00:00Hey, you're not nervous I'm going to embarrass you in front of your old captain, are you?
00:07Of course not. I don't know why I'm so anxious.
00:09Russ has always been one of my biggest champions.
00:11He's the one that pushed me to go to Officer Kennedy's squad for my first tour.
00:15Well, I'm sure he's not coming all the way to L.A.
00:17so that he could tell you he's disappointed with you.
00:19I just wish he would give me some sort of idea what this is about, but that's Russ.
00:23There she is!
00:24Hey, Russ! It's so good to see you!
00:28John Nolan.
00:28Colonel Russell Wilkes, please, call me Russ.
00:32It's a pleasure to finally meet the man behind the story.
00:34Yeah, likewise. Sit down.
00:37Really appreciate you being here, John.
00:39No, I didn't give away too much over the phone, but what I'm here to discuss would affect both your lives.
00:44Seems only fair to include you in the conversation.
00:46The SecDef has tasked me with putting together a working group inside the Pentagon.
00:50Wow.
00:51A team of my own choosing that will spearhead bring the battlefield medicine into the 22nd century.
00:56It's the most consequential assignment of my career.
00:58And you are the first person who I'm asking to be a part of this.
01:04I mean, it's an honor just to be nominated.
01:06Totally. Russ is a genius.
01:09He could recruit anyone for this working group.
01:11And the fact that he called me first, I mean, that's pretty great.
01:15Yeah, 100%. That's so cool.
01:17But I mean, our life is perfect right now.
01:20There's no way we're messing that up.
01:21No way.
01:22It's perfect.
01:29Police, get down!
01:31This is Bailey Noon, L-A-F-D.
01:32I need an R-A to Central Station Market.
01:35There's a male GSW victim.
01:36He's been shot in the head, in the back.
01:38Two suspects.
01:39Black hoodies, masks, and pants.
01:41One headed east towards Broadway in pursuit of second suspect.
01:45Move, move!
01:45Move, move!
02:15Letting you sleep.
02:17That's sweet.
02:18Wait, are you looking at real estate?
02:21We have to upgrade.
02:23We need more room.
02:24A second.
02:25Tub, a closet that fits all our clothes.
02:28I mean, yeah, sure, that would be nice.
02:29But we created our family here.
02:32Which I love.
02:33But now we're bursting at the seams,
02:34and Mama's ready to crack open that trust fund and get crazy.
02:38I'm not sure I like the sound of that.
02:40Tough.
02:41We have money.
02:42Uh, no.
02:43We have some money.
02:44But housing prices in a lair are insane.
02:49I guess it couldn't hurt to see what's out there.
02:51I love that you've learned to roll with me rather than resisting.
02:54Yes, you have successfully broken my spirit.
02:57Yay.
03:00Quickie before the kids wake up?
03:02Oh, um...
03:04Well...
03:06Mom, come here!
03:11Too late.
03:12I like this one.
03:13I bet you could hang a swing set from that tree right there in the back.
03:17That was my favorite until I saw this.
03:20It has a pool and a gym and a screening room.
03:24Wait, hold up. You got screening room kind of money?
03:27Depends on which one of us you ask.
03:28Wesley is the king of frugality, so he would definitely say no.
03:32But I lived on credit cards until I met him,
03:34so I'm way more comfortable pushing the envelope.
03:37Hey, Nolan, did you tell Officer Hart that the shooters last night were furries?
03:42No, I said they were wearing hoodies.
03:46Are you taking the case?
03:47Yeah. Do you mind just walking us through it?
03:48Yeah. Uh, Bailey and I were coming back from dinner at Central Station Market.
03:52Date night?
03:53No. Her former commanding officer came to offer her a job.
03:56A Pentagon think tank.
03:58Wow. You really married outside of your league.
04:00I know, right?
04:01So is she going to take it?
04:02No. Uh, it would mean relocating to D.C., so it's a non-starter for us.
04:06I mean, it might be a non-starter for you,
04:07but I guarantee that your overachiever of a wife is seriously thinking about it.
04:11No. Actually, she was laughing it off when we talked about,
04:15oh, my God, she's actually thinking about it. Seriously.
04:18Okay. Well, no, no.
04:19If that's something she really wants to do, relocating to D.C. could be cool.
04:23It's not.
04:23I spent time there during my joint ops days.
04:25It took me about three weeks to unclench every time I came home.
04:29Thank you for that insight.
04:31So, any clarity on the victim?
04:33Fred Wilson, 48, CPA, married, no kids, no criminal record.
04:38Making him an unlikely candidate for a targeted assassination.
04:41Is there anything else about the shooters that you didn't give heart?
04:45Sorry, I did not get a good look at them.
04:47What about CCTV? Anything there?
04:48They were pretty covered up, but take a look at this.
04:55Uh, looks like the letter's SF.
05:01That would make him Southern Front.
05:02No visible tattoos on the second shooter.
05:06Huh.
05:07Yeah.
05:07So, why would a member of a white supremacist gang
05:10partner up with a black man to execute a civilian in broad daylight?
05:14Told you he'd spot it.
05:15You trained him well.
05:16Could be that our innocent CPA was helping the Southern Front launder money,
05:21or maybe he had a drug problem and owed them money.
05:24We're trying to get the M.E. to rush the talk screen, but he's dodging our calls.
05:28Oh, say no more.
05:29I'll go deliver the ask in person.
05:30Let me collect my boot.
05:34Hey, do you know what this is?
05:37An iron?
05:38You know what it's not?
05:39A machete.
05:39I am due in court in two hours to testify about a man attacking people on a bus with a machete.
05:45Okay, something must have got switched around in the evidence locker.
05:46We'll figure it out.
05:47No, no, no.
05:48The case is time not waived.
05:49If we don't find it fast, that psycho is going to be let free.
05:52Okay, have you told the prosecutor?
05:54No.
05:55It's Wesley, and I am just trying to keep him in blissful ignorance as long as possible.
05:59Help me.
06:00That's the case number.
06:01No, I know, but it's wrong.
06:03The case number isn't wrong.
06:04The item might be wrong, but numbers are just numbers.
06:09Fine.
06:09Um, so the point is, I have to be at court, uh, and I need that machete, like, ASAP.
06:16Case number?
06:17Oh.
06:17Uh, we're not going to find it by using the case number.
06:20The number's got switched.
06:21Well, if you don't have the case number, then I can't help you.
06:23Oh, Wesley's going to kill me.
06:24It's, uh, relax.
06:25Maybe it's just a typo, right?
06:27The first eight numbers are the date.
06:29The crime was on January 20th.
06:31Try 2010-2026.
06:37Try 0201-2026.
06:41Wow.
06:4220-01-2025.
06:49Are you sure you used the new data entry procedure?
06:51We changed it a few months ago.
06:53Of course I did.
06:54I keep, but I wasn't the one who logged the entry because you wouldn't approve the overtime.
07:00I had Smitty do it.
07:04What the hell is your problem?
07:06Uh, good morning.
07:07I have bent over backwards to treat you well, and this is how you repay me.
07:11I don't, I'm sorry, I don't know what's happening right now.
07:13Like hell.
07:14You know, your little innocence act would be a lot more believable if they weren't in your office.
07:18Just know this.
07:19If you go through with it, I will do everything in my power to absolutely destroy you.
07:24Hi.
07:31Who are you?
07:32What are you doing in my office, and why has it sent Vivian into a rage spiral?
07:35Rita Sanchez, this is Bradley Wirth.
07:38We work with the Democratic Party, and we want you to run for district attorney.
07:42And now it makes sense.
07:43That's a hard no for me, by the way, but thanks for stopping by.
07:46Look, you obviously know that Vivian Eckhart's running on a post since Del Monte dropped out of the race.
07:50Yeah, but that was a month ago.
07:51Why come to me now?
07:52Candidly, we've been having a hard time finding someone to take up his mantle.
07:57So I'm your last choice?
07:59Hardly.
08:02Look, Mr. Evers, I wish there was time for us to do our usual dance of seduction and ego stroking,
08:08but as you rightly pointed out, we're up against it.
08:10The deadline to enter this race is in three days.
08:12And Vivian becoming DA is worst-case scenario for the people of the city.
08:15I mean, she has the most regressive record in your office.
08:18Oh, I agree.
08:18But there's zero chance of me beating her.
08:20I was temporarily disbarred.
08:21Because of your dealings with Elijah Stone, we know.
08:23Yeah, and we are prepared to embrace that.
08:26I mean, you're a hero who put his life and career on the line to take down a very dangerous kingpin.
08:31Voters love a man who's willing to stand up for what's right.
08:33Not to mention, you're married to a cop,
08:35which automatically makes you a more attractive candidate to anyone worried that progressive means soft on crime.
08:41Look, I don't want Vivian to win any more than you do, but I...
08:45But nothing.
08:46A Vivian victory will hurt a lot of people.
08:48And right now, you're our last hope at stopping her.
08:50It may be a long shot, but isn't it worth the risk?
08:56I thought you didn't have time to stroke my ego.
09:00You have to let me see you.
09:02I don't, actually.
09:03On TV, the family has to identify the body.
09:05Yeah, we don't do that anymore.
09:07That's right, ma'am.
09:09It's no longer policy.
09:10But trust me, it's for the best.
09:12Seeing your loved one like that, it...
09:14it changes how you remember them forever.
09:17I don't understand.
09:19Fred was a saint.
09:21Why would someone want to kill him?
09:22Well, that's what we're trying to figure out.
09:25He's really dead?
09:27Yes, ma'am.
09:28I'm afraid so.
09:29And we are so sorry for your loss.
09:32Okay.
09:38Thanks for the assist.
09:40Grief makes people a little crazy,
09:42and I don't like dealing with them when they're normal.
09:44Why?
09:44You work with the dead, I suppose.
09:48Anything jump out at you, the preliminary autopsy?
09:50No, a run-of-the-mill gun homicide.
09:53The bullet to the head killed him instantly,
09:55but the shot to the body was fatal as well.
09:57Any signs of drug use?
09:58No, but the talk screen is underway.
10:01I'll let Harper and Lopez know the second it comes in.
10:04Perfect.
10:04Thank you very much.
10:05I once had a widower insist on seeing his wife's body back when I was in Sugar Land.
10:10Ended up suing the city for mental anguish.
10:12Did he win?
10:13No.
10:14Case got dismissed when he was convicted of her murder.
10:17Wow.
10:17Hey, police, let her go.
10:21Whoa!
10:21Hey, hi, hi.
10:22It's all good.
10:23She's fine.
10:24I'm fine.
10:25Yeah, I can see that.
10:27But two minutes ago, you were grieving.
10:29I'm still grieving.
10:30It manifests itself in unknowable ways.
10:33Right.
10:33But you brought your boyfriend to help you identify your husband's body?
10:36Well, I needed emotional support.
10:40She's very sensitive.
10:42Yeah.
10:42Well, you can emotionally support each other on the way to the station.
10:45Let's go.
10:46Oh.
10:47This way.
10:47This way?
10:48Yes.
10:48Okay.
10:49Put your hands down.
10:49Yes, sir.
10:50Wow.
10:52I know this looks bad.
10:54Understatement.
10:56Your husband was murdered, and in less than 24 hours, you were getting busy with your side
11:00piece down the hall from his body.
11:02I didn't even want to be there.
11:05I told Faith it would look weird, but she insisted.
11:09So you were just trying to be a good boyfriend?
11:12Todd is a terrible boyfriend.
11:14He's a lot of fun, but anything that requires emotional depth.
11:18Okay, what about Fred?
11:19What was he like?
11:20He was always super cool anytime that I came by.
11:24You're saying Fred knew about the affair?
11:26It wasn't an affair.
11:27It was an open marriage.
11:30The whole thing was Fred's idea.
11:32Guy wanted a little bit of peace.
11:34Is it possible that Todd wanted you all to himself?
11:37Listen, I am twice divorced.
11:40I am still paying alimony to the first.
11:43I am not trying to put a ring on it.
11:45There's a reason why Todd is divorced.
11:49Todd is a good time, like Coney Island.
11:52Fred, on the other hand, was deep and soulful and romantic.
12:00Like Paris.
12:05Coney Island is fun to visit, but you don't move there over Paris.
12:10What do you think?
12:11I think people are crazy.
12:13But neither of them is a physical match for the shooters.
12:15Still doesn't rule out murder for hire.
12:18Well, yeah.
12:19Did you put Wesley up to this?
12:21No idea what you're talking about, but if it's pissing you off, I'm happy to take credit.
12:25If he insists on moving forward, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to keep you out of the crossfire.
12:33Did she just threaten me?
12:34Sure seems like it.
12:36But why?
12:37No idea.
12:38But I'm gonna find out.
12:40Oh, husband!
12:42You only call me husband when you're mad.
12:44What did I do?
12:44You tell me.
12:45Vivian just stopped by.
12:46She told you I was running for DA.
12:49Wait, you're running for DA?
12:51Since when?
12:52No, no, no.
12:52Wait, it got sprung on me this morning.
12:54What does that mean?
12:54Some people came to talk to me about taking over Sean's campaign.
12:57And you told them no.
12:58I did.
13:00Initially.
13:01But...
13:01But...
13:02Now you're thinking about it?
13:04I mean, I'd at least like to discuss it.
13:06But I am supposed to be on my way to court right now.
13:09Only Lucy texted to tell me that our key piece of evidence is missing.
13:12So is there any chance that we can just table this until tonight?
13:14Fine.
13:14But only because yelling at you in the bullpen might come across as unprofessional.
13:19I love you.
13:25Everything okay?
13:26Are you free for dinner tonight?
13:27Depends.
13:28Can I bring James?
13:29As long as you tell him he has to be Team Lopez on the penalty of death.
13:33Uh, we'll be sure to prep him.
13:36I remember Lucy gave me the machete and I logged it like I always do.
13:41Okay, so that right there is the problem, Smitty.
13:43The system changed.
13:45Most of the world uses day, month, year.
13:46Month, day, year was causing all of these issues for us with our international cases, which
13:51is why we switched.
13:52You know, didn't you read the memo?
13:55Sorry, wait.
13:56I just heard that out loud.
13:57Of course you didn't.
13:57Important memos are always covered in the roll call.
14:01Why do I have a panicked ADA knocking on my door to ask for my help to find a missing
14:06machete?
14:07Because Smitty wasn't listening when he went over the change in how we filed case numbers.
14:11What, the day, month, year thing?
14:13Yeah.
14:14I didn't go over it.
14:15My last day as watch commander was crazy.
14:17I left it for you to do.
14:18I thought you handled it.
14:19Oh, it's not my fault.
14:20It's yours.
14:21Everyone got the memo.
14:22It's still your fault, Smitty.
14:23Well, it's still on him for trusting me.
14:25I didn't trust you.
14:26I thought he covered it, and I just didn't follow up.
14:28I can't believe I dropped the ball out.
14:29I don't care whose fault it is.
14:31I need the machete.
14:32Smitty used the old system, right?
14:34Try 01-20-20-26.
14:37I can't.
14:38It's a drop-down menu.
14:40There's no 20th month.
14:41What, so you can enter the 20th month, but you can't retrieve the 20th month?
14:44Correct.
14:44No, that's wrong.
14:45It shouldn't work that way.
14:46But that is how it works.
14:48Wesley says the judge is losing his patience.
14:51If you can't produce the evidence, he's prepared to dismiss the case.
14:54Guys, this is bigger than one case.
14:57Everything Smitty logged has been misfiled, going back two months.
15:01Did the widow shed some light?
15:03Uh, not exactly, but her doorbell cam did.
15:05This is from two days ago.
15:06The car is registered to a Ryder Frost, known member of the Southern Front.
15:11Well, that tattoo is a match.
15:12Definitely could be our shooter.
15:13Any idea who the other fella is?
15:15Not yet, but his tats are 54th Street Gang.
15:17Besides the racial element, don't SF and the 5-4 compete for the same meth business?
15:21They did up until a few months ago when the Armenians pushed Southern Front further into the valley.
15:26But they are certainly not allies.
15:28They case the garage, but not the house.
15:30Any idea what they were looking for?
15:32We've got a last known for Ryder.
15:33We're hoping you go ask him.
15:34Wait!
15:50Control and pursuit of suspect at Green Royal Lake Apartments.
15:52Send backup.
15:53Kevin, hey!
15:54We're thinking, hey!
15:55We're going to die!
16:00Come on!
16:07Come on!
16:09Come on!
16:13Come on!
16:15Come on!
16:15The third floor is heading for the roof!
16:18Come on!
16:19Come on!
16:20Come on!
16:20Come on!
16:20Come on!
16:21Come on!
16:21Come on!
16:21Come on!
16:22Stop!
16:23I lift your knee!
16:25Come on, Ryder.
16:26There's nowhere to go.
16:27Put your hands on your head.
16:28Down on your knees.
16:29Wait, wait, wait!
16:30Stop!
16:31Stop!
16:32Stop!
16:33Stop!
16:34Stop!
16:35Stop!
16:36Stop!
16:37Stop!
16:38Stop!
16:39Stop!
16:40Stop!
16:41Stop!
16:42Stop!
16:43Stop!
16:44Stop!
16:45Stop!
16:46Stop!
16:47Stop!
16:48Stop!
16:49Stop!
16:50Stop!
16:51Stop!
16:52I'm sorry, are these cases from the future?
17:01Apparently the system didn't know what to do with month 20, and so it just made the math
17:05work, and 12 months plus 8 is August 20, 27.
17:08Cases from 21st become September of next year, and so on.
17:10This is unbelievable.
17:11The judge granted a continuance, but we need the machete by noon tomorrow.
17:15Yep.
17:16Don't worry.
17:17We will have it.
17:18I'll stick around.
17:19I feel responsible.
17:20It's completely on me.
17:21You're on your way out.
17:22Okay.
17:23You guys are both Spartacus, okay?
17:24Let's please start opening the boxes.
17:25Are you coming?
17:26No.
17:29Russ, I thought you had a flight to catch.
17:31I do, but I couldn't leave L.A. without making one last appeal.
17:34Well, I guess you better come in then.
17:38Oh.
17:39You've really made a nice life for yourself here, noon.
17:43I can, uh, I can see why you'd hesitate before giving it up, but anything I can say to convince
17:51you?
17:52Can I ask why?
17:53I'm not a doctor or a scientist.
17:56I don't have a PhD.
17:57Why are you asking me?
17:59Maybe you haven't been around long enough to know that having a few extra letters after
18:02your name doesn't make you a genius.
18:04I also know that if I bring you a problem, you won't rest until you've looked at it from
18:07every conceivable angle, twice, before bringing me a solution.
18:11But what if I can't find a solution?
18:13Hell, girl.
18:14That's why they call it a think tank.
18:15It does me no good to have a bunch of identical people with identical viewpoints looking in
18:20identical directions.
18:22Baseball team can't be all pitchers.
18:24You need somebody to play shortstop.
18:25All right.
18:26I'm gonna miss my flight if I don't get going.
18:28So, you know, it'll take a few days to think about it.
18:31Talk it over with your man and call me.
18:34I will.
18:37You know, noon, if you don't want the job because it's not the right fit or the right
18:41time, that's fine.
18:42I get it.
18:43But deciding that you're not good enough before somebody else can, that's the coward's
18:48way.
18:49And I know you're not a coward.
18:52No, sir.
18:53I'm not.
18:58Giddy up.
19:06Yeah.
19:07All right.
19:08Okay.
19:09Thanks for the update.
19:10Suspect in the Central Station Market shooting fell to his death.
19:13That's awful.
19:14Yeah.
19:15Guy thought he was an action hero.
19:16Tried to leap between two buildings.
19:17Any leads on the second shooter?
19:19No, but the brass has been blown up my phone.
19:21You know, a guy falls to his death in a police pursuit.
19:23Everyone's got questions.
19:25Captain.
19:26Always a pleasure.
19:27I do not miss that.
19:28I don't think I've seen him sleep more than four consecutive hours since he took this job.
19:34I know being sidelined for the president's visit shook him up.
19:37And even though it was more of a CYA decision by the brass, an indictment on his performance,
19:42the optics weren't great for him.
19:45Do you think he should be worried?
19:46I think that watch commander is a thinkless job.
19:49You're not in the field, but you're responsible for every knucklehead that is.
19:52Patrol officers want resources you can't give them.
19:54The brass expects results that you realistically can't produce.
19:58And when there's bad press and they're looking for a head to roll.
20:02Right, I don't think of it that way.
20:04Because I made it look easy.
20:06You'll get the hang of it.
20:11The machete!
20:13Yes!
20:14I gotta call Wesley.
20:15I'll wait a beat on that.
20:19I got a crack in my tooth and it's wiggling.
20:23Oh yeah, that sounds horrible.
20:24It wasn't pretty.
20:25That's for sure.
20:26Nolan and I barely had time to twist before it was all over.
20:29Oh, so where does that leave the case?
20:31Still trying to ID the second shooter.
20:34Hmm.
20:37Hey, did you know the Armenians pushed the southern front's meth trade deeper into the-
20:41Deeper into the valley?
20:42Yep.
20:43Happened a few months ago.
20:44That's why I read every gang report the department puts out and I haven't seen anything about that.
20:48Yeah, see those reports only get you so far.
20:50I mean the best information is usually through word of mouth,
20:53which is great for me because I know people from all over the city.
20:56Well, how could I compete with that when I just got here?
20:59It takes time to cultivate that kind of choice.
21:01True, but I mean you'd be shocked by what some of these low-level game makers put on social media.
21:06The L.A. Gang subreddit is a great resource.
21:10Look, I gotta stay up anyway.
21:12I've got a 2 a.m. Zoom date with Raj.
21:14Why don't I show you some of my favorite accounts to follow?
21:17Who knows, you might see something on Ryder.
21:19All right, let's go coach.
21:21I'm ready.
21:23Hey, good to see ya.
21:25You too.
21:26How you doing?
21:27Thought we might need this.
21:28Ooh.
21:29Very thoughtful.
21:30Hi.
21:31What do you guys think?
21:32Should we crack it now or save it for dinner?
21:33My vote is now.
21:34Okay.
21:35And don't be stingy with the pores.
21:37Everyone clear on the plan?
21:40Oh, yes, yes.
21:41Jamie and the Snows agree with everything you say
21:43and keep the starry-eyed reformer talk on a minimum.
21:46Perfect.
21:47Operation Kill a Dream is a go.
21:49Mm-hmm.
21:50He has a point.
21:52We complain all the time about undocumented witnesses
21:54being too scared to testify.
21:56Instituting a policy that would protect them from deportation,
21:59that would be a game-changer.
22:01I thought they were supposed to be Team Lopez.
22:04I know, but it's a good idea.
22:06I'm not saying it's not a good idea,
22:08but I think we're getting away from the larger point,
22:11which is we'd be opening our lives up to public scrutiny,
22:14which would be hard enough for you and me,
22:16and I worry what it'll do to the kids.
22:19So do I.
22:21But I also want them to grow up knowing
22:23that their father is willing to fight
22:25for the rights of everybody, even when it's difficult.
22:27Hey, ma'am.
22:29What? You started it.
22:31Think of what I'd be in the position to influence as the D.A.
22:34I could end cash bail,
22:37expand victim services, emphasize counseling.
22:40Institutional change is always hard.
22:42Right, but does that mean that I shouldn't try?
22:44What about the house?
22:46Yeah, well, we would probably have to wait on that.
22:48I mean, optics would...
22:49And you'd be fine letting public perception dictate
22:52how we live our lives?
22:53In service of real reform?
22:57Maybe.
22:59Real change requires sacrifice.
23:01But I would not do it at the expense of our family.
23:03I would need to know that you were on board.
23:05100%.
23:07I would not do it at the expense of our family.
23:09Hello.
23:11Oh.
23:12Something smells good.
23:14Because I cooked.
23:16More than cooked.
23:18Candles?
23:19Should I be worried?
23:20No, not at all.
23:21I just know you had a really hard day
23:23and I wanted to do something nice for you.
23:25Oh.
23:26Yeah.
23:27Uh-huh.
23:28What do you really want in exchange for this totally no-strings-attached feast?
23:34A conversation.
23:37About DC.
23:38I-I didn't know we needed to have one.
23:40I know.
23:41And that is my fault.
23:42But, all day, I have not been able to get this idea out of my head.
23:47And Russ stopped by on the way to the airport and gave me his final appeal.
23:52And it made me question why I was so quick to shut it down.
23:56Well-
23:57And before you tell me no or give me 100 reasons why it won't work,
24:01all I ask is that you spend some time to explore the idea.
24:05And by that you mean-
24:06See what transferring to DC police would look like.
24:10Make some calls.
24:11Ask some questions.
24:12Kick the tires.
24:13And what if we come to different conclusions?
24:17We abort the mission.
24:19Either we're both in or we're both out.
24:21We need both keys to launch the torpedoes.
24:23Yes.
24:25What do you think?
24:29I think I want you to be happy.
24:31And if this is something you want,
24:34then I will do everything I can from my end to see if it's feasible.
24:40We're in this together.
24:43Is it just me or these numbers starting to blend together?
24:51It is not just you.
24:52Everything okay with the press?
24:54Ryder's death was ruled in accidents,
24:57but there's always a chance they could reopen the case.
24:59Or blame me for this whole evidence-logging mess.
25:02Hey, just take the win.
25:04You're right.
25:06Look, I swear, if I lose Watch Commander because of Smitty-
25:09That's not gonna happen.
25:11I have been manifesting that we will find this machete all day.
25:14Manifesting?
25:15Mm-hmm.
25:16God, I got you away from waters just in time.
25:18Shut up.
25:22You gotta be kidding me.
25:23Hmm?
25:27Oh, my God.
25:30This is it! This is it!
25:31This is it! This is it!
25:32Thank God.
25:33All right, let's go home.
25:34Okay.
25:37Wait, where are you?
25:38A yurt in Finland.
25:40The Northern Lights have been amazing the last few nights.
25:43Jealous.
25:44I know. I wish you were here to see them with me.
25:46Me too. I miss you.
25:48Hey, Selena, I might have found something.
25:50So Ryder...
25:51Is that Miles? Hey, Miles.
25:52Hey, man. How's the Great White North?
25:54He saw the Aurora.
25:55Oh, cool.
25:56Who's Ryder?
25:57A suspect in a murder.
25:58Well, that sounds important. Do you need to go?
25:59No. Just give me one second.
26:02What's up?
26:03Okay, so I was looking through Ryder's juvie file.
26:05Between the ages of nine to 14, he lived in four different foster homes.
26:09One was located in the 54th Street Territory.
26:11Foster parents were Mabel and Raphael Sinclair.
26:14And Raphael died a few years ago, heart attack.
26:16But look at what I found on Mabel.
26:22Babe, I'm sorry. I gotta go.
26:25No worries. Have fun solving your murder.
26:28We will.
26:32This is Mabel Sinclair.
26:34Most of the kids in the neighborhood just call her mom.
26:36Since they know whatever they need, food, a place to stay, clean clothes, Mabel will hook them up.
26:41Well, last week, Mabel was a victim of a hit and run while crossing her street.
26:44Witnesses saw a red sedan speeding away from the scene, but no arrests have been made.
26:48Anyone care to guess what kind of car Fred Wilson drove?
26:51A red camera.
26:52So you think Fred hit Mabel?
26:54Oh, more than that.
26:55Selina ran his vent and found the body shop doing the repairs on his car.
26:59The bumper tested positive for blood.
27:01French sticks are running the sample.
27:03What's Ryder's connection to this woman?
27:05Oh, Mabel was his foster mother.
27:10That's the second shooter.
27:11That is Kingston Holmes, 22, proud member of the 5-4 and former foster brother to Ryder Frost.
27:16So they murdered Fred Wilson as revenge for killing Mabel.
27:21Well, Mabel wasn't dead.
27:23All I remember is going out to bring my trash cans in and then waking up here and they told me it was a hit and run.
27:35Unfortunately, the man suspected of hitting you with his car was murdered.
27:39We have reason to believe your former foster sons, Ryder Frost and Kingston Holmes, want revenge for what happened to you.
27:46It was painful enough losing Ryder and Kingston to the streets.
27:51I don't think I can take knowing that they killed a man because of me.
27:58We're very sorry, but I'm afraid that's not all.
28:01Ryder died yesterday trying to jump between rooftops.
28:05They were just hurt little boys underneath it all, you know?
28:09When Ryder first came to us, he was so shut down, he barely said two words to me that first month.
28:20But Kingston, he always had this way about him, this lightness, even after all he'd been through.
28:29But then they started to do everything together and bit by bit, I got to see Ryder for the sweet, sensitive boy he was.
28:48What happened?
28:49Ryder's mom came back into the picture with her skinhead boyfriend.
28:54And once he was gone, all of Kingston's light went with him.
29:01He started to act out, getting in trouble.
29:07And he was finally put away on some trumped up vandalism charge.
29:14And then he joined the gang in prison.
29:19And suddenly, the two boys I saw become brothers were turned into mortal enemies by the streets.
29:32I'm sorry for how much pain this has caused you, but we like to bring Kingston in without any more bloodshed.
29:38Do you have any way of contacting him?
29:40What do you want me to say?
29:47Hey, the judge signed off on the wiretop. We should be good to go in a few.
29:51Great. What you were saying yesterday about DC and needing to unclench, it can't be that bad, right?
29:58All right, maybe I've just, I've been spoiled by LA. I'm sure the city has a lot of great things about it.
30:05But from what I saw, being a cop there just means a lot of crowd control around government offices, usually in crappy weather, snowstorms in the winter, swamp-like humidity in the summer.
30:18You get two weeks of cherry blossoms a year and that's about it.
30:22Huh. Also, speaking as someone who thought transferring to another department would be easy, be prepared to relearn everything you thought you knew.
30:32Yeah. All right, we gotta go.
30:46Mama?
30:47It's me, baby.
30:48Oh, thank God. I tried to visit you in the ICU, but they said blood family only. They made it sound like you were dying.
30:54Well, I am a little banged up, but I'll be all right.
30:58I wish I could come see you.
30:59Well, me too. You heard about Ryder?
31:05Uh, you know, me and Ryder don't really mess with each other anymore.
31:10He's dead, baby. Killed. Running away from what you boys did.
31:15I don't know what you're talking about.
31:18Kingston, please. You never were a good liar.
31:25You need to turn yourself in.
31:28I can't. You know what happened the last time I went inside? I had to join the 5-4 just to make it out alive.
31:33What other choice do you have?
31:35Just don't worry about me, Mom, okay? Just don't worry. I got a way out.
31:39Into Mexico where I can disappear.
31:41Mexico? What the heck do you know about Mexico?
31:44You know, Kingston, this is Detective Nyla Harper of the LAPD.
31:48Are you working with the cops?
31:50She is trying to save your life. Listen to me. If you run, things will end badly for you.
31:55But if you turn yourself in, we can try and help you.
32:02Please. He's scared. Don't hurt him.
32:06He's not a kid anymore, Miss Sinclair. He killed a man in cold blood.
32:09So now we have to go get him.
32:11What's up?
32:34Yo! What's up, K?
32:36They got you working the door already, huh?
32:38Damn. Those trying to come up.
32:415-4 for life.
32:55Yo, P-Mac.
32:59Uh, can we talk?
33:00For sure! Come here.
33:03You good?
33:04Uh...
33:08Talk to me.
33:12I-I gotta... I gotta get out of town.
33:15You sure you got that hookup with the cartel tunnels into Mexico?
33:18For sure. But why? What happened?
33:21Unless you know the better. Just trust me on that.
33:24When you say trust me, I trust you, okay?
33:27I'll make a few phone calls.
33:29Look, relax. Have a drink.
33:31You know we got you.
33:33We are just trying to get my home.
33:35The other, what is going on?
33:36I can't get my home.
33:37Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
33:38You ain't gonna go get my night.
33:39We gonna go get a new background.
33:40What's up?
33:41What's up?
33:42This is the 1-3.
33:43Y'all, we wanna die.
33:44And you are, they wanna be great.
33:46It's a wanna, oh, oh, oh, oh.
33:49Yeah, yeah.
33:50What's in the deep?
33:51Oh, let's take a little break.
33:52Yo, what...
33:53I truly didn't believe you'd be stupid enough
33:56to bring your dumb ass back around here.
33:58After all the disrespect showing us
34:02Yeah, you hidden civilians you working with Nazis
34:06Trace on Kingston's phone landed at 4700 Hilldale copy that
34:13Pull over up here
34:17But the address is on the next block. Yeah, you recognize that tag?
34:2254th Street
34:24The roll up hoppy could have spotters anywhere exactly
34:28Let's go
34:35Yo young
34:37So big moment man, this the moment you prove how much you love the streets by taking care of a trade-ass bitch that's disrespecting
34:45This the moment you prove to me you a good soldier and you follow orders. I didn't return the streets gonna love you back
34:52Wherever you go the five-fold follow
34:55Follow for life and you take care of this bitch
34:59I'm gonna go to the streets
35:01I'm gonna go to the streets
35:03I'm gonna go to the streets
35:05We ain't got all day.
35:26His watch is ten minutes out. You got eyes on Kingston?
35:28Yeah, but we're looking at a potential murder in progress. We can't wait.
35:35Now smoke this fool.
35:41Police! Stop! Go, go, go!
35:44Hey!
35:46Police! Drop your weapon!
35:55Show me your hands if you're up there!
35:57Go!
36:02Stop!
36:04Run it!
36:07Go, go!
36:11Cover us!
36:12Go!
36:13Stay down! Stay down!
36:21Stay down!
36:34Wait!
36:44Oh!
36:56Wait, wait, wait, wait! Wait, wait, wait, wait, please!
36:58Please! Please!
37:00Please, you can-
37:02You can- You can just say that you didn't see me.
37:04You can say that you didn't see me.
37:06You can say that you didn't see me.
37:07Troy, please! Please!
37:08Get out of your stomach!
37:10Go!
37:13Drop the gun.
37:15Hand with your head.
37:36The key is processed.
37:37Ah, thank you for that.
37:39Um, look, I realize this was a bit of a tough one.
37:42You all right?
37:43I'll be all right.
37:45I know I shouldn't feel sympathy, but he's just a boy.
37:50Look, no one is saying you can't feel sympathy.
37:52But at the end of the day, he did make the choice to pull that trigger.
37:57Why don't you go home? I'll take care of the paperwork.
38:00Yes, sir. Thank you.
38:02You bet.
38:04Uh...
38:06It amazes me how one man can wreak such havoc on the entire LAPD.
38:13Smitty is a force of nature.
38:15Uh, got a minute?
38:16Yeah, sure. What's up?
38:17Well, Bailey has been offered a pretty impressive job in D.C., a Pentagon think tank.
38:24And I was just wondering what a transfer to the DCPD would be like.
38:29Yeah, I can get you in touch with a few people.
38:32But you do know you would have to start at the very bottom again, including redoing the Academy.
38:38I've done it before.
38:39You were also five years younger.
38:41Yes.
38:42You would get a pretty hefty signing bonus.
38:45That's a perk.
38:46But your annual salary would be much less than you make in L.A.
38:50Plus, the cost of living in D.C. is just as expensive.
38:53So, in the long run, your bonus really won't make a difference.
38:57Especially if Bailey's only making the government salary.
39:00Right.
39:01I'm sorry if this is not the answer you were looking for.
39:03No, no, that's, um...
39:06I was just looking for the truth.
39:08Yeah, well, good luck.
39:14Hey.
39:17The LAPD would be sad to see you go.
39:20Thank you, sir.
39:22Guess what?
39:30What?
39:31We won.
39:32That's great.
39:33Did the judge give you any grief about the evidence?
39:35I think he was too confused by the explanation to challenge it.
39:40Take the win.
39:41Mm-hmm.
39:42I prepared a ten-minute lecture for tomorrow's roll call
39:44to make sure no one can ever again use ignorance as an excuse
39:47when mislabeling case numbers.
39:48You know, you're a really good watch commander.
39:51I'm figuring it out.
39:53No, listen.
39:54No matter what kind of craziness is going on at the station,
39:56you're always the center of calm.
39:58Yeah.
39:59And the rest of us need that.
40:00I need that.
40:02Mm-hmm.
40:03Tell you what, list of things we can't trust Smitty with is getting longer.
40:07Do you think he's doing it on purpose?
40:09Weaponized incompetence?
40:10Yeah.
40:11Do you think he's that strategic?
40:12Hey.
40:13Sorry I missed dinner.
40:18Hey, bedtime.
40:23You should run for DA.
40:28Are you sure?
40:30Because if you're not in 100%...
40:31I'm in.
40:32The more I thought about it, the more I realized this was exactly why you joined the DA's office
40:37in the first place.
40:39Hm.
40:40And I'm proud you want to set that example for our children, especially because every day
40:45I see firsthand the people our system has failed.
40:50And inevitably the ones who suffer the most are other kids.
40:55You sure you're okay waiting on a new house?
40:58No.
40:59But like you said, real change requires sacrifice.
41:06And I love this house.
41:08You brought home two babies here.
41:12We also made two babies here.
41:15So we did.
41:17Hm.
41:22No food to entice me with, I see.
41:24No, but I have wine.
41:30Listen, I don't want to beat around the bush.
41:32I did my due diligence and I am sorry, honey.
41:35I don't think I can do DC.
41:38It would mean starting all over again as a rookie.
41:43Only this time, instead of being 45, I'd be 50.
41:46Oh.
41:50What if...
41:53I'm not ready to say no?
41:55Well, you did say we both had to be in or you would walk away.
42:01I know.
42:02And I meant it when I said it.
