00:10We can't stay here!
00:11Drop back. Help the others get out. I'll hold them up as long as I can.
00:15You sure?
00:15Yeah, go, go. I'm right behind you.
00:39You are the manliest of men.
00:42Oh, you're just saying that because you want something from me.
00:46Not from you. For us.
00:48I fail to see how moving to D.C. for your job is for us.
00:52Happy wife, happy life.
00:54Look, I totally get that D.C. police would be a lateral move at best,
00:58and at this stage of your career, starting at the bottom, is a no-go.
01:02But going federal is a step up, right?
01:06You're saying the FBI is better than the LAPD?
01:08No. No.
01:10But there are multiple federal law enforcement agencies that would be lucky to have you.
01:15You're just not going to give up on this, are you?
01:16John, it's my dream job.
01:19Would you just investigate if there is a federal cop job that would excite you?
01:27Sure.
01:32It's not fair.
01:34Men's choices are simple.
01:36Blue suit or a gray suit, red tie or blue tie.
01:40The struggle on what constitutes dressing professionally for women is real.
01:44You look amazing in everything.
01:46How's the speech coming?
01:48Well, oh my God, what am I going to wear to your announcement?
01:50I'm running for the D.A., not the president.
01:53Be lucky if I get a blurb on page 12.
01:54That's a lie and you know it.
01:56Los Angeles district attorney is a race that generates national attention.
02:02I really don't have the right outfit for that.
02:03Can we focus on my speech, which I have to give in less than 48 hours and is terrible?
02:07Well, we're in Hollywood.
02:09Just get a punch up from a few A-listers, like the Oscars do.
02:12Yeah, but I don't need ozempic jokes.
02:14I need something that captures my ethos, who I am as a candidate.
02:18First of all, never say ethos again.
02:20You need to be relatable.
02:21A progressive family man who is also tough on crime with the backing of law enforcement.
02:25You're describing a unicorn.
02:27I can't please everybody, Angela.
02:29Right now, you're not even pleasing me.
02:32Seriously, what am I going to wear?
02:34I know.
02:34I'll make Harper go shopping with me on our lunch break.
02:38Right.
02:40But what about my speech?
02:42It's going to be great.
02:44It's going to be a nightmare.
02:45You don't know that.
02:47All right, fine.
02:48Maybe it will.
02:49Maybe your presentation on the biology of single-cell organisms is going to go horribly wrong,
02:54resulting in a major wardrobe malfunction and expulsion for emotional defenestration.
03:00You know I don't like public speaking.
03:02No one does, except for sociopaths.
03:04But you are smart and you are charming, and it's going to be great, okay?
03:08And no matter what, I love you.
03:12It's going to suck, but I love you too.
03:17There are so many things I love about living with you,
03:19but carpooling is tops because I get to sleep in for an extra half hour
03:22and finish my makeup in the car.
03:24You weren't sleeping this morning.
03:26Don't look so pleased.
03:28Why not?
03:28It was pleasing.
03:32Isn't carpooling great?
03:33I was just saying that.
03:35Sir, how are you doing this morning?
03:36I'll be better once the conversation shifts from eyeliner to assault and battery.
03:39Well, stop.
03:40We were practicing judo throws last night in the backyard for two hours.
03:43Your man card is fully punched.
03:47Now that's a car.
03:51That's Aaron.
03:52What's that?
03:53Hey.
03:55Now, Thorsten's family's loaded.
03:57Oh, hey.
03:58Despite that, he's become a half-decent cop.
04:00I heard that.
04:01You think I'm half-decent?
04:03Sergeant, did you get those flowers I sent you, right?
04:05Yes, they were lovely, but too much.
04:07No, no, no, no.
04:07You deserved them for acing the exam.
04:09Also, I heard you scored higher than Sergeant Bradford.
04:11That's not the point.
04:12And a word of advice, when you buy out half the floor, she'd make a boyfriend look bad.
04:16Go big or go home, right?
04:18Speaking of, you got to be Texas.
04:19Yes, sir.
04:20Mile spin.
04:21Aaron, you almost finished with the FTO program, right?
04:24Graduating next month.
04:25We'll see about that.
04:25Don't listen to him.
04:27So, hey, what are you doing here?
04:28Oh, Gray wanted to bring me in to talk about joining the Monica Task Force.
04:31Oh, that's so cool.
04:32Probably because you're partying the same big money but despicable universe as many elite criminals.
04:36Well, I like to think it's because he respects my work.
04:39But it could be both.
04:46I'm on track to graduate, right?
04:50Don't rush to call my fears or anything.
04:52What?
04:53About whether I'm on track to complete the FTO program on schedule?
04:55Oh, yeah, yeah, sorry.
04:57Yeah, I just got something on my mind.
04:58Um, I would say that as of this moment, you have sufficiently completed the necessary checklist in the prescribed timeline.
05:06But the next month will be crucial.
05:08Comforting?
05:09Not really.
05:11Anything I can help with on the distraction front?
05:13Oh, no.
05:16Was your former girlfriend fully on board with your dreams to move to L.A.?
05:20Yeah, totally.
05:22At first.
05:25We were in love.
05:26We thought as long as we were together, everything would work itself out.
05:30Feels naive now to think that somehow we could overcome wanting different things in life.
05:35Why, you thinking of the movie?
05:36No.
05:37Well, I don't know.
05:39Hey, how's it going with Raj?
05:42Good.
05:44Yeah?
05:45Long distance is challenging.
05:47But his European tour ends next week, so that'll be nice.
05:51All units, shots fired near Giacoma and Lincoln.
05:537-15 responding.
05:557-Adam-300 also responding.
06:04Control, we're code 6 along with 7-Adam-15 at shots fired scene.
06:08We have a sheriff's vehicle parked.
06:09Driver's door open.
06:11No sign of occupants.
06:12Copy that.
06:13We have not been notified that they are in the area.
06:14I'll check with their dispatch.
06:16Control, we have a door open at 1701 South Meyer Street.
06:18We are investigating.
06:19Send two additional units, please.
06:20Okay.
06:48So, let's go.
07:05I have an officer down over here.
07:08Yeah, me too, me too.
07:10Deputy, is the shooter still here?
07:11They took off.
07:12We were ambushed.
07:13I need an RA to my location, two wounded officers, one male 30s, second female 20s, both conscious
07:19and breathing.
07:20It's going to hurt like hell, but I need to stop the bleeding.
07:23Oh, man.
07:26Easy.
07:27What the hell happened here?
07:28Who are we looking for?
07:29A royal.
07:30Who's a royal?
07:31He's a CI.
07:32He said he had intel when he showed up.
07:34He started shooting.
07:38What it do, Luke?
07:40Come on, Lieutenant.
07:42Thanks for coming in.
07:43Ooh.
07:44Old school.
07:44I like it.
07:45He's all the apex predators Monica claims.
07:47She can help us take down.
07:48Yeah, so naturally you thought of me.
07:50Actually, it was my idea.
07:51This is my niece, Elena.
07:52She just graduated from Quantico, where she specialized in cybercrime and giving her uncle
07:56heart palpitations.
07:57He's being dramatic.
07:58You can't break the evasive driving course record without getting it up on two wheels
08:02at least once.
08:03Wait, look.
08:03If you're looking for speed, I got the 60th anniversary Lambo outside.
08:07You know, we can hit the track and maybe, never mind.
08:09For the last year, my team has been chasing rumors of a next-gen communication system, a
08:13private phone network used by the top 0.1% of heavy hitters and terrorist organizations.
08:18But because the clientele is so exclusive, the FBI hasn't been able to prove it.
08:23And then Monica made her immunity deal and provided us with the first proof that this
08:27network exists.
08:28That is literally a million-dollar phone.
08:31It is untappable and untraceable by law enforcement because it's run through a private satellite
08:35network.
08:36Our first goal is to get our hands on one, not with the intention of making arrests, but
08:39of secretly infiltrating and bugging the network so we can then spy on all of their calls.
08:45Unfortunately for them, I only had one client elite enough to possess a phone, and he and
08:51his phone were turned into a crater by a U.S. Reaper drone just outside Syria last month.
08:55This is all beyond cool.
08:59But, uh, why me?
09:01Have a look.
09:03Kadir Ghazmi, the biggest heroin trafficker in North Africa, and a man you were incarcerated
09:08with in Paris.
09:10I would like for you to reconnect.
09:17You done?
09:18Almost.
09:20Hey, uh, can you believe...
09:21Ten more seconds.
09:23Right.
09:24Sorry, it's just...
09:32Okay.
09:33Yeah.
09:34It's not good.
09:35Okay.
09:36It's trying to please everyone.
09:39It's full of platitudes and cookie-cutter aphorisms.
09:42Ten to one, your writer just had AI take a run at it.
09:45You should fire them and just write it yourself.
09:48I'm not a speechwriter.
09:49Will you take a pass?
09:50Uh, I mean, I'm flattered.
09:54But wouldn't your campaign manager have to sign off?
09:56I can't imagine they'd be thrilled that a community activist slash wild-eyed radical
10:01who believes in universal health care, basic income, and the inherent corruption of the
10:05justice system is who they want crafting your message.
10:09So more of a ghostwriter kind of thing.
10:12Look, will you at least write a few paragraphs, just as a jumping-off point for the social justice
10:16section of the speech?
10:20All right, but I'm not going to hold back.
10:21I don't want you to.
10:23Famous last words.
10:25Here we have a thoracic trauma, GSW, below the right clavicle, BP 150 over 99.
10:30We have no exit wound.
10:31Advise the trauma surgeon, we have a penetrating GSW subclavicular going to OR3.
10:36OR3, you want a carbapine for both?
10:38Her BP's 145 over 95.
10:39Let's get her to OR4.
10:43What happened?
10:44Uh, a CI by the name of Salvador Arroyo attacked two sheriff's deputies.
10:48You know it?
10:49Yeah, Arroyo used to run with La Pesadilla, but they kicked him out for being too crazy.
10:53Too crazy for a narco gang.
10:54That's saying something.
10:55Any idea why he decided to shoot cops?
10:57No, they said it came out of the blue.
10:59Lucy and Selena stayed back at the scene.
11:00Yes, ma'am.
11:01Waiting on TID.
11:02Good, reach out to the gang unit.
11:04Make sure we have the current address on file for Arroyo.
11:06We need to get him off of the street ASAP.
11:08Yes, ma'am.
11:10Everything okay?
11:11No.
11:12A mom from Lila's school just texted,
11:14congrats on having a certified kidfluencer.
11:16What the hell is that?
11:17Hell if I know.
11:20Oh, uh, okay.
11:22It seems that my daughter has a secret Clip Talk account
11:25that has just reached a quarter of a million followers.
11:28I thought you said she was afraid of getting up in front of her class this morning.
11:31She was.
11:32Well, she's clearly not an introvert.
11:35Oh, ho.
11:35Wearing a wire is too risky.
11:37Plus, you are not going in there to get evidence against Kadir.
11:40You're going to go in there to do the guy a solid.
11:42I am.
11:43We have to assume that he knows you're a cop.
11:46But our belief is that you owe him something for keeping you alive in prison.
11:52Yeah, he looked out for me, for sure.
11:54How does one become friends with a major narcotics trafficker?
11:58We bonded over a mutual love for Les Microbus Les Silences.
12:01MBS.
12:02It's an Algerian hip-hop group.
12:04That's it?
12:05You like the same band?
12:06And because of my natural charm.
12:07Well, the plan is for you to lean into your desire to make things right by him.
12:11So, you're going to warn him about an imminent law enforcement operation.
12:14Look, Kadir is a smart dude, okay?
12:17And without any specifics, he's going to get suspicious.
12:19That's why Agent Garza is going to burn an actual FBI investigation.
12:24I can't imagine the narcotics division is happy about that.
12:28They're not.
12:28But last week, I managed to convince the deputy director that getting years into this secret network is worth the
12:33pain, and they agreed.
12:35The FBI has infiltrated Kadir's New York operation and are poised to intercept a massive shipment landing in two days.
12:41You're going to put your career on the line by warning him about that.
12:44And once you do, we expect that he's going to use the encrypted phone to warn New York.
12:47Right, but how does that help you?
12:49You guys already said that you can't tap or trace the million-dollar phone.
12:53It's not about tracing the call per se.
12:55It's about isolating the unique frequency range the phone uses.
12:58We do that, and I can trace those frequencies back to the server farm that controls the network.
13:07What?
13:08Hmm?
13:11Nothing, I...
13:14Does this make sense to you?
13:16The scene?
13:17Yeah.
13:18Uh, I feel like I should say no.
13:20Only if you feel that way.
13:22Um, why don't you tell me why he feels wrong, and I'll check your math.
13:25Fair enough.
13:26Okay, so first, the car outside.
13:28Why is it on the curb?
13:29Why is the door open?
13:30They thought they were coming here for a friendly meet with a CI.
13:33Well, cops park on the curb all the time.
13:34But the open door is more troubling.
13:37Uh, maybe they left the door unlocked, and Arroyo went through it afterwards.
13:41Yeah, maybe.
13:42But, okay, so then there's the crime scene, right?
13:44They came in the same way that we did, but then clearly they split up when they got into this
13:49room.
13:49Yeah, like we did, which is how we found Colleen's blood over here, and Nolan found Ian all the way
13:54over there.
13:54I know, but why split up?
13:56It was a meet, not some hostile environment.
13:59Maybe he was using this meet as an opportunity to better train his rookie.
14:03You know, clear the space no matter what the expected threat level.
14:06Yeah, I mean, I guess that does make sense.
14:09Okay, so let's say that they did split up for legitimate safety reasons, right?
14:14And then Arroyo comes in from behind, opens fire, right?
14:17Now we're in a classic triangle position.
14:19We have Arroyo at the point.
14:20Then we have Colleen and Ian opposite of each other.
14:28The blood spatter.
14:30Exactly.
14:31I mean, if she was supposed to be getting hit from over there, then the blood spatter would be behind
14:37her.
14:37But instead, it's on the wall with the window as if...
14:39As if she was shot from her training officer's position.
14:43Oh, you think they're lying about what happened?
14:45I don't know.
14:46It could be that the limited statements we got from two wounded officers were unclear and led to some wrong
14:53assumptions on my part.
14:54But we don't know for sure without the body cam footage, and they did not engage them.
14:58We can't just take their word for it.
15:01They're cops.
15:03I wouldn't say any of this out loud until you are sure.
15:06No, I agree.
15:08I mean, yeah, so let's be sure.
15:10Excuse me.
15:11I'm busy.
15:12And soon to be busier.
15:13That's not what I need to be hearing right now.
15:16Hi.
15:17Sorry.
15:18Fighting a bit of anger.
15:19Shouldn't have skipped breakfast.
15:20Okay.
15:21Uh, I need a quick and thorough assessment at the scene.
15:24It's Knox and Mulan quick and thorough.
15:25Well, no one's asking you to do a rush job, but two cops have been shot, and their shooter is
15:31at large.
15:31So anything we can learn about what happened here will help us find him.
15:34Now, that means a diagram of bullet paths and blood spatter patterns plus rush ballistics.
15:39Can you do that for us?
15:43And then reach out.
15:45Is this your cell phone?
15:53Oh, you call as soon as you have something.
15:57Mm-hmm.
15:58Thanks.
16:04Hmm.
16:05What?
16:06Oh, nothing.
16:08I think I just need to reassess your innocence.
16:11Just saying.
16:15According to the gang unit, the only person Salvador Arroyo ever loved was his mother.
16:19She died six months ago, and he goes to visit her grave every Wednesday.
16:26Item 15, got a possible, headed to the Arroyo gravesite?
16:39We got him.
16:43Explain something to me.
16:44Why ambush two cops on the same day you have a standing appointment to visit the dearly departed?
16:48We're executive function skills.
16:50It's to say why psychopaths do anything.
16:52Fair enough.
16:52Then they're asking me this.
16:53You're giving the guys a psycho who just shot two cops.
16:55Why is that me?
16:56Don't we have a SWAT team charging them right now?
16:58Because we take care of our own business.
17:00And the element of surprise is often better than overwhelming force.
17:04Ever try to hide a SWAT team in a cemetery?
17:11Well, I'll tell you what I'm going to tell you.
17:16Police!
17:17Get down on your stomach.
17:19Arms and legs spread.
17:22I said get down on your stomach.
17:25Yeah, I heard you.
17:29But I'm not in the mood.
17:31This is sacred time.
17:32You got no right jamming me up here.
17:34What you did earlier made this necessary.
17:40All I did today was bump some Muggleys and eat some cereal.
17:44But not necessarily in that order.
17:46Last chance.
17:46Get down on the ground or we will take you down.
17:53Looks like you aren't the only one with backup.
17:58Control sent three additional units to my location.
18:00Code three.
18:01We got a problem.
18:02Not if you get back on your bikes.
18:04I miss the fun of fighting cops.
18:05Seriously, you don't want to do that.
18:06Listen, I don't know what you guys are all worked up about.
18:09But today is not the day to mess with me.
18:11So either pack it up and get out of here.
18:13Or we're going to brawl.
18:17One, two, three, go!
18:18Power!
18:19Power!
18:21Power!
18:22Power!
18:22Power!
18:23Power!
18:24Power!
18:25Power!
18:33Power!
18:41No, Luke!
19:18Remind me to not get in your bad side!
19:36Hey, how's it going?
19:38Uh, here to see Mr. Cosme.
19:40He's not expecting me, but I was in the neighborhood, so...
19:48You really think the jeopardy is minimal?
19:50Yes.
19:51Even if Kadir believes it's a trap, there's no upside in hurting the cop.
19:54And if we're wrong, the fast response team can be there in 30 seconds, so...
20:00Maybe 60.
20:01Munami, what a wonderful surprise.
20:03Heard you were finally in L.A., had to come through.
20:05I'm glad you did.
20:06You look good.
20:07Yeah.
20:08Please.
20:10So, what can I do for you?
20:12It cannot be a coincidence that I landed in Los Angeles a few days ago, and you show up
20:16on my doorstep.
20:17Look, I'm gonna be totally transparent with you, okay?
20:19You looked out for me when we were in prison, and I feel like I owe you.
20:23Munami, I told you you didn't.
20:24I know, but a man pays his debt.
20:26You kept the Algerians away from me, and you didn't ask for anything in return, so this
20:29is me repaying my debt.
20:30Well, I'm not gonna argue any further, but I'm not sure what you could do with that
20:34with Squeros.
20:35I'm a man with few needs.
20:37Look, I know we didn't talk about your business in La Santé, but I heard the rumors.
20:42And now that I'm a cop, look, I'm jeopardizing my career even talking to you.
20:48Get to it.
21:16Get to it, my friend.
21:18Hey, thank you for looking out for me.
21:24Perhaps our path will cross again in the future, huh?
21:26You'll have to forgive me if I hope that they don't.
21:29For both our sakes.
21:38okay where do we go from here now i go to work we spend every moment of every day being
21:44bombarded
21:44by signals we can't see all of our cell phones wi-fi and bluetooth devices are constantly
21:49communicating with cell towers and satellites sending data searching for updates over the last
21:53few days we've mapped all the signals going in and out of kadir's mansion now we're looking for a new
21:58one the million dollar phone we just need him to use it to make a call to new york it's
22:03a simple
22:04question where were you this morning between nine and ten i told you uglies and cereal right
22:10will your girlfriend attest to that wasn't my girlfriend that i was with
22:15you start asking questions about her my life gets messy you are facing two charges of attempted
22:20murder a jealous boyfriend is the least of your problems clearly i'm not the guy you're looking
22:24for because i don't attempt murder i get it done so whoever you're looking for it ain't me let's put
22:31a pin in that admission we have two witnesses who put you down on south meyer street at the time
22:36of
22:36the shooting they're lying they're cops think that absolves them hell cops lie more than most of the
22:43criminals i know and who are the two that say that i'm the shooter ian coleman and colleen white
22:48they're in surgery right now to remove the bullets that you put in them didn't happen
22:53i haven't seen coleman in a minute but you know what it doesn't surprise me that he's trying to pin
23:00this on me i'm not saying he's dirty but he ain't clean gotta be covering up some bad business he
23:06got
23:07into maybe with little miss rookie what does that mean he likes to get the young cute rookies under
23:14his wing and take him to that green motel off of ocean park and from the looks of it colleen
23:20look
23:20eager to play along that's all i'm saying
23:27guys arroyo did an ambush then how do you know we don't know but the facts are in line with
23:33selena's
23:34statement nothing at the scene supports their story being ambushed by another shooter the only
23:37showcases we found were consistent with the two guns the deputies were firing right and it's highly
23:42unlikely that arroyo was packing a police issued clock or using an old school revolver he could
23:46have picked up his brass which i admit seems out of character and not supported by the physical
23:51evidence yeah the number of empty shell casings corresponds exactly with the number of shots fired
23:55by the two deputies you think they shot each other and they made up a story about an ambush the
24:00blood
24:01evidence tells us they were shot 20 feet apart yeah and the blood spatter angle only makes sense
24:05if they shot each other okay but from what i remember you found colleen just a few feet from
24:09ian i think they got into an argument things got heated she jumped out of the car he gets out
24:14chases
24:14her into the building leaving the car door open once inside things escalate shots are fired now
24:20they're wounded behind cover and they can hear the sound of sirens coming so they make a truce and decide
24:25on the story picking the criminal coleman knew would force us into a fight hoping we'd kill him which would
24:30end all the questions great work looks like we're going to the hospital right after we pick up the
24:36preteen from middle school and put the fear of god in her happy that so uh what now oh we
24:44need you
24:44back at the lab we need those ballistics back asap right all right okay bye bye bye this man's got
24:52a
24:52sledgehammer for a right hand guy made me run you four busy depends what are we volunteering for okay
24:59listen up this is a classic good news bad news scenario the good news is that thanks to the
25:03digital prowess of agent flores and the silky smooth persuasion skills of officer thorson we've
25:07been able to isolate the unique frequencies used by an illicit phone network used by the top 0.1
25:11percent of expert criminals now the bad news is that the biggest concentration of those frequencies
25:16which indicates the location of the server farm that controls the network was traced to here
25:20now clearly there's no visible server farm in the middle of the la river which means what officer
25:25know what well that the servers are underneath excavated built in secret probably using one of
25:32the surrounding buildings as an access point most likely a warehouse okay well how big of a construction
25:38project are you talking massive and massively expensive i'm sure they brought in one of the uh
25:45cartels tunnel kings from mexico to build it okay well could you give us your best estimate as to
25:49which building might make the perfect access point if i was to undertake a construction project of that
25:54scale in secret i would target a facility that already housed construction equipment that way no
26:01one would blink twice at how many trucks were moving in and out of the site right right right
26:08bingo give this man a raise i'd settle for a spot on the team
26:14obviously you're going in yes but not to raid the place we need to be ghosts sneaking into the
26:19facility to plant the malware which will then allow us to tap the network and then we get the hell
26:22out
26:22of there without a trace well then you're definitely gonna need me without blueprints your entry team
26:28would be flying blind welcome to the yacht
26:36not only are you losing your phone privileges you are losing your laptop your tv your kindle even the
26:42damn microwave anything with a screen you are going to be living like a monk for the next month you're
26:47not listening to me i finally found something i'm good at you want me to throw it away just because
26:52you watch too much dateline oh boy oh oh i haven't watched too much dateline okay i have lived it
26:58i have
26:58seen what happens firsthand to kids who have too much of an online presence especially young girls and i
27:05am not going to let my own daughter become a statistic you sure you don't want me to dress i'm
27:11fine

27:22them
27:22the edits the graphics the content that's all me some people actually find it impressive i mean her
27:29tips on dressing for your color season are valuable for the longest time i thought it was an autumn but
27:33now i'm thinking that this is something she can dig into offline did you know that influencing is one of
27:37the few careers where women make more money than men oh let me guess the gender pay gap talking point
27:43worked real well on your dad no he doesn't know about the account either oh so you have successfully
27:51lied to both of your parents wow that that makes me feel so much better you know what now i'm
27:55wishing
27:56i did tell dad maybe he would actually listen to me why is my husband here
28:06what's wrong i need your advice i asked james to help me with my speech and he basically has
28:10me advocating to dissolve the lapd and empty the jails i'm sure it's not that bad

28:23later no we won't fun hi hi my husband has to talk to you about something good luck
28:47that's a hell of a lot of security for a construction supply company yeah just the
28:51right amount of security for the entrance of a half a billion dollar criminal enterprise yeah
28:56yes sir mike this is officer john nolan from the la pd he'll be joining you on the mission yes
29:01sir
29:01mike walker pleased to meet you likewise i stole mike away from seal team before technically it was the
29:05acl surgery that ended that ride but agent garza was kind enough to offer me a job near my kids
29:10who
29:10also joining us officer thorson and elena who despite my protestation successfully argued that
29:16her sole focus on the illicit phone network makes her the only quote-unquote badass ninja hacker
29:20qualified for the job so i'm sorry excuse me just one second yeah hey hi just checking to see if
29:28you
29:28learned anything on the federal cop front or if you checked out the apartment link uh no not yet it's

30:03tells
30:03me you're not exactly excited about the idea no it's i really love my job i just i'm not thrilled
30:11about the idea of starting the bottom again well then my answer is going to put your fears to rest
30:15the age cut off to join the fbi is 35. oh unless you have other government experience the same goes
30:20for
30:20all federal agencies and even if age wasn't an obstacle the odds of being assigned to dc right out of
30:25quantico non-existent so sir operation lights out ready at the staging area time for us to get in
30:31position copy that john is your head in the game yes sir good let's get this thing done

32:50place is gonna get
32:50in about nine minutes boss we got a big problem khadir must have flagged our infiltration into his new york
32:59operation as a possible compromise of the phone network they're bugging out after they upload the
33:03main operating system well can you plant them out where before they're done ride the upload to the
33:07next server farm i can try we gotta move fast
33:19which way
33:21which way
33:22which way
33:43which way

34:14you're screwed no no i am not listen to me very carefully we are going to raid the place okay
34:20with any luck they'll think that we're a step behind and that we got there too late to bug the
34:23upload you just need to figure out a way to bypass all the cameras between there and the warehouse
34:27copy uh that's impossible i sent you for a reason john it's time to pull your weight done mission
34:33accomplished get your asses out of there now what are you looking for all these servers create
34:39tremendous amount of heat that hot air has to be vented as cold air is pumped in to replace it

34:59yeah change your plans we're going in weapons up change your plans we're going in

38:33law enforcement officer why would i go first i'll give you some cover hey you're a good man
38:42oh man the road ahead is not easy but neither is the fight for justice we have over criminalized
38:50our communities and we have made policing a catch-all for societal ills that is simply not equipped
38:56or trained to handle so i'm announcing my candidacy for the district attorney of los angeles because
39:01i believe our justice system is fundamentally flawed and that the prosecutor's office should play
39:07a primal role in fixing it it was a good speech and he should have talked about racial disparities in
39:14sentencing but yes it was a good speech wait i'll go start dinner i am sorry wait you're not mad
39:29anymore
39:29no i still am mad but i could have handled it better i could have listened i should have listened
39:35and it
39:36occurs to me that the reason you didn't tell me in the first place is because you knew i wouldn't
39:41do it yeah okay so i'm i'm sorry you want to tell me you're sorry too no okay fine i'm
39:50sorry that i
39:52didn't tell you didn't ask you whether or not what i was doing was okay thank you so does that

40:00can keep doing it how about this we will sit down with a cyber security expert who will help make
40:05sure
40:05that you are being as safe as you can in this world full of predators and if he's satisfied then
40:12i guess i will be too
40:17i'm not moving to dc john no i i've been playing along because i love you and i want you
40:27to be happy but i
40:28can't tear my life apart here to do that i'm not asking you to yeah you are and i keep
40:34wondering
40:35why isn't our life here together enough for you i didn't realize you were so mad neither did i
40:43it's not that it's not enough for me i just want to go do this but why and don't say

40:51job is cool because so is being a firefighter and a soldier and all the other things you do in
40:55your
40:55spare time well something tells me you already think you have the answer to this i think you have
41:00a pathological need for movement pathological yeah and we have joked about it about how you can't sit
41:08still and how a day off for you means doing six different projects and i thought it was cute but
41:13it's not what are you afraid will happen if you stop moving if we let yourself be happy with what
41:20you have and where you are nothing i am happy i just got excited to go do this job why
41:27are you
41:28blowing it all up like this i'm trying to save our marriage i didn't realize it was in jeopardy bailey
41:44don't hang up this isn't a trap it's me going rogue tell your boss the secure phone network
41:51is no longer secure federal ears are listening now if he's smart he won't tell anyone and take
42:00advantage of the power vacuum that's coming no this piece of information is free of charge
42:08but what comes next that's gonna cost a fortune
42:22this killer's underestimating you good they won't even see you coming
