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.
00:31It'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.
00:50A team of my own choosing that will spearhead bring me battlefield medicine in the 22nd century.
00:56It's the most consequential assignment of my career.
00:58And you are the first person 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%. It's still 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.
01:23Police, get down.
01:31This is Bailey Noon, L-A-F-D. I need an R-A to Central Station Market.
01:35We have a male GSW victim. He's been shot in the head, in the back.
01:38Two suspects. Black hoodies, masks, and pants.
01:41One headed east towards Broadway in pursuit of second suspects.
01:45Move, move.
01:45Move, move.
02:15Put your money on me when I'm right here.
02:16Letting you sleep.
02:17That's sweet.
02:18Wait, are you looking at real estate?
02:21We have to upgrade.
02:22We need more room.
02:24A second.
02:25Tub.
02:25A 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 we have some money but housing prices in a layer insane
02:49i guess it couldn't hurt to see what's out there i love that you've learned to roll with
02:52me rather than resisting yes you have successfully broken my spirit yay
03:00quickie before the kids wake up oh um
03:03too late i like this one i bet you could hang a swing set from that tree right there in the back
03:17that was my favorite until i saw this it has a pool and a gym and a screening room wait hold up you got
03:25screening room kind of money depends on which one of us you ask wesley is the king of frugality
03:31so he would definitely say no but i lived on credit cards until i met him so i'm way more
03:35comfortable pushing the envelope hey nolan did you tell officer hart that the shooters last night were
03:41furries no i said they were wearing hoodies are you taking the case yeah do you mind just walking
03:48us through it yeah uh bailey and i were coming back from dinner at central station market date night no
03:53her former commanding officer came to offer her a job a pentagon think tank wow you really married
03:59outside of your league i know right so is she gonna take it no uh it would mean relocating to dc
04:04so it's a non-starter for us i mean it might be a non-starter for you but i guarantee that your
04:08overachiever of a wife is seriously thinking about it no actually she was laughing it off when we talked
04:15about oh my god she's actually thinking about it seriously okay well no no if that's something she
04:20really wants to do relocating to dc could be cool it's not i spent time there during my joint ops days
04:26it took me about three weeks to unclench every time i came home thank you for that insight so any
04:31clarity on the victim fred wilson 48 cpa married no kids no criminal record making him an unlikely
04:39candidate for a targeted assassination is there anything else about the shooters that you didn't
04:44give heart sorry i did not get a good look at them what about cctv anything there they were
04:50pretty covered up but take a look at this
04:59uh looks like the litter's sf that would make him southern front no visible tattoos on the second
05:04shooter huh yeah so why would a member of a white supremacist gang partner up with a black man to
05:12execute a civilian in broad daylight i told you you'd spot it you trained him well could be that our
05:17innocent cpa was helping the southern front to launder money or maybe he had a drug problem and
05:23owed them money we're trying to get the me to rush the talk screen but he's dodging our calls oh santa
05:28moore i'll go deliver the ask in person let me collect my boot hey do you know what this is an iron
05:37you know what it's not a machete i am due in court in two hours to testify about a man attacking people
05:43on a bus with a machete okay something must have got switched around in the evidence locker we'll
05:47figure it out no no the case is time not waived if we don't find it fast that psycho is gonna be let
05:52free okay have you told the prosecutor no it's wesley and i am just trying to keep him in blissful
05:57ignorance as long as possible help me that's the case number no i know but it's wrong the case number
06:03isn't wrong the item might be wrong but numbers are just numbers fine um so the point is
06:12i have to be at court uh and and i need that machete like asap case number oh okay uh we're
06:18not gonna find it by using the case number the numbers got switched well if you don't have the
06:21case number then i can't help you oh wesley's gonna kill me it's uh relax maybe it's just a typo
06:27right the first eight numbers are the date the crime was on january 20th try 2010 2026
06:33wow 20-01-2025
06:44are you sure you use the new data entry procedure we changed it a few months ago of course i did i keep
06:54but i wasn't the one who logged the entry because you wouldn't approve the overtime i had smitty do it
07:04what the hell is your problem uh good morning i have bent over backwards to treat you well and
07:10this is how you repay me i don't i'm sorry i don't know what's happening right now like hell you know
07:14your little innocent actor would be a lot more believable if they weren't in your office just know
07:19this if you go through with it i will do everything in my power to absolutely destroy you
07:31hi who are you what are you doing in my office and why has it sent vivian into a rage spiral rita
07:35sanchez this is bradley worth we work with the democratic party and we want you to run for district
07:41attorney and now it makes sense that's a hard no for me by the way but thanks for stopping by look
07:46you obviously know that vivian eckhart's running on a post and still monte dropped out of the race
07:50yeah but that was a month ago why come to me now candidly we've been having a hard time finding
07:54someone to take up his mantle so i'm your last choice hardly
08:02look mr evers i wish there was time for us to do our usual dance of seduction and ego stroking but as
08:08you rightly pointed out we're up against it the deadline to enter this race is in three days and
08:12vivian becoming da is worst case scenario for the people of the city i mean she has the most
08:16regressive record in your office oh i agree but there's zero chance of me beating her i was
08:20temporarily disbarred because of your dealings with elijah stone we know yeah and we are prepared to
08:25embrace that i mean you're a hero who put his life and career on the line to take down a very dangerous
08:30kingpin voters love a man who's willing to stand up for what's right not to mention you're married to a
08:35cop which automatically makes you a more attractive candidate to anyone worried that progressive
08:39means soft on crime look i don't want vivian to win any more than you do but but nothing a vivian
08:46victory will hurt a lot of people and right now you're our last hope at stopping her it may be a
08:51long shot but isn't it worth the risk i thought you didn't have time to stroke my ego
09:00you have to let me see i i don't actually on tv the family has to identify the body yeah we don't
09:06do that anymore that's right ma'am it's no longer policy but trust me it's for the best seeing your
09:13loved one like that it it changes how you remember them forever i don't understand fred was a saint
09:21why would someone want to kill him well that's what we're trying to figure out he's really dead
09:26yes ma'am i'm afraid so and we are so sorry for your loss okay thank you
09:38thanks for the assist grief makes people a little
09:41crazy and i don't like dealing with them when they're normal why you work with the dead i suppose
09:48uh anything jump out at you the preliminary autopsy no a run-of-the-mill gun homicide the bullet to the
09:53head killed him instantly but the shot to the body was fatal as well any signs of drug use no but
09:59the the talk screen is underway i'll let harper and lopez know the second it comes in perfect thank you
10:04very much i once had a widower insist on seeing his wife's body back when i was in sugarland
10:10ended up suing the city for mental anguish did he win no case got dismissed when he was convicted of her
10:16murder wow hey please let her go hi hi it's all it's all good she's she's fine i'm fine yeah i can
10:26see that but two minutes ago you were grieving i'm still grieving it manifests itself in unknowable ways
10:33right but you brought your boyfriend to help you identify your husband's body well i needed emotional
10:39support she's very sensitive yeah well you can emotionally support each other on the way to the
10:44station let's go oh this way this way yes okay put your hands down yes sir wow i know this looks bad
10:54understatement your husband was murdered and in less than 24 hours you were getting busy with your
11:00side piece down the hall from his body i didn't even want to be there uh i told faith it would look weird
11:07but she insisted so you were just trying to be a good boyfriend todd is a terrible boyfriend he's a
11:15lot of fun but anything that requires emotional depth okay what about fred what was he like he was
11:20always super cool anytime that i came by you're saying fred knew about the affair it wasn't an affair
11:27it was an open marriage the whole thing was fred's idea guy wanted a little bit of peace is it possible
11:35that todd wanted you all to himself listen i am twice divorced i am still paying alimony to the first i
11:43am not trying to put a ring on it there's a reason why todd is divorced todd is a good time like coney island
11:52fred on the other hand was deep and soulful and romantic like paris coney island is fun to visit but
12:07you don't move there over paris what do you think i think people are crazy but neither of them is a
12:14physical match for the shooters still doesn't rule out murder for hire oh yeah did you put wesley up to
12:20this no idea what you're talking about but if it's pissing you off i'm happy to take credit if he
12:26insists 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 sure seems like it but why no idea but i'm gonna find out oh husband
12:42you only call me husband when you're mad what did i do you tell me vivian just stopped by
12:46she told you i was running for da wait you're running for da since when no wait it got sprung
12:53on me this morning what does that mean some people came to talk to me about taking over sean's campaign
12:57and you told them no i did initially but but now you're thinking about it i mean i'd at least like
13:05to discuss it but i am supposed to be on my way to court right now only lucy texted to tell me that our
13:10key piece of evidence is missing so is there any chance that we can just table this until tonight fine but
13:15only because yelling at you in the bullpen might come across as unprofessional thank you i love you
13:25everything okay are you free for dinner tonight depends can i bring james as long as you tell him
13:29he has to be team lopez on the penalty of death uh we'll be sure to prep him i remember lucy gave me
13:38the machete and i logged it like i always do okay so that right there is the problem smitty the system
13:44changed most of the world uses day month year month day year was causing all of these issues for us with
13:49our international cases which is why we switched you know didn't you read the memo sorry wait i just
13:56heard that out loud of course you didn't important memos are always covered in the roll call why do i have
14:02a panicked ada knocking on my door to ask for my help to find a missing machete because smitty wasn't
14:08listening when you went over the change in how we filed case numbers what the day month year thing
14:13yeah i didn't go over it my last day his watch commander was crazy i left it for you to do i thought
14:18you handled it oh it's not my fault it's yours everyone got the memo it's still your fault smitty well
14:23it's still on him for trusting me i didn't trust you i thought he covered it and i just didn't follow up i
14:28can't believe i dropped the ball i don't care whose fault it is i need the machete smitty used
14:33the old system right try zero one twenty twenty twenty six i i can't it's a drop down menu there's
14:40no 20th month what so you can enter the 20th month but you can't retrieve the 20th month correct
14:44no that's wrong it shouldn't work that way but that is how it works wesley says the judge is losing
14:51his patience if you can't produce the evidence he's prepared to dismiss the case guys this is bigger
14:55than one case everything smitty logged has been misfiled going back two months
15:01did the widow shed some light uh not exactly but her doorbell cam did this is from two days ago the
15:06car is registered to a rider frost known member of the southern front well that tattoo is a match
15:12definitely could be our shooter any idea who the other fella is not yet but his tats are 54 street gang
15:17besides the racial element don't sf and the five four compete for the same meth business they did up until
15:22a few months ago when the armenians pushed southern front further into the valley but they are
15:27certainly not allies they case the garage but not the house any idea what they were looking for
15:32we've got a last known for writer we're hoping you go ask him
15:36wait
15:50control and pursuit of suspect during royal lake apartments some backup
16:06come on come on
16:26stop
16:26Come on, Ryder. There's nowhere to go.
16:31Put your hands on your head.
16:33Down on your knees.
16:38Wait, wait, wait! Stop! Stop! Stop!
16:40Come on!
16:56I'm sorry, are these cases from the future?
17:01Apparently the system didn't know what to do with month 20,
17:03and so it just made the math work,
17:05and 12 months plus 8 is August 2027.
17:07Cases from 21st become September of next year, and so on.
17:10This is unbelievable.
17:11The judge granted a continuance,
17:13but we need the machete by noon tomorrow.
17:15Yep, don't worry. We will have it.
17:17I'll stick around. I feel responsible.
17:18No, it's completely on me.
17:19I don't should have clarified.
17:20You are on your way out.
17:21Okay, you guys are both Spartacus, okay?
17:23Let'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!
17:40You'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,
17:47but anything I can say to convince you?
17:52Can I ask why?
17:54I'm not a doctor or a scientist.
17:56I don't have a PhD.
17:57Why are you asking me?
17:59Maybe you've been around long enough to know that having a few extra letters after your name
18:03doesn'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 every conceivable angle.
18:08Twice.
18:09Before bringing me a solution.
18:11What if I can't find a solution?
18:13Hell, girl, that'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 identical 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, take a few days to think about it.
18:31Talk it over with your man and call me.
18:33I will.
18:37You know, Noon, if you don't want the job because it's not the right fit or the right time, that's fine. I get it.
18:42But deciding that you're not good enough before somebody else can, that's the coward's way.
18:49I know you're not a coward.
18:51No, sir.
18:52I'm not.
18:58Giddy up.
19:06Yeah.
19:07All right.
19:08Okay, thanks for the update.
19:10Suspect in the Central Station Market shooting fell to his death.
19:13That's awful.
19:14That guy thought he was an action hero trying to leap between two buildings.
19:17Any leads on the second shooter?
19:18No, but the brass has been blown on my phone.
19:20You know, a guy falls to his death in a police pursuit, everyone's got questions.
19:25Captain.
19:26Always a pleasure.
19:29I do not miss that.
19:30I don't think I've seen him sleep more than four consecutive hours since he took this job.
19:33I 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, the optics weren't great for him.
19:44Do you think he should be worried?
19:46I think that watch commander is a thankless 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.
20:01Right, I didn't think of it that way.
20:03Because I made it look easy.
20:06You'll get the hang of it.
20:11The machete!
20:12Yes!
20:13I gotta call Wesley.
20:14I'll wait a minute on that.
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.
20:36Hey, did you know the Armenians pushed the southern front's mess 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.
20:47Yeah, see those reports only get you so far.
20:49I 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.
20:57Well, how can I compete with that when I just got here?
21:00It takes time to cultivate that kind of trust.
21:02True, but I mean, you'd be shocked by what some of these low-level game makers put on social media.
21:07The Ellie 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.
21:20Well, all right. Let's go, coach. I'm ready.
21:24Hey, good to see ya.
21:25You too.
21:26How you doing?
21:27Thought we might need this.
21:28Ooh. Very thoughtful.
21:30Hi.
21:31What do you guys think? Should 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.
21:38Everyone clear on the plan?
21:40Oh, yes, yes. James Snow's agreed with everything you say and 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 being too scared to testify.
21:56Instituting a policy that would protect them from deportation, that would be a game-changer.
22:01I thought we 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, but I think we're getting away from the larger point, which is we'd be opening our lives up to public scrutiny, which 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 that their father is willing to fight for the rights of everybody, even when it's difficult.
22:27Amen.
22:28What? You started it.
22:31Think of what I'd be in the position to influence as the DA.
22:34I could end cash bail, expand 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?
22:45Yeah, well, we would probably have to wait on that. I mean, optics would...
22:49And you'd be fine letting public perception dictate how we live our lives?
22:53In service of real reform?
22:57Maybe.
22:58Real change requires sacrifice.
23:01But I would not do it at the expense of our family. I would need to know that you were on board.
23:05One hundred percent.
23:09Hello.
23:11Oh.
23:12Something smells good.
23:14Because I cooked.
23:16More than cooked. Candles?
23:18Should I be worried?
23:19No, not at all.
23:20I just know you had a really hard day and I wanted to do something nice for you.
23:24Oh.
23:25Yeah.
23:26Uh-huh.
23:27And, uh, what do you really want in exchange for this totally no-strings-attached feast?
23:33A conversation.
23:36About DC.
23:37I didn't know we needed to have one.
23:39I know.
23:40And that is my fault.
23:41But 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 and it made me question
23:53why I was so quick to shut it down.
23:56Well.
23:57And before you tell me no or give me one hundred reasons why it won't work, all 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?
24:16We abort the mission.
24:17Either we're both in or we're both out.
24:20We need both keys to launch the torpedoes.
24:22Yes.
24:23What do you think?
24:25I think I want you to be happy and if this is something you want then I will do everything I can from my end to see if it's feasible.
24:40We're in this together.
24:48Is 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 an accident.
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.
25:05Look, I swear if I lose watch command 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.
25:18You gotta be kidding me.
25:19Hmm?
25:20Oh my God.
25:21This is it!
25:22This is it!
25:23Thank God.
25:24All right, let's go home.
25:25Okay.
25:26Woo!
25:27Wait, where are you?
25:28A yurt in Finland.
25:29The Northern Lights have been amazing the last few nights.
25:31Jealous.
25:32I know, I wish you were here to see them with me.
25:33Me too.
25:34I miss you.
25:35Hey, Selena.
25:36I might have found something.
25:37So Ryder...
25:38Is that Miles?
25:39Hey, Miles.
25:40Hey, man.
25:41How's the Great White North?
25:42He saw the Aurora.
25:43Oh, cool.
25:44Who's Ryder?
25:45Suspecting a murder.
25:46Well, that sounds important.
25:47Do you need to go?
25:48No.
25:49Just give me one second.
25:50What's up?
25:51Oh, my God.
25:52Oh, my God.
25:53Oh, my God.
25:54Oh, my God.
25:55Oh, my God.
25:56Oh, my God.
25:57Oh, my God.
25:58Oh, my God.
25:59Oh, my God.
26:00Oh, my God.
26:01One second.
26:02What's up?
26:03Okay, so I was looking through Ryder's Juby 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.
26:23Babe, I'm sorry.
26:24I gotta go.
26:25No worries.
26:26Have fun solving your murder.
26:28We will.
26:29See you.
26:32This is Mabel Sinclair.
26:33Most 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
26:40them up.
26:41Well, last week, Mabel was the 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?
27:04Oh, Mabel was his foster mother.
27:09That's the second shooter.
27:11That is Kingston Holmes, 22, proud member of the 5-4 and former foster brother to Ryder Frost.
27:17So 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
27:33me it was a hit and run.
27:35Unfortunately, the man suspected of hitting you with his car was murdered.
27:38We have reason to believe your former foster sons, Ryder Frost and Kingston Holmes, want
27:44revenge 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.
27:57We're very sorry, but I'm afraid that's not all.
28:01Ryder died yesterday trying to jump between rooftops.
28:04They were just hurt little boys underneath it all, you know?
28:09When Ryder first came to us, he was so shut down.
28:16He 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.
28:47What happened?
28:48Ryder'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.
28:59He started to act out, getting in trouble.
29:05And he was finally put away on some trumped up vandalism charge.
29:13And then he joined the gang in prison.
29:20And suddenly the two boys I saw become brothers were turned into mortal enemies by the streets.
29:31I'm sorry for how much pain this has caused you, but we like to bring Kingston in without any more bloodshed.
29:37Do 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 on a few.
29:50Great. What you were saying yesterday about D.C. and needing to unclench, it can't be that bad, right?
29:58All right, maybe I've just been spoiled by L.A.
30:02I'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.
30:17You get two weeks of cherry blossoms a year, and that's about it.
30:22Also, speaking as someone who thought transferring to another department would be easy, be prepared to relearn everything you thought you knew.
30:31Yeah, all right, we gotta go.
30:46Mama?
30:47It's me, baby.
30:48Thank 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.
30:57I wish I could come see you.
30:59Well, me too.
31:00You heard about Ryder?
31:05You know, me and Ryder don't really mess with each other anymore.
31:10He's dead, baby.
31:11Killed. Running away from what you boys did.
31:16I don't know what you're talking about.
31:18Kingston, please. You never were a good liar.
31:24You need to turn yourself in.
31:28I can't.
31:29You know what happened the last time I went inside?
31:31I had to join the 5-4 just to make it out alive.
31:33Well, what other choice do you have?
31:35Just don't worry about me, Mama, 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?
31:45You 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.
32:19...
32:25David Sinclair
32:33Yo! What's up, K?
32:35He got you working the door already, huh?
32:38Damn, no's trying to come up.
32:405-4 for life.
32:425-4 for life.
32:56Yo, P-Mac.
32:58Uh, can we talk?
33:00For sure! Come here.
33:02Hey, what up? You good?
33:04Uh...
33:06Talk to me.
33:08Uh...
33:12I-I gotta... I gotta get out of town.
33:14You sure you got that hookup with the cartel tunnels into Mexico?
33:18For sure. But why?
33:20What happened?
33:22Unless you know the better. Just trust me on that.
33:24When you say trust me, I trust you, okay?
33:26I'll make a few phone calls.
33:28Look, relax.
33:30Have a drink.
33:32You know we got you.
33:38What?
33:40What?
33:42I truly didn't believe you'd be stupid enough to bring your dumb ass back around here.
33:44After all the disrespect showing us.
33:46Yeah, you hidden civilians.
33:48You working with Nazis.
33:50Trace on Kingston's phone landed at 4700 Hilldale.
33:52Copy that.
33:54Pull over up here.
33:56But the address is on the next block.

34:38This the moment you prove how much you love the streets
34:40by taking care of a traitor-ass bitch that's disrespecting her.
34:43This the moment you prove to me you a good soldier.
34:46And you follow orders.
34:48All right, and in return, the streets gonna love you back.
34:51And wherever you go, the five-fold follow.
34:55For life.

35:07Oh.
35:16We ain't got all day.
35:25So watch 10 minutes out. You got eyes on Kingston?
35:27Yeah.
35:28Yeah, but we're looking at a potential murder in progress.
35:31We can't wait.

36:12Go!
36:21Stay down! Stay down!
36:22Wait!
36:35Wait!
36:35Please please please please please you can you can just say that you didn't see me
37:05you can say that you didn't see me trade please please get on your stomach go drop the good
37:35kids process ah thank you for that um look I realized this was a bit of a tough one you
37:42all right I'll be all right I know I shouldn't feel sympathy but he's just a boy look no one
37:51is saying you can't feel sympathy but at the end of the day he did make the choice to pull that
37:55trigger why don't you go home I'll take care of the paperwork yes sir thank you you bet
38:03it amazes me how one man can wreak such havoc on the entire LAPD Smitty is a force of nature
38:16I got a minute yeah sure what's up well Bailey has been offered a pretty impressive job in DC
38:23Pentagon think tank and I was just wondering what a transfer to the DCPD would be like yeah I can
38:31get you in touch with a few people but you do know you would have to start at the very bottom again
38:36including redoing the academy I've done it before you were also five years younger yes you would
38:44get a pretty hefty signing bonus that's a perk but your annual salary would be much less than you make
38:50in LA plus the cost of living in DC is just as expensive so in the long run your bonus really
38:56won't make a difference especially if Bailey's only making the government salary right I'm sorry
39:02if this is not the answer you were looking for no no that's um I was just looking for the truth
39:08yeah well good luck thank you
39:12hey
39:15the LAPD wouldn't be sad to see you go thank you sir
39:22guess what
39:30what we won that's great judge give you any grief about the evidence I think he was too confused by
39:38the explanation to challenge it take the win mm-hmm I prepared a 10 minute lecture for tomorrow's
39:44roll call to make sure no one can ever again use ignorance as an excuse when mislabeling case numbers
39:49you know you're a really good watch commander I'm figuring it out no listen no matter what kind
39:55of craziness is going on at the station you're always the center of calm and the rest of us need
40:00that I need that thank you mm-hmm tell you what list of things we can't trust smitty with is getting longer
40:07do you think he's doing it on purpose weaponized incompetence yeah I don't think he's that strategic
40:12hey sorry I missed dinner
40:24hey bedtime
40:27you should run for DA
40:31are you sure because if you're not in 100% I'm in the more I thought about it the more I realized this
40:38was exactly why you joined the DA's office in the first place
40:43and I'm proud you want to set that example for our children especially because every day I see
40:47firsthand the people our system has failed and inevitably the ones who suffer the most are other
40:54kids you sure you're okay waiting on a new house no but like you said real change requires sacrifice
41:04and I love this house
41:09we brought home two babies here
41:14we also made two babies here
41:15so we did
41:22no food to entice me with I see no but I have wine
41:27listen I don't want to beat around the bush I did my due diligence and I am sorry honey
41:36I don't think I can do DC it would mean starting all over again as a rookie only this time instead of
41:44being 45 I'd be 50. oh
41:51what if
41:54I'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 and I meant it when I said it
42:07but now
42:07you still want it
42:13so where does that leave us
42:20you
42:21you
42:26you
42:30so
42:34you
42:38you
