00:00He'll kill me if I ruin the surprise.
00:02It's not a waffle truck that I asked.
00:03Oh.
00:05Welcome.
00:06I wanted you guys to be the first to see my new office.
00:08Look, if I'm going to be more out on the street watch commander,
00:11I need to take my office with me.
00:12Is this the new Interceptor utility vehicle?
00:15It is.
00:16700 horsepower, 8,000 pound towing capacity,
00:19level 4 ballistic door panels,
00:21dark mode,
00:22and 270 degree monitoring
00:24to analyze moving objects from potential threat levels.
00:26He calls it a super shop.
00:27That's a working title.
00:30See, we got hats and bats,
00:31infrared camera,
00:34breaching tools.
00:35I have two 32-inch screens.
00:38Yeah.
00:38Wow.
00:39Can I be watch commander?
00:40No, but you are riding with me today.
00:42Yes.
00:43Oh, see, show them droning.
00:44Oh, yeah.
00:45Check this out.
00:54Isn't he cute?
00:55She.
00:56Really?
00:57Yeah.
00:57Look, the super shop makes the Batmobile
00:59look like a kitty toy.
01:00And I can control it all right here from my phone.
01:05See?
01:08Damn it.
01:10Whoa, whoa.
01:11Damn it.
01:13Playing Tim's pump-up jazz.
01:15Down.
01:15No, no, no, no.
01:16Stop.
01:16Stop.
01:17Stop.
01:19Stop.
01:27It's not going to be as easy as you think.
01:29Based on this morning's demonstration,
01:30I'm well aware.
01:31It's not just that you're taking the watch commander duties on patrol.
01:35You're also exposing yourself to chain of command confusion
01:38when you land at a scene,
01:40even if you stay in the SUV.
01:41Super shop.
01:43It's a working thing.
01:50Morning.
01:51Morning.
01:52All right, listen up.
01:53We're going to do things a little different today.
01:55There'll be two supervisors out on the street.
01:58Sergeant Chen and myself.
02:01I know, I know.
02:03No one wants the boss showing up to their calls,
02:05second-guessing their every move.
02:06That is not my intention.
02:08Okay?
02:08Nothing has to change.
02:09I just put wheels on my office.
02:11And while we work out the details,
02:12Officer Nolan will be riding with me
02:14to help facilitate the transition.
02:16Any questions?
02:18Can I pick a playlist?
02:21It's a dumb question.
02:22All right, second order of business.
02:24Officer Juarez will be on temporary duty assignment
02:26with the Detectives Bureau.
02:28Did you choose your focus?
02:29Yes.
02:30Missing persons.
02:32Oof.
02:33You sure about that?
02:34Yeah.
02:35Your call?
02:36All right, I have some updates from the night shift.
02:38This missing person's really not bad.
02:41Detective Desmond has a reputation.
02:43Like a Harper reputation?
02:46No.
02:46Um, opposite.
02:49Last day at the DA's office.
02:51Excited?
02:52I'm relieved.
02:53When the DA had one foot in retirement,
02:54now that Vivian's DA elect,
02:56she's gonna have free reign.
02:57Well, none of that will matter
02:58once you quit and open a private practice in Malibu
03:00with a view of the ocean.
03:02Uh, with that commute,
03:03you'd never see me again.
03:04Well, in my dream,
03:05I also work in Malibu.
03:07I have a robot helicopter
03:08that flies the kids to school.
03:10And a pony.
03:11Well, sorry to kill another one of your dreams,
03:12but I already reached out to my old landlord,
03:14and the only view from that office
03:16is to eat the open place on the first floor.
03:18Oh, before you go,
03:19make sure you pass off my cases
03:20to the right prosecutors.
03:21Daniels doesn't touch homicide.
03:23Give mine to Cosgrove.
03:24He is solid.
03:25That might be an issue.
03:26Cosgrove just quit.
03:27I gotta go.
03:27Good luck.
03:29Wesley, so good to see you.
03:31Yeah, right.
03:32I'm serious.
03:33No hard feelings on my end.
03:34Yeah, because you destroyed me.
03:35Well, exactly.
03:36I made good on the promise I made you
03:37when you threw your hat in the ring.
03:38It's nothing personal.
03:39In fact, I agree with you
03:40on a lot of the issues,
03:42and I know that together
03:43we can take the DA's office
03:44in a positive direction.
03:45Mm-hmm.
03:48You're not gonna fall for that,
03:49are you?
03:50No.
03:50I was about to hand in
03:51my resignation letter.
03:52Well, she won't accept it.
03:53With Cosgrove, Garcia,
03:55and Martin already out,
03:55she can't afford to lose anyone else.
03:57Martin quit?
03:58Keyed her car on the way out.
03:59A hero to us all.
04:01Come on.
04:05Hey, sorry about the election.
04:06That should have been me facing Vivian.
04:08You were handed a poison chalice.
04:10I drank from it willingly.
04:11Zero.
04:12How's Logan?
04:13He's good.
04:14You know, he just got another chip.
04:16He's been clean now
04:18almost four months.
04:19That's great.
04:20Yeah.
04:21Uh, what about you?
04:22You gonna do the Rothwell
04:23and Pierce thing?
04:24No, I'm, uh...
04:26I'm gonna stay here.
04:27And you should, too.
04:28Mm.
04:29Come on, Wes.
04:30You joined this place
04:30to change the culture
04:31from within.
04:33To ensure that
04:34justice, not punishment,
04:36was our paramount virtue.
04:37Remember?
04:38It's a very inspirational message.
04:40They just lost by 23 points.
04:42Look, Vivian ran
04:43on Tough on Cry.
04:44She's gonna deliver.
04:45Yeah, which is why
04:46the city needs people
04:47like us here.
04:48Now more than ever.
04:49Look, we still can
04:50make a difference.
04:52Sean.
04:52You're here already.
04:53Let's work together
04:54one last time.
04:55If at the end of the day
04:56you still want to quit,
04:57I won't stand anyway.
04:59This job is where
05:00ambition goes to die.
05:02Wait, what?
05:03Missing persons.
05:04It's not a real department.
05:06It's a halfway house
05:07for cases
05:08on the way
05:08to real departments.
05:09That's a lot of reports
05:11for a fake department.
05:12Ninety percent
05:13of these cases
05:13will solve themselves.
05:15Teenager just needed
05:15to blow off steam.
05:16A wife went on a bender,
05:18came home when she sobered up.
05:19Kid fell asleep
05:20playing hide-and-seek.
05:21Well, I've been on patrol
05:22for three years.
05:23I know most missing persons
05:24reports go nowhere,
05:25but there are people
05:27in the stack
05:28who are victims
05:28of real crimes.
05:30Crimes with their own
05:31departments,
05:31like trafficking
05:32or homicide.
05:33Sorry to interrupt.
05:35Homicide once
05:36in the graph case.
05:37A fisherman found
05:38the body,
05:38looks like murder.
05:39Rest in peace.
05:43Okay.
05:44Obviously,
05:45you know the job
05:46way better than I do,
05:47but it wouldn't hurt
05:49to look through
05:49the case files,
05:50see if there's
05:50anyone we can help.
05:53Knock yourself out.
06:00This thing drives
06:01like a dream
06:02in these seats.
06:04Ten minutes
06:05in a regular shop,
06:06my ass is barking.
06:07Well, don't get used to it.
06:08You're just here
06:09while I work out the kinks.
06:11Once Penn is back
06:12from training,
06:12you're back in the shop
06:13and I'm on my own.
06:14I have a 415 at 5th and Western.
06:16RP reports two shirtless men
06:18circling each other.
06:20Seven out of 100,
06:21two blocks away,
06:21show us responding.
06:22You sure?
06:23Sounds like your basic
06:24alcohol-fueled slugfest.
06:26Yeah, I have to test
06:26response times
06:27and even the most basic
06:28of calls.
06:31Captain's calling.
06:33Bradford.
06:34Can you hold?
06:35Yeah, I'll hold.
06:40I'll be right there.
06:41I got this one.
06:44LAPD,
06:45you guys break it up.
06:47Sorry,
06:47he was just called
06:48into a meeting.
06:48Can you hold
06:49just a minute longer?
06:50Thanks.
06:50No, I meant...
06:57Sorry to keep you waiting.
07:04No problem, sir.
07:05We're getting a lot of complaints
07:06about vagrants
07:07in Stoner Park.
07:08I've got to say,
07:09renaming it would be
07:10a strong start.
07:11It's important that people
07:12feel safe in public places.
07:14Couldn't agree more.
07:14I'll have additional units
07:15in the area starting today.
07:17Okay,
07:17is that it?
07:18One more thing.
07:19I just want to say
07:20your tireless commitment
07:21to justice
07:22and the people of...
07:23Thank you, sir.
07:25Hey, hey, hey, hey.
07:28Good job, sir.
07:29You supervised the hell
07:29out of that.
07:31You're still here.
07:32And I think I found
07:33a workable case.
07:34Sadie Bell, 30,
07:35was reported missing
07:36last week,
07:37but according to
07:38her best friend, Joe,
07:39Sadie never misses
07:40visitation with her kid
07:41on the first Tuesday
07:42of every month.
07:44Walk with me.
07:46Reporting party's address?
07:48Um,
07:505206th Street.
07:50It's a homeless shelter.
07:52Joe is unhoused,
07:52meaning Sadie's unhoused.
07:54Not the most reliable bunch.
07:55On the other hand, sir,
07:57unhoused women
07:57are highly vulnerable
07:58to physical and sexual assaults.
08:00True,
08:00and they're also more likely
08:01to be substance abusers
08:03who misthink
08:04like supervised
08:04child visitations.
08:06I know.
08:07Well, I think it's
08:07worth investigating,
08:08so what's our first step?
08:10Why are you so gung-ho,
08:12Officer Morris?
08:12And don't just say
08:13the indefatigability
08:14of youth.
08:17My sister was abducted
08:19when I was a child, sir.
08:21I, uh,
08:22lived the fear
08:23of not knowing
08:24where a loved one is.
08:26Understandable.
08:27And quite noble.
08:28But I would caution you
08:30that the thousand files
08:31in my office
08:32are not an unending stack
08:33of potential happy endings.
08:35For the subset
08:36that are not just
08:37runaways or miscommunications,
08:40the endings
08:40are mostly heartbreaking.
08:45I haven't had a chance
08:47to review the reports,
08:48but it's at the top
08:48of my list.
08:49Okay,
08:49I appreciate the reminder.
08:53How did Greg make it
08:54look so easy?
08:55Oh, the scowl helped.
08:56Yeah.
08:57You don't want to bother
08:58that face with anything
08:59less than an absolute emergency.
09:00My scowl
09:01is legendary.
09:02It was,
09:03but then
09:04Lucy moved in.
09:06You know what?
09:07I take it back.
09:10Hey, Dash,
09:11everything all right?
09:12Hey, so,
09:13lesson for the future.
09:14Uh, if somebody asks you
09:15if you want to see a dead body,
09:16uh, say no.
09:18Dash,
09:18are you standing over
09:19a dead body?
09:22Yep.
09:24He's been here
09:24for at least a day.
09:25Won't know how long
09:26for sure until T.I.D.
09:27gets here
09:27and we turn him over.
09:29Kenneth Morris.
09:30K-Dog?
09:31For real?
09:32Ugh,
09:33Kenny's my English teacher.
09:34Was my English teacher.
09:35Okay, so, uh,
09:37who found the body?
09:39Uh, Dakota.
09:40We're in fourth period together,
09:41but I didn't think it was real.
09:42She's always
09:43gossiping about something.
09:44Last week,
09:45she told me
09:45she was quitting school
09:46because she landed
09:47some influencer brand deal
09:48with Pop-Tarts.
09:49Turns out it was just
09:50her regional campaign.
09:51No offense,
09:52it just doesn't seem like,
09:52uh, Coastwood is
09:54your scene.
09:55Oh, it's not.
09:56Uh, but my mom said
09:57I needed a strong senior year
09:58in order to get
09:59into a good college,
10:00so she landed
10:01an office job here
10:02and that way
10:02I got a major break
10:03on tuition.
10:03Dad, not in the picture?
10:04No, he kind of lurks
10:06in the background
10:07like the Babadook,
10:08specializing in bad decisions
10:10and hot cougars.
10:11Right.
10:12Uh, so you said
10:13Dakota found the body
10:14originally?
10:15Uh, no, Dakota said
10:16CJ told her about it,
10:17who heard about it
10:18from Ilya and Autumn
10:19who might have heard
10:20about it from somebody else.
10:22So how many teenagers
10:23came out to the woods,
10:25saw a dead body,
10:26and did nothing about it
10:27except tell their friends?
10:28Unknown,
10:29but I bet they all
10:30took selfies with it.
10:31I'm starving.
10:32Can I order green juice
10:33or something?
10:34Your intermittent fest
10:35doesn't end until one.
10:36We can talk after that.
10:38No one is asking you
10:39to spy on your friends.
10:41No, we have
10:41hidden surveillance
10:42set up to capture
10:43candid conversations.
10:45Tight.
10:45Uh, but they're not
10:46my friends.
10:46Oh.
10:47How's my hair?
10:49Fine.
10:50Who were you trying
10:51to impress?
10:52No one, Autumn.
10:57She's pretty.
10:58It's like saying
10:59that the hanging gardens
11:00of Babylon were cool
11:01instead of a feat
11:02of unparalleled engineering
11:03that redefined elegance
11:05and beauty
11:05in the ancient world.
11:07But I'm a little biased.
11:08Clearly.
11:09She nice.
11:10Hey, Dash.
11:12Do you want to come
11:12to my premiere tonight?
11:13Uh, yeah, totally.
11:15I would love to.
11:15No, wait.
11:16My publicist said
11:17we already did
11:18our charity work
11:19for the year.
11:19So you're out of luck.
11:20Sorry.
11:23What are you premiering?
11:25The new LaPorte film.
11:26It's already getting
11:26Oscar buzz.
11:27Oh.
11:28Who do you play
11:28in the movie?
11:29Young Attic No. 2.
11:30No lines,
11:31but my featured reactions
11:32really carry the film.
11:34Oh, by the way,
11:35I have a hard-out at three.
11:37Blam Squad's coming
11:37to my house.
11:38Well, we'll try
11:39to get you out in time
11:40for the full-face shellacking.
11:42Do you have a parent
11:42or guardian with you?
11:43Oh, no, thank you.
11:46I was legally emancipated
11:47when I was 13,
11:48so I could, um,
11:50work adult hours on set.
11:52I don't need them here.
11:53Great.
11:54Let's interview you first.
11:55Awesome.
11:57Please tell me
11:57Jack won't be going there.
11:59It's not definite,
12:00but Jack's preschool
12:01is the feeder school
12:02for Coastwood.
12:04It would be
12:05an easy transition.
12:07Logistically, maybe,
12:08but emotionally,
12:09won't you die a little?
12:11Yes, but L.A. elementary schools
12:13are more competitive
12:13than Stanford,
12:14and having an easy path
12:16would save hundreds
12:17of hours of stress.
12:18Yeah, but then he'd be
12:19going to school
12:19with kids like these.
12:21That's where it falls apart.
12:22And what can you tell me
12:23about Morris?
12:24Oh, Kenny was such a sweetie.
12:26Even when I had to miss
12:27a lot of class last year,
12:28he was so chill about it.
12:29Why did you have to miss school?
12:31I was doing this indie project.
12:32We were supposed
12:33to premiere at Sundance,
12:34but then the director
12:35had all these, like,
12:37harassment allegations
12:38or whatever
12:39and got basically blackballed.
12:40And now my career
12:41has to suffer.
12:42Like, did Kenneth
12:43have any disagreements
12:44with other teachers, faculty?
12:46No.
12:46I really can't imagine
12:48anyone wanting to hurt Ken Ken.
12:50It wasn't traditionally
12:50attractive, sure,
12:51but that's no reason
12:52to be murdered.
12:53Right?
12:56Can I vape in here?
12:57I have a note
12:58from my therapist.
12:59He does.
12:59I have it right here.
13:01No.
13:02Who first told you
13:03about the body
13:04in the woods?
13:05It was Sushi Tuesday,
13:06so I was pretty laser-focused
13:08on whether I wanted
13:09Ahi or Ooni.
13:11I think I ended up
13:12getting both.
13:13Let's focus here.
13:15Where did you hear
13:16about the body?
13:17Well, I remember
13:18Autumn mentioning
13:19something earlier in the day
13:21when she was talking
13:22to Ilya,
13:22but Ilya said
13:23he had heard it from...
13:24Zoe.
13:25I guess she originally
13:26saw something about it
13:28in a DM from Lynette
13:29when she was going
13:29through CJ's phone,
13:30and given what happened
13:31on the school trip
13:32last year,
13:33it is super sketchy
13:35that he was DMing Lynette.
13:37Backup.
13:38Where do we think
13:39the rumor started?
13:40Nowhere.
13:41Like, everywhere.
13:42How are we further
13:42from figuring this out
13:43than when we started?
13:45I'll call for backup.
13:46Hi again.
13:47Thank God.
13:48Normal teenager.
13:49No offense.
13:50It's just your...
13:51classmates tend to be...
13:53Overwhelmed by their own
13:54champagne problems.
13:55I get it.
13:56My dysfunction
13:56is a little bit more
13:57proletariat.
13:58I guess that's one way
13:59to put it.
13:59Yeah, I don't really
14:00hang out with them
14:00much outside of school.
14:02And that's not just
14:03because I didn't make
14:04Forbes 20 under 20,
14:05but it's definitely
14:06a factor.
14:06Well, we're not done
14:07with the interviews yet,
14:08but so far,
14:09no one we have talked to
14:10has said they're the one
14:11who started the rumor.
14:12They all claim to have
14:13heard it from someone else.
14:14Right.
14:14So, Reese heard about it
14:15from CJ,
14:16who heard about it
14:17from Zoe,
14:18who saw it
14:18in a DM from...
14:20You said that Reese
14:21heard about it from CJ?
14:22That's what she told us.
14:23That doesn't make any sense.
14:25They got in a huge fight
14:26last week about, you know,
14:27whether or not
14:27sending nudes to other people
14:29counts as cheating.
14:30They haven't spoken
14:30to each other since,
14:31and word in the halls
14:32is that Zoe and CJ
14:33are the new Ick couple.
14:34Oh my God, yes.
14:35I was totally picking up
14:36on that vibe,
14:36but I saw that Zoe
14:38wasn't following CJ
14:39on Instagram,
14:39so I put it from my head.
14:40But when I doubled back
14:42to check,
14:42it looks like she does
14:43follow him,
14:44but only with her...
14:45With her Finsta.
14:46Yeah.
14:47Okay, this is...
14:49This is actually
14:49all starting to make sense.
14:50It is?
14:51Um, so Lynette and Emma,
14:53they went to the bathroom
14:54to do a fit check
14:55for their joint Instagram account,
14:57and Lynette said that
14:58she hears somebody crying
14:59in one of the stalls,
15:00and she says that it's Reese
15:02because she recognizes
15:03her leather tabbies.
15:05Travis tells Paul
15:06in the parking lot
15:07that he heard about
15:08a dead body
15:08from some bitch
15:10in first period,
15:11and who does he have
15:13first period with?
15:14Reese.
15:14And Dash heard about
15:16the body from Dakota,
15:17who is Reese's
15:18second best friend,
15:19but she has been fighting
15:21for that number one spot.
15:22So, I mean,
15:23she would do anything
15:25that Reese says.
15:26So if Reese told Dakota
15:27to lie about
15:28where she heard
15:29about the body...
15:30This is all coming
15:31back to Reese.
15:32Okay, so is Reese
15:34witness zero,
15:35or is she the killer?
15:38Sadie!
15:45Yeah.
15:47Okay.
15:50You know,
15:50that night Sadie
15:51went missing,
15:52it was pouring rain,
15:53and the shelter was full,
15:54so I'm thinking
15:55she crawled in here
15:56to stay dry
15:57and got trapped.
15:59A couple months ago,
16:00I found a bunch of guys
16:01living it up
16:02in an access tunnel.
16:04Electricity,
16:04Wi-Fi,
16:05the whole thing.
16:07They had the right idea.
16:09But you also have
16:09electricity and Wi-Fi.
16:11Yeah,
16:11but I have to pay for it.
16:13Right.
16:14You know,
16:15one of those gays,
16:16if they locked behind her,
16:17she could be trapped
16:18or too injured
16:18to crawl out.
16:19Yeah,
16:20but at this point,
16:21she's probably dead
16:22from dehydration.
16:23Wait, what?
16:27Sadie!
16:29If you can hear me,
16:31make a sound!
16:42Desmond.
16:43Where are you?
16:44I'm inside a service tunnel
16:45looking for Sadie.
16:46I called the shelter.
16:47She showed up this morning.
16:48You're kidding.
16:49Well, why didn't they call us?
16:50They never do.
16:51So she was fine
16:52this whole time?
16:53Yeah,
16:53it turns out
16:54that her friend
16:54had the visitation day wrong.
16:56But, hey,
16:57cheer up.
16:58At least you only
16:59wasted your own time.
17:03I am so sorry.
17:15Oh, hey,
17:16Selena.
17:18Hey,
17:18I heard about
17:19the missing person
17:20who wasn't missing.
17:21Already?
17:22I just got back.
17:23Smitty was with you.
17:24Right.
17:26Oh, I'm gonna owe
17:27a lot of favors
17:27after dragging
17:28the cavalry
17:29through the sewers.
17:30Okay, first of all,
17:31do not refer to any group
17:32that includes Smitty
17:33as the cavalry
17:34in second.
17:34Those guys will forgive you
17:35or, you know,
17:36somebody else will
17:36screw up way worse
17:37and then they'll
17:37be focused on that.
17:39Well, I'm kidding.
17:40Hey,
17:41one misstep
17:42does not change
17:42the fact that
17:43your instincts here
17:44are legendary.
17:46So just take a second
17:47to wallow in this
17:48but then get cleaned up
17:48and get back out there,
17:49yeah?
17:50Yeah.
17:58Oh, you're too kind.
18:00Yes, I'm really
18:00looking forward
18:01to working with you
18:01as well, Madam Mayor.
18:02Okay, bye-bye.
18:04Sorry,
18:05I've been so busy.
18:06Before I make
18:07the big move upstairs,
18:08I wanted to get
18:09our house in order
18:10a little bit,
18:11clear the deck.
18:11So we have
18:1327 felony arrests
18:15awaiting prosecution.
18:16We just do not
18:17have the manpower
18:18to take them all
18:19to trial.
18:19Well, why?
18:20Did you lose
18:21some ADAs or something?
18:23There's been turnover,
18:25yes.
18:25So I've got plea deals
18:27approved for all
18:28these cases
18:28and I need you both
18:29to get them signed ASAP.
18:30Murder, too?
18:32This guy robbed
18:32a convenience store
18:33and the clerk
18:33had a heart attack.
18:34That is felony
18:35manslaughter at best.
18:37And a teen
18:37who pegged his principal
18:38with a football
18:39is assault
18:39with a deadly weapon?
18:40Did the DA
18:41sign off on these?
18:42I pointed to
18:42the significant mandate
18:43voters handed me
18:44and he agreed.
18:45Well, their lawyers
18:46are not going
18:47to agree to these terms.
18:48So...
18:48Make them agree.
19:00Apple Pruitt.
19:01She lives in my building.
19:03Her mother reported
19:04her missing a month ago
19:05when she didn't return
19:05from Coachella.
19:07Every year,
19:08we get a spike
19:08in imports
19:09after Coachella.
19:10This is one time
19:11this guy disassociated
19:12so hard,
19:13he reported himself missing.
19:14No, but this one's weird.
19:16Apple has a strong
19:17social media presence
19:18but didn't post anything
19:19about what happened
19:20this year.
19:21There was a massive
19:22dust storm.
19:23They canceled day two
19:24at the Sahara tent.
19:25I mean, everyone
19:25was posting about it.
19:26It's not exactly
19:27a smoking gun.
19:29Okay, listen,
19:29I know how this sounds
19:30but something is telling
19:31me to investigate.
19:33I see what's going on.
19:35You said she lives
19:36in your building?
19:36Mm-hmm.
19:37Classic move.
19:39You take a case
19:40near your house
19:40so you can investigate
19:41it from your living room.
19:43When the shift ends,
19:44you're just a few steps
19:45from your futon.
19:45I'm not trying
19:46to go home early.
19:48That's too bad.
19:50I thought you were
19:51finally catching on.
19:54There's no obvious
19:55connection between
19:56Reese and Mr. Morris.
19:57He did tutor her
19:58every week,
19:59but he tutored
20:00a lot of the kids.
20:01Yeah, and his Venmo
20:01transactions show
20:02that he was pulling
20:03down six figures
20:03on top of his salary.
20:05Why is tutoring
20:06in quotes?
20:07And one of the parents
20:08added a winky face emoji.
20:13Every student
20:14who paid for tutoring
20:15got an A.
20:15The only kid
20:16who was struggling
20:16was Dash.
20:17Yeah, his mom
20:18was barely scraping
20:19tuition together.
20:20They couldn't afford
20:21anything extra.
20:22Okay, so the parents
20:23are paying for grades
20:24so the kids get into
20:25a better college,
20:26but I mean,
20:27why kill him?
20:28Maybe.
20:29He couldn't deliver.
20:30If I spent that kind
20:31of money and my kid
20:31didn't get into
20:32their dream school,
20:33I'd be pissed.
20:36Reese, have you decided
20:37what college
20:38you're going to?
20:39Um, I think I may
20:40be taking a gap year.
20:42From your social
20:43media accounts,
20:44it seems like
20:44you're all about Yale.
20:46Yeah, it was
20:46kind of my mom's thing.
20:47But you did apply.
20:49Yeah, I applied
20:50to lots of places,
20:51but I didn't get in,
20:54so.
20:55Was your mom upset?
20:57Yeah, I guess.
20:59Reese, we know it was
21:00you who started
21:01the rumor.
21:02No, I heard it
21:03from CJ.
21:04We know that's
21:05not true.
21:06But you did tell
21:07Dakota and Travis
21:09and Lynette.
21:11You know what
21:11that tells me?
21:14You wanted someone
21:15to know.
21:16You wanted the police
21:17to know, but you just
21:18didn't want to be
21:19the one to call.
21:20It didn't seem right
21:22that he was just
21:23lying out there.
21:25How do you know
21:25he'd been killed?
21:29I stayed late
21:31on Tuesday.
21:32My mom wanted
21:33to talk to
21:33Mr. Morris.
21:34She was so angry
21:36about Yale.
21:37She was yelling
21:38at him and he wanted
21:39to talk somewhere
21:40private, so they
21:41went out back
21:41behind the school.
21:44I waited
21:45and waited
21:46and finally
21:48my mom came back.
21:50Just her.
21:52Not him.
21:54And her hands
21:57were...
21:57She wouldn't
21:58talk about it,
21:59but I...
22:00I knew she did
22:01something.
22:04I didn't want
22:05any of this to happen.
22:06I don't even care
22:07about college.
22:14Well, at least
22:16I know why I was
22:16failing the class.
22:17Your mom wasn't
22:18bribing the teacher.
22:19Yeah, then I never
22:20did any homework.
22:22Listen, your mom
22:23is stuck at school.
22:24Things are about
22:24as hectic over there
22:25as you can imagine,
22:26so your dad's
22:26going to come
22:26take you home.
22:29Is that right?
22:30Yeah, it's fine.
22:31He shows up
22:32every six to eight
22:33months to remind
22:33everybody where
22:34my mom got
22:35sole custody.
22:35I'm telling you,
22:36you cannot lose.
22:38You would be
22:38a fool not to invest.
22:39Hit me up on socials.
22:40I will tell you
22:41more about it, okay?
22:42Hey, here's my guy.
22:44How you doing?
22:45I still haven't
22:46had that gross
22:46for it yet, huh?
22:47I'm pacing myself.
22:48Hey, sorry I haven't
22:49been around much.
22:49Been working crazy hours.
22:51But good news,
22:52Tiger Bear
22:53has one more
22:54investor signed on
22:55with a non-binding
22:55verbal agreement.
22:56Tiger Bear?
22:57It's a soup.
22:58It's a breakfast soup.
22:59Dash, come on.
23:00No, that was
23:01the last one.
23:01Tiger Bear Whiskey Tequila
23:03is the whiskey-less
23:03startup.
23:04It's gonna be huge.
23:06You should get in
23:06on the ground floor, champ.
23:07I'm telling you,
23:08an investment of 10 grand
23:09will triple
23:10by the end of the year,
23:11guaranteed.
23:11You do know
23:12your son found
23:13one of his teachers
23:13dead behind
23:14the school gym today.
23:15Damn it.
23:18Sorry, sorry.
23:19Uh, okay.
23:20Uh, keep going.
23:21Uh, so Dash
23:22was working out and, uh...
23:22Just take me home.
23:24Will they have to
23:25excavate the passenger
23:25seat for parking
23:26tickets again, or...
23:27He's joking.
23:28I am a model citizen.
23:30Don't say that.
23:33Dash.
23:35I'm around if you need me.
23:37So we gotta stop
23:38by my place first,
23:39but we'll make it
23:39a pro-op, you know?
23:40Or some Zah.
23:41We'll watch last week's
23:41UFC.
23:42No problem?
23:44Just the universal
23:45unfairness of the world.
23:46Nothing actionable.
23:51Thanks for coming in.
23:52This is a plea deal,
23:53and before you ask,
23:54it's the best deal
23:55your client's gonna get.
23:56I know, murder too.
23:57It seems excessive.
23:58I mean, all you did
23:59was rob a convenience store.
24:00It wasn't your fault
24:02that the clerk
24:03had a heart attack.
24:04The man had
24:05end-stage heart disease.
24:05Now, a jury could see that
24:07as extenuating circumstances.
24:09I mean, if the jury
24:11was blind,
24:12maybe they'd see that
24:13as a gang tattoo.
24:14But I don't have to
24:15risk that possibility
24:16if you just say yes
24:16to the plea.
24:17I mean, who cares
24:18there's no precedent
24:18for a felony prosecution
24:19this severe?
24:21So what if our only witness
24:22has been charged
24:23with perjury and false accusations
24:24in two other cases?
24:26I mean, if you think
24:27you could do better at trial,
24:28you just push that plea deal
24:30right back at me.
24:52The music is nowhere near
24:54too loud.
24:55I'm Officer Juarez
24:56with LAPD.
24:57Yeah, I'm following your roommate
24:59Apple Pruitt's case.
25:00Yeah, she hasn't come home, right?
25:02No.
25:02No, I'm, I'm, I'm pretty sick.
25:06Do you mind if I come inside?
25:08Sure.
25:08Yeah, of course.
25:14I've actually been boxing up
25:16Apple's things all day.
25:17It's officially 30 days tomorrow.
25:20I just, I need someone else
25:21in here to help me
25:22with this crazy rant.
25:24Not that Apple
25:25is great about paying.
25:26She doesn't believe
25:28in money
25:28or monogamy
25:29or cleaning.
25:31She sounds like a lot.
25:33Oh, I mean,
25:34don't get me wrong.
25:35She was,
25:36is,
25:37um,
25:38one of my favorite people.
25:38Just not the greatest
25:40at cohabitation.
25:41Right.
25:42And the last time
25:43you saw her was
25:44right before she left
25:45for Coachella?
25:46She loved going
25:47even though
25:48she had her issues before.
25:50I mean,
25:50bad drugs
25:51and aggressive guys.
25:52She
25:53definitely had some scares.
25:55And you think
25:56that's what happened to her?
25:57I, I don't know.
25:58Um,
26:00I mean,
26:01I'm just trying
26:02to be helpful.
26:03But I'm desperate
26:04for you to find her.
26:06Do you mind
26:07if I take a look
26:07at her bedroom?
26:08Yeah,
26:09no problem.
26:09It's, uh,
26:10it's right over there.
26:19¿Qué pasa?
26:58¿Qué pasa?
27:19¿Qué pasa?
27:28¿Qué pasa?
27:30¿Qué pasa?
27:45¿Qué pasa?
27:53¿Qué pasa?
27:54¿Qué pasa?
27:57¿Qué pasa?
28:03¿Qué pasa?
28:07¿Qué pasa?
28:08¿Qué pasa?
28:19¿Qué pasa?
28:30¿Qué pasa?
28:31No, thanks.
28:32I just shotgunned some gasoline.
28:43Oh, God.
28:44I had some serious stuff.
28:46Hey, um, so this fancy private school of yours...
28:50¿Qué pasa?
29:02¿Qué pasa?
29:03¿Qué pasa?
29:03¿Qué pasa?
29:12¿Qué pasa?
29:15¿Qué pasa?
29:15¿Qué pasa?
29:19¿Qué pasa?
29:19¿Qué pasa?
29:25¿Qué pasa?
29:25No, no, no.
29:28I can hear you in there. Open the door or we kick it in.
29:31Uh, okay.
29:32Um, so a few of my friends are here.
29:35Um, you gotta go hide.
29:37Why would I hide from your friends?
29:38Just kidding. Go. Go.
29:40And don't come out. No matter what.
29:44Oh, man.
29:50Dash?
29:50I think I might be in some trouble.
29:56Fellas.
29:56Wait, wait, wait, wait.
29:57I'm sorry about the confusion.
29:59Your money, it's being transferred.
30:00It's just the act, you know?
30:01It takes a few days, so...
30:04Okay, where are you?
30:06Uh, closet.
30:08Dad's apartment.
30:09They're beating him up.
30:10I can get your money just one more day.
30:12Like, two times.
30:13Wait, wait, wait, wait, no.
30:15Alright, stay hidden until we get there.
30:17I can't.
30:19They'll kill him. I have to...
30:20I have to do something.
30:22No, Dash. Dash, no.
30:28I know how you can get your money.
30:29What the hell is this?
30:30It's, uh, my neighbor.
30:31He waters my plants.
30:37You are such a liar.
30:38Although lying to protect your kid is almost noble,
30:41be ashamed if I have to break all his teeth.
30:44Stomp both his ends in a suit.
30:46Pass and pass.
30:48How about we go with my plan instead?
30:50Rob a bunch of rich kids that go to my school?
30:52Who wants a Rolex?
30:56You better not be lying, kid.
30:59Your dad is out of free passes.
31:03Let's go.
31:08Dash would never knowingly put someone in danger.
31:10So we track down whether any school families are out of town.
31:14The LaPorte premiere.
31:14He's a pretentious auteur filmmaker.
31:17His new movie launches tonight.
31:19Autumn Harrington is in it.
31:20That's the girl that Dash has a crush on.
31:22Her address is in the system.
31:27Damn, who is this chick?
31:29Autumn?
31:30She's an up-and-coming IT girl.
31:32Her new project's getting Oscar buzz.
31:33Yeah?
31:35Well, let's hope she get paid in diamond bracelets.
31:37You know, stuff that's easy to pawn.
31:39Otherwise, you and your dad gonna find out what the landfill tastes like.
31:44Out.
31:50Stay with Gus until I give you the single, alright?
31:55Man, for what it's worth,
31:56Dad is the biggest train wreck I ever met.
31:59My old man, he in prison.
32:01Trying to steal a FedEx plane with a tow truck.
32:03Shit.
32:04Well, if you're the ghost of my future self,
32:05I might just have to Virginia Woolf it.
32:08I don't know what that mean.
32:09She was arguably the most influential writer of the 20th century.
32:13Ended it all by walking into a river with rocks in her pockets.
32:19Nobody likes a comedian, kid.
32:21I'd argue, but the gun gives you the last word.
32:26Hey, if this is set up, I'm killing everybody. Got it?
32:30Yes, sir.
32:35You're not my agadashi tofu.
32:38You're not supposed to be here.
32:39Well, you caught me out of the movies when I wasn't on the list.
32:42Do you know how mortifying that...
32:45Who the hell are you?
32:46Hey, who else in the house?
32:47Nobody.
32:48My parents are in Monaco.
32:50Alright.
32:50Get over here.
32:51I... I don't want to.
32:53No problem.
32:54I'll just shoot you.
33:01Who dance?
33:02What? Why?
33:03Whoa.
33:04It's even bigger on the inside.
33:05See, this is the kind of place I'm gonna get when I get paid.
33:08Hey man, shut up!
33:10Stay down here with the idiot, alright?
33:11Steal anything that's shiny.
33:17Now, take me to your parents room and they better have a boatload of watches and jury.
33:20Hey, hey.
33:20Whoa, whoa. Those whiskey bottles worth like 500 each.
33:22I'm just gonna grab a couple.
33:23Show me.
33:30How about this?
33:32The Merlot really...
33:33No, dude, those two are worth way more.
33:44Alright, alright.
34:18Hey!
34:19Where's the jury?
34:20Crozet.
34:22Alright.
34:23Alright.
34:24Hey, hey.
34:25Stay here.
34:30Okay.
34:36I cannot believe you brought them to my house.
34:38I panicked, okay?
34:39They were gonna kill my dad.
34:41Besides, you weren't supposed to be here.
34:43Whatever knowingly put you in danger.
34:45Because you have the odds for me.
34:47I have romantic intentions, yeah, but clearly you don't share them, so...
34:52It's not like you're not cute.
34:54You're just...
34:55Poor?
34:56Exactly.
35:02What are you doing?
35:03Looking for a gun.
35:05Oh, that's not a gun.
35:06Oh.
35:07Oh, your parents are freaky.
35:09What the hell are you doing?
35:10Get away from there!
35:11Oh, no.
35:11Sorry.
35:12Sorry.
35:15I'm never gonna be able to look my parents in the eye again.
35:18Me neither.
35:20Hey, Andre wouldn't really hurt my kid, right?
35:22This is a scare tactic.
35:24I mean, I know I'm not a great dad, but I try.
35:26You know?
35:28When it's convenient for me.
35:30Like, I wanna be better.
35:32Like, I really do.
35:32I think about it all the time.
35:35Well, not all the time.
35:37It's at the heart of the problem, really.
35:39I just gotta be better.
35:40The kid deserves a role model, not the...
35:43Flaming hot mess I am on a daily basis.
35:46Oh.
35:47Feels really good to come clean about this, you know?
35:49It's kind of cathartic.
35:49Ah!
35:50When the hell did you get here?
35:52Where's Dash?
35:53Let's go.
35:54No, she's staying here.
35:55She hasn't seen your face, so you're in the clear.
35:57Just...
35:57You can do whatever you want to be.
35:58Just let her go.
35:59Hey, man, you got balls, kid.
36:00Unlike your father, but she cannot stay here, alright?
36:03Let's go!
36:03There's a gold bar on that bedside table.
36:05Yeah, right.
36:06I'm serious.
36:07But if you wanna leave it, like...
36:09Alright, stay right here.
36:10Oh!
36:17Oh!
36:18Get back!
36:19Drop it!
36:21Oh!
36:22Come on, get up.
36:23Oh!
36:24Oh!
36:25Hey, you feel okay?
36:27Physically.
36:28Yeah.
36:29Give me this.
36:30Here.
36:32Ow!
36:33Thanks.
36:35And thanks for trying to save me.
36:37Oh, yeah.
36:38Anytime.
36:38Oh!
36:40Thank God.
36:42Although...
36:42I knew it was all gonna be alright.
36:44Hey, um...
36:45Maybe we don't tell your mom about this.
36:47You know, we just keep it a bro thing.
36:49Stop!
36:49Just stop.
36:51Everything that you do, everything that you say is just so...
36:54Selfish.
36:55So toxic.
36:56You haven't done one fatherly thing for me in my entire life.
36:59All you care about is yourself, and I'm just...
37:01Sick of it.
37:03I'm done with you.
37:05Forever.
37:05What?
37:13So, we met with all 27 defendants.
37:16It's the craziest thing.
37:18We tried our hardest.
37:19None of them would accept a plea deal.
37:21Not a one.
37:21Hmm.
37:21Well, I hope you've kept your weekends clear, because now you've got 27 trials you're gonna
37:25need to prepare for.
37:26Hmm.
37:28About that.
37:30I quit.
37:31And I'd say best of luck, but I hope you fail.
37:34Spectacularly.
37:35Sorry, Sean.
37:36I just can't.
37:36No.
37:37No worries.
37:38I can't either.
37:40I quit too.
37:41Ah.
37:42Hey, what do you think of the law firm of Del Monte and Evers?
37:44Well, you haven't worked a day in your life as a defense attorney.
37:47Evers and Del Monte.
37:49Turn to the right.
37:51Way ahead of you.
37:52Not my first radio.
37:54Thought we just need your clothes for evidence, and then, uh, for you to go.
37:59After everything that happened?
38:01The DA may still press charges, but it was pretty clear you were under duress.
38:06I really wanted this town to be different.
38:08I was gonna buy a dash of car.
38:10With the tiger bear money.
38:11I'd make up for lost time, you know?
38:14But, he's right.
38:15I'd screw everything up.
38:17It's better off without me.
38:19Probably.
38:21I've had some experience with bad fathers, and the love the sons feel for them, no matter
38:27how many times they get their hearts broken.
38:29And unless you're willing to change, and I mean really change,
38:35the best thing you can do for Dash is just leave him the hell alone.
38:45What were you thinking?
38:51I'm fine. Thanks for asking.
38:53Do you know how close you were to becoming a missing person yourself?
38:55If she would've succeeded in killing you, how would I have known?
38:58First thing she'd do is destroy your phone.
39:00So when I pulled to your last known location, it would be your building.
39:05So to me and the world, you were home and then you vanished.
39:08Well, I see that now. It's just I figured I'd stop by and ask a few questions.
39:12We have protocols for a reason.
39:16Yes, sir.
39:18I let my best intentions obscure my judgment, proving I still have a lot to learn about this job.
39:25But if I can be so bold as to ask a favor...
39:33You can ask.
39:35I remain undaunted.
39:38So if a file comes across your desk that gives you a feeling, call me.
39:42I am happy to run down any lead I can for you, free of charge.
39:51Deal.
39:53And for what it's worth, I'm glad you're okay.
39:57I made all these mistakes, but I made them mine.
40:13Your dad's gone and your mom's on her way.
40:16Cool.
40:19You wanna talk about anything?
40:21Uh, not really.
40:23I think I'm a little talked out for once.
40:27Understood.
40:31You're at the risk of sounding overly earnest.
40:35You're a very special young man.
40:37Despite or maybe even because of what your father's put you through.
40:43Now, I know you know that you're not him in any, any way, shape or form.
40:50But I also know that family pain is emotional and not intellectual.
40:59I'm just trying to say, uh...
41:01If you ever need a reminder of this conversation, you have my number.
41:07Thanks.
41:09And just to be clear, you're saying I can call you every morning at the crack of dawn just to
41:13tell me I'm awesome?
41:14No.
41:15Every other morning.
41:17Twice a week, final offer.
41:18I can live with that.
41:20If you can live with unlimited text, DMs and social media shout outs.
41:24Just the calls.
41:26Okay.
41:28Smart man.
41:44inspector.
42:04You're welcome.
42:06You can't do it.
42:06Never mind.
42:09You're welcome.
42:12God bless you.
