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, dark mode,
00:22and 270-degree monitoring to analyze moving objects
00:25from potential threat levels.
00:26He calls it a super shop.
00:27That's a working title.
00:30See, we've got hats and bats,
00:31infrared camera,
00:33breaching tools.
00:35I have two 32-inch screens.
00:38Yeah.
00:38Wow.
00:39Can I be watch commander?
00:40No.
00:41But you are riding with me today.
00:42Yes.
00:43Show them droning.
00:44Oh, yeah.
00:45Check this out.
00:54Isn't he cute?
00:55Really?
00:57Yeah.
00:57Super Shop makes the Batmobile look 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.
01:11Oh!
01:12Oh!
01:13Playing Tim's Pump-Up Jazz.
01:15Damn!
01:15Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:16Stop.
01:16Stop.
01:17Stop.
01:18Stop!
01:18Stop!
01:19Stop!
01:19Stop!
01:19Stop!
01:19Stop!
01:20Stop! Stop!
01:20Stop! Stop!
01:41Let me know tonight!
01:41super shop. It's a working thing. Morning. Morning. Morning. All right, listen up. We're
01:53going to do things a little different today. There'll be two supervisors out on the street,
01:58Sergeant Chen and myself. I know, I know, no one wants the boss showing up to their calls,
02:05second guessing their every move. That is not my intention, okay? Nothing has to change.
02:09I just put wheels on my office. While we work out the details, Officer Nolan will be riding with me
02:14to help facilitate the transition. Any questions? Can I pick a playlist? It's a dumb question. All
02:23right, second order of business. Officer Juarez will be on temporary duty assignment with the
02:27Detectives Bureau. Did you choose your focus? Yes. Missing persons. You sure about that? Yeah.
02:35Your call? All right, I have some updates from the night shift. This missing person's really that bad.
02:41Detective Thesman has a reputation. Like a Harper reputation? No, um, opposite.
02:49Last day at the DA's office. Excited? I'm relieved. When the DA had one foot in retirement,
02:54now that Vivian's DA elect, she's going to have free reign. Well, none of that will matter once
02:58you quit and open a private practice in Malibu with a view of the ocean. Uh, with that commute,
03:03you'd never see me again. Well, in my dream, I also work in Malibu. I have a robot helicopter
03:08that flies the kids to school. And a pony. Well, sorry to kill another one of your dreams,
03:12but I already reached out to my old landlord, and the only view from that office is to eat
03:16the open place on the first floor. Oh, before you go, make sure you pass off my cases to the
03:20right prosecutors. Daniels doesn't touch homicide. Give mine to Cosgrove. He is solid.
03:25That might be an issue. Cosgrove's just quit. I gotta go. Good luck.
03:28Look. Wesley, so good to see you. Yeah, right. I'm serious. No hard feelings on my end. Yeah,
03:34because you destroyed me. Well, exactly. I made good on the promise I made you when you threw your
03:38hat in the ring. It's nothing personal. In fact, I agree with you on a lot of the issues, and
03:42I know
03:42that together we can take the DA's office in a positive direction. Mm-hmm. You're not gonna fall
03:48for that, are you? No. I was about to hand in my resignation letter. Well, she won't accept it.
03:53With Cosgrove, Garcia, and Martin already out, she can't afford to lose anyone else. Martin quit?
03:58Keyed her car on the way out. A hero to us all. Come on.
04:05Hey, sorry about the election. That should have been me facing Vivian. You were handed a poison chalice.
04:10I drank from it willingly. How's Logan? He's good. You know, he just got another chip. He's been
04:17clean now almost four months. That's great. Yeah. What about you? You can do the Rothwell
04:23and Pierce thing? No, I'm, uh, I'm gonna stay here, and you should, too. Mm-hmm. Come on,
04:29Wes. You joined this place to change the culture from within, to ensure that justice, not punishment,
04:36was our paramount virtue. Remember? It's a very inspirational message that just lost by 23 points.
04:42Look, Vivian ran on Tough on Cry. She's gonna deliver. Yeah, which is why the city needs people
04:47like us here, now more than ever. Look, we still can make a difference. Sean, you're here already.
04:53Let's work together one last time. If at the end of the day you still want to quit, I won't
04:58stand
04:58anyway. This job is where ambition goes to die. Wait, what? Missing persons. It's not a real
05:05department. It's a halfway house for cases on the way to real departments. That's, uh, that's a lot of
05:11reports for a fake department. Ninety percent of these cases will solve themselves. Teenager just
05:15needed to blow off steam. A wife went on a bender, came home when she sobered up. Kid fell asleep
05:20playing hide-and-seek. Well, I've been on patrol for three years. I know most missing persons reports
05:25go nowhere, but there are people in the stack who are victims of real crimes. Crimes with their own
05:31departments, like trafficking or homicide. Sorry to interrupt. Homicide once in the Grath case.
05:37Fisherman found the body. Looks like murder. Rest in peace.
05:44Okay. Obviously, you know the job way better than I do, but it wouldn't hurt to look through
05:49the case files, see if there's anyone we can help. Knock yourself out.
06:00This thing drives like a dream. In these seats. Ten minutes in a regular shop, my ass is barking.
06:07Yeah, well, don't get used to it. You're just here while I work out the kinks. Once Penn is back
06:12from
06:12training, you're back in the shop, and I'm on my own. I have a 415 at 5th and Western. RP
06:17reports
06:17two shirtless men circling each other. Seven at 100. Two blocks away, show us responding.
06:22You sure? Sounds like your basic alcohol-fueled slugfest. Yeah, I have to test response times
06:27and even the most basic of calls.
06:31Captain's calling. Bradford. Can you hold? Yeah, I'll hold.
06:40I'll be right there. I got this one.
06:44LAPD, you guys break it up.
06:47Sorry, he was just called into a meeting. Can you hold just a minute longer?
06:50Thanks. No, I'm at...
07:02Sorry to keep you waiting.
07:03Uh, no problem, sir. We're getting a lot of complaints about vagrants
07:07in Stoner Park. I've got to say, renaming it would be a strong start.
07:11It's important that people feel safe in public places.
07:14Couldn't agree more. I'll have additional units in the area starting today.
07:17Okay, uh, is that it?
07:18One more thing. I just want to say, your tireless commitment to justice and the people of this...
07:23Thank you, sir.
07:28Good job, sir. You supervised the hell out of that.
07:31You're still here.
07:32And I think I found a workable case.
07:34Sadie Bell, 30, was reported missing last week, but according to her best friend Joe,
07:39Sadie never misses visitation with her kid on the first Tuesday of every month.
07:44Walk with me.
07:46Reporting party's address?
07:48Um, 5206th Street.
07:50It's a homeless shelter.
07:52Joe is unhoused, meaning Sadie's unhoused.
07:54Not the most reliable bunch.
07:55On the other hand, sir, unhoused women are highly vulnerable to physical and sexual assaults.
08:00True, and they're also more likely to be substance abusers who misthink like supervised child visitations.
08:06I know. Well, I think it's worth investigating, so what's our first step?
08:10Why are you so gung-ho, Officer Morris?
08:12And don't you say the indefatigability of youth.
08:17Uh, my, uh, sister was abducted when I was a child, sir.
08:21I, uh, lived the fear of not knowing where a loved one is.
08:26Understandable.
08:27And quite noble.
08:28But I would caution you that the thousand files in my office
08:32are not an unending stack of potential happy endings.
08:35For the subset that are not just runaways or miscommunications,
08:40the endings are mostly heartbreaking.
08:45I haven't had a chance to review the reports, but it's at the top of my list.
08:49Okay, I appreciate the reminder.
08:53How did Greg make it look so easy?
08:55Oh, the scowl helped.
08:56Yeah.
08:57You don't want to bother that face with anything less than an absolute emergency.
09:00My scowl is legendary.
09:02It was, but then Lucy moved in.
09:07You know what?
09:07I take it back.
09:10Hey, Dash, everything all right?
09:12Hey, so, lesson for the future.
09:14Uh, if somebody asks you if you want to see a dead body, uh, say no.
09:18Dash, are you standing over a dead body?
09:22Yep.
09:24He's been here for at least a day.
09:25Won't know how long for sure until T.I.D. gets here and we turn him over.
09:29Kenneth Morris.
09:30K-Dog?
09:31For real?
09:32Ugh, Kenny's my English teacher.
09:34Was my English teacher.
09:35Okay, so, uh, who 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 gossiping about something.
09:44Last week, she told me she was quitting school because she landed some influencer brand deal with Pop-Tarts.
09:49Turns out it was just her regional campaign.
09:51No offense.
09:52It just doesn't seem like, uh, Coastwood is your scene.
09:55Oh, it's not.
09:56Uh, but my mom said I needed a strong senior year in order to get into a good college.
10:00So, she landed an office job here.
10:02That way I get a major break on tuition.
10:03Dad, not in the picture?
10:05No, he kind of lurks in the background like the Babadook, specializing in bad decisions and hot cougars.
10:11Right.
10:12Uh, so you said Dakota found the body original.
10:14Uh, no, Dakota said CJ told her about it, who heard about it from Ilya and Autumn, who might have
10:19heard about it from somebody else.
10:22So, how many teenagers came out to the woods, saw a dead body, and did nothing about it except tell
10:28their friends?
10:28Unknown.
10:29But I bet they all took selfies with it.
10:31I'm starving.
10:32Can I order green juice or something?
10:34Your intermittent fast doesn't end until one.
10:36We can talk after that.
10:37No one is asking you to spy on your friends.
10:41No, we have hidden surveillance set up to capture candid conversations.
10:44Tight.
10:45Uh, but they're not my friends.
10:46Oh.
10:47How's my hair?
10:48It's fine.
10:50Who were you trying to impress?
10:52No one, Autumn.
10:57She's pretty.
10:58It's like saying that the hanging gardens of Babylon were cool instead of a feat of unparalleled engineering that redefined
11:04elegance and beauty in the ancient world.
11:07But I'm a little biased.
11:08Clearly.
11:09She nice.
11:11Hey, Dash.
11:12Do you want to come to my premiere tonight?
11:13Uh, yeah, totally.
11:15I would love to.
11:15No, wait.
11:16My publicist said we already did our charity work for the year, so you're out of luck.
11:20Sorry.
11:23What are you premiering?
11:25The new LaPorte film.
11:26It's already getting Oscar buzz.
11:27Oh.
11:28Who do you play in the movie?
11:29Young Attic No. 2.
11:30No lines, but my featured reactions really carry the film.
11:34Oh, by the way, I have a hard-out at three glam squads coming to my house.
11:38Well, we'll try to get you out in time for the full-face shellacking.
11:42Do you have a parent or guardian with you?
11:43Oh.
11:44No, thank you.
11:46I was legally emancipated when I was 13, so I could, um, work 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 Jack won't be going there.
11:59It's not definite, but Jack's preschool is the feeder school for Coastwood.
12:04It would be an easy transition.
12:07Logistically, maybe, but emotionally.
12:09Won't you die a little?
12:10Yes.
12:11But L.A. Elementary schools are more competitive than Stanford, and having an easy path would
12:16save hundreds of hours of stress.
12:18Yeah, but then he'd be going to school with kids like these.
12:21That's where it falls apart.
12:22And what can you tell me about Morris?
12:24Uh, Kenny was such a sweetie.
12:26Even when I had to miss a lot of class last year, he was so chill about it.
12:29Why did you have to miss school?
12:31I was doing this indie project.
12:32We were supposed to premiere at Sundance, but then the director had all these, like, harassment
12:37allegations or whatever and got basically blackballed.
12:40And now my career has to suffer.
12:42Like, did Kenneth have any disagreements with other teachers, faculty?
12:46No.
12:46I really can't imagine anyone wanting to hurt Ken Ken.
12:49It wasn't traditionally attractive, sure, but that's no reason to be murdered.
12:53Right?
12:56Can I vape in here?
12:57I have a note from my therapist.
12:59He does.
12:59I have it right here.
13:01No.
13:02Who first told you about the body in the woods?
13:05It was Sushi Tuesday, so I was pretty laser-focused on whether I wanted ahi or uni.
13:11I think I ended up getting both.
13:13Let's focus here.
13:15Where did you hear about the body?
13:17Well, I remember Autumn mentioning something earlier in the day when she was talking to
13:22Aaliyah, but Aaliyah said he had heard it from...
13:24Zoe.
13:25I guess she originally saw something about it in a DM from Lynette when she was going through
13:29CJ's phone, and given what happened on the school trip last year, it is super sketchy
13:35that he was DMing Lynette.
13:37Backup.
13:38Where do we think the rumor started?
13:40Nowhere.
13:41Like, everywhere.
13:41How are we further from figuring this out than when we started?
13:45I'll call for backup.
13:46Hi again.
13:47Thank God.
13:48Normal teenager.
13:49No offense, it's just your classmates tend to be...
13:53Overwhelmed by their own champagne problems.
13:55I get it.
13:55My dysfunction is a little bit more proletariat.
13:58Guess that's one way to put it.
13:59Yeah, I don't really hang out with them much outside of school.
14:02And that's not just because I didn't make Forbes 20 under 20, but it's definitely a factor.
14:06Well, we're not done with the interviews yet, but so far no one we have talked to has
14:10said they're the one who started the rumor.
14:12They all claim to have heard it from someone else.
14:14Right.
14:14So Reese heard about it from CJ, who heard about it from Zoe, who saw it in a DM from...
14:20You said that Reese heard 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 last week about, you know, whether or not sending nudes to
14:28other people counts as cheating.
14:29They haven't spoken to each other since, and word in the halls is that Zoe and CJ are
14:33the new Ick couple.
14:34Oh my God, yes.
14:35I was totally picking up on that vibe, but I saw that Zoe wasn't following CJ on Instagram,
14:39so I put it from my head.
14:40But when I doubled back to check, it looks like she does follow him, but only with her
14:45Finsta.
14:45With her Finsta.
14:46Yeah.
14:47Okay, this is actually all starting to make sense.
14:50It is?
14:51Um, so Lynette and Emma, they went to the bathroom to do a fit check for their joint Instagram
14:57account, and Lynette said that she hears somebody crying in one of the stalls, and she says that
15:01it's Reese, because she recognizes her leather tabbies.
15:05Travis tells Paul in the parking lot that he heard about a dead body from some bitch in
15:10first period, and who does he have first period with?
15:14Reese.
15:14And Dash heard about the body from Dakota, who is Reese's second best friend, but she has
15:20been fighting for that number one spot.
15:22So, I mean, she would do anything that Reese says.
15:26So, if Reese told Dakota to lie about where she heard about the body?
15:30This is all coming back to Reese.
15:32Okay, so is Reese witness zero, or is she the killer?
15:38Sadie!
15:45Yeah.
15:47Okay.
15:50You know, that night Sadie went missing, it was pouring rain, and the shelter was full,
15:54so I'm thinking she crawled in here to stay dry and got trapped.
15:59A couple months ago, I found a bunch of guys living it up in an access tunnel.
16:04Electricity, Wi-Fi, the whole thing.
16:07They had the right idea.
16:09But you also have electricity and Wi-Fi.
16:11Yeah, but I have to pay for it.
16:14You know, one of those cases, if they locked behind her, she could be trapped or too injured
16:18to crawl out.
16:20Yeah, but at this point, she's probably dead from dehydration.
16:23Like what?
16:28Sadie!
16:29If you can hear me, make a sound!
16:42Desmond.
16:43Where are you?
16:44I'm inside a service tunnel looking 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 this whole time?
16:53Yeah, it turns out that her friend had the visitation day wrong.
16:56But hey, cheer up.
16:58At least you only wasted your own time.
17:03I am so sorry.
17:15Oh, hey, Selena.
17:18Hey, I heard about the missing person who wasn't missing.
17:21Already?
17:22I just got back.
17:23Smitty was with you.
17:24Right.
17:26Oh, I'm gonna owe a lot of favors after dragging the cavalry through the sewer.
17:29Okay, first of all, do not refer to any group that includes Smitty as the cavalry in second.
17:34Those guys will forgive you.
17:35Or, you know, somebody else will screw up way worse and then they'll be focused on that.
17:39Well, I'm kidding.
17:40Hey.
17:41One misstep does not change the fact that your instincts here are legendary.
17:46So just take a second to wallow in this, but then get cleaned up and get back out there, yeah?
17:50Yeah.
17:57Oh, you're too kind.
18:00Yes, I'm really looking forward to working with you as well, Madam Mayor.
18:02Okay, bye-bye.
18:04Sorry.
18:05I've been so busy.
18:06Um, before I make the big move upstairs, I wanted to get our house in order.
18:10A little bit clear of the deck.
18:11So, we have 27 felony arrests.
18:15Waiting prosecution.
18:16We just do not have the manpower to take them all to trial.
18:19Why?
18:20Did you lose some ADAs or something?
18:23There's been turnover, yes.
18:25So I've got plea deals approved for all these cases, and I need you both to get them signed ASAP.
18:30Murder, too?
18:32This guy robbed a convenience store and the clerk had a heart attack.
18:34That is felony manslaughter at best.
18:37And a teen who pegged his principal with a football is assault with a deadly weapon?
18:40Did the DA sign off on these?
18:42I pointed to the significant mandate voters handed me, and he agreed.
18:45Well, their lawyers are not going to agree to these terms.
18:49Make them agree.
19:00Apple Pruitt.
19:01She lives in my building.
19:03Her mother reported her missing a month ago when she didn't return from Coachella.
19:07Every year, we get a spike in imports after Coachella.
19:10This is one time this guy disassociated so hard, he reported himself missing.
19:14No, but this one's weird.
19:16Apple has a strong social media presence, but didn't post anything about what happened this year.
19:21There was a massive dust storm.
19:23They canceled day two at the Sahara tent.
19:25I mean, everyone was posting about it.
19:27It's not exactly a smoking gun.
19:29Okay, listen, I know how this sounds, but something is telling me to investigate.
19:34I see what's going on.
19:35You said she lives in your building?
19:36Mm-hmm.
19:37Classic move.
19:39You take a case near your house so you can investigate it from your living room.
19:43When the shift ends, you're just a few steps from your futon.
19:45I'm not trying to go home early.
19:48That's too bad.
19:50I thought you were finally catching on.
19:54There's no obvious connection between Reese and Mr. Morris.
19:57He did tutor her every week, but he tutored a lot of the kids.
20:01Yeah, and his Venmo transactions show that he was pulling down six figures on top of his salary.
20:05Why is tutoring in quotes?
20:07And one of the parents added a winky face emoji.
20:13Every student who paid for tutoring got an A.
20:15The only kid who was struggling was Dash.
20:17Yeah, his mom was barely scraping tuition together.
20:20They couldn't afford anything extra.
20:22Okay, so the parents are paying for grades, so the kids get into a better college.
20:26But, I mean, why kill him?
20:28Maybe.
20:29He couldn't deliver.
20:30If I spent that kind of money and my kid didn't get into their dream school, I'd be pissed.
20:36Reese, have you decided what college you're going to?
20:38Um, I think I may be taking a gap year.
20:42From your social media accounts, it seems like you're all about Yale.
20:46Yeah, it was kind of my mom's thing.
20:47But you did apply.
20:49Yeah, I applied to lots of places, but I didn't get in, so.
20:55Was your mom upset?
20:57Yeah, I guess.
20:59Reese, we know it was you who started the rumor.
21:02No, I heard it from CJ.
21:04We know that's not true.
21:06But you did tell Dakota, and Travis, and Lynette.
21:11You know what that tells me?
21:14You wanted someone to know.
21:16You wanted the police to know, but you just didn't want to be the one to call.
21:20It didn't seem right that he was just lying out there.
21:25How do you know he'd been killed?
21:30I stayed late on Tuesday.
21:32My mom wanted to talk to Mr. Morris.
21:34She was so angry about Yale.
21:37She was yelling at him, and he wanted to talk somewhere private.
21:40So they went out back behind the school.
21:43So I waited and waited, and finally my mom came back.
21:50Just her, not him.
21:54And her hands were...
21:58She wouldn't talk about it, but I...
22:00I knew she did something.
22:04I didn't want any of this to happen.
22:06I don't even care about college.
22:15Well, at least I know why I was failing in the class.
22:17Your mom wasn't bribing the teacher.
22:19Yeah, then I never did any homework.
22:22Now, listen, your mom is stuck at school.
22:24Things are about as hectic over there as you can imagine,
22:26so your dad's gonna come take you home.
22:29Is that right?
22:30Yeah, it's fine.
22:31He shows up every six to eight months
22:33to remind everybody where my mom got sole custody.
22:35I'm telling you, you cannot lose.
22:38You would be a fool not to invest.
22:39Hit me up on socials.
22:40I will tell you more about it, okay?
22:42Hey, here's my guy.
22:44How you doing?
22:45I still haven't had that grocery yet, huh?
22:47I'm pacing myself.
22:48Hey, sorry I haven't been around much.
22:49Been working crazy hours.
22:51But good news, Tiger Bear has one more investor
22:54signed on with a non-binding verbal agreement.
22:56Tiger Bear?
22:57It's a soup.
22:58It's a breakfast soup.
22:59Dash, come on.
23:00No, that was the last one.
23:01Tiger Bear Whiskey Tequila is the whiskey-less startup.
23:04It's gonna be huge.
23:06You should get in on the grand floor, champ.
23:07I'm telling you, an investment of 10 grand
23:09will triple by the end of the year, guaranteed.
23:11You do know your son found one of his teachers
23:13dead behind the school gym today.
23:15Damn it.
23:18Sorry, sorry.
23:19Okay, keep going.
23:21So Dash was working out and...
23:23Just take me home.
23:24Will they have to excavate the passenger seat
23:26for parking tickets 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 by my place first,
23:39but we'll make it a pro-op.
23:40You know, or some Zah.
23:41We'll watch last week's UFC.
23:42No problem?
23:44Just the universal unfairness 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 your client's gonna get.
23:56I know, murder too.
23:57It seems excessive.
23:58I mean, all you did was rob a convenience store.
24:00It wasn't your fault
24:02that the clerk had a heart attack.
24:04The man had end-stage heart disease.
24:05Now, a jury could see that
24:07as extenuating circumstances.
24:09I mean, if the jury was blind,
24:12maybe they'd see that as a gang tattoo.
24:14But I don't have to risk that possibility
24:16if you just say yes to the plea.
24:17I mean, who cares there's no precedent
24:18for a felony prosecution this severe?
24:21So what if our only witness
24:22has been charged with perjury
24:23and 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 too loud.
24:55I'm Officer Juarez with 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.
25:09Yeah, 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 in here
25:21to help me with this crazy rant.
25:24Not that Apple is great about paying.
25:26She doesn't believe in money
25:28or monogamy
25:29or cleaning.
25:31She sounds like a lot.
25:33Oh, I mean, don't get me wrong.
25:35She was, is, um,
25:38one of my favorite people.
25:39Just not the greatest at cohabitation.
25:41Right.
25:42And the last time you saw her
25:44was right before she left for Coachella?
25:46She loved going,
25:47even though she had her issues before.
25:50I mean, bad drugs
25:51and aggressive guys.
25:52She definitely had some scares.
25:55And you think that's what happened to her?
25:57I, I don't know.
25:58Um, I mean,
26:01I, I'm just trying to be helpful.
26:03But I'm desperate for you to find her.
26:06Do you mind if I take a look at her bedroom?
26:08Yeah, no problem.
26:09It's, uh, it's right over there.
26:10I, I, I, I...
27:04I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's not what you think.
27:29I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
27:58I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
28:06I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
28:14I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
28:54I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
29:29I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
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.
29:39Go, go.
29:40And don't come out.
29:41No 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...
30:05Okay, 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.
30:15All right, stay hidden until we get there.
30:17I can't.
30:19If I kill him, I have to...
30:20I have to do something.
30:22No, Dash.
30:23Dash, 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.
30:36You 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,
30:44stump both his ends in a suit.
30:45Pass and pass.
30:48How about we go with my plan instead?
30:50Rob a bunch of rich kids that go to my school?
30:53Who wants a Rolex?
30:56You better not be lying, kid.
30:59Your dad is out of free passes.
31:01Okay.
31:03Let's go.
31:08Dash would never knowingly put someone in danger.
31:10So we tracked 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?
31:29She's an up-and-coming it girl.
31:32Her new project's getting Oscar buzz.
31:34Yeah?
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 go find out what the landfill tastes like.
31:44Out.
31:50Stay with Gus until I give you the signal.
31:51Alright?
31:55Man, for what it's worth, your dad 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.
32:03Well, if you're the ghost of my future self, I 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 don't want to.
32:53No problem.
32:54I'll just shoot you.
33:01Who dance?
33:02What?
33:02Why?
33:03Whoa.
33:04It's even bigger on the inside.
33:06See, 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 jerseys.
33:20Hey, hey.
33:20Whoa, whoa.
33:20Those whiskey bottles worth like 500 each.
33:22I'm just gonna grab a couple.
33:23Show me.
33:25Alright.
33:30How about this?
33:32The Merlot really?
33:33No, dude.
33:33Those two are worth way more.
33:44Alright, alright.
33:46Alright.
34:02Let's go.
34:18Hey, where's the jewelry?
34:20Closet.
34:22All right.
34:24Hey, hey, stay here.
34:30Okay.
34:36I can't believe you brought them to my house.
34:38I panicked, okay?
34:39They were going to kill my dad.
34:41Besides, you weren't supposed to be here.
34:43I would never 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.
35:07Your 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 going to 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, you know?
35:28When it's convenient for me.
35:30Like, I want to be better.
35:32Like, I really do.
35:32I think about it all the time.
35:35Well, not all the time.
35:37It's not the heart of the problem, really.
35:39I just got to be better.
35:40The kid deserves a role model, not the flaming hot mess I am on a daily basis.
35:47It feels really good to come clean about this, you know?
35:49It's kind of cathartic.
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, you 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, all right?
36:03Let's go.
36:03There's a gold bar in that bedside table.
36:05Yeah, right.
36:06I'm serious.
36:07But if you want to leave it, like...
36:09All right, stay right here.
36:11Oh, oh.
36:17Get back.
36:19Drop it.
36:22Come on, get up.
36:25Hey, you doing okay?
36:27Physically.
36:29There, get this.
36:33Thanks.
36:35And thanks for trying to save me.
36:37Yeah.
36:38Anytime.
36:39Oh.
36:40Thank God.
36:41Although, I knew it was all going to be all right.
36:44Hey, um, maybe 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 selfish, so 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 sick of it.
37:03I'm done with you.
37:05Forever.
37:06What?
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.
37:21Well, I hope you've kept your weekends clear, because now you've got 27 trials you're going
37:25to need to prepare for.
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.
37:41Wow.
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.
37:54No, 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 time to be different.
38:08I was going to buy a dash of car.
38:10With the tiger bear money.
38:11I looked to make up for lost time, you know?
38:14But he's right.
38:15I screw everything up.
38:17He'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, the best thing you can
38:36do for Dash is just leave him the hell alone.
38:40I've made all these mistakes, but I've made them mine.
38:45I've made all these mistakes, but I've made them mine.
38:49What were you thinking?
38:51I'm fine.
38:52Thanks for asking.
38:53Do you know how close you were to becoming a missing person yourself?
38:56If she would have 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.
39:08I see that now.
39:10It'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
39:24job.
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 want to talk about anything?
40:22Uh, 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 work.
40:39Maybe even because of what your father's put you through.
40:43Now, I know you know that you're not him in any...
40:46any way, shape, or form.
40:49But I also know that family pain is emotional and not intellectual.
40:59I'm just trying to say, um, if 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.
41:16Twice 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.
41:29Smart man.
41:31Smart man.
41:32Smart man.
41:36Smart man.
41:46Smart man.
41:47Smart man.
42:05Damn it.
