Short filmTranscript
00:00You didn't nap, did you?
00:10I didn't have time.
00:11I gotta find a new place to live.
00:13No excuse, boot.
00:14Napping is the key to midnight shift.
00:17No shorter than 20 minutes or longer than 40.
00:19But hey, if you're comfortable ignoring my institutional wisdom...
00:21I'm getting evicted.
00:23Whose fault is that?
00:24Not mine.
00:25I'm turning my building into condos.
00:27That's what happens when you gentrify a working class neighborhood.
00:40What the hell is that?
00:42What?
00:44That.
00:50There was a guy standing there with a mask on.
00:53He was like seven feet tall.
00:55Mm-hmm.
00:57I saw him.
00:58He was right there.
01:00Bo, if you'd make me get out of this car for hallucinations...
01:03He was right here.
01:08Make-believe time is over.
01:10He was right here.
01:25Make-believe time is over.
01:29Stop!
01:42Police!
01:43Tim?
02:13Step out. Step out!
02:23Hands where I can see them.
02:27Peel the mask off, slowly. Slowly.
02:32Welcome to Midnight, Optimus Jen.
02:50No. No!
03:02Hey. Happy to be back on days?
03:05God, yes. I don't know if you heard, but it was good.
03:10Tim had shirts made.
03:11Of course he did.
03:12Well, you know, just wait until it's your turn, officer in bed by 10.
03:16What can I say? I'm a morning person.
03:19Mm-hmm.
03:22Good morning.
03:23You're here bright and early.
03:24Hey, if you're not early, you're late.
03:26That's a stupid sign.
03:27What's the problem?
03:28Bad.
03:29I want my name, too.
03:30It's not the t-shirt, although it is annoying.
03:32I can't find a place to live.
03:34You could always move back home.
03:35No, I really can't.
03:37You can bunk up with Nolan. He lives in a mansion.
03:39Hey, it's not a mansion. It's a guest house of a mansion.
03:42But you're welcome to crash on the couch if you need to.
03:45Yeah, thanks.
03:46But I am determined to find a nice, clean, affordable place to live, even if it kills me.
03:51It's not a mansion.
04:00I don't know, officer Nolan.
04:03You will be leading the roll call this morning.
04:07Sir?
04:08I didn't stutter. Get up there.
04:09I didn't stutter. Get up there.
04:20What now?
04:21The clipboard.
04:24Memo to all divisions from the chief of police.
04:27Complaints about police officer entitlement have risen sharply during the last few months.
04:32Sir?
04:33Do you know what that means?
04:35Police officer entitlement.
04:37I assume it has to do with unauthorized perks, free food, things of that nature?
04:41And what is LAPD's policy on gratuities?
04:47No officer shall receive any gratuity, gift, favor, or promise thereof as it may result in or be perceived as payment in exchange for influence, bias, or direction of an investigation or enforcement of punishable offenses.
05:01Nicely done.
05:05Chen West, will you please join Officer Nolan up front?
05:16Have your training officers discuss this policy with you?
05:19Yes, sir.
05:20And what was your takeaway?
05:21Sir, if I may?
05:22Oh.
05:23Sounds like a little CYA.
05:25No, sir.
05:26Buddha and I walked the straight and narrow.
05:28But businesses like having cops around.
05:30A half-priced meal every once in a while is just community relations.
05:33Doesn't mean we show them favoritism.
05:35You agree with this, Officer Bishop?
05:37I'm not saying I've never accepted a free cup of coffee, but it's usually the exception, not the norm.
05:43What about you, Officer Nolan?
05:45I got into this job to help people, not to help myself to free stuff.
05:49Cute line.
05:50It's a bunch of bull, but...
05:53It's not.
05:54Really?
05:55Do you pay fair market value for that beach house you live in?
05:58No, sir, but I act as caretaker for the main house when Ben is away, so technically I'm exchanging services for my rent.
06:04And what happens when that exchange isn't enough and your buddy gets a ticket or worse?
06:10Then he'll have to pay for his actions.
06:12Okay.
06:13Favors are a slippery slope, people.
06:16And so are freebies.
06:17Look, I like to keep it real in here.
06:20There is the letter of the law and there is the spirit.
06:23It is your job to know the difference.
06:26But make no mistake.
06:28As police officers, you have power.
06:32Usually we like to focus on the kind that you holster on your side.
06:36But the power that lives within your badge can be equally as dangerous.
06:42That's it.
06:43All right, guys, be safe out there.
06:48Seven Adam 19, break in at Westside Fertility Clinic.
06:51We haven't received a single freebie since I've been with you, so why did you defend that degree?
06:55Because hard rules like that are stupid.
06:57What we do doesn't exist in a vacuum.
06:59Circumstances dictate actions, not the other way around.
07:03Police?
07:04Anyone here?
07:06Yes.
07:07We had a break in.
07:08Yeah, I can see that.
07:10There's been a rash of burglaries in the neighborhood recently.
07:12Mostly addicts looking for stuff to sell.
07:14This wasn't an addict.
07:16They took embryos.
07:17That's a new one on me.
07:19Do I write this up as a burglary or an abduction?
07:23You want to put out 50 amber alerts?
07:24It's a burglary.
07:25Officer, there's a crucial time element here.
07:28Without proper temperature control, those embryos will be compromised.
07:32Any idea who took them?
07:33They're part of an ugly custody dispute.
07:36A lesbian couple.
07:37The eggs we harvested were from only one of the women, Marilyn Tinney.
07:40Her ex is suing for custody rights even though she doesn't have a biological connection.
07:45Okay.
07:46We're going to need names and addresses for both women.
07:47Of course.
07:48But you should know, when I called Marilyn to tell her, she got very upset.
07:54Said she was going to kill her.
07:55License and registration, please.
07:56Look, I don't have time for this.
07:57Look, no one does.
07:58But you blew through that stop sign.
07:59Because Prince Charles is going to die.
08:00Excuse me?
08:01My dog.
08:02He's a King Charles Cavalier and he just ate a whole bag of macadamia nuts.
08:03Look, I'm sorry, but I still have to write you.
08:04You're kidding.
08:05I'm racing him to the vets.
08:06They have to pump his stomach.
08:07Those nuts are toxic for dogs.
08:08Look, I understand, but this will only take a minute.
08:09License and registration, please.
08:10If he dies.
08:11Hope your dog's okay.
08:12Have a nice day.
08:13Go to hell.
08:14Do you think a ticket was the best resolution, Officer West?
08:15You heard Sergeant Gray this morning?
08:16I'm racing him to the vets.
08:17I'm racing him to the vets.
08:18They have to pump his stomach.
08:19Those nuts are toxic for dogs.
08:20Look, I understand, but this will only take a minute.
08:21License and registration, please.
08:22If he dies.
08:27Hope your dog's okay.
08:32Have a nice day.
08:33Go to hell.
08:35Do you think a ticket was the best resolution, Officer West?
08:42You heard Sergeant Gray this morning?
08:44We have to remain vigilant.
08:46If we let everyone who's in a rush off the hook,
08:48the city would be undriveable.
08:49Her dog is dying.
08:50A warning would have been sufficient.
08:51Okay, a dog that size would have to eat a pound of nuts
08:54to induce ataxia.
08:55She drove through the stop sign in the school zone.
08:57It's a pretty serious infraction.
08:58We blow stop signs all the time and park on lawns
09:01and drive on the wrong side of the road.
09:03Okay, that's different.
09:04We're cops.
09:05We only do it when necessary.
09:06Exactly.
09:07Discretion is an important part of this job,
09:08even if the outcome is different than following the letter of the law.
09:11With all due respect, I was raised differently.
09:14The law's a law.
09:17Those are mine!
09:18They are not yours!
09:19They're mine!
09:20Give them to me!
09:21Give them to me right now!
09:22Don't stare at me again!
09:23Listen, I said give them to me!
09:24LAPD, we're coming in.
09:26They're mine too!
09:28Hey, put down the weapon.
09:29Those are my embryos.
09:30She stole them from the clinic.
09:32No!
09:33They are your eggs, and we had them fertilized by a sperm donor together.
09:36You remember?
09:37Yeah.
09:38And the judge ruled that I get to use them.
09:39Do you remember that?
09:40Yes!
09:41They're gone!
09:42Officer Chet.
09:43Secure.
09:44Yeah.
09:45Give me the tubes.
09:46No.
09:47Please.
09:50Those...
09:51Those are my last chance to carry my own baby.
09:55Please.
09:57Don't take that from me.
09:59Please.
10:00We're supposed to have kids together.
10:03I saw you through your whole cancer treatment.
10:08And then you dumped me for a yoga instructor?
10:11Wait, wait, wait, wait.
10:12Hey.
10:13Mr. Nui.
10:15You're angry.
10:16You have every right to be.
10:18But doing this, it won't put your marriage back together.
10:21Okay?
10:22Nothing will.
10:24But you will come to hate yourself if you go through with this.
10:29So put the tubes back in that container.
10:33What?
10:36Yes.
10:457-Adon 15 response to single car accident.
10:47Fourth Street overpass.
10:49You think I'm compromised living at Ben's house?
10:50Probably.
10:52You asked.
10:53Yeah, but I meant what I said to Sergeant Grey.
10:55If he asked me for a favor, I'd say no.
10:57Why even put yourself in that position?
10:59If it were me, I'd have to pay my own way.
11:01Like a grown-up.
11:03Driver okay?
11:04He's been stabbed, left side.
11:06Looks like he passed out then hit his head in the crash.
11:08Any ID?
11:09Not that I can find.
11:10Control, I need you to run the following plates.
11:125 Frank Victor Alpha 2-7.
11:14Call registered to Matthew Rodriguez, date of birth, 7-7-1990.
11:19Copy that.
11:20Send another unit to our location for an accident report.
11:22It appears Mr. Rodriguez has been the victim of an assault.
11:25We're accompanying RA to the hospital.
11:27We'll follow you.
11:28Got it.
11:29My guy didn't get stabbed driving alone,
11:31so either it happened before he got in the car,
11:33or his attacker bolted after the accident.
11:38I gotta admit,
11:39I thought there'd be more mysteries on this job.
11:41We'll be happy there aren't.
11:42The unknown is a pain in the butt.
11:43Sure.
11:44Let's tell everyone somehow you want to puzzle this off.
11:527-8-15.
11:53Suspect.
11:54The victim.
11:55On foot.
11:56Force.
11:57Jesus Chavez.
11:58Southbound.
12:01Okay.
12:06Now I really want to know what happened.
12:14So our vehicle is registered to Matthew Rodriguez,
12:16but our stabbing victim is not Matthew Rodriguez.
12:20Hmm.
12:21Looks like Mr. Rodriguez has a rap sheet with gang orders.
12:24You know what those are?
12:25It means a judge ordered him not to associate with gang members,
12:28wear their colors, or go to their neighborhood.
12:29Odds are a guy like that is connected to our John Doe stabbing.
12:32I thought officers were supposed to avoid making assumptions.
12:35There's a big difference between making an assumption and a likely scenario.
12:38Which is?
12:39Oh, let me guess.
12:40When it comes from you, it's a likely scenario.
12:42There's hope for you yet, Officer Nolan.
12:44Now, let's pay Mr. Rodriguez a visit and see if he can shine some light on our stabbing
12:49person.
12:507-10-07.
12:51Respond to a false imprisonment call.
12:52974 Ocampos Street.
12:53Hi.
12:54Are you the manager?
12:55Yes.
12:56Hi.
12:57Sir, we received a call that one of your customers is being held against their will.
13:00He's not a customer.
13:01He's a scam artist.
13:02Excuse me?
13:03This guy sets up first dates with women, runs up the bill, and then sneaks out the
13:07back door.
13:08He's been doing it at restaurants all over the neighborhood.
13:10He tried to do it to that poor woman over there, but one of our kitchen staff caught
13:13him and locked his ass in the walking fridge.
13:16Give us a minute.
13:22Seems like you're having a pretty bad day.
13:24Tinder is like the clearance rack at an outlet store.
13:27Dating apps are all bad.
13:28He ordered a $500 bottle of wine for lunch.
13:31And then the charcuterie board, and the cheese plate, and the steak au poivre.
13:36And the bill is $680.
13:40I don't know how I'm going to cover my rent this month.
13:43Did you already order dessert?
13:45No.
13:46Go ahead and get something.
13:48Maybe two things.
13:49Why?
13:50Look, I know what you're doing.
13:53She bumped up the bill to $700.
13:55We can charge a date with a felony.
13:56Very good, Officer West.
13:58It's not our job to put our thumb on the scale and change the outcome here.
14:00Are you lecturing me on police work, boo?
14:03No, but it's still something.
14:04But nothing.
14:05Go hook up our dine and dasher.
14:11Definitely get the creme brulee.
14:15The best creme brulee in the city.
14:18Seriously?
14:19You're totally fine with this.
14:21Susan isn't stuck paying the bill since the owners can write it off as theft.
14:24The only person paying for the crime is this jerk who committed it.
14:27That's the spirit of the law.
14:29Now, take a bite.
14:30No, I don't.
14:31I don't want it.
14:32Come on.
14:33Get off your high horse and try a little.
14:34No.
14:35I think it's...
14:36Just...
14:37Just a little bite.
14:39What?
14:40Mm-hmm.
14:41Told ya.
14:42Matthew Rodriguez!
14:43Police!
14:44Open up!
14:45Nolan.
14:46Ready?
14:47Mm-hmm.
14:48Well, I guess now we know who stamped our John Doe.
14:49You sound disappointed.
14:50No.
14:51I just thought it might be a little less... cut and dry.
14:52Well, believe me.
14:53Cut and dry is a lot less paperwork.
14:54Seven item 15.
14:55Need a homicide unit at 4495 Barrington.
14:58Our John Doe is now a murder suspect.
15:19You're not done yet?
15:23At this stage in training, you should have knocked that out in two minutes.
15:26What's the problem?
15:27I'm not sure how to write it.
15:29It's a simple grand theft report.
15:31It's not simple.
15:32Or we made that case a felony.
15:34Something that should have been a citation.
15:36We turned it into a weekend in jail.
15:38And you want me to lie on the report?
15:40I seem to remember writing a report about you.
15:44Second day on the job.
15:47I meant the truth about your cowardice in the line of fire.
15:51Ringing a bell?
15:52Yeah.
15:54And I'm grateful you know that, but I'm not...
15:57But what, boot?
15:58More than any other rookie, you should know the difference between the spirit and the letter.
16:02Unless you don't think it applies to you.
16:05Are you the exception, Officer West?
16:07No, ma'am.
16:08Yeah, here you are acting holier than thou.
16:11Tell me something.
16:13Do you carry a push knife?
16:15One of those fight for your life, last resort, do or die kind of knives.
16:19You know that I do.
16:20I mean, my dad gave it to me.
16:22Oh, right.
16:24Your father, Huelba, walks in water.
16:27Only this knife is illegal.
16:29Yeah, right.
16:30I mean, half the department carry these.
16:31Penal code section 12020.
16:33The very bottom.
16:35Technically, it's a dagger.
16:37Look it up if you don't believe me.
16:40Look, if it's true, then I just won't carry one anymore.
16:45That is the wrong lesson to learn here.
16:47You're in for a hard fall if you can't see the difference between righteous and rigid.
16:52And if that wasn't the first thing your father taught you, he failed you.
16:56Now, fill out the damn report.
16:57We've got to get back out there.
16:58It doesn't seem right to lock up Marilyn, too.
16:59She was only trying to protect her embryos.
17:00Nothing we can do, she committed an assault.
17:01Domestic violence laws are strict for a reason.
17:02What happened to circumstances dictate actions?
17:03Oh, trust me.
17:04This is one rule I'm all for.
17:05Cemeteries are filled with women who'd still be alive if cops have been forced to hook
17:08up their spouses the second he or she laid hands.
17:09That is.. a very enlightened attitude.
17:10You seem surprised.
17:11Sir, you surprise me everyday.
17:12Uh huh.
17:13Go gas up the shop.
17:14Hey, how's it going?
17:15Hey.
17:16It's been an interesting morning.
17:17How about you?
17:18Sure, sir.
17:19It's been an interesting morning.
17:20How about you?
17:21Sure.
17:22Sure.
17:23Hey.
17:24It's been an interesting morning.
17:25How about you?
17:26Sure.
17:27Sure.
17:28Hey.
17:29Hey, I'm sorry.
17:30Hey.
17:31Hey.
17:32Hey.
17:33Hey.
17:34Hey.
17:35Hey.
17:36Hey.
17:37Hey.
17:38How about you?
17:39Same.
17:40Found a dead body at the Langston or Holscher.
17:42How was it?
17:43Bruce.
17:44Guy took a bullet right to his, uh...
17:45Oh, wait.
17:46Not the body.
17:47The apartment.
17:48Oh, uh, it was nice, surprisingly upscale for a gang member.
17:52Are you asking for you?
17:54Well, the building needs to disclose if someone was killed in the apartment,
17:57so it might mean a break in rent.
17:59Yeah, just a bit of a questionable way to find a place to live, no?
18:03Yeah, well, traditional clearly isn't working out, so...
18:06Let's go, boo. Captain wants to see us.
18:11That should hold you until you get to the hospital.
18:13Captain.
18:14What's going on?
18:17That's our murder suspect.
18:19He's not a suspect, Officer Nolan.
18:21He's an undercover narcotics detective.
18:22Robert Ortiz.
18:24I'm sorry about the ambulance thing.
18:30I've been undercover in Salaoma for almost a year,
18:33working my way closer to the offshoot in Boyle Heights called Ocampo Loco.
18:37They control the cash flow and then bundle the drug money
18:39and ship it back to Mexico.
18:40How much money are we talking?
18:42Right now, at least a million.
18:44The word is they're gonna ship it tonight.
18:46I was about to report it when my cover was blown by, uh, Matthew Rodriguez,
18:49who tried to kill me, so I shot him in self-defense.
18:52Um, you know the rest.
18:54Officer Ortiz has bravely volunteered to go back in to protect his cover
18:57and set up our tactical operation.
18:59Last time I was at the house, there was four Alcones guarding the money.
19:03Heavy hitters.
19:04We're gonna gear up heavy, position ourselves down the street,
19:07being ready to initiate a full-blown raid on the house once Ortiz gives us a signal.
19:11Rookies, this is your first high-level tactical operation.
19:15Let's be prepared.
19:17Did you read the search warrant?
19:19Yes, ma'am.
19:208531 Winchester Boulevard.
19:22Residence is the 1800s Victorian with five bedrooms and two bathrooms and a guest house.
19:26Front door?
19:27Solid oak with a copper handle on the right side.
19:31You know the specs of this equipment, Officer Chen?
19:33It's a Blackhawk Dynamic Entry Special Operant.
19:37How much does it weigh?
19:3860 pounds here.
19:39Hold it tight.
19:40You'll be the breacher.
19:41You'll buy a round for every swing it takes to knock that door down.
19:44Walk me through a tactical gear check.
19:46Stock zip ties in the loops of the tack vest.
19:49And then?
19:50Secure any loose gear, tack vest, helmet, etc.
19:53Finally, secure firearm to a thyroid.
19:55Very good.
19:56Any questions?
19:58What if I have to pee?
20:01I'll hold it.
20:02I'm good.
20:07All units.
20:08We're 30 seconds out.
20:09Get ready.
20:10Be safe.
20:17Officer West.
20:18You do the 844.
20:19Stand by to initiate.
20:23Ortiz is in.
20:24Where the hell you been?
20:25Rodriguez was talking to the cops.
20:27He tried to stick me when I called him out.
20:29So I put a bullet in his head.
20:30We gotta get out of here.
20:31You could've given this place.
20:32How the hell are we gonna do that?
20:33We got a million in casualty.
20:35Back it out.
20:36It's too hot to stay here.
20:37That's the signal.
20:38Initiate.
20:39Police!
20:40Open the door!
20:41We have a search warrant.
20:42Please! Open the door! We have a search warrant!
21:07Open the line!
21:08Open the door to the right!
21:09Step back or I'll shoot! Get down on your knees now!
21:20Claire!
21:21You good?
21:22Yeah.
21:23Hands up! Fingers behind your head! Do it now! Back up!
21:28Hands up!
21:29You okay?
21:34Yeah, barely.
21:35Whatever, it's at the hospital on the way out.
21:37Clear! Coming up!
21:45Special assignment. Follow me.
21:52Sorry. Here's what happens now.
21:54The money counters and the videographer are on their way.
21:57In the meantime, you three get to watch the money. Two people with it at all times. No selfies. Enjoy.
22:08Where does all this money go?
22:13Cass sees during drug raids goes back to narcotics, where it's used again for undercover ops.
22:18That's more money than I've ever seen in one place.
22:21Can you imagine?
22:23I'd buy a car. No. A helicopter. And learn to fly it so I could avoid all the traffic.
22:31Yeah, that first big purchase is always tricky, right? The barber in Foxburg? He won the lottery. Bought a big fancy boat. Ran it aground in Freeport. Cooked the gills. I don't think a boat is a good idea.
22:42What about you? What'd you spend it on?
22:44I'm not playing that game. It was drug money.
22:47Mom, we're just talking. A million dollars lands on your doorstep. What do you do? Go. And don't say you'd set aside 30% for taxes.
22:56A new car, I guess. Or maybe a trip. Been wanting to do a little traveling.
23:03Let me guess. You'd visit police departments all around the world. Learn their techniques?
23:09No.
23:14I'd pay all of Henry's tuition. With the money. Because we didn't have those student loans hanging over his head.
23:20Yeah. They're no fun. I'll be paying mine off until I'm 60.
23:25Yeah. Well, with this money, you could pay them all off and still rent an amazing place by the ocean.
23:30Meanwhile, I couldn't afford to buy the room and the house I'm living in.
23:34Better would've got you something pretty nice back in Foxburg, though.
23:36Mm. Biggest house in town and then some. Still can't get used to the cost of living in Los Angeles.
23:42It's like you have to add an extra zero to everything.
23:44You know, I never really thought about money growing up. We all just had enough, you know?
23:49Yeah. That's what I thought. Until my parents went bankrupt when I was nine.
23:55It took a couple of really bad years before we got back up on our feet.
23:58No, I've been there.
24:00I've been days where I would've killed to be sitting across from this much money.
24:05There for the taking.
24:07Hey, don't even joke about that. I've heard too many stories from my dad about cops who started filling their pockets,
24:12convincing themselves that it was a victimless crime, that they were entitled to a little extra compensation for their troubles.
24:18Okay, well, relax. It's not us.
24:21Yeah, that's what they thought at first, too. But then you take a bite of the creme brulee, and the next thing you know, you're doing three to five for felony theft.
24:27I'm sorry, creme brulee?
24:29Never mind.
24:31Oh, man. What?
24:33What?
24:34I just, I still have to pee, but with all this...
24:38I'm drunk back.
24:43All done?
24:44Just finished. Bad guy's on the way to jail, Ortiz on his way to the hospital, so we're headed out.
24:48You're not waiting for us?
24:49Nope. But we're leaving a shot behind.
24:51Remember, shift starts tomorrow at noon, but you want to get in early to do tonight's paperwork.
24:55Copy that. Are the money counters gonna get here soon?
24:58I'd get comfortable if I were you. Those guys work at their own pace.
25:02Yeah.
25:03Oh, where's the...
25:13I'd still do the job.
25:15Even if I came into money.
25:17That's a lot of shock.
25:19You know, I would, too.
25:23You've known what you've wanted to do since birth, but I just figured out.
25:27There's no way I would bail now.
25:30What about you?
25:33Having money makes things easier, not better.
25:36That's not an answer.
25:38Would you quit the job?
25:40I'm passed up on being hazed on a daily basis by training officer's tenure as my junior. Come on.
25:46All right. Officers Grazer and Williams are riding on the scene at 117 AM. We're leaving three uniformed officers. What are your names?
26:02Nolan Chen West.
26:04Anyone else? Come in or out?
26:05No, ma'am.
26:06Great.
26:08Get the rope. We got it from here.
26:14You coming?
26:16We might never see this much money again.
26:19If there's ever another raid and they need someone to sit and wait until the wee hours, I have a feeling it'll be us.
26:32Nolan, wake up!
26:34Nolan!
26:36Nolan!
26:37Did I oversleep? Ship starts at noon.
26:48Captain called me to bring you in early.
26:49Why?
26:50She didn't say.
26:51That sounds bad.
26:52It's not good.
26:53Do I have time to...
26:54Get dressed.
26:55What's going on?
26:59They told us to gather our boots same as you.
27:02We have a situation.
27:04Money counters are telling us that we're missing $250,000.
27:08And you three were the only ones left alone with the money.
27:17Well, the money counters must have made a mistake.
27:19There's video of them entering the garage and relieving you.
27:22And then they counted the money.
27:24And got $750,000 and not a million.
27:26Let me remind you, an officer was recently convicted of third-degree official misconduct for taking $70 from a crime scene.
27:32He served him two years behind bars.
27:34What do you think would happen to a cop who steals a quarter million dollars?
27:37But we didn't take it.
27:39Maybe the assumption was wrong.
27:41Maybe it was always $750,000.
27:43That's not what the intel shows.
27:44The guys on the bar are saying it's a million.
27:46Okay, well, we can all vouch for each other.
27:48Not good enough.
27:49The only thing that will clear you is passing a polygraph.
27:51No, I can't by law make you take one.
27:53It would have to be strictly voluntary.
27:55What if we decline?
27:56There's grounds for suspension pending investigation.
27:58And it possibly could lead to your termination.
28:02Well, that's not much of a choice, but...
28:06Yeah, we'll do it.
28:08Okay.
28:09Let's go.
28:10What now?
28:11Now.
28:20You think one of them really could have done it?
28:22Not by themselves.
28:23No one came back into the house to use the bathroom.
28:25One of the other two could have hidden some of the money then.
28:28Came back, picked it up later.
28:30There's no way Wes participated.
28:31That kid is squeaky clean.
28:33Well, if it was Jen, she wouldn't get caught like this.
28:35Sounds like a compliment.
28:36I'm just saying, she's smarter than that.
28:38It doesn't matter if they did it or not.
28:40If they don't walk out of there with a flawless polygraph, they're done.
28:43What am I sitting on?
28:49The pressure pad.
28:50That registers if you attempt to try to cheat the polygraph by clenching your buttocks.
28:56Well, that can't be a real thing.
28:59You just clenched.
29:00Really?
29:02What am I doing now?
29:05Officer Wes, you seem... uncomfortable.
29:08Is there something you'd like to get off your chest before we begin?
29:11Yes.
29:13I had a bite of creme brulee, okay?
29:16And yes, it was delicious.
29:18Like, I know it was wrong, but now that taste is in my mouth, that sweet flavor of corruption.
29:24It's just...
29:25But I want to let you guys know that I've learned my lesson, and it will never happen again.
29:32Okay, let's begin with a few controlled questions.
29:35Answer with a simple yes or no.
29:37Is your name Jonathan Nolan?
29:39Yes.
29:40Yes.
29:41Do you live at 72 14 and a half Alvaro Street, apartment F?
29:45For the moment.
29:46A simple yes or no, officer?
29:48Sorry.
29:49Um, yes.
29:50Are your eyes brown?
29:51Um, well, my mom always says they're more of a dark chestnut.
29:56But...
29:58Brown is fine.
29:59Did you witness anyone taking money?
30:01No.
30:02Were you ever alone with the money?
30:03Yes, sir.
30:04Um, no.
30:05No, sir.
30:06No.
30:07Like...
30:08I'm sorry.
30:09These wires make me really nervous.
30:11I can't...
30:13Have you ever lied to protect another officer?
30:15No.
30:18Let's try that again.
30:20Have you ever lied to protect a fellow officer?
30:25Yes.
30:26Regarding the missing money?
30:28No, ma'am.
30:32Why didn't you tell them about creme brulee?
30:34I don't know. It came up naturally.
30:35There were yes or no questions. How does creme brulee come up naturally?
30:38Boots, you've all passed your polygraphs.
30:42But this is far from over.
30:44Go home.
30:45The detectives will contact you soon about follow-up and abuse.
30:48You gotta find out what happened to that money before you hit the street again.
30:50Yes, ma'am.
30:53Hey.
30:54You know what I like to do after I've been suspected of a felony?
30:57Uh, drink?
30:58Damn straight.
30:59I got a stocked fridge. Anyone wanna join?
31:00I'm down. Lucy?
31:01Yeah, it's barely lunch and I should make use of the time off and go apartment tending.
31:05You okay?
31:06Why would I be?
31:13Hey.
31:15We all got cleared.
31:16You're cops.
31:17We supposed to be impressed you're not criminals?
31:19No, sir.
31:20Part of the job description, really.
31:22And you won't be cleared until the money's found.
31:24But we'll do our best to try and find it.
31:30Natalia's right.
31:31They don't catch who stole that money, cops?
31:33They think we did it.
31:34No matter what the polygraph said, we'll never be trusted again.
31:37No, you're not wrong.
31:38So what do we do?
31:41Hey, Lucy, you're on with me and Jackson.
31:43You know, if they don't find the money, we're screwed.
31:46We were just talking about that.
31:48I keep going over it in my mind.
31:49The only thing I can think of is that money was gone long before we ever got to the garage.
31:54What the hell is this guy doing?
31:56What the hell is this guy doing?
31:57Like what?
31:58This black SUV, he's riding my ass.
32:03He just hit me.
32:04It looks like he's trying to run me off the road.
32:06Where are you?
32:07Driving south on Griffith Park Drive.
32:09I just passed Mineral Wells Trail.
32:11LUCY?
32:12...
32:14...
32:16...
32:18Lucy?
32:20...
32:30...
32:32...
32:34...
32:38...
32:40Lucy's in trouble. Someone tried to drive her off the road.
32:42Griffith Park Drive.
32:43Jackson and I are on our way there now.
32:54Okay, it's to your left.
33:10Clear. Phone's in the car. Officer needs help requesting backup and airship.
33:23Vans clear.
33:24Griffith Park Drive. Be advised plainclothes officers in pursuit heading northwest into the woods.
33:29Seven out of 19. We're five minutes out. Hold until we get there.
33:40Which way?
33:50I don't know.
33:52You seeing that?
33:55Yeah.
34:00That way.
34:01You sure?
34:02No.
34:10Drop the gun.
34:27What do you want?
34:28The money you stole.
34:32You're with Loma?
34:34You're with the LAPD. Officer Lucy Chen. Lives at 7214 and a half Alvarado Street. Apartment F.
34:41How do you know all that?
34:42Public records. Addresses. Police reports. Damn near everything's on the net.
34:47So I already know. You were guarding our money. And 250 G's went missing. And I know you're the cop that took it.
34:53I... I didn't steal anything.
34:56Oh, please. We've seen your place. Ran your credit. We need a serious cash infusion.
35:02So, where's our money?
35:06I already told you. I don't have it.
35:09Tough girl, huh? Well, everybody's tough at first. Until they're not. Andres. Cut her up a little.
35:18This isn't about the money, Chica. A quarter million is a rounding error on our gas budget. This is about sending a message. You can't steal from us. Even if you carry a badge.
35:39I saw you. What? Outside the house, right before we raided it. You were wearing those boots and carrying that duffel bag with the red stripe. Somebody tipped you off about the raid. You took the money. You got in before we hit the place. You thought no one would notice.
35:54No one would notice.
36:03Shots fired northwest from our previous.
36:05Damn!
36:12You messed it all up.
36:13Hey!
36:23Police! Don't move!
36:30Do not move! Stay on the ground!
36:35You got this?
36:36I'm going after Lucy.
36:37I'm losing.
36:50Nice.
36:51Do you have cuffs?
36:52Yeah.
36:53Last pair.
36:55What took you so long?
36:56So long.
37:02Paramex has taken our other suspects to Shaw Memorial. Homicide is working the alcohol and this one killed.
37:07And the missing 250,000?
37:08Einstein had it stacked on his coffee table.
37:10Wesson Lopez are bringing it in now.
37:12All right. Good work.
37:15And how are you doing?
37:16Oh, good. Thank you. I think I might have twisted my ankle.
37:19I met Officer Chen, Nolan.
37:22That was good work out there.
37:23Thank you, sir. I'm just relieved that we found the missing money.
37:26So I take it we're off the hook about the cash.
37:29You are.
37:30But to be clear,
37:32at no point did anyone actually believe that three rookies knew how to smuggle a quarter million cash out of a crime scene.
37:39But good work.
37:46Hey.
37:47Hey.
37:48Look, in case I haven't said this enough, I've been trying to be a cop my whole life.
37:55I walked in here thinking I knew everything about everything, and I can only imagine how annoying that's been.
38:01I want to call it annoying, I call it, yeah, no, annoying's about right.
38:05Well, I'm sorry.
38:08You're my T.O., not my dad.
38:11I should let you teach me how to be a cop, even if some of your methods contradict the things that he showed me.
38:16But, look, I just hope that you'll understand if I need to take a moment to adjust.
38:21I guess I can give you that.
38:25And thanks for not giving up on me.
38:26I wouldn't be here without you, and...
38:30I'll never forget that again.
38:39Good time?
38:40Of course.
38:41Come in, Captain.
38:42Let's see how you were doing.
38:45All-you-can-eat pudding.
38:47The only highlight of being in a hospital.
38:50You want one?
38:51Oh, no, no.
38:52You enjoy.
38:54Hey, uh, I thought you'd like to know, we recovered the missing quarter million.
39:00Wow.
39:02That's really good news.
39:04Turns out it was gone before we even showed up.
39:06Gang member Franco DeSantis took it just before our raid.
39:09He pulled his cell records.
39:11Turns out there was an incoming call just before he grabbed the cash and walked it out the door.
39:15Do you know where that call came from?
39:19Mm-mm.
39:20I have no idea.
39:22The station.
39:28Did you think I made it?
39:30Oh, I know you did.
39:32You see, Franco admitted as much.
39:37Don't.
39:40You should enjoy your pudding.
39:42The stuff they give you in prison, phew, not nearly as good.
39:51Hey.
39:53Hey.
39:54Come in, come in, come in.
39:57So?
39:58This is my new place.
40:00It's great, right?
40:01Oh.
40:03There's a giant blood sting on the rock.
40:05Which is how I'm getting 25% off for the first year.
40:09Are you sure that's not because you're a cop?
40:11Yeah.
40:12I didn't even know before he cut me the break.
40:13Landlord was super eager to get it all done.
40:16Especially because I said I would take it as is.
40:19As is?
40:21You mean...
40:22Oh.
40:23Yeah.
40:24Which is why you're here.
40:26You see, friends...
40:28help friends...
40:30clean up crime scenes.
40:31We'll get poke after.
40:35Okay.
40:40So, what should we drink to?
40:42To paying your own way.
40:44That's strangely specific.
40:46Listen, I really appreciate everything you've done for me.
40:50You really helped me get back on my feet.
40:52But I'm back on them now.
40:54And I can't just keep living here for free.
40:57I don't need you to pay rent.
40:58I need me to pay rent.
40:59So...
41:01What would you list this place for?
41:03Oh...
41:04I don't know.
41:05Twelve.
41:06Maybe eleven?
41:08How about we'll just call it ten thousand even.
41:09A month?
41:10I can't...
41:11I can't afford that.
41:12I'll tell you what.
41:14Why don't you pay what you can afford?
41:16I'm gonna call it even.
41:19Deal.
41:24And I have to tell you...
41:25Oh my God, that's good.
41:27But I have to be clear.
41:29As a cop, I can't do you any favors.
41:32I can't fix a ticket for you.
41:34I can't help you out of any legal jeopardy.
41:37I just...
41:39Hope you understand.
41:40Totally.
41:41And you know what?
41:42I would never come to you for anything like that.
41:45Okay?
41:46I'm super tight with the district attorney.
41:47That's not better.
41:49So...
41:50This rent that you're gonna be paying...
41:53Is it retroactive from when you moved in?
41:56Um...
41:57Yes.
41:58That's great!
42:20It does it.
42:24Don't...
42:25No...
42:26No...
42:27No...
42:28No...
42:30No...
42:31No...
42:32No...
42:33No...
42:34No...
42:35Damn it!
