00:00Previously on The Rookie.
00:01Remember the criminal Garza flew back from Vegas?
00:04Everett, right?
00:05As we've been digging deeper into his criminal operation,
00:07an unexplained connection inside the Pentagon.
00:11Hey, counselor.
00:12Harrison Novak.
00:13Hunting by victims, that just fills me up.
00:17It seems clear that we have a second serial killer at large.
00:20I think Glasser is my guy.
00:21They're in my head.
00:22Ryan Dearborn's misfortune is Liam Glasser's blessing.
00:25If you're implying I had something to do with this.
00:33He said I do know his name.
00:35His name was Martin.
00:43Don't worry.
00:44I'm up.
00:46You're looking pretty horizontal to me.
00:53Yeah.
00:55Hey.
00:57There is no shame if you're not ready.
01:00All right?
01:01And what you experienced was deeply traumatic.
01:04And it doesn't just disappear in a few weeks.
01:07It just would be easier to process if he was a violent criminal.
01:12You know, but he's not.
01:14He's a victim, too.
01:16I hear you.
01:17But listen.
01:19It doesn't matter.
01:21Okay?
01:21And this is going to sound cold-blooded, but in the moment, Martin Carpio was a homicidal maniac about to
01:28drive a linoleum knife through your chest.
01:31If you hadn't acted, I was going to spend the last couple of weeks picking out a coffin and putting
01:40your body on the ground.
01:42And I know this is complicated for you, but for me, it is very simple.
01:46You're alive because you did what you had to do to stay that way.
01:55Okay.
01:56I need a shower and a coffee.
01:59I'm on it.
02:01Of course.
02:02Look, you're not going to have to worry about me.
02:04Okay?
02:05I will pull my weight.
02:07Yeah, if you can, you will.
02:08But what I need most from you right now is the truth.
02:11All right, do not push yourself to failure.
02:14Because that failure can get other cops killed.
02:17Understood.
02:28I'm afraid I have some bad news.
02:32Given the severity of the challenges to prosecuting Liam Glazer, the DA has instructed me to offer a plea deal.
02:40Involuntary manslaughter for the death of Grant Nagalas.
02:42What?
02:43One charge for a serial killer?
02:46And how is manslaughter even on the table?
02:50The dearth, the physical evidence, the tainted police investigation, the lack of eyewitnesses, the false confession and subsequent mental breakdown
02:57of Ryan Dearborn.
02:58The fact that Glazer piggybacked his burial site with another killer's bodies.
03:02Okay, but Harrison Novak is clear that he didn't kill Glazer's victims.
03:07And Dearborn was drugged into a mental health crisis.
03:09Ryan had drugs in his system, which Glazer's lawyer will argue he took himself, even though I think Glazer's lawyer
03:14is the one who did the drugging.
03:16But we have zero evidence that Malcolm Walsh did anything, right?
03:21Unfortunately.
03:23Selina and I went over the CCTV footage and spoke to the staff at Ryan's halfway house.
03:27There's no proof that anyone tampered with Ryan's meds.
03:31But what about that guy we found handcuffed in Glazer's shower, stuck full of needles?
03:36I know it's not murder, but we've got to be able to convict him for that.
03:39And for attacking Nolan in the basement.
03:41Glazer claims that Phil Warren was an unhoused person who broke in and took shelter from the fires.
03:46And that he thought that we were looters, not cops, so he was defending himself.
03:52Bottom line, it's all a mess.
03:55Look, I'm sorry.
03:56We did our best.
03:58At least with the plea deal, Glazer will be off the streets for a decade while we continue to gather
04:02evidence to charge him for his other crimes.
04:08Hey, how's Lucy?
04:09Better than she was.
04:10Not as bad as she thinks.
04:11You gave her that tough love speech.
04:13Almost word for word from the one you gave me.
04:18How are things with Luna?
04:21Well, I'm still living in a hotel.
04:24Luna says she wants to talk, but I say if she won't quit her job, we have nothing to talk
04:28about.
04:28Rinse and repeat.
04:29So no one's filed the paperwork yet?
04:31No.
04:33Man, Tim, I don't want to get divorced.
04:35But we're both too stubborn to give an inch.
04:38Anyway, you ever run with anyone sporting an ego in Nemecos tattoo?
04:44The night strike guys?
04:46No, they're always wound way too tight.
04:47What if I told you Bailey saw their tattoo on a woman at the Pentagon?
04:50It's connected to the Everett case?
04:52Yeah.
04:53So we don't know how he's involved, but a war criminal with ties to the Pentagon is all kinds of
04:57bad.
04:58There's never been a female operator in that spec ops team.
05:01I mean, she could be intelligence.
05:02You know, some case officers feel an unhealthy connection to their kill squads.
05:07Go ahead.
05:09Bravo.
05:12Understood.
05:15What's wrong?
05:17Harrison Novak is coming in to, quote, unburden himself of additional crimes he committed, unquote.
05:24Good morning.
05:25Hey, I had a wonderful moment of clarity over the weekend.
05:29Yeah, sure.
05:30I don't get mad at a bug that splatters in my windshield, so why would I get so worked up
05:36over you?
05:36I'm not taking the bait, Vivian, so you can just get to the point.
05:39I heard about the Glasser plea deal.
05:42It's a rough break.
05:44You know, I think the important thing is that he'll be off the streets.
05:48He's going to do some time.
05:49Mm-hmm.
05:49It's not really worthy of a press release, though, is it?
05:52Serial killer does some time over heinous murders.
05:57On a happier note, I'm heading over to Mid-Wilshire.
06:01Yeah, Harrison Novak is coming in to confess to more crimes after pleading guilty to all the ones I charged
06:07him with.
06:08If only you'd caught his case rather than Liam Glasser, you might actually have a shot at winning the DA
06:13race.
06:14Well, thank you for the heads up.
06:18Have a nice day.
06:19You too.
06:26Hey.
06:27Why didn't you tell me that Harrison Novak was coming in to confess to more crimes?
06:30I didn't know.
06:32Novak's coming in.
06:34He's an attention whore.
06:35He probably just wants to stretch his legs and get a catered lunch.
06:38Yeah, maybe.
06:40Will you keep me posted?
06:41I, uh, I just got a bad feeling about it.
06:43I will, but I'm sure it's nothing.
06:47Okay.
06:48Okay.
06:50Hey.
07:01Hey.
07:01I'm supposed to talk to you about something.
07:04Bradford said it was important.
07:06Um, important that I talk to you.
07:07Oh, wait.
07:09I'm not supposed to ask you about what you did on penalty of.
07:12Smitty.
07:13My office.
07:14Now.
07:16I didn't actually ask her about that, you know.
07:23Did you tell everybody to avoid me?
07:26I mean, I might have encouraged a few people to give you your space.
07:30Well, don't yell at Smitty.
07:32He obviously just forgot.
07:33I'm not.
07:34He's getting a temporary promotion to interim watch commander while I go on patrol with you.
07:38Tim, I don't want special treatment.
07:40You're not getting it.
07:41Look, all Smitty has to do is smile and nod in a few Zoom meetings.
07:44I already disabled the laptop mic.
07:46I'm telling you, as watch commander, I would do this for any of my returning patrol officers.
07:49I promise.
07:51All right, fine.
07:52But I want to choose where we're having lunch.
07:55No.
07:56Hello.
07:59Do you think Lucy's okay?
08:02She seemed all right in roll call.
08:04You know, everyone handles taking a life in the line differently, and there's no way of knowing how it's going
08:10to affect you until it happens.
08:13I want to check in with her, you know, but I'm worried I'll make things awkward.
08:17And you know she's not supposed to talk to us about that.
08:19I know.
08:20Because if, God forbid, this goes to trial, we'll be asked to testify about her mental state.
08:25It's just weird, you know, that I can't ask my girl how she's doing.
08:34John Nolan.
08:35I'm worried about Bailey, John.
08:37Who is this?
08:39You should recognize my voice, John.
08:41Zuzu.
08:42Why are you worried about my wife?
08:44There's been an uptick in searches for her name.
08:47Information requests plugged into government systems.
08:51Listening devices on her phone.
08:53How do you know that?
08:53Because I'm listening as well.
08:56She's not safe, John.
08:57But you need to be careful about how you warn her.
08:59Or you could make it worse.
09:03Wait, what's going on?
09:04I don't know.
09:057 and 15 possible 1066 reported at the Hollywood Premier Motel.
09:107 and 15 copies.
09:11Shorts en route.
09:27Hey.
09:29Couldn't you have parked on the street?
09:31I don't need everybody in Hollywood knowing you're here.
09:34We're here on the daily.
09:35Earl, you need one of those signs that say
09:38days since police last visited
09:39so we can keep marking it back to zero.
09:42That way everybody's a comedian, huh?
09:44Hey, so where's the body?
09:45This way.
09:48So, uh,
09:51one of our guests,
09:52uh,
09:54he checked out a little early
09:56and, uh,
09:57I-I-I covered him with the towel.
09:59You know you're not supposed to tamper
10:00with a potential crime scene, Earl.
10:02We're a, uh, family establishment.
10:05Manson family, maybe.
10:07Oh.
10:08When did you find him?
10:1020 minutes ago.
10:11He was here when I clocked in at 5 a.m.
10:16I thought he was asleep.
10:18With two ice picks in his head?
10:20Yeah, I didn't, uh,
10:21really look that close.
10:23And I suppose you still don't have
10:25any working security cameras?
10:26These haven't been repaired
10:27since the last time they were vandalized.
10:30Control, we got a 187.
10:31The victim is male in his 40s.
10:33We send the M-E-T-I-D
10:35and send a supervisor to my location.
10:38Control 7, Adam 100, responding.
10:41You sure you want your first call
10:42to be a dead body?
10:43We can start with something easier.
10:46All right, are you kidding?
10:47This is right out of the
10:48Tim Bradford School of Trauma Recovery.
10:49You gotta get right back on that horse.
10:51If you get punched in the mouth,
10:52you should be...
10:52Hey!
10:53What?
10:54Oh, get out of there!
10:55You know he can't hear you, right?
10:57Wait, is that...
10:58Is that the Fernando Valenzuela baseball?
11:00Put that down!
11:02That's me.
11:10Watch Commander's Office.
11:11Put that ball away
11:12or I'm coming back there
11:13and shoving it down your throat.
11:17There are some very interesting events
11:20taking place in the world.
11:23We are here.
11:27We are still.
11:31We are deep.
11:34They take our hand and they nail
11:53looking fine, ladies.
11:57There he is.
11:59The next district attorney
12:01of Los Angeles.
12:05Though I hear my case
12:08is hurting you in the polls.
12:11These are on, right?
12:14Good.
12:15Gonna need to get the footage
12:18for the Hulu doc we're filming.
12:20You're not serious.
12:21I am.
12:24Involuntary manslaughter
12:25with a chance of parole
12:26after 15 years.
12:28You could be out
12:29in time to see your son
12:30graduate from college.
12:31College is overrated.
12:34I never went
12:35and look how I turned out.
12:38I have a confession to make.
12:42You see, last year
12:43when I took you
12:44to my little burial site,
12:47I lied to you.
12:50See, I told you
12:51that some of the bodies
12:53you dug up weren't mine.
12:55And that...
12:58that wasn't true.
12:59If I take the deal,
13:02isn't that the same
13:03as pleading guilty?
13:04Yes.
13:07Then how can I,
13:08in good conscience,
13:10confess to something
13:11that I didn't do?
13:14Everybody
13:15in that field
13:17was put there by me.
13:21Liam Glasser
13:22had nothing to do
13:22with any of those murders.
13:37Okay, this guy got a name?
13:39Several.
13:40TID is getting started
13:41on his room, 212.
13:43So far we have IDs
13:44for Jack Dawes,
13:46Patrick Sullivan,
13:47Roger Newman,
13:47and Ken Marigold.
13:48Let's go knock on some doors.
13:50Maybe somebody saw something.
13:52Can I grab you a second
13:53before we get started?
13:54Yeah, sure.
13:55I need to call Bailey
13:56at the Pentagon,
13:58but I can't call her phones.
14:00Is there something
14:01I should know?
14:01I don't know.
14:02Might be nothing.
14:03Hopefully it's nothing.
14:04All right, I'll make a call.
14:05I got a few people
14:06in the building
14:06that can get her a clean phone.
14:08Yeah.
14:14Hi, sir.
14:15I'm Officer Juarez
14:16with LAPD.
14:18There was a murder
14:19this morning
14:19and I was wondering
14:20whether you...
14:24First name
14:24kissed my last name ass.
14:26Is there a hyphen
14:28in there somewhere?
14:30Did you notice
14:31anything suspicious?
14:34Look, we're not here
14:35for your pet,
14:36Mr. Jaffe.
14:36Although I'm pretty sure
14:37that tank is better than that.
14:38Did you talk to the man
14:39in 212?
14:42Ma'am,
14:43it may be allowed
14:44with smoking
14:44while using an oxygen tank
14:46as a fire hazard.
14:50Officer John Nolan.
14:51Randy?
14:52What are you doing here?
14:53I'm on the trail
14:53of a devious con man.
14:55I've been watching him
14:56every second of every hour
14:57or every day for weeks.
14:58The man in 212
14:59will not escape my grasp.
15:02Man in 212 is dead.
15:04Verdummed.
15:05Hey,
15:05this is a disaster.
15:07I know,
15:07it sounds bad,
15:08but I think
15:09we can turn it around.
15:10How?
15:11Harrison Novak
15:11just confessed
15:12to Liam Glazer's murders.
15:13The timing
15:13cannot be a coincidence.
15:15I mean,
15:16Glazer basically
15:17laughed on my face
15:18when I made the plea offer.
15:19It's like he knew
15:19that Novak's confession
15:20was coming.
15:21We'll figure out
15:21the connection later.
15:23For now,
15:24let's you and me
15:24blow a few giant holes
15:25in Novak's
15:26fake confession
15:27and send him back
15:28to prison
15:28with his tail
15:29between his legs.
15:32We got this.
15:40Turn this on
15:42and call your husband.
15:46I'm confused.
15:47Who is your client?
15:48Frau Linda Chandler.
15:50The con man in 212
15:51stole her retirement savings
15:53in a Heim-Turkish scheme.
15:54He told her she was investing
15:55in a Florida condominium,
15:57but it was Zümflant.
15:58Now she has nothing
15:59but the clothes
15:59on her back.
16:00Well, we found
16:01at least five IDs.
16:02Odds are he's running
16:04all sorts of scams
16:05all over the country
16:06with different victims.
16:06It's going to take
16:07a while to unwind this.
16:08Yeah.
16:08No need.
16:09I've located
16:10a bread trail
16:12that led me
16:12to what the rappers
16:13call his government name,
16:14Charles Deacon.
16:16That's good work.
16:17Okay, we're going to need
16:18to speak with your client.
16:19Oh, yes.
16:20I'll air bop you her contact.
16:21Uh, I'm sorry.
16:22I have to take this.
16:24Okay.
16:27Hello?
16:27Why did a stranger
16:29hand me an audio jammer
16:30and a burner phone
16:31and tell me to call you?
16:32I have been told
16:33that you are in danger.
16:35Told by who?
16:37Zuzu.
16:38The homicidal AI?
16:40Since when have you
16:40become besties
16:41with that thing?
16:42I-I'm not.
16:43It's complicated,
16:45but it-it called
16:48to warn me
16:48that someone has been
16:49doing a deep background
16:50check on you.
16:52That your phones,
16:53your apartment,
16:54your office,
16:54they're all most likely bucked.
16:55And it could just be
16:58Zuzu playing games.
16:59Well, on the other hand,
17:00I had a fairly strong feeling
17:02I was being followed
17:03last night.
17:04And you didn't call me?
17:05I wasn't sure.
17:06Things have just felt
17:07a little off
17:08ever since Wade asked me
17:09to knock on a door.
17:10What door?
17:11It was a task force thing,
17:12something ever-related.
17:14And I am gonna kill Gray.
17:15Why don't you try
17:16looping him in first
17:17and I'll act normally.
17:19Bailey.
17:19It's fine.
17:20Nothing's gonna happen
17:21to me in the building.
17:22Hi.
17:23How many doors left?
17:24Uh, three.
17:25Okay.
17:26Well, if they've got a warrant,
17:27they're probably gonna lie low
17:29until we're out of here.
17:29Right.
17:31Look, I know I'm not
17:32supposed to ask how you are,
17:33but if you need me
17:35for anything, I'm...
17:36I'm good.
17:37Yeah, thank you.
17:40Excuse me, sir.
17:41Hey!
17:42Police!
17:43I gotta go.
17:44Sir!
17:44Hey!
17:49Copyright waters.
17:50Yeah.
17:51Hey, Randy.
17:53Randy, you okay?
17:53Yeah, but my bell
17:55is really ringing.
17:57What the hell happened
17:57to his accent?
17:58What are you talking about?
18:01Schnitzel.
18:02Strudel.
18:03Schwarzenegger.
18:04What is happening to me,
18:05John Nolan?
18:06I sound so flat,
18:08so bland,
18:09so...
18:10American.
18:16I wanted to keep
18:17my ammo unpredictable,
18:18so I killed men
18:20and women.
18:21I just
18:23buried the dudes
18:24in a different area.
18:26Didn't want them
18:28mingling.
18:29All the men were strangled,
18:31but the women were bludgeoned.
18:33I'd like to mix it up.
18:34What about the needles?
18:35You want us to believe
18:36that you only injected the men
18:38with foreign substances
18:39and not the women?
18:40Oh, well,
18:41the men were there
18:42for a very different purpose.
18:45They were there
18:46to be tortured physically,
18:47whereas with the women,
18:48it was much more...
18:52psychological.
18:53Okay, so let's go
18:55case by case.
18:56As we said before,
18:57all the men were strangled.
18:58Is that right?
18:59Yes.
18:59Wait.
19:01No.
19:04This dude,
19:06I want to say
19:06his name was...
19:09Conrad?
19:11Conrad almost
19:12got away from me.
19:14So I had to
19:16kill him with a hatchet
19:17I kept in my car.
19:20That information
19:21was never released,
19:22not even to the family.
19:24I can see that
19:25you want more specifics.
19:27Okay?
19:31Victim number one,
19:33Gran Nogales.
19:34Only one that I actually
19:35knew personally
19:36I would see him
19:37when I was a patient
19:37at Westview,
19:38restocking the snack machine
19:39when Glasser
19:40had a day off.
19:42Second was just
19:43some homeless guy
19:45abducted out of an encampment
19:46on Sepulveda.
19:47Oh, there he is.
19:48Poor JJ.
19:51Now this one...
19:56is not mine.
19:58Nice try.
20:00You get this.
20:02Stock furrows.
20:05Victim number three.
20:07I picked him up
20:09by the side of the road
20:10in Carpinteria.
20:11Fun fact,
20:13strangled him
20:14with his own belt
20:15then buried him
20:16with it.
20:17I have a feeling
20:19that little detail
20:20didn't make the papers.
20:28My best guess
20:30is foreign accent syndrome.
20:31How do I fix it?
20:33And why is he now southern?
20:35It could be his brain's way
20:37of working its way
20:37back to normal.
20:39Your CT scan was clean
20:40so there's really no
20:41immediate medical treatment
20:42I can offer.
20:42But will he get better?
20:44Probably,
20:44but not a certainty.
20:45Right now,
20:46you just have to learn
20:47to live with it.
20:48I gotta go.
20:48Excuse me.
20:51Well, Randy,
20:52I know even for you
20:53this is a little weird.
20:56I'm lost,
20:57John Nolan.
20:58Without my accent,
20:59I'm just another
20:59generic,
21:00handsome
21:01beefcake in Los Angeles.
21:05Nolan,
21:05go to channel 11.
21:07Go for Nolan?
21:08You still with Randy?
21:09Guten tag.
21:10Listen,
21:10the contact details
21:11you gave us
21:12for the woman
21:12who hired you
21:13are a literal dead end.
21:14She died of a stroke
21:15two years ago.
21:16Did you think
21:17I was hired by a ghost?
21:18Over?
21:18No.
21:19Let me get this straight.
21:21Randy was hired
21:22to find a con man
21:23using dozens of aliases
21:25by a woman
21:25who was using an alias?
21:27Correct.
21:28Okay,
21:29just wanted to
21:29say it out loud.
21:31Randy,
21:31you didn't verify
21:32her identity
21:32when she hired you?
21:33No,
21:33you silly goose.
21:34My clients
21:34don't hire me
21:35to background check.
21:36Bam.
21:37Right.
21:38I'm gonna take Randy
21:39back to the station
21:40and have him work
21:41with a composite artist.
21:42I'll call you
21:42if we find anything useful.
21:43I wanna hold my breath.
21:46How's he doing?
21:47Same.
21:48Still in the Zoom meeting.
21:51I don't know about that.
21:52What do you mean?
21:53Well,
21:53has he moved at all?
21:56It's frozen.
21:58Or it's a photo
21:59he propped up
22:00on the camera.
22:01No.
22:02Yeah.
22:09Why put so much effort
22:10into being lazy?
22:11Wouldn't it be easier
22:12to just do the job?
22:13It's his passion.
22:15What the hell
22:16have you got my wife into?
22:17I don't know
22:18what you're talking about.
22:18You had her knock
22:19on a door,
22:20now she's being surveilled.
22:21How do you know that?
22:22That's a story
22:23for another time.
22:24More importantly,
22:25what are you and Garza
22:26gonna do
22:26to ensure her safety?
22:27Everything.
22:28I'll call Garza
22:29right now
22:30and come up
22:30with a plan.
22:31Okay,
22:31but he's gonna see
22:32this as an opportunity
22:33to stalk the stalkers.
22:34I am telling you
22:36her safety
22:37is more important
22:37than any investigation
22:38you got her wrapped up in.
22:39I hear you.
22:40I'll make this right.
22:42I'm sorry.
22:43We never intended
22:43to put her in danger.
22:45Harrison Novak
22:46has seen Blasher's file.
22:47That is the only way
22:48that he can know
22:49all of these details.
22:50I'm telling you,
22:51first Malcolm
22:51dosed Ryan Dearborn
22:52and now he's somehow
22:53convinced Novak
22:54to come in
22:55with this false confession.
22:57Malcolm Walsh
22:58was just brought up
22:58to speed
22:59on the Novak confession
23:00and he didn't
23:01rub it in my face.
23:02Because he knew
23:03it was coming in
23:03and he didn't want
23:04to overplay his hand.
23:05Any luck tying him
23:06to Novak in prison?
23:07Nothing direct,
23:08but Malcolm represents
23:09two prisoners
23:10on Novak's cell block.
23:11It would have been easy
23:12for him to communicate
23:12through one of them.
23:13As a true crime fetishist,
23:15Novak would have been
23:16following the public details
23:17of Glaser's case
23:18in the media.
23:18All Malcolm had to do
23:20was fill in the blanks.
23:21But there is
23:21one other possibility,
23:23a simpler path
23:24directly from the DA's office
23:26to Novak.
23:27Novak has been
23:28representing himself,
23:29which means he would
23:30have been dealing
23:30directly with the ADA
23:32prosecuting his case
23:33to negotiate his plea deal.
23:36Are you saying
23:37that Vivian was the one
23:38to spill the Glaser secrets?
23:41I can't,
23:42I mean,
23:43look, Vivian can be ruthless,
23:44but conspiring
23:45with a serial killer
23:46to put another killer
23:47back on the street,
23:48that's beyond
23:48her usual dirty tricks.
23:49Is it, though?
23:51She was running
23:51for DA unopposed.
23:53She had the job
23:53in the bag
23:54and then you jumped
23:55in front of her path
23:55and now she's got
23:56to get you
23:57out of the way quick.
23:58Desperate times
23:58call for desperate measures.
24:01An emergency hearing
24:02was just scheduled
24:02with Judge St. Clair
24:03to discuss the admissibility
24:05of Novak's confession.
24:05I bet a million dollars
24:07that Malcolm had
24:08that request teed up
24:09and ready to go.
24:11I'm going to lose Glaser
24:12and the DA's race.
24:14You don't know that.
24:16Judge St. Clair
24:16is a straight shooter
24:17and we're not done fighting.
24:19Yeah, you're right.
24:21I've got to swing by the office
24:22to work on my argument.
24:23Wish me luck.
24:24Good luck.
24:25I can't believe
24:26this is really happening.
24:28Glaser is on the verge
24:29of going free.
24:31Wesley will find a way
24:32to stop it.
24:34He has to.
24:42Officer Chen.
24:43Hi.
24:43I'm Joan Carpio.
24:45Martin was my brother.
24:47I'm sorry,
24:47but this conversation
24:48is not happening.
24:49You killed my brother.
24:51I want to know why.
24:53Yeah.
24:54I had no choice.
24:56Sergeant Chen,
24:56can you give us a minute,
24:57please?
24:58Please.
25:03Ma'am,
25:04you can't speak
25:05to Sergeant Chen
25:06while this investigation
25:06is ongoing.
25:08My brother is dead.
25:10I need to know
25:11why he died.
25:16Martin was a good person.
25:19He was a kind person.
25:20He was not a killer.
25:21Okay, ma'am.
25:24I'm sorry,
25:24but you're going to have
25:25to get back in your car
25:26and you're going to need
25:26to leave.
25:32Look, I am sorry
25:33that that happened.
25:34How can she not know?
25:35The families of the Westview
25:36victims were briefed
25:37on the contamination
25:38and the subsequent
25:38violent behavior,
25:39but that briefing
25:41was limited.
25:41She needs to know
25:42that I was defending myself.
25:44She never saw her brother
25:46in that altered state.
25:47She can't imagine
25:48the killer he became.
25:49Well, then show her
25:50my body cam footage.
25:51I mean, it's right there.
25:52When that footage is disclosed,
25:53it's up to the department lawyers.
25:55This was obviously
25:56very upsetting.
25:58Maybe you should consider
26:00clocking out for the day.
26:01Okay, stop.
26:02We are on the job right now.
26:03I don't need boyfriend Tim
26:05stepping in, okay?
26:06Good, because he's not here.
26:08As your watch commander,
26:09I am telling you,
26:10you can finish your shift,
26:11but you're not going
26:12back out on patrol.
26:14Okay.
26:17I've been going through
26:18the list of people
26:20our victim scammed
26:21over the last decade.
26:23It's long.
26:24How long?
26:25I mean, about,
26:26as of now, about 50.
26:29Yeah, a lot of them
26:29are elderly,
26:30but not exclusively.
26:32I mean, he conned anyone
26:33he could get his hooks in.
26:34I mean, the victims
26:35were left with nothing.
26:36That's a lot of people
26:37who wanted Charles Deacon dead.
26:38Mm-hmm.
26:40This is the woman
26:41who hired me
26:42to find her con man.
26:49Maybe we should take him
26:50back to the hospital.
26:51What, is it not helpful?
26:52No, uh, it's...
26:54This is great.
26:55I'm going to...
26:55We're going to get that
26:56circulate.
26:57Um,
26:58Officer Juarez
26:59was just filling this in
26:59on the victim's victims.
27:01I've run them
27:02against Deacon's aliases,
27:04and the most interesting
27:05one is Morgan Jones,
27:08a stockbroker from New York.
27:10He managed to use
27:11that identity
27:12to land a house
27:12in the Hamptons.
27:13A 17-year-old girl
27:15ended up dead in the pool
27:16while he was having
27:17a blowout party.
27:18Deacon was initially
27:19questioned by police,
27:21but by the time
27:21they learned
27:22he was the one
27:22that provided the drugs
27:23that killed her,
27:24he had disappeared.
27:25Who was this poor girl
27:26who met such a tragic aunt?
27:29Paula Leonardi.
27:30Of the Leonardi crime family?
27:32Yeah.
27:33I mean, her father
27:33is El Jefe,
27:35or whatever they call
27:36the boss of bosses
27:37in Italian.
27:39That's her?
27:40The one who hired me?
27:41What?
27:41Are you sure?
27:45Right.
27:48So what's the plan?
27:48Well, our plan is to
27:50dig deep on Grandma Leonardi
27:52so we can get enough
27:53for a warrant.
27:54Your plan is to go home.
27:57It's not bad enough
27:57I sound like a freak.
27:58You would deny me
27:59the satisfaction
27:59of a vengeance
28:00of my tainted honor?
28:01Okay.
28:02Nobody's denying
28:02your tainted anything.
28:04This is all my fault.
28:06I called the Fraulein
28:07and told her exactly
28:08where the man
28:08who killed her granddaughter
28:09would be.
28:10I must be involved
28:11in making things right.
28:12And you will be.
28:13It's just going to take
28:14a minute to get the warrant.
28:16But when we do,
28:17and it's time to
28:17bring her into custody,
28:19I will definitely call you.
28:23Sniff!
28:25You're relieved?
28:26Uh, I've actually
28:27got a food order coming.
28:28Um.
28:30Uh, just text me
28:32when it arrives.
28:33And by the way,
28:34um, the stapler
28:35was broken
28:35when I got here.
28:53It's simple.
28:54I can't think of anything
28:54more prejudicial
28:55to the jury
28:56than to allow
28:56Harrison Novak
28:57on the witness stand
28:58to falsely confess
28:59to murders
29:00he did not commit.
29:01Your Honor,
29:02Novak possesses
29:02intimate details of crimes
29:04for which my client
29:05has been accused.
29:06Mr. Revers
29:06is prosecuting
29:07the wrong man.
29:08Liam Glaser
29:09is guilty
29:10of those murders.
29:11I plan to prove it
29:11in trial.
29:12This morning,
29:12you are begging me
29:13to take a deal.
29:14Play deal sounds
29:15like a wonderful compromise.
29:16Resent the implication
29:17that I was begging,
29:18but, uh,
29:18the offer still stands.
29:19It is rejected.
29:20Oh, okay.
29:21Your Honor,
29:22Harrison Novak's testimony
29:23is probative
29:24to my client's innocence.
29:26The jury should be
29:27allowed to hear it
29:27and make up their own minds.
29:29Harrison Novak
29:29is a convicted killer.
29:30A convicted killer,
29:31yes,
29:32claiming to have
29:32murdered more people.
29:33Look,
29:33Your Honor,
29:34Your Honor,
29:34bottom line,
29:35the confession's a lie.
29:38You can make
29:39that argument
29:40in court,
29:40Mr. Evers.
29:41I'm allowing it.
29:41Thank you,
29:42Your Honor.
29:42No hard feelings.
29:45I know that you
29:45were involved in this
29:46somehow,
29:46and I'm gonna prove it.
29:48Your Honor,
29:49I've been threatened.
29:50Sir,
29:52the Defense Council
29:53has exhibited
29:54a shocking pattern
29:55of unethical
29:55and potentially criminal
29:57behavior
29:57throughout this whole process.
29:59So.
29:59Watch yourself,
30:00Counselor.
30:01Making accusations
30:02in my presence
30:02without a clear factual basis
30:04won't be tolerated.
30:05It can result
30:06in contempt of court
30:07and possible sanctions.
30:08Understood?
30:10Yes, sir.
30:11Great.
30:16I spoke with a detective
30:18in the organized crime unit
30:19in New York.
30:20According to her,
30:22Sabina Leonardi
30:23is old school.
30:24Avenging her granddaughter's death
30:26would be considered
30:27a family obligation.
30:28Do we have enough to arrest?
30:29Well, given Randy's head trauma,
30:31his positive ID on Sabina
30:33won't pass muster
30:33with the judge,
30:34so we're pulling flight records
30:36trying to establish
30:37that she's here
30:37in Los Angeles.
30:38Sorry.
30:39Randy,
30:39can I call you back?
30:40You can,
30:41but I have exciting news.
30:43I've solved the crime.
30:45Meet me at the motel.
30:46You can prove
30:47Sabina murdered Deacon?
30:48Well,
30:49no, not yet,
30:50but I have a bold plan.
30:52I've invited her
30:52to meet me in my room
30:53where I will get her
30:54to confess
30:55and then hopefully
30:55get another stemple
30:56to the temple
30:57to end this accident nightmare.
30:58That's not bold.
30:59That's insane.
31:01Well,
31:01as my great-uncle
31:02used to say,
31:03where wood is chopped,
31:04splinters must fall.
31:07Sounds better in Germany.
31:08Okay, listen,
31:09you are the only loose end
31:11tying Sabina to the murder.
31:13You put pressure on her,
31:14they will kill you.
31:15Exactly why
31:16I alerted my good friend
31:17John Nolan.
31:18Better hurry up,
31:19they're gonna be here soon.
31:22Any available units
31:23in the vicinity
31:24of the Hollywood Premier Motel?
31:287 Lincoln 300 affirmative.
31:30I'm about four minutes out.
31:327 Lincoln 300,
31:33you were advised
31:34to remain at the station?
31:35Yes, sir.
31:35I didn't want to leave patrol
31:36without their supervising sergeant.
31:39What should I expect
31:39at the motel?
31:42Skip tracer Randy
31:43in potential jeopardy.
31:45Establish a police presence
31:46in the parking lot
31:47waiting for us to arrive.
31:48ETA, 10 minutes.
31:49Do not engage.
31:52Why, yes, Randy.
31:53I had to avenge
31:54the death of my granddaughter
31:55by killing
31:56the evil man responsible.
32:01Why, yes, Randy.
32:02I had to avenge
32:03the death of my granddaughter
32:04by killing
32:04the evil man responsible.
32:15Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
32:16Okay.
32:17Greetings.
32:19Where is the lovely Sabina?
32:27Oh, there you are.
32:28Please, come on in.
32:29Oh, maybe I'd rather be alone.
32:36What happened to your voice, Randy?
32:38Well, you see,
32:39it's called
32:39foreign accent syndrome.
32:40You see,
32:41I sustained a blow
32:42to the head.
32:43Oh!
32:44Oh, maybe that cured me?
32:46Oh, what is that?
32:48Might you be able
32:49to hit me again,
32:49but this time
32:50a little harder.
32:51He talks again.
32:53Shoot him.
32:55That'd cure your problem
32:56permanently.
32:58This is your own fault, Randy.
33:01If you had just
33:02left it alone,
33:04I would have left you alone.
33:07Now,
33:08we're gonna take you somewhere
33:11and kill you.
33:197-Lincoln-300,
33:20I'm code 6-2-4-15-meals.
33:23Start me another unit.
33:27Gentlemen,
33:27I'm gonna need to see
33:28those hands, all right?
33:29Stop moving
33:30and show me your hands!
34:00I'm gonna need to see
34:10I need an R.A. for a G.S.W.
34:14Police! Drop the gun. Show me your hands.
34:17Useless. Hands on the wall. Spread your legs.
34:20Ma'am! Give me a sec. I'm about to have a heart attack.
34:26Yeah, and I will call an ambulance if you do,
34:28but right now I need your hands on the wall.
34:29Oh, okay, okay. Like this.
34:33Yes, ma'am. Let's go.
34:36Wendy! Hey, you okay?
34:42John Nolan! I have never been happy to be smashed in the brain!
34:46Oh! Ah! I have a headache.
34:49Yeah, let's go get that looked at.
34:52Oh, okay. Hey, how many fingers am I holding up?
34:57Two. So you're fine? No, no, I'm great.
34:59Hey, what happened today?
35:04Hey, how's he doing?
35:06Wunderbar. Dr. Ashton thinks my brain bleed fixed my accent.
35:10That sounds serious.
35:11I'm hoping he won't need surgery, but we're closely monitoring for worsening conditions such as headaches, nausea, slurred speech.
35:17My speech is perfect. Listen.
35:20Schnecken erschrecken wenn sie Schnecken schmecken, weil zum Erschrecken vieler Schnecken, Schnecken nicht schmecken.
35:24I might order another CT.
35:26Uh, that's your call, but I'm pretty sure that's Randy's baseline.
35:30Come on.
35:31You disobeyed a direct order.
35:33The order was wrong and patronizing.
35:35I warned you this morning, don't push the failure.
35:38And I didn't.
35:39I was thrown as anyone would have been, but I handled it.
35:43You just didn't trust me.
35:45You make a good point.
35:47I know.
35:50And I know that you're just worried about me and wanting to protect me.
35:54I know that.
35:54But I wasn't listening, and I'm sorry.
36:01I'm sorry, too.
36:02All right.
36:03So what do you need?
36:05You're not gonna like this, but I need to talk to Martin Karpiew's sister.
36:09She deserves to know exactly what happened with her brother.
36:12Look, I mean, you know all the reasons why you shouldn't, but it's your decision.
36:19I am trying to be a good cop and follow all of the rules, but in order for me to
36:23be a good cop, I need to be a good human first.
36:27No matter what comes after that.
36:46Hey, where are the kids?
36:48They're in our room watching a movie eating too much sugar.
36:55Some more bad news?
36:56Well, the DA is dropping all the charges against Liam Glazer.
37:00The Novak confession was the final nail in the proverbial coffin for my boss.
37:09Patience is fine.
37:11Okay.
37:15Patience is fine.
37:17Okay.
37:18So we dig in.
37:20We go through the case with a fine tooth comb and prove that Harrison Novak didn't commit the murders.
37:24We'll prove that Malcolm and Vivian were involved, and then...
37:29We've read your rest class.
37:30Tomorrow morning...
37:33I'm gonna really want that pep talk.
37:36But right now, I just wanna get drunk enough to forget that Liam Glazer is currently being released...
37:43...from prison.
37:54What's going on?
37:56You're going home.
38:11Joan, thank you so much for coming in.
38:14Yeah.
38:17I thought you weren't allowed to talk to me.
38:20I'm not...
38:23Um...
38:23But if I wait for the investigation to end and the lawyers to work everything out, it'll be a year
38:27before you get the answers that you need.
38:29And after everything that your family's been through, I just...
38:33I just can't go along with that, so...
38:38We were attacked the moment that we landed at Westview.
38:43About a dozen people, including your brother, they chased after us, and they were so...
38:50...deranged from this chemical exposure that they barely seemed human.
38:54I tried to hide in this tunnel, but Martin, he found me in there while I was biting somebody else
38:59off.
39:00And before I could react, he was on top of me trying to drive a knife into my chest.
39:05And I thought...
39:07I thought that I was gonna die, and I almost did.
39:09But, um...
39:11Right before the knife entered, I was...
39:13I managed to twist it away from me, and...
39:17And it went into him.
39:22There was no mercy in his act.
39:26Like, there's no humanity.
39:27He wasn't there.
39:30And whatever it was that poisoned him, you know, it robbed him of that.
39:37I'm...
39:38I'm so sorry about what happened.
39:41But...
39:42You know, if I...
39:45I would be dead if I hadn't fought back.
39:47I'm so...
39:50I believe you.
39:54Thank you for being honest.
39:56Yeah.
40:02I need to come in.
40:03I got fresh intel.
40:04How deep Everett's reach extends into the Pentagon.
40:07We need to compare notes...
40:08In person.
40:10I'll be on the red-eye home.
40:12She set the trap.
40:14Now we see who follows her home.
40:34What the hell are you doing here?
40:37Nyla.
40:39I can only imagine how upset you must feel.
40:41So...
40:42So...
40:43I brought donuts.
40:46It's my way of saying...
40:48No hard feelings.
40:53Careful.
40:55Last conversation we had by this van got you demoted.
41:00No.
41:01I am gonna go...
41:03And get my life back on track.
41:08You want the donuts or not?
41:12Hm?
41:14What's your loss?
41:17Got jelly.
41:20Glasser.
41:23This isn't over.
41:49You want to get your memories?
42:07It's our taffers.
42:08Ain't COVID-19.
42:08mierda.lighet,
42:10the good spirit. Hey I.
42:20Damn it.
