00:25I need to see Sergeant Grant.
00:30Sergeant Athena Grant.
00:35Sergeant, someone's asking for you.
00:37Who is it?
00:38He's over there.
00:40You know him?
00:42Never seen him in a day of my life.
00:46Sir, I'm Sergeant Grant.
00:48Can I help you?
00:50I'm here about a murder.
00:53All right.
00:54Who's the murderer?
00:57Mine.
01:06Wait a minute.
01:07We're ready up our RA unit.
01:08Get a medic down here.
01:09Now!
01:09Yes, Sergeant.
01:23Mr. Buckley.
01:24Dr. Hoffman.
01:26What are you in for?
01:27A car accident.
01:29I broke three ribs a few weeks back and couldn't get a follow-up with my GP.
01:32Any port in a storm?
01:34Yeah.
01:35All right.
01:35Let's take a look here.
01:41Tender, huh?
01:42Mm-hmm.
01:43I'm not seeing any bruising.
01:45What's your pain level?
01:46Scale of ten?
01:47Eight.
01:47Maybe even a nine.
01:48Let's see what we can do about that.
01:54Mr. Buckley, it says here you've been to three different doctors this month?
01:59Uh, yeah.
01:59Every port seems busy, so...
02:02It also says no provider in California treated you for broken ribs.
02:07No.
02:08Uh, I was injured in New Mexico and treated at a local hospital there.
02:12And did they prescribe opioids for that?
02:16I'm looking at the CURE's database.
02:19You know what that stands for?
02:21No.
02:22Controlled Substance Review and Evaluation.
02:24I have to consult it every time I prescribe a Schedule 2.
02:28You want to guess how many times your name's in it?
02:29Listen, I'm a firefighter.
02:31Yeah?
02:31I can't do my job if I'm hurting.
02:33You can't do it if you're high as a kite either.
02:35Doctor shopping is a form of fraud.
02:38Firefighter.
02:39Okay, I never take them when I'm at work.
02:41I'm not some kind of drug fiend.
02:44Okay? It's only been five weeks.
02:45And if you use opioids recreationally,
02:47it only takes five days to develop a dependency.
02:51I'm surprised this didn't ping earlier.
02:53It takes the system a time to catch up,
02:55but Mr. Buckley, it has caught up with you.
02:57You know, actually, I think I'm gonna get a second opinion.
03:00No, you won't.
03:00I'm flagging your name in the system.
03:04Okay, so what am I supposed to do now?
03:06Get some help?
03:11Now, careful.
03:12That thing stays with you for life.
03:14But a firehouse tattoo.
03:16I mean, that's classic, right?
03:18Look, look.
03:19Right here.
03:19Right here.
03:20One, one, eight.
03:21What if you get fired?
03:24Give me that grease gun.
03:27I don't know.
03:28I just need something that says I'm not a cadet anymore.
03:31You know, I've arrived.
03:32I'm grown.
03:34Harry.
03:35You left your night guard at Mom's again.
03:38I just couldn't wait till the end of the shift.
03:39But Mommy knows how you grind your teeth.
03:42So does the whole bunk room.
03:44Hey, I didn't see you there.
03:47I was, uh, under the truck.
03:52Right.
03:53How are you?
03:54I'm good.
03:55And you?
03:56Good.
03:57Good.
03:59Anything new?
04:00No.
04:01May.
04:01Well, sort of.
04:02Ready to roll?
04:03I don't want to get a parking ticket.
04:05It's a fire zone.
04:06I feel like this whole place is.
04:07Yeah, yeah.
04:08Uh, no worries.
04:08I'm done here.
04:11Guys, this is Ian.
04:12He's a nurse over at Presbyterian.
04:14Ian, this is my little brother Harry.
04:16And Robbie.
04:18What's going on, fellas?
04:19What's up?
04:22Hey, uh, you know, if you want to hang here with your brother and his friends, I can push
04:26the reservation.
04:27Oh, no, no, I'm ready.
04:28Let's go.
04:29Okay.
04:29Yeah.
04:30Well, it was great meeting, y'all.
04:32Big fan of what you do for the community.
04:33And don't forget to brush it.
04:35You don't want it getting smelly again.
04:43Who the hell was that?
04:44How am I supposed to know?
04:45She's your sister.
04:47Uh, aren't you dating her?
04:48What?
04:49No, you told me not to.
04:51I...
04:52I told you you could.
04:53If I changed firehouses.
04:56Bro, that was a quit, okay?
04:58Did you at least call?
05:01No, you didn't.
05:04I think you blew it, bro.
05:13Bernard Morelli, 58, lives alone in Angeleno Heights.
05:19I don't think we've met.
05:21Ben Hooks, major crimes.
05:24The case dropped in my lap an hour ago.
05:26Yeah.
05:27He dropped on my floor.
05:29Athena Grant.
05:30Have you, uh, talked to the doctors already?
05:33I did.
05:34Gonna be a day or two till toxicology report comes back.
05:38Supportive care till we know what we're dealing with.
05:40That thing's a poison?
05:42Hmm.
05:42Something rare.
05:43I've seen arsenic, mercury, lead.
05:46This ain't that.
05:47Got any leads?
05:49One.
05:50Last person he spoke to.
05:52Me.
05:53He walked into the station, asked for you specifically.
05:58Why?
06:02I've been racking the green.
06:04I never forget a face.
06:06And that name?
06:08Morelli.
06:09Doesn't ring a bell.
06:10Uh-uh.
06:10Not a jingle.
06:11So you spoke to him?
06:13No.
06:13He spoke to me.
06:14And then he vomited blood.
06:16What'd he say?
06:17That he was there to report a murder.
06:19His own.
06:21And I'm glad to believe it.
06:24They're talking about notifying his next of kin.
06:27We should do that.
06:29We?
06:30The man came directly to me.
06:33I would like to know why.
06:40Ian Bradley.
06:42All right, he's 30, which is like a decade older than May.
06:45Aren't you like 30?
06:46Not yet.
06:47And that's not the point.
06:48I mean, where's she meeting 30-year-olds?
06:49I think they met getting arrested together.
06:51What?
06:51Yeah.
06:52May got arrested at Presbyterian.
06:54He was this whole social justice thing, protecting a dying guy's rights.
06:57Can't compete with that.
06:59Can't compete with what?
07:01May's new boyfriend.
07:04Wait, hold on.
07:06You and May?
07:07Yeah.
07:08They, uh, had an evening.
07:10Robbie never called her.
07:12Rob's?
07:13Not very chivalrous.
07:14That's not what happened.
07:15So now she's dating this new nurse from Presbyterian, Ian Bradley.
07:18Oh, new guy.
07:21Okay, go May.
07:22New guy?
07:23How new?
07:24I mean, it looks like he's only been a nurse for about...
07:26A year?
07:27Oh, he's 30.
07:28What's he been doing this whole time?
07:30Who's 30?
07:30The nurse at Presbyterian that May's dating.
07:33Oh, nice.
07:34Which one?
07:34Ian Bradley.
07:35I'm a pro football player.
07:37Damn.
07:38Let me see that.
07:40He ran a 4-4-40?
07:43Damn it.
07:46So, May and Robbie?
07:48We're an item, apparently.
07:50But then he ghosted her.
07:51Didn't even call.
07:52Look, I did not ghost her.
07:54Harry told me not to call.
07:55Bro, it was a quip.
07:57What are we quipping about?
07:58Robbie dumped me, totally ghosted her.
08:00Now she's dating some famous football players.
08:02And then Robbie still has feelings for her.
08:04Why did you ghost her?
08:05Hmm.
08:06Two seasons in the NFL doesn't make you famous, right?
08:09Well, she's more famous than you, so...
08:11I don't need fame.
08:12I'm a first responder.
08:13So is he.
08:14He's a nurse.
08:15That's a second responder.
08:17I can't believe Buck is missing this.
08:20Where is Buck?
08:22Anybody seen him?
08:36Okay, come on.
08:38Come on, you're good.
08:39You're good.
08:41You're good.
08:47Good job, guys.
08:48Good job, good job.
08:51Hey, Morelli.
08:52Do we have a word?
08:54About what?
08:55Your father.
08:58So, what do you do this time?
09:01He's currently in the ICU.
09:03The doctors think he might have been poisoned.
09:07Is he gonna be okay?
09:09It's hard to say.
09:11We're waiting for him to regain consciousness.
09:13All the doctors can do is supportive care
09:15until we know what's in his system.
09:20Well, um...
09:21Whatever it is, I just hope that it's slow and painful.
09:28I take it you weren't on the best of terms with your father.
09:33I haven't spoken to my father in years.
09:35Not since he walked out chasing a story
09:38and left me with my stage four pancreatic mother.
09:42I'm sorry.
09:44He wasn't.
09:46She died alone.
09:47You said he was chasing a story?
09:50He's an investigative journalist.
09:52I can't say I know his byline.
09:54Because he writes under a pseudonym, Chester Caulfield.
09:58Bit pretentious, but he said it was for his own safety.
10:01So he has enemies?
10:04Politicians, CEOs, criminals, and the cartel, the mob.
10:09I'm sorry, but if you guys are looking for who might want to kill my father,
10:13I've got your work cut out for you.
10:17Mr. Malloy, would you like an attorney present?
10:19I'm good.
10:20Nothing to hide.
10:21You bossed local 977 for three decades.
10:25When did you first meet Chester?
10:26At my office.
10:28Sniffing trash cans.
10:29Is that the same office where you're embezzled $2 million in?
10:33Union deals.
10:34That's his story.
10:35I don't know about you, but an accusation like that would piss me off.
10:39I moved on.
10:40Yeah, you were booted out.
10:41Right after he exposed that a city controller,
10:44you took kickbacks from phony nonprofits.
10:47Exposed? I'd say insinuated.
10:49His reports were full of omissions.
10:51It was full of emissions.
10:52You lied to the EPA about your benzene count.
10:55We're committed to the environment.
10:56You're an oil company.
10:58I'm a greenfluencer.
10:59You preached the truth about pollution.
11:01Yes. And skincare.
11:03Is that why you sold lip gloss with microplastics?
11:07It was a sponsored post.
11:09What's the big deal?
11:11Cancer?
11:11You had a personal vendetta.
11:13It was a witch hunt.
11:14That muckraker kicked every anthill he could find.
11:16Sooner or later, you get bit.
11:19If I wanted to kill the guy, I'd do it barehanded.
11:23They're all liars.
11:25He blew the whistle on every one of them.
11:28No wonder everyone hates him.
11:31Yeah.
11:32Sorry to interrupt.
11:33Those tox results are in.
11:34Did they find our poison?
11:36Morelli's urine tested positive for polonium-210.
11:40Sounds nuclear.
11:41Radioactive, actually.
11:43It's an alpha emitter.
11:45Cooks you from the inside out.
11:46Like a hot dog in the microwave.
11:48How would a person get their hands on some?
11:50This quantity wouldn't be simple.
11:53Small amounts are used in satellites and anti-static brushes.
11:56And of course, there's its best known use.
11:58Which is?
12:00Russian political assassinations.
12:06Everyone's spread thin under this.
12:07We're aware it's an emergency.
12:08Josh, what did the Montgrove ER say?
12:10They're backed up. Same as Presbyterian.
12:12I'll try St. Ray's.
12:13I have a call to experience some chest pains.
12:15Dispatch a BLS unit until the ER can take them.
12:17I can't. We don't have any RAs in service.
12:18Monitor symptoms and come and get me if it looks like it's a cardiac event.
12:21It's a no-go at St. Ray's.
12:23Congratulations, you just hit your first level zero.
12:25You're telling me that there are no ambulances because every ambulance in LA is stuck at a hospital?
12:30How is that even possible?
12:31The dark triad of spring break, flu season, and dodger dogs, all we can do is sit tight until the
12:35logjam clears.
12:36So what do we say now? 9-1-1, hold please?
12:38Worth a try.
12:39Why do I feel like this is all my fault?
12:41We field calls as we get them, just like any other first responder.
12:43You're not an air traffic controller and you're not God.
12:45No, I'm just the boss. Hey.
12:47Hey, we're fifth in line at Presbyterian with an open globe injury.
12:50Anything you can do to grease the skids?
12:52Yeah, I'm working on it.
12:55Hey, come on. What's the hold up? These people need help.
13:03What'd she say?
13:05She's a little testy.
13:06Level zero is not fun for anyone.
13:08And you never see it coming.
13:10All right, we're moving.
13:19Thank you for your patience, everyone. We're getting you through as fast as we can.
13:25Harry, and Robbie, right? I promise I'll get you in as quickly as can.
13:30What a gentleman.
13:32Should've called her, Robs.
13:369-1-1, what's your emergency?
13:38It's my son. He can't breathe.
13:40We just sat down to eat and it's like he can't catch us back.
13:43We're at Jim's Burgers on first.
13:45What's your name, ma'am?
13:47Jillian.
13:47My son is Micah. He's 10.
13:49He's getting over a cold.
13:52Oi, get up.
13:54I'm trying to talk.
13:55Is that whistling sound just breathing?
13:57Yes, I think his throat is closing up.
14:00Oh, God, Micah.
14:01It's okay. Stay with me.
14:03Does he have any allergies?
14:05No medical history?
14:06She was born with a laryngeal cleft.
14:08It's a gap between his larynx and his...
14:10His esophagus. What type?
14:11Type one.
14:12My old days.
14:13Doctors said we'd be fine without a surgery, and we weren't.
14:15And so he got a bad cold.
14:17Congestion's blocking his airway.
14:18I still don't have any units.
14:19If we don't get someone there in five, he could lose his life.
14:21We can call for mutual aid from Beverly Hills F2.
14:23It'll take 20 minutes.
14:25What's the nearest hospital?
14:26Six blocks away.
14:27So we have five minutes to get them six blocks.
14:29She's freaking out, Maddie.
14:30If she stays and does compressions, he might be able to make it.
14:33Yeah, or he won't.
14:34It's your call.
14:35Let Presbyterian know they're coming.
14:36Ma'am, hi, my name is Maddie.
14:38I'm the supervisor here, and I need you to do something for me.
14:40Don't do anything, please.
14:42He's turning blue.
14:43There's an ER just a few blocks away.
14:45I need you to get your son in the car and drive.
14:47Can you do that?
14:48Yeah, I can do that.
14:50Keep breathing, okay?
14:51Just keep breathing.
14:53It's okay, it's okay, it's okay.
14:55Okay, take care of Mrs. Davies, and watch out for straws.
14:59Pardon me.
15:00Hold on, Captain, I got one more form for you.
15:02All right.
15:03Thanks.
15:04Yep.
15:07He's entering ER, go ahead.
15:08This is Josh Russo with emergency services.
15:10We have a pediatric priority one coming to you now.
15:13No laryngeal cleft with stridor progressing to total obstruction.
15:16How far up?
15:17Two to three minutes.
15:18Coronado and Beverly, self-drive.
15:19They go right out of the exit and then left on Third Street.
15:22How many blocks?
15:23Four.
15:24You're doing great.
15:25Just keep driving.
15:26Uh, excuse me.
15:28I got a P1P hitting the door in three.
15:30Prep an airway kit.
15:33Oh, God, Micah.
15:34I know he sounds bad, but you have to ignore it, okay?
15:36Whatever you hear, do not look in the backseat.
15:38Okay, I'm looking at traffic and it's clear.
15:41Just focus on the road and you'll be there in no time.
15:44Leave, let them know you're coming.
15:45It's stopped.
15:46He's not breathing.
15:47Focus on the road, you're almost there.
15:49Micah!
15:50No, no, no, no.
15:51Micah, wake up!
15:54Jillian, are you there?
16:02Jillian?
16:02Jillian, are you there?
16:08Jillian?
16:09Jillian, are you there?
16:11Jillian?
16:12Jillian?
16:13Jillian, are you there?
16:14Jillian, I'm not gonna make you.
16:15What do we do?
16:15What do you mean, what do we do?
16:17Your pet's patient was in a crash on Beverly.
16:19Where's that airway kick?
16:22Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me.
16:25Yeah?
16:26How long until you're back in service?
16:32Oh, where's he going?
16:33I don't know, but he's fast.
16:35All right, let's go, let's go, let's go!
16:36Follow that nurse!
16:38Come on, let's go!
16:43You'll be all right.
16:51All right, Buck, let's get that man shut off!
16:53Robbie, Harry, de-energize the car!
16:55L-A-M-T, make way!
16:56Coming through!
17:00Stay with me, buddy.
17:02The antipane?
17:03Almost done.
17:04I've got you.
17:11Come on, kiddo.
17:27Come on, come on.
17:33Come on, kiddo.
17:34Come on, come on.
17:37Come on, kiddo.
17:43Come on, come on.
17:45Come on, kiddo.
17:46Bilateral ain't clear.
17:58Dispatch, we are on scene with your patient.
18:00He is stable and breathing,
18:02thanks to a very athletic charge nurse.
18:04You guys pulled this one off.
18:07Early.
18:08Blast that nurse, Bradley.
18:14When did he wake up?
18:15The attending said 40 minutes ago.
18:16Is he coherent?
18:18Yeah, I'm stubborn as hell.
18:20What did he say?
18:21I don't know.
18:22He'll only talk to you.
18:35Mr. Morelli?
18:39Sergeant Grant, thank you for coming.
18:43Of course.
18:44You're wondering why I asked for you.
18:47I have to admit, I'm curious.
18:49Have we met?
18:51Apart from defiling your desk, no, we have not.
18:54But I know all about you, Sergeant Grant.
18:58LAPD veteran with a storied career, not looking for advancement, who chooses to work the streets.
19:05And how do you know any of that about me?
19:08I even know you were the unnamed passenger who landed a jumbo jet on the 110 freeway.
19:12You were going to write a story about me.
19:15It was a good story.
19:17But I am not in the habit of exposing heroes who choose to remain anonymous.
19:23You weren't looking for accolades.
19:25I respect that.
19:26I know I can trust you.
19:30Have they told you what killed me yet?
19:32Mr. Morelli, you're not dead.
19:36Of course I am.
19:39There's no antidote or treatment for acute polonium-210 poisoning.
19:45I have a couple of days, maybe less, to see you put the cuffs on the one who's responsible.
19:54Mr. Morelli, I'm not a detective.
19:57You don't have to be.
19:59I'm going to tell you who did it.
20:01All you have to do is test the murder weapon.
20:05Murder weapon?
20:06Water bottle on my bike, locked up outside your police station.
20:11Somebody spiked it.
20:12And you say you know who?
20:14For God's sakes, don't share this with anybody until you get the results.
20:19Especially not that detective who was conveniently assigned to this case.
20:26Test the bottle.
20:29Polonium-210 carries a chemical signature.
20:32Every patch can be traced back to the manufacturer.
20:36And if I'm right, you will find a nexus with the name I'm about to tell you.
20:51Sergeant, would you care to explain to me why I just got a call from the crime lab telling
20:57me that the test results on my water bottle will be ready in eight hours?
21:00But that's good news, because they told me 12.
21:03What the hell is going on?
21:05Morelli, he thinks his assailant spiked his water bottle.
21:09So the lab is running tests to see if there are traces of polonium-210.
21:13When did he tell you this?
21:14When I sat down with him.
21:17There's some reason you didn't mention it to me?
21:20Uh, yeah.
21:23When I promised a dying man that I wouldn't.
21:26What are you playing at, Sergeant?
21:28I was just waiting for the test to come back before I shared this with you.
21:33Summit Towers.
21:35Constructed in 2019, but never finished.
21:39Yeah, I heard of those.
21:40The developers ran out of funds during COVID.
21:43Yeah, that's what they claim.
21:45But Morelli was about to tell the world something else.
21:47Oh, you think someone poisoned him because of an unfinished condo?
21:50No, not someone.
21:52Him.
21:56Nicolai Castor.
21:57You're familiar?
21:58Yeah, my kid's school has a wing named after him.
22:01He's a real estate mogul.
22:03And a go-between for Russian investors.
22:06Morelli was about to blow his financials wide open and prove that Summit Towers was never supposed to be finished.
22:12Why did someone start building a 30-story tower with no plan to finish them?
22:16To claim it as a loss, which Castor did.
22:19And then he laundered billions of dollars for his friends in Moscow.
22:23And then what?
22:23He went to the KGB playbook to silence Bernard Morelli?
22:27He says he has receipts.
22:29Polonium-210 has a chemical fingerprint.
22:31We can trace it back to where it was manufactured.
22:34And I'd be willing to bet money that is here.
22:37Polrock Nuclear Works in Glassoff.
22:40All in five.
22:42Nicolai Castor.
22:46So what do you think?
22:49I think I should follow up on all this.
22:52Okay. All right.
22:53Well, I'll go through Bernard's notebooks and we can start building our case.
22:57I'm gonna handle that too.
23:00Sergeant, I spoke to my captain.
23:01She's not thrilled that a patrol sergeant is tagging along on something as high profile as this.
23:09Tagging along?
23:10Yeah.
23:12Her words.
23:13You've been a great asset.
23:15Until I brought you a suspect that you won't touch.
23:18I didn't say that.
23:20It'd be smarter not to.
23:22School wings.
23:24Very expensive.
23:27Thank you for your help, Sergeant.
23:32Get yourself a detective shield next time.
23:48Hey.
23:49Hey, Eddie.
23:50Hey.
23:51It's a bad day when you gotta restock anti-diarrheals.
23:55Hi.
23:56Yeah.
23:58Um.
24:05Hey, I need your help with something.
24:09What's up?
24:14Trucks.
24:16What's your take on trucks?
24:19Pro?
24:20Oh.
24:22I'm thinking of switching it up.
24:25Yeah?
24:26What's wrong with your truck?
24:28I just, I don't really haul anything, so maybe it's a waste to have a truck.
24:33Mmm.
24:34I don't haul.
24:36I'm still a truck guy.
24:37I, uh, I think I'm a hatchback guy.
24:42You do not look like a hatchback guy.
24:45Hey.
24:45You look...
24:48terrible.
24:50Uh, no.
24:51I'm, I'm, I'm fine.
24:53No.
24:53That's not fine.
24:56Just, uh, a little food poisoning.
24:59You know?
25:00That bad sushi, I think.
25:03Yeah, I had that sushi.
25:05Hey, Eddie!
25:06Yeah?
25:06I think you left your phone in here.
25:08Your locker's ringing.
25:09It could be Christopher.
25:11Hopefully he didn't eat that sushi.
25:44Let's go, Buck.
25:45Look alive.
25:45Yeah.
25:50I'm so sorry, Bernard.
25:52I really am.
25:54I hoped I could bring you some justice today.
25:59Just know that I'm not giving up on this.
26:04It doesn't matter now, anyway.
26:08Maybe none of it ever did.
26:10I can't believe that.
26:12You have got to know that your work made a difference.
26:15I did it.
26:18For all the good I was trying to do,
26:22I hurt so many people.
26:25Burned every bridge.
26:28Pushed all my friends away.
26:32Abandoned my wife.
26:36Alienated my son.
26:40And now, who is here to mourn me?
26:44I know.
26:46Chester Caulfield might get a decent obit.
26:50But Bernard Morelli died a long time ago.
26:55Alone.
26:59You are not alone.
27:11Hey, hey, Jim.
27:13Buckley, what did I tell you about interrupting me
27:15while I'm doing after action reports?
27:18You need to fire me.
27:20I think a warning would be enough.
27:23No.
27:24No, you...
27:26You have to fire me for stealing meds from the rig.
27:29No.
27:39What did you take?
27:40Nothing but, um...
27:44Fentanyl.
27:45Almost.
27:48Buck, that's a felony.
27:49I know it is.
27:51And I put it back.
27:53All of it.
27:54But only because the tongues went off.
27:57And I don't know if I trust myself to do that again.
28:01How long have you been using?
28:03Since the car accident in New Mexico.
28:08They prescribed me outscoding and I ran out.
28:13I need it.
28:16I needed it, Jim.
28:19Are you high right now?
28:21No.
28:22No.
28:23No.
28:23Never at work.
28:26Yeah, you look like you've been in withdrawal, what, a day or two?
28:31Have you told anyone else about this?
28:34Your sister, Eddie, anybody?
28:37Not just you, Captain.
28:42Look.
28:47Protocol says I relieve you of duty.
28:50Report this so the department can determine when, if ever, you come back to work.
28:54And if you face criminal charges.
29:01Or, if I keep this in house and watch you like a hawk and risk my own career.
29:07No.
29:08No.
29:08I won't let you do that.
29:10That's why you have to fire me.
29:11I'm not gonna let you off that easy.
29:15You came to me for help.
29:17And that's what we're gonna get you, okay?
29:21Starting tonight after I call the chief.
29:25It's not fair to the citizens of Los Angeles to rob them of such a stellar firefighter.
29:30And I'm hoping he'll see it that way, too.
29:36Jim, Jim, this isn't, this is not me.
29:38Look, I know, I know.
29:40You're not the first person to get hooked after an injury, okay?
29:47And given the timing, I can't say that I'm shocked.
29:50What, what is, what is that supposed to mean?
29:53Look, this week, it'll be one year since we lost Poppy.
30:01I, I didn't, I didn't remember.
30:05I must have blocked it out.
30:07Yeah, well, that's grief.
30:09You don't see it coming and then it sucker punches you in the face.
30:18Bernard, can you hear me?
30:22I have someone here who wants to see you.
30:31Hey, Ned.
30:33Peter.
30:35How did she talk you into it?
30:38She's a very persuasive woman.
30:42I'll give you two some privacy.
30:54It's good to see you, son.
30:58And why'd you leave?
31:01Me.
31:02Mom.
31:04She died in a bed just like this one.
31:07Looking like you are right now.
31:10Why?
31:11Just to write some story?
31:14I thought I was protecting you.
31:18I don't understand.
31:20There was always threats.
31:23Danger.
31:25If I, if I, I couldn't, I couldn't stay and keep you safe.
31:31You could have quit.
31:34I am so sorry, son.
31:38I really am.
31:50I'm sorry, too, Dad.
31:52It's okay.
31:54I'm gonna get what few new sounds ever get.
32:00An ending.
32:11Dad.
32:12Dad.
32:25We just need a moment.
32:36Did you say everything that you needed to say?
32:41I don't know.
32:43Maybe.
32:47Not really.
32:49Maybe he did.
32:52He was a brave man.
32:53Your father.
32:55Was he?
32:56He believed deeply in justice.
32:59I can understand that.
33:05Put your hands behind your back.
33:15How did you know?
33:17Before I came to see you, I got a call from the crime lab.
33:21We tested the water bottle on his spike.
33:26The one that you spiked.
33:28Educational levels of polonium-210 were traced back to your science class.
33:34You must have squirreled away for years to get enough for a lethal dose.
33:45Teachers are nothing if not patient, I guess.
33:51He really was a terrible father.
33:53Oh, yeah.
33:55I can see that.
33:56I can see that.
34:12I can see that.
34:15I can see that.
34:25You're part of the cycle.
34:26You ask questions, he deflects, then you feel guilty for doubting him.
34:30Now I'm wishing I would have questioned more after New Mexico.
34:41You're letting me win?
34:44Uh, yes.
34:46Sorry.
34:46I, uh, I got a little distracted.
34:51It sucks to have people touching your stuff.
34:54Yeah.
34:56It also just sucks because they're doing it because they don't trust me.
35:02W-would you trust you?
35:09Probably not.
35:12Looks like it's clear he wasn't lying.
35:14There's nothing to find here.
35:16Thanks for not making me look.
35:17There are just some things his sister doesn't want to know.
35:19Ralph.
35:20You think I made the right decision?
35:22Letting him recover here?
35:23Maybe he should be in a facility where he can be supervised.
35:25He has an ex-nurse, three paramedics, and two EMTs.
35:29I think he's good on supervision.
35:39Well, a little elevated, but that's not unexpected.
35:45Hey, w-what do you think the disciplinary committee's gonna do to me?
35:48I think they're gonna take it seriously.
35:51But also taking consideration that you reported yourself.
35:54You worked within chain of command.
35:57You in that chain of command.
36:00I know you see it as this thing that holds you back, but it's not.
36:04It's the thing that ties us all together.
36:08So that no one person has to carry the weight alone.
36:11Hmm.
36:16Yeah, I guess.
36:19You are not hidden.
36:21You are not hidden.
36:23There's never been a moment you were forgotten.
36:29You are not hopeless.
36:32But you have been broken, your innocence stolen.
36:39I hear you whisper underneath your breath.
36:48I hear your SOS, your SOS.
36:58I will send out an army to find you in the middle of the darkest night.
37:09Find it true.
37:10I will rescue you.
37:17I will never stop marching to reach you in the middle of the hardest.
37:28Find it true.
37:30I will rescue you.
37:36I hear the whisper underneath your breath.
37:46I hear you whisper you have nothing left.
37:56I will send out an army to find you in the middle of the darkest night.
38:06It's true, I will rescue you.
38:16I think this one is something that's a desire.
38:21I'm going to grab the drinks.
38:24Oh, hi, Robbie.
38:25How are you doing?
38:26Good to see you.
38:27Uh, you too.
38:32I think this is your order, but I'm pretty sure they screwed it up.
38:37I should be fine.
38:40Ian seems pretty cool.
38:42Yeah, I heard you guys did a case together.
38:44You saved a kid's life.
38:46Yeah, he did most of the saving.
38:48I just watched and marveled.
38:51I get the appeal.
38:55I hope you guys are really happy together.
38:59Together?
39:00Robbie, we're not...
39:01I am not dating Ian.
39:05Since when?
39:07Always.
39:08I mean, he's just helping me figure out this whole nursing school thing.
39:11You want to be a nurse.
39:12I know, it sounds crazy.
39:14No, it sounds perfect.
39:16I mean, I think you'd be great at anything.
39:37Hey.
39:39You're up.
39:41Hey.
39:41Uh, yeah.
39:43How long was I out?
39:45Well, you were asleep when I got here.
39:47And that was about five hours ago.
39:50Look, I'm sorry.
39:52No, don't be.
39:54You must have needed it.
39:56No.
39:57I mean, uh...
40:00I'm sorry about the anniversary.
40:04I'm sure the last thing you want to be doing today is babysitting me.
40:13We take care of each other.
40:16Every day.
40:17So being right here is exactly where I'm supposed to be.
40:25You know, he's, uh...
40:27He's been on my mind these past few days.
40:31And I know this is...
40:34Weird to say, but I feel like I know him now in a way that I didn't a year ago.
40:39He really loved you, Buck.
40:42But I think he would have wished that part had remained a mystery.
40:54So dispatch says we need a vehicular extraction.
40:57So we roll up expecting an accident scene.
41:00Instead, we find a girl locked in her car, and she can't figure out how to open the door.
41:04She couldn't pull the handle herself?
41:05Apparently not.
41:06So Bobby tries everything, right?
41:08He's shouting.
41:09He's gesturing.
41:11But she's freaking out, is not listening to him, and she has a full-blown panic attack.
41:15Bobby decides that we have to break the window.
41:17So we do.
41:18And then when he reaches in to help her out, she sprays him in the face.
41:22With what?
41:23Like pepper spray?
41:24An air freshener!
41:26Okay!
41:28Well, what did we miss?
41:30Somebody sprayed Bobby with air freshener.
41:33Oh, yeah.
41:34He smelled like lavender for three days.
41:38That poor kid in the car.
41:40She must have been traumatized.
41:41She was 26.
41:46You feeling better?
41:49Yeah.
41:50Yeah, I am.
41:51I really think I'm through the worst of it.
41:59Oh, it's midnight.
42:02We survived the year.
42:06Yeah, he got us through.
42:12To Bobby.
42:16To Bobby.
42:17To Bobby.
42:17To Bobby.
42:19To Bobby.
