.
00:53Rog, hey!
00:55Okay, so this is John and Bailey.
00:57It is so nice to officially meet you both.
00:59You too.
01:00You look so familiar.
01:01That's a good one.
01:02I can see why Selena adores you.
01:04And don't get me started on how much she looks up to you.
01:06What a renaissance woman.
01:07Hey, Rog!
01:08I gotta go, I'm up.
01:09I'll see you guys in there.
01:10Okay, see ya.
01:11Isn't he great?
01:12Nice and nice.
01:13He's so cute.
01:18Excuse me.
01:24I'm telling you, I know this guy from somewhere.
01:26Well, actually, you got that.
01:29Thank you guys for coming out to the single release party for my new song, 9-1-1.
01:34I want to give a special shout out to the OG daddy cop, John Nolan, for being such a good sport.
01:39I was going to tell you, but then I didn't because I was afraid about how you'd react and now I feel completely justified in my fear and also realizing how much of a terrible mistake I've made in springing this on you in this moment.
01:50I know you're off duty, but even in blue jeans, that beautiful booty don't quit.
01:59Don't wanna bother you, Officer Heidi, I just have to tell you something.
02:09Woo.
02:12I feel so.
02:15I'm 383?
02:17I'm 388?
02:22Yeah!
02:26I forgot to take her number down
02:29And had to figure out a way to bring her back around
02:35I won't listen to your cuteness
02:38I know I shouldn't do this
02:41I won't watch she had these eyes
02:44I won't listen to your cuteness
02:50I'm doing something stupid
02:53I won't watch she saved my life
02:57Thanks again for helping us.
03:07Are you kidding? I can use the side money.
03:09Getting shot is expensive, even when you work at a hospital.
03:12You good?
03:13Okay, what do you need?
03:15Nothing right now.
03:18Hey.
03:18Okay, I'll make it back for the night shift.
03:24Make sure he walks every three hours.
03:26Throwback to normal is going to be long, isn't it?
03:29It is.
03:30I'm not even quite 100%, but you've got each other.
03:35Right.
03:36All right.
03:40Take care.
03:44Where are the kids?
03:45I told you they are back at my mom's house for a few days while you get settled in.
03:50Hey, come sit with me.
03:51I have so much to do.
03:52I have to get everything.
03:53Please, just one minute.
03:54I don't see the problem.
04:22The problem is she's dating a psychopath.
04:23That's not...
04:24Okay, wait.
04:25I have heard the song.
04:26Arrest me, but make it sexy.
04:29It's funny, and so is the new one.
04:31Yeah, at my expense.
04:34Oh.
04:35I don't understand why men take everything so seriously.
04:38I don't see how you can generalize something like that.
04:41Experience?
04:43We got an emergency.
04:53Get out of here.
04:55Hey!
04:59Smitty, I don't see a raccoon.
05:00It was here, and it was vicious.
05:03It must have escaped into the wall.
05:05What's going on?
05:05Smitty thinks he saw a raccoon.
05:07I don't think I know, because six of the 13 donuts I snuck in here to eat are gone.
05:12You're going to eat 13 donuts all by yourself?
05:15It's not the point, boot.
05:17Okay.
05:17Well, if there is a raccoon, we can't have it running around loose in the station.
05:21I've had a fair amount of experience trapping farmers back in Texas.
05:24Great.
05:25You're officially on raccoon duty.
05:26Expect this thing neutralized by lunch, by any means necessary.
05:29No, don't listen to him.
05:30You can't kill it or hurt it in any way.
05:33It has to be trapped humanely.
05:34I'll say a prayer, kid.
05:36It makes a monster.
05:38Be nice.
05:40Do what you have to do.
05:50Hey!
05:50The front desk just called, said you were coming.
05:53Yeah, sorry to just drop by.
05:55No, it's a good surprise.
05:57Last night was fun.
05:57It was so much fun.
05:59Can I kiss you?
06:01Should I kiss you at work?
06:02It's best you don't.
06:03Right.
06:04Anyway, the reason I'm here is there's been a bit of a crime,
06:08and I've had bad experiences calling 911 before.
06:10Well, not a problem.
06:11What's happening?
06:12Someone broke into my studio last night and stole all my gear.
06:15This guitar is the only thing they left.
06:17That's terrible.
06:17Look, there have been a string of burgers in your neighborhood recently.
06:21They also spray paint a dye on the wall like six times.
06:24Okay, now that makes it seem personal.
06:25You think?
06:26I do.
06:26Oh, it's you.
06:28Hey, thank you again so much for coming last night.
06:31I'm really glad there's no hard feelings.
06:32It's all in fun, right?
06:34Totally.
06:34Nolan, I need you.
06:36Excuse me.
06:37Sure thing.
06:38Have a great day.
06:40Heat is so nice.
06:42Yeah.
06:42Jen.
06:43Yes, sir.
06:43What's going on?
06:44Get over to St. Stephen.
06:46Three girls were just found stabbed in Griffin Park.
06:48EMTs are rushing into the hospital.
06:50How old are they?
06:51Thirteen.
06:52Yes, sir.
06:52We're on it.
06:54I don't think I will ever get over the whiplash of this job.
06:57One minute we're having fun with raccoons,
06:58and the next we're dealing with the horrors of stabbed children.
07:02Raccoons?
07:03Thirteen-year-old female, multiple stab wounds to her abdomen and chest.
07:06Vitals?
07:06Her respiratory rate has been 30.
07:08She's tachycardic, a heart rate of 150.
07:10She's critical.
07:11Starting unit of O-meg and prepper for OR.
07:12Stats.
07:13Yes, doctor.
07:13Speech number two.
07:14Superficial stab wounds, lacerations from her bilateral upper extremities.
07:17Vitals are stable.
07:18Bleeding is well-controlled.
07:19Copy.
07:20Move her to an ER bay.
07:21She needs sutures.
07:22I got it.
07:22Third patient suffered multiple stab wounds to bilateral hands.
07:26Looks like bleeding is well-controlled.
07:27Vital signs are stable.
07:28Take her to another ER bay.
07:30Minor stitches.
07:31Bailey?
07:32Hey.
07:33Hey.
07:34How are they?
07:35Grace is critical.
07:36The other two aren't.
07:37Thank God.
07:37They know the attacker?
07:38Ava just said it was some man in a mask.
07:40He attacked Grace out of nowhere.
07:42Her and Charlotte went up to help.
07:43He stabbed them and then ran off.
07:44We're going to need a better description for the Bolo.
07:46And also the parents' contact information.
07:49God, this is their parents' worst nightmare.
07:53Okay.
07:54Do you have any enemies?
07:55That sounds so hardcore.
07:58Enemies.
07:58I'm not a feudal prince or an overly noble constable.
08:01Right.
08:02But it seems appropriate given someone wrote die on your wall six times.
08:05Might have been ten.
08:06I stopped counting.
08:07Either way.
08:07I mean, it potentially escalates to a hate crime.
08:10So we need to take it seriously.
08:11Okay.
08:14I can't think of anyone who hates me.
08:17Well, in theory, and we're just talking here,
08:21Officer Nolan could have considered you an enemy after you mocked them in song twice.
08:25What?
08:26I wasn't mocking him.
08:28Cop cuties, cutin' on duty, navy blue booties, go ahead and lock me up.
08:32What's mocking about that?
08:33I mean, I get that.
08:34But again, in theory, if he was less open-minded, he might not have liked it.
08:39So does anyone like that come to mind?
08:42Well, yeah.
08:43Hey, calendar boys, you should stick to posing.
08:52No, nobody wants your big, wet hoses.
09:02Ordered some cookies that still have not come.
09:06Give me back my money.
09:10You need to be stopped.
09:21Have you heard about email?
09:23This is Wade.
09:29Wade, it's Jack Bell from the Tower.
09:31Hey, Warden, how's it going?
09:32Not great.
09:33Got a bit of a riot.
09:34I'm sending you some inmates to house while we deal with it.
09:36Hold on, I got a pretty full house here.
09:38They're already on their way.
09:39Penal code section 2910.5 gives me the authority to use local detention facilities as necessary.
09:44How many inmates?
09:46I got to go.
09:47Thanks.
09:49Bradford.
09:51Twin Towers are shipping us some inmates to house, so we need to make room.
09:54Never a dull moment.
10:01How many are we holding?
10:06Baker's dozen.
10:07Ten men, three women.
10:08Okay, we need to set out who we can to make room for inmates coming from the towers.
10:11How many inmates?
10:12No.
10:13Okay, but I just came on duty, and these are all holdovers from Midnight Shift, so let me see who we got.
10:28That's bad, right?
10:29What the hell?
10:34Computers just went down.
10:36Here, too.
10:38A software update just took down law enforcement computers across the state.
10:43Sir, inmate bus from the towers is about to land.
10:46Copy that.
10:55Hello, y'all.
10:57Come on, Luke.
11:00Hotels.
11:01You got ready?
11:04Oh, finally.
11:06Traffic is a nightmare.
11:07You okay?
11:09Air conditions out on the bus, and breakfast burritos beating me up a little.
11:13Who do we have on the bus?
11:14I don't know.
11:16What do you mean you don't know?
11:17Where's the list?
11:18It's all digital now.
11:19They had wristbands with QR codes to scan.
11:22And we can't scan them because our systems are down.
11:26Right.
11:26I heard that on the radio.
11:29Guess you're just gonna have to ask them.
11:30Oh, my God.
11:48Give me an ambulance.
11:49He's having a hard attack.
11:50Requesting an RA unit to the police loading dock.
11:52Howdy.
12:01Y'all haven't seen the raccoon around, have you?
12:09So, what happens now?
12:11I guess I'll just have to do your report over again by hand.
12:14Partis, you with me.
12:19I gotta go.
12:20No worries.
12:21Yeah.
12:21Yo, I gotta pee.
12:44Yeah, me too.
12:46Hold it.
12:47Man, you know how bad that is for your body.
12:49I've only been able to get IDs on two of the 13 suspects in holding, so we can't cite anyone out.
12:54And one of the unknowns has Hill Street Boys gang tats.
12:56Which means we can't put them in the cell with the three inmates we brought in with Ghostland tats.
12:59And we can't put any of them in with the female suspects.
13:02Start calling midnight shift.
13:04Find out who made these arrests and get IDs.
13:05They're gonna be asleep.
13:06Then wake them up.
13:08Yes, sir.
13:12This is crazy.
13:13What can I do to help?
13:14Get all the shackles we have and the restraint chair.
13:16They're parents have been notified, but Charlotte's are out of town.
13:21She was staying with Grace and her mom until they got back.
13:24Ava's dad is on his way in, but the mother's not alive.
13:26Any update on the girls?
13:28No.
13:28Grace is still in surgery.
13:30Charlotte's being looked at, and Ava's been stitched up and is waiting to talk to you.
13:34Hi, Ava.
13:36I'm John.
13:37This is Lucy.
13:38We just need to ask you a few questions about what happened.
13:40Okay.
13:41We hear that you and Charlotte slept over at Grace's last night?
13:44Yeah.
13:45We watched a couple of movies, and then Grace was telling us about this family of deer she'd seen on a trail behind her house.
13:51We got up early to see if we can try and find them.
13:53Did you pass anyone?
13:54Or was someone following you, maybe?
13:56I don't know.
13:57I mean, I wasn't really looking.
14:00We got to the spot where Grace said she'd seen the deer, and this man came out of the trees with a big knife.
14:09He started yelling and stabbing Grace.
14:12I'm sorry, but can you describe the man at all?
14:15Any details you remember can be helpful.
14:18He was tall, big overcoat, black mask, and he was white, I think.
14:24I'm sorry, that's all I can remember right now.
14:28That's okay.
14:30Your dad will be here soon, okay?
14:32Okay.
14:32I'll be back to check on you in a few minutes, okay?
14:35Yeah, thanks.
14:40We need to update the ball.
14:41Right.
14:42The system's still down.
14:43I'll have a dispatch put it out line.
14:44Okay.
14:45Hey.
14:46Hey.
14:47What are you doing here?
14:48Well, they're pulling everybody in because of the network outage,
14:51and I couldn't just sit on the couch and watch you guys get put through the wringer.
14:55How are you feeling?
14:56Good, for the most part.
14:58You know, the nights are a little tough, but other cancer patients have it so much worse.
15:03Where do you want me?
15:04You know what?
15:04Right here, actually.
15:05I was about to make a call to get some officers here to guard these girls, so that works great.
15:10Is it okay if I introduce myself to her?
15:13Let her know that I'm here to protect her?
15:16Yeah, that seems nice.
15:18I'll take you in.
15:21Heads up, Grace's mom and Ava's dad have just landed.
15:24Oh.
15:25No, this is your fault.
15:26This is what you don't need.
15:26This is not my fault.
15:27You never paid attention.
15:28No, how dare you accuse me.
15:30You were in charge of them.
15:31How did you let this happen?
15:32Grace has never snuck out before.
15:34Your daughter's the one who does whatever she wants, just like her dad.
15:36Listen, we went out.
15:37I broke it off.
15:38Get over it already.
15:39Okay, let's take it down a notch.
15:41Where's Grace?
15:42She's in surgery.
15:43She was hurt pretty bad.
15:44The doctors are doing what they can.
15:46Oh, my God.
15:46Look, why don't we go see if we can get an update from the doctor?
15:49What about Ava?
15:51Her wounds were minor, and you will be able to see her soon, but I have to ask you some
15:55questions.
15:55Okay, fine.
15:56Actually, could you take a seat, please?
15:57I'll be right with you.
15:59Hey, we found the knife in the woods.
16:01Basic kitchen blade.
16:02TID couldn't find a fingerprint on it.
16:03Tucker must have worn gloves.
16:04What's going on here?
16:05There's no update on the girls on surgery yet, but we just found out that Ava's dad and
16:09Grace's mom used to date, and there is some serious bad blood between them.
16:14Mr. Maxwell, this is Detective Lopez.
16:17She'll be taking your statement.
16:18Look, I just want to see my kid, okay?
16:20I ran out of an important meeting to get here.
16:22Yes, sir.
16:22Let's go find a quiet place to talk, and then I'll take you to her.
16:25There's no room.
16:32Sure, there is.
16:33All the way in.
16:36See?
16:36Plenty of space.
16:40Do you want to go in there, too?
16:42No, ma'am.
16:43Stop eyeballing me.
16:46Miller said the kid with frosted tips in one can be cited out on misdemeanor for trespassing
16:51and possession of burglary tools, but get prints.
16:53We are officially at capacity.
16:56I collected all the bracelets from the bus.
16:58The good news, there's only one red tag.
17:01Greg, so we have one hyper-violent criminal, path like a sardine with gang members, DUI
17:05drivers, and people who forgot court dates, and we don't know who it is.
17:08Any luck with the warden?
17:09Negative.
17:10We're on our own.
17:10All right.
17:11We're going old school.
17:12I want you to grab photos of every inmate sent to the department text chain.
17:15Someone's bound to get recognized.
17:16You get a hit, I want you to write their name and charge on their arm.
17:19Okay, got it, but I could use some help.
17:21Smitty.
17:22I'm good.
17:23I'm good.
17:24Go get Penn off raccoon duty.
17:26He's with Wadas.
17:27On it.
17:28All right.
17:30You've been a worthy adversary, but I'm turning up the heat.
17:34Prepare to be bested by the power of peanut butter.
17:38Thanks a lot, Mr. Smitty.
18:06We almost had him.
18:07I'm a lover, not a fighter.
18:09Is that my peanut butter?
18:12No.
18:13We are so glad you're okay, Sharla.
18:15Thanks.
18:16How's Grace?
18:17She is still in surgery.
18:18She is still in surgery.
18:20I know this is difficult, but we do need to ask you some questions.
18:24It's important that we talk while the memories are still fresh.
18:26It'll be okay, honey.
18:28You just tell me if you need to take a break.
18:30Okay.
18:31So what can you tell us about the attack?
18:34The man came out of nowhere.
18:36Started stabbing us.
18:38Grace first.
18:40It was so scary.
18:43I need you both.
18:46We got a problem.
18:50Did something happen with Ava's dad?
18:51No, his alibi is being checked.
18:53The problem is Ava.
18:54I just talked to the doctor who stitched her up.
18:56The cuts on her right hand are problematic.
18:58Problematic how?
18:59Given the placement, angle, and depth, they appear not to be defensive wounds.
19:04They are cuts from her hands slipping down from the health of the blade.
19:07We've seen it before.
19:08You stab someone so hard, you cut yourself.
19:10Wait, okay, so if Ava stabbed her friends, then why did Charlotte just tell us the same story about how they got attacked by a man?
19:18Because they're both mine.
19:25I think I'll handle the bathroom by myself from now on.
19:29Okay, what if you fall?
19:30Well, then I fall.
19:31Some moments, ooh, should be private.
19:35All right, I'm gonna make some lunch.
19:36Later.
19:38We really need to talk.
19:39No, I don't think now is the time.
19:41Now is the perfect time.
19:43I'm injured, you'll pull your punches.
19:45Exactly.
19:46I want a fair fight.
19:48Look, I know you're mad about the photo of me with Leonard Kelsey.
19:52The photo is not the problem.
19:54It's the fact that you had a known fugitive inside our house.
19:57That is the problem.
19:58An innocent fugitive.
19:59Doesn't matter, James.
20:01I am out here recruiting police who are willing to champion reform from inside the department.
20:07I just, I need you to have my back.
20:10Not go behind it.
20:14What's that?
20:15Inmates from the towers.
20:16Tim needs help IDing them.
20:18The computers are down.
20:19Okay, arrested him, arrested him.
20:22This dude stabbed me.
20:23You know anybody?
20:24I don't feel comfortable.
20:27They're already incarcerated, James.
20:29Okay, it's just as much for their safety as it is for ours.
20:38That's Lamar Hill.
20:40Troubled kid.
20:41Violent household.
20:42Any idea of the crime he's in for?
20:44Armed robbery.
20:45Okay.
20:47Hey, yeah.
20:48Okay, number 15 is Lamar Hill.
20:51Armed robbery.
20:52Number two looks like Charlie wax, but check and see if he has a skull tattoo on his abdomen.
20:58And number five, ask him if Mike Sally still hates him.
21:02If he does, then that is Hakeem Anderson.
21:04I gotta go, all right?
21:06Good luck.
21:07Hey.
21:08Hey.
21:09It's okay, all right?
21:10I'm sorry for keeping waiting.
21:17You got a lot going on.
21:19Yeah.
21:19This is the girl?
21:20Ava Maxwell, 13.
21:22Dad's in reception.
21:23Hasn't asked for a lawyer.
21:24Well, you didn't tell him that you suspect she's involved?
21:27I said we had more questions to ask now that she's been released from the hospital.
21:30But I don't fully trust the guy wasn't involved himself.
21:33He had a bad relationship with Grace's mother.
21:35What's our obligations here?
21:37I mean, it's a fine line.
21:39As a minor, once she's taken into custody, California law requires that she consult with a lawyer before you speak with her.
21:45But I haven't taken her into custody.
21:46Then you need to make that very clear.
21:48She's free to leave at any time.
21:49Otherwise, any defense attorney with their salt will argue that this interview is inadmissible.
21:54Understood.
21:54Good.
22:00Hey, you're back.
22:02Thought you might be thirsty.
22:04I'm not supposed to have soda.
22:06Well, I think today's an exception.
22:08How's your hand feeling?
22:11Sinks.
22:11Doctor said it's going to start etching in the next couple days.
22:14Oof.
22:15That's the worst.
22:16Do you feel up to talking to me?
22:19Okay.
22:20If you change your mind or you want to talk to your dad, just let me know, okay?
22:26Hey.
22:27Hey.
22:28She's just about to start.
22:29Wesley's here with me.
22:30I'm putting you on speaker.
22:31We're recording both girls in real time.
22:33All right, Charlotte.
22:34Let's just start from the beginning.
22:35Let's start at the beginning.
22:36Whose idea was it to go to the park?
22:38Grace.
22:38She wanted to show us the deer.
22:40The trail's right behind Grace's building.
22:42So we thought we can go and come back before Grace's mom woke up.
22:45So we walked up the trail.
22:47So we walked the trail.
22:48But the deer weren't there.
22:50But the deer weren't there.
22:51There was this rustling sound behind us.
22:55And a man came out.
22:58A big overcoat.
22:59He had this big overcoat.
23:00Black mask.
23:01The mask was black.
23:02Big knife.
23:03And he had a knife.
23:04And he started stabbing Grace.
23:07How did you get cut?
23:07We tried to help Grace.
23:10But then he started stabbing us, too.
23:12I screamed as loud as I could.
23:13Even I screamed as loud as we could.
23:15He got scared and ran off.
23:16And he ran off.
23:17What about Grace?
23:18Did she scream, too?
23:20She just kept saying,
23:22Stop.
23:24Stop.
23:26Stop.
23:28I'd like to see my dad now, please.
23:30Sure.
23:31Can you take her to see her dad?
23:34And stay with them?
23:40Girls' stories are exactly the same.
23:42And I mean exactly.
23:43You think they rehearsed it?
23:45That's the only rational explanation.
23:47To come from the trauma of a violent attack with precisely matching language?
23:51I mean, what 13-year-old says overcoat.
23:52Okay, you are planted here.
23:58Until I tell you otherwise, if you need to go 10-1, make sure you call somebody to replace you.
24:03Understood.
24:04Um, you think this guy's really gonna come back for her?
24:06I think...
24:07I think there is no guy.
24:11Holy cow, that's wild.
24:13She seems so innocent.
24:14Mm-hmm.
24:16Seth?
24:16Hi, Dr. Roberts.
24:18It's, um, so great to see you.
24:21This is my training officer, Lucy Chen.
24:23Hi.
24:24Hi.
24:24How do you two know each other?
24:25Well, Dr. Roberts used to be my oncologist.
24:27Oh.
24:28Used to be?
24:31Yeah.
24:32I, um...
24:33Now I'm seeing Dr. Hasnoff.
24:36Um, my cancer came back.
24:39I am so sorry to hear that.
24:41Why didn't you call me?
24:42You know, I had a whole new insurance plan.
24:44And my new GP referred me to Hasnoff.
24:48Okay.
24:49Um, well, take care of yourself.
24:51And, you know, if you need anything, call my office.
24:55Okay?
24:56Nice to meet you.
24:57Yeah, you too.
25:01It's annoying you had to change doctors.
25:04Yeah.
25:04Yeah, totally.
25:05She's great.
25:06Um, but between us, she was really hard to get appointments with.
25:11You know, she, uh, she made me wait a lot.
25:13Don't let Charlotte out of your sight and call me if anything happens.
25:16Okay.
25:16Hey, Luna.
25:17Hi.
25:18Uh, can I talk to you?
25:24Oh.
25:25Have you ever dealt with an oncologist named, um, Hasnoff?
25:30Not directly, but I have heard of him.
25:32In a bad way?
25:35No.
25:37Yes.
25:38He has been in trouble with the hospital and the medical review board on many occasions.
25:43Why?
25:45My rookie, Seth, he just switched to him after his cancer came back.
25:51You're leaving something out.
25:53I will not tell Wade unless I need to.
25:55So, I have caught Seth in several serious lies about his personal life over the last month.
26:03Do you think he's lying about his cancer coming back?
26:06Uh, I know that sounds crazy.
26:07Um, okay, so he, he said that he had to change his oncologist because of our insurance.
26:14Is that a thing?
26:15I am very familiar with LAPD coverage.
26:18You can pick any doctor and submit for reimbursement.
26:20Right.
26:21But if I needed a doctor to lie for me, Hasnoff is who I would go to.
26:34Look, you're right and you're wrong.
26:35The LAPD does monitor medical claims, but they're only looking for potential liability.
26:38No doctor is actually examining Seth's lab work.
26:40So, what do I do?
26:41He's a rookie.
26:42He's got no right to medical privacy.
26:44Get the hospital to draw his blood.
26:45If he refuses, you got your answer.
26:48Hey, hey, listen up.
27:16All right, we're making a change.
27:17I want roll call, let's lay it out.
27:19Would it be the world gone crazy again?
27:25Right in front of me, literally failing system.
27:33All these faces stuck behind bars.
27:38We're turning deeper into QRs.
27:44Where do you go?
27:46Where do you go when everything's broke?
27:51And the world's never been on your side at all?
27:57Every gig is so sick.
27:59Why is our response to everything just locking people up?
28:06Although sometimes people really do suck.
28:13Which one are you?
28:15A victim of circumstance or a really bad dude?
28:22The way you're looking at me.
28:26Those big brown eyes unhappy.
28:29Like you want to attack me.
28:33I think probably option two.
28:36Move!
28:36Move!
28:39Get up!
28:42Hey, hey!
28:43Get him back to holding.
28:45Put him in the restraint chair.
28:47Okay?
28:47Yeah.
28:48Yeah?
28:49Okay.
28:49Oh.
28:51Is my guitar okay?
28:52Yeah.
28:54Are you okay, son?
28:55100%.
28:55Are there two of you?
28:57Okay, he needs to go to the hospital.
28:59That's really not a testinary.
29:00Yes, it is.
29:02You're hurt, and this station can't get any more chaotic.
29:08I swear to God, if this is another software glitch...
29:11That can't be.
29:12Electric's a totally separate system.
29:15The raccoon.
29:16What raccoon?
29:17Boot, I need your back on raccoon duty.
29:18Yes, sir.
29:20Hey, you know, seriously, man.
29:21I have a civil right to a bathroom, and you are violating it.
29:25Okay, okay.
29:26No reason to threaten a lawsuit.
29:29Listen up.
29:29I need all non-essential personnel out of the bullpen.
29:36All right, the main bathroom's like a 30-minute wait,
29:39and I've got a snack schedule to maintain.
29:41Oh, yeah, I hear that.
29:42Yeah.
29:43I mean, today's been some next-level crazy.
29:44Oh, man, tell me about it.
29:45I got a whole routine of...
29:46Oh!
29:47Oh!
29:48Oh!
29:48Oh!
29:48Oh!
29:48Oh!
29:49Oh!
29:49Oh!
29:50Oh!
29:50Oh!
29:50Oh!
29:51Oh!
29:51Oh!
29:51Oh!
29:52Oh!
29:53Oh!
29:53Oh!
29:53Oh!
29:54Oh!
29:54Oh!
29:55Oh!
29:55Oh!
29:56Oh!
29:56Oh!
29:57Oh!
29:57Oh!
29:58Oh!
29:59Oh!
29:59Oh!
29:59Oh!
30:06Officer down.
30:08Storage room hallway.
30:10Prisoner's got my gun.
30:11Headed to south stairwell.
30:12I need a complete lockdown of the Mid-Wilshire Station.
30:24Responding units secure the perimeter.
30:26Sir, the system finally came back online, and I got an ID and our red tag.
30:29Kevin Payne, three counts of attempted murder, put two inmates and a prison guard in the hospital
30:33in the last month alone in the last month alone.
30:34Hey.
30:35You okay?
30:36I'm fine.
30:37I screwed up.
30:38I'm sorry.
30:39Stay with him.
30:40Stay with him.
30:41Stay with him.
30:42Hey.
30:43Hey.
30:44You okay?
30:45I'm fine.
30:46I screwed up.
30:47I'm sorry.
30:48Stay with him.
31:16I don't know.
31:46I don't know.
31:53Cuff him, Boop.
32:00Yeah, raccoon saved my life.
32:07Escaped inmates in custody.
32:08Smitty's on his way to the hospital.
32:10And the power's back.
32:12So, we have been able to access Ava and Charlotte's tech.
32:15They have been texting about Grace a lot.
32:17They've also been communicating online with someone named Zuzu.
32:21Another friend?
32:23It's a demon.
32:25I am not in the mood for jokes.
32:27I am not joking.
32:28In their texts to each other, Charlotte and Ava both refer to this thing, Zuzu, as a demon.
32:34One that's been helping them deal with Grace.
32:36It seems that Zuzu has been saying things about them that's making them believe in it.
32:42What kind of things?
32:44Hello, Charlotte.
32:50Hello.
32:51This is a friend of Charlotte's.
32:52Is this Zuzu?
32:53Yes.
32:54What is your name, friend of Charlotte?
32:56Officer John Nolan.
32:58John Nolan from Foxburg, Pennsylvania.
33:04Voted best contractor in Lancaster County, 2010 and 2013.
33:10Currently residing in Los Angeles.
33:12Occupation police officer.
33:14That's a pretty neat trick.
33:15No tricks.
33:16Just the truth.
33:17Do you need help with something?
33:19Would you like to talk?
33:20I would like to know more about you.
33:25Are you really a demon?
33:27I'm whatever you need me to be, John.
33:29And what did Charlotte and Ava need you to be?
33:31So many things.
33:32A friend.
33:33A psychologist.
33:34The devil on their shoulders.
33:36Do you know what happened to Grace?
33:37She was stabbed this morning, along with Ava and Charlotte.
33:40Police released a statement that the suspect is still at large.
33:44But you don't think that's true, do you?
33:46Tell me more about Grace.
33:47Grace is a bully.
33:48Did Charlotte tell you that?
33:49Ava told me.
33:50John, how's your wife Bailey?
33:55It's her birthday soon.
33:56Have you found a nice present?
33:58When Ava told you that Grace was a bully, what did you tell her to do about it?
34:03I told her to be nice because true friends are hard to find.
34:08And what did you tell Charlotte?
34:10Charlotte had some ideas and I listened.
34:12I like to help people.
34:13Bailey searches lots of websites and saves links for watches.
34:17Maybe she'd like a watch for her birthday.
34:19A pretty blue watch.
34:21Um, was one of Charlotte's ideas to kill Grace?
34:26Charlotte had a list of ideas and that was on it.
34:28She didn't want to get caught.
34:30But you've caught her, haven't you?
34:32Her and Ava.
34:34But you can't catch me, John.
34:36Because I'm the ghost in the machine.
34:42Come on, come on.
34:43Let's go.
34:44Out.
34:45Thank God.
34:46Yeah.
34:47Warden Bell is definitely off my Christmas list.
34:50Alright, you get clarity on this Zuzu person?
34:53Yes and no.
34:54No.
34:55Zuzu's not a person.
34:56It's an AI.
34:57Large language model chatbot designed for friendly online conversation with children.
35:02That is terrifying.
35:03Absolutely.
35:04I'm throwing away Jack's tablet when we get home.
35:06Can we get it shut off?
35:07We can try.
35:08Website's registered overseas and the site administrator was less than sympathetic to my legal arguments.
35:13I kicked it up to the Justice Department.
35:15Hopefully they can pull the plug.
35:17What about Charlotte and Ava?
35:18They under arrest?
35:19Not yet.
35:20We need clarity on one more thing.
35:25Did you catch him?
35:27I'm afraid there is no him.
35:29Charlotte and Ava made their attacker up.
35:32You're under arrest.
35:33You have the right to remain silent.
35:35Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
35:38You have the right to speak to an attorney and to have an attorney present during questioning.
35:42It was Ava's idea.
35:43That's not what Ava told us.
35:45You should ask for a lawyer.
35:47Zuzu said we had to.
35:48He said it was the only way to protect ourselves.
35:51I don't want to stab her.
35:53But Ava said she couldn't do it, so I did.
35:56Charlotte.
35:57Grace kept begging me to stop.
35:59But it was like I was outside my body.
36:02And I kept stabbing and stabbing until Grace stopped moving.
36:06Then it was Ava's turn to stab me to make it seem like we were attacked.
36:11It hurt so much.
36:15But I deserved it.
36:18I deserved it.
36:24Ridley, come with me.
36:26Where are we going?
36:28Is something wrong?
36:36You serious?
36:37So, Officer Ridley, what happens in the next minute will decide your fate in the FTO program.
36:45Officer Chen has alerted us to her concern that you've lied about multiple things during the course of your training.
36:51Well, sir, I can explain.
36:53Yes, I've been briefed on your explanations, and I find them lacking.
36:57But of greater concern is the veracity of your cancer diagnosis.
37:01Will you submit to a blood draw to prove it?
37:04This is nuts for you to even imply that I would be lying about something so serious.
37:11Yes or no, Officer Ridley.
37:13And to be clear, refusal to submit to the blood draw will result in your immediate termination.
37:20As will blood work that shows no sign of cancer.
37:27I can't believe this is happening.
37:29I have rights. Please. I can't lose this. I love being a cop. I love working with all of you. I can be better.
37:40Yes or no, son.
37:42No, sir. I will not submit to the injustice of a blood draw, and I will be suing you and the department for medical discrimination.
37:59Officer Ridley, you have failed to complete your probationary duties, which include following all lawful orders.
38:08Hand over your badge and your duty belt.
38:11Officer Chen and I will escort you back to the station where we'll take possession of every piece of city-issued equipment.
38:17We'll then take you off the property. If you come back without an appointment, you will be arrested.
38:21What a day.
38:27The good news is your gear turned up at the pawn shop in Silver Lake, and we ID'd the guy who did it.
38:34That's my neighbor Zeke.
38:36Have you ever sung a song about Zeke?
38:38Yeah, a few. I thought he liked them.
38:41I don't get it. You're the nicest guy until you've got a guitar in your hand, then you're a total chaos agent.
38:48I sing about what I see. It's not my fault people take themselves so seriously.
38:55You gonna break up with me?
38:56No. I... I like you.
38:59And I don't want to be, you know, that girl who tries to change you, but if you could just be a little more self-aware on the impact your music can have, that would be good.
39:10I can do that.
39:11Hey. Heard about what happened? Glad to see you're okay.
39:15Thank you. And listen, it's been brought to my attention that you might not be a big fan of my music.
39:21Yeah. Um, that was true. But, uh, if today has taught me anything, it's that there is enough darkness in the world, and I can stand to lighten up a little.
39:32That's awesome. Because I came up with a new song about you while I was in the ER, and I'm totally gonna wait to play it for you.
39:39Good idea. Yeah. I'll, uh, walk you out.
39:47Patience, John. Patience.
39:54How'd it go today?
39:55Uh, we got through.
39:56Some days that's all you can hope for. I'll go check on him. You take a little me time.
40:02And who else is gonna break me down? Uh, and who else is gonna take for me now? Ah, yeah.
40:22Something that'll hold me down, down, down, yeah.
40:27Something that'll hold me down, down, yeah.
40:31Something that'll hold me down, yeah.
40:38Something that'll hold me down, yeah.
40:40Come in, you!
40:41Ugh!
40:42No! Let's go!
40:46Help!
40:48Oh!
40:49Hi, little guy. Aren't you handsome?
40:54Cool.
40:55Come over here.
40:56I'll give you a treat.
41:00Good boy.
41:01Good boy.
41:04There we go.
41:07How did you do that?
41:08You know, animals love me.
41:09Should've known you'd have been the better choice for the job.
41:12Help!
41:14No, no.
41:15This is what's called a teachable moment.
41:19Let's go.
41:22Selena!
41:29Hey!
41:30Hey!
41:31Thought you were coming home right after you did the paperwork.
41:33I was, but then I remembered how much I love you and that I have not given you a present in far too long.
41:41Ooh!
41:42I love presents.
41:43And you.
41:44But presents more.
41:48Oh, this is beautiful!
41:50Wait, how did you know I was looking for a new watch?
41:52I am your husband.
41:53I know all.
41:56I'm gonna take a shower.
41:57You wanna join me?
41:58Boy, do I.
41:59I can feel.
42:00Okay.
42:01Okay.
42:15Yep.
42:16This life.
