00:01What is Tim going to show us?
00:02He'll kill me if I ruin the surprise.
00:04It's not a waffle truck, I asked.
00:06Oh.
00:08Welcome.
00:08I wanted you guys to be the first to see my new office.
00:11Look, if I'm going to be more out on the street watch commander,
00:13I need to take my office with me.
00:15Is this the new interceptor utility vehicle?
00:17It is.
00:18700 horsepower, 8,000-pound towing capacity,
00:22level 4 ballistic door panels, dark mode,
00:25and 270-degree monitoring to analyze moving objects
00:28with potential threat levels.
00:29He calls it a super shop.
00:30That's a working title.
00:32See, we got bats and bats,
00:34infrared camera,
00:36breaching tools.
00:37I have.
00:38Two 32-inch screens.
00:40Woo!
00:41Wow.
00:42Can I be watch commander?
00:43No.
00:44But you are riding with me today.
00:45Oh, hey, show them droney.
00:47Oh, yeah.
00:48Check this out.
00:57Isn't he cute?
00:57Hey.
00:59Really?
00:59Yeah.
01:00Look, super shop makes the Batmobile look like a kitty toy.
01:03And I can control it all right here from my phone.
01:08See?
01:11Damn it.
01:12Whoa, whoa.
01:13Damn it.
01:15He's playing Tim's Pump Up Jazz.
01:17Down!
01:18No, no, no, no.
01:18Stop.
01:19Stop.
01:20Stop.
01:21Stop.
01:22Stop.
01:25Stop.
01:26That we're gonna get down.
01:28I'm gonna shake it down.
01:30It's not gonna be as easy as you think.
01:31Based on this morning's demonstration, I'm well aware.
01:34It's not just that you're taking the watch commander duties on patrol.
01:37You're also exposing yourself to chain of command confusion when you land at a scene.
01:42Even if you stay in the SUV.
01:44Super shop.
01:45It's a working thing.
01:52Good morning.
01:53Good morning.
01:54Good morning.
01:55All right, listen up.
01:55We're gonna do things a little different today.
01:58There'll be two supervisors out on the street.
02:01Sergeant Chen and myself.
02:04I know, I know, no one wants the boss showing up to their calls, second guessing their every move.
02:09That is not my intention.
02:11Okay?
02:11Nothing has to change.
02:12I just put wheels on my office.
02:14While we work out the details, Officer Nolan will be riding with me to help facilitate the transition.
02:19Any questions?
02:21Can I pick the playlist?
02:24It's a dumb question.
02:25All right, second order of business.
02:27Officer Juarez will be on temporary duty assignment with the Detectives Bureau.
02:31Did you choose your focus?
02:32Yes.
02:33Missing persons.
02:35Oof.
02:36You sure about that?
02:37Yeah.
02:38Your call?
02:39All right, I have some updates from the night shift.
02:41This missing person's really not bad.
02:44Detective Desmond has a reputation.
02:46Like a Harper reputation?
02:48No, um, opposite.
02:52Last day at the DA's office.
02:54Excited?
02:54I'm relieved.
02:55When the DA had one foot in retirement, now that Vivian's DA-elect, she's gonna have free reign.
03:00None of that will matter once you quit and open a private practice in Malibu with a view of the
03:04ocean.
03:04Uh, with that commute, you'd never see me again.
03:06Well, in my dream, I also work in Malibu.
03:10I have a robot helicopter that flies the kids to school.
03:13And a pony.
03:14Well, sorry to kill another one of your dreams, but I already reached out to my old landlord.
03:17And the only view from that office is the Ethiopian place on the first floor.
03:20Oh, before you go, make sure you pass off my cases to the right prosecutors.
03:24Daniels doesn't touch homicide.
03:25Give mine to Cosgrove. He is solid.
03:27That might be an issue. Cosgrove just quit. I gotta go.
03:30Good luck.
03:32Wesley, so good to see you.
03:33Yeah, right.
03:35I'm serious. No hard feelings on my end.
03:37Yeah, because you destroyed me.
03:38Well, exactly. I made good on the promise I made you when you threw your hat in the ring.
03:41It's nothing personal. In fact, I agree with you on a lot of the issues.
03:44And I know that together we can take the DA's office in a positive direction.
03:48Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
03:50You're not gonna fall for that, are you?
03:52No. I was about to hand in my resignation letter.
03:55Well, she won't accept it. With Cosgrove, Garcia, and Martin already out, she can't afford to lose anyone else.
03:59Martin quit?
04:00Keyed her car on the way out.
04:02A hero to us all.
04:04Come on.
04:07Hey, sorry about the election. That should have been me facing Vivian.
04:11You were handed a poison chalice.
04:13I drank from it willingly. So...
04:15How's Logan?
04:16He's good.
04:17You know, he just got another chip.
04:19He's been clean now almost four months.
04:22That's great.
04:23Yeah.
04:23Uh, what about you?
04:25You gonna do the Rothwell and Pierce thing?
04:26No, I'm, uh...
04:28I'm gonna stay here.
04:30And you should, too.
04:31Mm.
04:32Come on, Wes.
04:32You joined this place to change the culture from within.
04:35To ensure that justice, not punishment, was our paramount virtue. Remember?
04:40It's a very inspirational message that just lost by 23 points.
04:45Look, Vivian ran on tough on crime.
04:47She's gonna deliver.
04:48Yeah, which is why the city needs people like us here.
04:51Now more than ever.
04:52Look, we still can make a difference.
04:54Sean.
04:55You're here already.
04:56Let's work together one last time.
04:58If at the end of the day you still wanna quit, I won't stand any way.
05:01This job is where ambition goes to die.
05:05Wait, what?
05:06Missing persons.
05:07It's not a real department.
05:09It's a halfway house for cases on the way to real departments.
05:12That's, uh, that's a lot of reports for a fake department.
05:15Ninety percent of these cases will solve themselves.
05:17Teenager just needed to blow off steam.
05:19A wife went on a bender, came home when she sobered up.
05:22Kid fell asleep playing hide-and-seek.
05:24Well, I've been on patrol for three years.
05:25I know most missing persons reports go nowhere, but there are people in the stack who are victims of real
05:32crimes.
05:32Crimes with their own departments.
05:34Like trafficking or homicide.
05:36Sorry to interrupt.
05:38Homicide wants some graft case.
05:40Fisherman found the body, looks like murder.
05:42Rest in peace.
05:46Okay.
05:47Obviously, you know the job way better than I do, but it wouldn't hurt to look through the case files,
05:53see if there's anyone we can help.
05:55Knock yourself out.
06:03This thing drives like a dream.
06:05In these seats.
06:07Ten minutes in a regular shop, my ass is barking.
06:10But don't get used to it.
06:11You're just here while I work out the kinks.
06:13Once Penn is back from training, you're back in the shop and I'm on my own.
06:17I have a 415 at Fifth and Western.
06:19RP reports two shirtless men, sir.
06:21Ghost responding.
06:22You sure?
06:22Sounds like your basic alcohol-fueled slug vest.
06:26Yeah, I have to test response times and even the most basic of 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, you guys breaking?
06:45Can you hold just a minute longer?
06:46Thanks.
06:47No, I'm at...
06:59Sorry to keep you waiting.
07:00Uh, no problem, sir.
07:01We're getting a lot of complaints about vagrants in Stoner Park.
07:05I-I've got to say renaming it would be a strong start.
07:08It's important that people feel safe in public places.
07:10Couldn't agree more.
07:11I'll have additional units in the area starting today.
07:13Okay, uh, is that it?
07:15One more thing.
07:16Uh, just want to say your tireless commitment to justice and the people of this...
07:20Thank you, sir.
07:22Hey, hey, hey, hey.
07:24Good job, sir.
07:25You supervised the hell out of that.
07:27You're still here.
07:28And I think I found a workable case.
07:31Sadie Bell, 30, was reported missing last week,
07:34but according to her best friend Joe,
07:35Sadie never misses visitation with her kid on the first Tuesday of every month.
07:40Walk with me.
07:43Reporting party's address?
07:46Uh, 5206th Street.
07:47It's a homeless shelter.
07:48Joe is unhoused, meaning Sadie's unhoused.
07:50Not the most reliable bunch.
07:52On the other hand, sir, unhoused women are highly vulnerable to physical and sexual assaults.
07:57True, and they're also more likely to be substance abusers who miss things like supervised child visitations.
08:03I know.
08:04Well, I think it's worth investigating, so what's our first step?
08:07Why are you so gung-ho, Officer Morris?
08:09And don't just say the indefatigability of youth.
08:14Uh, my, uh, sister was abducted when I was a child, sir.
08:17I, uh, lived the fear of not knowing where a loved one is.
08:23Understandable.
08:24And quite noble.
08:25But I would caution you that the thousand files in my office
08:28are not an unending stack of potential happy endings.
08:31for the subset that are not just runaways or miscommunications.
08:36The endings are mostly heartbreaking.
08:42I haven't had a chance to review the reports, but it's at the top of my list.
08:46Okay, I appreciate the reminder.
08:50How did Greg make it look so easy?
08:51Oh, the scowl helped.
08:53Yeah.
08:54You don't want to bother that face with anything less than an absolute emergency.
08:57My scowl is legendary.
08:59It was.
09:00But then Lucy moved it.
09:03You know what?
09:04I take it back.
09:07Hey, Dash, everything all right?
09:09Hey, so, lesson for the future.
09:10Uh, if somebody asks you if you want to see a dead body, uh, say no.
09:15Dash, are you standing over a dead body?
09:18Yep.
09:22He's been here for at least a day.
09:24Won't know how long for sure until TID gets here and we turn him over.
09:27Kenneth Morris.
09:28K-Dawg?
09:29For real?
09:31Uh, Kenny's my English teacher.
09:32Was my English teacher.
09:34Okay, so, uh, who found the body?
09:37Uh, Dakota.
09:38We're in fourth period together.
09:39But I didn't think it was real.
09:41She's always gossiping about something.
09:43Last week, she told me she was quitting school
09:45because she landed some influencer brand deal with Pop-Tarts.
09:48Turns out it was just a regional campaign.
09:49No offense.
09:50It just doesn't seem like, uh, Coastwood is your scene.
09:53Oh, it's not.
09:54Uh, but my mom said I needed a strong senior year in order to get into a good college.
09:58So, she landed an office job here.
10:00That way I get a major break on tuition.
10:02Dad, not in the picture?
10:03No, he kind of lurks in the background like the Babadook, specializing in bad decisions
10:08and hot cougars.
10:10Right.
10:10Uh, so you said Dakota found the body originally.
10:13Uh, no, Dakota said CJ told her about it, who heard about it from Ilya and Autumn,
10:17who might have heard about it from somebody else.
10:20So, how many teenagers came out to the woods, saw a dead body, and did nothing about it except tell
10:26their friends?
10:27Unknown.
10:27But I bet they all took selfies with it.
10:29I'm starving.
10:31Could I order green juice or something?
10:33Your intermittent fest doesn't end until one.
10:35We can talk after that.
10:36No one is asking you to spy on your friends.
10:39No, we have hidden surveillance set up to capture candid conversations.
10:43Tight.
10:44Uh, but they're not my friends.
10:45Oh.
10:46How's my hair?
10:48Fine.
10:48Who were you trying to impress?
10:50No one.
10:51Autumn.
10:55She's pretty.
10:56It's like saying that the hanging gardens of Babylon were cool instead of a feat of unparalleled engineering that redefined
11:02elegance and beauty in the ancient world.
11:05But I'm a little biased.
11:06Clearly.
11:08She nice.
11:09Hey Dash, do you want to come to my premiere tonight?
11:12Uh, yeah, totally, I would love to.
11:14No, wait.
11:15My publicist said we already did our charity work for the year, so you're out of luck.
11:19Sorry.
11:22What are you premiering?
11:23The new LaPorte film.
11:24It's already getting Oscar buzz.
11:26Oh.
11:26Who do you play in the movie?
11:27Young Attic No. 2.
11:28No lines, but my featured reactions really carry the film.
11:32Oh, by the way, I have a hard-out at three glam squads coming to my house.
11:36Well, we'll try to get you out in time for the full-face shellacking.
11:40Do you have a parent or guardian with you?
11:41Oh.
11:43No, thank you.
11:44I was legally emancipated when I was 13, so I could, um, work adult hours on set.
11:50I don't need them here.
11:51Great.
11:52Let's interview you first.
11:54Awesome.
11:55Please tell me Jack won't be going there.
11:57It's not definite, but Jack's preschool is the feeder school for Coastwood.
12:02It would be an easy transition.
12:05Logistically, maybe, but emotionally, won't you die a little?
12:08Yes.
12:10But L.A. elementary schools are more competitive than Stanford, and having an easy path would
12:14save hundreds of hours of stress.
12:16Yeah, but then he'd be going to school with kids like these.
12:19That's where it falls apart.
12:20And what can you tell me about Morris?
12:23Oh, Kenny was such a sweetie.
12:24Even when I had to miss a lot of class last year, he was so chill about it.
12:28Why did you have to miss school?
12:29I was doing this indie project.
12:31We were supposed to premiere at Sundance, but then the director had all these, like, harassment
12:36allegations or whatever and got basically blackballed.
12:38And now my career has to suffer.
12:40Like, did Kenneth have any disagreements with other teachers, faculty?
12:44No.
12:45I really can't imagine anyone wanting to hurt Ken Ken.
12:48It wasn't traditionally attractive, sure, but that's no reason to be murdered.
12:52Right?
12:54Can I vape in here?
12:55I have a note from my therapist.
12:57He does.
12:58I have it right here.
12:59No.
13:00Who first told you about the body in the woods?
13:03It was Sushi Tuesday, so I was pretty laser focused on whether I wanted ahi or uni.
13:09I think I ended up getting both.
13:11Let's focus here.
13:14Where did you hear about the body?
13:15Well, I remember Autumn mentioning something earlier in the day when she was talking to
13:20Ilya.
13:21But Ilya said he had heard it from...
13:23Zoe.
13:23I guess she originally saw something about it in a DM from Lynette when she was going
13:28through CJ's phone.
13:29And given what happened on the school trip last year, it is super sketchy that he was
13:33DMing Lynette.
13:36Backup.
13:36Where do we think the rumor started?
13:38Nowhere.
13:39Like, everywhere.
13:40How are we further from figuring this out than when we started?
13:43I call for backup.
13:44Hi again.
13:45Thank God.
13:46A normal teenager.
13:48No offense, it's just your classmates tend to be...
13:51Overwhelmed by their own champagne problems.
13:53I get it.
13:54My dysfunction is a little bit more proletariat.
13:56Guess that's one way to put it.
13:58Yeah, I don't really hang out with them much outside of school.
14:00And that's not just because I didn't make Forbes 20 under 20, but it's definitely a factor.
14:04Well, we're not done with the interviews yet, but so far no one we have talked to has
14:08said they're the one who started the rumor.
14:10They all claim to have heard it from someone else.
14:12Right.
14:13So, Reese heard about it from CJ, who heard about it from Zoe, who saw it in a DM from,
14:18um...
14:19You said that Reese heard about it from CJ?
14:20That's what she told us.
14:22Uh, that doesn't make any sense.
14:23They got in a huge fight last week about, you know, whether or not sending nudes to
14:26other people counts as cheating.
14:28They haven't spoken to each other since, and word in the halls is that Zoe and CJ are the
14:32new it couple.
14:32Oh my God, yes.
14:33I was totally picking up on that vibe, but I saw that Zoe wasn't following CJ on Instagram,
14:38so I put it from my head.
14:39But when I double back to check, it looks like she does follow him, but only with her
14:43Finsta.
14:43With her Finsta.
14:44Yeah.
14:46Okay, this is, this is actually all starting to make sense.
14:49It is.
14:49Um, so Lynette and Emma, they went to the bathroom to do a fit check for their joint Instagram
14:55account, and Lynette said that she hears somebody crying in one of the stalls, and she says that
15:00it's Reese because she recognizes her leather tabbies.
15:02Travis tells Paul in the parking lot that he heard about a dead body from some bitch in
15:09first period, and who does he have first period with?
15:12Reese.
15:13And Dash heard about the body from Dakota, who is Reese's second best friend, but she
15:18has been fighting for that number one spot.
15:21So, I mean, she would do anything that Reese says.
15:24So if Reese told Dakota to lie about where she heard about the body?
15:28This is all coming back to Reese.
15:30Okay, so is Reese witness zero?
15:33Or is she the killer?
15:36Sadie!
15:43Yeah.
15:45Okay.
15:48You know, that night Sadie went missing, it was pouring rain and the shelter was full,
15:52so I'm thinking she called in here to stay dry and got trapped.
15:57A couple of months ago I found a bunch of guys living it up in an access tunnel.
16:02Electricity, Wi-Fi, the whole thing.
16:05They had the right idea.
16:07But you also have electricity and Wi-Fi.
16:09Yeah, but I have to pay for it.
16:11Right.
16:13You know, one of those gays, if they locked behind her, she could be trapped or too injured to crawl
16:17out.
16:18Yeah, but at this point she's probably dead from dehydration.
16:22Like what?
16:26Sadie!
16:27If you can hear me, make a sound!
16:32Ah!
16:34Ah!
16:37Ah!
16:40Ah!
16:41Ah!
16:41Desmond!
16:41Where are you?
16:42I'm inside a service tunnel looking for Sadie.
16:44I-I called the shelter.
16:45She showed up this morning.
16:46You're kidding.
16:47Well why didn't they call us?
16:48They never do.
16:49So she was fine this whole time?
16:51Yeah, it turns out that her friend had the visitation date wrong.
16:54But hey, cheer up.
16:56At least you only wasted your own time.
17:02I am so sorry.
17:15Oh, hey, Selina.
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.
17:29Okay, 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?
17:49Yeah.
17:57Oh, you're too kind.
17:59Yes, I'm really looking forward to working with you as well, Madam Mayor.
18:02Okay, bye-bye.
18:04Sorry.
18:05Been 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.
18:18Take 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 two?
18:31This 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?
18:41I pointed to the significant mandate voters handed me, and he agreed.
18:45Well, their lawyers are not going to agree to these terms.
18:48So...
18:48Make 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 reports 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.
19:26It's not exactly a smoking gun.
19:28Okay, listen.
19:29I 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.
19:43When 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.
20:00Yeah, 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. He couldn't deliver.
20:29If 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.
20:46That 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.
21:03We know that's not true.
21:06But you did tell Dakota, and Travis, and Lynette.
21:10You 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, so they went out back behind the school.
21:43I waited and waited, and finally my mom came back.
21:50Just her.
21:52Not 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.
22:14Well, at least I know why I was failing the class.
22:17Your mom wasn't bribing the teacher.
22:19Yeah.
22:19Then I never did any homework.
22:22Ah, listen.
22:22Your mom is stuck at school.
22:24Things are about as hectic over there as you can imagine, so your dad's gonna come take you home.
22:28Is that right?
22:29Yeah, it's fine.
22:30He shows up every six to eight months to 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?
22:41Hey, who's my guy?
22:44How you doing?
22:45Still haven't had that grocery yet, huh?
22:47I'm pacing myself.
22:48Okay, sorry I haven't been around much.
22:49Been working crazy hours.
22:51But, good news, Tiger Bear has one more investor signed 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's the whisky-less startup.
23:04It's gonna be huge.
23:05You should get in on the grand floor, champ.
23:07I'm telling you, an investment of 10 grand will triple by the end of the year.
23:10Guaranteed.
23:11You do know your son found one of his teachers dead behind the school gym today.
23:15Damn it.
23:18Sorry, sorry.
23:19Uh, okay.
23:19Uh, keep going.
23:20Uh, so Dash was working out and, uh...
23:22Just take me home.
23:24Will they have to excavate the passenger seat for 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, but we'll make it a pro app.
23:40You know?
23:40Or some Zah.
23:40We'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, it'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.
24:00It wasn't your fault that the clerk had a heart attack.
24:04The man had end-stage heart disease.
24:05Now, a jury could see that as extenuating circumstances.
24:09I mean, if the jury was blind, maybe they'd see that as a gang tattoo.
24:14But I don't have to risk that possibility if you just say yes to the plea.
24:17I mean, who cares?
24:18There's no precedent for a felony prosecution this severe.
24:21So what if our only witness has been charged with perjury and false accusations in two other cases?
24:26I mean, if you think you could do better at trial, you just push that plea deal right back at
24:30me.
24:52The music is nowhere near too loud.
24:55I'm Officer Juarez with LAPD.
24:57Yeah, I'm following your roommate, Apple Pruitt's case.
25:00Yeah, she hasn't come home, right?
25:01No.
25:02No.
25:03I'm-I'm really sick.
25:05Do you mind if I come inside?
25:07Sure.
25:08Yeah, of course.
25:14I've actually been boxing up Apple's things all day.
25:17It's officially 30 days tomorrow.
25:20I just-I need someone else in here to help me with this crazy rant.
25:24Not that Apple is great about paying.
25:26She doesn't believe in money or monogamy or cleaning.
25:31She sounds like a lot.
25:33Oh, I mean, don't get me wrong.
25:35She was-is, um, one of my favorite people.
25:39Just not the greatest at cohabitation.
25:41Right.
25:42And the last time you saw her was right before she left for Coachella?
25:46She left going, even though she had her issues before.
25:50I mean, bad drugs and 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, I-I'm just trying to be helpful.
26:02But 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.
26:16I'm-I don't know.
26:34Um, I don't know.
26:35It's a bit different.
26:36It's all about her bedroom.
26:37Yeah, I'm not.
27:05I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's not what you think.
27:09I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
27:13I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
27:56I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

34:41I panicked, okay?
34:42They were going to kill my dad.
34:44Besides, you weren't supposed to be here.
34:46I would never knowingly put you in danger.
34:48Because you have the huts for me.
34:50I have romantic intentions, yeah, but clearly you don't share them, so...
34:56It's not like you're not cute.
34:57You're just...
34:58Poor?
34:59Exactly.
35:05What are you doing?
35:06Looking for a gun.
35:08Oh, that's not a gun.
35:09Oh.
35:10Oh.
35:11Your parents are freaky.
35:12What the hell are you doing?
35:13Get away from there!
35:14Oh, no.
35:14Sorry.
35:16Sorry.
35:18I'm never going to be able to look at my parents in the eye again.
35:21Me neither.
35:23Hey, Andre wouldn't really hurt my kid, right?
35:25This is a scare tactic.
35:27I mean, I know I'm not a great dad, but I try, you know?
35:31When it's convenient for me.
35:33Like, I want to be better.
35:35Like, I really do.
35:36I think about it all the time.
35:38Well, not all the time.
35:40It's the heart of the problem, really.
35:42I just got to be better.
35:44The kid deserves a role model, not the layman hot mess I am on a daily basis.
35:50Feels really good to come clean about this, you know?
35:52It's kind of cathartic.
35:53When the hell did you get here?
35:55Where's Dash?
35:56Let's go.
35:57No, she's staying here.
35:58She hasn't seen your face, so you're in the clear.
36:00Just, you can do whatever you want to be.
36:02Just let her go.
36:02Hey, man, you got balls, kid.
36:04Unlike your father, but she cannot stay here, all right?
36:06Let's go.
36:06There's a gold bar in that bedside table.
36:08Yeah, right.
36:09I'm serious.
36:10But if you want to leave it, like...
36:12All right, stay right here.
36:14Don't move.
36:20Get back.
36:22Drop it.
36:25Come on, get up.
36:28Hey, you okay?
36:30Physically.
36:31Yeah, give me this.
36:34Come here.
36:35Ow.
36:37Thanks.
36:38And thanks for trying to save me.
36:40Yeah.
36:41Anytime.
36:41Oh, thank God.
36:45Although, I knew it was all going to be all right.
36:47Hey, um, maybe we don't tell your mom about this.
36:50You know, we just keep it a bro thing.
36:52Stop.
36:52So we can...
36:52Just stop.
36:54Everything that you do, everything that you say,
36:56is just so selfish, so toxic.
36:59You haven't done one fatherly thing for me in my entire life.
37:02All you care about is yourself, and I'm just sick of it.
37:06I'm done with you.
37:08Forever.
37:09What?
37:18So we met with all 27 defendants.
37:21It's the craziest thing.
37:23We tried our hardest.
37:24None of them would accept a plea deal.
37:25Not a one.
37:26Hmm.
37:27Well, I hope you've kept your weekends clear,
37:28because now you've got 27 trials you're going to need to prepare for.
37:31Hmm.
37:33About that.
37:35I quit.
37:36And I'd say best of luck,
37:37but I hope you fail spectacularly.
37:40Sorry, Sean.
37:41I just can't.
37:41No, no worries.
37:43I can't either.
37:45I quit, too.
37:46Ah.
37:47Hey, what do you think of the law firm of Del Monte and Evers?
37:49Well, you haven't worked a day in your life as a defense attorney.
37:52Evers and Del Monte.
37:54Turn to the right.
37:56Way ahead of you.
37:57Not my first radio.
37:59Now we just need your clothes for evidence,
38:01and then, uh,
38:02for you to go.
38:04After everything that happened?
38:06The DA may still press charges,
38:08but it was pretty clear you were under duress.
38:11I really wanted this town to be different.
38:13I was going to buy a dash of car
38:15with the Tiger Bear money.
38:16I looked to make up for lost time, you know?
38:19But he's right.
38:20I screw everything up.
38:22He's better off without me.
38:24Probably.
38:26I've had some experience with bad fathers
38:28and the love the sons feel for them,
38:31no matter how many times they get their hearts broken.
38:34And unless you're willing to change,
38:36and I mean
38:38really
38:39change,
38:40the best thing you can do for Dash
38:41is just leave him the hell alone.
38:53What were you thinking?
38:56I'm fine.
38:57Thanks for asking.
38:58Do you know how close you were
38:59to becoming a missing person yourself?
39:01If she would have succeeded in killing you,
39:02how would I have known?
39:03First thing she'd do is destroy your phone.
39:05So when I pulled to your last known location,
39:07it would be your building.
39:09So to me and the world,
39:11you were home and then you vanished.
39:13I see that now.
39:15It's just I figured I'd stop by
39:16and ask a few questions.
39:17We have protocols for a reason.
39:21Yes, sir.
39:23I let my best intentions
39:25obscure my judgment,
39:26proving I still have a lot
39:28to learn about this job.
39:30No, but if I can be so bold
39:32as to ask a favor.
39:38You can ask.
39:40I remain undaunted.
39:43So if a file comes across your desk
39:45that gives you a feeling,
39:46call me.
39:47I am happy to run down
39:49any lead I can for you,
39:50free of charge.
39:56Deal.
39:58And for what it's worth,
40:01I'm glad you're okay.
40:18Your dad's gone
40:19and your mom's on her way.
40:21Cool.
40:24You want to
40:25talk about anything?
40:27Uh, not really.
40:28I think I'm a little
40:29talked out
40:30for once.
40:32Understood.
40:36You're not at the risk
40:36of sounding overly earnest.
40:39You're a very special young man.
40:42Despite or
40:44maybe even
40:45because of what
40:46your father's put you through.
40:48Now, I know you know
40:49that you're not him
40:50in any
40:51any way, shape, or form.
40:54But I also know
40:56that family pain
40:56is
40:58emotional
40:59and not
41:01intellectual.
41:04I'm just trying to say,
41:05um,
41:07if you ever need a reminder
41:07of this conversation,
41:09you have my number.
41:12Thanks.
41:14And just to be clear,
41:15you're saying
41:15I can call you
41:16every morning
41:17at the crack of dawn
41:18just to tell me I'm awesome?
41:19No.
41:20Every other morning?
41:21Twice a week,
41:22final offer.
41:23I can live with that.
41:25If you can live
41:26with unlimited text,
41:27DMs,
41:27and social media shout-outs.
41:29Just the calls?
41:31Okay.
