00:00You live inside my heart, brown eyes in the line of fire, but you're worried when you're gone too long.
00:13Sorry, did you say something?
00:15No, you just were making a face.
00:18Everything alright?
00:18Yeah, yeah, totally.
00:20It's just, um, well, Raj wrote a new song about me.
00:24I mean, he's so talented and he's so beautiful and it's all...
00:28A little overwhelming?
00:30Yeah.
00:30I wish somebody was writing love songs about me.
00:32The three of you are so happy, my love life is as cold as a frosted frog.
00:36You're a young pen.
00:37There's plenty of time to find true happiness.
00:39Yeah, or learn to love being alone.
00:42Alright, let's focus.
00:43Just got out of a meeting with the brass and everyone is feeling the pinch.
00:47Recruitment numbers are down, retirement numbers are up.
00:49Bottom line, prepare to work more OT where the department manages staffing shortages and we launched this new recruitment drive.
01:01What's going on?
01:02We won!
01:03We won!
01:05We won what?
01:06The lottery.
01:08Shangri-La has been played every week for 12 years.
01:13We're rich, bitch.
01:14Smitty, out.
01:19When did you say this recruitment drive was?
01:22I'm gonna win all you like I know you want me to do.
01:30You should call in sick.
01:31Hang out with me on my day off.
01:33That would be a bad look on my first day back.
01:35Oh, it would be fine.
01:37I mean, do you even have an official job yet?
01:39No, and I'm trying so hard to be zen about that.
01:42My former position was perfect.
01:44It's my own fault for taking a leave and going to D.C.
01:47Any idea what Kevin Fossett's gonna give you?
01:49No, we're talking first thing this morning.
01:51So what are you gonna do today?
01:52I'm gonna find out how many naps.
01:54There's too many naps.
01:55My plan is to do absolutely nothing.
01:58Oh, you were gonna fix the drain in the shower.
02:00Absolutely nothing except fix the drain in the shower.
02:03Okay.
02:05Though I know it's not my hair in there.
02:07What was that?
02:08I said have a good day out there.
02:10Okay.
02:11Okay.
02:17I'm confused.
02:18I just voted for you.
02:20Why are you two going to work?
02:21Shouldn't you be doing the whole last-minute campaign and game?
02:24Rita wanted him to, but we talked about it, and...
02:26I'm gonna lose.
02:27Badly.
02:28Rita gave us the latest poll numbers and then quit.
02:30So rather than waste another minute on a failed campaign that neither one of us enjoyed
02:33for a second, we are first day of the rest of our lives in here.
02:37Okay.
02:37Well, I can't complain about having my bestie back on the job.
02:40Hey, why don't we do dinner tonight?
02:42Just the four of us.
02:43You're not gonna watch the returns?
02:45No.
02:45There's no point.
02:47I love you, loser.
02:49I love you, too.
02:52You would have made an amazing DA.
02:55Thanks.
02:57Bye.
03:01Vivienne is gonna fire him the second she wins, isn't she?
03:04A hundred percent.
03:06Yeah.
03:07All right.
03:07I'll be right in.
03:08All right.
03:14What's up?
03:14Hey, um, how would you feel about having a small gathering at your house tonight?
03:19Oh, what's the occasion?
03:20Wesley tanking the DA race.
03:22Is that cause for celebration?
03:23No, but it is a time for friends to get together and support each other no matter what.
03:28Also, it needs to be a surprise or else we'll just try and talk me out of it.
03:31Got it.
03:31Yeah, sure.
03:32We can have it here.
03:32Great.
03:33I will start a group chat.
03:34All right.
03:35Do you need me to...
03:36And you hung up.
03:38Here's what I love.
03:39The clear amount of industry and effort that you've put in.
03:43But?
03:46But it is a little, you know, narrowly focused.
03:50Join the LAPD.
03:51Be a badass hero.
03:52Protect the innocent.
03:53It's reflective of your lived experience, but it's not exactly reflective of the multitude
03:58that is the LAPD.
04:01Yeah.
04:02Great.
04:02You're in charge of staffing this up.
04:03What?
04:04Hold on.
04:04No, that's...
04:05I was not trying to...
04:08Fine.
04:10Penn!
04:11Forrest.
04:12You're on a special assignment today.
04:13What?
04:13Penn's still a rookie.
04:14Exactly.
04:15Who better to give insight to a recruit than someone going through training?
04:18Guys, get started.
04:19The paperwork's inside.
04:21Hey, how's it going?
04:22Good.
04:23Did the brass send you down here to help me with the recruitment drive?
04:25In a consulting capacity.
04:27And only if you need me.
04:28So say you don't need me so I can go back to work.
04:31Ah!
04:32Whoa, are you okay?
04:33Yeah, I'm fine.
04:35Smitty!
04:36What?
04:37You quit!
04:38No!
04:40I took an unscheduled day off while I briefly submitted my retirement papers, but that's
04:45all done now.
04:46Why?
04:47What happened?
04:47Oh, they say I didn't kick in for my share of the ticket so I don't get my share of
04:51the
04:51payout.
04:51But I'm always late with the wife's hander.
04:53They know I'm good for it.
04:55Ah!
04:55Oh, God.
04:56You are not okay.
04:57Smitty, make yourself useful and get the lieutenant down to St. Stephen's.
04:59No, no.
05:00I can drive myself.
05:00No, you can't, but I can call an ambulance.
05:02Or your wife?
05:03We can call your wife.
05:03No, no, definitely not.
05:05Let's go, Smitty.
05:08I do not want to hear about your lottery situation.
05:11No problem, but I do have a teletherapy appointment starting at 5, so you might overhear a bit.
05:21Good morning.
05:22Oh, good morning.
05:23Come on in.
05:24Thank you for being so understanding.
05:26I know I left you in the lurch when I went to D.C.
05:29All good.
05:30So, what do you have in store for me?
05:33Well, obviously, your old job is gone, but we do have a new class of paramedic recruits,
05:38and I want you to train one.
05:40You're giving me a rookie?
05:42I am.
05:43Oakley!
05:45Yes, sir?
05:46This is Bailey Noon.
05:47You'll be training with her.
05:48Pleasure to meet you.
05:49I'm eager to get started.
05:50I've read everything there is to read on triage medicine, not just in the U.S., but as far
05:54field as Mumbai.
05:55They published a fascinating study 12 days ago on emergency medicine and high-density populations.
06:00I've got to send you a link.
06:01Do you read Hindi by any chance, or do you need the English translation?
06:06Good luck.
06:09Officer in agony here.
06:11Bad 11.
06:12Oh, hell no.
06:13I changed my mind.
06:14I'm fine.
06:14I'm fine.
06:16Oh, what is going on?
06:17He woke up with a stabbing pain in his lower back.
06:20And it hurts when he pees.
06:21The Smitty!
06:22What?
06:22I could hear you cursing from outside the station bathroom.
06:25Oh, my God.
06:27Wait.
06:28You're that doctor.
06:29You're the one.
06:30Smitty!
06:31Get out of here now.
06:32Back to the station.
06:33Yes, sir.
06:34Good luck.
06:36I'm the doctor that what?
06:38What you don't know.
06:39I really don't.
06:40But you know what?
06:41That can wait till we figure out what is going on with you.
06:43I want a different doctor.
06:45I am the only one who's free right now.
06:47Oh, wait.
06:49Are you sure?
06:50Yeah.
06:52Okay.
06:55Please tell me you haven't napped yet.
06:58And that you haven't forgotten to fix the bathroom drain.
07:00No, of course not.
07:01I just called to see where you were assigned.
07:04I got a rookie.
07:06I knew you secretly wanted to be me.
07:08I've never trained anyone before.
07:10It's my first day back, and this kid is kind of green.
07:14So, are you looking for some tips?
07:16Would you come meet us, give a first blush eval, and maybe a few pointers?
07:22Yes, of course.
07:23But it's going to cost you.
07:25I should hope so.
07:27I got to go.
07:28All right.
07:28Looking forward to you hung up as well.
07:31A buttload of hemostatic gauze as requested.
07:37How can I help?
07:38Uh, watch first.
07:40I like things a certain way.
07:42A lot of people put their first-in bag on the gurney, but I like it in the outside compartment.
07:47That way I can grab the gurney while you grab the bag.
07:49Smart.
07:51You know, in early agrarian societies, they used to...
07:52Let's just focus on modern emergency medicine.
07:55Yeah, yeah, of course.
07:58But I find that understanding the history of things can give context to modern emergency
08:01medicine and elucidates the reasons why we do things the way we do today.
08:08All right, look, you can spot the losers a mile away.
08:11Don't waste any time with anyone you know won't pass the physical exam or the psych valve.
08:14Got it.
08:15Fill out a questionnaire, let them know that we follow up with a polygraph and a background
08:18check.
08:19That'll knock out at least a third of the duds.
08:21Okay, just so I can set expectations, I mean, what ratio of good candidates to losers should
08:26we expect?
08:29Does this background check include Florida?
08:32So I have been arrested before, but I wasn't convicted.
08:35Does that count?
08:35Defense.
08:36What was the charge?
08:38Be fouling the punch bowl at a company picnic.
08:41And thought any murder.
08:44And I thought to myself, why not take this white hot rage that I feel every second of every
08:50day and use it for something positive?
08:52Like curb stomping violent felons.
08:55Okay.
08:56Try MMA.
08:57Next.
08:59Morning.
09:01Heard about the personnel shortage and, uh, well, you guys need cops and I went back
09:06in, so how can we make this happen?
09:13Where did you go to school?
09:14Johns Hopkins for my master's in neuroscience.
09:17Well, actually it was a double master's in that and philosophy.
09:20Okay.
09:21Well, when we...
09:22I had a PhD in molecular biology at UCLA.
09:24Then I spent a year at Oxford doing medical research.
09:26That was around the time I started to think, maybe I should have some real life experience.
09:31Well, you've come to the right place.
09:33Okay.
09:34Rescue 53, respond to 314, 88 12th Avenue.
09:37Manage a stress, unknown description, unknown injuries.
09:40And there's no better time to start.
09:42Control, this is Rescue 53.
09:44Show us responding.
10:02Control, this is Rescue 53 on scene for the distressed male at 12th Avenue.
10:10I thought we'd be doing this over coffee.
10:12What better way to evaluate him than seeing him in action?
10:14Seeing him in action.
10:16Exactly.
10:16Chase, this is my husband, John.
10:18He's off-duty LAPD.
10:19Nice to meet you.
10:20He looks way more than distressed.
10:22Let's flip him over, grab his head, and keep him stable.
10:24On three.
10:25One, two, three.
10:29He's alive, but unconscious, probably from heavy blood loss.
10:38Oh.
10:39Gun shovels.
10:40That explains the heavy blood loss.
10:47Easy, easy.
10:49I'm pushing ketamine.
10:50We're trying to help you.
10:54Let's get him to St. Stephen's.
10:55All right.
10:56I'll mobilize LAPD.
10:57Radio's in the car.
11:04Get away from him.
11:06Flippin?
11:07Hit with the radio.
11:08Please don't hurt us.
11:10Get up, traitor.
11:10He can't answer you.
11:12I gave him a sedative.
11:13Then wake him back up.
11:14But that's not how medicine works.
11:16And who the hell are you, huh?
11:17I'm a doctor.
11:18I'm just doing a ride-along.
11:19No, can't stay here.
11:21Get Isaac in the car.
11:22You can't do that.
11:23That'll kill him.
11:24Then get him in the ambulance.
11:25You're going to keep him alive until we get what we need.
11:27I'm on it.
11:32Whoa, whoa, whoa.
11:32Hey, back up.
11:33They got it.
11:34What do you want to do with this guy?
11:35I need him.
11:36I'm just a paramedic.
11:37He's a doctor.
11:40All right, search him, and let's get gone.
11:42Meet us back at the office.
11:43Hands up.
11:49Let's go.
11:52Come on.
11:53Come on, come on, come on.
11:55Get in.
12:17you know the history of battlefield madison is truly fascinating until about 50 years ago most
12:21major wounds were guaranteed fatal do you want to die no not particularly shut
12:25up and drive what did this guy do to you anyway he stole our money isaac here was in charge
12:31of
12:31keeping it safe we were supposed to meet divvy it up now he's stashed it somewhere trying to keep it
12:37all for himself but that's not gonna happen well this money he stole assuming he recently stole it
12:42from someone else brink's truck bank what you ask a lot of questions shut up the only answer i care
12:48about is what exactly is your plan here three steps wake the trader up get him to tell us where
12:54the
12:54money is killing this man is barely stable what happens if the third step comes first then you're
13:00dying in this ambulance along with him i knew set still had dreams of being a cop but i did
13:08not
13:08think he would try again that midwisher yeah well he thinks he's catching us at a vulnerable moment
13:12he's right we need cops in the street now not in six months after the applicants finished training
13:16that technically all he has to do is pass his physical and he's back in uniform the physical
13:20is not my concern it is everything else listen set has changed i know it's hard to believe but he's
13:25committed to a different path you are biased pen because he saved your life guilty as charged but
13:32he deserves a second chance
13:49okay i'm ready whatever you guys need the only way

23:17oh yeah
23:17why
23:19oh
23:19uh just
23:20um
23:21i was watching a
23:23a new story about the uh... election
23:25what's up
23:26do you remember like a thousand years ago when this all started we talked about doing an announcement speech to
23:30lay out my full progressive agenda
23:32yeah
23:32before you chickened out
23:34well if i'm gonna concede this election i want to go out swinging
23:37i want everyone to know exactly what i believe
23:40can you give me an assist
23:41my speechwriter quit
23:42sure
23:43yeah i uh i sure can
23:44you know how about you follow me into my office stepping over here
23:47yeah
23:47what kind of things were you thinking about
23:48about changing
23:49i didn't really like what we did the first time around i just didn't get to nail it
23:52all right
23:54sure what's the verdict
23:55well according to the polygraph you told the truth about everything
23:58which was unexpected
23:59and proves that you've made a real effort to change
24:02okay great
24:05no
24:05no
24:06look the fact that you knowingly let us drive into danger failed to do anything about it
24:11and then lied to protect yourself is unforgivable to the department
24:14even though i
24:16sacrificed myself to save nolan's life what about that but does my loss count for anything
24:22honestly
24:22it's not enough
24:24even if you were to reapply to the fto program i would have to share those test results with internal
24:28affairs
24:28wait
24:31so this this whole thing's a setup i catch 22 i lie about the fire and i fail the test
24:37i tell the truth and then you're gonna use it against me i thought you were giving me a fair
24:41shot here
24:41look i'm sorry i can see that you are genuinely trying to be a better person but there is no
24:46coming back from what you did not here
24:53okay i understand
24:57thank you for giving me the opportunity to tell the truth
25:01i know that could not have been easy given what i put you through
25:04ah man i thought it would be enough for me to come in here and to
25:09say i'm sorry and to do the work and
25:12not be that guy anymore but
25:16i guess i finally understand that there are simply things i just don't get to have anymore
25:21there are doors that i close that
25:26that i'm never gonna reopen
25:29thank you appreciate everything you taught me i really do
25:37good luck ridley
25:39you walk out of here knowing you finally took responsibility for your actions
25:43and in my book
25:45that counts for something

33:06i'll tell you my life story
33:09go for it dude
33:10okay
33:13what
33:13nothing
33:14maybe it's such a bad idea it's actually good
33:24detectives from the pacific division have connected our kidnappers to a bank robbery in Santa Monica
33:30they made off with over two million dollars
33:31all that explains why they were so desperate to find it
33:34and why isaac was so determined not to tell them
33:36oh he took that secret to the grave
33:37which means that money's still out there
33:39hmm
33:39treasure hunt later
33:42we just have to give it back
33:44right
33:45that's less fun
33:46less fun
33:51the good news is that i'm alive
33:53what's the bad news
33:55well all things considered there is none
33:58the surgery was straightforward
33:59the bullet missed all your major organs
34:02thank god
34:03but this leaves us with the outstanding question
34:05was this a life lesson or a cautionary tale
34:08something tells me you already know the answer to that
34:10oh
34:11cautionary tale
34:12all day
34:13definitely a thinker
34:14and not a doer
34:16well personally
34:16i think you would have made an excellent paramedic
34:19you have more brain power than this entire hospital
34:22and just the right amount of bravery
34:24that means a lot
34:26coming from the legend
34:27that is bailey noon
34:29and your husband's pretty cool too
34:30i told you
34:32i'll keep it
34:33you know this reminds me
34:35of a fun allegory from plato
34:36it's much more compelling
34:38in the original ancient deep
34:39shh i think you should rest
34:40i'm fine
34:41i'll just catch a hooper
34:43you will not
34:45i will drive you to your hotel
34:48plus you promised me
34:49that we would have a chance to really talk
34:51so i am going to take you hostage
34:53until we do
34:55that's my girl
34:56for what it's worth
34:59i slammed the door in ashton's face today
35:04figuratively
35:05disappointing
35:08like i told you before
35:09he was just a temptation
35:11nothing more
35:13but
35:13it did shake me up a bit
35:16you have to admit
35:18that our marriage
35:19has been pretty static
35:20the last few years
35:21i would have said solid
35:22but
35:24i understand what you mean
35:26i
35:27also understand now
35:29that this was more than just a new job for you
35:32it was
35:33the beginning of something
35:36but my question is
35:37does our marriage have a part in this new beginning
35:40yes
35:42i just got my head turned around
35:44and
35:45i made a mess of things
35:47i want us to be healthy again
35:49i know we can't just
35:50click our heels together
35:52and make that happen
35:54we can
35:56if we do it in therapy
35:58yes
35:59i think

36:53oh if they think they can talk me out of suing
36:56by buying me barbecues and ice makers
36:58they are sadly mistaken

39:14they're about to play your speech you want to turn on the news
39:17no
39:18no i think that's in our rear view mirror now
39:21well the beam was gonna fire you anyways might as well speak your truth
39:25it felt so good to cut through the noise
39:27you know stop playing politics
39:30it also made me realize how little i'd accomplished at the da's office
39:34i mean i tried to change the system from within but without being the boss without having that power it's
39:39a losing battle
39:39so i think i'm gonna go back to being a defense lawyer
39:45i figured but there are a lot of cops who are gonna feel betrayed like you're siding with the enemy
39:50well there's only one cop whose opinion i care about
39:54no
39:55no
39:55yeah
39:56i'm all for it our sex life was unreal and we're on opposite sides
40:00yes it was
40:01oh
40:02okay
40:03hmm
40:04okay
40:05okay
40:08here's the thing i wrote the song because i think you're incredible and because i got really excited
40:13when i realized that selena rhymes with zebra and subpoena
40:16does it though
40:16close enough for art
40:18look i'm sorry that it made you feel self-conscious but a song is not a statement of truth it's
40:24an opinion
40:24i think you're the most beautiful woman in the world that does not objectively make you that
40:28okay one case you haven't noticed i am a painfully humble person
40:32i mean how can i not be i'm surrounded by the most amazing people on the daily
40:36i mean seriously
40:40take a look at that group of badass overachievers
40:42every single one of them a unicorn in their own way
40:46and you belong right there with them
40:49i won't be taking any arguments at this time
40:56all the speech
40:59uh everyone if you'd gather round
41:01it is official
41:02sadly wesley will not be the new district attorney
41:07that's okay
41:08but wesley clearly everybody in this room is fiercely proud of you
41:13for putting yourself out there and shining a light on what is wrong with our system and the ways in
41:18which it could be fixed if we were only collectively brave enough to try
41:22so
41:22we raise our glasses to you
41:25to wesley
41:27thank you
41:28i can't say that it was an enjoyable experience but man was it memorable
41:33we've all gone through so much together this year
41:35sometimes it felt like it was more than we could handle but it wasn't because we had each other
41:42it's safe to say that i have no idea what the future has in store but i do know one
41:46thing
41:46we won't be going through it alone
41:47we won't be going through it alone
41:48we won't be going through it alone
41:49because we're a family
