Short filmTranscript
00:00Control 7, Adam 15, show us on a vehicle stop. Sherman Grove and Wingate. Clear for plate.
00:04Go ahead. 2 Frank, Adam, Nora, 3, 2, 1.
00:08They're bailing.
00:10Control, we got multiple runners east and west bound. Need code 3 units and an airship.
00:20Driver's heading east. Nolan, with me.
00:30I'm going to win for you like none of you want me to do.
00:50So, um, how is she?
01:04She made me run out to buy her concealer at 6 a.m. to cover the tattoo.
01:08She does it every morning.
01:09Well, wouldn't you?
01:10I mean, can you imagine walking around with a serial killer's brand on you?
01:14When can she have it removed?
01:16Four weeks, two days, nine hours.
01:18Hey, well, your first day back, I thought you'd use some sugar and some carbs.
01:22Oh, that's sweet.
01:24Literally.
01:25So, are you ready?
01:28Absolutely.
01:28Uh, doctor signed off on physical, department shrink signed off on mental.
01:32Oh, uh, but could you do me a favor?
01:34Anything.
01:34I just don't want everybody clapping during roll call.
01:37Well, that's tradition, though.
01:39You know, I mean, you survive something like that,
01:42they're going to want to show you some respect.
01:44I'll see what I can do.
01:46Hey, did Henry and Abigail make a day last night?
01:48Yes.
01:48Boy, they have a whole long list of waiting venues they need to investigate.
01:52Fine.
01:54No?
01:54No, yes.
01:55No, yeah, I mean, yes.
01:57It's just, it's a lot to take in, you know?
02:00It seems like only yesterday, Henry was a toddler on my shoulders,
02:05this whole knot of my hair, his little feet in my hands.
02:08Oh, that's sweet.
02:10It's a bit of a puker.
02:12It's so hard to get that smell out of your hair.
02:14Hey, so, uh, what's your plan?
02:19For what?
02:20Officer Chen.
02:22I'm sure you've got some alpha strategy to get her back on the horse, so what is it?
02:25Your standard input overload.
02:27Force her to push through dynamic engagements, hone in her fight-or-flight response.
02:30So basically, get her into as many fights as possible.
02:33I'm going to remind her that she's a cop and not a victim.
02:35She knows she's not a victim.
02:37Look, Chen doesn't need to fight.
02:39She needs to make peace with the voice inside of her head telling her she's never going to be safe again.
02:44Okay, I've been training rookies a lot longer than you.
02:46I know what she needs.
02:47That's ego talking.
02:52What happened to Chen is every woman's worst fear.
02:56I'm aware of that.
02:57But you have never lived that fear.
03:00It's clear that you have her best interest at heart.
03:02I'm just asking you to consider whether she might be better served by someone who has been through what she has been through.
03:12And that someone's you.
03:13Oh.
03:17Okay.
03:23I'll tell Gray to make the switch.
03:28Hey.
03:29What are you guys doing here?
03:31Oh, the wedding venue we were going to look at got shut down by the health department.
03:34Oh, I guess you're crossing that one off your list.
03:37Are you kidding?
03:38It'll be super cheap now, which is our price point.
03:41Well, I am just starting my shift, so I really can't hang out with you.
03:45Actually, I was hoping I could hang out with you.
03:49I've done a lot of self-reflection since I dropped out of school.
03:52And meeting you, seeing how you reinvented your life has been really inspiring.
03:56Well, Abigail, thank you.
03:58That's a very nice thing to say.
03:59It's made me want to become a cop.
04:02So I was hoping I could do a ride-along today.
04:07You almost had me.
04:09This is another I'm pregnant, psych, I'm not pregnant bit.
04:12Yeah, I'm not falling for it.
04:13No, no.
04:14She's serious, Dad.
04:16Totally.
04:17Um, oh, okay, sorry.
04:18Uh, oh.
04:19Well, given your history, Abigail, with the arson, I don't know that that's possible.
04:24She was 17 when that happened.
04:26And I was never convicted.
04:28Right.
04:28The DA cut me a deal.
04:29I realize it won't be easy, but I really want to try.
04:32Well, I'd have to ask the watch commander.
04:36But, you know, he's always saying recruit the brightest and the best, so...
04:39Great.
04:39I'll just grab my jacket from the car.
04:40Okay.
04:40Okay.
04:44You can't let her become a cop.
04:46What?
04:47Yeah, she's been talking about this for weeks, and I'm trying to be encouraging, but I'm
04:52barely okay worrying if you're going to make it home every night.
04:54I can't do that with her.
04:56Well, this sounds like something you should discuss with her.
04:58Dad, please, can you just make sure she has a bad time?
05:02Hey, Marie, I can't do that.
05:04Please.
05:06I can lean into the bad parts.
05:08Great.
05:08Okay.
05:10Recording for duty, sir.
05:13This is going to be great.
05:14Have you tried this?
05:17Yeah.
05:17Yeah.
05:18Sir.
05:21Is it good?
05:22Yeah.
05:24Yeah.
05:25Yeah.
05:25Yeah.
05:25Yeah.
05:25Yeah.
05:25Yeah.
05:26Yeah.
05:26Yeah.
05:26Yeah.
05:26Yeah.
05:34Sorry, I couldn't try.
05:35Yeah, you're dead to me.
05:36Welcome back, Officer Chin.
05:38How you feeling?
05:39Can't wait to get on the street, sir.
05:40Just get back to normal.
05:41So glad to hear that.
05:42We're going to mix things up a bit.
05:44You're going to be riding with Harper this week.
05:46Which means, Nolan, you and your ride-along are with Bradford.
05:49Sorry, wait, what?
05:50Ride-along?
05:50Which brings us to Officer West.
05:53Tell me, son, you enjoyed the red carpet last night?
05:56What?
05:56How did you know?
05:58LAPD media relations.
05:59Sent me a link.
06:00And now some hot goss from Hot Suspects star Sterling Freeman.
06:03TV's favorite cop has been hitting the town with real-life LAPD officer Jackson West.
06:08Looks like these cops should call the fire department, because it's getting hot in here.
06:14Okay.
06:15Yeah.
06:16No, no, no.
06:16Keep laughing.
06:17I also gained 10,000 new Instagram followers overnight.
06:20West, the only followers you should worry about are your superiors.
06:23Think about us next time you're out in the town.
06:26Yes, sir.
06:26All right, that's it.
06:28Stay safe out there.
06:30Nolan, you scheduled a ride-along without clearing it with your T.O. first?
06:33No, sir.
06:34I cleared it with Detective Harper.
06:35She said it was all right.
06:36Because she knew she wasn't riding with you today.
06:39All right, so who am I saddled up with?
06:41Uh, it's my future daughter-in-law, Abigail, over there.
06:44She's considering signing up to the Academy.
06:46She's like nine pounds.
06:48And I'm not interested in chasing tame calls today.
06:50No need to.
06:50I think Abigail would benefit from seeing the harsh side of police work.
06:55You don't want her to be a cop?
06:56I'm merely concerned about her suitability.
06:59So perhaps we should show her what she'd be signing up for.
07:03No problem.
07:04Scaring rookies off the job is my specialty.
07:10Hi, I'm Abigail.
07:12My name is Officer Bradford.
07:13You'll address me only as Officer Bradford.
07:15Do you understand?
07:16You signed the liability waiver?
07:18Yes, sir.
07:19Officer Bradford.
07:20Good.
07:20Then you understand you could be injured, maimed, paralyzed, burned, or killed during this ride-along.
07:24I mean, yeah, sure.
07:26We're not tour guides.
07:27We're the police.
07:28We drive towards the center of gunshots.
07:29So if that's going to be a problem, you should bail out now.
07:33No problem at all.
07:35Let's go find some gunshots.
07:36So, why the switch?
07:42Tim felt you'd be better served right in with me.
07:45Yeah, right.
07:46This has to be some kind of elaborate Tim test that he roped you into.
07:49Do I strike you as someone who can get roped into anything, especially by Bradford?
07:54Fair enough.
07:55So, I'll ask you again.
07:57Why the switch?
08:01I convinced him that I would have more insight into what you were going through,
08:05and could therefore be more helpful to your reintegration onto the street.
08:09Did you go on a date with a serial killer, too?
08:13Uh, no.
08:14Well, then I'm not sure how much help you'd be.
08:17But it's fine, because I don't need any help.
08:19I've already worked through the trauma using both cognitive and exposure therapy,
08:23combined with mindful breathing, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing.
08:27So, it's fine.
08:31You don't get it.
08:32Gray didn't show that red carpet stuff just to tell you how to act appropriately off-duty.
08:36He's sending you a message.
08:37Fame and police work don't mix.
08:39Come on.
08:40Look, it was just my 15 minutes.
08:41That's not a thing you should want, unless you want to say goodbye to doing undercover,
08:45or joining SWAT, or robbery homicide.
08:47I'm just going to want to ride with a celebrity.
08:49Okay, look, you're blowing this way out of proportion.
08:51Okay, it was just the red carpet.
08:53I have it under control.
08:56Does that guy look familiar?
08:58You mean Captain Suspicious?
09:00Yeah.
09:00I think I saw him in a bolo back at the station.
09:02We're on his plate.
09:03I'm guessing we're looking at our first arrest of the day.
09:05If you really want to be a cop, the first thing you need to come to terms with is death.
09:11In all its forms.
09:12Stay here.
09:13I'll never get used to the smell of death.
09:15It's actually not that bad, but I kind of got a thing for armpits.
09:18The fuck you're the better.
09:19I don't need to know that.
09:23We got a jumper.
09:24Get a header from the roof.
09:25You really don't want to see this.
09:27No, I kind of do.
09:28If you're going to hurl, kid, do it over there.
09:32Huh.
09:34I'm not even sure what I'm looking at.
09:36Impact velocity tends to turn people into piñatas.
09:39Five stories on the asphalt and its limbs akimbo.
09:42That's its left leg.
09:43That's its spine.
09:44Oh, okay.
09:45Yeah, I see now.
09:46We got an ID?
09:47Yeah, Heston Dayton, 22.
09:49Thinking homicide, suicide?
09:51I won't know until I do an autopsy.
09:53And even then, it might not be clear given the state of the body.
09:55Have you notified next to Kim?
09:57Not yet.
09:57Okay, let detectives know that we'll take care of it.
10:03Come on.
10:07That was cool.
10:08He was a human being.
10:09I'm about to go tell his family they'll never see him again.
10:12Seven Adams 7B advised.
10:14Vehicle is registered to a felon with outstanding warrant.
10:17I love being right.
10:18First name Jedi, last name Monet.
10:20Sending detail to your box.
10:22Oh, seems Mr. Monet has an affinity for armed robbery
10:26and assault with a deadly weapon.
10:28Light him up?
10:28No, get backup going first.
10:30Better safe than sorry with this clown.
10:32Seven Adams 7 headed south on Hauser near 9th.
10:35Need backup for a felony car stop.
10:37You sure?
10:38Hell yeah.
10:38Seven Adams 19 responding.
10:40We're approximately 30 seconds out.
10:41Heading northbound.
10:42Five bucks, you rabbits.
10:52You can pay me after.
10:54You never accept him for bad or something.
10:55Driver, turn off the vehicle and place both hands outside the window.
11:10Oh, my God.
11:12Get back home.
11:13Oh, my God.
11:14Are you shooting at me?
11:15Jackson, get up the hell out of here.
11:16Ladies, you need to step back.
11:18Ladies, ladies, ladies.
11:20You need to get back.
11:20You need to get back.
11:21Ladies, please.
11:22Get out of the store.
11:30Get out of the store.
11:30Get out of the store.
11:31Get out of here.
11:31Get out of here.
11:31Move.
11:34Move.
11:43It's empty.
11:45Hey.
11:46Stop where you are.
11:48Blitz, stop right there.
11:49Hands behind your head.
11:50Fingers laced.
11:51Down on your knees.
11:51Control, show us one in custody, code four.
11:55Nice of you to join us.
11:57Maybe our suspect wants your autograph.
11:58off.
12:28Hey, I just wanted to say I'm sorry about before at the crime scene.
12:33I wasn't thinking about the family.
12:35I get it.
12:35Listen, what we're here to do is awful.
12:38Death notifications always are.
12:40You spend the drive over dreading it,
12:42trying to come up with words that will somehow soften the blow,
12:46knowing that there aren't any.
12:48That's why he lived here with his mother and his sister,
12:50and what we're about to tell them has the potential to destroy lives.
12:53You're no shame in waiting in the shop if you're not up for it.
12:58Police!
13:03What? What do you do this time?
13:06Ma'am, I'm Officer Bradford. This is Officer Nolan.
13:08Can we come in?
13:09No.
13:09Ma'am, I think it's past.
13:10Can you just tell me what Heston did?
13:13We regret to inform you that your son was killed this morning.
13:19What?
13:19What's going on?
13:22Mom?
13:22Mom?
13:26Your brother's dead.
13:28No.
13:31I'm afraid so.
13:33What happened?
13:34He fell from a building in downtown.
13:37Possibly jumped.
13:38No, he would never do that.
13:40Never.
13:43Do you know what he was doing downtown?
13:45No.
13:47I haven't seen him in a couple of days.
13:49I'm so sorry.
13:56Who are you?
13:57I'm Abigail, and I'm doing a ride alone.
14:00It doesn't matter.
14:02Did you see him?
14:03His body?
14:05No.
14:06Is there anything I can do?
14:10Like what?
14:11Make him alive again?
14:11Can you do that?
14:14No.
14:15You asked what Heston had done now.
14:17What kind of trouble was your son into?
14:18Just hanging around with idiots.
14:20Anybody we should talk to?
14:21What did you do?
14:28Guys?
14:30What the hell did you do?
14:31What?
14:32It's your fault.
14:32He's dead.
14:33The hell are you, squad?
14:34Hey, leave her alone.
14:35Hey.
14:36Ma'am, ma'am.
14:37Calm down.
14:38Who is this guy?
14:39He's the reason Heston's dead.
14:41What are you talking about?
14:41I just talked to him this morning.
14:43Get up.
14:44Oh.
14:457, Adam, 15.
14:45Can you run a name for me?
14:46Everett Jones, born 0201, 96.
14:50Wait, he's not really dead, is he?
14:51Yes, he is.
14:52If you know anything about it, you need to tell us right now.
14:54Dude, I don't know anything.
14:55Liar!
14:56You don't have a specific accusation.
14:58No.
14:59But Everett's husband's been hanging out with this loser.
15:01He's been getting himself in trouble.
15:027, Adam, 15.
15:03First name Everett, last name Jones.
15:05Price for criminal threats and badishing a firearm.
15:08You're under arrest for salt and battery.
15:10It's at me.
15:11The detectives will come by later to talk to you and your mom.
15:13If you have any questions, give me a call.
15:15Thanks for jumping in the fight.
15:25No problem.
15:26And I'm sorry for biting your head off.
15:28It's okay.
15:29I can't even imagine what you must be feeling right now.
15:34Take care of yourself.
15:41You okay?
15:45Better than her.
15:49Come on.
15:52Turn to the right.
15:54Okay.
15:54And that concludes today's festivities.
15:56Transport will be here soon.
16:01You want me to do the paperwork?
16:03Nope.
16:04It was a nice job out there.
16:06Thanks.
16:07So you're just not going to let me help you at all?
16:09I don't need any help.
16:10I already told you.
16:11I'm fine.
16:12We'll see.
16:15Abigail?
16:16Hey.
16:17Hi.
16:18I'm so glad you're okay.
16:19Did you get the flowers we sent?
16:21And the basket.
16:23So you're Nolan's ride-along.
16:26How's it going?
16:27It's a lot.
16:29The hell is this?
16:30I let you run around with Harper for half a day
16:31and you start hugging people on duty?
16:33Don't listen to him.
16:34He's all bark.
16:35I gotta pee.
16:36I'll bark.
16:40She is not buying what you're selling.
16:42It's because I don't hold her fate in my hands.
16:45I heard you dodged the bullets.
16:46Yeah.
16:47A few.
16:49What, are you keeping tabs on me?
16:52If you need me, then you let me know.
16:55You got a time machine?
16:59I wish I did.
17:01All right, Everest.
17:02Time to come clean.
17:04You need to tell us what you know about Heston.
17:05Maybe he did really jump.
17:07How the hell should I know?
17:07When my sister tried to scratch your eyes off,
17:09she thinks you're responsible.
17:10Well, I was at the DMV in Culver City all morning
17:12clearing out tickets, so...
17:13They got cameras there, so if you're lying...
17:15I'm not.
17:15And I know my rights,
17:16and I don't have to talk to you two anymore, so...
17:19Get them processed.
17:22I'll get the detectives table up to speed.
17:24Right.
17:27You warned me, and I didn't listen.
17:29Like it or not, I'm a celebrity now.
17:31Celebrity adjacent.
17:32Hey, whatever.
17:33Look, either way,
17:34somebody almost got hurt today because of me.
17:36Because I thought it would be cool
17:38to walk down the actual red carpet,
17:39have people take my picture.
17:41Made me feel important.
17:41You're young.
17:42You still think popularity matters.
17:43So what do I do?
17:45I can't answer that.
17:47You think I should break things off with Sterling?
17:50Unless you got another way to stay under the radar.
17:53Yeah.
17:54A little hungry?
18:04No.
18:07I get it.
18:09This job isn't how you imagined it would be.
18:13What's gonna happen with Everest?
18:15When you've got an alibi,
18:16your detectives will want it down.
18:18If it's real,
18:18I'll get sighted out,
18:19be home before dark.
18:21It's still possible Heston's death
18:22was an accident or a suicide.
18:24An autopsy's gonna shed some light on that.
18:26Look, it's good that you see now
18:29how rough this job can be
18:30before you sign on.
18:32Now you can move on
18:33and figure out what it is you really want to do.
18:36But I really want to do this
18:38now more than ever.
18:39Your job affects people,
18:41makes a difference in their lives.
18:43If there had been a cop like you around
18:45back when I needed help,
18:46things would have been different.
18:48Thanks for making today happen
18:51and for believing in me.
19:03Hey, where's your ride alone?
19:05Oh, Henry came to pick her up.
19:06They're crashing a wedding in Malibu
19:07to see if they like the place.
19:09Well, let her know.
19:10I thought she showed some solid instincts today.
19:12She's clearly got some fight in her,
19:14so I'd be happy to put in a word
19:16when she turns 21.
19:17That's very nice of you.
19:18You should know.
19:19She's got a little trouble in her past, you know.
19:21She knows that's gonna make the world
19:22a little harder for her,
19:23but she's committed.
19:25Okay, what kind of trouble?
19:27Ex-boyfriend put some revenge porn
19:29on the Internet when she was 17.
19:31She kind of torched his car.
19:33She'll never be a cop.
19:34She knows she handled it the wrong way.
19:36She did a ton of communication.
19:36It doesn't matter.
19:37The law sees it as an incident
19:39of domestic violence.
19:40It's a hard pass at the Academy.
19:42There's gotta be something she can do.
19:43There isn't.
19:44It's a shame.
19:46She seemed like a good kid.
20:04You're not gonna shower?
20:05Uh, I'm gonna do it at home.
20:08Oh, but you're not going home.
20:09What?
20:10Ready?
20:11Almost.
20:12I'm sorry, ready, ready for what?
20:14We have plans.
20:16Girls' night.
20:17Oh, I get it.
20:18You've seen that I'm fine on the job,
20:19but you're still not convinced.
20:20No, that's not it.
20:21We just thought it would be fun.
20:23But if you're not up, Red.
20:24Oh, wait.
20:25No, I am.
20:27You guys have just never asked me out before,
20:29but that's great.
20:30Uh, cool.
20:31So where are we going?
20:32A bar?
20:33Club?
20:34Oh, uh, this is a joke, right?
20:43You were right.
20:45I have never gone on a date with a serial killer,
20:48and you have.
20:48And that would make anyone question their judgment.
20:50Yeah, sure, but, uh...
20:52But nothing.
20:53Look, you can never truly know that you are fine
20:55until you know that you can trust your judgment again.
20:57So we're here in this controlled environment
20:59with zero stakes,
21:01so you can meet and evaluate a succession of men.
21:05You can call them men.
21:06Look, I appreciate what you're trying to do here,
21:08and actually, it's fairly psychologically sound,
21:10but this... this is unnecessary.
21:13Well, it'll just be a great story for tomorrow.
21:15You are not going to take no for an answer, are you?
21:17I am just real committed to getting you to say yes.
21:25Okay, fine.
21:26Yes.
21:27Great.
21:28We will be sitting over there,
21:30having just some BYO.
21:32Yeah, I...
21:33No, if I'm doing this,
21:34so are you guys.
21:36Can't have a controlled study without independent data.
21:38Otherwise, how will I know that my judgment is sound?
21:41She's got a point.
21:42Don't make me pull the buried alive card.
21:48Screw it, I'm in.
21:49Well, at the risk of sounding like my mother,
22:04is that what you're wearing tonight?
22:06We got that restaurant opening, the vodka launch, the runway show.
22:09I just thought we could stay in tonight.
22:12I ordered pizza, extra large with all the toppings.
22:16See, my PR rep had to pull massive strings to get us into that vodka launch.
22:20Well, I'm not dating your PR rep, and I don't care about vodka launches and runway shows.
22:25Well, that's not true.
22:27You're right.
22:27I would love to go to a runway show, just not tonight.
22:31Okay, hey, hey.
22:33What is going on with you?
22:36Okay, um...
22:38I got recognized at work from the red carpet last night.
22:42That is so cute.
22:43No, it's not.
22:44It was a real problem.
22:45Like, Sterling, I have to be anonymous for my job.
22:48What are you saying?
22:50I don't know.
22:51Look, but if we could just stay in tonight,
22:53it would really mean a lot to me, please.
22:55Look, this PR stuff, it's part of my job.
22:58It's how I make connections, stay relevant.
23:00Jackson, don't let me go without you.
23:05We'll have fun.
23:06Yeah, but we can have fun here.
23:08I can't.
23:09I have to go.
23:13Okay.
23:14Yeah.
23:22Thanks.
23:26For nothing.
23:27You ready?
23:32Uh...
23:34Hey.
23:35Thanks.
23:44Okay, let's do this.
23:45Do you ever have any intrusive thoughts?
23:48I mean, I know it's not PC to say,
23:51but women are paid less
23:53because they just naturally take through a risk.
23:56So there I was,
23:57wandering the crash site carrying this guy's leg.
24:00Mm-hmm.
24:01Did you have any early behavioral issues?
24:03How would you describe your relationship with your mom?
24:05And would you submit yourself to a full background check?
24:08If not, um...
24:09Why?
24:10Don't say anything.
24:15Let's just sit here
24:16until the timer goes off.
24:18Anyway,
24:19I learned my lesson.
24:20Don't wear open-toed shoes
24:21to a crime scene.
24:24Okay.
24:27She did good.
24:28Yeah.
24:28This has actually been
24:29really interesting.
24:31I feel like I learned something about myself.
24:32This is...
24:32grapes.
24:33Oh, you have a string coming.
24:38Hey, hey, hey.
24:40It's okay.
24:40It's okay.
24:42You know, you really shouldn't touch a woman
24:44without asking,
24:45but, you know,
24:45you don't need to make a thing of it, right?
24:47Are you okay?
24:47What happened?
24:59Good morning.
25:03How are you feeling?
25:06Just gearing up for a day
25:07of country clubs and wedding halls.
25:08I mean,
25:09how are you feeling
25:10about the not becoming a cop situation?
25:12I'm fine.
25:13It's not the first time
25:14I lost out on something
25:15because of what happened.
25:17And it won't be the last.
25:18Abigail.
25:19I'm gonna take a shower.
25:20Hey.
25:22Good morning.
25:22Morning.
25:24She's heartbroken, you know.
25:26Yeah, I know,
25:27but, uh,
25:28I think it's for the best.
25:29Henry, I'm disappointed
25:32you feel that way.
25:33You love her,
25:35but you're rooting against her.
25:37All because you can't handle
25:38the idea of her being in danger.
25:40Okay, Dad, that's not fair.
25:41I'm trying to protect her.
25:43Deciding what's best for her
25:44is not protecting her.
25:45That's controlling her,
25:46and you're better than that.
25:48I shouldn't have played alone yesterday,
25:49and that's on me,
25:50but I would be a failure as a father
25:51if I didn't tell you
25:53you're falling down as a fiancé.
25:55Abigail deserves your empathy
25:56and your honesty.
25:59You can't give her that,
26:00and you should tell her it's over.
26:09Uh, yeah?
26:11I don't feel so good.
26:13Did you eat that whole pizza?
26:16I went for a slice when I got home,
26:18but the box was empty.
26:19Of course.
26:20I spent the whole night in bed,
26:22shame eating,
26:22while I refreshed Sterling's Instagram feed.
26:24Oh, no.
26:26FOMO overload?
26:27Oh, yeah.
26:27You have no idea.
26:28Red carpets, gift bags,
26:30and guess who's Sterling sat next
26:32to the fashion show?
26:33Hmm.
26:33Lady Gaga.
26:34Oh, my God.
26:35And you missed her?
26:36I know.
26:37And that's when I ordered another pizza.
26:39I'm sorry.
26:39What, you ate two pizzas?
26:41Sounds so bad when you say it out loud.
26:43And completely unsustainable
26:45as a coping mechanism.
26:47Oh.
26:49What are you gonna do?
26:50I think I have to break up with them.
26:55I'm sorry.
26:56Yeah, me too.
26:58Just, I like them.
27:00Like, a lot.
27:01Well, on the bright side,
27:02you won't be alone in being alone.
27:05You know, we can FOMO together.
27:07Okay.
27:13Hey.
27:14You seen Nolan?
27:15Not yet.
27:16Hey, Lucy had a bit of a moment last night
27:18when we're out.
27:19It's not a big deal.
27:20She's fine.
27:20What the hell's Harper doing?
27:21Help me.
27:22Don't get all Tim on me.
27:22I just thought you should know.
27:24Lucy's okay?
27:26She will be.
27:27All right.
27:28Thanks for letting me know.
27:31Nolan, I got something.
27:33Me too.
27:33Who goes first?
27:34I do.
27:35Listen, medical examiner called.
27:36Heston Dayton wasn't a jumper.
27:38Pushed?
27:38More like tossed.
27:39He was dead before he left the roof.
27:41Strangled.
27:42Weirdly, he also had acid burns
27:44on his forearms less than a week old.
27:45Well, funny you should say that.
27:46I looked up the arrest records for Everest Jones.
27:49His burglary charge was for stealing drain cleaner,
27:51which contains silver or gas.
27:53Which is used to cook meth.
27:54You think they were cooking it in the trailer park?
27:56No.
27:56I would have smelled it.
27:57So what now?
27:57We bring the detectives up to speed?
27:59Not yet.
28:00Let's go to Everest first.
28:02I know what you're thinking,
28:03but I'm fine.
28:05You nearly broke that guy's arm.
28:07I was just doing what they taught us in the academy.
28:08React quickly.
28:10Subdue the threat.
28:10He was picking a piece of thread off of your shirt.
28:16And you got triggered.
28:17Yeah, well, what do you know about it?
28:18When you're undercover,
28:31you can't let go for even a second.
28:34You have to maintain complete control over your responses.
28:37Read between every glance.
28:39It is physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausting.
28:42Okay, and what, you slipped up
28:45and one of them figured out you were a cop?
28:47What?
28:49I always met my case officer at a bar.
28:57It was the one place that I could go
28:59where I could drop the character
29:01and I could stop strategizing
29:04and just have a beer and be myself.
29:08So one night, one beer turned into two,
29:11which turned into, you know, I lost count.
29:15And if it were any other scenario,
29:18I would have sobered up.
29:20I would have cut myself off, but...
29:26I wasn't with the crooks.
29:30I was with another cop.
29:35And I trusted him.
29:41I'm so sorry.
29:47Yeah, it was a long time ago, but...
29:50My point is...
29:54I shut down.
29:57I didn't even tell my husband.
30:00I just, I kept telling myself
30:02that I would deal with it when I was ready.
30:04But with every passing week, it just got worse.
30:07Maybe I pushed you too hard last night.
30:12But I know what it is like
30:13when you do not face things head on.
30:18Okay.
30:20Yeah.
30:22You're gonna get through this.
30:25I promise.
30:26What, what happened to him, your case officer?
30:36He fell down a flight of stairs a few times.
30:38Had to take a disability pension.
30:46You and Chad are close, right?
30:48Yeah, I'd say so.
30:50How is she doing?
30:52I mean, really doing.
30:54She's good.
30:55Really?
30:57I think she'll be better
30:58once she gets to that tattoo room.
31:00Can you imagine that?
31:02Walking around every day
31:03branded by the worst thing
31:04that's ever happened to you?
31:05You think because it's physical, it's worse?
31:07Tragedies always leave scars.
31:10Only some of them you can see.
31:19That can't be good.
31:21We saw two dead bastards leaving the park
31:22when we pulled in there yesterday.
31:23It can't be a coincidence.
31:25Let me guess.
31:25They sell a little meth?
31:26A lot of meth.
31:27And they wouldn't take Kylie to a couple of idiots
31:29trying to cook and sell in their territory.
31:30So they chuck Heston off of a roof,
31:32come back by the park
31:33to do the same to Everest,
31:35but leave when they see us.
31:36Yeah, but now they came back
31:36to finish the job.
31:38Confiscate any product or cash
31:39they find on site.
31:40So what's our next move?
31:41Calling the cavalry.
31:42I hope nobody gets killed
31:43while we're waiting.
31:49Seven out of 15 in position for recon.
31:51Stand by for tactical assessment.
31:52Roger that.
31:53We just landed at the staging area
31:54around the corner.
31:55SWAT's mobilizing,
31:56but I'm not sure we can wait around
31:57for them to land.
31:58Set up an OP and then report back to me.
32:01Okay, Bradford and Nolan
32:02are hopping the wall
32:03to give us eyes inside.
32:05Get ready to move out.
32:05Let's go.
32:35Get them back inside.
32:51Sarge, this thing is going south fast.
32:54I definitely don't think
32:54we can wait for SWAT.
32:55Copy that.
32:56You two proceed to target.
33:00That's my truck.
33:02What?
33:03I left it to Abigail and him.
33:05We two go take a look at wedding venues.
33:07Are you sure?
33:08Yes.
33:10They must have come here to see Alan.
33:12Abigail was talking about her last night.
33:15Sarge, we have a new situation.
33:20Where did he cook?
33:22I don't know.
33:23Try again.
33:24Hey, sit down.
33:25Stop, stop.
33:25She doesn't know anything.
33:27Okay, how about you?
33:28You know where the kid cooked?
33:30Where he kept the cash?
33:31No.
33:32Man, we don't know anything.
33:33We're just, we're just in the wrong place
33:35at the wrong time.
33:36A lot of that going around.
33:41People wandering in a territory
33:43they got no business in.
33:44Message gotta get sent.
33:46You killed my brother.
33:47No, he killed himself, really.
33:49But being stupid enough
33:50to wander into the middle
33:51of a criminal enterprise
33:52like a turkey,
33:53staring up at the rain
33:55and then drowning.
33:56That's a myth, actually.
33:58What's that?
33:59Turkeys don't actually do that.
34:00Look up at the rain and drown.
34:02Okay, okay.
34:02If somebody don't start telling me
34:04what it is I need to know right now,
34:06then Big Beth is gonna drown you
34:07in the toilet.
34:12We're in position.
34:13All units, green light.
34:14I repeat, green light.
34:15Green light.
34:16Get out of your stomach!
34:41Arms out, palms up!
34:46Move!
34:46Stay right!
34:49We've got some gear.
34:54Jack flight!
34:56Shake your...
34:57Shake your...
34:57Ah, catch.
35:04No.
35:04No, no, no.
35:06No, no.
35:08No, no.
35:12No, no, no.
35:14No, no, no.
35:16Did you check the place?
35:17I did.
35:17Check it again.
35:27What the hell are you doing back there?
35:44Go, go, go, go, go.
35:46Get on the ground now!
35:47Get on the ground!
35:48Get down!
35:49Right now!
35:52Clear!
35:52Oh, clear.
35:54Got him?
35:55Got him.
35:55Hey, you okay?
35:57What?
35:57Yes, we were okay.
35:58What?
36:04Police!
36:06Don't bring your lock down on your knees.
36:08Hands behind your head, fingers laced.
36:09Don't move.
36:10Seven out of 19, two suspects in custody.
36:12Code four.
36:13Come on.
36:20It's totally your fault.
36:34Well, this is my fault.
36:35How is this my fault?
36:35This is all your fault.
36:36Because I like going out.
36:37Are you crazy?
36:38You're the one that's putting your job ahead of our relationship.
36:40Because it is not a relationship.
36:41I'm just arm-candidating you to all your celebrity responsibilities.
36:43How do you say that?
36:44Because it's true.
36:46Well, if you're so unhappy, then walk away, okay?
36:48I'm not going to stop you.
36:49I know you won't.
36:50That's why it's over.
36:51Fine.
36:51You okay?
37:03Yeah.
37:04That was hard.
37:09That was awesome.
37:11Honestly, I'm glad we didn't get a chance to rehearse.
37:13Because first take, always the best.
37:15I know, right?
37:15I mean, you're such a good actor.
37:16I totally believe you're breaking up with me.
37:17Dude, you're incredible.
37:18In fact, you were so good, I could probably get you a guest role on the show.
37:21Aw, that's so sweet.
37:23Focus.
37:24The public breakup was meant to get you out of the spotlight.
37:27As long as you guys stay off the radar, Jackson's choices in the department stay open.
37:31Right.
37:31Sorry, I got carried away.
37:33Well, it's because you're passionate.
37:34That's what I dig about you.
37:35Hey, you got any of that pizza left at your place?
37:38I'm starving.
37:41It's so funny.
37:43Can we go?
37:46Finally found the one thing that makes me not want to be a cop.
37:49Yes, the paperwork is the bitch.
37:52Who's the bitch?
37:52Oh, you're my bitch.
37:54Okay.
37:55Can we go home now?
37:56I have another 30 minutes here, but you guys should take off.
37:59I'll meet you at home.
38:00Sure.
38:03Today was scary.
38:05Yes, it was.
38:06Yeah.
38:06You're used to it, though, right?
38:08Used to it?
38:08No, no, no.
38:09Especially not with you two in danger.
38:11But we're trained to deal with our fear.
38:14You know, most people operate in fear and conflict-free environments, so when something shocking happens, they're overwhelmed and they panic or freeze.
38:24Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.
38:26Exactly, and cops are a little used to getting punched in the mouth.
38:30Conflict is literally in the job description, so we try to recognize fear and not let them paralyze us.
38:35Never thought about it that way.
38:37My man didn't freeze when the bullets started flying.
38:40He jumped on top of me.
38:42My hero.
38:42I'm not a hero.
38:46Um, I have to tell you something.
38:48I wasn't supportive of you wanting to be a cop.
38:52I asked my dad if he could scare you straight, and he called me out for being selfish.
38:59And he was right.
39:01Oh.
39:02Look, you deserve so much better.
39:06And I'll understand if you don't want to marry me anymore.
39:09Well, that escalated quickly.
39:18You're not...
39:19You're not upset?
39:21A little.
39:23I don't know why you didn't just say something.
39:26But...
39:28I get it.
39:29I'm a bit of a wild card.
39:31You grew up in a stable home with parents who believed in you.
39:36I'm used to people underestimating me.
39:39I just didn't think you were one of them.
39:43But we'll work through it.
39:46You're not getting rid of me that easily.
39:48Thank God.
39:52Proud of you.
39:53Proud of both of you.
39:54And I think we should celebrate Henry who found maturity.
39:59This pie.
40:00Now you're talking.
40:01Wait, wait.
40:02Don't you have to finish your paperwork?
40:03I'll come in early tomorrow.
40:04Come on.
40:04Come on.
40:09Hey.
40:18Hi.
40:19You got no quid in you, do you, boo?
40:20No, sir.
40:21I get that from you.
40:22I don't think so.
40:24You walked in the door this way.
40:26That's what makes you so aggravating.
40:28I'm taking that as a compliment.
40:30It was meant to be.
40:32You have a good night.
40:33You too.
40:33You know, I got half a dozen scars, bullet wounds, knife wounds, broken bottle.
40:48Then there's the ones you can't see.
40:50Isabel's addiction.
40:52Uh, dad who would tune me up on the regular.
40:55And whether I like it or not, they're a part of me.
40:59I, I know what you're trying to do and I appreciate it, but this is different.
41:04I was tattooed by a sadist who etched my day of death into my skin.
41:09Okay, but you didn't die.
41:10Okay, you lived.
41:11And now he's the one in the ground.
41:12But.
41:13I'm not trying to tell you what to do with it.
41:16Okay, burn it off.
41:18Keep it.
41:18Whatever gives you peace.
41:20All I'm trying to do is give you some hard-won perspective.
41:23You can choose to see that tattoo as your greatest failure.
41:29But I see it as proof that you're a survivor.
41:33It wasn't your day of death, Officer Chen.
41:35It was the first day of the rest of your life.
41:40And no one can take that away from you.
41:45Thanks.
41:46Yeah.
41:48You're welcome.
41:51Are you riding with me tomorrow?
41:52Yes, sir.
41:56Good.
41:57Get in early.
41:58Four bags need restocking.
41:59Okay.
42:00Okay.
42:22Good.
42:23Bye.
42:24Bye.
42:50Bye.
42:50Bye.
42:51Damn it.
