00:00He'll kill me if I ruin the surprise.
00:02It's not a waffle truck, 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.
00:30Let's see what we got.
00:30Pats and bats.
00:32Infrared camera.
00:34Breaching tools.
00:35I am.
00:36Two 32 inch screens.
00:38Yeah.
00:38Wow.
00:39Can I be watch commander?
00:40No.
00:41But you are riding with me today.
00:42Oh, please.
00:43Show them droning.
00:44Oh, yeah.
00:45Check this out.
00:54Isn't he cute?
00:55She.
00:56Really?
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.
01:10Damn it.
01:12He's playing Tim's Pump-Up Jazz.
01:14Down.
01:15No, no, no, no.
01:16Stop.
01:16Stop.
01:17Stop.
01:18You know what you're doing tonight.
01:21To tell you now that we're gonna get down.
01:25I'm gonna shake it down.
01:27It's not gonna be as easy as you think.
01:29Based on this morning's demonstration, I'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 when you land at the scene.
01:40Even if you stay in the SUV.
01:41Super Shop.
01:42Uh, it's a, it's a working thing.
01:50Good morning.
01:51Good morning.
01:52Alright, listen up.
01:53We're gonna 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's the boss showing up to their calls, second guessing their every move.
02:06That is not my intention, okay?
02:08Nothing has to change.
02:09I just put wheels on my office.
02:11While we work out the details, Officer Nolan will be riding with me to help facilitate the transition.
02:16Any questions?
02:18Can I pick a playlist?
02:21It's a dumb question.
02:23Alright, second order of business.
02:24Officer Juarez will be on temporary duty assignment with 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?
02:37Alright, I have some updates from the night shift.
02:38This missing person's really not bad.
02:42Detective Desmond has a reputation.
02:44Like a Harper reputation?
02:46No.
02:48Opposite.
02:49Last day at the DA's office.
02:51Excited?
02:52I'm relieved.
02:53When the DA had one foot in retirement, now that Vivian's DA elect, she's gonna have free reign.
02:57Well, none of that will matter once you quit and open a private practice in Malibu with a view of
03:01the ocean.
03:02Uh, with that commute, you'd never see me again.
03:04Well, in my dream, I also work in Malibu.
03:07I have a robot helicopter that flies the kids to school.
03:10And a pony.
03:11Well, sorry to kill another one of your dreams, but I already reached out to my old landlord, and the
03:15only view from that office is to eat the open place on the first floor.
03:17Oh, before you go, make sure you pass off my cases to 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.
03:28Good 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 when you threw your hat in the ring.
03:38It's nothing personal.
03:39In fact, I agree with you on a lot of the issues, and I know that together we can take
03:44the DA's office in a positive direction.
03:48You're not gonna fall for that, are you?
03:50No.
03:50I was about to hand in my resignation letter.
03:52Well, she won't accept it.
03:53With Cosgrove, Garcia, and Martin already out, she 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.
04:07That should have been me facing Vivian.
04:08You were handed a poison chalice.
04:10I drank from it willingly.
04:12So...
04:12How's Logan?
04:13He's good.
04:14You know, he just got another chip.
04:16He's been clean now almost four months.
04:19That's great.
04:21Uh, what about you?
04:22You gonna do the Rothwell and 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 to change the culture from within.
04:33To ensure that justice, not punishment, was our paramount virtue, remember?
04:38It's a very inspirational message that just lost by 23 points.
04:42Look, Vivian ran on tough on crime.
04:45She's gonna deliver.
04:46Yeah, which is why the city needs people like us here.
04:48Now more than ever.
04:50Look, we still can make a difference.
04:52Sean.
04:52You're here already.
04:53Let's work together one last time.
04:55If at the end of the day you still wanna quit, I won't stand anyway.
04:58What?
04:59This job is where ambition goes to die.
05:02Wait, what?
05:03Missing persons.
05:04It's not a real department.
05:06It's a halfway house for cases on the way to real departments.
05:10That's a lot of reports for a fake department.
05:12Ninety percent of these cases will solve themselves.
05:15Teenager just needed to blow off steam.
05:16A wife went on a bender, came home when she sobered up.
05:19Kid fell asleep playing hide and seek.
05:21Well, I've been on patrol for three years.
05:23I know most missing persons reports go nowhere, but there are people in the stack who are victims of real
05:29crimes.
05:30Crimes with their own departments, like trafficking or homicide.
05:33Sorry to interrupt.
05:35Homicide wants some graph case.
05:37Fisherman found the body.
05:38Looks like murder.
05:39Rest in peace.
05:43Okay.
05:45Obviously, you know the job way better than I do, but it wouldn't hurt to look through the case files,
05:50see if there's anyone we can help.
05:53Knock yourself out.
06:00This thing drives like a dream.
06:03In these seats.
06:05Ten minutes in a regular shop, my ass is barking.
06:07Well, don't get used to it.
06:08You're just here while I work out the kinks.
06:11Once Penn is back from training, you're back in the shop and I'm on my own.
06:14I have a 415 at Fifth and Western.
06:16RP reports two shirtless men circling each other.
06:20Seven out of 100, two blocks away shows responding.
06:22You sure?
06:23Sounds like your basic alcohol-fueled slugfest.
06:26Yeah, I have to test response times and even the most basic of calls.
06:32Captain'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, you guys break it up.
06:47Sorry, he was just called into a meeting. Can you hold just a minute longer?
06:50Thanks.
06:50No, I'm at...
07:02Sorry to keep you waiting.
07:04No problem, sir.
07:05We're getting a lot of complaints about vagrants in Stoner Park.
07:08I'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.
07:14I'll have additional units in the area starting today.
07:17Okay.
07:17Uh, is that it?
07:18One more thing.
07:19I just want to say your tireless commitment to justice and the people of this...
07:23Thank you, sir.
07:25Hey, hey, hey, hey.
07:27Hey, hey, hey.
07:28Good job, sir.
07:29You 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,
07:38Sadie never misses visitation with her kid on the first Tuesday of every month.
07:44Walk with me.
07:46Reporting party's address?
07:48Uh, 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 miss things like supervised
08:04child visitations.
08:06Well, I know.
08:07Well, I think it's worth investigating, so what's our first step?
08:10Why are you so gung-ho, Officer Boris?
08:13And don't just 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.
08:49I appreciate the reminder.
08:53How did Greg make it look so easy?
08:55Well, 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.
09:03But then, Lucy moved in.
09:07You know what?
09:07I take it back.
09:10Hey, Dash.
09:11Everything 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 TID gets here and we turn him over.
09:29Kenneth Morris.
09:30K-Dog?
09:31For real?
09:32Uh, Kenny's my English teacher.
09:34Was my English teacher.
09:36Okay, so, uh, who found the body?
09:39Uh, Dakota.
09:39We're in fourth period together.
09:41But I didn't think it was real.
09:42She's always gossiping about something.
09:45Last 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 got 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 originally.
10:15Uh, no, Dakota said CJ told her about it, who heard about it from Ilya and Autumn, who might have
10:20heard 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 we order green juice or something?
10:34Your intermittent fest doesn't end until one.
10:36We can talk after that.
10:38No one is asking you to spy on your friends.
10:41No, we have hidden surveillance set up to capture candid conversations.
10:45Tight.
10:45Uh, but they're not my friends.
10:46No.
10:48How's my hair?
10:50Fine.
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 cruel instead of a feat of unparalleled
11:03engineering that redefined elegance and beauty in the ancient world.
11:07But I'm a little biased.
11:08Clearly.
11:10She's 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.
11:19So you're out of luck.
11:21Sorry.
11:22Yes.
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.
11:37Glam Squad's coming to my house.
11:38Well, we'll try to get you out in time for the full face shellacking.
11:41Do 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 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 LA 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?
12:24Oh, Kenny was such a sweetie.
12:26Even when I had to miss a lot of class last year, he was so chill about it.
12:30Why 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,
12:37harassment allegations 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.
12:50It 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.
13:00I 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 Ilya.
13:23But Ilya 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 CJ's phone.
13:30And given what happened on the school trip last year, it is super sketchy that he was DMing Lynette.
13:37Backup.
13:38Where do we think the rumor started?
13:40Nowhere.
13:41Like, everywhere.
13:42How 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.
13:56My 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 said they're
14:10the 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 other people counts
14:29as cheating.
14:30They haven't spoken to each other since, and word in the halls is that Zoe and CJ are the new
14:33Ick 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, so I
14:40put it from my head.
14:40But when I doubled back to check, it looks like she does follow him, but only with her Finsta.
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 account.
14:57And Lynette said that she hears somebody crying in one of the stalls, and she says that it's Reese because
15:02she recognizes her leather tabbies.
15:05Travis tells Paul in the parking lot that he heard about a dead body from some bitch in first period,
15:11and 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 been fighting for
15:21that 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, the 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.
16:13Right.
16:14You know, one of those cases, if they locked behind her, she could be trapped or too injured to crawl
16:19out.
16:19Yeah, but at this point, she's probably dead from dehydration.
16:24Wait, 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 date wrong.
16:56But hey, cheer up.
16:58At least you only wasted your own time.
17:03I am so sorry.
17:15Oh.
17:16Hey, 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 sewers.
17:30Okay, 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, one 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?
17:49Yeah.
17:55Hey.
17:58Oh, 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, I'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 the deck.
18:11So, we have 27 felony arrests, waiting prosecution.
18:16We just do not have the manpower to take them all to trial.
18:20Why?
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 two?
18:32This guy robbed a convenience store and the clerk had a heart attack.
18:34That is felony manslaughter at best.
18:36And 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.
19:01Apple Pruitt, she 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.
19:33I see what's going on.
19:35You said she lives in your building?
19:36Mm-hmm.
19:37Classic move.
19:39You take the case near your house so you can investigate it from your living room.
19:42When 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?
20:39Um, I think I may be taking a gap year.
20:42From your social media accounts, it seems like you're all about Yale.
20:46That 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.
21:43I waited and waited, and finally my mom came back.
21:50Just her, not him.
21:54And her hands were...
21:57She 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 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 all right?
22:29Yeah, 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.
22:37You would be a fool not to invest.
22:39Hit me up on socials.
22:40I will tell you more about it, okay?
22:42Hey!
22:43This is 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.
22:53Tiger Bear has one more investor signed on
22:55with 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.
23:02Tiger Bear Whiskey Tequila's 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.
23:19Uh, okay.
23:20Keep going.
23:21So, Dash was working out and, uh...
23:22Just 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-out.
23:40You know?
23:40Or Simzaa.
23:41We'll watch last week's UFC.
23:42Not a 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.
23:56Murder, too.
23:57It seems excessive.
23:58I mean, all you did was rob a convenience store.
24:01It wasn't your fault that the clerk had a heart attack.
24:04The man had end-stage heart disease.
24:06Now, a jury could see that as 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?
24:18There'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 right 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...
25:03I'm pretty sick.
25:06Do you mind if I come inside?
25:08Sure.
25:09Yeah, of course.
25:14I've actually been boxing up Apple's things all day.
25:17It's officially 30 days tomorrow.
25:20I just...
25:20I 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
25:30or cleaning.
25:31She sounds like a lot.
25:33Oh!
25:34I mean, don't get me wrong.
25:35She was...
25:36is...
25:37um...
25:38one of my favorite people.
25:39Just not the greatest at cohabitation.
25:41Right.
25:43And the last time you saw her was
25:45right before she left for Coachella?
25:46She left going,
25:47even though she had her issues before.
25:50I mean, bad drugs and aggressive guys.
25:53She...
25:53definitely had some scares.
25:55And you think that's what happened to her?
25:57I...
25:57I don't know.
25:59Um...
26:00I mean...
26:01I'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?
26:09Yeah, no problem.
26:09It's, uh...
26:10it's right over there.
26:16A quick sleeper could be done.
26:18It's right down,
26:25It's so beautiful.
26:26Hey.

38:27matter how many times they get their hearts broken unless you're willing to change and I mean really
38:33change best thing you can do for dash is just leave them the hell alone
