00:00Previously on The Rookie.
00:01How's it going with Raj?
00:02Long distance is challenging.
00:03But his European tour ends next week.
00:05Is there so fun?
00:08As soon as you have something.
00:10Rita Sanchez, this is Bradley Worth.
00:11We work with the Democratic Party and we want you to run for district attorney.
00:14If you're not in 100%...
00:16I'm in.
00:16Now you're in the spotlight.
00:18And you will stay there until I find a way to hang these murders around your neck and lock you
00:23away forever.
00:25I'm not moving to D.C.
00:26John.
00:27No, I can't tear my life apart.
00:29Why are you blowing it all up like this?
00:31I'm trying to save our marriage.
00:33I didn't realize it was in jeopardy.
00:35Bailey.
00:45I really don't see how candles and crystals are going to improve my love life.
00:50Rose quartz will open your heart chakra and treat your emotional wounds.
00:55Also, I'm picking up a black tourmaline crystal to protect Raj on his journey home.
00:58Oh.
00:59The tour's finally open?
01:00Yes.
01:00And I'm looking forward to a little, you know.
01:05Is there a crystal for straight up getting the lady?
01:07I mean, there are some pretty frisky gemstones.
01:10But mostly a crystal store is just a very calm and healing place.
01:13I paid you $500 for love spells that didn't work.
01:17With that attitude, I'm not surprised, Bach.
01:19Negativity is toxic.
01:20Give me my money back or I'm going to slap the taste out of your mouth.
01:24Sir, let's dial it back.
01:25Try it and I'll curse you.
01:26Go ahead, you crazy witch.
01:37You okay?
01:38Yeah.
01:39Yeah, there's nothing.
01:41All right, come on, buddy.
01:41I'm a cop.
01:43I'm telling you it's time to go.
01:45Sir, she stole $500.
01:47Come on.
02:02Hey, remember eight weeks ago when I bought the perfect Valentine's Day gift for Tim?
02:06Oh, you mean eight weeks ago when I started my morning commute?
02:09Seriously, how is it possible that L.A. traffic keeps getting worse?
02:12I don't know.
02:13Blame car culture or inadequate mass transit.
02:16Hey, but let's focus back on the baseball autograph by Fernando Valenzuela that I bought Tim
02:20and which I hid so well and now cannot find.
02:23How is that possible?
02:24I don't know.
02:25I think I re-hit it after a few tequilas.
02:30What do I do?
02:31I feel like he probably got me something amazing.
02:35Hey, can I call you back?
02:37Sure.
02:38I will just be here ripping up the floorboards.
02:40And I will still be in traffic.
02:44Hey.
02:44Hey, sis.
02:45I need your help.
02:46Let me guess.
02:46You forgot to buy Lucy a Valentine's Day present.
02:48No.
02:49I ordered one months ago.
02:50That full Korean skincare line that she loves.
02:52That's amazing.
02:53What's the problem?
02:55It never came.
02:55And they're not responding to my emails, so I need a last-minute present.
02:58What about jewelry?
02:59That's so cliche.
03:00I wanted to get her something special.
03:02You're cute, but women really love...
03:05Hey.
03:06Hi.
03:07Morning.
03:08Coffee.
03:10Happy Valentine's Day.
03:11Happy Valentine's Day.
03:13We're not doing presents right now, though, right?
03:15We're doing it tonight, right?
03:17No, no.
03:17Yeah, tonight.
03:17Yeah.
03:18After the fundraiser.
03:18Oh, yeah.
03:19Okay, good.
03:19Good.
03:19You are going to love what I got you.
03:21Oh.
03:22Same.
03:29What?
03:29I'm your face.
03:30Oh.
03:31An accident.
03:31Yesterday at the crystal shop, although Selena thinks it's the curse, I don't believe in
03:37that kind of thing.
03:38Oh.
03:39Oh!
03:41Oh!
03:42Oh!
03:43My eye!
03:47Who's the idiot that deployed pepper spray?
03:49Officer Pencer.
03:51Something about a curse?
03:53Enough said.
03:55By the way, I can't believe he volunteered to host Wesley's fundraiser.
03:59Oh, yeah.
04:00Well, Bailey's on ship the whole week at the firehouse.
04:02We're going through a bit of a rough patch.
04:03I thought, why not mask my Valentine's misery with a hundred wealthy strangers and a dozen
04:09middle-class friends?
04:11Smart.
04:12I'm assuming the move to D.C. is causing the strike?
04:15Yeah.
04:15And I've been trying to come up with a solution that would make both of us happy.
04:19But, you know, marriage is about compromise.
04:22Not always.
04:24Sometimes it's about one person making a sacrifice for the other.
04:29I did it.
04:30When Dominique was born and I chose to stay home, now that I'm back to work, Wade is clearly
04:36having a hard time with the time commitment of my new career.
04:40I never see her.
04:41It's like I'm a bachelor without the fun of being single.
04:44I was hoping you would tell me it wasn't so bad.
04:45Hey, I love my wife, and I support her, just like you support Bailey.
04:50I'm a hundred percent.
04:50But do I like falling asleep every night, waiting for her to come home from work, or
04:56canceling plans because she caught an extra ship?
04:58No, I do not.
05:01Still, she's happy.
05:02If she's happy, then I'm happy.
05:04Sounds like it.
05:08I'm happy.
05:09Yes, sir.
05:10Thank you for your perspective, sir.
05:18What about a watch for Tim's present?
05:21Does Tim need a watch?
05:23No.
05:24But he didn't need a signed baseball, either.
05:29It was instinct.
05:31You know, I mean, I saw the curse coming, and I just, like, can't...
05:34Behind miles.
05:35I know.
05:35I know.
05:37My job is to run towards danger, not use my partner for cover.
05:41I mean, how can I say I'm fit to be a cop when I'm clearly a coward?
05:45You...
05:46Selena, you are not a coward, and curses, they're not real.
05:51So just, you know, cut yourself a little bit of slack, okay?
05:53I think he's gonna be okay.
05:56Sir, I need to search you.
05:57Is there anything sharp in your pockets that can stick me?
05:59Nope.
06:02Be careful of the spiders.
06:04Ow!
06:04Ow!
06:04What the hell?
06:05What's wrong with you, man?
06:06I like spiders.
06:07Okay.
06:08Uh, sir, any more surprises in your pockets?
06:10No.
06:11Just the spiders.
06:12Okay.
06:12We'll finish this search at the station.
06:13Jump in, watch your head.
06:17You okay?
06:18Yeah.
06:19Yeah, just having one of those days.
06:22God, no need to think it's confirmation of the curse.
06:24Weird stuff happens all the time on the job.
06:26Oh, 100%.
06:28But maybe you should take an Uber back to the station, just for my safety.
06:38Call it in.
06:40Glasser murdered 10 people.
06:42They all deserve justice.
06:44Look, I agree, but we both live in the real world, where our first priority is taking the
06:47strongest case to trial, the one we know we can win.
06:49Okay, so you're just dumping Remy Darden.
06:51No.
06:51No.
06:52But for now, I have to hold back on prosecuting Glasser for Remy's murder.
06:55Look, the DNA buffet that Glasser created to contaminate his killing floor ruined any
06:59chance of using forensic evidence.
07:00Now, if you could have identified him in the basement, then...
07:02Yeah, but I couldn't.
07:03Neither of us thinks that I should have lied about that.
07:06Of course not.
07:06But it makes the path to conviction more difficult, which is why I need to be mercenary and only
07:09prosecuting Glasser for what I can prove to a jury.
07:12Hope you told his dad yet, because if he calls you as much as he calls me to check in...
07:16Look, I haven't, but I will right after the deposition.
07:19Is there anything I should be thinking of going in?
07:22Well, given the obstacles, the DNA issues, the other serial killer, the Patsy the Glasser
07:26used, you need to be perfect.
07:29Great.
07:30No pressure.
07:36You know, putting out fires is our job.
07:39I'm gonna have to report you for a union violation.
07:41So, any idea who set the swan on fire?
07:44Nope.
07:44What does it say the swan was floating alone on a lake when it ignited?
07:48They never saw anyone aboard.
07:51Gasoline and laundry detergent, which is basically napalm.
07:56This was set by a pro using a mechanism to delay the ignition.
08:02Here it is.
08:03You place a lit cigarette between the coils, cover the boat in napalm, and set it out on
08:08the lake.
08:08The arsonist has about five minutes to clear it.
08:12You want to know what makes this even more interesting?
08:14Our first call this morning was a fire at the Siegfried dry cleaners, with a coil that
08:20looked just like this.
08:22Swan and Siegfried, I mean, that cannot just be a coincidence.
08:26I'm not seeing the connection.
08:27Ah, the story of Swan Lake.
08:30The lovers wore a debt in Siegfried.
08:33What?
08:34We have culture in Texas.
08:35So, we are looking for a serial arsonist who loves the ballet.
08:39Um, why don't you see if you can get the security camera footage from the boathouse and see if
08:44anybody has a video on their cell phone.
08:45Yes, sir.
08:48Oh, happy Valentine's Day?
08:51I guess that depends on your definition of happy.
08:53Right.
08:55Why don't I, uh, meet you at the station and lend my arson expertise to your investigation?
09:02Sounds good.
09:04Hey, I'm almost home.
09:06I'm just a flight and a layover and a flight away.
09:09Yay!
09:09Maybe we could have dinner tomorrow.
09:11I mean, if you're not too tired and if you don't mind having a meal with a coward.
09:15Are you kidding?
09:16The whole reason I booked this planes, trains, and automobiles-ass return trip is so I can
09:19get back to you as quickly as possible.
09:22Translation.
09:23Estoy tan emocionado de verte.
09:25Oh, well then, hurry up and get your ass back here.
09:29Yes, ma'am.
09:30See you soon.
09:31Bye.
09:33Ah.
09:35See?
09:36Clearly the curse did not get on you.
09:38Please, help!
09:39Help me!
09:39No, no, no, no!
09:40I need help!
09:43Are you all right?
09:44Uh, a witch!
09:45She put a curse on me!
09:47Oh my God.
09:48I was there.
09:49What happened to you?
09:50Yeah, it all started this morning when I slipped in the shower and I chipped my tooth.
09:54I-I took a ceiling fan to the head when it spun off the mount.
09:57I was chased for three blocks by a pack of stray dogs.
09:59I lost my wallet, my phone.
10:02Please, I need to get this curse taken off me.
10:05Even if she did put a curse on you, it's not technically a crime.
10:09You should go tell the owner you're sorry.
10:11Beg for forgiveness.
10:12I mean, even offer her money.
10:13Anything to get her to reverse it.
10:14And the sooner, the better.
10:15Okay, okay.
10:17Yes!
10:17All right.
10:18Yes, yes!
10:34You okay?
10:36Yeah.
10:38Uh, yeah, it's just, it's just a guy was hit by a truck earlier and it happened like
10:44right in front of us.
10:45That's terrible.
10:46He'd been cursed.
10:47Never mind.
10:48But I saw it with my own eyes yesterday at this crystal shop I go to, no judgment.
10:53None given.
10:54I spent way too many hours looking at the lizards at my local pet store.
10:57Y'all got our hobbies?
10:58Right.
10:59Yeah.
11:00Well, the thing is, I-well, I was there when the curse happened and I hid behind Miles so
11:06it wouldn't get on me.
11:07And now Miles has had a run of bad luck and this guy is dead and I'm worried that Miles
11:10is next and it's my fault.
11:12I mean, I should have jumped in front of the bullet.
11:13I mean, the curse, whatever.
11:15The point is, my cowardice put my roommate in jeopardy.
11:19You've gotten two accommodations for bravery the last 18 months.
11:23No one can call you a coward.
11:25Yes, that's true, but how do you know that?
11:29Oh, um, I-I-I looked you up after our last case together.
11:35Not in a creepy way, I just...
11:37Um, hey, I-I heard there's some kind of big party going on tonight.
11:40You going to that?
11:40Oh, uh, it's-it's a fundraiser for, uh, Wesley's campaign.
11:44Oh.
11:45Oh, no, no, no, but you should-you should totally come.
11:47Oh.
11:47Yeah, you know, just like donate-donate bucks or something.
11:49You want me to?
11:50Yeah, it'll be fun.
11:52Okay?
11:52Yeah.
11:53All right, great.
11:53Um, looking forward to it.
11:55Okay.
11:56I'll see ya.
11:58Oh, man.
11:59Hey!
12:00Oh, no, no, no.
12:01Whoa, whoa, whoa, what happened?
12:02Oh, suspect had a pocket full of spiders.
12:04Turns out I'm allergic, but I slammed some Benadryl.
12:06Okay, no, Miles, we have to go back to the crystal shop and get the curse reversed.
12:10What?
12:10No, I can't.
12:11No, no, no, Miles.
12:12The guy she aimed it at is dead.
12:14Got hit by a truck this morning.
12:16Oh, okay, that's crazy.
12:18But I really can't go right now.
12:20Let's go to power through it.
12:21Okay.
12:24Detective Harper, you claim you were attacked in the Westview basement.
12:27I did not claim I was attacked.
12:31And did you see this person's face?
12:33No.
12:34Well, I appreciate the fact that you've been honest about that from the start,
12:37but it means that you ultimately decided my client was the attacker based on what?
12:42A feeling?
12:43No, other factors.
12:45My 15-plus years as a police officer, his physicality.
12:49His physicality?
12:49Aren't there millions of people in L.A. County with the same approximate height and weight?
12:53Asked and answered.
12:54Detective Harper could not definitively identify Liam Glasser.
12:58Well, I'm simply establishing that Detective Harper jumped to conclusions about my client's
13:01involvement without any evidence.
13:03That's a big swing.
13:04Do you want to lay foundation for that assertion, or should we just strike that now?
13:08Detective Harper, on the day that you first met my client at the Mid-Wilshire Station,
13:13did you subsequently follow him to his truck for a conversation at approximately 5.30 p.m.?
13:18I did.
13:19And what was the nature of your conversation with Mr. Glasser?
13:22I told him that I thought he was involved in the Westview murders.
13:26What specific and articulable facts landed you at that conclusion?
13:30I did not have any evidence at this time.
13:33So you just decided to find a way to frame my client?
13:35I resent that allegation.
13:38Did you tell my client, quote,
13:40I will find a way to hang these murders around your neck and lock you away forever?
13:45Unquote.
13:51May I remind you that you're under old?
13:53I'm aware.
13:55Yes, I did say that, but I didn't...
13:58Let the record show, Detective Harper answered in the affirmative.
14:03Find a way.
14:05Wait till the jury hears that.
14:09Good news.
14:10I got Harris to cover the back half of my shift
14:12so I can spend Valentine's night with you.
14:15And if we're too tired to work things out,
14:17we can have satisfying yet emotionally complicated sex.
14:21Uh, tempting.
14:22Not saying no, but we would have to do it in front of the hundred or so
14:25mostly strangers who are invading our house tonight.
14:29Wesley's fundraiser.
14:30Right.
14:31I forgot.
14:33I'm ready for my first arson 101 list.
14:36Oh, you don't look good.
14:38Oh, it looks a lot worse than what it really is.
14:40Although the, uh, spider bites, it's pretty bad.
14:43Okay.
14:45Well, in a fire investigation, we look for seven things.
14:49Do you have any idea what those are?
14:50What kind of accelerant they use,
14:52diffuse to light it,
14:53and, uh, all right, all right, um, five other things.
14:58Point of origins, burn patterns, fire behavior, forced entry, missing items.
15:04Correct.
15:05And when I put those factors through the arson database,
15:08Arnold McKenna's name popped out.
15:10Arnold's been a fire starter for the last 20 years,
15:13in and out of prison,
15:14including a stint that was two years ago last August.
15:17So what's his motive, other than really liking fires?
15:20Revenge, mostly.
15:21He burned down the home of a former employer,
15:24a carpet cleaner that stiffed him,
15:25and the car of an ex-girlfriend that he claimed cheated on him.
15:29So what, the swan did him wrong somehow?
15:30What's going on?
15:31Yeah, there seems to be a disconnect.
15:33The whole Valentine's Day element.
15:35I mean, has he set thematic fires before?
15:37No, I mean, it would be new for Arnold.
15:39All right.
15:40Well, let's go get him.
15:41Uh, how about you do that solo
15:43and let me give some medical attention to Miles?
15:46Yeah.
15:47Okay.
15:48How's the present hunt going?
15:49Uh, badly.
15:50You can't still be in the car.
15:52No.
15:52I am back in the car after a day of wrangling 17 hormonal preteens
15:57in an un-air-conditioned classroom.
15:59Oh, my gosh.
16:00Okay, um, so I'll try and be quick.
16:02Um, I remember Tim talking about this book
16:04that he used to read over and over again.
16:07It was his escape when things were bad.
16:09It was a sci-fi book, right?
16:11Yes.
16:12Do you remember the title?
16:13I want to get him a copy of it for Valentine's Day.
16:15Sorry, I don't.
16:16But I can picture the cover.
16:18It was this buff guy with a girl with ridiculous breasts.
16:22and they were fighting a tentacle creature.
16:25It took place on the moon.
16:26Okay.
16:27Cool.
16:27I could definitely work with that.
16:35No.
16:36No, no.
16:36That's not going to work.
16:37I need the full line.
16:39Cleanser, serum, toner, all of it.
16:41No, I didn't wait to buy a gift.
16:42I ordered it from Korea and it didn't...
16:45Okay, you know what?
16:46Can you attach me to the jewelry department, please?
16:50Yeah.
16:52I didn't do it.
16:53Every time there's a fire in this city,
16:55you always drag me in here.
16:57Well, it wasn't me.
16:58So just give me the details,
16:59I'll give you my rock-solid alibi,
17:02and I can get on with my day.
17:03Where were you this morning?
17:05Home.
17:06Alone.
17:06So much for rock-solid.
17:08You weren't near Echo Park Lake?
17:10A swan boat was set on fire.
17:12Nope.
17:13What about at 6 a.m.?
17:14There was a fire at Siegfried Dry Cleaners.
17:16Swan Lake.
17:17Cute.
17:18But it wasn't me.
17:19I hate the ballet.
17:20But you'd love a 1.7 to 0.3 ratio of gasoline to laundry detergent
17:26to create your accelerant
17:27with a sous-solid of orange juice concentrate
17:30to make it nice and sticky.
17:34Not like I patented that or anything.
17:37No, but you might have taught it to someone
17:38who's doing a little bit of Valentine's Day fire starting.
17:44Give us a minute.
17:50Hey, hey.
17:51What's going on?
17:52LAFD just put out a fire at the Romeo Bakery,
17:54and they found a half-burned mosquito coil at the scene.
17:57Well, it couldn't have been Arnold,
17:59which means he definitely has a protege out there.
18:01I'll get a court order to tap his phone.
18:03Whoever his student is,
18:05Arnold might reach out and give him an attaboy.
18:07We should definitely be putting eyes on everything
18:09and anything, Julietta Jason.
18:12Mr. Darton, how do you feel about the prosecutor's office
18:14declining to charge Liam Glasser
18:15with the murder of your son, Remy?
18:17What?
18:18We have a source to say
18:19as a district attorney's office dropped the charges.
18:23No, no, that's not right.
18:25No, Glasser killed my son.
18:27I was promised.
18:29Wesley Evers promised me
18:31that Glasser would pay...
18:34I was going to call home first thing this afternoon,
18:36but the deposition ran long.
18:38Gabriel Darton should not be hearing this
18:39from a reporter.
18:40Somebody leaked it.
18:42My bet's on Vivian.
18:43She sees you coming up in the polls.
18:45She's looking to take your legs out.
18:47By destroying your grieving father.
18:48She's a cold-blooded predator.
18:50That's the reason you're running in the first place,
18:52to bring empathy back to the DA's office.
18:55We need to put out a statement.
18:57I'll send you a draft in 20.
19:03So what's the damage from my deposition?
19:06Honestly, pretty catastrophic.
19:08If I call you as a witness to trial,
19:10Malcolm will have free reign to impeach your testimony.
19:13He will paint you as a crooked cop to the jury.
19:15I never, not once,
19:17stepped out of line on that case
19:18with regard to evidence.
19:19Yeah, but you let your emotions get the better of you.
19:22I just, I wanted to wipe that smart cough of his face.
19:24Okay.
19:27I screwed up.
19:28But Angela can testify.
19:30She, she was there for most of it.
19:31She's not the lead detective.
19:33And she's my wife.
19:35Which is just another way
19:36that the defense will highlight
19:37the prejudice against Glasser.
19:39Plus, if I don't call you,
19:41Malcolm will likely add you to his list.
19:43He'll put you up there as a hospital witness.
19:44It's a mess.
19:45And unfortunately, Nyla,
19:48it gets worse.
19:49As an officer of the court,
19:51I have no choice
19:51but to report your conduct with Glasser
19:53to internal affairs.
19:54If I don't make the call to I hate,
19:56Malcolm will.
19:57And then I get disbarred
19:58for covering it up.
20:03Yesterday was hoping you at peace,
20:06you've got your teeth all out to do.
20:13It's worth one million dollars.
20:16I miss this, huh?
20:19You, me, out laughing about our nonsense.
20:22Me too.
20:25Hey, I've been thinking.
20:27How would you feel
20:28if we designate one night a week
20:31as date night?
20:32That way, no matter how busy we each get,
20:35it's on our calendar.
20:37Oh, and why is this funny?
20:39I'm just appreciating the role reversal.
20:43For two decades,
20:45I wanted you to have
20:45a more predictable schedule,
20:47and so now the show is on the other foot,
20:49and I'm completely empathetic,
20:51but I'm also a little amused.
20:55Touche.
20:58Hey, stranger.
21:00Hey.
21:00You look like you could use a drink.
21:01That obvious?
21:03Tim might have mentioned trouble
21:04on the home front.
21:05You need a shoulder to cry on.
21:06I owe you.
21:07Oh, no, you don't.
21:08I mean, I appreciate the offer,
21:11but we're working it through.
21:13I think.
21:14I'm here.
21:15I'm here.
21:15Oh, God, we've really packed it in here.
21:17I could barely get in our front door.
21:19Hi.
21:20Hi.
21:20Wow, you look beautiful.
21:22So do you.
21:23Thanks.
21:26Happy Valentine's Day.
21:27Oh, I didn't get...
21:28I thought we weren't doing presents.
21:29I'm gonna go scope out the dessert table.
21:31Thank you for the beer.
21:33Okay.
21:38Good for a lifetime of cohabitation
21:40would be the noon till death do us part.
21:43I don't...
21:44I don't get it.
21:44I'm not going to D.C.
21:46I'll call Russ in the morning and I'll tell.
21:48What?
21:49You have always been there for me, John.
21:52Through secret husbands,
21:54impetuous behavior,
21:55and emotional minefields.
21:58And over the last few days,
21:59I realized how hard it must have been for you
22:03to tell me no about D.C.
22:05And I also realized
22:07instead of listening,
22:09I took your head off
22:11and ran away from the conversation.
22:15You are the love of my life, John.
22:17I don't want to be anywhere you're not.
22:20I feel the same way.
22:25When were you gonna tell me
22:26you're going after Harper?
22:27Who now is not coming, by the way?
22:29Okay, I'm not going after her.
22:31I have a legal obligation.
22:32Which you didn't feel
22:33when I threatened to kill Elijah in his kitchen.
22:35That was a sanctioned sting operation.
22:37There's no gray area here.
22:39Angela, I'm trying very hard,
22:41very hard not to blame Nyla
22:43because she is our friend.
22:44But I might actually lose this trial
22:46because of what she did.
22:47Liam Glasser might walk free.
22:49So take a moment,
22:50consider who you're mad at right now
22:51and whether that's deserved.
22:54You two are so cute.
22:56Love the passion.
22:59Well, we are very
23:01passionate about justice.
23:02Mm-hmm.
23:04I am not having a good time
23:05with this campaign.
23:06Join the club.
23:10I can't wait any longer.
23:11No, look, I'm all for being adventurous,
23:12but this might cross a line.
23:14Get your mind out of the gutter.
23:15I want to give you your gift.
23:17Oh.
23:19Wow, okay.
23:20I really hope it's the right one.
23:26You said how much this meant to you.
23:28I tried to find you a new one,
23:29but they're out of print.
23:31I can't...
23:33Is this signed?
23:34Yeah.
23:34The librarian who helped me find it
23:36knows the author who lives in L.A.,
23:37and he was just so thrilled
23:39that the book meant so much to someone.
23:41Do you...
23:42Do you like it?
23:43True.
23:44I love it.
23:46No, I love you.
23:51It's incredible.
23:56I get my note?
24:00I'm sorry.
24:01Hmm?
24:01I'll be right back.
24:02Okay.
24:08Excuse me.
24:09I need her for a minute.
24:11I was having a connection.
24:13You can do better.
24:15She found it.
24:17Cool.
24:18You knew?
24:19Yeah.
24:20She needed help remembering the title.
24:22It's signed.
24:23It's amazing.
24:24I'm sorry.
24:24You knew she was going to give me
24:25the most thoughtful gift ever,
24:27and you didn't say anything?
24:28You told me to buy jewelry.
24:30I got earrings.
24:31She like them?
24:32I didn't give them to her.
24:33Not after this.
24:34It's not a competition
24:35to see who can get the best gift.
24:36Okay, you know what?
24:37It is now.
24:38I'm going to see if I can plan a trip to Paris
24:40in the next ten minutes.
24:41If she asks where I am,
24:42just cover for me.
24:47You made it.
24:49You kidding?
24:49Pretty girl asks you out to a party,
24:51you don't say no.
24:52You can buy a shoe
24:52and some pricey Corona.
24:54Wow, you look beautiful.
24:57Aw, thank you.
24:58Oh, whoa.
24:59No, sorry.
24:59Sorry.
24:59That's not...
25:00Selena.
25:01What?
25:02Hi.
25:03Oh, cool.
25:04I thought you were supposed to land
25:05until tomorrow.
25:08Well, I forgot that you gain a day
25:09when you're coming back
25:10and I'm nine hours off
25:12and, uh...
25:14Am I interrupting something?
25:15Yeah, of course not.
25:16I do...
25:16What?
25:17You asked me out.
25:18No, I did not.
25:19No, I said you should come,
25:21that it would be fun.
25:22And, well, I'm now realizing
25:24that could be misinterpreted,
25:25but it wasn't my intention to...
25:27Sorry, I'm too jet-lagged to follow this.
25:29Do I have anything to worry about?
25:30You do not.
25:31Great.
25:31I'm going to get a drink.
25:32Why don't you guys come find me
25:33after you work it out?
25:34Yeah.
25:35Uh...
25:36Gilmore, um...
25:38I am so sorry.
25:40Um...
25:41I feel like, um...
25:42I'm sorry.
25:46Excuse me.
25:54Thank you for coming.
25:55Now, I joined the DA's office
25:57because I believe that everyone,
25:58regardless of their means,
26:01their race,
26:01or their social status,
26:03deserves justice.
26:04Liars!
26:04What about my son?
26:09All right.
26:10You're going to fight your back.
26:14Who's this?
26:27This is a nightmare.
26:30You acted in self-defense,
26:31protected your wife,
26:32who didn't even protect him,
26:33by the way,
26:33but I love that you did it.
26:35Okay, I assaulted a grieving father.
26:36We need to make a statement.
26:37No, you are blowing up the internet,
26:40getting praise across the political spectrum.
26:42I...
26:42hell, Joe Rogan called you an American hero.
26:45Oh, this is Rogan's people.
26:47I'm trying to get you on the podcast today.
26:49Hey, this is breaking my brain.
26:51The people that usually hate progressives
26:52are settling my demographic.
26:54Whatever it takes,
26:55we're in this to win it.
26:56So you need to find a way
26:57to be a badass and a saint
26:59at the same time.
27:00Oh, perfect.
27:06These are beautiful.
27:08You opened them.
27:09Well, yeah.
27:12We kind of got lost
27:14in all of the excitement
27:15from last night,
27:16and I happened to find myself
27:18looking through your pockets,
27:20and...
27:22I love them.
27:24Okay, good.
27:25But just know
27:26it is a second-choice gift.
27:27I mean, I bought you every item
27:29about that overpriced
27:30South Korean-faced stuff you love.
27:32But it didn't ship in time.
27:33And then you
27:34got me the most thoughtful,
27:36present,
27:37in recorded history,
27:37and I'm so sorry
27:39that it's not a better gift.
27:40Are you kidding?
27:41Yeah.
27:41They match my necklace.
27:43These are incredible, okay?
27:48You know,
27:48I actually bought you
27:49a different gift first, too.
27:51Oh, yeah, yeah.
27:52The Fernando Valens
27:53with a baseball
27:53hidden behind the washing machine.
27:54You found it,
27:55and you didn't tell me?
27:56I didn't want you getting mad at me
27:58for criticizing your hiding spots.
27:59What?
28:00A greenhorn in the academy
28:00would have found that
28:01in, like, six seconds.
28:02But I love you.
28:09Name is Mandy Fisk.
28:11She did six months
28:12for arson last year.
28:13Harold McKenna
28:14called her last night
28:15at 9.34.
28:17You sure you're all right?
28:18Uh, yes, sir.
28:19Elevated door caught me good
28:20as I was leaving this morning,
28:22but I just need to walk it off.
28:28Hi.
28:29Can I help you?
28:30You sure can.
28:32Why don't you invite us in,
28:32and I'll tell you how.
28:38Clear the couch, carefully.
28:41What's this about?
28:43Why don't you have a seat,
28:45and I'll try to explain.
28:51The LAPD has been monitoring
28:52serving a phone
28:53that belongs to Arnold McKenna.
28:55He called you last night,
28:579.34?
28:58Oh, that's who that was.
29:00I heard static on the line,
29:02so I hung up.
29:03The call lasted for three minutes.
29:06Over the last 36 hours,
29:08several fires have been started
29:10that match Arnold's M.O.
29:11However, they've got a...
29:13bit of a romantic streak
29:14that really doesn't fit
29:15at Arnold's temperament.
29:17Yeah, he's more of a revenge guy.
29:24Look, Arnold's a creep.
29:25We were in the same halfway house
29:26when I got out of prison.
29:27He took a shine to me.
29:30Kept boasting about how powerful he was,
29:32thinking it was going to help him
29:33get in my pants.
29:34Wouldn't listen when I told him
29:35that I don't like boys.
29:37For real, he was obsessed,
29:38and I told him to get lost.
29:39But not before you stole
29:40his special method
29:41for starting fires.
29:42No.
29:43That's what the phone call
29:44was about last night.
29:45Someone is using his formula
29:47in setting fires,
29:48but it isn't me,
29:49and I told him that.
29:49It's not just you.
29:51You have a partner.
29:52You're wrong.
29:53Come on.
29:53Swan Lake, Romeo and Juliet,
29:55you're flirting with someone
29:57through fires,
29:58a call in response.
29:59So, who is your other half?
30:01No one.
30:02Baby!
30:03You gotta see this.
30:04The Juliet cake shop
30:05went up like a torch.
30:06Check out this video on my phone.
30:08Mm.
30:10I'd love to see it.
30:12Perhaps I'll take a look
30:13while Officer Penn
30:14puts you both in cuffs
30:15and reads you your rights.
30:19Watch your head.
30:29Hi.
30:30Thank you so much for coming in.
30:31I want to make this clear
30:32right up front.
30:33My client does not accept
30:34any legal liability
30:35for events that have occurred
30:36since her argument
30:37with Greg Clark two days ago.
30:38Oh, no.
30:39I'm not trying to arrest
30:40Rhiannon for anything.
30:42I want her to remove
30:43the curse off my friend Miles.
30:45To promise any kind
30:46of restorative action
30:47could be taken
30:48as an admission of guilt.
30:49No, please.
30:50Listen, it's my fault.
30:51Okay, I should have protected him.
30:52And I know you're a good person
30:54who wouldn't want her abilities
30:55to harm an innocent man.
30:56Not that they have or will.
30:58But this conversation
30:59is over.
31:00No, no.
31:01Okay, please.
31:02I'll pay.
31:03Call it a charitable donation.
31:05I'll sign whatever waiver you want.
31:08$1,000.
31:10Cash.
31:13Done?
31:14Yeah.
31:15I will send it after my shift.
31:20I'm sorry.
31:21It's not your fault.
31:23Wesley was just doing his job.
31:25Have you heard from IA yet?
31:27No.
31:27They'll need to review
31:28all the facts
31:28before bringing me in.
31:31But it would probably be best
31:33for us to keep things
31:35purely professional
31:36until this is all over.
31:40Yeah, I guess so.
31:44I set all the fires.
31:45Sally had nothing to do with it.
31:47Mandy, don't.
31:48Look, given we have her
31:49confessing to setting
31:50one of the fires
31:51and we have it on video,
31:52that's not going to stick.
31:54Please.
31:54I talked her into it.
31:55She's not even really a fire bug.
31:58She's just in love with me.
31:59And I took advantage.
32:01She doesn't deserve
32:01to go to prison.
32:03She lit the fires, Mandy.
32:04I can't just let her go.
32:06Look, you can always
32:07try your luck
32:07with the DA's office.
32:16Look, I'm not judging you.
32:18It's your money.
32:18But if this Rhiannon woman
32:20truly believed
32:20in her mystical powers,
32:21she wouldn't be jacking you up
32:22for a thousand bucks
32:23just to clean up
32:24her spray-and-pray
32:25method of cursing.
32:26Yeah, totally.
32:26But I have to save my house.
32:28Then I'm taking
32:29my crystal business
32:30elsewhere.
32:31Yeah.
32:35Oh, my God.
32:40Sir.
32:41Sir.
32:42Hey, are you okay?
32:43Is he okay?
32:46This entrance
32:47is what's cursed.
32:49Oh, my God.
32:51Oh, my God.
33:13Hey, let me talk to Nolan.
33:15I'm sure he'll let us
33:15take miles for a few hours
33:16to get this curse removed.
33:18I'm afraid to wait any longer
33:19to get this done.
33:37I'm sorry to get this done.
33:40What happened?
33:45Oh, my God.
33:47There was an explosion
33:48in this alley port.
33:49Jeez.
33:53Oh, careful.
33:54Careful.
33:55You got a huge piece
33:55of glass in your arm.
33:57No, no, no.
33:57Leave it.
33:57Leave it.
33:58Leave it.
33:58We gotta get you
33:59a tourniquet first.
33:59Right, right.
34:00Yeah.
34:00Okay.
34:01Okay.
34:02We have to help everyone.
34:04I need to find Miles.
34:05I need to find Miles.
34:06First, go to the kit room.
34:08Grab all the respirators.
34:09Yeah.
34:11Oh, jeez.
34:14I'm here.
34:15I'm right here.
34:22Oh, jeez.
34:42Oh, my God.
35:21Oh, my God.
35:24Nylon, Nylon, you okay?
35:26Yeah, I'm okay.
35:27Okay.
35:28There's masks in the box.
35:30I'm gonna go back there.
35:33Okay, you okay?
35:35You okay?
35:36Okay.
35:39All right, we're on three.
35:41Ready?
35:42One, two, three!
35:55I'll get the masks.
35:56I'll get the keys.
35:57Come on.
36:06Here.
36:08Can you walk?
36:09Come on.
36:11Take your way out.
36:20Help!
36:21Help us!
36:22Help!
36:24Come on!
36:31Help!
36:35Help!
36:35Oh my god.
37:05Oh, God.
37:07Oh, ha.
37:10Ah.
37:15Help.
37:25Oh.
37:30Cleo?
37:34Oh.
37:41Bradford.
37:45Bradford.
37:46Bradford, let's go. Come on.
37:55Put this on.
37:57Oh.
37:57Oh.
37:58Oh.
38:01Come on, get up.
38:03Oh.
38:12No.
38:15Oh.
38:15Oh.
38:22We can't stay here.
38:23I'm not leaving her behind.
38:31Hey, over here. It's Jan.
38:33We need to stop it.
38:43Move.
38:44Move.
38:59Move.
39:00Move.

39:20I, uh, I'm checking on a patient, Mandy Fisk.
39:24She was burned in that fire.
39:25Arnold McKenna, you're under arrest for use of a weapon of mass destruction and attempted murder times a thousand.
39:32And just so you know, Mandy and her girlfriend are gonna make it, but you're gonna go to prison for
39:36the rest of your life.
39:37Get them out of here.
39:42Hey. Hey.
39:43Oh.
39:45I thought I lost you.
39:55Thanks for the save.
39:58Oh.
39:59It's what we do.
40:00Hmm.
40:01Although it would be so great if we never had to survive a fire again.
40:06Tell me about it.
40:10Look who I found out in the lobby.
40:12James should be landing any minute.
40:14We need to talk each other down on the way over here.
40:16Thanks.
40:18I know you said we should keep it purely professional, but how about we start that tomorrow?
40:27Come here.
40:28Oh.
40:44Hey.
40:45How's he doing?
40:46Oh, he's okay.
40:48Concussion.
40:49Lots of blunt force trauma bruising, some second-degree burns, but it could have been a lot worse.
40:55But it wasn't, because you saved him.
40:58It was my fault he was in danger in the first place.
41:00Okay.
41:02Regardless, that's taken care of now, too.
41:05I gave Rhiannon a thousand dollars to lift the curse.
41:07She promised it's effective right away.
41:09Oh, my God.
41:11I will pay you back.
41:12Oh, please.
41:13I sold so much merch on my tour, I'm loaded.
41:16Are you, uh, huggable?
41:18Gently.
41:21Well, I have a newfound respect for firefighters, and you in generals, if I need it back.
41:26And I have an even greater respect for your stubborn-headed bravery.
41:31But, next time leave the fire rescue to the professionals, we dress for it.
41:35Yes, dear.
41:38You should go to DC.
41:39John.
41:40No, listen, I, I mean it.
41:41We are strong enough to navigate the separation, and you really want it.
41:46I took it personally, and it was never about us.
41:51You think I'll get bored of this in a year, and chase a new challenge back home.
41:55I'm sure I have no idea what you're talking about.
41:59Oh!
42:26Oh...!
42:39Damn it.
