00:25You
00:26Your timing is incredible
00:27Remember when I thought this job would be cool and sexy having second thoughts not really two days ago
00:33We landed on an aircraft carrier in the high seas, but today is not that day. How are you? Good?
00:39Just waking up after a blissful night of sleep
00:42Uninterrupted by your snoring. I am not the one who snores. Oh, yeah, that's right
00:47So no aircraft carriers today? No today is back-to-back meetings about the technical specifications for the next-gen
00:54tactical triage kits
00:57Very funny you call me later. Yeah, I sure will. It's a date. Love you. I love you, too
01:28You don't have clearance to be here
01:29Carl likes me Carl's gonna be writing parking tickets in hell after this be mad at me
01:34Don't take it out on Carl. You don't get to tell me how to process this Luna. You have a
01:38hots for another guy
01:39That is reductionist. What's that? SAT word? We've been married 20 years
01:43You cannot tell me that in all that time your eye never wandered not in a way that will result
01:48in you moving into a hotel
01:50L.A.'s full of pretty girls, but none of them are you, Luna
01:57I'm trying to figure out what to do. Quit your job. Never see him again. Say you're sorry. I got
02:01more if you need them
02:02I am sorry
02:04But it's not that simple and I will not quit this job
02:12Then I don't know what there is to talk about
02:18All right, let's get started so here's what I have to report from the overnight watch nothing
02:23Here's what I have to report from the brass
02:26Nothing, and here's what I have to report about today's forecast
02:29Nothing. Okay. I'm sorry. I mean if that's the case, then why are we still having roll call?
02:33Because the nothingness of it is alarming. Yeah saying things are too quiet as a cliche, but like most cliches
02:39There's a little bit of truth to it. Chen's right
02:41The odds of getting no instructions from up the food chain no activity from overnight that requires follow-up nothing
02:46actionable in today's forecast feels abnormal
02:49And we hate abnormal. This is all I have for you today. Keep your heads on a damn swivel and
02:54stay safe. That's it
02:59Thank you. There he is. Thank you. Hey, sorry to just drop by shouldn't you be in school school is
03:06a state of mind today
03:08I want to go to the school of John Nolan
03:10It's a professional development day
03:11And I want to ride along because you're thinking of becoming a police officer that and I'm making a short
03:16film and I need some dynamic police footage
03:18Ah
03:18Because you saved my life. I'm gonna say yes, but I'm gonna warn you patrol work can be unpredictable
03:24Honestly, we could be watching grass grow at the edge of a crime scene all day
03:27Or you could be involved in an epic car chase throughout the streets of los angeles with the gritty french
03:31connection vibe
03:31Hopefully at or near sunset or something equally cinematic
03:35Careful what you wish for dash. Where's the fun in that?
03:38You take this
03:41Savvy. Yep. Off we go
03:45It's gonna go great by all accounts ryan dearborn has turned his life around
03:50He's on the right medications and he's been clear and consistent about what glasser did to him
03:54He's a hail mary and we both know what the guy was arrested hiding under the floors of his rv
03:58He confessed to glasser's murders any new details only the killer could know because glasser groomed him inside westview
04:03Yeah, but at the end of the day
04:05It's still gonna come down to whether the jury believes a man who has struggled with severe mental illness over
04:08a family man a model citizen
04:11They'll believe because you'll make them believe that's sweet, but I do not have the upper hand here
04:18Sorry to interrupt
04:19Just wanted to tell you both good morning someone's in high spirits. Are you not I guess I'm just a
04:25Morning person or maybe I'm anticipating your latest star witness being another dud. I just really love watching somebody else's
04:31train wreck
04:31Well, see you in there
04:38Hey, how are you? Fine is the only answer I have time for
04:42Wonder if you can do me a bit of an odd favor. Are you gonna ask me to do something
04:45classified?
04:46No, literally, I'm gonna ask you to knock on the door and see who opens it. Remember the criminal Nolan
04:52and Garza flew back from vegas
04:54Everett right the military contractor who forced the aircraft to crash and escaped briefly escaped
05:00But yes, something's come up as we've been digging deeper into his criminal operation an unexplained
05:06Connection inside the Pentagon literally it's an office number that we can't get clarity on without making it known that
05:12we're interested
05:13And you want me to wander down the hall and see who's in it?
05:15Obviously act like it's the wrong office if someone opens the door. Okay, I'll do that after my next meeting
05:22What is the office number?
05:26I am not in your movie, right? Sorry
05:29It's just you have a jawline that screams leading man. Uh-huh
05:33So what time do things usually get crazy? I feel like most criminals sleep in
05:37Well, every day is different, but most of the people we deal with are not career criminals
05:41They're just ordinary citizens who make a bad choice in a high stress situation and it sounds like my mom's
05:46dating history
05:46Although she got better after she divorced my dad now
05:49They're all just losers not podcast ads for toxic masculinity. I'm sorry. That can't be easy
05:55It's fine sarcasm heals most wounds just wanted to be happy, you know
06:00Seven Lincoln 15 are you available for a wellness check out at the old west view hospital facility?
06:04Oh, that sounds boring. Maybe pass on that. Okay. I thought west view shut down last year
06:09It did they've had a remediation crew working there for the last six months to make it safe for demolition
06:14According to the supervisor. They haven't had contact with the crew since yesterday
06:18They sent another truck this morning and haven't heard back from them either
06:21This is 7 Adam 11 radio and cell traffic at that site are spotty on a good day
06:26It was a real issue for us during the glass or investigation
06:30Yeah, I can go check it out. No reason for you to go back there. You heard Bradford. We are
06:34being extra vigilant today
06:35It's a huge campus. It's better for two units to respond. All right. I'll see you there. Hey, you know
06:40We don't have to respond. There's zero judgment from this seat. I appreciate that you think I care about your
06:45judgment of me
06:49I was trying to be nice and yet that is the one thing that I am not evaluating you on
06:56You got something else to say no ma'am. Oh, so now you're lying to me. No ma'am
07:02It's just when you're in the mood you can start a fight in the empty house
07:14What is this place what remains of the westview hospital back in the 1940s and 50s it housed hundreds of
07:22patients many of them stricken with polio
07:24That's not even to mention the massive mental hospital complex that was recently condemned. Is it haunted?
07:30No, it's like a hard no, or is that like I don't believe in that sort of thing so
07:38Is that a dead body control we got a db
07:46Control this is seven Lincoln 15 do you copy
07:51Check your phone
07:53No service stay in the car, but this is the perfect stay in the car
08:06Is anybody else in your drive-in no, it's a ghost sound according to dispatch the original crew is 20
08:12people
08:12This could be the guy they sent in to check on them. I think they sent more than him. The
08:16passenger doors are wide open
08:22You're selling radio out, too
08:24Yeah
08:26Is that drone kid in your car
08:28Yeah, dash he wanted to go on a ride-along
08:31And you chose today
08:33You're in uniform. I thought you were detective the story for another time stay in the car. What happened to
08:38him?
08:42What the hell was that?
08:43Take the kid and drop back until you find a signal call for backup. We'll stay with the body right
08:48We will I mean yeah, we will
08:51Look out
08:59Easy
09:03What do we do?
09:08Oh
09:18What do we do? Do we shoot him?
09:24Fall back
09:30Let's go
09:31Oh
09:57Where's dash?
09:58A
09:59A
09:59A
09:59A
10:00A
10:00A
10:00A
10:00A
10:01A
10:01A
10:21What's that look?
12:23Let's get a gun.
12:30Oh.
12:32Mr. Dearborn.
12:33Thanks for coming in.
12:34I wasn't sure what to wear.
12:36You look great.
12:38This is Malcolm Walsh.
12:39He represents Liam Glasser.
12:41Oh.
12:41I didn't realize...
12:42The law allows me to access evidence prior to trial in order to provide an adequate defense,
12:46which means I can participate in your deposition.
12:49Okay.
12:51No problem.
12:53But you're not gonna get mad if I tell the truth about your client, right?
12:57I promise.
12:58Only if you promise not to get mad at me for questioning that truth with vigor.
13:03Deal.
13:03All right.
13:04Do you recall confessing to the murders attributed to Liam Glasser?
13:07Yes.
13:08I was at the police station.
13:10And do you recall why you confessed?
13:12I was unmedicated at the time in the midst of a mental breakdown.
13:16A part of me believed that I did those horrible things.
13:19But now I know I didn't.
13:20So why did a part of you believe that you committed those murders?
13:23I was coerced into thinking that I hurt people during psychotic moments when I lost time.
13:28Coerced by who?
13:29Liam Glasser.
13:30Over the course of the next two years, he began to fill my head with details of murders he said
13:36I committed.
13:36Whenever I would waver, he'd threaten me.
13:39Are you saying that you made a false confession because he made you believe that you committed those crimes?
13:44Or because you were afraid of what he would do if you didn't?
13:48A bit of both?
13:50You have to understand, the voices I hear, the faces I see, they can be scary.
13:57But nothing terrified me as much as Liam Glasser.
14:06The look in his eyes when he told me what he did, as he described in minute detail what it
14:14felt like to carve a person up.
14:20It made my own demons pale in comparison.
14:23Listen, we should take a break.
14:26It's creepy in here.
14:29We have none of this in sugar land.
14:36Hello?
14:37Hello?
14:39Can you hear me?
14:43Oh, that is not okay.
14:46Not today, playboy.
14:48Playboy.
15:18Oh, that is not okay.
15:25It is okay.
15:30Hello?
15:32Testing, testing.
15:36Come on, signal.
15:45Come on.
15:49Oh, my God.
16:20Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
16:31Oh, come on.
17:14Oh, come on.
17:45Oh, come on.
18:15Oh, come on.
18:29Oh, come on.
18:35Oh, come on.
18:38Oh, come on.
18:44That was badass.
18:47And I got it on camera.
18:48Here.
18:50Sweet.
18:52Thanks.
18:53Here.
18:54Cuff him.
18:54Oh, come on.
19:05Oh, come on.
19:15Oh, come on.
19:32Oh, come on.
19:33Oh, come on.
20:01Come on.
20:02Oh, come on.
20:04Oh, come on.
20:05Oh, come on.
20:12Oh, come on.
20:17Oh, come on.
20:20Oh, come on.
20:36Whoa.
20:38Oh, thank God.
20:40Are you hurt?
20:40No, just terrified.
20:42Were you in the truck that came to check on the main crew?
20:44Yeah, with Hank and Gail.
20:47Well, the crazies caught him the second he got out of the truck.
20:50Just kept beating and tearing at him.
20:51I don't know what happened to Gail.
20:52I started running.
20:54But I'm safe now.
20:55Yeah, safe-ish.
20:56That's... thanks.
20:57There's not many of us here, and we can't get a signal out to call for backup.
21:01How is that safe at all?
21:02Because when the LAPD doesn't hear from us, they will send more people.
21:05I just have to keep you safe until then.
21:30Argy.
21:43Let's get out of here.
21:51Ah!
21:54Ah!
21:54Ah!
21:54Ah!
21:55Ah!
21:57Ah!
21:58Ah!
22:00Ah!
22:01Please action!
22:04Listen up all things!
22:08Our cause are coming!
22:14You won't come down!
22:18When you wish it will!
22:31Get!
22:46This way!
22:49Bingo! Faster! Faster! Faster!
23:28You won't come down!
23:44Can I help you?
23:46Oh, hi! Yeah, I was looking for a Colonel Radcliffe. I was told his office was here.
23:51No.
23:52Okay, there's no name on the signage, so who exactly are you?
23:58Sorry, I'm just looking for a little help here.
24:00Have you been in the office long? Maybe he used to be here?
24:04I can't help you.
24:07Okay. No problem.
24:21What happened to that?
24:22Something overloaded their limbic systems, forcing their bodies to produce massive amounts of stress chemistry, cortisol, histamine, cytokines.
24:28But they're wearing hazmat suits.
24:29Yeah, at the clean-up site where we've been remediating the Project Ultra Chemicals.
24:32But I heard they just discovered it wasn't the only area on campus that was contaminated.
24:36Where our crew was staging was also compromised, possibly with thallium and iophetamine.
24:40They were exposed to both of those in high doses over time?
24:43You managed to get a call out.
24:45I got a brief signal next door, but my phone got smashed.
24:49Where's Miles?
24:50I don't know.
24:51I hope he got out.
24:53Let's move.
24:55Let's move.
25:06Let's move.
25:09Let's move.

26:00Move.
26:02Move.
26:05Move.
26:05Move.
26:06Move.
26:20He managed to get a call out no, but by this point dispatch would have started this from units when
26:24we didn't check in right
26:27Right
26:36Arriving at Westview hospital campus. No sign who's missing. I've been in meetings or miles and Nolan
26:46Repeat you're breaking up. Oh
26:50Hold on we got movement
26:53Yeah

31:21I
31:21I
31:21I
31:21I
31:21I
31:21I
31:28I
31:28I
31:29I
31:31I
31:31I'm over here.
31:33Are you hurt?
31:36Lucy?
31:37No.
31:38I
31:39I
31:45I'm gonna have to ask you a few questions and then we will get you to the hospital.
31:50Okay?
31:52Did you fire any shots?
31:54No.
31:56Did you use deadly force against anyone else?
31:59Is there anyone still outstanding?
32:00No, it's just him.
32:03We got separated.
32:05Stop. This isn't a conversation, okay? I have to do this by the book.
32:08Because you use deadly force, I'm gonna have to take your duty belt and any other weapons you might have
32:12on you and book them into evidence.
32:14I wouldn't speak to anyone until you've spoken to your attorney and your union rep.
32:19Do you understand?
32:20Yeah, yeah.
32:23Oh,
32:25It's no one at heart.
32:27They're banged up, but they're fine.
32:29Campus is secured.
32:30We're code four.
32:31Okay.
32:32Now I put you into an ambulance.
32:33We'll get you to the hospital so you can get checked out before I take you to the station where
32:36your clothes will be bagged and be photographed from front and back.
32:39I know all of this.
32:40But you've never been through this before.
32:42You're in shock.
32:46Come on.
32:51Hey.
32:52It's gonna be okay.
32:54Okay.
32:56Sorry.
32:56It's gonna be okay.
33:01I know, I know.
33:02It's late.
33:03I'm finishing up now.
33:04You're not in trouble.
33:05It's crazy over here too.
33:06There was some kind of riot at Westview earlier.
33:08Harper was involved, but she's okay.
33:10A riot?
33:11How could there be a riot?
33:12It's closed.
33:12I don't know.
33:13I don't have all the facts yet.
33:14Something to do with the cleanup crew that got poisoned, but that's not why I'm calling.
33:18What could be more pressing than that?
33:20Dispatch alerted me to a call that came in.
33:22A caregiver from Hillwood Supportive Housing called 911 half an hour ago.
33:26Ryan Dearborn had an incident.
33:29What kind of incident?
33:30It's not clear.
33:32His room was trashed.
33:33There was blood.
33:33He might have hurt himself during some kind of episode.
33:37And now he's missing.
33:38Angela.
33:39I know.
33:39Look, he was doing so well.
33:40His testimony was strong.
33:42I mean, the deposition today was the first time that I felt hope since I learned what Harper said to
33:46Glasser.
33:47I know, but try not to panic.
33:48We don't know what happened yet.
33:49Look, whatever happened, Malcolm Walsh will use it to undermine Ryan's testimony on the stand,
33:53and I will be back at square one on this case.
33:58Wesley?
34:01What's wrong?
34:06Wesley?
34:07He's here.
34:08Who?
34:10Ryan?
34:12Are you in danger?
34:20I don't know what to do.
34:24That's okay with me.
34:26You don't have to do anything.
34:27Wesley, get out of there.
34:28Hey, Ryan.
34:29Ryan.
34:31You're safe here, Ryan, so why don't you put the broken glass down?
34:34No!
34:34No!
34:35No!
34:35I need every available unit to the DA's office, 6th floor, code 3.
34:39I'm never safe.
34:40Okay.
34:40They're in my head.
34:42I thought they were gone.
34:44But they're back!
34:46They're back!
34:47Okay.
34:48I can't imagine how you feel, Ryan.
34:50The nightmare that you've gone through, that you're still going through.
34:53I needed to stop.
34:55Okay.
34:56I understand.
34:57I want to help you.
34:58Nobody can help me.
35:01Nobody!
35:05I know you must feel that way right now.
35:11And I know how exhausted you must be.
35:16But you deserve more than this.
35:18You can have more than this.
35:21You are more than this.
35:24But I need you to put that broken glass down and let me help you, please.
35:32Just put it down.
35:34It's okay.
35:48It's okay.
35:48Hey.
35:49It's okay.
35:50We're okay.
36:03Are you okay?
36:05Yeah.
36:06Good.
36:06Because I'm going to kill you.
36:07Angela.
36:08You don't try to reason with someone who's in the throes of a psychotic episode.
36:11And when your wife says, get out of there, you get out of there.
36:14I'll do better next time.
36:15It's not funny.
36:17I was scared.
36:19Do they know what happened to him?
36:20Not fully.
36:21Doctor said that Ryan's pupils are massively dilated, like he did a huge dose of amphetamines,
36:25which would induce psychosis in a healthy patient.
36:27For a schizophrenic, it's like sending a wrecking ball through their brain.
36:30It doesn't make sense.
36:31He's in a managed care situation at the halfway house.
36:33A nurse administers his meds.
36:35And they could have made a mistake?
36:36And gave him speed?
36:37No way.
36:40Wesley.
36:40You okay?
36:41I came as soon as I heard.
36:42I'm fine.
36:43Thanks.
36:44It's tragic.
36:45He was doing so well today.
36:46Which wasn't good for your client.
36:49I don't know why that's relevant right now.
36:51Sure you do.
36:51Angela.
36:52All I'm saying is that Ryan Dearborn's misfortune is Liam Glasser's blessing.
36:57If you're implying I had something to do with this.
36:59I'm not implying anything.
37:00I'm putting you on notice.
37:01I will find out exactly what happened with Ryan.
37:03And if you had anything to do with it.
37:05I didn't.
37:06And I'd advise your wife to be very careful about making wild accusations in these litigious times.
37:13And I would advise you that the quickest way to end up in one of these beds is to disrespect
37:18her.
37:22Thanks for coming by.
37:24Of course.
37:25And again, I'm glad you're doing okay.
37:29Even if your case isn't.
37:34He did this.
37:35Maybe.
37:36But he's not wrong.
37:37We need ironclad evidence or he will sue us into poverty.
37:40If it exists, I will find it.
37:42I have no doubt.
37:44So, what exactly happened at Westview?
37:46Zombies, apparently.
37:49Oh.
37:56Thank you very much.
38:03Well, I hope you were satisfied with your ride along?
38:08No offense, but I can't exactly give you five stars.
38:10That's fair.
38:11You sure you don't want me to call your mom?
38:12I didn't spoil the look on her face when I showed her this footage.
38:15Listen, what you went through today could haunt you for a bit.
38:18I'm happy to recommend a trauma therapist if you need one.
38:21I appreciate that.
38:22And hey, thanks for putting my life in jeopardy and then immediately saving it.
38:25I guess that makes us even.
38:27Totally.
38:28I'll check on you tomorrow.
38:29Looking forward to it.
38:30And hey man, I'm telling you, jawline.
38:36Detective Harper said that I proved myself today.
38:39Really?
38:39I did not.
38:40I said that he did not embarrass himself.
38:44Ah.
38:44Well, it was almost six months before she told me that.
38:47You, um, heard about Lucy?
38:49Yeah.
38:50Lopez said she saw her at the hospital, said she's still pretty out of it.
38:53She's on her way here.
38:54She's gonna need her union rep to look out for her.
38:57I'll have her back.
38:58Everyone all right?
38:59In the most basic sense, yes.
39:02Your wife is calling me.
39:04I asked her to do a thing.
39:05No need to tell her about my day.
39:06I don't want to worry her.
39:07No problem.
39:08Go get cleaned up.
39:09Chin should be here in 20.
39:10Right.
39:12Hey.
39:13What'd you find out?
39:14Honestly, I don't know.
39:16The office has no occupants listed.
39:18A very unfriendly woman answered the door, which set off my spidey sense.
39:22I couldn't get a name, but I did see a special operations tattoo with the phrase,
39:27Ego in numicus.
39:29It's Latin for I am the enemy.
39:32I made a drawing.
39:32I'll send it to you.
39:33Great.
39:34I owe you.
39:34No, you don't.
39:35I hope things are okay with Luna.
39:38Yeah, thanks.
39:39Okay.
39:40Okay, bye.
40:14Luna.
40:33Luna, I'm sorry.
40:35Did you say something?
40:36I did, but it's okay.
40:38We can go over it again later.
40:42I was doing funny things.
40:44I know. It did that for me, too.
40:47It'll get better when you get some sleep.
40:53Wait, John, um, do you know his name, Marty?
40:58I don't know his name.
41:02It's Marden.
41:04His name was Marden.
41:15Tea's ready.
41:19Yeah.
41:21You ready for bed?
41:23Yeah.
41:24No.
41:26I think I'm just gonna stay up for a little bit.
41:30All right.
41:33Hey, listen.
41:34Selena's right.
41:35It's gonna be okay.
41:38I know.
41:40I'll be in a bit.
41:42All right.
42:04You knew I'm gonna need you to come in.
42:16I don't know.
42:49I don't know.
