00:03Hey, 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 getting 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!
00:27Okay.
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.
00:36I really 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
00:43lives.
00:43It seems 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 me battlefield medicine into the 22nd century.
00:55It's the most consequential assignment in 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.
01:08He could recruit anyone for this working group.
01:11And the fact that he called me first, I mean, that's pretty great.
01:15Yeah.
01:15A hundred percent.
01:16That's so cool.
01:17I mean, our life is perfect right now.
01:20There's no way we're messing that up.
01:21No way.
01:23Perfect.
01:29Police! Get down!
01:30This is Bailey Noon, L.A.F.D.
01:32I need an RA to Central Station Market.
01:34We have 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.

02:28sure that would be nice but we created our family here which i love but now we're bursting at the
02:34seams and mama's ready to crack open that trust fund and get crazy i'm not sure i like the sound
02:39of that tough we have money uh no we have some money but housing prices in a layer insane
02:46i 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
02:57yeah quickie before the kids make up oh um
03:10too late i like this one i bet you could hang a swing set from that tree right there in
03:16the back
03:16that was my favorite until i saw this it has a pool and a gym and a screening room wait
03:24hold up you got
03:25screen and room kind of money depends on which one of us you ask wesley is the king of frugality
03:30so he would definitely say no but i lived on credit cards until i met him so i'm way more
03:35comfortable
03:36pushing the envelope hey nolan did you tell officer hart that the shooters last night were furries
03:43no i said they were wearing hoodies are you taking the case yeah do you mind just walking us through
03:48it
03:48yeah uh bailey and i were coming back from dinner at central station market date night no her former
03:53commanding officer came to offer her a job uh pentagon think tank wow you really married outside
03:59of your league i know right so is she gonna take it no uh it would mean relocating to dc
04:04so it's a
04:05non-starter for us i mean it might be a non-starter for you but i guarantee that your overachiever
04:09of a
04:09wife is seriously thinking about it no actually she was laughing it off when we talked about oh my
04:15god she's actually thinking about it seriously okay well no no if that's something she really wants to do
04:21relocating to dc could be cool it's not i spent time there during my joint ops days it took me
04:26about three weeks to unclench every time i came home thank you for that insight so any clarity on
04:32the victim fred wilson 48 cpa married no kids no criminal record making him an unlikely candidate
04:39for a targeted assassination is there anything else about the shooters that you didn't give heart
04:44sorry i did not get a good look at them what about cctv anything there they were pretty covered up
04:50but
04:52take a look at this
04:58uh looks like glitter's sf that would make him southern front no visible tattoos on the second shooter
05:06huh yeah so why would a member of a white supremacist gang partner up with a black man to execute
05:12a
05:12civilian in broad daylight told you he'd spot it you trained him well could be that our innocent cpa
05:18was helping the southern front to launder money or maybe he had a drug problem and owed them money
05:23we're trying to get the me to rush the talk screen but he's dodging our calls oh santa more i'll
05:29go
05:29deliver the ask in person let me collect my boot
05:34hey do you know what this is an iron you know what it's not a machete i am due in
05:40court in two hours to

05:56just trying to keep him in blissful ignorance as long as possible help me that's the case number no i
06:01know but it's wrong the case number isn't wrong the item might be wrong but numbers are just numbers
06:09fine um so the point is i have to be at court uh and and i need that machete like
06:15asap case number
06:16uh we're not going to find out by using the case number the numbers got switched well if you don't
06:21have the case number then i can't help you oh wesley's gonna kill me it's uh relax maybe it's just
06:26a typo right the first eight numbers are the date the crime was on january 20th try 2010-2026
06:37try 0201-2026
06:41wow 20-01-2025
06:48are you sure you use the new data entry procedure we changed it a few months ago of course i
06:53did i keep
06:56but i wasn't the one who logged the entry because you wouldn't approve the overtime i had smitty do
07:01it
07:04what the hell is your problem uh good morning i have bent over backwards to treat you well and this
07:10is 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
07:14little innocent act would be a lot more believable if they weren't in your office just know this if you
07:19go 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
07:34spiral rita
07:35sanchez this is bradley worth we work with the democratic party and we want you to run for district
07:40attorney and now it makes sense that's a hard no for me by the way but thanks for stopping by
07:46look
07:46you obviously know that vivian eckhart's running on a post since del monte dropped out of the race
07:49yeah 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
08:08but 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
08:24to embrace that i mean you're a hero who put his life and career on the line to take down
08:29a very
08:29dangerous kingpin voters love a man who's willing to stand up for what's right not to mention you're
08:34married to a cop which automatically makes you a more attractive candidate to anyone worried that
08:39progressive means soft on crime look i don't want vivian to win any more than you do but but nothing
08:45a vivian victory will hurt a lot of people and right now you're our last hope at stopping her
08:50it may be a long shot but isn't it worth the risk
08:53i thought you didn't have time to stroke my ego
09:00you have to let me see i don't actually on tv the family has to identify the body yeah we
09:06don't do
09:06that anymore that's right ma'am it's no longer policy but trust me it's for the best seeing your loved
09:13one like that it it changes how you remember them forever i don't understand fred was a saint why would
09:21someone want to kill him well that's what we're trying to figure out he's really dead yes ma'am i'm
09:28afraid so and we are so sorry for your loss okay thank you thanks for the assist grief makes people
09:40a
09:40little crazy 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
09:53bullet to the head killed him instantly but the shot to the body was fatal as well any signs of
09:57drug use
09:58no but the the talk screen is underway i'll let harper and lopez know the second it comes in perfect
10:04thank you very much i once had a widower insist on seeing his wife's body back when i was a
10:09sugar
10:09land ended up suing the city for mental anguish did he win no case got dismissed when he was convicted
10:15of her murder wow hey please let her go whoa hi hi it's all it's all good she's she's fine
10:24i'm fine
10:25yeah i can see that but two minutes ago you were grieving i'm still grieving it manifests itself in
10:32unknowable ways right but you brought your boyfriend to help you identify your husband's body i needed
10:38emotional support she's very sensitive yeah well you can emotionally support each other on the way to
10:44station let's go oh this way this way yes okay put your hands down yes sir wow i know this
10:53looks bad
10:55understatement 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
11:06would look weird
11:06but 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
11:26it was an open marriage the whole thing was fred's idea guy wanted a little bit of peace is it
11:34possible
11:34that todd wanted you all to himself listen i am twice divorced i am still paying alimony to the
11:42first i am not trying to put a ring on it there's a reason why todd is divorced todd is
11:49a good time
11:51like coney island fred on the other hand was deep and soulful and romantic like paris
12:04coney island is fun to visit but you don't move there oh hurt paris what do you think i think
12:11people are crazy but neither of them is a physical match for the shooters still doesn't rule out murder
12:16for hire um yeah did you put wesley up to this no idea what you're talking about but if it's
12:23pissing
12:24you off i'm happy to take credit if he insists on moving forward i can't guarantee that i'll be able
12:29to keep you out of the crossfire did she just threaten me sure seems like it but why no idea
12:37but
12:38i'm gonna find out oh husband you only call me husband when you're mad what did i do you tell
12:45me
12:45vivian just stopped by she told you i was running for da wait you're running for da since when no
12:52wait
12:52it got sprung on me this morning what does that mean some people came to talk to me about taking
12:56over
12:56sean's campaign and you told them no i did initially but but now you're thinking about
13:04it i mean i'd at least like to discuss it but i am supposed to be on my way to
13:08court right now only
13:09lucy texted to tell me that our key piece of evidence is missing so is there any chance that
13:12we can just table this until tonight fine but only because yelling at you in the bullpen might come
13:17across as unprofessional thank you i love you everything okay are you free for dinner tonight
13:27depends can i bring james as long as you tell him he has to be team lopez on the penalty
13:32of death
13:33uh we'll be sure to prep him i remember lucy gave me the machete and i logged it like i
13:40always do
13:40okay so that right there is the problem smitty the system changed most of the world uses day month
13:46year month day year was causing all of these issues for us with our international cases which is why we
13:51switched you know didn't you read the memo sorry wait i just heard that out loud of course you didn't
13:57important memos are always covered in the roll call why do i have a panicked ada knocking on my door
14:04to ask for my help to find a missing machete because smitty wasn't listening when he went over the
14:08change in how we file case numbers what the day month year thing yeah i didn't go over it my
14:15last
14:15day as watch commander was crazy i left it for you to do i thought you handled it oh it's
14:19not my fault
14:20it's yours everyone got the memo it's still your fault smitty well it's still on him for trusting me
14:25i didn't trust you i thought he covered it and i just didn't follow up i can't believe i dropped
14:29the
14:29ball i don't care whose fault it is i need the machete smitty used the old system right try zero
14:35one
14:36twenty twenty twenty six i i can't it's a drop down menu and there's no 20th month what so you
14:41can enter the 20th month but you can't retrieve the 20th month correct no that's wrong it shouldn't
14:45work that way but that is how it works wesley says the judge is losing his patience if you can't
14:52produce the evidence he's prepared to dismiss the case guys this is bigger than one case everything
14:57smitty log has been misfiled going back two months did the widow shed some light uh not exactly but
15:04her doorbell cam did this is from two days ago the car is registered to a rider frost known member
15:10of the southern front well that tattoo is a match definitely could be our shooter any idea who the
15:14other fella is not yet but his tats are 54 street gang besides the racial element don't sf and the
15:20five four compete for the same meth business they did up until a few months ago when the armenians
15:24pushed southern front further into the valley but they are certainly not allies they case the garage
15:29but not the house any idea what they were looking for we've got a last known for ryder we're hoping
15:34you go
15:34ask him
15:45wait
15:50control and pursue the suspect at dreamworld lake apartments some backup
16:08come on
16:09come on
16:29come on rider there's nowhere to go put your hands on your head down on your knees
16:39wait wait wait wait wait wait wait stop stop stop
16:59i'm sorry are these cases from the future apparently the system didn't know what to do
17:03with month 20 and so it just made the math work and 12 months plus eight is august 20 27.
17:08cases
17:08from 21st become september of next year and so on this is unbelievable the judge granted a continuance
17:14but we need the machete by noon tomorrow yep don't worry we will have it i'll stick around i feel
17:18responsible it's completely on me i don't should clarify you are on your way out okay you guys are
17:23both spartacus okay let's please start opening the boxes are you coming no
17:29russ russ i thought you had a flight to catch i do but i couldn't leave l.a without making
17:33one last
17:33appeal well i guess you better come in then thank you oh you've really made a nice life for yourself
17:42here noon i can uh i can see why you'd hesitate before giving it up but
17:50anything i can say to convince you can i ask why i'm not a doctor or a scientist i don't
17:57have a phd
17:58why are you asking me maybe you've been around long enough to know that having a few extra letters
18:03after your name doesn't make you a genius i also know that if i bring you a problem you won't
18:06rest
18:07until you've looked at it from every conceivable angle twice before bringing me a solution what if i
18:12can't find a solution hell girl that's why they call it a think tank does me no good to have
18:16a
18:17bunch of identical people with identical viewpoints looking in identical directions baseball team can't
18:23be all pitchers need somebody to play shortstop all right i miss my flight if i don't get going so
18:29you know take a few days to think about it talk it over with your man and call me i
18:34will
18:37you know noon if you don't want the job because it's not the right fit or the
18:41right time that's fine i get it but deciding that you're not good enough before somebody else can
18:47that's the coward's way i know you're not a coward no sir i'm not
18:58giddy up
19:07yeah all right okay thanks for the update suspect in the central station market shooting fell to his
19:14death that's awful i got that he was an action hero trying to leap between two buildings any leads on
19:18the second shooter no but the brass has been blown up my phone you know a guy falls to his
19:22death in a
19:22police pursuit everyone's got questions captain always a pleasure
19:29i do not miss that i don't think i've seen him sleep more than four consecutive hours since he
19:33took this job i know being sidelined for the president's visit shook him up and even though
19:39it was more of a cya decision by the brass an indictment on his performance the optics weren't
19:44great for him do you think you should be worried i think that watch commander is a thankless job
19:50you're not in the field but you're responsible for every knucklehead that is patrol officers want
19:54resources you can't give them the brass expects results that you realistically can't produce and
19:59when there's bad press and they're looking for a head to roll right i didn't think of it that way
20:04because i made it look easy you'll get the hang of it
20:12the machete yes i gotta i gotta call wesley all right way to beat on that
20:23oh yeah that sounds horrible it wasn't pretty that's for sure nolan and i barely had time to
20:28twitch before it was all over oh so where does that leave the case still trying to id the second
20:34shooter
20:37hmm hey did you know the armenians pushed the southern front's meth trade deeper into the deeper
20:42into the valley yep happened a few months ago i just want to write every gang report the department
20:46puts out and i haven't seen anything about that yeah see those reports only get you so far i mean
20:50the best information is usually through word of mouth which is great for me because i know people from
20:56all over the city well how can i compete with that when i just got here it takes time to
21:01cultivate that
21:01kind of choice true but i mean you'd be shocked by what some of these low-level game makers put
21:06on
21:06social media the ellie gang subreddit is a great resource look i gotta stay up anyway i've got a 2am
21:13zoom date with raj why don't i show you some of my favorite accounts to follow who knows you might
21:18see
21:19something on writer all right let's go coach i'm ready hey good to see you you too how you doing
21:27i thought we might need this oh very thoughtful what do you guys think should we crack it now or
21:33save it for dinner my vote is now okay and don't be stingy with the pores
21:39everyone clear on the plan oh yes yes james snows agree with everything you say and keep the
21:44starry-eyed reformer talk on our minimum perfect operation killer dream is a go
21:50mm-hmm he has a point we complain all the time about undocumented witnesses being too scared to
21:56testify instituting a policy that would protect them from deportation that would be a game changer
22:02i thought it was supposed to be team lopez i know but it's a good idea i'm not saying it's
22:07not a good
22:08idea but i think we're getting away from the larger point which is we'd be opening our lives up to
22:14public
22:14scrutiny which would be hard enough for you and me and i worry what it'll do to the kids so
22:20do i
22:22but i also want them to grow up knowing that their father is willing to fight for the rights of
22:26everybody even when it's difficult hey man what you started it think of what i'd be in the position
22:33to influence as the da i could end cash bail expand victim services emphasize counseling institutional
22:41change is always hard right but does that mean that i shouldn't try what about the house
22:47yeah well we would probably have to wait on that i mean optics would and you'd be fine
22:51letting public perception dictate how we live our lives in service of real reform
22:59maybe real change requires sacrifice but i would not do it at the expense of our family i would need
23:04to know that you were on board 100 percent hello whoa something smells good because i cooked
23:17more than cooked candles should i be worried no not at all i just know you had a really hard
23:23day
23:23and i want to do something nice for you oh yeah uh-huh and uh what do you really want
23:30in exchange for
23:31this totally no strings attached feast a conversation about dc i didn't know we needed to have one i know
23:40and that is my fault but all day i have not been able to get this idea out of my
23:47head and russ stopped
23:48by on the way to the airport and gave me his final appeal and it made me question why i
23:55was so quick
23:56to shut it down well and before you tell me no or give me 100 reasons why it won't work
24:01all i ask is
24:02that you spend some time to explore the idea and by that you mean see what transferring to dc police
24:09would look like make some calls ask some questions kick the tires and what if we come to different
24:16conclusions we abort the mission either we're both in or both out we need both keys to launch the torpedoes
24:23yes what do you think
24:29i think i want you to be happy and if this is something you want then i will do everything
24:36i can from my end to see if it's feasible we're in this together
24:48is it just me or these numbers starting to blend together it is not just you okay everything okay
24:54with the press writer's death was ruled in accidents but there's always a chance they could reopen the
25:00case or blame me for this whole evidence logging mess hey just take the win you're right
25:07i swear if i lose watch commander because of smithy that's not gonna happen i have been manifesting
25:13that we will find this machete all day manifesting god i got you away from waters just in time
25:19shut up you gotta be kidding me
25:24oh my god
25:31this is it this is it thank god all right let's go home
25:34wait where are you a yurt in finland the northern lights have been amazing the last few nights jealous

26:58the
26:58repairs on his car the bumper tested positive for blood francis are running the sample what's ryder's

27:26all i remember is going out to bring my trash cans in and then waking up here and they told
27:34me it was
27:34a a hit and run unfortunately the man suspected of hitting you with his car was murdered we have
27:40reason to believe your former foster sons ryder frost and kingston holmes want a revenge for what
27:45happened to you it was painful enough losing ryder and kingston to the streets i don't think i can
27:53take knowing that they killed a man because of me we're very sorry but i'm afraid that's not all
28:01ryder died yesterday trying to jump between rooftops they were just hurt little boys underneath it all you
28:08know when ryder first came to us he was so shut down he barely said two words to me that
28:19first month
28:20the kingston he always had this way about him this lightness even after all he'd been through
28:31but then they started to do everything together and bit by bit
28:42i got to see ryder for the sweet sensitive boy he was what happened ryder's mom came back into the
28:52picture with her skinhead boyfriend and once he was gone all of kingston's
28:58his light went with him he started to act out getting in trouble
29:07and he was finally put away on some trumped up vandalism charge and 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
29:32i'm sorry for how much pain this has caused you but we'd like to bring kingston in without any more
29:37bloodshed do you have any way of contacting him what do you want me to say hey the judge signed
29:49off on

37:36The key is processed.
37:37Ah, thank you for that.
37:39Um, look, I realize this was a bit of a tough one.
37:42Are you 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
37:55to pull that trigger.
37:58Why don't you go home? I'll take care of the paperwork.
38:01Yes, sir. Thank you. You bet.
38:05Uh...
38:08It amazes me how one man can wreak such havoc on the entire LAPD.
38:13Smitty is a force of nature.
38:16Uh, got a minute?
38:17Yeah, Sean, what's up?
38:18Well, Bailey has been offered a pretty impressive job in D.C.,
38:23a Pentagon think tank,
38:25and I was just wondering what a transfer to the DCPD would be like.
38:30Yeah, I can get you in touch with a few people,
38:33but you do know you would have to start at the very bottom again,
38:36including redoing the academy.
38:39I've done it before.
38:40You were also five years younger.
38:42Yes.
38:43You would get a pretty hefty signing bonus.
38:46That'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.
38:54So 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.
39:09Yeah, well, good luck.
39:15Hey.
39:18The L.A.P.D. would be sad to see you go.
39:21Thank you, sir.
39:29Guess what?
39:30What?
39:31We won.
39:32That's great.
39:33Did 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.
39:49You know, you're a really good watch commander.
39:52I'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 comm.
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
40:06is getting longer.
40:07Do you think he's doing it on purpose?
40:09Weaponizing competence?
40:10Yeah.
40:11I don't think he's that strategic.
40:19Hey.
40:21Sorry I missed dinner.
40:24And bedtime.
40:27You should run for DA.
40:30Are you sure?
40:32Because if you're not in 100%...
40:34I'm in.
40:35The more I thought about it, the more I realized this
40:38was exactly why you joined the DA's office in the first place.
40:41Hm.
40:42And I'm proud you want to set that example for our children.
40:45Especially because every day I see firsthand the people,
40:48our system has failed.
40:50And inevitably the ones who suffer the most are other kids.
40:56You 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.
41:08We brought home two babies here.
41:13We also made two babies here.
41:16So we did.
41:17Mm-hmm.
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.
41:36I 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.
41:48I don't think I can stay.
41:50What if...
41:54I'm not ready to say no.
41:56Well, you did say we both had to be in or you would walk away.
42:02I know.
42:02And I meant it when I said it.
42:07But now...
42:08You still want it.
42:13So what does that leave us?
42:14So what does that leave us?
42:39So what does that leave us?
42:45So...
42:52...
42:53...
42:54Dammit.
