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.
00:13Harrison Novak.
00:13Hunting my 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 don't know his name.
00:35His name was Martin.
00:43Don't worry. I'm up.
00:46You're looking pretty horizontal to me.
00:53Yeah.
00:55Hey.
00:57There is no shame if you're not ready, all 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.
01:17Listen.
01:19It doesn't matter.
01:21Okay?
01:22And this is going to sound cold-blooded, but in the moment, Martin Carpio was a homicidal maniac about to
01:29drive 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
01:41your 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.
02:00I'm on it.
02:01Of course.
02:02Look, you're not going to have to worry about me, okay?
02:04I 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.
02:18Okay.
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 Nagales.
02:42What?
02:44One 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 Glasser's victims, and Dearborn was drugged into a mental health
03:09crisis.
03:09Ryan had drugs in his system, which Glasser's lawyer will argue he took himself, even though I think Glasser's lawyer
03:14is the one who did the drugging.
03:16But we have zero evidence that Malcolm Walsh did anything, but we have zero evidence that Malcolm Walsh did anything,
03:19right?
03:21Unfortunately.
03:23Selene 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 Glasser's shower, stuck full of needles?
03:36I know it's not murder, but we've got to be able to convict them for that, and for attacking Nolan
03:40in the basement.
03:41Glasser claims that Phil Warren was an unhoused person who broke in and took shelter from the fires, and that
03:47he 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, Glasser 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, not as bad as she thinks.
04:11You gave her that tough love speech?
04:13Almost word for word from the one you gave me.
04:15Oh.
04:18How are things with Luna?
04:21Well, I'm still living in the hotel.
04:24Luna says she wants to talk, but I say if she won't quit her job, I have nothing to talk
04:28about.
04:29Rinse and repeat.
04:30So no one's filed the paperwork yet?
04:31No.
04:33I don't want to get divorced, but 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?
04:51It's connected to the Every 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
04:58bad.
04:58There's never been a female operator in that spec ops team.
05:01I mean, she could be intelligence.
05:03You know, some case officers feel an unhealthy connection to their kill squads.
05:07Go ahead.
05:10Rather.
05:13Understood.
05:16What's wrong?
05:17Harrison Novak is coming in to, quote, unburden himself of additional crimes he committed, unquote.
05:24Good morning.
05:26I had a wonderful moment of clarity over the weekend.
05:29Yeah, sure.
05:30I don't get mad at a bug that splatters my windshield, so why would I get so worked up over
05:36you?
05:36I'm not taking the Bay, Vivian, so you just get to the point.
05:39I heard about the glass or 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.
06:01Harrison Novak is coming in to confess to more crimes after pleading guilty to all the ones I charged him
06:07with.
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.
06:20You too.
06:27Hey.
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.
06:43It will, but I'm sure it's nothing.
06:47Okay.
06:51Hey.
07:01Hey, I'm supposed to talk to you about something.
07:04Bradford said it was important.
07:06Um, important that I talk to you.
07:08Oh, wait.
07:09I'm not supposed to ask you about what you did on penalty of...
07:13Smitty.
07:13My office.
07:14Now.
07:17I didn't actually ask her about that, you know.
07:24Did you tell everybody to avoid me?
07:26I mean, I might have encouraged a few people to give you your space.
07:31Well, 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.
07:39Tim, 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 over having lunch.
07:55No.
07:57Hello.
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,
08:08and there's no way of knowing how it's going to 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.
08:55She's not safe, John.
08:57But you need to be careful about how you warn her,
09:00or you could make it worse.
09:03What'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.
09:11Show us on route.
09:29Hey, couldn't you have parked on the street?
09:32I don't need everybody in Hollywood knowing you're here, so...
09:35We're here on the daily, Earl.
09:36You need one of those signs that say,
09:38days since police last visited,
09:40so we can keep marking it back to zero.
09:42That's the way everybody's a comedian, huh?
09:44Hey, so where's the body?
09:45This way.
09:47There we go.
09:50So, one of our guests,
09:54he checked out a little early,
09:56and 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 family establishment.
10:05Manson family, maybe.
10:09When 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.
10:18The two eyes picked in his head?
10:20Yeah, I didn't really 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.
10:31Victim is male in his 40s.
10:33Let's 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 to be a dead body?
10:43We can start with something easier.
10:46Are you kidding?
10:47This is right out of the Tim Bradford
10:48School of Trauma Recovery.
10:50You got to get right back on that horse.
10:51If you get punched in the mouth, you...
10:52Hey!
10:53What?
10:54Get out of there!
10:55You know he can't hear you, right?
10:58Wait, is that...
10:58Is that the Fernando Valenzuela baseball?
11:00Put that down!
11:10Watch commander's office.
11:12Put that ball away
11:12or I'm coming back there
11:13and shoving it down your throat.
11:18There are some very interesting events
11:21taking place in the world.
11:23We are scared.
11:27We are still...
11:31We are deep.
11:34They take our hands
11:36and they're now really fishing
11:38on that shark.
11:42I'm sick of it.
11:45I'm sick of it.
11:49I'm sick of it.
11:53Looking fine, ladies.
11:58There he is.
11:59The next district attorney
12:01of Los Angeles.
12:05Though I, uh...
12:07hear my case is hurting
12:08in the polls.
12:11These are on.
12:13Right?
12:14Good.
12:15I'm gonna need to, uh...
12:17get 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
12:52that some of the bodies
12:53you dug up weren't mine.
12:55And that...
12:58that wasn't true.
13:00If I take the deal,
13:02isn't that the same
13:03as pleading guilty?
13:05Yes.
13:07Then how can I,
13:08in good conscience,
13:10confess to something
13:11that I didn't do?
13:14Everybody
13:16in that field
13:17was put there by me.
13:21Liam Glasser
13:22had nothing to do
13:23with any of those murders.
13:36Okay, this guy got a name?
13:38Several.
13:39TID is getting started
13:40on his room, 212.
13:42So far we have IDs
13:43for Jack Dawes,
13:44Patrick Sullivan,
13:45Roger Newman,
13:46and Ken Marigold.
13:47Let's go knock on some doors.
13:48Maybe somebody saw something.
13:50Yeah.
13:51Can I grab you
13:52a second before we get started?
13:53Yeah, sure.
13:54I need to call Bailey
13:55at the Pentagon,
13:56but I can't call her phones.
13:59Is there something
13:59I should know?
14:00I don't know.
14:01Might be nothing.
14:02Hopefully it's nothing.
14:03All right, I'll make a call.
14:04I got a few people
14:04in the building
14:05that can get her
14:05a clean phone.
14:07Yeah.
14:13Hi, sir.
14:14I'm Officer Juarez
14:15with LAPD.
14:16There was a murder
14:17this morning
14:18and I was wondering
14:19whether you...
14:22first name
14:23kissed my
14:24last name
14:24ass
14:25syrup.
14:26Hyphen in there somewhere.
14:28Did you notice
14:29anything suspicious?
14:33Look, we're not here
14:34for your pet,
14:35Mr. Jaffe.
14:35Although I'm pretty sure
14:36that snake is better.
14:37Did you talk
14:38to the man in 212?
14:41Ma'am,
14:42it may be allowed
14:43with smoking
14:43while using an oxygen tank
14:44as a fire hazard.
14:49Officer John Nolan.
14:50Randy?
14:50What are you doing here?
14:51I'm on the trail
14:52of a devious con man.
14:53I've been watching him
14:54every second
14:55of every hour
14:55or every day
14:56for weeks.
14:57The man in 212
14:58will not escape my grasp.
15:00The man in 212
15:01is dead.
15:02Verdummed.
15:04Hey,
15:04this is a disaster.
15:05I know.
15:06It sounds bad,
15:07but I think
15:08we can turn it around.
15:09How?
15:09Harrison Novak
15:10just confessed
15:10to Liam Glazer's murders.
15:12The timing
15:12cannot be a coincidence.
15:14I mean,
15:15Glazer basically
15:16laughed on my face
15:16when I made the plea offer.
15:17It's like he knew
15:18that Novak's confession
15:19was coming.
15:19We'll figure out
15:20the connection later.
15:21For now,
15:22let's U and E
15:23blow a few giant holes
15:24in Novak's
15:25fake confession
15:25and send him back
15:26to prison
15:27with his tail
15:27between his legs.
15:30We got this.
15:39Turn this on
15:41and call your husband.
15:45I'm confused.
15:46Who is your client?
15:47Frau Linda Chandler.
15:49The con man in 212
15:50stole her retirement savings
15:51in a Heim-Türkisch scheme.
15:53He told her
15:53she was investing
15:54in a Florida condominium,
15:55but it was Zümfland.
15:57Now she has nothing
15:57but the clothes
15:58on her back.
15:59Well,
15:59we found at least
16:00five IDs.
16:01Odds are he's running
16:02all sorts of scams
16:04all over the country
16:04with different victims.
16:05It's going to take
16:06a while to unwind this.
16:07Yeah.
16:07No need.
16:08I've located
16:09a bread trail
16:10that led me
16:11to what the rappers
16:11call his government name,
16:13Charles Deacon.
16:14That's good work.
16:16Okay,
16:16we're going to need
16:17to speak with your client.
16:18Oh, yes.
16:18I'll air-bop you
16:19her contact.
16:20Uh,
16:21I'm sorry.
16:21I have to take this.
16:23Okay.
16:26Hello?
16:26Why did a stranger
16:27hand me an audio jammer
16:29and a burner phone
16:29and tell me to call you?
16:31I have been told
16:32that you are in danger.
16:33Told by who?
16:36Zuzu.
16:37The homicidal AI?
16:38Since when have you
16:39become besties
16:40with that thing?
16:41I,
16:41I,
16:41I'm not.
16:42It's complicated,
16:44but it,
16:45it called
16:46to warn me
16:47that someone
16:47has been doing
16:48a deep background check
16:50on you.
16:50That your phones,
16:51your apartment,
16:52your office,
16:53they're all most likely bucked.
16:54And,
16:55it could just be
16:56Zuzu playing games.
16:57On the other hand,
16:59I had a fairly strong feeling
17:01I was being followed
17:01last night.
17:02And you didn't call me?
17:03I wasn't sure.
17:05Things have just felt
17:06a little off
17:06ever since Wade
17:07asked me to knock
17:08on a door.
17:09What door?
17:09It was a task force thing,
17:11something ever related.
17:12And I am gonna kill Gray.
17:14Why don't you try
17:15looping him in first
17:16and I'll act normally.
17:17Bailey.
17:18It's fine.
17:19Nothing's gonna happen
17:20to me in the building.
17:21Hi.
17:21Hey.
17:22How many doors left?
17:23Uh, three.
17:24Okay, well,
17:25if they've got a warrant,
17:26they're probably gonna
17:27lie low until we're
17:28out of here.
17:28Right.
17:30I know I'm not
17:31supposed to ask
17:31how you are,
17:32but if you need me
17:33for anything,
17:34I'm good.
17:35Yeah, thank you.
17:39Excuse me, sir.
17:40Hey!
17:41Police!
17:42I gotta go.
17:42Sir, hey!
17:47Cuffin' waters.
17:49Yeah.
17:49Hey, Randy.
17:51Randy, you okay?
17:52Yeah, but my bell
17:54is really ringing.
17:55The hell happened
17:56to his accent?
17:57What are you talking about?
17:59Schnitzel.
18:00Strudel.
18:02Schwarzenegger.
18:03What is happening
18:04to me, John Nolan?
18:05I sound so flat,
18:07so bland,
18:08so...
18:09America.
18:14I wanted to keep
18:15my ammo unpredictable,
18:17so I killed men
18:18and women.
18:20I just buried the dudes
18:23in a different area.
18:25Didn't want them
18:27mingling.
18:28All the men were strangled,
18:29but the women were bludgeoned.
18:31I'd like to mix it up.
18:33What about the needles?
18:34You want us to believe
18:35that you only injected
18:36the men with foreign
18:37substances and not the women?
18:39Oh, well,
18:40the men were there
18:41for a very different purpose.
18:43They were there
18:44to be tortured physically,
18:46whereas with the women,
18:46it was much more...
18:51psychological.
18:52Okay, so let's go
18:53case by case.
18:54As we said before,
18:56all the men were strangled.
18:57Is that right?
18:58Yes.
18:58Wait.
18:59No.
19:03This dude,
19:04I want to say
19:05his name was...
19:07Conrad?
19:10Conrad almost
19:10got away from me.
19:12so I had to
19:15kill him
19:15with a hatchet
19:16I kept in my car.
19:19That information
19:20was never released,
19:21not even to the family.
19:22I can see that
19:23you want more specifics.
19:26Okay?
19:30Victim number one,
19:32Gran Nogales.
19:33Only one that I actually
19:34knew personally
19:35I would see him
19:35when I was a patient
19:36at Westview
19:37restocking the snack machine
19:38when Glasser
19:39had a day off.
19:41Second was just
19:42some homeless guy
19:43abducted out of
19:44an encampment
19:44on Sepulveda.
19:45Oh.
19:46There he is.
19:47Poor JJ.
19:50Now this one...
19:55is not mine.
19:57Nice try.
19:59How'd you get this?
20:01Stock furrows?
20:03Victim number three.
20:06I picked him up
20:07by the side of the road
20:08in Carpinteria.
20:10Fun fact,
20:12strangled him
20:12with his own belt
20:13then buried him
20:15with it.
20:16I have a feeling
20:18that little detail
20:20didn't make the papers.
20:25My best guess
20:26is foreign accent syndrome.
20:28How do I fix it?
20:30And why is he now Southern?
20:32It could be his brain's
20:33way of working
20:33its way back to normal.
20:35Your CT scan was clean
20:36so there's really
20:37no immediate medical
20:38treatment I can offer.
20:39But will he get better?
20:40Probably,
20:40but not a certainty.
20:42Right now,
20:42you just have to learn
20:43to live with it.
20:44I gotta go.
20:45Excuse me.
20:47Well, Randy,
20:48I know even for you
20:50this is a little weird.
20:52I'm lost, John Nolan.
20:54Without my accent,
20:55I'm just another
20:55generic,
20:57handsome
20:57beefcake in Los Angeles.
21:01Nolan, go to Channel 11.
21:03Go for Nolan?
21:04You still with Randy?
21:05Guten tag.
21:06Listen,
21:07the contact details
21:07you gave us
21:08for the woman
21:08who hired you
21:09are a literal
21:09dead end.
21:11She died of a stroke
21:11two years ago.
21:12Do you think
21:13I was hired by a ghost?
21:14Over?
21:14No.
21:16Let me get this straight.
21:17Randy was hired
21:18to find a con man
21:19using dozens of aliases
21:21by a woman
21:22who was using an alias?
21:23Correct.
21:25Okay,
21:25just wanted to
21:26say it out loud.
21:27Randy,
21:27you didn't verify
21:28her identity
21:29when she hired you?
21:29No,
21:30you silly goose.
21:30My clients
21:31don't hire me
21:31to background check them.
21:33Right.
21:34I'm gonna take Randy
21:35back to the station
21:36and have him work
21:37with a composite artist.
21:38I'll call you
21:38if we find anything useful.
21:39I wanna hold my breath.
21:42How's he doing?
21:43Same.
21:44Still in the Zoom meeting.
21:47I don't know about that.
21:48What do you mean?
21:49Well,
21:50has he moved at all?
21:52It's frozen.
21:54Or it's a photo
21:56he propped up
21:57on the camera.
21:58No.
21:58Yeah.
22:05Why put so much effort
22:06into being lazy?
22:07Wouldn't it be easier
22:08to just do the job?
22:09It's his passion.
22:12What the hell
22:12have you got my wife into?
22:14I don't know
22:14what you're talking about.
22:15You had her knock
22:15on a door,
22:16now she's being surveilled.
22:18How do you know that?
22:18That's a story
22:20for another time.
22:20More importantly,
22:21what are you and Garza
22:22gonna do
22:22to ensure her safety?
22:24Everything.
22:24I'll call Garza
22:25right now
22:26and come up
22:26with a plan.
22:27Okay,
22:27but he's gonna see
22:28this as an opportunity
22:29to stalk the stalkers.
22:31I am telling you
22:32her safety
22:33is more important
22:33than any investigation
22:34you got her wrapped up in.
22:36I hear you.
22:36I'll make this right.
22:38I'm sorry.
22:39We never intended
22:40to put her in danger.
22:41Harrison Novak
22:42has seen Blasher's file.
22:43That is the only way
22:45that he can know
22:45all of these details.
22:47I'm telling you,
22:47first Malcolm
22:48dose Ryan Dearborn
22:49and now he's somehow
22:50convinced Novak
22:51to come in
22:51with this false confession.
22:53Malcolm Walsh
22:54was just brought up
22:55to speed
22:55on the Novak confession
22:56and he didn't rub it
22:58in my face
22:58because he knew
22:59it was coming in
23:00and he didn't want
23:00to overplay his hand.
23:01Any luck tying him
23:02to Novak in prison?
23:03Nothing direct,
23:04but Malcolm represents
23:05two prisoners
23:06on Novak's cell block.
23:07It would have been easy
23:08for him to communicate
23:09through one of them.
23:09As a true crime fetishist,
23:11Novak would have been
23:12following the public details
23:13of Glasser's case
23:14in the media.
23:15All Malcolm had to do
23:16was fill in the blanks.
23:17But there is
23:18one other possibility,
23:19a simpler path
23:20directly from the DA's office
23:22to Novak.
23:23Novak has been
23:24representing himself,
23:25which means he would
23:26have been dealing
23:26directly with the ADA
23:29prosecuting his case
23:29to negotiate his plea deal.
23:32Are you saying
23:33that Vivian was the one
23:34to spill the Glasser secrets?
23:37I can't...
23:38I mean...
23:39Vivian can be ruthless,
23:41but conspiring
23:42with a serial killer
23:42to put another killer
23:43back on the street,
23:44that's beyond
23:44her usual dirty tricks.
23:46Is it, though?
23:47She was running
23:48for DA, unopposed.
23:49She had the job
23:50in the bag
23:50and then you jumped
23:51in front of her path
23:52and now she's got
23:52to get you out
23:53of the way quick.
23:54Desperate times
23:55call for desperate measures.
23:57The emergency hearing
23:58was just scheduled
23:59with Judge St. Clair
24:00to discuss the admissibility
24:01of Novak's confession.
24:02I bet a million dollars
24:03that Malcolm had
24:04that request teed up
24:05and ready to go.
24:07I'm going to lose Glasser
24:09and the DA's race.
24:10You don't know that.
24:12Judge St. Clair
24:12is a straight shooter
24:13and we're not done fighting.
24:15Yeah, you're right.
24:17I've got to swing by the office
24:18to work on my argument.
24:19Wish me luck.
24:20Good luck.
24:22I can't believe
24:22this is really happening.
24:24Glasser is on the verge
24:26of going free.
24:27Wesley will find a way
24:28to stop it.
24:30He has to.
24:35Officer Chen.
24:36Hi.
24:37I'm Joan Carpio.
24:39Martin was my brother.
24:40I'm sorry,
24:41but this conversation
24:42is not happening.
24:43You killed my brother.
24:44I want to know why.
24:47Yeah.
24:48I had no choice.
24:49Sergeant Chen,
24:50can you give us a minute,
24:51please?
24:57Ma'am,
24:58you can't speak to Sergeant Chen
25:00while this investigation
25:00is ongoing.
25:01My brother is dead.
25:04I need to know why he died.
25:10Martin was a good person.
25:13He was a kind person.
25:14He was not a killer.
25:15Okay, ma'am.
25:18I'm sorry,
25:18but you're going to have to get back
25:19in your car
25:19and you're going to need to leave.
25:26Look, I am sorry that that happened.
25:28How can she not know?
25:29The families of the Westview victims
25:30were briefed on the contamination
25:32and the subsequent violent behavior,
25:33but that briefing was limited.
25:35She needs to know
25:36that I was defending myself.
25:38She never saw her brother
25:40in that altered state.
25:41She can't imagine
25:41the killer he became.
25:42Well, then show her
25:44my body cam footage.
25:45I mean, it's right there.
25:46When that footage is disclosed
25:47is up to the department lawyers.
25:49This was obviously
25:50very upsetting.
25:52Maybe you should
25:53consider clocking out
25:54for the day.
25:55Stop.
25:56We're on the job right now.
25:57I don't need
25:58boyfriend Tim
25:59stepping in, okay?
26:00Good,
26:00because he's not here.
26:02As your watch commander,
26:03I am telling you,
26:04you can finish your shift,
26:05but you're not going
26:06back out on patrol.
26:08Okay.
26:11I've been going through
26:12the list of people
26:14or victims scammed
26:15over the last decade.
26:17It's long.
26:18How long?
26:19I mean, about,
26:20as of now,
26:21about 50.
26:22Yeah, a lot of them
26:23are elderly,
26:24but not exclusively.
26:25I mean, he conned anyone
26:27he could get his hooks in.
26:28I mean, the victims
26:29were left with nothing.
26:30That's a lot of people
26:31who wanted Charles Deacon dead.
26:32Mm-hmm.
26:34This is the woman
26:35who hired me
26:36to find her con man.
26:43Maybe we should
26:44take him back
26:44to the hospital.
26:45What's not helpful?
26:46No, uh,
26:47this is great.
26:48I'm going to,
26:49we're going to get
26:50that circulated.
26:51Um,
26:52Officer Juarez
26:52was just filling this in
26:53on the victims' victims.
26:55I've run them
26:56against Deacon's
26:57aliases,
26:58and the most interesting
26:59one is Morgan Jones,
27:02a stockbroker
27:03from New York.
27:04He managed to use
27:05that identity
27:06to land a house
27:06in the Hamptons.
27:07A 17-year-old girl
27:08ended up dead
27:09in the pool
27:10while he was having
27:11a blowout party.
27:12Uh, Deacon was
27:13initially questioned
27:14by police,
27:14but by the time
27:15they learned
27:15he was the one
27:16that provided
27:17the drugs
27:17that killed her,
27:18he had disappeared.
27:19Who was this poor girl
27:20who met such a tragic aunt?
27:23Paula Leonardi.
27:24Of the Leonardi
27:25crime family?
27:26Yeah,
27:26I mean,
27:27her father is
27:28El Jefe,
27:29or whatever they call
27:30the boss of bosses
27:30in Italian.
27:33That's her?
27:33The one who hired me?
27:34Are you sure?
27:39Right.
27:41So what's the plan?
27:42Well,
27:43our plan is to
27:44dig deep on Grandma Leonardi
27:46so we can get enough
27:47for a warrant.
27:48Your plan is
27:49to go home.
27:50It's not bad enough
27:51I sound like a freak
27:52you would deny me
27:53the satisfaction
27:53of a vengeance
27:54of my tainted honor.
27:55Okay,
27:55nobody's denying
27:56your tainted anything.
27:58This is all my fault.
27:59I called the floor line
28:01and told her
28:01exactly where the man
28:02who killed
28:02her granddaughter would be.
28:04I must be involved
28:05in making things right.
28:06And you will be.
28:07It's just going to take
28:08a minute
28:09to get the warrant.
28:10But when we do
28:10and it's time to
28:11bring her into custody,
28:13I will definitely call you.
28:18You're relieved?
28:20Uh,
28:20I've actually got
28:21a food order coming.
28:22Um,
28:24uh,
28:25just text me
28:26when it arrives.
28:27And by the way,
28:28um,
28:28the stapler was broken
28:29when I got here.
28:46It's simple.
28:47I can't think of anything
28:48more prejudicial
28:49to the jury
28:50than to allow
28:50Harrison Novak
28:51on the witness stand
28:52to falsely confess
28:53to murders
28:54he did not commit.
28:55Your Honor,
28:56Novak possesses
28:56intimate details of crimes
28:58for which my client
28:58has been accused.
29:00Mr. Rivers
29:00is prosecuting
29:01the wrong man.
29:02Liam Glaser
29:03is guilty
29:04of those murders.
29:04I plan to prove it
29:05in trial.
29:06This morning,
29:06you are begging me
29:07to take a deal.
29:08Play deal sounds
29:09like a wonderful compromise.
29:10Resent the implication
29:11that I was begging,
29:12but, uh,
29:12the offer still stands.
29:13It is rejected.
29:14Oh, okay.
29:15Your Honor,
29:16Harrison Novak's testimony
29:17is probative
29:18to my client's innocence.
29:20The jury should be
29:21allowed to hear it
29:21and make up their own minds.
29:22Harrison Novak
29:23is a convicted killer.
29:24A convicted killer?
29:25Yes,
29:25claiming to have murdered
29:26more people.
29:27Look,
29:27Your Honor,
29:27Your Honor,
29:28bottom line,
29:29the confession's a lie.
29:32You can make that argument
29:33in court,
29:34Mr. Rivers.
29:34I'm allowing it.
29:35Thank you,
29:36Your Honor.
29:36No hard feelings.
29:38I know that you were
29:39involved in this somehow
29:40and I'm going to prove it.
29:42Your Honor,
29:43I've been threatened.
29:44Sir,
29:46the defense counsel
29:47has exhibited
29:48a shocking pattern
29:48of unethical
29:49and potentially criminal
29:50behavior throughout
29:51this whole process.
29:52So,
29:53watch yourself,
29:54counselor.
29:55Making accusations
29:55in my presence
29:56without a clear factual basis
29:58won't be tolerated
29:59and can result
30:00in contempt of court
30:01and possible sanctions.
30:03Am I interested?
30:04Yes, sir.
30:05Great.
30:09I spoke with a detective
30:10in the organized crime unit
30:12in New York.
30:12According to her,
30:14Sabina Leonardi
30:15is old school.
30:17Avenging her granddaughter's death
30:18would be considered
30:19a family obligation.
30:20Do we have enough to arrest?
30:22Well,
30:22given Randy's head trauma,
30:24his positive ID on Sabina
30:25won't pass muster
30:26with the judge,
30:27so we're pulling flight records
30:28trying to establish
30:29that she's here
30:30in Los Angeles.
30:31Sorry.
30:31Randy,
30:32can I call you back?
30:33You can,
30:34but I have exciting news.
30:36I've solved the crime.
30:37Meet me at the motel.
30:39You can prove
30:39Sabina murdered Deacon?
30:40Well,
30:41no,
30:42not yet,
30:42but I have a bold plan.
30:44I've invited her
30:45to meet me in my room
30:46where I will get her
30:46to confess
30:47and then hopefully
30:48get another stemple
30:49to the temple
30:49to end this accident nightmare.
30:51That's not bold.
30:52That's insane.
30:53Well,
30:53as my great-uncle
30:54used to say,
30:55where wood is chopped,
30:57splinters must fall.
30:59Sounds better in German.
31:01Okay, listen,
31:01you are the only loose end
31:03tying Sabina
31:04to the murder.
31:05You put pressure on her,
31:06they will kill you.
31:07Exactly why
31:08I alerted my good friend
31:09John Nolan.
31:10Better hurry up,
31:11they're gonna be here soon.
31:14Any available units
31:16in the vicinity
31:16of the Hollywood
31:17Premier Motel?
31:217 Lincoln 300 affirmative.
31:23I'm about four minutes out.
31:247 Lincoln 300,
31:25you were advised
31:26to remain at the station?
31:27Yes, sir.
31:28I didn't want to leave patrol
31:29without their supervising sergeant.
31:31What should I expect
31:32at the motel?
31:35Skip Tracer Randy
31:36in potential jeopardy.
31:37Establish a police presence
31:39in the parking lot
31:39waiting for us to arrive.
31:40ETA 10 minutes,
31:41do not engage.
31:44Why, yes, Randy,
31:46I had to avenge
31:46the death of my granddaughter
31:47by killing
31:48the evil man responsible.
31:53Why, yes, Randy,
31:55I had to avenge
31:55the death of my granddaughter
31:56by killing
31:57the evil man responsible.
31:58Come on in.
32:09Greetings.
32:11Where is the lovely Sabina?
32:19Oh, there you are.
32:20Please, come on in.
32:22Oh, maybe I'd rather be alone.
32:28What happened to your voice, Randy?
32:31We see, it's called
32:31foreign accent syndrome.
32:33You see, I sustained
32:34a blow to the head.
32:35Oh, maybe that cured me?
32:38Oh, what is that?
32:40Might you be able
32:41to hit me again,
32:42but this time
32:42a little harder.
32:44He talks again.
32:45Shoot him.
32:47That'd cure your problem
32:49permanently.
32:51This is your own fault, Randy.
32:53If you had just
32:54left it alone,
32:57I would have left you alone.
33:00Now,
33:00we're gonna take you somewhere
33:03and kill you.
33:11seven looking 300.
33:13I'm code 62415 mail.
33:15Start me another unit.
33:19Gentlemen,
33:20I'm gonna need to see
33:20those hands, all right?
33:22Stop moving
33:23and show me your hands!
33:26Stop moving
33:27and show me your hands!
33:27and show me your hands!
34:02I need an RA for a GSW.
34:05Police!
34:07Drop the gun.
34:08Show me your hands.
34:09Useless!
34:10Hands on the wall.
34:11Spread your legs.
34:13Ma'am!
34:15Give me a sec.
34:16I'm about to have
34:17a heart attack.
34:18Yeah, and I will call
34:19an ambulance if you do,
34:20but right now,
34:21I need your hands on the wall.
34:22Okay.
34:24Like this.
34:25Lean on the wall.
34:25Yes, ma'am.
34:26Let's go.
34:28Randy!
34:29Hey, you okay?
34:31Na ja,
34:31ich hab mich ehrlich gesagt
34:32schon mal besser gefühlt.
34:33Heiliger Schroppack!
34:34John Nolan!
34:36I've never been happy
34:37to be smashed in the brain!
34:38Oh!
34:39Ah!
34:40I have a headache.
34:42Yeah, let's...
34:42Let's go...
34:43Let's go get that looked at.
34:44Oh, okay.
34:45Hey, how many fingers
34:46am I holding up?
34:48Two.
34:49So you're fine?
34:50No, no, I'm great.
34:51Hey, what happened today?
34:54Hey, how's he doing?
34:56Wunderbar.
34:57Dr. Ashton thinks
34:58my brain bleed
34:58fixed my accent.
34:59That sounds serious.
35:01I'm hoping
35:02he won't need surgery,
35:03but we're closely monitoring
35:04for worsening conditions
35:05such as headaches,
35:06nausea, slurred speech.
35:07My speech is perfect.
35:09Listen,
35:10Schnecken erschrecken
35:10when they schmecken
35:11because it's a lot of
35:12Schnecken,
35:12Schnecken
35:13doesn't schmecken.
35:14I might order another CT.
35:16That's your call,
35:17but I'm pretty sure
35:19that's Randy's baseline.
35:21You disobeyed a direct order.
35:23The order was wrong
35:24and patronizing.
35:25I warned you this morning,
35:26don't push the failure.
35:28And I didn't.
35:29I was thrown
35:29as anyone would have been,
35:31but I handled it.
35:33You just didn't trust me.
35:34You make a good point.
35:37I know.
35:40And I know
35:41that you're just
35:42worried about me
35:43and wanting to protect me.
35:44I know that.
35:44But I wasn't listening
35:47and I'm sorry.
35:50I'm sorry, too.
35:52All right.
35:53So what do you need?
35:55You're not going to like this,
35:56but I need to talk
35:58to Martin Karpuse's sister.
35:59She deserves to know
36:00exactly what happened
36:01with her brother.
36:02Look, I mean,
36:03you know all the reasons
36:03why you shouldn't,
36:05but it's your decision.
36:09I am trying to be
36:10a good cop
36:10and follow all of the rules,
36:11but in order for me
36:12to be a good cop,
36:13I need to be
36:15a good human first.
36:17No matter what
36:17comes after that.
36:36Hey, where are the kids?
36:38They're in our room
36:39watching a movie
36:40eating too much sugar.
36:45Some more bad news?
36:46Well, the DA is dropping
36:47all the charges
36:48against Liam Glaser.
36:50The Novak confession
36:51was the final nail
36:52in the proverbial coffin
36:55for my boss.
37:01Okay.
37:07Okay.
37:08So we dig in.
37:09We go through the case
37:10with a fine-tooth comb
37:11and prove that Harrison Novak
37:13didn't commit the murders.
37:14We'll prove that Malcolm
37:15and Vivian were involved
37:16and then we forget
37:20my glass.
37:20Tomorrow morning,
37:23I'm going to really want
37:24that pep talk,
37:26but right now,
37:27I just want to get drunk
37:28enough to forget
37:29that Liam Glaser
37:30is currently being released
37:33from prison.
37:44What's going on?
37:46You're going home.
38:01Joan, thank you so much
38:03for coming in.
38:07I thought you weren't
38:09allowed to talk to me.
38:11I'm not.
38:13But if I wait
38:14for the investigation
38:14to end on the lawyers
38:16to work everything out,
38:16it'll be a year
38:17before you get the answers
38:18that you need.
38:19And after everything
38:20that your family's been through,
38:21I just can't go along with that.
38:24So we were attacked
38:29the moment that we landed
38:31at Westview.
38:33About a dozen people,
38:35including your brother,
38:36they chased after us
38:37and they were so deranged
38:40from this chemical exposure
38:41that they barely seemed human.
38:44I tried to hide in this tunnel
38:45but Martin, he found me in there
38:48while I was biting somebody else off
38:50and before I could react,
38:51he was on top of me
38:53trying to drive a knife
38:54into my chest.
38:54I thought that I was going to die
38:58and I almost did,
38:59but right before the knife entered,
39:03I managed to twist it away from me
39:05and it went into him.
39:12There was no mercy in his act.
39:16Like, there's no humanity.
39:17He wasn't there.
39:20And whatever it was that poisoned him,
39:22you know, it robbed him of that.
39:27I'm so sorry about what happened.
39:30But, you know, if I...
39:35I would be dead if I hadn't fought back.
39:40I believe you.
39:44Thank you for being honest.
39:46Yeah.
39:52I need to come in.
39:53I got fresh intel.
39:54How deep Everest's reach
39:55extends into the Pentagon.
39:57We need to compare notes in person.
40:00I'll be on the red-eye home.
40:02She set the trap.
40:04Now we see who follows her home.
40:24What the hell are you doing here?
40:27Myla.
40:28I can only imagine
40:30how upset you must feel.
40:32So?
40:34I brought donuts.
40:36It's my way of saying
40:39no hard feelings.
40:43Careful.
40:45Last conversation we had by this van
40:47got you demoted.
40:50Now,
40:51I am going to go
40:53and get my life back on track.
40:58You want the donuts or no?
41:02Huh?
41:04Is this your loss?
41:07Got jelly.
41:10Glasser.
41:13This isn't over.
41:35You want the donuts or non-none?
42:09Damn it.
42:15Damn it.
