00:01You ever have roommates?
00:02Sure.
00:03I mean, it's been a few decades.
00:06What was the proper etiquette when they would, like,
00:09would have sleepovers?
00:10You mean when they're hooking up?
00:11Yeah.
00:12Oh, yeah.
00:13No nudity in shared spaces.
00:15You seeing a little more of the boyfriend than you care to?
00:16So much more.
00:18You just set some boundaries.
00:19I have, regularly.
00:21And yet, I still got an eyeful of Willy Wonka this morning.
00:26Where are they going?
00:28Control, 7 out of 15.
00:30Advise status on any code 3 events near our location.
00:33Negative 7 out of 15.
00:35What was there, hurry?
00:36Let's find out.
00:46Smitty, go to channel 9.
00:48Go for Smitty.
00:50Where is your shop?
00:51Where's my shop?
00:52It's parked right out here.
00:56Wait a minute.
00:58I want to win for you like I know you want me to do.
01:16What's happening?
01:17I've been waiting for you to wake up.
01:19I think we should have a baby.
01:22Oh.
01:23Is that something you're open to?
01:25I'm, I, I, I don't know.
01:27I, I love being a dad, but I think I thought maybe my days
01:32of dirty diapers and sleepless nights were over.
01:36But you were about to foster Anna.
01:37No, yes, that's true.
01:39I was.
01:40But she had no one.
01:42I think it kind of, it felt like fate.
01:45Hmm.
01:46So is that a no?
01:47No, it's, it's a, I haven't even had a cup of coffee yet.
01:51Maybe we table this till later.
01:54Absolutely.
01:56This is a really big conversation.
01:58So let's just think about it and we can talk again after work.
02:01Right.
02:01OK.
02:08Yeah.
02:10On a scale of one to 10, how stressed are you?
02:1219.
02:13Yikes.
02:14Tim's still ghosting you?
02:15He's not ghosting me.
02:16We just haven't talked in a couple of days.
02:18Not speaking to the person you're dating is.
02:20Is the definition of ghosting.
02:22I realize that.
02:25So this probably isn't a good time to add more stress
02:27to your plate.
02:30What's wrong?
02:31Nothing.
02:32Nothing.
02:33It's just, I have a group of friends at school,
02:36and they're getting a place together,
02:37and I was thinking of joining them.
02:40You're moving.
02:41Kinda.
02:43That's great.
02:45Really?
02:46Yeah.
02:46I mean, you should live with people your own age.
02:49I mean, I miss seeing you every day.
02:51But if it makes you happy, then that's great.
02:54Good.
02:55I was worried you'd be upset.
02:57The house they picked is really cool.
02:59I'll show you pictures after school.
03:00I can't wait.
03:00I'm going to wait.
03:11Hey, have you talked to Tim recently?
03:13No.
03:14I heard he was taking vacation days.
03:15You think he's in trouble?
03:16Yes.
03:17I- He said that if he tells me what he's doing, I could put
03:22my career in jeopardy.
03:24That's alarming.
03:25I know.
03:26Should I- Should I tell Gray?
03:28No.
03:29Hard as it is, you need to trust him.
03:31Whatever he's doing, I'm sure Tim's got it handled.
03:33OK.
03:34So I'm just supposed to do nothing?
03:36Patrol like normal?
03:37Pretend like I'm not worried out of my mind?
03:39For now, yes.
03:43Thanks.
03:44And if you're just joining us, it's been a pitcher's clinic
03:50here, tied ball game in the bottom of the seventh floor.
03:54Hi.
03:55Oh, my God.
03:57What are you doing?
03:59Being a friend?
04:01What are you doing?
04:02Talk.
04:03I can't.
04:04For your own good.
04:06Are you engaged in a criminal act?
04:07Not at the moment.
04:09Then tell me.
04:10Angela, this goes sideways, and you're
04:13anywhere near it.
04:14You could be fired.
04:15If Lucy gets fired, it's a problem.
04:17If I get fired, I start living off my husband's trust fund
04:20and call it one o'clock.
04:22It's a spill.
04:24I'm tailing this guy from my old unit, Ray Watkins.
04:28Spent his deployment ripping off Iraqi locals.
04:31Got a couple of my men killed.
04:34Till a few days ago, I thought he was KIA.
04:37Somehow he survived, and now he's living under a different name
04:39as a hired gun.
04:40So why tail him?
04:41At a minimum, he's AWOL.
04:43Why not just detain him and turn him over to the military police?
04:46Because he's got something on me.
04:48He knows I lied on the report about his death.
04:52So you're trying to catch him in a fresh crime,
04:54arrest him for what he's doing now?
04:56Exactly.
04:58Cool.
04:59I'm in.
05:01You sure?
05:03Yeah.
05:04I got your back, boo.
05:07You're having a baby?
05:09That's so great.
05:10That's not what I said.
05:11I said, Bailey wants to have a baby.
05:14And you don't?
05:15Because you're older and feel like your child raising years
05:21are behind you?
05:21Look, I loved raising Henry.
05:24It was incredible.
05:26But there is a lot I want to accomplish on the job.
05:28And I don't have a lot of time left because I am older.
05:32OK, I get that.
05:33But have you seen babies?
05:36They're so cute.
05:37And I feel like you should have, like, three.
05:39OK, I am deleting Bailey's number from your phone.
05:43Oh, we're being assigned to assist CitySafe LA
05:46in cleaning up an encampment of unhoused residents.
05:49LA County Sheriff is bringing a group of inmates to assist.
05:52Ma'am, ma'am, excuse me, ma'am.
05:56I cannot let you do it.
05:57Everything OK?
05:58Yeah.
05:59No, he won't let me bring drinks to my daughter
06:01and her friends.
06:02Come on.
06:03They're dying in this heat.
06:04Ma'am, it is 70 degrees.
06:05Is your daughter homeless?
06:06No, she's one of the inmates.
06:08Mom!
06:09Hi.
06:10Hey!
06:12Trustee, get back here.
06:14Oh.
06:15I miss you.
06:16Me too.
06:17You smell good.
06:18Oh, you don't, but I still love you.
06:19No contact.
06:20OK, hey, hey, what's the harm?
06:22We're literally surrounded by police.
06:23You're not the one who has to search up
06:25for contraband after this.
06:26You, leave.
06:28You, back to work.
06:29See you in two weeks.
06:31Yeah.
06:34I hope you have a horrible day.
06:37Give me the bag!
06:38Let it go!
06:39Let it go!
06:40Let it go!
06:41Hey!
06:42Hey!
06:42Let it go!
06:43Hey, what's going on?
06:44She's trying to steal my bag.
06:45Sir, no, she's not, OK?
06:47We're going to pack up your belongings
06:48and send them to the shelter.
06:49Yeah, yeah, that's the same thing you said last time.
06:51When I got my tip back, it was ripped in three places.
06:54OK, how about we let him hold on to the bag for a little bit?
06:57Well, hang on, hang on, hang on.
07:01I'll give it to you, sir.
07:02Back up.
07:03Hey, Officer Nolan.
07:09You remember the Karina Lewis case?
07:11Yeah, college gymnast.
07:13Boyfriend murdered her a few years back,
07:15but the body was never found.
07:16Yeah, this is her bag, and we're missing along with her.
07:21Sir, where did you get this bag?
07:22Hey, I found that.
07:24I swear.
07:25I mean, this place just became a crime scene.
07:27Lock it down.
07:28Yes, sir.
07:29Officer Nolan!
07:30Oh, what now?
07:32I just found these in the garbage can.
07:34One of the prisoners just escaped.
07:36So where'd you get this?
07:38Well, I didn't steal it.
07:39I'll assume just because we homeless is worse.
07:41I don't assume anything, but stealing it is better
07:43than taking it off a murder victim,
07:44making yourself a suspect.
07:46Yeah, well, it was neither of those things, all right?
07:48I found the bag in Griffith Park last week.
07:52I can show you where.
07:53OK, good.
07:54Let's go.
07:55You're riding with me.
07:56Yes, ma'am.
07:57Pay off.
07:58Maybe he's smuggling something into the country.
07:59Or out.
08:01Or maybe Ray lost a bet and is innocent.
08:02I mean, you've been following this guy for two days
08:04and haven't seen anything remotely criminal.
08:06How long are you going to keep this up?
08:07Long as it takes.
08:09Really?
08:10You just walk away from your job, your relationship with Lucy,
08:12to arrest a guy you haven't thought about in a decade?
08:14Yeah.
08:27What?
08:28If you lied in a report, you must have had a good reason.
08:32They're trying to protect Ray's family
08:34so they can get his death benefits.
08:35Noble.
08:36Lucy would understand that.
08:37Yeah, but she'd still get in trouble
08:38if she didn't notify IA about my transgression.
08:40True.
08:44This is very irritating.
08:46I don't think you're just protecting her.
08:48I think you're protecting yourself.
08:49There's something else you did that you don't want to admit.
08:52And you're basing this on?
08:53I'm your BFF.
08:54I know you.
08:56I'm a grown man.
08:57I don't have BFFs.
08:58Technically, you can only have one BFF.
09:05I'm going to take a closer look.
09:07I can wake up.
09:08Come on.
09:26Mystery man had diplomatic plates.
09:39We follow him or stay with Ray.
09:40Right.
09:41I can ask my friend at state for help IDing the new player.
09:44Missing inmate is Theresa Vaughn.
09:46Girl, you allowed to make contact with a potential accomplice.
09:48OK, you're blaming me because you failed to do your job?
09:50What the hell did you say?
09:51OK, we can play the blame game later.
09:54Right now, we have a fugitive to find.
09:56I agree.
09:56It's most likely the mother that helped her escape.
09:58That's our first lead.
09:59We can put a bolo out for Theresa.
10:01Why was Theresa incarcerated?
10:03Assault.
10:04But she only had 10 days left on a sentence.
10:07That doesn't make any sense.
10:08Trying to escape would add at least a year.
10:10Why risk it?
10:11I'll just refueling the details in Karina's case.
10:16She disappeared 19 months ago.
10:18Boyfriend was the immediate suspect.
10:20He ultimately confessed to strangling her
10:22in his apartment down in Culver City.
10:23And he claims he blacked out afterwards
10:26and forgot where he left the body.
10:27Any of this looking familiar to you?
10:30Yeah, a little.
10:32I was trying to find a place to sleep.
10:34Everything was so wet because of the storm.
10:36It was around here, though.
10:37You know, big flat rock.
10:39There.
10:40There it is, right there, right now.
10:42Look, it was all muddy when I went through it.
10:45I was hoping to find some cash or some food on the inside,
10:48but it was only a couple of school books.
10:49Yeah, the rain could have dislodged the bag,
10:51causing it to go downhill.
11:10Karina Lewis.
11:11Oh, at least now her family can give her a proper burial.
11:22You said the boyfriend confessed to strangling her?
11:24Yeah.
11:25Then why is there a bullet wound in her head?
11:27That's a small caliber, 22, maybe 38.
11:30Why confess to the murder but lie about the method?
11:33It makes no sense.
11:34Theresa Vaughn was serving six months for assault
11:37on a woman she claimed was hooking up with her boyfriend.
11:40I'm not sure that's the person I'd be assaulting.
11:42Not that violence is ever the answer.
11:447-M-15, 7-M-6 pulled over your BOLO alert.
11:46Brenda Vaughn, fugitive's mother, 3rd and Oak.
11:49Copy that.
11:50Show us responding.
11:51No sign of the fugitive.
12:01I told you.
12:03Would you mind going to her house in case
12:05her daughter decides to show up there?
12:06You got it.
12:08I get how this looks, but I have nothing
12:11to do with my daughter's escape.
12:12Any idea where your daughter might have gone?
12:14No.
12:15And any place is better than jail, right?
12:17Not when you have two weeks left on your sentence.
12:19Why would she throw that away now?
12:21Did you say something to her?
12:23Tell her a secret when you were giving her a hug?
12:24No.
12:25OK, so then you just expect me to believe
12:26it's a coincidence she escaped right after you showed up.
12:30I can't control what you believe, but it's the truth.
12:33Do you have kids?
12:34Yeah, I have one.
12:35Then you understand that I would do anything
12:38to help my daughter, including practicing tough love.
12:41OK, if Theresa asked me to help her escape,
12:44I would have told her it is the dumbest idea I'd ever heard
12:46and to suck it up and finish her time.
12:48Any idea who might help your daughter despite the concept
12:51consequences?
12:52She has a lot of friends, but I doubt any of them
12:55would stick their necks out for her.
12:56What about the boyfriend?
12:57Mike?
12:58No.
12:59He broke up with her right after she attacked Doreen.
13:02Well, that's where.
13:04That's where what?
13:05Theresa's still pissed about the affair.
13:08She told me she was planning on doing some permanent damage
13:13to Doreen when she got out.
13:15Control, I'm going to need an address on a Doreen.
13:17Davis.
13:18Davis.
13:19Home and work.
13:26Doreen?
13:27Yeah?
13:28What's going on?
13:30Theresa Vaughn escaped from custody this morning.
13:33Escaped?
13:33Yeah, but we're going to make sure you're safe.
13:35Yeah, you don't need to.
13:37Theresa came by like half an hour ago,
13:39said that she got released early, apologized for everything,
13:44said that she should have listened to me
13:46when I said I didn't hook up with Mike.
13:48Wait, so there was no affair?
13:49No.
13:50Mike and I were friends.
13:51That's it.
13:52But he was definitely cheating on her with someone.
13:55What did she say?
13:56Where she was going next?
13:57No, just she finally knew who to blame.
14:04You're too close.
14:05I can't tell in my nose with only one vehicle.
14:07I need to keep them in sight.
14:07We're going to get made.
14:08You should let me drive.
14:09I got it.
14:26I come in peace.
14:29Where's your friend?
14:30Ooh.
14:31Hey, Mama.
14:32I thought you said this guy was smart,
14:34because all I see is slick.
14:35What's the plan here, Sarge?
14:36You're just going to follow me around all week while I wait
14:39for my mom to kick it?
14:40And we both know you're not here for your mom.
14:44Mark bailed on you, huh?
14:45Did he lose his nerve?
14:47Maybe you did.
14:49Was there a falling out over what to do with me?
14:53Let me guess, he was Team Extermination,
14:56and you were Team Justice.
14:59You know, this guy's nickname in the service was the Reaper.
15:04Sad when one of your heroes grows conscience.
15:10I'm going to go now.
15:11I'm open to some company if you want to live.
15:14I'll pass.
15:16But we'll be seeing you again real soon.
15:18Can't wait.
15:27Thank you for meeting with us.
15:28Yeah, no problem.
15:30Actually, you could help me out with something.
15:32I have to approve a headshot for my campaign website.
15:35Which one of these looks more district attorney-ish?
15:39The one on the right.
15:41I agree.
15:43Uh, we need to talk about a case that you prosecuted last year.
15:48Carina Lewis?
15:49Carina Lewis.
15:51Oh, uh, yeah, the boyfriend strangled her.
15:53Full confession, he pled out doing 20 at Soledad.
15:56Right. Well, we found her remains today.
15:59Well, hey, that's great news.
16:01The family can finally put her to rest.
16:02Yes, but the only problem is she was not strangled.
16:06She was shot in the head with a .22.
16:09Boyfriend lied in his statement.
16:11Right, which clearly was coerced.
16:13Uh, Officer Thorson is getting ahead of himself.
16:17But it is a significant inconsistency.
16:20Is there any chance it was a false confession?
16:23No.
16:24Are you serious?
16:25That fast, just no?
16:26Officer Thorson, wait for me outside, please.
16:30Ma'am, who-
16:31Go. Now.
16:39I apologize, he clearly has brought some of his own history into this.
16:42Mm-hmm.
16:44Look, he weren't there, Detective, and neither was he.
16:48The investigation was solid.
16:50The boyfriend had a history of violence.
16:52Hair matching the victim was found in the trunk of his car.
16:54Witnesses heard them arguing.
16:56I could have gotten a conviction even without his confession.
16:59So kindly invite Officer Thorson to take his self-righteousness
17:02and stick it where the sun don't shine.
17:05Are we done here?
17:06Yes, sir.
17:13Is he really not going to do anything about this?
17:14You cannot talk to a prosecutor like that.
17:16Detective.
17:17Ever! Do you understand?
17:20Yes.
17:22Does this mean we're abandoning the investigation?
17:24There is no we in this, Officer Thorson.
17:26This is not our investigation.
17:28It is mine.
17:29Which means that the risk of pissing off someone
17:32who will likely be the next district attorney falls on me.
17:36Okay.
17:37Does this mean you're abandoning the investigation?
17:40No, it means that we need to find undeniable evidence
17:43that Karina Lewis was killed by someone other than the guy
17:45who was currently sitting in prison
17:47before we can even think about coming back here.
17:49Why are you smiling?
17:52Because you said we.
17:54Were there any other suspects, aside from the boyfriend?
18:01Yeah.
18:02A guy used to work with Karina at her off-campus job, Ryan Jones.
18:05And fun fact, the detective that interviewed him
18:07said Ryan was quite the gun collector.
18:09So it is likely he would own a .22.
18:11Exactly.
18:12In my professional opinion, I'm not sure
18:14that he's going to be a gun collector.
18:16I'm not sure what he's going to do.
18:18Exactly.
18:19In my professional opinion, his alibi was super shaky.
18:21Need I remind you, five minutes,
18:24that your professional opinion is still a work in progress?
18:28Noted.
18:30But Ryan claimed he was hanging out
18:31at his girlfriend's apartment.
18:33That is a little shaky.
18:35But it is nowhere near enough to move the needle.
18:42Kids here?
18:43They're at my mom's.
18:43I know this is going to pick him up on his way home, which
18:45makes this the perfect time for you to tell me why you think
18:47this is all your fault.
18:49I don't.
18:50Come on.
18:51Sit.
18:58There's no way you let a loser like Ray live under your skin
19:01if you didn't blame yourself for more than just lying
19:03on a report.
19:04Look.
19:07I had been squad leader most of my second tour.
19:11Top performance ratings, fast track to promotion,
19:15unless my battalion commander found out that a soldier in my
19:18unit was engaged in rampant criminality.
19:21I thought if I brought Ray in myself,
19:24I could keep it within the squad.
19:26No harm, no foul, and I would be Sergeant First Class in no time.
19:31So we went after him, unsanctioned, under the radar.
19:39We located him in a village just outside of Mosul.
19:44As soon as he found out he was trapped,
19:46he called in an airstrike right on top of us.
19:51It was like the world exploded.
19:55I thought I was going to die, Angela.
19:59But I got lucky.
20:00The Humvee that Mark and I were behind, it saved us.
20:03But Henderson and Coyle, they were blown apart.
20:16I still don't know how Ray survived.
20:18I mean, the building he was in was almost completely destroyed.
20:22There, we found his mangled dog tags in the wreckage.
20:26I mean, there was, there was so much blood.
20:31Without question, we thought he was KIA.
20:35I mean, it was, it was a spectacular failure of leadership.
20:45Yeah, I put my career above my oath.
20:49And two soldiers, two decent men,
20:53didn't come home that night.
20:57And I'm going to have to live with that for the rest of my life.
21:00I'm going to have to live with that for the rest of my life.
21:02I'm going to have to live with that for the rest of my life.
21:03I'm going to have to live with that for the rest of my life.
21:09I'm going to have to live with that for the rest of my life.
21:12I'm going to have to live with that for the rest of my life.
21:16What are you still doing here?
21:17What are you still doing here?
21:27I'm just going over the Karina Lewis case.
21:30Right. I heard they found her body.
21:34Detectives questioned this guy for over 10 hours without his lawyer, right?
21:38He's young. He's scared.
21:41In retrospect, it's possible he could have been coerced.
21:44Okay, so take another look.
21:45If he was, get the conviction overturned.
21:48It's not that simple.
21:50Because you're running for DA.
21:51Yeah.
21:52How's it going to look when it comes out that you railroaded an innocent man?
21:54Hey, I didn't railroad anybody. This was a very solid case.
21:57Based on a possibly questionable confession.
22:00Yeah.
22:10Well, you really dove in.
22:12Yeah, I wanted to make an informed decision.
22:14And?
22:15And I'm more sure than ever.
22:19I want to have a baby.
22:23And you don't.
22:24And I don't know.
22:26Some days, this job is all I can handle.
22:30When I had Henry, I was the boss.
22:33I never had to miss a school play or a parent-teacher conference.
22:37I don't have that now, which means I can't be the kind of dad I want to be, or the cop I want to be.
22:45So that's a no.
22:47It's a big decision.
22:49I just, I need more than a day to think about it.
22:51Well, if you were trying to figure out a way to let me down easy, don't.
22:55But the longer you let me have hope, the more painful it'll be.
22:59Just in time.
23:11Ordered pizza.
23:13Oh, thank you.
23:15I have been dreading having to cook.
23:18Honey news on the tin front?
23:19Not yet.
23:20So I'm just practicing trust and patience, and I hate it.
23:28That was quick.
23:29I'm going to get changed.
23:34Hey there.
23:35I'm Ray.
23:36Tim's friend.
23:38But he's not here.
23:40Well, that's cool.
23:42Lucy?
23:45Yeah?
23:49Can I help you?
23:50I hope so.
23:52You Tim's girlfriend?
23:56Oh, you don't need that.
23:57I'm here to help you, not hurt you.
23:59Yeah, I think I'm going to pass.
24:01Um, you need to leave.
24:03Tim never mentioned me?
24:04I have no idea who you are.
24:05So how would I know if he has mentioned you or not?
24:08Why don't you call Tim?
24:09Ask him about Mosul.
24:12The only phone call I'm going to make is for an ambulance to wheel you out of here,
24:16unless you get out.
24:17Right now.
24:18No problem.
24:21You tell Tim to take a knee.
24:23I'm going to be gone in a few days, unless he gives me a reason to stick around.
24:27Who the hell is that guy?
24:41Uh-oh.
24:42What?
24:45Hey, what's wrong?
24:46Where are you?
24:48Lucy.
24:48Where the hell are you?
24:51What happened?
24:52Your buddy Ray stopped by.
24:54Are you okay?
24:54Do I look okay?
24:56Let's give him a minute.
24:58What if Tamara had been there by herself when that creep showed up?
25:01I'm sorry.
25:02I had no idea.
25:02No, no more excuses, Tim.
25:04You have to tell me what's going on with you.
25:06Right now.
25:08Now.
25:12His name is Ray Watkins.
25:13He was under my command in Iraq.
25:14I thought he was killed in action, but he's back and he's going to hurt someone if I don't
25:17do something about it.
25:18None of that, none of it explains why you cut me out.
25:23No, it doesn't.
25:24Stop trying to protect me, Tim.
25:26I'm sorry.
25:27I can't.
25:27Okay?
25:28I won't.
25:28You read Lopez in.
25:30It's different.
25:31She has less to lose than you.
25:33Please.
25:34Just steer clear of this from me, okay?
25:36I can't.
25:37I won't.
25:38You clearly need help, and I am done being the good girlfriend, okay?
25:42You don't have to tell me everything, but you are going to let me in.
25:48He is about a year old now, right?
25:51Yeah, that's right.
25:52So she's sleeping pretty good.
25:54You really do not remember what it is like to have young kids, do you?
25:57Well, I guess I don't.
25:58I'm running on a cold brew and adrenaline, but, you know, it's worth it.
26:02Right.
26:03Are you and Bailey thinking about having a kid?
26:05She is.
26:06Ah.
26:07I just don't know that I can juggle a kid and the job.
26:10Well, I'm in it.
26:11So does Lopez, so did Gray.
26:12Right, but you're younger, so is he, just starting out in your careers.
26:16I am a little late to the party.
26:18I've got maybe 10 years to maximize my career before it's all but over.
26:22Look, it's a cliche because it is true.
26:25There's really never a good time to have a kid, but, you know, you make it work.
26:31I know who was sleeping with Teresa's boyfriend.
26:33So this is her and Mike last year before she was arrested.
26:35Anything look familiar?
26:38Teresa's mom was wearing that shirt yesterday, and Teresa said she smelled great.
26:41Yeah, because she smelled like her boyfriend, and she didn't realize it until after.
26:44And when she figured it out, she lost her mind and took off.
26:48Mike will apologize to Doreen, and I go straight to her mom's place.
26:51Well, we've had a shop parked outside her mom's place since she escaped.
26:56But not my place.
26:59Miss Marcos, thanks for coming in on short notice.
27:01Of course.
27:02Miss Marcos, um, you mentioned this had something to do with that horrible Karina Lewis murder?
27:10Yes.
27:10Your boyfriend at the time, Ryan Jones, used to work with Karina.
27:13Is that right?
27:14Uh, yes.
27:15And according to your statement, the night of the murder, he was with you having dinner.
27:22Do you recall what time he arrived?
27:23I don't know.
27:26Um, whatever I said back then must be right.
27:28Well, you said 6 p.m.
27:30Okay, then it was 6.
27:33Why am I here?
27:34They caught the guy.
27:36We actually have new evidence indicating that he might be innocent.
27:40New evidence that implicates Ryan.
27:42He said it wasn't a big deal.
27:50He said that it would make things easier if I just said he was there at 6.
27:55What time did you actually see Ryan that night?
27:59Not until 9.
28:01Officer Thorson, a word?
28:03Yes, ma'am.
28:05Excuse me.
28:05She just blew up Ryan's alibi.
28:12He's our guy.
28:12What are you doing interviewing a witness without me?
28:17I'm sorry.
28:18I should have notified you.
28:19Are you really this dense?
28:20Are you just actively trying to jam me up?
28:22No, it's not about you.
28:23This is about an innocent man sitting in prison.
28:26Okay, listen.
28:26I know that this case is personal for you.
28:29But if you keep going rogue, you are going to ruin this man's chances of ever being released.
28:35Okay, the paths to a new trial are incredibly narrow and almost all procedural.
28:42New evidence, even overwhelming evidence, does not guarantee his release.
28:46Okay, well that's not right.
28:47No, it is not.
28:48But it is the system that we are working in, which means that every step needs to be carefully considered.
28:56Okay, well, Ryan's girlfriend just admitted to lying for him.
29:01She didn't see him until 9 that night.
29:03So what's our next step?
29:10Okay, we need a murder weapon.
29:12If we can match the ballistics from a .22 in Ryan's possession with the bullet that the Emmy found in Karina, then we have a case.
29:19But to get the gun, we need probable cause, to get a warrant, and right now, we do not have that.
29:28Brenda's here.
29:31Sounds like Teresa's here, too.
29:32Control, 715. We have an on-view 415 family at 1330 on Arlington.
29:44Hey, you guys are pregnant. I thought you were going to want kids.
29:47Oh, honestly, I'm with Teresa at this point.
29:49All right.
29:50It's just a bat.
29:51Let's split up.
29:51I'm going to go around back.
29:53Oh, wait.
29:53Look at her waistband.
29:54Hey, come on. See? That's enough.
29:56All right. That changes things.
29:57She's enraged. It's going to be hard to get her to calm down.
30:00Get back to the cruiser.
30:01I want you to come racing in hot after 30 seconds, lights and sirens.
30:04Copy that.
30:13Hey, come on.
30:15Elise, you're under arrest.
30:31And for the record, you are a terrible mother.
30:36Hey, my guy at stake came through.
30:38Dipped him out of plates, we sent him blown to the Turkish embassy.
30:40But the guy in the car wasn't Turkish.
30:42He was Venezuelan.
30:43Gustav Martinez, military counterintelligence specialty
30:46is cracking down on anyone considered an enemy of the state.
30:49Dissidents.
30:50If Ray met with Gustav, it had to be for a job.
30:53Makes sense.
30:53Gustav can't operate domestically,
30:55so he hires Ray to kidnap or kill anyone on the outside home.
30:58According to my guy, most likely candidate is Elena Acosta,
31:02a political activist.
31:06Hello?
31:07This is Sergeant Tim Bradford with the LAPD.
31:08We just received a credible threat on your life.
31:10They're here!
31:13Hail the name Ray Watkins right now.
31:15Do it.
31:16Ray Watkins!
31:17Ray Watkins!
31:18Me Watkins!
31:19Me Watkins!
31:20Oh, no!
31:22Ray Watkins!
31:25Hey, Tim.
31:26We know about the Venezuelans, Ray,
31:27so let Elena go right now,
31:29and I'll push the DA's office to go easy on you.
31:31Sorry, buddy.
31:31I got a job to do and a reputation to uphold.
31:34We're gonna have to let this one play out.
31:36Catch me if you can.
31:40All right.
31:45Put her inside.
31:46I'll let Neil know the container's ready to load.
31:53I'm square.
31:59Get on the ground.
32:00Whoa, whoa, whoa!
32:00Get out!
32:02It's over, Ray!
32:04Stop!
32:04Show me your hands right now.
32:06Got your entire crew in custody.
32:07You should have changed it up after you caught me following you.
32:09Yeah.
32:10I get a little cocky sometimes.
32:12I didn't know you'd be on me this early.
32:15You know killing me is your only play here.
32:19I'm not gonna kill you, Ray.
32:21There's no airstrike you can call in this time.
32:25Ha, ha, ha.
32:26Kidding.
32:28I am the airstrike.
32:31I'm about to blow up your whole life.
32:34Sergeant Bradford, this is a D.I.I., or Department-Initiated Investigation, which could result in discipline.
32:41Your continued employment with the LAPD is contingent on your full and truthful answers to my questions.
32:49I understand.
32:51I want to be clear.
32:52Other people will deal with your crimes.
32:53I'm not questioning you as a suspect.
32:56My job is to investigate your accusations against Sergeant Bradford.
33:01On that point, I am crystal clear.
33:03When did you become aware that Ray Watkins was alive?
33:08Last week.
33:09I saw him entering a 7-Eleven.
33:10Bradford and Mark Greer tracked me down, threatened me in my mother's home.
33:16Was your mother there to witness that?
33:18Yeah, but she's in the hospital.
33:20Doctors say it'll be a miracle if she wakes up.
33:23I'm sorry.
33:24Don't be.
33:26But Mark, he was there.
33:27I haven't seen Mark Greer in a decade.
33:31I still get the occasional Christmas card.
33:33According to the FAA, there's no record of Mark Greer flying into Los Angeles.
33:38No local credit card charges.
33:40His phone never left Arlington.
33:42And the Army shows him as on base for the entire two weeks.
33:47Clever man.
33:48He was planning to kill me, so he covered his tracks.
33:50Did I conspire to commit murder with a guy I haven't seen in 10 years?
33:54No.
33:55So Ray Watkins is lying.
33:57A little tip when dealing with Ray.
33:58If his lips are moving, he's lying.
34:00Tim lied on the after-action report.
34:03He said I was killed in action.
34:06I look dead to you.
34:07Why would I lie?
34:08My whole squad had been hit with friendly fire.
34:10I had lost three of my men.
34:11Technically two.
34:12Right, but I didn't know that until a few days ago.
34:15And it shook me.
34:16Ray Watkins was AWOL.
34:19Why not contact military police when you learned he was alive?
34:22I wanted to be sure before I sounded the alarm.
34:24Here's the truth.
34:25Bradford wanted to protect his career, so he lied about what actually happened.
34:30He participated in a cover-up, and he knowingly falsified official reports.
34:36These are serious accusations.
34:38Is any part of what Ray said true?
34:42No.
34:43None of it.
34:54Hi, uh, excuse me, can you...
35:05Hi, I'm so sorry to interrupt, but, um, what are you using?
35:1144 million.
35:13Is it heavy?
35:15You tell me.
35:18Oh, wow.
35:19You must be really strong to hold that.
35:22I can't.
35:23I live.
35:24Oh, okay.
35:25So I am trying to decide on what to buy, and I want something that's light, but still, like,
35:30accurate.
35:31Um, 38 is a good option.
35:34Okay, I've heard of that.
35:36Um, a friend of mine, she has a 22 Ruger, and she loves it.
35:41She says it's light enough to hold in her purse.
35:45A Ruger.
35:46A Ruger.
35:47Mm-hmm.
35:48A Ruger, right.
35:50Yeah.
35:5022 is a good choice for a delicate woman like you.
35:54No recoil.
35:56Oh, okay.
35:58Do you have one I can try?
36:03Please.
36:04Yeah, sure, I have a few with me.
36:06Okay.
36:14Oh, wow.
36:15That is super light.
36:16Can I?
36:17Yeah?
36:17Okay.
36:18Okay.
36:36So, I had a chance to look over the ballistics report.
36:40The bullets that you collected are a match for the bullet that killed Karina Lewis.
36:45An arrest warrant has been approved, and I will be signing a motion to vacate the conviction.
36:50Really?
36:50I wouldn't have prosecuted if we'd had this evidence at the time.
36:53That's awesome.
36:54Yeah.
36:56I probably shouldn't hug you, right?
36:57Right.
36:58Let us know if you need anything.
36:59Let us know if you need anything.
37:00Will do.
37:01And thank you.
37:03Well, thank you for sticking with it.
37:06Good job.
37:06And your campaign.
37:11Well, doing the right thing, no matter how difficult, should be seen as a character strength, not a flaw.
37:18Nice.
37:19You float that one by the advisors yet?
37:20Damn right I did.
37:21They loved it.
37:22I'll bet they did.
37:22Big plans this weekend?
37:24Uh, hide in my room, wear blinders to the kitchen.
37:28Yeah, I need a move, huh?
37:30Definitely.
37:31What about you?
37:32What's going on with the whole baby situation?
37:34Mostly, I've just been avoiding thinking about it all day.
37:38And now?
37:41And now?
37:41Well, having a kid...
37:45It's been the greatest joy of my life.
37:56So why would I want to deny her that?
38:01In light of Ray's numerous crimes, his statements against you appear retaliatory in nature.
38:08Because your after-action reports have been accepted as factual by your military superiors,
38:13which there's no evidence to suggest otherwise.
38:16This D.I.I. is closed with a finding of not sustained.
38:22Thank you, sir.
38:24Always a pleasure.
38:26Yeah.
38:27We should get the wives together soon.
38:28Have some dinner.
38:29I would love that.
38:35You know this is a NOVA.
38:37I know.
38:37You violated procedure in pursuit of a suspect and roped in two other officers?
38:42What if Ms. Acosta had been killed because you didn't utilize proper channels and resources?
38:49It was wrong.
38:49I know.
38:50I'm required to notify your Metro Commander.
38:54What she does with it is up to her.
38:55Sir, I...
38:55You're dismissed.
38:56I...
38:57Come here.
39:11How did it go with A.A.?
39:18I lied about everything.
39:27I mean, I saved my job, right?
39:32Protected you and Lopez?
39:33It was an impossible situation.
39:36I would have done the same thing if I was in your place.
39:40You wouldn't have been in my place.
39:43You never would have put self-interest over your team.
39:46Look, you thought you could handle it.
39:48You were wrong, but you made it right, so it's fine.
39:51Yeah.
39:51Yeah, I wish it was that easy.
39:55Lucy, I just lied to two men I deeply respect.
39:59Okay?
39:59I just betrayed everything I thought was right about myself.
40:03No, no.
40:04You ought to let me finish, okay?
40:05This is very hard for me to say.
40:06Okay.
40:08Lucy, I've been lying to myself for a long time.
40:12That's clear to me now.
40:14And I can't just go back to the way things were.
40:19Not right now.
40:23Maybe never.
40:27Wait.
40:27Are you breaking up with me?
40:35I'm sorry.
40:38You don't get to do that.
40:41You don't get to lie to me and then use that as an excuse to leave me.
40:48Okay?
40:48That's not okay.
40:49That's not okay.
40:50What you're doing is not okay.
40:52I know.
40:54You.
40:54You are an incredible person.
40:58No.
40:59No, you're incredible, okay?
41:01You deserve so much better.
41:03Oh, my God.
41:06That's why I'm walking away.
41:08Don't do this.
41:09Why are you doing this?
41:11Why are you doing this?
41:13I'm sorry.
41:13I'm sorry.
41:24Are you learning baby sign language?
41:35Maybe.
41:39How about we just forget about the elephant in the room for tonight,
41:43make some dinner, and enjoy some time together?
41:47I think that's a great idea.
41:48Well, you may want to lay off the wine if we're going to get you pregnant later tonight.
41:55Is that what we're doing?
41:57Oh, yes.
41:59With much enthusiasm.
42:01Are you sure?
42:04Hydrating.
42:06Do we have to wait till after dinner?
42:10Nope.
42:11Grab my water.
42:18You're in trouble.
42:19Bye.
42:41Damn it.
42:56Damn it.
43:00Damn it.
43:01Damn it.
43:02Damn it.
43:02Damn it.
43:04Damn it.
43:06Damn it.
43:08Damn it.
43:08Damn it.
43:08Damn it.
43:09Damn it.
43:09Damn it.
43:09Damn it.
43:09Damn it.
43:10Damn it.
43:10Damn it.
43:10Damn it.
43:11Damn it.
