00:05Hard to say goodbye?
00:08I made so much of my life happen here.
00:12All those years with tomorrow.
00:14With Jackson.
00:17Now you.
00:20I feel like every important thing in my adult life happened in here.
00:23But now you're emerging from this chrysalis
00:27and becoming a beautiful butterfly.
00:30Too much.
00:31No, it's perfect, you're perfect.
00:39Sorry, am I early?
00:40No, no, we're just getting a slow start.
00:41Sorry, come on in.
00:43Hey, well, you can put some of your stuff in my room for now.
00:45Oh, that's all I have.
00:46What? Are you kidding?
00:48No, car life is all about minimalism.
00:50But if you have anything you want to leave behind, feel free.
00:53You know, I mean, Tim has a bed.
00:55Do you really need to bring yours?
00:57What?
00:59Sorry.
00:59Could you actually just, um, put that back?
01:04You are welcome to come visit anytime you want.
01:07Yes.
01:08Take care of this place for me.
01:16This is so gross.
01:17I don't even want to put this on my chair.
01:19I'm calling it.
01:21There's not enough dry cleaning the world.
01:23Why did that idiot have to throw his gun in the sewer?
01:26I know, as if murder wasn't bad enough,
01:27he had to go and ruin my favorite boots.
01:31What's that smell?
01:32That is the sweet aroma of a closed case.
01:35It smells like industrial waste.
01:37You know, sometimes I wonder what I'm still doing here.
01:39I'm rich, you know, like really rich.
01:42I don't need any of this.
01:44What are you going to do, huh?
01:45Retire, have lunch at the country club every day.
01:49I'd also do Pilates and see books and go shopping and travel.
01:54Being the boss isn't just about getting the work done.
01:57You got to play a smart political game.
01:59I know.
02:00I've filled in for you before.
02:01A day here or there is not the same.
02:06You are the watch commander now.
02:09No acting, no interim.
02:11You're him.
02:15Now, problem solving is never ending.
02:17Memos pile up fast.
02:18If you don't have a system, you'll fall behind.
02:20Understood.
02:21Yeah, that's it.
02:22Any questions?
02:23No, I'm good.
02:27That's my desk.
02:28Right.
02:31Sorry, it's going to take some getting used to.
02:33Um, so if you need anything...
02:35I know where the task force office is.
02:37Good luck.
02:41Hey, I don't want to make you look late for roll call,
02:43but girlfriend Lucy has a couple of things she'd like to say to you
02:47before you start at your shift.
02:48So, good luck.
02:50You've earned this, and you've got this.
02:54Girlfriend Lucy?
02:55Yes.
02:56Well, technically I guess it's live-in girlfriend Lucy now, so...
02:59Technically I think you have to be fully unpacked before we even call you then.
03:02But that's not the point.
03:04Either way, L-I-G-F Lucy is officially clocking out,
03:08and Sergeant Chen is taking over.
03:10This is weird.
03:11Maybe.
03:12But our jobs are too important to let our relationship interfere.
03:15We really need to be professional.
03:18Okay.
03:18Well, I appreciate L-I-G-F Lucy's kind words.
03:24I will tell her if I see her.
03:30First day as Roving Supervisor.
03:32Nervous?
03:33Oh, no.
03:34Nothing could be more challenging than working with the Dream Team, so...
03:36At least on night shift you bore everyone in the Watts Commander.
03:39Wow.
03:40I do have a good plan for dealing with that, though.
03:42It's strict compartmentalization.
03:44Sounds unhealthy.
03:45What? No!
03:46I think it's good.
03:47Clear boundaries and no confusion.
03:49See you at roll call.
03:51So, any advice for dealing with your OTO?
03:55Nolan's tricky.
03:56He seems like the nicest person in the world,
03:57but he can lay down the law.
03:59Don't take him for granted.
04:01Understood.
04:03Hey.
04:05It is so weird seeing Tim in Grey's office.
04:08It feels like everything's changing all at once.
04:10Tim's the new Grey.
04:11I'm the new Tim.
04:12Miles is the new Selena.
04:13So who am I?
04:15You're just Nolan.
04:28Okay, knock it off.
04:30We have a number of changes today.
04:32First, Nolan will take over Training Officer Penn.
04:35Finally got him straightened out, so try not to mess it up.
04:38I'll do my best.
04:39But don't do your best.
04:40Do my best.
04:41Second, Sergeant Chen is taking over as roving supervisor.
04:47And finally, in T-36 hours, the President of the United States arrives in Los Angeles.
04:53Sorry, I think I'm coming down with something.
04:56Probably just an allergy.
04:58It is an honor to host the President in our fair city.
05:00And we will ensure that his visit is safe and productive.
05:03A Secret Service advance team lands shortly,
05:04and they'll be operating out of our station for the next 48 hours.
05:07Let's show them how real law enforcement is done.
05:10Copy?
05:11Copy.
05:11Yes, sir.
05:12Dismissed.
05:13Sergeant Chen, a minute.
05:14Yep.
05:16Okay, this right here.
05:18This is the current department bible on presidential visits.
05:20Oh, so don't lose it?
05:22Don't even joke about losing it.
05:24Okay.
05:26Oh, wow.
05:28That's really intricate.
05:29Yeah, apparently this President guy is pretty important.
05:31Look, I've been coordinated with the Secret Service for the last month.
05:33The only thing left to lock down is the motorcade route.
05:37And since you're watch commander now, it falls to me, right?
05:40Okay.
05:41Correct.
05:41This is not as simple as getting the President from point A to point B.
05:44The route needs to comply with all Secret Service protocols.
05:46And my recent proposal is in there.
05:48We're just waiting for a sign off on a few items.
05:49Am I locked into your plan?
05:51No.
05:51If you think you can do better, feel free.
05:52But it would be a heavy lift on your first day.
05:55And the rethink can't get in the way of your other duties.
05:57So if you were me, stick to the current plan.
05:59Got it.
06:00Okay, so if I do lose it...
06:03Oh, I'm joking.
06:05Gray would have thought that was funny.
06:07Doubt it.
06:09Jen, um...
06:11McCall was okay, right?
06:14Speaking as Sergeant Cham.
06:16Because Lucy has left the building.
06:17Yes, I remember.
06:18You were maybe like a tad too gruff.
06:20They're grown-ups.
06:21I'm not gonna coddle them.
06:22No, I totally agree.
06:23It's just, you know, Gray would always end on a good note.
06:25Be safe out there.
06:26Okay, well, that was his thing.
06:28You know, I need to find my own style.
06:31I know.
06:32And you will.
06:35Every T.O. rookie relationship is unique.
06:38As long as it's based in respect, we shouldn't have any problems.
06:41So, what is next in your rook book checklist?
06:43Conservating and informant.
06:44Okay.
06:45But shouldn't that wait until after the circus comes to town tomorrow?
06:48Every day as a circus in Los Angeles, part of your training is going to be multitasking.
06:51I assume you've already started cultivating a list of potential CIs?
06:54Oh, yes, sir.
06:55My top candidate and a high-end sex worker helped out a few weeks back.
06:58Good instincts.
06:58But I wouldn't start with her.
07:01A CI cop relationship is complicated on a good day without the emotional complexities that her profession might bring.
07:07All right.
07:07Well, what about Dave Cosby?
07:09His garage does a lot of work on cars, but it's on the front.
07:12How long has he been sober?
07:13A couple months.
07:14Not nearly long enough.
07:15All right.
07:17Fast Andy.
07:19Fast Andy.
07:19Now, he has good connections, but he's not that bright.
07:25I'm not looking for a financial advisor.
07:27Most criminals are dumb.
07:28Right, but CI needs to be smart enough to be able to maintain a lie.
07:32Yeah, I know that.
07:32I've recruited informants before back in Texas.
07:35Okay.
07:36It's your call.
07:37I'm only here for guidance.
07:38If you think Fast Andy is your guy, let's go recruit him and see how that goes.
07:41I'm not buying it.
07:43Kids in self-care all day, every day?
07:46I think you'd get bored.
07:48So I'll start a business.
07:49Hire my BFF to run it with me.
07:52What kind of business?
07:53Harper.
07:54Lopez.
07:56Bradford.
07:56Good to see you.
07:57All right.
07:57Agent Butler.
07:58This is Sergeant Chen.
07:59She's taking over my whole position.
08:00Detective Harper and Lopez have volunteered to help you run down threats.
08:03I don't remember volunteering.
08:05Me neither.
08:06This is my right hand.
08:07Agent Kevin Kelvin.
08:08I'm sorry.
08:09Kevin...
08:10Kevin Kelvin?
08:10My parents are fans of alliteration.
08:12Who is it?
08:13Here's the watch list.
08:14As you know, most of them are cranks.
08:16But, the port is landing tomorrow.
08:17We need to make sure that there's no signs of escalation.
08:19Major life events.
08:20Weapon purchases.
08:20You know what escalation looks like.
08:22Of course you do.
08:23My apologies.
08:24You want us to start at the top of the list?
08:25No.
08:26They're an order of assessed threat.
08:27We'll take the most worrying.
08:28Why don't you start around...
08:3120?
08:31Sure thing.
08:36Start at 20?
08:37You might as well have just said,
08:38waste your entire day talking to mouth breathers.
08:40What I'm saying, if we work for ourselves,
08:42we wouldn't have to jump through anybody else's hoops.
08:44Doing what?
08:47Well...
08:48Alright, so we have narrowed it down to private investigation firm or spa resort.
08:53Two solid choices and we've only been thinking on it
08:55for three wasted time doorknobs.
08:57Who's lucky number four?
08:58Jerry Hudson, 34, gun enthusiast,
09:02posts under the username
09:05sixsempertyranus414
09:05and threats to the president
09:06are varied in many.
09:09Mr. Hudson, LAPD, we have a few questions for you.
09:17Angela?
09:23Jerry Hudson, LAPD!
09:25Come out with your hands up!
09:27Let's go!
09:56It's okay.
10:00Claire, you got anything?
10:13Angela?
10:21Impressive and terrifying.
10:24Everything's labeled.
10:24It makes it easy to see what's missing.
10:27What is most troubling is sniper rifle.
10:30I think it means rifle.
10:32I think his spelling is the least of our problems.
10:41It is important that you be completely clear with your CI.
10:44That's a delicate balance.
10:45You want to motivate your CI to cooperate,
10:47but at the same time, you can't keep them out of jail.
10:49You can't even promise to be lenient.
10:51I'm not the DA.
10:52Got it.
10:52Andy, it's good to see you.
10:54Things are taking the time.
10:55You know what I got to make this quick, though?
10:56Because my boss sees all over me about that business I have with the money.
10:58I mean, how am I supposed to know Obama's not on the 100?
11:02Those fakes can be tricky.
11:03Exactly.
11:05So, what's up?
11:06I have a business proposition.
11:07You've got connections on your side of the law.
11:09I've got connections on my side of the law.
11:11What do you say work together?
11:12You want me to snitch?
11:12Nah, you don't have to tell me anything you don't want to.
11:14What?
11:15If you hear something you want to pass along, hit me up.
11:17How much is it worth to you?
11:18Well, let's not focus on the money.
11:20It's worth nothing.
11:20Look, LAPD's budget is limited.
11:22But the real benefit is our relationship.
11:24You help me, I help you.
11:26Help me how?
11:27We can discuss that.
11:29So, let's discuss it now.
11:327 out of 15.
11:34Detectives requesting 10-21 for assignment.
11:37Copy.
11:38Calling shortly.
11:38Look, you murdered someone.
11:40I can't help you, right?
11:41But smaller offenses?
11:42I have some leeway.
11:43Okay.
11:44I can see the value in that.
11:45Good.
11:46All right.
11:46We gotta go.
11:48Here's my card.
11:50The cell is on there.
11:52Thanks, man.
11:53Hey.
11:53You want a pop for your leave?
11:55Let's open a bottle of vodka.
11:56We don't drink on the job.
11:57Yeah, me neither.
11:58Yeah.
12:02What?
12:03Nothing.
12:04You happy without that wet?
12:06Yes, sir.
12:07Now it's up to Andy.
12:12How am I supposed to make sure POTUS is never 10 minutes away from a hospital?
12:167 out of 300.
12:17We're questioning supervisor on Blix and Hortens.
12:19Priority x-ray.
12:207 out of 300 responding.
12:27Okay.
12:39Hey.
12:40Must be bad if the watch commander came out.
12:41Not good.
12:42Heavily armed suspect on the secret service watch list is in the window.
12:44What exactly is this guy's history with the president?
12:47Cyber threat team flagged Hudson a year ago.
12:48He was supposed to think about revolution, rooting out here in the all standard fare.
12:51About six months ago, he started demanding a meeting with the president, sending handwritten
12:55letters directly to the White House.
12:56We'll need copies of those letters.
12:57I'll send you copies of our reports.
12:59Not the reports, the originals.
13:00I can assure you our analysts are very thorough.
13:02No doubt.
13:03But I insist.
13:04Just say yes.
13:06Fine.
13:06But I want every available officer out looking for this guy.
13:09Okay.
13:09Absolutely.
13:11Sir, you go.
13:13You'll have all available resources in full coordination with our divisions.
13:16Good.
13:17I want to embed Agent Kelvin with your team.
13:19Yeah, no problem.
13:20We can do that for you.
13:21Officer Juarez?
13:24Agent Kelvin's gonna ride with you.
13:25He's gonna help question Hudson's family members.
13:27Let's go.
13:29At what point do you cancel the president's visit?
13:32We are nowhere near that point.
13:33We're all we know this guy could be out on a hunting trip.
13:35I know that this is high-level stuff.
13:38This is my everyday.
13:39So let's just chase down the bad guy and check him off the list.
13:44I'm just gonna say it.
13:45Not a fan.
13:46That's twice.
13:46It felt like he defaulted to talking to Tim, right?
13:48Am I crazy?
13:48No.
13:49I don't think he meant anything by that.
13:50We've worked together before.
13:51He's just comfortable with me.
13:52Mm-hmm.
13:53Alright, I'll go talk to him.
13:54No, no.
13:55That definitely is worse.
13:56It's fine.
13:57We eat ingrained misogyny for breakfast.
14:00Lopez just sent details on our suspect, Jerry Hudson.
14:03She wants us to talk to Jerry's coworkers at 3rd Street Surplus.
14:06Copy that.
14:09That Lopez again?
14:10Fast-handed.
14:11He's got a lead already?
14:12Not exactly.
14:13It's mostly memes.
14:15Oh, this one's not a meme.
14:16He wants to know if I can track down a...
14:19Girl, he once stated she was smoking hot.
14:21What if she's gotten fat?
14:23Never mind.
14:23He's not interested.
14:27You're an Aries?
14:28Oh, yeah.
14:29It was a gift.
14:31I'm a cancer.
14:32Of course.
14:33And I bet you're a Gemini ascending.
14:35You're good.
14:35I dabble.
14:37But I've learned to downplay it at work.
14:39Oh, me too.
14:40Everyone is so judgmental of New Age spirituality.
14:44How long have you been in the Secret Service?
14:47I joined right out of college.
14:48Let me guess.
14:49You watched In the Line of Fire at an impressionable age?
14:53Not exactly.
14:54Oh.
14:55I don't know you well enough yet.
14:57Oh, come on.
14:58This shop is a safe space.
15:01Here, I'll go first.
15:04I believe the reason why tarot works is because it's connected to the non-linearity of time.
15:11So the tarot isn't sending you a message.
15:13You are sending yourself a message from the future by influencing the cards.
15:18I have never thought about it that way before.
15:20That makes a lot of sense.
15:21I know.
15:23So, what made you want to protect the president?
15:27I had all these dreams when I was a kid.
15:30Real vivid.
15:31And they had all these historical details that I just couldn't possibly know any other way.
15:36Like from a past life?
15:37Yeah.
15:37And I realized I was Abraham Lincoln.
15:41Reborn.
15:42Like Abraham Lincoln, Lincoln?
15:44That's the one.
15:46Well, that's why you joined the Secret Service.
15:49To stop what happened to you from happening to another president.
15:53Not what I put on my application, but yeah.
15:57Well, that's amazing.
15:59Okay.
16:007 Adam 13, EMT report triggered our BOLO.
16:02Suspect Jerry Hudson was just taken to St. Stephen Hospital.
16:05You're the closest unit.
16:06Control, show us responding.
16:11Hey, did you just bring in Jerry Hudson?
16:13Yeah, he was in a single car accident.
16:15Lost control in an intersection.
16:16Hit a light pole.
16:17We need to talk to him.
16:17He's being triaged in baseball.
16:20He just took off.
16:21Call security.
16:21Tell them to lock down the hospital.
16:22Any chance he's armed?
16:23I did a pretty furrow exam.
16:25If there was a gun, I would have felt it, but there was an empty knife sheet.
16:28Oh, okay.
16:297 Lincoln 13, I need additional units to St. Stephen Hospital for at-march suspect Jerry Hudson.
16:35Description to follow.
16:36Brown hair, blue jeans, white shirt, blood on his face and neck from a head injury.
16:43Nothing.
16:43Oh, God.
16:47What happened to his car?
16:48They were hooking it up to go to the impound lot when I left.
16:58Half a mile on foot with a head injury?
17:01I bet we beat him here.
17:05You'd lose that bet.
17:067 Adam 15, eyes on Hudson, we need backup at Mid-City.
17:09Go!
17:46More than four guys, they're gonna kill me.
17:47Shops get damaged all the time.
17:49It's not your fault.
17:50I've totaled five.
17:50Seriously?
17:52Back in Texas, they would give you a medal for being a proper lawman.
17:56Hey, they found the tow truck abandoned a half mile away.
17:59Shouldn't be hard to find him, right?
18:00He won't make you far on foot.
18:01We have no idea how long he's been planning this.
18:03He could have switch cars stashed across the city, people helping him.
18:05Secret Service has to cancel the visit now, right?
18:07I wouldn't count on that.
18:08But they are changing his motorcade route, so I gotta go.
18:11What do you want us to do, Sarge?
18:12Right.
18:13Um...
18:13Okay, get back to the station.
18:14Check in with Harper and Lopez.
18:16They're talking to Hudson's ex-girlfriend, so hopefully they'll learn something that'll
18:18help us find him.
18:22How you doing, Margaret?
18:23I am Detective Harper.
18:24This is Detective Lopez.
18:26Hi.
18:27I hope you don't mind.
18:28My mom wanted to come.
18:29Whatever makes you most comfortable.
18:31I always knew that Jerry was bad news.
18:32Mom.
18:33Well, I did.
18:34How long did you two date?
18:35Uh, about 10 months.
18:37Six months is too long.
18:38But every time I tried to break it off, he had some crisis and I felt guilty, so I stayed.
18:43When did his obsession with the president start?
18:46Um...
18:47He was already a little bit paranoid when I first met him.
18:50But it just felt like talk.
18:52Conspiracies about the deep state.
18:53You know.
18:55But then it got worse.
18:57He...
18:57got worse.
18:58Uh...
18:59He thought that he was being watched.
19:01Said his boss was CIA.
19:02That strangers on the street were reporting on him.
19:04He...
19:04He thought that if he could get to the president, he could make it stop.
19:07I gently pushed back.
19:08Tried to encourage him to go see someone.
19:11He accused me of being one of them.
19:13Threatened to hurt me.
19:14Did he?
19:15No.
19:17Uh...
19:17He punched a hole in the wall and left.
19:19I changed the locks.
19:20Took my vacation time.
19:21Went camping for three weeks.
19:24By the time I got back, he seemed to have moved on.
19:29It's such a tragedy.
19:32Really.
19:33He used to be a nice guy.
19:35Honey.
19:35Mom.
19:37He was.
19:38Made me feel special.
19:40Made me laugh.
19:42Um...
19:42I just...
19:43watched him go down the rabbit hole and there was nothing that I could do to save him.
19:48Do you have someplace safe you can stay until he's in custody?
19:52She can stay with me.
19:53I have a shotgun and I'm not afraid to use it.
19:55Let's try and avoid that.
19:57We'll give you a panic button and have units check on you regularly.
19:59Listen, you knew him as well as anyone.
20:02Do you really think that he would hurt the president?
20:06Uh...
20:07I think that Jerry is a very disturbed man.
20:10Who has the means and ability to do great violence.
20:16Hey.
20:17So?
20:18How'd it go today?
20:19Well, we have an armed wannabe assassin on the loose.
20:22The president lands at 16 hours.
20:23Other than that...
20:24It's always something.
20:26Is there anything I can do?
20:27No.
20:28All under control.
20:29Secret Service brought additional resources.
20:30Nightship detectives are fully briefed, as are the sergeants.
20:33Okay.
20:34Good night.
20:39Hey, hi.
20:40I have bad news.
20:41I heard you have to redo the motorcade route.
20:43Yes.
20:43So, um, I'm gonna need to rain check on our romantic first night living together dinner.
20:48I'm sorry.
20:48It's okay.
20:49All right.
20:49You want me to stay around and help?
20:50No.
20:52You're worried it'll look like I don't trust you and I'm taking over.
20:55Yes.
20:55Even though I know that's not what you'd be doing.
20:57It's just, you know, appearances are important.
20:59Especially right at the beginning of a new job, so.
21:01It's okay.
21:02Listen, I'll keep my ringer on.
21:03Call me if you have any questions and no one needs to know.
21:07You know, in my mind, I'm kissing you right now.
21:13So, first day is my T.O.
21:15How did I do?
21:16As Sergeant Bradford would say, you performed all tasks adequately.
21:20My CI choice was, uh, disappointing.
21:23Well, I don't know.
21:24Maybe he'll pay off.
21:26We're good.
21:28We'll see.
21:29Maybe Abraham Lincoln was just messing with you.
21:31I thought about that, but he seems so earnest.
21:34Like, I think he really believes it.
21:37Are you sure you don't want to come sit on the couch?
21:39I'm not used to all this soft furniture, so it's gonna take me a minute.
21:44Hey, even if Agent Past Live does believe it, is that such a bad thing?
21:48Everyone thinks they were someone special in their past life.
21:51You know, but there's no way that everyone was Cleopatra or Diego Rivera.
21:55You know what the problem is?
21:56I think it says something about his personality, you know?
21:59Like, it's so self-aggrandizing.
22:01Out of all my past lives, not a single one was famous.
22:05You remember your past lives? Like, all of them?
22:07Let's not get into it. Who keeps sexing you?
22:10My CI.
22:11Well, if it's important, take the call.
22:14Let's see.
22:18It's a video of a kangaroo fighting a deer.
22:21I have not seen this.
22:30No.
22:32Line of sight is too clear on the western edge.
22:36This guy's a sniper.
22:38Take another run at it.
22:40I'll be back at 4am for an update.
22:53Hello?
22:54Am I talking to Sergeant Chen or LIGF Lucy?
22:57I don't even know anymore.
22:59You're working on the motorcade route?
23:00You know, here's the thing.
23:01I cannot shut Sepulveda down for three hours.
23:04It's just not even on the table.
23:05And don't even get me started on Wilshire.
23:07We do not have the manpower to cover even half of those rooftops, so...
23:11So it's gonna be an all-nighter?
23:12For sure.
23:12Have you eaten, at least?
23:14No, but it's not a big deal.
23:15I mean, there's a vending machine that I can go get something from.
23:20God forbid.
23:24This is really sweet.
23:25I'm gonna cry.
23:27At work, you would never.
23:28You're right.
23:29Have you changed your mind about help?
23:33No.
23:34But you could stay and eat with me and listen while I complain about the secret service
23:38without offering any advice, like the supportive, live-in boyfriend you are.
23:44You got it.
23:45We live in a disaster-prone area.
23:47We need to be ready for anything.
23:49And if we raised chickens, we'd have guaranteed source of protein.
23:53How are you gonna protect them from the coyotes?
23:55I'll build them a fortress in the yard.
23:57I'll have my strong, handsome husband build them a fortress in the yard.
24:02I'm clear, but as you can see, the suspect has barricaded himself inside the dispensary and is refusing to come
24:06out.
24:07You can't arrest me!
24:08I have immunity!
24:09Call Officer Finn!
24:13Great.
24:20Hey, uh, what's up? What's Channel 7?
24:23Nolan told me to turn it on.
24:24Oh, it's an old people's way to watch the news.
24:28The suspect is still refusing to comply with the police.
24:31Customers and staff are-
24:32Andy, Andy, what the hell are you doing?
24:34I need you to call off the cops, man.
24:35No, you need to put the phone down and walk out the door with your hands on your head.
24:38You said you could get me out of trouble!
24:39So you went to rob a pot dispensary to test that out?
24:42No.
24:43Law enforcement hopes to draw him out as quickly as possible.
24:47I'm in trouble.
24:48You're in trouble.
24:53Ben, do you know how much trouble you caused last night?
24:55The Department of Public Relations has been fielding calls nonstop about cops making immunity deals with dirtbags.
24:59It was entirely my fault, sir. I wasn't clear with my CI.
25:02In Miles' defense.
25:03No, there is no defense. For him or you.
25:05Letting him make a CI deal with Fast Andy? You know better than that.
25:08I was giving him enough space to make it a teachable moment.
25:10Well, now it's a teachable moment for both of y'all.
25:12How do you think this looked on my first day as Watch Commander?
25:15I'm so sorry, sir.
25:15I would bear you both under the doghouse but the president lands in two hours and we are no closer
25:19to finding Jerry Hudson.
25:21Suit up!
25:22Yes, sir.
25:22Yes, sir.
25:24Once again, I'm so sorry, sir.
25:27Noted.
25:27Now, get your head in the game. Today's gonna be a bear.
25:29We'll deal with the fallout tomorrow if we still have jobs.
25:34I don't think you see my vision.
25:36Okay, a security company slash resort slash makeup line is hard to picture.
25:40We wouldn't do them all at once.
25:42Morning.
25:43Wesley's killing my dream.
25:44Uh, it's not your dream. You came up with it yesterday.
25:47I'm going to work.
25:53Force a habit?
25:55No. Close the door.
25:58First of all, I want to be clear. This is temporary.
26:02With the president coming to town, they want a seasoned veteran back in the office.
26:06Which is why they asked me to return as Watch Commander for the day.
26:09Okay.
26:09Damn, this has nothing to do with you or the job you're doing.
26:12I mean, it has something to do with it.
26:13The stakes are way too high.
26:14And God forbid something happens today.
26:16There can't be a newbie at the helm.
26:18It'll look like we winning unprepared.
26:20I get it.
26:21All right, what do you need from me?
26:22Get everybody in roll call.
26:23Yes, sir.
26:32All right.
26:34This is only temporary, so please try to contain your disappointment.
26:39Now, we're all aware of the most pressing issue.
26:42The president lands in two hours and we have a wannabe assassin on the loose.
26:45The decision has been made to continue to visit, so I need everyone on this.
26:50Detectives Harper and Lopez and Agent Butler will get you up to speed.
26:53Our suspect is Jerry Hudson, avid collector of conspiracy theories and weapons,
26:57the most alarming of which is a Barrett M82.
27:00According to the Rangemaster at Hudson's Range, Hudson is accurate up to 800 yards.
27:04The two stops that POTUS is making, first at UCLA for a speech,
27:08then at a fundraiser at Hancock Park, are well secured.
27:10But we are adding an awning to cover the entrance and exit at each location.
27:14Sergeant Bradford will be coordinating motorcade route.
27:16No, that assignment will remain with Sergeant Chen.
27:18I'm a utility player today.
27:20Fine. As of 0600 this morning,
27:23we have locked in a primary and secondary route for both locations.
27:26Because of the elevated threat level, street closures will be more extensive than normal.
27:31I know, but it is what it is.
27:34Be prepared for angry motorists and an increase in reckless behavior.
27:39You got anything bad?
27:43Listen, today is why we wear the uniform.
27:47Not just to keep the president safe, but to ensure the safety of all Angelinos.
27:53Communication is key.
27:54Eyes open.
27:55Stay sharp.
27:57Let's win the day.
28:03Nice speech.
28:05And thank you.
28:06No need to pay the demotion forward.
28:08Look, your plan is great.
28:09I mean, you thought through threats seasoned agents would have missed.
28:12Are you okay?
28:14I'm fine, Sergeant Chen.
28:16What's our first order of business?
28:19Shutting down the west side of Los Angeles.
28:21Here we go.
28:23Mohammed Atta!
28:23Let me see you take off.
28:24Take off!
28:25Eddie, I need a tow truck in Sector 7, North Side or 4.
28:28Take off!
28:29Take off!
28:29Let me see you take off!
28:39Jerry's creative spelling does not make his angry letters to the president any easier to read.
28:43Took me a minute to figure out he wasn't raging against pubic policy.
28:47Pubic? Oh, right. Public. That's almost as good as the deep state will know my furry.
28:52Hard to say who he hates the most. The president, Justice Department, CIA, or the English language.
28:57No, it's definitely the FBI. I can't tell you how many times he's railed against the Pheebs.
29:04Actually, it doesn't say the Pheebs. It says Pheebs betrayed him. Pheebs deserves to die.
29:10Pheebs as in Phoebe. Margaret Phoebe Dawes.
29:16I think I figured out what was wrong on our first day. You ignored my advice and misled to CIA.
29:21Uh, that's it. What I realize is I've had a lot of coaches in my day, and I tend to
29:26respond best to the real hard asses.
29:28Like Tim? Yeah, more of a drill sergeant type.
29:30Look, so if I'm messing up, just get in my face, yell. I can take it.
29:34Um, yeah, what do you got?
29:37Hudson's plan is in his letters.
29:39Let me guess. Kill the president?
29:40No, he's starting with Pheebs. Pheebs, his ex-girlfriend's middle name. We have to get to her now.
29:45We're on the way. Come on.
29:53You've reached Margaret. Sorry I missed you.
29:55Hey, it's Detective Harper. Call me as soon as you get this.
29:58Okay, thanks. She's not with her mom either.
30:02Wait, hold on. Hey, Margaret, where are you?
30:04I'm at work.
30:05Hey, I need you to get out of there and go someplace safe.
30:08Harry's coming at me.
30:09We are on our way right now.
30:12What was that?
30:13That's him. You gotta hide.
30:14I need all available units at 4-6-2 Warner.
30:17Any room with a door that locks, a bathroom, or...
30:19My boss's office.
30:21Okay, that's perfect. Barricade yourself in there. Do not come out until we get there.
30:24Okay. Run. Run. Run. Run. The police are out of there.
30:28Hide. Hide. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Go.
30:32Go.
30:32Go.
30:33Go.
30:33Go.
30:34Go.
30:34Go.
30:35Go.
30:36Go.
30:40Go.
30:46Go.
30:50Go.
30:51I love you, I love you.
31:22You have to wait for Metro?
31:23No. We're going in.
31:25Good.
31:27You good?
31:36Go. Get out of here.
31:37I'm gonna go.
31:39Come on. Don't stop. You're gonna cross the street.
31:41We'll go left. You take center. Copy.
31:45So be careful, Officer Penn.
31:46There is no room for you to be a cowboy today.
31:49You've both seen firsthand how things can go wrong in a gunfight.
31:51Stay on my six, focus on your sector, and control your fire.
31:55Yes, sir. Let's do this.
32:25Did you hear that?
32:33Is anyone injured?
32:35No. We're okay.
32:36Does anyone know where Margaret is?
32:37No. We haven't seen her.
32:38All right. Stay low. Stay quiet. We have additional units on the way.
32:41We have six secured upstairs. Margaret is not with them. Repeat, Margaret is not with them.
32:53All right. Stay here. Protect them.
32:54What? Don't argue. Just do it.
32:56We're soon.
33:27Okay.
33:43Shoot her down!
33:45Suspect down.
33:48Control is set in at 15.
33:50You have a suspect in custody.
33:51You need an ambulance for one suspect.
33:53Two gunshot wounds in the shoulders.
33:54He's conscious and breathing.
33:55You gotta go for it.
33:58Hey, you okay?
33:59Yeah.
34:02Is it over?
34:02Yeah, it's over.
34:04It's okay.
34:06It's okay.
34:08Who am I kidding?
34:09I do this job for free.
34:15Well, POTUS is in the air, and we are out of here.
34:18Thank God.
34:19No, no, not that I'm expressing relief that you are leaving.
34:23It's just, this town loses their mind when you disrupt their commute.
34:26I totally understand.
34:27It was a pleasure working with you.
34:29Likewise.
34:30I really mean it.
34:31I don't tell too many people about the past life thing,
34:35and it was nice talking to someone who believes me.
34:38Of course.
34:39And who knows?
34:41You know, maybe we connect so well because in a past life,
34:44I was Mary Lincoln.
34:47Or John Wilkes Booth.
34:49I'm, no, I'm kidding.
34:51I was, I was kidding.
34:54Okay, I don't take myself that seriously, right?
34:57Oh.
34:58Kevin Kelvin of the Secret Service.
34:59His name is Kevin Kelvin?
35:01Yes, not the point, but.
35:03You know what?
35:04Never mind.
35:04I'm just glad this crazy day is over.
35:07I heard you guys were the heroes.
35:09He's doing our job.
35:10Oh, he's being modest.
35:11Your former training officer is as brave as the first man waiting to order you.
35:15Don't I know it.
35:19I've been thinking about your coaching preference.
35:21The drill sergeant thing.
35:22Yeah, I'm not going to do that.
35:24We don't always get to pick the personality of our supervisors,
35:26and it's not my job to be your preferred T.O.
35:29It is your job to learn how to deal with me.
35:32Got it?
35:32Got it.
35:34Good.
35:35That was a very drill sergeant thing to say.
35:38I contain multitudes.
35:45Hey.
35:45Hey.
35:46Thanks for stepping in today.
35:47There's nothing you couldn't have done.
35:49Brass just doesn't know you.
35:51So start forging those relationships.
35:52Bring coffee to the weekly meetings.
35:54Memorize their kids' names.
35:55I get it.
35:55I need to work on my social game.
35:57Exactly.
35:58Lucy can give you some pointers.
36:00All right.
36:01That's it.
36:01All yours.
36:02Tell you what.
36:03This job's a lot harder than I thought it would be.
36:06If it's any consolation, it doesn't get any easier.
36:09Great to hear it.
36:10If you need anything, I just want to talk.
36:12I know where to find you, Homer.
36:15Sir.
36:17Got a minute?
36:19Yeah.
36:20Hey, listen.
36:21Nice work today.
36:23Your accommodation is being talked about, which should put this fast-sandy screw-up to bed.
36:26About that, um, can I speak freely?
36:30Sure.
36:31Officer Penn is my rookie now, but I can't train him effectively if I have you second-guessing
36:36my methods every shift.
36:38Now, I'm aware you have a decade of seniority over me.
36:42You're right.
36:43I am painfully aware of what second-guessing feels like, and it won't happen to you again.
36:48Officer Penn is yours to train.
36:50That said, fast-sandy was a perfect storm of stupid, and as your watch commander, it
36:54is my job to yell at you if your training produces a bad result.
36:57Understood.
37:00Uh, for what it's worth, I admire how you handled yourself today.
37:05That could not have been easy.
37:13That was nice.
37:16So, are you ready to go home for our first official night together?
37:21Uh, God, yes.
37:23You know, great work with the president's visit today.
37:26I know, right?
37:28Look, thank you for saying that.
37:29So, I changed my mind.
37:31I know.
37:32Fully endorsed my wife, embracing a lifestyle that evolves.
37:34Zero gunfights for presidential assassins.
37:36Sorry, you missed your window.
37:38I already gave up on that athleisure wear company.
37:40I didn't even know that was on the table.
37:41And all the other new hustles Harper and I are dreaming about.
37:45I'm not ready to quit this job just yet.
37:47Yeah, I figured.
37:49But I do have a new dream.
37:50Mm.
37:51And Bob's a suite at the Four Seasons.
37:54Tonight?
37:55Yes.
37:55My mom's watching the kids.
37:57I'll meet you in the hotel bar in 30 minutes.
38:01Yeah.
38:02You'll be Max, an international man of misery.
38:07And I'll be Christina, an insatiable corporate shark in town for a conference.
38:13I love that for us.
38:14You can get your ass in the car.
38:16I'll be there in 30.
38:19Okay.
38:26Welcome home.
38:28I got a smaller one before.
38:31Look, I wasn't sure where you wanted anything, so I held off.
38:36Oh, it's my baby.
38:38Come here.
38:38Hi.
38:41This is kind of overwhelming.
38:43Yeah.
38:44That's a lot to do.
38:45You want to just go out to dinner?
38:46Yes.
38:47I really, really do.
38:48Can we bring Kojo?
38:49It's going to severely limit our restaurant options.
38:52But, I mean, how could we not?
38:54For sure.
38:55Kojo!
38:56Let's go.
38:56I want his dinner.
38:57Good boy.
38:57Let's go, let's go.
38:58Come here.
38:59Okay.
39:00All right.
39:01You ready?
39:01Yeah.
39:01Let's do it.
39:03Wait.
39:03Wait.
39:08Okay.
39:09Now we can go.
39:10Come on.
